That's probably my favorite one to say 56 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 1: the greatest grassroots movement since jazz, because it's just improv. 57 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: We're just going you know what I'm saying, We've got 58 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: we had an idea of where we want to go 59 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 1: with it, but we just go. You do joy an occasion, 60 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: yas flute, A little yas flute. Yeah, I'm really not 61 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,919 Speaker 1: prepared at all. Hold only absolute out. All right, I 62 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,799 Speaker 1: want to start today's show. This is a great This 63 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 1: is such a great debate for me because again, two 64 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 1: things can be true at once. You can have logical 65 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: and rational thoughts on both sides. For some reason, society 66 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 1: today we don't think that it's either gonna be one 67 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 1: way is right and one way is wrong. There can't 68 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: be any logical or rational both sided arguments when it 69 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,799 Speaker 1: comes to this. But who will have more success over 70 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: the next five years, Georgia or Alabama. Here's the way 71 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,799 Speaker 1: that I look at it. And I am not the 72 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: type to bet against Nick Saban, But when I'm scanning 73 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: for the next five years and I think, what's gonna 74 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: happen Saturday with George and Alabama's gonna happen with Georgia 75 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 1: getting over that hump against Alabama? No pun intended, well, 76 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 1: it kind of intended. I've got to go Georgia. You 77 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: know Nick eventually is going to retire. Will it be 78 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: another five years? Wouldn't surprise me. If you went six 79 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 1: or he went seven, it wouldn't surprise me. But eventually 80 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 1: Nick is on his way out unless they hook him 81 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: up to the robot. Like we've talked about Sabertron three thousand. 82 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 1: You never know, Elon Musk doing a lot of interesting things. Bezos, 83 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: those billionaires, you never know. But Kirby's really just getting cooking. 84 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 1: Kirby has turned Georgia into the monster that it is 85 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: a team that I am looking at to win the 86 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: national championship. That I've said during the spring during the fall, 87 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 1: or spring to the summer during the fall, and I 88 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 1: look at the way they're recruiting, and somebody has got 89 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 1: to take the mantle when Saban leaves. Because I'll give 90 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: you a hint, the transition of power is never as 91 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: easy as it seems when you're on top. Look at 92 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: midterms in the elections. You win the election, then get 93 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:34,280 Speaker 1: destroyed in the midterms. The transition is never as easy 94 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,600 Speaker 1: when you're at the top. George is climbing to get 95 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: to the top. And the hardest part that Nick Saban's 96 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,359 Speaker 1: having to deal with is staying at the top, keeping 97 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 1: everybody at the top. Every dynasty falls, the Ming dynasty, 98 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 1: the Patriots. Go back through history, every dynasty falls, there's 99 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:01,119 Speaker 1: always somebody making that next power of grab. Georgia looks 100 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: a lot like old school Alabama when they were just 101 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: destroying people each year. This year they're starting to look 102 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 1: like that team. We know they have the athletes, we 103 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 1: know they have the personnel. But Kirby is an unbelievable 104 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: coach like coach Saban is. Dan Landing is an unbelievable 105 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 1: DC like Kirby Smart was for coach Saban. Kirby is 106 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 1: building it the way that Saban built it, and he's 107 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 1: looking to take over the mantel. What's the one mountain 108 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: he has got to get over. They've climbed kill Him 109 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 1: and Jaro Hell, they've climbed Vesuvius Dodge in the lava, 110 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: but they haven't climbed Everest yet. Saturday, they get to 111 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 1: climb Everest and once you get to the top, you 112 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,480 Speaker 1: stick that flag in the ground. You know you can 113 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 1: do it. Then you chase the replication and Kirby Smarts 114 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,920 Speaker 1: is a good enough recruiter. George is a good enough 115 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: place They'll always be able to hire great, great coaches, 116 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 1: They'll always have great talent in state and around. George 117 00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: is here to stay because Kirby Smarts staying at George Stability, stability, stability. 118 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: What do we not seeing the college game right now? 119 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,280 Speaker 1: A lot of busy coaches going, excuse me, from one 120 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 1: place to the other, one brand name to the other. 121 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: Kirby Smart's not going anywhere. He has built the machine. 122 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,039 Speaker 1: Reminds me of that movie when they're in Bletchley Park 123 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: trying to decipher the German codes in World War Two 124 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: and finally they build the machine that can decipher the codes. 125 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 1: You just let the machine work. Now, not that you 126 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: don't still try hardenness, that and the other. But when 127 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,719 Speaker 1: Kirby and them walk into a high school with that logo, 128 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:39,280 Speaker 1: deals almost done. It's a business decision. Not saying that 129 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,600 Speaker 1: Alabama isn't not saying that Alabama is not going to 130 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,719 Speaker 1: continue to be really good. But over the next five years, 131 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 1: Kirby's going to become the mantle holder in the best conference, 132 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,719 Speaker 1: in the best region for college football in the country. 133 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,280 Speaker 1: So when I'm looking five years down the road, Nick 134 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: Saban Swansong on his way out unbelievable career, greatest of 135 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: all time. Goat, well, guess what Kirby's smart. That was 136 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 1: his OBI one. Nick Saban was Kirby's OBI one. And 137 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 1: now you look around the rest of the conference. You 138 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 1: got Anakin over there at A and M trying to 139 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 1: build his went to the dark side. We thought Lincoln 140 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: Riley was gonna be Heath Ledger, turns out he's Harvey 141 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 1: Dent went out. West College football is Look, Georgia wins 142 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,239 Speaker 1: it this year like I think they're going to. I'm 143 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 1: telling you guys, Georgia is about to take over. You 144 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: want to know why, because they can. That's why when 145 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: I look at Brian Kelly taking that job in the 146 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: SEC at LSU, I respect it. At Brian Hartson taking 147 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: that job at Auburn, I respect it because they know 148 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 1: it's not a hidden secret. They know George's next up. 149 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: And I'll have a bunch of A and M fans, 150 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 1: a bunch of Alabama fans that are pissed off because 151 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: they and M is trying to climb the mountain two. 152 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 1: But y'all haven't. And I know you beat Alabama in 153 00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 1: the regular season, but when it comes down to postseason stuff. 154 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 1: I know Georgia hasn't won the Natty Sys nineteen eighty, 155 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: but they've been closer than anybody else really that hasn't 156 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 1: won it. All it takes is one what is it 157 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: on Little Giants? Nine times out of ten team destroys us? 158 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: But that one time you always remember that one time, 159 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 1: and that one time starts Saturday, and then you turn 160 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 1: that one time into two times. You give Kirby smart that, Ammo, 161 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: you give Kirby smart that we beat Bama bullet in 162 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: the championship game. It's like hitting a werewolf with a 163 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 1: silver bullet, going down like a sweet muffin. Nick Saban 164 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 1: on his way out eventually, because again, guy's time is time. 165 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 1: He's not Benjamin Button. I'm sorry, he's not getting younger. Eventually, 166 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 1: Saban will be gone. Kirby is next up. But the 167 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:47,559 Speaker 1: biggest question is who does Bama bringing after that? I 168 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: still say it's Mario crystal Ball. But even if it's Mario, 169 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna replicate what Nick Saban's done. 170 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody will replicate what Nick Saban has 171 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: been able to do. But George is gonna get damn 172 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:02,439 Speaker 1: close they're gonna get They've got it, checks every box, 173 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,719 Speaker 1: every box. And you're in the East and I know 174 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,439 Speaker 1: Tennessee's coming up, but George is not worried about that. 175 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: Ran through them like a wet paper bag. Kentucky doing 176 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: a lot better. George is not stunting that. George is 177 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 1: gonna run the East. Florida hiring by Napier. Great, It's 178 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 1: gonna take time, and good for Billy Napi. You want 179 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 1: to talk about guy that's that's not afraid. Florida's right 180 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 1: next door. That's a rivalry game. Billy's not scared, but 181 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 1: Billy knows he knows the battle. So over the next 182 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: five years, give me Georgia because I think Kirby, to 183 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 1: quote a very smart man on a very popular TV show, 184 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 1: I think he just figured out blues clues. Well, originally 185 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 1: we were thrown around who has the higher ceiling, right, 186 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: and the obvious answer has to be Georgia because Alabama 187 00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 1: sort of hit that ceiling. When you've won a national 188 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,320 Speaker 1: title every other year basically for a decade, you've kind 189 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 1: of hit that seiling. This is okay, Well, who's going 190 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:06,559 Speaker 1: to have more success over the next five years. I 191 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: still think you would be a smart man to say Georgia. 