Dan Wetzel, Ross Dellenger and SI's Pat Forde break down Bill Belichick's first spring practice as head coach of UNC Football this week. While many college football practices around the country are loud and energetic, Pat reports that Belichick's practice was a quiet, NFL-like, professional atmosphere, likely indicative of the type of program he hopes to build in Chapel Hill. But can Bill really take a mid-level program and make them a college football juggernaut?Dan, Ross & Pat also react to the latest NIL-centric congressional hearing from earlier this week. Little progress was made, and a bill has yet to be introduced, but time is of the essence for college administrators who are desperate to gain control of the ever-changing NIL & revenging sharing landscape.The three also recap the record-breaking 23-run inning from George Mason baseball as they hosted Holy Cross and dive into a Texas lottery scandal in the People's Court. (1:11) Belichick era begins at UNC(23:22) Why did UNC MBB extend Davis?(25:44) Latest NIL congressional hearing(46:03) George Mason scores 23 runs in one inning(54:20) People's Court: Texas lottery scandal Subscribe to the College Football Enquirer on your favorite podcast app:

Dan Wetzel, Ross Dellenger and SI's Pat Forde react to reports that the ACC is nearing a settlement with Clemson & Florida State. Would a change to the conference's revenue distribution satisfy the conference's most restless football teams?

And will other Power conferences look to the ACC's example and base their own revenue sharing on TV performance as well?The trio also debate which college football stadium would be the best location for a ‘lockup' TV show.

Dan Wetzel, Ross Dellenger and SI's Pat Forde look ahead to this week's meeting between the SEC & Big Ten conferences which may change college football as we know it. After only one season of the 12-team College Football Playoff, the SEC & Big Ten conferences have already determined it's time for a change.The conferences are likely to propose a 14 or even 16-team playoff next week that would grant four automatic qualifiers each to the SEC and Big Ten; two each to the ACC and Big 12; and one to the highest-ranked Group of Five champion. Dan, Ross & Pat take a deep dive into all the ways this proposal could alter the college football landscape including the devaluation of conference championship games, non-conference games becoming all but irrelevant, and scheduling disparities that would alienate many conferences.(0:55) SEC & Big Ten meeting to change CFP format(56:30) People's Court: Florida burger brawlSubscribe to the College Football Enquirer on your favorite podcast app:

On today's episode of The College Football Enquirer, Dan Wetzel, Ross Dellenger and SI's Pat Forde take a look back at how Jalen Hurts experiences at Alabama and Oklahoma propelled him to victory in Super Bowl LIX. After being benched in the 2018 National Championship for Tua Tagovailoa, few would have expected him to be named Super Bowl MVP just a handful of years later. However, Hurts rose to the occasion (not unlike a certain QB of legend, Tom Brady) both in college and now in the NFL and led the Philadelphia Eagles in a dominant victory against the Kansas City Chiefs.The trio dive into Texas Tech's transfer portal strategy, which relies heavily on scouting reports from NFL sources, and earned them the no. 2 ranked transfer portal class. Ross shares the latest NIL news update that the power conferences intend to police revenue sharing themselves rather than rely on the NCAA as they have in the past, but it might be a lose-lose situation.To wrap, Dan, Ross & Pat react to former Ohio State coach Jim Tressel being named as Ohio lieutenant governor and ask a truly important question: does one's foot need to be behind the line for a half-court shot to count? (1:15) Jalen Hurts journey from CFB to Super Bowl MVP(24:01) Texas Tech transfer class ranked no. 2(37:03) Power conferences to police revenue sharing(52:04) Jim Tressel named Ohio lieutenant governor(56:54) People's Court: UMass half-court shot Subscribe to the College Football Enquirer on your favorite podcast app:
