1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,520 Speaker 1: It is today, and it's actually glorious because it's sunny outside. Yeah, 2 00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:08,399 Speaker 1: it's chili, but I'm down for it. The fact that 3 00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:11,800 Speaker 1: there is some sun. It's been a while since we've 4 00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:14,280 Speaker 1: seen that. And we got a loaded show. There is 5 00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:17,319 Speaker 1: a ton to get to, a ton to get to 6 00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:20,880 Speaker 1: in baseball terms, Eddie, And you tell me if my 7 00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:25,919 Speaker 1: vernacular here is correct. Okay, in baseball terms, if you 8 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 1: are the next guy at bat, you are on deck. Correct, Yes, Now, 9 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 1: I always understood it as you get the guy in 10 00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:33,519 Speaker 1: the on deck circle, then the guy after him is 11 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:34,200 Speaker 1: in the hole. 12 00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:35,400 Speaker 2: Yes, that is right. 13 00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:39,600 Speaker 1: Okay. So we are in the hole of the Big 14 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 1: Ten championship game between Indiana and Ohio State, which is 15 00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:47,480 Speaker 1: a big one, right, yep. Obviously this game on Saturday. 16 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:49,919 Speaker 1: It is not tomorrow, but it is in forty eight 17 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 1: hours and it's a massive, massive game, and we've got 18 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 1: it covered today from a couple of different angles. Rert 19 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 1: lewis going to join it's just a couple of minutes 20 00:00:56,400 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 1: from now from the Big Ten Network to preview that matchup. 21 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:06,160 Speaker 1: And then Tim May, long time scribe writer Columbus Post Dispatch. 22 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:08,919 Speaker 1: He's covered Ohio State for over forty years. Great dude, 23 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 1: very active in covering Indy car as well. But Tim 24 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,119 Speaker 1: going to join us in the one o'clock hour. There's 25 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,399 Speaker 1: Colts News to get to as well. Matt Taylor, voice 26 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 1: of the Colts, joining us on today's show in the 27 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 1: two o'clock hour. Obviously, the Colt's getting set for what's 28 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: been as I think Kevin Bowen described it as the 29 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:32,319 Speaker 1: recurring nightmare for the Colts taking on Jacksonville down in Jacksonville. 30 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 1: That's the big one there. Amp Harri's going to join 31 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,840 Speaker 1: us two o'clock. He's partnering up with Reggie Wayne once again. 32 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:41,479 Speaker 1: Reggie Wayne on the cusp of the Hall of Fame perhaps, 33 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 1: and Amp and Reggie have a big event coming up 34 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway just a couple of weeks 35 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 1: from now, and we will talk about that. Obviously, last 36 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 1: night there were two big things that happened in the 37 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 1: game of basketball, both of them from an Indiana standpoint. 38 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 1: On the short end, Jamal Murray went nuts. 39 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 2: Nuts I think is a underrated term. 40 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 1: I mean that was you know, we always use the 41 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 1: term heat check, right, yeah, And that was a heat 42 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 1: check for him because at one point he was he 43 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 1: was doing the whole like what you know, blowing on 44 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,840 Speaker 1: his hand like my hand is that hot? And Eddie, 45 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: he just kept hitting shot after shot after shot. 46 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 2: The most frustrating part about it, though, Jake, is that 47 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,080 Speaker 2: it's not like a lot of those shots were contested either. 48 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 2: That's what's most frustrating about last night is he goes, 49 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,239 Speaker 2: what ten of eleven on three pointers and you could 50 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 2: probably comfortably say nine of the eleven attempts were wide open. 51 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: I think a lot of that. And yes, I saw 52 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:50,239 Speaker 1: an article today talking about the Pacers and their possibility 53 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 1: of trade deadline stuff that said Indiana, you know, off 54 00:02:53,320 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 1: to a subpar start based on injuries and uninspired play. 55 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: And I don't agree with that second part. I really don't. 56 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: To me, they have, you know, typically, like we saw 57 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 1: last night, they get down like twenty or twenty five, 58 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 1: they do, they come back and then they just kind 59 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: of run out of gas. But I think that yesterday 60 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,519 Speaker 1: what you saw was the true impact of how great 61 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: Jokich is, because you what do you do, Eddie? Do 62 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 1: you double down? You know, if you in order to 63 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,640 Speaker 1: jump out and get on Murray, then you are opening things. 64 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 1: And I get it, you'd rather have a guy shoot 65 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: two than three, Okay, fine, but Jokicic, just in terms 66 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: of the attention you have to give to him, it 67 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 1: is so significant that I don't know what you do elsewhere, 68 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I mean, that's the challenge 69 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: that and if you are Jamal Murray, you love playing 70 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: with that. Right. There was one play last night where 71 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 1: Jokic got a rebound. It was one of the more 72 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 1: and I know that this is like par for the 73 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 1: course for him and why he's a multiple MVP and 74 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 1: the best player in the game and everything else. And 75 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 1: there's nothing I can say about Jokic that hasn't been 76 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 1: said before, just in terms of like the unlikeliest of 77 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 1: dominant basketball players when you look at him. But he 78 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 1: had a play last night where I don't remember who 79 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 1: missed a shot for Indiana, but he got a rebound 80 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,920 Speaker 1: and literally I've never seen anything like this, Like he 81 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:29,119 Speaker 1: one handed rebound, rebounded the ball, but in one motion 82 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: he let the ball fall into his hands and then 83 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:37,280 Speaker 1: he just continued his motion into the most perfect breakaway 84 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 1: dunk pass three quarters the length of the floor. I mean, 85 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 1: it was truly like whoa. It was impressive. I want 86 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 1: to thank by the way Mick Ultra and Zinc distributing 87 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 1: for Last night before the game, I was out at 88 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 1: Binkley's at the corner of Kessler in College. Binkley's is 89 00:04:54,480 --> 00:05:00,160 Speaker 1: awesome and to do the Micultra challenge ultimately the this 90 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 1: is one of many stops that we're going to make 91 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,720 Speaker 1: with Mick Ultra. Come out, do the Papa shot, get 92 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,040 Speaker 1: your score record it high score is going to go 93 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: and watch the Blue and Gold up taking on the 94 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: Milwaukee Bucks in Milwaukee on February sixth, and we're going 95 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,359 Speaker 1: to get that taken care of for you, including a 96 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 1: hotel voucher and gift cards. But Mickultra goes without saying Mickultra, 97 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,720 Speaker 1: that part of that's awesome. But Bankley's in general, and 98 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: I listen, I've been to Minkley's a billion times. But 99 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 1: the job that Courtney's done in Bankley's in the thing 100 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 1: that I loved about it, which makes it again a 101 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 1: continued home away from home. All of the Indianapolis Motor 102 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 1: Speedway in Indy, five hundred photos and memorabilia and tribute 103 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,119 Speaker 1: that they have within Bankley's kind of reminded me of 104 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: the old Union Jack and Speedway, which is no longer there. 105 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,720 Speaker 1: I mean that became like a just a favorite an 106 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 1: mcl in Speedway with the photos and the autographs and 107 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 1: everything else. And that's what you get now at Bankley's. 108 00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:59,720 Speaker 1: Two different private rooms. One of them is kind of 109 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 1: des to look like just a tribute room to the 110 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 1: Borg Warner and the Indianapolis Molter Speedway. But a lot 111 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: of fun yesterday at Bingley's and appreciate them having us out. 112 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: All right, let's get to it talking about before we 113 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: get to Indiana. On the college side of things. Last 114 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: night in Minnesota. I know, people, what did I say, Eddie. 115 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 1: I've said before, and I think I said it like 116 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,719 Speaker 1: a week ago. Excuse me. The way Indiana can shoot 117 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: the basketball talking about AU, they are going to win 118 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 1: games based on that. But when you are that reliant 119 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:31,720 Speaker 1: on your outside shot, sometimes you're gonna have off nights. 120 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: And I think I even said this is a team 121 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: that probably could beat a Kentucky, but at the same 122 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 1: time turnaround and lose to a Minnesota. I think Minnesota 123 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: is the team that I used, and last night that's 124 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: what we saw. We will get into that over the 125 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 1: course of today, but I want to get right into 126 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 1: the College Football Big Ten Championship game again Indiana Ohio 127 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,040 Speaker 1: State Saturday, Lucas Oil Stadium.

This might be the most remarkable 165 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 1: story in college football history. And I know that that 166 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 1: sounds like homers and hyperbody, but we're talking about the 167 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:49,960 Speaker 1: program that has lost more games than anybody in Division 168 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 1: one heading into this year, that has now within the 169 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 1: form of two years, turned itself into the upper echelon 170 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: elite power. It truly is remarkable. 171 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 5: No, Jake, I mean like it's it's it's I don't 172 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:05,959 Speaker 5: think that's hyperbole. 173 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:06,959 Speaker 3: I think it's true. 174 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 5: And like the more that I've you know, been around 175 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 5: and you know, listen to other people talk about it, 176 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 5: like other people are saying the same things, not just 177 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 5: in the enough hands, it is truly remarkable, and I 178 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 5: think it goes to show, like I think it's a 179 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 5: great a great lesson, you know, for coaches like kurtz Signetti, 180 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 5: who better on himself and who had a plan and 181 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 5: a belief in his plan and worked his plan, and 182 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 5: he's got a blueprint for success. Here are the other things. 183 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 5: He's a great evaluator, he's a great developer, and those 184 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 5: two things are lost in this world of hey, come here, 185 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 5: we're gonna give you the most money. You know, come here, 186 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 5: you know this, You're gonna get this car in this house, 187 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 5: whereas he has a more matter of fact approach where 188 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 5: it's like, look, I am recruiting you because I believe 189 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 5: that you can help us win at the highest level. 190 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 5: And he's done that. Like I mean, like I can't 191 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 5: even count the I can't even think of like a 192 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 5: lost in the portal, you know, where He's brought guys 193 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 5: in and has it really worked out. Almost every single 194 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 5: one of them has been a contributor to this team 195 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 5: in a big way. 196 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 1: Do you believe rhet that a bigger Let me ask 197 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 1: you this, Kurt Signetti in his coaching style and what 198 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 1: he has done with this team. Are they winning because 199 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 1: if you had to pick one versus the other, is 200 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:28,680 Speaker 1: it more so because Kurt Signetti has tapped into each 201 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 1: Indiana player in believing and understanding what they can do. 202 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:36,559 Speaker 1: Or is Kurt Signetti letting his team know what the 203 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 1: opposition is going to do and that preparation is why 204 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 1: they're winning. 205 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 3: I think it's a little bit of both. 206 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 5: And I don't mean that as a compout, but I 207 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 5: do think that one of the other pieces of Kurt's 208 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 5: success is messaging. He reaches these players and in a 209 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 5: way that I think is elite college football. 210 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:01,079 Speaker 6: Now. 211 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 5: He doesn't do it with the flash and the pizzazz 212 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:06,680 Speaker 5: of you know, a guy like Dan Lanning, who I 213 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 5: respect very much, or a guy like Kirby Smart who's gonna, 214 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:12,599 Speaker 5: you know, you know, rile you up with volume and 215 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,959 Speaker 5: with all that stuff, but like he does it very 216 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 5: matter of factly. This is what it takes to win. Remember, 217 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 5: I know how to win. All we've done here is win. 218 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:25,679 Speaker 5: You do these things, we are going to win. I 219 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 5: just think that so many coaches talk about, hey man, 220 00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 5: we really need a win to validate what we're saying. 221 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 5: That's not a problem for Kurt Signety's Indiana. He has 222 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 5: done that, and he did it from the start, and 223 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 5: I think that's that's such a huge piece of this thing, 224 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,440 Speaker 5: the messaging that he has. I asked Mike Kadik about this. 225 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,559 Speaker 5: He was on one of the other shows I knew, 226 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 5: Big Red Carpet with me and we were just talking 227 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 5: about you know what Kurt Signetty's like, you know, behind 228 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 5: closed doors and team meetings, and he's like, look, it's 229 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,560 Speaker 5: it's simple. It's short, and it's sweet. Like they do 230 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,440 Speaker 5: not have our long team meetings where he's you know, 231 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 5: pulling up all these you know, like motivational things you 232 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 5: know from movies and all this other stuff. I mean 233 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 5: like that stuffs great and it's fine, and you do 234 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 5: what you can to reach your team. But like he 235 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 5: gets in, he gets out, he says the message, and 236 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 5: they believe it and then they go execute it. 237 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 3: It's that simple. 238 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,440 Speaker 1: What is the biggest challenge they face? Ohio State offers 239 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,959 Speaker 1: challenges all over the place, right, So I guess I'll 240 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:21,680 Speaker 1: ask it this way. I mean, we know that Ohio 241 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,839 Speaker 1: State defensively is the elite of the elite. I love 242 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 1: sure the receiving core for Ohio State. What is a 243 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 1: strength of Ohio State that Indiana actually may be able 244 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 1: to counter an offset the run game? 245 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 5: Their run game has gotten better. I mean, we're talking 246 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 5: about a player in Bo Jackson who had a career 247 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 5: high in rushing. It's a freshman player right running backs 248 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 5: for Ohio State a career high in rushing against Michigan. 249 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 5: Yet he didn't have a carry against Texas in Week one. 250 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 5: So like Indiana, they get better throughout the year. That's 251 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 5: also been a hallmark of the Kurtz signety teams these 252 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 5: last two years. They get better and they improve during 253 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:03,079 Speaker 5: the season. People I think feel like improvement stops at 254 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 5: fall camp. 255 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 3: Right, it doesn't. They get better as as the season 256 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:07,839 Speaker 3: goes on too. 257 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 5: So Bo Jackson is a guy that represents that to me. 258 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 5: For Ohio State and their run game and their offensive 259 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 5: line maybe had their best game against Michigan. Now Indiana, 260 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 5: the two things that Indiana's defense has been really good 261 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 5: at is rushing the passer and stopping the run. Now, 262 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 5: the thing where the receivers get, you know, go crazy 263 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 5: Jeremiah Smith and Carnell Tate is when they can also 264 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 5: run it and you're pulling guys in to stop the 265 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 5: run in ways that you wouldn't like to and you're 266 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 5: opening up those explosive plays down the field for those 267 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 5: two alien receivers in Carnel Tate and Jeremiah Smith. But 268 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 5: if you can stop the run, you have a better 269 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 5: chance at dealing with the pass. You're not gonna You're 270 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 5: not going to shut out Jeremiah Smith and Carneal Tate, 271 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 5: but you can hope to contain them by not letting them, 272 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 5: you know, bang their head on the goalpost and beat 273 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:54,840 Speaker 5: you over the top. And the way you do that 274 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 5: is by stopping the run by not committing more defenders 275 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:00,319 Speaker 5: than you're comfortable with it. 276 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 1: Rtt lewis my guests from the Big Ten Network, Joba House, Peel, 277 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: and poor guest Line. By the way. Bo Jackson the 278 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: running back for Ohio State for those that are curious, 279 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 1: not related to the famous Bo Jackson. His real name 280 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 1: is Lamar Jackson also not related to Lamar Jackson to 281 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 1: Wincton seriously, but I'm curious about this from Indiana's standpoint. 282 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 1: You know, fren Da Mendoza, we have seen what he 283 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 1: has been able to do this year, in particular in 284 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 1: responding to drives that didn't go well. But Ohio State defensively, 285 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 1: they can get to the quarterback. But how are they 286 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 1: in terms of secondary? I know they have good safety play. 287 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 1: Are there areas that Indiana can exploit? Yeah? 288 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 5: I think so, And I'm Caleb Downs. Obviously, it's the 289 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:48,720 Speaker 5: defensive player of the year in the conference. Rville Reese 290 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 5: is the linebacker. They had the linebacker of the year, 291 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 5: the defensive player of the year, and the defensive lineman 292 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 5: of the year. And Kate McDonald, the first round pick, 293 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 5: is a defensive lineman nose tackle. So like there's players 294 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 5: at every level. But when you're talking about the secondary, 295 00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 5: Davis s Nigbuinosen is there, you know, their best corner 296 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 5: and he ended up coming back to Ohio State, I 297 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 5: think in large part because he had some technique stuff 298 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 5: to really iron out before he goes to the league. 