As ESPN Radio closes in on its reinvented national lineup, basketball analyst Jay Williams and SportsCenter host Zubin Mehenti are the leading candidates to join Keyshawn Johnson on the network’s new morning show, while Max Kellerman could land in the afternoons, The Post has learned.

ESPN is replacing “Golic & Wingo” in the mornings with a program likely centered around Johnson and Williams with Mehenti the point guard, according to sources. ESPN is currently negotiating to make it happen.

ESPN already announced that Johnson is joining its daily NFL Live program, meaning he is moving East from Los Angeles, where he currently is on local ESPN Radio.

Meanwhile, the network is zeroing it on the rest of its lineup. “The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz” is a program that ESPN executives have discussed taking off of radio, but now will likely survive — though it could lose an hour.

I may not be the biggest Golic/Wingo fan but this is bound to fail...

I find him so annoying, he tries so hard to sound like he's the smartest guy in the room with random nuggets when he hosts sportscenter, but more times than not, he gets it wrong.

He also has like no personality.

uhhhh wrong. Because Max fricking Kellerman gets two hours by himself right after. I'd rather watch Greenburg for 10 hours a day than Max white guilt Kellerman talk for 2

You're not watching either of them, this is radio. ESPN cares more about podcasts than radio like the rest of the world. A new lineup is just rearranging the deck chairs.

When Lebs and Stu are just being funny, its a great show. I usually change the station when he starts talking social issues but it is still way better than any of the other crap in that line-up.
