What are the odds that he becomes a king? 91 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 2: That's the thing though, now you even want he's going 92 00:03:58,760 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 2: to make the team for. 93 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 1: Hey, every game every generation blames one of the best 94 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 1: player in the NHL who plays for the Edmonton Oilers 95 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 1: goes and plays for the Los Angeles Kings to help 96 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: the importance of hot. 97 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 7: That's one way to get past the Oilers in play. 98 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 2: Hey, bring drive title too, Okay, be perfect like that guy. 99 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:25,280 Speaker 1: Hey Man Bridge, you far man oh man, So we'll 100 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 1: keep you updated on this because hey, if you again 101 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: with the over under be and six, you're you're guaranteed, 102 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 1: unless you know, I know there's some people that have 103 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:32,480 Speaker 1: they bet that right there? 104 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 2: Is there any way you can end in a tie? 105 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: Is there any crazy ass rule the NHL lives where 106 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:39,719 Speaker 1: a game get ended a tie? 107 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,599 Speaker 2: Because I really want to catch this bet. 108 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that happened to the great Stanley Cup Final 109 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:48,280 Speaker 1: of nineteen twenty seven that was abandoned midway through overtime 110 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 1: of the first period. And yeah, oh that absolutely happened before. 111 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 1: So every five minutes, it seems college football changes, right 112 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 1: and now the big talk in the last two weeks 113 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 1: have been really hot and heavy about the expansion of 114 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,720 Speaker 1: the college football playoff. We hear a lot about the 115 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: five plus eleven model which has been thrown out there, 116 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: which is five conference champions and eleven at large teams. Right, 117 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 1: we're going to get to that. Sixteen teams makes sense. 118 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: You want to be able to not have too much 119 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:20,159 Speaker 1: controversy and have to choose teams who make the conference 120 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,239 Speaker 1: championship game but lose it compared to teams that didn't 121 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,159 Speaker 1: make their conference championship game. Well, but they played an 122 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,159 Speaker 1: extra game, but they lost. Should they be penalized for it? 123 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,719 Speaker 1: So five and eleven great idea. Now, of course we 124 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 1: have seen the Big Ten in the SEC. We'll started 125 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,919 Speaker 1: making noise about wanting and certain coaches and certain you know, 126 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 1: you've certain administrators. Hey, we should have more spots. We 127 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 1: should be guaranteed a certain number of spots in this 128 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:49,239 Speaker 1: because we're the two best conferences. And today, defending national 129 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 1: champion Ohio State head coach Ryan Day said that Ohio 130 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 1: State would like to see future models include at least 131 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: four automatic qualifying spots for the expanded Big Ten. Four spots. 132 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 1: Now the Big ten is bigger. It's no longer ten schools. 133 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 1: They have thirty eight schools right now. So yeah, he 134 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: wants a guaranteed four. Quote, we're in the Big Ten 135 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:13,919 Speaker 1: and we have eighteen teams and some of the best 136 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 1: programs in the country. I feel like we deserve at 137 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 1: least four automatic qualifiers. This is again on the heels 138 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: of the other schools. So this is now the Big 139 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,040 Speaker 1: Ten and the SEC are trying to wrangle this and 140 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 1: trying to hijacket and take charge of this right which 141 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 1: brings me back to the first thing I want to 142 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,360 Speaker 1: say is my take from last week that I'm sick 143 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 1: of the Big Ten in the SEC saying we're just 144 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: better than you and we know Yes, yes you're global, Jim, 145 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 1: you're great, but college football is college bleeping football.

Oh hey, 148 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: just because the last few years it's been a great 149 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: run for the SEC and the Big Ten. Right, it 150 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 1: has been, but Big Ten wasn't the greatest conference for 151 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 1: a long time, but now this last year's oh yeah, 152 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 1: we're so much better. 153 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 2: Than everybody else. 154 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 1: And I say this living in a Big Ten household. 155 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: I'm sick of the elitist and and the and the 156 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,160 Speaker 1: we're above everybody of the Big Ten and the SEC, 157 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:07,279 Speaker 1: and I just I can't stand anymore.

