Maryland. The Naval Academy. Louisville. Indiana.
This was the coaching path that Lee Corso took before eventually ending up as Indiana University’s head coach from 1973-1982 making it his longest coaching tenure in his career.
Now 35 years later, Corso is back in Bloomington.
On Thursday, Lee Corso and ESPN will host a special edition of College Gameday from inside Memorial Stadium where IU is set to take on #2 Ohio State in front of Indiana’s first sellout crowd since 2010.
Since the show started going to campuses in 1993, Indiana was just one of twelve power five schools left that had never hosted and College Gameday, which would likely mean that this might be Corso’s first time seeing IU football live since his coaching days.
