Podcast appearances and mentions of Cam Newton

Connor O'Gara and Jim Dunaway are back for Episode 10 of The Connor O'Gara Show, diving into the biggest debates surrounding how we watch — and remember — college football. ESPN is getting rid of its traditional Bottom Line ticker during college football broadcasts. Is that a welcome change, or will fans miss having scores constantly scrolling across the screen? Connor and Jim discuss the rise of YouTube TV's Quad Box, second screens and the reality that most college football fans are watching Saturdays much differently than they did a decade ago. They also debate whether Week Zero is being wasted. Should college football use the opening weekend to showcase marquee matchups and create a massive television event instead of treating it like a soft launch to the season? Then the conversation turns to ESPN's upcoming six-part Nick Saban documentary. Jim, who spent years hosting Saban's weekly show, shares insight into Saban's approach to player psychology and why the series could reveal a fascinating side of the legendary Alabama coach. Plus, which college football stories deserve their own documentary? The guys make the case for an uncensored look at Cam Newton, Auburn and the chaos surrounding the 2010 national championship season, along with the unbelievable rise and fall surrounding Ed Orgeron and LSU's historic 2019 championship team. Topics include: • ESPN eliminating the Bottom Line ticker • YouTube TV Quad Box and multi-screen football Saturdays • How college football viewing habits have changed • Why Week Zero needs bigger games • Nick Saban's upcoming ESPN documentary • Jim Dunaway's experiences covering Nick Saban • Cam Newton and Auburn's controversial 2010 season • Ed Orgeron and LSU's legendary 2019 championship run If you love college football, SEC football, Alabama, Auburn, LSU and the stories behind the sport, hit the like button, subscribe and join us for more episodes of The Connor O'Gara Show.

Cam Cooksey splits episode 64 into two halves: an hour of Trump Truth Social posts on YouTube, then an hour off platform digging into a Cam Newton and Steve Smith conversation about triggers and mental health (don't worry, he promises it's not sports talk). The first hour is Trump in his bag. Cam covers the Supreme Court greenlighting the White House ballroom complex (which he suspects was quietly underway already), a savage post roasting Tucker Carlson, Thomas Massie, and Marjorie Taylor Greene, the official Trump Vance midterm rally news, and a reminder that America now escorts ships through a fully controlled Strait of Hormuz. His recurring theme: this is a fifth generation fight with only two endings, and God wins either way. The second hour turns reflective, using the Newton and Smith clips to talk through triggers, rest, and recovery with viewers. Hold on for that sunrise.

