WEBVTT - 12/03/21 DPS Hour 1 Brady Quinn 0:00:00.680 --> 0:00:03.520 You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 0:00:03.560 --> 0:00:07.240 Sports Radio. We made it to a Friday somehow. Come 0:00:07.280 --> 0:00:09.560 on in, stay a while. Gang's all here. It's a 0:00:09.640 --> 0:00:13.239 meat Friday. In case you're wondering living vicariously through our 0:00:13.640 --> 0:00:20.200 trigger grills, Diablo grilled chicken thighs, balsamick, Brussels sprouts with bacon. 0:00:20.960 --> 0:00:25.639 Who has it better than us? Nobody? Play of the Day, 0:00:25.920 --> 0:00:28.840 poll questions, stat of the Day, all of that forthcoming. 0:00:29.040 --> 0:00:30.840 And now I know there's great games to talk about 0:00:30.880 --> 0:00:33.360 this weekend, and I know that we could recap what 0:00:33.440 --> 0:00:37.239 happened last night the Taysom Hill experiment, but I got 0:00:37.320 --> 0:00:41.400 a lead with the obvious. Brian Kelly was introduced to 0:00:41.520 --> 0:00:46.600 the LSU fan base at a basketball game. He is 0:00:46.680 --> 0:00:52.320 from Massachusetts. I think southern Massachusetts. So let's key in 0:00:52.440 --> 0:00:56.480 on the words southern Massachusetts because Brian Kelly has been 0:00:56.520 --> 0:01:02.480 in Louisiana for three days, four days, and it feels 0:01:02.520 --> 0:01:05.720 like he has absorbed part of the community. And this 0:01:05.800 --> 0:01:09.000 was part of his speech last night. Well that's a 0:01:09.040 --> 0:01:12.039 great way to get started. And I haven't even won 0:01:12.280 --> 0:01:19.800 all my games yet. It's a great night to be 0:01:19.880 --> 0:01:23.640 a Tiger. I'm here with my family, and we are 0:01:23.720 --> 0:01:27.319 so excited to be in the great state of Louisiana, 0:01:27.360 --> 0:01:33.560 but more partly to be with you great fans and 0:01:33.680 --> 0:01:37.160 to be part of what is going to be an 0:01:37.160 --> 0:01:43.560 incredible ride here at Louisiana State University. Wait, how long 0:01:43.600 --> 0:01:47.280 does it take to get an accent? All? Right? With? 0:01:47.480 --> 0:01:52.240 My family? Is great to be here, what we've got here, 0:01:54.400 --> 0:02:00.080 and I haven't even won all of my games. This 0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:02.800 this strikes me is when Madonna went to London and 0:02:02.920 --> 0:02:07.080 she came back with an English accent. When it's Paltrow. 0:02:07.800 --> 0:02:10.440 I mean, at least Madonna was married to Guy Ritchie. 0:02:10.480 --> 0:02:13.680 It took a couple of years. When it's Paltrow went 0:02:13.720 --> 0:02:15.960 to London for a weekend and came back with an 0:02:16.000 --> 0:02:22.400 accent my family, and I haven't even won all my games. 0:02:23.600 --> 0:02:27.240 Dad go, Dad govern did he? I don't think he said? 0:02:27.320 --> 0:02:33.960 Don Who knows what he's gonna sound like my next season? Hey, coach, 0:02:34.080 --> 0:02:38.200 I you know, Hey Dan, great to be on with you. 0:02:38.960 --> 0:02:43.640 Is he gonna be like Matthew McConaughey, Wow, that didn't 0:02:43.680 --> 0:02:46.600 take long. Yeah, Paul, Dan, here's how it's gonna sound 0:02:46.639 --> 0:02:52.919 it about a year. Well, damn, that's gonna has been 0:02:52.960 --> 0:02:56.600 a hell of a year here. So are you gonna 0:02:56.600 --> 0:02:58.760 sound like ed Orsi? That's going to be a long 0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:07.799 and a lot of spicy food and gold Tigers, Gold Tigers. Oh, 0:03:07.800 --> 0:03:10.320 I couldn't resist. I'm like, oh my god, that's the 0:03:10.400 --> 0:03:13.880 lead of the show. Ryan Kelly's got a Southern polly. 