In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham and Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") are back in studio talking about the major shakeup to the Trojan football program following Lincoln Riley's decision to fire defensive coordinator Alex Grinch and promote linebackers coach Brian Odom and defensive line coach Shaun Nua to co-defensive coordinators as well as promoting defensive analyst Taylor Mays to full time safeties coach. The guys talk about what Riley, Odom and Nua had to say this week and how things could look different on the defensive side of the ball going forward. They also take a look back at the loss to Washington that led to the Grinch firing and talk about USC's chances this weekend on the road against No. 6 Oregon.

Lincoln Riley knew it had to happen, and after USC lost at home 52-42, Coach Riley knew he had no other choice than to relieve defensive coordinator Alex Grinch of his duties. Less than 24 hours after he said he needed more time to evaluate and review the bigger picture, USC's coach decided to start looking for the Trojans next defensive guru. In the interim, Coach Shaun Nua and Brian Odom will have the coordinating duties while Taylor Mays was promoted to the on-field assistant status and will take over the safety group. They don't have a lot of time to try anything new, so in the short term, they need to prepare the guys for their first contest against Oregon on the road. During the show's 3rd segment, I started compiling a list of potential hires for the defensive coordinator spot. There are different levels of possibilities ranging from the Dream Team level to the go make an offer and get this guy now. #usc #uscfootball #Trojans #washingtonhuskies #calbears #FOOTBALL #arizona #wildcats #instantreaction #ncaafoot ball #big10 #big10football #uclafootball #notredamefootball #oregonducks #recruiting #reggiebush #heisman #utah #utesfootball #LincolnRiley #alexgrinch #nfl #nil #top5 #pac12football #defense #impact #mvp #transferportal #ncaa #notredame #sec #secfootball #alabamafootball #georgiafootball #pac12 #uclafootball #survival Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! eBay Motors With all the parts you need at the prices you want, it's easy to turn your car into the MVP and bring home that win.

We've spent so much time talking about TBOW, recruiting, Brent Venables, etc., that we haven't given Bob Stoops enough credit for what he's done for the Oklahoma program over the last few weeks. Stoops will coach his final game as Oklahoma's head coach Wednesday night. It's a curtain call for the man who was just inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame and already has his own statue on campus. We have no idea what Cale Gundy's offense and Brian Odom's defense will look like Wednesday night, but we know Oregon is down a lot of players. All of this might be a mess, but at least we know the OU program isn't a mess coming out of this thing. And we have Bob Stoops to thank for that. Eddie and Bob come to us from San Antonio and Josh joins us as he gets ready to go cover several OU targets and commitments in Orlando for the Under Armour All-American game. The full rundown follows below: 00:00 - It's (almost) Alamo Bowl Gameday 13:25 - Your weekly Caleb Williams update 20:00 - Could anyone help their NFL Draft status? 25:00 - What should you expect defensively? 40:00 - Josh is headed to Under Armour 47:00 - Bob Stoops brought the stability

In the opening take, Lee explains why he hopes a decision about Caleb Williams' future comes soon. Then Grant joins to briefly talk about Grant's favorite NFL team the Indianapolis Colts. Since nobody cares about that, we move on to looking back at the OU-Oregon onside kick debacle. We've never talked in depth about this on the show. It's incredible looking back how bad this was (7:40). It's fascinating that the TV broadcast did not think to ask "who recovered the football"? Lee goes back and watches the onside kick and comments on the refs in real time. Grant provides more perspective on what was going through Sooners' fans minds back in 2006 (15:15). Replay review later missed another call that went against OU. Lee rips the officials 15 years later (25:30). What does it say about the Alamo Bowl that the Oregon stuff is the most interesting storyline (28:05)? What's the deal with Caleb Williams? Lee's heard that he still has not made up his mind (34:00). What would Caleb Williams try to accomplish if he transferred? Ohio State and Alabama wouldn't make sense. Sure, he could still go to USC. What about Georgia (37:30)? Grant thinks Williams has to be leaning in some direction at this point. Is Williams holding the team hostage (48:40)? Both OU and Oregon have multiples players out for the Alamo Bowl. We're both pretty comfortable with OU's roster, despite the opt outs and transfers. We're both interested to see how Brian Odom calls the defense and how Cale Gundy calls the offense (59:25). Lee thinks Oregon's interim head coach could be distracted. Meanwhile Bob Stoops is here to win a football game (1:08:30). We share our gut feelings about the Alamo Bowl result (1:16:00). It appears that Jaren Kanak is enrolled at OU. Plus we go over some other possible players who've been rumored to be OU targets (1:18:55). Finally, the guys spotted a WR out of Texas who has zero stars and zero D1 offers. And they don't get it at all. Please someone explain recruiting to us (1:26:05). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

