Andy & Ari On3

Ari has unveiled his list of the coaches under the most pressure this season, and the three guys at the top are in Atlanta this week for SEC media days.(0:00-0:30) Intro(0:31-22:40) Ari's 10 coaches under most pressure(22:41-30:41) How good can Auburn be?(30:42-35:54) How much pressure is on Brent Venables(35:55-39:40) Sarkisian walks out to A&M War Hymn(39:41-41:10) Big Recruiting Day for Texas(41:11-51:49) Arch Manning takes over SEC media days(51:50-57:24) Sir Paul Cheeks commits to West Virginia(57:25-1:10:05) What would an executive order on NIL look like?(1:10:06-1:11:18) Conclusion: Dear Andy & Ari on Friday! Auburn’s Hugh Freeze sounded on Tuesday like a guy who understands the assignment, which is a shift from some of his comments earlier this year. He knows he needs to win with a roster that is better than Auburn has had in a long time. Wednesday, Oklahoma’s Brent Venables and Florida’s Billy Napier take the stage. Venables is probably under the most pressure. Napier lived through it last season, but he still has to show more improvement. Also, Arch Manning took media days by storm. OK, not really. He gave nice, polite answers and Andy is waiting for the more unfiltered stuff from Omaha productions. Late Tuesday, CBS News reported that President Donald Trump intends to sign an executive order related to college sports “in the coming days.” What does that mean? And what might that look like?

Meanwhile, LSU coach Brian Kelly talked about the pressure on the Tigers to win at Clemson in week one. Andy released his top 10 Big Ten QBs, and Ari has some critiques of the list.

What did he get right? What did he get wrong? Plus, the guys preview what questions they want to hear asked at SEC media days. Also, the schools’ attempt to control third-party NIL deals barely lasted two weeks before the House v. NCAA plaintiffs attorneys threatened to drag the conferences back into court.

Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy joins the show, and he’s not holding back.(0:00-2:33) Intro: Previewing Mike Gundy(2:34-17:43) Mike Gundy joins the show(17:44-18:52) Mike Gundy's rules for life(18:53-30:20) Discussion on Oklahoma State, Big 12(30:21-35:44) Do you lock your door?(35:45-50:39) New QBs you have most confidence/questions in(50:40-54:50) Sleeper G5 CFP teams(54:51-1:02:46) Baylor's Outlook with Dave Aranda(1:02:47-1:05:06) Emo Accent Deep Dive(1:05:07-1:31:38) Random Ranking: Songs You're Embarrassed That You Love(1:31:39-1:34:37) Conclusion: THANK YOU! Gundy explains why he thinks college football needs a collective bargaining agreement. He also makes some recommendations for a commissioner of the sport. He also offers a shocking — or maybe not-so-shocking — reason for Oklahoma State’s fall from 10 wins in 2023 to three wins in 2024. The Cowboys didn’t spend any money on transfer players before last season. Gundy said that has changed this season and Oklahoma State is operating more like the other teams in the Big 12. It’s also a Dear Andy/Dear Ari day, and you’ve asked some excellent questions. Which new starting QB are you most confident in? Who are some sleeper Group of 5 playoff contenders? Plus, The Random Ranking is in honor of Utah Spencer Fano’s rendition of Secondhand Serenade’s Fall For You at Big 12 media days. What are the five songs you’re most embarrassed to love?

Andy and Ari welcome their first billionaire to the show!(0:00-2:25) Intro: Big 12 Takeaways(2:26-13:14) Deion Sanders and "bulljunk"(13:15-34:02) Cody Campbell joins the show(34:03-39:15) Cody Campbell's impact(39:16-51:25) The message Colorado sent at media days(51:26-1:00:45) Is Utah a Big 12 contender?(1:00:46-1:02:10) Conclusion: Dear Andy & Ari tomorrow! Cody Campbell, the former Texas Tech offensive linemen who made his fortune in oil and gas — and who probably inspired two characters in the hit show Landman — joins to discuss his efforts to help his alma mater become a national title contender and his effort to reform college sports. These two things seem to be at odds with one another, and Cody explains that they are. He’d like to create a system that shuts down any potential super league and keeps all the current FBS schools supported, and he has an idea he thinks would make all of them more money. But in the meantime, he’s using the rules — or lack thereof — in the current system to help the Red Raiders fund a massive roster upgrade. Also, the boys didn’t get Deion Sanders on the show, but Ari talked to Colorado freshman QB Julian Lewis. Sanders brought Lewis, a highly touted freshman, and senior Liberty transfer Kaidon Salter to media days. It’s an unusual move, but Ari explains why it fits the vibe of the program.

