And there are 2 00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:07,600 Speaker 1: a lot of great things about this Friday, the first 3 00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:13,680 Speaker 1: being that it's Friday. Right by the way, is my 4 00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:14,720 Speaker 1: mic going out there? 5 00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:16,200 Speaker 2: Yeah? I heard that too? 6 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:17,560 Speaker 1: Or is that my headset? 7 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:19,640 Speaker 2: I'm not sure because I heard it in my headphones. 8 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:23,479 Speaker 1: Okay, so it's we both have the Craco headsets. Is 9 00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:25,320 Speaker 1: that it is that? What's happening? 10 00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:26,720 Speaker 2: I'm not sure what happened there? 11 00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:31,520 Speaker 3: Okay, I'll talk more quietly. Wha wait, whoa? Maybe I 12 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:35,280 Speaker 3: should move microphones? What do you think I'm not sure. Okay, 13 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:37,080 Speaker 3: well I'll just keep it right here. 14 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:44,040 Speaker 1: How's that. So here's what's fabulous about this Friday. It's 15 00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 1: a literally this is like a rejoice Friday. Right. We 16 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,879 Speaker 1: have our sister station Praise. Tina Cosby was just down 17 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 1: the hall. I just are we're rejoicing on this fan Friday. 18 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 1: Not just because and I didn't know this, but our 19 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 1: chipmunk now playing with aluminum wiring, right, our chipmunk that 20 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:08,399 Speaker 1: runs things, playing with a little aluminum wiring and tinkering 21 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 1: with the electronics of the microphone. But it is a 22 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:19,679 Speaker 1: Friday going into the National Championship game. Okay, it is 23 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:23,040 Speaker 1: the Friday with Indie or the Pacers playing a home game, 24 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,320 Speaker 1: which I realized the Pacers are down, but you know, 25 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 1: it's fun to go downtown and feel the energy of it. 26 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 1: But also, Eddie, here is the way that my two 27 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 1: things that hit me last night, about three forty eight 28 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: in the morning, I'm staring at the ceiling and a 29 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 1: couple of brain droppings come my way. Thank you. First one, 30 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,760 Speaker 1: how many days are in January? 31 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 2: Thirty or thirty one? 32 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: I always want to get It's thirty one, right. It's 33 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: the longest, most drawn out, awful month of the year, indisputably. Now, 34 00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 1: I apologize if your birthdays in January, and I certainly 35 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 1: know that we have. You know, Monday is going to 36 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 1: be a holiday federally speaking, understandably and rightly so for 37 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: doctor King. I mean, there are great things to celebrate 38 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: in January. The NFL playoffs are fun, the College football 39 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 1: National Championship. It goes without saying. But it's just this long, 40 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 1: drab month, and because you're coming off the holidays, it 41 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 1: feels like forever before you're back on the treadmill. We 42 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,960 Speaker 1: are now officially halfway through January. Do I need to 43 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 1: change seats here ready, you got me to change seats. 44 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,919 Speaker 2: Jake's going to change microphones. I gotta forgot which one 45 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 2: that is, so, Jakie, if you want to talk silent? 46 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: There we go this live check check check. How's that? Check? One? Two? One? Two? 47 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:43,079 Speaker 2: Sounds good? 48 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: This okay? This is live radio as we know it. Folks, 49 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,919 Speaker 1: check one too. So anyway, halfway through January and Monday night, 50 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 1: I can't going back to the other one, Eddie went 51 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: back to the other one. You know, we should have 52 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 1: had a meeting about this, right, what do you think 53 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 1: like now is it going to be? Maybe I should 54 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:06,399 Speaker 1: have come in at ten thirty and done a little 55 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: check one two championship game Monday night, Indiana and of 56 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 1: course the Miami Hurricanes and whoever would have guessed it. 57 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 1: It is obviously of great surprise in terms of two 58 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 1: years ago that Indiana's in the national Championship game. But 59 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: as I was sitting there last night thinking about the 60 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 1: fact that we're celebrating the fact that more than halfway 61 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 1: through January and we are praising the fact that Indiana's 62 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 1: in the National Championship game, and then my brain started 63 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: wandering through statistics as I do. Right and as I 64 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: was walking through the statistics of this game, it dawned 65 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: on me what a golden era were in for Indiana sports, 66 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: and I laid it out yesterday. I mean, it has 67 00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: been unreal in the last year. And yes, there have 68 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 1: been so many disappointments, and there has been a lot 69 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: of heartache, for sure, But even with the disappointment of 70 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: what happened with the Pacers, even with the disappointment of 71 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: some of the years for the Colts and et cetera, 72 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 1: and the ongoing struggle there, the fact that seemingly each 73 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,559 Speaker 1: team or school in this area has had their turn 74 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 1: at the wheel is impressive and exciting. And I began 75 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 1: to think about since twenty eleven, and then I started 76 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: going through in my mind and it dawned on me 77 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 1: that since twenty eleven when Butler went to the Final 78 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: four and had that just kind of mud slog game 79 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:49,479 Speaker 1: against Connecticut, since that time, between football and basketball, there 80 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 1: are four universities in the state of Indiana that have 81 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:55,799 Speaker 1: competed for a national championship. In the title game, Indiana 82 00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: will be the fourth. Obviously on Monday night, Butler and 83 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 1: men's basket ball, you have Notre Dame in football obviously, 84 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:08,359 Speaker 1: and then perdue obviously in men's basketball. In a fifteen 85 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 1: year stretch, four different universities from the state of Indiana 86 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:15,599 Speaker 1: have advanced to the championship game of the two biggest 87 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,599 Speaker 1: sports in men's sports. Now, the question I would have 88 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: for those of you would be what state is the 89 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: only other with four? It is pretty amazing to think 90 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 1: that of all fifty states, only two school only two 91 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: states can make this claim. What is the other state 92 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 1: that has four? And it is Texas. And the unbelievable 93 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 1: factoid about that is that when you think about the 94 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:50,160 Speaker 1: fact that Texas has four representations are Texas Tech and basketball, 95 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 1: Baylor in basketball, which was one in Indiana while being 96 00:05:54,040 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 1: coached by Hoosier TCU in football, and Houston in basketball. 97 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:09,359 Speaker 1: So the point being, it is crazy to think that 98 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 1: in that statistic Indiana basketball and Texas football, which are 99 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 1: two probably of the most prominent programs of historic ones 100 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:21,040 Speaker 1: excluding Notre Dame football and those variations, and neither one 101 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: of them are part of that equation. And it is 102 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 1: still surreal to think that Indiana is going to play 103 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: for it. But I do believe that in the Indie 104 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: Star today has a really good column about the depths 105 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 1: of NIL, and that sounds bad, the depths of nil, 106 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 1: like it's a bad thing. I don't mean that the 107 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 1: intricacies of the NIL, and I know that I have 108 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:51,479 Speaker 1: made a lot about this, but the reality is that 109 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 1: innil is a huge part of what we're seeing. And 110 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,160 Speaker 1: I got to thinking about this last night in terms 111 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 1: of the longevity of this or the sustainability of it, 112 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 1: and where this goes in terms of the direction or 113 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: the trajectory of college athletics. And I've had this feeling 114 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: for the last couple of months that it feels like 115 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 1: college basketball and the enthusiasm for college basketball and the 116 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 1: rabid nature of it is on like a weird, slight decline, 117 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 1: and yet football is on this meteoric rise. And that's 118 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 1: when it hit me. And that's where Indiana hit the 119 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 1: lottery twice. They hit the lottery twice, they hit the 120 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: lottery once because they went out and hired Kurt Signetti 121 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 1: and had this vision of needing to focus with football 122 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 1: and with the NIL and being ahead of the curve 123 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: in the way that they allocate and distribute their money 124 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: for name, image and likeness and use that to their 125 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 1: advantage to build their roster to the point that Kurt 126 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: Signetti wants the roster built or the way in which 127 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 1: he wants it built. But Indiana has always been at 128 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: basketball school. Kansas has always been a basketball school. Kentucky 129 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: has always been a basketball school. But unlike Kansas and Kentucky, 130 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:31,680 Speaker 1: Indiana saw and had the vision Scott Dolson, Pam Witten, 131 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: and then when they hired Kurt Signetti collectively they had 132 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 1: the vision to say the name, image and likeness and 133 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 1: transfer portal era of college athletics favors football. So we 134 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: need to be in on that. We can sit here 135 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 1: and put all our resources at Indiana University into the 136 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 1: basketball program. But number one, not only does basketball not 137 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 1: bring the revenue that football brings, but number two and 138 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: more importantly, when it comes to the trains for portal, 139 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 1: when it comes to the era that we're living in 140 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 1: now with college athletics, it is sustainable in football. I 141 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 1: don't know that it is in basketball. And let me explain. 142 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 1: And this is where Indiana hit the lottery twice because 143 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: Indiana figured out either they figured it out or they 144 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 1: got really lucky in this regard and the fact that 145 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:25,320 Speaker 1: it's my opinion that the era that we're seeing in 146 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 1: college athletics right now may well continue to diminish the 147 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 1: enthusiasm and the monetary support of college basketball, but football 148 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 1: it will only grow it because in the game of football, 149 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 1: you have fifty plus players on your roster, but twenty 150 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 1: two regular starters unless you've got guys that play both 151 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 1: ways and that kind of thing, But for the most part, 152 00:09:55,600 --> 00:10:03,319 Speaker 1: twenty two regular starters now, Eddie, I will ask you, okay, 153 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:09,679 Speaker 1: when you think about college football, Eddie, and you think about, 154 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 1: like the Indiana roster, how many players, taking Indiana out 155 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,440 Speaker 1: of the equation, how many football players on a team 156 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 1: do people regularly know? Now, don't give me names just 157 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 1: off the top of you. If there's twenty two players 158 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 1: on offensive defense, how many do people When I say no, 159 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 1: and I don't mean like the Colts, I mean like 160 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 1: in the college aspect of it, the number of players 161 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,440 Speaker 1: between offensive defense that people are like that they would 162 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 1: recognize them and Kroger. 163 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 2: So I like to do this by position when I 164 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 2: think about it. Obviously the quarterback, the running back, probably 165 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 2: the star wide receiver or wide receivers. So there's four 166 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:50,440 Speaker 2: right there. Okay, I will more than likely go maybe 167 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,599 Speaker 2: you know one of your defensive backs because you know 168 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,839 Speaker 2: they're a playmaker or whatever. Maybe a linebacker because he's 169 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 2: always you know. 170 00:10:56,320 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 1: Already six to seven guys, right, six to seven guys, Yeah, third, yeah, third, right, yeah, six' 171 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 1: seven that's.

DePaul and they 215 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 1: seem like good players and good.

School i'm just Using indiana as an example in. 219 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: FOOTBALL i do believe, this and this is WHAT i 220 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,080 Speaker 1: think is going to be the most interesting moving. FORWARD 221 00:13:56,800 --> 00:14:00,599 Speaker 1: i think what we are seeing now Is, indiana the 222 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 1: Next alabama Is, indiana the Next, florida the next To Ohio. 223 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 1: State the REASON i say it is because we don't 224 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 1: really See alabama would be the exception, here but we 225 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 1: don't really see, longstanding long term dynasties anymore in college, 226 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 1: football AND i think the time period in which you 227 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 1: can get a dynasty to run is now even. Shortened 228 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 1: for the following, Reason Ohio, state Like alabama was winning 229 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 1: every single, year, Right Nick saban just had it, rolling 230 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 1: and Then clemson came and kind of unseated, him and 231 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 1: Suddenly clemson was the it's. School and it was, like 232 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 1: oh my, gosh they're getting every five. Star everybody wants 233 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 1: to go To, Clemson, Clemson, Clemson. Clemson and then guys 234 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: got there and some of me, realized, well they're not 235 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 1: as good as you, thought or their attitude, sucks or 236 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: they don't like to compete for and there's already a 237 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 1: guy that's there that's a sophomore that has that. Position 238 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 1: so then you get guys, transferring and then they don't 239 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 1: get involved in the transfer portal to fill that spot 240 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 1: in the nil they get they get lagged, behind and 241 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 1: Now clemson's just kind of another good, program not great good. 242 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 1: Program Ohio, State Ohio, STATE i, Mean Ryan day gets it, 243 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 1: rolling and it's like these guys are Not they're going 244 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 1: to win the next three. Titles they got wide receivers 245 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 1: galore and all over the place that all can play On. 246 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 1: Sunday they got athletes.

Times and Where indiana 266 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 1: was ahead of everyone else and Where indiana has hit 267 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 1: the lottery again Is indiana saw this coming around the. 268 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: Bend it wasn't raining. On noah built the arc and 269 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 1: no matter what you do in, LIFE i truly believe 270 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 1: the absolute key in life isn't always about being prepared for, 271 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:04,679 Speaker 1: Today it's about being more prepared for. Tomorrow And indiana was. 272 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:10,959 Speaker 1: So when you look at college, FOOTBALL i Think indiana 273 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:15,159 Speaker 1: and they may never publicly say this this, overtly BUT 274 00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:19,640 Speaker 1: i Think indiana not only was prepared for the shift 275 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:24,920 Speaker 1: of interest within The american culture from basketball to football 276 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:29,200 Speaker 1: amongst the basketball schools and the monetary windfall that comes 277 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:34,160 Speaker 1: with football, success but they also were prepared to set 278 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 1: themselves up with a game plan with nil money and 279 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:42,359 Speaker 1: distribution of it that put them ahead of everyone else 280 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 1: because they're not playing catchup because they already had a 281 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 1: plan in. Place this isn't to say that these other 282 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: schools can't put together the same kind of like an 283 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 1: idea or a game, plan but a lot of, schools, 284 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 1: Now Oklahoma state is a good.

