A lot of people criticize ESPN, but I remember when they were a fledgling network and could not broadcast live games, so every Sunday night they would televise on tape delay, the Bama game from Saturday. The announcers were Jim Simpson with color provided by Paul McQuire.
I loved it because I got to see Bama every single week.
They gave us a lot of support then, and if you think about it, they give Coach Saban, and our program a ton of national publicity now. Those promo commercials he did and those interviews he gets helps us immensely in recruiting on a national scale.
Summary---I like ESPN.
