1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox

2
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Welcome to the program. It's our two Dan

3
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:10,040
Speaker 1: and the Danette. Although we're down to Danette. Fritzie is

4
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:15,040
Speaker 1: taking his son to Syracuse as he starts his college career. There.

5
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:18,560
Speaker 1: Spent a lot of time first hour talking about the

6
00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:23,640
Speaker 1: Lakers Blazers and how surprising that was from a variety

7
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 1: of fronts at The Lakers got behind early, didn't shoot

8
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 1: well at all, Portland didn't play a great game, but

9
00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:33,560
Speaker 1: they got They're a better team top to bottom, and

10
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:36,280
Speaker 1: they can at least rely on some players. I think

11
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:39,479
Speaker 1: Lebron goes into every game each night going I have

12
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 1: no idea who's going to step up, but somebody better

13
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,920
Speaker 1: step up. And now you have the Lakers attention. If

14
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,199
Speaker 1: you didn't have it before, you certainly do now. The

15
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 1: Bucks with a big win that was surprising yesterday afternoon

16
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 1: as they rough up the Magic beat the Bucks. Last

17
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 1: night you had Oklahoma City getting beaten by the Rockets.

18

Speaker 1: Carolina head coach will join us coming up. He's got

26
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 1: his first game against Syracuse that is slated for September

27
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:34,319
Speaker 1: twelfth in Chapel Hill. We'll also talk to coach Saban.

28
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 1: Nick Saban will join us coming up. We were talking

29
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 1: about this prior to the show because we had the

30
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,759
Speaker 1: conversation with Josh Jacobs, the running back at Alabama last

31
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,479
Speaker 1: year when he said that coach Saban has a good

32
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 1: sense of humor and actually made reference to D's nuts

33
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 1: with TWA and Josh Jacobs, and I gotta bring that

34
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 1: up to him. I think, right, Seten, he's heard that

35
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 1: by now, right, that's gotten back to coach Saban. I

36
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 1: don't know, you don't think I don't you know. Coach

37
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: Saban he created headlines when he said he didn't even

38
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 1: have an email. Yeah, didn't have an email address A right,

39
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: and people are like, what, there's no way, I mean,

40
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 1: he's turning sixty nine here in October and he didn't

41
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,239
Speaker 1: have an email address, but that there was like headlines

42
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 1: all over the place about coach Saban says D's nuts. Yeah, yeah, pulling.

43
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 1: I don't know. If I'm Coach Saban's assistant, I go

44
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,520
Speaker 1: through what's going on to say, coach, we have your

45
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 1: meeting with the special teams, and there I have an

46
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,799
Speaker 1: update on the Dan Patrick D's nuts situation. I don't

47
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 1: think he's No one's bringing that to his desk. But

48
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 1: what about like you're just casually sitting out, you're having

49
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 1: lunch and there's like a break in the day and like, hey,

50
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 1: somebody's checking to it. They're like, ah, coach, look at this. No,

51
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:49,959
Speaker 1: I don't think so. I don't. I think Nick Saban

52
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 1: just locked in a room or something. And I don't

53
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:56,519
Speaker 1: think he's you know, he's aware of social media. Yes,

54
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 1: we have Coach Saban on probably twice a year for

55
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 1: the past decade. Do you have a good relationship. Are

56
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 1: you gonna lead the interview with it? No? No No, No,

57
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 1: it's some other stuff. I'm gonna go later in the

58
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 1: interview with coach sick. Yeah, just I can't worry how

59
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,520
Speaker 1: to figure that? Yeah, I know, coach, I was just

60
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 1: thinking yeah, I'm sweating a little bit. Okay, let me

61
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 1: let me get to the North Carolina head coach Mac Brown.

62
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,680
Speaker 1: Who is You're my same age as coach Saban, aren't you?

63
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: Mac uh? Dan? I'll be sixty nine at the end

64
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 1: of this month, So yes, all right, I like that.

65
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,079
Speaker 1: Do you have an email address? What I do is

66
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 1: I'm not near as smart as Nick. I answer my

67
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 1: own email, and he's got somebody else answering it. But

68
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: a great thing if you say I don't tax I

69
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 1: don't answer the phone. I don't have a cell phone,

70
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 1: I don't have an email, so don't contact. That's it.

71
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 1: I may go to all that today. I may cancel

72
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 1: my email after you got Syracuse on September twelfth at home.

73
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 1: How confident are you that you're going to play that game, Dan,

74
00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: I think we're going to play. And my job still

75
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 1: lead this team, so I've got to everything I do

76
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: is to prepare to play. What our presidents have said,

77
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 1: and I'm very proud of their stance and they've talked

78
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 1: to our medical experts, is that they haven't said we're

79
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:18,159
Speaker 1: going to play. They've said that we're moving forward trying

80
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 1: to make sure that it's safe enough to play. And

81
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 1: I think that's good. Where we have not had positives

82
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 1: on the football field. We've practiced now probably eleven times,

83
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 1: and it's good and kids are staying safe. Where all

84
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,840
Speaker 1: of us have issues is when they leave our football

85
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:39,160
Speaker 1: area of the complex and they have their normal social

86
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,679
Speaker 1: lives and things have change. They can't have that normal

87
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 1: social life anymore. And also if the students are on

88
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 1: campus but not going to classes, I would think that

89
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 1: that helps your football team staying safe, you know, and

90
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 1: not being out in the you know, in the general

91
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 1: population there that you can almost keep them in a

92
00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 1: bubble of swords on campus. Is that the game plan, Dan,

93
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 1: it is basketball is prudent that that works. And even

94
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,039
Speaker 1: when we were going to class the last week, the

95
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 1: classes were very safe. Somebody was holding the door. That

96
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 1: were probably a third of the normal people in the classroom,

97
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 1: the normal students. They were social distance. They all had

98
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:20,479
Speaker 1: masks or our players told me they felt very comfortable.

