Way-too-early 2027 NFL Draft Preview: Which college QBs will headline? + CFP meetings report
2026/04/23
It's draft day! The 2026 NFL Draft is here, but by the time you are listening to this, the draft may be well underway. So, rather than give you more coverage of this year's draft, Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey took a look ahead to the 2027 NFL Draft. A year ago, the 2026 quarterback class was being touted as a very strong class. That shine has dulled significantly, to the point of only one or two quarterbacks going in the first round. Enter the 2027 hype. Oregon's Dante Moore, Texas' Arch Manning, Notre Dame's CJ Carr and Ohio State's Julian Sayin are a few of the names that headline what appears to be a loaded class. The guys discuss if this class will suffer the same results as the 2026 class or if there is a lot more to look forward to? They also discuss topics such as: Is there a chance that Jeremiah Smith could be drafted first overall? Does Arch and Texas' success this season determine the future of Steve Sarkisian in Austin? Will the Mannings control where Arch lands in the NFL like they did with Eli? All of this and so much more as they look ahead to the coming college football season and draft to follow.
Then, the CFP meetings have finally wrapped up and Ross has more updates to discuss. While there were no decisions made, there was plenty of news and important information to take from the week. Andy, Ross and Godfrey discuss everything that happened during the CFP meetings and what this means moving forward for both the CFP and the future of college football.
Later, did you know that USC's championship window is now open? According to Lincoln Riley, that is the case. The guys discuss the USC head coach's comments and take a look at what this season holds for the Trojans? Does missing the CFP this season spell the end of Riley's tenure in Southern California?
All of this and more on today's College Football Enquirer.

Is the CFP expanding to 24 teams? + Which players are undervalued in the 2026 NFL draft?
2026/04/21
Double the size of the playoff? The proposal from the Big Ten, that felt unrealistic months ago, now appears to be a real possibility. Ross Dellenger is at the CFP meetings this week and reports significant momentum behind expanding the College Football Playoff to 24 teams. When, or if, this will happen is still to be determined. Andy Staples and Steven Godfrey discuss the impact of such a massive expansion and how the conversation has gotten to this point.
Then, Ross shares some more information coming from the administration side of college athletics. The College Sports Commission is being challenged for being too restrictive on the deals athletes can sign. The guys discuss how they saw this coming from the start and what may happen as a result.
Later, it's time to have some draft conversations. The 2026 NFL draft is on Thursday and there have been mixed reviews about this draft class. The quarterback class is viewed as relatively weak, but Andy and Godfrey debate if that is in fact the case. Then, they discuss players who are being undervalued in this 2026 draft. From LSU's Harold Perkins Jr. to Iowa's Logan Jones to Navy's Eli Heidenreich, who are some sleepers that could make a big impact on NFL rosters?

Is an SEC title Georgia's new ceiling? + Emerging eligibility rule updates
2026/04/16
"I will never apologize for winning an SEC title." Those were Kirby Smart's words recently. In an era where conference championship success pales in comparison to College Football Playoff success, is this thinking the way of the past? Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey discuss if Georgia is underachieving and should be concerned with its future. Is it possible Georgia's new ceiling is an SEC title? The guys don't think so.
Then, Ross Dellenger gives the latest update on the rule that would eliminate redshirts. Last week, Ross reported this news for the first time. Since then, there has already been movement. While an actual decision has not yet been reached, the latest development is whether or not seniors, who recently thought they had finished their collegiate careers, could get one more season if they had never redshirted. This creates a complicated scenario with the NFL Draft right around the corner and college basketball's transfer portal in full swing. The crew discusses what may happen as a result and if the transfer portal could reopen?
Later, Louisiana Tech has finally straightened out its 20-game schedule. Tech had planned to leave Conference USA for the Sun Belt, but Conference USA had already included them in next year's conference football schedule. At the same time, the Sun Belt had done the same since they were expecting them to join this fall. A resolution has finally been reached which will see Louisiana Tech pay a hefty exit fee to Conference USA. The guys discuss everything that happened in the situation. Plus, there's a new special teams rule that has the coaches up in arms. Andy breaks down what is going on.