299 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 5: One of those was his tendency to draw a out 300 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 5: of flags. He gets a little handy out there holding flags. 301 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 5: P I calls that sort of stuff. He's been better 302 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 5: at that this year, but that's still out there, right, 303 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 5: And if you know, I think those back shoulder throws 304 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 5: that Fernando and Elijah Surratt have perfected over the course 305 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 5: of this season, I think present opportunities, you know, not 306 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 5: only for Indiana to work the ball down the field, 307 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 5: but to draw penalty calls because those are really hard 308 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 5: up defenders. So that's one area. Another area is Omar Cooper. 309 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 5: You know, great example of the best in Indiana play 310 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 5: for Indiana, right, you know, get a chance to play 311 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 5: in Indianapolis for a Big ten championship game was just 312 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 5: so cool for so many of the value guys that 313 00:15:56,040 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 5: come from Indy. But he is one of the best 314 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 5: players in the country. With the ball in his hands. 315 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 5: The first guy in rarely gets Omar Cooper to the ground. 316 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 5: He is like the yack god yards after catch, and 317 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 5: so I think getting him the ball quickly in space 318 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 5: and some of those RPO slant routes, some of those 319 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 5: other RPO short short throws that you know, all right, 320 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 5: don't like the run, Let's get it out of Fernando's 321 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 5: hand quickly. I think those are the plays where Indiana 322 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 5: is going to find some some success as well against 323 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 5: Ohio State. 324 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 1: I want to get to quickly rep before we let 325 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: you go. Two questions about psychology. Okay, I mean you 326 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 1: played the game, Rett Lewis, Bigton Edwick, you played at Indiana, 327 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 1: You played the game. You've been around it. Your dad 328 00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 1: was a trainer. You know, you've been around the game 329 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 1: a long time. Julian Sayan is a young player. Obviously 330 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 1: a phenomenal talent at quarterback for Ohio State and probably 331 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 1: along with Mendoza A and B whichever you want to 332 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 1: look at it, for the heisman. But he's a young player. 333 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 1: Has he seen the kind of adversity this year that 334 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 1: do we know how he would respond if Indiana is 335 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 1: able to get to him early. I'm not saying Indiana's 336 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: gonna be able to do that, but if you get him, 337 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 1: I'm uncomfortable. How do you feel that he responds or 338 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:05,680 Speaker 1: does youth finally show itself? 339 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 5: You know, I think there's there's a couple of There 340 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 5: is some thought there for sure. Now, I think on 341 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:14,879 Speaker 5: the surface, you look at a player who's played in 342 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 5: twelve games and started twelve games in his career, and 343 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 5: you're like, yeah, we can affect this guy mentally. 344 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 3: He is really sharp. 345 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,640 Speaker 5: He does understand and see things that defenses are doing 346 00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 5: to try to attack him. I think the one thing 347 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 5: that helps him is that he faced some of that 348 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:30,440 Speaker 5: adversity early against Michigan. 349 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 3: They were down. 350 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 5: He threw a pick on the second play of the game, 351 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,120 Speaker 5: and you know they got down early. But he worked 352 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 5: his way back and had two of the best throwers 353 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 5: of the season on touchdowns to Jeremiah Smith and the 354 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 5: Carnel Tate. So he can work his way back from it. 355 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,159 Speaker 5: The thing that I'm kind of interested in, and I 356 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,639 Speaker 5: think again, seeing Wink Martindale's defense probably helps him a 357 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 5: little bit, But I don't think he's seen a defense 358 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,119 Speaker 5: the way that Brian Haynes, a defense coordinator. Iye, you 359 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,679 Speaker 5: will try to attack him with the different looks, the 360 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:02,400 Speaker 5: different personnel groupings he can send out there, the way 361 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 5: that he can manipulate coverage at the snap of the ball, 362 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 5: the way that he can find simulated pressures. 363 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 3: They do that as good as. 364 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:12,199 Speaker 5: Anybody in the country, and in a way that they 365 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 5: can just they can bring pressure and wreak havoc and 366 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 5: just make him second guess what he's seeing and then 367 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 5: getting the pressure behind it to take advantage of the 368 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 5: ball staying in his hand a little bit longer. That's 369 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 5: the part I'm more concerned with. I think this dude's 370 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 5: a high level competitor, So I'm not necessarily worried in 371 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 5: the stage being big for him in the moment, being 372 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 5: big for him in some of that kind of thing 373 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:37,160 Speaker 5: and some of that adversity, but actually in the landscape 374 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:40,160 Speaker 5: of trying to deal with Indiana's defense is where I'm 375 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:41,840 Speaker 5: curious to see how he performs. 376 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 1: Okay, lastly, rhet this game in reality and I know 377 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:47,639 Speaker 1: what it means for fans. I know certainly what it 378 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:51,960 Speaker 1: means for Indiana symbolically, but the reality is it is 379 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,679 Speaker 1: a championship game for the conference. I get it. But 380 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 1: it is still kind of Christmas Eve because for both 381 00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 1: of these teams there is the bigger prize down the road, 382 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 1: right in terms of the college football Playoff. The psychology 383 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 1: of it, whether one of these two teams has blown out, 384 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,359 Speaker 1: whether one went you know, whatever it may be, is 385 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:14,959 Speaker 1: it difficult good or bad? As a college football player 386 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,359 Speaker 1: and a young player to then put the result or 387 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 1: the happen in this game aside, to be able to 388 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,640 Speaker 1: then turn around into a new tournament that will wait 389 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 1: you beyond it. 390 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, I do think that Indiana is going to be 391 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 5: fine regardless of outcome. I think both teams, whoever wins 392 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 5: and whoever loses, I think both teams still get to 393 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 5: buy and I think they've earned it. And it would 394 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 5: be crazy to me if they If either one of 395 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 5: these teams with a loss in the championship game falls 396 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 5: out of the top four, that would be crazy. But 397 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 5: I think Indiana is equipped to deal with whatever the 398 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 5: outcome is and to compartmentalize it, to dismiss it, and 399 00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,879 Speaker 5: then to move on. And I think that's kind of 400 00:19:59,880 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 5: just in their mantra, you know, all year long, right 401 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 5: like they've done it. You know, after the after the 402 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,159 Speaker 5: Organ game, they figured out a way to do it, 403 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,960 Speaker 5: right coming off the win against Penn State, they figured 404 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 5: out how to do it like those those big emotional 405 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:14,639 Speaker 5: wins like they have. They have been on the roller 406 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:18,679 Speaker 5: coaster this year, but you know they've kind of just 407 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 5: been navigating it with just like an even keel mentality 408 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:26,119 Speaker 5: and just kind of a low bred low blood pressure mentality. 409 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 5: So like, I think they're going to be fine regardless. 410 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 5: I think the thing that will go crazy is the exterior, 411 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:36,119 Speaker 5: you know, the external perception of Indiana. You know these 412 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,880 Speaker 5: by by ten points. It's like, oh, they never should 413 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:44,400 Speaker 5: have belonged here. They don't they don't belong in the play. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 414 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:46,880 Speaker 5: So like I think they don't care about that stuff, honestly. 415 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 5: I mean, you know, you and I can talk about it, 416 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:50,160 Speaker 5: you know it till we're blue in the face, of course. 417 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 1: Rhett, I appreciate the time as always. I know it's 418 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,639 Speaker 1: a busy time, it truly is. And I know, listen, 419 00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 1: I get it. There's got to be an objectivity there 420 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:01,120 Speaker 1: as well. But at the same time as somebody that 421 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,359 Speaker 1: that wore that uniform, I know there's got to be 422 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 1: an element of pride and excitement as well. I certainly 423 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:06,119 Speaker 1: appreciate it. 424 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, you got it, man, Thanks for having me to 425 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 5: take any time. 426 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 1: Bud, appreciate it. Rhet lewis joining us on the Java 427 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:14,640 Speaker 1: House Peel and poor Guest line. And that's the thing 428 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,679 Speaker 1: that you know, either way, I mean, if Indiana wins, 429 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 1: then you say to yourself like okay, but you got 430 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 1: to make sure that in Signetti does theory, you know, 431 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 1: certainly it appears as though he's as good as anybody. 432 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: And then bringing it back the Oregon game, as he 433 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 1: just mentioned, you beat Oregon and then I think it 434 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 1: was the Iowa game right after that, or I can't 435 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:36,199 Speaker 1: remember which game it was right after that, but they 436 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 1: they did not slip up, right was it was? It 437 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,439 Speaker 1: was Iowa? Yeah, and you know they're they're down and 438 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 1: you're thinking like, oh gosh, and then boom, they find 439 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 1: a way to win that game. They re they refocused, 440 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 1: they re channeled their focus. What's that? 441 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:53,679 Speaker 2: Which game is the bigger Heisman moment? That that Iowa 442 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:55,439 Speaker 2: driving the Penn State. It's got to be the Pen 443 00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 2: state driver state because that was also on national tell 444 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:02,360 Speaker 2: you know what I mean, like over the over, that 445 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:04,639 Speaker 2: was on Every game's on national television, get that, but 446 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 2: that was big time network television. Yeah, and you have 447 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:09,959 Speaker 2: Guess Johnson making that call of you know, give him 448 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 2: the Heisman, et cetera. 449 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 1: But good question for sure. But the other aspect is 450 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,199 Speaker 1: if they were to and I'm not saying it's going 451 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:19,399 Speaker 1: to be the case, if they were to Indiana get 452 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:21,360 Speaker 1: blown out, in this game. And Ohio State you heard 453 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 1: Graham ray Hill mentioning yesterday, you know Ohio State has 454 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:26,400 Speaker 1: that ability. In that Penn State game, twenty one points 455 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:28,639 Speaker 1: in five minutes just boomed. Turn it up into a 456 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 1: fourth gear if it gets away from Indiana. And I'm 457 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 1: not saying that's going to happen, don't misquote me. But 458 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 1: if it does, does that psychologically knock them back now 459 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: into a gosh? Maybe the hype is right. Do you 460 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,160 Speaker 1: have a PTSD over the Notre Dame game or Ohio 461 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 1: State from a year ago? I don't think so. But 462 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 1: you still have to then turn around and get set 463 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:55,399 Speaker 1: for the college football playoff, which is right there. I 464 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,000 Speaker 1: mentioned last night. I you did not shoot the ball 465 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 1: well in Minnesota. Minnesota has always been a tough place 466 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 1: to play, but it does take a win a little 467 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 1: bit out of the sales of what And I think 468 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:13,159 Speaker 1: people are still super hyped about the two step on 469 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 1: Saturday because you have the Big Ten championship game and 470 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 1: then you've got Indiana Louisville beforehand. But it would have 471 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 1: meant a little more, admittedly if Indiana was still unbeaten. 472 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 1: But nonetheless, they fall last night and this is what 473 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: happens when you have teams that are so dynamic in 474 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:35,639 Speaker 1: terms of quick barrage shooting. And we've talked about Indiana's offense, 475 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:41,239 Speaker 1: their ability to come down get a quick three if 476 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:44,639 Speaker 1: it's not there, then immediately back up and move the 477 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 1: ball around with very good spacing and ball movement. But 478 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 1: when you are reliant on outside shooting primarily as part 479 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 1: of your offense, you're just gonna have nights where it 480 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 1: becomes contagious where the ball didn't drop and we saw 481 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,359 Speaker 1: it last night. Tucker Devez did not shoot the ball well, 482 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 1: Wilkerson did not shoot the ball well. You know, when 483 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 1: you force Minnesota into sixteen turnovers and you get twenty 484 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:09,119 Speaker 1: two points off turnovers and you still lose, that shows 485 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 1: that offensively in your sets you were not efficient. And 486 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 1: that's exactly what happened last night. Look, I think this 487 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 1: Indiana team is going to be fine, but there are 488 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 1: going to be not and that's not gonna be the 489 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:22,679 Speaker 1: first one. There's gonna be another one where we talk 490 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 1: about it and we're like, man, what happened last night 491 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 1: in Rutgers or whatever it might be, Because that's the 492 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,159 Speaker 1: reality of that style of play and reliance on it. 493 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,879 Speaker 1: On the other hand, from the Pacers last night, I 494 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: looked up at one point, I'm like, they're down twenty four. 495 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:39,480 Speaker 1: It got away quickly, got away quickly. And that might 496 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:41,680 Speaker 1: tell us as much about Denver as it does Indiana. 497 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:46,400 Speaker 1: But usually you say twenty five games to give yourself 498 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:49,640 Speaker 1: an idea who a team is and where a team's going. 499 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 1: I think we now have a pretty good idea what 500 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 1: this year is going to look like overall in totality 501 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 1: for Indiana. So meaning the Pacers, So where do they 502 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 1: go from there? Tony east Side talking about exactly that. 503 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 1: Before we get to Tony east Eddie, if you could 504 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 1: please the breaking new sounder. This just Jen, I'm actually 505 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 1: reading this from our friends at WTCHR. The Marian University 506 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,679 Speaker 1: Knights are ending their season just two days before a 507 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:24,639 Speaker 1: playoff game against Kaiser University on Thursday, December fourth, that 508 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:28,640 Speaker 1: would be today, The university said, and academically, an eligible 509 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:31,480 Speaker 1: student athlete had played in three games for the team. 510 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 1: The Naia withdrew the program from the Football Championship Series 511 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:41,680 Speaker 1: over the Discovery quote. We sincerely apologize to Kaiser University. 512 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 1: The Naia are student athletes and the Marian community that 513 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 1: we cannot continue our season, said Steve Downing, Marion's director 514 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:52,399 Speaker 1: of athletics, of course, the former Indiana basketball star. This 515 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:55,679 Speaker 1: is a disappointing outcome for everyone involved. We regret the 516 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 1: disruption it causes and are taking immediate steps to address 517 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 1: the root causes. End quote. So Marion, who had won 518 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 1: and of course coach Karris joined us to preview that 519 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:10,680 Speaker 1: game last week in their college football playoff, now terminating 520 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 1: their season and their quest for a national championship will 521 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 1: not continue, all right, joining us now to talk about 522 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:21,919 Speaker 1: what happened last night at gamebridge Field House, Tony east On, 523 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:25,439 Speaker 1: the Java House, Peel and poor guest line Tony. I'm 524 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 1: going to begin with us as opposed to getting into 525 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:30,359 Speaker 1: the nuances of you know, Jamal Murray, like just hit 526 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 1: another three, that kind of thing. When do you believe 527 00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 1: or do you have an idea where we are in 528 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:45,120 Speaker 1: terms of the Pacers and just kind of determining the 529 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 1: direction of the season in terms of personnel, pursuit of 530 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:54,159 Speaker 1: trying to get things righted versus just accepting the reality 531 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 1: of long term like do you think we're there? Do 532 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 1: you think they are now at the point where they're like, 533 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 1: look it's a wash. 534 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, look they're they're four and eighteens. 535 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 8: I like thee So the Pelicans in twenty twenty one 536 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 8: twenty two started two or three and sixteen, they made 537 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 8: the play in and then made the playoffs. Plan the 538 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:18,680 Speaker 8: nineteen eighty four eighty five Cavs started two to nineteen 539 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 8: and they made the playoffs. So that's about all the 540 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 8: examples I could find of team starting this bad and 541 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:28,399 Speaker 8: making it. That's two and what I can't do massa earlier. 542 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,200 Speaker 1: The reality is they Tony, And I don't mean to 543 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:34,359 Speaker 1: cut you off there, because that's my point is it 544 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 1: is very easy to look at it and say, well, 545 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:39,679 Speaker 1: you got no Obi Toppin, you got no aaron Ne Smith, 546 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 1: You've got you know, you've you have Haliburt, et cetera. 