Speaker 3: It's the bill Yep, that's more of a nose tackle

27
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 3: type of guy.

28
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 4: Mm hm.

29
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 3: So I don't know how much the Bengals are interested

30
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 3: in that specific iteration of the d tackle and maybe TJ.

31
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 3: Slayton sticks around. Yeah, but yeah, uh.

32
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 2: Let's go some college basketball here. Let's let's talk about

33
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 2: the weekend that was, and we'll get some West Miller

34
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 2: audio here at the end if we can. Friday night,

35
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 2: you want to talk about starting off the weekend with

36
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 2: a bang, One of the most exciting games of the

37
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 2: college basketball season happened in Athens, Ohio. I'm talking about

38
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 2: from the stakes, to the atmosphere and the crowd. The

39
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 2: game had a little bit of everything, including both teams

40
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 2: reaching the century mark. At the end of the second half.

41
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 2: It was one hundred to one hundred. OHU had chances

42
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 2: they had a chance to win it. On a floater

43
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 2: in the lane. It did not go their way. Miami

44
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:36,080
Speaker 2: did enough in overtime to win it one ten to

45
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:40,079
Speaker 2: one oh eight. You think back, there were five or

46
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,400
Speaker 2: six games that could have easily won against Miami. They

47
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 2: found ways to win them all, including Friday night. They

48
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 2: cap off a thirty one to oh regular season. They

49
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 2: did so Austin with arguably their best player, Peter Soonter,

50
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 2: going two for eight from the field. Now he went

51
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 2: nine from the foul line, but Ian Elmer went off

52
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:10,239
Speaker 2: for thirty two for the Miami RedHawks. They win thirty,

53
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 2: they go to thirty one to zero, and what I

54
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,079
Speaker 2: think they punched their ticket to the NCAA Tournament now,

55
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 2: regardless of what happens in the MAC Tournament, I think

56
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 2: they're in. Jackson Paveleski, the ou point guard, played forty

57
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 2: five minutes, had thirty seven points, had a chance to

58
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 2: win it in overtime, and win it at the end

59
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 2: of regulation. Both shots just off. Congratulations to Travis Steele

60
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 2: and the Miami RedHawks for their win on Friday night

61
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 2: and completing an unbelievable, unbelievable regular season. Up next for Miami,

62
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 2: they have UMass on Thursday in their first game in

63
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 2: the MAC Tournament. U Mass is a team that did

64
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 2: play them pretty well both times they played this year.

65
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 2: Other winners over the weekend. Louisville had themselves out of

66
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 2: the ACC A very big win over the weekend, a

67
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 2: top twenty five win over Miami, which means Louisville in

68
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 2: the ACC tournament will play tomorrow at two thirty.

69
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:17,840
Speaker 3: They will, await, I believe the.

70
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 2: Winner of Syracuse and SMU if I'm not mistaken, but

71
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 2: ACC Tournament for Louisville gets underway tomorrow. Other winners over

72
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 2: the weekend, Austin. You were there, you saw it. Ohio State.

73
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 2: They win, Bruce Thornton becomes the all time leading scorer,

74
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:40,919
Speaker 2: and I would assume with their win over Indiana that

75
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 2: Ohio State will be an NC DOUBLEA tournament team. Did

76
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 2: they look like an NC Tournament NC DOUBLEA Tournament team to.

77
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 3: You, Well, I'll tell you what. In the first half

78
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,799
Speaker 3: they did. I mean, they shot lights out and Amari

79
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 3: Biningham played spectacularly. They've just continued to play better basketball

80
00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 3: over the last couple of weeks. And the big win

81
00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 3: over for Purdue and then to shoot lights out the

82
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 3: way they did. I thought they kind of got into

83
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 3: a bit of a lull in the second half against Indiana.

84
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 3: I think my biggest takeaway was in Indiana stinks. I mean,

85
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 3: they got one guy who's really really good, number three.

86
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 3: He can fill it up. I think he's averaging like

87
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 3: twenty a game and nobody else is even close to that.

88
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 3: He's the coach's son. He's a beast. Yeah, he's a beast.

89
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 3: But other than that, yeah, I mean, I think Ohio

90
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,159
Speaker 3: State has basically punched their ticket.

91
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 2: We mentioned NKU earlier in the day. They play Right

92
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,799
Speaker 2: State in the semis tonight of the Horizon League Tournament.

93
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 2: That's a seven o'clock tip the teams that lost over

94
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 2: the weekend. The Dayton Flyers lost to VCU on Friday night.

95
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 2: That means now Dayton would obviously have to win the

96
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 2: A ten Tournament to have any chance at advancing. They

97
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,280
Speaker 2: get underway, I believe they still did get the double buys,

98
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:56,720
Speaker 2: so they don't play until Friday. In the quarterfinals of

99
00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:01,720
Speaker 2: the A ten Tournament, Xavier law over the weekend to Villanova.

100
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,480
Speaker 2: They did so without the services of the Big East

101
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 2: leading scorer, Trey Carroll, who was out due to a

102
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,840
Speaker 2: hip injury. But now that opens the door for the

103
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 2: Big East Tournament. Xavier would obviously have to go on

104
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 2: a run. It's one of the most story tournaments all

105
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 2: of basketball Madison Square Garden, and I think if you

106
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 2: at least go by seating purposes, I don't think Xavier

107
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 2: has a terrible path. If they're going to try to

108
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:34,919
Speaker 2: make a run they get, They'll take on Marquette first,

109
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 2: and then I think the winner of that would take

110
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 2: on I believe.

