Show Notes
Eric Morris will leave North Texas to take the Oklahoma State job at the end of the season, sparking a debate: Is this the same as Lane Kiffin's situation at Ole Miss? Ralph and Bruce argue it's fundamentally different: G5 coaches are moving up with salary increases that could triple their pay, while Kiffin would be choosing between $12 million offers at blue blood programs.
Bruce shares his history with Morris dating back to his days as "the Elf" at Texas Tech, and explains how Morris discovered Baker Mayfield, Cam Ward, John Mateer, and Chandler Morris before anyone else wanted them. Will Morris could bring quarterback whisperer magic to Stillwater?
The latest CFP rankings show minimal movement after a clean weekend, but Ralph and Bruce game out chaos scenarios: What happens if Michigan beats Ohio State again? Could Oregon get bumped at 10-2? Would Texas Tech survive a Big 12 title game loss? Plus, they highlight breakout players ahead of Rivalry Weekend, and mailbag tackles whether paying players in 2000 would have prevented conference realignment and what on-field changes are transforming the game.
