I am sure that we will find out in time what the future holds for Russ and Rob.

That being said, if you could hand pick a former Bobcat great to join the radio booth, who would it be?
oh, you know .. just any former player with zero broadcasts experience would do !!

steve esterkamp, javion harris, jerry le bold, tom jamerson, eddie washington, marin bota, rush floyd, jay berry ..

any other suggestions ?
I personally like your suggestion of Bota. As I'm sure you know, he has NBA skills (on the mic??!)

Nick Kellogg has the pedigree, but Treg Setty has my vote. He is, after all, the Peebles Champ.

Recently: Nick Kellogg, Treg Setty, Stevie Taylor, Tommy Freeman. Blends of entertaining, and students of the game.

Highly unlikely any former player would do it. My money would be on Tony Castricone.

If we lose Russ, Tony C would be great...

Ha That would have been my choice years back but I am not sure he would leave Clemson at this point. Not sure if Brian Boesch is doing PBP.

Had a blast calling the D3 men's basketball Final Four. Congrats to @UWStevensPoint on the title!

Clearly, Bobcat Love's time has arrived.

I don't think Love would be a great PBP guy....but sign me up for him to be the Color guy. Filling in the gaps with talks of pretzels. Talk about must listen radio!

I did not realize he was the actual play by play guy, I thought he was working for Clemson in some lower level role. If that is the case, yeah he is probably not going to leave that gig even though I'm sure he'd love the chance to do PBP for Ohio.
