Back in 1985...Doug Dickey became Athletic Director at UT, Ricky Skaggs was the CMA Entertainer of the Year, and Steve Harrison worked morning drive at WNOX! Here's the 101 Audio Vault~
"All of us in or formerly in radio started from somewhere – Even Dave Young was rumored to have once been at WBNT in Scott County, TN. So far as I remember Kent Newton, AKA Tom Kent was the only DJ who really went to a major station – WLS. That is not to say that other DJ didn’t go to equally important stations and were equally as good. But TK was the only guy luckily enough to go to a big station where you had to had to count the zeros in your paycheck to know how much you made." (500 MegaWatt)