Second, well, that's way too much, all right, 170 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: So you know you sit on and shutty over there. 171 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 1: But when it comes down to this, it's like anything 172 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 1: in life. 173 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 5: If you have leverage, if you have dollars and data 174 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 5: that can back you up, and you have some clout, 175 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 5: you're going to try to exercise it when you can. 176 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 5: And this is a position whereby trying to hold this 177 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 5: thing together for all the second, second, third, fourth level 178 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 5: conference says, you're trying to make sure you have a 179 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 5: shot at a seat at the table, because what you're 180 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 5: risking if fighting it too much is that the big 181 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:14,119 Speaker 5: ten and SEC leave all together. Now, is that kill 182 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 5: everything else? 183 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 4: No? 184 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 5: But it certainly tamps it down quite a bit, now, 185 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 5: doesn't it, given the largest of the programs and the 186 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 5: dollars and eyeballs that flow with them. So yes, that 187 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 5: means you're gonna have to give a little. 188 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 2: Now is four plus? 189 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 5: Maybe it bridge too far, but maybe getting to four 190 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 5: people can agree to it, especially when we're talking about 191 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 5: a sixteen team playoff, which is inevitable like the than 192 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 5: oh snap that we refer to all the time. But 193 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,560 Speaker 5: I think that's all this is. Like, here's your marching orders. 194 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 5: Go out, we have clout. Make sure you echo what 195 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 5: we have to say here. See, it's funny you say that, 196 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 5: because here's the thing. 197 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 2: Is that because. 198 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: But you bring up something that is absolutely going to 199 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 1: rock college football more so than we've seen it, right 200 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 1: because the NIL era USC and U U CLA leaving 201 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: for the Big ten like that. This started the whole 202 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 1: conference realignment, right, and. 203 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 5: Now it's all the lawsuits go look at all the lows. 204 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 5: But overall college football, outside of conference re aligned which 205 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:16,559 Speaker 5: we saw a few years ago, college. 206 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: Football still on the field. The product has not been 207 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: affected that much. It's still the best teams in college football. 208 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 1: We see an expanded playoff, which is what all the 209 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,079 Speaker 1: fans wanted, and now we're arguing about more teams in 210 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 1: the playoff, right, But so overall, yes, the business of 211 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: college football has changed. The NIL era, the transfer era, 212 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: teams moving conferences, conferences starting to align. 213 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 2: Like okay, that's big ben Those are those are big things, right, 214 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 2: those are. 215 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 1: But overall on the field and still here's the best teams. 216 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,679 Speaker 1: The best teams make it. We have more teams in it, 217 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 1: and we're still seeing a season and anything. It's better 218 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 1: for the rest of college football because hey, if your 219 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 1: team is okay, you could have dreams of being a 220 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 1: top sixteen team in the country, have a nine to 221 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 1: three season, and you'll make the playoff, which will be outstanding. Right, 222 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 1: it's open the doors open for everybody. But this is 223 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: where this is really at a big This playoff expansion. 224 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 1: The decision on this is gonna rock college football forever 225 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 1: because what is gonna happen. And we talked about this 226 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,320 Speaker 1: a year ago. If the Big ten in the SEC 227 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 1: don't get what they want, they will do exactly that. 228 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,679 Speaker 1: They will go and have their own high level D 229 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 1: one college football and they're gonna say, it's gonna be 230 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: us in the Big ten, and we're gonna we're gonna 231 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 1: have the big TV contracts if we're gonna have the 232 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: big playoff, and it's gonna be all of us against them. 233 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 2: It's what we're gonna play. We're gonna have thirty. 