I don't know why people take him seriously when he talks about the SEC, he openly admits he trolls the SEC.

Obviously joking. I find it hard NOT to like Kannell.

It's effective and gets people. I'm not sure i'd call it hilarious. It's kinda lame for a grown man.

He's just fricking with Booger because he was fricking with him about being 80 pounds heavier and running a similar 40 time

It's hilarious that people still get pissed at it, what he's actually saying isn't funny. It just proves how dumb the average fan is

It was a joke guys. Granted he went to Florida State, but he's still allowed to say something in jest.

Yeah, because FSU is better academically than Vandy or basically any other SEC school (I might make an exception for Missouri).

Well, FSU is probably the third ranked school in Florida (ranked behind Miami and UF, didn't check any others).

Also ranked behind Vandy, Georgia, and A&M.

But I'm pretty sure he was just taking a dig at booger

I agree, but it has gained him a lot more visibility and likely a lot more money. He's been at ESPN for 6 years and was a pretty forgettable personality until he began stirring the pot.

Now he's Russillo's partner, one of the main studio guys on gamedays and the MSB starts threads about him.

I love it when Ryen kills him for it. It's really become a great show

Meh, he went to a school who's biggest rival was the SEC's best team at the time he was at FSU. He also had to listen to Spurrier go on and on about Bowden. Not surprised he feels the way he does.

He was clearly poking fun at FSU's lack of academic prowess in a self deprecating manner. That was the whole damn joke.

Zero percent chance he believes FSU is a better school than UF academically.

He trolls for notoriety.

I don't blame him for two reasons:
1. We're an easy group to troll because SEC fans (for that matter, southerners in general) are very easily rustled and quick to reward it with clicks and views whilst seething in anger.
2. He's adopted the contrarian shtick that made Skip Bayless so famous. The SEC is his LeBron.
