Probably past time, but still a little sad

Corso to end four-decade run with 'GameDay'

ESPN analyst Lee Corso, widely known for his headgear picks and "not so fast, my friend" retort, will retire from "College GameDay" in August.

But these past few years…..

It'll be sad to see him go and that show on 8/30 will be a tear jerker but you are correct. It was way past time.

 

[Dawgg]

I'm glad he's at least getting one last show. 40 years is a long time to be doing anything and 90 is a long time to work.

I'll miss having him on the show. Honestly, even in his codgerly later years, the headgear pick and his random misspeaks were kind of peak points of Gameday.

 

[thatsbaseball]

I enjoyed him. One of the saddest parts is he's retiring just when college football so badly needs someone to cheer things up a bit.

I don't think there's anyone who can say anything bad about Lee Corso. He will be missed for sure.

The one who declared Pork Chop Womack has the best nickname ever. The end of an era for sure.

I can't stand him, never been able to watch him. Columbiadawg2 said the last show will be a tear jerker, not for me. Now if they just get rid of Pat McAfee I might watch again. Corso of late especially has reminded me of Joe Biden

 

[GloryDawg]

He is a little guy. I could not believe how tiny he is. I met him about 10 years ago at a company function.

 

[L4Dawg]

He was pretty good till he had his stroke. That show is absolutely unwatchable now, and NOT because of Corso.

 

[Walkthedawg]

He came to State in 2006 or 2007 to speak. I remember going to it. Was in Bost. Didn’t sugar coat things during the Q&A. Basically said in the nicest way possible that MSU wouldn’t sniff a football natty… ever.

From Lee Corso to Pat Mcafee….. seamless…

 

[hdogg]

He's also on record saying he doesn't like weird al, or eclipses. Sigh...

 

[AttalaDawg72]

About 3 years too late. He clearly has dementia. So sad.

 

[OopsICroomedmypants]

He looks pretty good for a 90 year old. Hope me makes it to 100 if he can keep his mind clear. I like talking to older people, but it tears me up to see folks with dementia.

 

[PBRME]

Corso was the only reason I watched Gameday since the SEC Network started. Flip at the end to hear his picks and see the head gear. After that it’s usually downhill the rest of the day.
