It 38 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 1: was and that's why we had a watch party, a 39 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,079 Speaker 1: viewing party last night. By the way, thanks for everybody 40 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: who tuned in. We had you know, like at one 41 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: point I think the big German said eight thousand people 42 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 1: were watching us watching the Sports Emmys. But the back 43 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: room guys did a great job. We had about an 44 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: hour and a half show red carpet treatment, and Mario 45 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 1: did a great job, Marvin the big German, Dylan Tyler, everybody, Alan, 46 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 1: just all the people behind the scenes did a wonderful 47 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: job there and my thanks to them. We had fun 48 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 1: last night. It's just great spending time with everybody. PAULI 49 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 1: brought his family, My wife and two of my daughters 50 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 1: came by to watch us lose, and three pet oh 51 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: for three. There's always next year. But I keep saying 52 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 1: it's bad for our brand if we win, because we 53 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 1: get a lot of mileage out of this. Can you 54 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: imagine what this is going to be like next year 55 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 1: if we if we go Buffalo Bills on the Sports Emmy's. 56 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 1: You know, the Cubs lost their brand when they won 57 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: Cleveland with Lebron lost their brand when they won, Yes, Todd, 58 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 1: the Bills at least could say they even though they 59 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: lost all them, they have fourth straight AFC championship titles. 60 00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: I don't know what we have. You don't win the Emmy. 61 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 1: There's really no prize of any cree. Yeah, but a 62 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 1: nomination is like an AFC title. I think that. I mean, 63 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 1: That's how I'm gonna categorize this. Yes Club. Jim Kelley 64 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 1: made the Hall of Fame. Well, I'm already going into 65 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame. You know, Andre Reid also made it, 66 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 1: which might be good for us. Dan, you guys probably 67 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 1: won't go into the Hall of Fame, maybe as a 68 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: show if they induct us, But yeah, I mean that, 69 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 1: I'm hopeful for that. But last night was fun and 70 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: everybody who tuned in a lot of support. But there 71 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 1: are a lot of snarky friends that I have that 72 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: gave me a couple of shots there last night.

If you've always 102 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:17,359 Speaker 1: wanted to have somebody listen to your idea. Now you 103 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 1: have that opportunity. Coming up, we'll talk to Rick Neuheisel's 104 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,919 Speaker 1: CBS Sports former college football coach, his thoughts on the 105 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 1: Big ten Pac twelve shutting things down for the fall. 106 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: Kerk kurb Street, who won a Sports Emmy last night 107 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 1: for Best Analyst. And you talk about a great category, 108 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 1: that's where you have Tony Romo's in there. Chris Collinsworth 109 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: wins just about every year. I mean, Troy Aikman was 110 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 1: in there. There's so many great analysts and Herbie ended 111 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 1: up winning it. So Kirk will join us coming up. 112 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: And Joe Montana. We thought we'd have somebody who's won something, 113 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 1: so Joe Montana, who is four and oh and Super 114 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 1: Bowls will join us to make fun of us being losers. 115 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 1: So that's coming up in a little bit. The Big 116 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 1: ten Pac twelve announced that football will be called off 117 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 1: for the fall. We'll see if other conferences follow suit. 118 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: But don't think for a second that this is the 119 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 1: end of the story, because there are so many questions 120 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 1: about what's next. Are they going to play in the spring? 121 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: Can you play in the spring? If you were a player, 122 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 1: would you play in the spring? Do players go home? 123 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 1: Do they stay on campus? Can they work out while 124 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 1: they're on campus? Can players try to compete elsewhere if 125 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,559 Speaker 1: there's no place else to go? Right now? What about 126 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 1: the long term impact on the sport? What about the 127 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 1: NFL Draft? What am I going to do on Saturdays? 128 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 1: More importantly, and depending on what happens, the NFL could 129 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 1: fill some of that TV time spreading out their schedule, 130 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: but it's impossible to replace the games we've become so 131 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: used to, and there's going to be a void in 132 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 1: the life of many sports fans. But hopefully, one day 133 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: soon we'll be able to be on the other side 134 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: of this pandemic in our day to day lives will 135 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: return to normal whatever that means, which means building our 136 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 1: weekends around college football. As I told you on Monday 137 00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: morning when I got the information that the Big Ten 138 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 1: in Pact twelve, we're going to announce on Tuesday that 139 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: they were canceling their seasons, which obviously happened, and I 140 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: didn't know about the ACC or SEC other than I 141 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:14,559 Speaker 1: was told by my source. They are going full speed ahead. 142 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 1: Notre Dame is planning on playing football, and then I said, 143 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: what about the Big twelve And my source at the 144 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 1: time said, they're on the fence right now. You have 145 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 1: Oklahoma and Texas who want to play, not quite sure 146 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 1: about the rest of the Big Twelve. This is what 147 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: I got from my source this morning. This is from 148 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 1: a Big twelve coach quote. When this happens, it separates 149 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 1: the acc SEC Big twelve from the others forever. That 150 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 1: sounds like the Big twelve is playing. It's all fluid. 