The Detroit Lions clarified their center plan: Juice Scruggs returned to first-team work and Tate Ratledge took center reps, setting Scruggs on the Week 1 path while Detroit stress-tests depth. In a rain-soaked session after the Cincinnati preseason opener, coaches rotated interior linemen to lock in trusted combinations ahead of the NFL regular season. Did the Detroit Lions clarify who starts at center in Week 1? Yes. Juice Scruggs is tracking as the starting center, and Detroit cross-trained Tate Ratledge at center with the starters while keeping Seth McLaughlin in a reserve lane. As Jeff Risdon noted, Scruggs has NFL pivot experience and projects as the player snapping the ball to Jared Goff in Week 1. When Juice Scruggs worked at center, Tate Ratledge played right guard and Christian Mahogany played left guard. When Scruggs sat, Ratledge slid inside to center, Ben Bartch came in at left guard and Mahogany moved to right guard. McLaughlin did not run with the first team in those center looks. The staff even evaluated wet-ball snapping in the rain to prepare for outdoor games. Dan Campbell previously praised McLaughlin's effort while acknowledging his smaller build, reinforcing the view of him as a dependable backup. What roster moves and signings changed the bottom of the depth chart? Detroit waived with injury designation running back Kai Robichaux and safety Law Strickland, both hurt against the Cincinnati Bengals, and both will revert to injured reserve after waivers. Dan Campbell said Kai Robichaux broke his foot, and Law Strickland suffered a non-contact lower-leg injury. The Lions added running back Trayveon Williams and cornerback Ekow Boye-Doe. Trayveon Williams, a 2019 sixth-round pick out of Texas A&M, is a compact inside runner. Jeff Risdon noted he has 72 carries for 343 yards across seven seasons and one qualifying season as a kick returner with a poor average as a rookie, so returns are not a selling point. Ekow Boye-Doe, a Kansas State product who has spent most of his time on NFL practice squads and was in the DC Defenders camp, brings legit speed but is undersized and faces long odds after a rough first day in Allen Park. Who popped in Sunday's rain practice? Aidan Hutchinson dominated, including blowing up a screen, a timely reminder of his game-wrecking impact. Second-round pass rusher Derek Moore returned and posted a sack in team work, flashing the length and range that set him apart from Detroit's power-first edge depth. Isaac TeSlaa delivered the catch of the day in red zone, going up over coverage for a touchdown and spiking in celebration, as relayed from practice reports. Cornerback Khalil Dorsey showcased high-end ball skills with a full-extension, one-handed attempt downfield, the kind of playmaking that fuels his roster case on defense and special teams. How are the fringe jobs shaking out at WR, TE, OL and OT? Tay Martin earned first-team reps with an opening at wide receiver and continues to draw praise from Dan Campbell for his camp and special teams work, pushing into the roster conversation. Tight end Jackson Meeks, converting from wide receiver, returned and must win via special teams in a crowded room. Tackle depth got a boost with Devin Cochran back at practice after an early-week knock. The staff is maximizing versatility while Cade Mays remains out until at least early October. Dan Campbell set the standard plainly: “We do not have time to waste... we have to be able to trust you. You have to be dependable, coachable, and a competitor.” Detroit is rewarding competitors who stack dependable reps, exactly what Sunday's wet-weather practice was designed to reveal. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #juicescruggs #tateratledge #christianmahogany #sethmclaughlin #benbartch #jaredgoff #dancampbell #aidanhutchinson #isaacteslaa #taymartin #khalildorsey #ekowboye-doe #kairobichaux #lawstrickland #cincinnatibengals Learn more about your ad choices.

Texas Tech enters 2026 as the clear favorite to control the new Big 12, but the quarterback change from the original Brendan Sorsby plan to Will Hammond creates one major question for an otherwise loaded roster.Gary breaks down all 16 Big 12 teams, beginning with a championship tier featuring Texas Tech, BYU, Utah and Kansas State. BYU brings the safest combination of quarterback stability, offensive-line experience and defensive maturity. Utah returns explosive quarterback Devon Dampier but must replace its coaching leadership and entire starting offensive line. Kansas State may own the conference's cleanest path under new head coach Collin Klein.The dark-horse discussion includes Houston, Arizona, TCU and a completely rebuilt Oklahoma State program that imported Eric Morris, Drew Mestemaker and much of North Texas' explosive offense. The remaining tiers cover UCF's quarterback upgrade, DJ Lagway's arrival at Baylor, Arizona State's massive personnel losses, Iowa State's teardown and Colorado's latest roster reset.The episode also examines the Big 12's dramatically uneven schedules, the conference's top quarterbacks and units, championship odds, win totals and potential regression candidates.Final picks include Texas Tech over BYU in the Big 12 Championship, Kansas State as the best title value, Oklahoma State as the favorite long shot, Kansas State 7.5 wins and Cincinnati 5.5.

