Send us Fan MailIt's Monday night and Tuffy Talk Live opens with breaking news before the show even hits its second segment, Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby and the university mutually part ways, ending the gambling injunction saga that had college football holding its breath for two weeks. Layton, Greg, and Ethan react in real time. Greg calls the NCAA "punked." Ethan says it feels like a PR move driven by Big 12 pressure. Layton ties it directly to the Will Wade situation, because if you want to talk about ethics in college athletics, you can't do it without talking about both.Then the Will Wade investigation. NC State is not letting this go quietly. The timeline is damning, LSU's season ended March 11, Wade resigned March 25, he was introduced at LSU March 26, and the buyout was set to drop from $5 million to $3 million on April 1. NC State Vice Chancellor Allison Newhart wrote that the school has reason to suspect LSU influenced efforts to avoid or delay notice of Wade's recruitment to save money on the buyout. LSU responded by asking NC State to sign a legal waiver. NC State refused. Wade's response to all of it? "They're pretty mad for a coach they didn't think was very good." Ethan calls it a Captain Obvious situation. Greg says you hold people accountable. And the conversation turns to the real question, does NC State have a case, and what are they actually going after?Then the new Report Card segment debuts, and Layton, Greg, and Ethan grade every one of Chris Hart's moves in his first two weeks as head coach. First up is a name we hadn't heard before, Mississippi State catcher Andrew Raymond, who chose NC State over multiple SEC schools specifically because of the program's catcher development history. All-Rookie A-10 as a freshman at George Mason before transferring to Mississippi State. Greg and Ethan both land at B-plus. Then Hunter Warren gets an A, Ethan makes the case that Warren has been better than Luke Nixon in Year 1 and Year 2 comparisons. Chet Lax gets a B-minus from Ethan, not a reflection on Lax himself but on where he slots in a rotation that still needs more arms. Jesse Gutierrez gets a B, Greg hears from a former San Jose State teammate that Gutierrez sits 89 to 91 as a starter and bumps to 92-93 out of the bullpen. McCall Biemiller gets a C from Ethan and an incomplete from Greg — 13 career innings is simply not enough data. Taylor Black as recruiting coordinator gets an A-minus from both, Ethan notes he stepped into exactly the job Hart vacated, the Florida pipeline stays open, and Bo Robinson and JT Jarrett keep their roles without having to be promoted past where they belong.Then NC State basketball, JUCO center Shah Hall official visit breakdown, the Auburn frontcourt target situation, and whether state even needs Hall if the roster fills out elsewhere. Jacob Burns and Amir Moore football commits, Greg says he can't get excited about three-star recruits even though he respects what they represent. Ethan ties it back to the bigger picture, you find your star players through the high school ranks and use the portal for depth, not the other way around. And the ACC power rankings debate, On3's Andy Staples has NC State 10th. Greg says 7 or 8. Ethan says Virginia is the most overrated team on the list and breaks down exactly why their nine-win season last year was smoke and mirrors. Plus shoutouts to Ty Head as a Gold Glove finalist and Rett Johnson earning Perfect Game second-team freshman All-American honors.Tuffy Talk is NC State's home for sports talk, hot takes, and everything Wolfpack.

In 2024, Coleman Scott seemed primed to become the next coach at Oklahoma State. He was about to be inducted into the National Wrestling Hall of Fame after a stellar career as a four-time All-American, an NCAA champion, and an Olympic bronze medalist.Then things took a quick turn. Instead of being the heir to John Smith's program in Stillwater, uncertainty was present.A quick reset and a chance to change things up, Coleman and his wife Jessica bought some land and build a wrestling room - and basically a dorm and a kitchen. Now, hundreds of kids pass through the doors at The Farm Wrestling Camps just outside of Stillwater, Oklahoma and the Scotts are thriving.What's new and what's to come?Want an ad-free version of the show AND the best in wrestling news from around the world?

