    Mostly good content but boy are they boring. Stop saying "and stuff like that" it's become distracting.

  • Audio Production is awful

    They’ve added shows this year but somehow it sounds like their audio has gotten worse. It’s barely passable as a phone recording half the time. Get some proper equipment and make it actually sound like some professionals doing it.

    And quit complaining about conference realignment.

Hoosiers' NCAA Wrestling Preview with Dan Fongaro

Jake Moran is viewed as the best bet for All-American status due to his consistency, recent strong showings at Big Tens, and favorable bracket prospects that could place him on the podium.
Hoosiers' NCAA Wrestling Preview with Dan Fongaro

Hoosier Huddle Podcast: ESPN's Bill Connelly Talks IUFB and More
Q: What are your thoughts on the current college football playoff system?
I would say getting rid of the weekly show would hide the problem but not eliminate it; I don't love the current human committee system and suggest 16 teams including all conference champions as a better model.
