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. 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. 1 Quote Link to comment

BartonHusker Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 He left his gig on the radio purely to be on one of his best friends staff. Good for him and Nebraska. Quote Link to comment

Hayseed Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 What’s the name of Matt’s bar in the Haymarket? If I don’t die from this bronchitis I’ll have to go down there. Quote Link to comment

Maybe he had an idea he was going to have something lined up with Frost and it took a filter off. I know I noticed him being brutally honest about Riley down the stretch. On one hand, I appreciate the honesty, but another part of me cringed because it was unprofessional & Riley was and is such a class act. MD seemed really pumped at the weight room meeting and apparently had a hand in bringing Frost home. I bet he's got a job lined up. Davison is getting a job as an Assistant AD in support of football with NU. Quote Link to comment

Was this announced today? I didn't know it was confirmed. Pretty cool for him. I really like the way Frost let everyone know this is going to be a team effort. What a 180 from Bo thinking he knew better than everyone else. Finally doing it the right way. 1 Quote Link to comment

BIGREDIOWAN Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 I've just plain deleted several posts that somehow got on a politics kick. Keep the thread on track please, we've got an area on the board where you can discuss those things. 5 Quote Link to comment
NM11046 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 With all due respect BRI, (and perhaps there were posts after what I saw), but the question was posed as to why he was leaving broadcasting, and people wondered whether his political comments during shows might be part of it, in addition to the comments about the fb program. Seems a big aggressive to delete contributions by members when indeed they were on topic. 1 Quote Link to comment

The Dude Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 (edited) I know I'm late to the party in watching the press conference, but it sounds like Davison was key in landing Frost. Good job, Matt! And congrats on the new job! Edited December 4, 2017 by The Dude Quote Link to comment