In 2013, Tony won both the Clay Target Championship and the Doubles Championship at just 17 years old. The guys cover Tony's early start with the Chip & Crack team, the people who helped shape his game, the lessons he learned from George and Jackie Snellenberger, and what it takes to keep competing at a high level while working third shift and living the real-world grind.They also get into the mental side of championship shooting, including how Tony handled the pressure of the Clay Target shoot-off, why the Doubles Championship felt different, and how confidence can change everything when the targets are on the line.Of course, this episode also gets technical. Tony breaks down his approach to singles, handicap, and doubles, including gun setup, point of impact, hold points, eye issues, doubles timing, footwork, and why sometimes the best advice is still simple: point the targets out.This is a great episode for young shooters, working shooters, serious competitors, and anyone who loves hearing from a champion who has been there, won big, stepped away, and is now coming back strong.Enjoy this episode and please like, share, comment, and subscribe to support the channel.Follow & Subscribe to Trap Talk!

Marshall Softball All-American Sydni Burko joins me on this episode of The ThunderCast for a conversation about one of the greatest individual seasons in program history, her decision to come home and transfer to Marshall, and why the future of Herd Softball may be even brighter than its present. In 2026, Burko was named the Sun Belt Conference Player of the Year and Sun Belt Conference Newcomer of the Year while earning All-American honors and setting Marshall's single-season home run record with 24 home runs. She led the Sun Belt in home runs, OPS, and slugging percentage while finishing among the conference leaders in RBI, hits, and batting average. But this conversation isn't just about statistics. We talk about why a player who grew up just down the road from Marshall chose to come home, what made this year's team so special, playing for fellow Ona native Morgan Zerkle, and the culture that's helping transform Marshall Softball into one of the premier programs in the Sun Belt. Sydni also shares her thoughts on the future of the program, the returning talent that has Marshall fans excited, and why this team feels like it still has unfinished business heading into next season. And of course, we wrap things up with some fun rapid-fire questions covering teammates, music, food, Marshall traditions, and more. If you're a Marshall Softball fan, this is a conversation you won't want to miss. There is a lot of excitement throughout the Herd Universe right now, and after listening to Sydni talk about where this program is headed, you'll understand why.

College football has changed forever.Not just because athletes can now earn money, but because 18, 19 and 20-year-olds are suddenly being asked to make decisions that most adults still struggle to navigate.That's why this conversation hit different.Welcome to the latest episode of Y-Option: College Football with Yogi Roth, fueled by our founding sponsor 76, keeping you on the GO GO GO so you never miss a beat.In advance of the Elite 11 Finals, I sat down with Ohio State offensive lineman Luke Montgomery, Georgia quarterback Ryan Montgomery, and Dane Burkholder — a partner at Roseville Wealth, where he and his team manage over 2.1 Billion dollars every year. Dane also coined the phrase and founded the company The Financial Athlete.Today's guests unpack the new reality in college football: The Rise of the Financial Athlete, and the way an All-American offensive lineman in Columbus and his quarterback brother in Athens navigate it all.For those seeking to surround themselves with athletic minds who are succeeding in the Financial Athlete world of college football — look no further than these two, and Dane, for role models.To be blunt: athletes and parents need to listen to this.The Montgomery brothers didn't just talk about contracts or NIL deals — they talked about patience. Discipline. Delayed gratification. Building a trusted circle. Protecting their future. And understanding that money can either become a blessing…or a distraction.In other words, they used football analogies and applied them to their business life. As they should.Luke opened up about what it's really like navigating the NIL era at a powerhouse like Ohio State — and how head coach Ryan Day embraces his responsibility to impact his team off the field when it comes to balancing football, expectations, leadership and real financial accountability at an incredibly young age.Ryan shared why development mattered more than chasing the biggest payday when he chose Kirby Smart's Georgia Bulldogs, and how keeping the bigger picture in focus has shaped every decision he's made since arriving in Athens.What stood out most to me was their perspective.Throughout our conversation, I kept thinking about what all of us who love sports so often preach — that the skills that allow you to find success on the field will always transition into life.And that is exactly where Dane Burkholder and his education around being a Financial Athlete meets the moment. Dane's team and their content continues to impact this generation of athletes, parents and coaches in ways that are helping athletes on countless levels.Join THE HONOR ROLL campaign. Free Newsletter + Fun Gifts.As our conversation wound down, I was struck by how consistently Luke and Ryan kept thinking 20, 30, even 40 years ahead.About setting up their future families.About investing instead of reacting emotionally.About understanding that football won't last forever.And maybe most importantly, they spoke about the power of environment.The right coaches. The right teammates. The right family. The right mentors.Or as my father still tells me: “You are the company you keep.”This episode will resonate with athletes, parents, recruits and honestly anyone navigating pressure, opportunity and long-term decision-making.Because the truth is, The Financial Athlete isn't just a football conversation anymore.It's a life conversation.It's also Elite 11 Finals week — where every quarterback, parent and mentor will have seen this podcast and will get to be part of our powerful curriculum, Beyond the X's and O's, which we've been running for nearly 20 years.The people who taught Luke and Ryan how to navigate life from day one — Mom and Dad — will be special guests in an intimate conversation with Dane and me, going behind the scenes on how they raised their sons to thrive on the field while staying so level-headed off it, as Financial Athletes at two of the most pressure-packed universities in the nation.I can't wait for this one — as a college football analyst and as a parent.Be sure to subscribe to Y-Option: College Football with Yogi Roth to get it right in your inbox, and on YouTube as we continue to grow our community.Much love and stay steady, YogiY-Option: College Football with Yogi Roth is a reader-supported publication.

