At least he’s not constantly yelling. He’s not my favorite but he’s FAR from the worst on ESPN.
Espn layoffs gameday affected

Put Texas fans in the middle after losing to Kansas and you have the same thing.
Pollack sucked. His takes were dumb and about as informed as a guy that did some quick google search 3 minutes before each segment. Desmond was a little better but not much. Their content was freaking terrible.
Klatt is very well informed and does his homework. I have no problem with a guy saying something I don’t agree with as long as they have done some homework.
Klatt has been very pro ISU and negative on ISU depending on the season, like a real analyst. And really the time he was bearish on ISU was going into 2021 when he correctly thought ISU was not a top 10 team.
If I had to rank them, I wish they had gotten rid of pompous Rece Davis or Kirk before Pollack. Or never brought on McAfee. Certainly those moves would have saved a lot more money than DP, but he did not seem to add a lot if not talking about Georgia.
I actually liked Pollack. Wonder if he finds a home on Fox
Agree. Klatt has generally been positive about Iowa but when Barta's new 25-point threshold for BF was announced Klatt was pretty relentless on just how monumentally stupid a move it was.
Screaming A. Smith is horrible. Skip Bayless ranks right up there with him.
I like Klatt, he knows his **** and doesnt sugar coat it.
No way they will ever get rid of Kirk. Only way he leaves is if he goes some place else.
Should just call it the Stephen A Smith network. They’re going to work the current employees to the bone
What if they had a show where they showed highlights from every major sporting event, and had 2 people at a desk narrating it. Then in all the other time they could show live sports.
They should have laid off Joey Galloway. No one less informed whose whole schtick is perpetuating conference stereotypes.

He was a lot less awful 15ish years ago when Mike & Mike was his only schtick (and Golic was definitely the less annoying of the two), but for the last many years now he's completely unbearable to watch.
I turned Sports center on and boy did it suck compared to the 90s.
Couldn't disagree more. If you listened to him on the ESPN podcasts, he knew more about more teams than anyone on Gameday.
