What It’s Really Like Hosting Full Ride With Rick Neuheisel

Rick Neuheisel and I have spent more than a decade together on Full Ride. That is a lot of mornings. A lot of college football. A lot of arguments, laughs, strange tangents and moments that could only happen when two people with completely different personalities are asked to host a three-hour radio show together every weekday. On this episode of Show Pony Live, Rick joins me for a conversation that is part college football and part behind-the-scenes look at our unusual partnership. We talk about how Full Ride actually works, the quirks we have discovered in each other, where we are completely different and why those differences have helped make the show what it is. If you have listened to us over the years and ever wondered what Rick and I are really like away from the microphones, this episode will give you a pretty good idea. We also dive into the biggest college football stories surrounding Week 3, including: * The drama surrounding Lane Kiffin’s return to Ole Miss * What emotions Lane could experience walking back into Oxford * The fascinating familiarity connecting LSU and Ole Miss * The pressure surrounding both programs * The other games and storylines Rick is watching this weekend It is football analysis, storytelling and a look behind the curtain at a partnership that has lasted longer than either of us probably expected.

Lane Being Lane: John Talty Takes Us Inside the Wild World of Lane Kiffin

There is only one Lane Kiffin. Today on Show Pony Live, CBS Sports’ John Talty joins me to talk about his new book, Lane Being Lane, which is available for preorder now. And if you think you know the Lane Kiffin story, there is a whole lot more to it. Talty takes us inside the life and career of one of the most fascinating characters college football has ever produced — from Lane’s rapid rise through the coaching ranks to the spectacular failures, controversies and reinventions that have followed him along the way. How did Kiffin go from the young coaching phenom everyone loved to hate to one of the biggest personalities in the sport? What has he learned from everything that went wrong? How much has Lane actually changed — and how much of it is simply Lane being Lane? We get into all of it with Talty: the people and experiences that shaped Kiffin, the mistakes, the comebacks, the Nick Saban years, the evolution of Lane and what Talty discovered while researching and writing the book. Plus, we talk about the latest chapter of Kiffin’s career at LSU and where his story goes from here. Lane Being Lane is available for preorder now. Show Pony Live is presented by AR’s Hot Honey.

College Football Is Back: Belichick, Virginia, NDSU & LSU vs. the SEC

Show Pony Live is presented by AR’s Hot Honey. Use promo code SHOWPONY15 for 15% off your order. College football is officially back, and so are the overreactions, arguments and wonderfully weird storylines that make this sport unlike anything else. On today’s Show Pony Live, we recap a busy opening weekend. North Carolina gets a win in the Bill Belichick era. After everything surrounding Belichick and UNC, we finally have actual football to judge. What did we learn, and how much should we take away from the opener? Virginia starts with a win. We get into what stood out from the Cavaliers and what the performance could mean moving forward. North Dakota State makes one hell of a debut. The Bison have spent years building one of the great winning cultures in the sport, and their latest performance was another reminder that you should never take NDSU lightly. Then we get to the story that might have some real staying power: LSU vs. the SEC Lane Kiffin has never exactly been afraid of controversy, and LSU is already finding itself at odds with the conference. I get into the latest battle, why LSU is willing to push back against the SEC, and why this relationship could become one of the most fascinating stories to follow this season. Football is back. The drama is back. And Show Pony Live is ready to roll all season long.
