Speaker 1: Final hour in this Monday, I hope you had a
Speaker 1: great weekend. We'll talk to Gary Danielson, form an NFL quarterback.
Speaker 1: He was on the call for Army and Navy. Talk
Speaker 1: to him about a variety of things. What's coming up
Speaker 1: now should have been coming up before. And that's the
Speaker 1: transfer portal. That there is a player at Penn State
Speaker 1: backup quarterback who is not going to play in the
Speaker 1: playoff game with Penn State versus SMU. He's going to
Speaker 1: be transferring. I'm told that there is another player in
Speaker 1: the playoffs who might not be playing for his team
Speaker 1: because these other schools are saying, we want you to
Speaker 1: come to our school. We don't want you to risk
Speaker 1: getting injured because if you're at Penn State, they have
Speaker 1: a chance to run the table. Maybe you're playing in
Speaker 1: three games, and if we're going to take you, give
Speaker 1: you nil. We want you to come to our school
Speaker 1: and we want you to come down. So this should
Speaker 1: be easy. The biggest thing is let's fix it. Getting
Speaker 1: everybody thinking about the same thing on this topic, then
Speaker 1: it's fixed. You don't allow this to happen during the
Speaker 1: college football playoffs. But when you look at just how
Speaker 1: unstructured college football is right now trying to get you know, players, agents, coaches,
Speaker 1: everybody with the same timeline. That's going to be really difficult.
Speaker 1: Now here's another thing to factor in. This is not
Speaker 1: brought up. I don't know if you even care. I
Speaker 1: do the current environment, the number of players. So you
Speaker 1: have fbs FCS Division two, they enter the transfer portal.
Speaker 1: So when you do that, you give up your athletic aid.
Speaker 1: Then you got to find a place to go. So
Speaker 1: just because you get in the transfer portal doesn't mean
Speaker 1: somebody's going to take you. Well, a lot of these
Speaker 1: kids will leave school and they won't be able to
Speaker 1: go back. So we can talk about players who are
Speaker 1: wanted by somebody else nil getting money, but there's a
Speaker 1: lot of players who go in the transfer portal and
Speaker 1: nobody takes it and their college careers are over eight
Speaker 1: seven seven to three. D P Show email address DP

Speaker 1: the program. We'll get to more phone calls coming up.
Speaker 1: Poll question from our two, the results of that seat
Speaker 1: and what are we going to go with In the
Speaker 1: final hour.
Speaker 2: I'll update you on both poll quests. Okay, and I
Speaker 2: don't care, there's no rules. Let's say last hour we
Speaker 2: had up there underrated team I'd least like the uh face.
Speaker 2: In the playoffs right now, the Rams are leading that,
Speaker 2: followed by the Buccaneers Broncos. Unfortunately, Todd are in the
Speaker 2: last place that one, sorry, buddy. Also, who had the
Speaker 2: worst weekend? Army Detroit Lions or the Steelers right now
Speaker 2: the Lions running away with that one, followed by the
Speaker 2: or by Army Football and the Steelers in last place.
Speaker 3: There.
Speaker 1: They didn't have a terrible I didn't think the Steelers
Speaker 1: were going to win. I was surprised they were man
Speaker 1: handled that defense, certainly in the second half. That was
Speaker 1: extremely impressive. And Jalen Hurts. When Jalen Hurts plays like
Speaker 1: a top end quarterback, you're not going to beat him,
Speaker 1: but the issue is that he's you know, he's not consistent,
Speaker 1: and you're going to have one of those games. It's
Speaker 1: just same thing I worry about with Josh Allen and
Speaker 1: the Bills. If he has a average game, given that
Speaker 1: defense allowing teams to get thirty points or so, then
Speaker 1: you're going to be vulnerable. Now we haven't seen that.
Speaker 1: In the last three games, he has played lights out.
Speaker 1: He's played unbelievable to be your MVP. It's just you
Speaker 1: don't want to have one of those MVP seasons like
Speaker 1: we had with Lamar Jackson, where it's like, man, he
Speaker 1: was unbelievable, and then all of a sudden he's vulnerable
Speaker 1: and then they get bounced from the playoffs. All right,
Speaker 1: so pull question for the final hour seaton. This one's
Speaker 1: from the Toddler. But if you're a Bucks or Thunders
Speaker 1: fan and your team wins the NBA Cup, will you
Speaker 1: be will you be buying merch? I was curious to
Speaker 1: see if you're gonna go on you're obsessed with being
Speaker 1: sarcastic with the Cup.
Speaker 4: I just find it.
Speaker 5: Very contrived and I can't believe those who are into it. Great,
Speaker 5: but it just seems like the very how do we
Speaker 5: get people interested in the NBA and.