In the opening take, Grant gives his take on OU hiring Ted Roof for the defensive coordinator job. Then Lee joins to talk about the state of the OU football program in the early stages of the Brent Venables era (6:30). Lee goes over what OU's 2022 recruiting class looked like before Lincoln Riley left compared to what it looks like today. We also talk about why we don't get super into National Signing Day (11:00). To further our argument about why we don't get super into NSD, we look back on the absolute bust that was the 2019 OU recruiting class (18:30). We don't normally talk about OU recruits, but since it's signing day we decided to watch some HS tape of a handful of OU's signees. We go over some of the guys on offense that we like including WR Jayden Gibson, OT Jake Taylor, and RB Gavin Sawchuk (22:30). Now over to some of the defensive guys that have gotten a lot of publicity. Both of us aren't all that impressed with LB Kobie McKinzie's HS highlights. Does LB Kip Lewis have more upside? And Grant is excited for Tulsa Union's Jayden Rowe (31:00). Grant doesn't understand how a person like DT Alton Tarber was rated so low given his position and body type (38:20). Lee gives his take on DC Ted Roof and provides a bunch more background on his career and how we got here. It matters that Roof has been a part of a National Championship team... right (40:30)? We were really hoping Venables would bring over elite DL coach Todd Bates from Clemson. Not going to happen. We still don't know OU's full defensive assistant coaching staff (56:45). Who the heck is Thad Turnipseed? Brent Venables sure does love Clemson still, but will one of his Clemson commits come play at OU (1:01:10)? We're still waiting on Caleb Williams. We didn't listen to his appearance on the Jeremiah Hall/Brayden Willis podcast. Sorry (1:08:50). Spencer Rattler and Austin Stogner are off to South Carolina. Has your feelings on Rattler totally changed in the last month or so (1:11:30)? Cale Gundy and Brian Odom will call the plays in the Alamo Bowl. Lee makes it clear why the Alamo Bowl matters. Grant has learned to not read into the results of bowl games. Lee has some push back (1:16:00). This turns into an OU basketball podcast for a little bit as Grant takes a deep dive into Porter Moser's team (1:24:00). We finish up the show trying to figure out the upcoming podcast schedule and we try to figure out if OU should be favored by more than 4.5 points against Oregon? And how forgettable was the Heisman Trophy ceremony (1:31:45)? | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

In the opening take, Lee says OU's in a better position now than they were 10 days ago. Then Grant joins to talk about his favorite celebration style (5:45) before we stop messing around and talk about what we think of Brent Venables getting the head coaching job at OU (7:25). Venables addressed "why now" is the time he finally took a head coaching job. What are the chances he's going to be a good coach (14:10)? Lee begins pitching to Grant why he thinks OU is in a better place now compared to when Lincoln Riley left the program. Culture and team identity are important and it's going to chance under Venables (28:35). OU's defense is going to be better under Venables. We're excited to see how some of the current players develop under a new coaching staff (39:00). We pulled a soundbite of Venables talking about his offensive philosophy. We like that Venables is a coach who will tweak and coach game-to-game based on opponent. He also sounds like someone who wants to get the ball to his playmakers as much as possible. Lee also talks about that time the "Freezing Cold Takes" Twitter account got him (51:30). Was halftime during the OU-Georgia Rose Bowl the highest point of OU's Lincoln Riley tenure (1:02:05)? Lee continues his pitch to Grant. OU's offense will take a dip, right? Well... maybe, but also the ceiling could be higher with Venables/Lebby compared to Riley/Grinch (1:06:20). Do we think Caleb Williams is going to stay at OU? OU's got a better shot to win a National Championship in the next 2 years than USC, right (1:18:15)? We give our thoughts on Venables' coaching staff coming together. A lot of the original OU offensive staff sounds like they're staying on (1:26:35). Who the heck is Venables going to bring on as defensive assistants? No Jamar Cain is a bummer. Will anything come out on the Roy Manning/USC recruiting stuff? What's going to happen with Calvin Thibodeaux and Brian Odom (1:32:15)? Who's going to be the defensive coordinator? It's not going to be Mike Stoops is it? Jerry Schmidt is returning to OU. The gang is getting back together -- is that a good, or bad thing? Is OU more injured than other teams (1:42:40)? We do a horrible job of explaining players who have opted out of the Alamo Bowl. We're probably delirious at this point (1:53:00). We read a comment from a long time listener who has a few hot takes about the recent shake up at Oklahoma (1:55:30). Grant tells us which Bowl games he's interested in. He thinks Cincinnati has a shot to beat Alabama (2:05:20). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

