Erin Andrews is leaving ESPN potentially for Fox and its budding college football coverage. Richard Deitsch of "Sports Illustrated", who has been all over Erin Andrews potential defection from ESPN since March, wrote that Fox is "aggressively pursuing" Andrews. Fox has declined to comment, but ESPN wished Andrews all the best on her future accomplishments.
It has to be mentioned that Andrews has had a meteoric rise to popularity in the last couple years after she re-signed with ESPN. She was given the big opportunity to host the first hour of the network's popular "College Football GameDay". She also made an appearnace as a correspondent for "Good Morning America", performed interviews from the red carpet for the "2011 Oscars", showed her dancing moves on "Dancing with the Stars" and was even mentioned in the inaugural episode of Aaron Sorkin's new HBO media drama: "The Newsroom."
We have to admit that Andrews made sideline reporting not only sexy but also smart and sports fans greatly appreciated that. No matter where Erin lands, she will undeniably bring a wide audience with her.
