Where’s Shon Morris these days??

Been a long time since I saw Shon doing any games or studio work. Looked at the Btn site from November and still had him listed.
Hope all is well. My occasional interactions in the late-80’s into 90’s with him were always pleasant.

I've always thought Shon was the top color announcer for the BTN.

He was, and it wasn't close.

It appears he’s got a full-time gig with Special Olympics Illinois, which is great.

Who did? My records also show it was Cory Provus and Morris on the call.

Sounds like Jess Settles to me.

Wow, you're right. (And it is Settles, he's identified at the start of the second half in that video.) Must have been a last minute change, the game notes say Morris. Thanks!

Pretty sure Shon is currently calling the Summit League tournament on something called "Midco Sports", which is being carried by ESPN+

He is, but only the two games today.