99
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 1: I think again, Dan, our problem is when you get

100
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 1: outside of football, outside of the classroom, and kids are

101
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 1: going to be kids, and we're all telling them wear

102
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,359
Speaker 1: a mask if you'll do that, and social distance, be

103
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,279
Speaker 1: around people that are wearing a mask, wash your hens,

104
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,919
Speaker 1: sanitize everything. The universities are trying to do everything in

105
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 1: their power to help, and now we've got to have

106
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 1: the students to step up and help us as well.

107
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 1: Why is it the ACC Big twelve in sec are

108
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 1: still trying to play, planning on playing, and the PAC

109
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 1: twelve in Big ten or none. It seems to me

110
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 1: it's just the difference in medical opinions. The medical experts

111
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: seem to think it's not as safe for the Big

112
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 1: ten and the PAC twelve, and the medical experts here

113
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,679
Speaker 1: and the Triangle is one of the top medical centers

114
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: in the world. We have great medical experts and they've

115
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 1: done everything that we do. Dan they've they've touched it.

116
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: They're talking about how many fans can be in the

117
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,839
Speaker 1: stands where they said, how we eat, how we have

118
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 1: our team meetings. They have looked at and approved everything.

119
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 1: And as long as these brilliant people think that it's

120
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: safe for these young people to play, the kids want

121
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 1: to play, the coaches want to play out. We had

122
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 1: our best practice yesterday and I wish that our fans

123
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:39,040
Speaker 1: and media could be out there to watch. They're excited

124
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 1: and they're having fun and it's probably one of the

125
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 1: few normal things right now in their lives. Excuse me, coach,

126
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 1: have you heard from players parents through this. Yes, We've

127
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 1: tried to keep in constant contact with the parents, and

128
00:06:56,320 --> 00:07:00,200
Speaker 1: even on Monday night, Dan, we had I opened the meeting.

129
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 1: We had a zoom meeting with all of our parents

130
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:04,480
Speaker 1: and we had our doctors on there, we had our

131
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,720
Speaker 1: trainers on there, and they gave them a presentation of

132
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 1: how things are going and what we're doing and why

133
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 1: we're doing it, and then at an hour available for questions.

134
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,960
Speaker 1: So I think you've got to overcommunicate it at this time.

135
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 1: And we've told our players and probably it's a nauseum

136
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,120
Speaker 1: that if you don't feel comfortable, if you don't want

137
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 1: to play, don't practice today, and it's not the best

138
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 1: to get ready for Syracuse. But these times are different

139
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 1: and we have to handle these times differently. And if

140
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 1: you want to opt out, if you don't feel comfortable,

141
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,200
Speaker 1: you don't want to play, you get to keep your scholarship,

142
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: but come back and see us in January or when

143
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:43,360
Speaker 1: this virus goes away. Yeah, And you know, it's it's

144
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 1: really tricky because you can do everything right the athletic

145
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 1: director or the school, the players, but it comes down

146
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 1: to the student body as well. Like you, these players

147
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 1: have got to be diligent in policing themselves. And that's

148
00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: hard to do coach, when you're twenty twenty one, twenty

149
00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 1: two years of age on a college campus. Well it is.

150
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 1: And you and I don't like wearing the mask. You're

151
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 1: you're a very personable guy. You don't like staying away

152
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 1: from people that are friends of yours. And I can't

153
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 1: shake a hand, I can't hug somebody's neck and all

154
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 1: that's different now than it's ever been in our lives before.

155
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,600
Speaker 1: And what we've got to do is show great leadership

156
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 1: for these young people and by doing that, then they've

157
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 1: got to follow us. And I think the other thing

158
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 1: is that it's never been more important to have a

159
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:34,319
Speaker 1: team led team than right now. That when they're away

160
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,560
Speaker 1: from us, we've told them, if you want to play,

161
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,680
Speaker 1: then you social distance, you wear your mask. If you

162
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 1: don't care, then that's okay. But if you want to play,

163
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 1: you've got to do what the medical experts are telling

164
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,720
Speaker 1: you to do, because that's going to be the difference

165
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,319
Speaker 1: when it comes down to when they make a final decision,

166
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,680
Speaker 1: any chance you keep notre dame for good in the

167
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 1: ACC with football, but I would love that. It'd be

168
00:08:56,480 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 1: a win for the ACC. Great program, lead, tremendous brand, nationally,

169
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 1: great TV revenue and market. They do it right. They

170
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 1: go by the rules that they're always going to be good.

171
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:13,439
Speaker 1: So it would be a home run for us if

172
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,560
Speaker 1: we could. What do you have in your office there?

173
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,839
Speaker 1: That the coolest thing you have in the office there

174
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:23,080
Speaker 1: is what the National Championship trophy that's right over my

175
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:28,080
Speaker 1: shoulder that I'm hoping every recruit sees. You should walk

176
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 1: around with that, you know, just like a push cart,

177
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:34,360
Speaker 1: you know, a scooter or something and have that. You

178
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:36,800
Speaker 1: go back to that two thousand and five season, the

179
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: play that Vince Young ran, What was the call? And

180
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: was that a designed play to beat USC? It was

181
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,839
Speaker 1: a design play. It was menu number two because at

182
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 1: that time we were going no huddle because it was

183
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 1: the end of the game and you had to get

184
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 1: the play in very quickly. And I'll never forget it

185
00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,040
Speaker 1: was a play that Vince told us he wanted to

186
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 1: run if we got in that situation, because we said,

187
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 1: what's your best go to play? If we get down

188
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 1: to the end and we have to make a play

189
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 1: in and he said, men, you too, and so we

190
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 1: called it and I'll never forget it. I said, look

191
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 1: quickly and if they're open, throw it. But if not,

192
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 1: your legs are pretty darn good for five yards, so

193
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,960
Speaker 1: don't be hesitant to pull it down and run it.

