It's right, good bounce back win 67 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 3: for nkyal. 68 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 2: If they would have lost to Cleveland State, we may 69 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 2: have started the show with the ave Maria Oh today 70 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 2: because if you're losing to those guys, you're in trouble. 71 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 2: But that's a good point, no doubt. Darren Horn's team 72 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 2: was ready to go. 73 00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 3: You know nku's next game at home, bring it Wright State, 74 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,119 Speaker 3: bring it that happens on Saturday. 75 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 2: And the words did Jeff Brantley bring in on. 76 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 3: The Xavier Musketeers last night fall on the road at Providence. 77 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 3: Will recap that loss. We'll see if there's any Richard 78 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:18,160 Speaker 3: Patino audio and Xavier now gets ready to host Georgetown 79 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,559 Speaker 3: at the Centas Center on Saturday. And how about last 80 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 3: night what Yukon did to Richard Patino's father seventy two 81 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 3: to forty, Yukon peats Saint John's. Saint John's was held 82 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 3: to fourteen points in the second half. They did not 83 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 3: score a field goal from the floor in the final 84 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 3: seventeen minutes of the game. That's one point per minute 85 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:47,479 Speaker 3: in a game forty minutes. Forty points not good for 86 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:51,919 Speaker 3: Saint John's. I wonder, Austin, because the Patino family is 87 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 3: that's basketball gold, that's basketball royalty. I would have to 88 00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 3: look up. Have have they ever lost by a bind 89 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 3: forty two on the same night. 90 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 2: That's a good question. 91 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 3: Thirty two point loss for Saint John's. A ten point 92 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 3: loss by Xavier at Providence. Again, we'll talk about that game. 93 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,039 Speaker 3: We'll recap that game. We'll also look ahead to a 94 00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:19,039 Speaker 3: busy weekend ahead on Saturday, Kentucky host Vanderbilt, UC host 95 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 3: Oklahoma State, Louisville, Head's on the road at Clemson, and 96 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 3: Dayton is on the road at George Washington on Friday night. 97 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 3: So we will talk college hoops later on this afternoon. 98 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,839 Speaker 3: What about FC Cincinnati last night, Austin. 99 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 2: Oh, my gosh, I think they just scored again? Did 100 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 2: I see it correctly? Nine nil? That's correct against O 101 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 2: and M nine of them things and thirteen to nil 102 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 2: in the aggregate. Tef C Cincinnati to move on in 103 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:52,039 Speaker 2: the CONCACAFF Champions Cup. Apparently O and M had some 104 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 2: trouble getting players to the United States due to some 105 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 2: visa and travel issues, so I think they only had 106 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:03,159 Speaker 2: like fourteen total players with them yiks, So they traveled 107 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 2: a long way to get their face bashed in. I 108 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,359 Speaker 2: give credit exactly what happened last night. Eight different players 109 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 2: combined for the nine goals. Yeah, they took care of 110 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 2: business there. Shut out to FC Cincinnati. Tommy g as 111 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 2: a sore throat today. You think he's going to post 112 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,919 Speaker 2: all nine goals from the booth camp? I would absolutely. 113 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 2: I mean that would do Numbies. 114 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 3: Aggregate thirteen nothing. They advance in the Conka CAFF Champions 115 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 3: Cup to the round of sixteen. 116 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 2: I think they go ahead. No, please, I think thought 117 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 2: that t Grace awaits them. Okay, now that's a formidable opponent. Yes, 118 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 2: that's quite the step up from what you just played 119 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 2: with O and M. I would assume, by the way 120 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 2: nine is, it's got to be a franchise record for 121 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,280 Speaker 2: goals and team right, I would I haven't looked at it, 122 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 2: I would assume, so I would think they know rest 123 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 2: for the weary though. They head to Minnesota for an 124 00:06:56,360 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 2: MLS clash on Saturday afternoon, we'll talk to Tommy gut 125 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 2: that tomorrow. Max Scherzer coming back for year sixteen. He's 126 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 2: gonna play for the Toronto Blue Jays. Maxi Schurezer to 127 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 2: the Blue Jays. Today, we'll do a Major League Baseball roundup. 128 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 2: We'll talk about what the Reds did yesterday to the 129 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 2: White Sox, another win. We'll talk about Lodolo's outing, and 130 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 2: we'll talk about the ball that JJ Bleday hit that 131 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 2: has yet to land in Arizona. There's a trade in 132 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 2: the UNFL. Did him when he said he's a left 133 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 2: handed power bat? I mean, you didn't take him seriously. 134 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 2: I might have to start, well, I might have to start. 135 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 3: Jets they trade defensive lineman Jermaine Johnson to the Tennessee 136 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 3: Titans for Devandre Sweat, a rare player for player trade 137 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 3: happening earlier today in the NFL. You think those you 138 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 3: think the Jets and Titans just got together at the combine. 139 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 3: They're like, all right, let's make this official now. Well, 140 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 3: do they think they were breaking bread? 141 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 2: Robert Solo, the former head coach right of the Jets, 142 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 2: knows what type of player he wants and maybe knows 143 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 2: what type of player that Aaron Glenn, who, by the way, 144 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 2: said play calling is his superpower. That's right just the 145 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 2: other day. Yep, it's a nice little player for player 146 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 2: right there. I like it. I love for both teams. 147 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 3: We'll do a combine whip around. We got some ol 148 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 3: Golden Audio to get to here in our number one. 149 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 3: Didn't get to it yesterday, but the latest NFL quarterback 150 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 3: projections for teams this upcoming season. There's a couple of 151 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 3: names on the list that I want to throw out 152 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 3: there that I think would make for an interesting follow 153 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 3: along to the National Football League. It is safe to 154 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 3: say that I know we feel a certain way about 155 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 3: the Cincinnati Reds here in Cincinnati, and maybe what their 156 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 3: ceiling can be that I think is significantly higher than 157 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 3: what the national view of the Cincinnati Reds is right now. 158 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 3: I'm to go through some Major League Baseball lineup rankings 159 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 3: and some All Star predictions and just kind of show 160 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 3: what the consensus is right now around the Cincinnati Reds. 161 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,520 Speaker 3: We'll dive into that today. We made mentioned yesterday of 162 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 3: Tarik's scuball and how he's approaching the World Baseball Classic. 163 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 3: That is a much different view than Paul Skins and 164 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 3: his thoughts on the World Baseball Classic. He said when 165 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:11,079 Speaker 3: talking about the World Baseball Classic that winning gold is 166 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 3: the biggest thing. He said, men's hockey, women's hockey. All 167 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 3: the other golds in the Olympics were America. We've got 168 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 3: to assert our dominance over everybody else. That's what we do. 169 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,719 Speaker 3: USA wins, it's what we do. We got to keep 170 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 3: it going. 171 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,439 Speaker 2: I hate that Paul Skans is in the NL Central 172 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 2: I know, and specifically with Pittsburgh, because he is such 173 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 2: a likable guy and a fun pitcher to watch. It's 174 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 2: just gosh, it sucks that he's a Pittsburgh pirate. Who 175 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:40,559 Speaker 2: do you dislike the most out of the NL Central teams? 176 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 2: Because I think a lot of Reds fans would say 177 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:45,439 Speaker 2: the Cardinals. 178 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 3: I still think it's the Cardinals, even though I don't 179 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 3: think they're going to be very good. 180 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 2: For a while, I was I really hated the Cubs, 181 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 2: but I disliked the Cubs more because of their fans, right, 182 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,959 Speaker 2: But I dislike the Cardinals because of the players. Now, 183 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:02,199 Speaker 2: the Brewers, they're just annoying, just annoying, but you can't 184 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,320 Speaker 2: really like. They don't have a villain. The villain is 185 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 2: the fact that they win and they don't spend money. 186 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 2: The Pirates are just I think there's the built in 187 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 2: dislike of the Steelers, and you had these two teams 188 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,079 Speaker 2: going at it in the seventies for a long time. 189 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 2: The postseason history of just ten twelve years ago with 190 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 2: Quato and those games, like, I feel like I disliked 191 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 2: the Pirates the most. I think in order it would 192 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 2: be Pirates Wow, then Cardinals because there was some arrogance there, 193 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 2: although that's kind of dropped off, and then Brewers and 194 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 2: then Cubs. I actually have a bit of a soft 195 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:41,599 Speaker 2: spot for the Cubs. Yeah. 196 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 3: Did you see in the in the the skiing start 197 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 3: yesterday that Matt Olsen challenged the curveball No, And it 198 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 3: was against Paul Skiings and the replay revealed that it 199 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 3: was one tenth of an inch off the plate. 200 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 2: Wow, that's so. That's happened twice already in spring training. 201 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 3: Got overturned. He went underdraw a walk. It's crazy. I 202 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 3: think like the last nine batter challenges have been successful. 203 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 2: There was a game yesterday or two days ago, I 204 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 2: want to say, in which the it was the Red Sox. 205 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 2: It might have been the Red Sox and the Pirates 206 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 2: whatever it was, they the first five challenges of the game. 207 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 2: The umpire was wrong. I think the first pitch of 208 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 2: the first inning was a strike right down the middle 209 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 2: and he caught it a ball and it was four 210 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:31,839 Speaker 2: inches into the zone. So I love it. It's incredible that. 211 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 2: I mean, there are some umpires that are truly, truly 212 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 2: horrific and they are going to get exposed this year, 213 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 2: and I'm grateful for that. And I'm especially grateful because Tony, 214 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 2: we are one month away from opening Day. That's right, 215 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 2: one month away from opening Day. Do you or anyone 216 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:53,559 Speaker 2: you know have they won the lottery to get Opening Day? 217 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 2: Have its? Because I failed? Now? I mean, and the 218 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 2: secondary market because of who they are playing is outrageous. Yeah, 219 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 2: opponent doesn't help. Standing room only tickets well over one 220 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 2: hundred dollars. 221 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 3: Oh goodness, Can I can I give you a couple 222 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 3: more Paul Skins quotes that I just love? 223 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 2: Yeah? 224 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 3: Sorry, because again we were on the heels of Treek's 225 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 3: Scuball is only going to pitch once. Skeen says, whichever 226 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 3: game I'm pitching, it doesn't really matter. Winning gold is 227 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,440 Speaker 3: all that matters to me, I love that. Do you 228 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 3: get a metal trophy? 229 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 2: I don't know. 230 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 3: Skean's also talked about the other side. He's like, I 231 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:36,840 Speaker 3: get two two and a half weeks to pick other 232 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 3: guy's brains at the best pitchers in the league. That's 233 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 3: a good point, and Skeans went on to talk about 234 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 3: honoring service men and women by pitching in the World 235 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 3: Baseball Classic. He said, we're doing it to represent the 236 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 3: men and women fighting for us, along with many other 237 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 3: things that make this country the greatest country in the world. 238 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 3: And for me, that puts things into perspective. 239 00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 2: Well, of course skiens yes some time at Air Force 240 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 2: where he went to LSU Big. The way he's handling this, 241 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 2: I think he's got a lot of family history in 242 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 2: the Armed forces, if I'm not mistaken. So yeah, that's 243 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 2: a cool perspective. You don't see that all the time 244 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 2: one percent. 245 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:15,079 Speaker 3: How about what's going on in the NBA, And if 246 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 3: you don't follow the NBA, there's an interesting race that's 247 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 3: going to be going right now with the MVP. Right now, 248 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 3: Shay Guildriss Alexander is the favorite to win the MVP. 249 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 3: Nicola Jokic is a is the second favorite. And then 250 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 3: you can get anywhere from like plus three to plus 251 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 3: four hundred. Right now, Caid cutting him is the MVP. 252 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:37,080 Speaker 3: By the way, Detroit beats Oklahoma City last night. Detroit's 253 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 3: got their best record in the Eastern Conference. But I 254 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 3: saw this earlier today. If Shake Gildris Alexander misses six 255 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,840 Speaker 3: more games and he's been out with an injury, he 256 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 3: is not eligible based on games required to play to 257 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,840 Speaker 3: win MVP. The Joker can only miss one more game. 258 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,359 Speaker 3: So if you're looking to get in on some value 259 00:13:57,760 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 3: and you're assuming the Joker is gonna miss at least 260 00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,839 Speaker 3: one more game and SGA is not back yet, Kate 261 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 3: Cuttingham by default not only being a good player right now, 262 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 3: but by default could be a pretty good value bet 263 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 3: right now to win MVP. What do you make of 264 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 3: the twenty percent role in the NBA that you got 265 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 3: to play eighty percent of the games to be eligible. 266 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:18,920 Speaker 2: I like it. One of those things that Adam Sofer 267 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 2: has put on the docket to try to encourage more 268 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 2: people to play. And less what's the word we're looking for? 269 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 2: Load management? Less? Load management? Gotcha? Yeah? I like it. 270 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 2: I gotcha. I'm all for it too. I don't mind it. 271 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 3: I think it's a harder situation because they want to 272 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 3: deter load management. But the joker actually had a legit injury. 273 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 3: SGA actually had a legit injury. So it's hard on 274 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 3: that sense, but I understand the core of where it's at. 275 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 3: And also, Austin, we would be remiss today, and I'd 276 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 3: like to leave this as a talkbacker topic topic today, 277 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 3: and I'd like for you to do it in that 278 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 3: athlete's voice if you can, oh or at least try, 279 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 3: because fourteen years ago to the day, Austin, we were 280 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 3: gifted who do you Think you Are? 281 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 2: I Am? 282 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 3: By Pete Webber and it lives as I think one 283 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 3: of the best quotes in sports PBA bowler Pete Webber, 284 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 3: Who do you think you are?

