23
00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 5: got slaughtered. The bruin bus came to a screeching frickin'

28
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:14,400
Speaker 5: how are you man?

29
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:15,559
Speaker 6: I'm good?

30
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:15,840
Speaker 3: Thanks?

31
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 6: How you guys good?

32
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,880
Speaker 5: We were talking last segment to Greg Lewis and Mario

33
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 5: Bailey about Jedfish, and here's a guy who obviously there's

34
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:28,040
Speaker 5: a lot of jobs open around college football, the Florida job,

35
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 5: Penn State.

36
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 3: LSU, UCLA.

37
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,400
Speaker 5: Why don't we just, first of all, before we talk

38
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 5: about extensions and things like that. Do you think that

39
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:40,400
Speaker 5: around the country Jedfish is doing enough at you dub

40
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:44,960
Speaker 5: right now to be more attractive on a national scale,

41
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 5: less attractive on a national scale, or the same as

42
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 5: maybe what he was a couple of years ago.

43
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 6: I think he is probably the same.

44
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 7: Okay, the fact that they didn't the two highest profile

45
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 7: games of their sea Ohio state of Michigan, they got

46
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 7: beat badly, and I think that that has kept him

47
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 7: from kind of jumping to the top tier of candidates.

48
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 7: He is not on the top tier, right, we could

49
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:15,080
Speaker 7: go through that list. He's like for both well, certainly

50
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 7: for Florida. You know, he's second tier. I don't know

51
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,359
Speaker 7: what's going on with UCLA, but you know, I don't

52
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:25,240
Speaker 7: think he's nearly as hot as he would be if

53
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 7: they had won one of those games.

54
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 8: Put it that way, Why would Jed want to go

55
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,399
Speaker 8: to UCLA if they were interested in him?

56
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 7: I have personal reasons, you know, I think his family

57
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 7: really likes it down there. If you're looking at football perspective,

58
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 7: there is no reason.

59
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 6: There's none, you know.

60
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 7: Now, the UCLA is committing, They are committing resources. They

61
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 7: are you know, they have gotten permission from the University

62
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,359
Speaker 7: of California regents to offer a big time salary eight

63
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 7: ten twelve million a year.

64
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:57,360
Speaker 9: Right.

65
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 7: They are frustrated with how things are going, and they

66
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 7: are committed, and they've got.

67
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:02,919
Speaker 6: A chancellor who seems committed.

68
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 7: If Washington's still a better job, right, Uh, it just

69
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 7: it just is. And you know, Jet, whether Jed views

70
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 7: you know, the personal things as a real pull or not,

71
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,519
Speaker 7: I don't know. And I'm not even convinced he really

72
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 7: wants to go. I think that he and his agent

73
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 7: are being smart. They're trying to get as much leverage

74
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,520
Speaker 7: as they can because he he can use that leverage

75
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:27,080
Speaker 7: if they're nine and three or ten and two to

76
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 7: get an extension from Washington.

77
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 5: Well, he and they want his name out there. They

78
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 5: want his name out there as much as humanly possible.

79
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 5: I mean, you tell me, John. There was a story

80
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 5: a couple of weeks ago that I don't know who

81
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 5: it was, somebody from some network that said that Jedfish

82
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 5: is Jedfish was a name of note I guess is

83
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 5: what the story was for the UCLA job. So why

84
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 5: would his Why would Doug Hendrickson, who's Jed's agent, also

85
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 5: represents Marshawn Lynch and other people like that, Gary Payton's

86
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 5: agent back in the day. So local guy, why would

87
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 5: Doug Hendrickson want Jed fish name associated with UCLA? And

88
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 5: where does that start? You think at UCLA?

89
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,520
Speaker 7: Well, you know who Hendrickson works for, right, Washington works

90
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 7: for Wasserman, Right, the Wasserman.

91
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 6: Group, and the CEO of the Washerman Group.

92
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 7: Casey Washerman is UCLA's biggest donor and is in leading

93
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 7: the search for UCLA's next coach, So it behooves Wasserman

94
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,840
Speaker 7: the company for to they want to make a market

95
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 7: for fish and for UCLA. So hendrickson leaking Jed's name

96
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 7: for and I don't know if he did it, but

97
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,719
Speaker 7: I'm assuming he did for the UCLA job. That just

98
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 7: helps all three parties. It helps Jed, it helps Washerman,

99
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 7: it helps the bruins.

100
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 3: Well do you think, Joel?

101
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 5: Let me ask you this because there are some folks

102
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:51,839
Speaker 5: out there on social media that have totally shot down

103
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 5: the Jedfish to UCLA thing? Would you do the same?

104
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,919
Speaker 5: Is the Jedfish to UCLA thing for you? Is it

105
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,280
Speaker 5: even a story? Is it even something that you would

106
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:01,279
Speaker 5: remotely think could happen.

107
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 7: I would never say never, but I have never thought

108
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 7: that it was more likely than not. What I think

109
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 7: is happening and thought all along is they're going to

110
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:16,359
Speaker 7: use whatever they can use to put Fish in the

111
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 7: best position, either for other jobs or to.

112
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 6: Get a nice fat extension from the husky.

113
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 8: That made me think, John, can you think of a

114
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,479
Speaker 8: time when a coach that was not being fired, a

115
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 8: coach that was in demand, like Jed Fish, actually left

116
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:36,279
Speaker 8: a better situation to go to a worse football situation like,

117
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:37,960
Speaker 8: I just can't think.

118
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:42,359
Speaker 6: Of any I would have to give that some thought.

119
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 7: You know, there are there is a certain segment that

120
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 7: thinks UCLA can be a fantastic job, right, incredible campus,

121
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:55,359
Speaker 7: access to talent. They do have a rich history, but

122
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 7: there's some huge shortcomings to that job as well. I've

123
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:03,159
Speaker 7: always viewed it like this, for seventy percent of the

124
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 7: potential candidates, UCIL is a bad job.

