  • Rajeev's Corner: College Football Governance War - CSC Participation Agreement & Playoff Format Chaos
    Jan 15 2026

    On tonight’s Rajeev’s Corner, I’m digging into the College Sports Commission Participation Agreement — why it’s being called a power grab, why some states are pushing back, and what it could mean for schools, conferences and the future of college sports enforcement.


    Then we get into LATEST NEWS on the CFP expansion battle: the Big Ten’s audacious 24-team dream, the SEC’s 16-team preference, and why this disagreement could keep the College Football Playoff format stuck at 12 teams unless leaders find common ground by January 23rd

    Real analysis. Real implications. Real power plays shaping college athletics.


    📌 Keywords: College Sports Commission, Participation Agreement fight, CFP playoff debate, Big Ten SEC rift, state AG opposition, NIL enforcement, college football governance

  • Badgers Shock No.2 Michigan + Transfer Portal Breakdown | Wisconsin Football New Additions & Needs
    Jan 11 2026

    Wisconsin Badgers fans, we’re breaking it all down after a massive road win for Wisconsin basketball at Michigan and a busy stretch for Wisconsin football in the transfer portal. The Badgers stunned No. 2 Michigan in Ann Arbor with one of the biggest wins of the season — what does this mean for Greg Gard’s team, Big Ten standings, and the trajectory of Wisconsin basketball moving forward?


    On the football side, we dive deep into Wisconsin football transfer portal news, going position by position to analyze who the Badgers have added, how each transfer fits Luke Fickell’s vision, and where Wisconsin still needs help before next season. From the quarterback room and offensive skill positions to the offensive line, defensive front, linebackers, and secondary — we cover every position group, key storylines, fan reaction, and remaining roster questions.


    Is Wisconsin football doing enough in the transfer portal to compete in the Big Ten? Which additions matter most? And which positions still need upgrades before fall camp? Plus, how does the momentum from a huge basketball win at Michigan impact the overall perception of Wisconsin athletics right now?

  • Rajeev’s Corner: The Portal Momentum Wisconsin Needed
    Jan 8 2026

    In this episode of Rajeev’s Corner, I talk through how the Badgers have handled the portal so far, what “showing the money” actually looks like, and why additions like Joseph stand out.

    I also zoom out to compare Wisconsin’s approach to other major programs, ask whether this truly reflects top-third investment, and look ahead to what comes next. Plus, I dive into the Demond Williams situation — and why parallels to Xavier Lucas keep reinforcing my belief that college sports desperately need guardrails.