192 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: But here's what I'm saying. You said it earlier. Nick 193 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,680 Speaker 1: Saban is the greatest coach of all time, right okay? 194 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 1: And I remember five, six, seven years ago, right whatever, 195 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 1: tom Brady would run out and he'd throw that first 196 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 1: interception of the season, Max Kellerman and the crew. Everyone 197 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 1: wanted to be the first to say tom Brady's done. 198 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 1: Tom Brady's finished. Right, Well, he's proven it so much 199 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: that everyone's kind of quieted down. You know why, because 200 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 1: you don't make money betting against the best. Nick Saban's 201 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 1: not going to go away quietly. So I think that 202 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,439 Speaker 1: Georgia is a safe bet here to say with what 203 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,079 Speaker 1: Kirby has built, because like you said, Kirby smart's not 204 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: going anywhere and this dynasty is just at the precipice 205 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 1: of his creation. But the best don't go away quietly. 206 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: And I don't see Nick Saban has had his last 207 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: say yet. Yeah, Alabama has sat in their castle, They've 208 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:54,559 Speaker 1: looked over all the land. All of a sudden, Kirby 209 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 1: brought his army a bits a siege. They're shooting firing 210 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 1: castle and he's brought his army before he's brought his 211 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:05,599 Speaker 1: army a couple of times. True, what happened? Not this 212 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 1: army protect that didn't bring a senior Jordan Davis. Yeah, 213 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: Jordan Davises aren't just walking around. You know what I'm saying. 214 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:17,719 Speaker 1: There's walking around. I can't. I don't know. You've seen 215 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 1: Barry Alexander. Yeah, but it's still you can't replicate Jordan Davis. 216 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:23,840 Speaker 1: I don't know you've seen Bary Alexander as big as 217 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 1: he is, as fast as he's, as big as Jordan 218 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 1: Davis is, as as he's in high school. You think 219 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 1: he's gonna better than Jorge Davis. Probably? Well, if they 220 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 1: if they have that, the congrats. But I'm not betting 221 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 1: it's Nick Saban maybe the five years after the Now 222 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:39,679 Speaker 1: you got win on Saturday, I would say Georgia, but 223 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 1: you were betting against one off one. I have six 224 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: ounces of champs and Kurby starts to win three verse 225 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,679 Speaker 1: Nick stament, so he beats him one time and then okay, 226 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 1: it's Georgia. But you said you'd never bet against six Saban. 227 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: They're playing Saturday. You said georgiad win. He said the 228 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 1: next five years, correct, So next five years you're taking 229 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: Bama to win more Natties in Georgia. I'm taking Bama. Yes, 230 00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:00,199 Speaker 1: when Nick Saban retires, Kurby smarts your time. Like we 231 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 1: just said, they're just only ten months off winning a 232 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 1: national programs should not reload this quickly said about Ohio State. 233 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 1: Don't get this twisted. Yes, this is a high class 234 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: problem in Ohio State. Alabama the most high classes and 235 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 1: George is about to be in that tear. This isn't 236 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: a Texas Tech or West Virginia who you got out 237 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 1: the next you said about LSU Georgia fans are about 238 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 1: to be like what you said against LSU fans. They're 239 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:33,199 Speaker 1: about to get a little taste and they're from the 240 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 1: key from the cup, and you don't want another. That's 241 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. The first time, like you, they drank 242 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 1: water back in the days, the first time they drank wine, 243 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:44,079 Speaker 1: someone's like, get that water shit out of here. Excuse 244 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:45,959 Speaker 1: my leg to say that's terrible. We'll just drink that. 245 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 1: But you know you said something Nick Saban is the 246 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: greatest coach of all time. I agree. I don't think 247 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 1: it'll be replicated, but what goes up, I know must 248 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 1: come down. Don't go wait quietly? Who's the greatest president? All? 249 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 1: Go away? Who Abe Lincoln? George Washington? He's coming on 250 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:05,679 Speaker 1: the show? Yeah, which we reach out that Lincoln. We're 251 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 1: gonna find out he's coming on. That's great. But they 252 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: died like three a long time ago. But they don't 253 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 1: go away quietly. They don't is not going away quietly. No, 254 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,440 Speaker 1: he won't go away quietly. But Nick Saban said something 255 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:18,679 Speaker 1: that I respect and got a world of respect for 256 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 1: Nick Saban. But he said something to that I thought 257 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 1: really rang true. He said, they asked him, when are 258 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 1: you going to retire? When I feel like I'm not 259 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: as effective as I can be. We've seen guys Linger, 260 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 1: Joe Paw and all these other guys. I think legitimately 261 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,719 Speaker 1: when Nick Saban says, you know what I've done all 262 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 1: I can do, I'm not as effective as I have been. 263 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 1: For a multitude of reasons, I think he's the type 264 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,199 Speaker 1: because he loves the players. He holds himself to a 265 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 1: higher standard than anybody, and if he feels like he's 266 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 1: not performing, how could he ask that of his players 267 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,560 Speaker 1: to operate and do the routine stuff, and that amount 268 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 1: of time and that amount of sacrifice. Nick Saban's that 269 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,080 Speaker 1: type of guy. I mean, you saw him the other 270 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 1: day in the Coaches Show. He's a player's coach. Do 271 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 1: you want to know why? Because the players play. And 272 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:08,439 Speaker 1: I think it's different betting on Nick Saban than it 273 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 1: is Tom Brady because at the end of the day, 274 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 1: Tom Brady is going to affect the game way more 275 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,959 Speaker 1: than Nick Saban is. Tom Brady affects the game way 276 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 1: more than Bill Belichick does because he's out there throwing it. 277 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 1: Tom Brady is a coach that is playing. Yeah, Tom 278 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: Brady is Jackie Moon on steroids. Yeah. So when we 279 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: make those comparisons, I would rather make the Belichick Saban 280 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 1: comparison than compared coaches and players, just because I know 281 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 1: what your saying is. For the analogy, I know what 282 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 1: kind of You're not supposed to play quarterback in the 283 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 1: NFL until your forty five. You're really not supposed to 284 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 1: make it to thirty. Everyone wanted to be the first. No, 285 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 1: he threw an interception this year, he's done. Yeah, well, 286 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 1: you know, Peyton tried, but they were putting his neck 287 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: back together with silly tiger woods. He's done. We got 288 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 1: him another master. Roger Fetter got him another one, you 289 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like when we're talking about the 290 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 1: greatest of all time, they don't go away quietly. No, 291 00:14:57,320 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: And look, it's a great argument. And like I said, 292 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 1: for everybody, this fe out there's logical and rational, and yes, 293 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 1: this is a high class It might be two to 294 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 1: three like national championship. Oh, this is the this is 295 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: the Rocky vers Apollo. Sure, I mean, yeah, this isn't 296 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 1: you know Johnny Redstone's fighting, you know, Tommy ticklefeed David Goliath. 297 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 1: This is Goliath versus Goliath. That's exactly right, god Zilla 298 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 1: verse King Kong. We can do this all day. I 299 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 1: will literally do this all day. Uh So again I'm 300 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 1: saying Georgia, you're saying, are you saying bamacone? Yes, put 301 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: me on that one. Okay, Blaine, of course, give me 302 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 1: a statement. Oh good, I love dying on hills alone. Sich. 303 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 1: I'm still alive, all right speaking, I'm still alive. Auburn 304 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator change a lot of names me and thrown 305 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 1: around players being in the portal bow knicks, Is he coming? 306 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 1: Is he going? How does Mike Bobo affect that? And 307 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 1: is Derek Mason safe or is he trying to blend 308 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: into the wall in Hide every time Brian Harson walks 309 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 1: by him. After firing Mike Bobo, Justin hook in Auburn 310 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 1: Live three, he's going to talk about it with us next, 311 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 1: all right, Excited to bring in the guy who broke 312 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 1: the story about Auburn offensive coordinator Mike Bobo and not returning. 313 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 1: Justin Holkinson from Auburn Live does a great job over there. 314 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 1: If you follow Auburn, you need to make sure you're subscribed. 315 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,160 Speaker 1: That's the best site to do it. With our buddy 316 00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 1: Jay Lee and Cole Pinkston over there. Okay, I appreciate 317 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,720 Speaker 1: you coming on, man, Yeah, absolutely, thanks for having me. So, 318 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 1: just off the rib, how surprised are you that Auburn 319 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 1: moved on from Mike Bobo. Not surprised, I mean, obviously 320 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 1: anytime there's a there's a change of coordinator, if there's 321 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: like a level of you know, there's a level of oh, 322 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 1: you know, they actually did it. But not surprised. I 323 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 1: mean we were talking about Bobo. I mean in September 324 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 1: on our board, we were talking about maybe Bobo only 325 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 1: being there one year because you know, we were hearing 326 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 1: just personality fit it wasn't great. Those talks sort of 327 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: died down. I think as Auburn played well in mid season, 328 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 1: Auburn was doing some good things on offense, kind of 329 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:05,000 Speaker 1: died down a little bit. But then four straight losses 330 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 1: and you score i think fifteen points in the last 331 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 1: five games in the second half total, and so that 332 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:14,480 Speaker 1: just that's not acceptable for for harsening them, and so 333 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 1: not surprise, not surprised that he's uh, that he's gone. 334 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,639 Speaker 1: I think what this shows you is and it may 335 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 1: sound you know when I say it, you're gonna be like, well, 336 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: of course m Brian Harrison and that staff want to 337 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,119 Speaker 1: win right now. And you might be like, well, of 338 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,639 Speaker 1: course they do. Well, what I mean is, when you 339 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 1: start a program, generally you've got a little bit of 340 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:37,440 Speaker 1: a honeymoon period. You can build it. You can you know, 341 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:39,120 Speaker 1: you've got a little bit of leeway. Let go six 342 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 1: and six first year. It's you know, Auburn's a little different. 