125
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,480
Speaker 6: For thirty percent, it's a great job, right if.

126
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 7: You want to live at southern California, if you want

127
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 7: everything UCLA's got to offer.

128
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:16,599
Speaker 6: Jed likes sell in California. His wife does.

129
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 9: I don't.

130
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 6: I still don't think that he is going to end

131
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:20,840
Speaker 6: up at UCLA at all.

132
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, but you'll never say never.

133
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 5: Okay, Well, let me let me get one more on

134
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,479
Speaker 5: on on that, because there's a we We had a

135
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 5: conversation last segment with Greg and Mario on The Husky

136
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 5: Show John about extending him, and Greg's take is that, Look,

137
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,599
Speaker 5: I mean there's a lot of jobs open. He keeps winning,

138
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:38,599
Speaker 5: his name's going to get bigger and bigger. He goes

139
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 5: nine and two and then beats Oregon. He's ten and two,

140
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,840
Speaker 5: and you damn well, be sure that his name is

141
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:45,720
Speaker 5: going to be more appealing then in a month from

142
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,359
Speaker 5: now than it is now. And Greg was just asking,

143
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 5: is it time for you DUB to extend him now?

144
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 5: I will tell you that November of twenty two, before

145
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 5: the Apple Cup, eleven games into Kaelin de Bor's tenure

146
00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 5: at U DUB, Jen Cohen gave Calen a new contract.

147
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 5: I wish they would have given him another new contract

148
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 5: the next year, but that never happened, obviously because he

149
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 5: went to Alabama. So there's precedent for doing this even

150
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 5: earlier in a guy's career.

151
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 3: At U DUB.

152
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 5: They did it to Debor after eleven games. Should they

153
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 5: do it with Jedfish after a year and a.

154
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 3: Half right now?

155
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 7: I think that they should start having some conversations. And

156
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 7: I would not be surprised if pat Schun's already had

157
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 7: some of those conversations with Hendrickson, you know, and the

158
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 7: university obviously, because he'd have to get the president's sign

159
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 7: off on that.

160
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 6: It's an ongoing process.

161
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 7: And Chun knows the landscape and he understands the leverage

162
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 7: games and all that Washington will be proactive.

163
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 6: I would think I would be.

164
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 7: I would not be surprised at all if there are

165
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 7: already conversations happening. Whether there's an actual hard and fast

166
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 7: offer on his desk before the Oregon game, that I

167
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 7: don't know, But there also could very well be conversations

168
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 7: like we're gonna do this at the end of the season.

169
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 8: Yeah, well, we're coming off arguably his best performance as

170
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 8: a head coach at the University of Washington. Tell me

171
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 8: what you thought when you watched that game against Illinois.

172
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 6: Yeah, I thought they looked good. I did.

173
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 7: I don't want to read too much into it. Illinois

174
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 7: did lose at the fifty three points. I thought it

175
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 7: was Washington's it was. I thought it was Washington's most

176
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 7: complete game given the competition. I like, you know, it

177
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 7: was on offense, it was the Huskies, right, Boston had

178
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 7: he had to have at least ten receptions, right, Yes.

179
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 6: And Coleman.

180
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 7: I don't know total yardage, but he was getting five

181
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 7: six yards of carry and Williams looked comfortable in and

182
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 7: out of the pocket. That was Washington at its best offensively,

183
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 7: and they did well defensively too, so, but the thing is,

184
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,679
Speaker 7: can they do that against an Oregon They couldn't do

185
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 7: it against Michigan State or Michigan or Ohio State. Can

186
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:57,960
Speaker 7: they do it against the Ducks. That's where it all

187
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 7: comes down to the whole season is the Oregon game.

188
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, they should be nine to two for sure, perdue, UCLA, Wisconsin,

189
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,080
Speaker 5: all the all three game. I mean, any one of

190
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 5: them would be a huge disappointment to lose for you,

191
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:10,559
Speaker 5: dub no question, yeah bet.

192
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 6: And then they so they're playing maybe for a playoff.

193
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 3: Spot against the Ducks.

194
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 5: Well, let's talk about why they're not ranked, man. I

195
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 5: mean we've talked about this before. I'm not as worked

196
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 5: up about it as other people are. I think all

197
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 5: that takes care of itself at the end of the year.

198
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,680
Speaker 5: You dubbed, by the way, twenty twenty two was six

199
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 5: and two, and they were unranked, and they finished eighth

200
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 5: in the country. So you can move up quickly in

201
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 5: the poll. But you know my issue with the EIGHTP pole.

202
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,720
Speaker 5: We've had this conversation before on the air, But why

203
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 5: isn't you dub at six and two a ranked football

204
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 5: team right now?

205
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 6: I don't know. I mean I've got them in my ballot.

206
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 7: I think I have them twentieth or twenty first something

207
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,680
Speaker 7: right there. You can if you look at Washington and

208
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 7: it's not a great resume, right, They've lost the two

209
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 7: highest profile games, they played decisively. They didn't really get

210
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 7: a quality non conference win, uh, and they played a

211
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 7: lot of low level Big ten teams. But if you

212
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 7: compare Washington at six and two to teams that are

213
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:12,320
Speaker 7: in the ACC Big East on a big big twelve

214
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 7: and SEC that are six and two, they stack up

215
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,839
Speaker 7: pretty favorably. And that's how I came to the conclusion

216
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:20,200
Speaker 7: that they should be on my ballot.

217
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 6: I don't know why they are not ranked.

218
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 5: And now noted Husky hater John, you people remember that well.

219
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 4: And Notre Dame as well.

