It didn’t take long for Allie LaForce to find another full-time gig.
If you missed the news, the former “SEC on CBS” sideline reporter has been replaced by Jamie Erdahl for the upcoming college football season. CBS announced that news earlier this offseason. In the end, it worked out for LaForce as she’s agreed to a multi-year deal with Turner Sports.
LaForce will now work NBA on TNT games as well as the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship for Turner Sports. She will also have the opportunity to host select NBA TV programming.
“I’m so excited for the opportunity to fulfill my lifelong passion and dream of covering basketball for a living,” LaForce said in a prepared statement. “It’s been a privilege over the last few years to get a glimpse of the quality of the people and production at Turner and to now be considered part of this family full-time is really exciting. I greatly look forward to my future here.”
