The Bulluminati Podcast dives into some unusual and fun #content by asking the question on everyone’s mind in these times - what happens if real life was like a video game?* More importantly the NFL Street franchise. If you missed Seth Varnadore’s piece on NCAA Street: Building the Ultimate Team, you should probably take a look before strapping in those ear buds and listening to this supplement; because we’re diving into three USF seasons to see what the rosters could look like if the winner of each game got to steal a player from the loser. For this exercise, Nate, Seth, Steeg, Vito, and Senator Giggity took three USF seasons - 2007, 2016, and 2017 - and chose the players that USF would choose in wins, and who opponents would choose in losses. Below you can see the full roster of TDS picks - some highly debated!0:00: 200742:24: 20161:02:07: 2017

We ask Collin our questions as we are hearing this for the first time and also take your #AskTDS questions on this matter and elaborate on what we believe the future of the athletics department will be.Since it’s been a couple weeks, we also dive into the most recent topics around USF Athletics like the Bulls opening game loss in the DeLand Regional to Oklahoma State, the non-bid to host, the state of the department as a whole, and Jamie goes on a Women’s Basketball conference scheduling rant and we’re here for this! We also go off the rails a bit and discuss the great idea that is Conference USA basketball scheduling, Scottish Soccer Scheduling and the American Athletic Conference moving their offices to beautiful Dallas, TX. #RIPClamBakeTo conclude, Nate, Jamie and Collin honor the greatest SID in program history, Mike Radomski, discussing their favorite stories and the announcement of USF Athletics’ Michael J. Radomski Memorial Scholarship. His kindness and passion for USF Athletics is missed everyday and this scholarship is a great way to commemorate him and help others like him.

The #POW6R Edition

Mon, 17 Jul 2017 00:00:00 GMT

LIVE FROM NEWPORT, RI: Full of shellfish and stories, we're joined by Richard Johnson of SB Nation, Hali Oughton of the American Conference, and Josh Appel of Sports USA Media (that feels so weird to type) to wrap AAC Media Days. We discuss the conference's path forward, the glory that is The Clambake (it really is that amazing), and all our favorite things from AAC Media Days 2017.We did this with one microphone that Richard borrowed, so make sure you turn it all the way up as the sound quality isn't fantastic. Neither was I of course, but Richard & Hali & Josh are way better at this than I am. Enjoy!