343 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:43,359 Speaker 1: But I mean, Harsen than them are just they're just 344 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 1: not They're trying to build it, but they're trying to 345 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 1: win right now at the same time, and they're just 346 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,120 Speaker 1: not going to whether it was the receiver coach being 347 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,880 Speaker 1: let go four games in or Bobo. I mean they've 348 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 1: got an offensive lineman commit this, the son of Mike Bobo. 349 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 1: And basically Harson's like if it costs us him, it 350 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,640 Speaker 1: costs him, Like who cares. So they're just, yeah, it's 351 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 1: kind of win right now. Man. They're trying to make 352 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 1: decisions and pull the trigger and make them quick. And 353 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:08,880 Speaker 1: you maybe didn't see that under Gus, and maybe Gus 354 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,199 Speaker 1: couldn't have The things are a little bit different right 355 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 1: now with Harson to be able to just pull the 356 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:16,359 Speaker 1: plug that quickly. Yeah, and you know, Mike Bubbo is 357 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 1: not a very creative offensive coordinatory. He's kind of like 358 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 1: the journeyman pitcher in the Major League Baseball that you know, 359 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 1: he throws ninety you know, got some good off speed. 360 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:26,479 Speaker 1: He's a guy you got to sign late to eat 361 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 1: a couple innings. That's kind of been him. They need 362 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 1: to bring in a guy in my opinion that you know, 363 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 1: and we'll talk about candidates, and shouldn't be an older guy, 364 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:35,440 Speaker 1: shouldn't be a younger guy, guy with some innovativeness. When 365 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:38,360 Speaker 1: when you're not able, it's easy when you're at Georgia 366 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:40,320 Speaker 1: and you can just run straight through people and it 367 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,639 Speaker 1: opens up the play action or the way Bamma used 368 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 1: to do it, when you just roll over people and 369 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 1: the boot nobody covers the cross or Auburn couldn't do that. 370 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:48,680 Speaker 1: He had to find ways to be able to score 371 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,439 Speaker 1: against good defenses outside of the realm of the normal 372 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 1: bread and butter and outside of you know, a fake 373 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 1: toss counter and stuff like that. He really is not 374 00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,200 Speaker 1: able to reach down in the bag. You go back 375 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,639 Speaker 1: to the Penn State game, you know, when when offensively 376 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 1: they weren't very good, the Georgia game, and again, nobody's 377 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:05,639 Speaker 1: been great against Georgia, but it seems to be in 378 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:07,639 Speaker 1: the biggest games when they played against a defense that 379 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:09,440 Speaker 1: was worth their salt and a little bit of that 380 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,880 Speaker 1: as personnel, he wasn't able to outthink the other side 381 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 1: enough to score enough points to win. Go back to 382 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 1: the LSU game. It's not like they scored forty five points. 383 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:19,359 Speaker 1: I mean bo Niggs had to pull a Willy Wonka 384 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:22,920 Speaker 1: slash Hudini to be able to score touchdowns. So to me, 385 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: I think it was a was a good move. My question, you, Hoke, 386 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 1: is you know Derek Mason, how safe is he that's 387 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 1: a good question. At the moment um, you know, I couldn't. 388 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: I couldn't tell you. I think he's I think he 389 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 1: was on the high like I said, Bobo and Derek 390 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 1: Mason would be on the hot seat. I told our 391 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 1: people that, um, and I thought they deserved to be 392 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:46,120 Speaker 1: UM mean, I thought they were like okay at times 393 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 1: and there were times when they weren't, and they probably 394 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:49,800 Speaker 1: won't ho. My thing is this, My thing is this. 395 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:52,560 Speaker 1: Here's what worries me, okay about Derek Mason. Gary Gary 396 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,879 Speaker 1: Danielson said it during the game before he went to 397 00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 1: Derek Mason before and said are you gonna rush through 398 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 1: you this game? And Derek Mason lad. Then it was like, no, 399 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 1: we can't do that anymore. If it took this long 400 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 1: for you to figure that out, that isn't a that's 401 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,400 Speaker 1: not trying to go steal the Declaration of Independence, are 402 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: found out, find out you know how black holes are 403 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 1: created or whatever. That is a very easy thing that 404 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 1: very casual fans can look at it. No, and I'm 405 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:21,360 Speaker 1: starting to worry if Derek Mason, I wonder hook and look, 406 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,640 Speaker 1: I'm not a conspiracy theorist anything like that. I don't 407 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 1: think he called a majority of that game in the 408 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 1: Iron Bowl. I don't. It looked so different than what 409 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 1: we've seen before. And I was told by a few 410 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 1: people that that could have been the case. And I 411 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:33,920 Speaker 1: don't want to sit here and make this a bash 412 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,919 Speaker 1: Derek Mason fest. But if you don't know that rushing 413 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 1: three isn't the answer after nine games, I can't help you. 414 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 1: And you shouldn't be in charge of the defense. I'm sorry. Yeah, 415 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 1: I don't disagree with a lot of what you said, 416 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 1: and I had heard that about, you know, maybe more involvement, 417 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 1: you know, from other people other than Mason calling the defense, 418 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 1: whether it was Jeff Schmthing or whoever. And so I 419 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 1: mean I agree with you. I mean there was definitely 420 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:03,879 Speaker 1: I mean, the casual fan could see look at the 421 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 1: second half of the Missisippi State game and just the 422 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:11,200 Speaker 1: lack of adjustments was was um was mind blowing um. 423 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 1: And so I don't know, you know, I think Derek 424 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:17,000 Speaker 1: Mason's a really good recruiter and and and Harson needs 425 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 1: those and so I I could see potentially, given how 426 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 1: the Iron Bowl went, I could see how I could 427 00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 1: see Mason kind of saving his job per se, and 428 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:29,440 Speaker 1: getting another year because I do think he's a good 429 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: leader um and and a good recruiter and I think 430 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 1: Parson needs that. But you know, you call those yeah, 431 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:41,119 Speaker 1: So I don't know. I just I don't know, you 432 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 1: know right now if a change is gonna be made there, 433 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,239 Speaker 1: I get the feeling that he may have saved his job. Um, 434 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:49,120 Speaker 1: We'll just we'll just have to to wait and see, 435 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,439 Speaker 1: because they need to rebuild that that defense too. I mean, 436 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: there's a lot of positions there to get and I 437 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,400 Speaker 1: wonder how involved Derek Mason is with some of those 438 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 1: guys like Curtis Perry and others. I mean, you saw 439 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:00,119 Speaker 1: some of the Offensive recruits all said we're staying at 440 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 1: Holden Grinder, Tomari Austin, the Offensive commit kids that are 441 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 1: committed pretty much of all like immediately we're like, no, 442 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 1: we're good. So it kind of makes me when we're like, 443 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,199 Speaker 1: you know, from a recruiting aspect, was there just kind 444 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 1: of Bubba was like there's nothing to bring there, whereas 445 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,439 Speaker 1: maybe Mason's got that in his bag to give him 446 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:18,920 Speaker 1: another year. I don't know, No, that that's a good thought, 447 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,120 Speaker 1: That that's an angle I really haven't explored that much. 448 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about candidates for this OC job, 449 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:25,159 Speaker 1: and then I want to talk about bo Nix and 450 00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:27,239 Speaker 1: some guys getting in the portal. Who are a few 451 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 1: names off I mean, we've heard Zach Hill, We've heard 452 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 1: Matt Wells. You know you can go to you look 453 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 1: in the NFL, just kind of off the top of 454 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:35,440 Speaker 1: your head. Who are a few guys that Auburn fans 455 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: need to be looking out for. Those are definitely too 456 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,119 Speaker 1: and we had those up at Auburnlive dot com and 457 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:45,399 Speaker 1: I'm sure other places. Those are pretty obvious. Seems like 458 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:49,160 Speaker 1: those would make sense, right, Like Zach Hill spent time 459 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:52,399 Speaker 1: with Brian Hartson, Matt Wells was an offensive coordinator at 460 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 1: Utah State and has head coaching experience, and let's just 461 00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 1: let go at Texas Tech. So like, I think both 462 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:00,919 Speaker 1: of those would probably be good hires. Um. I think 463 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,200 Speaker 1: it's important for Brian Harson and the way he wants 464 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,200 Speaker 1: to run a program. I mean, you think about what 465 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:07,399 Speaker 1: I just said about we heard early on that there 466 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:10,639 Speaker 1: was not a great mesh between Bobo Friend and Harson. 467 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 1: Now I don't know if will Friends gonna stick around. 468 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 1: That could depend on the O C Well He's been 469 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 1: with Bobo for it seems like his entire career, or 470 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 1: seems like where Bobo goes, he goes, he's a friend. 