0:03:14.080 --> 0:03:18.760 It's southern Massachusetts. It's south central Massachusetts, Everett, mass It's 0:03:18.760 --> 0:03:21.440 not the southern tip of the state down yonder. There's 0:03:21.440 --> 0:03:24.320 a movie called Fletch Lives. It's with Chevy Chase and 0:03:24.400 --> 0:03:27.480 where he goes back to Louisiana and he inherits a 0:03:27.639 --> 0:03:30.720 farm from his mom and are a relative and he 0:03:30.760 --> 0:03:33.200 does a fake Southern accent in parts of the movie. 0:03:33.800 --> 0:03:39.040 That's out. That's up. I kept going, wait, you know, 0:03:39.120 --> 0:03:43.120 sometimes if I'm in Ireland, I can sort of sound 0:03:43.160 --> 0:03:47.480 a little more Irish, but it's not. When I went 0:03:47.520 --> 0:03:50.800 to Australia to do a story on Sean Bradley, I 0:03:50.840 --> 0:03:54.560 didn't come home with an Australian accent. Or when I 0:03:54.600 --> 0:03:57.200 went to Rio for the Olympics, or when I went 0:03:57.240 --> 0:03:59.800 to London for the Olympics, or I went to Sochi 0:04:00.040 --> 0:04:04.840 for the Olympics, I didn't come back with accents. My family. 0:04:05.920 --> 0:04:11.480 They haven't even won all my games. Although if he wins, 0:04:11.560 --> 0:04:14.320 then nobody's gonna care about that. They're gonna be like, 0:04:14.360 --> 0:04:16.960 hell yeah, he's one of us. Yeah see, I can't 0:04:16.960 --> 0:04:20.120 wait for him to start dropping like the Southern expressions, 0:04:20.120 --> 0:04:23.800 like that's fun there than a frog hair split four ways? 0:04:23.880 --> 0:04:29.000 You see? What better than chicken in the sack? I'd 0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:34.440 like to have some sweet cheap please car coach that 0:04:34.640 --> 0:04:37.000 fellow that he thinks the song comes up to hear him. Bro, 0:04:38.960 --> 0:04:43.839 what was the doc Hollywood with Michael J. Fox? You 0:04:43.920 --> 0:04:46.680 know where he's you know, on his way to LA 0:04:46.839 --> 0:04:49.040 and he stops in in some little po dunk town 0:04:49.720 --> 0:04:53.320 and uh, you know everybody got them accents Like that, 0:04:54.360 --> 0:04:58.600 he starts picking up the accents a little bad. I mean, 0:04:58.640 --> 0:05:01.000 I lived in Atlanta a couple years. I never had 0:05:01.040 --> 0:05:05.120 an accent. Y'all didn't have an accent. No I didn't, No, 0:05:05.200 --> 0:05:09.720 I did not. I couldn't resist. Welcome to the program, 0:05:09.839 --> 0:05:12.440 already in progress.

You want to think 0:05:45.720 --> 0:05:49.360 positive things. We've got to meet Friday here. The great 0:05:49.400 --> 0:05:52.159 Brady Quinn, who's not happy with Brian Kelly in the 0:05:52.160 --> 0:05:53.720 way he left Notre Dame is going to join us, 0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:56.080 coming up here at a moment, and we have a 0:05:56.120 --> 0:05:58.400 pull question, Play of the day, stat of the day. 0:05:58.520 --> 0:06:02.680 It's official, Marcus Freeman is the new Notre Dame head coach. 0:06:03.320 --> 0:06:06.400 Notre Dame just announced that. So all the great work 0:06:06.440 --> 0:06:08.919 behind the scenes with a lot of these college football 0:06:08.920 --> 0:06:12.800 insiders to bring you the news there that this was 0:06:12.800 --> 0:06:14.839 going to happen. Tommy Reese will stay on as the 0:06:14.880 --> 0:06:18.240 offensive coordinator. Yes, point yeah, this is exciting. Marcus Freeman, 0:06:18.240 --> 0:06:20.719 who I think is originally from Ohio, but he's really 0:06:20.800 --> 0:06:22.839 really embracing the fighting Irish culture. We have a a little 0:06:22.839 --> 0:06:25.160 audio from him just getting the job. Oh okay, God Dan, 0:06:25.240 --> 0:06:29.279 I'm happy to accept it. Wow. Hitting coaching position here 0:06:29.279 --> 0:06:33.279 for the fighting Irish. Wow, he's embracing it. That didn't 0:06:33.279 --> 0:06:38.920 take long. Okay, I like it. Actual sound. Oh it's not, 0:06:38.360 --> 0:06:42.119 that's not. Oh you couldn't tell you tricked me again? 0:06:42.440 --> 0:06:47.719 Then we should be in a happy mood. It's a Friday, right, PAULI. 0:06:47.839 --> 0:06:52.920 Of course usually isn't. He's got a mean spirited poll question, Paula, 0:06:52.960 --> 0:06:55.960 you want to unleash your mean spirited poll question. We're 0:06:56.040 --> 0:06:59.400 seven minute We're eight minutes into this program today, and 0:06:59.440 --> 0:07:03.320 we're skewing mean. I preface this by saying no offense. 0:07:04.040 --> 0:07:06.839 And I'm a fan of Taysom Hill as a football player. 0:07:07.440 --> 0:07:10.760 He's a very interesting and impactful football Just give us 0:07:10.800 --> 0:07:13.760 the poll question. What is the worst sports experiment ever? 0:07:13.920 --> 0:07:17.240 Taysom Hill at quarterback? The XFL Fox is glowing puck 0:07:17.320 --> 0:07:21.320 with hockey, Michael Jordan playing baseball or other. I'm laying 0:07:21.320 --> 0:07:25.000 out thick because wow, wow, I don't think this is 0:07:25.000 --> 0:07:29.320 the right move as a franchise. Well, okay, either commit 0:07:29.360 --> 0:07:36.600 to Taysom Hill or not now you've committed financially, commit 0:07:36.640 --> 0:07:40.400 to him. That's it. I know he's been in concussion protocol, 0:07:40.560 --> 0:07:43.880 but just commit to him. See if you have Lamar 0:07:44.000 --> 0:07:48.560 Jackson light, you got a fascinating talent there. Here is 0:07:48.640 --> 0:07:51.680 Taysom Hill assessing what went wrong last night in the 0:07:51.720 --> 0:07:55.480 lass to the Cowboys. I'm not gonna rush to any conclusions, 0:07:55.800 --> 0:07:58.520 having not seen the tape or anything, but I feel 0:07:58.560 --> 0:08:00.600 like we did some things really well tonight and then 0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:03.600 we did some things really poorly. Obviously, it's tough to 0:08:03.640 --> 0:08:05.360 win a game. We can turn the ball at four times. 0:08:05.960 --> 0:08:09.080 That's really what jumps out Coming into the season. The 0:08:09.080 --> 0:08:11.560 big concern with the Cowboys was going to be their defense, 0:08:11.600 --> 0:08:13.880 because they certainly struggled on that side of the ball 0:08:13.920 --> 0:08:17.520 in twenty twenty, and they were hoping that Micah Parsons 0:08:18.080 --> 0:08:22.800 coming in. You hire defensive coordinator Dan Quinn, You've got 0:08:22.800 --> 0:08:26.040 a really good cornerback and Trayvon Diggs, and you're thinking, 0:08:26.400 --> 0:08:28.920 if you get any kind of defense, Dallas with that 0:08:29.040 --> 0:08:31.720 offense is going to be a Super Bowl contender. And 0:08:31.800 --> 0:08:35.920 they might be, but the defense feels like it's holding 0:08:36.080 --> 0:08:38.240 up its end of the bargain and the offense is 0:08:38.280 --> 0:08:41.280 not you know, and I'm not making this out to 0:08:41.320 --> 0:08:45.080 be this is doomsday defense in Dallas because they've struggled. 0:08:45.559 --> 0:08:49.160 But you do have two great players on the other 0:08:49.200 --> 0:08:51.120 side of the ball. You've got a guy who can 0:08:51.160 --> 0:08:54.280 get after the quarterback and you have a shutdown corner. 0:08:54.920 --> 0:09:00.840 They're young, they're inexpensive. And with Micah Parsons there, you know, 0:09:00.880 --> 0:09:04.400 what's going to be curious is how he is labeled 0:09:05.160 --> 0:09:08.720 because he came in as a linebacker. You want to 0:09:08.720 --> 0:09:12.800 be an edge rusher because your salary is comparable to 0:09:12.880 --> 0:09:16.920 your position, and if you're an edge rusher, now all 0:09:16.960 --> 0:09:20.120 of a sudden, you go, I want t J want money. 