ESPN confirms if Donald Trump’s appearance at Texas vs Tennessee caused audio issues on TV broadcast
President Donald Trump’s appearance at the Texas Longhorns vs. Tennessee Volunteers college football game was expected to disrupt radio communications.
ESPN has confirmed that audio issues experienced during their broadcast of the Texas vs. Tennessee college football game were not caused by President Donald Trump's appearance. The announcers, Chris Fowler and Kirk Herbstreit, encountered technical difficulties in the same segment as Laura Rutledge, who discussed the arrangement of radio communications with the Secret Service.
Both Texas and Tennessee teams had worked with the Secret Service to ensure their radio frequencies were cleared and had contingency plans for coach-to-player communications. ESPN sources told Front Office Sports that the technical problems were unlikely related to Trump's presence at the game.
