Jack Harlow might be a big deal in hip-hop circles, but it doesn’t seem he’s nearly as impactful among the football crowd — as seen in his now-viral appearance on ESPN.
The rapper was the special guest Saturday for “College GameDay” — where analysts and pundits sit around talking shop about all the games going down for the day … and who they got to win, etc. Jack was on the panel too … but first, let’s start with his performance.

JH was at Ohio State here — who are playing Notre Dame today — and as he was introduced on a tiny little stage while surrounded by students … things fell flat fast.
He was doing his song, “First Class,” for the kids … but it became pretty clear that they just weren’t into it. Take a look at the reaction from the crowd — yes, some toward the front are a little hyped … but most everyone else is just looking on, like deer staring into headlights.

That wasn’t the only thing that left an impression, though … Jack’s actual football IQ was on display during his sit-down portion of the broadcast, and there too he’s leaving ‘CGD’ viewers less than impressed … but certainly entertained.
He was asked who he had between the Cincinnati Bearcats and the Arkansas Razorbacks — who also play today — and his rationale boiled down to a girl he once was hollering at. Nice …
