1 00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:02,360 Speaker 1: Good morning. You made it all the way to Thursday, 2 00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:04,840 Speaker 1: Week seven of the NFL KICKSOFF. Later on tonight, we'll 3 00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:06,760 Speaker 1: talk about that. The Colt's getting ready for a game 4 00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:09,239 Speaker 1: against the Chargers as they put their five to one 5 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:11,080 Speaker 1: record on the line against what we think is one 6 00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:13,399 Speaker 1: of the better teams in the AFC. But everybody's banged 7 00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:16,000 Speaker 1: up there. Everybody's banged up for the Colts. Good morning, 8 00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:19,160 Speaker 1: James Boyd, Good morning, Kevin Bowen. KB. We're minding our 9 00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:22,480 Speaker 1: own business and we're talking to Josh Downs on Monday, 10 00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:25,279 Speaker 1: and we're all joking about, Hey, you gave us a 11 00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:28,040 Speaker 1: scare there after the touchdown catch, like maybe you were hurt, 12 00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 1: but then you went into the dance. Maybe he was 13 00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:33,760 Speaker 1: hurt when it all shook out the other day, right. 14 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:36,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, And James, I thought you pointed out, well, you know, 15 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:39,120 Speaker 2: he took a couple of big hits late in that game, 16 00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:41,680 Speaker 2: not just that touchdown, if I'm not mistaken, the third 17 00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:45,240 Speaker 2: and eight that led to Jonathan Taylor's game winning score. 18 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:47,279 Speaker 2: I want to say Josh Downs maybe even came out 19 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:48,960 Speaker 2: of the game after that play. 20 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, And that was one of those. 21 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,160 Speaker 2: Where boy, I feel like I was on the binoculars 22 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 2: a lot on Sunday with all the chaos that happened. 23 00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 2: But that was when I was like, wait a minute, 24 00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 2: where where is he is? Someone looking at him? You know, 25 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 2: one of those moments day and then all of a sudden, 26 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 2: you know, they score and Brisett starts to lead that 27 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 2: drive and I kind of forgot about it, and the 28 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 2: Colts really never had a meaningful snap the rest of 29 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 2: the game. So unfortunately, you do see this where Traveris 30 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:13,039 Speaker 2: Ward earlier in the year was one of them where 31 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,680 Speaker 2: they don't leave the game necessarily due to a concussion, 32 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:20,319 Speaker 2: but then Monday rolls around and symptoms start to develop. 33 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:21,639 Speaker 1: So yeah, right. 34 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:23,680 Speaker 2: Now, you know, heading into the second practice of the 35 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 2: week to various war Josh downs, both in concussion protocol, 36 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:30,120 Speaker 2: neither practice yesterday, and typically those are not good signs 37 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 2: for that player playing that Sunday. 38 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 1: What does that mean for the slot for the Indianapolis 39 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 1: Colts coming up on Sunday. 40 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:39,120 Speaker 3: It's a good question. I wonder if Adi Mitchell will 41 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 3: go out of a doghouse orhere they rolled with somebody else. 42 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 3: I think this will tell us just how much they 43 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:43,959 Speaker 3: believe or don't believe in him. 44 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 2: Revenge again for Adie Mitchell back in. 45 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 3: That Oh lord, here is some of those questions yesterday 46 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 3: about that. I feel like if I was a player, 47 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 3: i'd have been like, first of all, it's not even 48 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 3: the same team. 49 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:57,559 Speaker 1: So. 50 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 3: I get I get it. Yes, it's an easy kind 51 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 3: of narrative through out there. Oh, your only loss of 52 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 3: the season is going out west. You got to go 53 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 3: back out there to that same stadium, the House of Horrors. 54 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 3: But it's like it's only a house of horrors because 55 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 3: you made it that. I mean, the loss is one thing, 56 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 3: but for Adie Mitchell, no one affected you on that play. 57 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,360 Speaker 3: That was you. So I do wonder seriously if he'll 58 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 3: get a chance to play, or if they'll say, hey, 59 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 3: you know what, we still have Pittman, we still have 60 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 3: Alec Pearce, and we'll roll with Ashton Dulan, We'll put 61 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 3: Anthony Gould out there, we'll call up Lakwan tread Well. 62 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 3: I don't know, but I think that's a very interesting 63 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 3: situation for Adie Mitchell to be in because as we 64 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 3: have seen the last couple weeks, he's kind of been 65 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 3: taking some you know, special teams reps and what I understand, 66 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 3: you know, a scout team stuff like that, where he's 67 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 3: clearly not going to be part of the game plan 68 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 3: at least a big part of it. So how does 69 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 3: that change things, especially with the Josh downs absence being 70 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 3: early in the week, you know, had this happen today 71 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 3: or tomorrow, I don't know how much that changes things. 72 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 3: So unfortunate for Josh. So I did speak to obviously 73 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 3: here on the radio, but after the game as well, 74 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 3: and sounded fine. But like you said, Kevin thinks can 75 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 3: kind of be slow developing over time. And fortunately, you know, 76 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 3: as bad as you want guys to play, I'm always 77 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 3: glad when I hear I'll probably talk to Josh about this. 78 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 3: It's like you recognize thing yourself. I'm not good because 79 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 3: obviously no one else caught it, but you the person 80 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 3: who's feeling it. 81 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: Well, we'll talk about the Colts and what they're gonna 82 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,919 Speaker 1: do there wide receiver all morning long. It's a big 83 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,639 Speaker 1: game for them as they have a kid. Look, there's 84 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 1: no way around it, Kevin. They're five and one, and 85 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: the Chargers are a team that everybody thinks is gonna 86 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 1: be there at the end. Another opportunity to not only 87 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 1: get a road win, but just not's another one on 88 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 1: your belt for an AFC opponent. This is a big 89 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 1: game for the Colts. 90 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's I think it's a great test. 91 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 2: I'm very high on Justin Herbert as a football player, 92 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 2: and I don't think the Chargers have a lot of 93 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 2: other guys that are pretty good. 94 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 4: Now. 95 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 2: They're banged up in their own right in some specific 96 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 2: areas that are critical to the game. So you know, 97 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 2: how can each of these teams obviously attack their weaknesses. 98 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 2: They're really banged up an offensive tackle, for example, and 99 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 2: they've struggled in stopping the run, which you know should 100 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 2: make Jonathan Taylor be pretty pretty excited about this matchup here. 101 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 2: So I think it's one of the better games in 102 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 2: Week seven. I think we've kind of been waiting. Me 103 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 2: speaking from my own standpoint, I've kind of been waiting 104 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 2: for this since the Rams game. 105 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 3: You know, it's like the Raiders and Cardinals were a 106 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:25,039 Speaker 3: little bit of a. 107 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: Slog for me. 108 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 2: I can only imagine. I think the Colts feel that. 109 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 2: You know, it's not often Shane Steichen immediately mentions the 110 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 2: next opponent postgame. You know, Josh Downs even mentioned it 111 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,279 Speaker 2: running off the field on Sunday, Like, I think the 112 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 2: guys knew that. 113 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, Raiders, Cardinals, it's the NFL. 114 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 2: You take everybody the same, Yeah, whoopie do this is 115 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 2: a little different. You're in the four o'clock window. CBS 116 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 2: sending their second team Justin Herbert is not Jacoby Brissett 117 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 2: and Gino Smith. I think this one does carry a 118 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 2: little bit more weight. 119 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: All right, A lot of good stuff. I don't know. 120 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 1: There was no Pacers game last night. There was no 121 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,679 Speaker 1: really local action to take part in. Are you still 122 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: on the baseball bandwagon? Do you watch any of the 123 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: Blue Jays? And no, you're out on that. 124 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 3: I'm a Dodgers guy, you know. Just just pay the 125 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:14,919 Speaker 3: best players and make sure that they win. I support 126 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:16,479 Speaker 3: teams that spend money to be good. 127 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,920 Speaker 1: So you're all about buying the success. 128 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 3: Let's go absolutely. I think it's ridiculous when teams try 129 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 3: to act like it if there's some badge of honor 130 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 3: for being Oh you know what, our payroll was actually 131 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 3: ten times less than theirs, and we took them to 132 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 3: how many games and you still lost? Don't care spend 133 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:33,600 Speaker 3: the money. 134 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,479 Speaker 1: Kevin, you partaking any baseball last night? 135 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 2: Did you let it go by, I did not, so 136 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 2: have we really had five games in the championship series 137 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 2: and the road team has won every single game? 138 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 3: Is this correct? 139 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 1: Every single one? Wow? 140 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 2: So Joel Erickson should be feeling good about his Brewers 141 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 2: getting back to work tonight. 142 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, and look at everybody last night. It started off 143 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: with a Julio Rodriguez leadoff home run in the first innings. 144 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 1: Back to back home in the first inning for him 145 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,359 Speaker 1: in two games, and everybody's going crazy in Seattle. And 146 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: you think, all right, Mariners are rolling right now, this 147 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: is their year. And Toronto put on the hit and 148 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 1: sticks like every Vlad Guerrero got on base five times, 149 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 1: he was four for four, he had a home run. 150 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 1: He was just a one man wrecking crew last night. 151 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,280 Speaker 1: And the Blue Jays are back in it now. Two 152 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 1: games to one for the Mariners. So a lot going on. 153 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 1: And they got NFL coming up later on tonight. Pacers 154 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 1: don't play till tomorrow. We got college basketball starting tomorrow, 155 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 1: so we're getting ready to head into a very busy time. 156 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,479 Speaker 1: And like I said, I wake up every morning and 157 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 1: I checked just to make sure. Yes, Indiana football is 158 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 1: still ranked number three in the country. Yes, the Colts 159 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:45,159 Speaker 1: are five and one right now. Yes, everybody's excited about 160 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 1: possibilities for Indiana basketball, though nobody really knows what's going on. 161 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,600 Speaker 1: And Purdue is ranked number one in the preseason poll 162 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: for the NCAA Men's basketball So it's good time to 163 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,039 Speaker 1: be here, man, Yeah, probably a really good time to 164 00:06:58,080 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: be here. 165 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 2: Probably could wait on minching Indiana basketball with those other 166 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 2: teams given their recent history here.

Will tell you all about everything else 291 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: as we continue on ninety three to five and seven 292 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 1: to five of the Fan, Indianapolis Colts getting ready to 293 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:21,079 Speaker 1: go into Week seven of the National Football League. They 294 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,839 Speaker 1: are five and one, tied for the best record in 295 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: the league. They'll be playing one of the better teams 296 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 1: in the AFC on Sunday afternoon in the Los Angeles Chargers, 297 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 1: kickoff at four h five. Our coverage starts at one 298 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 1: right here on ninety three five and one oh seven 299 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,200 Speaker 1: five of the Fan and James Boyd. We got some 300 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 1: unexpected news from a wide receiver, or at least about 301 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: a wide receiver from the Colts yesterday. 302 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 3: What happened, Yeah, Josh Downs was not out there practice. 303 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 3: He did not practice due to a concussion. So he's 304 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 3: one of two players right now for the Colt starter 305 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 3: in concussion protocol, joining Javarius Mooney Ward. But yeah, after 306 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 3: I saw he wasn't at practice, I went back and 307 00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 3: found the last couple of plays that he played in 308 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 3: that game, reshared him on social media because I thought 309 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 3: in the moment he got hit pretty hard. But at 310 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 3: the time I didn't think nothing of it, because he 311 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 3: spoke to him here on the radio, and I spoke 312 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 3: to him after the game and he seemed fine. So 313 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 3: obviously those the symptoms were late developing. But yeah, typically 314 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 3: when a player does enter the concussion protocol, they usually 315 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 3: missed the next game at least. So what does that 316 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:24,480 Speaker 3: mean for the rest of the Colts wide receiver room. 317 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 1: That's a good question, Kevin Bowen, who's going to play 318 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:29,959 Speaker 1: in the slot? I know that we've got ad Mitchell 319 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 1: was a little bit in the doghouse right now, and 320 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 1: Anthony Gold's never really done that. He's played just a 321 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,680 Speaker 1: couple of plays outside of special teams in his career. 322 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:39,319 Speaker 1: So what are the Colts options right now? 323 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:41,959 Speaker 2: Well, certainly, Tyler Warren, I think you start there. You know, 324 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 2: last year when Down's missed, it was mostly Ady Mitchell 325 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 2: and then a little bit more of Ashton Doolan to 326 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 2: start last season. We'll see where Doulan's at too. He 327 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,080 Speaker 2: did miss yesterday at the chest injury. For what it's worth, 328 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 2: he was at practice though, But yes, I would assume 329 00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,680 Speaker 2: a heavy amount of Tyler warrenon in that matchup. Tyler 330 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 2: Warren Derwin James for the Chargers. That's best on best. 331 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,840 Speaker 2: So I think that's one you circle just out entertainment purposes. 332 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,200 Speaker 2: But we know Downs has been very, very effective, and 333 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 2: how the Colts decide to, you know, reorganize their wideouts 334 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 2: will be interesting. Last year it really stuck out like 335 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 2: a sore thumb. But I feel like the presence of 336 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 2: Warren could help you out in that area a little 337 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 2: bit more. 338 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, as far as other injuries are concerned, Kenny Moore 339 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 1: the second still working on getting back Mooney Ward's been 340 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: in concussion protocol for a while now. Any update on 341 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 1: those guys after yesterday's. 342 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 3: Practice, Well, no, not on Mooney, He's just in concussion protocol. 343 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 3: And then I think Kenny might have been limited in 344 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 3: practice yesterday, which is still progressing from not practicing the 345 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 3: last three weeks, I believe, So we will see if 346 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:47,359 Speaker 3: he continues to progress today if he is a full participant. 347 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 3: But you know, I don't know if there's like a 348 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 3: sure fire answer for you just yet on Kenny Morris 349 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 3: status going into the Chargers game. 350 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 1: All right, Colts and Chargers four five Sunday afternoon, and 351 00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 1: later on tonight in the NFL Week seven kicks off 352 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 1: the Steelers at the Bengals. That one will be I 353 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 1: believe on Amazon TV. That's the Thursday night package these days. 354 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: All right, let's talk college football. I you hosting Michigan 355 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,400 Speaker 1: State at three point thirty on Saturday afternoon. They are 356 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 1: sitting there with a number three ranking and a lot 357 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 1: of expectations now, and Kurtzignetti keeps talking about Kevin how 358 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:21,640 Speaker 1: they just have to play who's in front of him, 359 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 1: not get ahead of themselves, and do the things they 360 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 1: they keep doing. This is probably a pretty good test 361 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 1: these next couple of weeks to make sure they just 362 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 1: stay on track, don't lose focus of what they're doing, 363 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 1: and don't overlook some of these teams that on paper 364 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: look inferior. 365 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I didn't realize Michigan State was such a 366 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 2: dysfunctional mess. 367 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: Oh. 368 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 3: Their trouble h Indiana about a. 369 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 2: Four touchdown favorites, lots of people calling for Jonathan Smith's job. 370 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 2: He's only been on the job for a year and 371 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 2: a half. I believe they've lost to was it UCLA? 372 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 3: Maybe I'm trying to think. Could they recently lost to? 373 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 2: And I guess they had some players that came from 374 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 2: Michigan State and they called them out after the game 375 00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 2: of like there's no effort, blah blah blah. So Michigan 376 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 2: Jonathan Smith, for those unfamiliar, came from Oregon State, never 377 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 2: really had big ten Midwest ties, and it just sounds 378 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:07,920 Speaker 2: like this marriage is not going anywhere. So I was 379 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 2: a little surprised the line was that big. But this 380 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 2: looks like the ultimate homecoming opponent for Indiana and they 381 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 2: should beat the doors off Michigan State. 382 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 3: Oh wait, so real quick, you said that Michigan State 383 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 3: had players transfer. 384 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 2: That played on UCLA and then they played their former 385 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 2: team and after the game they were like, yeah, they're 386 00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 2: all checked out, they're not showing any effort. 387 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 3: So the new players on Michigan State called out their 388 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 3: new teammates saying no, no, no. 389 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 2: The UCLA players that transferred from Michigan State calling out 390 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:38,440 Speaker 2: they're old. 391 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 3: Oh teammates. Sorry, if that's told them. 392 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 2: It like it'd be like Indiana playing James Madison and 393 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 2: Aidan Fisher calling out the James Madison players. 394 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 3: Oh, I see what you're saying. 395 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 1: If that makes it? 396 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, that is that's cut thrown they had. Honestly, maybe 397 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 2: we should find the clip wait. 398 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 3: Which it should have been a tougher fight. 399 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 2: I mean, my goodness, I forget what city it was in, 400 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 2: but somebody in again one of their radio people up 401 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 2: there went on just a Jonathan Smith rant, just ripping 402 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,439 Speaker 2: him to shreds in how he has acted as a 403 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 2: head coach. They need to fire him this and that, 404 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 2: and like the record is not horrific. I mean it's 405 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,640 Speaker 2: not great, but like whatever they're I think you're three 406 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:16,760 Speaker 2: to nine in Big Ten games with them, so obviously 407 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 2: not good, but also not winless, and yet people are 408 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 2: just roasting them. So yeah, Indiana should uh roll. 409 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 1: All right. Purdue playing at Northwestern and right now the 410 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 1: Wildcats are three and a half point favorites. Vegas likes Purdue. 411 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 1: I do too. I think Purdue's got a good chance 412 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,639 Speaker 1: of going up there and getting a win against the Northwestern. 413 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 1: We'll see what happens. Up there in Evanston this weekend 414 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: number twenty USC at number thirteen, Notre Dame. Kevin's not 415 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 1: speaking to me outside of the show right now because 416 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 1: I'm gaining to take a trip with my son to 417 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 1: visit a college campus, and that campus happens to be USC. 418 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 3: He throws the sun in there, Kevin to kind of 419 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 3: get us a soften of I don't know, I'm fit. 420 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 3: I feel like Jeff was like, you know what we 421 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 3: should troll, Kevin Bowen, you don't really want to go 422 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 3: visit some other school, Let's go to USC so I 423 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 3: can tell my coworker where I'm going. 424 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 2: How many great schools are within driving radius or shorter 425 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 2: flying radius than. 426 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 3: You have on the school. 427 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,200 Speaker 1: So I've heard there may be a short trip to 428 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 1: Pepperdine while we're out there too. Jees, I don't think 429 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 1: he's personally going to the West coast, but who knows. 430 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:24,920 Speaker 1: It's his choice, so we'll see what happens. 431 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:27,359 Speaker 3: I'm not worried about Pepperdine. I'm worried about southern California. 432 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: Now, just take care of business on the football field 433 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:34,879 Speaker 1: Saturday night and you'll be Okay.

So I'm 440 00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 1: looking forward to hearing what coach Mada has to say 441 00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 1: coming up at eight thirty. You'll be able to hear 442 00:18:58,359 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: that game on our sister station. 443 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:00,159 Speaker 4: Now. 444 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:03,920 Speaker 1: Now we are the rights holders to Butler basketball this year, 445 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 1: but because they bump up against the Pacers so many 446 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:09,679 Speaker 1: times and Pacers have priority, a lot of these conflict 447 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:12,919 Speaker 1: games will go to ninety two point seven FM. That 448 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 1: is Spanish speaking Fuego. But it will start at six 449 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:17,439 Speaker 1: thirty tomorrow night. It will air at seven in The 450 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,120 Speaker 1: games will air in English. 451 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 3: Mark Menner speaking Spanish Gardner. 452 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 1: We'll ask, but that's where the game. But it's a 453 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,479 Speaker 1: terrific signal. The reason we chose that one because it's 454 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 1: a great signal. You can hear it all over the place. 455 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:29,120 Speaker 1: Exhibition game. 456 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 2: Just be clear, Butler Notre Dame coming up tomorrow and 457 00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 2: obviously Notre Dame for those unfamiliar lots of Butler ties. 458 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 2: Michael Shrewsbury, Brad Stevens's son is on the Notre Dame roster, 459 00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:41,199 Speaker 2: so I would think that'd be pretty cool for Brady Stevens, 460 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,399 Speaker 2: especially to be back inside hinklefield House tomorrow night where 461 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,440 Speaker 2: he probably shot a lot of baskets. 462 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 3: As a young kid. Say buckets, I'll botch you. 463 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:52,440 Speaker 6: Say. 464 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,879 Speaker 3: Do you think Gordon Hayward, as the executive basketball advisor 465 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 3: will get in on some of these scrimmages. I mean, 466 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,119 Speaker 3: better to learn on the all right, you can. He 467 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 3: cannot walk back into Butler and not get some buckets 468 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 3: against those guys. He has to remind them, hey, look 469 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 3: I kind of built this place. 470 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 1: He's less than a year and a half of being 471 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:17,919 Speaker 1: an NBA player, so let's go levels to this. Yeah. Anyway, 472 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,400 Speaker 1: Tomorrow Night's Pacers will be heard right here on ninety 473 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 1: three five and one oh seven to five of the fan. 474 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,119 Speaker 1: They'll be taking on the San Antonio Spurs in the 475 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:27,119 Speaker 1: final exhibition game or preseason game, depending on how you 476 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,480 Speaker 1: want to look at it of the season. Against San 477 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:32,879 Speaker 1: Antonio seven thirty start eight pm tip off, and of 478 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 1: course the great Mark Boyle will have the play by play. 479 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 1: Anything else you guys want to throw in real quick 480 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:37,680 Speaker 1: on this Thursday morning. 481 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,400 Speaker 3: We did get an answer for our question yesterday from 482 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 3: Wally Cox.

I thought it was 488 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 1: fascinating some of his conversation that he had with Joel 489 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 1: Klatt this week. We'll do that next as we continue 490 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:04,840 Speaker 1: at ninety three five and one O seven to five 491 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 1: the fan, Good morning.

