Welcome back to Power Hour. The Athlet athletics Tuesday National College Football podcast hosted by yours truly, Nicole Auerbach.

I'm thrilled to be joined by my friend and colleague Michael Feller of Stadium to break down the biggest storylines in college football this week in an hour or less.

Five stars, because much like your favorite recruits, we want to make an immediate impact.

And Felger, there is, there's only one story of the day to us, to the two of us.

For this specific podcast, the most major story of the day is that Max Gilliam

had finally acknowledged going on below deck. Yeah. I mean, our back, that was huge. Like,

and my wife literally like, when he, when as soon as the names came up, I was like, that's the

quarterback for you and LV. I know exactly who that is. And she was like, it's the who?, I was like, that's the quarterback for UNLV. I know exactly who that is.

And she was like, it's the who? And I was like, it's the quarterback for UNLV. He's the quarterback. He plays in the Mountain West. I know exactly who he is. And then I was like, I'm not going to tweet about this because maybe like, I don't want him to get in trouble. I don't want like. Well, well, so I actually, I did. I think that was my immediate thought. It was not, is he going to get in trouble? But is he allowed to do this? Right? Like, I guess the... Okay, so basically, for those who don't know the show, the show is a reality show about the people who work on the crew of a super yacht, super yacht, like super ritzie. So where are they this season? Feld, are they in Mediterranean? No, no, no. This is below deck. So below deck takes place, I believe, in the Caribbean. So it's like Antigua and it's all the, they go to Jamaica and they go to all these other places. So they're there. And then it shows up.

It's Dax and Max.

They're the co-charters.

Show up. And I mean, they're 21-year-old kids. Just like, you know, doing which they're never. They're never that young. Like usually these are like really, really rich, like 50, 60 year old people who can afford a supergat like and, and they bring like eight of their friends. So this was a group of like 21, 22 year olds that all looked like they were about 14. Yeah. It was, whew, it was, um, it was a rough. I mean, but here's a here's what I will say. And I understand that he issued an apology and he said, I'm sorry. that's not the character that I have. Well, no, no, no, let me read you part of the apology. Okay, this we need to, this is the greatest apology in the history of sports apologies. I'll just read you the whole thing. I would like to apologize for my poor judgment while on the TV show below deck and acknowledge that I have made a mistake that I will learn from. While it was not my idea or any of my friends' ideas to eat sushi off of a model, I should

have exercised better judgment and decline the idea immediately when it was brought up by the

producers. This is not a reflection of my character or the way I was raised, nor a reflection

of the culture of UNLV football. We'd like to humbly move past this and focus my time and energy on our game

against the University of Hawaii this weekend. I mean, that's, it's, I mean, it's gold. It's,

it's gold. Here's the reality. Um, what I was going to say is they did a, they ate everything.

Like, they were, they were the most 21 year olds of

21 year olds because they were not picky they were they were the best charter because all they

wanted to do was drink and hang out and they ate whatever the food was hey do you guys have
