\n As ESPN Radio closes in on its reinvented national lineup, basketball analyst Jay Williams and SportsCenter host Zubin Mehenti are the leading candidates to join Keyshawn Johnson on the network\u2019s new morning show, while Max Kellerman could land in the afternoons, The Post has learned.<\/p>\n

ESPN is replacing \u201cGolic & Wingo\u201d in the mornings with a program likely centered around Johnson and Williams with Mehenti the point guard, according to sources. ESPN is currently negotiating to make it happ<\/a>en.<\/p>\n

ESPN already announced that Johnson is joining its daily NFL Live program, meaning he is moving east from Los Angeles, where he currently is on local ESPN Radio.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the network is zeroing it on the rest of its lineup. \u201cThe Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz\u201d is a program that ESPN executives have discussed taking off of radio, but now will likely survive \u2014 though it could lose an hour.<\/p>\n

Le Batard currently runs from 10-1 nationally, but Mike Greenberg is expected to have a show from either 12-2 p.m. or 1-3 p.m. Greenberg will continue to host his morning TV show, \u201cGet Up.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sources said if it is 12-2 p.m for Greenberg, then Kellerman would likely stake claim to a 2-4 p.m. show. Kellerman would continue his morning TV show, \u201cFirst Take,\u201d in which he partners with Stephen A. Smith.<\/p>\n

On radio, Kellerman would be followed by Mike Golic Jr. and basketball analyst Chiney Ogwumike from 4-7 p.m. Golic Jr. is currently part of ESPN Radio\u2019s morning show with his father, Mike Golic Sr. and Trey Wingo.<\/p>\n

It is unclear what role Golic Sr. and Wingo will have at ESPN moving forward. Both have contracts that run through the end of the year, but Wingo\u2019s only assignment, besides radio, is the NFL draft.<\/p>\n

Golic Sr. has had a very strong run on mornings, including teaming with Greenberg in what was a very successful tandem for nearly two decades.<\/p>\n

Mehenti has emerged as the third man on the new morning show. He currently hosts \u201cSportsCenter,\u201d but does not have a high profile.<\/p>\n

Jason Fitz is under contract and currently leads the 1-3 p.m. program, \u201cFirst Take, Your Take.\u201d Fitz could be headed to the evenings.<\/p>\n

Hanging over the whole situation is ESPN\u2019s unsteadiness as the country deals with the ongoing pandemic. While major sports could come back in full force, that is still in question as COVID-19 cases continue to spike. ESPN is hopeful of broadcasting NBA and MLB game<\/a>s to go along with the MLS\u2019s restart this week. More of the major sports returning, including hockey, could breathe more energy into its radio lineup.<\/p>\n

ESPN declined comment on its potential changes.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
