Was hoping they do their own show to complete against Sportscenter but these are good.

Sounds very comparable to the daily sports shows ESPN already has. It'll be good to have that variety.

I noted from the article that Ross Tucker would be a contributor to the NBCSN's CollegeFootballTalk show. This is interesting to me because Tucker is one of the main hosts of ESPN's Football Today podcast. Not a major gig compared to actual TV work, obviously, but its still a weird intersection.

Would I be wrong in assuming people won't see any more Peter King appearances on ESPN's Pardon The Interruption?

Could this be the logo for the new sports-business show with Darren Rovell?
