Peak names Abe Jackson to b-ball radio team

Don Day | September 10, 2008

Peak Broadcasting just picked up another media savvy former player for its broadcast team. BSU basketball standout Abe Jackson will join Bob Behler as color analyst for its broadcasts of men’s basketball this season. Jackson is a BK grad and former all-WAC forward (and a nice guy to boot).

“As the excitement of the 2008 BSU Athletic season gets underway, we are proud to welcome Abe to our talented team of broadcast professionals at Peak Broadcasting,” Peak SVP Kevin Godwin said in a statement. “Abe’s in depth knowledge of college basketball, Boise State, and the Treasure Valley, will make tuning in BSU basketball on the Peak/Boise State University Sports Radio Network a truly unique listening experience.”

Abe guest hosted an edition of KTVB’s Sunday Sports Extra with Mark Johnson and (soon-to-be Peak colleague) Brian Holmes several years ago, and was always a good media interview. His knowledge of b-ball is encyclopedic and he’s paid close attention to BSU basketball since he graduated several years ago, and should bring an interesting dynamic to the product.

(Disclosure: Abe is a friend)