220
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,760
Speaker 8: I mean, Notre Dame's resume looks almost exactly like Washington

221
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 8: in their twelfth I mean, and it's only it's only

222
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:36,320
Speaker 8: because they started fifth in America.

223
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 4: So John Wilner joining us.

224
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 8: John, when the CFP rankings come out this year, how

225
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,440
Speaker 8: close have they mirrored the AP in the past, and

226
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 8: do you think they'll mirror the AP less this year?

227
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 8: Because I don't think there's ever been a year where

228
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 8: the AP pole has been ripped as bad by the

229
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 8: media as it has been this year.

230
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 7: Yeah, I don't know if it's been as ripped as much,

231
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:00,560
Speaker 7: but I don't think that the AP pole is much

232
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:05,240
Speaker 7: different in its construction than it is usually. And last

233
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,960
Speaker 7: year the CFP first the first rankings were very similar.

234
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 7: I don't have all the data in front of me,

235
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 7: but I did go through it a few weeks ago,

236
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 7: and a lot of teams were within one or two

237
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 7: spots of their AP ranking in the in the CFP

238
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 7: Top twenty five. It just it has an influence on

239
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 7: that room, at least in the first iteration of their rankings. Right,

240
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 7: they evolved week to week in a different manner than

241
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:37,440
Speaker 7: the AP poll does, but the first rankings are going

242
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 7: to look pretty similar.

243
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, John, The Huskies have a bye before they take

244
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 5: on Wisconsin, and I guess, you know, for us in

245
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 5: our ILK, you know, we're still kind of pre programmed

246
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 5: to think of Wisconsin as a pretty decent football program, right,

247
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:53,600
Speaker 5: you know, not elite, but pretty decent.

248
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 3: Their offense is dog crap.

249
00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:01,120
Speaker 5: They have not scored more than fourteen point since their

250
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 5: second game of the year, when they played Middle Tennessee

251
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 5: and hung forty two. They've only scored more than fourteen

252
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 5: points twice and the second time was against Miami of Ohio.

253
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:16,079
Speaker 5: This is a putrid offense that U DUB is gonna

254
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,319
Speaker 5: see in a week and a half in Madison. Are

255
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 5: you surprised that Luke Fickel is still there?

256
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:23,240
Speaker 3: Number one? And number two?

257
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 5: Is there any reason to think that you dub will

258
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:27,920
Speaker 5: not go to Madison and win that game decisively?

259
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:30,560
Speaker 7: I mean they could get it, you know, kind of

260
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 7: bogged down. I don't know what the weather will be,

261
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:34,560
Speaker 7: but they it could get bogged down. I mean Oregon

262
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,840
Speaker 7: struggled with them, right, I mean that was twenty one seven,

263
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,560
Speaker 7: you know, and I had thought Oregon would roll, but

264
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 7: Wisconsin's defense played very well. You know, if you're going there,

265
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 7: you never know. You cannot assume the Huskies are gonna

266
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,679
Speaker 7: mash them. I am a little surprised Fickle still there.

267
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:58,439
Speaker 7: But they're different from say PennState LSU. And one of

268
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 7: the ways they're different is the nil game there has

269
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 7: been substandard and their athletic director, you know, after they

270
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,440
Speaker 7: got they got shut out back to back weeks, right,

271
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 7: and their athletic director issued a statement of supporting Fickle

272
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 7: and basically saying we need more support. So I think

273
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 7: that it's easier for them to to, you know, justify

274
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:24,679
Speaker 7: keeping him through the season because of that element. Whereas

275
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 7: at Penn State or LSU or Florida, you know, they've

276
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 7: got all the resources, the coaches just aren't coaching the

277
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:31,680
Speaker 7: talent well enough.

278
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 3: They've scored seven games.

279
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's not but I'll tell you what. Their defense

280
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:40,440
Speaker 6: was good in Eugene. It was really good.

281
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:42,960
Speaker 8: Well, let's talk about the Ducks. I mean, how how

282
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:46,440
Speaker 8: should Duck fans feel about that game? No big deal

283
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 8: to look ahead game. We had our guy Hugh Millen

284
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,679
Speaker 8: come on and say, hey, Dante More just doesn't look

285
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 8: like the same Dante More he saw a month and

286
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 8: a half ago.

287
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 6: No, he doesn't. They they are in a lull.

288
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,440
Speaker 7: And you know that's not necessarily the worst thing in

289
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 7: the world. You don't want to be peaking in the

290
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:03,599
Speaker 7: middle of October. I think that kind of happened to

291
00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 7: Oregon last year, right so the.

292
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:08,559
Speaker 6: Indiana you know, I was at the Indiana game.

293
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,680
Speaker 7: They got punched in the face and they did not

294
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:16,439
Speaker 7: look very sharp on offense against Wisconsin either. If I'm

295
00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:19,000
Speaker 7: an Oregon fan, I'm a little concerned. You know, I'm

296
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 7: not in panic mode. They've got a pretty manageable schedule.

297
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 7: They do, they got to play sc and then they

298
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 7: get the Huskies. I'm not panicking. I certainly think you

299
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 7: got a great chance at the playoff.

300
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 6: But I'm a little I'm a little bit concerned. For sure,

301
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 6: there's no doubt about that.

302
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 5: Well, you mentioned it right there about the playoff. I mean,

303
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 5: let's let's say you dubgainst the nine and two and

304
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 5: all of a sudden, that Oregon game is significant, right,

305
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,080
Speaker 5: I mean, U Dub's got a shot if they do

306
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:46,520
Speaker 5: that and they win that game, and they went out

307
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 5: and they finished ten and two, what kind of odds

308
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 5: do you give you Dub on making the college football playoff?

309
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 2: Uh?