0:09:20.200 --> 0:09:23.400 That's how this works. As a linebacker, who are you 0:09:23.400 --> 0:09:29.200 going to be compared to Bobby Wagner, Luke Keikley, even 0:09:29.200 --> 0:09:32.280 though he didn't play anymore, Like, that's not where you 0:09:32.320 --> 0:09:37.079 make your money as an edge rusher, you do. But 0:09:37.160 --> 0:09:41.199 Michael Parsons was fascinating because there were concerns with him 0:09:41.200 --> 0:09:45.720 at Penn State. Great athlete, nobody questioned that size wise, 0:09:45.880 --> 0:09:49.560 there was some concerns. But you come in to the 0:09:49.640 --> 0:09:52.959 NFL as a linebacker and people at the time said, well, 0:09:52.960 --> 0:09:55.400 you don't spend a first round pick on a linebacker, 0:09:56.320 --> 0:09:59.319 but he was not. This is where you draft somebody 0:09:59.320 --> 0:10:02.000 and you say, oh, you're a linebacker. No, you're drafting 0:10:02.000 --> 0:10:05.440 a football player. That's who he is. Because if you 0:10:05.559 --> 0:10:09.600 look back, you know, Troy Polamalu was just a football player. 0:10:10.000 --> 0:10:13.959 Ed Reid just a football player. Bryan Rlocker played safety 0:10:13.960 --> 0:10:17.680 in college. You're drafting guys because they're football players. And 0:10:17.720 --> 0:10:20.920 Micah Parsons is just that he's a great football player. 0:10:21.760 --> 0:10:25.400 It's not here's your designation, you're a linebacker. I always 0:10:25.440 --> 0:10:29.560 go back, you know, Derek Thomas, Derrick Thomas was always 0:10:29.559 --> 0:10:34.240 fascinating because he was a great player, athletic, played for 0:10:34.280 --> 0:10:38.720 the Kansas City Chiefs, and he just had an inatability 0:10:38.760 --> 0:10:41.000 to get to the quarterback. And I don't know if 0:10:41.040 --> 0:10:45.400 somebody said, well, he's an edge rusher, he's a linebacker. 0:10:45.800 --> 0:10:49.720 Lawrence Taylor didn't have a position. Lawrence Taylor was this 0:10:49.920 --> 0:10:51.680 is what I want to do on this play. And 0:10:51.800 --> 0:10:56.240 Micah Parsons is that kind of player. He is a disruptor. 0:10:56.640 --> 0:11:00.480 And when your guy is faster than anybody on their 0:11:00.520 --> 0:11:04.160 side of the ball, that's a real distinct weapon. And 0:11:04.200 --> 0:11:06.960 then you throw in Diggs who has nine interceptions this year. 0:11:07.480 --> 0:11:10.360 Those are the kind of players who can keep you 0:11:10.440 --> 0:11:13.920 in games or win you games in the playoffs. The 0:11:14.040 --> 0:11:18.120 offense is still what concerns me because that should be 0:11:18.280 --> 0:11:22.360 a great offense, and I didn't think it was a 0:11:22.360 --> 0:11:25.640 great offense without those four interceptions. You know, we might 0:11:25.679 --> 0:11:28.240 be talking about something different here. Dak is still not 0:11:28.320 --> 0:11:31.760 played great. I've said for a long time. Pollard to 0:11:31.840 --> 0:11:34.199 me makes more sense than Zeke does. But they signed 0:11:34.240 --> 0:11:37.760 him up to that second contract. Pollard is really good, 0:11:38.520 --> 0:11:42.480 But you got Ceedee lamb Amari Cooper. Now's the time 0:11:42.559 --> 0:11:45.360 where you got a couple of divisional games coming up, 0:11:45.480 --> 0:11:48.680 Giants and the Washington football team. I wouldn't be surprised 0:11:48.720 --> 0:11:50.520 if they get picked off by one of those two 0:11:50.559 --> 0:11:55.640 teams coming up. But now you're you're trying to figure 0:11:55.679 --> 0:11:58.400 this team out, and we're trying to figure out everybody, 0:11:58.480 --> 0:12:00.839 Like Green Bay has been injured. How good are they 0:12:01.920 --> 0:12:06.520 Tampa Bay? Now? No Antonio Brown suspended for three games 0:12:06.520 --> 0:12:12.400 for lying about his vaccination card Arizona. You' all in 0:12:12.480 --> 0:12:15.520 on Arizona. The Rams got them figured out, Like there's 0:12:15.600 --> 0:12:19.600 questions with everybody here, certainly in the NFC. But Dallas 0:12:19.640 --> 0:12:23.320 should be great. I mean, you don't have that much 0:12:23.360 --> 0:12:27.240 