  • Brendan Sorsby Supplemental Draft, Coaching Report Cards & Early Upset Picks
    Jun 18 2026

    Episode 23 starts with the wild Brendan Sorsby story, as he is expected to enter the NFL Supplemental Draft instead of playing for Texas Tech after the NCAA/Big 12 eligibility battle. We break down what happened, how the Supplemental Draft works, and why this could become one of the most interesting NFL draft stories in years.

    Then we continue our college football coaching report cards, including thoughts on Indiana, Texas Tech, Texas A&M, Miami, and Ole Miss. We talk through Mario Cristobal building Miami back into a real national program, Pete Golding taking over after Lane Kiffin at Ole Miss, and what these coaches still have to prove heading into the season.

    After that, we look at the early-season games that could produce the first big upset of the year, including Toledo over Michigan State, Clemson over LSU, Old Dominion over Virginia Tech, Iowa State over Iowa, Arizona State over Texas A&M, and more.

    We close the show with bold takes for the upcoming college football season.
