Probably because of his praise of Joe Mixson in the Sugarbowl broadcast. He got a lot of backlash on Sirius XM

Not saying get rid of Munson, I'd just like to see him pair up with Musberger for a season. It would be awesome !

That's what I will always associate with Brent Musburger.

Wasn't it him who coined the term "Most Exciting 30 Seconds
Jan 25, 2017, 11:11 AM
|
|
in College Football"?
I know he loved getting to Clemson and calling the games. I remember him and #### Vermeil down at the Esso Club for a home game when I was a student.
Great guy. Hate to see him go.

I roll down the hill a little faster than that - running on hills has become too hard at my age.

As soon as I heard him say "Holy Johnny Unitas" in reference to some freshman QB making an average play this past bowl season

It was some freshman QB who made a pretty average play.....comparing him to Johnny U was outrageous

Visited Tiger Band practice in 1991

Before the GT game, I think? Anyway, I thought it was really neat that he stopped by the band and spoke to us for a couple minutes. Always thought highly of him for that.

Brent climbed the tower, told us how great we were, said "Go Clemson," and told us to meet him across the street at the Esso Club. LOL

Something something Katherine Webb...

Nothing will beat him proclaiming the most exciting 25 seconds in college football for me, but him going on and on about Ms. Webb while the national championship is being played was right up. I bet none of the announcers were searching the stands during the game this year. All eyes on that amazing game.

""Even Georgia had to take a peek""
Brent is one of the best announcers to listen to and call a game.
Not going to be the same.
