Loved me some Paul Eells!
ARKANSAS-JULY-31-2006
Broadcaster Paul Eells, dubbed the “Voice of the Razorbacks,” died in a car crash near Russellville (Pope County). Eells became the play-by-play announcer for the Razorbacks football team in 1978 and also served as the sports directors for KATV television in Little Rock. Throughout his career, he called many noteworthy moments in Razorback football history and was inducted into the Arkansas Sports Hall of Fame in 2006.
His signature calls—“Oh My,” usually when the Razorbacks made a big play, and “Touchdown Arkansas!” when the Arkansas team scored—came to be treasured by Arkansas fans. cals-
