FOX is buying back the 2026 B1G Championship game from NBC for $45-55 million…Gus Johnson has to be happy Apr 09, 2026

Show notes

-NBC had the rights to the game in 2026 but apparently has been trying to offload it for a while, even asking as much as $70 million to

Amazon Prime and Netflix (which would have sucked colossally)…but FOX will get its rightful spot having the game back

-Last year’s epic Ohio State/Indiana title game was on FOX, and now all the Gus Johnson lovers will get their wish to have him on it

again

-Michigan wins the men’s basketball national championship and UCLA wins the women’s national championship…did we know

we’d be entering into a golden era of the B1G coming into 2026?

-Fred Hoiberg wins AP National Coach of the Year…did the overall success of the B1G this postseason validate that decision or

was it deserved before we knew how the postseason went?

-Berke Buyuktencel is off to the transfer portal…is he someone who might come back like Emmett Johnson did last year in the

portal?

Five years and nothing more could be coming for college sports eligibility---who pushes back on that? Apr 09, 2026

Show notes

-Yahoo Sports’ Ross Dellenger reported yesterday that the NCAA is exploring a change to its eligibility, ideally giving athletes 5 years of

eligibility from their 19 th birthday or high school graduation, with no redshirts or waivers

-We make fun of a sport that allows 6, 7, and sometimes 8 year athletes stick around….and it’s fine to make fun of that, because its

ridiculous…beyond athletes who want to make more NIL money, who says no to this?

his DUI but that doesn’t matter anymore anyways

-The big names of golf haven’t played a lot this year….Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, etc….does that affect the excitement coming in?

The first major domino has fallen as Berke Buyuktencel has entered the transfer portal…is there a chance he comes back still? Apr 09, 2026

Show notes

-Just after our show ended yesterday, we were informed that Berke would be entering the portal…a 61-game starter for Nebraska over

2 years since coming from UCLA

-There is always a chance he does what Emmett Johnson did and come back after entering in the portal…but as for now, it’s a spot that

needs to be addressed going forward