In the opening take, Grant talks about how he spent the whole weekend watching games from OU's 1985 season. Then Lee joins to provide an update on what to expect from the next couple of episodes. Lee shares what he saw at practice Tuesday morning and we try to figure out how and why college football players these days are allowed to cut up their practice pants (9:00). More practice thoughts from Lee including his thoughts on Austin Stogner, Jaden Haselwood, and Mike Woods (13:45). The Sooners scrimmage Sunday night and Lincoln Riley tells us all about it (18:20). Riley said something about the offensive line that got Lee's attention -- so we dissect every word of it because this is an OU Football podcast. Also, everyone loves Perrion Winfrey (24:40). Danny Stutsman time. Let's hear what Brian Odom has to say about the true freshman (35:05). How quickly is Tre Bradford going to be able to contribute at RB? And DeMarco Murray calls Creed Humphrey the 3rd most athletic offensive lineman he's ever seen (39:00). Roy Manning provided a humorous update on Justin Harrington which leads to Grant questioning the honesty of the OU coaching staff. Who are the corners that are going to play this fall (42:25)? Why is Harrington playing corner when there seems to be more of a depth concern at safety (49:25)? Going to the "West of Everest" Facebook Page to talk about OU losing a recent commitment. Grant's got this one (57:00). Will Jalen Redmond start? And brief discussions about the secondary that we will expand on next show (1:03:00). Finally, we take a look at OU being No. 2 in the AP Poll and "The Athletic" puts out a comical preseason All-American team (1:08:15). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

No opening take today, so the guys immediately jump into the things that have happened around OU football that's caught our attention since the last episode. First up: the hype train for Eric Gray has left the station, just listen to DeMarco Murray (2:15). Lee criticizes Eric Gray's former offensive coordinator Jim Chaney, which Grant jumps in to defend Chaney's old Georgia offense (13:05). DeMarco Murray said Eric Gray and Mikey Henderson are the best pass catching running backs this spring (17:20). Jadon Haselwood and the wide receivers are quite aware that they dropped a lot of touchdowns in 2020. Also Trejan Bridges loves practice now (23:00). The wide receiver room looks a little different in 2021, and would you take the 2019 OU offense or the 2020 OU offense (33:35)? After the 5-star WR trio had mostly limited roles in 2019, will incoming freshman 5-star WR Mario Williams actually flash and contribute more than any of those players from the 2019 class (36:50)? Grant brings up Wanya Morris, and also what's the deal with Austin Stogner (42:40)? Brian Odom recently went down the list of every player in his linebacker room. Should we read into the order in which he listed the players (47:35)? Should we be getting ready for the Shane Whitter breakout year (54:40)? Okay this freshman class has been talked up so much that Lee wonders if these are the best football players who have ever played football (59:30)? Roy Manning let us know that Woodi Washington has been limited this spring and has not practiced much. Plus Nik Bonitto loves football more than you do. Probably (1:07:50). Lee provides a brief update on his OU DB 2020 rewatch (1:15:20). Finally, Grant's got an outside the box take on OU hiring Porter Moser (1:21:00).

