Title: Gary Danielson
Post by: hscoach on October 12, 2016, 05:32:36 PM
On Finebaum said that the DB's for Bama are not the elite athletes they have had in the past.

I doubt he knows that Humphrey was slowed by injury.

And when Tony Brown gets in there for Harrison, well ...

He also said Tennessee has a chance against Alabama.

Gary has always looked for ways to criticize Bama.  I'd love to see an analysis of time spent on air running down Bama vs. that complementing us.  I bet it would be 3-to-1 against.

His criticism of our DB is legit but I don't know if it's because of their athletic ability.  Blown coverage isn't a function of ability, or lack of it.

The guy was a starting QB in the NFL, so he knows something about DB's. If he's comparing them to Dre Kirkpatrick, Javier Arenas, Mark Barron, Clinton-Dix, & Dee Milner, he's probably right. I do think E. Jackson & Fitzpatrick are solid, Humphrey may have a chronic injury, & Tony Brown can't stay out of the Saban doghouse. Can't blame the lack of of a pass rush.

and we could call Jeffrey Dahmer a food critic but we don't  :dunno:


starting QB ? ranked # 1601 for Qb's since 1960 ?
at best he was a weak backup
started only 60 games , lost about half of them , 81 tds 78 ints. in 11 years ? 13764 yards total ?
seems the DB's knew something about Gary as well

Danielson is one of the best in the business IMO. He knows football. I enjoy his conversations with Finebaum where he discusses the big games. I generally learn something and I normally see something happen in the game that he talked about.

He is not a homer nor should he be. It is funny how every SEC school thinks he favors someone else. Maybe he just calls them as he sees them. I look forward to him getting paired with someone other than Vern.

I'm happy some folks like him , I don't

 it's been from years of observation that I came to my opinion
didn't wake up one day and say "I think I don't like Gary"

when he left the booth and went to the officials to try to make them kick Quinton out of the game ?
well , that did it for me ...

he is not on the bottom of my list yet ...
not as long as Beth Mowins Pam Ward and Vern are still working anyway  :lol2:

I get tired of Danielson riding the refs and not letting it go. Not just our games but all games. I know for a fact that the SEC office has talked to him about it. I have no problem with him giving his opinion of a bad call but move on and let it go.

you will enjoy this article I remembered from 2010 and not one of our better days
http://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/2010/cbs-college-football-broadcasting-failed/

and it's not just in the SEC , the "dynamic duo" get "love" from all over the college football world
I don't listen to F Bomb , maybe if I did I would like Gary better than the Saturday edition I know
but that won't happen , I just can't get past the "Jerry Springer" feel his show has

I just don't like the HE already knew what was going to happen before it did. That makes me think he is a god or something and he ain't. Just pronounce the names right and advise on the play and move on. RTR!

Out of the many thousands & thousands who've played college football, how many ended up playing in the NFL, mush less being a starter? How many games did you play QB in the NFL since you seem to know so much about DB's and understand defenses so well? Passing for nearly 14,000 yards means he must have faced many NFL DB's, not to mention the defenses of teams like the Cowboys, Steelers, Redskins, etc.

nothing but love MD ...

not an expert on NFL DB's didn't mean to imply that at all   :facepalm:

all I'm saying is his NFL background doesn't mean squat to me
when the talk of great/good NFL QB's come up he isn't in the conversation
if I'm wrong and that's not the case he should calling NFL games not college

I'm sure Gary is a great guy and was good enough to play in the NFL
I'm sure he knows way more than myself about NFL DB's
just not sure how that translates to a  65 year old announcer calling a
college football games to a college football fans in 2016
Gary and Vern are supposed to be CBS's "Dynamic Duo" they aren't
Jesus , can they at least get the players names right 

I'll completely agree with the good Preacher ...
Just pronounce the names right and advise on the play and move on
heavy on the MOVE ON part as well

disclaimer ....
no old people were hurt in the typing of this post
I like old people

I'm impressed sometimes when GD calls something before it happens, and he's a pretty smart guy. Having said that, he is also a sanctimonious ass. He needs to stick to doing color and keep his opinions out of the broadcast. I too, could have throttled him for going on and on about the Quinton Dial hit on Murray.

and if Murray were not a QB ?  and QD made that hit on like say ,  a lineman ?
crickets ?
I wanted to call CBS and tell them to get Gary to take deep breaths
GD really torqued my jelly beans with that BS he pulled that game 
yo' Murray ... don't play D after a INT. ... you might get your dress dirty

A lot of people were upset last week when the Arky player (from Prichard of all places) held Jalen's head down during the interception. I didn't take offense to it. The defensive guy was doing what he should, to take Hurts out of the play. If you think about it, he saved him from taking a big hit by doing that. But people were trying to make a big deal out of that. Bottom line; you take everybody out, who is still mobile, to keep them from making a play.

I started laughing when that happened  :lol2: :lol2: :lol2:
and for the very reason you mentioned
I wanted to thank the boy from Prichard

I'm on the "don't like GD" team personally.  I won't argue that he doesn't know db's or even college football.  I won't even argue that he can't pronounce players names either.  My gripe with him is the many times that he has analyzed a play immediately after the whistle only to have the play replayed and it was obvious that he was wrong.  Not just a little bit off either.  I've seen where he wasn't even close to accurately describing what happened but he just pukes out his garbage again and tries to get the tv audience to believe it.  He should stick to prognostication and get away from in-game color analysis...
