Jon Sumrall ends the ESPN pedicure debate with an archived Dan Orlovsky shoe clip

7/30/2026

One pedicure every two weeks during football season, attributed to his wife in an interview last week, is the figure now attached to Florida Gators head coach Jon Sumrall.

ESPN football analyst Dan Orlovsky challenged that cadence on ESPN's "Get Up," declaring he was "completely against pedicures for dudes" and that he would "rather have awful feet." Sumrall's reply on X required no new words: he posted archival video of Orlovsky sniffing host Molly Qerim's high-heel shoe live on ESPN's "First Take." The positions on record Orlovsky's objection was categorical.

He told "Get Up" viewers men "should not be getting pedicures." Sumrall's disclosed schedule runs once every two weeks through football season, sourced to his wife. That is the documented record before the X post.
