Colorado Buffs Size, NFL Draft Intel, Iowa NCAA Penalties, Marcus Freeman, & More

George Wrighster breaks down Deion Sanders and Colorado football, Iowa football and NCAA tampering penalties, Marcus Freeman’s viral Esquire feature, Sherrone Moore’s sentencing and future, and the 2026 NFL Draft in this loaded Unafraid Show live episode. This is a full college football conversation built around Colorado’s roster size, Kirk Ferentz and Cade McNamara, Notre Dame head coach Marcus Freeman, Michigan’s coaching fallout, and top NFL Draft names like Fernando Mendoza, Ty Simpson, Reuben Bain, Kenyon Sadiq, Dylan Thieneman, and more. The biggest issue, according to George, is that college football keeps giving fans chaos from every angle. He explains why Colorado really does look small compared to top programs, why Deion Sanders’ 2026 season may come down to the first four games, why Iowa getting hit with tampering penalties over Cade McNamara shows how broken NCAA enforcement still is, and why Marcus Freeman’s Esquire feature says a lot about how different modern coaching culture looks. George also breaks down why Sherrone Moore was not set up, why he still could deserve another coaching opportunity in the future, and then brings on Tony Pauline to talk the 2026 NFL Draft, including Fernando Mendoza as a potential QB1, Reuben Bain, Kenyon Sadiq, Ty Simpson, Carnell Tate, Dylan Thieneman, and more before closing with a top 10 mock draft.
