Open For Business: College Football w/ John Kurtz
College sports for fans who like to dig a little deeper.
Welcome to Open For Business, a show covering college sports from every angle, on and off the field.
I spent more than a decade traveling the country as a radio and TV broadcaster covering college football and basketball full time. Now I break down the games, the playoff race, coaching decisions and program-building that define Saturdays, along with the transfer portal, NIL, realignment, media money and the bigger forces reshaping college sports behind the scenes.
The goal is to understand the entire landscape, not just the biggest brands and loudest storylines. If something matters to where the sport is going, it matters here.
