Charles Fischer Administrator No. 1 Share Posted November 11, 2021 I thought it was amazing and cool that Ernie and Jordan Kent were the Sportscasters for the Oregon Mens Basketball Game the other night. Jordan has really evolved into this very smooth, very likeable personality behind the mic and I always enjoy him. Ernie started out good, but kept revolving around the tough situation that Texas Southern dealt with. It was as if he needed a "cause" to promote, when we have enough of that in our real-life? Other than that I thought he made a lot of good comments. Thoughts? Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
30Duck No. 2 Share Posted November 11, 2021 As far as I know the Kent's are the only father/son broadcast team going today, and I agree they were good. I agree it would have been better if Ernie (Million Moves) Kent had filled time reminiscing about his playing time at Oregon instead of opining for Texas Southern Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDuck No. 3 Share Posted November 11, 2021 It was cool, Jordan does well, Ernie was better as a basketball coach. After a while in the second half he was blathering on about something and I just wanted to find the Jerry Allen feed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Fischer Author Administrator No. 4 Share Posted November 11, 2021 There was an awkward moment when Jordan was making a transition to Ernie's track record at Oregon as a coach and he said, "the mark of a good coach is to leave the program better from where you began." Oops. Uh Jordan...he was fired. Then an image came up highlighting the Elite Eight, great players, etc. I think Jordan would have liked that back and said something about Ernie's many accomplishments at Oregon as a player and coach. Learning moment, and I would like to see them continue to see if it can work out. At least Ernie wasn't bugging his colleague about whether he had traveled to some former Soviet Republic like "someone" we know... 1 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICamel No. 5 Share Posted November 11, 2021 As long as Ernie isn't stomping his foot on the floor while shouting "MOVE", I'm good with it. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

olcodgerduck No. 8 Share Posted November 12, 2021 (edited) I enjoyed the commentary by Jordan and Ernie. I am a huge fan of Jordan Kent. I was aware of him when he was a Ducks athlete, and have been watching him on Talkin' Ducks for several years, and appreciate the show as he has presented it. Now, I am up here in upper NW Washington, and since CSNW has crashed and burned, I have lost my opportunity to watch this show. (If Jordan is now working for PAC12 Net, maybe he's not there anymore?) Anyhoo, I enjoyed the Jordan & Ernie show (I like Ernie a lot better now that he's analyzing our Beloved Ducks and not coaching them... ) and hope they will pair up for many more Ducks Basketball games.

ICamel No. 9 Share Posted November 12, 2021 (edited) I have found my "Talkin' Ducks" fix on YouTube. While the program is broadcast at 5PM Tuesdays on CW out of Portland, I can't get it further south in the Willamette Valley. They usually post the video on YouTube sometime on Wednesday or Thursday.

Duckdude No. 10 Share Posted November 12, 2021 (edited) I loved the “Kent and Kent” show! Both played for the Ducks A Duck player and the Duck Coach he played for Father and Son. You can’t get that combination anywhere else! Wonderful, and unique. Loved it! Ernie DID comment that he’d “like to see more movement”…..more than once…..I.e. Classic Ernie: “Move!” And, yes….I thought that Jordan did a great announcing job! Edited November 12, 2021 by Duckdude 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrspenney No. 11 Share Posted November 12, 2021 I also enjoyed them, however they got a little Waltonish and got a little away from the game at times, a hell of a lot better than Walton Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
