Sad news to report.
If you watched college football anytime from the mid-1960s to the mid-2000s, there's no doubt you heard the legendary voice of Keith Jackson. The ABC broadcaster announced an impressive 16 Sugar Bowls and 15 Rose Bowls during his long and storied career, during which his catchphrases like “Whoa, Nellie!” and “Hold the phone!” became familiar in households across America.
On Saturday morning, sadly, it was reported that Jackson had passed away at the age of 89, surrounded by friends and family.
