On Wednesday, Nov. 11, 2026, Dan Hicks, longtime NBC sports broadcaster, Notre Dame Football play-by-play announcer and husband of 1983 graduate Hannah Storm, passed away suddenly.
The following is a quote from James E. Rohr Director of Athletics Pete Bevacqua on his passing.
“We are deeply saddened by the news of the passing of a great friend of Notre Dame, Dan Hicks. Our prayers are with Dan’s wife, Hannah Storm, a Notre Dame graduate, and their three daughters. Dan was a fixture here on campus and in the broadcast booth as one of the great voices for Notre Dame Football. On a personal note, Dan was a former colleague of mine at NBC Sports and, more importantly, a dear friend over the course of the last quarter century. We will all miss him dearly.”
