Gary, truly an unbiased sports announcer if I've ever heard one.

Brad Nessler with Todd Blackledge were the best together.

For all the hate he gets. Gary Danielson is still the best.

Yes, everyone on here hates him because he is blunt (modern day Howard Cosell) but he is a great student of football and he knows his stuff.
The problem isn't his knowledge of X's and O's, it's that he won't stick to that. He will start speculating when someone gets hurt with no medical knowledge at all. Worse, he will start opining about a penalty that either was or wasn't called and keep talking about it for multiple plays later. He'll even have his rules expert explain that he's wrong and STILL keep talking about it. In the 2012 SECG Aaron Murray threw a pick, was trotting toward the guy with the ball and got clobbered by a LB. Danielson thought is was "unnecessary roughness to the QB" was wrong to start with but he kept talking about for the rest of the game, bringing it up every time Murray made a bad play, "he might be injured".
My favorites are Blacklege, Cubelic, and McElroy but really it's just anybody but Danielson. Good riddance. Thanks for letting me rant.
