Recognizable across the state, Paul became the “Voice of the Buckeyes” in 1998, providing play-by-play commentary ever since to fans of Ohio State football and men’s basketball. He has been named Ohio Sportscaster of the Year four times by the National Sports Media Association and was inducted into the Ohio Broadcasters Hall of Fame in 2007. Paul is also the author of Tales from the Buckeyes’ National Championship Season and, with Zach Meisel, If These Walls Could Talk: Ohio State Buckeyes. This is his first children’s book.