234 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 1: Two teams in it, and they're gonna be the best 235 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 1: thirty two teams and we're gonna be the highest level 236 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 1: of college football, and then the ACC and the Big 237 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:42,679 Speaker 1: twelve in a mountain West and all you guys can 238 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 1: sit there and be in the second tier. Right, it'll 239 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:48,199 Speaker 1: be clearly, it'll be just like English Premier Football, where 240 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 1: you have the top tier, the Champions League. Why to 241 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 1: college Champions League. If it's a second league, I don't 242 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: say so, then that's what you're gonna have. And that's 243 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 1: gonna change college football forever. That's gonna change it because 244 00:10:57,559 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 1: if they leave to go, they will have their own playoff. 245 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 1: The money will be there. Everybody's going, Oh, I mean, 246 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: I get big ten sec games every single week. We 247 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 1: get them playing against we get them playing all their 248 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 1: normal conference games that they would see, and we get 249 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 1: them playing each other. All the other games are big 250 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 1: ten sec. It's all big games. Every week is Texas 251 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 1: Michigan or or you're seeing Alabama and Wisconsin, right, you're 252 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 1: seeing that every single week. 253 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 2: It would be huge. 254 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: And if they don't figure this out to keep everybody happy, 255 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 1: that's exactly what's gonna happen. 256 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 2: And it sucks. 257 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,079 Speaker 1: Because I'm saying you have to count out of these 258 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 1: two conferences that are we're better than everybody. But yeah, 259 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 1: when it comes to the business, you got to make 260 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 1: sure they're happy or they're gonna leave and they hold 261 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:41,200 Speaker 1: the cards. That's gonna change college football. That changes the product. 262 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: We see how that that changes recruit That changes everything 263 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 1: because you're talking about two different levels of college football 264 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: now and there's not gonna be a Hey, the champion 265 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: of your level will play the champion of our level, 266 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 1: and then we're bringing back together like the Super Bowl. No, 267 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 1: that's not gonna happen. 268 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 5: Well, I mean you've already seen it affected change this 269 00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 5: offseason because what's going on for this next playoff seating? Right, 270 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,680 Speaker 5: you don't get the automatic seat at the table and 271 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 5: a bye week just by winning the conference. 272 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 2: No, that's gone. So yeah, Big ten immediately flexing, SEC 273 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 2: immediately flexing. Greg Zanki's been doing victory laps and deep. 274 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 5: Dives on any angle that anybody wants to go down, 275 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 5: you know, talking about the economics and the dominance, even 276 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 5: if it is near term, it's in the era where 277 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 5: the model has changed immensely and you can lament the 278 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 5: transfer portal as many people do. It's it's not the 279 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 5: cleanest way, but it's as close to a free market 280 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 5: as you can get when you don't have to sit 281 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 5: out unless you're staying in in conference and whatever. But 282 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 5: you know in those rules. But otherwise you have the 283 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 5: opportunity to go and find a place to play to 284 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 5: make some money, which what was always argued should be 285 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 5: the case. Okay, so fine that you deal with and coaches, 286 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 5: you either stay on board and learn to love it 287 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 5: and change your program accordingly, or you don't. As we 288 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 5: saw the guys that were first to the table on 289 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 5: one and done years ago, guess what, it's now their 290 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 5: time to shine because this actually matters. 291 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 2: Hey, come on in. 292 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,600 Speaker 5: We've got a couple of grads transfers in, we've got 293 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 5: a couple of fourth and fifty year guys.

We'll 295 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 5: pay you a bunch of money and you'll be a 296 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 5: star here and away we go. So it's just a 297 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 5: new way of doing business. And for the SEC and 298 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,079 Speaker 5: Big ten, you've got the power, you've got the cloud. 299 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:30,440 Speaker 5: If you're looking for a job, you're you're looking at 300 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 5: where you might want to go to college. 301 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:33,319 Speaker 2: You're you're playing off. 302 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 5: Financially aid packages. You're buying a house or trolona, buy 303 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 5: a car.

