Is Chris Stewart going to take over?

It sounds that way.

quote:

Longtime Alabama football radio voice Eli Gold, who has served Crimson Tide fans as a play-by-play announcer for 35 years, will not return to the Crimson Tide Sports Network in fall of 2024, according to sources with knowledge of the situation not affiliated with the university.

Chris Stewart, CTSN's play-by-play voice for Alabama basketball, is likely to take over the role. He would likely stay in his role as men's basketball announcer, too.

Per another tweet and a quote from Eli that this was not of his choosing and that the U made the decision not to bring him back. I assume they wanted a full x PxP and did not want another year of a home crew and an away crew. Who knows, but KD may have had a minor roll in making the call.
