Glad he'll be back for the beginning of the season. As much as any of us think he is full of crap, he's a part of college football and his voice brings back good memories of watching football on saturdays. Voices like Corso, Griese, Nessler ("Minor is major"). I love college football. Man, I can't wait for September.

Corso is a character, and love or hate he makes that show better than any NFL clip or preview show... Wish him a full recovery and a new box of pencils. BTW, did you know why he always uses a Dixon Ticonderoga when he's up there on the stage? He actually is a sales rep for the pencil company in the offseason, and he's trying to give some free publicity to his product... so this fall, when you hear him belt out the first "Not so fast, my friend," look in his hand, and I'll bet you see a Dixon #2 with the green stripes just below the eraser.

Yeah, I've heard about that, and I always look for the pencil now when he's talking. I wonder what kind of sales pitch you give when you're a rep for a pencil company. "Low breakability?" "Highest eraser removal rate in the industry?"
