Erin Andrews has a new job!

After an eight-year run at ESPN, the TV personality is stepping down to join FOX Sports, according to Sports Illustrated.

At her new post, the former College Game Day co-anchor is set to host a new Saturday prime time college football studio show, and will have roles in the network's NFL and MLB coverage.

"This was a difficult move but it was the right move because it's allowing me to do so many things that I probably would not have been able to do had I stayed at ESPN," the 34-year-old told the outlet in a Sunday interview. "It's a different way to expand my role. I'm not tired yet. I don't want to hang it up. I just need to get better and these were different opportunities that I would not be able to find anywhere but at Fox Sports."

Last year, Andrews filed a new $10 million invasion of privacy lawsuit for a 2008 incident where she was videotaped in the nude through the peephole of her Nashville hotel room. The reporter wanted $6 million, plus costs and interest, from the West End Marriot, and $4 million from Michael Barrett, the Chicago man who pleaded guilty to stalking her. (He was sentenced to 2.5 years in federal prison in 2010.)
