Wide World of Women

She some of you know she pregnant with second kid and going on leave in a few months (I think she's at least 3-4 months away). Anyway, it means that someone will fill in for her in the 6 PM hour. Usually it's Zuban who fills in for Lindsay. Let said they open up the spot for anybody to fill in. I hope they go with another female heck have Hannah Storm do her face to face hour in the evenings when Lindsay on maternity leave and have Elle and Jay (or whoever on with Elle) do the 10 AM hour on SC unless Lindsay leaves next month or December then that might screw up the scheduling because Hannah on Sundays.

Other choices include: Elle Duncan, Sara Walsh, Dianna Russini, Nicole Briscoe, and Lisa Kerney and maybe Jade McCarthy.

How about Linda Cohn, although she is working mostly weekends.

How about sideline reporters like Molly McGrath and Samantha Ponder from College Football Live, and Laura Rutledge and Olivia Harlan from SEC Network? They could do freelancing role as fill-ins. As for the fill-in choices, I believe that Sara Walsh, Jade McCarthy, and Dianna Russini would be the main fill-ins for Lindsay Czarniak. I'm pretty optimistic also that Hannah Storm might do face to face hour in the evenings when Lindsay on maternity leave and have Sara and Jade do the 10AM hour on SC. That's my honest opinion.

I think Molly and Sam would more than likely fill in for Cari Champion in LA than Lindsay. Laura already has an anchoring gig on SEC Now plus I don't know where the SEC Now studio is and Olivia well does a few other gigs for Fox Sports Regional so I'm unsure if she can do it and what's on her contract with ESPN/SEC network. Hannah Storm might be the best option and have Jay and Elle on at 10 AM depending on when Lindsay does go on leave.

That sounds possible. Hannah and Sara more than likely their best option fill in for Lindsay for 6pm spot. Same for Molly and Samantha fill in for Cari for the Coast to Coast edition.

Also forgot about Michele Steele though again depending when Lindsay goes on leave. Also would Samantha fill-in Sportscenter or could she because her hubby (Christian Ponder) is an active NFL player (3rd string Quarterback of the 49ers)?

I like your opinion. Samantha could be a great fill-in for Cari when she's not on SC Coast to Coast, same for Molly as well.

Michael Smith and Jemele Hill will be anchors starting the day after the Super Bowl. Lindsay will continue on ESPN in an unannounced role. Honestly I don't like this move, those two weren't anchors plus actual anchors get screwed over. Nothing against Michael and Jemele but they're not anchors. ESPN should have kept them where they are now.

I think Michael and Jemele will do great on SportsCenter in February. As for Lindsay, I think she'll move to a weekend anchor role and possibly join Linda Cohn, Jade McCarthy, and/or Sara Walsh as part of weekend edition of SportsCenter, or a main fill-in role for Hannah Storm for Face to Face, or move to a 11pm anchor role and possibly join Lisa Kerney and Nicole Briscoe as part of SC at Night. That's my honest opinion.

I don't know if there's room. There's already Linda, Sara, and at times Jade, Lisa, Nicole, and Dianna on weekends. Not counting Hannah and Elle mostly because they're on weekends during football season. There's not enough slots for all the ladies. Especially with all the extensions going on, someone probably going to be the odd person out. I know there's will be available slot or slots with Lindsay gone next month and even if Zubin takes over for Lindsay at 6 PM like he did Monday and Dianna did his 7 to 9 slot.

It looks it's a rotation of dudes though at times Dianna is on 7 to 9.
