247 Sports ranked the potential wins that would cause the most excitement from the fanbase…is it an obvious order or not?

July 7, 2021 by Leave a Comment

-Brian Christopherson ranked the Oklahoma game No. 1, Ohio State No. 2, Wisconsin No. 3, Michigan No. 4, and Iowa No. 5. Anyone have a problem with that?

-Illinois was at No. 6…should any other game go ahead of that or is that obvious because it’s the first game of the season and against a conference opponent?

Jake & Sip continue to discuss the roll out of NIL

July 7, 2021 by Leave a Comment

-Sip & Jake find the beginning of Name, Image, and Likeness to be an uncontrolled mess. What positive impact has the early adoption of this policy had on collegiate athletics? Or, has it all been negative?

-The Bucks and Suns started off the NBA Finals last night, and those 2 teams are never in that spot—it’s usually LeBron James vs. someone else…

July 6, 2021 by Leave a Comment

-The high dollar figure Rovell placed on Manning has caused many in the sports media to reflect on NIL further…what issues do Sip and Jake see in paying unproven recruits big money?

-What factors should go into and impact a player’s marketability and value? Should businesses emphasize proven production, social media audience, intangible star power or pro prospects?

-NIL will certainly change the pitches coaches offer recruits across all sports…will every coach be able to adapt to the new landscape of college sports?