Sooners hire former Loyola-Chicago University head coach Porter Moser as there new men's hoops head coach. We talk about the press conference and how we feel Moser will fit in at Oklahoma. We also talk about how Moser will finish his staff out and how he will work to convince De'Vion Harmon and Brady Manek to return while getting the roster filled with new 2021 commits, holding onto commits like CJ Noland and Bijan Cortes. Sooners landed Alston Mason the day Moser held his presser, too. OUinsider staffers Brandon Drumm, Collin Kennedy, and Parker Thune talk about what that means for OU and where things stand with the transfer portal market. The OUinsider staff then talks about spring ball and what has stood out most to them, along with OU football coaching post-practice pressers and players post=practice pressers. We talk about OU wide receiver unit and running back unit as Trejan Bridges and Jadon Haselwood talked with the OU beat. So did RB coach Demarco Murray and RB transfer Eric Gray. OUinsider staff talk about their thoughts on the RB unit and more. We also talk with linebackers as LB coach Brian Odom and LBs Caleb Kelly and Marcus Stipling. They spoke with the Sooners beat writers and we also talked with DL Jalen Redmond after his return from opting out in the 2020 season. There is high hopes for Redmond in 2021, so we got to talk about expectations there and more. Finally, we end the podcast talking about OUinsider analyst travels as we go to see several of the Sooners top targets. Collin Kennedy has been around several big name players in Texas, while Parker Thune was in Iowa and Nebraska seeing the top midwest region OU targets and talking with them about where things stand. New OU 2023 target Bai Jobe put on a show during Durant (OK) C4 Performance 7v7 tourney and then Brandon Drumm discusses his travels in Florida, as well as where things stand with five-star DL Gabriel Brownlow-Dindy.

Go inside the Inside Linebackers room with Brian Odom

We're told that God is powerful, but as we age, most of us are flummoxed or frustrated with how to think about that, because clearly that power quite often does not bring about things that are important to us. Dave Schmelzer--inviting us into a perspective from a new, occasional Journey On offering--details how Jesus (followed by Gandhi, among others) helps us experience what our very encouraging, if unexpected power actually is.

Chapter 1

This week marks the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing. In all, just 12 people have set foot on the lunar surface. Gene Cernan (PRON: Sir-nan) was the most recent person to do so, back in 1972. But humans will be travelling back there within a number of years. Brian Odom, historian at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center, spoke to Mike Smyth on the Simi Sara Show on Monday. He also spoke about the historical significance of the 1969 event. Guest: Brian Odom Historian at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center

In this first of a series of special episodes commemorating the 50th anniversary of man landing on the moon, Mat speaks with NASA historian Brian Odom about the Apollo space program, its achievements and failures and its lasting legacy.

NASA Historian Brian Odom helps us set the stage, starting from Kennedy's pledge to Congress as he doubles down to beat the Russians. Odom talks about the team's problem-solving approach, the audacity of the "all up" philosophy, and the impact of domestic immigration on Huntsville Alabama.

Brian Odom talks about the "full stop" 20-month investigation after Apollo 1 fire and its impacts. He reviews the Jupiter-C vehicle and Redstone missile programs, Nixon's undelivered speech in case Apollo 11 failed, and Huntsville's role in solving the next set of hard problems.

The gang has been hitting the road for spring football practices and this episode focuses on the latest going on in the recruiting game for the Sooners. We touch a little bit on the James Gallogly situation and have a few tangents, but this is another hardcore recruiting edition of the Unofficial 40. We go deep into Alex Grinch and Brian Odom and their evaluations moving forward. We also really dive into the future of the defensive line recruiting. This one is for you recruitniks!

In the opening take, Grant says OU may be on to something here with playing the Spring Game under the lights. Then Lee joins to talk about the fallout from Caleb Kelly's serious injury and what Lincoln Riley is saying about what's next (6:00). DaShaun White is the next man up, plus Grant thinks Brian Odom is hinting that only a few ILBs have a legitimate shot to play now (8:50). We learned this week that Kenneth Murray is having a great spring, but does that mean anything given his history (14:35)? We get into our featured Spring Game discussion by taking a look at the format and rosters. Apparently a handful of meaningful players are out (18:50). OU has some big time honorary coaches coming to Norman for this game (25:00). Lee asked Lincoln Riley how much emphasis he puts on the Spring Game compared to other scrimmages (26:40)? Alex Grinch doesn't expect to be able to take a whole lot away from Friday's game (29:00). Grant was thrilled to hear OU's DBs have been pressing all the time during spring practice, but does that mean we're going to see that philosophy during the regular season (31:45)? Grant wants to watch the defense's alignment closely Friday night while Lee is hoping the defense wins the scrimmage (37:25). Let's go back to DaShaun White. We talked to him this week and he lets us know the fans should expect to see a pretty big change in the OU defense Friday (41:40). Tanner Mordecai is allegedly quite fast (45:00) and then we spend a healthy amount of time making fun of Drew Lock, John Elway, and the Denver Broncos (45:50). We turn our attention back to OU and talk about the O-Line. Lee announces the two offensive line units he saw at practice last week (53:10). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

On this episode of the Public Radio Hour.