I am here 496 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 1: for all of it. I'm looking forward to it. A 497 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 1: moment ago, we had those worlds collide football and basketball 498 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:30,359 Speaker 1: because so many NFL players love playing basketball, and a 499 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,119 Speaker 1: lot of them will tell you they're really really good 500 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 1: at basketball, and they probably are because they're great athletes. James, 501 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: but you were having a conversation with mo Ali Cox 502 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 1: about what yesterday. 503 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 3: So we talked about this on our airwaves. We were saying, Hey, 504 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,720 Speaker 3: if you had to pick five Colts players to be 505 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 3: in your starting five for basketball, who would you pick? 506 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 3: And so we throw out our names, and I believe 507 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 3: it was Kevin who reminded me, Hey, you should ask 508 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 3: some of the guys in the locker room today. So 509 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 3: I went over to Molai Cox, who's got in the 510 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 3: locker room as I're waiting for Daniel Jones because that's, 511 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:00,320 Speaker 3: you know, obviously way more important than this. But I 512 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 3: was like, you know what, we got time to kill. 513 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:06,120 Speaker 3: Who is your starting five? From the former college basketball 514 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:10,880 Speaker 3: player himself form VCU forward and Mary Cox chose himself. 515 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 3: He chose Daniel Jones, he chose Ashton Doolan, and then 516 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:22,160 Speaker 3: I believe he chose Anthony Richardson and I'm missing one 517 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 3: that he chose, so I have to go back and look. Yes, 518 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:29,639 Speaker 3: J T. Twey Mullowow, who, by the way, he played 519 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,879 Speaker 3: his AU basketball with Polo bn Caro, who is the 520 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 3: number one pick down there in Orlando. So that's his five. 521 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 3: I was a little surprised that we didn't get some 522 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:40,160 Speaker 3: Riley Leonard Love point forward. 523 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 2: Daniel Jones is what he called Jones, right. 524 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:44,439 Speaker 3: Yes, but I told you he could hoop. I mean, 525 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 3: I've talked to the guys about this, and apparently they 526 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 3: had a little pow wow at Butler months ago, right 527 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 3: around the time of like OTA's and Mini Camp and 528 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 3: all that stuff, and they said that, well, I acu 529 00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:58,200 Speaker 3: use it for a story a while back, and Jaylen 530 00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 3: Jones told me, hey, we were, you know, trying to 531 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:01,919 Speaker 3: figure out a way to bond. You know, we were 532 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,200 Speaker 3: in the locker room arguing over who can really hoop, 533 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 3: who can really play? And he was like, you know what, 534 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:08,200 Speaker 3: line it up, Let us go out there and play. 535 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,119 Speaker 3: And so they said they went over to Butler and 536 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 3: Daniel Jones didn't have any shoes to play basketball in. 537 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 3: I guess you didn't bring him with him, you know, 538 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:16,399 Speaker 3: from New York. And so they had to find some 539 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:19,359 Speaker 3: shoes first, lace the shoes up, and then he told 540 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 3: me that this is Jalen Jones, that is he said 541 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:25,560 Speaker 3: that Daniel Jones started hitting them with some moves that 542 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 3: were like some Dirt Novinsky bleep bleep bleep and some 543 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,919 Speaker 3: Tim Duncan bleep bleep bleep that I can't repeat. But 544 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 3: he's a bad you know what. According to his teammates, we. 545 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:38,639 Speaker 1: Should get like nine of those guys and then Gordon 546 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:40,920 Speaker 1: Hayward over there at Hincklefield House and Gordon can show 547 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:41,440 Speaker 1: him what's what. 548 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:45,440 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, I mean everyone's look a great basketball player 549 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 3: until you see a pro. I'll just say that. So 550 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:50,359 Speaker 3: it was a fun debate. And I'm sure if I 551 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 3: ask anybody else in the locker room, they'll tell me, oh, 552 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 3: how am I not in that top five? 553 00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:55,680 Speaker 2: And Moe did say I feel like we're a little 554 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 2: too big. He was a little nervous. Yeah, not enough 555 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 2: guards to be fair. Yes, again he thinks Daniel Jones 556 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 2: will point forward there. 557 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:06,120 Speaker 5: Did you guys see the Celtics played a coaches versus 558 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:07,680 Speaker 5: media basketball game? 559 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:09,160 Speaker 3: I did see this. Why don't we do a. 560 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,680 Speaker 5: Colts players versus colts media basketball game? 561 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 3: We get James Boy, we get Kevin Bowen. Colts players. Yeah, 562 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:20,640 Speaker 3: I like brother. Just to be clear, you're. 563 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 1: Proposing professional athletes going up against media. 564 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 3: Man, Celtics did it. 565 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 2: I mean Celtics did their coaches, yeah, pro some older pros, 566 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:31,680 Speaker 2: and they did. 567 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 1: Absolutely. 568 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:35,159 Speaker 2: Joe Missoula, from the sounds of it, wanted blood and 569 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:37,360 Speaker 2: this game is hilarious. 570 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: He's he's just going there with charges man Rick Carlos. 571 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 3: When he joins us, there you go, coming. 572 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 1: Up down a very good former player himself. 573 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 3: Oh absolutely, I mean he won a championship. So I 574 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:54,640 Speaker 3: will say this though, Calebs and Dustin. You ever see 575 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 3: football players play basketball, they look like football players who 576 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:00,359 Speaker 3: play basketball. Yeah, I'm not taking a chal I'm not 577 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:01,400 Speaker 3: about to get hid in my chest. 578 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:02,160 Speaker 2: Uh huh. 579 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:05,920 Speaker 1: I'm predicting now that if there was Pacers coaching staff 580 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,639 Speaker 1: against media, Jenny Boussik is probably the leading scorer. 581 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 3: I mean, hey, ex again, former pro away from her 582 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:15,400 Speaker 3: General Pargo still on staff. 583 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 6: He is. 584 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 3: Oh, he'd give me forty thic mathering these guys one 585 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:25,879 Speaker 3: on one, you know, after practice. So uh yeah, I'm 586 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:27,480 Speaker 3: not checking any of those guys. 587 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 1: Uh for those keeping pace though, tomorrow night, we've got 588 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 1: basketball everywhere, Notre Dame at Butler, tomorrow night Hinkle Fieldhouse, 589 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,920 Speaker 1: and then the Pacers at San Antonio. It's about to 590 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 1: be full on basketball. He's not quite there yet, but 591 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 1: we're getting close. It is college football season, though, and 592 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:47,679 Speaker 1: Indiana coming off the huge road win against Oregon. And 593 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 1: I was talking to an Indiana alum yesterday, good friend 594 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 1: of mine, Jeff Martin Della works at ESPN in their 595 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 1: affiliate relations department, and he grew up in Indiana. He 596 00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:01,119 Speaker 1: went to Indiana. He said, literally, he was nearly in 597 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:03,880 Speaker 1: tears at the end of that football game on Saturday. 598 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 1: It's how much it means to folks who've been following 599 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 1: this program and have watched it for decades now, and 600 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 1: they go in, as you said, Kevin a twenty seven 601 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:17,640 Speaker 1: and a half point favorite against Michigan State on Saturday 602 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:21,080 Speaker 1: down in Bloomington. And I was fascinated that Kurt Signetti 603 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 1: spent some time with Joel Klatt from Fox Sports. Joel 604 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 1: does a podcast and he had Kurt Signetti on this 605 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 1: past week. And you know, Kurt kind of took a 606 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 1: bunch of players from his old school when he came 607 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 1: to Indiana, but he also took a bunch of the 608 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 1: coaching staff too. He kept as much intact as he could, 609 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:39,880 Speaker 1: and that's kind of how you start to build and 610 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 1: bring your culture over. I'll let him describe it himself. 611 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,639 Speaker 7: I've been very fortunate to have great consistency on my 612 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 7: coaching staff. You know, my offensive coordinator and defensive coordinator. 613 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 7: I hired a part time coaches at the D two 614 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:56,320 Speaker 7: level for about eight thousand bucks, and those guys have 615 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 7: been with me, you know, eleven twelve years, and that 616 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 7: would be Brian Hayes, Mike Shanahan and Grant came my 617 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:05,159 Speaker 7: special teams coordinators with me about six seven years. And 618 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:07,440 Speaker 7: you know, we're in the top five in the country 619 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:10,639 Speaker 7: lately at the end of the year, you know, in teams, 620 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 7: and we've been really really good this season. But a 621 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,919 Speaker 7: number of other people in the organization been with me 622 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 7: a long time, so they know how we do things. 623 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 7: They know how I am. The expectation level. I try 624 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 7: to keep those guys fresh, you know. I mean, when 625 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 7: we're in here, we're efficient, we're organized, we're working, we 626 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:31,359 Speaker 7: don't waste time. And when we're done, I tell them 627 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,359 Speaker 7: go home. And I'm the same way with the team 628 00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 7: and meetings and on a practice field, I mean, we're 629 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 7: we're a really short practice operation. I mean we'll have 630 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 7: about a thirty five minute walkthrough on Mondays and on 631 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:45,879 Speaker 7: Fridays we'll have about a twenty five minute walkthrough, and 632 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 7: Tuesday through Thursday. I mean we're on that field about 633 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 7: our thirty five hour, forty minutes and off because I 634 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:56,199 Speaker 7: just believe in keeping people fresh and healthy, and the 635 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 7: better people feel physically, the better they're going to be 636 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:02,200 Speaker 7: mentally too. So there's a lot that goes into it, 637 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 7: but it's it's done with people. And you know, we 638 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 7: have great people. 639 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 1: And how about the fact that I love this, James, 640 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 1: that you have something that you know works, You trust 641 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 1: these guys you've always had, always had success with them. 642 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 1: Then you bring a number of players over as well, 643 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 1: and while you're literally transplanting your culture through the people 644 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 1: and the and the personalities that make it go and 645 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:28,919 Speaker 1: make it what it is. And now you set that 646 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 1: example for everybody else at Indiana, and there is this 647 00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 1: expectation that, no, this is how it is from this 648 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 1: coaching staff to all the players we brought over, this 649 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 1: is how you do things. Is working for. 650 00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 3: Him absolutely, and I think when we talk about car 651 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 3: Signetti and the rebuild that he's had and how remarkable 652 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:50,920 Speaker 3: it is, it just doesn't seem feasible realistically for anybody 653 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 3: else to do it. I mean, you know, you if 654 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 3: you are a program that's kind of down and out, 655 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 3: you're thinking, Okay, we just got to find the right 656 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 3: guy and he'll fix everything. Man, this is like something 657 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 3: out of a movie. This doesn't happen, you know, every 658 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 3: day or hardly ever. I mean, we'll talk to some 659 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 3: people later today, one of my colleagues, Ralph Russeau, who's 660 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:11,280 Speaker 3: been around college football forever, here in a few minutes 661 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 3: and he'll give some more context to what we're actually seeing. 662 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:17,120 Speaker 3: But yeah, it is inspiring to kind of see what 663 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 3: he's done, what he's built, and certainly the standard that 664 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,920 Speaker 3: he has established at this point is what they're going 665 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,080 Speaker 3: to be held to going forward. So I guess that's 666 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:28,440 Speaker 3: like the good pressure, good challenge that you're embracing now 667 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:30,160 Speaker 3: that you've you know, won some big games. 668 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 2: I think staff red tension is a really underrated element 669 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:38,479 Speaker 2: to sustaining success collegiately andrio Brian Haynes, for example, their 670 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 2: defensive coordinator. He was highly sought after last offseason by 671 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 2: blue bloods. And you know when you talk about, hey, 672 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 2: you know, where's Indiana at from a financial sense in 673 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 2: college football, and you know, are they willing to pay 674 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 2: top dollars by all accounts that they did up the 675 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 2: ANNIE for that assistant coaching pool. And I do think 676 00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 2: that is a huge deal because if you look at 677 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 2: just look at some of final four teams from last year. 678 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 2: Notre Dame loses their defensive coordinator to the NFL. You know, 679 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:08,959 Speaker 2: Penn State lost Tom Allen. Remember that Tom Allen went 680 00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:12,720 Speaker 2: to Clemson. Ohio State won the national title. Their defensive 681 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 2: coordinator left and went through Penn State of all places. 682 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:18,320 Speaker 2: So you know you're talking about you know, three of 683 00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:22,000 Speaker 2: the top four teams last year, you know, losing key coordinators. 684 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 2: And for Indiana to have the year that they did, 685 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 2: I get that Tino Sensei, their co offensive coordinator, left 686 00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 2: for UCLA that didn't go great for him, you know, 687 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 2: for him to retain you know, two of their guys 688 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:35,240 Speaker 2: after the year they had that I think is pretty rare, 689 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 2: especially in college sports. So you know, even Perdue basketball, 690 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 2: you look at it, Matt Painters had great staff retention 691 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:41,840 Speaker 2: over the years. 692 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 3: I do think it's a really under the radar aspect 693 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 3: to it. 694 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 1: Well, they're doing it right at Indiana at this point 695 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 1: in time, they've risen all the way up to number three. 696 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 1: And there. I was listening to a bunch of the 697 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 1: college football programs and podcast yesterday. Almost all of them 698 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:01,240 Speaker 1: are like, Hey, Indiana is legit threat to win the 699 00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 1: whole thing. Everybody talks about Ohio State, and you know 700 00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 1: you're gonna have your your Georgia's and your Alabama's and 701 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:09,320 Speaker 1: some of the SEC teams. But they really believe, looking 702 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 1: up and down the roster, looking at the coaching staff loot, 703 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:13,400 Speaker 1: the way they play, the way they do things, the 704 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 1: way they dominated on the line of scrimmage against Oregon, 705 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:19,800 Speaker 1: that they are legit to go deep into the College 706 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:20,680 Speaker 1: Football Playoff. 707 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 2: Speaking of the College Football Playoff, we probably shouldn't mention 708 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 2: that I think we've done it yet, James. The one 709 00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 2: news item that Shane Stykein did reveal yesterday, it'll be 710 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 2: Riley Leonard one play away coming up on Sunday, not 711 00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 2: Brett Rippin. So Riley Leonard will be quarterback number two. 712 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:39,320 Speaker 2: I think Shane did say for Sunday, Yeah, just for 713 00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 2: now to anything past that. The ripping thing a little 714 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 2: odd he didn't. I guess he had some travel issues. 715 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 2: He didn't get to Indy until after Wednesday's practice, so 716 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 2: he technically did not practice with the team yesterday. 717 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,120 Speaker 3: Were you surprised that it is Riley? 718 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 2: Do you think the ripping not being able to get 719 00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 2: to town quick enough had something to do with that? 720 00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 3: Or you don't care? I think I do care, because, again, 721 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:05,240 Speaker 3: the backup quarterback is important. If Daniel Jones goes down, 722 00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:08,200 Speaker 3: that guy's in there and he is suddenly thrust into 723 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 3: a position of leading the number one seed in the AFC. 724 00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 3: So yeah, I definitely care. But I expected Riley to 725 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:18,720 Speaker 3: be QB two regardless of who they signed, mainly because 726 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 3: of just the timeline of things that have happened. You know, 727 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:26,600 Speaker 3: if he wasn't with the team on Monday, he just 728 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 3: got there yesterday. Got to get acclimated, you know. And 729 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:32,640 Speaker 3: I think even if you have been like bur Rippin 730 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,719 Speaker 3: has in a ton of different offenses throughout the years, 731 00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:37,959 Speaker 3: you still want to give him a little bit more 732 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 3: time in a couple of days to say, hey, Okay, 733 00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:41,760 Speaker 3: you're going to be the guy we rely on if 734 00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 3: this guy goes down. I think you trust Ry Leonard 735 00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:46,720 Speaker 3: what he's done in the classroom from studying and being 736 00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:49,560 Speaker 3: ready to go, and then you get through the weekend 737 00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 3: and then you figure it out from there, like, Okay, 738 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 3: how do we assess it now that we have everyone 739 00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 3: where they're supposed to be, like physically in the same area, city, state, 740 00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:00,720 Speaker 3: and then we go from there. So yeah, I'm excited 741 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:03,520 Speaker 3: for Ryan Leonard. He's sounded excited about the opportunity, but 742 00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 3: he also said he only hopes to get in if 743 00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 3: it's a blowout, Like I don't want to go in. 744 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 3: You know, if I'm going in, that means Daniel Jones 745 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 3: is had an injury, and that's obviously what nobody wants. 746 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 3: So yeah, I did tell him though, if you get 747 00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 3: in and it's a blowout, you got to ask Shane 748 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 3: and give you a go ball. I'm not with all that. 749 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 3: I'm not with all that. Get in there, and it's like, 750 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:26,280 Speaker 3: you know, when I go to these high school games 751 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:28,600 Speaker 3: and like get the teams are getting bown out. They 752 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:30,520 Speaker 3: put their bench in and they tell the guys, hey, 753 00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:33,200 Speaker 3: just run our offense. No, coach, I'm not going to 754 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 3: the league. My parents probably not going to see me 755 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 3: play varsity basketball very often. I'm giving shot. No, no, we're. 756 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:41,960 Speaker 2: Not running talk to that cheerleader over there. 757 00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:45,200 Speaker 3: I'm not exactly Yeah, I'm trying. You know, I gotta 758 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:47,200 Speaker 3: get some highlights, even if I missed a shot. Yeah, 759 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:48,760 Speaker 3: at any of these days. Can cut that, You can 760 00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:50,800 Speaker 3: cut the miss out and go talk to huddle. 761 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 1: Highlights. 762 00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:53,320 Speaker 2: Don't love themselves there. You know you're gonna have to 763 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 2: have some yourself. One thing to note quarterback wise, you know, hey, 764 00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 2: who should the cult sign is back up. We have 765 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:00,960 Speaker 2: this debate a little bit in the media because Brett 766 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 2: Rippens's resume is rather non a script. 767 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 3: There's really not a lot on there. 768 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:09,080 Speaker 2: He does have four career starts, but really he's only 769 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:12,320 Speaker 2: been a true backup. I's a maybe one year in 770 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 2: Denver for Russell Wilson. A lot of people have been asked, hey, 771 00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:18,200 Speaker 2: why not Taylor Heineke. You know that if you look 772 00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:21,200 Speaker 2: at the list of backups, or I should say the 773 00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:25,600 Speaker 2: list of free agent quarterbacks, Heinike probably has the most 774 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:30,239 Speaker 2: decorated resume of anybody on that list. This is me 775 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:33,360 Speaker 2: assuming things. If I'm Taylor Heineke, and I know this 776 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:37,680 Speaker 2: might sound a little crazy, but Taylor Heineke could probably 777 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:40,520 Speaker 2: be a little greedy if he would like, And by 778 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:42,320 Speaker 2: that I mean this, We have seen the Joe Burrow 779 00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:46,440 Speaker 2: injury already this season. We're probably due for one more 780 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,440 Speaker 2: quarterback to have a Joe Burrow injury prominent quarterback. 781 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:49,880 Speaker 1: That is. 782 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,120 Speaker 2: So, if I'm Taylor Heineke and I'm sitting on my couch, 783 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 2: I'm thinking it's week seven, it's October sixteenth. I could 784 00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:00,319 Speaker 2: probably wait another month and let's see if in hurt 785 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 2: your playoff team loses their starting quarterback for X amount 786 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:10,319 Speaker 2: of time. Could I then become Nick Foles in Philadelphia 787 00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:13,279 Speaker 2: Joe Flacco and Cleveland from a few years ago. Could 788 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:16,719 Speaker 2: I walk into more of a playoff situation and be 789 00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 2: the starter here in Indie, Daniel Jones hasn't missed a 790 00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:23,719 Speaker 2: meaningful snap all year. If you sign here, then you're 791 00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:26,919 Speaker 2: probably landlocked here for the rest of the season. So again, 792 00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:30,239 Speaker 2: that's me assuming things with Heinike. Uh, but you know, 793 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:32,000 Speaker 2: I think some people are kind of like, wait, really, 794 00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:37,440 Speaker 2: just Brett Rippin well, well, good point, in desperate desperate mode, 795 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 2: and Heinike isn't yet, I would think in desperate desperate mode. 796 00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:43,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I say your point. The trade deadline, I think 797 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:45,839 Speaker 3: is also a factor that could help him in a sense. 798 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 3: Where if you get past the trade deadline, like you said, 799 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 3: if you wait a month, then November fourth the deadline, Yeah, exactly, 800 00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:55,279 Speaker 3: and then the Joe Flacco acquisition for the Bengals isn't 801 00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:57,719 Speaker 3: an option anymore. You can't trade for anybody, So you're 802 00:35:57,719 --> 00:36:01,200 Speaker 3: telling somebody to eat a backup. Yep, high at your boy. 803 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 1: I think you're both onto something there too. I think 804 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,160 Speaker 1: on the other side of that too, if you're just 805 00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:07,880 Speaker 1: looking for a backup right now, Tyler, you know, Taylor 806 00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 1: Honkey is probably gonna cost a little bit more than 807 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 1: a guy like Brett Rippon at this point in time. 808 00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 1: So from the Teams perspective, not only you're saving money 809 00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:17,799 Speaker 1: for somebody you hope doesn't even have to play, but 810 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:20,279 Speaker 1: I think you're one hundred percent right Kevin on the 811 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:23,920 Speaker 1: Henekey perspective, wait for a better opportunity to come along. 812 00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:26,440 Speaker 1: And the trade deadline also falls into all that. So 813 00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 1: I think it's kind of a swirl of all those 814 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:30,319 Speaker 1: things where it wasn't really gonna work out. 815 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 3: How much do you think you would really cost? Though, 816 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:34,320 Speaker 3: I'm like, you know, I'm looking at Taylor Honekey, like 817 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:35,200 Speaker 3: how much you asking for. 818 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:36,879 Speaker 1: You're gonna cost a lot more than Brett Rippon. 819 00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:40,040 Speaker 3: I would think, yeah, but it's also pro rated too, 820 00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:43,440 Speaker 3: so it's like you ain't played, so you can't come 821 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:46,239 Speaker 3: with too many demands here. I don't want to act 822 00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:47,720 Speaker 3: like the backup quarterbacks gonna breakwa. 823 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:49,440 Speaker 1: I think the majority of it is Kevin is right, though, 824 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:50,839 Speaker 1: is where it most of it comes from. 825 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:51,840 Speaker 3: I think Kevin's always. 826 00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:54,279 Speaker 2: Right to note for Sunday and I again, it's not 827 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:56,640 Speaker 2: it's something I kind of look at each week just 828 00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:59,319 Speaker 2: to see if there is any past history here. Justin 829 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 2: Herbert has face Lean Rumo twice and the charge of 830 00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:04,920 Speaker 2: it have had a ton of success in those games. 831 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:08,160 Speaker 2: Thirty four points scored offensively in both of those games. Now, 832 00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:12,160 Speaker 2: again it's Cincinnati, it's different personnel, but you know Herbert 833 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:15,520 Speaker 2: has seen lou Enrumo's defenses. Last year they scored thirty four. 834 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:19,879 Speaker 2: Herbert actually wasn't greatly efficient in that game, but they 835 00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:21,960 Speaker 2: still were able to put up a lot of points. 836 00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:25,719 Speaker 2: So certainly there are some questions with the health of 837 00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:29,239 Speaker 2: the offensive tackles in LA. That is a massive win 838 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:31,359 Speaker 2: for the Colts. They have to take advantage of that 839 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:34,640 Speaker 2: because depth at wide out versus lack of depth at 840 00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 2: cornerback I think is a vantage Chargers in this matchup here, 841 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 2: so five year pass rush to show up. 842 00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 1: They certainly need that, and they have not yet addressed 843 00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:45,759 Speaker 1: adding anybody. And I don't know that they're going to 844 00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:47,200 Speaker 1: unless you know. 845 00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:49,880 Speaker 2: It's a shame you even have to mention that, like 846 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:53,920 Speaker 2: you say, it's a they haven't added anybody. Let's think 847 00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:58,120 Speaker 2: about this defensive line room. You have three first round picks, 848 00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:02,880 Speaker 2: two second round pick I believe, two third round picks, 849 00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:06,239 Speaker 2: and a fourth and a fifth. So in the nine 850 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:09,399 Speaker 2: defensive linemen you've drafted, all of them have been drafted 851 00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:11,600 Speaker 2: in the top five rounds and three first round picks 852 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:13,719 Speaker 2: a third of the room, and then added in the 853 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:15,520 Speaker 2: second round picks over half the room or first and 854 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:18,840 Speaker 2: second round picks. You shouldn't need to go out there 855 00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:22,920 Speaker 2: and think about adding anyone's. It's probably the most highly 856 00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:25,360 Speaker 2: invested defensive line room in the entire NFL. 857 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:28,520 Speaker 3: And yet and again. 858 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:31,400 Speaker 2: Your thought, Jeff, is not wrong. I understand why you 859 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:36,800 Speaker 2: bring up, hey, should they add here? But like they shouldn't, 860 00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 2: this group should be getting it done and Sunday, Sunday 861 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:42,719 Speaker 2: should be a banner day. You talk about adding highlights. 862 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:46,719 Speaker 2: These guys should be having. These guys should be just ravaging. 863 00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:50,439 Speaker 2: Justin Herbert on Sunday with the health of the Chargers. 864 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:52,440 Speaker 1: Tackles, how many sucks do the Colts have so far 865 00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:53,359 Speaker 1: this year as a team? 866 00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:56,000 Speaker 3: Do you know the number wise pressure rate? 867 00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:58,960 Speaker 2: I think has been kind of like right around twenty 868 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 2: ish in the in the twenties. And I feel like this, 869 00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:05,359 Speaker 2: And I was talking with Rick Van Terry a little 870 00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:08,160 Speaker 2: bit after the game the other day, I feel like 871 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:10,840 Speaker 2: when I see sacks for the Colts, they're like stunting 872 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:14,640 Speaker 2: sacks or maybe even a little bit coverage induced. Like 873 00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 2: I don't feel like they have a lot of just 874 00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:24,160 Speaker 2: our guy whips your guy sacks. And again Sunday, you 875 00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 2: gotta have that because the Chargers. The Chargers injury report 876 00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:30,439 Speaker 2: wasn't great yesterday either. They maybe will get Khalil Mack 877 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:32,919 Speaker 2: back he's missed about a month, but offensive tackle wise, 878 00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 2: I think they're still gonna be down their top three guys. 879 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:37,279 Speaker 1: I only bring that up because I'm looking at the 880 00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:40,520 Speaker 1: at stats and I like, see right now real quickly 881 00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:43,960 Speaker 1: are the individual stats and there are two Broncos that 882 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,040 Speaker 1: have between the two of them twelve and a half sacks. 883 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:47,759 Speaker 1: I don't think the Colts have twelve and a half 884 00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:48,959 Speaker 1: sacks as a team, dude, They. 885 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:50,879 Speaker 3: Mean the Broncos one. We have sixteen as a team. 886 00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:54,920 Speaker 1: The Bronx sixteen ten sacks against the I apologize, Yeah, 887 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:59,080 Speaker 1: they had a bunch. Nick Benino has eight already. But 888 00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:01,920 Speaker 1: my point is is we haven't seen a ton of pressure. 889 00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:03,799 Speaker 1: Gotten a little bit better, but we haven't seen a 890 00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:05,839 Speaker 1: ton of pressure on quarterbacks so far this year. 891 00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:08,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, the Broncos are leading the league with thirty sacks. 892 00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:13,200 Speaker 3: The Costs actually are seventh in the NFL with sixteen sacks. 893 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:14,239 Speaker 3: Why does that surprise me? 894 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:15,360 Speaker 1: It just doesn't feel. 895 00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:18,040 Speaker 2: Like that when you look closer to some of these sacks, 896 00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:21,240 Speaker 2: Like it's impact plays. It's like the final drive against 897 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:24,600 Speaker 2: the Raiders when it's forty to six, you know, that's 898 00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 2: like the critical third down. I mean, think of those 899 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:31,000 Speaker 2: long downs and distances that the Cardinals converted on Sunday. 900 00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:33,479 Speaker 2: Those are the moments where you're pinning your ears back 901 00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:37,319 Speaker 2: and you can't get home there. So again, just a huge, 902 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:40,600 Speaker 2: huge factor when it comes to, you know, trying to 903 00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:43,000 Speaker 2: limit the chargers on Sunday based. 904 00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:45,480 Speaker 1: On what I'm looking at right now, ranked number thirty 905 00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:48,439 Speaker 1: in the league, Taekwon Lewis has three sacks. Quity Pay 906 00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:54,680 Speaker 1: also has three sacks. That's what I've got for individual 907 00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:56,720 Speaker 1: guys right now. So there's six between those two. 908 00:40:56,520 --> 00:41:00,680 Speaker 3: Guys, and I'll get again Latuo's as still one for 909 00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:03,400 Speaker 3: his first six games of the year. That's just not 910 00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:06,000 Speaker 3: enough for a guy who was drafted as the first 911 00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:08,000 Speaker 3: defensive player taken a couple of years ago. 912 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:13,560 Speaker 1: And yet they're five and one. So there is that Yeah. 913 00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:18,480 Speaker 3: You're actually getting into a store I'll have going up tomorrow. 914 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:22,799 Speaker 3: Is this sustainable on defense? Because they're like fourth in 915 00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:25,680 Speaker 3: scoring defense this year, so they're not giving up a 916 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 3: ton of points every game. But when you look at 917 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:30,920 Speaker 3: their third down conversion rate, they're thirtieth in the league. 918 00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:34,840 Speaker 3: That is not just from last week. I got a 919 00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:37,359 Speaker 3: chance to ask Saya Franklin about that, and he kind 920 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:41,239 Speaker 3: of alluded to some of the success that the Cardinals 921 00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:43,279 Speaker 3: had and maybe how that could ascu the numbers. But 922 00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:46,200 Speaker 3: I mean, at what point do we look at a 923 00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:48,600 Speaker 3: sample size and say this is who you are. You're 924 00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:50,400 Speaker 3: a third of the way through the season at this point. 925 00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:52,680 Speaker 3: This isn't like We're talking about two or three games here. 926 00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:56,240 Speaker 3: So are you a bad third down conversion team on defense? 927 00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:58,560 Speaker 3: And if that is the case, is it sustainable for 928 00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:01,840 Speaker 3: you to keep winning in this man? The takeaways certainly 929 00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:04,120 Speaker 3: helped you. Can't you know, apologize for that. I think 930 00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:07,520 Speaker 3: if if any other stat determines winning and losing an NFL, 931 00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:09,120 Speaker 3: it's can you get takeaways and can you give us 932 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:11,799 Speaker 3: short fields? And so they've done that, but it's still 933 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:15,920 Speaker 3: as concerning that they haven't been at least moderately better 934 00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:17,600 Speaker 3: when it comes to third down. And I think a 935 00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:19,359 Speaker 3: lot of it has to do with the fact that, 936 00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:21,080 Speaker 3: you know, if you target the middle of the field 937 00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:23,440 Speaker 3: for the cults right now, it's money all right. 938 00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:25,360 Speaker 1: Coming up in a moment, we turn our attention to 939 00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:29,279 Speaker 1: college football Indiana rank number three Notre Dame with a 940 00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:33,279 Speaker 1: big game against USC and the senior college sports rider 941 00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 1: for the athletic Ralph Russo stops by next on the 942 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:37,440 Speaker 1: Fan morning show ninety three to five and one on 943 00:42:37,520 --> 00:42:40,600 Speaker 1: seven to five to the Fan. We've been talking about 944 00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:43,400 Speaker 1: it all morning long, college football right smack in the 945 00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 1: middle of everything, and games that are played between now 946 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:47,640 Speaker 1: and the end of the year, like all of them 947 00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:50,440 Speaker 1: determine who goes to the college football playoff, and we 948 00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:53,319 Speaker 1: might have two again from the state of Indiana. This 949 00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:55,640 Speaker 1: show up in the college football playoffs just like last year, 950 00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:58,120 Speaker 1: Indiana and Notre Dame. So it's worth talking about. And 951 00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:01,959 Speaker 1: of course number three ranking right now for Indiana Notre Dame. 952 00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:04,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if they get that win over US 953 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:08,120 Speaker 1: see a twentieth rank team, do they based on teams 954 00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:10,719 Speaker 1: in front of them? Obviously? Are they flirting with top 955 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:11,800 Speaker 1: ten pretty quickly here? 956 00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:14,759 Speaker 2: I don't know necessarily about that. I know this, they 957 00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:17,040 Speaker 2: lose their seasons over they win. 958 00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:18,799 Speaker 1: You're the most negative guy, I know. 959 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:21,400 Speaker 3: No, that is a fact. It is a fact. 960 00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:23,279 Speaker 1: But you always go to the losing for Notre Dame. 961 00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:26,200 Speaker 2: First, Well, they're just gonna win out come on, Well, 962 00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:28,520 Speaker 2: they have business to take care of after that, you know, 963 00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:30,239 Speaker 2: Notre Dame is no margin for air. 964 00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:31,920 Speaker 3: So they lose, they're done. 965 00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:32,640 Speaker 1: They win. 966 00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:34,799 Speaker 2: I think they continue to be in a position to 967 00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:37,239 Speaker 2: be in the playoff if they do run at the table. 968 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:38,759 Speaker 1: I'm just giving you a bad time. I know know 969 00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:41,600 Speaker 1: how it goes. Ralph Russo knows a lot about college 970 00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:43,600 Speaker 1: football more than we do. Probably that's why we're having 971 00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:45,560 Speaker 1: them on the show now ninety three five and one 972 00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 1: on seven five to the fan on the pay Less 973 00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:50,160 Speaker 1: Liquors Hotline.

