Summary
Andy and Ari help kick off your Super Bowl weekend with their ongoing reaction to the Bryan Harsin-Auburn drama. Will Harsin's approach to recruiting lead to his undoing at AU? How does he stack up against the likes of Billy Napier's, among others, first full recruiting cycle? Ari's at it again. The state of Oklahoma is fed up with him. But why? Plus, we need sponsoring by a truck brand, and Andy shares a very important Super Bowl PSA.
