I'd love someone with a greater knowledge and interest in college football. I'd also like someone with a more functional knowledge of baseball to offset Dan's ownership and statistical perspective.

The future holds the possibility to be great or terrible, and since it has not yet occurred it remains simultaneously both.

Exactly how much should they concentrate on college football in a market that doesn't care for any one team enough to discuss it all that much?

I think there are more than enough people interested in college football in their listenership. It doesn't have to be a discussion with a guy who says Go Cats at the end of his interview.

If a person knows how to talk about the subject, anything can be interesting. I'm lukewarm on college football at best, but Gerry DiNardo is a great listen.

Not sure. Goff was joking today about producers vying for his job, and he said something like "January 20th comes and they'll get my ass up outta here", and Spiegel laughed heartily. I don't know when books come out for these guys, so he may be referencing that, but my first impression was that he's talking about a new host at the station to take the spot created by Terry on the 5th.

Even if the 20th is completely unrelated to Terry's spot, I don't think they'll have someone ready by the 5th to do a full-time gig with Bernstein or in any other time slot.
