We couldn't skip over Big Kat Bryant's timely back injury in the LSU VS Auburn game. For the first time news broke while we were recording and we discussed the NCAA unanimously passing a change to allow student-athletes to be paid for their likeness. College GameDay is almost certainly going to be present for #1 LSU vs. #2 Alabama next weekend, we make the argument for why they should go to Minnesota instead. It wouldn't be the DBP without discussing the MBA flag football team developing into a powerhouse.

To start the Summer Sessions we sat down with Greg Plater, a former D1 athlete from Oakland and Salem. We discussed his basketball journey from the boys and girls club to winning titles overseas. Greg talks about how he has used basketball to create connections off the court as he expands into a new career in tech. He breakdowns what he wants to be known for and what makes him the intellectual athlete merging the boundaries of the intellectual, the artist and the athlete.
