Is This Trinity Rodman’s Last NWSL Match? | Puck Drops on Third PWHL Season

Since the College Football Playoff began in 2015, data from the Knight-Newhouse College Athletics Database says severance pay for fired football coaches has nearly quadrupled and is expected to exceed $169 million for just 10 head football coaches this year. Amy Privette Perko, the CEO of the Knight Commission on Intercollegiate Athletics, joins to explain whether football buyout money is impacting funding for other athletic departments like women's and collegiate Olympic sports. Meanwhile, the puck drops on the third PWHL season Friday, with two new expansion teams in Seattle and Vancouver joining this season ahead of potential expansion from 8 to 12 teams by 2026–27. Jayna Hefford, PWHL’s EVP of hockey operations, previews the season and discusses whether any of the seven new cities in the league’s Takeover Tour this year might be considered for future expansion franchises. And after meeting in an epic semifinal last year, Gotham FC and the Washington Spirit meet Saturday in San Jose for the NWSL championship in what could be Trinity Rodman’s last game with the Spirit before she hits the free-agent market. FOS women's sports reporter Annie Costabile joins Baker Machado to preview the big game. There are risks when investing in ETFs, including possible loss of money.
