Former Georgia Bulldog Champ Bailey will be covering college football for the 2024 season. Bailey will be a studio analyst for the Mountain West on TNT Sports, according to Marc Weiszer of the Athens Banner-Herald. He will cover Mountain West matches on TruTV and Max.
His first game will be the San Jose State-Sacramento State matchup on Aug. 29 at 10 p.m. ET. He will be joined in the booth with former Auburn and NFL linebacker Takeo Spikes, former NFL wide receiver Victor Cruz, and former Bleacher Report analyst Adam Lefkoe.
Bailey was one of the greatest defensive backs in college football history when he played for the Bulldogs from 1996-1998. In 1998, he made 52 tackles, three interceptions, and seven pass deflections, earning him a spot on the All-American team and the Bronco Nagurski trophy as the best defensive player in college football.
He was drafted No. 7 overall by the Washington Redskins in 1999, and with the Redskins and the Broncos, he made 12 Pro-Bowl appearances, earned four 1st-Team and 2nd-Team All-Pros, and still has the NFL record for most pass deflections in a career.
The College and Pro Football Hall of Famer will be a solid addition to a new broadcasting crew for some very exciting football in the Mountain West.