Speaker 1: It's not even Christmas time.
Speaker 5: Let's do this kind of thing with a playoff in
Speaker 5: a cup and give out a trophy. It just and
Speaker 5: people buy into that just because we're starved for entertainment.
Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. I'm just fascinated by it.
Speaker 5: And we'll call it the NBA Cup and you'll get
Speaker 5: this thing, which has nothing to do with winning the
Speaker 5: NBA Championship on any level.
Speaker 1: It's some mid season thing. And would you even.
Speaker 5: Buy a hat or a shirt or a flag or
Speaker 5: anything if you're Bucks or your thunder with to win
Speaker 5: this tomorrow night?
Speaker 6: Is my question.
Speaker 3: I think it's a fair question.
Speaker 5: Walk around with NBA Cup champions you'd really wear that
Speaker 5: T shirt?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: See, Okay, how about who had the best weekend? We
Speaker 2: haven't done that. Okay, we could do that one. Okay, Well,
Speaker 2: it's tough to say that anybody other than Dion Sanders
Speaker 2: he had a great weekend.
Speaker 1: I think Josh Allen had a great weekend. He did.
Speaker 1: He had his Heisman moment national TV, not a standalone game.
Speaker 1: You had the Eagles and Steelers at the same time,
Speaker 1: but still he was spectacular. Uh yeah, Dion might have
Speaker 1: a better day NFL Draft Night when Travis Hunter and
Speaker 1: Shudor Sanders go one two, that's pretty good. Yeah, yes, Paul,
Speaker 1: anybody else.
Speaker 7: I'll throw out Marcus Freeman of Notre Dame. He parlayed
Speaker 7: a air quote rumor about the Bears job into a
Speaker 7: big extension at Notre Dame without actually winning anything yet,
Speaker 7: no offense.
Speaker 4: They have not even wont one playoff game. He got
Speaker 4: a big extension and.
Speaker 1: That game is Friday against Indiana. Right, don't sleep on
Speaker 1: the schedule here. I don't know what the weather is
Speaker 1: going to be, like, Oh yes, Paly.
Speaker 7: Yeah, twenty nine and snow at kickoff predicted. Okay, that's
Speaker 7: South Bend weather.
Speaker 1: Well that's not going to that won't affect Indiana. I
Speaker 1: mean Indiana gets the same weather South Bend. I'm guessing
Speaker 1: they'll be acclimated to that. Something like SMU is gonna
Speaker 1: that they're going to Penn State.
Speaker 7: I did see a report that they called a snow
Speaker 7: corridor in South Bend that gets a lot of snow. Oh,
Speaker 7: I don't know if that's true that I like saying
Speaker 7: the phrase snow corridor.
Speaker 1: Okay, what's like, what are those bombs those on their
Speaker 1: snow those cyclone bombs or what are they called? That's
Speaker 1: like trying to cut from the ice creab truck.
Speaker 4: It's delious.
Speaker 1: A bomb cyclone, isn't that what it is? Yeah? Is that? Yeah? Okay?
Speaker 1: Bomb cycling? I had a cyclone bo Yes, Tom, you
Speaker 1: know it is gonna affect Indiana, Notre Dame being better
Speaker 1: than them? You want to bet on it? You really
Speaker 1: think indianaga? No, I'm just saying you're really cocky and sarcastic,
Speaker 1: and you know about the weather ended up winning and
Speaker 1: it's now we not they.
Speaker 5: Weather won't affect Indiana because Indiana gets cold, but Notre
Speaker 5: Dame being better will affect you.
Speaker 1: That I think it is to be pointed, it's just
Speaker 1: spread seven and a half. Yep, okay, seven and a half,
Speaker 1: not a Dame better wing. Yeah. Say that's a must
Speaker 1: win game. That is a that's most must win the
Speaker 1: game of the weekendout question. Yes, you gotta win that games.
Speaker 3: You got it.
Speaker 1: You get a contract extension, you're facing team in state.
Speaker 1: You gotta win most must win game of the weekend.
Speaker 4: If I'm a Notre Dame fan, I hate this game.
Speaker 1: Uh. Patrick Mahomes got banged up the fourth quarter. He
Speaker 1: talked about his injury. Yeah, I mean it's hard to
Speaker 1: say right now.
Speaker 8: I mean, obviously it's still adrenaline rolling, and usually it's
Speaker 8: kind of the day after and you kind of get
Speaker 8: a good, good sense of it. But I feel like
Speaker 8: I could have finished the game in different circumstances. But
Speaker 8: I thought a smart decision I think we talked about
Speaker 8: was to put Carson in and he's played a lot
Speaker 8: of football and he finished the game.
