NEW YORK – Major League Rugby came out with a statement following last week's Owners' Meetings and MLR Weekly goes behind the curtain to unravel the known unknown. It also dives into the problematic College Rugby landscapes in the USA and Canada, while coming up with some outside-the-box ideas.

Airey Bros Radio hits Episode 400 with Coach Jesse Parker, Head Men's & Women's Cross Country Coach at Blinn College (NJCAA). Blinn brought XC back for the first time since 1995—and in year one Parker led both teams into the USTFCCCA NJCAA D1 rankings, qualified for NJCAA Nationals, and enters 2025 ranked #10 men / #11 women. We dig into rebuilding a program from scratch, Texas recruiting, the JUCO pathway (cost, credits, transfers), training philosophy (Daniels/Lydiard/Co.), Brenham's “poor man's altitude,” hosting Region 14 on a hilly course, facilities updates, and how to build a winning culture that actually fits the community.Who should listen: HS athletes & parents, JUCO/NCAA coaches, distance-running nerds, and anyone weighing JUCO vs. D1/D2/D3.Follow Blinn XC: IG @blinn_xcFollow Airey Bros Radio: IG @aireybrosradio | YouTube @AireyBros | Spotify & Apple: Airey Bros RadioFueled by: Black Sheep Endurance Coaching (ultra, nutrition, & performance)Show Notes & Timestamps00:00 Cold open & ABR Episode 400 intro; why we spotlight JUCO, D2/D3, and non-Power-4.01:20 CTAs + sponsor shout: Black Sheep Endurance; share with athletes exploring JUCO.02:03 Guest intro: Coach Jesse Parker, Blinn College—year-one rankings, NJCAA Nationals, 2025 preseason ranks.03:11 Blinn socials & contact (IG @blinn_xc; email).04:04 Parker's origin story: football/powerlifting → track nerd → Sam Houston State → coaching break.06:39 Building from zero: late-spring hire, no roster, recruiting sprint, getting athletes college-ready.09:59 Why Blinn?

In this episode of SOTG, we give our (late) thoughts on the loss to Southern Miss, preview what should be a thrashing against Sam Houston State, as well as an interesting week in C-USA play, and much more on the State of the Gamecocks!!!

The No. 9 Texas Longhorns are set to open up SEC play against the Florida Gators, kicking off a month of conference games away from Austin. Texas is coming off an offensive "get right" game against an outmatched Sam Houston State squad, with Arch Manning looking like the quarterback we expected in the game. Can Texas get even close to that performance against a salty Florida defense?

Rod Babers and Jeff Howe broke down one of the most fascinating storylines of Texas' season—the rise of 12 personnel (one back, two tight ends) in Steve Sarkisian's offense—and why it could be a game-changer against Florida. Historic Usage: Against San Jose State, Texas unleashed its most impressive 12 personnel package in years—five tight ends played, four were targeted, and the Horns averaged 22 yards per attempt and 12 yards per play out of that grouping. Then, versus Sam Houston State, Texas lined up in 12 personnel over 60% of the time, the highest of Sark's tenure. Why It Works Now: Injuries at RB and WR forced Sark to lean into his tight end depth. With guys like Jordan Washington and Jack Endries, Texas can block, stretch the field, and attack seams against two-high safety shells that are so common in today's defenses. As Rod put it: Sark weaponizes surpluses—if he's loaded at a position, he'll maximize it. NFL Inspiration: The trend mirrors the NFL, where 12 personnel usage is at its highest since 2007. Sark's shift could be partly necessity, partly evolution, and partly inspired by pro football strategy—forcing defenses into tough choices between base sets (vulnerable to pass) or nickel/dime (vulnerable to run). Run Game Reality Check: Texas' run defense is elite (No. 1 in SEC in rush yards allowed, five straight opponents under 100 yards, including Ohio State twice). But the Longhorns' own run game lacks explosiveness—just three 20+ yard runs all year, and none by RBs. Florida's run game is somehow even worse (No. 106 nationally), despite returning O-line talent. The Gators' guards and tackles have some of the worst blown block percentages in the SEC, crippling their consistency. The QB Factor: Florida QB DJ Lagway has been a disaster from clean pockets—five INTs, bottom-10 nationally in turnover-worthy plays. Teams sit back in coverage, dare him to read defenses, and he hasn't delivered. Jeff Howe called him “a way more fascinating story than Arch Manning” this year because of his struggles. Key Matchup Saturday: Both Texas and Florida can stop the run. Neither has been explosive on the ground. The game could hinge on which team finds that one or two big rushing plays that change field position and scoring opportunities. Rod and Jeff wrapped by highlighting that Texas' evolution into a “hybrid spread with power tight end sets” might be exactly what Sark envisioned years ago—and the Florida game is a perfect test of whether it's just necessity…or the future of Texas football.

Chris Lee and Blake Lovell discuss Oklahoma's road trip to Philadelphia to face Temple, which will host the Sooners at Lincoln Financial Field. The game will be shown on ESPN2 at 11 Central. Topics discussed include: Quarterback John Mateer leads the Southeastern Conference with 662 passing yards and also in total offense (760). Oklahoma needs more out of running back position, and particularly from Jayden Ott. The Sooners' defense has given up 3.3 and 5.1 ypp in wins over Illinois State and Michigan and is loaded in the front seven. Temple is a little better than it normally is. The Owls are 2-0 after beating UMass 42-10 and Howard 55-7. K.C. Keeler is a first-year coach at Temple; coached last two years at Sam Houston State. Offensive players to watch for Temple include quarterback Evan Simon (27-of-35, 422 yards, nine touchdowns and no interceptions) and running back Jay Ducker (29 carries, 219 yards, one touchdown). Is this a potential let-down spot for Oklahoma between an early kickoff in a large stadium with lots of empty seats and a big game ahead with Auburn following an emotional win over Michigan?

