    We dive into the FOS-exclusive story behind Michigan’s recruitment of No. 1 prospect Bryce Underwood, largely facilitated by billionaire Larry Ellison’s involvement in the Wolverines’ NIL offseason.

    Plus, the Washington Commanders could benefit greatly from a proposed bill that would grant a new lease to their former home of RFK Stadium in D.C.. Front Office Sports reporter AJ Perez joins to discuss the outlook for the Commanders’ next playing site and where the funding for a D.C.-based stadium would come from.

    Also, Saquon Barkley could boost the NFL running back market, and we explore the legendary impact of John Madden, and the NBA wants Caitlin Clark involved in All Star Weekend.
