The Senate proposals could reshape college football's power structure—will Florida State, Miami, and Clemson finally break free from the ACC's long-term grant of rights? The discussion unpacks the Protect College Sports Act, spotlighting conference realignment hurdles, the controversial five-year sit-out rule, and new 19-team caps that could lock programs out of the coveted SEC and Big Ten. Key programs like Kansas, North Carolina, and Virginia emerge as potential expansion targets, setting off a battle among college football's elite. Predictions fly on national title contenders, including Oregon, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Texas, LSU, Georgia, Ole Miss, Texas A&M, Miami, and Alabama. The conversation highlights pressing roster questions—from CJ Carr's readiness for Notre Dame to Arch Manning's post-snap reads for Texas and Alabama's lack of ability to run the football. With NIL caps, booster influence, and TV contracts pulling the strings, is a Super League or three mega-conferences the sport's inevitable next step? Support us by supporting our sponsors!

The Miami Hurricanes, Notre Dame Fighting Irish, Alabama Crimson Tide, Ohio State Buckeyes, and Michigan Wolverines storm out to fast starts in 2028 recruiting, eyeing top classes and fierce competition for elite prospects. Can Miami's South Florida dominance power the Hurricanes ahead of rivals? Meanwhile, Notre Dame's pursuit of top receivers and cornerback Keaton Fields signals the Irish are still a recruiting power, while questions loom over quarterback recruiting and how many recruits will be signed. Alabama eyes a loaded in-state class featuring Kingston Preyier and Nehemiah McCary but faces NIL spending concerns that could shape their national standing. Ohio State impresses with early commitment from quarterback Christopher Vargas and running back Elijah Newman-Hall, leveraging smart NIL investments to secure top-tier talent. Michigan has inroads with top in-state recruits but must capitalize. The discussion explores trends in NIL, key positional battles, and whether breakout teams like Indiana or Texas A&M can break into the elite.

In this episode, Josh talks to second round pick Chris Cortez about his upbringing in Las Vegas, his collegiate days at Texas A&M, and how he feels about his development as he makes the switch from starting rotation to bullpen.
The dominant mechanism addressed is the development of a self-regulatory framework for IT service providers, specifically as Texas A&M University's Global Cyber Research Institute (GTIA) launches the Consortium for Responsible IT Services (CRITS). This signals a move toward organized self-governance and standard-setting within the MSP sector, in contrast to direct government-imposed regulation. The initiative is designed to shift the industry from fragmented standard adoption toward collective risk and professional accountability, using academic infrastructure and industry funding as its operational backbone. According to statements from Cole Knuth, GTIA's facilitation of CRITS involves university-hosted development and company funding, with the intention to produce a publication outlining operational and cybersecurity standards for IT service providers. The university has committed both its name and financial resources, making CRITS a formal legal construct enabled by Texas A&M's research arm. The initial executive sponsors are large industry players—New Charter, Pax8, and The 20—but there is not yet independent MSP participation under 25 employees. The first member meeting is scheduled to occur alongside the GCRI Summit in October. The episode contrasts CRITS with prior efforts to establish industry standards, noting previous initiatives by the MSP Alliance, NSITSP, and GTIA's own Cybersecurity Trustmark, none of which achieved broad acceptance or regulatory recognition. Cole Knuth attributes this lack of traction to fragmented grassroots approaches or top-down lobbying, asserting that CRITS aims for a “middle out” model by aggregating MSP voices to build legitimacy and influence before external regulation is enacted. The consortium's design includes the possibility of recognizing existing certifications rather than displacing them, and emphasizes eventual inclusion of smaller and independent MSPs in governance. For MSPs and IT leaders, the practical implications include increased pressure to participate in the development and adoption of industry standards to mitigate liability risk and avoid externally imposed rules. Operational challenges are likely to include the need for resource allocation to compliance initiatives, cost uncertainties regarding participation and auditing, and navigating evolving governance requirements as standards are defined. Smaller MSPs face the risk of exclusion unless explicit mechanisms are created for their input and representation, and the structure of CRITS may lead to new layers of compliance complexity and scrutiny, particularly as the consortium transitions from initial large-member funding to broader industry engagement.

