Which coaches may find themselves on the hot seat?

Plus, we have some fun with some early over/under predictions for next season. Will the teams we look at have a better record, worse record, or the same record as they last year?

Laner explains why the statement "players deserve to be paid" can't be the reason we continue to make horrible decisions for the sport. Most people agree players should be paid, but the lack of structure is killing the sport. 

Fans, coaches, and everyone else in CFB have had enough. Rogue, uncertified agents shouldn't be the ones winning in all of the NIL and transfer portal moves, but that's the current reality. Laner drops some hard truths and offers some questions for early championship contenders.

Laner continues to focus on the scheduling problems that abound in college football. Part 2 focuses on the SEC and takes a special look at the contrast between the way Texas and Oklahoma have been treated since they entered the league.

In this 2025 offseason episode, Laner dives into one of the major issues college football is facing...scheduling. Do people even realize this is an issue? Scheduling is deeply connected to conference realignment and it has major implications for recruiting, coaching tenures, perception of your program, and even a ticket to the CFP.

In this episode, Laner dives into the strongest and weakest schedules in the B10 and dives into the SOS disparity within the conference.
