Podcast appearances and mentions of bob chesney

Jack Fitzpatrick and Bennett Conlin are back with one of their most fun offseason formats: a live draft of the Top 3 JMU Football underclassmen and Top 3 upperclassmen to watch heading into the 2026 season. Phil Steele's preseason magazine just dropped, and it has JC Evans listed as the starting quarterback over Camden Coleman, a result that has Bennett spinning. The guys break down what Napier told Steele, what it means for the QB competition, why Camden's track record still makes him the logical starter, and where Davi Belfort and Arrington Maiden fit into the picture. On the underclassmen side, picks include JC Evans at QB1, a rising safety in Seth Gathers and Deacon Rawls. On the upperclassmen side, Tyler Brown's wild career arc (Napier → Deion Sanders → back to Napier) makes him a surefire starter, Kells Bush looks like a Phil Steele preseason All-Sunbelt pick at defensive tackle, Gannon Wethersby is primed for 100+ tackles, Amar Thomas finally gets his every-down shot, and Corey Scott headlines a wide receiver room that might push JMU toward a 60-40 pass split. The guys also dig deep on JMU's 2026 recruiting class under Billy Napier — what 117 offers actually means, the brutal reality of verbal commitments in the transfer portal era, and the cutthroat business behind the scenes that even beloved coaches like Bob Chesney were running. Plus: a quick update on tight end KD Mosley's legal situation, the FOIA'd non-conference contracts with conference-exit language baked in, and the Sunbelt exit fee drama with Keith Gill pushing for a $25 million barrier. Whether you're tracking the recruiting Big Board at buymeacoffee.com/jmusportsnews or just want to know who's going to ball out in 2026, this is your essential JMU Football offseason breakdown. ️ CHAPTER MARKERS 0:00 Intro & JMU Recruiting Big Board Update 1:05 Verbal Commitments Mean Nothing — The Reality of Modern Recruiting 2:28 117 Offers, 17 Commits: Breaking Down JMU's Class 5:00 NIL, Rev Share & How JMU Competes with P4 Schools 6:20 Transfer Portal Chaos: Revoked Offers 8:49 Podcast Schedule Update + Show Format Preview 10:15 The Draft Format Explained: Underclassmen vs. Upperclassmen 11:23 Pick 1 (Underclassmen): JC Evans — Phil Steele Says He's QB1 12:47 Phil Steele's QB Depth Chart Breakdown 14:05 JC Evans vs. Camden Coleman: Who Fits Napier's System? 17:00 Pick 2 (Underclassmen): Deacon Rawls 20:00 Pick 3 (Underclassmen) 24:00 Pick 4 (Underclassmen): Seth Gatherrs, Rising Star Safety 27:01 TJ McGill & the Safety Room — Reason for Optimism or Concern? 28:37 Flashback: Cignetti's Defense, Chauncey, and the UVA Game 30:54 Upperclassmen Draft Begins 31:05 Pick 1 (Upperclassmen): Tyler Brown — Napier to Deion to Back Again 32:31 Pick 2 (Upperclassmen): Kells Bush — Preseason All-Sunbelt? 34:33 Pick 3 (Upperclassmen): Gannon Wethersby, 100-Tackle Candidate 35:15 Pick 4 (Upperclassmen): Amar Thomas Gets His Every-Down Shot 36:05 Pick 5 (Upperclassmen): Corey Scott & the WR Corps 37:28 Could JMU Go 60-40 Pass Split in 2025? 40:00 Camden Coleman Revisited — Why Is He QB3?! 43:12 Phil Steele's Depth Chart Methodology & Surprises 44:51 KD Mosley Legal Update 47:05 FOIA'd Non-Conference Contracts — Exit Clause Language 47:57 Sunbelt Exit Fee Drama: Keith Gill Pushes $25M Barrier 49:48 Outro, ULM Chair Night, Earl Grey Debate Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Brady Edmunds, who is making his official visit to Ohio State this weekend, met with the media during Wednesday's 7-on-7 competition at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center. This is a big weekend for Edmunds and the Buckeyes, as the two sides discuss where things stand in his recruitment. Edmunds has been committed to Ohio State for about 18 months, but there have been questions about whether he will end up in the class, and he recently visited UCLA. Edmunds discussed what he's hoping to learn from the OSU coaching staff this weekend, what he likes about UCLA and new head coach Bob Chesney, and more.

