Jim Rutledge and Matt Hamilton roll into Hour 2 of today's show reacting to some more breaking news for Badgers football, as wide receivers Will Pauling and C.J. Williams both entered the transfer portal this afternoon. They continue discussing whether the transfer portal or NIL is a bigger issue in today's College Football landscape and is it possible at all to separate the two? Has NIL become a boogeyman creation of a system that just doesn't want to make its athletes employees. They also get into tonight's Bucks game against the Thunder in the NBA Cup title game, discussing which anti-perspirant Khris Middleton can use to help his flop sweat. Jim and Matt are joined by Badgers legend and new HBCU national champion Chris Orr! Chris talks about winning the national championship as the linebackers coach at Jackson State this past weekend, his journey from training in the UFL to taking the job at Jackson State and how his connection to former Badgers DC Dave Aranda led him there. Matt can't help but ask Chris for his thoughts (from afar) on last season's Badgers team and what their biggest issue was. They also discuss the breaking news that Will Pauling and C.J. Williams are leaving the program, and Chris answer the question about whether more restrictions are needed for NIL or the portal? Chris wraps up naming some of his biggest influences as coaches and his dream job of one day coaching with his brothers! Jim and Matt review Dan Campbell's HOT morning radio comments about how the Lions will bounce back after likely three of his key players sustained season-ending injuries, and they talk about where Dan Campbell probably gets his morning cup of joe. Throwing Stones includes a shot at the not-so-affordable dollar menu at McDonald's!

Jim Rutledge and Matt Hamilton react to the Packers pounding the Seahawks defense in a 30-13 ground-and-pound win on Sunday Night! Jim wasn't overly entertained by the game but Packers stan Matt couldn't be more thrilled with the outcome after crushing the Seahawks in Seattle for the first time since 2008! Jim's biggest takeaway is that Josh Jacobs is the clear MVP for Green Bay after he cleared a path for Jordan Love and the rest of the Packers' offense to completely roll out of the gates. Is there a strong case that Jacobs is the 1A for this offense while Jordan Love is 1B, is Love actually at his best when he throws under 30 times per game? Primetime also tries to trick Jim and Matt with this week's Green & Gold Blind Rankings, forcing them to blind rank the Packers' starting WRs based on their performance Sunday night. They also talk about Romeo Doubs' ridiculous TD catch in the 4th quarter, and is Jordan Love capable of elevating his game further if they're gonna beat Detroit, Philadelphia or Minnesota on the road in the playoffs?

Jim Rutledge and Matt Hamilton roll into Hour 2 of today's reaction show following the Packers' 30-13 win over the Seahawks on Sunday Night Football. They continue discussing Jim's take that Josh Jacobs is MVP of the Packers this season and that the Packers would be fighting to even make the postseason without him. They also discuss how Jacobs compares to his RB peers like Saquon Barkley and Derrick Henry who also got big free-agency deals this offseason, and producer Primetime tries to compare the Packers' offense to Dune Pt. 2. Jim, Matt and Primetime review their Don't Quote Me predictions from the end of last week, as they look at whose longshot prediction for the Packers-Seahawks game came closest to hitting the mark. During Throwing Stones, Matt presents an Irrelevant take he heard that Packers fans should be rooting for the Vikings to beat the Bears on Monday Night Football, and they discuss if Packers fans would rather play Detroit or Minnesota on the road in the playoffs. Jim and Matt wrap up the show with one more review of today's poll questions and whether this offense is at its best when Jordan Love throws less.

Jim Rutledge and Matt Hamilton take you into the weekend on a Phish Friday, and their joined in studio by old producer and Mr. Irrelevant, Alex Strouf. Jim, Matt, Strouf and producer Primetime have a reconnect with a roundtable discussion of how things have been since Strouf left for Milwaukee, and they take a temperature check on the state of Badgers football and the question mark at quarterback during this chaotic transfer portal window. The crew shifts its attention to the Packers vs Seahawks game on Sunday Night Football, as Matt and Strouf are coming into the game with very different feels about whether Green Bay will win. Jim also asks the emotional question for Packers fans, asking them if they have more scars related to the Seahawks or the 49ers? Strouf makes the case that the 49ers may have cut more scars, but the Seahawks have cut deeper... Strouf leaves, but Jim wants an education in social media and Primetime breaks down the function of Snapchat for Jim and Matt. Jim wraps up Hour 1 with the disappointed feeling that Matt, Strouf and Prime all missed a golden opportunity to dunk on the Bears over a report about the team's former head coach surfaced today!

Jim Rutledge and Matt Hamilton roll into a Half Hour of JM&M After Dark, as they're off the air early for the Badgers Volleyball game versus Texas A&M in the NCAA Tournament! Jim and Matt continue discussing which team has left Packers fans with deeper scars, the Seahawks or the 49ers, and Jim lets Packers fans know that they're lucky to have other teams inflict the emotional trauma on them rather than their own team (like the Bears). They play an abbreviated Don't Quote, calling their longshot predictions for the Packers vs Seahawks game on Sunday Night Football, and Jim ends the show wondering whether his shoes will end up being stolen by the cobbler that he paid to get them repaired!

Mark Tauscher joins Jim and Matt to talk about the Badgers finding their new offensive coordinator in Jeff Grimes from Kansas. Tausch discusses his sit-down interview with coach Grimes, his experience as an offensive line coach, and what surprised him about how Grimes connected with head coach Luke Fickell. Jim also asks Tausch how last season's three lopsided losses to the Badgers rivals could change their philosophy in recruiting and the transfer portal, and Matt asks Tausch if the Badgers QB play will improve and if next year's starter is on the roster after the news that Braedyn Locke entered the transfer portal today. Jim also asks Tausch for his thoughts on the breaking news that Bill Belichick is becoming the next head coach of North Carolina football and what NFL skills that the legendary coach could bring to the ever-evolving college game.

With Locke heading to the portal, they ask if the Badgers will get better QB play next year than they did last season, and they discuss if one of the QBs on the current roster will be starting next year (as well as making sure they can pronounce each QBs name properly). Jim and Matt react to some more breaking news that legendary NFL head coach Bill Belichick is officially heading back to school to take the head coach position at the University of North Carolina! How crazy is it that Belichick is going to be a college head coach and is it crazier than the gap in age between Bill and his 24-year girlfriend? They transition to their Packers conversation surrounding Jordan Love, as Jim and Matt discuss if the QB needs to get hot again like he did at the end of last season/postseason if the team is gonna make a deeper playoff run this year? Has Love's performance been up to the standard of a $55 million QB, and has he been definitively better than last season? Jim finally gets excited for once for Minute To Win It -- in honor of 100.5 ESPN becoming Madison's new home for Milwaukee Brewers Radio, he makes Matt list the 10 players from the Brewers' starting lineup for their final Wild Card game versus the Mets back in early October!