competition in the division. I mean, is Washington capable of 0:12:27.320 --> 0:12:33.400 being good, yes, the Giants capable, Yeah, but you got 0:12:33.400 --> 0:12:35.800 to dominate and they should be having a home field 0:12:35.840 --> 0:12:39.760 advantage and they're not going to and then you're going 0:12:39.840 --> 0:12:42.960 to be on the road, and then that just sort 0:12:43.000 --> 0:12:46.120 of exacerbates what your issues are. You don't want to 0:12:46.120 --> 0:12:52.440 go to Green Bay. You don't not in January late January, 0:12:52.920 --> 0:12:55.880 and that's where Dallas could be headed. But I'm watching 0:12:55.920 --> 0:12:57.800 this team and I keep thinking, what are they missing? 0:12:58.360 --> 0:13:02.640 Got everything they do offensively. I mean I'm not the 0:13:02.640 --> 0:13:06.240 biggest Mike McCarthy fan. Dan quinn stepped in as the 0:13:06.320 --> 0:13:12.320 head coach, but that team should be great with these 0:13:12.320 --> 0:13:15.480 two defensive players and that offense, they should be great 0:13:15.600 --> 0:13:19.319 and they're not. And I think that's that's what's surprising. 0:13:19.559 --> 0:13:25.920 Do you know the draft comp for Michael Parsons, a 0:13:25.960 --> 0:13:32.000 fellow linebacker played on the West Coast college wise, Yes, boy, 0:13:32.280 --> 0:13:34.960 I was gonna go Roquan Smith when he's at Georgia. Okay, 0:13:35.280 --> 0:13:42.040 speed guy, Okay, all right, Miles Jack Well it's Jack Ucla. 0:13:42.320 --> 0:13:45.240 That was the comp Yeah, mclub Miles Jack six and 0:13:45.240 --> 0:13:48.040 a half sacks in six years, so I don't think 0:13:48.040 --> 0:13:53.280 he's already surpassed Miles Jack. Yep, he's got what ten 0:13:53.360 --> 0:13:55.959 sacks already this year. Miles Jack's not making it about himself. 0:13:56.000 --> 0:13:58.079 He's a team guy. That's why I like that. Okay, 0:13:58.280 --> 0:14:00.760 all right, all right, Player the day, A stat of 0:14:00.760 --> 0:14:03.280 the day. What's the poll question? McLevin? I put up 0:14:03.320 --> 0:14:08.199 police mean snarky one. We're a sports experiment. Wow, that's 0:14:08.240 --> 0:14:11.280 not fair to Taysom Hill. Well, Taysom Hill ran for 0:14:11.320 --> 0:14:14.600 one hundred yards yesterday. They should use him like Cordell Patterson. 0:14:14.720 --> 0:14:17.400 Cordelle Patterson does not throw the ball. He's a fantastic 0:14:17.440 --> 0:14:20.000 all purpose player, but they don't try to force him 0:14:20.040 --> 0:14:22.680 into a quarterback. They're trying to force Taysom Hill in 0:14:22.680 --> 0:14:25.520 a quarterback, and he's not bad. But rarely can you 0:14:25.520 --> 0:14:28.120 win a super Bow with a not bad, questionable decision 0:14:28.160 --> 0:14:31.480 making Quarterbacksvin, I was gonna say, by the way, I 0:14:31.560 --> 0:14:34.760 Paully rejected my other poll, oh meanly he I said, 0:14:34.760 --> 0:14:36.680 if you could only watch one of these college games 0:14:36.680 --> 0:14:40.440 George Alabama, Michigan, IOWA, Cincinnati, Houston, Oklahoma, Saint Baylor Pitt 0:14:40.440 --> 0:14:42.280 Wake for us. He said he's not doing that, he's 0:14:42.320 --> 0:14:45.440 not going to watch this one. Well, no, but that 0:14:45.440 --> 0:14:48.720 that's not part of this the answer you can watch one, 0:14:49.200 --> 0:14:51.480 but that like sounds like torture, like not being able 0:14:51.520 --> 0:14:54.160 to see all these games, right, I might take pick 0:14:54.360 --> 0:14:57.320 Pitt versus Wake, believe it or not. Like that to 0:14:57.400 --> 0:15:01.840 me is going to be fun and and Michigan Iowa 0:15:01.960 --> 0:15:07.160 could be a slug fest. Crooked numbers in there. Houston Cincinnati, 0:15:08.280 --> 0:15:12.480 you know, Houston's fun, but Cincinnati can't let off the 0:15:12.480 --> 0:15:18.920 accelerator here, Um Baylor, Oaklhoma's