1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,920
Speaker 1: Good morning everyone, and welcome into what we hope will

2
00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: be day one of whatever quarterback hereon we're about to

3
00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:09,639
Speaker 1: enter for the Indianapolis Colts. Good morning, Kevin Bowen, Good morning,

4
00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:13,280
Speaker 1: James Boyd, Good morning, Mark Dydon. We are off been running.

5
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:15,920
Speaker 1: There was lots of off field news to talk about

6
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:18,080
Speaker 1: yesterday with the Indianapolis Colts, and we'll get to all

7
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:20,680
Speaker 1: of that, but everyone still wants to know will we

8
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:23,760
Speaker 1: or will we not get a decision on quarterback number

9
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 1: one for the Indianapolis Colts later today when Shane Stiken

10
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 1: meets the media. He's close. Is the last we heard

11
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:30,920
Speaker 1: on Sunday. James.

12
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 2: I think we get a decision today when we walk

13
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 2: in there, and we will certainly have to ask for it.

14
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:40,879
Speaker 2: I think perhaps, But I do think if you made

15
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:42,479
Speaker 2: a decision, you should just come out and say it.

16
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:44,280
Speaker 3: And I'm trying to think back Kevin of it.

17
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 2: The last few times they made quarterback decisions, Shane has

18
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 2: usually come right out and made the announcement and then

19
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:52,559
Speaker 2: we'll be able to follow up, so it's not as

20
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 2: something we have to pry out of him. I don't

21
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 2: think it should be that way, mainly because if you

22
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,360
Speaker 2: choose a quarterback. You're proud of that decision and make

23
00:00:59,360 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 2: it public.

24
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I should also rack my brain a little bit,

25
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 4: I guess, said Anthony Richardson, maybe be benching or re

26
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:09,120
Speaker 4: entering in the starting lineup. They all run together at

27
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,679
Speaker 4: this point, but yeah, eleven fifteen today, Shane Styche will

28
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 4: meet the medium again. The Colts on a regular season

29
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 4: type of schedule this week with both tells.

30
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:18,640
Speaker 1: By the way, ooh, we gotta tell what the tell

31
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 1: will be.

32
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 2: Remember when they re announced that Anthony was a starter

33
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 2: and the entire room was full of people that are

34
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 2: normally never in there. I think that's usually my tell,

35
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 2: like some big news is coming, because when I walk

36
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,759
Speaker 2: in the room and there's you guys, who I love.

37
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:34,320
Speaker 3: But when I go in there.

38
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 2: And there's just you know, maybe three or four Colts

39
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 2: cameras that are more present than normal, and a few

40
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:42,759
Speaker 2: other people that I see around the building that are

41
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 2: normally not there for day to day.

42
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 4: You know, im mediately going to be in the back

43
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 4: of the room.

44
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 2: No, I think it's Carly, but a few other people

45
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 2: that we know around the building, Kevin, you know what

46
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 2: I'm talking about. When they show up, I'm like, Okay,

47
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 2: this must be a little bit different.

48
00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 4: Granted we haven't been in that building in quite a

49
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 4: while for a media availability. So again, regular season type

50
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 4: of schedule for the Coltal practice today, tomorrow and Thursday.

51
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 4: We still get to watch practice, but no longer the

52
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 4: full on training camp mode. I think, you know, Okay,

53
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:14,359
Speaker 4: why would he do it today? You know, like if

54
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 4: we want to get into that forklack convenience again, there

55
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 4: is like, what do you mean? I do think there

56
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 4: is a regular season element of this week, and so

57
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 4: there's a little bit of a hey, if we're going

58
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 4: to dress rehearsal it up, we owe it to our

59
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 4: team to have them know, Hey, when we come out

60
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 4: here for three straight days of practice, like the regular season,

61
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,359
Speaker 4: this is going to be your starting quarterback. Next week,

62
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 4: you'll transition to Miami specific prep. So I think that's

63
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 4: a little bit behind the why of it potentially happening

64
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:44,240
Speaker 4: here later this morning.

65
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, and to your point to going a little bit further,

66
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: you name a starting quarterback today and with the first

67
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: kind of you start to get into the regular week

68
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 1: work week for the Colts over there, somebody starts to

69
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: get a lot more reps as a starting quarterback too,

70
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 1: And that's one thing I think would be important to

71
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 1: a head coach at this point in time. I'd like

72
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 1: to have one preseason week of real prep for QB

73
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 1: one to kind of get going into the season.

74
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 2: James, especially if I mean they'll have the other week

75
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 2: off in between the finale of the preseason and the

76
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 2: regular season opener. However, to your point, Jffka, I think

77
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:19,520
Speaker 2: you do want to kind of shift the mindset of

78
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 2: the team and say, here's our guy, here's who we're

79
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 2: rolling with, and here is why we believe in this person.

80
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 2: And so I do expect to do a little bit

81
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:31,799
Speaker 2: of work today. And you know, as the professional I am, Kevin,

82
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 2: I think you are the same.

83
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 3: Ilk. You probably have both stories written because that's what

84
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 3: I have.

85
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 4: It's a little.

86
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 3: Sneak peek there for those behind the scenes. I used

87
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 3: to always wonder, when I was not a reporter like man,

88
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 3: how they get that story out so fast after this

89
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 3: person got fired or died or you know, quarterback decisions.

90
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 3: And now I know you just do double the work.

91
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 3: So yesterday I spent a little time prepping a couple

92
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 3: of different angles.

93
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 4: There waiting for the old publish right there you go,

94
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 4: that's what.

95
00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 1: So what time is Strane meeting to be leave?

96
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 4: I probably need to double check that, but yes, that

97
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 4: will happen later today.

98
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 1: All right, we'll look forward to that. As many times

99
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 1: as I refreshed as much social media and news as

100
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 1: I could. Did we get any clarity on Sophie Cunningham yesterday?

101
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:15,320
Speaker 1: I don't.

102
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,719
Speaker 4: People were off, I believe yesterday and I thought they

103
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 4: might say something. I think they're off again today. Yeah,

104
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:22,839
Speaker 4: they have come out with press releases. I think the

105
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 4: Sydney Colson and r. A. McDonald's situation, they did come

106
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 4: out with results. I don't know. No news is good news.

107
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 4: Maybe I'm you know, grasping at something right there. But honestly,

108
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 4: we've had these two questions for a while now. Who

109
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,039
Speaker 4: will be the cold starting quarterback in twenty twenty five

110
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 4: and when will Caitlin Clark get back? And we could

111
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 4: emphasis on could get answers to those two questions potentially

112
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 4: in the next two days Richardson. Of course, Jones, you

113
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,480
Speaker 4: know that could play out today. Fever get back to

114
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 4: practice tomorrow. As we talked to Tony East yesterday about it,

115
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 4: could that be a return date or at least more

116
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:04,279
Speaker 4: clarity on the Caitlin Clark timetable, as the regular season

117
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 4: is three weeks away from ending here, so uh again,

118
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 4: not her shattering news I think on the Caitlin Clark

119
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,039
Speaker 4: front by any means coming tomorrow. But you know, a

120
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 4: return to practice is obviously a huge step forward in

121
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 4: her playing basketball again this season.

122
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 1: Well, we certainly want to see her as soon as possibly,

123
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 1: certainly hope that Sweppy Cunningham is going to be okay.

124
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 1: And you know, Stephanie White has been opening up about

125
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 1: just the resiliency of this group and no matter what

126
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:34,840
Speaker 1: seems to happen. And yeah, she talks to Jake, So

127
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:37,920
Speaker 1: every Tuesday, right, that's my that's my understanding. That's what

128
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,600
Speaker 1: I've heard so far every Tuesday. So when I say

129
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 1: that's what I've heard, I've heard it on the air

130
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 1: and that's what Jake has But as you know, coaches,

131
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,839
Speaker 1: they have their own schedule sometimes, so she's graciously agreed

132
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 1: to talk to Jake every week, much like Rick talks

133
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,840
Speaker 1: to this show every week. So appreciate all that over there, Mark,

134
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:55,040
Speaker 1: how the Cobs do yesterday?

135
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 5: Well thanks for just smacking in the side of the head. Well,

136
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 5: Bringhich I'm shocked the Cubs haven't scored a run. It's

137
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 5: not like that offense hasn't looked like complete ass for

138
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 5: like four weeks now, So seven nothing shot. There's supposed

139
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 5: to be a game last night, and then then what

140
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,280
Speaker 5: bad weather hits. So they're playing a doubleheader today and

141
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 5: I'm gonna say over under five runs total for the

142
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 5: Cubs in two games. I would take the under at

143
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 5: this point because that offense is broken.

144
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 4: Shame the mother nature reador ugly had. I really thought

145
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:24,600
Speaker 4: their bats were going to click late.

146
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 5: I know, I'm shocked as you are.

147
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 1: I'm sure they were ready to turn it all around.

148
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: They might today, you never know.

149
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 5: Well, you gotta love seeing that Kyle Tucker is going

150
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 5: to get some days off because he's been struggling so bad.

151
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 5: He hasn't had an extra base hitting over a month.

152
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 5: So the guy who's hoping to get like a six

153
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 5: hundred million dollar deal is uh, you know, getting a

154
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 5: couple of rest days against the toughest team in the division.

155
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,160
Speaker 1: Anybody pay attention to Monday Night Football last night with

156
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 1: the Bengals and Commanders.

157
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 3: I did a little bit.

158
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 2: I thought there were some moments where Joe Burrow was

159
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 2: doing a little bit too much of the Joe Burrow thing.

160
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 3: It's like, just go down and don't kill yourself or

161
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:57,279
Speaker 3: get killed.

162
00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 2: In the preseason looked great through you know, throwing the

163
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 2: ball looks awful, which is not a surprise to me

164
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,280
Speaker 2: at all. But getting back to the Coats for a

165
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,119
Speaker 2: mint a bit, we did have some pretty significant news.

166
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 2: I guess you can look at it from positive in

167
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 2: a negative angle. They signed cornerback Zavin Howard to assist

168
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 2: with the cornerback room, which probably means that, you know,

169
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 2: adding a two time All Pro and a four time

170
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 2: Pro bowler. By the way, he hasn't played since twenty

171
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 2: twenty three, but adding him to that room probably means

172
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 2: that Jaylen Jones and or Juju Brents is going to

173
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 2: remain out for a while. And it sounds like Kevin

174
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 2: when we're talking Tolu Anarumo, who was his old position

175
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 2: coach down in Miami, that this guy they took him

176
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,440
Speaker 2: to play at some point and to contribute at some point.

177
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 2: So that was significant. And then the ir news for

178
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 2: Blake Freeland officially with the fractured leg, and then Hunter

179
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 2: Wohler the foot injury from what I understand per sources,

180
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 2: was a list Franket.

181
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 1: That's interesting.

182
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, hoping I'm saying it correctly, but yeah, he's going

183
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 2: to be out for the rest of the year. And

184
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 2: I did have to get clarity on that because for

185
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 2: those listening, the rules have changed a little bit for

186
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 2: the NFL. Were now you can designate two players that

187
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:06,239
Speaker 2: go on IR to return for the season at some point.

188
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 2: So when you hear IR before the season officially starts.

189
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 2: In the past, it meant they were out for the year,

190
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 2: no matter what. Now I always have to kind of

191
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 2: reach out behind the scenes and see, okay, is this

192
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 2: someone you could designate to return, similar to how they

193
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 2: did with Sampson, Eblecombli last year, Kevin and maybe somebody else.

194
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 2: But yeah, I got confirmation that Hunter Roler Blake Friedland

195
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 2: are both done for the year.

196
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 1: Yeah.

197
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 3: Tough breaks.

198
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 1: Literally, that's two rookies. I'm from the strip.

199
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, Wally as well.

200
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, and you know, obviously Woler was having a really

201
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:39,080
Speaker 4: strong camp. I was curious what exactly his Day one

202
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 4: role would be. I think definitely special teams, potentially involved

203
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,840
Speaker 4: in some sub packages. And you know, we talked about

204
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 4: the injury lists yesterday. Roster cuts are a week from today.

205
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 4: I think I rattled off like fourteen to fifteen names yesterday.

206
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 4: These are two of them, Blake Friedland and Hunter Woller

207
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 4: that we mentioned yesterday. So yeah, yeah, clarity. It sounds

208
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,040
Speaker 4: like you're just sweeping the under the rod, which is unfair.

209
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:04,319
Speaker 4: But now I guess you shift to the other dozen

210
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:06,320
Speaker 4: or so names. And when they get back to practice today,

211
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,680
Speaker 4: do any of these guys that have missed recent time?

212
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 4: Are any of them back to work? So yeah, awful

213
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 4: news obviously there On Wooler, you know, you can make

214
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,439
Speaker 4: the argument that him and Wally were probably two of

215
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,200
Speaker 4: the non Tyler Warren rookies that were impressing the most

216
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 4: out of any of those draft picks here. And you know,

217
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 4: the Howard news obviously is a headliner. I still can

218
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 4: vividly remember two of the more impressive interceptions I've seen

219
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,560
Speaker 4: him actually make against Andrew Luck back in that twenty

220
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 4: eighteen game, where it looked like he was the wide

221
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 4: receiver on that play. But it's been a long time,

222
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 4: and thirty two year old corners do not really grow

223
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 4: on trees nowhere do they play seventeen games. So I

224
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:50,679
Speaker 4: am fascinated to see how this one is going to

225
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:52,839
Speaker 4: play out, because, as James said, Leu an Rumo sounded

226
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,959
Speaker 4: like a guy that's ready to play, exaving Howard's seventeen games.

227
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 4: He did not sound like a guy that needs to

228
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 4: see any sort of Hey, well eas them along or

229
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 4: we'll see where he's at. No, I think if you're

230
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:06,679
Speaker 4: gonna make this signing, you believe A, you believe Jalen

231
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:08,720
Speaker 4: Jones and Juju Brent are probably gonna miss time, and

232
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 4: then B you think he is also an upgrade. And

233
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 4: you know we've had I think this general conversation ever

234
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:19,839
Speaker 4: since the Ana Rumo arrival. But to me, it's another

235
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 4: reminder of it's time to start slotting defensive guys into

236
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 4: who are Gus Bradley guys and who are Lui Anarumo guys?

237
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,719
Speaker 4: Because you're already starting to see some of that play out.

238
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 4: Let's go to linebacker, for example, Jalen Carlis is not

239
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 4: a lu an Arumo guy. Joe Bachi is a lou

240
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 4: and a Remo guy. And I think even before the

241
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,400
Speaker 4: Carla's ankle injury, you were starting to see Joe Bacci

242
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 4: take more and more of those reps go back to corner. Yes,

243
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 4: injuries have contributed to it, but clearly he has strong

244
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 4: history with Howard, and even though that history dates back

245
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 4: almost a decade ago, at this point, he wants to

246
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 4: take a chance on that. So boy, the Colts have

247
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,199
Speaker 4: to have the oldest starting trio of corners in the

248
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:07,199
Speaker 4: entire NFL and Javerius Ward, Kenny Moore and Examon Howard.

249
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,320
Speaker 4: So we'll see how all that plays out.

250
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 1: We'll check all of that throughout the rest of the day.

251
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:13,360
Speaker 1: Check down coming up in just a moment as we

252
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 1: continue to set the day for you, and a lot

253
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 1: ahead as we get rolling on a Tuesday morning, hopefully

254
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 1: a lot of information coming our way throughout the course

255
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 1: of the day. We'll set you up for it. Next

256
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,199
Speaker 1: on ninety three five and one o seven.

257
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:28,600
Speaker 6: Hello the morning.

258
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,880
Speaker 7: Checkdown On ninety sweet five and one oh seven five

259
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:32,600
Speaker 7: the fan.

260
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:35,560
Speaker 1: Good morning and thanks for joining us. How are you

261
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:39,079
Speaker 1: maybe listening this morning? Along with James Boyd and Kevin Bowen,

262
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 1: I'm Jeff Rickard Mark Dyke. Then over there on the

263
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 1: ones and twos, gentlemen, we start with the Indianapolis Colts

264
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,960
Speaker 1: and before we get to yesterday's transactions, Kevin Bowen. Do

265
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 1: we get a starting quarterback from Shane Steichen a little

266
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 1: bit later on this morning?

267
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:53,600
Speaker 4: White smoke from Eagle Creek? Is that what you're saying?

268
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:54,319
Speaker 1: I'm looking for it?

269
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 4: Maybe Boatyard, not just the grill over there.

270
00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:58,319
Speaker 3: I do love Rick.

271
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 1: Maybe we'll just go hang out Rix and look for it.

272
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:02,959
Speaker 4: That wouldn't be a bad little lunch out of there.

273
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 4: Shane Stike wonna beat the media later, so we will

274
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,559
Speaker 4: see if that is going to happen again. Kind of

275
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 4: a regular season schedule for the Colts this week, three

276
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 4: straight practices back at their own facility. And if you're

277
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 4: going to treat it like a regular season, and yes,

278
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,080
Speaker 4: you're gonna have consistent starting reps to one guy, then

279
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 4: potentially that starter could be announced. So we will wait

280
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,440
Speaker 4: and see. It doesn't sound like starters will play on Saturday.

281
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 4: Still waiting confirmation on that, but I got the vibe

282
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 4: that that is not going to be the case. Hell,

283
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 4: the Bengals played last night. Talk about a quick turnaround

284
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:33,560
Speaker 4: for them.

285
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll get to the Bengals in the second here.

286
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 1: But other things that Shane Steaking may take about today.

287
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:43,120
Speaker 1: James Boyd, they've signed cornerback Xavian Howard, and they've also

288
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 1: put a couple of guys Blake Freeland, Jacob Phillips the linebacker,

289
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,360
Speaker 1: and safety Hunter Woller on the injured reserve.

290
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, tough development on those fronts. I believe for Jacob

291
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,839
Speaker 2: Phillips was a biceps injury. Frontal Woler, it was a

292
00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 2: List Frank injury, which basically a mid foot spra or

293
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 2: kind of like this fractures. It's a unique injury. Dwight

294
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 2: Freeney actually had it, and to give you all some

295
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 2: positivity there, he came back the following year, had a

296
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,320
Speaker 2: Pro Bowl season, and then made four straight Pro Bowls

297
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,439
Speaker 2: after that, so he was good to go. But yeah,

298
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 2: it is a long recovery. And then obviously for Blake Freeland,

299
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:19,800
Speaker 2: we saw the injury there with the broken leg in

300
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,319
Speaker 2: the game. So just a tough situation for those guys.

301
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,679
Speaker 2: But Xavin Howard, you know, thirty two years old, did

302
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:26,200
Speaker 2: not play in the NFL last year.

303
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 3: Last played for the Dolphin in twenty twenty three.

304
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 2: But he's got four Pro Bowls to his name, two

305
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:34,200
Speaker 2: All Pro selections, and he led the league interceptions two years.

306
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 2: I think it was twenty eighteen with seven and twenty

307
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 2: twenty with ten. We told him my homework yesterday and

308
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 2: so I'm excited to see what he can bring to

309
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,840
Speaker 2: this team from that standpoint, all.

310
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 1: Right, that Colt Procrusser should happen around eleven o'clock or so.

311
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 1: We'll keep you up to date all day long here

312
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:54,520
Speaker 1: on the fan on anything that happens there. Meanwhile, NFL

313
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: last night preseason game, Monday Night Football, Joe Burrow looking

314
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,600
Speaker 1: in regular season fourm he directed two score drives as

315
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:03,719
Speaker 1: the Bengals beat the Commanders thirty one to seventeen. He

316
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,840
Speaker 1: had a touchdown pass and again nine to fourteen sixty

317
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 1: two yards. And as you said earlier, Joe Burrow doing

318
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow things. Maybe you don't want to see that

319
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,080
Speaker 1: necessarily in the regular season.

320
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,079
Speaker 2: No, not at all. I think all of Cincinnati was

321
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 2: saying get down on a couple of those plays. But man,

322
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 2: he is one of the best players in the world.

323
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 3: What a player. The throw that he.

324
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:25,840
Speaker 2: Made, I forget who the guy was, but the tight

325
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 2: window throw across the middle in the back of the

326
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 2: end zone of.

327
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 4: Charlie Jones, a Purdue guy.

328
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I thought that throw was when you see

329
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 2: a dude, and I think obviously Colts fans and we'll

330
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 2: have Zach Keith Fro talk about it a little bit later,

331
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 2: but I think when you see throws like that, Colts

332
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 2: fans are reminded of how it was of Andrew Luck

333
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 2: and how it was a Peyton manning. When you have

334
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 2: a dude who could just make every single throw, and

335
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,520
Speaker 2: Joe Burrow is a guy who gives you a chance

336
00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 2: even with the Putrio defense, that guy is special man.

337
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 1: Also for the Cincinnati Bengals, it's looking more and more

338
00:14:56,520 --> 00:15:00,120
Speaker 1: likely that they might trade defensive end Trey Hendricks and

339
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 1: then something that to me even four days ago, seemed

340
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 1: like they're going to figure it out James looks like

341
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 1: maybe inevitable. Now, I don't know, what do you think.

342
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 2: I think they're liars if you were going to trade,

343
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:11,520
Speaker 2: and you should have did it before the draft, and

344
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 2: they're asking price. According to at least at the Athletic

345
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 2: Diana Russini, who's our top insider, you know, it's a

346
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 2: first round pick and another player, and you know, so

347
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 2: I don't know how many teams are willing to give

348
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 2: up a first round pick for him at this point.

349
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 2: You know this is a guy who I believe might

350
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 2: be thirty or is going to turn thirty very soon.

351
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 2: And in my opinion, for the coltsest purposes, they're not

352
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 2: going to make this trade because you cannot give up

353
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:37,960
Speaker 2: your twenty twenty six first round pick because you don't

354
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 2: know who your quarterback is going to be in twenty

355
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 2: twenty six. Now, if you get an answer on that

356
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 2: and you were sure fire, hey we got our quarterback

357
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 2: of the future, that would be great, but they are

358
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 2: non positioned in my opinion, to make that move.

359
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 1: Also, Kevin Bond, if you were going to one O,

360
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:52,880
Speaker 1: seven to five thefan dot com terrific, look at what

361
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 1: you're thinking for the fifty three man roster coming up here.

362
00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 1: I thought that was fun to go through yesterday.

363
00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 4: One week from today. Yes, again, it's just one giant

364
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 4: cut ninety to fifty three. In years past we've had

365
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 4: a variety of ninety to eighty, eighty to seventy five.

366
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 4: But yeah, it's just one big one the NFL has

367
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 4: done here over the last couple of years. So three practices,

368
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 4: a Saturday preseason game, final chance, and like we talked

369
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 4: about yesterday, injuries are going to play a huge, huge, factor,

370
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 4: and I think we could see several different iterations of

371
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:28,440
Speaker 4: the fifty three men roster leading into the season officially starting.

372
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 4: So that is part of what this time of year

373
00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:33,920
Speaker 4: is all about around the NFL. So big week for

374
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 4: a lot of guys in the back end of the roster.

375
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,840
Speaker 1: All right. Check Major League Baseball. The Cincinnati Red Legs

376
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 1: have won a couple of games in a row. They

377
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 1: beat the Los Angeles Angels four to one last night.

378
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 1: Gavin Lux had a two run home run. They got

379
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 1: a couple of sackflies to score the other ones. They're

380
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 1: getting on their role now.

381
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 4: I always love in the West Coast games when your

382
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:53,440
Speaker 4: team scores early and you feel like you can go

383
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 4: to bed in a peaceful mood.

384
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 1: Was too nothing good for you?

385
00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 4: Well, it was better than the alternative then, and then

386
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 4: I went over and it was time for me to

387
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:05,399
Speaker 4: pee three times during the night. P Number one I

388
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:06,680
Speaker 4: looked at and I was like, oh, four to one,

389
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,440
Speaker 4: that was pretty efficient. Good work, Brady Singer.

390
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:13,160
Speaker 1: That worked out well. Milwaukee Brewers seven nothing over the Cubs.

391
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,480
Speaker 1: We talked about that a little earlier. Anything more needs

392
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 1: to be said other.

393
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,199
Speaker 4: Than I love how you greeted Mark with that. Second

394
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,920
Speaker 4: thing said to Mark during the whole day was, hey, Mark, the.

395
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 1: Clubs, you're feeling bad for the guy that plays you

396
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 1: to death with sound regarding the Cincinnati Reds and you're

397
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,680
Speaker 1: feeling bad for him. Now now that works.

398
00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 4: No, I thought it was excellent by you.

399
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 5: I'm remembering all these things.

400
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 4: Jeffs finest work.

401
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 1: It's Milwaukee Brewers over the Cubs seven to nothing. Said

402
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:40,399
Speaker 1: it all right, I don't have to repeat it.

403
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:40,919
Speaker 4: You said it.

404
00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:41,880
Speaker 1: Can I finish the sentence?

405
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 6: No?

406
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 1: Please, No, we'll move on. The second game of the

407
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 1: heater was rained out. Mark can't wait for that to

408
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 1: be a rescheduled doubleheader for today?

409
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:48,480
Speaker 8: Oh?

410
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, I can't wait. I'm locked in.

411
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:55,000
Speaker 1: He's in mid season Cubs for him. Also, yesterday, the

412
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:58,479
Speaker 1: White Sox just beaten up on the Atlanta Braves by

413
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:02,400
Speaker 1: a score of thirteen to nine. The Saint Louis Cardinals

414
00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:06,399
Speaker 1: yesterday got an eight three win over the Miami Marlin

415
00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 1: so Later on tonight, the Indians back in action on

416
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 1: the road. They'll play the Syracuse Mets at six thirty five.

417
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:14,760
Speaker 1: Anything else you guys want to throw another than No

418
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,159
Speaker 1: real update on the knee injury to Sophie Cunningham and

419
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 1: the fever.

420
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:22,119
Speaker 2: I do want to mention that for the Xavin Howard signing,

421
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 2: there is some off the field stuff that he's done

422
00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:26,240
Speaker 2: or allegedly done.

423
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 3: We'll get into it that we certainly have to address.

424
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 2: And I think that, you know, I actually have a

425
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,200
Speaker 2: statement I can read after the break from Chris Ballard

426
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 2: on the signing. But yeah, it wasn't just necessarily something

427
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:39,679
Speaker 2: you can look at from a football standpoint.

428
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:40,800
Speaker 3: You look at the other stuff as well.

429
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:42,120
Speaker 4: Is that why you didn't play last year?

430
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:44,440
Speaker 1: I think he was. I think that injured as well.

431
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:44,919
Speaker 1: He was hurt.

432
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 3: I think he had a foot injury.

433
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:47,879
Speaker 2: Might have been Liz Frank actually from what I was reading,

434
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:52,040
Speaker 2: but I do wonder if that was antributing factor at all.

435
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 2: Some of the stuff that he did off the court

436
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 2: that you know, ended up Indian court records.

437
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:57,639
Speaker 4: The only other thing I was going to add was

438
00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:00,480
Speaker 4: I see Indiana's really bolster their non conference schedule.

439
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,240
Speaker 1: For you see that. I did see that, like what

440
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:06,800
Speaker 1: I saw. If you're Indiana, do you even announce that

441
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:07,919
Speaker 1: or is that just something to somebody.

442
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:09,600
Speaker 4: I don't know if they announced it yet, but I

443
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,120
Speaker 4: saw a report that they have added the Fighting Antoine

444
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:15,720
Speaker 4: Bethets Howard to the schedule coming up for next year.

445
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:20,080
Speaker 4: Today'sbcus So the Bison, Yes, I believe it is the Bison, Jamie,

446
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 4: and I like a good Bison burger miam Ohio. Shout

447
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:25,840
Speaker 4: out to Kristen Cramp. Shout out to the Fighting RedHawks

448
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:28,879
Speaker 4: there in a couple of years. So Indiana remains the

449
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:32,639
Speaker 4: only Power for team with a non conference schedule that

450
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:35,600
Speaker 4: has zero Power four teams on it over the next

451
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 4: I believe it's five five.

452
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 1: Years one up. Yeah, no conference or no non conference

453
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:43,960
Speaker 1: road games till twenty thirty.

454
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, And I don't have as big of an issue

455
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:50,080
Speaker 4: with that, the fact that you're unwilling to play anybody

456
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 4: of notice probably where or My issue is, boy, this

457
00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:57,400
Speaker 4: this Mendoza kid. Though, down there people are insanely high

458
00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:57,639
Speaker 4: on it.

459
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:00,520
Speaker 1: They liked Timmy Kim from Cal, right right, good things

460
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 1: about him at Cal.

461
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:08,120
Speaker 4: Like sleeper Heisman Trophy, first round pick type of deal. So, yeah,

462
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 4: Curtis Rourke, see you later, according to a lot of

463
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,040
Speaker 4: these people down there. So we'll see behind a better

464
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 4: offensive line than he had over at Cal. Obviously scheduled

465
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:20,760
Speaker 4: a little tougher, but people are extremely intrigued by for

466
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 4: Nano Mendoza.

467
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:24,640
Speaker 1: All right, looking forward to, uh seeing how that all develops.

468
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:27,040
Speaker 1: In the meantime, we'll talk more colts and get us

469
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 1: some stuff that James Boyd teased and talked about there

470
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,560
Speaker 1: in a moment as we continue, and we'll check a

471
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 1: first check of the fan text line too at two

472
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 1: nine seventy. It's all coming your way as we continue

473
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:41,360
Speaker 1: at ninety three five and one seven. Good morning, Happy Tuesday.

474
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:45,600
Speaker 1: Welcome into the Fan Morning Show, KBJB, Jeff Fan, Mark Daichdon.

475
00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:48,120
Speaker 1: I guess we'd call you doctor, right MD? Anybody ever

476
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:48,600
Speaker 1: for that?

477
00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,280
Speaker 5: He'd like to sure there's no degree on my door.

478
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 5: You want some medical advice.

479
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:55,120
Speaker 1: Though, doctor of nonsense?

480
00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 5: I like that, say put some dirt on it, get

481
00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 5: back out there.

482
00:20:58,400 --> 00:20:58,760
Speaker 1: Yeah.

483
00:20:59,359 --> 00:20:59,439
Speaker 7: Uh.

484
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 1: Text is open two three ninety ten seventy and the

485
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,760
Speaker 1: fan text line. Mark got in early this morning and Kevin,

486
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: he said, regardless of who's name the starting quarterback, by

487
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:10,240
Speaker 1: week three or four, everyone's gonna want the other guy

488
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:12,879
Speaker 1: with the starter when it turns out to be, uh,

489
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:15,119
Speaker 1: not so great. That's how it's always been, just his

490
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,160
Speaker 1: two cents, probably not the all but off the mark,

491
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:19,440
Speaker 1: I would imagine.

492
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:27,480
Speaker 4: Better chance the Colts make the AFC title game or

493
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,159
Speaker 4: the week one starter starts all seventeen games for the Colts.

494
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:37,880
Speaker 3: The latter, Yeah, I think this is the latter.

495
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 1: You're saying no chance is what you're saying.

496
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, they have no chance to make the AFC Championship.

497
00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:46,440
Speaker 2: So I will go with like little to no chance

498
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 2: over zero chance. You're positive this so if you're able

499
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:52,960
Speaker 2: to win, they ask, no, no, no, we're not doing that. Nah,

500
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:56,639
Speaker 2: I'm not nothing to a positive. Have you seen those quarterbacks?

