Jason Fitz with Yahoo Sports hanging out with the great Kirk Herbstreit joining us on behalf of Purina Pro Plan.
Start with what you actually think is realistic for what college football will look like in 5 years.
I'm just taking it day by day like you are to imagine, hopefully in 5 years, we will have some, some concrete, this is who college football is decisions.
And I feel like we've been drinking out of a fire hose for the last 3 or 4 years.
And I don't see that going away for the next few years anyway.
I think there's so many layers to it.
There's the postseason part, you know, we're at 12, the contract's up.
Are we going to 14, are we going to 16?
Is it a 4-4-2-2-1-1?
Is it a 5 and 11?
Like what, what are we going to?
And then the obvious is the transfer portal, NIL Revshare.
I would love to see us somehow get to a point where we would have a collective bargaining agreement with somebody that's representing the players.
And, you know, the conference commissioners or, or college football.
And I would love to see us be able to agree on a lot of those issues, NIL portal, and all those things that drive all of us crazy.
And then have an agreement, and then you don't have to worry about antitrust laws.
My hope is we have some kind of CBA and some kind of understanding the players are essentially employees.
And that doesn't mean school's not still important for some of these guys, doesn't mean you still shouldn't go get a degree.
It just means we need to find a way to knock down the threat of litigation.
You are sitting next to Purina Pro Plan.
Talk to me about it, brother.
What do you love about this?
I'm very big into the ingredients that are in it.
That they put in their dog food.
The more real and the more organic, the better, as far as I'm concerned.
That's why with this, what we've done, you know, over the last, oh, I don't know, 2 or 3 months, having a chance to do this fueled by docuseries with George Kittle.
We had Sophia Wilson, Rose Lavelle, elite athletes in their own field.
We had a chance to visit with them and, you know, they train hard, but they also fuel their body with the right food.
No different than humans, anybody out there that tries to stay in good shape.
Well, why shouldn't we be doing that for our dogs?
And no matter what their age, no matter, no matter what their activity level or their breed, and it's so important to be able to give our dogs, it's our responsibility to give our dogs the right food and the right lifestyle.

New Raiders coach Pete Carroll confident they are 'gonna win a bunch' this season after recent struggles
Pete Carroll isn't holding back on how great he thinks the Raiders are going to be this fall. The longtime coach is now leading the way in Las Vegas, and he's extremely confident that he'll turn the franchise around, and quickly. 'We gotta win a ton. We've gotta win a bunch of games … I've been winning 10 games a year for 20 years or something now,' Carroll said on Tuesday. 'What are my expectations? We're gonna win bunch, and I don't care who hears that. It doesn't matter to me.' Now, it's easy to want to ignore a coach speaking this way at the start of training camp. Honestly, it'd be way more surprising if a coach wasn't exuding confidence at this point of the season. Advertisement [Join or create a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for the 2025 NFL season] But Carroll is taking over a franchise that has been in, well, turmoil for years now. After 14 seasons and a Super Bowl win with the Seattle Seahawks, Carroll split with the franchise after the 2023 campaign. He was then hired to replace Antonio Pierce in Las Vegas in January, which makes him the team's fifth head coach over the last five seasons. They also parted with general manager Tom Telesco after just one season, too. The Raiders went just 4-13 last season and finished last in their division. They've made the playoffs just once over the last eight years, and they haven't won a postseason game since their run to the Super Bowl during the 2002 campaign. So the Raiders opted to bring in Carroll to try and right the ship. Based on his track record — he had a stretch where the Seahawks won double-digit games eight times over nine seasons, and he missed the playoffs just four times in Seattle — it's a decent strategy. Carroll brought in Chip Kelly to be his offensive coordinator, too. The pair will start to build an offense around quarterback Geno Smith and rookie running back Ashton Jeanty, among others. The Raiders struck deals with veteran safety Jamal Adams and cornerback J.T. Woods on Tuesday afternoon, too, which should only bolster their defense. Advertisement The Raiders have plenty of work to do to legitimately turn things around. But, at least at the start of camp, there's reason to believe they are on the right path. And Carroll has no doubt that he'll get his new group there.

49ers receiver Jauan Jennings reports to training camp seeking a new contract
SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — Jauan Jennings reported to training camp for the San Francisco 49ers as he seeks a new contract and the team expects him to be on the field when practice begins on Wednesday. General manager John Lynch said Tuesday that Jennings passed a physical when he reported for camp this week. Advertisement 'I anticipate him being out there,' Lynch said. 'You guys know our feelings on JJ. He embodies what we think a Niner is all about. He plays the right way and we love him. We're not going to get into the contract talks and all that. That takes care of itself. We love him and he's here.' Coach Kyle Shanahan said Jennings hasn't formally requested a trade. Jennings is entering the final season of a two-year, $15.4 million contract and is seeking a long-term extension before the season. Shanahan said he would like to be able to reach an extension with both Jennings and right tackle Colton McKivitz before the season. 'The way they feel about us is the same way we feel about them,' Shanahan said. 'That's the easy part. The hard part is the business side.' Advertisement The Niners were hoping to avoid the contract distractions this summer after dealing with disputes with Nick Bosa, Brandon Aiyuk and Trent Williams the past two seasons that kept all of them out of training camp practices. They reached extensions early in the offseason with stars Brock Purdy, Fred Warner and George Kittle, but now have a potential issue with Jennings. The 2020 seventh-round pick has emerged as one of Purdy's most trusted options at wide receiver after having 77 catches for 975 yards and six TDs last season. With Deebo Samuel having been traded to Washington in March and Aiyuk working back from a knee injury, Jennings has a big role this season. 'It's extremely important obviously,' Purdy said about having Jennings at practice. 'I love JJ and what he brings to our team. Obviously we've had so much success together and anytime you see something like this going on, as a player let's figure out something so we can get back on the field.' Advertisement Injury updates The Niners have several players starting camp in injury lists with the only expected long-term absences coming from players dealing with ACL injuries: Aiyuk, safety Malik Mustapha, linebacker Curtis Robinson and rookie quarterback Kurtis Rourke. Lynch said those players will likely start the season on injured lists but is hopeful they can return some time during the first half of the season. Receiver Ricky Pearsall, defensive end Yetur Gross-Matos and offensive lineman Andre Dillard all will start camp on the physically unable to perform list but are expected back on the field soon. Advertisement Ben Bartch, who is in the mix to start at left guard, will also miss at least the first three days of camp on the non-football injury list after injuring his quadriceps working out on his own. Running back Christian McCaffrey and Williams are both 'here and healthy,' Shanahan said, but their work loads will be managed through camp after dealing with injuries last season. Roster move With questions at receiver, the Niners signed Equanimeous St. Brown to add depth at the position following a tryout on Monday that featured six receivers. St. Brown, the brother of Detroit star Amon-Ra St. Brown, has 63 catches for 928 yards in 62 career games for Green Bay, Chicago and New Orleans. ___ AP NFL:
