8-20: NCAA ridiculousness, Matt Calkins resigns, we hear from Grey Zabel and Trevon Diggs

from The Gregg Bell Show w/ Christopher Kidd

A judge's court order in Louisiana has allowed players who are currently in the NFL to return to college football via the transfer portal. Gregg is flabbergasted by this and frankly, quite fired up about it. Are we just voting for laundry and colors of jerseys now? The college presidents are awful at managing this. Matt Calkins resigns from the Seattle Times and the decision to do it on his own. Gregg reads through his post explaining why, which includes some columns of his getting turfed - it's time for a change. Trevon Diggs is with the Seahawks, so what does that say about the Terrion Arnold situation? Gregg also dives into the reasons Diggs chose Seattle among multiple suitors. Grey Zabel, Seahawks Guard told the media what a joint practice means to a team and how they are able to bond throughout a trip like this. He also takes us behind the 'rookie talent show' and exactly what happens there. Finally, he tells us what he's learned this preseason as he enters year 2. Trevon Diggs is already with the Seahawks and Gregg breaks down what that says about the Seahawks' cornerback position, especially everything that surrounded Terrion Arnold this week. Will we see more of a three-linebacker situation this season? We check in on your talkbacks and texts - and then talk to Ian!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
