This is an IHeart podcast.

All right, welcome in.

It is Sunday night, May 2nd, the year of our Lord, 2021, late kick on the air. We've got a jam-packed show, as I've told you, I've said many times when we continue to say it, a college football renaissance, I believe, is just down the road 100, let's call it 23 days. Got feedback in my ear, by the way, if anyone can hear me. So we've got several rapid reactions to the Oregon Spring Game tonight, to the Notre Dame spring game tonight. I got lots of college football related NFL draft coverage. So it's not an NFL draft show, but I got a lot of stuff that is related to the college football sphere, as we like to call it. It's a truth teller. Boy, that draft is a truth teller. In a lot of good ways, in some less desirable ways,

but we're going to hit all those ways tonight. Alabama's 2017 class, I got some numbers that will

make you be the mind-blown emoji. Incredible stuff. And a reminder about the 2021 class, too.

Our Instagram feed continues to grow. At Late Kick Josh, thank you so much

for following their. Twitter, same deal. At Late Kick Josh. The two most popular messages I've been

getting every week for about the last month and a half is number one, I told my buddy about you,

or my buddy told me about you, and that's how I found your show. So thank you for that, because as I tell you all the time, you are the marketing department. We don't really have a late kick marketing department. It's you. So we have $3.50 pumped into the marketing budget because you take care of it. And the second thing that I hear, and I really encourage you to keep giving me this, is here is where I

listen to the show, or here's where I watch the show. Now, full disclosure, right now,

there's a major war going on between FedEx and UPS, but it has nothing to do with shipping, really.

I have been counting, and we're in the 50s for both, so it's neck and neck. It's crazy.

It's almost like both of these companies are equal size. UPS drivers, FedEx drivers. I've been getting hit up one after the other. It's like it's a ping pong game. It just alternates. I drive UPS routes and I listen. Well, I drive FedEx routes and I listen. Had a pilot the other day. Doesn't listen to Wiley's in the plane, mind you, but listens while he's on the clock. Can't give you his name for obvious reasons, but man, it's been fun.

So at Latekick Josh's in the plane, mind you, but listens Wiley's on the clock. Can't give you his name for obvious reasons, but man, it's been fun. So at late kick Josh, Twitter, Instagram, we got a jam-pack show. I got some other stuff to get to odds and ends. I'll do it as we go on tonight. So the NFL draft. NFL draft in the books. One thing that I am prepared to do around here is you see on election night sometimes

is I'm prepared to call something. Sometimes there's a lot of hyperbole pumped into this stuff. You got

your winners, you got your losers, you got your early drafts for 2022. Well, we're doing none of that.

But I was talking to Jesse earlier today and I was talking to Director of Emeritus Colin right before

we went on air. And there's one thing

that I feel is no longer a matter of opinion. I feel it's a matter of fact. And what I want to do is I

don't want you to just take my word for it. Sometimes I ask you to do that tonight, not necessary.

And what it all boils down to is this whole argument about conference superiority, conference supremacy,

and which one is here and which one is there. So I had our crew put together over the last,
