Social Media Has Plenty To Say As Photo Emerges Of Molly Qerim At UConn Game After Leaving ESPN For Good [PHOTO]
This article was originally published on Total Pro Sports.

Molly Qerim has kept a relatively low profile since leaving ESPN. But she stepped out to a UConn Huskies basketball game this week, and the cameras did not miss.
Qerim quit The Worldwide Leader in Sports and ‘First Take’ in the middle of the night. The announcement came as a shock, given the lack of any indication of an exit. It was also pretty abrupt.
Even co-host Stephen A. Smith was blindsided.
Smith recently opened up on the departure in a way he never had before.
Well, Molly was back under the lights on Wednesday night, attending UConn’s blowout win over St. John’s.
While she kept it simple, sticking to a short coat and denim jeans, she stole the show.
The former ESPN personality posted two photos from her outing to her Instagram page, captioning them “UCONN Bball🏀.”
Check her out below:
“🏀🌺nice to see you out 🙏🏽🙌🏾,” a follower commented.
“You’re still the same. Keep it up!!! ❤️” another wrote.
“So so stunnaful 😍,” one shared.