Patrick Moorhead and Daniel Newman cover Tesla and SpaceX's $16.8 billion TerraFab chip factory, Samsung's zHBM debut at FMS 2026, a week of frontier model launches, and a simulated debate for "The Flip" over whether custom silicon will capture the majority of AI workload dollars by 2028. The episode closes with earnings from SpaceX, Palantir, AMD, Astera Labs, IonQ, and Lattice Semiconductor. The handpicked topics for this week are: 1. TerraFab Breaks Ground in Grimes County, Texas: Moorhead and Newman dig into Tesla and SpaceX's approved $16.8 billion TerraFab chip factory near Texas A&M, where Intel is confirmed as a digital foundry partner despite minimal SEC disclosure so far. Moorhead raises the open question of who handles the analog side of production that Intel doesn't cover, and Newman points to Musk's track record of hitting ambitious goals years behind his original stated timelines. Both hosts frame the investment as a genuine step toward expanding domestic chip manufacturing. (The Decode) 2. Samsung's zHBM Headlines a Blockbuster Memory Show at FMS 2026: The hosts cover the Future of Memory and Storage show in Santa Clara, where Samsung's BVNAND and zHBM concepts headlined alongside new announcements from Kioxia, SanDisk, and SK Group's high-bandwidth flash spec through OCP. Pat traces the industry's swing from oversupply and negative margins to today's memory shortage, driven by AI demand that has grown 5-10x faster than expected. Daniel adds that stacking memory directly on the accelerator, as zHBM proposes still needs to solve for the physical constraints of heat before it becomes production-ready. (The Decode) 3. Three Frontier Model Launches Land in a Single Week: Alibaba shipped Qwen 3.8 Max, DeepSeek released V4 Flash at 14 cents per million tokens, and Meta debuted its first coding agent, prompting a discussion on how fast the frontier is moving. Newman argues every company will need a new benchmark built around operational workloads and real-world token efficiency. He points out that Chinese model usage and frontier lab revenue are both climbing simultaneously, and makes the case that healthy frontier labs are essential to funding the open source models built in their wake. (The Decode) 4. Anthropic and AMD Both Make Moves on Custom Silicon: Anthropic confirmed it's developing custom AI chips, reportedly with Samsung and reportedly Broadcom. AMD announced its acquisition of Taalas, a company that etches model weights directly into silicon for major inference speed gains. Patrick traces his own multi-year prediction that heterogeneous computing would become standard, pointing to Google's TPU program as proof it can work at scale. Daniel frames both moves as evidence that AI companies are racing to control total cost of ownership (TCO) as memory and compute costs keep climbing. (The Decode) 5. The Flip: Will Custom Silicon Capture the Majority of AI Workload Dollars by 2028? Patrick argues every frontier lab is now pursuing vertical integration, citing Anthropic's new chip program, AMD's acquisition of Taalas, and NVIDIA's $20 billion license of Grok's inference technology as evidence the shift toward specialized silicon has become a step function. Daniel counters that every lab building custom silicon is simultaneously signing record contracts with NVIDIA and AMD, arguing that compute itself functions as the real moat regardless of chip architecture. (The Flip) 6. SpaceX Posts 92% Growth in Its First Public Earnings Report: SpaceX's debut public earnings showed 92% growth, narrowing losses, and rapidly expanding AI compute revenue layered on top of its launch and satellite businesses. Daniel flags new AI deals with Google and Anthropic as driving much of that growth, while Pat highlights that the company's stated $100 billion run rate target depends heavily on December performance and questions how soon TerraFab related capex will hit the income statement. (Bulls and Bears) 7. Palantir Delivers Its Fastest Revenue Growth in Company History: Palantir posted 93% year-over-year growth and record commercial revenue, with CEO Alex Karp highlighting that no company at Palantir's scale has grown this fast before. Patrick points to the company's sovereign AI positioning as being well-timed given growing enterprise distrust of frontier model providers, and Daniel adds that 150% commercial growth is far outpacing other enterprise software peers. (Bulls and Bears) 8. AMD Posts Record Growth as Investors Expect Even More: AMD delivered record revenue and growth. Investors had priced in results closer to NVIDIA's historic beats, and capex nearly quadrupled without much detail on where the spending is going. Moorhead traces the increase to AMD building out Helios rack-scale systems ahead of shipping, and both hosts note the timing of Elon Musk's public NVIDIA endorsement landed awkwardly on AMD's earnings day. (Bulls and Bears) 9. Astera Labs Beats on Revenue and EPS as the Market Shrugs: Astera Labs beat on both top line and EPS, posting record growth off a still small base. Pat points out new CXL innovations unveiled at FMS as evidence of the company's position building connectivity infrastructure alongside Broadcom and Marvell. (Bulls and Bears) 10. IonQ Raises Guidance and Closes Its $1.8 Billion Skywater Acquisition: IonQ raised its FY26 guidance from $280 to $290 million and closed its Skywater acquisition, positioning the company as a vertically integrated quantum player across networking, sensing, and compute. Daniel notes IonQ is approaching a billion dollar annual run rate once Skywater is included, and highlights a new Anduril partnership as a notable expansion into defense. Patrick adds nuance to the "only quantum pure play with foundry assets" framing, noting other quantum companies maintain foundry relationships of their own. (Bulls and Bears) 11. Lattice Semiconductor Beats Across Revenue, EPS, and Guidance: Lattice beat on revenue, EPS, and guidance, growing 62% and closing its $1.65 billion AMI acquisition. Newman points to the company's data center AI segment growing 83% as FPGA content keeps expanding inside rack scale systems, and both hosts frame Lattice as approaching a billion dollars in annual revenue.

