Dick Vitale, the legendary voice of college basketball, is returning to the air for the first time since 2023. The Hall of Fame broadcaster will call the Duke-Wake Forest men's college basketball game on Saturday, Jan. 25 at Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Winston Salem, North Carolina.

Dick Vitale’s planned return to the broadcast booth is being put on hold after an accident that created “near-term physical limitations,” ESPN said Saturday. The accident, which the 85-year-old Hall of Fame broadcaster said he suffered at his home in Florida, is not related to the four cancer battles he’s had for the past three and a half years.