Ohio State's 2027 recruiting class could be on the verge of some very big changes. Brady Edmunds, the only quarterback currently committed to the Buckeyes, is visiting UCLA and its up-and-coming head coach Bob Chesney this weekend. What could this mean for Ryan Day's 2027 recruiting class, and how does this fit in with the Buckeyes' pursuit of 2027 QB Trae Taylor, who is currently committed to Nebraska?Juck Miletti of BuckeyeInsiders.com joins host Tom Orr to discuss that and much more on this episode of the Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning podcast.  This episode of the Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning podcast is presented by Jeff Ruby's Columbus, the award-winning upscale steakhouse in downtown Columbus, named one of the top-50 steakhouses in America by Food Network.

In this edition of the BROCast Mailbag, Dave goes deep, answering all your questions about Tounde Yessoufou, the basketball program, and where things go from here, with some occasional palate-cleansing football and Star Wars questions. I answered all your questions to the best of my ability about Tounde Yessoufou, what went wrong for UCLA in the recruitment, why the Bruins were unable to close on their priority targets in the portal, how all of that portends for this season, what it means for Mick Cronin's job status, and every single permutation of those situations that you all, exhaustively, asked about. I also answered questions about football recruiting, the offense, Nico Iamaleava, Bob Chesney at UCLA, which were all a nice palate cleanser after discussing basketball for an absurd amount of time. This thing ran two hours, but I somehow found time for a 10-minute soliloquy about Star Wars content and why more things in that universe should be made by people who have apathy or disdain for Star Wars, and fewer things made by fanboys. You can listen to the whole thing here. If anything doesn't make sense, blame my brain liquefying at the 45 minute mark. Bruin Report Online is now at On3!

In this edition of the BROCast, Dave and Tracy talk about the basketball transfer class as it's currently constituted and then discuss the final missing pieces in UCLA's football recruiting class. We led off with a discussion of the basketball transfer recruiting class as it is presently constituted. While UCLA still had irons in the fire with a few prospects -- including NBA Draft hopeful Tounde Yessoufou -- the program did announce its four transfers who have already signed this week, so we thought it would be a good time to take a larger look at the roster. As it stands right now, there are still two key missing pieces on the roster -- the three and the five -- and filling at least one of the two is going to be critical for fielding a roster capable of making a deep run in the NCAA Tournament. We then shifted gears to football recruiting, where the Bruins have obviously been very successful in Bob Chesney's first full cycle. Tracy talked about some of the missing pieces on the roster, including offensive tackle, and how UCLA might go about filling those holes. Bruin Report Online is now at On3!

In this edition of the BROCast, Dave and Tracy talk about how their thinking on the UCLA football depth chart has changed since the end of spring, give their thoughts on the upcoming official visit weekend, and then discuss a little about Tounde Yessoufou's decision between the NBA Draft and returning to college. We go position-by-position through the UCLA football depth chart now that we've had a little distance from the spring, breaking down the adjustments we've made from our mid-spring depth chart and why those adjustments have been made. We then talked about Tracy's story on the massive transformation Bob Chesney has already put together with UCLA football, and then talked a bit about where we stand on UCLA's over/under win total projection for 2026. We discussed the upcoming official visit weekend as well, with multiple key commitments as well as a few quality targets arriving on campus Friday. Finally, we touched on Tounde Yessoufou, the Baylor transfer that UCLA has targeted, and what his thinking might be on NBA Draft vs. returning to college. Bruin Report Online is now at On3!

We’re midway through May, which means it’s time to start talking ourselves into, and out of, what the 2026 college football season could become. In this episode, we turn the month itself into a game with a Big Ten “Mayyyyybe” vibe check, asking which scenarios feel realistic, which ones feel like offseason nonsense, and which ones might look strangely prescient by November. Could Ohio State’s schedule create a real College Football Playoff problem? Is Maryland quietly positioned to take a step forward? Can Wisconsin stabilize things for Luke Fickell, Iowa mess around with a playoff run, or UCLA become one of the more interesting teams in the conference under Bob Chesney? We also dig into Oregon’s internal coordinator hires, Michigan’s tricky first year under Kyle Whittingham, and USC’s unlucky, unforgiving schedule. Along the way, there are schedule sandwiches, quarterback questions, offensive line concerns, coaching crush rankings, a surprising amount of hernia talk, and more.