Six spring ball storylines to watch: Alabama QB battle, Michigan under Whittingham & more
2026/04/14
Spring ball is in full swing, and it's getting fan bases everywhere excited for fall. Today, Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey look at the top six storylines coming out of spring ball from all around the country. The guys start in SEC country where there are some big quarterback battles going on. In Tuscaloosa, redshirt freshman Keelon Russell is battling redshirt junior Austin Mack. Mack came to Alabama from Washington with Kalen DeBoer, but Russell has been turning heads this spring and seemed to take a big step over the weekend. In Gainesville, new Florida head coach Jon Sumrall has a QB battle of his own going on. The guys discuss this and the first impression Sumrall has left on the Gator faithful. They also talk about his recruiting success and the support he is initially receiving amongst the fan base.
Then, the crew shifts the conversation to Michigan. The Wolverines are another team with a new head coach this year. Kyle Whittingham is running the show after stepping down at Utah. Andy, Ross and Godfrey discuss Whittingham's immediate impact and how good they think Michigan could be this year. Plus, they take a look at Houston and head coach Willie Fritz. Not only do they look at what Houston's third season under Fritz may look like, but they also discuss the impact of the Big 12's Friday games.
Later, the guys dive into two other notable stories in college football. One is a huge change in Cal athletics. Cal announced they will be firing over 20 staffers from marketing, athletic communications and creative services. In their place, Cal is creating Strawberry Creek Studios. The crew discusses the potential impact of this on the greater college landscape and why this is also a unique situation. Plus, Memphis has announced a jersey patch sponsor. FedEx will be sponsoring Memphis and Andy, Ross and Godfrey discuss this new deal.

Eliminating redshirts? Looking at the NCAA's proposal + is Miami rethinking its QB model?
2026/04/09
No more redshirts? Goodbye medical waivers? That is what the NCAA is proposing. Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey dive in and discuss the proposed five year eligibility rule. This would eliminate both redshirts and medical waivers, allowing athletes to compete for up to five years starting at their high school graduation or 19th birthday. The guys discuss whether this proposal is a good solution for college athletics or if it will create more issues moving forward?
Then, Andy, Ross and Godfrey look at what else from the President's executive order could actually go into effect in the NCAA. The eligibility rules may have a chance, but could something like a one-time transfer rule or shifting of the transfer portal be put into place in the future? The guys discuss.
Later, the crew narrows the focus from the broad NCAA to one school. Miami recently received a verbal commitment from Rivals' third ranked quarterback of the 2027 class. The Hurricanes have been a school, of late, who has focused on bringing in transfer quarterbacks each year. Could this recent commitment show a change in Miami's future QB model? May teams start to shift away from transfer portal quarterbacks? The guys discuss this and debate whether a team can win a national championship today with a homegrown quarterback.
All of this and more on today's College Football Enquirer.

Alabama AD calls for end of conference title game + is the SEC collapsing?
2026/04/07
As the evolution of college football continues to move forward, another voice has been heard from. This one is from the South. Alabama athletic director Greg Byrne has called for the end of the SEC championship game. "I think the ship has sailed," were some of the Alabama AD's words. Andy Staples and Steven Godfrey discuss Byrne's comments and how he is saying what many others have either said or thought. If the end of the conference championship games is in fact near, how would this impact the College Football Playoff? The guys discuss the potential impact and what could be substituted in for conference championship games that the fans would enjoy even more!
Then, we keep it in the South as Andy and Godfrey discuss if there should be concern about the Southeastern Conference. March Madness has officially concluded. Two Big Ten teams won the men's and women's tournaments: Michigan and UCLA respectively. That means it was a clean sweep by the Big Ten with national titles for football, men's basketball and women's basketball. It is the first time in nine years the SEC hasn't won at least one of those titles and the first time in 25 years that they have gone three straight years without a football national championship. Although that may not seem like a huge deal, the weight of this drought feels heavier for a conference that was seen by some as the pinnacle for many years. The guys chat about if the SEC is actually collapsing and how this era should be viewed.
There's no way we make it through an episode without some legislative talk, even with Ross out for the day. On Friday, President Trump issued an executive order addressing various issues in college athletics. Andy and Godfrey discuss how important this order is and if it will lead to any real impact or change in college athletics. Hint: if you have been listening to this show then you probably already know the answer.

