1 00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:15,280 Speaker 1: Hi. To this point in my life am not a parent, 2 00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:17,439 Speaker 1: So I've never had a child walk up to me 3 00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:20,520 Speaker 1: and say something like, Daddy, where do babies come from? 4 00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:23,720 Speaker 1: Never experienced that many of you have. I have, however, 5 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:27,040 Speaker 1: experienced several people saying, Josh, do you think Archie is 6 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 1: going to start for Texas this year? Which in the 7 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:33,000 Speaker 1: college football since is roughly the same late kick live 8 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 1: and here to inform tonight, jam packed high top, a 9 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:40,400 Speaker 1: noisy downtown Nashville, Tennessee tourists as far as the eye 10 00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,200 Speaker 1: can see out there spring game reaction. I got plenty 11 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:48,040 Speaker 1: of that tonight. I've got a plea, a cry for patients, 12 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:51,520 Speaker 1: for some of you who root for big time programs, 13 00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:54,360 Speaker 1: who I think may be in route to a six 14 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 1: or seven wins season this year, but pay attention to 15 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 1: this part. But maybe doing it right, Just maybe that 16 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,960 Speaker 1: the oven's not quite hot enough this year. Yeah, I'm 17 00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:08,760 Speaker 1: gonna talk about the Texas quarterback thing, not a controversy, 18 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 1: but a thing out in the state of Texas and 19 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 1: Florida State fans and this show. It is a budding 20 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,320 Speaker 1: rivalry the likes of which we have not seen at 21 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 1: Peyt State in quite a while. Someone asked me about it, 22 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 1: and it occurred to me that not everyone gets it, 23 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 1: and so I will talk about that tonight. I got 24 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 1: some stuff on Lincoln Riley. I've got a lot to 25 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: talk about. I'm gonna reveal where we're gonna be doing 26 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:32,080 Speaker 1: the show live from Tuesday as well. We're watching, well 27 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 1: you're watching from Garden City, Kansas tonight. They're watching, according 28 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 1: to the live chat from Maxville, Florida. Don't think I'm 29 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 1: not paying attention. They're watching in Huntsville, Alabama and Hellotus, Texas. 30 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: Thank you guys so much. I got two big stops 31 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 1: this week. The Pate State Speaker Series has gone like 32 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 1: fifteen stops deep great stuff. Last week we were at Florida, 33 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 1: we were at UCF, and we were at Miami. We 34 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 1: sat down with napi Or Malson and crist of Ball. 35 00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: All three of those conversations in their entirety or on 36 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 1: the YouTube channel if you want to watch or listen 37 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 1: to them, Hey, you know which sit down and which 38 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: stop on The Pate State Speakers series has gotten the 39 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 1: best reviews out of any we've done. It's the Mac 40 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: Brown sit down we had with him. Mac Brown gave 41 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: us really like two hours forty minutes of it. We 42 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 1: rolled on and it was one of those magical moments 43 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: where everyone realizes there is a much older, wiser gentleman 44 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: in the room. Let's shut up and let's just let 45 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 1: him go and let's let him talk and inform and 46 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:34,239 Speaker 1: tell stories. Coach Quinn, who's my field producer, was in 47 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: the room. She cried a couple of times during the 48 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 1: middle of it. I have had the best feedback on 49 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: that Mac Brown conversation out of any of them we've done, 50 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: and I thought they were all great, and you guys, 51 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 1: more importantly, have thought they were really good as well. 52 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 1: So I'm going to be making an announcement momentarily about 53 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 1: where we will be Tuesday, because a lot of you 54 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 1: have been waiting for that one. But in the meantime, 55 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 1: I wanted to go a little different direction tonight, and 56 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: we're going to go a lot of directions because I 57 00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: got a whole lot of Spring Intel and Spring Games 58 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 1: to reach to it. I just wanted to just do 59 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: an old fashioned paper pop to start the show. I 60 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:11,239 Speaker 1: wanted to talk to you about reality versus expectation, and Colin, 61 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 1: that's not the best intro. So when you cut this, 62 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:17,079 Speaker 1: start it right here. Expectations for some of these big 63 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: time programs is nine or ten wins a year, and 64 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: this year and beyond you're gonna need to be in 65 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 1: the playoff conversation called twelve teams make it in, which 66 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: in the fans mind that roots for a major program, 67 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 1: it's everybody makes it in now not quite, but I 68 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: get what you're saying there. I think about teams like Clemson. 69 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 1: I think about teams like Auburn. I was at Miami 70 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 1: the other day, I was at Florida the other day. 71 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: I would classify Oklahoma in this category USC as programs 72 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 1: where there's maximum investment, there's really high level expectation. And 73 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: I mentioned that list of schools because I think, or 74 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: at least perceive that the right direction is being taken, 75 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: the right steps are being taken different categories depending on 76 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: their needs and their weaknesses to get where they want 77 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: to go. But that doesn't mean they'll all get there. 78 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 1: This year. There's probably a six or seven win campaign, 79 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 1: and there's somewhere there could be a five win campaign, 80 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 1: and as you know, and as I know, come December, 81 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 1: there's no room for that when there are high level expectations. 82 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 1: There's no room for five or six wins. I've taken 83 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,039 Speaker 1: advantage of being on the road the past couple of 84 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,280 Speaker 1: months as best we can to see as much as 85 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 1: we can behind the scenes, and I talk about a 86 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 1: lot of it on air, But my favorite part is 87 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:35,600 Speaker 1: just the overall change in perception that you get by 88 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 1: being blessed enough to get the perspective that we see. 89 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 1: And it's not always so and so is going to 90 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: start it right guard for Florida, or so and so 91 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,040 Speaker 1: is on the hot seat for North Carolina. No it, Yeah, 92 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 1: I mean those are takeaways. I care more about how 93 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,919 Speaker 1: my opinion gets changed because then I can share it 94 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 1: with you and hopefully we have a better show because 95 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 1: of it. One of the biggest takeaways when you see 96 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 1: behind the scenes at as many programs as we to 97 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,919 Speaker 1: see behind the scenes at is there's a lot of 98 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,159 Speaker 1: room between the top rung of the ladder and the 99 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,479 Speaker 1: bottom rung of the ladder. In this sport, a lot 100 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: of room. And it flies in the face of what 101 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 1: conventional wisdom is, which is the whole ten or trash 102 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: mentality as we've come to call it here, and that's 103 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 1: either your elite or you got folks out there saying, man, 104 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: what have they done? What has he done? What have 105 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 1: they accomplished? And it's kind of nonsensical, but that's kind 106 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 1: of the way it works out there on the college 107 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:33,840 Speaker 1: football streets. There are programs out there. I'm not mentioning 108 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: a specific one because I'm not talking about a specific one, 109 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: but I think there are programs out there that in 110 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: another era would be in the position to give coaches 111 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,839 Speaker 1: several more years of leeway, who in the modern era 112 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 1: are in a position where there's a whole lot of 113 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 1: pressure on their guy to win, and if they have 114 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: one more by their standards, subpar year this year, the 115 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,039 Speaker 1: conversation could be really uncomfortable, or there could just outright 116 00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 1: be talk about change. So I love the history of 117 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: this sport, so I encourage people any time this conversation 118 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 1: starts to just understand the history and understand what the 119 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: process is for building a winner, because I actually believe 120 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 1: it hasn't changed all that much. Now. You may have 121 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 1: different mechanisms, You may have different things like the transfer 122 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 1: portal afforded to you now that you may not have 123 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,040 Speaker 1: had in nineteen sixty eight. So maybe you could overhaul 124 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,839 Speaker 1: a roster a little bit quicker, things like nil in 125 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 1: sort of different dynamic and don't ever trust casual Carl 126 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: across the street from you, who you meet at the 127 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: mailbox every third day of the week, and he says, oh, 128 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 1: you know, they've always paid players in college football. It's 129 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: never been like it is now. It's never been remotely 130 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 1: close to how it is now. So true enough, there 131 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,280 Speaker 1: are different things in play now that weren't always in play. 132 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:44,839 Speaker 1: But if you zoom it out, if you go just 133 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:48,239 Speaker 1: hot air balloon view over the sport, the same things 134 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,919 Speaker 1: win that have always won, and the same principles have 135 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:54,040 Speaker 1: to be in place for you to win. But it 136 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 1: doesn't always happen like that, right. So I mentioned Frank 137 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 1: Beemer a couple of weeks ago on the show, and 138 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:00,840 Speaker 1: we got really good feed on it because I don't 139 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:02,359 Speaker 1: think a lot of people knew. I don't think a 140 