471 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:20,359 Speaker 1: See what I did there? YEA, So early on we 472 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 1: heard about this fit issue. So I would focus on 473 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:25,639 Speaker 1: that too, in the fact that Harson's gonna need to 474 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,360 Speaker 1: get somebody in there where the fit. Think about Cornelis 475 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 1: Williams getting lego and who gets promoted Eric Kiesaw, who's 476 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,479 Speaker 1: been with Brian Harson. So I just I think that's 477 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:35,479 Speaker 1: an important part too, which is why maybe you hear 478 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,959 Speaker 1: Zach Hill and the way Harson runs that program. Man, 479 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 1: you've got to be on the same page as him. 480 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,920 Speaker 1: There's standards, there's there's a level of expectations, and he's 481 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,639 Speaker 1: just not playing around and you've got to be on 482 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 1: that same wavelength as him or or you know, it 483 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 1: might not work. And so I think that's gonna be 484 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 1: really important. You talked about maybe a young NFL think 485 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,879 Speaker 1: about Joe Brady and coming in that that could that 486 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: could be as well. I would imagine he would go 487 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 1: after somebody in college first and then maybe if that 488 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 1: doesn't work for whatever reason, go after an up and 489 00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:11,680 Speaker 1: comer type OC. But it needs to be somebody that 490 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:15,680 Speaker 1: meshes with what Harson wants to do offensively, um, but 491 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:19,520 Speaker 1: also is with the vision and with the and with 492 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 1: the program. Yeah and again, you know, and I'll press 493 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 1: on this point. Brian Harson is interviewing these guys, so 494 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 1: you got to know how to hire guys that are 495 00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 1: going to do what you want to do. And I 496 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 1: don't doubt that it's not like this is Brian Harson's 497 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 1: first head coaching gig. He knows how to interview guys. 498 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 1: But you can see with Cornelius now with Bobo, we 499 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 1: don't know if there's gonna be other staff changes that 500 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 1: You've got to hit on the right guys, and you've 501 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:44,639 Speaker 1: got to be able to be thorough in the interview process, 502 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:46,399 Speaker 1: and they've got to know that. You've got to make 503 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 1: that known to them that you're you're coming into this ship. 504 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: I'm the captain to this ship. I'm not going to 505 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:52,719 Speaker 1: put you in the brig. But you're also not going 506 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:54,920 Speaker 1: to be the one steering the steering wheel. So it's 507 00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,919 Speaker 1: kind of that balance in between. Hoka had Bo Nixon 508 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 1: yesterday a really good interview him. He talked about his 509 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 1: love for Auburn, how you know nobody. He wants Auburn 510 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:04,959 Speaker 1: to do better than anybody. I mean, he's a guy 511 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 1: that grew up in it. You know his dad, Patrick Knicks. Uh. Now, 512 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:11,200 Speaker 1: with Bobo leaving, what are your odds that bow Knicks 513 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 1: is a quarterback at Auburn next year? Because we saw 514 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 1: the TJ. Finley experiment and it wasn't great. Yeah, it 515 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 1: wasn't great. Um, Demetrius Davis, wh's a freshman, looks like 516 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 1: he's gonna stay at Auburn. UM, and so you know 517 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:27,119 Speaker 1: you've got that guy, don't look like he's leaving. Odds 518 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 1: on bow Knicks, Um, who I mean, I wouldn't go 519 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:33,159 Speaker 1: I'm not sure I would go as far as to 520 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 1: say fifty fifty. Um, I would probably still lean that 521 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 1: he comes back. But you know, I don't know that 522 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,120 Speaker 1: I would go seventy thirty that he comes back either. 523 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 1: You know, maybe sixty five forty would make me feel comfortable. Um. Yeah, 524 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 1: I mean I think bos got some decisions to make. 525 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,400 Speaker 1: I mean, the college football landscape with the transfer portal 526 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 1: and in I L has changed a lot since he 527 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:57,719 Speaker 1: arrived at Auburn, So there's there's business decisions to make there, right, 528 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 1: You've got a dad who is very smart, who's coach, 529 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,159 Speaker 1: you know, the head coach in high school football and 530 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,159 Speaker 1: knows the lay of the land. And so there's some 531 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:08,639 Speaker 1: dynamics there that it's not just as simple as like 532 00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 1: just stay. I mean, there's a lot they're they're thinking 533 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 1: through all the different angles. Um, whether that's I can't 534 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:16,440 Speaker 1: imagine turning pro like I mean, would you know, he's 535 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:18,359 Speaker 1: got enough talent he may end up on a roster 536 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:22,119 Speaker 1: or get a shot, but I can't imagine, um, you 537 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 1: know that that's a really great opportunity. I think transferring, 538 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 1: you know, is certainly in the in the that that 539 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 1: door's open um, which that would be shocking, right to 540 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:35,879 Speaker 1: see mister mister Auburn bow Nicks transferred to another school 541 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 1: would be just just odd, but one in the nutshell 542 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:42,880 Speaker 1: really Yeah, And we told our board, look, he's gotten 543 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 1: a lot of criticism in his time at Auburn, and 544 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 1: from what I understand, that is playing a part here, 545 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 1: and not just him but his family and his dad 546 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,760 Speaker 1: wanting him to be in the best situation for him 547 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 1: and if it's not Auburn, where he's just gonna get 548 00:26:56,200 --> 00:27:00,240 Speaker 1: lamb basted every single time he does something wrong, you 549 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 1: can bobie it the best, the best he can be 550 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:05,800 Speaker 1: under those circumstances. He does he need to just get 551 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,240 Speaker 1: out of Auburn? Is it too much? I think that's 552 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 1: things they're thinking about right now versus coming back for 553 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,640 Speaker 1: one more year under what would be his fourth OC 554 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 1: in four years. Yeah. I mean you look a lot 555 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 1: of people that they were calling for t J. Finley 556 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:21,960 Speaker 1: to replace bow Knicks, you know early in the season. 557 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,000 Speaker 1: Are the people that just continually bashed bow Knicks are 558 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:28,080 Speaker 1: eating a Thanksgiving size portion of crow right now, and 559 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 1: they're probably the same people begging him to stay. Last question, 560 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 1: we got Justin Hookinson here from Auburn Live. That's the 561 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:36,359 Speaker 1: ON three affiliate. Make sure you head over there. Sean 562 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,719 Speaker 1: Shivers in the portal, Caleb Johnson and the portal. How 563 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 1: many more players do you think will end up in 564 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:43,320 Speaker 1: the portal for Auburn. I feel like I just missed somebody. 565 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,960 Speaker 1: Elijah Canyon, Elijah Canyon Man, that guy look good in 566 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,359 Speaker 1: the ball game against Northwestern. Guess he just couldn't figure 567 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 1: it out. Yeah, he had that catch. Remember, um, I 568 00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,639 Speaker 1: think there will be a few more. There will be 569 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:57,879 Speaker 1: a few more and I told our board like a 570 00:27:57,880 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, because I knew this was coming. 571 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:02,240 Speaker 1: I said, look, guys, there will be transfers. I was like, 572 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,199 Speaker 1: it's gonna happen in this day and age. You need 573 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:06,439 Speaker 1: you need to rewire your brain on how you look 574 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 1: at transfers. Um. Now, if bow or tank that you 575 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,879 Speaker 1: could look at that a little differently. Um. But but 576 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:15,640 Speaker 1: if guy's transfer, you got to take a step back, 577 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,280 Speaker 1: especially in the first year under Brian Harrison, third go 578 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,959 Speaker 1: into be guys leave and I wouldn't really freak out 579 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 1: about it too much. None of those guys Kenny didn't play, 580 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,959 Speaker 1: Hayleb Johnson was in trouble all the time, Sean Chivers 581 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 1: played some, but then as the season went on, his 582 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,439 Speaker 1: minutes went down. I could see Auburn losing another receiver, 583 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 1: you know, maybe somebody like Xavian Capers who didn't play much. 584 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:37,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know for sure, but that's 585 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 1: like a guy that would come to mind as talented, 586 00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 1: maybe didn't have the season he wanted. UM And I'm 587 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 1: sure there will be others. I think it'll it's also 588 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,479 Speaker 1: Kitha who can Auburn and bring back can Can can 589 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:50,240 Speaker 1: a couple of these seniors take another year, uh Keno 590 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 1: and Patoe come back? You know, that would really help them. Um, 591 00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 1: that would really help him as well. So, but I'm 592 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:58,360 Speaker 1: not too Honestly, I'm not too concerned about who leaves 593 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 1: Auburn from the transfer portal because it's Brian Harson's first 594 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 1: year and if they leave, I have to think outside 595 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:06,960 Speaker 1: a tank, right, nobody would want Tank to leave, but 596 00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 1: I would have to think that Brian Harrison and them 597 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 1: probably are not worried about They probably made decisions they 598 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:18,920 Speaker 1: knew we're not gonna play him. Guys probably gonna transfer. 599 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 1: Oh well, and I don't you know, that's just the 600 00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:23,840 Speaker 1: reality of the situation. So outside of big time guys, 601 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 1: I'm not that concerned. If guy's transfer. He needs to 602 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 1: get the players in there to build this program. And 603 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 1: if those guys aren't them, then then they're not them. 604 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:32,240 Speaker 1: That's just how it is. Yeah, well, hop man, I 605 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:34,280 Speaker 1: appreciate it. Great stuff as usual.