I know there's no margin for air, 984 00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:19,719 Speaker 1: but make the case for him why this team is 985 00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:21,160 Speaker 1: gonna run the table and be fine. 986 00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:24,400 Speaker 8: Oh, I mean they have one of the best offenses 987 00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 8: in the country. 988 00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:26,359 Speaker 1: I think there. 989 00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:30,400 Speaker 9: I think if they beat USC it looks really good 990 00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:32,920 Speaker 9: for them to do just that. I mean, if you 991 00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:37,239 Speaker 9: do the way they've just demolished everybody since A and 992 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:41,040 Speaker 9: M and Miami, and the fact that you play what 993 00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:42,440 Speaker 9: essentially are toss. 994 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:44,520 Speaker 6: Up games against A and M and Miami, who. 995 00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:46,840 Speaker 8: Right now are two of the top five to six 996 00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:49,719 Speaker 8: teams in the I mean, depending on your perspective. To me, 997 00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:51,080 Speaker 8: they're two of the top five. 998 00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:51,720 Speaker 6: Teams in the country. 999 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:54,440 Speaker 8: Maybe they're two of the top six, you know, depending 1000 00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:56,520 Speaker 8: on again, depending on where you have them in your 1001 00:44:56,880 --> 00:45:01,120 Speaker 8: your personal rankings. Yeah, I I think there's a damn 1002 00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:02,319 Speaker 8: good chance that they run the table. 1003 00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:02,440 Speaker 10: Here. 1004 00:45:02,480 --> 00:45:03,800 Speaker 6: I would also say this. 1005 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:08,359 Speaker 8: There's a pretty good chance we're gonna have a nine 1006 00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:11,040 Speaker 8: and three playoff team. I'm not saying it's going to 1007 00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:13,920 Speaker 8: be Notre Dame, but like if you just sort of 1008 00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:17,480 Speaker 8: look at the projections that come to the projection systems, 1009 00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:20,600 Speaker 8: I don't know if there's gonna be enough ten win 1010 00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:24,440 Speaker 8: teams to fill this field. So I'm just preparing everyone 1011 00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:28,560 Speaker 8: because it's gonna feel a little shocking that a nine 1012 00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:31,719 Speaker 8: and three team, probably from the SEC because they have 1013 00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:35,520 Speaker 8: the hardest schedules, very well might end up in this playoff. 1014 00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:40,560 Speaker 3: Ralph, you have covered college football for how many years? 1015 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:44,640 Speaker 8: I'm very old, so yes, it's been a very long time, 1016 00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:47,120 Speaker 8: probably you know, twenty thirty years. 1017 00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:49,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a long long time. 1018 00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:51,080 Speaker 2: And we're very appreciative of your time here at eight 1019 00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:53,920 Speaker 2: am on this Thursday morning, have you ever received a 1020 00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:56,719 Speaker 2: text in your life that said, hey, man, could you 1021 00:45:56,800 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 2: come on our radio show to talk about Indiana University's football. 1022 00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:00,560 Speaker 4: Yeah? 1023 00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:05,600 Speaker 8: Well, yes, this is a new world we are living in, 1024 00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:08,000 Speaker 8: as I got to see up close when I went 1025 00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:13,320 Speaker 8: to Eugene on Saturday, and yeah, I'm watching the Hoosiers, 1026 00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:19,480 Speaker 8: you know, pretty convincingly not just beat Oregon, because you know, 1027 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:22,640 Speaker 8: there was a time, a long time ago when Indiana 1028 00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:25,840 Speaker 8: went to Oregon and won with about eighty eight yards 1029 00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:29,040 Speaker 8: of total offense because they got five turnovers from Oregon's 1030 00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:32,799 Speaker 8: team back in the early two thousands. So but to 1031 00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:35,719 Speaker 8: see them go there to in a top you know 1032 00:46:35,840 --> 00:46:40,440 Speaker 8: ten matchup and truly handle one of the most talented 1033 00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:44,920 Speaker 8: rosters in the country was you know, a little stunning. 1034 00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:47,920 Speaker 8: And what was also stunning afterwards is to sort of 1035 00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:52,279 Speaker 8: see it, to sort of be around the signetti experience, right, 1036 00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:56,280 Speaker 8: the signetti of it all. This sixty four year old Yinzer, 1037 00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:58,160 Speaker 8: who has become just a. 1038 00:46:58,239 --> 00:46:59,160 Speaker 3: Rock star. 1039 00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:02,520 Speaker 4: In college coaching, you know. 1040 00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:05,959 Speaker 8: To beat the thirty eight year old Dan Lanning who's 1041 00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:08,080 Speaker 8: sort of the up and coming and everybody kind of 1042 00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:11,200 Speaker 8: thinks of him as the hot guy. And now again this. 1043 00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:14,120 Speaker 9: Sixty four year old dude whose career. 1044 00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:17,600 Speaker 8: Has gone from like Alabama to Elon is now the 1045 00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:21,239 Speaker 8: star in college football with his you know sort of 1046 00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:26,239 Speaker 8: smirk for a smile is remarkable. It was remarkable. You know, 1047 00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:29,760 Speaker 8: the what that field, what that scene was like after 1048 00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:33,320 Speaker 8: the game as well, just you know, Indiana fans refusing 1049 00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:37,080 Speaker 8: to leave Austin until he left the field too. 1050 00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:41,920 Speaker 3: Ralph Russol joining us here on the Palo Circus hot line, 1051 00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:45,319 Speaker 3: my colleague at the Athletic Ralph, you're talking to James boy. 1052 00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:47,239 Speaker 3: Thanks for getting back to me with my text. He 1053 00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:49,440 Speaker 3: texted back immediately and told me he had, Hey, I 1054 00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:51,200 Speaker 3: can't do winsay can do Thursday. I got a story 1055 00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:52,520 Speaker 3: I got to write, and I was like, you know what, 1056 00:47:52,880 --> 00:47:56,719 Speaker 3: I've been in that same world, my friend. You know, 1057 00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:58,680 Speaker 3: hopefully got the story done and I'm sure I'll check 1058 00:47:58,680 --> 00:48:01,200 Speaker 3: it out. But you know, like you said, you alluded 1059 00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:04,839 Speaker 3: to what I you showed and just looking ahead at 1060 00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:07,400 Speaker 3: their schedule, you know, we talked about Notre Dame possibly 1061 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:10,120 Speaker 3: running the table in the year and it feels like 1062 00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:12,839 Speaker 3: the big test for I you have kind of come 1063 00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:15,800 Speaker 3: and gone. But as look at the rest of their slate, 1064 00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:18,439 Speaker 3: that UCLA game in a couple of weeks. I'm like, man, 1065 00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:20,759 Speaker 3: is that one I should be nervous about? So are 1066 00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:23,680 Speaker 3: there a couple opponents because cossleball is weird where you're 1067 00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 3: looking like that's a game that you needs to make 1068 00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:28,520 Speaker 3: sure they don't you know, stink up or something like that. 1069 00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:32,759 Speaker 8: Yeah, I would say I'm still interested to see what 1070 00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:35,880 Speaker 8: Penn State has left in the tank. The fact that 1071 00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:38,080 Speaker 8: and you have to go to Happy Valley. The fact 1072 00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:44,040 Speaker 8: of the matter is like there's still talent on that team. 1073 00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:43,320 Speaker 11: You know. 1074 00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:46,480 Speaker 8: In fact, that literally was the story I was working on. 1075 00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:49,879 Speaker 8: Is sort of an autopsy on what went wrong there 1076 00:48:49,960 --> 00:48:52,480 Speaker 8: over the last three weeks. And hopefully yeah, we'll be 1077 00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:55,319 Speaker 8: published in a couple hours. It was up a little 1078 00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:58,400 Speaker 8: late last night in fact, getting the face so hopefully, 1079 00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:02,359 Speaker 8: so hopefully we got that across the finish line, you know, 1080 00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:06,640 Speaker 8: so that one again just going to Happy Valley the 1081 00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:10,920 Speaker 8: interim coach. There is a Penn State lifer, Terry Smith I, 1082 00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:14,560 Speaker 8: who is sort of the guy who he is very 1083 00:49:14,640 --> 00:49:15,879 Speaker 8: much the point person on. 1084 00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:17,160 Speaker 6: A lot of the recruiting stuff. 1085 00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:19,560 Speaker 8: He was one of the original guys that Franklin brought 1086 00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:22,880 Speaker 8: in there because he's so he's such a good recruiter, 1087 00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:25,800 Speaker 8: such a good coach, and such a like a Penn stater. 1088 00:49:27,280 --> 00:49:31,160 Speaker 8: So I would wonder what that team looks like after 1089 00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:34,960 Speaker 8: it sort of shakes off whatever was going on there 1090 00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:39,439 Speaker 8: after they lost the Oregon that threw them into such 1091 00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:43,640 Speaker 8: a bad funk. That's the most talented team probably left 1092 00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:46,360 Speaker 8: on i U's schedule. I'm trying to think of, like 1093 00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:48,839 Speaker 8: who else might be there. I don't have it pulled 1094 00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:51,800 Speaker 8: up in front of me. You're right, Ucla is tricky. 1095 00:49:52,280 --> 00:49:56,120 Speaker 8: They have found they have unlocked and Eco and made 1096 00:49:56,160 --> 00:50:00,719 Speaker 8: them their offense a lot tougher to guard card now 1097 00:50:01,280 --> 00:50:04,120 Speaker 8: now that Jerry Neuheidels is calling the place. But the 1098 00:50:04,200 --> 00:50:08,120 Speaker 8: thing is again and as you guys noted, Indiana probably 1099 00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:10,880 Speaker 8: has at least one, if not two losses to play 1100 00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:14,640 Speaker 8: with here. So even if something weird pops up and 1101 00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:17,200 Speaker 8: you get sniped by a team in the middle of 1102 00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:20,400 Speaker 8: the pack in the Big Ten, you still have some 1103 00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:24,160 Speaker 8: leeway here, especially with that win at Oregon in the bank. 1104 00:50:24,600 --> 00:50:27,120 Speaker 2: That's the voice of Ralph Russo again covers college football 1105 00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:30,919 Speaker 2: for the Athletic and indeed was that SYU Oregon over 1106 00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:34,000 Speaker 2: the weekend in the year twenty twenty five. I think 1107 00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:36,759 Speaker 2: the question probably sounds a little different than maybe it 1108 00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:40,120 Speaker 2: would have five ten years ago. Ralph, is the Indiana 1109 00:50:40,239 --> 00:50:43,560 Speaker 2: job like somewhat comparable to the Penn State job? 1110 00:50:43,680 --> 00:50:46,120 Speaker 1: Or is that still a ludicrous thought? 1111 00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:48,560 Speaker 8: I know, you know, I think it's a I think 1112 00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:53,799 Speaker 8: it is a fair to ask question because essentially, if 1113 00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:56,200 Speaker 8: your school is now this has always been the case 1114 00:50:56,239 --> 00:50:59,120 Speaker 8: to a certain degree, but I think it's it's probably 1115 00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:02,080 Speaker 8: framed a little bit differently now if your school is 1116 00:51:02,120 --> 00:51:06,840 Speaker 8: willing to invest with players being paid now, you know, 1117 00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:11,560 Speaker 8: the big stadium and and and IU has good stuff, right, 1118 00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:15,040 Speaker 8: they've invested in more than just the football coach. But 1119 00:51:15,120 --> 00:51:18,919 Speaker 8: I think some of the brand value that has been 1120 00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:23,200 Speaker 8: that has always been, you know, the major factor in 1121 00:51:23,719 --> 00:51:25,920 Speaker 8: brand value in tradition, which has always been a major 1122 00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:31,440 Speaker 8: factor in recruiting, that gets chipped away when it's just 1123 00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:34,200 Speaker 8: about hey man, how much can you pay me? 1124 00:51:35,040 --> 00:51:35,160 Speaker 6: Right? 1125 00:51:35,200 --> 00:51:38,200 Speaker 8: Because that's why you know, that's that's that's one of 1126 00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:41,040 Speaker 8: the things that levels the playing field in pro sports, right, 1127 00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:44,239 Speaker 8: only so many people can only one person can be 1128 00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:45,440 Speaker 8: the highest paid player. 1129 00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:45,800 Speaker 4: On every team. 1130 00:51:46,520 --> 00:51:50,080 Speaker 8: So at some point that's going to you know, disperse 1131 00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:53,720 Speaker 8: the talent around a little more evenly, I do think, 1132 00:51:54,040 --> 00:51:57,680 Speaker 8: and I'll still align from my colleague on our podcast, 1133 00:51:57,680 --> 00:52:02,520 Speaker 8: The Audible Stuart Mandel with one hundred seat stadiums, and 1134 00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:05,400 Speaker 8: I talked to coaches about this. There still is some 1135 00:52:05,680 --> 00:52:08,680 Speaker 8: brand value out there. There are kids who will take 1136 00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:13,040 Speaker 8: one hundred thousand less because you know what, Georgia. I 1137 00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:15,200 Speaker 8: can go there and I can play for championships and 1138 00:52:15,239 --> 00:52:17,680 Speaker 8: they got nice things, and that's sort of like that's 1139 00:52:17,719 --> 00:52:19,000 Speaker 8: that's just sort of the factory. 1140 00:52:19,120 --> 00:52:19,279 Speaker 4: Right. 1141 00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:22,799 Speaker 8: So I do think the Ohio States, the Georgia's to 1142 00:52:22,840 --> 00:52:26,120 Speaker 8: a certain degree, the Penn States Michigan's have a little 1143 00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:30,839 Speaker 8: brand value head start on some of the rest. But man, again, 1144 00:52:30,880 --> 00:52:33,440 Speaker 8: the playing field definitely seems to be leveled. And if 1145 00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:36,719 Speaker 8: IU is truly invested in being a football school, and 1146 00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:40,799 Speaker 8: all by all indications they are, yeah, it changes the 1147 00:52:40,840 --> 00:52:44,680 Speaker 8: conversation on whether, if you know, to just get straight 1148 00:52:44,719 --> 00:52:47,360 Speaker 8: to the point, whether do you stay at IU or 1149 00:52:47,400 --> 00:52:48,600 Speaker 8: do you go to a Penn State? 1150 00:52:48,719 --> 00:52:50,359 Speaker 4: Do you stay at IU or do you. 1151 00:52:50,360 --> 00:52:53,279 Speaker 8: Go to a Florida Right that that is a very 1152 00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:55,560 Speaker 8: different question now than it was a few years ago. 1153 00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:58,400 Speaker 3: Ralph, the last one from me, and again thanks for 1154 00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:00,720 Speaker 3: your time. And it's not really a question a statement. 1155 00:53:01,160 --> 00:53:04,439 Speaker 3: I heard you say early in this call that college 1156 00:53:04,480 --> 00:53:07,640 Speaker 3: football fans are passionate about the rankings. Just put IU 1157 00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:09,160 Speaker 3: at number one and you'll be the you know, a 1158 00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:10,600 Speaker 3: big man on campus around here. 1159 00:53:11,640 --> 00:53:16,000 Speaker 8: The problem is, and I can't believe, like this is 1160 00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:18,479 Speaker 8: a great way actually to the sort of another really 1161 00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:20,880 Speaker 8: great way to describe like where we are in the 1162 00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:27,160 Speaker 8: college football universe with Indiana. So I ranked Indiana number 1163 00:53:27,239 --> 00:53:31,480 Speaker 8: five this week, and you would have thought I like 1164 00:53:31,920 --> 00:53:36,839 Speaker 8: killed a puppy when it comes for IU fans like 1165 00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:41,440 Speaker 8: and startlingly, that is the lowest they were ranked among 1166 00:53:41,520 --> 00:53:46,440 Speaker 8: any voters, which I saw and was completely shocked, completely shocked. 1167 00:53:46,719 --> 00:53:50,359 Speaker 8: So the idea that someone could have Indiana as the 1168 00:53:50,400 --> 00:53:54,120 Speaker 8: fifth best team in the country and Indiana fans would 1169 00:53:54,200 --> 00:54:00,200 Speaker 8: get furious at me is I can't like, like ro 1170 00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:01,600 Speaker 8: world are we living in? 1171 00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:05,480 Speaker 3: See you?

Man, I don't know these people 1174 00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:11,759 Speaker 3: wanted to cut you off the air right there. 1175 00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:14,799 Speaker 2: Who did you have about are you?

