Ep 526Miami LOADS UP in the spring transfer portal — should that excite or concern?
Miami has been very active in the spring transfer portal, grabbing multiple players who likely will wind up either starting or playing major roles for the Hurricanes this season. The latest is former Auburn DB Keionte Scott, who spent the spring at Houston but reunites with former Auburn and Houston secondary coach Zac Etheridge in Miami. The Hurricanes also have added former Texas kicker Bert Auburn, former North Dakota State tailback CharMar Brown, former N.C. State linebacker Kamal Bonner, former Cincinnati receiver Tony Johnson and former BYU receiver/kick returner Keelon Marion. Can the Hurricanes get to the College Football Playoff with this roster? Also, ESPN’s Heather Dinich said Tuesday that the seeding still might change for the 2025 College Football Playoff. Everyone agrees the seeding should change, but for everyone outside the Big Ten and SEC there is little incentive to make that change for this year. Later, Andy and Ari pick their favorite On3 graphics…(0:00-1:04) Intro(1:05-5:00) Miami's Spring Portal Haul(5:01-15:36) How the Canes have assembled their roster(15:37-24:14) Should Miami fans be concerned on how the roster was built?(24:15-30:49) Closing out Miami, Perfect 24 Hours preview(30:50-40:51) Changes coming to CFP Seeding?(40:52-54:18) Best of On3's Social graphics(54:19-55:28) Watch our show live on YouTube!(55:29-1:08:00) Conclusion: Your Perfect 24 Hours(1:08:01-1:08:45) Dear Andy & Ari tomorrow!

Could that AD be North Carolina’s Bubba Cunningham, who didn’t lead the charge to hire Bill Belichick and who probably isn’t keen on dealing with the Belichick situation now? Andy and Ari discuss some of the wild details of why Alan Haller’s tenure fell apart in East Lansing. Later, Nick Roush of Kentucky Sports Radio joins to talk Kentucky Derby. Nick offers tips on who to bet in the Derby and in the undercard races on Saturday. Nick also breaks down Kentucky football in 2025. Will the Wildcats get back to the style of play that made them consistent winners under Mark Stoops? Also, Nick is waiting for the apologies from Tennessee fans who got mad when he called Nico Iamaleava an “$8 million volleyball player” last fall. Want to watch the show instead?

Ep 522Is Bill Belichick at North Carolina going to work, or is it going to BLOW UP?
We hosted Andy & Ari On3 LIVE from the Draft in Green Bay last week, and it was a blast. Thanks to Culver’s for bringing us to the Great Wisconsin Tailgate. Born in Wisconsin, Culver’s is the home of the legendary ButterBurger, Fresh Frozen Custard and Wisconsin Cheese Curds—there’s no better representation of America’s Dairyland than that.

Ep 521The Arch Manning Paradox
We hosted Andy & Ari On3 LIVE from the Draft in Green Bay last week, and it was a blast. Thanks to Culver’s for bringing us to the Great Wisconsin Tailgate. Born in Wisconsin, Culver’s is the home of the legendary ButterBurger, Fresh Frozen Custard and Wisconsin Cheese Curds—there’s no better representation of America’s Dairyland than that. But Culver’s isn’t just in Wisconsin. There’s one near you now. So grab a ButterBurger and a Cement Mixer and let’s talk some football.(0:00-12:51) Andy's #1 Team: Texas(12:52-13:13) Subscribe to On3!(13:14-22:59) Diving Deep into the Arch Manning Paradox(23:00-25:17) How Good can Texas be?(25:18-35:18) Wrapping up the Arch Manning conversation(35:19-36:18) Culver's(36:19-45:15) SEC Scheduling may Depend on CFP Auto Bids(45:16-55:32) Jordon Hudson makes it weirder(55:33-57:31) New Sound Effects(57:32-1:01:27) Wrapping up the Bill Belichick Girlfriend conversation(1:01:28-1:02:45) Conclusion: Dear Andy & Ari Tomorrow! [email protected] We’re still discussing Andy’s post-spring top 25, and it’s time to have an extended discussion about the team at No. 1. Texas is transitioning to Arch Manning as its starting quarterback, and the expectations are sky-high. But the discussion around where Quinn Ewers went in the draft has become a broader discussion about Texas and Manning, and Ari is fired up about the Manning bashing that has seeped into the conversation. Andy, meanwhile, is fascinated by the Arch Manning Paradox. Andy wrote about the SEC and the continuing debate over whether to add a ninth conference game. Now it seems the decision hinges on what the new College Football Playoff format looks like. North Carolina coach Bill Belichick’s girlfriend Jordon Hudson continues to make news following a weird appearance on CBS Sunday Morning. Who knew the greatest coach in NFL history coming to college football was going to provide so much fodder for TMZ?

