Tulsa Radio: Sports Talker Chris Plank Leaves KTBZ

Chris Plank

Radio sports-talk host Chris Plank has departed from Sports KTBZ 1430 AM The Buzz after having been a member of the station’s staff for 18 years.

“As time progresses, I’ll be able to talk more about where I am going and what I’m doing,” Plank wrote in a blog, “but for now, it is with a heavy heart that I make this announcement and decision.”
Plank, 40, is a University of Tulsa graduate. During the last 16 years, he was a presence during The Buzz’s 2-6 p.m. show. During the last 12 years, Plank and Jeremie Poplin were co-hosts.

The Tulsa World reports Plank will continue as a sideline reporter during University of Oklahoma football games and with various roles in Sooner Sports TV programming.

While he no longer will be involved in the station’s weekday afternoon show, Plank’s voice will remain a Buzz commodity as the iHeartMedia station will air his Sunday night national show on Fox Sports Radio.