It But indiana thought 315 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 1: it differently and, said you know, what instead of getting 316 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 1: one or two massive donors and taking that money and 317 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: just saying here you, go what we are going to 318 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:57,520 Speaker 1: do is we are going to actually do a collective 319 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:01,439 Speaker 1: that goes with a network of a number of different 320 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: people that we are putting into accounts and holding it 321 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,159 Speaker 1: in and not spend and spending it like kind of. 322 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 1: Selectively it's way above my pay grade to understand the 323 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:17,720 Speaker 1: specifics of. It but WHEN i saw that this was 324 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 1: something that other schools were looking at and, Saying indiana 325 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:24,920 Speaker 1: was the blueprint on the way we should be doing, 326 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 1: this and that is using a network of donors to 327 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:32,959 Speaker 1: keep a more steady flow and then picking and choosing 328 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,159 Speaker 1: which years it is that we're going to spend the 329 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:38,359 Speaker 1: big instead of trying to spend big every year and 330 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 1: then every three years having to set out for three 331 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 1: or four, years which allows for again The texas text 332 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:47,359 Speaker 1: and The Old mississi and Maybe indiana will. See but 333 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 1: the Way indiana is doing, IT i don't know if 334 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:51,159 Speaker 1: What i'm saying is making, Sense but the way The 335 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 1: indiana is doing it allows for a pattern of success 336 00:20:56,320 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 1: that extends out beyond just the what it's hot in the. 337 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 1: Moment AND i think they are going to now be 338 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 1: competing against a bunch of other schools that are going 339 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:10,199 Speaker 1: to be the hot in the moment, school and the 340 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 1: hot in the moment school is cool for that roster 341 00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 1: that you're able to, accumulate but as soon as that 342 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:20,439 Speaker 1: roster fizzles, out then you now have at An indiana 343 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 1: a long standing record of success where players not only 344 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 1: For innio, money but also we're going to say IF 345 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,879 Speaker 1: i go To, Indiana i'm gonna. Win i'm going to 346 00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 1: compete for a national, championship and they've got An io, 347 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,639 Speaker 1: money whereas you go to An old miss or A Texas, 348 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 1: tech and those are great. Programs don't get me, Wrong 349 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,880 Speaker 1: i'm just using them as an. Example but if their 350 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 1: money is more like the Dal, jones their donation is 351 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:46,200 Speaker 1: more like the Dal. Jones super fat for this, year 352 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 1: little thin this, year super fat in two, years then 353 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 1: again the next. Year that means that their productivity is 354 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,359 Speaker 1: going to be the, same and it's going to be 355 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 1: less likely that players are willing to go, in buy 356 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 1: in and put their name, there everything on the line for. 357 00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 1: That AND i just think That indiana was really. Smart 358 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 1: AND i think that we can sit here In, papoo 359 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 1: AND i certainly understand why people.

With. 451 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 2: Correct i'm not, WELL i wouldn't say never say, never 452 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 2: BUT i would assume that he could be one they 453 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:42,120 Speaker 2: would because of the. Contract like if there's a player 454 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:44,360 Speaker 2: out there that they're trying to get that may pair 455 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:47,359 Speaker 2: well With, giannis they may Use turner's contract as you, 456 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 2: know a chip to get that. Player there's been a 457 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,920 Speaker 2: lot of speculation on whether they would go After Zach, 458 00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 2: levine like that's a player That i've seen tied to 459 00:27:57,320 --> 00:27:59,440 Speaker 2: them erutinely. 460 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:02,160 Speaker 1: They, have, though keep in, Mind, milwaukee you know What's 461 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:06,440 Speaker 1: milwaukee's cap flexibility, here they bought Out Damian. Lillard. Yep 462 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 1: they took On Miles turner at a huge, amount, right 463 00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 1: And yannis has a huge. SET i, mean wasn't the 464 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:20,360 Speaker 1: narrative or the understanding amongst people essentially that when they 465 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,960 Speaker 1: made the move For Miles turner that that assent That 466 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,560 Speaker 1: milwaukee was in a situation then where they were basically 467 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 1: handcuffed for the next like five. 468 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 2: Years, yeah depending on you, KNOW i think specifically with 469 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 2: the signing of a free, agent Potentially jake L Kyle 470 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 2: kuzma is another chip that will probably have to be 471 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 2: moved For milwaukee if they make a. Deal he's making 472 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 2: twenty two million this year and then twenty million next, 473 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 2: year and of course in THE nba you have to salary, 474 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 2: match and there's not a ton of other. Guys Bobby, 475 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 2: PORTIS i don't know what his contract number. Is that's 476 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 2: a guy that would probably have to be, moved despite 477 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 2: the fact THAT i Know milwaukee fans really Like bobby 478 00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 2: Port is in what he brings on a night tonight. 479 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:02,480 Speaker 2: Basis he's making thirteen million this, year fourteen and a 480 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,240 Speaker 2: half next.

Nba but to go back to WHAT i 563 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:41,960 Speaker 1: mentioned the other, Day Ben matheren is, rum which is really. 564 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:47,160 Speaker 1: Good and if you're making you, know a pina colada 565 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 1: or different beverages that include rum is really. Good you 566 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:53,760 Speaker 1: can even have it isolated on the. Rocks And Ben 567 00:33:53,800 --> 00:34:00,240 Speaker 1: matheren is. Rum but the pacers are A. Manhattan they 568 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 1: require different ingredients that don't include. Rum and when you 569 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:06,960 Speaker 1: go to the bar and they can't make A manhattan 570 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:08,759 Speaker 1: because they're out of something that, night and you've just 571 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 1: got to settle for rum on the, rocks it's pretty. 572 00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:12,719 Speaker 1: Good he had a problem with, it but you're, LIKE 573 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:13,960 Speaker 1: i don't, KNOW i want to do this every. NIGHT 574 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:15,879 Speaker 1: i like to go back to My. Manhattan a lot 575 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 1: more ingredients in The. Manhattan but when they work well, 576 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:24,880 Speaker 1: together it's really. Good And ben matherin just last, year 577 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:28,840 Speaker 1: we saw it in THE Nba. Finals they had a 578 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 1: game That Ben matheren won for. Them he got to the, 579 00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:35,399 Speaker 1: line he was. Aggressive the way that they were running things, 580 00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 1: offensively the fluidity with which they move was not working. 581 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:42,879 Speaker 1: Well so they went To Ben matheren and, said put 582 00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:45,040 Speaker 1: the nose, down be the get the hell out of 583 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 1: the way guy and get to the. Basket and now 584 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 1: he's not a great finisher on getting fouled going to the, 585 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:58,239 Speaker 1: basket but he gets himself to the, line and that 586 00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 1: was to their advantage for a game last year in 587 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:03,759 Speaker 1: THE Nba finals that he won. Them he literally won 588 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 1: them a. Game and then the next game he was 589 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:11,440 Speaker 1: a huge part of their collapse because he came, in 590 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:14,120 Speaker 1: he had two off ball, fouls he missed four free, 591 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 1: throws and it was, like what just? Happened yin And? 592 00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:21,760 Speaker 1: Yang AND i like, him But i've been saying forever 593 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:29,360 Speaker 1: that it feels. Inevitable it feels inevitable that his fate 594 00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 1: was going to be that some team was going to get, 595 00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:37,480 Speaker 1: him overpay, him and he's going to become a twenty 596 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:42,239 Speaker 1: twenty five. Guy and there is no greater team than 597 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:45,759 Speaker 1: The New Orleans pelicans for that, candidacy BECAUSE i could 598 00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 1: totally see The pelicans Saying mathern is a guy that 599 00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:52,440 Speaker 1: we're going to give a bunch of money. To and 600 00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 1: then it's Like Solomon. Hill who was it was it 601 00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:59,880 Speaker 1: The pelicans that Signed Solomon. Hill, yes he had a 602 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:04,279 Speaker 1: great playoff against The. Raptors he was very good, defensively 603 00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,960 Speaker 1: he hit some big, shots and then The pacers lose 604 00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 1: him in free agency and The pelicans way overpaid For Solomon. 605 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:15,120 Speaker 1: Hill That mathern is a better player Than Solomon. Hill 606 00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:19,760 Speaker 1: but it does feel like there is no question about 607 00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:22,600 Speaker 1: the fact that If Ben matheram were to become A 608 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:25,640 Speaker 1: New Orleans, pelican he is a twenty twenty five guy 609 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 1: through and.

This Daniel jones is the only on 718 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:23,400 Speaker 1: the roster that has no immediately obvious fill.

Immediate and number THREE i don't know that 723 00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:48,160 Speaker 1: The colts would want to go that. Route, honestly it 724 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:52,920 Speaker 1: feels that way to. Me But Daniel jones is clearly 725 00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:55,000 Speaker 1: your number. One now after, THAT i do Like Nick 726 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:58,520 Speaker 1: cross a lot And Alec pierce is a wonderful player 727 00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:05,360 Speaker 1: that has really. Emerged AND i think that we get 728 00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:08,799 Speaker 1: caught up in sport with players and you fall in 729 00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:11,520 Speaker 1: love with the thought of, it or you get terrified 730 00:44:11,520 --> 00:44:13,120 Speaker 1: of the thought of them, leaving and you're, like we 731 00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:14,440 Speaker 1: have to get, them we got to do whatever it, 732 00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:15,960 Speaker 1: takes got to do whatever it, takes got to do 733 00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:20,520 Speaker 1: whatever it. Takes And Alec pearce is really important for 734 00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:23,680 Speaker 1: them and has really emerged and is do every flower 735 00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:26,319 Speaker 1: he's going to. Get but at the same, time if 736 00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:28,400 Speaker 1: some other team comes and just blows you out of the, 737 00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:30,880 Speaker 1: water do you have to be careful because you have 738 00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:33,400 Speaker 1: other Players you don't realize, It but The colts have 739 00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:37,520 Speaker 1: a lot of players that you know you're going to 740 00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:39,279 Speaker 1: have to replace or, move you, Know so maybe some 741 00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:40,759 Speaker 1: of that comes off the book in the next couple 742 00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 1: of years and they can get creative with. It AND 743 00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:46,000 Speaker 1: i Think pierce is going to be one that re 744 00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:49,200 Speaker 1: signs here pretty. Quickly BUT i can't remember the exact, 745 00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:53,960 Speaker 1: words But Chris paler was asked about like cap space. 746 00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:56,680 Speaker 2: And relief or. Whatever he made some small comment, about, 747 00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:58,600 Speaker 2: YEAH i think we'll be, Okay we'll be, okay and 748 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:00,839 Speaker 2: cappin like right, now if you look at, it they 749 00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 2: wouldn't have money to sign anybody outside Of Alec pearce 750 00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:06,640 Speaker 2: And Daniel. Jones so that automatically makes me think That 751 00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:11,360 Speaker 2: Michael Pittman juniors probably played either his last step or 752 00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:13,040 Speaker 2: he's going to be released and then brought back on 753 00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:14,080 Speaker 2: a much cheaper. 754 00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 1: Deal, Correct But pittman, junior and he only becomes, if for, 755 00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:20,640 Speaker 1: example he was outright released or. Whatever he becomes more. 756 00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:25,480 Speaker 1: Expended his expendability or the necessity to have him and 757 00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:28,680 Speaker 1: overpay that contract is dependent upon what happens With Alec. Pierce, 758 00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:30,319 Speaker 1: RIGHT i. 759 00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:34,279 Speaker 2: Don't probably, Yes but at the same, Time, jake right, 760 00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:38,160 Speaker 2: now as we sit here today On january, sixteenth or 761 00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:41,200 Speaker 2: twelve fifty six and The drive people dot com, studio 762 00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:43,680 Speaker 2: he is your highest paid player for next. 763 00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:45,840 Speaker 1: Season, NO i, Understand. 764 00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:48,440 Speaker 2: And could you if you made a list of the 765 00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:51,080 Speaker 2: top ten players on the team from twenty twenty five 766 00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:53,799 Speaker 2: to twenty twenty, Six he's not even in your top. 767 00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:55,919 Speaker 1: Ten totally. Agree but What i'm saying is If Alec 768 00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:59,839 Speaker 1: pierce decides to take a huge financial windfall From era 769 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:03,200 Speaker 1: ZON a insert name of, team Then pittman, beat then 770 00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:06,759 Speaker 1: his value does tick back.

