Here you go. All we need 169 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 1: is your John Hancock and you will be the next 170 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 1: head coach there for the Auburn University Tigers. So I 171 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: don't think that has been presented necessarily, But I do 172 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 1: think that there has been terms discussed between his agent 173 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 1: and Auburn about what the finer details of the contract 174 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: will be, what the money, the years, um incentives, buy out, 175 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: all that. Like, I think lot of that has been 176 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,199 Speaker 1: kind of most likely ironed out at this stage because 177 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 1: of these conversations have are being had behind closed doors. 178 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 1: They have to, like there is a sense of urgency 179 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 1: for Auburn. And the reason why we've talked all year, 180 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 1: why do you fire your head coach in the middle 181 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,960 Speaker 1: of the season, why do you fire for for teams 182 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: like Nebraska, why do you fire your coach after week four? 183 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 1: Is so that your university can start to have these 184 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 1: conversations with head coaches. And I guess I even head coaches, 185 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,679 Speaker 1: but with agents of these head coaches to figure out 186 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: what terms have to be met so that when we 187 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,080 Speaker 1: do press play, which is going to happen after this season, 188 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 1: we should see a lot of news starting to really flow. 189 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 1: I would say on Sunday Monday that these guys are 190 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: ready to go. We can bring him in house, We 191 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 1: can get going when it comes to signing kids in 192 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 1: the portal. We can get going to signing guys before 193 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 1: the first signing uh day here in December. A lot 194 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: is going to happen next month. You need to be 195 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 1: ready to hit play. So I I fully anticipate to 196 00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: To me, I've said it all along. Lane makes them 197 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,599 Speaker 1: most sense. I think Lane would be silly not to 198 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 1: jump on this opportunity, and I would expect them to 199 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 1: announce it if Lane is the guy on Friday, and 200 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,840 Speaker 1: then all day Sunday or Saturday, excuse me, during the 201 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 1: Iron Bowl between Alabama and Auburn, all we're gonna talk 202 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 1: about and listen to is Lane Kiffin. The war chest 203 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 1: that they that Auburn has created an I hell, the 204 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 1: new facilities they have, and how Lane Kiffin is going 205 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 1: to just bring in the most talented transfer kids out there, 206 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 1: are portal kids out there to rebuild this team, to 207 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 1: get ready for the season. Why would you not take 208 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: that opportunity to be on national television and and hit 209 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: that storyline over and over and over and over again. 210 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 1: And then too, if you're worried about Cadillac winning, and 211 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 1: then obviously the energy that he could create by beating Alabama, yes, 212 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 1: sort of eliminate that before the game even starts. So okay, 213 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: So a few things there, um. First Off, on the 214 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 1: soccol off front, I don't think he's pulling this out 215 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 1: of thin air. Like I agree with you, there is 216 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:08,839 Speaker 1: something very solid there. However, like Ross Dolder of Sports 217 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 1: Illustrated says, at this time of the year, during silly season, 218 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 1: the coaching carousel season, consider everything, but believe nothing. I mean, 219 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:21,680 Speaker 1: the exact situation you're talking about, Aaron actually happened to 220 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 1: L s U on Thanksgiving a few years ago against 221 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,599 Speaker 1: Texas A and M. Where they're playing A and M. 222 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,440 Speaker 1: They're beating up on A and M. Edo's run is 223 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 1: the interim head coach In the entire time, they are 224 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 1: talking about how Tom Herman is going to be the 225 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 1: next head coach at L s U. And he was 226 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 1: that was a deal agreed to in principle. Now the 227 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 1: contract was not signed, but it was agreed to in principle, 228 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 1: and before they signed the deal. Uh, it is pretty 229 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 1: well believed. I mean, maybe I have to tag allegedly 230 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:53,680 Speaker 1: on here, but I feel like it's accepted as truth 231 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 1: that Trace Armstrong, his agent, leaks the deal to incentivize 232 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 1: Texas to start to act. And obviously you've already had 233 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 1: some of that plane one side off of the other 234 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 1: going on because we know that Ole Miss offered Lane 235 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 1: nine million dollars year making a top ten contract. But 236 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 1: like we have seen so many situations where stuff is 237 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 1: done until it isn't until it blows up. Jimbo to 238 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 1: l s U was a done deal until s Miles 239 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 1: ends up getting carried off of the field after beating 240 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 1: A and M and then the presence like, well, I 241 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 1: don't want to pay all this money to fire this 242 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 1: man when our states going through economic issues, YadA YadA YadA. Uh, 243 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 1: it's l s U even had a group of boosters 244 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 1: fly to Lincoln excuse me, fly to Norman, Oklahoma last 245 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 1: year to meet with Lincoln Riley, uh for a meeting 246 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 1: that never actually took place. They flew there and flew back. 247 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 1: That's how tricked and convinced they were. And these are 248 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: very well connected high people that that was happening. So 249 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:54,440 Speaker 1: I don't I don't think this is a sign that 250 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: anything is done. What I do think this is a 251 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 1: sign of yes, Jimmy Sexton is playing Auburn and Ole 252 00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:03,439 Speaker 1: Miss against one another. I still have no idea what 253 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,959 Speaker 1: Lane is going to do. Um, we kind of discussed this. 254 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:11,359 Speaker 1: He does not outright say no, but he does intimate 255 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,960 Speaker 1: that he is not going anywhere when saying that's news 256 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 1: to me, nice sources, seeming a little frustrated, a little angry. Um, 257 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 1: does it? Does it? Like? Does any of this reflect 258 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 1: negatively on Lane? After years of saying come to this tip, 259 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 1: commit to me here, like come do this and then 260 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 1: these tweets where he's kind of like I'm not leaving. Basically, 261 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 1: does any of it reflect negatively on Lane? Like the 262 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: same way we still bring up the Nick Sabing clip 263 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 1: from back in the day. Does any of this hurt 264 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 1: him reputation wise or anythink none of it matters At 265 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: the end. I think old Miss Fins are gonna be 266 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,320 Speaker 1: piste off regardless um, whether he would have come out 267 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 1: and obviously been forthright and just said, hey, listen, this 268 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 1: is my last game and I do plan on taking 269 00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 1: a job at Auburn starting Friday morning, or if he's 270 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 1: kind of like just you know, slow playing this, not 271 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 1: committed obviously wants his team and everyone to focus on 272 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 1: this rivalry game, uh, to get to nine wins here 273 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 1: on Thursday night. So and then if he would have 274 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 1: decided after that, hey, good morning everyone. We just won 275 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 1: last night. And oh, by the way, I'm leaving to 276 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 1: go to Auburn, like they're going to be mad one 277 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: way or the other. And and and in our chat 278 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 1: right now, there's a lot of people bringing up uh. 279 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 1: Jamie Chadwell, head coach of Coastal Carolina, actually had their 280 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 1: game this weekend and it was really interesting. I asked 281 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 1: I had Coastal two weeks ago as well, And you know, 282 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 1: we always he gets asked a time about this, and 283 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 1: we asked him before the game of you know, there's 284 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 1: gonna be a lot of movement. There's gonna be some 285 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 1: coaches moving, especially once this this job at Auburn starts 286 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 1: and someone takes it that Donroes are then't gonna kind of, 287 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 1: you know, start to fall a little bit. Uh, where 288 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 1: are you with this? You've done great at Coastal Carolina. 