The excitement surrounding Tennessee athletics just got a little louder with the announcement of Mike Keith as the next Voice of the Vols. Known for his iconic role as the voice of the Tennessee Titans, Keith’s switch to calling the Vols’ games has fans eagerly awaiting his first broadcast. And it’s safe to say, he’s already winning hearts with his incredible hype video.
In the video, posted shortly after his hire, Keith proves that he’s more than just a talented broadcaster. The clip showcases his lifelong passion for Tennessee sports, with footage and highlights that stir up nostalgia and anticipation. It’s clear from the video that Keith is ready to pour his energy and enthusiasm into representing the Volunteers, and fans have been quick to share their excitement. “This is going to fire fans up!” one viewer commented, and judging by the overwhelming positive feedback, it seems that’s exactly the response Keith was hoping for.
Replacing Bob Kesling, a beloved figure in Tennessee sports, is no small task, but Keith’s appointment comes at a time when the Vols are at the height of excitement. Tennessee’s football team has reached new heights with its first-ever College Football Playoff appearance, the men’s basketball team has dominated with a No. 1 ranking early in the season, and the baseball team claimed the national title. With such a high-profile era underway, Keith’s transition to the role couldn’t come at a better time.
Keith, who spent years calling Titans games, is no stranger to Tennessee and Knoxville. His deep roots in the state, combined with his love for the Vols, have made him a natural fit for the role. As Kesling’s retirement draws closer, all eyes will be on Keith to carry the torch and bring the same level of passion and excitement to the Vols that he’s brought to the Titans.
Fans can’t wait for the upcoming season as Keith gears up to deliver what is sure to be an unforgettable experience for Tennessee sports fans.
