Colin’s top takes of the week!

First he’s joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out”!

They begin with the NFL and what to expect from a 49ers team that finally hit the reset button after making trades and cutting key players as a contract extension for Brock Purdy looms (2:45). 

They discuss why the Bears making several moves to address their offensive line shows that the franchise is getting a much needed change of culture under head coach Ben Johnson and are headed in the right direction (10:30). 

Finally, they discuss Jim Harbaugh’s strategy of overdrafting offensive lineman, why the Chiefs struggles on the O-line will cause them to take a step back in 2025, and Colin explains why he LOVES the Najee Harris signing by the Chargers (16:15). 

Then, Colin’s joined by legendary sportswriter and New York Times best-selling author Ian O’Conner!

They start with how Rick Pitino was able to take over at St. John’s and turning the program into one of the best in the country, and why he’s one of the greatest college basketball coaches of all-time (31:00). 

They pivot to Duke and why the team was able to retain its status as a top college basketball program under Jon Scheyer after legendary coach Mike Krzyzewski retired, and what makes Scheyer such an effective coach (35:30).

Finally, they move to the NBA and discuss why the Knicks were able to build their best team in years but still needing to make moves to get over the hump and win a title, and whether coach Tom Thibodeau can survive an early round playoff exit (39:45).
