Why NC State Wants Philip Rivers + 24-Team Playoff - Tuffy Talk Live

Tuffy Talk — Wed, 11 Nov 2026 00:00:00 GMT

Philip Rivers has never coached a college game, so why is NC State all in? Follow the money. All four of us get into what Rivers means for NIL (name, image and likeness) money, donors, TV slots and maybe even College GameDay, plus who he should and shouldn't bring onto his staff.

Then the College Football Playoff goes to 24 teams and kills the ACC Championship Game, and we ask whether conferences even matter anymore. Plus Grinds My Gears on the clickbait, Ethan's take on Rivers' floor at NC State, Joe Thuney heading into the Ring of Honor, Khamil Pierre's career-high 34 at Kentucky, men's soccer beating Wake Forest, and swimming and diving winning the first College Swimming League title.

What percentage of his games will Philip Rivers win at NC State? Find us on Twitter and Instagram @tuffytalknow.

Gainey Wins His Debut + Where Philip Rivers Stands - Tuffy Talk Live

Tuffy Talk — Wed, 04 Nov 2026 12:00:00 GMT

Justin Gainey's first game as NC State's head coach ended in an 83-64 win over Campbell, and Ven-Allen Lubin didn't miss a shot. Then we turned to football: why NC State still hasn't named a head coach, what Philip Rivers would cost, and which coaches and players the next staff should keep.

Lubin finished with 20 points, 8 of 8 from the field, 3 of 3 from three and 10 rebounds, and Christian Hammond gave the Pack a spark off the bench. On the football side, we get into the emptiest Carter-Finley crowd any of us can remember, why NC State needs a real general manager, and whether Rivers and his son Gunner should come at a discount. Plus women's basketball's 80-50 win over Wofford, a 31st ACC title for women's cross country, and Duke week.

Since we recorded, Russell Wilson has interviewed for the football job too.

Which assistant coach would you keep for the next staff? Find us on Twitter and Instagram @tuffytalknow.