state a little bit, even 0:15:19.000 --> 0:15:25.000 Oregon Utah Tonight, I'm interested in. It doesn't mean anything. Yes, 0:15:25.120 --> 0:15:27.440 ton as fun as some of the games are, and 0:15:27.480 --> 0:15:29.040 I'm going to watch at least some of them. In part. 0:15:29.360 --> 0:15:31.200 You gotta go with something where there's something on the line, 0:15:31.200 --> 0:15:34.120 where they're gonna make these final rankings noon Sunday, and 0:15:34.480 --> 0:15:36.720 it's gotta be one of the which one is tough 0:15:36.760 --> 0:15:39.120 to take George Alabama, I know we're the same teams 0:15:39.120 --> 0:15:40.960 and all that kind of argument, and it may not 0:15:41.040 --> 0:15:42.720 end up being the best game of all them, but 0:15:42.760 --> 0:15:45.560 that is still the juiciest, whether we like it or not. Yeah, 0:15:45.600 --> 0:15:49.320 but if Georgia wins, you're going okay, like, what's so? 0:15:49.360 --> 0:15:52.800 Then you're going to did Alabama lose in a way 0:15:52.840 --> 0:15:54.720 that will keep them in the final four? I guess 0:15:54.720 --> 0:15:56.880 some of it's the hype of the George Georgia loses. 0:15:56.960 --> 0:16:01.680 George is in the final four for me, like Cincinnati, 0:16:02.040 --> 0:16:04.160 Do I expect them to be Houston? Yes, they should. 0:16:04.440 --> 0:16:08.600 Michigan against Iowa is tricky, Pitt and Wake for us, 0:16:08.600 --> 0:16:12.800 that's just entertainment purposes. By the way, the current Heisman odds, 0:16:12.840 --> 0:16:15.400 I'll have those for you. And the guy that I'm 0:16:15.480 --> 0:16:19.520 voting for, well thinking of voting for, is not in 0:16:19.560 --> 0:16:23.840 the one, two, three, four, top six. We'll take a break. 0:16:24.000 --> 0:16:26.840 Brady Quinn will join us. We'll see if he's still 0:16:26.920 --> 0:16:29.880 upset at Brian Kelly for the way he left South 0:16:29.960 --> 0:16:33.960 Ben back after this and the Dan Patrick Show.

I got Heisman odds. Then we'll talk to 0:17:26.200 --> 0:17:31.240 Brady Quinn, Bryce Young is your favorite? Then it's c J. Stroud, 0:17:32.200 --> 0:17:36.280 Matt Corrall, Kenny Pickett, Aiden Hutchinson, he's the defensive end 0:17:36.320 --> 0:17:41.720 at Michigan, Kenneth Walker running back at Michigan State. Nobody 0:17:41.800 --> 0:17:45.480 from the Georgia defense is mentioned. Paulie. They don't have 0:17:45.600 --> 0:17:48.120 an alpha guy like it, remember the David Pollock type 0:17:48.240 --> 0:17:51.120 year or a LaVar Arrington. They don't have a guy 0:17:51.160 --> 0:17:55.879 with crazy stats and crazy image but is there anybody 0:17:55.920 --> 0:18:01.480 better than Davis? Jordan Davis. He's six six, three forty 0:18:01.520 --> 0:18:03.680 and they say he's the key to their whole defense 0:18:03.680 --> 0:18:09.280 because you can't get around him. That's who I'm leaning towards. 0:18:09.760 --> 0:18:12.920 Because who has been the most important player in college 0:18:12.920 --> 0:18:17.760 football or unit? Then I have to factor that in 0:18:17.840 --> 0:18:21.600 that Georgia has. The reason why they're probably going to 0:18:21.680 --> 0:18:24.760 play for a national championship is their defense. Yeah, Polly 0:18:24.840 --> 0:18:27.560 the Heisman favorite. It's very weird. Bryce Young could lose 0:18:27.680 --> 0:18:29.280 and it's hard to win a Heisman after a loss 0:18:29.280 --> 0:18:32.360 on national TV. C J. Shroud's not playing State, Matt 0:18:32.400 --> 0:18:35.639 Carroll's not playing old Miss Kenny Pickett. No one really 0:18:35.640 --> 0:18:37.800 cares about nationally the offense. He'll do great in the draft. 