Retired are you doing next year 815 00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:01,440 Speaker 2: or are we done after this? 816 00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:02,880 Speaker 1: Year we are? 817 00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:05,719 Speaker 5: Done Like philip rivers into the, Sunset max bow and 818 00:48:06,440 --> 00:48:07,160 Speaker 5: migrates into the. 819 00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:11,879 Speaker 1: Sunset, okay all, Right so the question is, This we'll 820 00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:14,160 Speaker 1: begin with what we were just talking. About if The 821 00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:16,840 Speaker 1: Max bow AND nfl picks have just had their last 822 00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:20,279 Speaker 1: season In, indianapolis does that have them having anything in 823 00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:21,320 Speaker 1: common With Michael Bittman. 824 00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:28,000 Speaker 5: Jr good, QUESTION I i think at twenty nine million 825 00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:32,000 Speaker 5: dollars cap. Hit then, no like that can't. HAPPEN i 826 00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:35,279 Speaker 5: also Think Michael Simon. Jr still is a you, know 827 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:38,359 Speaker 5: solid football, player and if you were to let him, 828 00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:42,680 Speaker 5: go then you create another need for. You you, know 829 00:48:42,719 --> 00:48:44,600 Speaker 5: part of me, thinks AND i know it's delicate when 830 00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:46,800 Speaker 5: you talk about wide, receivers specifically their. Divas you, know 831 00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:49,680 Speaker 5: part of me, Thinks Michael Dimon junior kind of, understands you, 832 00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:52,680 Speaker 5: know where he's at from a value standpoint and realizes 833 00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:53,760 Speaker 5: twenty nine million dollar. 834 00:48:53,680 --> 00:48:54,680 Speaker 1: Capet is a bit. 835 00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:58,720 Speaker 5: Unfair so, again could you work something out along those. 836 00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:02,359 Speaker 5: Lines Maybe wish will think. Game but, Yeah Michael Pittman. 837 00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:04,080 Speaker 5: Jr at that, cat that number cannot. 838 00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:08,640 Speaker 1: Happen, yeah and that's The and, again Now kevin spelled 839 00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:11,359 Speaker 1: this out for. Me i'm going to show my complete ignorance. Here, 840 00:49:11,520 --> 00:49:17,279 Speaker 1: okay the what is the time frame in terms, of 841 00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:21,440 Speaker 1: in other, Words Michael Pittman junior and the necessity to 842 00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:24,920 Speaker 1: have him in whether you restructure whatever it may. Be 843 00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:28,720 Speaker 1: but the necessity Of Michael Pittman junior on the roster 844 00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:32,720 Speaker 1: is largely based upon Especially Alec pierce and whether you retain, 845 00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:36,000 Speaker 1: him because if you Lose Alec, pierce Then Pittman. Jr 846 00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:38,360 Speaker 1: becomes obviously that much more important to make sure that 847 00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:43,399 Speaker 1: you have something. There what is the timeline on how 848 00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:46,080 Speaker 1: that would work? Out in other, words is it is 849 00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:51,160 Speaker 1: it such that they are afforded the ability to know 850 00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:53,480 Speaker 1: Whether pierce is in or out before they make a 851 00:49:53,480 --> 00:49:54,320 Speaker 1: decision On. Pittman. 852 00:49:55,840 --> 00:49:58,480 Speaker 5: Yeah SO i think With pierce kind of the big, 853 00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:01,520 Speaker 5: day he'll be watched two weeks before or two weeks 854 00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:04,720 Speaker 5: supporting free. Agency actually it might be three weeks sometimes 855 00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:06,800 Speaker 5: in Late, february the franchise tag window. 856 00:50:06,960 --> 00:50:08,680 Speaker 1: Opens it's a fourteen. 857 00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:10,759 Speaker 5: Day period that it's. Open and you, know last year 858 00:50:10,800 --> 00:50:12,320 Speaker 5: The colts or two years, AGO i should, say The 859 00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:16,080 Speaker 5: colts Tag Michael Piman. Jr late in that. Window they 860 00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:18,680 Speaker 5: then got a long term deal done with them before 861 00:50:18,719 --> 00:50:22,000 Speaker 5: the new league year. Opened but that IS i think 862 00:50:22,120 --> 00:50:24,719 Speaker 5: kind of the timeline For. Pierce do you franchise tag 863 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:27,759 Speaker 5: him in that two year two week, window then you, 864 00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:29,440 Speaker 5: know do you get a deal done with him before 865 00:50:29,480 --> 00:50:31,680 Speaker 5: the start of the new league. YEAR i believe you 866 00:50:31,719 --> 00:50:34,920 Speaker 5: have Until july to get that. Done it's not like 867 00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:38,120 Speaker 5: there's the urgency to get it, done but you, know 868 00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:40,320 Speaker 5: Mid MARCH i want to say it's the twelve thirteen 869 00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:43,960 Speaker 5: something like that is when free agency eventually, begins the 870 00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:47,000 Speaker 5: new league year officially. Begins that's WHEN i think you 871 00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:51,080 Speaker 5: would see again potentially A pierce, tag A pierce long term, 872 00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:54,840 Speaker 5: contract obviously The Daniel jones, situation and then you, know 873 00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:57,840 Speaker 5: do you Restructure Michael Piman. Jr to then have a 874 00:50:57,880 --> 00:51:00,600 Speaker 5: little bit more from a fun standpoint of it to 875 00:51:00,719 --> 00:51:02,360 Speaker 5: you as free agency. 876 00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:06,920 Speaker 1: Begins by the, Way, KEVIN i hate to be the 877 00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:10,520 Speaker 1: bearer of bad news to you, here but AND i 878 00:51:10,520 --> 00:51:12,600 Speaker 1: don't know if this is the case in the morning or. Not, 879 00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:16,160 Speaker 1: occasionally not all the, time but occasionally with a little 880 00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:19,880 Speaker 1: more frequency, Lately, uh the guest line sometimes sounds like 881 00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:22,440 Speaker 1: the helium that the chipmunk has gotten into the helium. 882 00:51:22,480 --> 00:51:25,040 Speaker 1: Tank and you sound a little like the kids from 883 00:51:25,040 --> 00:51:26,560 Speaker 1: The Gummy bears. Commercial you cool with? 884 00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:31,120 Speaker 5: THAT i am very cool with. That my kids are 885 00:51:31,160 --> 00:51:34,920 Speaker 5: Big Gummy bear, Fans so SURE i sound Like alvin 886 00:51:35,120 --> 00:51:35,440 Speaker 5: from The. 887 00:51:35,440 --> 00:51:41,560 Speaker 1: Shipmunk it starts to, go it starts to add in that, 888 00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:44,239 Speaker 1: direction and then and then you go back to your 889 00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:47,799 Speaker 1: normal dulcet. Tones so we'll see, here, RIGHT i, mean 890 00:51:47,840 --> 00:51:53,600 Speaker 1: that's that's the fun of this shoe carnival broadcast, sometimes, 891 00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:58,520 Speaker 1: right you just spin the wheel and take your. Chance. Exactly, 892 00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:02,839 Speaker 1: Okay So, kevin let's go back to you were talking 893 00:52:02,880 --> 00:52:06,279 Speaker 1: About pierce And Pittman. JR a guy that is really 894 00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:08,120 Speaker 1: interesting to me for The, colts and we're going to 895 00:52:08,160 --> 00:52:09,680 Speaker 1: get INTO eu and all that in a. Second But 896 00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:13,719 Speaker 1: Nick cross is fascinating to me BECAUSE i think he 897 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:16,359 Speaker 1: has really played. Well he really grew into the role 898 00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:18,319 Speaker 1: that was asked of him when he was brought in 899 00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:20,879 Speaker 1: and drafted out Of. Maryland you, KNOW i think we, thought, 900 00:52:20,920 --> 00:52:23,719 Speaker 1: okay great, athletes still has to learn some of the. 901 00:52:23,760 --> 00:52:27,040 Speaker 1: Instincts seems like some of that came. Together you tell 902 00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:31,320 Speaker 1: me if you, disagree And i'm romanticizing what he brings 903 00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:34,440 Speaker 1: to the, table BUT i do think that he is 904 00:52:34,480 --> 00:52:38,160 Speaker 1: a player that would be great to keep. Around does 905 00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:42,040 Speaker 1: he have a lot of marketability outside or value outside 906 00:52:42,040 --> 00:52:43,880 Speaker 1: of The colts or is this kind of one of 907 00:52:43,920 --> 00:52:47,200 Speaker 1: those unique circumstances where he fits what they're doing and 908 00:52:47,239 --> 00:52:49,959 Speaker 1: so therefore probably there's not going to be a huge 909 00:52:49,960 --> 00:52:53,640 Speaker 1: price tag for him. Elsewhere, well a couple of years. 910 00:52:53,440 --> 00:52:56,320 Speaker 5: Ago With Julian, blackman he thought the safety market would 911 00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:58,600 Speaker 5: be a little bit more rope plus it was. Not 912 00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:01,880 Speaker 5: and you, know think About cross. Too he's more of a, 913 00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:04,799 Speaker 5: like close to the line of shrimmage, safety not a 914 00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:08,840 Speaker 5: deep field, safety AND i think that is something that 915 00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:11,960 Speaker 5: probably hurts him a little. Bit but STILL i can 916 00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:15,400 Speaker 5: definitely see, him you, know meriting a decent, contract AND 917 00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:17,799 Speaker 5: i think he's been a nice. Player nice is scent 918 00:53:17,880 --> 00:53:20,080 Speaker 5: here es suchally the last couple of. Years he's a 919 00:53:20,200 --> 00:53:23,680 Speaker 5: very young draft pick out Of, maryland, uh you know 920 00:53:23,719 --> 00:53:25,919 Speaker 5: back when they created into the third round to take. 921 00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:29,799 Speaker 5: Him BUT i just don't see you having the finances 922 00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:34,120 Speaker 5: to Retain cross and find them and then addressing everything 923 00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:36,640 Speaker 5: else that theoretically is on the. Table That having said, 924 00:53:36,640 --> 00:53:38,640 Speaker 5: THAT i also don't think there's a safety in the 925 00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:41,360 Speaker 5: building like unlike Bring smith at right tackle for, EXAMPLE 926 00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:45,640 Speaker 5: i don't necessarily view safety as having already made half 927 00:53:45,719 --> 00:53:48,919 Speaker 5: the torch guy, too SO i think that could Help 928 00:53:49,200 --> 00:53:51,600 Speaker 5: cross his. Cause but, yeah across From bradsmith of the, 929 00:53:51,600 --> 00:53:55,919 Speaker 5: two for, Me jacob like a good, PLAYERS i think 930 00:53:55,960 --> 00:53:58,840 Speaker 5: you would an ideal world with you, know bottomless, Money, 931 00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:01,040 Speaker 5: yes you would be able to do, that BUT i 932 00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:05,319 Speaker 5: don't necessarily think they have the means to do it 933 00:54:05,440 --> 00:54:07,280 Speaker 5: while addressing more pressing defensive. 934 00:54:07,320 --> 00:54:11,919 Speaker 1: Needs, kevin do you Believe Kevin bowen is my? Guest 935 00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:13,719 Speaker 1: he's on The Java House peel and poor guest. Line of, 936 00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:15,560 Speaker 1: course you hear him on The Fan morning show along 937 00:54:15,600 --> 00:54:19,359 Speaker 1: with Jeff rickord And James boyd each and every morning 938 00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:23,280 Speaker 1: at seven o'clock in the morning on. WEEKDAYS i should, Say, 939 00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:29,440 Speaker 1: kevin do you believe that As indiana's profile increases in 940 00:54:29,520 --> 00:54:33,840 Speaker 1: college football and now suddenly they've become the it school 941 00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:39,960 Speaker 1: for portal transfers and their high, school you, know spotlight 942 00:54:40,080 --> 00:54:42,759 Speaker 1: of high school players has gone up as, well so 943 00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:46,640 Speaker 1: the two stars nobody wanted him to come Here mac 944 00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:52,279 Speaker 1: trains for. Guys seemingly you've elevated beyond that. Area do 945 00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:55,440 Speaker 1: you believe That Kurt signetti can get the same level 946 00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:58,600 Speaker 1: of commitment and dedication from his players when he's not 947 00:54:58,760 --> 00:55:02,520 Speaker 1: having to sell THE us against the world band of misfits? Mantra. 948 00:55:04,840 --> 00:55:08,120 Speaker 5: YEAH i think that'll be a new challenge for. Him you. Know, 949 00:55:08,160 --> 00:55:11,240 Speaker 5: obviously so much of the score is still The James madison, 950 00:55:11,360 --> 00:55:14,520 Speaker 5: guys you, know AND i think the task for a, 951 00:55:14,600 --> 00:55:17,040 Speaker 5: coach Particularly, signetti will be you, know how do you 952 00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:19,840 Speaker 5: ingrain that to where it does get passed down to 953 00:55:19,840 --> 00:55:23,040 Speaker 5: the underclassmen and then you, know those guys are taking. 954 00:55:23,080 --> 00:55:27,280 Speaker 5: Over at me trying to know which players have eligibility 955 00:55:27,360 --> 00:55:30,080 Speaker 5: left it In indianas or any college for that, matter 956 00:55:30,160 --> 00:55:31,160 Speaker 5: in this day and, age it's. 957 00:55:31,120 --> 00:55:32,640 Speaker 2: Probably a lost. 958 00:55:32,680 --> 00:55:35,400 Speaker 5: Cause but you know Whatever i'm trying to think. Of you, 959 00:55:35,440 --> 00:55:38,640 Speaker 5: Know Charlie becker is. Back you, KNOW i don't Know 960 00:55:38,719 --> 00:55:40,600 Speaker 5: Homark Cooper. Jr is going to go pro or.