501
00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:58,800
Speaker 2: If you're able to win they have you seen this team?

502
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:00,719
Speaker 2: They made the playoffs in four you also think they

503
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 2: go to AFC Championship? No zero chance?

504
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,120
Speaker 4: How many starters you even started all seventeen games last

505
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 4: year in the NFL? Do you think half? Well?

506
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:10,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was though it was a unique year. A

507
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,160
Speaker 2: lot of guys got dinged up and missed some time.

508
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:14,760
Speaker 8: Uh.

509
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 4: You would probably go with the AFC title game, right?

510
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 4: Or would you go with the ladder there you think?

511
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:23,120
Speaker 4: I think the Jones or Anthony Richardson will start each

512
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:26,119
Speaker 4: and every football game the Colts play this season.

513
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 1: I think there's zero chance that happens, which is why,

514
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,800
Speaker 1: given the choice of those two, I'd probably take the

515
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,760
Speaker 1: AFC Championship game. But again to James point, I'm just reversing,

516
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,240
Speaker 1: and there's little to no chance of one and zero chances.

517
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 1: Just got to win two playoff games, right, Oh yeah,

518
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:41,320
Speaker 1: that's all you gotta do.

519
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 4: How long has that been?

520
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,120
Speaker 5: It's the getting to the playoffs that's been the issue.

521
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:46,399
Speaker 4: Coach, Well, you're in the AFC South. Isn't that a

522
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 4: gift that keeps on giving?

523
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:51,680
Speaker 5: Not for the rock I Sweiler?

524
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:52,160
Speaker 9: Maybe?

525
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:53,159
Speaker 10: And if C. J.

526
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:55,880
Speaker 4: Stroud gets hurt Davis Mills time, baby.

527
00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:01,240
Speaker 1: M Davis Mills, does that mean we're going to be

528
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:03,400
Speaker 1: a Bean at quarterback at some point this year? Maybe?

529
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 4: I do not think Jason Dean will get understanded.

530
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 5: I'm gonna look and see what like if you put

531
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:09,800
Speaker 5: if you picked the Colts to represent the AFC in

532
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 5: the in the championship game, like, what what odds are

533
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 5: we looking at here?

534
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 1: But go ahead, I bet it's somewhere around. I'm going

535
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,280
Speaker 1: to say probably like twe plus twelve hundred, fourteen hundred

536
00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:21,800
Speaker 1: something like that.

537
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 5: It'd be ten million, might be higher than that.

538
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 1: We were talking about the fact that during the checkdown

539
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 1: a moment ago, James Boyd that Zavian Howard has been

540
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,639
Speaker 1: signed by Chris Ballard. And not only do you have

541
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,760
Speaker 1: an injury of sorts last year, he's thirty two years old,

542
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:37,520
Speaker 1: but he also had a lot of off the field

543
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:39,680
Speaker 1: stuff to deal with, including the fact that he sent

544
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:43,640
Speaker 1: a picture of a very graphic nature of him and

545
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 1: a woman to the woman's son because he was in

546
00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 1: a dispute with the woman. He sent that picture to

547
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,440
Speaker 1: the woman's teenage son of he and the woman in

548
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,800
Speaker 1: a very interesting situation.

549
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:59,399
Speaker 2: Let's put Yeah, this is all allegedly according to court documents.

550
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,600
Speaker 2: And now the I guess the update there is that

551
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 2: the Sun has This is according to earlier this year

552
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,640
Speaker 2: in February of court filing. And I'll just read what's

553
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:14,359
Speaker 2: in our story, my story the void quote voluntarily dismissed

554
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,399
Speaker 2: with prejudice the claims he has heard against Howard, so

555
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:19,959
Speaker 2: mean dismissed with the prejudice means it can't come back

556
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:21,880
Speaker 2: to court and he can't be tried for that again.

557
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 2: But the plaintiff's lawsuit is still pending, so I believe

558
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 2: this isn't resolved fully just yet. But it's certainly something, right,

559
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:31,680
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, what so.

560
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:33,920
Speaker 1: It's reports of that happening at this point, right.

561
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 2: Well, it's all in court documents, so I think it's

562
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,359
Speaker 2: I guess it's more valid than a report like this

563
00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:44,480
Speaker 2: is all in you know, the public domain, and he

564
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:46,239
Speaker 2: had to go to court for it, or had to

565
00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:46,879
Speaker 2: you know, be a.

566
00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:50,280
Speaker 3: To a certain degree. They had to go through a

567
00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:51,240
Speaker 3: lawsuit because of it.

568
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 2: So anyways, Yeah, I reached out to the Colts because

569
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 2: I was like, this is going to go in my story.

570
00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 3: It has to go in the story. And here's what

571
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:00,200
Speaker 3: Chris Ballard said.

572
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,040
Speaker 2: And keep in mind as to someone who said, you know,

573
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,560
Speaker 2: they try to keep people with high character and you know,

574
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:06,520
Speaker 2: obviously they want them to be good members of the

575
00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 2: community and society. And he said, we understand the discussion

576
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 2: regarding Xavian. We've done our research on this situation. We

577
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 2: talked thoroughly with him. We expect Xaviing to be professional

578
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:19,840
Speaker 2: on and off the field. He understands the opportunity he

579
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:22,720
Speaker 2: has here. A significant part of this signing is trust,

580
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 2: and we expect him to build on and honor that trust.

581
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:29,720
Speaker 2: So that is the latest on that. There are some

582
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:31,720
Speaker 2: other stuff in his past as well. I want it

583
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:33,840
Speaker 2: to get into those things because both of those cases

584
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:37,399
Speaker 2: were actually dismissed. But nevertheless, it is certainly something to

585
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,240
Speaker 2: you know, ask about, and I think, you know, regardless

586
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 2: of what happens with the quarterback situation, at some point

587
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 2: it is still worth asking Shane Steichen or asking Xavion

588
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 2: Howard himself, like what is the latest and you know,

589
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 2: what can you really say about this matter?

590
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I file that one under the file of there's

591
00:25:54,960 --> 00:26:00,399
Speaker 1: some guys and whether it's the NFL, NBA, Major League Baseball, hockey, whatever,

592
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:04,119
Speaker 1: there are always just some guys that there's just always

593
00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:07,879
Speaker 1: something going on. It seems like there's every year or

594
00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 1: every year and a half, there's something bubbling up. There's

595
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:13,840
Speaker 1: something going on that's just doesn't need to be there,

596
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:17,119
Speaker 1: and even though they don't, maybe those things get dismissed

597
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 1: or whatever happens to him. It just feels like there

598
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:22,360
Speaker 1: are guys that put themselves continually in situations that are

599
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 1: not the most ideal of situations.

600
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, he does seem like one that's popped up on

601
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 4: the old ESPN ticker quite a bit here over the

602
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 4: last couple of years. You know, it sounded like judging

603
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:33,920
Speaker 4: by what Louis an Rumo said yesterday. Again for those

604
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 4: that are unfamiliar with Howard's full background, he began with

605
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 4: the Dolphins, that is where loui Ana Rumo was prior

606
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:42,480
Speaker 4: to Cincinnati. So you know, Howard has been in the

607
00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:45,280
Speaker 4: league for so long that his first two years in

608
00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 4: the league, loui An Rumo was his position coach there

609
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:52,159
Speaker 4: in Miami. You really flourished, you know, probably kind of

610
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:54,840
Speaker 4: right at the end of and Rumo's time there especially,

611
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 4: you know, right around twenty nineteen twenty twenty. But like

612
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:02,400
Speaker 4: it is, you know, this would be quite the resurrection project,

613
00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:06,520
Speaker 4: exaving Howard coming here and being whatever a top flight

614
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:08,800
Speaker 4: corner for you. I mean, when James rattled off some

615
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 4: of those stats a little bit earlier of his interceptions

616
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 4: and his all pro.

617
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:15,000
Speaker 2: Nature twenty twenty l leading the interceptions, how long ago was.

618
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,640
Speaker 4: That and in corner years, that's like dog USh, Yeah,

619
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:23,040
Speaker 4: you know it's the Colts are really banking on something

620
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 4: I'd say rather unprecedented when you look at their three corners,

621
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 4: assuming xaving Howard's going to be one of the starters.

622
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:31,439
Speaker 4: I mean him and Kenny Moore and Shavarious Ward. They

623
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,560
Speaker 4: all have nearly one hundred starts in the league. That's

624
00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:35,920
Speaker 4: a lot. And you know, I think last year in

625
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:38,760
Speaker 4: the league you only had one corner age thirty or

626
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:42,639
Speaker 4: older start every game. That was Jalen Ramsey. So you know,

627
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:44,440
Speaker 4: I don't want to act like maybe it's like a

628
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 4: running back where you get to like twenty eight twenty nine,

629
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 4: the red flag starts to get waived, But it's kind

630
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 4: of like that at corner. And again, Xavier Howard didn't

631
00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,359
Speaker 4: play in the league last year. Now, lou Anerimo kind

632
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 4: of flipped that on the other side of saying, well,

633
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:57,439
Speaker 4: you know, that means he's, you know, maybe could have

634
00:27:57,480 --> 00:28:00,240
Speaker 4: some fresh legs. So we'll see. They worked in out.

635
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 4: They clearly were good with it. But James Boyd judging.

636
00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 4: But by what lou An Arumo said yesterday, I don't

637
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:08,840
Speaker 4: see this as a Hey, we'll see where he's at

638
00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,440
Speaker 4: and maybe he'll make the team Next Tuesday. I got

639
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:14,919
Speaker 4: the impression that when they play the Miami Dolphins, his

640
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 4: old team, ironically, two weeks from Sunday, Xamy Howard's going

641
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:19,920
Speaker 4: to be playing a lot of snaps.

642
00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:22,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I honestly think that he could be in the

643
00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:25,280
Speaker 2: running to start that game, considering the injury they've had

644
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:28,080
Speaker 2: to that secondary and assuming Kennymore is able to come back,

645
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:30,359
Speaker 2: I would think he's in a slot various wards on

646
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:32,360
Speaker 2: the other outside spot, and those are your three cornerbacks.

647
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:34,199
Speaker 1: Yep. Talk to me about the injuries to the other

648
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,280
Speaker 1: two guys at this point in time. Are we talking

649
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 1: about lengthy absences? Are we talking? What are we talking about?

650
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:39,160
Speaker 10: There?

651
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:39,520
Speaker 6: Do we know?

652
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:42,760
Speaker 2: No, we don't know. I mean, I can give it

653
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:44,680
Speaker 2: to you straight as this, Jeff. It's been a lengthy

654
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,720
Speaker 2: absence for Juju Brinston, Jalen Jones because they just haven't played,

655
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 2: and I don't know, Kevin has been at least two

656
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:51,040
Speaker 2: or three weeks.

657
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,040
Speaker 4: Is no longer three at this point? Probably?

658
00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 3: Yeah.

659
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:56,840
Speaker 2: So from that standpoint, that is my own official update

660
00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:00,239
Speaker 2: or unofficial update. But as far as the coaching staff, no,

661
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 2: we haven't heard anything from Shane Styken beyond their progressing

662
00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:05,520
Speaker 2: and that's all he's really offered.

663
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,479
Speaker 3: And honestly, that's usually the case with Shane.

664
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know if that's a and I

665
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,040
Speaker 2: guess most coaches kind of stay away from the medical

666
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:15,320
Speaker 2: updates and things like that. But he's one who he

667
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:18,800
Speaker 2: offers very little to be honest with you, and so yeah,

668
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 2: I will ask again today, perhaps, you know, assuming I'll

669
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:26,200
Speaker 2: be honest with those listening. If there's a quarterback decision today,

670
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 2: every question for the twenty minutes that Shane Stychen is

671
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:31,680
Speaker 2: up there will be about the quarterbacks, and then everything

672
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 2: else will be put on the back burner until later.

673
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,120
Speaker 2: But I believe at some point this week we'll be

674
00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:36,640
Speaker 2: able to follow up and ask about some of these

675
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:40,440
Speaker 2: injuries and see where guys are, because it is getting

676
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:42,720
Speaker 2: a bit to that point where you wonder, Okay, where's

677
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,600
Speaker 2: Jalen Jones and his recovery, where's Juju Brentson his recovery?

678
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 2: And can these guys be available come week one or

679
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 2: be close to being available come week one?

680
00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:52,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, for example we talked about earlier, I posted a

681
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 4: fifty three man roster projection up on our website again,

682
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:59,640
Speaker 4: roster cuts a week from today. I kept seven corners.

683
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,240
Speaker 4: There's no way I've ever done this exercise before and

684
00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:05,480
Speaker 4: kept seven cornerbacks. But I kept seven because of injury insurance,

685
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 4: Jones and Brents being two of the guys that you

686
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 4: would think about with that so again clarity the Colts. Internally,

687
00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 4: they're gonna need some clarity on some of these injured guys.

688
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 4: And again, when we're out at practice today, do any

689
00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:21,720
Speaker 4: of these guys get back to work. Nick Cross has

690
00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 4: missed about a week plus, Quitty pay has missed a

691
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:28,840
Speaker 4: week plus. Jalen Carlis was in a boot last week

692
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:32,040
Speaker 4: during the joint practice of the Packers. You know, Josh

693
00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:36,280
Speaker 4: Downs's hamstring, Alec Pierce's groin. You only get seven in

694
00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:39,040
Speaker 4: actives on game day, so some of these do start

695
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 4: to add up for you. So again, as James pointed out,

696
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:44,440
Speaker 4: I thought, pretty well right there. You know, yes, the

697
00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 4: quarterback conversation will certainly dominate many of the new cycle today,

698
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:53,800
Speaker 4: but internally the Colts will have some injury questions to

699
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:56,600
Speaker 4: deal with with the old roster mechanics when it comes

700
00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 4: to cutting down a rosters of fifty three players.

701
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:01,120
Speaker 1: It's the Fan Morning Show and I one seventy five

702
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:02,760
Speaker 1: of the fan. We'll go to the fan text line

703
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,720
Speaker 1: right now at two three, nine ten seventy, AJ says,

704
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:08,640
Speaker 1: talking about Chris Ballard, this is the guy that would

705
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 1: brag endlessly on his amazing locker room. My point being

706
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:15,320
Speaker 1: guys like Howard are just fine for Ballard. Uh. He

707
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 1: was not impressed with Ballard's response. He also says, thank

708
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 1: you for reporting on this, And there are a lot

709
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,160
Speaker 1: of guys that'll hold general managers to them saying, hey,

710
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:25,800
Speaker 1: we want high carrick nothing but high character guys coming

711
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:26,640
Speaker 1: in here all the time.

712
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:31,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think a lot of them preached that.

713
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,960
Speaker 2: I think, you know, Ballard tries to carry that out

714
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:36,480
Speaker 2: to a degree. But I'm not somebody who's gonna see

715
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 2: here and be like this idealist where I expect every

716
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:42,080
Speaker 2: team to sign nothing but guys who are on the

717
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,680
Speaker 2: up and up or don't have a past. And I

718
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:47,720
Speaker 2: have to understand or at least try to respect the

719
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,760
Speaker 2: fact that they probably have more information on this on

720
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:51,360
Speaker 2: the matter than I do. But at the end of

721
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:54,560
Speaker 2: the day, this is the NFL, and in professional sports,

722
00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 2: we've seen at time and time again, if you can

723
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,959
Speaker 2: play or if some things you can play, whatever you've

724
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:01,080
Speaker 2: done in the past and gets put in the back burner.

725
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 3: And that's just the reality of the business. In my opinion.

726
00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think the Colts losing on Sundays are far

727
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:08,240
Speaker 4: more frustrating the Colts fans and then losing community Tuesdays.

728
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:12,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, ah, this is very true. This is uh from

729
00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:15,920
Speaker 1: Adam in Wykestown. Let's be honest, we all want Tyler

730
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 1: Warren to be the starting quarterback.

731
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:20,480
Speaker 4: A former high school quarterback. Correct, Yeah, he can do anything.

732
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 4: I threw some lefty pass. Let's put it on this

733
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:25,240
Speaker 4: guy at Penn State. I say, Tyler Warren will throw.

734
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,400
Speaker 1: Pass this here, that would be outstanding.

735
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:28,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I honestly think it would be funny if he

736
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,480
Speaker 2: threw the first passing of the year. Did you imagine

737
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:35,560
Speaker 2: red zone red zone five yards in they drew, they

738
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 2: do the old t bow where it's like, yeah, the

739
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:38,480
Speaker 2: jump past.

740
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 3: That would be pretty hilarious if you did that.

741
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:42,840
Speaker 4: But what I'm saying, it's not very healthy that I'm

742
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 4: peeing multiple times during the night. Should I be worried

743
00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:47,400
Speaker 4: about that? Somebody will give me some prostate advice, which

744
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:48,040
Speaker 4: thank you for that.

745
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:49,240
Speaker 1: Starting to get a little.

746
00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:52,560
Speaker 5: Talk yesterday, not prostate, starting about you.

747
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:54,240
Speaker 4: Oh, had an update on the quarter potty.

748
00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:55,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, what do we get?

749
00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 4: Thank you to listener Mike for reaching out here. Mike

750
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 4: said that, Uh, I want to make sure I get

751
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:05,200
Speaker 4: this exactly correct. I don't want to misconstrue any words. Here,

752
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 4: he goes, I get the reason for you going into

753
00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 4: the porter potty for the sunglasses. When I went to

754
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,719
Speaker 4: ball State, I was in a bar called the Chug,

755
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:16,200
Speaker 4: very very legendary spot there in Muncie, I must add,

756
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:20,600
Speaker 4: Mike says, I chewed at the time. I dropped my

757
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:25,720
Speaker 4: chew can in the toilet, snatched it right out.

758
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,160
Speaker 1: Oh God, no, thank you?

759
00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 4: So how about that Mike and I porter potty snatching

760
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:39,080
Speaker 4: brothers here and a little long cut grizz that Mike

761
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 4: found the need to dive in there for. Can you

762
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:46,040
Speaker 4: imagine I was chew correct? Can you imagine what the

763
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,280
Speaker 4: Chug toilet probably looked like?

764
00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 5: I can't imagine the flavor changed.

765
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 4: Much, man, Mike? What happens in Munsi?

766
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:54,680
Speaker 1: Stays?

767
00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:55,880
Speaker 3: And yeah, God bless you, Mike.

768
00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:59,040
Speaker 1: A lot of people starting to offer up prostate correct.

769
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,120
Speaker 4: Yes, so needs a doctor. When you have got the

770
00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:04,200
Speaker 4: text line, the lit' is an audience that we have

771
00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:04,640
Speaker 4: out here.

772
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:08,839
Speaker 1: Let's go get hims two through nine, ten seventy. We'll

773
00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:11,520
Speaker 1: check the text line throughout the show and we'll read

774
00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:13,279
Speaker 1: some of them back as we get going. As far

775
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:16,799
Speaker 1: as quarterback is concerned, we're thinking about little over three

776
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:20,000
Speaker 1: hours from now, maybe we find out who quarterback one

777
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,440
Speaker 1: is going into the start of the twenty twenty five season.

778
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,920
Speaker 1: Last night on ESPN, Dan Orlovski was asked about that

779
00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:29,760
Speaker 1: quarterback battle and who he thinks the quarterback one should

780
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:34,600
Speaker 1: be between Anthony Richardson and Daniel Jones.

781
00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 8: I would lean Anthony Richardson just because he has to play.

782
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:39,000
Speaker 4: And you took him forth.

783
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:42,319
Speaker 8: The challenge for the Colts are is one who do

784
00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:45,000
Speaker 8: you trust at that position the most? And then too,

785
00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:48,560
Speaker 8: which quarterback do you truly believe can get all.

786
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:49,800
Speaker 1: Of your playmakers to football.

787
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,919
Speaker 8: Tyler Warren, their first round dropt pick, needs touches, really

788
00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:55,879
Speaker 8: good player, Michael Pittman Junior needs to get the ball

789
00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:59,440
Speaker 8: in his hands. They've got a ton of talented perimeter players.

790
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:01,839
Speaker 8: Josh Downs is going to become one of the better

791
00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:05,359
Speaker 8: slot receivers in the NFL. A d Mitchell, another big

792
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:09,319
Speaker 8: time playmaker Alec Pearson. So the quarterback isn't necessarily the

793
00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:09,839
Speaker 8: guy that.

794
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:12,400
Speaker 4: Has to put on this cape and carry this offense.

795
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:15,120
Speaker 8: There's a ton of really talented players on the printer

796
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:17,880
Speaker 8: and so if you're Shane Steiken, their head coach, It's like,

797
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 8: what quarterback do you trust not only to just run

798
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:24,239
Speaker 8: your offense, but to just play point guard? And that

799
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:28,040
Speaker 8: makes me lean Daniel Jones. My reservation is this, if

800
00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 8: you go Daniel Jones, are you then saying Anthony Richardson

801
00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 8: is done because you're going with Daniel Jones to sit

802
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:36,359
Speaker 8: there and go win is football games. And if that's

803
00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:39,760
Speaker 8: the case and he does that, Anthony Richardson once again

804
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 8: does not get on the field and get reps, which

805
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:45,080
Speaker 8: is the number one thing he needs. So I think

806
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:48,080
Speaker 8: it's a very difficult situation because you're choosing the now

807
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:51,520
Speaker 8: or you're choosing the future, and both of them are separate.

808
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:57,720
Speaker 1: That is one interesting facet of all this. Maybe Shane

809
00:35:57,719 --> 00:35:59,680
Speaker 1: Stikeen just wants a guy that he can depend on,

810
00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:03,000
Speaker 1: just his playmakers the ball. Give the ball to Josh

811
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 1: Downs in the slot. Give the ball to jt. Make

812
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:10,640
Speaker 1: that throw to Tyler Warren. Make sure that Michael Pittman

813
00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:13,520
Speaker 1: when he posts up for a third and seven gets

814
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:16,880
Speaker 1: to the to the sticks, the ball is delivered correctly

815
00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:19,160
Speaker 1: and on time. That might be a bigger decision than

816
00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 1: we think.

817
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:24,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, certainly, and honestly I feel like I appreciate uh

818
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:28,160
Speaker 2: danren Rolofski's inside. Obviously he's a former NFL quarterback, but

819
00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:30,240
Speaker 2: he ain't stating something that isn't the obvious.

820
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:31,560
Speaker 3: You got to give him the ball.

821
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:35,839
Speaker 2: And the question is for Anthony, like it always has been,

822
00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:39,160
Speaker 2: is can you make enough of the regular throws to

823
00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:41,799
Speaker 2: justify putting you out there because we know you can

824
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:45,799
Speaker 2: make all the other spectacular throws. And then for Daniel Jones, it's,

825
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:48,719
Speaker 2: you know, is the floor is you not rocking the

826
00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:52,640
Speaker 2: boat more valuable than perhaps having the explosive you know

827
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:55,040
Speaker 2: thunder plays that kind of flipped the field. And so

828
00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:58,799
Speaker 2: I think a lot of that conversation is what Shane

829
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:00,600
Speaker 2: Steichen has to go back and forth was in his

830
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:04,600
Speaker 2: mind Kevin and really whatever decision he makes, I'm very

831
00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:07,439
Speaker 2: curious to know what he says to the other guy

832
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 2: in that moment. I would imagine it's those three at

833
00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:12,920
Speaker 2: some point, you know, just man the man you probably

834
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:14,640
Speaker 2: wanted to sit down and say, hey, face to face,

835
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 2: here's who I'm going with. But what is that conversation

836
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:20,480
Speaker 2: like adjacent to the quarterback who you choose as a starter,

837
00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:22,359
Speaker 2: are you telling him to stay ready? Are you telling

838
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:25,080
Speaker 2: him it's not the end, like what's that balance like

839
00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:28,839
Speaker 2: when you pick a guy? But we all know this

840
00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 2: isn't necessarily a QB competition that is over as soon

841
00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:36,359
Speaker 2: as they announce who the starter is for week one.

842
00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:38,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean all you guys laughed when I said

843
00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:41,200
Speaker 4: the chance on one of these guys plays seventeen games

844
00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:42,839
Speaker 4: or starts to all seventeen games.

845
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:44,800
Speaker 3: No, but the situation you put me in was also

846
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:47,800
Speaker 3: the AFC champion.

847
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:50,160
Speaker 2: If you told me NFC Championship, I could kind of

848
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:51,880
Speaker 2: see it. Look at this is a I'm a Bears

849
00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:53,799
Speaker 2: fan at least when I was a kid and I

850
00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:56,319
Speaker 2: saw Rex Grossman, you know, get to the Super Bowl.

851
00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:59,520
Speaker 3: So yeah, I know, I know it was painful. I

852
00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:01,560
Speaker 3: thought it was yesty when Devon has to run it

853
00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:03,200
Speaker 3: back and then Peyton Manny kind of woke up a

854
00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:03,759
Speaker 3: little bit there.

855
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:06,200
Speaker 4: But you go back to our Lobsky's comments right there

856
00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:09,680
Speaker 4: at the start, he really lays out the two questions.

857
00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:12,000
Speaker 4: So let's boil it down to those two questions. In

858
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:17,520
Speaker 4: Shane Stikeen's world, should we start Anthony Richardson because he

859
00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:20,440
Speaker 4: was the fourth overall pick, or should I pick my

860
00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:23,880
Speaker 4: starting quarterback on who I trust more, Which question do

861
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 4: you think matters more to Shane stykeen the ladder, It

862
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:29,840
Speaker 4: has to be the latter. If you're the coach, you know,

863
00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 4: so my homes right now are open right now. Like

864
00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:37,120
Speaker 4: if that is the answer, or that's the question, I

865
00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:43,600
Speaker 4: should say, James, then the trust factor is probably with

866
00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:47,319
Speaker 4: Daniel Jones more than Anthony Richardson, is it not.

867
00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:50,680
Speaker 1: But again I agree, the logsical part of my brain

868
00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:54,040
Speaker 1: says you're right. But the other part getting back to

869
00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:56,399
Speaker 1: the fact that you do have this high draft pick

870
00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:58,880
Speaker 1: that was homegrown and you've tried to develop and if

871
00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:01,520
Speaker 1: there really hasn't been any difference between them in camp,

872
00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:04,520
Speaker 1: why would you not go with the guy that you've developed.

873
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:07,640
Speaker 2: That's kind of where I'm at too. It's not like

874
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 2: I've read a tweet I want to say it's one

875
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 2: of me yesterday. It's like, no one has benefitted more

876
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:16,520
Speaker 2: from not playing football a lot over the last year

877
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:19,600
Speaker 2: than Daniel Jones, because I do think to a certain

878
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:23,000
Speaker 2: degree it's kind of been like over corrected and people

879
00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:25,399
Speaker 2: kind of forget what he was as a quarterback and

880
00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 2: you know, some of the erratic decisions he made and

881
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:29,440
Speaker 2: some of the reason why he isn't the started anymore

882
00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:30,160
Speaker 2: in New York.

883
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:30,279
Speaker 4: Now.

884
00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:32,560
Speaker 2: You can say it's infrastructure, you say it's coaching. You

885
00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:34,239
Speaker 2: can also say it's on the quarterback and the guy

886
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:36,319
Speaker 2: who didn't play well. So if you look at some

887
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 2: of his career numbers, I think it's seventy touchdowns forty

888
00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:41,920
Speaker 2: seven interceptions. That isn't like some ringing endorsement of a

889
00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 2: guy who makes the greatest decisions and take care of

890
00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:46,880
Speaker 2: the football. And obviously his last season with the Giants

891
00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:48,560
Speaker 2: was so bad they just benched him and told him,

892
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:51,399
Speaker 2: you know, good luck and good riddance. So I don't

893
00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:52,759
Speaker 2: want to sit here and act like this is a

894
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:57,120
Speaker 2: guy who is like this really cerebril quarterback who.

895
00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:59,239
Speaker 3: Makes all the throws and makes all the best decisions.

896
00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:00,480
Speaker 3: Not really, you.

897
00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:02,399
Speaker 4: Know, I mean this is the lesser of two either.

898
00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:04,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, and there's a reason he was on the street.

899
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:08,240
Speaker 2: And then to the point, but to the point about

900
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:13,200
Speaker 2: Anthony and Shane Stiken, my question to him would be

901
00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 2: and I And honestly, if he makes this decision or

902
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:20,000
Speaker 2: not to start Anthony or not, I still think it's

903
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:23,080
Speaker 2: a question worth asking, is what role do you play?

904
00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:26,600
Speaker 2: Because you advocated for them to draft him. This is

905
00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:29,719
Speaker 2: on the record, it's draft Yeah, so like this, this

906
00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:34,720
Speaker 2: isn't in this situation where this wasn't Jim Mersey saying, oh,

907
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:38,040
Speaker 2: this is my guy. No matter what you say. You

908
00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:40,799
Speaker 2: advocated for that. You went to Chris Ballard and Jim

909
00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:43,400
Speaker 2: Mersay and said when they, you know, broached the topic,

910
00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 2: you said, I believe I can make this guy into

911
00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:49,800
Speaker 2: an NFL quarterback and into a winner. And we haven't

912
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:53,600
Speaker 2: seen that. So I understand the self preservation kicks in.

913
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:55,799
Speaker 2: You want to win games, but I think it would

914
00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 2: be a bit you know, uh, I don't think this

915
00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:01,359
Speaker 2: genius is the right word, but it would be a

916
00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:05,080
Speaker 2: bit you know, not real in my opinion, if you

917
00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:06,480
Speaker 2: sit up there and say, oh, well, this guy gets

918
00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:08,760
Speaker 2: the best chance to win, you are the reason Anthony

919
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:10,120
Speaker 2: was is here in the first place.

920
00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:11,200
Speaker 3: A big reason why that.

921
00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:14,160
Speaker 4: You are part of the miss evaluation, miss development. Have

922
00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:16,600
Speaker 4: you once a Yeah, we've talked about it. Initially Anthony

923
00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:19,600
Speaker 4: got drafted. We all were saying, does he even end

924
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:21,920
Speaker 4: up here if Shane isn't the coach, And at the

925
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:24,239
Speaker 4: time I was thinking no, no, because at the time

926
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:27,520
Speaker 4: Shane was viewed as this guy who could develop quarterbacks

927
00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:29,720
Speaker 4: or help quarterbacks grow. I know he's worked with Jalen

928
00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:32,960
Speaker 4: Hurts obviously most recently before Anthony, and then before that,

929
00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:35,800
Speaker 4: I think it was justin Herbert. So that's the conversation

930
00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:38,200
Speaker 4: I think he has to have, Like just to boil

931
00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:40,680
Speaker 4: it down to the preseason, we've seen these two guys

932
00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:43,799
Speaker 4: play in Colts uniforms. The worst play from Richardson was

933
00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:47,280
Speaker 4: a sack that could have been a strip. Sack knocked

934
00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:49,759
Speaker 4: him out of the game. Ten guys on offense were

935
00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:51,600
Speaker 4: all on the same page. He was not. The worst

936
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:54,320
Speaker 4: play for Jones is probably what the Tyler Warren miss

937
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 4: on Saturday, Probably where the guy's open and he misses.

938
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:03,000
Speaker 4: In the coach's eyes, what's more egregious.

939
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:07,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, probably certainly the missing your own assignment to the

940
00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:08,920
Speaker 1: answer I think Jackson's.