This Week: Turns out if you invest resources equitably to meet the needs of students and communities who have been systematically underserved, you do see results. Shocker. In Los Angeles, the district's Black Student Achievement Plan has faced racist legal challenges and the doom of an impending budget crisis. And yet, state test scores show the achievement gap for Black students is shrinking. And, in Texas a group of faculty have sued the Texas A&M System over a dystopian policy banning “advocacy” of race and gender ideology, whatever the hell that even means. The policy, which is a clear example of censorship, and a flagrant violation of first amendment rights, is now facing legal challenges by faculty who have faced rejection of courses, censorship of texts and topics, and even cancellation of a course already in session. Wild times, and hopefully more good news coming from the courts soon. Manuel and Jeff discuss!All of the Above was named #30 on the Best 100 Education Podcasts in the US by MillionPodcasts.com.

Randle head coach Brian Randle joins Rod Babers and Gerry Hamilton to reveal the behind-the-scenes story of Landen Williams-Callis' commitment to Texas. Coach Randle admits Texas A&M held the recruiting advantage for much of the process, but explains how Chris Gilbert's relationship with Williams-Callis and his family helped the Longhorns completely change the trajectory of the recruitment and land one of the state's most productive players. The guys also break down why Williams-Callis' 5-foot-8 frame can become an advantage, highlighting his low center of gravity, elite vision, contact balance and explosive acceleration. Coach Randle discusses carefully managing his workload, his remarkable strength and durability, and the character that separates him away from football—from protecting classmates from bullying to displaying the maturity and leadership of an “old soul.” Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

IMG Academy's rising stars ignite the national recruiting scene as Jayden Wade commits to Georgia and Elijah Newman-Hall pledges to Ohio State, but can their class of 2028 set a new standard for elite high school football? Brian Smith spotlights a powerhouse roster featuring Nation Farmer, Phoenix Evans, and Kody Strayhorn, with major programs like Alabama, Texas A&M, and Notre Dame vying for generational talent.

