Dean Blevins agrees to four-year extension as KWTV-9 sports director | News OK (http://newsok.com/dean-blevins-agrees-to-four-year-extension-as-kwtv-9-sports-director/article/3872434)
After 16 years at KWTV-9, sports director Dean Blevins said he has agreed to a four-year contract extension with the station.
“We will decide then whether to keep plugging away or to call it a day,” said Blevins, 57. “Even if I were to stop doing television, it's not as if I would retire.”
Blevins, a former OU quarterback and point guard, said he has enjoyed co-hosting “The Oklahoma Sports Blitz,” 10:25 p.m. Sundays, with KOTV-6 sports director John Holcomb.
“We kind of tweak it periodically,” he said. “It's the first of it's kind, and it's the only statewide show.”
Blevins also worked 13 years as a college football analyst and sideline reporter for ABC, CBS and ESPN.
