I know. 24 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 5: When I was an assistant coach at Ohio State, we 25 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:31,200 Speaker 5: tried to recruit me I wasn't the assistant doing it. 26 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 4: We tried to recruit herschel Walker. 27 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 5: Earl Bruce was the head coach at that time, and 28 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:42,320 Speaker 5: I remember him coming back and saying herschel Walker, what 29 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 5: a great player. He said, But I went to the 30 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 5: school and I went to his home and he said, coach, 31 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 5: why don't you ride with me? And he said, I 32 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 5: got in his transam and he was driving about ninety 33 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 5: miles an hour. You know, it was a heck of 34 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 5: an experience. He said, we're not going. 35 00:01:59,120 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 4: To get him. 36 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 3: And University of Georgia I was there for that freshman year. 37 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 3: I covered him for Vince Dooley, well, not the for 38 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 3: covered Vince Dooley for the Atlanta Journal Constitution. Great guy 39 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 3: to deal with, by the way, Dooley I had it. 40 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 3: You think I always have bad relationships with coaches. I 41 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 3: had a wonderful working relationship with the late great Vince 42 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 3: Dooley at Georgia. And then again, they were undefeated that season, 43 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 3: so that might have had something to do with it. 44 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 5: Well, being that he's late and he's great, I can't 45 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 5: verify if. 46 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 4: That's true or not. 47 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 5: So you can say everything that. 48 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,359 Speaker 2: You oh man, I figured you'd say that. 49 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 3: I bring Herschel's name up because I'm wondering if now 50 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 3: that you have so much free time on your hand 51 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 3: or hands, I should say, whether you're in Fargo, whatever 52 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 3: you might be, would you ever consider taking a US 53 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 3: ambassadorship overseas?

He joined the team last week, 95 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,279 Speaker 3: basically last week before the season began. But he doesn't 96 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 3: think he's played so well that it's slammed dunk, it's 97 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:14,480 Speaker 3: Carson Wentz. 98 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:15,159 Speaker 2: The rest of the season. 99 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 3: So what did you have kind of a coaching philosophy 100 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 3: on how you make these These are tough decisions to make, 101 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 3: man there, and sometimes you know, they're crucial decisions.

Those 179 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 5: wide receivers at a high State they should be playing 180 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 5: in the NFL. 181 00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 4: They were already. 182 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 5: And you know, I'm not saying that that the Gopher 183 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 5: offensive line didn't do a good job of protecting him, 184 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 5: but there's no running attack. And when you become one dimensional, 185 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 5: which they are right now, and I think not just 186 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 5: that week, but week in and week out the Gophers are, 187 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 5: they're really struggling to run the ball. And if you 188 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 5: play a defense like a High State in your one 189 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 5: dimensional man. 190 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:31,959 Speaker 4: You have got problems. 191 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 5: Okay, I think the offensive line for The Gophers did 192 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 5: a pretty good job pass protecting for him, but man 193 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,439 Speaker 5: in their run game, they got manhandled. 194 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 4: You go back and. 195 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 5: Watch that film if you watch it closely, their number 196 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 5: of times that defensive line for a high State playing 197 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 5: on the Gophers side of the line of scrimmage. 198 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 4: Really they got man hill in the running game. 199 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 5: Now, defensively, and you know, at that's a handful trying 200 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 5: to defend that offense. But how you think you could 201 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 5: play man coverage against those wide receivers. That' pobre one 202 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 5: quarterback number fourteen, I think that's his number. 