He suffered a stroke 15 years ago and has struggled with his speech ever since.

That had led to compassionate viewers pleading for him to retire from the ESPN show.

But he has remained ever since, and has fought on as he gets on in age.

However, College GameDay watchers were worried after he missed the latest instalment of the show.

The program headed to Berkeley for the first time in its history on Saturday morning.

They were building up to the California Golden Bears taking on the Miami Hurricanes.

But Corso’s absence was the talk of social media networking site X.

One user said: “Oh, now Corso’s absence means fewer signature headgear moments.

“Feel better soon.”

Another added: “Corso is a legend.

“Been watching him since the first game day at ND/FSU in 93 but it’s time for him to retire.”

A third commented: “I don’t think Lee was fit for this environment.”

Another said: “Sad not seeing Lee Corso on the show.”

A fifth replied: “It might be time for Corso to retire. What a legend.”

'It was a short retirement!'

Jason Kelce didn't stay retired in the NFL for long.

The former Philadelphia Eagles lineman called it quits after the 2023 season.

But he will be part of ESPN’s coverage on Monday Night Football in 2024.

Kelce will appear on Monday Night Countdown from 6pm-8pm ET every week as well as during the halftime show.

“Turns out, it was a short retirement!” he joked.

“ESPN was a consistent presence in our household growing up and the network helped shape who I am and my love of all sports.

“To now appear on that same screen is a full circle moment.

“And, I mean it’s freaking Monday Night Football! and I’m ready for some football.”

GameDay host Rece Davis addressed his absence on the live broadcast.

He also made it clear he would be back in the near future following his health scare.

“Lee Corso, a little bit under the weather,” said Davis.

“We expect to get him back soon.

“I know LC’s watching. Speedy recovery my friend.”

Corso has been an analyst on College GameDay since it first started on ESPN in 1987.

Holly Willoughby supported Phillip Schofield through paedo brother’s arrest… before it became ‘bad for her brand’

PHILLIP Schofield was supported by Holly Willoughby following his brother Timothy’s arrest for child sex offences.

But pals said Phil was upset when she publicly distanced herself from him when Timothy went on trial last May.

Phil now believes that Holly – who was once his closest friend – started to put a wall up between them because she knew it could look bad “for her brand”.

At the time, insiders told The Sun how the strain of Phil’s brother Timothy’s arrest for child sex offences had “added to the rift between them”.

Holly has never publicly spoken about Timothy’s crimes but in messages seen by The Sun in December 2021 after his arrest, Holly spoke with Phil about him.

After learning Timothy was being taken in by a friend after he was bailed, Holly messaged Phil and asked if the friend giving him a place to stay “knew what he had done?”

Holly also wrote to Phil about her shock and said it was “hard to believe”.

A friend said: “Phil feels that he was sacked because of the bad press around his brother. Everyone knew about Tim – including Holly.

“They had a backstage make-up room called ‘The Sanctuary’ at This Morning, where Phil first assembled trusted pals including Holly and told them, tearfully, about his brother. Holly held his hand and was super kind.

“But Phil feels she distanced herself from it publicly because it was bad for her brand. But she supported Phil and was disgusted by what his brother had done.”

The rift between them spiralled – with Phil later admitting he had lied to Holly about his affair with a colleague.

Pals said Holly cut Phil off dead, adding: “He feels so betrayed by Holly still.

“Phil acknowledges that he lied to Holly about the affair but he apologised profusely.

 “She dropped him like a stone, despite everything they had been through.

“He’ll never get over what he feels is a betrayal.”

Timothy was jailed for 12 years in May last year.

Holly’s team did not comment when approached by The Sun.
