We're continuing Season 3 of our Recruit Reflection series with Heather Parker, a redshirt sophomore at Central Michigan University who began her college career at the University of Georgia. One of the top athletes in the class of 2023, Parker suffered an injury during her freshman season that led her to reevaluate her path. She ultimately transferred and found her home at CMU, where she recently wrapped up the season as a Mid-American Conference team champion.Our goal with this series is to bring more transparency to the recruiting process and highlight the variety of paths and outcomes student-athletes experience. With June 15 just around the corner, the class of 2027 will soon be able to speak with college coaches. We hope this series sheds light on the highs and lows of the journey and provides reassurance to those feeling uncertain about what lies ahead. Through these athletes' stories, you'll see that everyone ends up where they're meant to be—regardless of the obstacles they faced. We hope you enjoy this episode featuring Heather Parker.Thank you to our monthly Patreon supporters: Lee B, Cookiemaster, Christa, Happy Girl, Erica S, Semflam, Amy C, Maria L, Becca S, Cathleen R, Faith, Kerry M, M, Derek H, Martin, Sharon B, Randee B, MSU, Kimberly G, Robert H, Lela M, Mara L, Jenna A, Alex M, Mama T, Kelsey, Lidia, Maria P, Alicia O, Cristina K, Bethany J, Diane J, Kentiemac, Marni S, Betny T, Emily C, Cathy D, Lisa T, Libby C, Thiago, Taryn M, Dana B, Jamie S, Chuck C, Je_GL, Kaitlin, Susan P, Katertot, Mallory D, LFC_Hokie, Ella, Debbie, Megan F, Kay, Diane J, Julie B,, Austin K, Jane, Sarah, Amy, Stephen S, Johanna T, Alison S, Kristina T, Abigail W, Becky, Ola S, Jennifer K, Kate M, Naomi S, Claudia, Siona, Erin L, Sarah A, Kennedy B, Thomas B, Lauren D, Kihika N, Beth C, Amy, Renee PM, Ryan V, Brandon H, Tyler, Hayley B, Ben S, Kate & Landon, Danielle, ALittleUnderRotated, Dana C, Amy C, Grace, Pat G , Lexi G, Laura N, Kathy, Katie A, Ruby B, Katie E, Róisín, Becca, Megan J, Emily D, Britton, Ry Shep, Reyna G, Catherine, William A, MB, MJ L, Jackson G, Brittany A, Stella, Ulo F, Noah C, Melissa H, Alexis, William M, Trish, Susie, Leslie G, Catherine B, Karlin, Laura L, Katy S, J'nia G, Kathy M, Kathy S, Okcaro, Caroline P, JD B, Cookiecutter, & Ailish D! 

Chris Creighton, the head Coach of Eastern Michigan University Eagles, joins Larry Blustein to talk about the program as a whole and what he looks for in a football player

“It's almost been ten years and for me it was just kind of time. Contract changes, life changes now with having a two-year-old and wanting to grow the family side of things... A lot of factors all came together at the right time for me to make the decision.”My guest for today's episode is Clayton Murphy, who's been part of American middle-distance running history for the better part of a decade and is now officially hanging up his spikes.From the small town of New Madison, Ohio, to the Olympic podium in Rio — Clayton's career is the stuff of dreams. He was the kid from the Mid-American Conference who took down giants. The collegiate star who doubled up at NCAAs. The 21-year-old who kicked his way to Olympic bronze in the 800 meters — running 1:42.93, still the fifth-fastest time by an American in history.Over the years, Clayton's worn the red, white, and blue across the globe — from the Pan Am Games, where he struck gold, to two Olympic Games, multiple U.S. titles, and countless memorable finishes.But it hasn't always been smooth sailing. He's battled injuries, coaching changes, and the highs and lows that come with being one of the best in a brutal event. And now, after a career that spanned over a decade at the professional level — Clayton is here to reflect on what it meant, how he made peace with the decision, and what's next.SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: Olipop is a prebiotic soda that tastes like a throwback to your favorite childhood drinks, but it's loaded with benefits that your body will thank you for.

