I have been listening to the ACC morning show on their ACC channel. Mainly because it hosted my Mark Packer and Wes Durham. It has been really good. So I hope they pick the right hosts for the Big 12 channel. SEC channel is the usual espn suspects. PAC 12 channel is pretty good.

Really like Tom Luginbill - always thought his dad was a pretty good coach and seemed like a nice guy also, but Tom is definitely one of my favorite sports radio personalities.

Packer is the best. I like Childers/Neuheisel as well.

was the same way, until I signed up for it. was shocked how much I like it. Saturdays are awesome because the extra channels carry the team broadcasts for certain college games. I'm a radio fan, so the local commercials in breaks, the coverage, etc., its cool to hear.

 

[Mean Purple]

Packer is the best. I like Childers/Neuheisel as well.

Feel the same. When we do road trips during a week day, we hit the road before the 9 am show to hear Childers and Neuheisel. Really fun shows.

Probably Mark May and anyone else that is an idiot and hates the Big 12.

 

[Opintel]

Out voted...I yield.

Man, if you're talking Tony, that guy is terrible, and I mean TERRIBLE. It's embarrassing, whenever he's a guest on a show I just can't listen, he struggles to even put a coherent sentence together. Sounds like a total meathead. I hope you're talking about another Casillas.

 

[HG73]

You teased me with your thread title and now I feel violated.

Does that make me a Democrat?

 

[LeagueCityFrog]

Is this XM channel 199 or 200? And when does the programming start?

Eh. Just more ESPN schtick. They've already ruined what was a decent College Football channel in the Redneck and Peckerwood Channel by buying it and changing it to ESPNU. Now it's all the same narratives and b.s. Oh, and the Wizards of Smart in programming who put on Gameday on Saturday mornings on the radio. Yeah. That's brilliant programming...

ESPN ruins everything it touches, and they are seemingly sparing no expense to retain their hammerlock on all things Collegiate Sports.