Ryan Kelly going to LSU, 656 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley going to USC. Who has a better chance 657 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:58,680 Speaker 1: to win, bigger, faster. And it's a loaded question to me. 658 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 1: I look at the path that's the easiest, and I 659 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 1: am going under the assumption. And I know it's bad 660 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 1: to assume. My mom told me the same thing that 661 00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 1: your mom told you, or your dad, are your anti grandma, 662 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 1: grandpa or whoever the hell helped raise you told you. 663 00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 1: We know what assuming makes you. But I'm assuming we're 664 00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:18,880 Speaker 1: going to a twelve team playoff. I think that's going 665 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,640 Speaker 1: to happen. I think you're gonna get the Power five 666 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 1: Conference championship winners automatically in and you'll get that group 667 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 1: of five, the twelve plus one, the alternate plus one, 668 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 1: whatever they call it. I look at the path that 669 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley has to go through early to be able 670 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 1: to have success. Not that Brian Kelly can't flip LSU 671 00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:42,960 Speaker 1: really quick HGTV style, flip this house where the twin 672 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 1: guys that are on every show, but Lincoln Riley. When 673 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,360 Speaker 1: you look when you land and you look at the landscape, 674 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:53,000 Speaker 1: let's play that game. Let's play some sims. Lincoln Riley's 675 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,120 Speaker 1: looking around the landscape at the PAC twelve. In college football, 676 00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:57,600 Speaker 1: the only time you're gonna have to see an SEC 677 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 1: team is in the playoff, National Championship whatever. PAC twelve. 678 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 1: I gotta worry about Oregon and Mario Cristobal blank check 679 00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:10,480 Speaker 1: from Phil Knight. We know what they're building over there. Utah, 680 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 1: Kyle Winningham always gonna have a tough team. You're gonna 681 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 1: have to earn it. UCLA if they find a quarterback 682 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:20,800 Speaker 1: and the chips able to get that offense in rhythm, 683 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 1: kind of get that program going. I know he's not 684 00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:26,240 Speaker 1: the best recruiter in the world. Outside of that, who 685 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 1: else is there? Who else is there? Oregon State, cal 686 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 1: I like to devour hire at Washington. It's gonna take 687 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 1: him some time. So if i'm I'd make the same 688 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 1: argument for Clemson in the a SEC, I'm looking around saying, well, 689 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,320 Speaker 1: we're looking still like one of the prettiest girls. It's 690 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 1: the dance and USC is out there. It's it can 691 00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 1: be its own shining beacon on the hill out on 692 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 1: the West coast. They've lost a ton of players from 693 00:33:56,040 --> 00:34:01,640 Speaker 1: California to Alabama, to Georgia to the SEC to the 694 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 1: Big Ten. You keep a few of those guys home, 695 00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:07,240 Speaker 1: like we've already seen Lincoln Riley, who had California guys 696 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:11,880 Speaker 1: going to Oklahoma. You can build it quicker there. The 697 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:16,840 Speaker 1: competition's not as tough. And what is that city like? 698 00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:19,120 Speaker 1: All you need is a little bit of magic. It's 699 00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:23,120 Speaker 1: a front running town. USC's good, they'll show up. USC's bad. 700 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 1: It looks like what it looked like against BYU. It's 701 00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 1: just process of elimination. It's just looking around and reading 702 00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:33,440 Speaker 1: the room. It's obviously an easier path. And it's not 703 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:37,960 Speaker 1: like the committee looks down upon USC. College football knows 704 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:41,680 Speaker 1: they need USC as a college football purists. I want 705 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 1: USC to be good. I want UCLA to be good. 706 00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:46,759 Speaker 1: I want Oregon to be good. I want the PAC 707 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 1: twelve to be good. But they're not. They're not, And 708 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:55,400 Speaker 1: I think Lincoln has an easier path. Now, if you're 709 00:34:55,440 --> 00:35:00,160 Speaker 1: Brian Kelly, you land on your planet. You know, tough 710 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:03,480 Speaker 1: McConaughey style. Look around. I looked to my right, I 711 00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:07,279 Speaker 1: got Nick Saban Bama. Look at what old missus is doing. 712 00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:11,400 Speaker 1: Lane's still there. Brian Hartston at Auburn, who knows A 713 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:13,279 Speaker 1: and M with Jimbo even though they just built him. 714 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:15,200 Speaker 1: You know he's building it. They just got another five 715 00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:19,440 Speaker 1: star yesterday. It's like a damn astrology class at college 716 00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 1: station right now. There's so many stars. So it's just 717 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:28,120 Speaker 1: which is the harder fight. That's why I give Brian 718 00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:30,080 Speaker 1: Kelley more respect for taking the LSU job than I 719 00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 1: did Lincoln Riley. But that doesn't mean I don't think 720 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:34,359 Speaker 1: USC has a better path to the playoff out there. 721 00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 1: And that's probably one of the biggest reasons why Lincoln 722 00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:39,680 Speaker 1: Riley made the decision that and like coach Sisky said, 723 00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:42,040 Speaker 1: he's got unlimited hours on the plane. Hell, he could 724 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 1: take the plane to McDonald's and with that traffic, you 725 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:48,480 Speaker 1: probably have to in and out. Please, yeah, excuse me, Okay, 726 00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 1: you're right, huh, forgive me before I have sinned. But 727 00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:57,320 Speaker 1: it's just simple math to me. USC's got an easier 728 00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:59,920 Speaker 1: path and they'll be healthier when they get to the playoff. 729 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 1: Now does that mean when they get to the playoff 730 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:03,839 Speaker 1: they won't be beating a smith areens by the first 731 00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:07,000 Speaker 1: SEC team they play no like Oklahoma. But in the 732 00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:11,040 Speaker 1: Pact twelve, getting there's good enough, Fellas, getting there's good enough. 733 00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:13,840 Speaker 1: You don't have to know how to boogie. You just 734 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:19,000 Speaker 1: gotta go to the dance at LSU. You better go 735 00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 1: to the dance and you better know how to break dance. 736 00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:26,200 Speaker 1: You better look like John Travolta, Are Patrick Swayze out there? 737 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 1: And it better happened quick. If it doesn't happen early 738 00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:32,359 Speaker 1: for Lincoln Riley, everybody USC's not going to freak out 739 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:36,320 Speaker 1: if it doesn't happen early for Brian Kelly at LSU. Regardless, 740 00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:39,879 Speaker 1: LSU fans are going to freak out. So I don't 741 00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:42,920 Speaker 1: know how the answer this is not Lincoln Riley, who 742 00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:45,279 Speaker 1: has a better chance to get off to a faster start. Yeah, 743 00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:48,880 Speaker 1: for sure, it's gotta be right. Yeah. I mean, let 744 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:51,520 Speaker 1: me be specific here. I think Lincoln Riley can win 745 00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:53,960 Speaker 1: more quicker at AT win more quicker. I love that 746 00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:58,880 Speaker 1: one win more more quickly than Brian Kelly. But when 747 00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:01,120 Speaker 1: I say, I mean, I think that Lincoln Riley can 748 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:04,440 Speaker 1: win his conference before Brian Kelly can win his division, right, 749 00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:06,400 Speaker 1: just because like you were saying so quickly, I think 750 00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley can make a four team playoff out at 751 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:12,759 Speaker 1: USC quicker than Brian Kelly can. I think Brian Kelly 752 00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 1: can win a national championship quicker than Lincoln Riley can 753 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:19,800 Speaker 1: at USC. I'm trying to be specific because Lincoln Riley 754 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,880 Speaker 1: and Brian Kelly both had a similar problem at their 755 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:26,640 Speaker 1: previous institutions. Right we are we are in We can 756 00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:29,520 Speaker 1: make the four team playoff at the institutions we're at, 757 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 1: which puts us ahead of ninety percent of the schools 758 00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:34,640 Speaker 1: in this country. But we're not at places where we 759 00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:37,040 Speaker 1: can go win the semifinal game, make the final, and 760 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:39,760 Speaker 1: win the national championship. Lincoln Riley went to a program 761 00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 1: that still has that same problem, Right Kelly. Brian Kelly 762 00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:46,040 Speaker 1: did not. He solved that problem, so I think, yeah, 763 00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:49,319 Speaker 1: like you said, Lincoln Riley can win quicker in terms 764 00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:51,920 Speaker 1: of winning his conference and making a playoff, but he's 765 00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:54,000 Speaker 1: still he's still going to run into the same problem 766 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:56,400 Speaker 1: that he had at Oklahoma. I believe could he go 767 00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:59,120 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll, could they get Will Fare on the sideline. 