941
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,000
Speaker 4: Where this is. Yes, there are so many signs to

942
00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:13,399
Speaker 4: Danie Lotski's point that yes, you commit to this guy

943
00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:16,240
Speaker 4: fourth overall pick. And yes, again I think they should

944
00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:19,480
Speaker 4: go with Richardson. But these head coaches live in a

945
00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:24,439
Speaker 4: much different bubble of Hey, who can I trust? Who

946
00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:27,000
Speaker 4: is a little bit more controllable? It's less or two

947
00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:29,839
Speaker 4: evils let me be very clear, but if that is

948
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:34,640
Speaker 4: the predominant question in Shane Steichen's eyes, and I think

949
00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:35,960
Speaker 4: Daniel Jones is a lot realer.

950
00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:38,760
Speaker 1: We may find out later on today when Shane Stykeen

951
00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:41,839
Speaker 1: meets with the media around eleven o'clock or so. Coming

952
00:42:41,920 --> 00:42:43,960
Speaker 1: up next, we'll check in on a big event that

953
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:46,359
Speaker 1: happened over the weekend here in Indianapolis, what it means

954
00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:49,040
Speaker 1: for the future. And also we've got the Tour Championship

955
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:50,920
Speaker 1: coming up. We'll talk a little bit about that as

956
00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:52,600
Speaker 1: we continue next on ninety three five and one O

957
00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:56,520
Speaker 1: seven five Russian headlong end of the middle of the week.

958
00:42:56,560 --> 00:42:58,560
Speaker 1: It's Tuesday here at ninety three five one or something

959
00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:00,480
Speaker 1: five the van Tuesday everywhere as a matter of fact,

960
00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:04,080
Speaker 1: and Kevin Bowen on my left, James Boyd to my right,

961
00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:06,960
Speaker 1: so it crossed the way. It's Mark Dyton and on

962
00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:10,560
Speaker 1: the Payloss Liquers hotline right now, one of our favorites,

963
00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:14,960
Speaker 1: Indiana's own Indianapolis's own Will Haskins, who is a broadcast

964
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,400
Speaker 1: or an author. He focuses on golf. He focuses on

965
00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:21,040
Speaker 1: lots of sports as well. And good morning, well, happy Tuesday.

966
00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:24,040
Speaker 10: It's not a major's week and I'm a guest on

967
00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:25,800
Speaker 10: the show, something good must have happened.

968
00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:27,480
Speaker 1: Well, how are we happy?

969
00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:30,479
Speaker 10: Happy Quarterback Decision Day. I don't know what the book

970
00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:32,160
Speaker 10: makers have on it, but I know it's going to

971
00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:32,920
Speaker 10: make for good.

972
00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:33,680
Speaker 6: Sports talk radio.

973
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:34,600
Speaker 1: So who do you like?

974
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:37,600
Speaker 6: Depends on what role I'm in.

975
00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:39,040
Speaker 10: If I'm a coach and my.

976
00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:41,120
Speaker 6: Job is on the line, Daniel Jones.

977
00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:44,600
Speaker 10: If I'm trying to make the best potential franchise move

978
00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:48,319
Speaker 10: moving forward, it's Richardson. But let's be honest, it's it's

979
00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:50,839
Speaker 10: just kind of a a turd burger, right, Like you're

980
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:52,680
Speaker 10: just going to sort of stuck with whatever you're going

981
00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:53,719
Speaker 10: to have the rest of the year.

982
00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:54,319
Speaker 3: Berger.

983
00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:55,719
Speaker 4: I think I've almost had one of those of the

984
00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:57,839
Speaker 4: sausage festa the night when I reached into the old

985
00:43:57,880 --> 00:43:59,759
Speaker 4: toilet there. That was well said by well he must

986
00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:00,000
Speaker 4: do this.

987
00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:02,640
Speaker 1: Let me work that into the next column there.

988
00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:04,960
Speaker 4: Well, I know you are a busy man this morning,

989
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:07,360
Speaker 4: doing some great things that I'm jealous of, So we

990
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:10,719
Speaker 4: won't keep you long. But you were an attendee on

991
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:13,920
Speaker 4: Sunday at the Live Golf tournament up there at the

992
00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:17,920
Speaker 4: Chatham Hills in Westfield. And I thought you painted a

993
00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:21,320
Speaker 4: really first off, but that was a very accurate picture

994
00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:24,279
Speaker 4: of the good the bad. So if you don't mind

995
00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:26,640
Speaker 4: for an audience that maybe did not attend it, what

996
00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:29,040
Speaker 4: did you like about it and what did you not

997
00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:30,360
Speaker 4: necessarily like about it?

998
00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:32,600
Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean, let me preface it with how many

999
00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:34,479
Speaker 10: people saw me there and they were like, oh my gosh,

1000
00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:36,680
Speaker 10: you're an enemy territory, Like what are you doing?

1001
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:39,800
Speaker 6: Purist? Like here for the purist.

1002
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:43,880
Speaker 10: Yeah, all sort of tongue in cheek with everything. Obviously,

1003
00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:46,439
Speaker 10: you know, most of my weeks out on the PGA tour,

1004
00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:51,319
Speaker 10: you know, I think we've arrived at a place where, yes,

1005
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:54,400
Speaker 10: we're losing it moving forward.

1006
00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:57,480
Speaker 4: Try again, go back to where you were at the

1007
00:44:57,520 --> 00:45:00,399
Speaker 4: start of this interview. Yeah, we're reaching a point where

1008
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:02,160
Speaker 4: I don't know if the Saudis have your phone, of

1009
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:04,319
Speaker 4: the PGA tour has your phone, but your phone.

1010
00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:06,479
Speaker 10: Yeah, we're just reaching a point where I think there's

1011
00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:08,680
Speaker 10: just so much you know, apathy to the fact that

1012
00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:11,160
Speaker 10: there's not any progress moving forward, that everything is just

1013
00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:14,080
Speaker 10: sort of existing. And I'll preface this too, like we

1014
00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:16,719
Speaker 10: know that Indianapolis and Central Indiana does sporting events better

1015
00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:20,239
Speaker 10: than anywhere else. So whatever is going to happen, I mean,

1016
00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:23,120
Speaker 10: it could be an international cricket tournament. We're going to

1017
00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:25,600
Speaker 10: turn out and it's going to be phenomenal. And so

1018
00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:29,160
Speaker 10: from an event standpoint, you know, I met my expectations.

1019
00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:30,640
Speaker 10: I knew it was going to be an event. I

1020
00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:32,040
Speaker 10: knew it was going to be loud. I knew it

1021
00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:34,239
Speaker 10: was going to be a party. And that's exactly what

1022
00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:35,960
Speaker 10: you got when you went there. And I think that

1023
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:39,880
Speaker 10: everybody that attended from essentially Indiana standpoint, was thrilled with

1024
00:45:40,239 --> 00:45:44,000
Speaker 10: the activity level. It was great for kids. I know

1025
00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:46,359
Speaker 10: that all the organizers, the city of Westfield has rolled

1026
00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:48,160
Speaker 10: out the red carpet and they deserve a ton of

1027
00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:50,840
Speaker 10: kudos for the sacrifices made and the work done behind

1028
00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:54,200
Speaker 10: the scenes. Everybody there just you know, did everything that

1029
00:45:54,239 --> 00:45:57,759
Speaker 10: they could, and I think they they blew the expectations

1030
00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:00,520
Speaker 10: out of the water of Live coming here, because I

1031
00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:02,520
Speaker 10: think LIVE has really struggled in a lot of other

1032
00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:06,560
Speaker 10: places of having sort of the backbone and the support

1033
00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:09,360
Speaker 10: and the strength of an organizing group like we have

1034
00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:11,920
Speaker 10: here in Central Indiana, and so I think that showed

1035
00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:13,120
Speaker 10: in the turnout.

1036
00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:14,799
Speaker 6: It showed in the end.

1037
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:21,719
Speaker 1: But ah, we've got a bad cell phone today. He's

1038
00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:24,640
Speaker 1: going to reset on that. But yeah, I think Kevin,

1039
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:26,279
Speaker 1: you would be the perfect guy to talk about this.

1040
00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:29,040
Speaker 1: Are we get to the point where the differences between

1041
00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:32,479
Speaker 1: Live and PGA for a lot of fans like they're

1042
00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:34,160
Speaker 1: just apathetic towards the whole thing.

1043
00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:36,320
Speaker 4: Well, I think Will was pointing out there pretty accurately.

1044
00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:38,400
Speaker 4: I don't think anyone pays attention to live unless it

1045
00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:41,719
Speaker 4: shows up in your own market, and then we love

1046
00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:46,719
Speaker 4: sports and people that attended it I think largely had

1047
00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:50,560
Speaker 4: Will's I guess is in agreement with what Will said

1048
00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:53,880
Speaker 4: about being very fan friendly and catering to younger kids.

1049
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:56,239
Speaker 4: But I mean, I am a sports fan, I or

1050
00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:57,880
Speaker 4: at sports fan, and Friday was the first time I've

1051
00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:00,680
Speaker 4: ever watched a live golf hole and I don't think

1052
00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:04,960
Speaker 4: I'm like in the minority necessarily on that. I think

1053
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:07,120
Speaker 4: a lot of sports fans a struggle to find it

1054
00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:10,520
Speaker 4: and b have ever thought about necessarily watching it, And

1055
00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:12,440
Speaker 4: when you are watching it, I don't know if it

1056
00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:15,160
Speaker 4: just doesn't come across in my opinion in the same

1057
00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:18,239
Speaker 4: way I think Team Golf at times can just be

1058
00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:22,640
Speaker 4: a hair forced as well. Well, thank you for calling

1059
00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:25,680
Speaker 4: us back, continued, because you were in a beautiful train

1060
00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:26,040
Speaker 4: of thought.

1061
00:47:26,560 --> 00:47:28,520
Speaker 10: Yeah, no, I think I don't know where I cut out.

1062
00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:31,640
Speaker 10: But again, the event was fantastic. And I think that

1063
00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:34,600
Speaker 10: just from my standpoint of attending a lot of different

1064
00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:37,439
Speaker 10: golf tournaments. Obviously each and every week, the golf felt

1065
00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:40,359
Speaker 10: secondary until the very end of the actual day. And

1066
00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:42,160
Speaker 10: if you're there to take your kids and you want

1067
00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:43,440
Speaker 10: to go to the fan experience and you.

1068
00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:45,719
Speaker 6: Don't care about seeing a golf shot, and that was great.

1069
00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:46,920
Speaker 6: It was a really good event.

1070
00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:49,000
Speaker 10: It just it could have been any sporting event, I

1071
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:53,160
Speaker 10: think surrounding the entire property, and from an event standpoint,

1072
00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:55,600
Speaker 10: I think it went off really well. They crammed a

1073
00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:57,560
Speaker 10: ton of people in there. They set a domestic record

1074
00:47:57,560 --> 00:48:00,560
Speaker 10: for most attendees at a United States live event. And

1075
00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:03,160
Speaker 10: just like the succepths they've had that lives had in

1076
00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:06,160
Speaker 10: a place like Australia, when you take something like this

1077
00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:09,640
Speaker 10: to a place that's starved for a professional golf tournament,

1078
00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:11,799
Speaker 10: you're going to have a lot of people show up.

1079
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:18,000
Speaker 10: And again, it was a really good hang. The hang also,

1080
00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:20,120
Speaker 10: I realized that I could go forty five minutes without

1081
00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:22,360
Speaker 10: seeing a golf shot. And then even when I was

1082
00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:24,520
Speaker 10: around sort of the golf, it felt like no one

1083
00:48:24,640 --> 00:48:27,000
Speaker 10: was really paying attention to the golf at many places

1084
00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:28,600
Speaker 10: on the actual golf course.

1085
00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:29,240
Speaker 4: And that's fine.

1086
00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:31,719
Speaker 10: I mean, there are plenty of PGA Tour events where

1087
00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:33,480
Speaker 10: thousands of people show up every day and they have

1088
00:48:33,520 --> 00:48:35,640
Speaker 10: no intention of actually paying attention to the golf.

1089
00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:37,719
Speaker 6: I think the difference though, between.

1090
00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:39,879
Speaker 10: The two of them is the fact that it's they

1091
00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:41,640
Speaker 10: want you to be a part of the golf tournament

1092
00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:43,279
Speaker 10: at some of those places. And then a lot of

1093
00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:45,760
Speaker 10: the spots that I was around, I thought on Sunday

1094
00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:47,480
Speaker 10: in the final round, until it came down to the

1095
00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:50,160
Speaker 10: final hole and the final couple of groups, I don't

1096
00:48:50,160 --> 00:48:52,360
Speaker 10: think it really. I don't think anybody cared if you

1097
00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:54,919
Speaker 10: were paying attention to an actual golf tournament that's taking place,

1098
00:48:54,920 --> 00:48:56,200
Speaker 10: and that just felt kind of odds to me.

1099
00:48:57,040 --> 00:49:00,480
Speaker 2: Well, to follow up on that, you mentioned how you

1100
00:49:00,520 --> 00:49:03,040
Speaker 2: know fun it was, I guess for children or people

1101
00:49:03,040 --> 00:49:05,759
Speaker 2: with kids. Can you elaborate that, elaborate on that a

1102
00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:07,719
Speaker 2: bit more? Was it kind of like the cold city

1103
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:10,320
Speaker 2: vibes we get out in Westfield for the cold training

1104
00:49:10,360 --> 00:49:12,319
Speaker 2: camp was like a state fair. I guess what things

1105
00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:14,440
Speaker 2: did you see that you thought, Okay, if you got

1106
00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:16,600
Speaker 2: some young ones, this would be a nice activity day

1107
00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:16,880
Speaker 2: for you.

1108
00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:19,320
Speaker 10: Yeah, James, I mean, I think the first and foremost

1109
00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:22,200
Speaker 10: is there's just there's more noise, there's more energy, right,

1110
00:49:22,280 --> 00:49:24,160
Speaker 10: so if your kids are running around and they're being

1111
00:49:24,239 --> 00:49:26,520
Speaker 10: you know, they're running up and down a hill. It's

1112
00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:29,080
Speaker 10: not like some weeks where you know you got to

1113
00:49:29,239 --> 00:49:31,160
Speaker 10: try and you know, hone your children in and keep

1114
00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:32,560
Speaker 10: them a little bit quiet. Because you had a golf

1115
00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:35,600
Speaker 10: tournament and then the fan village experience where they had

1116
00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:39,080
Speaker 10: all of the team branded stuff, and that's a separate conversation.

1117
00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:42,000
Speaker 10: I don't really know how the team thing is going

1118
00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:44,720
Speaker 10: to last. Like getting this whole idea of team concept

1119
00:49:44,800 --> 00:49:46,640
Speaker 10: up the ground, there's a business model behind it. I

1120
00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:49,279
Speaker 10: understand what Live is trying to accomplish. I don't really

1121
00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:51,640
Speaker 10: know if from a golf standpoint it was there was

1122
00:49:51,680 --> 00:49:54,960
Speaker 10: really nothing to track the team events outside of a

1123
00:49:54,960 --> 00:49:56,000
Speaker 10: little thing on the leaderboard.

1124
00:49:56,040 --> 00:49:57,239
Speaker 6: It is really hard.

1125
00:49:57,239 --> 00:50:00,000
Speaker 10: They're forcing this team thing I think a little bit strong.

1126
00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:02,000
Speaker 10: But from a brand standpoint, when you went to the

1127
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:04,800
Speaker 10: fan experience, you had all of these really cool, colorful

1128
00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:07,480
Speaker 10: areas where you could hit a flop shot over you know,

1129
00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:10,040
Speaker 10: a cutout of Phil Mickelson or a pettigoat from the

1130
00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:12,360
Speaker 10: range Goats, which I get bubble Watch and travels with

1131
00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:16,279
Speaker 10: actual goats that are in there. And I saw so

1132
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:18,640
Speaker 10: many families that they could just spend an hour in there,

1133
00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:20,920
Speaker 10: and certain weeks in the PGA too are They're a

1134
00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:23,960
Speaker 10: great fan build out and experiences and stuff for kids.

1135
00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:25,960
Speaker 10: But this one to me really like it just felt

1136
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:27,399
Speaker 10: really fun, you know.

1137
00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:28,400
Speaker 6: And you could do some things.

1138
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:30,839
Speaker 10: So again, it was no different than going to the State Fair.

1139
00:50:31,120 --> 00:50:33,359
Speaker 10: Right like you got there was a petting zoo, there

1140
00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:37,920
Speaker 10: were games, there were concessions with fried food for your children.

1141
00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:40,640
Speaker 10: It just happened to be that this State Fair experience

1142
00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:43,440
Speaker 10: was at a professional golf tournament instead of down off

1143
00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:47,640
Speaker 10: of thirty eighth Street. So again I was especially for

1144
00:50:47,719 --> 00:50:50,359
Speaker 10: a town like Westfield, for a suburb that is just

1145
00:50:50,600 --> 00:50:53,120
Speaker 10: you know, full of families. I thought it was great.

1146
00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:56,080
Speaker 10: And you know, we're back again next year here in

1147
00:50:56,080 --> 00:50:59,360
Speaker 10: the city of Minnapolis hosting that event at Chatham Hills.

1148
00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:02,759
Speaker 10: They have twenty thousand again every day next year. I

1149
00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:05,800
Speaker 10: think they probably could because again, if it was a novelty,

1150
00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:07,239
Speaker 10: if it was let's show up and see what this

1151
00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:09,399
Speaker 10: actually was, and you happen to take your kids out,

1152
00:51:09,400 --> 00:51:11,759
Speaker 10: then maybe you'll go again next year because you had

1153
00:51:11,760 --> 00:51:13,960
Speaker 10: a good time, and maybe it's not ninety five degrees

1154
00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:15,719
Speaker 10: outside like it was, because I mean a lot of

1155
00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:19,359
Speaker 10: people suffered through a really hot weekend for a couple

1156
00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:20,960
Speaker 10: of days to be able to see the golf. But yeah,

1157
00:51:21,160 --> 00:51:22,960
Speaker 10: I thought it was really really cool for families to

1158
00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:25,520
Speaker 10: be able to experience that, and it makes it, I think,

1159
00:51:25,600 --> 00:51:28,400
Speaker 10: more of a sell, especially there locally, because you have

1160
00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:29,840
Speaker 10: so many families that are nearby.

1161
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:32,920
Speaker 4: Well, I want to leave you with this and thank

1162
00:51:32,960 --> 00:51:34,440
Speaker 4: you for laying all that out there. And I know

1163
00:51:34,480 --> 00:51:37,200
Speaker 4: again you've got far more important golf related items to

1164
00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:40,719
Speaker 4: do on this Tuesday morning. Let's go here from a

1165
00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:43,319
Speaker 4: central Indiana standpoint and take cricket Stick out of it.

1166
00:51:43,360 --> 00:51:45,560
Speaker 4: We've seen Cricket Stick obviously hold some of the most

1167
00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:50,320
Speaker 4: marque events that you can hold live, obviously pumped a

1168
00:51:50,440 --> 00:51:53,399
Speaker 4: large sum of money into Old Chatham to try and

1169
00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:55,960
Speaker 4: whatever instill a championship vibe on of course that I think,

1170
00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:58,720
Speaker 4: to be fair, probably was not built to necessarily host

1171
00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:02,440
Speaker 4: these sorts of events. It's you know, whatever Bridgewater two

1172
00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:04,120
Speaker 4: point zero. If you want to look at it from

1173
00:52:04,120 --> 00:52:08,760
Speaker 4: a northern suburbs standpoint, if you could have some money

1174
00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:13,960
Speaker 4: funded into a local course, let's just call whatever Indianapolis

1175
00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:18,960
Speaker 4: and surrounding counties to host a championship type of tournament

1176
00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:22,240
Speaker 4: pro golf, I guess to keep it broader, what courses

1177
00:52:22,239 --> 00:52:25,879
Speaker 4: would come to mind? Again, not cricket Stick Division, Yeah,

1178
00:52:25,920 --> 00:52:26,239
Speaker 4: and I.

1179
00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:28,560
Speaker 10: Mean cricket stick is I think hoping that a BMW

1180
00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:30,520
Speaker 10: Championship returns there in the near future.

1181
00:52:30,520 --> 00:52:31,719
Speaker 6: That you've got a US Senior.

1182
00:52:31,480 --> 00:52:33,440
Speaker 10: Open coming up, so that obviously is kind of the

1183
00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:38,160
Speaker 10: main hub when it comes to prestigious I would say,

1184
00:52:38,160 --> 00:52:41,719
Speaker 10: even more legitimate type of golf competition type places. And

1185
00:52:41,760 --> 00:52:44,600
Speaker 10: so that obviously being off the table, you know, Sagamore

1186
00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:46,799
Speaker 10: was I think in the running to almost have that

1187
00:52:46,840 --> 00:52:49,360
Speaker 10: live event. I think that that from a country club standpoint,

1188
00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:51,080
Speaker 10: maybe offers a little bit more of a challenge. And look,

1189
00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:54,120
Speaker 10: it's been a challenging summer from a turf management standpoint

1190
00:52:54,680 --> 00:52:57,279
Speaker 10: for everybody in central Indiana. You know, all the rain

1191
00:52:57,320 --> 00:52:59,919
Speaker 10: and all the heat is really hard to make grass grow.

1192
00:53:00,640 --> 00:53:02,600
Speaker 10: The good grass, I should say the weed grass has

1193
00:53:02,600 --> 00:53:04,120
Speaker 10: no problem with it, but the good grass. And you

1194
00:53:04,120 --> 00:53:06,520
Speaker 10: could see how tax Chatham was over the course of

1195
00:53:06,520 --> 00:53:08,080
Speaker 10: the week. There was a lot of white paint out

1196
00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:10,640
Speaker 10: there for some ground under repair, which was too bad,

1197
00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:12,120
Speaker 10: and I think it forced them to sort of set

1198
00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:14,000
Speaker 10: up the course a little bit differently as well, because

1199
00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:15,760
Speaker 10: they had to deal with so many of those stressed areas.

1200
00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:18,440
Speaker 10: But to answer your actual question, I mean, I mean,

1201
00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:20,759
Speaker 10: there are so many places that if you give me

1202
00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:24,239
Speaker 10: an unlimited budget, Like I'm always very loyal to a

1203
00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:25,920
Speaker 10: place where I played for a long time over at

1204
00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:27,600
Speaker 10: the Fort on the East Side. I think if you

1205
00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:30,080
Speaker 10: pumped a ton of money into that place and got

1206
00:53:30,120 --> 00:53:31,960
Speaker 10: it in the shape that it could be that it's

1207
00:53:32,040 --> 00:53:34,320
Speaker 10: just a world class piece of property. I don't know

1208
00:53:34,320 --> 00:53:36,279
Speaker 10: how big of a test it would be from professional golf.

1209
00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:38,360
Speaker 10: I think you'd see scoring about the same way. But

1210
00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:40,240
Speaker 10: I like the routing up. But I like the potential

1211
00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:43,279
Speaker 10: from an event hosting standpoint out there, look from a

1212
00:53:43,280 --> 00:53:45,480
Speaker 10: party standpoint this past week, I kept saying to myself,

1213
00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:47,920
Speaker 10: I kept saying it last week and again, kudos to

1214
00:53:47,920 --> 00:53:49,799
Speaker 10: the City of Westfieldy're the ones that really took the

1215
00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:51,680
Speaker 10: you know, took the bull by the horns here and

1216
00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:53,719
Speaker 10: said we're going to run this thing. And I don't

1217
00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:56,319
Speaker 10: know the politics of you know, I know sports Core

1218
00:53:56,480 --> 00:53:58,480
Speaker 10: was involved in some way and all these other sorts

1219
00:53:58,480 --> 00:53:59,880
Speaker 10: of things. But if you truly want to make this

1220
00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:02,279
Speaker 10: they blow out event, and you think that you can

1221
00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:04,919
Speaker 10: get more than twenty thousand people there, which you can't

1222
00:54:04,920 --> 00:54:06,920
Speaker 10: do next year because they were capped. You can't have

1223
00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:08,680
Speaker 10: more than twenty thousand people around Chenn Mills.

1224
00:54:08,719 --> 00:54:09,919
Speaker 6: There's just not space for them.

1225
00:54:10,280 --> 00:54:12,880
Speaker 10: This was a perfect event for the Brickyard, and I

1226
00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:16,319
Speaker 10: think that the Brickyard has you know, has certainly shown

1227
00:54:16,360 --> 00:54:18,040
Speaker 10: that it can host big golf events. But if it's

1228
00:54:18,040 --> 00:54:21,200
Speaker 10: truly about the event, if live is the F one

1229
00:54:21,280 --> 00:54:23,440
Speaker 10: of golf, then go to where you've had an F

1230
00:54:23,480 --> 00:54:26,200
Speaker 10: one race. Go where you can fit you know, fifty

1231
00:54:26,239 --> 00:54:28,040
Speaker 10: thousand people if you're going to blow this sort of

1232
00:54:28,080 --> 00:54:30,719
Speaker 10: thing out. So from a live golf standpoint, I think

1233
00:54:30,719 --> 00:54:33,120
Speaker 10: that would be the no brainer if that's where you're

1234
00:54:33,120 --> 00:54:34,760
Speaker 10: looking to do it at an event like that, because

1235
00:54:34,760 --> 00:54:36,480
Speaker 10: it is more about the event than it is about

1236
00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:38,600
Speaker 10: the golf. But yeah, there are so many cool plays.

1237
00:54:38,600 --> 00:54:40,240
Speaker 10: I mean, I would love to see those guys stretch

1238
00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:42,960
Speaker 10: this seventy seven hundred at Purgatory if you put a

1239
00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:44,600
Speaker 10: little bit of money into that golf course to make

1240
00:54:44,640 --> 00:54:46,480
Speaker 10: it ready for a championship. But there's so many things

1241
00:54:46,520 --> 00:54:48,640
Speaker 10: that go into that logistics. How to get people there

1242
00:54:48,800 --> 00:54:51,440
Speaker 10: where you're going to put hospitality, the footprint has to

1243
00:54:51,480 --> 00:54:53,759
Speaker 10: be absolutely right, and I just keep thinking, if this

1244
00:54:53,840 --> 00:54:55,840
Speaker 10: is more about the event than it is about the golf,

1245
00:54:56,080 --> 00:54:57,600
Speaker 10: then there's no reason why you shouldn't have it at

1246
00:54:57,640 --> 00:54:58,040
Speaker 10: the track.

1247
00:54:58,440 --> 00:55:00,440
Speaker 1: I would love to see an event there. Last thing

1248
00:55:00,480 --> 00:55:03,359
Speaker 1: before I go Tour Championship this weekend at East Lake

1249
00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:07,560
Speaker 1: in Atlanta. Is there any stopping Scotty Shuffler from anything

1250
00:55:07,600 --> 00:55:08,200
Speaker 1: at this point?

1251
00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:09,839
Speaker 6: Yeah? Fatigue.

1252
00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:12,239
Speaker 10: I mean he's had to play high leverage golf now

1253
00:55:12,280 --> 00:55:14,520
Speaker 10: for two weeks in a row in both Memphis and

1254
00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:17,560
Speaker 10: a steamy Baltimore. I'll be on the call shout out

1255
00:55:17,719 --> 00:55:20,640
Speaker 10: on FJA to a radio starting on Thursday. I think

1256
00:55:20,640 --> 00:55:22,040
Speaker 10: it's the only thing that can get in his way

1257
00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:23,799
Speaker 10: if he's had to play so much, and the fact

1258
00:55:23,840 --> 00:55:26,560
Speaker 10: that they've adjusted this year and it's everybody's starting at

1259
00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:28,759
Speaker 10: the same score. There's no more adjusted strokes. He has

1260
00:55:28,840 --> 00:55:32,080
Speaker 10: no benefit whatsoever having been the dominant player through the

1261
00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:34,600
Speaker 10: playoffs and through this season. So I think the one

1262
00:55:34,640 --> 00:55:36,520
Speaker 10: thing that could stop him is just fatigue.

1263
00:55:37,440 --> 00:55:37,640
Speaker 6: You know.

1264
00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:39,919
Speaker 10: I'm sure he's not doing a heavy load right now

1265
00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:42,800
Speaker 10: of lead up to it and working out and practicing.

1266
00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:45,840
Speaker 10: He's probably managing his energy as best he can. But

1267
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:48,160
Speaker 10: Rory took the first playoff event off and plays really

1268
00:55:48,160 --> 00:55:50,160
Speaker 10: well at east Lake, and he hasn't had to play

1269
00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:52,320
Speaker 10: high leverage golf the last couple of weeks like Scotty

1270
00:55:52,400 --> 00:55:53,960
Speaker 10: Has and a few other players I think would fit

1271
00:55:54,000 --> 00:55:56,440
Speaker 10: into that mold as well. So can somebody beat him

1272
00:55:56,440 --> 00:55:59,480
Speaker 10: this week? Absolutely? If he's a favorite for a reason. Absolutely,

1273
00:55:59,480 --> 00:56:01,160
Speaker 10: we haven't seen anybody play golf like this.

1274
00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:02,160
Speaker 6: Ince Tiger Woods.

1275
00:56:02,280 --> 00:56:04,000
Speaker 1: Always good to talk to you and hear your voice. Man,

1276
00:56:04,160 --> 00:56:05,000
Speaker 1: you're the best. Will.

1277
00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:08,080
Speaker 4: Thanks, guys, have a blast today, Send me a ricap.

1278
00:56:09,280 --> 00:56:11,920
Speaker 1: There you go. Will Haskett on the Payless Liquors hotline

1279
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:15,840
Speaker 1: right there. I know golf is not your number one game, James,

1280
00:56:15,880 --> 00:56:19,520
Speaker 1: but interesting that once again, does that sound a tiny

1281
00:56:19,560 --> 00:56:22,239
Speaker 1: NATS void? By the way, what like James is a

1282
00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:26,440
Speaker 1: very non big golf fan. Does what Will just described

1283
00:56:26,520 --> 00:56:29,200
Speaker 1: out there? Rob says live golf reminds me of the

1284
00:56:29,239 --> 00:56:31,280
Speaker 1: snake pit at the five hundred. It's a party inside

1285
00:56:31,320 --> 00:56:33,279
Speaker 1: a sports event. Does that sound appealing for you to

1286
00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:35,400
Speaker 1: attend more so than a real PJ two.

1287
00:56:35,760 --> 00:56:36,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, And honestly it does.

1288
00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:39,120
Speaker 2: When once you said like State Fair vibe, I was like, Okay,

1289
00:56:39,200 --> 00:56:40,759
Speaker 2: I can get with that, and as long as I

1290
00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:43,520
Speaker 2: don't have to like necessarily stand there and you know,

1291
00:56:43,640 --> 00:56:46,839
Speaker 2: be this pristine golf fan that doesn't say anything and

1292
00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:49,719
Speaker 2: keep quiet and all this stuff. If there is music going,

1293
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:52,480
Speaker 2: you know, I've seen kids having a good time, food

1294
00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:54,600
Speaker 2: being offered. I think that would be something I'll be

1295
00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:57,400
Speaker 2: interested in. Honestly, it's something that I will try to

1296
00:56:57,440 --> 00:56:59,560
Speaker 2: actually try to make a move to next year if

1297
00:56:59,560 --> 00:56:59,920
Speaker 2: I get there.

