About this listen
We believe in an old college football theory: If a coach is going to win at his current job, he’s going to have a good second season. The exceptions, like Bill McCartney and Jim Harbaugh, prove the rule. This year, 28 FBS coaches enter their second season in charge of their programs. Who’s already banked enough goodwill to withstand a down year? Who’s doing fine, with a big year yet to come? And who got off on the wrong foot in 2024 and already needs a major improvement to get his tenure on track? From Curt Cignetti and Jon Sumrall to Sherrone Moore and Sean Lewis, let’s check in with our sophomore class.
Some episode highlights:
* A discussion of exactly where Mike Elko stands relative to expectations after a really nice debut season at Texas A&M
* Why Kalen DeBoer doesn’t fit neatly into any one category of Year 2 coaches
* Sherrone Moore looks very good at Michigan, but we’re watching for two things: the QB living up to the hype and the NCAA going away
* Yikes, Sean Lewis’ start at San Diego State was barren
* Same for Brent Brennan at Arizona
* At UCLA, is that a flicker of … hope? It might be