Ep 519Shedeur Sanders gets PRANKED by a dummy and gets PICKED by the Browns
We hosted Andy & Ari On3 LIVE from the Draft in Green Bay last week, and it was a blast. Thanks to Culver’s for bringing us to the Great Wisconsin Tailgate. Born in Wisconsin, Culver’s is the home of the legendary ButterBurger, Fresh Frozen Custard and Wisconsin Cheese Curds—there’s no better representation of America’s Dairyland than that. But Culver’s isn’t just in Wisconsin. There’s one near you now. So grab a ButterBurger and a Cement Mixer and let’s talk some football. Thank you to Gametime for sponsoring today's episode!

He finally got picked Saturday by Cleveland in the fifth round, but the weirdest story in the draft took a bizarre turn Sunday when one of the people who prank-called Sanders on Friday night was revealed to be the son of the Falcons’ defensive coordinator. The draft story that will become a more interesting college football story in December and January is what happened to Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers. He was taken in the seventh round by the Miami Dolphins, meaning he probably would have made far more in NIL money by transferring and playing another season of college football.Trebor Pena has decided he will be going to Penn State from Syracuse. Is this James Franklin's missing piece for the Nittany Lions?

We know who is going first (Miami QB Cam Ward) and we’re pretty sure who is going second (Colorado WR/CB Travis Hunter), but what happens after that is anyone’s guess. How many QBs will go in the first round? The sports books have set the total at 2.5. Does that mean Ward, Shedeur Sanders and someone else? Could Louisville’s Tyler Shough sneak in? Plus, Andy has some advice for the teams considering receivers: Don’t overthink it. Arizona’s Tetairoa McMillan was the only weapon on a bad team and still put up huge numbers. We also have quite a bit of college football news to discuss. The collective at Arkansas wants to collect a reported $200,000 from Madden Iamaleava after the freshman quarterback left last week to join his older brother Nico at UCLA. Meanwhile, the federal judge overseeing the House v. NCAA case issued an order Wednesday saying she’d blow up the proposed settlement if the NCAA doesn’t phase in roster caps to keep athletes from getting cut from their teams because of the settlement.

Joey Aguilar left UCLA on Monday and committed to Tennessee by Monday evening. He’ll compete to replace Iamaleava, who left Tennessee for UCLA and took the job Aguilar had hoped to have. Meanwhile, Nico Iamaleava’s younger brother Madden left Arkansas and will transfer to UCLA, the school he flipped away from on National Signing Day. Elsewhere in the transfer portal, former Syracuse receiver Trebor Pena is considering Penn State. This would be a huge pickup for the Nittany Lions, but they’ll have to fight off Miami to get him.

Aguilar, who had come to UCLA this offseason after two years as Appalachian State’s starter, suddenly found himself without a job. On Monday evening, Aguilar committed to Tennessee. The 30 for 30 just writes itself.

Ep 512Is the future NOW for QB Bryce Underwood at Michigan
We’re excited to announce we’ll be hosting Andy & Ari On3 LIVE from the Draft in Green Bay on Thursday, April 24 and Friday, April 25! We’ll be set up right outside the famous Frozen Tundra of Lambeau Field at the Culver’s Great Wisconsin Tailgate. Born in Wisconsin, Culver’s is the home of the legendary ButterBurger, Fresh Frozen Custard and Wisconsin Cheese Curds—there’s no better representation of America’s Dairyland than that. We’ll have some very special guests throughout the Draft that you won’t want to miss, so stay tuned for more details and get ready for a weekend of fun, made fresh with our friends at Culver’s: https://go.culvers.com/culvers/sAkHC Thank you to Gametime for sponsoring today's episode!

