Seemingly finished as a football coach, Lee Corso changed course and entered broadcasting in 1987. The rest is headgear-wearing history.

It’s the end of an era for early Saturday morning college football programming as iconic broadcaster Lee Corso is set to retire from ESPN’s College Gameday following the show’s Week 1 broadcast on August 30.

Legendary ESPN broadcaster Lee Corso is set to retire from his role on College GameDay after 38 years of headgear picks, the network announced on Thursday. Corso, who will turn 90 in August, will be a part of one final show in Week 1 of the 2025 regular season this fall.
