  Chris Andrey on your radio, Landry Football dot Com and of course Landry Football
• 0:04
  on ex Chris Happy Monday. What's going on? Oh this same same old,
• 0:10
  same on Chris. I tell you what, Let's start with college and
• 0:12
  then we'll go to the NFL. We'll get into shared golf contract that broke
• 0:15
  about twenty minutes ago. Ian Rapaport talking about this new contract that's out two
• 0:19
  hundred and twelve million, but first for golf college. Bret McMurphy, you
• 0:24
  may not have had a chance to see this just put out from UNC.
• 0:29
  North Carolina trustee David Bollock is advocating for North Carolina to join a higher revenue
• 0:35
  league. Says, quote, that's what we need to do. We need
• 0:38
  to do everything we can to get there. Or the alternative is the ACC
• 0:42
  is going to have to reconstruct itself. I think all options are on the
• 0:45
  table. This is another team, Chris in the ACC that's saying this ain't
• 0:50
  good enough. Yeah, and look, I think that if you pulled all
• 0:56
  of them, you know, they would all like to be in that situation
• 1:00
  in North Carolina. Is they understand that they're a coveted school, they may
• 1:04
  be as coveted as anybody you know, I'm maybe for say Florida State Clemson.
• 1:11
  They have a lot of prestige. And I'm not just talking about basketball.
• 1:15
  I'm just talking about state school a lot going for it, and they
• 1:19
  they get it, they understand everybody does that. The revenue difference between what
• 1:25
  you're getting in the SEC of the Big Ten versus the ACC is just it's
• 1:30
  not going to compute. It's not going to allow you to be as competitive
• 1:34
  in today's world. So if you if you're North Carolina, that's what you're
• 1:38
  thinking. If you're Florida State, that's what you're thinking. If you're Clemson,
• 1:42
  that's what you're thinking. If you're waiting for us, you're probably worried
• 1:46
  because if they leave, what's you know, our conference is going to be
• 1:49
  less than what we are because they know that they're not one of the big
• 1:53
  boys. But this has been this has been coming, it's going to continue
• 1:57
  to come, and I think you're going to see all the schools that have
• 2:00
  any sort of cachet try to see if they can't find something better, and
• 2:07
  maybe ones that are trying to figure out where they stand in the pecking horse.
• 2:12
  I mean, you better believe Virginia Virginia Tech are thinking, Okay,
• 2:15
  let's what could we do. I mean, they obviously think highly of themselves,
• 2:21
  but you know, how coveted are we, how how interested others might
• 2:27
  be. What can we do to make this better? All of those things.
• 2:30
  That's that's what's going on, you know, day in and day out
• 2:34
  right now. And if you're not in one of the big boy leagues,