We win national championships and commit crimes, we are now an SEC program. Michigan has a good dude in Kyle Whittingham now, though! Everyone deserves a freshly showered Brian Cook. What's your excitement level going into this season? It's nice that there are adults in charge now. Some of the things that felt 'off' last season make more sense. There aren't many players on offense this year who you wouldn't project to come back next year, it's a big building year. We're in 2015 mode right now. They actually imported an entire wide receiver room. It feels like Bryce lost a year of development but at least he goes into this year knowing what to expect. The strength and conditioning should be greatly improved, it's telling when coaches leave somewhere and end up at a worse program.  2. Quarterback and Running Back Starts at 25:15 It felt like last year was a lost cause. Pass protection wasn't good enough because the line was super young, the wide receivers were... not sufficient enough. Tyler Huntley in his second year at Utah ran probably three times as much as Bryce, he's still in the NFL with the Ravens. The potential is still there but it feels like he's still a freshman. They ran Bryce like you would run John Navarre, thinking nobody will expect this! This year it will be a team that runs the quarterback. This is the most talent Kyle Whittingham's staff has ever had, they come from a college background and should be excited to execute with it. Bryce struggled passing last year but he was thrown into a bad situation with his receivers. Do you think Bryce will have fewer pass attempts this season? Physically Bryce is everything you could ask for, he just needs to get there mentally. He hasn't been golfing this offseason. Progress is not linear, he might not look great early but hope for him to get slowly better over the course of the season and have a watershed moment by mid-season. Some QBs you can tell just aren't happening in the spring game, but Tommy Carr was happening. Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi is here but did not enroll for spring, he's a multi-year starter at Colorado State but lost his job. Chase Herbstreit and Brady Smigiel... don't exist right now. Running back is similar to last year where the one-two punch is among the best in the country and Bryson Kuzdzal is the third guy. This is Jordan Marshall's year and just by the way he talks there's no way he's not going to try and be the best running back in the country. Savion Hiter already looks like the best running back prospect out of high school in many years. Is Kuzdzal the ceiling for an RB3? Any other program who looks at this running back room will look at us and say "shut up". You wouldn't expect meaningful playing time from anyone else.  3. Hot Takes, Wide Receivers, and Tight Ends Starts at 1:14:40 Takes hotter than Ann Arbor during Art Fair. The wide receiver room... exists! Do you remember the last Michigan receiver to have a 1,000 yard season? Some guys just have it, Andrew Marsh has it. Who's the last Michigan receiver to live up to this hype? Nico Collins? They import JJ Buchanan in the way that Devin Funchess was a tight end, he's your jump ball guy. Salesi Moa and Travis Johnson are true freshmen but they're the next two guys being mentioned. Salesi Moa blew everyone away at the Polynesian Bowl, you hope for him to be Michigan's Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Travis Johnson seems to be WR4 but also one of the fastest guys on the team, how much play time can you expect? Jaime Ffrench comes in from Texas, Michigan barely had a receiver room when he committed, he's in a weird situation. Channing Goodwin is getting some chatter again. Who are the jet sweep guys, Moa and Marsh? This is the thinnest tight end room we can remember. There isn't a Colston Loveland type guy but Zack Marshall looked really good last year and has a captain mentality. They say Hogan Hansen is healthy and ready to go but he's been hampered by injury and is probably a bit behind physically. Jalen Hoffman is ready to step up and be that dude as a blocker. Also he can catch the ball! They're talking about freshman Mason Bonner in wide receiver-y ways. Eli Owens (Thump) wants to be Max Bredeson but it's only his 2nd year.  4. Offensive Line Starts at 1:57:36 Brian was despondent when linemen hit the portal in the offseason but they all came back. Jake Guarnera is the center and there's no question about it - that being locked down is so important. Andrew Sprague should also be great, he's the locked in right tackle. It's a good thing when Texas comes for your linemen (as long as you keep them). How good of a pass protector can he be, though? They just imported Jim Harding from Utah, regarded as one of the best offensive line coaches in the country. The offensive line has question marks but they're good question marks. Blake Frazier was the lightest guy on the line but he's put on 20 lbs, he should be improved at left tackle. Babalola's progress is the only reason he's not locked in. There's the "Rhino" role for a 6th offensive lineman so there are positions for everyone. They're hyping up Babalola a lot in practice. The incoming freshmen are great but they're freshmen. Evan Link looks to be your starting left guard, he massively improved at left tackle last year after a rough freshman year but this should be a better suited role for him. There's competition for right guard but not for left guard so he might be a pretty solid option. Right guard is a competition between Brady Norton and Nathan Efobi. People are very high on Ace Hamilton. The offense as a whole has a lot of talent but it's so young, they don't have a senior leader. This team will probably still feel like they're a year away.  MUSIC: "King of the Night"—Rubber Band Gum "Fools"—Drugdealer "Mobile Home"—Jesse Woods “Across 110th Street”—JJ Johnson and his Orchestra

Carl and Mike open the show with some Falcons talk as they share thoughts on what they would like to see in the first preseason game and agree the biggest thing is players, especially rookies, showing they have the ability to make plays while they are on the field. They also discuss Cam Newton's interview with Kyle Pitts and agree the former NFL QB was wrong for his click bait questions to the Falcons tight end in regards to Michael Penix Jr. and Tua Tagovailoa.

Wisconsin Democrats just rejected the socialist who wanted to cancel Thanksgiving and abolish the police. David Crowley, the Milwaukee County executive and late establishment choice, narrowly beat Francesca Hong by just over 3,200 votes out of more than 787,000 cast. Polls had shown the Democratic Socialist of America member leading by double digits heading into Election Day. Hong, who once posted, “Cancel Thanksgiving. Should have done this in 1621,” and declared, “Police exist to uphold white supremacy. Defund then abolish,” had been walking those statements back hard in the final stretch. Critics on both sides warned her past radical comments would hand the governor's mansion to Republicans in November. Even Bernie Sanders and AOC kept their distance. Crowley positioned himself as the moderate alternative, warning that a lot of people were scared of where the party and the country were headed under candidates like Hong. This primary result is another data point in the ongoing fight over how far left the Democratic Party is willing to go — and whether regular voters will tolerate it.

