Bob Barry is retiring as the voice of the Sooners after this year. It's sad to see him go, but it was probably time...while he's great and a legend and all that, he's definitely made more mistakes during games the past few years (for example, I don't know how he could never seem to get it through his had that the player's name was "BRODNEY Pool", not "Brandon Pool" or "Broderick Pool" or "Rodney Pool", all of which he used regularly for this poor guy).
How do ya'll feel about this? Do you know of anyone locally who might get the job, now that he's retiring? Who would you like to see take over for him, if anyone? And more importantly, do you feel the way I do about it, hoping they will have open auditions so you can go try out for the job as the next voice of Oklahoma Sooner football? I have to be honest, my secret dream job for many years has been to do exactly what John Brooks and Bob Barry Sr. did. (Broadcasting background? On-air experience? PSHAW....I can do that job.) :-)
