ESPN College GameDay analyst Lee Corso is set to bow out from the show after almost five decades later this year, it has been announced.
Corso, who turns 90 on August 7, first joined the College GameDay panel all the way back in 1987.
The legendary broadcaster plans to retire after Week 1 of the 2025 season at the end of August.
‘My family and I will be forever indebted for the opportunity to be part of ESPN and College GameDay for nearly 40 years,’ he said in a statement released by the network.
‘I have a treasure of many friends, fond memories and some unusual experiences to take with me into retirement.’
Corso is most famous for his trademark headgear picks on College GameDay, which sees him wear the mascot head of the team he is choosing to win, as well as his ‘not so fast, my friend’ retort whenever he disagreed with a fellow panel member.
