This is an IHeart podcast.

And welcome to Linking. It's live. It is Sunday night, June 6th year of our Lord, 2021. I'm looking at this sheet. It looks like we have about four shows in front of us. We are indeed jam-packed. It's only going to be one show tonight. And my word you and the control room in Connecticut and Nashville. We won't go an hour. But we do have a lot to talk about. So thank you so much for being here. Have you guys been watching? By the way, the college baseball, the women's college

World Series and softball. I'm going to be in Oklahoma City this week, by the way. I'm headed out there for the World Series. That's how captivated I am by it. The crowds are insane. And the reason I'm mentioning that is because I think it's just a small precursor, just a little taste, a little

preview as we enter the summer months of what college football is going to be like this fall. Insanity,

purely wild. Renaissance year. Going to talk about all that tonight. So on this show, I'm going to give you some SEC West swing games. Basically by swing game, that equals the game where when you get to December and the dust is settled, you look back and you say, that's the game that determined this. If your season went off the rails, it was because of this game. If you exceeded expectation, it's also because of this game. So we're going to discuss that. We've also got a proposal that I think a lot of you in Happy Valley need to listen to, but also it extends well beyond Penn State and it applies to the entire country.

If you're an athletic director all the way down to just a season ticket holder or a fan that

just likes to sit at home on the couch and watch on Saturday, I think there may be a little

different way we need to go about 2021 because of what 2020 was like. We shall discuss.

Speaking of discussing, what if I told you that aact 12 head coach openly ripped his conference and their

TV partners this week? And chances are you don't even know about it. 80% of you probably don't

even know what I'm talking about. Well, it was notable and we will discuss it on this show. And

JT. Tuomaloow, the number one recruit in America. We don't talk a ton of individual recruiting on

this show when we do. You can rest assured it matters.

It matters nationally.

This one matters nationally.

We got some intel.

I probably have a little bit further to go in terms of prediction on his recruitment than I ever have.

I don't make a ton of recruiting predictions.

I don't even enter crystal balls on 247 sports.com.

But I have done a little digging today,

talked to a number of hashtag inside sources, not JTT himself, although he was on the signing day

show, so we have spoken to him recently, but I'm going to touch on all that. I want to thank you
