00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:28,639
Speaker 3: Welcome back.

9
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 1: There was about a fifteen year period that I thought

10
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:35,920
Speaker 1: outside of Ohio State, Big ten schools just didn't have

11
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:40,639
Speaker 1: the depth of talent that the LSUS and the Alabama's had.

12
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 1: Ohio State was sort of I used to call them

13
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:46,480
Speaker 1: the SEC up North. They had the money, the facilities,

14
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 1: the coaching, But Michigan wanna Naty, Buckeyes Winnati. The two

15
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 1: best players in the country next year are a receiver

16
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 1: in a corner Caleb Downs Jeremiah Smith or Buckeyes. And

17
00:00:57,440 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 1: I think Penn State has the best backfield in the country.

18
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 1: And I think I have the Nitney Lyons winning a Natty.

19
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 1: Although I think it's hard to you know, the journey

20
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 1: through the Big Ten now is tough because Washington and

21
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 1: USC are going to be better. Urban Meyer is now

22
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 1: joining US Urban for years and years you knew, and

23
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:15,480
Speaker 1: I knew, and the world knew the SEC was better.

24
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 1: And I don't know. I don't know who's better in

25
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:20,960
Speaker 1: the middle or the tail end. But I think if

26
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 1: you took the top four teams today in the Big Ten,

27
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 1: which would be Ohio State, Penn State, Oregon, and then

28
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 1: we can argue over for I think they are today

29
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 1: as good mine Lean is slightly better than the SEC.

30
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,559
Speaker 1: Where are you at having coached in both conferences today?

31
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 4: The transition of the Big Ten has been phenomenal. On

32
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,120
Speaker 4: the triple option, we had James Franklin.

33
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 3: We talked about that because.

34
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 4: He came into the league a couple of years after

35
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 4: I did. In twenty twelve, calling it wasn't even close.

36
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,920
Speaker 4: It was shocking. There were great players in the Big Ten,

37
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 4: but the stadium atmospheres were just okay. The depth of

38
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 4: talent was not there, and the certainly the bottom half

39
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 4: the Big Ten just wasn't very good. That's changed, that's

40
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 4: changed dramatically. The stadium atmospheres are incredible. The addition of

41
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 4: the four teams for the Pac twelve, I mean, those

42
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 4: are four legit teams. And how about this stat this

43
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:25,519
Speaker 4: is interesting. In nine there were twenty eight players drafted

44
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 4: average in the Big Ten. This past year there were

45
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 4: seventy one.

46
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:31,639
Speaker 3: That's over double.

47
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 4: So how do you measure conferences? Championships? Big Ten the

48
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 4: last two years? And those are two great teams, the

49
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 4: Wolverines and the Buckeys, great teams. But then the second

50
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 4: way to measure at the NFL and the SECS. I

51
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,519
Speaker 4: think it's nineteen straight years they've had more draft picks

52
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 4: than everyone else. They still do, but the Big pen's

53
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 4: much closer.

54
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think you know, we sometimes because Michigan

55
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 1: and Ohio State and Penn State are such big brands,

56
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,359
Speaker 1: we kind of forget about Washington and Oregon. And I've

57
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: said this before about Washington. Every time in my life

58
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:11,639
Speaker 1: they've had a great coach, Don James, I mean new

59
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 1: Heisel got him to a Rose Bowl, Chris Peterson, Caylin

60
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 1: de Boorr. Every time they have an elite coach, they

61
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 1: end up in a playoff. And I don't think people

62
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,800
Speaker 1: in the at least in the South. I think they

63
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 1: do in the Midwest. They don't understand how good Oregon

64
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 1: is as a football program, whereas the SEC added Texas

65
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 1: and Oklahoma. I think people view those as big brands.

66
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 1: Tell me how you view Oregon in Washington? Forget to

67
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 1: sc for a second. I don't think those schools get

68
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 1: the national respect. But I would argue Oregon and Washington

69
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 1: right now, are Oregon's better than Oklahoma? Washington's on the

70
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 1: same plateau? Where are you on that?

71
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 4: I think nashally, Oregon's a different it's a different duck,

72
00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:02,559
Speaker 4: but it's everybody looks at Oregon now. I mean the uniforms,

73
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 4: the stadium, the success they've had. I think I actually

74
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 4: considered them a blue blood right now, even though they've

75
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 4: not won a national championship. The Washington now, I spend

76
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 4: time at Colorado State, I spent time at Utah's recruited

77
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 4: out West Washington is a diamond and like you said,

78
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 4: they've always had when they have Don James, they have

79
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 4: Brick new Heisl, they have some of those coaches, Chris Peterson.

80
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 4: You're in the national championship hunt. They were just recently

81
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 4: in the championship hunt with Kailen Debors. So you added

82
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 4: two great brands to the SEC. But I'll tell you what,

83
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 4: you got three legits and you just went how about this?

84
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 4: In the SEC? I count nine teams that are expected

85
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 4: to compete and win a national championship for years are

86
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,280
Speaker 4: just three in the Big Ten outs five, So they've added.

87
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 4: There's been some really strength added to the Big Ten.

88
00:04:55,520 --> 00:05:00,160
Speaker 1: I think a lot of we all know the elite

89
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 1: and coaches in college. It feels like a young man's game,

90
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,719
Speaker 1: and I think one of the advantages the Big Ten

91
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: has now. Franklin's a great recruiter, Ryan Day's a great recruiter.