1298
00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:01,320
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1299
00:57:01,600 --> 00:57:04,200
Speaker 4: Here, to me, it feels like, you know, watching a

1300
00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:06,160
Speaker 4: pro am on a Wednesday, where no one's really taking

1301
00:57:06,200 --> 00:57:08,840
Speaker 4: that seriously. Someone I'd reach out buddy of mine. I

1302
00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:10,080
Speaker 4: was like, hey, what do you think He's kind of

1303
00:57:10,080 --> 00:57:12,040
Speaker 4: felt like a minor league baseball game. You know, just

1304
00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:14,520
Speaker 4: kind of that vibe, which again I I it's not

1305
00:57:14,600 --> 00:57:18,120
Speaker 4: my cup of tea, but from people that went, I think,

1306
00:57:18,240 --> 00:57:20,560
Speaker 4: especially if you fall into much more of a casual

1307
00:57:21,120 --> 00:57:25,520
Speaker 4: aspect to it. It was appealing. Boy. Now now he's

1308
00:57:25,520 --> 00:57:28,200
Speaker 4: got my mind racing on golf courses in central Indiana.

1309
00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:31,720
Speaker 4: That could they got some big, old saudy money behind it?

1310
00:57:32,200 --> 00:57:33,800
Speaker 4: What could they turn their course into to host a

1311
00:57:33,840 --> 00:57:36,160
Speaker 4: championship type of event? I mean, Brickyard we have seen

1312
00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:40,080
Speaker 4: host some events, not at I think even the level

1313
00:57:40,120 --> 00:57:42,640
Speaker 4: of live certainly not what cricket stick has held, but

1314
00:57:43,480 --> 00:57:45,160
Speaker 4: just an interesting thought process.

1315
00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:48,520
Speaker 1: For like they used to have out there women in

1316
00:57:48,560 --> 00:57:50,400
Speaker 1: Tech was I thought I went there a couple.

1317
00:57:50,200 --> 00:57:52,840
Speaker 4: Of Senior Tour event they had well, so yeah, they've

1318
00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:54,600
Speaker 4: done both of that. I think there's been rumors of

1319
00:57:54,600 --> 00:57:57,160
Speaker 4: what Roger Pinske would and I don't know. I mean,

1320
00:57:57,240 --> 00:57:59,800
Speaker 4: is there is there a Fox element to I am

1321
00:57:59,840 --> 00:58:00,320
Speaker 4: s again?

1322
00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:01,160
Speaker 1: Would be?

1323
00:58:01,280 --> 00:58:04,000
Speaker 4: Didn't Greg Greg Shaw mention you know in Paddy Yeah

1324
00:58:04,120 --> 00:58:08,400
Speaker 4: and so okay? Fox aired what this weekend Golf Live

1325
00:58:08,400 --> 00:58:12,280
Speaker 4: Gold they are live? Now? Fox is what thirty take

1326
00:58:12,400 --> 00:58:14,960
Speaker 4: in IndyCar. Do you start connecting the dots and say,

1327
00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:18,120
Speaker 4: could there be a brick Yard crossing presence there?

1328
00:58:18,160 --> 00:58:20,560
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be shocked at all. I wouldn't be shocked

1329
00:58:20,560 --> 00:58:23,720
Speaker 1: at all. And it just goes back on the underlying

1330
00:58:23,760 --> 00:58:27,080
Speaker 1: thing too. It just doesn't seem to matter in Indianapolis,

1331
00:58:27,120 --> 00:58:30,160
Speaker 1: whether it's a Super Bowl, a National championship, college football game,

1332
00:58:30,720 --> 00:58:34,520
Speaker 1: the Final Four, whatever it happens to be, All Star games,

1333
00:58:35,120 --> 00:58:38,760
Speaker 1: LPGA tournaments, senior golf tournaments, live tournaments. We've had the

1334
00:58:38,800 --> 00:58:42,560
Speaker 1: PGA out there obviously at Crooked Stick a couple of times,

1335
00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:45,800
Speaker 1: with some great results in big time thing. This is

1336
00:58:46,840 --> 00:58:48,880
Speaker 1: again I say it all the time. People probably get

1337
00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:51,120
Speaker 1: tired of me hearing it, but Indianapolis is as big

1338
00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:54,320
Speaker 1: as sports city as there is in America, just consistently,

1339
00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:56,960
Speaker 1: always stuff coming around.

1340
00:58:57,160 --> 00:58:57,440
Speaker 3: Well.

1341
00:58:57,280 --> 00:59:00,560
Speaker 4: I love that, especially with the suburbs being at the

1342
00:59:00,600 --> 00:59:01,479
Speaker 4: population size.

1343
00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:03,000
Speaker 2: I was going to say, can we claim with the

1344
00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:04,960
Speaker 2: Westfield set up as Indianapolis is that.

1345
00:59:04,920 --> 00:59:06,200
Speaker 4: Now there was part of me it felt bad for

1346
00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:09,520
Speaker 4: Weerfield because they kept on saying Live Indianapolis on the TV.

1347
00:59:09,680 --> 00:59:11,960
Speaker 4: I'm like, this is a good that's how they branded it.

1348
00:59:12,080 --> 00:59:14,600
Speaker 4: Ten miles from from Indy. But you know, when you

1349
00:59:14,600 --> 00:59:16,560
Speaker 4: think about the Fisher's Event Center, you think about the

1350
00:59:16,560 --> 00:59:19,920
Speaker 4: new Arena Noblesville, you think about live golf. I mean again,

1351
00:59:20,040 --> 00:59:23,440
Speaker 4: you are starting to get much more than just you know,

1352
00:59:23,520 --> 00:59:26,360
Speaker 4: four sixty five and inside of it there, So I

1353
00:59:26,440 --> 00:59:29,919
Speaker 4: promise we'll move on from the old live golf talk.

1354
00:59:29,960 --> 00:59:32,160
Speaker 4: I know it's not maybe the most prominent thing people

1355
00:59:32,200 --> 00:59:34,360
Speaker 4: want to listen to, but I did think it was

1356
00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:37,400
Speaker 4: important to, you know, offer a little bit of perspective.

1357
00:59:37,400 --> 00:59:39,240
Speaker 4: I know I am not a fan of it, but

1358
00:59:39,360 --> 00:59:41,200
Speaker 4: I know I don't speak for everyone by any means, so.

1359
00:59:41,240 --> 00:59:42,760
Speaker 3: You sure don't. Because I am now.

1360
00:59:42,760 --> 00:59:44,400
Speaker 4: I appreciate it. Will's thoughts on it?

1361
00:59:44,640 --> 00:59:47,080
Speaker 5: What if Max got into live golf? Would you disown

1362
00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:49,680
Speaker 5: him or would you appreciate that? If he like got

1363
00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:51,480
Speaker 5: into golf. But he was more of a live fan.

1364
00:59:52,040 --> 00:59:54,280
Speaker 4: So he's a Bryson fan. He's a film fan.

1365
00:59:54,440 --> 00:59:57,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, going to the petting and all that stuff. I

1366
00:59:57,600 --> 00:59:58,240
Speaker 5: got him into it.

1367
00:59:58,280 --> 00:59:59,880
Speaker 4: I might have put him in that porter potty and

1368
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:01,400
Speaker 4: shut the door ward.

1369
01:00:01,520 --> 01:00:01,720
Speaker 11: Wow.

1370
01:00:01,880 --> 01:00:05,240
Speaker 3: Wow, you know what I respected. I gotta teach your

1371
01:00:05,280 --> 01:00:05,960
Speaker 3: kids some loyalty.

1372
01:00:06,080 --> 01:00:13,200
Speaker 4: Thank you, James. All right, Mark, let's check things James.

1373
01:00:11,040 --> 01:00:14,280
Speaker 7: The Morning Checkdown on nuety sweet five and one oh

1374
01:00:14,320 --> 01:00:15,520
Speaker 7: seven five the fan?

1375
01:00:15,920 --> 01:00:17,640
Speaker 12: Can you do that with your fan? Can you do

1376
01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:19,640
Speaker 12: that with your own children? But where do you draw

1377
01:00:19,680 --> 01:00:22,320
Speaker 12: the line in sports fandom with your own children. Do

1378
01:00:22,400 --> 01:00:26,160
Speaker 12: you let them choose or do you demand that they

1379
01:00:26,240 --> 01:00:26,960
Speaker 12: follow you?

1380
01:00:27,600 --> 01:00:29,160
Speaker 1: I think you have to let at a certain point

1381
01:00:29,160 --> 01:00:32,120
Speaker 1: they're gonna choose anyway. I think whether you're whether you

1382
01:00:32,280 --> 01:00:33,120
Speaker 1: demand it or not.

1383
01:00:33,320 --> 01:00:37,080
Speaker 2: I mean where I was raised, I don't know. It

1384
01:00:37,160 --> 01:00:39,680
Speaker 2: just depends on if you're a hater or not. You know, genetically,

1385
01:00:39,920 --> 01:00:41,400
Speaker 2: I think it was a hater. My dad was a

1386
01:00:41,440 --> 01:00:43,160
Speaker 2: Knicks fan growing up, and I just could not get

1387
01:00:43,160 --> 01:00:43,440
Speaker 2: with that.

1388
01:00:43,760 --> 01:00:45,080
Speaker 1: No check Mark the girls.

1389
01:00:45,120 --> 01:00:47,280
Speaker 4: If all of a sudden they came home and were like, well,

1390
01:00:47,360 --> 01:00:50,960
Speaker 4: you know, Cindy lou A Recess is a Reds fan.

1391
01:00:51,000 --> 01:00:52,640
Speaker 4: I think I'm gonna be a Reds fan. I mean,

1392
01:00:52,800 --> 01:00:55,480
Speaker 4: that's not gonna go over too well. I wouldn't love it,

1393
01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:57,960
Speaker 4: but I would give them two stipulations. You can pick

1394
01:00:58,000 --> 01:00:59,880
Speaker 4: whatever team you want root for, as long as it

1395
01:00:59,920 --> 01:01:05,800
Speaker 4: is isn't the Cardinals or the Packers.

1396
01:01:04,360 --> 01:01:06,040
Speaker 1: In which case you want to get out of the whale.

1397
01:01:06,320 --> 01:01:07,320
Speaker 5: You want to get disowned.

1398
01:01:07,840 --> 01:01:12,480
Speaker 4: You coming in Brownsburg, Green and Yellow, and Nora or

1399
01:01:12,600 --> 01:01:16,160
Speaker 4: Addison that they are a Packers fan. Mark someone, please.

1400
01:01:16,800 --> 01:01:18,840
Speaker 1: Mark's gonna be all like, hey, I'm watching the Cubs

1401
01:01:18,840 --> 01:01:21,040
Speaker 1: game today. You guys have work to do in the backyard.

1402
01:01:21,120 --> 01:01:23,840
Speaker 5: Oh, they for sure will be doing. Yeah, that's marks

1403
01:01:23,880 --> 01:01:24,320
Speaker 5: they'd be doing.

1404
01:01:24,400 --> 01:01:26,440
Speaker 2: My parents' counter to that being taken out of the

1405
01:01:26,440 --> 01:01:28,080
Speaker 2: wheel will be like, well, we're broke anyway, so you

1406
01:01:28,080 --> 01:01:28,919
Speaker 2: wouldn't getting nothing.

1407
01:01:28,960 --> 01:01:32,400
Speaker 5: Regardless, you're sleeping the clubhouse in the backyard. From here on.

1408
01:01:32,400 --> 01:01:36,480
Speaker 1: Out story of the day the Indianapolis Colts. We think

1409
01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:39,160
Speaker 1: James Boyd will get a starter named at about eleven

1410
01:01:39,160 --> 01:01:41,800
Speaker 1: o'clock this morning, or does this continue for another week?

1411
01:01:42,160 --> 01:01:44,760
Speaker 2: Who knows, but I would expect something to be said

1412
01:01:44,760 --> 01:01:46,560
Speaker 2: today on the quarterback front, and I would hope that

1413
01:01:46,680 --> 01:01:47,160
Speaker 2: is the case.

1414
01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:48,040
Speaker 3: I'm prepared for that.

1415
01:01:48,160 --> 01:01:52,000
Speaker 2: And Shane stykeing is eleven fifteen am to day over

1416
01:01:52,160 --> 01:01:53,920
Speaker 2: at West fifty sixth Street.

1417
01:01:53,920 --> 01:01:55,840
Speaker 3: I will be there and we will bring the latest

1418
01:01:55,840 --> 01:01:57,280
Speaker 3: to you. You're I want to send by the fan

1419
01:01:57,360 --> 01:01:57,960
Speaker 3: for sure.

1420
01:01:57,720 --> 01:02:00,680
Speaker 1: Looking forward to that. Kevin Bowe. We also have to

1421
01:02:00,720 --> 01:02:04,080
Speaker 1: talk about a signing on defense at cornerback, and a

1422
01:02:04,120 --> 01:02:06,880
Speaker 1: pretty major signing as well, a five million dollar one

1423
01:02:06,960 --> 01:02:09,160
Speaker 1: year deal for Xavian Howard the cornerback.

1424
01:02:09,320 --> 01:02:12,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, very decorated corner. You have to go back a

1425
01:02:12,320 --> 01:02:15,280
Speaker 4: little bit on the resume though to see him playing

1426
01:02:15,320 --> 01:02:17,760
Speaker 4: at the level that he was playing at in Miami.

1427
01:02:18,520 --> 01:02:21,600
Speaker 4: Some ties with Louianna Rumo first two years in the NFL,

1428
01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:25,280
Speaker 4: lou was his position coach. But Xavian is thirty two

1429
01:02:25,360 --> 01:02:27,880
Speaker 4: years old. He did not play in the NFL last season.

1430
01:02:28,400 --> 01:02:30,880
Speaker 4: You do not find many thirty two year old quarterback

1431
01:02:30,920 --> 01:02:34,720
Speaker 4: cornerbacks period, let alone them playing at a very effective level.

1432
01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:37,840
Speaker 4: So we'll see. I think it's a fascinating sign. He

1433
01:02:37,920 --> 01:02:40,240
Speaker 4: had a position that has had a slew of injuries.

1434
01:02:40,280 --> 01:02:42,760
Speaker 4: And again, James, the vibe I got from Loui an

1435
01:02:42,840 --> 01:02:45,720
Speaker 4: Arumo yesterday. This is not someone that's going to come

1436
01:02:45,760 --> 01:02:48,200
Speaker 4: in here and simply pass out coffee to the youngsters.

1437
01:02:48,280 --> 01:02:50,200
Speaker 4: This is someone that is going to come in here

1438
01:02:50,240 --> 01:02:52,560
Speaker 4: and I get the vibe, is going to play and ironically,

1439
01:02:52,960 --> 01:02:56,000
Speaker 4: your opponent Week one at Miami Dolphins.

1440
01:02:55,760 --> 01:02:58,360
Speaker 1: All right, and they will be playing Saturday afternoon in

1441
01:02:58,440 --> 01:03:00,840
Speaker 1: Cincinnati against the Bengals for the third and final pre

1442
01:03:00,920 --> 01:03:03,160
Speaker 1: season game. Now, it'll start at one, and we'll have

1443
01:03:03,200 --> 01:03:05,840
Speaker 1: all the pregame coverage for you, including the game itself

1444
01:03:05,880 --> 01:03:07,640
Speaker 1: right here. On ninety three five and one oh seven five.

1445
01:03:08,480 --> 01:03:11,200
Speaker 1: Another off day for the Indiana Fever. They were off yesterday.

1446
01:03:11,280 --> 01:03:13,760
Speaker 1: No word on the severity of the injury to the

1447
01:03:13,840 --> 01:03:17,000
Speaker 1: knee of Sophie Cunningham, which we watched on Sunday. She

1448
01:03:17,120 --> 01:03:20,560
Speaker 1: was scheduled to get an MRI yesterday, James, but I

1449
01:03:20,560 --> 01:03:23,640
Speaker 1: haven't seen anything anywhere of any update on how that

1450
01:03:23,680 --> 01:03:24,200
Speaker 1: turned out.

1451
01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:26,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't have one, So just wait and see

1452
01:03:26,640 --> 01:03:27,040
Speaker 3: what happens.

1453
01:03:27,080 --> 01:03:28,200
Speaker 4: He's waiting for a podcast.

1454
01:03:28,240 --> 01:03:31,720
Speaker 3: Maybe maybe could you imagine Lord have mercy?

1455
01:03:32,160 --> 01:03:33,520
Speaker 4: I say that half joking.

1456
01:03:35,080 --> 01:03:37,280
Speaker 3: Well, I would hope that we get an official team update.

1457
01:03:37,640 --> 01:03:39,280
Speaker 1: All right, We'll find out and we'll keep it here

1458
01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:42,160
Speaker 1: on that later on today as well. Major League Baseball yesterday,

1459
01:03:42,480 --> 01:03:45,600
Speaker 1: big series for the Chicago Cubs this week. They start

1460
01:03:45,640 --> 01:03:48,280
Speaker 1: the week trailing the Milwaukee Brewers in that Central Division.

1461
01:03:48,320 --> 01:03:50,400
Speaker 1: The Brewers, of course, coming off a fourteen game winning

1462
01:03:50,400 --> 01:03:53,280
Speaker 1: streak that was snapped by the Reds a few days ago.

1463
01:03:53,320 --> 01:03:56,040
Speaker 1: But last night the scheduled double header, the first one

1464
01:03:56,320 --> 01:03:58,480
Speaker 1: Brewers shut out the Cubs seven to nothing. The second

1465
01:03:58,480 --> 01:04:01,360
Speaker 1: one was mercifully arc postponed.

1466
01:04:01,800 --> 01:04:03,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, the Cups kind of look like Kevin Bowen at

1467
01:04:03,520 --> 01:04:06,240
Speaker 5: Sausage got their hands deep in the porta potty, just

1468
01:04:06,240 --> 01:04:09,000
Speaker 5: digging around trying to find something and they're finding a

1469
01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:10,120
Speaker 5: whole lot of nothing right now.

1470
01:04:10,200 --> 01:04:14,160
Speaker 4: All right, digging is a very loose term. There it was.

1471
01:04:14,120 --> 01:04:15,600
Speaker 1: You just reached down grab the handle.

1472
01:04:16,200 --> 01:04:18,000
Speaker 4: Floating well, and I think some other items in the

1473
01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:20,439
Speaker 4: porter body might have been contributing to the floating there.

1474
01:04:20,560 --> 01:04:23,400
Speaker 4: By the way, David here in the YouTube chat says, uh,

1475
01:04:23,440 --> 01:04:26,040
Speaker 4: my daughter took a full candy bar from a Steelers

1476
01:04:26,080 --> 01:04:28,280
Speaker 4: fan during Halloween to say that they are better than

1477
01:04:28,320 --> 01:04:31,040
Speaker 4: the Colts. Mark, if one of your daughters was presented

1478
01:04:31,080 --> 01:04:34,200
Speaker 4: a full sized candy bar on Halloween and they had

1479
01:04:34,200 --> 01:04:38,240
Speaker 4: to say, go, pack, go, would you allow that?

1480
01:04:40,960 --> 01:04:41,280
Speaker 1: I would.

1481
01:04:41,800 --> 01:04:43,840
Speaker 5: I would say you can get that. I would write

1482
01:04:43,840 --> 01:04:46,040
Speaker 5: the address down first of all, like I'm gonna bring

1483
01:04:46,080 --> 01:04:48,280
Speaker 5: a carton of eggs later and we're gonna you guys

1484
01:04:48,280 --> 01:04:52,280
Speaker 5: can make some omelets in the morning. No, no, like

1485
01:04:52,360 --> 01:04:53,600
Speaker 5: we will. We will take our business.

1486
01:04:54,000 --> 01:04:55,840
Speaker 1: You might get a nibble off that little.

1487
01:04:57,320 --> 01:04:59,520
Speaker 5: We'll go to five below, We'll go to dollar. I

1488
01:04:59,560 --> 01:05:01,800
Speaker 5: will get you a Kingside candy bar. You say those words,

1489
01:05:01,840 --> 01:05:03,200
Speaker 5: and you're gonna get a bar of soap.

1490
01:05:03,240 --> 01:05:06,320
Speaker 3: I could totally see Mark TP in a house like

1491
01:05:06,320 --> 01:05:06,959
Speaker 3: back in the day.

1492
01:05:06,880 --> 01:05:08,480
Speaker 4: Like I could see the EyeBlack.

1493
01:05:08,520 --> 01:05:10,080
Speaker 5: I we act a house for sure, because they gave

1494
01:05:10,080 --> 01:05:11,760
Speaker 5: out fake dollar bills back in the day.

1495
01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:14,200
Speaker 1: It makes me wonder, Kevin, have you bribed your kids

1496
01:05:14,240 --> 01:05:16,440
Speaker 1: with anything to get them to go along with a

1497
01:05:16,440 --> 01:05:17,320
Speaker 1: certain again.

1498
01:05:17,360 --> 01:05:19,080
Speaker 4: We were a house divided back during the Notre Dame

1499
01:05:19,120 --> 01:05:21,600
Speaker 4: Indiana playoff game. And I think Rosie knows how much

1500
01:05:21,640 --> 01:05:24,080
Speaker 4: Notre Dame means to me, and so she does occasionally

1501
01:05:24,080 --> 01:05:26,000
Speaker 4: like to poke fun at it. But Rosie and I

1502
01:05:26,040 --> 01:05:27,880
Speaker 4: are going to Notre Dame perdue here in the month.

1503
01:05:28,520 --> 01:05:29,560
Speaker 1: Who's she gonna be rooting for.

1504
01:05:29,800 --> 01:05:33,040
Speaker 4: She's gonna be decked down, and.

1505
01:05:32,000 --> 01:05:33,640
Speaker 3: I hope she is going to be for a team

1506
01:05:33,640 --> 01:05:34,480
Speaker 3: that will actually win.

1507
01:05:34,720 --> 01:05:36,600
Speaker 4: I think Maddy thought that was a dumb idea, but

1508
01:05:36,640 --> 01:05:39,720
Speaker 4: I mean, spend the money on the Notre Dame game.

1509
01:05:39,720 --> 01:05:40,440
Speaker 4: But whatever.

1510
01:05:40,520 --> 01:05:42,680
Speaker 3: Here I am great Weather Costlewall season is here. I

1511
01:05:42,720 --> 01:05:43,520
Speaker 3: am Team Kevin On.

1512
01:05:43,680 --> 01:05:45,280
Speaker 4: By the way, I saw this instagram. Let me see

1513
01:05:45,320 --> 01:05:46,400
Speaker 4: what I can find it the other day that I

1514
01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:49,200
Speaker 4: meant to share with you guys. That to me sums

1515
01:05:49,280 --> 01:05:56,600
Speaker 4: up everything about fall sports fandom. Okay, fifty okay, it's

1516
01:05:56,600 --> 01:05:59,600
Speaker 4: mid October, fifty eight degrees out. You're playing eighteen holes

1517
01:05:59,600 --> 01:06:01,760
Speaker 4: of the Boy before a day of football. Your entire

1518
01:06:01,800 --> 01:06:04,760
Speaker 4: fantasy football team has their achilles ruptured, and your star

1519
01:06:04,840 --> 01:06:08,840
Speaker 4: player's Adam Thielen. Your parlay busted on the first play,

1520
01:06:08,920 --> 01:06:11,280
Speaker 4: and your favorite team is being dominated by the Chiefs.

1521
01:06:11,440 --> 01:06:14,040
Speaker 4: Does that not sound like a fall weekend? It sounds

1522
01:06:14,040 --> 01:06:15,560
Speaker 4: like a Mark Dyton weekend right there?

1523
01:06:16,400 --> 01:06:17,600
Speaker 5: Or second?

1524
01:06:19,320 --> 01:06:23,440
Speaker 4: How many times and my fantasy football career, I've literally

1525
01:06:23,480 --> 01:06:25,880
Speaker 4: said to myself, I think Adam feelin is due today.

1526
01:06:27,760 --> 01:06:30,200
Speaker 1: Speaking of fantasy football, we're going to take one more

1527
01:06:30,200 --> 01:06:31,920
Speaker 1: interrant later on today, Mark.

1528
01:06:31,760 --> 01:06:33,760
Speaker 5: We can if we've got plenty of teams to fill up.

1529
01:06:33,760 --> 01:06:35,280
Speaker 5: So yeah, we got to come up with a question

1530
01:06:35,360 --> 01:06:37,040
Speaker 5: and make people work at it. But yeah, we can

1531
01:06:37,080 --> 01:06:37,320
Speaker 5: do that.

1532
01:06:37,360 --> 01:06:39,360
Speaker 1: We will do that in the nine o'clock hour. One

1533
01:06:39,360 --> 01:06:42,640
Speaker 1: other baseball note, the Reds did beat the Angels last

1534
01:06:42,720 --> 01:06:44,920
Speaker 1: night late. Four to one was the final score there.

1535
01:06:44,960 --> 01:06:47,240
Speaker 1: Gavin Lux had a two run home run with an

1536
01:06:47,240 --> 01:06:49,280
Speaker 1: early lead. Kevin, you decided to get hey, I can

1537
01:06:49,320 --> 01:06:50,080
Speaker 1: go to bed now right.

1538
01:06:50,280 --> 01:06:50,480
Speaker 9: Yes.

1539
01:06:50,600 --> 01:06:52,320
Speaker 4: I was very happy about that. And to wake up

1540
01:06:52,760 --> 01:06:54,880
Speaker 4: and see that the Reds did win and shout out

1541
01:06:54,920 --> 01:06:57,160
Speaker 4: to Tyres Halliburton. I know this happened over the weekend,

1542
01:06:57,200 --> 01:07:01,520
Speaker 4: but donated. Was it three million? Yes? To is it?

1543

1544
01:07:06,800 --> 01:07:08,480

1545
01:07:08,600 --> 01:07:11,720
Speaker 4: high school community and his community in general. So he's

1546
01:07:11,720 --> 01:07:13,680
Speaker 4: done some puma stuff with this high school before and

1547
01:07:13,720 --> 01:07:18,720
Speaker 4: now obviously a massive financial contribution there. So really cool

1548
01:07:18,720 --> 01:07:21,640
Speaker 4: to see. I know that behind closed doors. Who knows

1549
01:07:21,640 --> 01:07:24,080
Speaker 4: what everybody's like, but Tyru Saliburton strikes me as a

1550
01:07:24,080 --> 01:07:27,040
Speaker 4: pretty genuine, genuine human and that's rare.

1551
01:07:27,240 --> 01:07:28,920
Speaker 1: I love it, love it, love it all right, coming

1552
01:07:29,000 --> 01:07:30,440
Speaker 1: up on a moment, we'll check in on the fan

1553
01:07:30,560 --> 01:07:33,240
Speaker 1: text line. Some folks coming through with questions. We've got

1554
01:07:33,280 --> 01:07:35,320
Speaker 1: answers for you. It's next ninety three five and one

1555
01:07:35,320 --> 01:07:39,320
Speaker 1: O seven five the Fan, Good morning, Welcome into the

1556
01:07:39,320 --> 01:07:42,840
Speaker 1: Fan Morning Show. Got jab groove it again.

1557
01:07:43,040 --> 01:07:46,520
Speaker 3: I'm suassy, but I am for real.

1558
01:07:49,520 --> 01:07:51,000
Speaker 1: What did you just do with the microphone there? He

1559
01:07:51,080 --> 01:07:52,280
Speaker 1: just swung it back and forth.

1560
01:07:52,920 --> 01:07:55,440
Speaker 5: It was in my way and it's it's swung back

1561
01:07:55,440 --> 01:07:55,920
Speaker 5: towards me.

1562
01:07:56,560 --> 01:07:59,680
Speaker 1: I like that. We're hoping to get word on a

1563
01:07:59,680 --> 01:08:02,000
Speaker 1: starting quarterback for the Colts today. But there's no guarantee

1564
01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:04,040
Speaker 1: that we will. We think there will be an announcement

1565
01:08:04,080 --> 01:08:04,800
Speaker 1: that they'll be hoping.

1566
01:08:04,960 --> 01:08:06,040
Speaker 4: Why not play that one more.

1567
01:08:06,120 --> 01:08:07,800
Speaker 1: You want one more week of drummer.

1568
01:08:09,120 --> 01:08:12,880
Speaker 4: Expectation, Play them Saturday afternoon against the Bengals, for all

1569
01:08:12,880 --> 01:08:14,920
Speaker 4: I care. If the Colts reached the point where they

1570
01:08:14,960 --> 01:08:19,080
Speaker 4: like can't play they're starters on Saturday because they're too hurt, probably,

1571
01:08:19,400 --> 01:08:21,479
Speaker 4: like if they wanted to do the dress rehearsal thing,

1572
01:08:22,680 --> 01:08:24,920
Speaker 4: are they are? They just actually a very good question.

1573
01:08:25,000 --> 01:08:27,759
Speaker 2: I probably they probably have reached that point, Kevin, because

1574
01:08:27,760 --> 01:08:31,040
Speaker 2: I was going through a list of injuries even before

1575
01:08:32,040 --> 01:08:35,240
Speaker 2: Saturday's game took place. I mean when our Ryman was out,

1576
01:08:35,439 --> 01:08:38,160
Speaker 2: Josh Downs was out, Alec Pearce was out, Kenny Moore

1577
01:08:38,240 --> 01:08:41,360
Speaker 2: was out, Nick Cross was out for getting a few

1578
01:08:41,600 --> 01:08:44,479
Speaker 2: quitty pay was out, you know, Jaylen Carlile. So yeah,

1579
01:08:44,520 --> 01:08:46,240
Speaker 2: I would think these are all players that are starters,

1580
01:08:46,280 --> 01:08:47,479
Speaker 2: are competing for starting spots.

1581
01:08:47,800 --> 01:08:49,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, Brad Smith got hurt in the games. Yeah, Franklin

1582
01:08:50,000 --> 01:08:50,320
Speaker 4: is still not.

1583
01:08:50,439 --> 01:08:52,200
Speaker 3: I guess at some point you certainly do have to

1584
01:08:52,200 --> 01:08:52,920
Speaker 3: have the conversation.

1585
01:08:53,040 --> 01:08:53,160
Speaker 6: Now.

1586
01:08:53,160 --> 01:08:55,800
Speaker 2: I do want to get a quick update on Zaire

1587
01:08:56,000 --> 01:08:58,439
Speaker 2: and I know they were saying they're just bringing them along,

1588
01:08:58,680 --> 01:09:00,599
Speaker 2: but you know, I would think that he will want

1589
01:09:00,640 --> 01:09:03,160
Speaker 2: to get him in particular, will want to get some

1590
01:09:03,400 --> 01:09:06,439
Speaker 2: you know, live game reps if he can before the

1591
01:09:06,439 --> 01:09:09,040
Speaker 2: regular season starts. So I'm curious about that because I

1592
01:09:09,040 --> 01:09:11,720
Speaker 2: was a little shocked that he wasn't out there to

1593
01:09:11,840 --> 01:09:13,559
Speaker 2: play at all. I know he was dressed for the game,

1594
01:09:13,680 --> 01:09:15,919
Speaker 2: but he just wasn't available Saturday.

1595
01:09:16,080 --> 01:09:18,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, And I will say, just to kind of go

1596
01:09:18,320 --> 01:09:21,519
Speaker 4: back to yesterday and James, you confirm the Liz Frank

1597
01:09:21,560 --> 01:09:26,760
Speaker 4: injury for Hunter Wohller, just super unfortunate news that you know,

1598
01:09:26,880 --> 01:09:29,720
Speaker 4: really two rookies not named Tyler Warren that have really

1599
01:09:29,760 --> 01:09:32,360
Speaker 4: shown a lot of promises year both season ending injuries.