Okay, baseball player. 338 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 3: He said, quote, I ain't an athlete, lady, I'm a 339 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:08,119 Speaker 3: baseball player. 340 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 2: Do you know who said that? I don't. 341 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:20,160 Speaker 3: That'd be John Crook John Cruk as he was burning 342 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 3: a heater and drinking beer during spring training. John Cruk 343 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:28,639 Speaker 3: is lady criticized and he said, I ain't an athlete, lady, 344 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:30,119 Speaker 3: I'm a baseball player. 345 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:36,080 Speaker 2: John Cruk a long time on ESPN with the Phillies 346 00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 2: on their TV broadcast team John Cruck. How about that? 347 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,200 Speaker 2: What a beast. He also had a hilarious moment with 348 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:45,640 Speaker 2: the big Unit Randy Johnson in an All Star Game 349 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 2: once because he was so afraid of ye Randy Johnson 350 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:50,399 Speaker 2: as a left hander. 351 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:51,679 Speaker 6: Uh. 352 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 3: The latest from the combine. Based on what I'm seeing, 353 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:57,880 Speaker 3: Ruben Bain's just going to drop to the second round. 354 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 2: Arms are too short. Kind of getting feeling, I mean 355 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 2: he's got short arms. He was asked about this yesterday 356 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:07,920 Speaker 2: and he said that the teams he's talked to doesn't 357 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:11,880 Speaker 2: seem to think that it's a big deal. I think 358 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 2: it was. Robert Salah of the Titans said that Reuben 359 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 2: Bain's tape is undeniable, but he does have extremely short arms. 360 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 2: Ye for a guy at his position. He came in 361 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 2: today measuring at thirty and seven eighths. That would be 362 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:37,200 Speaker 2: the second shortest arm length for a defensive end I 363 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:42,120 Speaker 2: think since they began measuring arms. Wow, the shortest belonged 364 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 2: to Nate Williams, the DN from Ohio State in twenty thirteen. 365 00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 2: He was thirty and five eights. Shout out to my 366 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,680 Speaker 2: cousin Ricky Elmore, who was drafted by the Packers back 367 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 2: in twenty eleven. He had thirty one inch arms. All right, Ricky. 368 00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 2: Now when you look at this, there are a couple 369 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:01,040 Speaker 2: of Bengals draft picks on this list short arms. Okay 370 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:04,880 Speaker 2: Wyatt Hubert who retired from football I think a year 371 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:08,239 Speaker 2: after his rookie year Kansas State, he had thirty one 372 00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:12,080 Speaker 2: inch arms, and Karl Lawson thirty one and a half 373 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 2: ooh had short arms and was drafted by the Bengals. 374 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:22,119 Speaker 2: And then Trey Hendrickson wasn't drafted by the Bengals but 375 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 2: was signed. He has thirty two inch little baby arm length. Now, 376 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 2: how about thirty two is quite a difference from thirty 377 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 2: and seven eighths like ruben Bain. 378 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,680 Speaker 3: How about yours truly was in the ninety eighth percentile 379 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 3: for quarterbacks in what arm length? Oh, thirty four and 380 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 3: a half? Okay, take that. 381 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,679 Speaker 2: You wouldn't the sheriff kind of walk around like your 382 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 2: hands are down by your knees. 383 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 3: I did see from Crazy I saw from Friend of 384 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 3: the Show Jordan Reid. He gave the measurements of both 385 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 3: Rvel Reese and Sonny styles. He described Sonny styles as 386 00:20:56,960 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 3: action figure build. Oh, very high. I think I'm watching 387 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 3: rvil recent Sonny styles today. What did you say your 388 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 3: arm length was thirty four and a half? I think 389 00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:07,119 Speaker 3: that's what Sonny styles is, isn't it. 390 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 2: How about that? By the way, Moegar chimed in. He 391 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 2: measured his arms, Oh, thirty and one quarter inches. Okay, 392 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 2: it's almost the exact same as ruben Bain. Yep. Now 393 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:22,440 Speaker 2: what I loved about this is mo tweeted this out 394 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 2: at Moegar and someone asked him, how's your get off? Oh? 395 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 2: He said that seems like a personal question. By the way, 396 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 2: special announcement with Mo that's coming up at two forty 397 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 2: five today. That's right. 398 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 3: Before one other thing on ruben Bain. I saw people 399 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 3: bring this up. Ruben Bain had a look at the podium. 400 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 3: I think some would say dishefveled, like didn't get his 401 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 3: haircut like before the combine, didn't shave, didn't get his haircut. 402 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,440 Speaker 2: I think he's just a football player. Yeah, Like he 403 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 2: talked about that like I just play football, no hobbies, 404 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:02,359 Speaker 2: no other hobbies, breathe. I kind of like that go 405 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 2: for the crazy man look. I said, he kind of 406 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,640 Speaker 2: looks like Will Smith's character in the Pursuit of Happiness. 407 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:10,359 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, kind of just like had 408 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 2: longer arms. But yeah, I get it. You got like 409 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 2: an afro that's like it's not quite an afro yet. 410 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 3: Yeap all over the looks like it looked like he 411 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:20,440 Speaker 3: like rolled out of bed, threw his stuff on, and 412 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:21,720 Speaker 3: was at the podium in two minutes. 413 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 2: And you know what, I think that's kind of endearing 414 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 2: to some people. I like that, like he's kind of crazy. 415 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 2: If we if we take what Zach Taylor said the 416 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:31,440 Speaker 2: other day, which is we are looking for guys that 417 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:35,920 Speaker 2: undeniably love football. Okay, Rubin Bain checks that box based 418 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 2: off of what he said, and Crow he's appeared, and. 419 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 3: Now we heard Zach and Duke and talk about you know, 420 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,680 Speaker 3: players that maybe they'll be they're they're looking for. Was 421 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,399 Speaker 3: there anything noteworthy in your opinion from Al Golden? Do 422 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:49,440 Speaker 3: we have any Al goldenaudio? 423 00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:52,399 Speaker 2: There was Al Golden met with the media for thirty 424 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 2: minutes shout out to Al Golden yesterday, and it was 425 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 2: all really pretty good and entertaining stuff. And we're obviously 426 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:02,359 Speaker 2: not gonna play the whole minutes, but I liked this 427 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 2: two minutes and twenty two seconds from Al Golden where 428 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 2: he talked about how much further along in the process 429 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 2: they are this year, and then was asked about the 430 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 2: scheme and or more Actually is more about how the 431 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 2: scheme developed towards the end of last year and how 432 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,720 Speaker 2: pieces can be added to that to maximize the scheme. 433 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 2: Here's two minutes of Al Golden. 434 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 7: Oh, we have to build This was the least amount 435 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 7: of pressure that I've that I've had in forever, and 436 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,680 Speaker 7: by a long margin, the least amount of you know, 437 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 7: line stunts. So we made a lot of progress with that, 438 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 7: and a lot of it was you know, Barrett and 439 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 7: the night settling in and being able to call some 440 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 7: of those on the field, because it's hard to call 441 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 7: lin stunts just as a as a as a pre 442 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 7: snap call, it really is, because you're calling it in 443 00:23:57,119 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 7: your mind, you're envisioning one thing. But well, you know, 444 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 7: if the wys off in the and the tight tailbacks 445 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 7: over there, well, you know what, that's not a great 446 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:06,760 Speaker 7: stunt against it. So those need to be called on 447 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,440 Speaker 7: the grass. And I think we're gonna make such a 448 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 7: big uh And we made a lot of progress at 449 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 7: the end of last year with that. Those guys settled 450 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 7: in nicely for us, and again that's my fault. We 451 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,399 Speaker 7: asked them to do more than we should have early on. 452 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:24,439 Speaker 7: Those guys responded and we made progress there and hopefully 453 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:25,879 Speaker 7: there's a nice starting point for us. 454 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:28,920 Speaker 2: But we have to have a good offseason. You know, 455 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:30,160 Speaker 2: we have to have a good off season. 456 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:33,359 Speaker 7: We need we need everybody here and and focused in 457 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:35,600 Speaker 7: and we need to be really clean and sharp. 458 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 2: You know, coming out of June. 459 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 8: Would you like to have one of those slot safety 460 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:44,879 Speaker 8: star types that would unlock some where there? 461 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:46,680 Speaker 2: It is the draft of free agency, though, Yeah, who 462 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 2: wouldn't you know what I mean. 463 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,159 Speaker 7: Like, again, I'm a defensive coordinator, so I like toys, 464 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:53,560 Speaker 7: you know what I mean, Like, I mean, who wouldn't 465 00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 7: want to have somebody that's again, you need force multipliers, right, 466 00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 7: I mean, that's what you need, right, you need you 467 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,360 Speaker 7: need somebody in the defensive van room that can play 468 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 7: outside backer. 469 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 2: You need. 470 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:06,119 Speaker 7: You know, you need linebackers that can play on and 471 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 7: off the line of scrimmage. You need a like you're saying, 472 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 7: you need that star or Nickel, whatever you want to 473 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:15,160 Speaker 7: call them. You know, he's either got to come from 474 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 7: the corner room or the safety room. And and if 475 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 7: the guy can do both, well, man, you've got something. 476 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 7: And so yeah, we're looking for versatility. I love versatility 477 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:29,159 Speaker 7: in our in our system, in our program, and especially 478 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 7: if you can do it without substitution. That's what makes 479 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 7: you dangerous. And you know, we'll see you know where 480 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 7: we go here, uh in terms of identifying those things. 481 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,880 Speaker 7: But you have complete faith in in uh In Zach 482 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:43,920 Speaker 7: and Duke and what we're going to acquire here in 483 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 7: the next you know, next month and then obviously three months. 484 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 3: All right, the term force multiplier, all right, someone that's 485 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 3: going to help the effectiveness of the group and be 486 00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 3: able to do so in multiple facets. I think that's 487 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 3: fascinating and really good stuff there from Al Golden. But 488 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 3: the idea that I think sticks with me is the 489 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:10,119 Speaker 3: ability to have a player on the field and not 490 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:12,159 Speaker 3: have to sub and that player can be used in 491 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 3: multiple ways, right if that player needs to drop in coverage, 492 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:17,879 Speaker 3: if that player needs to play the run, if that 493 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 3: player needs to get after the quarterback, if they need 494 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 3: to line up as a linebacker, if they need to 495 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 3: line up and rush the passer. 496 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 2: That's a force multiplayer. 497 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 3: The value of a player like that is incredible, and 498 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 3: you can find those players at every level. D lineman 499 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 3: that can drop, a linebacker that can play up, a 500 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 3: safety that can drop down into the box and apply pressure. 501 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 3: Those are the types of players that I think can 502 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 3: be a game changer for a defense. I think you 503 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 3: view some of the players in the top ten as that. 504 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,159 Speaker 3: But also the ability to just kind of feel like 505 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 3: you can take the restraints off a little bit if 506 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:55,440 Speaker 3: you're oult Golden and open up the playbook in year two. 507 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 3: I think that's a really good insight from him in 508 00:26:59,240 --> 00:26:59,959 Speaker 3: a brief amount of time. 509 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, you'd think of like a nick emon warri. 510 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 2: I think that might have been the direction Charlie was 511 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:09,160 Speaker 2: coming from with that question. And you know, it obviously 512 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 2: makes sense. It's safety, but he also talked about it 513 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,320 Speaker 2: and you mentioned it as well. Without having to sub 514 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 2: that can make you a dangerous defense. Yep. How many 515 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:17,880 Speaker 2: time you're able to do that? Huge? 516 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:20,240 Speaker 3: How many times we talked about twelve personnel last year 517 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:23,160 Speaker 3: and different personnel groupings where you force the defense's hand. 518 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:25,159 Speaker 3: How are you gonna play it? You're gonna are you 519 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 3: gonna sub or are you going to stay with with 520 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 3: heavy personnel? Like, if you've got force multiplier, it doesn't matter, 521 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:32,400 Speaker 3: You're good either way. 522 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 2: And there was there was one team who really went 523 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 2: opposite of the rest of the group, and that was 524 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 2: the Seattle Seahawks. Yes, with the way that they would 525 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 2: approach those twelve and thirteen personnel groupings because they had 526 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 2: that flexibility. By the way, the official Google definition of 527 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 2: a force multiplier oh is a factor, tool or tactic 528 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 2: that significantly increases the effectiveness, combat power, or productivity of 529 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:04,240 Speaker 2: a person or group without necessarily increasing its size. Okay, 530 00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 2: so there you go. And by the way, Duke Tobin 531 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:10,160 Speaker 2: has said this, Zach Taylor has said this, now Al 532 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 2: Golden has said this. All three of those guys kind 533 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:17,880 Speaker 2: of unprompted in their own way dropped force multiplier ooh 534 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 2: on the media in these conversations. We are continuing to 535 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 2: now kind of clarify. 536 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 3: The vision for the Bengals this offseason, and I like 537 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 3: the alignment at least in talking that they all have. 538 00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 3: By the way, a couple of other things from the 539 00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:35,200 Speaker 3: combine here players that we've talked about to the Bengals. 540 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,680 Speaker 3: Caleb Downs was asked about the teams he has met with. 541 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:39,480 Speaker 3: He said, quote, I met with a lot of teams. 542 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 3: I'm not going into individuals. Okay, all right, I don't 543 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 3: mind that. 544 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 9: Sure. 545 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 3: And this from Jermad McCoy, the Tennessee corner that tore 546 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 3: his ACL and missed all last season, he's not going 547 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:54,560 Speaker 3: to work out at the Combine because he said, quote, 548 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 3: my body doesn't feel ready. Oh, Austin, he tore his 549 00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 3: ACL four hundred and fifty days ago. That to me 550 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 3: would be a little concerning. 551 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree. 552 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 3: Still not go ahead and take him off the board. 553 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 3: Take him off the board right now. I'm good with that. 554 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:11,479 Speaker 2: Go ahead and take him off the ward. Mad McCoy 555 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:15,120 Speaker 2: officially off often and eyes big board. Peter Woods from 556 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 2: Clemson will not work out today at the Combine. Rubin 557 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 2: Bain also not working out. Peter Woods will go full 558 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 2: at the Clemson Pro Day, which is coming up on 559 00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:28,000 Speaker 2: March the twelfth, that is the day after free agency begins, 560 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 2: but on field workouts begins today for the other defensive 561 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 2: linemen and linebackers. Rvel Reese is doing everything yep at 562 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 2: the Combine. Shout out to him, force multiplier. He would 563 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 2: be a force multiplier without any shadow of a day, 564 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 2: without a doubt he drops. Good Lord. 565 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 3: We'll keep you updated with latest happenings at the NFL Combine. 566 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 3: Also some quarterback projections that came out yesterday. And there's 567 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:54,960 Speaker 3: a couple names on this list that would be with 568 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 3: new teams that I think would be an interesting fit. 569 00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,160 Speaker 3: Let's talk about a couple of those. One of them 570 00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 3: is not Joe Burrow. We know where Joe Burrow is 571 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,320 Speaker 3: and what he's capable of, but perhaps the MAFC North 572 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 3: teams as well. We'll dive into that next. On the 573 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:09,440 Speaker 3: Home of the Bengals ESPN fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports Station 574 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 3: are you running for office. 575 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 1: And Sincy three sixty on ESPN fifteen thirty. 576 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:23,960 Speaker 2: Ton, it looks like there's a new quarterback on the market. Oh, 577 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 2: a little bit of NFL breaking news during the break. 578 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 2: The Indianapolis Colts and quarterback Anthony Richardson have agreed in 579 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 2: a meeting this morning that a fresh start would be 580 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:40,400 Speaker 2: beneficial for both. Okay, the two sides will look to 581 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 2: find a trade partner for the twenty twenty three number 582 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 2: four overall pick, Anthony Richardson still just twenty three years old. 583 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,240 Speaker 3: You know what I think is interesting is that would 584 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 3: be like, if I'm a quarterback needy team that's the 585 00:30:56,440 --> 00:31:01,960 Speaker 3: ultimate by low opportunity, sure, huge upside, a lot of 586 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 3: athleticism didn't pan out in Indy, I would be willing 587 00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:07,400 Speaker 3: to take a shot. If I was a team that 588 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 3: is in need of a quarterback, I would look at 589 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 3: Anthony Richardson Miami Dolphins. 