We 25 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 2: were asked yesterday Austin about the three three five defense 26 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 2: that Tyson Vite deploys. 27 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 3: And my understanding is that you went home and you 28 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 3: really all you really did was was break down to 29 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 3: three three five, got in the tape, and so that's 30 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 3: what you're going to talk about in segment two for football. 31 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 3: Three three five defense makes a lot of sense. We'll 32 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 3: talk about the. 33 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 2: Pros, we'll talk about the cons and maybe why the 34 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 2: Bearcats use that defense. 35 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 3: Tyson Invite is listening, He's welcome to call in a coach. 36 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 3: Would love to have your thoughts on the three three 37 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 3: five as well. I think it's worth note we should 38 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:08,639 Speaker 3: have more of a DJ Turner conversation with how well 39 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:12,679 Speaker 3: DJ Turner is playing Beast. And thanks to our guy 40 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 3: friend of the show, Jeremy Fowler, there's an NFL trade 41 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:18,919 Speaker 3: deadline primer that ESPN put out and they listed twenty 42 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 3: five players on that list. 43 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 2: Three come from the Bengals. We'll talk about that and 44 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 2: are their teams out there, and let's throw the Bengals 45 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,920 Speaker 2: in this bunch as well, that if they make an addition, 46 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 2: a substantial edition at the deadline, could they jump to 47 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 2: the contender line based on where they're at right now. 48 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 2: Before we get to any of that, let's set up 49 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 2: at the top sports stories from yesterday Opening Night in 50 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 2: the NBA. Yes Opening Night in the Association, could you ask, 51 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 2: if you're the NBA, for a better game to start 52 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 2: the season than a double overtime game between what will 53 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 2: be two contenders in a loaded Western conference, the Rockets 54 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 2: in the Thunder. 55 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 3: They did a brilliant job with the storylines of this game. 56 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:11,799 Speaker 3: Obviously defending champs open up at home banner night ring ceremony, 57 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 3: but you also have the Houston Rockets, the up and 58 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,679 Speaker 3: coming Houston Rockets, who, oh, by the way, have maybe 59 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,279 Speaker 3: the greatest player in the history of the Thunder franchise 60 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 3: in Kevin Durant on the other side, which they were 61 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 3: booing him every time he touched the ball. 62 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, so that was why he didn't touch the ball 63 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 2: late in the game environment was unbelievable and going to 64 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 2: double overtime one twenty five, one twenty four, that was awesome. 65 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 2: Shay Gildris Alexander, the raigning MVP Austin had five points 66 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 2: at halftime. It's crazy. He finished with thirty five in 67 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 2: the game. 68 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 3: You know, Tarren and I were talking yesterday afternoon about 69 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 3: putting together a little parlay with the points scores, and 70 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 3: I was like, what if you do like Steph, Luca, 71 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 3: KD and SGA to all score twenty plus, you won't 72 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 3: get crazy good odds, right, but you know that's decent. 73 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 3: And Shay Gilgess Alexander on FanDuel yesterday to score twenty 74 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 3: plus was minus four thousand, crazy, a lot of nervous 75 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,840 Speaker 3: people certified bucket getter and I did not end up 76 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 3: placing it. I wish I would have, obviously, but yeah, weird. 77 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 3: What about the ring ceremony the thunder rings last night, 78 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:28,280 Speaker 3: Elite Elite rings. But what I like most is like 79 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 3: that now you see all these rings that the top 80 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 3: comes off and there's even more diamonds and more stuff 81 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 3: inside the ring. The thunder ring, you can take the 82 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 3: top off and then take out a normal ring that you. 83 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 2: Can wear around. Yeah, it's like, what a great idea. 84 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,719 Speaker 3: If you have ever listened to Dan Patrick over the 85 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 3: last several years, he has been putting this idea out 86 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:53,360 Speaker 3: there for a long time. Because the rings have gotten 87 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 3: to the point where they're not actually wearable. You can't 88 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 3: actually show off your Super Bowl ring or your NBA 89 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 3: Finals ring or whatever it might be, because they've gotten 90 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 3: so big. Now the thunder gets smart enough to say, 91 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 3: all right, let's do something here that's actually wearable when 92 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 3: it comes to this ring. 93 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 4: YEP. 94 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:12,600 Speaker 2: Game two last night. 95 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 3: My favorite part of the whole ceremony last night, though, 96 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 3: was as they start raising the banner, all the players 97 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 3: come up and like touch it. 98 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 5: Yeah. 99 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 3: That I thought was a really cool thing. And I 100 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 3: don't know if that was necessarily planned as much as 101 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 3: they just went and did it themselves. 102 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 5: That was cool. 103 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:31,039 Speaker 2: Game two last night saw Luca and the Lakers square 104 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 2: off with Steph Curry and the Warriors. Warriors made a 105 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 2: good run at the end of the year last year 106 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 2: with Jimmy Butler. Jimmy Butler was fantastic. Last night, Curry 107 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 2: was good, not great. And I say that because you 108 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 2: mentioned those parlays Austin. I had Luca thirty plus points, 109 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:49,840 Speaker 2: eight plus boards, eight plus assists, but I added Steph 110 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 2: Curry twenty five or more. 111 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,160 Speaker 3: Curry finished with just twenty three. He was three for 112 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 3: nine from three point land. Jonathan Kamingo scored more three 113 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 3: winners than Steph Curry. Jimmy Butler had thirty one. He 114 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 3: was good, although Steph did hit one from about a 115 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 3: mile away. 116 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 2: He did. Luca was phenomenal, But Warriors right now just 117 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,839 Speaker 2: a better all around team than the Los Angeles Lakers. 118 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 3: I have discovered in watching basketball and the limited capacity 119 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,159 Speaker 3: that I do professional basketball, that I really like watching 120 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 3: Austin Reeves play and went and looked at the numbers 121 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 3: this morning. He had minus fourteen plus minus. 122 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 5: There you go. 123 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe he's not as good as I thought. Tonight 124 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,719 Speaker 2: in the Association, our guy Mowagger's New York Knicks. Yeah, 125 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 2: they take on the Calves, and I think there's a 126 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:37,920 Speaker 2: really good one late Austin Victor Webbin Yama Spurs, Cooper 127 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 2: Flag's MAVs. Don't forget the MAVs got Kyrie ad. 128 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,159 Speaker 3: I gotta ask Moe about later when it comes to 129 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 3: the lineup tonight for the Knicks. 130 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 2: Okay, stuff going on? What do you make going on 131 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,719 Speaker 2: in the NFL with Sean Payton and Russell Wilson. 132 00:06:55,000 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 3: Good for Russell Wilson, Yeah, good for him, man, because 133 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 3: Russell kind of has this character or this persona about 134 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 3: him and he broke that last night. He clapped back 135 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 3: at Sean Payton. Do you want to hear the audio? Yes, 136 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 3: So this is what Sean Payton, who was the former 137 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 3: head coach of Russell Wilson when he was in Denver, 138 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 3: this is what he had to say after the Broncos 139 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 3: beat the Giants led by Jackson Dart, who's backed up 140 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 3: by Russell Wilson this past Sunday. 141 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 6: I'm kind of respect for that organization. I spent four 142 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 6: in my early years there coordinating Super Bowl first game 143 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 6: in this stadium before nine to eleven close with the 144 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 6: Maritish family, and you know, they found a little spark 145 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 6: with that quarterback. I was talking to John Mayer not 146 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 6: too long ago, and I said, we were hoping that 147 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 6: that change would have happened long long after our game. 148 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 3: Saying we were hoping it would be Russell Wilson playing 149 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 3: for the Giants because we feel like he stinks well 150 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 3: then Russell went to x Russell posts, he said, quote 151 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 3: classless but not surprised. 152 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 2: And this line here, didn't realize You're still bounty hunting 153 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 2: fifteen plus years later through the media. Obviously a shot 154 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 2: at what I was a part of Bountygate. Yeah, and 155 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 2: the New Orleans Saints. 156 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 3: And then Russell added a hashtag let's rye up with 157 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 3: the laughing emoji at the end, and yeah, if you 158 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 3: look up Tony Pike Saints on Twitter or on Google, 159 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 3: you will see me taking some vicious hits from those 160 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:42,719 Speaker 3: bounty Gate Saints back in twenty two. 161 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,599 Speaker 2: Believable holligans. 162 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 3: And keep in mind, the reason you were in the 163 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 3: game with the utmost respect, yeah, was because they killed 164 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 3: the guy before you. If I'm not mistaken, was that 165 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 3: clawson Jimmy Jimmy Clauson got his bell run. I just 166 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 3: imagine at some point during the week defensive meeting room, 167 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 3: Greg Williams leading the defensive feasting and he starts playing 168 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 3: your preseason film against the Ravens and he's saying, we 169 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:12,560 Speaker 3: got to get this guy in the game now. 170 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 2: He said, guy that comes in the game, we got 171 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 2: to get him out quick. This guy gets just thinks 172 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 2: you get ugly. 173 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,680 Speaker 3: You guys get ten thousand dollars if you knock Jimmy 174 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 3: Clauson out of the game. We need Pike on the field. 175 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 3: They got me, and I had a couple of drops ensued. 176 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,959 Speaker 3: How about this going on in college basketball? Pat Kelsey 177 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:32,679 Speaker 3: at Louisville got his twenty twenty six point guard. He 178 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:34,959 Speaker 3: got him from the G League. Oh, that was a 179 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 3: time I thought, like G League means you're already past college. 180 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 3: That's not the case anymore. Tom Izzo said he doesn't 181 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 3: quote respect the NCAA power brokers who've allowed these moves 182 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 3: to happen. He said, I'm gonna get myself in trouble. 183 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 3: But I listened to people talk about how kids change. 184 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 3: Kids aren't the problem. We're the problem. This was sprung 185 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 3: on us again yesterday. Where a guy could be in 186 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 3: the G League for two or three years and then 187 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,319 Speaker 3: all of a sudden, he's eligible in college basketball. 188 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 2: You think that's okay? G leaguers coming back and playing 189 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:08,599 Speaker 2: in college I don't really care. No one cares anymore. Yeah, 190 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 2: it's it's the wild Wild West. By the way, that 191 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 2: recruits named London Johnson, former four star recruit. 192 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 3: It makes me think of former Bengal linebacker land In John. 193 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 2: That's right, That's right, uh AFC offense. 194 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 3: I don't know that I've ever been more disinterested in 195 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 3: high school and college basketball, like just because of all 196 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 3: of that. Sure, like it's it's got, it's so weird. 197 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,839 Speaker 3: There's so many different layers. It almost feels impossible to 198 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 3: follow it. Yeah, Like obviously at the local level, it's 199 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 3: it's easier to pay close attention to what you see 200 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 3: in Xavier and the mighty Mighty Norse are doing. But like, 201 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:48,960 Speaker 3: as a whole, it feels difficult to like follow college basketball. 202 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 2: Almost overwhelming to me. What else do we have? All 203 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 2: this year's AFC offensive or this week's AFC Offensive Player 204 00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:58,959 Speaker 2: of the Week. Let me guess, well, you could have 205 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 2: thought Jonathan Taylor no touchdown runs. You could have thought, well, 206 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 2: Bo Knicks had thirty three points in the fourth quarter, 207 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 2: and he ran the ball for two rushing touchdowns, and 208 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 2: he threw for two seventy nine and two passing touchdowns. 209 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 2: But that player is one Jamar Chase yep sixteen catches, 210 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 2: a buck sixty one and a touchdown tony. 211 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 3: Not only is Jamar Chase the AFC offensive Player of 212 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 3: the Week. But we have breaking news as it regards 213 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 3: to the Bengals opponent on Sunday. Okay, it is being 214 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 3: reported now that Jets quarterback Tarrod Taylor, who was expected 215 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 3: to start on Sunday against the Bengals, is now considered 216 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 3: day to day with a knee injury. Tarrod Taylor now 217 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 3: day to day with a knee injury. 218 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,439 Speaker 2: Well, the good news is is they didn't, at least 219 00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 2: from an ownership level, they didn't completely erase. 220 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 3: The confidence of Justin Fields if he would have to 221 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 3: come back in what a dumpster fire? You know, I 222 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 3: bet Torod Taylor doesn't want to play the Bengals anymore. 223 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 3: Do you remember twenty twenty season opener. He's the starting 224 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 3: quarterback for the Chargers. Justin Herbert is his backup. 225 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 2: Do you remember this? 226 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 3: No, before the game, I follow everything Tyrod Taylor to 227 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 3: Rod Taylor, Rod or Trod. It's Trod. Oh, you can 228 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 3: say Tyrod, though he doesn't care, my apologies, gets this 229 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:35,840 Speaker 3: injection or whatever, and they punctured his lung. Yep, he 230 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 3: couldn't play the injection. That was crazy. That was Burrow's 231 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 3: first career game. 232 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, how about that mentioned yesterday? Xavier picked eighth in 233 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 2: the Big East Media poll. I want to know for 234 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 2: I want to hear from Xavier folks today to Austin, Oh, 235 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 2: what's the what's the feel around the Xavier program? Is? 236 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:59,439 Speaker 2: Is this a free past year for Patino? 237 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 7: Well? 238 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 2: I would think so. Our expectations in today's landscape where 239 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,959 Speaker 2: the end, the transfer portal and and everything else is 240 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 2: running as rampant as it is, are there are there 241 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:15,079 Speaker 2: really free seasons for coaches? I would say, You know again, 242 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:15,440 Speaker 2: I'm not. 243 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 3: I wouldn't say I'm necessarily tapped in to hear, you know, know, 244 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 3: exactly what every Xavier fan is thinking, But I would 245 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 3: imagine and the sense that I get is that they're 246 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:28,440 Speaker 3: all still mad about Sean Miller and understand that it's 247 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 3: not an easy situation that Richard Patino is being asked 248 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 3: to come in and take over. And so I don't 249 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,080 Speaker 3: know that the expectations are high, but there is a 250 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 3: standard with Xavier basketball, and if you can, at the 251 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 3: bare minimum meet that standard and show the fans at 252 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 3: Xavier that Okay, there's something here, I'm building something, then yeah, 253 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 3: they'll they'll be fine. But I don't know that they're 254 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:53,599 Speaker 3: looking at this team thinking we got a chance to 255 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 3: go back to the Sweet sixteen or the Elite eight. 256 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 3: I don't know that they're thinking that one. 257 00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 2: But my question for again, because it's just kind of 258 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 2: been quiet, what are those minimum expectations? Like again, they're 259 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 2: they're they're not projected to be at the top of 260 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 2: the Big East, they're picked eighth locally, what are what 261 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 2: are the the feels around what would constitute as a 262 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 2: successful year one for Patino? I would like to know. 263 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:17,440 Speaker 2: And I know we have xavier folks that listen, so 264 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 2: call in or leave us to talk back today and 265 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 2: let us know. Also, before we get to our first break, Austin, 266 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 2: can I say something nonsports related that happened just about 267 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 2: a half mile from here last night, you know, the 268 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 2: the department store marshals. Yeah, are you familiar with you? 269 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 2: You want to get into this now? 270 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 5: Yeah? I need to. 271 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 2: I need to get it off my chest. Well before 272 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 2: we do. 273 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,880 Speaker 3: We're meeting prior to the show today and we're having 274 00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 3: a normal meeting. Everything's fine, We're talking about stuff and 275 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 3: there's this moment of silence and Tony then blurts out 276 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 3: to me, I got treated like a thief. 277 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 2: At Marshall's last night. 278 00:14:54,560 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 3: It's true, and I just like, yeah, listen, I said, Okay, 279 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 3: save it, we'll talk about it on the air. 280 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 2: I got home yesterday and Mayor tells me that, you know, 281 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 2: the the kids, Wilder and Wesley go to to preschool now, 282 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 2: and like. 283 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 3: She's like, hey, you already knew that. She didn't tell you. Yeah, yeah, No, 284 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 3: She's always letting other people know. 285 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 4: Ok. 286 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 2: She told me that, hey, the fire department is visiting 287 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 2: the kids school tomorrow and it's going to be cold 288 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 2: in the morning. And because they've grown, Wilder and Wesley's 289 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 2: coats don't fit them anymore. Oh so I'm like, well, 290 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 2: let's run over to Marshalls. Let's run it, because like, yeah, 291 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 2: Marshall's TJ Max. The mall is right across. Surely we 292 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 2: can find a coat for the kids somewhere. Sure, And 293 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:44,520 Speaker 2: we went into Marshalls, and, as does many trips, you know, 294 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 2: a trip to just get two coats turns into a 295 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 2: trip that, you know, each kid got like three outfits somehow, 296 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 2: some way, which really not in the budget, but we 297 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 2: did it anyway. And so we got home last night, 298 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 2: Austin and the kids wanted to try on their new outfits. 299 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 2: They want to do like a little fashion thing to show.

We don't need to 305 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 2: do that. So later setting the kids stuff out for school. 306 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 2: The next day, Wesley's coat still has that like ink 307 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 2: tag on it, the security tag. The security tag. These 308 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 2: things are just a pain. I know about this very 309 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 2: well time in retail. These things are a pain. Yeah, 310 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 2: and so because she doesn't have a winter jacket and 311 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 2: it was gonna be freezing this morning, what am I 312 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 2: tasked with doing? Riding back over to Marshall's. So tags 313 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 2: are already been taken off all the stuff, and after the 314 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 2: tags were taken off, Austin threw the receipt away as well, Okay, 315 00:16:58,440 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 2: this is your fault. 316 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 3: I don't want to hear you would have thought, or 317 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:05,479 Speaker 3: we even get to the end of this story. It 318 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 3: is not on the good people at Marshalls. It's on you. 319 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:12,879 Speaker 2: It is their job to take that tag off. Yes, 320 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 2: it is okay, and it's your job to keep the receipt. 321 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 2: When they they treated me, I walked in and right 322 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 2: to the front desk with the jacket in hand, like 323 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,879 Speaker 2: here it is here, I am, I'm coming in with 324 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,640 Speaker 2: the jacket.

They proceed to say, we need the receipt. 326 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,200 Speaker 2: I say, I don't have the receipt. And I went 327 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 2: to explain that the kids just put on a fashion 328 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 2: show and we took the receipt and it was in 329 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:43,840 Speaker 2: the garbage. 330 00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 3: They don't care the tag. They excuses that those people 331 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 3: here every day. 332 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,919 Speaker 2: I said, check the tapes. I used the term last night. 333 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:55,159 Speaker 2: Check the tapes, I said, check the footage. I was 334 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 2: here an hour and a half ago. Look at me 335 00:17:57,680 --> 00:17:59,479 Speaker 2: walking out as I paid for all this stuff. 336 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,119 Speaker 3: Now what I would have done in your situation, I 337 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 3: would have pulled my phone out and opened my bank 338 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 3: app and said here's the transaction. 339 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 2: That's the only thing that got me eventually out of it. 340 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 2: That's what you did. I opened my app, I said, 341 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 2: here is the transaction. I said, here's the card that 342 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 2: I used. And after minutes of this back and forth, 343 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:26,199 Speaker 2: after me being being treated like a convicted felon that 344 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 2: is in the market for stealing kids jackets. 345 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:34,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, but tag was eventually taken off Tony Pike, bad guy. 346 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 2: Yep, that's what I thought was gonna happen. How about 347 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 2: just in the future just keep the receipt. Well, you 348 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 2: live and you learn. But the problem is when they 349 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,879 Speaker 2: tried on, have you never take anything back? Yes, But 350 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,880 Speaker 2: here's the thing. They we put the jackets on them 351 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 2: and tried it on at the store because the jacket 352 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 2: sizing's a little different because you're wearing it over winter clothes. 353 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 2: So they already tried the jackets on and by the 354 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,399 Speaker 2: time we got home, they tried everything else on and 355 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 2: it fit. At that point, in my mind, there's no 356 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:08,400 Speaker 2: need to keep the receipt. I get it, so good job. 357 00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 2: Did you like? Where did you? 358 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 3: By the way, if you're listening to market, did you 359 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 3: disintegrate the receipt was garbage night, Why don't you. 360 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:18,119 Speaker 2: Just go pick it out of the trash? 361 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 3: Nope, bags had already been thrown in. It was recycling 362 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:23,120 Speaker 3: as well, so other stuff had been added in. 363 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,359 Speaker 2: But if you're listening for Marshalls and you want to 364 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 2: make this right, We'd love to have you as a 365 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:30,359 Speaker 2: sponsor of sin T three sixty.