194
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 1: And he wasn't throwing in, coach, No, he pulled the

195
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 1: old I'm gonna fake it like I'm gonna throw it

196
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 1: and then gotten that ends on very quickly. Why didn't

197
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 1: he work out in the NFL? Do you know? And

198
00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 1: in some ways he did. Dan He was Rookie of

199
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,000
Speaker 1: the Year and made the Pro Bowl a couple of times,

200
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 1: and he helped the Titans get to the playoffs. I

201
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 1: worry sometimes that young people that leave a year early

202
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:54,640
Speaker 1: maybe aren't quite as ready for all the stuff as

203
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:56,680
Speaker 1: much as they are the football. And it was a

204
00:10:56,760 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: very uncomfortable situation too, that coach Fisher didn't want him

205
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 1: Norm Chow. They both wanted Matt Leonard, who is a

206
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 1: great player, but Norm had coach Matt at usc and

207
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 1: but Adams the owner wanted Vince because he was from Houston.

208
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 1: So they were kind of forced into taking him. And

209
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 1: when they said we want Matt Leonard and then you're

210
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 1: forced to take somebody else, they came to me and said,

211
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 1: how are we gonna handle this? And I said, it's

212
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 1: not good. Brother. You better go talk to Vince very

213
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 1: quickly and tell him that the reason it wasn't that

214
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 1: you didn't want Vince. You wanted Matt because he ran

215
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 1: your system and you were very comfortable with him. So

216
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 1: it just didn't start outright. And I don't think it

217
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:40,599
Speaker 1: was ever really good. Has Michael Jordan been to a

218
00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 1: practice He has not. I've seen him in town a

219
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 1: couple of times, and Michael's very supportive, and of course

220
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:50,319
Speaker 1: we all loved the last dance, and he is so competitive.

221
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 1: When I saw him last spring in Jordan brand his

222
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 1: shoes Dan, he's got Michigan, he's got Oklahoma, he's got Florida,

223
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 1: and he's got North Carolina. So here I am the

224
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 1: new coach. And I said, Michael, why did you give

225
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:07,880
Speaker 1: your shoe brown to Oklahoma and to Michigan and Farida? Man?

226
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 1: Why didn't you just give him to us? And he said,

227
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:13,720
Speaker 1: why don't you start winning some games and then we'll

228
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:19,280
Speaker 1: talk about who I thought Yeah, that's fair. Yeah, yeah,

229
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:21,960
Speaker 1: you became now you know what his teammates felt like

230
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,920
Speaker 1: when he was what they did. I said, yes, sir,

231
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:29,800
Speaker 1: good luck and trying to pull this off. Coach. It's

232
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 1: great to talk to you. You've got Syracuse September twelfth

233
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,840
Speaker 1: and Chapel Hill. Great to see you. Hope you're well.

234
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,839
Speaker 1: Thank you, Thanks Dad, I appreciate you. Thanks for having

235
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,679
Speaker 1: me on you keep yourself safe and healthy. Thank you. Coach.

236
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 1: That's Mac Brown. I love what he did against Clemson

237
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 1: last year. I know it didn't work out, but he

238
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 1: went for two. He lost to Clemson twenty one twenty

239
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 1: They went for two instead of that extra point with

240
00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 1: a minute left, and I loved that you were going

241
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,960
Speaker 1: for the wind. I loved it. Maybe it's not the

242
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:03,320
Speaker 1: smartest thing to do, but in the moment. Now, I

243
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 1: didn't like the play that was called, but that's you know,

244
00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: that's a different topic. But I loved that they were

245
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,000
Speaker 1: going to try to beat Clemson and they had Clemson

246
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 1: on the ropes. That was good. It's good to talk

247
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 1: to him. I always enjoyed being around him, and we've

248
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 1: known him probably twenty years, maybe maybe longer. Yeah, Paul,

249
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 1: you know they have a good football program, but those

250
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,880
Speaker 1: uniforms are gorgeous. You know, if they could play as

251
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 1: good as they look, yes, yeah, watch out who has

252
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 1: the widest disparity of how good your uniform is and

253
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 1: how good you play? Vandy? It would probably Vanderbut football,

254
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 1: they have pretty good helmets. You don't like Vandy's uniforms

255
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 1: at all. M mclovin. Do you like those Maryland helmets?

256
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 1: No way too busy average football average helmets. Yeah, it's

257
00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:58,559
Speaker 1: like a confusing helmet. It's I think it's a state

258
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: flag combat Yeah. Yeah, they sent me a helmet and

259
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 1: sent me a jersey. It didn't help my opinion on

260
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:08,439
Speaker 1: those things, like yep, it just reinforced it. Yep, I

261
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:14,439
Speaker 1: don't like those. But who has the great looking uniform

262
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,840
Speaker 1: but they don't play anywhere near as great as they look,

263
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 1: because the Padres are now playing pretty well, and that

264
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, that chocolate brown looks a whole

265
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 1: lot better than it ever. Did they have some uniforms

266
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 1: that really pop there? Yeah, Pa UCLA's uniforms are quite

267
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 1: better than the football team when they go out. The

268
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 1: Blues yea yea. Not a bad football team, just not

269
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 1: a good football too. Yeah, I'm curious. I don't. I

270
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 1: just stumbled upon that. Dave in California. Good morning, Dave.