Is he ready? Do we know anything based on what we’ve seen? Colorado offensive tackle Jordan Seaton voiced his frustration last week with the transfer portal after the Buffaloes lost their starting center. Ari thinks someone playing for Colorado doesn’t need to complain about the portal. Andy thinks Seaton has every right. Plus, Nico Iamaleava officially transfers to UCLA.

Ep 510When will Nico and UCLA become OFFICIAL? Revisiting QB Rankings
We’re excited to announce we’ll be hosting Andy & Ari On3 LIVE from the Draft in Green Bay on Thursday, April 24 and Friday, April 25! We’ll be set up right outside the famous Frozen Tundra of Lambeau Field at the Culver’s Great Wisconsin Tailgate.

While all signs point towards UCLA for the former Tennessee quarterback, there has yet to be anything official announced. Meanwhile, the quarterback room for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish got a little smaller on Thursday, as veteran Steve Angeli enters the portal. Is this a potential option for Tennessee in 2025, or will Angeli look to go to the group of 5? It's also a Dear Andy & Ari show, and we have some excellent questions from our listeners. First off we take a look at the 2023 QB class which contains Arch Manning, Nico Iamaleava, Sam Leavitt, and Lanorris Sellers. Were the qb rankings of these guys accurate so far? What about the class of 2021 and 2022? More questions revolve around Nico, but one from an Oklahoma fan comes in on Jim Nagy: Is he worth the hype? Later, the guys do a deep dive into North Carolina's situation on the field while discussing the news regarding Bill Belichick and his girlfriend. To wrap up, we receive a gift from Producer River's high school coach: his hudl tape. We close out the show by breaking down some of River's best plays, and others that are definitely illegal these days. Producer River's full tape here: http://www.hudl.com/video/3/7486480/587131853deaab0d7c54a964 Watch the show LIVE, M-F at 9:30 am et on the On3 YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@On3sports Hosts: Andy Staples, Ari WassermanProducer: River Bailey Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

We’re excited to announce we’ll be hosting Andy & Ari On3 LIVE from the Draft in Green Bay on Thursday, April 24 and Friday, April 25!

The spring transfer portal has been open a day, and quarterback Nico Iamaleava remains the biggest conversation. He’s reportedly in talks with UCLA, but it doesn’t seem like the deal is done yet. Meanwhile, UCLA QB — and former Appalachian State QB — Joey Aguilar is waiting to find out what happens with Nico. Pete Nakos of On3 joins Andy and Ari to break down that story as well as several other intriguing players hitting the portal. North Carolina lost edge rusher Beau Atkinson, who was the Tar Heels’ most productive returning player. Wisconsin lost tight end Tanner Koziol, who had transferred earlier this offseason from Ball State. Boise State lost linebacker Andrew Simpson Syracuse lost leading returning receiver Trebor Pena. Syracuse coach Fran Brown broke down what happened with Pena on the Cuse Sports Talk show, leading to a hilarious rant about NIL deals. Want to watch the show? Join us LIVE, M-F at 9:30 am et!

Ep 508The transfer portal is OPEN FOR BUSINESS and Nico is IN
We’re excited to announce we’ll be hosting Andy & Ari On3 LIVE from the Draft in Green Bay on Thursday, April 24 and Friday, April 25!

Will we see any starting QBs jump in as a Nico Iamaleava domino effect, or will this portal cycle be relatively calm? Oklahoma has been busy, signing Cal transfer RB Jaydn Ott and Stanford grad transfer offensive lineman Jake Maikkula on Tuesday. Later, Andy and Ari debate their boss’s suggestion that Tennessee take Nico back (with many conditions, of course). Plus, Notre Dame coach Marcus Freeman visited the Hard Count. Andy and Ari discuss what he said about his quarterback competition. Want to watch the show instead?

