After a few months of leaving college football fans in the dark, ESPN’s Pat McAfee finally made a decision about his future on popular weekend show “College GameDay.”
McAfee kicked off Wednesday’s “Pat McAfee Show” with his formal announcement where he informed everyone he was indeed returning for his third season as a guest host.
“I am returning to ‘College GameDay’ and although I don’t want to make a big deal out of it, I know it is a big [expletive] deal that it’s happening,” McAfee said. “There was some drama that started lingering, we had chatted about it me, [ESPN president of content] Burke [Magnus] and [ESPN chairman] Jimmy [Pitaro], obviously, whenever the licensing of the show conversation was taking place. … When you get offered the opportunity to join the ‘College GameDay,’ you can’t say no to that. You’re talking about one of the greatest shows in the history of television.”