289 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,480 Speaker 1: How do you handle this situation with your players? And 290 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 1: he said straight up, like I'm honest with him, Like 291 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 1: I literally get in front of the football team. I 292 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 1: let them know that, Hey, guys, I've been contacted by 293 00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: this school, this school, this school. I've taken an interview 294 00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 1: with the school, and this is where we're at. Like 295 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 1: he's like, there, if if I want, if these guys 296 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 1: want to be trade like grown men, I'm not going 297 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:09,560 Speaker 1: to leave him in the dark. Like, first off, with 298 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 1: with media nowadays and everything and people trying to break 299 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 1: stories left and right, they're going to hear the noise. 300 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 1: I would prefer them to hear it from me. And 301 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 1: I thought that's pretty big, and I agree with it, man, 302 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 1: Like these kids aren't idiots. Like if you're in the 303 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 1: old miss locker room right now, you're not an idiot. 304 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: Lane Kiffin is a hell of a coach. Lane Kiffin 305 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 1: deserves to be recognized as that. And Lane Kiffin deserves 306 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,440 Speaker 1: to to have the opportunity to be the next head 307 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 1: coach at Alburn. You get that, you committed to to 308 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 1: Old miss and Lane Kiffin for that reason, because you 309 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 1: knew that he's a great coach, so you're not oblivious 310 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 1: to what's going on the outside world. So I think 311 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 1: for Lane, like, there's nothing wrong with being upfront and 312 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 1: honest at least with his teammates in the meetings of guys. 313 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 1: Let's just talk about the elephant in the room. There's 314 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 1: a job opening there at Auburn. I've a considering it. 315 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 1: I want to get that out of the way. But 316 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 1: when I'm in this building right now and as we 317 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 1: get ready for Thursday night, I am committed to you, 318 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: and I'm committing to winning the game first Mississippi State, 319 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 1: and then it's done, boom over with let's move on. 320 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 1: So I kind of like the approach from Chadwell. I 321 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 1: love the approach. Chaneral makes me like him even more. 322 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,879 Speaker 1: And if Lane would leave, that would make so much 323 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 1: ens it would make too much sense from Msgo get 324 00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 1: Jamie Chadwell. He represents all the schematic advantages we're talking about. 325 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:28,639 Speaker 1: It's kind of the perfect step up a lot of 326 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:30,719 Speaker 1: times Old you know, because Old MS is definitely a 327 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:34,720 Speaker 1: premier Power five, but not a premier premier power five, 328 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:36,200 Speaker 1: or at least it's how we think of it now, 329 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 1: unless maybe Lane stays there and ends up changing. Uh. 330 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 1: That kind of perspective, I do find it. I didn't 331 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 1: consider that, but I think you're right maybe in terms 332 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:47,639 Speaker 1: of Lane getting ahead of this, because if he doesn't 333 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,440 Speaker 1: say anything, then it's going to affect his team negatively. 334 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: If you say, well, if he tells them that he's 335 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 1: going to Auburn, they're thinking about that, won't they be 336 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 1: piste in? Yes, they will be as well. But I 337 00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 1: agree with Aaron, that's kind of the lesser of two Eve. Like, 338 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,680 Speaker 1: everybody enjoys to know where they stand in a relationship, 339 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 1: even it's maybe what you don't want, Like, even if 340 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 1: you want the relationship to continue, you still appreciate honesty. 341 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 1: You still appreciate knowing what the score is. So you're 342 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,679 Speaker 1: not out here looking like an idiot and maybe backing 343 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 1: up a coach that is going to leave you. I 344 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:20,959 Speaker 1: wonder if he's doing this. I could definitely see it 345 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 1: in his personality to do so. Maybe he's already told 346 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:27,360 Speaker 1: them he is staying. But and then you just who 347 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,919 Speaker 1: knows what Jimmy Sexton is telling to do? Right and 348 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:33,160 Speaker 1: all this like maybe lanees even made up his mind personally, 349 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,200 Speaker 1: but sex It's like, well, you know, don't say anything 350 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 1: yet publicly, because I think I can squeeze a few 351 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 1: extra dollars here. I think I get that buyout bumped 352 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,199 Speaker 1: up to fifty million dollars here, like sex In is 353 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 1: moving all the chest pieces against himself and getting everyone paid. 354 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 1: The wild part about this is it sets up what 355 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 1: was already a pretty fascinating egg bowl. I mean, this 356 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 1: is this is the rivalry that even if both teams 357 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 1: were winless, still has a lot of juice because both 358 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 1: teams desperately hate one another. But think about this, Aaron. 359 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,040 Speaker 1: When you think about this season that old Mrs had 360 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 1: and you think about the season that Mississippi State has had, 361 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:15,200 Speaker 1: it probably feels like the old miss season has been 362 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 1: significantly better. Right, um, But come Thursday night, if Missippi 363 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 1: State wins that game, all of a sudden, you look up. 364 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:29,679 Speaker 1: Both teams are eight and four four and four the SEC. 365 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,920 Speaker 1: So despite their feeling like they've been two completely different years, 366 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:35,439 Speaker 1: that would be Mike Leach kind of laughing. As you know, 367 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:37,919 Speaker 1: here y'all are all praising Lane and I just did 368 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 1: the exact same thing that man did, and where whereas 369 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 1: on the flip side, if old Miss wins, not only 370 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 1: do they drive down their most hated rival to a 371 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,159 Speaker 1: poultry seven and five, three and five in the SEC, 372 00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 1: but they go to nine and three. They finished five 373 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 1: and three in the SEC, third in the SEC West. 374 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 1: They have a chance to win ten games for a 375 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 1: second year in a row. With the ball game so 376 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 1: like even narratively from narratively, from a standing standpoint, there's 377 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 1: so much on the line. And I guess my big 378 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 1: question in all of this we talked about the weather 379 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 1: affecting this game. How does Lane's team respond to these rumors? 