Turner Sports Announcer Brian Anderson Talks NCAA Tourney, Career, and Hank the Dog
Brian Anderson calls NCAA, NBA, and MLB games for Turner Sports, and Brewers for Fox Sports Wisconsin. This evening, he will be the play-by-play guy for Wisconsin-Notre Dame at 7:27 ET, and Indiana-North Carolina after that, both on TBS. (TBS will also be broadcasting the Final Four this year, which is the first time in the event’s history it will be on cable.)
In this podcast, we discussed those two games. From there we pivoted to talk about his own career. How many total games did he call last year? What advice does he give to aspiring college students? How does he feel about the very important controversy surrounding Hank the Dog this Brewers offseason?
