In this special edition of The Ride, originally recorded live on A-Train Sports Talk via Riverside, Anthony Smith dives into one of the biggest controversies in college football and one of the biggest storylines in the NBA Finals.
First, Anthony examines the fallout surrounding Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby after a court ruling allowed him to play despite NCAA gambling-related sanctions. Why are coaches and athletic directors across the country upset? Is the NCAA losing control of college athletics? And what message does this ruling send to athletes who have faced similar penalties in the past?
Then, Anthony shifts to the NBA Finals where the New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs are battling for a championship. With Victor Wembanyama forcing major defensive adjustments, can Karl-Anthony Towns rise to the occasion and deliver when the Knicks need him most?
Join Anthony for insightful analysis, strong commentary, and thought-provoking discussion on the stories shaping the sports world.
Topics Include:• Brendan Sorsby controversy• NCAA authority and gambling violations• Texas Tech fallout• College football integrity concerns• Karl-Anthony Towns under pressure• Victor Wembanyama's impact on the Finals• New York Knicks vs. San Antonio Spurs• Anthony's "In The Zone" commentary

Today we take a deep dive into the Shedeur Sanders that wasn't heard. After learning of Dillon Gabriel being named starting QB going into the game versus Minnesota in London. When asked what his thoughts were on still being the No. 3 QB he answered but nothing was heard. His mouth was moving but nothing came out and concluded with a smile. Even when asked how Joe Flacco had been helpful with his and Dillon's development, his response was non audible. Then we turn our attention to the WNBA where there is drama not on the court but the VP of the WNBAPA who has gone on record saying Cathy Englebert is the "worst leader in the world." Calling out issues as bad officiating, player safety, and rookie contracts.

Today on The Ride we take a look at the history of the WNBA and the founding players who helped shape the league into what it is today. The league was founded i n 1996 and began play in 1997 as the women's professional basketball league in the United States. In this episode we will look at the growth of the league over the years with teams relocating and rebranding. We will also look at the challenges the league faced such as competition for viewership, financial hurdles, and establishing a strong fanbase. Also we take a look at some of the players that help laid the groundwork for the league such as: 1. Sheryl Swoops: often called female "Michael Jordan." Swoops was one of the league's first stars, playing for the Houston Comets and winning 4 consecutive MVP awards and 4 championships 2. Lisa Lesie: A dominant center who played for the L Sparks, Leslie was the first woman to dunk in a WNBA game and helped propel the leagues popularity. 3. Tamika Catchings: Known for her defense and versatility, Catchings was a longtime star for the Indiana Fever, winning the MVP award in 2011 and multiple championships. 4. Sue Bird: A key figure for the Seattle Storm, Bird has been a leader on and off the court, winning multiple championships and Olympic medals. 5. Diana Taurasi: Often called the "White Mamba," Taurasi has been one of the league's most prolific scorers and a central figure of the Phoenix Mercury. 1. Candace Parker: A versatile star who has played for the LA Sparks and Chicago Sky, Parker has been a dominant force and league MVP.
These players, among others helped establish credibility, inspire young athletes, and attract fans to the league. Their performance, leadership, and advocacy have been crucial in elevating the WNBA's profile. Can't overlook the impact and legacy Maya Moore left behind* Member of the Minnesota Lynx * WNBA Rookie of the year (2011) * Multiple All-Star selections * WNBA MVP 2014 * WNBA Finals MVP (2013) * Four Championships (2011, 2013, 2015, 2017)

On today's show I had the honor of having Chance Liebau from ESPN Wichita. My apologies for the tech issues. But we made the best of a bad situation. Afterwards I went off the cuff to praise women sports and especially women's basketball. I read the comments how regardless of how the game of women's basketball is being talked about, we're starting to recognize names and faces of players it doesn't stop some from saying it's boring to watch. Is it because they're not doing rim rattling high flying dunks like a Ja' Morant or shooting logo 3 pointers like Steph Curry. I would challenge anyone who has the bored mentality if you have nieces, granddaughters, etc... Get out and watch them one time even if it's at Biddy level. It might change your mind.

