Ricky Cobb, the founder and creator of the wildly popular Super 70s Sports, never thought his social media presence would land him a daily program on OutKick.
“Initially, it started as something that I was going to do, I think, just as a hobby to dabble with comedy, and my love of sports, and the nostalgia that I had for my childhood. So, it was sort of a natural marriage of comedy, sports and reflecting on the era that I grew up in,” Cobb told Fox News Digital.
Cobb, a longtime sociology professor at Moraine Valley Community College, started posting about sports of the 1970s when he was “bored” in 2013. The X handle @Super70sSports now has over 750,000 followers and the feed has evolved as its popularity increased.
