This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.splitzoneduo.com
We get a lot of questions about how we keep up with the wide world of college football to bring you this podcast. How do we try to figure out where the interesting stories are? How do we keep eyeballs on a sport with so many teams at so many different levels? In the spirit of transparency and it being April, let’s talk about how to process a sport with a million things happening at once. These are our tips from years of covering the sport professionally, but they aren’t just for media members. We hope they can help anyone get more out of CFB.

USC’s Cautionary NIL Tale + Spring Portal Window Breakdown
USC reporter Luca Evans of the Orange County Register joins Alex to talk about the many challenges facing the Trojans in the NIL and collective space (4:19). How does a rich school with a blue-blood football history run into difficulty in this new world? USC is the best window into that question. Then Richard and Alex talk about the unusual buildup to the April transfer portal window (33:32) and break down interesting position groups to watch over the coming weeks: Michigan’s QBs, Penn State’s WRs, and more at Miami (x2), UNC, USC, and Washington. To close, they discuss the different ways that football institutions decided to remember (or not) O.J. Simpson (1:04:02). Production: Anthony Vito.

How a pro football personnel director sees college football
Richard has a conversation with Eric Galko, the director of football operations and player personnel for the East-West Shrine Bowl. It’s wide-ranging: Eric shares his 2024 NFL Draft hot takes and QB rankings, then talks about how the NFL views college players—and how well their programs are developing them. Eric tells us whether NIL actually ruined the third day of the draft. And having developed the XFL kickoff plan that is now part of the NFL, Eric shares whether college football is ready to implement the same thing.

The Eyes List: Spring sitrep on 2024's most fireable coaches
This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.splitzoneduo.com
In 2023, Neal Brown was the industry's most fireable head coach. Then he had a good enough year to get a small contract extension. Who is 2024’s most fireable coach? Well, there are a few contenders. Godfrey, Richard, and Alex take the temperature on a handful of coaches who look troubled as spring ball gives way to what could be their final offseasons in their current jobs. Who has the best chance to resurrect his tenure, and who is in trouble? And in the case of Billy Napier, are all 7-5 records created equal?
