RISON - This week's Free Range Conversations podcast features host Britt Talent discussing the upcoming Rison Wildcat football season with Murry Freeman and Bruce Grubb, hosts of the weekly game broadcasts on KQEZ 102.3 FM radio station in Fordyce.
The podcast coincides the the release of the Herald's annual Cleveland County Football tabloid, which can also be viewed online at clevelandcountyherald.com. The tabloid provides a preview of the upcoming season for both the Wildcats and Woodlawn Bears, who are coming off a 2025 season that saw them make the eight-man state finals.
Rison is coming off a 3-7 season that saw the 'Cats miss the playoffs for the first time in a two decades. However, the podcast crew expects a significant turnaround this year as some standout sophomores and freshmen join the team in addition to a key move-in from White Hall.
