1 00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:15,840 Speaker 1: Wow. Wow. Wow. I don't know what's gonna change by 2 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 1: the time the show's over. I just know a lot's 3 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:19,360 Speaker 1: gonna change by the time the show's over. It's not 4 00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:22,400 Speaker 1: in our control. The portal is closing. It's like a 5 00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,320 Speaker 1: garage door. That's about the slams shot and here we go. 6 00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 1: It's like fifteen people trying to get out of the 7 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,920 Speaker 1: boiler room before the Titanic sinks. Spoiler alert if you 8 00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:33,240 Speaker 1: haven't seen the movie. The ship does sink, a bunch 9 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,480 Speaker 1: of folks hitting the door right at the last minute. 10 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:37,559 Speaker 1: Don't you love that? As a coach? This is late 11 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:39,599 Speaker 1: kick Life. We are jampacked. We are high a top 12 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 1: a splendid downtown Nashville, Tennessee, on this Sunday night, April thirtieth, 13 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 1: the Year of Our Lord, twenty twenty three. Yes, friends, 14 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 1: the portal is closing. Now. You don't have to have 15 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 1: gone anywhere else by the time the sun goes down, 16 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 1: but you better have your name in there by the 17 00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: time the sun goes down, or else You're gonna wait 18 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 1: a little while, or you could just quit and not 19 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 1: play anymore. There's some other stuff I've going on the 20 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 1: Star Ranking season. No, it's not. Star ranking season isn't. No, no, 21 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,119 Speaker 1: it's not, but it is for me. See star ranking 22 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 1: season for a lot of folks out there, especially the 23 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: haters amongst us, is when it's the middle of summer 24 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,120 Speaker 1: or the middle of fall and a kid commits somewhere 25 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,600 Speaker 1: and you say, five star, probably overrated. I probably just 26 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 1: got a bump because of intercompany bias towards certain teams. 27 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:28,960 Speaker 1: You know that old chestnut. Well, here's the thing about that. Ultimately, 28 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 1: the NFL Draft does roll around. And ultimately, if the 29 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: five folks here at twenty four to seven Sports claim 30 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:37,960 Speaker 1: that they're modeling their top thirty two players after what 31 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 1: they think the NFL draft's going to be, well it 32 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 1: stands to reason we should look at the NFL draft, 33 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 1: shouldn't we? We will tonight. How accurate is the recruiting industry? 34 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 1: We will talk about that. I have also got some 35 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 1: very sneaky things that are being said. I've got some 36 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 1: schedules that have come out. So the college football Playoff 37 00:01:56,200 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: is expanding, much to my chagrin, and that's coming next year. 38 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 1: That you know, you may not know that some of 39 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 1: the early formatting has come out because it's been buried 40 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 1: underneath the NFL Draft and some other news going on. 41 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 1: But there are also some obscure quotes that I want 42 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 1: to bring you away tonight, just remind you what we're 43 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: getting into. Not in terms of expansion, that's already decided, 44 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:22,680 Speaker 1: but in terms of format, not how many get in, 45 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: but who are whom? Star are those teams that get in? 46 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: All that, Plus we got the Oregon mood Tracker there. 47 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:31,959 Speaker 1: If you're listening on podcasts, this this is a cow bell, 48 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: as you can hear. It's got my silhouette on it. 49 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 1: And there is a very very interesting story behind this 50 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 1: that I will share later in the show. It's not 51 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: exactly the sort of thing you lead the show with 52 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:44,960 Speaker 1: because it would just confuse most newbies and make them 53 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 1: run away. They're watching us in Boyton Beach, Florida. Canon 54 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 1: Air Force Base out in New Mexico. They're tuned in Modesto, California. 55 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: And look, Chuck. I rarely give out the shoutouts by names, 56 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: but Chuck is watching us in Waynesburg, PA. Chuck fell 57 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 1: off his roof last week, so that put him on 58 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: the shelf. Then Chuck got food poisoning later in the week, 59 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 1: so Chuck has nothing else to do tonight, quite literally, 60 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 1: other than watch us and try to keep solid food down. 61 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: And that is a joke to keep you from crying, Chuck. 62 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: We appreciate you being tuned in. I would probably say 63 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 1: I know how you feel, but I have no clue 64 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: how you feel, so I can just sort of I 65 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 1: can root for you from a few states away, and 66 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 1: thank you for being tuned in. I have if this 67 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,839 Speaker 1: is a record, I think we have two post its 68 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: on this sheet of paper in front of me. So 69 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 1: there's a lot to cover and there's a ton to 70 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 1: get to tonight. We're jampacks, so thank you for being 71 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: with us. Okay, star rankings don't matter. How many times 72 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 1: have you heard that recruiting rankings are overrated? How many 73 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 1: times have we heard that? Now? Sometimes you will get 74 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 1: anecdotal evidence or an example of a kid who was 75 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 1: rated five stars and he goes bust for many different reasons. 76 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 1: And then you got someone who waves their flag around 77 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 1: and says, told you, told you, those recruiting rankings don't matter. Well, 78 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 1: what the recruiting rankings are not isn'tn inexact science, but 79 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: what they are is deadly accurate, more so than they 80 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: have been in the history of this industry. But you 81 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 1: don't have to take my word for it. I wouldn't 82 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: take my word for it. I would force me to 83 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,279 Speaker 1: back it up. So here, walk someone into the room. 84 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 1: I dare you to back that up. Josh, thank you someone. 85 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: We just had the NFL Draft, and you know, at 86 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: twenty four to seven sports there are thirty two five 87 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,239 Speaker 1: stars in every class, and that is pretty much modeled 88 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 1: by predicting four years down the road, three, four or 89 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 1: five years down the road, who you think the top 90 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,280 Speaker 1: thirty two in the NFL draft would be. Of course, 91 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 1: it's impossible to nail that, but that is the working 92 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: theory behind who you make a five star. You want 93 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: to know how the industry did this year, kids, because 94 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 1: this is not the time of year where you ever 95 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: hear people talking about recruiting rankings. Isn't no, no, no, 96 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 1: This is not the time of year where anyone's ever 97 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: shouting from the mountaintops. Oh stars don't matter. Oh you 98 00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,599 Speaker 1: can get to the NFL no matter what you're rated. 