In this episode, Dan and Lauren are joined by the three co-editors of the newest New Directions for Student Leadership issue: Dr. Kerry Priest, Professor and Director of Leadership Studies at the Staley School of Leadership at Kansas State University; returning guest Dr. Jason Headrick, Associate Professor of Leadership and Community Development at Texas Tech University; and Dr. Haley Traini, Associate Professor of Leadership Education at Oregon State University. Together they co-edited NDSL #188: Leadership Learning for Systems Thinking and Practice — the 20th episode in the TLE–NDSL partnership series. Kerry, Jason, and Haley trace the issue's origins from a 2023 keynote by Mary Uhl-Bien in Copenhagen to a call for submissions deliberately open to stories, case studies, and reflections. They walk through the three questions that structure the issue — how we develop systems capacities, how we teach them, and how we evaluate systems-level change — along with tools like Human Systems Dynamics and its "what, so what, now what" adaptive-action cycle. The conversation is full of classroom-ready metaphors, from tracing how ice gets made to why an iPhone is merely complicated while mayonnaise is truly complex. As Kerry reminds us, in systems work the goal isn't winning or losing — it's staying in the game.   Resources and works mentioned in this episode include: New Directions for Student Leadership, Issue #188: Leadership Learning for Systems Thinking and Practice Human Systems Dynamics Global, co-founded by Glenda Eoyang and Royce Holladay 21st International Studying Leadership Conference, Copenhagen Business School, December 2023 Complexity Leadership: Insights on Adaptability from Professor Mary Uhl-Bien Kahneman, D.

Jacob and Daniel turn their attention to the Big 12, the conference with the most parity in college football outside of Texas Tech. They kick things off with the top storylines heading into 2026, including the Will Hammond situation at Texas Tech, BYU's case as a legitimate national contender, what to expect from Oklahoma State in their rebuild year, Rich Rod at West Virginia, Utah's shot at a big season, and Kansas State quietly setting up for a special year. They also debate who the best quarterback in the Big 12 is before hitting over/unders on all 16 teams. The episode wraps with best bets, a conference championship pick, and a dark horse to watch.Follow Daniel on X: https://x.com/DeepSouthDanielFollow Jacob on X: https://x.com/jacobkarnesSubscribe to The Extra Point on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCalGwyunlQPiiEfiAiZPx9QFollow the show on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theextrapointpod/Follow and Subscribe to The Extra Point on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, or wherever you get your podcasts.Website: theextrapointpod.com Chapters:00:00 - Intro & Big 12 Overview02:00 - Texas Tech: Will Hammond and the Big 12 Title Defense12:00 - BYU: Legit National Contender20:00 - Oklahoma State: Rebuild Year27:00 - West Virginia: Rich Rod Is Back33:00 - Utah: Quietly Dangerous40:00 - Kansas State: Year of the Wildcats48:00 - Best QB in the Big 1255:00 - Win Total Picks01:10:00 - Best Bets01:13:00 - Big 12 Championship Picks & Dark Horse01:18:00 - Final Thoughts & Big Ten Preview Teaser

Jake Brend and Derek Duke continue their 2026 Big 12 football preview series by breaking down Cincinnati, TCU, and Kansas State while reacting to the latest developments from Big Ten Media Days. The guys discuss the growing partnership between the Big Ten and SEC, the future of conference championships, and what it all means for the Big 12. Plus, their favorite things to do during a 100-degree Iowa summer.

Greg McElroy breaks down the ‘tiers' in the BIG 12 with four CFP contenders but is there a legit National Championship contender in the conference? How will Texas Tech handle the bullseye on their back? Is BYU in the BIG 12 “championship or bust” mentality? Can Houston improve their win total again and what can we expect from the fresh start in Utah? Can TCU, Kansas State, Arizona State and Oklahoma State be more than spoilers? How will Coach Prime and Colorado look, plus are bounce back seasons in line for Baylor, UCF and Kansas? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In this episode, we continue our 2026 Big 12 preview with the first full batch of team-by-team breakdowns. Texas Tech enters as the reigning conference champion and apparent favorite, but the strange offseason surrounding Brendan Sorsby and Will Hammond has made its path back to the College Football Playoff more complicated than it first appeared. We examine whether the Red Raiders can turn one dominant season into a repeatable model, and whether BYU has enough offensive growth and defensive muscle to finally close the gap. From there, we move into the conference’s crowded and unpredictable middle. What will Kansas State look like with Collin Klein returning to lead the program? Can Dave Aranda and new defensive coordinator Joe Klanderman bring order to the chaos at Baylor before time runs out? We also consider whether Andy Kotelnicki can revive the Kansas offense, whether Brennan Marion’s Go-Go system is the answer for Colorado, and how quickly new regimes at West Virginia and Iowa State can start showing meaningful progress. Plus, we discuss the booming transfer market for competent offensive linemen, the college football equivalent of a veteran left-handed relief pitcher, several dangerous schedule sandwiches, and much more.

In this episode, we begin our three-part Big 12 preview by taking a conference-wide look at the contenders, challengers and mystery teams shaping the 2026 season. Texas Tech enters as the defending champion and the clear center of attention, but does the conference’s best roster still have enough at quarterback and on defense to remain on top? We also examine why BYU feels like the safest alternative and whether Houston is ready to turn last year’s breakthrough into something even bigger. From there, we sort all 16 teams into tiers and work through a crowded middle class that may be deeper than either of us expected. How much should Utah’s infrastructure matter after major changes on the sideline and along both lines of scrimmage? Can Arizona, TCU or Kansas State stay in the championship race? Are we falling too hard for Oklahoma State’s potential, and how much faith should we place in Kenny Dillingham as Arizona State faces the conference’s most difficult schedule? We also identify the players we are most interested in watching, debate several new quarterback situations and make our early Big 12 Championship Game predictions. Plus, the Monster Energy sponsorship inspires a shady monetization strategy, Willie Fritz becomes the world’s most dependable roofing contractor, and one verbal stumble launches a questionable new Cincinnati business venture.
