Two long looks: Vikings QB change and Kent Youngblood on women’s basketball

It was a long day of drama Monday for the Vikings, and it started right up again Tuesday. What does it all mean? Plus Kent Youngblood looks back on the Big Ten women’s basketball tournament and ahead to the 2024 Lynx.

Host Michael Rand spends a bunch of time on all of the major moves by the Vikings since mid-day Monday. Kirk Cousins is gone; Rand talks about Atlanta’s absurd offer, praise for Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and whether the Falcons ultimately saved the Vikings from themselves.

Plus Rand has more on new quarterback Sam Darnold, running back Aaron Jones and more.

18:00: Kent Youngblood joins Rand for a discussion of women’s basketball -- everything from the Gophers to Caitlin Clark to the Lynx in 2024.

36:00: Intrigue for the Wild.
