Lots to unpack on our newest show from the Lane Kiffin "telethon-like" coverage of whether he would stay or go from Ole Miss, huge football games on Thanksgiving in the NFL and for Ohio St. and Michigan for Fox Sports. Plus, we have a WILD, four day travel weekend for a broadcast host/producer to go over, too!
It's all with T.J. Rives and guests on the "LWOS Media Podcast!"
First, T.J. talks the Thanksgiving games and numbers and the speculation that continues about the size of the TV audiences for those. And, then the massive Buckeyes vs. Wolverines grudge match in Ann Arbor, MI for Fox Sports.
Also, he has comments on the Erin Andrews comments/controversy about travel and missing out on things with your family and kids, etc.
Then, there's plenty of talk on Lane Kiffin leaving Ole Miss (in the lurch) to take the LSU job with a great writer/columnist for the Sporting News in Mike Decourcy. The guys discuss how Kiffin didn't handle things well and also, the seemingly compromised ESPN broadcasters covering the story, as their employer ESPN paying the SEC billions of dollars. And, the announcers having the same agency represent them, as the SEC powerful coaches. DeCourcy does not hold back on all.
Then, it's an all time travel weekend for massive NFL and College Footall for Brian Dancel of Elite Media Network and Compass Media Network and the coverage on the radio for four games in four days. It's amazing what he did on multiple planes, cars and hotels to make it happen.
