Ernie Johnson has been broadcasting for Turner Sports and CBS Sports for 30+ years.
He has won multiple Emmy Awards and shared the stage with colorful characters. The 64-year-old has achieved a lot in his life, but a phone call from Nick Saban added more. As he enters his 15th season at the helm of the University of Alabama football program, Saban reached out to Johnson to speak to the team. The voice behind Inside the NBA, NBA on TNT, and NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Tournament for Turner on CBS did not hesitate.
