I’ve seen a few comments here about him but no context. What’s the story?

Acted like a total bitch when A&M kicked the winning field goal.

He was being salty on air. Said something to the effect of “A&M will have to pay the conference 250K. Anyone who had a seat is no longer in it.”
This came right after he refused to mention A&M kicking a game winning FG.

When the kick went through, he didn’t even say anything. He was silent for a good bit and went straight to complaining about the fans rushing the field lol

He might have actually forgotten about broadcasting it. He can give you every detail of the uniforms including the piping color on the pants leg and the "football shoes" as he refers to them.

Yeah it was posted on tRant yesterday I believe.

He just melted hard and went into little bitch mode refusing to say TAMU had won. It was great

I like that new guy that y'all have.

Stan White is still a little whining bitch, but the other guy calls a great game on the radio.

That's melting? Is society really this weak right now? He literally said before the kick he would let the crowd reaction tell the story...not the first time that's ever happened. This could be the biggest non-story ever "reported" on this site.

Mick is a homer, but entertaining. When UF and Bama played while I was driving back from Kyle Field, I made sure to find the UF broadcast rather than settling for listening to Eli Gold on the Sirius ESPN channel. Eli's voice and style just grates on me.

No - society isn’t weak. This guy getting paid to call the game is weak.

That’s a cop out and it’s not professional. I can see letting the crowd noise go for a few seconds - but this ain’t it. A&M made the kick and won the game, and he couldn’t bring himself to call it straight up. After all these championships…. That’s Weak.

I gotta say something on this call.


I LIKE IT

I like that he said nothing and let the crowd tell the story. He didn’t feel the need to pine on about anything to “make it his”.
