00:00You appreciate his smarts and everything about why he does what he does, and it's benefitted

00:13us in a huge way.

00:15If you look back, this week has been special in that story and kept leading the week within

00:20a whole.

00:21It allows you to be present and take advantage of that opportunity, so I appreciate his mindset

00:25on how he does that.

00:28The story within the week, if you look back each week, there's really cool stuff.

00:43There's more faces.

00:44I wouldn't just limit it to us two, but I would say this, I spent time in 2019 creating

00:51all of this stuff, and then now to 2024 with the wildest world you can live in.

01:00I think now, because it's so new, it's hard to grasp, but in 10-20 years, we'll appreciate

01:06the beginning of it all and how we can create rules that make sense and help one another.

01:13For the most part, I think there's a lot of good.

01:16With anything, there's bad, but if you look at all the good that's come from NIL and this

01:22world, it's benefitted a lot of people, families to come visit games, come watch them, and

01:28celebrate the good of guys being able to give back.

01:31I try to hold onto those rather than the craziness that could happen.

01:35And the craziness is Larry Ellison, one of the richest people on the planet, just flipped

01:39the number one recruit to Michigan, doesn't even watch college football.

01:42He kicked in $10 million a year.

01:44Is that a world that you think will help with college football with the richest people on

01:48the planet now?

01:50It just makes it bigger.

01:52If you look at the NFL and that brand of football, everyone's still a fan.

01:58It's got a lot more rules and it's been happening for a long amount of time.

02:02So I think in college, when that all clears up and we can adopt a new advantage of college

02:08football, then I think it'll help us.

02:12Do you have to watch? Are you a watch guy?
