Whenever there's a split screen, like when Cube joins, it's almost like Josh has a desk again. Brings back memories of the old set that had a desk. Good times. Has anyone else noticed that there's no desk?

[elijahdaves]

I don't know whats worse...the playoff structure or the lack of desk...

[itsVVand]

Josh, love the new studio, but the desk was an iconic part of the show! It gave you that classic anchor vibe and made the conversations feel more grounded. Bring back the desk—it was one of the parts of what made the show unique! I'd give bringing back the desk in 2025.... 5.5 Chali.

[BreiterDays]

All I want for Christmas is for Josh to bring the desk back!

[RickAg]

Has anyone mentioned yet that there's no desk?

[blakeseymour]

Gonna start a GoFundMe for Pate State to get the desk back

[danduncan]

Ok I have to ask. Love the show. But so curious. What happened to the old set and can we get you a full desk Josh. The slash shot of the knees just throws me every time haha. Get this man a full desk lol

Part of the reason Dabo finally dipped into the transfer portal is because this past recruitment cycle they had a number of high school recruits lured to other programs with greater money offers, I.E. Graceson Littleton, Bryce Davis, Jordan Young etc. to Texas, Duke, and Michigan as well as the TP departures of Sherrod Covil, Troy Stellato and Noble Johnson.

Since we're talking about setting the studio up:

You fellas should change the color of the column lighting to match the Josh Pate sign lighting. They clash. Cool white and warm white.

Cheers. Go Dawgs.

Paper pops aren’t the same without the desk

[lingerinlead]

Much respect for the Paul Harvey reference.

[OGdoorstop]

The alien from signs hasn’t showed up in months and I’m pissed about it.

[chadhuskey]

As a die hard Carolina fan, I'd like to say thank you JP for giving some credit where it is due. Seems like a lot of sports commentators just don't like S.Carolina, you know, but that's okay as long as we have the unbias good guys like you man. Here's your flowers Josh 🎉. 😂😂 keep up the great work. ✌️👍🙏🐓🐓🐓

sending love from lubbock, love the show, this has been a fun week as a red raider student!

[johnlee]

Doing a segment on the best games is great.
In a year like 2024, it would seem like a best upset games also.

[rickysmith]

I was taken by a friend to the Academy Sports in Gadsden, Al. and it was great acres and acres of sporting goods. Thank you. God bless.

[lawrencematthes]

How about first things first. Not sure who the governing body is who dated the transfer portal at its present format, but whoever it is should fix that immediately. Seems to me it's a major issue at a time where the sport is hitting it's annual pinnacle. Which is the shinny new playoffs.

[tremoore]

That was the most epic Sarah Mclaughlin moment. The dirty bird and Mike Vick social media troll was next level!

[PARodrigOrtiz]

There was no truer analysis on this podcast episode than Cole Cubelic’s comments on the Elves on the Shelves. 😂

[elidames]

How do yall even notice the desk isnt there?
