206
00:10:54,720 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 7: Boo doesn't feel effective. Boo Jordan love boo. It's the

207
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 7: whole point of booing somebody so they can hear you, right,

208
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,199
Speaker 7: and you're trying to intimidate them with your booze. You're

209
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:09,679
Speaker 7: playing terrible. Hear my boot you're unhappy with the play

210
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:13,800

211
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 7: booing in a bar, I mean I think the bartender

212
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:17,840
Speaker 7: might be upset. Yeah, that means a bad drinking some

213
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:18,720
Speaker 7: ladies problem.

214
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:20,480
Speaker 4: Go someplace else, go booon a bar.

215
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:22,760

216
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 3: I'm a season ticket holder here at Wisconsin.

217
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 4: I just really upsets me.

218
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,080
Speaker 3: Well, I'm sorry that upsets your coach. I mean, you've

219
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 3: built the program, you've.

220
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,960
Speaker 6: Been in sports years, You've never heard fans booing.

221
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 3: You let him fire Paul Chris, and now Oregon State

222
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 3: wants to hire him.

223
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 4: So anyway, go someplace else, go booon a bar.

224
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:43,440
Speaker 3: We are at a bar.

225
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,679

226
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 7: could boo a top story, they could boo that. That's fine,

227
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 7: that makes sense. We can hear your booze and it'll

228
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:51,320
Speaker 7: emotionally affect us.

229
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:52,320

230
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 7: But it's not going to hurt anybody in the Wisconsin

231
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,960

278
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:09,199
Speaker 3: to here on the radio. But joining us right now

279
00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 3: on your Toyota Dealers Celebrity Hotline. It is Ben Bolch

280
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:21,320
Speaker 3: of the La Times, covering UCLA football very varied, not

281
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 3: so much the season, even though they're not gonna go defeated.

282
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 3: They've won a few games. But what's going on off

283
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 3: the field with UCLA trying to move to so far

284
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 3: and now an injunction has been filed, millions of dollars

285
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 3: are going to change hands. Everybody's got an idea what

286
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 3: should happen. Nobody knows what the real solution is or

287
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 3: will be, so to tell us all about it. After

288
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 3: UCLA just lost to Nebraska with their backup quarterback at home.

289
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:55,000

Speaker 5: I'm great, always great to be with you, gentlemen.

292
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 3: An So how much did this whole thing catch you

293
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 3: off guard? I mean, obviously you cover this very intensely,

294
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 3: and you do an excellent job, if we do say

295
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:13,200
Speaker 3: so ourselves. But how much did this catch you off guard?

296
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 3: And how deep are you going to have to dig

297
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 3: into this as far as you know local city, real estate, university,

298
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 3: red tape and all this fighting.

299
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 5: Then, yeah, there's a lot to unpack here. To your point,

300
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 5: there's going to be a lot to come here. The

301
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 5: interesting thing and the imminent decision that appears on the

302
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 5: horizon is Wednesday morning. There is a court date in

303
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 5: downtown and Los Angeles Superior Court to decide whether to

304
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:49,840
Speaker 5: grant this temporary injunction temporary restraining order that the city

305
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 5: capacity in the Road Bowl is requesting against UCLA to

306
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 5: force them to stay at the Rose Bowl until this

307
00:15:55,920 --> 00:16:00,400
Speaker 5: matter can be resolved. I'm not going to tend to

308
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 5: be a lawyer or a legal expert, so I don't

309
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:03,760
Speaker 5: really know.

310
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 3: Probably, man, we're live at a bar, so you're probably

311
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 3: gonna do better than us.

312
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:13,920
Speaker 5: Well, you know, in the filing they did, they did

313
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,120
Speaker 5: site some precedents of of you know, other teams that

314
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 5: have been trying to leave, even temporarily, and we're granted

315
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 5: the injunctions and had to stay. So you know, there's

316
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 5: president precedent in similar situations that might work in the

317
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 5: Rose Bulls favor. We have not seen uh UCLA, or

318
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:32,680
Speaker 5: at least I have not seen that it's been filed.