203 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 4: Come on now, I. 204 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 5: Mean that guy's gonna not only gonna be in the NFL, 205 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 5: he's going to be a star in the NFL. I 206 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 5: couldn't believe how big that wide receiver he's He's two 207 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 5: hundred and thirty pounds. 208 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 4: Do you believe that way he runs? But you're you're. 209 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 5: Looking at a team, let's say a good High State 210 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:38,960 Speaker 5: team playing again, I mean a good Minnesota team playing 211 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 5: against a highest seed team that might just be a 212 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 5: great Ohio State team. They have talent every which way. 213 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 5: And you know you're talking about the number of players 214 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 5: that Ohio State lost off of last year's defense with 215 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 5: all four guys off the defensive line. Now in the NFL, 216 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 5: if that's true, how many teams can do that? I 217 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 5: mean it's you're comparing apples and oranges. 218 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:04,079 Speaker 3: Well, it sounds like you're not willing to give the 219 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 3: buck Geys much credit. I mean, you're making it sound 220 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 3: like what else can they be? 221 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:09,920 Speaker 2: But great? With all the talent they have. 222 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 5: Number one in the country. Well, you know, you know, 223 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 5: I mean when you look at it, I don't know. 224 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 5: And again, the quarterback for High State played pretty darn good. 225 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:22,960 Speaker 5: Ye I think he was twenty four of twenty eight 226 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 5: three hundred and forty one yards. I mean, that's that's, 227 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 5: you know, pretty darn impressive. But I'm saying that Drake lindsay, 228 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:31,680 Speaker 5: I'd like this scene him. 229 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I like him now he would have There's 230 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 2: no doubt. 231 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 3: I mean, I would say in fairnet, the High of 232 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:38,959 Speaker 3: State offense has been all over the map this year 233 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 3: that they haven't been dominant every They scored fourteen seventy 234 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 3: against Grambling, Okay, thirty seven against Ohio, twenty four against 235 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,319 Speaker 3: Washington there and forty two against the Gophers. 236 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 2: To me, the defense is the story. 237 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,440 Speaker 3: I mean they've they've they haven't even given up double 238 00:11:54,440 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 3: digits yet, man seven zero nine six, and that that 239 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 3: opening field goal drive against Minnesota. That's it for the 240 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 3: entire season. That is all they've given up defensively. 241 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,200 Speaker 4: You know, they haven't given up a touchdown in the 242 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 4: red zone. You know, you know Dargut now. 243 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 5: In saying that, do you think that Jim Knowles, the 244 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 5: defensive coordinator of Penn State, scratching his head, saying maybe 245 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 5: I shouldn't have left the buck eyes or even because 246 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 5: he didn't get fired. I mean, he got out of 247 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:29,840 Speaker 5: good graces after it was looked like he was talking 248 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 5: to Penn State, and Ryan Day said, yeah, you're talking 249 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 5: to them, then you're out of here. 250 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 4: But defense is the story right now. Then that and the. 251 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 5: Wide receivers they're running attack at the High State's not 252 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 5: very impressive, but those wide receivers are impressive. 253 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 3: Let me ask you a philosophica, another philosophical coaches question. Okay, 254 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 3: the Gophers face. Let me see, if I go, they 255 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 3: face a looks. 256 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 2: Like fourth. 257 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 3: And ten, Yeah, fourth and ten from the Ohio State. 258 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 3: Is it twenty three yard line at which point down 259 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 3: thirty five to three in the fourth quarter they try 260 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,720 Speaker 3: a field goal from fourth and ten at the Ohio 261 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 3: State twenty three Madness or sensible?

