Dan Orlovsky and Matt Hasselbeck Could Call College Football Games for ESPN This Season
>>ESPN has had serious discussions about promoting Dan Orlovsky and adding Matt Hasselbeck in college football broadcast booths this season, The Big Lead has learned. This would also mean a further shakeup on ESPN’s Monday Night Countdown pregame show for Monday Night Football. An ESPN spokesperson declined to comment.
Orlovsky is a rising star at ESPN and you see him on their airwaves day and night enough to wonder if there is more than one of him. He brings a lot of enthusiasm. We have heard that the plan for him would be for him to replace Brock Huard, who as Andrew Marchand reported in May left ESPN to join Fox’s no. 2 college football team alongside Joe Davis, in ESPN’s hierarchy. [Clarification: Orlovsky has previously called college football for ESPN, and this would be an elevation.]<<
