Nice show guy's. As far as Seth coming back I think unless something completely catastrophic happens in the Bowl game he is back so let's hope for the best. I do agree a QB has to be the top target in the transfer portal. Also, I think it's critical that he gets in here for the Spring. We also must add a QB coach who can develop whoever we have.

Why is there a picture of Steph?

More importantly why is there a picture of Junior Miller? A UNT grad that has next to no love for his alma mater? No thanks. At least George is a diehard

[ADLER]

Wow guys, great fun podcast.

I don't think there has been enough discussion concerning what a huge opportunity a local bowl victory could do to launch this program. A green-out show of force, gazillions of green pom-poms, with all the pomp and ceremony of major college football, could be exactly what we need to activate our alumni base.

The team needs to do their part and win the game.

The rest of us need to help with the planning, promotion, and propaganda.

I want this to be one hell of a big Green celebration.

Maybe if I tag her she will appear like the Ghost of Christmas Past @SSP

With a transfer qb commit it will be interesting to see who leaves. I really hope Ruder stays and battles it out. Spring ball is a must. GMG

Trial by fire doesn't always work, especially in a function where so much synchronicity is involved. 

There's a reason that Ruder was a 4* recruit, the top quarterback prospect in Kansas, and why he moved so quickly up the depth chart at North Carolina with very acceptable statistics.

What we saw was a quarterback thrown into the starting role two weeks after arriving on campus. He had very few repetitions in this offense, and after a couple of early interceptions, started forcing the ball to make up for mistakes. That obviously didn't work.

Jace will now have a spring season to get in sync with his receivers and will soon be ready to show us what he's actually capable of accomplishing.

That is what I’m hoping for, but his throwing motion scares the hell out of me!

[Mean Green 93-98]

Talk about a hot take--LSU just poaches away Notre Dame's all-time winningest coach, and Harry says they have to settle for "that Kelly guy."

I miss the podcast being in the Apple feed.  Maybe I just don’t know how to do it, but in the current distribution, I can’t save where I left off (I.e. if I can’t listen to the whole thing in one sitting).

I get a chuckle when people mix metaphors.  Evan’s comment about “beating a dead drum” made me laugh.  Not sure if it was intentional or not.  
Great stuff guys!

I do too. Never understood why they disabled the libsyn distribution. Front of their (libsyn) page advertises 100% compliance with Apple’s feed, plus all other major platforms.

Thanks! It must have moved.  Sharing a screenshot of the old feed, just so I know I'm not going crazy.

^This.  Thanks @MeanGreenDan.  Looks like they created a new “show”.

[jtm0097]

Interesting note at the end of the podcast about the stealth recruiting of a QB. I'm interested to see who this might be.