92
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 1: Michigan has always been a solid. I think Dan Lanning

93
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 1: is a great recruiter. Also, a big nil USC now

94
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 1: has the number one twenty twenty six class Jed Fish

95
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,600
Speaker 1: has always been even at Arizona, you got all sorts

96
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 1: of NFL guys. Is that the reality is the Big

97
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 1: Ten now has excellent recruiting coaches. That feels like a

98
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,359
Speaker 1: big part of it. I mean, when you were in

99
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,640
Speaker 1: the SEC, who was beating you in the Big Ten

100
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:38,840
Speaker 1: for players? I think there's guys now in the Big

101
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 1: Ten that go down south and pull players up.

102
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 3: I'm glad you brought that up, because this is real life.

103
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 4: I leave the SEC and I come to Ohio State

104
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 4: and there was something called a Gentleman's Agreement and the

105
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 4: Gentleman's coach Bilama got really pissed off at me when

106
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 4: we turned a couple players, and I didn't know gentlemen agreement.

107
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:00,839
Speaker 4: I'm sure what that means. Recruiting, you got to go

108
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:04,159
Speaker 4: get players. We had two kids from Ohio committed to Wisconsin.

109
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 4: Then we got them, we flipped them, and people were saying, well,

110
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 4: you know, in this conference, you don't do that, and

111
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 4: I was like, I don't. I not saw that anywhere

112
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,279
Speaker 4: in my contract. That's not against the rules. I got

113
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 4: a job at Ohio State to go win games, so

114
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 4: I'm going to recruit whoever the heck we want to recruit.

115
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:25,479
Speaker 4: So the recruiting has changed dramatically. Like you said, you

116
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:29,240
Speaker 4: think about the Big Ten coaches that are elite recruiters.

117
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 4: I'm not saying they weren't back in twenty twelve, but

118
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,360
Speaker 4: there wasn't the emphasis on it is now. And as

119
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 4: a result, look at the difference. I just told you

120
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 4: seventy one players drafted in the Big Ten Conference last

121
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,600
Speaker 4: year compared to twenty eight just ten years ago, fifteen

122
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:44,119
Speaker 4: years ago.

123
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:45,000

138
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 1: The recruiting has changed in college football. I you know,

139
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 1: I don't fight new stuffs. If new stuff comes in,

140
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 1: there's new rules, there's new cultures. I'm just gonna, you know,

141
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna try to figure out, like Rick Patino said

142
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 1: on my show recently, when the world changes, you can

143
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 1: you can fight it, or you can figure out a

144
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 1: way to solve the new world. If you were recruiting now,

145
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: let's say you're a Buckeye and and you're recruiting or

146
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 1: a Gator, whatever it is, how would you attack the

147
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 1: NIL How would you attack it?

148
00:07:57,720 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 3: I would.

149
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 4: You got to get players, and I would attack it

150
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 4: the way the big schools are attacking it. I would

151
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 4: have find out. I would have distribution. I would have

152
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 4: a GM. I think Mark Pantoni, the guy we hired

153
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 4: here years ago, he still at Ohio State. I still

154
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 4: talk to him once in a while about how they

155
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 4: do this. But you know, you have to put emphasis

156
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 4: if they're if everybody's abiding by the same rules, which

157
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 4: now they are.

158
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 3: A year ago, it wasn't the case.

159
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 4: You could go out and you spend and through the

160
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 4: collectives as much as you can. But I would put

161
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 4: premium on positions a lot like they do the NFL.

162
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 4: You got to pay what you got to pay for

163
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:33,400
Speaker 4: a quarterback, for defense, ends, corners and receivers. You have

164
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 4: to do it. And I'd pay that center, so I would.

165
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,439
Speaker 4: I would distribute and build the best team you could

166
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,680
Speaker 4: possibly can. And that's that's kind of what the top

167
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 4: teams are doing right now.

168
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, the you know, it's funny how you perceive a

169
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 1: coach and how the public does. I've always loved Sark,

170
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:58,839
Speaker 1: but I've said this about Sark. Great recruiter, great with quarterbacks, hustler.

171
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,440
Speaker 1: Sometimes on the details. I kind of feel like he

172
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 1: lets the game flow and occasionally I'll watch him and

173
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 1: think it gets a little away from him. But again

174
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 1: I'm nitpicking. How do you view Sark when you do

175
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 1: a Texas game or you watch Texas? What do you see?

176
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:19,440
Speaker 1: Does he have a trend? Does he have a tell like?

177
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 1: How do you view Sark?

178
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 4: Why have friends that are around Sark that know him well?

179
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:28,200
Speaker 4: I know him fairly well. He's always been great to me.

180
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 4: I think he's the elite offense. I mean that, I'm

181
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 4: on to state the obvious. First, he's an elite offensive coach.

182
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:35,920
Speaker 4: He was in the NFL, he was in college as

183
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,560
Speaker 4: an assistant. As a head coach, they're always going to

184
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 4: be spectacular in offense. But a lot like Lincoln Riley,

185
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 4: is that you have to grow as a head coach.

