Clark "Special K" Kellogg grew up in East Cleveland, Ohio, attended Chambers Elementary, W.H.

The highlight was a 74–65 loss in the 1979 state championship game to Columbus East that saw Kellogg score 51 points and grab 24 rebounds.

From 1979 to 1982, Kellogg played for Ohio State University, where he earned All-Big Ten Conference and Most Valuable Player honors; in 1996, he received his marketing degree.

Ted Strickland appointed Kellogg to the university's board of trustees, where he sits today.

However, he only played three full seasons, and portions of two others, for the Pacers before chronic knee problems forced him to retire.

From 1993 to 1994, Kellogg served as a game analyst for the CBS Sports coverage of the NCAA tournament.

He would typically work as the #2 game analyst until around Championship Week when he would move into the studio for the remainder of the season.

[9] During the 2012 NCAA men's tournament, the Ohio Bobcats, for whom Kellogg's son, Nick, played, advanced to the Sweet Sixteen round with a win over South Florida in Nashville.
