i used to like him. i grew up listening to packer and thacker do the ACC feature games. when he went national i couldn't stand listening to him. he used to beat up the ACC regularly and he played at Wake!

From the little i actually listened to him he didnt seem to like anyone. But the bigget issues i had was he would say things that were incorrect or he would toot his own horn with "I told ya so" so much that he would tell us "I told ya so" even when he was wrong. He simply made the game less enjoyable to watch and did not really educate the viewer which should be the primary goal of a broadcaster.
