Big Shot Bob and the team dive deep into various hot topics in sports. Starting with a heated discussion about Clemson’s Dabo Swinney calling out other teams for tampering with his players, Big Shot Bob contends that while Dabo has a point, the NCAA’s lack of rules makes it a lawless environment. The conversation shifts to the adverse effects of the transfer portal on high school athletes' recruitment, emphasizing how the portal's existence has complicated the traditional process of getting into college sports. The episode also covers Deion Sanders' new rules at Colorado, where he implements monetary penalties for player infractions, igniting a debate on the fairness and feasibility of such fines for college athletes who may not be making significant NIL money. The hosts argue whether it’s a fair method of discipline or if it could potentially push players to transfer out. Additionally, the notion of potential trades for college players surfaces, with the crew discussing the complexities and unlikely feasibility of such trades given the current state of college athletics. Towards the end, the show explores the longevity of players in the modern NBA, citing how current stars like LeBron James and Stephen Curry continue to excel well into their late 30s and early 40s. The hosts contrast this with older generations, attributing the shift to improved fitness regimes and a more offensively driven game. They wrap up with a light-hearted segment about sentimental items that have stood the test of time, sharing personal stories of cherished belongings, from old clothes to long-lived cars, bringing a humorous and nostalgic close to the episode. 00:00 Introduction and Host Greetings 00:58 Dabo Swinney's Rant on Tampering 01:42 NCAA's Lack of Guardrails 02:32 Accountability in College Sports 03:24 Coaches vs. Players: Double Standards 07:16 Impact of Transfer Portal on High School Recruits 10:18 NIL Deals and Player Fines 14:37 The Future of College Sports: Collective Bargaining and Unionization 15:17 The Concept of Trading College Players 17:04 Aging NBA Stars: Performance and Longevity 19:49 Will We See Another 73-9 Season? 21:15 The Emotional Attachment to Personal Belongings

On this episode of The Group of Five Guys Podcast, The GOFG discuss how College football isn't just changing — it's becoming a full-blown business. We dive into the latest comments from Dabo Swinney and the backlash surrounding NIL, the transfer portal, and whether college football has officially crossed a line. Are coaches pushing back… or just getting left behind? With lawyers now directly involved in roster management, we break down what NIL contracts really mean for players, why eligibility disputes are becoming more common, and what athletes should understand before signing anything. We also look at how teams are using the transfer portal differently, the reality of “instant help” vs. long-term development, and how this new landscape impacts Group of Five players — especially when it comes to exposure, the Senior Bowl, and NFL evaluations. Is transferring actually helping players' draft stock? Are scouts valuing production or competition level more? And what does competitive balance even look like moving forward?

Miami struck out on portal quarterbacks until they got a big fish! Now-former Duke QB Darian Mensah is going to be QB1 in the Gables and is bringing his top target, Cooper Barkate. Miami's offense has a chance to be elite. The boys are stoked! The 2026 schedule was released. While the schedule favors Miami being back in the playoffs, it includes three Friday-night games and a Thursday-night game. Why does the ACC continue to poop all over one of its star brands? Dabo Swinney went on a rant about Ole Miss tampering and convincing a Clemson portal player to pick up and move to Oxford. Despite both Cam and The Beast being far from Dabo stans, they agree with him. College football is out of control. Where's the NCAA and Charlie Baker? Also, why do major outlets have Miami in the teens in their way-too-early rankings? It's a slap in the face to a team that just played in the Natty.

