Today was a cruddy day. Let’s podcast through it.

Topics:

  • Herm Edwards: the exception to every rule
  • Why suspend Bob Davie for a month?
  • Brent Venables to Kansas State eventually? a) Does he even want to be a head coach? And b) don’t limit yourself to Bill Snyder guys, Kansas State.
  • The benefits of having a much larger base of data than you used to.
  • Can success in other sports help your football program (spoiler: no).
  • The coach interview process.
  • GLOBAL WARMING IS WRECKING FOOTBALL ATTENDANCE (seriously ... well, sort of seriously)
