Oct. 29, 2012
NORMAN, Okla. -- Sooner Sports TV powered by Fox Sports has announced its broadcast talent team for the 2012-13 OU men's basketball season. Among the announcers for selected games is a new, yet familiar, face.
Former Sooner and 11-year NBA veteran Brent Price will serve as the color analyst for at least half of the eight telecasts. Price, from Enid, Okla., averaged 18.0 points a game during his two years at OU (1990-91 and 1991-92), earning first-team All-Big Eight honors as a senior. He set Lloyd Noble Center records of 56 points and 11 3-pointers against Loyola Marymount his junior season. Both records still stand. Price played in the NBA with the Washington Bullets, Houston Rockets, Vancouver Grizzlies and Sacramento Kings.
Bob Carpenter and Chad McKee will split the play-by-play duties, with McKee working some of the early season telecasts and Carpenter the rest. Carpenter is in his 11th season calling OU games.
Former OU head coach Billy Tubbs returns for his third season of work as color analyst. Tubbs, who is the Sooners' all-time-winningest coach (333 victories) and guided OU to four NCAA Tournament No. 1 seeds, will announce games opposite of Price.
Jessica Coody will serve as a sideline reporter for select broadcasts.
The 2012 Sooner Sports TV powered by Fox Sports men's basketball broadcast schedule is below. The network's programming is delivered on a variety of existing FOX Sports outlets including FOX Sports Oklahoma, FOX Sports Southwest and FOX College Sports.
