On this episode, we discuss the recent decision by the U.S. Department of Education to rescind Title IX guidance on NIL payments. This significant move clears the way for universities like BYU to potentially share revenue with their athletes, a development that could have a profound impact on the future of the program.

We'll analyze the implications of this decision for BYU, exploring how it could impact recruiting, athlete compensation, and the overall competitive landscape.

We'll discuss the potential benefits of revenue sharing for BYU, including the ability to attract and retain top talent, enhance the student-athlete experience, and potentially increase competitive balance within the Big 12.

We'll also explore the potential challenges and considerations that BYU will need to address as they navigate this new era of NIL and revenue sharing.

Join us as we discuss this critical development and explore its potential impact on the future of BYU Athletics.

We discuss the recent NFL Combine invites, and express our disappointment with the lack of recognition for several standout BYU players.

Despite impressive seasons, players like Caleb Etienne, Connor Pay, and Jakob Robinson were surprisingly snubbed from the prestigious event. We'll analyze the potential reasons for these omissions and discuss the impact it may have on their NFL Draft stock.

While Tyler Batty deservedly earned his invite, we'll argue that the lack of recognition for other deserving BYU players is a significant oversight. We'll discuss the importance of the NFL Combine for player evaluation and how these snubs may negatively impact the perception of BYU talent at the next level.

Join us as we discuss this controversial topic and advocate for greater recognition of the talented players emerging from the BYU football program.

We'll analyze the factors that make BYU an attractive option for Lyons, including the program's recent success, the development of its offensive system, and the exciting potential of the Big 12.

We'll also discuss the challenges BYU faces in landing a highly coveted recruit like Lyons, including competition from other top programs and the ever-changing landscape of college football recruiting.
