BREAKING: Skip Bayless Reveals Shocking News About His Future On Undisputed

To say that Skip Bayless splits the crowd may oddly be at once an overstatement and understatement.

Skip Bayless: A Polarizing Media Figure

It is unquestionable that the die-hard Dallas Cowboys fan and 35 year sports talk radio host certainly has both a substantial audience and significant…”critique” online.

However, one imagines that there are very few people – even amongst fans of the show – that will stand atop a table and preach about the football legitimacy and expertise of “Undisputed” – the simulcast show that Bayless has hosted for the past 8 years, the majority of which alongside Pro Football Hall of Famer, Shannon Sharpe.

Almost exactly a year ago, in July 2023, Sharpe left the show amidst reportedly rising tensions with his co-host in the wake of Skip’s tweet criticizing the handling of the Damar Hamlin incident.

And now, it seems like the time has come for another to move on as well, as the Ryan Glasspiegel reports from the New York Post that Bayless is moving on from Undisputed.

This is not exactly the shocking departure some may believe it to be: The show never really recovered from the departure of Shannon Sharpe, and much like what happened in his break up with him and Stephen A. Smith – now in cahoots with Tom Brady on ‘First Take’.

Evidently, now is the time for something new for the now household name on sports talk radio and television, especially considering the ratings hit the show has taken since Sharpe’s departure.