380 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 1: Because I gotta be honest, Uh, they didn't respond very 381 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:20,159 Speaker 1: well last week, Aaron. I mean that's a team that 382 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 1: looked completely unfocused, out of sorts and got their absolute 383 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: ass kicked in fable. Well, I would say this Arkansas's 384 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 1: playing ever since. You know, we saw them first first 385 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 1: L s U and I think the big thing the 386 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 1: issue was when they placed L s U was k J. 387 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:36,879 Speaker 1: Jefferson was not in that ball game. I mean, this 388 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 1: is a team I had him a few weeks ago 389 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 1: that has been banged up. The defense has just been 390 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 1: decimated by injuries. kJ has been in and out of lineup. 391 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:46,920 Speaker 1: They really haven't had to get any rhythm. Arkansas is 392 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:50,280 Speaker 1: a lot better football team than than what we've seen 393 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:52,359 Speaker 1: throughout the season. Not saying that Old Miss should have 394 00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:53,879 Speaker 1: got the absolute ship beating out of I'm like they 395 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,640 Speaker 1: did last weekend. But this is a good Arkansas team 396 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 1: that if if if kJ has been healthy all year, 397 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,920 Speaker 1: if the defense was healthy year during the season, probably 398 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 1: should have one or two more wins on the resume. 399 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:08,200 Speaker 1: So I'm not shocked necessarily that Arkansas one. I am 400 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 1: shocked with the fashion that they did it and just 401 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 1: how much they were just more physical and Old Miss 402 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 1: had what seven yards? They just couldn't execute the red zone. 403 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 1: Every time they got on the red zone, they would 404 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,200 Speaker 1: shoot themselves in the foot with a holding penalty and 405 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 1: offside penalty, get behind the chains, they'd go for it 406 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:23,880 Speaker 1: on fourth down. They want to get points. I mean, 407 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 1: they moved the ball, they just could not figure out 408 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 1: what the heck was going on inside the twenty yard 409 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 1: line unfortunately, So uh listen, at the end of the day, 410 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 1: that's just there's two things that need to be considered. 411 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:41,080 Speaker 1: Is all burned a better job than Old Miss. Yes, 412 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:46,120 Speaker 1: is Old Miss, as for a coach's standpoint, the safer 413 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:50,199 Speaker 1: of the two gigs. Yes. Does Lane Kiffin want to 414 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:54,400 Speaker 1: win a championship? That's the ultimate question. Does Lane Kiffin 415 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 1: want to take the next step in his career and 416 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 1: and and and and legitimately put himself in a position 417 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 1: to compete for championships and not worry about the safety 418 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:09,239 Speaker 1: of staying at Old Miss, collecting a check and and 419 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 1: being happy. You don't have to do that now though. 420 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 1: He don't have to do that now though, right like like, 421 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 1: if he's going to continue to perform like this, it'll miss. 422 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,639 Speaker 1: He can make that jump later on in theory, like 423 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 1: if he can bring what they've never had before. But 424 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 1: but then you're playing the game of then you're playing 425 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:31,160 Speaker 1: your two games, you're playing the game of staying at 426 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 1: that level, and that's not easy to do in this league, 427 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 1: like we're looking at it right now. I keep bring 428 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 1: up the example. I think it's a very good example 429 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:40,360 Speaker 1: of Kentucky, Like Mark Stop's got Kentucky to the top 430 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 1: of the mountain and they were the number two teams 431 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:44,199 Speaker 1: in the East, and people are like, that's still a 432 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 1: basketball school. Obviously, Ill Miss a different situation, but that's 433 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 1: a basketball school, and how long can he maintain that 434 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 1: level of consistency And all of a sudden, now Tennessee's better. 435 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 1: Florida's a new coaching staff and and they look like 436 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:58,360 Speaker 1: to be they're recruiting, They got a quarterback that's developing, 437 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:00,879 Speaker 1: and maybe Florida takes that next step next. Chare South 438 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 1: Carolinas winning football games? Like now all of a sudden, 439 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 1: Kentucky's coming down the hill. You look at the SEC 440 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:10,239 Speaker 1: West Alabama and gonywhere L s U is definitely not 441 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:12,639 Speaker 1: going anywhere. Their coaching staff A and M is a 442 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 1: ton of talent. Sam Pittman's building a good, good culture 443 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 1: there in Arkansas. Uh, you got Texas and Oklahoma coming soon. 444 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 1: So like at the end of the day, like, how 445 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:24,400 Speaker 1: how much longer is Old Miss going to consistently state 446 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:28,199 Speaker 1: at that nine wind mark? And see, I don't know, 447 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 1: a sudden two or three years if they dropped to 448 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,879 Speaker 1: six wins or seven wins and then all of a sudden, 449 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 1: as he viewed as highly as like right now he's 450 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 1: a hot commodity. Right now he is a top coach 451 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 1: out there in the open market. Why Miss out on 452 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 1: an opportunity to go to a place that can win 453 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 1: a championship, to to maybe say the what if game 454 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,400 Speaker 1: in three or four years, another job may open that 455 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 1: could be as good or better. I just it's hard 456 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:56,920 Speaker 1: to predict the future. T Bob, like, why wait when 457 00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 1: you can take something right now where you know? I 458 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 1: guess yea out, Yeah, I guess in my in my 459 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 1: in my head. When I'm thinking about Lane staying, he 460 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:08,760 Speaker 1: I'm in my head. I'm not framing it as he's like, oh, 461 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,639 Speaker 1: I'm gonna wait for a better job. When I'm thinking 462 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:15,479 Speaker 1: is maybe he genuinely thinks like, no, I think I 463 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:18,920 Speaker 1: can do this at Old Miss, and I don't like 464 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,440 Speaker 1: some of the situation at Auburn right now. And then 465 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 1: maybe in like two or three years he you know, 466 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,920 Speaker 1: or like for you whatever, like maybe he eventually comes 467 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 1: to a place where he's like, ah, you know what, 468 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:32,679 Speaker 1: I don't think it's gonna work. And look, since he 469 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:34,640 Speaker 1: has been at Old Miss in three years and we'll 470 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 1: move on here in a second, but since he has 471 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 1: been there, um, he has essentially had a a a 472 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:44,439 Speaker 1: blank at just an automatic rubber stamp. Yes for whatever 473 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 1: he has wanted right uh more in I l money more, 474 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 1: you know, better facilities. He needs this campaign Like whatever 475 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:54,960 Speaker 1: he has needed, Oxford has given him rubber stamp. And 476 00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,199 Speaker 1: now they're trying to give him a big contract to 477 00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:59,480 Speaker 1: keep him. So they're doing everything so like, yeah, I 478 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 1: could where he's happy. He thinks this is sustainable because well, 479 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 1: hell look where he started first where he is now? Right, 480 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,800 Speaker 1: Like in theory, winning only helps you gain a momentum 481 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 1: and established that consistency that you want. And also like 482 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 1: I think Lank Gibbons probably a better coach than Mark 483 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,440 Speaker 1: Poops is We've we've we've talked about that, uh at 484 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:23,360 Speaker 1: length and and and what do you think about this here? 485 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:26,440 Speaker 1: Does a twelve team playoff change the math at all? 486 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,159 Speaker 1: Because all of a sudden, that that that postseason that 487 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 1: is everybody's goal, that is the key to winning championships, 488 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: That postseason is more open than it was before. Yeah, 489 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:38,879 Speaker 1: I think that's for a lot of coaches. It opens 490 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:40,680 Speaker 1: things up a lot more. But it still goes back 491 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:43,920 Speaker 1: to my thought of why Auburn is a better job 492 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:45,720 Speaker 1: than all of a sudden, you can go to Auburn 493 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 1: not necessarily feel like you have to beat Nick Saban 494 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 1: Alabama in the first few years as kind of Nicks 495 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:54,199 Speaker 1: on his way out and still get all burned in 496 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 1: a position to make the twelve team playoff. Like, let's 497 00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:59,639 Speaker 1: just play this scenario. Link Giffin takes the job he 498 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 1: brings is over Jukins. I guarantee, if Lane takes a 499 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 1: job at Auburn, there is no doubt in my mind 500 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,720 Speaker 1: that Jenkins, who is from the state of Alabama, would 501 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,159 Speaker 1: not use his one free pass to go follow his 502 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 1: head coach who just helped him produce an incredible season. 