SEASON i want to say A Mauri ferrell 963 00:55:45,920 --> 00:55:48,600 Speaker 5: defensively is one of those.

It but fifteen years, ago twenty years, 1309 01:15:22,160 --> 01:15:24,760 Speaker 1: AGO i remember to me the breaking point and the 1310 01:15:24,800 --> 01:15:27,559 Speaker 1: tipping point was this WHEN i came into work one. 1311 01:15:27,640 --> 01:15:29,760 Speaker 1: DAY i was working AT wbc at the. TIME i 1312 01:15:29,800 --> 01:15:31,759 Speaker 1: came into work and somebody, Said, hey did you see 1313 01:15:32,000 --> 01:15:35,160 Speaker 1: The colts are selling off the urinals and part of 1314 01:15:35,160 --> 01:15:38,240 Speaker 1: the locker room from THE Rcaa.

Dome they have no, 1318 01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:52,400 Speaker 1: right no more right to sell off pieces of THE 1319 01:15:52,520 --> 01:15:55,760 Speaker 1: Rca dome than a guy living in his apartment does 1320 01:15:55,800 --> 01:16:00,479 Speaker 1: to start selling the window. Panes they're a, tenant, remember 1321 01:16:01,600 --> 01:16:04,280 Speaker 1: and when they were asked to renegotiate their, contract they 1322 01:16:04,360 --> 01:16:05,960 Speaker 1: made it very clear that everyone knew they were a. 1323 01:16:06,000 --> 01:16:11,040 Speaker 1: Tenant but In Lucas Oil, STADIUM i, know it brought 1324 01:16:11,040 --> 01:16:13,040 Speaker 1: A Super bowl To indianapolis AND i saw you two 1325 01:16:13,080 --> 01:16:15,600 Speaker 1: there and it was.

Stuff 1327 01:16:19,640 --> 01:16:25,759 Speaker 1: but at the same, TIME i think the the public 1328 01:16:25,840 --> 01:16:30,559 Speaker 1: subsidy going into, stadiums the general public now has had 1329 01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:34,640 Speaker 1: enough because there is not a show me a legitimate 1330 01:16:34,720 --> 01:16:40,919 Speaker 1: economic study of a civic area getting return on investment 1331 01:16:41,439 --> 01:16:47,840 Speaker 1: for a seven hundred million dollar tax in tax you, know, 1332 01:16:48,160 --> 01:16:51,920 Speaker 1: Loan you're not going to find. It you're. Not you 1333 01:16:52,040 --> 01:16:54,320 Speaker 1: sid here and tell me you're. Not AND i think 1334 01:16:54,360 --> 01:16:56,479 Speaker 1: people finally now have kind of woken up to that 1335 01:16:56,520 --> 01:16:59,599 Speaker 1: when they see the billionaire. Owners And i'm not speaking 1336 01:16:59,600 --> 01:17:02,920 Speaker 1: out on the, Colts i'm saying in, general the billionaire 1337 01:17:02,920 --> 01:17:06,560 Speaker 1: owners that you know always won a new stadium and 1338 01:17:06,560 --> 01:17:08,240 Speaker 1: the new ballum, whistle and it does feel like that 1339 01:17:08,320 --> 01:17:10,559 Speaker 1: water has calmed down a little. Bit but this deal 1340 01:17:10,560 --> 01:17:14,800 Speaker 1: With chicago's, interesting but THE nfl is, big and that 1341 01:17:14,880 --> 01:17:16,840 Speaker 1: means that you talk about it even in markets where 1342 01:17:16,880 --> 01:17:19,080 Speaker 1: you not are where you are, not which is what 1343 01:17:19,120 --> 01:17:22,080 Speaker 1: we're about to do. Here in terms of the games 1344 01:17:22,120 --> 01:17:24,400 Speaker 1: that are slated for this, weekend we will begin in 1345 01:17:24,479 --> 01:17:28,439 Speaker 1: THE Nfc Eddie seattle And San. Francisco to, me this 1346 01:17:28,479 --> 01:17:32,840 Speaker 1: one is incredibly easy to see what's going to happen. 1347 01:17:33,120 --> 01:17:35,760 Speaker 2: TWO i think it's pretty straightforward as. WELL i think 1348 01:17:35,760 --> 01:17:37,439 Speaker 2: it'll be a repeat of what happened towards the end 1349 01:17:37,439 --> 01:17:40,200 Speaker 2: there in the regular, season Where seattle is just going 1350 01:17:40,240 --> 01:17:45,840 Speaker 2: to have their way, defensively and the lack of available 1351 01:17:45,880 --> 01:17:48,400 Speaker 2: players For San francisco is going to show up, again 1352 01:17:49,040 --> 01:17:52,479 Speaker 2: Nor George kittle For San. FRANCISCO i think That seattle 1353 01:17:52,560 --> 01:17:55,080 Speaker 2: defense is going to create a bunch of problems for 1354 01:17:55,120 --> 01:17:58,519 Speaker 2: That San francisco. Offense, AGAIN i don't. KNOW i Know 1355 01:17:58,560 --> 01:18:00,920 Speaker 2: Trent williams is, playing but we still don't know really 1356 01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:04,280 Speaker 2: the overall health Of Trent williams and how healthy he, 1357 01:18:04,400 --> 01:18:07,920 Speaker 2: is the left tackle For San francisco who has a 1358 01:18:08,000 --> 01:18:10,479 Speaker 2: large impact on their success both running the football and 1359 01:18:10,479 --> 01:18:13,799 Speaker 2: passing it obviously with Protecting Rock. Purdy SO i, envision 1360 01:18:14,120 --> 01:18:15,920 Speaker 2: as long As Sam donald could take care of the, 1361 01:18:15,920 --> 01:18:20,120 Speaker 2: football that The Seattle seahawks should cruise past The San 1362 01:18:20,120 --> 01:18:23,240 Speaker 2: francisco forty nine. ERS i apologize that if you're listening 1363 01:18:23,439 --> 01:18:24,120 Speaker 2: AND i just made you. 1364 01:18:24,160 --> 01:18:30,200 Speaker 1: Mad, Hey, jake immense economic regional impact if The bears 1365 01:18:30,200 --> 01:18:33,920 Speaker 1: were to, MOVE i would disagree with. THAT i think 1366 01:18:33,920 --> 01:18:36,559 Speaker 1: that people would anticipate, That but, like are people From 1367 01:18:37,439 --> 01:18:39,240 Speaker 1: arizona that want to go see The cardinals play The 1368 01:18:39,240 --> 01:18:40,439 Speaker 1: bear is going to be, like, Yeah we're stay at 1369 01:18:40,479 --> 01:18:43,519 Speaker 1: The holiday And express And. VALPO i, MEAN i guess 1370 01:18:43,520 --> 01:18:46,680 Speaker 1: you would get more footprint through there than you do. 1371 01:18:46,840 --> 01:18:48,800 Speaker 1: Now BUT i think for the most part it would 1372 01:18:48,800 --> 01:18:51,160 Speaker 1: be people From chicago driving in go to the, game driving. 1373 01:18:51,200 --> 01:18:56,000 Speaker 1: Out that's just my. THOUGHT i Think San francisco is 1374 01:18:56,040 --> 01:19:01,320 Speaker 1: going to Beat. Seattle oh really there. IS i Believe 1375 01:19:01,400 --> 01:19:04,839 Speaker 1: darnold is also banged, up correct and a bleak. Injury, 1376 01:19:04,960 --> 01:19:09,680 Speaker 1: YES i just think beating those two teams are very 1377 01:19:09,680 --> 01:19:13,599 Speaker 1: similar to one. Another and, Yes seattle's defense is, very, 1378 01:19:13,720 --> 01:19:17,080 Speaker 1: very very. Good AND i think most people know. This 1379 01:19:17,160 --> 01:19:19,200 Speaker 1: i'm kind of A seahawks. Fan i've always liked The. 1380 01:19:19,200 --> 01:19:21,120 Speaker 1: Seahawks remember you went To. Seattle you got me The 1381 01:19:21,160 --> 01:19:23,680 Speaker 1: SEAHAWKS t. Shirt i've always liked The. SEAHAWKS i got 1382 01:19:23,680 --> 01:19:25,960 Speaker 1: a couple of Cool seahawks. HATS i like the logoing 1383 01:19:26,000 --> 01:19:28,480 Speaker 1: and the marketing and the color scheme of The, seahawks 1384 01:19:28,520 --> 01:19:31,720 Speaker 1: probably more than the. Team BUT i would like to 1385 01:19:31,760 --> 01:19:34,040 Speaker 1: See seattle. Win BUT i Think San francisco wins that 1386 01:19:34,120 --> 01:19:37,080 Speaker 1: game just BECAUSE i think they are very, even AND 1387 01:19:37,120 --> 01:19:41,680 Speaker 1: i think there becomes like this mental aspect of the 1388 01:19:41,720 --> 01:19:45,439 Speaker 1: beating a team twice within a month type angle to. 1389 01:19:45,520 --> 01:19:50,719 Speaker 1: It The New York, giants by the, way Hiring John, 1390 01:19:50,800 --> 01:19:53,960 Speaker 1: harbaugh that is not a huge. Surprise but the other 1391 01:19:54,040 --> 01:19:56,960 Speaker 1: game in THE, nfc let's get to, that talking about 1392 01:19:57,040 --> 01:19:59,639 Speaker 1: The bears In chicago and a rematch of the EIGHTY 1393 01:19:59,680 --> 01:20:02,880 Speaker 1: fivefc title. Game The bears were all over The rams 1394 01:20:02,880 --> 01:20:04,400 Speaker 1: in that. Game you see this what How? 1395 01:20:04,520 --> 01:20:08,559 Speaker 2: EDDIE i think this will be the most entertaining game 1396 01:20:08,640 --> 01:20:11,840 Speaker 2: of the weekend BECAUSE i think that, game the OTHER nfc, 1397 01:20:11,880 --> 01:20:13,880 Speaker 2: game is going to be grind. Out whoever's going to. 1398 01:20:13,920 --> 01:20:16,880 Speaker 2: Score you, know whenever you have the opportunity to take, 1399 01:20:16,880 --> 01:20:18,479 Speaker 2: points you got to take them in that. One Because 1400 01:20:18,880 --> 01:20:21,160 Speaker 2: seattle's only scored twenty six total points in their two. 1401 01:20:21,200 --> 01:20:25,920 Speaker 2: Meetings San francisco's only scored. TWENTY i want to take 1402 01:20:26,520 --> 01:20:29,519 Speaker 2: The rams because they were My Super bowl prediction to 1403 01:20:29,560 --> 01:20:32,879 Speaker 2: start the, season But i'm still worried about that. Defense 1404 01:20:33,000 --> 01:20:36,160 Speaker 2: like even though they they had a great offensive game 1405 01:20:36,280 --> 01:20:39,880 Speaker 2: Against carolina at second, half The panthers were able to 1406 01:20:39,920 --> 01:20:43,200 Speaker 2: pretty much do whatever they wanted, offensively and This bears 1407 01:20:43,200 --> 01:20:47,519 Speaker 2: offense is much better Than carolina's. Offense Can chicago forced 1408 01:20:47,520 --> 01:20:48,440 Speaker 2: a turnover. 1409 01:20:48,320 --> 01:20:48,959 Speaker 1: Or two. 1410 01:20:50,600 --> 01:20:52,519 Speaker 2: And steal a couple of possions away from The, RAMS 1411 01:20:52,560 --> 01:20:54,720 Speaker 2: i think they. Do AND i think The bears are 1412 01:20:54,720 --> 01:20:56,320 Speaker 2: going to be one of the two teams represented in 1413 01:20:56,320 --> 01:20:57,280 Speaker 2: THE Nfc Championship. 