“As a young kid, it was the impact he had on people. When we did get cable, I’d watch him on a semi-daily basis. That is when I said, ‘I want to do this. I want to be him,’” Seattle Kraken radio play-by-play broadcaster Everett Fitzhugh said. “It was the way he carried himself. Even the way he would sit on the desk with his crisscrossed hands and a pen sticking out. I remember being in school trying to do that same thing. I wanted to be Stuart Scott. I am not even bullshitting. I didn’t know how I was going to even be a broadcaster or how I was going to be on ESPN. But I knew I wanted to go work with Stuart Scott and that I wanted to be Stuart Scott.”
