Mullen has joined ESPN and SEC Network throughout the past few years as a guest analyst, including at last year's SEC Championship Game, as well as the past two College Football Playoff National Championships.

Connors' wide-ranging studio assignments include regular editions of SportsCenter, college football and basketball wraps, as well as Major League Baseball.
