Lee Corso Autographs
Lee Corso was born in 1935 in Lakeland, Florida. He began his football career at Florida State University, where he played quarterback for the Seminoles in the late 1950s. After college, Corso went on to coach at the high school level before becoming an assistant coach at Florida State in 1966. He then moved on to coach at Louisville and Indiana before being hired as the head coach at Northern Illinois University in 1984. Corso retired from coaching in 1986 with a record of 73-85-6.
After retiring from coaching, Corso began a second career as a football commentator. He joined ESPN as an analyst in 1987 and became a fixture of college football broadcasts. Corso is best known for his signature headgear picks, in which he chooses the winner of the week's most important games while wearing a mascot headgear. He is also known for his catchphrase, "not so fast, my friend!" when disagreeing with fellow analysts. Corso was inducted into the Sports Broadcasting Hall of Fame in 2017, reflecting his long and distinguished career in football broadcasting.

He has contributed greatly to the sport over the years, both as a coach and as a commentator. Today, Corso remains a beloved and entertaining personality, and he continues to provide commentary on college football games during the season. His passion for the sport, as well as his unique personality, make him one of the most enduring figures in American football history.
