Really like his voice and personality. Sorry to hear he quit. Wish he would have taken over for Dave South.

Sucks he is gone. Really enjoyed him. Always thought his voice was unique. Godspeed Chace!

Another Sumlin scapegoat.
This guy is holding everyone accountable except himself.

Sarcasm?

That was sarcasm, I know it was.

It was sarcasm, right?

He's good but too serious for my liking

Trying to think back in time....is Murphy only the third PA announcer at Kyle over the past 50 years?

- C.K. Esten
- Roger Feldman
- (anyone else ?)
- Chace Murphy

Who's next? In case I missed it.

C.K. Esten was my favorite, in a league of his own. Wally Pryor was great at t.u. also. Wish we had one of those types waiting in the wings.

From what he says in this video, I'd guess that he took over from Roger Feldman.

So what's the story here? Sad he's gone, I've associated his voice with Aggie football since he got here.

C.K. Esten was tops, IMO.

It's not the announcer, it's the fact that someone thinks we need an announcer to tell us what down it is...

Wholesale changes.....program trying to gin up interest any way it can before the empty seats increase.

I liked Roger Feldman, since he was during my era as a student, though I have heard much about the legendary CK Esten.

I thought the 3rd down thing was just, just because of how much it annoyed people.

I think the 3rd down schtick wouldn't have been as annoying if we actually stopped someone on 3rd down.

Are we going to look to Will Johnson to fill the void left by Chace?

Will Johnson would cut attendance in half.

Just found myself wondering what became of Chace? Where did he land?
And has his successor been named yet?

It borders on a little creepy when some of you have such an opinion about a man based on his voice only.

I was just thinking with the exception of Paul Harvey, not many radio personalities fit their "face". This dude did. For example, for years, I pictured Dave South being a fat dude.

Seems like most critics acknowledged he was a super nice guy. But their comments were based on his announcing -- not him personally.

I wish someone could find more recordings of C.K. I remember his pregame announcement..."I'd like to remind you that drinking of alcoholic beverages at state university athletic contents is ILLEGAL..(hiss....) Agents of the Alcoholic Beverage Commission ARE in attendance and this regulation WILL be enforced." (more hissing)

"And in the first quarter, Baylor 3, Texas University (long pause) 7" (more hisses)

Different era. No jumbotron, two decks, open south end, and no media time outs, except for the rare TV game. Dead time had yells, and the bands (yes, both schools had marching bands) played during the game. Also a lot less liquor. and a lot less maroon in the stands.

The last memorable PA announcer I heard was the late Bob Sheppard at Yankee Stadium. I also enjoy hearing Gene Honda, the PA voice for the White Sox, Blackhawks and the Final Four.

With all of the TV timeouts, I don't know how you do not have spirit kills, Do we really need all of the bugle calls, health updates, and donor recognitions? I did enjoy the feeds from other games, but those seemed short. Even the yells and band are an afterthought.
