"The Commencement Speaker Advisory Committee was scapegoated as the problem. Not the case. Lot of questions to be answered as this snowballs nationally. 1- Will Cbus media join with DJ to ask those questions 2- Will @OhioStatePres and @CbusBenJohnson provide an explanation The Speaker Advisory Committee considered names like LeBron James Kamala Harris Jeni Britton the Ice Cream Tyrant and Jim Tressel. President Ted Carter overruled them and selected an obscure Bitcoin freak that brought national shame to Ohio State. https://t.co/JG4gQOkbpv https://t.co/Om9QGhDBze The Speaker Advisory Committee"

"I think it's a lot more pronounced on ESPN but women's basketball is on Gamestop like trajectory right now where in terms of studio programming it's leapfrogged a lot of sports joining NFL NBA and sometimes college football as sports in the regular rotation of topics. Women's Sports used to be an afterthought during Network Upfront presentations to advertisers.

"Of all the overplayed debate topics that have ever held significant airtime on ESPN/FS1/ETC I've never been more out on a topic than Bronny James. Michael Jordan's son Marcus had a better freshmen year than Bronny and we didn't have this contrived hype and circus"

"Good question. Agree ESPN will put best 1st round game in primetime. Chiefs vs. Texans is 1pm on NBC Steelers vs. Ravens is 4:30 Fox. What time would ESPN put the first two CFP game if last one is primetime Maybe a noon 4pm ET and 8pm ET schedule @bkoo @awfulannouncing I think theyll schedule the best game on Saturday night since there will be no competition from NFL. Also wonder if they stagger the start times with day NFL games. Maybe start the games at 11:30 and [--] and then [--] @bkoo @awfulannouncing I think theyll schedule the best game on Saturday night since there will be no competition"