It is Football in the Natti 375 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 2: since he three to sixty. Thanks to Skyline Chili. Thank 376 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 2: you for listening. Austin, we were asked a question yesterday 377 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 2: by a talkbacker, right or was it a caller? I 378 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 2: believe as a talkbacker, a talkbacker who wants to know 379 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 2: more about the three three five defense. And look, I 380 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 2: get it because over the last couple of weeks, you 381 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,360 Speaker 2: see has given up some yards on the defensive side 382 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 2: of the ball. And I will say this, and I 383 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 2: truly believe that you see is as big of a 384 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:36,120 Speaker 2: proponent as the bend, but don't break style of defense. 385 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 2: As you will find if you go back to game 386 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:45,400 Speaker 2: one against Nebraska. If you're telling me that you're going 387 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 2: to beat Nebraska on the ground by almost one hundred yards, 388 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:54,120 Speaker 2: I would say you have a chance to win the game. 389 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 2: If you tell me going into the game that you're 390 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:00,639 Speaker 2: gonna hold Nebraska to twenty with UC's I would have 391 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 2: said you have a chance to win the game. Now, 392 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 2: games outside of that, Bowling Green put up twenty on 393 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:08,720 Speaker 2: this defense, Kansas very good offense put up thirty four, 394 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 2: Iowa State put up thirty. UCF scored eleven. Oklahoma State, 395 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 2: albeit feeling like the game was closer than maybe what 396 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 2: it was, Oklahoma State was able to get yards almost 397 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:28,160 Speaker 2: at will on the ground, but again you look up 398 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:32,719 Speaker 2: and it's only seventeen points on the board. They bend, 399 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 2: they don't break. If you watch a UC game, their 400 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 2: style of play, their secondary, they are much softer on 401 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 2: the outside until a team crosses about the forty yard line, 402 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:47,399 Speaker 2: and then they start to tighten up. And as you 403 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,119 Speaker 2: get closer to the red zone, they tighten it up 404 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:52,360 Speaker 2: even more. And then when you're running a three, three, five, 405 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:53,640 Speaker 2: all of a sudden you get in the red zone 406 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 2: and for the most part, you're able to drop seven 407 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 2: or eight guys into coverage. That makes it hard on 408 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:01,159 Speaker 2: a quarterback. So I get that side of things, but 409 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 2: there are people that are wondering, is three three five 410 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 2: the right thing for this defense? Just based on the 411 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 2: three three five alone three down linemen, three linebackers, five 412 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:22,639 Speaker 2: defensive backs, so you're essentially taking out a defensive lineman, 413 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 2: you're essentially taking out a linebacker, and you're bringing in 414 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:31,119 Speaker 2: the extra defensive back. So it is on paper, supposed 415 00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:36,959 Speaker 2: to create confusion. It's an adaptable defense, so you can 416 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:42,119 Speaker 2: change your alignment snap the snap. Most offenses rely on 417 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:46,679 Speaker 2: safety reads one high, two high. There are times the 418 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 2: Bearcats will have three safeties in the game, so it's 419 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 2: an easy defense to drop eight in the coverage and 420 00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:58,439 Speaker 2: at the same time bring six or more guys on 421 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 2: a pressure. It makes it very hard for a quarterback 422 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 2: to distinguish what coverage is happening. On the back end. 423 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 2: Players can line up in different positions, they can shift 424 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:15,120 Speaker 2: before the snap. It's very hard for an opposing offense. 425 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 2: It creates a lot of flexibility in dropping into coverage 426 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 2: and in blitzing say, well, why don't more teams do it? 427 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 4: Well? 428 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 2: There are drawbacks to the three three five, and some 429 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 2: of those drawbacks are the reason that this team has 430 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:39,560 Speaker 2: given up points in a couple different games. Jalen Daniels 431 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 2: of Kansas is a mobile quarterback that creates issues for 432 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 2: a team. Jackson at Oklahoma State mobile quarterback creates issues. 433 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 2: The drawbacks to the three to three five vulnerability against 434 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 2: the run and mobile quarterback. Why because the longer the 435 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 2: quarterback can move around, and he can move around a 436 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:08,159 Speaker 2: long time because sometimes you're only rushing three, the easier 437 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:12,480 Speaker 2: it is to start to pick apart that defense. My 438 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:16,679 Speaker 2: biggest question with the three three five It is a 439 00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:24,160 Speaker 2: player dependent defense. So you need two things. You need 440 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:30,399 Speaker 2: above average to elite pass rushers, and you better have 441 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 2: a dude at nose tackle because if you're running the 442 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:41,400 Speaker 2: ball five offensive linemen, three defensive linemen, if you don't 443 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:44,439 Speaker 2: have someone up the middle, well, it's a lot easier 444 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 2: for those linemen to get to the second level and 445 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 2: all of a sudden you're getting gashed on the ground. 446 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:53,719 Speaker 2: If you don't have a traditional above average pass rusher, 447 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,639 Speaker 2: quarterbacks going to be able to sit back there for 448 00:24:56,680 --> 00:25:01,679 Speaker 2: a long time. And finally, tackling is the emphasis. You 449 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 2: just got less big dudes on the field. You got 450 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,919 Speaker 2: dbs and linebackers that need to make the tackles. So 451 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:13,919 Speaker 2: on paper, Austin, when I have Dante Corleone on paper, 452 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:18,680 Speaker 2: three three five is perfect, right because Dante Corleone takes two, 453 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 2: sometimes even three blockers on every play. What's the issue 454 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 2: about the Bearcats right now? Dante Corleone's playing less than 455 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 2: forty percent of the snaps. So when teams see Corleone out, 456 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:34,439 Speaker 2: I genuinely think teams have two offensive game plans when 457 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 2: they come in to play the Bearcats. I think there's 458 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 2: a Dante Corleone game plan and I think there's an 459 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 2: everybody else game plan. And what we've seen is when 460 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,960 Speaker 2: everybody else comes into the game, teams run the ball 461 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 2: in between the tackles and they have a lot of 462 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 2: success doing it. They don't have an elite pass rusher. 463 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 2: In my opinion, Now they're tackling at times has been better, 464 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,679 Speaker 2: But the drawback of the three three five is not 465 00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:03,919 Speaker 2: have that shutdown guy in the middle. If it's not 466 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,640 Speaker 2: Dante Corleone. It's a lot of single blocks and it's 467 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:08,720 Speaker 2: a lot of the guards getting up to the linebacker level, 468 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:13,400 Speaker 2: which creates problems that I think is, now, if you're 469 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:16,320 Speaker 2: the Bearcats, what you have to fight with if you're 470 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:24,919 Speaker 2: Tysonvite Like, if you can't if you can't play Dante 471 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 2: Corleone for seventy percent of the snaps, are you willing 472 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 2: when he's not in the game to go to more 473 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,560 Speaker 2: of a traditional four man front, which protects you against 474 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:35,679 Speaker 2: the run a little bit better. And I don't know 475 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 2: what that'll be on Saturday, Austin because what did we 476 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 2: just hear from Scott Souderfield yesterday about Baylor number one 477 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 2: passing attack in the country. So it might be better 478 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 2: tell Baylor, who is not a traditional ground and pound team. Hey, 479 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 2: if you want to come compete in this game, we're 480 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 2: gonna drop eight, Ben, but don't break right, Ben, but 481 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 2: don't break defense. If you want to run the ball 482 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 2: and you want to go on these long drives, be 483 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 2: my guest, but you're not gonna throw it on us. 484 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 2: Baylor as a team on the season runs it for 485 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 2: one hundred and forty yards per game while throwing it 486 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 2: for three forty four. So you might not see those 487 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 2: changes now, But I think going forward, you're going to 488 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,080 Speaker 2: have to decide, if you're the Bearcats, how you want 489 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 2: to approach a team when Dante Corleone's not in the game. 490 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:29,359 Speaker 2: The last thing it hurts you with Austin if you 491 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,119 Speaker 2: were let me ask you, if Austin, if you're an 492 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:36,760 Speaker 2: opposing team and you look at the Bearcat offense, who said, okay, man, 493 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:40,439 Speaker 2: they got dual threat running backs, they got an NFL 494 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 2: tight end, they got a lot of skill on the outside, 495 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 2: and they got a quarterback playing at a very high level. 496 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 2: What would be one of your ideas to win a 497 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 2: game against that offense? Keep the offense off the field. 498 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 2: Keep the offense off the field. There have been so 499 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 2: many times this year where teams have won on fifteen play, 500 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:03,480 Speaker 2: nineteen play, twelve play, eight minute drives, nine minute drives. 501 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 2: Why is that when you play this bend but don't 502 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 2: break style, teams are getting five and six yards on 503 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 2: a play. They're not getting home runs because you're defending 504 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:14,639 Speaker 2: against the home run. But these six yard plays and 505 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:18,119 Speaker 2: seven yard plays and eight yard plays, they just create second, manageable, 506 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,199 Speaker 2: third and manageable picking up a first down and just 507 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 2: eating up clock. It's a balance right now and there 508 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 2: to me is a little concern when you continue to 509 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:34,400 Speaker 2: give up those long drives, because it pushes an offense 510 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 2: at times to do things they're not characteristically doing. I've 511 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 2: talked about this before, and I've equated it to the 512 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 2: col Rain days in their prime dominant Goodman, Terrell Bird, 513 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 2: mister Simpson, Andre Revels, all those guys when Cole Rain 514 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,239 Speaker 2: was one of the best teams in the nation. They 515 00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 2: were so dominant on offense and they ran that triple option. 516 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 2: That your possessions on offense are limited, and so if 517 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 2: teams are just eating up clock and en plus play 518 00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 2: drives against UC Austin, it's only fair at one point 519 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 2: for an offense and for a quarterback to start pressing 520 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 2: and thinking, man, how many drives do we have left? 521 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 2: And for the Bearcats it's been good because they've been 522 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:15,719 Speaker 2: up in a lot of these games. What happens if 523 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 2: you're down seven or ten points and you're giving up 524 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:23,760 Speaker 2: a thirteen play drive, Now, what's that? That offense? What 525 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 2: soresby start to think, Ah, I gotta go make a play. 526 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 2: And that's when you're susceptible to the turnovers and the 527 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:32,520 Speaker 2: negative plays on an offense. Does that answer the three 528 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:35,080 Speaker 2: to three five that answers it to me? All right, 529 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 2: let's take some phone calls when we get back.

You know, it's good 574 00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 7: to have some friction in this. 575 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 2: Thank you, Thank you. 576 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 5: David. 577 00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 7: Hey, I did want to respond because it's always it's 578 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 7: one of those common questions about what is Xavier fans 579 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,240 Speaker 7: think any year, but especially this year. And it's funny 580 00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 7: because this year, unlike so many others, there is very 581 00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 7: little talk about Xavier basketball. And Number one, I think 582 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 7: it's because we don't really know this coach. There's not 583 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,160 Speaker 7: a lot. I couldn't even tell you. Yes, when we 584 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 7: had our exhibition game, I wasn't sure if he was 585 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 7: going to wear a suit like his father or the 586 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 7: pullovers like. 587 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:29,720 Speaker 4: You know so many of the other coaches. 588 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 7: I didn't know a single one of the guys for 589 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:35,200 Speaker 7: the most part, that suited up for that team, And 590 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 7: so it's hard to kind of even talk about, let 591 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 7: alone have an opinion about this team so far. That 592 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 7: combined with the fact that, honestly, if you talk to 593 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 7: a Xavier person right now, the top two topics are 594 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 7: going to be why don't we have anybody enrolling at Xavier? 595 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,200 Speaker 7: And why are we forcing all these kids to have 596 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 7: three years housing when they come on campus. Now, that 597 00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 7: seems to be the one thing everybody in Xavier Land 598 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 7: wants to talk about. Basketball has become like number three topic, 599 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 7: And I don't think until we actually start to actually 600 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 7: count the games where you get to hear what we 601 00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 7: truly believe we think about this team. 602 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 2: I think that's one of the hard things about today's 603 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 2: college basketball though, Like for you see so many new faces. 604 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 2: Now they did get guys to come back, but the 605 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 2: transfers do make it hard. But I think you know, 606 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:24,920 Speaker 2: relatively right now, you see there's an expectation it's it's 607 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 2: tournament or bust. So even without knowing exactly the coach 608 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:31,720 Speaker 2: or exactly what the roster looks like, does does there 609 00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:35,959 Speaker 2: start a conversation among Xavier fans of this is this 610 00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 2: is the minimum, this is this is where this has 611 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 2: to start. 612 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 7: I haven't had anybody tell me this is like where 613 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,440 Speaker 7: I expect them to be. It's almost to the feeling 614 00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:47,960 Speaker 7: of we'll take what we get. But I'll be honest 615 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 7: with you, I think this is a team that to 616 00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:52,720 Speaker 7: stay i'll say relevant. 617 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 4: I don't think they would ever be irrelevant. 618 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 7: But you know, this team needs to still finish. 619 00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:57,920 Speaker 4: Five hundred overall. 620 00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:01,960 Speaker 7: Okay, honestly the Big East too. They should not be 621 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 7: you know, the Georgetown's and the Butlers, and there's teams 622 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 7: that they should still be beating. In my opinion, that 623 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 7: all said too that's all based off of you know, 624 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:15,279 Speaker 7: the Xavier I'll say, or you know, we know what 625 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 7: Xavier basketball is about. But this is such a new 626 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,359 Speaker 7: thing short of the Sintos. Now that's the only one 627 00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 7: consistent thing we've got. And you hope that the Cintas 628 00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:26,399 Speaker 7: Center still continues to, you know, give that team those 629 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 7: extra points that they don't usually get on the road 630 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,080 Speaker 7: to help them, you know, stay relevant. I saw I 631 00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 7: think there's a there's a website out there that kind 632 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 7: of guesstimates their record for the year, and I think 633 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:42,840 Speaker 7: I saw that they were going to finish like eighteen 634 00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:44,920 Speaker 7: and sixteen and eight and eight in the Big East 635 00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 7: or nine to nine of the Big East or something 636 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:48,680 Speaker 7: like that. They literally had them five hundred across the 637 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:53,920 Speaker 7: board in both regular season and conference. I guess I'm 638 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:55,880 Speaker 7: good with that. You know, just give me a shift, 639 00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:57,440 Speaker 7: get us in the Big East and see what happens. 640 00:34:57,440 --> 00:34:59,239 Speaker 7: And I mean, I don't think any of us are 641 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:02,120 Speaker 7: sitting there going it's NCAA or bust. I just hope 642 00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:04,920 Speaker 7: we do. I just hope this team doesn't come out, 643 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 7: you know and finish two and sixteen in conference, right, 644 00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 7: And honestly, you know, something like that, especially with the 645 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:14,399 Speaker 7: way that the environment is that can set a program back. 646 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:17,160 Speaker 7: So sure there's hoping that that doesn't happen. Hey, I 647 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:18,840 Speaker 7: do want to say Tony, because I do believe that. 648 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:21,360 Speaker 7: I think it's awesome that you're getting put into the 649 00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:23,440 Speaker 7: Hall of Fame. It's well deserved. I'm a I'm a 650 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,040 Speaker 7: fan of UC football because I don't have a dog 651 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:29,120 Speaker 7: in the fight at Xavier.

I 684 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:55,400 Speaker 14: didn't go down on Saturday. But you know what's funny 685 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:57,239 Speaker 14: is I was listening to some of the game with 686 00:36:57,320 --> 00:36:59,440 Speaker 14: Joe and Byron, and when a guy would score and 687 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:01,759 Speaker 14: they'd say their name, I was like, was that us 688 00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:02,120 Speaker 14: or them? 689 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:02,919 Speaker 15: I don't even know if. 690 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:03,920 Speaker 7: We scored or they scored? 691 00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, because I don't know. 692 00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:06,240 Speaker 7: Anybody on the team. 693 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 5: Yeah. 694 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:09,080 Speaker 14: So I think Patino's got a free pass this year. 695 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,320 Speaker 14: I mean, how can you hold him accountable for anything? 696 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:14,320 Speaker 14: They had? The last minute transfer portal. 697 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,319 Speaker 15: Guys that are averaging two points a game for the 698 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:17,399 Speaker 15: most part last year. 699 00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:19,000 Speaker 14: So I don't think it's high at all. 700 00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:21,360 Speaker 15: But I, like Dave said, I don't. 701 00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:23,719 Speaker 14: Want him to go to in eighteen in the Big 702 00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:24,359 Speaker 14: East either. 703 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 2: How long? How long would be the I don't want 704 00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 2: to say how long would be the least? How how 705 00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,200 Speaker 2: long would would that honeymoon phase end? I mean, is 706 00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 2: it that he gets a year, get your guys in here. 707 00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:36,160 Speaker 2: In the next year, it's back to competing in the 708 00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:36,640 Speaker 2: Big East. 709 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,040 Speaker 14: I think that's got to be pretty much what it is. Yeah, 710 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:41,719 Speaker 14: I mean, I think he's got to pre pass this year. 711 00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:43,359 Speaker 14: But if they go out two years in a row 712 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:47,239 Speaker 14: and are completely blown away, then no, and then they 713 00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:49,360 Speaker 14: got to look differently. But I think he's a good coach, 714 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:51,799 Speaker 14: So I don't I got hopes there. But if you 715 00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:54,239 Speaker 14: guys were talking about the Louisville guy that came from 716 00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:57,680 Speaker 14: the te league, I've never cared less about college sports 717 00:37:57,719 --> 00:37:59,319 Speaker 14: than I do right now, and I don't know that 718 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 14: it'll ever turn back differently. It's just going in a 719 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:04,480 Speaker 14: direction that's not fun, honestly. 720 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:08,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, yeah, voice, great to hear your voice. And 721 00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:10,480 Speaker 2: I look forward to seeing that red and black on 722 00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:11,400 Speaker 2: on Saturday. 723 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:14,720 Speaker 17: Yep, we'll see thee glad. 724 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:18,200 Speaker 2: To hear you. That's the voice. I love it now Listen. 725 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:20,480 Speaker 2: I would have thought it a cold day and you 726 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:24,479 Speaker 2: know where when the voice would have said, hey, five 727 00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 2: hundred will be okay. That's crazy, but it is like 728 00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:34,200 Speaker 2: I get completely late in the window. Obviously, not a 729 00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:36,000 Speaker 2: lot of ways to fill out a roster based on 730 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:39,839 Speaker 2: what Sean Miller did. It's tough, but there are there 731 00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:43,239 Speaker 2: are vastly different expectations in this city right now. The 732 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:46,160 Speaker 2: expectations in Clifton, I don't even think are getting to 733 00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:47,680 Speaker 2: the tournament. You got to get in and win a game. 734 00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:50,640 Speaker 2: I legitimately think Wes Miller has to win a game 735 00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:51,440 Speaker 2: in the tournament this year. 736 00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:53,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean obviously.

In Kate, I'm trying to think who the 739 00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:06,200 Speaker 3: favorite is in the horizon. It's probably Youngstown State, it 740 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:08,879 Speaker 3: won't matter. It might be Youngstown State preseason. Yeah, come 741 00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:09,680 Speaker 3: February March. 742 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 2: In the Norse. 743 00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:13,319 Speaker 3: Last time I saw or I actually did, I pulled 744 00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 3: a Tony Pike last week and I started looking at 745 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:20,920 Speaker 3: Joe Lenardi.