310
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 7: Is Notre Dame at ten and two? Because if Notre Dame,

311
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 7: it's everything changes. If Notre Dame is a huge piece

312
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 7: to all of this. If they've went out and they're

313
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 7: ten and two, they're gonna get in.

314
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 3: Yes, then all of a sudden they were all.

315
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 7: Of a sudden, it is six spots at large spots

316
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 7: instead of seven.

317
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 3: That's a big deal.

318
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,040
Speaker 7: If Notre Dame wins out, if Washington wins out and

319
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 7: Notre Dame wins out, I would give the Huskies like

320
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 7: a twenty five thirty chance to get in.

321
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 6: Okay, they will have one ranked win Oregon. No, you know,

322
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 6: the non.

323
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 7: Conference schedule will hurt them, but they'll be in the

324
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 7: mix against number four from the SEC, possibly number two

325
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 7: from the Big twelve. But really, Washington fans should be

326
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:42,360
Speaker 7: rooting for Notre Dame to lose.

327
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 5: All right, let's get to it. Last week, you've veered

328
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 5: off the path.

329
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 3: But it's okay.

330
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:49,840
Speaker 5: Yes, you know what it's like to have to pick

331
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 5: yourself up by the bootstraps and dust yourself off and

332
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 5: get back in the wind column. The windelarean walk the

333
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 5: wrong path a week ago. Let's see if we can

334
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 5: get the winde Laian back on the proper route to winning. Hammered, hammered.

335
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 5: Taking Ucla and the points hammered by.

336
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 6: The trend was not my friend.

337
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:11,080
Speaker 5: No, Ucla trained exploded and just flew off a cliff

338
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 5: against the Hoosiers last week.

339
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 3: So five and four on the air so far. Who

340
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 3: do you like this week?

341
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 10: John?

342
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:20,480
Speaker 6: I'll take the corn Huskers.

343
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 7: They I think they're getting six seven from USC somewhere

344
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 7: around there.

345
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:29,160
Speaker 3: They're given they are getting six and a half.

346
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 7: There we go, I'll take the corn Huskers at home.

347
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 7: I don't trust USC on the road. I don't trust

348
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:38,360
Speaker 7: Lincoln Riley with fourth coreter leads, and I think Nebraska's

349
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 7: pretty good.

350
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:39,520
Speaker 6: I'll take those.

351
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 7: But that, by the way, that's an important game for

352
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 7: Washington because both USC and Nebraska have two losses. They're

353
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 7: in that pool of two loss teams in the Big

354
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 7: Ten with Washington fighting for a playoff.

355
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 9: Bit.

356
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 7: I think us, I think Washington fans want USC to

357
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 7: win that game actually, because Nebraska's got an easier path

358
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 7: to ten and two right than USC does.

359
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:09,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, USC still Oregon, they got they got Yeah, no,

360
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:10,120
Speaker 5: no doubt, no doubt.

361
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,880
Speaker 7: All right, Man, Washington wants Washington wants all the two

362
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:15,520
Speaker 7: lost Big Ten teams to be losing.

363
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, love it all right, John, great stuff, you're the man.

364

368
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:34,360
Speaker 5: versus Babe Ruth debate at six pm tonight. I think

369
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:36,520
Speaker 5: we got to spend more time on this jetfish question,

370
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,119
Speaker 5: because the more games he wins, and it's not just

371
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,400
Speaker 5: the fact that he's winning games. He's six and two

372
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:45,159
Speaker 5: still looking for, you know, some bigger wins obviously, but

373
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 5: there's a lot of job openings in college football.

374
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:49,040
Speaker 3: That's the thing.

375
00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 5: It's not just him, it's the amount of opportunities that

Speaker 5: To just live in a world where he's a Johnny

397
00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:00,680

398
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:04,200
Speaker 5: explains himself out about six forty five. But Shoeo Tani,

399
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:06,920
Speaker 5: by the way, in the first inning of this game

400
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,199
Speaker 5: against the Blue Jays today, drew a walk.

401
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:10,919
Speaker 3: I just went back and looked at it.

402
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:15,399
Speaker 5: So the last thirteen at bats at Dodger Stadium in

403
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 5: the playoffs, Game four of the NLDS was in Philadelphia,

404
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 5: excuse me, in LA against the Phillies. Shoeo Tani struck

405
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 5: out in the bottom of the tenth in Game four

406
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 5: of a game the Dodgers eventually won, so they won

407
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,159
Speaker 5: the series three games to one. Since then, in his

408
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,360
Speaker 5: next thirteen at bats at Dodger Stadium, which is Game

409
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 5: three against Milwaukee, Game three of the World Series, and

410
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:41,480
Speaker 5: then Game four to nine, thirteen at bats, seven walks,

411
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:46,919
Speaker 5: five home runs, and two doubles from Shoho Tani, he

412
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:48,400
Speaker 5: is thirteen for thirteen.

413
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:49,280
Speaker 3: How about that.

414
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:51,720
Speaker 4: I mean, he's just he's transcended.

415
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 8: I mean, if we can, I'm totally fine arguing Babe

416
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 8: Ruth Shoeo Tani.

417
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 4: I can't argue anybody else.

418
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:02,480
Speaker 8: I just can't because nobody else is doing what he's

419
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:04,880
Speaker 8: doing right now and putting up zeros in the World

420
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:06,160
Speaker 8: Series on the mound two.

421
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:08,400
Speaker 5: Right, fourteen at bats, I was wrong. It's the last

422
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 5: fourteen seven walks, five home runs and two doubles.

423
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,920
Speaker 3: Man, he is fourteen for his last fourteen.

424
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 5: Every time he has gone to the plate in his

425
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 5: last fourteen at bats at home in.

426
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:20,919
Speaker 3: The playoffs, he has gotten on base.