271
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,120
Speaker 1: What do you have for me today? Morning? Dad? I

272
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 1: appreciate you put me on. It was a great interview

273
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 1: with Matt Brown and how you just say you know

274
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 1: we're playing You said, we're moving forward. And that was

275
00:14:56,120 --> 00:15:00,920
Speaker 1: my question with North Carolina going to fe all online

276
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:02,600
Speaker 1: with more dame that I was sort of shutting it

277
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 1: down for two weeks, with Michigan State going all online

278
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 1: for the semester. You know, do you think that these

279
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 1: college busins now might take a different look with what's

280
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 1: going on since students are coming back? He said, Paul,

281
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 1: he's taking a child the Syracuse. How often are the

282
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 1: general students being tested? You know, I know the football

283
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 1: player you can test them two or three or four

284
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 1: times a week, but how often are the general students

285
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 1: being tested? Yeah, I'm curious about that. And I had

286
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 1: a coach who told me, who said, I said, can

287
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 1: the student population, the general population bring down an entire

288
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 1: football season? And he said yes, that was It didn't

289
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:49,920
Speaker 1: add anything more, just said, yes, that's what it comes

290
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 1: down to. And if you're able to quarantine, put your

291
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 1: football team in a bubble. And you know that the

292
00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:58,960
Speaker 1: other schools are doing the same thing. The fact that

293
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 1: I had a source who said, you know, there's two

294
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 1: things going on right now in college football tuition and

295
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 1: TV tuition. My daughter went to school, but she's not

296
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 1: going to class. But she's going to school because if

297
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 1: they're charging you fifty thousand dollars, they want their fIF

298
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 1: They need the tuition. And then TV these schools need

299
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 1: the TV money as well. That's what's at stake with

300
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:29,160
Speaker 1: college football tuition. Get sean campus and TV and if

301
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 1: you have that acc SEC Big twelve going to have

302
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:37,560
Speaker 1: a big advantage moving forward. They just are rich in

303
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 1: Arizona joins us, Hey Rich, what's on your mind today?

304
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:49,360
Speaker 1: Hey Rich, see your rich update the poll results, mcloven.

305
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 1: Then we'll take a break. We'll hear from Lebron James

306
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 1: when we return. Who should be more worried the Lakers

307
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 1: or the Bucks. It's seventy two Lakers. Yeah, I mean

308
00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 1: I watched the Buck and the Magic, and you know,

309
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:06,800
Speaker 1: Orlando got a lot of contributions from a lot of

310
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,879
Speaker 1: players there, and I still go back to Milwaukee is

311
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 1: so reliant overly reliant on the Greek freak, and Chris

312
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 1: Middleton has got to be an All Star player, but

313
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:20,560
Speaker 1: Eric Bledsoe is their third best player. Malcolm Brogden was

314
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:23,199
Speaker 1: their third best player a year ago, and Brogden was

315
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:28,439
Speaker 1: coming off a fifty forty ninety, so he shot fifty

316
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 1: from the floor, forty from three and ninety from the line.

317
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 1: And there's only been I think ten players are less

318
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,440
Speaker 1: in the history of the game who've done that. Some

319
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,640
Speaker 1: have done it multiple times. But you had you need

320
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:44,680
Speaker 1: the consistency every one of these teams right now. Paul

321
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:48,679
Speaker 1: George Kawhi have to be consistent. Anthony Davis and Lebron

322
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,560
Speaker 1: have to be consistent. CJ McCollum, Dame Lillard got to

323
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 1: be consistent. Westbrook and Harden got to be consistent. Tatum

324
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,040
Speaker 1: and Brown with the Celtics got to be consistent. Seventy

325
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 1: six ers can't be consistent because Simon is out and

326
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 1: now you just have Joel Mbid. Toronto is a little

327
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:07,479
Speaker 1: bit different, and this is why Toronto so dangerous is

328
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,960
Speaker 1: you have guys who aren't great, but you have good

329
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:14,760
Speaker 1: players who are consistent, and that's really important night in

330
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 1: and night out. You know, Lakers got one day to

331
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,640
Speaker 1: adjust to this and figure this out. They play tomorrow night.

332
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 1: I think there's no you know, wait for the weekend

333
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:28,399
Speaker 1: here and nobody's coming to the rescue. You know, Dallas

334
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 1: as porzingis uh and Luca, these two headed monsters have

335
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:36,160
Speaker 1: to be great. And then it comes down to how

336
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,120
Speaker 1: good are your role players? How deep is your team? Yeah, McLevin.

337
00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 1: A lot of people point out yesterday, the Magic beat

338
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 1: the Raptors in game one of their opening Rounds series

339
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 1: last year, and look what happened to the Raptors. Remember

340
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 1: that game Kyle Lowry go for seven. Yeah, so the

341
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,000
Speaker 1: Magic won that game, didn't win another game in the

342
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:51,879
Speaker 1: Raptors won the Towns. So the Bucks shouldn't pan it.

343
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:56,400
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, But you know there's always you start

344
00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 1: to look and go, is there something bigger here? You know,

345
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:02,199
Speaker 1: are there crack and does it develop into something a

346
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 1: little bit larger here? And you know, it's one game.

347
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 1: We are a reactionary sports society. We overreact and we

348
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,920
Speaker 1: think it's a referendum on what is going to happen

349
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,639
Speaker 1: the rest of the season, the rest of the series. Yeah, point,

350
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: I can't help but do that I was watching the

351
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:19,679
Speaker 1: Heat last time, like, Man, they Heat are tough. Jimmy

352
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,600
Speaker 1: Butler's that's old school Jimmy Butler and Bam Auto Bio.

353
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 1: He's yeah, they're they're, they're they're beating a banged up

354
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 1: pacer team. All adipot left buzz kill. So Bone is

355
00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 1: your TJ. Warren bandwagon? Yes, m I'm with Pauli every

356
00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:36,639
Speaker 1: single game I watched. That's the way the rest of

357
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 1: that series. Yeah, playout, no matter what happened. I think

358
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:41,800
Speaker 1: to myself, Man, Jimmy Butler's a really good three point shoter.

359
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:43,920
Speaker 1: Hit two in the fourth quarters. He's a clutch three

360
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,159
Speaker 1: point shoter. He is the worst or one of the

361
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,439
Speaker 1: worst three point shooters in the league with the minimum

362
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 1: of one hundred attempts. I love the Heat. What they've done.

363
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:54,720
Speaker 1: I don't know how they've done it, but they cobbled

364
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,600
Speaker 1: together a lineup and you know, Bam is good. I

365
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:03,160
Speaker 1: love watching dragas play. Tyler Herro is not afraid. You're afraid.

