Josh Pate, known for his sharp analysis and steady presence in the college football media landscape, is set to bring his popular College Football Show to On3/Rivals in 2025.

The move comes as part of a new content and distribution partnership that links Pate with two of the fastest-growing digital brands in the sport, while also introducing a fresh broadcast setup from Yahoo! Sports’ newly built studio inside On3’s Nashville headquarters.

Pate’s move elevates the reach and authority of his show by blending On3’s analytical strength with Rivals’ renowned recruiting intel. On3 becomes the exclusive source for transfer portal data on the show, while Rivals takes the lead on high school recruiting coverage. Simultaneously, Yahoo! Sports will act as a distribution partner, streaming the program across both organizations’ platforms.

The new setup aligns with Pate’s existing digital presence on YouTube and podcast feeds, which have established him among the top voices in college football commentary. Producing his program from Nashville places him at the center of On3’s operational hub, offering greater technical support and strategic alignment.

Shannon Terry, CEO of On3/Rivals, praised the partnership as “a major step forward,” highlighting the combination of trusted reporting and broad distribution via Yahoo. Pate echoed that sentiment, calling the move an opportunity to serve fans with the depth and insight they expect, backed by the runways of digital media infrastructure.

As college football heads into 2025, the enhanced collaboration brings premier analysis, recruiting intelligence, and live show production under one roof. With On3’s data capabilities, Rivals’ national reach, and Yahoo! Sports distribution, Josh Pate’s College Football Show is positioned to grow its influence among fans, insiders, and the broader media.