Alex and Richard break down offseason happenings in the Mid-American Conference, which saw lots of coach carousel turnover. * Ohio: Tim Albin to Charlotte, OC Brian Smith replacing him * Ball State: An off-the-beaten-path coach hire, bringing on a guy who most recently coached non-scholarship football in the Pioneer League * Miami: It's a Return to the MAC for QB Dequan Finn* Buffalo: Pete Lembo tries to follow up a surprisingly good opening act* Bowling Green: Has an offseason loss of a coach ever looked better than the Falcons winding up with Eddie George? * Western Michigan: Major staff turnover as Lance Taylor tries to fix it * Toledo: Jason Candle has a good roster (as usual) and spicy spring game commentary * NIU: Losing basically everything from last year's team that beat Notre Dame, and also preparing for a conference switch * Akron: A portal exodus * EMU: Ditto, but Chris Creighton is a hard man to count out * Central Michigan: Trying something different with Army's Matt Drinkall as head coach. We applaud the spirit of the hire* Kent State: Well, it's really, really badThe MAC also has some realignment coming for this season, with UMass joining back up. They're not officially Midwesterners again until July, though, so we'll discuss the Minutemen when we check in with the independents. (Ed. note! We recorded most of this episode shortly before the spring transfer portal window opened, but we made a few updates before publication on 4/23, mostly to cover the late-spring firing of Kent State's head coach.)

The College Basketball Experience (@TCEonSGPN) of the Sports Gambling Podcast Network releases their Mid American Conference College Basketball Preview for the 2024-25 season. On the show Colby Dant (@TheColbyD), Ryan McIntyre (@Moneyline_Mac) and Noah Bieniek (@NoahB77_) break down every single MAC basketball team and key in on how they think the conference race will shake out. Last year Toledo won the regular season for a 4th straight year and Akron won the conference tournament. The Rockets lose three starters and return two Freshman starters from last season. Is the squad good enough for Tod Kowalczyk to make a run at Back-to-Back-Back-to-Back-to-Back? Head Coach John Groce hit the Transfer Portal hard in order to keep the Zips near the top of the MAC standings. Will the four high major incomers looking for expanded roles be enough to replace Enrique Freeman, Ali Ali, and company? Ohio returns the most minutes from a season ago in the MAC. Can Jeff Boals and the Bobcats win a banner this year? Kent State had a less than ideal year last season finishing 8th. Coach Rob Senderoff looks to replace 7 of his top 8 scorers from that squad. Could this be a classic case of addition by subtraction? Dant, Mac, and Bieniek finish the Mid American Conference College Basketball Preview with some takes. What are their projected standings at the end of the year? The guys also provide their MAC Basketball sleepers and bust predictions.

What would Frank Solich want to be if he didn't start coaching football in 1966? What two games when he was the coach at Nebraska haunt him the most? You will find answers to these questions on the latest Husker Doc Talk Podcast with Travis Justice and Dr. Rob Zatechka.  Frank Solich had the impossible job of replacing Tom Osborne in 1998. He turned the impossible into possible, winning the Big 12 title in 1999 (he should have won the National Championship) and the Big 12 North Division crowns in 2000 and 2001.  At Nebraska, Solich coached 13 First-Team All-Americans, 28 First-Team All-Conference Players, a Heisman Trophy Winner, and a Campbell Trophy winner (really smart and really good players. Dr. Rob won the Campbell Trophy). That idiot Athletic  Director Steve Pederson fired Solich after the 2003 season. He finished his Nebraska Head Coaching career with a 58-19 record. From 2005 through 2020, Solich coached Ohio University. He is the winningest coach in school and Mid-American Conference history.  Solich was slow to return to Nebraska, as old wounds are hard to heal. But enough time has passed that he was back for the 2023 Spring Game and the Colorado game this season.  Frank will officially be inducted into the College Football Hall-of-Fame in December.  Don't forget, this podcast would not be possible without our sponsors!

