    Good podcast generally, but odd not to do a podcast on the most important game of the year and jump straight into the offseason.

    I’ve been a fan of Greg since he was in uniform. He’s taking that level of excellence into his analysis. I always check in to see what his takeaways are. He is one of the best out there. Must watch

The offense will emphasize a strong running game with diverse back options, focusing on the run-game identity and using the offensive line to create angles; Smith's background is expected to bring balance and efficiency.
Always College Football: 1-on-1 with Ryan Day + Ohio State’s BIGGEST question!
Q: What is driving the coaching staff changes and how will they impact the program this spring?
Day explains the move to bring NFL-level coordinators, reducing his on-field play-calling to focus on CEO-level leadership, donor relations, and overall strategy, while using specialists to handle scheme and play development.
Always College Football: Mario Cristobal EXCLUSIVE + why a 24 team CFP would kill the regular season

Always College Football: Mario Cristobal EXCLUSIVE + why a 24 team CFP would kill the regular season
Q: What is your take on the possibility of expanding to a 24-team playoff?
I acknowledge the positives, like broader access and more on-campus playoff games, but I'm wary of harming the regular season's meaning and the physical toll on players, so I'm exploring both sides.
Always College Football: McElroy previews Indiana vs Miami for the National Championship
Q: Can Miami force threes instead of sevens?
Miami's defense will need to limit Indiana's scoring opportunities in the red zone to keep the score manageable.
