Veteran writer, reporter and radio personality Paul Finebaum built a legion of loyal sports fans as the “Voice of the SEC” during 20 years hosting his Birmingham, Ala.-based radio talk show. When ESPN created the SEC Network in 2013, it was only natural that Finebaum became its first on-air hire, bringing his radio show — and those passionate followers — with him. Now originating from Wynfrey Hotel, Hoover Ala., the show is a forum for lively discussion and debate of all things SEC and across the spectrum of college sports, with Finebaum playing the role of both moderator and provocateur. This TV simulcast anchors the network’s afternoon lineup.