Now I'm not biggrudging when I 341 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 4: got paid. 342 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, it was insanity that they they signed me to 343 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 5: a contract and I didn't do anything wrong. 344 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 4: We went to a. 345 00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 5: Bowl game, lost it over time and they fired me. 346 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 5: So but you know, like I said, they you know 347 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:05,639 Speaker 5: they had a tight end coach available at the Broncos, 348 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 5: So go get them. 349 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:12,200 Speaker 4: You know, right now, do you ever do you ever 350 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 4: you start? 351 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 3: Do you ever say to yourself, Man, I was born 352 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:19,159 Speaker 3: too soon, you know, like if you'd been born like 353 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 3: twenty five years later, think of the money you'd have. 354 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 4: Yeah. 355 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,879 Speaker 5: Well, and if I had ever been born earlier, I 356 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 5: wouldn't have got what I got. 357 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:29,520 Speaker 4: You know that's true. 358 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 5: You know the thing about now guys that are in 359 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 5: coaching college coaching, assistant coaches. I mean, I you know, 360 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 5: I didn't make any money as an assistant coach. I 361 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 5: really didn't. I mean, you were poor. And then when 362 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 5: I first got in to be a head coach. I 363 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 5: mean I took a pay cut to leave Ohio State 364 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,639 Speaker 5: to go to Kent State. Uh, and I really didn't 365 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:53,119 Speaker 5: make any you know, a big money. I mean I 366 00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:55,600 Speaker 5: made good money when I first came to Minnesota. Then 367 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 5: it really became good. But a couple of years after that, man, 368 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 5: it went through the roof. 369 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,440 Speaker 3: By the way guards the or Mace. Do we know 370 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:09,200 Speaker 3: what the Bill Belichick buyout is? I mean, it's it's. 371 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:12,400 Speaker 2: Bad, Mace. It's really bad right now? Is it? 372 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:12,679 Speaker 3: Is it? 373 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:14,240 Speaker 2: You know, salvageable? 374 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 3: Because I've heard some people say, look, he inherited a 375 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 3: mess He's got one hundred new players and whatever's going 376 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 3: to happen, It wasn't realistically going to happen. 377 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 2: In a year. 378 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 3: Hell, you came here and inherited a huge disaster. I 379 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 3: mean you were literally starting over. 380 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 2: So I don't know. I mean, what do we make 381 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 2: of what's going on with Belichick? 382 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:37,639 Speaker 5: It ain't good, I can tell you that. And you 383 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,159 Speaker 5: know the thing about it is, it's messy. You know, 384 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 5: there's a reason why they fired Mac Brown. Okay, they 385 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,120 Speaker 5: weren't getting what they wanted to buy a new hope, 386 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 5: and they bought a lot of hope. And Bill Belichick. 387 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:54,360 Speaker 5: But hiring Bill Belichick, you would have thought they would 388 00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 5: at least been the same. 389 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:56,680 Speaker 4: Or maybe a little bit better. 390 00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,239 Speaker 5: No one expected them to win the conference and get 391 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:01,680 Speaker 5: to the College Football Play Play up the first year. 392 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 5: But it looks like a disaster. And what they ought 393 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,479 Speaker 5: to say is who made this decision? Who came up 394 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 5: with this idea? Was it the ad? Was it the president? 395 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 5: Was it some alump? I mean I always think that 396 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 5: you got to go to that is who's making those decisions? 397 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,720 Speaker 5: You know, you know, no one hires himself. No one 398 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 5: fires himself. So someone's got to make in those decisions, 399 00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 5: and their feet should be held to the fire. 400 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 3: I got let's take a bottom of the hour pause. 401 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 3: I got some good Belichick dirt too, not dirt so 402 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 3: much as intel, a little more detail on what's going 403 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 3: on there. Right now, we'll get to we got a preview, 404 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,439 Speaker 3: well we'll give a moment or two to Gophers Purdue, 405 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,880 Speaker 3: but we have to preview the Hoosiers. This is kind 406 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 3: of their tail game right in Oregon against the Ducks. 