547 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: Do they are you? Do you believe that they are 548 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:50,359 Speaker 1: still looking at Okay, once we get everybody back, here's 549 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:53,199 Speaker 1: where we are, or is this now already at the 550 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:57,440 Speaker 1: point of let's play out the schedule and and then 551 00:27:57,600 --> 00:27:59,879 Speaker 1: next year we regroup and we have a chance to 552 00:27:59,880 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 1: find out who and what we are. 553 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 8: Yeah, you know, next year you don't want to be 554 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:06,920 Speaker 8: doing any finding out right, you'd like to be hit 555 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,400 Speaker 8: the ground running right away. Right, That's what I think 556 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:10,640 Speaker 8: will be interesting about. 557 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 6: I'll I'll make this up, but you know, maybe the. 558 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:16,639 Speaker 8: Next six weeks right till January fifteenth, when everybody can 559 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:19,320 Speaker 8: be traded. Like, if you're the Pacers, you have to 560 00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 8: toggle all of what you're talking about, which is finding 561 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:25,960 Speaker 8: out stuff and keeping track at your record and development 562 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 8: and all that. 563 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:29,439 Speaker 6: But how like, what are you actually learning without some 564 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,120 Speaker 6: of these guys. You know, they they won a couple 565 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 6: of games last week and they beat that. They won 566 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 6: that Horns game and. 567 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 9: Jay help was really good. 568 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 8: And they found this lineup with McConnell and huff around, 569 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 8: Siakam and Matherin and them hard and that's great. 570 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 6: And then you know, I see a lot of comments 571 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 6: that are like, oh. 572 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 8: They won, and I get that. I get why people 573 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:49,920 Speaker 8: want them to lose. Like I'm not saying that they're 574 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 8: dumb or anything, but it's like that should be the 575 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 8: point of this season is finding lineups like that, right 576 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 8: that do work and next year when you're trying to win, 577 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 8: you know, okay, even when Halberd's on the game, we 578 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 8: can turn to that combo of five or oh, look 579 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 8: like last night Ben Shephard with some spry drives and 580 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 8: good defense. 581 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 6: Okay, what happened in that game? 582 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 8: And what did we learn about how we can make 583 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 8: that happen more often? Hey, maybe Garrison Matthews is the 584 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 8: dude on his second ten night instead of his first one. 585 00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 8: So it's interesting because learning all that stuff I just 586 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 8: said is easier or more valuable information if they're doing 587 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 8: it next to the other good players. Right, if you 588 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 8: learn how to use Shephard alongside Siakam, that's very important 589 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 8: for next season, But that does come at it like 590 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 8: you're playing Siakam a lot, and they shouldn't be at 591 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 8: his long term future. 592 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 6: So all that to say, for the next like four 593 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:41,200 Speaker 6: six weeks. 594 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:44,120 Speaker 8: I think that they should continue to just keep doing 595 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 8: what they've been doing, if that makes any sense, because 596 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 8: people keep saying like, oh, they got to start tanking 597 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 8: that they have four wins. You want to have a 598 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,160 Speaker 8: negative win, like they're not doing anything well at. 599 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:54,479 Speaker 6: The moment in terms of winning games. 600 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 8: But I do think they need to learn what works 601 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 8: and to do that, you kind of keep going with 602 00:29:59,080 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 8: what you have. 603 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 6: As you get healthier, you learn some stuff. 604 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 8: Maybe you'll never have top in with your top guys 605 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 8: this season because his return will be really close to 606 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 8: the trade deadline. But you know, outside of that, I 607 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 8: think at some point you have to make a clear 608 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:11,880 Speaker 8: goal chain shift. 609 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 6: But the record is so poor at the moment, it's 610 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 6: not even really. 611 00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 8: Costing them to keep doing what they're doing and trying 612 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 8: to learn because they're still so close to the bottom 613 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 8: of the standings. 614 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,120 Speaker 1: Tony, I came up with a phrase the other day. 615 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 1: I'm very proud of this, okay, and you can use it. 616 00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 1: It's fine, and this is not like why not Indiana, 617 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 1: which I trademark. You can use this phrase. So I 618 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 1: have nicknames for two kinds of players, and I think 619 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 1: you've heard the first one before. I've said it ten 620 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 1: thousand times on the radio. A twenty twenty five guy. 621 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 1: You've heard me mention a twenty twenty five guy, right. 622 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 1: Do you know what that is? 623 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:41,840 Speaker 4: Yes? 624 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, guys, twenty points per game on twenty five win teams. 625 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 1: The newest that I've come up with, and it's applicable 626 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 1: this year are empty calorie guys. Now empty calorie guys. 627 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 1: Let me explain. Are guys like you're on the road. 628 00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:57,600 Speaker 1: You're on a road trip and you got to get 629 00:30:57,600 --> 00:30:59,840 Speaker 1: your starving. So you stop in a convenience store and 630 00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 1: you just get like three bags of chips and a 631 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:05,320 Speaker 1: beef jerkey. Those are empty calories. You got to eat something, 632 00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 1: but the calories are offering you no long term you 633 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:12,239 Speaker 1: know nutrition. Empty calorie guys are guys that are going 634 00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:14,000 Speaker 1: out there and they're eating up minutes and they're filling 635 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 1: a roster spot for you and they're getting you points, 636 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:20,240 Speaker 1: but they really don't have any benefit towards your long 637 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 1: term vision. Okay, give me two guys right now. And 638 00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 1: maybe the pacers are figuring out and evaluating who through 639 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 1: this process and through ten day contracts and one year 640 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:37,480 Speaker 1: deals and whatever else, you know, they're figuring out, Okay, 641 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 1: who can we keep here that becomes a thirteenth man 642 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,440 Speaker 1: for us? And who are empty calorie guys that are 643 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,880 Speaker 1: just eating mists? Where do you draw the line in 644 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 1: terms of the guys that we've seen and the field 645 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 1: that you get as to which side each is on? 646 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 8: Yeah, that's the goal of that's what you're trying to 647 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:57,840 Speaker 8: figure out, right, And like this will sign on the 648 00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:00,719 Speaker 8: hilarious to say, because it's December fourth, that's why I 649 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 8: asked her Carli last night about Garrison Matthews and Jeremiah 650 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:07,000 Speaker 8: Robinson rroal, Like, I'm not even necessarily certain either of 651 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 8: them are in the short term more long term plans 652 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 8: of the Placers. But Jeremia Robinsonureld's twenty five and started 653 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:15,240 Speaker 8: games for them this year. They clearly think something of him. 654 00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 8: And Garrison Matthews these last two games has been like, oh, 655 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:21,240 Speaker 8: I this guy can make everything sometimes, but he's twenty nine. 656 00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:22,920 Speaker 6: Like is he what you're describing? 657 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:24,720 Speaker 8: Is he just a guy who's on this team and 658 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:26,600 Speaker 8: his scoring points and they don't win at all and 659 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 8: it doesn't matter, or is he actually somebody that when 660 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 8: they're good, they'd run a round right, And so it 661 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 8: sounds like such micro decisions, but to them it matters, 662 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:36,600 Speaker 8: and we can call them a thirteenth man or whatever. 663 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 8: But like you know, Ben Shepperd's not playing well this year, 664 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 8: although he's had a good last five or so games. 665 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 6: He was in their playoff rotation last year. 666 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 8: That's what makes this such a hard evaluation for all 667 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 8: these guys, is like it's the worst possible way. 668 00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:50,880 Speaker 6: To evaluate them with how many. 669 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 8: Guys are out and how different their roles are from 670 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,240 Speaker 8: typical seasons where we know we've seen it twice two 671 00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 8: playoffs that Ben Shepherd has made thirty eight percent of 672 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 8: his threes and guards and been a fifteen to twelve 673 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:05,280 Speaker 8: minute a game guy on a good winning playoff team. 674 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 6: But on this team, when he's asked. 675 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:09,320 Speaker 8: To do a lot more, he probably looks a little 676 00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 8: bit more like an empty. 677 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 6: Salaries guy who's turning it over much. 678 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:14,600 Speaker 8: More than he has in the past, and his three 679 00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 8: ball hasn't fallen really at all this year, so it's 680 00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:19,280 Speaker 8: like for him, it's probably super frustrating, and if you're 681 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 8: a fan, you're thinking, why is this guy playing well? 682 00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 6: It's like, because he's. 683 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 8: Way better when the team is better, right, He just 684 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 8: the things he provides naturally fit better on a good team, 685 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 8: which is why it's hard to know what is the 686 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 8: line of demarcation for empty calories and why they're so 687 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 8: you know, like focused on development and making guys get 688 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,240 Speaker 8: better at lots of skills this season if they can, 689 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 8: because they need to figure that out in any way 690 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 8: that they actually can, which is again why I think 691 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 8: that they should keep trying to play their better players 692 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 8: for at least some more amount of time, like real 693 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:48,920 Speaker 8: minutes and try to push for something serious. 694 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:50,440 Speaker 6: But you know, the swath of. 695 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,360 Speaker 8: Guys who you know, everybody knows who is like real 696 00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:54,200 Speaker 8: on this team. 697 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 6: Like if you were in the play af rotation last year, yeah, 698 00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 6: got it, but you. 699 00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 8: Know this Walker, Furfee, Robinson, Earl Matthews quartet, plus their centers. 700 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:05,920 Speaker 8: I mean, Jay Huff's been good of late, although he 701 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 8: struggled last night. Isadd Jackson had a Nightmares matchup. All 702 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:12,239 Speaker 8: those guys have shown something for the Pacers before and 703 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:14,400 Speaker 8: except for Huff, you know, and in most cases for 704 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:16,879 Speaker 8: some of those guys in the postseason, you know what 705 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:19,440 Speaker 8: they are kind of all jockeying, I think to be 706 00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 8: the guys eight through twelve on. 707 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:23,759 Speaker 6: The next Pacers team. And so they're kind of. 708 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 8: The guys to keep an eye on when it comes 709 00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:27,200 Speaker 8: to that, are they scoring a lot right now and 710 00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:29,840 Speaker 8: showing you something more because the Pacers are bad, or 711 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 8: are they doing something more because they're actually showing improvement 712 00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:35,439 Speaker 8: that could land them a key role on the next 713 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:37,680 Speaker 8: team that we've seen in you know, in Jackson's case 714 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:39,600 Speaker 8: and Shepherd's case a little bit in Rokers case. In 715 00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 8: the past, Matthews has played on some playoff teams, right 716 00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 8: that they can. 717 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:45,440 Speaker 6: Do or is this just a reality of the situation. 718 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:47,480 Speaker 8: It's really hard to find what that answer is on 719 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:50,279 Speaker 8: this team because everybody's role is so different than what 720 00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 8: it was or is when this team is supposed to 721 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:52,319 Speaker 8: be good. 722 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:56,400 Speaker 1: Tony the guy that to me has been enigmatic because 723 00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:58,800 Speaker 1: I feel like you are still trying to and I 724 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:02,919 Speaker 1: mean you, Tony, I'm saying we in Populace. We're trying 725 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:06,760 Speaker 1: to figure out if Jaris Walker can either be benefit 726 00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,440 Speaker 1: to Indiana in terms of bringing something on the floor 727 00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:12,239 Speaker 1: or be benefit to Indiana because he's intriguing enough that 728 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:14,880 Speaker 1: somebody will trade for him. And I feel like he 729 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 1: has yet to break through and cement either where do 730 00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 1: you see him in terms of what his value is 731 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 1: or will be? 732 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:26,879 Speaker 8: Yeah, what's I don't remember what movie or the thing 733 00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:27,160 Speaker 8: is from? 734 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:28,359 Speaker 6: But what's the just one? 735 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 8: You think you're out? They pulled me back in right? 736 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:34,040 Speaker 8: Whatever that's from? Like, he was awesome a couple weeks ago. 737 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 8: He had that amazing game against Detroit, followed up with 738 00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:40,200 Speaker 8: a good shooting game, has had some really nice rebounding 739 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:40,879 Speaker 8: games of late. 740 00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:42,280 Speaker 6: You know, last night it felt quiet. 741 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:43,719 Speaker 8: I walked away like I didn't really feel like I 742 00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 8: felt Jaris Walker's impact as much. Need eleven points and 743 00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 8: three boards in twenty one minutes and made four of 744 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:50,440 Speaker 8: a seven shots. Like that's a good night, right, That's 745 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:52,560 Speaker 8: a quality performance from a young player. It's not like, 746 00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:54,960 Speaker 8: you know, oh my gosh, this this guy's gonna be awesome. 747 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:57,320 Speaker 8: But he also had some real stinkers, right, no doubt 748 00:35:57,719 --> 00:35:59,440 Speaker 8: over ten two for nine to one for eight. That 749 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:01,440 Speaker 8: was three games in a row for him to end 750 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:03,560 Speaker 8: that road trip where the Pacers were just awful. Right, 751 00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:06,839 Speaker 8: So it's really been and this is true a lot 752 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 8: of young players, he's just been really inconsistent, and that 753 00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:13,080 Speaker 8: is the hopeful next step for the Pacers and determining, 754 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 8: excuse me, what his role could be for them if 755 00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:18,200 Speaker 8: if he is playing for them when they're you know, 756 00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:19,400 Speaker 8: trying to win next year. 757 00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:21,240 Speaker 6: Is like how can they get to be more consistent? 758 00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:22,600 Speaker 6: Because this happened last year too. 759 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,480 Speaker 8: I just stolen him in late December of last season, 760 00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:27,759 Speaker 8: and he even talked about like, yeah, this season has 761 00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:29,560 Speaker 8: been up and down for me, And I've referenced that 762 00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:31,360 Speaker 8: a million times because he said it and like he 763 00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:33,359 Speaker 8: knew he was being inconsistent. 764 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:34,680 Speaker 6: I think he felt that way about. 765 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:37,239 Speaker 8: This season too, and then from I don't know, mid 766 00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:40,160 Speaker 8: January onwards, his role was a little different and smaller, 767 00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:42,440 Speaker 8: but he was playing every night and playing largely pretty 768 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:44,040 Speaker 8: well when he was playing in the playoffs until he 769 00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:44,919 Speaker 8: got hurt in. 770 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:46,200 Speaker 6: Game six against the Knicks. 771 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:48,919 Speaker 8: So they do have like a three and a half 772 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:52,280 Speaker 8: month safle of him playing consistent basketball for them. 773 00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:54,360 Speaker 6: Last year, But this year, when he's been asked to. 774 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 8: Do more, it's been like it's not even been a 775 00:36:57,600 --> 00:36:59,400 Speaker 8: good game in a bad game, it's been an awesome 776 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:02,359 Speaker 8: game and just like an atrocious, awful, holy cow, what's 777 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:03,959 Speaker 8: going on kind of game. 778 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:06,719 Speaker 6: And that's scary. That's really hard to evaluate. You have 779 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:09,640 Speaker 6: no idea what the floor or stealing of that kind 780 00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:10,160 Speaker 6: of player is. 781 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:12,560 Speaker 8: It's hard to make decisions based on what they could 782 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 8: be in a more stable role when they can't get 783 00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:16,960 Speaker 8: a stable role for good reason and due to injury 784 00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:18,280 Speaker 8: on your current team. 785 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:20,040 Speaker 3: So I think they're still. 786 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:23,000 Speaker 8: Figuring out with him, But I certainly thought he might 787 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,800 Speaker 8: look a little better this season in general or on balance, 788 00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:27,960 Speaker 8: that he might at least show, you know, three out 789 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:29,520 Speaker 8: of five games or four out of five games, you're 790 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:32,680 Speaker 8: going nice, Okay, he's he looks a little more forcefull 791 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:35,919 Speaker 8: or you know, focused, or his passing looks sharp or whatever. 792 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:37,920 Speaker 8: He still has one turnover a game where he just 793 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:40,279 Speaker 8: throws an atrocious pass even though he made a good read. 794 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:42,440 Speaker 8: So he's got a lot to clean up, even though 795 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:45,799 Speaker 8: he clearly has a solid base of skills. And that's 796 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:48,880 Speaker 8: for them to figure out by February, right, because you know, 797 00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:50,680 Speaker 8: who knows what his value will be if he goes 798 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:53,200 Speaker 8: into year four and doesn't show a ton of pop. Besides, 799 00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 8: just like a bench level wing who's on a somewhat 800 00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:58,000 Speaker 8: sizeable salary and his rookie deal, he obviously has a 801 00:37:58,000 --> 00:37:59,839 Speaker 8: lot of potential, right he can kind of shoot, he's 802 00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:02,480 Speaker 8: got huge defensive size, but you have to kind of 803 00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 8: put it all together for like ten fifteen games in 804 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:06,400 Speaker 8: a row, and so it's really hard to pin down 805 00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:07,759 Speaker 8: his actual value would even be. 806 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:11,040 Speaker 1: So Jeris Walker is Michael Corleone from the Godfather.