111
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 3: Seaton Hall crighton.

112
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:43,159
Speaker 2: I would have to look to confirm, but I do

113
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 2: know Xavier gets underway Wednesday against Marquette at six point

114
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,600
Speaker 2: thirty at Madison Square Garden. The game that will impact

115
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 2: us here on Sincy three to sixty happens because of

116
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 2: a slew of things that happened over the weekend. To

117
00:06:56,279 --> 00:07:03,239
Speaker 2: the Kentucky Wildcats, they got domin dominated at Rupp Arena.

118
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 2: The final score was not indicative to how bad this

119
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 2: game was for Kentucky had finished eighty four to seventy seven.

120
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 2: They were down forty nine to thirty two at the half. Kentucky,

121
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 2: who had felt like Austin. You remember a couple of

122
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 2: weeks ago they were going to Florida to play for

123
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 2: a lead in the SEC. Could have been the top

124
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 2: team in the SEC at the time. They fall all

125
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 2: the way to ten and eight in the SEC. And

126
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 2: what it sets up for us is unfortunate because Kentucky's

127
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 2: game Wednesday against the sixteen seeded LSU Tigers will happen

128
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 2: at twelve thirty in the afternoon with Kentucky pregame and postgame.

129
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 2: That means we will not have a show on Wednesday.

130
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 2: Will carry Kentucky basketball, and then if they win, they

131
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 2: would run it back again on Thursday against the Missouri Tigers,

132
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 2: so that would obviously impact our show. If they were

133
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 2: to beat Missouri, they would Florida at one on Friday,

134
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:05,640
Speaker 2: which would again impact our show. But for now we

135
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 2: know we're not going to have a show because of

136
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 2: Kentucky basketball. We'll be right here on ESPN fifteen thirty

137
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 2: on Wednesday. And then you have what happened to the

138
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 2: Cincinnati Bearcats, And you want to talk about a lot

139
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 2: to play for and essentially a lot to lose when

140
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 2: you look at what happened to you See on Saturday,

141
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 2: I thought you See had a chance in that game

142
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 2: to give themselves a great opportunity to go to Kansas

143
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,679
Speaker 2: City and win one game and be in the NCAA tournament,

144
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 2: not only because of what UC's done, but it felt

145
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,559
Speaker 2: like every other single Bubble team that you See needed

146
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 2: to lose actually lost, but you See did not take

147
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:45,840
Speaker 2: advantage of it, in large part due to a game

148
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,240
Speaker 2: that felt like what we watched more so in the

149
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 2: beginning of the season and not the end of the season.

150
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 2: For the Bearcats, they were lost at times on offense.

151
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:55,960
Speaker 2: They got one field goal in the game from Boba Miller.

152
00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 2: TCU style of play and their pressure and aggressiveness made

153
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 2: things very uncomfortable on Mustapha cham and Bobby Miller, who

154
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,439
Speaker 2: had been so great as of late. Those two combined

155
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 2: to go five of twelve from the field and just

156
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 2: twelve points between both of them. Boby Miller did add

157
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 2: fourteen rebounds, that was not enough. Jalen Celestine had twelve,

158
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 2: Daydae Thomas had nineteen, and Gisel James had eleven. The

159
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,959
Speaker 2: biggest disappointment I had in the game is in watching it,

160
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 2: it felt like U See didn't play with urgency. They

161
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,680
Speaker 2: were late to a lot of loose balls, they were

162
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 2: not the more aggressive team, and in a must win game,

163
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 2: what felt like your season on the line. Uc came

164
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 2: out and turned the ball over nineteen times, nineteen turnovers.

165
00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:48,559
Speaker 2: To put it into perspective, they had six all night

166
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 2: against BYU in their previous home game, nineteen turnovers. TCU

167
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 2: shot the ball forty four percent from the field. The

168
00:09:56,559 --> 00:10:01,440
Speaker 2: Bearcats out rebounded TCU. Turnovers just too much of a

169
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 2: problem twenty four to seven in points off turnovers, and

170
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,440
Speaker 2: TCU dominated in the paint a lot of layups off

171
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 2: those turnovers, thirty to fourteen in the paint. An unfortunate

172
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 2: loss for the Cincinnati Bearcats twofold one because a win

173
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 2: would I thought, put them in great, great standing with

174
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,959
Speaker 2: the NCAA Tournament. It would have also given them the

175
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 2: number six seed in the Big twelve Tournament. The sixth

176
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 2: seed would have allowed this team a first round by

177
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,720
Speaker 2: They would have played the winner of Colorado and Oklahoma State,

178
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 2: and if they could have won that game, they would

179
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 2: have played Kansas, and I think if they would have

180
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 2: beat Colorado Oklahoma State, I think they would have been

181
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 2: in the dance. Now Cincinnati falls all the way to

182
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 2: the nine seed. They will play tomorrow at two pm

183
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 2: against Utah the winner of that will take on UCF

184
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,200
Speaker 2: and I think both of those games are winnable for UC.

