Ohtani Economics With Joon Lee | Billy Napier Fired As CFB Buyouts Reach $116M

Billy Napier is out at Florida after more than a year of speculation, and the Gators owe him more than $21 million for the buyout. Why is this becoming the norm in college football and could Lane Kiffin replace him? FOS newsletter writer David Rumsey explains.

Plus, the Dodgers have already seen a full return on their $700 million deal with Shohei Ohtani—reportedly offset by first-year merchandise and ticket sales, according to baseball reporter and analyst Joon Lee. He joins Baker Machado and Renee Washington to explain Ohtani’s economic impact and evaluate how a potential “international” World Series between the Dodgers and the Blue Jays would position MLB in the global marketplace.

Also, FOS Asset Class author Ben Horney talks through expansion in the NHL and MLB, the Savannah Bananas could be worth $100 billion someday, and the Colts and Broncos fight for the top spot as the NFL’s must-watch team.