College football expert Phil Steele joins Bobby Burton to explain why he ranks Texas No. 4 nationally and believes the Longhorns can win the 2026 national championship. Steele projects Texas to have the nation's No. 3 offense and No. 8 defense, pointing to Arch Manning's late-season growth, a dramatically improved offensive line, two proven transfer running backs and the potentially explosive combination of Cam Coleman and Ryan Wingo. Steele also breaks down the SEC championship race between Texas and Georgia, explains why the Longhorns landed several major transfer-portal upgrades and evaluates Texas A&M ahead of the rivalry rematch. Plus, he reveals Alabama as his biggest surprise team, names Gunnar Stockton as a long-shot Heisman candidate and explains why the 2027 NFL Draft quarterback class could be one of the deepest in years.

Rod Babers and CJ Vogel deliver a blunt assessment of Steve Sarkisian entering his sixth season at Texas. Despite three consecutive double-digit-win seasons, the Longhorns have consistently fallen short of elite status on third down, in the red zone and with their in-game offensive adjustments. With Arch Manning surrounded by explosive weapons, is this the season Sark finally produces the dominant offense Texas needs to win a national championship? The guys also discuss Sarkisian's opportunity to defeat Oklahoma and Texas A&M for a third consecutive season, why the Sooners may present the tougher rivalry matchup and which road games could derail Texas' title pursuit. Plus, they break down Graceson Littleton's position in Will Muschamp's secondary, Laerence Seymore's upside at left guard, Landon Williams-Callis' five-star talent and how an aggressive defense could help Texas take control of games early.

Hour 3 opens up with Isaac and Suke discussing some big show news before Big Suke takes some time off. Later, the guys discuss the new developments in the Moda Center renovations and the Trail Blazers. Later, the guys discuss what gameday suites by Texas A&M and they both agree that it will make a ton of money. The guys also discuss the Tony Romo situation.
Jeff Howe, Gerry Hamilton and Jordan Scruggs deliver the latest intel before elite 2027 running back Landon Williams-Callis announces his commitment. After falling behind following Tashard Choice's departure, Texas mounted a major comeback through a full-staff recruiting effort and now appears to be the favorite over Texas A&M, SMU and the rest of the field. The crew explains why the Longhorns have surged—and why both Gerry and Jordan are predicting Texas. Williams-Callis is already one of the most accomplished running backs in Texas high school football history, with an opportunity to challenge several major records during his senior season. The guys examine his historic production, his potential legacy in Austin and how pairing him with Noah Roberts could give Steve Sarkisian an exceptional two-back class while reducing Texas' future dependence on the transfer portal.

Lima and Lance bring in producer John to run through a rapid-fire news roundup, starting with Vita Vea's trade request and whether he'd actually fit alongside Myles Garrett in a stacked L.A. defensive front, with Lance arguing the scheme mismatch makes it less ideal than it looks on paper. They mock Texas A&M's new $562,500 off-site luxury suites and use it to riff on college football's booster-driven arms race, pointing to Indiana's roster of older, well-paid players as the new blueprint for buying a championship. The two dig into the UNC chaos surrounding Bill Belichick, including GM Mike Lombardi's administrative leave over an HR complaint and the program's rocky transition from NFL legend to college also-ran.
College football recruiting heats up as elite 2028 prospects like Jett Harrison (Ohio State), LuKas Prock (Indiana), and Darieon Prescott (Notre Dame) make early commitments, signaling a seismic shift in how top programs court future stars. Alabama surges ahead with seven early pledges, while heavyweights like Penn State, Oklahoma, and South Carolina solidifying key positions like quarterback and defensive line. Will programs like Georgia and Clemson adjust their NIL strategies to keep pace with recruiting giants–especially the way Texas A&M is spending NIL–or risk falling behind in the next recruiting cycle? Brian Smith breaks down the ripple effects of the new five-for-five eligibility rule, the growing NIL arms race, and how early teenage talent evaluations are redefining college football's landscape. Key storylines include Miami's pursuit of top-10 recruits A'mir Sears and Brysen Wright, the Big 12's trench recruiting dilemma, and what Notre Dame's edge-rusher haul means for their defensive future.