99 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: That's technically true, but that's not in a vacuum. What 100 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 1: we want to know is how accurate is the recruiting 101 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: industry In other words, if they give you five stars, 102 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,040 Speaker 1: how much more likely are you to maybe be a 103 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 1: high round draft pick or be drafted period than if 104 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 1: you're a four star or a three star or a 105 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:19,159 Speaker 1: two star or unranked. Well, we have numbers. We don't 106 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: have to worry about it. We have numbers. So thirteen 107 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: five stars, thirteen former twenty four seven sports five stars, 108 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 1: just win in the first round. I mentioned that because 109 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: that is the most ever. Twenty four seven Sports has 110 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,919 Speaker 1: never had a better NFL draft as it relates to 111 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: formerly ranked five star players then they just had. Now, 112 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 1: I'm not on the recruitings rankings council. I'm not on 113 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 1: the committee. I just kind of sit over here and 114 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 1: watch and so golf clap for you guys. Barton Simmons 115 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 1: is probably over watching the show in a darkened office 116 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 1: at Vanderbilt. He was part of that. Charles Power was 117 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 1: a big part of that. He's overdone three now. So 118 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,039 Speaker 1: a lot of folks who are here were a part 119 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: of it. A lot of folks who aren't here anymore 120 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 1: or are not here anymore, we're a part of that. 121 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 1: But I'm not I'm not strictly even speaking about twenty 122 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: four to seven. I want to zoom it out for 123 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: a second. Just look at the industry. I am very 124 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 1: very partial and very biased towards our guys here because 125 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 1: I get to see how the sausage is made and 126 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,159 Speaker 1: I know they do a great job. And I also 127 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: know the actual process, which I won't bore you with tonight, 128 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: but it is very laborious, and you guys know how 129 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: rarely I use that term, but here it's what I 130 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 1: wanted you to focus on. So my contention is the 131 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: recruiting industry star rankings have never been more accurate. So actually, 132 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,719 Speaker 1: the guys that on three put up a stat earlier today, 133 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: and these are shocking numbers. Let's just look industry wid 134 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,359 Speaker 1: If you were a five star player in this last draft, 135 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 1: you stood an eighty one point three percent chance of 136 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: being drafted. As it turns out, if you were a 137 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 1: former four star player, you stood a twenty two point 138 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 1: six percent chance of being drafted. So let's just hit 139 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 1: pause button right there. Oh, five star, four star, it 140 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Oh, that's all just subjective. They're not really 141 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 1: judging it on criteria about critical traits. They're just playing 142 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 1: favorites with various programs. No, it turns out their right. 143 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: It turns out there is a little more science behind 144 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: that than a lot of folks will lead you to believe. Again, 145 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 1: former five star player eighty one point three percent chance 146 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: of being drafted. Former four star player twenty two point 147 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 1: six percent chance of being drafted. Also, if you're a 148 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 1: former five star player as of this last draft, you 149 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 1: were twenty one times more likely to be drafted than 150 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: a two star or lower twenty one times. I want 151 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 1: to read that aloud one more time. Former five star 152 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: rated players twenty one times more likely to be drafted 153 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 1: than a former two star or an unranked player. So, 154 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 1: anytime someone walks up to you and says recruiting rankings 155 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 1: don't matter, don't hate them seriously as a person, at 156 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 1: least as a college football fan. Now, if they tell 157 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 1: you they're not the end all be all, if they 158 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: tell you it's not a death sentence. If someone puts 159 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: two stars on you that's accurate, you ultimately have a 160 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: lot to say about that. But to think that there's 161 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 1: not sort of a solid work that's gone into formulating 162 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 1: that star ranking, No, the NFL draft just craps on 163 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 1: that every single year and continues to do it more 164 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: and more. There's another thing that I want to talk 165 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 1: to you about, and that is something that I just 166 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 1: hinted around, and that is inherent bias in the rankings 167 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 1: process due to things like which program you commit to. 168 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 1: The Bama bump has always been a really, really popular 169 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: term in the recruiting industry. And again I bring it 170 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 1: up in April because no one else talks about the 171 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: Bama bump in April. Everyone talks about the Bama bump 172 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 1: around signing Day. Everyone talks about the Bama bump in 173 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 1: December because they get really mad because Nick Saban signs 174 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: a lot of highly rated players and there's this allegation 175 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 1: that they're highly rated cause Nick Saban signing him, and 176 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,959 Speaker 1: the recruiting industry always wants to scratch Alabama's back. Will 177 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 1: Anderson Class of twenty twenty. I will never forget it 178 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: because we talked about it on the show as it 179 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: was happening. He kept vaulting every single rankings update. He 180 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 1: kept jumping several dozen spots, and eventually Will anderson Alabama 181 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 1: commitment lands inside the top ten players in the country. 182 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 1: Guess what was said about Will Anderson Bama bump. Guess 183 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 1: what was said about Will Anderson. Well, that's just Bama bias. Yeah, 184 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 1: he's a good player, but come on top ten. You 185 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 1: know what I didn't hear the other day. I didn't 186 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 1: hear a single person talking about the Will Anderson Bama bump. 187 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 1: As Will Anderson went off the board at number three overall, 188 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: As Will Anderson became the number one defensive player overall 189 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 1: taken three years later, I didn't hear a word. These 190 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 1: people turned into ghosts. I could even zoom it out 191 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: and look at the entire SEC. Because as much as 192 00:09:57,080 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: we hear about Bama bias and the Bama bump, I 193 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 1: hear it about the SEC all the time. Whenever we 194 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: talk about the conference on the show, whenever you see 195 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 1: them covered nationally, there's always the allegation of SEC bias. 196 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: And really all that means is the allegation is people 197 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 1: are making a bigger deal of the SEC than the 198 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 1: SEC naturally deserves to have made about it. And I've 199 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 1: always laughed at it because I've always asked people if 200 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,559 Speaker 1: you believe that, you believe the NFL's in on it too, 201 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:30,599 Speaker 1: and they said, what are you talking about? No, it 202 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 1: just has nothing to do with the NFL. Oh, it does. 203 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 1: It does, because for the seventeenth year in a row, 204 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: the SEC just led all of America in terms of 205 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 1: overall draft picks by conference. Wasn't too far ahead of 206 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 1: the Big Ten this year. I'm going to talk about 207 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,680 Speaker 1: the Big Ten in a second, so that you guys 208 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 1: up in Chicago and Indianapolis hang tight. Hey, it's a 209 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 1: really good point you want me to make, and I'm 210 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 1: going to make it for you. Hang tight. But the 211 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 1: old SEC bias crowd they're ghosts this time of year too. 212 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: That's why I choose to do this segment every Sunday 213 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,440 Speaker 1: after the draft, because I want to remind you when 214 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 1: you think about banging this drum later in the fall, 215 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,720 Speaker 1: please remember you're gonna have to account for those words 216 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 1: at least on this show come April. Seventeenth straight season. Now, 217 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: the SEC just had the most draft picks of any conference, 218 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 1: eight of the top sixteen first round eight of the 219 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 1: top sixteen from the SEC. Here's a little paper popping 220 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: stat producer Jesse brought my way today. Since twenty seventeen, 221 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 1: SEC has seventy nine first rounders. That's thirty five more 222 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 1: than any other conference. And I said, Jesse that's good. 223 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 1: Give me something great. And so he went to digging. 