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 1: lot of people know the real history of like Virginia 141 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 1: Tech and Frank Biemer. Biemer gets there in the late 142 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 1: eighties and it takes him seven years before he tops 143 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 1: six wins. And think about this, in year six they 144 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 1: went to eight and one. Now Biemer goes on to 145 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 1: rattle off thirteen double digit wins over a seventeen year span. 146 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 1: Frank Biemer likely never makes it to year seven. In 147 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: the current climate of college football, Bear Bryant had already 148 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 1: rattled off three national championships guys by the time he 149 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: gets to the late sixties. Bama fans would argue they 150 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: should have gotten the sixty six win as well, but 151 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 1: he was a multiple time national championship winning coach by 152 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 1: the time. In the late sixties, the program starts to 153 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 1: wane a little bit. Eight win season, another eight win season, 154 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,679 Speaker 1: then a couple of six win seasons in a row. 155 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: At that point, you know what the conversation would have 156 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: been around Bryant if it were today, It would have 157 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 1: been the conversation that's around Dabbo, only it would have 158 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 1: been much worse because while Dabbo is perceived to have 159 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: dipped a little bit and the Clemson programs perceived to 160 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: have dipped a little bit, they've still been a nine 161 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: or ten, like a double digit win caliber team, just 162 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 1: down a little bit relative to where they've been. Bryant's 163 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: teams were struggling above five hundred for a couple of 164 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 1: years there Now Bama stuck with him because that was 165 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 1: what you did back then, and he goes on to 166 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 1: win three more titles in the seventies. I've always wondered 167 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: in another era, is there enough patients, especially when you've 168 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:34,959 Speaker 1: built yourself to be a national championship caliber program, is 169 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: there enough patients? And hey, we don't have to go 170 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 1: back to the sixties, We can go as recently as 171 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:43,680 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. My favorite of all of these examples is 172 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: the Jim Harbaugh example. Jim Harbaugh as recently as twenty 173 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 1: twenty was in a situation where large swaths of his 174 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 1: own fan base were calling for his job, and there 175 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,319 Speaker 1: was a belief and I agree with this that had 176 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: they played the twenty twenty game against Ohio State, they 177 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: would have likely been beaten soundly and that may have 178 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 1: been the final nail in the coffin of Jim Harbaugh. 179 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 1: And you never see them win back to back to 180 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 1: back big team championships, you never see them win a 181 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: national championship. You don't see them rattle off three in 182 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 1: a row over Ryan Day in Ohio State in the 183 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 1: coming years. And my whole point there is, obviously, in 184 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 1: those three instances, the right guy was in place, and 185 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 1: ultimately the right, buttons were being pushed. It's just that 186 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 1: it doesn't happen overnight. Someone out there is doing it 187 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 1: right and is going to struggle to be above five 188 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: hundred this year. I don't know who I mentioned that 189 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 1: list of programs Clemson in Oklahoma, USC Auburn, Florida, and 190 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 1: Miami because I am either keenly aware or think I 191 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:49,839 Speaker 1: know that there are certain aspects of those programs where 192 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 1: smart moves are being made, where proper steps and proper 193 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 1: direction is being taken and explored. I just don't know 194 00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:58,719 Speaker 1: if it's going to pay dividends in the form of 195 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:02,199 Speaker 1: a ten plus win season this year. But today's climate, 196 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,440 Speaker 1: think about this. It kind of sort of mandates that 197 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 1: you get everything right the first time. And what I 198 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 1: mean is if I take over a job, if I 199 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: get a big time job, realistically, when I make my 200 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 1: hires and I implement my strength conditioning plan and I 201 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 1: figure out what I want in the way of nutrition 202 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: and sports science, and what do I want my analytics department, 203 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 1: how are we going to go about deviating away from 204 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: the old evaluation and scouting model and dividing it towards 205 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,680 Speaker 1: high school recruiting classically and also the college eval for 206 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,439 Speaker 1: the portal and stuff, and all the people, the army 207 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 1: of people that I have to put in place if 208 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:42,679 Speaker 1: I don't nail it from a philosophical standpoint, right out 209 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,680 Speaker 1: of the gate. And I got to make changes two 210 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 1: or three years in. It takes another two years minimum 211 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: for the real root system of those new seeds I 212 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 1: plant and those changes to take shape, and all of 213 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 1: a sudden, I'm half a decade in. They don't give 214 00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,199 Speaker 1: you that kind of runway. A lot of places will 215 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 1: not give you that kind of And so like I'm 216 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 1: a believer that a really really good poker player could 217 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 1: be delta crappy hand and he loses and loses and loses. Eventually, 218 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,559 Speaker 1: the better poker player is probably gonna win if you 219 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 1: sit at the table long enough. But it doesn't happen. 220 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 1: Just like that, I threw closing the dryer earlier today 221 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 1: because I forgot to put him in there earlier in 222 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,079 Speaker 1: the morning. I took the right step. It would have 223 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 1: been pretty stupid for me to open the dryer door 224 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 1: every two or three minutes and then get mad that 225 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 1: they weren't dry yet. I'm doing what I'm supposed to do. 226 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: Just that's not the way it works. And yet in 227 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: college football, if you're in Lincoln Riley's situation, I'm gonna 228 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:37,839 Speaker 1: talk about this later. They were bad, they were very bad. 229 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:41,440 Speaker 1: They would have to improve to be bad defensively. I 230 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 1: respect that, you know what, out of the guy for 231 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 1: looking unlike some would do and saying my way is 232 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:50,840 Speaker 1: not good enough. I gotta change things. They're gonna probably 233 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 1: be bad again this year. Their defensive product will probably 234 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: be very subpar by historical USC standards again this year, 235 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,959 Speaker 1: and people will talk if that coincides with a seven 236 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: win season, people will talk about he's not the guy 237 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 1: for the job, and they'll talk about how they got 238 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 1: to explore a different route. And I'll probably sit there 239 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 1: and I'll say, you guys, are USC you know what 240 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,319 Speaker 1: you're capable of. It's your program, it's not my program. 241 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 1: But did you expect it to be an overnight turnaround? Now? 242 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 1: If you want to tell me that he should have 243 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 1: he should have made this move from the outset, that's fine. 244 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 1: I can't change the past. He can't change the past. 245 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:32,679 Speaker 1: Hugh Freeze. Hugh Freeze inherited a situation at Auburn. From 246 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 1: a roster standpoint, it was nearly a ground up, roster rebuild. 247 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 1: And I've sat there and there and talked with those 248 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 1: guys about what it takes to overhaul that thing. It's 249 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: not overnight. Miami would tell you largely the same thing. 250 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:47,959 Speaker 1: Billiy Napier, we sat down with him at Florida a 251 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 1: couple last week and he said, I kind of feel 252 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:53,079 Speaker 1: like we've been living on a construction site for two years. 253 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: This is the first year where we really feel like 254 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 1: we're just working at a site or in a building 255 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 1: that well, in a program that we built. Now it's 256 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,079 Speaker 1: ours and if we lose, then we've doing it our way. 257 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:06,680 Speaker 1: But it's the first year we really feel like we're 258 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 1: doing it our way with our team. It's funny to 259 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 1: watch how this sport works. Man, It's so funny. Because 260 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 1: here's the other part. I'll move on here because I 261 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:17,440 Speaker 1: got a lot to talk about tonight. The other part 262 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 1: of this it's always not always. It's been a pretty 263 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 1: recent revelation to me, is there are people running athletic departments. 264 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 1: There are people who run college football programs who are 265 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 1: not football people. Gasp, shock, I know, and I mean 266 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 1: sometimes athletic directors out there even don't understand how to 267 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 1: properly evaluate their head coach, and even if some of 268 00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 1: them do, sometimes it's out of their hands. And sometimes 269 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,960 Speaker 1: you've got other forces at work, whether it's a Board 270 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 1: of Trustees member who has disproportionate amounts of power, whether 271 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 1: it's a chancellor or a rogue president who wants different 272 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: things for different reasons. What you find is what I'm 273 00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: talking about does not just apply to fans. What I'm 274 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 1: I'm taking this thing off, by the way, Colin. What 275 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 1: I'm talking about does not just apply to fans. It 276 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:09,079 Speaker 1: applies to administrators, It applies to athletic directors, It applies 277 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 1: to people who should know better but sometimes don't. And 278 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 1: so this isn't some This isn't some woe is the 279 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 1: head coach PSA. I just know because there are too 280 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 1: many programs out there that still have some inherent flaws 281 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 1: that haven't been fixed yet, but have high expectations that 282 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 1: we are going to get to the season, and we're 283 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: going to see teams fall short of expectations. And some 284 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 1: of them may be because they screwed themselves in the ground, 285 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: but other ones may be just not ready yet. They've 286 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 1: made the right moves, they're just not ready yet. I 287 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 1: am glad you're here, though, we appreciate you watching and listening. 