And the mic goes silent

Stunning news out of Athens: Legendary UGA broadcaster Larry Munson has retired, effective immediately.

For many Dawgs fans like myself, we grew up with Larry, listening to the games on the radio long before we walked through the arch to get our degrees, and headed over 'tween the hedges on Saturdays. Larry provided a soundtrack and narration to the fall, and his voice will be truly missed.

A good roundup of reactions can be found at the Georgia Sports Blog.

I hope the university and/or the fans can come up with some type of tribute to Larry for Saturday's game vs. Bama.

Best wishes to Larry Munson, a Damn Good Dawg, on his retirement.
