As the ACC Spring Meetings continue in Amelia Island, Andy breaks down everything that is happening and the discussions being held.

Andy is on the scene at the ACC meetings in Amelia Island, Fla., and the scene is… weird. (0:00-3:05) Intro - Live from ACC Spring Meetings! (3:06-9:41) Kickoff Times Announced (9:42-23:12) North Carolina, Board of Trustees Update (23:13-48:40) Florida State Update with Ira Schoffel (48:41-53:44) NFL vs CFP Games on TV (53:45-1:02:33) NCAA president speaks on House Settlement (1:02:34-1:03:09) Conclusion Two ACC schools (Florida State and Clemson) are suing the conference, and the conference is suing those schools back. And everyone is meeting ahead of a potentially exciting 2024 football season because no one can do anything about the court cases right now. Meanwhile, the board of trustees at North Carolina made a very public statement that the Tar Heels need to consider membership in another conference. Unlike at Clemson and Florida State, where the president and athletic director were very much on board with the anti-ACC sentiment, the trustees spent part of their meeting Monday criticizing athletic director Bubba Cunningham, who was headed to the meeting in Florida when they met. Cunningham, at least publicly, has been supportive of the ACC. Also, NCAA president Charlie Baker met with ACC ADs and coaches Monday to brief them on some of the big changes heading their way. The NCAA is negotiating a settlement in a class action lawsuit (House v. NCAA) that likely will change the business model for college sports. And Baker is talking like a person who wants that multi-billion dollar settlement done so the schools can start preparing for the future. Later, Andy and Ira Schoffel of On3’s Warchant discuss Florida State’s position in the ACC right now as the Seminoles sue the league in Florida and the league sues the Seminoles in North Carolina. Plus, Andy and Ira discuss what Florida State will look like on the football field this year after losing some very important players to the NFL. Want to watch the show instead?

Andy and Phillip Dukes are talking Auburn on a glorious spring Friday. Hugh Freeze said this week that he decided to roll with the QBs the Tigers had — including incumbent starter Payton Thorne and incoming freshman Walker White — rather than spending big on a QB in the transfer portal. Was that the correct choice, and how much will Freeze’s decision to call plays again change the course of the offense? Also, how good is freshman receiver Cam Coleman?

How did that happen, and what does it say about how serious new Hoosiers coach Curt Cignetti is about turning around that program? The guys also discuss which teams improved their rosters the most now that the spring transfer portal window has closed. Miami kept adding players, but will those additions help the Hurricanes win more come fall? Andy and Dukes also discuss former NBA guard Austin Rivers’ comment that there were about 30 NBA players who could play in the NFL. Which is the more difficult sport? Also, which NBA stars would we have loved to see in college football? Want to watch the show instead? Head on over to YouTube! https://youtube.com/live/ZLv0Jn1EwXo Learn more about your ad choices.

Have no fear, because today we’re going to delight and enrage you as Andy and On3 national scout Cody Bellaire pinpoint the ceiling and the floor for EVERY SEC team in 2024. (0:00-11:47) Intro - Brian Kelly on transfer market (11:48-12:14) SEC Preview (12:15-16:29) Cody Bellaire Intro - Doppelgängers (16:30-25:26) Alabama Crimson Tide Floor/Ceiling (25:27-35:00) Florida Gators Floor/Ceiling (35:01-41:18) LSU Tigers Floor/Ceiling (41:19-47:52) Auburn Tigers Floor/Ceiling (47:53-52:47) Ole Miss Rebels Floor/Ceiling (52:48-58:05) Oklahoma Sooners Floor/Ceiling (58:06-1:04:37) Texas Longhorns Floor/Ceiling (1:04:38-1:08:03) Georgia Bulldogs Floor/Ceiling (1:08:04-1:13:58) Tennessee Volunteers Floor/Ceiling (1:13:59-1:17:18) Missouri Tigers Floor/Ceiling (1:17:19-1:22:38) Kentucky Wildcats Floor/Ceiling (1:22:39-1:27:03) South Carolina Gamecocks Floor/Ceiling (1:27:04-1:31:00) Texas A&M Aggies Floor/Ceiling (1:31:01-1:33:54) Mississippi State Bulldogs Floor/Ceiling (1:33:55-1:36:12) Arkansas Razorbacks Floor/Ceiling (1:36:13-1:39:16) Vanderbilt Commodores Floor/Ceiling (1:39:17-1:40:52) Conclusion - Dear Andy tomorrow! andystapleson3@gmail.com But first we have to dive into Brian Kelly's comments on the transfer portal, particularly the defensive tackle position Alabama, Georgia, Texas and Ole Miss look like CFP contenders, but should others — looking at you LSU, Missouri and Tennessee — dream just as big? Just how dire are the situations at Arkansas and Florida? And which SEC quarterback does Cody think will shock the nation in 2024? The ULTIMATE SEC Preview for 2024 Want to watch the show instead?