319
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 5: UCLA's response to this. UH will be eminently filed, I'm

320
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 5: sure before Wednesday, so I'll be keeping an eye out

321
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 5: for that. But we should have some, at least some

322
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 5: I think clarity on next season here pretty soon, right,

323
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 5: because the Rose bull needs to know, Hey, are we

324
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 5: going to be able to lock you in for at

325
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:55,640
Speaker 5: least next season so that we can continue operations. I mean,

326
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 5: they've got they've got people that they're trying to renew

327
00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 5: for you know, rubs suite for next season, right, So

328
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,880
Speaker 5: they need to get this decided at least for next

329
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:07,639
Speaker 5: season here pretty quickly.

330
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:09,280
Speaker 6: Ben.

331
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 7: I think we asked you this last time you came on.

332
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,399
Speaker 7: But considering now, it looks like they really want to

333
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 7: make it happen for twenty twenty six. Why is UCLA

334
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:19,879
Speaker 7: doing this when they have a contract that's supposed to

335
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:21,720
Speaker 7: run through like twenty forty three.

336
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:23,280
Speaker 6: Why so far?

337
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 7: Like, what's what's the idea behind this whole thing that

338
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,040
Speaker 7: sounds like it's going to cost them millions of dollars

339
00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 7: at the very least in legal fees.

340
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:33,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's gonna be a big check cutting no matter what, right,

341
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:35,840
Speaker 5: I mean, unless they just drop it inside to stay.

342
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 5: So I mean, but the bottom line is money from

343
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:42,680
Speaker 5: what I've been able to gather, UCLA thinks that even

344
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 5: with cutting some kind of really sizable check. And I

345
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:49,199
Speaker 5: think we're talking probably at the very least, you know,

346
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 5: a nine figure settlement here, that even taking that into account,

347
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 5: they're going to be able to come out ahead by

348
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:01,240
Speaker 5: moving to so far right, because the bottom line is

349
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,399
Speaker 5: they locked themselves into a long term deal at the

350
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:07,200
Speaker 5: Rose Bowl where they don't get sweet revenue, don't get

351
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:11,399
Speaker 5: sponsorship revenue, get a very small percentage of parking and

352
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 5: concessions and things like that. So you know, there's a

353
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,879
Speaker 5: lot of money that they think they're they're losing an

354
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 5: opportunity cost that they would get it so far right.

355
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:24,480
Speaker 5: And I think that this is being driven actually above

356
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,520
Speaker 5: from above the athletics department. I think that the university

357
00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 5: has taking a look at these debts that they've had

358
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 5: six years in a row now and said, hey, wait

359
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 5: a minute. You know they just cut them a thirty

360
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:37,199
Speaker 5: million dollar check last year to kind of kind of

361
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,560
Speaker 5: even to balance the budget, and they're they're looking for

362
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 5: ways to get this, you know, closer to a sustainable operation.

363
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:46,679
Speaker 5: And I think that's really at the heart of this.

364
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,200
Speaker 7: So if you know, just kind of based on where

365
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,880
Speaker 7: you're going with that, Ben, kind of what I'm interpreting

366
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 7: is this isn't about an empty Rose bowl. I guess

367
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:58,480
Speaker 7: it is, because if there's people there, they're paying money.

368
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 7: But this is more kind of corporate as opposed to

369
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:04,879
Speaker 7: student body. It's like, hey, we need to get paid

370
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 7: for the parking lot, we need to get paid for signage.

371
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:10,879
Speaker 7: It's that sort of thing as opposed to can we

372
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:13,439
Speaker 7: find a place to play football where our student body's

373
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 7: going to pack the house and we're going to have

374
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:15,920
Speaker 7: a good vibe out there.

