These clowns we have nowadays couldn't hold his strap. He brought such charisma and tenacity to the booth.

He could make a Wake vs Duke game fun to watch.
Remember a few of his saying - "There's some pepper in those grits" Would also say some player "looks like a cyborg out there" after a particularly good play

He has a corporate consulting firm. Seems like he's more of a motivational speaker.
Could you imagine him calling a game with this year's DL?

I miss him so much. As someone else said, he made Wake vs. Duke entertaining.
I wish he could be hired on as part of the new ACC Network or something.
