With Dave you didn’t k ow if it was a 20 yard sack for a loss or screen pass for a 50 yard TD.

All I know is “he is a touchdown.”

The rest is left up to you to figure out.

I met Dave South at his grandaughter’s birthday party.

It was at an outdoor venue, and I heard him talking to his family at another table. I told my wife “shhh, listen… I recognize that voice…” Son of a gun was Dave friggin South. Had to go in for a handshake.

Too bad you never heard Dave South and Dave Elmendorf.

These men defined homer.

Won’t dispute that, but it was their audience. I don’t mind homers at any school when it’s their broadcast. Homers make listening to the game more of a relationship than a business.

Dave South, though, was THE voice of Aggie sports for :something like 30 years. For an entire generation, that voice was just synonymous with the program.

One more lost “connection” aspect of college sports when these are no longer there.

Dave South was Liucci before Liucci.

He isnt the usual color guy but shows up kinda randomly. He is a former player. The regular color guy is worse.

As for OP, yes they are annoying. I say that as a fan.

Pretty sure they are clueless about baseball, umpiring, and anything outside of Aggie land

I gotta tell you, it cuts me to the core that some inbred Cajun doesn't like our announcers.

I don’t recall Dave South regularly calling Aggie fans idiots because they don’t hang out in the athletic department every day kissing arse like there’s no tomorrow.

I don't understand this . . .Liucci is a wannabe insider who gets rich off of a website. Dave South was a long-serving, comically bumbling play-by-play dude that got progressively worse at his job over time. His bad announcing was legendary.

"CAUGHT! . . . .dropped . . . . . an interception."

"Welcome back here to Olsen as we head to the bottom of the 6th with a score of 8-3 for your Aggies giving them a nice 4, 6, no 5 run lead"

"2nd and 6 at our own 30. there's 5 yards up the middle and nearly a first down . . . .that brings up 3rd and four."

"He's a Touchdown!"

He had a way of rambling over some irrelevant factoid and then dropping in at the end the other team scored.
