Corso’s final ‘Gameday’ at OSU

BRISTOL, Conn. — Lee Corso’s final headgear pick on “College GameDay” will be on the campus where it all started.

ESPN’s iconic show will begin its 39th season at Ohio State before the defending national champion Buckeyes host the Texas Longhorns on Aug. 30.

Corso, who turns 90 in August, announced earlier this year that his final show would be on the opening week of the season.

Corso began his popular headgear segment on Oct. 5, 1996, before Ohio State faced Penn State. Since then, he has gone 286-144 in 430 selections wearing everything from helmets and mascot heads to dressing up as the Fighting Irish leprechaun from Notre Dame, the Stanford tree and historic figures James Madison and Benjamin Franklin. He has worn 69 different school’s mascot headgear.

Corso — the lone remaining member of GameDay’s original cast — has selected and worn Brutus Buckeye’s headgear a record 45 times. Alabama is next with 38.

This will be the 26th appearance by “College GameDay” in Columbus. The Buckeyes have a 19-6 record in those games.

McLaurin skips minicamp

ASHBURN, Va. — Terry McLaurin is not at Washington Commanders mandatory minicamp as the team’s top wide receiver looks for a new contract.

McLaurin, who turns 30 in September, is only signed through the next NFL season.

“Hey, sometimes football and business, they intersect and this is one of those times,” coach Dan Quinn said Tuesday. “Terry is a fantastic teammate and really puts in the work, and we spent a lot of time with him already this offseason.”

McLaurin has surpassed 1,000 yards receiving each of the past five seasons and fell only 81 short in his rookie year because he missed games because of an injury.

A third-round pick in 2019 out of Ohio State who dealt with quarterback roulette for the quite some time after breaking into the league, McLaurin set career highs with 82 catches and 13 touchdowns with Jayden Daniels as the starter and Marcus Mariota the backup.

Quinn downplayed McLaurin not being there, saying the good news is the wideout and QBs have already established strong rapport. He’s leaving the negotiating part to general manager Adam Peters.

“The business side of things, Adam and their crew and Terry and his group, let them work through that,” Quinn said. “But in the meantime, lots of stuff to do.”

Rodgers says he is now married

PITTSBURGH — Aaron Rodgers added another ring to his collection before he even signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The four-time NFL MVP quarterback and Super Bowl champion said Tuesday after his first practice with the Steelers that he got married “a couple months ago.”

Rodgers was spotted wearing a ring on his left ring finger in a photo the Steelers shared after the 41-year-old signed a one-year deal to join the team for the 2025 season.

When asked if the ring was an indication he was married, Rodgers replied, “Yeah, it’s a wedding ring.” He wore the ring on Tuesday while participating in drills with his new team.

Rodgers has revealed little about his bride. During an appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show” last fall, he mentioned he was dating a woman named Brittani but offered no other details.

His previous dating history includes long-term relationships with race car driver Danica Patrick and actors Olivia Munn and Shailene Woodley.

Starting at $3.23/week.
