He's good at commentary. I think he has done some TV games for some productions. Is he still living in Florida?

I think Murry and Tammy have moved back to Birmingham.

At first, I thought Murry was just doing the Florida Games because he still lived down there. But then Crane said he was going to be doing more off & on and since someone said he was at the MTSU game, it makes sense that they moved back since they both have family here. I think I like Murry better than Steve really. Like how he stayed on and asked coach questions....better questions than Crane does. Crane asks leading questions. Murry asked open questions.

I bet he is still doing some TV work too. Hopefully he can do some of our tv games in the future because he is ten times better than Doug Bell. That guy shouldn't be doing games at all.

Steve Mitchell and Crane's chemistry together is great. Mitchell injects a lot of humor and wit into the broadcast. Murry is more like a professional (not homer) analyst which is fine. And I am not sure Murry has humor and wit.

I liked having Murray's commentary. It was a nice change. It certainly didn't hurt that the game was a blowout in our favor.

Murry could be a real asset to the program in an informal role, or maybe even a formal one. I'm sure he could be of some kind of help to the coaching staff if they are willing.

He was good at the commentary. Enjoyed it.

Steve and David have great chemistry. Steve brings a lot to the broadcast, from humor to a player's mentality. I love David's subtle sense of humor and how Steve doesn't sugarcoat a thing.
Murry was a pro last night and knows the history of UAB like the back of his hand. It will be nice having a color guy for conference play road games.

I really enjoyed it when Oliver was the analyst.
Is there any chance of him returning?

They have been back in B'ham for a while. I believe they moved back in late Summer/early Fall.

They said he would be doing the remainder of the road games this season.

I think he said that Mitchell will be doing some road games as well.

Yes, he did. Probably "driving distance" games like USM and MTSU.

Oliver? as in Oliver Robinson?
