Lane Kiffin is now at LSU, Kalen DeBoer is leading Alabama into a new era, and college football is changing fast. Jake Coker and Mick Gillispie break down the biggest stories across college football, recruiting, Alabama football, LSU football, Ole Miss, and the latest NCAA rule changes.

The guys react to Lane Kiffin’s comments about recruiting in Mississippi, the challenges tied to history, perception, and program identity, and how his time at Ole Miss changed the Rebels’ national profile before his move to LSU. They also discuss Kiffin’s career as one of college football’s most fascinating coaches — a proven winner with a controversial past and massive expectations in Baton Rouge.

Jake Coker also weighs in on Steve Sarkisian’s “basket weaving” comments, the reality of academics in college football recruiting, and his own experience graduating from Florida State in three years while balancing life as a quarterback.

The conversation then shifts to Alabama football, where Coker and Gillispie discuss why the Crimson Tide brand remains bigger than any one coach, even Nick Saban. They explain why Kalen DeBoer’s professional, business-like approach could fit perfectly in Tuscaloosa, why his quarterback recruiting matters, and why Ty Simpson’s intelligence and accuracy could be key for Alabama’s future.

Plus, the guys break down major NCAA rule changes, including the new targeting suspension policy and the rare fair catch free kick/field goal rule that could create wild end-of-game moments.

Subscribe for more college football talk, Alabama football analysis, SEC recruiting breakdowns, and conversations with Jake Coker and Mick Gillispie.

What are the best movies from six of the greatest directors ever?

Lance Taylor and Tyler Johns go filmmaker by filmmaker through the careers of Quentin Tarantino, Martin Scorsese, David Fincher, Paul Thomas Anderson, Stanley Kubrick, and Christopher Nolan to choose the films that best define each director.

From Tarantino’s pop-culture-changing Pulp Fiction to Scorsese’s gangster classic Goodfellas, Fincher’s dark thriller Seven, PTA’s powerhouse drama There Will Be Blood, Kubrick’s horror landmark The Shining, and Nolan’s massive historical epic Oppenheimer, this episode is a full movie-lover deep dive.

The guys also discuss the difference between a director’s “best” movie and their personal favorite, why some films age better than others, and how certain movies reshape an entire genre.

Before the main topic, Lance and Tyler review recent viewings including Who Will Stop the Rain?, Marathon Man, Billy Idol Should Be Dead, Hooper, Widow’s Bay, Mortal Kombat 2, and Batman Beyond.

Jake Coker and Mick Gillespie are back with a wild mix of college football talk, competitive eating stories, NIL drama and celebrity encounters.

Mick shares the unbelievable story of officiating a bologna-eating contest where Joey Chestnut crushed 16 pounds of bologna in eight minutes to set a new world record. The guys also revisit Chestnut’s rivalry with Kobayashi, including Joey’s dominant 83-66 win in their 2024 Netflix showdown.

Then the conversation shifts to college football, where Alabama’s win total is getting attention. MGM has the Crimson Tide set at 8.5 wins, but is that too low for Kalen DeBoer’s team — or realistic with Georgia, Tennessee, LSU and a brutal SEC schedule ahead?

Jake and Mick also discuss Alabama landing four-star linebacker Kenneth Simon II, the positive buzz around Kane Wommack’s defense, and what Jake is hearing through the grapevine about the Crimson Tide.

Plus, the guys break down Lane Kiffin’s Vanity Fair comments on Ole Miss, his move to LSU, the pressure inside Baton Rouge and whether LSU’s NIL machine can help Kiffin finally challenge Alabama at the top of the SEC.

Also on the show: Mick’s Tim Burchett story, UFO disclosure talk, the cutthroat NIL landscape, schools struggling to meet financial guarantees and Arkansas cutting its men’s and women’s tennis programs.

Topics include:

Alabama Football, Kalen DeBoer, Kane Wommack, Lane Kiffin, LSU Football, Ole Miss, Joey Chestnut, Kobayashi, Tim Burchett, NIL, SEC Football, Arkansas athletics cuts and more.

Where does Jake Coker stack up among Alabama’s best single-season passing leaders — and what does that list say about the evolution of Crimson Tide football?

On this episode of Last Call, the guys break down Alabama’s all-time single-season passing yard leaders, including Bryce Young, Mac Jones, Tua Tagovailoa, Ty Simpson, Blake Sims, AJ McCarron, Greg McElroy, and Jake Coker. The conversation turns into a bigger look at the Nick Saban era, Alabama’s championship standard, and why even a two-loss season felt like a disappointment under Saban.

Jake Coker reflects on the 2015 national championship team, what made that group so hungry, and how Nick Saban shaped players beyond football through accountability, toughness, and leadership. The guys also discuss Derrick Henry’s dominance, Saban’s place next to Bear Bryant, and the challenge Kalen DeBoer faces as Alabama enters a new era.

Plus, Coker shares stories on Byron Leftwich, Carson Palmer, the Senior Bowl, and his time in the NFL.

Fox Sports analyst Joel Klatt joins The Next Round for a must-watch deep dive into the biggest storylines shaping college football right now. From powerhouse programs to playoff expansion and rising coaching pressure, this conversation covers everything fans are talking about heading into the new season.

We kick things off with Kirby Smart’s eye-opening comments on why the Big Ten Conference has dominated recent national championships—and what it means for the Southeastern Conference moving forward. Then, Klatt weighs in on Kalen DeBoer and whether Alabama Crimson Tide football actually improved from Year 1 to Year 2 (his answer might surprise you).

We also break down the rapid rise of Curt Cignetti and how his early success at Indiana could be putting pressure on coaches across the country to win—and win big—right away. Plus, what does the future hold for the College Football Playoff as expansion looms?

Other topics include:

When was the true “golden age” of college football?

Can Ty Simpson thrive with the Los Angeles Rams?

Georgia Bulldogs head coach Kirby Smart made waves with his comments about the state of modern college football — and Mick Gillespie and former Alabama quarterback Jake Coker are breaking it all down.

Smart said the elite Alabama teams from 2012–2015 would “beat the dog out of” today’s college football teams because of one major difference: depth. He believes the game itself has not changed as much as the rosters have, with today’s programs forced to play younger, less-developed players because NIL, the transfer portal, and roster turnover have made it harder to build long-term depth.

Jake Coker gives his perspective as a former Alabama quarterback who played under Nick Saban and lived the “Saban Standard” firsthand. Coker discusses how NIL and the transfer portal have changed the culture of college football, why he believes the sport now feels more like “semi-pro football,” and how the loss of player development, senior leadership, and locker-room brotherhood has changed the way championship teams are built.

The conversation also dives into Coker’s memories of Alabama practices under Nick Saban and Scott Cochran, including the extreme physicality, mental toughness, and internal accountability that separated the Crimson Tide during its dynasty run. Coker also shares a classic story about one of Saban’s most intense practice rants and how Alabama’s championship culture was built from the inside out.

Are Kirby Smart and Jake Coker right? Would the best Alabama teams from the Saban dynasty dominate today’s college football? Or has NIL, the transfer portal, and modern roster management simply changed the sport forever?

Topics include:

🏈 Kirby Smart’s comments on Alabama’s roster depth

🏈 Would 2012–2015 Alabama beat today’s college football teams?

🏈 Jake Coker on NIL and the transfer portal

🏈 How college football became “semi-pro football”

🏈 The Saban Standard at Alabama

🏈 Nick Saban practice stories

🏈 Why roster depth and senior leadership mattered

🏈 Georgia football, Alabama football, and the future of the sport