So once I come to Cincinnati 824 00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:05,319 Speaker 21: to visit you guys, I'm gonna make sure I bring 825 00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:07,560 Speaker 21: the debit card and also a credit card so I 826 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:08,759 Speaker 21: don't get into that predicament. 827 00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:10,879 Speaker 5: That's that was tough. 828 00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:13,319 Speaker 21: The only suggestion I would make, Tony is I know 829 00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:15,440 Speaker 21: obviously the receipts are thrown away, and I'm one hundred 830 00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:16,600 Speaker 21: percent with you on that one. 831 00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:17,399 Speaker 17: Did you still have. 832 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:18,799 Speaker 4: The bag that the stuff came in? 833 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:19,800 Speaker 2: Yes? 834 00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:21,120 Speaker 4: Okay. 835 00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:22,879 Speaker 21: Did you bring the jacket in the bag? 836 00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:23,120 Speaker 22: No? 837 00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:25,080 Speaker 2: Because I thought I thought then it could look like 838 00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:27,320 Speaker 2: I was trying to conceal or hide something I walked 839 00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:30,719 Speaker 2: in just that way. I thought in my mind, I 840 00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:32,120 Speaker 2: was like, they could go to the tape and see 841 00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:34,280 Speaker 2: that I walk in with this. For for whatever reason, 842 00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:37,239 Speaker 2: I thought Marshalls has like the all twenty two like 843 00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:39,279 Speaker 2: just available to go check the tape at any point, 844 00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:41,239 Speaker 2: because I told them to check the tape and I 845 00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:44,359 Speaker 2: wanted to make them available that I if you need 846 00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:46,400 Speaker 2: to check the tape and watch me walk in with 847 00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:46,799 Speaker 2: this thing. 848 00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,120 Speaker 21: Maybe they have a small scouting staff like the Bengals, 849 00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:51,759 Speaker 21: and they just don't have the opportunities. 850 00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:55,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. There, the tapes are erased. Every tapes are erased 851 00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:56,160 Speaker 2: every thirty minutes. 852 00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:57,879 Speaker 21: This is this one beta Max. 853 00:43:57,920 --> 00:43:58,520 Speaker 4: They still use. 854 00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:03,080 Speaker 21: The suggestion for Sunday is Joe Flacco, just like you 855 00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:06,200 Speaker 21: know Dad on Thanksgiving. He could be the designated quarterback 856 00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 21: for both teams. Just call it a win for the Bengals. Yeah, 857 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:11,840 Speaker 21: Joe could play for both teams. He's had a lot 858 00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:13,640 Speaker 21: of bullets left in that arm, and he did play 859 00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:16,319 Speaker 21: for the Jets, so that could be suggested. And the 860 00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:18,840 Speaker 21: other thing is, yeah, why not just have a designated 861 00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 21: quarterback like the big old guys do. I think this 862 00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:24,640 Speaker 21: game scares me just a little bit because the Jets 863 00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:27,760 Speaker 21: the last two weeks have held Denver to thirteen points 864 00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:28,919 Speaker 21: and Carolina the. 865 00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:30,040 Speaker 4: Thirteen points in the defense. 866 00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:32,440 Speaker 21: Yeah, playing better, and they can run the football with 867 00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:36,520 Speaker 21: Brees ball, and we know what Cincinnati's issues have been 868 00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:39,440 Speaker 21: with stopping the run, so kind of a little bit scary. 869 00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:42,080 Speaker 2: They can run the ball, and I know they're ower 870 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:44,520 Speaker 2: and seven. I know personally Sauce Gardner is going to 871 00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:46,520 Speaker 2: look forward to an opportunity to go against Jamar Chase. 872 00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:49,240 Speaker 2: That's a good secondary. Still, they still got Quentin Williams. 873 00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:51,640 Speaker 2: You have to deal with there are talented players on 874 00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:54,880 Speaker 2: the roster. When you start ozhing seven, things just kind 875 00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:58,480 Speaker 2: of start the snowball. But like any other team in 876 00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 2: any other sport, if you let a team that's not 877 00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:04,720 Speaker 2: on your same level or struggling hang around, they start 878 00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:07,799 Speaker 2: to believe and then their confidence grows. And when a 879 00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:10,280 Speaker 2: team starts playing with that confidence when they're not good, 880 00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:12,760 Speaker 2: that can be where you get a little dangerous. 881 00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:15,680 Speaker 21: Off the Jetsy another quarterback that can look at Boomer size, 882 00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:17,560 Speaker 21: and he's gonna be in town too, So there's a 883 00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:19,120 Speaker 21: lot of options for Sunday. 884 00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:21,560 Speaker 2: Right even for the being taken care of as he's 885 00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:22,399 Speaker 2: being brought into town. 886 00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,080 Speaker 21: Yeah, that's another wild story, isn't it. 887 00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:25,359 Speaker 5: Man. 888 00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:27,799 Speaker 21: That's that's part for the course. Finally, I just want 889 00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:30,879 Speaker 21: to mention something about Russell Wilson. Good for him clapping back. 890 00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:33,480 Speaker 21: And I think the most or the least likable guy 891 00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:36,480 Speaker 21: in the NFL, Sean Payton. I root against the Denver Broncos, 892 00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:38,799 Speaker 21: probably the only team I root against because of him. 893 00:45:38,840 --> 00:45:41,040 Speaker 4: He's such a I don't want to swear him. 894 00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:43,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, be careful, don't make me use the dump button. 895 00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:44,520 Speaker 5: John, I won't. 896 00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:45,000 Speaker 16: I know. 897 00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:47,480 Speaker 21: I've been in the business too long. I trade myself 898 00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:50,640 Speaker 21: not to swear on radio, so I will not swear 899 00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:52,359 Speaker 21: on radio. But I do not like that guy. 900 00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:53,799 Speaker 2: H Here's the thing. 901 00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:59,160 Speaker 21: You look at Sean Payton and Mike McCarthy's resume, They're identical, 902 00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:01,640 Speaker 21: each one of super. They had the same winning percentage, 903 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:03,400 Speaker 21: same amount of time in the playoffs. 904 00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:04,319 Speaker 4: Mike McCarthy had. 905 00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:06,960 Speaker 21: Three straight twelve one seasons in Dallas, and yet everybody 906 00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:09,120 Speaker 21: looks at Sean Payton like he invented the sport, and 907 00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:11,560 Speaker 21: that Mike McCarthy is Fred Flintstone. You know, it's just 908 00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:14,399 Speaker 21: a they yep, somehow have the same resume and it's 909 00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:16,560 Speaker 21: just a lot of its perception. And I remember against 910 00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:19,560 Speaker 21: Denver all the time, mostly because of Sean Payton. Even 911 00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:21,759 Speaker 21: the year after Atlanta blew the twenty eighth to three 912 00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:24,080 Speaker 21: Super Bowl against the Patriots, he was having runs with 913 00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:26,040 Speaker 21: Matt Ryan, one of the classiest guys in the league. 914 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:28,160 Speaker 21: When Matt Ryan ran out of bounce kind of you know, 915 00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:29,640 Speaker 21: kind of dissing him about. 916 00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:31,520 Speaker 4: Losing the lead in the Super Bowl. It's like, he's 917 00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:32,920 Speaker 4: just someone I can't root for. 918 00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:35,360 Speaker 2: I'm with you, John, thanks for the call, man, Appreciate 919 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:38,359 Speaker 2: you all right, fellas, have a good one, all right. 920 00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:41,359 Speaker 2: One other quick quarterback note, Austin Jade Daniels is not 921 00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:44,880 Speaker 2: going to play this week.

