The Tennessee Titans are somewhere between a rebuild and a retool. With Jeffrey Simmons inking a new contract extension Friday, the long-term plan is becoming more and more in focus. General Manager Ran Carthon and Head Coach Mike Vrabel are seemingly content with the defense as-is and recognize the offense as the more pressing need. […]

Spring practice is underway for college programs across the country. It’s a beautiful time of year where every school believes their goals are attainable. Every player can imagine themselves on the field for long periods, and can dream of winning awards. This type of preseason hope exists everywhere, but our focus must be narrowed quite […]

The first week of NFL free agency is always the busiest, as teams rush to sign the best talent. However, it is not always possible for a team to fill all the gaps on their roster in just the first week of free agency. In fact, most teams don’t attempt to, as they know they […]

Free agency is underway and ever-changing. The Tennessee Titans appear to be ready to undergo a near total rebuild, at least on one side of the ball. Cap space is being freed up and used left and right, and the Titans are no different. New general manger Ran Carthon has already signed a handful of […]

As rumors swirl around players the Tennessee Titans may attempt to offload, they’re also trying to add pieces. It appears new general manager Ran Carthon is trying to begin a full transition of the roster from the previous era to this. With this transition comes a premium on draft picks. Draft season is fully in […]

Georgia Bulldogs defensive tackle Jalen Carter is widely regarded as one of the best, if not the single best prospect in the 2023 NFL Draft. He enters the pro ranks off the back of consecutive national championships, and an accolade-ridden career. There’s no doubt that Carter will be one of the first names read by […]

The Houston Texans are in the midst of a top-to-bottom rebuild of their entire organization. Former 49ers defensive coordinator DeMeco Ryans has become Houston’s third head coach in as many seasons. The roster is certain to be vastly different this fall compared to last. Plus, to top it all off they hold the second overall […]

On this offseason roadshow with the Tennessee Titans, we’ve discussed the draft, and most recently free agency. With those avenues covered, there’s only one method of player acquisition left; trades. New general manager Ran Carthon has the task of re-working an entire roster that saw its window of contending slam shut in 2022. At least […]

Ole Miss football head coach Lane Kiffin brands himself as the Portal King. After amassing a second-in-the-country transfer portal class in 2022, Kiffin and his staff faced another round of portal recruiting in the 2023 class. The Rebels inked commitments from 13 players, locking in the 6th best class in the country this go around. […]

News broke recently that the Texas Longhorns and Oklahoma Sooners had reached an agreement to leave the Big 12 early and depart for the SEC.

Super Bowl 57 has come and gone, with the Kansas Cit Chiefs beating the Philadelphia Eagles 38-35 on a last-second Harrison Butker field goal. Now we must look toward the future, begging the question on many NFL fans’ minds: Where is the 2024 Super Bowl? And what about other future destinations? Across the 57 Super […]

The Dallas Cowboys’ offseason is in full swing. They’ve already parted ways with offensive coordinator Kellen Moore and replaced him with Brian Schottenheimer. Roster turnover has begun, and will continue for the next few months. However, we all know the big star of the NFL offseason. It’s the reason we watch Senior Bowl practices in […]

Lost in the hype and discussion surrounding Deion Sanders’ first offseason in charge of the Colorado Buffaloes football team is the fact that Sanders and company had to put together a high school signing class as well. Much of the attention, at least from the outside looking in, was focused on the transfer portal, where […]

For the first time since 2018, the Tennessee Titans missed out on the playoffs in 2023. It was a run that included a trip to the 2019 AFC Championship Game and home playoff games in 2020 and 2021 for the first time since 2008. However, that era of Titans football seems to have come crashing […]

Tennesseee Titans fans, the offseason has come a bit earlier than normal hasn’t it? For the first time since 2018, the Titans failed to reach the playoffs, and failed to win the AFC South for the first time since 2019. Not only that, but the Titans seem to be at a crossroads. General Manager Jon […]

Georgia has quite the task on its hands. Stetson Bennett, after a legendary Bulldogs career which was capped with back-to-back national championships, is off to the NFL. This means that there is a 5-foot 11-inch 190 pound hole to fill under center in 2023. The college football transfer portal window has come and gone, and […]

The college football transfer portal window is officially closed! Players still can commit and enroll whenever their chosen institution allows them to, but no new players can enter the transfer portal starting Wednesday. There will be a second, shorter window that will open after spring practices, but for all intents and purposes, the transfer portal […]

Ole Miss fans, we have a quarterback battle on our hands in Oxford for the second year in a row.

Despite not reaching the College Football Playoff for the first time since 2019 and just the second time since the Playoff’s introduction in 2014, Alabama still had a roster loaded with NFL-caliber talent. Those players have now finished their respective careers for the Crimson Tide. They will now move on to bigger and better things […]

For TCU football, the College Football Playoff National Championship went about as horrible as it possibly could have. A matchup with Georgia produced the largest blowout in the history of any bowl game, let alone a national title game. However, it shows only how far Georgia is ahead of everyone else, not necessarily how far […]

Georgia football is currently in the midst of another long party following back-to-back College Football Playoff National Championships. For Georgia’s players, staff and fans, next season is a world away. The 2023 season is the least of their worries at the moment, and they couldn’t care less about it right now. However, it is never […]

With the ugly College Football Playoff National Championship between Georgia and TCU in the rearview mirror, now is the time to look into the future and make predictions that come this time next year could easily look laughable at best.

There has been quite a bit of speculation over the past few days about Jim Harbaugh’s future at Michigan after reports suggested he would be willing to accept a job offer from an NFL team should one arrive. Teams were tossed around, and their potential interest in Harbaugh was discussed, and the discourse just continued. […]

With four minutes to go in the Goodyear Cotton Bowl, USC football held a 45-30 lead over Tulane. The game looked to be in the bag. A fourth touchdown of the game for Tyjae Spears cut the Trojan lead to 8, but again, with a little over three minutes and a Heisman winner at quarterback, […]

Bowl season is upon us, culminating in the College Football Playoff. That means it’s time to make some college football bowl game picks and predictions.

There is a laundry list of players who have […]

The Matt Rhule era is underway at Nebraska, with hopes and dreams filling the hearts and minds of Cornhusker faithful across the country unlike any time in quite a while.

News broke on Thursday that the Rose Bowl had cleared its grievances and the path is now wide open for the College Football Playoff to expand to 12 teams starting in 2024. Until then, however, we’re stuck with the four-team format first brought to light in 2014. However, what’s the fun in waiting two years […]

Luke Fickell is now the head coach in Madison and will be leading the Wisconsin Badgers football program starting in 2023.

After six incredibly successful seasons at the helm, Luke Fickell has departed Cincinnati for Wisconsin ,with Kerry Coombs taking over as the interim coach.

There has been plenty of noise surrounding the possibility of Lane Kiffin bolting Ole Miss football for Auburn. But the latest reports from the Ole Miss side say Kiffin informed his team Wednesday evening that unless something significant changed, he would return as the Rebels’ head coach in 2023. While that certainly doesn’t shut the […]

It’s getting harder and harder to envision a world in which Lane Kiffin is not the next head coach at Auburn, even after his denials. Several reporters, on both the Auburn and Ole Miss side of things, find this to be the case. Numerous people unconnected to either program have also said the coaching world […]
