BIG 12 SQUAD - Colorado Buffaloes Transfer Portal CHAOS

Can Red Raiders’ big-spending approach shake up the conference power dynamic, or will the “Lubbock tax” backfire? Drake Toll and the panel evaluate top transfers, from Michael Hawkins Jr. joining West Virginia’s new quarterback room to Colorado’s shift from chasing blue blood flameouts to proven Group of Five and FCS talent under Deion Sanders. The coaching carousel takes center stage as Utah icon Kyle Whittingham bolts for Michigan, raiding both Utah and BYU’s staffs and leaving the Big 12 reeling. The hosts break down the fallout for Morgan Scalley, Mark Harlan’s hot seat, and whether Michigan will embrace Whittingham’s culture—or repeat the Rich Rodriguez saga. With Oklahoma State’s portal class and Houston’s “get the band back together” strategy, the Big 12 enters an era of rapid transformation. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