Purdue is a 882 00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:40,640 Speaker 1: victim of their own success to an extent, and I 883 00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:46,680 Speaker 1: mean that as the ultimate compliment to Purdue basketball, Perdue basketball, 884 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:48,840 Speaker 1: and what they are doing and what they have done 885 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 1: for the last handful of years is truly remarkable, especially 886 00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:57,839 Speaker 1: in today's era and climate of college basketball, to have 887 00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:02,799 Speaker 1: a team that has conference or national Player of the 888 00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:06,560 Speaker 1: Year candidates that have been there for multiple years and 889 00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:11,239 Speaker 1: are coming back and buying in and all in on 890 00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:17,040 Speaker 1: the team aspect of accomplishment and accolade and not worried 891 00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:19,600 Speaker 1: about the individual stuff and not chasing the bigger money 892 00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:24,160 Speaker 1: elsewhere and not going for bigger roles and getting guys 893 00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:26,440 Speaker 1: that understand where they are and who they are and 894 00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:28,920 Speaker 1: what they are and what Matt Painter wants out of 895 00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:31,880 Speaker 1: That is something that everybody that's a fan of college 896 00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:35,799 Speaker 1: basketball nationwide should be rewarding, talking about celebrating on the 897 00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:39,320 Speaker 1: regular basis and tipping their cap towards because it represents 898 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:43,800 Speaker 1: everything in all areas that you would want for young people, 899 00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:46,360 Speaker 1: for a business, whatever it might be. The model of 900 00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:50,600 Speaker 1: the way Purdue basketball does it is truly admirable. And 901 00:42:51,320 --> 00:42:55,680 Speaker 1: they are so good, they play so well, they are 902 00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:59,719 Speaker 1: so cohesive, and they are so admirable that we should 903 00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:03,160 Speaker 1: be talking about it all the time. But we have 904 00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:07,560 Speaker 1: become accustomed to it. We are almost spoiled by the 905 00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 1: consistency and the consistent greatness that Purdue is putting out 906 00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:14,080 Speaker 1: that it's just like background noise of like, oh yeah, 907 00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:16,200 Speaker 1: and by the way, Purdue happens to be right number one. 908 00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:18,680 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, by the way, Braden Smith happens to be 909 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:21,399 Speaker 1: a front runner for college player there. Oh yeah, by 910 00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:25,680 Speaker 1: the way, Trey Coop and Rin continues to play at 911 00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:27,880 Speaker 1: a high level, especially now that like Oscar cluff As 912 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:31,120 Speaker 1: they're rebounding everything, or Jacobson's getting a block shot or 913 00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:32,920 Speaker 1: whatever it might be. Oh yeah, Fletcher Lawyer just had 914 00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:36,120 Speaker 1: another three. Oh yeah, Harris is coming off the bench 915 00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:38,000 Speaker 1: and hitting threes for them. I mean, we should be 916 00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:41,400 Speaker 1: talking about that with much more consistency. Except for that, 917 00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:43,800 Speaker 1: because they are so good and have done this now 918 00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:48,040 Speaker 1: for a while and just continue to reload the same 919 00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:51,120 Speaker 1: principles that allow them to stay at the same level 920 00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:58,040 Speaker 1: of play. It's almost like we've just become spoiled by 921 00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:02,279 Speaker 1: it of it being expected, so it's almost redundant to 922 00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:06,000 Speaker 1: talk about it. But I do feel for fans of 923 00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 1: Purdue because here they are with the best team in 924 00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:14,440 Speaker 1: college basketball, and everything I just talked about, and yet 925 00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:20,840 Speaker 1: locally speaking, most sports conversation is centered around Kurt Signetti 926 00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:23,640 Speaker 1: and what that football team for Indiana is doing. And 927 00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:27,920 Speaker 1: then parlayed in with the fact that Indiana has a 928 00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:30,479 Speaker 1: new basketball coach that we're still trying to figure out 929 00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:34,880 Speaker 1: what that style is going to be, and therefore IU 930 00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:38,640 Speaker 1: is dominating the conversation when Purdue is the one dominating 931 00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:42,800 Speaker 1: the results. And I understand and respect as a Purdue 932 00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:47,080 Speaker 1: fan why that would be.

Every time you play it, I make mention 982 00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:22,440 Speaker 1: of it. Anything Oasis, well, yes, that goes without saying. 983 00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:28,359 Speaker 1: But the third would be melt with you by modern English. Yeah, 984 00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:30,520 Speaker 1: every time you play that, I make mention of it 985 00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:36,320 Speaker 1: or laying down under that's a great song. I always 986 00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:39,200 Speaker 1: say that that's my favorite song of all time. The 987 00:47:39,239 --> 00:47:43,279 Speaker 1: Cults are back on the practice field, and Kevin Bowen is, 988 00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:45,520 Speaker 1: of course our guy on the scene over there reporting 989 00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:50,840 Speaker 1: the following that appear to be practicing today. Now we 990 00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:54,680 Speaker 1: have seen in the past there is precedent. The word 991 00:47:54,680 --> 00:47:58,880 Speaker 1: I always use of players that will practice on Thursday 992 00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:01,360 Speaker 1: or be out on Thursday, and then the opposite happens 993 00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:04,040 Speaker 1: on game day. Or a guy practices and you go, oh, 994 00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:06,640 Speaker 1: he's good to go, and then suddenly he shows up 995 00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:09,160 Speaker 1: on the injury report is out that has happened, or 996 00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:12,719 Speaker 1: vice versa. A guy that returns to the practice field 997 00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:14,319 Speaker 1: and you're like, okay, good, everything looks good to go, 998 00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:16,720 Speaker 1: and then they are out on game you know, whichever 999 00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:18,879 Speaker 1: way the opposite of what I just said, here are 1000 00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:22,720 Speaker 1: those that are on it appears the field to practice 1001 00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:27,120 Speaker 1: today for the Colts, Kenny Moore, who has been dinged 1002 00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:29,080 Speaker 1: up with an ankle injury, he is out there going. 1003 00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:32,839 Speaker 1: Taekwon lewis also an ankle and Josh Downs Downs has 1004 00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:40,239 Speaker 1: he has been monitored for hip and knee injuries, and 1005 00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:46,040 Speaker 1: Josh Downs is continuing to be an increasingly important part 1006 00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:53,480 Speaker 1: of their offense, notably because and I think when you 1007 00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:56,080 Speaker 1: look at the game against Houston, one of the under 1008 00:48:56,560 --> 00:49:01,600 Speaker 1: rated aspects of what didn't take place, well, one of 1009 00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:04,000 Speaker 1: the things that's easy to overlook that you kind of 1010 00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:10,040 Speaker 1: forget about. We knew going into that game of the 1011 00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:13,839 Speaker 1: injury to Daniel Jones, and there was so much immediate 1012 00:49:13,920 --> 00:49:16,760 Speaker 1: scrutiny of, Okay, how's he going to look? How mobile 1013 00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:18,040 Speaker 1: is he going to be, how is he going to 1014 00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:21,160 Speaker 1: be able to move if the pocket breaks down, et cetera. 1015 00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:23,759 Speaker 1: And the answer to all of those things were not 1016 00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:28,000 Speaker 1: very good. I mean, he at no fault of Daniel 1017 00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:30,480 Speaker 1: Jones or no knock on Daniel Jones. I guess I 1018 00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:35,000 Speaker 1: should say, you know, when Ralph Reef came on with 1019 00:49:35,080 --> 00:49:39,320 Speaker 1: us on Monday, I thought he did an outstanding job 1020 00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:42,880 Speaker 1: of explaining. And I am not a doctor, I'm not 1021 00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:48,320 Speaker 1: a trainer. My only knowledge of anything medical comes from 1022 00:49:48,520 --> 00:49:51,560 Speaker 1: like things that I've undergone personally, and that does not 1023 00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:54,120 Speaker 1: involve anything really with my legs. By the way, when 1024 00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:59,680 Speaker 1: it comes to things medically, reminder, Sunday noon until two 1025 00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:03,160 Speaker 1: we Gougman House brewing over on the near west side 1026 00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:06,880 Speaker 1: off the sixteenth Street with Franciscan Health and our November 1027 00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:10,959 Speaker 1: celebration of Men's Health Fare.

But what Ralph Reef explained when 1035 00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:39,680 Speaker 1: it comes to Daniel Jones leg was the following. The 1036 00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:44,680 Speaker 1: tibula is the shin bone. That's the big one. You 1037 00:50:44,719 --> 00:50:49,400 Speaker 1: play soccer, you wear shin guards. Guess what they're protecting 1038 00:50:49,400 --> 00:50:52,160 Speaker 1: your tibula the way he explained it, and I thought 1039 00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:54,879 Speaker 1: Ralph was outstanding the way he explained it this way, 1040 00:50:55,320 --> 00:51:00,880 Speaker 1: the fibula is like the sidecar that attaches onto it. 1041 00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:03,799 Speaker 1: It's like if ther shin is the motorcycle, then the 1042 00:51:03,800 --> 00:51:07,359 Speaker 1: little sidecar is the fibula. It is a sidebone. And 1043 00:51:07,520 --> 00:51:11,040 Speaker 1: the way Ralph was explaining it was you can get 1044 00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:18,080 Speaker 1: a small fracture a chip in that fibula, and while 1045 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:24,640 Speaker 1: it will not increase in likelihood of further damage to 1046 00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:30,360 Speaker 1: the bone itself, it can create a friction or you know, 1047 00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:33,240 Speaker 1: an offset of some of the ligaments and tendons around 1048 00:51:33,280 --> 00:51:37,239 Speaker 1: it that are very very painful. And as he was 1049 00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:42,880 Speaker 1: explaining it, while Ralph doesn't specifically work on Daniel Jones 1050 00:51:43,360 --> 00:51:46,520 Speaker 1: as somebody who has been around athletic training for forty years, 1051 00:51:46,600 --> 00:51:50,520 Speaker 1: Ralph you know, knows and has an understanding of the 1052 00:51:50,600 --> 00:51:52,520 Speaker 1: symptoms and things like that with a player of a 1053 00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:59,160 Speaker 1: certain injury. And he was saying that Daniel Jones planting 1054 00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:02,000 Speaker 1: his foot or turning his foot or having to push 1055 00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:07,160 Speaker 1: off his foot and his lower leg, while there is 1056 00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:10,840 Speaker 1: likely not the possibility that anything is going to become 1057 00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:15,400 Speaker 1: a more severe injury for him, it doesn't mean that 1058 00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:20,000 Speaker 1: you don't naturally have an inability to one hundred percent 1059 00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:25,640 Speaker 1: exert because your body naturally from that pain holds itself 1060 00:52:25,719 --> 00:52:28,120 Speaker 1: up and you just don't get total range of motion. 1061 00:52:29,360 --> 00:52:31,839 Speaker 1: So if Daniel Jones, if that's the case, and I 1062 00:52:31,960 --> 00:52:36,160 Speaker 1: thought in the Houston game, we immediately saw it that 1063 00:52:36,200 --> 00:52:39,319 Speaker 1: there were plays that were breaking down. And for me, 1064 00:52:39,400 --> 00:52:41,600 Speaker 1: it was right out of the on the very first drive, 1065 00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:45,400 Speaker 1: I saw it a play that was breaking down where 1066 00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:49,799 Speaker 1: the Daniel Jones that has played the level that he 1067 00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:51,400 Speaker 1: was playing when they got out to a seven and 1068 00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:55,280 Speaker 1: one start, and the Daniel Jones that was being discussed 1069 00:52:55,280 --> 00:52:57,480 Speaker 1: as wow, like is this guy playing at an MVP 1070 00:52:57,680 --> 00:53:03,480 Speaker 1: level and he is answering every single request that Shane 1071 00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:06,520 Speaker 1: Stikeen is making of him, of understanding reads and going 1072 00:53:06,520 --> 00:53:10,720 Speaker 1: through his progressions and feeling comfortable in the pocket because 1073 00:53:10,760 --> 00:53:13,239 Speaker 1: he knows that if all hell breaks loose, he can 1074 00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:15,640 Speaker 1: use his wheels to get out and to get around 1075 00:53:15,680 --> 00:53:18,520 Speaker 1: the edge and to pick up six, seven, eight yards. 1076 00:53:19,880 --> 00:53:22,319 Speaker 1: All of those things were taken away. You could tell 1077 00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:25,440 Speaker 1: immediately where he knew, Okay, I don't have that option 1078 00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:31,680 Speaker 1: when the heat's coming on me. I got to get 1079 00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:34,640 Speaker 1: out of the house immediately because I just I don't 1080 00:53:34,640 --> 00:53:38,680 Speaker 1: have any way to extend plays and even go through 1081 00:53:38,719 --> 00:53:41,480 Speaker 1: all of my reads because I've got to make a 1082 00:53:41,560 --> 00:53:43,479 Speaker 1: quick decision to get out of this. And you could 1083 00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:49,279 Speaker 1: see that one of the underappreciated aspects of that, and 1084 00:53:49,320 --> 00:53:53,520 Speaker 1: I think overlooked. Going into that game against Houston, what 1085 00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:57,040 Speaker 1: we knew was that Tyler Warren was dealing with an 1086 00:53:57,120 --> 00:54:01,640 Speaker 1: illness miss some practice time, but was not one hundred percent. 1087 00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:05,040 Speaker 1: And I know he was out there playing and I 1088 00:54:05,040 --> 00:54:06,680 Speaker 1: don't know what his illness was. I assume he had 1089 00:54:06,719 --> 00:54:09,280 Speaker 1: like a flu like symptoms or whatever else. But you naturally, 1090 00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:14,000 Speaker 1: when you're not feeling up, you can imagine, you know, 1091 00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:16,640 Speaker 1: when you get that, and this time of year you 1092 00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:18,759 Speaker 1: certainly get it a lot. But when you get that 1093 00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:22,120 Speaker 1: cold or that achy feeling where just everything you touch 1094 00:54:22,320 --> 00:54:25,239 Speaker 1: your body feels freezing and you just feel like you're 1095 00:54:25,320 --> 00:54:27,759 Speaker 1: made of porcelain and like everything you touch you're just 1096 00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:31,480 Speaker 1: it reverberates through your entire body. So imagine feeling that 1097 00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:34,480 Speaker 1: way even on a Thursday and then going out Sunday 1098 00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:38,960 Speaker 1: and playing in a not contact but collision sport and 1099 00:54:39,080 --> 00:54:44,920 Speaker 1: Tyler Warren I know, ironically enough, on the fourth and 1100 00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:46,799 Speaker 1: one where they tried to do the direct step to 1101 00:54:46,840 --> 00:54:48,680 Speaker 1: Tyler Warren, they were doing that because they knew that 1102 00:54:48,760 --> 00:54:54,120 Speaker 1: Jones's mobility was compromised. But Warren I think was also compromised, 1103 00:54:54,520 --> 00:54:58,000 Speaker 1: and so he wasn't able necessarily to just get in 1104 00:54:58,080 --> 00:55:03,800 Speaker 1: those situations where he is your bail. And for Daniel Jones, 1105 00:55:05,160 --> 00:55:07,560 Speaker 1: if he doesn't have time to go through all of 1106 00:55:07,560 --> 00:55:11,880 Speaker 1: his reads now, if he knows that when the heat's 1107 00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:15,160 Speaker 1: coming and the pockets can collapsing around him, that he 1108 00:55:15,280 --> 00:55:19,800 Speaker 1: doesn't have the tuck and go ability, then he needs 1109 00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:21,919 Speaker 1: to know that there is somebody there where he can 1110 00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:27,360 Speaker 1: immediately get out of a play and just find somebody 1111 00:55:27,400 --> 00:55:31,080 Speaker 1: that is floating open out there to bail him out. 1112 00:55:31,080 --> 00:55:33,960 Speaker 1: And that guy is Josh Downs. Josh Downs is a 1113 00:55:34,080 --> 00:55:37,800 Speaker 1: very important He's an important part of their offense in general, 1114 00:55:38,560 --> 00:55:42,759 Speaker 1: but he's even more important now. Without Ashton Dula, without 1115 00:55:42,760 --> 00:55:46,080 Speaker 1: Ady Mitchell, you are shrinking the level of options that 1116 00:55:46,120 --> 00:55:49,919 Speaker 1: are out there in general. But he is your your 1117 00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:56,520 Speaker 1: bailout emergency guy. You know, Eddie, do you remember the 1118 00:55:56,920 --> 00:55:59,160 Speaker 1: term that I use, the copier guy? You know what 1119 00:55:59,200 --> 00:56:04,200 Speaker 1: a copier guy is? This is another quariism. Yeah, give me, 1120 00:56:04,680 --> 00:56:08,880 Speaker 1: give me a line and industry, a company, a business 1121 00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:11,360 Speaker 1: you know off the top of your head, A company 1122 00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:14,680 Speaker 1: that does what. 1123 00:56:13,480 --> 00:56:16,120 Speaker 2: A company that does I don't know. Printing, okay, a 1124 00:56:16,160 --> 00:56:16,880 Speaker 2: printing company. 