New England Patriots Mike Vrabel Joins, Memorial Day Tribute, Bielema Extension & Clemson Preview
Some things are bigger than football.
Urban, Mark & Rob reflect on what Memorial Day means to them and how they honor those that served.
Want some job interview advice? New England Patriots Head Coach Mike Vrabel might not be the guy to go to. He and Urban look back at their time together in Columbus, the Patriot Way, and how coaching the new generation of college athlete is different than just five years ago.
The Fighting Illini hit 10 wins for just the fifth time in school history, so what do they do? Write Bret Bielema a fat check of course. Urban reflects on why Bielema is built for the Big Ten and why Illinois fans should be excited about the future. The guys then take a look at one of the most talented teams heading into the 2025 season: Clemson football with "The Crystal Ball".

College Football Turning Professional, WVU's Rich Rodriguez Joins & Notre Dame 2025 Season Preview
What is love? For some, it certainly doesn't seem like it's football.
Urban, Mark & Rob go deep into the conversation of players & coaches true love for the game; specifically, how NIL & the transfer portal has shifted the mindset of college football players, even as they prepare to go pro. Urban peels back the curtain on what to look for when truly evaluating a player's hunger for success, while Mark explains that it's genuine passion that gets you to the ultimate goal.
Then, new (or old?) West Virginia Head Coach Rich Rodriguez joins the guys to talk about his return to Morgantown, his championship expectations & somewhat familiar life in the Big 12. Oh yeah, and keep that TikTok mess out of the locker room!
Finally, we take a look into the crystal ball & break down Notre Dames 2025 schedule. Can the Irish repeat their previous season's success & make another National Championship run, or will their #CFBPlayoff hopes be slashed before they even begin? 10.5 wins is alot!