151 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 1: It can change. I've said that from the outset. In fact, 152 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 1: on Tuesday morning, when the Big Ten presidents, we're going 153 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: to be voting again. I was told by my source 154 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 1: they're trying to delay this. It was happening in real 155 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 1: time when he was giving me the information, they were 156 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 1: doing their best to go spring football or delay. And 157 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: then the consensus was we're not going to be playing football. 158 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 1: But I also told you from the beginning, my source 159 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 1: said the Pac twelve did not want to be the 160 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 1: first conference to cancel. They didn't want the optics to 161 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 1: look like, well, the PAC twelve is sort of lesser 162 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,440 Speaker 1: conference of the Power five conference. And you saw what happened. 163 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,080 Speaker 1: The Big Ten announced it first and then the PAC 164 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 1: twelve followed do I think the ACC and SEC are 165 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 1: going to play? I do? I do right now? And 166 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: I was asked this question last night by a former coach, 167 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 1: and he said, is it a good thing? What happened 168 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 1: with the PAC ten or PAC twelve in the Big Ten? 169 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 1: Is it a good thing? What's happening with the SEC 170 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 1: and ACC? And I said, I don't know. I mean, 171 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 1: I'm looking at this and trying to be objective. If 172 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 1: you can play it, and they're going to be safe, 173 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: because the former coach said they're going to be safer 174 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 1: on campus now. He's all for everybody playing. And he said, 175 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 1: you know, the biggest problem is, I don't know how 176 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:21,080 Speaker 1: much thought the presidents of the Big ten schools gave this, 177 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 1: believe it or not, how much how much dialogue they had, 178 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: because it feels like the SEC and ACC they're in 179 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: lockstep here. And I know that the you know, the 180 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 1: Big twelve is just not quite sure. But Oklahoma and 181 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:39,439 Speaker 1: Texas want to play and they run that conference. Can 182 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 1: you get everybody else to fall in line? But the 183 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 1: safety protocols from what we hear with the SEC and ACC, 184 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 1: you know we're not We're not finding that they're very 185 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: many positive tests here. I would love to have the 186 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 1: medical community, the doctors with the ACC and SEC get 187 00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: together with the PAC twelve and Big ten doctors and 188 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,199 Speaker 1: I would just love to have them talk to one 189 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 1: another because what's the difference or what are the difference 190 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:11,959 Speaker 1: is because I don't know, but if the ACC and 191 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 1: SEC has medical communities that are saying we can do this, 192 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 1: then why can't the PAC twelve or Big ten. And 193 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,080 Speaker 1: I'm being objective with this, I don't know what is 194 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 1: the right or wrong answer because I don't know. We 195 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 1: may look back and say ACC and SEC pulled this off. 196 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 1: The NFL, I believe, will pull this off. They're going 197 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 1: to start. I don't know if they'll finish, but they're 198 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 1: going to start. There might be an interruption. Soccers pulled 199 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 1: it off, Hockey's pulled it off, the NBA's pulled it off. Golf. 200 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: I know it's different, Baseball not so much. But I 201 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 1: don't have a right answer here, and I may not 202 00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 1: have that until the end of this year. But I 203 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 1: think the Big twelve is really important to keep an 204 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 1: eye on them, because if you have the Big twelve 205 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 1: and you have the ACC, and you have the SEC, 206 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 1: you can have a college football season. And I think 207 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:17,840 Speaker 1: it comes down to that. If you have almost forty 208 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 1: teams who are going to be competing, and these are 209 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 1: marquee teams as well, I mean, we lose out on 210 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 1: the Big ten, and that really comes down to you 211 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:35,079 Speaker 1: lose out on Ohio State. You might say Wisconsin, Michigan 212 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 1: State out of down year Michigan, who knows, but you know, 213 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 1: PAC twelve, maybe you get one or two really good 214 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 1: teams out of there. But this, you know, you could 215 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 1: make an argument the ACC and SEC when they're done 216 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 1: with their conferences, those two teams who win are going 217 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 1: to play for the national championship. But if I have Clemson, Alabama, 218 00:12:56,679 --> 00:13:01,839 Speaker 1: and LSU, I throw in Oklahoma, fine, I mean that's 219 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 1: pretty much the final four. I'm good with that. I 220 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 1: don't have I don't have an answer. I don't know 221 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 1: what's right and wrong. I know what I thought is possible, 222 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:18,080 Speaker 1: not possible, but just trying to figure this out. And 223 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 1: what is strange is when somebody says this to me yesterday, 224 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,960 Speaker 1: in fact, people responded, it's like, you know, they need 225 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 1: a commissioner. You know, a college football needs a commissioner. 