In this week’s SZD Overtime episode for subscribers, we examine two programs that were dominant in the 2000s and are still, all these years later, trying to recapture some of their old magic. Florida lost to USF, endangering Billy Napier’s tenure once again. Virginia Tech dropped to 0-2 with losses to South Carolina and Vanderbilt and is staring down a failed hire in Brent Pry.

Richard and Alex discuss what’s gone wrong at Florida, why we’re still having these conversations four years into Napier’s tenure, and who would actually be in charge of firing Napier. Plus, we cover why Virginia Tech can’t get anything right post-Frank Beamer and why they’re now in an existential moment. Is Tech even a good job in 2025? Let’s talk about it. Producer: Anthony Vito
