John Canzano Show: Cost to keep John Mateer and can WSU afford him?

November 12, 2024

John Canzano, JohnCanzano.com joins Jason “Puck” Puckett for his weekly look into college football. They jump right into the discussion surrounding WSU quarterback John Mateer. What would he fetch money wise in the transfer portal?  John estimates that the going rate for a top QB is over a million dollars.  Can the Cougs afford to keep Mateer around?  Does he get a sense that Mateer wants to look elsewhere or is he happy in Pullman?  

Should Jedd Fisch move on from Will Rogers and start Demond Williams the rest of the season.  The Huskies are not going to a major bowl game so why keep playing Rogers?  John and Puck both agree that the NIL has something to do with the decision surrounding Rogers.

What are the expectations for the Cougars and the college football rankings tonight and what type of chaos do they need in front of them to sneak in to the CFP.  John was on the scene in Utah covering the “Holy War” between Utah and BYU. He reacts to the scene where the Utah AD claims that the game was stolen from them. Utah does not have an exit fee and can leave the Big 12 any time they want, would they jump and come back to the Pac-12?  John dishes on those chances.

Lastly, John and Puck talk about the passing of former Blazers broadcaster Brian Wheeler. A gentle and troubled sole.