Now it's another 1178 00:54:19,640 --> 00:54:20,160 Speaker 8: wave of it. 1179 00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:26,120 Speaker 2: So I had Ralph on Twitter by the way. 1180 00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:30,000 Speaker 8: Well yeah it's again, like it's gonna come again. I 1181 00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:33,120 Speaker 8: got Ohio state number one, Miami number two A, and 1182 00:54:33,239 --> 00:54:35,000 Speaker 8: m number three. And this is the one that set 1183 00:54:35,040 --> 00:54:39,040 Speaker 8: everybody off. I have Alabama number four and Indiana number five. 1184 00:54:39,080 --> 00:54:42,000 Speaker 8: But again, we live in a world where if I 1185 00:54:42,160 --> 00:54:46,520 Speaker 8: rank Alabama above Indiana, people think I'm an idiot. That 1186 00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:49,480 Speaker 8: like just it's like where are we like, what are 1187 00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:52,759 Speaker 8: we even doing here? It's just and that speaks to 1188 00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:55,480 Speaker 8: the amazing job that Signetti has done and what a 1189 00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:57,920 Speaker 8: great story Indiana is. I mean, they just they have 1190 00:54:58,040 --> 00:55:01,319 Speaker 8: been awesome and you could have made a very legitimate 1191 00:55:01,360 --> 00:55:03,920 Speaker 8: case to rank them as high as number one. I 1192 00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:05,560 Speaker 8: think that they were, you know, sort of in that 1193 00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:08,080 Speaker 8: three group of who is going to be three through 1194 00:55:08,080 --> 00:55:11,040 Speaker 8: five for me, and it was real close and I 1195 00:55:11,160 --> 00:55:15,520 Speaker 8: landed there and again, send all your complaints to Ralph 1196 00:55:15,560 --> 00:55:17,440 Speaker 8: d Russo on X. 1197 00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:20,279 Speaker 3: What a stand up guy. We appreciate you, Ralph and 1198 00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:22,560 Speaker 3: we will catch up with you next time, my friend, 1199 00:55:22,560 --> 00:55:24,520 Speaker 3: thanks so much joining us this morning on the show. 1200 00:55:25,239 --> 00:55:27,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, guys, anytime there you go. 1201 00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:30,800 Speaker 1: I love that. Though we do now live in a 1202 00:55:30,880 --> 00:55:34,840 Speaker 1: world where a national sports writer who covers college football 1203 00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:39,000 Speaker 1: for a living rakes Indiana fifth. People are upset. Think 1204 00:55:39,040 --> 00:55:41,640 Speaker 1: about that for a minute. That's fantastic if you're a 1205 00:55:41,640 --> 00:55:42,239 Speaker 1: Hosier fan. 1206 00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:44,320 Speaker 3: I love it. I mean, and again, at least he 1207 00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:46,480 Speaker 3: was able to kind of stand there and state his 1208 00:55:46,600 --> 00:55:49,440 Speaker 3: case and we can all shake our heads. But it 1209 00:55:49,560 --> 00:55:51,719 Speaker 3: is cool to get a respective from someone who's, like 1210 00:55:51,719 --> 00:55:54,960 Speaker 3: he said, done this for twenty thirty years and that turnaround. 1211 00:55:55,040 --> 00:55:59,080 Speaker 3: He's never seen anything like that. So exciting times for IU. 1212 00:55:59,280 --> 00:56:01,560 Speaker 3: And who knows, we look up in a couple of 1213 00:56:01,600 --> 00:56:04,279 Speaker 3: weeks and talking about you know, playoff seating and things 1214 00:56:04,320 --> 00:56:04,600 Speaker 3: like that. 1215 00:56:04,760 --> 00:56:07,239 Speaker 1: Kevin, something tells me Ralph Russo is used to having 1216 00:56:07,239 --> 00:56:10,040 Speaker 1: a certain fan base every week, regardless of who it is, 1217 00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:12,440 Speaker 1: really angry with it that they're crazy. 1218 00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:16,160 Speaker 2: Nothing like college football, nothing like the SEC. So yes, 1219 00:56:16,320 --> 00:56:17,920 Speaker 2: I would agree wholeheartedly with that. 1220 00:56:18,160 --> 00:56:19,239 Speaker 3: And yeah, I mean I. 1221 00:56:20,719 --> 00:56:23,320 Speaker 2: Right now, Indiana's in a position for the bye frankly, 1222 00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:25,560 Speaker 2: which would be no home playoff game. I know we 1223 00:56:25,600 --> 00:56:27,120 Speaker 2: got in this debate, maybe we don't need to go 1224 00:56:27,120 --> 00:56:28,680 Speaker 2: down this path again, but you know, would you rather 1225 00:56:28,719 --> 00:56:30,440 Speaker 2: have the home game. If you do get the home 1226 00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:34,440 Speaker 2: game slotted five, six, seven, eight in the seating, that 1227 00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:37,560 Speaker 2: would be December nineteenth or twentieth. And there's part of 1228 00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:42,320 Speaker 2: me that just it's hard to fathom seeing the Georgia 1229 00:56:42,400 --> 00:56:47,480 Speaker 2: Bulldogs on the visiting sideline as snow is falling in Bloomington, 1230 00:56:47,560 --> 00:56:54,200 Speaker 2: Indiana on December twentieth. Like what, first off, any SEC 1231 00:56:54,239 --> 00:56:58,160 Speaker 2: team coming to play at Indiana is lol? And now 1232 00:56:58,239 --> 00:57:03,720 Speaker 2: imagining like all those just warming machines on the visiting 1233 00:57:03,800 --> 00:57:06,080 Speaker 2: sideline and like all of a sudden, all these Georgia 1234 00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:08,600 Speaker 2: you know they're used to between the hedges and you know, 1235 00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:10,479 Speaker 2: a coat at a game. 1236 00:57:10,640 --> 00:57:14,239 Speaker 3: What, No, it's you know, not even fat, that is true. 1237 00:57:14,239 --> 00:57:16,520 Speaker 3: I hadn't thought about it. And now here is the SEC. 1238 00:57:16,760 --> 00:57:19,680 Speaker 2: You know, Tennessee came to Ohio State last year and 1239 00:57:19,840 --> 00:57:21,360 Speaker 2: you know we didn't get as much as that as 1240 00:57:21,360 --> 00:57:23,120 Speaker 2: I would have liked. Obviously, we got Indiana at Notre 1241 00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:26,720 Speaker 2: Dame that was very regionalized, but that would be awesome 1242 00:57:27,320 --> 00:57:30,080 Speaker 2: to get that. And again Indiana right now, they're not 1243 00:57:30,120 --> 00:57:32,320 Speaker 2: even in that position there. I know Ralph has them five. 1244 00:57:32,520 --> 00:57:34,840 Speaker 2: I think most people would have them as a top 1245 00:57:34,840 --> 00:57:37,160 Speaker 2: four team right now, they're one of the bye teams, 1246 00:57:37,680 --> 00:57:40,280 Speaker 2: which means you immediately go to the quarterfinal, you immediately 1247 00:57:40,320 --> 00:57:41,160 Speaker 2: go to the neutral site. 1248 00:57:42,480 --> 00:57:44,240 Speaker 1: Well, it's gonna be fun to watch it all play 1249 00:57:44,280 --> 00:57:46,440 Speaker 1: out over the next six weeks or so and just 1250 00:57:46,440 --> 00:57:51,640 Speaker 1: to see what heights can be attained. And again, it's 1251 00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:54,240 Speaker 1: gonna be meaningful football for folks that are fans of 1252 00:57:54,320 --> 00:57:57,320 Speaker 1: college football here in Indiana for the second year in 1253 00:57:57,320 --> 00:58:00,360 Speaker 1: a row. I mean, think about this, about two years 1254 00:58:00,360 --> 00:58:03,360 Speaker 1: in a row having Indiana and Notre Dame both in 1255 00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:04,560 Speaker 1: a college football playoff. 1256 00:58:05,960 --> 00:58:07,840 Speaker 2: Well, premature on the team in South Bend, but yeah, 1257 00:58:07,840 --> 00:58:10,120 Speaker 2: the team in Bloomington and a great, great spot. 1258 00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:14,720 Speaker 3: You just I can't cannot be a baseball fan or 1259 00:58:14,760 --> 00:58:18,480 Speaker 3: like a true college football fans. Let's not act like 1260 00:58:18,520 --> 00:58:21,919 Speaker 3: they got You're right to be nervous. I'm just saying, man, 1261 00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:24,040 Speaker 3: to live like that. I feel for so. 1262 00:58:24,080 --> 00:58:25,600 Speaker 2: Said the nine and three team's going to get in. 1263 00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:27,080 Speaker 2: That team ain't going to be Notre Dame. 1264 00:58:27,200 --> 00:58:28,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what it is, Kevin. Whenever you talk 1265 00:58:28,680 --> 00:58:30,240 Speaker 3: about Notre Dame, I just think if we grow hairy 1266 00:58:30,240 --> 00:58:32,640 Speaker 3: Indy and I'm like, man, I'm glad my boy got 1267 00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:34,040 Speaker 3: the hair back because he's dose hairs are going to 1268 00:58:34,080 --> 00:58:35,680 Speaker 3: turn a gray worrying about this team. 1269 00:58:35,920 --> 00:58:42,880 Speaker 1: Look, they already have, brother, it's great on you, they. 1270 00:58:42,800 --> 00:58:43,360 Speaker 3: Are they have. 1271 00:58:43,920 --> 00:58:45,880 Speaker 2: Let's talk in present tent here, let's not talk in 1272 00:58:45,880 --> 00:58:46,439 Speaker 2: future times. 1273 00:58:46,600 --> 00:58:51,080 Speaker 1: It works. The Commissi Texan at two nineteen seventy on 1274 00:58:51,120 --> 00:58:52,880 Speaker 1: the fan text line and says, if I you los 1275 00:58:52,960 --> 00:58:55,600 Speaker 1: this to Ohio State in the Big Ten championship game, 1276 00:58:55,640 --> 00:58:56,920 Speaker 1: do they still get a bye? 1277 00:58:57,040 --> 00:58:57,280 Speaker 4: Yeah? 1278 00:58:57,360 --> 00:59:00,280 Speaker 3: That's weird how they've done the championship games? Like do 1279 00:59:00,360 --> 00:59:01,280 Speaker 3: they matter? Do they not? 1280 00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:04,560 Speaker 1: They don't seem to matter as much as they should. 1281 00:59:04,840 --> 00:59:07,320 Speaker 2: Like, why shouldn't he to be punished for making a 1282 00:59:07,320 --> 00:59:09,640 Speaker 2: Big Ten title game whereas the third place Big Ten 1283 00:59:09,680 --> 00:59:11,520 Speaker 2: team doesn't? And I'd have to look back to last 1284 00:59:11,600 --> 00:59:14,360 Speaker 2: year's games? Who do we have in the Big Ten title? 1285 00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:14,840 Speaker 2: Was it Oregon? 1286 00:59:14,920 --> 00:59:15,400 Speaker 1: Penn State? 1287 00:59:16,640 --> 00:59:19,800 Speaker 3: And Penn State ended up hosting? Was it SMU in 1288 00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:22,000 Speaker 3: that first game? Yeah? 1289 00:59:22,200 --> 00:59:24,040 Speaker 2: So I mean, I guess I don't know. Did Penn 1290 00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:25,960 Speaker 2: State get punched? I would have to look back to 1291 00:59:26,040 --> 00:59:27,160 Speaker 2: rankings and all of that. 1292 00:59:27,400 --> 00:59:32,760 Speaker 3: So I feel coming about this from people who get 1293 00:59:32,760 --> 00:59:34,440 Speaker 3: paid a lot of money to argue about these things. 1294 00:59:34,720 --> 00:59:36,400 Speaker 3: Another reason why I love college football is did you 1295 00:59:36,400 --> 00:59:38,680 Speaker 3: can never agree on anything when it comes to past stuff. 1296 00:59:38,960 --> 00:59:41,240 Speaker 2: Speaking of Ohio State, speaking of a possible Big Ten 1297 00:59:41,600 --> 00:59:44,200 Speaker 2: title game, James, we should mention the Josh Downs injury 1298 00:59:44,200 --> 00:59:47,040 Speaker 2: from yesterday his brother, of course, Caleb Downs at Ohio. 1299 00:59:46,680 --> 00:59:49,080 Speaker 3: State, but I can cushion protocol for him. 1300 00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:54,280 Speaker 2: So very iffy for Sunday for him and Trevarious Ward, 1301 00:59:54,480 --> 00:59:57,400 Speaker 2: both of those guys up in the air for week seven. 1302 00:59:57,680 --> 01:00:00,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, not ideal. On a more positive note, Oh, you 1303 01:00:00,360 --> 01:00:02,640 Speaker 3: did get Kenny Moore the second back at practice for 1304 01:00:02,680 --> 01:00:05,240 Speaker 3: the first time in three weeks. He was limited due 1305 01:00:05,240 --> 01:00:08,720 Speaker 3: to his achilles but he's I think trying to angle 1306 01:00:08,840 --> 01:00:11,480 Speaker 3: to play against the charges. I saw him on Instagram 1307 01:00:11,520 --> 01:00:13,800 Speaker 3: posting a picture of himself pretty late last night in 1308 01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:16,480 Speaker 3: his practice uniform, with him standing and looking off at 1309 01:00:16,480 --> 01:00:19,120 Speaker 3: the distance as if he's like trying to say I'm back. 1310 01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:21,160 Speaker 3: So we'll see what that means in a couple of days. 1311 01:00:21,240 --> 01:00:25,120 Speaker 1: I love all the cryptic posts that athletes have these days. 1312 01:00:25,160 --> 01:00:27,480 Speaker 1: Nobody ever just comes out and says anything. It's always 1313 01:00:27,880 --> 01:00:30,240 Speaker 1: a picture that you have to interpret or a line 1314 01:00:30,280 --> 01:00:32,800 Speaker 1: that could be taking three or four different ways. 1315 01:00:33,120 --> 01:00:35,520 Speaker 3: I will say may Cox followed me back on Instagram 1316 01:00:35,560 --> 01:00:37,280 Speaker 3: the other day, and I have no idea why. I 1317 01:00:37,320 --> 01:00:39,120 Speaker 3: was thinking my life is not that interesting at all, 1318 01:00:39,160 --> 01:00:42,280 Speaker 3: but shout out to him for I guess appeasing. 1319 01:00:42,400 --> 01:00:44,160 Speaker 1: He wants you to He wants you to organize a 1320 01:00:44,200 --> 01:00:46,760 Speaker 1: college bask or a Colts basketball game. 1321 01:00:46,840 --> 01:00:48,880 Speaker 3: Maybe maybe I think that's. 1322 01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:50,800 Speaker 1: What that probably is. All right, Caleb, do you think 1323 01:00:50,800 --> 01:00:53,760 Speaker 1: it's time to check it down?

I 1326 01:00:57,840 --> 01:00:59,840 Speaker 1: think there's gonna be some maintenance going on right. 1327 01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:02,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, with our streaming right now, probably in about a minute, 1328 01:01:02,640 --> 01:01:05,440 Speaker 5: so the YouTube chat might have some difficulty. 1329 01:01:05,480 --> 01:01:07,240 Speaker 1: All right, Nothing we can do about that. That's just 1330 01:01:07,280 --> 01:01:10,440 Speaker 1: somehow programmed in way above our heads. I don't know 1331 01:01:10,440 --> 01:01:13,880 Speaker 1: what that's about. But here's your checkdown right now. You 1332 01:01:13,920 --> 01:01:16,200 Speaker 1: guys were talking about injuries just a moment ago. Colts 1333 01:01:16,200 --> 01:01:18,600 Speaker 1: need everybody on deck to take on the Chargers on 1334 01:01:18,640 --> 01:01:21,960 Speaker 1: the road Sunday afternoon, four h five out in Los Angeles. 1335 01:01:22,240 --> 01:01:24,560 Speaker 1: You talked about the Josh Downs concussion, the Kenny Moore 1336 01:01:24,680 --> 01:01:27,760 Speaker 1: second and Mooney Ward, anybody else we need to keep 1337 01:01:27,760 --> 01:01:29,800 Speaker 1: an eye on or worry about heading into this week. 1338 01:01:30,080 --> 01:01:32,640 Speaker 3: Ashton Doolan did not practice he has today with the 1339 01:01:32,720 --> 01:01:36,600 Speaker 3: chest injury. He was out there watching practice. But considering 1340 01:01:36,680 --> 01:01:40,080 Speaker 3: the injury to Josh Downs, you're thinking, hey, Ashton Doolan 1341 01:01:40,120 --> 01:01:42,320 Speaker 3: also can't go. What does that mean for Ady Mitchell? 1342 01:01:42,320 --> 01:01:43,560 Speaker 3: In the rest of you Wide Receiver. 1343 01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:47,080 Speaker 1: Room also been talking about it today. Kevin Riley Leonard 1344 01:01:47,320 --> 01:01:50,480 Speaker 1: installed as the backup for at least this week, even 1345 01:01:50,520 --> 01:01:52,760 Speaker 1: though they signed Mark Rippen, or not Mark Rippon, but 1346 01:01:53,040 --> 01:01:54,680 Speaker 1: Brett Rippon yesterday. 1347 01:01:55,040 --> 01:01:57,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, Brett Rippon didn't make it to Indy until after 1348 01:01:57,520 --> 01:02:00,240 Speaker 2: yesterday's practice, so I don't know if that factor in 1349 01:02:00,280 --> 01:02:03,680 Speaker 2: with it at all, just fully getting him up to speed. 1350 01:02:03,760 --> 01:02:06,840 Speaker 2: So yes, for week seven, not necessarily for the entire 1351 01:02:06,880 --> 01:02:10,000 Speaker 2: Anthony and Richardson's day on injured reserve, but yes, for 1352 01:02:10,080 --> 01:02:12,919 Speaker 2: Sunday in LA it'll be Riley Leonard one play away. 1353 01:02:12,960 --> 01:02:15,080 Speaker 2: I assume they'll bring Brett Ripping up from the practice 1354 01:02:15,080 --> 01:02:17,840 Speaker 2: squad later this week and he would be two plays 1355 01:02:17,840 --> 01:02:19,120 Speaker 2: away as the emergency quarterback. 1356 01:02:19,120 --> 01:02:21,680 Speaker 1: All right, Cults start at four or five Sunday afternoon 1357 01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:23,600 Speaker 1: in Los Angeles. You can hear it live right here 1358 01:02:23,600 --> 01:02:25,160 Speaker 1: on ninety three five one oh seven to five of 1359 01:02:25,160 --> 01:02:28,000 Speaker 1: the Fan. Our pregame coverage begins on the network at 1360 01:02:28,120 --> 01:02:32,000 Speaker 1: one p m. We have Matt Taylor and Casey Valier 1361 01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:35,640 Speaker 1: and JMV and all the other cast members. Rick Venturia, 1362 01:02:35,640 --> 01:02:39,560 Speaker 1: you'll listen to it all afternoon right here on the fan. Meanwhile, 1363 01:02:39,600 --> 01:02:42,080 Speaker 1: we've got college football for you coming up on Saturday, 1364 01:02:42,120 --> 01:02:44,520 Speaker 1: when I you the number three team in the nation 1365 01:02:44,960 --> 01:02:48,640 Speaker 1: host Michigan State Kevin. They are twenty seven and a 1366 01:02:48,720 --> 01:02:50,640 Speaker 1: half point favorites right now. 1367 01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:53,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess Michigan State's in a state of massive dysfunction. 1368 01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:56,240 Speaker 2: A lot of questions about Jonathan Smith, their head coach, 1369 01:02:56,320 --> 01:03:00,320 Speaker 2: and whether he will still be their head coach. Aiden 1370 01:03:00,440 --> 01:03:03,480 Speaker 2: Schowser quarterback, and that has been banged up here recently. 1371 01:03:03,680 --> 01:03:05,800 Speaker 2: So yeah, I was all surprised to see the line 1372 01:03:05,840 --> 01:03:09,040 Speaker 2: be four touchdowns, but I guess there are a lot 1373 01:03:09,080 --> 01:03:12,160 Speaker 2: of reasons for that. So last year, remember Michigan State 1374 01:03:12,200 --> 01:03:14,760 Speaker 2: took that ten dozing lead and he's lancing and then 1375 01:03:14,840 --> 01:03:17,280 Speaker 2: Kurtzignet's bunch said, oh yeah, we should probably show up 1376 01:03:17,280 --> 01:03:19,680 Speaker 2: and rattled off whatever it was forty something in a row, 1377 01:03:19,800 --> 01:03:24,000 Speaker 2: so should be a nice homecoming cakewalk for the Hoosiers. 1378 01:03:24,080 --> 01:03:26,440 Speaker 1: One thing we've learned about a Kurtz Signette team at Indiana, 1379 01:03:26,440 --> 01:03:28,200 Speaker 1: whether it was the ten to nothing deficit last year 1380 01:03:28,240 --> 01:03:30,800 Speaker 1: at Michigan State or the pick six and all of 1381 01:03:30,840 --> 01:03:32,520 Speaker 1: a sudden you got a football game at Oregon this 1382 01:03:32,560 --> 01:03:34,800 Speaker 1: past week. They don't get rattled. They just go right 1383 01:03:34,800 --> 01:03:36,600 Speaker 1: back to business whenever they get the football back and 1384 01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:36,960 Speaker 1: get going. 1385 01:03:37,040 --> 01:03:37,200 Speaker 4: Man. 1386 01:03:37,440 --> 01:03:38,880 Speaker 3: Great resolve, great resolve. 1387 01:03:38,920 --> 01:03:40,880 Speaker 2: We have seen here and again the two guys that 1388 01:03:40,920 --> 01:03:44,040 Speaker 2: to me define who Indiana is all about. Elijah Srodd offensively, 1389 01:03:44,080 --> 01:03:47,120 Speaker 2: Aiden Fisher defensively. Those dudes are easy to follow. 1390 01:03:47,440 --> 01:03:49,000 Speaker 1: All right to other games we'll keep an eye on 1391 01:03:49,040 --> 01:03:52,480 Speaker 1: this weekend Purdue at Northwestern three pm kickoff and Northwestern 1392 01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:55,280 Speaker 1: is a three point favorite there and later on that night, 1393 01:03:55,440 --> 01:03:58,320 Speaker 1: usc the number twenty team in the country, visits South 1394 01:03:58,360 --> 01:04:00,840 Speaker 1: Bend to take on number thirteen. Noted that one starts 1395 01:04:00,840 --> 01:04:03,440 Speaker 1: at seven point thirty Kevin. Notre Dame is a nine 1396 01:04:03,480 --> 01:04:04,840 Speaker 1: and a half point favorite in that game. 1397 01:04:04,880 --> 01:04:07,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, Nerdame did loser starting center Ashton Craig for the 1398 01:04:07,480 --> 01:04:10,200 Speaker 2: year last week. That's a little bit of a concern 1399 01:04:10,360 --> 01:04:13,600 Speaker 2: for me here and big picture, what's the future of 1400 01:04:13,600 --> 01:04:16,200 Speaker 2: this rivalry, I don't know if everybody kind of fully 1401 01:04:16,240 --> 01:04:19,160 Speaker 2: understands where that's at right now, but some definite disagreements 1402 01:04:19,600 --> 01:04:23,160 Speaker 2: about what Notre Dame USC will be moving forwards. So 1403 01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:25,400 Speaker 2: I know that rivalry's meant a lot to a lot 1404 01:04:25,440 --> 01:04:28,840 Speaker 2: of sports fans. So I hope selfishly it continues. And 1405 01:04:29,080 --> 01:04:31,000 Speaker 2: USC has had a nice year so far. Lost to 1406 01:04:31,040 --> 01:04:34,000 Speaker 2: James Boyd squad on the last second field goal. They 1407 01:04:34,160 --> 01:04:37,160 Speaker 2: pounded Michigan last week. I think USC is kind of 1408 01:04:37,160 --> 01:04:39,000 Speaker 2: a sneaky team in the Big ten. 1409 01:04:39,160 --> 01:04:39,320 Speaker 4: Hi. 1410 01:04:39,400 --> 01:04:41,560 Speaker 1: We'll keep an eye on that as far as pro 1411 01:04:41,800 --> 01:04:45,160 Speaker 1: sports are concerned. NFL Week seven kicks off tonight, Steelers 1412 01:04:45,200 --> 01:04:49,080 Speaker 1: at Bengals on Amazon. Major League Baseball last night to Toronto, 1413 01:04:49,160 --> 01:04:53,240 Speaker 1: Blue Jays scored thirteen times to beat the Seattle Mariners 1414 01:04:53,600 --> 01:04:57,080 Speaker 1: thirteen to four, four for four for Vlad Guerrero, had 1415 01:04:57,120 --> 01:05:00,000 Speaker 1: a home run, scored four times, got on base five 1416 01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:03,200 Speaker 1: five times. Everything working well for the offense in Toronto, 1417 01:05:03,240 --> 01:05:06,280 Speaker 1: and Kevin had pointed this out earlier. James the road 1418 01:05:06,320 --> 01:05:08,640 Speaker 1: team has won every game in both the American League 1419 01:05:08,640 --> 01:05:10,480 Speaker 1: and National League Championship Series so far. 1420 01:05:11,080 --> 01:05:14,040 Speaker 3: Baseball makes no sense. It just stresses me. That's only 1421 01:05:14,080 --> 01:05:15,520 Speaker 3: that makes sense about it is distress. 1422 01:05:16,120 --> 01:05:18,919 Speaker 1: Later on tonight, the Brewers take on the Dodgers in 1423 01:05:19,120 --> 01:05:22,160 Speaker 1: Game three of that series.

You know what, 1638 01:14:54,160 --> 01:14:55,840 Speaker 2: two teams right in the top five I think in 1639 01:14:55,840 --> 01:14:57,880 Speaker 2: the preseason poll, I think goes ukon of Saint John's 1640 01:14:57,880 --> 01:15:00,800 Speaker 2: back to back if I'm not mistaken in that poll there. 1641 01:15:00,840 --> 01:15:01,799 Speaker 3: So big year for Butler. 1642 01:15:02,080 --> 01:15:05,160 Speaker 2: Need to get back in the tournament and we'll see 1643 01:15:05,200 --> 01:15:07,840 Speaker 2: how a roster that I think has got a lot 1644 01:15:07,920 --> 01:15:11,040 Speaker 2: more length, lot more depth to it and in recent 1645 01:15:11,120 --> 01:15:14,360 Speaker 2: years should be better to hold up defensively than they 1646 01:15:14,360 --> 01:15:15,200 Speaker 2: have in years past. 1647 01:15:15,280 --> 01:15:16,599 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they played in the n I T 1648 01:15:16,600 --> 01:15:19,080 Speaker 1: two years ago and then the brand new Tournament last year, 1649 01:15:19,840 --> 01:15:22,439 Speaker 1: the brand new college basketball tournament they had last year. 1650 01:15:22,600 --> 01:15:25,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a net of those postseason tournaments.

Yeah, 1700 01:17:59,120 --> 01:18:02,000 Speaker 1: it's uh. I've been to. I've done games and been 1701 01:18:02,040 --> 01:18:05,160 Speaker 1: on campus for both places. Pacific Palisades is just like 1702 01:18:05,160 --> 01:18:08,760 Speaker 1: a little little paradise in the middle of Los Angeles 1703 01:18:08,760 --> 01:18:11,559 Speaker 1: out there. And of course USC is kind of on 1704 01:18:11,600 --> 01:18:15,320 Speaker 1: the fringe of downtown there, and it's a great campus. 1705 01:18:15,360 --> 01:18:17,680 Speaker 1: It's right there next to Memorial Coliseum too, it's right 1706 01:18:17,720 --> 01:18:18,479 Speaker 1: there on campus. 1707 01:18:18,520 --> 01:18:21,559 Speaker 3: Well, just so great.

