Unfortunately, this embedded content is not available in your region. On a recent episode, Dan Wetzel, Ross Dellenger, and SI’s Pat Forde discussed the future of the SEC after a busy offseason. They talked about the impact of Oklahoma and Texas joining the conference and how it has shifted the dynamic among coaches and administrators. The group also delved into the question of who will be the next standout head coach after Nick Saban’s retirement in January.

Dellenger highlighted some names to watch, including Steve Sarkisian at Texas, Kirby Smart at Georgia, and Josh Heupel at Tennessee. They also reacted to news about potential legislation in North Carolina that would require UNC and NC State to play smaller in-state programs annually. Wetzel suggested a way for the schools to negotiate more funding to agree to this requirement.

To finish the episode, Wetzel shared a humorous story about a woman in Nebraska who was mistakenly pronounced dead and later discovered to be alive at a funeral home. The hosts jokingly attributed her “resurrection” to the Nebraska football program. The episode covered a range of topics from coaching changes to state legislation and bizarre news stories.
