Play-by-Playcast Ep. 74 (Jim Barbar / ESPN)
Manage episode 210560552 series 2362022
Jim Barbar has been a play-by-play voice with ESPN since 1995 covering college sports to the LLWS and even Ultimate. But his path to that job was a long road with several twists, turns and stops along the way. His first real broadcast exposure came as a TV sports anchor for WISH-TV in Indianapolis where he was once banned from Indiana University's Assembly Hall by Bob Knight. He later called a game with Knight on ESPN. We'll get into that and more this week on PxPCast!