288 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: We do this thing live multiple times per week. We 289 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 1: have no off season. We will never even talk about it. 290 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 1: Someone said, Peyton stayed unplugged. Here's the thing. We're in 291 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: a very temporary studio right now, and so the normal IFB, 292 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 1: which is the little earpiece thing that Colin gives me 293 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 1: my normal ones, not here, so we're having to use 294 00:14:56,040 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 1: a backup. I mean, it's foreign everything for us right now, 295 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 1: and so we're looking forward to the hammering and the 296 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 1: nails and whatnot resulting in a completed, brand new studio 297 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 1: for us. But in the meantime, we're just we're out there. 298 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 1: We're on the run. We're out there on the road 299 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 1: and we're doing stuff and studios and no two studios 300 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 1: look alike right now, which leads me to my next point. 301 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:20,720 Speaker 1: The pay State Speaker series has been all over the country. 302 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 1: We're not slowing down. In fact, I would argue, does 303 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 1: it look like we're speeding up? I feel like we're 304 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 1: speeding up a little bit. We're headed to Columbus, Ohio Tuesday, 305 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 1: late Kick Live. We'll be from Ohio State University, the 306 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 1: Ohio State University, and that means head coach of the 307 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 1: Buckey's Ryan Day, will be on the program. You've been 308 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 1: asking us to get to Columbus and get to the 309 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 1: Big Ten. Well we're headed up there. So we'll be 310 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 1: at Ohio State all day Tuesday. We will who knows 311 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 1: what all we'll see up there. Actually that's why we're going. 312 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 1: But we'll have Ryan Day on the show. We'll have 313 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 1: a normal show. It'll just be from the campus. It'll 314 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 1: be from the facility instead of in the studio, because 315 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 1: why stay in Nashville when we can get down on 316 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 1: the road. So looking forward to that, and I am 317 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,680 Speaker 1: sure that will be a very very meaty show for 318 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 1: not just Ohio State fans, but everyone else in between. 319 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 1: All Right, we had a bunch of spring games yesterday. 320 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 1: As we're talking, I left my phone somewhere. It is 321 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 1: April twenty first, Sunday night, April twenty first, which means Saturday, 322 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 1: April twentieth, was a pretty big day across the country. 323 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: The Texas Spring Game. Yes, friends, I watched it, Josh, 324 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 1: did you see arch Manning? If I was asked once, 325 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 1: I was asked about a million and one times I 326 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: saw Arch, I saw Arch go ahead, and what he 327 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 1: looked really good? He looked really good. He's a good quarterback, 328 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 1: always has been. Contrary to semi popular belief, well, quarterback controversy. 329 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 1: What's a quarterback controversy? Well, Josh, that's when you have 330 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 1: multiple good quarterbacks. That's not controversial. Friend, We've never even 331 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 1: believed in quarterback controversy as a phrase on this show. 332 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 1: As me and Ma taught me growing up. The only 333 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 1: quarterback controversy is when you don't have one at all. 334 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 1: Having multiple quarterbacks is a very very good thing. In 335 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:11,440 Speaker 1: past lives, they called that competition. Apparently today it's a controversy. Hey, 336 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 1: follow up question, friends, for as good as Arch Manning 337 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 1: looked yesterday, and he looked really good, three hundred and 338 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 1: fifty five through the air and three touchdowns? Hey, how 339 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 1: quinn Ewers look? Offspring? Why didn't he play a lot yesterday? 340 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:27,159 Speaker 1: Whatn't injured? Why didn't he play? You know, as I 341 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:31,639 Speaker 1: stroked my chin, if I didn't know any better, I 342 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:35,120 Speaker 1: think Sark and company know who their starting quarterback is there, 343 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 1: and they wanted to showcase other guys. And you know what, 344 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 1: as good as Arch Manning was yesterday. I'm sitting there 345 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:43,239 Speaker 1: looking at it, and I'm sitting there saying, hold up, 346 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:46,919 Speaker 1: Trey Owens looks really good as well. And that's not 347 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 1: a quarterback whose name you know a lot around the nation, 348 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 1: but you know in burn orange and white circles they do. 349 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 1: He would start at some places. This right here, I 350 00:17:57,400 --> 00:17:59,399 Speaker 1: was reading some of Jeff Howe's work over on Horn's 351 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:03,359 Speaker 1: twenty four seven. This is really a testament to how 352 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,960 Speaker 1: good that program is right now. It evaluated the quarterback 353 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:10,919 Speaker 1: position and recruiting the quarterback position. Trey Owens broadh man. 354 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,160 Speaker 1: He is a four star true freshman six five two 355 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 1: thirty six. He's out of Cyprus, Texas. Go watch his film. 356 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 1: If you haven't, go watch this film from the spring game. 357 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:22,160 Speaker 1: I'm convinced this dude would be rushed into starting at 358 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,639 Speaker 1: some places much less if some other places had Arch Manning. 359 00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 1: Malik Murphy was there this time last year, and he 360 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:31,640 Speaker 1: popped off in the spring game last year, and then 361 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 1: a bunch of folks came after him in the portal 362 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 1: and he stayed. And I assume that these guys will 363 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 1: stay at Texas. I don't know one way or the other. 364 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,680 Speaker 1: I assume they'll stay at Texas. What a loaded quarterback 365 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 1: room they have there. So the spring game view is 366 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 1: kind of the equivalent of the old hot air balloon view. 367 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 1: Take from it what you should take from it. It 368 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 1: can be deceiving if you don't know any better. If 369 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:57,920 Speaker 1: you didn't know any better, you think arch Manning was 370 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,439 Speaker 1: the overwhelming favorite to start for Texas, which is not 371 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 1: quarterback one at Texas, nor should he be. He's not 372 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 1: the guy that gives them the best chance to win, 373 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,160 Speaker 1: quin viewers is. That's why he'll be the starter come 374 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:12,159 Speaker 1: this fall unless injury crops up. So teams are like 375 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,680 Speaker 1: heat maps. I was talking about Georgia last week and 376 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: I described Georgia this way, and I'll describe Texas this way. 377 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 1: And you need to understand, if you're a Texas fan 378 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,639 Speaker 1: and you've never watched this show before, we have about 379 00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 1: half a dozen teams per year that we elevate into 380 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:30,440 Speaker 1: that year's Tier one, and we use a more fine 381 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:33,160 Speaker 1: tooth comb when we're talking about you. So there's a 382 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 1: ton to love about Texas, just like Bama for the 383 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:38,560 Speaker 1: past decade and a half. It's pointless to just sit 384 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:41,880 Speaker 1: here if you sive in your praise of Alabama or Georgia. 385 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 1: Now everybody knows they're good. Teams are like heat maps, though, 386 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 1: so the heat map for Texas is a whole lot 387 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:52,439 Speaker 1: of red. But inevitably, even the great teams, even the 388 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: loaded teams, they're gonna be little pockets of blue. Where 389 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 1: are the weak points? Well, you don't have to wonder, 390 00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 1: Sark told you defensive tackle depth and secondary play, and 391 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:04,199 Speaker 1: they are quickly on their way I think to addressing that. 392 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:07,159 Speaker 1: I mean, but you're not gonna match what Sweat and 393 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 1: Murphy gave this team last year. They had nine hundred 394 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 1: and forty one snaps last year and were borderline impenetrable 395 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 1: against the run. They won't match that, and it's foolish 396 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 1: to think they will. Now. They can, in the aggregate 397 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:22,159 Speaker 1: try and be as good as they can there and 398 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:24,359 Speaker 1: be better in other areas to make up for that, 399 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 1: but they won't match that. Get close, get close enough, 400 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 1: and then look around and realize this receiver room's really 401 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,919 Speaker 1: good and elsewhere just on this roster in general, they 402 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:36,719 Speaker 1: look really good. I think their defensive end, I think 403 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 1: their pass rush in general could be one of the 404 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 1: best in the country this year. Texas is going to 405 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 1: be one of those classic earned the right to rush 406 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 1: the passer type teams, and that is the type of 407 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,360 Speaker 1: team where you know they're elite on the edge and 408 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 1: you get into obvious passing downs and they can get 409 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 1: after you, and they can wreck a football game. I mean, 410 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 1: the worst thing that can happen there's not your quarterback 411 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:56,880 Speaker 1: getting sacked. The worst thing that could happen is them 412 00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:59,440 Speaker 1: forcing a turnover, whether through a sack, force fumble, or 413 