He answered Q about new transfer rule that would hurt African Americans. Said when u sit out a year you are more likely to graduate, and that would go away. Was really a very informative answer by Mick. It was in the last 1/3 if the show if anyone wants to get the podcast. He also said he is all for graduation etc. Was really coming from his heart.
Said "it doesn't matter how I feel about it, it is inevitable, so we have to prepare for it". Very interesting to find out that you have to sit out a year for men and women's basketball and football. But other sports you can transfer and play right away. I never knew that. I thought it was across the board for all college sports.
He lets the players do the postgame because they are the ones doing the work/ playing. Was awesome hearing all that.

Thought what he said about Chris Archer was pretty hilarious. He didn’t realize he was in the big leagues, thought he was a minor league pitcher maybe and his parting words to him was make sure to be saving his money. Afterwards Dan Hoard told him he was an all star pitcher for the Rays, where Mick made a joke about him making 200 million in the future and what he said was to save his money. Typing it out doesn’t sound that funny now, but it was pretty laughable on the radio.
He said Chris Archer would be getting a Bearcat gift basket in the mail from him.
