It’s a mid-June podcast, so there’s no better time to discuss and debate the return of the NCAA football video game and how it compares to Madden. Yahoo Sports’ Nate Tice join Carlos McDonald on the latest episode of The Exempt List to discuss this and more. The two also do an in-depth film study on Carolina Panthers rookie Bryce Young to see if he can turn his career around after a terrible rookie season. Charles and Nate end the show by answering questions from their Twitter mailbag.