I'll I'll bring them back. You one 1710 01:18:24,800 --> 01:18:26,719 Speaker 3: piece opera. You guys gonna have any overlap? 1711 01:18:26,880 --> 01:18:28,960 Speaker 2: Me two out there? James, Do you fly out on Saturday? 1712 01:18:29,360 --> 01:18:29,759 Speaker 3: Saturday? 1713 01:18:29,800 --> 01:18:31,960 Speaker 1: We might see you at the airport as we're leaving. 1714 01:18:32,439 --> 01:18:35,400 Speaker 3: No, No, as you are leaving grand Hey, come high 1715 01:18:35,439 --> 01:18:36,960 Speaker 3: Land your boy, and we won't have a great time. 1716 01:18:37,320 --> 01:18:38,160 Speaker 1: James were there. 1717 01:18:39,160 --> 01:18:41,719 Speaker 2: I don't think the Chargers fall into the Rams boat 1718 01:18:42,280 --> 01:18:44,080 Speaker 2: when you were out there for Rams Colts. Was it 1719 01:18:44,240 --> 01:18:46,920 Speaker 2: still kind of a home atmosphere like Rams fans or 1720 01:18:47,000 --> 01:18:48,560 Speaker 2: did you feel like there were some good amount of 1721 01:18:48,560 --> 01:18:49,120 Speaker 2: Colts fans there. 1722 01:18:49,160 --> 01:18:50,479 Speaker 3: I feel it was a good amount of Colts fans. 1723 01:18:50,479 --> 01:18:55,679 Speaker 3: We're probably still leaning towards the majority being the Rams fans. 1724 01:18:55,720 --> 01:18:58,920 Speaker 3: It's just weird the way there stadium is kind of 1725 01:18:58,920 --> 01:19:02,519 Speaker 3: set up because I haven't experience many crowds like that 1726 01:19:02,560 --> 01:19:04,559 Speaker 3: where you don't really show up until the game is 1727 01:19:05,280 --> 01:19:08,639 Speaker 3: already underwhelming. It might be even more fifty to fifty 1728 01:19:08,760 --> 01:19:11,880 Speaker 3: ish with you. Yeah, I believe that the Rams are 1729 01:19:11,920 --> 01:19:14,200 Speaker 3: still like the team that's above the Chargers out in 1730 01:19:14,360 --> 01:19:17,200 Speaker 3: LA when it comes to fandom. So yeah, it's a 1731 01:19:17,320 --> 01:19:20,000 Speaker 3: unique setting but awesome, you know venue, Like if you 1732 01:19:20,040 --> 01:19:22,240 Speaker 3: are traveling. I know a lot of Colts fans told me, Hey, 1733 01:19:22,479 --> 01:19:24,120 Speaker 3: we saw the LA games on the schedule. We want 1734 01:19:24,160 --> 01:19:25,800 Speaker 3: to get out there and get some warm weather and 1735 01:19:25,960 --> 01:19:28,200 Speaker 3: catch a game. It is a good place to be 1736 01:19:28,200 --> 01:19:30,760 Speaker 3: because they that huge jumbo tron they have basically makes 1737 01:19:30,800 --> 01:19:32,759 Speaker 3: it so you don't have a bad view in the house. 1738 01:19:33,160 --> 01:19:35,320 Speaker 3: But yeah, for the Colts purposes, they're just like, we 1739 01:19:35,320 --> 01:19:36,519 Speaker 3: don't care where it is we got to go get 1740 01:19:36,520 --> 01:19:36,760 Speaker 3: a win. 1741 01:19:36,920 --> 01:19:39,479 Speaker 2: Maybe nine o'clock hour we can play. I thought Jim 1742 01:19:39,520 --> 01:19:44,040 Speaker 2: Harball had some really pointed words about Jim Mersey and 1743 01:19:44,120 --> 01:19:46,479 Speaker 2: felt the need on his own to kind of just 1744 01:19:46,560 --> 01:19:48,519 Speaker 2: bring up his relationship with Jim. 1745 01:19:48,760 --> 01:19:50,800 Speaker 3: A little emotional there, definitely. 1746 01:19:51,000 --> 01:19:52,760 Speaker 2: So yeah, Jim Harball was just he was asked kind 1747 01:19:52,760 --> 01:19:55,120 Speaker 2: of a basic question about the Colts, and you hear 1748 01:19:55,160 --> 01:19:57,639 Speaker 2: referend Shane Stikeen's time with the Charger. Shane Stikeen spent 1749 01:19:57,720 --> 01:20:00,920 Speaker 2: nine years with the Chargers. No overlap Harball, of course, 1750 01:20:00,960 --> 01:20:05,360 Speaker 2: but and then you know, kind of typical hardball fashion, 1751 01:20:05,920 --> 01:20:09,000 Speaker 2: he can tend to wander a little bit. But yeah, 1752 01:20:09,080 --> 01:20:11,479 Speaker 2: I thought he shared, yes, some emotional words about Jim Mercy. 1753 01:20:11,560 --> 01:20:13,479 Speaker 2: Maybe we'll play that here coming up in the nine 1754 01:20:13,520 --> 01:20:14,040 Speaker 2: o'clock hour. 1755 01:20:14,160 --> 01:20:16,080 Speaker 1: Looking forward to seeing that. Do we have some winners 1756 01:20:16,120 --> 01:20:18,600 Speaker 1: of tickets to the Butler Notre Dame game tomorrow night? 1757 01:20:18,680 --> 01:20:19,479 Speaker 3: Caleb, We have. 1758 01:20:19,400 --> 01:20:23,040 Speaker 5: One right on a response from another, but Greg Eken 1759 01:20:23,840 --> 01:20:25,200 Speaker 5: is one of our winners. 1760 01:20:24,960 --> 01:20:27,880 Speaker 1: All right, looking forward to that as we try to 1761 01:20:27,920 --> 01:20:30,200 Speaker 1: hook people up with it's called then exhibition. I thought 1762 01:20:30,200 --> 01:20:32,759 Speaker 1: it was very interesting to hear kind of some behind 1763 01:20:32,760 --> 01:20:37,000 Speaker 1: the scenes from coach Mada about what secret scrimmages are like, 1764 01:20:37,040 --> 01:20:40,439 Speaker 1: where you can coaches can really get into the nitty 1765 01:20:40,439 --> 01:20:43,720 Speaker 1: gritty of coaching and teaching. Stop the game right there? Hey, 1766 01:20:43,720 --> 01:20:46,160 Speaker 1: can you run that again? I need to teach my 1767 01:20:46,280 --> 01:20:48,479 Speaker 1: kids how to respond to that and what to do 1768 01:20:48,920 --> 01:20:52,120 Speaker 1: and that. Being a little disappointed James that we can't 1769 01:20:52,120 --> 01:20:54,400 Speaker 1: have unlimited thirty second timeouts tomorrow. 1770 01:20:54,439 --> 01:20:56,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, when we said that, I was like, Oh, you're 1771 01:20:56,040 --> 01:20:58,559 Speaker 3: such a coach. But as from reviewing experience, I was thinking, 1772 01:20:58,560 --> 01:21:01,200 Speaker 3: I'm so glad they'd like vetoed that. No, I don't 1773 01:21:01,200 --> 01:21:02,720 Speaker 3: want to go to a game we got unlimited thirty 1774 01:21:02,760 --> 01:21:05,360 Speaker 3: second time outs. If it's anything like my high school 1775 01:21:05,360 --> 01:21:07,080 Speaker 3: coach was, we would never get to the first quarter, 1776 01:21:07,160 --> 01:21:10,160 Speaker 3: first half. He stopped to play every single time we 1777 01:21:10,200 --> 01:21:12,640 Speaker 3: went down the court. So it should be a fun 1778 01:21:12,720 --> 01:21:13,720 Speaker 3: environment tomorrow night, though. 1779 01:21:14,080 --> 01:21:16,439 Speaker 2: You're gonna be there, right, Kevin, Yeah, Yeah, really looking 1780 01:21:16,439 --> 01:21:17,040 Speaker 2: forward to it. 1781 01:21:17,479 --> 01:21:17,839 Speaker 3: Obviously. 1782 01:21:17,960 --> 01:21:20,479 Speaker 2: My Notre Dame basketball fandom kind of speaks for it 1783 01:21:21,200 --> 01:21:23,960 Speaker 2: for itself. And again, Butler is a big year for 1784 01:21:24,000 --> 01:21:27,160 Speaker 2: them and we're starting to see again Indiana Baylor next weekend. 1785 01:21:27,160 --> 01:21:30,320 Speaker 2: I think Produce at Kentucky coming up next week. And 1786 01:21:30,400 --> 01:21:33,080 Speaker 2: this is how the college basketball world has evolved a 1787 01:21:33,120 --> 01:21:35,720 Speaker 2: little bit. I still think college basketball really struggles to 1788 01:21:35,760 --> 01:21:40,080 Speaker 2: get into the landscape early in fans' minds, given that 1789 01:21:40,120 --> 01:21:42,559 Speaker 2: it's you know, mid football season. You know, college football 1790 01:21:42,560 --> 01:21:45,320 Speaker 2: does such a great week a great job, I should say, 1791 01:21:45,320 --> 01:21:47,040 Speaker 2: of Labor Day weekend. You know, this year we had 1792 01:21:47,040 --> 01:21:49,960 Speaker 2: what those three top ten matchups you know college basketball 1793 01:21:51,000 --> 01:21:53,400 Speaker 2: like Thanksgiving weekend, right, you know, we kind of get 1794 01:21:53,439 --> 01:21:56,799 Speaker 2: into those like Maui, and I know the Bahamas tournaments 1795 01:21:56,880 --> 01:21:59,360 Speaker 2: kind of lost some of its luster as well. Now 1796 01:21:59,360 --> 01:22:02,920 Speaker 2: it almost seems those December Saturdays, and yes, IU fans, 1797 01:22:03,000 --> 01:22:06,800 Speaker 2: you could have the Saturday of all Saturdays, IU Louisville. 1798 01:22:07,360 --> 01:22:11,639 Speaker 2: That's December sixth, that's two o'clock over a Gamebridge Field House. 1799 01:22:11,800 --> 01:22:15,320 Speaker 2: And if indeed Indiana is in the Big Time Championship, 1800 01:22:15,400 --> 01:22:19,200 Speaker 2: that would be Saturday night over there at Lucas Oil Stadium. 1801 01:22:19,200 --> 01:22:21,960 Speaker 2: That would be quite the Saturday for the Cream and Crimson, 1802 01:22:22,040 --> 01:22:25,800 Speaker 2: and our downtown bars and restaurants would be obsessed with that. 1803 01:22:26,240 --> 01:22:29,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, and again, you can listen to the Notre Dame 1804 01:22:29,200 --> 01:22:31,760 Speaker 1: Butler game tomorrow night on our sister station ninety two 1805 01:22:31,800 --> 01:22:35,080 Speaker 1: point seven Fuego begins at seven o'clock with a tip, 1806 01:22:35,120 --> 01:22:37,679 Speaker 1: but the airtime is six thirty, so keep an eye 1807 01:22:37,680 --> 01:22:40,640 Speaker 1: on that later on tonight. Guys. This is interesting NOOW 1808 01:22:40,640 --> 01:22:43,719 Speaker 1: Thursday night football, Steelers taking on the Bengals, which ordinarily 1809 01:22:43,760 --> 01:22:45,240 Speaker 1: wouldn't pay a lot of attention to. But all of 1810 01:22:45,240 --> 01:22:47,240 Speaker 1: a sudden, you know, the Steelers are four and one 1811 01:22:47,280 --> 01:22:49,439 Speaker 1: and they've already had a buy They've got a two 1812 01:22:49,479 --> 01:22:52,439 Speaker 1: and a half game lead there in the North. And 1813 01:22:52,800 --> 01:22:54,720 Speaker 1: if the Colts are you know, they've got a big 1814 01:22:54,720 --> 01:22:56,280 Speaker 1: game of their own against the Chargers here. But we 1815 01:22:56,320 --> 01:22:58,800 Speaker 1: start looking around other teams that you're going to be 1816 01:22:58,840 --> 01:23:01,720 Speaker 1: jocking for position with down the stretch. If this keeps 1817 01:23:01,800 --> 01:23:03,960 Speaker 1: up for the Colts, Like, I don't think the Steelers 1818 01:23:04,000 --> 01:23:06,280 Speaker 1: are gone away, not in that division, and they you know, 1819 01:23:06,360 --> 01:23:10,760 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers looks like he's mostly Aaron Rodgers. That could 1820 01:23:10,800 --> 01:23:11,719 Speaker 1: be a good football team. 1821 01:23:12,880 --> 01:23:14,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think they're running away with the North. 1822 01:23:15,360 --> 01:23:18,280 Speaker 2: I think you'll who's gonna chase him though? Gravitational pull. 1823 01:23:18,479 --> 01:23:22,160 Speaker 2: I just think that that division just beats each other up. 1824 01:23:22,280 --> 01:23:24,360 Speaker 2: And I don't I just don't. I don't trust Rogers 1825 01:23:24,360 --> 01:23:25,600 Speaker 2: for seventeen weeks. 1826 01:23:26,200 --> 01:23:29,280 Speaker 1: Browns are terrible. They're one in five. Baltimore doesn't know 1827 01:23:29,280 --> 01:23:31,719 Speaker 1: when they're getting their quarterback back. They're one and five 1828 01:23:31,760 --> 01:23:34,920 Speaker 1: the Bengals if they would lose tonight, if Pittsburgh WINNSDA night, 1829 01:23:34,960 --> 01:23:36,360 Speaker 1: they got a three and a half game. 1830 01:23:36,240 --> 01:23:38,120 Speaker 2: Lead, I think basically I'll say that I think the 1831 01:23:38,120 --> 01:23:40,680 Speaker 2: Colts have a better chance to have staying power than 1832 01:23:40,720 --> 01:23:42,440 Speaker 2: the Steelers. 1833 01:23:42,800 --> 01:23:45,760 Speaker 3: That in their division or in the AFC and the AFC. Yeah, 1834 01:23:45,800 --> 01:23:47,680 Speaker 3: because I might be on team Jeff when it comes 1835 01:23:47,720 --> 01:23:49,200 Speaker 3: to no, no, no, that AFC. 1836 01:23:49,520 --> 01:23:51,240 Speaker 2: Like there's only two teams with one loss right now, 1837 01:23:51,520 --> 01:23:53,200 Speaker 2: the Colts and the Steelers, and they do face off 1838 01:23:53,280 --> 01:23:56,439 Speaker 2: here in a couple of weeks. But I don't know, 1839 01:23:56,960 --> 01:23:58,840 Speaker 2: And I'm probably making too much of Rogers against the 1840 01:23:58,840 --> 01:24:00,439 Speaker 2: Colts last year. I thought he looked so bad in 1841 01:24:00,479 --> 01:24:04,000 Speaker 2: that game, But how much. 1842 01:24:03,880 --> 01:24:06,639 Speaker 1: Of those is He's now another year removed from that 1843 01:24:06,720 --> 01:24:07,759 Speaker 1: major injury too? 1844 01:24:07,800 --> 01:24:09,800 Speaker 3: That's probably he also was a New York Jet And 1845 01:24:09,840 --> 01:24:12,840 Speaker 3: I told you yet they're just not good anywhere on Earth? 1846 01:24:12,920 --> 01:24:15,240 Speaker 1: No, yes, what I mean, you guys are right? What's 1847 01:24:15,240 --> 01:24:16,200 Speaker 1: that mean for Justin Fields? 1848 01:24:16,200 --> 01:24:16,360 Speaker 6: Now? 1849 01:24:16,400 --> 01:24:18,640 Speaker 1: Is he just a bad quarterback or just end up 1850 01:24:18,640 --> 01:24:20,880 Speaker 1: in a bad situation again or both. 1851 01:24:21,240 --> 01:24:23,000 Speaker 3: I was going to say, have they won a game. 1852 01:24:23,080 --> 01:24:24,920 Speaker 3: They've won as many games as me and you, Jeff. 1853 01:24:25,400 --> 01:24:27,599 Speaker 3: Bad football team, bad quarterback, whatever you want to say. 1854 01:24:27,600 --> 01:24:28,240 Speaker 3: They're just bad. 1855 01:24:28,479 --> 01:24:32,320 Speaker 1: They are certainly struggling. So yeah, I think this is 1856 01:24:32,520 --> 01:24:35,240 Speaker 1: this is the next three four weeks. This is the 1857 01:24:35,280 --> 01:24:36,880 Speaker 1: middle of the season where you really start to put 1858 01:24:36,880 --> 01:24:40,320 Speaker 1: yourself in position for what lies ahead in the second 1859 01:24:40,360 --> 01:24:42,080 Speaker 1: half of the season. And it's great that the Cults 1860 01:24:42,080 --> 01:24:43,800 Speaker 1: are five and one and I'm excited about it and 1861 01:24:43,840 --> 01:24:46,759 Speaker 1: it's been fun to watch them rack up points against everybody. 1862 01:24:46,800 --> 01:24:50,760 Speaker 1: But as we've been talking about, starting this week, the 1863 01:24:50,840 --> 01:24:53,920 Speaker 1: schedule starts to change a little bit, starts to change. 1864 01:24:55,160 --> 01:24:57,680 Speaker 1: You got the Chargers and then you know, got all 1865 01:24:57,680 --> 01:24:59,479 Speaker 1: these divisional games coming up towards the end. You so 1866 01:24:59,600 --> 01:25:02,200 Speaker 1: got to play games against San Francisco and Seattle'm not 1867 01:25:02,200 --> 01:25:03,800 Speaker 1: in order here, just off the top of my head, 1868 01:25:03,800 --> 01:25:06,400 Speaker 1: but we talked about the Chiefs and the Steelers. So 1869 01:25:06,600 --> 01:25:09,320 Speaker 1: it's gonna be go time pretty quickly for this Colt team. 1870 01:25:09,320 --> 01:25:11,800 Speaker 1: And maybe maybe all these injuries happening right now, maybe 1871 01:25:11,800 --> 01:25:13,680 Speaker 1: they get healthy and ready to go. It's just the 1872 01:25:13,760 --> 01:25:15,120 Speaker 1: right time for all this stuff too. 1873 01:25:16,120 --> 01:25:18,400 Speaker 3: We'll see. I think this wide receiver room is going 1874 01:25:18,439 --> 01:25:19,639 Speaker 3: to look very interesting this weekend. 1875 01:25:19,760 --> 01:25:21,680 Speaker 1: All right, coming up in a minute, I will leave 1876 01:25:21,720 --> 01:25:25,120 Speaker 1: you into the capable hands of James Boyd, Kevin Bowen 1877 01:25:25,160 --> 01:25:30,360 Speaker 1: of course, Caleb just digging in on me today.

We played the Reggie Miller 1917 01:27:12,880 --> 01:27:17,160 Speaker 2: clip yesterday on the Shows, quite the really I think 1918 01:27:17,200 --> 01:27:21,040 Speaker 2: emotional scene between Tyrese Haliburn listening to what Reggie Miller 1919 01:27:21,640 --> 01:27:25,559 Speaker 2: was describing his effort to risk it during that NBA 1920 01:27:25,680 --> 01:27:28,840 Speaker 2: Finals series.

