Connor and LT dive into the Brendan Sorsby gambling situation and why Texas Tech has found itself in the middle of a major PR storm. Is the school backing Sorsby because of loyalty — or because he represents a massive NIL investment? LT also opens up about his past as a college bookmaker, why he eventually walked away from the business, and how the modern NIL era has completely changed the conversation around college athletes and gambling. Plus, Connor and LT swap unbelievable run-ins with authority — from a college house party SWAT raid to LT being detained by the DEA after a Burger King parking lot drug deal gone wrong. The guys also hit on:

Galen Clavio opens CrimsonCast's 2026 Indiana football positional preview series with the most important offensive position on the field: quarterback.This episode focuses on Josh Hoover, the TCU transfer stepping into the spotlight after Fernando Mendoza's Heisman-winning national championship season. Galen compares Hoover's statistical profile with Mendoza's pre-IU numbers, explains why the turnover concerns around Hoover may be overstated, and looks at how his experience, processing, quick release, and RPO background could fit inside Curt Cignetti and Mike Shanahan's offense.The episode also covers how Hoover stacks up against other major college quarterbacks, what his NFL Draft scouting profile says about his strengths and weaknesses, and how the backup picture could develop with Grant Wilson and Tyler Cherry.

Aaron Torres and Jason Martin start off the show reacting to the Knicks 13th straight win in the NBA playoffs and why they should be considered in "all-time team" conversations if they finish off the sweep. The guys then get into the FIFA World Cup, Myles Garrett being traded to the Rams and whether that makes them Super Bowl favorites, and the AJ Brown trade. Aaron then compares the Knicks to the 2017 Golden State Warriors before the guys discuss Nick Saban, Curt Cignetti, and how the scope of College Football has changed since Saban left coaching.

Indiana football's national title glow keeps getting stranger — and bigger — as Curt Cignetti becomes the face of EA Sports College Football. But behind the celebration is a bigger question: how long can NIL donor funding and college sports' current business model really last?On this episode of CrimsonCast, Galen Clavio and Scott Caulfield dig into NIL donor fatigue, why schools keep asking fans for more money, and how college athletics is still trying to operate like something other than the business it has become. Then they shift to Cignetti's video game cover moment, why it matters for Indiana football recruiting and perception, and the surreal experience of seeing IU football treated like a national power. The show wraps with Pacers roster questions, the Zubac trade, the lost draft pick, the Knicks' rise, Jalen Brunson, and what team-building in modern sports might tell us about Indiana football's championship model.Subscribe and follow CrimsonCast for smart, direct conversation on Indiana Hoosiers football, IU basketball, the Pacers, NIL, and the changing world of college sports.

It's June, which means it's time to get into the 2025 JMU football schedule — and we're doing it with a twist. Inspired by the Ringer Fantasy Football Podcast's schedule draft format, Jack and Bennett each draft games off the Dukes' schedule across five categories: - Home Game You'd Most Want to Attend - Home Game Worth Skipping - Road Game Worth Attending - Must-Watch TV Game - Pumpkin Picking Day (the game you skip altogether to build relationship goodwill before championship season) From the Troy rematch under the lights to a 10 PM kick at San Diego State on the CW, we break down every game worth circling on your calendar — and a few you should hand off entirely. Plus: a deep dive into the state of the Sun Belt Conference, why the league's national profile has slipped since JMU joined, what it would take for the Dukes to crack the College Football Playoff conversation, and whether the Sun Belt can still compete for G5 supremacy against a rising American Athletic Conference.

On this episode of the JT Sports Podcast, JT reacts to the College Football 27 cover reveal with Curt Cignetti and Malachi Toney becoming the faces of Dynasty Mode energy in real life, from Indiana's shocking rise into a national football brand to Miami getting its personality back with a local star leading the comeback. JT also explains why Joel Klatt is wrong about Alabama and why the Crimson Tide decline narrative ignores what Kalen DeBoer has already proven, how Alabama is being judged against Nick Saban's ghost, and why Miami should win the ACC with Darian Mensah, Mario Cristobal's recruiting, and a roster that should be too talented for the rest of the conference. Plus, JT breaks down why Florida isn't a sleeper anymore under John Sumrall, why Eric Weddle's criticism of Bryce Underwood may be way too early, how Ohio State still sets the Big Ten standard despite Indiana, Oregon, USC, Michigan, Iowa, and Nebraska trying to close the gap, and why Kentucky could be entering a sleeping giant moment with Will Stein bringing new belief, offensive upside, and real investment to the Wildcats.

