Jim Nantz, 3x Emmy Award winner & 5x National Sportscaster of the Year | Ep. 11

  • Summary

  • Jim Nantz, the three-time Emmy Award winner and five-time National Sportscaster of the Year, joined the CBS Television Network in 1985.  He currently serves as the lead play-by-play announcer for THE NFL ON CBS, including the Super Bowl and Thursday Night Football games; the lead anchor of CBS’s golf coverage, including the PGA Tour, Masters, and the PGA Championship; and lead play-by-play announcer for college basketball, including the NCAA Men’s Final Four. In 2007, 2010, and 2013, Nantz completed a rare broadcasting triple by becoming the first commentator in history to broadcast the Super Bowl, NCAA Men’s Final Four, and the Masters, all in the same year. He will once again repeat this trifecta in 2016.

    In August 2011, Nantz received the Pro Football Hall of Fame Pete Rozelle Radio-Television Award.  He is the youngest recipient ever of this award. Nantz also was honored by the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame as its youngest recipient of the Curt Gowdy Media Award in 2002. Nantz joins Dick Enberg and Curt Gowdy as the only broadcasters to receive both Pro Football and Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame honors.
