  • Steady Droppin' Dimes: Bryce Underwood spring game eval; NFL Draft; Shannon Sharpe scandal reaction
    Apr 24 2025
    This week on Steady Droppin' Dimes, Sam Webb and Devin Gardner discuss the Michigan football spring game, focusing on the performance of freshman quarterback Bryce Underwood who had a stat line of 12/26 for 187 yards and a touchdown. The hosts debated the significance of his performance, noting the lack of full allotment of skill players, offensive line, limited ability to show his improvisational skill, and of course, his inexperience. The conversation shifted to the Shannon Sharpe scandal where Sam and Devin react to the NFL hall-of-famer and now popular host and podcaster is being sued for $50 million by an Only Fans model with whom he was allegedly in a relationship with for rape. Did Sharpe bring this all on himself? Sam then turns his attention to the Detroit Pistons' playoff series against the New York Knicks, which was evened up 1-1 behind a 33-point, 12-rebound bounc-baack performance by Cade Cunningham. Sam highlights the Pistons aggressive play and the Knicks' reliance on Jalen Brunson for all their aggression as the reason for the free throw disparity. He specifically highlights Karl Anthony Towns' 10 point, six rebound effort where he had zero shot attempts in the fourth quarter and zero free throw attempts in the game. Sam also analyzed the NFL draft, predicting four Wolverines in the first round, including Mason Graham and Will Johnson, who he believes will be selected before 15. He dismissed rumors of Jameson Williams being traded, citing the Lions' history of retaining talent. Steady Droppin' Dimes has a new presenting sponsor, The Ann Arbor Sports Commission!