407 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 3: So we'll get to that and whatever else is stuck 408 00:19:55,359 --> 00:20:28,679 Speaker 3: in Mace's kraw when we contend Mace in your face 409 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 3: back with us dateline far ago. I'm looking mace at 410 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 3: a New York Post piece under the head excuse me, 411 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:40,119 Speaker 3: headline UNC exploring potential Bill Belichick exit strategy as weird 412 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:46,879 Speaker 3: rumors surface. The school has reportedly had preliminary conversations about 413 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 3: firing the legendary football coaches five games into the new era. 414 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:55,919 Speaker 3: His buyout is twenty million dollars for the record. The 415 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 3: story goes on to say that Belichick himself may be 416 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,359 Speaker 3: looking for and out. College football journalist Ali Conley reported 417 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 3: that Belichick has discussed buyout options with North Caro North 418 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 3: Carolina's hierarchy, and he has signaled a willingness to trigger 419 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 3: his own one million dollar buyout if he can find 420 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:17,119 Speaker 3: a soft landing with another team or in media. The 421 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 3: reporter adds that Belichick has reportedly been quote weird and 422 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,359 Speaker 3: distant with his staff, and some coaches were unable to 423 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 3: get a hold of him during the teams by week. 424 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 3: I don't know what it's just. It obviously has just 425 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 3: not gone anywhere near as well as anybody could have hoped. 426 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 3: They were beaten by Clemson thirty eight to ten on Saturday. 427 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:43,679 Speaker 3: That was at Chapel Hill, and you know, Guardian our 428 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 3: time about this. I think yesterday that or somebody brought 429 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 3: it up that you know, Drake May went to the UNC. 430 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 3: He has a really nice signature game. They knock off Buffalo, 431 00:21:56,280 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 3: the Buffalo Bills on National TV. And apparently several folks 432 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 3: have you know, pretty much confirmed that. 433 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:04,919 Speaker 4: You know. 434 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 2: The Belichick warning was, we're not we we do. 435 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:13,199 Speaker 3: Not We're not going to send out anything about what 436 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,440 Speaker 3: Drake May did, even though he went to school here 437 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 3: because he plays for New England. And Belichick has said 438 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 3: before how he feels about acknowledging that organization at all. 439 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,640 Speaker 3: I you know, it was with Louie we were talking 440 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 3: about with Louis LOUI was in studio yesterday and Louis said, 441 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:29,400 Speaker 3: you know, you'd like to think as you get older, 442 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 3: you you become a little less bitter, or you become 443 00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 3: a little bit more philosophical and you let, you know, 444 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 3: you let go of some things. But it feels like 445 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 3: Belichick in some ways is kind of his own worst 446 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:41,719 Speaker 3: enemy here. 447 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 4: What do you think, Well, I don't know if that's 448 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:46,199 Speaker 4: you know, true or not. 449 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:50,679 Speaker 5: I know that he didn't let the New England Patriots 450 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 5: on their campus yes because he said he wasn't felt 451 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:57,680 Speaker 5: welcome on their campus, and then Vrabel came out they 452 00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 5: coach Patriot. That's not true. He's welcome here any time. 453 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 5: I would have to think that. I have a hard 454 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 5: time believing that. I think that Bill Belichick has more 455 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,880 Speaker 5: bigger fish to fry than worry about what Drake May 456 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:11,400 Speaker 5: has done. 457 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:14,399 Speaker 4: I mean, he's getting his head handed to him right now. 458 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 5: As far as those other rumors, you know, it's hard 459 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 5: for I think a lot of people that think, well, 460 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,960 Speaker 5: would Belichick want to bow out after one season or 461 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 5: even right now? And you think no, But you know, 462 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 5: let's not forget when Lou Hols left n C State 463 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:33,399 Speaker 5: and went to the Jets, and all of a sudden 464 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 5: he realized this is not what I thought it was 465 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 5: going to be. Maybe I've been off more than can chew. 466 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:41,359 Speaker 5: And he left, you know, and he went to Arkansas. 