He ain't going anywhere. ESPN GameDay legend Lee Corso, 88, has been a staple of CFB Saturday mornings for years. And he plans on continuing that for the 2024 season...

quote:
“I’m gonna be like that guy in Vaudeville,” Corso told Alex Kirshner. “They hook him around the neck, and they pull him off the stage as he keeps talking.”

If Biden can do it, why can't Corso...

OJsLifeCoach•31 months

I think we learned Biden can't do it.

Broadside Bob•31 months

President Corso! Like the sound of that!

eugene1928LSU•31 months

Fact

JYD•31 months

I have no problem with this. It’s hard to watch, but I’ll still take Corso over that jackass Pat McAfee who tries way too hard.

Zarkinletch416•31 months

Lee Corso is GOAT! Keep on keeping on Lee. You da man!

kjntgr•31 months

Oh yea he’s great

udtiger•31 months

He knows he's a goner within weeks if he stops. Only thing that keeps him going.

deernaes•31 months

Just like JoePa and the Bear...

Basura Blanco•31 months

Good for him. Dude is 88 years old and its not like he is doing manual labor. If ESPN doesn't like it, they can fire him.

BatonrougeCajun•31 months

If you slow down you go down

Morpheus•31 months

It would be better off with him making appearances for shorter segments than the whole show.

CanebreakCajun•31 months

Yup that's it. Two segments. The first set and then the pick em segment.

Dadren•31 months

I hope he keeps going for another decade just to piss off all the people who want him gone.

TNoon•31 months

Good for him

FlyinTiger93•31 months

Corso is GameDay. They should role out a new format when he does hang it up.

TommyDaTiger•31 months

Ahhhh fuk it

deltaland•31 months

I have no problem with it. The newer ones suck anyways. I miss Verne on CBS as well. And Jack Cristil doing MSU radio. Maybe it’s just nostalgia but to me the new class of sports shows and announcers don’t do as good of a job

UsingUpAllTheLetters•31 months

They're terribly bland.

eugene1928LSU•31 months

I miss Verme not at all. However I miss Keith Jackson a lot!

Tasty Thrill•31 months

Corso is the man. Glad he is staying

WaterLink•31 months

We're gonna see him croak on live national TV aren't we

Lee Corso

Look, I like Lee a lot. He's been one of the best reasons to watch Game Day for decades but when I saw him on screen this past season, all I could feel was that I was witnessing elder abuse. He looks like an orange mummy and his reaction time is personally painful to watch. As much as Lee Corso has been a part of the college football family, it's time for him to step away. Maybe he could do something else with ESPN, like his own spot for 30 minutes a week, giving his take on the upcoming games. Outside of that, they need to replace him. It's time.

DTRDude•31 months

He’s similar to a punch drunk boxer

Saunson69•31 months

I used to laugh when Lou Holtz dressed as a judge on gamedays night recap on fall Saturdays when ESPN did a jury segment on whatever happened that day in college football. Dude was clueless haha.

BAMAneck•31 months

Good for him. Usually guys his age stop working and that rolling stone starts to gather moss.

Water Mocassin•31 months

Many here are asking, what is vaudeville?

roll to victory•31 months

Awesome news! Is there any chance Rece Davis would step down?..guess not

burreauxxx•31 months

Old people love money

CanebreakCajun•31 months

Do you know what this man has done for growth of college football?
