The Beat of Sports

The Orlando Magic are playing their best basketball of the season right now, so Marc and Scott take the opportunity to run through some of the great one-year wonders for the franchise.

LSU accidentally overpaid Tigers football coach Brian Kelly by $1 million during the first year of a 10-year, $100 million contract but as Marc points out this story is brining out a very serious problem when it comes to money at the school.

It has been the biggest college athletic story and every day it keeps gettin crazier, David Berri joins the show to talk about how the NIL money market has evolved.

It was the biggest college football story over the past few weeks that finally got its resolution, but Matt Hayes joins the show to talk about how the Jaden Rashada tale took off.

The Orlando Magic got another player back from the injured list with Jonathan Isaac returning and in doing so they took down the Boston Celtics. So why do the Magic have Bostons number this year, and what are the realistic expectations for this team?

Today is the day that the latest round of inductees in the Baseball Of Fame is announced and Marc takes the opportunity to bring up how flawed and comical the whole process has become.

Chris Vinel joins the show to talk about the latest on what is happening with Bethune Cookman and Ed Reed.

The Magic have turned the corner the last few weeks and now looked primed to make a run into the play-in game. Marc talks about the return of Jonathan Isaac, the growth of Franz Wagner and why this roster is just about complete.

Now Jonathan Isaac is set to return to play for a Magic team that is showing signs of what it can be with developing stars in Franz Wager and Paolo Banchero. There is little precedent to show Isaac can get to an elite level. If he becomes a role player he may help Orlando in its race to make the NBA's play-in round of the playoffs. But there is also the scenario where the Magic get to see what they have in Isaac and whether he can be part of their future.

We all saw the videos on social media or Shannon Sharpe getting into it with several Memphis Grizzlies players, well Marc and Scott think the entire situation was just a stunt for television ratings for Undisputed.
