WVU football coach Rich Rodriguez defines what competetion means to him. WVU soccer coach Dan Stratford on his team's undefeated start in the new Spring Soccer Cup.

It has been 17 years since Rich Rodriguez coached on Mountaineer Field with fans in the stands.  That streak will end on Saturday when the Mountaineers collide in the Gold & Blue Showcase.  It will give Rodriguez and staff a final chance to evaluate the roster.  It's also the last chance for players to shine before the roster is reduced.  New rules will allow for just 105 roster spots starting next season.  That's a reduction of about 20 players from the current system. In this episode, Brad and Tony talk with Coach Rodriguez about the current state of the program and changes that will be made in the next several months. Listener questions and comments complete the episode. 

On their weekly podcast, host Adam Bittner and Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey react to the Steelers' offseason moves so far. How do moves for names like DK Metcalf, Kenneth Gainwell, Darius Slay and -- potentially -- Aaron Rodgers compare to GM Omar Khan's action in his first two seasons? Does this group compare well with the 2023 NFL free agency class that included Elandon Roberts, Larry Ogunjobi and Isaac Seumalo? Or the 2024 group that included Russell Wilson, Justin Fields, Patrick Queen and DeShon Elliott? Will a lack of NFL draft picks naturally lead to a less bountiful offseason? And how should the stockpiling of compensatory picks for 2026 factor into this conversations? Later, the guys get into some college talk with Pitt, Penn State and West Virginia all stating spring practice. Are eyes on Drew Allar in Happy Valley as he looks to shake off a College Football Playoff loss to Notre Dame? Can he get the most out of a loaded roster that includes returnees such as Nick Singleton, Kaytron Allen and more? And are receiver transfers Devonte Ross and Kyron Hudson enough to help the passing game as it loses Tyler Warren to the NFL? In Morgantown, what kind of difference can the return of coach Rich Rodriguez make? And can Eli Holstein, Desmond Reid and the Panthers emerge from mediocrity? Our duo tackles those questions. Then in the third segment, airing on the PG Pirates YouTube channel, Adam and Jason get into predictions for the Pirates and the MLB season. How many wins will manager Derek Shelton's club rack up? Can Paul Skenes, Mitch Keller and the pitching staff push them over the .500 mark? Or will the lineup led by Oneil Cruz, Bryan Reynolds and Ke'Bryan Hayes continue to struggle like it has in years past? What should we make of Carmen Mlodzinski earning a rotation spot? How will the catching situation play out with Endy Rodriguez making the Opening Day roster and Henry Davis starting in Class AAA? And why haven't we hear from owner Bob Nutting this spring?

Hour 1 The discussion began with Aaron Rodgers' potential landing spots, with Boomer favoring the Vikings, Steelers, or Giants, while Gio doubted the Vikings' financial commitment and the Steelers' history of big-money deals for aging players. C-Lo provided a sports update, featuring Al's preference for Boomer over Daniel Jones in a crucial down, and Zach Wilson's move to the Dolphins. Al also criticized agents' credit in NFL reporting. Other topics included Rich Rodriguez's TikTok ban for his players, Adam Schein's dramatic reaction to Gerrit Cole's surgery, and a debate between Gio and a caller regarding Zach Wilson's departure from Denver. Hour 2 The conversation centered on quarterback expectations, with Gio attributing inflated hopes for traded or signed quarterbacks to the examples of Sam Darnold and Geno Smith, while Boomer emphasized the immense pressure placed on young players in New York. The Jets' signing of Justin Fields was discussed, with Gio seeing it as a reasonable move for the team's current state. Boomer suggested Mason Graham for the Giants, while Gio argued the team's future hinged on drafting a quarterback. C-Lo's update covered Brian Cashman's press conference on Gerrit Cole's injury and Tiger Woods' Achilles surgery. Further discussion involved Max Fried's availability for Opening Day and clips of baseball broadcasters nearly being hit by foul balls. The segment concluded with Gio's anticipation for the Mets' Juan Soto docuseries, hoping it avoids overly celebratory portrayals. Hour 3 The show opened with a playful suggestion for Pete Alonso's walk-up song and a discussion of Evan Roberts' impressive beard. A caller cautioned the Giants against drafting a quarterback in the current draft, with Jaxson Dart again mentioned as a later possibility. C-Lo's update was preceded by predictions of Aaron Rodgers to the Steelers and Russell Wilson to the Giants, leaving the Vikings' quarterback situation open. Francisco Lindor's interview with BT & Sal, marked by BT's lengthy monologues, covered Mets-Yankees comparisons and Juan Soto. C-Lo provided a fundraising update, and the segment concluded with Dave Sims expressing his dislike for the nickname "Coleman and the Soul Man" for his WFAN show. Hour 4 Boomer and Gio discussed the Giants' quarterback dilemma, noting the quiet opinions of fans regarding Aaron Rodgers and debating draft options like Abdul Carter over Shedeur Sanders. Jaxson Dart's Utah connection drew Gio's skepticism. Calls from Giants fans revealed varied draft preferences. C-Lo's update included Brian Cashman's take on Gerrit Cole's injury, Keith McPherson's frustration with Aaron Rodgers talk, Angel Reese's WNBA work stoppage hint, and Marshall Faulk's self-promoting introduction at Colorado. Shannon Sharpe's Mike Tomlin analogy and a question about orangutan anatomy provided lighter moments. The segment concluded with Gio's prediction of continued Aaron Rodgers uncertainty.

Some programs set themselves up for national championship (or even dynastic) runs. Some screwed themselves. Some set the stage for the next several decades of the top tiers of the SEC and Big Ten. In this episode, Alex Kirshner, Richard Johnson, and Steven Godfrey take a fine-toothed comb through the consequential coaching cycle at the end of 2000: * The hires that worked really well (Gary Patterson to TCU, Pete Carroll to USC, Jim Tressel to Ohio State, Rich Rodriguez to WVU, and many more) * The hires that fell flat (hello, UNC and Arizona) * The hires that shaped college football to this day* The what-if scenarios that nearly made it all different * Ohio State and Georgia shopping for upgrades * A reevaluation of Larry Coker? * Class superlatives, including the Ellis Johnson Southern Miss Award for missed opportunities, the Coaching Carousel Global Impact Award for the most profound ripple effects, and Hire of the Year And more.