He's starting with an 942 00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:56,040 Speaker 2: update on Trey Hendrickson. 943 00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:57,520 Speaker 24: Yeah, we'll just see. We'll take it day to day 944 00:47:57,560 --> 00:48:01,160 Speaker 24: right now. We'll see if anything be limited anybody else 945 00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:04,960 Speaker 24: expect some guys might just be limited. We'll just see 946 00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:11,319 Speaker 24: as we go. What's yes, that's product has been for years. 947 00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:15,400 Speaker 24: What makes well, They've they've invested there, you know, so 948 00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:19,160 Speaker 24: you've got some high draft picks. Quentin Williams is I mean, 949 00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:20,880 Speaker 24: he's he's the first one that jumps out at you. 950 00:48:22,560 --> 00:48:24,960 Speaker 24: I've always liked Harrys and Phillips. Their edge guys do 951 00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:26,640 Speaker 24: a great job coming off the edge as well. So 952 00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:29,880 Speaker 24: just starting with that front four is a problem and 953 00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:31,840 Speaker 24: they get a lot out of them. They're very disruptive. 954 00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:35,080 Speaker 24: Their defense is played played really well. I mean you 955 00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:37,280 Speaker 24: just watch especially this last two weeks. They'd really limited 956 00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:39,799 Speaker 24: these offenses in terms of points on the board and 957 00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:42,920 Speaker 24: make things difficult for you. So they've got a lot 958 00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:45,719 Speaker 24: of talent behind those guys as well. But I just 959 00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:48,480 Speaker 24: I think they've done a nice job limiting teams starting 960 00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:49,040 Speaker 24: with their front. 961 00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:53,359 Speaker 25: Are they equally effective against the past, Yeah, there are. 962 00:48:53,480 --> 00:48:56,799 Speaker 24: Everything is difficult, Everything is difficult. If you give a chance, 963 00:48:56,800 --> 00:48:59,360 Speaker 24: they'll be very disruptive in the pocket, affect your passing 964 00:48:59,360 --> 00:49:04,080 Speaker 24: game could be very mindful if how you attack them. 965 00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:07,640 Speaker 24: Had you known before it was on the dance, No, 966 00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:11,239 Speaker 24: I've always known who he is, you know, and m 967 00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:14,719 Speaker 24: guy coach there. I coached there, I mean, but but 968 00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:16,040 Speaker 24: now I don't know. 969 00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:20,160 Speaker 2: What's the difference or what how much of a difference 970 00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:21,719 Speaker 2: does it make if it's justin fields. 971 00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:26,600 Speaker 24: Versus they're both talented players capable of in their team. 972 00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:30,120 Speaker 24: Put them both a lot with different teams, and so 973 00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:32,440 Speaker 24: again they're they're both challenging, and whoever's out there is 974 00:49:32,440 --> 00:49:34,839 Speaker 24: out there, and we've got to be ready for both. 975 00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:38,200 Speaker 17: Yeah, they're not announcing the starter for at his advantages. 976 00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:41,200 Speaker 26: Does it make a big difference if best starters on Wednesday? 977 00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:45,480 Speaker 24: No, I think you gotta be ready for both of them. 978 00:49:45,719 --> 00:49:48,239 Speaker 27: Are you able to announce your starting guards for this week? 979 00:49:49,160 --> 00:49:50,239 Speaker 24: I won't do that quite yet. 980 00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:53,120 Speaker 27: In general, though, do you see that being week the 981 00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:55,360 Speaker 27: week going forward or would you like to really settle in. 982 00:49:55,560 --> 00:49:57,440 Speaker 24: I'd like to settle in, but but again, I think 983 00:49:57,440 --> 00:49:59,680 Speaker 24: we've got guys that are capable. So I like where 984 00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:02,719 Speaker 24: we're at because I think we got young guys that 985 00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:06,239 Speaker 24: are ascending. I think we've got veterans that absolutely can 986 00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:08,360 Speaker 24: get in there and get the job done. So I 987 00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:12,000 Speaker 24: feel really comfortable with where we're at there. What Kalen 988 00:50:12,080 --> 00:50:13,160 Speaker 24: rivers in his movid Guard. 989 00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:15,920 Speaker 27: Obviously he started off as a tackle in his movie Guard, 990 00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:16,479 Speaker 27: I mean. 991 00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:20,879 Speaker 24: He played both in college and so again great film 992 00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:23,600 Speaker 24: as a guard, and so we like him in there 993 00:50:23,600 --> 00:50:26,120 Speaker 24: as a past protector. I think he's approving in the 994 00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:29,200 Speaker 24: run game as well. So really smart guy, very mature, 995 00:50:29,440 --> 00:50:32,239 Speaker 24: for rookie, I don't want to look at him that way. 996 00:50:32,360 --> 00:50:35,720 Speaker 24: I guess just the way he conducts himself and seems 997 00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:38,279 Speaker 24: very mature. It seems like an experienced player. And so 998 00:50:38,360 --> 00:50:41,360 Speaker 24: again he's just continuing to get better in the balance. 999 00:50:42,080 --> 00:50:45,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, guy's developing those two guards. 1000 00:50:45,600 --> 00:50:48,279 Speaker 24: We need to win something. It hasn't been well. You're 1001 00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:50,000 Speaker 24: just asking a question for this week, but it's kind 1002 00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:52,040 Speaker 24: of taking care of itself in terms of the injuries 1003 00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:52,439 Speaker 24: so far. 1004 00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:57,600 Speaker 2: Build a website you love with wigs. Wow, that's what 1005 00:50:57,680 --> 00:50:59,800 Speaker 2: happens when you stream it off of YouTube. 1006 00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:03,520 Speaker 24: Calling for the Jets. But whoever's not starting is still 1007 00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:06,200 Speaker 24: in there as a guard getting work, getting physical work. 1008 00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:08,440 Speaker 24: Whenever we've got a Scout team card, we're trying our 1009 00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:10,839 Speaker 24: best to call it as we would in our terminology, 1010 00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:13,480 Speaker 24: and so they can work the techniques and so you 1011 00:51:13,520 --> 00:51:16,680 Speaker 24: still get to assess a player. And whether it's a 1012 00:51:16,680 --> 00:51:18,719 Speaker 24: young guy taking the Scout team work, he's still getting 1013 00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:20,800 Speaker 24: reps and you're investing getting better. And if it's a 1014 00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:24,160 Speaker 24: veteran player, focus on staying sharp for when your numbers called. 1015 00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:26,560 Speaker 24: So there's even though they're not the starter and getting 1016 00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:28,600 Speaker 24: the starter reps, they're still getting plenty of work on 1017 00:51:28,640 --> 00:51:29,400 Speaker 24: the scout team. 1018 00:51:29,360 --> 00:51:30,359 Speaker 14: Is following up on that. 1019 00:51:31,120 --> 00:51:33,520 Speaker 28: Is it hard to fight the urge whether at the 1020 00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:36,120 Speaker 28: you see the sample size is what you got from 1021 00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:38,919 Speaker 28: maybe your non starter on opening day like last week, 1022 00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:42,040 Speaker 28: compared to what you've seen over a course of five weeks. 1023 00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:44,600 Speaker 24: I think those are just always decisions we have to make, 1024 00:51:44,719 --> 00:51:46,839 Speaker 24: and so you can talk about any position and how 1025 00:51:46,840 --> 00:51:49,920 Speaker 24: we're going to handle it differently. I think we're in 1026 00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:53,160 Speaker 24: a good spot. So again, it's not something I'm stressed about. 1027 00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:55,239 Speaker 24: I think we have really good options and it'll take 1028 00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:58,759 Speaker 24: shape as that we goes long Do you take the 1029 00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:02,480 Speaker 24: long term views? Just you guys try to find an 1030 00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:06,120 Speaker 24: answer on who started. We're just again whatever gives us 1031 00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:06,879 Speaker 24: the best chance to win. 1032 00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:09,000 Speaker 29: Now that you've had Joe Flapfa here for a couple 1033 00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:11,880 Speaker 29: of weeks or so, maybe a couple more meetings, a 1034 00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:14,480 Speaker 29: couple more film sessions, what do you notice about just 1035 00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:17,520 Speaker 29: how he goes about that is themeanor how interactive he 1036 00:52:17,560 --> 00:52:18,480 Speaker 29: is during those sessions? 1037 00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:22,839 Speaker 24: Consistent, very consistent, never overwhelmed. You know, it's a lot 1038 00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:25,440 Speaker 24: of information being thrown at you, all things that he's 1039 00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:27,479 Speaker 24: been exposed to over the course of his career, maybe 1040 00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:30,120 Speaker 24: just called differently, maybe just operated differently. So it's just 1041 00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:32,000 Speaker 24: getting used to how we do it. But again, you 1042 00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:35,720 Speaker 24: never you never, You can never tell if it's something 1043 00:52:35,760 --> 00:52:37,920 Speaker 24: he's heard or hasn't heard. His his demeanor is always 1044 00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:41,080 Speaker 24: the same, which I appreciate because there's no wait, what 1045 00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:43,400 Speaker 24: is that, There's no panic or anything. He's he's solving 1046 00:52:43,440 --> 00:52:46,360 Speaker 24: the problem. He gets in the huddle. He calls to 1047 00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:48,480 Speaker 24: play with confidence when he's in the huddle, which is 1048 00:52:48,480 --> 00:52:50,799 Speaker 24: critical for the other ten guys to hear. Have that 1049 00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:56,040 Speaker 24: confidence slove on your quarterback. And again it's just impressed 1050 00:52:56,080 --> 00:52:58,000 Speaker 24: with with how quickly he spicked it all up. And 1051 00:52:58,600 --> 00:53:00,759 Speaker 24: again it always looks effortless. I know it's not. I 1052 00:53:00,760 --> 00:53:02,799 Speaker 24: know he's putting in a lot of work, but that's 1053 00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:04,919 Speaker 24: the feel that it comes off to everybody, and that's 1054 00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:05,919 Speaker 24: that's a positive. 1055 00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:05,960 Speaker 2: Thing for us. 1056 00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:08,479 Speaker 29: Point Yet where he's saying here's what I'm seeing, here's 1057 00:53:08,480 --> 00:53:10,480 Speaker 29: what I think, let's try this, or is it more 1058 00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:13,160 Speaker 29: just kind of taking the information and trying to work 1059 00:53:13,160 --> 00:53:13,600 Speaker 29: as well. 1060 00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:16,200 Speaker 24: Sometimes that happens more as the week goes. You know, 1061 00:53:16,239 --> 00:53:19,879 Speaker 24: early on you're giving them the plan, and then as 1062 00:53:19,880 --> 00:53:21,920 Speaker 24: the week goes and you've repped it and you've watched 1063 00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:24,680 Speaker 24: more tape. That's where more of the interactions come from. 1064 00:53:24,719 --> 00:53:27,919 Speaker 24: You're watching post practice tape after practice, and those guys 1065 00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:29,560 Speaker 24: will have ideas coming out of the quterback room, and 1066 00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:31,400 Speaker 24: so those are those are things that evolve over the 1067 00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:31,960 Speaker 24: course of the week. 1068 00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:35,799 Speaker 19: After the game, you spoke about the need to enunciate 1069 00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:39,879 Speaker 19: better and joked about your Oklahoma accent might be giving 1070 00:53:39,920 --> 00:53:42,759 Speaker 19: him trouble. Did you change anything, did you speak more 1071 00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:43,920 Speaker 19: slowly or anything? 1072 00:53:44,440 --> 00:53:47,400 Speaker 24: No, I just now now as the game ended, I 1073 00:53:47,520 --> 00:53:51,520 Speaker 24: know now what was causing issues. What words sounded similar 1074 00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:54,120 Speaker 24: during the game. It's hard to articulate what what is? 1075 00:53:54,520 --> 00:53:56,479 Speaker 24: What is it? Because you're not he's on the field, 1076 00:53:56,480 --> 00:53:57,759 Speaker 24: I'm on the sub line. So now that we know 1077 00:53:57,800 --> 00:54:00,719 Speaker 24: that we don't have to change how we operate, we 1078 00:54:00,760 --> 00:54:02,759 Speaker 24: can just focus in on all right, here's the eight 1079 00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:05,319 Speaker 24: plays we have out of that formation, and so when 1080 00:54:05,360 --> 00:54:07,879 Speaker 24: you hear another part of it, it'll ring a bell 1081 00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:10,759 Speaker 24: that or I can cheat if I'm saying a Z word, 1082 00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:12,680 Speaker 24: I can Hey, this one starts with the Z. I've 1083 00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:14,799 Speaker 24: done that my fn X. You know those are two 1084 00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:17,080 Speaker 24: receivers that's happened over the course of my entire life. 1085 00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:19,720 Speaker 24: If you're calling F stick or X stick quarterback, anybody 1086 00:54:19,719 --> 00:54:21,520 Speaker 24: in this room maybe couldn't hear what I just said, 1087 00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:23,759 Speaker 24: which one? And so you've always had to say, hey 1088 00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:26,759 Speaker 24: X like triple X or F is in front. You know, 1089 00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:29,520 Speaker 24: you would be shocked at how how sometimes you have 1090 00:54:29,560 --> 00:54:31,560 Speaker 24: to do that just to make sure everybody clearly hears 1091 00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:33,879 Speaker 24: what you're saying, and the receivers in the huddle hear 1092 00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:36,000 Speaker 24: that as well. And this is no different than that. 1093 00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:38,920 Speaker 27: Giure the biggest confidence y'all we'll be able to continuity 1094 00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:40,080 Speaker 27: office success. 1095 00:54:40,120 --> 00:54:41,680 Speaker 4: You pad them the last time, say six. 1096 00:54:41,520 --> 00:54:43,680 Speaker 24: Chords or so well, I think you know, with the 1097 00:54:43,719 --> 00:54:45,200 Speaker 24: receivers we have, when we when we do a great 1098 00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:47,840 Speaker 24: job into protection which our guys have had and allows 1099 00:54:47,920 --> 00:54:49,600 Speaker 24: us to attack you know, down the field and get 1100 00:54:49,640 --> 00:54:52,000 Speaker 24: our guys to ball in space that's critical, and then 1101 00:54:52,040 --> 00:54:53,719 Speaker 24: just continue to build on the run game. You know, 1102 00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:56,000 Speaker 24: that's we can see the pressure that takes off of 1103 00:54:56,040 --> 00:54:58,440 Speaker 24: everything when you're able to establish a ground game. And 1104 00:54:58,480 --> 00:55:01,680 Speaker 24: so I don't think that's rocket science for anybody that that. 1105 00:55:01,719 --> 00:55:04,920 Speaker 24: Those are great things to have, but when you can 1106 00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:07,000 Speaker 24: consistently do it and build momentum on that, then then 1107 00:55:07,000 --> 00:55:08,440 Speaker 24: you've got a chance to be really successful. 1108 00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:12,080 Speaker 29: Mentioned you wanted to show the film of Jamar blocking 1109 00:55:12,760 --> 00:55:14,480 Speaker 29: downfield to your guys. 1110 00:55:14,239 --> 00:55:19,359 Speaker 24: I forget that was how did they respond to that? 1111 00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:21,120 Speaker 24: What was the reaction like in the room. It's not 1112 00:55:21,200 --> 00:55:25,279 Speaker 24: a it's not an answer question the answer session, you know, 1113 00:55:25,280 --> 00:55:28,279 Speaker 24: it's just me showing and and there's not always a 1114 00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:31,400 Speaker 24: lot of verbal feedback that we get. So I know, 1115 00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:33,480 Speaker 24: I just I just want to show our great players 1116 00:55:33,880 --> 00:55:37,239 Speaker 24: doing the little things for everybody else to see. I 1117 00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:39,279 Speaker 24: think we've got a lot of young talented players that 1118 00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:44,960 Speaker 24: over time we'll figure better understand. Hey, here's here's the 1119 00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:46,920 Speaker 24: little things that are getting someone like Jamar to that 1120 00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:50,319 Speaker 24: level and to that level. And I just so I 1121 00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:51,839 Speaker 24: think the more we can show that, the better. 1122 00:55:52,520 --> 00:55:54,680 Speaker 14: How critical is the stress go into the buy this 1123 00:55:54,719 --> 00:55:56,040 Speaker 14: whole chunk of games to. 1124 00:55:57,360 --> 00:55:58,440 Speaker 3: Pittsburgh game, going. 1125 00:55:58,239 --> 00:56:02,200 Speaker 24: Into which just this game is really all that I 1126 00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:04,400 Speaker 24: care about. You know, we'll we'll focus on whatever is 1127 00:56:04,440 --> 00:56:08,279 Speaker 24: after that after that. But right now, being a la 1128 00:56:08,280 --> 00:56:10,239 Speaker 24: Hal is just a little bit of success. We haven't 1129 00:56:10,239 --> 00:56:13,080 Speaker 24: had a lot of success, just a little bit. I've 1130 00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:15,359 Speaker 24: seen how we've handled the adversity. When things go bad, 1131 00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:17,359 Speaker 24: it's guys have responded the right way, found a way 1132 00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:19,200 Speaker 24: to get a big win. Okay, now you put that 1133 00:56:19,239 --> 00:56:21,719 Speaker 24: one behind and you keep keep trying to improve. It's 1134 00:56:21,800 --> 00:56:23,720 Speaker 24: we we have not come close to reaching our potential 1135 00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:25,920 Speaker 24: as a team yet, and so that's all important is 1136 00:56:26,400 --> 00:56:28,480 Speaker 24: guys continue to improve, and so we play our best 1137 00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:31,120 Speaker 24: game against the Jets, and then whatever comes at us 1138 00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:32,440 Speaker 24: after that, we can focus on that. 1139 00:56:32,840 --> 00:56:35,839 Speaker 2: Whenever we ask you about camp Taylor brid you use 1140 00:56:35,960 --> 00:56:36,960 Speaker 2: the word consistency. 1141 00:56:37,040 --> 00:56:39,480 Speaker 24: That's the most important with him. What does consistency look 1142 00:56:39,600 --> 00:56:42,440 Speaker 24: like for him? Well, just from snap to snap, you know, 1143 00:56:42,600 --> 00:56:46,239 Speaker 24: consistency in all areas. I won't get specific with it. 1144 00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:48,120 Speaker 24: But he's a guy a pool for I want him 1145 00:56:48,120 --> 00:56:49,800 Speaker 24: to do well. I want him to have the opportunity. 1146 00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:51,680 Speaker 24: I want him take advantage of the opportunity. We've seen what 1147 00:56:51,680 --> 00:56:54,160 Speaker 24: it looks like when it's really good, and I think 1148 00:56:54,200 --> 00:56:55,920 Speaker 24: he's focused on on regaining that. 1149 00:56:56,160 --> 00:56:58,239 Speaker 22: You still believe he can help this team. 1150 00:56:58,280 --> 00:57:02,360 Speaker 24: I do absolutely. How happy or how would you characterize 1151 00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:05,200 Speaker 24: this at it is that it has been good, you know, 1152 00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:10,080 Speaker 24: And again he understands we're looking for exactly and we'll 1153 00:57:10,120 --> 00:57:13,080 Speaker 24: just we'll look to see that consistency show up, but 1154 00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:13,880 Speaker 24: I trust that I can. 1155 00:57:15,640 --> 00:57:18,320 Speaker 30: It seems like year to year, early in the season, 1156 00:57:18,400 --> 00:57:21,640 Speaker 30: the run game doesn't have a lot of carry over 1157 00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:22,440 Speaker 30: the previous year. 1158 00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:23,640 Speaker 4: It seems like you're always having. 1159 00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:25,880 Speaker 31: To kind of reinvent that a little bit each year 1160 00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:27,000 Speaker 31: in different ways. 1161 00:57:27,040 --> 00:57:27,720 Speaker 5: Why is that? 1162 00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:30,640 Speaker 30: Do you think that maybe it's not that, No, like 1163 00:57:30,720 --> 00:57:32,920 Speaker 30: it changes year to year where you have to Is 1164 00:57:32,960 --> 00:57:35,400 Speaker 30: it just different personnel or different guys. 1165 00:57:35,440 --> 00:57:37,959 Speaker 24: I wouldn't. I wouldn't necessarily agree with that. The truth 1166 00:57:37,960 --> 00:57:40,760 Speaker 24: with you, I think the bulk of what we've done 1167 00:57:41,160 --> 00:57:44,440 Speaker 24: is carryover. Maybe it's window dressed a little bit differently. 1168 00:57:44,880 --> 00:57:47,800 Speaker 24: It's just more game plan week to week stuff. There's 1169 00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:51,040 Speaker 24: always things as you evolve with your align your backs 1170 00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:53,200 Speaker 24: and just kind of what you're doing formationally that Okay, 1171 00:57:53,240 --> 00:57:55,640 Speaker 24: now we need to focus on this element of the 1172 00:57:55,680 --> 00:57:57,640 Speaker 24: run game that can help us. So you add that 1173 00:57:57,800 --> 00:58:00,400 Speaker 24: and you focus on that. But overall, I think if 1174 00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:02,240 Speaker 24: you looked at the call sheet one year ago today 1175 00:58:02,280 --> 00:58:04,640 Speaker 24: and the call sheet today, you're going to see very 1176 00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:05,640 Speaker 24: very similar stuff. 1177 00:58:05,800 --> 00:58:08,800 Speaker 30: One of the biggest challenges this year, as you guys 1178 00:58:08,840 --> 00:58:11,440 Speaker 30: have tried to dig out of this about the thing 1179 00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:13,800 Speaker 30: to kid going would have been the biggest differences and 1180 00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:15,720 Speaker 30: challenges that you felt like over the last month that 1181 00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:16,680 Speaker 30: you've mentioned away. 1182 00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:20,640 Speaker 24: Well, I think again it's you guys probably tired of 1183 00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:23,160 Speaker 24: me saying this, But playing with a lead helps the 1184 00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:26,240 Speaker 24: run game so much, helps you stick with it, be 1185 00:58:26,280 --> 00:58:29,600 Speaker 24: consistent with it. This was the first game in a 1186 00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:32,280 Speaker 24: long time where we have had the opportunity to do 1187 00:58:32,320 --> 00:58:34,880 Speaker 24: that as a team, and so again having a lead 1188 00:58:35,320 --> 00:58:37,360 Speaker 24: and feeling like every possession is not life or death, 1189 00:58:37,840 --> 00:58:41,360 Speaker 24: to stay in this game and be able to just 1190 00:58:41,440 --> 00:58:43,840 Speaker 24: stick with some runs, call a run on second ten 1191 00:58:44,040 --> 00:58:46,840 Speaker 24: and not feel like, right if we're in a third 1192 00:58:46,840 --> 00:58:48,480 Speaker 24: and eight, you know we got an issue here. So 1193 00:58:49,160 --> 00:58:52,360 Speaker 24: I think just being able to as a team hang 1194 00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:54,360 Speaker 24: in that game and have a lead allowed us to 1195 00:58:54,400 --> 00:58:56,200 Speaker 24: keep sticking with that stuff and give us confidence in 1196 00:58:56,200 --> 00:58:58,439 Speaker 24: that game. And that's just the difference in that game 1197 00:58:58,440 --> 00:59:00,920 Speaker 24: as opposed to the previous four where we didn't have 1198 00:59:01,000 --> 00:59:01,320 Speaker 24: enough of that. 1199 00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:03,800 Speaker 27: Even felt like early in the season like Chase Brown 1200 00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:05,960 Speaker 27: would turned like a zero yard run into a two 1201 00:59:06,040 --> 00:59:08,440 Speaker 27: yard run and then last week a five yard or 1202 00:59:08,440 --> 00:59:09,960 Speaker 27: into like a thirty yarder. What do you thought of 1203 00:59:10,000 --> 00:59:12,320 Speaker 27: just disability to break tackles this season. 1204 00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:17,720 Speaker 24: He's always had that ability to play through contact, to 1205 00:59:17,840 --> 00:59:22,600 Speaker 24: gain yards after contact, in space, to span off of people, 1206 00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:25,480 Speaker 24: and so I've always seen that element to him, and 1207 00:59:25,600 --> 00:59:26,680 Speaker 24: I think we got to see a lot more of 1208 00:59:26,720 --> 00:59:29,040 Speaker 24: it because we got him in more space last week. 1209 00:59:29,480 --> 00:59:32,760 Speaker 24: What have your conversation has been like with Al? I'm 1210 00:59:32,800 --> 00:59:35,480 Speaker 24: out tact better. Well, there's not much I need to 1211 00:59:35,480 --> 00:59:37,600 Speaker 24: say about that. I think that's that's they take that 1212 00:59:37,640 --> 00:59:40,560 Speaker 24: to heart, and Al's dine a great job focusing on that, 1213 00:59:40,600 --> 00:59:43,280 Speaker 24: emphasizing it. It's not something we've just let fall by 1214 00:59:43,320 --> 00:59:45,640 Speaker 24: the wayside. It's it's always been a focus for us, 1215 00:59:45,680 --> 00:59:47,960 Speaker 24: and it's unfortunate what shows up in the games because 1216 00:59:48,360 --> 00:59:51,000 Speaker 24: it's not where preach, it's not where we rep So 1217 00:59:51,200 --> 00:59:53,280 Speaker 24: he does a great job of taking the bull by them. 1218 00:59:53,280 --> 00:59:53,680 Speaker 24: Watch there. 1219 00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:55,880 Speaker 25: Were you a little bit surprised though, given how much 1220 00:59:55,880 --> 00:59:58,360 Speaker 25: focus there was on it, and even Al talked about this, 1221 00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:02,320 Speaker 25: and some of the players focus on training company off season, 1222 01:00:02,360 --> 01:00:05,600 Speaker 25: and you're at the point now where you're still looking. 1223 01:00:06,200 --> 01:00:09,320 Speaker 24: I expect to tackle while so I guess two point, 1224 01:00:09,360 --> 01:00:12,160 Speaker 24: are you surprised when it doesn't happen? Anything can happen 1225 01:00:12,200 --> 01:00:13,360 Speaker 24: and we just got to be better for it. 1226 01:00:14,080 --> 01:00:17,880 Speaker 14: Still feel good about the the linebacker combination with Barrett. 1227 01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:21,960 Speaker 19: Ted was miked up for sound last week, and the 1228 01:00:22,160 --> 01:00:26,480 Speaker 19: video compilation on the website's pretty amusing. Can you describe 1229 01:00:26,560 --> 01:00:30,600 Speaker 19: his game persona? 1230 01:00:32,280 --> 01:00:39,440 Speaker 24: His game persona, it's good to start right there. Good 1231 01:00:40,240 --> 01:00:43,280 Speaker 24: always high energy conversations. I think. I think if three 1232 01:00:43,320 --> 01:00:45,880 Speaker 24: words describe him high energy conversations. 1233 01:00:48,280 --> 01:00:48,760 Speaker 9: Tom. 1234 01:00:48,960 --> 01:00:50,960 Speaker 24: Anytime I go to him with something, it's a high 1235 01:00:51,040 --> 01:00:54,920 Speaker 24: energy conversation in response, which is great. I like high energy. 1236 01:00:55,120 --> 01:00:57,480 Speaker 24: I don't want doll, don't want to be out here. 1237 01:00:57,520 --> 01:00:59,959 Speaker 24: I want high energy. Let's get this fixed. Yeah, let's 1238 01:01:00,040 --> 01:01:05,480 Speaker 24: do that. Let's stick with this, Ted Carris, high energy conversation. 1239 01:01:05,880 --> 01:01:10,560 Speaker 24: Really all in all phases of life, great quality to have. 1240 01:01:11,560 --> 01:01:14,720 Speaker 24: I love. High energy brings some juice, you know, and 1241 01:01:14,840 --> 01:01:17,520 Speaker 24: Ted brings some juice, and so I appreciate that. 1242 01:01:17,720 --> 01:01:19,480 Speaker 26: Has that been one of the longerrated signings over the 1243 01:01:19,560 --> 01:01:21,160 Speaker 26: years of the culture of that John wanted to buildings that. 1244 01:01:22,320 --> 01:01:26,600 Speaker 24: Yeah, No, I think that's a good point. How many 1245 01:01:26,720 --> 01:01:29,560 Speaker 24: extensions has he gotten here? One or two? Two? 1246 01:01:29,680 --> 01:01:29,880 Speaker 7: Yeah? 1247 01:01:29,920 --> 01:01:32,200 Speaker 24: Two, He's done a great job. I mean, it's it's 1248 01:01:32,600 --> 01:01:37,040 Speaker 24: to have a center that cares so much about the 1249 01:01:37,120 --> 01:01:40,280 Speaker 24: nuances of the position and helping lead the group in 1250 01:01:40,320 --> 01:01:43,320 Speaker 24: conjunction with the quarterback. I think it's critical Ted Ted. 1251 01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:45,640 Speaker 24: You know, his dad's a coach, he's the son of 1252 01:01:45,640 --> 01:01:49,080 Speaker 24: a coach. He's he's invested, so he understands, you know, 1253 01:01:49,120 --> 01:01:51,080 Speaker 24: bringing people along with him, getting the most out of people, 1254 01:01:51,240 --> 01:01:54,920 Speaker 24: doing a great job with communication, solving problems, staying one 1255 01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:58,080 Speaker 24: step ahead of the defense. And I think he's got 1256 01:01:58,080 --> 01:02:01,480 Speaker 24: a great rapport with with Joe and everybody else's played 1257 01:02:01,520 --> 01:02:03,400 Speaker 24: quarterback with us day. They've got trust that he knows 1258 01:02:03,440 --> 01:02:05,480 Speaker 24: he's talking about it, he's done, he's done the work 1259 01:02:05,560 --> 01:02:08,200 Speaker 24: leading up to a Wednesday install meeting. He's already watched 1260 01:02:08,240 --> 01:02:12,200 Speaker 24: the tape. He knows. So I think that that's I 1261 01:02:12,240 --> 01:02:15,680 Speaker 24: can't rate on a scale of signings who's best and 1262 01:02:15,680 --> 01:02:18,920 Speaker 24: who's not, but certainly, God that we have you. 1263 01:02:18,920 --> 01:02:23,360 Speaker 32: Guys have had such a different schedule from Sunday to 1264 01:02:23,480 --> 01:02:27,560 Speaker 32: Monday to Thursday to four thirty starts. How nice is 1265 01:02:27,600 --> 01:02:30,640 Speaker 32: it just to have some one o'clocks moving forward knowing, Hey, 1266 01:02:30,760 --> 01:02:31,680 Speaker 32: that's our schedule. 1267 01:02:31,880 --> 01:02:36,680 Speaker 24: Yeah, I guess you're right, I yeah, Yeah, that's that's 1268 01:02:36,720 --> 01:02:38,720 Speaker 24: how it goes and you know, you look at I'm 1269 01:02:38,760 --> 01:02:40,960 Speaker 24: doing the schedule for the last half the season, and 1270 01:02:40,960 --> 01:02:42,880 Speaker 24: we're gonna deal with more of that, you know, Thursday 1271 01:02:42,880 --> 01:02:45,640 Speaker 24: games and Sunday night games and possible Saturday games. So 1272 01:02:46,840 --> 01:02:49,040 Speaker 24: you just deal with as it comes. Our guys are 1273 01:02:49,040 --> 01:02:51,080 Speaker 24: pretty used to whatever routine we throw at them, whether 1274 01:02:51,120 --> 01:02:52,920 Speaker 24: it's a short week on a Thursday game, whether it's 1275 01:02:52,920 --> 01:02:54,960 Speaker 24: an extra bonus day on a Monday after Thursday or 1276 01:02:54,960 --> 01:02:58,480 Speaker 24: by or sometimes we'll get those six day weeks post 1277 01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:02,440 Speaker 24: Monday night. So the guys generally respond really well, and 1278 01:03:02,680 --> 01:03:05,560 Speaker 24: coaches understand the workflow. We've got what we've got to 1279 01:03:05,600 --> 01:03:07,560 Speaker 24: get done, and trust that the work is going to 1280 01:03:07,560 --> 01:03:08,840 Speaker 24: get done. Our guys will have a chance to be 1281 01:03:09,640 --> 01:03:09,840 Speaker 24: are you. 1282 01:03:09,880 --> 01:03:12,680 Speaker 4: Getting closer and closer to that weak game? 1283 01:03:13,840 --> 01:03:17,560 Speaker 24: You know with the offense, defense everybody. I think the 1284 01:03:17,600 --> 01:03:19,320 Speaker 24: beauty of it is we several ways to go, right. 1285 01:03:19,840 --> 01:03:22,440 Speaker 24: I think, you know, there's we won and I'm thankful 1286 01:03:22,480 --> 01:03:25,640 Speaker 24: for that, but that doesn't mean that it's cleaning in 1287 01:03:25,680 --> 01:03:27,600 Speaker 24: all three phases. And there's not a lot of things 1288 01:03:27,640 --> 01:03:29,360 Speaker 24: that we can prove on and and that's a good 1289 01:03:29,440 --> 01:03:32,160 Speaker 24: thing that we found a way to win a tight 1290 01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:35,400 Speaker 24: game all three of our wins have been find a 1291 01:03:35,400 --> 01:03:38,360 Speaker 24: way to win games. They haven't been. We race out 1292 01:03:38,400 --> 01:03:40,600 Speaker 24: and we were holding a fourteen point lead, which I'd 1293 01:03:40,640 --> 01:03:43,120 Speaker 24: love to do at some point. But but there's also 1294 01:03:43,800 --> 01:03:46,040 Speaker 24: an element to it's good that we've we've had to 1295 01:03:46,040 --> 01:03:48,400 Speaker 24: find ways to win, and we just got to continue 1296 01:03:48,400 --> 01:03:49,920 Speaker 24: to build off of that. That's a good quality to 1297 01:03:49,960 --> 01:03:51,440 Speaker 24: have that you've seen yourself do that at the end 1298 01:03:51,440 --> 01:03:53,480 Speaker 24: of the game.

