Welcome to the show.

Ivey Nation Sports Talk is up and rolling on a Tuesday.

And as promised, we've got a special guest with us here today.

RJ Abatia, our old friend from the 24-7 USC site, USC football.com.

RJ, I can honestly say it's never been better to talk to you than right now.

Well, it's never been more well-earned.

It's doing everything we had to do to make this happen technologically.

Honestly, I don't know.

I need to know, I need your media guide or something.

I mean, we've got to be approaching some sort of a tenure milestone, some sort of an anniversary, something.

That's true.

I got to be up there, right?

Like, that's, I can, I can safely say, I think that you are the most frequent guest on this show.

The longest, this, you could say you're the, this is the intersectional guest, I guess. I am the intersectional Shalaley holder is what you're the this is the uh intersectional guest i guess r james the intersectional shtali holder is what

you're you're trying to say basically that's good i'm i'm glad that's uh that's going to the top of my

CV as soon as we're done with this so there you go there you go well i'll just i'll just remind

our uh our live uh viewers and and listeners of the show. Remember that, you know, I know that Notre Dame and USC arrivals, at least for now, and we'll get to that in a minute. But remember, RJ is just the messenger. So don't get mad at RJ about anything that he says today. We're going to talk about, you know, again, a lot of different things.

And a couple listeners have some questions in there.

You know, as long as you have nice, cordial questions, you know, we might throw some in there for RJ over the course of this conversation.

Don't ask anything.

You wouldn't ask Jesus.

There you go.
