Luke Gifford mentioned to us last week that he was part of a major turnaround on special teams with the 49ers…how difficult is it to revamp something so quickly? Jul 13, 2026

Show notes

-The 49ers were last in special teams rankings in 2024, and improved to a top 5 unit in the league in 2025…we did see a turnaround for

Nebraska in special teams last year under Mike Ekeler but he has since moved on…what is the biggest thing that goes into a turnaround?

-Bill also helped turn around a Nebraska defense in the middle of the season---surely more difficult to do than having a whole offseason to do

so—how does it happen effectively?

Colorado QB Julian Lewis pulled a producer Connor last week and said he was “free balling” at times last year playing QB…how often does that happen at the D1 level? Jul 13, 2026

Show notes

-Lewis mentioned it last week at Big 12 Media Days, and it is fun to laugh it off now since he was a freshman last year and it’s a new season

ahead…but it also makes you wonder how often that happens and how it’s allowed to happen

-Bill has been in locker rooms for many, many years across all sorts of locker rooms…does this happen a lot or not? Is that something about not

knowing how to read a playbook or more than that? Who can pull it off?