In this June Q&A episode, we open up the Verballer mailbag and start looking ahead to preview season with some early college football summer loves. Which teams are we already talking ourselves into before the magazines arrive? Which programs are interesting, dangerous, confusing or just fun enough to pique our interest as the 2026 season gets closer? We also dig into first-time College Football Playoff possibilities, the rising risk of major transfer portal investments, and whether Curt Cignetti’s championship run at Indiana was more impressive than anything Nick Saban or Kirby Smart ever did in a single season. Plus, we talk through what fans of rebuilding teams should actually look for in Year 1, why playoff expansion arguments still feel slippery, and which players or teams are perfect for showing off at a June cookout. And, naturally, the episode eventually drifts into Brendan Fraser playing Dwight Eisenhower in a D-Day weather drama, bad old predictions, Drake Lindsey discourse, Arkansas despair, and Dan’s ongoing effort to make Ty regret his phrasing.

On this episode of the JT Sports Podcast, JT reacts to Texas Tech calling out Steve Sarkisian and Texas after Sark's strength of schedule talk, with Texas Tech offering to help make a Week 1 matchup happen and putting every excuse on the table for the Longhorns. JT also breaks down the Florida-Miami recruiting war as Jon Sumrall has the Gators recruiting aggressively again while Mario Cristobal and the Hurricanes keep building off real national momentum. Alabama's run game goes under the microscope after a rough rushing season, with Adrian Klemm, Daniel Hill, Ezavier Crowell, and Keelon Russell all tied into whether Kalen DeBoer can bring Bama's physical identity back. USC is also back in the conversation as Lincoln Riley's Trojans look bigger, stronger, and more serious in the trenches heading into a Big Ten schedule that includes major tests against Ohio State, Oregon, Indiana, and Notre Dame. Plus, JT reacts to Curt Cignetti's warning about college football's NIL and transfer portal era, why success now feels like a subscription, and how Nick Saban may have seen the sport losing control before everyone else caught up.

Bret Bielema has been in the room 18 times as a head coach in the two biggest conferences in the game.This year, the room was Big Ten spring meetings in Southern California.Head coaches, athletic directors, commissioners, all in the same space, hashing out the future of the game. And what came out of Terranea this year was one the entire sport was anticipating — a playoff expansion debate that isn't slowing down, a new punt rule nobody practiced for, and a conference room full of some of the best coaches in the sport figuring out what comes next.Todd Blackledge and I brought Illinois head coach Bret Bielema on this weeks episode of Y-Option: College Football with Yogi Roth to break it all down, fueled by our founding sponsor 76, keeping you on the GO GO GO so you never miss a beatHere's what stood out:* Coach Bielema wants 24 teams in the playoff — And he has receipts. He was leading a 12-1 Wisconsin team in the BCS era that got left out and that experience never left him. His argument now, is that the sport has changed too much — NIL, revenue share, roster management — for only 12 teams to have a chance at winning it all. * The punt rule landed wrong — Not because it's necessarily a bad rule, but because it showed up after spring ball, with zero preparation time. In 18 years as a head coach, Coach Bielema has never seen something this consequential arrive so late and so unannounced. * The Big Ten room itself is different — He described it with real affection. P.J. Fleck to his right, Matt Rhule to his left, Dan Lanning and Curt Cignetti in the mix. Coaches who are who they are, every single day. And above all, Tony Petitti — a commissioner who communicates before the meeting, not during it. Nobody walks in cold. Nobody gets defensive. That, Coach Bielema says, is what separates this conference right now.Then we turned to Champaign — and what's being built inside that building.48% of his roster is new and for this program to meet its expectations and recent standards they must develop a true connection with one another and that is the focus of this off-season. The way Coach Bielema guides that is what will stand out. On the field, he's as excited about his wide receiver room as he's ever been, his safeties could be among the best in the conference and quarterback Katin Houser heads into fall camp as the guy.But the line that stuck with me didn't come from the coach. It came from Houser himself, during our spring visit.“Around here, the hallways are warm.”Hope you enjoy today's conversation and we are so appreciative of the support as we continue to grow Y-Option.
