When you think Ktown you think Big Orange Country! The local media has always embraced the Vols as athletic supporters (pun intended).

Here's Ed Brantley from the 70's plus a fun "Beat Auburn" moment featuring Claude the Cat~



101 heard from Ron Campbell...

"Hi...ENJOY YOUR STORIES ABOUT KNOXVILLE RADIO. BRINGS BACK MANY MEMORIES OF THE YEARS THAT I WAS AT WIVK FROM 68 TO 72, WORKING THE 7 TO MIDNIGHT SHIFT, FOLLOWING BOBBY DENTON'S SHOW. ALSO WORKED THE MORNING SHOW AT WBIR IN 1975 AND 76...KNOXVILLE RADIO IS ALWAYS CLOSE TO MY HEART. WAS INDUCTED INTO THE DJ ROCKABILLY HALL OF FAME IN JACKSON LAST YEAR. NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD SEE ANY HONOR LIKE THAT FOR AN OLD COUNTRY BOY. THANKS" (RON CAMPBELL)