768 00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:01,279 Speaker 1: It's like you said, you know USC is doing good, 769 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:03,040 Speaker 1: Will Farrell will be there, Matt Liner will be the 770 00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:05,439 Speaker 1: Reggie Bush. I'll be there when they're doing bad. See 771 00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 1: at the Lakers game. Yeah right, yeah, LSU. I think 772 00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:12,560 Speaker 1: Kelly will win a national championship quicker, right, even if 773 00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:14,960 Speaker 1: he doesn't make a playoff before Lincoln Riley, and even 774 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:17,799 Speaker 1: if he doesn't win his division faster than Lincoln Riley 775 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:19,880 Speaker 1: can actually go win his conference. Yeah. Well, the thing 776 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,520 Speaker 1: to me, it's almost like in baseball, you have the 777 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 1: one hitter that's really consistent, doesn't hit a lot of 778 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,520 Speaker 1: home runs. If he hits a home run, you're you're shocked. 779 00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:29,359 Speaker 1: But the guy can hit doubles and triples and I'll 780 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:32,960 Speaker 1: hit three twenty Brian. Kelly's kind of like Jorge Solaire. 781 00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:36,239 Speaker 1: I'm swinging as hard as I can, and eventually I'm 782 00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:38,400 Speaker 1: gonna run into one, and when I run into one, 783 00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:40,960 Speaker 1: it's not getting to the playoff. I'm getting to the 784 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:42,719 Speaker 1: playoff and winning the whole thing. I'm hitting the ball 785 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:44,960 Speaker 1: over the train tracks in Houston. Now, I'm not saying 786 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 1: Brian Kelly won't have consistent success at LSU, but you 787 00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:51,879 Speaker 1: go not. Look. USC fans right now would love nine 788 00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:54,600 Speaker 1: and three, would love nine and three. LSU fans will 789 00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:59,080 Speaker 1: be like the last three coaches have won national championships 790 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:01,840 Speaker 1: that I'll let see the standard set, fellas like the 791 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,400 Speaker 1: standard set that's not changing. But I am with you. 792 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:07,719 Speaker 1: I think Lincoln Riley can get there quicker, but I 793 00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:10,640 Speaker 1: think Brian Kelly has a better chance to win it quicker. 794 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:14,839 Speaker 1: But that's the difference at USC right now. I don't 795 00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,960 Speaker 1: think they're just getting there. Look, let's go out there 796 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:20,840 Speaker 1: and have a party. We win great, but look at 797 00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:23,840 Speaker 1: those guys are huge. That's just the way I feel it, 798 00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:26,800 Speaker 1: right you know, I'm trying to find a logical argument. 799 00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:31,440 Speaker 1: On the other side, I think a couple little caveats 800 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:33,400 Speaker 1: here to me when it comes to Lincoln Riley. I 801 00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:35,600 Speaker 1: think Lincoln Riley needs to do something good early, and 802 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:38,080 Speaker 1: I think he needs to make a great defensive coordinator 803 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:43,399 Speaker 1: high unless he's bringing Christmas. That's one that's been kind 804 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:46,400 Speaker 1: of his achilles heel is He's great at offense, but 805 00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:50,920 Speaker 1: his defense has never been good and never to have 806 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:53,319 Speaker 1: a somewhat of a defense, right. And the thing another 807 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 1: thing about USC is if they're gonna do it, he 808 00:39:55,719 --> 00:40:00,279 Speaker 1: needs everything to get better around him. Facilities, just for 809 00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:04,840 Speaker 1: the athletes and everything in California because the State of LSU, 810 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:08,080 Speaker 1: Louisiana is behind Ellis. You know you said it right 811 00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 1: to State of LSU. They're behind LSU. Right.

Yeah, 829 00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:18,759 Speaker 1: it's the team hasn't been relevant since two thousand and four, 830 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:21,719 Speaker 1: all right, two thousand and four. So at nine and 831 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 1: three at USC, they better be astounded with a nine 832 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:29,160 Speaker 1: and three because right now you're not close. You're not close, 833 00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:31,279 Speaker 1: and you think Lincoln Ridse is going to automatically come 834 00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:33,839 Speaker 1: in here in the first year and scoop up all 835 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,000 Speaker 1: these guys because the guy's coming from California are going 836 00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:40,080 Speaker 1: to the South and doing what winning championship, winning championships, 837 00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:42,080 Speaker 1: and people see that in the south's always only what 838 00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:46,920 Speaker 1: getting bigger and better and stronger, and Lincoln, you Grench 839 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:49,239 Speaker 1: better show up on defense. Right so you have an 840 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:51,759 Speaker 1: average couple of years, says Brian Kelly, can walk into 841 00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:55,600 Speaker 1: LSU and win the national championship the first year he's there. 842 00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:58,480 Speaker 1: I don't care that ground is that fruitful to win there? 843 00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:00,680 Speaker 1: It is, I mean you're not. It is. And Brian 844 00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:04,920 Speaker 1: Kelly can do what recruit where up front, right up front. 845 00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:07,239 Speaker 1: So I understand it. Will it be easier to win 846 00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:09,560 Speaker 1: the PAC twelve just because the level of competition, Yeah, 847 00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:12,160 Speaker 1: that's fine. I understand that. But Brian Kelly was bringing 848 00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:14,240 Speaker 1: to LSU a structure on both sides of the football, 849 00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:16,120 Speaker 1: and Lincoln Riley needs to hit on defense. He wants 850 00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:18,200 Speaker 1: to do something the pack twell, well, I think Lincoln Riley, 851 00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:22,080 Speaker 1: like you said, excuse me, Brian Kelly is bringing organizational 852 00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:26,120 Speaker 1: skills CEO CEO. But he's also you know, very involved 853 00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:30,600 Speaker 1: schematically offensively. Brian Kelly is a great mind offensively. But 854 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:33,919 Speaker 1: you know, we can't get hung up on the old 855 00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:38,359 Speaker 1: school way of thinking about flipping programs. With the transfer portal. Now, 856 00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:41,520 Speaker 1: I mean, it's free agency. You got the thirty two 857 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:45,080 Speaker 1: intake rule. You can flip the script so quickly. And 858 00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:49,000 Speaker 1: there's a few places in the country, seven to ten 859 00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 1: probably that have the ability with the cachet, with the 860 00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:57,320 Speaker 1: with the brand name, with the blue bloodness that people know. 861 00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:00,520 Speaker 1: I walk into a high school in Alabama, and I say, 862 00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:02,839 Speaker 1: who who are the USC Trojans? Those high school players 863 00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 1: know who that is there. It's still fresh enough in 864 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:09,839 Speaker 1: high school kids minds. They know that USC, Reggie Bush 865 00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:13,200 Speaker 1: and Matt Liners. They understand that. They don't remember, you know, O. J. 866 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:15,480 Speaker 1: Simpson and all of them back then. They remember the 867 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:18,200 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll and how cool it was and Snoop Dogg 868 00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:20,359 Speaker 1: and them on the sidelines. So you're at the very 869 00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:24,560 Speaker 1: end of that rope. Can Lincoln Riley make that fresh 870 00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:28,520 Speaker 1: and sexy again at USC? You can? You can, and 871 00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:31,240 Speaker 1: not only can you, but you can be the shining 872 00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:34,040 Speaker 1: beacon on the West coast. Ucla is not doing it. 873 00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:39,560 Speaker 1: You talk, that's great. Chair state would be YU. You know, 874 00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:42,640 Speaker 1: you look at Oregon. That's great, but they're not in 875 00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:47,120 Speaker 1: love head over heels with football the way that people 876 00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:51,279 Speaker 1: are at LSU and stuff like that. USC could represent California. 877 00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:54,360 Speaker 1: Be the juggernaut in California, a big state that produces 878 00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 1: a ton of talent, even though it's been exported a 879 00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:59,480 Speaker 1: lot to the South lately. You can flip that place quick, 880 00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:01,799 Speaker 1: go be the he could go be the West coast. 