Gary Sharp

[Frogsker30]

I don’t listen, haven’t listened in a while.
I always liked sharp.
Sharp and benning in the morning was my go too.

Middays were always hit and miss but I didn’t mind harper

I do not know how the fuck USC is still on line. Probably to give the Pickle Smoochers something

Possible but if he was leaving of his own accord you’d think he would publicly announce that, etc.

I mean I wouldn't let him go on air to tell everyone where to follow him.

Not that it would actually make a difference for those that want to follow. Might on some olds who can't figure out how to stream.

He’s posted nothing on socials. You’d think he’d do that.

That's true. A time restriction possible?

Matt said he's no longer with 1620. Common sense has got to say let go or laid off. I listened to him every morning that I could and he did not seem like a guy that was on his way out in the last week or two.

Hope he lands at hurrdat. Or the ticket, he’s too good not to be picked up, MS will do well with happer, their show on the ticket 5 years ago was actually pretty decent

Happer is almost as bad as petersen

I thought Gary handpicked McAmateur to replace Handley.

McAmateur is terrible to listen to.

I hope, as some have suggested, that Gary does an afternoon show on Hurrdat. That would make the transition away from any 1620 media much easier.

I like Nick Handley, but thought he was an odd fit with Gary Sharp. Handley had been hosting his own show and they then stick him with Gary and they are both host types of people. I think that if they were going to hire Handley, they should have given him his own show with a partner.

I thought that the Happer show was boring on his own, but will give him a chance with Mike Schaeffer as I really like Schaeffer. Not sure McMaster will be a success, but mid day slot is not a huge ratings booster. So, they can afford to go cheap here.

As far as Gary, I have loved listening to him since his days of hosting Sports Nightly and was happy when he came back to the Omaha/Nebraska market a few years ago. My guess is that his contract was up and 1620 saw this as a way to save money. I am sure Gary will pop up somewhere else like Hurdat, 93.7 or a podcast. Like listening to him on the weekend Average Joe podcast.

I honestly liked the dynamic between mcmaster and Gary. I'm sure Happer is a good dude but I found the midday show to be really boring so this is a bummer of a change.

 

[1HuskerDad]

Average Joe Sports Show is the best

If you had Sharp and Schmidt host that - it would be great

 

[huskerj12]

Seems like every local radio host shuffle happens out of the blue like this. Seems like a shitty business to be in.

I would love for him to get back with Benning on Hurrdat. No offense to Ravi, but Sharp was able to get Damon out of his cryptic loops and keep things moving. Ravi just gets railroaded by Benning.