186
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,200
Speaker 4: You don't get championships for offense. That's not how this

187
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 4: game works. You get championships for great defense, not turning

188
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,840
Speaker 4: the ball over, and efficient offense. And I think he's

189
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 4: grown into the position. He's still relatively young, even though

190
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:00,960
Speaker 4: he's had some great jobs. Vim as one of the

191
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 4: top coaches in the country, and that's why I got

192
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:03,440
Speaker 4: Texas is.

193
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,320
Speaker 3: I haven't picked them for sure yet, but I'm still

194
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 3: studying it.

195
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,679
Speaker 4: But I think most people have that preseason number one

196
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 4: with a returning quarterback.

197
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,440
Speaker 1: You know a program you know well as LSU, and

198
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,839
Speaker 1: I like Brian Kelly, but it is a again, you

199
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:23,960
Speaker 1: are recruiting your own players. You're everything's moving, and I

200
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,680
Speaker 1: Brian Kelly and Lincoln Riley. I look at him and

201
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 1: I think it doesn't quite look like I think it

202
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 1: should look yet, and Saban got out of it. I

203
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,319
Speaker 1: saw in college basketball coach k and Jay Wright are

204
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 1: like a young man's game.

205
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:38,960
Speaker 3: I'm getting out of this.

206
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,199
Speaker 1: Let's say LSU is okay this year. Now I like

207
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 1: their quarterback. I think they're going to be better than okay.

208
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 1: But is there an argument with all the movement, there's

209
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 1: no off season that for the guys that are post sixty,

210
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:56,199
Speaker 1: it's harder now than it's ever been.

211
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:00,559
Speaker 4: Well, you got to connect with players, and you look

212
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 4: at the best connecting guys and it's it's real as

213
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,720
Speaker 4: the younger the younger generation, and that's always been kind

214
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 4: of the the facts of coaching players. You know, you

215
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 4: have young guys on your staff. A big part of

216
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:14,440
Speaker 4: that is what to read the locker room, to let

217
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 4: you know the locker room. So Brian Kelly, I admire him,

218
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,200
Speaker 4: we're friends. We coached against each other. I visited his programs,

219
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,760
Speaker 4: he's visited mine. To think that he's still coaching, I

220
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:26,960
Speaker 4: you know, I didn't see that happening. And then he

221
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 4: saw an opportunity at LSU. And I'll tell you this

222
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 4: about Brian Kelly's driven and he wants that national championship

223
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 4: and then you don't move from South Bend.

224
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:36,080
Speaker 6: Uh.

225
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 4: He did it for one reason and that's to go

226
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 4: get that crystal ball.

227
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 3: So I know it's driving.

228
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:43,440
Speaker 4: Him and he's he's one of those guys when he

229
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 4: when he pushes really hard, great things happened. So yeah,

230
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:48,720
Speaker 4: I didn't I didn't see that when happening. I didn't

231
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,960
Speaker 4: see him coaching this long. But when he saw that

232
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 4: opportunity showed up at LSU, we actually talked about it

233
00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 4: a couple of years ago. He just thinks that spectacular

234
00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 4: and the chance he can win it all.

235
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 1: Finally, you guys at Ohio State, you picked up produced

236
00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 1: tight end again, another exceptional class. It's Caleb Downs, It's

237
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 1: Jeremiah Smith. Everybody loves the quarterback. If I said, give

238
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 1: me your top three teams in the country, just in personnel,

239
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:17,720
Speaker 1: I don't want to look at this schedule. If I

240
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 1: just said, like last year, by the end of the year,

241
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 1: Ohio State had more good players than everybody. They looked

242
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,400
Speaker 1: like those Alabama teams where they were like Tyson in

243
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:30,439
Speaker 1: their prime. People were getting intimidated. Name the three best

244
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 1: rosters right now, personnel in America.

245
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:36,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, you said, you guys at Ohio State. I'm at

246
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 4: Fox I know, I know.

247
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:39,120
Speaker 3: I was.

248
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 4: Texas, Texas, Ohio State and Penn State is following the

249
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 4: lead of the Wolverines and the Buckeyes, and that is

250
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 4: they have more seniors. Think about this, colin, that I'd

251
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:54,720
Speaker 4: never had a chance to coach fourth year players if

252
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 4: I did, is very rare. And the difference between a

253
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 4: fourth year player and a rookie or a freshman is

254
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,199
Speaker 4: night and day. You're coaching grown ass men. You're coaching

255
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:06,960
Speaker 4: that's a that's a men's locker room compared to young person.

256
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 3: So I watch out for Penn State. Man.

257
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:12,320
Speaker 4: If Drew Aller can really improve as a quarterback, I

258
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 4: agree with you. To get the best backfield. I don't

259
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 4: think it's close in the country. They got an offensive

260
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 4: line that they can't wait to get on the field.

261
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 4: So yeah, I think Penn State, Texas, and Ohio State

262
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:23,880
Speaker 4: are three most talented.

263
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, Urban Meyer, there's a golf course waiting.

264
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,559
Speaker 3: There's a four iron waiting for you to grab it.

265
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,560
Speaker 3: So I have first chased by I'll see it, Gina

266
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 3: and George Etti's in Chicago.

267
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:37,520
Speaker 1: And day tell me when you're in town.

268
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 3: I'm ready for it. Yeah.

269
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 1: So Michigan, Michigan two years ago, Ohio State last year.