590 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:11,960 Speaker 9: Sure. 591 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 2: I also saw a report that Derek Carr might not 592 00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 2: be done. I saw that as well. Now, what's interesting injury. 593 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 3: ESPN kind of predicted their quarterbacks for next year, and 594 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:26,040 Speaker 3: there's a lot of quarterbacks we know where they're going 595 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 3: to be the starter at but there's some interesting names 596 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 3: on this list. The Cleveland Browns. I had not thought about. 597 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:41,240 Speaker 3: This was Seth Water ESPN dot com. He predicts the 598 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 3: twenty twenty six starter for the Cleveland Browns to be 599 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 3: Kyler Murray. What would you make of Kyler Murray as 600 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:48,840 Speaker 3: a Brown? 601 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:49,040 Speaker 10: Like? 602 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 2: Are you all? 603 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 3: Are you done with Kyler Murray in his time in 604 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:56,720 Speaker 3: Arizona Because when he was playing well, there's very few 605 00:31:56,800 --> 00:32:00,160 Speaker 3: that can match his skill set in the NFL it 606 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 3: went south in a hurry in Arizona. Would Kyler Murray 607 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 3: be an upgrade for the Cleveland. 608 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 2: Browns, Yes, because it's hard to not upgrade from what 609 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 2: they had in their position. And I think Todd Monkin 610 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 2: and his style of offense and his ability to kind 611 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 2: of build around a unique skill set. I'm not saying 612 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson is Kyler Murray, but they're cut from the 613 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 2: same cloth in terms of that rare athleticism, So I 614 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 2: think that would make sense. 615 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, other names on this list. The Falcons would would 616 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 3: have Michael Pennox. The Arizona Cardinals, Jacoby Brissett would be 617 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 3: the starter. They're trying to get Arch Manning. Now there 618 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 3: are two teams that you don't really know if the 619 00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 3: quarterback will be healthy to start the year. Kansas City 620 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 3: and Indy with what Daniel Jones went through, they have 621 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 3: Kansas City starting until Mahomes comes back, Marcus Mariota and 622 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 3: Indy starting. Gardner minshew, I think I have a didn't 623 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:58,960 Speaker 3: he tear his acl He tore his a month? Gardner 624 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 3: tore his a month after Mahomes might be ready to go. 625 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 3: I have a I think I have a skyline bet 626 00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 3: with Drew Wester Heidi that Patrick Mahomes will start the 627 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 3: regular season. 628 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 2: Okay, I could see that. Yeah. By the way, do 629 00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 2: they have Malik Willis on there anymore? 630 00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:12,720 Speaker 4: So? 631 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:16,720 Speaker 2: They have Malik Willis predicted to the Dolphins now. I 632 00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 2: saw Jordan Schultz reporting this morning that a lot of 633 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 2: teams are interested in Malik Willis, and the teams that 634 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 2: he's spoken to in Indianapolis believe him getting at least 635 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:33,760 Speaker 2: thirty million a year is a foe gone conclusion. Malik 636 00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 2: Willis with the Green Bay Packers. 637 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 3: I saw he's got the Jets as a spot for 638 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 3: Spencer Rattler to be a starter. Would you, if you're 639 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:44,880 Speaker 3: the Jets, go to the Rattler or would you take 640 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:48,479 Speaker 3: a chance on Anthony Richardson, I would go to rattler. 641 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:51,960 Speaker 2: Okay, I've for a very long time said that I 642 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,480 Speaker 2: wouldn't walk across the street to see Anthony Richardson play. 643 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:56,600 Speaker 3: I think he stinks what else is interesting to me? 644 00:33:56,720 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 3: Two things from dan Orlowsky today. One he said that 645 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:03,000 Speaker 3: through the first five games he has studied of each 646 00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:05,120 Speaker 3: or maybe eight games him, sorry, eight games he studied 647 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:07,760 Speaker 3: of each. He said Ty Simpson's film is way better 648 00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 3: than Mendozas. 649 00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:14,480 Speaker 2: You know, I think a lot of people probably don't 650 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:20,239 Speaker 2: disagree with that. Like number one, the level of competition 651 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:25,440 Speaker 2: at times for Indiana, especially early in the season, I 652 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 2: get that. I think if you look at his tape 653 00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,879 Speaker 2: against Ohio State, that's probably what matters and carries more weight. 654 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 2: I look at his tape in the Big Ten Championship 655 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:35,400 Speaker 2: in the playoff, Yeah, that's what I'm saying, like against 656 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:40,879 Speaker 2: those big time teams. So I don't I think there's 657 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:45,520 Speaker 2: not a ton there athletically from Fernando Mendoza. I don't 658 00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,960 Speaker 2: know that he just is. He just blows you off 659 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:52,279 Speaker 2: the screen with his physical traits. But I think he's 660 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:58,080 Speaker 2: fundamentally sound and can operate an offense, Like you make 661 00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:02,600 Speaker 2: the joke of Kirk Cousins because maybe their personalities are similar, 662 00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 2: but I think them as football players are similar as well. 663 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 2: They're not going to run around like crazy, They're not 664 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 2: crazy athletes. But I think you know, with the right 665 00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:14,080 Speaker 2: system and the right people, Banana Mendoza can be a 666 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:16,399 Speaker 2: good NFL quarterback. I don't know that anybody is looking 667 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 2: at that guy thinking this is the next Tom Brady, 668 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,719 Speaker 2: this is the next Peyton Manning one who was it? 669 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:22,239 Speaker 2: Last week? 670 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 3: We did a the comparison earlier in the week and 671 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 3: somebody said Mendoza and compared him. 672 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:30,839 Speaker 2: To Joe Burrow. Yeah, and that was I think that's 673 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:34,680 Speaker 2: I think that's like a fundamentals thing, like when it 674 00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 2: comes to I think Joe Burrow is the most fundamentally 675 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 2: sound quarterback in the NFL, and to you would be 676 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:44,319 Speaker 2: able to answer this better and and break this down 677 00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:47,960 Speaker 2: better than just about anybody. But from the ground up, 678 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:52,719 Speaker 2: feet work, footwork, legs, motion, all of it, I think 679 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 2: Burrow's the gold standard in the NFL. And I think 680 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 2: Mendoza has a good head start on that. 681 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:00,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think he's a guy you want to 682 00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:02,960 Speaker 3: talk about like nailing the interviews, he just says all 683 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:05,440 Speaker 3: the right things. Sure, Like I think he will nail 684 00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:08,520 Speaker 3: his time in Indianapolis at the combine. The other one 685 00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:12,120 Speaker 3: I thought was interesting that Orlowsky brought up today. He 686 00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:15,520 Speaker 3: said that the Vikings should go all in to get 687 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:16,920 Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers to Minnesota. 688 00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:18,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 689 00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:22,799 Speaker 3: I agree, where is a What is the more desirable 690 00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 3: team if you're Aaron Rodgers? The Pittsburgh Steelers, who I 691 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:28,480 Speaker 3: saw a report coming out of the Combine that they 692 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:31,720 Speaker 3: are in talks with Jacksonville about Brian Thomas junior. 693 00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:32,880 Speaker 2: Is it. 694 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 3: Minnesota or is it Pittsburgh. If you're a quarterback, you're like, 695 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:40,560 Speaker 3: all right, which team is set up to win? 696 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:40,879 Speaker 11: Now? 697 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,560 Speaker 3: I'm assuming if Rogers does it, it's gonna be one 698 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:47,680 Speaker 3: more year. Is that Minnesota with Jordan Addison and Justin 699 00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:52,360 Speaker 3: Jefferson and Aaron Jones Or is that in Pittsburgh? Hopkinson too, Yeah, Hockinson, 700 00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:55,440 Speaker 3: it feels like Minnesota, especially being indoors at home. 701 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:57,920 Speaker 2: Yeah. And he got Kevin O'Connell. Yeah, And you know, 702 00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 2: I think I kind of like that. Detroit's deef has 703 00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:04,440 Speaker 2: some turnover. Green Bay has some turnover, especially their a 704 00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:08,960 Speaker 2: defensive coordinator is gone in Jeff Hafley. Chicago has some turnover. 705 00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 2: We talked about Tremaine Edmonds. I mean every team has turnover. 706 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:14,600 Speaker 2: I get it. That's a division that feels winnable. I 707 00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:17,759 Speaker 2: do think there's something to the idea of beating the 708 00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:21,239 Speaker 2: Packers that Aaron Rodgers would like. I don't know if he. 709 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:25,560 Speaker 2: I think some said that some of the assistant coaches 710 00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:30,160 Speaker 2: that McCarthy has hired, Aaron Rodgers doesn't necessarily see eye 711 00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:32,960 Speaker 2: to eye with. And oh, by the way, Kevin O'Connell, 712 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 2: who operates this offense that Aaron could absolutely operate as 713 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:41,400 Speaker 2: elite communicator, have been an elite ability to develop quarterbacks, 714 00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:44,200 Speaker 2: except for JJ McCarthy because he's horrible. 715 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:44,600 Speaker 12: But like. 716 00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:48,279 Speaker 2: I've said from the beginning, that makes sense. I heard 717 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 2: someone say this, porting Malik Willis would. 718 00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:52,719 Speaker 3: Make sense in Minnesota if you were Minnesota and you 719 00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:54,880 Speaker 3: go to the veteran route, because maybe you still, for 720 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:57,319 Speaker 3: whatever reason, believe in JJ McCarthy. But it's not going 721 00:37:57,400 --> 00:38:02,120 Speaker 3: to be this year. Does Aaron Rodgers or Kirk Cousins 722 00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:05,520 Speaker 3: do more for you at this point in their careers? 723 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 2: Hmmm? Because can I say Joe Flacco, sure? I mean, 724 00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 2: I almost feel like that makes more sense, yeah, than 725 00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:19,200 Speaker 2: either of those two guys. But I guess I would 726 00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:23,000 Speaker 2: lean Rogers just because he played last year and was 727 00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:26,520 Speaker 2: he was fine, but he just keeps getting banged up too. 728 00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:28,760 Speaker 2: It's the Risks or the wag or whatever. 729 00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:31,360 Speaker 3: Which team between the Vikings and the Steelers. Do you 730 00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:32,920 Speaker 3: think have more force multipliers? 731 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:38,440 Speaker 2: Uh? Minnesota? Okay, all right, Kevin O'Connell's a force multiplayer. Okay, 732 00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:42,120 Speaker 2: you don't think they have those in Pittsburgh. No, you 733 00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:44,359 Speaker 2: don't think Mike McCarthy is a force multiplier. I think 734 00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:46,880 Speaker 2: he is fair enough. I think he can be. 735 00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:49,839 Speaker 3: We need to break I like Mike McCarthy. We need 736 00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:52,440 Speaker 3: to wrap up our number one. We'll do so when 737 00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:55,920 Speaker 3: we get back. John Shearon, a is E Sports, will 738 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,600 Speaker 3: join us at one o'clock as well.

It is one million in liquidated damages, 757 00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:23,920 Speaker 3: oh which the school said Sworsby was contractually obligated to 758 00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:32,080 Speaker 3: pay within thirty days of transferring. In the complaint, the 759 00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:37,480 Speaker 3: uh UC attorneys and said that Swersby was advised to 760 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 3: refuse paying the university by his agency in anything. It 761 00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:44,640 Speaker 3: said this in a statement from the University of Cincinnati 762 00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:49,080 Speaker 3: in his lucrative NIL agreement with Cincinnati athletics. Brendan Soorsby 763 00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:53,120 Speaker 3: committed to stay and play for two seasons as a 764 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:57,120 Speaker 3: Proud Bearcat representative. He also agreed that if he left 765 00:40:57,120 --> 00:40:59,960 Speaker 3: the university before that time, he would pay the university 766 00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:05,200 Speaker 3: a specific amount for the substantial harm that this breach 767 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:10,600 Speaker 3: would cause. That to me, Austin is pretty cut and dry. 768 00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:16,360 Speaker 3: If you signed that agreement. What legs do Sworsby and 769 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:19,759 Speaker 3: his legal team have to stand on here? I don't 770 00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:20,360 Speaker 3: really know. 771 00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:25,200 Speaker 2: I mean their statement basically says, yeah, they you see, 772 00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:27,920 Speaker 2: paid him eight hundred and seventy five thousand dollars for 773 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:30,320 Speaker 2: this revenue share structure, and why would they try to 774 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:33,759 Speaker 2: recover from that because he was here? But you see 775 00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:36,800 Speaker 2: saying well it was a two year deal, right, I 776 00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:39,520 Speaker 2: just so because you left after the first year, you 777 00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:43,440 Speaker 2: don't get to keep that money, right, Yeah, it doesn't 778 00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:47,920 Speaker 2: seem like he's Their statement basically says, the money the 779 00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:50,839 Speaker 2: university seeks to recover from Soresby is nothing more than 780 00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:54,560 Speaker 2: an ad and lawful penalty under Ohio law. Because you 781 00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:57,000 Speaker 2: see has chosen to pursue this course of action, Brendan 782 00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:00,000 Speaker 2: will aggressively defend the lawsuit, pursue any and all damage 783 00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:02,480 Speaker 2: he encourages as a result of It doesn't feel like 784 00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:06,279 Speaker 2: this is in favor of Swersby right, Like I don't 785 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:08,000 Speaker 2: feel like it's gonna lean in that direction. 786 00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:12,040 Speaker 3: The only this is Soarsby's agency. This this was in 787 00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:14,600 Speaker 3: the time to the twenty twenty five season. He generated 788 00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:18,160 Speaker 3: millions in value for the program. Attempting to recover those 789 00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:20,560 Speaker 3: funds now sends the wrong message to current future student 790 00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:24,120 Speaker 3: athletes and risk damaging the long term credibility of UC football. 791 00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:27,839 Speaker 3: This is further disappointment he done that. This is further 792 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:31,239 Speaker 3: disappointing given that Brennan parted ways with U see and 793 00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:33,800 Speaker 3: what was a meech mutually agreed manner, the money the 794 00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:36,920 Speaker 3: university seeks to recover is nothing more than an unlawful. 795 00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 2: Penalty mutually agreeable manner. Yeah, that I think you're probably 796 00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 2: the buzzwords. You know that it's gonna have to find 797 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:50,800 Speaker 2: how this happens. Like was there You got to know 798 00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:53,200 Speaker 2: the language of the contract. I guess that basically says 799 00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:56,239 Speaker 2: if you leave, we get this money. Correct, And if 800 00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:58,920 Speaker 2: he signed that, then he screwed. I mean, you know 801 00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:01,360 Speaker 2: we've seen this before or who was it? The quarterback 802 00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:03,719 Speaker 2: from Washington well, the duke quarterback, well, he took him 803 00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:07,560 Speaker 2: to Courton one right, But the Desmond Williams, the guy 804 00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:11,480 Speaker 2: from Washington, signs a deal and then like two weeks later, 805 00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:15,000 Speaker 2: it's like, I'm just kidding, I'm leaving and they're like, no, 806 00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:17,680 Speaker 2: you aren't correct. You signed this deal. This is an 807 00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:20,839 Speaker 2: ironclad deal. You are not getting out of this now. 808 00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:24,920 Speaker 2: I would assume that the Bearcats are smart enough to 809 00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:30,040 Speaker 2: know when putting this contract together that he's probably gonna 810 00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:32,480 Speaker 2: try to leave, and if he does, that's probably why 811 00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 2: this exists. 812 00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:36,840 Speaker 3: Correct, And like you said, if he signed the contract, 813 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:38,200 Speaker 3: that's legally binding. 814 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:39,399 Speaker 2: Now. 815 00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:41,600 Speaker 3: Some would argue that he didn't play the full season, 816 00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:44,240 Speaker 3: that he stopped playing as the month of November started. 817 00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:48,200 Speaker 3: Some argue he didn't play in the bowl game. 818 00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:51,880 Speaker 8: But this is. 819 00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:57,240 Speaker 3: In the world of nil, where it feels like players 820 00:43:57,280 --> 00:43:59,640 Speaker 3: have all the power. This is a way for the 821 00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:02,840 Speaker 3: university to try to have some power. Say, Okay, we 822 00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 3: are willing to pay you a lot of money, but 823 00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:09,960 Speaker 3: but you were contractually obligated to finish your time here 824 00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:13,160 Speaker 3: and if not, then you pay us the fee. Now, 825 00:44:13,719 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 3: could someone at Texas Tech pony up and pay that 826 00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:19,160 Speaker 3: one million dollars probably, But I don't have a problem 827 00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:21,640 Speaker 3: here Austin with what you see is doing and going 828 00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:25,160 Speaker 3: after money that they are owed. No million dollars, million dollars, 829 00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:28,160 Speaker 3: however you cut it. You're rowed that the contract was 830 00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:30,640 Speaker 3: breached and get you another player, as you're saying, can 831 00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:32,240 Speaker 3: make you, get you a couple of really good players. 832 00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:35,719 Speaker 2: Correct. Correct, So we'll see how it plays out. 833 00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:38,040 Speaker 3: We'll see what Kegan Nickison has to say about it, 834 00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:41,560 Speaker 3: but first from it his E Sports covering the Bengals. 835 00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:44,239 Speaker 3: John Sheeran is next on this. I wonder if he 836 00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:47,960 Speaker 3: has thoughts on this. National Chili Dack on ESPN fifteen 837 00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:51,200 Speaker 3: thirty Cincinnati Sports Station, Cincinnati. 838 00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:53,000 Speaker 13: Make us the number one pre st on your car 839 00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:55,919 Speaker 13: radio and on the free, new and improved iHeartRadio app. 840 00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:59,480 Speaker 13: Free never sounded so good, ESPN fifteen thirty. 841 00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:00,920 Speaker 2: Are You're running for office? 842 00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:07,160 Speaker 1: And it's Tony Pike Cincy three sixty about Cincinnati from Cincinnati. 843 00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:12,080 Speaker 1: This is ESPN fifteen thirty, Cincinnati Sports Station. 844 00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:20,719 Speaker 3: It's our two.