375
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:20,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I think that they like the fact

376
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 5: that obviously so far as closer to campus and you know,

377
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:26,399
Speaker 5: there's a large percentage of UCLA fans on the West side,

378
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:28,719
Speaker 5: I think that's you know, part of it. But the

379
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 5: bottom line is the bottom line, if I do say so, so,

380
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:35,480
Speaker 5: you know, this is all about the dollar signs. This

381
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:39,439
Speaker 5: is all about improving their financial situation because, as you know,

382
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:44,800
Speaker 5: there's just so many challenges now financially for every college

383
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,960
Speaker 5: athletic program. And I will say, I think part of

384
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 5: this willingness to do this knowing they're going to have

385
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:55,080
Speaker 5: to pay money in the Rose Bowl is glooming deal

386
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:58,480
Speaker 5: with the Big ten, with the you know, UC pension

387
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:02,720
Speaker 5: system where retirement system, where they think they can get

388
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,199
Speaker 5: one hundred and forty million dollars up front. Right, So

389
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 5: that's a nice chuck of change that they might be

390
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:12,399
Speaker 5: able to have at their disposed disposal to offset whatever

391
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:13,720
Speaker 5: they have to pay out to the Rose Bowl.

392
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 3: But this doesn't solve their problem as far as attracting

393
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 3: people to football games, right, I mean you would you

394
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 3: would say.

395
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,359
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, you know, as I put in my story,

396
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:27,720
Speaker 5: they they played It's so far in the La Bowl

397
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,680
Speaker 5: in twenty twenty three and the crowd was only thirty

398
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:34,879
Speaker 5: two thousand, and that that that's lower than their season

399
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,399
Speaker 5: average this year when they're on pace to set an

400
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:40,880
Speaker 5: all time local right now, they're averaging thirty seven thousand.

401
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:43,879
Speaker 5: And I would say, you know, for that for that

402
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,320
Speaker 5: Bowl game, a big chuck of that was Boise State fan.

403
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:49,680
Speaker 5: So you know that's a whole separate conversation. I mean

404
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,399
Speaker 5: the tenants drop off and what they need to do.

405
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:54,879
Speaker 5: I mean, let's let's be honest. They need to hire

406
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:58,359
Speaker 5: a home run, make a home run higher with their coach,

407
00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 5: right and get somebody in there that's and to get

408
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 5: this thing back at least to what it was during

409
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 5: their early Jim Moore years. So that's going to be

410
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:06,639
Speaker 5: the goal now on that front.

411
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, who would have thought that Jim Mora was the

412
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:13,800
Speaker 3: last UCLA coach to consistently attract a crowd at the

413
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,479
Speaker 3: Rose Bowl. But that's the truth. Ben boltch joining us

414
00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 3: right now talking about the UCLA situation trying to move

415
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:25,280
Speaker 3: to SOFI now, stupid idiot, giant headed football players that

416
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:31,520
Speaker 3: don't understand homeowners associations like me, Ben, I just came

417
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 3: from UCF where they used to be swallowed up by

418
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:38,560
Speaker 3: the Citrus Bowl and now it's the Camping World Stadium,

419
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,880
Speaker 3: and they moved to an on campus stadium and now

420
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,359
Speaker 3: they're in the Big twelve and more of a thriving program.

421
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:48,119
Speaker 3: Two lane with a similar situation, moving to a smaller

422
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 3: stadium on campus, away from the Superdome and becoming more relevant,

423
00:21:54,000 --> 00:22:00,199
Speaker 3: certainly in their world of college football. It's totally and

424
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,439
Speaker 3: completely out of the question that UCLA could ever have

425
00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 3: an on campus facility that was smaller and then play

426
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,640
Speaker 3: the bigger games in a so fire the Rose Bowl.

427
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 3: Why is that so out of the realm of possibility.

