Latest Episodes

Jared recaps the Cubs win, but why they remain in trouble. And Purdue got some football commits today!

Everyone seems to be cashing in around college sports except fans. Later, Jared talks Luke Ertel being Mr basketball and why Purdue won't get some big name from the portal.

How do we feel about the Michigan natty? And it's getting worse for the Cubs just 10 games in.

Portal opened today for Basketball, and it's not about who's going in that's upsetting Jared. Plus, the Cubs are off to a bad start, and now the rotation is dealing with injuries. It's not the month for that to happen.