467 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 5: So I think everybody was surprised when he did that, 468 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,159 Speaker 5: to walk away from the New York Jets job in 469 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:50,680 Speaker 5: the NFL after I'm not even sure it was one year. 470 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 5: I know it was not more than one year, So 471 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:56,679 Speaker 5: who knows what's going on. I mean, he's just like 472 00:23:56,760 --> 00:24:00,440 Speaker 5: Lou Hols didn't have a background in pro football. Bill 473 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:04,360 Speaker 5: Jack has a big background in football, but not college football, No, 474 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:08,119 Speaker 5: not at all, and he might think, oh, this is 475 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 5: a lot different than I thought it would be. 476 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 3: All right, Indiana off to a terrific start again this year, 477 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 3: very soft non conference schedule, but they in the Big 478 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 3: Ten have been good to very good. They destroyed Illinois, 479 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 3: they found the proverbial way to win on the road 480 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,040 Speaker 3: against Iowa on an afternoon where they didn't play great, 481 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:30,679 Speaker 3: but they did, you know, indeed get the victory. They 482 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 3: get the week off, and now they prepare for what's 483 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 3: Oregon ranked? Is it six, five or six? I can't remember. 484 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 3: They're ranked pretty high and they're good and it's there. 485 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 3: So I mean, if you were let me put it 486 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:47,439 Speaker 3: this way, if you were in Signetti's shoes, do you 487 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:49,680 Speaker 3: do you have if you're being fair, do you have to. 488 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 2: Look at this? 489 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:53,239 Speaker 3: Is this as well as games man? If whether it's 490 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:56,119 Speaker 3: fair to us or not, we're still not totally taken 491 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,680 Speaker 3: seriously at the top level because when we played really 492 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,719 Speaker 3: good t games last year, what Ohio State regular season, 493 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 3: Notre Dame in the postseason, we didn't fare very well. 494 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 3: We were not particularly competitive, and sooner or later, that's 495 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 3: what we got to do. We got to go to 496 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 3: a place like Oregon and we have to win the 497 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 3: damn game. Is that fair for for Do you think 498 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 3: that's what even Signetti has to think right now? If 499 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 3: he's if he if he wants to really be genuine. 500 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 5: Oh, I think so, you know, I I think that 501 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 5: Signetti Coachingnetti's done a good job of putting a chip 502 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 5: on the shoulders of I think he had a chip 503 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:35,000 Speaker 5: on his shoulders anyway for him, yes, but for his 504 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 5: players and his program to say, no one really respects 505 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:40,879 Speaker 5: in the end. We've even talked about that. You know, 506 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 5: was last year as great as it was for them? 507 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:46,199 Speaker 5: Was it a one off? H And he's kind of 508 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,120 Speaker 5: backed it up so far. You know this year, he's 509 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 5: he's done a good job, and a lot of people, 510 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 5: maybe me included, we're waiting for that other shoe to 511 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 5: fall and say, you know what, he's made him good. 512 00:25:57,600 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 4: But they're not that good. 513 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 5: You know, they're they shouldn't be in the conversation of 514 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 5: being the college football playoff two years in a row. 515 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:10,360 Speaker 5: If he goes out there and plays and beats him, 516 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 5: then we're all saying, hey, you know what, they're really legit, 517 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,399 Speaker 5: let's get off, let's get on the back. If he 518 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,880 Speaker 5: goes out there, it makes the game close and still 519 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 5: Lou yes, they're a lot better. But if he goes 520 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 5: out there and tammis, yeah, he gets beat by twenty 521 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 5: five or thirty points, then we say, well, yeah, they're 522 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:32,159 Speaker 5: not the old Indiana, but they're sure not the new Indiana. 523 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:32,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's fair. 524 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 3: I think the latest ratings, I see Oregans three and 525 00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:38,879 Speaker 3: the Indiana's seven. I don't remember the last time. I 526 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 3: don't even know if Indiana has ever been ranked as 527 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,920 Speaker 3: high as number seven in the country. So and that's 528 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,160 Speaker 3: a two thirty. I think that's a two thirty game. 529 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:48,919 Speaker 3: And that I think he said. I think he nailed it. 530 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,800 Speaker 3: I think that's fair. I mean, you don't believe in 531 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:54,640 Speaker 3: moral victories, but there's a difference between, as you say, 532 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 3: losing by twenty seven really never being in the game, 533 