Locked On SEC – Daily College Football & Basketball Podcast

On today's show, we continue our 2024 SEC Player series with LSU wide receiver Kyle Parker as we discuss his decision to choose LSU last year as a four-star prospect as he redshirted behind future first round picks Brian Thomas Jr & Malik Nabers, and his expectations for himself for the upcoming season. 

Parker also discusses his decision to stick it out at LSU and not enter the transfer portal, while also competing with Kyren Lacy, Chris Hilton and others for playing time this season. We also get Parker's thoughts on LSU's new starting QB in Garrett Nussmeier, as well as the running back room, and the two new WR additions through the portal in Zavion Thomas and CJ Daniels. Parker also gives us his thoughts on LSU's improving defense, what he likes about Brian Kelly as a head coach, and his excitement for the upcoming NCAA college football video game. 

Also, we discuss the news that the Big 12 could sell naming rights to their conference with perhaps a company like Allstate that could purchase the rights - can you imagine the "Allstate 12" or the "Dr Pepper 12". And don't expect the SEC to be going that route any time soon. We also get you set for the start of the College World Series with four SEC teams getting underway this weekend.

The Dallas Mavericks needed game three just to show that they would not lay down in this series. The Boston Celtics, on the other hand, were playing with house money. And basketball said goodbye to Jerry West.

On today's show - ESPN has released the approximate start times for the remainder of the 2024 SEC football season, with the first season of all SEC games exclusively on ABC and ESPN channels. All SEC games have been designated either morning kickoffs, afternoon, night, or "Flex" which will be decided between afternoon or night. 

Who got the best draw for game times and who drew the short end of the stick? Well Ole Miss coming off an 11-win season gets FOUR early morning games next season - not exactly a reward for a preseason Top 10 team. And LSU lucks out with just one early game, on the road - could the Tigers get all night games in Death Valley this season? 

Also, we hit on some SEC recruiting news as Alabama adds OL Mal Waldrep and OL Michael Carroll, Mizzou adds safety Dyllon Williams, Texas picks up CB Caleb Chester, and Auburn scoops up athlete Bruce Deas. 

And we are locked in with four SEC teams headed to Omaha for the College World Series, with the schedule set for Florida, Texas A&M, Kentucky and Tennessee. Also, the Vols lose a pitcher to Tommy John, South Carolina makes it official hiring Paul Mainieri, and a few portal moves in SEC baseball.

As we count down the days to the start of the 2024 SEC football season, some teams lost a ton to the Transfer Portal, while others added a ton. But who added better talent than they lost? Who lost more than they brought in? 24/7 Sports lists the SEC's biggest winners and losers of the portal using the average rating of all of the players, and they found that Texas, Mizzou & Tennessee were among the top WINNERS of the portal, while schools like Alabama were LOSERS of the portal. 

Also, it's been a busy time for recruiting when it comes to the 2025 class, and we catch you up on the latest commitments as Alabama adds 4-star CB Chuck McDonald, while Georgia adds 4-star DL Christian Garrett. And we give you the latest buzz regarding several other high profile recruits and the SEC schools targeting them. 

And it was a busy weekend of Super Regional action around the SEC. Florida and Tennessee were the first SEC schools to punch their tickets to Omaha, with Texas A&M, Kentucky, Florida all making runs as well.

On today's show, we run through the news that OIe Miss transfer RB commit Jacory Croskey-Merritt has flipped his commitment from the Rebels back to Arizona. The former New Mexico running back was expected to join a group that could go RB-by-committee, after losing Quinshon Judkins to the portal this offseason. Instead, the Rebels will need to lean on returnee Ulysses Bentley and transfers Henry Parrish from Miami, Rashas Amos from Miami of Ohio, and Clemson RB Domonique Thomas. Former LSU RB Logan Diggs underwent offseason surgery and is expected to out a while. 

Also, we run through the dates and times released by ESPN for the 12-Team College Football Playoff in 2024-25. Georgia picks up a big time linebacker commit, while Auburn adds a cornerback recruit. 

And we get the latest update on Auburn RB Brian Battie, and could Bruce Pearl leave Auburn for UConn if Dan Hurley does indeed leave for the Los Angeles Lakers?

ESPN has released its annual FPI (Football Power Index) Ratings for the 2024 season - we run through the SEC teams and where they rank, with 15 of 16 SEC teams rating in their Top 50, and 11 SEC teams in the Top 20 of the FPI. Some of the ESPN writers discuss which teams they think are undervalued and overvalued, with a few teams that could surprise by the end of the season. 

Also, ESPN's David Hale ranked all 134 FBS QB Situations into Tiers, and we list the SEC QBs and where they rank, with a group headlined by Alabama's Jalen Milroe, Georgia's Carson Beck and Texas' Quinn Ewers in Tier 1.
