Throwbacks with Matt Leinart & Jerry Ferrara

The legendary Kordell Stewart joins the show to talk his new HBO Max documentary Kordell Stewart / Slash & Burn. The Colorado grad remembers his time back in Boulder and tells the story of the Miracle at Michigan, which he and Matt decide is the greatest pass in the history of college football. Kordell also discusses his recruiting to Colorado, how much he could have made if NIL existed at the time, his NFL Combine experience and when he decided he was a quarterback despite everything else he could do on the football field. Plus, Matt and Jerry look back at the hilarious episode with Tiffani Thiessen and recall some of the greatest beefs between athletes and media.
