Worst play of the game?

Re: Worst play of the game?

ISU PA announcer on Rennie getting stopped at the LOS: Rennie, nowhere to run, nowhere to hide! The PA announcer! Also yelling First Down! with the fans. And for the trifecta, It's third down, make some noise Cyclone fans!

Bush.

I don't think our announcer is that much different "It's another Panther (first down)" . In fact, I would like to have him try to get the crowd more involved on third down plays. Let's make it home field advantage in all aspects.

I agree....however, I'm still not happy with our sound system. For some reason, I can't make out everything Mr. Justis is announcing over the PA.

That's because the UNIDOME sound system was installed by Charlie Brown's teacher.

But PR doesn't shout 'First Down' through the PA system. I just thought it was a little much, especially the editorializing while calling a play.

PR has been told in past years to be careful and to try and be as neutral as possible. Make sure you read that right. I did not say he was told to be completely neutral. But I feel that what the ISU announcer was doing was going way over the top, and it was annoying myself and everyone around me at the game on Saturday.

PR saying the first down thing in the Dome... he was told to do that by administrators. Some people like it - some people don't. Can't please everyone.

The more annoying thing is when Bob is making an announcement over the PA system while the band is playing a song (during a timeout or between quarters). You can't understand what he is saying over the music. They need to coordinate better because neither is really understood, at that point it's only noise and it's very unprofessional. Maybe you could pass the word B-a-P!

Whats more annoying is when the band is playing and, well, when the band is playing.

Honestly, we had a good laugh when both bands were playing at the same time Saturday night. We thought it was a game of "mine is bigger than yours".

I know that's not what you meant, but it reminded me of the competing bands.

Believe me, he's well aware of this! Again, some of this is out of his control. He's told to read certain things at certain times and is told to get a certain amount of announcements in by a certain point. The powers that be above him need to work out the kinks with the band. He just does what he's told and when he's told!

Re: Worst play of the game?

Let's just hope the band has figured out not to play once we break the huddle on Saturday. Otherwise, I nominate the student section to take care of the problem.

You seen to know a lot about him BAP, do you know him personally?

The problem is that the band thinks people are there to see and hear them just as much as people are there to see the football game.


I'd be okay without the band there.

He pays me to represent him.