I 1462 01:11:10,520 --> 01:11:14,519 Speaker 3: would be all about throwback unis. Yeah, it's it's difficult 1463 01:11:14,600 --> 01:11:19,280 Speaker 3: with the NFL's uniform rules. Yeah, the Bengals basically mixed 1464 01:11:19,360 --> 01:11:23,960 Speaker 3: any possibility of a sixties or seventies era throwback when 1465 01:11:23,960 --> 01:11:29,120 Speaker 3: they went to the white Bengal helmet. Because what's unique 1466 01:11:29,120 --> 01:11:32,240 Speaker 3: about the Bengal orange helmets is that those are not 1467 01:11:32,520 --> 01:11:36,360 Speaker 3: decals or any Bengals helmet. The stripes are not decals. 1468 01:11:36,920 --> 01:11:40,240 Speaker 3: Those are painted on, which is very unique. That doesn't 1469 01:11:40,280 --> 01:11:42,360 Speaker 3: happen in a lot of NFL cities or NFL You 1470 01:11:42,360 --> 01:11:44,800 Speaker 3: see a lot of these videos as just replacing the decals. 1471 01:11:44,800 --> 01:11:45,200 Speaker 2: Correct. 1472 01:11:45,280 --> 01:11:49,680 Speaker 3: And so theoretically, if the Bengals stripes were decals, you 1473 01:11:49,680 --> 01:11:53,000 Speaker 3: could remove the decals and put like the pumpkinhead Bengals 1474 01:11:53,520 --> 01:11:55,960 Speaker 3: on the side of it and then get figure out 1475 01:11:55,960 --> 01:11:59,160 Speaker 3: the rest with the uniform thing. But because of that rule, 1476 01:11:59,320 --> 01:12:04,120 Speaker 3: they can't. But they do have a uniform slot open, 1477 01:12:04,840 --> 01:12:10,320 Speaker 3: which would mean they could do a throwback of the 1478 01:12:10,400 --> 01:12:14,200 Speaker 3: eighties or nineties era Bengals. Yeah, if they wanted to 1479 01:12:14,240 --> 01:12:17,000 Speaker 3: do that and I think they would be smart to 1480 01:12:17,040 --> 01:12:19,519 Speaker 3: do that, and I just get I don't know this 1481 01:12:19,600 --> 01:12:21,280 Speaker 3: for sure. I have not talked to anybody inside that 1482 01:12:21,400 --> 01:12:25,840 Speaker 3: organization about this, but I feel like, not next year, 1483 01:12:25,880 --> 01:12:29,559 Speaker 3: but twenty twenty seven, there's gonna be something special come 1484 01:12:29,600 --> 01:12:34,760 Speaker 3: because it's gonna be their sixtieth anniversary season and they're 1485 01:12:34,760 --> 01:12:36,599 Speaker 3: gonna change the way they do the Ring of Honor, 1486 01:12:36,640 --> 01:12:38,599 Speaker 3: and they'll probably bring some new guys in and maybe 1487 01:12:38,640 --> 01:12:41,879 Speaker 3: catch up. But I think there's a possibility for something 1488 01:12:42,080 --> 01:12:45,040 Speaker 3: throwback like in that twenty seven season. 1489 01:12:45,160 --> 01:12:49,160 Speaker 38: Okay, Tony, during your two week absence, my bucksome old 1490 01:12:49,280 --> 01:12:52,880 Speaker 38: lady made the observation, Wow, he really is part time Pike, 1491 01:12:52,920 --> 01:12:56,160 Speaker 38: And I said, no, I think Tony really was given 1492 01:12:56,240 --> 01:13:00,080 Speaker 38: the gate.

It's always good to hear from. What up shoplifting, Tony? 1564 01:16:07,439 --> 01:16:07,559 Speaker 28: Oh? 1565 01:16:08,320 --> 01:16:10,280 Speaker 2: What's a better matchup for the Bengals this weekend? Is 1566 01:16:10,280 --> 01:16:14,280 Speaker 2: it going against Fields or Tailor? I know Tarad is. 1567 01:16:14,280 --> 01:16:18,559 Speaker 3: Day to day, but Fields could probably beat the Bengals 1568 01:16:18,560 --> 01:16:20,720 Speaker 3: with his legs, definitely not his passing game. 1569 01:16:20,800 --> 01:16:24,120 Speaker 2: But I'm hoping that this weekend's. 1570 01:16:23,600 --> 01:16:26,320 Speaker 44: An easy weekend for the Bengals to pull out a win. 1571 01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:29,760 Speaker 3: But you never know. Any given Sunday, have. 1572 01:16:29,840 --> 01:16:32,639 Speaker 17: A new thoughts, have a blessed day, Tony. 1573 01:16:32,680 --> 01:16:33,040 Speaker 4: I'm happy. 1574 01:16:33,920 --> 01:16:38,080 Speaker 2: I worry after watching Rogers just relax in the pocket. 1575 01:16:38,680 --> 01:16:41,640 Speaker 2: I worry about the lack of pass rush and the 1576 01:16:42,280 --> 01:16:45,160 Speaker 2: poor tackling. I would worry more about Fields playing in 1577 01:16:45,200 --> 01:16:45,960 Speaker 2: this game than Taylor. 1578 01:16:47,560 --> 01:16:49,920 Speaker 3: I think you could apply the same thing and go 1579 01:16:49,960 --> 01:16:53,559 Speaker 3: opposite and say I'd rather have Justin Fields make poor 1580 01:16:53,600 --> 01:16:58,519 Speaker 3: decisions rather than beat you with his athleticism. But I 1581 01:16:58,560 --> 01:17:03,599 Speaker 3: do think a to Rod Taylor with a compromised knee right, 1582 01:17:03,880 --> 01:17:07,960 Speaker 3: it might be a better matchupp Speaking. 1583 01:17:07,640 --> 01:17:12,000 Speaker 45: Of wind schoolers, she spreads when you went off to college, Ricky, 1584 01:17:12,960 --> 01:17:16,240 Speaker 45: I did a full spread for Playgirl magazine under the 1585 01:17:16,320 --> 01:17:19,360 Speaker 45: name of my Concho A full spread? 1586 01:17:20,960 --> 01:17:22,639 Speaker 2: Is that a movie reference? I don't get. 1587 01:17:24,439 --> 01:17:24,679 Speaker 7: So. 1588 01:17:25,040 --> 01:17:26,280 Speaker 15: In the last ten. 1589 01:17:27,600 --> 01:17:33,719 Speaker 44: Mini Buy games, as in post Thursday Night Football, apparently 1590 01:17:33,760 --> 01:17:36,040 Speaker 44: the Bengals are zero. 1591 01:17:36,280 --> 01:17:37,719 Speaker 14: Nine and one. 1592 01:17:38,000 --> 01:17:44,639 Speaker 44: Really correct, so hopefully we will beat the Jets on Sunday. 1593 01:17:45,000 --> 01:17:46,840 Speaker 44: Who days. 1594 01:17:47,040 --> 01:17:48,440 Speaker 2: That's a crazy statistic. 1595 01:17:48,520 --> 01:17:50,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I got it right here.

The Bengals are six and four on 1598 01:17:56,160 --> 01:18:00,719 Speaker 3: Thursdays over the last ten seasons, but they have lost 1599 01:18:01,040 --> 01:18:05,880 Speaker 3: nine straight after the mini by dating back to twenty fifteen.

The way I look 1682 01:21:59,360 --> 01:22:03,040 Speaker 31: at it is Reds fans want the Dodgers to lose 1683 01:22:04,080 --> 01:22:07,400 Speaker 31: because so far the Reds are still the last National 1684 01:22:07,439 --> 01:22:10,800 Speaker 31: League team to go back to back World Series champions. 1685 01:22:11,640 --> 01:22:11,880 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1686 01:22:11,920 --> 01:22:14,639 Speaker 2: I get that. It's like, you know, the Dolphins rooting 1687 01:22:14,640 --> 01:22:16,519 Speaker 2: for a team to lose and not go undefeated. But 1688 01:22:16,560 --> 01:22:18,920 Speaker 2: at the same time, Austin, you could also hang a 1689 01:22:18,920 --> 01:22:20,800 Speaker 2: banner that the Reds lost to the World Series champs 1690 01:22:20,800 --> 01:22:24,880 Speaker 2: in the playoffs. Yeah, and that is a bannerable thing. 1691 01:22:26,240 --> 01:22:28,639 Speaker 2: I disagree with that. I don't care about that at all. Banners. 1692 01:22:29,600 --> 01:22:32,280 Speaker 3: No, that idea that they lost to the World Champs, 1693 01:22:33,080 --> 01:22:35,200 Speaker 3: I don't care about. I would rather I agree with 1694 01:22:35,280 --> 01:22:38,400 Speaker 3: Marcus hold that, you know, last team to go back 1695 01:22:38,439 --> 01:22:40,920 Speaker 3: to back, so you're holding on to the past. 1696 01:22:41,439 --> 01:22:47,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, man, Sorry, we knew what you were saying. 1697 01:22:48,360 --> 01:22:49,519 Speaker 5: Well, welcome back, Tony. 1698 01:22:49,680 --> 01:22:51,280 Speaker 24: Thank you to see that you're back on the. 1699 01:22:51,320 --> 01:22:53,080 Speaker 2: Radio and we're here. 1700 01:22:53,520 --> 01:22:56,360 Speaker 49: I know if I was going to continue listening or not, 1701 01:22:56,840 --> 01:22:59,320 Speaker 49: but and I saw Austin was going to be the 1702 01:22:59,320 --> 01:23:01,920 Speaker 49: permanent person, and I was like, man, I am gonna 1703 01:23:01,920 --> 01:23:05,280 Speaker 49: continue to tune in because I do dig him, but 1704 01:23:05,560 --> 01:23:08,320 Speaker 49: they did him wrong.

This is actually a good thing because 1888 01:31:56,240 --> 01:31:59,280 Speaker 3: Cedric Johnson, outside of Trey Hendrickson, was probably their best 1889 01:31:59,280 --> 01:32:01,320 Speaker 3: pass rusher the last five or six games.

