Introducing: Murder at The U

January 26, 2026 · 2 min

Show notes

In 2006, Bryan Pata was a senior defensive tackle for the University of Miami with a bright future ahead of him. The NFL was right around the corner, and he was months away from being able to buy his mom a house. Instead, one night in early November, Bryan was shot dead outside his apartment complex coming home from practice.

 

From 30 for 30 Podcasts, Murder at The U tells the story of the shocking, high-profile murder investigation that rocked the college football world and what happened when a team of ESPN reporters brought that investigation into the light.

 

Who killed Bryan Pata? Twenty years later, someone is finally on trial. First two episodes drop Thursday, 2/12.