224 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,720 Speaker 1: You know what he found and this is a post 225 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 1: it pop because this wouldn't even fit on the sheet 226 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:43,439 Speaker 1: of paper. I don't need the whole SEC. Just give 227 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 1: me Georgia, Bama, LSU, and Florida. They had more draft 228 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:51,440 Speaker 1: picks than the entire Big twelve. They had more draft 229 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 1: picks than the entire Pack twelve. And Georgia, Bama, LSU, 230 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:59,079 Speaker 1: and Florida had as many draft picks as the ACC. 231 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:03,200 Speaker 1: I've got a little mini conference, even within that power 232 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 1: conference of the SEC, where just four of them, at 233 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 1: just a little small box of the teams in the SEC, 234 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 1: they're out doing several Power five conferences. It gets even worse, 235 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 1: depending on your perspective. I would call this worse if 236 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 1: I were just a non SEC college football fan. Remove 237 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 1: Georgia from the SEC, take Bama out, get rid of LSU, 238 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 1: get rid of Florida, just take what's left that remainder 239 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 1: of the SEC still had more draft picks than the 240 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 1: Pac twelve and had as many draft picks as the 241 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: Big twelve, which would make a newcomer to the college 242 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:41,200 Speaker 1: football party ask, well, why do you guys call it 243 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 1: power five. It sounds to me like there's the SEC, 244 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 1: and then there's the Big Ten. I'm about to talk 245 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 1: about them, and then there's well who else everyone else? Right, 246 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 1: not a bad point, newcomer. Power five is something that 247 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 1: we've just said for a long time. But more and 248 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 1: more and more is you extrap alay the data. You've 249 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 1: got a power too in college football, and the Big 250 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 1: Ten had the same number of first round draft picks 251 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: this past draft then as the SEC did. They had 252 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 1: twenty in rounds one and two, and that is a record. 253 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:17,560 Speaker 1: That is the most ever first and second round combined 254 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:23,199 Speaker 1: draft picks for the Big ten, SCC Big Ten. Then 255 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 1: you got a Cliff and then you got the rest 256 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 1: of the country. That does not mean, please don't misunderstand me. 257 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 1: That does not mean on any given Saturday, you couldn't 258 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 1: have Texas go beat Michigan. They'll play next year. That's 259 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 1: why I mentioned those two teams. That doesn't mean you 260 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 1: couldn't have Texas come into Tuscaloose and beat Alabama this year. 261 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 1: Doesn't mean that. What it does mean in totality is 262 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:47,559 Speaker 1: something I'm going to talk about a lot later in 263 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: the show, especially when it comes to how we view 264 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:56,320 Speaker 1: this conference built structure we call college football, and especially 265 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 1: when we form out a postseason for this sport we 266 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 1: call college football. Yeah, last note I wanted to give 267 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:06,280 Speaker 1: you here just to illustrate the gap between the SEC 268 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,840 Speaker 1: Big Ten and the rest of the country total draft picks. 269 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:10,959 Speaker 1: Always love looking at this stat after we get through 270 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:14,319 Speaker 1: a draft, SEC led the way had sixty two combined 271 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: draft picks. The Big Ten was not far behind fifty five. 272 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:22,680 Speaker 1: So SEC sixty two, Big Ten fifty five. How close 273 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: do you think the next closest conference was. That would 274 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 1: be the ACC and that would be thirty two, then 275 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 1: the Big twelve at thirty, then the PAC twelve at 276 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 1: twenty seven. So if you want to insert and it's 277 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 1: not even close, this right here, this conversation would be 278 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,880 Speaker 1: where you insert and it's not even close. But yet, 279 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 1: people who tell you star rankings don't matter, NFL draft 280 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 1: disproves you every time people who tell you there's an 281 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 1: inherent bias in the ranking system, the NFL Draft always 282 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 1: serves to disprove that. Not just anecdotally, I used Will Anderson, 283 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 1: I could use one hundred other example. Far more times 284 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 1: than not, the NFL draft validates the recruiting industry rather 285 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: than the other way around. So while everyone else hates 286 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 1: on him, I'm going to do. I'm gonna full throated clap, 287 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 1: not even a golf clap, full throated clap. Way to go, guys, 288 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 1: think I just mixed up my papers. Okay, allergies are 289 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: still a big problem for me. So we've got a 290 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 1: loaded show. I don't even feel like we've started yet, 291 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 1: and we're fifteen minutes in. Appreciate you guys being tuned in. 292 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 1: Make sure you like the video and subscribe to the 293 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 1: channel if you haven't already, and if you have, I 294 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 1: certainly thank you. I've got so many different directions for 295 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 1: the show to go. Transfer a portal. The door is closing. 296 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 1: You've got a few more hours. If you're gonna get 297 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 1: in there, you better get in there. Casey Thompson got 298 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 1: in there. Casey Thompson, Texas quarterback, no Nebraska quarterback. Well 299 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 1: not anymore, Casey Thompson. To refreshify everyone's memory, he was 300 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: battling Jeff Simms in the spring. Simms himself had transferred 301 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 1: from Orgia Tech. And if this is making your head spind, 302 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 1: I haven't even gotten started yet. So I felt, and 303 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 1: many felt like Jeff Simms was gonna win the starting 304 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 1: job up there. Matt Ruhle, new head coach, brings in 305 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 1: a quarterback from the portal he inherited Casey Thompson. He 306 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 1: went and got Jeff Simms, and sure enough, it looks 307 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 1: like Jeff Simms is going to be the starter up there. 308 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 1: At least that's what Casey Thompson thought. Because Casey Thompson 309 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 1: has hopped into the portal, according to our folks over 310 00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:28,520 Speaker 1: at Auburn undercover dot com. As we speak, Casey Thompson 311 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 1: is on campus at Auburn, which should come as a 312 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 1: surprise to approximately no one because Hugh Freese, new head 313 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 1: coach at Auburn himself, has been just openly vocal over 314 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 1: the past week speaking publicly about how yeah, you know, 315 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 1: I'm I'm excited to work with the guys we have. 316 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 1: But but if there was an option out there, I 317 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 1: take it, allow me to translate help. That's what Hugh 318 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 1: free said. He could have just yelled help into a 319 00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 1: nearest microphone and that would that would have done better 320 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 1: than wasting all that time talking about how excited you are. 321 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 1: Casey Thompson may wind up at Auburn. We'll see again. 322 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 1: He's visiting there right now, and we're live as live 323 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 1: can be on Sunday night, so keep an eye on that. Okay, 324 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:17,439 Speaker 1: it's been a bad day in East Lansing, Michigan. I 325 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 1: have been on the phone with our people up there. Okay. 326 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:25,240 Speaker 1: So first I'm gonna give you the latest latest news, 327 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:26,720 Speaker 1: and then I'm gonna give you the news that broke 328 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 1: earlier in the day. So Charles Brantley is a corner there. 