1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:01,160 Speaker 1: Now I will say this. 2 00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:06,920 Speaker 2: You know, we used to have back when, years ago, 3 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:08,719 Speaker 2: when I first started doing radio in town, there was 4 00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:12,440 Speaker 2: a guy, really good dude. Cody's his name, Really good guy, 5 00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:16,960 Speaker 2: and Cody used to like to partake in afternoon relaxation, 6 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:19,200 Speaker 2: usually one third of the way through the hour after 7 00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:24,079 Speaker 2: four o'clock, and for that reason, Cody gave himself the 8 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 2: self proclaimed nickname of Toast. He would call the radio 9 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 2: show when I was doing afternoons, usually in about twenty 10 00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:31,880 Speaker 2: after four, and he'd be like, yeah, man, it's Toast, 11 00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:33,919 Speaker 2: and I'd have to remind him the show is over 12 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:35,279 Speaker 2: at six because it take him a while to get 13 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:38,839 Speaker 2: to his point. Good dude, though he would be perfectly 14 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 2: and appropriately named for today in terms of being out 15 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,760 Speaker 2: here at Grand Park in Westfield because it's a little toasty. 16 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:49,600 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna lie to you. I will actually and 17 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:51,400 Speaker 2: I won't mention it too many times. I mean, I 18 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 2: don't know, somewhere between three and two hundred the number 19 00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 2: of times the commitment that I am showing for you 20 00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 2: Colts fans, for you listeners of this show, that I'm 21 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:03,320 Speaker 2: willing to and I know it. Listen, don't buy into 22 00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 2: the hype. Don't buy the hype. Everything you see that 23 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 2: says don't go outside, heat advisory, dangerous, drink, plenty of water, 24 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 2: all that. 25 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:13,680 Speaker 1: Don't pay attention to any of that because your favorite. 26 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 2: Radio host says, no, I'm willing to sit in an 27 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 2: open field an hour after practice ended and do a 28 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,200 Speaker 2: radio show to bring content to you folks. That's the 29 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 2: commitment to dedication I have. There is a slight breeze 30 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 2: going through, so that's nice. It is day number two 31 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,760 Speaker 2: for Colts practice and Colts camp here at Grand Park 32 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 2: in Westfield, and James Boyd is I don't know if 33 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:36,480 Speaker 2: James just enjoys the toast feeling. 34 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 1: It's a little. 35 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 2: Yesterday it was around two, so it wasn't terrible because 36 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 2: it was only the last hour of the show. But 37 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 2: I will say around two o'clock is when the humidity 38 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 2: really picked up and it was like, whoa, it is 39 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 2: warm out here. Matter of fact, there was a guy 40 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 2: yesterday mowing the field that I looked and he just 41 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 2: stopped at the thirty five yard line, put that bad 42 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 2: boy and parking left. And then it was me and 43 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 2: the rooster that thinks that it's four in the morning. 44 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 2: That was calling behind me. But it was cool because 45 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,000 Speaker 2: there was a lot to talk about yesterday, and there's 46 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 2: going to be a lot to talk about today. There's 47 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 2: going to be a lot to talk about today because 48 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 2: and I'm going to give a pop quiz for all 49 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 2: of you folks, the listeners of this program, because I know, 50 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 2: and I trust, and I believe in the aptitude, the 51 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 2: intellect of all of you, the instinct of. 52 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 1: All of you. You're a smart audience. 53 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 2: This company, querying Company, we have a rigorous, rigorous process 54 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 2: by which we do hiring, and that includes making sure 55 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 2: that you have the finest of education. And if you didn't, 56 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 2: you consulted Georgia O'Leary and lied about it anyway, and 57 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 2: so we hired you. I mean, we're very very on 58 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 2: top of it here. And so I know the wisdom 59 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 2: that all of you have, and I will give you 60 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 2: a glimpse behind the curtain. And that glimpse behind the 61 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 2: curtain is this on each day for the colts camp, 62 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 2: because the practice ends at eleven o'clock. Tomorrow will be 63 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 2: closer to a eleven fifteen. But by practice ending at 64 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 2: eleven o'clock, that affords us the opportunity to conduct interviews 65 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 2: as soon as the practice is over and then run 66 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,920 Speaker 2: them in the show within the hour or so. And 67 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 2: I did an interview earlier that I believe because sometimes 68 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 2: you can tell I've done this for a while, and 69 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 2: sometimes you can tell when someone says something you're like 70 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:32,239 Speaker 2: that feels like a news nugget that feels like that 71 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 2: may grow some legs and. 72 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: Move at the pace that. 73 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 2: Is suddenly going to become like a small story that 74 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 2: then people are going to start talking about it. And 75 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 2: the interview that I did with Bernard Ryman, who I 76 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 2: think is going to be a very very important player 77 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 2: already is a very important player for the Colts, but 78 00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 2: a very important player, and he said something about halfway 79 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 2: through the interview where I thought to myself, you know what, 80 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 2: my mom and seven other people will be listening to 81 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 2: this probably when this happens. But if my mom gets 82 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 2: out her laptop, she will hear that quote from Bernard Ryman, 83 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 2: and that may become a news story. Here in day 84 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:18,359 Speaker 2: number two of Colts Camp, James Boyd watched practice earlier today. 85 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: We will get reaction from him. 86 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,679 Speaker 2: But before we do so, Eddie, if you could please 87 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 2: with the breaking news sounder, this just in in the 88 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 2: last couple of minutes. There are multiple reports now that 89 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 2: the man who first broke through in nineteen eighty three 90 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 2: was the first that I knew of him as Thunderlips 91 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 2: in Rocky three and became one of the most beloved 92 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 2: figures within professional wrestling, and later went on to obviously 93 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 2: a reality television series. Some polarization, but at the same time, 94 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 2: I think it is safe to say by most accounts 95 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,039 Speaker 2: a beloved figure for the course of his career. Hulk 96 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 2: Hogan passing away earlier today, that announcement just coming within 97 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 2: the last thirty minutes or so, that hul Cogan so 98 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 2: Ozzy Osbourne Hulk Hogan within the last couple of days, 99 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,599 Speaker 2: and certainly I know there were plenty plenty of fans. 100 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 2: I don't know if you look at the rise of 101 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 2: professional wrestling, the WWE. Admittedly that is not as much 102 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 2: my wheelhouse as many Mark Dyton comes to mind in 103 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 2: that regard, but certainly if you were a kid of 104 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,919 Speaker 2: the eighties and the nineties, it was impossible to not 105 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,719 Speaker 2: know of the impact of professional wrestling and the entertainment 106 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 2: scale and the arena and stadium scale. And I don't 107 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,720 Speaker 2: know that anybody was a bigger figure in all of 108 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:37,160 Speaker 2: that than hul Cogan. He was the absolute face of 109 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 2: and I think, to a great extent, the center of 110 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 2: the rise of that sport. Over time, it has not 111 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 2: been I don't know. And I'm just seeing this right now, Eddie. 112 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 2: You can chime in if you saw it differently than I. 113 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 2: I simply saw the headline of it, did not get 114 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,600 Speaker 2: a chance to go into it. I don't know if 115 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 2: a cause or if he had been ill of why 116 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,720 Speaker 2: Hulk Hogan passed away at the age of seventy one, 117 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 2: So I'm not sure if that was a sudden thing 118 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,160 Speaker 2: or a private illness. Either way, Eddie, were you a 119 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 2: fan of professional wrestling in that era? 120 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:11,119 Speaker 1: Not really? 121 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 3: Jake and TMZ reporting that it was a cardiac arrest, 122 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 3: That's what the quote was that they have about arriving 123 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,280 Speaker 3: to his home early Thursday morning. But no, I was 124 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,160 Speaker 3: never really into pro wrestling at all. 125 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 2: Okay, so there you go. Cardiac arrest, so obviously hard 126 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 2: for Hulk Hogan. But and I realized obviously hul Cogan 127 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:37,479 Speaker 2: was his stage name. And you know, if you're gonna 128 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 2: go in in, you know, Terry Balaiyah, I believe Balia 129 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 2: was his his actual birth name, but hul Cogan passing 130 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 2: away in terms of practice from earlier today for the 131 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 2: Colts Camp. In this day number two, practice number two, 132 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 2: I made a pack to myself. I'm a sweeter, more 133 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:57,039 Speaker 2: sensitive guy. 134 00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: I just am. 135 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,479 Speaker 2: You know, like this weekend for the IndyCar Race, the 136 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 2: title sponsor's Java House and they are partnered with the 137 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:09,159 Speaker 2: Indianapolis based Splendor. Splenda is a sweetener and you know 138 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 2: splendors made here. So I'm a more sweet guy. So 139 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 2: I'm the I'm the sweeter splendid version of the midday 140 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 2: show here on this radio station, your midday option. So 141 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 2: I'm not going to, in any way, shape or form, 142 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 2: after one day of a one hour practice make any 143 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 2: sort of a flippant comment about the fact that DeForest Buckner, 144 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 2: Taekwon Lewis, Kenny Moore the Second, and Braden Smith all 145 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 2: got a veteran rest day today. I'm not, in any way, 146 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 2: shape or form gonna make any comment about the fact 147 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 2: that after you know, an hour of practice on day 148 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 2: number one, that it's important to go ahead and make 149 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 2: sure those guys are rested. And you know, you got 150 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 2: to get your rest. You got to get your rest 151 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 2: and it was pretty hot yesterday. If they needed like 152 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 2: ivy fluids or something, I get it. And I'm being 153 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 2: totally serious when I say that, But I think it 154 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 2: was an already written in veteran rest day for those 155 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 2: four again, Horse Buckner, Taekwon Lewis, Kenny Moore, and Braden 156 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 2: Smith all with the rest day today. No practice after 157 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 2: one day. Load management, folks, load management. But in terms 158 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 2: of the on field activity today, the probably the biggest 159 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 2: story is the fact that Anthony Richardson threw an interception. 160 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 2: And I don't know how much you read into that 161 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 2: he threw an interception to Juju Brince. If you were 162 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 2: a glass half full guy, you would say, great play 163 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 2: by Juju Brents. But it also was not a great 164 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 2: throw from Anthony Richardson. And I think that we're still 165 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:35,079 Speaker 2: going to see that. This reminds me the Anthony Richardson 166 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:39,680 Speaker 2: watch reminds me to a little bit for a little 167 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 2: bit of the if you remember Peyton Manning. Peyton Manning 168 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:50,839 Speaker 2: when he was coming off of the neck injury, we 169 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,679 Speaker 2: were waiting for the nerves to regenerate themselves, and so 170 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 2: he would have throws and I'm talking about more so 171 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,320 Speaker 2: when he was with Denver in that first year. But 172 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 2: he had some throws that would be he would let 173 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 2: go of it and you're like, where in the world 174 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 2: is that going? And then other throws where you could 175 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 2: tell he was putting everything into it and it just 176 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:09,199 Speaker 2: didn't have enough oomph. And there were a lot of 177 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 2: just kind of floating ducks that Peyton Manning was throwing 178 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 2: around at that time. And I don't know if it's 179 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 2: the shoulder. I don't know if it is you know, footwork. 180 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 2: There are a number of different ways that you can 181 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 2: look at it, but with any of them it it 182 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 2: very clearly with Anthony Richardson, he is still trying to 183 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 2: find his exact footing. And you know as a quarterback. 184 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 2: I don't mean literally his footing. I mean still the 185 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 2: mechanics and just finding the precision as a quarterback is 186 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 2: something that Anthony Richardson is searching for without question. And 187 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 2: by the way, yes, when I say that they from 188 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:53,719 Speaker 2: a whenever there is a celebrity passing and they say 189 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,679 Speaker 2: they come in threes, Malcolm, Jamal Warner, Ozzy Osbourne, I 190 00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 2: forgot about Malcolm Jamal Warner, Malcolm Jamal Warner, Ozzy Osbourne 191 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,679 Speaker 2: and Hulko. Is the three so sad on all three 192 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 2: of them because all three had and left a major 193 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 2: impact in three different ways. Absolutely no question about it. 194 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 2: By the way, yesterday I had three bottles three liters 195 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 2: of water. I'm going for four today, baby, And I'm 196 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 2: curious of this. When did water become electrolyte infused? Isn't 197 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 2: water just by principle like two hydrogen one oxygen? Who 198 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 2: puts in the electrolytes and does that changed the h 199 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,199 Speaker 2: two oz balance of it. Matt Taylor, the voice of 200 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:29,839 Speaker 2: the Coults, going to join us at one thirty today, 201 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 2: and I think, actually, I mean, you know, the guy 202 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 2: was educated around Collie, like he knows these kinds of things, 203 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 2: chemistry expert. 204 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 1: Yesterday we were in here. It was amazing to me. 205 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 2: I was We're the last two people in here before 206 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 2: the rooster woke up, and Matt was actually overplaying with 207 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 2: an abacus for the better part of yesterday. So we're 208 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 2: talking the intellect that I'm surrounded by. So I'm going 209 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 2: to ask Matt Taylor that question later. But the electrolytes 210 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 2: are important today because it's a little toasty it's a 211 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:56,880 Speaker 2: little warm. I'm not gonna lie to you, but that 212 00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 2: was the big story Richardson through an interception. Today, we 213 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 2: again continue to see and lou Aniromo makes no bones 214 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 2: about this. As a matter of fact, just when talking 215 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 2: about Justin Wally the young corner, I think he's going 216 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 2: to be a real talking point over the course of 217 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:16,080 Speaker 2: this camp. Two days do not a camp make. A 218 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 2: camp does not a preseason make, and a preseason does 219 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 2: not a season make. But from the time that he 220 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 2: was drafted, I think the overall instinct and athleticism of 221 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 2: Wally is something that they have continued to talk and 222 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 2: profess about and almost brag about, to be honest with you, 223 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 2: And it's one thing to talk about that, but it's 224 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:37,720 Speaker 2: another thing to talk about it and then put it 225 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 2: into motion. And when you consider Jalen Jones and Juju 226 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:44,319 Speaker 2: brent So I mentioned earlier, had an interception today, those 227 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 2: are two guys that have been on the field. In 228 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 2: the case of Juju Brentz, who I do like. I 229 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 2: like his athleticism, I like his length, I like his 230 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 2: closed gap ability. 231 00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 1: And I'll explain what I mean by that in a second. 232 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 2: But there's a lot I like about Juju, but health 233 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 2: has been the one question mark, and because he has 234 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 2: not been able to stay on the field from a 235 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 2: health standpoint, he's got to kind of work his way 236 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,560 Speaker 2: back in. So to have a guy that was playing, 237 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 2: you know, in the Big ten six months ago, nine 238 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 2: months ago, whatever it may be, and now you are 239 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 2: putting him in and you are immediately saying this guy's 240 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:22,319 Speaker 2: going with unit number one. That says something. And it's 241 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,440 Speaker 2: one thing to talk about the intrigue you have with 242 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 2: a young player. It's another one to go ahead and 243 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 2: put him on the pedestal and on display for everybody 244 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 2: of being out there. And that's what they've done with 245 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 2: him so far now in terms of windows. You've heard 246 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 2: me mention it before, But I always go back to 247 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 2: one of the first camps that I covered here extensively 248 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 2: would have been Peyton Manning's first camp, and I remember vividly, 249 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 2: I remember actually where we were when the quote happened. 250 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,679 Speaker 2: Tom Moore Bruce arians at that time as a quarterbacks 251 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 2: coach for the Colts, and Tom Wore Wild an offensive 252 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,559 Speaker 2: coach for the Colts, and they were, you know, both 253 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 2: of them, they were regular subjects for interview after those 254 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 2: practices because everyone wanted to know, not unlike now when 255 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:16,240 Speaker 2: everyone wants to know. I think there's a thought process 256 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 2: that there is a defer to Daniel Jones, And by 257 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 2: that I mean there is the thought process in the 258 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 2: case of Daniel Jones and Anthony Richardson, that Daniel Jones 259 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 2: is the starting quarterback that you'd defer to if Richardson 260 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 2: can't find stability or whatever else. But I think there 261 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 2: are a lot of people that think, Okay, they're going 262 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 2: to give Richardson they wanted to be Richardson, and then 263 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 2: if it doesn't work, Jones is your default. So I 264 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 2: guess by default is what I'm saying, even though Jones 265 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,840 Speaker 2: is starting out and started yesterday taking starting reps. But 266 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 2: I think Richardson is going to get like all these 267 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 2: opportunities right because of what has invested both financially and 268 00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:00,160 Speaker 2: also equity in him. 269 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 1: And so for that. 270 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 2: Reason, that is a huge topic of conversation, question everything 271 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 2: else from every coach that analyzes that position that we 272 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 2: will talk about regularly over the course of this camp. 273 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 2: And that was the case when Manning was a rookie 274 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 2: and even into his second and third year. The progress 275 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 2: of Peyton. Manning was a constant source of discussion and 276 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 2: analysis in his early time. Same with Andrew Luck, but 277 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 2: luck at the ground running. I mean, with Andrew Luck 278 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 2: it was like boom, let's go. Manning took a little 279 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 2: bit more conditioning, truth be told. And one of the 280 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 2: things that I remember the most was Tom Moore saying 281 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 2: after a practice that Manning came over and tom Moore said, 282 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 2: this is when I knew that Manning still had stuff 283 00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 2: to work on. Tom Moore was getting on him for 284 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 2: not throwing a pass. I think it might have been 285 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 2: to Jerome Pathon, and he said, well, you got to throw, 286 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 2: you gotta uncook that ball. And Manning said, no, no, no, 287 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 2: the window wasn't open. And tom Moore said, that's what 288 00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 2: you don't understand. In the NFL, that's the window. You're 289 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 2: not playing South Carolina anymore, You're not playing Florida anymore, 290 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:10,760 Speaker 2: You're not playing Vanderbilt anymore. The window here is that tight. 291 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 2: When it is that tight, if there is any opening, 292 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 2: you got a thread it right then. And your timing 293 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 2: has to be that you anticipate window before it opens. 294 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 2: And that's where Manning became so good. Is when any 295 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 2: receiver an Austin Colley, Brian Fletcher. Receivers that were good, 296 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 2: maybe not great receivers were made to look great because 297 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 2: they knew they would run a route and break the 298 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 2: second they turned around. 299 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 1: The ball was right there where it. 300 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 2: Needed to be when it needed to be there, because 301 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 2: Manning figured out how to make that throw not when 302 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 2: the window was open, but rather when the window was 303 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 2: going to be open, and anticipating the eighth of a 304 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 2: second that it was going to be open. And Anthony Richardson, 305 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 2: to me, still looks like a guy that that is 306 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 2: the thing. He has not yet figured out the window 307 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 2: for Anthony Richardson. When you grow up and you are 308 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 2: able to outfit physical in every aspect of what you 309 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 2: need to do by your arm strength, your run strength, 310 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 2: your break tackle strength, when those things naturally are happening 311 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 2: for you, then to all of a sudden go into 312 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 2: a situation for the first time. And when I say 313 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 2: the first time, I realize the guy's been in the 314 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 2: league for a while now, but he's been hurt. So 315 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 2: when Richardson is out there on the field right now, 316 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 2: he is going up against players that he does not 317 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:27,160 Speaker 2: out physical much anymore. Yes, he does from the quarterback position. 318 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 2: It's more unique than any other quarterback. But with all 319 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 2: of that said, the areas in which the areas in 320 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 2: which he is able to use his size and strength 321 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 2: are fewer and further between at the professional level than 322 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 2: the college level, and that window from a throw or 323 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 2: even a decision making standpoint is faster, and they still 324 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 2: elude him.