366
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 1: It's not afraid. Our boy Duncan Robinson one of the

367
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 1: great three point shooters in the game. You have Butler

368
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 1: in there. They've made an interesting team there and there'll

369
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 1: be a tough out. We'll take a break twenty one

370

00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:54,600
Speaker 1: NBA Coming up today and tonight Nets Raptors, Jazz, Nuggets

400
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:58,280
Speaker 1: seventy six or Celtics MAVs and the Clips. Magic over

401
00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:02,280
Speaker 1: the Bucks, Blazers bat the Lakers. Here's Lebron James after

402
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 1: the lass. We had a couple of breakdowns which you

403
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:06,879
Speaker 1: can't have down stretch spressive versus team as high like

404
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 1: Portland and those two you know, the two headed monsters,

405
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,200
Speaker 1: the ones who kind of you know, you know, made

406
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:13,880
Speaker 1: the plays. Um, you know, CJ hitting a big, big three,

407
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,119
Speaker 1: Dame in a couple of threes as well, and then

408
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 1: Melo hitting three late and Gary Trent in a three

409
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 1: satay a half five threes late in the game. Um,

410
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:23,760
Speaker 1: we had done an exceptional job of trying to keep

411
00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 1: them up for three point on line. But you know,

412
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:26,760
Speaker 1: they may plays enough players to win a game down

413
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 1: the stretcher. We didn't. Yeah, I don't know if it's

414
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,719
Speaker 1: that simple. But you know, you could always ramp up

415
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,440
Speaker 1: your defense, but it's really hard to go, hey, we

416
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 1: got to shoot better. I mean in philosophy, you know

417
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 1: your philosophy in theory, you go, yeah, we gotta shoot better.

418
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 1: It's not that easy. We got to play better defense. Okay,

419
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 1: that's usually effort, but you're not going to become a

420
00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:55,719
Speaker 1: better shooter in two days. Yeah, Paul, I'm curious if

421
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,920
Speaker 1: in game two does Lebron James be patients and continue

422
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,600
Speaker 1: being a pass first, or one has one of those

423
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 1: nights where he scores fifty three and twelve because he's

424
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:06,879
Speaker 1: done that before, where he's come back from where the

425
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 1: teammates don't help me and says, okay, I got this

426
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:11,399
Speaker 1: next one because we can't go down O two. I

427
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 1: would expect games like that later in the playoffs. You

428
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 1: wouldn't want Lebron or expect Lebron to have to do

429
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 1: that in the opening round series. And it's only one game,

430
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:25,160
Speaker 1: but you if it becomes a pattern, if we start

431
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:28,360
Speaker 1: to see the same kind of problems on Thursday night,

432
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 1: then the Lakers do have real issues. Now, they do

433
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,560
Speaker 1: have real issues when it comes to playing a better opponent,

434
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:38,160
Speaker 1: and Portland is a dangerous opponent. We could all agree,

435
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:41,080
Speaker 1: and they're probably a four or five seed with their talent,

436
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:45,399
Speaker 1: but the Lakers should be better than Portland. That doesn't

437
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 1: mean Portland went to the conference finals last year. They

438
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 1: do have talent, and they have Damian Lillard who's not

439
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,240
Speaker 1: afraid of a big moment. I'm waiting to see Anthony

440
00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 1: Davis go and grab the big moment and just strangle

441
00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:03,359
Speaker 1: it take it with him because Lebron deferred last night,

442
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 1: and I don't know at what point he just says,

443
00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 1: I can't do this anymore. I can't defer. I'm gonna

444
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,679
Speaker 1: have to take over. Yeah, mclub, is he doing too much?

445
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 1: Because he looked like he had no legs at the end.

446
00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 1: His shots were coming up short, like sixteen assistant seventeen rebounds.

447
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,119
Speaker 1: Can't somebody else help him a little bit? Yeah? I

448
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 1: feel like that he needs more playmaking help, like I

449
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:27,720
Speaker 1: don't know who's going to help him, Michael. You can't

450
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 1: all of a sudden just go hey, um Caruso or

451
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:34,560
Speaker 1: Waiters or Jr. Can you guys help out a little bit?

452
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,760
Speaker 1: Bring back Jr? Come on? Oh my god, everyone's thinking

453
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 1: it Dad and why we No no, no, Dion Waiters.

454
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,840
Speaker 1: I'd give run too, but not JR. Smith. He could

455
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 1: go for nine from the fields. Yeah, Caldwell, Pope, isn't

456
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:56,160
Speaker 1: it's it's not a strong lineup. You just have two

457
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,159
Speaker 1: of the top five players in the game on the

458
00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:00,680
Speaker 1: same team. It felt like the two thousand seven Calves

459
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:04,320
Speaker 1: last night or whatever. What was that first year? Oh

460
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 1: my god, big z zidrunas Ilgascus. I remember covering that

461
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:16,000
Speaker 1: NBA Finals and at one point I'm there with John Barry,

462
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:20,200
Speaker 1: who was helping us with the NBA, and I just

463
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:22,880
Speaker 1: said to John as we're watching the game, and I went,

464
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:28,240
Speaker 1: how's he doing it? How how did Lebron get his

465
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:31,639
Speaker 1: team into the finals? Because you'd start to look at

466
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:34,720
Speaker 1: that roster and you go, wow, that is not good

467
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 1: at all. All right? Uh more phone calls coming up

468
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,680
Speaker 1: eight seven seven three d P show email address DP

469
00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:44,520
Speaker 1: at dan Patrick dot com. Fritzie taking his son to

470
00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 1: school today, and uh, I don't know if he's really

471
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 1: helping the process. I think his wife is driving, and Fritzie,

472
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:55,760
Speaker 1: I think he's trying to stay in touch with the show.

473
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,679
Speaker 1: But there is a question, a mean spirited poll question.

