Speaker 1 (00:01):
Welcome to Unafraid Show Daily Live, where you get the
top sports news quickly and officially, and of course we
come with the truth. And today we got three topics.
First of which Lincoln Riley's comments at Big ten Media Day.
He is absolutely considering running from all the smoke and
(00:22):
I hate it. I hate it. It is alarming. It
is a problem in college football that needs to be fixed.
The second thing up Snoop Dogg being the final Olympic
torch bearer for the United States at the Paris Olympics
is probably the most incredible plot twist in American history.
(00:42):
Who could have predicted that? And the last thing is
there's another major change in college athletics. The NCAA is
finalizing the antitrust lawsuit settlement on Friday, and the fallout
will be felt for years to come. But the silver
lining in this whole situation is that the increased number
(01:03):
of scholarships in all of sports. But with everything positive
that happens, you do have some negatives and we will
analyze all of those, but we're gonna start today. Lincoln Riley,
he is attempting to cut every corner it takes to win,
when in reality, you want your coach to be willing
(01:24):
to move every mountain necessary. And he made some comments
at Big ten Media Day. I hated it. And the
thing that I love with my college football coach, with
my players, with anything else, is that when they say, hey,
somebody needs to call nine one one, but now for me,
(01:46):
you don't have video. That's what I want him to be.
And he is considering running from all the smoke. So
here is the comment that really rubbed me the wrong way.
And this was Lincoln Riley, but this is a symptom
that other of college football. That's something that needs to
be changed, and especially why college football needs a commissioner,
(02:08):
because the biggest problem in college football is not nil.
It is not the transfer portal, it's not coaches leaving
salary caps, none of that. It is scheduling. That is
the first problem that needs to get fixed. That a
commissioner would help with some sort of uniform scheduling, especially
since there is more conference consolidation with the conference realignment.
(02:34):
So Lincoln Riley, he said, quote Bama was ahead of
the curve for years. They did not schedule for their fans.
They scheduled to win championships. That's the first thing and
on one hand, he is one hundred percent right, and
I would criticize Bama for it all the time, like,
how are you going to be that powerful? And you
(02:56):
are not scheduling tough non conference games and granted, people like, yeah,
but they did schedule Florida, State of Wisconsin, but you
have three others because you only play eight conference games
in the SEC. Oh it's a gauntlet, though, but they
didn't play Georgia. This is where fans deserve to be
(03:18):
to get the best out of players, the best out
of their school, the best out of everything. They deserve
it because as a college football fan, I want to
see great games regardless of whether or not my team
wins or loses. And Lincoln Riley said that he would
(03:39):
love to keep the Notre Dame game alive, but if
eliminating the game would help USC win a national title,
then they would look at it. What Notre Dame in
USC is one of the biggest games in college football
Every single year they played for the Golden Challe and
(04:00):
fans looked forward to that. And so to take that
away to win a national championship, it is it screams scared,
It screams running from all the smoke, and I want
my head football coach to be running through all of
the smoke. I don't think that that sends the right
message to your players to say, oh, yeah, we do
(04:22):
need a little easier of a schedule. And there is
a difference in what Alabama was doing and other SEC
teams were doing when you had the BCS, which was
a two team playoff essentially a championship game, and then
when you went to four teams where you're only having
four teams when there was five Power conferences. So yes,
(04:42):
there was some schedule manipulation that happened. But in the
day and age where you have twelve to fourteen teams
in a playoff, twelve for the next two years and
then fourteen after that, why is there any need to
cut corners on your schedule? And this is where it
Commission would give a charge to the College Football Playoff
(05:03):
Committee and be like, yo, these non conference schedules, we
not having none of that. You are going to be penalized.
You must play ten Power five games regardless and SEC
bumping on up to nine conference games. Everybody's playing nine
conference games, ten Power five games. That's it schedule uniformity.
(05:23):
Because the Big Ten, great conference. And you had Pitts
Pat Nardoozi at ACC media Day say you damn right,
we're playing West Virginia again, and we would play Penn
State two if they would schedule us. So he's essentially
calling out James Franklin and then for Lincoln Riley to
(05:45):
cite Alabama and what they've been doing when the last
time USC played Alabama they get lost by damn near fifty.
And this is not just a USC problem, this is
a college football problem. We got a video dropping on
Unafraid show about the Georgia schedule Ucla because that game
(06:07):
in twenty twenty five got canceled and UCLA replaced the