226 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: He said they have a president. I mean we could 227 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 1: rename him and just say he's a commissioner. But Mark 228 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: Emeron has disappeared. I haven't. I haven't seen anything from him, 229 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: heard anything from him. We I Fritzie calls, you got 230 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: him on speed dial. I think we're always saying, can 231 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 1: we get the you know, the president of the NCAA 232 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 1: on He's always unavailable. But we're trying because I'm just 233 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 1: trying to get answers here, just to understand it. You know, 234 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 1: somebody said yesterday, what about fans, man, let's hold off. 235 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 1: Let's just get football players first on the field, and 236 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 1: then if you get an opportunity where you can put 237 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 1: in twenty thousand fans. But I don't know where we 238 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 1: are right now with college football other than when we 239 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 1: had Greg sanky on. Why is it the SEC commissioners 240 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: so readily available nobody else was? Is because he's playing 241 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 1: football this year? Acc sounds like they're playing football sorts. 242 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 1: Yesterday I said, where's Notre Dame. Notre Dame is ready 243 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 1: to go? That was the comment, ready to go? And 244 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 1: I go, okay, they're already back at school ready to go. 245 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 1: Sort said, if you watch Notre Dame workout practice. You 246 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: wouldn't think that there was anything wrong, that they're ready 247 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 1: to go to play football, and I went all right. 248 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 1: So I don't know if the Big ten Pac twelve 249 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 1: made the right decision or not. If they made the 250 00:14:57,880 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 1: decision for the health and well being of this st 251 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 1: an athlete great. How much money was involved in this decision? 252 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:10,240 Speaker 1: How many conversations did the presidents have with one another? 253 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 1: Is what I wanted to know, and from what I 254 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: was told, not many. And that's why you had this vote. 255 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 1: You had the presidents voting, and they voted twelve to 256 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 1: two in the Big ten twelve said no, two said yes, 257 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 1: Iowa and Nebraska, and then they went And I was 258 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: told that I mobilized college football. My source said, you 259 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 1: know what, you mobilize college football. You got the players, coaches, 260 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 1: and athletic directors on the same page, which never happens, 261 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 1: and you got these presidents to reconsider their votes. Didn't 262 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 1: change it because my source said they had already made 263 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 1: the decision. They were too far down the road in 264 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 1: both of those conferences. But your comments when you broke 265 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: the story on Monday, mobilized college football. So for those 266 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 1: who said, oh, yeah, you got what you wanted. There's 267 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 1: no college football. I don't want this. I need college football. 268 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 1: I'm hopeful that we have college football. I wanted to 269 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 1: be wrong with this, but when I got that information 270 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 1: from somebody that I trust, I had to share it 271 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 1: on Monday morning. I took no glee, no pride in that, 272 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 1: other than we do our homework here and when I 273 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 1: tell you something, I've done my homework, but I don't. 274 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 1: I didn't come away feeling good about that on Monday. 275 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 1: In fact, I felt worse, hated saying that, and then 276 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 1: it turned out to be true yesterday when we heard 277 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 1: the Pac ten. I'm PAC twelve in Big ten. We're 278 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 1: gonna shut things down. All right, mclubt. You got a 279 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: pull question for me?

Okay, you mentioned 288 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 1: the impact on the final four. They've been six years 289 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:24,680 Speaker 1: of final four in college football. There's only been three 290 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:28,439 Speaker 1: teams outside of the Big twelve acc at SEC, and 291 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 1: that was in twenty fifteen Oregon, sixteen Michigan State and 292 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:38,360 Speaker 1: seventeen Washington. And only one of those teams won a game, 293 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:41,359 Speaker 1: Oregon in fourteen fifteen and then they got beat in 294 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:44,159 Speaker 1: the title game. So it's all the Final four is 295 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 1: always acc SEC, Big twelve. Well you're throwing Notre Dame 296 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:52,120 Speaker 1: in there, but Notre Dame wasn't in the ACCAME Okay, 297 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:54,359 Speaker 1: so you're right, like it, really you could have the 298 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 1: same final four. All four the twenty nineteen playoff teams 299 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:02,240 Speaker 1: are still playing planning on playing in two twenty Alabama, Oklahoma, Clemson, 300 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:05,680 Speaker 1: Notre Dame. All four the twenty eighteen playoff teams still 301 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:09,920 Speaker 1: plan on playing in twenty twenty Clemson, Alabama, Oklahoma, and Georgia. 302 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 1: So does this mean, I'm sorry, will there be a 303 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:14,239 Speaker 1: Final four if those three team there will be? Right? 304 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:17,680 Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, I'm I'm gonna guess it's 305 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,159 Speaker 1: still scheduled. I can try to find that out, but 306 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 1: I don't have any information. You know, we're just trying 307 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 1: call on Mark Emmett, the president of the NCAA. Maybe 308 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:29,880 Speaker 1: you could join us. I'm sure you did. He's unavailable, 309 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,879 Speaker 1: But today Todd has the pole question. Is Mark Emmert 310 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 1: unavailable the rest of his life? It's quite possible because 311 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 1: if that's true, then then I we won't call anymore. 312 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 1: Maybe after he retires and he feels more comfortable addressing 313 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,440 Speaker 1: these issues, but right now unavailable, we'll track him down 314 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,919 Speaker 1: and be like ninety years old, they Mark, could you 315 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:50,280 Speaker 1: come on Unavailable?