From 14 Straight Losses to National Coach of the Year: The Chris Ayres StoryChris Ayres knows what it feels like to struggle before things finally click.Long before becoming one of college wrestling's most respected coaches, he lost 14 straight matches as a youth wrestler.Most athletes would have quit.Instead, Ayres stayed in the fight.In this inspiring episode of HarmonyTALK, host Greg Frigoletto speaks with the New Jersey native about resilience, leadership, and the unlikely path that carried him from underdog athlete to national coaching success at two of the country's most prestigious universities: Princeton and Stanford.Ayres reflects on growing up as a high-energy kid searching for direction, discovering wrestling as a place where his intensity became an advantage, and learning how failure often becomes the foundation for future success.That persistence helped transform him into an Eastern Intercollegiate Wrestling Association champion, a two-time recipient of Lehigh's Outstanding Athlete honor, an All-American wrestler, and a record-setting athlete before launching a coaching career that reshaped multiple programs.After helping Lehigh capture five straight Eastern Intercollegiate Wrestling Association team championships as an assistant coach, Ayres took over a Princeton program that had nearly been canceled years earlier and helped guide the Tigers into one of the most exciting eras in program history, including a Top 6 national finish.Now at Stanford, Ayres has quickly elevated the Cardinal into national contention, earning 2026 National Coach of the Year honors after leading Stanford to a sixth-place finish at the NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships in only his third season.Filled with honesty and perspective, this conversation goes far beyond sports. It is about positivity, persistence, and what becomes possible when someone keeps showing up long enough for the story to change. @Greg FrigolettoFollow Chris Ayers:Instagram: @ayers157Facebook: @ChrisAyresStanford Wrestling: @CardWrestling

In this podcast, Greg Voisen sits down with Kurt Krueger, a true "Renaissance man" whose life story reads like an adventure novel—from record-breaking All-American swimmer and water polo coach to a high-stakes survivor of a 1977 airplane hijacking. As the author of "Winning Ways for Living: Get Smarter ~ Perform Better," Kurt shares how 45 years of researching peak performance led him to a startling conclusion: the ultimate "peak" isn't found in a trophy, but in a global vision of peace. Throughout this gripping conversation, Kurt reveals the "Peacemaker's Miracle Meditation"—an elegantly simple practice he used to transform gang-heavy inner-city schools and transmute his own life-threatening experiences into a mission for harmony. He challenges the notion that peace is a passive state, instead presenting it as an active, creative force that can be scaled from a single classroom to the world stage. If you've ever felt paralyzed by the conflict in the news, Kurt's journey from elite athletics to the Peacemaker Circles Network offers a radical, science-backed shift in perspective that proves "peak peace" is the highest performance level of all.
On this episode, Bob Ryan and Gary Tanguay play a game of 'what if?' Bob theorizes how good Reggie Lewis and Len Bias would have been had they not tragically passed away. Bias was an All-American star at the University of Maryland who died of a fatal cocaine overdose on June 19, 1986, just two days after being drafted to Boston. Reggie Lewis, the captain of the Celtics, tragically died of sudden cardiac death on July 27, 1993, during an off-season practice at Brandeis University.

