Now Ryen Russillo is leaving ESPN radio

I've always enjoyed him when he was with SVP and his solo show. It was like talking to a friend while having a beer.

I enjoyed it when it was him and Danny. I took it off automatic record once Danny left.

Oh well, guess we can expect more drunken binges in his future?

Maybe he's taking a hiatus to learn how to spell Ryan

There's an audio tape out there from when RR worked for ESPN Boston, where a drunken John Dennis of WEEI in Boston left a message on RR's answering machine where Dennis accused RR of being a drunk and trying to get in the pants of Dennis' daughter. Funny stuff.

Same here. He mentioned several times wanting to move to LA and work there, so this shouldn't be much of a surprise. I liked his real world guy at the bar presentation to topics. I bet the culture at ESPN is also part of the issue. Good for him.

Hard to believe the SAS show was viewed as a better option for that time slot.


Last show was very good, his closing was well done...
if you missed

Pure class on his way out!

Dang. Always have liked him. There's not much left for me at ESPN.

Will Cain replacing him is Mr. Hot Take/Over React Guy. I won't be tuning in for that show.

I agree. Nothing against Cain, he just doesn't do it for me. Plus I thought they already had Smith and Hill for that role (who I also can't watch).

During the time period we didn’t have coach Ryen and Will did a segment about who our next coach would be.

Ryen talked for about 90 seconds on why he thought Willie Taggart would be our next head coach.

He then wraps up his thoughts and gives the mic back to Will for his perspective.

I kid you not, Will says to him, but now that Jimbo is gone, who do think FSU will hire as their next head coach?

Ryen stares at him and then looks across the room confused...then says...I think I just said Willie Taggart.

Will says yeah...but why.

It was hilarious...felt bad for Ryen for being stuck with Will