329 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:33,119 Speaker 1: Started eleven games for him last year, forty eight tackles, 330 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 1: six pass breakups. He's in the portal and we didn't 331 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 1: even plan on talking about him. That's the way these 332 00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 1: things go when the portal is closing on you. I've 333 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 1: got post its all over the desk right now and 334 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 1: they're all transfer portal related. What a mess. This show 335 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,640 Speaker 1: has not gone green yet tonight. We've got we've got 336 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:54,119 Speaker 1: posted in paper everywhere. So Charles Brandley's in the portal. Okay, 337 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 1: So that just happened, and I only have a ton 338 00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:59,879 Speaker 1: of intel as to where he may be headed. Everybody 339 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 1: automatically just assumes Colorado. I think he may be from 340 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 1: near where Dion's from. Let's just wait and see. Let's 341 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:09,200 Speaker 1: wait and see. I don't have guided intel on that. However, 342 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,119 Speaker 1: I do have guided intel, and our folks over at 343 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,200 Speaker 1: our Michigan State twenty four to seven site, they do 344 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 1: have guided intel on this whole Peyton Thorne keon Coleman situation. Now, 345 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 1: many of you are not Michigan State fans. You may 346 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: know these names. But what a web, What a web 347 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 1: that is in the process of being woven. I could 348 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 1: make a mini Netflix series just out of this situation. 349 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 1: Let me get you up to speed. This is gonna 350 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:38,480 Speaker 1: sound kind of like middle school hallway rumors, but that's 351 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:42,160 Speaker 1: the transfer portal circa twenty twenty three. So Peyton Thorn, 352 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:44,440 Speaker 1: he started there at quarterback for a couple of years, 353 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:48,359 Speaker 1: nearly sixty five hundred yards passing about forty nine touchdowns. 354 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,400 Speaker 1: There's no estimate, it's just forty nine. He's got forty 355 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 1: nine passing touchdowns. Had a ton of injuries last year, 356 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 1: but played through him. Okay, so not that great, serviceable, 357 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 1: but hasn't been that great. If he was sitting here 358 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:03,640 Speaker 1: right now, he'd say, I can be great if I'm 359 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 1: not hurt. That's that's okay, Okay, Well, hopefully in the future, 360 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 1: you'll be able to show me that. And he was 361 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 1: the quarterback for them in that magical season couple of 362 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,160 Speaker 1: years ago. So credit where it's due, six, two, two ten. 363 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 1: So think about this. Jaden Reed was a receiver for 364 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 1: Michigan State this past year. Jaden Reed just went in 365 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 1: the draft. He went in the second round. Rumor on 366 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 1: the street is that a lot of staffs out there 367 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,159 Speaker 1: had reached out to Keon Coleman, who is a stud 368 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 1: wide receiver for Michigan State, who also just hopped in 369 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 1: the portal a few hours ago, and a rumor on 370 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 1: the street is a lot of those staffs were saying, hey, 371 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 1: Jayden Reed, that kid, j'all had that just went in 372 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 1: the second round, he would have gone a lot higher 373 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 1: if he had a better quarterback to throw to him. 374 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 1: But he was stuck with Peyton Thorn, and Keon Coleman 375 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 1: got to think and saying, that's going to be me 376 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 1: a year from now unless I do something about it. 377 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:57,440 Speaker 1: So Keon Coleman hops in the portal. But see, here's 378 00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 1: the problem. Peyton Thorn caught win of the fact that 379 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 1: Keon Coleman may be headed to the portal, and Peyton 380 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 1: thorn Stars, thinking, wait a second, I already lost one 381 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,639 Speaker 1: of my top receivers. I'm gonna lose another top receiver. 382 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 1: Who cares if I'm healthy, I'm not gonna have anyone 383 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 1: to throw it to. I'm hopping in the portal. And 384 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:18,800 Speaker 1: then someone tells Keon Coleman, hey, the quarterback, you don't 385 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 1: want to be saddled with. He's in the portal. What 386 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,159 Speaker 1: are you gonna do now? And Keon Coleman thinks, well, 387 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,879 Speaker 1: wait a second, that's the dude I was trying to 388 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: get myself separated from. But now I already told mel Tucker. 389 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 1: I told the team I'm leaving. I'm going in the 390 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 1: portal anyway. And that's where things stand at seven to 391 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 1: twenty pm Central Standard Time on Sunday night, as the 392 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 1: transfer portal is closing. Now as you listen to all that, 393 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 1: remember this, there's a coaching staff up there that's having 394 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 1: to try and work around this. That's where we are 395 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 1: in the Year of Our Lord twenty twenty three. Wish 396 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:54,880 Speaker 1: I had a better update for you in his lancing, 397 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:58,119 Speaker 1: but I don't. Joshua was Simmons, we do have some 398 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 1: finality on this one. This is a big move for 399 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 1: Ohio State forest offensive tackle. We knew that Ohio State 400 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 1: was a very strong team coming out of spring, but 401 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 1: they had major needs at offensive tackle. They were gonna 402 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:12,360 Speaker 1: go get someone. They probably got the best tackle who 403 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:14,440 Speaker 1: has been in the portal. Six six three oh five 404 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 1: from San Diego State headed to Ohio State. He is 405 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 1: a guy. I think he has at least three years left. 406 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 1: There's kind of nebulous. Some people would say four because 407 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 1: he's got a COVID year. Ohio State folks will tell you, look, 408 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 1: if he's as good as we hope he is, we're 409 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 1: not gonna have to worry about three or four years anyway. 410 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 1: Taiwan Malone's also been on campus up there, so Simmons 411 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 1: has committed. So that's done. Put a rap on that. 412 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 1: Taiwan Malone's a defensive tackle from Ole Miss and I 413 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,440 Speaker 1: think he was in town this weekend. I think he's 414 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:44,919 Speaker 1: headed back to Oxford as we speak. Let's see what 415 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 1: happens there as well. So getting some help on the 416 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 1: lines of scrimmage at the very last minute, at least, 417 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 1: that's what Ryan Day is trying to do. Now. A 418 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: reminder you don't have to have your class secured by 419 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,679 Speaker 1: the end of today. But if you're entering the portal 420 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:01,919 Speaker 1: and you want to be eligible this year, you have 421 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:05,479 Speaker 1: to have done it by the end of today. That 422 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 1: entire segment did not have any Colorado in it. For 423 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,160 Speaker 1: those of you who are tired of me talking about Colorado, 424 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:16,400 Speaker 1: don't rejoice. There was so much Colorado I just had 425 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,639 Speaker 1: to create another segment for it later in the show. 426 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 1: So stick around, and for the hundreds of thousands of 427 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 1: you who do love that, also stick around. But I'm 428 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 1: not doing it right next because we have several other 429 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:33,680 Speaker 1: things to talk about, including our fine friends at Academy 430 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 1: Sports and Outdoors. Did you know that we were at 431 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:38,199 Speaker 1: Penn State a couple of weeks ago, Yes, most of 432 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 1: you do. We had James Franklin on the show. We 433 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 1: did the show live from his patio and it was 434 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:47,240 Speaker 1: seventy degrees and Sonny Jesse got mildly sunburned. It was great. 435 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:50,359 Speaker 1: It is going to snow up there this week about 436 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 1: two two and a half inches, and it's going to 437 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 1: be May. When it happens, it's gonna be May. As 438 00:22:56,440 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 1: justin Timberlake once famously said, my point there is it's 439 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:05,200 Speaker 1: a funny thing that happens in spring. My voice sounds 440 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,880 Speaker 1: weird because I'm clogged up with allergies. You can get 441 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 1: sunburnt and then build a snowman three weeks later. You 442 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 1: need a variety of outdoor gear, is my point, and 443 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,440 Speaker 1: Academy Sports and Outdoors is the place to do it now, 444 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 1: just southwest of State College down in Lafayette, Indiana. Not 445 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:22,800 Speaker 1: only am I talking to you, but you got the 446 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 1: added bonus of having a brand new Academy Sports and 447 00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,160 Speaker 1: Outdoors in your backyard. And I was talking to our 448 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 1: fine friends at Academy Sports and Outdoors this past week. 449 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 1: They got so many new stores opening this year September. 450 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 1: A loan is gonna be wild. So we'll get to 451 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,800 Speaker 1: that when we get to that. But in the meantime, 452 00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: if you don't have one in your backyard, that's okay 453 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,160 Speaker 1: because you've got internet. And if you don't have it, 454 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,159 Speaker 1: don't be like me, don't be cheap. Buy it. And 455 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:48,959 Speaker 1: then as soon as you got that internet hooked up, 456 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:52,120 Speaker 1: Academy dot com they got your hook up, and they've 457 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 1: got us hooked up, and they bring our show to 458 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 1: you free of charge, and we eternally appreciate them for 459 00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 1: that Okay, I don't sorry. I thought I saw something 460 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:06,920 Speaker 1: in the chat. I see what you said, Eric, Yes, 461 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:08,760 Speaker 1: in May, two and a half inches of snow is 462 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:10,639 Speaker 1: a lot. I thought you were going to throw an 463 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,119 Speaker 1: immunity on the end of it, and you didn't. And 464 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 1: I appreciate you for keeping it civil and keeping it 465 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 1: PG in the chat. Not all of us are that mature. 466 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: I can assure you. I've got to be very guarded 467 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:27,560 Speaker 1: about this next segment. I gotta be very measured in 468 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 1: my approach. I'm gonna take a sip from the chalice 469 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:35,600 Speaker 1: if you don't mind. Thank you. So I see our numbers. 470 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 1: A ton of you are new every week, so you 471 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 1: come here. You don't know that I was against playoff 472 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 1: expansion and I didn't get my way on it, and 473 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 1: I've closed a book on it, and I've moved forward, 474 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:50,720 Speaker 1: and I have vowed not to continuously re litigate that, 475 00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 1: and I'm not going to do it tonight either. So 476 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:55,400 Speaker 1: this is not a complaint segment. It is just a 477 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 1: wag the finger. Hey, make sure you're paying attention to 478 00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: this sort of segment, because there has been some news 479 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 1: this week, two bits of it that I want to 480 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:06,119 Speaker 1: point to your attention or point your attention too. And 481 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 1: it's kind of been buried by the NFL Draft, and 482 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 1: there's been a lot of stuff going on. Did you know, 483 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:15,400 Speaker 1: for example, that they released the college football Playoffs scheduling format, 484 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:18,160 Speaker 1: the expanded Playoff. This right here is the last year 485 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 1: that we're having a four team playoff. I'm just pausing 486 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 1: so you can cheer, Oh, who are these sick people? 487 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 1: I kid? And so then we're going to the expanded 488 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:31,399 Speaker 1: twelve team format. Now, as you look on the screen 489 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:33,239 Speaker 1: or if you're listening on podcasts, let me tell you 490 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:37,439 Speaker 1: here's what came out. The first round games will be 491 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:41,640 Speaker 1: played on campus, and it'll be Friday and Saturday, December 492 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 1: twentieth and twenty first, or as I would call it, 493 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:49,200 Speaker 1: December twentieth and the first day of meteorological winter. Then 494 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 1: the second round games, Nope, not on campus. They're going 495 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 1: to be at bowl sites on New Year's Day. Then 496 00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 1: the third round because yes, we're talking third, third and 497 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:03,639 Speaker 1: fourth rounds now in college football Playoff lore or college 498 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 1: college football have conversation. Those will be Thursday or Friday, 499 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 1: January ninth or tenth. That's when the title game normally 500 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:13,440 Speaker 1: would have been played, and then the championship game will 501 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 1: be played Saturday, January twentieth. So we started on the 502 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: twentieth and we ended on the twentieth. It's a solid 503 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 1: month of playoff. Oh, by the way, we're going to 504 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: mix in Christmas and New Year's and whatnot in there 505 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 1: as well. The date of the fourth game is TBD anyway, 506 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 1: so this obviously fluctuates year to year. This is just 507 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,399 Speaker 1: the first year and that's the way it's going to 508 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 1: work out. Okay, that's the schedule. That was just news 509 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,679 Speaker 1: that you may or may not have seen. But also 510 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 1: what I want to do tonight, just for a couple 511 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:51,239 Speaker 1: of minutes, is I want to remind you of something. Now. 512 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,880 Speaker 1: I want to remind you of the process that goes 513 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 1: into selecting the teams. And then I want to remind 514 00:26:56,640 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 1: you for those who remember how adamantly I was against expands, 515 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,680 Speaker 1: and remember there were two key reasons. One of them 516 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:05,920 Speaker 1: was just out of principle, and that was I don't 517 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,439 Speaker 1: think we need it. I would love to crystallize the 518 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 1: regular season, and I would love to maximize the importance 519 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 1: of every game. And I know the counter arguments of that. 520 00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:15,240 Speaker 1: We're not getting into that So that was one reason. 521 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 1: The other reason was I didn't like the devil in 522 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 1: the details when it came to what the selection process 523 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 1: was going to be. And for those of you who 524 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:28,600 Speaker 1: have forgotten, the selection process is they're taking six at 525 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 1: large teams, but they're also taking the six highest ranked 526 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 1: conference champions. Six, they're taking half a dozen of the 527 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 1: highest ranked conference champions. That virtually assures that every Power 528 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:47,120 Speaker 1: five conference champ is going to the playoff every year. Now, 529 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:48,919 Speaker 1: there are some folks out there who think that's a 530 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 1: good thing. I think auto bids are a joke in 531 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 1: any formatt in college football, now college basketball. I'm for 532 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 1: it all day. Totally different sport apples to bowling balls. 533 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 1: But I've been against this guy. I've talked about this 534 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 1: for a long time. Well, I want to ask you, 535 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,640 Speaker 1: do you see where this is headed? And I want 536 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 1: to remind you of something earlier in the show. We 537 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:13,280 Speaker 1: talked about the gulf when it comes to NFL draft 538 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 1: numbers between the SEC and the Big Ten and everyone else. 539 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:20,639 Speaker 1: We have seen in media rights deals the gulf that 540 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:24,159 Speaker 1: will continue to exist and expand between the SEC, the 541 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 1: Big Ten and everyone else. Realignment matters a lot too, guys, 542 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 1: you can't just think about how you define the future 543 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 1: of college football by what it's been, because the future 544 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 1: of college football is going to look a whole lot different. 