0:18:38.040 --> 0:18:40.960 Aidan Hutchinson had a monster game against Ohio State and 0:18:41.080 --> 0:18:45.840 led his team to the two spot the defensive end 0:18:45.880 --> 0:18:49.880 for Michigan. Yeah, he could be in there. Yeah, this 0:18:49.920 --> 0:18:54.000 guy was finished third, I think in the Heisman balloting 0:18:54.359 --> 0:18:58.280 two thousand and six, Troy Smith won, Darren McFadden and 0:18:58.280 --> 0:19:02.840 then Brady Quinn, the former Notre Dame fighting irishman joining 0:19:02.880 --> 0:19:04.439 us on the program. What did you get for being 0:19:04.480 --> 0:19:09.439 a finalist for the Heisman Trophy, Brady a trip to 0:19:09.800 --> 0:19:12.639 New York and I got to sit there for a 0:19:12.640 --> 0:19:15.080 while and watch someone else get the reward. Now it 0:19:14.920 --> 0:19:17.359 was Look, it was a good experience. You got to 0:19:17.359 --> 0:19:19.040 be around a lot of the other past grades in 0:19:19.080 --> 0:19:22.280 college football. It's obviously an honor just to be in 0:19:22.359 --> 0:19:25.119 consideration for it, and that's you know, that's gonna be 0:19:25.160 --> 0:19:27.880 the interesting part about this year, in listening to your discussion, 0:19:28.080 --> 0:19:30.960 is you know, there really should be probably six or 0:19:31.000 --> 0:19:34.160 seven guys that go. You know, they base it technically 0:19:34.200 --> 0:19:37.199 on the balloting or voting and that point system that 0:19:37.240 --> 0:19:39.440 they have and how many guys get first place, second place, 0:19:39.480 --> 0:19:42.159 third place votes. But the reality is it's hard to 0:19:42.200 --> 0:19:44.560 think that there's not going to be a you know, 0:19:44.600 --> 0:19:47.840 there's probably be hard to distinguish between who you know 0:19:47.920 --> 0:19:50.320 should be the guy this year. I think if you're 0:19:50.359 --> 0:19:54.080 looking at the best quarterback play, that would be Bryce 0:19:54.160 --> 0:19:56.720 Young in my opinion. Um, I think he's been the 0:19:56.760 --> 0:19:59.320 best quarterback from wire to wire. Even though last week's 0:19:59.320 --> 0:20:02.000 game he struggled lightly. However, he did come up when 0:20:02.000 --> 0:20:05.440 they needed it the most. Kenny Pickett's the most valuable 0:20:05.800 --> 0:20:08.680 to his team. I don't know that pits anywhere close 0:20:08.680 --> 0:20:11.040 to playing an ACC championship game. If he's not there, 0:20:11.520 --> 0:20:13.840 you could probably make a case for him. You know, 0:20:13.840 --> 0:20:16.399 I heard you talking about Jordan Davis, and that's probably 0:20:16.400 --> 0:20:19.040 the downside of playing that position. Is as good as 0:20:19.080 --> 0:20:21.040 you can be as a defensive tackle. When you play 0:20:21.040 --> 0:20:23.520 on the interior of the D line, it's everyone else 0:20:23.560 --> 0:20:26.760 around you who's more often than not going to be 0:20:26.800 --> 0:20:29.960 able to have success since you. But you're still doing 0:20:29.960 --> 0:20:32.120 your job and your dominant but it just doesn't get 0:20:32.119 --> 0:20:34.840 appreciated the same way as Aidan Hutcheson, for example, who 0:20:35.080 --> 0:20:36.600 you can make the case as the best player in 0:20:36.640 --> 0:20:39.480 college football with the way he's played this year as 0:20:39.520 --> 0:20:42.159 a defensive end and in their biggest moment. You know, 0:20:42.359 --> 0:20:45.520 last week he had a Heisman moment as far as 0:20:45.560 --> 0:20:48.840 three sacks fifteen pressures, which is unheard of. I mean, 0:20:48.880 --> 0:20:50.879 you can make the case that he's as deserving of 0:20:50.920 --> 0:20:57.960 it as anyone. Let me let me start with Bryan 0:20:58.119 --> 0:21:03.280 Kelly departure. I know that you being a notre dame 0:21:03.320 --> 0:21:06.960 fighting Irishman. How could he have done it differently, better, 0:21:07.840 --> 0:21:12.520 more tactfully. He could have waited. He literally could have 0:21:12.560 --> 0:21:15.439 just waited a week. If LSU wanted Brian Kelly that 0:21:15.520 --> 0:21:18.639 bad or let