503 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:15,359 Speaker 1: So you get the best running back in the SEC. Boom, 504 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 1: you got him locked up. Boom, you go get fifteen 505 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 1: other top recruits. Lane can turn this into an Auburn 506 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:26,960 Speaker 1: football team into a nine win team plus in two seasons, 507 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 1: just when we're expanding to that twelve team playoff. So 508 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 1: could he do it at all? Miss, Yeah, he could 509 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 1: do it at all. Miss. I think it's more likely 510 00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:37,360 Speaker 1: and more consistent of him doing in that at Auburn 511 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:39,840 Speaker 1: and get that team to the playoffs without having to 512 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: hear everyone bitching and moaning about oh, you didn't beat 513 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:44,680 Speaker 1: Alabama you need but well, who cares. I got you 514 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 1: to the playoffs and guess what, Saban only has a 515 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 1: couple more years left. Let's suck it off. Yeah, I 516 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:57,119 Speaker 1: think if you have to beat Alabama, you have to 517 00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 1: be I don't think it's in the first two years. 518 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 1: I don't think he has to in the first two 519 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:06,160 Speaker 1: years for three, in the in year three or four, 520 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,400 Speaker 1: he has to pull one off. I mean, that is 521 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 1: the whole thing. Would say them back when you get 522 00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:16,440 Speaker 1: them back at Auburn year three. So let's say to 523 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 1: next year, it's at Alburn, because we know it's it's 524 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:20,679 Speaker 1: it's a game that is mostly if you're gonna win 525 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,120 Speaker 1: at Auburn, you're gonna win it at home. Year ones 526 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: at Auburn, chance of them doing it slim, But maybe, 527 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 1: like what's it like? Like what is Alabama gonna be 528 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 1: next year? Who is going to be their quarterback? I 529 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,520 Speaker 1: look at the transfer market right now, the portal. I 530 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 1: don't see a lot of quarterbacks out there that to me, 531 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 1: take Alabama to the next level. So they're gonna have 532 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:39,640 Speaker 1: to get someone in house, and I don't think they 533 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 1: had that guy in house. So what is Alabama gonna 534 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 1: be next year? Maybe you do get them next year 535 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 1: if you can, you know, you could do your thing 536 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:49,400 Speaker 1: in the transfer portal. But I do agree, like year three, 537 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 1: when you get them back at home, I think you've 538 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 1: got to make that game extremely competitive and I do 539 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 1: think you need to be able to push them to 540 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:59,879 Speaker 1: possibly win that football game. Uh Joey Jose and the 541 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 1: Chet says Lane only looks out for himself. I think, Look, 542 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 1: that's where I think it's all interesting. I think that 543 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:10,880 Speaker 1: has always been the opinion of Lane, and to his detriment. 544 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 1: And then I feel like he had to go to 545 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:15,640 Speaker 1: the Alabama coaching halfway house and kind of rebuild his reputation. 546 00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 1: And I wonder if he were to make this move 547 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 1: and then it does not go well at Auburn, does 548 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 1: he kind of spike himself forever? I don't know. Um M, 549 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 1: I don't know. I have okay, okay, I am. I 550 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:34,200 Speaker 1: am basing this on nothing. I think he's staying. I'm 551 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: not based on any information. That's a pure gut feeling. 552 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 1: And you think he's gone, and you think he's gone 553 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 1: to Auburn. I mean, you've kind of beat me down 554 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 1: with this. I started at no Way and then you 555 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 1: kind of brought me around. But he's taking it. Then, 556 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 1: who's taking it. Then it doesn't seem like I think 557 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 1: it seems like give me your damn opinion. Who Who's who? 558 00:28:54,360 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 1: They going? Is it freeze? Like? Who's left? Uh? Matt 559 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 1: Rule just reportedly, Brom if you can I see a 560 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:07,360 Speaker 1: couple of articles here, but I don't know, um Brom 561 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,160 Speaker 1: if you want to see if you can find concrete 562 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 1: is for some light breaking news. But it's it's being 563 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 1: rumored right now that Matt Rule turned down Nebraska. Have 564 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 1: you seen this? I'm looking now, Okay, okay, look look 565 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 1: and let me know what you get. All right, shut up? 566 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:32,480 Speaker 1: Aaron Murray, idiot. Lincoln is good and so Dennis Dodd, 567 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 1: the CBS reporter, seems to have intimated that Matt Rule 568 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 1: turned down Nebraska because he needs because what Matt Rule 569 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 1: needs to do is what his favorite thing to do 570 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 1: is is go on television and make excuses for why 571 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:48,280 Speaker 1: he sucked in the press. Where is this Matt Rule 572 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 1: venom coming from? Bro? I'm like he texted us a 573 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 1: clip earlier of Matt Rule being like, you know, I 574 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 1: think one thing I screwed up is I wish you 575 00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 1: would have like been closer to my players. And he's 576 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 1: talking about I could playm COVID, but really it's on 577 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 1: me or something that in year three I was really 578 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 1: getting close to him. What what has Matt Rule done 579 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:10,480 Speaker 1: to you? Brom? Where did he touch you? So I 580 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 1: have this thing where I like my guys who are 581 00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,480 Speaker 1: going to come up and pay a hundred million dollars 582 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 1: to speak publicly in front of people, to not say 583 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:24,920 Speaker 1: stupid things on camera. It's like, why, I don't think 584 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: it's I don't know if if I took it as 585 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:32,840 Speaker 1: wildly stupid as I Yeah, I think it was just 586 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 1: a little honest from a coach and tried to make 587 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:38,040 Speaker 1: the jump to the NF blamed not being able to 588 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 1: connect with the players. No, he said he because he did. 589 00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 1: We got an effort out of him. Dude. Let's god. 590 00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 1: I thought it was somewhat blaming COVID for like Man, 591 00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:52,480 Speaker 1: I didn't really get I didn't get to build the 592 00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 1: chemistry with my team. It's hard to build that in 593 00:30:55,200 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 1: that trust factor essentially, because you know what you know 594 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 1: what you can't do a Brom, you know what you 595 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 1: can't do during COVID ropes courses. How the hell are 596 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 1: you supposed to build team chemistry if you can't go 597 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:18,400 Speaker 1: to a Ropes course. Trustful. If you can't exactly like, 598 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 1: if I can't climb over you and reach the top 599 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,400 Speaker 1: of the wall and then reach down and pick you up, 600 00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 1: we're never gonna play good football together. Okay, it's not 601 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 1: Matt rules fault. It was it was the viruses fault. 