270
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,520
Speaker 1: Penn States might call to beat Texas in the National Championship.

271
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 1: You know, keep your eye on Oregon. Yeah, keep your

272
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,880
Speaker 1: eye on Oregon. But I think they're really good. Ohio

273
00:13:54,880 --> 00:14:00,080
Speaker 1: State will obviously be good. Jmack with the News, No, no,

274
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 1: this is the herd line. You're so fired up for college.

275
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:06,680
Speaker 1: But you know what, you know how irritating that's going

276
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,960
Speaker 1: to be to SEC fans if it goes Michigan, Ohio State,

277
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 1: Penn State, that's going to be irritating. The tide has turned,

278
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 1: my friend, the big ten at the top is better

279
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 1: than the SEC. If Ohio, If Penn State wins this year,

280
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 1: you can't argue it it's over.

281
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 7: This is quite a leap to Penn State winning the NATTI.

282
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 3: Yeah.

283
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 7: I know you're a Midwest guy now, but next time

284
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 7: you come out west, you want to hit Vegas. Put

285
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,200
Speaker 7: some money where your mouth is on Penn State. I

286
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 7: come on, really, you think it win in the National Javyshop.

287
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 1: First round running back, first round quarterback, and as as

288
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 1: Urban said, uh, very very talented. All that. They've always

289
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:49,120
Speaker 1: recruited the old line, they're gonna be really and Franklin

290
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 1: is an elite recruiter. You know, Penn State's one of

291
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 1: those programs because it's out in the middle of nowhere.

292
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:57,120
Speaker 1: It gets you know, it's independent for years and years

293
00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 1: Joe Paterno and it was up there and they over

294
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:07,359
Speaker 1: the hills. And let me tell you something, facility, fan base, revenue, athletes,

295
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 1: it's a real deal.

296
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 7: We got a family member going to We have freshman

297
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:12,040
Speaker 7: at Penn.

298
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 8: State next here.

299
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 7: So I'll be something of a fan for the Ninny Lions,

300
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 7: but can't get on board with Naddy. All right, let's

301
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 7: go to the NFL. Colin Travis Hunter. He's one of

302
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,840
Speaker 7: the big names to watch this season. The new Jaguars

303
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 7: wide receiver slash dB. Well, his teammate Josh Heinz Allen

304
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 7: the pass rusher, gave his two cents on the Travis

305
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 7: Hunter playing both ways situation during an appearance on The

306
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 7: Rich Eisen Show.

307
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:40,720
Speaker 6: What plagues every NFL player or any professional athlete his injuries.

308
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 6: I think if he can allow himself to stay healthy, yes,

309
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 6: and take care of that getting the hyperbaric scene. Yeah,

310
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 6: I think. I think he has a great career ahead

311
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 6: of him both sides of the ball. Again, if he's

312
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 6: the best dB, is he the best wide receiver?

313
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 3: Who knows?

314
00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:00,280
Speaker 6: But is he a great playmaker on both sides of ye?

315
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 3: Yes he is. Wow. I mean I can't wait to

316
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:04,360
Speaker 3: watch him.

317
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:09,680
Speaker 7: Are we getting a little too excited for a rookie?

318
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:12,160
Speaker 7: Are you putting too much presser on this kid? Is

319
00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 7: he a great playmaker on both sides of the football?

320
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 8: Yeah? He was at Colorado.

321
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 1: No, I think we have to be on it. The

322
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 1: NFL is different than the NBA. Is that Micah Parsons

323
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 1: walked into the NFL Aiden hushes and walked in, Jared

324
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 1: Vers walked in. I mean, you can guys, first round

325
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 1: talent walk in and oh wow, they're really great.

326
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:33,640
Speaker 3: We see it.

327
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 1: Jaden Daniels walks in and you're like, is he a

328
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 1: top six quarterback in the league. This is not college

329
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 1: basketball or college baseball where you go to the miners.

330
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 1: These guys come out with three and four years against

331
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 1: NFL players. Brian Thomas last year like, I mean that

332
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:51,080
Speaker 1: harball loved him. They took a tackle instead. So I

333
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,000
Speaker 1: think there's no I mean, I think he'll walk on

334
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:56,400
Speaker 1: the field. I think he's the best athlete right now

335
00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:58,640
Speaker 1: Jacksonville has, and I think all the players know he's

336
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:00,920
Speaker 1: about tow doesn't mean to be the best player, right

337
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:04,159
Speaker 1: but in terms of best athlete, I think Jacksonville players

338
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,960
Speaker 1: look around and go, yeah, that guy's probably our best athlete.

339
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:07,440
Speaker 2: Pretty good.

340
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 7: All right, let's stay in the NFL. Go to Kyler Murray.

341
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:11,720
Speaker 7: We touched on him earlier. Is he going to be

342
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 7: a flash point this season?

343
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:13,159
Speaker 9: Colin?

344
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 7: We will see.

345
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:17,200
Speaker 8: He's just had a rough few seasons.

346
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:19,920
Speaker 7: Last season was the first time since twenty twenty that

347
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,200
Speaker 7: Kyler started all seventeen games.

348
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,440
Speaker 8: Had over four thousand yards and twenty six touchdowns.