1600
01:09:32,400 --> 01:09:34,400
Speaker 4: And I'd have to look at it. I don't believe

1601
01:09:34,520 --> 01:09:36,479
Speaker 4: Justin Wally had injury issues in Minnesota, and I don't

1602
01:09:36,479 --> 01:09:39,320
Speaker 4: think Hunter Woller had many at Wisconsin. I want to

1603
01:09:39,320 --> 01:09:41,040
Speaker 4: say he was their leading tackler each of the last

1604
01:09:41,040 --> 01:09:42,920
Speaker 4: two seasons, so obviously I had to play a ton

1605
01:09:43,400 --> 01:09:46,240
Speaker 4: for that. But he got He was with the starters

1606
01:09:46,240 --> 01:09:49,760
Speaker 4: on Saturday against the Packers withn't it cross out dude

1607
01:09:49,840 --> 01:09:52,639
Speaker 4: injury and Hunter Wooler suffered a foot injury, and Shane

1608
01:09:52,680 --> 01:09:54,200
Speaker 4: after the game actor like it wasn't going to be

1609
01:09:54,200 --> 01:09:56,160
Speaker 4: that big of a deal. It didn't think it was

1610
01:09:57,320 --> 01:10:00,160
Speaker 4: season ender. So that's a guy that certainly he was

1611
01:10:00,160 --> 01:10:01,679
Speaker 4: going to make your fifty three men roster. I don't

1612
01:10:01,680 --> 01:10:03,120
Speaker 4: want to act like Hunter Wolo was going to be when

1613
01:10:03,160 --> 01:10:06,120
Speaker 4: you're starting eleven, but you know, maybe some sub packages

1614
01:10:06,640 --> 01:10:09,400
Speaker 4: he could have been involved there. So yeah, your third

1615
01:10:09,479 --> 01:10:11,640
Speaker 4: round pick and your seventh round pick, two guys in

1616
01:10:11,680 --> 01:10:14,000
Speaker 4: the secondary, both done for the year.

1617
01:10:14,320 --> 01:10:15,680
Speaker 1: We'll keep an eye on that and let you know

1618
01:10:15,720 --> 01:10:17,680
Speaker 1: exactly what happens as soon as it happens. Right here

1619
01:10:17,680 --> 01:10:19,240
Speaker 1: at ninety three five one oh seven to five of

1620
01:10:19,280 --> 01:10:21,320
Speaker 1: the fan, I asked you, guys, if you watch any

1621
01:10:21,360 --> 01:10:25,360
Speaker 1: of the Bengals Commanders Monday night game last night? Largely

1622
01:10:25,400 --> 01:10:27,400
Speaker 1: I tuned in for a moment just because that's what

1623
01:10:27,640 --> 01:10:29,280
Speaker 1: was on. So I was checking it out and I

1624
01:10:29,320 --> 01:10:32,519
Speaker 1: saw Josh Johnson playing quarterback for the Commanders, and I

1625
01:10:32,560 --> 01:10:36,040
Speaker 1: thought Colt's legend. Yeah, well not just the Colts legend.

1626
01:10:36,160 --> 01:10:38,160
Speaker 1: So I went back and I was just that was bored.

1627
01:10:38,200 --> 01:10:40,760
Speaker 1: So sometimes you'll go, I wonder what Josh Johnson has

1628
01:10:40,800 --> 01:10:42,720
Speaker 1: been We don't remember him coming out of the gate

1629
01:10:42,760 --> 01:10:44,920
Speaker 1: with Tampa Bay early in his career. I think he

1630
01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:47,599
Speaker 1: spent three years with Tampa Bay. But listen to this.

1631
01:10:47,960 --> 01:10:52,719
Speaker 1: Since then, he's never had until very recently, a multi

1632
01:10:52,840 --> 01:10:55,320
Speaker 1: year stay with anybody else, But this is his resume.

1633
01:10:55,920 --> 01:10:59,320
Speaker 1: After the first three years in Tampa Bay, he spent

1634
01:10:59,400 --> 01:11:03,320
Speaker 1: a year with the forty nine Ers, then in part

1635
01:11:03,320 --> 01:11:05,840
Speaker 1: of that year with the Browns, then the next year

1636
01:11:05,840 --> 01:11:08,080
Speaker 1: with the Bengals. Back to the forty nine Ers in

1637
01:11:08,120 --> 01:11:11,280
Speaker 1: twenty fourteen, Back to the Bengals in twenty fifteen, the

1638
01:11:11,400 --> 01:11:14,920
Speaker 1: Jets in fifteen, the Colts Kevin in fifteen, the Bills

1639
01:11:14,920 --> 01:11:19,400
Speaker 1: in fifteen, the Ravens and Giants in sixteen, the Texans

1640
01:11:19,439 --> 01:11:23,120
Speaker 1: in twenty seventeen, the Raiders and Redskins back then they

1641
01:11:23,160 --> 01:11:28,519
Speaker 1: were the Redskins in eighteen, the Detroit Lions in twenty nineteen.

1642
01:11:29,360 --> 01:11:31,800
Speaker 1: In twenty twenty, was back with the forty nine ers

1643
01:11:31,800 --> 01:11:34,320
Speaker 1: for a cup of coffee, twenty one with the Jets,

1644
01:11:34,360 --> 01:11:37,120
Speaker 1: twenty one with the Ravens, twenty two with the Broncos.

1645
01:11:37,880 --> 01:11:40,280
Speaker 1: Back with the forty nine Ers again in twenty twenty two.

1646
01:11:40,520 --> 01:11:42,800
Speaker 1: He spent two seasons in twenty three and twenty four

1647
01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:46,040
Speaker 1: with the Ravens and now plays for the Washington Commanders

1648
01:11:46,040 --> 01:11:47,280
Speaker 1: at Shadon Daniels backup.

1649
01:11:48,080 --> 01:11:51,479
Speaker 4: That is a career. Kevin Powen, I remember correctly. I

1650
01:11:51,479 --> 01:11:54,120
Speaker 4: think he was signed here to be the backup when

1651
01:11:54,160 --> 01:11:59,160
Speaker 4: Andrew luck first had his shoulder issue, and that was

1652
01:11:59,240 --> 01:12:04,280
Speaker 4: the infamous Matt Hasselbeck postgame comments of it was coming

1653
01:12:04,320 --> 01:12:07,880
Speaker 4: out of my basement and attic to aptly describe how

1654
01:12:07,920 --> 01:12:10,080
Speaker 4: Matt Hausbeck was feeling going into a game where he

1655
01:12:10,160 --> 01:12:12,639
Speaker 4: started in won. I think it was a Thursday nighter

1656
01:12:12,640 --> 01:12:17,040
Speaker 4: in Houston, So yeah, that is Colt's legend. Josh Johnson here,

1657
01:12:17,320 --> 01:12:20,519
Speaker 4: this is quite the hypothetical here from Chris. Can I

1658
01:12:20,520 --> 01:12:24,200
Speaker 4: throw this at you guys, Well, let's hear it. Chris

1659
01:12:24,400 --> 01:12:27,320
Speaker 4: is so bullish on Shane Steiken. He wants to see

1660
01:12:27,360 --> 01:12:31,400
Speaker 4: Carly Urse Gordon extend stike In by two more seasons,

1661
01:12:32,760 --> 01:12:36,479
Speaker 4: tell him to play Anthony Richardson this year and then

1662
01:12:36,520 --> 01:12:40,880
Speaker 4: he will get another quarterback choice if it doesn't pan out.

1663
01:12:40,960 --> 01:12:45,360
Speaker 4: He believes that if Ballard were to be fired, other

1664
01:12:45,560 --> 01:12:48,200
Speaker 4: gms think that highly of Shane steike In to keep

1665
01:12:48,240 --> 01:12:49,760
Speaker 4: him well.

1666
01:12:49,840 --> 01:12:51,479
Speaker 1: One of the things he's supposed to be is good

1667
01:12:51,479 --> 01:12:55,000
Speaker 1: with quarterbacks, correct, So is he also not tied in

1668
01:12:55,080 --> 01:12:56,680
Speaker 1: with ar as much as Ballard is.

1669
01:12:58,920 --> 01:13:03,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm reading this back and you imagine that I

1670
01:13:04,000 --> 01:13:08,240
Speaker 2: really can't. No, I can't see this. If I swiped

1671
01:13:08,240 --> 01:13:10,360
Speaker 2: my eyes, I still can't see it. That would be

1672
01:13:11,080 --> 01:13:14,000
Speaker 2: certainly a development, But no, he does not deserve an

1673
01:13:14,040 --> 01:13:16,280
Speaker 2: extension at all. Coaches who don't make the playoffs in

1674
01:13:16,280 --> 01:13:20,800
Speaker 2: their first three years don't get extensions. And honestly, he's

1675
01:13:20,800 --> 01:13:22,559
Speaker 2: trying to make it in his third year, so should

1676
01:13:22,640 --> 01:13:25,320
Speaker 2: say the first two years he hasn't made it, And yeah, yeah,

1677
01:13:25,320 --> 01:13:28,680
Speaker 2: I got to see some success or something. And I

1678
01:13:28,680 --> 01:13:31,479
Speaker 2: don't think it's necessarily just x'es and O's what's so

1679
01:13:31,640 --> 01:13:34,519
Speaker 2: sticking either. You know, whenever there's been big decisions with

1680
01:13:34,560 --> 01:13:37,880
Speaker 2: his teams, there's been times where he has honestly put

1681
01:13:37,880 --> 01:13:40,240
Speaker 2: his foot in his mouth speaking about his team with

1682
01:13:40,280 --> 01:13:42,640
Speaker 2: authority or with any type of validity.

1683
01:13:42,760 --> 01:13:43,640
Speaker 4: So I would agree with that.

1684
01:13:44,160 --> 01:13:45,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's some growing up that he's had to do

1685
01:13:45,800 --> 01:13:46,120
Speaker 3: as well.

1686
01:13:46,120 --> 01:13:47,759
Speaker 4: I think, Yeah, I think there was a balance in coaches,

1687
01:13:47,800 --> 01:13:50,000
Speaker 4: and not to simplify it to like two areas, but like,

1688
01:13:50,600 --> 01:13:52,800
Speaker 4: are you good at the axes? And O's that's one area.

1689
01:13:53,000 --> 01:13:55,519
Speaker 4: And are you a leader of men? Yeah, and I

1690
01:13:55,560 --> 01:13:58,120
Speaker 4: think the whole leader. Like, it's a fine balance. I

1691
01:13:58,120 --> 01:13:59,600
Speaker 4: think to try and get sometimes you.

1692
01:13:59,560 --> 01:14:02,000
Speaker 1: Got to grow. Sometimes you're really good at one and

1693
01:14:02,080 --> 01:14:03,320
Speaker 1: you got to grow into the other one.

1694
01:14:03,360 --> 01:14:05,400
Speaker 4: Correct, And I would say the latter one I have

1695
01:14:05,520 --> 01:14:08,320
Speaker 4: some questions about. But yes, Jeff, to your point, I

1696
01:14:08,320 --> 01:14:10,000
Speaker 4: think it's a good point. Yes, I think he is.

1697
01:14:11,000 --> 01:14:14,559
Speaker 4: He Yeah, he's at fault for Anthony Richardson too. I mean,

1698
01:14:14,600 --> 01:14:17,600
Speaker 4: like it's a misevaluation for everybody in that organization. And

1699
01:14:17,640 --> 01:14:20,200
Speaker 4: again we debated this in the summer. Did they misevaluate

1700
01:14:20,240 --> 01:14:20,960
Speaker 4: him more off the field?

1701
01:14:20,960 --> 01:14:24,839
Speaker 1: They're on the field in terms of preparation and dedication

1702
01:14:24,920 --> 01:14:26,479
Speaker 1: to the game and love for the game and all

1703
01:14:26,560 --> 01:14:27,240
Speaker 1: that kind of stuff.

1704
01:14:27,280 --> 01:14:29,040
Speaker 4: All of it. So, and that's where again I brought

1705
01:14:29,120 --> 01:14:29,639
Speaker 4: you had to.

1706
01:14:29,600 --> 01:14:32,080
Speaker 2: Bench him because he didn't prepare the right way in

1707
01:14:32,160 --> 01:14:35,880
Speaker 2: your two after you named him a team captain, after

1708
01:14:35,920 --> 01:14:37,800
Speaker 2: he was voted a team captain by his peers. Now,

1709
01:14:39,360 --> 01:14:41,160
Speaker 2: that is an indictment on whatever you got going on.

1710
01:14:41,240 --> 01:14:44,480
Speaker 4: And that's where Carolina and Tennessee I brought those up earlier. Again, Carolina,

1711
01:14:44,600 --> 01:14:47,679
Speaker 4: the coaching staff is no longer there with that drafted

1712
01:14:47,680 --> 01:14:50,840
Speaker 4: Bryce Young Tennessee. The coaching staff that drafted Will Levis

1713
01:14:50,920 --> 01:14:53,960
Speaker 4: is no longer there. So I think those are some

1714
01:14:54,040 --> 01:14:55,560
Speaker 4: factors that you also.

1715
01:14:55,760 --> 01:14:58,120
Speaker 1: And interesting too that at the you know, the last

1716
01:14:58,200 --> 01:15:00,960
Speaker 1: seven games of the season last year in Caroline, Dave

1717
01:15:01,040 --> 01:15:03,479
Speaker 1: Canalis got the best out of Price Young and they

1718
01:15:03,479 --> 01:15:06,160
Speaker 1: started playing competitive football and had a real chance until

1719
01:15:06,200 --> 01:15:09,200
Speaker 1: the very end of two games against Philadelphia and Kansas City,

1720
01:15:09,240 --> 01:15:11,759
Speaker 1: the two Super Bowl teams. They had both those teams

1721
01:15:11,760 --> 01:15:14,120
Speaker 1: dead to rights and lost in the last thirty seconds

1722
01:15:14,160 --> 01:15:17,320
Speaker 1: sixty seconds. So there's still time for guys to develop

1723
01:15:17,320 --> 01:15:20,200
Speaker 1: in the right situation, was my point. And maybe maybe

1724
01:15:20,439 --> 01:15:21,080
Speaker 1: Ar is that guy.

1725
01:15:21,120 --> 01:15:24,479
Speaker 4: I don't wantch money Josh Johnson made I.

1726
01:15:24,400 --> 01:15:26,560
Speaker 1: Bet for a career backup like that. It's got to

1727
01:15:26,600 --> 01:15:28,280
Speaker 1: be like four or five million a year. You got

1728
01:15:28,280 --> 01:15:30,800
Speaker 1: the life. I'm telling you, we have to look up

1729
01:15:30,800 --> 01:15:31,400
Speaker 1: his career earner.

1730
01:15:31,400 --> 01:15:33,160
Speaker 4: If that the lifeerors live golf the life.

1731
01:15:35,280 --> 01:15:37,000
Speaker 1: Let me ask you a question if you if if

1732
01:15:37,800 --> 01:15:39,760
Speaker 1: you were going to have to play professional golf, but

1733
01:15:39,880 --> 01:15:44,679
Speaker 1: you found yourself playing on the live, you found yourself

1734
01:15:44,720 --> 01:15:47,519
Speaker 1: in a position where you had to choose maybe play

1735
01:15:47,600 --> 01:15:49,120
Speaker 1: live or maybe not play so much.

1736
01:15:49,280 --> 01:15:51,479
Speaker 4: I choose that porter potty at forty six in Illinois?

1737
01:15:51,560 --> 01:15:54,360
Speaker 5: Is that what it would Josh Johnson's total career earnings

1738
01:15:54,439 --> 01:15:56,280
Speaker 5: twelve a little over twelve million.

1739
01:15:57,600 --> 01:16:00,080
Speaker 1: Career earnings. It's just twelve million. Wow?

1740
01:16:00,720 --> 01:16:03,360
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, he was joining teams and he wasn't the backup.

1741
01:16:03,400 --> 01:16:06,040
Speaker 2: He was just on the roster, back to quarterback making

1742
01:16:06,080 --> 01:16:08,040
Speaker 2: more money than that's true. But yeah, he was a

1743
01:16:08,080 --> 01:16:11,200
Speaker 2: guy who was, you know, more practice squad and sort

1744
01:16:11,280 --> 01:16:11,760
Speaker 2: of that role.

1745
01:16:11,800 --> 01:16:13,920
Speaker 1: I would think he would the guy if he could

1746
01:16:14,120 --> 01:16:16,320
Speaker 1: land a season long gig. It would be about three

1747
01:16:16,360 --> 01:16:18,120
Speaker 1: million a year, wouldn't it at this point in time?

1748
01:16:18,160 --> 01:16:18,680
Speaker 1: But maybe not.

1749
01:16:19,200 --> 01:16:21,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you just read through his resume and he

1750
01:16:21,240 --> 01:16:23,040
Speaker 2: wasn't staying with one team for a full year.

1751
01:16:23,720 --> 01:16:23,840
Speaker 10: Uh.

1752
01:16:24,120 --> 01:16:28,920
Speaker 1: Jason H. Richardson Jones, I feel like a kindergarten kid

1753
01:16:29,280 --> 01:16:33,280
Speaker 1: being asked by my parents to choose between broccoli or cauliflower.

1754
01:16:32,760 --> 01:16:33,639
Speaker 10: At the turd Burger.

1755
01:16:33,800 --> 01:16:37,559
Speaker 4: Right, Yes, it is really good. That was a really

1756
01:16:37,600 --> 01:16:40,920
Speaker 4: good comment there by Will haskin earlier turd Burger to

1757

Speaker 4: describe the Colts quarterback situation. All right, wait, someone referenced, yeah,

1758
01:16:44,400 --> 01:16:45,760
Speaker 4: reach into the porter potty for it.

1759
01:16:45,760 --> 01:16:47,559
Speaker 1: We'll see how it all plays out a little bit later.

1760
01:16:47,640 --> 01:16:49,719
Speaker 4: Jane, I can reach into the porter potty today.

1761
01:16:49,840 --> 01:16:53,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll talk a little bit more about summertime sports

1762
01:16:53,160 --> 01:16:55,760
Speaker 1: and the cults and their situations as we continue Nextit

1763
01:16:55,880 --> 01:16:57,280
Speaker 1: ninety three to five and one A seven five The

1764
01:16:57,320 --> 01:17:01,400
Speaker 1: Fit through Tuesday. Good morning, hopefully on our way to

1765
01:17:01,760 --> 01:17:04,600
Speaker 1: having a starting quarterback name for the Indianapolis Colts a

1766
01:17:04,640 --> 01:17:07,800
Speaker 1: little bit later on today. And maybe we're all just hopeful, James.

1767
01:17:07,800 --> 01:17:09,680
Speaker 1: Maybe we're just all hoping against hope we get an

1768
01:17:09,720 --> 01:17:12,200
Speaker 1: answer today. We'll have to wait and find out, and

1769
01:17:12,200 --> 01:17:13,680
Speaker 1: we'll talk more about that in a minute. In fact,

1770
01:17:13,680 --> 01:17:15,479
Speaker 1: we can talk about it right now with our next guest.

1771
01:17:15,880 --> 01:17:18,559
Speaker 1: Zach Keifer writes for The Athletic. He has covered the

1772
01:17:18,560 --> 01:17:20,360
Speaker 1: Colts for a long time, but now covers the entire

1773
01:17:20,439 --> 01:17:23,280
Speaker 1: National Football League and also just a terrific writer that

1774
01:17:23,320 --> 01:17:26,560
Speaker 1: does some great in depth pieces. Uh and they're always

1775
01:17:26,720 --> 01:17:29,320
Speaker 1: incredibly interesting to read. And he joins us now on

1776
01:17:29,320 --> 01:17:32,479
Speaker 1: the payloss Liquors hotline. How's that for an intro, Zach Kiefer.

1777
01:17:33,240 --> 01:17:34,560
Speaker 11: I don't think I can live up to that, but

1778
01:17:35,040 --> 01:17:35,840
Speaker 11: thank you for the kind.

1779
01:17:36,720 --> 01:17:39,120
Speaker 3: He ain't know that now you know he's okay.

1780
01:17:39,400 --> 01:17:41,919
Speaker 6: James, I knew James eventually.

1781
01:17:42,160 --> 01:17:44,080
Speaker 2: Oh wait a second, I gotta see this guy at

1782
01:17:44,120 --> 01:17:45,800
Speaker 2: some point this year, and I gotta, you know, you know,

1783
01:17:45,800 --> 01:17:48,000
Speaker 2: give him a little grief. But it is good to

1784
01:17:48,040 --> 01:17:50,920
Speaker 2: hear from you. I do want to start here, Kevin. Obviously,

1785
01:17:51,040 --> 01:17:53,479
Speaker 2: the Andrew love piece we we've found out. I think

1786
01:17:53,479 --> 01:17:55,240
Speaker 2: I found it pretty fascinating. I knew kind of behind

1787
01:17:55,240 --> 01:17:57,120
Speaker 2: the scenes you had told me for a while you

1788
01:17:57,160 --> 01:17:58,720
Speaker 2: were working on it, you know, made it out there

1789
01:17:58,720 --> 01:18:02,080
Speaker 2: to California to talk to Andrew Luck. And I know

1790
01:18:02,160 --> 01:18:04,960
Speaker 2: this isn't the biggest takeaway from the story, but one

1791
01:18:04,960 --> 01:18:07,720
Speaker 2: of the funniest takeaways it had me thinking, you know,

1792
01:18:08,240 --> 01:18:12,240
Speaker 2: was the Jacoby Brissett reference. He needed to apply for

1793
01:18:12,320 --> 01:18:15,160
Speaker 2: the job over at Stanford, and he put down Jacoby

1794
01:18:15,200 --> 01:18:16,760
Speaker 2: Brissett as one of his references.

1795
01:18:16,800 --> 01:18:18,920
Speaker 3: And what was your reaction to that?

1796
01:18:19,080 --> 01:18:21,920
Speaker 2: And perhaps, you know, in all seriousness, that bomb that

1797
01:18:21,920 --> 01:18:24,800
Speaker 2: he still had with so many guys that he's left

1798
01:18:24,800 --> 01:18:25,799
Speaker 2: in a way, if that makes.

1799
01:18:25,680 --> 01:18:29,840
Speaker 11: Sense, Yeah, I think it kind of steaks to a

1800
01:18:29,880 --> 01:18:32,040
Speaker 11: bigger thing. Right, So this guy was kind of in

1801
01:18:32,080 --> 01:18:34,120
Speaker 11: a fog for a couple of years. Andrew Luck was

1802
01:18:34,160 --> 01:18:36,679
Speaker 11: he didn't know what was next in his life. And look,

1803
01:18:36,720 --> 01:18:38,640
Speaker 11: these are first real problems, right. You have all the

1804
01:18:38,640 --> 01:18:40,040
Speaker 11: money in the world and you don't know what to

1805
01:18:40,080 --> 01:18:42,400
Speaker 11: do with the rest of your life. So I don't

1806
01:18:42,439 --> 01:18:44,040
Speaker 11: really want to throw a pity party for him, but

1807
01:18:44,680 --> 01:18:47,920
Speaker 11: I think the little moments like you referenced James, like

1808
01:18:48,120 --> 01:18:50,760
Speaker 11: those things helped him remind him how much football was

1809
01:18:50,800 --> 01:18:53,200
Speaker 11: a part of him. Like he's applying for the first

1810
01:18:53,240 --> 01:18:55,320
Speaker 11: real job of his life, now, that's what he said.

1811
01:18:55,520 --> 01:18:57,360
Speaker 11: And I was like, hey, you were an NFL quarterback

1812
01:18:57,360 --> 01:19:00,200
Speaker 11: for seven years. That's a real job. But he's like, no, like,

1813
01:19:00,240 --> 01:19:03,920
Speaker 11: my first real world job was this Stanford general mayor

1814
01:19:04,400 --> 01:19:06,800
Speaker 11: manager position. And he said, you know, like when he

1815
01:19:06,800 --> 01:19:09,280
Speaker 11: had to list three references, the first three names that

1816
01:19:09,360 --> 01:19:12,679
Speaker 11: came to mind, Chris Ballard, Frank Reich, and of course

1817
01:19:12,720 --> 01:19:15,320
Speaker 11: his good friend and former back up Jacobe Brissett.

1818
01:19:16,240 --> 01:19:21,240
Speaker 4: Zach great work man, no surprise whatsoever, but outstanding job

1819
01:19:21,439 --> 01:19:25,320
Speaker 4: on the Andrew Luck piece. You've obviously had several long

1820
01:19:25,400 --> 01:19:30,519
Speaker 4: conversations with them prior with this one. Which one made

1821
01:19:30,560 --> 01:19:33,120
Speaker 4: you say, holy bleep? Which one made you say, wow,

1822
01:19:33,720 --> 01:19:34,960
Speaker 4: I didn't expect that from you.

1823
01:19:36,520 --> 01:19:39,160
Speaker 11: Well, it's the first quote in the story, and I

1824
01:19:39,160 --> 01:19:41,920
Speaker 11: cannot repeat my reaction on the air right now, but

1825
01:19:43,160 --> 01:19:45,960
Speaker 11: I had asked him this question years ago, like two

1826
01:19:46,080 --> 01:19:47,439
Speaker 11: or three years ago, and he said I was going

1827
01:19:47,520 --> 01:19:49,160
Speaker 11: to play until I was forty and I kind of

1828
01:19:49,160 --> 01:19:51,200
Speaker 11: like brushed it off. We were off the record, I

1829
01:19:51,200 --> 01:19:53,680
Speaker 11: couldn't report it. And then I went back to it

1830
01:19:53,760 --> 01:19:55,120
Speaker 11: this time and I asked him and he said I

1831
01:19:55,120 --> 01:19:57,559
Speaker 11: was going to play till forty or forty five, and

1832
01:19:57,600 --> 01:20:00,640
Speaker 11: then he explained it to me, and my reaction was,

1833
01:20:01,680 --> 01:20:04,720
Speaker 11: what in the world, Like, do you know who you are?

1834
01:20:04,800 --> 01:20:07,960
Speaker 11: Like you're saying this like you're gonna break Indianapolis's heart

1835
01:20:08,479 --> 01:20:12,280
Speaker 11: all over again. But and you know this kav from

1836
01:20:12,280 --> 01:20:16,000
Speaker 11: covering him like he was. He was like everything he

1837
01:20:16,080 --> 01:20:19,720
Speaker 11: had to get to Sunday like he would the injuries, everything,

1838
01:20:19,760 --> 01:20:22,400
Speaker 11: Like there was a loyalty, there was a discipline, There

1839
01:20:22,439 --> 01:20:25,519
Speaker 11: was an obligation that he felt for the city, for

1840
01:20:25,560 --> 01:20:27,840
Speaker 11: the team, for the franchise, as the quarterback, to get

1841
01:20:27,840 --> 01:20:30,960
Speaker 11: to the field on Sunday. And I think when it

1842
01:20:31,000 --> 01:20:34,400
Speaker 11: was over, I think he was lost for a little while.

1843
01:20:34,439 --> 01:20:36,320
Speaker 6: I think he was in a fog. That's what I wrote.

1844
01:20:36,479 --> 01:20:39,040
Speaker 11: And I felt that when I had those conversations with

1845
01:20:39,120 --> 01:20:41,800
Speaker 11: him a couple of years ago, and the coolest thing

1846
01:20:41,840 --> 01:20:45,960
Speaker 11: for me was that that's over. He is he sounds happy,

1847
01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:50,080
Speaker 11: he looks happy, he's reinvigorated, he's comfortable with everything. Like

1848
01:20:50,120 --> 01:20:52,080
Speaker 11: I felt like he hit out for a while, and

1849
01:20:52,120 --> 01:20:56,120
Speaker 11: he disputes that. I disagree, but like he was nowhere

1850
01:20:56,120 --> 01:20:59,360
Speaker 11: to be found for two or three years, and now

1851
01:20:59,400 --> 01:21:01,799
Speaker 11: he's out there and he's doing everything, and the people

1852
01:21:01,920 --> 01:21:04,880
Speaker 11: closest to him are surprised by how much he's embracing

1853
01:21:05,400 --> 01:21:08,800
Speaker 11: quote unquote the spotlight. So I mean, I heard this

1854
01:21:08,920 --> 01:21:10,559
Speaker 11: in his voice, and I haven't heard that in his

1855
01:21:10,640 --> 01:21:12,880
Speaker 11: voice since twenty eighteen when they were rolling win in

1856
01:21:13,000 --> 01:21:14,200
Speaker 11: nine of ten games going to.

1857
01:21:14,160 --> 01:21:15,320
Speaker 6: The playoffs with Frank Reich.

1858
01:21:15,439 --> 01:21:19,160
Speaker 11: Like I heard that Andrew Luck happiness again, And for

1859
01:21:19,240 --> 01:21:19,720
Speaker 11: me as a.

1860
01:21:19,680 --> 01:21:21,719
Speaker 6: Reporter, that was just really cool.

1861
01:21:21,760 --> 01:21:24,520
Speaker 11: It was really cool because I feel like I've chronicled

1862
01:21:24,600 --> 01:21:27,880
Speaker 11: half of his life at this point, Zach.

1863
01:21:28,200 --> 01:21:30,720
Speaker 4: I did think that quote that stood out to me,

1864
01:21:30,800 --> 01:21:34,240
Speaker 4: and I was hoping you could expand on it was

1865
01:21:34,720 --> 01:21:37,480
Speaker 4: him explaining the guilt. You know, I've always had guilt

1866
01:21:37,760 --> 01:21:41,719
Speaker 4: about how it ended. You know, I let my teammates down,

1867
01:21:42,080 --> 01:21:44,760
Speaker 4: do you think that guilt is rooted in any way,

1868
01:21:44,760 --> 01:21:47,599
Speaker 4: shape or form, and the timing of it, Like I mean,

1869
01:21:47,640 --> 01:21:49,960
Speaker 4: here we are about ready to approach whatever the six

1870
01:21:50,000 --> 01:21:53,479
Speaker 4: year anniversary of it. Is there any guilt in it

1871
01:21:53,560 --> 01:21:56,920
Speaker 4: happened in late August versus Hey, it wouldn't have been

1872
01:21:56,960 --> 01:21:59,200
Speaker 4: maybe as guilty of it if I did it in

1873
01:21:59,200 --> 01:21:59,960
Speaker 4: February March.

1874
01:22:01,560 --> 01:22:05,280
Speaker 11: Yeah, one hundred percent. I do think that weighs on him.

1875
01:22:05,520 --> 01:22:08,680
Speaker 11: It's interesting because there's there's this dichotomy with him and

1876
01:22:08,720 --> 01:22:10,599
Speaker 11: how it ended, and this is not something he thinks

1877
01:22:10,600 --> 01:22:15,360
Speaker 11: about daily or anything anymore. But he doesn't regret his decision.

1878
01:22:15,439 --> 01:22:17,360
Speaker 11: It was the right decision. And he told me this,

1879
01:22:17,560 --> 01:22:19,840
Speaker 11: He said, when I made the decision, I made it.

