Wasn’t the library. Was where the women gymnastics team had their meets and student activity building.

I think he was third all-time as far as Tennessee games called on TV. A lot of great SEC football Saturday nights with that guy. I preferred him to Verne to be quite honest.
He also had some great basketball calls for the Big 12.

Verne wasn't even in his league calling CFB games.
Verne was good at golf though. The speed of CFB was just a bit much for him IMHO.

Saturday SEC nights growing up were always fun. RIP

Sad news for us SEC fans. He was the defacto voice of SEC TV football.

Grew up listening to him call the games. RIP sir

Keith Jackson's gone, Larry Munson is gone, and now Ron Franklin too. Guess that means no volume at all from here on out at my house.

The incidentthat got Ron fired.
No. That was from 2005. He was fired in 2010 because horseface Jeannine Edwards couldn't help sticking her horse face where it didn't belong.

Fired for calling out two women who had no clue what they were talking about.
