ESPN Radio will bring SportsCenter anchor Dari Nowkhah and NFL Draft expert Mel Kiper, Jr. together for a four hour block on Saturday mornings starting this weekend. Aptly named “Dari and Mel”, the show will preview the weekend’s action plus feature interviews with newsmakers, athletes and coaches. Mel Kiper, Jr. has been a staple on ESPN Radio and so has Nowkhah. Now, they’ll team up for a show that will air up until the college football season.
We have your announcement.