349
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:29,120
Speaker 7: However, his teammate Buddha Baker believes Kyler is the NFL's

350
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:33,159
Speaker 7: most underrated quarterback, adding he's kind of been in his

351
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 7: bag the whole offseason. He's gonna do it all. I

352
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,120
Speaker 7: don't know, I think underrated quarterback. I do not think

353
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 7: Kyler Murray. I would go the opposite way, he's a

354
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 7: little overrated. Do you consider Kyler Murray underrated?

355
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:48,639
Speaker 1: No, I think he's rated exactly where he should be.

356
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:54,159
Speaker 1: Stop a little small, a little distracted. I think, you know,

357
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 1: I mean, I think I think by and large, in

358
00:17:56,560 --> 00:18:01,720
Speaker 1: this league, quarterbacks are I mean, we can argue, where

359
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 1: is Jalen Hurt six or nine?

360
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:04,639
Speaker 7: Five?

361
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 1: You know, I think brock perty is closer to fifteen.

362
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,920
Speaker 1: You think he's closer to seven. We can argue about

363
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 1: guys like that. But by and large, I think I

364
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 1: think one of the things that's absolutely fairly rated is

365
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:21,399
Speaker 1: NFL quarterbacks. I think I think by and large we

366
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 1: all know the top four or five, and then we

367
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,880
Speaker 1: have a sense of the next six or seven, and

368
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 1: I think Kyler is on the out of that. You know,

369
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 1: he's like in that thirteen ish twelve to fifteen sixteen,

370
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 1: And I think that's I think he's got.

371
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:35,439
Speaker 8: Hold hold up?

372
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 7: Is that on talent and potential or what he's shown

373
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:40,720
Speaker 7: because those are.

374
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:41,640
Speaker 8: Two very different things.

375
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 1: What I've seen on the field, he's somewhere between thirteen

376
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:51,680
Speaker 1: and sixteen in terms of Sunday opening kickoff. He's my quarterback.

377
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,440
Speaker 1: Here's what's going to happen. And I think I think

378
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,880
Speaker 1: I don't think there's a position in the NFL in

379
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:00,359
Speaker 1: sports that it's because we talk about it so much.

380
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:04,639
Speaker 1: It's very fairly. Again, we can argue about Brock Purby.

381
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 1: There's always one guy. For years and years people were

382
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 1: critical of Lamar Jackson. The guy wins seventy six percent

383
00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:12,520
Speaker 1: of his games. He's somewhere in the top six or seven.

384
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 1: I think he's closer to four than he is to eight.

385
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 1: But you know, Jalen hurts to me because of their

386
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 1: O line and run game and star talent. It's a

387
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:24,320
Speaker 1: little overinflated. When Greg Cosell comes on for years, which

388
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:26,160
Speaker 1: he did by the way, with Russell Wilson and says

389
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 1: he doesn't see the field.

390
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:28,160
Speaker 3: Great.

391
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 1: I trust Greg Cosell over fans and media, so but

392
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 1: most quarterbacks we kind of know what if I say

393
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:37,360
Speaker 1: a name of a quarterback and you and I put

394
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 1: a number on it, our number usually is going to

395
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:40,719
Speaker 1: be fairly close.

396
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,240
Speaker 7: Oh, I like Greg Cosell seems like a nice guy.

397
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 7: Never I think I didn't meet him actually at the

398
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:49,320
Speaker 7: super Bowl. But Colin, like, we have a lot of

399
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,200
Speaker 7: data that shows Jalen Hurts is winning from the pocket.

400
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 7: He's winning big games, He's putting up huge numbers. Just

401
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:58,000
Speaker 7: because some games he doesn't pass a lot. I think

402
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,880
Speaker 7: we're giving him an unfair like shake when it comes

403
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 7: to Kyler Murray, Colin, he has the same number of

404
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:06,880
Speaker 7: playoff wins. Let me see Justin Herbert Tua.

405
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 8: I think at.

406
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 1: Once, if Kyler Murray too and Justin Herbert are on

407
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 1: the market, think like a GM your owner would fire

408
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 1: you if you didn't take Justin Hurt Justin Herbert obviously easily.

409
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 1: Now you got to contextualized playoff wins. If you're six

410
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:26,680
Speaker 1: or five with a big arm and move, and you're

411
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:29,440
Speaker 1: smart with a four to two major in biology, I'm

412
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 1: gonna take you over to and Jalen Hurt. If I

413
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 1: gave you Jalen Hurts or Kyler Murray, who you take it.

414
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,960
Speaker 1: You tend to look at wins. I tend to try

415
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 1: to look at traits. You and I just see quarterback differently.

416
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 3: I'm trace.

417
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:42,199
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna look at Wins.

418
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:45,360
Speaker 8: I look at Trey not always Jalen Hurts or Kyler Murray.

419
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,240
Speaker 3: Who would you take Jalen Hurts.

420
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:49,959
Speaker 7: Yeah, he's scared there for a moment. Calary, All right,

421
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:51,520
Speaker 7: final story. Let's go to baseball.

422
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 6: Colin.

423
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:53,400
Speaker 8: Today is a special.

424
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:58,040
Speaker 7: Date, July first, Bobby Bonia Day, reminding all Mets fans

425
00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 7: that they owe Bobby Bonia another one point two million dollars.

426
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:05,439
Speaker 7: One of the wildest contracts in sports history goes.

