The Sunday sprint episode with the guest was awesome. I felt like I was chopping it up on the couch with the boys talking ball. Fun and balanced conversation. I would like just a bit more talk about the smaller guys. West Virginia, Michigan state, NC state, etc. Great job though. I’ll tune in more often.
Very good podcast lots of useful information
It’s Pate 2.0. He’s even now doing stuff “only for podcast” the way Pate does. Shannon Terry really does have a type and just goes above and beyond using it.
Shows should be 30min max. So many silly analogies and filler content. Not for the serious CFB fans, another POD for the casuals
Really get tired of all the Georgia and Texas love. You guys are circling those two teams and yeah Kaleb Deboer was a good coach at Washington, but he ain’t nothing now I guess. JD Baker you are now Clickbait like all the other wannabe Talking Heads.
