College football is being rebuilt behind closed doors. I went to Fayetteville to sit down with Arkansas GM Gaizka Crowley as he takes over one of the most important roles in the sport, and he opened up on what this job really looks like in the NIL era. The pressure, the decisions, and how rosters are actually built now. This is what it takes to build a championship program today and why everything is changing.

In this episode of Next Up with Adam Breneman, presented by Teamworks, Florida State General Manager of Personnel Darrick Yray joins Adam to break down how a modern college program actually builds a roster from high school recruiting vs. the portal, to retention as strategy, to culture built through competition. He shares the lesson he’s learned from Mike Norvell’s consistency, why comparing NIL/revenue sharing to the NFL is “lazy,” and the single trait he refuses to compromise: “Do you love football?”

Virginia Head Coach Tony Elliott joins Next Up with Adam Breneman to talk culture, NIL, portal strategy, and what it really takes to get UVA to Charlotte.

This week on Next Up with Adam Breneman, Mississippi State Head Coach Jeff Lebby joins the show to talk about the journey of rebuilding a program in the heart of the SEC.