427
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:06,640
Speaker 8: All the way back to two thousand.

428
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 7: So the metsid wanted to buy out Bobby Bonia, and

429
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:12,200
Speaker 7: instead of paying it out in full, they decided they'd

430
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:16,160
Speaker 7: make annual payments of one point two million for twenty

431
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:21,359
Speaker 7: five years. So Colin, up until twenty thirty five, Bobby

432
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,200
Speaker 7: Bonia is going to get one point two million dollars.

433
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 8: There's It's similar to the lottery. You win, like a

434
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 8: big lottery.

435
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:29,920
Speaker 7: Do you want the instant payout or do you want

436
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 7: the annuity where you get every year you get XM L.

437
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 1: Well, if you trust yourself and have discipline, you take

438
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 1: the money immediately and investor invest it. You know, athletes historically,

439
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 1: you know I would probably say athletes should take the

440
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,879
Speaker 1: money over the course of twenty five years. The rule

441
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: on the lottery, I've all this is a fascinating topic

442
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 1: to me.

443
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 3: The rule on the lottery has always.

444
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,399
Speaker 1: Been, you take the money up front, you take the

445
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 1: big money, don't worry about to pay out. But here's

446
00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 1: the downside. What if you take the money up front

447
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:04,680
Speaker 1: COVID hits market crashes. WHOA if you take it over

448
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:08,880
Speaker 1: twenty five years, You're not beholden to a hot market.

449
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 1: You're not in trouble with a cool market. Is We've

450
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:15,800
Speaker 1: had market crashes about over the course of the dal

451
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:19,560
Speaker 1: Jones every seven years, you get turbulence. It's doing very

452
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:22,320
Speaker 1: well now, but I do think there's peace of mind.

453
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 1: Like a lot of people pay off their homes. They

454
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 1: tell you should not pay off your home, but a

455
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,360
Speaker 1: lot of people do because they want to sleep at night,

456
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 1: they want the home.

457
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:31,679
Speaker 3: They don't want to think about it.

458
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:35,000
Speaker 1: So I've thought about this, if I sold a company,

459
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,480
Speaker 1: or if I how would I want the payouts? And

460
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:40,359
Speaker 1: my takeaways always been I'm boring and disciplined, so I

461
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,760
Speaker 1: take the money up front. But I think Bobby Benia

462
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:46,240
Speaker 1: probably thought you know what, man, this is easy. I

463
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 1: just a twenty five year annuity million point two a year.

464
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 1: I don't have a problem with it.

465
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:54,960
Speaker 7: So it's interesting. Our producer put together a list of names.

466
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:57,160
Speaker 7: Bobby Bunia is currently.

467
00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:58,840
Speaker 8: Getting paid more than these young.

468
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:01,440
Speaker 7: Baseball stars, and the jumps out as the Pirates pitcher

469
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 7: Paul Skeens, who is like a phenom in a superstar.

470
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,399
Speaker 7: Bobby Bonia, who's been out of the league for like

471
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,639
Speaker 7: sixteen years, is making more money than him. It's just

472
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:13,640
Speaker 7: a genius contract. Applauding Bobby Bonia, wish more athletes kind

473
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:14,560

Speaker 7: Coverage begins tomorrow six Eastern on FS one.

486
00:23:54,600 --> 00:24:00,680
Speaker 1: Tyler Adams was the captain of the last World Cup team.

487
00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,280
Speaker 1: So I have been on this thing where I have

488
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:07,439
Speaker 1: supported Christian Polisic, and a lot of it's because I've

489
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:13,600
Speaker 1: always compared international soccer stars with basketball stars and that

490
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:15,879
Speaker 1: you know, Jokic is going to play for his country

491
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:19,440
Speaker 1: in the Olympics and in the NBA, and I've argued

492
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,639
Speaker 1: that now we have and Tyler Adams is one of

493
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 1: these players. He's played for Leads and Germany. He's played,

494
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 1: he's been playing overseas making big money for years and years.

495
00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 1: And my take is when athletes get to that level,

496
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 1: they should play for cash and then play for country

497
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 1: and then you know, the feeble World Basketball Championships. If

498
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:41,080
Speaker 1: you pass on that, you can play. But if you pass,

499
00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:41,640
Speaker 1: I'm not going.

500
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:42,040
Speaker 3: To judge you.

501
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:44,880
Speaker 1: And I feel a little bit like that, even though

502
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,240
Speaker 1: Fox has that it's a gold cop and I'm totally

503
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:56,600
Speaker 1: into it. I do think have we reconnected? Always good?

504
00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 1: Ready to go? All right, let's bring him in. Tyler

505
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:02,720
Speaker 1: Adams is now joining US, who turned pro at sixteen,

506
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:04,879
Speaker 1: he's now twenty six. He's one of the old lads.

507
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,200
Speaker 1: He's one of the leaders. So I've been arguing, I've

508
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:11,960
Speaker 1: been defending guys like you and Polisic. I say, listen,

509
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:15,440
Speaker 1: when you're that good, just like Jokic in the NBA

510
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:20,240
Speaker 1: or Lebron James, get paid for you, guys, that means

511
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:22,600
Speaker 1: go overseas. For Yokic, it means come to the NBA

512
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:24,159
Speaker 1: and then play for your country. So I call it

513
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:28,200
Speaker 1: the cash in the country. Then if you don't want

514
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,960
Speaker 1: to participate in let's say a Gold Cup or a

515
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 1: Foeba Basketball World Championship, I'm okay with that because you

516
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:39,199
Speaker 1: have literally elevated yourself to another status, and so I

517
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 1: defend that. I think Tyler, if you chose not to

518
00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:45,200
Speaker 1: play here, I'd be okay with it. I've defended Polisic.

