For a moment I was quite confused thinking, how many times does KJ pass away?

Then I realized...he passes away every time an MGoPoster fails to do a site search before posting.

"The last time Brian Griese ran that far, his Daddy was chasing him with a stick!"---Keith, after a 40-yard scramble by Brian against Penn State in 1997; his analyst, of course, was Brian's father, Bob Griese.

In all seriousness I would have loved to have heard Jackson call the Rose Bowl vs Bama and the Title game vs Washington.  Only think that could have made this even better than it already was.

Particularly ironic is that the next story down on the OP's circa 2018 link is:

Michigan receives notice of allegations from NCAA related to recruiting and impermissible coaching

Sheesh...!

I count myself fortunate to have grown up in an era of great announcers, who JUST CALLED THE GAME, and great color commentators, who provided interesting facts (not a bunch of half-baked opinion).

The down side is that it makes listening to games these days a bit like sitting in a room full of fingernails dragging down a chalkboard.

Thank you Keith, Al, Ernie, and the rest. You are the standard.
