Former Georgia Lineman Josh Brock Returns Home as New Voice on Bulldogs Sports Network Radio Broadcast Team
Josh Brock, the former Cartersville High School standout and University of Georgia offensive lineman, is coming home—not with pads and cleats, but with a microphone and a wealth of football knowledge. The Georgia Bulldogs Sports Network has announced that Brock will join its radio broadcast team as the new color analyst, marking a full-circle moment for the one-time All-SEC lineman whose voice will now resonate through the same airwaves that once chronicled his battles in the trenches of Sanford Stadium.
Brock’s return to the Georgia football family comes at a pivotal moment for the Bulldogs, who are eyeing another run at a national championship in 2025 under head coach Kirby Smart. While Smart and his team prep on the field, Brock’s job will be to help guide fans through every snap, every drive, and every pivotal moment with insight forged from his playing days and honed during his time as a broadcaster in the college football media space.
For Georgia fans, this is more than just a new voice on the airwaves—it’s a familiar face stepping into a cherished role. Brock’s Georgia roots run deep. He was a three-year starter at offensive guard for the Bulldogs from 2001 to 2004, helping anchor the line during one of the most successful stretches in program history under Mark Richt. Known for his intelligence, toughness, and leadership, Brock was widely respected both on and off the field. Now, two decades later, he returns as a trusted voice who can contextualize the physicality of the game, decode schemes, and offer analysis that cuts to the heart of what Georgia football is all about.
The Georgia Bulldogs Sports Network, the longtime home for Bulldogs radio broadcasts, is thrilled to welcome Brock to the booth. In a statement released with the announcement, network officials praised Brock’s “deep football acumen, unique connection to the program, and passion for telling the story of Georgia football the right way.” He will be partnering with play-by-play broadcaster Scott Howard, one of the most experienced and respected voices in SEC radio. Together, they form a pairing that blends institutional knowledge, technical insight, and rich storytelling—everything fans want in their gameday experience.
Josh Brock’s transition to the booth is the latest chapter in a journey that’s always been defined by his love for the game and the Bulldogs. After his playing career, which included earning All-SEC recognition and numerous academic honors, Brock dabbled in coaching and later moved into broadcasting. His resume includes stints as a college football analyst for several regional sports networks and a growing reputation as a sharp, articulate observer of the sport. With a clear, confident delivery and a keen eye for the mechanics of line play, Brock carved out a niche for himself as one of the sport’s most underrated voices in media.
But even as his broadcasting profile grew, the pull of Athens and Georgia football never really left. Brock has frequently returned to Georgia for alumni events, charity work, and appearances on pregame shows and fan podcasts. Those close to him say he’s long dreamed of one day lending his voice to the same broadcast that meant so much to him as a player and fan. That dream has now become reality.
In his new role, Brock will bring a unique perspective that few can match. Offensive line play is one of the most misunderstood elements of football for the casual fan, but Brock has a knack for breaking it down in a way that’s both entertaining and informative. Expect to hear him illuminate the intricacies of Georgia’s protection schemes, highlight the battles in the trenches, and provide a window into what makes the Bulldogs’ offensive machine hum. He also brings the rare combination of having played at Georgia during a turning point era and keeping a close eye on how the modern program has evolved under Kirby Smart’s leadership.
Speaking about the opportunity, Brock expressed both gratitude and excitement. “This is such a special opportunity for me—not just because it’s Georgia, but because this program and this fanbase have meant everything to me,” he said. “Some of the most formative years of my life happened in Athens. Now I get to be a part of bringing that experience to fans every Saturday. It’s a huge honor, and I don’t take it lightly.”
He also gave a nod to former radio voices of the Bulldogs, noting their influence on his decision to pursue broadcasting in the first place. “Larry Munson, Scott Howard, Eric Zeier—those voices defined Georgia football for so many of us growing up and playing here,” Brock said. “To even be mentioned in the same sentence is humbling. I just hope to carry on that legacy in my own way.”
For Scott Howard, who has called Georgia games since 1993 and assumed full-time play-by-play duties in 2008, the addition of Brock brings both continuity and fresh energy. “Josh brings everything you’d want in a partner,” Howard said. “He understands the game, he understands Georgia, and most importantly, he understands the fans. He’s going to be a natural in the booth.”
The timing of Brock’s addition couldn’t be better. With Georgia once again in the hunt for an SEC title and a College Football Playoff berth, interest in the program is sky-high. Every snap, every fourth-down decision, every Kirby Smart fist pump becomes part of a larger narrative that fans crave. In this high-stakes, hyper-analyzed environment, the role of the radio analyst becomes even more crucial. Listeners want insight—not just enthusiasm. Brock’s ability to provide both could quickly make him a fan favorite.
And for longtime Georgia supporters, there’s something inherently satisfying about hearing a former Bulldog who truly gets it narrate the action. Josh Brock has lived the grind. He’s walked through the tunnel. He’s played in the Cocktail Party, taken the field at the SEC Championship, and knows what it means to bleed red and black. His insight isn’t speculative—it’s lived.
In a college football world increasingly driven by NIL deals, transfer portals, and branding, Brock’s story is a refreshing reminder that some things still matter the old-fashioned way: connection, loyalty, and love for the alma mater. He embodies those values, and he’s poised to bring them to every broadcast.
The move also represents a strategic step for Georgia’s athletic department, which has invested heavily in enhancing fan engagement across platforms. Adding a voice like Brock’s signals a commitment to delivering not just access, but authenticity. In the age of Twitter takes and highlight reels, the radio call remains one of the purest forms of storytelling in sports. And with Josh Brock now part of the booth, Georgia fans can rest assured that their Saturdays will be filled with smart, passionate coverage.
As the 2025 season nears, Brock’s first official assignment will be Georgia’s season opener—an anticipated clash that will no doubt draw national attention. He’ll be there, headset on, ready to help tell the next chapter of Georgia football. But make no mistake: for Josh Brock, this isn’t the start of something new. It’s a homecoming.
And for the Bulldog Nation tuning in every Saturday, it’s a voice they didn’t know they needed—until now.