428
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:17,760
Speaker 5: Well, it's a good question, and it's one I get

429
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:21,800
Speaker 5: emailed pretty much almost every day. I mean, I think

430
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:24,800
Speaker 5: the big answer is that, you know, the UC regents,

431
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:28,399
Speaker 5: when when this was looked at back in the sixties,

432
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 5: basically said because of some of the homeowners in that

433
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 5: area that put the cabash on it. They said, Okay,

434
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,679
Speaker 5: we're going to have Drake Stadium, the Track Stadium, but

435
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 5: we're never going to have a football stadium there. And

436
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 5: they've basically committed to that. I mean, they've got underground

437
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:48,920
Speaker 5: parking there, they've got homeowners associations that would be very

438
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:52,800
Speaker 5: much against that. So there's a lot of political wrangling

439
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 5: that I think, and I've been asking that question as well,

440
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 5: but I don't think there's any sort of momentum toward

441
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:00,480
Speaker 5: being able to do that. And I think it would

442
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 5: just be too difficult, given you know, kind of the

443
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 5: landscape and what's already been put in place there.

444
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:11,960
Speaker 7: Ben to shift to the on the field product kind

445
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 7: of what what happens with with Nico Imlava after this season?

446
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 7: Is he going to the NFL? Is there a bigger

447
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:20,520
Speaker 7: check out there?

448
00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 3: Like what do you?

449
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 6: How do you think?

450
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,639
Speaker 7: Because it's not from what I understand, it's not a

451
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,680
Speaker 7: great quarterback class there certainly does not feel like there's

452
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 7: a consensus number one overall pick. So how does this

453
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 7: thing end for him at UCLA?

454
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, I've been thinking about that a lot lately. But

455
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,960
Speaker 5: I'll say, first of all, been super impressed with Nikar.

456
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,800
Speaker 5: I think he's been everything they wanted and more. I mean,

457
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,640
Speaker 5: he's done just a fabulous job of running this offense.

458
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 5: I mean he's taken so many hits. He's there, you know,

459
00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:49,919
Speaker 5: he's there leading rusher on the season, and he just

460
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 5: there's so many times he just gets smashed and I'm

461
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:54,919
Speaker 5: just like kind of wincing and he gets up and

462
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:58,520
Speaker 5: it's just fine. And he's also been super accountable. He's

463
00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 5: met with us after every law put it on his shoulders.

464
00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:05,920
Speaker 5: So he's a true baller. I've really been impressed with him,

465
00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:09,120
Speaker 5: you know, and he's got great character too. I wouldn't

466
00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 5: be surprised, you know, at Big Ten Media Day. He

467
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:13,520
Speaker 5: said that if he had the season he wanted, he

468
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,600
Speaker 5: would go on and go to the NFL. But I

469
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:17,760
Speaker 5: think he really is enjoying his time, even with kind

470
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,280
Speaker 5: of the up and downs that they've had this year.

471
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,680
Speaker 5: And frankly, I wouldn't be surprised if he came back

472
00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:24,679
Speaker 5: for one more year, especially if they got a coach

473
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:29,000
Speaker 5: that really connected with him and sold him on, you know,

474
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 5: a vision, and maybe brought a good chunk of his

475
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,400
Speaker 5: roster with him for kind of like that Indiana infusion

476
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:36,920
Speaker 5: of talent. I could see a scenario where we see

477
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:40,640
Speaker 5: Nko back with the Bruins in twenty twenty six.

