We talk a lot on this show about strength and conditioning programs. It's a major topic of interest for Ryan and one that he knows a whole lot about, which means that when it's not being done well, he goes completely insane. Our show dynamic works because I have the exact same brain but for scheme. We talk a lot about bad scheme, and bad strength and conditioning programs. 

But what makes a good S&C staff? Why is Georgia able to produce the kind of results at the NFL combine that it does, while other programs produce subpar athletes relative to their recruiting rankings? In the most on-brand episode of Flipping The Field ever produced, we take a deep dive into what makes Georgia (and Alabama, Baylor, Utah State and others) so good at developing athletes, and what other programs could (and should) pick up from them.

It's just Patrick this week, as Ryan recovers from a difficult week of being the executive director of the Hue Jackson Foundation. That means it's time for an hour of increasingly unhinged talk about college football's innovation cycle, and what might be coming next in a sport that is seeing its new ideas come and go at an increasingly untenable pace.
