Larry and Producer Tony break down why live sports are more valuable than ever — and why networks keep cashing in.Then we pivot to the mess in State College. Penn State’s coaching search has spiraled into a full-blown disaster, with Signing Day passing and only four commitments on the board. Tony compares the situation to the SMU death penalty era and explains why PSU may be digging a hole that takes years to escape. Meanwhile, James Franklin is already rebuilding Virginia Tech with recruits he flipped straight out of Penn State’s class.Next, we go around the college landscape: USC lands a monster recruiting class, Vanderbilt tries (and fails) to schedule a 13th game to impress the CFP committee, and transfer portal chaos looms large as more players relocate than ever.Then we welcome CBS Sports NBA writer Jasmyn Wimbish, who breaks down:Why Oklahoma City’s 21–1 start is even scarier than it looksHow Sam Presti “broke the system” with OKC’s draft-pick war chestDetroit’s rise to the top of the EastAnd the biggest story: Is Giannis about to be traded?Jasmyn lays out realistic landing spots — Knicks, Spurs, Hawks, even OKC — and explains why the clock may already have run out in Milwaukee.We close with more college hoops analysis, including early-season surprises, warning signs at Indiana, and another heavyweight weekend slate.And in today’s Moment of Awe:The New York City mayoral write-in votes are out… and they are wild.