474
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:05,359
Speaker 1: This is a recommendation Randy and Tampa. Did Todd physically

475
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 1: help his son pack his stuff into the car? I

476
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:13,280
Speaker 1: would say absolutely no, not a chance. Yes. Point, it's

477
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:16,200
Speaker 1: a flawed question because that assumes that Todd's son packed

478
00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,640
Speaker 1: the car, because Todd's wife Jen packed the car. Yeah,

479
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,920
Speaker 1: and then maybe the son helped, then Todd, then maybe

480
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 1: the daughter in order, you know, there's no way Todd help.

481
00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,720
Speaker 1: I put Lindsay ahead of Todd and the helping. I

482
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:31,240
Speaker 1: think the daughter might have helped more than I'd say.

483
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:34,840
Speaker 1: I'd say mom and daughter probably helped to pack up.

484
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:37,639
Speaker 1: You know, the daughter might help pack up because you

485
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,119
Speaker 1: want to get rid of your brother to go to school,

486
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,760
Speaker 1: so you're more than happy. I always had help whenever

487
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,720
Speaker 1: I was leaving home because my brother then got our

488
00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 1: little small bedroom to himself, so he Dave was always willing, Hey,

489
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:52,760
Speaker 1: you need help, and I'd be like, yeah, sure, and

490
00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:54,600
Speaker 1: then I realized he just wanted me to get out

491
00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:57,159
Speaker 1: of the house. Yah. See yeah, I remember I couldn't

492
00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:58,919
Speaker 1: wait for my sister to leave for college because then

493
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:00,720
Speaker 1: that meant I got my own room. Yeah, let's go.

494
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:04,399
Speaker 1: Oh man, this is the best. How about this? A

495
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 1: friend of mine just sent me a note. Do you

496
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:10,320
Speaker 1: think colleges will get to the point of just going

497
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 1: online for the first semester to ensure their football team

498
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 1: is able to play? I just conspiracy theory, but it

499
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 1: makes sense. That's what's happening at North Carolina. Yeah. See,

500
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 1: shouldn't they have already done that? Well, you would think,

501
00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,600
Speaker 1: but not everybody. You know, there's some schools that are

502
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,760
Speaker 1: having classes. Yeah. I mean if they were like, hey,

503
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:40,879
Speaker 1: let's save athletics, everybody stay home, they could have planned

504
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:44,880
Speaker 1: that in April. Well, they want you on campus though,

505
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 1: because it's about tuition. I gotta have your sixty thousand

506
00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:53,879
Speaker 1: dollars and you get to take my daughter's taking classes

507
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:58,359
Speaker 1: online on campus? Yeah, what a crock, what a scam?

508
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:04,600
Speaker 1: I know. But if you said to let's say, Alabama fans, students, hey,

509
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:10,360
Speaker 1: first semester online on campus. We want to make sure

510
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,800
Speaker 1: that we keep the football team in a bubble to

511
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:16,360
Speaker 1: be able to play. It's not the craziest thought here. Yeah, McLevin.

512
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 1: You know, let's be honest about what college really is.

513
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 1: Most people kids, as I recall, were there at a

514
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:26,879
Speaker 1: party for four years. Intellectual pursuits are not always in

515
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:31,240
Speaker 1: number one. We come on, Hey, I'm right there with you.

516
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 1: I'm the poster child. Absolutely, this is the guy. As

517
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:44,080
Speaker 1: embarrassing as this may sound, I'm a communications major, not

518
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,920
Speaker 1: a journalist. Journalism was a major. I didn't want to

519
00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 1: work that hard. I went to journalism class the first

520
00:28:52,840 --> 00:29:00,760
Speaker 1: class mid term final, and my teacher, Larry Lane, great teacher,

521
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 1: gave me a D minus because if he failed me,

522
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:09,360
Speaker 1: then I wouldn't have graduated, because he knew what I

523
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:11,320
Speaker 1: wanted that I already knew what I wanted to do.

524
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:15,720
Speaker 1: I just didn't need these other classes. And you know

525
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 1: that was stupid on my part, But because I knew

526
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 1: this is the only thing I wanted to do, the

527
00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:22,280
Speaker 1: only thing I knew that i'd be qualified to do,

528
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 1: and I didn't need to know about Mesopotamia. Ye ask

529
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:29,560
Speaker 1: me club. I would give real advice if you're not

530
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:31,200
Speaker 1: going to go to law school or business school like

531
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:34,520
Speaker 1: don't panic about the GPA, right, I mean, because that's

532
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 1: not is that maybe overrated in college? Like you don't

533
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 1: need a three eight if you're gonna if you get

534
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:42,080
Speaker 1: the right internship or you know, like you said, if

535
00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 1: you know what you're gonna do, you have a big advantage.

536
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,200
Speaker 1: No one has ever asked me what my GPA was

537
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:50,640
Speaker 1: in college. They'd ask what my points per game were,

538
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 1: but not my GPA. My points per game were I

539
00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:59,360
Speaker 1: think lower than my GPA. Yeah. See, I was going

540
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:03,480
Speaker 1: to school to be a history teacher and uh yeah,

541
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:06,960
Speaker 1: that's not a joke. That was serious, which I couldn't

542
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:11,080
Speaker 1: think of a worse profession for me. AnyWho. My second

543
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:17,040
Speaker 1: semester of I don't mean it's funny, it's funny. My

544
00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:21,880
Speaker 1: second semester at West Virginia, I allowed my roommate who

545
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:25,440
Speaker 1: was like total burnout. You know, he was going to

546
00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 1: be an engineer, which was amazing, but he was very

547
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:29,880
Speaker 1: good with that kind of stuff. But anyway, I allowed

548
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 1: him to talk me into taking my second semester a

549
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:38,480
Speaker 1: like medieval history class. And he was like, dude, it's

550
00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:40,480
Speaker 1: gonna be so sick. It's gonna be all about like

551
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:42,800
Speaker 1: dragons and nights and fighting and stuff. It'll be just

552
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,680
Speaker 1: like dungeons and dragons. We should take it together. And

553
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,400
Speaker 1: being under the influence for sure, I was like, great, idea,

554
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 1: let's go do that. We'll sign up for you. Gay.

