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 ‘Overreaction Tuesday' Rich weighs in on Myles Garrett's trade to the Los Angeles Rams, AJ Brown's trade to the New England Patriots, the Washington Commanders, Chicago Bears, Baltimore Ravens, the NBA Finals and Stanley Cup Final. Super Bowl LVI champion/former All-Pro S Eric Weddle tells Rich how Myles Garrett adds immense value to the Rams in the locker room in addition to what he brings on the field, what it would take mentally and physically for Aaron Donald to unretire to play alongside the 2-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year, and refuses to back off his no-holds-barred criticism of Bryce Underwood, saying he hopes the Michigan QB uses it as motivation to prove him wrong.

Eric Weddle Says Bryce Underwood Can't Play QB?! | Buckeye Weekly Podcast (Michigan Monday)On this Michigan Monday episode, Tony Gerdeman and Tom Orr announce they are no longer with Buckeye Huddle and will be moving their coverage to BuckeyeInsiders.com while continuing the show on YouTube and podcast. They then react to former NFL safety Eric Weddle's comments after attending a Michigan spring practice, where Weddle said he didn't think quarterback Bryce Underwood could throw or play the position and suggested the backup might play early. Tony and Tom discuss how unusual and strong the take is based on a single practice, how spring performances can mislead, and why it may reflect more on the speaker than the player. They note Underwood's true freshman struggles and need for development, coaching changes, motivation concerns tied to NIL money, and why it's too early to declare his era over.00:00 Welcome and Setup00:38 Personal News New Home01:26 Weddle Quote Sparks Debate03:14 One Practice Overreaction05:52 Underwood Development Concerns07:58 NIL Motivation and Coaching12:18 Freshman QB Growing Pains16:17 Is The Era Over16:42 Subscribe and Wrap Up