519
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:49,000
Speaker 1: Is my take a bad take? How do you view

520
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:53,359
Speaker 1: that that there are certain global athletes that may pass

521
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,719
Speaker 1: on certain tournaments?

522
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:56,760
Speaker 3: How do you view that?

523
00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:01,400
Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean, I think is in a unique situation.

524
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:02,560
Speaker 3: You know.

525
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:04,639
Speaker 9: You take Christian for instance, he's been playing with the

526
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 9: national team since he was sixteen, has seventy has been majorments,

527
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:12,600
Speaker 9: and he chose to take arrest to recover for his

528
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,160
Speaker 9: body and for him the amount of games he's played

529
00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 9: at the age that he is, he deserves a break.

530
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:21,159
Speaker 9: So I think everyone is in a different situation. You know,

531
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,119
Speaker 9: I've missed a little bit of time with injuries. I

532
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 9: felt okay to come into the tournament and that's why

533
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:27,600
Speaker 9: I'm here, and I'm excited to represent my country with

534
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:28,800
Speaker 9: this amazing team that we have.

535
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,360
Speaker 10: So everybody is in a completely different situation.

536
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:35,359
Speaker 9: But yeah, we're building on something special here and you know,

537
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:36,640
Speaker 9: we have another big tournament.

538
00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:38,120
Speaker 10: A lot of more guys are gonna be year.

539
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:42,720
Speaker 1: So during the penalty kicks, I'm an absolute nervous wreck.

540
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 2: I can't.

541
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 1: I can't even. It's like you can barely. You're sitting

542
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:50,680
Speaker 1: on the couch thinking, oh what what is going through

543
00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:52,600
Speaker 1: your mind before you kick?

544
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:53,159
Speaker 3: Tyler?

545
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 1: Have you decided on a side? Are you watching the

546
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 1: goalies instincts? Do you make a decision on what that

547
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:04,199
Speaker 1: kick is going to look like?

548
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:07,080
Speaker 10: A little bit of everything.

549
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,600
Speaker 9: We have amazing analysts here in the club that said

550
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:13,080
Speaker 9: up for for Suce. We've been practicing that every day

551
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:15,680
Speaker 9: after training for the situation that we might be in them.

552
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:18,600
Speaker 9: For myself, I walk up with confidence and know that,

553
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:21,959
Speaker 9: you know, God forbid, I miss that teammate. How can

554
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 9: you look at our penalty shootout and our goalkeeper had

555
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 9: an amazing penalty shootout and he saved saved our team

556
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,080
Speaker 9: in a lot of situations. So you know, you have

557
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 9: to have confidence to be able to step up to

558
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,520
Speaker 9: the spot. But our team did unbelievable.

559
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,400
Speaker 1: So you are a veteran on this team right now,

560
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 1: you're twenty six years old, turn pro, you've played over

561
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:44,280
Speaker 1: in Europe. This group of young players you're playing with,

562
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 1: give me somebody I should keep my eye on, Give

563
00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:49,840
Speaker 1: me your sense of our kind of because it's you.

564
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:52,960
Speaker 1: A couple other guys may make the World Cup team,

565
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,960
Speaker 1: but what do you see with the next crop that

566
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:58,680
Speaker 1: are younger than you, that want to be Tyler Adams

567
00:27:58,680 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 1: in two to three years.

568
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 9: There's so many good players in our grow I sell

569
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 9: a lot of these guys because for me, I came

570
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 9: from MLS. I was the first league that I played

571
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:12,359
Speaker 9: in and a lot of our rosters built around MLS players,

572
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:14,600
Speaker 9: and you could see that it's getting better better, because

573
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:16,880
Speaker 9: if you have the opportunity to represent your national team,

574
00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 9: you're doing something right. But you know, guys like Quinn

575
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:23,640
Speaker 9: Sullivan Diego Luna, Jack McGlenn, Paxton Aaronson.

576
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 10: A lot of these guys are makings for themselves.

577
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:28,760
Speaker 9: At the highest level, and if they're not to go

578
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:32,160
Speaker 9: to Europe soon, they're gonna keep developing an MLS. So yeah,

579
00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:34,080
Speaker 9: there's a lot of bright prospects on our team right now.

580
00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 1: How important the World Cups in eleven months? Does winning this?

581
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,640
Speaker 1: Does it matter? Does it create inertia or is it

582
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:46,640
Speaker 1: one of those things like, listen, We're gonna have a

583
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 1: lot of different guys in the World Cup. Do you

584
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 1: think the Gold Cup matters? Just winning? Does it feel

585
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 1: different going into the next eleven months.

586
00:28:58,040 --> 00:28:59,920
Speaker 9: Playing in knockout game? I think is always an ex

587
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:01,080
Speaker 9: experience that everyone's going to.

588
00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 10: Be able to take into the wors.