545 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 1: And that's why I really question whether we should continue 546 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 1: to even use the Moniker Power five. Some folks have 547 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 1: already stopped using it. Power five indicates that there are 548 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 1: five conferences out there that are at least roughly similar. 549 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,160 Speaker 1: Certainly there's a hierarchy, but they're roughly similar. I don't 550 00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 1: think we're really headed towards a world where that exists anymore. 551 00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 1: And I want to pay close attention to the PAC 552 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 1: twelve for a second. USC's out there right now, U 553 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,440 Speaker 1: Seela's out there right now. They will not be out there. 554 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 1: They are about to go to the Big ten. And 555 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:16,239 Speaker 1: that brings me to an article by I think it 556 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 1: was Seth Davis, who writes for The Athletic, and he 557 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 1: was interviewing the San Diego State Athletic Director earlier this week, 558 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 1: and there was a quote from the San Diego State 559 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:32,960 Speaker 1: Athletic Director, John David Wicker. And it's on your screen 560 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 1: now if you're watching on YouTube. Quote one or the 561 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 1: other is going to happen. We're excited for the opportunity 562 00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 1: and we've done a lot of work to prepare for that. Now, 563 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 1: that's an out of context quote. You want me to 564 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 1: tell you what he's talking about. He's talking about San 565 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 1: Diego State either going to the PAC twelve or the 566 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 1: Big twelve, and it's most likely going to be the 567 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 1: PAC twelve. Do you see where I'm going with this? 568 00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,920 Speaker 1: Do you see where the Pac twelve is going with this? 569 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 1: And do you you see where the College Football Playoff Committee, 570 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 1: and when I say committee, I mean powers that be 571 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 1: have been going with this for a long time. The 572 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:14,560 Speaker 1: Pac twelve is losing major players like USC, they are 573 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 1: backfilling those spots. An already weak conference is backfilling the 574 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: departure of some of the very few power players that 575 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 1: were out there with G five also ran programs and 576 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 1: still being expected, are still expecting to be taken seriously 577 00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:33,680 Speaker 1: on the national stage. This is where the concept of 578 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 1: the six conference champ auto bid process becomes a joke. 579 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 1: To me, always has been a joke, but it's really 580 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 1: a joke now. The entire concept of auto bids for 581 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:49,320 Speaker 1: conference champs only makes sense in a sport where they're 582 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 1: at least somewhat within the same competitive realm. The PAC 583 00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 1: twelve is losing teams like USC and they're going to 584 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 1: backfill it with teams like San Diego State. And it's 585 00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,720 Speaker 1: already a week in conference. NFL draftna bear that out. 586 00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 1: College foot wall playoff numbers bear that out. Media rights 587 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 1: deal numbers bear that out. A week in conference is 588 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,480 Speaker 1: only going to get weaker in the coming years. And 589 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:10,880 Speaker 1: that's without even knowing what Washington or Oregon are going 590 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 1: to do. That's without even knowing what those four corners 591 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 1: schools are going to do. That's without even knowing what 592 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 1: the media rights deal is going to be. And you're 593 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:19,520 Speaker 1: gonna tell me, well, yeah, but they should still get 594 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 1: a guaranteed spot in the playoff. Anyone of sound mind 595 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 1: knows how misdirected this is, because anyone of sound mind 596 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 1: who watches this sport knows any conference champ worth their 597 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 1: salt is already ranked in the top twelve. So anybody 598 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:38,239 Speaker 1: who's actually worth being in the playoff is already going 599 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 1: to be ranked high enough to be in the playoff. 600 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: They didn't go for that. They wouldn't sign off on that. 601 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: They would only sign off on the deal if there 602 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:49,080 Speaker 1: was a carve out sounds a lot like Washington, doesn't 603 00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 1: it not? The Huskies, the one on the other coast, 604 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,239 Speaker 1: sounds a lot like politics in a sense that they 605 00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 1: had to get a special carve out for something that 606 00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 1: they otherwise were not going to earn in merit. That's 607 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 1: where the college football playoffs headed. It's going to be 608 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 1: a tournament of inclusion for the sake of inclusion. This 609 00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 1: is always the direction it was going. It's not a 610 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 1: tournament for excellence. It's not a tournament based solely on merit. 611 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 1: And there are still going to be some who yell 612 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 1: at me, well, yeah, but what better way to decide 613 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 1: who should be in than taking teams that win their conference. 614 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 1: How can you have a legitimate playoff if you don't 615 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:29,160 Speaker 1: include conference champs. My counter to that is, how can 616 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 1: you look at all conference champs as being legitimately equal 617 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:35,200 Speaker 1: or close to equal? How can you look at a 618 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:38,840 Speaker 1: conference like the SEC or the Big Ten and in 619 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 1: the future look at a conference that's losing USC's and 620 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 1: replacing them with San Diego States and say, huh, the 621 00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:47,240 Speaker 1: team that comes from over there and the team that 622 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 1: comes from down here or up here, Yeah, they're roughly 623 00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 1: similar to me. No they're not. No, they're not. But 624 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 1: this is the format that they snuck in on you, 625 00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:56,520 Speaker 1: or maybe they didn't sneak it in on you. Maybe 626 00:32:56,520 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 1: some of you support this. I think it's trash, always 627 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 1: thought it was trash. You always would have gotten pushedback 628 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 1: from me on expanding the playoff because of principle. But 629 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 1: if you would have given me an expanded playoff with 630 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:12,320 Speaker 1: just the top twelve, regardless, at least I would have said, well, 631 00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 1: that's a fair way to format it. Because conference champions 632 00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:19,960 Speaker 1: they're if they're worth anything, they're going to be ranked 633 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 1: in the top twelve. Because the rankings process itself would 634 00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 1: still have valued conference champions. I want you to remember 635 00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:30,440 Speaker 1: this now when they come out with that final ranking 636 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,280 Speaker 1: right before they do the selection process, the one that 637 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:35,960 Speaker 1: comes out after the conference championship games have been played. 638 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 1: Their own criteria. The committee's own criteria stipulates that they 639 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 1: give preference to conference champs. So you would have you 640 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: would have not only had your regular season records merit 641 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,240 Speaker 1: to go on, but if you won that conference title game, 642 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 1: you would have been vaulted even higher than that additional win. 643 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 1: Otherwise normally would have vaulted you, and we're going to 644 00:33:57,640 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 1: live in a world where even if that didn't get 645 00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:02,600 Speaker 1: you high enough, you're still going to get in anyway. 