185
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,839
Speaker 2: But the one team that it felt like you wanted

186
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 2: to avoid if you were the Cincinnati Bearcats or any

187
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 2: Big twelve team, would have been Arizona, And by sliding

188
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 2: from the sixth to the nine, UC would have to

189
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 2: play and probably at this point beat Arizona for any

190
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 2: chance of an at large bid into the NCAA Tournament.

191
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 2: But first a two pm start tomorrow against Utah with

192
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,840
Speaker 2: a chance to play on Wednesday, and then a chance

193
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:25,880
Speaker 2: to punch your ticket to play Arizona. Do we have

194
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 2: any Wes Miller audio from postgame Austin.

195
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,440
Speaker 3: We have about a minute and twenty seconds of him

196
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,680
Speaker 3: with Terry Nelson. It's not the best they had to

197
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 3: do it kind of record it, but starting with Terry

198
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 3: asking him, how do you think your team played tonight

199
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 3: against TCU.

200
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 5: Well, nineteen turnovers, Terry, I thought was the factor in

201
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 5: the game. There's some loose balls that we didn't get

202
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 5: that I think are the factor in the game, and

203
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 5: that's the difference.

204
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 3: You know.

205
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 5: Outside of that, I got nothing to complain about big picture,

206
00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 5: but the nineteen turnovers, the way they can those and

207
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 5: some of the loose balls. That'd be the thing that

208
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 5: I'm disappointed in.

209
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:05,720
Speaker 6: It seems as if you couldn't get a chance to

210
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,440
Speaker 6: establish the post game because they doubled and pushed everything

211
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 6: out and the head of hard time connecting with the

212
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 6: other guards.

213
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's the big twelve on the road, right, And

214
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:18,319
Speaker 5: they were extremely physical with us in the box and

215
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 5: we're not even in the bonus and I thought that

216
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 5: had a factor.

217
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 3: But that's the big twelve. That's that's the big twelve

218
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 3: on the road.

219
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 5: You're not going to get calls, those bumps at the basket,

220
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,680
Speaker 5: you're not getting them. And we weren't able to play

221
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 5: inside out like we've been doing so effectively.

222
00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 3: You know for a long time. Now. We'll be your

223
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 3: message to your team. Oh man, we just we got

224
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 3: to get out of here.

225
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:40,959
Speaker 5: We got to get home and get rest, and we

226
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 5: got to get ready to play on Tuesday.

227
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 3: That's it.

228
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 5: Like it's march time, it's winter, go home time. So

229
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 5: we talked very quickly about what I just said to you.

230
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,839
Speaker 5: Nineteen turnovers, loose balls, a couple of shots that were

231
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 5: like turnovers that led to baskets, and then we talked

232
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 5: about we got to get the heck out of here quickly.

233
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:00,200
Speaker 5: We got to go get them rest and got to

234
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 5: just focus all our time and attention on getting ready

235
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:02,840
Speaker 5: to play on Tuesday.

236
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 2: So that is what wes Miller had to say. The

237
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 2: turnover is the biggest point I think in the game.

238
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 2: You're not going to win a game against anyone with

239
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 2: nineteen turnovers. Disappointing because the opportunity was wide open this

240
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:18,840
Speaker 2: weekend for the Cincinnati Bearcats, who again will reset and

241
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 2: play tomorrow afternoon at two o'clock to keep there season alive.

242
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:24,520
Speaker 2: It's win or go home, as wes Miller said, at

243
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 2: this point, feels to me like they need three. They

244
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 2: got to get three this week in Kansas City, and

245
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,200
Speaker 2: one of those would have to be against one of

246
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 2: the best teams in the country, the Arizona Wildcats. That

247
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 2: takes place later in the week. When we come back,

248
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:39,680
Speaker 2: Let's get you set on all things that have happened

249
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 2: in the last fifteen minutes or so in the National

250
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 2: Football League and talk a little bit about what the

251
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,600
Speaker 2: Reds got going on as well. On ESPN fifteen thirty

Speaker 7: No scripts, no filters, just pure sports talk Moegar today

Speaker 7: at three pm on ESPN fifteen point thirty.

255
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 2: Welcome back since he three to sixty ESPN fifteen thirty

256
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 2: Cincinnati Sports Station. I'll tell you what Austin Jets are

257
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 2: spending some money today. The New York Football Jets have

258
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 2: signed a defensive tackle. Now, now, where did you fall in?

259
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 2: Was it David Onyamata?

260
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 3: Yeah? What'd you feel about him? Good fit? Bad fit?

261
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 3: I care less. I didn't know that much about him,

262
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 3: but I knew he'd get a good amount of money.

263
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 2: Raiders also adding more offense. They have agreed with wide

264
00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 2: receiver Jalen Naylor three year, thirty five million dollars guarantee

265
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 2: a thirty five million dollar contract that was signing Linderbaum.

266
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,120
Speaker 2: You think the Raiders are starting to get this offense

267
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 2: centered around future number one pick for Nando Mendoza.

268
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 3: A also still have eleven draft picks to use coming up,

269
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 3: all right.

270
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:09,320
Speaker 2: David Edwards former Bills guard David Edwards has signed a

271
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 2: four year, sixty one million dollar deal with the Saints

272
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 2: as well.

