Dan Davis - ESPN Radio

ESPN Radio

Dan Davis joined ESPN Radio in January 1992. He is known as "The Duke". Davis was noted The Tony Kornheiser Show between January 5, 1998 and March 26, 2004. When Davis reported the sports updates, the host, Tony Kornheiser, often interrupted Davis' reports with his own comments. Initially Davis was shocked and not amused. However, later on Davis developed a very good chemistry with Kornheiser, and he even started to add humorous comments within his report to amuse (or annoy) Kornheiser. Davis and Kornheiser talking back and forth in this way prompted Kornheiser to say that The Duke was the glue of the show.

Today Dan Davis provides the Sportcenter updates. Davis has also appeared on other programs; he supplied his voice during the Week 10 edition of Mike and Mike in the Morning's "Stone Cold Lead Pipe Locks" on November 7, 2008.

On December 21, 2011 on Mike and Mike in the Morning it was announced that Davis was retiring from ESPN Radio, effective December 23.
