Show Notes

We often describe the Aaron Torres Sports Podcast as "jam-packed." That's an understatement this week. Aaron discusses N'Faly Dante's decision, Michael Avenatti's latest claims and is joined by Fox Sports' Tim Brando to preview the upcoming college football season. Highlights:

Thoughts on Michael Avenetti: Aaron opens the show by discussing the latest story surrounding Michael Avenetti and Nike's alleged role in paying high school basketball players. Aaron explains why this story isn't as big as it's made out to be, and why it likely will have zero impact on schools mentioned by Avenetti. Also, why the headline that all the top high school players were getting paid to play EYBL is a bit misleading.

Reaction to N'Faly Dante's Decision: N'Faly Dante will be an Oregon Duck. Aaron explains why it could take time for Dante to adjust to college basketball, and why he has never been sold that Dante will have an immediate impact in the sport. He also discusses what the commitment means for Oregon and how it may help Kentucky in the long run.

Fox Sports' Tim Brando Previews the 2019 College Football Season: Brando returns to the show to talk pigskin. Is anyone even close to Bama and Clemson, and how much trouble is the sport in if the two teams again play for the title? Brando also talks about teams that are quietly emerging and other storylines heading into the season. Also, has the College Football Playoff actually hurt the sport as a whole?
