He has been tapped to replace SVP on ESPN radio. I hate Kanell and will never listen to him. Why is he getting pushed so hard. Espn is really scrapping the bottom of the barrell lately. Are the cuts hurting this much?

Because he's awesome, people hate him for no reason, but still listen.

He's like the perfect ESPN personality.

I don't care that he trolls the SEC, I just don't think he's a good fit with Russillo.

He's awesome with Russillo. He's gonna make that show so college football centered.

Would much prefer Chris Rix with his perfect tan and highlighted tips or God himself Wyatt Sexton.

Drew Weatherford not good enough to make the cut?

Kanell is good when he drops his anti-SEC schtick. It worked out well for him getting such a high profile gig.

He's next in line after Xavier Lee.

I think he and Russilo work pretty well together, and I used to really dislike Kanell. Now that Jameis is out of FSU, I think I can listen to him.

I'd prefer to have Dari Nowkah permanently replace SVP but that's just too good for ESPN to consider.

Adnan would have been my number 1 choice but Kanell is better than the rest. Anything but that the hip hop Hebrew redskins fan


edit: i just miss SVP. That show was perfect

people forget that when he first came out, he was really good. He didnt troll the SEC until a year or so into his role, and he did it to gain attention, obviously. It was a desperate move, but he is back to being similar to when he came up. He's pretty solid and I think he works well with RR

I don't get it, Russilo needs to keep bringing in people to test... It'll be obvious when the right person is found but Kanell ain't the guy.

I don't mind his anti-SEC lingo. But he tries too hard to be a bro. Which would be way too much with Russillo.

I think this is right, plus I bet ESPN locked him up for cheap. Cheap trolls are valuable to ESPN
