Travis, who renewed and extended his relationship with FSR this past summer, joined the 24/7 sports radio network in 2016 to lead its weekday morning lineup in the 6 to 9 a.m. ET timeslot. Originating from Nashville, Tenn., Outkick The Coverage features Travis’ informed, outspoken, fearless and often funny commentary on the latest sports headlines, as well as interviews and listener interaction. The program has experienced impressive year-over-year audience gains. On flagship station AM 570 L.A. Sports/KLAC in Los Angeles, Outkick The Coverage has more than tripled its ratings among Adults 25-54 and Men 25-54. (Sources: Nielsen Audio, Dec.’18 vs. Dec.’17, PPM, AQH, A25-54 & M25-54). 

“We couldn’t be more pleased with the growth of Outkick the Coverage,” said Don Martin, SVP Sports Programming for Premiere Networks, and Scott Shapiro, VP of Sports Programming for Premiere Networks, in a joint statement.  “Clay and his team have consistently set new listening records, which promises for continued momentum and a lot more success in the future.  We are excited to share many more achievements with our affiliate partners around the country.”

Travis, who recently joined FS1’s first-ever, daily gambling TV show Lock It In as a co-host alongside Rachel Bonnetta, “Cousin Sal” Iacono, and Todd Fuhrman, continues to host his Outkick The Show webcast and podcast – the largest and longest-running daily sports show streamed live on Facebook and Periscope.  

In July of 2007, Travis published his first book Dixieland Delight, a critically-acclaimed chronicle of his 2006 tour of all 12 Southeastern Conference football stadiums and his entertaining fan experiences at every stop. The Nashville native and former lawyer previously wrote columns for CBSSports.com for four years before joining Deadspin as an editor in 2008.  During fall of that year, he began his second book, On Rocky Top: A Front-Row Seat to the End of an Era, an all-access tell-all documenting the University of Tennessee football program over the course of its season. His third book, Republicans Buy Sneakers, Too: How the Left is Ruining Sports with Politics, was released by Harper Collins in September 2018. After spending 2009-2011 as a columnist for AOL FanHouse, Travis launched Outkick The Coverage, then an SEC-centric news and opinion blog, in July 2011. Gaining strong traction through the world of social media, Outkick became an internet phenomenon, attracting an average of two million unique visitors each month. He also co-hosted the top-rated 3HL on 104.5 The Zone in Nashville for five years. A graduate of George Washington University as well as Vanderbilt Law School, Travis is married with three children, and lives in Nashville, Tennessee.
