News of Booger McFarland leaving the SEC Network to join ABC Sports leaked early Tuesday but has since been confirmed by ESPN. McFarland may be leaving the SEC-centric channel but he will still be covering college football exclusively for ESPN/ABC.

McFarland’s move wasn’t the only move announced by ESPN Tuesday, here are a few changes that were announced by the company Tuesday afternoon:

  • Former LSU DL Booger McFarland will team up with former Texas coach Mack Brown and anchor Kevin Negandhi to form the three-man booth for ABC’s coverage of college football
  • Former Florida QB Jesse Palmer, former Ohio State WR Joey Galloway and anchor Adnan Virk will form the three-man booth for ESPN’s coverage of college football on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays
  • Former Oregon coach Chip Kelly will serve on as an analyst for ESPN’s college football coverage on Fridays and Saturdays and Kelly also working NFL Sundays for ESPN
