The son of former Green Bay Packers executive Bob Harlan,[1] he broadcasts NFL and college basketball games on CBS and is a play-by-play announcer for the NBA on TNT.[2] Until 2008, Harlan was the voice of Westwood One Radio's Final Four coverage. In 2010, he began serving as Westwood One's lead announcer for Monday Night Football, calling his first Super Bowl in Super Bowl XLV. He has broadcast 9 consecutive Super Bowls for Westwood One, Super Bowls 45-53.Nine is the second most in radio network history (Jack Buck, 17). He also broadcast the CBS HD feed of Super Bowl XXXV in 2001. He also calls the preseason games of his hometown Packers for the team's statewide television network since 2003. In 2017, he was voted the National Sportscaster of the Year. BiographyHarlan began broadcasting as a teenager for his alma mater Our Lady of Premontre High School's high school radio station, WGBP, calling play-by-play for the school's boy's basketball, football and ice hockey teams. He had originally pursued attending either the University of Wisconsin–Madison or the University of Notre Dame in pursuit of his communications/mass media degree, but a personal recommendation from broadcaster Gary Bender to Bob Harlan led Kevin to instead attend the University of Kansas and its School of Journalism and Mass Communications. Harlan was introduced to the Jayhawks' primary basketball play-by-play announcer at the time, Tom Hedrick, who audited Harlan's zeal for sports broadcasting and immediately considered him a protege in the making. Hedrick gave Harlan a sideline position his freshman year, eventually deeming him as his understudy and fill-in announcer on days where he had other commitments.[3] Harlan graduated in 1982 with a broadcast journalism degree. In 1982, at age 22, he became the TV and radio voice of the NBA's Kansas City Kings (now the Sacramento Kings). He then was a basketball announcer for his alma mater, the University of Kansas, for one year, then went on to call games for the NFL's Kansas City Chiefs from 1985–93 after several years hosting and producing surrounding pre-game and post-game programming (coincidentally, current Packers play-by-play voice Wayne Larrivee left the Chiefs position open when he began a thirteen-year run as the voice of the Chicago Bears). Harlan also split time with the University of Missouri (1986–89) calling football and basketball games, and worked as the play-by-play voice of the NBA's Minnesota Timberwolves for nine seasons (1989–98). On the network level, Harlan called NFL football for NBC in 1991, college football for ESPN in 1992–93, NFL for Fox from 1994–97, and joined Turner Sports in 1996 to cover NBA playoff games (he would begin calling games throughout the entire season in 1997, which he continues to do to this day). He began working for CBS in 1998.[4][3] In addition, Harlan has called Jacksonville Jaguars, Chicago Bears and Green Bay Packers preseason games; basketball games during the now-defunct Goodwill Games, which were owned by Time Warner; college sports on ESPN; and several bowl games during college football seasons. Harlan has also lent his voice on the NBA 2K video game series since 2005. On Monday September 12, 2016, a fan ran onto the field during a Monday Night Football game between the San Francisco 49ers and Los Angeles Rams and Harlan gave a play-by-play call of the fan being tackled by security.
Barstool Sports referred to the call as an "All Timer." [5] In 2017, Harlan was voted National Sportscaster of the Year by the NSMA.[3] Personal lifeHarlan is married with 4 children. His daughter, Olivia, is a sideline reporter for ESPN and is married to NBA player Sam Dekker.[6] References1. ^{{cite news |last=Hiestand|first=Michael|title=Announcer Kevin Harlan knows best of NBA and NCAA hoops worlds|url=https://www.usatoday.com/sports/columnist/hiestand-tv/2010-05-04-harlan-nba-ncaa-basketball_N.htm|newspaper=USA Today|accessdate=16 September 2012|date=4 May 2012}} 2. ^{{cite web|title=NBA on TNT 05-06|url=http://www.tntdrama.com/title/?oid=623948-3842|publisher=TNT|accessdate=16 September 2012}} 3. ^1 2 3 {{cite news|url=http://www.packersnews.com/story/sports/nfl/packers/dougherty/2018/02/18/dougherty-elite-company-green-bays-kevin-harlan/342815002/?hootPostID=e821253793adbc48239a4f03a80d2a67|title=Elite company for Green Bay's Kevin Harlan|last=Dougherty|first=Pete|date=18 February 2018|work=Green Bay Press-Gazette|accessdate=18 February 2018}} 4. ^1 2 {{cite web|title=CBS Sports TV Team |url=http://www.cbssports.com/cbssports/team/kharlan |accessdate=16 September 2012 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120729115906/http://www.cbssports.com/cbssports/team/kharlan |archivedate=29 July 2012 |df= }} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://screengrabber.deadspin.com/kevin-harlans-play-by-play-radio-call-of-the-mnf-idiot-1786562558 |title=Kevin Harlan's Play-By-Play Radio Call Of The MNF Idiot On The Field Is An All-Timer|first=Timothy|last=Burke|website=deadspin.com|accessdate=17 October 2017}} 6. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.nba.com/hawks/gamenight/olivia-harlan-bio/|title=Olivia Harlan Bio|website=Atlanta Hawks|access-date=2017-11-19}} External links