1880
01:22:19,960 --> 01:22:21,920
Speaker 11: And he's never looked back and thought he should have

1881
01:22:21,920 --> 01:22:24,200
Speaker 11: made a different decision. And you know Andrew well enough

1882
01:22:24,200 --> 01:22:26,920
Speaker 11: to know, like we can believe that, Like I know,

1883
01:22:26,960 --> 01:22:28,720
Speaker 11: when an athlete's lying to me, I really think he's

1884
01:22:28,720 --> 01:22:32,280
Speaker 11: telling me the truth. All that being said, I think

1885
01:22:32,320 --> 01:22:34,280
Speaker 11: he hates the timing of it. I think he hates

1886
01:22:34,320 --> 01:22:37,599
Speaker 11: that it was fifteen days before the season opener, and

1887
01:22:37,640 --> 01:22:39,040
Speaker 11: he hates that he had to walk out in the

1888
01:22:39,080 --> 01:22:41,440
Speaker 11: locker room. You know, when he came back to Stanford

1889
01:22:41,520 --> 01:22:43,280
Speaker 11: before his senior year and he would have gone number

1890
01:22:43,280 --> 01:22:44,400
Speaker 11: one on the draft and all that.

1891
01:22:45,120 --> 01:22:46,560
Speaker 6: All he told his coach.

1892
01:22:46,360 --> 01:22:49,360
Speaker 11: David Shaw, was I gotta finish with my guys like

1893
01:22:49,400 --> 01:22:52,480
Speaker 11: that was always what drove this guy was the locker room.

1894
01:22:52,800 --> 01:22:55,800
Speaker 11: And he quit on the locker room. And he's used

1895
01:22:55,840 --> 01:22:59,719
Speaker 11: that word. He's used the word quit. It's a cold word.

1896
01:22:59,760 --> 01:23:02,080
Speaker 11: But the reality he walked out on this team fifteen

1897
01:23:02,160 --> 01:23:04,680
Speaker 11: days before the season opener in which they could have

1898
01:23:04,720 --> 01:23:07,320
Speaker 11: made a Super Bowl run that year. So I think

1899
01:23:07,320 --> 01:23:09,599
Speaker 11: he wrestled with that for a long time. Just because

1900
01:23:09,640 --> 01:23:12,040
Speaker 11: it was the right decision doesn't mean he made it

1901
01:23:12,040 --> 01:23:14,080
Speaker 11: at the right time. And I think he wrestled with

1902
01:23:14,160 --> 01:23:16,120
Speaker 11: that and that was a really really hard thing to

1903
01:23:16,120 --> 01:23:19,840
Speaker 11: get over. And I'm not sure he's entirely over it now, Zach.

1904
01:23:19,880 --> 01:23:22,960
Speaker 3: Has he ever really explained that part of it, just

1905
01:23:23,040 --> 01:23:25,599
Speaker 3: the why the timing was what it was.

1906
01:23:28,280 --> 01:23:31,760
Speaker 11: I think he didn't see a way forward, and it

1907
01:23:31,800 --> 01:23:34,639
Speaker 11: goes back to this promise he made himself. I mean,

1908
01:23:34,680 --> 01:23:37,559
Speaker 11: twenty seventeen was a really really dark year for him,

1909
01:23:37,720 --> 01:23:40,439
Speaker 11: really dark things were not good with his student to

1910
01:23:40,479 --> 01:23:44,160
Speaker 11: be wife, He hated football, He was a miserable person

1911
01:23:44,200 --> 01:23:44,799
Speaker 11: to be around.

1912
01:23:44,800 --> 01:23:45,800
Speaker 6: These are his words, and.

1913
01:23:45,720 --> 01:23:49,040
Speaker 11: He told himself, if I'm ever going down this path again,

1914
01:23:49,240 --> 01:23:51,360
Speaker 11: I'm done. I don't want to do this to my life.

1915
01:23:52,360 --> 01:23:55,000
Speaker 11: That's what hit him in August of twenty nineteen, and

1916
01:23:55,040 --> 01:24:00,439
Speaker 11: I think he was starting to really realize that there's

1917
01:24:00,520 --> 01:24:02,400
Speaker 11: not going to be a way out. If he gets

1918
01:24:02,439 --> 01:24:04,679
Speaker 11: this thing fixed, then something else is going to happen.

1919
01:24:05,800 --> 01:24:08,599
Speaker 11: But it's just surreal to think about, like think about

1920
01:24:08,600 --> 01:24:12,360
Speaker 11: a starting quarterback anywhere in the league right now retiring

1921
01:24:12,600 --> 01:24:15,479
Speaker 11: like right now, with the season so close. It's just

1922
01:24:16,160 --> 01:24:18,720
Speaker 11: it just defies the leaf, even now having lived it,

1923
01:24:18,800 --> 01:24:22,200
Speaker 11: having covered it. But I just think he made that

1924
01:24:22,240 --> 01:24:25,559
Speaker 11: promise to himself, and he's a man of conviction, and

1925
01:24:25,600 --> 01:24:27,080
Speaker 11: it had to be the hardest thing he's ever done

1926
01:24:27,080 --> 01:24:28,320
Speaker 11: in his life, and he said it was.

1927
01:24:29,200 --> 01:24:31,920
Speaker 6: But he kept that promise to himself.

1928
01:24:31,560 --> 01:24:33,920
Speaker 11: And not meant walking away if it got bad again,

1929
01:24:33,960 --> 01:24:36,840
Speaker 11: and it did, and boy, the timing was really bad

1930
01:24:36,880 --> 01:24:38,040
Speaker 11: for everybody involved.

1931
01:24:38,840 --> 01:24:41,840
Speaker 1: Zach. Obviously, the physical discomfort that he was in played

1932
01:24:41,880 --> 01:24:45,240
Speaker 1: a huge overwhelming part in all of that. Do you

1933
01:24:45,240 --> 01:24:48,559
Speaker 1: get the sense that he is still dealing with pain

1934
01:24:48,600 --> 01:24:51,240
Speaker 1: issues today, or is his body grown away from that.

1935
01:24:53,240 --> 01:24:54,080
Speaker 6: No, he's good.

1936
01:24:55,240 --> 01:24:57,759
Speaker 11: I asked him about that, and he likes to go surfing,

1937
01:24:58,000 --> 01:25:01,880
Speaker 11: and like Andrew luck is like he's got these little

1938
01:25:01,920 --> 01:25:06,160
Speaker 11: wiry glasses and like, I'm like, dude, what happened? Like

1939
01:25:06,240 --> 01:25:08,200
Speaker 11: do you even list anymore? And he's like, no, man,

1940
01:25:08,240 --> 01:25:09,960
Speaker 11: He's like, I'm lucky if I get a twenty minute

1941
01:25:10,000 --> 01:25:11,840
Speaker 11: surf in every day. And I'm like, oh, that's that's

1942
01:25:11,880 --> 01:25:14,799
Speaker 11: not an issue we have in Indianapolis, like to sneak

1943
01:25:14,840 --> 01:25:19,599
Speaker 11: in a quick surf. But it's it's he's so busy.

1944
01:25:19,800 --> 01:25:22,599
Speaker 11: You know, he's got two young kids and he works

1945
01:25:22,800 --> 01:25:25,360
Speaker 11: long hours. Like the other thing that hit me and

1946
01:25:25,560 --> 01:25:28,519
Speaker 11: the GM position for college football teams is different for

1947
01:25:28,600 --> 01:25:31,680
Speaker 11: every team. This guy is not a celebrity GM in

1948
01:25:31,760 --> 01:25:34,200
Speaker 11: any way, like he is all he needs to be because.

1949
01:25:34,479 --> 01:25:38,360
Speaker 6: He is he is. He's not the big, strapping goliath

1950
01:25:38,400 --> 01:25:39,120
Speaker 6: that he used to be.

1951
01:25:40,080 --> 01:25:41,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, I thought it was interesting. In Zach's piece, you

1952
01:25:41,920 --> 01:25:47,680
Speaker 4: mentioned Andrew visited Brad Stevens called Sam Presti and you know,

1953
01:25:47,720 --> 01:25:49,720
Speaker 4: trying to learn a little bit more about what it's

1954
01:25:49,760 --> 01:25:52,679
Speaker 4: like being a GM. Granted, the college GM probably holds

1955
01:25:52,720 --> 01:25:55,160
Speaker 4: a little bit more of a you know, raising money,

1956
01:25:55,240 --> 01:25:58,320
Speaker 4: sort of being a presence within the university than a

1957
01:25:58,400 --> 01:26:03,200
Speaker 4: professional GM. I guess a question that I have that

1958
01:26:03,320 --> 01:26:05,320
Speaker 4: you know, I don't know people occasionally asked me, but

1959
01:26:05,360 --> 01:26:07,720
Speaker 4: maybe it's more of just like the random sports fan

1960
01:26:07,800 --> 01:26:10,639
Speaker 4: that doesn't pay attention to the NFL, of like why

1961
01:26:10,680 --> 01:26:13,840
Speaker 4: did Andrew Luck retire? Like if you were on an

1962
01:26:13,880 --> 01:26:17,600
Speaker 4: elevator ride and someone asked you that, I feel like

1963
01:26:17,680 --> 01:26:20,759
Speaker 4: my answer would be something to the degree of the injury.

1964
01:26:20,760 --> 01:26:25,360
Speaker 4: Pain in the rehab started to impact the other relationships

1965
01:26:25,600 --> 01:26:27,640
Speaker 4: in his life, and he felt like that was too

1966
01:26:27,720 --> 01:26:30,720
Speaker 4: much to overcome. Is that the right elevator pitch? Am

1967
01:26:30,720 --> 01:26:33,519
Speaker 4: I missing anything? If you had to answer that question

1968
01:26:33,600 --> 01:26:36,000
Speaker 4: in a very sync manner.

1969
01:26:37,360 --> 01:26:38,360
Speaker 6: You know, it's funny KB.

1970
01:26:38,400 --> 01:26:40,400
Speaker 11: I could answer it in the most extinct manner you

1971
01:26:40,439 --> 01:26:43,360
Speaker 11: can imagine, because I asked Andrew that question and it

1972
01:26:43,400 --> 01:26:46,000
Speaker 11: was well into our conversation and he answered it with

1973
01:26:46,120 --> 01:26:50,479
Speaker 11: five words, and it just kind of hit me how

1974
01:26:50,520 --> 01:26:54,800
Speaker 11: easy it was in his mind at that time. I

1975
01:26:54,840 --> 01:26:59,000
Speaker 11: fell out of love, That's what he said, end of sentence.

1976
01:26:59,040 --> 01:27:02,000
Speaker 11: He said, I fell out of love. And for him

1977
01:27:02,280 --> 01:27:05,240
Speaker 11: it was that simple. It was like, I didn't enjoy

1978
01:27:05,360 --> 01:27:08,360
Speaker 11: doing this anymore. This was pain, This was miserable. He

1979
01:27:08,439 --> 01:27:11,360
Speaker 11: was a miserable person. And he's like, I had to

1980
01:27:11,360 --> 01:27:14,680
Speaker 11: remove football from my life. And I get asked that

1981
01:27:14,760 --> 01:27:18,240
Speaker 11: question all the time, even after the podcast came out,

1982
01:27:18,439 --> 01:27:20,639
Speaker 11: and I'm like, if you want to know why he quit,

1983
01:27:21,040 --> 01:27:23,559
Speaker 11: you need to watch the retirement press conference. He spills

1984
01:27:23,640 --> 01:27:27,320
Speaker 11: his entire soul on that stage. He does, I mean,

1985
01:27:27,479 --> 01:27:29,920
Speaker 11: it's all right there, It's all right there in front

1986
01:27:29,920 --> 01:27:31,840
Speaker 11: of you. And I getting a lot of credit for

1987
01:27:31,920 --> 01:27:33,640
Speaker 11: doing that, because remember the press conference was going to

1988
01:27:33,680 --> 01:27:35,880
Speaker 11: be a day later, and his family was going to

1989
01:27:35,920 --> 01:27:37,240
Speaker 11: be there and it was going to be much more

1990
01:27:37,360 --> 01:27:40,640
Speaker 11: organized and professional, and instead he's up there with his

1991
01:27:40,680 --> 01:27:44,120
Speaker 11: ankle taped in a Colt T shirt, fighting through tears

1992
01:27:44,200 --> 01:27:47,320
Speaker 11: after he was booed off his home field fifteen minutes earlier.

1993
01:27:47,840 --> 01:27:51,559
Speaker 11: That could not have been an easy situation. But you know,

1994
01:27:51,720 --> 01:27:54,599
Speaker 11: this big question that we've all had, that the NFL's

1995
01:27:54,600 --> 01:27:57,960
Speaker 11: had for years, Andrew Luck answered it in five words.

1996
01:27:58,080 --> 01:27:59,120
Speaker 6: I fell out of love.

1997
01:27:59,840 --> 01:28:01,760
Speaker 11: And I said it was that simple, and he's like, well, no,

1998
01:28:01,960 --> 01:28:05,639
Speaker 11: it was never that simple. But for him, in his mind,

1999
01:28:05,840 --> 01:28:08,759
Speaker 11: he didn't enjoy football at that point. And the strange

2000
01:28:08,800 --> 01:28:10,360
Speaker 11: thing for me was I never thought.

2001
01:28:10,160 --> 01:28:12,000
Speaker 6: He would be back in football at all. Me and

2002
01:28:12,040 --> 01:28:13,200
Speaker 6: Holder talked about.

2003
01:28:12,920 --> 01:28:16,519
Speaker 11: This forever, my colleague Stephen Holder, and we never thought

2004
01:28:16,520 --> 01:28:18,920
Speaker 11: we'd see him back in football. And that's what I

2005
01:28:18,960 --> 01:28:21,240
Speaker 11: had to answer with this story. Why is he back

2006
01:28:21,280 --> 01:28:25,480
Speaker 11: at Stanford fighting another uphill battle back in football?

2007
01:28:26,080 --> 01:28:27,760
Speaker 6: And the interesting thing is.

2008
01:28:28,120 --> 01:28:30,200
Speaker 11: He was mad at football for a while. He couldn't

2009
01:28:30,240 --> 01:28:33,759
Speaker 11: watch games, He'd have dreams about it. He'd walk around

2010
01:28:33,760 --> 01:28:35,880
Speaker 11: the house and say, I cannot be thirty years old

2011
01:28:35,920 --> 01:28:36,519
Speaker 11: and retired.

2012
01:28:36,600 --> 01:28:37,520
Speaker 6: This is ridiculous.

2013
01:28:38,439 --> 01:28:41,200
Speaker 11: And then slowly but surely, the game that had beaten

2014
01:28:41,280 --> 01:28:43,639
Speaker 11: the crap out of him the game to pull him

2015
01:28:43,680 --> 01:28:46,200
Speaker 11: back in and he started to fall in love just

2016
01:28:46,240 --> 01:28:48,400
Speaker 11: like he had as a teenager. Now he's not playing it.

2017
01:28:49,000 --> 01:28:52,320
Speaker 11: But it's just interesting. The guy that could do anything

2018
01:28:52,320 --> 01:28:54,840
Speaker 11: in the world. I thought he would go spend time

2019
01:28:54,880 --> 01:28:58,080
Speaker 11: in Europe and design buildings and all that stuff, was

2020
01:28:58,160 --> 01:29:01,600
Speaker 11: volunteering to coach high school footb in Palo Alto and

2021
01:29:01,760 --> 01:29:04,160
Speaker 11: is now facing one of the toughest jobs in college football.

2022
01:29:04,560 --> 01:29:06,040
Speaker 6: That I did not see Tommy.

2023
01:29:06,880 --> 01:29:09,320
Speaker 2: Last one from me, Zach. When I look at this

2024
01:29:09,400 --> 01:29:12,360
Speaker 2: picture of Andrew Luck, which is the lead photo, for

2025
01:29:12,400 --> 01:29:14,160
Speaker 2: your story. He's got the gray hairs come out of

2026
01:29:14,160 --> 01:29:15,800
Speaker 2: his beard, and you would think to the guys like

2027
01:29:15,840 --> 01:29:18,719
Speaker 2: forty and I believe he's what thirty five, thirty six

2028
01:29:18,960 --> 01:29:23,120
Speaker 2: and so it's in here. But how have you seen

2029
01:29:23,360 --> 01:29:27,080
Speaker 2: him sort of reinvent himself in this new chapter because

2030
01:29:27,080 --> 01:29:29,160
Speaker 2: as you said, he mentioned falling out of love with

2031
01:29:29,240 --> 01:29:31,320
Speaker 2: the game, and it's not the same type of love

2032
01:29:31,320 --> 01:29:33,080
Speaker 2: because you're not playing. But how have you seen him

2033
01:29:33,080 --> 01:29:37,840
Speaker 2: embrace sort of like the academic student athlete, you know,

2034
01:29:37,920 --> 01:29:41,960
Speaker 2: oversee your role because as you know, he loves education,

2035
01:29:42,160 --> 01:29:45,360
Speaker 2: probably just as much as not more than he loves football.

2036
01:29:45,400 --> 01:29:47,160
Speaker 2: He loves learning and just things of that nature.

2037
01:29:48,640 --> 01:29:53,799
Speaker 6: Yeah, nice plug there, KB he that's a good question, James.

2038
01:29:54,120 --> 01:29:58,320
Speaker 11: The most surprising thing that I heard from people around

2039
01:29:58,400 --> 01:30:00,599
Speaker 11: him to be the precher who lost his job to

2040
01:30:00,640 --> 01:30:03,200
Speaker 11: Andrew as a quarterback at Stanford and has remained close

2041
01:30:03,280 --> 01:30:07,000
Speaker 11: to him and Frank Reich as well. They were like Zach,

2042
01:30:07,080 --> 01:30:09,439
Speaker 11: we didn't think he was getting all in with the

2043
01:30:09,479 --> 01:30:14,760
Speaker 11: fundraising MC selling stuff, right, like we all know that

2044
01:30:14,800 --> 01:30:18,960
Speaker 11: guy that's not Andrew, and he loves that like Frank's

2045
01:30:19,080 --> 01:30:21,360
Speaker 11: like Zach, I saw him MC this event last night

2046
01:30:21,439 --> 01:30:24,280
Speaker 11: and I had to like make sure it was him,

2047
01:30:24,960 --> 01:30:28,320
Speaker 11: Like he's out there, And that's the surprising part because

2048
01:30:28,320 --> 01:30:30,479
Speaker 11: he was hidden, you know, he was he was like

2049
01:30:30,479 --> 01:30:32,800
Speaker 11: bigfoot around here for so long after he retired. And

2050
01:30:32,840 --> 01:30:36,040
Speaker 11: now he's out there every day. He's talking with reporters like, kyb,

2051
01:30:36,160 --> 01:30:38,360
Speaker 11: you're gonna get a kick out of this. Like when

2052
01:30:38,360 --> 01:30:42,080
Speaker 11: I walked into his office, he hugged me, like Andrew Lock,

2053
01:30:42,120 --> 01:30:44,800
Speaker 11: who would hide from reporters for half of his NFL

2054
01:30:44,880 --> 01:30:46,000
Speaker 11: career in Indianapolis.

2055
01:30:46,120 --> 01:30:47,800
Speaker 6: I was like, Oh, we're doing that now, like.

2056
01:30:47,800 --> 01:30:51,360
Speaker 11: It's now in fairness and fairness, we've been through a lot.

2057
01:30:52,040 --> 01:30:53,679
Speaker 6: But he's really happy.

2058
01:30:53,720 --> 01:30:57,599
Speaker 11: I think he's really happy that he's back in something

2059
01:30:57,800 --> 01:30:59,439
Speaker 11: like and this is what it This is what it

2060
01:30:59,439 --> 01:31:01,280
Speaker 11: went back to for me when I was talking to him,

2061
01:31:01,280 --> 01:31:03,639
Speaker 11: like he needed to be back in it. He needed

2062
01:31:03,640 --> 01:31:05,080
Speaker 11: to be back in a locker room, He needed to

2063
01:31:05,080 --> 01:31:08,080
Speaker 11: be back on a field. He feels reinvigorated. He has

2064
01:31:08,120 --> 01:31:11,000
Speaker 11: a challenge, like David Shaw says in the story, like

2065
01:31:11,040 --> 01:31:14,360
Speaker 11: Andrew was never a back of the room guy. You

2066
01:31:14,400 --> 01:31:16,800
Speaker 11: don't become one of the best college football quarterbacks ever

2067
01:31:16,880 --> 01:31:19,000
Speaker 11: if you're a back of the room guy. In the

2068
01:31:19,080 --> 01:31:21,519
Speaker 11: NFL and the way it ended kind of made him

2069
01:31:21,920 --> 01:31:24,520
Speaker 11: go into hiding. I don't think that fits his personality.

2070
01:31:24,560 --> 01:31:27,240
Speaker 11: I think this job fits it way more. But it's

2071
01:31:27,280 --> 01:31:30,200
Speaker 11: studying to see how out there he is, how much

2072
01:31:30,240 --> 01:31:33,599
Speaker 11: he's embracing all the things that he didn't like as

2073
01:31:33,640 --> 01:31:35,679
Speaker 11: an NFL player. He didn't like it when we would

2074
01:31:35,720 --> 01:31:38,600
Speaker 11: crowd around his locker. He didn't like all the press conferences.

2075
01:31:38,640 --> 01:31:41,200
Speaker 11: He didn't like all the celebrity aspects that came with

2076
01:31:41,280 --> 01:31:45,240
Speaker 11: being a star quarterback. And it seems like he's embracing

2077
01:31:45,320 --> 01:31:46,880
Speaker 11: all those aspects as.

2078
01:31:46,760 --> 01:31:47,679
Speaker 6: The Stanford GM.

2079
01:31:48,000 --> 01:31:50,400
Speaker 11: One he needs to he needs to raise money, he

2080
01:31:50,439 --> 01:31:52,880
Speaker 11: needs to shake hands and kiss babies and all that stuff.

2081
01:31:53,479 --> 01:31:56,479
Speaker 11: But two, I think he welcomes the challenge. I think

2082
01:31:56,520 --> 01:31:59,639
Speaker 11: he wants the challenge again because he knows he might fail.

2083
01:32:00,160 --> 01:32:02,080
Speaker 11: But like you said in the story, I'm a quarterback.

2084
01:32:02,200 --> 01:32:04,200
Speaker 11: I know what pressure feels like, and I think a

2085
01:32:04,240 --> 01:32:06,720
Speaker 11: lot of him missed that when he was away from

2086
01:32:06,760 --> 01:32:07,080
Speaker 11: the game.

2087
01:32:07,800 --> 01:32:10,840
Speaker 1: Zach, good stuff as always, great job of enterprising that

2088
01:32:10,880 --> 01:32:12,920
Speaker 1: and getting it together. I know you don't cover the

2089
01:32:12,920 --> 01:32:15,839
Speaker 1: cults every day, but I also know you pay attention.

2090
01:32:16,960 --> 01:32:19,160
Speaker 1: Jones or Richardson.

2091
01:32:20,120 --> 01:32:20,960
Speaker 6: Yes today to day.

2092
01:32:21,000 --> 01:32:23,880
Speaker 1: Can we get age it? We hope, we hope, we're

2093
01:32:23,880 --> 01:32:24,400
Speaker 1: looking for it.

2094
01:32:25,520 --> 01:32:28,160
Speaker 6: I mentioned this today JMV. Yesterday.

2095
01:32:28,360 --> 01:32:30,559
Speaker 11: I think it's going to be Richardson. I wanted to

2096
01:32:30,560 --> 01:32:32,920
Speaker 11: be Richardson. I don't feel like Jones has taken the

2097
01:32:33,040 --> 01:32:35,880
Speaker 11: job from him, But I go back to two things

2098
01:32:35,680 --> 01:32:38,040
Speaker 11: that give me pause with that. One is when I

2099
01:32:38,080 --> 01:32:40,800
Speaker 11: talked to Daniel Jones at training camp, and the first

2100
01:32:40,840 --> 01:32:43,360
Speaker 11: thing he said about what Shane told them about how

2101
01:32:43,360 --> 01:32:46,479
Speaker 11: the job would be decided was who the coaches trust

2102
01:32:47,000 --> 01:32:50,280
Speaker 11: that has stayed with me? And then secondly, I think

2103
01:32:50,360 --> 01:32:54,160
Speaker 11: James asked Shane on Saturday after the preseason loss, you know,

2104
01:32:54,160 --> 01:32:56,479
Speaker 11: how are you going to decide this? And the first

2105
01:32:56,479 --> 01:32:58,760
Speaker 11: thing he said was who's going to run the operation?

2106
01:32:59,520 --> 01:33:01,559
Speaker 11: Those are the only thing is that give me pause.

2107
01:33:01,600 --> 01:33:03,439
Speaker 11: I mean, Richardson couldn't even make it a series in

2108
01:33:03,479 --> 01:33:07,640
Speaker 11: the preseason without screwing something up and getting hurt. But

2109
01:33:07,680 --> 01:33:09,800
Speaker 11: I don't think Jones has done enough to win the

2110
01:33:09,920 --> 01:33:14,200
Speaker 11: job away from the incumbent. But we'll see, because those

2111
01:33:14,200 --> 01:33:16,240
Speaker 11: two things make me think it could be Daniel Jones.

2112
01:33:16,720 --> 01:33:19,120
Speaker 1: All right, buddy, we'll look for an answer. Maybe later

2113
01:33:19,160 --> 01:33:21,880
Speaker 1: today we'll talk to you soon. Great work, Zach, Thanks

2114
01:33:21,920 --> 01:33:24,400
Speaker 1: guys as always, Zach Keefer on the pay Less Lookers

2115
01:33:24,439 --> 01:33:26,720
Speaker 1: hotline and look there there are more than a few

2116
01:33:26,760 --> 01:33:29,479
Speaker 1: people that are texting me, getting at me on the

2117
01:33:29,920 --> 01:33:33,160
Speaker 1: on X and other things, saying enough luck stuff. Skivvy says,

2118
01:33:33,240 --> 01:33:36,519
Speaker 1: enough luck, luck stuff. He bailed, he got twenty five million.

2119
01:33:36,640 --> 01:33:38,439
Speaker 1: Good for him. People have moved on.

2120
01:33:38,680 --> 01:33:41,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, people still call Andrew Luck a quitter and don't

2121
01:33:41,920 --> 01:33:44,599
Speaker 4: want to think anything otherwise, And I get that that's

2122
01:33:44,680 --> 01:33:45,880
Speaker 4: part of being a sports fan.

2123
01:33:46,000 --> 01:33:47,160
Speaker 1: So yeah.

2124
01:33:47,160 --> 01:33:50,759
Speaker 4: I also thought Zach's piece hit on some different Andrew

2125
01:33:50,880 --> 01:33:54,160
Speaker 4: Luck related stuff that we hadn't heard of, and really

2126
01:33:54,520 --> 01:33:57,200
Speaker 4: a lot of it is GM focused why he used

2127
01:33:57,240 --> 01:34:00,200
Speaker 4: to becoming a GM, and he is definitely one of the

2128
01:34:00,200 --> 01:34:03,160
Speaker 4: more prominent college football gms. I mean, if you look around,

2129
01:34:03,200 --> 01:34:05,839
Speaker 4: I mean Notre Dames GM, for example, is a scout

2130
01:34:05,840 --> 01:34:09,599
Speaker 4: from the Detroit Lions. I mean, nobody like Andrew Luck.

2131
01:34:09,680 --> 01:34:16,840
Speaker 4: And I mean imagine eight months ago, me sitting here

2132
01:34:16,880 --> 01:34:19,479
Speaker 4: in the studios and on these airways saying, guys, we're

2133
01:34:19,520 --> 01:34:22,360
Speaker 4: gonna get Frank Reich versus Bill Belichick coming up this

2134
01:34:22,400 --> 01:34:27,920
Speaker 4: football season?

2135
01:34:28,560 --> 01:34:31,280
Speaker 3: Said yeah.

2136
01:34:32,040 --> 01:34:35,479
Speaker 4: Saturday November eighth, Stanford Cardinal with Frank Reich running out

2137
01:34:35,479 --> 01:34:38,240
Speaker 4: of the tunnel. Will Belichick run out of the tunnel?

2138
01:34:38,360 --> 01:34:41,120
Speaker 4: College football coaches they run out of the tunnel? Are

2139
01:34:41,120 --> 01:34:44,400
Speaker 4: the Is he gonna run? Or is Belichick He's gonna

2140
01:34:44,439 --> 01:34:46,040
Speaker 4: go with just a light job out of the North

2141
01:34:46,080 --> 01:34:50,280
Speaker 4: Carolina tunnel? Saturday, November eighth, Stanford at North Carolina. One

2142
01:34:50,400 --> 01:34:56,880
Speaker 4: item that Zach just hit on there late on Hell yeah,

2143
01:34:57,640 --> 01:35:00,320
Speaker 4: say that again, Martin. Let's the rivalry is back gone?

2144
01:35:00,840 --> 01:35:05,639
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I don't think it ended up happening. Zach

2145
01:35:05,720 --> 01:35:09,719
Speaker 4: brought up James Shane Stackens post game comments. Has Shane

2146
01:35:09,800 --> 01:35:14,280
Speaker 4: been bracing us for Daniel Jones.

2147
01:35:15,520 --> 01:35:18,040
Speaker 3: That or he has the greatest poker face ever?

2148
01:35:18,160 --> 01:35:19,920
Speaker 4: Or am I making way too much out of Shane

2149
01:35:19,960 --> 01:35:21,160
Speaker 4: Stackens comments, I.

2150
01:35:21,080 --> 01:35:22,559
Speaker 2: Think you're making a little too much out of it,

2151
01:35:22,920 --> 01:35:26,200
Speaker 2: mainly because of the play we've seen. The player we've

2152
01:35:26,240 --> 01:35:30,599
Speaker 2: seen with Daniel Jones has been more consistent than Anthony,

2153
01:35:31,200 --> 01:35:33,000
Speaker 2: but it's not like it's been by a mile.

2154
01:35:33,080 --> 01:35:33,839
Speaker 3: In my opinion.

2155
01:35:34,600 --> 01:35:36,680
Speaker 2: You look back at, Okay, the last few things they

2156
01:35:36,720 --> 01:35:40,200
Speaker 2: put on resume right the Packers game for Daniel Jones

2157
01:35:40,200 --> 01:35:45,719
Speaker 2: that is, Packers suck, terrible first drive, second drive, comes

2158
01:35:45,720 --> 01:35:48,360
Speaker 2: back and makes a little something happen. The joint practice

2159
01:35:48,400 --> 01:35:51,559
Speaker 2: one of his worst practices of the spring, or I'm

2160
01:35:51,560 --> 01:35:52,840
Speaker 2: sorry not to spring the preseason.

2161
01:35:53,640 --> 01:35:55,680
Speaker 3: You go back even further than that. You look at

2162
01:35:55,720 --> 01:35:58,160
Speaker 3: what he did. Guess the Ravens. It was okay.

2163
01:35:58,240 --> 01:36:02,160
Speaker 2: So I don't see this as something where he's suddenly

2164
01:36:02,200 --> 01:36:06,040
Speaker 2: turned himself into being this super operationally signed. Mean, the

2165
01:36:06,080 --> 01:36:08,040
Speaker 2: guy muffed a snap and I don't know if he's

2166
01:36:08,040 --> 01:36:10,400
Speaker 2: on the snap holder or.

