    Lee Corso is going to die on the air..........

    What a treasure he has been for CFB the last 35 years or so on the air, but this is so sad watching him on College Gameday, struggle to get his words out.

    two strokes and 87 years on earth, has caught up to him.

    gravity always wins.

    to the Great Lee Corso.

    I hope he stays on Gameday as long as he can. I don’t really care that he can’t speak that well anymore. He’s entertaining. Des, Herb, and Corso ARE College Gameday

    I guess he is not running for president as his mental capacity is diminished.

    He's had meatloaf for brains for the past quarter century.

    He became an insta-legend when he put on that elephant head.

    He’s earned the right to go as long as he wants. Does he slur his words? Yes. Does he lose his train of thought? Yes. All he’s done for the game, the players and fans override it. He’s a national treasure.

    Not too sure if it is not Desmond Howard with the senile brain. He picked Baylor and Utah for the final four.

    If he dies on camera, it is probably exactly how he wanted to go.

    I still love Lee Corso being there. When they replace him with Houston Nutt you’ll agree with me

    And when he starts to get haywire, Herbie brings him back on topic. Fun to watch!

    houston nutt is A NUT

    i agree that he will stink but he won't get the gig. maybe lou holtz comes back from "the grave" ?

    it is still sad to watch a legend come apart like this in old age while on the air.

    Beano Cook died in Oct 2012 as the CFB season was in full swing, so it would not surprise if LC did also. very sad

    To be honest... Lee will always be a legend... but I'm with Landers on this one... its really unwatchable.... no flow. The only thing remotely entertaining now is Bear with his picks. But he doesn't know sh## either.

    ESPN typically cans oldies... I'm surprised Lee is still scheduled to go full time on Game Day.

    I think this idiot picked Pitt, Michigan, Texas AM and Baylor.

    Not sure what ESPN sees in DesDumb.

    Liked when he did the Thursday night game commentary with Tirico and Herbstreit. Still fun having him on Gameday though.
