The Ricky Cobb Show

Fernando Mendoza proves why he was the #1 overall pick after leading Indiana to an undefeated season. His play on the field speaks for itself, but his mentality is what makes him stand out amongst the rest.

Ricky Cobb cuts through the noise on the proposed NCAA Tournament expansion to 76 teams — and his take is as real as it gets. While the NCAA is selling this as more opportunity and more “madness,” Cobb makes the case that this move is really about one thing: money. Ricky breaks down how expanding the field could water down the tournament, impact the regular season, and ultimately shift the focus away from what made March Madness special in the first place. Is this about giving more teams a shot, or just increasing TV revenue and control?

The Las Vegas Raiders made history by selecting Heisman winner Fernando Mendoza with the #1 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. But there’s one problem: he’s way too nice! Known for his "polite dork" energy, Mendoza is the literal opposite of the gritty, outlaw "Bad Boy" image the Raiders have cultivated for decades. Even Ricky Cobb (Super 70s Sports) had some fun at Fernando’s expense, noting that the Raiders just drafted a guy who probably asks for permission before throwing a touchdown. Ricky breaks down the hilarious culture clash, Mendoza's incredible 16-0 championship run at Indiana, and why his "Good Guy" leadership might be exactly what Raider Nation needs to finally win again.

It just keeps getting worse for Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel. Newly surfaced photos from 2020 appear to show Vrabel and NFL insider Dianna Russini in a compromising moment at a New York City bar — and that’s only the beginning. More images from 2024 reportedly place the two together again at a casino shortly after Vrabel’s firing in Tennessee. Now, Vrabel is stepping away from the Patriots indefinitely to seek counseling, and he’s expected to miss a key portion of the NFL Draft. The timing couldn’t be worse, and the internet is digging up everything — including a 2021 tweet from Russini that has suddenly gone viral. Is this a full-blown scandal, or are we watching a media-driven pile-on? What’s real, what’s spin, and how does this impact the Patriots moving forward? We break down the timeline, the photos, the reaction online, and what this means for Vrabel, Russini, and the NFL.

The NFL Draft has officially entered the AI era 🤖🏈 Front offices across the league are leaning into artificial intelligence to gain an edge, with 49ers GM John Lynch putting it plainly this week: “If you aren’t using it, you’re already behind.” That raises a big question — what exactly are teams like the Dallas Cowboys doing with AI… and is Jerry Jones using enough of it? That’s where Ricky steps in. Just when the line between real life and AI starts to blur, things take a wild turn as former President Bill Clinton shows up at a Cowboys pre-draft press conference. What follows? Pure chaos. Two Arkansas legends. One draft. And a hilarious, spot-on impersonation from Cobb that brings it all together.

More human. More like Phil Mickelson. You can feel the pressure with Rory in those Masters moments—the weight of the career Grand Slam, the expectations, the tension.