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:01,119 Speaker 3: and let's say losing by three or even six for 534 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:03,200 Speaker 3: a game that goes down to the wire, that gets 535 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 3: into the U in the fourth quarter. And believe me, 536 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,960 Speaker 3: I think look for a lot of schools, I think 537 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 3: they should root for what Indiana represents right, because it's 538 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:14,359 Speaker 3: a place that's been awful in football, as you know, 539 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:18,919 Speaker 3: with rare exception, and I think programs like that are 540 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,119 Speaker 3: all looking for hope, right, the idea that it's not 541 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 3: always the blue bloods that that you know, that are 542 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,679 Speaker 3: ranked that high or ranked in the top ten with 543 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 3: a chance to be something, you know, to have a 544 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 3: significant season. 545 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think you're right on one count. And one 546 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:37,800 Speaker 5: thing you're not looking at is there's a lot of 547 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,879 Speaker 5: programs out there. Let's say, if Indiana gets the college 548 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,639 Speaker 5: football playoff again, there's a lot of programs that are 549 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 5: going to tell their coach, Hey, if Indiana can do it, 550 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 5: I can't wait exactly. Yeah, why aren't you there? You 551 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 5: know they're you know, we used to be ahead of Indiana. 552 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:54,639 Speaker 5: You know what's going on to me in this game? 553 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:58,879 Speaker 5: I really think the challenge is for Indiana's defense against 554 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 5: Oregons off what I've seen against Indiana's offense. That quarterback 555 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 5: what's his name, Mendoza? Correct, he's good, now, I mean 556 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:09,680 Speaker 5: he's really good. It looks like they can as long 557 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 5: as they can protect and they can move the ball 558 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:15,920 Speaker 5: on just about anybody. Now, can their defense hold up 559 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:20,479 Speaker 5: against our offense, and they're playing in a really, really 560 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 5: tough place at awesome Stadium is as loud as it 561 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:25,160 Speaker 5: gets their wild out there. 562 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:29,200 Speaker 4: They love their ducks. It'll be a big challenge for Indiana. 563 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 3: I'm looking at I let me call it up here 564 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:34,679 Speaker 3: real quick. The you know, we've spent a lot of 565 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,439 Speaker 3: time in this show talking about the Viking schedule. The 566 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 3: feeling was the first five games was relatively favorable and 567 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 3: that you almost need to like go four and one 568 00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 3: or five and zero to sort of give yourself a 569 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 3: little breathing room. Now that you get after the bye, 570 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 3: this middle section, that's a lot of really good teams. 571 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:56,719 Speaker 3: Now again the Ravens have struggled, although right now they 572 00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 3: don't have their quarterback. Presumably by then they would have 573 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 3: their quarterback. And you know, contrary to that, for the Gophers, 574 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:09,480 Speaker 3: it's like, well, this is now that you're past Ohio State, 575 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 3: this is the stretch where you kind of got to 576 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 3: get fat, you know, and it starts with hosting Purdue 577 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 3: for homecoming on Saturday. Then you've got Nebraska here, you're 578 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 3: at Iowa, and you've got Michigan State here before you 579 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 3: have to go to Salem. Guards he has to go 580 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 3: to Salem on the fourteenth of November to face Oregon. 581 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 3: So to me, that's the challenge here, right, is these 582 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 3: are all games. 583 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 4: What are you talking about? Salem? 584 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 3: You mean, Eugene, Eugene. I don't why I keep saying Salem, Yeah, Eugene, Oregon. 585 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 5: Yeah. 586 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 2: For some reason, I got Salem on the brain. I 587 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 2: don't know why to get too. 588 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:48,720 Speaker 5: I thought maybe that's what the salad bar was for guards. 589 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 5: I wasn't really sure. 590 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 2: Well, maybe it is. It's possible. Salad bar. Yeah, salad bar. 591 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 2: Are you sure you mean the salad. 592 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 4: Bar, the Salem salad bar. You never heard of it? 593 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 4: Oh no, it's big time time. 594 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 2: Okay, fair enough. 