Stan Heath Calling Games Now?

[NuttinItUp]

Just turned on the NIT game (Alabama at Miami) on ESPN. It is halftime, but they have Stan Heath on there at the media table at the game. I assume he is doing the color commentary. (I would assume he is not doing the play-by-play.)

Have I just missed it and is he doing the media thing now?

[NuttinItUp]

Well they just started play again, and he is doing the color commentary for this game.

Interesting..

[lefty08]

He has done at least 1 of our games this year

[NuttinItUp]

He is actually pretty good.
Also, I didn't realize Alabama's coach had been dismissed. They are doing pretty well with an assistant as the interim head coach.

[Adam Stokes]

He did a lot of commentary for WCC games this year, so he did a lot of BYU games.  You'd be surprised how much of a personality he actually has.

[NuttinItUp]

I'd much rather listen to him than John Pelphrey.

I'd much rather have him coaching the hogs than Pelphrey

Glad he's landed on his feet. In hindsight, he came into a very difficult situation at Arkansas. I never wished him ill. Pelphrey was the one who really left us in a bad way. Heath's players went to three straight NCAA tourneys. I didn't like the way we played under Heath but he did get us back to postseason play. Pelphrey's tenure was a disaster once Heath's players left.

I agree. He has a pleasant demeanor and good basketball insights.

Do you remember which game it was? I wanna say it was the Tennessee game

[YodaHog]

He called our loss to Clemson.

This^^. I was surprised with how stiff he was as a coach how well he does as a color commentator. I think he has a much brighter future in broadcasting as opposed to coaching.

I wonder if he is still planning on going back to coaching or has resigned himself to this?
