ESPN is keeping at least one big-name free agent.

Last night, Scott Van Pelt confirmed that he is staying in beautiful Bristol via a Tweet. Isn’t that how it’s done these days?

Appreciate the interest and support here.  Feel very fortunate to have gone through process but glad it’s over. Ultimately, ESPN is my home

It’s a good move for Van Pelt. He loves his midday radio show on the network and it’s hard to beat the power of ESPN.

Regarding ESPN’s other free agents, it appears as if Michelle Beadle is leaving to become a co-host of Access Hollywood along with having duties at NBC. Still no word on the fate of Erin Andrews.