We move We moved 438 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 2: on here. So are you buying all of the hype? 439 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 1: How good what we've seen so far out of your door? 440 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 1: Sanders at Browns camp? Even though it's ot as. 441 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 4: I'm sure Ota, I mean, Ota don't mean anything like 442 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:32,880 Speaker 4: they just I mean people don't understand, like lebody's playing hard, 443 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 4: nobody's making contact, nobody's playing at full speed. I mean, 444 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 4: it's great that he might be looking good, but this 445 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 4: is like looking good at seven on seven football. You're 446 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 4: supposed to look at it. That's if you're a quarterback, 447 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 4: that's what that's what OTAs are about. That's why wide 448 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 4: receivers always look like, you know, twenty million dollar guys. 449 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 4: I remember Charles Jordan's who's you know, fast guy with 450 00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 4: a lot of talent or all sorts of ability. I 451 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 4: remember watching him during OTA's one off season. And you 452 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 4: have no idea who Charles Jordan really is because unfortunately, 453 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 4: you know, his NFL career didn't amount to that much. 454 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 4: But god, he looked great at OTAs. I'll tell you 455 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 4: that right now, like a million dollars didn't do any 456 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:27,639 Speaker 4: games consistently. Partly is because it was hurt. But you know, 457 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 4: that's just what OTAs are about. So I'm sorry, I 458 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,640 Speaker 4: don't care what they said about him. OTAs like, let's 459 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:40,120 Speaker 4: see what happens when he's playing in actual games, even 460 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 4: in the preseason. Let's see how he is. It's we 461 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 4: remember like justin fields. Right, I'm sorry to see you 462 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:50,400 Speaker 4: again because we just keep coming back to Bear's quarterbacks. 463 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:52,680 Speaker 4: But there are there are those moments like when it's 464 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 4: full speed, how do you how do you react? When 465 00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 4: we get closer at full speed? That's what I want 466 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 4: to see o tas are full speed drills. 467 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 5: Speak of a guy that did well in full speed 468 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:07,920 Speaker 5: drills and games a year ago, and now he is 469 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 5: under the microscope again. We go to the wonderful world 470 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 5: of Sam Darnold getting the vote of confidence from his 471 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 5: coach that is quote, best days are ahead of him. 472 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:17,680 Speaker 2: Do you believe his coach? 473 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 1: Oh? 474 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 4: Why not? 475 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 5: Or will he lose the job outright like Matt Flinn 476 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 5: did many years ago in the same city. 477 00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 4: Hey, I think Donald's got a couple of I think 478 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:43,679 Speaker 4: that last year earning him a full season with another 479 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,880 Speaker 4: team to prove whether he can play. So I think 480 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:49,200 Speaker 4: that he probably gets ended by full season. I mean, 481 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 4: you're going to get twelve starts. We'll do anything after 482 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 4: twelve starts and you know, look good, then okay, I 483 00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 4: can see you moving on. But I don't think it's 484 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,199 Speaker 4: gonna be like Flynn, where it was what four games 485 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 4: and then they were done with him. I think he's 486 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 4: got a longer lease than that. He's earned more than that. 487 00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 4: But in this one time, we've seen what Sam Donald is, 488 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 4: which is a guy who's you know, invidible physical skill, 489 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 4: but doesn't adapt fast enough. It's sort of like the 490 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 4: whole Mark Sanchez thing when and you know, not to 491 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:30,400 Speaker 4: dump on Jets quarterbacks either, but. 492 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 2: No, not at all, of course, not. 493 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 4: No, that's the aim, like not take aim like that. 494 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 4: Sometimes you know, I just don't see the fields fast enough, 495 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:46,440 Speaker 4: and sometimes they see it fast enough for brief time. 496 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 4: Brief times, but then it gets real, right, and then 497 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 4: it gets to be another level of So Sam Donald 498 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:57,959 Speaker 4: during the regular season last year terrific. And then you've 499 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 4: got into playoff type of games at both ends of 500 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:04,920 Speaker 4: the season and actual playoff games where the speed takes 501 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:08,359 Speaker 4: another notch ut right, and you're playing against better defenses, 502 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 4: and you're playing against you know, people who are really 503 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:16,879 Speaker 4: seriously game planning you for situations, and you know, you 504 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,399 Speaker 4: regress again because you're not good enough to take that 505 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,160 Speaker 4: next step. And I think that said Sam Donald is 506 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 4: I just I remember watching him as a you know, 507 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 4: during practices with the forty nine ers, and you would 508 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 4: see him and then you would see Rock Hardy. And 509 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:38,560 Speaker 4: I'm not saying Brock like Sam Donald looks apart from 510 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:43,159 Speaker 4: the physical standpoint, Rusty plays the part because he plays 511 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 4: at a speed that can relate to the game, and 512 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 4: that's not to say. Brock Perty is a great player, 513 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:50,200 Speaker 4: don't get me wrong, but he plays at the proper 514 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:53,400 Speaker 4: speed and he adjusts to things the way that they're 515 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 4: supposed to work, you know, at real live action. That's 516 00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:59,680 Speaker 4: why he can't compete and gets you to a play 517 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 4: at They've gotten that team to displayoffs a couple of times, 518 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,440 Speaker 4: got into a Super Bowl, once got him really close 519 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:08,520 Speaker 4: to winning that Super Bowl. And Sam Darnold is the 520 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 4: guy who is probably the second level quarterback. He's in 521 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:19,200 Speaker 4: that forever Alex Smith. You know, somewhere League hours, he's 522 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:21,640 Speaker 4: probably nighting as good as Alex Smith, but somewhere in 523 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:23,720 Speaker 4: that realm ja Cole. 524 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:25,360 Speaker 2: Now, now the big question I've wanted to ask. 525 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 1: I understand if you you don't want to give us 526 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:31,120 Speaker 1: the answer because you're protecting yourself.

