After leaving football, Logan began a career in radio. Logan joined the Denver Broncos radio booth in 1990, initially serving as a color analyst before shifting to play-by-play in 1996. He, and KRFX morning-drive host Rick Lewis currently call the Broncos games on 850 KOA radio.
From 1993 to 2005, Logan and Scott Hastings hosted "The Zoo" on 850 KOA. After Hastings's departure from the show, Logan continued to broadcast during the same time period with other radio personalities. From 2005 to 2011, Logan and Lois Melkonian hosted a show in the same time period called "The Ride Home." In 2011 Melkonian moved to Houston and the show was renamed the "Dave Logan Show." He then was paired with Dave Krieger and later with Susie Wargin through 2015.
Logan was the host of the "Logan and Lewis" show (weekdays, 9AM to 12PM) until September 17, 2021, on KOA. He co-hosted the show with Rick Lewis and Kathy Lee.
Logan moved to a program rechristened The Denver Sports Zoo for the 3 to 6 p.m. shift, which had been helmed by Alfred Williams and JoJo Turnbeaugh, but now spotlights Williams and Logan kicking off September 20, 2022.
Logan was the 1997 Broadcast Citizen of the Year in Colorado, and has won Colorado Sportscaster of the Year three times (1992, 1993, and 1998).
Coaching
Despite being a full-time radio personality, Logan began coaching high school football in 1993 at Arvada West. He then moved to Chatfield in 2000 and to J. K. Mullen High School in 2003. As of 2017, Logan had taken his teams to the playoffs 22 times and won eight state championships in 24 seasons of coaching.
On January 11, 2012, Mullen's president and CEO Ryan Clement announced that Logan would no longer be coaching the team because the school wanted a coach "who can be a full-time member of the school community and be engaged in every facet." Days after his firing, Mullen High School self-reported various recruiting violations to the Colorado High School Athletic Association. In August 2012, the CHSAA concluded its investigation by placing Mullen on a one-year probation and cleared Logan of any wrongdoing. Mullen officials also indicated the infractions were not related to the firing. Two weeks after being fired from Mullen, Logan was hired to coach football at Mullen's rival Cherry Creek High School; Logan's team there won the 5A state championship in 2014, 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022.
Logan is the only person in Colorado prep history to coach Division 5A championship football teams at four different schools. He is known for donating his coaching salary to his assistant coaches.