273
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 3: The David anya Meta deal with the Jets is a

274
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 3: one year deal worth ten and a half million dollars

275
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 3: nine point six million of it is guaranteed. Charlie Goldsmith

276
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 3: said that this was the Bell Weather that shows just

277
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 3: how big the contract is going to be for John

278
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 3: Franklin Myers. Yeah, feels like right now, as far as

279
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 3: defensive tackles are concerned, the market has dried up pretty quickly.

280
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, feels like a lot of teams are waiting on

281
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 2: that deal to come in.

282
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,560
Speaker 3: DJ Reader is still out there, Logan Hall is still

283
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:55,520
Speaker 3: out there. Kalaias Campbell is still out there. But I

284
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,240
Speaker 3: mean with Reader and Campbell, those dudes are I mean,

285
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 3: Khalaias Campbell's forty years old. DJ Reader is thirty two,

286
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 3: So I don't know that I would be too excited

287
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 3: about one of those two guys as a potential defensive tackle.

288
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 3: And then you go down to guys like Andrew Billings,

289
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 3: Roy Lopez, Javon Hargrave, like it dries up very quickly.

290
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 2: As far as I'm conning, you mentioned John Franklin Myers

291
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 2: and the interest that the Bengals have, this is not

292
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:29,520
Speaker 2: squarely the Bengals. From what I understand, there are a

293
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 2: lot of teams interested in the services of John Franklin Myers,

294
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 2: So that is a huge name to watch and presumpt

295
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 2: I would say, presumably a big domino that'll that'll fall.

296
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 2: Hopefully that domino is here to Cincinnati. We did learn

297
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,400
Speaker 2: of a different type of domino falling Austin. That is

298
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 2: the domino of Andrew Abbott will be the opening day

299
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 2: starter for the Cincinnati Reds against the Boston Red Sox.

300
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 2: This came at no surprise, right, This was kind of

301
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 2: once the Hunter Green news break and Abba was gonna

302
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 2: be the right guy for this. Do you think there

303
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 2: was any consideration for anyone else on this staff?

304
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:07,199
Speaker 3: No, I don't think so.

305
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,919
Speaker 2: Pretty pretty cut and dry, Andrew Abbit. We'll talk about

306
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 2: a little bit more about what this team did or

307
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,439
Speaker 2: didn't do over the weekend. We are seventeen days away

308
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 2: from getting to head down to smoke Justice for opening

309
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 2: Day and then walk the block in a bridge to

310
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:29,720
Speaker 2: Great American Ballpark. Seventeen days away, Austin means we're seventeen

311
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 2: Stuart Fairchild days away from opening day. Dude, stop, what

312
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 2: about seventeen Kyle Farmer days away?

313
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:44,760
Speaker 3: Now we're talking what about seventeen fantastic Shin sue Cho

Speaker 3: Bengals were in on this guy. Okay, but he's a beast.

377
00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:56,159
Speaker 5: He is.

378
00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 3: Mike Evans was six times Pro Bowl wide receiver and

379
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:04,879
Speaker 3: future Hall of Famer has signed a three year deal

380
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:08,080
Speaker 3: with the San Francisco forty nine ers. Wow, you want

381
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,000
Speaker 3: to talk about one end of the country to three

382
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 3: other years? A three year deal for Mike Evans to

384
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 3: Here we go. Cornerback that I was excited about as

385
00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:28,199
Speaker 3: a potential Bengal Bengals. Jamel Dean goes to the Pittsburgh Steelers.

386
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:31,320
Speaker 3: It's a three year, thirty six point seven to five

387
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:37,639
Speaker 3: million dollar deal for Jamel Dean to Pittsburgh. You know

388
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:41,400
Speaker 3: Ben Solac, who's a ESPN analyst. I like Ben Solac

389
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:42,160
Speaker 3: for the NFL.

390
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,200
Speaker 2: He has He's taken in all the deal so far

391
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,680
Speaker 2: today and he says that Kobe Bryant to the Bears

392
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:48,400
Speaker 2: is his favorite.

393
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,040
Speaker 3: He said it was his favorite safety in the in

394
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:57,800
Speaker 3: the free agent class. Favorite deal so far. I think

395
00:21:57,840 --> 00:21:59,399
Speaker 3: it's a great safety. I think it's a great deal. No,

396
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 3: I think it is too man. Afc Nor's been pretty

397
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:07,360
Speaker 3: active today. What's pretty crazy is the Tyler Linderbaum thing.

398
00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 3: So he goes to the Raiders. It's an eighty one

399
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:14,760
Speaker 3: million dollar deal. He like, completely reset the market by

400
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 3: like fifty percent. Yeah. The previous record for a Sinner

401
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:23,639
Speaker 3: for the average per year as a percentage of the

402
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:27,919
Speaker 3: cap at signing was seven point four percent. Lender Bobs

403
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 3: is almost nine percent. Man, I mean that is one

404
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:37,080
Speaker 3: of the biggest jumps for a particular market of all time.

405
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:41,400
Speaker 3: I was gonna say, that's impressive, so impressive to say

406
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 3: the list. The Raiders are gonna bump Jackson Powers. Johnson,

407
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 3: a guy that was a target of the Bengals in

408
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,879
Speaker 3: the draft a couple of years ago, over to guard

409
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,320
Speaker 3: and he'll be replacing Alex Kappa, who I don't know

410
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:54,200
Speaker 3: that we'll see much of Alex Kappa in the National

411
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 3: Football League anymore. Yeah, but Raiders are beginning to build.