1125 00:56:17,160 --> 00:56:20,480 Speaker 1: Okay. So if you're a printing company, you are a 1126 00:56:20,520 --> 00:56:26,280 Speaker 1: Garrison printing company and you got fifty five employees. Every company, 1127 00:56:26,320 --> 00:56:30,359 Speaker 1: including Garrison Printing needs a copier guy. Well, Jake, what 1128 00:56:30,440 --> 00:56:33,320 Speaker 1: is a copier guy? Best way to explain it? Every 1129 00:56:33,360 --> 00:56:36,520 Speaker 1: company has that one guy or gal in the building 1130 00:56:36,719 --> 00:56:38,800 Speaker 1: that when there are three people sitting around the copier 1131 00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:41,880 Speaker 1: because it's on the blink, it's frozen up. Nobody can 1132 00:56:41,920 --> 00:56:44,680 Speaker 1: figure out why we just added tone, or does this 1133 00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:47,160 Speaker 1: thing that paper. Why is it beeping at me? There's 1134 00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:49,360 Speaker 1: always that guy in the building that you go, you 1135 00:56:49,360 --> 00:56:53,759 Speaker 1: know what, has anybody seen Frank? Where's Frank? Frank knows 1136 00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:56,239 Speaker 1: how to fix that stuff. This building's copier guy is 1137 00:56:56,239 --> 00:56:59,280 Speaker 1: Scotti Johnston. He just knows. He knows where everybody's buried, 1138 00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:03,040 Speaker 1: he knows where everything is. He knows how to replace everything. 1139 00:57:03,080 --> 00:57:05,879 Speaker 1: He knows how to fix everything anything goes wrong. That's 1140 00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:07,920 Speaker 1: the guy you call. You just know he's going to 1141 00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:10,440 Speaker 1: know how to fix it. Josh Downs, to an extent, 1142 00:57:10,520 --> 00:57:13,640 Speaker 1: is that guy right now for the Colts offense. He's 1143 00:57:13,680 --> 00:57:15,640 Speaker 1: the guy that you just know is going to bail 1144 00:57:15,640 --> 00:57:18,360 Speaker 1: you out. Now, the player that I think the Colts 1145 00:57:18,360 --> 00:57:22,919 Speaker 1: need to kind of get going here a little bit, Eddie, 1146 00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:25,960 Speaker 1: I'll ask you which player on the Colts offense right 1147 00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:30,200 Speaker 1: now is the one that it has not been injury 1148 00:57:30,280 --> 00:57:35,640 Speaker 1: just for whatever reason, it seems like you say to yourself, 1149 00:57:35,880 --> 00:57:38,560 Speaker 1: although I say this made a bit, did make a 1150 00:57:38,560 --> 00:57:45,320 Speaker 1: big play recently, but also was part of what should 1151 00:57:45,360 --> 00:57:49,240 Speaker 1: have been a bigger play. Wasn't necessarily his fault didn't deliver. 1152 00:57:49,600 --> 00:57:55,000 Speaker 1: But a guy that going into the year you thought 1153 00:57:55,120 --> 00:58:00,840 Speaker 1: was going to be a much more consistent, big stat 1154 00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:04,080 Speaker 1: guy than he's been anybody jump out of you. 1155 00:58:04,920 --> 00:58:09,760 Speaker 2: I would still go with Josh Downs really in this category. Yes, 1156 00:58:10,840 --> 00:58:13,360 Speaker 2: I mean, if you look at the last two weeks specifically, 1157 00:58:13,440 --> 00:58:16,160 Speaker 2: he's got four of the twelve targets he's had. He 1158 00:58:16,160 --> 00:58:19,600 Speaker 2: had two drops against Houston, he had a there was 1159 00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:21,520 Speaker 2: a ball that he should have caught against Kansas City 1160 00:58:21,520 --> 00:58:23,080 Speaker 2: but he didn't get his head around in time to 1161 00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:23,440 Speaker 2: catch it. 1162 00:58:24,360 --> 00:58:26,120 Speaker 1: And he had a drive. He had one drive in 1163 00:58:26,160 --> 00:58:29,080 Speaker 1: that game though, where he was the entire drive right. 1164 00:58:29,200 --> 00:58:31,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, his two catchers were on that one drive, and 1165 00:58:31,600 --> 00:58:34,080 Speaker 2: then he had another catch that got called back because 1166 00:58:34,080 --> 00:58:35,760 Speaker 2: of the holding, and then the very next play was 1167 00:58:35,760 --> 00:58:39,400 Speaker 2: to Alec Pierce pass interference penalty that he drew that 1168 00:58:39,880 --> 00:58:42,080 Speaker 2: resulted in the first down. But it just it just 1169 00:58:42,080 --> 00:58:44,480 Speaker 2: doesn't feel like Josh Downs has been as impactful. He's 1170 00:58:44,480 --> 00:58:46,680 Speaker 2: got three hundred and seventy yards this year on forty 1171 00:58:46,680 --> 00:58:50,240 Speaker 2: catches and three touchdowns. Just doesn't feel like he's been 1172 00:58:50,280 --> 00:58:53,680 Speaker 2: a consistent figure in their offense. 1173 00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:58,560 Speaker 1: I'll go with Michael Pittman Jr. 1174 00:58:58,920 --> 00:58:59,240 Speaker 3: Really. 1175 00:59:00,280 --> 00:59:04,080 Speaker 1: Look, he's a great player, but Alec Peerce is now 1176 00:59:04,960 --> 00:59:08,120 Speaker 1: I think we can safely Kevin just had an article 1177 00:59:08,160 --> 00:59:10,200 Speaker 1: about this, and I agree with Kevin on this. Alec 1178 00:59:10,240 --> 00:59:12,439 Speaker 1: Pierce has now ascended as the Colts kind of number 1179 00:59:12,480 --> 00:59:17,600 Speaker 1: one wide receiver without question. Yeah, because he is. And 1180 00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:21,120 Speaker 1: Pittman Jr. I mean, I love him because he has 1181 00:59:21,240 --> 00:59:26,800 Speaker 1: been the definition of you know, tough over the middle, 1182 00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:30,720 Speaker 1: playing hurt answering the bell. I mean, he's a guy 1183 00:59:30,800 --> 00:59:35,400 Speaker 1: that is no doubt about it. I think last year, 1184 00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:41,840 Speaker 1: in particular, he was playing he was playing hurt last 1185 00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:44,280 Speaker 1: year and with the back and you could see it, 1186 00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:49,720 Speaker 1: but he but he fought through it. And you know, 1187 00:59:49,760 --> 00:59:51,680 Speaker 1: you look back now and you go, Okay. I mean, 1188 00:59:52,720 --> 00:59:54,960 Speaker 1: it really is impressive what he was able to do 1189 00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:58,520 Speaker 1: considering I think he was really banged up. But and 1190 00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:02,200 Speaker 1: I'm not saying he's a bad player this year at all, 1191 01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:06,080 Speaker 1: but I think that we anticipated Okay, now, a healthy 1192 01:00:06,120 --> 01:00:09,760 Speaker 1: Michael Pittman means he is their number one guy. And 1193 01:00:09,800 --> 01:00:11,800 Speaker 1: I think Pierce says and maybe that says more about 1194 01:00:11,840 --> 01:00:15,880 Speaker 1: Pierce than it does Pittman, but it feels like Pittman, 1195 01:00:17,240 --> 01:00:19,800 Speaker 1: you know, I'm look at his game, look up his game. 1196 01:00:19,600 --> 01:00:21,160 Speaker 2: Log yep, looking at it right now. 1197 01:00:21,200 --> 01:00:28,080 Speaker 1: Okay, give me what's the most what's the highest number 1198 01:00:28,080 --> 01:00:29,840 Speaker 1: of receptions he's had in the game this year. 1199 01:00:29,960 --> 01:00:35,560 Speaker 2: Nine's that's solid, nine for one fifteen, I mean huge obviously, right, Okay, 1200 01:00:35,600 --> 01:00:38,040 Speaker 2: Outside of that, give me the rest of his games. 1201 01:00:38,840 --> 01:00:41,200 Speaker 2: That was against Pittsburgh, he had eight for ninety five 1202 01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:43,640 Speaker 2: in a touchdown, against Tennessee. He had seven for fifty 1203 01:00:43,640 --> 01:00:47,000 Speaker 2: eight in a touchdown against the Chargers. 1204 01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:48,640 Speaker 1: Miami. 1205 01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:50,960 Speaker 2: Week one, six for eighty in a touchdown, six for 1206 01:00:51,000 --> 01:00:53,240 Speaker 2: seventy three in a touchdown against Tennessee. And another game 1207 01:00:53,280 --> 01:00:55,480 Speaker 2: five for forty one in a touchdown against the Rams, 1208 01:00:55,960 --> 01:01:00,240 Speaker 2: five for thirty nine in the touchdown against Vegas. 1209 01:01:00,680 --> 01:01:02,760 Speaker 1: And that's yeah. I mean, when you read it off 1210 01:01:02,760 --> 01:01:05,160 Speaker 1: that way, you go, Okay, that's pretty solid, right. I mean, 1211 01:01:05,520 --> 01:01:08,280 Speaker 1: I just I think going into the year, I thought 1212 01:01:08,320 --> 01:01:12,920 Speaker 1: of him more as the consistent eight to nine to 1213 01:01:12,960 --> 01:01:16,240 Speaker 1: ten catches per game guy, and that's been his ceiling. 1214 01:01:16,400 --> 01:01:19,680 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Now, what are Pierce's numbers 1215 01:01:20,160 --> 01:01:23,440 Speaker 1: is what is Pierce's high game in terms of receptions. 1216 01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:25,360 Speaker 1: I know he has surpassed him in yardage, but what 1217 01:01:25,400 --> 01:01:27,960 Speaker 1: about and you get more chunk plays out of Pierce? 1218 01:01:28,040 --> 01:01:28,400 Speaker 1: I get it. 1219 01:01:28,760 --> 01:01:31,560 Speaker 2: In that same game against Pittsburgh, Pierce had a big 1220 01:01:31,560 --> 01:01:34,920 Speaker 2: game as well, six for one fifteen no touchdown. But 1221 01:01:35,080 --> 01:01:37,920 Speaker 2: I mean, if you look at just the consistency of 1222 01:01:37,920 --> 01:01:42,280 Speaker 2: Pierce four for sixty eight, four for sixty seven, Arizona 1223 01:01:42,360 --> 01:01:45,200 Speaker 2: two for forty eight, and then you got the Chargers 1224 01:01:45,200 --> 01:01:48,160 Speaker 2: five for ninety eight, Atlanta four for eighty four in 1225 01:01:48,160 --> 01:01:51,320 Speaker 2: a score see you get more big play out of Pierce, right, 1226 01:01:51,600 --> 01:01:53,880 Speaker 2: and then Houston four for seventy eight in a touchdown. 1227 01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:55,920 Speaker 2: So I guess Pittman is doing what it is that 1228 01:01:55,960 --> 01:01:58,000 Speaker 2: you would expect though in the fact that he is more. 1229 01:01:58,160 --> 01:02:03,040 Speaker 2: But I will agree with you that the last couple 1230 01:02:03,080 --> 01:02:05,320 Speaker 2: of weeks there just doesn't seem to be the level 1231 01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:08,320 Speaker 2: of separation now I think for Pittman, and we've seen 1232 01:02:08,320 --> 01:02:11,200 Speaker 2: that historically in his career. Though, Jake is that the Colts, 1233 01:02:11,280 --> 01:02:13,000 Speaker 2: you know, the passing gam has struggled the last couple 1234 01:02:13,000 --> 01:02:14,800 Speaker 2: of years because of the fact that they haven't had 1235 01:02:14,800 --> 01:02:16,600 Speaker 2: a lot of guys that get open with you know, 1236 01:02:16,720 --> 01:02:19,040 Speaker 2: the release off the line of scrimmage. A lot of 1237 01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:22,000 Speaker 2: it is scheme and getting the ball out quickly, and 1238 01:02:22,040 --> 01:02:25,000 Speaker 2: notably with Pittman, there's just not a lot of room lately. 1239 01:02:25,040 --> 01:02:27,080 Speaker 2: He's getting hit as he's trying to make the catcher. 1240 01:02:27,400 --> 01:02:28,560 Speaker 2: He's just simply not open. 1241 01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:32,560 Speaker 1: I think a lot of it is what you just 1242 01:02:32,600 --> 01:02:34,720 Speaker 1: said there at the end, he's simply not open. I 1243 01:02:34,760 --> 01:02:40,280 Speaker 1: think some of it is now you are getting a 1244 01:02:40,440 --> 01:02:43,920 Speaker 1: shorter amount of time for guys to get open because 1245 01:02:43,960 --> 01:02:48,120 Speaker 1: you don't have the extension of play clock like you 1246 01:02:48,240 --> 01:02:53,720 Speaker 1: had before because of the injury and the other unfortunate 1247 01:02:53,800 --> 01:02:57,040 Speaker 1: thing that comes into play with all of that is 1248 01:02:58,600 --> 01:03:01,480 Speaker 1: and I know that that I'm apparently alone on this island. 1249 01:03:03,920 --> 01:03:06,000 Speaker 1: We talked to Chap about it. I mean, we talked 1250 01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:11,920 Speaker 1: to several about this, but I still want I can't 1251 01:03:11,960 --> 01:03:18,400 Speaker 1: help but wonder maybe we're not there yet. But and 1252 01:03:18,480 --> 01:03:21,680 Speaker 1: I'm not talking about in game totality. I'm talking about 1253 01:03:21,720 --> 01:03:26,320 Speaker 1: in limited spots or bursts. But if there are times 1254 01:03:26,360 --> 01:03:31,520 Speaker 1: where it is very clear that teams are aggressively getting 1255 01:03:31,560 --> 01:03:38,320 Speaker 1: at Daniel Jones and his mobility is not there are 1256 01:03:38,400 --> 01:03:43,080 Speaker 1: those moments or are there healthy Anthony Richardson would have 1257 01:03:43,120 --> 01:03:47,120 Speaker 1: been utilized at times too offset that I'm not saying 1258 01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:49,880 Speaker 1: quarterback by committee by any stretch, but would we have 1259 01:03:50,040 --> 01:03:54,560 Speaker 1: seen him The fourth and one is a prime example. 1260 01:03:54,920 --> 01:03:57,760 Speaker 1: Are there times where Richardson would have found his way 1261 01:03:57,800 --> 01:04:03,440 Speaker 1: back onto the field and been utilized in spot situations. 1262 01:04:03,880 --> 01:04:06,480 Speaker 1: I personally think that's something that would have been explored. 1263 01:04:06,520 --> 01:04:09,520 Speaker 1: Now I know that that, you know, those that we 1264 01:04:09,560 --> 01:04:13,720 Speaker 1: talked about said no, it's pretty clear that that's they've 1265 01:04:13,760 --> 01:04:15,640 Speaker 1: moved on from that, and I do think they've moved 1266 01:04:15,680 --> 01:04:19,360 Speaker 1: on from him. But it still feels like if he 1267 01:04:19,440 --> 01:04:22,160 Speaker 1: has was healthy, And I know you feel bad for 1268 01:04:22,240 --> 01:04:25,960 Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson because that injury, you know, it appears is 1269 01:04:26,200 --> 01:04:31,160 Speaker 1: in fact a serious injury that still there doesn't appear 1270 01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:33,480 Speaker 1: to be any sort of a clear timeline on return. 1271 01:04:35,120 --> 01:04:37,920 Speaker 1: But if that had never happened, and I realized it 1272 01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:40,200 Speaker 1: did so, it's kind of a point, but I am 1273 01:04:40,360 --> 01:04:44,000 Speaker 1: still it leaves me wondering the what if question in 1274 01:04:44,080 --> 01:04:47,320 Speaker 1: a continued long list of what ifs when it comes 1275 01:04:47,360 --> 01:04:51,760 Speaker 1: to Anthony Richardson. I also am curious about this, by 1276 01:04:51,760 --> 01:04:54,120 Speaker 1: the way, and this is what makes me weird. I realize, Okay, 1277 01:04:54,280 --> 01:04:57,360 Speaker 1: we now have to call him Anthony Richardson senior, right, yes, 1278 01:04:59,560 --> 01:05:02,360 Speaker 1: which I yes, I get, except for that the junior. 1279 01:05:02,480 --> 01:05:05,040 Speaker 1: It's not like he's playing and you need to differentiate, right, 1280 01:05:05,960 --> 01:05:07,200 Speaker 1: Does that make sense what I'm saying? 1281 01:05:07,720 --> 01:05:10,919 Speaker 2: I don't know, Like Jake, if you were Jake Querry senior, 1282 01:05:10,920 --> 01:05:14,200 Speaker 2: wouldn't you want to be known as Jakequerry senior? But 1283 01:05:14,360 --> 01:05:16,680 Speaker 2: I think of it as I guess you are a 1284 01:05:16,720 --> 01:05:20,760 Speaker 2: senior anyway, That's right, the gray hair shows it. What 1285 01:05:20,800 --> 01:05:21,880 Speaker 2: I'm getting at, is I. 1286 01:05:23,800 --> 01:05:26,040 Speaker 1: Guess. I just I mean, how many players are out there? 1287 01:05:26,040 --> 01:05:27,480 Speaker 1: I would imagine there are a lot of players in 1288 01:05:27,520 --> 01:05:30,320 Speaker 1: the NFL who have a child that has the same name. 1289 01:05:30,720 --> 01:05:34,040 Speaker 2: Right, Well, Rodney Thomas is Rodney Thomas the second. 1290 01:05:34,600 --> 01:05:36,680 Speaker 1: Do you know the difference between the second and junior? 1291 01:05:37,280 --> 01:05:40,200 Speaker 1: So this is a very fascinating thing, but explain it. Yeah, 1292 01:05:40,280 --> 01:05:45,080 Speaker 1: I believe I'm correct in this. Typically when you hear 1293 01:05:45,360 --> 01:05:50,720 Speaker 1: the second versus junior, junior is in direct lineage, and 1294 01:05:50,760 --> 01:05:53,600 Speaker 1: the second means that you are named after someone within 1295 01:05:53,680 --> 01:05:55,600 Speaker 1: the family of the same name, but it is not 1296 01:05:55,640 --> 01:06:00,040 Speaker 1: necessarily a direct offspring. Correct. So in other words, in 1297 01:06:00,120 --> 01:06:02,880 Speaker 1: other words, if you have a son, yep, and you 1298 01:06:02,960 --> 01:06:07,280 Speaker 1: name the son after my uncle, correct, then that would 1299 01:06:07,320 --> 01:06:14,120 Speaker 1: be the second now or after your dad. So now, yeah, 1300 01:06:14,200 --> 01:06:16,920 Speaker 1: let's say let's say your dad's name is Tom. It 1301 01:06:16,960 --> 01:06:17,960 Speaker 1: is is it really? 1302 01:06:18,040 --> 01:06:18,280 Speaker 3: Yes? 1303 01:06:18,440 --> 01:06:21,760 Speaker 1: Okay? So Tom Garrison. So if you have a son 1304 01:06:21,840 --> 01:06:23,520 Speaker 1: and you're like, I'm gonna name him after my dad. 1305 01:06:23,560 --> 01:06:26,040 Speaker 1: Then it's Tom Garrison the second. But it's not junior 1306 01:06:26,080 --> 01:06:28,919 Speaker 1: because he is not directly underneath your dad. 1307 01:06:28,960 --> 01:06:33,040 Speaker 2: Which brings me to this question, why is Steph Curry 1308 01:06:34,400 --> 01:06:36,440 Speaker 2: Steph Wardell Stephan Curry the second? 1309 01:06:37,680 --> 01:06:39,840 Speaker 1: Because there is a what that would mean? 1310 01:06:40,080 --> 01:06:47,000 Speaker 2: Say, father is Wardell Stephan Curry. His father is Del Curry, right, 1311 01:06:47,440 --> 01:06:49,600 Speaker 2: but it's Wardell Stephan Curry. 1312 01:06:49,640 --> 01:06:55,600 Speaker 1: Gotcha, Okay? And so you're saying that Steph Curry is listed. 1313 01:06:55,360 --> 01:06:58,640 Speaker 2: As Wardell Stephan Curry the second. 1314 01:07:00,120 --> 01:07:03,120 Speaker 1: Okay, that's a great question. I don't know that would 1315 01:07:03,520 --> 01:07:05,240 Speaker 1: seemingly that would be junior, right. 1316 01:07:05,840 --> 01:07:09,520 Speaker 2: I believe Steph also named one of his kids the 1317 01:07:09,560 --> 01:07:10,400 Speaker 2: same name as well. 1318 01:07:11,640 --> 01:07:17,080 Speaker 1: Also the second, I'm just kidding, Okay, Junior is used 1319 01:07:17,120 --> 01:07:19,400 Speaker 1: when a son has the same name as his father. 1320 01:07:19,880 --> 01:07:21,960 Speaker 1: The second is used when a child is named after 1321 01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:23,560 Speaker 1: a relative which is not the father. 1322 01:07:24,080 --> 01:07:28,240 Speaker 2: So I don't know, are we looking too much into that? 1323 01:07:28,320 --> 01:07:28,440 Speaker 9: Now? 1324 01:07:28,760 --> 01:07:32,760 Speaker 1: Look at you? Do you happen to have the breaking newshouter. 1325 01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:37,360 Speaker 8: On this. 1326 01:07:37,600 --> 01:07:42,440 Speaker 1: Just in, Eddie Garrison is a name conspiracy theorist. We've 1327 01:07:42,520 --> 01:07:45,320 Speaker 1: just learned that in the last few minutes. Indiana, Ohio 1328 01:07:45,320 --> 01:07:48,440 Speaker 1: State Saturday, Lucas Oil Stadium, Buckeye Sided things.