Speaker 1: Well, let me see if I could get some more
Speaker 1: comments from Patrick Mahomes on the ankle. Patrick the kind
Speaker 1: of went high low on me.
Speaker 4: He was, no, no, no, I'll be a fine.
Speaker 6: I'll be you know, I've been in worse situation that
Speaker 6: a big deal.
Speaker 4: We'll just fine.
Speaker 1: I want to play an excellity of coach Rita.
Speaker 5: Let me.
Speaker 1: Derek in Desmonet, Hey Derek.
Speaker 3: Hey Dan, thanks for taking my call. I got a
Speaker 3: best of the weekend for you, all right. Travis Hunter's
Speaker 3: smile just made my day and reminded me that the
Speaker 3: holidays merely upon us and I'm wondering Europe. I need
Speaker 3: the opinion of some slender models and a famous actor.
Speaker 3: Can someone learn how to smile? Because I'm going to
Speaker 3: be in family photos and I can't smile photos. That
Speaker 3: saves my life.
Speaker 1: Okay. Models know how to relax their face so when
Speaker 1: they smile, you see their teeth and their eyes are open.
Speaker 1: Whenever they take photos. They want to make sure your
Speaker 1: eyes are open when you smile. Unlike me, I get
Speaker 1: the squinty eyes when I'm smiling. So I'm the wrong
Speaker 1: person to ask when it comes to smiling. See you
Speaker 1: take good photographs.
Speaker 9: No, I'm the worst smiler ever, really the worst.
Speaker 2: If you asked me, like, hey, smile right now and
Speaker 2: you have to show your teeth up, nothing is more.
Speaker 9: Forced or it looks more uncomfortable.
Speaker 1: How about you, Marvin.
Speaker 10: No, every single picture I post on Instagram or any
Speaker 10: social media, I always caption it.
Speaker 1: I promise I'm happy here. Well, we put on a
Speaker 1: Christmas card and then we tried to get everybody in
Speaker 1: the picture, all the kids and you know, granddaughter, and
Speaker 1: I screw up every one of them. There were eight
Speaker 1: pictures to nine pictures taken. There's one where I'm pointing
Speaker 1: at the camp like I and my wife said, how
Speaker 1: do you how do you do that? I said, I
Speaker 1: it's it's a real you know, it's a it's a
Speaker 1: great quality that I have ruining pictures. Every pictures bad.
Speaker 1: My eyes are shot looking the wrong way. So if
Speaker 1: you get the Christmas card, then you'll see like, did
Speaker 1: a horrible job. Horrible and by now, yes.
Speaker 10: You have a picture around here, and I think you
Speaker 10: use it as a credential. You have your arms folded
Speaker 10: and you're to the side. Yeah, and it's very do
Speaker 10: you know who my dad is? I love that one
Speaker 10: very much.
Speaker 1: That's Zoolander. Yes, that's that's it with the big German
Speaker 1: and Dylan in the in the room where big German
Speaker 1: works directing the show. That's a that goes back to
Speaker 1: sports illustrating. When I took that one, that was a
Speaker 1: good year for me, Like my hair looked good, Like
Speaker 1: I really like that year. I don't know what year
Speaker 1: it was, but that one was blue steel.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Seiden, there's this one picture from back in the
Speaker 2: day that our old bosses used to use on everything.
Speaker 2: They used to put it all over the by. Anytime
Speaker 2: they sent something out, they would use this one picture
Speaker 2: and it might be collectively of the five of us.
Speaker 2: When Andrew was here the worst picture of the five
Speaker 2: of us where it's like, wo, why is this the
Speaker 2: one that you keep using?
Speaker 1: And they hired a professional to take those photos. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that was the guy.
Speaker 2: He were like standing there, and after like maybe fifteen
Speaker 2: seconds of him taking pictures of me, he goes, so,
Speaker 2: do you do any other poses?
Speaker 3: Or is this it?
Speaker 1: I don't know that. Sorry, I'm not a model. I
Speaker 1: don't know what the hell do So do you do
Speaker 1: any other poses?
Speaker 3: Or is this it?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 7: Sometimes when my family is together, let's say Christmas or
Speaker 7: the holidays, I try to get candids where they're not
Speaker 7: looking like they're just opening a present or making dinner together.
Speaker 7: And as soon as I take the camera out and
Speaker 7: someone sees me, they turn and do the hard pose.
Speaker 7: I'm like, no, no, no, just relax. And then when
Speaker 7: you tell someone to relax, they don't relax whatsoever.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I'm not good at taking pictures or somebody photographing me. No,
Speaker 1: not good at all. I look back when some of
Speaker 1: these like though you know your Wikipedia or something, they'll
Speaker 1: bring up these pictures go Damn, that's bad. That's a
Speaker 1: bad year, that's not good. But hey, that's why we
Speaker 1: have a face for radio. Yes, did your hair look good?