But there's 1940 01:35:04,360 --> 01:35:06,960 Speaker 4: some way and something that happened is freshman year where 1941 01:35:06,960 --> 01:35:09,519 Speaker 4: he could get another extra year of eligibility, and we 1942 01:35:09,600 --> 01:35:12,679 Speaker 4: asked him about it, because you don't know for sure 1943 01:35:12,720 --> 01:35:14,360 Speaker 4: if a kid can get nexture year, if he's going 1944 01:35:14,439 --> 01:35:16,479 Speaker 4: to want to come back, especially when he's been here 1945 01:35:16,479 --> 01:35:19,679 Speaker 4: for six years or been in college for six years 1946 01:35:19,840 --> 01:35:22,800 Speaker 4: and he goes, Yeah, college basketball is the best thing 1947 01:35:22,840 --> 01:35:25,800 Speaker 4: in the world. I would absolutely take advantage of a 1948 01:35:25,840 --> 01:35:29,759 Speaker 4: seventh year. So other than that, nothing's huge. Some interesting 1949 01:35:29,880 --> 01:35:34,439 Speaker 4: role changes about continuations with and one pulls is going 1950 01:35:34,479 --> 01:35:37,320 Speaker 4: to look more like the NBA, and then the coaches 1951 01:35:37,400 --> 01:35:40,080 Speaker 4: challenges that are going to be implemented this season. Wes 1952 01:35:40,200 --> 01:35:44,400 Speaker 4: Miller said he likes that they're trying to modernize and 1953 01:35:44,479 --> 01:35:48,000 Speaker 4: trying to kind of change some stuff, but he doesn't 1954 01:35:48,080 --> 01:35:50,759 Speaker 4: like how it's going to work, especially with the challenges. 1955 01:35:51,320 --> 01:35:53,840 Speaker 4: So a lot of stuff going on, a lot of 1956 01:35:53,840 --> 01:35:56,880 Speaker 4: stuff we can hit on, but still got some stuff 1957 01:35:56,880 --> 01:35:57,240 Speaker 4: to cover. 1958 01:35:57,479 --> 01:36:02,160 Speaker 2: So Kig and the injury to Jalen Haynes big sline, 1959 01:36:03,120 --> 01:36:06,439 Speaker 2: what was the role in your opinion of Haines going 1960 01:36:06,479 --> 01:36:08,320 Speaker 2: to be on this team and subsequently, how big of 1961 01:36:08,360 --> 01:36:10,200 Speaker 2: a loss is this for the Bearcats. I know there's 1962 01:36:10,240 --> 01:36:12,760 Speaker 2: no timetable on his injury, but how big of a 1963 01:36:12,800 --> 01:36:13,320 Speaker 2: loss is this? 1964 01:36:15,200 --> 01:36:19,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a pretty big loss. I think in terms 1965 01:36:19,920 --> 01:36:22,280 Speaker 4: of playing through the post, he was going to be 1966 01:36:23,000 --> 01:36:27,200 Speaker 4: one A, maybe one B with Mustapha cham But when 1967 01:36:27,200 --> 01:36:30,040 Speaker 4: you just think about the role that he would have 1968 01:36:30,120 --> 01:36:33,880 Speaker 4: played in the offense and kind of just the big 1969 01:36:34,040 --> 01:36:36,160 Speaker 4: back to the basket guy who has kind of the 1970 01:36:36,240 --> 01:36:40,439 Speaker 4: skyhook move but back people down. It's something that you 1971 01:36:40,560 --> 01:36:44,559 Speaker 4: see hasn't had since maybe Gary Clark in twenty nineteen, 1972 01:36:45,560 --> 01:36:48,439 Speaker 4: and it's something that a lot of coaches or a 1973 01:36:48,479 --> 01:36:51,240 Speaker 4: lot of fans has missed and they've just been asking 1974 01:36:51,400 --> 01:36:53,360 Speaker 4: for someone that they could just throw the ball down 1975 01:36:53,400 --> 01:36:56,960 Speaker 4: to in the post and get a bucket. The good 1976 01:36:57,000 --> 01:36:59,320 Speaker 4: thing is is that I feel Wes Miller kind of 1977 01:37:00,240 --> 01:37:03,960 Speaker 4: overcompensated a little bit in that area. He also brought 1978 01:37:04,000 --> 01:37:07,519 Speaker 4: in Mustafa cham who can do that. Baba Miller showed 1979 01:37:07,520 --> 01:37:10,320 Speaker 4: that he could do it against Michigan, so he added 1980 01:37:10,320 --> 01:37:12,960 Speaker 4: a ton of really really good depth. It's a testament 1981 01:37:13,000 --> 01:37:15,960 Speaker 4: to how good of a transfer portal class they had that. 1982 01:37:16,080 --> 01:37:18,680 Speaker 4: You know, you lose a big player, potential starter on 1983 01:37:18,760 --> 01:37:23,320 Speaker 4: Jalen Haynes and it's not exactly dooom or bloom. The 1984 01:37:23,400 --> 01:37:26,200 Speaker 4: outlook for the season is a little down from where 1985 01:37:26,240 --> 01:37:30,120 Speaker 4: it was before the injury, just because we all know 1986 01:37:30,280 --> 01:37:32,960 Speaker 4: how tough these big twelve schedules can get, especially when 1987 01:37:32,960 --> 01:37:38,280 Speaker 4: you get into late February. But I think just kind 1988 01:37:38,280 --> 01:37:41,240 Speaker 4: of pivoting to Musapha Chan or Maba Miller is going 1989 01:37:41,320 --> 01:37:42,080 Speaker 4: to be the best thing. 1990 01:37:43,600 --> 01:37:48,000 Speaker 2: Last Friday, we saw the Bearcats continued dominance over the 1991 01:37:48,000 --> 01:37:51,040 Speaker 2: Big Ten and exhibition games continue. Last year was Ohio State, 1992 01:37:51,080 --> 01:37:54,640 Speaker 2: this year it was Michigan. I overreacted last year to 1993 01:37:54,720 --> 01:37:58,160 Speaker 2: how they looked against Ohio State in the exhibition. Did 1994 01:37:58,200 --> 01:38:03,000 Speaker 2: you see things on Friday against Michigan that give you 1995 01:38:03,080 --> 01:38:06,120 Speaker 2: reason for more optimism on how this team is constructed 1996 01:38:06,120 --> 01:38:07,599 Speaker 2: and how they play off of each other. 1997 01:38:09,520 --> 01:38:12,200 Speaker 4: I think the biggest thing you can look at, regardless 1998 01:38:12,200 --> 01:38:16,559 Speaker 4: of exhibition is is Shaun of Bios because when you 1999 01:38:16,640 --> 01:38:19,599 Speaker 4: have that kid coming from the overtime of league circuit, 2000 01:38:19,880 --> 01:38:22,840 Speaker 4: which I got to play it. I got to watch 2001 01:38:22,880 --> 01:38:25,320 Speaker 4: it in Atlanta last year when they played Georgia Tech, 2002 01:38:25,720 --> 01:38:29,040 Speaker 4: and it's a different brand of high school basketball. It's 2003 01:38:29,080 --> 01:38:32,479 Speaker 4: kind of like the NBA. They're not playing extremely tough defense. 2004 01:38:32,560 --> 01:38:35,240 Speaker 4: It's kind of just the best offensive players were shying. 2005 01:38:35,240 --> 01:38:38,720 Speaker 4: He was scoring forty points like night in and night out, 2006 01:38:38,760 --> 01:38:41,479 Speaker 4: and you have questions. You know this kid is skilled, 2007 01:38:41,520 --> 01:38:44,120 Speaker 4: you know that he can compete at the OTE level, 2008 01:38:44,160 --> 01:38:47,200 Speaker 4: but how is it going to translate when this offensive 2009 01:38:47,200 --> 01:38:49,360 Speaker 4: firepower is going up against some of the best talent 2010 01:38:49,400 --> 01:38:53,200 Speaker 4: in the country and him scoring fifteen points, him staying 2011 01:38:53,240 --> 01:38:56,760 Speaker 4: true to his game, hitting the step back freeze, kind 2012 01:38:56,800 --> 01:38:59,680 Speaker 4: of going in isolation and getting a bucket. That's what 2013 01:38:59,720 --> 01:39:02,600 Speaker 4: fans can be excited about, and they can say, Okay, 2014 01:39:02,760 --> 01:39:05,240 Speaker 4: this kid is not a bust. He's going to be 2015 01:39:05,320 --> 01:39:07,200 Speaker 4: good and he's going to be someone you see can 2016 01:39:07,240 --> 01:39:10,920 Speaker 4: rely on the rest of it, I'm not really sure 2017 01:39:10,960 --> 01:39:12,840 Speaker 4: how much you can really take from it. I think 2018 01:39:12,920 --> 01:39:15,679 Speaker 4: Kirk risa played how he's going to play the entire 2019 01:39:15,720 --> 01:39:17,640 Speaker 4: season in terms of Dyles Bress if he was in 2020 01:39:17,680 --> 01:39:21,400 Speaker 4: three point shooting. Since your Harris getting five steals, I 2021 01:39:21,439 --> 01:39:24,960 Speaker 4: don't expect five steals every game, but I feel like 2022 01:39:25,000 --> 01:39:28,760 Speaker 4: you got a little bit of what each player was 2023 01:39:28,800 --> 01:39:31,960 Speaker 4: brought in to do, whether on the defensive side of 2024 01:39:31,960 --> 01:39:34,000 Speaker 4: the ball or the offensive side of the ball. And 2025 01:39:34,080 --> 01:39:36,040 Speaker 4: you know, a lot of fans can get their hopes up, 2026 01:39:36,040 --> 01:39:38,840 Speaker 4: and I would completely understand it, but we got to 2027 01:39:38,880 --> 01:39:42,080 Speaker 4: remember where this team was after they beat Georgia Tech 2028 01:39:42,120 --> 01:39:44,519 Speaker 4: by like thirty points last year in the regular season, 2029 01:39:45,000 --> 01:39:47,479 Speaker 4: and you're thinking this is the top ten team. They're 2030 01:39:47,520 --> 01:39:49,360 Speaker 4: going to be top three team in the Big Twelve, 2031 01:39:49,760 --> 01:39:51,360 Speaker 4: and they're going to be a four seed in the 2032 01:39:51,439 --> 01:39:54,960 Speaker 4: NCAA Tournament, and then the Big Twelve schedule starts and 2033 01:39:55,080 --> 01:39:58,200 Speaker 4: it all just goes downhill. So you really have to 2034 01:39:58,240 --> 01:40:01,840 Speaker 4: look at it as two separate the non conference first, 2035 01:40:01,880 --> 01:40:04,240 Speaker 4: the conference season. When they start in the Big twelfth 2036 01:40:04,240 --> 01:40:06,360 Speaker 4: season and they rattle off three to four wins in 2037 01:40:06,400 --> 01:40:08,040 Speaker 4: a row, that's when you can kind of get your 2038 01:40:08,040 --> 01:40:09,920 Speaker 4: hopes up and say, Okay, we've got a pretty good 2039 01:40:09,960 --> 01:40:10,879 Speaker 4: team on our hands. 2040 01:40:11,439 --> 01:40:13,919 Speaker 2: Schedule coming up Friday, they're going to be at Arkansas 2041 01:40:14,040 --> 01:40:17,760 Speaker 2: taking on John Calipari's bunch. The regular season starts on 2042 01:40:17,800 --> 01:40:20,080 Speaker 2: November third, and it's a quick build up because on 2043 01:40:20,120 --> 01:40:22,559 Speaker 2: the eleventh of November you got to play Dayton. On 2044 01:40:22,600 --> 01:40:24,960 Speaker 2: the twenty first, you got to rank take on eleventh 2045 01:40:25,000 --> 01:40:28,320 Speaker 2: ranked Louisville. So it does pick up quickly. Let's say, 2046 01:40:28,320 --> 01:40:31,240 Speaker 2: between now and the Dayton game, what's the biggest thing 2047 01:40:31,240 --> 01:40:32,360 Speaker 2: that needs to be answered for you? 2048 01:40:34,720 --> 01:40:38,040 Speaker 4: How we already talked about it with Dyon Haynes. How 2049 01:40:38,320 --> 01:40:41,840 Speaker 4: is the inside offense working and kind of adjusting to 2050 01:40:41,920 --> 01:40:45,559 Speaker 4: not having Haynes. What does Baba Miller look like because 2051 01:40:45,840 --> 01:40:48,559 Speaker 4: he was kind of brought in as that point forward 2052 01:40:48,680 --> 01:40:52,280 Speaker 4: type guy who can dribble. He's really good offensively, he 2053 01:40:52,320 --> 01:40:54,439 Speaker 4: can shoot the three, he can shoot mid ranges. But 2054 01:40:54,560 --> 01:40:57,719 Speaker 4: we saw him against Michigan and he was really really 2055 01:40:57,720 --> 01:41:00,519 Speaker 4: good on the defensive and offensive boards. He was good 2056 01:41:00,560 --> 01:41:02,719 Speaker 4: down low. The biggest thing I'm going to be looking 2057 01:41:02,760 --> 01:41:06,400 Speaker 4: for is how good they are inside, because getting those 2058 01:41:06,439 --> 01:41:09,519 Speaker 4: points and being efficient down there will just feed so 2059 01:41:09,680 --> 01:41:12,040 Speaker 4: much more for the offense. And then you also have 2060 01:41:12,120 --> 01:41:15,280 Speaker 4: to look at how are they defensively because you have 2061 01:41:15,439 --> 01:41:18,920 Speaker 4: the really talented defender and Syncir Harris who can get 2062 01:41:18,960 --> 01:41:21,880 Speaker 4: those steals, and Dada Thomas is good defensively, but how 2063 01:41:21,880 --> 01:41:23,920 Speaker 4: are you playing as an unit? Because if you give 2064 01:41:24,000 --> 01:41:26,519 Speaker 4: up ninety eight points a game, it's probably not going 2065 01:41:26,600 --> 01:41:28,960 Speaker 4: to be a very preseason And I know west Miller 2066 01:41:29,040 --> 01:41:31,639 Speaker 4: was not happy at all about how they played defensively, 2067 01:41:31,720 --> 01:41:34,920 Speaker 4: especially on some of their closeouts. So just how they're 2068 01:41:35,000 --> 01:41:38,600 Speaker 4: gelling defensively, how they're switching, and how their chemistry is 2069 01:41:38,600 --> 01:41:40,000 Speaker 4: is going to be one of the bigger things that 2070 01:41:40,040 --> 01:41:40,679 Speaker 4: I'm looking for. 2071 01:41:41,080 --> 01:41:45,040 Speaker 2: Gisel James is not with the team, day Da Thomas is. 2072 01:41:45,040 --> 01:41:48,679 Speaker 2: Is their depth there at point guard that you believe 2073 01:41:48,680 --> 01:41:50,280 Speaker 2: they're going to be okay at that position or is 2074 01:41:50,280 --> 01:41:51,599 Speaker 2: that still need to play itself out. 2075 01:41:53,280 --> 01:41:56,479 Speaker 4: I think it needs to play itself out, because right now, 2076 01:41:56,479 --> 01:41:58,519 Speaker 4: based off the Michigan game, it's looking like the point 2077 01:41:58,520 --> 01:42:01,559 Speaker 4: guards are going to be kerk Pres and Keishan Tillery, 2078 01:42:02,000 --> 01:42:03,800 Speaker 4: and David Thomas is going to see a lot of 2079 01:42:03,840 --> 01:42:05,840 Speaker 4: action at the two, and since your Harris is going 2080 01:42:05,880 --> 01:42:07,599 Speaker 4: to see a lot of action at the two, Shaun 2081 01:42:07,680 --> 01:42:11,839 Speaker 4: of Bible play the two in the three. So looking 2082 01:42:12,120 --> 01:42:16,080 Speaker 4: at Keischan Tillery and how he kind of facilitates himself 2083 01:42:16,120 --> 01:42:18,599 Speaker 4: as another big storyline that you need to watch for 2084 01:42:18,720 --> 01:42:21,120 Speaker 4: the next or for the first two weeks of the season. 2085 01:42:21,400 --> 01:42:23,320 Speaker 4: He doesn't have to go out and average twelve points 2086 01:42:23,320 --> 01:42:26,800 Speaker 4: a game and eight assists, but kind of just facilitating 2087 01:42:26,840 --> 01:42:29,880 Speaker 4: the offense getting those four or five assists a game 2088 01:42:30,479 --> 01:42:34,200 Speaker 4: and then not turning the ball over a ton is 2089 01:42:34,240 --> 01:42:36,920 Speaker 4: what's really going to help, you, see, because if there's 2090 01:42:36,960 --> 01:42:40,160 Speaker 4: a steep drop off from Crease to the Tillery, it's 2091 01:42:40,160 --> 01:42:42,360 Speaker 4: going to hurt the momentum and everything's just going to 2092 01:42:42,439 --> 01:42:44,840 Speaker 4: go downhill. But if he can just take care of 2093 01:42:44,880 --> 01:42:48,479 Speaker 4: the ball, play within himself, don't try to do something 2094 01:42:48,479 --> 01:42:51,360 Speaker 4: that he's not asked to do. I think that the 2095 01:42:51,400 --> 01:42:53,519 Speaker 4: offense should be able to run pretty well, because that's 2096 01:42:53,520 --> 01:42:55,120 Speaker 4: what he was recruited for, was would be a really 2097 01:42:55,120 --> 01:42:58,320 Speaker 4: good offensive player and facility at the offense. 2098 01:42:58,720 --> 01:43:02,479 Speaker 2: Keegan. On the other side of this football happening this weekend, 2099 01:43:02,560 --> 01:43:05,920 Speaker 2: Baylor coming into town, the top passing offense in the country. 2100 01:43:07,200 --> 01:43:09,320 Speaker 2: Are you buying into what you're seeing from the Cincinnati 2101 01:43:09,360 --> 01:43:10,240 Speaker 2: bearcatch right now? 2102 01:43:12,080 --> 01:43:15,800 Speaker 4: I am. And I wrote a story after they beat 2103 01:43:15,800 --> 01:43:19,240 Speaker 4: Bullying Green only my only fourteen points, I think, and 2104 01:43:19,240 --> 01:43:23,360 Speaker 4: everyone is freaking out. I said, don't write these guys 2105 01:43:23,400 --> 01:43:26,280 Speaker 4: off yet, Like I know, this wasn't a pretty showing, 2106 01:43:27,320 --> 01:43:29,920 Speaker 4: but just don't write them off. And since that game, 2107 01:43:30,080 --> 01:43:33,720 Speaker 4: they're four and oh in six and one and or 2108 01:43:34,040 --> 01:43:36,400 Speaker 4: five and four and oh in the Big Twelve, and 2109 01:43:36,439 --> 01:43:40,160 Speaker 4: they're ranked number twenty one. And I just saw too 2110 01:43:40,280 --> 01:43:42,360 Speaker 4: much talent. I knew there was too much talent on 2111 01:43:42,400 --> 01:43:45,200 Speaker 4: the team for them to be disappointing. It's on both 2112 01:43:45,240 --> 01:43:49,040 Speaker 4: sides of the ball. I love the quarterback play, I 2113 01:43:49,080 --> 01:43:53,400 Speaker 4: love howls, stretching the ball downfield efficiently, while also not 2114 01:43:53,680 --> 01:43:56,719 Speaker 4: having that many turnover worthy plays and only one interception 2115 01:43:56,800 --> 01:43:59,600 Speaker 4: on the season. The running back tandem is kind of 2116 01:43:59,600 --> 01:44:02,240 Speaker 4: going back and forth, but who's performing better, which I 2117 01:44:02,240 --> 01:44:04,639 Speaker 4: think is a really big thing. And then the wide 2118 01:44:04,680 --> 01:44:08,000 Speaker 4: receiver corps is awesome. I mean, Jeff Caldwell, you know 2119 01:44:08,040 --> 01:44:12,320 Speaker 4: with Jennings, Cyrus Allen, Caleb Goody, Isaiah Johnson, Joe Royer, 2120 01:44:12,320 --> 01:44:16,240 Speaker 4: and you're legitimately sixt deep that pass catcher. I love 2121 01:44:16,280 --> 01:44:18,200 Speaker 4: how they're using Royer in the red zone. I love 2122 01:44:18,240 --> 01:44:20,920 Speaker 4: whether they're disguising him as a blocker initially and then 2123 01:44:20,920 --> 01:44:24,479 Speaker 4: he breaks out and gets those easy receptions. Everything is 2124 01:44:24,520 --> 01:44:27,680 Speaker 4: working really, really well. I'll be interested to see how 2125 01:44:27,680 --> 01:44:31,080 Speaker 4: the defense reacts because against Oklahoma State it was probably 2126 01:44:31,080 --> 01:44:33,599 Speaker 4: the worst defensive effort of the season and just how 2127 01:44:33,600 --> 01:44:36,040 Speaker 4: they tackled and how Oklahoma State was able to run 2128 01:44:36,320 --> 01:44:40,280 Speaker 4: basically wherever they wanted to. Baylor really really high powered offense. 2129 01:44:40,720 --> 01:44:43,719 Speaker 4: Can you get another interception to see a game late? 2130 01:44:44,600 --> 01:44:46,160 Speaker 4: Can you kind of shut down the run game for 2131 01:44:46,360 --> 01:44:50,120 Speaker 4: Storry Robinson in with some mistakes. There's a lot of questions, 2132 01:44:50,120 --> 01:44:52,920 Speaker 4: but I'm I'm confident that UC's probably going to win 2133 01:44:53,000 --> 01:44:55,599 Speaker 4: this week and then go into a huge game against 2134 01:44:55,680 --> 01:44:56,479 Speaker 4: Utah next week. 2135 01:44:57,120 --> 01:45:01,160 Speaker 2: Kegan Dante Corleone is not played a ton of snaps, 2136 01:45:01,400 --> 01:45:04,680 Speaker 2: and I feel like when he's not in the three 2137 01:45:04,800 --> 01:45:06,479 Speaker 2: three fives just not as effective. If you don't have 2138 01:45:06,520 --> 01:45:09,080 Speaker 2: a dominant nose. It's hard in the three three five 2139 01:45:09,080 --> 01:45:11,960 Speaker 2: because you're not requiring as many offensive linemen to block 2140 01:45:12,040 --> 01:45:15,120 Speaker 2: Dante Corleone and you're getting to the second level. Could 2141 01:45:15,160 --> 01:45:18,320 Speaker 2: we see a situation where you see some four down 2142 01:45:18,360 --> 01:45:20,479 Speaker 2: fronts when Dante Corleone is an in do you do 2143 01:45:20,520 --> 01:45:22,679 Speaker 2: you think that they have to make an adjustment based 2144 01:45:22,680 --> 01:45:24,120 Speaker 2: on what you've seen other teams. 2145 01:45:23,880 --> 01:45:28,880 Speaker 4: Do not really, because they're being pretty open with the 2146 01:45:28,920 --> 01:45:31,439 Speaker 4: fact that they just play a loose defense uping to 2147 01:45:31,520 --> 01:45:34,800 Speaker 4: the red zone. So they're kind of saying, hey, from 2148 01:45:34,880 --> 01:45:37,240 Speaker 4: the twenty to the twenty, offenses are going to be 2149 01:45:37,240 --> 01:45:39,639 Speaker 4: able to move the ball, But it's what happens within 2150 01:45:39,720 --> 01:45:43,400 Speaker 4: those twenty to the end zone that's what's important. So 2151 01:45:43,439 --> 01:45:45,920 Speaker 4: that's why you're seeing Dante really not play a lot 2152 01:45:45,920 --> 01:45:48,160 Speaker 4: of the drive until they get to the red zone 2153 01:45:48,160 --> 01:45:49,639 Speaker 4: and then he comes in and maybe it's a third 2154 01:45:49,640 --> 01:45:51,800 Speaker 4: and seven and he needs to reach some havoc on 2155 01:45:51,840 --> 01:45:54,720 Speaker 4: a pass play and then he comes in. I think 2156 01:45:54,800 --> 01:45:57,840 Speaker 4: right now they're putting him in a position to kind 2157 01:45:57,840 --> 01:46:01,160 Speaker 4: of be as fresh as possible. I don't really disagree 2158 01:46:01,200 --> 01:46:03,760 Speaker 4: with that, especially if you're just going to allow so 2159 01:46:03,800 --> 01:46:07,240 Speaker 4: many yards on the rest of the drive. So I 2160 01:46:08,080 --> 01:46:10,840 Speaker 4: don't know if he's one hundred percent healthy after the 2161 01:46:10,880 --> 01:46:14,880 Speaker 4: ankle thing. He could be only about ninety percent. And 2162 01:46:14,880 --> 01:46:18,080 Speaker 4: you can't really forty five snaps a game. But I 2163 01:46:18,120 --> 01:46:22,120 Speaker 4: think what's what they're doing right now is at least 2164 01:46:22,439 --> 01:46:25,639 Speaker 4: working as then they're not losing games because of it. 2165 01:46:26,760 --> 01:46:29,200 Speaker 4: But it'll be interesting to see what they do against 2166 01:46:29,240 --> 01:46:32,360 Speaker 4: Baylor and a good quarterback and a really talented offense. 2167 01:46:33,240 --> 01:46:35,639 Speaker 4: But I don't think that playing him forty to forty 2168 01:46:35,680 --> 01:46:39,240 Speaker 4: five snaps a game is a solution. And I also 2169 01:46:39,240 --> 01:46:42,120 Speaker 4: don't think that the four man front kind of deviating 2170 01:46:42,560 --> 01:46:45,719 Speaker 4: with the identity of your defense is a solution either. 2171 01:46:46,280 --> 01:46:48,160 Speaker 2: One more thing on the defense, is there any concern 2172 01:46:48,200 --> 01:46:50,760 Speaker 2: to you. We've seen this defense not only susceptible to 2173 01:46:50,880 --> 01:46:53,760 Speaker 2: giving up yards, they also at times just give up 2174 01:46:54,320 --> 01:46:57,880 Speaker 2: time consuming drives. A fifteen play drive, a nineteen play drive, 2175 01:46:58,000 --> 01:47:00,479 Speaker 2: Drives that are taking eight or nine minutes, and while 2176 01:47:00,479 --> 01:47:03,800 Speaker 2: the offense is operating at the way they are, or 2177 01:47:03,800 --> 01:47:06,559 Speaker 2: they're operating with a lead it's different. Do you worry 2178 01:47:06,600 --> 01:47:10,280 Speaker 2: about that strategy if a team takes a lead against 2179 01:47:10,280 --> 01:47:12,880 Speaker 2: the Bearcats and all of a sudden you're limiting possessions 2180 01:47:12,880 --> 01:47:13,519 Speaker 2: for the offense. 2181 01:47:15,120 --> 01:47:15,320 Speaker 5: Yeah. 2182 01:47:15,360 --> 01:47:18,200 Speaker 4: Absolutely. I think it shrinks your margin of air a 2183 01:47:18,240 --> 01:47:22,000 Speaker 4: little bit because a Sadderfield said, they're a rhythm offense, 2184 01:47:22,240 --> 01:47:24,879 Speaker 4: and if you're not in a rhythm, they might struggle 2185 01:47:24,920 --> 01:47:28,000 Speaker 4: a little bit. And we saw it against Oklahoma State 2186 01:47:28,120 --> 01:47:30,960 Speaker 4: that the start of the third quarter was rough until 2187 01:47:30,960 --> 01:47:33,240 Speaker 4: Serzi makes maybe the best part of the season on 2188 01:47:33,280 --> 01:47:35,679 Speaker 4: that third and sixteen for a first time that Jeff 2189 01:47:35,720 --> 01:47:37,680 Speaker 4: culdeo and then everything's rolling and they getting the end 2190 01:47:37,720 --> 01:47:39,479 Speaker 4: zone and then the pick six happens when the game 2191 01:47:39,560 --> 01:47:42,080 Speaker 4: is pretty much over. So when you're playing a good 2192 01:47:42,080 --> 01:47:46,560 Speaker 4: team like Baylor, like Utah, DYU, TCU like they have 2193 01:47:46,680 --> 01:47:49,760 Speaker 4: coming down the stretch, that's something that you're really going 2194 01:47:49,840 --> 01:47:53,800 Speaker 4: to have to look out for. And I think time 2195 01:47:53,840 --> 01:47:56,840 Speaker 4: of possession it doesn't matter to some people as much 2196 01:47:56,840 --> 01:48:00,200 Speaker 4: as others, as long as your offense is coming, but 2197 01:48:00,360 --> 01:48:04,080 Speaker 4: it's kind of it's kind of taken away from itself 2198 01:48:04,120 --> 01:48:08,439 Speaker 4: when you have that rhythm offense. So I think the 2199 01:48:08,920 --> 01:48:12,240 Speaker 4: third down calls are interesting to me. On defense, maybe 2200 01:48:12,240 --> 01:48:14,120 Speaker 4: they try something else, maybe they try to get up 2201 01:48:14,120 --> 01:48:16,800 Speaker 4: to the quarterbacks a little bit more and just force 2202 01:48:16,840 --> 01:48:20,280 Speaker 4: an incompletion or throwaway. But if you can be better 2203 01:48:20,320 --> 01:48:23,120 Speaker 4: on third down and get off the field, and then 2204 01:48:23,120 --> 01:48:25,519 Speaker 4: the offense can get going. That's why I feel that's 2205 01:48:25,520 --> 01:48:28,799 Speaker 4: part you're seeing. You see take those very quick fourteen 2206 01:48:29,000 --> 01:48:31,960 Speaker 4: seventeen to twenty one point leads and games, and then 2207 01:48:32,000 --> 01:48:34,400 Speaker 4: you can kind of maybe be a lesson to be 2208 01:48:34,479 --> 01:48:37,120 Speaker 4: less aggressive in the second half and then play just 2209 01:48:37,160 --> 01:48:40,120 Speaker 4: good enough to win, like you've seen against Iowa State 2210 01:48:40,240 --> 01:48:41,800 Speaker 4: and other teams. 2211 01:48:42,240 --> 01:48:44,560 Speaker 2: Keegan. Lastly, we know what the offense has been and 2212 01:48:44,760 --> 01:48:47,439 Speaker 2: Scott Soudderfield has a huge hand in that, and swersby 2213 01:48:47,960 --> 01:48:51,120 Speaker 2: the offensive line's been great. You mentioned Royer, the dual 2214 01:48:51,160 --> 01:48:55,800 Speaker 2: threat running back, the weapons on the outside. How important 2215 01:48:55,920 --> 01:48:58,080 Speaker 2: is it for you what we've seen from the special 2216 01:48:58,080 --> 01:49:01,000 Speaker 2: teams unit because a year ago it was a disaster. 2217 01:49:01,320 --> 01:49:05,519 Speaker 2: A year ago special teams limited this team. The mistakes 2218 01:49:05,520 --> 01:49:08,799 Speaker 2: before the halff or a special teams blunder that completely 2219 01:49:08,880 --> 01:49:11,840 Speaker 2: changed the momentum. We've talked defense, we talk a ton 2220 01:49:11,840 --> 01:49:15,120 Speaker 2: of offense. How impressive is special team's been with what 2221 01:49:15,160 --> 01:49:15,960 Speaker 2: they've been able to do. 2222 01:49:18,120 --> 01:49:21,400 Speaker 4: I think it's to your point. I think special teams 2223 01:49:21,439 --> 01:49:23,720 Speaker 4: lost in games last year. I mean, go back to 2224 01:49:23,760 --> 01:49:26,240 Speaker 4: the Iowa State game on the last four games of 2225 01:49:26,240 --> 01:49:29,120 Speaker 4: the season. That's why a lot of people were pounding 2226 01:49:29,120 --> 01:49:31,479 Speaker 4: the drums for Max Fletcher to go out in punt 2227 01:49:31,520 --> 01:49:35,000 Speaker 4: because it was pretty apparent that Mason after that tackle 2228 01:49:35,040 --> 01:49:37,560 Speaker 4: against West Virginia, he had something going on with his 2229 01:49:37,720 --> 01:49:40,120 Speaker 4: ribs and it didn't seem like he was one hundred percent. 2230 01:49:40,200 --> 01:49:44,240 Speaker 4: If punts dropped way down on yards for average or 2231 01:49:44,240 --> 01:49:47,559 Speaker 4: average yards per punt, and you're just giving the other 2232 01:49:47,640 --> 01:49:52,080 Speaker 4: team great field position on basically every drive, it puts 2233 01:49:52,080 --> 01:49:54,599 Speaker 4: so much pressure on your defense and then it puts 2234 01:49:54,640 --> 01:49:57,640 Speaker 4: so much pressure on your offense. And I think everything's 2235 01:49:57,720 --> 01:50:00,840 Speaker 4: just kind of working together this year and that if 2236 01:50:00,840 --> 01:50:03,360 Speaker 4: there's some pressure on the offense, they have the Jimmies 2237 01:50:03,360 --> 01:50:05,640 Speaker 4: and Joe's to go and get a first down and 2238 01:50:05,680 --> 01:50:07,719 Speaker 4: get the offense rolling and make a big play. 2239 01:50:08,160 --> 01:50:10,479 Speaker 5: But what Luke Paskal has done has. 2240 01:50:10,360 --> 01:50:12,640 Speaker 4: Been a revelation, because I mean, I'm not going to 2241 01:50:12,680 --> 01:50:15,680 Speaker 4: sit here and say that the special teams is like elite. 2242 01:50:16,120 --> 01:50:17,680 Speaker 4: I mean, they have a kicker who hasn't missed the 2243 01:50:17,680 --> 01:50:19,640 Speaker 4: field goal and they have a punter who booms it. 2244 01:50:21,040 --> 01:50:24,599 Speaker 4: They still haven't returned anything for touchdowns or you know 2245 01:50:24,680 --> 01:50:26,800 Speaker 4: that kind of part of it, the blocking. There's still 2246 01:50:27,040 --> 01:50:29,400 Speaker 4: penalties and stuff like that. But if you can have 2247 01:50:29,439 --> 01:50:33,000 Speaker 4: an average special teams, it helps your team so much 2248 01:50:33,040 --> 01:50:35,559 Speaker 4: compared to having a bad special team. I mean, they 2249 01:50:35,560 --> 01:50:37,479 Speaker 4: could have won two or three more games last year 2250 01:50:37,479 --> 01:50:39,760 Speaker 4: if you even had an average special teams And you're 2251 01:50:39,760 --> 01:50:41,760 Speaker 4: starting to see the difference that that can make on 2252 01:50:41,800 --> 01:50:42,160 Speaker 4: the team. 2253 01:50:43,280 --> 01:50:46,080 Speaker 2: Keegan, you're the best man, Kegen nickoson Bearcatgeneral dot Com. 2254 01:50:46,080 --> 01:50:49,000 Speaker 2: What are you working on and what's the easiest way 2255 01:50:49,040 --> 01:50:50,719 Speaker 2: for folks to follow along with your work? 2256 01:50:52,280 --> 01:50:54,479 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm going to have a big twelve media day's 2257 01:50:54,560 --> 01:50:57,800 Speaker 4: notebook up here in the next couple hours.

