In this episode, Dochterman joins the show to explain to Couz why the heated rivalry did not make it as high as many fans expected. He will also reveal his criteria and metrics used to create his rankings. Other rivalries discussed are: The Holy War between Utah & BYU, the Territorial Cup between Arizona and Arizona State, Ohio State vs. Penn State, Iowa vs. Iowa State, and several others.

Rich Rodriguez is dealing with an abnormally high amount of roster turnover in his first year back as head coach of the WVU football program. Some of the numbers are alarming when you compare them to the 2023 Colorado team led by Deion Sanders in 2023. In the episode, Couz compares the two roster overhauls. He will also take a look at the 2024 Indiana Hoosiers team. Which team will the 2025 West Virginia Mountaineers come closer to emulating? Deion's 4-8 Buffs team, or Curt Cignetti's Hoosiers who made the College Football Playoff in year one? Couz gives his answer in the show. #wvufootball #transferportal #wvu Sources: On3 247 Sports Rivals Phil Steele College Football Preview 2024 ESPN ⭐️Sponsors: ⭐️ https://www.katzkantor.com http://appalachiadigital.com/couz/

Little has been heard from Zac Alley since his arrival in Morgantown.  West Virginia University's defensive coordinator is a rising star in coaching circles. You could say Alley's decision to join the WVU program is Rich Rodriguez's biggest recruiting coup yet. Alley's departure from Oklahoma gives Rodriguez the aggressive attacking nature that pairs well with his fast-paced offensive attack. In this episode, Alley reveals his motivation and goals in his role with the Mountaineers.  It's an insightful visit with Alley, who admits West Virginia University football changed his life before he ever arrived in Morgantown. 

Rich Rodriguez recently claimed that the West Virginia Mountaineers can win a national title on The Triple Option Podcast. Is that realistic for a program with such a small in-state recruiting base?What about the Transfer Portal haul Rich Rodriguez's staff acquired and can that method be the Mountaineers' path to an eventual title?

Art Rooney II says a ‘little bit longer' for Aaron Rodgers. We don't think he has any clue when Rodgers is showing up or signing that contract. Are the Steelers prepared for everything that comes along with Rodgers? Is it continuing to make them look desperate? If Rodgers doesn't show up, does it make them look dumber than if he does and they stink? Some BIG college football news – the college football playoff will now give a bye to the 4 best teams, regardless of conference. What does that mean for Penn State? There was also a ranking of college football coaches. Where did James Franklin, Pat Narduzzi and Rich Rodriguez land? KDKA TV's Bob Pompeani joined the show. For Bob calling us late, Poni punished him by doing a special edition of Power Rankings. The list was ‘people, dead or alive, Bob would want to have dinner with.'

This is a chaotic time for college football, but it might be perfect timing for Rich Rodriguez and his roster turnover.

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?

West Virginia head coach, Rich Rodriguez bans his team from posting TikTok dances.

Continuing the March Madness discussion, the guys breakdown the bracket's top-heavy nature and why this year's tournament feels less unpredictable.

Wofford College head coach Dwight Perry discusses the thrill of leading his team to the NCAA tournament after a surprising run through the Southern Conference.

Today's Rapid Fire topics include: USC/Chad Bowden trolling Notre Dame (again) with a Mike Williams highlight video, should Notre Dame find a way to include both USC and Michigan on future schedules, NCAA basketball tournament expansion, Rich Rodriguez bans Tik Tok dancing at West Virginia, Aaron Rodgers and more. Today's Rapid Fire topics include: * Sean Stires and Vince DeDario start with their thoughts on a social media video produced by Southern Cal that features former Trojan receiver Mike Williams and features 11 highlights of Williams - all of them against Notre Dame. * With the future prospects of USC continuing its series with Notre Dame in mind, what if instead of playing USC every year, Notre Dame would play home and home for two years with USC and then two years with Michigan and then keep alternating it that way every two years going forward. Do you Buy or Sell it? * Notre Dame men's basketball saw its season end in the second round of the ACC Tournament today against North Carolina. Has the needle moved forward in Micah Shrewsberry's first two years? * There's been talk over the last few years about expanding the NCAA basketball tournament. Big 12 commissioner Brett Yormark said this week that he's in favor of expanding the field to 76 teams. The NCAA looked at a proposal last year that would expand the tournament by having play-in games for all of the 10 through 12 seeds. Do you Buy or Sell it? * If Aaron Rodgers is choosing between the Steelers and the Giants, what's the choice? * New West Virginia head coach Rich Rodriguez has banned his players from TikTok dancing. Good idea or bad idea? * A Connecticut lawmaker has introduced a bill that would require movie theaters to disclose what time the trailers start before the movie and what time the movie actually starts. Do you Buy or Sell it?

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 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.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.splitzoneduo.comThe coaching carousel before the 2001 season transformed college football. 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.
