Greg McElroy leaving SEC Network

[checkerboards09]

Sorry if it's already posted somewhere, but I saw a report that McElroy is leaving the SEC Network to join ESPN. What a shame, he was a great analyst and it won't be the same without him.

Great, now he is gonna become a self in titled douche.
Money talks I guess.

I sure hope not. The guy was definitely pure class on the panel and its easy to see why they came after him.

Not surprised at all. GMac is really awesome behind the desk. It was only a matter of time before he got called up to the national stage.

I agree with this. Loved watching/listening to him on the SEC network. He'll continue to do well at the mothership.

They said he'll still do SEC Now takes throughout the week on the network. I guess he'll still have some sort of affiliation since it is partnered with ESPN.

Greg's leaving the SEC Network to work with ESPN. Sounds like one short walk.

I was thinking the same thing. Just a better parking spot closer to the building.

What sucks is we still have Timmy. Mac was a great replacement for Timmy when he tried his second stint in the league. Too bad Timmy came back.

Well that sucks. One of the few analysts I actually enjoy listening to. He is one of the most fair to TN as well. Hopefully he can improve the cess pool that is ESPN.

Is that like an Escape Goat? Or Pocket Presents?

Good for him. He has a bright future. One of the best analysts out there

 

[VolnJC]

Impressive guy...ESPN was smart to hire him.

 

[Catbone]

Best on the SEC Network

More like a valid victorian or a pre Madonna.

At least he's still on the same network coverage & not a totally different station/network like moving to CBS or somewhere else.

 

[BeecherVol]

Meh.

Stuck with TT

I like Mr. Tim Tebow myself on there. He tells it like it is & is a super nice guy. He doesn't say things to hurt players feelings like some others on the SEC Network does like a Marcus Spears.

Charlotte, NC to Bristol, CT sounds like a long walk to me

McElroy is the next Kirk Herbstreit. He's really good. I think he did color commentary for our game vs Mizzou and was an absolute pro.

 

[casetopia]

so now he hates us?

Agree 100%.

McElroy is a very solid pickup for a network that's been losing talent left and right.

If Fox had hired him it would be longer. And even worse, they make you go on the herd.