Ohio 400 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 1: State has been in the Final four every year and 401 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 1: I didn't count them as not being part of the 402 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 1: major conferences. But that doesn't count. This is why we 403 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,120 Speaker 1: don't win sports Jimmy. But the truth is like Ohio State, 404 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 1: yeah they're in the Big ten, but they kind of like, 405 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 1: I assume that someone's gonna seck them in so they 406 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: can be I like the and just kind of standing 407 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 1: by it, I respectedly, and that's like something Todd would do. 408 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:29,159 Speaker 1: All right, I'm gonna get to new Heisl here, But Fritzie, 409 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,960 Speaker 1: you've been building up this unbelievable poll question. Let me 410 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 1: hear it, which I think is appropriate for our guests, 411 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,880 Speaker 1: because i'd like coach just asked the question. Okay, sec 412 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 1: ACC Big twelve still pushing for fall football is admirable reckless? Okay, 413 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 1: so that's the poll question. Sec ACC Big twelve still 414 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:51,480 Speaker 1: pushing for fall football is admirable, reckless. That's the poll question. 415 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 1: Let's start there with Rick new Heisl, CBS Sports college 416 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,119 Speaker 1: football analyst and a man who always makes me smarter 417 00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 1: every time I talk to him about football. Rick, Ow 418 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 1: are you this morning? EP? I'm well, and I want 419 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:05,200 Speaker 1: to congratulate you on that great showing last night to 420 00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:08,480 Speaker 1: sports Emmy. Thank you outstanding. Thank you for those of 421 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 1: us who were not even nominated, thrill, brill, but you 422 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 1: had that kind of evening. All right. So sec ACC 423 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:20,439 Speaker 1: Big twelve still trying to play football is admirable or reckless? 424 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,720 Speaker 1: You know? That's to each his own. For me, it's 425 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 1: admirable because I still haven't seen any statistic that tells 426 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 1: me to college football players any safer not playing football. 427 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:37,159 Speaker 1: I mean, there's the thing. The thing that strikes me 428 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 1: as I look at what the PAC twelve and Big 429 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 1: ten did yesterday, is that many of these campuses are 430 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: inviting students back. They're going to be in on campus housing. 431 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:52,400 Speaker 1: How are you protecting them from COVID nineteen any more 432 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 1: than you can be at protecting your football team. Given 433 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,680 Speaker 1: all the protocols and all the testing numbers that seem 434 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:02,640 Speaker 1: so positive. Jim Hardball gave out a list of his numbers. 435 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 1: We had Lance Lighthold on the head coach at Buffalo. 436 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,200 Speaker 1: Of course, the MAC has decided not to play. He said, 437 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,199 Speaker 1: six hundred and sixty two tests, three positives. I mean, 438 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 1: those numbers seem reasonable, but again, it's all your risk tolerance. 439 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 1: And so I'm with the kids that want to play. 440 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,480 Speaker 1: I'm with the coaches that want to coach. I'm with 441 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:27,480 Speaker 1: the schools that think that they can do this as 442 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 1: safely as the NBA is going forward, as safely as 443 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:34,400 Speaker 1: national hockey leagues going forward. I think it can be done. 444 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:36,639 Speaker 1: What do you think the collateral damage is going to 445 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:40,680 Speaker 1: be to the Big ten and PAC twelve. Well. As 446 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:44,800 Speaker 1: a PAC twelve apologist, I feel very fortunate that the 447 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 1: Big ten's with them. I had fear that it was 448 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 1: going to be the PAC twelve alone and that would 449 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:54,679 Speaker 1: have been absolutely devastating for their brand long term. The 450 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,360 Speaker 1: fact that the Big ten has chosen not to do 451 00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,240 Speaker 1: not to play football in the fall is help fold 452 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,359 Speaker 1: of the PAC twelve because it gives them some cover. 453 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 1: But I think but both those conferences have to do 454 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 1: is tell us what happened in the five days since 455 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 1: or six days since the Big ten released a schedule? 456 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:15,239 Speaker 1: What new medical information do they have? Because if it 457 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:17,800 Speaker 1: is in fact new medical information, the rest of these 458 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:20,439 Speaker 1: conferences deserve to have it as well. And that's what 459 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 1: I wanted to know. If I got the doctors from 460 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 1: the ACC and SEC to get together with the doctors 461 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: medical community with a Big ten in PAC twelve, I 462 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 1: would just love to have that information disseminated. Want I 463 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 1: want to know. We need to know this information because 464 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 1: you got if I'm sending my kids back to an 465 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:43,600 Speaker 1: ACC and SEC school or I'm sending them to a 466 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:46,200 Speaker 1: PAC twelve or Big ten school feels like there's a 467 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 1: different feel in those communities here, and I'd love for 468 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:54,720 Speaker 1: those doctors to kind of cross pollinate here with information. Absolutely, 469 00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 1: it's like watching news today in our country. You're depending 470 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 1: on what channel you turn on, you're going to get 471 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 1: a flavor of news. And now we're getting flavors of 472 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 1: medical information. And I think that's ridiculous. This is too 473 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 1: important to not know everything there is to know. But 474 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 1: it is concerning when you have doctors that are saying 475 00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 1: this is doable, this is achievable, and there's no reason 476 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 1: not to proceed, and then you have two conferences yesterday, 477 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 1: stand up in front of us and say it's just 478 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 1: not safe. It makes us all wonder what happened, especially 479 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 1: when you go through the process of creating a schedule 480 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 1: with all sorts of flexibility built in for what were 481 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,879 Speaker 1: it's going to be perceives spikes and COVID cases so 482 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 1: that you could move games and such, and now all 483 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:45,360 Speaker 1: of a sudden you're deciding elsewhere. You wonder if they're 484 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 1: the conspiracy theorist, and all of us wonders if there's 485 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,359 Speaker 1: something else afoot. I wonder if Jim Delaney was still 486 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:53,719 Speaker 1: the Big ten Commissioner if this would have happened, Rick, 487 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: interesting question, and what also is interesting about the Big 488 00:27:57,320 --> 00:28:00,320 Speaker 1: Tennis as opposed to the Pact twelve is all the 489 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:04,160 Speaker 1: disconnect right over the weekend, all these coaches coming out 490 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:07,120 Speaker 1: and speaking they want to save their programs, Ryan Day, 491 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:10,920 Speaker 1: Scott Frost, James Franklin, Jim Harbaugh. But you know those 492 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:14,959 Speaker 1: are power programs, and those guys and even today Nebraska 493 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:19,320 Speaker 1: looking for another place to play. That is as disharmonious 494 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 1: as you can imagine in the early portions of Kevin 495 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:26,119 Speaker 1: Warren's tenure. There we're talking to Rick new Heisl's CBS 496 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 1: Sports College Football and understand, of course, former college coach, 497 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:34,120 Speaker 1: if you were back at UCLA or Colorado or Washington, like, 498 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:36,919 Speaker 1: what would you be doing. What would you be saying? 499 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 1: You'd be trying to hang on the players, because you 500 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:44,840 Speaker 1: have to wonder if you're Pine Sewel, that star offensive 501 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 1: tackle for Oregon, if he's not getting a bunch of 502 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 1: phone calls right now. I mean, there's no way that 503 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 1: the NCAA is going to stop anybody from transferring if 504 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 1: this was going to be, in fact, their last year 505 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 1: in college. There's no place to play here. At the Eugene. 506 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 1: Can I go to Alabama? Well, I go? Could Justin 507 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 1: Fields go back to Georgia? I think absolutely? And I 508 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 1: if I'm Nick Saban, I'm on the phone to Justin Fields. Absolutely, 509 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 1: I'm on the phone to Justin Fields, and Justin you 510 00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 1: want to I know you've got one more year, you're 511 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 1: thinking about a glorious NFL career. After that, we got 512 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,920 Speaker 1: a place where you can polish your skill set and 513 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 1: get ready for that next challenge. But if I'm a coach, 514 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 1: I'm having that conversation with my players and trying to 515 00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 1: keep as bright side of a scenario as I can 516 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 1: so that I can sustain my program. Is it legal 517 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 1: for Nick Saban to reach out to Justin Fields at 518 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:48,960 Speaker 1: Ohio State? Well? Legal is a terminal. Won't do it directly? Okay, 519 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 1: there's a third party, right the cocon a telegraph. If 520 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 1: you will, how would you do it? How would you 521 00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 1: do it? You go to the high school coaches. It's 522 00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 1: always go through the high school coach. And you know 523 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 1: in the world it's six degrees of separation and coaching 524 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 1: it's two. So it doesn't take long. Yeah, I'm just 525 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 1: trying to figure this out and then spring football, which 526 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 1: I don't know how likely that is because I can't 527 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:19,600 Speaker 1: ask these kids. Let's say you're a sophomore now, and 528 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 1: you're going to play in the spring, and then you're 529 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 1: going to play in the fall. I would just skip 530 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:26,880 Speaker 1: the spring and play in the fall if I thought 531 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 1: I was going into the NFL rick. The likelihood of 532 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 1: the Big ten or Pac twelve playing spring football as one, 533 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 1: I think less than fifty percent. I mean, I think 534 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:39,880 Speaker 1: we might have kind of a glorified spring game something 535 00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 1: to you know, one off type of game where you 536 