And we mentioned 2286 01:52:31,840 --> 01:52:36,800 Speaker 2: this yesterday. That is right after two days after the 2287 01:52:36,800 --> 01:52:40,040 Speaker 2: Bengals play the Bears at home. If you beat the Jets, 2288 01:52:40,080 --> 01:52:41,679 Speaker 2: beat the Bears, you'd be five and four at that point. 2289 01:52:41,680 --> 01:52:44,439 Speaker 2: There's the trade deadline. Made the conversation yesterday that you 2290 01:52:44,479 --> 01:52:47,880 Speaker 2: don't have to wait until then to be active. But 2291 01:52:47,960 --> 01:52:50,360 Speaker 2: on this list Austin they put top the top twenty 2292 01:52:50,439 --> 01:52:53,160 Speaker 2: five players who could be on the move. And out 2293 01:52:53,200 --> 01:52:58,000 Speaker 2: of the twenty five players listed, three Cincinnati Bengals made 2294 01:52:58,000 --> 01:53:03,080 Speaker 2: the list. Three Bengals that could be traded, Yes, number 2295 01:53:03,080 --> 01:53:07,880 Speaker 2: twenty on the list Cam Taylor Britt. They predict a 2296 01:53:07,960 --> 01:53:10,599 Speaker 2: twenty five percent chance that Cam Taylor Britt has traded. 2297 01:53:10,640 --> 01:53:14,760 Speaker 2: Team fits include the Colts, Commanders, and Eagles. Obviously this 2298 01:53:14,880 --> 01:53:16,960 Speaker 2: comes up because he was a healthy scratch against the 2299 01:53:17,000 --> 01:53:24,160 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh Steelers. Has shown flashes but has not been consistent. 2300 01:53:24,760 --> 01:53:26,640 Speaker 2: That is the term they use today. 2301 01:53:26,800 --> 01:53:30,200 Speaker 3: Those at Cam Taylor brit Those at Bengals practice today 2302 01:53:30,560 --> 01:53:33,120 Speaker 3: reporting that Cam Taylor Britt has spent a lot of 2303 01:53:33,120 --> 01:53:37,120 Speaker 3: time on special teams. Okay, so find a way He's 2304 01:53:37,120 --> 01:53:39,840 Speaker 3: in the doghouse like in the doghouse of being in 2305 01:53:39,880 --> 01:53:42,439 Speaker 3: the doghouse. Remember you're a healthy scratch. I mean that's 2306 01:53:42,560 --> 01:53:46,599 Speaker 3: your Maine Burton levels of doghouse. Yep uh, he's got 2307 01:53:46,600 --> 01:53:47,280 Speaker 3: a lot of work to do. 2308 01:53:47,680 --> 01:53:54,599 Speaker 2: Number eleven on this list and a sixty chance as 2309 01:53:54,640 --> 01:54:00,519 Speaker 2: they predict, of getting traded Logan Wilson. Now we've Austin 2310 01:54:00,560 --> 01:54:05,920 Speaker 2: the Bengals are going younger at linebacker. Would you be 2311 01:54:06,000 --> 01:54:09,280 Speaker 2: willing to move on from Logan Wilson? He has a 2312 01:54:09,280 --> 01:54:12,080 Speaker 2: base salary next year of six million, Like he's a 2313 01:54:12,080 --> 01:54:15,400 Speaker 2: three down guy. He has been phenomenal. I think for 2314 01:54:15,479 --> 01:54:19,080 Speaker 2: the Cincinnati Bengals. They list team fits as the Cowboys, 2315 01:54:19,120 --> 01:54:21,400 Speaker 2: forty nine, Ers, Bills, and Colts. Obviously the Colts are 2316 01:54:21,439 --> 01:54:23,120 Speaker 2: going to be on all these because of lu and Rumo. 2317 01:54:25,160 --> 01:54:28,080 Speaker 2: Would you be comfortable if this team was five and 2318 01:54:28,160 --> 01:54:29,759 Speaker 2: four and moved on from Logan Wilson. 2319 01:54:30,080 --> 01:54:33,880 Speaker 3: No, I wouldn't, and the reason for that being they 2320 01:54:33,880 --> 01:54:35,400 Speaker 3: don't have any depth at that position. 2321 01:54:35,480 --> 01:54:35,760 Speaker 5: Zero. 2322 01:54:36,120 --> 01:54:39,240 Speaker 3: Like I love Logan Wilson, and I can admit that 2323 01:54:39,680 --> 01:54:41,840 Speaker 3: maybe not the same player that he was a couple 2324 01:54:41,880 --> 01:54:43,880 Speaker 3: of years ago, and that injury he had last year 2325 01:54:44,840 --> 01:54:48,760 Speaker 3: is a lot more serious than people realized. And yeah, 2326 01:54:48,800 --> 01:54:51,600 Speaker 3: he's lost a bit of a step. Your other linebackers 2327 01:54:51,600 --> 01:54:56,480 Speaker 3: are Shaka Hayward and Orin Burkes, well outside of Demetrius 2328 01:54:56,560 --> 01:54:57,480 Speaker 3: Knight and Barrett Carter. 2329 01:54:57,560 --> 01:55:00,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, so in unless. 2330 01:55:00,320 --> 01:55:03,880 Speaker 3: It is an offer that you just cannot refuse whatsoever. 2331 01:55:04,680 --> 01:55:06,400 Speaker 3: You know, if somebody can give you a third round 2332 01:55:06,440 --> 01:55:08,960 Speaker 3: pick for him, then take it right. But if it's 2333 01:55:09,280 --> 01:55:11,040 Speaker 3: you know, more than that, I don't know that the 2334 01:55:11,120 --> 01:55:12,160 Speaker 3: risk is worth the reward. 2335 01:55:12,200 --> 01:55:12,720 Speaker 2: I don't think it is. 2336 01:55:12,760 --> 01:55:14,640 Speaker 3: It's like, if you look across teams in the NFL 2337 01:55:14,720 --> 01:55:17,920 Speaker 3: right now, one of the big issues is depth. Like 2338 01:55:18,560 --> 01:55:21,440 Speaker 3: it's not a sexy topic in the offseason, but it's 2339 01:55:21,480 --> 01:55:25,320 Speaker 3: incredibly important to talk about a team's depth. I don't 2340 01:55:25,360 --> 01:55:28,560 Speaker 3: think Buffalo has great depth. The Eagles are dealing with 2341 01:55:28,600 --> 01:55:32,120 Speaker 3: depth issues on their defensive line right now. Injuries happen 2342 01:55:32,200 --> 01:55:35,200 Speaker 3: across the NFL. In your depth and your development of 2343 01:55:35,360 --> 01:55:39,160 Speaker 3: said depth is what makes good football teams great. The 2344 01:55:39,160 --> 01:55:41,840 Speaker 3: Bengals don't have enough depth at that position to move 2345 01:55:41,880 --> 01:55:46,560 Speaker 3: on from Logan Wilson in my opinion. Lastly on this list, 2346 01:55:47,320 --> 01:55:49,080 Speaker 3: let me give you the top ten. Jermaine Johnson, edge 2347 01:55:49,120 --> 01:55:52,960 Speaker 3: rusher from New York, Okay Alante Taylor corner for the Saints, 2348 01:55:53,880 --> 01:55:55,840 Speaker 3: Jalen Phillips. You see this time of the year, teams 2349 01:55:55,840 --> 01:55:58,680 Speaker 3: that are underachieving are probably going to be moving on 2350 01:55:58,720 --> 01:56:01,560 Speaker 3: from players. Jalen Phillips is a net drusher for the Dolphins. 2351 01:56:01,600 --> 01:56:04,640 Speaker 3: Chris o'lave is on this list at wide receiver, Mark 2352 01:56:04,720 --> 01:56:07,400 Speaker 3: Andrews the tight end for the Baltimore Ravens. Number six, 2353 01:56:07,520 --> 01:56:12,720 Speaker 3: number five, Jacobe Myers, number four, Rick Woohlan corner for Seattle. 2354 01:56:13,320 --> 01:56:17,560 Speaker 3: Number three, Reese Hall of the New York Jets, a 2355 01:56:17,600 --> 01:56:19,640 Speaker 3: player that I am a little concerned about on Sunday, 2356 01:56:20,120 --> 01:56:27,640 Speaker 3: Number two Jalen Waddle, and number one Trey Hendrickson. Trey 2357 01:56:27,640 --> 01:56:29,960 Speaker 3: Hendrickson would be far and away the most attractive trade 2358 01:56:29,960 --> 01:56:32,680 Speaker 3: target if the Bengals entertained a deal. 2359 01:56:33,960 --> 01:56:36,560 Speaker 2: Now. As of right now, the Bengals don't have plans 2360 01:56:36,600 --> 01:56:40,280 Speaker 2: to trade Trey Hendrickson, but there would be teams lining 2361 01:56:40,360 --> 01:56:44,080 Speaker 2: up with interest for Trey Hendrickson. And this why Austin 2362 01:56:44,200 --> 01:56:46,720 Speaker 2: is I think the next two are important. If you're 2363 01:56:46,760 --> 01:56:50,520 Speaker 2: four and five or shoot three and six at the deadline, 2364 01:56:50,960 --> 01:56:53,680 Speaker 2: what's the point of holding on to Trey Hendrickson? Correct Now, 2365 01:56:53,680 --> 01:56:55,400 Speaker 2: if you're five and four no way you're giving up 2366 01:56:55,400 --> 01:56:59,840 Speaker 2: on Trey Hendrickson. But if you are under five hundreds 2367 01:57:00,040 --> 01:57:02,720 Speaker 2: where I'm at, If you're under five hundred the deadline, 2368 01:57:03,240 --> 01:57:05,280 Speaker 2: what is the benefit of holding on to Trey Hendrickson? 2369 01:57:05,440 --> 01:57:05,839 Speaker 4: Correct? 2370 01:57:06,880 --> 01:57:09,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean if you lose the next two and 2371 01:57:10,000 --> 01:57:13,280 Speaker 3: you go to that bye week at three and six, 2372 01:57:14,360 --> 01:57:17,880 Speaker 3: your season is basically over. Now you still have all 2373 01:57:17,920 --> 01:57:20,280 Speaker 3: those AFC North games ahead of you. I see that, 2374 01:57:20,840 --> 01:57:22,680 Speaker 3: but I think at the minimum it's going to take 2375 01:57:22,680 --> 01:57:25,360 Speaker 3: ten wins to get in, So you would have to 2376 01:57:25,360 --> 01:57:29,000 Speaker 3: go seven and one over those last eight games to 2377 01:57:29,000 --> 01:57:32,400 Speaker 3: get into the playoffs. Yeah, I don't see that happening yet. 2378 01:57:32,440 --> 01:57:35,560 Speaker 3: There to lose the next two, which means you have 2379 01:57:35,640 --> 01:57:40,360 Speaker 3: to shift almost immediately to how can we get this 2380 01:57:40,440 --> 01:57:43,080 Speaker 3: team ready for next year? So start evaluating, you start 2381 01:57:43,120 --> 01:57:45,760 Speaker 3: playing young players more than they already have been, and 2382 01:57:45,800 --> 01:57:48,120 Speaker 3: you start acquiring draft picks, and you would start by 2383 01:57:48,160 --> 01:57:52,000 Speaker 3: getting Trey Hendrickson off the books and get whatever return 2384 01:57:52,080 --> 01:57:52,760 Speaker 3: you can get for him. 2385 01:57:52,800 --> 01:57:54,960 Speaker 2: Would that change your thought on Logan Wilson two if 2386 01:57:54,960 --> 01:57:56,680 Speaker 2: they're four and five at the deadline. 2387 01:57:56,760 --> 01:57:59,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I mean it's all all of it is 2388 01:58:00,400 --> 01:58:03,160 Speaker 3: as we talked about yesterday with the aggressive or non aggressive. 2389 01:58:03,480 --> 01:58:06,920 Speaker 3: All of it's predicated on if you win games without 2390 01:58:06,920 --> 01:58:10,120 Speaker 3: a doubt. Yeah, I mean clear, I can't imagine Logan 2391 01:58:10,120 --> 01:58:12,920 Speaker 3: Wilson's a big part of the plan next year. I 2392 01:58:12,920 --> 01:58:14,600 Speaker 3: don't know that the Bengals are looking at next year 2393 01:58:14,600 --> 01:58:16,720 Speaker 3: thinking Trey is going to be here, right, I don't 2394 01:58:16,720 --> 01:58:19,200 Speaker 3: know that they're looking at next year thinking Cam Taylor 2395 01:58:19,200 --> 01:58:23,160 Speaker 3: BRIT's going to be here. So that's the reason those 2396 01:58:23,200 --> 01:58:26,520 Speaker 3: three guys are on that list. And for two out 2397 01:58:26,520 --> 01:58:28,960 Speaker 3: of the three, I'd remove camp Taylor Bridge just because 2398 01:58:29,000 --> 01:58:31,840 Speaker 3: of just the doghouse that he's in. But for two 2399 01:58:31,840 --> 01:58:34,280 Speaker 3: of those three, it really is predicated on whether or 2400 01:58:34,280 --> 01:58:35,200 Speaker 3: not they win games. 2401 01:58:35,200 --> 01:58:39,400 Speaker 2: Correct. Let's take a break. When we come back, we'll 2402 01:58:39,440 --> 01:58:42,520 Speaker 2: grab a phone callar too well, look at some other 2403 01:58:42,640 --> 01:58:45,520 Speaker 2: NFL news and we've got quick hits coming up as well. 2404 01:58:45,960 --> 01:58:48,720 Speaker 2: ESPN fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports Station.

