The guys also go over other NSD moves, including Austin Mack to Washington, Rodrick Pleasant's pact with Oregon, and more.

More importantly, what does it mean we'll get to watch when four new teams join a league that -- at least this year -- will still have Oklahoma and Texas?

The Athletic's Miami beat writer Manny Navarro joins Ari and Andy to discuss the state of the Hurricanes as the second National Signing Day approaches. Miami needs an offensive coordinator following the firing of Josh Gattis. What does this mean for Mario Cristobal's build when a coordinator can go from Broyles Award winner (at Michigan in 2021) to fired in a year? What have the Hurricanes done to improve what wound up being a lackluster product on the field in 2022. Also, does Florida State have a better NIL-era plan than Miami or Florida?Plus, Manny talks about a story he wrote this month looking at how the recruiting sausage is made. Hosted on Acast.

Andy and Ari discuss championship Sunday -- from a college football perspective, of course. Jalen Hurts is a Super Bowl QB. That's not a sentence that seemed feasible when he was transferring from Alabama to Oklahoma. Meanwhile, Patrick Mahomes continues to show that an Air Raid QB can be an all-time great QB. The second national signing day is Wednesday, and Ari is ready for drama. Meanwhile, Miami needs an offensive coordinator.--------------------------------Try Peloton risk free with a 30-Day Home Trial, New Members only at onepeloton.com/home-trialUpgrade your closet with Rhone and use BWF to save 20% at https://www.rhone.com/andy23 Hosted on Acast.

As the 49ers and QB Brock Purdy prepare to face the Eagles in Sunday's NFC Championship, Andy, Ari and Max look back on Purdy's pre-draft appearance on the show last year. What did NFL teams miss about the former Iowa State QB that allowed him to fall to the final pick of the draft?Can we then use those clues to try to predict which outgoing college QB might be a later-round gem in this year's draft?Later, we have our first Random Ranking of the year. Earlier this week, Ari lamented that original (non-comic book, non-sequel) movies rarely get made anymore. He mentioned Primal Fear from 1996 as an example of movies that just don't get made now. So Andy decided the guys needed to rank their top five movies of 1996. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