555
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:53,840
Speaker 1: It couldn't have been less about. It was about like

556
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,800
Speaker 1: medieval politics and like all of this crazy stuff like

557
00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 1: that was so boring. It was so detailed. It was

558
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:02,120
Speaker 1: like the worst class ever. And I was like, what

559
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,160
Speaker 1: in the hell am I? Of course, it's not about dragons.

560
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 1: Dragons aren't even real. Dragons aren't even a real thing.

561
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 1: And I thought that I was going to a history

562
00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:11,080
Speaker 1: class to learn about dragons. That'll show you where I

563
00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 1: was at eighteen years old West Virginia. I had two

564
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,960
Speaker 1: roommates who would wake and bake, and I just where

565
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:23,000
Speaker 1: did you live with us? No? I didn't recall having

566
00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 1: third room. Ye. I never understood that. This was like

567
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's my junior year maybe, and

568
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 1: they would wake and bake, and I just went, do

569
00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 1: you how do you do it? And they just said

570
00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 1: it puts us in the mood to study. To listen,

571
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:41,640
Speaker 1: but they would say it it puts us in the

572
00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:45,920
Speaker 1: mood to study and listen, and they were so slow

573
00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:48,360
Speaker 1: in getting out of the room. I don't know if

574
00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:50,240
Speaker 1: they ever got to class on time, but they would

575
00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:53,040
Speaker 1: be like, you gotta have a one hitter and you

576
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 1: gotta wake and bake. And I went, I have no

577
00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 1: interest in doing that. I was the school. Where is

578
00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:04,240
Speaker 1: dude like pot any of that stuff? No. Never. It

579
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:06,480
Speaker 1: took a little while, and then even then I was like,

580
00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 1: why do I want to be slowed down here? Why

581
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,680
Speaker 1: do I want to be like chill man? That is

582
00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:14,400
Speaker 1: not my personality. Let me just chill, Let me just chick.

583
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:18,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna wake and bag man. Yeah, Paul, going back

584
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:20,920
Speaker 1: to what you said, what's the priority in a college campus,

585
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:25,160
Speaker 1: is it the football team is a partying girls, beer,

586
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 1: all that stuff. If you told me, you know, if

587
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:29,640
Speaker 1: you told an average student the football team can go

588
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:31,880
Speaker 1: twelve and zero or you guys can go out socially

589
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:33,959
Speaker 1: and go to the bars this semester, and they had

590
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,080
Speaker 1: to sign up for one. They can't do the other.

591
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:41,040
Speaker 1: Even in the SEC. They love their football. But yeah,

592
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 1: if you said Old Miss is gonna go twelve and

593
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:45,600
Speaker 1: ozh or I get to socialize on campus at Old Miss,

594
00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:48,040
Speaker 1: I'm gonna sign up for socializing on campus at Old

595
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 1: miss or pros. Yeah yeah, now Alabama, all right, I

596
00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:54,800
Speaker 1: don't sign up for them. Yeah, they've been twelve and old.

597
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,920
Speaker 1: Because I try going not talking to a girl for

598
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,280
Speaker 1: four months. I've done it. Oh, I've done it. I'm

599
00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 1: an expert. You know. I applied to Alabama because I

600
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 1: heard they got free football tickets the kids. In all seriousness,

601
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:11,480
Speaker 1: but when we were picking schools, we didn't have helicopter

602
00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 1: parents who were, you know, helping you fill out you know,

603
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:19,040
Speaker 1: the the your whatever your letter that you might send,

604
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 1: or helping you with the resume, studying for the SAT

605
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:25,920
Speaker 1: like none of that stuff. Like my parents never said, hey,

606
00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:28,400
Speaker 1: where are you going to go to college? Because I

607
00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 1: think I said, I don't know, I don't know. And

608
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,800
Speaker 1: how random we are when we pick where we're going

609
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 1: to go to school. Now that's different now because it's

610
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 1: now this is scientifically broken down. It feels like with

611

621
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:12,120
Speaker 1: know anyone when you went to your first school. I

622
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:15,800
Speaker 1: knew a guy that I played against and he was

623
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:19,719
Speaker 1: on the team, and I thought, I'm as good as

624
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:24,200
Speaker 1: he is, why don't I go there. I had not

625

Speaker 1: thirsty for me. As the kids like to say, it

629
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:50,319
Speaker 1: was pretty sad. And I didn't realize at the time.

634
00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:13,719

Speaker 1: or Kansas or North Carolina. It was like they didn't care.

680
00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:57,440
Speaker 1: the commercial break, do we bring back what Josh Jacobs

681
00:37:57,480 --> 00:37:59,600
Speaker 1: had to say. He was the Alabama running back place

682
00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:02,400
Speaker 1: with as and he had this to say to us

683
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:05,800
Speaker 1: last year Savings just like he likes to do a

684
00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:08,840
Speaker 1: lot of light these nuts jokes. It's funny because, like

685
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:10,920
Speaker 1: you left, I haven't heard one of them since like

686
00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:13,680
Speaker 1: middle school and then Saving when I went to college,

687
00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:16,000
Speaker 1: Saving used to do it a lot. Wait wait, wait, wait, wait,

688
00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:19,680
Speaker 1: give me one here all right. So one day I

689
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:22,799
Speaker 1: was testing. I caught like five passes um in a row,

690
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,719
Speaker 1: and he was like, he's like, hey, Josh, if you

691
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 1: want to hold all the mark hold these. I said.

692
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:32,480
Speaker 1: I just sat there. I sat there for a second.

693
00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:35,359
Speaker 1: I was like, he really just said wait wait wait

694
00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:40,000
Speaker 1: he was doing these nuts to you. Yeah. I was like, cose,

695
00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 1: I ain't heard this. All right, I think at the

696
00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:50,800
Speaker 1: end of the interview, I bring up these nuts with

697
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:53,920
Speaker 1: the coach. How about this. Let me see how the

698
00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:57,400
Speaker 1: interview starts. Okay, I got an idea. Here's the idea.