me put it this way, if coach 0:21:18.760 --> 0:21:22.880 Kelly wanted to leave Notre Dame, the most tactful way 0:21:22.880 --> 0:21:25.120 he could have done it is say to LSU, look, 0:21:25.440 --> 0:21:28.000 I want to come there, you want me, Let's just 0:21:28.040 --> 0:21:31.040 put push this thing off a week because if we 0:21:31.119 --> 0:21:33.080 have a chance to win and it works out this 0:21:33.119 --> 0:21:35.919 weekend where they're actually in the college football playoffs, I 0:21:35.960 --> 0:21:38.040 want to go finish this job and try to coach 0:21:38.080 --> 0:21:41.120 this team to a national championship. And you should want 0:21:41.160 --> 0:21:43.480 that because you should want me to do the same 0:21:43.520 --> 0:21:47.240 thing if I'm in that position at LSU. And the 0:21:47.280 --> 0:21:50.520 reason why I say that is in part for the players, 0:21:50.960 --> 0:21:54.320 the coaches, everything that he was able to accomplish during 0:21:54.320 --> 0:21:56.280 his time at Notre Dame. That's just the proper way 0:21:56.320 --> 0:22:00.320 to do it. And also though for LSU, because he's 0:22:00.320 --> 0:22:03.439 already done this before to Cincinnati, he built them up, 0:22:03.520 --> 0:22:06.200 got them to a New Year's six game, and then 0:22:06.320 --> 0:22:09.080 left before that bowl game. And then now he's become 0:22:09.119 --> 0:22:11.040 the all time winning his head coach in Notre Dame 0:22:11.400 --> 0:22:13.679 and left again at a time where you're going you 0:22:13.720 --> 0:22:15.240 could have just waited a week to see if they're 0:22:15.240 --> 0:22:17.040 playing for it, and if they'll look if the team 0:22:17.119 --> 0:22:18.480 was playing for a New Year's six and they don't 0:22:18.520 --> 0:22:20.440 make it in still be it. No one's gonna hold 0:22:20.440 --> 0:22:23.800 it against you. But now I kind of Warren LSU fans. 0:22:24.160 --> 0:22:25.800 You know, he's poked around and wanting to coach in 0:22:25.800 --> 0:22:28.240 the NFL at some point, you know what would exclude 0:22:28.320 --> 0:22:30.399 him from having a couple of great seasons at LSU, 0:22:30.480 --> 0:22:33.080 which you know they'll probably have some you know, have success, 0:22:33.440 --> 0:22:35.160 and then he starts wanting to leave to show take 0:22:35.160 --> 0:22:37.160 an NFL job. I mean, the timing is a little 0:22:37.160 --> 0:22:40.080 different because of the seasons, but that's where I just say, 0:22:40.119 --> 0:22:42.520 if he just would have waited a week, I don't 0:22:42.520 --> 0:22:46.199 know that anyone would be upset about him wanting to 0:22:46.320 --> 0:22:50.040 leave for ninety five million dollars and where he feels 0:22:50.040 --> 0:22:52.360 like he's got a better chance of winning a national championship. 0:22:52.359 --> 0:22:54.840 That's his own prerogative. But the time at which he 0:22:54.920 --> 0:22:57.320 did it, and then the way things become public with 0:22:57.440 --> 0:22:59.560 him telling that team, hey, I think you're a top 0:22:59.600 --> 0:23:02.600 four team and then turning around a day later and telling, 0:23:03.000 --> 0:23:06.320 you know, the LFU players why he's there and why 0:23:06.320 --> 0:23:09.400 it's not a Notre Dame. It just it all seems hypocritical, 0:23:09.760 --> 0:23:12.639 but probably nothing worse than the Southern accent that was 0:23:13.000 --> 0:23:16.199 displayed last night at the basketball game in that that 0:23:16.280 --> 0:23:19.320 was that took the cake. Though I'm not sure you're 0:23:19.359 --> 0:23:22.200 ever coming back to that. Uh well, I don't know 0:23:22.240 --> 0:23:24.680 if you know this, but Notre Dame mat or deficial. 0:23:24.760 --> 0:23:27.240 Marcus Freeman is the new head coach and we have 0:23:27.400 --> 0:23:31.719 exclusive audio of him taking over, and you know he 0:23:31.880 --> 0:23:35.080