Speaker 1: There were they were like a three year window. No
Speaker 1: bad moss. Yeah, it's a bad shade of auburn. I think.
Speaker 4: Wasn't that a Tom Petty song?
Speaker 3: She Gotta fix You?
Speaker 1: No, we got I got it? Yeah, yeah it was
Speaker 1: just And these TVs are so good now I get
Speaker 1: if standard definition was your friend when you were when
Speaker 1: you were doing TV with standard definition, It's like, all right,

Speaker 3: Hi?
Speaker 11: DP? Thanks for I call got the two best and
Speaker 11: one worst the best.
Speaker 12: Uh.
Speaker 11: Finally took your advice over the years. Took my retired
Speaker 11: naval dad over sixty years to an Army Navy game
Speaker 11: this weekend. And let me tell you that that is
Speaker 11: that is something special. If you don't leave that stadium
Speaker 11: more patriotically when you entered, something is something is wrong
Speaker 11: with you.
Speaker 3: That was awesome.
Speaker 11: So it really made his his weekend. And also I
Speaker 11: got a best with Travis Hunters. As much as I
Speaker 11: don't like beon and what he stands were and how
Speaker 11: he's done it. This guy you said it earlier This
Speaker 11: guy is a complete unicorn and he's going to be
Speaker 11: really good at the next level. And my worst also
Speaker 11: Travis Hunter, Dude, three words for you. Dump your girlfriend.
Speaker 1: I thought you were going to say acknowledge the other
Speaker 1: Heisman candidates in the crowd. That's where I would have gone.
Speaker 1: You gotta you gotta just say something about them.
Speaker 6: That was it.
Speaker 1: That was He had a near perfect speech. But those
Speaker 1: guys are right in front of you. You spent two
Speaker 1: days with them and just acknowledge him. Then he didn't
Speaker 1: do it. When we come back, Mary Danielson on loan
Speaker 1: from CBS, he was on the call for Army Navy.
Speaker 1: Get his thoughts on a variety of things and more
Speaker 1: of your phone calls as well. Back after this.

Speaker 1: Gary Danielson, CBS Sports Lead college football analyst. He was
Speaker 1: on the call with Brad Nessler Army Navy. I wanted
Speaker 1: to have you on biggest reason I wanted to tell
Speaker 1: you did a great job. Wow, it was a great,
Speaker 1: great call with you and Brad, you captured it, and
Speaker 1: I wanted to tell you that, well.
Speaker 6: That's really nute. We got a text not we Brad
Speaker 6: knows these guys better than I do. We got a
Speaker 6: text from coach Kishevski during the game saying how much
Speaker 6: he enjoyed and that we were capturing it. So your
Speaker 6: two great minds really think you liked on this one.
Speaker 1: You know, he probably didn't like the ending though, since
Speaker 1: he went to West Point.
Speaker 6: Hey, you know, there's a lot of pressure doing that game.
Speaker 6: I've done every major you know, rivalry game. There is Texas, Oklahoma, Auburn, Alabama,
Speaker 6: UCLA National Championship. You just want to do it right,
Speaker 6: you know, you know what I mean. I mean, I
Speaker 6: feel such great vibes about those players. They have to
Speaker 6: be full time students, full time you know, cadets, and
Speaker 6: then they got to play football on top of that.
Speaker 6: And the first time I did it, I was really
Speaker 6: nervous and I was doing it with Vern and I
Speaker 6: told Vern, man, Vern, I don't I don't know, you know,
Speaker 6: I just I don't not familiar with this. And we
Speaker 6: interviewed a player the first time I was there day
Speaker 6: and we went and visited and the first player we
Speaker 6: interviewed said, ah, guys, I love you. I grew up
Speaker 6: watching SEC football. We always watch SEC. Here's the only
Speaker 6: thing we asked, don't create us on a curve. Oh man,
Speaker 6: how cool is that?
Speaker 1: You know?
Speaker 6: I mean the guys saying that because those guys love
Speaker 6: playing football.
Speaker 1: But trying to call a perfect game, it's like trying
Speaker 1: to play a perfect game. You can't, right.
Speaker 6: Oh, I messed up, there's no doubt. Yeah. I think
Speaker 6: when Hide and Wright scored, I think I called them
Speaker 6: Eric hiden Wright because Eric heiden You know, I just
Speaker 6: went with the I just flew it together. You know,
Speaker 6: I think brand got it right. I don't think I did.
Speaker 6: But yeah, I get nervous. I don't get nervous for anything.
Speaker 6: I never gotten nervous when I played. I don't get
Speaker 6: nervous for other games. Don't get nervous talking to important people,
Speaker 6: you know. But I want to give the game it's due.
