Does that mean he can't announce any more at all? Or how about just Ole Miss and UNLV games?

He was not fired. Apparently he will do a Pitt-Youngstopwn game that week.
As a Pitt fan, I have to ask why do we get the racist.

Disney owns ESPN and Abc News
I wonder why we don't see the Disney movie "Songs of the South" anymore? It was good old entertainment back in 1946. I guess that Brer Rabbit and his Tar Baby is just too hard to admit to now-a-days.
Of course they has gone the way of the likes of Al Jolson "The World's Greatest Entertainer" and Lil Black Sambo (remember Sambo's restaurant? Ours became a Denny's). Bugs Bunny had some questionable moments as did Betty Boop, Felix the Cat and many others. I bet very few here remember any of them Nazis.
No wonder Beaner's Coffee shop became Big "B" Coffee. When is the Zionist Big Boy statues going to get pulled down? What about Colonel Sanders? He's a southern capitalist pig selling soul food! What about Ronald McDonald? I guess that Scots are a bunch of silly clowns anyway. Can't forget Burger King, he's a white monarch, and a really creepy one too.
"Zippy do-dah" folks.

Apparently, even being Asian doesn’t mean people won’t take you for being a white nationalist.
According to the popular college-football blog Outkick the Coverage, ESPN pulled an Asian announcer from calling a University of Virginia football game. The announcer’s name is Robert Lee.
“Did I mention that Robert Lee is Asian?” blogger Clay Travis asked rhetorically in a post that poured scorn over the popular sports network for political correctness, calling it “MSESPN.”
Citing “multiple Outkick fans inside ESPN,” Mr. Travis said Mr. Lee was pulled from the Cavaliers Sept. 2 game in Charlottesville against William and Mary “because they were concerned that having an ASIAN FOOTBALL ANNOUNCER NAMED ROBERT LEE would be offensive to some viewers.”

This is not a hoax.
ESPN is insane.
So an Asian man that happens to have the name Robert Lee can not work a UVA game because ESPN thinks his NAME will trigger people.
The world has gone nuts.