881 00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:06,239 Speaker 1: Clemson right could best be the best answer outside the 882 00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:08,839 Speaker 1: SEC that doesn't have to go toe to toe every 883 00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:10,560 Speaker 1: single week in the West and if he goes full 884 00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:12,120 Speaker 1: peat Carroll. I'm telling you I played against one of 885 00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:14,000 Speaker 1: those Peat Carroll teams in the Rose Bowl and they 886 00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:16,640 Speaker 1: ran us okay, with Brian Cushing and the boys Silver 887 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:19,600 Speaker 1: Fox running up and down the side like coolestee, I'm like, man, 888 00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:22,440 Speaker 1: they're they're having fun. Yeah there you remember that on 889 00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:27,719 Speaker 1: the side. Pete Carroll's like watching dogs over there. They're 890 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:30,359 Speaker 1: the West Coast Verse, They're the West Coast Clemson. They 891 00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:32,600 Speaker 1: could be a problem. And you don't go to USC 892 00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:35,799 Speaker 1: and be a disciplinarian. Sure, that doesn't it doesn't work 893 00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:37,799 Speaker 1: like that. That doesn't work. But you better have something 894 00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:40,080 Speaker 1: because you'll want to get Reggie bushed again. Yeah, well 895 00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:42,200 Speaker 1: that's true, and you better be able to tackle somebody. 896 00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:44,320 Speaker 1: That's the other thing us. It was kind of Nli 897 00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:50,279 Speaker 1: and before Island before I mean, you know, so, I 898 00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:53,560 Speaker 1: don't think anybody can really replicate what Pete Carroll did. 899 00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:56,279 Speaker 1: All right, So I got Lincoln, you got Lincoln, you 900 00:44:56,360 --> 00:44:58,719 Speaker 1: got Brian, give me Brian. Well, if we're talking about 901 00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:03,040 Speaker 1: when win more a comma quicker to say okay or 902 00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:05,200 Speaker 1: are we saying the Are we just just talking about 903 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:08,480 Speaker 1: national championships? No, it's it's it's getting to me. It's 904 00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:10,600 Speaker 1: who can get there quicker. But that's why I like 905 00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:12,959 Speaker 1: your point. If we're arguing who can get there quicker, 906 00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:15,160 Speaker 1: it's Lincoln Riley and my especially go to twelve. But 907 00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 1: if we're arguing who can win it quicker, because getting 908 00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:22,799 Speaker 1: there and winning it are two ways to different keys. 909 00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:29,160 Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley. Riley just left the room with the same 910 00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:32,040 Speaker 1: ceiling to go to another room with the exact same ceiling. 911 00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:34,880 Speaker 1: And Brian Kelly's looking up after leaving a team with 912 00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:37,840 Speaker 1: the ceiling he overachieved and now it's looking up with 913 00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,040 Speaker 1: no ceiling. Well, well, I think it's it's you know, 914 00:45:40,160 --> 00:45:41,839 Speaker 1: that's it's a great way an album, by the way, 915 00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:45,160 Speaker 1: no ceilings. But no, look, I think there's multiple ways 916 00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:47,120 Speaker 1: you can look at it. But I'm going with Lincoln Riley. 917 00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:51,919 Speaker 1: Uh And and again, it's just gonna be fascinating to see. 918 00:45:52,040 --> 00:45:53,360 Speaker 1: But you know what, I was gonna be fascinating to 919 00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:57,520 Speaker 1: see JBCC Championship game this weekend and we got Jordan 920 00:45:57,560 --> 00:45:59,920 Speaker 1: Battles starting safe from Alabama. I asked him, is George 921 00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:03,120 Speaker 1: a rival. I think he'll like what he says. All right, 922 00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:05,920 Speaker 1: a big week, coming off a big weekend, a big 923 00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:08,879 Speaker 1: win in the Iron Bowl. As usual, we are joined 924 00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:12,719 Speaker 1: by Alabama standout dB safety Nickel. Dude could play corner, 925 00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:14,840 Speaker 1: probably play receiver. You watch him dance after he scores. 926 00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:16,919 Speaker 1: You think he played the receiver in his life. Mister Jordan, 927 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:19,920 Speaker 1: Battle Jordan, what's up? Man? What's up? Man? How are 928 00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:22,040 Speaker 1: you doing? Man? I'm doing good. Every time I bring 929 00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:23,680 Speaker 1: you on here, it's after another win. Man, y'all got 930 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:27,520 Speaker 1: a cooking. Yeah, we're eating up right now. We eating 931 00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:31,000 Speaker 1: up big one this week. Just you know, going back 932 00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:33,279 Speaker 1: and watching the tape of the Iron Bowl, Jordan and 933 00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:35,439 Speaker 1: I watched it. I didn't have the wide and tight 934 00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:37,560 Speaker 1: like you, you know, the great stuff you guys got 935 00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:39,840 Speaker 1: with the calls up there and everything like that. But 936 00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:41,960 Speaker 1: going back and looking at it, you guys obviously a 937 00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:44,520 Speaker 1: hell of a performance on defense. You know, just talk 938 00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:46,080 Speaker 1: to me about that game a little bit, because it 939 00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:47,720 Speaker 1: was a fist fight from the start to the beginning, 940 00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:51,759 Speaker 1: but to the end. But that's what the Iron Bowl is. Yeah, 941 00:46:52,080 --> 00:46:54,279 Speaker 1: I think I think you're starting in practice. I think 942 00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:58,319 Speaker 1: we had a great, great practice week, a great preparation week. Um, 943 00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:00,520 Speaker 1: we knew coming into the game aim that it was 944 00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:03,480 Speaker 1: gonna be a tough fight. We knew that Album was 945 00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:06,680 Speaker 1: gonna throw everything at us offensively, and we knew we 946 00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:08,640 Speaker 1: had to stop the run in order to win the game. 947 00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:12,560 Speaker 1: And that's what we did now, Jordan, And again, you know, 948 00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:14,960 Speaker 1: people get hurts part of the game, but as a 949 00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:17,400 Speaker 1: defensive guy and then you know, coach defense, so I 950 00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:19,320 Speaker 1: know how it goes when you see a guy that 951 00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:21,160 Speaker 1: may be a little beat up. You know, whether it's 952 00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:23,120 Speaker 1: Matt Carrold that's beat up, for Roman's going into a game. 953 00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:25,160 Speaker 1: You see t J. Finley turn his ankle like that, 954 00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:27,239 Speaker 1: and you know we can't run. I mean, like a shark, 955 00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:30,759 Speaker 1: you got to smell blood in the water, right, Well, yeah, 956 00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:35,200 Speaker 1: of course of course, but yeah, go ahead, go ahead. 957 00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:37,759 Speaker 1: We didn't had to change the game plan, you know, 958 00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:41,120 Speaker 1: just because you hurt. It was the same, just stuck 959 00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:44,200 Speaker 1: to the plan and kept attacking. And uh, as you 960 00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:46,640 Speaker 1: can see, we had I think we had a career 961 00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:49,839 Speaker 1: high and um Dago for laws that game too. Yeah 962 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:52,279 Speaker 1: for sure. I mean, you guys able to stop the 963 00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:54,319 Speaker 1: run and stop tank and you know when you don't 964 00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:56,760 Speaker 1: have balance. You fall off the beam on offense most times. 965 00:47:57,120 --> 00:47:59,719 Speaker 1: How can you guys use the momentum from that iron ball? Jordan? 966 00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:01,800 Speaker 1: Because now you know, y'all have to put together a 967 00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:04,480 Speaker 1: hell of a defensive effort against Georgia as well. Uh, 968 00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:08,279 Speaker 1: you know, like I said, another week, another big time battle. Yeah, 969 00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:10,680 Speaker 1: like last week, we have to have a great a 970 00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:14,719 Speaker 1: great mental focus this week, great practices, Uh, give all 971 00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:17,359 Speaker 1: our energy. Um So, so it translates to the game. 972 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:20,120 Speaker 1: We know George is gonna be a tough opponent. They 973 00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:22,920 Speaker 1: all always a tough opponent. So we just have to, 974 00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:25,960 Speaker 1: you know, basically take what we did last weekend and 975 00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:29,280 Speaker 1: build on it. Jordan, do you guys to see Georgia's 976 00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:31,000 Speaker 1: a rivalry game? Now?

