  • Worst in the business

    Steve Russel is horrible. Thinks he’s better than his callers. Without his callers and listeners he wouldn’t have a job. Typical D bag

  • No show?

    No episode, no explanation, and the podcast disappeared off my phone altogether. Did it have something to do with Mike Leach’s passing?

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Inside the Huddle (10-14-24)
Q: What happened to our defense?
The first time felt like an opposing team took shots down the field against us, which wasn't the case in earlier games like Miami.
Inside the Huddle (10-14-24)
Q: How critical are in-game coaching adjustments for winning?
In-game adjustments are definitely critical, especially when teams switch from man coverage to zone, as we struggle against zone.
Inside the Huddle (10-14-24)
Q: Why go forward on fourth and sixth in the fourth quarter?
It was a questionable call considering the team was struggling on third downs and it was only a seven-point game.
Inside the Huddle (9-30-25)
Q: Noticed a lot of referees questioning calls. What do you think about the officiating this season?
It's frustrating with penalties being called too frequently for non-obvious infractions.
Inside the Huddle (9-30-25)
Q: Could the Gators' struggles come down to practices not being intense enough to prepare for Saturdays?
Execution is key when wearing the real uniforms, not just practice intensity.
