  • UFL Expansion 2027: Michigan Panthers Talk and the Boise Deal That Never Happened — Plus Greg Parks on Birmingham and Houston

    Mike Repole has said he'd bring the Michigan Panthers back if the right building existed, and Detroit just broke ground on a 15,000-seat stadium that lands inside his own venue rule. Boise is the one UFL expansion market that already got to a term sheet — back in 2025, before the league went a different direction. Nothing is decided in either case. Plus Greg Parks joins the show with the 2026 UFL fan survey numbers and his honest read on the league pulling out of Birmingham and Houston, and I stopped by the UFL Showcase in Washington DC.

  • UFL Leaving Birmingham and Houston — Two Open Markets for 2027 and Where the Teams Could Go

    The UFL is leaving Birmingham and Houston for the 2027 season. Mike Repole says the Birmingham Stallions decision was 100 percent about the wrong sized venue, and the winningest franchise in modern spring football — three titles, 37-13 — will not play in 2027. We break down the UFL market realignment, the attendance numbers behind it, the hiring board that gave it away two weeks early, and my list of where the two open UFL markets should go.

  • How the UFL Actually Grows: Influencers, Expansion & the Kings' Title Run | UFL Week In Review

    The season is over, the Louisville Kings are champions — so what's next for the UFL? On this offseason edition of UFL Week In Review, Mark makes the case that the league's real path forward isn't TV commercials or bigger marketing budgets. It's leaning on the people already doing the work: the podcasters, YouTubers, and creators covering these teams every week. The Disney influencer model, why Pat McAfee or Tom Brady should own a franchise, where the league should expand next, and the attendance numbers that tell the real story of the season.


    Plus a behind-the-scenes look at championship weekend is dropping soon, so stay tuned for that.
