Jim Nantz is one of the most famous sports broadcasters in America. Since being hired by CBS Sports in 1985 at age 26, he’s become a 5-time national sportscaster of the year and has provided the play-by-play soundtrack for many of the most iconic moments in sports. Nantz has called multiple Super Bowls, Final Fours and the Masters.
The Nantz family also has deep roots in North Carolina. Nantz, 65, not only was born in Charlotte, but both his mom’s and dad’s families are deeply embedded in our state. Nantz was inducted into the North Carolina Sports Hall of Fame in 2024.
For his "Sports Legends of the Carolinas" interview, Nantz sat with us in Greensboro, where he was broadcasting a golf tournament. We spoke about his family, the time he called a Super Bowl featuring the Carolina Panthers and the origin story about why he opens every telecast with the phrase “Hello friends.”