Jeff Howe, Rod Babers and CJ Vogel break down one of the most important position battles of Texas training camp: the competition at left guard. The numbers reveal just how damaging the position was last season, as Texas left guards allowed a nation-worst 26.5 percent pressure rate while Arch Manning finished as one of the most pressured quarterbacks in college football. Could All-American transfer Laurence Seymore provide the immediate upgrade the Longhorns desperately need? The crew examines Seymore's athleticism, body transformation and fit within Steve Sarkisian's offense while discussing the other contenders who could challenge him for the starting job. They also explain why improved interior physicality, pass protection and offensive-line cohesion could determine whether Texas fixes its running game, protects Arch Manning and finally executes against elite defenses such as Ohio State, Georgia, Oklahoma and Texas A&M. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
The Voice of the Longhorns, Craig Way, joins Bobby Burton to assess the enormous expectations surrounding Texas entering the 2026 season. Way compares the anticipation to the 2005 and 2009 teams, explains why Georgia still deserves to be viewed as the SEC favorite and identifies the conference contenders capable of challenging the Bulldogs and Longhorns. The conversation also covers Arch Manning's place among the SEC's quarterbacks, Oklahoma's championship-caliber defense and the potential impact of Lane Kiffin at LSU. Craig also looks ahead to Texas' demanding road schedule, including trips to Tennessee, LSU, Missouri and Texas A&M, while sharing stories from nearly four decades of traveling with the Longhorns. He ultimately predicts Texas will reach the SEC Championship Game in Atlanta and secure a College Football Playoff berth, provided the Longhorns remain healthy and continue improving throughout a difficult nine-game SEC schedule. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
Rod Babers and Jeff Howe react to the SEC preseason poll and debate where Texas truly belongs in the conference hierarchy. Is Georgia still in a tier by itself, or does Steve Sarkisian finally have the roster capable of overtaking Kirby Smart? The guys break down the strengths and potential “tragic flaws” of the SEC's top contenders, including Oklahoma, Texas A&M, LSU, Alabama, Ole Miss and an improving Florida program that could ruin another contender's season. The conversation also examines the growth of Arch Manning and Colin Simmons as leaders, Texas' plan to correct its costly penalty problem and the offensive-line adjustments that could determine whether the running game improves. Plus, Rod and Jeff discuss John Meredith's reclassification, how the five-star cornerback could contribute on special teams, the importance of Texas' new assistant coaches and whether any future national championship could ever surpass the unforgettable 2005 title team.

Mike Elko's message is not built around hype — it is built around restraint, urgency and unfinished business. After Texas A&M's 11-win season and first College Football Playoff appearance, Elko refuses to let the Aggies act like they have arrived. His strongest point is simple and cutting: Texas A&M has made progress, but the program still has not won a championship. That is why the empty trophy case becomes the emotional center of his message — a reminder that the Aggies are closer, but not finished. The audio also leans heavily into what has to change for Texas A&M to take the next step. Marcel Reed has to keep growing, the Aggies have to protect the football, and the defense has to create more takeaways after a season where turnovers helped define the biggest losses. The Texas rivalry hangs over everything, too. Elko knows the Lone Star Showdown now carries playoff and championship implications, and the pain of losing to Texas gives this entire conversation an edge: A&M is not chasing respect anymore — it is chasing proof.

