How has Josh Hoover influenced the careers of his younger siblings? 

Josh Hoover has not only made a name for himself at TCU, but he has also quietly influenced the lives of his younger siblings. Sports had been just in the Hoover family’s DNA as they grew up. As Josh put it, “It was always a part of our lives. My parents never pushed it on us… We just wanted to play and be active and be the best we could at whatever we did.” That drive rubbed off on Caleb, who became a baseball player, and even Hannah, who discovered her own niche in sports journalism. She grew up in the same competitive, sports-mad family, even though she wasn’t chasing touchdowns or home runs, and she carried that into her career by covering the games.

Inside Josh Hoover’s Relationship with His Siblings

Josh Hoover’s bond with his siblings extends far beyond the typical brother-sister dynamic. Being seven years older than Josh, Hannah has always been the “cool big sister.” When she got the job as a sports reporter at KOCO-5 in Oklahoma City, she joked, “My goal is to be able to interview Josh or Caleb on the sidelines.” That dream essentially came true last year. She acknowledges that despite the age difference, “We never had the fighting or the bickering… despite the age gap, we’ve always been really close. I think that’s partially our parents always encouraging us to show up for each other.” Hannah calls him once a week, and they don’t even discuss football most of the time. She laughs when she says that Josh’s favorite method for staying in touch is simply sending her TikToks. Hannah called it a “pinch-me moment” when all three siblings and their parents ended up in one place when OSU played TCU in Fort Worth.