602 00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 1: Uh And here brom goes with this Matt rule seems 603 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 1: like a guy who uses the term wuhan flew iron 604 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 1: You really think so? I know? I think now you 605 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 1: are ascribing some things to Matt rule that I don't 606 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:45,560 Speaker 1: that I don't feel be being. What is it? Ropes course? 607 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 1: Oh bro? If you've ever gone to a workplace team 608 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 1: bonding ropes course, it is the ideal way to form 609 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 1: some new relationships. You have to work together to accomplish goals. 610 00:31:56,360 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 1: It breaks down social like anxieties and break in the 611 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 1: ice because you're able to clearly bond over this new 612 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 1: activity you're doing together. There is nothing better than a 613 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 1: great Ropes course for building team chemistry. Any team, sales team, uh, 614 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 1: you know, work team. In fact, snaps should do a 615 00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 1: Ropes course and film it for contests. Um, that is 616 00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 1: that that we will never reach the numbers that we 617 00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 1: want to until we do a ropes course. Just trust 618 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:28,640 Speaker 1: me on that, okay. Um, actually a barge might be right. 619 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 1: He said I voted Rules a fool because he made 620 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:32,640 Speaker 1: Joe Brady o C in the NFL down n o 621 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:37,960 Speaker 1: C experience. Uh to Daniel Daniel basham ass would T 622 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 1: catch you to trustfaul Aaron? I do I do think 623 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 1: T would? I would attempt to catch T Bob. But 624 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 1: T Bob is he's a big man. It's like you 625 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 1: always say, or you just be a little pitch catch me, 626 00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 1: put your body on the line, your body on the line. 627 00:32:53,840 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 1: But remember like six four. Yeah, I was very shocked 628 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 1: when I met Brom there and bounteries like, oh damn, Brom, 629 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,479 Speaker 1: I see you. I see a big guy. No, I know, 630 00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 1: I know. It was. It was very intimidating. Uh, it's 631 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 1: probably how he's gotten so far in life. Uh, he's 632 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:13,720 Speaker 1: just he's just tall, and people assume that he's um 633 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,880 Speaker 1: competent because of it. See, poor Matt Rule is out 634 00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 1: here having to make it as like a five nine Brodie, 635 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 1: I actually don't know how tall Matt Rule is. Um, 636 00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:25,760 Speaker 1: let's look it up. Seven. Let's just put it that way. 637 00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 1: Oh wow, are you being highest now from unbelievable. We 638 00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 1: can't wait for like three years for for Nebraska, Nebraska 639 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 1: to be like the top team in their conference in 640 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:40,880 Speaker 1: that role leading some team to national championship, ripping up 641 00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:45,200 Speaker 1: how Matt rules five six exactly, Dude, he's having really 642 00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:49,040 Speaker 1: make it in this life. Okay, okay, Okay, we're losing 643 00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 1: the thread here. Nebraska is a great job. I'm glad 644 00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:54,480 Speaker 1: that we all agree it's probably the best available job. 645 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:58,080 Speaker 1: I'm glad that we agreed and ended this conversation on that. Now, 646 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 1: let's talk about the biggest game of the weekend. You 647 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:07,920 Speaker 1: already know, man, a little big tin football in there, 648 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:10,839 Speaker 1: and I cannot help it. As we sit here and 649 00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 1: it's finally some cold weather in Louisiana. Uh, it feels 650 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:17,239 Speaker 1: very holiday like right now already. I've got a bit 651 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 1: of Thanksgiving senioritis kicking in. Uh. There is nothing that 652 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 1: feels more like a Norman Rockwell painting. Then undefeated Ohio 653 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:32,280 Speaker 1: State against undefeated Michigan, both teams in the top five, 654 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:37,360 Speaker 1: freezing cold weather on outdoor battle, a Michigan team that 655 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:41,440 Speaker 1: wants to run the ball with elite old line play. 656 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 1: It is a thing of beauty. It is Christmas, it 657 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:48,480 Speaker 1: is Thanksgiving, it is football at its core, It is 658 00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 1: the nineteen fifties. It is a a mythological version of 659 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:56,000 Speaker 1: America that never quite existed. And I cannot wait to 660 00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 1: watch these two two teams do battle this weekend. The 661 00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:04,360 Speaker 1: question is what's the deal with Blake corm because it 662 00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:07,240 Speaker 1: does feel like a lot of this may come down 663 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:12,000 Speaker 1: to that and Michigan offensive tackle Ryan Hayes. Aaron may 664 00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 1: have slipped up in the media bit this week unless 665 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:18,840 Speaker 1: he's playing a little next level game. He told a 666 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,960 Speaker 1: reporter quote on Blake or Um quote, he's a great player, 667 00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 1: but everybody else is gonna have to step up with 668 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 1: him out. I don't know that or not, but he did. 669 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:34,879 Speaker 1: He did say that Aaron can Michigan win if Blake 670 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:38,880 Speaker 1: Korum doesn't play. No, I don't think Michigan wins regardless 671 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,320 Speaker 1: of Blake corn was healthy or not healthy. To be honest, 672 00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:43,360 Speaker 1: I think this is and I know you say freezing 673 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 1: cold weather. I think the highest like fifty degrees, so 674 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:50,239 Speaker 1: it actually should be at day. Yeah, it's not gonna 675 00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:51,680 Speaker 1: be snowing like it was last year in the game. 676 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 1: So Ohio State fans are jumping up and down right now, 677 00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:56,799 Speaker 1: it does look like it's gonna be a little bit 678 00:35:56,840 --> 00:36:00,319 Speaker 1: of rain on Friday that may leak a little bit 679 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:03,840 Speaker 1: into Saturday. Uh. And it is a leven named kickoff, 680 00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:06,920 Speaker 1: so it maybe a little bit wet. So that's that's 681 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:09,200 Speaker 1: the issue right now. Like for Ohio State fans, it's 682 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:12,800 Speaker 1: you know, praying, hoping and praying and wishing that the 683 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:15,200 Speaker 1: weather does stay away because if it does, like like 684 00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:17,400 Speaker 1: we just talked about the reason why I put a 685 00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 1: somewhat significant bet on Old Miss for Thursday night, Old 686 00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:24,360 Speaker 1: Miss can run the football. Uh, Missippi State, that's not 687 00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 1: what they want to do. So if it's raining, obviously, 688 00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:28,719 Speaker 1: picked the team that's more physical, Pick the team that 689 00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:30,680 Speaker 1: can run the football. And the same thing can be 690 00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:32,799 Speaker 1: said for this game. The reason why Michigan dominated last 691 00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:36,319 Speaker 1: year it was cold. They are more physical upfront, their 692 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 1: style play. It was at home in the Big House. 693 00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:41,360 Speaker 1: They dominate, that dominated, They end up obviously going on 694 00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:43,840 Speaker 1: to win the Big Ten, going to the playoffs. That's 695 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 1: that these are two very very different football teams. Ohio 696 00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,799 Speaker 1: State wants to be more finesse. Michigan wants to be 697 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 1: more physical, and as they should, the offensive line is tremendous. 