Heโs long been recognized regionally: for example, the National Sports Media Association named him Utah Sportscaster of the Year in 2021 .
His career is highlighted on Wikipedia and BYU’s official siteโciting his decades of play-by-play workโbut there’s no mention of a recent national award .
There’s also no coverage in mainstream outlets (ESPN, Sports Illustrated, AP, etc.) about him receiving a โnational broadcaster of the yearโ honor.
This appears to be false or misleadingโlikely exaggerated or entirely unfounded. No reputable source confirms such a national accolade, and ESPN has not reported it.
