About Me:Thanks for checking out my page! I have worked in radio for 7 years, covering college, professional, and high school athletics. Here at 1530 Homer, I host a college basketball show called the Full Court Press. When Lance, Mo, or Alan Cutler go on vacation, you can often hear me filling in for them as well.
I started my career at Miami University, where I served as the Sports Director at WMSR Radio in Oxford – covering RedHawks Football, Hockey, Basketball, and Baseball.
My broadcast experience also includes a two-year stint with the Dayton Dragons – the Cincinnati Reds Class “A” Affiliate – where I called play-by-play action on 1410 ESPN Radio. A bunch of the current Reds were just getting there start when I was there.
I was also the play-by-play voice for the Toledo Storm Hockey Club (ECHL), the “AA” affiliate of the NHL’s Detroit Red Wings during the 2006-07 season. Most recently, I called play-by-play for the "thrilling" Cincinnati Jungle Kats in Arena Football 2.
I also update my own personal blog page, CinciSportsBlog.com if you want to check it out!
When I'm not on-the-air, I produce various programs on ClearChannel's AM Radio Stations: 700 WLW, 1530 HOMER - The Sports Animal, and 55KRC - THE Talk Station....I know, I know...really exciting right?
I have lived here in Cincinnati my whole life and graduated from Miami University in Oxford, Ohio.
Movies:All the James Bond movies (preferably the one's with Sean Connery), The Rock, Oceans 11/12/13, Boondock Saints, Pirates of the Caribbean, American Pie, Old School, Anchorman, Wedding Crashers...need I go on?
TV:Entourage, 24, The Office, Family Guy, Pushing Daisies
Likes:Sports, fun things
Dislikes:Pittsburgh fans, Browns fans
Hobbies:I'm a huge hockey fan, so I like to play pick-up games now and again...and of course watch as much on TV as I can.

Kelly focused on future Enquirer "Sometimes it takes some time to look back on what you accomplished," Kelly said. "I feel really good about the strides this program made. It was a pretty special day at the Orange Bowl in Miami. It didn't turn out the way we wanted it, but when we pulled into Dolphin Stadium and saw thousands and thousands and thousands of Cincinnati fans, I know those who've been following the program a long time, it brought tears to their eyes."

Missed any of my babes this week? Let not your heart be troubled....
- Well, last night certainly wasn't the best outing for Brian Kelly's bunch....a 20-7 loss...but like I said throughout the week, the fact that they just got there opens the door to a new era in UC football.
- I'll be in for Lance at 3pm today to talk for 30 minutes about the game...then UK has a game.

When a loss isn't a loss Enquirer Bowl games aren’t playoffs, they’re parties. They’re for juking, not judgments. The 75th Orange Bowl might have been a chance for the UC Bearcats to nudge some minds and massage some national skepticism. But only a little.
Hokies Handle Bearcats Enquirer University of Cincinnati quarterback Tony Pike said earlier in the week that if the Bearcats were going to beat Atlantic Coast Conference champion Virginia Tech, they couldn’t afford to squander the scoring opportunities they had against Tech’s staunch defense.
******************
Tech stymies UC in Orange Bowl Fox Sports For Virginia Tech, there was no mystery. The Hokies came into the Orange Bowl convinced that if the defense delivered, everything else would fall into place. Oh, how right they were.
McDonalds has been trying to make their food choices healthier....but nobody wants to buy it....so fat and salt it is then....

Very cool scene on New Years Day at Wrigley Field...the Winter Classic...and like the last 100 years, the home team manages to lose a game that's on the national scale...

Connor Barwin's BCS Bowl Diary Enquirer University of Cincinnati senior defensive end Connor Barwin is doing a daily diary from the Orange Bow with Enquirer beat writer Bill Koch. This is the final installment before Thursday's game.
*****************
Fox Sports' Orange Bowl Prediction....UC wins Cincinnati is in the same position Kansas was a year ago, universally underappreciated despite winning 11 games. The Bearcats will use that lack of respect to their advantage, handing Virginia Tech their fourth straight BCS bowl loss. Cincinnati 23, Virginia Tech 19
*****************
Diddy forces Bearcats from hotel...kind of... "See, I don't know how you've got 'P. Diddy,"' Kelly said, gently and comically chiding a reporter Wednesday for not knowing the superstar's most current moniker. "To me he's Diddy."
*****************
Cincy, VA Tech chasing history Sporting News Not long ago, Beamer's Hokies were exactly what the Bearcats are now: surging, surprising, emerging from relative obscurity to stand on the cusp of greatness. So Beamer knows what No. 12 Cincinnati (11-2) will feel Thursday when facing No. 21 Virginia Tech (9-4) in the Orange Bowl - the biggest game the Big East champion Bearcats have ever played.
*****************
Former Red back in organization as Dayton manager Enquirer The Dayton Dragons announced today that Todd Benzinger has been selected as the team's new manager by the club's major league affiliate, the Reds. Benzinger, 45, was the first baseman on the Reds' 1990 World Series championship club and recorded the final out of the series when he caught a foul pop.
*****************
Enjoy the moment, UC Paul Daugherty - Enquirer It's one of the few big games where getting there is more significant than winning there. Ten years from now, all UC fans will remember the Bearcats played in the 2009 Orange Bowl. Some might actually recall the outcome. A few might even remember who UC played. There will be lots of fuzzy.
