Happy Birthday Nick Saban and College Football’s Communication Problems on The Joe Gait

Let’s host a Halloween edition of “The Joe Gaither Show on BamaCentral” as we celebrate a big anniversary, discuss a possible college football scandal and end with a discussion of the Heisman Trophy landscape.

We welcome Mason Woods as we celebrate former Alabama head coach Nick Saban’s 73rd birthday. Saban is no longer coaching in Tuscaloosa but his influence is still felt throughout the community and the world of college football. The conversation highlights how Saban influenced and impacted the host through three different audio clips.

After celebrating The Goat, the program turns to controversy as the college football world attempts to maintain its competitive integrity. This season, headset communicators were allowed on both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball. However, as the season progresses, concerns are growing within the Big 12 regarding the frequency security of these communications devices. Could someone hack a headset to cheat?

Finally the program ends with a discussion around the Heisman Trophy. The college football landscape has several stars, but no one has really separated themselves as a Heisman favorite. Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe had a rough October, but could a strong November see him in New York as a Heisman Trophy finalist?

We also have a little fun discussing our favorite Halloween costumes from our childhood to enjoy the holiday.

The show can be seen on BamaCentral YouTube channel. Follow each show on YouTube,Facebook And Twitter. Broadcasts can also be heard on Spotify, Apple PodcastsAnd Amazon.
