The FCS Edge

FCS Stock Report

Listen Later

There’s enough early season data for The FCS Edge co-hosts Craig Haley and Zach McKinnell to pinpoint where teams stand. Mostly, that is as some teams remain a puzzle in our "FCS Stock Report."

But in episode 6, Craig and Zach look across FCS nation to help identify the contenders and the pretenders.

Monmouth is one of the impressive teams. Hawks coach Kevin Callahan joins the show as a special guest to discuss being the FCS’ longest-tenured and winningest active coach, and to give insight on national passing leader Derek Robertson.

Here's what you can look forward to in "FCS Stock Report"
  • Monmouth football has evolved significantly since its inception.
  • Adapting to changes in college football is crucial for success.
  • The importance of conference races can't be overstated in FCS football.
  • Freshmen play a vital role in many FCS programs' success, including at Monmouth.
  • The FCS community is built around local rivalries and conference pride.
  • Coaches must be upfront and honest with players about the transfer portal.
  • The Ivy League race is competitive and often overlooked.
  • Upcoming games will provide more data points for evaluating teams.

    • As ever, Craig and Zach end the latest episode with their pick 'ems segment, as ranked-vs.-ranked matchups and historic games get the treatment. It's an episode you can ill-afford to miss.