See, Tim, you are one of literally 1347 01:08:47,320 --> 01:08:49,920 Speaker 1: eighteen people in the world that know that querry means 1348 01:08:49,920 --> 01:08:52,880 Speaker 1: a question. And I could not be more thrilled for it, right, and. 1349 01:08:52,880 --> 01:08:55,160 Speaker 9: That just shows you what state the world is in 1350 01:08:55,240 --> 01:08:55,840 Speaker 9: as we speak. 1351 01:08:55,880 --> 01:08:56,160 Speaker 3: Brother. 1352 01:08:58,640 --> 01:09:00,800 Speaker 1: See, this is for the those that don't know. We've 1353 01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:03,840 Speaker 1: already gotten a glimpse of what conversations sound like in 1354 01:09:03,880 --> 01:09:05,680 Speaker 1: press rooms when Tim and I sit and solve the 1355 01:09:05,680 --> 01:09:08,879 Speaker 1: world's problems. All right, Tim, let's get to this Ohio 1356 01:09:08,880 --> 01:09:12,200 Speaker 1: State in Indiana. Obviously, Ohio State is the pedigree program. 1357 01:09:12,280 --> 01:09:15,680 Speaker 1: Indiana is this incredible Cinderella story that is now no 1358 01:09:15,760 --> 01:09:19,040 Speaker 1: longer a Cinderella because they've gone past midnight. And oh 1359 01:09:19,120 --> 01:09:22,439 Speaker 1: you so, I'm curious if you really did have to 1360 01:09:23,040 --> 01:09:27,360 Speaker 1: in transparency here, what is the Ohio State fan or 1361 01:09:27,920 --> 01:09:32,599 Speaker 1: just culture perception of Indiana? What is the thought here 1362 01:09:32,800 --> 01:09:37,439 Speaker 1: of you know, is how serious do they take Indiana? 1363 01:09:40,280 --> 01:09:45,320 Speaker 9: Nineteen eighty seven, Earl Bruce got beat in the Ohio stadium. 1364 01:09:45,400 --> 01:09:49,880 Speaker 9: I think the score was I think it was thirty yep, yeah, 1365 01:09:49,920 --> 01:09:52,960 Speaker 9: and Earl Bruce, in the Ohio State football coach called 1366 01:09:52,960 --> 01:09:55,760 Speaker 9: it the darkest day in Ohio State history, not Ohio 1367 01:09:55,840 --> 01:10:00,000 Speaker 9: State football history, Ohio State history. And then the next 1368 01:10:00,120 --> 01:10:03,320 Speaker 9: year Bill Mallory did it, two years in a row, 1369 01:10:03,360 --> 01:10:06,559 Speaker 9: beat Ohio State and beat him thoroughly for I'm just 1370 01:10:06,600 --> 01:10:08,400 Speaker 9: throwing a little history out there. I think it was 1371 01:10:08,439 --> 01:10:12,880 Speaker 9: forty one to seven or something remarkable. And uh, in 1372 01:10:12,960 --> 01:10:15,800 Speaker 9: my lead in the in the Colembus Dispatch on my 1373 01:10:15,880 --> 01:10:18,080 Speaker 9: story the next day was a new day is dawned 1374 01:10:18,120 --> 01:10:20,080 Speaker 9: in the Big ten And. 1375 01:10:20,400 --> 01:10:21,879 Speaker 6: Little I know that'd be the last. 1376 01:10:21,720 --> 01:10:25,439 Speaker 9: Time Indiana would have beaten Ohio State until as we 1377 01:10:25,479 --> 01:10:29,160 Speaker 9: speak right now. So it's kind of hard to it's 1378 01:10:29,240 --> 01:10:34,760 Speaker 9: kind of hard to pinpoint wor Ohio State perceives of Indiana, 1379 01:10:34,800 --> 01:10:38,519 Speaker 9: except I keep pointing out the people. Indiana under Kurt 1380 01:10:38,600 --> 01:10:45,200 Speaker 9: Signetti has now lost two games in two seasons, and 1381 01:10:45,240 --> 01:10:48,080 Speaker 9: the two losses worked to the two teams that played 1382 01:10:48,120 --> 01:10:52,280 Speaker 9: for the for the national championship last year. They've gone 1383 01:10:52,400 --> 01:10:55,840 Speaker 9: undefeated in this I mean, you know, Indiana's never been 1384 01:10:55,880 --> 01:10:59,200 Speaker 9: at this level before in terms of winning on a 1385 01:10:59,240 --> 01:11:04,280 Speaker 9: consistent day. It's much less going undefeated. So last year, 1386 01:11:04,560 --> 01:11:09,479 Speaker 9: oh my goodness. This year, oh okay. Kurt Signetti at 1387 01:11:09,640 --> 01:11:12,360 Speaker 9: AL know exactly what they're doing. And you know, I 1388 01:11:12,400 --> 01:11:16,680 Speaker 9: said back in the late spring, early summer that my 1389 01:11:16,800 --> 01:11:19,439 Speaker 9: opinion of Indiana was going to be better than it 1390 01:11:19,560 --> 01:11:22,920 Speaker 9: was last year because it had gotten key portal some 1391 01:11:23,080 --> 01:11:25,599 Speaker 9: key portal transferred guys, not the least of which was 1392 01:11:25,680 --> 01:11:30,160 Speaker 9: Fernando Mendoza, the quarterback from California, because he was an upgrade, 1393 01:11:30,520 --> 01:11:33,280 Speaker 9: you know, no offense to mister Rourke, but a definite 1394 01:11:33,400 --> 01:11:36,679 Speaker 9: upgrade there. And I think everybody's seen it now. He's 1395 01:11:37,400 --> 01:11:39,400 Speaker 9: depending on where you look at. He's a Heisman favorite, 1396 01:11:39,479 --> 01:11:42,200 Speaker 9: one of the Heisman favorites, along with Julian saying, so 1397 01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:45,920 Speaker 9: Saturday night has a lot hanging in the balance in 1398 01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:47,000 Speaker 9: Lucas Oil. 1399 01:11:47,000 --> 01:11:49,680 Speaker 1: Do we know, let's talk about the quarterback matchup ten? 1400 01:11:49,760 --> 01:11:51,720 Speaker 1: Because this is I think you're right, I mean, I 1401 01:11:51,720 --> 01:11:53,880 Speaker 1: think the Heisman make him down to this game, right, 1402 01:11:55,160 --> 01:11:57,759 Speaker 1: Julian saying, let's start there. He is a younger player, 1403 01:11:57,800 --> 01:12:00,559 Speaker 1: he has had a phenomenal year. He has out standing 1404 01:12:00,600 --> 01:12:04,799 Speaker 1: weapons around him. Do we know what kind of player 1405 01:12:04,840 --> 01:12:07,120 Speaker 1: he is when they're as heat on him or they 1406 01:12:07,360 --> 01:12:10,280 Speaker 1: have they adequately protected him so far this year? And 1407 01:12:10,360 --> 01:12:14,880 Speaker 1: can Indiana get to him? 1408 01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:17,760 Speaker 9: Well, I mean we'll have to wait and find out. Jake, 1409 01:12:17,840 --> 01:12:20,280 Speaker 9: I mean, I know that's a cop out, but but 1410 01:12:20,280 --> 01:12:24,000 Speaker 9: but Ohio State the offensive line? You know this an 1411 01:12:24,000 --> 01:12:28,439 Speaker 9: now see the All Big Ten Offensive Award winners and 1412 01:12:28,520 --> 01:12:31,840 Speaker 9: teams and didn't have one member of its offensive line 1413 01:12:32,439 --> 01:12:37,240 Speaker 9: on the first team on either first team, so I 1414 01:12:37,240 --> 01:12:40,160 Speaker 9: picked as a major oversight by those who voted on 1415 01:12:40,200 --> 01:12:44,040 Speaker 9: the awards. But but the bottom line is we're gonna 1416 01:12:44,040 --> 01:12:45,920 Speaker 9: have to find out. I mean, this offensive line is 1417 01:12:45,920 --> 01:12:48,280 Speaker 9: playing at a very high level. As the game went 1418 01:12:48,360 --> 01:12:51,120 Speaker 9: on on Saturday in the Big House, they took more 1419 01:12:51,160 --> 01:12:55,519 Speaker 9: and more control of it, and it's it's it's kind 1420 01:12:55,560 --> 01:12:57,679 Speaker 9: of been fun to watch as much like last year. 1421 01:12:58,040 --> 01:13:00,479 Speaker 9: You know, Ohio State got beat by Michigan and it 1422 01:13:00,600 --> 01:13:03,519 Speaker 9: was their second loss, and a lot of people gave 1423 01:13:03,640 --> 01:13:07,560 Speaker 9: up on the Hostie football team. But they lost two starters, 1424 01:13:07,640 --> 01:13:10,880 Speaker 9: two major starters as the season went on last year, 1425 01:13:10,920 --> 01:13:14,280 Speaker 9: their center and their left tackle, both of whom were 1426 01:13:14,360 --> 01:13:17,479 Speaker 9: drafted in the National Football League, and now Josh Summons 1427 01:13:17,520 --> 01:13:20,639 Speaker 9: is playing first round draft pick in the National Football League. 1428 01:13:20,680 --> 01:13:21,759 Speaker 3: The left tackle they lost. 1429 01:13:21,960 --> 01:13:25,800 Speaker 9: But the bottom line is the offensive line. In December 1430 01:13:25,840 --> 01:13:28,519 Speaker 9: through January, the four games they won to win the 1431 01:13:28,600 --> 01:13:31,599 Speaker 9: National Championship, it was the best offensive line in the country. 1432 01:13:31,640 --> 01:13:33,519 Speaker 9: I don't think anybody would argue with that. With the 1433 01:13:33,560 --> 01:13:36,599 Speaker 9: way they took care of business throughout the playoffs. This 1434 01:13:36,680 --> 01:13:40,400 Speaker 9: offensive line replaced a couple of starters, but has really 1435 01:13:40,439 --> 01:13:43,160 Speaker 9: grown into itself in the last couple of weeks. And 1436 01:13:43,320 --> 01:13:45,920 Speaker 9: you know, everybody was poo pulling their schedule until they 1437 01:13:46,000 --> 01:13:49,200 Speaker 9: played Michigan, and then they took care of Michigan in 1438 01:13:49,240 --> 01:13:53,120 Speaker 9: a methodical fashion. So I think they feel pretty good 1439 01:13:53,160 --> 01:13:56,320 Speaker 9: about their ability to protect the quarterback. But I keep 1440 01:13:56,320 --> 01:13:59,080 Speaker 9: reminding people Indiana didn't get there on a fluke man. 1441 01:13:59,120 --> 01:14:00,479 Speaker 3: This is no lark. 1442 01:14:00,600 --> 01:14:04,680 Speaker 9: I mean, Indiana's gotten after people defensively as much as 1443 01:14:04,680 --> 01:14:08,200 Speaker 9: they have offensively. And but you know, we'll see on 1444 01:14:08,200 --> 01:14:10,439 Speaker 9: Saturday night if Ohio State's offensive line is up to 1445 01:14:10,479 --> 01:14:13,880 Speaker 9: this test. I mean it's a it's a Indiana pledge 1446 01:14:13,920 --> 01:14:16,559 Speaker 9: you pretty straight up gets after you to a certain extent. 1447 01:14:16,640 --> 01:14:19,759 Speaker 9: But it'll be a man the man kind of battle 1448 01:14:19,800 --> 01:14:20,559 Speaker 9: there in the trenches. 1449 01:14:20,680 --> 01:14:22,960 Speaker 1: What about on the other side of things, Tim tim 1450 01:14:23,000 --> 01:14:25,040 Speaker 1: May is my guest Java house, peeling poor guest line. 1451 01:14:25,040 --> 01:14:28,280 Speaker 1: When you look at Mendoza in Indiana trying to keep 1452 01:14:28,360 --> 01:14:33,280 Speaker 1: him clean. This is an elite level defense for Ohio State. 1453 01:14:33,360 --> 01:14:37,559 Speaker 1: For Ohio State and their defensive coverage, their strength starts where. 1454 01:14:39,120 --> 01:14:41,600 Speaker 9: Starts right in the middle of the defensive line with 1455 01:14:41,720 --> 01:14:45,040 Speaker 9: Caden McDonald, who was named the Big Ten Defensive Lineman 1456 01:14:45,160 --> 01:14:49,120 Speaker 9: of the Year just yesterday. You know, a guy who's 1457 01:14:49,160 --> 01:14:51,200 Speaker 9: really come into his own. I mean, you know, the 1458 01:14:51,240 --> 01:14:53,200 Speaker 9: biggest question for us at cover a house state and 1459 01:14:53,280 --> 01:14:55,760 Speaker 9: really nationally because you have to have some questions right 1460 01:14:56,240 --> 01:15:00,000 Speaker 9: about an elite program, was what they were going to do. 1461 01:15:00,040 --> 01:15:03,960 Speaker 9: They were placing eight starters on the defense and all 1462 01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:06,720 Speaker 9: four of the defensive line starters were included in that, 1463 01:15:06,920 --> 01:15:08,759 Speaker 9: and how are they. 1464 01:15:08,600 --> 01:15:11,160 Speaker 3: Going to rise to that challenge? 