Impact of NCAA's 'ghost transfer' rule explained + NCAA tournament expansion effect on CFP
2026/04/02
It is six months until October, but the NCAA already has us talking about ghosts. They have introduced the latest rule change in college athletics and it is regarding 'ghost transfers.' The new rule impacts transfers who go to another school outside of the transfer portal window. If they then play for the new school, that school will be subject to a six-game suspension of their head coach and a fine of 20% of their budget. Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey discuss the NCAA's latest rule and what type of impact it will have on the college football landscape. How long will it be until this rule is challenged in court?
Then, we move from the field to the court as Ross reports on the potential expansion of the NCAA tournament. The guys discuss not only how this would affect one of the best, if not the best, tournaments in all of sports, but how this could carry-over to impact the College Football Playoff as well. Will we start to see non-Power 4 teams eliminated from these postseason tournaments? Could a combination of rights deals between these tournaments be the future? The guys discuss all of this and more.
Later, one of the biggest players in both the men's and women's NCAA tournaments is struggling off of the court. Although UConn is having immense success in basketball, the continuance of remaining an independent in football is creating issues financially. They do not have the same pull as their independent counterpart, Notre Dame, and therefore only receive a very tiny piece of the revenue pie. The guys discuss the decision that UConn faces and the simplest solution of just joining a conference.

Big Ten's postseason success vs. SEC's postseason struggles & Lane Kiffin asks for patience
2026/03/31
March Madness is nearing its end, and it lived up to the name on Sunday. One similarity between the final four teams in the NCAA tournament and the final four teams in the College Football Playoff is that half of the field is from the Big Ten Conference. Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey discuss why the Big Ten is having so much success in the postseason. They also discuss why the SEC, which has no teams left in the NCAA tournament, is struggling in the postseason. Is the Big Ten the more dominant power conference? Is money the only factor that has leveled the playing field, or is there more to the change in power?
Then, the conversation shifts to a team that is in the SEC. Lane Kiffin spoke to the media recently and asked the LSU faithful to have patience while he rebuilds LSU into the team that they all desire. The guys discuss how realistic patience is from the Tigers' fan base. In an era of yearly roster reconstruction via the transfer portal, should immediate success be expected? Will Kiffin be able to succeed quickly in Baton Rouge?
Later, the guys talk about the College Football Playoff selection committee getting some new, and familiar, faces. With a few members' terms up, former Cal and Fresno State head coach Jeff Tedford and former Auburn and UCF head coach Gus Malzahn will be a couple of the new members joining the committee. Andy, Ross and Godfrey discuss the impact of adding two more head coaches to the committee. They also dive into the rules of when committee members need to recuse themselves during the discussions and voting. Will these fresh faces provide some positive change to the committee?
All of this and more on today's College Football Enquirer.