The transfer portal is closed, and the last of the entrants are finding new teams. On3’s Pete Nakos joins to break down the action. (0:00-5:49) Intro (5:50-25:44) Pete Nakos Joins to Breakdown Transfer Portal (25:45-37:48) Future of College Football, Court News (37:49-41:19) LSU Intro (41:20-1:04:10) Billy Embody from the Bengal Tiger joins (1:04:11-1:06:10) Conclusion Amorion Walker is the latest Boomerang transfer. Walker played at Michigan last year, transferred to Ole Miss in January and now has decided to transfer back to Michigan. Meanwhile, Alabama DB transfer Peyton Woodyard committed to Oregon. San Jose State CB transfer Jay’Vion Cole, the top remaining DB in the portal, committed to Texas. The landing spot for Oklahoma QB transfer General Booty remains unknown. Andy and Pete also discuss Pete’s story on the possibility that athletes might collectively bargain with schools or conferences even if they aren’t employees. This is what the schools would prefer, but it may not be possible because of a variety of factors. Next, Billy Embody of On3's The Bengal Tiger joins to talk LSU. First, he and Andy put to rest any J.D. PicKell-created debate over the nickname for Tigers quarterback Garrett Nussmeier. Billy explains what LSU does now after missing on several key defensive line targets in the spring transfer portal window. He also offers some insight as to how LSU will replace the production of first-round receivers Malik Nabers and Brian Thomas Jr. Want to watch the show instead?

Andy and Dukes also tackle the closing of the transfer portal and discuss which teams got better.

The spring transfer portal window is closed, but there’s still drama. Oklahoma landed one of the most sought-after players in the spring window on Thursday when TCU transfer Damonic Williams committed. Williams started every game in his two seasons at TCU and was an honorable mention All-Big 12 player in 2023. Few defensive linemen with this resume had entered the portal this spring, and a lot of schools wanted Williams. It came down to Oklahoma and Texas. (0:00-9:09) Intro - Transfer Portal News (9:10-23:13) Pete Nakos Joins to Break down Transfer Portal (23:14-29:57) NCAA Antitrust Settlement Case, Future of CFB (29:58-32:56) Texas A&M Introduction (32:57-1:05:12) Billy Liucci from Tex Ags joins (1:05:13-1:06:47) Conclusion - Have a great weekend! On3’s Pete Nakos breaks down that decision as well as the ongoing recruitment of Michigan State transfer defensive lineman Simeon Barrow, who told Pete on Thursday that he might decide Friday from a group that includes LSU, Missouri and Miami. Plus, Oklahoma backup QB General Booty is the highest ranking player to ever enter the transfer portal. Next, Billy Liucci of TexAgs.com joins the show to talk about a quiet spring in College Station as new coach Mike Elko works to shape a roster that probably isn’t as loaded as we’d think given Texas A&M’s recruiting rankings of the past few years. In fact, the situation Elko finds himself in now is eerily reminiscent of the one Steve Sarkisian took over at Texas in 2021. But with QB Conner Weigman working his way back toward 100 percent, transfer Nic Scourton coming off the edge and an SEC schedule that isn’t as tough as the one some other teams got, the Aggies might be a surprise come fall.

It’s a Dear Andy edition, and you have some great questions. Specifically, you have some very interesting questions about Deion Sanders. (0:00-7:37) Intro - Opt Outs, State of CFB (7:38-21:59) Introducing On3 - Her with Talia Goodman (22:00-24:09) Dear Andy Intro (24:10-45:31) Deion Sanders and Colorado (45:32-59:46) Coaches Hired to Win Championships (59:47-1:03:34) Group of 5 to Power 4 Transfers Idea (1:03:35-1:06:41) 4 New Conferences to Pick New Teams (1:06:42-1:09:49) Nick Saban's Retirement (1:09:50-1:14:03) G5 School to use in EA Sports? (1:14:04-1:16:14) Conclusion But first, we’re very excited to introduce you to Talia Goodman. Talia is On3’s newest hire, and she’ll be leading the HER vertical. While a student reporter at Indiana University, Talia realized there wasn’t a transfer portal news-breaker covering women’s basketball, so she worked to make herself one. Now she’s the best in the game, and she’s bringing her talents to On3. Andy and Talia discuss how the women’s college game can capitalize on the moment it’s having currently, and Talia identifies the stars who will try to fill the void now that Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese and company are off to the WNBA. Now, it’s time for your questions. Once again, Coach Prime and his team dominate the conversation. Will Shedeur Sanders' tweet clapping back at a former Colorado player hurt his chances to win awards? Would it affect his draft stock? How much longer should we reasonably expect Deion to be at Colorado? Given the discussion of the way Sanders handled cutting players and the back-and-forth between former and current Colorado players, what should be considered acceptable when managing a roster? Andy often talks about college football jobs where the job description is simply “Win the national title.” How many of those jobs are there? Which schools? Who does Andy plan to play as in Dynasty Mode when the new EA college football game debuts? Want to watch the show instead?