1465 01:15:11,240 --> 01:15:14,920 Speaker 9: And they really got nobody in the from the interior 1466 01:15:15,240 --> 01:15:18,040 Speaker 9: for the interior defensive line. They got nobody in the 1467 01:15:18,080 --> 01:15:20,640 Speaker 9: transfer portal. So the depth was going to have to 1468 01:15:20,680 --> 01:15:22,800 Speaker 9: come from within. And you know, one of the one 1469 01:15:22,800 --> 01:15:25,680 Speaker 9: of the great things about covering Ohio State over the 1470 01:15:25,760 --> 01:15:28,639 Speaker 9: years is watching guys bubble up, who wait their turn 1471 01:15:28,720 --> 01:15:31,080 Speaker 9: and bubble up, and uh, you know, we've seen that 1472 01:15:31,160 --> 01:15:34,720 Speaker 9: on the defensive front. Caden McDonald's a great example of that. 1473 01:15:34,840 --> 01:15:38,600 Speaker 9: But almost everybody, everybody who's playing this year played a 1474 01:15:38,640 --> 01:15:41,720 Speaker 9: lot last year, especially that in that playoff run. But 1475 01:15:41,840 --> 01:15:44,519 Speaker 9: Caden McDonald and now you've got Taiwan Malone who. 1476 01:15:44,439 --> 01:15:44,920 Speaker 3: Has come on. 1477 01:15:45,120 --> 01:15:48,160 Speaker 9: Edric Houston was a five star freshman a year ago. 1478 01:15:48,640 --> 01:15:50,320 Speaker 9: He kind of had a slow start to this year, 1479 01:15:50,360 --> 01:15:53,320 Speaker 9: helter skelter start, but he's playing extremely well. I'm talking 1480 01:15:53,320 --> 01:15:55,640 Speaker 9: about the guys on the interior. There will a guy 1481 01:15:55,720 --> 01:15:59,240 Speaker 9: named Will Smith Junior. I think everybody remembers Will Smith, 1482 01:15:59,800 --> 01:16:02,640 Speaker 9: the late great Will Smith, who was part of the 1483 01:16:02,680 --> 01:16:06,800 Speaker 9: two thousand and two state national championship as a defensive 1484 01:16:07,439 --> 01:16:11,600 Speaker 9: end of his His son is in namesake is a 1485 01:16:11,640 --> 01:16:14,080 Speaker 9: tackle in the middle there who plays plays a pretty 1486 01:16:14,120 --> 01:16:17,240 Speaker 9: good bit recently. And then you know they got this guy. 1487 01:16:17,280 --> 01:16:19,240 Speaker 9: I don't know if people over in Indiana remember a 1488 01:16:19,280 --> 01:16:22,880 Speaker 9: guy named Kayden Curry, you know from right there in 1489 01:16:22,960 --> 01:16:25,960 Speaker 9: Center Grove, right down the street. You know, he played 1490 01:16:26,040 --> 01:16:30,240 Speaker 9: what three straight h three straight to Indiana Indiana High 1491 01:16:30,240 --> 01:16:33,280 Speaker 9: School state championship games there in Lucas Oil and I 1492 01:16:33,280 --> 01:16:35,519 Speaker 9: think he won two of them. But you know, he 1493 01:16:35,560 --> 01:16:39,719 Speaker 9: and ken Yata Jackson waited their turn behind Jack Sawyer 1494 01:16:40,000 --> 01:16:43,840 Speaker 9: and JT. Towey Moliwow, who returned last year because they 1495 01:16:43,880 --> 01:16:47,240 Speaker 9: wanted another crack at the brass ring. They got the 1496 01:16:47,360 --> 01:16:50,840 Speaker 9: national championship, but they didn't beat Michigan and they didn't win. 1497 01:16:50,880 --> 01:16:52,880 Speaker 9: They didn't get to play for a Big Ten championship 1498 01:16:52,920 --> 01:16:55,760 Speaker 9: for the fourth straight year. Well, Caden Curry has really 1499 01:16:55,800 --> 01:16:59,000 Speaker 9: come on. He and ken YadA Jackson and everybody watching 1500 01:16:59,080 --> 01:17:04,200 Speaker 9: on Saturday number nine, uh Tenyada Jackson just has really 1501 01:17:04,800 --> 01:17:08,479 Speaker 9: really exploded over the last many weeks. And uh so 1502 01:17:08,560 --> 01:17:10,800 Speaker 9: they feel pretty good about that defensive front. So it 1503 01:17:10,840 --> 01:17:13,240 Speaker 9: starts there. And then you've got a guy like Caleb Downs, 1504 01:17:13,680 --> 01:17:16,519 Speaker 9: you know, Big ten Defensive Player of the Year, defensive 1505 01:17:16,560 --> 01:17:20,479 Speaker 9: back of the Year who as in essence, is a 1506 01:17:20,560 --> 01:17:25,040 Speaker 9: quarterback at safety, but he can play in all in 1507 01:17:25,080 --> 01:17:28,680 Speaker 9: almost seven positions, and it's not even that he's has 1508 01:17:28,880 --> 01:17:31,920 Speaker 9: kind of his own special position wherever Matt Patricia puts 1509 01:17:31,960 --> 01:17:34,639 Speaker 9: him or he decides to go on the defense. And 1510 01:17:34,720 --> 01:17:37,040 Speaker 9: you know the transfer from Alabama from a year ago 1511 01:17:37,240 --> 01:17:40,160 Speaker 9: who was part and partial I say defensive year ago. 1512 01:17:40,240 --> 01:17:42,720 Speaker 9: But the way he gets guys lined up, the way 1513 01:17:42,760 --> 01:17:45,719 Speaker 9: he messes with the quarterback's head before, during, and after 1514 01:17:45,760 --> 01:17:48,160 Speaker 9: a snap, things like that, That's that's what they have 1515 01:17:48,240 --> 01:17:49,960 Speaker 9: going for. I mean, they have the outline backer of 1516 01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:53,720 Speaker 9: the year in RVL Reese who has really come on 1517 01:17:53,880 --> 01:17:57,400 Speaker 9: under the Matt Patricia system, and Sonny Styles who is 1518 01:17:57,720 --> 01:18:01,120 Speaker 9: playing at a really high level. And Jalen Playe uh 1519 01:18:01,320 --> 01:18:07,040 Speaker 9: played decently in the in the National Championship run at 1520 01:18:07,120 --> 01:18:09,000 Speaker 9: the other safety spot, well, boy, did he have a 1521 01:18:09,040 --> 01:18:12,280 Speaker 9: game on Saturday at Michigan. And then their two cornerbacks 1522 01:18:12,280 --> 01:18:17,280 Speaker 9: played extensively last year. Jermaine Matthews is a first time 1523 01:18:17,479 --> 01:18:20,000 Speaker 9: full year starter, but he played. He was on the 1524 01:18:20,000 --> 01:18:23,080 Speaker 9: goal line stand when they when they held Texas off 1525 01:18:23,120 --> 01:18:25,679 Speaker 9: last year when Jack Sawyer had the big return, and 1526 01:18:25,400 --> 01:18:27,800 Speaker 9: uh and of course Davis and Nick but Nosen. If 1527 01:18:27,800 --> 01:18:30,040 Speaker 9: he could just keep from grabbing people, he may be 1528 01:18:30,080 --> 01:18:32,320 Speaker 9: as good a corner's years in the country. And I'm not, 1529 01:18:33,240 --> 01:18:35,080 Speaker 9: you know, I'm not. I don't think this is uperberly. 1530 01:18:35,120 --> 01:18:36,760 Speaker 9: You know how Say's got the number one defense in 1531 01:18:36,800 --> 01:18:39,080 Speaker 9: the country for a reason, and you know. 1532 01:18:39,080 --> 01:18:41,880 Speaker 1: And what's fascinating about this matchup is right there and 1533 01:18:41,960 --> 01:18:44,200 Speaker 1: I get it. I mean, I don't disagree with that. 1534 01:18:44,280 --> 01:18:46,760 Speaker 1: But Indy, you know, and then you got Indiana. Statistically, 1535 01:18:46,920 --> 01:18:49,920 Speaker 1: the areas in which these two teams, these two programs 1536 01:18:50,120 --> 01:18:52,040 Speaker 1: are one and two or two and one. I mean, 1537 01:18:52,080 --> 01:18:55,960 Speaker 1: it's it's remarkable the the I think these are. This 1538 01:18:56,040 --> 01:18:58,639 Speaker 1: is clearly, tim I do. I think this is clearly 1539 01:18:58,680 --> 01:19:01,560 Speaker 1: the two best teams in the country. The question is 1540 01:19:01,560 --> 01:19:03,400 Speaker 1: is there a gap there. Now let's get to the 1541 01:19:03,439 --> 01:19:06,679 Speaker 1: other side of this. I talked to Graham Rayhill about 1542 01:19:06,680 --> 01:19:10,120 Speaker 1: this earlier this week. I want your perspective. Has Ohio 1543 01:19:10,240 --> 01:19:13,960 Speaker 1: State held close to the vest their cards offensively? Have 1544 01:19:14,120 --> 01:19:18,000 Speaker 1: we seen this offensive Ohio State play on all of 1545 01:19:18,040 --> 01:19:20,520 Speaker 1: the cylinders with which they're capable of playing. 1546 01:19:22,320 --> 01:19:22,559 Speaker 3: Well? 1547 01:19:22,640 --> 01:19:24,920 Speaker 9: I think the big question about Ohio State, you know, 1548 01:19:25,360 --> 01:19:28,599 Speaker 9: remember the Saint Louis Rams, the best, you know, the 1549 01:19:28,640 --> 01:19:32,560 Speaker 9: greatest shown turf yep, you know. The big question was 1550 01:19:32,680 --> 01:19:35,640 Speaker 9: whether I they could go on ice or snow or 1551 01:19:35,680 --> 01:19:38,760 Speaker 9: the four wheel drive kind of approach, which is what 1552 01:19:38,800 --> 01:19:43,080 Speaker 9: they did last week offensively against Michigan. I mean, they 1553 01:19:43,120 --> 01:19:45,719 Speaker 9: had a twenty plate twelve minute drive in the middle 1554 01:19:45,760 --> 01:19:48,640 Speaker 9: of the second half that was pretty cool, except that 1555 01:19:48,640 --> 01:19:50,160 Speaker 9: he just score a touchdown and end up kicking a 1556 01:19:50,160 --> 01:19:52,639 Speaker 9: field go with so Ryan. They didn't give it an 1557 01:19:52,880 --> 01:19:55,040 Speaker 9: a plus plus on the drive. But as far as 1558 01:19:55,080 --> 01:19:58,200 Speaker 9: eating clocket was But I think you've seen a lot 1559 01:19:58,240 --> 01:20:00,719 Speaker 9: of what Ohio State's capable of. But they thrown things 1560 01:20:00,760 --> 01:20:03,800 Speaker 9: out there of which you know, there are tangents that 1561 01:20:03,840 --> 01:20:07,200 Speaker 9: they where they can go from the uh, the four 1562 01:20:07,280 --> 01:20:09,760 Speaker 9: tight end. Look, they give you that the goal line. 1563 01:20:09,800 --> 01:20:11,599 Speaker 9: One of the tight ends ends up being a fullback 1564 01:20:11,680 --> 01:20:14,120 Speaker 9: in that a lot in an A formation, but they'll 1565 01:20:14,160 --> 01:20:17,599 Speaker 9: have four tight ends on the field. And you think 1566 01:20:17,640 --> 01:20:19,320 Speaker 9: you've seen all of those things that you have, and 1567 01:20:19,400 --> 01:20:21,360 Speaker 9: I mean there are other ways they can go with 1568 01:20:21,520 --> 01:20:23,840 Speaker 9: that formation in terms of running and throwing the ball. 1569 01:20:24,400 --> 01:20:25,520 Speaker 9: That's just an example. 1570 01:20:25,760 --> 01:20:26,719 Speaker 3: But you know, you've. 1571 01:20:26,520 --> 01:20:29,720 Speaker 9: Seen Julian saying, I mean Urban Meyer the other day 1572 01:20:29,760 --> 01:20:33,000 Speaker 9: and he has no reason to really say this, but 1573 01:20:33,200 --> 01:20:36,160 Speaker 9: thinks he might be the most accurate quarterback in college 1574 01:20:36,200 --> 01:20:39,320 Speaker 9: football history. I mean, to watch this guy throw the ball, 1575 01:20:39,400 --> 01:20:44,240 Speaker 9: it's remarkable. And the wind and snow or the yeah, 1576 01:20:44,240 --> 01:20:45,479 Speaker 9: there was a decent breeze. 1577 01:20:45,560 --> 01:20:46,479 Speaker 3: Let's put it that a way. 1578 01:20:46,520 --> 01:20:49,559 Speaker 9: You know, in Michigan Stadium last week, the big house, 1579 01:20:49,640 --> 01:20:51,599 Speaker 9: so they need to shut the windows, I guess. But 1580 01:20:52,160 --> 01:20:55,080 Speaker 9: at the bottom mine us he uh, you know, he 1581 01:20:55,080 --> 01:20:58,160 Speaker 9: he completed touchdown passes to all three of his starting 1582 01:20:58,200 --> 01:21:03,360 Speaker 9: wide receivers, Jeremiah Smith, Carneal Tate on that deep post. 1583 01:21:04,200 --> 01:21:08,439 Speaker 9: Of course it broke Michigan's back, but also Brandon Ennis. 1584 01:21:08,520 --> 01:21:11,559 Speaker 9: They're kind of like forgotten about third wide receiver in 1585 01:21:11,600 --> 01:21:12,080 Speaker 9: that group. 1586 01:21:13,080 --> 01:21:14,679 Speaker 3: They've got all kinds of things. 1587 01:21:14,720 --> 01:21:15,360 Speaker 1: They can go to. 1588 01:21:15,360 --> 01:21:17,320 Speaker 9: From a throwing standpoint, like you said, if they can 1589 01:21:17,400 --> 01:21:21,400 Speaker 9: protect and Julian saying has shown the ability, you know, 1590 01:21:21,600 --> 01:21:25,000 Speaker 9: to elude pressure and do it in sort of a 1591 01:21:25,080 --> 01:21:27,840 Speaker 9: smooth kind of way. And he has also shown the 1592 01:21:27,960 --> 01:21:30,840 Speaker 9: willingness and ability to run if he has to. You know, 1593 01:21:30,880 --> 01:21:34,559 Speaker 9: when he came out of Carlsbad, California h two years 1594 01:21:34,560 --> 01:21:37,599 Speaker 9: ago and initially signed with Alabama, he was considered one 1595 01:21:37,600 --> 01:21:40,639 Speaker 9: of the elite dual threat quarterbacks in the country. People 1596 01:21:40,640 --> 01:21:43,559 Speaker 9: forget that and his high school coach. I've had him 1597 01:21:43,600 --> 01:21:47,439 Speaker 9: on my tim May Show several times on the like 1598 01:21:47,520 --> 01:21:50,400 Speaker 9: you said, fans strange sports just talking about him and 1599 01:21:50,439 --> 01:21:54,599 Speaker 9: how he's sort of underestimated. I mean, he's even underestimating how. 1600 01:21:54,600 --> 01:21:55,120 Speaker 3: Tall he is. 1601 01:21:55,160 --> 01:21:57,840 Speaker 9: People were thinking he was like Drew Brees height him. 1602 01:21:57,880 --> 01:22:01,160 Speaker 9: He's like six', one logit six', one and but he's 1603 01:22:01,160 --> 01:22:04,719 Speaker 9: just so smooth and sort of like unflappable and also 1604 01:22:05,160 --> 01:22:07,800 Speaker 9: doesn't say a whole lot that you you kind of, 1605 01:22:07,800 --> 01:22:11,400 Speaker 9: go how good is this? Guy And, uh he's what 1606 01:22:11,600 --> 01:22:15,280 Speaker 9: completing seventy eight percent of his. Passes, uh that's pretty damn. 1607 01:22:15,320 --> 01:22:18,639 Speaker 9: Good and he's only thrown five. Interceptions one was last 1608 01:22:18,640 --> 01:22:21,360 Speaker 9: week Against, michigan and then then he came back and 1609 01:22:21,560 --> 01:22:24,639 Speaker 9: Cut michigan's heart, out you, know with some pretty good. 1610 01:22:24,680 --> 01:22:26,960 Speaker 9: Passing so they feel pretty good about.

Goes, well if that was the case 2204 01:53:17,240 --> 01:53:20,320 Speaker 11: for The Jacksonville, jaguars they should be four and, eight 2205 01:53:20,479 --> 01:53:23,120 Speaker 11: not eight and. Four based on the Season Trevor lawrence 2206 01:53:23,160 --> 01:53:26,200 Speaker 11: is having because he leads THE nfl in turnovers with, 2207 01:53:26,280 --> 01:53:30,960 Speaker 11: fourteen he ranked second in interceptions with. Eleven he's got 2208 01:53:30,960 --> 01:53:33,840 Speaker 11: the fourth worst passer rating in THE nfl so far this, 2209 01:53:33,960 --> 01:53:37,160 Speaker 11: year right around eighty. Six in, fact he only Has 2210 01:53:37,520 --> 01:53:40,920 Speaker 11: Last sunday was his first game all the year with 2211 01:53:41,000 --> 01:53:43,599 Speaker 11: a passer rating over one, hundred and that was against 2212 01:53:43,640 --> 01:53:47,280 Speaker 11: a very Terrible titans.