We had the opportunity on Thursdays during 846 00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:27,960 Speaker 3: the NFL season to talk to our guy John Sheeran 847 00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:30,320 Speaker 3: covering the Cincinnati Bengals from made his e Sports and 848 00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:33,840 Speaker 3: with all the happenings going on around the NFL Combine 849 00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:37,080 Speaker 3: and and what the Bengals should or may look to 850 00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:39,680 Speaker 3: do in the upcoming NFL Draft, we thought a good 851 00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:42,160 Speaker 3: time to catch up with John, who is kind enough 852 00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:44,319 Speaker 3: to join us right now. 853 00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:47,319 Speaker 2: John, what's going on? How are you doing well? 854 00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:47,720 Speaker 5: Tony? 855 00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:49,600 Speaker 8: We just got the actual Olympics. Now we got the 856 00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:51,560 Speaker 8: under underwear Olympics. Now it's a good week. 857 00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:54,480 Speaker 3: The Underwear Olympics is a good way to put it. 858 00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:57,279 Speaker 3: Before we dive in, Austin said this before the break, 859 00:45:57,320 --> 00:45:59,280 Speaker 3: I have to get your your thoughts as a fellow 860 00:45:59,680 --> 00:46:01,760 Speaker 3: bear Kat fan, what do you make of the situation 861 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:05,440 Speaker 3: unfolding with Brendan Soresby in the University of Cincinnati and 862 00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:06,960 Speaker 3: recouping a million dollars? 863 00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:11,160 Speaker 8: I don't really share my thoughts on anil and stuff 864 00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:13,759 Speaker 8: like that, but it is like every time we see 865 00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:15,880 Speaker 8: a story like this, it just feels like another pillar 866 00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:19,680 Speaker 8: of the college sports world that we know breaking down, 867 00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:22,200 Speaker 8: and it just seems like this is inevitably going to 868 00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:25,400 Speaker 8: lead to something that we've really never really experienced for 869 00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:27,440 Speaker 8: and it just seems like all these you know, like 870 00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:30,839 Speaker 8: legalities and lawsuits and things like, it's just all leading 871 00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:33,040 Speaker 8: to something a lot larger and at the end of 872 00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:34,720 Speaker 8: the day, like a million dollars and a million dollars 873 00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:37,480 Speaker 8: for some institutions. For some players it's not much, but 874 00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:40,040 Speaker 8: for some it's a lot. And yeah, yeah, like it's 875 00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:42,120 Speaker 8: never good to see this sort of thing happen, But 876 00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:44,240 Speaker 8: I'm just I just kind of want to just send 877 00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:47,640 Speaker 8: the part where all this become unrecognizable. We just kind 878 00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:49,480 Speaker 8: of moved to to the point where we probably should 879 00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:50,920 Speaker 8: and that's just kind of where my head is at 880 00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:51,439 Speaker 8: at this point. 881 00:46:52,600 --> 00:46:55,480 Speaker 3: I have to ask John because I want to get 882 00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:58,600 Speaker 3: into prospects and the Combine and the draft itself. But 883 00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:01,680 Speaker 3: we've had the opportunity to hear from Duke Tobin, we 884 00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:04,960 Speaker 3: heard from Zach Taylor, we've heard from the coordinators. Anything 885 00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:07,799 Speaker 3: that they said that that caused you to take note 886 00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:10,040 Speaker 3: or maybe that you questioned what they had to say 887 00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:11,680 Speaker 3: at their time at the combine. 888 00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:16,239 Speaker 8: Yeah, it's been We've heard from Duke a couple of 889 00:47:16,239 --> 00:47:19,040 Speaker 8: times now the saw season, which is one more than 890 00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:21,240 Speaker 8: where we usually are at this point in the offseason, 891 00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:23,759 Speaker 8: and he's made it very clear that there will be 892 00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:26,720 Speaker 8: an emphasis to bolster this pass rush for the defensive 893 00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:29,480 Speaker 8: line specifically. We know that that's a huge weakness on 894 00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:32,520 Speaker 8: the team, and we also know that in free agency 895 00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:34,920 Speaker 8: there is a lot of edge rusher that will be 896 00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:37,760 Speaker 8: available and the market will be saturated, and it should 897 00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:40,279 Speaker 8: be a position where the Bengals should find someone that 898 00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:43,240 Speaker 8: they want for a price that they that they find desirable. 899 00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:46,080 Speaker 8: It may not be the same at defensive tackle, which 900 00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:48,440 Speaker 8: is why I thought it was also interesting when Duke 901 00:47:48,520 --> 00:47:51,160 Speaker 8: left the podium and talked to local Bengals beat writers 902 00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:53,879 Speaker 8: that we all know respect he talks about bj Hill 903 00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:56,800 Speaker 8: and Chris Shank and is now bullish on them. He was, 904 00:47:56,920 --> 00:47:58,680 Speaker 8: and that was kind of interesting to me, But I 905 00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:00,759 Speaker 8: kind of took it as yeah, like they recognize that 906 00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:03,480 Speaker 8: this free agent class may not be very strong at 907 00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:05,920 Speaker 8: the defensive tackle spot, but it was no surprise to 908 00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:08,759 Speaker 8: see them meet with the top defensive tackle prospects at 909 00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:09,760 Speaker 8: the combine. 910 00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:10,719 Speaker 2: And they may look for answers there. 911 00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:13,640 Speaker 8: So I'm really interested to see how they address the 912 00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:17,120 Speaker 8: defensive line because Duke Tobin doesn't really say anything definitively 913 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:18,920 Speaker 8: when he talks in these spaces, but he's made it 914 00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:21,920 Speaker 8: very clear that he wants a deep, incompetent pass rushing 915 00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:24,320 Speaker 8: years to bolster the defense. And the way to do 916 00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:27,040 Speaker 8: that is, you know, to utilize both ratescy and the draft. 917 00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:29,080 Speaker 8: So I'm interested to see how they actually end up 918 00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:29,360 Speaker 8: doing that. 919 00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:32,560 Speaker 2: Is there a defensive tackle in this class that you 920 00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:36,880 Speaker 2: can justify taking with the tenth overall pick right now? 921 00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:39,879 Speaker 8: Like, so long as Peter Woods tests at his pro deay, 922 00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:41,880 Speaker 8: He's not going to test with the Combine for whatever reason, 923 00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:44,480 Speaker 8: but if he tests well at his pro day, I 924 00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:47,560 Speaker 8: would probably look to consider him there for sure, just 925 00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:49,480 Speaker 8: because of the player that he was in the first 926 00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:51,680 Speaker 8: couple of years of Clemson. A lot of stuff happened 927 00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:53,880 Speaker 8: there in this past year. He was kind of misused, 928 00:48:54,080 --> 00:48:56,080 Speaker 8: The defense around him kind of fell apart, and I 929 00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:58,120 Speaker 8: think a lot of people have questions about, you know, 930 00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:00,640 Speaker 8: how he kind of responded and why the perduction dropped, 931 00:49:00,680 --> 00:49:02,800 Speaker 8: and that's why, you know, so many teams wanted to 932 00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:05,000 Speaker 8: talk to him at the Combine this week, and it 933 00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:06,480 Speaker 8: is a shame that he's going to test in the 934 00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:09,840 Speaker 8: very standardized setting and a lot of that data is 935 00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:12,440 Speaker 8: very useful for his position specifically, and there are some 936 00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:14,719 Speaker 8: size concerns with him as well, but I really liked 937 00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:16,840 Speaker 8: what I saw from him as another classman. There's a 938 00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:18,640 Speaker 8: reason why he was labeled as the top ten pick 939 00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:21,000 Speaker 8: entering this past season, and I don't think that player 940 00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:23,040 Speaker 8: necessarily went away. He's only twenty one years old, so 941 00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:25,840 Speaker 8: other than him, though, it's not a very promising class. 942 00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:28,640 Speaker 8: I'm not in on Caleb Thanks, I'd be with that pick. 943 00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:30,879 Speaker 8: I think the production was just very consistent. He missed 944 00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:32,920 Speaker 8: all of last season as well, so it's definitely not 945 00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:35,480 Speaker 8: a very top heavy class. But if would test like 946 00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:38,080 Speaker 8: a decent or good athlete, I would feel comfortable with 947 00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:38,359 Speaker 8: that pick. 948 00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:39,680 Speaker 2: At this point, I want to go. 949 00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:42,439 Speaker 3: Back one more time to Duke Tobin, who spent time 950 00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:46,600 Speaker 3: talking about you know with with the local media of 951 00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:49,440 Speaker 3: you know, we have work to do and we need 952 00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:51,279 Speaker 3: to get to certain points. But he also doubled down 953 00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:53,319 Speaker 3: that he thinks this team can can win a Super 954 00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:55,839 Speaker 3: Bowl right now, and a lot of people also kind 955 00:49:55,840 --> 00:49:59,080 Speaker 3: of had reactions to his quote of we're always all 956 00:49:59,239 --> 00:50:02,560 Speaker 3: in with the Cincinnati Bengals. Did you take anything away 957 00:50:02,640 --> 00:50:07,000 Speaker 3: from the all in comments from Duke Tobin not necessarily. 958 00:50:07,280 --> 00:50:09,800 Speaker 8: I think his definition of all in and our definition 959 00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:12,600 Speaker 8: of all in or two completely definitions. I think they 960 00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:15,880 Speaker 8: are always all in on their own process and how 961 00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:19,600 Speaker 8: they believe what they believe in terms of philosophy and 962 00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:23,520 Speaker 8: roster building and contractual principles and all that stuff, right, 963 00:50:23,560 --> 00:50:25,440 Speaker 8: And I think they're always going to give what they 964 00:50:25,560 --> 00:50:27,440 Speaker 8: deem their best effort for what they think is the 965 00:50:27,560 --> 00:50:30,319 Speaker 8: right thing to do. But clearly, in almost sixty years 966 00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:32,880 Speaker 8: of practice there, it's not not led to Super Bowl, right, 967 00:50:32,920 --> 00:50:35,400 Speaker 8: So you would think that some changes could be instituted there, 968 00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:37,480 Speaker 8: but we're not really seeing any of those changes on 969 00:50:37,520 --> 00:50:41,600 Speaker 8: the horizon. So I think it's like it's hail Mary 970 00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:45,560 Speaker 8: at best asking Duke Hobin to sacrifice guaranteed money or 971 00:50:45,680 --> 00:50:47,520 Speaker 8: you know, future draft picks for the sake of making 972 00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:50,479 Speaker 8: these aggressive moves that you feel comfortable would improve the roster. 973 00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:52,560 Speaker 8: But at the end of the day, the Bengals believe 974 00:50:52,600 --> 00:50:55,480 Speaker 8: what they believe in. It's just by attacking needs in 975 00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:58,040 Speaker 8: terms of volume, in terms of players and contracts that 976 00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:01,000 Speaker 8: they feel comfortable with. So going on in it doesn't 977 00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:02,839 Speaker 8: really move me because I know that Duke doesn't really 978 00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:04,200 Speaker 8: believe that the way the other gms do. 979 00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:08,080 Speaker 3: Everyone this time of the year has multiple mock drafts, 980 00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:11,040 Speaker 3: and we've gone through each mock draft on every Monday, 981 00:51:11,160 --> 00:51:14,480 Speaker 3: and we've seen it all, from Ruben Bain to Sunny 982 00:51:14,560 --> 00:51:18,640 Speaker 3: Styles to Caleb Downs. We've seen the Bengals addressing corner. 983 00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:22,040 Speaker 3: We've seen the Bengals addressing tackle. Everyone's going to have 984 00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:24,560 Speaker 3: a name or a position to throw out there. But 985 00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:26,920 Speaker 3: as we sit here today at the end of February, 986 00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:30,839 Speaker 3: if you had the opportunity to make the perfect pick 987 00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:32,840 Speaker 3: at number ten, who would you be zeroing in on. 988 00:51:34,120 --> 00:51:37,160 Speaker 8: I think right now when you're looking at who's worth 989 00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:38,560 Speaker 8: that pick in terms of how good they are as 990 00:51:38,600 --> 00:51:40,680 Speaker 8: a player, the value that they would bring to the 991 00:51:41,080 --> 00:51:44,160 Speaker 8: Bengals at their position, the value of the position itself, 992 00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:45,880 Speaker 8: because I think that's another fact that people kind of 993 00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:49,000 Speaker 8: overlook sometimes. But just an elite player who's worth that pick? 994 00:51:49,360 --> 00:51:51,600 Speaker 8: To me, it just screams Ruben Bain to me right now. 995 00:51:51,880 --> 00:51:53,719 Speaker 8: And this is a little bit of foresight for me, 996 00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:56,080 Speaker 8: just like thinking about what's going to happen in for 997 00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:57,680 Speaker 8: agency and what the team is going to look like 998 00:51:57,840 --> 00:52:01,680 Speaker 8: entering the draft. I feel a lot more comfortable about 999 00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:06,480 Speaker 8: the Bengals signing a veteran safety that would make taking 1000 00:52:06,640 --> 00:52:08,640 Speaker 8: a guy like Caleb Downs a little bit less of 1001 00:52:08,680 --> 00:52:12,359 Speaker 8: a necessity in compared to where the spots that they 1002 00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:14,560 Speaker 8: are now. But I think Caleb Downs is just as good, 1003 00:52:14,640 --> 00:52:17,520 Speaker 8: if not an almost even even better prospect compared to 1004 00:52:17,560 --> 00:52:19,640 Speaker 8: Reuben Bay. I would have them probably in the same bucket, 1005 00:52:19,719 --> 00:52:21,920 Speaker 8: the same tier, if just guys that feel so comfortable 1006 00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:25,280 Speaker 8: of being inserted into the defense and making an instant difference. 1007 00:52:25,320 --> 00:52:27,840 Speaker 8: But I do value an edge rusher over a safety, 1008 00:52:27,880 --> 00:52:29,160 Speaker 8: and I think it's going to be easier for the 1009 00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:31,759 Speaker 8: Bengals to sign a competence safety and just make sure 1010 00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:34,719 Speaker 8: that that position is still entering the draft. But I 1011 00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:36,520 Speaker 8: think Bain is one of the top five players in 1012 00:52:36,560 --> 00:52:39,320 Speaker 8: this class, and I think, for you know, very archaic 1013 00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:41,520 Speaker 8: reasons in terms of arm length and wingspan, he may 1014 00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:44,160 Speaker 8: actually be available with the tense overall plays. So right now, 1015 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:46,799 Speaker 8: that's still my ideal pick, and I think he would 1016 00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:48,520 Speaker 8: not only feel the bigges knee, but he would also 1017 00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:50,520 Speaker 8: give them a truly elite player in the class, and 1018 00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:51,840 Speaker 8: that's that's the combat that you're looking for. 1019 00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:55,319 Speaker 2: We've heard that the term positional value used a lot, 1020 00:52:55,480 --> 00:52:59,399 Speaker 2: especially as Caleb Downs is a safety at that number ten. 1021 00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:02,160 Speaker 2: We've also heard that with Sonny styles thrown around. Can 1022 00:53:02,239 --> 00:53:05,640 Speaker 2: you explain that to people specifically with the tenth overall 1023 00:53:05,719 --> 00:53:08,520 Speaker 2: pick and those positions safety and linebacker and why some 1024 00:53:08,680 --> 00:53:11,160 Speaker 2: teams maybe wouldn't spend that pick on those positions. 1025 00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:16,239 Speaker 8: Yeah, I think those positions specifically, you're looking at top 1026 00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:19,640 Speaker 8: of the market type of prices in terms of free agents, 1027 00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:23,280 Speaker 8: right and for a safety and linebacker compared to pass rusher, 1028 00:53:23,320 --> 00:53:26,360 Speaker 8: compared off the tackle, compared to wide receiver, compared to quarterback, 1029 00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:28,759 Speaker 8: there's just a different it's in a different atmosphere in 1030 00:53:28,840 --> 00:53:32,080 Speaker 8: terms of how much you're paying. And because draft picks 1031 00:53:32,239 --> 00:53:35,560 Speaker 8: they get paid, Like, we already know what their contracts 1032 00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:37,040 Speaker 8: are going to look like before they're even drafted. We 1033 00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:38,960 Speaker 8: knew what Jamar Stewart's contract was going to look like 1034 00:53:39,239 --> 00:53:41,799 Speaker 8: before he actually ended up signing it, right, Like, those 1035 00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:45,120 Speaker 8: are locked in values. So when you're talking about taking 1036 00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:47,480 Speaker 8: the tenth a player at the tenth overal pick, you 1037 00:53:47,560 --> 00:53:49,600 Speaker 8: know exactly how much he's going to get paid. And 1038 00:53:49,920 --> 00:53:53,040 Speaker 8: if a defense event like Ruben Bine fulfills his potentially 1039 00:53:53,080 --> 00:53:54,600 Speaker 8: it becomes a really good player by the end of 1040 00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:57,680 Speaker 8: his rookie contract, you're getting so much value because he's 1041 00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:00,319 Speaker 8: he plays a position that gets paid, you know, thirty 1042 00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:02,640 Speaker 8: forty million dollars in the open market for that type 1043 00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:04,799 Speaker 8: of player, whereas compared to a guy that could kill 1044 00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:06,920 Speaker 8: down kill Downs could be one of the best safeties 1045 00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:09,240 Speaker 8: in the league by the time that his contract expires. 