Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Clay Travis and Buck Sexton discuss COVID-19 accountability, government decision-making, and the long-term historical assessment of public health leadership. Clay and Buck examined the extent of Fauci’s influence over national pandemic policy, arguing that state shutdowns, masking policies, and other mitigation measures reflected his recommendations. They contrasted Fauci’s approach with governors who resisted prolonged lockdowns, particularly Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, while also discussing how red-state leadership during the pandemic may be viewed by future historians. Senator Rand Paul’s years-long effort to investigate Fauci and challenge COVID-era narratives was also highlighted as a significant part of the conversation. An extended interview with U.S. Senator Eric Schmidt of Missouri. The interview began with discussion of the Sophie Cunningham controversy and broader questions surrounding women’s sports and public reaction to gender-related debates. Senator Schmidt criticized the treatment of young fans attending sporting events and suggested sports organizations should focus on growing and supporting their audiences rather than alienating them. The conversation then shifted to college sports and NIL reform, with Schmidt providing an update on ongoing negotiations surrounding proposed federal legislation affecting college athletics. Topics included Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) rules, transfer portal concerns, athlete eligibility, conference governance, revenue sharing, media rights, and efforts to bring greater stability to college football and college sports overall. Schmidt described conversations with leaders from the SEC, Big Ten, ACC, and Big 12 and discussed ongoing efforts to build consensus around a national framework for collegiate athletics. Clay and Buck continued discussing the controversy surrounding women’s sports and biological males competing in women’s athletics, revisiting arguments from earlier in the program. The hosts humorously speculated about a hypothetical basketball game featuring conservative media personalities competing against WNBA players and debated which well-known political and media figures would make up their roster. While presented largely as entertainment, the conversation tied back into their broader discussion about athletic competition, competitive fairness, and the ongoing national debate over gender and sports.

Ken and Anthony dig into the bizarre case of Cole Hudson, a player who spent time in Browns and Cowboys rookie camps and got a court-ordered path back to play for Texas, using it to blast the current state of college eligibility rules. Both hosts argue the NCAA's chaos around NIL, transfer rules, and eligibility has effectively made fans and universities crave real regulation, floating ideas like binding multi-year agreements between players and schools and mandatory progress toward a degree. They debate whether college football is now just a professional minor league in disguise, pointing to stars like Jeremiah Smith as evidence some players are effectively one-man free agents.

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. Galen and Scott discuss how Curt Cignetti has changed IU's recruiting reality, why Sales fits the staff's personality and development profile, and how Indiana's national championship momentum is turning into real traction with high-end talent.They also dig into Josh Hoover's interception outlook, how Indiana may bring him along inside the offense, and whether Cignetti is likely to pursue five-star quarterbacks or running backs in the same way he pursued Sales. 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

Could the SEC actually break away from the NCAA? On this episode of Last Call, Mick Gillispie and former Alabama national championship quarterback Jake Coker react to Greg Sankey's eye-opening comments from SEC Media Days and discuss why college football's lack of leadership, inconsistent NIL rules and massive financial disparities could eventually lead to a new super-league. The guys examine how a potential SEC and Big Ten breakaway could reshape college football, whether programs like Clemson and Florida State could eventually join the SEC, and why the current system cannot regulate Alabama, Texas, Ohio State and Michigan the same way it regulates smaller athletic departments. Jake also revisits the legendary feud between Nick Saban and Jimbo Fisher, revealing how personally Fisher took Saban's comments about Texas A&M recruiting. With NIL spending now becoming the standard across college football, does Jimbo's furious response look even worse in hindsight? The conversation then turns to the culture Nick Saban built at Alabama. Jake shares inside stories about the player-led leadership of Jarran Reed, Jonathan Allen, A'Shawn Robinson, Ryan Anderson and other Crimson Tide stars—including how Scott Cochran reportedly broke a second-place trophy to reinforce Alabama's championship-or-bust mentality. Can that type of culture still exist in the transfer portal and NIL era? Plus, Alabama was picked to finish a stunning seventh in the SEC preseason poll. Are Kalen DeBoer and the Crimson Tide being overlooked? Jake breaks down Ryan Grubb's quarterback development, Alabama's loaded QB room, Kane Wommack's defense, concerns about the offensive line and running game, and why the Tide could once again use preseason disrespect as motivation. And, of course, Jake and Mick debate what truly qualifies someone as a “redneck,” complete with stories about Jimbo Fisher, hunting, giant bucks and turkey heads.
