Welcome Jerry Schemmel! New voice of the Bears!

Nice to see some positives coming out of the program. Longtime play-by-play announcer Schemmel will be the new voice of the Bears, football and basketball. I'm actually looking forward to this season, slowly.

This is awesome, I really like this guy.

This is surprisingly good news. How could KFKA afford him when they couldn't afford Troy? Also, what happened to the guy they brought in to replace Troy?

Looks like Jason Alvine is now with the Women's basketball team.

For Bears fans too young to remember this, Jerry Schemmel not only survived a horrific passenger plane crash but was remarkably heroic as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bl3E8MPSP0w
