John Granato and Raheel Ramzanali kick off the first hour of the show with the news of J.J. Watt’s back surgery. Raheel wants to hear what happened from J.J., and both of the guys feel that Watt will miss the first two games of the season. Who is going to step up to take his place? John thinks that it’s time for the No. 1 overall pick to show he’s worth it and have Jadeveon Clowney be the force that the defense needs. John and Raheel turn to the phones and speculate what could’ve happened to J.J. Watt’s back and create some #JJTheories. UT supports the addition of UH to the Big 12, but it may just be so that the university will approve UT’s expansion into Houston. Julia Morales of Root Sports joins the show to talk Astros after being on the road. John is upset by the decision to bring up Preston Tucker instead of Alex Bregman to fill the spot of A.J. Reed. Julia speculates that a large part of the decision was to get another left-handed bat in the lineup. But what else needs to be fixed with the Astros? #GRD #JJWatt #JJTheories #UHinB12 #JuliaMorales #Astros
