This week on the show, we catch up with Dave Campbell’s Texas Football editor-in-chief Greg Tepper as he gears up for another whirlwind season of road trips, small-town cafes, and Friday night lights. From opening night in Abilene to hidden gems like Santo, Tepper shares how he and Matt Stepp choose their high school football stops—and the quirky food traditions that come with them. The conversation shifts to college ball with tough news for Texas Tech: standout RB Quentin Joyner is sidelined, forcing the Red Raiders to lean on depth and test their offensive line early. We break down what that means for Joey McGuire’s squad, Baron Morton’s role at quarterback, and whether Tech can survive a running-back-by-committee approach. Plus, Tepper dives into the FCS landscape, where programs like Tarleton, ACU, and Incarnate Word could make national noise, and even a brand-new UTRGV program is ready to shine. And on the high school side, we spotlight two-way powerhouses like Refugio, Munster, and Shiner—along with hidden-gem stories like Wolf City’s record-chasing RB HD Davis. It’s wall-to-wall football talk, with a dash of diner recommendations and plenty of statewide perspective, as Texas gets set for kickoff.
Listen live to the voice of the Texas Longhorns and hall of fame broadcaster Craig Way, weekdays from 2-5pm.
