Troy football head coach Chip Lindsey, AD Brent Jones and "Voice of the Trojans" Barry McKnight discuss Saturday's upcoming game against Eastern Kentucky.

"Voice of the Trojans" Barry McKnight provides a touching tribute of his predecessor in the booth, Ralph Black. Ralph served as Troy's play-by-play broadcaster from 1976 until passing the torch to McKnight at the conclusion of the 2002 season. Black was responsible for many historic calls during his 26 years as the play-by-play broadcaster for Troy football, basketball and baseball. His famous "Holy Mackerel" call came after Ted Clem booted a 50-yard field goal as time expired to win the 1984 NCAA Division II National Championship Game. 

 

Remarkably, that was just one of four national championships that Black called during his career, as his voice also painted the picture for the 1987 football national title, in addition to the 1986 and 1987 baseball national championships. Black was also part of the 1993 men's basketball run to the national championship game.  

 

A native of Montgomery, Ala., Black called more than 1,000 Troy sporting events and helped build the Troy State Sports Network into one of the largest of its kind in Alabama, at one point comprising 18 stations. He called 122 straight Troy football games, including Troy's first season as a Division I member.

Barry McKnight joined Troy baseball legend Clint Robinson for another episode of Lunch with Legends.
