Need a phonetic spelling for DJ and Tyson...


Oct 30, 2020, 9:02 AM

I hate getting people's names wrong...so I want to learn it correctly.

Tua is going to start for the Dolphins, and most announcers still butcher his name. I am pretty sure there is no letter n in Tua's name, yet I hear it ever week.

Brad Brownell: Only Larry freaking Shyatt has a WORSE overall winning percentage among Clemson basketball coaches since 1975. Let that sink in. It's Larry Shyatt & then Brad Brownell.

Someone below posted a good explanation of DJ's name. Another way to hear it is to search for the signing day celebration and listen to Dabo say it. He is spot on.

Now, I gotta confess, when I hear his name I immediately think of David Seville and the Chipmunks (I told y'all, I'm old.) This is the song that got Alvin and the Chipmunks started.

And Taisun I say:

Far-ma-SUE-ta-kuhl



Hope this helps - I'm sure it will help.
