Rivals guys…Austin Ward and Jeremy Birmingham (both huge homers who had more access than anyone BTW).

Don’t have all the details, but they have both been fired by Rivals and the podcast they are doing for cause.

Company that backs their podcast is apparently owned by someone involved heavily in Ohio State NIL. That’s how they get a lot of their access. Allegedly, the company brokered a $25k NIL deal for some Caleb Downs promotion and they gave him 5k and kept the other 20k.

Both have scrubbed their employers from their Twitter bios.