1414 01:20:57,320 --> 01:21:04,519 Speaker 1: Game, OKAY i think The. Rams The bears are probably 1415 01:21:04,560 --> 01:21:07,240 Speaker 1: here to. Stay they're a very good. Team Caleb williams 1416 01:21:07,280 --> 01:21:11,720 Speaker 1: makes plays when it, matters AND i think they did 1417 01:21:11,760 --> 01:21:13,360 Speaker 1: make a good pick at tight. END i laughed at 1418 01:21:13,360 --> 01:21:15,880 Speaker 1: it at, first nothing Against Tyler, warren but you, know 1419 01:21:17,160 --> 01:21:23,080 Speaker 1: they've got really good. Pieces but teams that become like 1420 01:21:23,120 --> 01:21:25,679 Speaker 1: The cardiac kids that play with fire a lot over the, year, 1421 01:21:25,840 --> 01:21:30,880 Speaker 1: eventually eventually it catches up to you and the experience 1422 01:21:30,960 --> 01:21:35,000 Speaker 1: and the late game composer Of Matt. STAFFORD i think 1423 01:21:35,000 --> 01:21:38,240 Speaker 1: The rams win that. Game so so far we disagree 1424 01:21:38,320 --> 01:21:39,799 Speaker 1: up both here, ready, Right, yeah. 1425 01:21:39,680 --> 01:21:42,400 Speaker 2: Here's the SOMETHING i found earlier in the. Week Matthew 1426 01:21:42,439 --> 01:21:47,320 Speaker 2: stafford in games that comprise of either cold, weather rain 1427 01:21:47,439 --> 01:21:50,479 Speaker 2: or snow in his, career he's one and eight completion 1428 01:21:50,720 --> 01:21:55,200 Speaker 2: percentage fifty four zero point six, percent fourteen, touchdowns eleven. 1429 01:21:55,240 --> 01:21:59,439 Speaker 2: Picks it is expected to be eighteen degrees and rain 1430 01:21:59,520 --> 01:22:03,559 Speaker 2: in the four cast On sunday In. Chicago rain would be, snow, 1431 01:22:03,720 --> 01:22:06,599 Speaker 2: Right i'm just saying it's. Rain if it's. 1432 01:22:06,400 --> 01:22:09,799 Speaker 1: Eighteen, degrees doesn't that can there be rain in eighteen? 1433 01:22:09,840 --> 01:22:15,160 Speaker 1: Degrees it'd be sleep wintery, mix wintery? Mix? Yeah, OKAY 1434 01:22:15,560 --> 01:22:21,280 Speaker 1: afc side of, Things, yes pretty want to. Start give 1435 01:22:21,320 --> 01:22:23,519 Speaker 1: me the one that you look at and you think 1436 01:22:23,640 --> 01:22:25,080 Speaker 1: is the most clear cut obvious. 1437 01:22:25,120 --> 01:22:30,200 Speaker 2: ANSWER i believe it would be The denver and The buffalo, 1438 01:22:30,520 --> 01:22:33,639 Speaker 2: game because If Josh allen's gonna, win he's gonna Through 1439 01:22:33,680 --> 01:22:39,519 Speaker 2: Superman Tyrrell shavers, Down Game davis, Down they're Going they 1440 01:22:39,560 --> 01:22:42,599 Speaker 2: have struggled this. Year The buffalo has offensively against teams 1441 01:22:42,600 --> 01:22:45,360 Speaker 2: that run main, coverage And denver runs a lot of man, 1442 01:22:45,400 --> 01:22:48,160 Speaker 2: coverage AND i think that defensive front is going to 1443 01:22:48,200 --> 01:22:50,200 Speaker 2: be a. Problem they're going to sell out to Stop 1444 01:22:50,280 --> 01:22:52,200 Speaker 2: James cook in the run, game and they'll be, like all, Right, 1445 01:22:52,439 --> 01:22:54,639 Speaker 2: josh you're gonna have to win it with your right 1446 01:22:54,720 --> 01:22:59,439 Speaker 2: arm and throwing the you, know Uh Khalil, Shakir Dawson, 1447 01:22:59,520 --> 01:23:03,360 Speaker 2: Knox Alton. Kincaid AND i don't know If allen has 1448 01:23:03,360 --> 01:23:05,120 Speaker 2: the ability to do, so even though he did it Against. 1449 01:23:05,160 --> 01:23:07,960 Speaker 2: JACKSONVILLE i think this defense For denver's a much bigger. 1450 01:23:08,000 --> 01:23:18,320 Speaker 1: PROBLEM i would say it feels to me If buffalo 1451 01:23:18,400 --> 01:23:20,120 Speaker 1: is going to get it done in The Josh allen, 1452 01:23:20,160 --> 01:23:22,479 Speaker 1: era it's got to be this. Year. Right we probably 1453 01:23:22,479 --> 01:23:26,400 Speaker 1: say that every, year and Bow nicks is better Than 1454 01:23:26,400 --> 01:23:31,200 Speaker 1: i've given him. Credit i'll Say buffalo goes in there, 1455 01:23:31,240 --> 01:23:31,960 Speaker 1: though and shocks the. 1456 01:23:32,000 --> 01:23:37,439 Speaker 2: World so we are three for three on, differences which 1457 01:23:37,560 --> 01:23:39,360 Speaker 2: leads to our last. One i'll let you go first 1458 01:23:39,360 --> 01:23:43,800 Speaker 2: on this. One houston And New england In, Foxborough. 1459 01:23:45,160 --> 01:23:53,840 Speaker 1: MASSACHUSETTS i Think Drake may is really, good better than 1460 01:23:53,840 --> 01:23:57,960 Speaker 1: he's given. Credit BUT i think he's started to show 1461 01:23:58,040 --> 01:24:09,519 Speaker 1: a few signs of the. INEXPERIENCES. Cj stroud also shows 1462 01:24:09,560 --> 01:24:15,280 Speaker 1: a blip of inconsistency at. Times BUT i think That 1463 01:24:15,439 --> 01:24:21,360 Speaker 1: houston defense is, really really really, stout AND i Think 1464 01:24:21,400 --> 01:24:24,800 Speaker 1: New england is one that while they are very, good 1465 01:24:26,040 --> 01:24:28,160 Speaker 1: they might be a little bit misleading because they'd beat 1466 01:24:28,200 --> 01:24:31,400 Speaker 1: a lot of really bad. Teams AND i Think houston's 1467 01:24:31,400 --> 01:24:33,240 Speaker 1: playing at a high level right. NOW i will Take 1468 01:24:33,280 --> 01:24:36,360 Speaker 1: houston in that game because of their. 1469 01:24:36,360 --> 01:24:41,600 Speaker 2: Defense No Nicol collins for The. Texans it looks like 1470 01:24:41,640 --> 01:24:46,000 Speaker 2: he's in the concussion protocol to that practice. TODAY i 1471 01:24:46,000 --> 01:24:47,200 Speaker 2: don't think that Stops houston. 1472 01:24:47,240 --> 01:24:47,960 Speaker 1: EITHER i like. 1473 01:24:47,920 --> 01:24:50,240 Speaker 2: Their defense way too. Much they're way too physical. UPFRONT 1474 01:24:50,960 --> 01:24:52,639 Speaker 2: i think they'll be able to get After Drake may 1475 01:24:53,280 --> 01:24:55,719 Speaker 2: AND i think cjs child will make just enough plays 1476 01:24:55,720 --> 01:24:58,479 Speaker 2: with if It's Christian kirkigan who had eight for one 1477 01:24:59,160 --> 01:25:04,040 Speaker 2: touchdown Against vince Or Jaydon higgins or, somebody they'll figure something. 1478 01:25:04,080 --> 01:25:06,360 Speaker 2: Out Winning mark's on a cell game and his first 1479 01:25:06,360 --> 01:25:08,840 Speaker 2: career playoff. GAME i will also Take. 1480 01:25:09,040 --> 01:25:12,280 Speaker 1: Houston so there is our one similar, pick which Means, 1481 01:25:12,360 --> 01:25:16,679 Speaker 1: jake that'll be the one that we. Lose that's probably, right, 1482 01:25:16,800 --> 01:25:20,120 Speaker 1: Right that's probably, Right courtney CrowdIn by the, way coming 1483 01:25:20,160 --> 01:25:24,360 Speaker 1: up top of the Hor, Hey, jake you are the. 1484 01:25:24,400 --> 01:25:27,160 Speaker 1: Man But buffalo winning In denver is the opposite of 1485 01:25:27,200 --> 01:25:32,160 Speaker 1: shocking the. World both those statements probably. True i'm not the. 1486 01:25:32,200 --> 01:25:34,000 Speaker 1: MAN i can. Listen how CAN i be the man 1487 01:25:34,040 --> 01:25:34,519 Speaker 1: when you're the? 1488 01:25:34,520 --> 01:25:37,840 Speaker 2: Man you're talking about? Me how? 1489 01:25:37,920 --> 01:25:44,200 Speaker 1: Nice and this is ACTUALLY i tend to agree with 1490 01:25:44,240 --> 01:25:48,120 Speaker 1: this caller BECAUSE i, said, well but, maybe But denver 1491 01:25:48,320 --> 01:25:52,400 Speaker 1: is the number one seed text or yes says, fair totally. 1492 01:25:52,400 --> 01:25:54,360 Speaker 1: Fair that still feels completely shocking to, me AND i 1493 01:25:54,400 --> 01:25:56,320 Speaker 1: struggle to see them as even a top tier team 1494 01:25:56,360 --> 01:25:58,800 Speaker 1: in THE, afc let alone the number one. Seed so 1495 01:25:58,920 --> 01:26:01,280 Speaker 1: maybe it's on. Me literally cannot get my head around 1496 01:26:01,280 --> 01:26:03,479 Speaker 1: THAT i would tend to agree with. THAT i just 1497 01:26:03,520 --> 01:26:05,320 Speaker 1: think That buffalo WHEN i said The buffalo goes in 1498 01:26:05,360 --> 01:26:08,599 Speaker 1: and shocks the, WORLD i think it's because most people 1499 01:26:08,720 --> 01:26:11,719 Speaker 1: Assume buffalo is the better, team but they also assume 1500 01:26:11,800 --> 01:26:14,840 Speaker 1: in the playoffs The buffalo always like comes up a 1501 01:26:14,920 --> 01:26:18,760 Speaker 1: yard short in the big. Moment and it feels to 1502 01:26:18,880 --> 01:26:22,960 Speaker 1: me like this is the year That buffalo finally breaks 1503 01:26:22,960 --> 01:26:26,479 Speaker 1: through and gets back to the Super. Bowl BUT i 1504 01:26:26,520 --> 01:26:28,880 Speaker 1: AND i think most people KNOW i Love Josh. ALLEN i, 1505 01:26:28,880 --> 01:26:35,320 Speaker 1: MEAN i think he's tremendous and in all areas and 1506 01:26:35,360 --> 01:26:39,040 Speaker 1: fun to, watch and you know he's just when he's, 1507 01:26:39,080 --> 01:26:42,400 Speaker 1: there you have a hard time going against. That but 1508 01:26:42,439 --> 01:26:46,160 Speaker 1: that's if they were to Beat, denver then you know 1509 01:26:46,240 --> 01:26:48,880 Speaker 1: they're still going to have a tall, task, right regardless 1510 01:26:48,880 --> 01:26:56,639 Speaker 1: of which team that they. Face the one thing that 1511 01:26:56,920 --> 01:26:58,960 Speaker 1: And i'm glad that they're playing In chicago and Not 1512 01:26:59,200 --> 01:27:05,000 Speaker 1: la AND i hope that it's snowy And denver because 1513 01:27:05,520 --> 01:27:08,120 Speaker 1: there's just something about playoff football where it's supposed to 1514 01:27:08,200 --> 01:27:13,240 Speaker 1: look like this outside when you're watching deep LATE nfl playoff, 1515 01:27:13,240 --> 01:27:16,559 Speaker 1: games you're supposed to be, like have like two blankets 1516 01:27:16,560 --> 01:27:18,680 Speaker 1: on youa on the, couch, Right and that's how it. 1517 01:27:18,720 --> 01:27:23,719 Speaker 1: Feels AND i can't be the only one that thinks 1518 01:27:23,800 --> 01:27:30,160 Speaker 1: this growing. UP i remember WHEN i was a freshman in. 1519 01:27:30,200 --> 01:27:35,320 Speaker 1: COLLEGE i as soon AS i got to, SCHOOL i 1520 01:27:35,320 --> 01:27:38,400 Speaker 1: immediately like the first guy THAT i, met the first 1521 01:27:38,400 --> 01:27:40,400 Speaker 1: group of kids THAT i met at freshman orientation were 1522 01:27:40,439 --> 01:27:44,920 Speaker 1: all From, denver AND i just assumed That denver was 1523 01:27:45,000 --> 01:27:46,920 Speaker 1: LIKE i was, like oh, man you guys must like 1524 01:27:46,960 --> 01:27:48,680 Speaker 1: be in the snow all the.

