CFB Apostles: Top 10 After Spring, Building Roster Through Portal May 10, 2024

Welcome to The Unafraid Show's College Football Apostles with George Wrighster and Ralph Amsden! On today's episode, the guys get into whether or not it's possible to build a championship team through NIL and the transfer portal and discuss whether Deion Sanders is cooking up the correct recipe.

They also discuss comments by LSU's Brian Kelly, Auburn's Hugh Freeze, and Boise State's Spencer Danielsen about their reluctance to use NIL to buy players. Is this evidence that the NIL pendulum is swinging back to sensibility, or is this just spin from coaches that struck out on buying the players they wanted?

The guys also go through their top 10 teams coming out of spring football and heading into the 2024 season. Find out which Big 12 team gets some love, and why the guys think half the top 10 is in the SEC.

On this Episode of the Pac-12 Apostles, George Wrighster and Ralph Amsden are back! George took his son on unofficial visits to University of Arizona, University of Utah, and UCLA - he details his up-close impressions of each football program. An investigation into the decision by Washington to fire Jimmy Lake didn't turn up anything scandalous, which backs up George's reporting last year that they just decided to move on based on how they felt the program was regressing. Pac-12 Commissioner George Kliavkoff finally acted to get the conference out of their insanely expensive San Francisco lease, so why isn't Ralph happy? Oregon bolstered their 2022 class by adding 5-star OL Josh Conerly, and convincing highly touted WR Kyler Kasper to commit and reclassify- the guys analyze those additions and talk about Oregon's recruiting. Lincoln Riley weighs in on what he'd like to see done to curb the influence of NIL collectives- George sees it as whining, while Ralph disagrees. Last up, in QB news, JT Daniels spurns Oregon State and lands at West Virginia, while Arizona State openly suggests they're still looking for next year's QB. #fsrweekends

Pac-12 coaches have been on the forefront of college football's talks about race. They are speaking out with and for the players. Not all the news has been good news in the Pac-12. Utah's Defensive Coordinator Morgan Scalley was outted by former players for his use of the N-word. Should he be fired, and will he be fired?

Week 3 Predictions and Preview, Player IV Fluids for Hydration, UCLA Free Tickets Sep 12, 2019

George Wrighster and Ralph Amsden break down and dissect all the games from Week 3 of the Pac-12 football season. All twelve Pac-12 teams are in action this weekend. The Apostles believe this could be the most important weekend of the Pac-12 season because all the games are non-conference matchups. The results of these games against Michigan State, Houston, Texas Tech, BYU, and Oklahoma will ultimately be used to judge the strength of the Pac-12 come bowl time.

Player hydration has been a major topic this season. Coaches are talking about giving their players IV fluids before the games. Ralph has concerns about it but George sheds some light on how common they really are.

UCLA has a significant attendance problem. Only about 35,000 people showed up to the 100,00+ seat Rose Bowl to see the Bruins play San Diego State. They have even resorted to giving away 4 tickets to this week's game against #5 Oklahoma. This is similar to a couple of seasons ago when Michigan gave away free tickets to fans who brought a Coke can.

Week 2 Preview/Predictions, Mike Leach twitter, LeGarrette Blount punch 10yr Anniversary Sep 05, 2019

George and Ralph make their week 2 predictions and preview all the Pac-12 matchups for college football week 2. They also discuss injuries to KJ Costello and JT Daniels. What will be the impact on their teams and conference as a whole?

Can Oregon State have a better showing against Hawaii than Arizona did? Should Arizona feel threatened by this week's FCS opponent and their fifth year quarterback? Is Northern Illinois' style of play enough to give Utah a contest? Can Washington's Jacob Eason handle Cal's secondary? Will USC's Kedon Slovis be able to handle Stanford's defense in his first college start? We discuss all that and more in week 2 preview episode of The Pac-12 Apostles Podcast.

Mike Leach clearly has too much time on his hands. His twitter feed looks nothing like any other college football head coach.

The Apostles recollect the punch that defined a career on the 10th anniversary of Oregon's postgame brawl with Boise State. LeGarrette Blount knocked Byron Hout out after Boise State beat Oregon. It was a game changer for everybody involved. Did Hout deserve it? Send your thoughts and comments to immad@unafraidshow.com.

Oregon did lose the most important game to the conference to Auburn, but gained a lot of respect in the process. The conference is not out of the College Football Playoff conversation. But will likely need to be undefeated the rest of the way.

