College GameDay crew gives update on Lee Corso's health

Lee Corso has missed College GameDay for the second consecutive week. While his condition and/or illness hasn’t been specified, the crew in Lawerence, Kansas made sure fans knew has was doing much better than he did last week.

“Lee Corso not with us this week, and those of you who are with us every week know that [Corso] didn’t feel great last week in Clemson,” Rece Davis said. “Feeling much better, spoke to him yesterday, but still another week to recuperate. We hope get LC back in the chair coming up pretty soon.”

Kirk Herbstreit commented on what he’s heard on Corso’s health as well.

“I think it’s very strange for everybody watching, those us on the set, of course, not to having Lee here, but [Rece Davis] spoke with him, I had a chance to, and [Desmond Howard] as I’m sure you have as well,” Herbstreit said. “He does sound better, but I think by doctor’s orders wasn’t expected to be able to travel this week. But news is good with the test that he’s been receiving. New week he’ll be with us wherever College GameDay is, LC will be back right here where he belongs.”

Just as last week, Davis, Herbstreit, Howard and Pat McAfee will make up the four-man main crew for College GameDay.

Levis has been on the field this week, and was running with the first-team at practice on Wednesday. His practice status on Thursday is unknown as of this writing, but at least for now, according to Stoops, the star quarterback won’t miss Saturday’s SEC East matchup.

Sophomore Kentucky-native Kaiya Sheron would be the presumptive starter is Levis were to be unable to play. Starring in his role at Somerset High School, Sheron threw for 7,080 yards and rushed for 3,353 more in his four-year high school career.