I've never heard that term. 541 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 4: But I was like, yeah, that's a Miami thing. That's 542 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 4: definitely a Miami thing. So yeah, Defon Diggs in the 543 00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 4: booty boats. Yeah, that's going to get you that.

It was pretty obvious. It was 554 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:50,200 Speaker 5: all hanging right there in front of me. Anyway, from that, 555 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 5: Saquon Barkley on the cover of Madden and all this 556 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 5: other fun stuff, is he serious in the hey, I 557 00:26:56,760 --> 00:27:02,160 Speaker 5: could just walk the earth like Canaan Kung Fu comments. 558 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:05,480 Speaker 4: He's really serious about that? I think that, Yes, I 559 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:09,160 Speaker 4: believe that, Like I think he's I think he's another 560 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 4: worldly creature. I do. 561 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 1: And he could he could walk away after next year, 562 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 1: like you could play this because he said retirements for 563 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,119 Speaker 1: will come out of nowhere could be out. Do you 564 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:20,440 Speaker 1: think he could do it after this year? 565 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 4: He could be Like he's a different kind of guy, 566 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:26,440 Speaker 4: Like I could just see I could just see him, 567 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 4: you know, just up and say it. I mean, he's 568 00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 4: made a fair amount of money. But I do think 569 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:37,080 Speaker 4: that there are some career things that are going to 570 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,879 Speaker 4: start to if he has another you like, say, against 571 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:44,159 Speaker 4: with sixteen hundred yards into the two K and now 572 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:45,840 Speaker 4: all of a sudden you're saying, oh, are you on 573 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:49,159 Speaker 4: a Hall of Fame path? That's where you start to 574 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,399 Speaker 4: have to say, hey, take one, you want to do 575 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 4: a couple more years, get yourself into hall of Fame discussion, 576 00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:56,680 Speaker 4: because right now. 577 00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 2: You're very good. Right now, you're very good? 578 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,199 Speaker 4: Right well, you know what, You're exactly right, he is 579 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:06,919 Speaker 4: very good. He's not he's not quite all in Hall 580 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 4: of Time category, not after just one season of that. 581 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 4: And I know he had the moments with the Giants, 582 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 4: but yeah, like he's not there yet. I think that 583 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 4: if he has another big year, they go deep in 584 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:22,200 Speaker 4: the playoffs, maybe even win another super Bowl. You're talking 585 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 4: about you're talking about Hall of Fame candidacy, and he's 586 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 4: got to string together probably three or four good years. 587 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:35,720 Speaker 4: And by good I mean in sixteen hire yards, two thousand, 588 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 4: you know, two thousand, all purpose. We all know all 589 00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 4: those kinds of things. So he's talking about it, and 590 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,840 Speaker 4: he could do it. He really could, because he's a 591 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 4: different kind of guy like that. I think it's the 592 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 4: temptation to say, let me, let's leave my imprint on 593 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 4: the game, because you know that wall same thing is 594 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 4: pretty cool, and signing autographs for the rest of your 595 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 4: life to make money.

And then in his last at 622 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 10: bat he hit his almost at his other ankle. 623 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 2: Did you see that?

Is 641 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 11: on the scoreboard, but it doesn't matter so far because 642 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:02,240 Speaker 11: the Twins are up three to one bottom. 643 00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:02,680 Speaker 10: Of the sixth inning. 644 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 9: The Giants have taken the lead from the Padres six 645 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 9: to five. Bottom of the seventh. They had the bases loaded, 646 00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 9: they still have a man on third.