2167
01:36:10,360 --> 01:36:12,240
Speaker 4: The center there, but like, look like it was right

2168
01:36:12,240 --> 01:36:12,639
Speaker 4: in his hands.

2169
01:36:12,680 --> 01:36:14,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm thinking, yeah, what are we talking about here?

2170
01:36:14,800 --> 01:36:16,000
Speaker 3: So I just don't want to I want to be

2171
01:36:16,000 --> 01:36:19,360
Speaker 3: careful with inflating a little bit too much of what

2172
01:36:19,560 --> 01:36:22,439
Speaker 3: we perceive Daniel jonesy versus what the reality of him

2173
01:36:22,800 --> 01:36:24,719
Speaker 3: is and what he has been in the NFL, which

2174
01:36:24,760 --> 01:36:27,040
Speaker 3: to you know, just put a button on this. He

2175
01:36:27,160 --> 01:36:29,720
Speaker 3: has been an erratic quarterback in his own right. Like

2176
01:36:29,800 --> 01:36:32,080
Speaker 3: this isn't some super percent like his compete percentage is

2177
01:36:32,080 --> 01:36:34,680
Speaker 3: sixty four percent for his career whooped dee doo, But

2178
01:36:34,840 --> 01:36:37,400
Speaker 3: like the player overall has not always been a very

2179
01:36:37,400 --> 01:36:38,040
Speaker 3: steady player.

2180
01:36:38,040 --> 01:36:39,639
Speaker 4: I want to hit on this at nine thirty because

2181
01:36:39,640 --> 01:36:42,000
Speaker 4: I want to expand on it, But I guess to

2182
01:36:42,160 --> 01:36:44,000
Speaker 4: just kind of put a boat on it right here,

2183
01:36:44,360 --> 01:36:46,479
Speaker 4: no matter what the announcement is, and we might get

2184
01:36:46,479 --> 01:36:48,120
Speaker 4: it here in less than two hours eleven and fifteen

2185
01:36:48,160 --> 01:36:51,320
Speaker 4: chains that can meet to media no matter what name

2186
01:36:51,400 --> 01:36:53,840
Speaker 4: he says, if he says one for the twenty twenty

2187
01:36:53,840 --> 01:36:55,800
Speaker 4: five the start of the twenty twenty five seasons is

2188
01:36:55,800 --> 01:36:57,479
Speaker 4: probably how we should word it, not the twenty twenty

2189
01:36:57,479 --> 01:36:59,840
Speaker 4: five season, the start of the twenty twenty five season.

2190
01:37:00,680 --> 01:37:03,120
Speaker 4: The winner is the lesser of two evils, like let

2191
01:37:03,120 --> 01:37:05,880
Speaker 4: me bake that very when we're debating any of this.

2192
01:37:06,680 --> 01:37:12,280
Speaker 4: The winner is not you know, the second coming of

2193
01:37:12,320 --> 01:37:16,880
Speaker 4: Brady Montana Manning whoever. Here, it's the lesser of two evils.

2194
01:37:16,880 --> 01:37:18,680
Speaker 4: That's just the reality of where the cult are at

2195
01:37:18,760 --> 01:37:20,240
Speaker 4: right now. But I want to expand a little bit

2196
01:37:20,280 --> 01:37:21,880
Speaker 4: on that coming up here after the break.

2197
01:37:21,960 --> 01:37:23,920
Speaker 1: We will do that about nine minutes, But right now,

2198
01:37:24,000 --> 01:37:24,599
Speaker 1: let's check.

2199
01:37:24,479 --> 01:37:28,680
Speaker 7: It down the morning checkdown on ninety sweet five and

2200
01:37:28,760 --> 01:37:30,519
Speaker 7: one oh seven five the Fan.

2201
01:37:31,360 --> 01:37:34,160
Speaker 1: While we anxiously await the words of Shane Steichen A

2202
01:37:34,200 --> 01:37:36,680
Speaker 1: little bit later on. Today, the Cults have announced that

2203
01:37:36,680 --> 01:37:41,280
Speaker 1: they've signed cornerback Zabian Howard, linebacker Jake Cheney, and linebacker

2204
01:37:41,360 --> 01:37:46,240
Speaker 1: Joseph Vaughan. They've also placed tackle Blake Freeland, linebacker Jacob Phillips,

2205
01:37:46,240 --> 01:37:50,040
Speaker 1: and safety Hunter Wohler on the IR. What's it all.

2206
01:37:49,920 --> 01:37:54,120
Speaker 2: Meaning, James, Well, it means that for Hunter Woller and

2207
01:37:54,160 --> 01:37:56,040
Speaker 2: Blake Freeland in particular, I did check on those who

2208
01:37:56,040 --> 01:37:57,680
Speaker 2: they're off for the rest of the season. Now, I

2209
01:37:57,760 --> 01:37:59,880
Speaker 2: mentioned earlier, you can bring two players back from IR

2210
01:38:00,600 --> 01:38:02,840
Speaker 2: with the new NFL rules, but those who are done

2211
01:38:02,920 --> 01:38:05,400
Speaker 2: for the year, So that's unfortunate there. And then for

2212
01:38:05,479 --> 01:38:09,240
Speaker 2: exaving Howard, he has some legal issues in the past

2213
01:38:09,360 --> 01:38:12,320
Speaker 2: that he certainly probably has to speak on at some

2214
01:38:12,360 --> 01:38:14,200
Speaker 2: point whenever we get in front of him. But from

2215
01:38:14,200 --> 01:38:17,439
Speaker 2: a play standpoint, he's a former four time Pro bowler,

2216
01:38:17,439 --> 01:38:20,120
Speaker 2: two time All Pro, and he's gonna help or in theory,

2217
01:38:20,160 --> 01:38:22,920
Speaker 2: help a banged up cornerback room. And from the sounds

2218
01:38:22,960 --> 01:38:24,960
Speaker 2: of it, Kevin, it sounds like he is being brought

2219
01:38:25,000 --> 01:38:27,200
Speaker 2: into play. According to lunerumba.

2220
01:38:26,760 --> 01:38:30,799
Speaker 4: Boy, I always think about this. Yesterday, I definitely remember

2221
01:38:30,880 --> 01:38:33,519
Speaker 4: him picking off Andrew Luck twice at the end of

2222
01:38:33,520 --> 01:38:36,640
Speaker 4: a first half in a game. Wait that might have

2223
01:38:36,680 --> 01:38:38,400
Speaker 4: been lux comeback here. It might have been the twenty

2224
01:38:38,400 --> 01:38:43,000
Speaker 4: eighteen season, they were outstanding, outstanding interceptions. But it is

2225
01:38:43,120 --> 01:38:45,599
Speaker 4: wild as I started to kind of rack my brain

2226
01:38:45,640 --> 01:38:48,000
Speaker 4: a little bit on the Xavier Howard career. You go

2227
01:38:48,120 --> 01:38:51,439
Speaker 4: back so far for when he was at this level.

2228
01:38:51,479 --> 01:38:54,080
Speaker 4: I mean, it's if this man comes in here, not

2229
01:38:54,120 --> 01:38:56,679
Speaker 4: only if he starts seventeen games, but if he plays

2230
01:38:56,680 --> 01:38:59,160
Speaker 4: at a high level, he'll be doing something that corners

2231
01:38:59,160 --> 01:39:01,519
Speaker 4: just don't do. Thirty two year old corners do not

2232
01:39:01,600 --> 01:39:04,759
Speaker 4: play at a high level in the NFL. Stefan Gilmore

2233
01:39:04,880 --> 01:39:08,240
Speaker 4: is the rare, rare exception of the rule there and

2234
01:39:08,280 --> 01:39:12,240
Speaker 4: the Colts all of a sudden exsumeing, assuming the exus

2235
01:39:12,439 --> 01:39:15,120
Speaker 4: clearly stuck in my brain that Xaviing Howard is going

2236
01:39:15,160 --> 01:39:17,719
Speaker 4: to be a starter. They have one of the oldest

2237
01:39:17,760 --> 01:39:20,479
Speaker 4: cornerback trios you've seen in Javerius Ward at twenty nine,

2238
01:39:20,560 --> 01:39:23,120
Speaker 4: Kenny Moore at thirty, and now Howard at thirty two.

2239
01:39:23,160 --> 01:39:26,360
Speaker 4: There so again, Hima lu Anarumo have history. First two

2240
01:39:26,439 --> 01:39:29,880
Speaker 4: years of Howard's career was with lou in Miami, and

2241
01:39:29,920 --> 01:39:32,400
Speaker 4: I get the cornerback situation is kind of put the

2242
01:39:32,439 --> 01:39:35,120
Speaker 4: Colts a little bit in a scrambling mode here, and

2243
01:39:35,160 --> 01:39:37,320
Speaker 4: this is quite the headlining move, honestly.

2244
01:39:37,640 --> 01:39:40,360
Speaker 1: All right, let's check the rest of the National Football League.

2245
01:39:40,400 --> 01:39:43,120
Speaker 1: Last night, a little Monday night the preseason action. Joe

2246
01:39:43,120 --> 01:39:46,320
Speaker 1: Burrow two drives with the Cincinnati Bengals, both of them

2247
01:39:46,360 --> 01:39:49,360
Speaker 1: turned into touchdowns. Jaydon Daniels had one drive for the

2248
01:39:49,360 --> 01:39:51,439
Speaker 1: Commanders that turned into a touchdown. He didn't throw a

2249
01:39:51,439 --> 01:39:53,679
Speaker 1: past JB, but he did score on a fourteen yard

2250
01:39:53,840 --> 01:39:56,960
Speaker 1: scamper before he left the game. Just one drive and out.

2251
01:39:57,200 --> 01:40:01,080
Speaker 1: So that's where we're at the preseason. Maybe Cincinnati, mm hmm,

2252
01:40:02,040 --> 01:40:04,680
Speaker 1: that's what the cults are. One o'clock that again, Saturday.

2253
01:40:04,320 --> 01:40:09,240
Speaker 5: Afternoon, Cincinnati, and you were on a Cincinnati There you go.

2254
01:40:09,360 --> 01:40:12,439
Speaker 4: Now, Joe Flacco is going to start against Cincinnati week one.

2255
01:40:12,439 --> 01:40:14,440
Speaker 4: Did I see that Browns.

2256
01:40:14,080 --> 01:40:16,200
Speaker 5: And name the number one started from the Browns?

2257
01:40:16,439 --> 01:40:16,679
Speaker 9: Yeah?

2258
01:40:17,120 --> 01:40:21,000
Speaker 2: Uh baby, my buddy on the Bengals beat Paul Dayer

2259
01:40:21,400 --> 01:40:24,320
Speaker 2: Junior for the Athletic. He tweeted out that that same

2260
01:40:24,360 --> 01:40:28,280
Speaker 2: sentence of Joe Flacco starting against uh, the Bengals in

2261
01:40:28,320 --> 01:40:30,760
Speaker 2: week one was true in two thousand and eight as well.

2262
01:40:31,080 --> 01:40:32,640
Speaker 2: So that's how long he's been playing football in the

2263
01:40:32,760 --> 01:40:33,840
Speaker 2: National League.

2264
01:40:34,280 --> 01:40:35,800
Speaker 4: So I didn't watch the game last night, but I

2265
01:40:35,800 --> 01:40:38,160
Speaker 4: saw these Borough highlights. You're telling me when he took

2266
01:40:38,160 --> 01:40:40,960
Speaker 4: those massive sacks, those still ended in touchdowns.

2267
01:40:41,520 --> 01:40:43,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to say he ended like I want

2268
01:40:43,720 --> 01:40:46,200
Speaker 2: to say he got a touchdown at least one of them.

2269
01:40:47,080 --> 01:40:49,200
Speaker 2: His preseason Sasha actually pretty good, Like four of the

2270
01:40:49,240 --> 01:40:53,160
Speaker 2: five drive they hadn't touchdowns in the drives, and so yeah,

2271
01:40:53,160 --> 01:40:55,200
Speaker 2: he looked legit. I was decided that he stayed in there.

2272
01:40:55,200 --> 01:40:56,400
Speaker 2: I've taken some of those big hits.

2273
01:40:57,040 --> 01:40:59,720
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball. Last night, the Milwaukee Brewers start their

2274
01:40:59,840 --> 01:41:02,479
Speaker 1: key series with the Cubs. The seven nothing shut out

2275
01:41:02,520 --> 01:41:04,720
Speaker 1: win in game one of what was supposed to be

2276
01:41:04,800 --> 01:41:06,880
Speaker 1: mark a doubleheader, but rain got in the way of

2277
01:41:06,920 --> 01:41:10,080
Speaker 1: the second one. They'll reschedule two of them today, the

2278
01:41:10,080 --> 01:41:13,040
Speaker 1: first one scheduled to start at two twenty and the

2279
01:41:13,080 --> 01:41:15,479
Speaker 1: bruis what's honestly, I'm asking this question now, what does

2280
01:41:15,520 --> 01:41:17,320
Speaker 1: that make the lead now for the Brewers in the summer.

2281
01:41:17,680 --> 01:41:20,000
Speaker 5: I'm ruling out the division for the Cubs at this point,

2282
01:41:20,040 --> 01:41:21,760
Speaker 5: but I think it's what is let me look real quick.

2283
01:41:21,760 --> 01:41:25,160
Speaker 5: I think it's nine games now, it's insane, it is, Yeah,

2284
01:41:25,240 --> 01:41:25,839
Speaker 5: nine games.

2285
01:41:27,320 --> 01:41:30,240
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Reds now chasing the Cubs. They win four to

2286
01:41:30,280 --> 01:41:34,920
Speaker 1: one over the Angels, and the Saint Louis Cardinals also

2287
01:41:34,960 --> 01:41:37,800
Speaker 1: played yesterday and they ended up with an eight three

2288
01:41:37,880 --> 01:41:41,000
Speaker 1: victory over the Miami Marlins. White Stress also beat the

2289
01:41:41,000 --> 01:41:43,439
Speaker 1: Braves thirteen to nine. Anything else you guys want to

2290
01:41:43,439 --> 01:41:44,920
Speaker 1: throw in this morning here, I.

2291
01:41:44,920 --> 01:41:47,240
Speaker 4: Have fever off again today. Tomorrow I think is a

2292
01:41:47,240 --> 01:41:49,519
Speaker 4: big day from Caitlin Clark can try to get back

2293
01:41:49,560 --> 01:41:53,080
Speaker 4: to practice. They'll play Friday and Sunday against Minnesota here,

2294
01:41:53,840 --> 01:41:56,559
Speaker 4: so that'll be something. Obviously, the Sophie Cunningham injury update,

2295
01:41:56,720 --> 01:41:59,519
Speaker 4: we will await that as well. And great to see

2296
01:41:59,560 --> 01:42:02,679
Speaker 4: that i U is really bolstering their non conference schedule

2297
01:42:02,720 --> 01:42:06,920
Speaker 4: here in football, the additions of Howard in Miami of Ohio.

2298
01:42:07,120 --> 01:42:09,120
Speaker 4: You guys want to hear the opponents that Indiana has

2299
01:42:09,120 --> 01:42:11,160
Speaker 4: in their non conference schedule for the next five years.

2300
01:42:11,200 --> 01:42:15,519
Speaker 4: I'm taking notes old Menyon Kennisall State, Indiana State, Howard,

2301
01:42:15,640 --> 01:42:19,960
Speaker 4: Colorado State, Western Kentucky, Kennisall State again, Indiana State again

2302
01:42:20,439 --> 01:42:25,200
Speaker 4: U mass Austin, p Miami of Ohio, Eastern Michigan, chirp

2303
01:42:25,320 --> 01:42:28,760
Speaker 4: Ball State, Eastern Illinois. And then one more time, the

2304
01:42:28,760 --> 01:42:31,880
Speaker 4: Fighting Jack Doyle's the Hilltoppers of Western Kentucky. They are

2305
01:42:31,920 --> 01:42:35,240
Speaker 4: the only power for team in college football without another

2306
01:42:35,280 --> 01:42:38,120
Speaker 4: power for opponent on the non conference schedule for the

2307
01:42:38,200 --> 01:42:38,840
Speaker 4: next five years.

2308
01:42:38,880 --> 01:42:43,080
Speaker 1: That's a murderer's row. If you're marrying, do they lose?

2309
01:42:43,479 --> 01:42:45,479
Speaker 4: You're all over your audio today, Mark, thank you?

2310
01:42:45,520 --> 01:42:47,720
Speaker 3: Which one of those games or a few of those

2311
01:42:47,720 --> 01:42:48,479
Speaker 3: games do they lose?

2312
01:42:48,640 --> 01:42:50,479
Speaker 4: Oh gosh, I was saying.

2313
01:42:50,680 --> 01:42:52,120
Speaker 3: The hardest part is trying to figure out that happened

2314
01:42:52,120 --> 01:42:53,760
Speaker 3: at some point, right, you got to get upstate at

2315
01:42:53,800 --> 01:42:54,200
Speaker 3: some point.

2316
01:42:54,320 --> 01:42:55,800
Speaker 5: The hardest part is trying to figure out who's the

2317
01:42:55,840 --> 01:42:57,719
Speaker 5: worst of the lot of the ads.

2318
01:42:58,080 --> 01:43:01,360
Speaker 4: Dexter, Williams Homayu quarterbacks will to be kennesas state starter

2319
01:43:01,439 --> 01:43:03,560
Speaker 4: in Week two. So that's just kind of a fun storyline.

2320
01:43:03,880 --> 01:43:05,639
Speaker 4: But I don't know, James, they got a first round

2321
01:43:05,680 --> 01:43:07,280
Speaker 4: pick a quarterback. Is are you going to be better

2322
01:43:07,280 --> 01:43:08,160
Speaker 4: than they were last year?

2323
01:43:09,840 --> 01:43:12,080
Speaker 2: That is a good question. I'm gonna say no because

2324
01:43:12,120 --> 01:43:13,679
Speaker 2: last year that I mean they, I mean, the schedule

2325
01:43:13,760 --> 01:43:16,599
Speaker 2: is definitely tough from the beach. But if this kid,

2326
01:43:16,600 --> 01:43:18,280
Speaker 2: I mean and Curtis Rourke had a very nice year.

2327
01:43:18,200 --> 01:43:19,680
Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying. Like he wasn't their quarterback play

2328
01:43:19,680 --> 01:43:20,519
Speaker 3: held him back right year?

2329
01:43:20,680 --> 01:43:23,720
Speaker 4: Right now? That is a good point coming up at

2330
01:43:23,720 --> 01:43:24,120
Speaker 4: a moment.

2331
01:43:24,520 --> 01:43:27,000
Speaker 1: More from Kevin. He's got thoughts. We'll let you hear

2332
01:43:27,040 --> 01:43:28,920
Speaker 1: him as we continue on ninety three five and one

2333
01:43:28,920 --> 01:43:29,800
Speaker 1: o seven five of the Fan.

2334
01:43:35,600 --> 01:43:38,320
Speaker 7: You were listening to a fan morning show on sports

2335
01:43:38,400 --> 01:43:41,040
Speaker 7: Radio ninety three to five and one oh seven five

2336
01:43:41,120 --> 01:43:45,320
Speaker 7: the Fan, Happy Tuesday, Welcome.

2337
01:43:45,080 --> 01:43:47,160
Speaker 1: Into the Fan Morning Show. Mark Deckton has always has

2338
01:43:47,200 --> 01:43:50,840
Speaker 1: our toes tapping this morning, and uh looking forward to

2339
01:43:50,880 --> 01:43:53,439
Speaker 1: a Shane Stiken press conference a little bit later on today.

2340
01:43:53,479 --> 01:43:56,679
Speaker 1: When when have we had a more anticipated Shane Stike

2341
01:43:56,720 --> 01:43:58,920
Speaker 1: and press conference in the in the last year or two?

2342
01:43:59,000 --> 01:44:01,959
Speaker 4: Kevin, Gosh, probably one of those.

2343
01:44:01,880 --> 01:44:03,760
Speaker 5: When if you look forward to hearing Shane Styke and

2344
01:44:03,760 --> 01:44:04,599
Speaker 5: speak Kevin.

2345
01:44:05,560 --> 01:44:08,760
Speaker 4: Probably one of those benchings, right or why?

2346
01:44:09,040 --> 01:44:11,840
Speaker 2: It's a funny question from Mark because the answer to

2347
01:44:11,840 --> 01:44:13,800
Speaker 2: that is probably originally for me.

2348
01:44:13,960 --> 01:44:16,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think Shane's a nice dude. I enjoy talking

2349
01:44:16,840 --> 01:44:19,920
Speaker 4: to him, you know, away from the microphone. But well, boy, yeah,

2350
01:44:19,960 --> 01:44:21,920
Speaker 4: on the microphone, it's right, the old mike it is

2351
01:44:22,600 --> 01:44:24,160
Speaker 4: it can be pulling teeth. I want to go back

2352
01:44:24,160 --> 01:44:26,880
Speaker 4: to something that we talked about James brought up a

2353
01:44:26,920 --> 01:44:30,280
Speaker 4: little bit before the morning Checkdown in regards to Anthony

2354
01:44:30,320 --> 01:44:32,760
Speaker 4: Richard and Daniel Jones and evaluating them. You know, aren't

2355
01:44:32,760 --> 01:44:35,000
Speaker 4: they really close? And yeah, I mean I largely think

2356
01:44:35,000 --> 01:44:37,680
Speaker 4: if you watch them over the last three weeks, separation

2357
01:44:37,800 --> 01:44:41,000
Speaker 4: has not really been there. But if you just look at, like,

2358
01:44:42,960 --> 01:44:44,120
Speaker 4: what are their worst plays?

2359
01:44:45,120 --> 01:44:46,920
Speaker 3: Oh man, where is this conversation going?

2360
01:44:47,200 --> 01:44:50,200
Speaker 4: And in the preseason you would probably say, like, Daniel

2361
01:44:50,280 --> 01:44:53,439
Speaker 4: Jones's worst play was I don't know, air mailing Tyler

2362
01:44:53,479 --> 01:44:57,360
Speaker 4: warn okay, and Anthony Richson's worst play was probably the

2363
01:44:57,360 --> 01:45:01,080
Speaker 4: Baltimore play, right, So what that happened on those two plays?

2364
01:45:01,280 --> 01:45:06,840
Speaker 4: Jones theoretically made the right read, bad throw incomplete. Richardson

2365
01:45:07,240 --> 01:45:12,519
Speaker 4: makes the wrong read, dislocates his spinky out for the

2366
01:45:12,520 --> 01:45:16,160
Speaker 4: rest of the game, Varius that could have been strip sack.

2367
01:45:16,840 --> 01:45:18,880
Speaker 4: Go back to joint practice with Green Bay last week.

2368
01:45:19,120 --> 01:45:22,479
Speaker 4: Both of them didn't have a good day. Richardson was

2369
01:45:22,560 --> 01:45:25,120
Speaker 4: nine to twenty. I don't think Jones's numbers tell how

2370
01:45:25,400 --> 01:45:27,000
Speaker 4: rocky of the day it was for him. Yeah, I

2371
01:45:27,080 --> 01:45:28,960
Speaker 4: thought it was a rock here. E think two picks

2372
01:45:29,720 --> 01:45:30,280
Speaker 4: wasn't his fault?

2373
01:45:30,520 --> 01:45:33,240
Speaker 1: Thirteen to sixteen, throw on the box, snap for Daniel

2374
01:45:33,320 --> 01:45:34,040
Speaker 1: Jones to snap.

2375
01:45:34,200 --> 01:45:37,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I mean he did get on it. But yes,

2376
01:45:37,160 --> 01:45:42,559
Speaker 4: you know, when you look at their worst plays, is

2377
01:45:42,560 --> 01:45:46,560
Speaker 4: there any sort of element that Shane Sikin says the

2378
01:45:46,680 --> 01:45:48,600
Speaker 4: Jones one is a little bit more controllable than the

2379
01:45:48,680 --> 01:45:53,519
Speaker 4: Richardson ones when you've got offensively, we're trusting our quarterback

2380
01:45:53,520 --> 01:45:55,479
Speaker 4: to make sure everyone's on the same page, and ten

2381
01:45:55,560 --> 01:45:57,960
Speaker 4: dudes are on the same page in Baltimore, But yet

2382
01:45:58,000 --> 01:46:00,639
Speaker 4: that guy's not on the same page in a vanilla

2383
01:46:01,320 --> 01:46:06,120
Speaker 4: preseason setting, Like is that something that the head coach

2384
01:46:06,360 --> 01:46:09,439
Speaker 4: can't get out of his head of the question that

2385
01:46:09,640 --> 01:46:12,320
Speaker 4: we played the dani Olaski audio earlier. Who do you

2386
01:46:12,320 --> 01:46:16,879
Speaker 4: trust more? Who do you trust more? If you're whatever,

2387
01:46:17,200 --> 01:46:18,920
Speaker 4: here are the keys to the car, you can take

2388
01:46:18,960 --> 01:46:21,320
Speaker 4: my daughter on a date? Who's keys?

2389
01:46:22,080 --> 01:46:24,880
Speaker 1: In either case, a father is trusting a seventeen year

2390
01:46:24,920 --> 01:46:25,559
Speaker 1: old kid.

2391
01:46:25,520 --> 01:46:28,919
Speaker 4: One thousand percent. Again, it's the lesser of two evils.

2392
01:46:29,040 --> 01:46:33,320
Speaker 4: Let me be abundantly clear on that. But I don't

2393
01:46:33,640 --> 01:46:35,559
Speaker 4: we play this game naturally on the beat of like

2394
01:46:35,600 --> 01:46:37,280
Speaker 4: you have to put yourself in chains. I can choose,

2395
01:46:38,880 --> 01:46:41,559
Speaker 4: And it almost seems like some of his words have

2396
01:46:41,720 --> 01:46:44,240
Speaker 4: like been and again maybe I'm making way too much

2397
01:46:44,240 --> 01:46:47,519
Speaker 4: out of his words have been like bracing us for

2398
01:46:47,640 --> 01:46:48,360
Speaker 4: Daniel Jones.

2399
01:46:49,880 --> 01:46:53,880
Speaker 1: What does it do? Honestly? And we heard Orlowski talk

2400
01:46:53,920 --> 01:46:55,960
Speaker 1: about that, maybe we'll play it again just for those

2401
01:46:55,960 --> 01:46:59,240
Speaker 1: who are just joining us, but talking about the fact

2402
01:46:59,320 --> 01:47:01,960
Speaker 1: that you know, it's not just who you trust who

2403
01:47:01,960 --> 01:47:04,200
Speaker 1: can make plays, But I mean, what does it do

2404
01:47:05,080 --> 01:47:07,360
Speaker 1: if you have to bench him for a second time?

2405
01:47:07,439 --> 01:47:08,599
Speaker 1: Is that it is that the end?

2406
01:47:08,960 --> 01:47:09,200
Speaker 10: Yeah?

2407
01:47:09,240 --> 01:47:12,679
Speaker 4: I mean Anthony Richardson obviously past present would indicate, yes,

2408
01:47:14,000 --> 01:47:15,960
Speaker 4: find me an NFL quarterback that has at the career

2409
01:47:16,040 --> 01:47:17,640
Speaker 4: ark of Anthony and Richardson and turned out to be

2410
01:47:17,680 --> 01:47:18,439
Speaker 4: something in the league.

2411
01:47:19,360 --> 01:47:21,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, we've been talking about it a lot, but.

2412
01:47:21,520 --> 01:47:24,519
Speaker 4: I mean haven't we all said as well that you know,

2413
01:47:24,600 --> 01:47:26,640
Speaker 4: the person that doesn't get named the starter today is

2414
01:47:26,680 --> 01:47:28,439
Speaker 4: just three weeks away from being the starter or what

2415
01:47:28,600 --> 01:47:29,599
Speaker 4: six weeks away from being.

2416
01:47:29,520 --> 01:47:31,439
Speaker 1: The fans to be clamoring for that probably a week

2417
01:47:31,479 --> 01:47:34,439
Speaker 1: four two, Mark, let's play that Dana Rolofsky audio. Again,

2418
01:47:34,640 --> 01:47:37,720
Speaker 1: We've been talking about a lot, obviously here in Indianapolis,

2419
01:47:37,880 --> 01:47:41,000
Speaker 1: but they were talking about it with Dani Rolofsky at

2420
01:47:41,240 --> 01:47:44,480
Speaker 1: ESPN last night. And here's kind of a national perspective.

2421
01:47:44,680 --> 01:47:47,240
Speaker 8: I would lean Anthony Richardson just because he has.

2422
01:47:47,160 --> 01:47:48,599
Speaker 4: To play and you took him forth.

2423
01:47:49,040 --> 01:47:51,880
Speaker 8: The challenge for the Colts aar is one, who do

2424
01:47:51,960 --> 01:47:53,719
Speaker 8: you trust at that position the most?

2425
01:47:54,040 --> 01:47:54,479
Speaker 6: And then to.

2426
01:47:54,720 --> 01:47:58,040
Speaker 8: Which quarterback do you truly believe can get all of

2427
01:47:58,080 --> 01:48:00,680
Speaker 8: your playmakers to football. Tyler war in their first round

2428
01:48:00,760 --> 01:48:04,200
Speaker 8: draft pick, needs touches really good player. Michael Pittman Jr.

2429
01:48:04,560 --> 01:48:06,720
Speaker 8: Needs to get the ball in his hands. They've got

2430
01:48:06,760 --> 01:48:10,360
Speaker 8: a ton of talented perimeter players. Josh Downs is going

2431
01:48:10,400 --> 01:48:13,200
Speaker 8: to become one of the better slot receivers in the NFL.

2432
01:48:13,320 --> 01:48:16,640
Speaker 8: A d Mitchell, another big time playmaker, Alec Pearson. So

2433
01:48:17,080 --> 01:48:20,200
Speaker 8: the quarterback isn't necessarily the guy that has to put

2434
01:48:20,240 --> 01:48:22,599
Speaker 8: on this cape and carry this offense. There's a ton

2435
01:48:22,640 --> 01:48:25,639
Speaker 8: of really talented players on the perimeter, and so if

2436
01:48:25,640 --> 01:48:28,160
Speaker 8: you're Shane Steichen, their head coach, it's like, what quarterback

2437
01:48:28,200 --> 01:48:30,839
Speaker 8: do you trust not only to just run your offense,

2438
01:48:31,240 --> 01:48:34,280
Speaker 8: but to just play point guard? And that makes me

2439
01:48:34,479 --> 01:48:37,880
Speaker 8: lean Daniel Jones. My reservation is this, if you go

2440
01:48:38,080 --> 01:48:41,679
Speaker 8: Daniel Jones, are you then saying Anthony Richardson is done

2441
01:48:41,720 --> 01:48:43,760
Speaker 8: because you're going with Daniel Jones to sit there and

2442
01:48:43,800 --> 01:48:46,360
Speaker 8: go win his football games. And if that's the case

2443
01:48:46,400 --> 01:48:50,080
Speaker 8: and he does that, Anthony Richardson once again does not

2444
01:48:50,360 --> 01:48:52,479
Speaker 8: get on the field and get reps, which is the

2445
01:48:52,560 --> 01:48:54,920
Speaker 8: number one thing he needs. So I think it's a

2446
01:48:55,040 --> 01:48:58,280
Speaker 8: very difficult situation because you're choosing the now or you're

2447
01:48:58,360 --> 01:49:01,520
Speaker 8: choosing the future in both of them are separate.

