I just think there are a zillion people more qualified that do a better job of providing analysis than some guy who hasn't played competitive sports since high school

He is a great host. But when he pretends to be an analyst it is supremely annoying

When he's on Sportscenter or on Espn radio, i think he is really good as a host. Guess I havent heard enough of him analyzing, though.

He just never says "they should change to a cover 2 to stop this ...." or "this play happened because the safety was out of position"

All he does is "WOWWWW What a play!!!", which takes no skill.

when did you start watching espn? this is their job

Yes. The guy they hired from WWE. Now they've actually given him his own radio show. I don't mind disagreeing with radio hosts' opinions but this guy has no clue what he's even talking about.

I don't think anyone has disagreed with me.

I'm saying his analysis sucks.

I'm saying he should be a host only.

Does anyone disagree with either of those?

No more annoying than their other "All American" personalites, you know, Kevin Negandi, Adnan Virk, Zubin Mehenti, and Kaken Dermish

Right now on ESPNU

Few weeks ago he was really annoying during Ark A&M hoops. Didn't know any of the players names

He did have like an hour long football pre-season preview on ESPNU over the summer where he went through his top 25, and he swore up and down that West Virginia was the best team in the country.. and he just went on and on about how awesome they were going to be. I think he even guaranteed a WV vs Southern Cal national championship.. That's kinda where I wondered who this guy was and what his qualifications were.

I agree with you OP, I'm not a fan of his.

Like Blue said he swore Geno Smith was the next great QB and WVU was going to roll everyone to the NCG

he is a fricking host only

just because he adds in his opinions every now and then doesn't mean he's trying to be mangenius or herm edwards. he just tries to spice it up so it's not boring
