May and June used to mark the "dead" part of the calendar in college athletics offices and facilities.

But while none of the teams are competing, there has never been a busier time between seasons, nor the kind of deluge of daily news springing from both the transfer portal and high school recruiting trails.

SDSU and USD are no exception, with their football and both of their basketball programs experiencing exhaustive roster reflux. So, how can we sift through the day-to-day events and filter them into what's most relevant right now?

Enter Jay Elsen, the TV voice of both the Coyotes and Jackrabbits for Midco Sports, who joins Happy Host John Gaskins to discuss the most relevant happenings and look at the bigger picture.

How well did Travis Johansen and staff handle the pillaging of several All-American players in the spring window? Ditto for Carrie Eighmey in reconstructing her entire roster.

Does SDSU deserve to be ranked ahead of USD in the preseason top 25 FCS poll, as HERO Sports tabbed the Jacks No. 3 and the Yotes No. 4? 

Why does SDSU consistently win the Summit League's all-sports competition, and why do the Yotes almost always have a strong showing?

Time to take a hike and look at the trees of mid-major transfer madness, then hop on a plane to oversee the entire forest.
