Wow. Ole Miss has a kicker that is a real weapon. I don’t know what that feels like as a fan

One of my broadcasting favorites. And when his voice cracks out of excitement, it’s magical stuff

I was impressed with Indiana before this game. Even more so as I watch them dismantle Alabama today. Cignetti is a wizard.

This is why @ReceDavis is one of the best. Proof that great, creative writing matters.

Ohio football has their guy and #HireHauser is what they did. John Hauser has been named head coach. Great call by new AD Slade Larscheid. Program has been historically good recently and Hauser has been a part of that run of success!

This would be a great hire for TTUN. So naturally, hoping it doesn't happen.

Hate to see Chase go but what a way to make your mark in Athens. Bobcats developed a good one and excited to see where he ends up!

Group of 5 programs to win 40+ games the last 4 years (since 2022): • JMU • Ohio • Tulane The 40 wins in that span is the BEST four-year stretch in Ohio football history by four (4) games. Historic run for that senior class in Athens.

Multiple “Hire Hauser” chants erupted from the team postgame. Multiple players went to tell AD Slade Larscheid that the proof is there. There is unbelievable support around this program to promote John Hauser and in the portal era, that means something.
After a game like that where John Hauser’s defense dominates and an entire team shows up for him during a wild three weeks, there is no question who should become the next head coach of this program. A statement was made tonight.

Bobcats get it done AGAIN in a bowl game. Great defensive performance against a great UNLV offense. Simply put, let’s just hire John Hauser and keep this train rolling. #OUOhYeah