478
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 3: Somebody better tell Casey's got to ride a pretty big

479
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 3: check along with the Rose Bowl legal fees. The great

480
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:50,280
Speaker 3: Ben boltch our guest. The last time we talked to you, Ben,

481
00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:52,399
Speaker 3: we were Matt and I were at a bar, but

482
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:56,440
Speaker 3: we were at a casino bar. This time we're at

483
00:24:56,440 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 3: a much more acceptable bar here in Curritos, and it

484
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 3: was Lane Kiffin that was maybe a hotter name for

485
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,680
Speaker 3: UCLA at the time. Now I think he's going to

486
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 3: be offered a lot of other jobs and living in

487
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:13,119
Speaker 3: Manhattan Beach probably is not going to be enough to

488
00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,240
Speaker 3: bring him out to the West Coast. Maybe he's going

489
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 3: to jump to the NFL, or maybe he'll stay at Ole,

490
00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:21,760
Speaker 3: Miss who knows. But who do you think now, as

491
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:25,080
Speaker 3: it's been a month or so since we talked, is

492
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:29,720
Speaker 3: in UCLA's wheelhouse to hire as a coach. I mean,

493
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 3: Jim Mora just filled up that freaking stadium in stores

494
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 3: for Yukon. Not that they want to go on that

495
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,119
Speaker 3: ride again. But who do you think UCLA is looking

496
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,000
Speaker 3: at right now? And who do you think is going

497
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:42,120
Speaker 3: to make the higher.

498
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean the landscape has completely changed since our

499
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:49,240
Speaker 5: last conversation, right, so, so many more big time jobs

500
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,439
Speaker 5: have opened up. I'm going to take a lot of

501
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:53,800
Speaker 5: people off the table that you say might have been

502
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:56,720
Speaker 5: able to get previously. So I think really the two

503
00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,159
Speaker 5: paths for them. You know, if I was running the

504
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:00,760
Speaker 5: search up to say that going to do this, but

505
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:03,879
Speaker 5: I think you know an up and coming kind of

506
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:08,040
Speaker 5: group of five guys, uh or you know a big

507
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:11,640
Speaker 5: time coordinator like will Stein at Oregon. I think those

508
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:13,160
Speaker 5: are the kind of the two paths. But I think

509
00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:15,919
Speaker 5: the bottom line is you want to get somebody who's

510
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:17,679
Speaker 5: not going to be at u c l A for

511
00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:20,080
Speaker 5: two or three years, but it's going to try to

512
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 5: stay and make this their own thing, right, kind of

513
00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 5: become the Dan Landing of Westland. I know that's you know,

514
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,360
Speaker 5: that's asking a lot there, but I think you want

515
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:30,879
Speaker 5: to get some money. Who's who's uh really going to

516
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:32,800
Speaker 5: be able to put their stamp on this and and

517
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:35,480
Speaker 5: be proud of what they've done and and and you know,

518
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 5: really built with this program and not just use it

519
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 5: as a stepping stone. If I'm running the committee, Uh,

520
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,679
Speaker 5: that's that's what I would want, I do think you know,

521
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 5: as I think we talked last time, having Bob Myers

522
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:52,879
Speaker 5: and Adam Peters the Commander's GM. Those are two heavyweight

523
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:57,040
Speaker 5: uh sports figures, really smart guys. They're part of this process.

524
00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 5: So that gives me a lot of confidence that they're

525
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:02,720
Speaker 5: gonna kick guitires on a lot of quality people and

526
00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:05,200
Speaker 5: probably be able to come it with somebody pretty darn good.

527
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:08,080
Speaker 3: All right, Ben, you're gonna have to slip some punches tonight.

528
00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:09,800
Speaker 3: You got basketball to cover, right.

529
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:13,120
Speaker 5: That's right, No Donovan dead tonight, Petros he's out.

530
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:15,520
Speaker 3: It's gonna be what's wrong with you got him?

531
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,880
Speaker 5: I'm breaking some news here, muscle strain. He's but it's

532
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:22,280
Speaker 5: only precautionary, so it's probably you know, if this was

533
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,800
Speaker 5: the Arizona game on Friday, he probably played. But they're

534
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:28,200
Speaker 5: gonna take it easy with him tonight against West Georgia.

535
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:29,680
Speaker 5: Probably the right moves.