Sonny Dykes calls out Indiana's QB + How Duke is balancing resources & success
2026/03/26
Sonny Dykes did not mince words when calling out former quarterback Josh Hoover. Dykes spoke about Hoover on a recent episode of his show, "State of the Frogs with Sonny Dykes," and called out Hoover's issues with turning the ball over while he was the quarterback for the Horned Frogs. Hoover transferred to Indiana at the end of the 2025 season. Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey discuss coach's comments and how he could end up looking really bad at the end of the 2026 season. They also dive into what kind of success they think Hoover can have under Curt Cignetti at Indiana.
Then, Ross discusses his latest story on Duke athletics. He gets into how a small, private school that is known for basketball is able to balance its resources with very high levels of success across the board. Andy and Godfrey join in as they continue the discussion of how Duke, and schools like it, has to operate to maintain success. They also talk about if this is feasible in the long run and how these schools may be setting themselves up for the next phase of realignment.
Later, the crew gets into the latest viral video in college athletics. Adam Breneman is currently on a campus tour trip where he is showing facilities from various teams across the country. In a recent video, a Texas Tech player stated that they took out every dumbbell under 40 lbs. This sparked outrage across social media and the guys discuss just how ridiculous this whole situation became. Plus, they also discuss one of the latest CSC cases in which two Georgia women athletes are fighting back after their low value NIL deals were turned down.

The truth behind Kyle Whittingham's split with Utah + is college football killing March Madness?
2026/03/24
In December of 2025, Kyle Whittingham and Utah football parted ways. Just two weeks later he was announced as the new head coach of Michigan. Now more details have come out about the truth of what happened in Salt Lake City that led to this separation. On Friday, Ross Dellenger released an article about this which included the release of documents from Utah regarding the separation. He explains exactly what went down behind the scenes. Andy Staples and Steven Godfrey join the discussion about how the legendary Utah coach became the new head man at Michigan. Plus, they discuss why naming a head coach-in-waiting is always a bad idea.
Then, the guys dive into a story coming out of the SEC. Multiple SEC teams have reduced how much they are spending on recruiting by the millions. Is this strictly because teams are more focused on paying players now, or is there more to the story? Andy, Ross and Godfrey discuss where all this money is going and what else has led to a de-emphasis on recruiting budgets.
Later, the crew discusses if college football is hurting March Madness. The first weekend of March Madness is in the books, and it is another year with no Cinderellas making it past the opening weekend. Andy, Ross and Godfrey chat about college football's role in this and how conference realignment, NIL and the transfer portal are affecting a lot more than just college football.

Did Lane Kiffin leaving for LSU change college football?
2026/03/19
The world of college football remains unpredictable, but one of the craziest events during the 2025 season was Lane Kiffin leaving Ole Miss, in the middle of a playoff run, to go to LSU. Now, there may be a rule being put into the SCORE Act to prevent that from happening in the future. It is aptly called the "Lane Kiffin Rule." Ross Dellenger explains all the details behind this rule. Andy Staples and Steven Godfrey join in to discuss their thoughts. They also talk about the topic of how important head coaches are in the NIL era of college football?
Then, you may have thought the drama had ended with Trinidad Chambliss, but that is not the case. Chambliss was a finalist to be on the cover of EA Sports College Football 27, but he was informed that it would be too risky to put him on the cover. He is now blaming the NCAA's opposition to his eligibility as the reason he will not be on the cover and is seeking damages. Andy, Ross and Godfrey chat about this whole situation and also discuss who they think may end up on the cover.
Later, the guys create a very different type of bracket. We are now in the thick of March Madness, so naturally the guys have to create some type of bracket. This bracket is focused on tampering. The concept is what a bracket of coaches would look like if coaches were allowed to fight each other over tampering. The guys discuss who may be a surprising top seed and who else could make the field.

Who could be the next Indiana? + Why the NCAA selection show is better than the CFP's
2026/03/17
As spring ball continues on, Andy, Ross and Godfrey look at Indiana's magical run last season and discuss the looming question in college football: Who could be the next Indiana? What determines if a team can be considered Indiana-like and who might some of those teams be? Could Texas Tech be set up to be the next team up? What about another Big Ten team, Kentucky or SMU? Andy, Ross and Godfrey talk about all of these options and more.
Then, they shift over to March Madness and how it could affect the football world. The crew was very impressed with how Keith Gill, the chairman of the selection committee, explained the committee's choices. Andy, Ross and Godfrey discuss how Commissioner Gill, or someone like him, should be put in place to answer questions and give some transparency with how the CFP committee makes its decisions. They also talk about how the CFP having so many shows leading up to the final bracket does more harm than help. Plus, Ross shares the potential of the NCAA tournament bracket expanding even more and how public sentiment is against this just as much as it is against a 24-team CFP bracket.
Then, they revisit the SEC discussing if they should just make and enforce their own rules as a conference rather than going by the rules of the NCAA. The crew talks about how horrible this idea is and why it would lead to the end of the SEC. Also, they talk more about tampering rules in college football.

