Nick Saban’s Surprising Move: What His Decision Means for Lee Corso’s Legacy and the Future of College Football
Corso will make his final College GameDay appearance to start the 2025 season before stepping down. Since 1996, the former head coach has made game picks by donning the head of school mascots.
On the Rick Burgess Show, Saban celebrated his departing colleague.
“Lee Corso’s a phenomenal person,” Saban said. “He’s a real professional, has been a part of the show and the tradition of the show for 20-something years. And we’re all going to miss him.”
Saban noted that “everybody looked forward to” Corso’s headgear picks. Burgess, seemingly jokingly, asked if ESPN expects Saban to keep Corso’s tradition alive.