1046 00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:12,479 Speaker 8: Shorty contract expires, But you're paying a pretty premium price 1047 00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:15,160 Speaker 8: for a safety compared to maybe like a pass rusher, 1048 00:54:15,200 --> 00:54:17,200 Speaker 8: maybe an offic of the tackles. Though, it's just because 1049 00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:19,879 Speaker 8: like what those positions get paid on the open market, 1050 00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:21,920 Speaker 8: you have to consider the value of that. And it's 1051 00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:25,040 Speaker 8: not like it's a bad decision, but there's other decisions 1052 00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:27,440 Speaker 8: that can create more value into especially when you're like 1053 00:54:27,480 --> 00:54:29,360 Speaker 8: the Bengals and you don't like to spend top of 1054 00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:30,360 Speaker 8: the market money on freeze ins. 1055 00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:33,040 Speaker 2: Anyway, as far as safety is concerned, there's been a 1056 00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:35,040 Speaker 2: lot of love for Jordan Battle in the last couple 1057 00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:37,960 Speaker 2: of days from Tobin from Taylor from Golden What do 1058 00:54:38,080 --> 00:54:40,880 Speaker 2: you make of that and maybe what their plan for 1059 00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:43,920 Speaker 2: Jordan Battle could be to continue his ascension that we 1060 00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:45,600 Speaker 2: saw a little bit towards the end of last year. 1061 00:54:46,880 --> 00:54:49,520 Speaker 8: Yeah, I think because he was a full time starter 1062 00:54:49,640 --> 00:54:51,920 Speaker 8: for the first time last year, he made a lot 1063 00:54:51,960 --> 00:54:55,040 Speaker 8: of obviously quality plays. He had his up and downs, 1064 00:54:55,160 --> 00:54:59,080 Speaker 8: like most players on the defense did, but I think 1065 00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:02,440 Speaker 8: the way that he progressed and was able to position 1066 00:55:02,520 --> 00:55:04,480 Speaker 8: himself to make those plays, I think was a big 1067 00:55:04,520 --> 00:55:07,960 Speaker 8: positive for them. And considering the fact that this was 1068 00:55:08,080 --> 00:55:11,359 Speaker 8: his first year really just settling in as a full 1069 00:55:11,440 --> 00:55:14,640 Speaker 8: time starter, they probably saw enough of him to be 1070 00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:17,040 Speaker 8: confident and running it back with him. I think there 1071 00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:20,840 Speaker 8: was also a hesitency to replace both starting safeties for 1072 00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:22,440 Speaker 8: the second time in a couple of years that you know, 1073 00:55:22,520 --> 00:55:24,759 Speaker 8: they tried to do that obviously back in twenty twenty 1074 00:55:24,800 --> 00:55:27,560 Speaker 8: three and they failed miserably under Lunarumo. And obviously the 1075 00:55:27,719 --> 00:55:30,200 Speaker 8: process of replacing those guys a loving very good. But 1076 00:55:30,480 --> 00:55:33,920 Speaker 8: I think they're very locked in on finding a new 1077 00:55:34,040 --> 00:55:36,600 Speaker 8: partner with Battle, someone who can just do his job 1078 00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:39,480 Speaker 8: better than what Ginostone did and then have Battle kind 1079 00:55:39,520 --> 00:55:42,399 Speaker 8: of compete in a contract year try to play his bests. 1080 00:55:42,440 --> 00:55:45,160 Speaker 8: Obviously there's motivation with that factory as well, but I 1081 00:55:45,239 --> 00:55:47,320 Speaker 8: think at the end of the day, Battle did just 1082 00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:50,759 Speaker 8: enough to kind of secure his spot, and I think 1083 00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:53,920 Speaker 8: them being bullish on him is a recognition that signing 1084 00:55:54,120 --> 00:55:57,240 Speaker 8: or drafting two new safeties there to replace both Ginas 1085 00:55:57,239 --> 00:55:58,880 Speaker 8: Stone and Jordan Battle is probably not feasible. 1086 00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:04,640 Speaker 3: I've seen in some mock drafts the name Francis Mawinoa 1087 00:56:04,719 --> 00:56:09,000 Speaker 3: has popped up the offensive tackle from Miami. Do you 1088 00:56:09,160 --> 00:56:12,799 Speaker 3: foresee or could you foresee a scenario where the Bengals 1089 00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:16,560 Speaker 3: don't address defense with the number ten overall pick. 1090 00:56:18,320 --> 00:56:18,520 Speaker 5: Yeah? 1091 00:56:18,719 --> 00:56:22,080 Speaker 8: I think him specifically because he's got this guard tackle 1092 00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:24,839 Speaker 8: flexibility too, and I think teams are going to look 1093 00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:27,600 Speaker 8: at him in that way just because he's not maybe 1094 00:56:27,640 --> 00:56:30,240 Speaker 8: as long as he would like a traditional offensive tackle 1095 00:56:30,320 --> 00:56:33,880 Speaker 8: to be. I think that makes so much sense, especially 1096 00:56:33,920 --> 00:56:35,680 Speaker 8: considered like we at this point in time, we don't 1097 00:56:35,719 --> 00:56:37,200 Speaker 8: know if Dalton Riser is going to be back, so 1098 00:56:37,280 --> 00:56:39,719 Speaker 8: that they would always say a huge need at right guard, 1099 00:56:39,880 --> 00:56:42,680 Speaker 8: Like hell we get as a freegency thinking, I'm like, damn, 1100 00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:44,239 Speaker 8: we need to find another guard again because he didn't 1101 00:56:44,280 --> 00:56:46,840 Speaker 8: find rising it right, and like they could you know, 1102 00:56:46,920 --> 00:56:49,440 Speaker 8: theoretically fill that need with the tenth overall pick and 1103 00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:52,840 Speaker 8: with Francis specifically, he can play guard as a rookie 1104 00:56:52,920 --> 00:56:55,440 Speaker 8: and then move out to left tackle potentially to replace ROLANDA. 1105 00:56:55,480 --> 00:56:58,640 Speaker 8: Brown junior in twenty twenty seven. But regardless of what 1106 00:56:58,719 --> 00:57:01,200 Speaker 8: happens at right guard, they do need a swing tackle 1107 00:57:01,280 --> 00:57:02,960 Speaker 8: for this year. I think they need to probably move 1108 00:57:03,000 --> 00:57:05,080 Speaker 8: on from Cody Ford and find someone better and then 1109 00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:07,840 Speaker 8: to grooman to eventually replaced Rolando brun juneor as the 1110 00:57:07,880 --> 00:57:10,239 Speaker 8: Planet's eleven walk in for agency next year, because we're 1111 00:57:10,239 --> 00:57:11,520 Speaker 8: going to be thirty years old and they cost a 1112 00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:14,040 Speaker 8: lot again to pay for left tackles, and that's why 1113 00:57:15,120 --> 00:57:18,160 Speaker 8: selecting a future left tackle the tenth rod pick there's 1114 00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:21,280 Speaker 8: value to that because again you're paying a fixed locked 1115 00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:23,240 Speaker 8: in costs for that, and if he ends up being 1116 00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:24,800 Speaker 8: as good as he wants to be from the gaming 1117 00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:26,160 Speaker 8: value with that, So yeah, it makes a lot of 1118 00:57:26,200 --> 00:57:27,400 Speaker 8: sense to me to use that Picke, if there's not 1119 00:57:27,400 --> 00:57:28,640 Speaker 8: a defense player that they like there. 1120 00:57:29,520 --> 00:57:33,360 Speaker 3: What about the scenario where let's say that the four 1121 00:57:33,440 --> 00:57:36,120 Speaker 3: or five guys that you've highlighted have already been taken 1122 00:57:36,280 --> 00:57:39,040 Speaker 3: in the first nine picks, and you know, we heard 1123 00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:41,720 Speaker 3: Duke Tobin kind of talk about, you know, best player 1124 00:57:41,720 --> 00:57:45,560 Speaker 3: available versus biggest need. Do you do you open the 1125 00:57:45,600 --> 00:57:48,680 Speaker 3: scenario of trading back if you are the Cincinnati Bengals 1126 00:57:48,720 --> 00:57:51,320 Speaker 3: based on what happens in those front nine picks ahead 1127 00:57:51,320 --> 00:57:51,440 Speaker 3: of you. 1128 00:57:52,680 --> 00:57:54,960 Speaker 8: Yeah. I actually just talked to someone else in the 1129 00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:57,480 Speaker 8: Daisy Sports who was talking about a scenario about the 1130 00:57:57,560 --> 00:58:01,760 Speaker 8: Timbilia Buccaneers potentially moving up for Sunny Styles, right, and 1131 00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:04,080 Speaker 8: how there's been a trade in the past where from 1132 00:58:04,120 --> 00:58:06,280 Speaker 8: moving up from fifteen to ten you get a third 1133 00:58:06,320 --> 00:58:08,280 Speaker 8: and the fifth round pick in return. Well, the Bengals 1134 00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:10,720 Speaker 8: don't have a fifth round pick this year, and yeah, 1135 00:58:10,960 --> 00:58:13,040 Speaker 8: it would also it would be nice to have more swings, 1136 00:58:13,160 --> 00:58:15,520 Speaker 8: especially in the class where at the top there's not 1137 00:58:15,600 --> 00:58:18,160 Speaker 8: a lot of elite talents. So I think there's gonna 1138 00:58:18,160 --> 00:58:19,920 Speaker 8: be a lot of teams picking around the Bengals that 1139 00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:21,960 Speaker 8: would like to move back and just try to take 1140 00:58:21,960 --> 00:58:24,400 Speaker 8: as many swings as possible on some risky players, kind 1141 00:58:24,400 --> 00:58:26,680 Speaker 8: of in Day two and Day three and whatnot, and 1142 00:58:26,760 --> 00:58:28,360 Speaker 8: just kind of fill out the roster that way. I 1143 00:58:28,480 --> 00:58:30,520 Speaker 8: am interested to see though, because the Bengals are at 1144 00:58:30,560 --> 00:58:32,800 Speaker 8: sixty five players in the roster right now. They're typically 1145 00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:36,520 Speaker 8: around this number after frequency ends, so I don't know 1146 00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:39,080 Speaker 8: if you know nine or ten players are actually gonna 1147 00:58:39,080 --> 00:58:42,280 Speaker 8: make the roster. Who are drafted from the draft plots, 1148 00:58:42,320 --> 00:58:44,120 Speaker 8: So I don't know if a volume of picks is 1149 00:58:44,160 --> 00:58:46,800 Speaker 8: necessarily the Bengals that's interest. But if there isn't a 1150 00:58:46,840 --> 00:58:49,760 Speaker 8: player that's worth picking tens overall that you feel like 1151 00:58:49,800 --> 00:58:51,479 Speaker 8: and you can get an extra day to pick in return, 1152 00:58:51,640 --> 00:58:53,040 Speaker 8: I don't think that's the worst snaire in the world 1153 00:58:53,080 --> 00:58:53,320 Speaker 8: at all. 1154 00:58:53,880 --> 00:58:58,160 Speaker 2: Duke Tobin described fourth round picks as geno actions. Do 1155 00:58:58,640 --> 00:59:01,560 Speaker 2: you think that is kind of vindicative of how much 1156 00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:04,600 Speaker 2: they view fourth round picks? If every fourth round pick 1157 00:59:04,640 --> 00:59:06,680 Speaker 2: in their mind is Geno Atkins, do you think they'll 1158 00:59:06,720 --> 00:59:07,360 Speaker 2: ever trade one. 1159 00:59:09,120 --> 00:59:11,440 Speaker 8: It's really just it sums up the Bengals a lot, 1160 00:59:11,560 --> 00:59:17,000 Speaker 8: because they value draft picks as but as potential value investments. 1161 00:59:17,080 --> 00:59:17,200 Speaker 11: Right. 1162 00:59:17,480 --> 00:59:20,520 Speaker 8: A fourth round pick becoming Geno Atkins saves them so 1163 00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:23,560 Speaker 8: much money from having to spend in free agency on 1164 00:59:23,600 --> 00:59:25,720 Speaker 8: a player who is like half of Geno Atkins. 1165 00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:25,960 Speaker 4: Right. 1166 00:59:26,160 --> 00:59:29,160 Speaker 8: Obviously, it's been sixteen freaking years since that pick was made. 1167 00:59:29,280 --> 00:59:31,360 Speaker 8: They haven't done anything removing close in the fourth round 1168 00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:33,560 Speaker 8: since then. But there's always a chance, guys, there's always 1169 00:59:33,560 --> 00:59:36,240 Speaker 8: a chance that the mystery box becomes a boat instead 1170 00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:36,880 Speaker 8: of pain for boat. 1171 00:59:37,560 --> 00:59:40,560 Speaker 2: What do you think of the term force multipliers being 1172 00:59:40,680 --> 00:59:41,280 Speaker 2: used so much. 1173 00:59:42,800 --> 00:59:45,920 Speaker 8: I think that's another term that indicates like, instead of 1174 00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:49,840 Speaker 8: signing a multitude of guys to fix the problem, signing 1175 00:59:49,960 --> 00:59:52,760 Speaker 8: one guy that makes the lives of everyone else's jobs easier. 1176 00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:54,760 Speaker 8: This is the more efficient way of doing that. The 1177 00:59:54,840 --> 00:59:57,080 Speaker 8: problem though, is that like the best example of a 1178 00:59:57,160 --> 00:59:59,600 Speaker 8: force multiplier the Bengals have is a guy like Jamar 1179 00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:02,760 Speaker 8: Chase as someone who takes attention away from other defenders, 1180 01:00:03,080 --> 01:00:05,680 Speaker 8: up opportunities for guys and offense. He was a overall pick, 1181 01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:07,640 Speaker 8: He's a highest offensive player in the league right now. 1182 01:00:07,680 --> 01:00:10,880 Speaker 8: Those guys are not inexpensive. So yeah, if you find 1183 01:00:11,480 --> 01:00:14,560 Speaker 8: value force multipliers, that is like a cheat code to 1184 01:00:14,720 --> 01:00:16,920 Speaker 8: making your roster a lot better. So I think for 1185 01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:19,080 Speaker 8: a team that has his belief that they are not 1186 01:00:19,240 --> 01:00:22,160 Speaker 8: that far away from competing for a championship, adding a 1187 01:00:22,200 --> 01:00:24,479 Speaker 8: couple of pieces to make all the other younger guys 1188 01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:26,680 Speaker 8: on defense that need some guidance and leadership, I think 1189 01:00:26,720 --> 01:00:27,880 Speaker 8: that is part of their mindset. 1190 01:00:27,920 --> 01:00:29,760 Speaker 2: Is why we've heard it so much. Who's more of 1191 01:00:29,840 --> 01:00:33,680 Speaker 2: a force multiplier, Ruben Bain or Caleb Downs. Oh, that 1192 01:00:33,880 --> 01:00:34,840 Speaker 2: is such a good question. 1193 01:00:35,040 --> 01:00:37,400 Speaker 8: I think honestly that the answer might be Downs just 1194 01:00:37,440 --> 01:00:39,400 Speaker 8: because of him being able to communicate on the back 1195 01:00:39,520 --> 01:00:41,960 Speaker 8: end and getting people lined up. I do question how 1196 01:00:42,040 --> 01:00:43,440 Speaker 8: much he's going to be able to do that as 1197 01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:45,600 Speaker 8: a rookie, But I don't really have a lot of 1198 01:00:45,680 --> 01:00:47,400 Speaker 8: questions about Downs in the first place. I just know 1199 01:00:47,880 --> 01:00:50,360 Speaker 8: that Ruben baines like you can trust him to win 1200 01:00:50,400 --> 01:00:52,560 Speaker 8: a one on one situation as a pass rusher and 1201 01:00:52,600 --> 01:00:55,080 Speaker 8: that it was up other opportunities for your other pass rusher. 1202 01:00:55,160 --> 01:00:56,640 Speaker 8: So I think they're both. But I can see the 1203 01:00:56,760 --> 01:00:57,400 Speaker 8: argument for Downs. 1204 01:00:57,400 --> 01:00:57,720 Speaker 11: For sure. 1205 01:00:57,960 --> 01:01:00,080 Speaker 3: We knew the combine was going to be a wine 1206 01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:02,920 Speaker 3: where maybe we learn more about Trey Hendrickson. Do you 1207 01:01:03,040 --> 01:01:06,720 Speaker 3: envision anything coming from the combine with interest from another 1208 01:01:06,760 --> 01:01:09,360 Speaker 3: team with Trey Hendrickson and perhaps how that would play out. 1209 01:01:10,680 --> 01:01:13,200 Speaker 8: Yeah, I think those talks are probably still going on. 1210 01:01:13,400 --> 01:01:17,120 Speaker 8: It's probably leaning towards nothing's really going to happen, because again, 1211 01:01:17,200 --> 01:01:20,320 Speaker 8: this is very unprecedented territory. When you're talking about the 1212 01:01:20,360 --> 01:01:23,520 Speaker 8: Bengals and tagging trade situations are pretty rare anyways. Nowadays, 1213 01:01:23,560 --> 01:01:25,400 Speaker 8: we haven't seen one since twenty twenty four. The last 1214 01:01:25,440 --> 01:01:28,000 Speaker 8: team to do that was the Chiefs. They're not shy 1215 01:01:28,120 --> 01:01:29,960 Speaker 8: doing anything out of the box in that regard. I 1216 01:01:30,040 --> 01:01:31,880 Speaker 8: just think what's working against the Bengals right now is 1217 01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:35,480 Speaker 8: because this is such a deep and saturated market for 1218 01:01:35,600 --> 01:01:39,760 Speaker 8: defensive ends, the market for trading for the rights to 1219 01:01:39,960 --> 01:01:42,160 Speaker 8: pay a thirty one year old pass rusher coming out 1220 01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:44,600 Speaker 8: of an injury filed season, They're probably not going to 1221 01:01:44,640 --> 01:01:46,320 Speaker 8: get the pick that they want. And that was the 1222 01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:48,080 Speaker 8: case all of last year when they were trying like 1223 01:01:48,600 --> 01:01:50,120 Speaker 8: hell to find a first round pick for Trey and 1224 01:01:50,160 --> 01:01:51,560 Speaker 8: then they can only get a Day two pick. Well, 1225 01:01:51,600 --> 01:01:53,280 Speaker 8: now they may be trying for a Day two pick 1226 01:01:53,280 --> 01:01:54,800 Speaker 8: and maybe they can only get a Day three pick 1227 01:01:55,080 --> 01:01:57,400 Speaker 8: in return. So maybe in their minds they feel like 1228 01:01:57,480 --> 01:02:00,200 Speaker 8: letting him walk and potentially getting a compensive where you 1229 01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:01,800 Speaker 8: pick next year is the better Pat and said, just 1230 01:02:02,040 --> 01:02:04,760 Speaker 8: accepting like a fifth round pick this year for a 1231 01:02:04,840 --> 01:02:07,600 Speaker 8: tagging trade situation, that again takes a lot of cooperation 1232 01:02:07,680 --> 01:02:10,200 Speaker 8: and communication from both sides between the team and the player, 1233 01:02:10,320 --> 01:02:12,240 Speaker 8: and obviously there hasn't been a lot of communication between 1234 01:02:12,240 --> 01:02:14,360 Speaker 8: the team and Trey Henderson over the course of his career, 1235 01:02:14,480 --> 01:02:16,600 Speaker 8: so I just don't foresee that happening at this point. 1236 01:02:16,960 --> 01:02:18,520 Speaker 2: What's your arm length, John. 1237 01:02:19,880 --> 01:02:22,040 Speaker 8: I think it's I think it's more than Reuben Bain, 1238 01:02:22,120 --> 01:02:23,160 Speaker 8: but I can't confirm that. 1239 01:02:26,520 --> 01:02:30,320 Speaker 2: Elite measurables. It's it's the measurables that they jump off 1240 01:02:30,360 --> 01:02:31,080 Speaker 2: the page. Yeah. 1241 01:02:35,080 --> 01:02:37,960 Speaker 3: The last thing I have in going back to what 1242 01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:40,680 Speaker 3: Duke Tobin had talked about, We've we've talked about the draft, 1243 01:02:40,880 --> 01:02:44,680 Speaker 3: We've talked about free agency, potential for trades out there. Uh, 1244 01:02:44,880 --> 01:02:47,800 Speaker 3: his comments on Dalton Reisner and the decision that Dalton 1245 01:02:47,840 --> 01:02:50,880 Speaker 3: Reisner has to make as well. Uh, do you foresee 1246 01:02:51,360 --> 01:02:54,440 Speaker 3: something getting done sooner rather than later with Dalton Reisner. 1247 01:02:55,440 --> 01:02:57,480 Speaker 8: Yeah, So I said all that kind of ingests earlier. 1248 01:02:57,520 --> 01:02:59,920 Speaker 8: But I do believe that the Bengals will extend Don Rice. 1249 01:03:00,280 --> 01:03:03,600 Speaker 8: I just think because mainly because he just has never 1250 01:03:03,800 --> 01:03:07,520 Speaker 8: signed a notable contract before in his career. He's already 1251 01:03:07,560 --> 01:03:10,240 Speaker 8: thirty years old. There's a clear fit between the player 1252 01:03:10,280 --> 01:03:12,520 Speaker 8: and the team or the scheme. He wants to be here. 1253 01:03:12,600 --> 01:03:14,880 Speaker 8: He's made that very clear. And when you have that 1254 01:03:15,120 --> 01:03:18,640 Speaker 8: sort of passion from the player's side of the negotiations, 1255 01:03:18,920 --> 01:03:21,720 Speaker 8: especially when he's never really made a sizeable check in 1256 01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:25,240 Speaker 8: his NFL career, that's typically when these decisions get aren't 1257 01:03:25,240 --> 01:03:27,560 Speaker 8: able to get done. Like, I think it's very similar 1258 01:03:27,560 --> 01:03:29,920 Speaker 8: to Mike a Seki last year, who obviously played on 1259 01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:33,200 Speaker 8: a one year deal. He expressed desires, you know, cashing 1260 01:03:33,280 --> 01:03:35,840 Speaker 8: free agency, but he realized that his best fit was 1261 01:03:35,880 --> 01:03:38,000 Speaker 8: here and the Bengals were able to get something done. 1262 01:03:38,120 --> 01:03:39,960 Speaker 8: But they're able to give him the best contract of 1263 01:03:40,040 --> 01:03:42,760 Speaker 8: his career just two days before the legal tampering window 1264 01:03:42,800 --> 01:03:45,760 Speaker 8: opened up. So I would say that weekend before free 1265 01:03:45,760 --> 01:03:48,000 Speaker 8: agency is when this is really going to kind of 1266 01:03:48,040 --> 01:03:50,160 Speaker 8: come to a head. And I think that's when Donald 1267 01:03:50,200 --> 01:03:52,560 Speaker 8: Reiser will realize that his best chance of not only 1268 01:03:52,640 --> 01:03:54,880 Speaker 8: making money, but being in a place that actually fits 1269 01:03:54,960 --> 01:03:57,080 Speaker 8: him is with the Bengals, And I think that's ultimately 1270 01:03:57,120 --> 01:03:57,880 Speaker 8: when this gets done. 1271 01:03:58,320 --> 01:04:01,640 Speaker 3: I imagine John much like the Bengals and Duke Tobin. 1272 01:04:01,680 --> 01:04:03,880 Speaker 3: You're all in on the off season as well. What's 1273 01:04:03,880 --> 01:04:06,200 Speaker 3: the easiest way that folks can follow along with everything 1274 01:04:06,200 --> 01:04:07,680 Speaker 3: you got going on with eight of Z Sports. 1275 01:04:08,640 --> 01:04:10,920 Speaker 8: We are all in with a capital A and I 1276 01:04:11,440 --> 01:04:14,480 Speaker 8: and he are on eight is E Sports, YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, 1277 01:04:14,560 --> 01:04:18,400 Speaker 8: Instagram for all your short term, short term content video content, 1278 01:04:18,440 --> 01:04:20,440 Speaker 8: and we're also on eighties sports dot Com.