00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 1: get a scrimmage, you know, where two big programs play. 537 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 1: And I think there are a lot of people that 538 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 1: have been looking forward to that over the years. But 539 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 1: you just canceled seasons on the basis of health, safety 540 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:55,520 Speaker 1: and wellness. And I guarantee you we can go back 541 00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,360 Speaker 1: and look at the data and talk about how many 542 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:00,760 Speaker 1: games can you play? How many collision can you take? 543 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 1: I mean, it wasn't so long ago. Concussion was on 544 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 1: everybody's tip of their tongue and in the CTE and 545 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:12,440 Speaker 1: the first the C stands for chronic too many hits. 546 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 1: You're already talking These aren't NFL players because the NFL 547 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 1: is getting ready to go, right, so I don't know 548 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 1: the likelihood of it. Where is the NCAA president Mark 549 00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:25,760 Speaker 1: Emmert in all of this. Well, I heard you talking 550 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 1: about mister Emmett, and I want you to know he's 551 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 1: an economist, okay, which means he has an economy of 552 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 1: words like this is disheartening, Thanks commissioner. This is distressing, 553 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: Thanks commissioner. He's powerless in the world of college football. 554 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 1: The power lies in the hands of these commissioners. He 555 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 1: doesn't have. Now. If this college basketball, we'd be hearing 556 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:52,479 Speaker 1: more from him because they run the tournament. But in 557 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:56,440 Speaker 1: this particular case, especially with all these student activist groups 558 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 1: out there, he's going to remain on the sideline in 559 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 1: this deal. Good to talk to you. Hope you're well. 560 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 1: I am well. And again, congratulations on that, Ammy Man. 561 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 1: Thank you. No, I lot No we lost. Oh oh 562 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:13,920 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Yeah, yeah, I got I got the wrong memo. Yeah, 563 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 1: we kind of performed the way you did when you 564 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:20,400 Speaker 1: were at Colorado and UCLA. How you are Wow? Wow, 565 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 1: go ahead and go ahead and rub it in. Thank 566 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 1: you coach. All right, boys, take care, that's new. Rick 567 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 1: Neuheisl CBS Sports college football analyst. How about that if 568 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:36,840 Speaker 1: you're Nick Saban might want to reach out to Justin 569 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:41,280 Speaker 1: Fields and the NC double A. How could they say, well, 570 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:47,160 Speaker 1: you can't transfer, your school's not playing football and this 571 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 1: Justin Fields is considered maybe the most talented quarterback Ohio 572 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:55,200 Speaker 1: State has ever had from people I know in Columbus, 573 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:58,280 Speaker 1: they think that this is something that they have not 574 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 1: they have not had before and they just got you know, 575 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:03,560 Speaker 1: came away from Haskins two years ago, way through fifty 576 00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 1: touchdown passes. But Justin Fields is a special special quarterback there. 577 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:11,959 Speaker 1: But if you can transfer, he could go back to Georgia. 578 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:17,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm sure they'd take him. You'd certainly 579 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:20,440 Speaker 1: take him. So Alabama didn't get him, that's for sure. 580 00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:25,239 Speaker 1: But yeah, it's interesting and I'm going to have this 581 00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 1: opinion the whole day. So if you want to beat 582 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 1: me up over it, I don't know what is the 583 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 1: right decision. I applaud the sec ACC Big twelve for 584 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:38,880 Speaker 1: still trying to do this. I didn't understand the whole 585 00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 1: timing of the Big Ten was really puzzling for me. 586 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:47,920 Speaker 1: Seven days ago I had the schedule. What happened? Were 587 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 1: you waiting for something, did something not deliver? Did did 588 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 1: you get something and you didn't like what you saw? 589 00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:58,160 Speaker 1: Was this the Mid American Conference? Because if you're in 590 00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 1: the Midwest and all to those schools are saying they're 591 00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 1: not going to play, and you're in the Midwest and 592 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:07,720 Speaker 1: then you're going to play. I don't know what the 593 00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:11,880 Speaker 1: logic was with this. Maybe it came down to just safety. 594 00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 1: And if that's you know, where they made their decision 595 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:18,280 Speaker 1: or was based on that, then okay, I can't argue 596 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:21,719 Speaker 1: with that, but I can make an argument. I think 597 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:25,840 Speaker 1: you're safer on campus. A lot of these student athletes 598 00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:27,920 Speaker 1: when they go home are not going to have testing 599 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 1: available and they're going to be staying on campus and 600 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:36,759 Speaker 1: they're going to be working out, but they're not going 601 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:39,400 Speaker 1: to be playing football. Your phone call is coming up 602 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 1: Play of the Day as well. Back after this.

