Gotta Love Craig Way Catch-All Thread

[LTtxfan 49378]

Gotta Love Craig Way!!  🤘

 

Could not find a thread about Craig Way, so had to start one...

Rod Babers on his show today played a recording of Craig Way reading the lyrics of "Going Back to Cali"  (LL Cool J).

Great Stuff... I'll add a link later when available

he's part of the Mercer Mafia at UNT.  lot of great Texas broadcasters cut their teeth under the great Bill Mercer, including Craig Way.

Who is bottom right?  Looks like my dead grandfather. 

[Dennis Taylor 18885]

for some reason this clip has Craig's call sandwiched between ABC, but "He's done it again!" is a fucking classic

Yep. and Junior Miller and Mark Followill. 

[Bevo&Pevo 5229]

there will never be another like him.  He'll be a hard act to follow.

We’ve been pretty lucky Sham, Schoenig and Way

[VolenteHawk 495]

I know Craig a little bit. Professionally, the highest compliment I can pay him is if I’m road tripping and Texas is playing KU in anything...I’ll listen to his call of the game.

[LTtxfan 49378]

Two segments kinda patched together...

Craig is fun. Sad about his wife though. Everytime I hear him I think about his wife.

[PantsTent 2002]

Prodigious Clout was an all-timer.

 

[GreenspointTexas 9689]

Very underrated. We are so so lucky to have him

[Al_4_ISU 12509]

I farm, so I spend much of football season in a tractor cab.  I listen to all the Big 12 games, as well as any others nationally I find intriguing.  Way is probably the best overall pxp guy in the league.  It's a stunning contrast to hear him and then switch over to OU's slobbering goobers (who crack me up, but come off borderline slapstick).  He's much more professional, but not to the point of being a stiff.

I would rank the Big 12 crews as following:

Texas

ISU

WVU

OK State

OU

Tech

KSU

TCU

KU

Rape

[nunna yo bizness 1687]

Craig is superb, but for those that remember further back he was preceded by Bill Schoening, who was also fantastic.  Our program has been blessed with great playcallers for decades.

Edit:  And I almost forgot, before Bill we had Brad Sham.  Pretty impressive.

Man, I can’t tell you how many fall Saturdays as a teenager I spent in the cab of a John Deere 4440 listening to college football on the radio getting stoned out of my mind. Good times...

I picked a lot of rock in the 4440 back in the day

[Al_4_ISU 12509]

Only got stoned in the tractor once. I hate operating machinery baked.

To be fair, I hate doing anything other than eating and giggling while baked.

Brown blazer, mustache, pink shirt.

Whatever you say, bro. 

[Beau Vine 54471]

First time I met him, I sat behind him in the RR press box and he had the worst case of plumber's butt ever. 9 innings of Craig Way's buttcrack staring at me...

Bill Little.

[RollLeft 5045]

I think Craig is great at his job.  He's the ultimate professional and glad he's behind the mic for the Horns.  That said that mf'er  has a very punchable face and if he wasn't on our side i'd think he looks like a pervy douche.

 Cooperstein did Texas football for a year or two.

He's the best this state has ever seen.  Just fantastic.

Looks kind of like Norm.  I see both Junior and George are there.

Link to an interesting Old interview of Craig Way by Roger Enrich.

https://vokalnow.com/audio/1234 

"One On One #15 - Craig Way"

Roger - somehow - catches up with the voice of the Texas Longhorns (and Texas high school football) Craig Way about his hectic schedule and his life since the loss of his wife last year.

Craig Way's call of the Coleman buzzer beater shot to beat blOU...🤘

Love Andrew Jones reaction to Coleman's game winning shot, right after blOU fans had been screaming TEXAS sucks... HaHaHaHa!!!