I think 1773 01:31:39,920 --> 01:31:43,120 Speaker 28: Jake Golday's situation is interesting to me because he's kind 1774 01:31:43,120 --> 01:31:45,720 Speaker 28: of he's going to be playing sort of a different. 1775 01:31:45,520 --> 01:31:48,439 Speaker 11: Position at linebacker. In the NFL, he played a. 1776 01:31:48,439 --> 01:31:51,320 Speaker 28: Lot of Sam at uc at the premium front, so 1777 01:31:51,439 --> 01:31:54,320 Speaker 28: he was kind of flexible, could line up on the 1778 01:31:54,360 --> 01:31:56,479 Speaker 28: defensive line and go for the quarterback a little bit. 1779 01:31:56,720 --> 01:32:00,200 Speaker 28: But I just think his skill set and maybe with 1780 01:32:00,280 --> 01:32:02,280 Speaker 28: the production like he had one hundred and four tackles 1781 01:32:02,360 --> 01:32:03,519 Speaker 28: his past year, he. 1782 01:32:03,560 --> 01:32:05,960 Speaker 11: Wants to run a four or five forty his size. 1783 01:32:07,200 --> 01:32:08,640 Speaker 28: I just feel like a GM would kind of be 1784 01:32:09,000 --> 01:32:11,320 Speaker 28: a full to pass up on him if if they're 1785 01:32:11,400 --> 01:32:16,000 Speaker 28: linebacker needy, especially a team in Cincinnati like the Bengals, 1786 01:32:16,040 --> 01:32:18,840 Speaker 28: who as of yesterday hadn't yet met with gold Ay, 1787 01:32:19,520 --> 01:32:23,000 Speaker 28: so I would love to see him stay in the city. 1788 01:32:23,680 --> 01:32:26,240 Speaker 28: Joe Royer's story is obviously awesome. Lost his mom his 1789 01:32:26,320 --> 01:32:29,040 Speaker 28: thirty year at Ohio State and lost his love for 1790 01:32:29,120 --> 01:32:31,960 Speaker 28: the game of football, transferred back home to Cincinnati, and 1791 01:32:32,320 --> 01:32:34,840 Speaker 28: told us today that he like kind of rediscovered it 1792 01:32:35,360 --> 01:32:37,800 Speaker 28: saying with the Bearcats, and part of it might be 1793 01:32:38,000 --> 01:32:39,920 Speaker 28: going back home. Part of that might be, you know, 1794 01:32:40,040 --> 01:32:42,200 Speaker 28: it's it's way more fun to be the go to 1795 01:32:42,360 --> 01:32:45,080 Speaker 28: guy offense instead of being thirred in the depth chart 1796 01:32:45,160 --> 01:32:47,360 Speaker 28: and getting like fixed receptions. 1797 01:32:49,160 --> 01:32:53,479 Speaker 2: I wouldn't say, go to We're getting to that Tony, 1798 01:32:54,360 --> 01:32:54,720 Speaker 2: all right. 1799 01:32:55,880 --> 01:32:59,400 Speaker 11: So someone asked him about that, and you know kind 1800 01:32:59,439 --> 01:33:02,160 Speaker 11: of what led to it. And this dude he came 1801 01:33:02,240 --> 01:33:04,800 Speaker 11: with receipts. He was like, so I got a few 1802 01:33:04,920 --> 01:33:06,400 Speaker 11: stats for you, and he's. 1803 01:33:06,240 --> 01:33:09,320 Speaker 28: Like, we were lasting time of possession, running a lot 1804 01:33:09,360 --> 01:33:09,920 Speaker 28: of RPO. 1805 01:33:10,320 --> 01:33:12,120 Speaker 11: We had a bunch of man blitzing at the end 1806 01:33:12,120 --> 01:33:13,800 Speaker 11: of the year, so I had to protect a bunch. 1807 01:33:14,960 --> 01:33:18,160 Speaker 11: So I'm hoping that this past year definitely. 1808 01:33:17,920 --> 01:33:20,040 Speaker 28: Dinged his draft stock a little bit. He was rumored 1809 01:33:20,080 --> 01:33:22,599 Speaker 28: to be a first round pick. He'll probably go more 1810 01:33:22,640 --> 01:33:24,559 Speaker 28: in the fourth or fifth round range if I had 1811 01:33:24,600 --> 01:33:27,680 Speaker 28: the guests, But I think just at Golda, he's got 1812 01:33:27,720 --> 01:33:30,680 Speaker 28: the skill set and the size and the traits that 1813 01:33:30,840 --> 01:33:32,000 Speaker 28: have success in the NFL. 1814 01:33:32,320 --> 01:33:36,040 Speaker 3: How do you project these guys as NBA NFL draft picks? 1815 01:33:36,080 --> 01:33:38,599 Speaker 3: Because you can make the argument Keegan when he's healthy 1816 01:33:38,680 --> 01:33:42,479 Speaker 3: and when he's in the game, Dante Corleone disrupts everything 1817 01:33:42,520 --> 01:33:44,439 Speaker 3: that an offense wants to do. The problem is he 1818 01:33:44,560 --> 01:33:46,640 Speaker 3: did not play enough. He was off the field. The 1819 01:33:46,720 --> 01:33:50,719 Speaker 3: injuries are obviously concerned. Gold Day's an absolute physical freak, 1820 01:33:50,760 --> 01:33:52,840 Speaker 3: flies all over the field, and as you mentioned, Royer 1821 01:33:53,479 --> 01:33:55,880 Speaker 3: going into the year had this huge upside. Some had 1822 01:33:55,920 --> 01:33:58,880 Speaker 3: him as a first round pick. So which ceiling is 1823 01:33:58,960 --> 01:34:00,639 Speaker 3: the highest out of those three Bearcats? 1824 01:34:02,600 --> 01:34:04,760 Speaker 11: If I had to go stealing wise, I think it's 1825 01:34:05,000 --> 01:34:08,960 Speaker 11: I think it's Jake Bolday. Just his build and his mix. 1826 01:34:08,880 --> 01:34:11,360 Speaker 28: Of speed and like he even said, his best trads, 1827 01:34:11,400 --> 01:34:13,439 Speaker 28: his effort, how he gets all out effort on every 1828 01:34:13,479 --> 01:34:15,960 Speaker 28: single play. I think that just sets him up to 1829 01:34:16,080 --> 01:34:19,000 Speaker 28: be a high volume tackler and then also use his 1830 01:34:19,120 --> 01:34:21,439 Speaker 28: defensive ends go set that he had a central Arkansas 1831 01:34:21,479 --> 01:34:23,640 Speaker 28: and that he kind of capitalized on a Cincinnati to 1832 01:34:24,080 --> 01:34:25,160 Speaker 28: get after the quarterback. 1833 01:34:26,120 --> 01:34:29,360 Speaker 11: The positional flexibility that he has, like he will probably 1834 01:34:29,439 --> 01:34:30,000 Speaker 11: playing Mike. 1835 01:34:30,840 --> 01:34:32,840 Speaker 28: He's played a lot of sand, he could probably splide 1836 01:34:32,840 --> 01:34:34,559 Speaker 28: over to Will, and he can line up as kind 1837 01:34:34,560 --> 01:34:37,200 Speaker 28: of an outside linebacker. I think that puts him in 1838 01:34:37,240 --> 01:34:40,479 Speaker 28: a position to have a really good career. Dante's interesting 1839 01:34:40,560 --> 01:34:42,760 Speaker 28: to me because he mainly played in the freeman front 1840 01:34:42,800 --> 01:34:45,720 Speaker 28: of Cincinnati, so he didn't like he was getting double 1841 01:34:45,760 --> 01:34:48,840 Speaker 28: team basically every play of his entire career. But in 1842 01:34:49,040 --> 01:34:51,479 Speaker 28: those one on ones you saw how he just bullied 1843 01:34:51,760 --> 01:34:54,559 Speaker 28: like offensive lineman and how he was basically pushing them 1844 01:34:54,600 --> 01:34:58,720 Speaker 28: back into the quarterback. So and then I think Joe, 1845 01:34:59,200 --> 01:35:01,879 Speaker 28: if he can stay on the field as a blocker 1846 01:35:02,120 --> 01:35:04,160 Speaker 28: and really really proved to be a really good blocker, 1847 01:35:04,560 --> 01:35:05,960 Speaker 28: I think he can also have a career. 1848 01:35:06,880 --> 01:35:09,680 Speaker 11: But I think it for me, if Jake Golden is 1849 01:35:09,720 --> 01:35:10,040 Speaker 11: a Hall. 1850 01:35:09,960 --> 01:35:12,519 Speaker 28: Of Famer one day, it would really surprise me. And 1851 01:35:12,760 --> 01:35:15,720 Speaker 28: I said that since the first spraying or fall pack 1852 01:35:15,880 --> 01:35:16,720 Speaker 28: practice that he was. 1853 01:35:16,720 --> 01:35:17,240 Speaker 11: At U see. 1854 01:35:18,360 --> 01:35:22,200 Speaker 3: I wonder because I saw a list yesterday of Combine snubs. 1855 01:35:22,320 --> 01:35:25,160 Speaker 3: There's a lot of folks that believe Cyrus Allen should 1856 01:35:25,240 --> 01:35:29,479 Speaker 3: be at the Combine when a player has skipped over 1857 01:35:29,600 --> 01:35:32,280 Speaker 3: in that sense, Does that sometimes maybe add fuel to 1858 01:35:33,160 --> 01:35:36,320 Speaker 3: Cyrus Allen because I still project him if he lands 1859 01:35:36,360 --> 01:35:38,559 Speaker 3: in the right spot with the right team, I still 1860 01:35:38,600 --> 01:35:40,880 Speaker 3: think he can be a productive NFL wide receiver. 1861 01:35:42,200 --> 01:35:44,960 Speaker 28: Absolutely, and I think it should add fuel. And I 1862 01:35:45,080 --> 01:35:47,600 Speaker 28: don't really know exactly what goes into the process of 1863 01:35:47,680 --> 01:35:50,640 Speaker 28: selecting guys to the combine and what boxes need to 1864 01:35:50,720 --> 01:35:52,519 Speaker 28: be checked, or if there's just a certain amount of 1865 01:35:52,600 --> 01:35:56,240 Speaker 28: numbers that they limit it to. But it's just hard 1866 01:35:56,280 --> 01:35:59,880 Speaker 28: for me to understand why you can't give the Things 1867 01:36:00,000 --> 01:36:00,759 Speaker 28: twelve leader. 1868 01:36:00,600 --> 01:36:04,719 Speaker 11: And touchdown receptions and invite especially when like the skill 1869 01:36:04,800 --> 01:36:07,080 Speaker 11: set that he showed and kind of what you said, 1870 01:36:07,080 --> 01:36:10,120 Speaker 11: if he lands in the right spot, GMS love guys 1871 01:36:10,160 --> 01:36:12,479 Speaker 11: who get open because if you can get open, you 1872 01:36:12,600 --> 01:36:15,240 Speaker 11: can score touchdowns, you can wrack up the yards and receptions. 1873 01:36:15,600 --> 01:36:18,320 Speaker 11: And that's what he does better than anyone in the 1874 01:36:18,360 --> 01:36:20,800 Speaker 11: Big Twelve this past year. His mix of. 1875 01:36:20,880 --> 01:36:25,840 Speaker 28: Speed and route running, kind of understanding defenses and the 1876 01:36:26,160 --> 01:36:28,320 Speaker 28: rapport that he was able to build with Brennon Sowersby 1877 01:36:28,360 --> 01:36:31,559 Speaker 28: in just one year. I think that, like Golde, sets 1878 01:36:31,640 --> 01:36:33,599 Speaker 28: him up for a lot of success and I would 1879 01:36:33,600 --> 01:36:35,800 Speaker 28: expect them to be taken maybe around the fourth or 1880 01:36:35,840 --> 01:36:39,280 Speaker 28: fifth round range as a team just looking to get 1881 01:36:39,320 --> 01:36:40,840 Speaker 28: a guy who can really stretch the field. 1882 01:36:41,560 --> 01:36:44,960 Speaker 3: Any other Bearcats that outside of those four that you 1883 01:36:45,120 --> 01:36:48,080 Speaker 3: think could shine at a Pro Day or have a 1884 01:36:48,120 --> 01:36:49,240 Speaker 3: spot on an NFL roster. 1885 01:36:51,080 --> 01:36:53,200 Speaker 28: I think if anyone can capitalize up for Pro Day, 1886 01:36:53,200 --> 01:36:54,600 Speaker 28: it's Jeff Caldwell. 1887 01:36:54,400 --> 01:36:57,400 Speaker 11: Because I think he had a eleven nine broad jump 1888 01:36:57,439 --> 01:36:58,759 Speaker 11: that you see last year, which. 1889 01:36:58,640 --> 01:37:01,720 Speaker 28: Would have been number one last year's combined by like 1890 01:37:01,800 --> 01:37:06,240 Speaker 28: a few inches. He's got really good straight line speed. 1891 01:37:06,600 --> 01:37:08,559 Speaker 28: I don't know if he gets to it that fast 1892 01:37:08,600 --> 01:37:10,320 Speaker 28: to a point where he can register like a four 1893 01:37:10,320 --> 01:37:15,200 Speaker 28: to three forty, but six three has great catch ability. 1894 01:37:15,240 --> 01:37:16,880 Speaker 28: You saw it against Bowling Green when he had that 1895 01:37:16,960 --> 01:37:20,840 Speaker 28: one hand catch. Also pretty good route running. So I'm 1896 01:37:20,920 --> 01:37:21,879 Speaker 28: looking forward to seeing. 1897 01:37:21,760 --> 01:37:25,840 Speaker 11: His numbers where he is at the arm length or a. 1898 01:37:25,920 --> 01:37:30,560 Speaker 28: Wingspan and a hand size kind of thing, and I 1899 01:37:30,680 --> 01:37:33,800 Speaker 28: think he would probably get taken before Cyrus aland just 1900 01:37:33,880 --> 01:37:35,160 Speaker 28: because of the tools that he has. 1901 01:37:36,080 --> 01:37:37,240 Speaker 2: Let's switch gears a little bit. 1902 01:37:37,720 --> 01:37:40,280 Speaker 3: The quarterback of the Bearcats the last two seasons will 1903 01:37:40,280 --> 01:37:42,439 Speaker 3: be at Texas Tech this year is being sued by 1904 01:37:42,479 --> 01:37:47,559 Speaker 3: the University of Cincinnati. Brendan Sowarsby versus now the University 1905 01:37:47,600 --> 01:37:49,840 Speaker 3: of Cincinnati. What do you know about this so far 1906 01:37:50,000 --> 01:37:53,639 Speaker 3: and maybe early on in this process, what this looks 1907 01:37:53,720 --> 01:37:55,280 Speaker 3: like from a UC standpoint. 1908 01:37:57,160 --> 01:38:00,120 Speaker 28: Yeah, it's it's kind of funny to me that this 1909 01:38:00,240 --> 01:38:02,920 Speaker 28: is getting so much traction, and I think it mainly 1910 01:38:03,080 --> 01:38:06,360 Speaker 28: is just because it's like a school suing their former quarterback, 1911 01:38:07,000 --> 01:38:10,880 Speaker 28: because when you really boil it down, it's just breach 1912 01:38:10,960 --> 01:38:14,080 Speaker 28: of contract, like you're just not living up to what 1913 01:38:14,240 --> 01:38:14,960 Speaker 28: you signed. 1914 01:38:14,680 --> 01:38:15,200 Speaker 11: Your name to. 1915 01:38:16,000 --> 01:38:17,800 Speaker 28: And he knew that if he didn't stay there for 1916 01:38:18,320 --> 01:38:21,519 Speaker 28: two years a second year after he signed the deal 1917 01:38:21,640 --> 01:38:24,240 Speaker 28: following the twenty twenty four season, that he would have 1918 01:38:24,360 --> 01:38:27,320 Speaker 28: to pay a million dollar bio because it was either 1919 01:38:28,000 --> 01:38:29,479 Speaker 28: I don't know if there was wording that if he 1920 01:38:29,520 --> 01:38:31,080 Speaker 28: went to the NFL out for the season he would 1921 01:38:31,080 --> 01:38:33,560 Speaker 28: have to pay it or anything like that. But he 1922 01:38:33,880 --> 01:38:36,120 Speaker 28: left for another school, so it makes even more sense. 1923 01:38:37,080 --> 01:38:40,360 Speaker 28: It's also funny because when you read his lawyer's statement, 1924 01:38:41,760 --> 01:38:45,160 Speaker 28: it basically boils down to them just saying, look, Cincinnati's 1925 01:38:45,200 --> 01:38:48,280 Speaker 28: being very mean by doing this, and they shouldn't be mean, 1926 01:38:48,640 --> 01:38:51,479 Speaker 28: like they should be nice because there was no really 1927 01:38:51,720 --> 01:38:54,240 Speaker 28: like we had this case and we're going to fight 1928 01:38:54,400 --> 01:38:57,360 Speaker 28: on this ground that was just well, he made them 1929 01:38:57,400 --> 01:38:59,160 Speaker 28: so much money as the quarterback, so why are they 1930 01:38:59,200 --> 01:39:01,799 Speaker 28: even coming after And it's like that's a million dollars 1931 01:39:02,080 --> 01:39:06,080 Speaker 28: right to a team like Cincinnati. That's three starters, maybe 1932 01:39:06,160 --> 01:39:10,920 Speaker 28: four starters for the Cincinnati Bearcats, So it's extremely important 1933 01:39:10,960 --> 01:39:14,800 Speaker 28: to them. And I just think in this day and 1934 01:39:14,840 --> 01:39:17,120 Speaker 28: age where it gets so crazy and so hectic, if 1935 01:39:17,160 --> 01:39:19,400 Speaker 28: we're just gonna not live up to contracts and take 1936 01:39:19,479 --> 01:39:22,240 Speaker 28: every contract to court, it's going to get even worse. 1937 01:39:22,520 --> 01:39:25,280 Speaker 28: So I don't see the legal ground that sways being 1938 01:39:25,320 --> 01:39:28,960 Speaker 28: his team has. Maybe they'll try to claim something, but 1939 01:39:29,680 --> 01:39:31,840 Speaker 28: I think it's gonna end up with Cincinnati winning it 1940 01:39:32,000 --> 01:39:33,719 Speaker 28: and ultimately getting the buyout money. 