698 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:54,080 Speaker 1: They they are going to be one of the best, 699 00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:57,120 Speaker 1: if not the best offensive lines this entire season, and 700 00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,239 Speaker 1: they've they've shown it week in week out. But if 701 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:02,440 Speaker 1: you don't have for him and and something I've hit 702 00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:04,840 Speaker 1: on a ba jillion times a season, and you rely 703 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,120 Speaker 1: on J. J. McCarthy to win you the football game, 704 00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:10,920 Speaker 1: it is not going to happen. Verse this year's Ohio 705 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:14,880 Speaker 1: State defense, who has been more physical upfront, that's been 706 00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:17,640 Speaker 1: better overall, that has shown a little bit of weaknesses 707 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 1: against the past vertically down the field. But that's not 708 00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:22,880 Speaker 1: what Michigan can do. JJ is a guy that throws 709 00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:24,919 Speaker 1: a drag route, he throws a quick out, he throws 710 00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:28,719 Speaker 1: the tailback screen. That is his comfort zone. You're not 711 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:30,560 Speaker 1: all of a sudden in the twelfth game of the 712 00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 1: season gonna say, Okay, j J, guess what. You haven't 713 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:35,800 Speaker 1: done it all year, But let's start throwing some daggers 714 00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,560 Speaker 1: and posts and goes and corners and put you into 715 00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:41,880 Speaker 1: that situation like you are who you are at this 716 00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:45,360 Speaker 1: point the season in Michigan is not that type of 717 00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:49,239 Speaker 1: football team. So yes, I am worried about Michigan and 718 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:52,080 Speaker 1: what they can do um and and their defense has 719 00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:56,080 Speaker 1: been great, but once again, who they face? Man, who 720 00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:58,759 Speaker 1: is who is Michigan really face? That is to the 721 00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:02,400 Speaker 1: caliber of Ohio State offense and and C J. C J. 722 00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:08,680 Speaker 1: Stroud and company, no one would be Taliah Tongue Valoa 723 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:12,160 Speaker 1: maybe just in terms of best quarterback that they faced. 724 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:15,440 Speaker 1: And look, uh that that's another by the way, Rick Sanchez, 725 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:17,400 Speaker 1: before I forget in the chats, as Ryan haynes O 726 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 1: tagle Ryan Hayes that his quote was an answer to 727 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:23,120 Speaker 1: a question of what if Blake is out? So for 728 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:28,920 Speaker 1: whatever uh that is worth, he was responding to that. Um. 729 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 1: But both these teams are coming out of battles like 730 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 1: like Talia and Maryland actually gave Ohio State a bit 731 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:37,640 Speaker 1: of a fight last week, and then obviously Illinois gave 732 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,239 Speaker 1: everything that Michigan wanted and then some of course played 733 00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:42,640 Speaker 1: Korham not there in the second half. I guess, yeah, 734 00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:45,160 Speaker 1: the the the the question is, I know that Ohio 735 00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:48,600 Speaker 1: States defense is improved this year, Ann Murray. But in 736 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:51,040 Speaker 1: the same breath as we asked who is Michigan played, 737 00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:55,720 Speaker 1: we can kind of say who as Ohio State played, 738 00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:57,360 Speaker 1: and we can point to a note name game in 739 00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 1: which the defense was dominant, but the Notre Dame offense 740 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:03,720 Speaker 1: was not the Notre Dame offense that USC is gonna 741 00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:07,719 Speaker 1: see Saturday. Like, there is a direct correlation between Notre 742 00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 1: Dame being like, Okay, no, we're just gonna start pounding 743 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:12,719 Speaker 1: it and the recent run they have been on they 744 00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:16,880 Speaker 1: were still trying to run Tommy Reeves Tyler Buckner like 745 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:20,480 Speaker 1: more of a spread attack, where they finally realized they 746 00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:21,919 Speaker 1: just need to go a bit more old school rely 747 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,480 Speaker 1: on their offensive line. And so my question is, yes, 748 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:27,719 Speaker 1: the stats are better for Ohio State this year. They're 749 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 1: up to number nine in total defensive the country from 750 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:33,239 Speaker 1: fifty nine last year. Um their pressure rank when it 751 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 1: comes to passing, which shouldn't matter too much of this game, 752 00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:39,359 Speaker 1: is up to number two from number thirty eight last year. 753 00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:43,360 Speaker 1: But last year this Michigan Old line, which one the 754 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:47,840 Speaker 1: Joe Moore Award and which is again fan freaking tastic. 755 00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:51,600 Speaker 1: This year they put they dominated House States Vince line 756 00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:53,960 Speaker 1: they ran for seven point two yards to carry. They 757 00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:59,440 Speaker 1: ran for two this year. That Wolverine O line. They 758 00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 1: run in side zone or some variation of inside zone 759 00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:06,040 Speaker 1: air and forty of the time so so they're not 760 00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:07,960 Speaker 1: really hiding what they want to do. And the only 761 00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 1: reason that works is because as a group. It's kind 762 00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:13,080 Speaker 1: of funny. The Ohio State offensive line actually has more 763 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 1: kind of NFL talent on it, but michigan zoe line 764 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:20,759 Speaker 1: is the ultimate. The whole is greater than the sum 765 00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:22,600 Speaker 1: of its parts. And if you think about an no 766 00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:25,800 Speaker 1: line like a fist, right, I don't care how big 767 00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:29,680 Speaker 1: all your fingers are, if you can't coordinate them into 768 00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:31,839 Speaker 1: you know where everybody's on the same page, where you're 769 00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:34,360 Speaker 1: not gonna be able to get anything done. I wonder, 770 00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:38,480 Speaker 1: for all the improvement, can Ohio States d line and 771 00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:41,760 Speaker 1: defense hold up this year and avoid land in Michigan 772 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,120 Speaker 1: control the game, because that's gonna be the way to 773 00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:47,719 Speaker 1: make up for Marvin Harrison Jr. And c J. Stroud 774 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:50,480 Speaker 1: and all these incredible skilled players that they have. I 775 00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:53,400 Speaker 1: would believe at least would be that Michigan offense basically 776 00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:57,400 Speaker 1: dictating the pace of the game. Yeah, can you dictate 777 00:40:57,400 --> 00:41:00,320 Speaker 1: the pace of the game? Can you put c J? 778 00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:03,520 Speaker 1: Shrouded them into third and long situations? Make them one dimensional? 779 00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:05,320 Speaker 1: You know what does the Ohiouse sate struggle with this season? 780 00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:08,720 Speaker 1: At times it's themselves being physical and running the football. 781 00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 1: Can you win first and second down? I think for 782 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:13,840 Speaker 1: Michigan on both sides of the football, that's gonna be 783 00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:17,080 Speaker 1: the key. Can you get to third ad manageable? Because 784 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:20,279 Speaker 1: you don't want J. J. McCarthy getting into situations where 785 00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:22,560 Speaker 1: he has to take four, you know, five steps, seven 786 00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:26,319 Speaker 1: step drops rounder center and then throwing more sophisticated route 787 00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:28,560 Speaker 1: concepts down the field. Can you get to third and 788 00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:31,279 Speaker 1: manageable where you can still run the football. Possibly he 789 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:33,720 Speaker 1: can use his legs to get the first down, or 790 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:36,520 Speaker 1: you're in the sandbox of what he likes to do. 791 00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 1: Throw the quick game, get the ball off his hands 792 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:41,479 Speaker 1: nice and easy, and then get first downs that way, 793 00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:44,600 Speaker 1: so for them win first and second down. The same 794 00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:46,640 Speaker 1: thing on defense? Can you win first and second down? 795 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:50,600 Speaker 1: Can you essentially eliminate and make Ohio State one dimensional? 