There is fallout from the 2024 College football season that NO one was counting on happening. The athletes find something more valuable than NIL dollars and it's "playing time". They have that its more valuable to them than money. The athletes want exposure for the pro's, their next team or a bN729HY6etter NIL deal. They refuse to sit wait their turn , they want it now.
Also, they other thing to fall out of the use of money to pay athletes in the future. Schools are being forced to hang onto Coaches, that would have been fired by this time of the season. Normally, schools would have turned to a booster to write a check to make a coach disappear. Now, the schools will need that booster money for past payments to athletes eligible to received a cut of the House settlement case. The will need that money for future athletes payments. This is also something thing the athletes wanted for a different reason.

I started the episode by reading a message I received from a high School friend.
Then I welcomed todays guest Former Women's Track Coach Gary Wilson on to the show , by wishing him a Happy Birthday. We discussed the failure in fund raising at the U. of MN. for athletics. We quickly reminisced about the real Board of regents at the U. We chatted about the over side of the coin of athletics. The non-money side and the benefits having a wide range teams offered at a major university. What will be the downfall of cutting opportunities for other athletes and the effect of society. We couldn't figure out a way to save those teams including the courts and Congress. Lastly, what effect will this have on our Olympic moment. (U.S.A.)

My conversation is base on the ever changing landscape of College sports.
I asked Doogie off the top , what does he think about College sports today. He gave an answer that many of us have. We discussed the parity in College football due to the Transfer Portal and NIL. He asked me what I'm seeing and I was able to fill in holes on the topic. We talked about the lack of fund at the U of MN and other places and how they will survive during period without the funds to compete. We are both in agreement that future for some sports at the U are cloudy at best. I then asked him a somewhat unfair question about the lack of local media coverage on the changing world. We finished by talking about the Twins sale and other Topics.

This was to be an interview with a member of the local media about college sports future, it took a hard turn to the Pro's. MN Twins baseball are up for sell. I lost my guest but gained a story. I started with giving updates about the every changing world of College Athletics and I was told about the news of the day by the person who was to be todays guest. I rarely talk about pro sports , but having this fall in my lap, was a twist. The Pohlad family who have owned the tWINs for close to 40 yrs are deciding that they have had enough. I go into the reason that may have brought this to be.

In this episode I talk about the best soap opera going today. The back stabbing and deal breaking that is going on today in college athletics. This being lead by adults who are in charge of the school, the Presidents, A.D.'s and Conference commissioners. People who are in the hunt for the all mighty dollar. TO make their boosters and mega donors happy.
I give an upbeat update on the ACC saga with FSU and Clemson. A agreement is being worked on to make everyone happy.
NIL drama at UNLV , where the starting QB has choose to leave after 3 games claim that a NIL promise was not kept. Listen to why he did so and what the school is saying.

We were celebrating the settlement of the House (Hubbard/Cater) Case with the members institutions of The NCAA, The NCAA and plaintiffs of the cases. Paying past for lost NIL and bringing revenue sharing to todays athletes. Well, The judge is wanting better language on NIL/Collectives being kept. The schools want to bring it in house and the Judge doesn't see that way. If the NIL language is clear up the Judge may deny the settlement. I talk about the possible fallout if the case goes back to court. A new term has been born in this discussion.
There is more info on the rebirth of the Pac12. Also, a discussion on who will be next to be asked to join the Pac12.
Plus, more evidence on why alliances are a bad idea when it comes to college sports.
There is a Woj bomb?, in the show.

You know the theme of my podcast normally and yes I had to ask them what do them what do they think of todays college athletics.
There are some laughs and a lot of opinions in this episode. Sit back and relax and listen to Gophers of yester year tell you what they think.
