Soft Schedule Truth for JMU Football, Napier Year 1 Expectations & New Podcast Network Schedule | JMU Sports News Podcast
Description
Bennett and Jack are back for Year 9 of the JMU Sports News Podcast — and there's a lot to get into.
They rant on the fall wedding discourse taking over college football media, call out On3 and Bud Elliott for ignoring G6 programs, and break down why national perception still doesn't respect JMU's schedule or last year's Oregon result.
Plus: what actually defines a successful Year 1 for Billy Napier, a look back at some of the show's worst-ever takes (RIP 2018 Mike Houston "greatest team ever" take), Liberty week one starting lineup predictions, and a rundown of the new JMU Sports News Podcast Network schedule — including To The House Season 3 and the brand-new Purple Perspective.
