Listen Later

It's a Monday and Mid-June, over two months before actual football games start, and you're starving for new deep-diving local college and prep football content.

We have the freshest insight from the ultimate "insider" ready for you!

Enjoy a smorgasbord of meaty information and educated opinions on the hottest topics from Kurtiss Riggs, our Happy Hour with John Gaskins lead football analyst, the Sanford Sports Academy football director, veteran high school and college TV game commentator, and 11-time league champion former head coach of the Sioux Falls Storm.

Topics covered:

  • What chances will SDSU fans see the top two local true freshmen — receiver Landon Dulaney (Brandon Valley) and offensive lineman Lincoln Semchenko (SF Christian) — on the field and making plays right away?
  • For SDSU and USD, what are the advantages and disadvantages of "opting in" to sharing revenue with athletes (and therefore having NIL money regulated) for the first time, a result of the recently-approved NCAA-House Settlement? 
  • What are some things about NIL most people don't know — the effects it has already had on coaches and locker rooms at all levels, where most of the NIL money at schools like SDSU and USD are going, and how have some local players left a lot of money on the table?
  • Who are the top three 2026 prospects in this region right now? We're talking Power Four offers and commitments and possible different makers at the highest level of college football.
  • What would it take for the Sioux Falls Storm to return to the field in 2026, and what do we make of last week's resignation of head coach and long-time Storm staple Andre Fields?
