The “Mad Hatter” isn’t the only big name on the move. Former Oregon coach Mark Helfrich and recently fired ESPN commentator Danny Kanell have also been hired by the network.
It seems that his new colleagues are excited about him joining the FOX Sports team.
It’s true “The Hat” joins @SpenceTillman @holly_sonders and me in Lincoln and a few other games this fall. Let’s just say We’re pumped. 🏈👌👍

Pairing Miles with Brando, Tillman and Sonders should be a wonderful combination for FOX Sports. Miles adds a coaching element to couple with Brando’s charisma, Tillman’s quick wit and player background, and Sonders ability to sniff out crucial in-game information.
