Grace Ybarra and Galen Clavio are back on CrimsonCast to recap Big Ten Football Media Days, Galen's trip through Chicago and Las Vegas, and the increasingly strange world of college football media season.The episode starts with travel chaos, old minor-league hockey memories, and the surreal overlap of Big Ten Media Days and Lollapalooza in downtown Chicago. That leads naturally into the important question: which Big Ten coaches would fit best — or worst — at a Lolla VIP tent?From there, Grace and Galen dig into the actual football conversation. Curt Cignetti remains the central figure, from his SEC “hype machine” comments to the way he handles media attention without sounding scripted. They talk about why Cignetti has become such a compelling quote machine, how his rise compares to other coaches, and why his presence gives Indiana a unique voice in the Big Ten vs. SEC argument.The second half focuses heavily on Indiana football: the Hoosiers' player representatives at Media Days, the transition from the JMU-era culture carriers to IU-developed leaders, lazy national narratives about the roster, and the skepticism around Josh Hoover replacing Fernando Mendoza. Grace and Galen also discuss Big Ten unity, conference depth, Ohio State and Michigan rivalry comments, Ryan Day's media energy, Purdue expectations, Starbucks orders, and why football season suddenly feels very close.

Join Jim Coyle and Coach Griff for another loaded edition of Indiana Sports Beat Radio as we officially close the book on Big Ten Media Days and turn our attention to the start of fall camp across college football. We'll open the show with Alec Lasley of TheHoosier.com, who joins us for two segments to break down Indiana's biggest takeaways from Big Ten Media Days, Curt Cignetti's message heading into 2026, and the Hoosiers' outlook as preseason camp begins. We'll also discuss Indiana Basketball's foreign tour to Peru, early player evaluations, team chemistry, and what the trip could mean heading into the upcoming season. In the second hour, Zach Osterman of the IndyStar joins us to provide his perspective on Indiana's position within the Big Ten after Media Days. We'll discuss the conference's biggest storylines, preseason expectations, the teams to beat, and why the Hoosiers enter the season with national attention unlike ever before. We'll wrap things up with Bill Bender of The Sporting News as we shift to the national landscape. Topics include the early Heisman Trophy race, conference championship favorites in the Big Ten, SEC, and ACC, College Football Playoff contenders, and the biggest storylines entering preseason camp.

After the Civil War, southern Indiana became home to one of the state's most feared outlaw families.

Listener discretion is advised due to discussions of violence and murder.

Galen Clavio and Scott Caulfield are back for a founders edition of CrimsonCast, with Indiana football recruiting at the center of the conversation.The main topic is Monshun Sales committing to Indiana football, and why the five-star wide receiver choosing the Hoosiers feels historically different.

The conversation also gets into NIL money, why those numbers are hard to know with certainty, and how Indiana appears to be spending strategically rather than chasing recruiting trophies.The final stretch moves to IU basketball, where Galen and Scott talk through cautious optimism around the new roster, the Peru trip, and why fans are still in “show me” mode. They close with World Cup and soccer talk, including Erling Haaland, Manchester City, Jordan Pickford, and what might keep casual fans watching after the tournament ends.Buy "The New Chapter" by Alex Paul and Kal Graybill: https://www.alexpaulphoto.com/store-1/indiana-football-bookBook a table for the event at Joe's on Weed St! https://tinyurl.com/yrvx9vunBuy some CrimsonCast Merch! https://tinyurl.com/ppnp9sxu

Galen Clavio and Trent McGee jump on CrimsonCast for an emergency recruiting episode after Lukas Prock, a 2028 four-star quarterback from New Jersey, commits to Indiana football.The conversation looks at why Prock's commitment feels like another major marker in the Curt Cignetti era. Galen and Trent discuss Prock's arm talent, sophomore production, top-five recruitment, and why Indiana beating out programs like Notre Dame, Michigan, Florida, and Ohio State matters even this early in the process. They also connect the commitment to the recent Monshun Sales news and the growing sense that IU's national championship momentum is finally showing up in high-level recruiting.The episode also gets into Mike Shanahan, Tino Sunseri, quarterback development, the differences between transfer quarterbacks and long-term high school recruits, and what it would mean if Indiana can start building future recruiting classes around elite quarterbacks. Plus: why all of this still feels strange, exciting, and almost unbelievable for longtime Hoosier football fans.

Grace Ybarra and Galen Clavio are back on CrimsonCast for a wide-ranging summer conversation that starts with Indiana football and ends somewhere near Erling Haaland, cowboy boots, and barbecue.They open with the six-month anniversary of Indiana football's national championship, the new IU football photo book, and how strange it still feels for Hoosier fans to live in this new reality. The biggest topic is Monshun Sales, the five-star Lawrence North wide receiver who committed to Indiana and gave Curt Cignetti another massive recruiting win.

Zach Osterman and Mike Niziolek join Galen Clavio on CrimsonCast to talk about their new Indiana football book, Unthinkable to Unstoppable (pre-order link).The conversation digs into why the story of Curt Cignetti and IU football demanded a book, how the project came together after the Hoosiers' historic breakthrough, and what Zach and Mike learned from reporting inside the program. They discuss the meaning of the Ohio State win, the national championship run, the player perspectives that shaped the book, and the way Indiana's fan base became a central character in the story.They also get into Cignetti's process, his roster-building approach, how he manages players, the role of NIL and revenue sharing, the Purdue rivalry, and why this Indiana team may be remembered less as “the next version” of anything and more as the team that proved something everyone thought was impossible.

Brian Smith explores what makes Sales a generational talent, from his rare athletic profile at Indianapolis Lawrence North High School to his potential to change the balance of power in the Big Ten. The discussion points to Indiana's portal-first strategy and asks whether they can amplify high school recruiting while competing financially with powerhouse programs like Ohio State, Michigan, and Notre Dame. The conversation pivots to the next wave of elite quarterback recruits for the 2028 class, spotlighting names like Jayden Wade, Christopher Vargas, Lukas Prock, and Donald Tabron II, and examining the impact of NIL, recruiting politics, and program fit on high school signal-callers. Brian Smith tackles tough questions about commitment, player development, and how teams are recalibrating their approach in a rapidly evolving recruiting landscape.

The Andy Riesmeyer Show Hour 3 (7.8) Andy kicks things off with a comedy inception — doing his impression of Tim Conway Jr. doing his impression of Jay Leno — before diving into “untouchable” stories, those heartfelt works of art made in memory of a lost loved one that you just can’t criticize even if they suck. Crozier proudly reps his lifelong Clippers fandom (complete with the full wardrobe) and is loving that the Lakers are struggling now that LeBron is out of the picture — but we can all agree the Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders can still get it. In wild news, a group of teens in Northern California were caught shooting guns out of a Waymo, but the AI alerted police, the car was remotely disabled with a fake “mechanical issue” excuse, and five officers were waiting when it stopped. Andy, a proud Hoosier who once couldn’t wait to escape Indiana, now watches his hometown rank as one of the best places to live in America 15 years later. And parents online are cheering a fed-up dad who finally snapped and chucked his annoying teenage son’s Nintendo Switch out the car window.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