Speaker 6: That's really what I what I try to do.
Speaker 1: And it's the one game. I think. It's a standalone
Speaker 1: game where the pictures are more important than anything that's said,
Speaker 1: because you're trying to capture what you don't need to capture.
Speaker 1: Because we get to see it with you.
Speaker 6: God, I had a big sign on my board, you know,
Speaker 6: my monitor. Don't talk too much because of what you
Speaker 6: just said. You know, our producer, Craig Silver has done
Speaker 6: it forever. You know, I think we've done now sixteen
Speaker 6: of these together. Steve Milton, our director, also directs, you know,
Speaker 6: the Masters Golf, and our crews out there with the
Speaker 6: march on the whole thing, I mean, all of them.
Speaker 6: I love doing this game, but it's a big commitment.
Speaker 6: You know, you've got president coming in. I interviewed President
Speaker 6: Obama and I have in the past interviewed President Elect Trump,
Speaker 6: and then he was in the booth next to us.
Speaker 3: So you can feel it.
Speaker 6: I mean you can feel it. And it looks like,
Speaker 6: you know, Dan, you can help on this.
Speaker 1: They might be losing this standalone part of this game, absolutely.
Speaker 13: I know.
Speaker 6: And that's why I was wanting to knock on the
Speaker 6: bulletproof glass next to Trump and say, hey, why don't
Speaker 6: you just pass the law. It seems like you can
Speaker 6: do this, that there can be no other game in
Speaker 6: the afternoon but this game Army Navy.
Speaker 1: That's a good idea. But you're right because of the
Speaker 1: extended playoffs. I think that they're going to encroach on
Speaker 1: Army and Navy. This might be the last weekend, the
Speaker 1: last year that it's a standalone game. Let me ask
Speaker 1: you about the other news on Saturday, Travis Hunter winning
Speaker 1: the Heisman. But if you're a GM or a coach,
Speaker 1: how are you using him in the NFL?
Speaker 6: I would use them the way they used dim back
Speaker 6: the way when he played, you know, I would use
Speaker 6: them on things that he does well. He seems to
Speaker 6: handle fifty to fifty balls really well. He plays defense well.
Speaker 6: I don't see why he can't in modern football play
Speaker 6: fifteen and snaps in the game at corner or covering
Speaker 6: the slot or more excuse me, I wanted to flip it,
Speaker 6: you know, play regular defense. I'd use him at corner
Speaker 6: and then play maybe ten twelve plays on offense when
Speaker 6: you need him in the red zone. He seems to
Speaker 6: be up for it. And I don't see why. First
Speaker 6: of all, more players can't do that if you use
Speaker 6: them smartly. And I think you know, his coach was
Speaker 6: the best at it back in the day.
Speaker 1: With the playoffs going on and the transfer portal coinciding
Speaker 1: with this, how did the grown ups not see that
Speaker 1: this could be a problem. Well, you saw I.
Speaker 6: Heard you talking to Russ Tucker, you know, with broke Travula.
Speaker 6: I don't quite understand the whole mechanics of why Bo
Speaker 6: has to leave the team, Why he can't handle the portal,
Speaker 6: tell the coach or team that wants them. You know,
Speaker 6: we don't know who it is. It might be IU,
Speaker 6: for all we know where he's going to go, right,
Speaker 6: it might be an important team down the line. I
Speaker 6: don't know why he can't stay on the team and say, coach,
Speaker 6: I would never quit on you, But I'm not saying
Speaker 6: he's quitting. I understand he's in it, but I don't
Speaker 6: know why he can't finish it out as the backup quarterback.
Speaker 6: I mean, I don't see why he can't finish this game.
Speaker 6: There's been plenty of pro players who finished out their
Speaker 6: season knowing that they were going to be free agents
Speaker 6: the next year. I don't see what the big deal is.
Speaker 6: Is it the fact that he has to sign an nil?
Speaker 6: Now I would look right at the coach and go,
Speaker 6: why would you want me? If I'm willing to leave
Speaker 6: the team I am on now? A team that can
Speaker 6: win the championship. You shouldn't want me if I want
Speaker 6: to do that. So I don't quite get it. I
Speaker 6: think to ask them you quarterback has decided he's going
Speaker 6: to be in the portal and he's playing it. Ohio
Speaker 6: statas seven guys in the portal that are playing in
Speaker 6: the game. I don't know why bo has to leave.
Speaker 6: And he's a good player, by the way, yeah, a
Speaker 6: very good player. But I don't know why he has
Speaker 6: to leave now. I'm sure if his parents were here
Speaker 6: or they could explain it, but I don't understand it.
