I know it started at Navy we learned at that World Cup last year. It just became more popular after the USMNT/Uncle Sam's Army used it in Brazil. Then it was mainstream and copied a lot.

If Veley cut back on talking too much it would help. The guy bleeds Orange but loves hearing himself talk during games. JB gave him a death glare and pounded the table when in Feb. 2014 against Notre Dame he announced Cooney was 1 3 pt. shot away from the school record after he made a 3 because he rightfully realized Cooney would gun to tie the record which he didn't do but took shots he shouldn't have.

Veley needs to be put on a word diet. Just announce the player who scored. Stop announcing the score after EVERY made bucket and announcing 1/2 FTs by whomever, announcing stats after scores. He talks too much but he is loyal to SU I don't want him gone just talking less. At a FB game in 2007 he announced the holder on a FG attempt who wasn't typically the holder and it alerted the WVU coaches we doing something and our fake was stopped. Now I don't blame Veley 100% but he announcing it didn't help the freaking situation. He loves the sound of his voice. That gets annoying when you are a PA guy and not a Play-by-Play guy.
