The longtime ESPN “SportsCenter” anchor has revealed his next gig.
Anderson, whose final show after 25 years at ESPN is this Friday, announced that he will be joining the faculty at his alma mater, the University of Missouri.. “That’s what Mizzou is. If you’re going to go play, why not go play for the team with all the world titles? I could not have thought of a better post- ESPN landing spot.”Anderson, who graduated from the school in 1987, will be fulfilling the Leonard H. Goldenson Endowed Chair in Radio and Television Journalism.
“The value of being correct, as opposed to right and wrong — Missouri taught me that you are responsible not only for what you say but what people hear,” Anderson said. “I’m really glad that I am rooted in a schooling that was very much, ‘hey, let’s start with the basics. Get the facts and present them correctly.’ That’s foundational. It’s a tenet of the whole job, and it seems obvious, but it’s become something that is so important to think about every time you make a keystroke.
