what happened to bear on gameday

Chris Fallica, also known as "The Bear," left ESPNs College GameDay show and joined Fox's college football coverage. ESPN gave him a special send-off during Saturday's edition of College GameDay. He joined GameDay in 1996 as a research producer and became a major part of ESPN's College GameDay broadcast each Saturday morning during the football season. He was the betting analyst and broke down the weekly betting lines and made selections for college football games each week during the fall. "The Bear" will reportedly join Fox's Big Noon Kickoff, which is a direct competitor of ESPN's weekly show. His role there has not been officially detailed yet.