536
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 3: All right, as long as it's the questions. What just

537
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 3: ask the questions? Okay, all right, we'll get there. I

538
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:38,880
Speaker 3: just as long as they're not playing that strip mall

539
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 3: team from Hawaii. Why don't I saw beat Boise? Thanks

540
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:45,640
Speaker 3: a lot, Ben, have a great night. Thanks for doing it, dude, right.

541
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 5: Enjoy yourselves, appreciate your time. Thank you so much.

542
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 3: You always do here at the BJ's Restaurant in brew House.

543
00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:52,639
Speaker 2: Are you asking a question there?

544
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:52,920
Speaker 7: Ben?

545
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:56,680
Speaker 3: Gotta bring your a game if you're gonna spar with

546
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:57,640
Speaker 3: Mick cronin.

547
00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 6: Here'd you leaked the Donovan Dead stuff on the PM show?

548
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:00,439
Speaker 7: There?

549
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:02,920
Speaker 6: Ben? Who told you could do that best radio show

550
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:03,200
Speaker 6: in town?

551
00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:05,880
Speaker 7: You said it, Coach, exactly right, Petrosen money the best

552
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:06,560
Speaker 7: show in town.

553
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:09,560
Speaker 3: We don't have people booing at a bar, not yet,

554
00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:13,400
Speaker 3: but there is a guy cheering at the bar. He

555
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 3: makes sense.

556
00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 7: I think that makes sense. You know why, because other

557
00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 7: guys will give you high fives at the bar. They're

558
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 7: getting excited.

559
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,600
Speaker 3: But you know it's from a sound clip of Barry Alvarez.

560
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:23,640
Speaker 3: It's a don't worry.

561
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:26,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's just booing a bar.

562
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:28,880
Speaker 3: Look, it's Bob Eiger trying to take the sting out

563
00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:32,400
Speaker 3: of the whole YouTube thing. Yeah that's gonna work.

Speaker 3: show has gone on, and we also talked to Dean

604
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 3: Blandino in our very first hour all about the rule

605
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 3: violation from my alma mater, the University of Southern California. Matt,

606
00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:38,200
Speaker 3: an interesting story for your dead guy. Birthday of the day.

607
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 3: It is Jamaican news, and I do this.

608
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:46,840
Speaker 1: It's Jamaica news, seems. St.

609
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 3: Vincent is the name of the gentleman whose birthday it is.

610
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:54,200
Speaker 3: He would have been eighty five. He was in a

611
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 3: wheelchair having lost his legs. He lost my legs both

612
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 3: lay and you know why his legs fell off, Matt,

613
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:08,200
Speaker 3: You guessed it. Diabetes, Oh, diabetes. As a young man,

614
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:13,960
Speaker 3: his nickname was Tata or Tartar. Despite his disability as

615
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 3: a youth. That has said that he saved another youth

616
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:20,280
Speaker 3: from drowning when he was a team so he could

617
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:24,440
Speaker 3: swim even with no legs like our old friend. Recently,

618
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:27,240
Speaker 3: on a road trip with Pat Cowan, Nick Nick Nick

619
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 3: Nick Eggbatani.

620
00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 7: Kills us that we lost that jingle. It really was

621
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:34,440
Speaker 7: one of the best, if not the best, we've ever had.

622
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 3: Nick Egbatani could swim with one leg, as has been

623
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:41,480
Speaker 3: proven to swim with Mike event annually at usc anyway,

624
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:48,040
Speaker 3: this guy, Vincent Ford, ran a soup kitchen in trench Town, Kingston,

625
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 3: which of course is where Bob Marley was from, hence

626
00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 3: the controversy. Bob Marley was close friends with Tatam and

627
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:04,320
Speaker 3: Bob changed his songwriting credits from who Had Him to

628
00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:08,120
Speaker 3: Chris Blackwell at Island Records who You Met Once Once

629
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:13,760
Speaker 3: and Vincent because of that, and because of the transition,

630
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:20,880
Speaker 3: is listed as the songwriter for nineteen seventy four's No Woman.

