Another ex-ESPN personality is heading out west to join the FOX Sports radio and television family. Doug Gottlieb is leaving CBS Sports Radio and will take over weekdays from 3p-6p ET starting April 24th, filling the void left behind by Jay Mohr.
In addition to hosting a daily program for FSR, Gottlieb will also contribute as a basketball analyst for FS1, offering insight and analysis for Skip And Shannon: Undisputed, The Herd with Colin Cowherd and other programs.
“I couldn’t be happier to join FOX Sports Radio and FS1,” said Gottlieb. “This is an exciting next step in the evolution of The Doug Gottlieb Show. FOX Sports has created a multi-platform, innovative, high-quality sports entertainment destination, and I’m looking forward to joining their industry-leading lineup.”
“We are honored to have Doug Gottlieb, one of the preeminent voices in the format, join our incredible lineup of sports entertainment personalities,” said Don Martin, SVP Sports Programming for Premiere Networks/FSR. “Doug’s experience behind the mic, on TV, and courtside makes him an ideal addition to the FOX Sports family. We look forward to sharing his quick-witted, smart and outspoken brand of entertainment with our FSR audience.”
Gottlieb has hosted The Doug Gottlieb Show on CBS Sports Radio since 2013 and has been a featured analyst on CBS Sports, CBS Sports Network and CBSSports.com. Previously, the former basketball standout was a college basketball analyst at ESPN and host of The Doug Gottlieb Show on ESPN Radio. He also co-hosted a midday sports talk show at WWLS-AM in Oklahoma City, OK.