595 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:05,800 Speaker 3: But to my point this is there's an opportunity here, 596 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 3: right if you play to the level that you think 597 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:11,640 Speaker 3: you are, you got a chance to fatten up the 598 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 3: record a little bit. 599 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 5: Well, I think it goes back to the big picture 600 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 5: that when you're a place like a so maybe any program, uh, 601 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 5: make sure you win the games that you're capable of winning, 602 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 5: especially playing at home. Yes, and then finger keep your 603 00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 5: fingers crossed that you'll beat somebody that you really shouldn't 604 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:36,400 Speaker 5: be able to beat. 605 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 4: It's an upset for whatever reason. 606 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,320 Speaker 5: You know, you play really well, they play average, or 607 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 5: they have turnovers or wherever. And if you beat the 608 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 5: teams that you're supposed to beat and then beat one 609 00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 5: team that you're not supposed to beat, man you have 610 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 5: a great year. 611 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's all true. Let's get one more. 612 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 5: And you're talking about the Gophers should be Purdue, right, Yes, 613 00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 5: they are a big If they play well, don't turn 614 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 5: the ball all over, they'll win win that game. 615 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:03,560 Speaker 4: Nebraska. 616 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 5: Everybody keeps holding their bread for Nebraska to beat Nebraska. 617 00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 5: I don't think it's this year again, I can tell 618 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 5: you that. Uh. And then you know, it seems like 619 00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 5: Iowa is you know, they're even down there at Kinnick Stadium. 620 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 4: They're very vulnerable. 621 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:23,120 Speaker 5: And then Michigan State, I see where there's rumors some 622 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 5: of their fans want coach Smith already bought out of 623 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 5: his contract. 624 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 4: It's infanity. 625 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, it probably is. By the way, was there bad 626 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 3: blood between you and Joe Tiller back in the day. 627 00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:34,360 Speaker 3: Was Joe Tiller the guy you coached? 628 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 4: Not at all? You got a lie. I really liked 629 00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 4: Joe Tiller. Joe Tiller was a great football coach. 630 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:45,960 Speaker 5: He was and he went in there and uh, you 631 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 5: know to think that you know, he kind of I'm 632 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 5: not saying they fired him, but he kind of bowed out. 633 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 4: Uh. 634 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:54,280 Speaker 5: They forgot how good they had with Joe Tiller. I 635 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:57,960 Speaker 5: know that, Uh, conversations I had with him. He was 636 00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 5: not really fond of Morgan Burke, his athletic talker. 637 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 2: Interesting. 638 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:05,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, he used to tell me all the time, you know. 639 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 5: You know Morgan Burke was a produe graduate. He was 640 00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:12,280 Speaker 5: a letter winner, not in football. He was a swimmer, 641 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 5: I think, and some of the some of the things 642 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,360 Speaker 5: that you know Joe thought that they should be able 643 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:23,480 Speaker 5: to do. They butted heads on based on my conversations 644 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 5: with them. But no, I had great respect, you know 645 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:28,120 Speaker 5: for Joe Tiller. 646 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:29,040 Speaker 4: Great coach did. 647 00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 3: And wasn't he the head coach who presided over the 648 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 3: greatest swindle of your entire coaching career the game at 649 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 3: the at the Metrodome where they moved the ball like 650 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 3: ninety yards in six seconds for the field goal. 651 00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:45,160 Speaker 5: He had nothing to do with it, but yeah, it's 652 00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:48,200 Speaker 5: a you know, we took over and they I forget 653 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:50,040 Speaker 5: how many seconds they have, but the first down they 654 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 5: had the legal procedure and they got penalized, and it 655 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 5: was like, I don't know, seven seconds on the clock 656 00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 5: and this would be the last play of the game. 657 00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:00,200 Speaker 5: And I dropped back and they threw the ball to 658 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 5: midfield and they caught it, but the game should have 659 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:05,600 Speaker 5: been over. We tackled them. Uh and uh, you know, 660 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 5: you check it out. The officials except for the referee, 661 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:12,200 Speaker 5: they all turned around for the locker room. There was 662 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 5: one second left on the clock.