Andystapleson3@gmail.com Andy and Cody each will declare their offensive and defensive schemes. Then they’ll draft the best possible teams to carry out those schemes on the field. Perhaps they’re looking for different quarterbacks, but everyone needs great offensive tackles, edge rushers, defensive backs and receivers. Who will get LSU offensive tackle Will Campbell? Who will get Ohio State’s Caleb Downs? Which general manager/coach will pick the best players for his chosen schemes? Feel free to heckle each pick in the chat. Want to watch the draft instead?

The hype train for Nebraska freshman quarterback Dylan Raiola is leaving the station, and Andy climbs aboard with Sean Callahan of On3’s Husker Online. Raiola’s spring game performance got the Nebraska fanbase pumped for the future. So what happens next? How does coach Matt Rhule handle the quarterback situation going into preseason camp? And who will help Raiola on offense when fall arrives? (0:00-4:29) Intro (4:30-13:49) Leaders Discussing Settlement of Antitrust Case (13:50-35:14) Sean Callahan from Husker Online Joins (35:15-40:28) Spring Transfer Portal (40:29-1:03:53) Tyler Horka from Blue and Gold joins (1:03:54-1:06:50) Conclusion - Draft Ultimate Teams tomorrow Before that, Andy breaks down the news that the NCAA and major conferences have engaged in settlement talks in the House v. NCAA case. Why does this matter? Because any settlement likely involves the schools promising revenue sharing with the athletes going forward. That would change how the players are compensated, and it likely would lead to collective bargaining. Speaking of which, there was news on that front Monday out of Trent Dilfer’s UAB program. Also, a few more players jumped in the transfer portal ahead of its closing on Tuesday. Alabama freshman safety Peyton Woodyard entered on Monday night. Oregon is the favorite to land him. Nebraska edge rusher Chief Borders also has entered the portal. So has former Washington QB Sam Huard, who spent 2023 at Cal Poly. Offensive lineman Andrew Dennis, the highest ranked signee in Illinois’ 2024 class, also entered the portal. Next, Tyler Horka of On3’s Blue and Gold joins to discuss Notre Dame coming out of spring practice. The Fighting Irish got a good look at their quarterback room with presumed starter Riley Leonard recovering from ankle surgery, and the depth — and lack of QBs jumping in the portal — should inspire confidence. So should the performance of the receivers in the spring game. Notre Dame didn’t have anywhere near its full group, but the way the available players performed suggests that the passing game should be much more dynamic than it was last season.

We’re talking about what Oregon should expect from the Big Ten and what the Big Ten should expect from the Ducks, but we also need to acknowledge that elsewhere in the Big Ten, the Dylan Raiola hype machine is operating at full capacity after Raiola’s spring game performance.

Oregon State RB transfer Damien Martinez has committed to Miami, and Colorado RB transfer Dylan Edwards has committed to Kansas State. Meanwhile, Colorado wrapped spring practice and continued to add more transfers. That includes RB Rashad Amos, a Miami (Ohio) transfer who originally had planned to go to Mississippi State. Next, Justin Hopkins of Scoop Duck joins to talk about Oregon. The Ducks wrapped spring practice Saturday, and Oklahoma transfer QB Dillon Gabriel looks like he’s been in Eugene forever. We also got a look at a few potential star freshmen on defense, and we got our first look at QB Dante Moore as a Duck. Plus, Andy breaks down the rest of the NFL draft....

Andy and Philip Dukes break down the first round of the NFL draft. Dukes is Atlanta born and bred, so he has many, many thoughts on the Falcons taking Michael Penix Jr. after just signing Kirk Cousins in free agency.

(1:02:49-1:06:14) ESPN TV Deals and the ACC (1:06:15-1:06:48) Conclusion - Happy Draft Day and Congrats to all that get Drafted tonight! But first, On3 national reporter Pete Nakos joins us for a transfer portal update. And the portal has been busy. On Wednesday, Georgia defensive lineman Christen Miller announced his intention to enter the portal. This is another player of consequence entering the portal. The question now is which non-SEC team will land Miller. Also, former Penn State receiver KeAndre Lambert-Smith committed to Auburn. Now it’s time for your questions, including a leadoff question that is sure to ignite debate… In honor of Reggie Bush getting his Heisman Trophy back, does Reggie have the greatest high school highlight video of all time? Andy will rank the top 10. Also in honor of Bush getting his Heisman back, what other sports wrongs need to be righted? It’s draft night, and a viewer wants to know how Andy would build a team if he were an NFL general manager. Another viewer wants Andy to match perfect players with perfect teams/situations in the draft. Also, how will weather affect first-round College Football Playoff games?