game with Utah, another Power five game, probably the best
team in the Big twelve, and Georgia replaced that game
with Marshall. How should Georgia fans feel about that? There
has to be some scheduling uniformity and fans, we have
(06:27):
to stop buying into the lie that the national championship
is the end all be all. Know that end all
be all is great college football because we love college football,
and yes we want our teams to win a championship.
But remember fans, Alabama fans got criticized. Other fans have
gotten criticized. Why are you leaving the stadium early in
(06:49):
blowouts because you scheduled Deviride and you're up by fifty
points at halftime. Yes, I'm out of here, or no,
I'm not coming because it's expensive to park, expensive to eat,
and I'm not getting a quality football game and I
can be watching other good games at home, or partying
with the with the homies, or at something, doing the
(07:11):
honeydew List with the white something. All right? Next up,
Snoop Doggee, dull Snoop dog He is going to be
the final Olympic torch bearer when they light the torch
for the United States as they head to the Paris Olympics.
(07:33):
If this is not the most incredible plot twist in
American history, I don't know what is. Go back to
nineteen ninety six when he was on trial and got
and did not get convicted. He was innocent, not guilty
of first and second degree murder him and his bodyguard,
(07:57):
and the demonization of gangster, rap of death row records,
of smoking weed, everything that Snoop Dogg stands for. If
I place you back in nineteen ninety six and I
tell you that Snoop dog not only would be a
flag bearer I'm well a torch bearer, but that he
(08:17):
would be under a beloved American figure, that he would
be doing things with Martha Stewart, and that Martha Stewart
would actually be the convicted felon and not Snoop. If
I had told you that, what would you had told me, George?
No way? No how? What do you do find? Find? God? No,
(08:42):
Snoop Dogg is out here making children's albums, children's music albums. What?
And this is so America. This is second chance culture.
This is you can come from the slums, come from
bad situations, and literally change your entire life. But the
(09:03):
thing that Snoop is is authentic. He is not pretending
to be somebody that he's not. And that's hard for
a lot of people because we want to present our
representative because we don't want to we don't want the backlash,
we don't want this. I mean, it's just like people
on my social media if I talk about politics or something,
(09:24):
they're like sports. That ain't just me. I'm a well
rounded person. I care about football, care about basketball, care
about my kids, care about my family, care about what's
going on in the country that's authentically who I am
and Snoop Dogg being the torch bearer, and it reminds
me of what happened with Canada with the Winter Olympics
(09:45):
when they put that moose in the beaver on skates.
Just be who you are. We saw that with China
when they hosted the Olympics. We saw exactly what China
was about. And Snoop Dogg is I mean like it
is not. It wasn't fathomable when you were looking at
(10:07):
what was going on with doctor Dre Shug Knight. You
had the death of Biggie, depth of Tupac to ever
think that Snoop Dogg blazing up all over the place,
that he would be a person that people would be like, Yo,
we gotta protect Snoop dog at all costs. We gotta
protect Snoop dog at all costs. Do you realize how
(10:29):
impossible that that seemed? And how great of an American
story that this is? And a lesson to all of us.
Be you be. You don't be anybody else, because guess what,
everybody ain't gonna like it, but somebody will like it.
Lasting up there is another major change in college athletics.
(10:51):
The NCAA is finalizing the antitrust lawsuit settlement this Friday,
and the fallout is gonna be felt for years, and
it's not even resolved because you've already had additional lawsuits
being filed for players in the March madness saying yo,
(11:11):
you're still using my name, image and likeness without paying me.
And this settlement doesn't go back. It doesn't even go
back to when I was in college and I got
drafted in O three. It doesn't even go back that far.
And you're using TI in Setney, You're using you know,
Valparaiso and all of these shots, and nobody's getting paid
for it. Well, the newest thing that's happened is is
(11:34):
that there is an increase in the number of scholarships
as it relates to this settlement, and there are caps
on the number of players on the team. So in football,
instead of having eighty five scholarship players, that's gonna go
up to one hundred and five, men's and women's basketball
goes from twelve to fifteen. In terms of the number
(11:56):
of scholarships and roster sizes and base you could have
eleven point seven scholarships. That's going up to thirty four,
softball is going up to twenty five, and volleyball is
going up to eighteen. So in all, there's gonna be
additional sixty scholarships that are available for distribution in those
five sports. So for a parent like me, I've already
(12:19):
got one kid in college on scholarship. I have two
more athletes coming who are in ninth and eighth grade,