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 1: bad decision ball put up in the air when it 414 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 1: shouldn't have. Texas can do that, but they got to 415 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 1: put themselves in position to That's why those interior guys 416 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 1: are so important. See, before you can ever get to 417 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,719 Speaker 1: third and nine, it takes a first and ten second, 418 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,199 Speaker 1: ten third, nine, that's how you get there. But if 419 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 1: they're running it for eight yards to pop on early downs, 420 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:20,920 Speaker 1: then it doesn't really ever put you into an obvious 421 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 1: passing down and therefore you never really get to watch 422 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 1: those guys shine. That's why the interior guys are so important, 423 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,879 Speaker 1: and that's why I'm not calling them bad there. They 424 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 1: just lost really really a good combo there, and we'll 425 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:36,639 Speaker 1: see what they do in the portal as well. I 426 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 1: know they had defensive line visitors on campus yesterday, and 427 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 1: it could be that they've already made moves today and 428 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:46,400 Speaker 1: so Texas, there are not very many red flags here. 429 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,679 Speaker 1: I think that was obvious watching yesterday. But even if 430 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,080 Speaker 1: it looked like it yesterday, your eyes may be deceiving 431 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 1: you a little bit there, Texas. I know it hurts 432 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,879 Speaker 1: to hear. I know some people in the crowd need 433 00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 1: to go ahead and the ear muffin now can win 434 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:04,640 Speaker 1: a national championship this year. They haven't yet in this generation, 435 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 1: in this modern you know, past five or ten years generation, 436 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:14,160 Speaker 1: but they can. Friends, Academy Sports and Outdoors would probably 437 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 1: be the place to line up at twelve oh one 438 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 1: am right after Texas won a title, because that would 439 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:20,120 Speaker 1: be where they were selling all the merch. But look, 440 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:22,239 Speaker 1: I don't care if you're an Oklahoma State fan, and 441 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,520 Speaker 1: you couldn't care less if Texas exists or not. You 442 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 1: need chairs, you need big lead chew, you need coolers, 443 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 1: you need great fishing equipment, whatever it is. I don't 444 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 1: know how you live your life, but however you do, 445 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 1: Academy Sports and Outdoors one stop shop for all that 446 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 1: and beyond are. They are our exclusive partner and have 447 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 1: been for a long time in that avenue and just 448 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 1: in the avenue of life. I'm a minimalist, so I 449 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 1: find most everything I need there. As I said the 450 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,679 Speaker 1: other day, aside from medicine, toothpaste, you know, things of 451 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: this nature. A vehicle. Academy has most of what I need, 452 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 1: and they'll have at least a lot of what you 453 00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 1: need as well. And if you can't get there in person, 454 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,640 Speaker 1: Academy dot Com has hook up. Academy Sports and Outdoors 455 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 1: always been there for us and will be for a 456 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,400 Speaker 1: long long time. There are gonna be two instances tonight 457 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 1: where I talk about this next team. One of them 458 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:15,359 Speaker 1: is right now, and I don't know why it is, Colin, 459 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:17,960 Speaker 1: but the way I have my laptop angled the live 460 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:20,919 Speaker 1: chat is it feels like it's right in my face, 461 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,480 Speaker 1: which means I'm seeing a lot of these comments, and 462 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 1: I gotta be honest. At any given point, I could 463 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 1: just abandon the show and just talk back and forth 464 00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 1: with the live chat. For example, Yes, I mean I've 465 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 1: got my lip vomits right here. We look at that. 466 00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:38,200 Speaker 1: I peeled the label off because they haven't paid for advertising. 467 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,160 Speaker 1: But I mean, I think we all know what's going 468 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 1: on here, kind of a shaded yellow hue with a 469 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:46,680 Speaker 1: blue tip. I think we all know what's going on there. 470 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 1: But I digress. Okay, So this next team. A lot 471 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 1: of talk about this next team. I mean, there's some 472 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:56,880 Speaker 1: wild swings and opinion from what I saw nationally yesterday 473 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 1: before I watched the spring game. Florida State had their 474 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 1: springs game yesterday. I was in the unique position where 475 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 1: I saw what people were saying about it before I 476 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 1: watched it, because I didn't get to watch it live. 477 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 1: I wondered what we'd see from djuy Angliala. It's been 478 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:14,639 Speaker 1: a really interesting route that he's taken, really interesting color 479 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 1: uniforms they wore yesterday, Clemson to Oregon State to Florida State, 480 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 1: and anybody who's watched that dude knows. Physical tools are there. 481 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:25,359 Speaker 1: We talked about this last week. Physical tools have always 482 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: been there. Poise, accuracy, decision making hasn't always been there. 483 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 1: So the great unknown and the thing we've been following 484 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:35,159 Speaker 1: throughout Florida State's spring practice is will he improve in 485 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:39,160 Speaker 1: those areas? And I had reason to believe, just based 486 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:41,400 Speaker 1: on some of our folks down there that he had 487 00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 1: made some form of improvement, especially over the last week 488 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 1: to two weeks in those categories. Yesterday, I wouldn't call 489 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 1: it overly special at all. I thought he looked very pedestrian. 490 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 1: It was Dju. It was dj uey Angolile. That's a 491 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 1: lot of caffeine before the show. It was Dju. It 492 00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 1: was flashes, but some inconsistency, and it probably left you 493 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 1: hoping that there is a lot of improvement if you're 494 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 1: a Florida State fan between now and week one, because 495 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:12,720 Speaker 1: if that's the product that you get, you probably can't 496 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 1: lean on that to make a deep run in the playoffs. 497 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 1: But you also know there's a lot of time still. 498 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:20,680 Speaker 1: You got summer workouts, you got fall camp, and you 499 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 1: got the right coaching staff to develop him. How much 500 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 1: development can be expected be real with the expectations there, 501 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 1: So let's just say we play it safe on Florida State. 502 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 1: That's how I'm gonna choose to go about this. I'm 503 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:36,440 Speaker 1: going to assume we get incremental improvement. But I don't 504 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 1: see Jordan Travis two point zero this year at quarterback 505 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:41,679 Speaker 1: for Florida State. That just means that they have to 506 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 1: play a more complimentary style. And that's where I want 507 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:48,400 Speaker 1: to talk about their tailback room, because they got horses 508 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:50,920 Speaker 1: in the tailback room. They got a lot of them. 509 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 1: They got Jayalen Lucas is a guy yesterday who had 510 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:59,439 Speaker 1: multiple ten plus yard runs, elite speed, Keziah Holmes, Lawrence 511 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 1: to Afeeli, the Royd L. Williams transferred from Alabama down there. 512 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:06,280 Speaker 1: So they've got the guys. If they want to play 513 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:09,160 Speaker 1: a more Michigan style of football, if you will, but hey, 514 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:12,360 Speaker 1: it's not foreign in terms of concept. Cause remember Travis 515 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 1: didn't go down against Georgia last year. Travis went down 516 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:17,879 Speaker 1: with two or three games left in the season and 517 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: they had to revert to that style of play and 518 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,199 Speaker 1: it may not have been pretty, may not have been 519 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:25,800 Speaker 1: aesthetically pleasing, but the run game in the defense had 520 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 1: to win them games down the stretch last year and 521 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 1: they did. So this is not something Florida State has 522 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:33,639 Speaker 1: to learn to do. I just think it's something they 523 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 1: may have to lean on the idea of doing a 524 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 1: little bit more this year. Pass rush could be really solid. 525 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:43,119 Speaker 1: We kept hearing Aaron Hester's name and according to Brendan 526 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 1: Snon over there at NOLS twenty four to seven. He 527 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:48,800 Speaker 1: accounted for at least five quarterback pressures yesterday. It's always 528 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 1: hard to tell in the spring game, but he was 529 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,879 Speaker 1: going against the starting right tackle or they're projected starting 530 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 1: right tackle for most of the day, Marvin Jones juniors 531 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 1: on that defensive front as well. So again, there're gonna 532 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 1: be a lot of areas of this team, kind of 533 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:03,399 Speaker 1: like we were talking about with Texas. Where you go, 534 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 1: I can count on that, I can count on that, 535 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 1: I can count on that. The way to look at 536 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 1: exiting spring and entering summer and in fall camps is yes, 537 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 1: we know perceived areas of strength, and yes, everyone's going 538 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 1: to try and improve themselves in the portal if they 539 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:22,400 Speaker 1: can heap map the team. Where are the cold pockets? They, 540 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:26,160 Speaker 1: by the way, at Florida State had NCAA penalty to pay, 541 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 1: so they have to wait until tonight, as I'm talking 542 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,000 Speaker 1: to you at Sunday, they have to wait until tonight 543 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 1: at midnight to start contacting transfers. So I imagine a 544 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 1: lot of them are probably napping right now so that 545 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 1: they can work all throughout the night. Florida State's in 546 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,720 Speaker 1: a little bit different position here now. One of the 547 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:48,439 Speaker 1: big things that frankly I overlooked