Jason Whitlock‘s return to 610 Sports is not imminent, contrary to the Internet rumor. “I’ve had no conversations with Jason about a job here,” Ryan Maguire, the program director at the AM sports-talk station, says.

Someone using the handle “bigsexy,” Whitlock’s nickname, announced a March 1 start date on kcforum.net Monday night. “It’s going to be good to do talk radio again,” the typist said. “Can’t wait.”

Whitlock hosted an afternoon show on 610 before abruptly quitting on March 1, 2005.