Speaker 1: You bring up a great point. If if I'm transferring
Speaker 1: to your school and you want me to give up
Speaker 1: on my team who's in the playoffs and could win
Speaker 1: a couple of games, is that the kind of guy
Speaker 1: that you want on your team. But I was told, though, Gary,
Speaker 1: these coaches are saying, we don't want you to risk
Speaker 1: getting hurt.
Speaker 6: Too bad, too bad. You know, I get hurt, I
Speaker 6: get hurt. I mean I can get hurt in spring
Speaker 6: ball with you. I don't get it. That's I hope
Speaker 6: that that's the advice I'd be giving my son. But again,
Speaker 6: there's always more things. Remember early in the year we
Speaker 6: were talking about the UNLV quarterback, you know, quit on it,
Speaker 6: you know, and that was more complicated than the story
Speaker 6: that we were led to believe, you know. I mean
Speaker 6: his head coach at holy Cross came up and said
Speaker 6: he turned down half a million to go to UNLV
Speaker 6: and then, you know, so there's more pages all the
Speaker 6: time than we know. But I don't know. I love
Speaker 6: college football. It's funny. I got my pre new jersey
Speaker 6: in the back, you know, I don't my team didn't
Speaker 6: do so good this year. But I wasn't great in college.
Speaker 6: I never really caught it.
Speaker 11: You know.
Speaker 6: I wasn't as disciplined as I was when I got
Speaker 6: in the NFL. I wasn't as disciplined when I had
Speaker 6: a family and I knew kids are on the way.
Speaker 6: I was much more dedicated, you know, to it. But
Speaker 6: I hope he doesn't regret this, because I've regretted the
Speaker 6: way I played. You know, I let a lot of
Speaker 6: my still feel like I let a lot of my
Speaker 6: teammates down at Purdue, and I regretted that my whole life.
Speaker 1: Give me the surprise this opening weekend of the college
Speaker 1: football playoffs, I think you had a.
Speaker 6: Shot against Notre Dame. I know they're good. You know
Speaker 6: I've seen I you are close. We saw Notre Dame
Speaker 6: against USC. This is not a great USC football team
Speaker 6: and that was not a great home field advantage. They
Speaker 6: played them pretty good, you know, an interception at the
Speaker 6: last end.
Speaker 3: I like that.
Speaker 6: I think SMU has a little bit of speed that
Speaker 6: might give Penn State some problems. What I don't like
Speaker 6: about it is I thought Boise State. I mean, the
Speaker 6: charm of the basketball tournament is the little guys play
Speaker 6: in the first round, This whole by thing of SMU
Speaker 6: and Boise State. Wouldn't you have loved to see Boise
Speaker 6: State make it? And their reward is they get a
Speaker 6: home game against Alabama on the blue turf in fifteen
Speaker 6: degree weather. Isn't that the way this thing should have been? Listen,
Speaker 6: I know the people that put this stuff together, they're
Speaker 6: great character people. But when it was put together, the
Speaker 6: PAC twelve was alive. This thing kind of got out
Speaker 6: of whack here. They'll fix it, you know, in arrears,
Speaker 6: but but it'll get better. It's way better than it
Speaker 6: was before. But I got a question for you. You're
Speaker 6: always good at throwings at me. If you're an IU fan,
Speaker 6: would you rather have a win over Notre Dame or
Speaker 6: IU basketball makes the finals in the NCAA Tournament this year?
Speaker 1: Well, knowing the state of Indiana, I would say making
Speaker 1: it to the nc DOUBLEA title game in basketball.
Speaker 6: I was kidding the IU fans when I did a
Speaker 6: radio show that until this year, the IU football fans
Speaker 6: were not even aware that there was an ESPN ranking
Speaker 6: show all year during the season until this year, and
Speaker 6: they said, oh my god, they do this every week.
Speaker 6: We didn't know that.
Speaker 1: So well, you could dine out on beating Notre Dame
Speaker 1: for a long long.
Speaker 6: Time, that's for sure. And they've got a good team.
Speaker 6: They're a really good team. They didn't you know, that
Speaker 6: was the big lights against Ohio State was a little
Speaker 6: bit different for them. But you know, I think they're
Speaker 6: going to play well in this football game.
Speaker 1: What if Ohio State loses?
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, I really I really think early in
Speaker 6: that game, when they got their quarterback nicked early in
Speaker 6: that game, I wonder if that affected their play calling
Speaker 6: because it just didn't make any sense to me running
Speaker 6: right into the teeth of the Michigan football team like that.
Speaker 6: And I don't know if Howard and I got tackled early.
Speaker 6: I just wondered if that threw off the way they played.
Speaker 6: I think they're going to be ready. I don't know
Speaker 6: if you've heard us late in the game. One of
Speaker 6: the things that Brad and I had talked about was
Speaker 6: at the end of the year of the flag planning.
