Normally our summer specials are about introducing new head coaches. But instead this time, we'll start with Denver's David Carle, who is always a good conversation because of his passion and knowledge about many topics -- particularly in areas where he wants to see growth in the sport. That includes the NCAA Regional format debate (Part 47), but also transfer portal, revenue sharing with players, and the prospectus for his team's 2025-26 season. The Pioneers should be in good shape again to chase an 11th national championship.