646 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 1: Why cause you're a conference champ, one of six highest 647 00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 1: ranked conference champs. Uh. Pathetic, predictably pathetic. But that's where 648 00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:14,040 Speaker 1: we're heading, and that's what's best for the sport. I'm 649 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 1: told they're watching us in Booneville, Mississippi, Denver, Colorado, Macclesville, 650 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:22,920 Speaker 1: North Carolina. They're all tuned in. I have a story 651 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:26,280 Speaker 1: for you, right quick. Have a cough and a story 652 00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:30,120 Speaker 1: for you right quick. This is a cow bell with 653 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 1: my silhouette on it. I did not have this when 654 00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:34,960 Speaker 1: I woke up yesterday, but I've got it now. Let 655 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 1: me tell you how I acquired this cow bell with 656 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:40,319 Speaker 1: my silhouette on it. This is going to sound made up. 657 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:43,000 Speaker 1: None of this is made up. There I stand on 658 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:45,800 Speaker 1: the street last night around seven seven to fifteen PM. 659 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 1: No one knows where I am. I have not publicized 660 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,879 Speaker 1: my whereabouts at any point during the day. I'm going 661 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:54,840 Speaker 1: to meet my uber driver. They and they alone know 662 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 1: where I am. At that point in time, a dude 663 00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:01,080 Speaker 1: pulls up in a jeep. I'm not looking for a 664 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:03,040 Speaker 1: dude in a jeep. That's not my Uber driver. Here 665 00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 1: you go, Colin, Oh, there we go. My Uber driver's 666 00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:10,360 Speaker 1: not in a jeep. Jeep parks, jeep, puts on his flashers. 667 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:13,160 Speaker 1: A guy gets out of the jeep starts walking towards 668 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:18,040 Speaker 1: me with this cow bell in his hand. I say hey, 669 00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:20,719 Speaker 1: he says, Josh Payin. I said, yeah, that's me. You 670 00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:22,440 Speaker 1: don't have my food. It doesn't look like no, No, 671 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 1: I don't have your food. I've got this. I've been 672 00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:26,640 Speaker 1: dying to give it to you. I've just been driving 673 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 1: around with it in my jeep. Now I want you 674 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:31,840 Speaker 1: to think about the situation again. This is not the 675 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:34,880 Speaker 1: Uber driver. This is not anyone I know, friend of 676 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 1: the program. As it turns out, but it's not anyone 677 00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:39,279 Speaker 1: I know. It's not anyone I've ever spoken to. It 678 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 1: would be one thing if he handed me a blank cowbell, okay, 679 00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:44,880 Speaker 1: because he could have had a million of these in 680 00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 1: his car and he just hands them out to anyone. 681 00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:49,520 Speaker 1: And oh, there's that guy whose show I watch. Let 682 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 1: me give him a blank cowbell. No, friends, the cow 683 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,799 Speaker 1: bell has my face on it, and I know good 684 00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 1: and well he did not have the technology in that 685 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:02,239 Speaker 1: jeep to create this on the fly. So abduction is 686 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:06,240 Speaker 1: where my mind immediately goes. But thankfully I survived the encounter. 687 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:08,439 Speaker 1: And not only did I survive the encounter, it turned 688 00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 1: out very friendly and now via direct message, I have 689 00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:16,480 Speaker 1: exchanged contact information. We took a picture right there on 690 00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:19,600 Speaker 1: the street corner, and all's well. That ends well. But 691 00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,200 Speaker 1: I just want you to explain a few things to me. 692 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:24,920 Speaker 1: Number one, what are the odds? I looked up the 693 00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 1: population of Nashville today. It's a little over one point 694 00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:32,680 Speaker 1: three million people. And I'm the one who just happened 695 00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:36,319 Speaker 1: to be right place, right time. I have suspicions. Number two, 696 00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:40,840 Speaker 1: could the government be involved? And before you say no, 697 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:44,400 Speaker 1: think about all the ways you could say yes. And 698 00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:48,240 Speaker 1: number three, this had to have been made a little 699 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:51,120 Speaker 1: while ago, because as you see, the microphone in the 700 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 1: picture has the wind screen, and we took Colin. We've 701 00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:57,640 Speaker 1: had this microphone for a while because we took our 702 00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:01,600 Speaker 1: winnings from the NFL playoffs, which I want to help 703 00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:04,000 Speaker 1: the amount of money from, and we invested it back 704 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:07,520 Speaker 1: into the show. Why management sure wasn't going to do it, 705 00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:09,960 Speaker 1: and so we bought a microphone and we hadn't had 706 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:11,840 Speaker 1: the windscreen on the microphone in a while. So his 707 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 1: story checks out. His story fully checks out. I guess 708 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:19,600 Speaker 1: what I have to say is I appreciate it. And 709 00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:21,080 Speaker 1: the other thing that I want to tell you is 710 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:24,000 Speaker 1: you hear do you hear how loud that is? This 711 00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:28,640 Speaker 1: is one cow bell. I have been to Starkville, Mississippi. 712 00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:31,920 Speaker 1: I've seen two games actually in person at Mississippi State. 713 00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:35,680 Speaker 1: Imagine like sixty five thousand of those things. It's so loud. 714 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 1: It's the loudest stadium I've been to. But no one 715 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:42,759 Speaker 1: ever believes me because all they think about is the capacity. 716 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 1: What they don't think about is the capacity plus pretty 717 00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:49,959 Speaker 1: much everyone waiving one of those things violently in the air. 718 00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 1: But I got my own personalized cowbell. Now does Brandon 719 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:57,000 Speaker 1: Walker have one of those? I don't think so. I've 720 00:37:57,040 --> 00:37:59,480 Speaker 1: been in Mississippi more this year than Brandon Walker has 721 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:01,640 Speaker 1: to begin with those. So, like I said earlier today 722 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:04,240 Speaker 1: when he came at me, some people are questioning his roots, 723 00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:07,239 Speaker 1: but you can't question mine. So I appreciate the cow bell, 724 00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,080 Speaker 1: appreciate it, and had a little fun with the story. 725 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:12,240 Speaker 1: But yeah, just unbeknownst to me, someone was riding around 726 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:14,040 Speaker 1: with a cow bell with my face on it looking 727 00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:16,480 Speaker 1: for me this whole time. And that's about all I 728 00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:18,439 Speaker 1: want to know about it. Remember to like the video, 729 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 1: subscribe to the channel if you haven't already. That's not 730 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:22,719 Speaker 1: the end of the show. I just I wanted to 731 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:26,200 Speaker 1: weave that story into the show, and we got a nice, 732 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 1: healthy live audience watching. I appreciate it. You know, it's 733 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 1: interesting times in college football. Let's just say you had 734 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:38,200 Speaker 1: your own college football show, not a local one. Let's 735 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:41,760 Speaker 1: say it's a national show, and you claim to follow 736 00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:45,280 Speaker 1: what the audience wants. So you talk about Dion Sanders 737 00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 1: one day, video blows up. You think it's Dion. Then 738 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:53,040 Speaker 1: you talk about Colorado and Dion again. Video blows up again, 739 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:56,080 Speaker 1: and you look at the inner workings. We can see 740 00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:58,879 Speaker 1: pretty much everyone who watches our videos. It's people from 741 00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 1: all over the country. So people in the Pacific, Northwest, 742 00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:06,480 Speaker 1: every region of the country geographically, they are watching those 743 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:11,239 Speaker 1: Colorado and Dion videos. But then you know that there's 744 00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:14,239 Speaker 1: this other sizeable portion because they are very vocal of 745 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:17,719 Speaker 1: your audience, who says I don't care about dionni Colorado, 746 00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:21,040 Speaker 1: talk about teams that are relevant. How would you format 747 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:24,800 Speaker 1: your show? How would you stack your show? It's a struggle. 748 00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:26,560 Speaker 1: It's really a struggle. So here's what I'm going to 749 00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:29,319 Speaker 1: tell you. I've got a few things to say right 750 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:32,920 Speaker 1: quick about what's happening at Colorado caused the numbers that 751 00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:37,520 Speaker 1: were already unprecedented have become even more unprecedented. And if 752 00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:40,520 Speaker 1: you don't like it, just wait like three minutes and 753 00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:42,919 Speaker 1: we'll be done. Okay, Colin, here's your endpoint for you Tube. 754 00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,840 Speaker 1: The numbers at Colorado are incredible, and I know they 755 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,160 Speaker 1: were crazy last week, but they're even more crazy now. 756 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:52,720 Speaker 1: So here are the updated as of Sunday night portal numbers. 