ANNAPOLIS, Md.—Former Navy football great Keenan Reynolds and longtime Navy football beat writer Mike James will join the Navy Football Radio Network this fall as analysts.
James will be the lead analyst on all 12 games, while Reynolds will join James in the booth for every Navy home game, as well as the annual Army-Navy Game presented by USAA. Reynolds will also contribute to the pregame show for all home and away games.
"I am super excited and looking forward to having the opportunity to go a layer deeper on Navy Football on the Navy broadcast," said Reynolds. "Pete Medhurst was the greatest Navy broadcaster of all-time and set the standard for how to do this job at a high level and I hope our group can make him proud by meeting that standard. It will be exciting to be back in Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium this fall."
"I am really excited to have the opportunity to step in the Navy radio booth and call Navy football games," said James. "Sports on the radio, and in particular Navy sports on the radio, have been a big part of my life and it's a big responsibility to do this right. I look forward to working with Joe, Keenan, Keith and Scott to put on a broadcast that will make Navy fans and the late great Pete Medhurst proud."
The duo will join Joe Miller, who is in his 13th year with the network and his first full season as the play-by-play announcer; Keith Mills, in his seventh year as the sideline reporter; and Scott Wykoff, who is in his seventh year in the studio handling pregame, halftime and postgame.
Miller previously was the color analyst alongside the Voice of Navy Athletics, Pete Medhurst, who passed away in January at the age of 55 after a battle with brain cancer. Miller served as the play-by-play announcer for the final six football games last year and has also been the play-by-play announcer for Navy men's and women's lacrosse, men's and women's basketball and men's and women's soccer.
Reynolds ('16) finished his career with a 32-13 record under center, which are the most wins in school history by a quarterback. He finished fifth in the Heisman Trophy voting his senior year and was named a Third-Team All-American by the Associated Press.
He led Navy to a school-record 11 wins against just two losses in 2015, which included wins over Air Force and Army to win the Commander-In-Chief's Trophy and a victory over Pitt to win the Military Bowl. The Mids won the Lambert Trophy, which signifies the best team in the East, for the first time since 1963 and finished the year ranked 18th in the country in both the Associated Press and Coaches polls.
Reynolds was 7-1 in Service Academy games, including a 4-0 mark against Army. He is the only quarterback in the history of the Army-Navy game to win four games. His seven-career touchdowns scored are the most in the history of the Army-Navy game.
Reynolds scored 88 touchdowns in his career, which are the most rushing touchdowns in Division I history and the most total touchdowns in FBS (Football Bowl Subdivision) history. He scored three or more touchdowns in a game 17 times in his career, the most in FBS history. He is the first player in FBS history to score 23 or more rushing touchdowns in a season three different times. His 530-career points scored are also the most in FBS history.
His 4,559 career rushing yards are the most in FBS history by a quarterback and the most in school history by any player. He was just the sixth player in FBS history to rush and pass for 4,000 yards in a career. His 22-career 100-yard rushing games are the most in school history.
Reynolds also set the school record for passing touchdowns with 31, while throwing just eight interceptions in 462 career attempts, giving him the lowest interception percentage in school history.
On Feb. 28, 2016, he became just the fourth player in school history and the first as a current midshipman to have his number retired (#19).
Reynolds and Connecticut basketball standout Breanna Stewart were named co-winners of the 2016 AAU James E. Sullivan Award at the New York Athletic Club in New York City. The Sullivan Award is presented to the outstanding amateur athlete in the United States whose outstanding athletic accomplishments are complemented by qualities of leadership, character and sportsmanship. He is the only Naval Academy athlete to win the award.
Reynolds was drafted in the sixth round by the Baltimore Ravens in the 2016 NFL draft and also had stints with the Washington Redskins and the Seattle Seahawks. He made the active roster with both the Ravens and Seahawks. He was playing with the XFL's Seattle Dragons in 2020 when the league was terminated.
Reynolds served as a cryptologic warfare officer in the Naval Reserves.
James is the publisher of TheMidReport.com and co-host of the Anchors Aweigh podcast, offering in-depth coverage of Navy athletics with a focus on football analysis and program insight. A 1999 graduate of the Naval Academy and former Surface Warfare Officer, James launched The Birddog Blog in 2007 after leaving active duty. His work has also appeared in the Annapolis Capital and on NavySports.com.