There were a few key injuries in week 1 the Apostles discuss. USC lost starting quarterbacks JT Daniels with a torn ACL/MCL. Washington Huskies center Nick Harris left the game early on but does not appear to seriously injured.

Preseason AP Poll, USC Disrespect, Offensive Breakout Players, Most Important Players in 2019, Coaching Hot Seats Aug 21, 2019

The preseason AP Poll came out and it featured five Pac-12 teams but there was still massive disrespect for the conference in the mainstream sports media. USC only got 1 vote while Appalachian State, and Army got more votes. Fans don't realize how big of an affect the preseason polls have on the College Football Playoff rankings. There were countless cases in 2018. Eleven of the top 25 teams in the 2018-19 Preseason AP Poll didn’t even finish ranked. In 2017, nine didn’t finish ranked. In 2016, 13 didn’t finish ranked. Commonly, those early season matchups that were so hyped up turned out to be nothing burgers, but they did affect the CFB Playoff committee rankings.

Jeremy McCarthy wrote an article on Unafraid Show about the 12 breakout Pac-12 Players and the Apostles discuss where he got it right and where he went wrong.

THE 12: There are many players that are crucial to their team and entire Pac-12's success. We rank them from 1-12. There are defensive lineman, offensive lineman, running backs, a wide receiver, quarterbacks on the list.

CASTING STONES: When will media members stop asking about what coaches are on the hot seat and how many wins it will take for a coach to keep his job. USC's Athletic Director Lynn Swann was asked that about Clay Helton recently and of course he gave a nothing answer.

Ep #3 Colson Yankoff vs Washington, Pac-12 Stadiums Ranked, Recruits Leaving Pac-12 Country Aug 11, 2019

In Episode 3, the Pac-12 Apostles deal with George Wrighster's tweet about Colson Yankoff that sent Washington Huskies fans into a tailspin. Yankoff is a former QB for Washington who transfered to UCLA. Huskies coach Chris Petersen refused to grant a waiver allowing Yankoff to appeal to the NCAA for immediate eligibility at UCLA. Both Ralph and George hate the hypocrisy in the NCAA system. The NCAA claims the players are student athletes who need to be protected, but regularly treats them like employees. It is ridiculous that coaches can move as they please from school to school, but the players have restrictions. (0:00 - 11:59)

Recruiting matters in college football. The teams with the most talent have the best chance to win the CFB Playoff and National Championship. There are 64 recruits in the 2020 class with either 4-5 stars who live in Pac-12 states or neighboring states. With the exception of the Oregon Ducks and Washington Huskies, the conference is falling behind in the recruiting rankings for the class of 2020. The early signing period is not until December, but the USC Trojans are ranked between 60th and 68th depending on which recruiting site you like. (12:00- 23:41)

George and Ralph rank the Pac-12 stadiums from #12 to #1. (23:42-End)

Episode #2: State of the Pac-12 Conference, North and South Division Prediction Preview Aug 07, 2019

George Wrighster and Ralph Amsden return for the second installment of UnafraidShow.com's Pac-12 Apostles Podcast. In this episode, the guys discuss the critical nature of the 2019 season for the Pac-12 conference, as well as the responsibility of the fans to help keep the conference from becoming irrelevant before the tv deal is up in 2024. The conference is falling financially behind the other power 5 conferences. So, winning a national championship or two before 2024 is paramount to the future of the Pac-12.

One of the biggest potential changes for the upcoming season in the Pac-12 is the proposed 9 am kickoff times for a small selection of games meant to air on Fox. George and Ralph discuss the pros and cons of early kickoffs and debate whether or not there will ultimately benefit from the change (14:00-31:38).

Pac-12 Apostles Podcast North and South Predictions

George and Ralph revealed their preseason predictions for where the Pac-12 North teams will finish. Oregon, Washington, and Stanford have been the class of the Pac-12 for the last decade. But, both of the apostles believe Cal is a well-coached team on the rise. (31:39-1:01:11).,

The media picked Utah to win the conference at Pac-12 Media Day. However, neither George or Ralph picked them to win the south division. The apostles' predictions for the Pac-12 South teams caused a big disagreement. They could not be further apart on the predictions for the UCLA Bruins, USC Trojans, and Arizona QB Khalil Tate. (1:01:12-End).
