Joshua jumps in an escape pod from the Earned 5-Star mothership to have a quiet chat about Notre Dame Football and the transfer portal. In this episode:
The new normal.
The wide receiver situation.
The futility of breaking news and people doing their worst Pete Thamel impersonation.
Explanations that most people won't like.
A different way to look at the portal.
Terrible comments are terrible comments.
And plenty of other quick (and not so quick) thoughts mixed in throughout the show. It was only supposed to be 20 minutes...

Happy college football Saturday y'all! I just wanted to use the pod machine to give you guys a boost while you do your Saturday morning chores (or whatever) and it brought me down a fun little path.
Short and sweet... which former MAC football player do you wish you could swap out at Notre Dame during that same period? My own personal choice had me pounding away at some research (also known as Googling) and the results had me chuckling. My choice is GOOOOOOD. So have some fun with that.
BONUS... I was able to hide this episode from Jack Valor, and we finally have that Central Michigan preview from Brendan up and running for you. You know... if you were unsure if CMU was secretly trash or not. Enjoy!

Joshua wipes the dust off of the old Off The Rails studio, because he has a point to make (and he's been drinking). College football is fixing itself to be an entirely different sport than what we knew it to be just a decade ago - let alone the sport we first fell in love with as kids and young adults. So much of what has been done, and what is being done currently, is the opposite of what's good for the sport, and therefore evil. But where does this evil come from? What is the origin? Who is this bastard demon that St. Michael cast into hell with Satan and all the other evil spirits? Is it truly Notre Dame? There are a lot of arrows that point in South Bend's direction, and for good reason - but is it their fault?
Maybe.
As always... PLEASE RATE AND REVIEW! All reviews left on Apple Podcasts will be read on the next Earned 5-Star Podcast.
