March 19, 2025 Jared Curtis: Ducks Or Dawgs? | Syracuse & UNC RAISE Expectations
Quarterback Jared Curtis visited Oregon and Georgia, and now his college decision looms. Where he goes impacts the Ducks and Dawgs, as well as impacts several more prep quarterbacks and college football programs. Where does Ryder Lyons sign? Landon Duckworth? John Garcia, Jr. of Rivals and I discuss the wild quarterback recruiting landscape.
There is also a massive shift with Syracuse making major moves in Florida and across the recruiting landscape. How did Fran Brown and his staff get it done and do so quickly? Finally, Bill Belechick is starting to land some of the big bodies he needs to win for the North Carolina Tar Heels.

March 18, 2025 ACC Transfer Portal Quarterbacks: Carson Beck Booms or BUSTS | Pass Rushers
Carson Beck transfers from the Georgia Bulldogs to the Miami Hurricanes, but will he showcase the maturity needed for the Canes to take the next step as a college football program?
Thomas Castellanos has improved as a passer, but can he help the Florida State Seminoles at least reach a bowl game? Do not sleep on Transfer Portal quarterback Darian Mensah either. The Duke Blue Devils quarterback is one of the smartest young players in college football. We also discuss three ACC pass rushers here on The Portal Podcast!

March 17, 2025 RECRUITING UPDATES: Battle In The Trenches 5v5 Tournament
Recruiting news from the five-on-five big man tournament – Battle in the Trenches – which took place in South Florida, with elite talent converging from across the United States. Chancellor Barclay (Clemson), Darius Gray, Simote Katoanga (Southern California), Vliami Moala (Oregon), Manoah Fapausa, Tomuhini Topui, Jr. (Oregon), Canon Pickett, Breck Kolojay, and many more were in attendance.
I also define how five-on-five works, how it impacts college football recruiting, and why it’s so important to college football programs moving forward. Shout out to Torrian Wilson – @craftinglinemen – for hosting the event, and Ray McNeil – @BigPlayRay50 – from California Power, among many fine people putting the event together. They all helped me get down to South Florida to evaluate big-time talent.

March 16, 2025 Penn State LOSES Priority Recruits, Must WIN In-State Battles

Along with Locked On Nittany Lions host Zach Seyko, our discussion includes top in-state recruits, wide receiver targets, prospects committed to Penn State, and a major concern for James Franklin.
The biggest concern could be keeping an elite recruit in the fold and not flipping his college choice to another national college football power.