Andy and Ari are back at Big 12 media days, and they’re talking about how much has changed in two years.(0:00-1:39) Intro: Day 2 of Big 12 Media Days(1:40-8:38) How far has the Big 12 come in 2 years?(8:39-12:33) Overview of the conference entering 2025(12:34-15:27) BYU's Outlook(15:28-21:47) Other competitors in the Big 12(21:48-26:28) Big 12 in the CFP discussion(26:29-36:01) Texas Tech HC Joey McGuire joins(36:02-41:26) Colorado at Media Days(41:27-43:42) Conclusion: Ari & Pop-Tarts Two years ago, Texas and Oklahoma were leaving and Ari was asking Brett Yormark if this was about to become a Group of 5 league. Now the league feels strong and stable. But the next step is creating national title contenders. How does that happen, and which schools are the best candidates to become those kinds of programs? Later, the guys talk to Texas Tech head coach Joey McGuire about the Red Raiders’ roster upgrades and a new focus on elite recruits.Watch our show LIVE, M-F at 9:30 am et! https://youtube.com/live/4RXNwmkWHoE Hosts: Andy Staples, Ari WassermanProducer: River Bailey Want to partner with the show?

That’s right. The long offseason is over. Ari wonders if we’re underrating a good group of Big 12 quarterbacks. Big Ten and SEC schools tried to get players like Baylor’s Sawyer Robertson and TCU’s Josh Hoover to enter the transfer portal. They stuck with their teams, but they probably aren’t getting as much shine as they’d be getting in those leagues. But it’s possible the Big 12 is the deepest QB league in the country. What questions should Andy and Ari ask coaches like Arizona State’s Kenny Dillingham, Baylor’s Dave Aranda and Utah’s Kyle Whittingham?

The boys are back live, and they’ve got a lot to discuss!(0:00-0:36) Welcome Back!(0:37-19:08) 5-Star OT Felix Ojo commits to Texas Tech(19:09-23:50) Story Time with Ari(23:51-28:08) Concluding Texas Tech discussion(28:09-39:59) Alabama's BIG Recruiting Week(40:00-47:27) Golfing or Fishing?(47:28-55:07) Jake Retzlaff Update(55:08-57:15) Charles Jagusah Injury(57:16-1:00:55) Conclusion: Big 12 Media Days this week! Five-star offensive tackle Felix Ojo committed to Texas Tech last week. Ojo’s agent said Ojo agreed to a guaranteed three-year deal worth $5.1 million. Texas Tech sources quickly responded, claiming the guaranteed portion of the deal is actually worth closer to $2.3 million over three years.The entire saga is fascinating. There was the usual hand-wringing about how this is ruining college sports, but would Ojo have agreed to go to Texas Tech any other way? Plus, the way the salary news leaked out has a very NFL-in-2005 feel to it. It shows that we who cover college football need to get more sophisticated. Also, BYU quarterback Jake Retzlaff is expected to enter the transfer portal. Retzlaff is leaving BYU rather than face a reported seven-game suspension for violating the school’s honor code. Meanwhile, Alabama is on a recruiting hot streak that looks like the Nick Saban days. The Crimson Tide had four top-50 players commit in the past two weeks.

