Per a Friday release , former Boston College, Temple, and Colorado State head coach Steve Addazio has joined ESPN’s ranks. He’ll work as a game analyst this season on various platforms. For his debut in Week 1, Addazio will work with Clay Matvick.

Matvick’s primary partner last season was Aaron Murray.
