I beg to differ. Love Laas as a man but he was avg at best

I spend a lot of time on road and listen to a lot of PBP. Laaser was poor on down and distance and his inflection was not up to giving you the flow of the game. Couldn't tell until after the play if it was a 3 yard or 13 yard gain. He missed constantly who had it or what the spot was, etc. Listening around he was worse than many others. Side note: the ACC has plenty of bad ones, especially the NC schools.

Wish him well but we can do better. Oh and Roth is and was a stud at PBP.

Oh it's definitely the O&M glasses... -- AirForceHokie77 01/05/2022 7:43PM

I tend to agree...Does he even want to do it, and for how long? ** -- TekkNerd 01/04/2022 8:56PM

Because he's one of the best in the business ** -- mvick 01/04/2022 7:59PM

I would answer that with a question. Why not? -- hokiepokie4321 01/04/2022 7:03PM

Good response. It would be cool if he came back. There are other talented -- AirForceHokie77 01/04/2022 8:46PM

Same here, I would welcome a fresh voice -- hokiepokie4321 01/04/2022 9:34PM

Roth was pretty good. ** -- Riverguy 01/04/2022 6:50PM

just for “‘good’ old times” sake, if nothing else. ** -- HtownHokie 01/04/2022 6:32PM

They're not gone. They are what they are. -- Brown Water 01/04/2022 5:41PM

Entirely feasible as an interim but new voice this fall, IMO ** -- One4VT 01/04/2022 5:38PM

How good is the Penn State play by play guy? (Just kidding...sort of :>) ** -- Tuckahokie 01/04/2022 6:42PM

Fingers crossed. Laaser was good, but Bill Roth was/is the best ... -- Hokiestud 01/04/2022 4:58PM

Laaser & Roth toss-up as PBP guys but Laze was far better at non-game stuff ** -- marcbvtgm 01/05/2022 12:10PM

I beg to differ. Love Laas as a man but he was avg at best -- Stubo 01/05/2022 07:21AM

I thought Laaser was better for BB but Roth no doubt better for football ** -- VaTechHokiesACC 01/05/2022 05:30AM

Roth much better at basketball than Laaser -- vtdan80 01/05/2022 07:41AM

We will have to agree to disagree on that ** -- VaTechHokiesACC 01/05/2022 09:52AM

There may be some truth to that... -- One4VT 01/04/2022 4:48PM

jason from arlington agrees ** -- squarerootofone 01/04/2022 4:11PM

Talk about entertainment! ** -- EDGEMAN 01/04/2022 4:33PM
