Episode Details

UCLA ramps up the pressure on Ohio State for four-star quarterback Brady Edmunds, sparking a fierce recruiting showdown. Will the Buckeyes’ proven quarterback development and strong ties keep Edmunds in Columbus, or can Bob Chesney’s Bruins lure him back to California with a faster path to the field and hometown appeal? Jay Stephens and Zach Anderson-Yoxsimer break down what’s driving Edmunds’ decision, the impact of recent coaching moves, and how the Bruins’ West Coast recruiting resurgence might disrupt the Buckeyes’ pipeline.

Looking ahead, the hosts spotlight key matchups for both programs in 2026, examining how Bob Chesney’s first-year schedule sets up UCLA for early success and which games could elevate Ohio State’s national standing. The conversation heats up as Dusty May leaves Michigan for the NBA, reshaping Big Ten basketball dynamics and giving UCLA and Ohio State a new shot at conference supremacy. Can Michigan’s rivals capitalize on this seismic coaching change?
