The "What's On Your Mind" crew tackles a mix of sports frustration and political analysis. The episode kicks off with the hosts lamenting the Minnesota Vikings' latest loss, focusing heavily on the offensive line struggles and Carson Wentz's lack of protection. They dive into whether the team was "outcoached" and joke about the possibility of convincing a retired Jason Kelce to join the team. Shifting gears, the hosts discuss a pre-taped interview with Senator Kevin Cramer. Topics include the government shutdown, the energy sector, and North Dakota's role in national defense, particularly the transformation of Minot and Grand Forks Air Force Bases to counter threats from China. They also touch on Cramer's relationship with Donald Trump and a theory that US agriculture could "grow our own way out" of economic issues. Senator Cramer provides insight from his meeting with President Zelensky's chief of staff, discussing Trump's view of foreign policy through an economic lens. Finally, former NDSU and Wyoming coach Craig Bohl, now head of the Coaches Association, joins the show to discuss the major issues in college athletics, primarily the NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) mess and the transfer portal. Coach Bohl highlights the exploitation of young players by predatory agents and the threat to the academic mission of college sports. He advocates for a national registration and salary cap for agents and a potential "buyout" system to compensate schools that develop players who transfer. Plus, the host gets his prediction for the NDSU vs. South Dakota football game.