I was just 2477 02:02:24,920 --> 02:02:28,240 Speaker 15: stunned at how wonderful that opening game was in the 2478 02:02:28,320 --> 02:02:31,400 Speaker 15: NBA last night with Houston and Okay, see that was 2479 02:02:31,760 --> 02:02:32,880 Speaker 15: incredibly good. 2480 02:02:33,040 --> 02:02:35,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's it's tough when you start a 2481 02:02:35,000 --> 02:02:38,760 Speaker 2: season like that because the the view is that, Okay, 2482 02:02:38,840 --> 02:02:40,280 Speaker 2: this is gonna be a big year. Puts a lot 2483 02:02:40,280 --> 02:02:41,920 Speaker 2: of pressure on all the other games as well. 2484 02:02:43,160 --> 02:02:44,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, it really does. 2485 02:02:44,880 --> 02:02:46,960 Speaker 15: I didn't make it for the Lakers game. I saw 2486 02:02:47,000 --> 02:02:49,720 Speaker 15: the score, but the Golden State whipped in. I wonder 2487 02:02:49,760 --> 02:02:51,240 Speaker 15: if Steph went off last night. 2488 02:02:51,440 --> 02:02:53,960 Speaker 2: No, he only had twenty three points. Luca went off, 2489 02:02:54,840 --> 02:02:58,760 Speaker 2: but Steph did. Jimmy Butler and Kaminga had a huge night. 2490 02:02:58,800 --> 02:03:02,080 Speaker 2: I got asked today on on social media, Mike. If 2491 02:03:02,160 --> 02:03:04,480 Speaker 2: Mike calls, can you ask him if the home dog 2492 02:03:04,560 --> 02:03:07,120 Speaker 2: strategy is also a go in the NBA as well? 2493 02:03:07,240 --> 02:03:08,520 Speaker 2: Or is it strictly baseball? 2494 02:03:09,720 --> 02:03:13,600 Speaker 15: Absolutely not the NBA on the baseball and baseball only. 2495 02:03:13,840 --> 02:03:15,040 Speaker 2: Okay, there we go. 2496 02:03:15,440 --> 02:03:16,680 Speaker 7: Yep, Yeah. 2497 02:03:16,720 --> 02:03:18,440 Speaker 15: I tried Horrison around with that. 2498 02:03:18,680 --> 02:03:20,280 Speaker 7: A big mistake, big, big miss. 2499 02:03:20,400 --> 02:03:22,360 Speaker 15: I should have listened to the old man that told me. 2500 02:03:22,440 --> 02:03:25,480 Speaker 15: He said, stick, I gave you a system. Stick to 2501 02:03:25,520 --> 02:03:26,280 Speaker 15: the system. 2502 02:03:26,520 --> 02:03:28,640 Speaker 7: Don't dev eight and you will do well. 2503 02:03:29,280 --> 02:03:30,800 Speaker 15: Naturally, I had the DEV eight. 2504 02:03:31,360 --> 02:03:34,160 Speaker 4: I think I know everything and I don't know crap obviously. 2505 02:03:34,480 --> 02:03:37,080 Speaker 15: Anyway, Hey, did. 2506 02:03:36,920 --> 02:03:37,480 Speaker 12: You know that? 2507 02:03:38,640 --> 02:03:41,360 Speaker 15: So I heard Jaydon Daniels is out for this game. 2508 02:03:42,360 --> 02:03:45,680 Speaker 51: To start, McLaurin and Deebo are back. 2509 02:03:46,040 --> 02:03:52,960 Speaker 15: I think they said Deebos Handles. 2510 02:03:53,000 --> 02:03:55,840 Speaker 2: Austin mentioned earlier that Mariota has won a playoff game 2511 02:03:55,840 --> 02:03:58,720 Speaker 2: at Arrowhead Stadium before. So he is a he is 2512 02:03:58,760 --> 02:04:01,240 Speaker 2: a very good backup. There's a reason they pay him 2513 02:04:01,280 --> 02:04:03,800 Speaker 2: to be the backup in Washington. You hope it's nothing 2514 02:04:03,880 --> 02:04:07,240 Speaker 2: long term for Jaydon Daniels. He has felt like his 2515 02:04:07,280 --> 02:04:10,160 Speaker 2: season hasn't even begun to get off the the mat 2516 02:04:10,240 --> 02:04:12,640 Speaker 2: yet because of the injuries he's had. But at the 2517 02:04:12,680 --> 02:04:15,760 Speaker 2: same time, I think Mariota is a dangerous player when 2518 02:04:15,960 --> 02:04:19,400 Speaker 2: when given the full complement of weapons, and he is. 2519 02:04:19,200 --> 02:04:25,200 Speaker 15: The pride of Honolulu, Hawaii. He was a huge high school. 2520 02:04:26,920 --> 02:04:27,040 Speaker 44: Too. 2521 02:04:28,600 --> 02:04:31,400 Speaker 15: Hey, I got something to run by with this Jets game. 2522 02:04:31,440 --> 02:04:33,200 Speaker 15: Well before I get to that, real quick. 2523 02:04:33,200 --> 02:04:35,480 Speaker 2: Got thirty seconds. 2524 02:04:35,480 --> 02:04:39,040 Speaker 15: Okay. The three top rank defense is overall based on 2525 02:04:40,120 --> 02:04:42,040 Speaker 15: yards allowed totally yards allowed. 2526 02:04:42,520 --> 02:04:44,000 Speaker 2: I would say the culture out there. 2527 02:04:45,480 --> 02:04:49,400 Speaker 15: Well the first three or the Browns, the Falcons, and 2528 02:04:49,480 --> 02:04:53,720 Speaker 15: the Houston Texans. The Browns are giving up two hundred 2529 02:04:53,720 --> 02:04:57,760 Speaker 15: and fifty six per game Atlanta to sixty five Denver 2530 02:04:58,080 --> 02:05:01,280 Speaker 15: three at two seventy three, used to at two seventy four. 2531 02:05:03,880 --> 02:05:06,920 Speaker 15: They rate the Browns defensive line as the best defense 2532 02:05:07,280 --> 02:05:11,440 Speaker 15: line in the in the NFL. And uh, hold on, 2533 02:05:11,480 --> 02:05:13,440 Speaker 15: I got this one other set I wanted to share 2534 02:05:13,480 --> 02:05:13,680 Speaker 15: with you. 2535 02:05:13,920 --> 02:05:13,960 Speaker 16: This. 2536 02:05:14,000 --> 02:05:14,200 Speaker 20: I know. 2537 02:05:14,240 --> 02:05:19,080 Speaker 15: I got about eight second clip now, Okay, hold on, 2538 02:05:19,880 --> 02:05:24,240 Speaker 15: I get frustrated a heck. Anyway, I was gonna say 2539 02:05:24,280 --> 02:05:29,640 Speaker 15: the Jets defense the total defense in ratings for passing 2540 02:05:29,880 --> 02:05:33,440 Speaker 15: and rushing defense, they're ranked sixteen. 2541 02:05:33,640 --> 02:05:35,360 Speaker 2: Yep, right in the metal Bengals are. 2542 02:05:35,280 --> 02:05:37,960 Speaker 15: Ranked thirty first. This does not bode well. 2543 02:05:38,920 --> 02:05:41,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, Mike, I appreciate the call man. Thank you the Bengals. 2544 02:05:42,760 --> 02:05:45,840 Speaker 2: If you can't beat the seven Jets, we got bigger problems, 2545 02:05:46,360 --> 02:05:48,760 Speaker 2: but it is I think it's more challenging than than 2546 02:05:48,760 --> 02:05:51,320 Speaker 2: maybe what the O and seven record leads to. We 2547 02:05:51,400 --> 02:05:53,640 Speaker 2: got to get a break. Quick Hits next finish up 2548 02:05:53,680 --> 02:05:56,760 Speaker 2: today's show on ESPN fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports station from. 2549 02:05:56,640 --> 02:06:00,600 Speaker 23: It's time for since the three sixty Quick Hits ones. 2550 02:06:02,320 --> 02:06:03,840 Speaker 3: Mo's getting ready for a show. We don't have him 2551 02:06:03,880 --> 02:06:06,280 Speaker 3: for Quick Kits today. He's probably somewhere two days in 2552 02:06:06,280 --> 02:06:09,320 Speaker 3: a row. Yeah, looks, listen the Knicks play tonight. 2553 02:06:09,640 --> 02:06:12,480 Speaker 2: You can't help.

Okay, his show is coming up in 2555 02:06:14,840 --> 02:06:16,960 Speaker 2: just a few minutes right here in the centred seat 2556 02:06:16,960 --> 02:06:19,520 Speaker 2: that I'm sitting in right now. Okay, The Moleger Show 2557 02:06:19,560 --> 02:06:22,200 Speaker 2: on ESPN fifteen thirty is coming up next. Now it's 2558 02:06:22,240 --> 02:06:24,760 Speaker 2: a big day obviously because Moe's Nicks start tonight, right, 2559 02:06:24,960 --> 02:06:26,280 Speaker 2: I wasn't aware, Austin. 2560 02:06:26,040 --> 02:06:29,480 Speaker 3: I'm a big Knicks fan. Tonight, I wasn't aware there 2561 02:06:29,480 --> 02:06:32,400 Speaker 3: it is. I wasn't aware that the Knicks are one 2562 02:06:32,440 --> 02:06:34,400 Speaker 3: of like the favorites in the East this year. Oh yeah, 2563 02:06:34,560 --> 02:06:38,400 Speaker 3: they had a good offseason and obviously there was talk 2564 02:06:38,440 --> 02:06:41,600 Speaker 3: about them potentially getting Yannis from the Bucks as one 2565 02:06:41,600 --> 02:06:43,280 Speaker 3: of those teams, but they would have to give up 2566 02:06:43,320 --> 02:06:46,280 Speaker 3: all of what makes their team good and deep to 2567 02:06:46,360 --> 02:06:50,160 Speaker 3: get Yannis. Mo would obviously know more. But yeah, I mean. 2568 02:06:50,280 --> 02:06:53,680 Speaker 2: So obviously that it doesn't hurt them that Tatum's out 2569 02:06:53,680 --> 02:06:56,920 Speaker 2: for the year for the Celtics, right, Halliburton is out 2570 02:06:56,920 --> 02:06:59,360 Speaker 2: for the Pacers.

There has 2575 02:07:13,040 --> 02:07:15,560 Speaker 3: not been a lot of talk about the Heat, but 2576 02:07:15,600 --> 02:07:17,320 Speaker 3: I do think Cleveland's one of those teams. 2577 02:07:17,400 --> 02:07:19,160 Speaker 2: Okay, what about the Charlotte Hornets. 2578 02:07:20,520 --> 02:07:22,200 Speaker 3: I don't know that I could name a hornet. To 2579 02:07:22,240 --> 02:07:25,400 Speaker 3: be honest with you, kem is Uh is one of 2580 02:07:25,400 --> 02:07:26,480 Speaker 3: the ball brothers still there. 2581 02:07:26,520 --> 02:07:29,160 Speaker 2: I think he's there. Is Kemba Backer. No Kimba Walker. 2582 02:07:30,720 --> 02:07:33,120 Speaker 3: I don't know if you're joking or not, because I 2583 02:07:33,280 --> 02:07:35,200 Speaker 3: legit don't know anything about the hornets. 2584 02:07:35,200 --> 02:07:36,400 Speaker 2: I don't think he's there anymore. 2585 02:07:36,440 --> 02:07:39,040 Speaker 3: I am the most casual NBA fan, Like I watched 2586 02:07:39,080 --> 02:07:41,720 Speaker 3: most of last night as we talked about, but like 2587 02:07:42,520 --> 02:07:46,720 Speaker 3: you know, I'm not really following along the league transactions. 2588 02:07:46,760 --> 02:07:49,600 Speaker 3: I like to tune in and be like, oh that guy. 2589 02:07:49,720 --> 02:07:53,200 Speaker 2: We we did talk about it the ring ceremony last night, 2590 02:07:53,720 --> 02:07:57,960 Speaker 2: as we mentioned earlier. Thankfully, finally someone has realized make 2591 02:07:58,000 --> 02:08:00,760 Speaker 2: these big extravagant rings, but also anna ring inside of 2592 02:08:00,760 --> 02:08:02,560 Speaker 2: the ring that you can wear on a normal basis, 2593 02:08:02,560 --> 02:08:03,480 Speaker 2: that you can actually wear. 2594 02:08:03,520 --> 02:08:05,640 Speaker 3: I know Dan Patrick has been talking about this for 2595 02:08:05,680 --> 02:08:08,520 Speaker 3: a long time, and it just makes a lot of 2596 02:08:08,520 --> 02:08:10,640 Speaker 3: sense to have something because we've seen it to the 2597 02:08:10,640 --> 02:08:12,640 Speaker 3: point where some guys just put the ring on a 2598 02:08:12,760 --> 02:08:15,480 Speaker 3: chain because you can't wear it on your hand, and 2599 02:08:15,520 --> 02:08:16,440 Speaker 3: maybe you turn into. 2600 02:08:16,280 --> 02:08:19,640 Speaker 2: The incredible stuff like. 2601 02:08:19,600 --> 02:08:23,720 Speaker 3: Our guy Joe Walter, he wears his AFC Championship ring 2602 02:08:23,840 --> 02:08:26,200 Speaker 3: just about every single day, as he should. And yeah, 2603 02:08:26,240 --> 02:08:30,280 Speaker 3: as he should. And obviously it's not a super Bowl ring. 2604 02:08:30,360 --> 02:08:32,160 Speaker 3: But even if he had gotten a super Bowl ring 2605 02:08:32,240 --> 02:08:35,640 Speaker 3: back then, it wasn't big and bulky in this whole 2606 02:08:35,640 --> 02:08:38,720 Speaker 3: big thing. Like part of the whole idea is that 2607 02:08:38,760 --> 02:08:43,240 Speaker 3: it's something you can wear and you know, show off 2608 02:08:43,280 --> 02:08:44,560 Speaker 3: a little bit. You know, when I was at the 2609 02:08:44,560 --> 02:08:47,560 Speaker 3: Packers Hall of Fame the other week, they had all 2610 02:08:47,600 --> 02:08:52,200 Speaker 3: these different awards that and basically pieces of jewelry that 2611 02:08:52,360 --> 02:08:54,960 Speaker 3: used to be the reward for winning an MVP or 2612 02:08:55,000 --> 02:08:57,760 Speaker 3: winning the NFL championship. Like, they had all these old 2613 02:08:57,800 --> 02:09:03,320 Speaker 3: watches from Bart Starr watches and like necklaces, like trinkets 2614 02:09:03,360 --> 02:09:07,600 Speaker 3: and rings from Vince Lombardi's collection. Yeah, and it's amazing 2615 02:09:07,600 --> 02:09:09,840 Speaker 3: to see how much it's changed from this little thing 2616 02:09:10,280 --> 02:09:14,160 Speaker 3: to that ginormous thing that is championship rings. 2617 02:09:14,480 --> 02:09:15,200 Speaker 2: What did you make? 2618 02:09:15,240 --> 02:09:16,600 Speaker 3: I know one of the things you were looking forward 2619 02:09:16,640 --> 02:09:19,600 Speaker 3: to last night was Michael Jordan. Yeah, and to sit 2620 02:09:19,640 --> 02:09:21,440 Speaker 3: down with Mike Terriico. And there's obviously going to be 2621 02:09:21,520 --> 02:09:24,440 Speaker 3: more of these. I love the quote of that he 2622 02:09:24,480 --> 02:09:26,480 Speaker 3: wished he could take the magic pill, put the shorts 2623 02:09:26,480 --> 02:09:27,840 Speaker 3: on and go out and play the game because that's 2624 02:09:27,880 --> 02:09:31,800 Speaker 3: who he is, the competitiveness, the greatness. But I also 2625 02:09:31,920 --> 02:09:34,040 Speaker 3: found it fascinating that he's just not picked up a 2626 02:09:34,040 --> 02:09:36,440 Speaker 3: ball in quite some time. Yeah, Like Tarico was like, 2627 02:09:36,440 --> 02:09:38,320 Speaker 3: come on, when's the last time, And He's like, well, 2628 02:09:38,360 --> 02:09:38,640 Speaker 3: you're here. 2629 02:09:38,680 --> 02:09:41,480 Speaker 2: Do you see a hoop anywhere? Yeah? He said he 2630 02:09:41,560 --> 02:09:44,600 Speaker 2: was at the Ryder Cup this past year in the 2631 02:09:44,600 --> 02:09:46,560 Speaker 2: house that he rented out had a basketball hoop and 2632 02:09:46,600 --> 02:09:49,040 Speaker 2: the guy that he rented it from had like his 2633 02:09:49,120 --> 02:09:50,440 Speaker 2: grandkids or some kids over. 2634 02:09:50,600 --> 02:09:50,880 Speaker 5: Yeah. 2635 02:09:50,960 --> 02:09:52,880 Speaker 2: He said he kind of got put on the spot, 2636 02:09:52,920 --> 02:09:54,360 Speaker 2: and he said was the most nervous he's been in 2637 02:09:54,400 --> 02:09:54,960 Speaker 2: a long time. 2638 02:09:55,520 --> 02:09:59,320 Speaker 3: My question would be in that conversation, who did you 2639 02:09:59,360 --> 02:10:02,040 Speaker 3: rent the house from? And who does he think he is? 2640 02:10:02,120 --> 02:10:05,400 Speaker 3: That he can ask Michael correct or basically tell Michael Jordan. 2641 02:10:05,600 --> 02:10:08,000 Speaker 3: But I get to because I'm sure Jordan's paying really 2642 02:10:08,080 --> 02:10:09,480 Speaker 3: nicely to stay at this guy's house. 2643 02:10:09,520 --> 02:10:11,240 Speaker 2: That's what Jordan said last He's like, I wasn't getting 2644 02:10:11,240 --> 02:10:11,840 Speaker 2: the place for free. 2645 02:10:11,920 --> 02:10:16,080 Speaker 3: He said, You've already brought your grandkids over to meet 2646 02:10:16,120 --> 02:10:18,240 Speaker 3: him and take pictures with him. Who do you think 2647 02:10:18,280 --> 02:10:21,000 Speaker 3: you are to put Michael Jordan on the spot to 2648 02:10:21,080 --> 02:10:22,560 Speaker 3: ask him to shoot a basketball. 2649 02:10:22,680 --> 02:10:25,640 Speaker 2: But I loved the most his response of I was 2650 02:10:25,720 --> 02:10:29,920 Speaker 2: so nervous because those kids have been told stories about 2651 02:10:29,960 --> 02:10:32,240 Speaker 2: Michael Jordan and so they don't view him as the 2652 02:10:32,240 --> 02:10:35,280 Speaker 2: older guy. Now they view him as the goat. He 2653 02:10:35,320 --> 02:10:36,200 Speaker 2: said he made the free throw. 2654 02:10:36,240 --> 02:10:38,480 Speaker 3: Of course, I thought it was cool. I saw a 2655 02:10:38,520 --> 02:10:43,240 Speaker 3: tweet from Colin Keene, who is a rights for Sports 2656 02:10:43,280 --> 02:10:46,840 Speaker 3: Illustrated and Fan Sided and stuff, and he said mj 2657 02:10:47,080 --> 02:10:49,720 Speaker 3: was nervous he'd missed that free throw and a bunch 2658 02:10:49,720 --> 02:10:51,200 Speaker 3: of in front of a bunch of kids that had 2659 02:10:51,240 --> 02:10:54,520 Speaker 3: never seen him play, and that it's the humility that 2660 02:10:54,560 --> 02:10:58,960 Speaker 3: has always driven Jordan. Yeah, you know, once being undervalue, 2661 02:10:58,960 --> 02:11:02,560 Speaker 3: the desire to prove himself. Very few stars have this 2662 02:11:02,680 --> 02:11:05,760 Speaker 3: now everyone's coddled from a young age. This is Colin 2663 02:11:05,840 --> 02:11:11,080 Speaker 3: Keyne's words in the AAU era lebron has quote nothing 2664 02:11:11,200 --> 02:11:13,360 Speaker 3: left to prove for years. He said that in his 2665 02:11:13,400 --> 02:11:17,160 Speaker 3: own words, Curry has the humility, Brady has the humility, 2666 02:11:17,760 --> 02:11:18,480 Speaker 3: Jordan has it. 2667 02:11:18,480 --> 02:11:19,600 Speaker 2: It's in most of the greats. 2668 02:11:19,880 --> 02:11:23,240 Speaker 3: I thought that was a cool human moment from Michael 2669 02:11:23,320 --> 02:11:25,440 Speaker 3: Jeffrey Jordan. I hope, by the way, that it's more 2670 02:11:25,520 --> 02:11:28,560 Speaker 3: than just one sit down that they do snippets of. 2671 02:11:28,600 --> 02:11:30,760 Speaker 2: They already tease the next one of him talking about 2672 02:11:31,000 --> 02:11:33,200 Speaker 2: load management and why it was important to him to 2673 02:11:33,240 --> 02:11:35,760 Speaker 2: play every game. Yeah, who you think that's a shot 2674 02:11:35,760 --> 02:11:39,600 Speaker 2: at probably half the league. Yep, He's the line I 2675 02:11:39,720 --> 02:11:43,400 Speaker 2: liked the most last night was the drive and the 2676 02:11:43,440 --> 02:11:45,880 Speaker 2: fire to compete is what he lives for and that's 2677 02:11:45,880 --> 02:11:46,480 Speaker 2: what he misses. 2678 02:11:47,240 --> 02:11:50,400 Speaker 3: He also talked about in the open about the contention 2679 02:11:50,800 --> 02:11:53,760 Speaker 3: that you could feel on the court, the competitiveness between 2680 02:11:54,240 --> 02:11:56,800 Speaker 3: his era and the era now. And I think that's true, 2681 02:11:56,960 --> 02:12:00,880 Speaker 3: Like it's there are a lot of buddy but friendship 2682 02:12:00,960 --> 02:12:02,920 Speaker 3: type of stuff in the league these days, and I 2683 02:12:02,960 --> 02:12:06,560 Speaker 3: do like I like that to an extent, but also 2684 02:12:06,680 --> 02:12:08,840 Speaker 3: wish it was a little bit more contentious. 2685 02:12:08,400 --> 02:12:10,720 Speaker 2: Those years man, where there was just genuine hate. 2686 02:12:11,200 --> 02:12:11,480 Speaker 5: Yeah. 2687 02:12:11,640 --> 02:12:14,240 Speaker 2: They we've talked about this before in sports. Yeah, that 2688 02:12:14,680 --> 02:12:18,720 Speaker 2: hate and that fire makes it even better because you 2689 02:12:18,800 --> 02:12:21,200 Speaker 2: can sense that on the field, like man on the 2690 02:12:21,280 --> 02:12:23,720 Speaker 2: court or on the field, these these teams or these 2691 02:12:23,760 --> 02:12:25,280 Speaker 2: players hate each other. 2692 02:12:25,800 --> 02:12:28,080 Speaker 3: And they asked Steph Curry, you know what were his 2693 02:12:28,200 --> 02:12:30,360 Speaker 3: memories from the nineties, back when the NBA was on 2694 02:12:30,480 --> 02:12:33,080 Speaker 3: NBC the first time, And he said, the rivalries like 2695 02:12:33,200 --> 02:12:36,800 Speaker 3: that era of basketball and those type of rivalries. By 2696 02:12:36,840 --> 02:12:40,200 Speaker 3: the way, Nix, we were talking about that load management. How 2697 02:12:40,200 --> 02:12:44,760 Speaker 3: about Mitchell Robinson and Josh Hart both missing tonight's season 2698 02:12:44,800 --> 02:12:48,200 Speaker 3: opener due to load management?
