Dilfer's threats, Florida's progress, and the video game's lawsuit Jun 28, 2023

Show notes

Richard and Alex go through some college football news of the week, starting with some thoughts on a couple of tragic CFB losses this week in Ryan Mallett and Terry Price. Then the show covers why recent NCAA enforcement actions do not have any cultural juice, the overcomplicating of what will soon become a legal fight between San Diego State and the Mountain West, the Florida Gators' rebuild under Billy Napier starting to bear visible fruit, and why the recent news about the EA Sports college football game seems like it's being misinterpreted. Production: Anthony Vito.

Coach contract facts and a CFB mailbag Jun 14, 2023

Show notes

Richard shares insights from his extensive dive into the quirkiest clauses in the contracts for 2023's new head coaches. Some of them could be a big deal and seem to be getting more common in the industry. Then, he and Alex run through a big June mailbag that touches on a bunch of topics, including the significance of Notre Dame's new AD hire, DJ Uiagalelei at Oregon State, what's going on at Georgia State, the Pat Narduzzi-Deion Sanders beef, the Big Ten not protecting any Penn State rivalry games, Cal's place in the Bay Area, and what surprised Richard about a visit to Lincoln.

College (sports) heads toward a cliff Jun 07, 2023

Show notes

American higher education is about to have a big numbers problem on its hands, and it could affect college football in significant ways (albeit probably not for the Ohio States and Alabamas of the world). Alex interviews Dr. Nathan Grawe, an expert on the "enrollment cliff" that's rapidly approaching for U.S. colleges. Before that, Alex, Richard, and Godfrey talk about CFB news of the week and what a big outside investment might look like if CFB had its own version of the current PGA Tour story. Production: Anthony Vito.

Big Ten, Big Mad May 24, 2023

Show notes

Godfrey, Richard, and Alex talk about college football news of the week: USC and Michigan both let guys resign who shouldn't have had their jobs in the first place. Georgia makes a pivot toward an even scarier future by leveling up its QB recruiting to the tippy top of the sport. USF may actually, at long last, build a stadium. And the Big Ten has trouble in paradise over its very lucrative TV deal: What's fair, and where should the B1G just pipe down and cash the checks? Production: Anthony Vito.
