One thing Desmond Howard loves about working on ESPN’s GameDay is the ability to discuss not only the X’s and O’s of college football, but also the issues surrounding the game.
Whether it involves players and their feelings regarding racism or the raging debate regarding the Big Ten opting to postpone the fall season because of COVID-19 concerns while three Power 5 conferences forge on, Howard appreciates the opportunity to discuss them with his GameDay colleagues, Rece Davis, Lee Corso and Kirk Herbstreit.
Howard, the Michigan standout who won the 1991 Heisman Trophy and has been part of ESPN since 2005, has signed a multi-year extension as a college football analyst on GameDay, the network announced Thursday.