Okay, so let me set the scene here. 355 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 2: If you come out for practice at the Colts camp. 356 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:07,440 Speaker 2: It's great. I mean it's very cool, and it actually 357 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:09,439 Speaker 2: is really cool to have the access that we do 358 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 2: because I'm sitting right on the sidelines right off of 359 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:13,600 Speaker 2: the end zone. I can't complain about any of it. 360 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 2: It's amazing and the Colts have actually been very very 361 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:17,879 Speaker 2: helpful in helping us out with these interviews beforehand and 362 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 2: everything else, so not to complain at all. Obviously, we 363 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 2: booked these and came up with what shows we were 364 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 2: doing live before we had the official practice schedule. And 365 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:31,640 Speaker 2: the practice ends at eleven o'clock tomorrow, eleven fifteen, so by. 366 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 2: And it's also I don't know if you know this. 367 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:36,640 Speaker 2: Did you ever see that movie with Matt Damon where 368 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:37,399 Speaker 2: he lived on Mars? 369 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:42,119 Speaker 1: No? Okay, well I'm listening at Martian, so yes, the Martian. 370 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 1: Thank you. 371 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 2: Now I'm not there's in no way, shape or form 372 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 2: am I going to make a potato field out of 373 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 2: my own dung here? But it is warm, okay, and 374 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:50,919 Speaker 2: I'm the only one here, so I don't know if 375 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 2: I should be offended by this or not. But yesterday 376 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 2: Casey Value and Matt Taylor, both working for the Colts. 377 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 2: They are inside of the same tinted area, so we 378 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:00,119 Speaker 2: do have cover from the sun, which is good that 379 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,720 Speaker 2: we are on looking out onto the field. They both 380 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 2: just picked up a table and walked out of here. 381 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:06,879 Speaker 2: I don't know what I'm supposed to make of that, 382 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,639 Speaker 2: but there was a nice they were sitting before me. 383 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,680 Speaker 2: Casey Vallier was sitting next to me yesterday for the 384 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:14,399 Speaker 2: better part of the day, and you know, it was 385 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 2: just nice to have that, you know, the human camaraderie. 386 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 2: Both of them, they literally in tandem. They looked at 387 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 2: each other, they both grabbed the underside of the table, 388 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 2: picked it up, and walked out of here. So now 389 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 2: literally literally on the Martian, which I know is surprising to. 390 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 1: You, right, Eddie, not at all, not at all. 391 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 2: Okay, So then after Matt Taylor two o'clock hour, what's 392 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 2: lined up on the big program? 393 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 1: H Tom? 394 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 3: Do you know Golden Black. We talked to Zach Osterman 395 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 3: yesterday about what Kurt Signett he had to say a 396 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 3: big ten media day. Barry Odom meets with the media 397 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 3: out in Las Vegas this afternoon. So Tom Dean heard 398 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 3: to talk about that and plus all the different editions 399 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,440 Speaker 3: and how different Purdue will look this year football wise. 400 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, the I'm very curious about Purdue. 401 00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 2: I'm very curious about Perdue because I listen, we went 402 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 2: last year. 403 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:03,160 Speaker 1: Remember I went to the Predue Oregon game. 404 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,919 Speaker 2: I was gonna go watch Purdue, you know, shock the 405 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 2: world with Purdue and Oregon and did not go. 406 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 1: I did get to meet the Duck, which was awesome. 407 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 1: I met the Oregon duck. 408 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 2: The picture is actually six foot by six foot framed 409 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 2: inside of my place now. But that was the highlight 410 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:18,720 Speaker 2: of it. But I really like going to ross Aid 411 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:21,640 Speaker 2: and going to games. It just feels like a big environment. 412 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 2: It does night games of prdue does, but they've been 413 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:27,120 Speaker 2: terrible and I'm hoping that that takes care of itself. 414 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 1: Today. James Boyd just walked over real quick. 415 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 2: I'm gonna grab him before he takes up out of here, 416 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 2: and we're gonna get his thoughts and his observations on 417 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 2: what he saw from camp. Of course, you heard James 418 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,359 Speaker 2: this morning along with Kevin Bowen, as they will be 419 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 2: again tomorrow from seven until ten am. James, first off, 420 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 2: now help me out here. It is warmer now than 421 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:46,959 Speaker 2: when you guys were on this morning. Correct, yes it 422 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:51,639 Speaker 2: is warmer. But to me, the breeze helps. It does 423 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,360 Speaker 2: the breeze, certain, it does, it does. Opening this up 424 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 2: was a genius decision. Yeah, there's the tent behind us 425 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 2: has a there's a great view of Touchdown Town or 426 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 2: whatever it's called behind us, which again I'm the Martian, right, 427 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 2: I mean that's back there is where I'm actually if 428 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:07,639 Speaker 2: I do decide to do so where I'm gonna plant 429 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 2: my dunge potato field like Matt Damon did in the 430 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,399 Speaker 2: movie of oursh Okay, So give me the rundown. I 431 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:14,360 Speaker 2: mentioned in fact, Anthony Richardson threw kind of a lame 432 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 2: duck today and they continue to be impressed with Justin 433 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:18,639 Speaker 2: Walllye it woul appear. 434 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 1: But what else jumped out at you? 435 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:21,920 Speaker 4: I thought those were certainly the biggest takeaways. 436 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 5: Obviously, anytime you throw it to the other team in practice, 437 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:28,360 Speaker 5: that's gonna get noted. And I think Anthony still at 438 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:31,439 Speaker 5: times a bit inaccurate. I thought Daniel Jones had a 439 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 5: fairly okay day. It wasn't something that jumped out to me. 440 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:39,159 Speaker 5: No one really had like the big time play like 441 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:43,439 Speaker 5: yesterday's day when Daniel Jones hit Anthony Gould down the sideline. 442 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 5: There was no like big play from either of the 443 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 5: top two quarterbacks. A little bit of a Tyler Warren sighting. 444 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:49,640 Speaker 5: I thought, you know, he made a couple of catches today, 445 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:51,120 Speaker 5: and I thought that he was a little bit more involved. 446 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:54,159 Speaker 2: Which does he look more Tyler Warren like an in 447 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:58,439 Speaker 2: stride across the middle catching guy or can contort his 448 00:21:58,520 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 2: body and make the difficult catch. 449 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:01,399 Speaker 1: Cindy, good question. 450 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,160 Speaker 5: I think he's a great, you know, contested catch guy. 451 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,880 Speaker 5: I don't know if he's like the contorting his body type. However, 452 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:09,919 Speaker 5: it was good to just see him get open across 453 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 5: the middle and kind of get some balls because that 454 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 5: is an area of the field that the Colts have 455 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:15,399 Speaker 5: really lacked him when it comes to any type of 456 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 5: success in recent years. They've never had anybody over in 457 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 5: the middle that to catch the ball, and so just 458 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 5: seeing him get a little more involved than he was 459 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:24,359 Speaker 5: yesterday was a good sign. Cam Binen was very you 460 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 5: know it, spoke very highly of him and was saying, Hey, 461 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 5: the guy. 462 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:28,719 Speaker 4: If you didn't tell me, I wouldn't know that he's 463 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 4: a rookie. 464 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 5: So it's a good sign from how he's approached the game, 465 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 5: how he's kind of integrated into the offense. 466 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 4: So that s't out to me as well. 467 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 5: And then Jelanny woodside and keeping him with the tight 468 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 5: end theme, I thought, I for a second, I was 469 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:39,960 Speaker 5: a west second. He's back healthy and I get you know, 470 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 5: Jelanni Woods hyping July is always a little you know, 471 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:47,160 Speaker 5: scary because he had has he's had injury history. 472 00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:49,400 Speaker 4: However, just seeing him get out there, you wonder does 473 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:49,879 Speaker 4: that matter? 474 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:50,439 Speaker 6: All right? 475 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 2: We will continue to monitor all of those things. James, 476 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 2: you should get your laptop ready because I don't know this. 477 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,640 Speaker 2: I don't know this, okay, but I think I've done 478 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:01,439 Speaker 2: this a long time. Every once in a while, when 479 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 2: you do an interview, and I'm sure this happens with 480 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:05,679 Speaker 2: you, you do an interview and somebody says something where you're like, 481 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:09,399 Speaker 2: I think that's a news nugget. I think I just 482 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 2: got dropped the news nugget. And just before this show began, 483 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:15,440 Speaker 2: I did record an interview with Bernard Ryman, who is 484 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 2: entering his fourth year. And most importantly, by the way, 485 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 2: this bottled water that I bought, it's a brand I'm 486 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:20,359 Speaker 2: not familiar with. 487 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 1: It looks like a tequila bottle. 488 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:23,120 Speaker 4: I'll say, are you drinking on air? 489 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 6: Here? 490 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:23,480 Speaker 1: Is that? 491 00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:26,400 Speaker 2: It looks it looks like I'm drinking tequila? 492 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 1: And so would be is it national tequila? 493 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:32,679 Speaker 7: To hold on? Lord, you got a line for me? 494 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:37,879 Speaker 7: Oh my goodness, for the salt. All I do is 495 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 7: look my do that right? I don't even need natural. 496 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 1: I don't even need natural. This is bottled water. 497 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:44,960 Speaker 2: Everybody just say no, but it does look like could 498 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 2: send a tequila bottle on National Tequila Day. All right, 499 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:51,360 Speaker 2: Bernard Ryman interview Next he is in a contract year, 500 00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,720 Speaker 2: and typically with that a guy simply says, yeah, I 501 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 2: let other people worry about that. But Bernard Ryman went 502 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 2: one step further. The interview's next day number two is 503 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 2: now in the books. Colts Camp Grand Park up in Westfield, 504 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:09,159 Speaker 2: where we are Jake Querry here up in Hamilton County 505 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:11,640 Speaker 2: and joined by a guy that I think is a 506 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:15,000 Speaker 2: real key figure for this Colts team entering year number 507 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 2: four now Bernard Ryman, the left tackle of out of 508 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:19,920 Speaker 2: Central Michigan, where you know you were. 509 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:21,639 Speaker 1: I always forget about this. 510 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 2: You started out as a tight end, yes, sir, first 511 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,240 Speaker 2: transition in college, and I remember talking to you when 512 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:28,399 Speaker 2: you were a rookie just about still kind of learning 513 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:31,639 Speaker 2: that position. Did you feel like from an NFL standpoint, 514 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 2: there again was kind of that same learning curve because 515 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:38,919 Speaker 2: that left tackle position is so important at the NFL level, 516 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:41,359 Speaker 2: and there was so much expected on you from an 517 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,359 Speaker 2: early standpoint from the time he stepped on the field. 518 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:47,200 Speaker 8: Yeah, absolutely, I mean college it was quick turnaround. It 519 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 8: was you know, COVID year we had six games. Then 520 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 8: my senior season at twelve games, so eighteen games of 521 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 8: tackle and then you know, had to make an NFL team, 522 00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:00,200 Speaker 8: So that was definitely a big, big learning curve. But 523 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,440 Speaker 8: we have some great veterans in the room that really 524 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:07,200 Speaker 8: helped me out. You know, Q, Braden Ryan, all those 525 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:10,479 Speaker 8: guys were huge my rookie year and they've also you know, 526 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:13,000 Speaker 8: it stayed that way too, like every single year, can 527 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 8: I can keep learning from them, I can keep improving 528 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,960 Speaker 8: my game, and that's what it's all about, just you know, 529 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 8: keep on improving, working the little things and trying to 530 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 8: get better every day. 531 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:23,199 Speaker 2: You know, the guy that was the staple and the 532 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 2: pillar at that position obviously just before you was Anthony Gastanzo, 533 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:29,359 Speaker 2: and Castanzo to me was always fascinating because in getting 534 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:30,919 Speaker 2: to know him over the course of his career, the 535 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:34,119 Speaker 2: one thing I learned is that he never stopped learning. 536 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:37,679 Speaker 2: Like he took the left tackle position almost like a 537 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:41,399 Speaker 2: geometric science of studying all aspects and angles of it. 538 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:44,240 Speaker 1: Do you agree with that kind of mental approach of 539 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 1: the position? 540 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:45,160 Speaker 6: Oh? 541 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 8: Absolutely, I mean just even the smallest things, the smallest 542 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 8: angles the smallest step, the smallest you know, muscle you 543 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 8: use when you when you push off like that can 544 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,400 Speaker 8: all affect your game in so many ways and can 545 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 8: improve your game. So I think if you don't focus 546 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 8: on these little things, and if you don't study the game, 547 00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:06,920 Speaker 8: if you don't study your opponents, if you don't don't 548 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,239 Speaker 8: study these things, I think you you stop learning and 549 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:10,640 Speaker 8: then then you need to get better. 550 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 1: You get worse. 551 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:15,440 Speaker 8: There's no standing still, I think in this league. So yeah, 552 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 8: if you don't improve, you you won't make it here long. 553 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 2: You know, football in general, for fans, and I don't 554 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:26,200 Speaker 2: mean to say whether it's Anthony Richardson or Daniel Jones 555 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 2: or Riley Leonard or whoever, fans would like to see 556 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:31,440 Speaker 2: the consistency of just who's the starting quarterback. 557 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 1: And let's go with that from a line standpoint. 558 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:36,840 Speaker 2: As the guy that's protected and you are the blind 559 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 2: side protector, does the approach change or the style change 560 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 2: based on who it is that you are protecting? 561 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 6: To be honest, not really. 562 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:54,719 Speaker 8: I mean all those guys are obviously great players off 563 00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:56,479 Speaker 8: the field, but also on the field, I mean they 564 00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 8: all can they all have the arm to throw the ball. 565 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 8: You know deep, they all can make the reads, but 566 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:04,640 Speaker 8: they're also all athletics, so do. 567 00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 2: They have different tendencies though in terms of like one 568 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 2: guy and that's what I meant by that. More so, 569 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:10,719 Speaker 2: like you know, one guy, you know, Okay, he's going 570 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 2: to spend more time this side, pocket or that side, 571 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,640 Speaker 2: or oscillate this way that way. Can you get too 572 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,399 Speaker 2: caught up in what it is that their tendencies favor 573 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 2: a little. 574 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,200 Speaker 8: Bit, But I mean, at the end of the day, 575 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 8: the defense, you know, decides love that too. I mean, 576 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:29,359 Speaker 8: if a quarterback usually gets rid of the ball faster, 577 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 8: but the defense is taking away all his you know, 578 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:34,439 Speaker 8: all his the first two reads or whatever, then obviously 579 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 8: he's gonna hold onto the ball longer. So as an 580 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 8: alignment you can't rely on on you can't guess, but 581 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,399 Speaker 8: which is obviously also the difficult part about this position. 582 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 8: You you don't exactly know where the quarterback is at 583 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 8: all times. You don't know if he's holding onto the ball, 584 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 8: if he is rolling out of the pocket. So it's 585 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 8: it's it's good to learn the quarterbacks, the cadences, their 586 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 8: their style, the place to prefer. But at the end 587 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:04,240 Speaker 8: of the day, I think in game, it's it's kind 588 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 8: of you. You You're trying to do your job and 589 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 8: you're protecting whoever's back there. 590 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:11,119 Speaker 2: That is the voice of Bernard Ryman. We are at 591 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 2: Colts camp up at Grand Park in Westfield. Bernard entering 592 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:17,119 Speaker 2: year number four left tackle for the Colts. If it 593 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:21,640 Speaker 2: were up to you, is would you rather have stability 594 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,520 Speaker 2: and in terms of every single game, same starter at 595 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,160 Speaker 2: the quarterback position or the center position. 596 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:29,640 Speaker 1: I mean. 597 00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 8: Both would be great, but obviously in this league it's 598 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:36,440 Speaker 8: it's the day to day business where people get hurt 599 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 8: all the time. I mean, you see year year after year. 600 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 8: But I trust all of these guys I lost. I 601 00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:47,960 Speaker 8: trust entire quarterback room. I trust all of our centers 602 00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 8: to you know, step up and do what needs to 603 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 8: be done to win games. So I'm not too concerned 604 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 8: about it. I trust all of this guy, I thought. 605 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,600 Speaker 2: BUTTERLINI last year when put in the center position, and 606 00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 2: I like Danny Pinter and his kind of Swiss army. 607 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 1: Knife fast as well. 608 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 2: But Bartolini, I thought, when he was put in the 609 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 2: center position, did play really well and showed a lot 610 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 2: of promise of being it. He kind of reminds me 611 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 2: of you, to be honest with you, the guy that 612 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 2: he went into that position and you wondered what it 613 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 2: was going to be, but it looked like he was 614 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 2: acclimated from the get go. Now, for you, when you 615 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 2: observe him or help him out as a young player, 616 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,720 Speaker 2: can you see where there is growth or areas that 617 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 2: need to be improved. 618 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 8: I mean absolutely, I see growth from him every single day. 619 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:34,880 Speaker 8: I know, you know, Tayner and Danny are battling it out. 620 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 8: You know, Wesley Fringes in the mix to They're all 621 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 8: great players, and I think it's really kind of come 622 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 8: down to little things in the game that obviously the 623 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 8: higher ups the coach is going to get going to decide. 624 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 8: But for me personally, I see improvements from all of them, 625 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 8: and I see how much they've worked on it, to 626 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:56,280 Speaker 8: see how much team they want it, and that is 627 00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 8: just you know, it fuels the whole group because if 628 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 8: there's if there's some guys you know doing extra reps, 629 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 8: then it encourages everyone else to do the same thing. 630 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 8: So we just keep on pushing each other, you know, 631 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 8: even if it's between a tackle and the center, it 632 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 8: doesn't matter. We try to improve as a group and 633 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 8: I think they're all going to be really, really good 634 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:15,400 Speaker 8: for the season. 635 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 1: Do you remember your first start? Yeah, Do you remember. 636 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 2: The positive things that came from it or the place 637 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:22,800 Speaker 2: where you got beat? 638 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:30,320 Speaker 8: I mean, obviously I think as an athlete, as a 639 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 8: football player, but as an a lineman specifically, you always 640 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 8: remember the bad place. 641 00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:37,280 Speaker 1: Most then that has to kind of drive you a 642 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:38,880 Speaker 1: little bit, right, It absolutely does. 643 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:40,400 Speaker 6: I mean it's it's stings. 644 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 8: It hurts because you know, the good plays are expected 645 00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 8: and the bad plays are unacceptable. So I think that's 646 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 8: just you know, part of the position it. You know, 647 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 8: the first you know it happens, it keeps you up 648 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 8: at night, but you know you end up learning from it. 649 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 8: You get you you're getting better from it. Is your 650 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 8: position mental? Oh absolutely? 651 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 2: You know does that make sense, like, can you get 652 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 2: into kind of a streak or a slump mentally where 653 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 2: then you got to fight your way back from it? 654 00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 6: Oh? 655 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:09,720 Speaker 1: Absolutely. 656 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 8: I think You've seen in the league every year that 657 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 8: that people like get in their own heads, and players 658 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 8: that you know were are usually consistent, all of a 659 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 8: sudden drop off just because they're they're the mentalities and 660 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 8: right or day they started thinking about too much and 661 00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 8: I absolutely believe that it's a huge thing about disposition 662 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 8: specifically just because there's a lot of pressure. So but 663 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 8: I mean for us, we just rely on each other 664 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 8: and we do good jobs supporting each other. 665 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 2: If you're in a contract year Bernard Drive and you're 666 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 2: in here, you are, and you're number four, you have 667 00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:41,840 Speaker 2: earned the right for a big time deal. You know, 668 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 2: I see the numbers twenty twenty one projected per year, 669 00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:45,960 Speaker 2: et cetera. 670 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 1: Is this the first priority of where you want to be? 671 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 6: No, I mean, first priority for me is winning a 672 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:52,800 Speaker 6: Super Bowl this year. 673 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 1: That's But I mean in terms of the franchise you 674 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 1: want to be with, is it, Oh? Absolutely yes, yes. 675 00:31:57,600 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 8: I mean obviously we love it here. We would love to, 676 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:12,239 Speaker 8: you know, get things done. But I'm not I'm not 677 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 8: involved in this. Obviously you haven't. You have an agent 678 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 8: that takes care of this. From my understanding, there's they 679 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:22,960 Speaker 8: aren't on the same page about things. So you say 680 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 8: they're not on the same page as of right now, 681 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 8: they're not exactly the same page right now. So but 682 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 8: I mean, as I said, for me, as a football player, 683 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,280 Speaker 8: I'm I'm preparing for the season because that's what matters. 684 00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I understand when you talk to your agent about it, 685 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 2: when he says, hey, look, they're not on the same page. 686 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:38,760 Speaker 2: Do you think that that means just in terms of 687 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 2: the Colts don't want to have the discussion yet, or 688 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 2: the numbers themselves are way off base. 689 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 8: From my understanding is that the numbers don't always quite 690 00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:53,120 Speaker 8: add up yet, you know the way they they might 691 00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:57,680 Speaker 8: value a position differently than than than my team thinks 692 00:32:57,720 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 8: it is. 693 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 1: But I'm you know, we're working. 694 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:02,920 Speaker 6: We're working on. 695 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,280 Speaker 2: Your positions one of the most valuable here, you know that, right, 696 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 2: Like I'll be your agent for you here. Your position 697 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:10,239 Speaker 2: is really important, right So obviously I'm well aware of that. 698 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 2: You just want to make sure they're well aware of that. 699 00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 8: Right absolutely, And I mean I know that my agent 700 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:19,960 Speaker 8: knows that. Hoping the Colts know that too. But obviously 701 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:23,080 Speaker 8: for me, it's just it's about the here and now 702 00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 8: I'm improving. I'm working on this. We still have a 703 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 8: I have a guaranteed season with the Colts right now. 704 00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:31,840 Speaker 8: That's what I'm working on. That's been working towards that 705 00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 8: Super Bowl and everything else is you know. 706 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 6: Up to people outside of outside of. 707 00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:41,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, right here, Okay, I want to ask you this 708 00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:42,000 Speaker 1: every year. 709 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 2: I you know, when our jobs are similar in this aspect, 710 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 2: and that is that once the NFL season begins, if 711 00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 2: I want to take time off for a vacation, it's 712 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,840 Speaker 2: got to come really during the bye week, because you know, 713 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:54,400 Speaker 2: everything kind of centers around what you guys are doing, understandably. 