He is one of those honored by a tile in the Pullman Walk of Fame.
His tile – see photo taken by “Pullman :: Cup of the Palouse” blog in July 2017 -- is among those in the “Class of 2003,” the first enshrined on the walk.
Tile is in the section honoring "WSU Presidents & Distinguished. Members of the WSU Community."
According to the Pullman Chamber of Commerce, the walk was “established to honor those individuals who have served the Pullman community in a significant way, promoted goodwill, improved the quality of life for Pullman residents or brought acclaim to the area through their contributions to society."
The Chamber’s Walk of Fame brochure says, “Keith Jackson WSU Class of 1954. As an ABC-TV sports commentator, he is the only individual ever elected as National Sportscaster of the Year five times.”
A story in the Nov. 14, 2003, Moscow Pullman Daily News said, the walk was a “feature snippet during Saturday's ABC Sports television broadcast of the football game between WSU and UCLA. One of the squares honors ABC sportscaster and commentator Keith Jackson, a WSU graduate. The walk was praised as a unique civic project.”