Program, courtney the lead question for you 1580 01:31:02,760 --> 01:31:06,240 Speaker 1: would be, this if you were to close your eyes 1581 01:31:06,360 --> 01:31:10,240 Speaker 1: into envision with which of these two scenarios when you 1582 01:31:10,320 --> 01:31:14,760 Speaker 1: were a child seemed more unlikely to you that The 1583 01:31:14,840 --> 01:31:18,599 Speaker 1: Chicago bears could someday win A Super bowl and bring 1584 01:31:18,640 --> 01:31:21,839 Speaker 1: Their lombardy right there to the folks In, Hammond indiana 1585 01:31:21,920 --> 01:31:24,760 Speaker 1: outside the, stadium or that they would be doing so 1586 01:31:24,960 --> 01:31:27,759 Speaker 1: in the same state as the twenty twenty five season 1587 01:31:27,840 --> 01:31:29,160 Speaker 1: national Champion Indiana. 1588 01:31:29,160 --> 01:31:35,080 Speaker 4: HOOSIERS i know that teams play outside of their city's, 1589 01:31:35,160 --> 01:31:38,479 Speaker 4: namesake like with The New york. Teams se forty nine 1590 01:31:38,720 --> 01:31:43,479 Speaker 4: play a long, place a long way away From San, 1591 01:31:43,520 --> 01:31:46,360 Speaker 4: Francisco but it's you, KNOW i didn't think that we'd 1592 01:31:46,360 --> 01:31:49,200 Speaker 4: be ever talking about The bears potentially moving in Northwest. 1593 01:31:49,280 --> 01:31:52,320 Speaker 4: Indiana but it's you, know they went to The Super 1594 01:31:52,360 --> 01:31:55,400 Speaker 4: bowl in my lifetime once they lost pretty, badly SO 1595 01:31:55,479 --> 01:31:57,800 Speaker 4: i thought at least at one point they'd probably get back. 1596 01:31:57,840 --> 01:32:01,599 Speaker 4: There just did not think that it would consider them 1597 01:32:01,640 --> 01:32:03,719 Speaker 4: not being in the city in which they are named. 1598 01:32:03,720 --> 01:32:07,519 Speaker 1: After is this because The i'll be Honest. Courtney when 1599 01:32:07,520 --> 01:32:13,040 Speaker 1: this first was surfaced as a, possibility maybe even a 1600 01:32:13,040 --> 01:32:16,280 Speaker 1: pipe dream Of indiana being the home to The bears, 1601 01:32:16,320 --> 01:32:19,880 Speaker 1: STADIUM i think most people and maybe still many, do, Thought, 1602 01:32:19,920 --> 01:32:23,240 Speaker 1: okay this is a negotiation, ploy but it's never actually 1603 01:32:23,240 --> 01:32:26,559 Speaker 1: going to come to. Fruition where do are people now 1604 01:32:26,640 --> 01:32:28,600 Speaker 1: starting to raise an, eyebrow, like wait a, minute is 1605 01:32:28,600 --> 01:32:32,120 Speaker 1: this actually a? Possibility where where do things realistically? Stand? 1606 01:32:32,640 --> 01:32:34,799 Speaker 4: WELL i think it was in that letter That Kevin 1607 01:32:34,840 --> 01:32:38,679 Speaker 4: warren released back before The packers game At Soldier field 1608 01:32:38,680 --> 01:32:40,680 Speaker 4: where he, said this is not a leverage, Play and 1609 01:32:40,720 --> 01:32:44,759 Speaker 4: it was absolutely a leverage play because you don't reveal 1610 01:32:44,960 --> 01:32:47,920 Speaker 4: big time stadium news that you're considering moving out of the. 1611 01:32:47,920 --> 01:32:51,320 Speaker 4: State altogether three days before the biggest home game at 1612 01:32:51,360 --> 01:32:54,760 Speaker 4: that point in, years if you're not trying to put 1613 01:32:54,800 --> 01:32:57,120 Speaker 4: some pressure. Elsewhere AND i mean they've done, this this 1614 01:32:57,160 --> 01:32:59,559 Speaker 4: is their. Strategy like they did it the day before 1615 01:32:59,600 --> 01:33:02,400 Speaker 4: the draft in twenty twenty, four like all eyes around The. 1616 01:33:02,439 --> 01:33:04,679 Speaker 4: Bears they had the number one overall, Pick Caleb williams 1617 01:33:04,720 --> 01:33:07,639 Speaker 4: was coming, here and they announced that they had these 1618 01:33:07,680 --> 01:33:11,400 Speaker 4: grandiose plans to stay on the lakefront At Soldier, field 1619 01:33:11,840 --> 01:33:16,360 Speaker 4: big breast, conference whole like pomp and circumstance for. That 1620 01:33:16,760 --> 01:33:20,320 Speaker 4: they did it before the opener this year they announced 1621 01:33:20,320 --> 01:33:22,360 Speaker 4: that they're going To Arlington, heights no, More city Of, 1622 01:33:22,439 --> 01:33:26,000 Speaker 4: chicago not they don't want to negotiate to stay in 1623 01:33:26,040 --> 01:33:28,080 Speaker 4: the city because of what the city would not, pay 1624 01:33:28,080 --> 01:33:29,720 Speaker 4: what the state would not pay to keep them down. 1625 01:33:29,760 --> 01:33:32,840 Speaker 4: There and then they did it. Again so it's the 1626 01:33:32,840 --> 01:33:36,639 Speaker 4: playbook like that they've been following all. Along that shows, 1627 01:33:36,680 --> 01:33:38,640 Speaker 4: you or at least you know someone who covers the. 1628 01:33:38,640 --> 01:33:40,960 Speaker 4: Team this is not. SURPRISING i think Most bears fans 1629 01:33:41,000 --> 01:33:42,880 Speaker 4: hear the stuff and you're, like, yeah, rinse, repeat this 1630 01:33:42,920 --> 01:33:47,200 Speaker 4: is how business is. Done but as it has, appeared 1631 01:33:47,200 --> 01:33:49,920 Speaker 4: this is getting more. SERIOUS i think we came to 1632 01:33:50,040 --> 01:33:55,720 Speaker 4: a bit of a boiling point yesterday When indiana's lawmakers 1633 01:33:55,720 --> 01:33:59,320 Speaker 4: introduced that bill to you, know draw The, bears draw 1634 01:33:59,360 --> 01:34:03,200 Speaker 4: other big busines businesses to their, state and The Arlington 1635 01:34:03,240 --> 01:34:06,760 Speaker 4: heights mayor you know was talking yesterday Saying illinois needs 1636 01:34:06,800 --> 01:34:09,599 Speaker 4: to pass the The Mega Projects, bill which is a 1637 01:34:09,640 --> 01:34:13,599 Speaker 4: bill In layman's, terms to get big, businesses big, entities 1638 01:34:13,600 --> 01:34:16,679 Speaker 4: so not just The bears but other businesses to stay 1639 01:34:16,720 --> 01:34:19,000 Speaker 4: In Cook county and stay in the state Of illinois 1640 01:34:19,240 --> 01:34:22,800 Speaker 4: by allowing them the opportunity to negotiate tax breaks with 1641 01:34:22,880 --> 01:34:25,920 Speaker 4: school districts and with the towns in which they would. 1642 01:34:26,000 --> 01:34:28,600 Speaker 4: Reside but it feels like they're pretty serious about this 1643 01:34:28,640 --> 01:34:31,360 Speaker 4: because they've gotten stiff armed by The state Of illinois 1644 01:34:31,400 --> 01:34:34,160 Speaker 4: for a while, now AND i guess they view this 1645 01:34:34,200 --> 01:34:36,960 Speaker 4: if they don't have many other. Options but it is 1646 01:34:37,080 --> 01:34:39,920 Speaker 4: kind of wild to think. About this could move kind 1647 01:34:39,960 --> 01:34:43,600 Speaker 4: of quickly If indiana does indeed see this legislation go. 1648 01:34:43,720 --> 01:34:46,200 Speaker 4: THROUGH i know, that you, know On thursday it went 1649 01:34:46,240 --> 01:34:48,920 Speaker 4: to The committee And. Appropriations it was a signed to, 1650 01:34:48,960 --> 01:34:52,320 Speaker 4: Them so we'll see how Quickly indiana. Acts But, illinois 1651 01:34:52,320 --> 01:34:54,200 Speaker 4: at least right now it's kind of dug in and 1652 01:34:54,280 --> 01:34:56,719 Speaker 4: seeing the pressure from some of these, Towns Arlington heights, 1653 01:34:56,720 --> 01:35:01,080 Speaker 4: included to try to do whatever you can and make 1654 01:35:01,080 --> 01:35:03,400 Speaker 4: sure the, team like your ONE nfl, team doesn't leave the. 1655 01:35:03,400 --> 01:35:08,360 Speaker 1: State you, know oftentimes when this, happens and we've seen 1656 01:35:08,400 --> 01:35:12,960 Speaker 1: it a billion places and probably you, know nowhere more 1657 01:35:12,960 --> 01:35:15,320 Speaker 1: so Than chicago with The bears to your, Point, courtney 1658 01:35:15,320 --> 01:35:17,559 Speaker 1: but when it comes down to it and you get 1659 01:35:17,560 --> 01:35:19,960 Speaker 1: to the eleventh, hour everybody always seems to find like 1660 01:35:20,000 --> 01:35:21,720 Speaker 1: this common ground and then you're, like, okay this was 1661 01:35:21,720 --> 01:35:26,960 Speaker 1: all or? Not is are we at the point where 1662 01:35:27,040 --> 01:35:29,400 Speaker 1: the people Of chicago or the state Of, illinois AND 1663 01:35:29,439 --> 01:35:32,479 Speaker 1: i would not blame, Them, okay are we at the 1664 01:35:32,520 --> 01:35:34,160 Speaker 1: point where they would just, say you know, what you 1665 01:35:34,200 --> 01:35:36,519 Speaker 1: guys have been calling this bluff and asking for more 1666 01:35:36,680 --> 01:35:40,439 Speaker 1: for too. Long you, know, leave go go ahead and 1667 01:35:40,439 --> 01:35:43,439 Speaker 1: go enough is. Enough we're drawing the line of the, 1668 01:35:43,479 --> 01:35:46,599 Speaker 1: sand WHICH i would love when if a tax group 1669 01:35:46,640 --> 01:35:50,519 Speaker 1: would do. That but is that a possibility that just 1670 01:35:50,720 --> 01:35:56,000 Speaker 1: overall almost apathetic nature of the constant soap opera of 1671 01:35:56,000 --> 01:35:57,080 Speaker 1: it would get to that. 1672 01:35:57,120 --> 01:35:59,679 Speaker 4: Point well that's what the governor's office has been saying 1673 01:35:59,720 --> 01:36:03,759 Speaker 4: for a while. Now how SERIOUS. Jb pritzker is remains 1674 01:36:03,760 --> 01:36:06,080 Speaker 4: to be. Seen you don't want to run for president 1675 01:36:06,120 --> 01:36:08,760 Speaker 4: of The United states in twenty twenty eight on The 1676 01:36:08,800 --> 01:36:13,040 Speaker 4: democratic ticket and be the guy who lets The bears 1677 01:36:13,439 --> 01:36:15,400 Speaker 4: leave the. State, NOW i still think that he would 1678 01:36:15,439 --> 01:36:18,000 Speaker 4: get his voter. Base illinois a very blue. State it's 1679 01:36:18,040 --> 01:36:20,040 Speaker 4: not hard to find those votes. Elsewhere but it's not 1680 01:36:20,080 --> 01:36:22,760 Speaker 4: a good look either. Way it's also not a good 1681 01:36:22,800 --> 01:36:26,400 Speaker 4: look to do What kansas just did and funding like 1682 01:36:26,520 --> 01:36:30,160 Speaker 4: the largest prior of the largest stadium project has ever 1683 01:36:30,160 --> 01:36:35,000 Speaker 4: been funded by a state government in the history of 1684 01:36:35,000 --> 01:36:37,360 Speaker 4: The United. States, like there's got to be some sort 1685 01:36:37,360 --> 01:36:40,160 Speaker 4: of common ground, Here but The bears have been. Trying 1686 01:36:40,280 --> 01:36:43,960 Speaker 4: like it's not that they have not been trying to, 1687 01:36:44,000 --> 01:36:46,760 Speaker 4: accommodate like where the state, is but the state's been 1688 01:36:47,240 --> 01:36:48,960 Speaker 4: drawing this line in the sand for a. WHILE i 1689 01:36:49,000 --> 01:36:51,000 Speaker 4: don't think it comes to this just. YET i feel 1690 01:36:51,000 --> 01:36:52,920 Speaker 4: like there's a little bit more time before they truly 1691 01:36:52,960 --> 01:36:55,640 Speaker 4: call their. Bluff but their, bluff it's all like the 1692 01:36:55,680 --> 01:36:57,519 Speaker 4: ability to call their bluff is going to be based 1693 01:36:57,520 --> 01:37:00,200 Speaker 4: on When indiana is able to pull the trigger and, say, 1694 01:37:00,280 --> 01:37:03,560 Speaker 4: hey we have all this in, Place we're ready to. 1695 01:37:03,600 --> 01:37:06,080 Speaker 4: Go all we needed to do is get an approval 1696 01:37:06,080 --> 01:37:09,840 Speaker 4: from the. Team it's going to take that, HAPPENING i 1697 01:37:09,880 --> 