Lee Corso’s appearance during ESPNs’ debut College GameDay broadcast on Saturday drew some concerned reactions from viewers. The beloved 87-year-old Corso struggled through his prediction on the national championship game, leading some to question whether the former coach should still be on television.
On Tuesday, his colleague came to Corso’s defense, saying the legendary broadcaster was still ready to do the job.
Speaking as a guest on The Dan LeBatard Show, GameDay host Rece Davis said Corso was still as sharp as ever, and was still more than capable of delivering with his standard flair on the popular weekly pregame show.