699
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:03,879
Speaker 1: My idea is to ring up Nick Saban was at

700
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:08,520
Speaker 1: Michigan State. I believe when Tom Brady was at Michigan,

701
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:12,520
Speaker 1: so he was coaching against Tom Brady. I want to

702
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:15,680
Speaker 1: know what he remembers from that time. How about that

703
00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 1: I start there and then he goes to the Dolphins

704
00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:24,600
Speaker 1: after being at LSU and then he coaches against Brady then,

705
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:28,440
Speaker 1: so maybe we start out there and he's got some stories. Yes,

706
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:30,560
Speaker 1: I think it's a good strategy because coach Saban likes

707
00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:31,840
Speaker 1: when we take him out of the almond like you

708
00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:34,399
Speaker 1: when you asked about the jet skiing at the lake

709
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:36,000
Speaker 1: house or what he likes to listen to out the

710
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:38,560
Speaker 1: way in. He likes different topics than Hey, what do

711
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:40,680
Speaker 1: you think about l shoe this year? Yeah? All right,

712
00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 1: so we're gonna yeah, see what if coach brings it

713
00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:48,800
Speaker 1: up to you. Hey, Dan, before we get started, I

714
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:51,719
Speaker 1: got some D's nuts. I just want to Dan, you

715
00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:54,640
Speaker 1: like doing interviews. What if he says, like Dad, I

716
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:59,359
Speaker 1: just want to address these nuts. Speculation, the controversy, yeah,

717
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:02,439
Speaker 1: the umor and innuendo. I'd just like to address these nuts.

718
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:05,560
Speaker 1: I just want to set the record straight on dec.

719
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:08,120
Speaker 1: I'm trying to get a little sweaty. I'm started. My

720
00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:11,040
Speaker 1: hands is trying to sweat. This is coach Saban, I'm

721
00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:13,040
Speaker 1: going to ask this question too. He comes on all

722
00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:17,520
Speaker 1: the time. You have to you have to I do. Now,

723
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:21,080
Speaker 1: you know what the communications major and you wouldn't damn it.

724
00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 1: The journalist you have become is going to dan support

725
00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:25,920
Speaker 1: you in this. I back you. I gotta confirm the

726
00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:33,520
Speaker 1: story right as a journalist. As a journalist, yes, okay, what,

727
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:39,080
Speaker 1: I don't know what I what. We'll be fine. I'm

728
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:42,239
Speaker 1: curious what his reaction is going to be. I think

729
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:45,239
Speaker 1: I've built up enough. It's like with Coach k I

730
00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:49,320
Speaker 1: think I've built up a little house credit where I

731
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:53,759
Speaker 1: can have a little fun with him and I am

732
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:56,120
Speaker 1: complimenting him on his sense of humor. He may not

733
00:40:56,320 --> 00:41:00,200
Speaker 1: like that his players told that story because a couple

734
00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:02,960
Speaker 1: of months after Josh Jacobs, we asked Tuah when he

735
00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:04,880
Speaker 1: joined us at the super Bowl and he said that

736
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:07,759
Speaker 1: that that's true. The look on his face when I

737
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:10,360
Speaker 1: go hey and Josh Jacobs was on and he was

738
00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:13,160
Speaker 1: asking about you telling us about this story about D's nuts,

739
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:15,960
Speaker 1: and to his face is like, oh my god, I

740
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:19,440
Speaker 1: don't like. Where are we going with this? Can you

741
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:21,800
Speaker 1: confirm that? And he's like, yep, I can confirm that.

742
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:25,560
Speaker 1: All right, let's get a couple of phone calls in here. Uh,

743
00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 1: let me see Brandy in Iowa. Hey, Hey, hello, good morning,

744
00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:41,120
Speaker 1: Hey sixty three, don't weigh myself anymore. Okay, quick question

745
00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:44,120
Speaker 1: for you. You're talking about school, and I too was

746
00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:47,319
Speaker 1: a shooter in college at basketball. He said, No one's

747
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:50,719
Speaker 1: really asked your gpa. So my question would be which

748
00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:55,800
Speaker 1: was higher your GPA or your assists per game? Oh? No,

749
00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:58,920
Speaker 1: I could pass. I would have more assists. I actually

750
00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:02,799
Speaker 1: I love to show. I tried to choose not to pass,

751
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:05,240
Speaker 1: but if I was going to play, I had to pass,

752
00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:10,400
Speaker 1: though begrudgingly. I had a few assists. Caleb in Oregon

753
00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:13,520
Speaker 1: joins us, Hey, Caleb, what's on your mind? Hey, damn,

755
00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:18,520
Speaker 1: I wanted to see if you actually think they have

756
00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:23,759
Speaker 1: a legitimate shot at a winning this series. Oh yeah, absolutely, yeah.

757
00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:27,279
Speaker 1: I would be confident if I'm a Blazer fan. If

758
00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:29,920
Speaker 1: everybody is healthy, and that's what you were waiting for,

759
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:34,800
Speaker 1: and if they got in, then they were going to

760
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:37,759
Speaker 1: be dangerous. I think everybody thought that the question. I

761
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:40,800
Speaker 1: just didn't think they were getting in. I thought that

762
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:42,600
Speaker 1: it was too long a road to get in, and

763
00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:47,000
Speaker 1: look if Memphis folded. You know, Phoenix was great and

764
00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 1: almost got in, but Portland played well to get in,

765
00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:53,320
Speaker 1: and now all of a sudden the Blazers have to

766
00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 1: go at them again. You got to put doubt. You

767
00:42:57,800 --> 00:43:01,480
Speaker 1: go up too well, put doubt in everybody's mine. Big

768
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:05,319
Speaker 1: hour coming up. The great actor Brian Cranston and Nick

769
00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:07,880
Speaker 1: Saban will join us as well. One hour to Go

770
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:09,640
