SEC Network Hires Tim Tebow for Pregame Show SEC Nation, Additional ESPN Duties « ESPN MediaZone

Former Florida quarterback and Heisman winner, Tim Tebow, has been hired as a college football analyst for the SEC Network launching in August 2014. Through a multi-year agreement, Tebow’s primary role will be as an analyst for SEC Nation, the network’s traveling pregame show that will originate from a different SEC campus each week beginning August 28, 2014. In the months leading up to launch and after, he will contribute to a variety of ESPN platforms including SportsCenter, ESPN Radio, and the network’s Heisman Trophy coverage, offering in-depth perspective as a legendary Southeastern Conference player.

On Monday, Jan. 6, Tebow will make his first appearance as an ESPN analyst during pregame coverage of the 2013 VIZIO BCS National Championship. He will contribute to the 9 a.m. ET edition of SportsCenter, College Football Live (3 p.m.) and College GameDay Built by The Home Depot (7 p.m.). He will also be part of studio coverage for the new College Football Playoff (semifinals and championship game), which begins next season.

Tebow is the first college football analyst hired for the SEC Network. He joins a commentating roster that includes Joe Tessitore, host of SEC Nation, and Paul Finebaum, host of The Paul Finebaum radio show.

Tebow’s role with ESPN will not preclude him from continuing to pursue playing opportunities in the NFL.

This is 100% true. It's his game tape that will preclude him from pursuing opportunities in the NFL.

This has a David Pollack feel all over it. I'm sure intelligent and objective analysis will be in abundance.

I still think it was rather shortsighted of the Broncos to let him go in exchange for Peyton coming in. While Peyton Manning has been great the last two years and may well have another shot at a Super Bowl this year, fact of the matter is Peyton getting on in years for an NFL player. I wouldn't be surprised if he's looking at retirement to go to a coaching position or tv spot himself in two or three years.

They should have kept Tebow and used Peyton to mentor him.

Good for him. He is about the only former player from a rival team that i have any rooting interest in. Though i hated His guts when he was at UF, i guess i started being a fan of His when he became the "underdog". Hope he does Well and gets another chance to play ball somwheres else.
