What did he have to walk back? I only listen to "The Rewatchables" sometimes.

Damn...this is BS.

Golic has been with ESPN for like 25 years. He’s very solid.

Well, he is from Boston..wouldn’t expect much less.

He’s the guy in the stands yelling at Jones and Hunter.

I think, sadly, that qualifies him to run for President in 2024

ESPN new lineup on the radio.

Golic and Wingo gone..Greenberg back on the radio...Kellerman on the radio.

Lots of people doing double duty now.

Golic being gone is a loss but Wingo isn’t much of a radio loss.

I dont get some of the decision making.

I haven't listened to ESPN Radio in years.

I'm guessing Greenberg's AM radio show went the way of the dodo?

Kellerman is pretty great imo. He was really good on local radio in SoCal with Marcellus Wiley.

Mike and Mike was fine, but neither host offered a great deal of knowledge or strong analysis. Not sure about when Wingo took over for Greeny.

They have some pretty good people on these shows imo, but I don't listen to sports radio much at all anyways as I almost exclusively listen to podcasts.

Mike and Mike has been done for a while...he is doing the morning TV show now and that seems to be going well after it struggled early..and now he is going back on the radio as well as having Get Up.

I heard Mike Golic on the Sarah Spain podcast.

It sounds like Golic and Wingo is ending because Wingo doesn’t want to keep doing the show. He doesn’t like getting up early, etc..

Golic wanted to just get a new host but ESPN said no..he wanted to join Greeny and they said no.

He told ESPN that since he is under contract through the end of the year that he wanted to keep working, that he can do CFB.

He made it very clear that he isn’t retiring and it sounds like he will go on to do radio somewhere else.

Would love to know why ESPN doesn’t seem to high on bringing him back. Ratings don’t appear to be an issue.

There is a lot of diversity in their new radio lineup, so maybe that has something to do with it?

Either way, sucks to see him go and, as he said, he isn’t leaving on his own terms. That happened on Mike and Mike (he is obviously still upset about how that went down) and now this. A guy who has been so loyal to that company for almost 25 years deserves better than that but ESPN doesn’t seem to have the best reputation in that regards.

@craigcalcaterra

Some personal news: After 11+ years at NBC, @HardballTalk is officially no more and I'm out with it. I want to thank

@NBCSports for a hell of a ride and HBT readers for riding along. My ride's not over, though. Updates soon, but you're not rid of my opinions just yet.