On this episode of the JT Sports Podcast, JT breaks down why Oklahoma's brutal schedule may actually have hidden advantages if the Sooners can survive a front-loaded stretch against Michigan, Georgia, and Texas. JT also explains why Colorado could be trending up in year four under Deion Sanders with Brennan Marion taking over the offense and Julian “JuJu” Lewis bringing stability at quarterback. Florida gets the spotlight after hiring Jon Sumrall, and JT looks at why the Gators needed a coach who can stabilize the program, win close games, and bring real urgency back to The Swamp. Florida State's coaching search gets discussed with Jimbo Fisher's name floating around, raising questions about whether FSU needs nostalgia or a true modern reset. Oregon's national title ceiling under Dan Lanning is also debated as JT examines the Ducks' rematch problem against elite teams, especially with CFP expansion making repeat matchups more likely. Plus, UCLA's early recruiting momentum under Bob Chesney, what it means for the Bruins in the Big Ten, and whether USC could have another real recruiting battle brewing in Los Angeles.

Will is joined by 247Sports's Connor Morrissette to talk about how new head coach Bob Chesney and UCLA Football have found a way back to their recruiting ways of the old and have landed a top 3 class in the early aughts of 2027 and who are some of the talented kids that UCLA has brought in to help Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Bill Connelly from ESPN.com stops by to walk us through the post-spring college football landscape, fresh off turning in 7,000 words on the MAC and kicking off his annual conference preview series. We get into how the portal era has transformed his prep work, why the SEC has become a "horizontal" conference of strong middles, and which conferences are hardest to make sense of right now. Bill evaluates the Big 12 after the Brendan Sorsby news, talks up a few mid-major teams to watch, and explains why he still doesn't fully trust Texas the way the rest of the country does. We also dig into the Bob Chesney's roster build at UCLA, Oklahoma State's full offensive transfusion, Lane Kiffin's quarterback insurance policy, and what to make of the pairing of Bryce Underwood and Kyle Whittingham in Ann Arbor. Bill also shares his Alabama skepticism, his read on Indiana's encore, and why he's increasingly intrigued by Texas A&M. And, to close things out, a little World Cup talk in advance of this summer's tournament.

Stay connected with us at americangroundradio.com, on Facebook, and Instagram. You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for April 21, 2026. We open with a bombshell — the Justice Department has indicted the Southern Poverty Law Center on 11 counts including wire fraud, bank fraud, and money laundering, alleging that the SPLC secretly funneled more than $3 million to white supremacist and extremist groups — the very groups they claim to be fighting. We dig into what this means, why the demand for racism has always outpaced the actual supply, how organizations like the SPLC have built entire fundraising empires off a defamation map that lists Catholic charities and Turning Point USA alongside the KKK, and why it's no coincidence that this indictment came almost immediately after Pam Bondi's exit and Todd Blanche's arrival at the DOJ. In our Top 3 Things You Need to Know, Florida Democrat Congresswoman Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick resigned from Congress minutes before the House Ethics Committee was set to determine sanctions against her — after being found guilty on 25 of 27 charges for stealing COVID relief money and funneling it into her own campaign. Then the House Judiciary Committee released a preliminary report on ActBlue showing that two employees took the Fifth 146 times in depositions, and that ActBlue deliberately weakened its own fraud prevention protocols twice in the run-up to the 2024 election — after which it reported record fundraising, including from donors in Brazil, Colombia, Iraq, Jordan, Myanmar, and Saudi Arabia. And Virginia voters are deciding whether to adopt a new congressional map drawn by Democrats to give them a 10-to-1 advantage in a state that votes Democrat by about 55% — not 90%. Our American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson respond to a viral clip of UCLA football coach Bob Chesney asking his players if they know the name of the man who makes their omelets — and why every person on the support staff deserves to be known by name. We talk about what it says about a person's character when they take the time to learn the names of people who serve them, why Teri's father used restaurant behavior as a business litmus test, and what it means that people who have worked in the Trump White House consistently say he knows not just their names but their kids' names and how their family is doing. In our Digging Deep segment, newly declassified documents obtained by Just the News reveal that U.S. intelligence warned in January 2020 that foreign adversaries had the capability to compromise America's voting infrastructure — and that both China and Iran did in fact penetrate voter registration databases in multiple states before the 2020 election. That information was suppressed until November 2021. When President Trump ordered it released in November 2020, the CIA refused the direct order. China didn't just hack the databases — they registered fake voters and sent fake IDs from China to match those registrations. We talk about what that means for the narrative that 2020 was the most secure election in American history, why losing trust in elections causes people to stop voting, and what has to happen before this country can restore confidence in its own electoral system. We also cover the Supreme Court ruling that $166 billion in tariff refunds must be issued to businesses — and point out that the consumers who actually absorbed those costs at the register will see none of it, because there was never a line-item tariff charge on your receipt. For our Bright Spot, Alan Dershowitz — lifelong Democrat, Harvard Law professor, Brooklyn-raised Jewish-American who has been a registered Democrat for 67 years — has officially switched his registration to Republican. He wrote an op-ed in the New York Times explaining why. One reason: the Democrat Party has become, in his words, the most anti-Israel party in American history. We talk about what it means when one of the most prominent Jewish legal minds in America concludes he can no longer stay. We also get into Miss Universe adding another biological male competitor — and ask the straightforward question of why the one competition specifically designed to celebrate women is being systematically redesigned to exclude them. And we close with Jamie Lee Mateus, a man who is admittedly a terrible painter, whose wife posted one of his bad family portraits as a joke — and who now runs a thriving side business called Terrible Art by Jamie Lee, completing hundreds of commissions for customers around the world.

