I could have sworn when they won the championship last year, he was "wah-keem" - suddenly everyone is referring to him as "joe-kim." I hope someone can help me out with this - I'm really curious.

You are right. Last year the announcers were refering to him as "wah" - but it was actually "Joe".
The Florida sports information director made sure it was corrected this year.

It has always been pronounced "Joe-kim." You may have heard someone mispronounce it last year, but I know for a fact that since he has played for Florida, his name has always been pronounced "Joe-kim'.

he is french not spanish. Therefor Joakim is pronounced Joa - kimm. Announcers are saying it right.
PS: He yelled to the crowd "I am Joa - kim Noah, son of Yannik Noah!!"

The announcers always have problems with people's names that are not common.
