WHO KILLED COLLEGE FOOTBALL?, A SIX-PART PODCAST BY STEVEN GODFREY AND RYAN NANNI, DISTILLS THE DECADES OF CORRUPTION, STUBBORNNESS, AND DARKLY COMIC DYSFUNCTION IN THE SPORT TO OFFER A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF HOW WE ARRIVED AT THIS PLACE OF INTENSE UPHEAVAL, WHERE THE ONLY GUARANTEE IS MORE CHANGE.