The guys from Dawgman.com - Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund - poured through their notebooks to talk about the main storylines after Washington's 30-9 win over Mid-American Conference foe Eastern Michigan Saturday afternoon at Husky Stadium. It was a game that had bogey game written all over it, especially given Northern Illinois' upset of Notre Dame, but Washington handled the Eagles well after the first three drives of the game. For the second-straight week the Huskies did not coming out firing in the first quarter, eventually finding their footing during the second quarter and scoring on five-straight drives after punting on their first three possessions. The guys talked offense first, the slow start, the day had by Will Rogers and Demond Williams getting mixed in at quarterback from time to time, how OC Brennan Carroll devised his offensive line rotations, starting with Zachary Henning as a sixth lineman to take the place of the injured tight end Quentin Moore, as well as the days had the running backs and the receivers. Jonah Coleman had his second 100-yard game in as many weeks, and Jeremiah Hunter finished with five catches after getting skunked against Weber State. Chris had some choice words on the Big Ten officiating crew after that - not so much the subjective calls that were made (despite some being pretty bad), but more about the game management and their mechanics. It was clear Washington's offense was frustrated at times with their delay in spotting the ball, for instance. It was not their best game. After a quick break to pay some bills, the chat turned to the defensive side of the ball, starting with Zach Durfee, who finished the game with five tackles, including 2.5 tackles for loss and 2.5 sacks. Durfee was listed as 'questionable' going into the game, but he spearheaded a UW defensive attack that finished with 7 overall sacks and a forced fumble - the first turnover of the season. Scott gave a quick recruiting update to note the prospects he saw at the game, and then the guys offered up their final thoughts as now the Huskies head into Apple Cup week.

SOUTH BEND — Coming off the biggest win in Marcus Freeman's three years as head coach, Notre Dame football is favorably positioned for a run at the expanded 12-team College Football Playoff. Yes, there's still 11 more regular-season games to play, but Saturday's 23-13 win over No. 20 Texas A&M in front of 107,000-plus at Kyle Field, stands as a benchmark for what this Irish team is capable. So, what's at stake this week when the seventh-ranked Irish (US LBM Coaches Poll) host Northern Illinois of the Mid-American Conference? Pretty simple: Avoid a Marshall repeat (home-opening upset loss in 2022), avoid injuries and keep on improving, especially along the offensive line. South Bend Tribune Notre Dame football beat writers Tom Noie and Mike Berardino, along with WNDU sports director Jackson Neill, unpack the win in College Station and breakdown Saturday's game against the Huskies on this week's Pod of Gold Notre Dame football podcast. Special guest this week is college football recruiting guru Tom Lemming. This week's show was recorded in the studios of news gathering partner WNDU.

With the good comes the bad though, as Lane Kiffin called college athletics a disaster surrounding the transfer portal and NIL. Kiffin described it as free agency and that the biggest buyer gets the best prizes, while noting that Ole Miss has been successful in transfer portal recruiting.Looking ahead to Big Ten media days, Ryan Day is believed to be one of the most interesting figures in college football coming into this season. He has had plenty of success, but losing to Michigan two years in a row has earned some distrust from the Buckeye faithful. The rest of the Big Ten will be very exciting, featuring newcomers Matt Rhule and Luke Fickell joining Nebraska and Wisconsin, respectively. The show wonders how Michigan State head coach Mel Tucker will be received after a very down year for the Spartans.The Pac-12 media day was underwhelming with Deion Sanders not being in attendance due to a surgery. Ross recaps a few of George Kliavkoff's sentiments and the show acknowledges that once the Pac-12 can end the media deal drama, reporters can finally focus on football again.The Mid-American Conference may be trying to restore some of its top rivalries to weekend billings after seeing lower attendance on weekdays. The weekday MACtion is a great college tradition, but the conference is looking to reinvigorate the fans with more Saturday games between noted rivals.Lastly, an otter in California is taking over Santa Cruz by intimidating and stealing boards from surfers.1:00 Lane Kiffin believes college sports are a disaster15:28 Big Ten media days are around the corner35:53 Fallout from Pac-12 media days45:03 The MAC held their media days53:57 There is an outlaw otter in CaliforniaFollow Dan @DanWetzelFollow Pat @ByPatFordeFollow Ross @RossDellengerCheck out all the episodes of the College Football Enquirer and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports PodcastsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
