Former St. John's and UCLA head coach Steve Lavin joins Fox Sports for the network's extensive college basketball coverage beginning this fall with the 2015-16 season. The announcement was made today by John Entz, Fox Sports President, Production and Executive Producer.
Lavin primarily serves as a studio analyst for college basketball coverage on FOX broadcast network and FS1, appearing on pregame, halftime and postgame shows plus the weekly FS1 program INSIDE THE BIG EAST. He also calls select games for Fox Sports throughout the season and makes appearances on FS1 signature programs AMERICA'S PREGAME and Fox Sports LIVE. "We are absolutely thrilled to welcome Coach Lavin to the Fox Sports family," said Entz. "Steve is a successful coach and engaging teacher with great television presence. He has been a friend to Fox Sports since we began covering the BIG EAST IN 2013, and we could not be happier to bring him on full-time." "It's a true privilege to join the Fox Sports family," Lavin said. "I'm eager to contribute as an analyst on our college basketball coverage. My 17 years of coaching experience in the Big East and Pac-12 make this opportunity with Fox Sports an ideal fit in terms of having both a familiarity and affinity for these two outstanding conferences."Videos
