Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Moving On From Trent Bray in Corvallis
Q: What was your first message to the team after the change?
Akey says the team was told to unite, focus on keeping players motivated, and pursue the goal of winning games together.
What Should Oregon State Football Look Like Following 0-3 Start?
Q: What would you build differently if you were in charge of the program?
The speaker argues for shifting from a pass-heavy system to a power-running, pro-style offense, leaning on Hankerson, Jabari Johnson, and prioritizing run game execution and better offensive line play, while also demanding smarter, less predictable defensive schemes.
Kevin Griffin Introduced As Oregon State's New AD
Q: What is your plan to make OSU's athletics program sit atop the Pac-12?
The plan starts with evaluating and restructuring our staff to focus on revenue generation, strengthening our NIL programs, and building a roadmap with the coaches to ensure competitive excellence across all sports, while leveraging university and donor support.
What To Know For Oregon State Football's 2025 Season Opener
Q: What stands out about your depth at quarterback and overall depth on offense after spring and fall camp?
The host and Bray discussed depth across positions, noting a stronger overall roster with more options at running back, tight end, and the quarterback room, while highlighting the potential limits of relying on a single group and the importance of development across backups.
What To Know For Oregon State Football's 2025 Season Opener
Q: You mentioned Cal is starting a true freshman quarterback. How do you prepare for that and do you have any special plans for week one?
The coach explained that preparation centers on Cal's schematic tendencies, not just the individual quarterback, studying formations, motions, and the passer's tendencies to anticipate what they'll run; game planning focuses on how to disrupt their offense rather than exploiting the rookie's inexperience.
