Clark Kellogg is one of the most respected voices covering college basketball today. The CBS Sports analyst was once a top college basketball player at Ohio State University, where he earned All-Big Ten Conference honors and won the Big Ten Most Valuable Player award in 1982.
He was selected eighth overall in the first round of the 1982 NBA Draft by the Indiana Pacers, and named to the NBA All-Rookie first team in 1983 after averaging 20.1 points and 10.6 rebounds. But his NBA career was cut short after just four seasons due to knee injuries, and he was forced to retire in 1986 at the age of 25.
Clark began his broadcasting journey with ESPN in 1990, and in 1993 he moved to CBS Sports, where he has worked since.
On this episode of the podcast, we talk to Kellogg about his excitement for the upcoming basketball season, playing hoops with President Obama, reflecting back on the day he came to Christ, and what it means to be a follower of Jesus in his life today.
