CATS ON THE RADIO<br />

Neil Price, a 13-year radio veteran, enters his fourth<br />

season as the Voice <strong>of</strong> UK Hoops on the Big Blue<br />

Sports Network. He also serves as the host <strong>of</strong> the Coach<br />

Matthew Mitchell and the Coach Gary Henderson radio<br />

show, the Wildcat Sports Update (a daily radio feature on<br />

the network, highlighting UK's Olympic sports programs),<br />

and is the radio play-by-play announcer for UK<br />

Baseball.<br />

Price had a memorable first season as a member <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Big Blue Network, serving as the play-by-play announcer for a UK Hoops squad that advanced to its first NCAA<br />

Tournament since 1998-99 and a UK baseball squad that completed an historic worst-to-first turnaround to claim<br />

the school’s first SEC title. His last two seasons, UK Hoops has advanced to the third and quarterfinal rounds <strong>of</strong> the<br />

WNIT, respectively.<br />

Price, a native <strong>of</strong> Russellville, Tenn., joined the Big Blue Sports Network from Middle Tennessee State, where he<br />

spent three seasons as the school's broadcast coordinator. He called the action for the Blue Raiders' women's <strong>basketball</strong><br />

and baseball teams, and was the sideline reporter for football broadcasts.<br />

Price, a 2003 graduate <strong>of</strong> MTSU, received his bachelor's degree in mass communications with an emphasis in<br />

electronic media journalism. While working at MTSU, he also began his master's degree in physical education with<br />

an emphasis in sport management. Prior to MTSU, he attended Walters State Community College in Morristown,<br />

Tenn., where he earned an associates degree in general studies with an emphasis in broadcasting.<br />

At the young age <strong>of</strong> 15, Price began working in the broadcasting business at WCRK in Morristown. He learned<br />

everything from serving as a studio producer for high school and college sports broadcasts to disc jockeying during<br />

morning and afternoon drives. He even worked as a part-time news anchor and reporter. It was also where he debuted<br />

as a radio sports broadcaster, serving as a play-by-play announcer and color commentator on Morristown East HS<br />

football, <strong>basketball</strong>, and baseball broadcasts.<br />

Price, 28, resides in Lexington.<br />