Griffin Warner and Lonte Smith dive into CFB Week 0. Week Zero of the college football season always feels like a strange appetizer, a slate that is light on the number of games but heavy on storylines, betting intrigue, and fan chatter. This year the action opens overseas with Iowa State and Kansas State meeting in Dublin for the Aer Lingus College Football Classic. It is a neutral-site matchup, a clash of Big 12 rivals being played far from home in a stadium more accustomed to soccer than Saturday gridiron. Iowa State has enjoyed recent dominance in the series, winning four of the last five, but Kansas State enters as a three-point favorite with a stronger defensive front and the potential breakout of quarterback Avery Johnson in a tempo-driven system. Rocco Beck threw for 3,500 yards last season but lost his two best targets to the NFL, and Matt Campbell's team feels due for regression after an 11-3 campaign. Some see value on Kansas State to cover, while others eye the under at fifty given the travel, the surface, and the potential for sloppy execution early. Later in the afternoon Kansas christens its new stadium with a visit from Fresno State, a matchup that has already seen line movement from fourteen down to twelve and a half. The Jayhawks return quarterback Jalen Daniels, whose health has long been a question, and welcome new defensive coordinator D.K. McDonald. Kansas finished strong last year and will have the benefit of a true home environment after a season of displacement. Fresno State is rebuilding under Matt Entz, the North Dakota State coach with a sterling FCS record now testing himself at the FBS level. With new coordinators, a new quarterback in EJ Warner, and the loss of most of last year's offensive stars, the Bulldogs face a tall order. Many bettors trust Kansas to handle business at home, though the total has dropped with expectations of more ball control on both sides. Sam Houston State and Western Kentucky offer a different style of entertainment, with points expected in bunches. The Bearkats bring in Phil Longo to reshape their offense, but it may take more than an offseason to get the scheme working with the current roster. Western Kentucky has become synonymous with explosive passing attacks, and even with a new offensive coordinator the Hilltoppers appear loaded for another high-flying year. Maverick McIver arrives with his play-caller from Abilene Christian, and the line has climbed from seven and a half to double digits. The sharper angle might be Western Kentucky in the first half, laying six and a half before late backdoor scenarios creep in. The finale is the traditional late-night Hawaii game, this time with Stanford crossing the Pacific under interim coach Frank Reich. The Cardinal are in disarray, with Andrew Luck now functioning in a front office role, an entirely new staff, and very little proven talent outside a few safeties. Hawaii, meanwhile, brings back thirteen starters, excitement around quarterback Micah Alejandro after his 500-yard debut, and an upgraded receiving corps that even includes a Stanford transfer. The line has flipped from Stanford favored to Hawaii by two, with bettors trusting the Warriors' continuity and island home field. With Stanford unsettled and Hawaii motivated, many expect the Rainbow Warriors to control the matchup. Week Zero is quirky, often sharp with numbers that have been posted for months, but it provides the first chance to analyze real action and measure offseason narratives. Kansas State versus Iowa State in Dublin sets the tone, Kansas and Fresno showcase new beginnings in Lawrence, Western Kentucky promises fireworks against Sam Houston, and Hawaii gets its chance to shine against a fallen Stanford. Best bets circle around Kansas State laying three and the under in that opener, but as always the debate will rage across forums and living rooms as fans celebrate the return of college football and the long march toward a new season of Saturdays.

Kansas State versus Iowa State in Dublin sets the tone, Kansas and Fresno showcase new beginnings in Lawrence, Western Kentucky promises fireworks against Sam Houston, and Hawaii gets its chance to shine against a fallen Stanford. Best bets circle around Kansas State laying three and the under in that opener, but as always the debate will rage across forums and living rooms as fans celebrate the return of college football and the long march toward a new season of Saturdays.

After struggling in the Bahamas, Indiana showed some encouraging signs on offense in a decisive 97-71 victory over Sam Houston State, highlighted by a smaller lineup and strong bench contributions.Mike Woodson demonstrated flexibility by moving away from the two-big lineup that had struggled previously, while Luke Goode (career-high 18 points) and Anthony Leal provided crucial energy and execution off the bench that helped spark the offense.The defensive concerns remain, but the Hoosiers showed they may be able to compensate with improved offensive spacing and tempo when playing with just one big man on the floor.Key discussion topics included:The stark difference in offensive flow and spacing when playing with one big versus twoMyles Rice's second-half emergence after early strugglesThe invaluable hustle and leadership provided by Anthony Leal in his expanded minutesIndiana's improved defensive rebounding after struggles in that area in the BahamasWhat tonight's lineup adjustments could mean for the rotation going forwardContinued concerns about perimeter defense despite the comfortable winPlus, as always, the Banner Moment, Meaningful Moments You Might Have Missed, Inside the Numbers, and our Game Balls, Hustle Award, and Lingering Questions.
