Costellanos led the Eagles to a 28-13 upset win at Florida State on Monday. He talks about making the transition to play for longtime NFL coach Bill O'Brien, why he stayed at Boston College after the coaching change and what he plans to do to make a name for himself.

Harrell became UNC's QB1 after Max Johnson suffered a season-ending leg injury in their opening win over Minnesota. He talks about learning while being a backup to Drake Maye, who was taken third overall in the NFL draft by the New England Patriots. And the difference between preparing knowing he's the starter as opposed to being ready as a backup.

This week's episode of The C.L. Brown Show features CBS Sports' Chip Patterson. Patterson breaks down what changes Louisville football has to make after losing receiver Caullin Lacy to injury; why he puts the Cardinals in contention to repeat their visit to the ACC championship game and where Kentucky fits in an SEC with two more powerhouse programs in Texas and Oklahoma to try to navigate.

This week's episode of The C.L. Brown Show features former Louisville football players Jack Plummer and Jawhar Jordan.

Plummer explains what keeps him from putting too much pressure on himself and the biggest difference between college football and the NFL.

This week's episode of The C.L. Brown Show features former Trinity High School and University of Louisville quarterback Will Stein, who now serves as the offensive coordinator at Oregon.

Stein shares memories of legendary Trinity coach Dennis Lampley, who died last month. He also recalls the trouble the game Call of Duty 3 got the Cardinals into with former U of L head coach Charlie Strong.

This week's episode of The C.L. Brown Show features Louisville men's basketball coach Pat Kelsey, who replaced Kenny Payne after just two years at the helm.

He also reveals how he came to choose the black rimmed glasses that are quickly becoming part of his character.

This week's episode of The C.L. Brown Show features former Louisville guard Russ Smith, who is playing for The Villein The Basketball Tournament beginning this week at Freedom Hall.

Smith explains what advice he'd give to the current Cardinals as they try to quickly bond under first-year head coach Pat Kelsey. Smith talks about his venture into his own bourbon brand, Mr. & Mrs. And why after a decade since former coach Rick Pitino coined the nickname "Russdiculous," it still lives on in the most unlikeliest of places.  

This week's episode of The C.L. Brown Show features Alexis Cubit, the University of Louisville football beat writer at The Courier Journal.

This week's episode of The C.L. Brown Show features Bellarmine men's basketball coach Scott Davenport, who has guided the Knights through their transition to Division I. 

The former Louisville assistant coach, under Hall of Famers Denny Crum and Rick Pitino, explains why he'd like to continue to face the Cardinals every year. He also details what the House v. NCAA settlement could mean for Bellarmine and why he held an NCAA Tournament Selection Show viewing with his team last season, even though they weren't eligible to make the field. 

As a father whose son, Doug Davenport, is the coach in waiting, he also explains why he respects how LeBron James got his son, Bronny, drafted by the Los Angeles Lakers, but why he has reservations.
