Just heartbroken to hear we've lost Mike Hogewood. Mike was the first professional broadcaster to take me under his wing. I wouldn't be at #wral without his recommendation. pic.twitter.com/Bo3ASxB0VZ — Jay Jennings (@skubalon) September 6, 2018

...Hearing the sad news of the passing of ACC broadcast legend, and @lenoirrhyne alum Mike Hogewood. Good guy who was always helpful to up and comers in the profession. Was the keynote at the 2015 CCSHOF induction ceremony. Top notch in my book. — JuJu Phillips (@JuJuPhillips_19) September 5, 2018
