Show notes

Steven Godfrey joins Alex Kirshner and Richard Johnson for a two-part show this week.

Gameday homes, Dak, and Starkville real estate Jun 30, 2021

Show notes

This episode is an example of the bonus episodes we regularly publish on our Patreon, which you can subscribe to at splitzoneduo.com. Patrons will see another episode going up on their feeds just as they see this one. Maybe you know someone who's spent a weekend at a gameday home –– a property they or a friend bought exclusively for use on college football game weekends. This episode is about the growth of those properties in the SEC –– and in Starkville, Mississippi, in particular –– and how Mississippi State's mid-2010s success has had a tangible impact on the housing supply in the Bulldogs' city. Taylor Shelton is a Georgia State geographer who recently conducted a first-of-its-kind study into the proliferation of gameday homes, how they've boomed in recent years, what they've done to housing markets in cities like Starkville, and what they've changed about how SEC cities use their space. In other words, this is an interview about what football can mean to real estate markets and college towns in the American South. You can find Taylor's study at www.taylorshelton.info, and his Twitter handle is @kyjts. Or you can enroll at Georgia State and get the paid version of all he has to offer.

How the Supreme Court shut out the NCAA Jun 23, 2021

Show notes

Mr. Emmert went to Washington and came back with a big fat L. Amateurism isn’t dead, but it is most certainly in poor health after a unanimous decision put a chink in the NCAA’s largest amateurism armor. Banner Society’s Steven Godfrey joins the show to discuss what exactly it means for players being paid, and takes your questions via #ASKSZD.

Michigan, and how we talk about football coaches Jun 16, 2021

Show notes

Steven Godfrey, Richard Johnson, and Alex Kirshner discuss the story surrounding sexual abuse at Michigan and how Bo Schembechler factors into the conversation. (Content warning: The opening segment of the show includes discussion of sexual abuse and its handling by college administrators and sports fans. It ends at the 31:14 mark of the show.) Much of that segment is about how we, as a college sports industry, build up coaches and then have trouble walking away from their legacies. Then the group discusses the soon-to-expand College Football Playoff, Richard defends the notion of Alabama losing multiple games, and we answer some good questions from listeners.

All the hot Power 5 gossip fit to print May 26, 2021
