August 21 Putting It On Paper - The ThunderCast's Marshall Football 2-Deep
he 2026 season is almost here, and it’s time to put it on paper.
After spending the offseason breaking down every position group on Marshall’s roster, KD and Rus reveal **The ThunderCast 2-Deep** — our picks for the players we believe should fill out the depth chart when the Herd takes the field.
We go position-by-position through **offense, defense, and special teams**, laying out our starters, backups, toughest decisions, and the spots where competition could still shake things up.
This is **our 2-deep — not Marshall’s official depth chart.** It’s where we believe things stand heading into the 2026 season.
Who did we get right? Who did we miss? And who would you have in your 2-deep?
Drop yours in the comments.

August 15 S6 E8 "We've Got To Evolve." - Marshall AD Gerald Harrison Joins The ThunderCast
Marshall Director of Athletics Gerald Harrison is back on The ThunderCast — and there’s a lot to talk about.
Now entering his second year leading Marshall Athletics, Harrison sits down with KD and Rus for a wide-ranging conversation about what’s been accomplished, what’s coming next, and how Marshall continues to evolve in a rapidly changing college athletics landscape.
The conversation dives into From the Mountains, Not the Sidelines, the recently released paper co-authored by Harrison, Marshall President Brad D. Smith and Board of Governors Chair Kathy Eddy. Gerald breaks down Marshall Athletics’ goal of moving toward a 50/50 funding model, what that number actually means, and where the department sees opportunities for continued growth.
The guys also get into the new Marshall Athletics Ring of Honor, premium experiences like the Dutch Miller Deck and The Porch, the importance of the Big Green, Marshall’s continued academic success, and where Gerald believes the athletic department still has opportunities to get better.
And, of course, there’s plenty of Marshall conversation along the way.
One year into the job, Gerald Harrison has a clear message about the future of Marshall Athletics:
“We’ve Got To Evolve.”
