Best college to become a sportscaster?

Question

Hi my grandfather worked at cbs he was the sports announce for boxing, the Kentucky derby etc. and i have always been told id be a good broadcaster myself. What are the best colleges to go to for this i know espn.com had an article on it but i cant seem to find it.

Answer 1

Sportscasters can come from a variety of schools. Keith Olbermann went to Cornell. Chris Berman went to Brown. So there are a variety of ways into the business.

I should throw in a plug for my alma mater, Syracuse. A ton of people passed through there, including Bob Costas. Mike Tirico of ESPN went to school there.
