D’Eriq to Miami, Eli retires, and Big Rob goes to jail

Gary and Chris dive into a ton of different topics on a bunch of different sports, kicking off with football, and ending with internet tout Big Rob stealing $10M from an "investor."

  • [1:50] College Football News
  • – D'Eriq King transfers from Houston to Miami… can he make them good?
  • – Dave Aranda is the new head coach at Baylor, and he hired Jorge Munoz from LSU as his OC
  • – Todd Graham is the new HC at Hawaii… does this help Graham's image, or hurt Hawaii's?

  • [13:30] NFL News
  • – Eli Manning retires – is he a 1st ballot Hall of Famer?
  • – Antonio Brown arrested – what path is he going down?
  • – Lamar Jackson is the star of the Pro Bowl this weekend… but is there anything happening to make you want to watch?

  • [24:41] College Basketball News
  • – Kansas / Kansas St fight – does De Sousa deserve to come back? Kansas winning the title this year would just be a black eye on the sport

  • – big CBB matchups for this weekend

  • [40:50] Zion Williamson's debut ended in a minutes restriction, which cost the Pelicans the game against the Spurs. Does this prove that the NBA doesn't care about regular season games?

  • [43:08] Derek Jeter missed being a unanimous Hall of Famer by one vote… and no, we don't think that guy deserves to lose his vote.

  • [47:40] Gambling tout and influencer "Big Rob" was indicted on felony charges for "stealing" $10M from an "investor" and using the money to bank roll his lavish lifestyle, rather than actually gambling it. Who is the bigger idiot – the investor or Rob?

Gary Segars

Gary began his first website in 1998 as a sophomore in high school, writing reviews of cds and live shows in the Memphis area. He became editor of his college newspaper, then moved towards a career in music.He started the infamous MemphisTider.com blog during the 2006 football season, and was lucky enough to get into blogging just before the coaching search that landed Nick Saban at Alabama. The month and a half long coaching search netted his site, which was known for tracking airplanes, over 1 million hits in less than 90 days. The website introduced Gary to tons of new friends, including Nico and Todd, who had just started the site RollBamaRoll.com.After diving into more than just Alabama news, Gary started up his first installment of WinningCuresEverything.com in 2012. After keeping the site quiet for a while, it was started back up in April 2016. Gary then joined forces with high school friend Chris Giannini and began a podcast during the 2016 football season that runs at least 2 times a week, focusing on college football, NFL football, and sports wagering, and diving into other sports and pop-culture topics.E-mail: gary@winningcureseverything.com Twitter: @GaryWCE