796 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:53,080 Speaker 1: Which we've seen from this offense at times this year? 797 00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 1: There there have been multiple times with this offensive on 798 00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:58,640 Speaker 1: top and physical, they've been made one dimensional. And I 799 00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:01,800 Speaker 1: think if Michigan can do that with their talented defensive line, 800 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:04,120 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, you put C. J. Stroud 801 00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:06,560 Speaker 1: into that situation where he's having to take five and 802 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:08,880 Speaker 1: seven step drops from the gun, and then you know, 803 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:10,719 Speaker 1: you allow your defensive line to essentially go out there 804 00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:12,399 Speaker 1: and feast and see if you can get a couple 805 00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:14,719 Speaker 1: of sacks. So that's the name of the game. That's 806 00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:17,160 Speaker 1: it plans. So it is an easy, easy game plan 807 00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:20,920 Speaker 1: for Michigan. Michigan, excuse me. Win the early downs on 808 00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:24,000 Speaker 1: both sides. You will have a chance. If you lose 809 00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:27,680 Speaker 1: early downs, you will get in alive on both sides 810 00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:29,480 Speaker 1: of the football. Because you do not want to put 811 00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:32,320 Speaker 1: Ohio Satan in a situation where they're having success running 812 00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:34,440 Speaker 1: the football, because then you have to put a safety 813 00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:38,200 Speaker 1: in the box. And Marvin Harrison Jr. And for goodness sakes, 814 00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:41,520 Speaker 1: can we please please see Jackson Smith and jig by 815 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 1: this game. Maybe they've just been holding him out. I 816 00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:45,840 Speaker 1: don't know what the hell is going on here. We 817 00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:54,520 Speaker 1: ain't gonna find out to kick off, but it's happening 818 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:58,640 Speaker 1: this week. Shut your face, Jackson Smith and Jigba is 819 00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:01,799 Speaker 1: gonna come out there and half eight catches for a 820 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,759 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty and two touchdowns.

Uh dee we 858 00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:58,759 Speaker 1: says uh Iowa is seriously back to back bit ten 859 00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:01,080 Speaker 1: West champs. Let that sink in. Well, it could be 860 00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:05,680 Speaker 1: they control their own destiny. But this actually brings up 861 00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:10,280 Speaker 1: an interesting point that I read uh in the Columbus Dispatch, 862 00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:12,400 Speaker 1: which is a great take, and Brom, I'd love to 863 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:15,880 Speaker 1: get your opinion on this as well. Um, they basically 864 00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:18,439 Speaker 1: kind of call up the point that enjoy this game 865 00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:22,000 Speaker 1: because in the future, this game could feel less than 866 00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:24,520 Speaker 1: it does this weekend. And and and look, it will 867 00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:27,359 Speaker 1: not work out this way most years, but let's look 868 00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:29,560 Speaker 1: forward into the big tent future where they are getting 869 00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:32,640 Speaker 1: rid of divisions. If this was the setting a couple 870 00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:35,080 Speaker 1: of years from now, Aaron, you would have these two 871 00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:37,640 Speaker 1: teams playing this week, and then you would have these 872 00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:41,480 Speaker 1: two teams immediately turning around and playing again next week. 873 00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 1: And then with the twelve team playoff, they could even 874 00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:47,719 Speaker 1: potentially meet in the playoff for a third time, and 875 00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:50,160 Speaker 1: that would definitely take away some of the all or 876 00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:53,480 Speaker 1: nothing electricity that we are feeling in this game. And 877 00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:55,319 Speaker 1: then so I started to think about this, and I'm like, 878 00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:59,200 Speaker 1: wait a second, Yes, division lists is the best way 879 00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:02,480 Speaker 1: to try to herman, from a fair standpoint, who the 880 00:46:02,520 --> 00:46:06,160 Speaker 1: best team in your conference is. But is it the 881 00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:10,839 Speaker 1: most fun? Like is it the best for football? Like? 882 00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:12,560 Speaker 1: What you can do? What you do? You know, what 883 00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:14,600 Speaker 1: you can do? You know you could do t Bob, 884 00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:16,719 Speaker 1: But I think this is an interesting topic, especially for 885 00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:19,719 Speaker 1: the Big Ten, is do you move this game out 886 00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:22,000 Speaker 1: of the slot that it's in right now if you're 887 00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:24,640 Speaker 1: anticipate and they said they want to keep it, they 888 00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:26,960 Speaker 1: said they want to keep it. I think I think 889 00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:28,440 Speaker 1: to me, that's the that's the way to answer that. 890 00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:31,520 Speaker 1: I think you move the game up to a spot 891 00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:33,800 Speaker 1: where it's not Okay, we both know we're gonna be 892 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:37,080 Speaker 1: playing next week. That's the more important game. We can 893 00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:39,120 Speaker 1: kind of coach, who really gives a damn who wins 894 00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:41,920 Speaker 1: this football game? You put it in say week seven, 895 00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:45,759 Speaker 1: and you all of a sudden, doesn't it makes a 896 00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:47,359 Speaker 1: little bit more portant. That to me, that's the only 897 00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:49,400 Speaker 1: way to make it happen. And then let's not forget you. 898 00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:52,960 Speaker 1: You're adding you are adding USC And obviously we'll see 899 00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:54,120 Speaker 1: what the hell goes on with U C l A, 900 00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:58,600 Speaker 1: possibly Oregon in Washington. More competition and that conference may 901 00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:00,239 Speaker 1: make that game a little bit more portant on the 902 00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:02,200 Speaker 1: line too, So we'll see if that facts. But I 903 00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:05,440 Speaker 1: think the one thing that easily makes it saves yourself 904 00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:08,560 Speaker 1: if you do go to the division lists is just 905 00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:12,200 Speaker 1: moving the game to a different date. It is interesting though, 906 00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:14,160 Speaker 1: like the NFL is not division lists, right, and it 907 00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:17,000 Speaker 1: works perfectly because you have garbage divisions where teams get 908 00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:19,040 Speaker 1: to hold on hope that maybe they can do something 909 00:47:19,840 --> 00:47:22,440 Speaker 1: because we're like like Iowa fans are way more locked 910 00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:24,719 Speaker 1: in right now this weekend than they should have any 911 00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:26,839 Speaker 1: right to be. And again, it works in other sports 912 00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:28,560 Speaker 1: where you play a million games. But I can't help 913 00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:32,560 Speaker 1: but wonder in football is it more fun to have divisions? 914 00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:34,279 Speaker 1: Brom I'm sorry here, you're trying to click in and 915 00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:36,960 Speaker 1: we keep talking. What do you think? I think if 916 00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:39,719 Speaker 1: the TV networks could have Ohio State Michigan play every week, 917 00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:46,080 Speaker 1: they would Who wants to watch Michigan? Who wants to 918 00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:50,399 Speaker 1: watch Michigan or Ohio State play Iowa next weekend? Not fair? 919 00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:59,840 Speaker 1: People would rather yes, obviously, It's like it is not 920 00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:02,560 Speaker 1: as fun as the idea of winner take all for 921 00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:07,040 Speaker 1: the one, but no one is excited about watching Ohio 922 00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:13,000 Speaker 1: State play Iowa next week and there's a zero percent chance, 923 00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:16,799 Speaker 1: Like the idea that they would play each other, play 924 00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:19,680 Speaker 1: each other and then the playoffs would see them together 925 00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:22,400 Speaker 1: is like so not seated together. No no, no no, no, 926 00:48:22,560 --> 00:48:24,960 Speaker 1: I mean like just the potential of they could like, 927 00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:26,919 Speaker 1: you know, let's say they were both just really good 928 00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:28,960 Speaker 1: that year and and and whatever. That'd probably be tight 929 00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:31,120 Speaker 1: if they met for a third And my answer is 930 00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:35,600 Speaker 1: that would be That's like basically my answer when it 931 00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:37,640 Speaker 1: comes to the playoffs, Like you're like, what would happen 932 00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:39,760 Speaker 1: if this game doesn't matter and then there's another awesome 933 00:48:39,760 --> 00:48:41,440 Speaker 1: football game. I was like, well, that would be tight 934 00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:47,200 Speaker 1: because I like big time football. That's fair. Murray Mania says, 935 00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:50,120 Speaker 1: who's this Baggins guy?