in this second portal 548 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,159 Speaker 1: window was the whole rule with the SEC that they 549 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,040 Speaker 1: can't go after other players in the same conference. SCC 550 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: teams cannot go take SEC players in the spring portal 551 00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,879 Speaker 1: window and have them eligible this year. Florida State's not 552 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:04,400 Speaker 1: in the SEC, and Florida State probably got some money 553 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 1: to spend and they got some needs down there, and 554 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 1: they got the entire SEC to look over and say, huh, 555 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 1: we already took some do we want to take any more? 556 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:16,920 Speaker 1: Are there any available? We'll see, But I would always 557 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:20,000 Speaker 1: be cautious with some of those teams in the ACC 558 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:23,280 Speaker 1: who are exiting spring ball calls. They can come take 559 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,720 Speaker 1: whoever they want to, who wants to hop a board 560 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:28,639 Speaker 1: in the SEC. Can't necessarily do that if you're Georgia 561 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 1: or LSU or Alabama. All right, let's move on. I'm 562 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,359 Speaker 1: not done, by the way in this show talking about 563 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:34,920 Speaker 1: Florida State. I got something else to say a little 564 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 1: bit later, probably should have been said like three months ago, 565 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 1: but I'll say it tonight. Oklahoma spring game yesterday least 566 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 1: shocking headline of spring, but it's worth a paper pop 567 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 1: least shocking headline. Dion Burks goes off for Oklahoma. Five catches, 568 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 1: one hundred and seventy four yards, two touchdowns, both of 569 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 1: the fifty plus yard variety, and salute to Toby Keith. 570 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 1: I see they paid him so honor on the field there. 571 00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:06,680 Speaker 1: Dion Burk's transferred there from Purdue, so he's been there 572 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,160 Speaker 1: a very short time. It's pretty wild to hear people 573 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 1: around Oklahoma talk about him. Dion Burks may be their 574 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 1: best receiver this year, but also he's like one of 575 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,720 Speaker 1: the faces of the team, and he hasn't even played 576 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 1: a game there, and he's played a spring game. But 577 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 1: for whatever reason, Deon Burgs is the kind of guy. 578 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 1: This happens occasionally when you get the right kind of 579 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 1: mentality combined with the right skill set at the right time. 580 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 1: When they walk in the door, the room just start 581 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 1: scravitating around him. I'm not telling you he's a selfish 582 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 1: guy at all. Quite the opposite. Everyone loves him there. 583 00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 1: They love him because they need him there, and he's 584 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 1: working out of that slot position that you saw Drake 585 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 1: Stoops in last year, except he's got a little bit 586 00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:51,480 Speaker 1: different gear than Drake Stoops. So you want to buy 587 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 1: some stock in like a connection. FanDuel at FanDuel, Can 588 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 1: we do this if we want to place maybe some 589 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 1: prop bets on quarterback to wide receiver connections this year, 590 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 1: Jackson Arnold to Dion Burks, I'll take all of that. 591 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 1: Whatever my limit is, go ahead and insert my limit there. 592 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 1: And also not shocking. Defensive line looks pretty good for Oklahoma, 593 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:15,760 Speaker 1: at least to me, they looked really improved. White team 594 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 1: had seven sacks yesterday. Secondary, they'll be okay. They're missing 595 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 1: a couple of veterans that they'll have in the season, 596 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 1: so I know they gave up a few chunk plays. 597 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 1: I think they'll be okay there. I think their defense 598 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 1: will be okay. Offensive line, now, that was the big 599 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 1: point of focus. And I'm not ready to say we're 600 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 1: out of the woods. Certainly not out of the woods there, 601 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:39,480 Speaker 1: Certainly not, I thought. Because so little was expected, they 602 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:42,120 Speaker 1: pleasantly surprised me. Got to give it a second look. 603 00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 1: I've only watched the game once, but I'm gonna say 604 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 1: this with a very purposeful tone. Oklahoma offensive line better 605 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:54,760 Speaker 1: than expected. Dare we say we better keep quiet on this? 606 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 1: They did make a move in the portal I'll talk 607 00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 1: about it in a second, because this was a big 608 00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 1: recruiting event. Yes, was a big recruiting of and it's 609 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:03,240 Speaker 1: already paying dividends because as you see on the screen 610 00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 1: if you're watching on YouTube, Branson Hickman has committed to Oklahoma. 611 00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 1: Like in the past couple of hours. That was SMU's 612 00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: starting center last year. He's likely going to be Oklahoma's 613 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,000 Speaker 1: starting center. He started all fourteen last year. He was 614 00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 1: All AAC second team, zero sacks allowed in five hundred 615 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:23,800 Speaker 1: and seventeen pass blocking snaps according to our fine friends 616 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 1: at PFF. So that's one. I don't think they're done, 617 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 1: but that's one I felt like Arnold to Burg's. It's 618 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 1: just some of the things that stick with you stick 619 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:36,680 Speaker 1: in your mind. I remember ad Mitchell a few years 620 00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 1: ago at Georgia kind of popped off in the spring game. Well, 621 00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:41,680 Speaker 1: he ends up catching balls to win a national title. 622 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 1: This is not my Oklahoma wins the national title moment 623 00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 1: or anything. But outside of injury, I'd be very surprised 624 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 1: if we didn't see Dion Burgs go off this fault. 625 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 1: That's not a mirage, that's not an illusion. That's just 626 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,840 Speaker 1: a playmaker that walked in the door in Norman, Oklahoma. 627 00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:00,240 Speaker 1: And it doesn't matter how long he's been there. He 628 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,920 Speaker 1: is one of the centralized focal points of that team. 629 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 1: Now they are watching us. Are they in Piscataway, New Jersey, 630 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 1: home of the Rutgers Scarlet Knights. They're watching us in Cincinnati, Ohio? 631 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 1: They're watching us in Vidalia, Georgia. Thank you, guys, so 632 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:21,440 Speaker 1: so much big time growth on the show. Big time growth. 633 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,120 Speaker 1: Got a lot that we're adding to our numbers weekly. 634 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 1: I was talking to director Colin before the show and 635 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:28,520 Speaker 1: I said, Colin, you know, we get so many new 636 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,560 Speaker 1: viewers and listeners. Do you think people who are new 637 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 1: here get the show? A lot of inside references, a 638 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 1: lot of weirdness? What does immunity mean? What is peate state? 639 00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 1: I asked him. Do you think that we should just 640 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:43,480 Speaker 1: have a refresher video? Do you think we should do 641 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:46,040 Speaker 1: a here's who we are type video? Would it even 642 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:50,040 Speaker 1: be a video open ended? I'm open to suggestions on that, 643 00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 1: by the way, because I think we need something like 644 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:53,920 Speaker 1: that because it's been a long time since we just 645 00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:58,080 Speaker 1: explained ourselves around here, and we have added hundreds of 646 00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:01,240 Speaker 1: thousands of you since then. So probably more than that. 647 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:03,520 Speaker 1: We appreciate you guys, though, if I promise you, if 648 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: you stick around, it'll eventually makes sense. And if it doesn't, 649 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 1: just ask someone in the comments and they'll explain it 650 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 1: to you. Well, here we go. We don't believe in 651 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 1: defending a national championship around here. Now. Would be an 652 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 1: interesting world if the NCAA made you actively defend your 653 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 1: championship like it was you know, the Intercontinental Championship Belt 654 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,200 Speaker 1: or something. But Michigan does not have to defend their 655 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 1: championship this year. However, Michigan just won a national championship. 656 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 1: And that leads me to yesterday. Because Michigan had their 657 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:35,960 Speaker 1: spring game and I did not get what I expected. 658 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 1: I did not. It's my fault. It's my fault because 659 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 1: I haven't paid enough attention to the Michigan quarterback room 660 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 1: this spring. I've paid attention to what I thought, and 661 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 1: that's a dangerous thing. That's a dangerous thing. In spring, 662 00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:55,360 Speaker 1: alex Orgy, I have assumed was going to be the 663 00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 1: starting quarterback up there. And you know what, if I 664 00:33:57,720 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 1: had to pencil in the depth chart today, I'd probably 665 00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 1: still put QB one next to his name. But Davis 666 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,960 Speaker 1: Warren looked like he was the starting quarterback of this 667 00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:08,280 Speaker 1: team yesterday. That's one man's opinion from watching a Michigan 668 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:13,080 Speaker 1: spring game. I think the fan base, while you guys 669 00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:15,560 Speaker 1: have followed this a lot more closely, I think the 670 00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:19,320 Speaker 1: fan base also after watching the game yesterday, not ready 671 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:22,560 Speaker 1: to call quarterback controversy because again, we don't believe in that. 672 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:26,360 Speaker 1: But this thing is a much more wide open competition, 673 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:29,320 Speaker 1: at least than people like me thought it was. Again, 674 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 1: maybe that was my ignorance to the situation and I 675 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:35,279 Speaker 1: hadn't been paying enough attention to it. My best read 676 00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:39,240 Speaker 1: on this thing is Alex Orgi is the current QB 677 00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 1: one of that team. I just I don't think there 678 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:44,520 Speaker 1: is one. JJ McCarthy walks out the door. No one's 679 00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 1: taken that job yet, no one's taken that job. I 680 00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,760 Speaker 1: don't think this is one of those illusionary quarterback battles 681 00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 1: where the coaching staff just tries to maintain that illusion, 682 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 1: so neither guy transfers. I think got quite the opposite. 