Palmer is horrible at calling games. Link for story.
Brent Musburger and Jesse Palmer will be the lead SEC Network broadcast team when the channel launches this fall, ESPN announced today.
Musburger, a recognized voice in the broadcasting industry, had been calling a national game each week for ESPN/ABC with Kirk Herbstreit. Musburger's new role opens the door for Chris Fowler or Rece Davis to call the top ESPN/ABC national game each week. SI.com previously reported that Fowler wants the top play-by-play job for ESPN/ABC.
ESPN's news release said Musburger received a multi-year contract extension and will continue to call Big 12 college basketball games and share "his expertise and experiences as a mentor."
