After months of speculation, Scott Hanson appears to have officially confirmed he will return as the host of for the 2025 season.
The beloved personality shared the news in a playful social media post counting down the days until a new episode ofwill air.
"100 days from now = ," Hanson wrote. "(& for those wondering: Yes, I *will* be there. We have a LOT of Touchdowns to watch together!)"
Fans have been concerned about Hanson's status as host of the popular broadcast ever since his contract expired at the end of the 2024 season. Back in February, reported that negotiations to bring him back had stalled.
Months later, however, when it was announced that Hanson would be headlining coverage at the 2026 Winter Olympics, noted that talks had progressed and were skewing toward Hanson's return.
Friday's missive seems to be the official word we were missing. Let us rejoice.