631
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:21,240
Speaker 6: No Crime.

632
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:26,000
Speaker 3: He's also listed as the songwriter for Crazy Bald Head,

633
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 3: and he's also listed as the songwriter to Positive Vibration,

634
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:37,120
Speaker 3: and he's also listed as the songwriter for Roots Rock Reggae.

635
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 3: Now did he write the songs.

636
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:43,440
Speaker 6: Love.

637
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 3: He's never said, but it is generally believed that Bob

638
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:54,720
Speaker 3: parceled off lots of his credits. He didn't want any

639
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:58,600
Speaker 3: of his new songs associated with somebody he had a

640
00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 3: contract with before, which was called Cayman Music, so he

641
00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 3: put songs in the names of family members and close

642
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:15,920
Speaker 3: friends to avoid contractual restrictions, and helped provide for friends

643
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:20,360
Speaker 3: and Family like the Legless Tata four.

644
00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:23,520
Speaker 6: What a Good Dude.

645
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 3: In nineteen seventy five, Marlee did admit in an interview

646
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:35,320
Speaker 3: that he wrote No Woman, No Cry in Tata's front.

647
00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 7: Yard, contributed gave when asked by Marley's biographer.

648
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:46,480
Speaker 3: Tata was asked at one point if he wrote the songs,

649
00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:52,280
Speaker 3: He answered, what do you think? Others say that he

650
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:58,120
Speaker 3: inspired the songs through conversation. Bob's family went to court

651
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:01,880
Speaker 3: and got all the credits. Well he was dead, but

652
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:06,720
Speaker 3: got all the credits back eventually, and Ford died in

653
00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:11,520
Speaker 3: late two thousand and eight. The Marley estate now controls

654
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:18,319
Speaker 3: Crazy Bald Head, No Woman, No Cry, Positive Vibration, and

655
00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:24,160
Speaker 3: roots rock reggae. But some interesting tidbits about Bob Marley

Speaker 3: Uh.

683
00:35:56,360 --> 00:36:00,279
Speaker 7: Daniel Waters he is sixty three today. He is the

684
00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:03,319
Speaker 7: older brother of Mark. Mark directed Mean Girls. It's in

685
00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:06,360
Speaker 7: the Family. Daniel is a screenwriter and we're going to

686
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 7: focus on one film in particular because while the particulars

687
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:12,040
Speaker 7: are pretty incredible. He was born in Cleveland, raised in

688
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:15,600
Speaker 7: South Bend, started and wrote a column titled Troubled Waters

689
00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:18,600
Speaker 7: for his high school newspaper that became super popular with

690
00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:23,680
Speaker 7: the student body, did some local sketch comedy, went to

691
00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:27,480
Speaker 7: Montreal to attend McGill University, and when he graduated, he

692
00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:28,440
Speaker 7: chased the Hollywood dream.

693
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:30,600
Speaker 3: He went to Malmtreal to attend.

694
00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:38,359
Speaker 7: His uh Hollywood dream went the same way as Quinton Tarantino's.

695
00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:40,400
Speaker 6: He was working as a video store clerk.

696
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:45,840
Speaker 7: In Hermosa not sure where, but while there he worked

697
00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 7: on his craft and he began writing the screenplay in

698
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,080
Speaker 7: the spring of nineteen eighty six for Heathers.

699
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:53,640
Speaker 6: It was a speck.