412
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:03,439
Speaker 3: We will. We'll take a phone call or two here, Brian,

413
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 3: what's going on?

414
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:08,639
Speaker 4: Uh?

415
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:10,880
Speaker 3: Oh, Brian, I think you got a bad connection. Brian,

416
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:15,879
Speaker 3: we cannot hear you. We're sorry, dude, Brian, are you

417
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,720
Speaker 3: there hear me? Yeah? Yeah, what's up?

418
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:20,640
Speaker 4: Hey? I was calling.

419
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 6: Actually, it's funny, you guys were just talking about Tyler

420
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 6: Windham bomb Happy free agent Day.

421
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 4: I was actually as.

422
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,440
Speaker 6: A Bengals fan for the first couple You just want

423
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:33,040
Speaker 6: to see AMC North teams loose players, so it's always

424
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:36,199
Speaker 6: good to see the Ravens lose their best offensive lineman.

425
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:39,399
Speaker 6: But at the same time, at the same time, I

426
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:42,640
Speaker 6: was gonna say, Jamel Dean, I never really liked him.

427
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 6: I'm glad he's with the Steelers. Actually, I think Chase

428
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 6: and Higgins will have their way with him. And then

429
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 6: of course you know, but of course I called like

430
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:53,439
Speaker 6: a week ago when you guys were talking about the

431
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 6: Max Crosby trade for a first round or not, and

432
00:23:57,040 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 6: I was the one that was was against it just

433
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:03,120
Speaker 6: because it's the first round pick defensive line. I would

434
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 6: want a defensive tackle that can consistently penetrate in the middle,

435
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,360
Speaker 6: and it's hard to find, and you're finding that out

436
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,239
Speaker 6: right now because Franklin Myers is about as good as

437
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,360
Speaker 6: you're gonna get on the free agent market. They don't

438
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:19,679
Speaker 6: go to free agency very often. You got a draft,

439
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 6: so you either overpay for Franklin Myers or you're getting

440
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:25,840
Speaker 6: a stop gap older guy.

441
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:27,760
Speaker 4: Yep, the hope.

442
00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 6: And then, like I said, this draft is pretty much

443
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 6: a group of five or busts or trade down for

444
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:39,280
Speaker 6: a defensive tackle, which is obviously Harvell Reeves sunny styles,

445
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 6: Caleb Downs, David Bailey or Ruben Bain, or you trade

446
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:45,680
Speaker 6: down and get one of those defensive linemen like a

447
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:51,120
Speaker 6: Canadian McDonald or even a cneman the safety from Morgan.

448
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:55,560
Speaker 6: But really, those defensive tackles are hard to get, the

449
00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:59,920
Speaker 6: penetrating defensive tackles, and you're seeing that now Geno actin.

450
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:00,720
Speaker 4: It was a blessing.

451
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:05,280
Speaker 6: We learned that Region Reader was really good, but he

452
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 6: was a defensive guy, run stopping guy, which obviously the

453
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 6: Bengals couldn't rush the pass or defend the run, so

454
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,639
Speaker 6: he was definitely valued. Uh But they need to get

455
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,120
Speaker 6: a little bit of both and they need some depth,

456
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:23,399
Speaker 6: so hopefully linebackers still a need as well. Uh So,

457
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:24,800
Speaker 6: I don't know if they plan on getting that in

458
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:28,400
Speaker 6: the draft or a Devin Lloyd type. But as far

459
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,919
Speaker 6: as safety and the free agent market goes, I'm not

460
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:36,119
Speaker 6: a big fan of much out there. But again, you know,

461
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:39,359
Speaker 6: this is a pretty good safety draft, so maybe they're

462
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 6: tot their eggs in that basket.

463
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,840
Speaker 4: But I wonder what do you guys think about.

464
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:46,320
Speaker 6: You know, other teams and our division losing players like

465
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:48,600
Speaker 6: like a Linden Bomb is gonna help of course, if

466
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 6: you don't have a defensive lineman that can penetrate, it

467
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:52,160
Speaker 6: might not help angles.

468
00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:56,040
Speaker 4: But but beans, guys, YEA hopefully.

469
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:59,320
Speaker 2: Soon appreciate that. Yeah, I think you do. Count of

470
00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:02,120
Speaker 2: as a woman Baltimore. Losing Linderbaum is a big thing.

471
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:08,680
Speaker 2: I just de tackle Austin is a position I'm okay

472
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:12,240
Speaker 2: with overpaying for. Like I don't think you would. You're

473
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,119
Speaker 2: not gonna have a choice, yeah, I mean you're gonna

474
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,000
Speaker 2: have to or else you're gonna be left with nothing.

475
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,680
Speaker 2: By the way, speaking of d tackles, this was earlier today.

476
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 2: Sheldon Rankins two year, twelve million dollar guaranteed deal extension.

477
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:26,400
Speaker 3: There's really good. Last year Sheldon Ranks was awesome ever

478
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:30,159
Speaker 3: since he left Cincinnati in that weird situation that was

479
00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:32,160
Speaker 3: here one more quick call we got to people would

480
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 3: be getting mad as Sheldon Rankins like, dude, his fault.

