U40: Zac Alley gone. What is happening inside the Switzer Center?

Author: SoonerScoop.com December 31, 2024 Duration: 1:33:11
It's the SchwabMeat.com Unofficial 40. We've been a little all over the place with podcasts lately, so here we are again. Zac Alley has left Brent Venables for West Virginia. The gang is here to breakdown what happened as we know it. What does this mean for the future and more importantly, what does this say about the direction of the program under Brent Venables? The changes in this football program are going to make things look a lot different as NIL and front office personnel become a reality. Carey and George breakdown what's happening and why that will affect everything moving forward. And other staff changes coming? We talk about potential changes in the coaching staff and on the faculty side. As things stand, Venables is going to get another year to try and fix this football program. But can it be fixed? We also talk about Joe Castiglione's role in all of this. It's an informative pod, but maybe not the easiest listen to get through all the things going on inside the OU football program. We do lighten things up with tales from Eddie and George's weddings they were attending while all this was going down. And George is taken to the court of public opinion after potentially betraying Carey after he was given Christmas gifts. Also George ran into the infamous Grimlock at his wedding.
