  • Shane is good

    But all the predictions are wrong. Jc is just bad for the show. Get rid of him. Why would he be qualified to talk about Gators football?

    This show. Would be considerably better without JC. I have no idea who he is and he is boisterous and rude. I donโ€™t know why anyone cares what he says!

April 15, 2026 ~ Graham Hall, JC, Tyler Harden
Q: Who do you think gets NBA Rookie of the Year, and what stands out about the top candidates?
The discussion centered on Colin Kniep and Cooper Flagg as notable rookies, highlighting Kniep's historic three-point shooting and Flagg's high upside as a 19-year-old; the takeaway is that rookie awards depend on both early performance and long-term potential, with the voting often influenced by expectations and team success.
April 16, 2026 ~ Shane, Brent Beaird, Kevin Brockway
Q: Is the push to eliminate the conference title games as much about compressing the length of the season as it is about eliminating the competitive disadvantage to the participants?

April 20, 2026 ~ Shane, JC, Scott Carter
Q: What games are you most looking forward to this upcoming Gator football season?
Shane highlights Oklahoma, Texas, Auburn, and Ole Miss as the marquee games, with the Oklahoma game in November generating the most excitement and several other key SEC matchups to energize the fanbase.

Q: Who will be the starting quarterback this fall?

Q: How is the event benefiting UF Health?
100% of the proceeds go to UF Health, reinforcing the fundraiser aspect and the community-oriented mission of the Johnny Townsend Foundation.
