Keels broadcasts for people who are in their cars or otherwise only listening on the radio, not for people who turn down the TV announcers and use the radio guy as a substitute. It's a subtle difference, but he's broadcasting with the understanding that the listener can't see the game. It's clean, clear and professional. I've never had a problem following a game he's done.
TV guys try to go a little nuts, because you can already see what they're describing. You don't need for them to relay to you ball movement in basketball, for example, and as anyone who's watched the NCAA's this month knows, they can't stop yapping long enough to bother.
Still, the point that Keels could have a better grasp of the moment, or a keener sense of drama is valid. Some plays are game changing or even season changing, and a veteran announcer should be able to sense that and relay it accordingly.
