Re: 2016 Season outlook-&-100 days countdown

I was talking to the mom of one of the guys who did the first all access show and she said that her son was told that if the basketball went well, Coach Farley really wanted to do it as well, and possibly do a cycle of football and basketball every other year.

I love it when you post. Really good stuff from you. Thanks.

Could this be the start of filming for the Football All Access show Introduction video or just a Season Introduction video?