1941 01:39:34,000 --> 01:39:36,240 Speaker 3: I think it was Chad On on a podcast that 1942 01:39:36,360 --> 01:39:40,280 Speaker 3: actually said it. It to me like we're already in uncharted, 1943 01:39:40,479 --> 01:39:43,920 Speaker 3: uncharted territory. We're already in the term that Austin loves 1944 01:39:43,960 --> 01:39:46,960 Speaker 3: to use the Wild West with where we're at. If 1945 01:39:47,840 --> 01:39:50,920 Speaker 3: if the contracts that these players are signing, that is 1946 01:39:50,960 --> 01:39:53,040 Speaker 3: the only thing that is legally trying to bind, If 1947 01:39:53,120 --> 01:39:56,760 Speaker 3: those if those don't hold up, then then what are 1948 01:39:56,800 --> 01:39:59,880 Speaker 3: we doing and how would this ever have any type 1949 01:39:59,880 --> 01:40:01,080 Speaker 3: of of lid put on it. 1950 01:40:02,760 --> 01:40:05,400 Speaker 28: Yeah, and I even think about the coach's buyout stuff, 1951 01:40:05,880 --> 01:40:10,080 Speaker 28: like at least Kansas State said, look, he embarrassed our team, 1952 01:40:10,120 --> 01:40:13,240 Speaker 28: and he has like an ethical clause in his contract 1953 01:40:13,280 --> 01:40:15,200 Speaker 28: to not embarrass our team, Like at least they. 1954 01:40:15,120 --> 01:40:16,599 Speaker 11: Can lay that out. 1955 01:40:16,680 --> 01:40:20,120 Speaker 28: And even even they were getting toasted by basically everyone 1956 01:40:20,320 --> 01:40:22,519 Speaker 28: for saying that you had no grounds to do that. 1957 01:40:24,080 --> 01:40:28,280 Speaker 11: So, yeah, you just don't see these buyouts fought very often. 1958 01:40:28,360 --> 01:40:31,280 Speaker 28: It's kind of an understanding, and it's almost like Brendan 1959 01:40:31,840 --> 01:40:33,680 Speaker 28: went to Texas Tech knowing that he would have to 1960 01:40:33,720 --> 01:40:35,960 Speaker 28: pay the buyout and he's tried to get away with it. 1961 01:40:36,200 --> 01:40:37,919 Speaker 11: Maybe not exactly sure. 1962 01:40:39,240 --> 01:40:41,960 Speaker 28: But yeah, I think Cincinnati's going to be the benefactor 1963 01:40:42,000 --> 01:40:44,919 Speaker 28: of this and end up getting the money that they're Let's. 1964 01:40:44,680 --> 01:40:46,280 Speaker 2: Talk about the basketball program. 1965 01:40:46,439 --> 01:40:49,640 Speaker 3: They come up short against Texas Tech, but they did 1966 01:40:49,720 --> 01:40:53,320 Speaker 3: find a way to win against Kansas When you look 1967 01:40:53,360 --> 01:40:55,960 Speaker 3: at the Texas Tech matchup on Tuesday, did it just 1968 01:40:56,040 --> 01:40:58,479 Speaker 3: feel like a team that had exerted so much on 1969 01:40:58,640 --> 01:41:01,200 Speaker 3: Saturday that felt me a little tired on Tuesday. 1970 01:41:03,479 --> 01:41:09,519 Speaker 28: Maybe I just think that in like I'm coming from 1971 01:41:09,560 --> 01:41:12,120 Speaker 28: a place of a journalist who covers the team. But 1972 01:41:12,240 --> 01:41:15,760 Speaker 28: it seemed like the game plan wasn't really that difficult 1973 01:41:16,040 --> 01:41:20,200 Speaker 28: for Texas Tech. It's kind of throw to at Christian Anderson, which. 1974 01:41:20,200 --> 01:41:23,080 Speaker 11: Wes says that they tried to do, and then it's 1975 01:41:23,120 --> 01:41:24,320 Speaker 11: also not allowed. 1976 01:41:24,040 --> 01:41:29,400 Speaker 28: Donovan Atwell to have open shots. And I think Texas 1977 01:41:29,439 --> 01:41:31,200 Speaker 28: Tech is kind of fragile at this point where if 1978 01:41:31,200 --> 01:41:33,439 Speaker 28: they have a poor shooting night, they're probably going to lose. 1979 01:41:34,000 --> 01:41:36,679 Speaker 28: Because you had Anderson get thirty one, you have Donovan Atwell. 1980 01:41:36,720 --> 01:41:41,000 Speaker 28: I think he had fifteen twelve or fifteen on four threes, 1981 01:41:41,640 --> 01:41:45,120 Speaker 28: So I was kind of confused by that. It seemed 1982 01:41:45,240 --> 01:41:47,560 Speaker 28: like a pretty obvious game plan for a team without j. C. 1983 01:41:47,720 --> 01:41:48,080 Speaker 2: Toppin. 1984 01:41:48,560 --> 01:41:51,000 Speaker 28: But they made shots, and ultimately, if you can get 1985 01:41:51,080 --> 01:41:53,040 Speaker 28: decent shots and make them, you're gonna have a really 1986 01:41:53,080 --> 01:41:55,519 Speaker 28: good chance to win, because you've seen since Night lose 1987 01:41:55,560 --> 01:41:59,160 Speaker 28: a lot of games for that exact reason. But yeah, 1988 01:41:59,400 --> 01:42:01,240 Speaker 28: I would definitely at least say that over that four 1989 01:42:01,280 --> 01:42:03,400 Speaker 28: game stretch they were maybe a little tired, but they 1990 01:42:03,400 --> 01:42:05,800 Speaker 28: were also coming off a bye week before the Kansas game, 1991 01:42:06,360 --> 01:42:08,960 Speaker 28: So if there's not a ton of excuses for that, 1992 01:42:09,479 --> 01:42:10,320 Speaker 28: it could also. 1993 01:42:10,160 --> 01:42:14,080 Speaker 11: Just boil down to like Texas Tech being good without JT. 1994 01:42:14,240 --> 01:42:15,479 Speaker 11: Thompson and Grant. 1995 01:42:15,560 --> 01:42:18,200 Speaker 28: McCaslin said that after the Kansas State game that he 1996 01:42:18,280 --> 01:42:20,680 Speaker 28: thought that they could actually be better just because how 1997 01:42:20,680 --> 01:42:23,840 Speaker 28: they can spread teams out, especially against teams like Cincinnati 1998 01:42:23,920 --> 01:42:26,320 Speaker 28: where the main thing is the size of sparity, and 1999 01:42:26,439 --> 01:42:27,800 Speaker 28: like you think you're just going to come in with 2000 01:42:27,880 --> 01:42:30,200 Speaker 28: Boba Miller and Usafa Chan and dominate us on both 2001 01:42:30,200 --> 01:42:32,360 Speaker 28: sides of the ball, Well, we're going to spread you out, 2002 01:42:32,479 --> 01:42:35,320 Speaker 28: have our forty eight percent three point shooter, try to 2003 01:42:35,360 --> 01:42:37,719 Speaker 28: bury as many threes as you can and ended up working. 2004 01:42:38,520 --> 01:42:42,320 Speaker 3: That being said, they have a matchup Saturday at home 2005 01:42:42,360 --> 01:42:46,400 Speaker 3: against Oklahoma State BYU shorthanded comes into town, and then 2006 01:42:46,400 --> 01:42:49,000 Speaker 3: they finish on the road at TCU. You could make 2007 01:42:49,040 --> 01:42:50,760 Speaker 3: the argument on how they could win all three of 2008 01:42:50,800 --> 01:42:53,599 Speaker 3: those games. If you make that argument, does this team 2009 01:42:53,720 --> 01:42:57,840 Speaker 3: going into the Big twelve Tournament present at all a 2010 01:42:58,080 --> 01:42:59,840 Speaker 3: chance at a at an NCAA tournament. 2011 01:43:02,040 --> 01:43:05,160 Speaker 28: I think if they I don't know the exact math 2012 01:43:05,240 --> 01:43:06,599 Speaker 28: on it, but I think if they win the next 2013 01:43:06,680 --> 01:43:08,519 Speaker 28: three that gives them a really good chance to get 2014 01:43:08,560 --> 01:43:10,600 Speaker 28: a first round by in the Big tof tournament and 2015 01:43:10,800 --> 01:43:13,840 Speaker 28: kind of get into that seven or eight seed instead 2016 01:43:13,880 --> 01:43:16,040 Speaker 28: of being the nine or worst seed than you have 2017 01:43:16,160 --> 01:43:18,360 Speaker 28: to play on the first day. I think if they 2018 01:43:18,400 --> 01:43:21,040 Speaker 28: were to win out and then get two games in 2019 01:43:21,120 --> 01:43:24,080 Speaker 28: the Big TOLF Tournament, because that mean win two games, 2020 01:43:24,640 --> 01:43:26,360 Speaker 28: that means that second win is. 2021 01:43:26,400 --> 01:43:29,360 Speaker 11: A really really good team. Maybe a quad one win. 2022 01:43:30,760 --> 01:43:32,560 Speaker 28: Probably is a quad one win because you just have 2023 01:43:32,640 --> 01:43:34,639 Speaker 28: to be top fifty in the net on the neutral site. 2024 01:43:35,040 --> 01:43:36,400 Speaker 28: I think that would put them in a really good 2025 01:43:36,439 --> 01:43:39,960 Speaker 28: position come selection Sunday. And there's also so much chaos 2026 01:43:40,040 --> 01:43:41,960 Speaker 28: that can go around them that can help them, Like 2027 01:43:42,120 --> 01:43:44,760 Speaker 28: Indiana is just lost at home to Northwestern and they're 2028 01:43:44,800 --> 01:43:47,280 Speaker 28: a bubble team, So I think it's that time of 2029 01:43:47,400 --> 01:43:50,160 Speaker 28: year to be monitoring other schools and what they're doing 2030 01:43:50,240 --> 01:43:53,080 Speaker 28: and how they're performing, and maybe you can make a 2031 01:43:53,200 --> 01:43:57,320 Speaker 28: case for Cincinnati to get in there. But beating the 2032 01:43:57,479 --> 01:44:01,519 Speaker 28: UIUS is going to be tough. They're coming off one 2033 01:44:01,560 --> 01:44:02,880 Speaker 28: of the worst losses I've seen this. 2034 01:44:03,040 --> 01:44:05,479 Speaker 11: Entire college basketball season the UCF. I think they were 2035 01:44:05,680 --> 01:44:06,080 Speaker 11: kind like. 2036 01:44:06,200 --> 01:44:10,280 Speaker 28: Thirty at halftime or something like that. So it's it's 2037 01:44:10,400 --> 01:44:13,240 Speaker 28: tough to win three games in a row. But you know, 2038 01:44:13,720 --> 01:44:16,240 Speaker 28: they're still playing pretty good basketball. 2039 01:44:16,360 --> 01:44:18,800 Speaker 11: I agreed with Wes saying the offense wasn't that bad 2040 01:44:18,840 --> 01:44:20,960 Speaker 11: against Texas Tech. They just weren't making shots. 2041 01:44:21,840 --> 01:44:24,040 Speaker 28: And I would be really surprised if the defense doesn't 2042 01:44:24,040 --> 01:44:26,320 Speaker 28: bounce back after such a poor showing in Love. 2043 01:44:26,240 --> 01:44:31,679 Speaker 2: It before we let you go Keegan. For Wes Miller, 2044 01:44:32,040 --> 01:44:34,200 Speaker 2: what does this mean? What does this change? 2045 01:44:34,400 --> 01:44:37,080 Speaker 3: If they are able to win out and let's say, 2046 01:44:37,800 --> 01:44:40,200 Speaker 3: you know, albeit, I know the start of the year 2047 01:44:40,920 --> 01:44:43,800 Speaker 3: was a disaster. I know that that things were bad 2048 01:44:43,880 --> 01:44:46,240 Speaker 3: early on for this team, But if you look up 2049 01:44:46,280 --> 01:44:48,240 Speaker 3: at the end of the year and you have a 2050 01:44:48,320 --> 01:44:52,800 Speaker 3: team in arguably the best conference in basketball in the Bearcats, 2051 01:44:52,880 --> 01:44:55,000 Speaker 3: that could finish ten and eight in that conference, is 2052 01:44:55,040 --> 01:44:57,120 Speaker 3: that enough that that you're running it back next year? 2053 01:44:57,160 --> 01:45:01,240 Speaker 28: With Wes Miller, I think if they went out the 2054 01:45:01,280 --> 01:45:05,599 Speaker 28: regular season and grab one game the Big Teal Tournament, 2055 01:45:06,120 --> 01:45:09,360 Speaker 28: it's not a foregone conclusion that he gets fired at 2056 01:45:09,400 --> 01:45:09,719 Speaker 28: the end. 2057 01:45:09,600 --> 01:45:09,960 Speaker 25: Of the year. 2058 01:45:10,320 --> 01:45:12,400 Speaker 28: I think if they go too in one and then 2059 01:45:12,600 --> 01:45:15,040 Speaker 28: they maybe lose the first game or get blown out 2060 01:45:15,040 --> 01:45:17,440 Speaker 28: in the second one, then it's probably. 2061 01:45:17,200 --> 01:45:21,360 Speaker 11: A foe gone conclusion. I just think, like, if you're 2062 01:45:21,400 --> 01:45:24,479 Speaker 11: not putting yourself in a position to be have your 2063 01:45:24,560 --> 01:45:26,000 Speaker 11: name called on such Sunday. 2064 01:45:26,800 --> 01:45:30,600 Speaker 28: After year five, you just have to move on. And 2065 01:45:30,760 --> 01:45:33,200 Speaker 28: even if they were to win out three games and 2066 01:45:33,280 --> 01:45:35,360 Speaker 28: barely miss the bubble, I still think it would be 2067 01:45:35,360 --> 01:45:37,040 Speaker 28: in their best interest to move on and try to 2068 01:45:37,040 --> 01:45:39,679 Speaker 28: figure out a way to negotiate that buyout down. 2069 01:45:40,960 --> 01:45:44,439 Speaker 11: But from an eighties perspective, as I've said before, if. 2070 01:45:44,280 --> 01:45:45,960 Speaker 28: They can find a reason to not pay him so 2071 01:45:46,080 --> 01:45:48,719 Speaker 28: much money and say we think that he's building something, 2072 01:45:49,040 --> 01:45:52,479 Speaker 28: sure they'll try to find that reason and try to 2073 01:45:52,520 --> 01:45:56,080 Speaker 28: run it back for the financial sake of the university. 2074 01:45:56,520 --> 01:45:58,880 Speaker 28: But I just think you have to move on after 2075 01:45:58,960 --> 01:46:02,280 Speaker 28: five years, like you're in the Big twelve, you have 2076 01:46:02,400 --> 01:46:05,160 Speaker 28: to try something different. This isn't really the acc with 2077 01:46:05,240 --> 01:46:08,680 Speaker 28: Steve Forbes getting the seventh season at despite. 2078 01:46:08,360 --> 01:46:09,679 Speaker 11: Not making the NCAA tournament. 2079 01:46:10,760 --> 01:46:14,040 Speaker 28: So in Cincinnati fans definitely have higher expectations for the 2080 01:46:14,080 --> 01:46:16,560 Speaker 28: basketball program than Wake Forest fans do. 2081 01:46:17,080 --> 01:46:19,519 Speaker 3: Now are you are you heading home after today? Are 2082 01:46:19,560 --> 01:46:21,839 Speaker 3: you staying at the combine for another night? What's your schedule? 2083 01:46:23,120 --> 01:46:27,639 Speaker 28: Jeff Caldwell talks tomorrow at ten I think, and Jake 2084 01:46:27,680 --> 01:46:29,720 Speaker 28: Bolde is going to start on field drills here in 2085 01:46:29,800 --> 01:46:33,000 Speaker 28: about forty five minutes now looking forward to seeing what 2086 01:46:33,080 --> 01:46:33,559 Speaker 28: he does. 2087 01:46:33,560 --> 01:46:36,040 Speaker 3: Now the combine doesn't go into all hours of the night. 2088 01:46:36,080 --> 01:46:38,680 Speaker 3: What else are you doing to pass your time in Indianapolis? 2089 01:46:38,720 --> 01:46:40,880 Speaker 3: Are you going to check out the Pacers and Hornets tonight? 2090 01:46:40,920 --> 01:46:42,920 Speaker 3: Do you have dinner plans? What's the rest of the 2091 01:46:43,000 --> 01:46:44,760 Speaker 3: night look like for Kig and Nickoson and Indy? 2092 01:46:46,240 --> 01:46:49,040 Speaker 11: I would actually rather watch Paint drys. 2093 01:46:48,800 --> 01:46:53,559 Speaker 28: And go see an NBA game, Okay, so I think. 2094 01:46:53,560 --> 01:46:55,680 Speaker 2: I mean, if it's not the pas of the Hoosiers, 2095 01:46:58,360 --> 01:46:59,240 Speaker 2: I think I'm gonna go. 2096 01:47:00,000 --> 01:47:05,559 Speaker 11: They go to Planet Fitness at some point. Wow, Joe, 2097 01:47:06,520 --> 01:47:08,800 Speaker 11: dinner by myself at a bar somewhere and then. 2098 01:47:08,760 --> 01:47:10,960 Speaker 2: Go to bed. Hold on a second for a guy 2099 01:47:11,280 --> 01:47:15,160 Speaker 2: who a living for a living watches one of the 2100 01:47:15,280 --> 01:47:19,000 Speaker 2: worst offensive basketball programs on the planet. Wow, you don't 2101 01:47:19,080 --> 01:47:22,519 Speaker 2: want to go to an NBA game just to just 2102 01:47:22,600 --> 01:47:25,560 Speaker 2: to be reminded? I want to You didn't want to 2103 01:47:25,560 --> 01:47:27,360 Speaker 2: set a bar high? That's what it's supposed to look 2104 01:47:27,400 --> 01:47:30,400 Speaker 2: like by the way those guys can score the basketball.

