Biography
Mike Keith, one of the top play-by-play radio announcers in sports, Hall of Fame radio voice and VFL, begins his first season as "Voice of the Vols" in 2025.
Keith just completed his 27th season with the Tennessee Titans in 2024, including the last 26 years as "The Voice of the Titans."
Keith is the lead play-by-play announcer for Tennessee's football and men's basketball games. He is also involved in various new programming initiatives that will be unveiled later this year, promising fans an engaging and dynamic experience. The first part of the new programming launched this spring with the ”Mike Keith Show” on Tennessee Athletics’ YouTube channel.
Describing one legendary NFL play on January 8, 2000, put him on the map. Keith accurately and enthusiastically called the play that he later dubbed "The Music City Miracle," a last-second touchdown that gave the Tennessee Titans a playoff win over the Buffalo Bills. ESPN named Mike's description of "The Music City Miracle" as one of the 10 Best Radio Calls in American Sports History.
With that signature call and scores more since 1999, Keith earned a spot on the "Top 100 Local Voices in the First 100 Years of Sports Broadcasting" list by Sports Broadcast Journal in 2021.
Along with being named Tennessee's Sportscaster of the Year 12 times and winning 20+ Associated Press awards, Keith owns a 1997 Edward R. Murrow Award for nationwide excellence in reporting. He is a member of five Halls of Fame, including the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame, Tennessee Radio Hall of Fame, TSSAA Hall of Fame, BGA Hall of Fame and the University of Tennessee Baseball Hall of Fame.
Keith became WUTK's sports director on his third day on campus in Knoxville in 1986. Within months of that appointment, at only 19, Keith was hired by the legendary John Ward with the Vol Network. He would work in various roles with the Vol Network from 1987-98, including being "The Voice of the Baseball Vols" from 1992-98.
Keith also hosted one of Tennessee's first daily sports talk shows from 1989-98 for WIVK/WNOX Radio in Knoxville. His four-hour show was named Tennessee's best in five of the first six years that awards were presented in AP's sports talk show category in the 1990s.
Keith was born in Knoxville and raised in Franklin. He and his wife, Michelle, have two children, Abby and Matthew. Both his wife and daughter graduated from the University of Tennessee, while Keith's grandfather, C.L. McPherson, played for General Neyland and lettered in 1932.
