Especially toward the end, and by his own admission, Fran Fisher was not necessarily the most polished of broadcasters. He delivery could be awkward, stilted, choppy. He would occasionally fumble over words. And, of course, when things got a bit too exciting on the field (see: Penn State-Ohio State 1997), he could occasionally go off the rails completely—yelling and screaming not so much to the Penn Staters listening on the radio, but right along with them.
And really, that was the point, wasn't it?
As a radio man, sure, Fran may have had his flaws.
