The Drive with @MarkEnnis and @BiggestBiscuit -9-14-2026- Hour 2
Q: What are your thoughts on Lincoln Keenholz's development so far this season?
He's shown to be a poised, dual-threat quarterback who can extend plays and make timely plays, with room to sharpen his first-quarter start and consistency from series to series.
The Drive with @MarkEnnis and @stbrown1020 -9-10-2026- Hour 2

Q: Matt, what stood out most about Louisville's performance against Ole Miss that surprised you?

The Drive with @MarkEnnis and @BiggestBiscuit -8-26-2026- Hour 3
Q: Not Matthew, Mark. Sorry. You just always find a way to like piss me off. What do you think about the quarterback depth chart and how early playing time will be decided?
Matt Fortuna explains that teams often start with a veteran in camp and let the rookie emerge as the season progresses, citing a common approach where the best option is kept as the first choice once they prove themselves in practice and preseason.
The Drive with @MarkEnnis and @lukeskywalka11 -8-25-2026- Hour 2
Q: What do you think the punishment will be if you play an ineligible player?
