Love coach, wish he could be coach Corso forever on the show, but I'm one that thought he should've given it up a few years ago, its been a hard watch lately the way he struggles.

I still watch it every time I can, and I will continue to do so. It kicks off the college football Saturday, and I enjoy it.

As to the people who get all wet in their shorts and run to the keyboard to proclaim that they don't watch, then don't watch. The show will continue without you, but Corso will be missed.

Gonna seem strange without Coach ending the show with the mascot head.

Picked LSU mascot 25 times. Wonder how may times he picked against the tigers?

Gonna miss him on Saturdays


Good question! I'd like to know how many LSU games he called for ESPN.


And I agree he's been sliding down the last few years, but I'm glad they are giving him a "retirement send off" during the actual season. He's deverved that honor.

If while sundowning, he was better than McAfee's dumb arse. Can't stand that guy.
Gotta be weird for Herbie. Coach was definitely his mentor.

I'd take Corso just propped up in the chair in an embalmed state over that arse-clown, drugged-up McAfee, who thinks the show is all about him.

Much respect! He’s 89 yrs old. Most of us will be lucky to see 85. At 85 he was still killing it!

you guys are delusional, that whole show should have been euthanized 10 years ago, and not saying he should be euthanized but he's been a veg for about that long

It was tough to watch the last few years.

Thanks for the memories, Coach.

don't know why you're getting downvoted- you're absolutely correct.

We can all love Corso, but yet acknowledge that he hung on far too long.

Those two aren't mutually exclusive.