If you're the NBA. Do 609 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 1: you suspend the Greek freak? Now, you can look at this, 610 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,760 Speaker 1: and we often do. If this is Draymond Green, Draymond 611 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:12,480 Speaker 1: Green gets suspended, if JR. Smith does this, if Patrick 612 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:18,279 Speaker 1: Beverley does this. But Jannis, that's not his style. We 613 00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:21,759 Speaker 1: normally don't see him react that way, act that way. 614 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:25,840 Speaker 1: And that's why when you're watching it, is it egregious? 615 00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:31,000 Speaker 1: When I watched it, No, but it's you know, that's 616 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,120 Speaker 1: there's more there than there needs to be. Let's put 617 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:35,120 Speaker 1: it that way. If he would have used his arm 618 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:37,440 Speaker 1: and just pushed him away, he could have accomplished the 619 00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:41,439 Speaker 1: same thing. But when you're going to now let's say 620 00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 1: Moe Wagner started bleeding. Let's say he needed stitches, then 621 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 1: it feels like, well, you gotta suspend him. So we 622 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:52,960 Speaker 1: look at the end result. Oh wait, when bleeding and 623 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:56,440 Speaker 1: I probably didn't have a headache, probably didn't leave him mark. No, 624 00:35:56,719 --> 00:36:01,000 Speaker 1: you can't suspend the Greek freak. But if Moe Wagner 625 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:03,439 Speaker 1: is bleeding, then all of a sudden you're going, oh, 626 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:07,080 Speaker 1: you gotta sit him down. I think he's going to 627 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:11,400 Speaker 1: get a haul pass with this. I do. Play of 628 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:13,440 Speaker 1: the Day is brought to you by legal Zoom.

By the way, just saw this 634 00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:29,839 Speaker 1: from Brett McMurphy, who covers college football. Big twelve will 635 00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:33,439 Speaker 1: have a noon Eastern news conference where they're Commissioner Bob 636 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:37,400 Speaker 1: Bulsby will provide an update on the twenty twenty fall 637 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 1: sports season. Yeah, this is and I gave you the 638 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 1: quote from my source from a Big twelve coach saying 639 00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:50,879 Speaker 1: that this is going to separate them. Now, this elevates 640 00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:54,320 Speaker 1: the Big Twelve over the Big Ten, according to one coach, 641 00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:57,719 Speaker 1: because now we're playing football. I don't know what the 642 00:36:57,800 --> 00:36:59,920 Speaker 1: decision is going to be. I can only tell you 643 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:03,279 Speaker 1: from what I learned on Monday. Oklahoma and Texas were 644 00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:06,880 Speaker 1: leading the charge and not everybody else was falling in line. 645 00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:09,440 Speaker 1: They were on the fence. That was the quote that 646 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:12,279 Speaker 1: I got. That's the quote that you're seeing from some 647 00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:15,520 Speaker 1: other outlets here. Subsequently, Yes, h if the Big Twelve 648 00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:17,279 Speaker 1: was to pull the plug on the full season. Now 649 00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 1: that's three of the five. How does that affect, if 650 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,480 Speaker 1: at all, what the SEC and ACC gonna. I don't 651 00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:24,839 Speaker 1: know if it does. But we'll talk to Kirk kurb Street. 652 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 1: He'll join us coming up next hour, Chris and Los 653 00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 1: Angeles leads us off. Hi, Chris, what do you have 654 00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 1: for me today? Hey, good morning Dan. A couple of things, 655 00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:36,640 Speaker 1: A health comment and a legal comment. First of all, 656 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:39,960 Speaker 1: I think from a health sample, I find it. I'm 657 00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:44,359 Speaker 1: a college football shan, period, But I find it kind 658 00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:48,640 Speaker 1: of ridiculous that there's this uproar because if you remember, 659 00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:53,000 Speaker 1: we had the NCAA basketball tournament canceled. We've had the 660 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:57,520 Speaker 1: Wimbledon concil, We've had the Olympics postponed. I mean, we're 661 00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 1: going through a pandemic, so we had all the incredible 662 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:05,239 Speaker 1: historic sporting events canceled. Now, all of a sudden, when 663 00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:09,600 Speaker 1: college football decides it can't go forward, there's this outrage. 664 00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:12,560 Speaker 1: You know, you had high school kids who weren't able 665 00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:16,480 Speaker 1: to go to the graduation their proms, graduate from college 666 00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:19,960 Speaker 1: in June. Families weren't able to see their first family 667 00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:24,320 Speaker 1: member graduate from college. So what makes college football players 668 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:27,759 Speaker 1: immune from what we're all dealing with, which is a 669 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:31,080 Speaker 1: once in a lifetime situation. It's horrible, but that's the 670 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:33,600 Speaker 1: reality of it. And from a legal standpoint as a lawyer, 671 00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:36,600 Speaker 1: this is going to be interesting to me because I'm 672 00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 1: not surprised that the other league's followed, because the first 673 00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:43,440 Speaker 1: few questions at a deposition when one of these kids 674 00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:46,319 Speaker 1: is sick or unfortunately dies, it is going to be 675 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:51,160 Speaker 1: to the president. You were aware that the other leagues 676 00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:55,440 