Oh my! Nothing represents University of Florida Gator sports better than its affable longtime play-by-play announcer Mick Hubert.

A graduate of Illinois State University, Mick has long served as the voice of University of Florida Athletics.

Prior to his arrival in Gainesville, Hubert served as sports director of WHIO-TV in Dayton, Ohio where he was also the play-by-play man for Dayton Athletics.