481
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,040
Speaker 3: I know, yeah, I just like it's crazy. By the way,

482
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,439
Speaker 3: Devin Bush, that was a name that I thought the

483
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:43,359
Speaker 3: Bengals would go after going to the Chicago Bears had

484
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 3: three year, thirty million dollar deal for Devin Bush. I

485
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,560
Speaker 3: thought they would get either Bush, Gary or Kingsley. In

486
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:54,560
Speaker 3: a bar a three former Packers, three guys with history

487
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,639
Speaker 3: with Jerry Montgomery. All three go to different teams. Devin

488
00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,000
Speaker 3: Bush goes to the Bears. We got about a minute

489
00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 3: and then we got to get to a break. Mike,

490
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 3: what's up?

491
00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:06,480
Speaker 4: Okay, I'll be fast if I can't. Great move by

492
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:09,960
Speaker 4: the Raiders building that O line for mister Mendoza. Way

493
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,480
Speaker 4: to go, boys, be active, be aggressive, Bengals, get off

494
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 4: there butt. You're watching scribe by Oh, there's a lot

495
00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,359
Speaker 4: of them left out there. Well, they're going fast.

496
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:20,399
Speaker 3: I know you wish so.

497
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:22,720
Speaker 4: Too long, you're gonna be damned Well.

498
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 3: Sorry, there's a lot of left out there. And then

499
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:26,080
Speaker 3: they keep getting signed.

500
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,320
Speaker 4: That's right. Well that's what's gonna happen when you when

501
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:34,520
Speaker 4: you sit around and contemplate too damn much. Well the thing,

502
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:37,040
Speaker 4: what a brilliant move by the Rams now getting the

503
00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:38,400
Speaker 4: teammate of McAfee.

504
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:42,040
Speaker 3: Rams are in a great spot.

505
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 4: I mean they really are getting to well. I heard

506
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:48,359
Speaker 4: that they really like that wide receiver out of USC

507
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:51,679
Speaker 4: too when it comes to one of their picks in

508
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 4: the draft, and they like bang to the defensive tackle

509
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,640
Speaker 4: from Miami as far as their draft. But how about

510
00:27:56,680 --> 00:28:00,680
Speaker 4: the weekend basketball Florida never allows Kentucky to have the leading.

511
00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:03,240
Speaker 3: That whole game dominated at rough and then.

512
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:07,679
Speaker 4: Yukon loses, which makes me so happy. And uh I

513
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 4: just think TCU out tough. Do you see, Tony, They

514
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:11,160
Speaker 4: out tough them.

515
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 3: They didn't have an answer.

516
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:13,880
Speaker 2: They were they were one hundred percent the tougher team

517
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:17,040
Speaker 2: on Saturday, which is disappointing and a must win game.

518
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:18,919
Speaker 4: Yep, I know you got to go.

519
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:20,080
Speaker 3: Thank you, Thank you, Mike.

520
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,680
Speaker 2: Chad Brendle waits to join us next for quick hits.

521
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 2: That's probably what happened.

522
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:26,320
Speaker 3: Awesome.

523
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:28,919
Speaker 2: The Bengals were waiting so that Chad could get all

524
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:31,960
Speaker 2: the breaking news this afternoon. I hope so that'll happen next.

525
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:35,120
Speaker 2: ESPN fifteen thirty Cincinnati sports station Wig hits.

526
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 3: Yes it is six. Was looking for Mo. Mo said

527
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:40,880
Speaker 3: us goodbyes.

528
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 2: I saw a post where he said his goodbyes to

529
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 2: all the baseball and beers he's been able to take in.

530
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,640
Speaker 2: And what's life seemingly beautiful weather. Uh Mo will be

531
00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 2: back tomorrow, which means.

532
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 3: Chay nice A good fire pit night on fire. Yeah

533
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,400
Speaker 3: it was, it was I needed it. It was yesterday.

534
00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,560
Speaker 3: It was a nice day to sit outside. It's just

535
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:02,400
Speaker 3: we need that we need a signing to come across

536
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:06,520
Speaker 3: the board. I don't now you're in for the next

537
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 3: three hours, and maybe you'll be the one that has

538
00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,400
Speaker 3: gifted multiple signings. What do you got coming up on

539
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,400
Speaker 3: the show? Well, we're going to talk about the Bengals, Okay,

540
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:17,840
Speaker 3: We're going to talk about the fact that they continuously

541
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 3: take away one entire element of talent acquisition, and that's

542
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:27,480
Speaker 3: trading draft picks. Yes, and I don't understand that because

543
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 3: they stink at drafting. They're terrible at drafting. If you

544
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 3: can get a good player for a fourth round pick

545
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,360
Speaker 3: or a fifth round pick or a sixth round pick,

546
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:39,920
Speaker 3: go get the good player. I want to be the

547
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 3: La Rams yep. I want to trade every damn first

548
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:45,640
Speaker 3: round pick. Yes, because you're gonna get a guy that

549
00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:47,880
Speaker 3: you know is good and it's going to produce for

550
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:50,120
Speaker 3: three four years, and then when it's time for him

551
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:52,720
Speaker 3: to go, you trade another first round pick and you

552
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 3: go find his damn replacement. What about a seventh round

553
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 3: pick would you get away with yeah? Four fourth Yeah?

554
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 3: Well no, they got Jim then did t J Huschmanzada

555
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:07,560
Speaker 3: in the seventh Here's my biggest concern. I think they're

556
00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 3: gonna stink again on defense.

