• 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!
