Never want to speak badly of anyone that has a stroke, but I remember in the late 90's and early 2000's that Corso always picked against us. Herbie usually took up for us and Fowler was making trailer park references.
This is the point I am making. Corso was a bad coach, so he brings no credibility to the show in analyzing how good football teams are a generation later. I never remember Corso breaking down an offense or defensive scheme on the show. He is known for "not so fast" followed by some useless statistic and putting on head gear. And Dr. Lou and Mark May put on that fictional court debate with Reece Davis as the judge, that makes no sense. I just decided a few years ago that its not for me. I watch the games, but not the sideshow circus ESPN puts out.
Why do you need to be some elite coach to be credible? It's not like he was some clueless buffoon who thought a football was round. He knows the game well, it just didn't translate to coaching. Coaching and analyzing for TV are two completely different things and the skill sets required for them are completely different as well.