And you know the thing about 759 00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:11,680 Speaker 3: it was. 760 00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:16,640 Speaker 5: He wasn't known as a recruiter, you know, really he 761 00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:19,600 Speaker 5: used to talk about how much he hated recruiting and 762 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:22,800 Speaker 5: he you know, he didn't beat a lot of people 763 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 5: on named players, but the guys that he got were 764 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:27,799 Speaker 5: awful good. You know, you look at Drew Brees, I 765 00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:30,719 Speaker 5: think from Austin, Texas. They didn't recruit him down there, 766 00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,160 Speaker 5: and he got him there and he was as good 767 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:35,600 Speaker 5: as they could be. And he was the guy that 768 00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 5: really I'm talking about Joe Tiller. He changed the Big 769 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:44,440 Speaker 5: ten true. You know, he had a pass offense second 770 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:46,600 Speaker 5: to none out at Wyoming. And I remember at his 771 00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:49,840 Speaker 5: press conference someone asked him, they said, do you really 772 00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 5: think your pass offense can survive in the Big Ten. 773 00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:54,839 Speaker 5: And he said, what do you mean?

You know? 777 00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:04,640 Speaker 4: And and that was the case. 778 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 5: I mean, if you could perform in those conditions out there, 779 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:11,279 Speaker 5: it didn't matter what the conditions were. You know, he 780 00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:13,200 Speaker 5: really had He knew what he was doing.

A dispute between 864 00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:08,160 Speaker 3: the coaches concerning Mason's decision not to exchange game films 865 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:12,400 Speaker 3: attracted more media attention to the game than ever before Boom, 866 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:14,879 Speaker 3: Regardless of what went on this week.

Well, but here's the question. The story 886 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:11,880 Speaker 3: seems to indicate you didn't give any film. Your version 887 00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:14,919 Speaker 3: of the story was you wouldn't give the extra game. 888 00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:18,640 Speaker 4: I don't remember the exact We're. 889 00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:19,920 Speaker 3: Gonna get to the bottom of that next week.

Oh this is good, this will save this 892 00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:28,040 Speaker 3: for sure. Anything else we're late, anything else that we 893 00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:30,319 Speaker 3: got to get to before we wrap up here or already. 894 00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:32,399 Speaker 4: I got to just say this one. 895 00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:34,440 Speaker 5: And I've talked about it before, but you know, I 896 00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:35,760 Speaker 5: used to coach at Kent State. 897 00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:37,839 Speaker 4: Yes, and it's a. 898 00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:40,439 Speaker 5: Great play, but you know, a year in and year out, 899 00:44:40,520 --> 00:44:43,040 Speaker 5: it seems like they're one of the worst programs in 900 00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:47,120 Speaker 5: the country. I mean, they just can't get turned around. 901 00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:50,640 Speaker 5: And I've talked about, well this year.

They also had to play 906 00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:06,920 Speaker 5: Texas Tech in Florida State. And what I'm saying is, 907 00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:10,799 Speaker 5: whoever that a d you know, why would he think 908 00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:13,000 Speaker 5: the program is going to get turned around? You know 909 00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:16,439 Speaker 5: for Kent State. And they even have the same number 910 00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:19,960 Speaker 5: of scholarships as those other schools. But you know what 911 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,400 Speaker 5: they should make that ad put a helmet on and 912 00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:25,000 Speaker 5: go out there and play.

I mean, that's impressive 919 00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:39,000 Speaker 3: right there. 920 00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:40,400 Speaker 4: It's crazy. 921 00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:41,400 Speaker 2: Last item. 922 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:43,399 Speaker 3: Will you allow me as we wrap up to pay 923 00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:44,160 Speaker 3: you a compliment? 924 00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:46,120 Speaker 4: Please?