Texas QB Arch Manning said Thursday that success for the Longhorns in 2025 would be an SEC championship and a national championship. He said it sitting next to LSU QB Garrett Nussmeier, and Manning acknowledged that Nussmeier feels the same way about what would constitute success for LSU.(0:00-0:58) Intro(0:59-4:00) How does Arch Manning define success?(4:01-9:40) Arch Manning or Garrett Nussmeier?(9:41-19:14) Pivot Points in the 2025 season(19:15-32:09) Could you beat Hugh Freeze at golf?(32:10-35:36) Where's River?(35:37-41:55) Transfer QBs to make a jump in year 2?(41:56-49:39) More Like championship scenarios?(49:40-53:44) Could Army build a contender?(53:45-1:05:39) Which SEC teams will be disappointed?(1:05:40-1:30:24) Random Ranking: Fictional Foods We'd Love to Eat(1:30:25-1:31:19) Conclusion Which QB has the better chance of reaching that goal?

Is college football headed for a similar level of competitiveness, or will a few teams still dominate the landscape. In the 11 seasons of the College Football Playoff, there have been six different champions (Ohio State, Alabama, Clemson, LSU, Georgia, Michigan). Is it possible the curve is flattening enough to have eight or nine different champs in 10 years?

Vanderbilt quarterback Diego Pavia continues to liven up the college football world, this time with a pledge on the Bussin’ With The Boys podcast that after this season Vanderbilt will “run” the state of Tennessee.

In the new age of college football, the title “general manager” means something different on every campus. Several schools have hired GMs and given them something similar to the power of an NFL GM.(0:00-0:22) Intro(0:23-19:44) Ron Rivera's Role at Cal, House Settlement(19:45-20:06) Watch our show on YouTube!(20:07-35:03) How will the house settlement impact spending?(35:04-39:30) Update on the mystery at Ari's House(39:31-43:38) Putting a bow on the GM discussion(43:39-52:06) Jake Garcia signs with Michigan(52:07-53:59) Conclusion We thought that might create a power struggle with coaches, but what happened Monday suggests it also may create a power struggle with athletic directors. Cal athletic director Jim Knowlton retired with four years left on his contract, and it’s clear that newly installed GM Ron Rivera — the former Panthers and Commanders head coach — has assumed the role Knowlton had when it comes to football. Meanwhile, well-traveled quarterback Jake Garcia committed to Michigan. The former four-star recruit has been at Miami, Missouri and East Carolina. Why are the Wolverines dipping into the portal for a QB now?

The conversation around the 2025 college football season has centered on a few players — mostly new starting quarterbacks — but there are plenty of potentially great players we’re not talking about. Today, they’re in the spotlight.(0:00-0:59) Intro(1:00-9:22) Players we're not talking about: Ryan Wingo, Cam Coleman(9:23-11:50) Story Time(11:51-17:23) Texas A&M QB Marcel Reed(17:24-24:36) How good can Oregon be this year?(24:37-31:38) Miami's Outlook, Rueben Bain Jr.(31:39-35:10) Jadan Baugh at Florida(35:11-36:18) Nic Anderson, LSU(36:19-39:42) Max Klare at Ohio State(39:43-40:55) Where does JP Pickles play?(40:56-44:03) Dylan Raiola at Nebraska(44:04-45:43) Who do we talk about the most?(45:44-46:11) Conclusion: Happy Memorial Day! Ari believes Auburn receiver Cam Coleman could be a breakout star. He also thinks Miami edge rusher Rueben Bain could be a force now that he’s fully healthy. Andy thinks Texas A&M quarterback Marcel Reed has been lost in the shuffle with all the talk about new starting QBs in the SEC. Reed will be the leader of Team Chaos, so he could play a very important role this season. Andy and Ari agree that Oregon safety Dillon Thieneman is a huge key to the Ducks’ portal reload.

To put it more bluntly, Ari called that attitude “soft.” Rhule and pretty much everyone else in Nebraska took offense, and it culminated in a conversation between Rhule and Ari that hopefully cleared the air. In other news, Ross Dellenger of Yahoo! reports that conference commissioners are expected to approve straight seeding for the 2025 playoff in a conference call Thursday. BYU quarterback Jake Retzlaff has been accused of sexual assault in a civil lawsuit. It’s also a Dear Andy/Dear Ari show, and you sent some great questions… Is Georgia coach Kirby Smart’s philosophy of ensuring the proven players on his team make more than unproven freshmen a sound one? Texas and Ohio State both lost a lot of drafted players. Is the confidence in Texas reloading based on confidence in Arch Manning?
