Coach Tom Wells, the winningest coach in NY State History with over 850 combined wins during his career, joins Steve Cully. We talk about NFL training camps, Cam Ward with Tennessee, and how he is struggling to get the offense rolling. Jaxston Dart, from the Giants, is looking good, but we hope he does not play a snap. Mr. Wells gives his take on the Power 4 conferences gaining ultimate power. In an unprecedented ruling, decisions on legislation do not have to be agreed upon by all parties, giving the SEC and Big 10 the power to pave the way for the future, particularly in upcoming expanded playoff talks.

Rebel Republic returns with Coach Schuman and me (Steve Cully), while Frank Cristiano is in Italy. We discuss AG Pam Bondi and the DOJ's new investigation into the 2016 election, where Russian collusion allegations, tied to Trump’s friendly ties with Putin, clouded Clinton’s loss. The probe’s outcome remains to be seen. We also cover NYC mayoral candidate Mamdani, who leads polls with Senator Warren’s endorsement, though his bold ideas raise questions about feasibility. Lastly, we’re surprised by Trump’s executive order on college athletics, targeting NIL deals to ensure payments are legitimate—like $50K for commercials—but not boosters paying millions without endorsements. Aimed at protecting sports programs, especially women’s, the order’s enforcement is tricky, and determining a player’s “worth” remains subjective.
