The Ticket’s Corby Davidson has announced that he has signed a five-year deal to remain at the sportstalk radio station.
The host of “The Hardline” on 96.7 FM/1310 (KTCK) took to Twitter/X with the news of the agreement.
“Thirty years ago I walked into the Ticket radio station as a kid, and I knew within about 5 seconds it’s where I wanted to be,” Davidson said in his post. “It was a magical place. The energy was off the charts. I was hooked.”
The Dallas Morning News reports Davidson has been on the air for almost the entirety of the station’s run as the dominant figure in Dallas-Fort Worth sports talk. The Ticket is celebrating the 30th anniversary of its sign-on this month.
The station has recently lost Ticket stalwarts Norm Hitzges, who retired from the 10-noon slot he’d held for two decades, and “The Hang Zone” hosts Dan McDowell and Jake Kemp, who were ousted from the station after failed contract negotiations in 2023 and have since reinvented themselves in podcast/Patreon form.

Davidson though, who according to his post started at the station as an intern and eventually worked his way up to afternoon drive host, is there to stay.
Davidson closed his post by saying the deal with the station “[ensures] I will begin and end my work life there. Love my team, love our show, love that place.”