700
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:56,759
Speaker 7: He wanted Stanley Kubrick to direct the film, thinking it

701
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:59,879
Speaker 7: would speak to him a similar approach as Doctor Strain

702
00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:04,000
Speaker 7: Love his favorite film. His pitch was Let's Run Opo

703
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:08,160
Speaker 7: the Ouey gooey John Hughes coming of age teenage films

704
00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 7: of the time by presenting something cynical of high school

705
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:17,799
Speaker 7: imbued with dark satire. The Cafeteria Senior. The start of

706
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:20,120
Speaker 7: Heathers was written as an homage to the barrack scene

707
00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:24,279
Speaker 7: that opens Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket. So after a number

708
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:27,800
Speaker 7: of failed attempts to get the script greenlit or accepted

709
00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:30,319
Speaker 7: by Kubrick, he approached director Michael Lahman, who agreed to

710
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 7: take it on. Some tweaks were made. The original version,

711
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:36,080
Speaker 7: JD successfully blows up Westerberg High and the final scene

712
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:40,719
Speaker 7: is a surreal prom gathering in Heaven. Studios were like, no,

713
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:42,719
Speaker 7: we're not doing that. Lighten it up a little bit there.

714
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:49,399
Speaker 7: Francis casting was polarizing. Waters early choices for Veronica were

715
00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:53,320
Speaker 7: Justine Bateman and Jennifer Connolly, but neither of their agents

716
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:55,520
Speaker 7: wanted them to be part of a dark and weird

717
00:37:55,560 --> 00:38:00,359
Speaker 7: film like Heathers. Winona Ryder begged for the part, but

718
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:04,319
Speaker 7: Waters told her straight up, you're not pretty enough. So

719
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:08,800
Speaker 7: when Oda said she understood, she had blue hair, didn't

720
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:12,640
Speaker 7: wear makeup, and was pale at the time. Out of Pedaluma,

721
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:16,480
Speaker 7: she went to the Beverly Center and the Macy's, got

722
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:19,040
Speaker 7: a makeover and came back and said how about now,

723
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:23,840
Speaker 7: And she was cast, despite the protests of her agent.

724
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:29,560
Speaker 7: Brad Pitt begged for the role of JD, but our

725
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:32,600
Speaker 7: man Waters said, nah, I'm going with this. Wanna be

726
00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:37,719
Speaker 7: Jack Nicholson, guy, Christian Slater. Heather Graham was offered the

727
00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:39,800
Speaker 7: part of Heather Chandler, but her parents didn't.

728
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:40,520
Speaker 3: I don't see that.

729
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,320
Speaker 7: Heather Graham's parents said no, I don't like the script.

730
00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:48,759
Speaker 7: You're not doing it. So Slater's girlfriend took that role,

731
00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:52,359
Speaker 7: and Shannon Doherty, this is my favorite little tidbit from

732
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:56,280
Speaker 7: the Heathers. She wanted the role of Ironica was offered.

733
00:38:56,280 --> 00:39:00,600
Speaker 7: Heather Chandler said no, thank you, gimme. Heather Duke said fine,

734
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 7: we want you to dye your hair blonde to match

735
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:05,120
Speaker 7: the other girls. She said no. They met in the

736
00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,120
Speaker 7: middle with her red hair. They said she was a

737
00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:12,800
Speaker 7: handful on the set and at the cast. Yeah, Dougherty

738
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:15,600
Speaker 7: at the cast viewing for the first time that anybody

739
00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:19,080
Speaker 7: saw the film after it was complete, she ran out crying.

740
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,400
Speaker 7: Did not know it was a dark comedy. Thought it

741
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:24,239
Speaker 7: was a serious drama and she might like to be

742
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:26,600
Speaker 7: nominated for an Oscar or something.

743
00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 3: And sheminated for a dark comedy.

744
00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:33,120
Speaker 7: I guess not. Waters would win the Edgar Award for

745
00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:36,160
Speaker 7: Best Picture. But it was a box office failure only

746
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:39,640
Speaker 7: later became a cult. Yeah, it only made a million

747
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:41,520
Speaker 7: seven at the box Yes.

748
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:44,200
Speaker 3: That's why big fun teenage suicide don't do it wasn't

Speaker 7: All the guys that made all the RAM records, like

752
00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:51,319
Speaker 7: their engineer, their producer, were the guys from Big Fun.
