    Maybe it's a taste thing. Now, I haven't heard him do baseball or basketball. Maybe he's not the everyday voice of the Dawgs or maybe he needs time in the saddle, I don't know. But for the broadcasts he's been a part of that I've heard, I like him.

    And Teddy is obviously not a pxp guy. Neither is Cramer. Tech needs to find a real pxp backup for Dave because these games are painful to listen to when Dave is out. Teddy is great as a coach's show host though.

    But most troubling of all are Tech's bush league CUSATV broadcasts. At least 2 of our baseball broadcasts did not work at all, and our MBB broadcasts are infuriating to watch because Tech has gotten lazy just showing the video board feed. Tech's CUSATV broadcasts of the biggest possessions of the UNT and Marshall games were showing our bench telling fans to MAKE SOME NOISE. Unacceptable. Our AD must get his act together. SideArm ought to take all these refunds resulting from Tech's incompetence out of Tommy's paycheck.
    The University isn't going to start holding Tommy accountable any time soon.

    Then we have to.

    My current LTAC pledge expires after May. And there is no guarantee that I am renewing it because the status quo with the current athletic adminstration isn't getting the job done. And I'm afraid that the real root of the problem might not have an office west of Tech Drive.

    Let's add that LaTechX app to the mix also - it's utterly useless

    I use CBS sports for football and basketball - unfortunately TECH baseball and softball are not supported on it

    I think it’s wrong to pile on Teddy. He loves Tech and will try to do whatever the Tech administration asks him to do.

    Yep. When I clicked on the LaTechX app for stats last weekend because our CUSATV wasn't working, the Tech-ASU stats link pulled up stats for ULL-SELA......

    Come on. Since when did admin decisions become immune from criticism? Obviously Teddy loves Tech and is a great asset to us. Nobody has said otherwise. The bottom line is Tech's admin should not put Teddy in a position where he's not good. The more Teddy hosts, podcasts, and writes the better. Teddy is great at all those things. The Teddy podcasts were an excellent addition this year. However, I think we all know he's not a pxp guy, and Tech shouldn't put him there. It's not fair to Teddy, and it's not best for the fans. Neither Teddy nor Cramer are pxp guys. Tech's admin should get a real pxp backup when Dave is out. That's all. And by posting that, you just extended this conversation about Teddy that was likely dead, in effect doing the exact opposite of what you wanted.

    Re: Tech Play by Play Radio

    As opposed to having no broadcast if they don't have someone else? Dave was in Florida, Cramer & Malcom weren't available. Neither was the guy that sometimes fills in for Dave on basketball sometimes who is pretty good at pxp. So you could say he was the 5th guy in line.

    I listened and while he's not Dave Nitz, I thought he was OK. I knew what was going on, just not as eloquently as Dave. I know I've heard a lot worse.

    Much of your post is in agreement with what I meant.

    I like Teddy's off beat broadcast calls -

    He will say when things are bad and stink - in his offbeat way

    And his "C'Ya!" - call is EPIC homage to those who know him and his work

    I love Teddy. What he lacks on PxP he makes up ten fold on color. He says things in ways that are unique and cannot be duplicated. His dryness doesn't lend itself to PxP and he definitely needs a crowd mic, but I would take him as a standin for Dave every now and again.

    He and Dave together are 100%. Not sure there are many schools around the country with a combination like that. Really lucky to have both.

    Speaking only for myself, I was not piling on. Well, I kind of started the pile in this thread, others piled on. But, I was merely expressing my opinion. I never said, have never thought he doesn't love Tech. I want what's best for Tech in all aspects. Nothing personal.

    No other school in the country has to resort to using cell phones to broadcast one or more games every single year in one sport or another.
