TheSabre.com presents The Preferred Walk-Ons Podcast, a college sports podcast through the lens of the ACC. Michael McGraw, a University of Virginia graduate and fan, and Michael Shutt, a life-long NC State fan, both grew up watching the ACC and have insights on the history and present of the conference ... plus plenty of healthy ABC – (Anybody But Carolina) bias.

Even though the ACC is struggling to keep pace financially with other conferences, its schools are showing out in spring sports tournaments. Following a week off and a holiday weekend, this episode covers:

  • How one gas station chain has shifted the college football recruiting landscape (0:00-14:46)
  • ACC schools still competing for spring championships (14:46-18:56)
  • The top five sports figures, past or present, to invite to a Memorial Day cookout (18:56-38:29)
  • Growing uncertainty in the PAC-12 and a new revenue sharing model in the ACC (38:29-1:00:53)