714 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 2: So so this year, on the bye week, I thought, well, 715 00:33:57,440 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 2: you know, I like to go over to Europe. That's 716 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,200 Speaker 2: one of my things that I I enjoy doing. I 717 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:03,239 Speaker 2: really want to see Vienna, your home city of being 718 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:05,560 Speaker 2: in Austria. But the bye week, I think, is the 719 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:07,800 Speaker 2: first weekend in November. Now, what would the weather be 720 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:08,759 Speaker 2: like if I go over then? 721 00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:09,279 Speaker 1: Is that a. 722 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 8: Terrible time to go? I don't think it's ever a 723 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:16,400 Speaker 8: terrible time to visit Vienna. But it's gonna be similar 724 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:19,719 Speaker 8: to here, similar to like the Midwest temperature, So it 725 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:25,719 Speaker 8: might be cold and rainy there, but it's it's it's 726 00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:27,200 Speaker 8: still a beautiful time. I mean, you can still do 727 00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 8: a lot of sight seeing there. I'm not quite sure 728 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 8: if the Christmas markets will be open by then, but 729 00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:33,320 Speaker 8: that's definitely something. 730 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:34,880 Speaker 1: You got it. That's pretty cool, right? Yeah? What do 731 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:36,160 Speaker 1: you miss most about home. 732 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:40,279 Speaker 6: Family and friends, so that the people really do. 733 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:41,879 Speaker 1: You get a chance. How often do you go back 734 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:43,560 Speaker 1: or like in the off season you get to go back. 735 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 6: Usually we go into off season. 736 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:47,640 Speaker 8: But this year my wife and I we just had 737 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:50,480 Speaker 8: a baby, so obviously we didn't we didn't travel with 738 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 8: a little one. 739 00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:53,080 Speaker 1: But we'll be back, gratch. How old is the baby? 740 00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 6: Five months now? Thank you? 741 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 1: So are you getting any sleep? 742 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:55,959 Speaker 6: Yeah? 743 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean we moved into the hotel right now, 744 00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:01,799 Speaker 8: so that's obviously helping. But she's she's been great, she's 745 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:03,120 Speaker 8: been she's been a good sleeper. 746 00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:06,839 Speaker 2: Okay, So with that in terms of right now, just 747 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:10,400 Speaker 2: your overall mindset when you look at this roster, you 748 00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:12,200 Speaker 2: look at where you guys were from a year ago 749 00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:14,960 Speaker 2: and maybe areas you fell short. What is both the 750 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:18,080 Speaker 2: Bernard Rayman and the Indianapolis Colt? I guess mindset. And 751 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:19,480 Speaker 2: I know you're going to say, well, it's to go 752 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 2: to the super Bowl. 753 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 1: I get that. I'm out looking for the patent answer here, right. 754 00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:25,160 Speaker 2: The reality answer is when you guys resume and you 755 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:28,239 Speaker 2: sit down and you look over things, the area that 756 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:30,359 Speaker 2: you say to yourself, we've got to get this right, 757 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:32,279 Speaker 2: is what I. 758 00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:34,439 Speaker 6: Think it's just daily improvements. It's it's the little things. 759 00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:34,680 Speaker 6: You know. 760 00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:37,719 Speaker 8: Sometimes it's a lot of the times it's like a 761 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:41,240 Speaker 8: player too short, that's a score, a field goal that different, 762 00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 8: that can make a difference at the end of the game. 763 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:47,120 Speaker 8: It's it's always close, but you know we can't afford 764 00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:48,839 Speaker 8: that as a team. You know, close isn't good enough, 765 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:50,439 Speaker 8: So shame. 766 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:53,640 Speaker 2: Schichen had mentioned that that games oftentimes come down to 767 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,560 Speaker 2: like the last couple of drives and the frantic nature 768 00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:59,120 Speaker 2: of it. Now he told us, I don't know if 769 00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 2: he's told you this, that in practice what he wants 770 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:04,680 Speaker 2: to try to do in this camp is create havoc 771 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:06,839 Speaker 2: and create chaos for you guys to then get used 772 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:07,799 Speaker 2: to navigating through. 773 00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 1: Have you seen that approach from a practice standpoint? 774 00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:11,680 Speaker 6: Absolutely. 775 00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:15,120 Speaker 8: I mean there's been a lot of urgency, a lot 776 00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:19,240 Speaker 8: of you know, different situations thrown at us in meetings 777 00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:23,600 Speaker 8: in practice, and I think the coaches are really trying 778 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:26,760 Speaker 8: to push all of us, not just physical, but also, 779 00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,920 Speaker 8: like you mentioned, mentally with the different situations like you know, 780 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:31,320 Speaker 8: end up the game and stuff. 781 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 6: So I've definitely noticed that. 782 00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 2: Okay, lastly is because we did this last time. I 783 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:38,120 Speaker 2: talked to you so Arnold Schwarzenegger obviously is from Austria. 784 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 2: You probably get tired of doing this every single time 785 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:41,000 Speaker 2: you talked to be unli. 786 00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:41,799 Speaker 1: We had you do. 787 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:45,719 Speaker 2: Bernard Ryman, I'll be back, like in the Schwarzenegger voice. 788 00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:47,399 Speaker 2: But now what I need you to say is, I'm 789 00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:50,600 Speaker 2: Bernard Ryman and I want to be back. All right, 790 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:52,560 Speaker 2: all right now your agent probably you don't want to 791 00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:54,760 Speaker 2: hear that. But here we go from a leverage standpoint. 792 00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:56,439 Speaker 2: All right, here we go three two and one. 793 00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:59,319 Speaker 6: I'm Bernard Ryman and I want to be back. 794 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, all right, Bernard Ryman here four, appreciate it. 795 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:05,279 Speaker 2: Better for luck to you. Bernard Ryman. Here, Colts Camp 796 00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:07,360 Speaker 2: Practice number two. We will recap for you everything it 797 00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:10,239 Speaker 2: took place here at the camp itself and get you 798 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:12,640 Speaker 2: set up for this on what is going to be 799 00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:15,560 Speaker 2: a very very warm Thursday, no question about it's quarry 800 00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:15,960 Speaker 2: company here. 801 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:17,680 Speaker 1: You're listening to it ninety three five one to seventy 802 00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:18,200 Speaker 1: five to the fan. 803 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:23,040 Speaker 2: So you folks tell me if I'm wrong, but it 804 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:29,240 Speaker 2: seemed to me, and yes, I cannot imagine a scenario 805 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:34,080 Speaker 2: where the Colts don't do everything possible to retain Bernard Rayman. 806 00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 2: But when he said my understanding from my agent is 807 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:44,360 Speaker 2: that we are not close, I thought initially what he 808 00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:46,719 Speaker 2: meant by that was because I was thinking about Ryan 809 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 2: Kelly and a year ago when Chris Ballard had said, like, 810 00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:51,920 Speaker 2: you know, we let Ryan Kelly know that we will 811 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 2: wait until the end of the year before we assess things. 812 00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:57,880 Speaker 2: And obviously, in that situation and understandably, you know, the 813 00:37:57,920 --> 00:37:59,920 Speaker 2: Colts decided to move on and go with a younger cent. 814 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:00,719 Speaker 1: I get that. 815 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 2: But in the case of Bernard Ryman, you know, I 816 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:07,200 Speaker 2: think the best interest here for the Colts is to 817 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 2: lock him in now because I think realistically, and yes, certainly, 818 00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:15,879 Speaker 2: Bernard Ryman is a guy that could get hurt knock 819 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:18,719 Speaker 2: on wood. You don't wish that for anybody, opposition, or 820 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:22,040 Speaker 2: you know, whatever it may be. But having said that, 821 00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:25,960 Speaker 2: I think the longer that he goes and the more 822 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:27,960 Speaker 2: he plays into this year, and the more that he 823 00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:31,040 Speaker 2: continues to progress as he has and he has progressed, 824 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:32,520 Speaker 2: he is a good player. 825 00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:35,480 Speaker 1: And that is I'm telling you. 826 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:41,920 Speaker 2: The left tackle position is one that the value alone 827 00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:45,279 Speaker 2: of just having that be a box checked that you 828 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:48,800 Speaker 2: don't have to worry about the value in that alone 829 00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:54,160 Speaker 2: is a starting point that gives you financial flexibility or 830 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:58,279 Speaker 2: financial if you're the player that you go with that 831 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:00,839 Speaker 2: and say, look look at the number of teams around 832 00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 2: the NFL that are looking still for a left tackle. 833 00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:07,400 Speaker 2: It is this town and this franchise I think have 834 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:10,759 Speaker 2: been spoiled by the fact that you go essentially from 835 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:16,120 Speaker 2: Tarak Glenn right to Anthony Costanzo and then essentially you know, 836 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:19,720 Speaker 2: a bumpy transition and then into Bernard Ryman, and Ryman 837 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:22,880 Speaker 2: looks like he is going to be a long term 838 00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:27,000 Speaker 2: pillar guy. And if he is, the value alone in 839 00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 2: knowing that that is a position that you don't have 840 00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:33,400 Speaker 2: to further analyze or address ask other teams around the league. 841 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:36,480 Speaker 2: And the more that he plays this year, and the 842 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:39,080 Speaker 2: more that he plays at the level he's playing, you 843 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:43,759 Speaker 2: are increasing the odds that elsewhere some franchise is going 844 00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:47,600 Speaker 2: to run into a situation be it did injury, due 845 00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:51,120 Speaker 2: to retirement, any number of things where they then are 846 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:53,480 Speaker 2: in a situation where now they are back to the 847 00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:56,200 Speaker 2: drawing board on left tackle, and that is the one 848 00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:58,080 Speaker 2: of quarterback would be the hardest. 849 00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:00,720 Speaker 1: But I think if you ask a lot of people. 850 00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 2: They would tell you that left tackle is one of 851 00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:08,200 Speaker 2: the five hardest positions in the NFL to find long 852 00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:12,840 Speaker 2: term stability and replacement. And if Bernard Rayman is playing 853 00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 2: at a continued level that we have seen before going 854 00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:18,880 Speaker 2: into this season and through this season, and you start, 855 00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:22,480 Speaker 2: you allow him yet another opportunity to showcase himself, that 856 00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:27,360 Speaker 2: price tag ain't going down. The only way, the only 857 00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:31,040 Speaker 2: way that Bernard Ryman's value decreases between now and whenever 858 00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:33,560 Speaker 2: the Colts decide to side him is if he's injured. 859 00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:37,839 Speaker 2: And in that case, it doesn't help anybody that there's 860 00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:40,880 Speaker 2: no you know, I mean, then you're back to square one. Anyway, 861 00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:43,560 Speaker 2: I think you lock him in now because his value 862 00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:45,240 Speaker 2: is only going to increase. 863 00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:47,680 Speaker 1: It's only going to increase. 864 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:50,919 Speaker 2: And obviously if he has a career ending injury, then 865 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:52,600 Speaker 2: you know, that's one of those things that exists in 866 00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:55,799 Speaker 2: football that threat that risk. But by the way, my 867 00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,080 Speaker 2: computer here, Eddie, and I think this might mean it's incorrect. 868 00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:00,879 Speaker 2: My computer says it's fifty three degrees outside. Now that 869 00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:03,799 Speaker 2: that's not right, right, I think that's Celsius. I think 870 00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:06,640 Speaker 2: I think that's Celsius. Pretty sure it still thinks I'm 871 00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:09,040 Speaker 2: in Manchester, That's what it is. It still thinks I'm 872 00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:11,400 Speaker 2: in Manchester and that's celsius. It's not even humidity. That's 873 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:14,480 Speaker 2: not even humidity percentage. So Stephanie White. 874 00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:17,040 Speaker 3: If it was fifty five celsius outside, you would be 875 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:19,120 Speaker 3: in one hundred and thirty one degree fahrenheit. 876 00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:23,919 Speaker 2: That's about right then, right, I think that's right. That's 877 00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:26,239 Speaker 2: exactly what it is. The heatn' next heaten next. I 878 00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:27,680 Speaker 2: don't know if you know this or not. He did next 879 00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:31,720 Speaker 2: today one sixty one? Did you know that it feels 880 00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 2: like that? 881 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:33,160 Speaker 1: Now? 882 00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:35,839 Speaker 2: Temperature is just simply a measurement of what the air 883 00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 2: feels like. So I don't know how the temperature can 884 00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 2: then have it feels like? How can you have it 885 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:40,359 Speaker 2: feels like of what it feels like? 886 00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:44,319 Speaker 3: You need to ask where your meteorologist friends, you know what. 887 00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 2: Stephanie White went to brue and they have a great 888 00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:47,680 Speaker 2: meteorology meteorology school. 889 00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:49,000 Speaker 1: I'll ask her, do you think she'll know? 890 00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:52,120 Speaker 3: Maybe I'll ask her. 891 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:54,120 Speaker 1: Stephanie White, head coach of the Fever next. 892 00:41:56,840 --> 00:42:00,640 Speaker 2: Now, when we asked Fever head coach Stephanie White last week, 893 00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:03,319 Speaker 2: what artists you would like to hear again when we 894 00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:05,480 Speaker 2: bring her on, she said, Adele, but she actually thought 895 00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:07,400 Speaker 2: about her for two and a half minutes. So I 896 00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:09,759 Speaker 2: think that means that we're now out of options. So 897 00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:11,319 Speaker 2: do we just go back to what are we doing 898 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:12,799 Speaker 2: at any next week? Do we go back to Kitty 899 00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:13,399 Speaker 2: Chesney again? 900 00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:14,080 Speaker 1: Is that what we do? 901 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 3: I'm not sure? 902 00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:20,120 Speaker 2: Do we play the theme to Shawshank? We can't play Oasis? Right, 903 00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:23,920 Speaker 2: we know that we ruled that out. Okay, The Fever 904 00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:26,520 Speaker 2: in action tonight taking on Las Vegas. It is the 905 00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:30,520 Speaker 2: Stranger Things. Jersey return for the Fever tonight, joining us 906 00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:32,279 Speaker 2: now on the program. Head coach of the Fever, who 907 00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:35,520 Speaker 2: stand at twelve and twelve after dropping one to New 908 00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:39,200 Speaker 2: York in their last outing. Coach, I'm going to begin 909 00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:42,640 Speaker 2: with this before we get into basketball. I was just 910 00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:45,920 Speaker 2: saying I'd like to know and I'm going to trust 911 00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:48,280 Speaker 2: you now, when you were a student and basketball player 912 00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:49,719 Speaker 2: at Perdue, your major was what. 913 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:54,399 Speaker 9: Aviation for my first two years in college and then 914 00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:57,040 Speaker 9: communications my last two years. 915 00:42:57,120 --> 00:43:00,520 Speaker 1: Okay, so aviation is Perdue? Is I mean? It goes 916 00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:01,359 Speaker 1: without saying right? 917 00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:04,200 Speaker 2: I mean, you've got two of the most famous aviators 918 00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:07,360 Speaker 2: in world history, both from Purdue. When you were in aviation, 919 00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:10,160 Speaker 2: did you have to take any sort of like meteorology 920 00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:13,120 Speaker 2: classes or science of the atmosphere type classes. 921 00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:14,560 Speaker 6: Absolutely did. 922 00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:17,040 Speaker 9: Yes, we had to take meteorology. We had to take 923 00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:17,480 Speaker 9: all of that. 924 00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:19,640 Speaker 10: Had had to learn about engines too. 925 00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:21,760 Speaker 9: In fact, I had to take apart and put together 926 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:24,440 Speaker 9: a car engine so I could figure out how the 927 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:27,680 Speaker 9: engines worked with all the pistons and everything else. 928 00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:28,319 Speaker 10: And so it was. 929 00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:31,799 Speaker 9: It was quite comprehensive, not just you know, touching goes 930 00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:33,520 Speaker 9: when you're taking off and landing in airplanes. 931 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:36,480 Speaker 2: So do you know the reason I ask, do you 932 00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:39,560 Speaker 2: have any idea within any sort of ballpark of accuracy 933 00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:43,080 Speaker 2: how you translate celsius to fahrenheit temperatures? 934 00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 9: Absolutely not, because you know, we learned it in the 935 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:50,320 Speaker 9: We learned it in the American fahrenheit back in the old. 936 00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:51,480 Speaker 11: Days, of course. 937 00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:53,680 Speaker 2: And you know, I go over, like I went to 938 00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:56,279 Speaker 2: England for that concert, and they're like, now dress appropriately, 939 00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:58,399 Speaker 2: it's going to be thirty one fahrenheit. I'm like, wow, 940 00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:01,840 Speaker 2: it's freezing. Find out it's one hundred and ten. I 941 00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:04,400 Speaker 2: have no idea. So my point being right now outside 942 00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:07,239 Speaker 2: or you know, or they said thirty one celsius and 943 00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:08,480 Speaker 2: that's like, you know, I mean, I don't know what 944 00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:10,239 Speaker 2: that translates to, but it was hot, right, So I'm 945 00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:13,080 Speaker 2: assuming right now it's very high and celsius because it 946 00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:15,240 Speaker 2: is very warm. But let's get to engines and talking 947 00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:18,320 Speaker 2: about that. There is a big question mark in regards 948 00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:20,560 Speaker 2: to one of the most important pistons within the engine 949 00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:22,240 Speaker 2: of the fever, that of Caitlin Clark. 950 00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:24,959 Speaker 1: Where do we stand? What is the ladies? 951 00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:28,120 Speaker 2: You can tell us on what she has learned in 952 00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:31,200 Speaker 2: seeking medical opinion about the injury she's dealing with. 953 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:34,040 Speaker 10: I see what you did there too? That was that 954 00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:34,720 Speaker 10: was really good. 955 00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:39,040 Speaker 1: That's the second part. That's that communication. So I know that. 956 00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:41,720 Speaker 2: See I got into the communication aspect of the degree 957 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:42,680 Speaker 2: also there right. 958 00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:44,359 Speaker 12: You did? You did? 959 00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:46,399 Speaker 10: It's it was pretty good. 960 00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:52,480 Speaker 9: But no new no new information outside of what we 961 00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:54,479 Speaker 9: what we thought with when she went to see the doctor. 962 00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:55,920 Speaker 10: I mean, everything is pretty much. 963 00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:59,759 Speaker 9: On bar with just aggravation of that right groin, and 964 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:02,800 Speaker 9: you know right now there's there's no timetable for a return. 965 00:45:03,080 --> 00:45:05,120 Speaker 10: I think one of the things that's so important. 966 00:45:05,080 --> 00:45:08,680 Speaker 9: Is because there have been multiple soft tissue injuries, is 967 00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:11,680 Speaker 9: that we make sure number one that that she's she's 968 00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:14,920 Speaker 9: fully healed, comfortable, confident when she comes back. And number 969 00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:17,880 Speaker 9: two that that we we take our time. I know 970 00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:20,160 Speaker 9: she wants to play, I know we want her to play, 971 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:23,760 Speaker 9: but there have been multiple setbacks, you know, to this point. 972 00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:26,399 Speaker 9: So I want to just make sure that that that 973 00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:29,520 Speaker 9: we we give it it's it's due, and give it 974 00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:34,839 Speaker 9: it's it's it's time to heal as she continues to rehab, recovers, strength, train, 975 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:38,439 Speaker 9: and build endurance again for when that return to play. 976 00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:40,040 Speaker 10: Timetable comes about. 977 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:45,120 Speaker 2: When you were seeking more opinion, coach, were you, in 978 00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:47,239 Speaker 2: other words, when you heard back that there was kind 979 00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:51,000 Speaker 2: of nothing new to report? Was that a good thing 980 00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:52,759 Speaker 2: or a bad thing? In other words, is there a 981 00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:56,200 Speaker 2: frustration of not knowing exactly what it is? Or was 982 00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:58,080 Speaker 2: there a relief of knowing that it was not more 983 00:45:58,120 --> 00:45:59,720 Speaker 2: complex than you might have thought? 984 00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:00,719 Speaker 4: Yeah? 985 00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:04,520 Speaker 10: I mean, I think always when you're an athlete or just. 986 00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:06,520 Speaker 9: A human being, right, you want to have more than 987 00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:10,640 Speaker 9: than one or two opinions, particularly when your body. 988 00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:13,480 Speaker 10: Is your is your you know, vessel, it's your it's 989 00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:15,400 Speaker 10: what you do for your profession. 990 00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:17,480 Speaker 9: And so you know, making sure that that she making 991 00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:20,880 Speaker 9: sure that she got multiple opinions from you know, some 992 00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:22,719 Speaker 9: of the best in the business, and and I think 993 00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:25,320 Speaker 9: it's a relief to know that there's nothing worse that 994 00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:28,839 Speaker 9: what you had had anticipated, at least I'm speaking from 995 00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:32,000 Speaker 9: from you know, my perspective. I would never speak for Caitlin, 996 00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:34,840 Speaker 9: but I also think there's there with self fissue injuries, 997 00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:37,160 Speaker 9: there's always a little bit of frushration because it's never 998 00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:41,200 Speaker 9: one thing or another. You know, when you when you 999 00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:44,399 Speaker 9: sprain an ankle or when you have another injury, that's 1000 00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:48,120 Speaker 9: that's pretty cut and dry. You have a clear timetable, 1001 00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:50,719 Speaker 9: you understand uh what you're dealing with and how you 1002 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:53,719 Speaker 9: attack that process. And with self tissue injuries, they're so complex, 1003 00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:57,279 Speaker 9: they're so frustrating and and and challenging, and they really 1004 00:46:57,360 --> 00:46:59,480 Speaker 9: do just continue to nag until you have that time 1005 00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:00,000 Speaker 9: to shed it down. 1006 00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:03,560 Speaker 2: From your perspective, and again I'm not asking you to 1007 00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:06,640 Speaker 2: speak for Caitlin Clark, but from your perspective, Stepanie White, 1008 00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:10,760 Speaker 2: you know, as an athlete, how do you think she's doing, 1009 00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:15,239 Speaker 2: just in terms of the frustration, the timeline and everything 1010 00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:18,480 Speaker 2: that goes into dealing with something that she did not 1011 00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:20,279 Speaker 2: have to deal with a lot in college, and that 1012 00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:22,879 Speaker 2: is this navigating through missing time. 1013 00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:25,080 Speaker 10: Yeah, sure, it's frustration. 1014 00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:27,200 Speaker 9: You know, every competitor wants to be out there on 1015 00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:29,799 Speaker 9: the floor doing what they love, you know. 1016 00:47:29,920 --> 00:47:30,799 Speaker 10: Certainly, I know that. 1017 00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:33,040 Speaker 9: You know, and and and to be able to do it, 1018 00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:36,680 Speaker 9: you know, at a high level and feeling comfortable and 1019 00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:38,600 Speaker 9: confident in your body and. 1020 00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:41,520 Speaker 10: What you can do. So I'm sure that there's frustration, 1021 00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:41,960 Speaker 10: you know. 1022 00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:44,840 Speaker 9: I'm also sure that there's frustration dealing with multiple times, 1023 00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:47,839 Speaker 9: you know, and and adding to that having All Star 1024 00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:49,759 Speaker 9: in Indianapolis and not. 1025 00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:50,920 Speaker 10: Being able to participate. 1026 00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:53,800 Speaker 9: But you know, at the same time, being an athlete, 1027 00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:55,920 Speaker 9: you know, you understand that there are times where this 1028 00:47:55,960 --> 00:48:00,279 Speaker 9: is going to happen. Injuries happened, setbacks happen, you know. 1029 00:48:00,719 --> 00:48:04,280 Speaker 9: Fortunately for Caitlyn, she hasn't experienced a lot of injury 1030 00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:06,319 Speaker 9: and a lot of set back. Fortunately for her, she 1031 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:09,480 Speaker 9: also has a staff full of players who have experienced 1032 00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:12,040 Speaker 9: a lot of injuries, between myself and Breon January and 1033 00:48:12,120 --> 00:48:15,680 Speaker 9: Kareema Christmas Kelly, and so you know, we're our ability 1034 00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:17,719 Speaker 9: to help her navigate through the highs and lows of 1035 00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:23,000 Speaker 9: what it means to rehab, recover and the frustrations of 1036 00:48:23,320 --> 00:48:25,799 Speaker 9: you know, being in and out of the lineup and 1037 00:48:25,840 --> 00:48:27,640 Speaker 9: on the floor fever. 