01:37:12,759 Speaker 4: think For illinois to believe it truly is the eleventh 1698 01:37:12,800 --> 01:37:14,960 Speaker 4: hour and try to get at least in the city 1699 01:37:14,960 --> 01:37:19,120 Speaker 4: Of Arlington, heights try to get the tax breaks that 1700 01:37:19,160 --> 01:37:20,880 Speaker 4: the team wants because right now they don't pay any 1701 01:37:20,920 --> 01:37:24,639 Speaker 4: property taxes on their stadiums it's a publicly owned. Building 1702 01:37:25,040 --> 01:37:27,879 Speaker 4: that would not be the case when they are In Arlington, 1703 01:37:27,920 --> 01:37:30,880 Speaker 4: heights which is why they've been trying to negotiate a tax. 1704 01:37:30,920 --> 01:37:33,240 Speaker 4: Break and of course taxpayers are going to, say it's 1705 01:37:33,280 --> 01:37:35,479 Speaker 4: a billion dollar, entity you pay for. It but there's 1706 01:37:35,479 --> 01:37:37,439 Speaker 4: so much more that goes into, it with the, roads the, 1707 01:37:37,479 --> 01:37:39,880 Speaker 4: infrastructure all the things that it would require to get 1708 01:37:39,880 --> 01:37:43,160 Speaker 4: a stadium, built that it does kind of feel impossible 1709 01:37:43,200 --> 01:37:47,040 Speaker 4: that there won't be some acquiescing if they do end 1710 01:37:47,120 --> 01:37:49,280 Speaker 4: up staying in the state Of, illinois to having the 1711 01:37:49,320 --> 01:37:51,960 Speaker 4: state help with some of those some of the sub 1712 01:37:52,360 --> 01:37:54,960 Speaker 4: subsidizing the. Project there's just no way that like one 1713 01:37:55,080 --> 01:37:56,040 Speaker 4: entity could pay for all. 1714 01:37:56,080 --> 01:37:59,080 Speaker 1: That do The bears win On sunday or do they? 1715 01:37:59,360 --> 01:38:00,920 Speaker 1: Have they played fire one too many? 1716 01:38:00,960 --> 01:38:04,640 Speaker 4: TIMES i don't have them Winning. SUNDAY i think The 1717 01:38:04,720 --> 01:38:06,920 Speaker 4: rams are the best team in THE, nfc AND i 1718 01:38:07,000 --> 01:38:09,920 Speaker 4: know that they've been not great on defense in the 1719 01:38:10,000 --> 01:38:13,200 Speaker 4: last four, weeks but it's still a better defensive line 1720 01:38:13,240 --> 01:38:15,680 Speaker 4: than The bears have faced in a long, time And 1721 01:38:15,800 --> 01:38:18,439 Speaker 4: Matthew stafford is playing in AN mvp. LEVEL i think 1722 01:38:18,479 --> 01:38:20,920 Speaker 4: the magic runs out this week and that they end 1723 01:38:21,040 --> 01:38:24,519 Speaker 4: up having an eleven win regular. Season they won a 1724 01:38:24,520 --> 01:38:26,840 Speaker 4: playoff game against their arch, rival they did it at, 1725 01:38:26,840 --> 01:38:30,879 Speaker 4: home AND i think that The seahawks and The rams 1726 01:38:30,960 --> 01:38:33,240 Speaker 4: or THE nfc championship team that we're looking at Next. 1727 01:38:33,240 --> 01:38:37,960 Speaker 1: Sunday Caleb williams is an interesting player to me because 1728 01:38:38,200 --> 01:38:40,879 Speaker 1: he's a fabulous. TALENT i, MEAN i don't think anybody denies, 1729 01:38:41,000 --> 01:38:45,320 Speaker 1: that but there, was and maybe unfairly, So Cordy courtney 1730 01:38:45,360 --> 01:38:48,040 Speaker 1: crowd in the esp And chicago our Guest Java House 1731 01:38:48,040 --> 01:38:50,880 Speaker 1: peel and poor guest. Line there was when he was 1732 01:38:51,000 --> 01:38:53,559 Speaker 1: AT usc there were question, MARKS i think from people 1733 01:38:53,600 --> 01:38:57,720 Speaker 1: externally just about his overall maturity or you, know how 1734 01:38:57,760 --> 01:39:00,800 Speaker 1: serious he was with teammates at set and that maybe 1735 01:39:00,880 --> 01:39:04,400 Speaker 1: was totally. Unfair how has it been just in terms 1736 01:39:04,400 --> 01:39:08,799 Speaker 1: Of Caleb, williams the person and the quarterback With chicago 1737 01:39:09,160 --> 01:39:11,720 Speaker 1: away from what you see the dynamics of the x's and. 1738 01:39:11,760 --> 01:39:15,600 Speaker 4: O's, YEAH i think he's he's tried to be unapologetically, 1739 01:39:15,760 --> 01:39:20,719 Speaker 4: Himself so that means painting his, nails drinking, macha doing 1740 01:39:20,760 --> 01:39:23,360 Speaker 4: all of the you, know all of the things that 1741 01:39:23,479 --> 01:39:26,040 Speaker 4: make him what he. Is AND i know that that 1742 01:39:26,080 --> 01:39:27,880 Speaker 4: rubs some people the wrong way because it kind of 1743 01:39:27,920 --> 01:39:30,599 Speaker 4: does bend the you, know the norms that we have 1744 01:39:30,680 --> 01:39:33,559 Speaker 4: of masculinity in, sports and he hasn't seem to care about. 1745 01:39:33,600 --> 01:39:35,840 Speaker 4: That but you can really only lean all the way 1746 01:39:35,880 --> 01:39:38,639 Speaker 4: into that if your team is winning and if you're 1747 01:39:38,680 --> 01:39:41,559 Speaker 4: a big reason, why which is why you're seeing so 1748 01:39:41,680 --> 01:39:44,200 Speaker 4: much more of him being himself in a very public 1749 01:39:44,360 --> 01:39:47,120 Speaker 4: facing manner this year than you did when he was 1750 01:39:47,160 --> 01:39:49,560 Speaker 4: a rookie and be they were losing a ton of 1751 01:39:49,600 --> 01:39:53,280 Speaker 4: games last. Year SO i think he's always kind of 1752 01:39:53,280 --> 01:39:56,479 Speaker 4: pushed the boundaries of of who he is and not 1753 01:39:56,560 --> 01:40:00,160 Speaker 4: letting football dictate his terms of how he acts turn 1754 01:40:00,200 --> 01:40:02,720 Speaker 4: him into a. Robot he's very. THOUGHTFUL i think most 1755 01:40:02,720 --> 01:40:05,479 Speaker 4: times when you see him at the, podium he's trying 1756 01:40:05,479 --> 01:40:08,400 Speaker 4: to give answers that will provide context or at least 1757 01:40:08,439 --> 01:40:11,120 Speaker 4: show a little bit of insight into his thought. Process 1758 01:40:11,320 --> 01:40:14,280 Speaker 4: what's going on behind the, scenes his relationship With Ben, 1759 01:40:14,360 --> 01:40:18,000 Speaker 4: johnson et. Cetera but you only see that BECAUSE i 1760 01:40:18,000 --> 01:40:20,479 Speaker 4: think he feels comfortable in what he's doing this year 1761 01:40:20,520 --> 01:40:22,799 Speaker 4: and with the coaching staff and being in a position 1762 01:40:22,880 --> 01:40:25,439 Speaker 4: where you know he's going to. Succeed if he was 1763 01:40:25,479 --> 01:40:27,800 Speaker 4: on unstable ground like he was last, YEAR i think 1764 01:40:27,840 --> 01:40:30,240 Speaker 4: you'd see a very closed off version of, him like 1765 01:40:30,280 --> 01:40:32,400 Speaker 4: you would probably a lot of athletes who are struggling 1766 01:40:32,439 --> 01:40:34,040 Speaker 4: to survive in a given. 1767 01:40:34,080 --> 01:40:38,080 Speaker 1: Team, okay let's get To Courty cron and my, guest 1768 01:40:38,200 --> 01:40:40,200 Speaker 1: let's get to the other thing when it comes to 1769 01:40:40,240 --> 01:40:43,840 Speaker 1: football that you look at and you go the x's 1770 01:40:43,880 --> 01:40:45,519 Speaker 1: and o's say that we've got to start taking this. 1771 01:40:45,560 --> 01:40:48,599 Speaker 1: Seriously and obviously we know about it here In. Courtey 1772 01:40:48,640 --> 01:40:50,439 Speaker 1: you know about it because you went To. Indiana we 1773 01:40:50,520 --> 01:40:52,920 Speaker 1: know about the miracle of court. Signety we know ABOUT, 1774 01:40:53,000 --> 01:40:55,240 Speaker 1: iu we know about just how you know what they've 1775 01:40:55,240 --> 01:40:58,120 Speaker 1: done this. Year they have the three best wins in 1776 01:40:58,200 --> 01:41:03,760 Speaker 1: college football realistically. Speaking, Right, However i'm, curious from your 1777 01:41:03,840 --> 01:41:07,200 Speaker 1: standpoint doing national radio and being In, chicago which is 1778 01:41:07,200 --> 01:41:09,360 Speaker 1: the melting pot Of big ten fans from all, over 1779 01:41:09,920 --> 01:41:12,719 Speaker 1: do you believe that the masses are now one hundred 1780 01:41:12,760 --> 01:41:17,040 Speaker 1: percent sold On indiana or is there still a yeah 1781 01:41:17,160 --> 01:41:20,240 Speaker 1: but mentality when absorbing what they've. 1782 01:41:20,240 --> 01:41:22,960 Speaker 4: Done, no of course. NOT i mean there's still people 1783 01:41:23,000 --> 01:41:25,880 Speaker 4: who won't buy into What indiana is doing right, now 1784 01:41:25,960 --> 01:41:28,920 Speaker 4: who you, know go off brands the youw of like 1785 01:41:29,080 --> 01:41:32,080 Speaker 4: the eighties and the, nineties like that's, fine and There's 1786 01:41:32,240 --> 01:41:36,280 Speaker 4: i'm not at all Criticizing miami the current iteration Under Mario. 1787 01:41:36,360 --> 01:41:38,240 Speaker 4: Cristobal it they deserve to be in the. Field they 1788 01:41:38,240 --> 01:41:39,960 Speaker 4: are one of the best twelve teams in the, country 1789 01:41:39,960 --> 01:41:42,240 Speaker 4: as evident by their path to get to the National. 1790 01:41:42,320 --> 01:41:45,479 Speaker 4: Championship BUT i think a lot of fans like it 1791 01:41:45,600 --> 01:41:49,320 Speaker 4: was a couple of weeks ago when The Indiana alabama 1792 01:41:49,360 --> 01:41:52,000 Speaker 4: game was yet to be, played and then afterwards it's 1793 01:41:52,200 --> 01:41:54,640 Speaker 4: what does this mean for THE? Sec how bad of 1794 01:41:54,680 --> 01:41:57,080 Speaker 4: a loss is it to lose To Indiana when you're 1795 01:41:57,080 --> 01:41:59,720 Speaker 4: going off rhetoric from five ten years, AGO i think it's. 1796 01:41:59,800 --> 01:42:01,960 Speaker 4: Late but there's a lot of lazy sports fans who 1797 01:42:02,040 --> 01:42:06,720 Speaker 4: hold on to narratives that are convenient for them from 1798 01:42:06,840 --> 01:42:09,439 Speaker 4: a different time in the, sport a different era in the, 1799 01:42:09,479 --> 01:42:11,519 Speaker 4: sport and their team just hasn't caught up. Yet LIKE 1800 01:42:11,560 --> 01:42:14,880 Speaker 4: i will use the example of The Rose. Bowl the 1801 01:42:14,880 --> 01:42:17,800 Speaker 4: conversation we had On First take the next day wasn't 1802 01:42:17,800 --> 01:42:20,320 Speaker 4: about At Ole miss and how great they were and you, 1803 01:42:20,320 --> 01:42:22,719 Speaker 4: know an incredible, win the comeback in the fourth, quarter 1804 01:42:22,800 --> 01:42:24,760 Speaker 4: The Kirby smart, meltdown it, was, well what does this 1805 01:42:24,840 --> 01:42:29,160 Speaker 4: mean Since georgia And alabama are no longer, playing not 1806 01:42:29,320 --> 01:42:33,000 Speaker 4: celebrating your, team your one team that was, remaining which 1807 01:42:33,040 --> 01:42:35,000 Speaker 4: was a ole myths at that. Point it's looking at 1808 01:42:35,000 --> 01:42:38,920 Speaker 4: the blue bloods of the conference and whining about that 1809 01:42:39,160 --> 01:42:42,400 Speaker 4: and why they're not in there, anymore and acting like this, 1810 01:42:42,600 --> 01:42:46,439 Speaker 4: is you, know an out is an outcry for the 1811 01:42:46,479 --> 01:42:48,240 Speaker 4: rest of the. CONFERENCE i didn't that it's. LAZY i 1812 01:42:48,280 --> 01:42:50,639 Speaker 4: think that people haven't adapted to it. Yet and it's 1813 01:42:50,680 --> 01:42:53,080 Speaker 4: an ever changing environment in college football to where the 1814 01:42:53,080 --> 01:42:55,360 Speaker 4: conversation is changing and if you're not up to date on, 1815 01:42:55,439 --> 01:42:58,920 Speaker 4: it you're going off of talking points from years. Ago 1816 01:42:58,960 --> 01:43:01,840 Speaker 4: and that's. Cool but Like indie and a, fan we 1817 01:43:01,920 --> 01:43:05,599 Speaker 4: know this is not something that was built. Overnight it 1818 01:43:05,640 --> 01:43:08,160 Speaker 4: does feel like a two year, process and it is 1819 01:43:08,200 --> 01:43:12,040 Speaker 4: because they got the national championship In Kurt signetti's second. 