With Sharp, you hardly even know the down and distance although he is better in that than Kent P was. I liked Kent because he was enthusiastic and got excited. Sharp has, last couple years, added a little Husker side but in general he is generic and boring. He has very little real insight into the game, the strategy, etc. He is monotonous. I also listened to him on Kansas State games when he was there and knew his voice when he somehow was picked up by NU from there.RedDenver said:Sharp is the only good thing about the radio broadcast.
I want the announcer to spend more time 'painting the picture of what's happening (formation, defense, etc) I realize it is tough when the snaps come faster etc but there is very little real analysis of 'what's going on' in schemes, etc. As a result, you have to listen to the game, then formulate your opinion on the O line, etc based on the stats only. Davision tended to give his personal opinions, (he is the color guy - sideman so that's his job) and I liked his opinions. It was informed and so on. I am afraid Sharp was probably a tennis player or something and doesn't seem to understand the game of football and throws out the most elemental phrases now and then but otherwise, not much real insight. Boring and uninformative is Sharp in a nutshell.
