Dallas Wesley Durham (born January 25, 1966, in Greensboro, North Carolina) is an American sportscaster. He is a play-by-play announcer for ESPN and ACC Network coverage of college football and basketball.

He was also Georgia Tech's Director of Broadcasting and is the radio play-by-play announcer for the Atlanta Falcons. Growing up in that environment gave Wes the opportunity to see behind the scenes of sports and sports broadcasting.

Broadcasting Play-by-play Beginning with the 2004 NFL season, Durham also took on the radio play-by-play duties for the Atlanta Falcons in addition to his responsibilities at Georgia Tech. In 2011, when Raycom Sports began producing ACC college football games to air on Fox Sports Net (under a sub-license from ESPN), Durham was called upon to be the play-by-play announcer due to his long history working in the ACC. He was teamed with analyst James Bates. During his time at Elon, Wes interned at local radio station WBAB in Burlington NC where he was on the broadcast team announcing for WM Williams Bulldogs football.
