  • Great B12 Content

    This is a great Big 12-centric podcast. It's nice to have high-quality content with solid thoughts and analysis focused on this conference. However, I will say—if we're going to talk about Ryder Lyons dropping in the recruiting rankings and complain about the Big 12's perception—I think it's worth mentioning Utah’s recruit, Kelvin Obot, who rose in those same rankings and went from a four-star to a five-star. The Big 12 is getting some respect out there, and I think that's something worth pointi... more

  • It’s a no from me

    Audio quality is pretty bad. Constant political statements. I don’t want to listen to your political preferences as I just want to hear Big 12 sports content. Seriously, just go look at their feed on Facebook. Huge turn off as it contains Trump memes and videos. Overall, I’m unsubscribing as the discussions are cringe and surface level at best.

    You didn’t cover Texas national title and how we are big 12s daddy!

    You can’t buy a title with a million dollar pitcher. Ha!

    Even you aren’t that stupid to believe Stephen A is for real. He says bad a nationalist and a globalist. He can’t be both. How much did he pay you to kiss his €££
