I mean he has been a figurehead for a while now, but he's been a part of Saturday morning for 40ish years

Senile as he may be, I'd take him all day every day over Pat McAfee.

His first headgear pick was Brutus back in the 90's.

He is working week 1 which will probably be in Columbus for Texas@Ohio State so Brutus could also be his last headgear pick.

Fox went hard after Reece Davis .  Didn't land him.

My favorite Corso pick,  Gators over Nebraska at  Fiesta Bowl because it was on grass.

You can't argue with that!

Years back, I sort of watched GD as a routine and viewed it more of a serious show than a comedy, and I didn't much care for Corso, but when I shifted my POV, I appreciated him more.

I'll sort of miss him, but I almost never watch it any more, haven't for decades now.

Corso used to be OK.

Desmond Howard makes that show unwatchable.

For me, it's unwatchable because it's meaningless, unless you like the quips and comedy of it all.  They have the classic straight man (or men) and some guest and Corso.  I don't personally find it adds anything useful to watching the games later.  It's of course "a thing" when they come to your campus, I suppose.

I liked it when they came to Madison. It took out all of the idiots who tried to crash tailgates every Saturday.