Our American Mama, Teri Netterville, joins us to talk Cam Newton's revelations about NFL players and fake COVID vaccine cards, the human cost of vaccine mandates, and why we're still waiting on apologies from the media figures who vilified people like Aaron Rodgers. We're Digging Deep this week on Massachusetts' new late-term abortion law, then pivot to Seattle, where a mix of socialism and green energy mandates is about to send electric bills up 80% over six years. Plus, Justice Samuel Alito's decision to stay on the Supreme Court, a Bright Spot on Trump savings accounts building wealth for the next generation, a Say What moment courtesy of Hillary Clinton, and a Moment of Whoa from a 13-year-old who spent 300 hours 3D-printing a wheelchair for a little girl he'd never met.

Is Lincoln Riley running out of time at USC? Lance Taylor joins Connor O'Gara for Episode 7 of The Connor O'Gara Show to examine Riley's future, the Trojans' College Football Playoff potential and the enormous pressure surrounding one of college football's most polarizing head coaches. Despite producing elite quarterbacks and winning four Big 12 championships, Lincoln Riley is still searching for his first College Football Playoff victory. Can USC's revamped defense finally help Riley break through? Could the Trojans go 10-2 and earn a spot in the expanded 12-team playoff, or will another disappointing season force USC to confront Riley's massive buyout? Connor and Lance also reveal the national championship teams they rooted against the hardest, including the 2013 Florida State Seminoles, the Cam Newton-led 2010 Auburn Tigers, the controversial 2023 Michigan Wolverines and the 2002 Ohio State Buckeyes. Plus, Connor makes a bold Michigan prediction that would create a nightmare scenario for Ryan Day and Ohio State, while the guys dream up potential playoff matchups involving Alabama, Oregon, USC, Oklahoma, Michigan, Utah, Texas and Texas Tech.

New Footage Of Ryan Clark & Cam Newton Inside ESPN Offices After Their Firing Goes Viral

This week, we kick things off with a recap of Usher and Chris Brown's R&B Tour stop in Charlotte before breaking down the YG vs. The Game Verzuz, streamed live from Los Angeles on Apple Music. We then react to ESPN's major round of talent cuts involving Cam Newton and Ryan Clark and discuss LeBron James officially leaving Los Angeles to join Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey and the Philadelphia 76ers. On the timeline, we get into the viral Crumbl Cookies controversy after employees were filmed doing hair inside a Charlotte-area kitchen, and we unpack the online conversation surrounding Mad Miles Run Club as social media debates whether today's run clubs are becoming more about dating and hookups than running. We also react to Mandii B's controversial comments about marriage and whether some women treat getting married as the accomplishment instead of choosing the right partner. To close things out, we discuss the latest developments in the death of Nolan Wells, including the inconclusive independent autopsy, the family's unanswered questions and the announcement that the case will be presented to a Mississippi grand jury. All that and more on this week's episode. for more,

Dave Rubin of "The Rubin Report" gives a first look at the stories you need to know to start your day, including ICE posting record arrest numbers as the Trump administration accelerates its deportation efforts despite ongoing legal challenges and nationwide injunctions; new polling showing Republicans facing growing headwinds ahead of the midterm elections, with Democrats gaining ground on the economy, immigration, and the generic House ballot; and ESPN sparking backlash after abruptly firing Ryan Clark, Cam Newton and longtime baseball broadcaster Karl Ravech following more than three decades with the network, leaving sports fans questioning the network's leadership and direction; and much more.

ESPN layoffs are a purge — and it's about the Super Bowl, not race. Jason Whitlock breaks down the ESPN purge: Ryan Clark, Cam Newton, and others are pushed out while Stephen A. Smith is de-emphasized as ESPN protects its first Super Bowl. Everyone screaming "racism" is missing it. This was economic. ESPN married the NFL, watched the Jay-Z and Bad Bunny halftime era bleed the ratings, and started cleaning house. From the 2020 George Floyd-inspired surge to today's crackdown, Whitlock connects eight years of dots — and delivers the biblical warning about the golden calf ESPN is betting its soul on. ➢ Show Outline 00:00 - ➢ Follow Our GUESTS https://www.youtube.com/@DreAllDay https://www.youtube.com/@coachjb  https://x.com/SteveKim323 https://x.com/DelanoSquires  ➢ Subscribe to Jason's other channel https://www.youtube.com/JasonWhitlock?sub_confirmation=1 https://www.youtube.com/@JasonWhitlockHarmony?sub_confirmation=1 https://www.youtube.com/@JasonWhitlockBYOG?sub_confirmation=1 https://www.youtube.com/@JasonWhitlockClips?sub_confirmation=1 ➢ Connect with Jason on Social Media:  https://x.com/JasonWhitlock  https://www.instagram.com/realjasonwhitlock/ https://www.facebook.com/jasonwhitlock ➢ Send Jason an Email FearlessBlazeShow@gmail.com ➢ Support The Blaze Visit https://TheBlaze.com.