and you know, a five year old and we'll see
what happens with him. So I got a volleyball player
and another athlete, probably a football player. So does this
help them? The answer to that is yes, because there
are more scholarships available. But here is the thing is
(12:43):
that the schools don't all have to walk up to
that number. They don't have to be at that number
of scholarships. So you're gonna still have for baseball, volleyball,
and softball you don't. And yeah, for those sports, you
don't have to give out full scholarships. You can still
(13:05):
give out partial scholarships like they do now, but in
football and basketball, any scholarship is a full scholarship. So
that's one of the things that one of the nuances
of it. But One of the things that people have
continuously talked about about this settlement is how is this
going to impact Title nine in the revenue sharing model.
(13:27):
So there are additional women's scholarships to balance that out.
But here is where the bad part of this starts
is that schools. Because you have to remember how schools
are run. There is the school for the most part. Granted,
there are some places like Arizona State and other schools
that where the school and the athletic department are playing together. Well,
(13:52):
in most instances, the athletic department is treated as a
completely separate entity as the university. So some of the
schools are not making money, like you have cal lot
of debt, ucla lot of debt, and they're getting loans
from the school instead of the school integrating it as
part of their budget. The way you don't have that problem,
(14:16):
and that means that you're gonna have a bunch of
schools that look at Olympic sports and non revenue sports
and try to reduce their footprint. So that means either
the number of scholarships, the amount of support staff, how
much they're paying their coaches, any of that. Because there's
additional money going out in the revenue generating sports. Now,
(14:39):
as a part of that new revenue sharing model that
begins in the twenty five to twenty six season, there
it's going to be scholarship. Those scholarship restrictions are then
eliminated and changed. Now, what's going to happen with the
House settlement terms is with the addition of you know,
(15:00):
football going from eighty five to one hundred and five,
baseball going from eleven point seven to thirty four. That's
going to change everything when it comes to that two
point seven seven billion dollars. Now, this means that the
new revenue sharing model is going to permit schools to
distribute of upwards of twenty million dollars annually. So the
(15:23):
big question is how is this going to impact football
in particular, because in the short term and the easy thinking,
you're like, okay, teams will be able to stack talent
that instead of having eighty five scholarships, now you've got
one hundred and five. The best teams are going to
stack talent. That sounds good, right, but isn't. What we're
(15:46):
experiencing out in college football now is that kids are
not willing to sit as long and they want to
go out and play. So how can you imagine Oregon, Georgia, Alabama,
any of those schools stacking talent the way that you
know Alabama and some other teams used to back in
(16:07):
the day before the transfer portal. So how are they
going to be able to stack talent when kids are like, yo,
I'm not sitting here. I want to bounce. I want
to play somewhere. So I don't think that that one
hundred and five, you know, scholarship number is then going
to impact the amount of stacked talent on rosters because
(16:28):
kids are still going to bounce. They are. But when
you look at schools like Clemson, let's look at Clemson
and Dabbo Sweeney because I do believe that there's going
to be a big impact on them. And on one hand,
I won one hundred percent support Dabbo. I agree with
the fact that he doesn't take transfers. I do think
(16:50):
that he should on some level, you know, to fill
certain positions. But the thing that I do love is
that Dabbo stands on business with his recruiting. So he's
telling his coaches, listen, fam we not going to the
transfer report to fix what you did wrong in recruiting,
so you better coach these kids up and get them right.
(17:10):
Otherwise I got to find a new coach. So that
part I love, because if you're a Clemson player, you
don't have to worry about the team saying oh man, oh,
this kid's only an eighty nine. Overall, we can get
a ninety three in let's bring them on in No,
you can grow and develop. So now, if you're Clemson
(17:34):
and the scholarship limit goes up to one hundred and five,
so yes, you can recruit as many high school players
as that you want up to that number, give them
scholarships because this is essentially limits the place for a
lot of walk on So you're going to have more
kids getting scholarships. But is Dabbo gonna be able to
hang on to high school players because they do want
(17:56):
to play? And if high school players bounce and you're
not taking trans how does that then impact your roster
and everything that you have going on? Legitimate question, but
this is something that we have to pay attention to
and that we are going to continue to monitor here
on the Unaffraid Show. I thank you guys for joining me.

