Lee Corso got up and walked off ABC's NFL Draft set on live TV
-
The 83-year-old Corso said goodbye while his fellow ESPN College Gameday panelists were discussing the 11th pick in the draft (of 32 picks). "Taking off on us?" host Rece Davis asked. "Yeah, I gotta go," Corso responded. "See you guys. I’ll see you guys in the fall." An ESPN spokesperson tells Sports Illustrated it was always the plan for Corso to only work a portion of the draft. This is the first time that the entire College Gameday crew lent its perspective to the draft. ALSO: About 4.88 million watched ABC's first-ever NFL Draft coverage.
