He's more of a color guy and not the voice.

He just isn't "it" like Jim Phillips or Pete Yannity.
Pete and Dan working together would be much better.

Biggest mistake the school has made in a long while, Don is not good on the radio and he or the school really killed the TV show. Bring Pete and Will Back!

Several thoughts on this. It has got to be difficult to be the replacement of a popular PBP man...I know he feels the pressure and hears the constant criticism. I don't think for a second that he isn't a loyal Clemson man and he wants to do a good job. With that being said, he is not that good, yet. Maybe we should give him til the end of the season and see if there is any improvement. The guy deserves that much, IMO.

evidently, the admin does not listen to baseball broadcast. If they did, he would have never even been in consideration. Listening to him during a baseball game....you never know what is going on. You think it was a HR or long base hit when ball was caught midway in the outfield. And, goodness, he sure does get excited when the other team does something good. I won't even talk about all his giggling.

My daughter plays travel softball so I will get to hear them for the first time on Saturday. From what I've gathered from everyone else, the broadcasts have been less than stellar, but I am going to keep an opened mind and I will form my own opinion after the game. Regardless of their broadcast.... GO TIGERS!!!!

Nothing good can be said about Don Munson's broadcasts. I'd much rather hear Jesse Palmer broadcasting than Don Munson, and I hate Jesse Palmer's broadcasts.

I do like his baseball PBP.
Of course, this board bashed Doc Walker until he was gone.

I think he is the worst announcer we have ever had - at least in my lifetime.
First his voice is not a radio voice. Second, he delays in calling plays and/or names of players. It's like he has to look them up. Third, he doesn't show the same excitement Jim or Pete did.
I know he is a Clemson man, but that doesn't make him qualified or the best person for the job.
Huge mistake, Dan!

By the way what was the official "reason" Pete was ousted, was it on his own or forced... They never really said.
I may be one of the few, but I actually liked him.

At least we don't have a guy who sounds like he's been smoking 30 years and is sitting on the crapper! Like Todd Ellis the gamecoot PBP guy. It hurts the ears to listen to that guy.
