Bryan Mays returns to KVUE Austin mornings


The old AM gang is getting back together at KVUE Austin as Bryan Mays returns to the Daybreak morning newscast with Yvonne Nava starting Monday, April 7, 2025.

Back in July 2020, it was a teary goodbye as Mays left for evenings, swapping roles with then KVUE anchor Mike Rush

Mays and Nava had anchored together in the mornings for eight years at that point. In the official return announcement, KVUE states that the duo was often the top-rated morning team in the market.

So what does that mean for current Nava morning co-anchor Rob Evans?

"Rob will continue his role in 2024, leading our newest venture—a solo anchor show on KVUE+ called Daybreak+," KVUE news director Travis Sattiewhite told mikemcguff.com. "He’ll also contribute content and support the Midday and 4 p.m. newscasts."

Now celebrating 20 years with KVUE, Mays joined the Central Texas station in 2004 as a weekend sports anchor. 

Before returning to Austin, where he studied journalism at the University of Texas at Austin, Mays served as Sports Director at the former cable network News 9 San Antonio (now Spectrum News 1 Texas) and KTRE 9 Lufkin.

Happening down in Houston the same morning at TEGNA's sister station, KHOU 11, is the morning debut of Jacob Rascon.
