    Who benefits and suffers under college hockey's new eligibility framework?

    For players in the US and Canada, the road to the NHL used to be divided into two primary paths: play in the Canadian Hockey League or for an NCAA men's hockey team. But thanks to recent rule changes, CHL players can now jump to college hockey. Ryan Nanni walks Steven Godfrey through what that means for both groups, the impact on college rosters, the other leagues that stand to lose out in this new arrangement, and how this change is prying open the door, at least a little, for some former professionals to get NCAA eligibility. Phantom Island is presented by Homefield and produced by Michael Surber.

    Not-An-Emergency Discussion: Michigan Unexpectedly Opens, Kyle Whittingham Unexpectedly Finds A New Job (PREVIEW)

    Because Steven Godfrey and Ryan Nanni are fools, they believed the coaching carousel for 2025 to be largely complete. Then Sherrone Moore was fired for cause and arrested, and the Wolverines spent about two weeks rumoredly attached to several candidates before hiring Kyle Whittingham. With the dust settled (for now), we sat down to discuss how Utah-lifer Whittingham even became available, what expectations look like for his tenure, and whether a larger accounting for the problems inside the athletic department at Michigan will happen.

    Was SEC Speed Real? (Live in Athens)

    On November 14, 2025, Phantom Island held its first live show in Athens, Georgia, and we picked a topic suitable for the location: was the SEC's proclaimed speed advantage real? (And, if so, what happened to it?) Part trivia contest, part guy remembering, and part amateur data analysis, this episode walks through the concept of SEC Speed as both discussion point and measurable trait. Phantom Island is presented by Homefield and produced by Michael Surber.

    Why did Jon Sumrall get assigned a premium seat on the coaching carousel? (PREVIEW)

    Even before the 2025 college football season really got under way, Tulane's Jon Sumrall was being floated as a top name for a number of theoretical SEC openings. On this episode, Ryan Nanni asks Steven Godfrey what exactly made Sumrall an attractive target - and eventual hire at Florida - to get a better sense of what the market values from up-and-coming head coaches.

    What do open records laws have to do with balloon displays?

    David Covucci, founder of FOIAball.com, joins Ryan Nanni to discuss how journalists use open records laws, the art of crafting a good FOIA request, what the job of a FOIA response officer is like, the challenges of navigating open records systems in different states, and why this all means dozens of colleges had to tell David how much they spent on elaborate balloon displays. Phantom Island is presented by Homefield and produced by Michael Surber.

    Why do coaches claim to be victims of threatening fan behavior without evidence?

    At three different points during his introductory press conference in Baton Rouge, Lane Kiffin claimed an angry Ole Miss fan had tried to run him off the road while he was driving to the airport to leave Mississippi. One problem: when Mississippi Today dug into that story, they couldn't find any police records to back it up. Steven Godfrey and Ryan Nanni discuss Lane joining an interesting set of coaches who have previously alleged that they were threatened or harassed by fans, only to have those stories look doubtful upon closer examination. Phantom Island is presented by Homefield and produced by Michael Surber.
