| 0:00.0 | What's going on, y'all? Welcome back to the Covers Free College Ball podcast. I'm Bud Elliott at |
| 0:04.2 | Andrew Ibins. That means this is the recruiting hour. Ivers, what's going on, dude? Not much, |
| 0:09.2 | bud. Five weeks away from the early signing period, aka signing day. And I think it's just going to get |
| 0:16.6 | crazy, right? This coaching carousel spinning. We entered this football season, right? Like the entire |
| 0:22.8 | top 247, everyone had made commitments. Now we're seeing a lot of movement. And I think as new |
| 0:29.0 | staffs get into place, it's shaping up for a crazy final stretch until pen meets paper. |
| 0:42.9 | I don't think anyone actually signs anything before the doc you sign is submitted and sent via an app. |
| 0:46.2 | Man, I'm excited to see some of these flips we might have on deck. |
| 0:49.6 | And one, our buddy, Barton Simmons, had this kid in town, five-star quarterback, Jared Curtis, visiting Vandy. |
| 0:58.3 | You saw Nate, the comedian there on game day, shouting him out multiple times trying to get him to flip from UGA. |

| 1:09.5 | It's not a position, I think, that flips quite as often. But when it does, it is usually around a coaching change. I don't think any coaching change is imminent at UGA or Vandy, but obviously some playing time and maybe an attractive offense to play in for Curtis there at Vandy. Give me the details. What are we thinking? Well, yeah, Tom Lloyd at 24-7 Sports, |
| 1:28.7 | has kind of been all over this. And it came across my desk late last week. Hey, Vanderbilt |
| 1:35.4 | involved with Jared Curtis, who like you said, is a five-star quarterback, right? And he's going to be |
| 1:41.2 | in the conversation for QB1 here in the 2026 cycle. |
| 1:45.8 | I mean, this kid is the real deal. Now he goes to school right there in Nashville. |
| 1:51.1 | And Bud, to me, this makes a ton of sense for Vanderbilt to kind of not like kick the tires, |
| 1:59.0 | but try to push all the chips in on Jared Curtis. |
| 2:02.8 | Because Diego Pavia, the pit bull, he's gone after the season, assuming something doesn't |
| 2:09.3 | happen in the court system. |
| 2:12.6 | And for Vanderbilt, which is in the national spotlight, which just hosted college game day, which is now favored |
| 2:20.7 | against all this SEC competition. |
