The Tim May Show featuring Clay Hall is back with a packed episode covering the biggest sports stories of the weekend. Tim May, Clay Hall, and Jeff Snook break down Super Bowl LX, a game that turned into a defensive masterclass for three quarters before exploding into a wild fourth-quarter scoring frenzy as Seattle ultimately held off New England.

The crew dives into what stood out from the Super Bowl, what didn’t live up to the hype, and Jeff Snook reveals which prop bets paid off in a big way. Surprisingly—or maybe not—the halftime show barely makes the agenda as the focus stays locked on football.

They also tackle the second biggest storyline from Sunday: Lindsey Vonn’s frightening crash. Rather than sensationalizing the moment, the conversation centers on what her decision to compete represents, the risks elite athletes take, and why her presence still matters in the sport.

The show wraps with a tough discussion for Buckeye fans as Ohio State basketball drops its second straight loss to Michigan. The panel examines what’s gone wrong, what’s fixable, and whether concerns about the Jake Diebler era are beginning to feel legitimate.

From the Super Bowl to skiing to college hoops, this episode delivers strong opinions, sharp analysis, and classic Tim May Show storytelling.

Jeff Snook joins Tim to talk a little Ohio State football and a lot of Super Bowl. Primarily, Tim's good buddy weighs in on where he's in terms of prop wagers regarding New England and Seattle in Super Bowl LX. Of course, former Ohio State stars Jaxon Smith-Njigba, TreVeyon Henderson and Mike Vrabel figure heavily in the conversation.

Brian Hartline joins Clay and Tim to talk about a lot of things, starting with gaining that coveted career bump to head coach for the first time for South Florida.

Of course, the timing of it all, on Wednesday for Ohio State in its Big Ten Championship game with Indiana, which also happened to be the first day of the December signing period for the Buckeyes' 2026 recruiting class, could have been better.

But he's settled in now during a frenetic two months that included USF recruiting, transfer portal juggling, and - oh yes - hiring 45 or more coaches, coaching assistants, administrative staff, and the like. What a ride!

Mike Vrabel has led the New England Patriots back to the Super Bowl in his first season as head coach.

His former Ohio State teammate Ryan Miller isn't overly surprised, though it takes a little luck along the way to get there, too.

But Miller joins Tim to talk about what he could see coming from Vrabel way back when they were teammates at OSU in the mid-90s, when those John Cooper recruiting classes and teams buoyed the Buckeyes back to prominence.

And Miller, Vrabel and Luke Fickell had such a bond that in 1999 they founded the Second and Seven Foundation, whose primary focus was the promotion of reading aloud to second graders and providing them with books, and which has grown to national impact through these last three decades, with all three still very much involved.

Bill Bender of The Sporting News joins Clay and Tim to talk a myriad of subjects, starting with the Pro Football Hall of Fame snub of 6-time Super Bowl-winning coach Bill Belichick as a first-ballot member.

Plus, we continue to chronicle the chaos of major college football off the field, including the Darian Mensah and Dabo Swinney episodes.

What the hell is going on? Where are the authorities?

It’s a lively Monday edition of The Tim May Show featuring Clay Hall — with Jeff Snook stepping in while Clay has a well-earned snow-day.

🟥 Tim May and Jeff Snook open the show with a tribute to Mike Vrabel, who has guided New England’s once-proud franchise back to the Super Bowl.
🟥 The conversation then shifts to Ryan Day’s hire of Arthur Smith, the longtime NFL offensive coordinator now tasked with elevating Ohio State’s offense.
🟥 Plus: a look at the Buckeyes’ heavy presence in the Super Bowl, what it says about the program, and why Ohio State’s NFL pipeline remains elite.

As always when Tim and Jeff get together, the discussion is spirited, opinionated, and packed with insider perspective you won’t hear anywhere else.