There are moments in life that break us and moments that remake us. Mo Isom Aiken's story is one of both. From an Elite Division 1, All-American athlete to a woman haunted by trauma, addiction, and suicidal despair, Mo's life took a dramatic turn when a near-fatal car crash became the very altar where heaven met earth. What followed was a supernatural encounter with the Holy Spirit that not only saved her life, but ignited a transformation so complete it would ripple through her marriage, her motherhood, and her mission around the world. This isn't just a story of redemption. It's a call to awaken to the invisible spiritual warfare waging over every soul—and to the freedom that comes with surrendering everything. In this episode of the Revelations Podcast, host Reagan Kramer sits down with Mo Isom Aiken for an unfiltered, deeply moving conversation that spans trauma, healing, and the raw power of a life fully yielded to Jesus. Mo opens up about growing up in the Bible Belt, navigating father wounds and performance-based identity, and the spiritual warfare that nearly claimed her life. Together, they explore Mo's radical encounter with God in the wreckage of her Jeep, the prophetic call that led her family from a fifth-wheel RV across 48 states to the mission fields of Nigeria, and the power of intercession that reshaped her view of prayer entirely. This episode is for the believer who feels stuck in cycles of shame or silence, the seeker longing to hear God's voice again, or the weary warrior who needs to remember what it means to defect from the kingdom of darkness and live fully alive in Christ. Here are three reasons why you should listen to this episode: Gain deeper understanding of how a supernatural encounter with God can occur amidst unimaginable personal tragedy. Learn how radical obedience—like selling everything and living in an RV—can unlock divine provision and spiritual growth. Reflect on the importance of prayer, spiritual warfare, and intimacy with the Holy Spirit in a chaotic world. Become Part of Our Mission!

Just as no man can serve two masters, we cannot live in both worlds. That lie keeps us stuck, powerless, and numb to God's call. Cultural Christianity is an illusion; we should consider what full surrender actually looks like. Mo Isom Aiken, a former All-American athlete turned revivalist and prophetic voice shares her story of defection from darkness—and the fire of obedience that followed. [02:56] Mo Isom Aiken: Childhood and Early Life Mo discovered her identity through competitive sports. Despite being raised in a Christian household, her faith was cultural and lacked deep personal roots. She describes the impact of early exposure to pornography and the pressure of performance-based love from her father. Her struggle with an eating disorder and need for control remained hidden behind a mask of success. [12:22] Transition to College and Personal Struggles At LSU, Mo excels as an All-American goalkeeper but continues battling inward brokenness. [13:02] Mo: “How much of my true self and my true life can people handle? Because they have this picture of me, and yet I am destroyed inside.” Her father committed suicide, devastating Mo both emotionally and spiritually. She turns to sexual sin, secrecy, and self-harm, wrestling with suicidal thoughts and tormenting spiritual voices. Though publicly praised, she describes living with private torment and deep spiritual oppression. [20:54] Spiritual Awakening and Healing Mo survives a violent car crash and has a supernatural encounter with the Holy Spirit while trapped in the wreckage. She describes the weight and wonder of God's presence as overwhelming yet freeing. [22:58] Mo: “The kingdom of darkness was literally mad because things had been set up in my life that my gifts, my talents, my destiny, my anointing, my very God, given fingerprint of God, purpose was going to be leveraged for evil was going to advance the kingdom of darkness, if not for the mercy of Jesus” In that moment, she chooses full surrender to Jesus and receives a baptism of fire Through FCA, she found a godly community, received a baptism at LSU, and experienced revival. A two-year intimacy fast sets the stage for meeting her husband, Jeremiah, and building a Christ-centered family. [56:44] Mission to Nigeria and Angelic Visit Mo recounts a dream where an angel tells her she'll go to Nigeria to forge a deeper connection to the divine. Initially resistant due to fear for her children, she surrenders and receives confirmation from her mentors. The family spent eight months in Lagos serving under Nigerian spiritual leaders. Their time becomes a season of discipleship, humility, and spiritual equipping for future ministry. [1:14:19] The Power of Prayer: Greatest Takeaway from Nigeria Mo describes prayer as the single greatest lesson from their mission season. In Nigeria, daily prayer was non-negotiable—fostering spiritual strength, wisdom, and breakthrough. She challenges Western believers to move prayer from a fallback to a foundation. Prayer, she emphasizes, is the gateway to discernment, power, and intimacy with God. [1:21:24] Teaching the Next Generation to Prioritize Prayer Mo and Reagan discuss the difficulty of maintaining a prayerful life amid Western busyness and distractions. Mo explains how she and Jeremiah are raising their children to see prayer as essential, not optional. They commit to resisting hustle culture and modeling devotion in everyday life. Mo calls for prayer warriors to arise—those who walk in reverence, not performance. [1:32:39] Spiritual Warfare and the Call to Live Fully Surrendered Mo prays a powerful blessing over listeners for renewal, healing, and sanctification. Revival begins in surrendered hearts, not just pulpits; it is in living God's Word to be kind and loving to all those around you. It is our time to live fully awake, defecting from darkness and advancing God's Kingdom with boldness.