Speaker 6: And I kind of take that flag planning two ways.
Speaker 6: You know. One, it's the coach's job to say this
Speaker 6: ain't happening. If we win, we're we're going to win
Speaker 6: with class. But if I was on the other side,
Speaker 6: if I was at State or and all right, you
Speaker 6: beat as parents square, but that doesn't mean you get
Speaker 6: to do that to our football feel. That's a whole
Speaker 6: new game. You get the w and you get the
Speaker 6: bragging rights, but you don't plant your flag in the
Speaker 6: middle of the field. And that's why we ended up
Speaker 6: our game talking about one thing we know about Army Navy.
Speaker 6: They're not worried about at the end of the game
Speaker 6: planning flags of their school because they respect the other
Speaker 6: side too much. The only flag they're going to plant
Speaker 6: is the flag of the United States of America. And
Speaker 6: I think that's what that game was all about.
Speaker 1: Best college player you ever saw.
Speaker 6: The most dominating player I saw early was Calvin Johnson.
Speaker 6: I saw him as first game as a true freshman,
Speaker 6: and I went, how does anybody ever stop this guy?
Speaker 1: I was like, it's impossible, and they're not even a
Speaker 1: passing offense at Georgia exactly.
Speaker 6: At Georgia Tech. And I think he made a diving
Speaker 6: catch early, although I will have to say Larry Fitzgerald
Speaker 6: was right there as a freshman too, but I just
Speaker 6: thought he was an amazing body type. And then I
Speaker 6: think his second catch, he was running full speed and
Speaker 6: he reached back with one hand and caught it, and
Speaker 6: I couldn't believe that as well. But I think those
Speaker 6: you know, i've heard you talking about the SEC not
Speaker 6: involved here. I think they might want to bring me back, Dan.
Speaker 6: I got there in two thousand and six, so the
Speaker 6: year before I got there in five, they didn't have anybody,
Speaker 6: and I leave this year they don't have anybody. And
Speaker 6: the nine of the eighteen years I was there, they
Speaker 6: had the Heisman Trophy winners. So they had a pretty
Speaker 6: good run with championships and Heisman guys. So I leave
Speaker 6: one year and all falls apart, you.
Speaker 13: Know, So.
Speaker 6: There was a run of them there. But I tell
Speaker 6: you one guy who dominated like I've never seen before
Speaker 6: with the team he had, Cam Newton. Yeah, I couldn't
Speaker 6: believe how he played in the SEC. And I don't
Speaker 6: think there was only one other player on that team
Speaker 6: that even played NFL football.
Speaker 1: Randy Moss stood out when oh I covered him too
Speaker 1: when I watched Marshall, and we hope Randy's on the
Speaker 1: on the road to recover. I just remember he caught
Speaker 1: a couple of passes over the middle and he was gone.
Speaker 1: And and you know, you can say, well he played
Speaker 1: at Marshall, but he still stood out. He was unique.
Speaker 1: And I still don't think we've ever had a wide
Speaker 1: receiver like Randy Moss in the NFL.
Speaker 6: That's pretty true. His top end speed, well you couldn't overthrow.
Speaker 6: They're just you couldn't do it, you know. So, I
Speaker 6: mean I covered a lot of good players, you know.
Speaker 6: I remember the days when Tom was Brady was playing
Speaker 6: at Michigan. He was so upset that you know, he
Speaker 6: was I'm the starter. I mean, his competitive instincts in
Speaker 6: his clutch play at Michigan, especially with the way he
Speaker 6: was being you know, rotated in there was something to
Speaker 6: see but man, and he had the chip on his shoulder,
Speaker 6: and seems like he's still has loved the way he competes.
Speaker 6: I mean, I've had a great run here, you know.
Speaker 6: I mean the first game I ever did was ty
Speaker 6: Dentmer beating the Miami number one Miami Hurricanes. I got
Speaker 6: to play with Bernie Cozar, you know, and that group
Speaker 6: of guys in Cleveland, played with Billy Simms with my
Speaker 6: running back, and now we've got the broadcast with Hall
Speaker 6: of Favors, Brent and Verne and now Nessler been pretty
Speaker 6: good for an undrafted free agent, that's for sure. O. J.
Speaker 1: Simpsons the first player I saw who was different when
Speaker 1: he was at USC. Like I, you know, I grew
Speaker 1: up an Ohio State fan, knew they were going to
Speaker 1: always lose when they went to the Rose Bowl, and
Speaker 1: to see Oj it was just him and Gail Sayers
Speaker 1: are the two guys. Jim Brown ran differently, but Gail
Speaker 1: Sayirs and OJ Simpson that ability to cut and glide.