Pacers back to practice later today, 1951 01:28:57,479 --> 01:29:00,439 Speaker 2: off to San Antonio their final preseason game tomorrow. 1952 01:29:00,560 --> 01:29:01,799 Speaker 3: Last year they did play. 1953 01:29:01,640 --> 01:29:04,920 Speaker 2: Season finale, Scott, to leave it pretty open ended, just 1954 01:29:05,000 --> 01:29:08,040 Speaker 2: your thoughts so far through three preseason games on what 1955 01:29:08,080 --> 01:29:10,400 Speaker 2: you've liked and what you haven't liked from the Pacers. 1956 01:29:10,920 --> 01:29:12,839 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'd say to start. 1957 01:29:12,960 --> 01:29:16,000 Speaker 12: What's been the challenge obviously is health for us to 1958 01:29:16,040 --> 01:29:18,040 Speaker 12: see some of the guys come back to see what 1959 01:29:18,600 --> 01:29:23,800 Speaker 12: the full ideas and in terms of roles. 1960 01:29:23,439 --> 01:29:24,800 Speaker 6: That different players will have. 1961 01:29:25,040 --> 01:29:26,720 Speaker 12: So that's got to be the number one thing that 1962 01:29:26,760 --> 01:29:30,200 Speaker 12: they've got to shore up and make do because then 1963 01:29:30,240 --> 01:29:34,799 Speaker 12: that leads to turnovers. Averaging twenty four turnovers in these games. 1964 01:29:35,560 --> 01:29:37,840 Speaker 12: That's been a big red flag to me. I mean, 1965 01:29:37,880 --> 01:29:40,640 Speaker 12: I get you're playing different lineups and maybe you're not 1966 01:29:40,760 --> 01:29:44,000 Speaker 12: playing key guys even in the second half, but you 1967 01:29:44,120 --> 01:29:45,960 Speaker 12: need to see that number cut in half. 1968 01:29:46,520 --> 01:29:49,000 Speaker 6: And so I'm sure that's something they're going to be working. 1969 01:29:48,760 --> 01:29:51,599 Speaker 12: On, not just this week but over the next several 1970 01:29:51,640 --> 01:29:52,959 Speaker 12: weeks to get better intact. 1971 01:29:53,320 --> 01:29:56,200 Speaker 6: And then that the big concern at center is still there. 1972 01:29:56,320 --> 01:29:57,559 Speaker 6: I mean, one, you. 1973 01:29:57,479 --> 01:30:00,080 Speaker 12: Have two guys still coming off in Achilles injuries, so 1974 01:30:00,120 --> 01:30:02,720 Speaker 12: it's asking a lot of them right now to. 1975 01:30:02,720 --> 01:30:03,639 Speaker 6: Play a full workload. 1976 01:30:03,680 --> 01:30:06,880 Speaker 12: And then two, none of them really were with this 1977 01:30:06,920 --> 01:30:09,519 Speaker 12: group last year, so it's integrating them, not even just 1978 01:30:09,560 --> 01:30:13,479 Speaker 12: reintegrating them into the lineup. And you've got to get 1979 01:30:13,479 --> 01:30:15,800 Speaker 12: more production. Obviously, I'm sure you guys have hit on it. 1980 01:30:15,840 --> 01:30:18,120 Speaker 12: The fact that you don't get any field goals last 1981 01:30:18,160 --> 01:30:22,240 Speaker 12: game from your centers, and foul trouble continue to rear 1982 01:30:22,280 --> 01:30:26,920 Speaker 12: its ugly had several different preseason games, so that's got 1983 01:30:26,920 --> 01:30:30,760 Speaker 12: to get short up and then probably the positive I 1984 01:30:30,760 --> 01:30:31,439 Speaker 12: would take aways. 1985 01:30:31,479 --> 01:30:33,080 Speaker 6: I really like the way they've shot. 1986 01:30:32,840 --> 01:30:35,559 Speaker 12: The ball from outside, and then I really like what 1987 01:30:35,600 --> 01:30:39,040 Speaker 12: we saw from the returning three starters, where if they 1988 01:30:39,040 --> 01:30:42,000 Speaker 12: didn't play Friday, that'd be fined by me because they 1989 01:30:42,040 --> 01:30:45,080 Speaker 12: had a long season last year and coming right into 1990 01:30:45,160 --> 01:30:45,679 Speaker 12: it this year. 1991 01:30:46,880 --> 01:30:50,719 Speaker 3: Scott, when you look at the role that Benedict Matheren 1992 01:30:50,760 --> 01:30:54,320 Speaker 3: will be in, how unique of a challenge do you 1993 01:30:54,360 --> 01:30:57,720 Speaker 3: think it'll be for him to play Pacers basketball, move 1994 01:30:57,760 --> 01:31:01,240 Speaker 3: the ball, make quick decisions. And also, with the absence 1995 01:31:01,240 --> 01:31:04,599 Speaker 3: of Tyres, he's kind of been thrust more into being 1996 01:31:04,760 --> 01:31:07,960 Speaker 3: who he is as a scorer. So what's the balancing 1997 01:31:08,000 --> 01:31:10,160 Speaker 3: act there? And how do you think he strikes that 1998 01:31:10,280 --> 01:31:12,720 Speaker 3: balance to the point that the Pacers want him to? 1999 01:31:13,320 --> 01:31:15,840 Speaker 12: Yeah, it makes you wonder, is it's not so easy 2000 01:31:15,880 --> 01:31:17,000 Speaker 12: to put away. 2001 01:31:16,760 --> 01:31:17,639 Speaker 6: Old habits right? 2002 01:31:17,720 --> 01:31:20,799 Speaker 12: Like he has always been that best player on the floor, 2003 01:31:20,800 --> 01:31:23,479 Speaker 12: put the head down just to tack the basket and 2004 01:31:23,520 --> 01:31:25,519 Speaker 12: be the best player getting to the free throw line. 2005 01:31:25,560 --> 01:31:28,400 Speaker 12: I mean him and Siakamo battle for free attempts this season. 2006 01:31:28,439 --> 01:31:30,240 Speaker 6: They're the two best at it on this group. 2007 01:31:30,560 --> 01:31:33,960 Speaker 12: I would guess there might be some moments I'm wondering 2008 01:31:33,960 --> 01:31:36,439 Speaker 12: if you have that old good lance bad lance, do 2009 01:31:36,479 --> 01:31:38,360 Speaker 12: you have good and bad Ben? 2010 01:31:38,439 --> 01:31:41,120 Speaker 6: Where a couple times maybe it Ben gets going, then 2011 01:31:41,160 --> 01:31:42,040 Speaker 6: he puts his head. 2012 01:31:41,920 --> 01:31:45,040 Speaker 12: Down in resorts to those bad habits. But I'm most 2013 01:31:45,080 --> 01:31:46,960 Speaker 12: intrigued James to see what he can do on the 2014 01:31:46,960 --> 01:31:47,600 Speaker 12: defensive end. 2015 01:31:47,640 --> 01:31:49,599 Speaker 6: He's talking about being more of a two way guy. 2016 01:31:50,080 --> 01:31:53,559 Speaker 12: Obviously, that's a major storyline that has gotten tucked away 2017 01:31:53,600 --> 01:31:55,880 Speaker 12: in the filing cablet just because there's so many other 2018 01:31:55,960 --> 01:31:59,120 Speaker 12: more pressing issues right now. But when you're asking Andrew 2019 01:31:59,200 --> 01:32:03,160 Speaker 12: Nemhard to elevate his usage rate and how he's leading 2020 01:32:03,160 --> 01:32:05,720 Speaker 12: these offense, I don't think he'll be able to do 2021 01:32:05,760 --> 01:32:07,920 Speaker 12: what he was able to do defensively, and so that 2022 01:32:08,040 --> 01:32:11,320 Speaker 12: leans on other guys, especially Matherin, to take on more 2023 01:32:11,400 --> 01:32:15,960 Speaker 12: defensive assignments and with that maybe that will help balance 2024 01:32:16,080 --> 01:32:18,680 Speaker 12: Ben out. But the other thing, though, is you want 2025 01:32:18,720 --> 01:32:20,840 Speaker 12: to unleash him to be fair right like the other 2026 01:32:20,920 --> 01:32:25,080 Speaker 12: night was spectacular in that last preseason game where he 2027 01:32:25,120 --> 01:32:27,160 Speaker 12: went off and I think finished with thirty one points. 2028 01:32:27,439 --> 01:32:29,519 Speaker 6: That's what you hope to get many different times throughout 2029 01:32:29,560 --> 01:32:29,840 Speaker 6: the year. 2030 01:32:30,240 --> 01:32:32,320 Speaker 3: Scott, I'm glad you brought up defense when it comes 2031 01:32:32,320 --> 01:32:35,559 Speaker 3: to Matheren because I think it's such a unique way 2032 01:32:35,600 --> 01:32:38,560 Speaker 3: we look at defense from I guess a fan standpoint, 2033 01:32:38,600 --> 01:32:41,519 Speaker 3: even myself as a reporter, at times it's like, Okay, 2034 01:32:41,560 --> 01:32:43,280 Speaker 3: you want to better on defense, just give more effort. 2035 01:32:43,680 --> 01:32:47,080 Speaker 3: But that's not necessarily the case. So has he spoken 2036 01:32:47,120 --> 01:32:50,040 Speaker 3: at all about how to get better defensively and what 2037 01:32:50,080 --> 01:32:52,320 Speaker 3: that looks like during the offseason, because, for example, we 2038 01:32:52,360 --> 01:32:54,840 Speaker 3: say a guy has to be a better shooter. We 2039 01:32:54,880 --> 01:32:56,479 Speaker 3: all know, okay, get in the gym and take those 2040 01:32:56,479 --> 01:32:58,439 Speaker 3: shots so you can make them come game time. But 2041 01:32:58,960 --> 01:33:01,040 Speaker 3: I don't know is a defensive lies Is it watching 2042 01:33:01,040 --> 01:33:02,600 Speaker 3: more film? Is it knowing where to be on the 2043 01:33:02,600 --> 01:33:04,840 Speaker 3: help side? What have you talked about on that end 2044 01:33:04,840 --> 01:33:07,160 Speaker 3: of the floor specifically to get better at Yeah. 2045 01:33:06,960 --> 01:33:08,559 Speaker 12: I think it is more on the ladder. It starts 2046 01:33:08,560 --> 01:33:11,040 Speaker 12: with knowing your personnel. Kyp is all the players will 2047 01:33:11,040 --> 01:33:13,720 Speaker 12: make you and if things don't go well, they'll say 2048 01:33:13,720 --> 01:33:14,439 Speaker 12: it post it man. 2049 01:33:14,439 --> 01:33:16,080 Speaker 6: We did in Kyp Man like. 2050 01:33:16,520 --> 01:33:18,639 Speaker 8: You know, So I think it certainly starts there. 2051 01:33:18,680 --> 01:33:19,400 Speaker 3: They often you. 2052 01:33:19,360 --> 01:33:21,040 Speaker 12: Want to be on a string of how you you 2053 01:33:21,160 --> 01:33:24,720 Speaker 12: move in So I think, to me, yes, it's the 2054 01:33:24,920 --> 01:33:25,840 Speaker 12: it's less. 2055 01:33:25,800 --> 01:33:27,559 Speaker 6: Energy and more focus. 2056 01:33:28,080 --> 01:33:31,559 Speaker 12: UH is more the the the intent there, and then 2057 01:33:31,600 --> 01:33:34,080 Speaker 12: it also is knowing where everyone needs to be. That 2058 01:33:35,160 --> 01:33:37,599 Speaker 12: so much of it is predicated on mixing things up 2059 01:33:37,680 --> 01:33:38,280 Speaker 12: or do you switch? 2060 01:33:38,360 --> 01:33:40,640 Speaker 6: Do you not? Are you blitzing? Are you know? 2061 01:33:40,720 --> 01:33:43,439 Speaker 12: Are you going above the screen below the screen and 2062 01:33:43,560 --> 01:33:46,840 Speaker 12: making sure you're doing whatever coaching staff is instructing you to. 2063 01:33:47,720 --> 01:33:49,720 Speaker 12: I think that's what it comes down to him. I 2064 01:33:49,720 --> 01:33:53,240 Speaker 12: don't think it's an energy or disinterested or just taking 2065 01:33:53,280 --> 01:33:56,559 Speaker 12: plays off. I think it's it's more mental than anything, 2066 01:33:56,600 --> 01:33:57,519 Speaker 12: being locked in on. 2067 01:33:57,560 --> 01:34:00,400 Speaker 6: Exactly what was preached upon before the game. 2068 01:34:00,760 --> 01:34:02,880 Speaker 2: Scott, last one for me and I guess while we're 2069 01:34:02,920 --> 01:34:05,320 Speaker 2: on the Matheren train, I'll throw one more. And the 2070 01:34:05,360 --> 01:34:09,360 Speaker 2: reason why is yesterday you did see Keegan Murray drafted 2071 01:34:09,400 --> 01:34:13,680 Speaker 2: two spots ahead a Benedic Matheren sign an extension. I 2072 01:34:13,680 --> 01:34:16,719 Speaker 2: believe it was five years, one hundred and forty million. 2073 01:34:17,240 --> 01:34:19,160 Speaker 2: I don't think the Mathern start to his career and 2074 01:34:19,160 --> 01:34:23,120 Speaker 2: the Murray start to his career are exactly apples to apples, 2075 01:34:23,120 --> 01:34:26,240 Speaker 2: but I don't think they're that far off either. Are 2076 01:34:26,320 --> 01:34:29,040 Speaker 2: you under the assumption that this year just plays out 2077 01:34:29,400 --> 01:34:32,280 Speaker 2: and both parties probably view it as a we'll figure 2078 01:34:32,280 --> 01:34:35,599 Speaker 2: out the extension down the road. I could see, you know, 2079 01:34:35,680 --> 01:34:38,639 Speaker 2: each side saying, yeah, it's probably the best if we wait. 2080 01:34:39,400 --> 01:34:42,160 Speaker 12: Yeah, that's been my interpretation all along with all this, 2081 01:34:43,000 --> 01:34:45,400 Speaker 12: just like it was like they did with Isaiah Jackson 2082 01:34:45,479 --> 01:34:48,439 Speaker 12: last year for example, with the Pacers. Now, when in 2083 01:34:48,439 --> 01:34:52,080 Speaker 12: Indiana does do these deals very often it's down to 2084 01:34:52,280 --> 01:34:55,360 Speaker 12: the final hour or I think in Miles Turner's case, 2085 01:34:55,360 --> 01:34:58,200 Speaker 12: which an anniversary of like his first four year extension 2086 01:34:58,280 --> 01:35:02,120 Speaker 12: was yesterday. By the way it was, it was like 2087 01:35:02,160 --> 01:35:03,760 Speaker 12: the final thirty minut him over there. 2088 01:35:03,920 --> 01:35:05,639 Speaker 6: Surprise if it's the final day. 2089 01:35:05,680 --> 01:35:09,599 Speaker 12: But that's said, I'm not expecting anything at this point. 2090 01:35:09,640 --> 01:35:10,439 Speaker 6: I think he has a. 2091 01:35:10,439 --> 01:35:13,200 Speaker 12: High value on where he's at, what he wants in 2092 01:35:13,600 --> 01:35:15,880 Speaker 12: the confidence level, and what his game is and what 2093 01:35:15,960 --> 01:35:19,080 Speaker 12: it's worth. And I think if you're the Pacers, yeah, 2094 01:35:19,120 --> 01:35:21,320 Speaker 12: you want to sit. This is the year where you 2095 01:35:21,360 --> 01:35:24,519 Speaker 12: know there's gonna be ample opportunity. Okay, let's see what 2096 01:35:24,720 --> 01:35:26,880 Speaker 12: he does and if he's able to make the most 2097 01:35:26,960 --> 01:35:29,360 Speaker 12: of it, and if so, you're happy to reward that. 2098 01:35:29,400 --> 01:35:32,240 Speaker 3: Absolutely so, Scott, the last one for me, Let you 2099 01:35:32,280 --> 01:35:35,400 Speaker 3: get out of here. I saw that the Celtics media 2100 01:35:36,200 --> 01:35:40,439 Speaker 3: played against the Celtics coaching staff and lost fifty seven 2101 01:35:40,479 --> 01:35:44,479 Speaker 3: to four. So I'm asking you if we lace them up. 2102 01:35:45,160 --> 01:35:47,200 Speaker 3: I'm not saying we gotta win, but are we getting 2103 01:35:47,200 --> 01:35:50,040 Speaker 3: the double digits? I have my Halliburton want at the 2104 01:35:50,080 --> 01:35:53,160 Speaker 3: crib right now. I'm ready, so you know, just let 2105 01:35:53,200 --> 01:35:55,519 Speaker 3: me know he can we get that coordinated? You know, 2106 01:35:55,680 --> 01:35:57,400 Speaker 3: I'll talk to some people. You talk to some people. 2107 01:35:57,880 --> 01:35:58,439 Speaker 3: How about it? 2108 01:35:59,479 --> 01:36:01,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, you talking to people. 2109 01:36:03,320 --> 01:36:05,639 Speaker 12: I would break out my PG ones if for some 2110 01:36:05,720 --> 01:36:09,639 Speaker 12: reason I was actually invited to that, and I think 2111 01:36:09,680 --> 01:36:10,679 Speaker 12: we'd get a good eight. 2112 01:36:10,560 --> 01:36:11,439 Speaker 6: To twelve points. 2113 01:36:11,520 --> 01:36:11,880 Speaker 4: I do. 2114 01:36:12,000 --> 01:36:13,080 Speaker 6: I think this is Indiana. 2115 01:36:13,120 --> 01:36:18,320 Speaker 12: We got shooters. I'm a happy passer. I'm like Caitlin 2116 01:36:18,360 --> 01:36:20,040 Speaker 12: out there and trying to pass the ball. And so 2117 01:36:20,080 --> 01:36:22,360 Speaker 12: I would love to remember we played that the media 2118 01:36:22,400 --> 01:36:25,960 Speaker 12: game at Hinkle, which was awesome during the NBA Finals, 2119 01:36:26,000 --> 01:36:28,720 Speaker 12: but it was cool going back. I think KBU were 2120 01:36:28,760 --> 01:36:31,160 Speaker 12: there during our senior year. I want to say at 2121 01:36:31,200 --> 01:36:34,519 Speaker 12: IU JD. Campbell and the PR staff invited us there 2122 01:36:35,040 --> 01:36:37,200 Speaker 12: and that was just a fun day. They set us 2123 01:36:37,280 --> 01:36:39,280 Speaker 12: up in the locker room, gave us some gear, and 2124 01:36:39,920 --> 01:36:42,840 Speaker 12: gave us an opportunity to see what it was like 2125 01:36:42,920 --> 01:36:46,040 Speaker 12: while Also, the players saw us in a different environment, 2126 01:36:46,120 --> 01:36:48,320 Speaker 12: the ones that were always writing and reporting about them. 2127 01:36:48,400 --> 01:36:50,480 Speaker 6: So it was a fun and unique experience. 2128 01:36:50,520 --> 01:36:52,880 Speaker 12: But I do think we'd be able to get more 2129 01:36:52,920 --> 01:36:53,519 Speaker 12: than four points. 2130 01:36:53,600 --> 01:36:53,800 Speaker 1: Yeah. 2131 01:36:53,800 --> 01:36:55,680 Speaker 2: I never thought I'd be coached by Jim Cruise in 2132 01:36:55,680 --> 01:36:58,720 Speaker 2: my life, but I was for today back there in 2133 01:36:59,160 --> 01:37:02,400 Speaker 2: twenty twelve. Again tonight, you've got that Starting five documentary 2134 01:37:02,479 --> 01:37:05,360 Speaker 2: on Netflix, l debut Tyres Haliburn one of the five 2135 01:37:05,360 --> 01:37:09,600 Speaker 2: players featured, and then tomorrow night preseason finale in San Antonio, 2136 01:37:09,840 --> 01:37:13,040 Speaker 2: Scott as always, thank you, sir, all right, thanks guys, 2137 01:37:13,320 --> 01:37:16,759 Speaker 2: Scott Agnes Fieldhouse Files. I'm picturing like Dustin to Pirac, 2138 01:37:16,840 --> 01:37:18,800 Speaker 2: like cutting back door. You think we'd be able to 2139 01:37:18,800 --> 01:37:19,920 Speaker 2: get a bucket off that you know. 2140 01:37:20,040 --> 01:37:21,960 Speaker 3: Oh he's dunking that you fall you know? You know 2141 01:37:22,040 --> 01:37:23,519 Speaker 3: you see my boy dust and lays them up. 2142 01:37:23,560 --> 01:37:23,720 Speaker 1: You know? 2143 01:37:23,720 --> 01:37:25,679 Speaker 2: Can we get Jim Boyle and falling asleep on defense? 2144 01:37:25,800 --> 01:37:25,880 Speaker 12: All? 2145 01:37:25,920 --> 01:37:28,040 Speaker 3: What I'm saying is I got the Halliburton once in 2146 01:37:28,040 --> 01:37:30,840 Speaker 3: a way, Johnny Furfy's dunking in those things. I might 2147 01:37:30,880 --> 01:37:32,439 Speaker 3: have an extra boost in the vertical. 2148 01:37:32,840 --> 01:37:36,280 Speaker 2: Happy twenty sixth birthday, Speaking of extensions, aaron Ne Smith 2149 01:37:36,880 --> 01:37:38,400 Speaker 2: sounds like as well. 2150 01:37:38,439 --> 01:37:39,759 Speaker 3: Absolutely him around. 2151 01:37:39,800 --> 01:37:41,439 Speaker 2: You know, right down the preseason for those that haven't 2152 01:37:41,439 --> 01:37:46,920 Speaker 2: watched the four man core of Nemhard Matherin, Nei Smith, Siakam, 2153 01:37:47,040 --> 01:37:50,040 Speaker 2: you really really like it looked great outside of that center. 2154 01:37:50,479 --> 01:37:53,320 Speaker 2: Depth Again, is your depth a superpower? I think that 2155 01:37:53,360 --> 01:37:55,439 Speaker 2: will be a question here as we are one week away, 2156 01:37:55,479 --> 01:38:00,200 Speaker 2: one week from tonight Pacers and Thunder kicking off the 2157 01:38:00,240 --> 01:38:02,920 Speaker 2: regular season. James E tease this a little bit obviously, 2158 01:38:02,920 --> 01:38:06,559 Speaker 2: coltson Chargers coming up Sunday four h five. Colts a 2159 01:38:06,600 --> 01:38:09,000 Speaker 2: slight underdog in this one, and with both head coaches, 2160 01:38:09,040 --> 01:38:11,320 Speaker 2: you have a lot of connections. Shane Siken got his 2161 01:38:11,400 --> 01:38:14,880 Speaker 2: NFL start with Norv Turner and the Chargers. Shane spent 2162 01:38:15,080 --> 01:38:19,120 Speaker 2: nine years with the Chargers, ascending. He was actually the 2163 01:38:19,160 --> 01:38:23,919 Speaker 2: OC for Justin Herbert's rookie season, and if I remember correctly, 2164 01:38:24,000 --> 01:38:28,040 Speaker 2: I believe that was the initial they started Tyrod Taylor 2165 01:38:28,640 --> 01:38:33,760 Speaker 2: the freak giving him that shot before a game and 2166 01:38:35,400 --> 01:38:37,439 Speaker 2: malfunctions the word coming in my head, that's probably not 2167 01:38:37,439 --> 01:38:40,000 Speaker 2: the right term, but something went wrong and all of 2168 01:38:40,000 --> 01:38:42,000 Speaker 2: a sudden they needed to start Herbert and the rest 2169 01:38:42,040 --> 01:38:44,120 Speaker 2: is history. Herbert threw for the most touchdowns I believe 2170 01:38:44,120 --> 01:38:47,880 Speaker 2: of any rookie. Both parties Herbert and Ssiken's spoken very 2171 01:38:47,920 --> 01:38:51,160 Speaker 2: highly of each other this week. And then of course 2172 01:38:51,240 --> 01:38:54,160 Speaker 2: Jim Harbaugh's connection probably to our audience, speaks for itself. 2173 01:38:54,160 --> 01:38:57,360 Speaker 2: A cult here from ninety four to ninety seven. Let's 2174 01:38:57,400 --> 01:39:00,400 Speaker 2: play this clip, Caleb, this is Jim Harball yesterday, And 2175 01:39:00,439 --> 01:39:02,240 Speaker 2: just to kind of set it up, he was asked 2176 01:39:02,240 --> 01:39:06,639 Speaker 2: a very general question about the Colts, the twenty five Colts, 2177 01:39:06,640 --> 01:39:09,320 Speaker 2: and as he made his way through the answer, he 2178 01:39:09,400 --> 01:39:12,719 Speaker 2: wanted to make sure he gave proper acknowledgment to Jim Mersay. 2179 01:39:13,040 --> 01:39:14,639 Speaker 13: And that's why I can't talk about the Colts without 2180 01:39:14,920 --> 01:39:21,720 Speaker 13: talking about mister Ursa passed away earlier this year. But 2181 01:39:22,280 --> 01:39:28,040 Speaker 13: I mean a guys guy, love for the team, just 2182 01:39:28,080 --> 01:39:34,360 Speaker 13: people in general, always doing, always, always wanted to affect 2183 01:39:34,360 --> 01:39:37,080 Speaker 13: your day in a positive way. And probably not a 2184 01:39:37,120 --> 01:39:42,360 Speaker 13: more philanthropic family. Be tough to name one, and the 2185 01:39:42,400 --> 01:39:45,439 Speaker 13: family has done a great job with the team. But 2186 01:39:46,920 --> 01:39:49,200 Speaker 13: fond memories, you know, like you get in the weight 2187 01:39:49,280 --> 01:39:52,160 Speaker 13: room with you and he was strong, he was a powerlifter, 2188 01:39:53,040 --> 01:39:55,439 Speaker 13: but he also could you know, love the music and 2189 01:39:55,439 --> 01:40:03,000 Speaker 13: play the guitar and just always welcome people, people around, 2190 01:40:03,040 --> 01:40:05,720 Speaker 13: and it was always it's always doing you know, it's 2191 01:40:05,800 --> 01:40:09,719 Speaker 13: like now an attitude of just doing anything and everything 2192 01:40:09,840 --> 01:40:13,280 Speaker 13: for for those that were on his team or his 2193 01:40:13,360 --> 01:40:18,120 Speaker 13: friends or his family. Really be really bess, really be missed. 2194 01:40:18,160 --> 01:40:18,439 Speaker 12: He was. 2195 01:40:19,000 --> 01:40:20,679 Speaker 13: He was one of my one of my favorite people 2196 01:40:20,680 --> 01:40:23,759 Speaker 13: I've ever been associated with in football. 2197 01:40:24,280 --> 01:40:25,800 Speaker 3: Good on Jim Harble for that. 2198 01:40:26,360 --> 01:40:30,200 Speaker 2: Enjoyed listening to him yesterday. Chat about that. Uh and 2199 01:40:30,640 --> 01:40:33,320 Speaker 2: I think I see I could just listen to Harball. 2200 01:40:33,760 --> 01:40:35,560 Speaker 2: I feel like he's got one of the more interesting, 2201 01:40:36,880 --> 01:40:39,400 Speaker 2: I don't know, speech patterns. I was listening to the 2202 01:40:39,400 --> 01:40:42,720 Speaker 2: postgame locker group a celebration after the game, and it's 2203 01:40:42,840 --> 01:40:45,040 Speaker 2: I mean he I guess after each win they all 2204 01:40:45,040 --> 01:40:47,200 Speaker 2: give high fives to each other and he's like literally 2205 01:40:47,200 --> 01:40:48,960 Speaker 2: being like all right, time to high five, and literally 2206 01:40:49,000 --> 01:40:50,599 Speaker 2: like everyone in the locker rooms high five in each other. 2207 01:40:50,720 --> 01:40:52,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's like a characature. 2208 01:40:52,360 --> 01:40:53,240 Speaker 1: He literally is. 2209 01:40:53,439 --> 01:40:54,519 Speaker 3: He's so captain compa. 2210 01:40:54,680 --> 01:40:59,519 Speaker 2: Maybe he's so entertaining Colt Chargers coming up Saturday or Sunday. 2211 01:41:00,120 --> 01:41:03,320 Speaker 2: You definitely think that Traveri's ward loss is bigger than 2212 01:41:03,360 --> 01:41:05,439 Speaker 2: Josh Downs, right, assuming neither play. 2213 01:41:06,000 --> 01:41:08,360 Speaker 3: Yes, I do think That is a bigger loss because, 2214 01:41:08,720 --> 01:41:11,559 Speaker 3: as we've seen, that wide receiver room for the Colts 2215 01:41:11,560 --> 01:41:13,760 Speaker 3: has depth in it. It's a lot of talent, and 2216 01:41:13,800 --> 01:41:16,240 Speaker 3: I think you can supplement some of the loss of 2217 01:41:16,360 --> 01:41:20,120 Speaker 3: the wide receiver with Tyler Warren even he could play 2218 01:41:20,160 --> 01:41:22,800 Speaker 3: the slot, but when you look at cornerback, it's just 2219 01:41:22,800 --> 01:41:25,719 Speaker 3: not that simple if Ward is not in there. Jonathan 2220 01:41:25,800 --> 01:41:30,160 Speaker 3: Edwards is the guy again for the second straight week. 2221 01:41:30,200 --> 01:41:31,840 Speaker 3: I did talk to him yesterday. I'll have something on 2222 01:41:31,880 --> 01:41:34,519 Speaker 3: that and my story upcoming very soon. But he was 2223 01:41:34,600 --> 01:41:37,720 Speaker 3: very candid about his play and how not so great 2224 01:41:37,800 --> 01:41:39,680 Speaker 3: it was against the Cardinals. 2225 01:41:40,000 --> 01:41:42,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, So just to update everybody injury report wise for 2226 01:41:42,400 --> 01:41:45,839 Speaker 2: the Colts from yesterday again, Javarious Wards still in concussion protocol. 2227 01:41:45,920 --> 01:41:48,880 Speaker 2: Kenny Moore was limited, so we'll see if three days 2228 01:41:48,920 --> 01:41:52,040 Speaker 2: of practice it is enough. You know, he has missed 2229 01:41:52,040 --> 01:41:54,400 Speaker 2: the last three games, so what the achilles injury? 2230 01:41:54,439 --> 01:41:55,080 Speaker 3: Is that enough? 2231 01:41:55,360 --> 01:41:58,759 Speaker 2: That would obviously help out big time. But we mentioned 2232 01:41:58,800 --> 01:42:02,200 Speaker 2: Josh Downs. Sounds like he developed some concussion like symptoms 2233 01:42:02,240 --> 01:42:07,160 Speaker 2: after the game on Monday and now he is in protocol, 2234 01:42:07,200 --> 01:42:11,200 Speaker 2: so he missed yesterday. Last year, they really did a 2235 01:42:11,200 --> 01:42:13,599 Speaker 2: lot of ad Mitchell in the slot when he was out, 2236 01:42:13,960 --> 01:42:17,320 Speaker 2: and now obviously you have Tyler Warren. To your point, James, 2237 01:42:17,880 --> 01:42:20,120 Speaker 2: I'd be curious if Ashton Doolan's healthy, he did miss 2238 01:42:20,240 --> 01:42:22,720 Speaker 2: yesterday with the chest injury, if he could get a 2239 01:42:22,760 --> 01:42:24,240 Speaker 2: little bit of look there. I don't know if they're 2240 01:42:24,280 --> 01:42:28,040 Speaker 2: ready for Anthony Gould to be the guy if they 2241 01:42:28,080 --> 01:42:29,680 Speaker 2: really want to go deep in the weeds. They do 2242 01:42:29,720 --> 01:42:33,120 Speaker 2: have coleman Owen on the practice squad, so we'll see 2243 01:42:33,160 --> 01:42:36,559 Speaker 2: how that plays out for the Chargers. They still are down. 2244 01:42:36,680 --> 01:42:41,680 Speaker 2: It looks like they're top three offensive tackles. So you 2245 01:42:41,680 --> 01:42:43,880 Speaker 2: know when you're playing a great head coach, a great 2246 01:42:43,960 --> 01:42:46,639 Speaker 2: quarterback and a defense that there are some nice elements 2247 01:42:46,680 --> 01:42:48,160 Speaker 2: to their defense. They are very good stop in the 2248 01:42:48,200 --> 01:42:52,479 Speaker 2: run though, that to me is what you circle limiting 2249 01:42:52,600 --> 01:42:55,439 Speaker 2: Justin Herbert and that wide receiver corps. Giving your cornerback 2250 01:42:55,479 --> 01:43:00,280 Speaker 2: depth looks bad on paper, but how much can you 2251 01:43:00,320 --> 01:43:02,800 Speaker 2: just get to Herbert and get to him, you know, 2252 01:43:02,840 --> 01:43:07,000 Speaker 2: in a very frequent manner, because your d line should 2253 01:43:07,080 --> 01:43:09,400 Speaker 2: be absolutely foaming at the mouth. 2254 01:43:09,520 --> 01:43:12,759 Speaker 3: And what this looks like, Caleb, If these boys don't 2255 01:43:12,760 --> 01:43:18,160 Speaker 3: feast against this banged up offensive line, we have issues. 2256 01:43:18,320 --> 01:43:19,320 Speaker 3: I think that's the story. 2257 01:43:19,320 --> 01:43:21,599 Speaker 5: You guys have laid it out perfectly over the last 2258 01:43:21,680 --> 01:43:23,680 Speaker 5: couple of days, and I think Kevin, you said it 2259 01:43:23,720 --> 01:43:26,200 Speaker 5: earlier in the week. You said, if there was any 2260 01:43:26,280 --> 01:43:30,560 Speaker 5: week to figure it out and get the most investment 2261 01:43:30,600 --> 01:43:32,840 Speaker 5: out of that offensive line, it has to be this week. 2262 01:43:32,920 --> 01:43:35,280 Speaker 5: And I understand Herbert's tough to bring down too, and 2263 01:43:35,479 --> 01:43:38,840 Speaker 5: we saw that in the Miami game. But I think, 2264 01:43:39,160 --> 01:43:42,360 Speaker 5: especially with you know, your corners kind of banged up, 2265 01:43:42,439 --> 01:43:45,320 Speaker 5: like the pass rush has to be a vital part 2266 01:43:45,320 --> 01:43:45,680 Speaker 5: of this game. 2267 01:43:45,680 --> 01:43:47,720 Speaker 3: I think it's a story of the game. Absolutely. I 2268 01:43:47,720 --> 01:43:49,839 Speaker 3: mean talking to Loot to Lots and lock hom yesterday, 2269 01:43:49,840 --> 01:43:52,960 Speaker 3: and it is no disrespect to him. Every player reacts 2270 01:43:53,000 --> 01:43:55,960 Speaker 3: to media differently and it has no bearing on how 2271 01:43:55,960 --> 01:44:00,400 Speaker 3: they perform, but talking to him about the lack of pressure, 2272 01:44:01,000 --> 01:44:04,040 Speaker 3: not like a pressure, but lack of success they've had 2273 01:44:04,200 --> 01:44:06,960 Speaker 3: up front despite having the sixteen sacks and being seventh 2274 01:44:06,960 --> 01:44:09,479 Speaker 3: in the league. Like Kevin said, you gotta watch some 2275 01:44:09,520 --> 01:44:11,240 Speaker 3: of these games to see how they feel. Do you 2276 01:44:11,320 --> 01:44:14,639 Speaker 3: feel like you're getting there when it comes to disrupting 2277 01:44:14,680 --> 01:44:16,679 Speaker 3: the opposing quarterback and that just hasn't been the case. 2278 01:44:16,720 --> 01:44:20,599 Speaker 3: I mean, you look at Jacobe Brissette over three hundred 2279 01:44:20,640 --> 01:44:23,000 Speaker 3: yards for the first time in years, almost let his 2280 01:44:23,040 --> 01:44:25,800 Speaker 3: team on a fourth quarter game winning touchdown drive. He 2281 01:44:26,000 --> 01:44:28,599 Speaker 3: was nine yards away from us, looking at everybody and saying, 2282 01:44:29,240 --> 01:44:30,840 Speaker 3: what the heck is going on with the defense? And 2283 01:44:30,880 --> 01:44:34,519 Speaker 3: so to your point, Caleb, I'm definitely going to hit 2284 01:44:34,560 --> 01:44:35,840 Speaker 3: on that in the story that I have coming as 2285 01:44:35,880 --> 01:44:39,280 Speaker 3: the athletic because I do think it's not a mirage 2286 01:44:39,360 --> 01:44:41,479 Speaker 3: what the Colts have done, because being five to one, 2287 01:44:41,520 --> 01:44:44,479 Speaker 3: you get there however you can. But I do wonder 2288 01:44:44,520 --> 01:44:46,519 Speaker 3: if it's kind of a mirage with the defense, where 2289 01:44:46,520 --> 01:44:49,519 Speaker 3: it's like, is this especially when you go up against 2290 01:44:49,520 --> 01:44:52,880 Speaker 3: better talent, because the best quarterback you face this season 2291 01:44:53,360 --> 01:44:56,920 Speaker 3: was obviously Matthew Stafford took a loss there. Now, granted 2292 01:44:56,960 --> 01:44:58,599 Speaker 3: you have self ficked the wounds, but then you look 2293 01:44:58,600 --> 01:45:01,200 Speaker 3: at Justin Herbert. He's another guy looking at upper echelon 2294 01:45:01,280 --> 01:45:04,639 Speaker 3: where if Jacobe Rissett put four hundred yards on you 2295 01:45:04,680 --> 01:45:07,479 Speaker 3: as an offense, what is doesn't Herbert gonna do? So 2296 01:45:07,720 --> 01:45:09,760 Speaker 3: you cannot allow I got to feel comfortable at all. 2297 01:45:09,960 --> 01:45:12,120 Speaker 2: The only team in the league with three wide outs 2298 01:45:12,160 --> 01:45:15,120 Speaker 2: over three hundred yards the Chargers. Quinton Johnston, one of 2299 01:45:15,120 --> 01:45:17,639 Speaker 2: those guys did get back to practice yesterday, so again 2300 01:45:17,680 --> 01:45:20,719 Speaker 2: that could test your secondary, which means your pass rush 2301 01:45:20,760 --> 01:45:23,439 Speaker 2: needs to help alleviate some of that stress. All right, 2302 01:45:23,479 --> 01:45:26,840 Speaker 2: ten minutes from now, Jason Hammer, it's Thursday. That means 2303 01:45:26,920 --> 01:45:29,120 Speaker 2: he'll talk Thursday Night football. What are we looking at 2304 01:45:29,160 --> 01:45:30,040 Speaker 2: from a betting standpoint? 2305 01:45:30,120 --> 01:45:30,280 Speaker 12: Night? 2306 01:45:30,280 --> 01:45:34,760 Speaker 2: Another one of those divisional games Bengals and Steelers. And 2307 01:45:34,800 --> 01:45:37,200 Speaker 2: I'm not mistaken, Mike Tomlins A record is weirdly like 2308 01:45:37,520 --> 01:45:40,400 Speaker 2: very bad on Thursday Night football. So we'll hit that 2309 01:45:40,439 --> 01:45:42,240 Speaker 2: with Hammer coming up in ten, Let's go ahead and 2310 01:45:42,320 --> 01:45:45,599 Speaker 2: check it down. All right, let's actually start pacer wise. 2311 01:45:45,600 --> 01:45:47,240 Speaker 2: We hit a lot of colts right there again their 2312 01:45:47,240 --> 01:45:51,080 Speaker 2: preseason finale tomorrow. They did play their starters again about 2313 01:45:51,080 --> 01:45:54,719 Speaker 2: twenty five minutes in last year's preseason finale. But James, 2314 01:45:54,760 --> 01:45:56,839 Speaker 2: I actually want to spend it in a different direction. 2315 01:45:56,960 --> 01:46:02,080 Speaker 2: Did you see yesterday Malcolm Brogden, retired former pacer who 2316 01:46:02,560 --> 01:46:05,320 Speaker 2: I thought was going to be, like, maybe an important 2317 01:46:05,320 --> 01:46:08,040 Speaker 2: bench guy for the Knicks. He decided to hang it 2318 01:46:08,120 --> 01:46:08,719 Speaker 2: up at. 2319 01:46:08,840 --> 01:46:11,240 Speaker 3: How old is he? Thirty two ish thirty three ish? 2320 01:46:11,400 --> 01:46:14,759 Speaker 3: Looking it up right now? He is thirty two, played 2321 01:46:14,760 --> 01:46:18,280 Speaker 3: at nine seasons in the NBA had a great career 2322 01:46:18,320 --> 01:46:20,240 Speaker 3: for a second round pick. One Rookie of the Year 2323 01:46:20,680 --> 01:46:22,400 Speaker 3: was he six Men of the Year with the Boston 2324 01:46:22,439 --> 01:46:25,240 Speaker 3: Celtics a couple of years ago and had his best 2325 01:46:25,320 --> 01:46:27,920 Speaker 3: year as far as your stats go with the Pacers. 2326 01:46:28,000 --> 01:46:29,439 Speaker 3: I believe when I covered him, I think he has 2327 01:46:29,439 --> 01:46:31,360 Speaker 3: like twenty one six and I want to say five 2328 01:46:31,479 --> 01:46:34,000 Speaker 3: or something like that. So he had a really solid career. 2329 01:46:34,160 --> 01:46:37,599 Speaker 3: And I'm not surprised though that he is walking away 2330 01:46:37,680 --> 01:46:40,320 Speaker 3: relatively early, because he always struck me as somebody who 2331 01:46:40,520 --> 01:46:42,800 Speaker 3: head interest outside of basketball. I know he's very big 2332 01:46:42,840 --> 01:46:45,120 Speaker 3: when it comes to like social justice and things of 2333 01:46:45,160 --> 01:46:47,679 Speaker 3: that nature. His family has a history in that world, 2334 01:46:47,760 --> 01:46:49,479 Speaker 3: and so look forward to whatever his nick chapter is. 2335 01:46:49,760 --> 01:46:52,320 Speaker 2: This probably says more about me than it does Malcolm Brogen. 2336 01:46:52,439 --> 01:46:54,439 Speaker 2: I weirdly didn't love watching him play. 2337 01:46:55,680 --> 01:46:57,760 Speaker 3: He had a herky, jerky, weird game. I don't think 2338 01:46:57,800 --> 01:47:01,439 Speaker 3: it was the most aesthetically pleasing style of play, but 2339 01:47:01,520 --> 01:47:04,400 Speaker 3: it was effective in the gatka who so in his shot, 2340 01:47:04,439 --> 01:47:07,320 Speaker 3: his form was also kind of unique. Great career for 2341 01:47:07,400 --> 01:47:09,200 Speaker 3: seventy forty ninety guy, I believe. 2342 01:47:08,920 --> 01:47:12,040 Speaker 2: For second round pick you are spot on with that. 2343 01:47:12,520 --> 01:47:16,120 Speaker 2: Speaking of basketball, exhibition slates underway. The Darren Devreese era 2344 01:47:16,200 --> 01:47:19,640 Speaker 2: coming up tomorrow. That is IU and Marion Butler and 2345 01:47:19,640 --> 01:47:21,599 Speaker 2: Notre Dame again. That'll be over on ninety two point 2346 01:47:21,720 --> 01:47:24,519 Speaker 2: seven for US. Some lot of connections there for Notre 2347 01:47:24,600 --> 01:47:27,160 Speaker 2: Dame coming back to Butler with Michael Shrewsbury and Brad 2348 01:47:27,160 --> 01:47:30,720 Speaker 2: Stevenson and Brady Stevens So at seven o'clock up there 2349 01:47:30,720 --> 01:47:35,320 Speaker 2: at Hinkle tomorrow, a last night Major League Baseball. So 2350 01:47:35,479 --> 01:47:38,759 Speaker 2: far here in the Championship Series, it has been all 2351 01:47:39,080 --> 01:47:44,040 Speaker 2: road teams. The Blue Jays all over the Mariners last 2352 01:47:44,160 --> 01:47:48,280 Speaker 2: night thirteen to four. We now will get both series 2353 01:47:48,320 --> 01:47:51,400 Speaker 2: starting back up again tonight, so we'll have two games. 2354 01:47:51,439 --> 01:47:53,760 Speaker 2: Dodgers Brewers will be the first one. Blue Jays and 2355 01:47:53,760 --> 01:47:56,960 Speaker 2: Mariners to follow. That is Max Scherzer and Luis Castillo 2356 01:47:57,400 --> 01:47:59,880 Speaker 2: in that game four. But again, so far all team 2357 01:48:00,400 --> 01:48:03,200 Speaker 2: have won. We'll see if that can team in LA 2358 01:48:03,439 --> 01:48:05,880 Speaker 2: for that one. James Boyd, are you gonna venture to 2359 01:48:05,920 --> 01:48:08,120 Speaker 2: a La Dodgers game while you're out there? 2360 01:48:08,320 --> 01:48:10,879 Speaker 3: No, I've heard that it's actually kind of a logistical 2361 01:48:10,960 --> 01:48:13,639 Speaker 3: nightmare to get anywhere when it comes to LA sports. 2362 01:48:13,720 --> 01:48:15,160 Speaker 3: So I'm like, I'll just deal with that when I 2363 01:48:15,200 --> 01:48:17,679 Speaker 3: have to get paid to go to the game. Speaking 2364 01:48:17,680 --> 01:48:20,000 Speaker 3: of events tonight, how about the Moe on Spike match 2365 01:48:20,040 --> 01:48:22,639 Speaker 3: over a gamebridge Field how sports court putting this on? 2366 01:48:23,040 --> 01:48:26,080 Speaker 2: That's I you and Purdue Big ten volleyball. For those 2367 01:48:26,120 --> 01:48:28,880 Speaker 2: that are unfamiliar, is like, whatever. 2368 01:48:28,680 --> 01:48:31,120 Speaker 3: Say spike match? I'm like, are we getting pitch forks out? 2369 01:48:31,200 --> 01:48:31,280 Speaker 11: Like? 2370 01:48:31,320 --> 01:48:33,920 Speaker 3: What's going on here? Are these gladiators? Well, I don't 2371 01:48:33,920 --> 01:48:36,120 Speaker 3: know the intensity level of Indiana, Purdue could be at 2372 01:48:36,160 --> 01:48:36,800 Speaker 3: that mark. 2373 01:48:36,840 --> 01:48:37,759 Speaker 1: Now, this is volleyball. 2374 01:48:37,800 --> 01:48:41,200 Speaker 2: A Purdue's program has had great, great history, especially here 2375 01:48:41,240 --> 01:48:45,200 Speaker 2: recently Indiana one of their best seasons in quite some time. 2376 01:48:45,960 --> 01:48:48,680 Speaker 2: So two I believe two ranked opponents here coming up 2377 01:48:49,120 --> 01:48:51,920 Speaker 2: tonight over at gamebridge Field House. So that should be 2378 01:48:52,439 --> 01:48:55,439 Speaker 2: a good crowd over there. The only other thing I 2379 01:48:55,439 --> 01:48:58,639 Speaker 2: was gonna mention again, that's starting five from Netflix. Tyres 2380 01:48:58,680 --> 01:49:03,000 Speaker 2: Haliburn one of the five players that will debut on 2381 01:49:03,040 --> 01:49:06,000 Speaker 2: Netflix today. It's eight episodes. I believe around forty five 2382 01:49:06,040 --> 01:49:09,760 Speaker 2: minutes each for those episodes. So you can watch that 2383 01:49:09,880 --> 01:49:13,760 Speaker 2: and of course college football this weekend if you are 2384 01:49:13,800 --> 01:49:18,080 Speaker 2: a local watcher of Purdue, Indiana Notre Dame, it's in 2385 01:49:18,120 --> 01:49:20,920 Speaker 2: that order if you would like on Western at noon. 2386 01:49:21,280 --> 01:49:24,000 Speaker 2: Vegas actually weirdly likes for doing this one. They're only 2387 01:49:24,040 --> 01:49:26,439 Speaker 2: a three and a half point underdog, and that is 2388 01:49:26,479 --> 01:49:29,479 Speaker 2: after Northwestern beat Penn State last week. 2389 01:49:29,560 --> 01:49:32,880 Speaker 3: IU is on Peacock. This is homecoming Michigan State. 2390 01:49:32,960 --> 01:49:36,120 Speaker 2: I guess as a slew of issues with their head 2391 01:49:36,160 --> 01:49:39,160 Speaker 2: coach and their quarterback situation right now. Indiana is a 2392 01:49:39,200 --> 01:49:43,439 Speaker 2: nearly a four touchdown favorite and elimination game in South 2393 01:49:43,479 --> 01:49:46,240 Speaker 2: Bend for Notre Dame. They have positioned themselves nicely after 2394 01:49:46,280 --> 01:49:47,880 Speaker 2: the zero to two start, but this is the one 2395 01:49:47,920 --> 01:49:52,000 Speaker 2: they have to have. It is the USC Trojans making 2396 01:49:52,040 --> 01:49:54,640 Speaker 2: the trek to South Bend, Notre Dame just north of 2397 01:49:54,680 --> 01:49:58,040 Speaker 2: a touchdown favorite in quite a big one there Where 2398 01:49:58,080 --> 01:50:01,320 Speaker 2: is game day?

