The Future of College Athletics & Fanless Sporting Events

As Zion Williamson faces impermissible benefit allegations tracing back to his high school recruitment, Mike and Doug break down how the alleged scandal could effect college athletics as a whole. This leads to continued discussion regarding the NBA G League and its potential to change college basketball forever.

The discussion evolves beyond basketball as Mike and Doug observe how college football could face a similar fate down the road... and how players at one position in particular could benefit from a one-and-done rule.

In the show's final segment, Doug provides an update on the potential return of American sports while Mike proposes a way for leagues and networks to make the most of a fanless environment.