But first, there’s a lot of transfer portal news. 0:00 Intro - Reggie Bush Gets his Heisman Back! 12:56 Intro 14:24 Transfer Portal Update - Colorado 22:08 Other Portal News 27:02 Jesse Simonton joins to talk the NFL Draft 51:57 Jesse Simonton breaks down his top head coaches in college football 1:14:42 Conclusion, Dear Andy Tomorrow - Andystapleson3@gmail.com The most interesting name is Dylan Edwards, the Colorado tailback who led the Buffaloes in rushing last season. Edwards was one of Deion Sanders’ first big flips, choosing Colorado over Notre Dame out of high school. But now Edwards plans to hit the portal. Where will he go? We’re not quite sure, but Kansas State quarterback Avery Johnson posted a photo of he and Edwards playing together in pee-wee football. Next, Andy and On3 national writer Jesse Simonton have things to argue about. Andy released his mock draft, while Jesse released his All-College Football team of potential NFL draftees. Jesse also revealed his top 25 college football coaches this week. That topic certainly won’t create any debate in the chat. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Yes, Caleb Williams was always that good. But he wasn’t the top-ranked quarterback in the recruiting class of 2021. (That guy is still in college.) Meanwhile, J.J. McCarthy was as polarizing a college recruit as he is a potential NFL draft pick. (0:00-3:50) Introduction - NFL Draft (3:51-7:52) Charles Power and Cody Bellaire Join, Covid's Impact (7:53-13:29) Caleb Williams, USC (13:30-17:35) Drake Maye, UNC (17:36-19:28) Quinn Ewers Discussion (19:29-24:36) JJ McCarthy, Michigan (24:37-26:49) Jayden Daniels, LSU (26:50-29:25) Overall QB's (29:26-31:31) Jayden Daniels and Innovation in Technology (31:32-34:51) Favorite Prospect - Brock Bowers, Georgia (34:52-36:05) Jonathon Brooks, Texas (36:06-40:36) Can't Miss Recruits: Byron Murphy, Texas (40:37-43:35) Offensive Line Class: Joe Alt, Notre Dame (43:36-46:23) Tyler Guyton, Oklahoma (46:24-49:06) Gary Patterson at TCU (49:07-53:22) Guys Not in the Draft (53:23-56:59) Significance of Age (57:00-1:01:00) Guys Not in the Draft, Re-Visited (1:01:01-1:02:05) Conclusion On3 director of ranking Charles Power and national scout Cody Bellaire join Andy to share stories about the players who will be drafted beginning this Thursday when they were high schoolers trying to choose where they would play their college ball. Cody, who used to work in the personnel department at LSU, offers a plausible alternate history where Williams winds up in Baton Rouge playing for Ed Orgeron. Charles discusses how low-key Jayden Daniels' recruitment to Arizona State was. Charles also explains how the Joe Alt who came out of high school in Minnesota was not nearly as easy to project as the version of Alt who is leaving Notre Dame and heading to anchor some NFL team’s offensive line for the next 10 years. Plus, the guys pay tribute to the Patron Saint of Projection — former TCU coach Gary Patterson. Want to watch the show instead? Head on over to YouTube and join us LIVE, M-F, at 8 am et!

(0:00-9:07) Intro - Texas Spring Game (9:08-13:15) Michigan Spring Game (13:16-17:09) USC Spring Game (17:10-18:45) Transfer Portal Update - Cormani McClain (18:46-38:31) Pete Nakos Joins to recap the overall transfer portal (38:32-59:39) Trevor Sikkema Joins to preview the NFL Draft (59:40-1:02:13) Conclusion Another set of spring games is over, and it’s time to TOTALLY OVERREACT ABOUT ARCH MANNING. Sure, Texas coach Steve Sarkisian made it abundantly clear that Quinn Ewers is the Texas starter and that he just really wanted to give Manning a chance to play significant snaps in the spring game. But that’s not how the Internet works, Sark. Meanwhile, Michigan wrapped spring practice, and it appears the Wolverines’ QB competition will come down to Alex Orji and Davis Warren — unless Michigan coaches decide to dip into the transfer portal for a QB. So far, no QB that would appear worthy of Michigan’s starting job has entered the portal. That brings us to a transfer portal update from On3 national writer Pete Nakos. The weekend brought a lot of official visits, a few commitments and a few new entries. Next, Trevor Sikkema of Pro Football Focus joins to break down Thursday’s NFL Draft. Trevor is a massive college football fan who also happens to be a draft analyst, and he’ll help explain some of the more interesting swings in draft conventional wisdom. For instance, former Michigan QB J.J. McCarthy is now being mocked as a likely top-10 pick. How did he climb draft boards so fast? Want to watch the show instead?
