Yeah, one of them (I think Ross) said he sees college football looking similar to the NFL, with the B1G & SEC being like the AFC/NFC. They'll have a playoff between the two, and the rest of us nobodies will be left out in our irrelevant league..

It's funny to me how he keeps saying "nobody really knows" over & over, but then he keeps coming back to that being how everything ends up. It's like he doesn't even consider the possibility of the Big 12/PAC/ACC teams forming a 3rd or 4th relevant conference.
Hawks seem convinced that the Big 10 is miles away the second best football conference. Take out THE Ohio State and what do they have?

I do think the ratio of money to success in the Big 10 is a little underwhelming but the Big 10 does have some blue bloods that have seen success and are quite valuable. Looking at 2022 recruiting rankings they have 3 schools in the top 10: https://247sports.com/Season/2022-Football/CompositeTeamRankings/

That's Penn St, Michigan, and Ohio State. Penn St and Michigan may not have won a NC in awhile but they are recruiting top talent.

Did they announce yet who the new host will be? I really liked the format with CW and Ross, one being a Hawk and the other a Clone.

Has Blum applied? He'd do well.

I feel like Blum would make Ross sound stupid on a regular basis, he absolutely would be great on the show. That said, as much as they've had Ross & Sean together lately (in mornings and afternoons), I'm thinking they're going to go with him.

Blum stepped back from his once-a-week football radio gig to spend more time with his family. I don’t know why he’d take the headache and pay cut of a daily afternoon radio show.

Stanz would also be good, and also expose Ross in the same way. I still think the best we can hope for is Emery.

I don't really like listening to Emory and Sean is meh. They're killing that slot if they don't have both ISU and Iowa in my totally unbiased ISU fan's opinion

Some of these hosts need to
get back to us when they know something,in my opinion.
I quit listening over a year ago to kxno. I know if I was selling my house, Peterson would be the the guy I would want, but I sure as hell would not buy one from him.