427
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,920
Speaker 5: That is just stupid. Man, what's going on with this guy?

428
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:25,879
Speaker 5: And now he's in the mound obviously pitching for the Dolls.

429
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:26,760
Speaker 4: What's the thing we've seen?

430
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,400
Speaker 8: Game four is twenty four years ago with Barry Bonds, right,

431
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,679
Speaker 8: because Barry Bonds got walked all summer long, right, like

432
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:33,840
Speaker 8: all summer. You just watch Barry Bonds get four wide

433
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 8: ones all summer long. That's the only time other time

434
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:37,199
Speaker 8: I've ever seen something like this.

435
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, he Barry Bonds had a year what year was

436
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:43,120
Speaker 5: it where he drew like two hundred walks one season

437
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 5: at two one hundred and ninety eight and two thousand

438
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:48,879
Speaker 5: and two he got walked one hundred and ninety eight. No,

439
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 5: I'm sorry. Two thousand and four he walked two hundred

440
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:55,800
Speaker 5: and thirty two times. I mean that's like half your AB's, dude,

441
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:59,679
Speaker 5: that is ridiculous. Two hundred and thirty four times the

442
00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:02,800
Speaker 5: guy walked in one year. The most walked so Tani's

443
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:04,920
Speaker 5: had in one season was this year with one hundred

444
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:05,399
Speaker 5: and nine.

445
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 10: That's it.

446
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 5: Barry Bonds walked two and thirty freaking times. How is

447
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,680
Speaker 5: that even possible that you can walk that many times

448
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 5: in one year, two hund and thirty two. In two

449
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,120
Speaker 5: thousand and four, the guy had an on base percentage

450
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 5: of six oh nine.

451
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,280
Speaker 8: That's I think there's a very simple reason behind that shoe.

452
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:25,480
Speaker 8: Heey Otani has had Mookie Betts and Freddy Freeman behind him.

453
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:28,680
Speaker 8: Barry Bonds had maybe sometimes Jeff Kent, and I don't

454
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:30,800
Speaker 8: even know if he had Jeff Kent. That year he

455
00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 8: had nobody behind him, So they're like put them on,

456
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:34,679
Speaker 8: nobody's gonna drive you in.

457
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, and Jeff Kent's guy, what was this last year

458
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,680
Speaker 5: in Pittsburgh? That's going way back man Jeff Kent last

459
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:41,920
Speaker 5: year San Francisco was two thousand and two.

460
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,679
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, he wasn't even behind Barry Bonds and four that.

461
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 5: Was after Jeff Kent. All right, So the conversation about Jetfish.

462
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:51,159
Speaker 5: So look, clearly you're talking about a guy who was

463
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 5: what eleven and nine? Is that correct? As the Husky

464
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,720
Speaker 5: head coach so far? Six six and seven and six

465
00:21:56,800 --> 00:22:00,399
Speaker 5: and two? Yep, uh, he's twelve and nine. Sorry is

466
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,840
Speaker 5: the coach at you dub and he's seven and seven

467
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:07,120
Speaker 5: and fourteen games in the Big Ten. Overall, the resume,

468
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,680
Speaker 5: if you just look at numbers, doesn't look that impressive,

469
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:11,359
Speaker 5: but we have to put it into the context of

470
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,440
Speaker 5: what he inherited, correct course, which was a starbage dump.

471
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,159
Speaker 5: So the progress he's made with the offensive line, the

472
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:20,200
Speaker 5: progress he's made with this football team has been pretty

473
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,120
Speaker 5: damn amazing, no question about it.

474
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:23,960
Speaker 3: And there's a lot of jobs open.

475
00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 5: I mean, you know the list, Penn State, UCLA, Florida, LSU,

476
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,520
Speaker 5: Oklahoma State. There's a ton of jobs open in college football.

477
00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:33,960
Speaker 5: So the more jobs that are open, you kind of

478
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 5: do the whole you know, the two lists, right, you

479
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,760
Speaker 5: got one side is what Jed's accomplishing, and then you

480
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 5: compare that to how many jobs are open. The more

481
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 5: jobs are open, the more people are gonna be going

482
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 5: after more coaches, and Jed Fish's names certainly will be

483
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:50,160
Speaker 5: on that list for somebody. So I think there's two

484
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:53,160
Speaker 5: things here. Are we concerned about him leaving after this year?

485
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 3: Number one? Are we concerned about him taking demand with

486
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 3: him if he leaves? Number two?

487
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 5: And number three, would you consider giving him a contract

488
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:04,960
Speaker 5: extension right now to make it harder for him to

489
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:06,440
Speaker 5: take off?

490
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:09,200
Speaker 4: Am I concerned that he leaves?

491
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,959
Speaker 8: I mean it really, I've got no idea what the

492
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:16,440
Speaker 8: conversations with his wife are like, because I mean, that's

493
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:17,560
Speaker 8: nobody does huge.

494
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:19,200
Speaker 4: That's huge, right.

495
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:21,920
Speaker 8: If she doesn't want him to be here, then it's

496
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:23,880
Speaker 8: going to be he is going to try to run

497
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 8: for any opportunity, but you got to run for any

498
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,960
Speaker 8: opportunity that she's gonna want as well. And she gonna

499
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:32,040
Speaker 8: want to live in Arkansas, she gonna want to live

500
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:33,800
Speaker 8: in Oklahoma state.

501
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:37,199
Speaker 4: She gonna want to live I mean in Happy Valley.

502
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:38,719
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know.

503
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 8: I mean, Washington's a pretty damn Seattle's a pretty damn

504
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:42,840
Speaker 8: good place to live.

505
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:47,680
Speaker 4: So I mean, I wouldn't otherwise think that he would

506
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:48,920
Speaker 4: leave at the end of the season.

507
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:52,399
Speaker 8: But those personal relationship things, we've got no idea how

508
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:52,879
Speaker 8: to predict.

509
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 12: Let me give very very simple answers to all three questions, softie, Yes, yes,

510
00:23:57,920 --> 00:23:58,520
Speaker 12: and yes.

511
00:23:59,119 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 3: Yes.

512
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,560
Speaker 12: I'm concerned he's going to leave because he's having a

513
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,920
Speaker 12: great year, and I think that other schools see that

514
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,480
Speaker 12: be Demon Williams I think followed him, and he I

515
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:10,560
Speaker 12: think will follow him if the money is there, and

516
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 12: a lot of schools have a lot of money, right,

517
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 12: and then see if all if both of those are true, yes,

518
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 12: keep him here by any means necessary.

519
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 5: I think it's a great point Jackson about Demon. For

520
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 5: as bad as your Otani point was, this was the

521
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:26,160
Speaker 5: exact opposite. This is a great point that he's already

522
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 5: followed him once. Yep, yeah, left Arizona once. You know,

523
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 5: what's to say that he won't follow him again? And look,

524
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:36,600
Speaker 5: I mean, guys, look, do I sit around all day thinking,

525
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 5: oh my god, we're gonna No, of course not. You know,

526
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 5: I have really come to a point now with college

527
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:43,440
Speaker 5: football where I'm just taking this year by year. Man,

528
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,680
Speaker 5: I am accepting of the fact that this could change

529
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 5: dramatically every single year. Even if Jedfish stays. There's guys

530
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:53,000
Speaker 5: that could come, there's guys that could go, bring in

531
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:55,200
Speaker 5: some new faces, lose some old faces.

532
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:55,640
Speaker 3: Whatever.

533
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,680
Speaker 5: It's the changing landscape of college football. Go drive yourself

534
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 5: nuts worrying about it, because its reality. That's number one.

535
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 5: Number two. The problem partly with Jed Fish's situation at

536
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 5: Washington as the contract that Troy Dannen gave him.

537
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:11,720
Speaker 3: Number one, the buyout's way too low.

538
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:15,400
Speaker 5: It's only ten million dollars Dan Lanning's buyouts twenty million

539
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:19,160
Speaker 5: at Oregon. Number two. As Millan has pointed out many times,

540
00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 5: he's exactly right. The date of the buyout is way

541
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:23,960
Speaker 5: too early. Caitlyn de Moore took off and went to

542
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,920
Speaker 5: Alabama on January the fourteenth, which was six days after

543
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:31,119
Speaker 5: his buyout was over. It reset and dropped a couple

544
00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 5: of million bucks. Jed's November is January the eighth. That

545
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,360
Speaker 5: should be the end of January. Now, maybe he would

546
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:40,960
Speaker 5: never have agreed to that. I certainly would think that's

547
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 5: potentially true that Doug Hendrickson, his agent, and Jed's camp

548
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,960
Speaker 5: would never say yes to anything like that. We're not

549
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,000
Speaker 5: going to sit there and wait around until all the

550
00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 5: jobs are filled for this buyout to drop. But I

551
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:57,280
Speaker 5: think Troy Danon did not do udub any services with

552
00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 5: the contract details of his buyout, both financials and on

553
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 5: the calendar. So do I think there's a possibility that

554
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,240
Speaker 5: Jed Fish is going to coach four more games at

555
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:07,680
Speaker 5: Washington and walk out of here?

556
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:08,720
Speaker 3: Absolutely?

557
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:09,000
Speaker 10: I do.

558
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 4: Of course.

559
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:12,280
Speaker 5: Do I think there's a chance he comes back. Of

560
00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:13,680
Speaker 5: course there's a chance he comes back.

561
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 8: Well, the more years he stays, the more years that

562
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,960
Speaker 8: people he could prove a lot of people wrong.

563
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:20,440
Speaker 3: Because there's a lot of staying here.

564
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 8: Yes, because there's just a ton of Husky fans that

565
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:28,000
Speaker 8: are just assuming at the first opportunity he is gonna jump.

566
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,120
Speaker 5: Well, and I don't think that Husky fans are wrong

567
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:30,719
Speaker 5: to believe that.

568
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:32,280
Speaker 4: Look they are right.

569
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:33,159
Speaker 3: I'm a resident.

570
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 4: But he's got enough surprise, he's got an opportunity. He's

571
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 4: starting to.

572
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 8: Build something really really good here and it could be

573
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:40,120
Speaker 8: great next year.

574
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:42,840
Speaker 5: Could be Potentially he could also walk and blow it

575
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:45,160
Speaker 5: up and we're right back to square one. I mean,

576
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:47,639
Speaker 5: I I just think all those things have to be

577
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:49,439
Speaker 5: on the table, right all of them have to be

578
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 5: on the table. We're gonna break Brian Schmitzer. Oh boy,

00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 9: Well? Well, I can tell you what happened? Is we lost?

596
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:42,080
Speaker 9: How about that? There's a there's a nuts and bolts

597
00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 9: of it.

598
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:46,200

599
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:49,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, Well, are you more upset today? And maybe you're

600
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 5: not as upset as you were last night? Maybe you

601
00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,400
Speaker 5: were never upset. Maybe you're a positive guy, and we'll

602
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:53,920
Speaker 5: turn it around.

603
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 3: We'll be fine. But more, I guess.

604
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 5: Kind of bothered by the mischances of the ninety minutes

605
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 5: or what happened in the penalty kicks.

606
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:09,480
Speaker 10: So more bothered, I would say that's a good word

607
00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:13,080
Speaker 10: about the mischances, because you know, we had we had

608
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:15,200
Speaker 10: a lot of good not just the ones at the

609
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:17,520
Speaker 10: end of the game that you know, Masowski came on

610
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 10: and actually.

