Way has been the play-by-play announcer for Texas football and men's basketball since 2001 and has been the play-by-play for women's basketball for even longer. Way, who is also a co-host of The Sports Buffet on AM-1300 The Zone, has been involved in calling Texas high school football games since the 1980's when he did an hour-long show on KRLD.

Way is joined by Roger Wallace as the color analyst and Quan Cosby as the sideline reporter during Texas football broadcast. There has been no announcement yet about his replacement, according to the Statesman.