589
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:05,440
Speaker 9: For all of these guys on our team right now,

590
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:08,160
Speaker 9: it's an experience that we might not have in the

591
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:10,040
Speaker 9: in the next eleven months until the World Cup.

592
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:11,320
Speaker 10: So you want to have that feeling.

593
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 9: You want to be able to go to penalties and

594
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 9: create this winning atmosphere because you know better than anyone

595
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 9: in covering sports, winning becomes contagious, and I think it's

596
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,400
Speaker 9: a mentality that a lot of these young guys need

597
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 9: to develop, So we'll continue to build that and I think,

598
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:25,280
Speaker 9: you know, winning this thing give a lot of excitement

599
00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:26,000
Speaker 9: to a lot of fans.

600
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,680
Speaker 1: If I'd never watched this team play with a new coach,

601
00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 1: Mauricio Pochettino, if I've never seen it, describe how it

602
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:37,200
Speaker 1: and I like for holder a lot, but describe some

603
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:41,040
Speaker 1: of the subtle changes and nuances that feel a little

604
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 1: different with the new with the new guy.

605
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,920
Speaker 9: Yeah, the mentality that he's brought in for our team

606
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:52,160
Speaker 9: now is he just wants just levens. You know, we

607
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:55,760
Speaker 9: watch clips after games and after trainings from the commitment

608
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 9: of our team, whether it's you know, someone has a

609
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 9: bad play and that's the reaction of how we to

610
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,480
Speaker 9: that situation. Eleven players sprinting back to defend our goal,

611
00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,560
Speaker 9: eleven prayer players sprinting forward to try and create chances

612
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:10,000
Speaker 9: to score. Just becoming that exciting team again with that

613
00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:11,840
Speaker 9: US grit that that we've had.

614
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 10: Over the years.

615
00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:14,600
Speaker 9: So while maintaining that, how can we add a little

616
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,400
Speaker 9: bit of quality in certain situations And obviously he's helping

617
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 9: us develop that.

618
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:23,400
Speaker 1: Playing the World Cup on US soil. Do you view

619
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:30,120
Speaker 1: it as a significant advantage, Tyler, Yeah.

620
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,640
Speaker 9: It's an advantage and disadvantage, I think, because you know,

621
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 9: for a lot of players, if it's their first opportunity,

622
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:36,720
Speaker 9: it will be a lot of pressure. It will be

623
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 9: more pressure than playing a World Cup abroad. The expectations

624
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 9: maybe aren't as high. I think for us, as as

625
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:45,880
Speaker 9: catalysts in the sport and as role models for the

626
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 9: newer generation, we want to make sure we leave our

627
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 9: mark in this tournament. So going out there representing our

628
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 9: country in the right way, winning games because that's what

629
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:56,440
Speaker 9: people want to come and see, is the most important thing. So,

630
00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:58,960
Speaker 9: you know, for myself, I think the burden weighs a

631
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:00,680
Speaker 9: little bit heavier, but think that's exciting.

632
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:01,960
Speaker 10: I think pressure is a privilege.

633
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 1: What is the best part about playing with Christian Poolistic?

634
00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:08,400
Speaker 1: What does he do that you I mean, even if

635
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:11,800
Speaker 1: you look at Leeds in your European experience, what does

636
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 1: Christian provide that even excellent European players, the best players

637
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:20,080
Speaker 1: even on the national team. So so I think twenty seventeen,

638
00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:24,640
Speaker 1: what does Christian provide that even other good players don't.

639
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,360
Speaker 9: Yeah, listen, Chris is one of my best friends. Though

640
00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:31,200
Speaker 9: it's easy for me to say, you you know, we

641
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 9: grew up together from a young age. We went to

642
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 9: residency get together, and you know, for me, he was

643
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,680
Speaker 9: a role model from a young age because watching him play,

644
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 9: there was always something special that he had that no

645
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,560
Speaker 9: other player on the field has. For me, I'm pretty

646
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 9: good in offensive situations and reading player defenders, but there

647
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:52,200
Speaker 9: was something on him that it just made it look

648
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:55,960
Speaker 9: so easy dribbling by players just it was just always gliding.

649
00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 9: So yeah, he's a special player. He's a creative player,

650
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 9: and he just always show up in big moments. He

651
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 9: leads by example, that's for sure. So yeah, he's a

652
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 9: special player and we're lucky to have him.

653
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 1: Finally, Matt Freeze in goal during the penalty kicks. All

654
00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:14,520
Speaker 1: your years playing soccer, have you ever seen a goalie

655
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:18,120
Speaker 1: stop three get his hands on two others? What were

656
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:19,640
Speaker 1: you thinking watching Matt?

657
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:23,680
Speaker 9: Well, I mean I practiced pks on him and training,

658
00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 9: so I was pretty confident in our chances going.

659
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 10: Into that situation.

660
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:30,440
Speaker 9: He said, he used to write papers out of saving

661
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 9: the k If you're not, you're probably going to set

662
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 9: yourself up forcess.

663
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 3: Yeah.

664
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,760

Speaker 10: Thank you.

667
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:44,440
Speaker 1: You bet Tyler Adams who has been on that team

668
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 1: captain of the last World Cup since twenty seventeen. He's

669
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,800

671
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:56,480
Speaker 1: he's got a ton of international experience. And I just

672