1038 00:48:27,760 --> 00:48:30,440 Speaker 2: Back in action tonight taking on Las Vegas. Stephanie White, 1039 00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:33,160 Speaker 2: their head coach, is our guest here on Quari and Company. 1040 00:48:33,520 --> 00:48:35,919 Speaker 2: You come off of after getting to the five hundred mark, 1041 00:48:36,320 --> 00:48:39,480 Speaker 2: dropping back to back to New York. In terms of 1042 00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:42,640 Speaker 2: that particular matchup, what things can you learn from that 1043 00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:44,879 Speaker 2: in terms of what the Liberty were able to do 1044 00:48:45,080 --> 00:48:47,680 Speaker 2: or areas where you fell short. That are areas that 1045 00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:51,400 Speaker 2: you look at and say, okay, learning example here that 1046 00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:53,600 Speaker 2: we need to take away from this is blank. 1047 00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:57,480 Speaker 9: That would be what I think first and foremost. You 1048 00:48:57,480 --> 00:49:01,520 Speaker 9: know there you can't the margin for aer small. You know, 1049 00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:05,600 Speaker 9: we had about a for for for thirty four thirty 1050 00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:09,160 Speaker 9: five minutes of that ball game. They we were really good, 1051 00:49:09,640 --> 00:49:11,839 Speaker 9: and against teams like New York, you know, you can't 1052 00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:14,040 Speaker 9: afford to have those those four to five minute stretches 1053 00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:17,120 Speaker 9: where you struggle because they're so dangerous. I mean, they've 1054 00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:20,040 Speaker 9: got like six Olympians on that team, you know, from 1055 00:49:20,120 --> 00:49:23,000 Speaker 9: various various countries around the world, and and their depth 1056 00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:24,280 Speaker 9: and their ability. 1057 00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:26,200 Speaker 10: To play inside and outside. 1058 00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:28,800 Speaker 9: You know, with John Quell Jones returning, especially, so you 1059 00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:30,320 Speaker 9: can't afford to have those lapses. 1060 00:49:30,400 --> 00:49:32,160 Speaker 10: You know, we the last two minutes. 1061 00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:34,399 Speaker 9: Two and a half minutes of the third quarter, they 1062 00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:35,920 Speaker 9: went on a nine to ozer run and they were 1063 00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:37,719 Speaker 9: able to carry that over into the first two and 1064 00:49:37,719 --> 00:49:39,880 Speaker 9: a half three minutes of the of the fourth quarter. 1065 00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:42,319 Speaker 9: And against those teams that that just puts you in 1066 00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:45,040 Speaker 9: a bond, put you in a hole. And and you know, 1067 00:49:45,120 --> 00:49:47,120 Speaker 9: that's again a growing. 1068 00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:47,799 Speaker 10: Area for our team. 1069 00:49:47,880 --> 00:49:50,040 Speaker 9: You know, they've got world champions and lectal champions on 1070 00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:53,200 Speaker 9: their teams, so they understand those those moments, and we've 1071 00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:55,319 Speaker 9: got to continue to grow through those and shorten those. 1072 00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:57,160 Speaker 9: We know, teams are good. New York is one of 1073 00:49:57,160 --> 00:49:59,600 Speaker 9: the best. Obviously there were there were w NBA Championship 1074 00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:03,000 Speaker 9: champion a year ago. But we've got to be able 1075 00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:06,960 Speaker 9: to find ways to navigate runs and to minimize runs. 1076 00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:09,200 Speaker 1: You know, you've got a good roster obviously. 1077 00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:11,120 Speaker 2: I mean it goes without saying, and I think Aery McDonald, 1078 00:50:11,200 --> 00:50:13,160 Speaker 2: as you've talked about, has been a really good pickup 1079 00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:15,560 Speaker 2: for you guys. That Leah Boston's played well, Kelsey Mitchell 1080 00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:16,360 Speaker 2: goes without saying. 1081 00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:21,399 Speaker 1: But Caitlin Clark is so important coaching. We know that. 1082 00:50:21,480 --> 00:50:24,719 Speaker 2: Okay, from a coaching standpoint, how do you kind of 1083 00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:29,279 Speaker 2: navigate through making sure that you have a group that 1084 00:50:29,400 --> 00:50:31,200 Speaker 2: is aware of the fact that they have a job 1085 00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:34,040 Speaker 2: to do even without one of those pistons, while at 1086 00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:37,640 Speaker 2: the same time knowing that when that piston comes back, 1087 00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:40,000 Speaker 2: you have to immediately and the time is running out 1088 00:50:40,040 --> 00:50:42,440 Speaker 2: on the acclamation period. So how do you keep the 1089 00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:45,680 Speaker 2: focus there within the group that is playing well. 1090 00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:47,239 Speaker 9: I mean, we talk about control and the things that 1091 00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:49,600 Speaker 9: we can control. And this is a group who won 1092 00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:52,640 Speaker 9: the Commissioner's Cup, you know, while Kaitlyn. 1093 00:50:52,400 --> 00:50:53,120 Speaker 10: Was not able to play. 1094 00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:55,080 Speaker 9: It's a group who found a little bit of groove, 1095 00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:59,560 Speaker 9: you know during that timeframe, understanding what it takes, you know, 1096 00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:03,120 Speaker 9: being able to continue to to play confident. You know, 1097 00:51:03,160 --> 00:51:04,640 Speaker 9: I thought there was a stretch there in that game 1098 00:51:04,680 --> 00:51:07,600 Speaker 9: against against New York where we passed up open shots, 1099 00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:10,160 Speaker 9: we second guests a little bit in ways that that 1100 00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:13,360 Speaker 9: we we shouldn't and and and couldn't, you know. So 1101 00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:15,920 Speaker 9: making sure we stay confident in one another, stay confident 1102 00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:19,040 Speaker 9: in our process, say, connected with one another, knowing knowing 1103 00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:21,640 Speaker 9: that we have pieces that it that it takes to 1104 00:51:21,640 --> 00:51:23,880 Speaker 9: to be able to be successful and put ourselves in 1105 00:51:23,920 --> 00:51:26,799 Speaker 9: position for success. And then when Caitlyn comes back, you know, 1106 00:51:26,840 --> 00:51:30,400 Speaker 9: it's the reacclamation period. The thing about about bringing Caitlyn 1107 00:51:30,600 --> 00:51:32,799 Speaker 9: Caitlin back and losing Caitlyn in the lineup is that 1108 00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:34,839 Speaker 9: she's got the ball in her hands a lot. Uh 1109 00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:36,840 Speaker 9: So the things that we run, the way that the 1110 00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:42,439 Speaker 9: ball moves, the attack from defenses is different, and and 1111 00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:45,719 Speaker 9: and our looks on the floor are different. Her gravity 1112 00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:48,880 Speaker 9: is so great that that it changes the dynamics of 1113 00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:50,840 Speaker 9: how teams play us and and what we what we 1114 00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:54,040 Speaker 9: tend to get. And so that is the single toughest 1115 00:51:54,040 --> 00:51:56,719 Speaker 9: thing with her in and out of the lineup. But 1116 00:51:56,960 --> 00:51:58,720 Speaker 9: you know, we have the pieces that have found success, 1117 00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:01,520 Speaker 9: and you know, just being able to stay confident throughout 1118 00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:04,120 Speaker 9: the ebbs and flows of a game is important. 1119 00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:07,400 Speaker 2: As a competitor. Stephanie White, our guest head coach of 1120 00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:11,319 Speaker 2: the Indiana Fever. As a competitor, Stephanie, when you look 1121 00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:13,120 Speaker 2: back at your career, whether it be as a player 1122 00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:16,000 Speaker 2: or a coach, I think one thing is that one 1123 00:52:16,040 --> 00:52:20,319 Speaker 2: thing that makes all elite level athletes you know the same, 1124 00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:24,920 Speaker 2: is just the competitive nature and focus. When you look 1125 00:52:24,960 --> 00:52:28,160 Speaker 2: at yourself. Would you say that you were more driven 1126 00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:34,120 Speaker 2: by chasing the feeling of the top of competition or 1127 00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:37,440 Speaker 2: by learning from and never letting go of your failure. 1128 00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:43,400 Speaker 9: I think probably the never letting go of the failure, 1129 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:48,080 Speaker 9: because if you ask most competitors, those are the ones 1130 00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:50,520 Speaker 9: that they remember. You know, you don't remember a lot 1131 00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:52,719 Speaker 9: of the wins. Heck, sometimes you don't even remember the 1132 00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:55,520 Speaker 9: championships unless they're the big ones. Like if you ask 1133 00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:59,200 Speaker 9: me about conference championships in college, I don't really remember, 1134 00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:02,480 Speaker 9: but the but the national championship is the one I do. 1135 00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:04,800 Speaker 9: But I remember the game where I had a double 1136 00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:06,600 Speaker 9: double and one of them was turnovers and I didn't 1137 00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:08,160 Speaker 9: make the game where I didn't make a field goal 1138 00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:11,520 Speaker 9: at Notre Dame my junior year, you know, or the 1139 00:53:11,560 --> 00:53:13,680 Speaker 9: game where I had eight turnovers my freshman year when 1140 00:53:13,680 --> 00:53:15,880 Speaker 9: we were playing in Vegas tournament. You know, you remember 1141 00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:19,160 Speaker 9: the negative stuff, You remember the failures, you remember the setbacks, 1142 00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:22,040 Speaker 9: and that drives you to be better, at least for me. 1143 00:53:22,520 --> 00:53:23,839 Speaker 10: Uh, you know, that's what it was. 1144 00:53:24,160 --> 00:53:26,800 Speaker 9: And when you chase, when you chase success and you 1145 00:53:26,880 --> 00:53:28,560 Speaker 9: chase titles and you chase all of that, I mean, 1146 00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:32,120 Speaker 9: that's that's ultimately, you know, it's it's the end game, it's. 1147 00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:32,640 Speaker 10: What you dream of. 1148 00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:36,279 Speaker 9: But ultimately, you're chasing the best version of yourself. You're 1149 00:53:36,320 --> 00:53:39,080 Speaker 9: chasing that elusive perfection that you're never going to get. 1150 00:53:39,080 --> 00:53:44,040 Speaker 9: You're chasing growth. You're chasing being better than you were 1151 00:53:44,280 --> 00:53:46,360 Speaker 9: the last game, or being better than you were. 1152 00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:47,160 Speaker 10: The previous year. 1153 00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:51,000 Speaker 9: You know. The result of that oftentimes ends up being 1154 00:53:51,280 --> 00:53:55,520 Speaker 9: championships or individual awards or whatever it may be. But 1155 00:53:55,600 --> 00:53:57,640 Speaker 9: it's the drive to be the best that you can 1156 00:53:57,719 --> 00:54:01,239 Speaker 9: be that you chase, and it's fueled the failures that 1157 00:54:01,280 --> 00:54:02,200 Speaker 9: you've had along the way. 1158 00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:05,600 Speaker 2: Have you had games where your team won but you 1159 00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:07,880 Speaker 2: felt like it was a failure because they didn't do 1160 00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:09,520 Speaker 2: something that needed to be worked on. 1161 00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:11,880 Speaker 10: Yeah, for sure. 1162 00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:14,080 Speaker 9: I think a prime example of that is our last 1163 00:54:14,160 --> 00:54:16,319 Speaker 9: Dallas game, and we were up big in the first half, 1164 00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:18,480 Speaker 9: and we came out in the second half and and 1165 00:54:18,960 --> 00:54:20,839 Speaker 9: just kind of played the game. You know, I felt 1166 00:54:20,880 --> 00:54:23,279 Speaker 9: like that was an opportunity for us to really learn 1167 00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:25,320 Speaker 9: what it meant to stay sharp, to not play the score. 1168 00:54:26,600 --> 00:54:28,360 Speaker 9: They may have even outscored us by a couple in 1169 00:54:28,400 --> 00:54:29,040 Speaker 9: the second half. 1170 00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:30,000 Speaker 2: You know. 1171 00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:31,680 Speaker 9: The last I think four or five minutes of the 1172 00:54:31,680 --> 00:54:33,879 Speaker 9: ball game wasn't as sharp and crisp as it needed 1173 00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:36,680 Speaker 9: to be, you know. And that's that's the growth process 1174 00:54:36,680 --> 00:54:37,239 Speaker 9: of a team that. 1175 00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:38,400 Speaker 10: Hasn't won championships. 1176 00:54:38,480 --> 00:54:41,440 Speaker 9: Right. It's like you have to approach the game, the 1177 00:54:41,480 --> 00:54:45,960 Speaker 9: possession the same way, no matter what in ways that 1178 00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:49,400 Speaker 9: you see the New York, the Minnesota, you know doing, 1179 00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:52,480 Speaker 9: the Vegas is doing. And I think that's again a 1180 00:54:52,520 --> 00:54:54,640 Speaker 9: growth process for our game. And you know, I always 1181 00:54:54,640 --> 00:54:56,600 Speaker 9: always say this, and I know it sounds cliche, but 1182 00:54:56,640 --> 00:54:59,799 Speaker 9: it's true. It's there's no substitute for experience. And when 1183 00:54:59,840 --> 00:55:04,759 Speaker 9: you I haven't experienced that at this level, you have 1184 00:55:04,840 --> 00:55:06,719 Speaker 9: to grow through it. You have to learn it. It's 1185 00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:09,600 Speaker 9: not something that's just in a in most players. 1186 00:55:10,680 --> 00:55:14,560 Speaker 2: You know, the Stephanie White is our coach of course, 1187 00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:16,200 Speaker 2: or our guests, I should say, the coach for the 1188 00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:18,480 Speaker 2: INDIANAF or our coach as well for the Indiana Fever. Tonight, 1189 00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:21,879 Speaker 2: back in action, taking on Las Vegas and getting back 1190 00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:23,880 Speaker 2: into things. So you would like to see what tonight 1191 00:55:23,920 --> 00:55:26,960 Speaker 2: obviously a win, but coming off of a now twelve 1192 00:55:26,960 --> 00:55:29,640 Speaker 2: and twelve, the big thing that you want to see 1193 00:55:29,640 --> 00:55:32,440 Speaker 2: that is going to show you that things are indeed 1194 00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:34,880 Speaker 2: coming off the right direction, coming off the two losses 1195 00:55:34,920 --> 00:55:35,440 Speaker 2: to New York. 1196 00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:37,560 Speaker 10: Would be what I want to see us with our 1197 00:55:37,600 --> 00:55:38,680 Speaker 10: defensive execution. 1198 00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:41,439 Speaker 9: I want our defensive execution to be lead, our point 1199 00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:43,840 Speaker 9: of attack, our disruption. I want them to feel us, 1200 00:55:44,640 --> 00:55:46,200 Speaker 9: you know, nothing easy. I want to make sure that 1201 00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:48,040 Speaker 9: we make them work for everything that they. 1202 00:55:47,920 --> 00:55:50,000 Speaker 10: Get, that they take the shots that we're willing to 1203 00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:50,319 Speaker 10: live with. 1204 00:55:50,360 --> 00:55:51,759 Speaker 9: And I want to see us take care of the ball, 1205 00:55:52,040 --> 00:55:56,279 Speaker 9: gives ourselves opportunities for high quality shots, and make sure 1206 00:55:56,320 --> 00:55:58,400 Speaker 9: that we're that we value every possession. 1207 00:56:00,239 --> 00:56:01,799 Speaker 1: White Head coach Indiana Fever. All right. 1208 00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:04,000 Speaker 2: Lastly, and most importantly, next time that we have a 1209 00:56:04,040 --> 00:56:07,080 Speaker 2: conversation with you. We've done Kenny Chesney, we've done Adell. 1210 00:56:07,160 --> 00:56:07,760 Speaker 2: What's next? 1211 00:56:08,280 --> 00:56:09,760 Speaker 10: I think we got to go Jimmy Buffett. 1212 00:56:11,200 --> 00:56:14,520 Speaker 1: All right, No way, we can't go. Here's the thing, though. 1213 00:56:15,280 --> 00:56:18,000 Speaker 2: We can't go Cheeseburger and Paradise or margart Reedville because 1214 00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:18,720 Speaker 2: that's too obvious. 1215 00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:21,640 Speaker 12: Right, you have it, Come Monday. 1216 00:56:21,719 --> 00:56:22,760 Speaker 10: Let's go come Monday. 1217 00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:25,319 Speaker 1: All right, fair enough, we can do that one. We 1218 00:56:25,360 --> 00:56:25,680 Speaker 1: can do. 1219 00:56:27,080 --> 00:56:29,040 Speaker 2: Jimmy Buffett is one of those you mentioned it we 1220 00:56:29,040 --> 00:56:31,120 Speaker 2: talked about earlier. I mean, it is a It was, 1221 00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:34,120 Speaker 2: I should say, a fabulous concert. And didn't everybody in 1222 00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:36,240 Speaker 2: college at some point go through a phase where somebody 1223 00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:38,600 Speaker 2: just had like the Jimmy Buffet's greatest hits, and everybody 1224 00:56:38,640 --> 00:56:40,080 Speaker 2: thought it was new and you didn't realize you were 1225 00:56:40,120 --> 00:56:41,759 Speaker 2: listening stuff from fifteen years ago. 1226 00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:44,960 Speaker 12: You know what I mean, no doubt, exactly, no question. 1227 00:56:45,680 --> 00:56:47,760 Speaker 2: Back in the days when you were taking apart engines 1228 00:56:47,760 --> 00:56:48,720 Speaker 2: and putting them back together. 1229 00:56:48,800 --> 00:56:49,319 Speaker 1: I like it. 1230 00:56:49,360 --> 00:56:51,959 Speaker 2: And now of course trying to get that engine fine 1231 00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:54,240 Speaker 2: tuned for the Indiana Fever tonight against Las Vegas. 1232 00:56:54,239 --> 00:56:54,960 Speaker 1: Coach appreciated. 1233 00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:58,120 Speaker 2: All right, all right, thanks shake all right, Stephanie White 1234 00:56:58,200 --> 00:57:00,239 Speaker 2: joining us on the program, and again to re cap 1235 00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:03,520 Speaker 2: the big news off the top. There no new information 1236 00:57:03,880 --> 00:57:06,279 Speaker 2: learn about the injury of Kaitlin Clark in terms of 1237 00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:11,400 Speaker 2: the other opinions medically speaking, and no necessarily new way 1238 00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:15,920 Speaker 2: in which going about things. In other words, that they 1239 00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:19,200 Speaker 2: know no more in terms of a time frame of 1240 00:57:19,240 --> 00:57:19,920 Speaker 2: her return. 1241 00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:21,120 Speaker 1: Eddie, we talked about it. 1242 00:57:21,160 --> 00:57:23,320 Speaker 2: You of course will be on the pregame and post 1243 00:57:23,320 --> 00:57:24,720 Speaker 2: game broadcast tonight. 1244 00:57:24,560 --> 00:57:26,880 Speaker 1: For the Indiana Fever. 1245 00:57:27,120 --> 00:57:30,240 Speaker 2: And one of the things I think becomes a challenge 1246 00:57:30,280 --> 00:57:33,640 Speaker 2: is just trying to figure out exactly when you then 1247 00:57:33,840 --> 00:57:35,640 Speaker 2: kind of say to yourself, this is who we're going 1248 00:57:35,680 --> 00:57:39,000 Speaker 2: to have to now just defer to who we are 1249 00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:42,160 Speaker 2: without Caitlin Clark, because you want her on the floor, obviously, 1250 00:57:42,480 --> 00:57:46,200 Speaker 2: but you've got to still use this particular group and 1251 00:57:46,320 --> 00:57:49,280 Speaker 2: find the ways that this group plays without her, But 1252 00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:52,440 Speaker 2: you don't necessarily want to completely focus moving forward on 1253 00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:56,240 Speaker 2: being a Caitlin Clark less team. I think that balance, 1254 00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:57,840 Speaker 2: Eddie is one of the things that's tough. 1255 00:57:58,000 --> 00:57:59,880 Speaker 3: I thought they took a step in the right direct 1256 00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:02,760 Speaker 3: in that game against the Liberty because even though they 1257 00:58:02,800 --> 00:58:06,080 Speaker 3: lose the game, they were in control of it for 1258 00:58:06,200 --> 00:58:08,160 Speaker 3: the first two and a half quarters and then things 1259 00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:10,840 Speaker 3: kind of shifted in the final you know, four minutes 1260 00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:12,360 Speaker 3: of the third and certainly at the start of the 1261 00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:15,400 Speaker 3: fourth quarter, and it felt like they had figured things 1262 00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:17,240 Speaker 3: out and then they just kind of hit a loll 1263 00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:19,480 Speaker 3: and that was the role where they could have used 1264 00:58:19,520 --> 00:58:21,960 Speaker 3: the Caitlyn Clark. And I believe this group because it's 1265 00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:25,040 Speaker 3: a lot of veteran type players. You've got Aliah Boston, 1266 00:58:25,120 --> 00:58:28,960 Speaker 3: Sophie Cunningham, Kelsey Mitchell, Natasha Howard, et cetera. Where they 1267 00:58:28,960 --> 00:58:31,919 Speaker 3: can learn from these mistakes and these shortcomings to better 1268 00:58:31,960 --> 00:58:34,200 Speaker 3: them in the future, just because that is how things 1269 00:58:34,200 --> 00:58:35,680 Speaker 3: are going to have to be the time right now, 1270 00:58:35,720 --> 00:58:37,680 Speaker 3: and you got to find a way to string together 1271 00:58:37,720 --> 00:58:40,960 Speaker 3: some wins to improve your playoff positioning. So when Caitlin 1272 00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:43,439 Speaker 3: Clark does come back, you can pick up right where 1273 00:58:43,440 --> 00:58:44,040 Speaker 3: you left off. 1274 00:58:44,960 --> 00:58:49,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, the look very very important piece, no question about that. 1275 00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:52,440 Speaker 2: And again I go back to the one thing, and 1276 00:58:52,480 --> 00:58:54,960 Speaker 2: there is a bit of a timeline that goes on 1277 00:58:55,000 --> 00:58:55,160 Speaker 2: with this. 1278 00:58:55,320 --> 00:58:57,400 Speaker 1: The one thing that I kind of hope. 1279 00:58:57,600 --> 00:59:00,440 Speaker 2: In all of this is that if you are the fever, 1280 00:59:00,520 --> 00:59:01,919 Speaker 2: you look at it and you say, if we're getting 1281 00:59:01,960 --> 00:59:05,680 Speaker 2: everybody else involved and we're playing without Caitlin Clark, then 1282 00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:10,040 Speaker 2: when she comes back, you can still continue with that 1283 00:59:10,200 --> 00:59:14,560 Speaker 2: same modus operandi as long as she is coming in 1284 00:59:14,640 --> 00:59:18,680 Speaker 2: as facilitator. First, isn't that a word modus operandi? Did 1285 00:59:18,680 --> 00:59:19,520 Speaker 2: I say that incorrectly? 1286 00:59:19,560 --> 00:59:19,840 Speaker 3: I don't know. 1287 00:59:19,880 --> 00:59:23,320 Speaker 1: I just haven't heard that before, Eddie. 1288 00:59:23,360 --> 00:59:26,320 Speaker 2: I was an English major in college, which means when 1289 00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:28,240 Speaker 2: you're an English major, one of two things can. 1290 00:59:30,400 --> 00:59:31,640 Speaker 1: Very well said. 1291 00:59:32,880 --> 00:59:34,880 Speaker 2: Actually a good point, because I was an English major, 1292 00:59:34,920 --> 00:59:38,000 Speaker 2: and then towards the end there I had to switch 1293 00:59:38,160 --> 00:59:40,920 Speaker 2: because to have an English degree you had to have 1294 00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:45,160 Speaker 2: eight semesters of foreign language, and I had four semesters 1295 00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:48,400 Speaker 2: of Spanish, and then I had three semesters of Swahili 1296 00:59:48,680 --> 00:59:51,000 Speaker 2: and it was no longer offered so I could So 1297 00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:52,680 Speaker 2: I would have had to go back and redo and 1298 00:59:52,720 --> 00:59:54,800 Speaker 2: start all over again with the second foreign language. And 1299 00:59:54,840 --> 00:59:56,800 Speaker 2: you can guess what the odds of that were. So 1300 00:59:56,840 --> 00:59:58,920 Speaker 2: I had to switch the major in order to complete 1301 00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:01,200 Speaker 2: my degree and graduate. But that's why, kids, you don't 1302 01:00:01,200 --> 01:00:03,320 Speaker 2: take a thirty one year delay in the process. But 1303 01:00:03,520 --> 01:00:05,880 Speaker 2: as an English major, one thing I've learned you can 1304 01:00:05,960 --> 01:00:07,400 Speaker 2: use words every once in a while that people are 1305 01:00:07,480 --> 01:00:09,960 Speaker 2: unfamiliar with, and if you make up words or say 1306 01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:11,840 Speaker 2: them in correctly, you get benefit of that out because 1307 01:00:11,840 --> 01:00:12,200 Speaker 2: you're an. 1308 01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:17,840 Speaker 1: English major, right I guess. So yeah, So having said that, you. 1309 01:00:19,320 --> 01:00:21,760 Speaker 2: It feels to me like if you just go on 1310 01:00:21,880 --> 01:00:24,320 Speaker 2: and say we're going to play under the assumption that 1311 01:00:24,360 --> 01:00:26,120 Speaker 2: we're not going to have Caitlin Clark for a while, 1312 01:00:26,520 --> 01:00:29,720 Speaker 2: and then when she does return, you have her return 1313 01:00:29,840 --> 01:00:34,120 Speaker 2: as the point guard facilitator to simply continue running the 1314 01:00:34,200 --> 01:00:38,640 Speaker 2: engine as it's been running, and then you start to 1315 01:00:38,880 --> 01:00:41,800 Speaker 2: allow her to get her shots and get her offensively 1316 01:00:41,800 --> 01:00:44,600 Speaker 2: her scoring aspect of it. If you just air drop 1317 01:00:44,680 --> 01:00:48,160 Speaker 2: her back in as a scorer when you have a 1318 01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:50,720 Speaker 2: group that has been scoring without her, then I think 1319 01:00:50,760 --> 01:00:53,840 Speaker 2: that's where it becomes more complicated, if that makes sense 1320 01:00:53,880 --> 01:00:56,560 Speaker 2: what I'm saying. I again, we are at Colts Camp 1321 01:00:56,560 --> 01:00:58,800 Speaker 2: Grand Park up in Westfield. It is I will admit 1322 01:00:58,840 --> 01:01:00,880 Speaker 2: it's not. It doesn't feel as bad because there's a 1323 01:01:00,920 --> 01:01:04,000 Speaker 2: breeze now, but it is definitely warm outside. And I 1324 01:01:04,040 --> 01:01:06,800 Speaker 2: want to remind everybody. Uh, and let you know, if 1325 01:01:06,840 --> 01:01:08,680 Speaker 2: you're watching on the YouTube and we thank you for 1326 01:01:08,720 --> 01:01:09,520 Speaker 2: doing so, are. 1327 01:01:09,360 --> 01:01:12,320 Speaker 3: You gonna smile at the camera and uh, hey. 1328 01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:14,240 Speaker 1: God, here you go? You ready position yourself? This is 1329 01:01:14,440 --> 01:01:16,400 Speaker 1: it's radio, so not very many people can see this. 1330 01:01:16,440 --> 01:01:18,360 Speaker 2: But if you're watching later on, and we hope that 1331 01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:21,120 Speaker 2: you do watching on the YouTube, you ready. 1332 01:01:21,160 --> 01:01:23,320 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, there you go. 1333 01:01:23,520 --> 01:01:25,760 Speaker 2: Uh, this looks like I'm getting ready to down a 1334 01:01:25,760 --> 01:01:26,600 Speaker 2: bottle of tequila. 1335 01:01:26,640 --> 01:01:28,400 Speaker 1: It totally looks that way. And you said today's National 1336 01:01:28,400 --> 01:01:29,000 Speaker 1: Tequila Day. 1337 01:01:29,080 --> 01:01:30,880 Speaker 3: It is indeed it is. 1338 01:01:30,960 --> 01:01:35,800 Speaker 2: Indeed, this is just good old artesian water. That means 1339 01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:38,960 Speaker 2: it's out of a well somewhere. I don't know where 1340 01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:42,520 Speaker 2: I've always thought that it would would it be illegal 1341 01:01:42,560 --> 01:01:44,520 Speaker 2: to do this? Could you just start bottling water out 1342 01:01:44,560 --> 01:01:47,240 Speaker 2: of your faucet and come up with a company and 1343 01:01:47,280 --> 01:01:48,960 Speaker 2: sell it? Oh? 1344 01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:51,520 Speaker 1: My, would abody? 1345 01:01:52,240 --> 01:01:54,000 Speaker 3: You would have put the ingredients on it, wouldn't you? 1346 01:01:54,800 --> 01:01:57,520 Speaker 1: H two O two hydrogen? Whate oxygen? What ingredients? And 1347 01:01:57,560 --> 01:01:58,680 Speaker 1: what else is there to tapwater? 1348 01:01:58,720 --> 01:01:58,840 Speaker 8: Well? 1349 01:01:58,880 --> 01:01:59,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. 1350 01:01:59,520 --> 01:02:01,800 Speaker 3: Water's all the I don't know if the FDA would 1351 01:02:01,800 --> 01:02:02,320 Speaker 3: approve of that? 1352 01:02:03,040 --> 01:02:03,360 Speaker 1: Why not? 1353 01:02:03,760 --> 01:02:05,720 Speaker 2: I mean the FDA allows you to drink it at home, right, 1354 01:02:05,800 --> 01:02:07,480 Speaker 2: I don't think it that's fluoride in anymore? 1355 01:02:07,520 --> 01:02:07,760 Speaker 1: Does it? 1356 01:02:07,800 --> 01:02:11,080 Speaker 2: Didn't we take that out? H two? That's all you 1357 01:02:11,120 --> 01:02:14,800 Speaker 2: need literally, just just you just put it right there 1358 01:02:14,800 --> 01:02:18,160 Speaker 2: in the tap. Tell people it's from the flowing springs 1359 01:02:18,200 --> 01:02:21,120 Speaker 2: of Meridian. Kessler, who knows the difference? 1360 01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:21,360 Speaker 1: Right? 1361 01:02:21,400 --> 01:02:22,760 Speaker 3: We got going on in the background there I sounds 1362 01:02:22,760 --> 01:02:24,640 Speaker 3: that we've got some hammering and nails going on. 1363 01:02:25,240 --> 01:02:27,640 Speaker 1: There is I am in it? 1364 01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:31,560 Speaker 2: Okay to set the scene here at Grand Park and Westfield, 1365 01:02:31,960 --> 01:02:34,360 Speaker 2: if you have been for Colts Camp, you obviously have 1366 01:02:34,440 --> 01:02:39,520 Speaker 2: the main practice field. The north end of that practice 1367 01:02:39,560 --> 01:02:41,880 Speaker 2: field in the end zone. Just behind the end zone 1368 01:02:41,960 --> 01:02:45,320 Speaker 2: is a row there are I believe, four rather large tents. 1369 01:02:46,000 --> 01:02:49,000 Speaker 2: Those tents have the front side of it opens up 1370 01:02:49,040 --> 01:02:51,880 Speaker 2: towards the field. The backside of it, if you so choose, 1371 01:02:52,360 --> 01:02:54,480 Speaker 2: you can close that and then the people that are 1372 01:02:54,480 --> 01:02:57,400 Speaker 2: behind on Touchdowntown can't see across into the practice field. 1373 01:02:57,800 --> 01:03:01,200 Speaker 2: We have both areas open for the obvious reason because, 1374 01:03:01,280 --> 01:03:03,560 Speaker 2: like I mentioned earlier, I am Matt Damon and the Martian. 1375 01:03:03,560 --> 01:03:07,920 Speaker 1: It's one hundred and sixty two degrees here, and just beside. 1376 01:03:07,480 --> 01:03:11,040 Speaker 2: Me there is one other tent, and the vinyl paneling 1377 01:03:11,080 --> 01:03:13,600 Speaker 2: of that tent in the wind is slapping against the 1378 01:03:13,640 --> 01:03:14,320 Speaker 2: tent that I'm in. 1379 01:03:14,640 --> 01:03:16,120 Speaker 1: Okay, that's Casey Valier. 1380 01:03:16,200 --> 01:03:17,919 Speaker 3: Matt Taylor returned and they were just trying to put 1381 01:03:17,920 --> 01:03:20,600 Speaker 3: that table together that they picked up and carried out. 1382 01:03:21,080 --> 01:03:24,880 Speaker 2: Casey Valuer and Matt Taylor indeed about an hour ago, 1383 01:03:24,960 --> 01:03:27,600 Speaker 2: picked up their table and simply left. Now, Casey Valier, 1384 01:03:28,120 --> 01:03:30,200 Speaker 2: I'm watching right now, he is leaving all together. He 1385 01:03:30,280 --> 01:03:32,560 Speaker 2: is packed up, he's got all this stuff. There are 1386 01:03:32,560 --> 01:03:35,360 Speaker 2: two areas of motion right now at Grand Park. One 1387 01:03:35,400 --> 01:03:38,400 Speaker 2: is Casey Valier leaving the practice facility. The other is 1388 01:03:38,440 --> 01:03:40,560 Speaker 2: the truck that is coming and changing out the Portalts. 1389 01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:42,640 Speaker 2: It's got two up on the back. I'm hoping that 1390 01:03:42,640 --> 01:03:46,040 Speaker 2: there are no potholes that would be ugly. And Matt 1391 01:03:46,040 --> 01:03:47,920 Speaker 2: Taylor is here, and Matt Taylor is actually going to 1392 01:03:48,000 --> 01:03:49,560 Speaker 2: join us. Coming up just about five minutes from now, 1393 01:03:49,560 --> 01:03:51,320 Speaker 2: we will get you caught up on everything that's been 1394 01:03:51,360 --> 01:03:53,520 Speaker 2: going on at Colt's camp. We'll get Matt Taylor's reaction 1395 01:03:53,720 --> 01:03:57,240 Speaker 2: and thoughts on this day number two of practice. There 1396 01:03:57,360 --> 01:04:00,280 Speaker 2: was one player that continues to kind of shine. There 1397 01:04:00,360 --> 01:04:03,040 Speaker 2: was one player that shows a little bit of inconsistency 1398 01:04:03,080 --> 01:04:06,320 Speaker 2: and had a hiccup today. There is one player that 1399 01:04:06,520 --> 01:04:09,120 Speaker 2: earlier told us that even though he is in a 1400 01:04:09,160 --> 01:04:13,120 Speaker 2: contract year, things are getting interesting because his agent tells 1401 01:04:13,200 --> 01:04:17,400 Speaker 2: him that he and the Colts are not on the 1402 01:04:17,480 --> 01:04:21,040 Speaker 2: same page quote end quote, and that from a numbers standpoint, 1403 01:04:21,360 --> 01:04:23,960 Speaker 2: they are not close. I'm talking about Bernard Ryman, who 1404 01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:26,400 Speaker 2: made that comment to us just before the show began today. 