About this episode

The episode discusses the surprising clearance of Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby to play football amidst gambling controversies, along with updates on the World Cup and NFL news.

I truly cannot believe how crazy college sports have gotten. Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby has been cleared to play football. Brendan Sorsby was ruled ineligible for gambling against his own team. Brendan Sorsby placed over 9,000 bets over the past few years. But! A Lubbock County judge granted him an injunction to play and the college football world was set on fire. (17:22) The World Cup continues to be a mess. Beautiful. It’s such a mess! (28:00) The 49ers still have a Brandon Aiyuk problem that they haven’t been able to get out of. Will he be released? Will he be traded? The team hopes it can happen soon. (37:12) Miami Heat have a new TV network. They are headed to “free” TV! (46:10) Let’s discussing what’s going on in Kansas City.
