6 memories of Keith Jackson, the man who made every town a college football town
Posted Feb 10, 2018
Keith Jackson could wander. It was more fun when he did. He did it more frequently as he got older. He would note a lineman’s big a** or pause in the middle of a flawless, minimalist broadcast to say, “My, oh my, have airplanes changed the way we lived.” The wanderings were rare. He was, more than anything, intensely focused. At his best, he felt like a medium.