1405 01:04:26,760 --> 01:04:29,640 Speaker 2: We aired that interview come at about twelve thirty that 1406 01:04:29,800 --> 01:04:32,120 Speaker 2: is available in podcast format one oh seventy five to 1407 01:04:32,280 --> 01:04:34,920 Speaker 2: fan dot com. But Bernard Ryman, when I asked him 1408 01:04:34,960 --> 01:04:38,240 Speaker 2: about the contract status and being in a contract year, 1409 01:04:38,280 --> 01:04:40,640 Speaker 2: and he said, I let someone else deal with that, 1410 01:04:40,760 --> 01:04:44,000 Speaker 2: but it is my understanding is, and I'm paraphrasing, that 1411 01:04:44,040 --> 01:04:47,919 Speaker 2: we are not close. And I said, I'm sorry. He said, 1412 01:04:47,960 --> 01:04:49,880 Speaker 2: we are not on the same page. That's what it was. 1413 01:04:49,920 --> 01:04:52,720 Speaker 2: We are not on the same page. I then immediately 1414 01:04:52,720 --> 01:04:55,120 Speaker 2: defer back in my mind to the situation with Ryan 1415 01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:57,840 Speaker 2: Kelly a year ago where Chris Ballard made it very 1416 01:04:57,920 --> 01:04:59,640 Speaker 2: clear during camp that they did not want to have 1417 01:04:59,680 --> 01:05:01,800 Speaker 2: that new go pociation at that time, but would rather 1418 01:05:01,880 --> 01:05:04,800 Speaker 2: table that discussion. Obviously, you saw that Ryan Kelly. They 1419 01:05:04,840 --> 01:05:07,280 Speaker 2: decided to go in another direction at the center position. 1420 01:05:07,840 --> 01:05:11,080 Speaker 2: I cannot foresee any way, shape or form that the 1421 01:05:11,120 --> 01:05:13,520 Speaker 2: Colts are looking to go on to any other situation 1422 01:05:13,680 --> 01:05:17,280 Speaker 2: at left tackle other than Bernard Ryman. So I asked him, 1423 01:05:17,440 --> 01:05:20,040 Speaker 2: do you mean that when you say you're not on 1424 01:05:20,080 --> 01:05:22,080 Speaker 2: the same page, that they're not willing to have that 1425 01:05:22,160 --> 01:05:25,160 Speaker 2: conversation right now? Or do you mean the numbers are 1426 01:05:25,160 --> 01:05:28,000 Speaker 2: not the same And he said, I mean the numbers 1427 01:05:28,080 --> 01:05:31,480 Speaker 2: are not close. So that's where things stand with Bernard Ryman. 1428 01:05:31,720 --> 01:05:33,560 Speaker 2: Matt Taylor is the voice of the Colts. I think 1429 01:05:33,600 --> 01:05:36,800 Speaker 2: he's still here a corralum and we'll talk to him next. 1430 01:05:40,280 --> 01:05:44,000 Speaker 2: It is in fact, Tequila Day, National Tequila Day, apparently 1431 01:05:44,600 --> 01:05:48,320 Speaker 2: big news of the day. And I'm not drinking tequila. 1432 01:05:48,360 --> 01:05:50,520 Speaker 2: It's bottled water that looks like it's in a tequila bottle. 1433 01:05:50,640 --> 01:05:52,120 Speaker 2: But I can even show you it says artists and 1434 01:05:52,160 --> 01:05:54,160 Speaker 2: water right there. I didn't like put it, you know, 1435 01:05:54,360 --> 01:05:58,920 Speaker 2: Quervo in there, just but nonetheless important to stay hydrated 1436 01:05:58,960 --> 01:06:00,520 Speaker 2: on a hot day like today. Some of the big 1437 01:06:00,520 --> 01:06:03,320 Speaker 2: news items from the day. If you are just joining 1438 01:06:03,360 --> 01:06:07,200 Speaker 2: the show, thank you, Eddie. Stephanie White mentioned earlier that 1439 01:06:07,280 --> 01:06:10,920 Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark there is no new update after getting various 1440 01:06:10,960 --> 01:06:14,720 Speaker 2: opinions on her injury, no update on her status. In 1441 01:06:14,720 --> 01:06:18,800 Speaker 2: addition to that, other news that is of note, Hulk 1442 01:06:18,840 --> 01:06:21,760 Speaker 2: Hogan passing away today, that news coming out, and that's 1443 01:06:21,840 --> 01:06:25,440 Speaker 2: obviously a big one within the American pop culture landscape, 1444 01:06:25,520 --> 01:06:29,080 Speaker 2: certainly of the eighties. I think his star really launched 1445 01:06:29,080 --> 01:06:32,520 Speaker 2: when he was Thunderlips in Rocky three in nineteen eighty two, 1446 01:06:32,600 --> 01:06:34,320 Speaker 2: and then, of course it goes without saying, when he 1447 01:06:34,360 --> 01:06:37,600 Speaker 2: beat the Iron Chic in professional wrestling, got the belt, 1448 01:06:37,640 --> 01:06:40,880 Speaker 2: and it became not just a wrestling star but a 1449 01:06:40,880 --> 01:06:44,200 Speaker 2: pop cultural icon in reality, television, politics, all of it 1450 01:06:44,880 --> 01:06:47,959 Speaker 2: Hulk Hogan passing away. We are at Colts Camp Grand 1451 01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:50,280 Speaker 2: Park in Westfield. Practice number two is in the books. 1452 01:06:50,280 --> 01:06:53,520 Speaker 2: Matt Taylor is the radio voice that the Indianapolis Colts. 1453 01:06:53,600 --> 01:06:56,320 Speaker 2: Joins us here and Matt will begin simply with this, 1454 01:06:56,360 --> 01:06:58,600 Speaker 2: and that is we talked yesterday and practice number one 1455 01:06:58,600 --> 01:07:01,680 Speaker 2: of some of the things that we saw, things that 1456 01:07:01,800 --> 01:07:04,280 Speaker 2: jumped out at you today and practice number two. 1457 01:07:05,400 --> 01:07:07,640 Speaker 13: Yeah, I think I think it's pretty clear that the 1458 01:07:07,720 --> 01:07:11,000 Speaker 13: defense is probably ahead of the offense. They certainly took 1459 01:07:11,000 --> 01:07:14,000 Speaker 13: advantage of the offense at times today, and that's to 1460 01:07:14,000 --> 01:07:15,560 Speaker 13: be expected because. 1461 01:07:15,600 --> 01:07:16,960 Speaker 11: You know, you're putting in a new scheme. 1462 01:07:17,080 --> 01:07:20,160 Speaker 13: Yes, but there's also a lot of continuity on that 1463 01:07:20,200 --> 01:07:22,800 Speaker 13: side of the ball. The offense is changing out the quarterbacks. 1464 01:07:22,840 --> 01:07:25,640 Speaker 13: You know, there's this switch up between Anthony Richardson and 1465 01:07:25,720 --> 01:07:28,680 Speaker 13: Daniel Jones. But it's pretty clear to me early on 1466 01:07:28,760 --> 01:07:33,960 Speaker 13: through two days that you can already start to see 1467 01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:37,240 Speaker 13: the defensive schematic change on that side of the ball. 1468 01:07:37,960 --> 01:07:41,400 Speaker 13: The secondary is sticky, a lot of press man to 1469 01:07:41,520 --> 01:07:43,560 Speaker 13: man and just to put it. 1470 01:07:43,520 --> 01:07:46,160 Speaker 11: Simply, Sharparius Ward is going to be really good. 1471 01:07:46,440 --> 01:07:49,080 Speaker 2: Can I actually ask you, Matt, and I apologize for 1472 01:07:49,120 --> 01:07:53,800 Speaker 2: this but in all honesty, when I'm going to do 1473 01:07:53,840 --> 01:07:56,440 Speaker 2: this for people that are listening that maybe you're not 1474 01:07:56,600 --> 01:07:59,120 Speaker 2: the every day, every moment NFL fans, which I think 1475 01:07:59,120 --> 01:08:01,920 Speaker 2: the vast majority p BLL are. Okay, but when you 1476 01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:04,640 Speaker 2: hear a defense that is quote press man the man 1477 01:08:04,840 --> 01:08:08,240 Speaker 2: versus say a cover two or a zone coverage, can 1478 01:08:08,280 --> 01:08:10,800 Speaker 2: you explain? You know, your wife's a teacher, right yep? 1479 01:08:11,440 --> 01:08:13,760 Speaker 2: Used to be what's that used to be? Yeah, well 1480 01:08:13,800 --> 01:08:17,639 Speaker 2: before you became the voice of the calls. Let's be real. 1481 01:08:17,840 --> 01:08:20,160 Speaker 11: I mean she needed she needed to change. 1482 01:08:20,200 --> 01:08:22,559 Speaker 2: No, I understand, But but if you were to talk 1483 01:08:22,640 --> 01:08:25,000 Speaker 2: to her class and explain to them what you mean 1484 01:08:25,040 --> 01:08:27,479 Speaker 2: when you say press man and sticky you mean what? 1485 01:08:28,080 --> 01:08:28,360 Speaker 11: Well? 1486 01:08:28,640 --> 01:08:32,360 Speaker 13: The Colts have notorious the last couple of UH seasons 1487 01:08:32,960 --> 01:08:37,479 Speaker 13: under two different regimes defensively Matt Eberflus and Gus Bradley. 1488 01:08:38,000 --> 01:08:42,160 Speaker 13: They've been heavy zone defense. And what they're trying to 1489 01:08:42,200 --> 01:08:45,880 Speaker 13: do is make life more difficult for the opposing quarterback 1490 01:08:46,080 --> 01:08:51,280 Speaker 13: and to make those throwing lanes, decrease those and get 1491 01:08:51,320 --> 01:08:53,920 Speaker 13: more hands on the football. So by press man to man, 1492 01:08:53,960 --> 01:08:56,599 Speaker 13: it's your your man up on. You know your you're 1493 01:08:56,960 --> 01:08:58,839 Speaker 13: you're in charge of a guy instead of an area 1494 01:08:58,920 --> 01:09:01,880 Speaker 13: man on man, and you're up on them at the 1495 01:09:01,880 --> 01:09:05,200 Speaker 13: line of scrimmage, and you're trying to what we used 1496 01:09:05,200 --> 01:09:07,519 Speaker 13: to call when I played reroute a guy make you know, 1497 01:09:07,600 --> 01:09:11,120 Speaker 13: if they're trying to hit their spot in the secondary, 1498 01:09:11,600 --> 01:09:13,680 Speaker 13: trying to get to a certain place to make their 1499 01:09:13,720 --> 01:09:16,519 Speaker 13: cut and make their break, you want to reroute them 1500 01:09:16,560 --> 01:09:20,360 Speaker 13: to throw off the timing of the play. So rules wise, 1501 01:09:20,400 --> 01:09:22,360 Speaker 13: you're allowed to be up on a guy within five 1502 01:09:22,439 --> 01:09:23,840 Speaker 13: yards in a line of scrimmage. 1503 01:09:24,520 --> 01:09:25,879 Speaker 11: And guys are really good. 1504 01:09:25,720 --> 01:09:29,640 Speaker 13: At that, like Charvarius Ward I think Juju Brins can 1505 01:09:29,680 --> 01:09:32,200 Speaker 13: really excel at that. Jalen Jones I think is getting 1506 01:09:32,240 --> 01:09:34,599 Speaker 13: better at that. But they just haven't done a lot 1507 01:09:34,680 --> 01:09:36,440 Speaker 13: of that in recent past. 1508 01:09:36,240 --> 01:09:40,040 Speaker 2: Because instead what they were doing was doing area by committee, 1509 01:09:40,080 --> 01:09:43,080 Speaker 2: right of, Hey, I'm in charge of this square area 1510 01:09:43,160 --> 01:09:45,000 Speaker 2: and then as soon as guy goes out of it, 1511 01:09:45,040 --> 01:09:47,000 Speaker 2: then Matt comes over and he's in charge of that guy. 1512 01:09:47,000 --> 01:09:47,160 Speaker 1: Now. 1513 01:09:47,280 --> 01:09:49,479 Speaker 13: Yeah, a lot of zone coverage, a lot of Cover two, 1514 01:09:49,680 --> 01:09:52,160 Speaker 13: a lot of Cover three under Gus Bradley, some cover 1515 01:09:52,240 --> 01:09:56,200 Speaker 13: four as well. But to put it simply, they want 1516 01:09:56,240 --> 01:10:00,479 Speaker 13: to make life more difficult for the opposition because it's 1517 01:10:00,520 --> 01:10:02,360 Speaker 13: just been it's been frustrating. 1518 01:10:02,400 --> 01:10:03,400 Speaker 11: You and I have talked about this. 1519 01:10:03,479 --> 01:10:06,080 Speaker 13: The hallmarks of the defense the last couple of years 1520 01:10:06,120 --> 01:10:10,880 Speaker 13: have been the other team's best player offensively, primarily skill 1521 01:10:10,920 --> 01:10:14,040 Speaker 13: player wise at receiver have gone off against the Colts. 1522 01:10:14,080 --> 01:10:15,840 Speaker 13: You know, going in when you play the Texans, you 1523 01:10:15,880 --> 01:10:18,080 Speaker 13: got to stop Nico Collins. You know, when you play 1524 01:10:18,080 --> 01:10:20,080 Speaker 13: the Jaguars twice a year, you got to stop Brian 1525 01:10:20,120 --> 01:10:22,439 Speaker 13: Thomas Junior. And those guys are going over one hundred 1526 01:10:22,520 --> 01:10:25,120 Speaker 13: yards and they're scoring touchdowns and they're making big plays. 1527 01:10:25,840 --> 01:10:27,240 Speaker 13: So they want to be a little bit more games 1528 01:10:27,240 --> 01:10:30,040 Speaker 13: specific within this defense, and they want to play more 1529 01:10:30,040 --> 01:10:35,080 Speaker 13: press man. When you don't blitz as often as the 1530 01:10:35,120 --> 01:10:37,960 Speaker 13: Colts did not under Gus Bradley, and you sit back 1531 01:10:37,960 --> 01:10:41,800 Speaker 13: and you play zone defense behind it, it led to 1532 01:10:41,880 --> 01:10:45,560 Speaker 13: the other team's quarterback completing right around seventy percent of 1533 01:10:45,600 --> 01:10:48,960 Speaker 13: their throws for the season. Just too many easy throws, 1534 01:10:49,040 --> 01:10:51,200 Speaker 13: too many ways to get into a rhythm and build 1535 01:10:51,240 --> 01:10:54,160 Speaker 13: timing and things like that throughout the course of the game. 1536 01:10:54,280 --> 01:10:56,760 Speaker 13: So what they want to do is is get up 1537 01:10:56,800 --> 01:11:00,639 Speaker 13: on receivers take them away. In the case of charveyreus Ward, 1538 01:11:00,720 --> 01:11:04,040 Speaker 13: maybe he shadows a receiver and just completely follows that 1539 01:11:04,120 --> 01:11:07,320 Speaker 13: guy no matter where he's lining up formationally. But at 1540 01:11:07,320 --> 01:11:10,200 Speaker 13: the very least his addition takes away one half of 1541 01:11:10,240 --> 01:11:11,400 Speaker 13: the field in the secondary. 1542 01:11:11,520 --> 01:11:14,120 Speaker 2: What player defensively for the Colts Matt Taylor's voice of 1543 01:11:14,120 --> 01:11:15,960 Speaker 2: the Colts is our guest. Here we're at Grand Park 1544 01:11:16,000 --> 01:11:18,680 Speaker 2: practice number two in the books for the Colts. They 1545 01:11:18,720 --> 01:11:21,320 Speaker 2: get back on the practice field tomorrow from ten until 1546 01:11:21,400 --> 01:11:22,639 Speaker 2: roughly eleven fifteen. 1547 01:11:23,479 --> 01:11:25,200 Speaker 1: Is there a player that you look at. 1548 01:11:25,080 --> 01:11:29,679 Speaker 2: Matt defensively in a zone system that was a really 1549 01:11:29,720 --> 01:11:32,880 Speaker 2: good player and now you have a big question mark 1550 01:11:33,160 --> 01:11:35,759 Speaker 2: as to whether or not that transfers to them playing 1551 01:11:35,800 --> 01:11:38,160 Speaker 2: more into a man coverage. 1552 01:11:38,400 --> 01:11:39,599 Speaker 11: No, I don't really. 1553 01:11:39,600 --> 01:11:41,439 Speaker 13: I mean it's a really good question, but I don't 1554 01:11:41,479 --> 01:11:45,040 Speaker 13: think that, you know, the Colts had, for lack of 1555 01:11:45,040 --> 01:11:47,880 Speaker 13: a better term, like specific zone guys and then they 1556 01:11:47,880 --> 01:11:49,559 Speaker 13: have specific man demand guys. 1557 01:11:49,600 --> 01:11:51,200 Speaker 11: I do think bringing in. 1558 01:11:51,200 --> 01:11:53,320 Speaker 1: Do some defenses? Do you think do some franchises do 1559 01:11:53,360 --> 01:11:53,760 Speaker 1: it that way? 1560 01:11:54,360 --> 01:11:54,760 Speaker 11: I don't know. 1561 01:11:54,800 --> 01:11:57,400 Speaker 13: That's a good question, don't I don't think so. I 1562 01:11:57,439 --> 01:12:00,200 Speaker 13: think it's more of you know, this is so of 1563 01:12:00,240 --> 01:12:03,639 Speaker 13: who we are. This is our scheme and we want 1564 01:12:03,640 --> 01:12:05,640 Speaker 13: to be games specific, but we also don't want to 1565 01:12:05,680 --> 01:12:09,160 Speaker 13: just change everything that we do from an implementation standpoint 1566 01:12:09,920 --> 01:12:13,559 Speaker 13: within our scheme, if that makes sense. But I do 1567 01:12:13,760 --> 01:12:18,200 Speaker 13: know talking with the guys individually, they're really excited to 1568 01:12:18,600 --> 01:12:21,519 Speaker 13: be able to be a little bit more aggressive. Take 1569 01:12:21,560 --> 01:12:25,080 Speaker 13: things to the offense. Right, let's dictate terms to them 1570 01:12:25,120 --> 01:12:27,479 Speaker 13: instead of maybe the other way around. So, I mean 1571 01:12:27,479 --> 01:12:29,760 Speaker 13: I talked to Juju Brents in the offseason. He was 1572 01:12:29,920 --> 01:12:32,759 Speaker 13: really excited, and he's perfect for this because he's long, 1573 01:12:33,160 --> 01:12:36,519 Speaker 13: he's got long arms, he's got adequate speed. I think 1574 01:12:36,560 --> 01:12:39,559 Speaker 13: he can really excel plan press Man War definitely can 1575 01:12:40,479 --> 01:12:43,200 Speaker 13: Jalen Jones can. I mean justin Wally based on what 1576 01:12:43,200 --> 01:12:47,320 Speaker 13: we've seen so far, he can excel doing no matter 1577 01:12:47,400 --> 01:12:49,800 Speaker 13: what scheme you have and no matter where you line 1578 01:12:49,880 --> 01:12:52,320 Speaker 13: them up positionally, because he can play outside, you can 1579 01:12:52,320 --> 01:12:55,640 Speaker 13: play insight too. So I do think personnel wise, the 1580 01:12:55,640 --> 01:12:59,240 Speaker 13: Colts have the pieces in place to pull this off, 1581 01:12:59,280 --> 01:13:01,160 Speaker 13: and they also want to the Skies. Things in the 1582 01:13:01,200 --> 01:13:06,240 Speaker 13: secondary line up different places and kind of cloud that 1583 01:13:06,360 --> 01:13:08,880 Speaker 13: picture for the quarterback pre snap, just create a little 1584 01:13:08,880 --> 01:13:10,040 Speaker 13: bit of a shadow of a doubt. 1585 01:13:10,320 --> 01:13:12,200 Speaker 1: You know, That's what they did when you take any 1586 01:13:12,200 --> 01:13:13,120 Speaker 1: shadow we can get out. 1587 01:13:13,000 --> 01:13:14,960 Speaker 11: Here today we will, no question. 1588 01:13:15,720 --> 01:13:18,400 Speaker 13: But I mean that's that's what Cincinnati did when they 1589 01:13:18,400 --> 01:13:20,160 Speaker 13: were humming. You know, when they went to the AFC 1590 01:13:20,240 --> 01:13:22,800 Speaker 13: Championship Game two years in a row advance to the 1591 01:13:22,800 --> 01:13:25,840 Speaker 13: Super Bowl, they were able to beat Patrick Mahomes just 1592 01:13:25,880 --> 01:13:29,080 Speaker 13: by clouding that picture just enough pre snap at the 1593 01:13:29,120 --> 01:13:32,280 Speaker 13: line of scrimmage, by you know, rolling a different way 1594 01:13:32,479 --> 01:13:35,360 Speaker 13: or lining up a different spot, or bringing a guy 1595 01:13:35,479 --> 01:13:38,320 Speaker 13: or dropping a guy back. So they made it a 1596 01:13:38,360 --> 01:13:40,920 Speaker 13: big emphasis in the off season to bringing guys that 1597 01:13:40,960 --> 01:13:44,120 Speaker 13: can do that, that have experience, that are savvy, and 1598 01:13:44,160 --> 01:13:45,040 Speaker 13: they're more playmakers. 1599 01:13:45,080 --> 01:13:47,800 Speaker 2: Now, wait a minute, I'm curious. Here you have a 1600 01:13:47,800 --> 01:13:50,720 Speaker 2: training camp. It says training camp official here credential. Yeah, 1601 01:13:50,720 --> 01:13:53,479 Speaker 2: it's at the Big Colts fancy landyard. Yeah, mine just 1602 01:13:53,479 --> 01:13:56,120 Speaker 2: says training camp media. Now, what's the difference. What makes 1603 01:13:56,120 --> 01:13:56,920 Speaker 2: you official in me? 1604 01:13:56,920 --> 01:13:57,240 Speaker 1: Media? 1605 01:13:57,720 --> 01:13:59,240 Speaker 13: Well, I do know that's got me in the suite 1606 01:13:59,240 --> 01:14:01,479 Speaker 13: the other day, So maybe that's the difference. I was 1607 01:14:01,520 --> 01:14:03,680 Speaker 13: able to walk up the stairs say how Yeah, I 1608 01:14:03,720 --> 01:14:05,519 Speaker 13: was able to say hi to your guy Mark James 1609 01:14:06,120 --> 01:14:07,479 Speaker 13: yesterday he was up with the suite. 1610 01:14:07,560 --> 01:14:09,800 Speaker 11: I don't know, he's got connection what's going on here? 1611 01:14:09,840 --> 01:14:11,880 Speaker 11: He was out there with a lance shive and I. 1612 01:14:11,840 --> 01:14:13,439 Speaker 1: Went to the Portland was locked. 1613 01:14:14,360 --> 01:14:15,160 Speaker 11: What's the difference? 1614 01:14:15,439 --> 01:14:19,400 Speaker 2: That's what we're solving all kinds of problems here, right, 1615 01:14:19,479 --> 01:14:23,240 Speaker 2: I'm official to go to the bathroom, and you're you're 1616 01:14:23,240 --> 01:14:26,160 Speaker 2: obviously getting the man press credential, and I'm trying to 1617 01:14:26,160 --> 01:14:27,320 Speaker 2: walk around here in his own right. 1618 01:14:27,400 --> 01:14:29,160 Speaker 1: You're, yeah, you're I'm old news. 1619 01:14:29,640 --> 01:14:31,400 Speaker 11: Yesterday's still a lot of grass around here. 1620 01:14:31,439 --> 01:14:31,600 Speaker 6: You know. 1621 01:14:31,640 --> 01:14:34,559 Speaker 2: Hey, I'm curious of this, and I don't know how 1622 01:14:34,560 --> 01:14:36,400 Speaker 2: to word this, so you tell me if this makes sense. 1623 01:14:36,640 --> 01:14:39,160 Speaker 1: I've thought a lot about this quarterback situation. 1624 01:14:39,880 --> 01:14:42,920 Speaker 2: And I think we know that the ceiling for Anthony 1625 01:14:43,000 --> 01:14:45,759 Speaker 2: Richardson maybe is higher than the ceiling for Daniel Jones. 1626 01:14:45,840 --> 01:14:47,920 Speaker 2: Or maybe we have a better idea of the ceiling 1627 01:14:47,960 --> 01:14:50,559 Speaker 2: of Daniel Jones, because he's been able to show that 1628 01:14:50,640 --> 01:14:52,439 Speaker 2: a little bit with New York before he came here. 1629 01:14:53,240 --> 01:14:56,519 Speaker 2: But even though I realized this is a legitimate open 1630 01:14:56,600 --> 01:15:00,920 Speaker 2: quarterback competition, it feels to me like Anniel Jones can't 1631 01:15:00,960 --> 01:15:06,559 Speaker 2: necessarily win the competition. It's rather he wins it only 1632 01:15:06,560 --> 01:15:10,240 Speaker 2: if Anthony Richardson loses. And does that make sense? Like, 1633 01:15:10,280 --> 01:15:14,360 Speaker 2: you defer to Jones as your fallback in case the 1634 01:15:14,400 --> 01:15:16,880 Speaker 2: guy that you have handed the keys to very early 1635 01:15:16,960 --> 01:15:20,120 Speaker 2: on and has all the tools doesn't take advantage of that. 1636 01:15:21,200 --> 01:15:23,400 Speaker 13: Yeah, I get what you're saying. You know, this to 1637 01:15:23,439 --> 01:15:26,080 Speaker 13: me all goes back to the whole idea of a 1638 01:15:26,160 --> 01:15:29,559 Speaker 13: quarterback competition. And they really announced this to the world 1639 01:15:30,200 --> 01:15:33,240 Speaker 13: at the Combine. And I remember being on radio row 1640 01:15:33,280 --> 01:15:35,519 Speaker 13: at the Combine and talking to national people, and there 1641 01:15:35,600 --> 01:15:38,160 Speaker 13: was a lot of people that we interviewed and had 1642 01:15:38,240 --> 01:15:40,280 Speaker 13: on our airwaves that were critical of this, like this 1643 01:15:40,320 --> 01:15:44,439 Speaker 13: whole concept of if anything, Anthony Richardson just needs more 1644 01:15:44,520 --> 01:15:45,320 Speaker 13: time on task. 1645 01:15:45,560 --> 01:15:47,200 Speaker 11: You know why he's. 1646 01:15:46,960 --> 01:15:49,680 Speaker 13: Been injured and you know you've taken him off the 1647 01:15:49,680 --> 01:15:52,960 Speaker 13: field because of lack of preparation issues or just there's 1648 01:15:53,160 --> 01:15:55,719 Speaker 13: a little bit of a disconnect in terms of getting 1649 01:15:55,760 --> 01:15:59,960 Speaker 13: ready for games, you know, Monday through Saturday, whatever they can. 1650 01:16:00,520 --> 01:16:02,439 Speaker 11: He's just missed a lot of time on the field. 1651 01:16:02,520 --> 01:16:06,320 Speaker 13: And some people were like, why bring in another quarterback 1652 01:16:06,400 --> 01:16:10,000 Speaker 13: to take valuable reps away from him in the spring 1653 01:16:10,200 --> 01:16:13,000 Speaker 13: and in training camp when all he does is need reps. 1654 01:16:13,240 --> 01:16:17,920 Speaker 13: He needs more experience. And I get that, I really do. 1655 01:16:18,040 --> 01:16:21,759 Speaker 13: I think that's a fair argument. But on the other hand, 1656 01:16:21,920 --> 01:16:24,480 Speaker 13: I agree with what the cults are doing in this situation. 1657 01:16:24,680 --> 01:16:27,839 Speaker 13: In that listen, man, you've missed the playoffs four years. 1658 01:16:27,680 --> 01:16:28,120 Speaker 11: In a row. 1659 01:16:28,680 --> 01:16:31,559 Speaker 13: It's time to go right. You haven't won a division 1660 01:16:31,600 --> 01:16:34,360 Speaker 13: since twenty fourteen. Every other team in your division's won 1661 01:16:34,360 --> 01:16:39,160 Speaker 13: at least twice, haven't won a playoff game since twenty eighteen. Like, 1662 01:16:39,280 --> 01:16:42,400 Speaker 13: there's a lot of urgency. And this is the NFL. 1663 01:16:42,439 --> 01:16:44,719 Speaker 13: It stands for not for long and quite frankly, jobs 1664 01:16:44,760 --> 01:16:48,080 Speaker 13: are on the line. Everybody knows that. So what are 1665 01:16:48,120 --> 01:16:50,479 Speaker 13: you gonna do with Anthony Richardson? Are you just gonna 1666 01:16:50,479 --> 01:16:53,000 Speaker 13: hope that it works out or do you need to 1667 01:16:53,080 --> 01:16:56,760 Speaker 13: have competition for him in order to push him to 1668 01:16:56,800 --> 01:16:59,880 Speaker 13: become a better player, but also too to have an 1669 01:17:00,040 --> 01:17:03,760 Speaker 13: insurance package because he's missed you know, he's played less 1670 01:17:03,760 --> 01:17:07,040 Speaker 13: than half of his available starts available to him, I 1671 01:17:07,040 --> 01:17:09,680 Speaker 13: should say, in his first two years, So you have 1672 01:17:09,760 --> 01:17:12,800 Speaker 13: to have Daniel Jones in here to compete and push him. 1673 01:17:12,800 --> 01:17:16,200 Speaker 13: But also if Richardson continues to get hurt, a guy 1674 01:17:16,200 --> 01:17:19,120 Speaker 13: that can play and has played at a high level 1675 01:17:19,240 --> 01:17:21,599 Speaker 13: in Spurts so far in his NFL career. 1676 01:17:21,640 --> 01:17:23,000 Speaker 2: I want to ask you about a couple of guys 1677 01:17:23,000 --> 01:17:25,400 Speaker 2: that have jumped out so far in this camp, but 1678 01:17:26,080 --> 01:17:27,360 Speaker 2: we got to squeeze one in real quick. 1679 01:17:27,360 --> 01:17:28,600 Speaker 1: Do you squeeze in a break real quick? Do you 1680 01:17:28,640 --> 01:17:30,000 Speaker 1: got time to stick around for fifteen more minutes? 1681 01:17:30,000 --> 01:17:30,600 Speaker 11: Absolutely right? 1682 01:17:30,640 --> 01:17:31,920 Speaker 2: I want to talk to Matt Taylor about a couple 1683 01:17:31,960 --> 01:17:33,599 Speaker 2: of guys that I think have jumped out a little 1684 01:17:33,640 --> 01:17:36,040 Speaker 2: bit here, and maybe some that we're waiting to jump start, 1685 01:17:36,080 --> 01:17:37,760 Speaker 2: even though it's only been two practices. We'll do it 1686 01:17:37,840 --> 01:17:40,719 Speaker 2: other side as we return to Grand Park, Colts Camp, 1687 01:17:40,760 --> 01:17:45,800 Speaker 2: day number two. Here quan company on the fan. It 1688 01:17:45,840 --> 01:17:47,759 Speaker 2: is indeed great balls a fire out here. We should 1689 01:17:47,760 --> 01:17:49,760 Speaker 2: probably play the whole Cogan theme at some point a 1690 01:17:49,800 --> 01:17:52,920 Speaker 2: couple of times too today in honor of Hull Cogan 1691 01:17:52,960 --> 01:17:54,880 Speaker 2: passing away. If you were just joining us, that news 1692 01:17:54,880 --> 01:17:56,960 Speaker 2: coming out just as we were going on today, Matt 1693 01:17:57,000 --> 01:17:58,479 Speaker 2: Taylor back. 1694 01:17:58,320 --> 01:17:59,080 Speaker 1: With us here. 1695 01:17:59,160 --> 01:18:02,760 Speaker 2: We're at Colts Camp, Grand Park up in Westfield, day 1696 01:18:02,840 --> 01:18:03,559 Speaker 2: number two in the books. 1697 01:18:03,560 --> 01:18:04,760 Speaker 1: All right, let me throw a couple of guys. You 1698 01:18:04,840 --> 01:18:05,720 Speaker 1: tell me what jumped out? 1699 01:18:05,800 --> 01:18:09,120 Speaker 2: Okay from the get go, I mean from the very 1700 01:18:09,160 --> 01:18:11,439 Speaker 2: get go, and we interviewed him right, after the draft, 1701 01:18:11,439 --> 01:18:13,559 Speaker 2: and I thought he was a fun interview. But Justin 1702 01:18:13,600 --> 01:18:15,960 Speaker 2: Wally appears to be a guy that, at least off field, 1703 01:18:16,000 --> 01:18:18,479 Speaker 2: Chris Ballard and the Colt Sprass are very high on yep. 1704 01:18:18,600 --> 01:18:21,200 Speaker 2: Has that translated to him getting opportunity here on field? 1705 01:18:21,280 --> 01:18:21,439 Speaker 1: Oh? 1706 01:18:21,520 --> 01:18:23,800 Speaker 13: Definitely with that question. No, Kenny Moore today. I don't 1707 01:18:23,800 --> 01:18:25,040 Speaker 13: know if it was a rest day or. 1708 01:18:25,080 --> 01:18:27,680 Speaker 2: What, but Kenny Moore was one of four veterans that 1709 01:18:27,720 --> 01:18:31,240 Speaker 2: did a rest day. Those four that did not practice 1710 01:18:31,320 --> 01:18:34,000 Speaker 2: day Diforest, Buckner, Taekwon Lewis, Kenny Moore, and Braden Smith. 1711 01:18:34,040 --> 01:18:37,040 Speaker 13: There you go, but it's pretty clear through two days. 1712 01:18:37,080 --> 01:18:38,760 Speaker 13: And then you couple this with what we saw in 1713 01:18:38,800 --> 01:18:42,080 Speaker 13: the spring. Justin Wally is he's made a really good 1714 01:18:42,120 --> 01:18:44,879 Speaker 13: first impression. They trust him with a lot of stuff. 1715 01:18:45,120 --> 01:18:49,040 Speaker 13: Versatility wise, he's playing outside, he's playing inside, doesn't appear 1716 01:18:49,080 --> 01:18:52,040 Speaker 13: too big for him. And it's just a classic case 1717 01:18:52,080 --> 01:18:55,400 Speaker 13: of just be ready for anything and when opportunity comes, 1718 01:18:55,800 --> 01:18:59,120 Speaker 13: you have to seize it. And during the spring, Juju 1719 01:18:59,120 --> 01:19:01,960 Speaker 13: Brince was dealing with something minor, Jalen Jones was dealing 1720 01:19:01,960 --> 01:19:05,559 Speaker 13: with something minor. Here comes Justin Wally and OTAs out 1721 01:19:05,600 --> 01:19:08,920 Speaker 13: there with the first team defense, he's you know, banging around, 1722 01:19:09,000 --> 01:19:12,000 Speaker 13: clanging around on Michael Pittman Junior gets his hands on 1723 01:19:12,040 --> 01:19:15,360 Speaker 13: the ball, it takes it away from Josh Downs in 1724 01:19:15,400 --> 01:19:18,040 Speaker 13: a drill back in the spring, and he just parlayed 1725 01:19:18,040 --> 01:19:21,559 Speaker 13: that right into intermixing with the first team defense right 1726 01:19:21,600 --> 01:19:23,840 Speaker 13: away here at the beginning of training camp. And I 1727 01:19:23,920 --> 01:19:27,000 Speaker 13: just go back to Draft night, you know, day two 1728 01:19:27,040 --> 01:19:30,120 Speaker 13: of the draft, Jake. I don't know if you subscribe to, 1729 01:19:30,280 --> 01:19:33,080 Speaker 13: you know, all the Draft Knicks stuff. I try to 1730 01:19:33,120 --> 01:19:35,919 Speaker 13: read a lot, so nothing to me is total gospel. 1731 01:19:35,960 --> 01:19:38,519 Speaker 13: But depending on what you read on justin Wally, coming 1732 01:19:38,560 --> 01:19:39,920 Speaker 13: out of the draft, he was either going to be 1733 01:19:40,520 --> 01:19:43,519 Speaker 13: a third round pick, a late day two guy, or 1734 01:19:43,520 --> 01:19:45,519 Speaker 13: he could be an early day three guy, or some 1735 01:19:45,640 --> 01:19:48,600 Speaker 13: had him as like a round six, round seven. And 1736 01:19:48,640 --> 01:19:50,920 Speaker 13: the Colts were pretty honest with like, we don't really 1737 01:19:51,000 --> 01:19:52,760 Speaker 13: care what other people say. We were going to draft 1738 01:19:52,800 --> 01:19:55,679 Speaker 13: him where we had him slotted, and we thought about 1739 01:19:55,760 --> 01:19:58,360 Speaker 13: taking him higher compared to where they did in the 1740 01:19:58,400 --> 01:20:00,880 Speaker 13: third round. And I'm pair of phrasing here, but Chris 1741 01:20:00,960 --> 01:20:05,040 Speaker 13: Ballard said, I couldn't stand the thought of losing this guy. 1742 01:20:05,080 --> 01:20:07,559 Speaker 13: I don't think I could have slept draft night, missing 1743 01:20:07,600 --> 01:20:09,840 Speaker 13: out on a chance to draft Justin Wally. So they're 1744 01:20:09,880 --> 01:20:12,679 Speaker 13: that high on him. So it's pretty clear right away 1745 01:20:12,720 --> 01:20:16,120 Speaker 13: that he's he's gonna have a role. Tyler Warren, you know, 1746 01:20:16,560 --> 01:20:19,120 Speaker 13: Jim Bob Cooter said today, and I think it's pretty accurate, 1747 01:20:19,160 --> 01:20:21,599 Speaker 13: Like once we get the pads on, you're gonna see 1748 01:20:21,640 --> 01:20:23,720 Speaker 13: Tyler Warren start to come alive a little bit. Not 1749 01:20:23,760 --> 01:20:26,400 Speaker 13: that he's not making an impact already, but you're gonna 1750 01:20:26,400 --> 01:20:29,759 Speaker 13: see that physicality and that versatility really start to shine 1751 01:20:30,080 --> 01:20:33,240 Speaker 13: once you start putting the pads on and things ramp up. 1752 01:20:33,240 --> 01:20:35,479 Speaker 2: In terms of strike you more as a Dallas Clark 1753 01:20:35,479 --> 01:20:39,360 Speaker 2: across the middle end stride receiver or a Kobe Fleener 1754 01:20:39,439 --> 01:20:41,839 Speaker 2: hybrid tight end that is more of a receiver. 1755 01:20:42,080 --> 01:20:45,320 Speaker 11: Yeah, definitely Dallas Clark. Yeah. I mean to me, he 1756 01:20:45,439 --> 01:20:46,320 Speaker 11: reminds me of a guy. 1757 01:20:46,360 --> 01:20:48,160 Speaker 13: You know, I said this when he was drafted because 1758 01:20:48,640 --> 01:20:50,600 Speaker 13: just watching his film, and I'll be honest with you, 1759 01:20:50,600 --> 01:20:52,240 Speaker 13: I'll raise my hand like I didn't know who Tyler 1760 01:20:52,280 --> 01:20:54,280 Speaker 13: Warren was this time last year, right, And I don't 1761 01:20:54,280 --> 01:20:56,400 Speaker 13: think a lot of people did either, because he was 1762 01:20:56,439 --> 01:20:58,640 Speaker 13: behind some really good players at Penn State and just 1763 01:20:58,640 --> 01:21:01,360 Speaker 13: this past season, Like, I mean, who catches one hundred 1764 01:21:01,400 --> 01:21:02,360 Speaker 13: passes as a tight end? 1765 01:21:02,400 --> 01:21:04,799 Speaker 11: Like it just it's everywhere everywhere. 1766 01:21:04,840 --> 01:21:07,680 Speaker 13: I mean, to me, my coming out party or my 1767 01:21:08,479 --> 01:21:11,920 Speaker 13: enlightenment on Tyler Warren was that USC game. I'm down 1768 01:21:11,920 --> 01:21:13,880 Speaker 13: in Tennessee getting ready to play the Titans. I'm in 1769 01:21:13,920 --> 01:21:16,680 Speaker 13: a hotel in Nashville, just watching college football, and I 1770 01:21:16,720 --> 01:21:18,960 Speaker 13: see that USC game where he lines up at center 1771 01:21:19,240 --> 01:21:20,840 Speaker 13: and they do the double pass and then he goes 1772 01:21:20,920 --> 01:21:22,960 Speaker 13: down the field and he catches that ball in the 1773 01:21:23,040 --> 01:21:25,040 Speaker 13: end zone with two linebackers draped on him. 1774 01:21:25,080 --> 01:21:26,880 Speaker 11: I'm like, who the hell is this guy? 1775 01:21:27,160 --> 01:21:30,960 Speaker 13: He's got like fourteen catches in this game or something ridiculous. 1776 01:21:31,000 --> 01:21:34,800 Speaker 13: So yeah, I think he reminds me of a guy 1777 01:21:34,800 --> 01:21:36,840 Speaker 13: that could play in twenty twenty five or a guy 1778 01:21:36,840 --> 01:21:40,480 Speaker 13: in nineteen seventy five. Like he's just that physically gifted. 1779 01:21:41,200 --> 01:21:43,360 Speaker 13: He doesn't shy away from contact, and he's just that 1780 01:21:43,479 --> 01:21:44,000 Speaker 13: athletic too. 1781 01:21:44,040 --> 01:21:45,000 Speaker 1: Okay. Daniel Jones. 1782 01:21:45,680 --> 01:21:49,519 Speaker 13: Daniel Jones, to me, he is looking like the Daniel 1783 01:21:49,600 --> 01:21:52,599 Speaker 13: Jones who we saw back in OTAs. And the biggest 1784 01:21:52,600 --> 01:21:56,000 Speaker 13: compliment I can give to him is that he back 1785 01:21:56,000 --> 01:21:58,080 Speaker 13: in the spring did not look at all like a 1786 01:21:58,080 --> 01:22:00,879 Speaker 13: guy who's been here only since March. Really good command 1787 01:22:00,880 --> 01:22:03,360 Speaker 13: of the huddle, really good command of the playbook. And 1788 01:22:03,400 --> 01:22:06,599 Speaker 13: we forget too that Daniel Jones twice in his career 1789 01:22:06,600 --> 01:22:08,799 Speaker 13: has completed over sixty five percent of his passes. 1790 01:22:09,120 --> 01:22:12,040 Speaker 11: If you have that level of completion percentage on this team. 1791 01:22:12,200 --> 01:22:14,320 Speaker 13: Some of that's rhythm passing, right, Yeah, a lot of it, 1792 01:22:14,360 --> 01:22:16,440 Speaker 13: to be fair, has been short intermediate. 1793 01:22:16,439 --> 01:22:18,080 Speaker 1: But but you kind of want that, right, But where 1794 01:22:18,080 --> 01:22:19,960 Speaker 1: did the colt struggle last year? Right? That's what I mean? 1795 01:22:20,080 --> 01:22:21,920 Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean, so if they would have had his 1796 01:22:22,120 --> 01:22:24,240 Speaker 13: and I'm going to use this word and it's going 1797 01:22:24,320 --> 01:22:26,320 Speaker 13: to sound like I'm slighting him, but I don't really 1798 01:22:26,360 --> 01:22:27,840 Speaker 13: mean to at all. But if you would have had 1799 01:22:27,840 --> 01:22:32,120 Speaker 13: his efficiency and his competence last year, I think they 1800 01:22:32,160 --> 01:22:32,920 Speaker 13: win ten games. 1801 01:22:33,000 --> 01:22:35,160 Speaker 1: Okay lastly, and we got to do it quick. 1802 01:22:35,200 --> 01:22:39,360 Speaker 13: Anthony Richardson, Anthony, I think, you know quick today right 1803 01:22:39,439 --> 01:22:42,880 Speaker 13: through an interception today, So you know yesterday had some 1804 01:22:42,960 --> 01:22:45,280 Speaker 13: drops He's had you know, he suffered some drops by 1805 01:22:45,280 --> 01:22:50,080 Speaker 13: his receivers that didn't do him any favors because you know, Jake, me, 1806 01:22:50,160 --> 01:22:52,559 Speaker 13: everybody out here is keeping track of the completion present 1807 01:22:53,080 --> 01:22:55,479 Speaker 13: of course, the completions versus attempts. 1808 01:22:55,479 --> 01:22:59,120 Speaker 11: So I mean, I think it's just listen, everybody's got 1809 01:22:59,120 --> 01:22:59,639 Speaker 11: a job to. 1810 01:22:59,600 --> 01:23:02,200 Speaker 13: Do, and you know, you got to get clicks, and 1811 01:23:02,240 --> 01:23:04,519 Speaker 13: there's there's so much content between now and the start. 1812 01:23:04,360 --> 01:23:06,680 Speaker 2: Doing a lot of that.

But the announcement from the family coming today, 1849 01:24:41,960 --> 01:24:44,639 Speaker 2: that is one of the great songs. Feels so good 1850 01:24:44,640 --> 01:24:47,920 Speaker 2: from Chuck Mangioni. That reminds me of just like being 1851 01:24:48,120 --> 01:24:49,880 Speaker 2: hauled around in the back of my mom's car. 1852 01:24:49,800 --> 01:24:52,599 Speaker 1: As a kid, and think of it every time. 1853 01:24:52,680 --> 01:24:55,080 Speaker 2: Puts you in a good place, So Chuck Man Joni 1854 01:24:55,120 --> 01:24:57,960 Speaker 2: passing away though at the age of eighty five.

But Big ten 1859 01:25:11,960 --> 01:25:14,240 Speaker 2: Media Day is taking place out in Las Vegas. The 1860 01:25:14,280 --> 01:25:17,040 Speaker 2: only place on Earth. Actually, I take that back. Even 1861 01:25:17,080 --> 01:25:19,120 Speaker 2: in Las Vegas, if they come to Indianapolis, they would 1862 01:25:19,160 --> 01:25:21,160 Speaker 2: find it hot. Right now, If we went to Vegas, 1863 01:25:21,160 --> 01:25:22,560 Speaker 2: I'd think, oh, that's great, so we turn on the 1864 01:25:22,600 --> 01:25:25,600 Speaker 2: air conditioning. Tom Deenhart, our friend from Golden Black, is 1865 01:25:25,640 --> 01:25:27,000 Speaker 2: out there talking Purdue football. 1866 01:25:27,040 --> 01:25:27,240 Speaker 1: Tom. 1867 01:25:27,240 --> 01:25:30,320 Speaker 2: I'll be honest with you. You tell me if you 1868 01:25:30,400 --> 01:25:32,920 Speaker 2: agree or disagree with this statement. But I would assume 1869 01:25:32,960 --> 01:25:35,360 Speaker 2: that of all the years you have covered Purdue football, 1870 01:25:35,439 --> 01:25:38,200 Speaker 2: this one may be as enigmatic as any of them 1871 01:25:38,240 --> 01:25:41,920 Speaker 2: in trying to determine exactly what kind of team you've 1872 01:25:41,920 --> 01:25:43,200 Speaker 2: got that you're going to cover this year. 1873 01:25:43,960 --> 01:25:46,040 Speaker 12: Yeah, no idea. First of all, Jake, I want to say, 1874 01:25:46,080 --> 01:25:48,840 Speaker 12: I am still alive, thank gosh, and. 1875 01:25:49,280 --> 01:25:51,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, sorry, sorry about that on the intro. 1876 01:25:51,280 --> 01:25:54,760 Speaker 12: Right, you've got Ozzy Osbourne to my friend. 1877 01:25:55,000 --> 01:25:57,960 Speaker 2: But Jamal Warner it's four now they use are coming 1878 01:25:58,000 --> 01:26:00,479 Speaker 2: threes now, it's four right, it's crazy. 1879 01:26:00,520 --> 01:26:02,679 Speaker 12: But yeah, I've got no idea, Jake. I'd be lying 1880 01:26:02,720 --> 01:26:04,640 Speaker 12: to you if I said I knew what was going 1881 01:26:04,720 --> 01:26:06,400 Speaker 12: to happen this fall in West Laws and we had 1882 01:26:07,120 --> 01:26:10,120 Speaker 12: over fifty portal transfers, of course, to all the freshmen year, 1883 01:26:10,520 --> 01:26:17,320 Speaker 12: I think seventy newcomers overall, So just a real roster 1884 01:26:17,720 --> 01:26:20,400 Speaker 12: undergone a lot of tumble. So yeah, how will the 1885 01:26:20,439 --> 01:26:22,799 Speaker 12: chemis you develop? Who knows who's going to be the quarterback? 1886 01:26:22,840 --> 01:26:25,320 Speaker 12: Who knows? How will the schemes work? Who knows? On 1887 01:26:25,400 --> 01:26:27,280 Speaker 12: top of all that, Jake, the schedule is all the 1888 01:26:27,400 --> 01:26:28,200 Speaker 12: difficult too. 1889 01:26:29,920 --> 01:26:31,960 Speaker 1: Okay, So let's talk about the schedule itself. 1890 01:26:31,960 --> 01:26:33,479 Speaker 2: And I want to get into one area that I 1891 01:26:33,479 --> 01:26:36,680 Speaker 2: think there is some familiarity for Purdue. But if you 1892 01:26:36,720 --> 01:26:40,040 Speaker 2: were to talk about the schedule itself, you know, it's 1893 01:26:40,080 --> 01:26:43,200 Speaker 2: such a tradition Layden schedule, Like when you look, for example, 1894 01:26:43,200 --> 01:26:45,759 Speaker 2: at the fact of Notre Dame being on the roster. 1895 01:26:45,760 --> 01:26:47,479 Speaker 1: I mean on the schedule. That's one of them that 1896 01:26:47,640 --> 01:26:48,000 Speaker 1: you look. 1897 01:26:47,880 --> 01:26:49,680 Speaker 2: At Notre Dame and you're like, Okay, you know you 1898 01:26:49,760 --> 01:26:52,280 Speaker 2: got to you got to keep that I realized, but 1899 01:26:52,360 --> 01:26:55,200 Speaker 2: that is a daunting one. But it's just before that 1900 01:26:55,280 --> 01:26:57,320 Speaker 2: as well, the fact that you sneak in usc when 1901 01:26:57,360 --> 01:26:59,360 Speaker 2: you're in conference play and you start start out with 1902 01:26:59,400 --> 01:27:03,240 Speaker 2: ball Stateton Illinois, and then you got to go at Michigan, 1903 01:27:03,280 --> 01:27:04,880 Speaker 2: you got to go at Washington, You've got. 1904 01:27:04,760 --> 01:27:05,840 Speaker 1: Ohio State at home. 1905 01:27:05,920 --> 01:27:07,680 Speaker 2: It's going to be really tough, is it not for 1906 01:27:07,760 --> 01:27:09,719 Speaker 2: even Barry Odam to get an idea who they are? 1907 01:27:10,320 --> 01:27:13,040 Speaker 12: Yeah, plus in Indiana and Illinois are now still in 1908 01:27:13,120 --> 01:27:15,320 Speaker 12: the top twenty five, top fifteen teams in the country 1909 01:27:15,360 --> 01:27:18,439 Speaker 12: as well. So lots of heavy lifting. Like you said, 1910 01:27:19,560 --> 01:27:22,000 Speaker 12: just a tall order for for Barry Oldham in year one. 1911 01:27:22,200 --> 01:27:25,720 Speaker 12: He's confident, Jake. We talked to him just moments ago, 1912 01:27:26,120 --> 01:27:28,439 Speaker 12: sort of off stage. He goes on stage. You're eleven 1913 01:27:28,560 --> 01:27:31,519 Speaker 12: forty five Pacific time on the big stage, the big dais. 1914 01:27:31,520 --> 01:27:34,840 Speaker 12: But we talked to him again and he talked about 1915 01:27:34,840 --> 01:27:38,080 Speaker 12: that non conference schedule a little bit. No plans for 1916 01:27:38,080 --> 01:27:40,720 Speaker 12: for you to alter its non conference schedule based for 1917 01:27:40,760 --> 01:27:43,840 Speaker 12: the foreseeable future. Who knows what college football will look 1918 01:27:43,920 --> 01:27:46,080 Speaker 12: like for the next two years anyway, but he knows 1919 01:27:46,120 --> 01:27:48,040 Speaker 12: what he's up against. But you know, Barry Older, he 1920 01:27:48,120 --> 01:27:50,679 Speaker 12: talked to him. You know, he's ready to embrace those 1921 01:27:50,800 --> 01:27:54,120 Speaker 12: challenges and he knows there are many. And I think 1922 01:27:54,160 --> 01:27:56,840 Speaker 12: he was on Indianapolis Radio too and talked about the 1923 01:27:56,880 --> 01:28:01,000 Speaker 12: quarterback situation as well. That's going to be very interesting 1924 01:28:01,040 --> 01:28:03,600 Speaker 12: to see how it sorts out with Ryan Brown and 1925 01:28:03,640 --> 01:28:07,640 Speaker 12: Malachi Singleton, of course, mean the two primary contendents for 1926 01:28:07,720 --> 01:28:09,840 Speaker 12: that job, and Jake I think when a push comes 1927 01:28:09,840 --> 01:28:12,080 Speaker 12: to shove, Ryan Brown is going to be your guy. 1928 01:28:13,520 --> 01:28:17,080 Speaker 2: When you look at Purdue, Tom Tom Dear Tom Deanhard 1929 01:28:17,080 --> 01:28:18,040 Speaker 2: our guest from Golden Black. 1930 01:28:18,040 --> 01:28:19,320 Speaker 1: We're talking about Purdue. He's out. 1931 01:28:19,320 --> 01:28:22,160 Speaker 2: Tom is at Big Ten media days out in Las Vegas, 1932 01:28:22,160 --> 01:28:24,519 Speaker 2: the convenient locale for the Big Ten of Las Vegas. 1933 01:28:25,240 --> 01:28:28,439 Speaker 2: When you look at the roster, the one thing that 1934 01:28:28,960 --> 01:28:31,760 Speaker 2: jumps out of me, you know, Devin Mockabee has been 1935 01:28:31,800 --> 01:28:35,120 Speaker 2: a really, really good player and just a solid guy 1936 01:28:35,160 --> 01:28:37,439 Speaker 2: that I think can get you yards and you consult 1937 01:28:37,560 --> 01:28:41,600 Speaker 2: clock with him, and I think that because there's familiarity 1938 01:28:41,640 --> 01:28:44,640 Speaker 2: there maybe that's what you really ride because you know 1939 01:28:44,680 --> 01:28:46,639 Speaker 2: what he can do in the Big Ten. But can 1940 01:28:46,720 --> 01:28:49,639 Speaker 2: you win in today's Big ten with that kind of a. 1941 01:28:49,600 --> 01:28:53,400 Speaker 12: Style going be tough, you know, just like the NFL 1942 01:28:53,520 --> 01:28:56,519 Speaker 12: is going to pass in the college football is the same, 1943 01:28:56,600 --> 01:28:59,920 Speaker 12: and you're gonna need that balance and you're gonna have 1944 01:28:59,920 --> 01:29:02,200 Speaker 12: to have that ability to throw that ball down field. 1945 01:29:02,360 --> 01:29:04,320 Speaker 12: You know, Barry Otam knows that you got to stretch 1946 01:29:04,400 --> 01:29:06,599 Speaker 12: defense and you got to take your shots down field. 1947 01:29:07,320 --> 01:29:11,799 Speaker 12: The receiving cores last year really underperformed, not left speed, 1948 01:29:11,840 --> 01:29:15,080 Speaker 12: and I think Barry thinks they've added enough speed to 1949 01:29:15,240 --> 01:29:18,640 Speaker 12: really make defenses respect the receivers and have to have 1950 01:29:18,760 --> 01:29:21,800 Speaker 12: to maybe not sit on routes as much and play 1951 01:29:21,840 --> 01:29:25,200 Speaker 12: as much his own coverage. So yeah, we'll see if 1952 01:29:25,640 --> 01:29:27,960 Speaker 12: if odin Kin can make that pass, the game, you know, 1953 01:29:28,000 --> 01:29:29,960 Speaker 12: come to life, because like you said, Jake, it's awfully 1954 01:29:29,960 --> 01:29:32,240 Speaker 12: hard to win the ball playing three yards in a 1955 01:29:32,240 --> 01:29:34,960 Speaker 12: cloud of dusk. Barry wants to punch, and he knows 1956 01:29:34,960 --> 01:29:37,000 Speaker 12: he wants to be physical, wants to be tough, but 1957 01:29:37,479 --> 01:29:39,040 Speaker 12: he knows he's gonna have to throw the ball over 1958 01:29:39,040 --> 01:29:42,439 Speaker 12: the top and have those big chunk plays and those 1959 01:29:42,439 --> 01:29:45,519 Speaker 12: big plays that get your touchdowns as well. 1960 01:29:45,640 --> 01:29:47,680 Speaker 1: You know, Odam is a guy. I really like what 1961 01:29:47,760 --> 01:29:48,439 Speaker 1: he did at UNLV. 1962 01:29:48,560 --> 01:29:51,200 Speaker 2: I've got a cousin, Tom, and you know you can 1963 01:29:51,200 --> 01:29:53,120 Speaker 2: write this article, right Jake Querry said that. 1964 01:29:53,200 --> 01:29:54,720 Speaker 1: His cousin says, but but. 1965 01:29:54,680 --> 01:29:56,240 Speaker 2: I've got a cousin that lives out in Vegas and 1966 01:29:56,280 --> 01:29:59,479 Speaker 2: it's actually a huge supporter of ULV football and it's 1967 01:29:59,520 --> 01:30:01,760 Speaker 2: you know, season ticket holder, and he loves him. I mean, 1968 01:30:01,800 --> 01:30:03,559 Speaker 2: he said, look, they are going to be a better 1969 01:30:03,560 --> 01:30:06,080 Speaker 2: football team. It might not be right away, but he 1970 01:30:06,360 --> 01:30:10,040 Speaker 2: liked just the overall aside from scheme, Tom, I think 1971 01:30:11,160 --> 01:30:13,800 Speaker 2: Kurtz Signetty was able to do this with Indiana. I 1972 01:30:13,840 --> 01:30:15,920 Speaker 2: thought what Indiana did last year not to turn a 1973 01:30:15,960 --> 01:30:18,680 Speaker 2: Purdue talking to Indiana, I get the danger there, but 1974 01:30:18,880 --> 01:30:21,720 Speaker 2: to make the parallel, the first year coach Indiana a 1975 01:30:21,800 --> 01:30:25,840 Speaker 2: year ago started winning games because the plays that they 1976 01:30:25,960 --> 01:30:29,280 Speaker 2: used to air, they then were forcing other teams to 1977 01:30:29,320 --> 01:30:31,840 Speaker 2: make errors, and Indiana was taking advantage of it and 1978 01:30:31,880 --> 01:30:35,720 Speaker 2: they were out disciplining people. And I think that if 1979 01:30:35,760 --> 01:30:38,880 Speaker 2: you look at UNLV, that's what his teams when he 1980 01:30:38,960 --> 01:30:42,160 Speaker 2: turned them around. I think that's what my cousin was 1981 01:30:42,160 --> 01:30:43,920 Speaker 2: saying that he really liked about him is they were 1982 01:30:43,960 --> 01:30:45,519 Speaker 2: a disciplined football team. 1983 01:30:45,560 --> 01:30:48,240 Speaker 1: Now, with that said, what. 1984 01:30:48,200 --> 01:30:52,479 Speaker 2: Things or personalities or characteristics about Barry Odom have you 1985 01:30:52,720 --> 01:30:55,960 Speaker 2: noticed that might give some glimpse as to what will 1986 01:30:56,000 --> 01:30:57,639 Speaker 2: carry over to his football team. 1987 01:30:58,120 --> 01:31:02,080 Speaker 12: I think are smart and tough mantra, and uh, you 1988 01:31:02,400 --> 01:31:05,000 Speaker 12: talked about those things. But the discipline. I think that 1989 01:31:05,160 --> 01:31:09,120 Speaker 12: discipline was lacking a lot last year. A lot of penalties, 1990 01:31:09,120 --> 01:31:12,280 Speaker 12: a lot of sloppy playing. Attention to detail and what 1991 01:31:12,439 --> 01:31:14,840 Speaker 12: your cousin saw at UNLB last year, what was a 1992 01:31:14,880 --> 01:31:18,639 Speaker 12: team that was buttoned up right? Uh? The big key 1993 01:31:18,920 --> 01:31:20,880 Speaker 12: not just in football, but in any of these fourt 1994 01:31:21,040 --> 01:31:24,760 Speaker 12: is you know, just don't beat yourself, you know, limit 1995 01:31:24,800 --> 01:31:27,960 Speaker 12: your mistakes and and and force other mistakes and hope 1996 01:31:27,960 --> 01:31:30,519 Speaker 12: and hope that other team makes some airrors that are costly. 1997 01:31:30,640 --> 01:31:33,160 Speaker 12: So I think just the way Bury on and carries 1998 01:31:33,240 --> 01:31:35,720 Speaker 12: himself and the little bits we've seen in practice, it's 1999 01:31:35,760 --> 01:31:39,120 Speaker 12: it's sort of hard for us to tell. But you know, again, 2000 01:31:39,160 --> 01:31:41,000 Speaker 12: a team that's gonna be have have that attention to 2001 01:31:41,080 --> 01:31:44,840 Speaker 12: detail and uh, that's going to be key. I think 2002 01:31:45,000 --> 01:31:46,800 Speaker 12: it's gonna be a tough year. I think Vegas out 2003 01:31:46,840 --> 01:31:49,320 Speaker 12: here as pretty three and a half as far as 2004 01:31:50,040 --> 01:31:53,320 Speaker 12: over under win total, So maybe three and nine, maybe 2005 01:31:53,360 --> 01:31:55,840 Speaker 12: four and eight if you really want to be generous. So, 2006 01:31:56,479 --> 01:31:58,679 Speaker 12: but but more than anything, just to be competitive, don't 2007 01:31:58,680 --> 01:32:02,080 Speaker 12: get embarrassed trying jakeson sixty six to nothing, sixty six 2008 01:32:02,120 --> 01:32:05,439 Speaker 12: to seven, fifty two to six. It often became an 2009 01:32:05,439 --> 01:32:08,080 Speaker 12: abomination on Sally's and became very hard to watch for 2010 01:32:08,120 --> 01:32:09,759 Speaker 12: Purdue fans. 2011 01:32:09,880 --> 01:32:12,160 Speaker 2: You know, the tom I want to go back to 2012 01:32:12,200 --> 01:32:14,880 Speaker 2: something you mentioned earlier, and I know that you know, 2013 01:32:14,960 --> 01:32:19,320 Speaker 2: for all of us, it's it's unchartered territory. But when 2014 01:32:19,320 --> 01:32:22,200 Speaker 2: I look at if you look at a weather map, 2015 01:32:22,240 --> 01:32:25,000 Speaker 2: when there is you know, a hurricane forming out in 2016 01:32:25,040 --> 01:32:27,760 Speaker 2: the Gulf and you can see these little storms that 2017 01:32:27,800 --> 01:32:30,000 Speaker 2: are kind of spiraling off of it, right and it's 2018 01:32:30,040 --> 01:32:33,599 Speaker 2: creating havoc and a number of different islands, it feels 2019 01:32:33,640 --> 01:32:35,599 Speaker 2: a little bit like still that's the era that we're 2020 01:32:35,640 --> 01:32:39,160 Speaker 2: in with Nil and I understand that the NCAA is 2021 01:32:39,200 --> 01:32:41,439 Speaker 2: trying to corral it and they're trying to you know, 2022 01:32:42,520 --> 01:32:45,720 Speaker 2: create sandbags, and everybody is trying to figure out just 2023 01:32:45,800 --> 01:32:48,400 Speaker 2: exactly what to do there. And I don't know that 2024 01:32:48,439 --> 01:32:51,760 Speaker 2: we're there yet, And it feels to me like you 2025 01:32:51,800 --> 01:32:54,400 Speaker 2: have all of these little storms that are spiraling off 2026 01:32:54,439 --> 01:32:58,479 Speaker 2: of these decisions now, of the initial decision of NIL 2027 01:32:58,560 --> 01:33:00,920 Speaker 2: and what it was supposed to be, and then the 2028 01:33:00,960 --> 01:33:04,519 Speaker 2: reality of what it really is, and the transparency of Okay, fine, 2029 01:33:04,600 --> 01:33:07,120 Speaker 2: let's just take all the rules off of it. Where 2030 01:33:07,160 --> 01:33:10,080 Speaker 2: do you think, Tom, we are headed with all of 2031 01:33:10,120 --> 01:33:13,439 Speaker 2: this and when will we begin to know that those 2032 01:33:13,600 --> 01:33:16,639 Speaker 2: little storms have now calmed down and we have one 2033 01:33:16,680 --> 01:33:17,639 Speaker 2: big one to deal with? 2034 01:33:18,640 --> 01:33:19,000 Speaker 1: Well? 2035 01:33:19,040 --> 01:33:21,280 Speaker 12: I think you know right now we have that with 2036 01:33:21,360 --> 01:33:25,760 Speaker 12: the CSC that's using Deloitte to sort of vet all 2037 01:33:25,800 --> 01:33:28,960 Speaker 12: the NIL deals. Anything over six hundred dollars has to 2038 01:33:29,000 --> 01:33:32,200 Speaker 12: be vetted and approved, and that process that has begun. 2039 01:33:32,280 --> 01:33:34,559 Speaker 12: I guess a lot of deals have been rejected. I 2040 01:33:34,560 --> 01:33:37,439 Speaker 12: guess for me it's going to be when people start 2041 01:33:37,439 --> 01:33:40,759 Speaker 12: to challenge some of those rejections and the lawyers start 2042 01:33:40,800 --> 01:33:44,040 Speaker 12: getting involved and the courts start get involved. I guess 2043 01:33:44,040 --> 01:33:46,080 Speaker 12: I still find it hard to believe that anybody can 2044 01:33:46,120 --> 01:33:48,280 Speaker 12: tell anybody else how they want to spend their money. 2045 01:33:48,920 --> 01:33:51,400 Speaker 12: You know, who's to tell me how much I want 2046 01:33:51,439 --> 01:33:54,120 Speaker 12: to pay somebody to cut my grass? If I want 2047 01:33:54,160 --> 01:33:56,200 Speaker 12: to pay ja query one thousand dollars to cut my 2048 01:33:56,280 --> 01:33:59,120 Speaker 12: grass every time I can pay them one thousand dollars. Right, 2049 01:34:00,000 --> 01:34:02,200 Speaker 12: Who was to say what's the going rate for anything? 2050 01:34:02,280 --> 01:34:05,960 Speaker 12: So those types of things I think, and I guess 2051 01:34:06,000 --> 01:34:07,519 Speaker 12: I'll believe it when I see it. I think at 2052 01:34:07,520 --> 01:34:09,479 Speaker 12: some point lawyers are going to get involved, courts can 2053 01:34:09,520 --> 01:34:13,160 Speaker 12: get involved, and you're not going to tell anybody how 2054 01:34:13,160 --> 01:34:16,200 Speaker 12: they can spend their money. So we've just started with 2055 01:34:16,240 --> 01:34:19,240 Speaker 12: this clearing house. We'll see how we go, and maybe 2056 01:34:19,280 --> 01:34:22,160 Speaker 12: another year before we get a real clear picture on 2057 01:34:22,240 --> 01:34:26,800 Speaker 12: how effective it is and how the NIO picture looks moving. 2058 01:34:26,520 --> 01:34:29,840 Speaker 2: Forward, Tom, you ain't sniffing my toro for at least 2059 01:34:29,880 --> 01:34:32,000 Speaker 2: fifteen hundred til we at least get into fifteen hundred, 2060 01:34:32,040 --> 01:34:33,320 Speaker 2: Just so you know, you know what I mean. 2061 01:34:33,680 --> 01:34:36,040 Speaker 12: I mean, I know it's a nice moment. That's why 2062 01:34:36,040 --> 01:34:36,960 Speaker 12: I said, grant. 2063 01:34:38,040 --> 01:34:39,400 Speaker 1: That's why I got to pay it off, right. 2064 01:34:40,439 --> 01:34:43,760 Speaker 2: You know the other thing too, that and I like 2065 01:34:43,920 --> 01:34:46,080 Speaker 2: this aspect of what I'm about to say, But it 2066 01:34:46,120 --> 01:34:49,960 Speaker 2: is unusual. Can you imagine going back fifteen years ago 2067 01:34:50,040 --> 01:34:53,439 Speaker 2: or so and predicting to yourself that you would be 2068 01:34:53,479 --> 01:34:56,760 Speaker 2: at Big ten Media Day in Las Vegas Nevada so 2069 01:34:56,800 --> 01:34:58,559 Speaker 2: that you can get there in time to talk to 2070 01:34:58,600 --> 01:34:59,840 Speaker 2: the head coach for UCLA. 2071 01:35:00,240 --> 01:35:03,760 Speaker 12: Right, I know, it's it's out of the bizarro world. 2072 01:35:03,840 --> 01:35:06,160 Speaker 12: I mentioned that to somebody the other day. I went 2073 01:35:06,200 --> 01:35:09,439 Speaker 12: back in nineteen eighty five to see where the big 2074 01:35:09,479 --> 01:35:11,880 Speaker 12: ten what has to come in the last forty years? Right, 2075 01:35:13,520 --> 01:35:16,360 Speaker 12: ten teams to eighteen teams. Now it's coast to coast 2076 01:35:16,880 --> 01:35:21,280 Speaker 12: media day in Las Vegas. It's just insane. And where 2077 01:35:21,280 --> 01:35:23,680 Speaker 12: are we going? You know that that's the fascinating thing. 2078 01:35:23,720 --> 01:35:26,760 Speaker 12: Where's college football going? And that that's a debate for 2079 01:35:26,800 --> 01:35:30,040 Speaker 12: another day. But you're right. I embraced the change in 2080 01:35:30,800 --> 01:35:33,840 Speaker 12: a bold new world and for new fans certainly opens 2081 01:35:33,840 --> 01:35:36,960 Speaker 12: a bolt in the world again. After that one and 2082 01:35:37,000 --> 01:35:40,040 Speaker 12: eleven abominations. 2083 01:35:39,120 --> 01:35:42,000 Speaker 2: Well, I think about last year. For example, I went 2084 01:35:42,000 --> 01:35:44,200 Speaker 2: to Tom Deanhard as our guest Golden Black. We're talking 2085 01:35:44,240 --> 01:35:46,680 Speaker 2: about Bret football, just a big ten in general. A 2086 01:35:46,760 --> 01:35:51,719 Speaker 2: year ago I went to the game where burdw hosted Oregon. 2087 01:35:52,960 --> 01:35:55,120 Speaker 2: I love Ross a night, Tom, I just do. I 2088 01:35:55,160 --> 01:35:57,960 Speaker 2: think it's a great atmosphere. I love the fans up there. 2089 01:35:57,960 --> 01:35:59,200 Speaker 2: It was it was a lot of fun. We had 2090 01:35:59,200 --> 01:36:00,840 Speaker 2: a lot of fun. By going and go to that game. 2091 01:36:01,720 --> 01:36:03,960 Speaker 2: But it was shortly after that game where I read 2092 01:36:03,960 --> 01:36:07,760 Speaker 2: an article somewhere where Oregon had made comment about the 2093 01:36:07,880 --> 01:36:11,160 Speaker 2: amount of travel they have to do. We think that like, 2094 01:36:11,240 --> 01:36:13,400 Speaker 2: it's just you load sixty guys onto a plane and 2095 01:36:13,439 --> 01:36:15,479 Speaker 2: you fly out play a football game. But when you 2096 01:36:15,560 --> 01:36:19,200 Speaker 2: consider the support staff, the equipment, all of the things 2097 01:36:19,240 --> 01:36:21,400 Speaker 2: that go into it, you start chartering more than just 2098 01:36:21,439 --> 01:36:23,639 Speaker 2: one plane, it's two, three, you know, whatever, it may be, right, 2099 01:36:24,160 --> 01:36:28,439 Speaker 2: and that all of those expenses. I then started reading 2100 01:36:28,520 --> 01:36:30,559 Speaker 2: articles that some of the schools were like, wait a minute, 2101 01:36:30,600 --> 01:36:33,439 Speaker 2: this might have been a bigger financial endeavor than we 2102 01:36:33,600 --> 01:36:36,760 Speaker 2: had anticipated, and that is going to impact some of 2103 01:36:36,800 --> 01:36:41,160 Speaker 2: the certainly less funded sports. Do you think we are 2104 01:36:41,200 --> 01:36:43,120 Speaker 2: still there in the terms of I'm not going to 2105 01:36:43,160 --> 01:36:47,000 Speaker 2: say buy a remorse of Big ten expansion, but is 2106 01:36:47,040 --> 01:36:49,880 Speaker 2: there still a financial aspect of this that is being 2107 01:36:50,160 --> 01:36:50,840 Speaker 2: second guest? 2108 01:36:51,560 --> 01:36:53,920 Speaker 12: This probably still has to be evaluate. Last thing I 2109 01:36:53,920 --> 01:36:58,000 Speaker 12: guess one year in the book Show to Speak. I'm 2110 01:36:58,040 --> 01:37:00,080 Speaker 12: not sure what the books look like those West Go 2111 01:37:00,240 --> 01:37:03,680 Speaker 12: schools in particular, but I think maybe maybe reduce you 2112 01:37:03,800 --> 01:37:06,559 Speaker 12: some alteration when it comes to non revenue sports. Right 2113 01:37:06,600 --> 01:37:09,960 Speaker 12: as far as the travel goes and these are these 2114 01:37:10,000 --> 01:37:14,200 Speaker 12: travels are just limited to the men's basketball and the 2115 01:37:14,320 --> 01:37:17,760 Speaker 12: women's basketball, and you get jobs in football. So I 2116 01:37:17,800 --> 01:37:20,639 Speaker 12: don't know, we'll see where it goes. If the belts 2117 01:37:20,640 --> 01:37:24,800 Speaker 12: have to be tightened. I'm sure that looked at. Had 2118 01:37:24,840 --> 01:37:26,960 Speaker 12: the expenses of that. I've been huge for these schools 2119 01:37:26,960 --> 01:37:29,479 Speaker 12: to fly all of these teams criss crossed in the 2120 01:37:29,520 --> 01:37:34,599 Speaker 12: country multiple times. It's not cheap to stay places, fly place, 2121 01:37:34,640 --> 01:37:35,840 Speaker 12: and you got to feed them too. 2122 01:37:37,439 --> 01:37:39,840 Speaker 2: Ryan Brown is a fascinating story, right, because if I'm 2123 01:37:39,840 --> 01:37:43,880 Speaker 2: not mistaken in this, correct me if I'm wrong, Boilermaker 2124 01:37:43,920 --> 01:37:45,280 Speaker 2: wanted to be a tar heel back to being a 2125 01:37:45,320 --> 01:37:46,240 Speaker 2: boiler Maker, is that right? 2126 01:37:46,560 --> 01:37:47,639 Speaker 1: I understanding this correct? 2127 01:37:48,120 --> 01:37:49,719 Speaker 12: You got it correct as it correct? 2128 01:37:50,400 --> 01:37:50,719 Speaker 1: Okay. 2129 01:37:50,960 --> 01:37:53,320 Speaker 2: And then with that, you know, I guess because you 2130 01:37:53,400 --> 01:37:55,280 Speaker 2: do have a new coach, you get kind of a 2131 01:37:55,280 --> 01:37:57,960 Speaker 2: fresh start. There is the and I'm talking about the 2132 01:37:58,000 --> 01:38:01,320 Speaker 2: quarterback position. By the way, is it his job to lose? 2133 01:38:02,439 --> 01:38:04,000 Speaker 12: I think it is about it that I think he's 2134 01:38:04,040 --> 01:38:06,559 Speaker 12: brought in for a reason, right, Jake. I mean, the 2135 01:38:06,640 --> 01:38:08,879 Speaker 12: quarterbacks that we're here in the spring did not impressed. 2136 01:38:08,960 --> 01:38:12,840 Speaker 12: It's pretty obvious to anybody he watched you know, A. J. 2137 01:38:13,000 --> 01:38:16,719 Speaker 12: Colson's already left. Malachi Singaphant is still here as well. 2138 01:38:17,439 --> 01:38:21,519 Speaker 12: And in that quarterback from Washington State his name Escapes 2139 01:38:21,560 --> 01:38:24,479 Speaker 12: and Evans Chuba's still here too. None of them really 2140 01:38:24,520 --> 01:38:27,120 Speaker 12: impressed at all. And that's why they went out and 2141 01:38:27,120 --> 01:38:29,519 Speaker 12: got you know, Ryan Wild and brought him back so 2142 01:38:29,640 --> 01:38:31,240 Speaker 12: to speak. You know, he left the sword after he 2143 01:38:31,240 --> 01:38:33,720 Speaker 12: would have got here we could spring the football. But 2144 01:38:33,800 --> 01:38:37,040 Speaker 12: Bill Belichick out there in Chapol Hill, he came back 2145 01:38:37,080 --> 01:38:39,519 Speaker 12: because again, I think pretty realized they need to help 2146 01:38:39,520 --> 01:38:41,960 Speaker 12: the quarterback. I think Ryan browns the fifth for what 2147 01:38:42,000 --> 01:38:44,559 Speaker 12: Barry Ontam wants to do. He can throw it and 2148 01:38:44,640 --> 01:38:47,040 Speaker 12: he can run it. He wants a dual threat quarterback, 2149 01:38:47,080 --> 01:38:48,880 Speaker 12: a guy can pull the ball down and run it 2150 01:38:48,920 --> 01:38:50,799 Speaker 12: if need be, a guy who can extend the plays 2151 01:38:50,800 --> 01:38:53,160 Speaker 12: with his feet. And you know what Ryan Brown is 2152 01:38:53,200 --> 01:38:56,000 Speaker 12: the charismatic guys, He's he's a leader, He's a guy 2153 01:38:56,080 --> 01:38:58,840 Speaker 12: on his teammates like a lot. So I do think 2154 01:38:58,880 --> 01:39:01,439 Speaker 12: it's his job to love. Will we see a little 2155 01:39:01,439 --> 01:39:05,479 Speaker 12: bit of Malachi Singleton. I guess we'll see how things 2156 01:39:05,479 --> 01:39:07,840 Speaker 12: go with Ryan Brown, but I think for now, you know, 2157 01:39:07,920 --> 01:39:10,080 Speaker 12: he's the guy that's going to be understanding the QB 2158 01:39:10,160 --> 01:39:13,000 Speaker 12: one if you will, and if they can get Malachi 2159 01:39:13,200 --> 01:39:15,080 Speaker 12: some time, they will just to get him from seasoning. 2160 01:39:15,080 --> 01:39:17,240 Speaker 12: But again, I think it's going to be, you know, 2161 01:39:17,800 --> 01:39:20,679 Speaker 12: do or die with Ryan Brown come started the twenty 2162 01:39:20,840 --> 01:39:21,960 Speaker 12: twenty five season. 2163 01:39:22,880 --> 01:39:24,080 Speaker 1: Last the time before we let you go. 2164 01:39:24,160 --> 01:39:26,439 Speaker 2: Since you're out there and you were watching, you know, 2165 01:39:26,520 --> 01:39:29,400 Speaker 2: just Big ten Media Day in general, with everybody in 2166 01:39:29,479 --> 01:39:34,720 Speaker 2: Las Vegas not talking about Purdue, what were the storylines 2167 01:39:34,760 --> 01:39:36,439 Speaker 2: that jumped out at you? Whether there was you know, 2168 01:39:36,479 --> 01:39:37,920 Speaker 2: a year ago, I guess you would say it was 2169 01:39:37,960 --> 01:39:39,960 Speaker 2: Signetti coming out and that's where he made some of 2170 01:39:40,000 --> 01:39:42,680 Speaker 2: his proclamations that caught everybody on their ear. Did we 2171 01:39:42,720 --> 01:39:45,160 Speaker 2: have any of that this year or what seemed to 2172 01:39:45,200 --> 01:39:49,880 Speaker 2: be even amongst the media contingency, the overwhelming storylines or 2173 01:39:50,000 --> 01:39:52,599 Speaker 2: themes that you'll take away of twenty twenty five Big 2174 01:39:52,680 --> 01:39:53,360 Speaker 2: ten Media. 2175 01:39:53,200 --> 01:39:56,000 Speaker 12: Day, Well, I think it's Kurt Signetti right with the 2176 01:39:56,040 --> 01:39:58,639 Speaker 12: comment about how they're trying to schedule like an SEC school. 2177 01:39:58,960 --> 01:40:00,280 Speaker 1: YEP, I think a. 2178 01:40:00,280 --> 01:40:03,200 Speaker 12: Lot of people plotted that. I think he's accurate, and 2179 01:40:03,760 --> 01:40:05,640 Speaker 12: I think you and l Player with got agenda and 2180 01:40:05,680 --> 01:40:08,760 Speaker 12: he delivered and did a great job delivering it. So 2181 01:40:08,840 --> 01:40:11,840 Speaker 12: that's private minute thing. I would think, I believe that 2182 01:40:11,880 --> 01:40:15,800 Speaker 12: it's really created almost bus thus far through these three days. 2183 01:40:15,720 --> 01:40:18,880 Speaker 12: Is that rant? And you know they dropped Virginia to really, 2184 01:40:18,960 --> 01:40:23,760 Speaker 12: like you said, go to SEC schedule and you can't 2185 01:40:23,800 --> 01:40:24,280 Speaker 12: look at. 2186 01:40:24,120 --> 01:40:28,120 Speaker 2: Me, Tom by my SEC schedule we talked about yesterday. 2187 01:40:28,120 --> 01:40:31,519 Speaker 2: But basically what he means is, listen, if if I've 2188 01:40:31,560 --> 01:40:33,160 Speaker 2: got a load up on what people are going to 2189 01:40:33,240 --> 01:40:36,519 Speaker 2: call cupcakes in the pre conference, I'm not worried about 2190 01:40:36,520 --> 01:40:38,479 Speaker 2: it because I get enough meat of the sandwich at 2191 01:40:38,479 --> 01:40:41,559 Speaker 2: the conference itself, so I might as well get myself 2192 01:40:41,560 --> 01:40:43,800 Speaker 2: to a point where I'm getting wins and then I 2193 01:40:43,880 --> 01:40:46,080 Speaker 2: get my quality wins within the conference. Why in the 2194 01:40:46,080 --> 01:40:47,720 Speaker 2: world do I need to go out of conference to 2195 01:40:47,720 --> 01:40:50,080 Speaker 2: collect quality wins when I've got to be You're the 2196 01:40:50,080 --> 01:40:52,439 Speaker 2: case of Purdue USC and Notre Dame in Illinois and 2197 01:40:52,439 --> 01:40:54,720 Speaker 2: Indiana and Ohio State Michigan on the schedule, right, I 2198 01:40:54,760 --> 01:41:00,160 Speaker 2: mean in Washington. That basically paraphrases what he said, right exactly. 2199 01:40:59,640 --> 01:41:03,120 Speaker 12: Why Well said that, That's exactly what Kurt said. And 2200 01:41:03,880 --> 01:41:05,760 Speaker 12: they don't remember who you beat the name, they remember 2201 01:41:05,800 --> 01:41:09,479 Speaker 12: how many wins you had right, and you look back 2202 01:41:09,479 --> 01:41:11,559 Speaker 12: at all the way you talk about great teams, joways talking 2203 01:41:11,560 --> 01:41:13,280 Speaker 12: about anyway twelve and oh they want eleven and one. 2204 01:41:13,640 --> 01:41:16,519 Speaker 12: You'll go back and dissect who they beat. So you're right, 2205 01:41:16,600 --> 01:41:19,839 Speaker 12: you have plenty of opportunity for impressive wins within conference play. 2206 01:41:20,200 --> 01:41:22,920 Speaker 12: Why bang your head against the wall and play rigorous 2207 01:41:22,960 --> 01:41:24,120 Speaker 12: non conference schedule too? 2208 01:41:24,720 --> 01:41:27,400 Speaker 2: And you think that was a sentiment that it the 2209 01:41:27,439 --> 01:41:29,320 Speaker 2: reason I find that, And I'm glad I asked Tom 2210 01:41:29,640 --> 01:41:33,439 Speaker 2: because I would have been under the assumption that other 2211 01:41:33,560 --> 01:41:35,920 Speaker 2: Big Ten coaches would have looked at Signetti and saying 2212 01:41:35,920 --> 01:41:37,960 Speaker 2: that and been like, here goes Kurt Signetti again, like 2213 01:41:38,000 --> 01:41:41,400 Speaker 2: come on, man, But but you believe that Actually what 2214 01:41:41,439 --> 01:41:45,080 Speaker 2: he was saying this time was kind of saying out loud, 2215 01:41:45,120 --> 01:41:47,360 Speaker 2: but everybody's thinking, is that a fair way of saying it? 2216 01:41:47,800 --> 01:41:47,920 Speaker 9: Oh? 2217 01:41:48,000 --> 01:41:50,120 Speaker 12: Yeah, the big can circles without a doubt. I think 2218 01:41:50,160 --> 01:41:52,519 Speaker 12: they want the SEC. They had that extra conference game 2219 01:41:53,240 --> 01:41:56,519 Speaker 12: just so there's more similarities between these two conferences and 2220 01:41:56,600 --> 01:41:59,320 Speaker 12: how there's seasons that are constructing. So yeah, I think 2221 01:41:59,360 --> 01:42:01,320 Speaker 12: if you got this coaches in the room privately, they 2222 01:42:01,320 --> 01:42:04,080 Speaker 12: always say, yeah, we we love what Kurtzy mean. 2223 01:42:04,160 --> 01:42:04,759 Speaker 1: He said. 2224 01:42:06,120 --> 01:42:08,920 Speaker 2: Tom, I appreciate the time. We look forward to talking 2225 01:42:08,960 --> 01:42:11,439 Speaker 2: to you. Everything getting underway for Purdue.

And obviously that comes within the window of 2251 01:43:17,680 --> 01:43:21,200 Speaker 2: time that the players are done with practice or getting 2252 01:43:21,240 --> 01:43:24,439 Speaker 2: ready for something else that they may have to do here, 2253 01:43:24,960 --> 01:43:27,559 Speaker 2: film sessions, et cetera. So you kind of work on 2254 01:43:27,560 --> 01:43:32,000 Speaker 2: the Colts schedule understandably for today. That schedule meant just 2255 01:43:32,080 --> 01:43:34,720 Speaker 2: before we went on the air, So I conducted an 2256 01:43:34,760 --> 01:43:38,240 Speaker 2: interview with Bernard Yman, who is in his fourth year. 2257 01:43:38,320 --> 01:43:40,360 Speaker 2: He is entering year number four as a left tackle 2258 01:43:40,360 --> 01:43:42,920 Speaker 2: for the Colts and his story is a fascinating one. 2259 01:43:42,960 --> 01:43:46,320 Speaker 2: He grew up in Vienna, Austria. He began playing football 2260 01:43:46,400 --> 01:43:49,760 Speaker 2: as a young team when he did basically like an 2261 01:43:49,760 --> 01:43:53,920 Speaker 2: American Football introduction type camp, fell in love with the game, 2262 01:43:54,000 --> 01:43:58,360 Speaker 2: started playing it, moved to or went to Central Michigan 2263 01:43:58,360 --> 01:44:01,160 Speaker 2: because he is, you know, six seven and three, got 2264 01:44:01,160 --> 01:44:03,720 Speaker 2: an opportunity to play football at Central Michigan at the 2265 01:44:03,760 --> 01:44:07,360 Speaker 2: tight end position. After his second year of college football 2266 01:44:07,400 --> 01:44:10,880 Speaker 2: at Central Michigan in the MAC, he changed switched to 2267 01:44:10,960 --> 01:44:15,040 Speaker 2: offensive linemen, and the Colts drafted him kind of on 2268 01:44:15,960 --> 01:44:17,840 Speaker 2: a bit of blind faith, on the fact that he 2269 01:44:17,840 --> 01:44:21,480 Speaker 2: could develop into their left tackle to replace Anthony Costanzo 2270 01:44:21,960 --> 01:44:25,040 Speaker 2: who had retired, and in fact Ryman has done that. 2271 01:44:25,160 --> 01:44:28,880 Speaker 2: His first outing was not a good one. He struggled early, 2272 01:44:29,680 --> 01:44:33,360 Speaker 2: but he has turned into and developed into a very 2273 01:44:33,439 --> 01:44:36,760 Speaker 2: good player and a solid left tackle and you would 2274 01:44:36,800 --> 01:44:38,960 Speaker 2: say probably in the upper third of left tackles in 2275 01:44:39,000 --> 01:44:41,680 Speaker 2: the National Football League. Now with that, he is in 2276 01:44:41,760 --> 01:44:44,320 Speaker 2: a contract year, so at the end of the year 2277 01:44:44,360 --> 01:44:46,439 Speaker 2: he becomes if he so chooses, a guy that could 2278 01:44:46,479 --> 01:44:48,559 Speaker 2: talk to other teams, it becomes a free agent, can 2279 01:44:48,640 --> 01:44:50,800 Speaker 2: go out there and see what is out there. There 2280 01:44:50,800 --> 01:44:52,519 Speaker 2: are a number of ways the Colts can avoid that 2281 01:44:52,560 --> 01:44:56,639 Speaker 2: franchise tag being won, et cetera. But a year ago 2282 01:44:56,920 --> 01:44:59,640 Speaker 2: we learned this from Chris Ballard. Chris Ballard had a 2283 01:44:59,720 --> 01:45:02,240 Speaker 2: year ago Ryan Kelly that was in a contract situation, 2284 01:45:02,640 --> 01:45:04,920 Speaker 2: and Chris Ballard made it very clear at the start 2285 01:45:04,960 --> 01:45:07,599 Speaker 2: of camp. I remember Ryan Kelly showing up for camp 2286 01:45:07,640 --> 01:45:10,439 Speaker 2: and saying when he showed up, yeah, the Colts made 2287 01:45:10,479 --> 01:45:12,640 Speaker 2: it clear to me that they are not interested in 2288 01:45:12,680 --> 01:45:14,840 Speaker 2: resigning me right now, and they want to have that 2289 01:45:14,920 --> 01:45:18,839 Speaker 2: conversation at the end of the year, and that became, 2290 01:45:19,000 --> 01:45:21,280 Speaker 2: you know, obviously a talking point. And then we became 2291 01:45:21,680 --> 01:45:23,519 Speaker 2: aware of the fact that the Colts decided to go 2292 01:45:23,520 --> 01:45:26,559 Speaker 2: in another direction and Tanner Bordolini is the guy that 2293 01:45:26,640 --> 01:45:28,400 Speaker 2: it looks like is going to be the starting center 2294 01:45:28,439 --> 01:45:29,400 Speaker 2: should he stay healthy. 2295 01:45:29,720 --> 01:45:30,799 Speaker 1: That's who has taken. 2296 01:45:30,600 --> 01:45:34,720 Speaker 2: The reps in practices so far for the Colts. So 2297 01:45:34,800 --> 01:45:37,800 Speaker 2: with all of that said, Bernard Ryman enters into a 2298 01:45:37,880 --> 01:45:41,639 Speaker 2: year where most projections say that he is going to 2299 01:45:41,760 --> 01:45:45,120 Speaker 2: or has earned the right to ask for some twenty 2300 01:45:45,120 --> 01:45:47,400 Speaker 2: to twenty one million dollars a year as a left tackle. 2301 01:45:47,479 --> 01:45:50,639 Speaker 2: Left tackles do not grow on trees. Sure everybody has one, 2302 01:45:50,680 --> 01:45:53,240 Speaker 2: doesn't mean everybody has a good one, and the Colts, 2303 01:45:53,360 --> 01:45:55,040 Speaker 2: it looks like, have a good one and one that 2304 01:45:55,240 --> 01:45:57,200 Speaker 2: is going to be here for quite some time to 2305 01:45:57,280 --> 01:46:00,719 Speaker 2: protect whatever quarterback they may go with, whether it's Dany Richardson, 2306 01:46:00,800 --> 01:46:05,920 Speaker 2: Daniel Jones, whether they completely start anew in that contract situation. 2307 01:46:06,120 --> 01:46:09,160 Speaker 2: Earlier today, just before we went on the air, I 2308 01:46:09,280 --> 01:46:12,559 Speaker 2: was interviewing Bernard Ryman for this show. I asked him 2309 01:46:12,600 --> 01:46:17,840 Speaker 2: specifically about his contract status, totally expecting and preparing for 2310 01:46:18,320 --> 01:46:21,280 Speaker 2: the Status Co answer. The Status Co answer, of course, 2311 01:46:21,320 --> 01:46:24,320 Speaker 2: would be, well, you know, those things will play out 2312 01:46:24,360 --> 01:46:27,800 Speaker 2: when they do. And what he said, I thought to myself, 2313 01:46:28,800 --> 01:46:32,479 Speaker 2: I think that's newsworthy, I think, and I've done this 2314 01:46:32,520 --> 01:46:34,280 Speaker 2: for a while, so I can tell sometimes when a 2315 01:46:34,320 --> 01:46:36,639 Speaker 2: guy says something and I think to myself, I need 2316 01:46:36,680 --> 01:46:39,120 Speaker 2: to earmark that, I need to benchmark that. I think 2317 01:46:39,280 --> 01:46:43,680 Speaker 2: that is something that is going to create and generate conversation. 2318 01:46:43,880 --> 01:46:46,760 Speaker 2: And I was surprised with his answer, and I think 2319 01:46:46,880 --> 01:46:50,400 Speaker 2: others were surprised by his answer, and we will play 2320 01:46:50,479 --> 01:46:53,719 Speaker 2: for you his answer when we come back to Grand 2321 01:46:53,720 --> 01:46:55,960 Speaker 2: Park and Westfield Colts Camp day number two here on 2322 01:46:56,000 --> 01:47:02,280 Speaker 2: the fan. It is hard to think of somebody from 2323 01:47:02,439 --> 01:47:07,000 Speaker 2: a sports standpoint. I mean, obviously Michael Jordan, you know 2324 01:47:07,040 --> 01:47:10,280 Speaker 2: they're a number, but if you look at people who 2325 01:47:10,320 --> 01:47:13,000 Speaker 2: were able to come seemingly almost out of nowhere. 2326 01:47:13,360 --> 01:47:15,040 Speaker 1: And we're going to get to the Bernard Ryman stuff 2327 01:47:15,040 --> 01:47:15,840 Speaker 1: here in just a second. 2328 01:47:15,880 --> 01:47:19,160 Speaker 2: But at the time that I was interviewing Bernard Ryman, 2329 01:47:19,200 --> 01:47:21,400 Speaker 2: it was very shortly after that where I learned of 2330 01:47:21,439 --> 01:47:25,400 Speaker 2: the passing of Hulk Hogan. And admittedly I was not 2331 01:47:25,640 --> 01:47:28,559 Speaker 2: a huge fan of professional wrestling when I was a kid. 2332 01:47:28,560 --> 01:47:33,920 Speaker 2: Now that you know, it's interesting when when pro wrestling 2333 01:47:34,120 --> 01:47:36,400 Speaker 2: first kind of hit the scene, at least in the 2334 01:47:36,400 --> 01:47:38,960 Speaker 2: world that I lived in, meaning the era that I 2335 01:47:39,000 --> 01:47:41,519 Speaker 2: lived in. I think for a lot of people, their 2336 01:47:41,560 --> 01:47:46,320 Speaker 2: introduction to professional wrestling was strictly Georgia Championship Wrestling, which 2337 01:47:46,360 --> 01:47:51,439 Speaker 2: aired on Superstation TBS, and back before you had all 2338 01:47:51,520 --> 01:47:54,320 Speaker 2: kinds of cable options, you had Superstation TBS which would 2339 01:47:54,360 --> 01:47:58,400 Speaker 2: air Georgia Championship Wrestling and the Atlanta Braves, and then 2340 01:47:59,000 --> 01:48:03,719 Speaker 2: Starcade and a couple of other bad game shows. Starcade 2341 01:48:03,800 --> 01:48:05,759 Speaker 2: was pretty awesome. It was so bad. It was based 2342 01:48:05,800 --> 01:48:08,800 Speaker 2: on people that would come and play video games against 2343 01:48:08,840 --> 01:48:10,800 Speaker 2: one another. I'll never forget the time I was watching it. 2344 01:48:10,800 --> 01:48:13,080 Speaker 2: There was like a nine year old kid. They were 2345 01:48:13,080 --> 01:48:15,559 Speaker 2: playing Cubert, I think, and the guy that the nine 2346 01:48:15,640 --> 01:48:17,479 Speaker 2: year old was going up against was like forty two 2347 01:48:17,560 --> 01:48:22,280 Speaker 2: years old. Like, what are we watching here? But Superstation 2348 01:48:22,400 --> 01:48:24,360 Speaker 2: TBS with kids Beat with Audo Lye and all that. 2349 01:48:24,360 --> 01:48:27,519 Speaker 2: You would see Georgia Championship Wrestling. And then around that time, 2350 01:48:28,080 --> 01:48:32,559 Speaker 2: Rocky three came out, and in Rocky three, Rocky Balboa 2351 01:48:32,640 --> 01:48:38,280 Speaker 2: fictionally goes up for a fundraising match against Thunderlips as 2352 01:48:38,320 --> 01:48:41,240 Speaker 2: he was known, and I just remember being like, who 2353 01:48:41,439 --> 01:48:44,360 Speaker 2: is this guy? You know, he had obviously the twenty 2354 01:48:44,360 --> 01:48:47,160 Speaker 2: four inch python arms and you know, ripped the shirt 2355 01:48:47,200 --> 01:48:50,200 Speaker 2: and the whole deal. And that was the introduction to 2356 01:48:50,479 --> 01:48:52,920 Speaker 2: many of us in the world of the character that 2357 01:48:52,960 --> 01:48:55,599 Speaker 2: would become known as hul Kogan. And then of course 2358 01:48:55,760 --> 01:48:59,679 Speaker 2: in World Championship Wrestling I believe then it was known 2359 01:48:59,720 --> 01:49:03,960 Speaker 2: and obviously ww F and the WWE and everything that 2360 01:49:04,000 --> 01:49:06,439 Speaker 2: you know it today. But when he won the belt 2361 01:49:06,479 --> 01:49:08,840 Speaker 2: against the Iron Chic, I don't remember that as well. 2362 01:49:08,960 --> 01:49:13,679 Speaker 2: I just know that Hulk Hogan himself became a pop 2363 01:49:13,720 --> 01:49:17,120 Speaker 2: cultural icon and somebody that you did not have to, 2364 01:49:17,280 --> 01:49:20,280 Speaker 2: like myself, be a fan of wrestling to know exactly 2365 01:49:20,320 --> 01:49:23,519 Speaker 2: who and what he was. Then you went into the 2366 01:49:23,560 --> 01:49:26,519 Speaker 2: reality show with about his daughter and his son, and 2367 01:49:26,600 --> 01:49:29,400 Speaker 2: you got a look at him, not unlike Ozzie Osbourne, 2368 01:49:29,680 --> 01:49:32,840 Speaker 2: very similar to Ozzy Osbourne in the fact that the 2369 01:49:33,040 --> 01:49:36,120 Speaker 2: reality show gave you more a glimpse of the person 2370 01:49:36,600 --> 01:49:40,479 Speaker 2: versus the character that they were portraying. Obviously, Hulk Hogan 2371 01:49:40,520 --> 01:49:44,840 Speaker 2: then lately, in his later years became a very you know, 2372 01:49:44,960 --> 01:49:48,240 Speaker 2: central figure within politics and et cetera. But Hulk Hogan 2373 01:49:48,320 --> 01:49:51,760 Speaker 2: passing away of cardiac arrest. It was announced when the 2374 01:49:52,000 --> 01:49:55,439 Speaker 2: I believe, I would say Panela's county, but basically Tampa 2375 01:49:55,479 --> 01:49:59,160 Speaker 2: area police were brought to his home for an assistance 2376 01:49:59,240 --> 01:50:02,120 Speaker 2: call and it was cardiac arrest that it was discovered 2377 01:50:02,160 --> 01:50:03,320 Speaker 2: for Hulk Hogan. 2378 01:50:03,400 --> 01:50:05,479 Speaker 1: The cause of death as it's being reported. 