Pat McAfee has been a popular name in the company ever since he started appearing in NXT. He wrestled a few well-received matches on the brand before he was moved to the main roster, where he remained as a commentator.
McAfee proved to be an entertaining analyst who provided a breath of fresh air to the commentary desk. He was entertaining, and his antics were well-received. However, he decided to leave the commentary team behind to join ESPN College GameDay.
Recently, Pat McAfee took to social media to announce that he has not re-signed with ESPN College GameDay since he is not right for the college football fanbase.

"To the 49%, I have some great news.. I have heard you all very loud and clear since the beginning of my stint with GameDay. It’s one of the biggest reasons why I have not resigned a contract with the legendary show. I’m not right for some crowds and the “distinguished” College Football folks are definitely one of those." - an excerpt from his tweet.
