And it’s believed he’s making history as the first Black director for a championship game in any sport. Grant replaced Bob Fishman, who retired last year after doing 39 Final Fours. Grant joined CBS in 1998. He has worked on the first two weekends at previous NCAA Tournaments, as well as directing NFL, college football and golf coverage.