2448
01:49:03,280 --> 01:49:03,559
Speaker 1: Thoughts.

2449
01:49:03,640 --> 01:49:09,080
Speaker 2: James Boyd, I think I think everything he said was

2450
01:49:09,160 --> 01:49:16,640
Speaker 2: pretty valid, But I just wonder how much we can

2451
01:49:16,680 --> 01:49:19,160
Speaker 2: weigh your future that you're not so sure of. This

2452
01:49:19,240 --> 01:49:22,439
Speaker 2: isn't two years ago when you got Anthony all his

2453
01:49:22,520 --> 01:49:25,400
Speaker 2: promises out there. I don't think there's a future really

2454
01:49:25,479 --> 01:49:27,200
Speaker 2: or a longer rope with either quarterback.

2455
01:49:27,240 --> 01:49:28,920
Speaker 3: I think this is a make or break year for both.

2456
01:49:29,360 --> 01:49:31,519
Speaker 2: For Daniel Jones, you're looking for redemption and a chance

2457
01:49:31,560 --> 01:49:33,360
Speaker 2: to prove if you're a starting caliber quarterback in the

2458
01:49:33,479 --> 01:49:36,559
Speaker 2: NFL again, and if you don't prove that this year,

2459
01:49:36,600 --> 01:49:39,280
Speaker 2: I don't think that career redemption arc is coming at any

2460
01:49:39,240 --> 01:49:42,280
Speaker 2: point after this. And then for Anthony, you're trying to

2461
01:49:42,280 --> 01:49:44,679
Speaker 2: prove that you are or capable of being a starting

2462
01:49:44,680 --> 01:49:48,240
Speaker 2: caliber quarterback in the NFL and potentially the face of

2463
01:49:48,240 --> 01:49:50,600
Speaker 2: the franchise. But again, you're asking him to do a

2464
01:49:50,640 --> 01:49:53,400
Speaker 2: lot of stuff he just hasn't done in the past,

2465
01:49:53,439 --> 01:49:55,920
Speaker 2: and the two biggest ones being stay healthy and be accurate,

2466
01:49:56,600 --> 01:49:58,160
Speaker 2: and can all that change in one year? I'm not

2467
01:49:58,200 --> 01:50:00,920
Speaker 2: so sure. So I would roll with Anthony, that would

2468
01:50:00,920 --> 01:50:03,040
Speaker 2: be my pick. But I could totally see why they

2469
01:50:03,040 --> 01:50:07,040
Speaker 2: would choose Daniel Jones in an instance, because if you're

2470
01:50:07,040 --> 01:50:09,600
Speaker 2: just trying to win games, perhaps he gives you the

2471
01:50:09,600 --> 01:50:12,639
Speaker 2: better chance. But yeah, this is a situation. I don't

2472
01:50:12,720 --> 01:50:14,080
Speaker 2: envy ever being in a situation.

2473
01:50:14,160 --> 01:50:14,320
Speaker 9: Only.

2474
01:50:14,560 --> 01:50:17,280
Speaker 3: The only time I would ever want to.

2475
01:50:17,280 --> 01:50:20,839
Speaker 2: Twitch seats with Shang Styke, at least in this particular instance,

2476
01:50:20,960 --> 01:50:23,880
Speaker 2: is for the check. Other than that, No, like this

2477
01:50:23,960 --> 01:50:26,879
Speaker 2: is the worst decision. I mean, I could talk myself

2478
01:50:26,880 --> 01:50:28,920
Speaker 2: into either or and not feel good about either or.

2479
01:50:29,479 --> 01:50:31,400
Speaker 3: Like as Kevin's laid it.

2480
01:50:31,360 --> 01:50:34,880
Speaker 2: Out, he started the conversation by saying, let's take a

2481
01:50:34,880 --> 01:50:36,200
Speaker 2: look at their worst plays.

2482
01:50:37,439 --> 01:50:40,240
Speaker 3: That's that lets you know how ruff it's been.

2483
01:50:40,960 --> 01:50:44,760
Speaker 4: I mean, I could talk into a lot of things though, No, absolutely, absolutely,

2484
01:50:44,800 --> 01:50:47,879
Speaker 4: the sight of the building, guys, Kenny Moore, Quentin Nelson,

2485
01:50:48,200 --> 01:50:53,000
Speaker 4: the Forrest Buckner, jam Taylor. Yeah, you think Shange Stykeen

2486
01:50:53,040 --> 01:50:54,840
Speaker 4: has asked them their thoughts at all on this?

2487
01:50:56,200 --> 01:50:56,920
Speaker 3: I think I think not.

2488
01:50:57,040 --> 01:50:59,320
Speaker 1: Actually, no, do you think, like indirectly though, he's paying

2489
01:50:59,320 --> 01:51:02,760
Speaker 1: attention to the thing that they're saying, just general conversations

2490
01:51:02,760 --> 01:51:05,120
Speaker 1: you might be having with them, trying to get a

2491
01:51:05,160 --> 01:51:08,280
Speaker 1: read on how the team feels in that huddle, because

2492
01:51:08,280 --> 01:51:10,479
Speaker 1: I've heard so many coaches say the team knows who

2493
01:51:10,479 --> 01:51:12,360
Speaker 1: the starting quarterback is before the coach does.

2494
01:51:14,400 --> 01:51:16,679
Speaker 2: I don't really think so, and I don't think you should.

2495
01:51:16,920 --> 01:51:19,200
Speaker 2: I don't think you should be going to DeForest Buckner

2496
01:51:19,360 --> 01:51:21,960
Speaker 2: and John Taylor and others to figure out who your

2497
01:51:22,000 --> 01:51:23,960
Speaker 2: starting quarterback is if you do. If you're doing that, honestly,

2498
01:51:23,960 --> 01:51:25,559
Speaker 2: I feel like you probably shouldn't make a decision.

2499
01:51:25,760 --> 01:51:27,400
Speaker 5: I was gonna say, if you're the head coach, he's

2500
01:51:27,439 --> 01:51:30,439
Speaker 5: your decision, your decision alone. Otherwise you're getting too many

2501
01:51:30,439 --> 01:51:31,559
Speaker 5: thoughts in your head, and all of a sudden, you're

2502
01:51:31,600 --> 01:51:34,200
Speaker 5: starting to let the locker room dictate your decision making,

2503
01:51:34,240 --> 01:51:34,720
Speaker 5: which is never it.

2504
01:51:35,000 --> 01:51:37,519
Speaker 4: Yeah, it dictates probably too big of a word for me,

2505
01:51:37,760 --> 01:51:40,760
Speaker 4: But I don't know. I probably a pulse of the leadership.

2506
01:51:41,560 --> 01:51:44,320
Speaker 4: I think he's interesting. And I also, I don't you know,

2507
01:51:44,400 --> 01:51:47,040
Speaker 4: Quentin Nelson has always had very public praise for Anthony Richardson.

2508
01:51:47,760 --> 01:51:50,320
Speaker 4: I would be very curious how like that locker room

2509
01:51:50,439 --> 01:51:55,960
Speaker 4: generally would vote. I think there is an element of like, hey,

2510
01:51:56,080 --> 01:52:00,280
Speaker 4: you need Anthony because he creates plays that like are necessary.

2511
01:52:00,800 --> 01:52:05,160
Speaker 4: But also is there frustration of like, wait, hey, when

2512
01:52:05,200 --> 01:52:06,640
Speaker 4: we're all on the same page and he's not on

2513
01:52:06,680 --> 01:52:10,439
Speaker 4: the same page, what the hell like aren't we all

2514
01:52:10,439 --> 01:52:12,400
Speaker 4: held to the same standard. I could see that being

2515
01:52:12,479 --> 01:52:16,160
Speaker 4: so split and how they view that. And if you're

2516
01:52:16,280 --> 01:52:19,800
Speaker 4: like Jonathan Taylor or whatever, do you sit there and say, hey,

2517
01:52:19,840 --> 01:52:21,479
Speaker 4: we've got a good running game. We've got all these

2518
01:52:21,479 --> 01:52:24,280
Speaker 4: pass catchers. Danie Rolotski just laid it out. Just get

2519
01:52:24,280 --> 01:52:26,320
Speaker 4: the ball to the pass catchers. Even if you do

2520
01:52:26,360 --> 01:52:30,000
Speaker 4: it in a simple manner, you can you know, boom,

2521
01:52:30,120 --> 01:52:31,280
Speaker 4: Tyler Warren can catch them.

2522
01:52:31,320 --> 01:52:31,479
Speaker 1: R On.

2523
01:52:31,600 --> 01:52:33,760
Speaker 4: You know our defense is going to be better. It's

2524
01:52:35,400 --> 01:52:37,000
Speaker 4: I feel like that locker room would have a lot

2525
01:52:37,040 --> 01:52:37,760
Speaker 4: of debate on it.

2526
01:52:37,960 --> 01:52:40,840
Speaker 1: Did you make anything out of the fact the other

2527
01:52:40,920 --> 01:52:43,080
Speaker 1: night that one of the first passes that Daniel Jones

2528
01:52:43,120 --> 01:52:45,640
Speaker 1: threw was a long bomb over the top. It was

2529
01:52:45,640 --> 01:52:48,000
Speaker 1: not successful, but he took a shot downfield one of

2530
01:52:48,000 --> 01:52:49,400
Speaker 1: his first few passes.

2531
01:52:51,720 --> 01:52:54,160
Speaker 4: Like male of Warren. I'm trying to think which play

2532
01:52:54,160 --> 01:52:54,400
Speaker 4: it was.

2533
01:52:54,479 --> 01:52:55,760
Speaker 1: I think it was early on. I'll go back and

2534
01:52:55,760 --> 01:52:58,000
Speaker 1: look what. Maybe you remember which one it was, James,

2535
01:52:58,000 --> 01:52:59,800
Speaker 1: but it was almost like, hey, I can throw deep.

2536
01:53:00,400 --> 01:53:01,920
Speaker 1: They didn't complete the pass.

2537
01:53:02,280 --> 01:53:03,519
Speaker 3: Well, I don't remember this play.

2538
01:53:03,600 --> 01:53:03,840
Speaker 1: I don't know.

2539
01:53:03,920 --> 01:53:06,360
Speaker 2: His first play was a past the mobile that was

2540
01:53:06,400 --> 01:53:10,240
Speaker 2: short and he ran for nine, but I don't remember

2541
01:53:10,240 --> 01:53:10,599
Speaker 2: any other.

2542
01:53:10,880 --> 01:53:13,160
Speaker 1: I'm having fever dreams between the two or James.

2543
01:53:13,160 --> 01:53:15,479
Speaker 4: I know it said this the the Daniel Jones throwing

2544
01:53:15,479 --> 01:53:18,360
Speaker 4: the ball down the field. It's not Matt Ryan shot

2545
01:53:18,479 --> 01:53:20,720
Speaker 4: arm at the age of whatever age Matt Ryan was

2546
01:53:20,720 --> 01:53:23,280
Speaker 4: two years ago. He can throw it down the field

2547
01:53:23,360 --> 01:53:27,559
Speaker 4: like there is an arm. It's a willingness and an

2548
01:53:27,640 --> 01:53:30,200
Speaker 4: accuracy factor. I mean, in the spring, I can think

2549
01:53:30,200 --> 01:53:32,400
Speaker 4: of at least two or three times Alex Pierce holding

2550
01:53:32,439 --> 01:53:35,880
Speaker 4: a deep ball from him. Yeah, it's just you know,

2551
01:53:35,920 --> 01:53:38,000
Speaker 4: taking those chances in game settings.

2552
01:53:38,640 --> 01:53:40,800
Speaker 1: All right, coming up at a moment, Mark, we got

2553
01:53:40,800 --> 01:53:44,439
Speaker 1: a couple of things right now, right right here. Anybody

2554
01:53:44,439 --> 01:53:48,080
Speaker 1: who tucks in India eleven the third text, you get

2555
01:53:48,120 --> 01:53:50,679
Speaker 1: that says India eleven. Mark, we've got a family four

2556
01:53:50,760 --> 01:53:51,960
Speaker 1: pack to an upcoming game.

2557
01:53:52,080 --> 01:53:53,920
Speaker 5: We got two family four packs two today.

2558
01:53:54,040 --> 01:53:56,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, so you would take three and five?

2559
01:53:56,560 --> 01:53:59,599
Speaker 1: How about that? Sure, Texter, make me more for India eleven.

2560
01:53:59,640 --> 01:54:02,760
Speaker 1: You got to Indy eleven. You have to work anything.

2561
01:54:02,760 --> 01:54:03,640
Speaker 1: You just have to look at him.

2562
01:54:05,160 --> 01:54:06,200
Speaker 4: Were eleven right now?

2563
01:54:06,760 --> 01:54:10,240
Speaker 1: Indie? Either way, whatever's easier for you on the text line?

2564
01:54:10,920 --> 01:54:13,400
Speaker 1: Uh so, yeah, two family four packs for that. Also,

2565
01:54:14,280 --> 01:54:17,080
Speaker 1: I was just delighted in hearing a former college football

2566
01:54:17,120 --> 01:54:19,880
Speaker 1: coach discussing a great story this morning. I'll let you

2567
01:54:19,920 --> 01:54:21,640
Speaker 1: hear some of that, and you let me know if

2568
01:54:21,640 --> 01:54:23,679
Speaker 1: you're delighted about it too. We'll talk about it next

2569
01:54:23,680 --> 01:54:25,720
Speaker 1: as we continue ninety three five and one o seven five.

2570
01:54:27,000 --> 01:54:29,839
Speaker 7: If you're listening to a fan morning show on sports

2571
01:54:29,960 --> 01:54:32,560
Speaker 7: radio ninety three to five and one oh seven five,

01:54:32,640 --> 01:54:33,320

Speaker 1: Not going on here in the nine o'clock hour, mark,

2574
01:54:36,480 --> 01:54:38,520
Speaker 1: do we have not one, but two winners from the

2575
01:54:38,520 --> 01:54:41,480
Speaker 1: text line for the Indye eleven family four packs.

2576
01:54:41,880 --> 01:54:44,440
Speaker 5: Yes, I'm still getting all the names together, but Nick

2577
01:54:44,520 --> 01:54:46,360
Speaker 5: is one winner. And then we've got another guy who's

2578
01:54:46,400 --> 01:54:48,440
Speaker 5: giving me his info as we speak. All right, so

2579
01:54:48,640 --> 01:54:50,040

01:54:49,840 --> 01:54:51,640
Speaker 1: And towards the end of the hour here we will

2581
01:54:51,680 --> 01:54:54,960
Speaker 1: have another slot open for the fan morning show Fantasy

2582
01:54:55,000 --> 01:54:55,600
Speaker 1: Football League.

2583
01:54:55,600 --> 01:54:58,720
Speaker 5: Correct, Sure, we've got We've got spaces to fill. We've

2584
01:54:58,760 --> 01:55:02,360
Speaker 5: got the draft on September third. We already know one

2585
01:55:02,400 --> 01:55:04,320
Speaker 5: player is off the draft board. That is Ady Mitchell.

2586
01:55:04,320 --> 01:55:07,240
Speaker 5: He's going first overall to Jeff. Everybody else is on

2587
01:55:07,280 --> 01:55:10,680
Speaker 5: the board, so plenty of players to get at.

2588
01:55:11,040 --> 01:55:14,280
Speaker 1: Maybe more of a third rounder. I'm thinking, okay, we'll see, Okay,

2589
01:55:14,320 --> 01:55:16,080
Speaker 1: we'll see. We'll see how the draft board breaks down.

2590
01:55:16,120 --> 01:55:18,480
Speaker 1: You know, James might swoop in and take it all

2591
01:55:18,520 --> 01:55:19,120
Speaker 1: away from me.

2592
01:55:19,640 --> 01:55:22,480
Speaker 5: I heard James isn't in the league, right, Yeah, James,

2593
01:55:22,560 --> 01:55:23,800
Speaker 5: I'm not in the league. You guys want to you

2594
01:55:23,800 --> 01:55:25,760
Speaker 5: get to know. He's like duo, a team you can

2595
01:55:25,840 --> 01:55:28,880
Speaker 5: you can be part owners, co managers about I.

2596
01:55:28,800 --> 01:55:30,720
Speaker 2: Feel like I'm do with enough football during the season.

2597
01:55:30,800 --> 01:55:32,960
Speaker 2: The thought of me trying to change a lineup every

2598
01:55:33,040 --> 01:55:33,680
Speaker 2: week is.

2599
01:55:33,680 --> 01:55:36,280
Speaker 3: Just before time. That causes anxiety.

2600
01:55:36,360 --> 01:55:38,600
Speaker 5: Joe, I left the Kickers slot open.

2601
01:55:39,640 --> 01:55:40,480
Speaker 4: James, get in there.

2602
01:55:40,560 --> 01:55:44,760
Speaker 1: I'm gonna name my team James Boyd's proxy. Oh like that. Okay,

2603
01:55:45,280 --> 01:55:48,040
Speaker 1: but early this morning, I heard a clip that I

2604
01:55:48,080 --> 01:55:49,960
Speaker 1: had to share with the rest of y'all. We all

2605
01:55:50,000 --> 01:55:52,600
Speaker 1: know and love ed Orgeron when he speaks right, maybe

2606
01:55:52,600 --> 01:55:54,480

Speaker 4: he's showing to be have I told you I can't

2661
01:58:11,440 --> 01:58:12,560
Speaker 4: wait for Notre Dame to start up.

2662
01:58:12,600 --> 01:58:15,120
Speaker 1: I've noticed that out today.

2663
01:58:15,640 --> 01:58:18,040
Speaker 4: Week from Sunday, No other Dame Miami down there.

2664
01:58:18,960 --> 01:58:19,760
Speaker 3: Are you nervous at all?

2665
01:58:19,840 --> 01:58:23,240
Speaker 4: Orange out, very nervous. Yes, they're literally starting.

2666
01:58:23,360 --> 01:58:25,480
Speaker 5: Starting to sweat under his hits right now.

2667
01:58:26,160 --> 01:58:26,960
Speaker 4: You asked that question.

2668
01:58:27,400 --> 01:58:29,600
Speaker 3: The question didn't even get like hung in the air

2669
01:58:29,720 --> 01:58:30,120
Speaker 3: at all.

2670
01:58:30,400 --> 01:58:33,040
Speaker 4: The starting quarterback has either played one of them has

2671
01:58:33,040 --> 01:58:35,200
Speaker 4: played four snaps against Perdue last year, which doesn't even

2672
01:58:35,200 --> 01:58:37,840
Speaker 4: count as real football wow, or the other one played

2673
01:58:37,840 --> 01:58:39,760
Speaker 4: four snaps against pretty last year. You know it's bad

2674
01:58:39,760 --> 01:58:42,760
Speaker 4: when two dudes got in the game against one team.

2675
01:58:42,800 --> 01:58:45,160
Speaker 4: That is true, Yeah, it was it was time to

2676
01:58:45,200 --> 01:58:47,400
Speaker 4: get both the dudes who never play in the game.

2677
01:58:48,120 --> 01:58:49,800
Speaker 1: Third quarter for one, fourth quarter for another.

2678
01:58:49,880 --> 01:58:52,480
Speaker 4: Well it was only four snaps each. So you know, honestly,

2679
01:58:52,520 --> 01:58:56,480
Speaker 4: in all seriousness, Notre Dame has a top ten You

2680
01:58:56,520 --> 01:58:58,160
Speaker 4: know how many times are we going to see this

2681
01:58:58,160 --> 01:59:01,280
Speaker 4: in college football moving forward? You have a top ten

2682
01:59:01,400 --> 01:59:06,760
Speaker 4: team and yet the projected starting quarterback, either of them,

2683
01:59:06,840 --> 01:59:10,640
Speaker 4: Kenny Minshe or CJ. Carr, has really never played in

2684
01:59:10,680 --> 01:59:14,040
Speaker 4: college football. Like, I think that's going to be pretty rare.

2685
01:59:14,120 --> 01:59:16,120
Speaker 4: I think you're going, I mean, people are just going

2686
01:59:16,200 --> 01:59:20,760
Speaker 4: to live in the portal era. And it's not like

2687
01:59:20,800 --> 01:59:24,240
Speaker 4: I mean, CJ. Carr was somewhat highly ranked, but Minshi

2688
01:59:24,320 --> 01:59:28,320
Speaker 4: was definitely not like this decorated five stars. So but yeah,

2689
01:59:28,400 --> 01:59:30,920
Speaker 4: I love their defense, love their running backs, best running

2690
01:59:30,920 --> 01:59:32,280
Speaker 4: back group in the entire college football.

2691
01:59:32,280 --> 01:59:34,440
Speaker 1: And we'll talk more about college football than the next

2692
01:59:34,440 --> 01:59:36,560
Speaker 1: week or two as well. Check out what's going on

2693
01:59:36,560 --> 01:59:39,720
Speaker 1: down in Bloomington. Also, coach it hasn't coached. He tells you, no,

2694
01:59:40,120 --> 01:59:41,680
Speaker 1: he hasn't coached since lsu.

2695
01:59:44,680 --> 01:59:44,840
Speaker 5: Ya.

2696
01:59:45,320 --> 01:59:46,320
Speaker 1: But I was going to point.

2697
01:59:46,160 --> 01:59:48,240
Speaker 4: Out that was the pregame speech before the National.

2698

Speaker 1: Tests right there, and checking the AP top twenty five,

2699
01:59:51,080 --> 01:59:53,960

2700
01:59:54,320 --> 01:59:58,720
Speaker 1: Indiana is number twenty, Illinois in there at number twelve,

2701
01:59:58,920 --> 02:00:00,000
Speaker 1: James number two.

2702
02:00:00,840 --> 02:00:02,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, are you gonna be going down in the rankings

2703
02:00:02,800 --> 02:00:04,520
Speaker 2: when they lose to Illinois.

2704
02:00:05,240 --> 02:00:07,440
Speaker 1: That's a big game for the Big Ten, don't you think.

2705
02:00:07,800 --> 02:00:09,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a big game for IU and the big

2706
02:00:09,840 --> 02:00:11,360
Speaker 2: loss coming for them too.

2707
02:00:11,120 --> 02:00:13,080
Speaker 4: It's a huge game for Illinois.

2708
02:00:13,320 --> 02:00:18,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it'll be a huge Windn't believe that Indiana

2709
02:00:18,040 --> 02:00:20,440
Speaker 3: after their tune up games to get ready for you guys.

2710
02:00:20,200 --> 02:00:22,000
Speaker 2: Mind you, I can't naven a player on Illinois team

2711
02:00:22,040 --> 02:00:23,920
Speaker 2: right now, but I'll change that within the next week

2712
02:00:24,000 --> 02:00:24,280
Speaker 2: or so.

2713
02:00:24,800 --> 02:00:27,240
Speaker 1: But you got You've got the degree certificate from Yeah,

2714
02:00:27,240 --> 02:00:27,640
Speaker 1: I got the.

2715
02:00:27,600 --> 02:00:29,640
Speaker 3: Degree and I got the dead as well. So I

2716
02:00:29,680 --> 02:00:30,360
Speaker 3: am tied today.

2717
02:00:30,840 --> 02:00:34,280
Speaker 1: Indiana's gonna go in off of impressive performances. I'm sure

2718
02:00:34,280 --> 02:00:36,800
Speaker 1: against old dominion Kennesas State and Indiana State.

2719
02:00:38,000 --> 02:00:40,080
Speaker 4: What do you guys care about? You care more Belichick

2720
02:00:40,120 --> 02:00:42,680
Speaker 4: college football? You care more about arch Manning college football?

2721
02:00:42,840 --> 02:00:46,240
Speaker 4: Any storyline that you Indiana doing.

2722
02:00:47,000 --> 02:00:49,600
Speaker 1: How many people in Indianapolis are just gonna be salivating

2723
02:00:49,600 --> 02:00:52,120
Speaker 1: if arch Manning justus.

2724
02:00:52,160 --> 02:00:54,680
Speaker 4: Also, the question is arch Maning gonna come out?

2725
02:00:54,880 --> 02:00:56,760
Speaker 1: He says to me, going back, he says he's going

2726
02:00:56,840 --> 02:00:57,160
Speaker 1: to stay.

2727
02:00:57,320 --> 02:00:59,880
Speaker 2: Well, I think it was like his father came out

2728
02:00:59,880 --> 02:01:02,320
Speaker 2: and they had like that one some kind of magazine

2729
02:01:02,720 --> 02:01:04,800
Speaker 2: profile he did where he said he will not be

2730
02:01:04,960 --> 02:01:06,760
Speaker 2: entering the draft after this year. But I am intrigued

2731
02:01:06,760 --> 02:01:10,120
Speaker 2: by Arch Manning just because the name, the pressure, the

2732
02:01:10,160 --> 02:01:12,720
Speaker 2: stage you're on, like you're at a university where you're

2733
02:01:12,720 --> 02:01:16,240
Speaker 2: expected to win and so and he's good. I mean

2734
02:01:16,280 --> 02:01:18,080
Speaker 2: sometimes you get the last name not as good as

2735
02:01:18,080 --> 02:01:19,880
Speaker 2: their father was or their uncle was or whatever.

2736
02:01:19,960 --> 02:01:23,080
Speaker 3: But he was a highly rated player. He's a starter.

2737
02:01:23,200 --> 02:01:25,000
Speaker 2: Now he's keep you one at Texas, which means you're

2738
02:01:25,000 --> 02:01:27,440
Speaker 2: big man on campus and will you be able to produce?

2739
02:01:27,600 --> 02:01:30,440
Speaker 1: That's a good point, Kevin. Can you imagine more pressure

2740
02:01:30,480 --> 02:01:33,400
Speaker 1: on a young man's shoulders than not only being a

2741
02:01:33,440 --> 02:01:35,680
Speaker 1: starter for the first time, full time starter for the

2742
02:01:35,680 --> 02:01:39,160
Speaker 1: first time, and your team is preseason number one and

2743
02:01:39,240 --> 02:01:40,360
Speaker 1: your last name is Manning.

2744
02:01:40,440 --> 02:01:43,839
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean until his cousin Marshall cracks college football,

2745
02:01:43,880 --> 02:01:46,880
Speaker 4: it'll probably be the most pressure that's on him. Yeah.

2746
02:01:46,920 --> 02:01:49,280
Speaker 4: Can you imagine, like Marshall Manning suiting enough for Tennessee

2747
02:01:50,360 --> 02:01:51,560
Speaker 4: in five years, six year?

2748
02:01:51,840 --> 02:01:53,520
Speaker 3: It's a lot of pressure. Honestly.

2749
02:01:53,560 --> 02:01:55,840
Speaker 2: The only one probably compared to is maybe Brian James,

2750
02:01:55,840 --> 02:01:59,000
Speaker 2: but again he wasn't to that level of player in

2751
02:01:59,040 --> 02:02:00,520
Speaker 2: college right now.

2752
02:02:00,560 --> 02:02:02,400
Speaker 4: You know, we talked about Charlie Woods a few weeks ago,

2753
02:02:02,440 --> 02:02:04,760
Speaker 4: Tiger's son, Like I don't think Charlie. Charlie Woods is

2754
02:02:04,800 --> 02:02:07,000
Speaker 4: not at the Arch Manning level. If I had have compared,

2755
02:02:07,280 --> 02:02:10,320
Speaker 4: I think Charlie Woods is you know, certainly whatever, top

2756
02:02:10,320 --> 02:02:12,200
Speaker 4: one hundred recruit.

2757
02:02:12,320 --> 02:02:14,320
Speaker 2: But you can't gimmick your way into being the number

2758
02:02:14,360 --> 02:02:15,720
Speaker 2: one quarterback for Texas.

2759
02:02:15,800 --> 02:02:17,280
Speaker 3: No, No, you gotta be able to play.

2760
02:02:17,480 --> 02:02:19,920
Speaker 4: No, And you know what credit I mean, archers really

2761
02:02:19,960 --> 02:02:22,040

02:04:22,680 --> 02:04:24,400
Speaker 1: Of course, the big news here today is we've been

2808
02:04:24,440 --> 02:04:27,480
Speaker 1: talking about all morning long. What will Shane Stiken have

2809
02:04:27,600 --> 02:04:30,560
Speaker 1: to say on the quarterback situation. I'm sure he'll be

2810
02:04:30,560 --> 02:04:33,320
Speaker 1: asked a question or two about zab and Howard. What

2811
02:04:33,360 --> 02:04:35,720
Speaker 1: are some of the other things you're interested in hearing

2812
02:04:35,760 --> 02:04:36,680
Speaker 1: other than quarterback?

2813
02:04:36,760 --> 02:04:39,720
Speaker 2: James, I was gonna say, probably nothing other than the quarterback.

2814
02:04:40,200 --> 02:04:43,520
Speaker 2: Let me start there with the passer, but in all seriousness,

2815
02:04:43,560 --> 02:04:46,200
Speaker 2: probably just what's the plan, you know, when it comes

2816
02:04:46,200 --> 02:04:48,080
Speaker 2: to fifty three man roster, when you got so many

2817
02:04:48,080 --> 02:04:51,080
Speaker 2: guys who are going ir or banged up, just a

2818
02:04:51,080 --> 02:04:53,680
Speaker 2: little bit more clarity on what you might think you

2819
02:04:53,840 --> 02:04:56,520
Speaker 2: have to do to just prepare yourself not only for

2820
02:04:56,560 --> 02:04:58,560
Speaker 2: week one, but beyond week one, because you've got a

2821
02:04:58,600 --> 02:05:00,320
Speaker 2: few guys who were going to depend on would thinking

2822
02:05:00,440 --> 02:05:02,800
Speaker 2: justin Walling and Hunter Woller, the rookie is now being

2823
02:05:02,800 --> 02:05:04,400
Speaker 2: out for the season, and what does that mean for

2824
02:05:04,440 --> 02:05:05,480
Speaker 2: the rest of your group.

2825
02:05:05,480 --> 02:05:08,080
Speaker 1: Any other position battles that you're interested in getting information

2826
02:05:08,160 --> 02:05:08,920
Speaker 1: on from him today?

2827
02:05:09,000 --> 02:05:11,560
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, honestly attendants at practice, So probably be

2828
02:05:11,600 --> 02:05:14,600
Speaker 4: something to James's point. I know the press conference will

2829
02:05:14,600 --> 02:05:17,040
Speaker 4: be dominated by other headlines, but you know there still

2830
02:05:17,120 --> 02:05:21,440
Speaker 4: is eleven twelve names injury wise that can impact roster cuts,

2831
02:05:21,480 --> 02:05:23,360
Speaker 4: or not only impact roster cuts, but could be huge

2832
02:05:23,360 --> 02:05:28,320
Speaker 4: for week one. So exactly how that situation plays out

2833
02:05:28,360 --> 02:05:30,960
Speaker 4: with both sides of the ball. Probably a handful of

2834
02:05:30,960 --> 02:05:33,480
Speaker 4: guys on each that are dealing with current injuries.

2835
02:05:34,080 --> 02:05:37,560

2839
02:05:43,360 --> 02:05:45,920
Speaker 5: first one to respond with Kansas state, which is the

2840
02:05:45,920 --> 02:05:52,080
Speaker 5: correct answer. Kansas State takes on Iowa State noon bias here, No,

2841

2846
02:06:05,520 --> 02:06:08,880
Speaker 1: quarterback situation. Maybe we'll hear an update on Sophie Cunningham's

2847