1820 01:43:12,040 --> 01:43:16,400 Speaker 4: Season but he's gone about this in a really, long 1821 01:43:16,680 --> 01:43:19,719 Speaker 4: drawn out way where he was in his mid sixties 1822 01:43:19,760 --> 01:43:22,960 Speaker 4: when he got his. Job that's like the antithesis of 1823 01:43:23,000 --> 01:43:26,240 Speaker 4: how these coaches rise to the top of their. Profession 1824 01:43:27,120 --> 01:43:29,680 Speaker 4: in today's era of college. Football it doesn't happen like. 1825 01:43:29,720 --> 01:43:33,320 Speaker 4: That the BITE i heard that hit me the hardest 1826 01:43:33,360 --> 01:43:35,320 Speaker 4: was when he was talking about working For Nick, saban 1827 01:43:35,320 --> 01:43:38,160 Speaker 4: because we know so many of these, Coaches Dan, Lanning Mario, 1828 01:43:38,240 --> 01:43:42,439 Speaker 4: christobal like you, know all of them had had ties To, 1829 01:43:42,439 --> 01:43:45,000 Speaker 4: sabin including Sig and when he's, LIKE i was doing 1830 01:43:45,000 --> 01:43:47,479 Speaker 4: it one way for twenty seven years UNTIL i met 1831 01:43:47,840 --> 01:43:51,280 Speaker 4: coach Coach Coach saban and, started you, know working under, 1832 01:43:51,360 --> 01:43:53,200 Speaker 4: him and it changed my philosophy. Change SO i viewed 1833 01:43:53,240 --> 01:43:55,639 Speaker 4: the game like the thought of that he did something 1834 01:43:55,680 --> 01:44:00,040 Speaker 4: for twenty seven years that's almost three decades, long and 1835 01:44:00,120 --> 01:44:02,479 Speaker 4: that doesn't happen in today's college football, world where coaches 1836 01:44:02,560 --> 01:44:07,520 Speaker 4: move around, quickly players move around, quickly and the landscape 1837 01:44:07,640 --> 01:44:10,120 Speaker 4: is that of instant success or at least the thought 1838 01:44:10,160 --> 01:44:13,080 Speaker 4: of instant. Success SO i think he's just different in 1839 01:44:13,080 --> 01:44:16,320 Speaker 4: that sense where it just goes against the norms of 1840 01:44:16,320 --> 01:44:19,800 Speaker 4: what college football have become and those who have not 1841 01:44:19,840 --> 01:44:21,880 Speaker 4: been privy to it are now waking up to that 1842 01:44:21,920 --> 01:44:24,960 Speaker 4: being part of the conversation Where, indiana of all, teams 1843 01:44:25,240 --> 01:44:27,519 Speaker 4: is not just it's not the doormat of college football, 1844 01:44:27,520 --> 01:44:30,120 Speaker 4: anymore it hasn't been for a. While but the respect 1845 01:44:30,160 --> 01:44:31,960 Speaker 4: that they're getting on the national, STAGE i still think 1846 01:44:32,040 --> 01:44:35,680 Speaker 4: it alludes them to a large degree by people who 1847 01:44:35,680 --> 01:44:39,519 Speaker 4: are holding on to college football of yesteryear is probably 1848 01:44:39,560 --> 01:44:40,200 Speaker 4: the appropriate. 1849 01:44:40,200 --> 01:44:42,320 Speaker 1: Way, yeah and it feels to, Me, Courtney and tell 1850 01:44:42,320 --> 01:44:44,280 Speaker 1: me if you disagree with. THIS i was talking about this, 1851 01:44:44,400 --> 01:44:47,920 Speaker 1: earlier like the way That, Indiana indiana was ahead of 1852 01:44:47,920 --> 01:44:52,080 Speaker 1: the curve in anticipating the nil collective and how to 1853 01:44:52,120 --> 01:44:55,000 Speaker 1: distribute it and how to bring it in more, notably 1854 01:44:55,120 --> 01:44:56,960 Speaker 1: and then in addition to, that how to use the 1855 01:44:57,000 --> 01:45:01,720 Speaker 1: portal and mesh it with youth and everything. Else and 1856 01:45:02,479 --> 01:45:04,160 Speaker 1: So indiana was ahead of the game in. That and 1857 01:45:04,200 --> 01:45:05,880 Speaker 1: there's no reason to believe that they can't be the 1858 01:45:05,920 --> 01:45:09,160 Speaker 1: trendsetter and carry this for a. While But i'm curious 1859 01:45:09,160 --> 01:45:12,920 Speaker 1: if we're not going to see little many, dynasties if you, 1860 01:45:12,960 --> 01:45:16,240 Speaker 1: will where programs just, say, okay we're going to push 1861 01:45:16,320 --> 01:45:19,360 Speaker 1: all in with a huge windfall of money we just 1862 01:45:19,400 --> 01:45:22,840 Speaker 1: got and basically use the portal In nil and recruiting 1863 01:45:23,160 --> 01:45:25,599 Speaker 1: to get a bunch of marquee players for this year 1864 01:45:25,760 --> 01:45:28,000 Speaker 1: and ride that for two to three, years and then 1865 01:45:28,520 --> 01:45:31,320 Speaker 1: you got to kind of wait before the next windfall comes, 1866 01:45:31,400 --> 01:45:32,920 Speaker 1: in and so therefore it will be kind of a. 1867 01:45:33,040 --> 01:45:35,600 Speaker 1: Rotation does that make sense What i'm. Saying if you 1868 01:45:35,640 --> 01:45:37,400 Speaker 1: think that's a, possibility. 1869 01:45:37,160 --> 01:45:40,400 Speaker 4: YEAH i think we will see that because the playing 1870 01:45:40,439 --> 01:45:42,200 Speaker 4: field has been, leveled AND i don't think that's a bad. 1871 01:45:42,200 --> 01:45:47,160 Speaker 4: THING i think that's why those, brands the big ones Like, Alabama, 1872 01:45:47,640 --> 01:45:50,080 Speaker 4: georgia the TEAMS i, Mean i'm just using THE sec 1873 01:45:50,240 --> 01:45:51,880 Speaker 4: as an, example but that's where you hear a lot 1874 01:45:51,880 --> 01:45:54,040 Speaker 4: of the noise coming out about all the transfer portal's 1875 01:45:54,120 --> 01:45:57,320 Speaker 4: ruining EVERYTHING, nil et, cetera et, cetera because they don't 1876 01:45:57,320 --> 01:45:59,240 Speaker 4: get to just have the biggest slice of the pie. 1877 01:45:59,240 --> 01:46:02,400 Speaker 4: Anymore it's all been divvied up to where you can 1878 01:46:02,479 --> 01:46:05,360 Speaker 4: have a team Like miami get back to the biggest 1879 01:46:05,360 --> 01:46:07,479 Speaker 4: stage it's been on in twenty three. Years you can 1880 01:46:07,520 --> 01:46:10,320 Speaker 4: have a team Like indiana that's never been here become 1881 01:46:10,400 --> 01:46:16,519 Speaker 4: relevant because they they played by the current landscape and 1882 01:46:16,560 --> 01:46:18,479 Speaker 4: they made it work for. THEM i, mean there's plenty 1883 01:46:18,479 --> 01:46:20,519 Speaker 4: of other teams THAT i think fit that, Example ole 1884 01:46:20,560 --> 01:46:22,639 Speaker 4: miss being one of them, too going to Get Trinidad 1885 01:46:22,720 --> 01:46:25,720 Speaker 4: chamblis out of the, portal and the success that they 1886 01:46:25,760 --> 01:46:28,680 Speaker 4: had in his first, season coming off a success that 1887 01:46:28,680 --> 01:46:30,320 Speaker 4: they had last. YEAR i know they weren't A cfp, 1888 01:46:30,400 --> 01:46:32,680 Speaker 4: team but they're still a double digit win team in 1889 01:46:32,760 --> 01:46:35,400 Speaker 4: link given second to last season because they got a 1890 01:46:35,400 --> 01:46:38,200 Speaker 4: portal quarterback and some really good players out of the. 1891 01:46:38,200 --> 01:46:40,960 Speaker 4: Portal that's the way you have to do. Business you 1892 01:46:40,960 --> 01:46:43,439 Speaker 4: can't keep holding on to, well like look at the 1893 01:46:43,479 --> 01:46:45,760 Speaker 4: Reason clemson has fallen. Off And i'm not trying just 1894 01:46:45,800 --> 01:46:47,719 Speaker 4: to take a shot at them because they're low hanging, 1895 01:46:47,800 --> 01:46:50,200 Speaker 4: route but it's hard to it's hard to have any 1896 01:46:50,280 --> 01:46:54,479 Speaker 4: respect when there's a coach's who's crying out about like 1897 01:46:54,560 --> 01:46:56,080 Speaker 4: the old days of college. 1898 01:46:56,080 --> 01:46:59,400 Speaker 1: Football yeah that, Listen i'm A clemson. Fan they're stuck 1899 01:46:59,400 --> 01:47:01,840 Speaker 1: in twenty fifth, Right, yeah it's. 1900 01:47:01,720 --> 01:47:04,120 Speaker 4: Adapter Die, Jake AND i think that that's the way 1901 01:47:04,160 --> 01:47:06,519 Speaker 4: That signette's looked at. It look at how aggressive they 1902 01:47:06,520 --> 01:47:08,400 Speaker 4: were in the, Portal like in the middle of the 1903 01:47:08,600 --> 01:47:11,759 Speaker 4: of the, postseason they already had won the off season 1904 01:47:11,920 --> 01:47:15,120 Speaker 4: by what they. Did On, january tewod one day after 1905 01:47:15,160 --> 01:47:18,240 Speaker 4: The Rose bowl when the portal opened, up that you 1906 01:47:18,360 --> 01:47:20,280 Speaker 4: have to approach. It and that's why these little many 1907 01:47:20,360 --> 01:47:22,760 Speaker 4: dynasties you want to call that are even not even 1908 01:47:22,760 --> 01:47:24,360 Speaker 4: saying it things to have to be a. Dynasty you 1909 01:47:24,360 --> 01:47:28,559 Speaker 4: could see teams pop up that win a championship one, 1910 01:47:28,640 --> 01:47:30,640 Speaker 4: year might not be heard from for a, while but 1911 01:47:30,680 --> 01:47:33,240 Speaker 4: are still relevant and in the mix because the playing 1912 01:47:33,240 --> 01:47:35,760 Speaker 4: field has allowed them to go cash in and get, 1913 01:47:35,800 --> 01:47:37,639 Speaker 4: talent and they normally would not Have. 1914 01:47:37,840 --> 01:47:41,120 Speaker 1: Courtney to think. That indiana when they won and Beat 1915 01:47:41,160 --> 01:47:44,559 Speaker 1: alabama so soundly in The Rose, bowl immediately And i'm 1916 01:47:44,600 --> 01:47:46,080 Speaker 1: not saying they wouldn't have done this, anyway but they 1917 01:47:46,080 --> 01:47:48,240 Speaker 1: immediately got back on a charter to come back To 1918 01:47:48,280 --> 01:47:51,240 Speaker 1: bloomington because they had players that were going to be 1919 01:47:51,280 --> 01:47:53,200 Speaker 1: on campus for the portal the next. Day and LIKE i, 1920 01:47:53,240 --> 01:47:57,519 Speaker 1: said success is often found not in the preparation for, 1921 01:47:57,640 --> 01:48:02,240 Speaker 1: today but the awareness of tomorrow right and setting yourself 1922 01:48:02,320 --> 01:48:05,320 Speaker 1: up for. Tomorrow, LASTLY i got to, ask, this Is 1923 01:48:05,400 --> 01:48:07,519 Speaker 1: Kyle tucker really worth sixty million a year for The. 1924 01:48:07,520 --> 01:48:10,400 Speaker 4: DODGERS i, mean The cubs weren't going to pay. That 1925 01:48:10,880 --> 01:48:13,880 Speaker 4: like the day that they Got Alex bregman to. Me 1926 01:48:13,960 --> 01:48:16,280 Speaker 4: that started the domino effect of some of these moves 1927 01:48:16,280 --> 01:48:19,439 Speaker 4: that we saw this, week AND i did not think 1928 01:48:19,439 --> 01:48:21,479 Speaker 4: that they'd be able to keep. Both, obviously there's The 1929 01:48:21,880 --> 01:48:25,519 Speaker 4: Danzby swanson of it. All there's the Match shaw of it, 1930 01:48:25,560 --> 01:48:27,559 Speaker 4: all like what happens to? Him can they trade him 1931 01:48:27,600 --> 01:48:30,519 Speaker 4: for an outfielder because they don't need him playing third base? 1932 01:48:30,560 --> 01:48:34,680 Speaker 4: Anymore sixty, million, THOUGH i, know good for, him good 1933 01:48:34,720 --> 01:48:39,920 Speaker 4: for him coming To chicago using last year to, get you, 1934 01:48:39,960 --> 01:48:42,000 Speaker 4: know to get his big, deal because this is probably 1935 01:48:42,040 --> 01:48:45,680 Speaker 4: the last.