Regardless of the time of year, the drama in college football never takes a break. One of the on-going stories that Andy Staples and Ross Dellenger has been following has finally come to a resolution. Darian Mensah and Duke have come to a settlement that allows Mensah to officially be in the portal and transfer to what is presumed to be Miami. Andy and Ross discuss how the sides finally came to a resolution and if the athletes, much like the coaches, should already have preexisting buyouts in their contracts. They also chat about some of the other notable court cases in college athletics as they share updates on Trinidad Chambliss and Charles Bediako's cases.Then, they dive into the big news from over the weekend. During a press conference last Friday, Dabo Swinney called out Pete Golding for tampering. This all started when former Cal linebacker, Luke Ferelli, signed with Clemson and had enrolled in classes. Just before the portal closed, however, he decided to re-enter the portal to sign with Ole Miss after Golding had directly reached out to Ferelli with lucrative NIL offers. The guys discuss if they think anything will happen from Swinney reporting this to the NCAA, and what Swinney's end goal may actually have been. Might a collective bargaining agreement with the players be just around the corner as administrators try to figure out how to police the wild world of college sports?Later, Ross discusses a story he reported this morning. That story is about a potential rule change to targeting for next season. He explains that the way targeting is enforced is being reviewed and may be changed within the next couple of months. The guys discuss their thoughts on the potential shift and if what the best way would be to enforce it.Get caught up on all of your college football news with College Football Enquirer. 0:00:00 - Darian Mensah settles with Duke16:47 - Trinidad Chambliss update19:11 - Charles Bediako update26:44 - Dabo Swinney calls out Pete Golding44:41 - New targeting rules may be coming soon Subscribe to the College Football Enquirer on your favorite podcast app:

Joe breaks down the latest in Miami sports, from the Dolphins' quarterback situation, roster moves, and key contracts—including Tua Tagovailoa, Tyreek Hill, Bradley Chubb, and Minkah Fitzpatrick—to high praise for new GM Jon-Eric Sullivan. He reacts to Dabo Swinney's take on tampering and the chaos of the college football transfer portal, while exploring the Darian Mensah legal settlement that clears the way for him to transfer to Miami. Joe also debates the Heat's trade deadline options with Tyler Herro, Giannis, and other big names, previews the Panthers ahead of the Winter Olympics, and weighs in on weather and home-field advantages in football. Plus, Hollywood's Headlines brings a mix of sports and pop culture, from Coco Gauff's racket smash to LeBron's $1 million card and Paul Pierce's paternity lawsuit
Hour 1 covers why Miami is targeting Duke QB Darian Mensah instead of developing a young quarterback, and how contracts in today's college landscape don't carry much weight. Joe reacts to Dabo Swinney's comments about tampering and the chaos of the transfer portal, saying programs that don't use it are falling behind. The conversation shifts to weather in football and why using it as an excuse is soft, with home-field advantage meaning home conditions. Plus, the Panthers look to build momentum before the Winter Olympics, and with the NBA trade deadline approaching, Joe debates what the Heat should do with Tyler Herro and explores big-name trade possibilities.
Joe reacts to Dabo Swinney's comments blasting the current state of college football and the transfer portal, including his comparison of tampering to having an affair. The conversation centers on how coaches, players, and programs are working around contracts with little to no consequences, and whether anyone can realistically enforce rules in today's landscape. Joe notes that while some coaches are ruthlessly taking advantage of the system, programs that don't use the portal are falling behind. He also points out that, chaotic as it is, at least the money and movement are now out in the open compared to the old under-the-table era.

Dabo Swinney named names. The Clemson coach is blowing the whistle with allegations of tampering by an SEC school. Swinney says he's decided to sic the feeble NCAA on Mississippi coach Pete Golding, after Swinney accused the Rebels coach of tampering to plunder a player off Clemson's roster. Oh, boy. On the one hand, kudos to Swinney for actually naming names. Many coaches bellyache of tampering, but few come with any evidence or firm accusations. Swinney broke the mold. On the other hand, big whoop. Someone might need to inform Swinney that he'd have better luck getting justice from the Keystone Cops than NCAA enforcement. While it's hard to fault Swinney for being frustrated, especially if it all went down like he claims, he better not get his hopes up. In case Swinney hadn't noticed, the NCAA hasn't effectively enforced its rules for many years now. On today's episode, hosts Blake Toppmeyer and John Adams react to Swinney blowing the whistle on Ole Miss and what they expect to come of it. (Hint: Not much.) Before they get to Swinney, the hosts weigh in on USA TODAY's "too early" top 25 rankings for the 2026 season. They highlight some SEC teams that are overrated and a couple that might be underrated. Adams gets sucked into the hype machine for one SEC team, in particular. Toppmeyer is tempted to buy stock in an unranked SEC team with a new coach that's making noise in the transfer portal.
