Today's topics include:

* Thoughts on Notre Dame's new 30-year-old walk-on kicker Eric Goins, who is fresh out of the Army after kicking for The Citadel nearly a decade ago.

* After Notre Dame’s 12-point loss to Miami last night head coach Micah Shrewsberry only played 6 players in the second half. He was asked if he gave any thought to putting some of the other guys back in the game and his response was “zero thought.” This response is BLANK to you.

* Thoughts on the Notre Dame - UConn women's basketball rivalry, which is renewed this weekend in Storrs. 

* Gus Johnson will be calling the Notre Dame and UConn game on Fox. When’s the last time you heard Gus Johnson call a women’s basketball game? Does it heighten the game for you? Are you more likely to listen to Gus or the great Sean Stires on the call?

* With three jobs still open in the NFL on a scale of 1 to 10 what are the chances that Bill Belichick will be unemployed for the 2024 season?

* There is a report that former LSU receiver Kayshon Boutte bet on LSU games while playing. With all the legal gambling going on, do you buy or sell players betting on their teams to win?

* Multiple choice: The Notre Dame junior day pictures are surfacing from the recruits. Which uniform pairing do you like the best? A. White on white B. Green with white pants C. Traditional

* Both Joe Mauer and Todd Helton were elected to the baseball Hall of Fame this week. Both of them were also multi-sport athletes with Mauer winning the national Gatorade player of the year in 2001 in football and Helton starting over Peyton Manning at QB while at Tennessee. Do you Buy or Sell that they made the right decision to go pro in baseball?

* Fill-in the blank: It's BLANK that Colorado has self-reported eleven violations to the NCAA.

* Is it Fair or Foul that Luka Doncic had a Suns fan removed from a game for yelling at him that he was slow and needed to get on a treadmill.

* The NFL Conference Championships are this weekend, Chiefs vs Ravens and Lions vs 49ers. Is there one that’s more compelling than the other? Who wins?
