Is Dante Moore making the RIGHT decision by staying at Oregon? Arch Manning as Ari's #1 | Trinidad Chambliss Granted Injunction

Happy Friday! It’s a Dear Andy & Ari episode, and to send you into the weekend, we have some questions on quarterbacks and a top 10 list from Ari to breakdown. Earlier in the week, Kirk Herbstreit joined our friends at Crain and Cone to evaluate the top QBs headed into the 2026 season. With Dante Moore returning to Oregon, Herbstreit thought it was the right decision. Do you agree? Let us know here!

Moving on to Ari’s QB list, he’s got Arch Manning as his #1 quarterback. With a bet to run 5 miles on the line, Ari doubles down and ranks the Longhorns QB as his top quarterback before the 2026 season. Do you agree? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

Meanwhile, over in North Dakota, the Bison of NDSU are gearing up for their big jump to FBS by joining the Mountain West conference. However, a rule placed by the NCAA currently prohibits the Bison from competing for the conference championship and postseason play. Will this rule be changed? Andy & Ari think it should be.

Closing out Dear Andy & Ari, in honor of James Van Der Beek from Varsity Blues, the fellas rank their top fictional uniforms. Which is your favorite?

To wrap up the show, the guys revisit the news of Trinidad Chambliss being granted an injunction in court on Thursday afternoon. Watch here as Andy & Ari recap it all.
