I don't know if it was just because it was UK playing, but I always loved listening to Cawood and Ralph.

Does anyone remember Joe Dean saying "string music in LEXINGTON KY"

My personal favorite is Gene Deckerhoff. If you get the chance, you should tune in and listen to him, very good.

Here is some examples:

As a Reds fan, I gotta say I loved listening to Marty and Joe as a kid, long before there was such a thing as Fox Ohio and the internet.

And of course, Cawood Ledford always painted such a vivid picture of UK games on the radio.

Others on my list:

College football = Gary Danielson, Todd Blackledge
College basketball = Jay Bilas, Gus Johnson
NFL = Jim Nantz, Al Michaels
MLB = Jack Buck
