What If NIL Deals Changed Fantasy Football Completely?

NIL deals, college football recruiting, fantasy football strategy, and NFL predictions collide in this episode of Strikezones to Endzones, where sports culture and personal stories take center stage. From Bryce Underwood’s headline-grabbing flip to Michigan, to the role of alumni booster collectives and endorsement incentives, this episode dives deep into how money and media are redefining the college athlete experience.

The conversation also features sharp fantasy football analysis—lineup dilemmas, waiver wire frustrations, and week-to-week unpredictability. The hosts drop their NFL game predictions for the week, discuss underdog surprises, and offer strategic takes rooted in personal experience.

In classic Strikezones style, they weave in stories of high school gym floors, childhood sneaker mishaps, and the nostalgic joy of field day wins against the odds. It’s part sports, part chaos, and all culture.