757 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:57,440 Speaker 1: As of now, it is like seven forty PM as 758 00:39:57,480 --> 00:40:02,160 Speaker 1: I'm talking to you. Colorado has lost fifty seven guys 759 00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:05,600 Speaker 1: to the portal. They have added or they have lost 760 00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:09,960 Speaker 1: thirty thirty since the spring game. I hesitate to even 761 00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:13,120 Speaker 1: say this definitively because the numbers keep changing. So Colorado's 762 00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:15,919 Speaker 1: lost fifty seven to the portal. They've lost thirty since 763 00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:22,480 Speaker 1: the spring game. They have thirteen scholarship players left from 764 00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:26,319 Speaker 1: their entire twenty two roster. I've got to say that 765 00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:29,160 Speaker 1: again because I don't think you understand how wild that is. 766 00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:32,799 Speaker 1: They had eighty three guys on scholarship on last year's team. 767 00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:40,440 Speaker 1: Thirteen of them are left. That's insane, that's just wild. 768 00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 1: Half of that would be wild. They've got thirteen guys left. 769 00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 1: Sometimes you turn on the spring game and you've had 770 00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:51,880 Speaker 1: an abnormal amount of departures to the draft or graduation, 771 00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:54,680 Speaker 1: and you say, boy, I don't recognize any of these guys. No, 772 00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:58,920 Speaker 1: there are Colorado season ticket holders who intimately follow their 773 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:01,520 Speaker 1: team who will be able to say, I really don't 774 00:41:01,520 --> 00:41:04,239 Speaker 1: recognize any of these guys. You don't. None of them 775 00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:09,279 Speaker 1: were there last year. Thirteen of them remain, So say 776 00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:12,680 Speaker 1: do Trey or just these are names popping left and right. 777 00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:15,160 Speaker 1: He's a tight end, a number thirty one overall player 778 00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:18,399 Speaker 1: in the portal. Okay, you may recognize that name because 779 00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:20,200 Speaker 1: I talked about him like a month ago, because he 780 00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:23,920 Speaker 1: was at Arkansas State, big time tight end prospect. He 781 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:25,880 Speaker 1: was one of six tight ends to catch fifty or 782 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,440 Speaker 1: more balls last year. And he goes in the portal 783 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 1: from Arkansas State and we say watch out for Colorado. 784 00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:35,600 Speaker 1: He goes to Colorado. It didn't last because he's back 785 00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:38,080 Speaker 1: in the portal now, and we don't know where he's 786 00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:40,600 Speaker 1: gonna land because this is all happening in real time, 787 00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:44,640 Speaker 1: So that's not great news. I would assume that wasn't 788 00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:47,640 Speaker 1: forced by Dion and company. I can never know for sure. 789 00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:50,400 Speaker 1: We got two wide receivers to talk about there. You 790 00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:53,319 Speaker 1: see Treyor's numbers there, a first team All Sun Belt 791 00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:54,840 Speaker 1: by the way, when he was at Arkansas State. So 792 00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:57,279 Speaker 1: he's a good player. Six four two ten, So let's 793 00:41:57,360 --> 00:41:59,560 Speaker 1: keep an eye on him. Okay. I know it feels 794 00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:01,759 Speaker 1: like it's moving fast, because it is. We got two 795 00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:05,560 Speaker 1: wide receivers to talk about, right quick. Jordan Tyson, he 796 00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:09,560 Speaker 1: led that team last year in receiving yards and touchdowns. 797 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:14,319 Speaker 1: Montana Limonious Craig, he's also four star wide receiver in 798 00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 1: the portal now. Three catches one hundred and fifty four 799 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:20,840 Speaker 1: yards two touchdowns in the spring game. So you if 800 00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:23,799 Speaker 1: you watch their spring game, you noticed him. Looks like 801 00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 1: he's got a ton of offers already. We have heard 802 00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:29,760 Speaker 1: Penn State, we've heard Auburn, We've heard Perdue. So another 803 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 1: two pretty high profile receivers there. Those are three pass catchers. 804 00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:35,960 Speaker 1: Just in the last two minutes, I've told you about. 805 00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 1: But it's not all bad news now obviously when it 806 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:41,239 Speaker 1: comes to turn when you have guys going out, you 807 00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:43,879 Speaker 1: got more guys coming in. By our count, we think 808 00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:47,040 Speaker 1: they're going to add like fifteen or twenty more players 809 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:49,040 Speaker 1: or they've got room to do that. But a couple 810 00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:53,360 Speaker 1: that they've added recently, de Moy Kennedy, linebacker from Alabama. 811 00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:56,120 Speaker 1: Really good player, just a victim of depth there, but 812 00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:59,960 Speaker 1: really good player. Has played for Charles Kelly, and that's 813 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:03,640 Speaker 1: notable because Kelly is the defensive coordinator now for d Also, 814 00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:07,399 Speaker 1: uh Jock Wes Robinson was a Bama corner and he 815 00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:10,359 Speaker 1: also familiar with Charles Kelly. He was a four star 816 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:13,040 Speaker 1: guy from that twenty nineteen class six two about one 817 00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:16,279 Speaker 1: to ninety. Both of those guys have transferred now to Colorado, 818 00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 1: So that's official, that's done, and they're not gonna be 819 00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:20,839 Speaker 1: able to transfer out of there because the windows about 820 00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:24,920 Speaker 1: to close.

Seventh woof not For, 1034 00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:15,799 Speaker 1: oregon it's quack for, them woolf for everyone. Else so 1035 00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:18,560 Speaker 1: what is the mood of The oregon fan? Base we 1036 00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:20,480 Speaker 1: do the Mood tracker on the show a. Lot that's 1037 00:55:20,520 --> 00:55:24,279 Speaker 1: just taking the temperature of the fan, base AND i 1038 00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:27,480 Speaker 1: had to think long and hard immunity about the mood 1039 00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:30,640 Speaker 1: for The oregon fan. Base jesse had some good ideas for, 1040 00:55:30,719 --> 00:55:36,120 Speaker 1: names BUT i settled on surging in silence BECAUSE i 1041 00:55:36,120 --> 00:55:37,759 Speaker 1: don't think a lot of people are picking up What 1042 00:55:37,760 --> 00:55:40,080 Speaker 1: oregon's putting down right, now and there's a reason for. 1043 00:55:40,120 --> 00:55:44,080 Speaker 1: THAT usc has taken a lot of the oxygen out 1044 00:55:44,080 --> 00:55:46,799 Speaker 1: of the room in THE pac. Twelve that's not a. 1045 00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:49,960 Speaker 1: Problem it wasn't a problem For utah last. Year it's 1046 00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:52,400 Speaker 1: not a problem For oregon right. NOW i don't think. 1047 00:55:52,560 --> 00:55:56,000 Speaker 1: So recruiting's just. HUMMING i don't think anything more needs 1048 00:55:56,040 --> 00:55:59,560 Speaker 1: to be spoken about. That defense has been a primary 1049 00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:02,960 Speaker 1: focus since the day that coaching staff took, over and, 1050 00:56:03,200 --> 00:56:07,880 Speaker 1: DEFENSE i think from a personnel, standpoint has been massively 1051 00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:10,880 Speaker 1: upgraded At. Oregon but they also kept Bo nicks at, 1052 00:56:10,920 --> 00:56:15,359 Speaker 1: quarterback which doesn't count in recruiting. Rankings but you talk 1053 00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:18,080 Speaker 1: to their, people WHICH i, have and they'll tell you 1054 00:56:18,280 --> 00:56:21,040 Speaker 1: that's as big a recruit as we could have possibly. 1055 00:56:21,080 --> 00:56:24,840 Speaker 1: Signed keeping Bo nicks convincing him to come back for 1056 00:56:24,920 --> 00:56:28,440 Speaker 1: one more year. Huge as you, know we went up 1057 00:56:28,480 --> 00:56:31,640 Speaker 1: there for THE ucla game last year And Dan landing 1058 00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:34,440 Speaker 1: and his staff are always very accommodating and got a 1059 00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:39,600 Speaker 1: good feel for the vibe around the. Program they got 1060 00:56:39,680 --> 00:56:41,919 Speaker 1: it better than about ninety eight percent of the other 1061 00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:44,879 Speaker 1: places THAT i. Go AND i don't always like doing 1062 00:56:44,880 --> 00:56:47,239 Speaker 1: the comparative, thing you, know but they've got a, really 1063 00:56:47,320 --> 00:56:49,759 Speaker 1: really good vibe up. There and it's not just it's 1064 00:56:49,800 --> 00:56:52,200 Speaker 1: not just the people in the building that feel, it 1065 00:56:52,560 --> 00:56:55,000 Speaker 1: because that's not the. Goal the goal is to make 1066 00:56:55,120 --> 00:56:59,480 Speaker 1: outsiders feel, it and namely prospective student. Athletes those are 1067 00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:01,959 Speaker 1: the ones who have to feel. It no one ever 1068 00:57:02,040 --> 00:57:05,759 Speaker 1: comes back From oregon and speaks negatively about the. Experience, 1069 00:57:05,960 --> 00:57:07,759 Speaker 1: now you may think to, yourself, Yeah, josh BUT i 1070 00:57:07,800 --> 00:57:11,520 Speaker 1: read these articles and kids always speak glowingly of every 1071 00:57:11,520 --> 00:57:14,160 Speaker 1: program they go, to not off the.
