JP breaks down the surprising power plays, the financial realities, and what this means for the next wave of major college coaching hires.

Transfer Portal & Recruiting Insights: Matt shares behind-the-scenes perspective from his work with athletes and families. There's a system — and a science — to recruiting success. Player Development Talk: How to recognize the next big-time QB early, and why eighth grade is often when separation begins.

Quarterback Breakdown: Deep dive into Bo Perbula's throwing mechanics, leadership, and comparisons to other QBs in the SEC.
