Matt Davison Now Associate AD for Football

[Sparker]

If Matt is really gone?  Don't see him on staff.  Don't you need to have some type of coaching degree or certification?  Plus, sorry, Matt is not Keith Williams, or any other great WR coach.

I have said a few times that Matt may have cost himself a job with some of his comments at the end of games.  I agreed with everything he said, and he was 1000000% spot on.  It is just something that you probably can't say if you are employed be the University.  His comment at the end of the Iowa game, saying "I can't watch this CRAP anymore"....he quickly apologized and backpedaled.  Just stuff you want to say, but can't in his position.

If he is really good friends with SF he might have already known he wouldn't need the radio job. He might fit somewhere behind the scenes. One of those analysts or something?

He also might not want to have to call games when his buddy is the coach.

Who knows, but I agree with what you're saying.

I think they'll find a place for him. The majority of his career notwithstanding, the Flea Kicker, Immaculate Reception, whatever you want to call it, cements a place for him somewhere in/around Memorial Stadium, given its importance in winning that last title.

 

[San Diego Husker]

Maybe he caught on with the B1G network?  I know he has done some games in the past.

I could easily see Davison rolling into some type of admin role and having a Paul Myers-esqe career.  I agree with @Sparker and @HANC that Davison would probably prefer to not have to be openly critical of Frost and Davison was walking a very fine line as a university employee towards the end of this year with his comments.  It might be best for all parties involved if he shifted to a different role within the university.

Sharp is awful.   Without Davison I don't think I could listen.   I don't get the games on TV so it will be tough.

I guess I don’t find Sharp that bad but I have spent much of my life hearing him call ballgames.  With me being from Kansas, I remember him plenty as the voice of Kansas State during Snyder’s hey days.  Took over for Mitch Holtus (Voice of the Chiefs). 

Would be sad not to hear Matt but would hope he would still be involved with Husker athletics.

Sharp is the only good thing about the radio broadcast.

Sharp is that you? 

 

[Stone Cold]

If this is true i will be honestly sad and will hunt him down to thank him for me hearing him on the radio.  The thing about him is that you can hear the passion in his voice.  I heard it the first time when Alex Henry made the kick.  You could just here the passion he had for this team and i will honestly miss that.

This the shortest post you’ve ever had.

I happen to think Sharp is fantastic.

 

[Sgt Red]

I like Sharp too. He does a good job. 

 

[Jeremy]

I like Sharp, definitely more than Jim Rose, and I'd say he's somewhat better than Swain. I may be in the minority, but I miss the heck out of Pavelka's calls.

Dang this sucks, Davison was great.

 

[ScawFraw]

where's a source for this info?  can't find anything.

I can't either. 

I think the first I heard it was here somewhere in the SF Megathread or another similar thread around the Minnesota game.  

I was listening to the BB game Sunday  and Kent P. mentioned something of the sort when referring to the fact that Matt D. would be joining him for the Boston College game Wednesday night.
