This is a thing and this thing is happening tomorrow night. And as one of my bosses points out, it might be the closest thing to a Tier 4 tailgate. (Also, that’s the guy you want to get after about the tailgate.) Pay attention to the star burst, too, please.

Also, no Scoop & Score tomorrow. I neglected to mention on the air last week we had a previously scheduled conflict. We’re back next week, and that’s our season finale. I’ll press pause for two months and come back for Big 12 media day, when the talking points are fresh and the takes are especially hot.

But in the meantime there and even here, I’m digging in for some stories and projects I want to devote time and depth to. I also have vacations I have to get to, too. I’ll be busy. Please don’t think I got lazy.
