Joe Lunardi

[Kace-1]

What's the general opinion on him? ESPN seems real high on reminding me during broadcasts that he does mock drafts for Selection Sunday or whatever. I'm trying to figure out how a conversation between he and Mel Kiper Jr. would go. Like, would it be a real chat or just be full of speculation?

He was like Kiper at the beginning.

He was the first to get recognition for predicting NCAA playoff
teams. Kiper was the original for the NFL draft.

Neither one of them works full-time for ESPN. Lunardi works
for St Joe's Univrsity as some big-wig in their marketing department
and does color on their basketball games.

Kiper was doing his thing before there was an ESPN. Kiper was
pretty awesome when he first started. ESPN has tried, it seems, to
dump Kiper, that's why they have McShay doing that stuff also, but
McShay has no clue what he's talking about.

Lunardi does okay the last week of the season predicting the top
4 seeds. (Which most of us can do) but he erases all of his other
weekly forecasts at the end of the season so nobody can check on how pitiful he does.
