No matter what you think about ESPN, I think we can all agree that this was a great decision. Rece Davis is one of the best in the business, and it’s not up for debate.
He’s insanely intelligent, great on TV and has been one of the main pillars of College GameDay for years.
You know you’re in for a great Saturday morning whenever you roll out of bed, grab some coffee and fire up GameDay to see Davis and the rest of the crew.

I also had the chance to speak with Davis at the end of 2019, and you’d be hard-pressed to find a nicer guy.
Big project coming up with @CollegeGameDay. Huge thanks to @davidpollack47 and @ReceDavis for sitting down with me to talk some football.
I can’t wait for you all to see the final product. pic.twitter.com/P9iVlo36zm

“You know what it teaches you?…Shut up and show up.”
I spoke with @DavidPollack47 and @ReceDavis about the importance of football.
Both gave incredible answers, and every fan and critic of the sport should listen. pic.twitter.com/DhYYEfmqvh

I can’t wait to see what lies ahead for Davis and GameDay. As a college football fanatic, I’m pumped that he’s not going anywhere.
