Lee Corso is going to miss legendary actor and former FSU teammate Burt Reynolds. Reynolds passed away Thursday.
Reynolds and Corso roomed together in Tallahassee, and the College GameDay analyst released a heartfelt statement on the passing of Reynolds.
Corso also helped encourage Reynolds to pursue his acting dreams, and he became one of the most recognized faces in Hollywood.
On Saturday, Corso took another moment to remember Reynolds on college football’s premier pregame show. It was a cool moment.
“Burt and I were close friends for 64 years. … He was the world’s biggest movie starts for years, but he never forgot his old teammates at Florida State. I’m going to miss Burt. He was a good friend of mine in good and bad times,” Corso said.
