Yo, I was not expecting to do this episode of the House of L podcast this week, but stuff

0:23.2

happens sometimes and it's weird.

0:26.3

So check this out. I had a conversation with Dwayne PV, the athletic director at DePaul.

0:35.0

It'll be out next week. So I was like, you know, I should probably check in on some other

0:40.3

schools too. College basketball season is starting up. I usually, whether it's the radio

2:01.6

context inside of this interview. Chicago State has started a feasibility study to figure

2:10.2

out if they can add football. I, I'm as shocked as you are. But it's been a minute since,

2:22.4

I mean, honestly, it's been like a hundred years. Well, not a hundred, but 80 years since

2:28.4

the city of Chicago has had a relevant football program. You have to go back to Stags University
