Summary

Much has changed in college football over the last year or so. Major changes that have completely shifted the landscape of the sport we live. Players being able to transfer one time without sitting out a season. Players being able to profit off their name, image and likeness, and boosters more than willing to help their favorite program reel in recruits using NIL money.

While it is a good time to be a college football player, what about the sport itself? Is it as great as it always was? Even better? Worse? Too early to tell? What might the future hold?

Matt Baxendell joins Dave Biddle for an in-depth discussion on this matter, plus we look ahead to Ohio State's Rose Bowl matchup against Utah and more.

All of that is coming your way on the Wednesday 5ish.

0:52.8	You'd have to get a waiver, of course, to not have to sit out a year.
0:55.8	So with the portal and name, image, and likeness, where are you at on this?
0:59.8	Do you like this?
1:00.8	Do you think it's bad for college football?
1:01.8	Are you kind of in a weight and C mode?
1:03.8	What do you think about this rapid change we've seen in college football over the last year?
1:07.8	Well, it's been a massive change.
1:08.8	It's the biggest shift of our lifetimes in college football.
1:11.8	I mean, the only thing I can compare this to is when all the college football games were on the lawsuit
1:16.8	to be able to be on TV back in the 80s before I was born.
1:19.8	So it's a massive shift.