What happens when pride, money, career setbacks, public accusations, and personal reputation collide? In this audio edition of Mental Man Monday, Izzy Baker is joined by Houston's own DJ Raek around the 17-minute mark for a conversation about men's mental health, entrepreneurship, masculinity, career uncertainty, relationships, accountability, and knowing how to respond when life suddenly changes direction.The episode begins with King Yella saying he would rather struggle financially than return to a traditional 9-to-5 job. Izzy examines both sides of the conversation, questioning when refusing to go backward represents confidence and purpose, and when it becomes pride. For men trying to provide for themselves and their families, the conversation raises a difficult question: should you take whatever job is available, or can returning to something you believe you've outgrown actually distract you from where you're supposed to be going? The conversation then shifts to reports surrounding Cam Newton and ESPN and what losing a major opportunity can do to a man psychologically. Izzy connects career setbacks to embarrassment, financial pressure, identity, entrepreneurship, and the fear that comes with losing something that once felt guaranteed. Instead of treating a closed door as the end, he explores how being laid off can force someone to pivot, build their own platform, develop new income streams, and turn their hustle up.DJ Raek joins the conversation and offers another perspective on Cam Newton's growing personal brand, arguing that sometimes a personality can become bigger than the platform employing them. That opens a deeper discussion about job security, entrepreneurship, building something you own, and why depending entirely on another company for stability can leave you vulnerable when circumstances change. Izzy and DJ Raek also discuss the changing media landscape and what creators can learn from personalities such as Cam Newton and Joe Rogan about consistency, ownership, longevity, and building a platform people intentionally seek out. For anyone pursuing a podcast, business, creative career, or side hustle, the message becomes bigger than getting fired: sometimes losing one opportunity creates the space necessary to build something greater.Finally, the conversation turns toward Stefon Diggs and the public controversy surrounding conflicting allegations, relationships, reputation, and who is actually telling the truth. Izzy and DJ Raek unpack what happens when private situations become public narratives and everyone involved has a different version of events. Beneath the celebrity headlines is a larger mental health conversation about accountability, emotional reactions, protecting your name, and deciding when defending yourself is necessary versus when responding only creates more chaos. Whether you're dealing with unemployment, financial pressure, career transitions, entrepreneurship, relationship drama, public embarrassment, or simply trying to figure out your next move, this episode challenges men to separate pride from purpose and temporary setbacks from permanent defeat. Because sometimes the door closing isn't the problem. The real question is what you build after it closes. Listen.

ESPN fired Ryan Clark. Fired Jemele Hill. Sent Maria Taylor to NBC. They called it housecleaning. I call it the Emancipation Proclamation. For years, ESPN conscripted talent into the service of wokeism and DEI — and called it journalism. Today, the Worldwide Leader is conceding the culture war it started. And I'm here to read the verdict. This is my Gettysburg Address. The civil war for the soul of sports media is over. Common sense won. Jason Whitlock breaks down ESPN's retreat from woke ideology, the exits of Ryan Clark and Cam Newton, and what it means for the future of honest sports commentary. ➢​​Today's Sponsors PreBorn has helped rescue more than 400,000 babies, and every single day, they continue that work by offering mothers something powerful and life-changing: an ultrasound.

Can Alabama football overcome one of the youngest offenses in the country and compete for the 2026 SEC Championship? On this episode of Last Call, former Alabama national championship quarterback Jake Coker joins Mick Gillispie at The Next Round studios to break down the biggest storylines surrounding the 2026 SEC football season. The guys examine BetMGM's SEC Championship odds, with Texas and Georgia listed as the favorites ahead of LSU, Alabama, Texas A&M, Ole Miss, Oklahoma and Tennessee. Is Alabama being overlooked at +850, or are the Crimson Tide's 8.5-win projection and inexperienced offense legitimate reasons for concern? Jake and Mick also evaluate Alabama's quarterback competition between Austin Mack and Keelon Russell. Mack has valuable experience in Kalen DeBoer's system, but Russell possesses the explosive talent and playmaking ability that could completely change the Crimson Tide offense. Who should be Alabama's QB1, and could Russell become a legitimate Heisman Trophy contender? The conversation also covers:
