It's fun in effect, it's the yeah We're three. 0:02:08.000 --> 0:02:12.960 Fun fun fact brought to you by Concordia University IRVINES 0:02:13.120 --> 0:02:17.000 Masters in Coaching and Athletics Administration Program. It's a fact 0:02:17.400 --> 0:02:21.639 over five thousand coaches and administrators have graduated from their 0:02:21.680 --> 0:02:25.800 master's program. Find out more at CUI dot eedu slash coaching. 0:02:26.200 --> 0:02:30.720 You do the math, and the math says Santa has 0:02:30.800 --> 0:02:34.960 to visit eight hundred and twenty two homes per second 0:02:35.720 --> 0:02:39.760 to deliver all the world's presence on Christmas Eve while 0:02:39.840 --> 0:02:44.880 traveling at six hundred and fifty miles per second. But that, 0:02:44.960 --> 0:02:48.440 of course assumes that every kid is on the nice list, 0:02:49.040 --> 0:02:50.560 and we know that not to be true. 0:02:50.639 --> 0:02:51.320 That's the truth. 0:02:51.800 --> 0:02:53.960 So when you factor in the percentage of the naughties, 0:02:54.600 --> 0:02:55.360 that thing has halved. 0:02:55.400 --> 0:02:56.560 At least it cleaved. 0:02:57.080 --> 0:03:00.200 So you're talking four hundred and eleven homes at three 0:03:00.320 --> 0:03:03.640 hundred and twenty five miles per second. Much more manageab, 0:03:03.639 --> 0:03:06.880 way more manageable, much more management for Saint Nick, no doubt. 0:03:07.000 --> 0:03:12.760 All right, it is time for the quick hits, quick hits. 0:03:13.040 --> 0:03:13.880 Make it quick, y'all. 0:03:18.000 --> 0:03:21.280 Oh yeah, the Lakers fifteen to five had their seven 0:03:21.320 --> 0:03:24.839 game win streak snapped. We talked to Allen's sleep. Yes, 0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:27.040 we had the hoops talk in the last segment. Here's 0:03:27.120 --> 0:03:31.480 JJ Reddick postgame. You'd be surprised, but he's not happy 0:03:31.520 --> 0:03:32.519 with his teams performance. 0:03:32.720 --> 0:03:34.680 You're if you don't play hard against that team, you're 0:03:34.680 --> 0:03:37.640 gonna get exposed. So you know you. 0:03:41.800 --> 0:03:42.600 Multiple times in. 0:03:42.520 --> 0:03:46.160 The first half we have a numbers advantage in transition 0:03:46.280 --> 0:03:49.160 on the defensive end, and guys just run by us. 0:03:50.320 --> 0:03:53.240 You know, it's we. 0:03:53.160 --> 0:03:57.280 Talked about matching their physicality. Didn't do that to any 0:03:57.440 --> 0:03:59.360 extent at any point in the game. 0:04:00.920 --> 0:04:01.280 I don't know. 0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:03.720 It's it's it's it's a weird it's a weird. 0:04:03.560 --> 0:04:04.080 Sort of thing. 0:04:04.560 --> 0:04:05.120 It really is. 0:04:05.800 --> 0:04:09.920 It's like it's like the Monstars taking over the people 0:04:09.960 --> 0:04:14.840 that you've grown to coach, and they're not doing anything 0:04:14.840 --> 0:04:15.640 that they normally do. 0:04:16.360 --> 0:04:16.839 It's weird. 0:04:17.680 --> 0:04:19.360 I thought the Monstars were pretty physical. 0:04:19.839 --> 0:04:21.480 Yeah, the Monstars played pretty hard. 0:04:21.520 --> 0:04:26.280 Yeah, boofing and bopping Charles Barkley and Patrick Ewan all 0:04:26.320 --> 0:04:26.800 over the place. 0:04:27.040 --> 0:04:30.960 Of Lebron's post game, he was asked about his uh 0:04:31.080 --> 0:04:33.920 foot injury that kept him out of the game on Sunday, 0:04:33.920 --> 0:04:36.960 and then asked Himbout maybe reverning the offense back to 0:04:37.120 --> 0:04:44.560 him more. If you get it, you understand, you understand, 0:04:44.920 --> 0:04:48.760 Just wake up, Janet and that before you know your role. 0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:52.560 With this team, in particular this season, when when things 0:04:52.560 --> 0:04:54.720 are kind of, you know, kind of stuck in the mud, 0:04:56.279 --> 0:04:59.760 is there an instinct to try to maybe buck what 0:04:59.760 --> 0:05:01.800 you do and you get the ball back in your 0:05:01.800 --> 0:05:06.560 hands or I mean, obviously Lucas Luca and then cares 0:05:06.600 --> 0:05:09.440 a bigger load generally with this team, and is it 0:05:09.560 --> 0:05:12.880 kind of let that play out and then you go 0:05:12.920 --> 0:05:13.800 from there. 0:05:13.600 --> 0:05:15.280 There you go there working man. 0:05:15.320 --> 0:05:18.240 Obviously, you know we have opportunity to change pitches and 0:05:18.240 --> 0:05:20.640 switch pitches, but the goal was working. 0:05:20.680 --> 0:05:23.400 Obviously, you know, we didn't play our brand of basketball 0:05:23.400 --> 0:05:24.159 the way we wanted to play. 0:05:24.200 --> 0:05:25.520 So he's just one game. 0:05:25.560 --> 0:05:30.960 We don't so Lucas Luca. But if things are going bad, 0:05:32.040 --> 0:05:35.480 is there a tendency by you God, just ask him. Hey, Lebron, 0:05:35.520 --> 0:05:36.640 you want the ball in your hands more? 0:05:37.040 --> 0:05:41.159 He'll say, coverage nauseating Lebron Maverick Carter Prox. 0:05:41.200 --> 0:05:42.039 He's in the media, and. 0:05:42.080 --> 0:05:44.920 He does not care about saying the right thing. He 0:05:45.000 --> 0:05:47.240 cares about saying the right thing that makes Lebron look 0:05:47.320 --> 0:05:49.839 the best. Should you have the ball in your hand more, Lebron? 0:05:49.920 --> 0:05:50.440 Damn right. 0:05:51.279 --> 0:05:53.960 The Clippers are five and sixteen, though terrible, they lost 0:05:54.000 --> 0:05:55.760 five in a row.

WHOA, They're gonna 0:06:10.120 --> 0:06:10.960 be really good forever. 0:06:13.320 --> 0:06:16.960 I already saw trade talk for the Clippers. They were pointing, 0:06:17.200 --> 0:06:18.680 they made a good point. They're like, they have to 0:06:18.680 --> 0:06:21.200 go sixteen and five to be twenty one and twenty 0:06:21.240 --> 0:06:22.480 one at the halfway mark. 0:06:22.760 --> 0:06:24.919 I heard that's not gonna happen. I heard Carlos on 0:06:24.960 --> 0:06:25.360 the block. 0:06:25.520 --> 0:06:27.080 Oh but his tiktoks. 0:06:27.480 --> 0:06:30.560 That's why he's got a high value, right, putting him up. 0:06:31.000 --> 0:06:34.520 Rams are nine and three in Arizona on Sunday taking 0:06:34.560 --> 0:06:36.880 on the Cardinals. Chargers are eight and four at home 0:06:36.920 --> 0:06:39.720 on Monday night versus the Eagles. Jim Harbaugh was on 0:06:39.839 --> 0:06:42.920 with Colin Coward today.

Yeah, uh, Jamari saw you really did a 0:07:05.680 --> 0:07:08.760 heck of a job at left tackle. Zion Johnson played 0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:10.960 one of his best games. Brad Boseman had one of 0:07:10.960 --> 0:07:15.360 his best games. Kai Beckton uh graded out over all 0:07:15.920 --> 0:07:18.680 all of our lineman graded out over ninety percent. Trey 0:07:18.760 --> 0:07:22.680 Pipkins had had a bunch of key blocks. Our running 0:07:22.720 --> 0:07:26.320 backs really, uh, you know did a phenomenal job.

Justin Herbert 0:07:42.920 --> 0:07:47.400 he is uh. Uh, he's he's he's a he's a lead, 0:07:47.480 --> 0:07:50.040 he's a beast, he's uh, he's one of the best 0:07:50.360 --> 0:07:51.360 in my opinion. 0:07:51.720 --> 0:07:53.080 So he is playing in the game now. 0:07:53.120 --> 0:07:55.480 And ever do you ever have to say to Justin listen, 0:07:55.560 --> 0:07:57.600 I love that you're a tough guy. Could you be 0:07:57.640 --> 0:08:00.360 a little less tough? Could just slide? You ever have 0:08:00.440 --> 0:08:03.400 to just send him down? As a former quarterback, say Justin, 0:08:04.000 --> 0:08:07.920 I know you're six five and two fifty. These guys want. 0:08:07.720 --> 0:08:08.080 To hurt you. 0:08:08.360 --> 0:08:11.040 Do you ever have those conversations with you? 0:08:11.040 --> 0:08:16.160 You know, not too many, you know, not really Justin 0:08:16.320 --> 0:08:19.720 is just he's at a level that that I just 0:08:19.800 --> 0:08:23.240 let Justin be Justin and and he knows exactly what 0:08:23.280 --> 0:08:27.280 he's doing. He's doing it, you know, at the highest 0:08:27.840 --> 0:08:30.920 level of person possibly can. But would I would tell 0:08:30.960 --> 0:08:34.160 all quarterbacks because I remember those days of trying to. 0:08:34.160 --> 0:08:36.400 Be cute on the sideline too.

You know, you look like you're stepping out 0:08:40.840 --> 0:08:43.480 of bounds and you're trying to get him to hit you, 0:08:43.520 --> 0:08:46.439 so you can kind of you know, get get the penalty. 0:08:46.880 --> 0:08:50.319 But you know those that's a that's an emphasis right 0:08:50.360 --> 0:08:52.839 now in the NFL that and they even send it 0:08:52.960 --> 0:08:55.600 up for review, like if both those feet aren't out 0:08:55.640 --> 0:08:58.440 of bounds, you know you can you can be hit. 0:08:58.880 --> 0:09:01.640 Justin had surgery.

Okay, what if he's the kind of 0:09:12.559 --> 0:09:14.680 he's the kind of guy you have to pull back. 0:09:14.920 --> 0:09:17.600 You can never you can never uh you could never 0:09:17.800 --> 0:09:20.520 uh you never have to talk him into playing football, 0:09:20.559 --> 0:09:22.840 that's for sure.

The NHL is sending out 0:11:05.760 --> 0:11:08.560 a memo to mind teams that helmets are mandatory in 0:11:08.640 --> 0:11:11.960 warm ups for all players who entered the NHL beginning 0:11:12.360 --> 0:11:15.079 with the twenty nineteen twenty twenty season or later. 0:11:15.240 --> 0:11:16.960 What's up with that guy over there that's got no 0:11:17.040 --> 0:11:19.840 helmet at all? Smoking a cigarette? He to be like 0:11:19.880 --> 0:11:21.480 that during a whole game. You could be an old 0:11:21.520 --> 0:11:24.560 head with no helmet. I remember that, Al mckinnis. I 0:11:24.600 --> 0:11:26.720 remember going to a hockey game and being like, why 0:11:26.760 --> 0:11:27.520 didn't that one guy have. 0:11:27.520 --> 0:11:27.959 A helmet on? 0:11:28.000 --> 0:11:30.920 Earlater, your grandfather, he's old enough he can have to 0:11:32.120 --> 0:11:35.559 Two teams from two teams in the last week have 0:11:35.840 --> 0:11:38.679 got out to warm ups without their helmets. Trying to 0:11:38.720 --> 0:11:41.560 switch things up to snap a losing streak. It worked 0:11:41.600 --> 0:11:43.880 for the Senators, did not work for the Sharks. When 0:11:43.920 --> 0:11:46.600 asked about it, the Senators and the Sharks both referenced 0:11:46.600 --> 0:11:49.560 Matt mney Smith on the Petrols of Money Show saying 0:11:49.800 --> 0:11:51.320 they don't think that we should have to wear head 0:11:51.320 --> 0:11:54.040 gear because we want to be free and. 0:11:54.520 --> 0:11:59.640 Hair when we do have the the annual flow rankings, 0:12:00.080 --> 0:12:01.800 I mean, what's the point of having flow rankings? Have 0:12:01.840 --> 0:12:03.160 you got to wear a helmet in the warm ups? 0:12:03.200 --> 0:12:06.920 Mike Piazza has always said after twenty three Grand Prixx 0:12:07.600 --> 0:12:10.080 six sprint races and more than eight months of racing, 0:12:10.120 --> 0:12:12.400 the twenty twenty five Formula One season will come down 0:12:12.400 --> 0:12:16.840 to a final race for the championship, the driver's chip 0:12:17.440 --> 0:12:21.440 for the F one Drivers Championship. All three drivers still 0:12:21.440 --> 0:12:24.000 have a real chance to win the championship with the 0:12:24.080 --> 0:12:27.200 victory for stopping is now just twelve points. Shy of 0:12:27.360 --> 0:12:30.920 Norris going into the final race at Abu Dhabi Grand 0:12:30.920 --> 0:12:34.839 Prix next Sunday. We'll have an F one report on Thursday. 0:12:34.520 --> 0:12:36.120 And now we have a bunch of winko. 0:12:36.600 --> 0:12:38.920 Yeah, well not yet. 0:12:39.120 --> 0:12:42.120 I mean, you know, there's there's still a chance. But 0:12:42.160 --> 0:12:45.520 if for stopping can repeat the exact same results next 0:12:45.559 --> 0:12:49.920 weekend a win Pastrian second and Norris and fourth, he 0:12:49.960 --> 0:12:52.840 would win his fifth drivers Championship in a row. 0:12:53.520 --> 0:12:55.960 I mean, if you're a McLaren, you just get one 0:12:55.960 --> 0:12:58.600 of your two drivers to just nuke him right out 0:12:58.600 --> 0:12:59.720 of the race, right. 0:13:00.200 --> 0:13:01.960 That's what they would have mean, that's what they would 0:13:01.920 --> 0:13:02.760 have done twenty years ago. 0:13:02.880 --> 0:13:04.800 Matt like, Hey, sorry Max. 0:13:04.880 --> 0:13:06.920 Yeah, but twenty years ago by you would never have 0:13:07.000 --> 0:13:09.959 hired a Simoonen guy. So times Change. 0:13:09.760 --> 0:13:12.040 Didn't you pay like Williams to do it? They suck anyways, 0:13:12.080 --> 0:13:16.079 Right here, here's twenty million. Hey William Williams, Hey, Albo, 0:13:16.280 --> 0:13:19.319 how dare you? William was pretty good this year. Now 0:13:19.360 --> 0:13:23.199 you want Nico Haltonberson talking, let's go.

Eleven years 0:14:42.880 --> 0:14:45.720 at Sports Illustrated, he was at the Athletic. 0:14:45.640 --> 0:14:47.400 As a Southern American. 0:14:47.600 --> 0:14:49.440 You said something that got up underneath my skin. 0:14:49.680 --> 0:14:53.520 Now he's with on three Sports.

It is Andy Staples back on Petro said money, 0:15:01.280 --> 0:15:01.760 what's cracking? 0:15:01.840 --> 0:15:02.560 Andy? How are you? 0:15:03.280 --> 0:15:04.800 I must be in the stitch. I don't know if 0:15:04.840 --> 0:15:07.080 phones just went out, so but now I was asking 0:15:07.080 --> 0:15:08.600 if that was if that was one of my relatives 0:15:08.600 --> 0:15:11.440 you played earlier. I don't know if it's the South 0:15:11.440 --> 0:15:14.200 Carolina side or the Alabama side of the family. Maybe 0:15:14.200 --> 0:15:16.880 maybe I live in Florida, so just typical Florida man. 0:15:16.920 --> 0:15:19.840 But yeah, well, we think of you as whenever we 0:15:19.880 --> 0:15:22.560 talk to you, as you skimming across the Bayou in 0:15:22.640 --> 0:15:26.040 an air boat going from source to source. 0:15:27.200 --> 0:15:31.920 I'm not kidding here. I live in a fairly bougie neighborhood, 0:15:32.360 --> 0:15:35.280 but seriously, two streets over for me, there's a guy 0:15:35.320 --> 0:15:37.000 who keeps his airboat parked in front of them. 0:15:37.160 --> 0:15:37.520 Yeah. 0:15:37.600 --> 0:15:39.360 Yeah, three days a week. 0:15:39.480 --> 0:15:42.080 That is how we wanted you while you're up. 0:15:42.200 --> 0:15:44.760 Now, look, you've covered these stories, I mean, all the 0:15:44.760 --> 0:15:47.840 way back from you know, the Auburn Private Jets trying 0:15:47.880 --> 0:15:51.720 to undermine Tommy Tubberville or whatever. I mean, we've seen 0:15:51.760 --> 0:15:55.200 it all. But where does this Kiff and Saga kind 0:15:55.200 --> 0:15:58.880 of rank for you? It just feels like it's never ending, 0:15:59.040 --> 0:16:03.440 and it's so it's just there's something even more tantalizing 0:16:03.480 --> 0:16:04.000 every day. 0:16:05.240 --> 0:16:07.640 It had so many tentacles. I think that's what made 0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:10.840 it so interesting because when Florida fired Billion Apier, it 0:16:10.880 --> 0:16:12.680 was very clear that their top target was going to 0:16:12.720 --> 0:16:16.160 be Lane Kiffin, and then when LSU fired Brian Kelly, 0:16:16.200 --> 0:16:17.800 it was clear their top target was going to be 0:16:17.840 --> 0:16:20.800 Lane Kiffin. And meanwhile, Lane Kiffin is busy leading Ole 0:16:20.920 --> 0:16:24.240 miss toward the playoff and so you knew this collision 0:16:24.240 --> 0:16:26.640 course was coming. And it was really with two weeks 0:16:26.680 --> 0:16:28.400 left in the season that we kind of figured out, 0:16:28.920 --> 0:16:32.200 oh no, if they make the playoffs and he's not staying, 0:16:32.960 --> 0:16:36.520 they're not gonna let him coach. And we talked to, 0:16:36.800 --> 0:16:39.880 you know, a bunch of different ads and asked them, hey, 0:16:40.720 --> 0:16:42.720 would you let your guy do this if he was 0:16:42.760 --> 0:16:45.280 going from this school to this school and it matters 0:16:45.280 --> 0:16:47.920 which school you're going to and which school you're coming from, 0:16:48.360 --> 0:16:50.120 And every one of them said, there's no way. If 0:16:50.160 --> 0:16:51.920 I was old, miss Ad, I would let the LSU 0:16:51.960 --> 0:16:54.480 coach coach my team or the Florida coach coach my team. 0:16:54.800 --> 0:16:58.560 And so we knew this was coming. I'd say it 0:16:58.640 --> 0:17:00.480 exploded even more spectacus. 0:17:00.040 --> 0:17:02.400 Fully that I imagined it would, which is what you 0:17:02.440 --> 0:17:05.280 assume is going to happen when Lane Kiffin is involved. 0:17:05.520 --> 0:17:10.960 We'd like to, you know, blame something or someone, some entity, 0:17:11.119 --> 0:17:14.600 some rules. What is it that we should probably focus 0:17:14.640 --> 0:17:16.560 the most amount of blame. Is it just that that 0:17:16.840 --> 0:17:19.359 schools are allowed to do this? Is that the problem? 0:17:20.640 --> 0:17:23.680 No, Lane Kiffen decided to do this, Okay, that's what 0:17:23.760 --> 0:17:25.960 you should blame. He could have stayed at all Miss. 0:17:26.160 --> 0:17:29.440 Nobody was holding him hostage, holding a gun to his head, saying, 0:17:29.440 --> 0:17:31.600 decide you want to go to Florida or LSU. 0:17:32.200 --> 0:17:33.720 So he could have. 0:17:33.640 --> 0:17:35.639 Avoided all this by just staying in all Miss. So 0:17:35.760 --> 0:17:38.800 he made a choice. And you can blame the calendar 0:17:38.840 --> 0:17:40.800 if you want, but the calendar exists the way it 0:17:40.840 --> 0:17:44.720 does because that's where the semester break is. The semester 0:17:44.760 --> 0:17:46.960 break exists where it does because that's where Christmas is. 0:17:47.359 --> 0:17:50.960 So basically, unless you want to overhaul the American Higher 0:17:51.040 --> 0:17:55.560 Educational Systems calendar or move Christmas, I don't think you're 0:17:55.560 --> 0:17:56.800 really going to get much change. 0:17:57.359 --> 0:18:01.159 Always great perspective Live from the airboat. Andy Staples on 0:18:01.200 --> 0:18:04.160 the Betross and Moundy Show on a five seventy LA 0:18:04.280 --> 0:18:08.240 Sports talking about the coaching Carassel very interesting in the SEC, 0:18:08.600 --> 0:18:10.639 but it's not like everybody's got it figured out in 0:18:10.680 --> 0:18:14.000 the big ten. What's going on with Penn State and 0:18:14.200 --> 0:18:16.679 how come they can't find somebody to take their millions 0:18:16.720 --> 0:18:18.520 and millions and millions of dollars. 0:18:19.240 --> 0:18:22.399 Do y'all remember that Tennessee search a few years ago? Yes, 0:18:22.520 --> 0:18:26.240 that went absolutely crazy. So actually, so Mike Leach was 0:18:26.240 --> 0:18:29.560 actually sitting, the late Great Mike Leach may he rest 0:18:29.600 --> 0:18:32.960 in peace, was at a hotel in Marina del Rey 0:18:33.720 --> 0:18:36.280 waiting for the Tennessee Ad to get there. I remember 0:18:36.359 --> 0:18:39.560 my phone that I got it at four thirty am 0:18:39.640 --> 0:18:42.400 Eastern time, the morning of the day he was supposed 0:18:42.400 --> 0:18:44.320 to meet him, and it just says who the hell 0:18:44.359 --> 0:18:48.400 is in charge there? And it turned out later that day. 0:18:48.520 --> 0:18:51.320 Later that morning, the Tennessee AD was called back to 0:18:51.400 --> 0:18:53.959 Knoxville and fired because of the way he was handling 0:18:53.960 --> 0:18:56.959 that coaching search. And that's the one where they were 0:18:56.960 --> 0:18:59.800 going to hire Greg Ciano. The fans revolted and then 0:18:59.800 --> 0:19:03.639 they didn't hire. So Penn State Search is veering into 0:19:03.680 --> 0:19:07.479 that passage and they've talked to a lot of people. 0:19:07.920 --> 0:19:11.320 They just never have gotten down the road. It's that 0:19:11.520 --> 0:19:14.600 they had focused their energies on Colonie Sataki at b Yu. 0:19:15.000 --> 0:19:18.600 Kilanie was very clear with anybody who might have been 0:19:18.600 --> 0:19:22.040 interested in him that he was not doing anything until 0:19:22.040 --> 0:19:25.600 after this Big twelve championship game. And I suspect, I 0:19:25.680 --> 0:19:28.760 don't know this for a fact, but I suspect if 0:19:28.800 --> 0:19:31.800 BYU won, or if BYU just got into the College 0:19:31.800 --> 0:19:35.000 Football Playoff without beating Texas Tech in this game, either way, 0:19:35.520 --> 0:19:37.800 that Colonie was probably be like, no, never mind, I'm 0:19:37.800 --> 0:19:41.399 just gonna stay at Uyu. So you're gonna have to 0:19:41.400 --> 0:19:43.720 wait on him. And I don't think Penn State's willing 0:19:43.760 --> 0:19:46.439 to wait at this point, because if you think about this, 0:19:46.920 --> 0:19:51.360 when Lane made his decision, final, final, final decision on Sunday, 0:19:51.960 --> 0:19:56.119 all the dominoes fell. Arkansas hit, Auburn hit, Florida hit. 0:19:56.359 --> 0:19:59.800 That's what everybody was waiting for, clearly, and Penn State 0:19:59.880 --> 0:20:01.960 was not in position to make a hire, had not 0:20:02.040 --> 0:20:04.400 gotten down the road with anybody they really liked. And 0:20:04.720 --> 0:20:06.880 I got to be honest with you, guys, if I'm 0:20:06.880 --> 0:20:09.920 a coach, it's not just the mechanics of the search 0:20:09.960 --> 0:20:14.160
