And with that, I'll ask you, are you ready for rapid fire?

0:13.9

Oh, yeah, baby.

0:15.5

All right.

0:16.1

So there's a few questions that came in the chat regarding NIL and paying players and stuff like that.

0:24.4

And we've got the question about the UNLV quarterback that's going to come up in rapid fire.

0:29.2

So I was kind of saving those for that.

0:32.1

We're going to start with this one, though.

0:33.4
