I have to get something off my chest about Don Munson.
Jan 8, 2020, 4:07 PM

Last week after I returned from Phoenix, the ACC channel on Sirius radio was replaying the Fiesta Bowl game. I've complained about this with my buddies time and time again, but I cringe every time he says the word "HASH." It absolutely drives me crazy. He says it on almost every play and when he does, it sounds like I do when I have a sinus infection and I'm hacking up a loogie. THAT IS ALL

I like listening to the Clemson radio broadcasts since I get some of the hometown flavor instead of listening to the same old tired SEC stuff on ESECPN. But one thing that drives me slightly nuts is when Don keeps on saying stuff like, "the tackle was made at the 21, but let's see where they mark it. No it's at the 22. Now they move it back to the 21." He does this sort of thing constantly. I appreciate that he's striving for accuracy. Why not just wait until they place the ball down and make one call?

Really can't stand him, his voice is very annoying, and yet he's the radio guy for so many sports and interviews. When it's him and Tahj I can barely understand a thing they say.

Castricone should have been made football play by play guy

He was really good, but was regulated to basketball when he should have been given a bigger role. Which is what he's doing at Washington. Not exactly sure why they would let one of the best announcers we've ever had leave after a couple years.

I like to turn down the sound and turn up the stereo. Any real fan can watch the game and understand it better without some talking head going on and on. You should try it - Rock & Roll Football.

Anything that comes out of his mouth is a no from me, can't stand his voice at all.

Most annoying thing to me is he pronounces the word “our” like the word “are”.

Is this the annual bash Don Munson tread? I guess some "Clemson Man" is looking for a job. Don does fine let it go.

Well you need to get over it, because all we’ve done is win since he took over.
I’d sleep every night on a bed of nails if we can keep what we have in football right now.

I know this post is about the radio broadcast and While I agree somewhat, it got me thinking about a few TV game analysts that worked our games. I’d rather listen to Munson than Orlovsky and McElroy any day hands down. I think they were given our games just too #### us off, lol.

I still have a problem with Munson when he picked against

Clemson against in Bama in our, I think, 1st playoff game against them. Cant recall which year it was, I just recall him saying he thought they would beat us.
I thought he should have been fired after that game.
