Summary

Rich and the guys weigh in on fiery UCLA Head Basketball Coach Mick Cronin ejecting his own player, Steven Jamerson, during a game after the center committed a (borderline hard but not dirty) foul on a Michigan State player, followed by the coach going off on a reporter who asked a seemingly legit question during his postgame media session. Former All-Pro LB Luke Kuechly tells Rich what it means to be elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame, discusses the Carolina Panthers’ big turnaround last season going from worst to first in the NFC South, and weighs in on Sam Darnold’s inspiring redemption story that culminated in a Super Bowl win for the Seattle Seahawks QB.
