New Face Joins ESPN’s College GameDay Crew for Upcoming 2023 Football Season
ESPN’s highly anticipated College GameDay is shaking things up with an exciting addition to its team. The network has officially announced that “Stanford Steve” Coughlin is taking center stage as the betting analyst for the upcoming 2023 college football season.
This switch-up marks the passing of the torch from the previous betting analyst, “The Bear” Chris Fallica, who’s set to make his debut at Fox Sports in the coming season. As Coughlin steps into this role, fans are eager to witness how he’ll carve out his own distinctive place in the heart of the much-loved show.
Echoing the excitement, Lee Fitting, ESPN’s senior vice president of production, welcomed Coughlin with open arms, highlighting his unbridled enthusiasm for college football and his knack for betting insights. Fitting couldn’t help but express his optimism: “Adding him to College GameDay will be a great fit as we tap into both his knowledge of the sport and his betting expertise every week to serve all of our loyal fans,”
Coughlin himself is no stranger to the thrill of College GameDay. Going down memory lane, he fondly recalled his days as a tight end at Stanford, when watching the show was a cherished part of his routine. Now, he’s all revved up to be part of the action. In his words, “I’m jacked up to be part of this crew. Charlotte, let’s bring it Week 1!”
Welcome to the team, @StanfordSteve82! ?