2379 01:50:06,200 --> 01:50:09,280 Speaker 2: Also, Chuck Mangioni we mentioned passing away his family announcing 2380 01:50:09,320 --> 01:50:12,920 Speaker 2: that today from he passed away two days ago. But 2381 01:50:13,000 --> 01:50:15,679 Speaker 2: let's get back into the Colts conversation with Bernard Ryman. 2382 01:50:16,080 --> 01:50:18,479 Speaker 2: So Bernard Ryman, who has been a really good player, 2383 01:50:18,520 --> 01:50:21,720 Speaker 2: and again I think it is just one of those positions, 2384 01:50:22,439 --> 01:50:26,559 Speaker 2: and I'm talking about the left tackle position that is 2385 01:50:26,680 --> 01:50:30,360 Speaker 2: kind of a thankless position because oftentimes you don't notice 2386 01:50:30,360 --> 01:50:33,759 Speaker 2: the left tackle until you need to notice the left tackle, 2387 01:50:33,960 --> 01:50:36,320 Speaker 2: and you don't address left tackle until you need to 2388 01:50:36,320 --> 01:50:39,720 Speaker 2: address left tackle. And this franchise, on this market and 2389 01:50:39,760 --> 01:50:43,840 Speaker 2: this media group, myself included, have probably been spoiled by 2390 01:50:43,840 --> 01:50:48,759 Speaker 2: the left tackle position. Because Tarak Glenn was really, really good, 2391 01:50:48,920 --> 01:50:52,559 Speaker 2: I mean really good. At no point in Tarak Glenn's 2392 01:50:52,560 --> 01:50:55,920 Speaker 2: playing career for the Colts was he anything outside of 2393 01:50:55,960 --> 01:50:59,800 Speaker 2: say a top probably five to ten left tackle. I 2394 01:51:00,160 --> 01:51:03,439 Speaker 2: know that the running joke in Indianapolis became by a 2395 01:51:03,479 --> 01:51:06,839 Speaker 2: lot of people. Oh, another false start for Tarak Glenn. 2396 01:51:07,360 --> 01:51:10,000 Speaker 2: But do you realize the fleet of foot nature you 2397 01:51:10,080 --> 01:51:13,479 Speaker 2: need to have to get false starts when you are 2398 01:51:13,520 --> 01:51:17,040 Speaker 2: that size of man, which Tarak Glenn is and was. 2399 01:51:17,760 --> 01:51:21,800 Speaker 2: And when Tarak Glenn surprisingly retired with a year left 2400 01:51:21,800 --> 01:51:25,400 Speaker 2: on his deal, if I'm not mistaken, I remember the 2401 01:51:25,400 --> 01:51:29,880 Speaker 2: Colts drafting Anthony Costanzo, and Costanzo when he first got 2402 01:51:29,920 --> 01:51:34,680 Speaker 2: here was just kind of this big goofy, you know, 2403 01:51:34,720 --> 01:51:39,360 Speaker 2: he had his hair, was shaved head, et cetera. And 2404 01:51:40,040 --> 01:51:44,479 Speaker 2: Anthony Costanzo worked tirelessly at perfecting being a left tackle 2405 01:51:45,040 --> 01:51:48,920 Speaker 2: and he became a obviously an elite level left tackle. 2406 01:51:49,280 --> 01:51:52,160 Speaker 2: And then you get Bernard Ryman, who, as I talked about, 2407 01:51:52,200 --> 01:51:54,479 Speaker 2: was somebody that had to learn the position in college, 2408 01:51:55,479 --> 01:51:57,320 Speaker 2: got drafted. There was a little bit of a wing 2409 01:51:57,360 --> 01:51:58,880 Speaker 2: and a prayer I think by the Colts, but they 2410 01:51:59,080 --> 01:52:01,599 Speaker 2: fell in love with this side. And credit to Chris Ballard. 2411 01:52:02,280 --> 01:52:05,320 Speaker 2: Credit Chris Ballard because when he took Bernard Ryman, there 2412 01:52:05,320 --> 01:52:06,920 Speaker 2: were a lot of people that wondered whether or not 2413 01:52:06,960 --> 01:52:10,719 Speaker 2: that was a reach pick, and he clearly saw something 2414 01:52:10,760 --> 01:52:13,240 Speaker 2: in him that now whoever would have guessed here heading 2415 01:52:13,240 --> 01:52:16,240 Speaker 2: into year number four that Bernard Ryman and his contractual 2416 01:52:16,280 --> 01:52:19,840 Speaker 2: status would be a storyline at Colts Camp. But I 2417 01:52:19,880 --> 01:52:22,200 Speaker 2: think it is a storyline, and it may be more 2418 01:52:22,240 --> 01:52:24,960 Speaker 2: a storyline because when I talked to him this morning 2419 01:52:25,680 --> 01:52:27,720 Speaker 2: and he sat down, I thought, Okay, I'm going to 2420 01:52:27,760 --> 01:52:30,280 Speaker 2: ask him about his contract, and then I went back 2421 01:52:30,280 --> 01:52:33,480 Speaker 2: to what I was talking about yesterday, which is sometimes 2422 01:52:33,520 --> 01:52:36,400 Speaker 2: we just assume a player wants to be here, and 2423 01:52:36,439 --> 01:52:38,200 Speaker 2: it's like, well, obviously he's gonna want to resign. 2424 01:52:38,040 --> 01:52:38,559 Speaker 1: Here, and you need to think. 2425 01:52:38,600 --> 01:52:40,240 Speaker 2: Wait a minute, though, But I mean, just because a 2426 01:52:40,240 --> 01:52:42,599 Speaker 2: guy's played here. If you look at Ryman, he's played 2427 01:52:42,640 --> 01:52:45,000 Speaker 2: for different head coaches, he's played for with different quarterbacks, 2428 01:52:45,040 --> 01:52:47,479 Speaker 2: he's played with different centers. You know, he may say, 2429 01:52:47,479 --> 01:52:49,800 Speaker 2: you know what, I want stability somewhere. I want to 2430 01:52:49,840 --> 01:52:53,120 Speaker 2: go compete somewhere. So I did ask him the question 2431 01:52:53,200 --> 01:52:55,080 Speaker 2: of is this where you want to be? And I 2432 01:52:55,080 --> 01:52:58,599 Speaker 2: think he misunderstood that, but then he said something later 2433 01:52:58,680 --> 01:53:01,200 Speaker 2: that there was no misunderstanding. Here's how the first part 2434 01:53:01,240 --> 01:53:02,400 Speaker 2: of it sounded with Bernard Ryman. 2435 01:53:02,720 --> 01:53:07,240 Speaker 8: Oh absolutely, yes, yes, I mean, obviously we love it here, 2436 01:53:07,760 --> 01:53:11,040 Speaker 8: would love to get things done, but I'm not involved 2437 01:53:11,040 --> 01:53:11,240 Speaker 8: in this. 2438 01:53:11,280 --> 01:53:13,400 Speaker 6: Obviously, you have an agent that takes care of this. 2439 01:53:14,280 --> 01:53:17,080 Speaker 8: From my understanding, there's they aren't on the same page 2440 01:53:17,680 --> 01:53:21,400 Speaker 8: about things. So you say they're not on the same 2441 01:53:21,439 --> 01:53:24,120 Speaker 8: page as of right now and not exactly the same 2442 01:53:24,120 --> 01:53:26,639 Speaker 8: page right now. So but I mean, as I said, 2443 01:53:26,640 --> 01:53:28,640 Speaker 8: for me as a football player, I'm preparing for the 2444 01:53:28,680 --> 01:53:29,880 Speaker 8: season because that's what matters. 2445 01:53:30,760 --> 01:53:33,680 Speaker 2: Okay now, So I began that by saying, is this 2446 01:53:33,720 --> 01:53:35,559 Speaker 2: where you want to be? And he said Initially he 2447 01:53:35,600 --> 01:53:38,080 Speaker 2: said no, And that's where I asked for the clarification. 2448 01:53:38,080 --> 01:53:39,680 Speaker 2: I'm like, no, no, no, I don't mean he said no 2449 01:53:39,720 --> 01:53:41,280 Speaker 2: because I want to be in the super Bowl. And 2450 01:53:41,320 --> 01:53:42,920 Speaker 2: I said no, no, I don't mean like where you are 2451 01:53:42,960 --> 01:53:45,680 Speaker 2: as a team production wise, I mean, is this the 2452 01:53:45,800 --> 01:53:47,320 Speaker 2: franchise you want to be with? And that was the 2453 01:53:47,360 --> 01:53:49,640 Speaker 2: answer you just heard. Then when he said we are 2454 01:53:49,640 --> 01:53:52,920 Speaker 2: not on the same page, I wanted him to clarify 2455 01:53:53,040 --> 01:53:56,240 Speaker 2: by that, did he mean, for example, in the situation 2456 01:53:56,320 --> 01:53:59,080 Speaker 2: with Ryan Kelly, where not on the same page like 2457 01:53:59,120 --> 01:54:01,280 Speaker 2: the Colts just didn't want to have that discussion yet 2458 01:54:01,880 --> 01:54:04,880 Speaker 2: or not on the same page in terms of the 2459 01:54:05,040 --> 01:54:06,880 Speaker 2: perceived value, here's Bernard Ryman. 2460 01:54:07,080 --> 01:54:10,880 Speaker 8: From my understanding is that the numbers don't always quite 2461 01:54:10,880 --> 01:54:13,679 Speaker 8: add up yet. You know, the way they might value 2462 01:54:13,720 --> 01:54:18,240 Speaker 8: a position differently than my team thinks it is. 2463 01:54:18,680 --> 01:54:19,760 Speaker 6: You know, we're working. 2464 01:54:22,640 --> 01:54:26,200 Speaker 2: The value of my position from where the team thinks 2465 01:54:26,240 --> 01:54:28,640 Speaker 2: it is, from where I and I'm paraphrasing where he 2466 01:54:28,680 --> 01:54:34,400 Speaker 2: thinks it is. Now this is to me. I noticed 2467 01:54:34,400 --> 01:54:38,160 Speaker 2: that he said the numbers are not there yet. Maybe 2468 01:54:38,200 --> 01:54:41,800 Speaker 2: that means that Bernard Ryman is just in the exploratory 2469 01:54:41,880 --> 01:54:46,040 Speaker 2: phase of this discussion. Maybe it means that Bernard Ryman's 2470 01:54:46,040 --> 01:54:47,840 Speaker 2: agent has said it's fine. 2471 01:54:48,440 --> 01:54:49,720 Speaker 1: They've already assured me it'll be. 2472 01:54:49,640 --> 01:54:52,000 Speaker 2: Fine, And one would assume that it's going to be 2473 01:54:52,040 --> 01:54:58,120 Speaker 2: fine because there is no waiting in the wings replacement 2474 01:54:58,200 --> 01:55:01,040 Speaker 2: for Bernard Ryman. That's a position that theoretically the Colts 2475 01:55:01,120 --> 01:55:03,680 Speaker 2: know they've got taken care of for a while and 2476 01:55:03,760 --> 01:55:05,120 Speaker 2: they don't have to look elsewhere. 2477 01:55:05,160 --> 01:55:06,480 Speaker 1: But you've got to get them locked in. 2478 01:55:07,200 --> 01:55:09,920 Speaker 2: Then you consider the money they have already invested to 2479 01:55:10,560 --> 01:55:13,960 Speaker 2: Quentin Nelson, and you wonder if in fact they are 2480 01:55:14,040 --> 01:55:15,960 Speaker 2: there's a little bit of a Miles Turner factor there. 2481 01:55:16,040 --> 01:55:19,840 Speaker 2: Right of some other teammate come in and Bernard Ryman 2482 01:55:20,000 --> 01:55:21,400 Speaker 2: may say, Okay, I'm good. 2483 01:55:21,920 --> 01:55:23,040 Speaker 1: You waited too long. 2484 01:55:24,320 --> 01:55:29,320 Speaker 2: From the Colts standpoint, so I think, I think this 2485 01:55:29,440 --> 01:55:31,120 Speaker 2: is still something that they're. 2486 01:55:30,880 --> 01:55:31,680 Speaker 1: Going to work out. 2487 01:55:31,720 --> 01:55:38,840 Speaker 2: However, however, when he says yet, it's something where they're 2488 01:55:38,880 --> 01:55:41,960 Speaker 2: not on the same page yet, that's Bernard Ryman, I think, 2489 01:55:42,000 --> 01:55:44,040 Speaker 2: assuming that they're going to be on the same page. 2490 01:55:44,400 --> 01:55:47,760 Speaker 2: But it also is really good gamesmanship from Bernard Ryman there, 2491 01:55:49,120 --> 01:55:51,760 Speaker 2: because right there, Bernard Ryman just planted the seed of 2492 01:55:51,840 --> 01:55:55,400 Speaker 2: they may not find me as valuable as what my 2493 01:55:55,480 --> 01:55:59,040 Speaker 2: position is. And if you start to plant that seed, 2494 01:56:00,120 --> 01:56:02,720 Speaker 2: then what you're doing is you are potentially sending out 2495 01:56:03,200 --> 01:56:06,120 Speaker 2: the test balloon. You're sending out the flair to the 2496 01:56:06,160 --> 01:56:08,800 Speaker 2: Atlanta Falcons, the Tampa Bay Bucks, to New Orleans Saints, 2497 01:56:08,880 --> 01:56:11,760 Speaker 2: the LA Chargers, the Denver Broncos, the Seattle Seahawks, the 2498 01:56:11,760 --> 01:56:14,680 Speaker 2: Minnesota Vikings, the New York Jets, one of those franchises. 2499 01:56:14,840 --> 01:56:17,200 Speaker 2: You're sending it out there to them where they're saying, 2500 01:56:17,560 --> 01:56:19,320 Speaker 2: get his agent on the phone, because we know his 2501 01:56:19,440 --> 01:56:22,440 Speaker 2: value and let's make him feel valued. 2502 01:56:22,520 --> 01:56:22,800 Speaker 1: Here. 2503 01:56:24,080 --> 01:56:27,280 Speaker 2: I think he feels valued here. I think he likes 2504 01:56:27,320 --> 01:56:29,960 Speaker 2: it here. I think he knows he's going to be 2505 01:56:30,000 --> 01:56:34,080 Speaker 2: long term here. But it's in his best interest in 2506 01:56:34,200 --> 01:56:37,960 Speaker 2: making it known that he doesn't feel that way right now. 2507 01:56:39,520 --> 01:56:42,840 Speaker 2: Show me with the money how much you value me? 2508 01:56:43,480 --> 01:56:47,240 Speaker 2: And until then I don't feel valued. I think it's smart, 2509 01:56:47,360 --> 01:56:48,720 Speaker 2: but I think it's something to keep an eye on 2510 01:56:48,760 --> 01:56:52,120 Speaker 2: because he is a very very important piece. And in addition, 2511 01:56:52,280 --> 01:56:54,440 Speaker 2: I think personally and it's not my job to sit 2512 01:56:54,480 --> 01:56:56,760 Speaker 2: here and tell Chris Ballard how to do his but. 2513 01:56:58,800 --> 01:57:00,200 Speaker 1: We do do that from time to time. 2514 01:57:00,040 --> 01:57:02,920 Speaker 2: I think it's smart for them to lock him in 2515 01:57:02,960 --> 01:57:06,480 Speaker 2: now because the more Bernard Ryman plays one of two 2516 01:57:06,520 --> 01:57:09,800 Speaker 2: things from here forward. For this season, in terms of 2517 01:57:09,840 --> 01:57:12,600 Speaker 2: the value of Bernard Ryman, it goes one of two ways. 2518 01:57:12,920 --> 01:57:17,640 Speaker 2: One is he plays, continues to play well and increases 2519 01:57:17,680 --> 01:57:21,400 Speaker 2: his price tag no win for the Colts there, or 2520 01:57:21,440 --> 01:57:25,800 Speaker 2: the other is he plays gets hurt. Sure you don't 2521 01:57:25,800 --> 01:57:28,320 Speaker 2: have him locked in, but now you're right back to 2522 01:57:28,360 --> 01:57:31,960 Speaker 2: square one. Anyway, I think it's in their best interest 2523 01:57:32,000 --> 01:57:34,120 Speaker 2: to get it done as soon as they can, and 2524 01:57:34,160 --> 01:57:36,240 Speaker 2: I think it's in Bernard Ryman's best interest to do 2525 01:57:36,320 --> 01:57:40,240 Speaker 2: exactly what he did, and that is plant that little 2526 01:57:40,240 --> 01:57:41,840 Speaker 2: seed to up that price. 2527 01:57:42,440 --> 01:57:44,160 Speaker 1: We'll come back, we'll put a tie on all of it. 2528 01:57:44,200 --> 01:57:46,280 Speaker 2: We'll hand it off to John next Colts Camp day 2529 01:57:46,360 --> 01:57:51,640 Speaker 2: number two. Here Aquarying Company on the fan. Well, I 2530 01:57:51,640 --> 01:57:55,240 Speaker 2: guess that means I'm good until about mid August. This 2531 01:57:55,280 --> 01:57:58,720 Speaker 2: will be stuck in the head. Mo from Northwest Ohio 2532 01:57:59,440 --> 01:58:01,080 Speaker 2: sent me a bay I said yesterday, said he got 2533 01:58:01,160 --> 01:58:03,880 Speaker 2: until Tuesday before he started playing this song in his 2534 01:58:03,880 --> 01:58:07,000 Speaker 2: head or finished playing this song in his head. So 2535 01:58:07,120 --> 01:58:12,040 Speaker 2: NIC's going Eddie. Sorry walking five hundred miles. You know 2536 01:58:12,120 --> 01:58:14,760 Speaker 2: my winter summer challenge. I say it every year in 2537 01:58:14,760 --> 01:58:15,360 Speaker 2: the wintertime. 2538 01:58:15,560 --> 01:58:16,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm well aware of it. 2539 01:58:17,560 --> 01:58:19,360 Speaker 2: Okay, I said, in the winter time when it was 2540 01:58:19,400 --> 01:58:21,520 Speaker 2: It wasn't long ago. During the polar vortext war was 2541 01:58:21,560 --> 01:58:24,480 Speaker 2: freezing outside, and I said, okay, either. 2542 01:58:24,320 --> 01:58:26,000 Speaker 1: The coldest day of the year or the hottest day 2543 01:58:26,000 --> 01:58:27,240 Speaker 1: of the year. You pick one of those two. 2544 01:58:27,640 --> 01:58:31,080 Speaker 2: You gotta walk five miles, two laps around the Indianapolis 2545 01:58:31,120 --> 01:58:34,880 Speaker 2: Motor Speedway five miles and you can either do it 2546 01:58:34,920 --> 01:58:37,080 Speaker 2: on the coldest day of the year or the hottest 2547 01:58:37,120 --> 01:58:40,440 Speaker 2: day of the year. But you have to dress in 2548 01:58:40,520 --> 01:58:43,320 Speaker 2: the exact outdoor clothing you would be wearing on the 2549 01:58:43,360 --> 01:58:48,640 Speaker 2: opposite day. And it's interesting because during the winter time, 2550 01:58:48,680 --> 01:58:51,400 Speaker 2: when I ask it, everybody says, oh, the summer, for sure. 2551 01:58:51,440 --> 01:58:54,360 Speaker 2: I mean I can handle the summer. The winter, though 2552 01:58:54,400 --> 01:58:56,120 Speaker 2: it's freezing outside, There's no way I could do it. 2553 01:58:57,360 --> 01:58:58,720 Speaker 2: I think right now, if you tried to do it, 2554 01:58:58,760 --> 01:59:01,040 Speaker 2: you'd be If you put on right now winter gear 2555 01:59:01,080 --> 01:59:01,600 Speaker 2: and tried. 2556 01:59:01,480 --> 01:59:04,040 Speaker 1: To do it, it would be there. 2557 01:59:04,080 --> 01:59:06,560 Speaker 2: I don't think you'd make it because and keep in mind, 2558 01:59:07,000 --> 01:59:10,080 Speaker 2: the track temperature is going to be double what the 2559 01:59:10,120 --> 01:59:13,160 Speaker 2: air temperature is. It would be there's no way you'd 2560 01:59:13,160 --> 01:59:16,800 Speaker 2: make it. It's very warm outside. Please stay hydrated. Okay, 2561 01:59:17,800 --> 01:59:27,440 Speaker 2: what's that? Okay, okay, okay, that's about what we'd be 2562 01:59:27,480 --> 01:59:30,080 Speaker 2: going through your head during the delirium when the heat 2563 01:59:30,080 --> 01:59:34,320 Speaker 2: exhaustion set in, right just before you went down. 2564 01:59:34,920 --> 01:59:35,280 Speaker 1: Okay. 2565 01:59:35,320 --> 01:59:38,760 Speaker 2: Pacers news to report, Fever news to report, Colt's news 2566 01:59:38,760 --> 01:59:41,600 Speaker 2: to report. We will begin with the Pacers and Riek Freeman. 2567 01:59:41,840 --> 01:59:45,280 Speaker 2: The Pacers opted out of his contract his two way contract. 2568 01:59:45,880 --> 01:59:49,160 Speaker 2: He is now an unrestricted free agent, and Taylor Peter, 2569 01:59:49,440 --> 01:59:51,960 Speaker 2: their draft pick, has now gotten a two way deal 2570 01:59:52,080 --> 01:59:55,360 Speaker 2: and so as a result, and rie K Freeman has 2571 01:59:55,400 --> 01:59:58,680 Speaker 2: been replaced roster wise, at least in terms of the 2572 01:59:58,760 --> 02:00:02,680 Speaker 2: numbers standpoint or the spot standpoint by Taylor Peter. So 2573 02:00:02,800 --> 02:00:06,120 Speaker 2: the roster as it stands right now is full for 2574 02:00:06,280 --> 02:00:09,640 Speaker 2: the Pacers WNBA side of things. For the Fever, Caitlyn 2575 02:00:09,680 --> 02:00:12,800 Speaker 2: Clark no new news on her injury. That from earlier 2576 02:00:12,840 --> 02:00:16,879 Speaker 2: today from Stephanie White on this program, and they sought 2577 02:00:17,200 --> 02:00:20,240 Speaker 2: second opinion on Caitlin Clark, there was no new information 2578 02:00:20,280 --> 02:00:23,320 Speaker 2: to come from that, so she continues to be out 2579 02:00:23,360 --> 02:00:27,360 Speaker 2: indefinitely while they await that soft tissue injury to see 2580 02:00:27,400 --> 02:00:30,560 Speaker 2: when she would be available to the Indiana Fever, who 2581 02:00:30,560 --> 02:00:33,760 Speaker 2: tonight take on the Las Vegas Aces. Eddie Garrison will 2582 02:00:33,760 --> 02:00:37,200 Speaker 2: be on the pre and postgame broadcast of that particular 2583 02:00:37,240 --> 02:00:42,000 Speaker 2: matchup tonight. JMV is out at Taylor's Pub in Greenbrier. 2584 02:00:42,080 --> 02:00:43,480 Speaker 2: Plenty of time for you to get by, have a 2585 02:00:43,480 --> 02:00:45,360 Speaker 2: cold one with him, whether it be Die Cooke perfectly 2586 02:00:45,360 --> 02:00:47,720 Speaker 2: sufficient or a beverage of your choice, but to be 2587 02:00:47,760 --> 02:00:49,600 Speaker 2: able to listen to what J ANDB has to say 2588 02:00:49,960 --> 02:00:52,120 Speaker 2: beginning coming up here in just a couple of minutes. 2589 02:00:52,400 --> 02:00:55,480 Speaker 2: Back to the Bernard Ryman situation. Eddie, you told me 2590 02:00:55,520 --> 02:00:58,920 Speaker 2: that you had a question regarding that situation of Bernard Ryman. 2591 02:00:59,040 --> 02:00:59,920 Speaker 11: I do two things. 2592 02:01:00,440 --> 02:01:03,240 Speaker 3: Number one, do you think Bernard Rabbins camp is looking 2593 02:01:03,240 --> 02:01:05,480 Speaker 3: at the fact that Quentin Nelson is getting paid twenty 2594 02:01:05,480 --> 02:01:08,160 Speaker 3: million dollars as a left guard in they're saying, hey, 2595 02:01:08,160 --> 02:01:10,600 Speaker 3: you're paying him that my client is worth more than this. 2596 02:01:11,040 --> 02:01:15,000 Speaker 3: And then number two, do the carly ersay and all 2597 02:01:15,040 --> 02:01:18,320 Speaker 3: the darters have a say in this, like are they 2598 02:01:18,320 --> 02:01:20,920 Speaker 3: telling Chris Baalid like, hey, let's hold off on committing 2599 02:01:20,960 --> 02:01:22,920 Speaker 3: any big money right now. Let's kind of figure out 2600 02:01:22,920 --> 02:01:24,760 Speaker 3: where things are at. Let's see how the season plays 2601 02:01:24,760 --> 02:01:28,040 Speaker 3: out before we commit to anybody down the line. 2602 02:01:28,480 --> 02:01:31,360 Speaker 2: Really good question, especially the second one there. My assumption 2603 02:01:31,440 --> 02:01:34,280 Speaker 2: would be My assumption would be, while you may be 2604 02:01:34,440 --> 02:01:37,720 Speaker 2: correct that the USA Daughters may say, look, you know, 2605 02:01:37,760 --> 02:01:40,440 Speaker 2: we we'd rather not do signings right before camp or 2606 02:01:40,440 --> 02:01:43,040 Speaker 2: in camp or whatever it may be, I'm going to 2607 02:01:43,200 --> 02:01:47,440 Speaker 2: assume that what they have said is, look, and I 2608 02:01:47,480 --> 02:01:50,520 Speaker 2: don't know this, Eddie. It's a great question. My assumption 2609 02:01:50,560 --> 02:01:52,640 Speaker 2: would be that they say to Chris Ballard, you have 2610 02:01:52,680 --> 02:01:55,000 Speaker 2: been hired to run the football team, and that includes 2611 02:01:55,160 --> 02:01:58,880 Speaker 2: determining what players are and are not worth what salaries. 2612 02:01:59,400 --> 02:02:05,520 Speaker 2: So before you throw a number out and sign somebody 2613 02:02:05,520 --> 02:02:07,240 Speaker 2: to an astronomical number, we'd like to know what the 2614 02:02:07,280 --> 02:02:09,160 Speaker 2: number is first, but we are going to trust in 2615 02:02:09,200 --> 02:02:11,760 Speaker 2: default to your judgment whether or not that. So, in 2616 02:02:11,800 --> 02:02:14,080 Speaker 2: other words, I think they say, here's the amount from 2617 02:02:14,120 --> 02:02:16,720 Speaker 2: a salary cap standpoint, we're willing to spend. You have 2618 02:02:16,800 --> 02:02:20,120 Speaker 2: been hired and entrusted to determine in your best interest 2619 02:02:20,400 --> 02:02:22,720 Speaker 2: where that is allocated, and so long as you are 2620 02:02:22,760 --> 02:02:25,960 Speaker 2: staying within that parameter, obviously by NFL rules, then we 2621 02:02:26,000 --> 02:02:28,080 Speaker 2: trust you on that. So I do think that they 2622 02:02:28,200 --> 02:02:33,120 Speaker 2: probably have gone with the same understanding that their father had, 2623 02:02:33,440 --> 02:02:35,960 Speaker 2: which is that is his decision to make, and we 2624 02:02:35,960 --> 02:02:38,120 Speaker 2: will trust you. But it's a very good question. And 2625 02:02:38,160 --> 02:02:41,879 Speaker 2: that's not to say that's on my behalf the definitive answer. 2626 02:02:42,000 --> 02:02:42,320 Speaker 1: All right. 2627 02:02:42,320 --> 02:02:45,280 Speaker 2: Thanks to Bernard Ryman, Stephanie White, as well Tom Deanhart, 2628 02:02:45,320 --> 02:02:48,480 Speaker 2: Matt Taylor for today, day number two of Colts Camp 2629 02:02:48,560 --> 02:02:51,080 Speaker 2: in the Books, Day number three tomorrow.