Speaker 1: canceled their schedule because of the pandemic, correct, of course, 677 00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:58,800 Speaker 1: and so what was your reason for going forward? That's 678 00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:01,120 Speaker 1: a heck of a question to try to answer. We 679 00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:05,359 Speaker 1: went forward because it's college football, because the money. I mean, 680 00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:08,640 Speaker 1: what's your answer to that. So I will not be 681 00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:12,479 Speaker 1: shocked if the other leagues end up chanceling as well. 682 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,440 Speaker 1: Maybe not the SEC because of how ingrained it is, 683 00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:18,640 Speaker 1: but that's from a legal standpoint. I understand why the 684 00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:21,279 Speaker 1: presidents did what they did, and I hope it was 685 00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:23,760 Speaker 1: also because of the health aspect of Yeah, I do too, 686 00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:26,120 Speaker 1: And those are all great points that you bring up. Chris, 687 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 1: Thanks for the phone call, but you're mentioning all the 688 00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:31,319 Speaker 1: sports that were canceled that's back in April and May. 689 00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 1: Football had time, and football does have some pretty good 690 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:38,800 Speaker 1: safety guidelines here. The NFL. The NFL is going to 691 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:43,279 Speaker 1: play this year, but they've had time to implement these 692 00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:48,520 Speaker 1: safety precautions and the testing that's available and monitoring these athletes. 693 00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:52,000 Speaker 1: They're gonna bubble these NFL teams when they're in their 694 00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 1: home city. They'll be probably bubbled in a hotel. They're 695 00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:58,759 Speaker 1: going to do their best to make this happen. But 696 00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:01,080 Speaker 1: I don't know what the Big twelve is going to do, 697 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:04,040 Speaker 1: but it does feel like the ACC and the SEC 698 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 1: are going to go down swinging. I applaud them that 699 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:11,720 Speaker 1: they're trying. I just want to know what their medical 700 00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 1: community is saying, and how is that different from the 701 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:18,400 Speaker 1: PAC twelve and the Big ten, And why can't I 702 00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:22,080 Speaker 1: get those reports together? We should be trying to understand 703 00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 1: this as as a society, like what are they doing 704 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:30,480 Speaker 1: that makes them more susceptible less susceptible? Now, the testing 705 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:33,440 Speaker 1: procedures here, the results when they come back, like, what 706 00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:35,920 Speaker 1: are you finding out? I don't want it to be 707 00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:39,160 Speaker 1: and I've said this for quite some time. We think 708 00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 1: it's the Power five conferences. It's every conference for himself. 709 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:48,720 Speaker 1: Let's not kid anybody, you know with the PAC twelve 710 00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:51,360 Speaker 1: and Big ten. I don't know if Greg Sanky and 711 00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:54,879 Speaker 1: the SEC went, oh boy, they probably would have loved 712 00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,279 Speaker 1: to have still had the Big ten in there. But 713 00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:03,040 Speaker 1: you know, money is the great divider here, and you 714 00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:06,280 Speaker 1: had these smaller schools that just didn't have the money 715 00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:09,480 Speaker 1: to be able to test and it wasn't worth it 716 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:14,319 Speaker 1: because they don't bring in fifty million dollars from their 717 00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:18,640 Speaker 1: football program. Let me see, Nick, and Los Angeles will 718 00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:20,319 Speaker 1: try to sneak you in for the top of the 719 00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:23,160 Speaker 1: hour high Nick, Hey there, how are you doing good? Sir? 720 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:26,880 Speaker 1: I just had a counter to what new heisl was 721 00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:29,440 Speaker 1: saying that, you know, if the kids can go to school, 722 00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:31,239 Speaker 1: then why can't they play football. It's all the same. 723 00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:34,160 Speaker 1: But when you go to your political science class, you're 724 00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:37,760 Speaker 1: not breathing heavily in your classmates faced from four inches 725 00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:40,719 Speaker 1: away for two hours. Yeah, it's apples to oranges. You 726 00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:43,839 Speaker 1: can't compare the two. You know, these guys are going 727 00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:47,040 Speaker 1: through a walkthrough or maybe having you know, film study. Okay, fine, 728 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 1: but when you're on the field, especially when you get 729 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 1: into real game, especially lineman or when guys are jumping 730 00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:55,759 Speaker 1: on a fumble pile, or four guys wrap up a 731 00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:58,600 Speaker 1: running back. That's not the same as going to class. 732 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:02,600 Speaker 1: Thank you for the phone call, Nick. We'll keep the 733 00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:05,000 Speaker 1: topic going with Kirk Curb Street One is sports Emmy 734 00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:07,720 Speaker 1: last night. We'll talk to Herbie in about twenty minutes 735 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:11,320 Speaker 1: from now. More phone calls as well, and Joe Montana 736 00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:13,479 Speaker 1: will join us in the final hour of the show. 737 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:18,520 Speaker 1: Seatan Paulie, Fritzie mclovin, yours truly the losers. This is 738 00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 1: the Dan Patrick Show.