683 00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:00,160 Speaker 1: This feels like the kind of recipe where it it's 684 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:04,799 Speaker 1: a season where multiple games feature multiple quarterbacks playing. It's 685 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 1: not a bad thing either. If you've got guys with 686 00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:10,279 Speaker 1: different skill sets. I mean, Alex Orgie is sort of 687 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:13,440 Speaker 1: one of one when it comes to certain things he 688 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:17,600 Speaker 1: can do athletically. Having said that, if you're the kind 689 00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 1: of team that has like a Donovan Edwards in the 690 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 1: backfield and you have the kind of defense they have, 691 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:27,160 Speaker 1: do I really wanna This is open ended because we 692 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:29,160 Speaker 1: got a long way to go, But I'm thinking as 693 00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:32,440 Speaker 1: a Michigan fan, like, if I'm watching this situation, do 694 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:34,839 Speaker 1: I want to have the guy who seems a little 695 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:39,759 Speaker 1: bit more firmly in grasp of the offense making better decisions? 696 00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:41,680 Speaker 1: Or do I want to see a guy who struggles 697 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:44,800 Speaker 1: somewhat with accuracy and decision making, but he's a great athlete. 698 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:47,360 Speaker 1: Because what that tells me, what that indicates to me 699 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 1: is wild fluctuations and potential outcome of games. I want 700 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 1: to get as much of that voluntility out of the 701 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:58,000 Speaker 1: equation as possible. And so I am now completely and 702 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:01,399 Speaker 1: utterly fascinated with how Sharon Moore his offensive staff will 703 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:05,640 Speaker 1: handle this quarterback situation. Completely fascinated by it. Fred Moore 704 00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:08,319 Speaker 1: popped off the screen to me that Michigan I did 705 00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 1: not realize this either, Michigan lost five wide receivers who 706 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:16,120 Speaker 1: were six foot of taller, five scholarship receivers six foot 707 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,440 Speaker 1: of taller off last year's team, and more six to one. 708 00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:20,720 Speaker 1: But he's got really really good speed. They could add 709 00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:24,919 Speaker 1: multiple wide receivers here if the situation's right, I think 710 00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:27,840 Speaker 1: Michigan could. They're definitely in the market. There's no thinking 711 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:31,720 Speaker 1: they're in the market for receiver help. There is a toughness, though, man, 712 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:35,560 Speaker 1: that wasn't going to disappear overnight, and I don't think 713 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,239 Speaker 1: it's going to disappear at all. It's Michigan football. But 714 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:42,040 Speaker 1: it's always something that no matter how many guys walk 715 00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:43,440 Speaker 1: out the door, no matter how many guys go to 716 00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:46,800 Speaker 1: the NFL Draft, there is a way that they play 717 00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:50,799 Speaker 1: that it makes it very tough for me to discount them. 718 00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:55,200 Speaker 1: And I'm certainly not discounting the fact that they could 719 00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:57,640 Speaker 1: contend for the Big Ten championship again this year. I'm 720 00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 1: just saying, even if I get to a point like 721 00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:04,000 Speaker 1: second week of August or you know, second week of 722 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:07,279 Speaker 1: the season, and they're not looking nearly like they did 723 00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 1: last year. Number one is a developmental game. Number two, 724 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:13,400 Speaker 1: it's a brand new staff and number three. That's the 725 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:15,640 Speaker 1: kind of team that can sort of scale then their 726 00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:18,880 Speaker 1: own production during the season. At quarterback situation, though, let's 727 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:23,080 Speaker 1: just see. Let's see how that works out. In the 728 00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:26,000 Speaker 1: words of Richard Marx, I should have known better, but 729 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:29,319 Speaker 1: I didn't. Never assume. Don't be the guy saying I 730 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:32,760 Speaker 1: told you so after spring games. Great advice from Memo. 731 00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:35,839 Speaker 1: All right, let's continue. Yeah, it's that time. It's that 732 00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:38,840 Speaker 1: portion of the show where I have to answer a 733 00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:45,960 Speaker 1: Twitter question. So I don't think this is going anywhere 734 00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:49,720 Speaker 1: anytime soon. I've already had a few of these because 735 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 1: I've been I've been discussing USC in an abstract way. 736 00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:56,239 Speaker 1: Look at that. I don't even have a chalice on set. 737 00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:59,720 Speaker 1: It's got a normal plastic cup with a mysterious orange 738 00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:07,239 Speaker 1: liquor in it. Now that's gone. Let me read you 739 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:11,560 Speaker 1: this question. I'm gonna warn you ahead of time. I'm 740 00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:13,759 Speaker 1: gonna warn you guys, especially if you're new around here. 741 00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:16,359 Speaker 1: It's gonna sound like I'm going after Larry's throat here. 742 00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:19,880 Speaker 1: I'm not. I love Larry or as he goes on 743 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,960 Speaker 1: the streets at dead Z ninety two. I love him, 744 00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:26,399 Speaker 1: but man, I get so tired of this, Colin, here's 745 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 1: your inpoint. Larry hit me and said, hey, I can't 746 00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:31,960 Speaker 1: be the only one that thinks that USC still has 747 00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 1: a ways to go with this so called defensive revolution 748 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:38,640 Speaker 1: that's being gassed up right now. What am I supposed 749 00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,080 Speaker 1: to do with this? This just gets dropped in my lap. 750 00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:43,359 Speaker 1: Today Bradley comes to me. He says, hey, you want 751 00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:46,839 Speaker 1: to throw this in the show? No, but yeah, go 752 00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:51,120 Speaker 1: ahead and do it. Larry. The revolution started ten minutes ago. 753 00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:54,800 Speaker 1: It was just like ten minutes ago that Lincoln Riley 754 00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:58,160 Speaker 1: looked in the mirror and said, I gotta change everything 755 00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:03,759 Speaker 1: about my program. Larry. It shocked you. Maybe it did 756 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 1: not shock me that in USC's literal spring game they 757 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 1: didn't look like the eighty five Bears. You kidding? Really 758 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:15,320 Speaker 1: it's not figured out yet, huh. I am myra Lincoln 759 00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 1: Riley for making this call. They're gonna be bad defensively 760 00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:20,399 Speaker 1: again this year. Say two things could be true there. 761 00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:23,399 Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley made the call he needed to. He made 762 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:28,200 Speaker 1: the moves he needed to. Hopefully fingers crossed the philosophical shift, 763 00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:31,719 Speaker 1: pressed all the right buttons and they start moving in 764 00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:35,080 Speaker 1: the right direction. But this is not a one year deal. 765 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:37,319 Speaker 1: He knows that. I mean, Lincoln Riley knows that. I'm 766 00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:39,359 Speaker 1: not talking to him. I'm talking to folks who think 767 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:41,680 Speaker 1: that all you have to do in college football to 768 00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:45,000 Speaker 1: totally overhaul a way that you play this game is 769 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:49,680 Speaker 1: say it. Just speak it into a microphone and have 770 00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:52,399 Speaker 1: a few practices in spring and you're good to go. 771 00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 1: That's not real life. This is not Xbox, Larry, unplug it, man, 772 00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:59,760 Speaker 1: this is the real world. You can't just go revolution. 773 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:03,280 Speaker 1: I think a defense on a whim. Imagine this, Larry. 774 00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:06,800 Speaker 1: Imagine if Kirk Ferrence at IOWA stepped to the podium 775 00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:10,280 Speaker 1: and said we're gonna try to be elite on offense, 776 00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:14,600 Speaker 1: and after you got through chuckling, you watched the Iowa 777 00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 1: offensive spring game and you said, this offensive revolution seems 778 00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:21,480 Speaker 1: like it's missing a little something. Players. That's what it's missing, 779 00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:26,960 Speaker 1: time and players. USC was horrific last year. Defensively, they 780 00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:30,440 Speaker 1: were one hundredth or worse in virtually every major defensive 781 00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:34,800 Speaker 1: statistical category. Put another way, that have to improve significantly 782 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:39,600 Speaker 1: to just be below average defensively. This year, they tore 783 00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:43,240 Speaker 1: it down to the studs. They're rebuilding it from scratch. 784 00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:47,760 Speaker 1: They're still installing. I don't care what Lincoln Riley says. 785 00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:50,040 Speaker 1: I don't care that he says he loves how it went. 786 00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:53,600 Speaker 1: He may he may love how Spring went. They're still 787 00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 1: installing this thing that they throw. I guarantee you what 788 00:40:57,120 --> 00:40:59,479 Speaker 1: they did is they met as a staff and they said, 789 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:01,880 Speaker 1: screw it. Throw as much at him as you possibly 790 00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:04,960 Speaker 1: can see what sticks against the wall. A lot of 791 00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:06,480 Speaker 1: it's gonna fall down to the ground, and we can 792 00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:08,359 Speaker 1: scoop all that up, and we can deal with that 793 00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:10,839 Speaker 1: in May and June and July, and then we get 794 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,920 Speaker 1: after it in August and hopefully we have a respectable 795 00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:16,200 Speaker 1: product we can put on the field. They're not slow 796 00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:18,640 Speaker 1: playing it. I guarantee you they they're not. They're not 797 00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:23,479 Speaker 1: feeding little Gerber baby apple sauce to those guys. They're 798 00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:26,160 Speaker 1: throwing it at him. They don't have good enough players 799 00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:29,839 Speaker 1: right now, defensive Revolution. I don't care if Lincoln Riley 800 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:32,600 Speaker 1: hired all the right guys and made all the right moves. 