A time when fans' excitement and anticipation grows to see what their team will look like for the upcoming season. It is also the time when the heaters begin to turn on under some coaches' seats. One name atop the hot seat list is Alabama's Kalen DeBoer. Although he has had a successful start to his Alabama tenure, it is not successful enough for some of the Crimson Tide fanbase. Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey discuss this situation in Tuscaloosa. They also go down the list of some of the other notable coaches on the hot seat entering the season. That list includes names like Lincoln Riley, Mike Norvell and Dabo Swinney.
Then, the guys discuss the 18 Nebraska players who are going to arbitration with the College Sports Commission over NIL deals that were voided.

Recapping college sport's meeting at the White House + Ohio State's president resigns
2026/03/10
On Friday the attention of the college sports world was focused on Washington D.C. as President Trump gathered a large group to discuss the future of college sports. By the end of the meeting he declared he is going to issue an executive order to fix college athletics. Our own Ross Dellenger was there and tells us all about what happened at the roundtable. Andy Staples and Steven Godfrey react to the discussion that was had on Friday and they discuss what they think should happen moving forward.
Then, the guys discuss Ohio State president Ted Carter's resignation. The resignation, due to an inappropriate relationship, now leaves one of college football's biggest brands searching for a new leader of its university. Carter also played a large role in athletics. Andy, Ross and Godfrey discuss what role Ohio State presidents play when it comes to the Buckeyes' athletics, the hole that Carter is leaving with his departure and where Ohio State goes from here.
Later, the crew chats about Louisiana Tech's problem for the 2026 football season. It appears they are currently playing in two different conferences, but they are suing to make sure they get to move to the conference they desire to play in next year. Louisiana Tech is currently suing Conference USA to let them join the Sun Belt conference for this upcoming season. The guys discuss the issues going on with this situation and how it is holding up conference scheduling.

Big changes may be coming to future bowl seasons + jersey patch battles begin
2026/03/05
Changes may be coming to the future of college football's postseason. No, not for the CFP yet, but these changes are directly related to that. The changes are for the rest of the bowl season. Ross Dellenger shares his report about a potential re-worked plan for the bowl season that would include just 10 bowls between FBS teams. This also hinges on the final decision about the size of the College Football Playoff. Andy Staples and Steven Godfrey join the conversation as the group discusses if this would be a good move for college football and how exactly it would all work.
Then, the newest accessory to college football uniforms is picking up steam. 2026 will be the first season that schools can wear brand sponsored jersey patches, and the latest patch was just revealed. Arkansas is partnering with Tyson Foods and will be donning a Tyson logo on their jersey. The guys discuss how these deals could end up being very lucrative, for both schools and athletes, and how this concept sets some schools up for success while potentially causing other schools to panic. Andy, Ross and Godfrey share who they think would be some good partners for various schools. Plus, Ross reports on the latest news from the College Sports Commission that could be worth millions.
Later, the crew discusses an alarming trend in college football. There continues to be a mass exodus of assistant coaches jumping from college to the NFL. Following the 2025 season, at least 33 coaches have left for roles in the NFL, and the main reason is the drain that college football is putting on the coaches. Andy, Ross and Godfrey discuss what is causing this and if there is any way it will change? They also remember legendary head coach Lou Holtz, who passed away at 89.

Please take season Godfried off of the show
He is snarky, unsufferable, and cannot stop talking over other participants. Also, I’m beyond tired of his constant leftist union-organizing harangue.
