Just read about this. Praying for him and his family.

He will probably miss the opener against Utah State and Texas. Maybe UL Monroe. After that, he should be able to return, fingers crossed.

I still miss him being the voice of NASCAR.

Glad he back and his health is better.

 

[Brandon Van de Graaff]

Would be pretty remarkable if he was able to return. I know he wants to go out in his terms though, so I hope he’s able to.

I still miss him being the voice of NASCAR.

Way back, when he first was named to the Alabama team, the running joke was that the first sack or interception would be met with a "trouble in turn three!!"