In the opening take, Lee explains his current mindset when assessing OU's defense. Then the guys briefly touch on what's been a pretty negative week (5:00) before jumping back to maybe the most overrated "iconic play" in football history (6:20). The Sooners scrimmaged for the first time this week, and Grant thinks the defense may be in trouble (8:00). Caleb Kelly has reportedly torn his ACL and Grant is bummed out (12:15). Does this injury make it easy to predict who'll play the inside LB roles this Fall (17:00)? New ILB coach Brian Odom is trying to make it clear what's expected out of linebackers at OU (19:00). Jordan Kelley also sustained a bad injury (22:00), and LaRon Stokes got pretty high praise from Lincoln Riley this week (23:40). Alex Grinch reiterated that he thinks Neville Gallimore can be elite (25:20). Grinch says a pair of inexperienced players would be the starting safeties if OU played a game tomorrow (27:30). Grinch tells us who's been playing Nickel, which has Grant pretty confused (31:15). Lee got a chance to ask Grinch what kind of player he looks for at the Nickel position? And Grant provides his solution for the Nickel spot (36:20). Grinch had a good news/bad news assessment of Tre Brown's performance so far (40:45). We get to the bottom of what Tre Brown thinks being a "physical" corner means (44:05). OU's defensive players do their best to stay out of the sand pit at 5am (46:15) and candy bars are popular at practice (48:20). The secondary was terrible last year and it sounds like they're reminded of that constantly (54:05). Lee asked Riley about Jalen Hurts' ability as a runner (57:45). OU's offensive line may be young and inexperienced, but it sounds like they're nasty (1:03:05). Jadon Haselwood was in a boot on Monday, but it sounds like he's fine. Plus all the young 5-star WRs are getting rave reviews (1:09:50). Charleston Rambo is really fast, and the guys try to figure out what Tre Brown was trying to say (1:11:40). It's safe to say everybody is pumped about the H-Back position (1:13:20). Grant REALLY wants to talk about the perceived QB battle (1:17:25). Hey, we know who's competing to replace Austin Seibert (1:24:55). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

Episode 53 • Jeremiah Tilmon has played about 30 minutes in each of the Missouri men's basketball team's past three games combined. That's not going to cut it. How do the Tigers keep their foul-prone sophomore center on the court? In this edition of the Eye on the Tigers podcast, sports columnist Ben Frederickson and Mizzou beat writer Dave Matter dive into Tilmon's foul trouble, and how to fix and/or work around it. After the conversation switches to football, the two share their understanding of linebacker coach Brian Odom, Barry's brother, departing for the same job at Oklahoma.​ Jeff Thomas and Albert O. also come up.

**NOTE: This episode was recorded before the Brian Odom and Roy Manning news broke Tuesday night.** In the opening take, Lee really thought there was a chance Kyler Murray could come back to OU for one more season. Then Grant joins to explain why the past week's talk about Kyler Murray frustrated him (7:00). Murray's not going to play baseball right now because he's going to end up being a first round pick in the NFL Draft (11:45). Murray would make so much more money in the NFL right now compared to his A's signing bonus (16:30). Tim Kish and Kerry Cooks are out. We talk Brian Odom -- although we recorded this before his hiring was made official (19:05). We recorded before the news broke that Roy Manning was hired as cornerbacks coach (26:15). Grant is incredibly intrigued by the Sooners QB situation with Austin Kendall entering the transfer portal and Jalen Hurts rumored to come to OU (28:10). Lee doesn't think Lincoln Riley would make a decision that puts OU's QB situation in a mess (30:30). Is Tanner Mordecai better than Austin Kendall (33:10)? Grant lays out why it makes a bunch of sense for Jalen Hurts to join OU's program (35:40). Are we sure Hurts is a good quarterback (38:10)? Lee's got a good feeling about Hurts' chances of coming to OU (43:50). Both guys were dead wrong about the National Championship game, but let's be honest the way that game played out was a fluke, right (47:10)? Clemson's kill shot TD was incredibly lucky and Grant's super annoyed nobody has pointed that out (53:35). We look back at our 2018 season predictions and find out what we got right, and what we got wrong sprinkling in soundbites from some of our best and worst takes (55:15). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9