I already 2438 01:51:38,960 --> 01:51:39,800 Speaker 1: got that, is what you're saying. 2439 01:51:39,920 --> 01:51:43,200 Speaker 11: Yes, you've already got the full experience. And let's be honest, 2440 01:51:43,280 --> 01:51:45,439 Speaker 11: last two weeks of the AI stuff have it worked. 2441 01:51:46,080 --> 01:51:49,120 Speaker 11: So let's just keep it straight up this week, man, 2442 01:51:49,360 --> 01:51:51,880 Speaker 11: and see if we can get these old dudes to 2443 01:51:51,920 --> 01:51:52,880 Speaker 11: make us some money tonight. 2444 01:51:52,920 --> 01:51:56,240 Speaker 2: Okay, so Thursday night tonight, we once again are intra 2445 01:51:56,320 --> 01:51:59,840 Speaker 2: division and Mike Tomlin and the Steelers are a four 2446 01:52:00,080 --> 01:52:04,880 Speaker 2: half point favorite at Cincinnati. Joe Flacco, of course, getting 2447 01:52:04,880 --> 01:52:08,360 Speaker 2: his second start for the Bengals, and weirdly, Mike Tomlin 2448 01:52:08,520 --> 01:52:10,600 Speaker 2: on the road on Thursday night. Football hammer has not 2449 01:52:10,720 --> 01:52:13,960 Speaker 2: been good, so I am very torn. I guess I 2450 01:52:14,000 --> 01:52:15,479 Speaker 2: initially saw four and a half and I thought that 2451 01:52:15,560 --> 01:52:18,559 Speaker 2: seems like a small line, But then you think about 2452 01:52:18,600 --> 01:52:21,000 Speaker 2: what road or what divisional games have been on Thursday Night. 2453 01:52:20,920 --> 01:52:23,360 Speaker 11: Football this year, and the underdogs look pretty good. Right, 2454 01:52:23,840 --> 01:52:27,920 Speaker 11: So here's my situation with tonight. You're right, Tomlin's record 2455 01:52:27,920 --> 01:52:31,000 Speaker 11: on Thursday stinks. But you know what else stinks the 2456 01:52:31,040 --> 01:52:34,800 Speaker 11: Cincinnati defense. So I'm trying to figure out another way 2457 01:52:34,800 --> 01:52:37,040 Speaker 11: to beat the book tonight. So let's look at this total. 2458 01:52:37,120 --> 01:52:39,679 Speaker 11: The over under sitting at forty four. That's the number 2459 01:52:39,680 --> 01:52:43,560 Speaker 11: that I see eight of the bengals last nine home games. 2460 01:52:43,560 --> 01:52:44,360 Speaker 1: Over the total. 2461 01:52:44,680 --> 01:52:46,720 Speaker 11: And last week, if you watched any of that Cincinnati 2462 01:52:46,800 --> 01:52:49,479 Speaker 11: in Green Bay game, it seems like old man Flacco 2463 01:52:49,640 --> 01:52:52,479 Speaker 11: finally got Jamar Chase. The football got him in the 2464 01:52:52,520 --> 01:52:55,959 Speaker 11: mix a little bits think had like over ninety yards receiving, 2465 01:52:56,040 --> 01:52:59,320 Speaker 11: got him in the end zone. Meanwhile, the Bengals defense 2466 01:53:00,160 --> 01:53:03,599 Speaker 11: second and sack rate. They allow seven point nine yards 2467 01:53:03,640 --> 01:53:06,000 Speaker 11: per pass, which is good for twenty eighth in the league. 2468 01:53:06,360 --> 01:53:10,439 Speaker 11: In the red zone, they're awful. I think they're allowing 2469 01:53:10,439 --> 01:53:14,280 Speaker 11: a touchdown seventy one point four to three percent of 2470 01:53:14,320 --> 01:53:18,759 Speaker 11: the time. That's good for thirtieth in the NFL. Long story, short, man, 2471 01:53:18,880 --> 01:53:21,320 Speaker 11: I don't see a lot of defense being played out 2472 01:53:21,360 --> 01:53:27,040 Speaker 11: here tonight. If you can get around twenty from Cincinnati tonight. 2473 01:53:27,520 --> 01:53:29,680 Speaker 11: I think you can get an over and that's what 2474 01:53:29,720 --> 01:53:32,960 Speaker 11: we're looking at. You can also get Cincinnati's team total 2475 01:53:33,080 --> 01:53:35,920 Speaker 11: over nineteen and a half, but I'm going full game, 2476 01:53:36,360 --> 01:53:39,120 Speaker 11: full total over forty four tonight. 2477 01:53:39,200 --> 01:53:42,040 Speaker 2: I always love rooting for points on Thursday Night before 2478 01:53:42,040 --> 01:53:46,320 Speaker 2: we transition to anything else, any props, any individual player, props, 2479 01:53:46,320 --> 01:53:48,400 Speaker 2: anything else that you want to sprinkle tonight. 2480 01:53:48,760 --> 01:53:52,360 Speaker 11: So let's go with Joe Flacco over thirty six and 2481 01:53:52,439 --> 01:53:55,679 Speaker 11: a half attempts. This is going to be the old 2482 01:53:55,720 --> 01:53:57,360 Speaker 11: man at the bachelor party theory. 2483 01:53:57,439 --> 01:53:58,519 Speaker 1: Now follow me on this. 2484 01:53:58,560 --> 01:54:01,439 Speaker 3: Okay, when you're at a bad right, I love the 2485 01:54:01,479 --> 01:54:01,920 Speaker 3: start to this. 2486 01:54:02,600 --> 01:54:04,240 Speaker 11: When you're at a bachelor party and you're with your 2487 01:54:04,280 --> 01:54:07,280 Speaker 11: buddies and it's your you know, frat bros and maybe 2488 01:54:07,280 --> 01:54:09,800 Speaker 11: people you went to high school with. Okay, fine, they're 2489 01:54:09,840 --> 01:54:10,760 Speaker 11: ready to have a good time. 2490 01:54:11,080 --> 01:54:12,920 Speaker 1: But the person that's getting loose the. 2491 01:54:12,800 --> 01:54:15,880 Speaker 11: Most is the old guy there because that's his night out, 2492 01:54:16,240 --> 01:54:19,360 Speaker 11: like the dad, the father in law, he's. 2493 01:54:19,240 --> 01:54:21,120 Speaker 3: Wearing the wedding ring or did he take the wedding 2494 01:54:21,160 --> 01:54:21,880 Speaker 3: ring off? Right? 2495 01:54:22,160 --> 01:54:25,240 Speaker 11: They're the ones buying the shots, buying the dances. This 2496 01:54:25,400 --> 01:54:27,720 Speaker 11: is their night out. And this brings us to Joe 2497 01:54:27,760 --> 01:54:30,360 Speaker 11: Flacco tonight. Aaron Rodgers is old, but he gets on 2498 01:54:30,439 --> 01:54:33,680 Speaker 11: TV all the time. Flacco probably didn't think what he'd 2499 01:54:33,720 --> 01:54:36,040 Speaker 11: be in the league this year and two, starting on 2500 01:54:36,160 --> 01:54:38,960 Speaker 11: national television. So this is the old man at the 2501 01:54:39,000 --> 01:54:41,720 Speaker 11: bachelor party theory tonight. He's gonna sling it around the 2502 01:54:41,800 --> 01:54:44,240 Speaker 11: yard thirty six and a half attempts. What are the 2503 01:54:44,240 --> 01:54:47,120 Speaker 11: Bengals gonna do run the football tonight, No, they're gonna 2504 01:54:47,160 --> 01:54:49,160 Speaker 11: throw it if they have any chance at all to 2505 01:54:49,280 --> 01:54:52,800 Speaker 11: perform at home on TV. The old Man's gonna check 2506 01:54:52,880 --> 01:54:55,640 Speaker 11: down and throw that thing around the yard. So we're 2507 01:54:55,640 --> 01:54:58,080 Speaker 11: going to Flacco over thirty six and a half. And 2508 01:54:58,120 --> 01:55:00,200 Speaker 11: on the other side, just because we always liked have 2509 01:55:00,240 --> 01:55:03,120 Speaker 11: something to watch when it's on screen with the Steelers 2510 01:55:03,200 --> 01:55:08,240 Speaker 11: DK Metcalf, we're going to go over his total tonight. 2511 01:55:08,440 --> 01:55:11,160 Speaker 11: I'm seeing sixty six and a half in spots here 2512 01:55:11,680 --> 01:55:14,720 Speaker 11: over at sixty six and a half. Again, Bengals defense 2513 01:55:14,960 --> 01:55:18,520 Speaker 11: thinks twenty ninth and drop back success. Aaron Rodgers is 2514 01:55:18,520 --> 01:55:21,200 Speaker 11: gonna have time, and they're dealing with some injuries. I 2515 01:55:21,240 --> 01:55:24,160 Speaker 11: think Austin's still out and banged up for them. So 2516 01:55:24,400 --> 01:55:26,000 Speaker 11: if it's not going to be a running back or 2517 01:55:26,080 --> 01:55:28,480 Speaker 11: multiple tight ends catching the ball. Where's it gonna go. 2518 01:55:28,760 --> 01:55:30,880 Speaker 11: I think it's gonna go to DK Metcalf and we're 2519 01:55:30,880 --> 01:55:32,280 Speaker 11: gonna go over that total as well. 2520 01:55:32,400 --> 01:55:34,960 Speaker 3: The old being gay game, we should call this with 2521 01:55:35,000 --> 01:55:37,200 Speaker 3: these two relics of quarterbacks. 2522 01:55:37,200 --> 01:55:39,480 Speaker 1: Hey, and maybe this is gonna be good. Like when 2523 01:55:39,520 --> 01:55:40,600 Speaker 1: you guys were younger. 2524 01:55:40,600 --> 01:55:42,160 Speaker 11: I don't know how much ball you guys played in 2525 01:55:42,160 --> 01:55:44,320 Speaker 11: the park these days, but when I was growing up, 2526 01:55:44,360 --> 01:55:46,360 Speaker 11: we used to play ball at the park in Beach Grove, 2527 01:55:46,480 --> 01:55:48,800 Speaker 11: right and courts be a run all day and you 2528 01:55:48,840 --> 01:55:51,120 Speaker 11: could have a group of young cats that were pretty good. 2529 01:55:51,480 --> 01:55:53,920 Speaker 11: But you get a group of motivated old dudes out there, 2530 01:55:54,040 --> 01:55:54,680 Speaker 11: you're not getting. 2531 01:55:55,600 --> 01:55:57,680 Speaker 1: No, they're not getting the old dudes off the court. 2532 01:55:58,080 --> 01:56:03,680 Speaker 3: They're back dorn Y, Yeah, exactly, they're running motion off 2533 01:56:03,720 --> 01:56:08,000 Speaker 3: this is you just hit another fifteen footer from the baseline. Now, 2534 01:56:08,040 --> 01:56:09,480 Speaker 3: I had a guy my dad used to play with. 2535 01:56:09,520 --> 01:56:10,840 Speaker 3: He's taking me out there. When I was a kid 2536 01:56:10,880 --> 01:56:13,120 Speaker 3: growing up, play with him and his his buddy used 2537 01:56:13,120 --> 01:56:17,440 Speaker 3: to get tougher, I guess. And this dude, we call 2538 01:56:17,520 --> 01:56:19,120 Speaker 3: him old school. He always get the ball with the 2539 01:56:19,120 --> 01:56:21,040 Speaker 3: post and every get a guy like his hip, he'd 2540 01:56:21,040 --> 01:56:22,880 Speaker 3: be like, this is the metal lock, right, here's the 2541 01:56:22,880 --> 01:56:26,280 Speaker 3: metal lock. And you were in jail and he was 2542 01:56:26,320 --> 01:56:28,880 Speaker 3: throwing that hook shot and you were dead anyway, he 2543 01:56:28,960 --> 01:56:31,880 Speaker 3: had a shirt off. It was real sweating. Nobody wanted 2544 01:56:31,920 --> 01:56:34,680 Speaker 3: to play d hair on the back. 2545 01:56:36,720 --> 01:56:39,920 Speaker 2: Okay, what else this weekend? If you would like to 2546 01:56:40,000 --> 01:56:43,400 Speaker 2: dabble anything collegiately, let us know. Colts Chargers is one 2547 01:56:43,400 --> 01:56:46,320 Speaker 2: of the smallest spreads of the weekend. The Colts are 2548 01:56:46,320 --> 01:56:48,200 Speaker 2: a one and a half point underdog. That line has 2549 01:56:48,240 --> 01:56:51,680 Speaker 2: stayed pretty consistent throughout the week. So what else tickles 2550 01:56:51,720 --> 01:56:51,960 Speaker 2: you hear? 2551 01:56:52,040 --> 01:56:54,200 Speaker 11: Hammer first thing that jumped out to me in that 2552 01:56:54,240 --> 01:56:58,240 Speaker 11: Colts game was Daniel Jones rushing yards over under sixteen 2553 01:56:58,280 --> 01:57:02,120 Speaker 11: and a half. Uh, Like, the Chargers have a pretty 2554 01:57:02,160 --> 01:57:03,880 Speaker 11: good chance of winning this game. I hate saying that 2555 01:57:03,920 --> 01:57:05,920 Speaker 11: because I think the Colts are just as good and 2556 01:57:05,960 --> 01:57:08,000 Speaker 11: I'm not in love with Justin Herbert the way a 2557 01:57:08,000 --> 01:57:10,720 Speaker 11: lot of people are. But I think Daniel Jones, You're 2558 01:57:10,800 --> 01:57:13,960 Speaker 11: just a couple broken plays away from getting this total. 2559 01:57:14,000 --> 01:57:16,880 Speaker 11: This seems low for Danny dimes over sixteen and a 2560 01:57:16,920 --> 01:57:20,720 Speaker 11: half rushing yards And because I'm just a ridiculous, Homer. 2561 01:57:20,760 --> 01:57:23,640 Speaker 11: It's a big weekend in our house. The third Saturday 2562 01:57:23,640 --> 01:57:27,040 Speaker 11: in October. Tennessee and Bama. I went to the Tennessee 2563 01:57:27,080 --> 01:57:31,120 Speaker 11: game there a year ago. This week it's in Tusca Loosa. 2564 01:57:32,000 --> 01:57:32,400 Speaker 1: Look at it. 2565 01:57:32,480 --> 01:57:35,360 Speaker 11: The over in that one too last year was like 2566 01:57:35,400 --> 01:57:38,040 Speaker 11: the exception to the rules. Just a gross ugly game. 2567 01:57:38,480 --> 01:57:41,200 Speaker 11: But Nico didn't play really well at all for Tennessee 2568 01:57:41,280 --> 01:57:44,360 Speaker 11: when he was there. Tennessee in nine of the last 2569 01:57:44,400 --> 01:57:48,200 Speaker 11: ten they've gone over, and historically these teams put up 2570 01:57:48,240 --> 01:57:50,880 Speaker 11: some big points against each other. Go back to that 2571 01:57:50,960 --> 01:57:54,879 Speaker 11: shootout a couple of years ago Hindon Hooker against Bama squad. 2572 01:57:55,720 --> 01:57:57,920 Speaker 11: That total was cashed I think at halftime. So we're 2573 01:57:57,920 --> 01:58:01,080 Speaker 11: gonna ride the lightning here over fifty eight and a 2574 01:58:01,120 --> 01:58:02,280 Speaker 11: half with Tennessee and. 2575 01:58:02,240 --> 01:58:04,200 Speaker 1: Bama degenerates next door. 2576 01:58:04,280 --> 01:58:07,280 Speaker 2: Or two podcasts each week, one NFL on College Football, 2577 01:58:07,440 --> 01:58:10,720 Speaker 2: Jason Hammer, Rob Kendall, you can find them there and 2578 01:58:10,720 --> 01:58:13,720 Speaker 2: of course over on WIBC, Hammer and Nigel and you 2579 01:58:13,800 --> 01:58:16,440 Speaker 2: just got back from oh Man. 2580 01:58:16,560 --> 01:58:22,000 Speaker 11: It was a Grand Teton National Park, Yellowstone National Park. 2581 01:58:22,200 --> 01:58:24,920 Speaker 11: We stayed in Jackson, Wyoming. It's a little area they 2582 01:58:24,920 --> 01:58:25,920 Speaker 11: called Jackson Hole. 2583 01:58:26,040 --> 01:58:26,360 Speaker 1: Right there. 2584 01:58:26,360 --> 01:58:28,760 Speaker 11: That's the name of the airport you fly into. I 2585 01:58:28,800 --> 01:58:30,480 Speaker 11: had never been to that part of the country in 2586 01:58:30,520 --> 01:58:33,360 Speaker 11: my entire life. Usually if I'm going west, I'm going 2587 01:58:33,360 --> 01:58:36,680 Speaker 11: to Vegas or something. But man, this was beautiful. Like 2588 01:58:36,720 --> 01:58:38,839 Speaker 11: I got in touch with my inner Beech Grove hillbilly 2589 01:58:38,880 --> 01:58:42,520 Speaker 11: out there. Man, everywhere you look there's like a scenic 2590 01:58:42,720 --> 01:58:45,520 Speaker 11: mountain view.

