Podcast appearances and mentions of Dabo Swinney

College Football has seen tampering go crazy with the recent shots Dabo Swinney and Clemson took at Pete Golding and Ole Miss. On Josh Pate’s College Football Show Ep 708 Josh Pate offers up his feelings about what can be done to curtail the issue. What do we think about surprise CFP contenders this season? Could Alex Golesh and Auburn or Matt Campbell and Penn State make a run? Does ESPN owning the entire College Football Playoff help or hurt the sport overall? Josh also takes a look at UGA under Kirby Smart and discusses whether the program is regressing. All that plus the mailbag is open and we take a look at a major winter storm taking aim at the eastern half of the United States.

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.

What if the real secret to an unbreakable mindset isn't motivation, confidence, or talent but preparation done so relentlessly that pressure has nowhere to land? In this mashup episode, I bring together some of the most mentally tough competitors and leaders I've ever sat down with to break down what it truly takes to build a bulletproof mindset before the moment arrives. This is not about hype or temporary motivation. This is about the unseen work that creates certainty when everything is on the line. When preparation becomes your identity, fear loses its grip and pressure turns into fuel. You're going to hear from Andre Ward on what separates champions from contenders when the lights are brightest, and why mental toughness is earned long before the first bell rings. Sean Casey shares how consistency and routine create confidence in moments when self doubt tries to creep in. Dabo Swinney breaks down how preparation builds belief not just in yourself, but in your team, your system, and your mission. You'll also hear from Michael Chandler, who explains how he trains his mind to stay calm in chaos and perform at his highest level under extreme pressure. Terrell Owens opens up about the discipline, focus, and self trust required to thrive when expectations are massive and criticism is loud. And Ryan Hawk brings it all together with insights on how elite performers prepare daily so confidence becomes automatic, not situational. I want you to understand something. Confidence is not something you wait for. It is something you manufacture through preparation. When you know you have done the work, your mind becomes steady, your decisions become clearer, and your performance becomes inevitable. This episode will challenge you to raise your standard for preparation so high that doubt simply cannot survive in your presence. This mashup is for anyone who wants to stop hoping they will show up strong and start knowing they will. If you want a mindset that does not crack under pressure, this is your blueprint. Key Takeaways: Why preparation is the true source of confidence and mental toughness How elite performers train their minds long before the moment matters The role of discipline and routine in eliminating fear and hesitation How belief is built through reps, not positive thinking Why pressure exposes preparation, it does not create performance How to build certainty that travels with you into every arena of life If you want to perform at your best when it counts most, this episode will show you how to prepare like it already matters. ⁠

RUNDOWN   Mitch and Hotshot break down the massive Seahawks–49ers matchup, laying out the stark difference between winning the NFC's top seed versus entering the playoffs as a road-bound wild card. They debate San Francisco's battered defense, Seattle's dominant defense, and whether Sam Darnold can rediscover the early-season form that once put him in MVP conversations—especially after scoring just 18 total first-half points over the last four games. Mitch floats a classic emotional hedge: bet the 49ers money-line so a Seahawks win feels priceless and a loss at least comes with consolation cash. Mitch and Brady Henderson break down Seattle's 27–10 win over Carolina, praising another elite defensive performance while sounding alarms about the offense's habit of slow starts and turnovers, with just 18 first-half points over the last four games. They preview Saturday night's NFC West showdown in Santa Clara, weighing a battered 49ers defense against Brock Purdy's red-hot offense and debating which version of Sam Darnold shows up. The segment closes with Taco Time honors for DeMarcus Lawrence and Zach Charbonnet, as Seattle stands one win away from the NFC's No. 1 seed and a first-round bye. Rick Neuheisel joins Mitch for a wide-ranging College Football Playoff preview, diagnosing Clemson's 7–6 collapse as the moment NIL and the portal finally "happened" to Dabo Swinney, and reacting with surprise to Kyle Whittingham leaving Utah for Michigan as a potential cleanup hire. Neuheisel breaks down all four CFP games, backing Ohio State to survive Miami, Texas Tech to upset Oregon, Indiana to knock off Alabama, and Ole Miss to take down Georgia. He locks in Ole Miss plus the points as his official pick, staying hot at 8–6 against the spread while handing out Taco Time honors along the way.   GUESTS   Brady Henderson | Seahawks Insider, ESPN Rick Neuheisel | CBS College Football Analyst, Former Head Coach & Rose Bowl Champion   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | High-stakes NFC showdown looms as Seahawks chase the No. 1 seed, debate a hedge bet, and wonder where first-half Sam Darnold went. 3:08 | BEAT THE BOYS - Register at MitchUnfiltered.com 24:07 | GUEST: Seahawks No-Table - Brady Henderson; Seahawks dominate Carolina but face the ultimate test: hot Niners offense, shaky starts, and everything on the line in Santa Clara. 44:24 | GUEST: Rick Neuheisel; College football's new reality hits Clemson, Michigan turns to Kyle Whittingham, and Neuheisel makes his CFP picks with Ole Miss as the hill to die on.

If you want uncommon results, you have to live by uncommon standards, especially on the days you do not feel like showing up. In this mashup episode, I'm bringing together some of the most disciplined competitors and leaders I've ever sat down with to break down what consistency and commitment really look like when the lights are off and no one is clapping. You're going to hear from people who have won at the highest levels of sports, business, leadership, and life, and every one of them shares the same truth. Success is not built in moments. It is built in habits. Troy Aikman takes us inside what it really means to be trusted as a leader when everything is on the line. He shares why the greats are never outworked, how daily preparation creates belief inside a locker room, and why commitment is proven long before game day. Jim Rome brings his trademark intensity and clarity, challenging the excuses we make and exposing why most people talk about wanting it but never back it up with action. His message is simple and uncomfortable. Consistency is not sexy, but it is undefeated. Gerard Adams opens up about discipline in entrepreneurship and why momentum is built by honoring small promises to yourself every single day. Dabo Swinney shares how faith, standards, and consistency shape culture, not just wins, and why who you become matters more than what you achieve. And Mark “The Undertaker” Calaway gives one of the most powerful reminders you will ever hear about longevity, professionalism, and showing up prepared for decades, not seasons. This episode is about doing the work when motivation fades. It is about staying committed when results are slow. And it is about building a life you can count on because you have become someone who can be counted on. If you feel stuck, inconsistent, or frustrated with your progress, this conversation will reset your standards and remind you what winning actually requires. You do not need more inspiration. You need more follow through. This episode will challenge you to raise your standards, lock in your habits, and finally live with the level of commitment your goals demand. Key Takeaways: Why consistency beats talent every single time How elite leaders earn trust through daily preparation The difference between being interested and being committed Why small habits done daily create massive long term momentum How discipline creates confidence even before results show up What it really takes to sustain excellence over decades, not months ⁠

In 2024, Indiana got good at football. In 2025, it got serious as a national championship contender. The Hoosiers enter the Playoff as the best team in the country, and it all comes back to a coach who can best be described as a more modern version of what Dabo Swinney used to be at Clemson.
