Locked On SEC – Daily College Football & Basketball Podcast Locked On Podcast Network

On today's show, we catch up with Texas A&M head coach Mike Elko as he made an appearance at the Aggie Coach's Night, getting Aggie fans excited for the 2024 college football season. Elko gives this thoughts on his team coming out of spring, College Gameday coming to College Station in Week 1 for the Notre Dame game & more.

Also, we discuss the monumental settlement between the Houston vs NCAA that will ultimately lead to schools being able to share some of their revenue with student athletes. According to reports, the future revenue-sharing model could take effect as early as Fall 2025, with many SEC schools expected to be able to share upwards of $22 million in revenue with players. We discuss the ramifications and some of the pros and cons.

And we go Around The Conference, as Ole Miss OC Charlie Weis Jr becomes the highest-paid offensive coordinator in the SEC, former Rebels RB Kedrick Reescano picks a new school, a Florida d-lineman is in hot water, and projections have the SEC getting 11 baseball teams into the postseason - but will they get that many?

On today's show, we're joined by our buddy Jake Crain as we get his thoughts on the news of ESPN sublicensing some of their early round playoff games to TNT Sports, how different will that be from the ESPN broadcasts? Any chance we get Charles Barkley and Shaq on CFB Playoff games? And we get Jake's thoughts on the fallout of the Jaden Rashada lawsuit vs Billy Napier and more.

Also, we ask Jake Crain to give us an "Underrated" team currently in the SEC, and one that might be a tad "Overrated" so far this offseason. Who makes the lists? Texas? Texas A&M? Auburn? Alabama? We discuss!

On today's show, we're reacting to the news of Georgia QB Jaden Rashada filing a lawsuit against Florida head coach Billy Napier and several others, saying they defrauded him of millions pertaining to a $13.85 million NIL agreement that fell through. Rashada becomes the first college athlete to sue a coach and/or a booster over a dispute pertaining to an NIL deal. Not a great look with Napier already on the hot seat this year.

Also, ESPN's Mark Schlabach releases his college football Post-Spring Top 25 Rankings - we'll run through all the SEC teams he has ranked in his post spring rankings. He has eight SEC teams ranked in the top 18 of his rankings. Who can live up to the hype in 2024?

Ole Miss continues to add to their backfield this offseason, reportedly adding former Miami of Ohio RB Rashad Amos, along with former Georgia State RB Domonique Thomas. This is on top of them already adding this offseason New Mexico transfer RB Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Miami RB Henry Parrish Jr and LSU RB Logan Diggs, all to add with returning RB Ulysses Bentley. Can a few of these guys step up and replace the production of Quinshon Judkins?

Also, another Georgia football player arrested on a traffic related incident, this time in freshman receiver Sacovie White. Why can't Georgia players stop committing violations when it comes to driving? And some tragic news over at Auburn as RB Brian Battie was reportedly shot over the weekend, as we hope the best for him. In addition, Florida adds WR Elijhah Badger, while LSU loses a commitment from top WR Dakorien Moore.

And we recap the weekend of SEC Regionals in Softball, and we get ready for the bracket of the SEC Baseball Tournament in Hoover.

On today's show, we are joined by Brad Crawford of 24/7 Sports as we touch on a lot of the biggest storylines of the offseason for the SEC, including Oklahoma and Texas joining the conference, which coaches are most on the hot seat heading into 2024, Kalen DeBoer replacing Nick Saban, and dealing with the expanded playoff this year.

Also, we touch on Brad's article on 24/7 ranking all 16 SEC Quarterbacks Post-Spring, and kick around where he has many of those names ranked and which ones have gotten the most feedback. Also, did Hugh Freeze make a mistake sticking with Payton Thorne as his QB this season?

In addition, we go Around The Conference as Florida football adds CB Cormani McClain, Brian Kelly and LSU add a defensive lineman in Jay'viar Suggs from Grand Valley State, could LSU play a future game in Ireland?, Ryan McGee of ESPN lists five names from the SEC he thinks can compete for the Heisman this season, and we get a release date for the return of EA Sports' College Football 25 video game.

On today's show, we run through some of the big announcements from ESPN & ABC when it comes to marquee Week 1 games in the SEC and the game times. As the "SEC on ABC" debuts their new logo, we will get a triple-header between Georgia-Clemson, Florida-Miami, and Notre Dame-Texas A&M.

In addition, College Gameday announces they're headed to College Station for Week 1 for Mike Elko's Aggieland debut as the Aggies play host to the Fighting Irish. Also, a few more gametimes are announced for some other SEC games, we get you caught up on those. And is the SEC keeping an eye on Florida State and Clemson when it comes to future expansion still?

Also, we go Around The Conference, as Florida continues to recruit former five-star DB Cormani McClain as they host him on campus, but an interesting caveat that if he chooses the Gators, he may have to do it as a walk-on. And Kentucky adds a kicker in the portal, while LSU eyes Jay'viar Suggs. And why did the SEC give us Arkansas vs Kentucky in men's basketball only once next season? Calipari will return to Rupp Arena, but there will be no Wildcats visit to Bud Walton Arena.
