New AD Justin Moore joins the show for the (hopefully) first time to talk about his philosophy in running an athletic program, what drew him to Tulsa in the first place, NIL, how he views coaching performance, and more! But, before that – football is back baby! Matt and Ryan talk through the schedule, make their overall record predictions, and pick offensive / defensive / breakout players of the year.

All the names you need to know at every position for the 2024 Tulsa Football season. Who will start at QB? Why is Malachai Jones playing safety now? Will Braylin Presley finally break out? Is the defensive line the most underrated group on the team? Are the vibes around the team as good as they seem from the outside, or is it just standard preseason hype? We answer all these questions and more to kick off the SEVENTH (!) season of The Golden Hurricast. To help us figure it all out, we welcome Cayden McFarland onto the show for the fourth time. Cayden is the sports director for 2 News Oklahoma (KJRH) in Tulsa, and is one of the best folks out there covering TU sports these days. He’s also just an awesome guy to talk to. We get an initial vibe check on the team before talking about every position group and the names you should know at each spot. We close things down with a listener question and some record predictions.
