I think they're all pretty good.

McElroy probably has the biggest future and looks like ESPN is grooming him to be the next Herbstreit. He has his own Sirius/XM show, and he and Spears were just given their own show on SECN. He has a good balance of the technical analysis and opinion, like Herbstreit. And like Herbstreit, you may not always agree with him. He was given big games on ABC to call...namely OU vs. Houston last year.

Spears is a likable personality and he brings an interesting opinion.

Pollack honestly is not bad. But he's quickly being overtaken by the new guys. I can see his fratty personality wearing on people over time.

McElroy and Spears are the future of ESPN with Rece being the face of it all. ESPN just gave Rece a fat contract last year and the premier hosting gig in CFB because he was being wooed by CBS to replace Verne.

That's right, two Bama alums and an LSU alum are the future of CFB on tv...two of them Saban guys.

I guess if bama cant have success in the NFL then having Opie be successful on a declining medium is something to be proud of.

By the time herby is out, and opie is going to take over he will have declined to the people who like him now.

I'm wondering who is replacing Corso. I thought it was going to be pollack, but Corso sure didnt make himself easily replaceable. As he's needed to retire a few yrs back. Starting to feel bad watching his brain skip a few beats when he's talking.