On Today's podcast we start the ride by picking by way of Parker, CO 6'6" 2225lbs forward from Wichita State Ronnie DeGray lll. Ronnie looks to be a key member of what looks to be a promising season for the Shockers and looks to improve on last year averages and provide that veteran leadership. Also based of off last nights actions of one Chennedy Carter is under some intense heat for her actions towards Marina Mabrey which have led to fans chiming out saying she needs to be suspended from the league. IMO a few games suspension yes. Fine, maybe. Terminated from the league, all I ask is this. Would these same fans be saying the same thing if Caitlin Clark committed the same acts? However the train ride continues to roll on as we take a look at some of the area HS football teams as we get you ready for the upcoming HS Football season

To add fuel to the fire, Jackson State is in pursuit of an Alabama 5-Star recruit whom Alabama has their sight set on. Also, there seems to be a growing sentiment that outside of Chris Paul NBA players aren't supportive of the release of Brittney Griner. As it seems, the NBA players and mainstream media has made this an afterthought. And with Tony Pollard emerging should Zeke be relegated to RB2?

What can we really say about Chris Paul? he's been a winner everywhere he's went however what's hanging over his head is his/team record of 0-5 when leading 2-0 in the playoffs. Prior to his arrival in Phoenix they were the Devin Booker show and there playoff was Booker's scoring record he posted. Now some would say when the suns made it to the NBA Championship they were gifted that opportunity in biblical manner i.e. a parting of the Red Sea so to speak. For instance when they played the Lakers AD went down to injury, then there was Denver playing without it's second best player in Jamal Murray and let's not forget the other team that resides in L.A. the Clippers playing without Kwai Leonard. So we fast forward to the Championship game vs. The Bucks. They jump out to a 2-0 lead but then comes The Greek Freak an shatter all dreams. So, is it Chris Paul or is it the team? I'll go on record and say given a choice between CP3 and John Stockton I'll take CP3. we don't know what Stockton would be without Karl Malone

In this episode I start with what may be deemed as controversial as Bryce Witt who is QB for Chowan has received an invitation to play in the Legacy Bowl which is a showcase for players from HBCU schools. One problem is Chowan isn't and HBCU school and Bryce Witt isn't black. In addition Eddie Robinson Jr. is hired at Alabama State University and South Carolina plucks a recruit form NCA&T's backyard. Then I catch up with Rick Thomas from Running the Table Podcast and in my last segment I close out in prayer 🙏🙏 for my friend and brother Scott Stiles.

The 32nd edition of the Southern Heritage Classic in Memphis promises another layer of anticipation as former NFL stars Deion Sanders (Jackson State) and Eddie George (Tennessee State) lead the teams into battle.
The television ratings for the first full weekend of college football are in the books and HBCU football did better than multiple Power Five matchups, led by a big win from Deion Sanders and Jackson State.The Jackson State-Florida A&M and Grambling State-Tennessee State matchups both outdrew several P5 matchups on Sunday afternoon.The GSU-TSU game was aired live on NFL Network with a kickoff-time of 4 PM EST. It drew a rating of .20, with viewership of 315k. That number outdrew the Stanford-Kansas State game that kicked off at noon EST on Saturday which had 312k viewers. It had more than 60k viewers above Nevada and California’s 10:50 PM EST matchup brought in.
The JSU-FAMU game was even more widely viewed, pulling in a rating of .422. That rating nearly doubled the Pac 12-Big Ten matchup of Oregon State vs. Purdue. That game was aired on Saturday night during prime time with a 7:16 PM start and had a total viewership of 439k. By comparison, an average of 715k viewers saw Deion Sanders lead his team to a 7-6 win over Florida A&M on ESPN2.

It's called March Madness for a reason. In some instances it could be deemed March Sadness. Take a look at Virginia who is the defending national champs but run back to the prior year when they became that number one seed that lost to a 16 seed team. Well they didn't loose to a 16 seed but they managed to do what only a few teams did. Manage to squeeze in a national championship in between loosing to double digit seeded teams.

The 1985 NBA draft class was undoubtedly loaded with some talent and future H.O.F. players and yet after it's all been played out you wonder how did certain players get drafted where they were. I saw Xavier McDaniel dominate Benoit Benjamin in college yet Benjamin gets drafted 3rd one spot above McDaniel. Or how about Patrick Ewing only plays 50 games his rookie season yet wins R.O.Y. award when maybe it should have came down to Xavier McDaniel or maybe Wayman Tisdale who had more body of work there rookie seasons. But a lot of interesting names in this draft. "Free" Charles Oakley, at 9 Chris Mullin who was drafted by GSW or Karl Malone going 13 to Utah Jazz.