We have Al Stewart 2153 01:50:00,520 --> 01:50:03,640 Speaker 2: bomb yesterday as well. Big Sally turned on one that 2154 01:50:03,880 --> 01:50:07,160 Speaker 2: was like up under his elbows yep, and launched it 2155 01:50:07,240 --> 01:50:10,479 Speaker 2: out like a scud missile right over the wall and left. 2156 01:50:10,640 --> 01:50:14,040 Speaker 3: South Stewart and JJ Bledet combined for over nine hundred 2157 01:50:14,080 --> 01:50:17,680 Speaker 3: feet of home runs yesterday, four point forty off the 2158 01:50:17,760 --> 01:50:18,599 Speaker 3: South Stewart bat. 2159 01:50:18,760 --> 01:50:20,360 Speaker 2: If you go and look at like because I was 2160 01:50:20,439 --> 01:50:23,599 Speaker 2: running the game, so I had like the MLB Game 2161 01:50:23,720 --> 01:50:25,640 Speaker 2: Day thing where they showed like the pitches come in. 2162 01:50:26,400 --> 01:50:30,200 Speaker 2: That pitch was so far inside it's incredible. He got 2163 01:50:30,280 --> 01:50:31,920 Speaker 2: that around to it the barrel to it. Now. I 2164 01:50:31,960 --> 01:50:33,680 Speaker 2: don't know that he should be making a habit of 2165 01:50:33,720 --> 01:50:36,360 Speaker 2: swinging at those pitches, but if you're gonna put him over. 2166 01:50:36,320 --> 01:50:38,600 Speaker 3: The wall, yep, go ahead. Also a good outing, I 2167 01:50:38,640 --> 01:50:41,000 Speaker 3: thought from Nicolodolo. He did allow two hits and two innings, 2168 01:50:41,000 --> 01:50:43,840 Speaker 3: but struck out four batters, did not walk a batter, 2169 01:50:44,000 --> 01:50:48,320 Speaker 3: and for the second straight game, Red's pitching combined only 2170 01:50:48,479 --> 01:50:52,320 Speaker 3: allows one walk. They're getting better, so worked on the 2171 01:50:52,520 --> 01:50:56,160 Speaker 3: uh a little bit of the control. Luis May had 2172 01:50:56,160 --> 01:51:00,880 Speaker 3: a good outing yesterday, a three strikeout, perfect inning, so 2173 01:51:01,040 --> 01:51:03,799 Speaker 3: good stuff. From the Reds yesterday. Good stuff from Lodolo 2174 01:51:04,040 --> 01:51:08,080 Speaker 3: Blaedet South Stuart. They turn around today for their fifth 2175 01:51:08,320 --> 01:51:10,920 Speaker 3: spring training game against the Padres. How will that one 2176 01:51:11,000 --> 01:51:11,439 Speaker 3: shape up? 2177 01:51:11,680 --> 01:51:14,680 Speaker 2: Well, Tony, Here's how the Red Legs will line them up. 2178 01:51:14,680 --> 01:51:17,240 Speaker 2: It's a three zero five first pitch in Goodyear back 2179 01:51:17,280 --> 01:51:20,840 Speaker 2: home for the Red Legs against San Diego. Here is 2180 01:51:20,920 --> 01:51:24,400 Speaker 2: how it will line up. This is interesting from the 2181 01:51:24,600 --> 01:51:30,599 Speaker 2: very start. Leading off and playing left field, TJ Friedel 2182 01:51:30,680 --> 01:51:34,360 Speaker 2: Okay batting second. The second baseman, Matt McClean, Lie de 2183 01:51:34,479 --> 01:51:38,120 Speaker 2: Lacruz bats third. He's the shortstop. Au Haneo Suarez is 2184 01:51:38,160 --> 01:51:41,599 Speaker 2: the cleanup hitter and third baseman. Spencer Steer will bat 2185 01:51:41,720 --> 01:51:44,719 Speaker 2: fifth and play first. Will Benson is the DH. He's 2186 01:51:44,800 --> 01:51:47,960 Speaker 2: the sixth batter Okay. The seventh batter is right fielder 2187 01:51:48,080 --> 01:51:51,400 Speaker 2: Noel V. Marte. Batting eighth and playing center field is 2188 01:51:51,560 --> 01:51:55,960 Speaker 2: Dane Myers. The ninth batter and catcher is Will Banfield, 2189 01:51:56,240 --> 01:52:01,120 Speaker 2: who with the hurler Chase Burns on the mound once more. 2190 01:52:01,160 --> 01:52:07,400 Speaker 2: For Cincinnati, it's Freedol McClean, de la Cruz, Swarez, Steer, Benson, Marte, Myers, 2191 01:52:07,560 --> 01:52:12,600 Speaker 2: Banfield with Burns on the mound. The notables there Sworez 2192 01:52:12,720 --> 01:52:17,559 Speaker 2: in the field at third, Friedel in left, and Spencer 2193 01:52:17,640 --> 01:52:20,679 Speaker 2: Steer has not yet played the outfield in a spring 2194 01:52:20,800 --> 01:52:24,400 Speaker 2: training game, he gets the start at first base. Here's 2195 01:52:24,439 --> 01:52:27,599 Speaker 2: the lineup of pitchers that are scheduled to appear today 2196 01:52:28,120 --> 01:52:32,080 Speaker 2: against the Padres, and not only is it Chase Burns tone, 2197 01:52:32,120 --> 01:52:36,000 Speaker 2: it's also Chase Petty. Okay, don't believe he is related 2198 01:52:36,080 --> 01:52:38,920 Speaker 2: to Richard or Kyle or any of the Petty Racing 2199 01:52:39,040 --> 01:52:42,160 Speaker 2: royalty family. Graham Ashcraft will come in and try not 2200 01:52:42,240 --> 01:52:45,559 Speaker 2: to walk the first batter he faces. Connor Phillips, tj 2201 01:52:45,800 --> 01:52:50,000 Speaker 2: Antone friend of the Show, and Big Sugar Zach Maxwell 2202 01:52:50,600 --> 01:52:54,439 Speaker 2: all scheduled to pitch today for the Red Legs. I 2203 01:52:54,760 --> 01:52:57,719 Speaker 2: think Hunter will pitch in his first game Hunter Green, 2204 01:52:58,240 --> 01:52:59,320 Speaker 2: tomorrow afternoon. 2205 01:52:59,840 --> 01:53:02,920 Speaker 3: The fact too, that you're ideally gonna get Chase Burns 2206 01:53:02,960 --> 01:53:07,240 Speaker 3: some reps against Fernando Tatis, Junior, Manny Machado and Ty 2207 01:53:07,320 --> 01:53:08,640 Speaker 3: France are all in the lineup today for. 2208 01:53:08,640 --> 01:53:11,880 Speaker 2: The potre That's right, Franz had a nice little with 2209 01:53:11,960 --> 01:53:14,760 Speaker 2: the Reds. He did. I got no beef with Ty France. 2210 01:53:14,520 --> 01:53:17,080 Speaker 3: So give Chase Burns some of bouts against some good 2211 01:53:17,120 --> 01:53:19,920 Speaker 3: hitters as well. I like it for the Cincinnati Reds 2212 01:53:19,960 --> 01:53:23,080 Speaker 3: now we like I think that the the ceiling and 2213 01:53:23,360 --> 01:53:26,400 Speaker 3: the opportunity for the Reds this season to maybe do 2214 01:53:26,600 --> 01:53:31,360 Speaker 3: some some good things. I don't think nationally people are 2215 01:53:31,439 --> 01:53:35,320 Speaker 3: viewing the red Legs too high. They David Schoenfield ESPN 2216 01:53:35,400 --> 01:53:39,479 Speaker 3: dot Com went ahead and looked ahead and projected all 2217 01:53:39,600 --> 01:53:42,040 Speaker 3: stars out of the American and National League. Hunter Green 2218 01:53:42,160 --> 01:53:45,120 Speaker 3: was the only all Star that would represent the Cincinnati Reds. 2219 01:53:45,160 --> 01:53:49,960 Speaker 3: But it's how ESPN dot Com and Brad Doolittle, who 2220 01:53:50,000 --> 01:53:52,920 Speaker 3: we've referenced on times of this show, he ranked every 2221 01:53:53,720 --> 01:53:58,360 Speaker 3: Major League baseball lineup from just a hitting standpoint. He 2222 01:53:58,479 --> 01:54:03,479 Speaker 3: had the Reds ranked all the way down below the Cubs, 2223 01:54:03,960 --> 01:54:08,200 Speaker 3: below the Brewers, below the Pittsburgh Pirates. He is the 2224 01:54:08,240 --> 01:54:10,639 Speaker 3: Reds coming in just ahead of the Cardinals at twenty 2225 01:54:10,680 --> 01:54:13,400 Speaker 3: fourth overall. Listen to the grades that he gives the 2226 01:54:13,439 --> 01:54:20,400 Speaker 3: Reds hitting D patience C power D plus, base running 2227 01:54:20,479 --> 01:54:27,280 Speaker 3: B plus, durability C plus, depth C versus right handed pitcher. 2228 01:54:27,640 --> 01:54:31,760 Speaker 3: He gives them an F versus left handed pitcher, a 2229 01:54:31,880 --> 01:54:35,040 Speaker 3: C minus. He claims that they have two stars and 2230 01:54:35,240 --> 01:54:44,200 Speaker 3: three holes on the roster. Are the Reds offensively being 2231 01:54:44,280 --> 01:54:48,480 Speaker 3: slept on in any way? For what it's worth, Doolittle 2232 01:54:48,520 --> 01:54:51,280 Speaker 3: has the base lineup for the Reds as Friedel, Marte, 2233 01:54:52,000 --> 01:54:57,440 Speaker 3: Ellie Suarez, Stuart Stevenson, Blade McClain and Hayes. 2234 01:55:00,000 --> 01:55:02,080 Speaker 2: Oh, I don't think so. I think that's a fair 2235 01:55:02,120 --> 01:55:04,720 Speaker 2: assessment at the team. Matt McCain was horrible last year. 2236 01:55:05,080 --> 01:55:07,960 Speaker 2: Ke Brian Hayes has always been a terrible batter. Spencer 2237 01:55:08,200 --> 01:55:10,600 Speaker 2: or south Stewart, you don't know much about him as 2238 01:55:10,600 --> 01:55:14,000 Speaker 2: they're a full big league season at all. Ellie de 2239 01:55:14,120 --> 01:55:15,640 Speaker 2: la Cruz fell off the face of the earth in 2240 01:55:15,680 --> 01:55:18,600 Speaker 2: the second half of last year. Au Haaneo Suarez strikes 2241 01:55:18,640 --> 01:55:21,360 Speaker 2: out as much as anybody in Major League Baseball. TJ. 2242 01:55:21,480 --> 01:55:23,360 Speaker 2: Friedel kind of fell off at the end of last 2243 01:55:23,440 --> 01:55:26,880 Speaker 2: year as well. It is a prove it year for 2244 01:55:26,960 --> 01:55:29,800 Speaker 2: a lot of these guys, and last year they were 2245 01:55:29,840 --> 01:55:32,440 Speaker 2: one of the worst offenses in baseball. They didn't hit 2246 01:55:32,480 --> 01:55:33,960 Speaker 2: the ball out of the ballpark, they didn't hit the 2247 01:55:34,000 --> 01:55:36,360 Speaker 2: ball in the gaps, they didn't have timely hitting. They 2248 01:55:36,400 --> 01:55:39,520 Speaker 2: weren't good with runners in scoring position. Until you prove 2249 01:55:39,600 --> 01:55:41,800 Speaker 2: that you can do otherwise with a group that's mostly 2250 01:55:41,880 --> 01:55:44,840 Speaker 2: the same. Even adding the home runs of au Haneo 2251 01:55:44,920 --> 01:55:47,840 Speaker 2: Suarez may not matter if you can't do the rest 2252 01:55:47,880 --> 01:55:49,919 Speaker 2: of that stuff. So I think that's a fair assessment. 2253 01:55:50,120 --> 01:55:53,200 Speaker 3: It has their wins based on the lineup, So you 2254 01:55:53,280 --> 01:55:56,640 Speaker 3: take the pitching staff out, they have them as the 2255 01:55:56,720 --> 01:55:59,880 Speaker 3: same win total as the Saint Louis Cardinals just based 2256 01:55:59,880 --> 01:56:01,400 Speaker 3: on the line up. Now the pitching is going to 2257 01:56:01,440 --> 01:56:03,280 Speaker 3: help obviously the Reds, and that's where you see their 2258 01:56:03,320 --> 01:56:05,640 Speaker 3: totals kind of bounce back to where they are. But 2259 01:56:05,840 --> 01:56:09,880 Speaker 3: seventy seven point nine based on just the offense for 2260 01:56:09,960 --> 01:56:12,880 Speaker 3: the Reds, that's twenty fourth in Major League Baseball. So 2261 01:56:12,920 --> 01:56:15,040 Speaker 3: that's where they're viewed in that sense, and obviously that's 2262 01:56:15,920 --> 01:56:19,040 Speaker 3: not how they're always viewed locally or maybe the upside 2263 01:56:19,080 --> 01:56:21,040 Speaker 3: of what some of these players can do. But to 2264 01:56:21,160 --> 01:56:25,320 Speaker 3: your point, South Stewart's an unknown. How does Bledat fit in? 2265 01:56:25,880 --> 01:56:29,600 Speaker 3: McLain and Hayes not great options.
