Draft & Debate: Who's the next first-time CFB national championship coach?

Until Saturday: A show about college football

Texas, Oregon, Alabama, LSU, Michigan, and many other prominent programs are lead by coaches without a national championship to their name. Who will match Ryan Day and Ohio State as the next first-time CFB national championship coach? Chris Vannini and Ralph Russo draft three title-less coaches each, and debate whose lineup is better and why. Later, we answer your mailbag questions, including 'does recruiting even matter anymore'? Plus, what we learned from the Super Bowl and the Eagles' win.
