The 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! 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(0:00-0:45) Intro: PORTAL COMBAT(0:46-11:15) Nico enters with a Do Not Contact tag(11:16-13:31) Chasing the bag?(13:32-18:54) What will Nico's deal be worth?(18:55-19:49) Culver's(19:50-30:00) Would Tennessee take Nico back?(30:01-33:31) QBs in the portal, Tennessee discussion(33:32-36:36) Oklahoma's newest additions(36:37-40:16) Decoldest Crawford in the portal(40:17-46:47) Other jobs, portal wrap up(46:48-56:06) Colorado retiring #2 and #12(56:07-1:02:53) Conclusion: 3 jobs The transfer portal is OPEN FOR BUSINESS. 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?

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. Watch us LIVE on YouTube, M-F, at 9:30 am et! https://youtube.com/live/j57ak3vhgP8 Hosts: Andy Staples, Ari WassermanProducer: River Bailey Want to partner with the show?

Where does QB Nico Iamaleava go now that he's left Tennessee?

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!

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. Watch us LIVE, M-F, on YouTube at 9:30 am et! https://youtube.com/live/YPKXQapff0Q Hosts: Andy Staples, Ari WassermanProducer: River Bailey Want to partner with the show?
