Heart of the Rivalry: Oh no, Hot Seat is back!

Heart of the Rivalry is a Blade-produced YouTube series and podcast available on all major platforms that covers the heart of college football through the sport’s own treasured programs of Ohio State, Michigan, Toledo, and Bowling Green. The weekly show is led by The Blade’s sports columnist, David Briggs, with co-host/producer Phil Kaplan. In this episode, no one’s favorite segment is back: Hot Seat! Though our respective program leaders are all in good graces, the wild, wild life of any college football coach in today’s business can be a road to nowhere.  So we revisit program histories when the hot seat took coaches to the river mid-season.  Briggs finds fine Italian in Idaho. Phil has a unique marching band experience with David Byrne. And there are cameos from Lewis & Clark, Toledo Tom Amstutz, Earl Bruce, and of course many, many talking heads.  All that and more from Heart of the Rivalry, the only show to cover exclusively the rivalry programs of Bowling Green and Toledo, as well as Michigan and Ohio State.
