Shame Tom is very good and often clever, but on the bright side Collmus is very good and a pretty good guy too. Got very used to him over the past years at Monmouth and he is solid.

Bummer.

I hope they don't replace him with Trevor Denman.

Larry Collmus's name being mentioned? I think he's solid.

Pretty good.

Collmus is the only other guy I could stomach.

Ya I think Collmus is going to get it. Good choice. . . it's amazing what that one race call did for his career (not that he didn't do well before it).

Me too.

Collmus can be a capable replacement. I like his calls.

The only other I would like would be John Dooley.