"I spent a lot of time and pain trying to hide things from everyone." Thomas Davis On this episode of the The Pivot Podcast, former NFL linebacker Thomas Davis Sr. sits down for one of his most raw and emotional conversations yet. From a childhood shaped by adversity to becoming an All-American at University of Georgia and a cornerstone of the Carolina Panthers defense, Thomas opens up about the journey behind the success fans thought they knew. He reflects on battling through three devastating ACL tears in the same knee, defying every expectation to return to the field and eventually becoming one of the most respected leaders in the NFL. Thomas also shares what it was like playing alongside Luke Kuechly, building one of football's most feared defenses, and helping lead Carolina to the Super Bowl. He shares the one time he regrets not listening to Luke and the Lombardi it possibly cost him and his team. But beyond the accolades and highlight reels, Thomas speaks candidly about the darker chapters of his life — his dependence on painkillers during his playing career, the physical and emotional toll football took on him, and the personal consequences that followed after retirement. In a deeply vulnerable discussion, he addresses his divorce, the estranged relationship with some of his children, and the struggle to rediscover himself after the game ended. This is a conversation about resilience, accountability, pain, healing, and what happens when the cheers stop and real life begins.

Wayne Simien is an NBA champion for the Miami Heat and two-time All-American and Big 12 Player of the Year for the Kansas Jayhawks. He currently serves as Associate Athletics Director of Strategic Engagement for KU. Wayne also works as a broadcaster for KU Men's and Women's basketball on ESPN+. Before joining Kansas athletics, Wayne spent 12 years in campus ministry. He and his wife Katie are the parents of five children. In this episode we discuss the following: Good things don't happen by accident. Whether good health, meaningful relationships, or a flourishing career, all of them require work. And often a coach who is guiding us and pushing us and a team that holds us accountable. Competitiveness is more about having the drive to prepare than having the desire to win. From Bill Self Wayne learned the importance of toughness as a leadership trait. By making practice harder than the games, players develop resiliency and grit on a day-to-day basis. From Roy Williams Wayne learned that long term success comes from commitment to a system. Ten years after leaving KU, Roy was winning national championships at North Carolina built around his same system. And what an amazing lesson Wayne learned from Pat Riley. After winning the NBA championship with Hall of Famers, Shaq, Gary Payton, Alonzo Mourning, and Dwyane Wade, the first drill they did the next year was the basic three man weave.
