Former Bulls announcer Tom Dore talks about his Missouri playing days

Tom Dore played for Norm Stewart and Mizzou Basketball in the late-1970s before taking on a long career as a broadcaster. He worked college basketball games for Missouri, Texas, SMU, and others before joining the Chicago Bulls’ broadcasting crew for nearly 20 years. He was kind enough to chat with us recently.

Raggs: From looking at the rosters, you played at Mizzou from 1977 to 1980.

Dore: Yes, I was a redshirt in ’76 and then I played there from '77 through ’80.

R: What was the deciding factor that led you to Missouri?