Um, so we'll probably have to push back 958 00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:12,400 Speaker 1: USC Notre Dame uh to Friday maybe. But it was 959 00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:15,040 Speaker 1: announced today. If you love you a sports and c 960 00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:17,520 Speaker 1: double a football, like I think probably most of us do, 961 00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:21,600 Speaker 1: if you're here in this chat, um, it was expected 962 00:50:22,120 --> 00:50:24,520 Speaker 1: to be out by summer twenty twenty three. Now I 963 00:50:24,560 --> 00:50:27,400 Speaker 1: say expected in quotes because there's everything official. They're right. 964 00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:30,040 Speaker 1: In fact, Daryl Holt, the e A Sports vice president 965 00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:32,680 Speaker 1: general manager, says that was conjecture. It has now been 966 00:50:32,680 --> 00:50:36,040 Speaker 1: announced that they are aiming for summer twenty twenty four. 967 00:50:36,440 --> 00:50:39,680 Speaker 1: It's expected to include all hundred and thirty four FPS teams, 968 00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:42,560 Speaker 1: and Holt says, look, the game is not delayed. The 969 00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:45,560 Speaker 1: thing is, we're building it from the ground up. We 970 00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:47,360 Speaker 1: don't want it to be a clone of Madden or 971 00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:49,600 Speaker 1: old n C double a code. Take that for whatever 972 00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:51,320 Speaker 1: it's worth. I mean, I have to imagine it shares 973 00:50:51,360 --> 00:50:53,759 Speaker 1: a lot of code with Madden UM, but they don't 974 00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:56,080 Speaker 1: want it to feel like a re skin. For a 975 00:50:56,120 --> 00:50:58,719 Speaker 1: couple of years now, teams have been sending them audio, 976 00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:01,000 Speaker 1: you know, stadium in for ration, all of this stuff 977 00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:03,200 Speaker 1: to try to make that game day experience. He talks 978 00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:07,640 Speaker 1: about how they are really trying to nail Dynasty Mode. 979 00:51:07,880 --> 00:51:11,120 Speaker 1: That's like their core core focus, and it makes sense 980 00:51:11,239 --> 00:51:13,279 Speaker 1: right with n I L you would now have to 981 00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:15,000 Speaker 1: count for that. In Dynasty Mode. You need to be 982 00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:16,560 Speaker 1: able to raise money. You need to be able to 983 00:51:16,560 --> 00:51:19,560 Speaker 1: pay players like that's gonna be fascinating transfer portal. You 984 00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:21,680 Speaker 1: have to recruit high schoolers, you have to create your team, 985 00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:23,840 Speaker 1: you have to create other teams. That's a lot to 986 00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:26,680 Speaker 1: try to program. Now, I wouldn't be surprised if they 987 00:51:26,680 --> 00:51:28,360 Speaker 1: wanted to code in the ability for you to have 988 00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:31,959 Speaker 1: your school like switch conferences and stuff right like, so 989 00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:35,400 Speaker 1: as college football changes drastically, I do take all this 990 00:51:35,520 --> 00:51:38,040 Speaker 1: and face value that there's a lot to do. But 991 00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:45,600 Speaker 1: as Ryan Brumley maintains, how do you pay the players? Um, 992 00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:50,080 Speaker 1: they say that you know they they they and and 993 00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:51,799 Speaker 1: seeking to get the n L rights of players. They 994 00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:55,880 Speaker 1: can be done group licensing or individual licensing, but that 995 00:51:55,960 --> 00:52:01,120 Speaker 1: doesn't really answer anything has to be put. It's a project. 996 00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:04,160 Speaker 1: They're just trying to get an individual contract from every 997 00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:05,560 Speaker 1: player to be able to use them, I mean, be 998 00:52:05,560 --> 00:52:07,280 Speaker 1: an absolute Well, it's like do some of the biggest 999 00:52:07,280 --> 00:52:09,680 Speaker 1: players hold out? Like remember Michael Jordan was never in 1000 00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:12,400 Speaker 1: our video games growing up. Barry Bonds wasn't in a 1001 00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:14,400 Speaker 1: lot of the baseball games growing up because he was like, 1002 00:52:14,480 --> 00:52:16,480 Speaker 1: neph you, I'm not agreed to this, Like you gotta 1003 00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:20,319 Speaker 1: pay me more than you pay Tony ku coach if 1004 00:52:20,360 --> 00:52:21,520 Speaker 1: you want me to be in a video game with 1005 00:52:21,600 --> 00:52:27,279 Speaker 1: Tony Coo coach. Sorry tone, um So, I do you 1006 00:52:27,360 --> 00:52:29,840 Speaker 1: have any idea because Brom, you feel like this game, 1007 00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:33,000 Speaker 1: give the take, give the people your take. I just 1008 00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:35,000 Speaker 1: want to take where I'd hate to be, where I'd 1009 00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:37,279 Speaker 1: love to be. Wrong but I just I don't see it. 1010 00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:42,080 Speaker 1: I don't see a world where a game is collectively 1011 00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:46,640 Speaker 1: like collectively licensed with a hundred and thirty four schools 1012 00:52:46,680 --> 00:52:50,320 Speaker 1: and um, so do the math hundred thirty four schools 1013 00:52:50,320 --> 00:52:52,120 Speaker 1: times let's say a hundred players. That just say a 1014 00:52:52,160 --> 00:53:00,000 Speaker 1: hundred players? Yeah, yeah's so that's around okay, So that's 1015 00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:05,400 Speaker 1: ten thousand players vide third schools eight players. I'll believe 1016 00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:09,640 Speaker 1: what I see him A lot of players payers and 1017 00:53:09,680 --> 00:53:14,400 Speaker 1: say how much you play? Say you pay? There's no 1018 00:53:14,760 --> 00:53:19,279 Speaker 1: just in cool fifty two million dollars. That's problem. So 1019 00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:21,480 Speaker 1: like NFL, we would always get a nice little ten 1020 00:53:21,480 --> 00:53:24,400 Speaker 1: tho dollar check from Madden. But that's thirty two teams 1021 00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:27,480 Speaker 1: and fifty three roster. That's about what sixteen million dollars. 1022 00:53:28,080 --> 00:53:29,840 Speaker 1: I am a genius. I just really did that in 1023 00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:34,279 Speaker 1: my head right now, So go check me for the show. 1024 00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:37,520 Speaker 1: So it's about sixteen million dollars, which is significantly less 1025 00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:40,680 Speaker 1: than paying half that money to that amount of players, 1026 00:53:40,719 --> 00:53:42,279 Speaker 1: which ends up being fifty two million dollars. So what 1027 00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:44,480 Speaker 1: do you pay the kids? A thousand bucks each? I agree? Like, 1028 00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:46,600 Speaker 1: if I'm c J. Stroud, you ain't given me only 1029 00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:49,680 Speaker 1: a thousand dollars to be, you know, one of the 1030 00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:51,920 Speaker 1: main guys on your video game. It's going to be 1031 00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:54,880 Speaker 1: a struggle to pay the big boys what they deserve 1032 00:53:54,960 --> 00:53:56,799 Speaker 1: to be on Madden or or n c A or 1033 00:53:56,840 --> 00:53:58,200 Speaker 1: do they just say screw it, man, I get to 1034 00:53:58,200 --> 00:54:01,239 Speaker 1: be on a video game. Just give me anything. I'm 1035 00:54:01,239 --> 00:54:03,920 Speaker 1: happy to be on there, like I'm getting Like if 1036 00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:08,799 Speaker 1: you're CJ straight, like you're you're getting enough money. I 1037 00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:10,799 Speaker 1: would just say, I get to be on a video game. 1038 00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:13,320 Speaker 1: I want to say back, I grew up playing it. 1039 00:54:13,320 --> 00:54:16,120 Speaker 1: It's cool that I get to beyond it. So I'll 1040 00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:18,120 Speaker 1: take whatever you give me. Let's just what I need 1041 00:54:18,160 --> 00:54:20,799 Speaker 1: to sign. We after we go. But I'm gonna say 1042 00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:23,120 Speaker 1: I'll believe it when I see it. I don't know 1043 00:54:23,160 --> 00:54:26,160 Speaker 1: about you, Aaron, but I did believe. I mean, for me, 1044 00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:28,200 Speaker 1: being on a video game was one of the coolest 1045 00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:30,600 Speaker 1: moments in my life. I love video games. I've always 1046 00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:33,520 Speaker 1: on video games. I grew up playing them constantly. Nothing 1047 00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:35,719 Speaker 1: made me happier. They would rain outside to my mom 1048 00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:39,680 Speaker 1: couldn't force me outside, like it's my favorite. It was 1049 00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:43,279 Speaker 1: so cool seeing myself represented digitally. So I wonder, I 1050 00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:46,440 Speaker 1: wonder I don't know, but these damn kids nowadays, and 1051 00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:49,640 Speaker 1: they're goddamn in I hell deals all that care about 1052 00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:55,360 Speaker 1: money here, Murray, what the hell, man, damn fabrics. It's 1053 00:54:55,360 --> 00:54:58,600 Speaker 1: with N I L. It's this is it's hilarious. These 1054 00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:02,080 Speaker 1: kids act like they can't get through a semester without 1055 00:55:02,080 --> 00:55:04,400 Speaker 1: getting paid. Like I like, I have my n L 1056 00:55:04,440 --> 00:55:09,080 Speaker 1: a company, we paid kids. We've paid kids over at 1057 00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:11,440 Speaker 1: N I L. And how you're actually bitching about N 1058 00:55:11,480 --> 00:55:14,880 Speaker 1: I L is that I'm not bitchy about it. I 1059 00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:17,600 Speaker 1: think it's I'm not bitchy about an L. I'm just saying, 1060 00:55:17,600 --> 00:55:20,800 Speaker 1: because you're comparing two different eras of football players, that 1061 00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:23,400 Speaker 1: these players literally feel like they can't get through a 1062 00:55:23,440 --> 00:55:26,120 Speaker 1: semester without getting paid. Like I get hit up all 1063 00:55:26,160 --> 00:55:27,680 Speaker 1: the time, like, hey, when's my next check coming in? 1064 00:55:27,760 --> 00:55:29,200 Speaker 1: Like I need some money for this, this and this 1065 00:55:29,239 --> 00:55:32,279 Speaker 1: and this.