In this edition of the BROCast, Dave and Tracy talk about what they've seen from UCLA football in spring practice so far, how football recruiting is going, and how the two basketball programs are doing in the Transfer Portal. We led off with a discussion of the high energy of football practice so far, with Bob Chesney's energy (as evidenced in his Mic'd Up video" leading the charge. We then went position by position through the depth chart to see if we can start to suss out where we can see real depth forming. We then dove into a discussion of football recruiting, where UCLA has already landed three four-stars and is in the mix for several more. Is a Top 25 class likely? Is a top 15 class possible? We discuss. Finally, we closed with a discussion of the roster build so far for men's and women's basketball, and what we're hearing on the remaining options. Dave and Tracy talk about liking the men's roster build generally, but also discuss whether it's a case of building the right roster a few years too late. Bruin Report Online is now at On3!

Lots to chat about this week Bruins and we've got it all covered in this episode! We chat about the Jekyll and Hyde act MBB is doing- getting blown out by OSU and then coming home to upset #4 Purdue in exciting fashion- and how they need to parlay some momentum into consistency.

Lastly, we discuss the absolutely insane recruiting job that Bob Chesney is doing upon his arrival in Westwood and why UCLA fans should be hyped. Check it all out right here!

Not sure what Wayne ate for breakfast today, but he came out of the gates on an absolute heater. We're talking Fernando Mendoza in the CFP type of heater. Just straight flames. In addition to the semifinal reaction and the obvious lookahead to Monday night's national championship, there are rants about the death of the SEC, capitalism, the over-value of players in the portal, and - you guessed it - what Bob Chesney is doing to re-build the roster in Westwood. Thankfully Phil Steele joins the show to talk some sense into this program with some balanced perspective and opinions on what's coming up next week at Hard Rock. Who does Phil like to win the game, and how does he feel about the over/under? You're going to want to stick around for those picks.

In this episode of the Podcast of Champions hosts Ryan Abraham and David Woods talk about Indiana's victory over Ohio State in the Big Ten Title game, and then the placement for each of the Big Ten teams in the Playoffs. With the Hoosiers and Buckeyes being the top-2 seeds, both programs get a bye and with Oregon coming in at No. 5, the Ducks get a home game against the lowest ranked program in the field, James Madison University. Then they get to the real news: what in the hell is going on in the state of Michigan? Sherrone Moore fired and arrested? The fellas dive deep. There were also two official coaching hires in the Big Ten, with Penn State hiring Matt Campbell from Iowa State and UCLA hires Bob Chesney from the aforementioned JMU.
