that can make your product better you do it. the students ARE the product. not the old washed up talk show hosts. there’s a thousand college football talk shows and a ton of gameday spin-offs. gameday is what it is because of the students. and having pat simultaneously gives back to the students who are spending their time there.
yeah it would lose a little bit of the older guys but who cares? the older guys only watch cause they loved their time in college and got attached. and if the students are having a great time, they’ll become those older guys that are attached and giving them money.
clearly pat does a good job cause his youtube podcast is on ESPN. he brings eyeballs. and he brings energy that makes the show sooo much better and actually worth going to.