611
00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 9: Did really well.

612
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:22,040
Speaker 10: We pushed Jordan up front and kind of a right

613
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:27,080
Speaker 10: wing double center forward type of role and he was good.

614
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 10: But in the first half they cleared a you know,

615
00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:32,520
Speaker 10: we had a set piece and Christian got his head

616
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:33,880
Speaker 10: on it and the guy clears.

617
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:34,440
Speaker 9: It off the line.

618
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 10: Yamar on a on an Albert free kick, the combination

619
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,200
Speaker 10: play in the middle of the field, rock rocks.

620
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 9: All he has to do is hit the target.

621
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 10: I mean, he was under pressure by a couple of guys,

622
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:47,400
Speaker 10: but he hits the target.

623
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:48,959
Speaker 9: You know it's probably gonna go in.

624
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 10: I mean, we had two point four expected goals and

625
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:55,240
Speaker 10: you know we didn't.

626
00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:59,120
Speaker 9: We didn't get any, so you know that's on us. Uh,

627
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:00,400
Speaker 9: And then I.

628
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:04,240
Speaker 10: Was surprised, sofy I was really surprised, and look when

629
00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:07,680
Speaker 10: Alex didn't make his I kind of knew we were

630
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:10,680
Speaker 10: in trouble, But to miss three in.

631
00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 9: A PK shootout, that's not us.

632
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:16,080
Speaker 10: Last year against Houston we were dialed in.

633
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 9: I mean, we didn't miss We didn't miss any.

634
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:21,480
Speaker 10: Last year, So I was I was really cut of

635
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 10: shock at our penalties.

636
00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 8: How would you respond, coach to the folks that wanted

637
00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:27,520
Speaker 8: you to put Andrew Thomas in for Steph Fry on

638
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:28,080
Speaker 8: the shootout?

639
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:31,200
Speaker 9: Well, the same thing.

640
00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:34,480
Speaker 10: I mean last year in the second game in Houston,

641
00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:39,240
Speaker 10: Steph actually made two saves. And you know it's there's

642
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 10: there's no there's no goalkeeper controversy if your shooters aren't

643
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,280
Speaker 10: making them, aren't making them, so you know, it's just

644
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:49,000
Speaker 10: it's just it's plain and simple.

645
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 9: It's not a controversy. Yeah.

646
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:55,000
Speaker 5: Well, Brian Schmetzer again with US Saunders Minnesota, Leg two

647
00:29:55,080 --> 00:30:00,440
Speaker 5: of this series on Monday at LUMAN seven fifty five off?

648
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:03,480
Speaker 3: Is that right? Not eight o'clock seven point fifty.

649
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:06,160
Speaker 5: Five And they're on time in this league pre match

650
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:09,200
Speaker 5: show at seven thirty on the iHeart app. So let's

651
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:11,920
Speaker 5: let's let's stay on the penalty kick front. Can you

652
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:15,120
Speaker 5: just explain to us like we're morons, which we are,

653
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:19,160
Speaker 5: so it's easy. How do you decide who takes these kicks?

654
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:22,520
Speaker 5: What's that process like? And does it happen the same

655
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:23,440
Speaker 5: before every game?

656
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:28,000
Speaker 9: Yeah, it's similar to each game. Eat games a little

657
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 9: bit different.

658
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:33,040
Speaker 10: But we were we were practicing for the last two weeks,

659
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:34,560
Speaker 10: even before New York City.

660
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:36,480
Speaker 9: FC our last game, we were already.

661
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:39,200
Speaker 10: Practicing penalty kicks, and so I got a pretty good

662
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:42,040
Speaker 10: idea of who's good and who's.

663
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 9: Maybe not so good. And then it's kind of the same.

664
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:49,479
Speaker 10: You're going through the game and you're you know, you

665
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 10: have your list.

666
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:51,920
Speaker 9: In your head, and you go out there and you

667
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 9: talk to guys.

668
00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:57,680
Speaker 10: Individually and sometimes as a collective. You say, hey, you good,

669
00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:01,840
Speaker 10: you want one who wants one raise your hand, and

670
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:04,440
Speaker 10: you kind of get a feel for who's feeling confident

671
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:07,560
Speaker 10: in that moment. And I had, like I had like

672
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:11,040
Speaker 10: seven guys in the huddle softy saying they wanted to

673
00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 10: take kicks. And so, you know, Christian has been really good,

674
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:20,720
Speaker 10: Albert obviously there, Jackson, Alex the penalty kick in the

675
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 10: league's Cup final. Danny Lavas, you know, usually one hundred

676
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,400
Speaker 10: percent and then I still had.

677
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:34,200
Speaker 9: Jordan and Georgie, and you know, I mean I had

678
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:38,560
Speaker 9: zero problems with our lineup. We just didn't We.

679
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 8: Just didn't make the shots mentioned Danny Lava there. How

680
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 8: about the other Danny, Danny Muzovski's got sixteen goals for

681
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 8: you guys this year, and he had a chance at

682
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 8: the end, didn't get it. Buddy got himself into some

683
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:52,520
Speaker 8: dangerous spots. Does that make him more or less likely

684
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 8: to earn himself a starting spot on Monday?

685
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:59,080
Speaker 10: Yeah, Dick, that's the question we got to go through.

686
00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 10: I mean, look, we ateed a bunch of chances, even

687
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 10: just playing with Jordan's number nine, But when Masaske came on,

688
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:07,800
Speaker 10: it kind of changed the game. So, you know, the

689
00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 10: coaches and I have been working on the film already

690
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 10: a little bit. Today we'll make final determinations. And you know, look,

691
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 10: if we stick to a similar lineup the way we

692
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:22,520
Speaker 10: started and it's not going good or we're not creating chances,

693
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:26,080
Speaker 10: Danny's in for sure, but you know he might start

694
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 10: as well.