The biggest name, of course, is former Tennessee quarterback Nico Iamaleava. It’s still unclear where he will land, but it’s becoming increasingly likely that he won’t be making a parallel move. On Monday night, Cal tailback Jaydn Ott entered the portal. Meanwhile, a trio of Division II offensive linemen from the same team are picking up interest. On3’s Pete Nakos joins Andy and Ari to break it all down.

Now that quarterback Nico Iamaleava has left Tennessee, where might the former five-star recruit land? Some big-name schools got tossed around last week, but are any of them realistic? Is it possible Team Nico is still demanding too much money? The flip side of that is Tennessee’s next move. Volunteers coach Josh Heupel said during the spring game he was excited to see the two scholarship QBs on Tennessee’s roster. But will the Vols reach into the portal to take another? Meanwhile, there were spring games Saturday at major programs across the country. Ohio State, Notre Dame, Georgia, Alabama and Florida all wrapped spring practice. Perhaps the biggest news came from Gainesville, where Florida coach Billy Napier said QB D.J. Lagway will be throwing again in a few weeks.

Ep 493How Bruce Pearl's success coach SINKS Jeremy Pruitt's $100 million lawsuit
Bring home the W with the ultimate tailgate package. The Burger Box from Whataburger is perfect for every occasion.

(1:07:23-1:08:12) ConclusionOn Thursday, former Tennessee coach Jeremy Pruitt sued the NCAA for $100 million. One particular coach working Friday in the NCAA Tournament is probably the NCAA's best defense in the lawsuit. Auburn coach Bruce Pearl faced a similar situation and re-emerged and got a new job even before his NCAA penalties expired. One coach was good at Tennessee and one coach wasn't. That's the difference. Half the Elite Eight is set, and we’ve got four incredible games on Friday. On Thursday, Duke survived a scare from Arizona with an all-timer from freshman Cooper Flagg. The Blue Devils move on to face Alabama, which set an NCAA Tournament record for three-pointers made. Florida wore out Maryland, and the top-seeded Gators will face Texas Tech, which stormed back from a huge deficit to force overtime and then beat Arkansas in the extra period. Friday, we’ve got Kentucky-Tennessee, Ole Miss-Michigan State, Michigan-Auburn and Purdue-Houston. We’re also on Kevin Willard watch. Will he take the Villanova job or stay at Maryland? Meanwhile, college football news keeps coming. Kent State coach Kenni Burns was placed on administrative leave. Next, Andy and Ari answer your questions, including… How good is the Stanford job? Is it possible the College Football Playoff quarterfinals could move to campus?

The chalk of the early rounds created some huge matchups. Can Arizona’s Caleb Love shock Duke the way he did as a North Carolina player in the Final Four in 2022, or are the Blue Devils just going to roll into the Elite Eight? Is Michigan-Auburn the sneaky most exciting game of the round? Kentucky has beaten Tennessee twice as an underdog. Can the Wildcats do it a third time, or will the Volunteers get a chance to keep chasing that elusive first Final Four appearance? Plus, Stanford general manager Andrew Luck fired football coach Troy Taylor on Tuesday. Also, Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy thinks Bedlam should be revived as a spring game.

Maryland’s Derik Queen called bank and called game to beat Colorado State and move on to the Sweet 16. But that wasn’t the only buzzer-beater Sunday that mattered. UConn nailed a shot as the buzzer sounded that didn’t help the Huskies at all, but it crushed Ari. The Terrapins advancing also makes the situation involving coach Kevin Willard more interesting. Villanova wants a coach, and Willard might be a candidate. Maryland wants to keep Willard, and the price keeps going up as he keeps winning. This leads to a discussion of football coaches who exercised similar leverage when they did their deals. Now these coaches are under pressure.

The first day of the NCAA Tournament was light on upsets but high on intrigue. McNeese coach Will Wade led one of the upsets — against his alma mater Clemson — and then wasn’t shy about taking questions about his pursuit of the N.C. State job. Wade’s players didn’t seem to mind, either. Is this how coaches should handle job questions in the new era?
