    Eli Gold on parting with Alabama, the Gravedigger call and his first game as the voice of Alabama
    Jul 25 2024
    On November 25, 2023, Eli Gold delivered his final call as the voice of Alabama. It was one of many instantly iconic Eli Gold calls: a hail mary touchdown pass from Jalen Milore to Isaiah Bond to win the Iron Bowl in Auburn. Eli wouldn't learn for several more weeks that it would be his last call after 36 years in the booth for the Crimson Tide. Today, on the first episode of Beat Everyone's Golden Age miniseries, Eli Gold takes us into the booth as he made that call and shares his perspective on everything that happened afterward. Why did he and Alabama part ways? What's next for Eli? What is his message to fans? Eli also shares the story behind his first game for Alabama and his early relationship with Paul Finebaum. Plus, you'll have an opportunity to leave a voicemail question for Eli Gold. Join us on the latest episode of Beat Everyone.

    Welcome to Beat Everyone, AL.com's new home for the conversations Bama fans are having right now. In the debut episode, host Ben Flanagan is joined by AL.com college football columnist Michael Casagrande and producer Matt Scalici for a frank discussion about the changing culture at Alabama. How does Kalen DeBoer's philosophy compare to Nick Saban's? Does he have full control of this team yet? They also address the ridiculous "Husky Harsin" comparisons coming from Auburn fans and then are joined by Beat Everyone producer John Hammontree for a quiz about how much the world has changed since Mike Shula stepped down. Then, Ben is joined by former Alabama quarterback John Parker Wilson for a conversation about how he navigated a coaching change as quarterback, the early days of the Saban dynasty, the 'call me' celebration against LSU, the moment he first saw Julio Jones take the field, the hardest hit he ever took in practice, plus a whole lot more. It's a new era for Alabama fans, but we still have one expectation: Beat Everyone.