Pat Nardoozi at ACC media Day say you damn right,
we're playing West Virginia again, and we would play Penn

calling out James Franklin and then for Lincoln Riley to
(05:45):
cite Alabama and what they've been doing when the last
time USC played Alabama they get lost by damn near fifty.
And this is not just a USC problem, this is
a college football problem. We got a video dropping on
Unafraid show about the Georgia schedule Ucla because that game

But remember fans, Alabama fans got criticized. Other fans have
gotten criticized. Why are you leaving the stadium early in
(06:49):
blowouts because you scheduled Deviride and you're up by fifty
points at halftime. Yes, I'm out of here, or no,
I'm not coming because it's expensive to park, expensive to eat,
and I'm not getting a quality football game and I
can be watching other good games at home, or partying
with the with the homies, or at something, doing the
(07:11):
honeydew List with the white something. All right? Next up,
Snoop Doggee, dull Snoop dog He is going to be
the final Olympic torch bearer when they light the torch

If this is not the most incredible plot twist in

(08:17):
would be under a beloved American figure, that he would

No way? No how? What do you do find? Find? God? No,

And this is so America. This is second chance culture.
This is you can come from the slums, come from
bad situations, and literally change your entire life. But the
(09:03):
thing that Snoop is is authentic. He is not pretending
to be somebody that he's not. And that's hard for
a lot of people because we want to present our
representative because we don't want to we don't want the backlash,
we don't want this. I mean, it's just like people

me of what happened with Canada with the Winter Olympics
(09:45):
when they put that moose in the beaver on skates.
Just be who you are. We saw that with China

was about. And Snoop Dogg is I mean like it

big question is how is this going to impact football
in particular, because in the short term and the easy thinking,
you're like, okay, teams will be able to stack talent
that instead of having eighty five scholarships, now you've got
one hundred and five. The best teams are going to
stack talent. That sounds good, right, but isn't. What we're
(15:46):
experiencing out in college football now is that kids are
not willing to sit as long and they want to
go out and play. So how can you imagine Oregon, Georgia, Alabama,
any of those schools stacking talent the way that you
know Alabama and some other teams used to back in
(16:07):
the day before the transfer portal. So how are they
going to be able to stack talent when kids are like, yo,
I'm not sitting here. I want to bounce. I want
to play somewhere. So I don't think that that one
hundred and five, you know, scholarship number is then going
to impact the amount of stacked talent on rosters because
(16:28):
kids are still going to bounce. They are. But when
you look at schools like Clemson, let's look at Clemson
and Dabbo Sweeney because I do believe that there's going
to be a big impact on them. And on one hand,
I won one hundred percent support Dabbo. I agree with
the fact that he doesn't take transfers. I do think
(16:50):
that he should on some level, you know, to fill
certain positions. But the thing that I do love is
that Dabbo stands on business with his recruiting. So he's
telling his coaches, listen, fam we not going to the
transfer report to fix what you did wrong in recruiting,
so you better coach these kids up and get them right.
(17:10):
Otherwise I got to find a new coach. So that
part I love, because if you're a Clemson player, you
don't have to worry about the team saying oh man, oh,
this kid's only an eighty nine. Overall, we can get
a ninety three in let's bring them on in No,
you can grow and develop. So now, if you're Clemson
(17:34):
and the scholarship limit goes up to one hundred and five,
so yes, you can recruit as many high school players
as that you want up to that number, give them
scholarships because this is essentially limits the place for a
lot of walk on So you're going to have more
kids getting scholarships. But is Dabbo gonna be able to
hang on to high school players because they do want
(17:56):
to play? And if high school players bounce and you're
not taking trans how does that then impact your roster
and everything that you have going on? Legitimate question, but
this is something that we have to pay attention to
and that we are going to continue to monitor here
on the Unaffraid Show. I thank you guys for joining me.
