There were plenty of great signs on the College GameDay set during the pre-game show’s trip to New York City. And while some can go a little too far, there was one that should’ve never been allowed inside the gates.
The sign — which can be seen over Herbstreit’s left shoulder in the photo below — reads “Corso has CTE.” The ESPN college football analyst suffered a stroke a few years ago.

Needless to say, people on Twitter found that sign just as outrageous and weren’t entertained by the awful message.
To the person holding the "Corso has CTE" sign on @CollegeGameDay – go back to your mom's basement idiot!

That dude with the "Corso has CTE" sign deserves to be punched in the face. He had a stroke you jackass, and that man is a national treasure

Maybe next time College GameDay will do a better job of which signs make an appearance on the show.