801 00:41:32,719 --> 00:41:34,239 Speaker 1: This is what I was trying to explain earlier in 802 00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:37,360 Speaker 1: the show. I got immense respect for Lincoln Riley for 803 00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:41,880 Speaker 1: doing this, doing it right. From this point forward, at 804 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:45,759 Speaker 1: USC is gonna take a couple of years minimum to 805 00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:47,719 Speaker 1: get anywhere close to the kind of product on the 806 00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:54,279 Speaker 1: field that you want. Like I said, it's gonna sound 807 00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:56,680 Speaker 1: like I'm going at Larry, I'm not. This is just 808 00:41:56,800 --> 00:41:59,839 Speaker 1: it's Larry's not ignorant. Larry is not ignorant, he said, 809 00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:03,239 Speaker 1: an ignorant thing. This is bumper sticker logic. Okay, this 810 00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:06,239 Speaker 1: is like the food when you are in the airport 811 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:08,920 Speaker 1: and you go to the Starbucks and you look at 812 00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:13,440 Speaker 1: the samples of the food there. It looks like a 813 00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:17,120 Speaker 1: maple chicken biscuit. That thing's been there three years. It 814 00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:21,200 Speaker 1: is for esthetics and cosmetic purposes only. Don't be biting 815 00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:24,120 Speaker 1: into that thing. That's what this tweet was. It was 816 00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:27,959 Speaker 1: like a showroom tweet. It's not built to withstand any 817 00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:31,040 Speaker 1: legitimate scrutiny. It's not built to be walked through to 818 00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:34,000 Speaker 1: a logical conclusion. Larry just threw that thing out there 819 00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:36,400 Speaker 1: and then hit the gas and drove away. Well, we 820 00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:40,319 Speaker 1: saw it, Larry, and Bradley the associate saw it, and 821 00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:42,960 Speaker 1: thank goodness, he brought it to my attention. Even if 822 00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:46,640 Speaker 1: every correct button is pressed at Southern cal they will 823 00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:50,759 Speaker 1: be well below average defensively this year but you can 824 00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:54,360 Speaker 1: feel it changing. You can feel the recruiting shift happening. 825 00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:57,879 Speaker 1: Look at him right now. Don't be coming back. Don't 826 00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:00,680 Speaker 1: be throwing it in reverse, Larry and peeling your way 827 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:03,360 Speaker 1: back down the road and saying uh uh. Recruiting rankings 828 00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:08,960 Speaker 1: mean nothing in April. Well, yes they do, yet they 829 00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:11,920 Speaker 1: don't mean everything. They don't mean everything. But like I 830 00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 1: do every year when I talk about someone's recruiting class 831 00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:19,400 Speaker 1: and then someone tells me those commitments mean nothing, and 832 00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:21,560 Speaker 1: I say, yes they do, and you say no, they don't. 833 00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:23,959 Speaker 1: We do that for like five more times. I tell 834 00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:28,799 Speaker 1: you put up five hundred dollars per kid, and for 835 00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:32,680 Speaker 1: everyone who stays committed, you pay me five hundred. And 836 00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:35,480 Speaker 1: for everyone who decommits and goes elsewhere, I pay you 837 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:37,960 Speaker 1: five hundred. No one ever takes me up on the offer. 838 00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:40,480 Speaker 1: Of course, while they know, yes, there will be kids 839 00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:43,680 Speaker 1: who decommit, even I know that the bulk majority of 840 00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:46,600 Speaker 1: the commitments are gonna stick. They do every year, guys 841 00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:49,200 Speaker 1: in major classes. The reason I'm saying that about Southern 842 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:52,759 Speaker 1: cal is because they're making some noise in recruiting right now. 843 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:58,080 Speaker 1: Defensive guys at premium defensive positions from the South, and 844 00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:00,680 Speaker 1: they hadn't done that to this point under Lincoln. So 845 00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:03,640 Speaker 1: this sounds like I'm hating on USC. Quite the opposite. 846 00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:06,840 Speaker 1: I'm dealing some truth on USC. It may be in 847 00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:10,839 Speaker 1: short supply because there is the school of Larry out 848 00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:13,719 Speaker 1: there that believes once you step to a podium and 849 00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:18,040 Speaker 1: say you're revolutionizing your defense, you're changing your defense. It's 850 00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:20,480 Speaker 1: just changed. There it is. And if it doesn't look 851 00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:23,600 Speaker 1: that way at the conclusion of spring practice, well you 852 00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:26,560 Speaker 1: must have dropped the ball on that one. No, Larry, 853 00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:29,239 Speaker 1: that's not the way it works. But thank you for 854 00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:33,400 Speaker 1: your submission. Colin. You were showing a second ago a 855 00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:35,720 Speaker 1: slider there of Southern Cali. You saw the over underwind 856 00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:39,840 Speaker 1: totals that's available at FanDuel. FanDuel, our exclusive odds provider, 857 00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:43,120 Speaker 1: has that and pretty much every other major team out 858 00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:45,040 Speaker 1: there on the market right now, and you can hit 859 00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:50,000 Speaker 1: up well conference odds. You can hit up over underwin totals. Again, 860 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:52,640 Speaker 1: my personal favorite that I don't remember seeing this time 861 00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:56,879 Speaker 1: last year is for most teams, like if you look 862 00:44:56,920 --> 00:45:00,800 Speaker 1: at Miami, they have odds for Miami to make the 863 00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:03,600 Speaker 1: playoff and odds for them to miss the playoff. They 864 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:06,440 Speaker 1: have that for all the major teams. That's fun. That's 865 00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:08,960 Speaker 1: fun because I'll be using that my personal life with 866 00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:13,040 Speaker 1: a few very very noisy friends of mine. That's the 867 00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:15,040 Speaker 1: beauty of it. Guys. I used to talk about this 868 00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:18,080 Speaker 1: a lot when we did the show really really independently 869 00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:20,879 Speaker 1: down in Columbus. We would get some of the same 870 00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:23,040 Speaker 1: guys and they're just talk trash all the time, which 871 00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:25,719 Speaker 1: is fine, that's what that's part of the what the 872 00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:29,080 Speaker 1: fun of watching sports is. But all you got to 873 00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:30,960 Speaker 1: do is get folks to back up their mouth with 874 00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:33,120 Speaker 1: their wallet and you'll find out how serious they are. 875 00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:35,920 Speaker 1: So if someone starts talking to you right now, and 876 00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:37,799 Speaker 1: let's say we're down in the state of Florida and 877 00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:39,960 Speaker 1: they start saying Miami's going to make the playoff Florida State, 878 00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:43,520 Speaker 1: won't just just go to FanDuel look at the odds, 879 00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:46,399 Speaker 1: whether he knows what you're doing or not, and make 880 00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:49,879 Speaker 1: him pay, make him back his opinion up, make her 881 00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:53,600 Speaker 1: back her opinion up with money. That's how you find 882 00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:55,839 Speaker 1: out how serious someone is about their opinion. Are they 883 00:45:55,880 --> 00:46:00,520 Speaker 1: willing to put their wallet behind it? And FanDuel can 884 00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:03,920 Speaker 1: help there.

Let me finish my cup over here. 914 00:47:46,960 --> 00:47:49,759 Speaker 1: It's been a really good show. I did not I'm 915 00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:51,839 Speaker 1: looking at the live chat here. I did not talk 916 00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:53,960 Speaker 1: about Notre Dame Spring game because I have not gotten 917 00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:56,239 Speaker 1: to watch it yet. And Texas A and M there 918 00:47:56,239 --> 00:47:59,880 Speaker 1: were so many guys missing. I thought it would not 919 00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:01,879 Speaker 1: be very productive for us to talk about that one. 920 00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:05,000 Speaker 1: So those two I'm not touching on tonight, just because 921 00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:08,239 Speaker 1: people were asking I should look at the live chat more. 922 00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:10,759 Speaker 1: We have this thing, and I should really look at 923 00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:13,680 Speaker 1: it more, which is crazy because I went on Rafino 924 00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:17,319 Speaker 1: show earlier tonight and I infiltrated his live chat. But 925 00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:22,480 Speaker 1: I'm not paying attention to my own. That's crazy. We'll 926 00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:25,440 Speaker 1: make resolutions. Got a revolution on defense for us. See, 927 00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:28,880 Speaker 1: we are making resolutions on the show. Okay, here we go. No, 928 00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:33,720 Speaker 1: this is not tang in the cup. Charlie from Santa Monica, 929 00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:35,719 Speaker 1: California hit me and said, hey, what's the deal with 930 00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:38,600 Speaker 1: all the Florida State fans hating on you these days? Well, Charlie, 931 00:48:38,640 --> 00:48:40,600 Speaker 1: they don't all hate. In fact, most of them don't, 932 00:48:41,239 --> 00:48:43,879 Speaker 1: but the ones who are vocal do. We have had 933 00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:48,000 Speaker 1: explosive growth actually in the Tallahassee slash Florida State market, 934 00:48:48,280 --> 00:48:51,160 Speaker 1: so we've never had more Florida State folks watching the 935 00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:54,160 Speaker 1: show than we do now. But some of them do 936 00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:57,120 Speaker 1: hate the show. Some of them do strongly dislike me. 937 00:48:57,560 --> 00:49:00,440 Speaker 1: Hates a strong word. They can use it if they 938 00:49:00,440 --> 00:49:03,040 Speaker 1: want to, but some do feel that way, and I 939 00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:04,800 Speaker 1: get it. We've talked about this, but it's been a 940 00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:07,520 Speaker 1: little while, so I'll just quickly walk you down how 941 00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:11,719 Speaker 1: this happened and if you're unfamiliar, but you remember what 942 00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:15,280 Speaker 1: happened with Florida State last year. Here's how this went down. 943 00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:18,520 Speaker 1: They got a lot of reason to be mad, even 944 00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:21,319 Speaker 1: at folks like me. So I haven't fought back on that. 945 00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:22,880 Speaker 1: I've just kind of said it is what it is. 946 00:49:23,040 --> 00:49:27,040 Speaker 1: So Florida State folks believed that they deserved to be 947 00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:29,800 Speaker 1: in the college football playoff last year and they didn't 948 00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:32,280 Speaker 1: make it in and that made them very, very angry. 949 00:49:32,600 --> 00:49:35,920 Speaker 1: They also believed there were a lot of major voices 950 00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:40,160 Speaker 1: and entities in the college football and sports media sphere 951 00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:43,319 Speaker 1: that conspired against them. While I thought a lot of 952 00:49:43,320 --> 00:49:45,600 Speaker 1: that was blown out of proportion, I thought there was 953 00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:48,480 Speaker 1: some validity to that as well. They lumped me in 954 00:49:48,520 --> 00:49:51,960 Speaker 1: with that because I flip flopped my position that I 955 00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:57,560 Speaker 1: admit I've completely changed my opinion on the thing. In 956 00:49:57,640 --> 00:50:00,520 Speaker 1: the latter stages of last season, I went from if 957 00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:03,040 Speaker 1: Florida State is left out of the playoff, it'll be 958 00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:05,400 Speaker 1: a travesty. I think I said something like I'll do 959 00:50:05,480 --> 00:50:08,560 Speaker 1: an entire show talking about how big a travesty that was, 960 00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:10,640 Speaker 1: which was a little hyperbolic, but I did say it. 961 00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:11,880 Speaker 1: So if you hold me to that, you hold me 962 00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:15,360 Speaker 1: to that. I went from saying that to saying I 963 00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:18,600 Speaker 1: thought the committee put the right four teams in. That's 964 00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:22,399 Speaker 1: obviously a change in stance. It looks that way because 965 00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:24,640 Speaker 1: it is. I changed my opinion on the thing, so 966 00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:28,080 Speaker 1: there was no path for me. I mean that this 967 00:50:28,160 --> 00:50:30,560 Speaker 1: is what happened. I got to the end of the 968 00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:33,279 Speaker 1: season and thought about the stuff, thought about stuff. I 969 00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:36,680 Speaker 1: just changed what I thought should happen in my own mind. 970 00:50:36,920 --> 00:50:39,359 Speaker 1: What I thought changed. I don't know if anybody else 971 00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:41,799 Speaker 1: has ever had a change of opinion before I had one, 972 00:50:42,080 --> 00:50:44,400 Speaker 1: and it happened to be on a very high profile topic. 