<p>Beyond Pierre lineman Grey Zabel, a North Dakota State Hall-of-Famer-to-be, it appears there may not be a South Dakotan (native, high school alumnus or local college player) drafted. But history tells us that doesn't mean there aren't several that could make an impact on NFL teams. </p><p>It appears J.J. McCarthty will "hit the ground running" as Vikings QB1, according to Kevin O'Connell. But KOC also continues to lead Zim and John to believe the Vikes still may have Aaron Rodgers on their radar, which they should. </p><p>Exhausted by NIL/portal transfer talk? So are we. So we keep it to a couple of recent nuggets.</p><p>Finally, Augustana deserves a standing ovation for the forthcoming renovation of the Elmen Center to make it the on-campus hoops home -- at long last and full circle.</p><p>And, we have two Dead Guys of the Week — one, we learned during taping of the show.</p><p></p>

<p>South Dakota State's roster full of youngsters and rookie starters looks green, while several USD players are leaving -- perhaps for literally greener pastures (NIL money?).</p><p>Those are a couple headlines from spring football at the Rushmore State Div. I schools, according to Sioux Falls Live's Matt Zimmer, who joins John Gaskins for another "Nobody Listening Anyway" pow wow from Gateway Lounge. </p><p>Who and what stood out at SDSU, and what do we make of quatterback Chase Mason so far? And what does the exodus from Vermillion lead us to believe about the nature of FCS and college athletics?</p><p>Yes, it delves into another NIL and portal transfer, but we promise an entertaining one. </p><p>Plus, you don't want to miss Zim's rant about the Twins, which aims squarely at "dumb" owner Joe Pohlad.</p><p></p>

<p>Woops! We failed to post the reaction show to Eric Henderson leaving SDSU for Drake and the near-immediate hiring of Bryan Petersen as his on-staff replacement.</p><p>Are Jackrabbits fans spoiled?</p><p>They are treated to national championship football teams and every-other-year NCAA Tournament berths for men's basketball.</p><p>Yet, there's still frustration among some about the football and basketball coaches leaving after 2-6 years.</p><p>How do we make sense of it, and of Eric Henderson leaving for Drake, a job that seems "barely" a notch above the SDSU job (and in some areas, like arena and fan support, maybe a notch below)?</p><p>There's real "life-changing money" to all this... and how much does that matter?</p><p>Was Bryan Petersen the right hire? How much does his junior college head coaching experience matter?</p><p>And what kind of a choice would "Coach Klink," the 19-year assistant, have been?</p><p>John Gaskins and Matt Zimmer sort at all that, then squabble about the importance of a mid-major presence in the NCAA men's basketball tournament.</p><p></p>