Harrison Ford's got 2607 01:59:27,920 --> 01:59:32,040 Speaker 11: a big ranch out there? Who else does? Sandra Bullock 2608 01:59:32,120 --> 01:59:35,360 Speaker 11: has a big ranch, Nicky six of Motley Crue, And 2609 01:59:35,440 --> 01:59:38,080 Speaker 11: I believe Kanye West has a residents. 2610 01:59:37,560 --> 01:59:38,440 Speaker 1: Somewhere out there. 2611 01:59:38,480 --> 01:59:42,760 Speaker 11: And uh, from that one, we did not make it 2612 01:59:42,760 --> 01:59:44,880 Speaker 11: to Cassa de Kanye out there. 2613 01:59:45,160 --> 01:59:47,160 Speaker 2: If he's got winners behind that door, that's all we're 2614 01:59:47,160 --> 01:59:50,160 Speaker 2: looking for tonight, and we'll knock on the door. 2615 01:59:50,360 --> 01:59:53,200 Speaker 3: We do have a question about one of the bets 2616 01:59:53,200 --> 01:59:56,200 Speaker 3: you through out there, And listener, Aaron through the text 2617 01:59:56,200 --> 01:59:58,920 Speaker 3: line is saying, do sackyards go against your rush total? 2618 01:59:59,200 --> 02:00:01,560 Speaker 3: Is you talking Aboutdaniel Jones when it comes to his 2619 02:00:01,640 --> 02:00:02,680 Speaker 3: rush yards on Sunday? 2620 02:00:02,880 --> 02:00:06,760 Speaker 1: No, but Neil downs do. So if you've got like. 2621 02:00:07,000 --> 02:00:09,040 Speaker 3: On playing with fire there, you know, you know Sam 2622 02:00:09,080 --> 02:00:11,000 Speaker 3: Sticking will love him a little Neil down. 2623 02:00:10,800 --> 02:00:14,360 Speaker 2: There, and there's been some bad beats before them. Yeah, absolutely, 2624 02:00:14,400 --> 02:00:16,480 Speaker 2: which is different than college. We should point out, Aaron, 2625 02:00:16,600 --> 02:00:19,560 Speaker 2: in college, correct if I'm wrong. Hammer sackyards I believe 2626 02:00:19,680 --> 02:00:22,200 Speaker 2: do count against your rushing total in the NFL, though 2627 02:00:22,200 --> 02:00:22,800 Speaker 2: they do not. 2628 02:00:23,080 --> 02:00:25,760 Speaker 11: Correct, So Daniel Jones gets sacked, that doesn't go against 2629 02:00:25,800 --> 02:00:27,880 Speaker 11: his rushing total. But if the Colts win this thing 2630 02:00:27,920 --> 02:00:30,840 Speaker 11: and they're milking the clock. That minus two minus two 2631 02:00:30,920 --> 02:00:32,840 Speaker 11: minus two catches up to you at the very end 2632 02:00:32,840 --> 02:00:33,320 Speaker 11: and bites you. 2633 02:00:33,600 --> 02:00:36,000 Speaker 2: That's the definition of a bad beat. Okay, Hammer's got 2634 02:00:36,000 --> 02:00:38,280 Speaker 2: this tonight. He loves the over, so we're cheering for 2635 02:00:38,320 --> 02:00:42,360 Speaker 2: points tonight, Steelers Bengals.

It's one of 2637 02:00:44,960 --> 02:00:47,640 Speaker 2: my favorite analogies. You've given us thirty six and a 2638 02:00:47,680 --> 02:00:51,040 Speaker 2: half pass attempts for Joe Flacco and DK Metcalf, who's 2639 02:00:51,040 --> 02:00:53,680 Speaker 2: had some big plays with Aaron Rodgers this year. Over 2640 02:00:53,760 --> 02:00:56,480 Speaker 2: on those receiving yards sixty six and a half, and you, 2641 02:00:56,600 --> 02:00:58,520 Speaker 2: if you would like to sprinkle a little Colt's action. 2642 02:00:59,000 --> 02:01:02,640 Speaker 2: He's given you the Dan Jones rushing yards Daniel Jones 2643 02:01:02,680 --> 02:01:04,920 Speaker 2: last week, James Boyd, he had well, he had a 2644 02:01:04,960 --> 02:01:07,360 Speaker 2: touchdown run, of course, but he had that big scramble 2645 02:01:07,400 --> 02:01:09,120 Speaker 2: doing nite one of those scoring drives there late. 2646 02:01:09,320 --> 02:01:12,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I believe he ran for seventeen yards on the 2647 02:01:12,120 --> 02:01:14,880 Speaker 3: second to last drive to kind of set up those 2648 02:01:15,240 --> 02:01:18,600 Speaker 3: last two scoring drives.

I don't think they were sending 2680 02:02:34,280 --> 02:02:36,480 Speaker 2: the old private bird for old Brett Rippin. I think 2681 02:02:36,480 --> 02:02:38,920 Speaker 2: he might have been traveling old commercially. 2682 02:02:39,040 --> 02:02:42,040 Speaker 3: That might be a dream to be a professional athlete. 2683 02:02:42,040 --> 02:02:44,240 Speaker 3: No way to recognizes it has to be pretty cool. 2684 02:02:44,240 --> 02:02:46,800 Speaker 3: But yeah, we'll catch up with Brett Rippon later today. 2685 02:02:46,960 --> 02:02:50,760 Speaker 3: Is uncle Mark was the backup for Colt's legend Payon 2686 02:02:50,760 --> 02:02:52,720 Speaker 3: Manning back of two thousand and one, and his uncle 2687 02:02:52,800 --> 02:02:54,800 Speaker 3: was also a Super Bowl MVP. So a lot of 2688 02:02:54,800 --> 02:02:57,760 Speaker 3: football in that family. But for our purposes, we want 2689 02:02:57,760 --> 02:03:00,720 Speaker 3: to know how he's gonna get integrated with the Colts. 2690 02:03:00,760 --> 02:03:04,560 Speaker 3: In was briefly teammates with Daniel Jones last year in Minnesota. 2691 02:03:04,680 --> 02:03:07,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, third different offense for Brett Rippon at about a 2692 02:03:07,200 --> 02:03:09,920 Speaker 2: month and a half. Was with Minnesota this offseason and 2693 02:03:09,960 --> 02:03:13,040 Speaker 2: then was with Cincinnati at the start this year. He 2694 02:03:13,240 --> 02:03:16,360 Speaker 2: was actually the backup for Jake Browning for a couple 2695 02:03:16,360 --> 02:03:18,440 Speaker 2: of games there once Joe Burrow got hurt, and then 2696 02:03:18,440 --> 02:03:21,280 Speaker 2: when they traded for Joe Flacco a week ago Tuesday, 2697 02:03:21,280 --> 02:03:24,919 Speaker 2: that's when they cut ripping. So just to refresh everybody 2698 02:03:24,920 --> 02:03:27,720 Speaker 2: on the Colts plane at quarterback this week, behind Daniel Jones, 2699 02:03:27,720 --> 02:03:29,760 Speaker 2: it'll be Riley Leonard. He will be the backup one 2700 02:03:29,800 --> 02:03:33,560 Speaker 2: play away, and then the assumption is Brett Rippen will 2701 02:03:33,600 --> 02:03:36,920 Speaker 2: be the emergency third quarterback. And again that third quarterback 2702 02:03:36,960 --> 02:03:39,600 Speaker 2: has got to have injuries to the first and second 2703 02:03:39,680 --> 02:03:41,000 Speaker 2: guy in order. 2704 02:03:40,840 --> 02:03:41,400 Speaker 3: To get in the game. 2705 02:03:41,440 --> 02:03:43,280 Speaker 2: And you know, I was listening to Shane Stike and 2706 02:03:43,360 --> 02:03:45,840 Speaker 2: yesterday it was kind of funny. The only real Colts 2707 02:03:45,880 --> 02:03:48,840 Speaker 2: connection it appeared to Brett Rippen was you mentioned Daniel 2708 02:03:48,880 --> 02:03:51,600 Speaker 2: Jones two months together in Minnesota. Shane's like, oh yeah, 2709 02:03:51,600 --> 02:03:53,840 Speaker 2: my little brother was the ball boy of Boise State 2710 02:03:54,440 --> 02:03:56,080 Speaker 2: when Brett Rippon was in college. 2711 02:03:56,200 --> 02:03:57,640 Speaker 3: There's really no Colts overlapping. 2712 02:03:57,680 --> 02:03:59,280 Speaker 2: Doesn't sound if they had worked him out even in 2713 02:03:59,320 --> 02:03:59,800 Speaker 2: the offseason. 2714 02:04:00,400 --> 02:04:03,000 Speaker 3: No, from what I understand, and this is a joke, 2715 02:04:03,520 --> 02:04:06,480 Speaker 3: I would think that it went something like this, we 2716 02:04:06,520 --> 02:04:11,000 Speaker 3: brought in four quarterbacks, eh, not really feeling those guys. Hey, Daniel, 2717 02:04:11,080 --> 02:04:12,880 Speaker 3: who was that guy you played with last year? You 2718 02:04:12,880 --> 02:04:14,720 Speaker 3: said it was kind of okay, Yeah, we'll bring him in. 2719 02:04:14,720 --> 02:04:16,560 Speaker 3: All right, sounds good. That's what happened. 2720 02:04:16,640 --> 02:04:18,720 Speaker 2: Daniel Jones has gotten to the position. He's been so 2721 02:04:18,760 --> 02:04:21,120 Speaker 2: good that now they listened to him for personnel moves. 2722 02:04:21,320 --> 02:04:23,080 Speaker 3: I mean, have you seen the guy play football this year? 2723 02:04:23,080 --> 02:04:24,680 Speaker 3: I listened to a lot of That's when you know 2724 02:04:24,720 --> 02:04:26,360 Speaker 3: you've made it as a quarterback. 2725 02:04:26,480 --> 02:04:26,640 Speaker 4: Yeah. 2726 02:04:26,680 --> 02:04:29,120 Speaker 3: I did think it was interesting though. You asked him 2727 02:04:29,480 --> 02:04:35,960 Speaker 3: about being in the MVP conversation, and I was surprised 2728 02:04:36,000 --> 02:04:39,400 Speaker 3: to find out and really watch this unfold. Daniel Jones 2729 02:04:39,480 --> 02:04:43,320 Speaker 3: immediately started jumping up and down. He was like, yes, yes, 2730 02:04:43,360 --> 02:04:45,280 Speaker 3: it's exactly what I dreamed of. I wanted to be 2731 02:04:45,280 --> 02:04:47,120 Speaker 3: in NVB conversations. I want to be asked about it 2732 02:04:47,120 --> 02:04:50,600 Speaker 3: by Kevin Bowen. But in reality that was not the case. 2733 02:04:51,160 --> 02:04:53,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know asking that, I really don't even know 2734 02:04:53,640 --> 02:04:55,160 Speaker 2: why I asked it. It was one of those Yeah, I 2735 02:04:55,160 --> 02:04:56,960 Speaker 2: feel like I haven't asked Daniel Jones a question here 2736 02:04:57,000 --> 02:04:59,280 Speaker 2: in a few weeks, so might as well. And that 2737 02:04:59,360 --> 02:05:01,040 Speaker 2: was a very Dangel Jones type answer. 2738 02:05:01,040 --> 02:05:01,640 Speaker 3: Someone said they. 2739 02:05:01,560 --> 02:05:04,960 Speaker 2: Spotted him in a Fat Dance which is near our 2740 02:05:05,000 --> 02:05:06,320 Speaker 2: house earlier this this week. 2741 02:05:06,360 --> 02:05:08,040 Speaker 3: I'm a big Fat Dance fan.

Routine for the Colts 2760 02:05:43,920 --> 02:05:46,360 Speaker 2: will be again their second practice of the week today. 2761 02:05:47,120 --> 02:05:51,920 Speaker 2: Javariusward and Josh Downs both in concussion protocol, so those 2762 02:05:51,960 --> 02:05:55,680 Speaker 2: will be the two definite names to keep an eye 2763 02:05:55,680 --> 02:05:59,960 Speaker 2: on here as the Colts get back to practice Thursday. Night, 2764 02:06:00,080 --> 02:06:02,640 Speaker 2: will you boys Thursday night football it up?

I 2781 02:06:50,200 --> 02:06:52,560 Speaker 3: say every week, I'm not watching that game and it's on. 2782 02:06:52,760 --> 02:06:54,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, Giants Eagles last week turned out to 2783 02:06:54,520 --> 02:06:56,480 Speaker 2: be a game no one really saw coming in terms 2784 02:06:56,520 --> 02:07:00,000 Speaker 2: of the result on that and the Cults do play 2785 02:07:00,080 --> 02:07:02,200 Speaker 2: the Steelers here upcoming in a few weeks, so you know, 2786 02:07:02,200 --> 02:07:05,400 Speaker 2: It's always nice when you know there's a game slotted 2787 02:07:05,400 --> 02:07:08,000 Speaker 2: away from the Colts, I can watch a Colt's opponent, 2788 02:07:08,120 --> 02:07:09,960 Speaker 2: So yeah, I'll probably dabble in a little bit of both. 2789 02:07:10,000 --> 02:07:12,160 Speaker 2: Shout out to everybody going out to Gamebridge Field House again, 2790 02:07:12,200 --> 02:07:15,400 Speaker 2: that moan on Spike match tonight that is Bringis and 2791 02:07:15,960 --> 02:07:20,400 Speaker 2: you volleyball.
