I begin today's very special episode, a salute to 14 with some of my thoughts and stories of my time with the former head baseball coach at the U. of Minnesota for 42 years. Coach Anderson spent 50 years on the campus of the Minnesota. In his time there he was student Athlete, student Manager, Student Coach, Assistant Coach and finally the Head coach at the of 26. As the winning Coach in Gopher baseball and B1G baseball history. 14 cared more the people coached and tutored, than win and loses. The very honest was very loyal to those he came into contact with. You always knew were you stood with 14.
After returning from a commercial break, I was able catch up with Scott Mayatas former all B1G closer for the 2010 Gopher's regular season and tournament team. Scott was able to file in on how life is going after college baseball. We moved on to his thoughts of his as a player under 14 and how it has shaped him til this day. Scott was able to drive home the fact, that were not just a student under 14. Scott talked about how he developed, socially, academically and lastly as a ball player. We talked about road trips, games and team meals. Scott credits Coach Anderson , for his development as husband and a father.
I catch up with Brehz who lucky enough to work as a student manager for 2 legendary Gopher coaches. First, Clem "the Gem" Haskins and then finishing up his college with Gopher Baseball under John Anderson. We chatted like two old former equipment managers would. We discussed what we learned, the trips, the players and how mentors like 14 and others readied us for the next 50 years of our lives. To work hard, to lead, be a good parent and give back.
I finish the show with more thoughts on the man, legend and leader of people, Coach John Anderson.

I state off today's Pod with commentary on the language of Sports Media. They want us angry and hooked. Also, they way they describe athletes and mostly black athletes in inhumane terms. Whales, Weapons and Beast to name a few. The average then parrots what they hear and forget to look at the athletes as humans. Which makes it easy to mis-treat in print, online or a broadcast.
The CSC(College Sports Commission) has released info on the 1st year of True NIL Tracking and the numbers are astronomical. The amount of dollars are mind blowing and only growing. Due to the lack of control by the People who were put in place to control the spending.
LSU is making a major announcement this week and rumor is they will be the 1st in a big way to do something that schools and conferences have been careful about not doing. If they succeed in their efforts, this may cause other entities to join them in chase of the almighty dollar. Why are they willing to do so and what has lead them to this point.
The BIG XII held it's Media day for the 2026-27 school year. As you may guess, the Brendon Sworsby was the point of interest. Find out what was said and not said, during their media days. The BIG XII did announce a conference wide sponsorship deal. This deal will change the look of college uniforms and playing surfaces. The BIG XII was also, notified of more fallout involving the gambling QB at a different member institution stay. Deon Sanders gave a health status for the 2026 season and what is the BIG XII hoping for the 26-27 year.
The NFL's rush to PAY-dirt may cause problems for the colleges as they all fight for more money, more-money and more money. How on the back end this could hurt their labor pool.
I end the show some quick hits on the Jamie Pollard Iowa State long-time A.D. The frame work on how the Transfer portal could get more crazy and the bury the hatchet moment of Brent Yurmark and Texas Tech executives dinner, that didn't go as planned.

The Senate save college sports bill , if passed. Will have some side effects that only a small group of people knew about. This side effect will have wide sweeping changes in changes in college sports. We knew about some things about the Save college sports act, but the fine print was not read well.
I finish the show with more on why the NFL chose to do what they did.

The court injunction favorable ruling on behave of a college player has many layers. That everyone is in favor of rule until they can't have what they want. The player in question betted on games he was dressed for. He betted on games that he inside info of. He betted on NFL games that would get him suspended or banned, if he played in the NFL. He knew he doing something illegal and set a plan to hide and only when he got busted, did he claim as gambling addiction.
The school he transfered to file an injunction on behave, because they need him to play and didn't want to seem negative to future recruits.
Jeffery Kessler took his case and beat NCAA again, but is it him or it the real villain, the true corrupt people in college sports.
Clearly, the much needed ingredients of college sports are not important to these people who keep making ruling in favor of the school/athletes. The ruling smacks of corruption and the most of the one thing that we all must believe in for sports to magical. Listen to this episode and find who is truly beating the NCAA and does not care about purity of the game.

The show starts off a little different as usual. I go straight to commercial. When I come back, I begin with the news on a BIG XII player and bid to make a come back. Way is this so hard for the schools to accept when one of their knuckle heads screw up. Then some light hits on what was the big news out of the B1G meetings last week. Then I hit with news coming out of the SEC meetings this week. Also, the one topic they have magically gone silent on.
The topic of the day starts off with a story from the NFL and how the action of one it's players has maybe split up a locker room before the season.
Then I discuss why the much sought after relief of the SCORE ACT was never voted on.
Which leads me to talk about a heavy ask by the NAACP to their in this country. It's a heavy one and it will place a lot of pressure on young people as they make the biggest decision o the lives at this point.
I finish the pod by re-visiting the NFL story that I started the heaviness with in this episode.
