WXmanTim 88 Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 KHOU announced today that Bob Allen is joining the station as weekday sports anchor. Allen retired from KTRK in January after nearly 40-years at the station. Says the release: "Allen said after being off the air a while, and looking at what promises to be another exciting year for Houston sports, he realized he’s not ready to step away from covering sports just yet." Allen begins reporting to the Allen Parkway studios on April 25th (just in time to kick off May sweeps). My takeaway: there's no way this hasn't been in the works for some time, probably since the day he announced his retirement or signed off from KTRK. And it's the most likely reason why Butch Alsandor left KHOU in March.
