LSU fans are up in arms over the addition of sponsored patches on Tigers uniforms — but is the outrage justified? In this episode, we dive deep into the controversy, explaining why this move is not only smart, but necessary in today’s college athletics landscape.

We break down the new NCAA revenue-sharing model and what it means for programs like LSU that have been operating at a budget deficit. With the pressure to stay competitive in the NIL era, adding new revenue streams is critical — and that includes sponsorships on uniforms.

Plus, we explain why baseball could be the most impacted sport when it comes to the long-term financial model and why the jersey patch decision may actually help protect LSU’s baseball dominance.

We also shine the spotlight on superstar freshman Derek Curiel, who was named National Freshman of the Year. Where does he rank among the best freshman seasons in LSU baseball history? We give our answer.

All that and more on today’s show.
