Summary
In this episode, Middlekauff thinks there's more momentum that an NFL season is going to happen than at anytime since the beginning of the Corona quarantine, why a week with several high profile arrests is a product of the lack of OTA's, and why new proposed changes to the Rooney Rule won't produce more minority head coaches. He also answers questions in the Middlekauff Mailbag. Follow John on twitter @JohnMiddlekauff and go to theherdnow.com to find the latest content. Subscribe now!
