What the business is saying about Brendan...
"I’ve been fortunate to follow Brendan’s work for a while now, and I’m sure you’ll see what I do: a terrific young play-by-play man on the rise. His poise, preparation, and delivery set him apart, which is truly impressive at such a young age. He’s a pleasure to listen to! Already a pro’s pro."
-Dave O’Brien, ESPN
"The thing that stands out to me the most about Brendan as a broadcaster is the fact that he's extraordinarily thorough. It's really hard for most young broadcasters to realize the amount of homework that goes into properly preparing for a broadcast. Brendan prepares as thoroughly, and as much, as any young person I've ever seen going into a game. He is as thorough a young broadcaster as I've come across in the last several years."
-John Rooke, Providence Friars
"Calling games alongside Brendan for a summer was so effortless. He worked incredibly hard, was an easy-listen, broadcast with confidence, and as a result created some great on-air dialogue. You'd never be able to tell he comes from a small school."
-Lyle Goldstein, ASU Cronkite '20
