Culhane has served as the lead radio voice of North Dakota State for the past six years.
“It is truly an honor to be named play-by-play voice for the Florida State Seminoles,” Culhane said. “To follow in the footsteps of a legend like Gene Deckerhoff is an opportunity and a challenge I will look to live up to every single day. My family and I can’t wait to get to Tallahassee and immerse ourselves in all the traditions of Florida State. Go Noles!”
From 2013-2016, Culhane was at West Virginia doing women’s basketball and baseball play by play. He was with Nebraska from 2007-2013.