TENNESSEE i Know 2214 01:53:49,720 --> 01:53:52,920 Speaker 11: tennessee's not very, good but they won the game by 2215 01:53:52,960 --> 01:53:54,920 Speaker 11: like twenty five. Points but if you look at the 2216 01:53:54,960 --> 01:53:58,639 Speaker 11: box score and watch the, Game jacksonville in that game 2217 01:53:58,720 --> 01:54:03,200 Speaker 11: had seven and they went three and out five times 2218 01:54:03,600 --> 01:54:05,960 Speaker 11: And then another thing that's really weird about their team 2219 01:54:06,479 --> 01:54:08,840 Speaker 11: is that they are twenty six in THE nfl and 2220 01:54:08,960 --> 01:54:12,599 Speaker 11: third down offense third down conversion, rate but they're ace 2221 01:54:12,880 --> 01:54:15,200 Speaker 11: in time and. Possession, LIKE i don't know how those 2222 01:54:15,280 --> 01:54:17,360 Speaker 11: two things can exist at the same. Time how can 2223 01:54:17,400 --> 01:54:19,400 Speaker 11: you hang on to the ball for that long but 2224 01:54:19,479 --> 01:54:23,000 Speaker 11: be that bad on third? Down but they're really extreme 2225 01:54:23,080 --> 01:54:25,080 Speaker 11: in a lot of different. Areas they're really good at 2226 01:54:25,080 --> 01:54:28,960 Speaker 11: taking the football away on. Defense they are really good 2227 01:54:28,960 --> 01:54:31,439 Speaker 11: at stopping the run on. Defense in, fact they're number 2228 01:54:31,479 --> 01:54:35,080 Speaker 11: one in rushing, defense giving up only about eighty two 2229 01:54:35,160 --> 01:54:37,320 Speaker 11: yards a, game which is really concerning for The. Colts 2230 01:54:37,400 --> 01:54:40,280 Speaker 11: they try to kickstart that offense again on the ground 2231 01:54:40,320 --> 01:54:43,520 Speaker 11: With Jonathan. Taylor so that's kind of the long and 2232 01:54:43,560 --> 01:54:46,520 Speaker 11: short of it With. Jacksonville they're a good, team but 2233 01:54:46,560 --> 01:54:49,040 Speaker 11: they don't blow you away in a lot of different important. 2234 01:54:49,080 --> 01:54:52,840 Speaker 11: Categories but they're just really good at a few different 2235 01:54:52,880 --> 01:54:55,760 Speaker 11: things that that's kind of carrying their, water if you, 2236 01:54:55,840 --> 01:54:58,880 Speaker 11: will to an eight and four starting a three game winning. 2237 01:54:58,880 --> 01:55:02,320 Speaker 1: Streak Here matt in talking About Matt taylor is our, 2238 01:55:02,400 --> 01:55:04,560 Speaker 1: guest the voice of The.

Lot BUT i think it is fair to 2264 01:56:27,840 --> 01:56:31,560 Speaker 11: say That Daniel jones is dealing with with something right 2265 01:56:31,600 --> 01:56:34,120 Speaker 11: because he's on the injury, report there are reports out, 2266 01:56:34,240 --> 01:56:37,000 Speaker 11: there and again there's been a special pad made for. 2267 01:56:37,080 --> 01:56:40,120 Speaker 11: HIM i think the biggest thing that you're seeing in 2268 01:56:40,200 --> 01:56:44,240 Speaker 11: terms of the overall you, know for lack of a better, 2269 01:56:44,360 --> 01:56:48,360 Speaker 11: term like the ramifications of the injury so far is 2270 01:56:48,480 --> 01:56:53,360 Speaker 11: just His they don't call a ton of design and 2271 01:56:53,440 --> 01:56:55,640 Speaker 11: direct runs for. Him they really haven't been doing that 2272 01:56:55,720 --> 01:56:58,480 Speaker 11: at all so far the. Season but you, KNOW i 2273 01:56:58,520 --> 01:57:03,000 Speaker 11: go back three weeks ago before the bye In. BERLIN i, 2274 01:57:03,000 --> 01:57:05,720 Speaker 11: mean he had five quarterback scrambles in that game for 2275 01:57:05,760 --> 01:57:09,240 Speaker 11: about fifty, yards and that and his play and that 2276 01:57:09,400 --> 01:57:11,440 Speaker 11: part of his game was a huge reason why they 2277 01:57:11,520 --> 01:57:13,400 Speaker 11: won that. Game you, know you go back to third 2278 01:57:13,400 --> 01:57:16,240 Speaker 11: and twenty one late in the game and he scrambles 2279 01:57:16,240 --> 01:57:18,360 Speaker 11: out of the pocket for nineteen yards to put The 2280 01:57:18,360 --> 01:57:21,120 Speaker 11: colts in a very favorable fourth and, two which they 2281 01:57:21,160 --> 01:57:22,800 Speaker 11: go on to. Convert and then they go on to 2282 01:57:22,840 --> 01:57:25,720 Speaker 11: win the game in. Overtime but in the last two, 2283 01:57:25,760 --> 01:57:29,560 Speaker 11: games he only has two quarterback, scrambles and If i'm 2284 01:57:29,640 --> 01:57:32,160 Speaker 11: right about, THIS i think he only has one design 2285 01:57:32,320 --> 01:57:35,120 Speaker 11: rollout and that was kind of a miniature rollout where 2286 01:57:35,120 --> 01:57:38,760 Speaker 11: he Hit Tyler warren on a touchdown in the third 2287 01:57:38,840 --> 01:57:42,080 Speaker 11: quarter or early fourth, QUARTER i should, say excuse me 2288 01:57:42,120 --> 01:57:46,000 Speaker 11: Against houston the other. Day so you know also, too 2289 01:57:46,080 --> 01:57:48,480 Speaker 11: you know you Had Tyler warren motion in the backfield 2290 01:57:48,520 --> 01:57:51,280 Speaker 11: and dip under center and trying to run a quarterback. 2291 01:57:51,320 --> 01:57:54,080 Speaker 11: Sneak you, Know Daniel jones normally that guy for The. 2292 01:57:54,080 --> 01:57:57,080 Speaker 11: Colts he's been really successful in doing that this. YEAR 2293 01:57:57,080 --> 01:58:00,480 Speaker 11: i think he's eleven for twelve on quarterback sneaks inverting 2294 01:58:00,520 --> 01:58:03,440 Speaker 11: on third and short or fourth in. Short SO i 2295 01:58:03,440 --> 01:58:05,320 Speaker 11: think that's the biggest component that we're going to have 2296 01:58:05,320 --> 01:58:06,720 Speaker 11: to keep an eye on for The colts in this 2297 01:58:06,880 --> 01:58:10,760 Speaker 11: offense Is Daniel, jones's, uh you, know the football in 2298 01:58:10,840 --> 01:58:14,839 Speaker 11: his hands either under center on quarterback sneaks or design 2299 01:58:15,000 --> 01:58:18,480 Speaker 11: boots or, scrambles BECAUSE i, think you, know that's that's 2300 01:58:18,520 --> 01:58:20,120 Speaker 11: the part of the offense WHERE i think he can 2301 01:58:20,160 --> 01:58:24,080 Speaker 11: be most effective running the football when he's fully, healthy but, 2302 01:58:24,120 --> 01:58:27,640 Speaker 11: obviously you, know with That phiebil, injury it might be 2303 01:58:27,840 --> 01:58:30,959 Speaker 11: hindering his ability to do, that and Maybe Shane styche's 2304 01:58:31,000 --> 01:58:33,560 Speaker 11: willingness to call plays where he's outside of the. 2305 01:58:33,600 --> 01:58:36,960 Speaker 1: Pocket, matt what was your when you were a? Student 2306 01:58:37,600 --> 01:58:39,880 Speaker 1: what was your best?

Okay So i'm going to 2318 01:59:13,240 --> 01:59:16,920 Speaker 1: present to you a, theory and THEN i want you 2319 01:59:16,960 --> 01:59:18,960 Speaker 1: to grade ME a TO f and tell me whether 2320 01:59:19,000 --> 01:59:21,240 Speaker 1: or Not i'm reverting back to my days of, algebra 2321 01:59:21,480 --> 01:59:23,960 Speaker 1: or if it's more so Like, english WHERE i got a's. 2322 01:59:24,160 --> 01:59:26,600 Speaker 3: OKAY i love. 2323 01:59:26,600 --> 01:59:29,680 Speaker 1: IT i mentioned this. EARLIER i thought one of the 2324 01:59:31,400 --> 01:59:35,920 Speaker 1: overlooked aspects of what took place On sunday was not 2325 01:59:36,160 --> 01:59:39,120 Speaker 1: even the fact that we Know Daniel jones and the 2326 01:59:39,160 --> 01:59:43,480 Speaker 1: injury and the challenges that created for his, mobility but 2327 01:59:43,640 --> 01:59:47,800 Speaker 1: one of the aspects of that that further complicated it 2328 01:59:47,840 --> 01:59:51,040 Speaker 1: was the fact That Tyler warren was coming off of 2329 01:59:51,160 --> 01:59:54,960 Speaker 1: illness and, theoretically or one would, assume was not necessarily 2330 01:59:54,960 --> 01:59:57,400 Speaker 1: one hundred. Percent and while he was utilized on some, 2331 01:59:57,600 --> 02:00:01,440 Speaker 1: plays the overall name fature of having him as that 2332 02:00:01,600 --> 02:00:04,360 Speaker 1: safety net that you could drop off to and turn 2333 02:00:04,400 --> 02:00:06,760 Speaker 1: a two yard play into an eight yard play after, 2334 02:00:06,920 --> 02:00:10,920 Speaker 1: contact et cetera was kind of nullified or taken, away 2335 02:00:11,360 --> 02:00:13,800 Speaker 1: and that made it even that much more challenging For 2336 02:00:13,920 --> 02:00:16,800 Speaker 1: Daniel jones because he didn't have kind of his safety 2337 02:00:16,840 --> 02:00:17,840 Speaker 1: net bailout. 2338 02:00:17,880 --> 02:00:18,200 Speaker 3: Option. 2339 02:00:18,360 --> 02:00:20,360 Speaker 1: There your, GRADE. 2340 02:00:21,520 --> 02:00:25,680 Speaker 11: I give it A b, minus, okay BECAUSE i and 2341 02:00:25,720 --> 02:00:27,640 Speaker 11: the reason why IS i THINK i agree with you 2342 02:00:27,680 --> 02:00:30,440 Speaker 11: more THAN i disagree with you on, it because you 2343 02:00:30,480 --> 02:00:34,480 Speaker 11: know you're. RIGHT i, Mean Tyler warren wasn't one hundred. 2344 02:00:34,520 --> 02:00:38,280 Speaker 11: Percent there was one play WHERE i, THOUGHT i, mean you, 2345 02:00:38,360 --> 02:00:40,080 Speaker 11: know there's a million plays throughout the course of a, 2346 02:00:40,160 --> 02:00:42,720 Speaker 11: game right and who. KNOWS i think it's probably only 2347 02:00:42,800 --> 02:00:46,360 Speaker 11: fair for him to really answer, it but just. Speculating 2348 02:00:46,400 --> 02:00:50,040 Speaker 11: there was one play WHERE i THOUGHT i really noticed 2349 02:00:50,080 --> 02:00:53,040 Speaker 11: it where it was kind of A i forget what 2350 02:00:53,200 --> 02:00:55,080 Speaker 11: stage of the game it, is in the middle of the, 2351 02:00:55,120 --> 02:00:58,000 Speaker 11: game either late second, quarter early third, quarter but they 2352 02:00:58,080 --> 02:01:02,400 Speaker 11: Hit Tyler warren on a quick out and and he 2353 02:01:02,600 --> 02:01:05,280 Speaker 11: got about three yards on the, play and he was quickly, 2354 02:01:05,320 --> 02:01:08,440 Speaker 11: TACKLED i think by a middle linebacker For HOUSTON a 2355 02:01:08,560 --> 02:01:12,320 Speaker 11: He's Al. Shire and it was a play WHERE i just, thought, 2356 02:01:12,640 --> 02:01:17,920 Speaker 11: like a fully, healthy non Illness Tyler warren is able 2357 02:01:17,960 --> 02:01:21,200 Speaker 11: to kind of get out of that tackle and or you, 2358 02:01:21,200 --> 02:01:23,920 Speaker 11: know get up field quicker than he'd actually did with 2359 02:01:24,000 --> 02:01:26,160 Speaker 11: the ball in his. Hands you, know he had a 2360 02:01:26,200 --> 02:01:30,040 Speaker 11: three yard, gain and fully Healthy Tyler warren on that 2361 02:01:30,080 --> 02:01:32,440 Speaker 11: PLAY i think picks up like eight yards and helps 2362 02:01:32,440 --> 02:01:35,240 Speaker 11: The colts in terms, of you, know better down in 2363 02:01:35,320 --> 02:01:38,840 Speaker 11: distance and stay on schedule a little bit. Better and also, 2364 02:01:38,880 --> 02:01:40,720 Speaker 11: too you, know case in, point he had a or 2365 02:01:40,800 --> 02:01:43,680 Speaker 11: a season low and thus career low because he's a 2366 02:01:43,720 --> 02:01:47,080 Speaker 11: rookie twenty two yards in that game and just WASN'T 2367 02:01:47,120 --> 02:01:49,800 Speaker 11: i just didn't feel like he was the Same Tyler. 2368 02:01:49,880 --> 02:01:53,160 Speaker 11: Warren and whether that's a fair observation or, not or 2369 02:01:54,000 --> 02:01:56,880 Speaker 11: maybe that's reading into it a little bit too, much but, 2370 02:01:57,600 --> 02:02:00,160 Speaker 11: YEAH i didn't, notice you, know for the moment to 2371 02:02:00,200 --> 02:02:02,040 Speaker 11: part the same thing about, war and he just looked 2372 02:02:02,040 --> 02:02:05,040 Speaker 11: a little BIT i don't, know like half steps slower or. 2373 02:02:05,080 --> 02:02:08,440 Speaker 11: Whatever but you, KNOW i think hopefully with with another 2374 02:02:08,480 --> 02:02:10,920 Speaker 11: week of, recovery he's able to come back and play 2375 02:02:10,920 --> 02:02:14,640 Speaker 11: at a at a higher, rate fuller, speed and hopefully 2376 02:02:14,640 --> 02:02:15,040 Speaker 11: he's fully. 2377 02:02:15,080 --> 02:02:17,600 Speaker 1: Healthy that sounds like an eight to. Me you're a tough. 2378 02:02:17,640 --> 02:02:21,360 Speaker 11: Grader, well, yeah LIKE i, SAID i, mean we're we're 2379 02:02:21,440 --> 02:02:24,640 Speaker 11: we're speculating on. That So i'm kind of, Like i'm 2380 02:02:25,240 --> 02:02:27,840 Speaker 11: that's like a, scantron you, know like half the scantron 2381 02:02:27,920 --> 02:02:28,400 Speaker 11: was ripped. 2382 02:02:28,440 --> 02:02:31,000 Speaker 1: Off hold, On so the theory gets a better grade 2383 02:02:31,000 --> 02:02:32,520 Speaker 1: than the actual proof of the. 2384 02:02:32,520 --> 02:02:35,160 Speaker 3: Theory, right that's, fair that's. Fair, yeah that's. 2385 02:02:35,200 --> 02:02:37,760 Speaker 11: Fair good good, hypothesis, right that's. 2386 02:02:37,800 --> 02:02:40,280 Speaker 1: Right, right we had the, control we had the. Hypothesis 2387 02:02:40,280 --> 02:02:41,960 Speaker 1: we just don't have the proof at this point that we. 2388 02:02:41,960 --> 02:02:44,640 Speaker 11: Need, well there's just there's there's too many variables right. There, 2389 02:02:44,680 --> 02:02:46,960 Speaker 11: right wasn't that a good science, word like too many? 2390 02:02:47,040 --> 02:02:48,160 Speaker 3: Variables, yes to. 2391 02:02:48,240 --> 02:02:51,680 Speaker 1: Provethes by the, way speaking of. PROOF i have to 2392 02:02:51,720 --> 02:02:53,520 Speaker 1: tell this story every time The colts are getting ready 2393 02:02:53,520 --> 02:02:55,600 Speaker 1: to go To.
