to listen to old Jim Phillips games. Don has to recreate a lost art.

On the concrete wall behind producer Kevin Smith hangs a twice-life-sized picture of the late Jim Phillips, who for 36 years was “The Voice of the Tigers,” in a way modern radio broadcasters are not.

Before wall-to-wall TV coverage and social media, generations of the school’s “subway alumni” — many of whom never set foot on Clemson’s campus — counted on Phillips to be their eyes and ears.

Rogers, 44, knows the impact of “The Voice.” Growing up near Mullins as a lifelong Tigers fan, he vividly recalls listening to Phillips’ call of Clemson’s 16-10 win at Notre Dame. “(Phillips said) ‘There’s a lot of orange in South Bend today, and all of them are on their feet,’?” said Rogers, who was 10 at the time.

“Those guys — Jim, (North Carolina’s) Woody Durham, (USC’s) Bob Fulton — that was radio,” he said. “It’s a different era now.”
