  • CFP releases 2026 & 2027 schedule + SEC quarterbacks’ fight for another year

    In the new world of college football there may be just as much action in the courtroom as there is on the field. The latest trend is if you want another season in college, after your eligibility is up, take it to the courtroom! The two most recent cases of that are Trinidad Chambliss and Joey Aguilar. Both of whom are waiting to see if they get an injunction that will allow them to play in the 2026 season. Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey explain both of these cases and update everyone with where the cases are in the process. They also take a look at the schools these quarterbacks are looking to go back to. Both schools have 5-star QBs waiting in the wings, which leads to the question: in the transfer portal era, are 5-star QBs better off going to a smaller school where to play right away and transferring later?

    Then, the guys get into some more College Football Playoff conversation. The CFP released the 2026 & 2027 schedule for the quarterfinals, semifinals and championship game. In 2026, the playoff spans over 39 days. Andy, Ross and Godfrey discuss the ludicrous schedule. They also talk about a potential savior being the NFL. With the NFL now owning a stake in ESPN, will they help out college football’s scheduling to make it a better product?

    Later, Andy shares the results of his homework assignment. Last episode, the guys discussed how weak Week 1 is to start the 2026 season. Andy shares his plan of how to move Oklahoma and Michigan to Week 1 to inject some energy into the opening weekend slate of games. The guys also close the show by discussing the Washington Post shutting down their sports division.

    All of this and more on College Football Enquirer.

  • The weirdest NBA trade deadline ever: The KOC Show explains everything that did & didn’t happen

    On today’s Kevin O’Connor show, we’ve got a trade-deadline special! Kevin O’Connor is joined by Tom Haberstroh to dissect any and all movement in the league before the 3 PM ET buzzer, going through the biggest winners and losers in what may be the weirdest trade deadline in NBA history.

    First, the pair discuss the Milwaukee Bucks’ decision to retain Giannis Antetokounmpo, and what that means for the landscape of the NBA–and for the future outlook of the Golden State Warriors, especially after the anticlimactic end of the Jonathan Kuminga saga. Were the Warriors the biggest losers of the trade deadline? Will another team arise in the summer to win the Antetokounmpo sweepstakes?

    Advertisement

    Next, they discuss the James Harden trade to the Cleveland Cavaliers, and if this move can bring the city of Cleveland to the Finals once again.

    Then, they muse on what exactly made this deadline so weird: multiple All-Stars being traded to bad NBA teams. They ask: why are bad teams trading for good players? Why are the Utah Jazz putting their top-8 protected first round pick in jeopardy? Why such a paltry return for Anthony Davis, who was traded for Luka Doncic just last year?

    Plus, they cover all the bases with the more local trades made, from the Chicago Bulls picking up 9 second round picks to the Boston Celtics acquiring their long-coveted big man in Nikola Vucevic. Plus more questions: why didn’t the Sacramento Kings trade for Ja Morant? Why did the Philadelphia 76ers let go of Jared McCain? All that and much, much more on today’s KOC Show!

  • Thomas Frank Sacked! Our Replacement Picks + Brandon Vazquez on ACL Recovery & World Cup Pressure

    Subscribe to The Cooligans

    Tottenham have parted ways with Thomas Frank, and the big question is: was he really the problem? The boys dig into what’s actually happening at Spurs, whether the issues run deeper than the head coach, and which managers could realistically step in to fix things. Is this about tactics, recruitment, ownership — or something bigger?

    Advertisement

    Then Austin FC striker Brandon Vazquez joins the show for an honest and revealing conversation. He opens up about recovering from his ACL injury, doing “quick maths” in his head about the World Cup timeline the moment he got hurt, and what it will take to fight his way back into the U.S. Men’s National Team picture. Vazquez also shares what it was really like playing in Liga MX — from nonstop media attention to the intensity of fan culture — and how it compares to MLS. Plus, we get the full origin story of his “Superman” goal celebration (yes, including the capes).

    To close it out, the boys react to the 2026 MLS kit reveal and give their unfiltered best and worst picks. Which clubs nailed it? Which designs should’ve stayed in the concept phase? We’re handing out praise, roasting questionable choices, and ranking the fits you’ll be seeing all season long.

  • 2026 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am purse, payouts: Collin Morikawa birdies late to grab win in signature event

    Collin Morikawa’s dry spell is over.

    Morikawa survived a packed leaderboard, and a late push from Scottie Scheffler, to claim the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am on Sunday afternoon. It marked his first win since the 2023 season.

    Advertisement

    Morikawa posted a 5-under 67 in the final round to get to 22-under on the week. That gave him a one-shot win over the field in the first signature event of the PGA Tour season. As a result, Morikawa is taking home a $3.6 million check.

    Morikawa had to birdie the final hole to pick up his win, thanks to late charges from Min Woo Lee and Scottie Scheffler, who rallied from eight shots back to get into contention. Scheffler, the top-ranked golfer in the world, made three eagles on the day to get to T4.

    Morikawa has now won seven times in his career, though it was his first since the Zozo Championship nearly 850 days ago. He was incredibly emotional after the win, too, and revealed on CBS that he and his wife, Katherine, are now expecting their first child.

    Here’s how much Morikawa and the rest of the field this week at Pebble Beach.