Jeff Howe and CJ Vogel go live from the OTF house at SEC Media Days to break down one of the biggest questions facing Texas football in 2026: can the Longhorns become tougher and more physical when it matters most? The conversation centers on Will Muschamp's impact, what Georgia players said about his intensity, and why Steve Sarkisian's hires of Muschamp and Jabbar Juluke point directly to a renewed emphasis on physicality, discipline, and finishing in critical situations. The guys also dive into Georgia's standard under Kirby Smart, why Texas still has to prove it can win a “phone booth fight” against elite SEC opponents, and how the Longhorns' running backs must change the tone under Juluke. Plus, Jeff and CJ discuss Oklahoma, Texas A&M, Arch Manning's edge over rival quarterbacks, and whether Texas has the talent and toughness to finally get over the hump in the SEC and College Football Playoff race.

The show also dives into major SEC storylines, including Kirby Smart's confidence in Georgia, Ole Miss' outlook under Pete Golding, and the key questions facing Mike Elko and Texas A&M. Plus, Jeff Howe joins to break down Steve Sarkisian, Will Muschamp, and Jabbar Juluke's appearances at the Texas High School Coaches Association convention, including why Texas is putting a major emphasis on physicality, toughness, and rebuilding the running back room with a new edge.

This audio hears from two of the most electric quarterbacks in the SEC: Marcel Reed at Texas A&M and Trinidad Chambliss at Ole Miss. Reed brings the kind of athleticism that can wreck a defense when the play breaks down, but the pressure now is on him to become a more complete quarterback and turn explosive flashes into championship-level consistency. On the other side, Chambliss has become one of college football's most unlikely stars — a quarterback who climbed from Division II to the center of the SEC spotlight and now carries real expectations.

SEC coaches and fans are crying foul—but have they earned the right? Brian Smith spotlights the mounting pressure on the Southeastern Conference as the Big 10 won the last three College Football Playoffs. Has the SEC's grip on the top of the sport slipped, or can Texas, Georgia, and new-look Texas A&M reclaim their place among the elite? Steve Sarkisian, Kirby Smart, and Mike Elko all take center stage, with fresh coaching hires and quarterback shakeups fueling debate. Key topics include the SEC's 2-6 record in out-of-conference playoff games, fanbase complaints (with LSU and Alabama leading the charge), and which programs are primed to break through. Brian Smith ranks tiered coaching talent with Kirby Smart at the pinnacle, questions which first-year head coaches like Pete Golding (Ole Miss), John Sumrall (Florida), and Alex Golesh (Auburn) can win big, and explores how NIL changes, recruiting trends, and schedule shakeups could define the SEC's next era.

On this edition of On Texas Football's Sideline Debate, Jeff Howe is joined by CJ Vogel, Hank South, Jordan Scruggs, Rod Babers, and Jerry Hamilton to make their picks for the 2026 SEC champion and debate how many SEC teams will make the College Football Playoff. Georgia remains the popular pick among the panel, but Hank makes the case for Texas finally breaking through behind Arch Manning, Will Muschamp's defense, and what could be the Longhorns' best roster since 2005. The crew also breaks down the playoff paths for Texas, Georgia, Oklahoma, LSU, Alabama, Ole Miss, Florida, and Texas A&M, including why early non-conference games could make or break the SEC race. From Georgia's schedule advantage to Texas' brutal road, Oklahoma's defensive formula, Florida's sleeper potential, and why nobody on the panel is buying A&M as a playoff team, this episode delivers a full SEC title and playoff forecast heading into 2026.

And if one were to look back at the past drafts of Monti Ossenfort since his time as Cardinals GM, then that is exactly what has been the goal. The trend continued this year with the selection of guard Chase Bisontis out of Texas A&M in the second round and tackle Jayden Williams out of Mississippi in the seventh round. Craig Grialou introduces both players before giving way to Paul Calvisi, who recently caught up with each of them individually. Hear Bisontis discuss his confidence having played in the SEC; hear Williams discuss his athleticism; and hear both discuss their time in college with Walter Nolen, who earned significantly praise from each.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