557
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 2: I hope, like I'll get out that at some point

558
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:14,040
Speaker 2: today the Bengals have a deal in place with John

559
00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:17,920
Speaker 2: Franklin Myers. But if they don't, my worry becomes the

560
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 2: market gets reset to John Franklin Myers, and then we're

561
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:24,360
Speaker 2: left saying, well, this isn't John Franklin Myers, but we're

562
00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:26,160
Speaker 2: gonna have to overpay a little bit because the market was.

563
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 2: We said, if you got a deal done before met

564
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 2: Franklin Myers, you could have kind of set your own market.

565
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 2: Now you're gonna be if you don't land a guy

566
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:34,320
Speaker 2: like that, you're kind of at the nature of what

567
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 2: these deals run.

568
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 3: Let me ask you a question. How many times have

569
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 3: the Bengals been serious in free agency? Serious? Let kick

570
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 3: the tires on Crosby. How many times have the Bengals

571
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:48,240
Speaker 3: been serious in free agency? Once? Probably once, maybe twice.

572
00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 3: What happened after that year that they were serious in

573
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:56,480
Speaker 3: free agency? They went to the Super Bowl. Huh huh.

574
00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 3: But this year is gonna be different. But we have

575
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 3: to keep talking. Look, we're gonna do this is because

576
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:04,840
Speaker 3: this is our job. We're gonna have to sit here

577
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 3: and talk ourselves into mid level signings for more money

578
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 3: than they probably should have got, only to buy October

579
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 3: be going? Where is this guy should have done more?

580
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:18,920
Speaker 3: Why didn't this Why isn't this guy producing like that

581
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:22,560
Speaker 3: they had? Are they not aware sure that they had

582
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,040
Speaker 3: one of the worst defenses in the history of the

583
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:31,360
Speaker 3: NFL and that they need great, great that they need

584
00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 3: serious help on that side of the ball to be

585
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:39,600
Speaker 3: a super Bowl team? Can they? Can they make a

586
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:42,960
Speaker 3: bunch of mid level additions and probably get into the

587
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:47,760
Speaker 3: playoffs with ten wins or whatever? Sure they got Joe Burrow,

588
00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:51,640
Speaker 3: of course that's possible. Why can't this be the team

589
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 3: that's striving for fourteen wins? Fifteen wins? Being aggressive with

590
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:59,440
Speaker 3: your draft picks and trading them for proven NFL talent

591
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,240
Speaker 3: aggressive at the start of free agency. We're we're we're

592
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 3: all in Tony, We're always all in Bologney. Your actions

593
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:11,720
Speaker 3: don't match your words. That was one of the craziest

594
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:16,720
Speaker 3: lies ever told always we're always going without hesitation. He

595
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 3: thought he was like, nailed it. Joe Flacco nailed it.

596
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 3: I still can't believe the confidence with which he said that.

597
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 3: In the condescending. Tony responded to Kelsey Conway with I

598
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,120
Speaker 3: could not believe. I still can't believe. You know what

599
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:35,080
Speaker 3: it was, Austin, It was the Nick Young three pointer. Yeah.

600
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:39,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, with as much as we have that not gonna

601
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:40,800
Speaker 2: sit on our hands? Can we clip that as well

602
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:43,000
Speaker 2: about being all in for tomorrow that we.

603
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:45,200
Speaker 3: Are certainly not going to sit on our hands. No,

604
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:49,040
Speaker 3: we're not. Are you gonna stick them up here? Now?

605
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:53,280
Speaker 2: While it's been quiet for the Bengals, nice day for

606
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:56,239
Speaker 2: former Bearcats in the National Football League, let's go like,

607
00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:58,440
Speaker 2: I mean, how good does the t Higgins deal look?

608
00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:02,240
Speaker 2: I mean, for you, there's one sixteenth he took it well.

609
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,320
Speaker 3: The thing with Alec is the right place, right time,

610
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,400
Speaker 3: because he was gonna be the number one guy in

611
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 3: the market. And the Colts were desperate because they would

612
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 3: have had nothing a wide receivers if they didn't have

613
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:18,120
Speaker 3: a p they were they were cooked big. I mean,

614
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,840
Speaker 3: you cannot find a better a better family than Alec

615
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:24,640
Speaker 3: Pierce and and I love Kobe as well. And then

616
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 3: and you know the Predator, the Predators coming next. That's

617
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:31,160
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna lie, Tony. I've been doing that. I'm

618
00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 3: December will be my twentieth year on the UC beat.

619
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:40,239
Speaker 3: I've never actually been mentally intimidated by a player like

620
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:42,200
Speaker 3: I was Brian Cook when he first shut up and

621
00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:45,000
Speaker 3: had the dreadlocks and looked like the predator and like

622
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:49,280
Speaker 3: Laft Stair. Yeah, go get him, go get him.

623
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, John Franklin Myers, Brian Cook by six o'clock and

624
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:55,280
Speaker 2: we're in a good place.

625
00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:57,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, then we're happy. Then we're happy. And you're mad

626
00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 3: because I got to talk about it. You didn't exactly.

627
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:02,560
Speaker 3: That's why you're mad. That's why you're really mad right now?

628
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,160
Speaker 3: I am. I am. I only get a couple opportunities

629
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:08,040
Speaker 3: this week because of Kentucky basketball. Boy, I bet most

630
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:10,799
Speaker 3: thrilled about that. I know. I know Mo's walking back

631
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:14,160
Speaker 3: to that. Most been the beneficiary of a few of them.

