ESPN personality Charly Arnolt is leaving the network after five years to host a morning show at OutKick.

“I’m extremely excited to join OutKick and work alongside Clay [Travis, the founder] and a great stable of talent,” Arnolt said, via Barrett Media. “The outspoken nature of the platform and its ability to create engaging content is what really piqued my interest. I have a lot of opinions that I haven’t been able to express, and I can’t wait to get started.”

The show she is set to host has yet to be announced, and it will be available to watch on the outlet’s streaming services. Arnolt also posted a farewell message to ESPN after the news dropped on Monday.

“What a fantastic ride it’s been at ESPN these past nearly 5 years—but like all things, this one has come to an end as I embark on a new chapter in my career,” Arnolt wrote. “I am so thankful for the people I’ve met and the experiences I’ve had. Can’t wait to share the details of my new endeavor very very soon!”

While at ESPN, Arnolt helped host SportsCenter and First Take. She has also reported on UFC events, which she plans to continue doing for events hosted by the mixed martial arts company.