973 00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:48,799 Speaker 1: I wasn't singing a corporate tune, and when it CBS 974 00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:52,920 Speaker 1: told me to do that, no other major personality in 975 00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:55,560 Speaker 1: the space texted me and said, hey, hey, come along 976 00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:58,239 Speaker 1: with us. We're gonna turn on Florida State down with 977 00:50:58,320 --> 00:51:00,080 Speaker 1: the knows. It was nothing like that, at least as 978 00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:02,760 Speaker 1: far as I know. It was nothing like that. I 979 00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:05,080 Speaker 1: just found myself in kind of a no win position 980 00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:07,640 Speaker 1: because I'd already opened my mouth and I said one thing. 981 00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:10,239 Speaker 1: Then I started to feel a different way. So I 982 00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:13,319 Speaker 1: could either suppress how I felt and continue for the 983 00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:16,759 Speaker 1: sake of consistency, saying one thing, or I could just 984 00:51:16,840 --> 00:51:18,960 Speaker 1: change my tune and talk about how I felt in 985 00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:21,520 Speaker 1: the moment and sound like a flip flopper. And that's 986 00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:23,719 Speaker 1: exactly how I sounded. And a lot of Florida State 987 00:51:23,760 --> 00:51:27,320 Speaker 1: folks looked at people like me and they said, good 988 00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:30,440 Speaker 1: for that guy. At least he's still honest, while all 989 00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:32,279 Speaker 1: these other you know what's have turned on us. Well, 990 00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:35,040 Speaker 1: then when I started to sound like them, the Florida 991 00:51:35,120 --> 00:51:38,880 Speaker 1: State folks in some ways took it more personal because 992 00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:41,719 Speaker 1: it was like, oh, we always expected it from them, 993 00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:46,000 Speaker 1: but you. And then it got ugly, at least Internet ugly. 994 00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:50,239 Speaker 1: So here's where I found myself. There was no path 995 00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:52,080 Speaker 1: for me once I started to feel the way I felt. 996 00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:54,440 Speaker 1: There was no path for me because I said, and 997 00:51:54,560 --> 00:51:56,960 Speaker 1: still feel this way. I've not changed how I feel 998 00:51:57,000 --> 00:52:02,320 Speaker 1: about this. I despise when injuries happen late in a 999 00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:07,520 Speaker 1: year and then committees full of people start to think 1000 00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:10,080 Speaker 1: that they know better than the results on the field 1001 00:52:10,640 --> 00:52:13,839 Speaker 1: about what the value of a player is. And then 1002 00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:16,160 Speaker 1: we get that crowd that starts talking about who would 1003 00:52:16,160 --> 00:52:19,480 Speaker 1: be favored against who, And that is not the way 1004 00:52:19,520 --> 00:52:22,120 Speaker 1: sports are supposed to work. It's supposed to be decided 1005 00:52:22,239 --> 00:52:25,400 Speaker 1: on the field. I feel that way, like now I 1006 00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:28,919 Speaker 1: feel that way. So I've got that in one ear 1007 00:52:28,960 --> 00:52:31,759 Speaker 1: here and in the other ear. I also felt like, 1008 00:52:32,280 --> 00:52:36,920 Speaker 1: having considered that, having put that in the blender, I 1009 00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:39,200 Speaker 1: still felt like there were four teams that should be 1010 00:52:39,200 --> 00:52:41,040 Speaker 1: in that thing before Florida State. I thought both of 1011 00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:44,520 Speaker 1: those things. Most other people you heard have the argument, 1012 00:52:44,840 --> 00:52:47,000 Speaker 1: they either just flat out felt Florida State should have 1013 00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:50,520 Speaker 1: been in, or they thought the Travis injury should keep 1014 00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:53,279 Speaker 1: Florida State out. That's not how I necessarily looked at it. 1015 00:52:53,520 --> 00:52:59,680 Speaker 1: So anyway, it's really really it's like a four flavored 1016 00:53:00,560 --> 00:53:02,920 Speaker 1: pot of jello. It just looks it's just taste terrible. 1017 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:04,960 Speaker 1: But that's where my mind was. So I was just 1018 00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:07,600 Speaker 1: completely honest about it. Still am completely honest about it, 1019 00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:09,919 Speaker 1: and a lot of Florida State folks got turned off 1020 00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:12,480 Speaker 1: as a result of that. Now, infinitely more of them 1021 00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:15,040 Speaker 1: who have privately messaged me, said hey, I hate that 1022 00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:17,399 Speaker 1: you feel that way. I do appreciate you at least 1023 00:53:17,480 --> 00:53:19,600 Speaker 1: just shooting straight. I don't have to agree with you 1024 00:53:19,640 --> 00:53:22,640 Speaker 1: on everything, like the show. Thanks for what you do. 1025 00:53:22,680 --> 00:53:25,120 Speaker 1: Blah blah blah. There's no blah like I appreciate you 1026 00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:28,719 Speaker 1: guys saying that, But I just tried to be real 1027 00:53:28,760 --> 00:53:30,960 Speaker 1: about it, and it turned some folks off. And I 1028 00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:32,520 Speaker 1: don't blame you. I mean, if I were a fan 1029 00:53:32,560 --> 00:53:34,839 Speaker 1: of Florida State and I listen to someone say all 1030 00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:37,360 Speaker 1: this stuff I said, I'd probably say, are you serious 1031 00:53:37,480 --> 00:53:39,440 Speaker 1: enough of that guy? I'm gone, I can't, So I 1032 00:53:39,440 --> 00:53:42,280 Speaker 1: can't blame people for feeling like that. If we lost 1033 00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:44,960 Speaker 1: some viewers and listeners over it, we lost some viewers 1034 00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:46,759 Speaker 1: and listeners over it. At the end of the day, 1035 00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:49,600 Speaker 1: you got choices. You got choices, and if our show 1036 00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:52,280 Speaker 1: is not good enough for you, or if that turns 1037 00:53:52,280 --> 00:53:56,680 Speaker 1: you off, it turns you off. Hate it. I didn't 1038 00:53:56,719 --> 00:53:59,080 Speaker 1: want it to be that way. Don't wish it was 1039 00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:02,080 Speaker 1: that way. Love Florida State, love everything about Florida State. 1040 00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:06,000 Speaker 1: Got zero point zero zero percent ill will towards Florida State. 1041 00:54:07,239 --> 00:54:09,920 Speaker 1: Loved the fan base as well. So that's how I 1042 00:54:09,960 --> 00:54:13,399 Speaker 1: feel about it. I saw the rings they made, Now 1043 00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:15,120 Speaker 1: I will tell you where I fall on this. So 1044 00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:19,359 Speaker 1: they made thirteen and o unconquered rings. And there were 1045 00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:21,719 Speaker 1: some people who said, oh, that's pathetic because you didn't 1046 00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:23,640 Speaker 1: make the playoff. What are you making rings for and 1047 00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:25,960 Speaker 1: then there were other people who said you weren't thirteen 1048 00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:28,240 Speaker 1: and oh you were thirteen and one have we forgotten 1049 00:54:28,239 --> 00:54:31,080 Speaker 1: the Orange Bowl? I would have done exactly what Florida 1050 00:54:31,120 --> 00:54:34,120 Speaker 1: State did. I would have made thirteen and oh rings 1051 00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:37,600 Speaker 1: because if you've gotten to the point where they are, 1052 00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:41,120 Speaker 1: you long since stopped caring about what other people think. 1053 00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:44,240 Speaker 1: First off, I would argue you never should have cared, 1054 00:54:44,600 --> 00:54:46,640 Speaker 1: but you've long since stopped caring about that. Number two, 1055 00:54:47,320 --> 00:54:50,279 Speaker 1: everybody who matters knows that the team who played in 1056 00:54:50,280 --> 00:54:52,359 Speaker 1: the Orange Bowl was not Florida State from last year. 1057 00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:58,400 Speaker 1: So if the system, in your opinion, was built against 1058 00:54:58,440 --> 00:55:00,960 Speaker 1: you and then set out to to take you down 1059 00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:04,000 Speaker 1: and then they put you down in Miami to play Georgia, 1060 00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:07,000 Speaker 1: don't honor an outcome you didn't respect being a part 1061 00:55:07,040 --> 00:55:09,400 Speaker 1: of to begin with. And if people like it, if 1062 00:55:09,400 --> 00:55:12,560 Speaker 1: people don't like it, too bad. So I don't plan 1063 00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:14,399 Speaker 1: to get one of those unconquered rings. But I'm saying 1064 00:55:14,440 --> 00:55:17,640 Speaker 1: I like the ring. Hey, we got a lot of 1065 00:55:17,680 --> 00:55:20,040 Speaker 1: folks from the Florida State fan base who watched the show. 1066 00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:23,120 Speaker 1: We got some who used to who don't anymore, who 1067 00:55:23,120 --> 00:55:25,719 Speaker 1: don't respect the show as much it is what it is. 1068 00:55:26,160 --> 00:55:28,080 Speaker 1: I shot straight with you. That's what I'll always do. 1069 00:55:28,520 --> 00:55:30,200 Speaker 1: I could have done the opposite and lied to you 1070 00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:33,080 Speaker 1: about how I felt, but I didn't, So in a nutshell, 1071 00:55:33,600 --> 00:55:37,839 Speaker 1: that is what's going on with Florida State Folks and 1072 00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:41,440 Speaker 1: our show, and that is our show. It felt like 1073 00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:44,160 Speaker 1: it ended on a somber note, but it really didn't. 1074 00:55:44,280 --> 00:55:47,480 Speaker 1: It's been a very very happy period here. We are 1075 00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:50,440 Speaker 1: headed back out on the road for Tuesday. This is 1076 00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:52,920 Speaker 1: the time of year, by the way, typically where we 1077 00:55:53,120 --> 00:55:56,000 Speaker 1: cut back to doing just a Sunday and Thursday show. 1078 00:55:56,040 --> 00:55:57,759 Speaker 1: But we've been on the road so much, and we've 1079 00:55:57,760 --> 00:55:59,840 Speaker 1: been at so many places and had so many sit downs. 1080 00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:02,719 Speaker 1: We've just we haven't really come off our three show 1081 00:56:02,719 --> 00:56:06,360 Speaker 1: per week rotation, and I'm not quite sure when we will. 1082 00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:09,200 Speaker 1: We will eventually, I mean, Collin's got to go to 1083 00:56:09,280 --> 00:56:11,680 Speaker 1: six Flags and lay out by the beach eventually. But 1084 00:56:12,200 --> 00:56:15,479 Speaker 1: we've been putting out a lot of good stuff, really 1085 00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:20,239 Speaker 1: proud of it. We have essentially taken our show out 1086 00:56:20,239 --> 00:56:25,239 Speaker 1: of our studio and added more shows. Like normally we'd 1087 00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:27,040 Speaker 1: just take a three month pause here, and we had 1088 00:56:27,040 --> 00:56:29,879 Speaker 1: that option. Management said, you guys, just want to take 1089 00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:32,160 Speaker 1: three or four month hiatus go ahead, which was a 1090 00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:34,799 Speaker 1: non starter obviously. We actually said no, we'll just do 1091 00:56:34,840 --> 00:56:38,319 Speaker 1: the show on the road, not sacrifice production quality, and 1092 00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:41,280 Speaker 1: we'll do more shows. So we'll be live at Ohio 1093 00:56:41,320 --> 00:56:45,920 Speaker 1: State Tuesday. I will announce probably Wednesday where we're going 1094 00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:47,640 Speaker 1: to be Thursday, but we're going to be in another 1095 00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:50,640 Speaker 1: major program Thursday, and we'll have two more sit downs 1096 00:56:50,640 --> 00:56:54,760 Speaker 1: with major head coaches in college football, and spoiler alert, 1097 00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:56,719 Speaker 1: I think we'll probably be on the road the week 1098 00:56:56,760 --> 00:56:59,360 Speaker 1: after that as well. So no end in sight. Just 1099 00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:01,479 Speaker 1: got to make sure we fly back Friday to play 1100 00:57:01,480 --> 00:57:04,440 Speaker 1: softball because the team is four and zero on the 1101 00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:08,640 Speaker 1: young season and it feels good.