695
00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:26,960
Speaker 3: Yeah.

696
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:30,280
Speaker 5: Well, Brian Schmetzer game with US three two shootout lost

697
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 5: him Minnesota last night. Game two coming up on Monday, obviously,

698
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 5: and this is a Minnesota team that runs a let's

699
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 5: face it, gnarly disgusting, wretchet defensive system, right, and you've

700
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:45,360
Speaker 5: seen it. You've seen it three times this year, and

701
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:47,520
Speaker 5: it seems like you kind of keep getting better and

702
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,120
Speaker 5: better and better against it. I mean, what did you

703
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,120
Speaker 5: kind of see last night that maybe makes you feel

704
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:55,320
Speaker 5: like you can take an even bigger step coming up

705
00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:55,840
Speaker 5: on Monday.

706
00:32:57,120 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 10: Well, the frustrating part about the way they play Softie,

707
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 10: they didn't.

708
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:03,000
Speaker 9: They didn't they say it in the press.

709
00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:06,720
Speaker 10: I mean they want to deliberately slow the tempo down.

710
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 9: They want to take.

711
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,200
Speaker 10: The sting out of the game, even at home. I

712
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:13,920
Speaker 10: mean the goalkeeper was taking thirty forty seconds every goalkick.

713
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:17,480
Speaker 10: You know, they every free kick, they just push guys

714
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 10: up the field and take it long and they're long throwings.

715
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:23,680
Speaker 9: Look, that's who they are. We know who they are.

716
00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 9: So so the frustrate us.

717
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:29,840
Speaker 10: Yes, it make it difficult for the players, yes, but

718
00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:34,040
Speaker 10: the silver lining was again, you know, we created enough

719
00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:37,440
Speaker 10: chances to get at least one, and I think softly,

720
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:40,000
Speaker 10: if we get one at home, even if we get

721
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:42,560
Speaker 10: one on the road, that might be enough. Because they

722
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:43,920
Speaker 10: really didn't have too much.

723
00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:46,600
Speaker 9: I mean, they had the breakaway when when you know,

724
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:48,680
Speaker 9: Yaimar made a you know, maybe.

725
00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:51,040
Speaker 10: A silly decision at midfield and the guy broke in.

726
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:53,240
Speaker 9: That was their only chance.

727
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 4: How about Ryan Kent, coach available on Monday. I think.

728
00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:00,520
Speaker 10: Yeah, for sure, that was a that was the late

729
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:05,040
Speaker 10: minute scratch. I'd talked to him on Sunday's training actually

730
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:08,719
Speaker 10: the last training day before we left, and he just

731
00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:13,520
Speaker 10: felt a little week in his injured hamstring, and I figured,

732
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:17,359
Speaker 10: you know, we've got a three game series and if not,

733
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:19,600
Speaker 10: do or die, So I was going to leave him

734
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,560
Speaker 10: home and he got a good training session in. He'll

735
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,200
Speaker 10: have one more full week of training with the team,

736
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:29,399
Speaker 10: but he's definitely definitely going to be involved because it's

737
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:30,560
Speaker 10: a do or die game for us.

738
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:30,759
Speaker 9: Well.

739
00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:32,759
Speaker 5: And this is just to wrap it up, Brian, I

740
00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:34,920
Speaker 5: mean obviously you know this, but this is where soccer

741
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:37,440
Speaker 5: in the MLS is so much different than other sports

742
00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:39,640
Speaker 5: that have a three to five seven game series. That

743
00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:42,399
Speaker 5: typically in a three or five seven game series, you'd

744
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:45,120
Speaker 5: play a game and play the very next night, or

745
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:47,880
Speaker 5: maybe a day off and play two days later. You

746
00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:51,359
Speaker 5: get to sit here now and think about this for

747
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:56,600
Speaker 5: a week before in a potential elimination game on Monday night.

748
00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:59,080
Speaker 5: I mean, what is that like for you as a

749
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,440
Speaker 5: head coach. They're not going right back out there. You

750
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:03,240
Speaker 5: got to think about this for seven days.

751
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 10: Yeah, everybody wants to get back up on the horse

752
00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:09,719
Speaker 10: after a tough loss. And it was you know, it

753
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:11,440
Speaker 10: was a dut punch, you know, because I think we

754
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:13,399
Speaker 10: really outplayed them, and you know, we.

755
00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 9: Deserved more of the game.

756
00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:17,920
Speaker 10: But you know, again, like I said, they got us

757
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:20,200
Speaker 10: in the penalty kicks. So what we're going to do

758
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 10: is we're going to work a little bit more on

759
00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:25,799
Speaker 10: our penalty kick taking. We're going to review all the

760
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:29,759
Speaker 10: tactics of what worked in Minnesota, and then we're going

761
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:31,000
Speaker 10: to use the home crowd.

762
00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:33,360
Speaker 9: I think we're really good at home. You know. The

763
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:35,120
Speaker 9: only loss actually at home was.

764
00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:38,680
Speaker 10: These guys back right before the Club World Cup.

765
00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 9: But we've got a really strong home record all year.

766
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:42,160
Speaker 9: We've only lost once.

767
00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:43,520
Speaker 3: And we'll get them.

768
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:44,520
Speaker 9: We'll get them all Monday.

769
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:46,799
Speaker 5: Love it all right, Go get them, man, Appreciate this

770
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:49,520
Speaker 5: and hopefully the next time we talk you'll be tied up.

771
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:49,719
Speaker 10: Man.

772
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:50,279
Speaker 3: Go get them.

773
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:52,920
Speaker 9: Thanks coach, all right, take care guys.

774
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:54,920