632
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:18,320
Speaker 2: Yes, we do get U see basketball unfortunately tomorrow.

633
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 3: Boy. You talk about the epitome of Cincinnati sports fandom, YEP,

634
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:25,879
Speaker 3: I know it. Going into the game. I did too.

635
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:30,000
Speaker 3: I didn't team turnovers as soon as West Virginia one

636
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:34,160
Speaker 3: on Friday night, Yep. Like the outcome, everything was gonna

637
00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:38,839
Speaker 3: break exactly Cincinnati's way Saturday. Every bubble team we needed

638
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 3: to Tolinnati was going to fail to take if they

639
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:44,920
Speaker 3: would be in. Yes, Like, I'm convinced the way Saturday went,

640
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:47,960
Speaker 3: if they beat TCU at t TCU got a quad

641
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:50,520
Speaker 3: one win, Cincinnati would be minimum.

642
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:52,879
Speaker 2: They would have had to beat Colorado or Oklahoma State

643
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:55,600
Speaker 2: in the first round, and then whatever happened against Kansas

644
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:56,719
Speaker 2: would have been icing on the cake.

645
00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:58,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm with you now.

646
00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 2: I think it would take in Kansas City this week

647
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:03,080
Speaker 2: to be considered to get back in Tony.

648
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:06,719
Speaker 3: There's a better chance you start for the Bengals this year.

649
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:11,400
Speaker 3: Then Cincinnati beats Arizona in Kansas City.

650
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,200
Speaker 2: But we got a lot of hope. We're living off

651
00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:16,040
Speaker 2: opium right now. What else you got coming up today?

652
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:17,839
Speaker 2: I mean those that's really.

653
00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,279
Speaker 3: The phone line. I have Rocca Miller who works in

654

655
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:27,640

656
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:30,200
Speaker 3: us to see if there is a path for the

657
00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:34,560
Speaker 3: Bearcats back into this tournament. Right, we'll talk Miami with him.

658

661
00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:53,200
Speaker 3: of mood the skinny the skinny uh expresses in on

662
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:55,440
Speaker 3: h on a day where good players are good chemistry

663
00:35:56,239 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 3: neither no neither awesome have chemistry with no players.

664
00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:03,160
Speaker 2: Were wrong on our prediction early on about how many

665
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 2: would be signed by this show between you and signed

666
00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:09,799
Speaker 2: one today, between least three and six o'clock, how many

667
00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:10,920
Speaker 2: new Bengals are announced.

668
00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:13,799
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say one still, okay. I always thought they

669
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:17,879
Speaker 3: would sign two today. I'm gonna say one. I'm gonna

670
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:20,880
Speaker 3: knock that down. Still a lot of good players left

671
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:24,000
Speaker 3: there are. How much are you willing to bet on

672
00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:29,440
Speaker 3: point five and take the over on that this is

673
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:32,279
Speaker 3: the Bengals, So I'm not willing to bet a lot? Right?

674
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:37,399
Speaker 3: You said too. The Devin Busch's Kappa and the Ted

675
00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:39,880
Speaker 3: Carriss are like the only time they've been super active.

676
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:44,360
Speaker 3: Day one Devin Bush signed, where with the Bears, Bears

677
00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:46,319
Speaker 3: and Jets have been very active over all. I was

678
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:48,719
Speaker 3: wrong about Devin Bush playing for the Packers. He didn't.

679
00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:51,320
Speaker 3: I was thinking of kay Walker. Bush played for the Steelers,

680
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:53,279
Speaker 3: and I got the yellow Pants confused. The Bears and

681
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:57,600
Speaker 3: the Jets two teams. That's defense needed a lot significant upgrades,

682
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:00,839
Speaker 3: and they're active and just need someone that can force

683
00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:04,200
Speaker 3: a turn on. I think those two are our great

684
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:07,000
Speaker 3: case studies of kind of what we expected the Bengals

685
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,680
Speaker 3: to do, either today or by the time this whole

686
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:11,480
Speaker 3: thing is wrapped up, by the time the draft is

687
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:15,480
Speaker 3: to add players at those positions. Not all of them

688
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:17,400
Speaker 3: are the top flight free agents, and say what you

689
00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 3: want of them are just veterans that can impact you.

690
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:22,399
Speaker 2: Say what you want. They missed the playoffs last year.

691
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:25,319
Speaker 2: The Kansas City Chiefs have been uber aggressive today as well.

692
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:27,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, they paid a lot of money, paid a lot

693
00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:30,920
Speaker 3: of money, but but they want to win. Yeah, but

694
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:34,000
Speaker 3: you guess what, Austin, it's not your money. Although I know,

695
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:37,120
Speaker 3: I'm just I'm just saying, like they they've obviously moved

696
00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:38,480
Speaker 3: a ton of money around and they can do it

697
00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:41,040
Speaker 3: again next year with They'll just keep doing it for

698
00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:42,480
Speaker 3: the running backs. You just don't I feel like I

699
00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:45,520
Speaker 3: don't see that much Austin Blackburn. Brown's always worried about

700
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:55,320
Speaker 3: the family's money. Abb unbelievable. We're done. Chad Brendle is next.

701
00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:56,319