Speaker 1: I'd never seen that before. Those were the first two
Speaker 1: guys that really hit me back in the late sixties.
Speaker 6: Tim great Ones, I'll tell you I was not aware
Speaker 6: by the way that in your Heisman criteria voting is
Speaker 6: taking a hit was one of the things because I
Speaker 6: can show you a lot of my taking hits over
Speaker 6: the years. Lawrence Taylor threw me back five yards out
Speaker 6: of play, you know, I mean it was he was incredible.
Speaker 6: He might have been the best player I ever played against,
Speaker 6: was Lawrence Taylor. So I was We actually had a tip.
Speaker 6: It's funny. I did a ratio show with Kirk Gibson
Speaker 6: and he said that they always knew that Dwight Gooden
Speaker 6: tipped his pitches and they still couldn't hit him. When
Speaker 6: Lawrence Taylor was going to rush or drop, we would
Speaker 6: shift our protection and couldn't block, you know. So it's
Speaker 6: those guys are special, that's for sure.
Speaker 1: Again, pass it on to Brad when you talk to him.
Speaker 1: It was just wonderful. You guys did a great job.
Speaker 6: And yeah, it was wasn't just us. I mean we
Speaker 6: had seventy five people that work really hard, veteran people.
Speaker 1: And you can name all of them if you want
Speaker 1: to run down all seventy of them.
Speaker 11: You know, they.
Speaker 6: All will watch your show. And Dan, thanks for having
Speaker 6: me on. It's been great.
Speaker 1: Thank you, buddy. That's Gary Danielson, CBS Sports Lead College
Speaker 1: football Analyst, played at Purdue, played for the Lions and
Speaker 1: the Browns. He's been doing a long long time. It
Speaker 1: felt like we had him on during during Johnny Manziel's career.
Speaker 1: It was like every Monday, it'd be like, get Gary on.
Speaker 1: He just called Manziel because Manziel to you know, lead
Speaker 1: the sec and rushing as and also do what he did.
Speaker 1: Pretty remarkable. All right, let me take a break, last
Speaker 1: call for phone calls, what we learn, what's in store tomorrow.
Speaker 13: Right after this, be sure to catch the live edition
Speaker 13: of The Dan Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern
Speaker 13: six am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1: Gary Danielson, CBS Lead College Football Analyst, was talking about
Speaker 1: why can't you wait playing these playoff games and then
Speaker 1: transfer to your other's school. Well, the problem is these
Speaker 1: coaches aren't waiting. They're trying to fill up slots, that's
Speaker 1: all this is. So if you want to make the commitment,
Speaker 1: you got to go now. You can't go, hey, all
Speaker 1: transfer unless you're really a high end player, And chances
Speaker 1: are high end players aren't transferring because they're high end players.
Speaker 1: So it's almost like a limited time only it's like
Speaker 1: a Black Friday sale. Hey do you want to come here?
Speaker 1: You got to decide, Bob, and then you got to
Speaker 1: talk to your parents. That's the problem.
Speaker 6: And then.
Speaker 1: You got to trust them that that's still going to
Speaker 1: be there after you've played. And as Gary was pointing out,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of schools that are going to lose
Speaker 1: players that are in the transfer portal right now, or
Speaker 1: at least you can go in the portal. Maybe you're
Speaker 1: not going to get the offer you want, and then
Speaker 1: you pull your name back out. I think there was
Speaker 1: concerns that quinn Ewers would transfer. He wants to play
Speaker 1: another year. Well, imagine that news to arch Manning. Because
Speaker 1: if quinn Ewers comes back to Texas because he's not
Speaker 1: going to be a first round draft pick and I
Speaker 1: think wanting to play another year, Now, do you have
Speaker 1: to transfer? Would Steve sarksi and want to push you
Speaker 1: towards transferring because he wants to play arch Manning, yes,
Speaker 1: Pauline Ohio State.
Speaker 4: He played there a little bit before.
Speaker 1: When he did he did, I don't know they want
Speaker 1: him back.
Speaker 4: Well, someone's leaving Texas football.
Speaker 1: Well, McCord at Syracuse, was at Ohio State. I think
Speaker 1: he led the nation in the passing yards. Yeah, git
Speaker 1: over like four thousand yards or something. All right, James
Speaker 1: in Virginia, Hi, James, welcome back.

Speaker 16: across the board is just going to be exciting. I
Speaker 16: don't know how if there's ever been a year where
Speaker 16: the number one seed was up for grabs in both
Speaker 16: conferences this late in the year. I'll tell you what.
Speaker 16: I will take Oregon over Notre Dame in the college
Speaker 16: football playoffs. And I got a part of the faith bet.

Speaker 1: Yeah, they do?