The fans love to see Alabama versus Georgia, 984 00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:55,840 Speaker 1: and they know it's gonna be exciting every time we 985 00:48:55,880 --> 00:48:59,680 Speaker 1: pay against each other. Definitely, and you know Jordan as well. 986 00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:02,120 Speaker 1: You know, when you look at Georgia and you look 987 00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:04,280 Speaker 1: at the style that they play, it's kind of similar 988 00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:06,440 Speaker 1: to a lot y'all seen during the season, whether it's 989 00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:08,520 Speaker 1: A and M a little bit you know, running to 990 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:10,879 Speaker 1: open the past. What are a few things you guys 991 00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:14,640 Speaker 1: have to do on defense to be successful this weekend? Um, 992 00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:16,840 Speaker 1: like last week, we have to stop the run. M. 993 00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:19,920 Speaker 1: Everybody have to get to the ball all eleven hats um. 994 00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:22,799 Speaker 1: You know, we know they have three three good tight 995 00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:27,480 Speaker 1: ends they use um the freshman number nineteen zero. Um, 996 00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:31,279 Speaker 1: I'm eighty six. And we know they have a great, 997 00:49:31,360 --> 00:49:35,040 Speaker 1: great diversity and backs they have a scat bag. They 998 00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:37,719 Speaker 1: are receiving backs. Yeah, backs, they can do it all. 999 00:49:37,920 --> 00:49:40,759 Speaker 1: They're very balanced. You know, they have a speed on 1000 00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:43,920 Speaker 1: the perimeter at the receiver positions. So we just have to, 1001 00:49:44,320 --> 00:49:46,080 Speaker 1: you know, be able to contain to run, you know, 1002 00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:48,400 Speaker 1: make them one dimensional like we like we should do 1003 00:49:48,560 --> 00:49:51,960 Speaker 1: to every team, you know, you know, just build on that. Yeah, 1004 00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:54,520 Speaker 1: make them dribble with their left as they say Jordan's 1005 00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:56,560 Speaker 1: last question. Man, I'm gonna help us win the water 1006 00:49:56,640 --> 00:49:58,919 Speaker 1: cooler here. You know what's funny. I'm sitting around about 1007 00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:01,800 Speaker 1: fifteen people, you know, watching the Iron Bowl and you 1008 00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:05,560 Speaker 1: rarely get penalties. Uh face mask got called for a 1009 00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:07,520 Speaker 1: face mask, and some people like, wow, how do you 1010 00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:09,560 Speaker 1: grab the face masks? How does that happen? Explain to 1011 00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:12,880 Speaker 1: people how fast you're going and you're not actually reaching 1012 00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:15,560 Speaker 1: for the face masks. It just happens to be there 1013 00:50:15,640 --> 00:50:17,759 Speaker 1: when you go to grab. Always laughing, people like, how 1014 00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:19,320 Speaker 1: can you do that? Why would you ever do that? 1015 00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:23,319 Speaker 1: Like you really don't understand how fast this is going. Yeah, 1016 00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:26,200 Speaker 1: I'm like, it's just sometimes it just had well it does. 1017 00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:29,600 Speaker 1: It gets, it gets in the way your running backs 1018 00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:31,359 Speaker 1: trying to finish the running. He puts his head down 1019 00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:34,000 Speaker 1: and your hand, your hand is coming across, your armors 1020 00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:36,279 Speaker 1: coming across, and you you grab the try to wrap 1021 00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:38,359 Speaker 1: them up, but you end up grabbing the face mask 1022 00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:42,200 Speaker 1: of grabbing some some other part of his body's waist 1023 00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:46,160 Speaker 1: or it's his hip. So so I feel like it 1024 00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:48,840 Speaker 1: really comes from when the runner, you know, drops his 1025 00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:51,279 Speaker 1: head and you put your hand on the on the 1026 00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:55,080 Speaker 1: face mask by accident on the good and and you know, Jordan, 1027 00:50:55,160 --> 00:50:57,600 Speaker 1: they let the runners drop their heads. It's amazing they 1028 00:50:57,640 --> 00:50:59,560 Speaker 1: can drop their heads and whatever they want. Crown of 1029 00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:01,680 Speaker 1: the helmet, side of the helmet, doesn't matter. That's a 1030 00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:03,400 Speaker 1: story for another day. I'm not I'm not going to 1031 00:51:03,480 --> 00:51:05,279 Speaker 1: ask you to opine on that, but you know where 1032 00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:07,080 Speaker 1: I sat out and I got a good feeling. I 1033 00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:09,080 Speaker 1: know where you standing on it. But all right, I 1034 00:51:09,160 --> 00:51:10,560 Speaker 1: know I said this the last question. I got one 1035 00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:12,840 Speaker 1: more for you. What does this game mean to you? 1036 00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:16,239 Speaker 1: Saturday in Atlanta with a chance to not only win 1037 00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:19,320 Speaker 1: and get in the playoff, but be an SEC champion 1038 00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:23,360 Speaker 1: As a leader on this team, Yeah, this mean this 1039 00:51:23,480 --> 00:51:26,680 Speaker 1: game means a lot. This This will be the second time, 1040 00:51:26,880 --> 00:51:28,960 Speaker 1: the second year in the road. Now we made it 1041 00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:32,479 Speaker 1: to the SEC Championship. And I remember how I felt 1042 00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:35,360 Speaker 1: last year and it was a great feeling. Um and 1043 00:51:35,680 --> 00:51:38,920 Speaker 1: seeing that Caffetti come down and coach Smiler with the 1044 00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:41,320 Speaker 1: with the trophy in his hand. Uh, I just feel like, 1045 00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:44,240 Speaker 1: I just like that's something everybody should be able to experience, 1046 00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:46,520 Speaker 1: and I feel like this team will want to experience that. 1047 00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:49,680 Speaker 1: So this is a big moment for us. All right, man, 1048 00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:51,279 Speaker 1: well you know you you're right next door to the show. 1049 00:51:51,320 --> 00:51:52,520 Speaker 1: You want to hop over here in the Hall of 1050 00:51:52,560 --> 00:51:54,239 Speaker 1: Fame and come to the studio.

Thank you, thank you? 1052 00:51:58,000 --> 00:51:59,920 Speaker 1: All right, Yeah, we'll see what Coach Saban says about that. 1053 00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:01,919 Speaker 1: I'm sure he wouldn't care. Now, I'm just kidding, all right, Jordan, 1054 00:52:01,960 --> 00:52:05,440 Speaker 1: appreciate your buddy. All right. We really appreciate Jordan Battle 1055 00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:07,960 Speaker 1: stopping by. Have loved to have him on all year. 1056 00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:11,080 Speaker 1: He's been fantastic. I thought he put it best. You know, 1057 00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:14,239 Speaker 1: these guys are competitive and everybody, I'm sure was gonna 1058 00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:16,600 Speaker 1: watch Jordan flying around. Funny about the face mask because 1059 00:52:16,600 --> 00:52:18,960 Speaker 1: it just happens so much faster. Everybody ram's like, why 1060 00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:20,360 Speaker 1: would he do that? Why would you like? He did 1061 00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:22,360 Speaker 1: it on purpose? Like he made see you know what, 1062 00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:25,279 Speaker 1: you broke a tackle. I'm grabbing your face mask because 1063 00:52:25,320 --> 00:52:30,200 Speaker 1: I'm just I just want to. But but you've heard 1064 00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:33,200 Speaker 1: of great award shows, you know, you know, I say great. 1065 00:52:33,239 --> 00:52:36,879 Speaker 1: It kind of stuck now, But like the Grammys, what's u? Yeah, 1066 00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:41,080 Speaker 1: the CMA's the Dundees. Well, we want to give out 1067 00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:43,440 Speaker 1: our own SEC awards. Now we've the first two are 1068 00:52:43,440 --> 00:52:46,120 Speaker 1: pretty generic. I think you guys you know, will be Yeah, 1069 00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:48,480 Speaker 1: I agree, maybe you disagree, but you can see it. 1070 00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:50,480 Speaker 1: Then the next three or three that we came up with. 1071 00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:53,799 Speaker 1: First one pretty generic. SEC Coach of the Year, it's 1072 00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:57,480 Speaker 1: gotta be Kirby Smart. It's gotta be going undefeated. Not Look, 1073 00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:01,040 Speaker 1: you can make an argument, Shane by making up, but again, 1074 00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:03,680 Speaker 1: the man went undefeated. They haven't won a national championship 1075 00:53:03,719 --> 00:53:06,279 Speaker 1: since nineteen eighty and it's looking like it's the year 1076 00:53:06,320 --> 00:53:08,759 Speaker 1: and you did it with a backup quarterback, a lot 1077 00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:12,040 Speaker 1: of your offensive players injured throughout, and you're still having 1078 00:53:12,080 --> 00:53:14,800 Speaker 1: to climb that mountain climb Everest, like we talked about. 1079 00:53:15,040 --> 00:53:16,480 Speaker 1: So as you see Coach of the Year to me 1080 00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:19,200 Speaker 1: as Kirby Smart. It's just the truth. Sam Pittman would 1081 00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:21,120 Speaker 1: be a great candidate if we had, you know, a 1082 00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:25,279 Speaker 1: sub Coach of the Year You're not undefeated award, it'd 1083 00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:28,920 Speaker 1: be Sam Pittman at Arkansas. But he may win another award. 1084 00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:31,200 Speaker 1: He might find he may find his way in there. 1085 00:53:31,719 --> 00:53:34,080 Speaker 1: All right, Well, first off, who would you pick Cone? 1086 00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:36,680 Speaker 1: Because I made these picks, would you go with Kirby Smart. Man, 1087 00:53:36,719 --> 00:53:38,520 Speaker 1: he's about to do something for this state and for 1088 00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:40,640 Speaker 1: this fan base. I'm telling you I grew up around him. Man, 1089 00:53:40,800 --> 00:53:42,799 Speaker 1: he's about to do something for them. I really think 1090 00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:46,480 Speaker 1: something special. Forty years, man, forty years, I mean he's 1091 00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:48,400 Speaker 1: been on fire. I think this state guy would have 1092 00:53:48,440 --> 00:53:58,919 Speaker 1: needed when the Braves wanted. Gimme Shane Biemer that good 1093 00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:02,279 Speaker 1: six and six and the SEC your first year with 1094 00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:08,960 Speaker 1: the GA at quarterback. James Franklin best coaching job ever. No, 1095 00:54:09,080 --> 00:54:13,360 Speaker 1: I don't know. James Franklin winning two games. That was 1096 00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:16,160 Speaker 1: the j SEC coach of the Year. Kirby Smart, all right, 1097 00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:18,279 Speaker 1: that takes this SEC player of the year, same team, 1098 00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:22,359 Speaker 1: Jordan Davis, give him the heisman. I don't know why 1099 00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:25,600 Speaker 1: we don't do it. I don't I don't understand it. 1100 00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:27,960 Speaker 1: The guy is the most dominant player. To me, you 1101 00:54:28,080 --> 00:54:30,279 Speaker 1: have to game plan everything around him and it still 1102 00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:32,880 Speaker 1: doesn't help. The man can literally take away the run 1103 00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:35,719 Speaker 1: game by himself, and he can pass rush. He's now 1104 00:54:35,920 --> 00:54:38,640 Speaker 1: you know, Terrence Cody was great because downstaid hut rah 1105 00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:40,640 Speaker 1: rah rah rah. Going forward, he can push you back. 1106 00:54:40,719 --> 00:54:46,080 Speaker 1: Jordan Davis is like quick, can change direction, unbelievably fast, 1107 00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:50,080 Speaker 1: and he's huge, and he's gonna be an unbelievable player 1108 00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:52,839 Speaker 1: in the NFL. Unbelievable. When they're gonna put him, they 1109 00:54:52,880 --> 00:54:56,040 Speaker 1: may put him into three. It's just some NFL DC. 1110 00:54:56,280 --> 00:54:57,879 Speaker 1: It's gonna be like a kid in the candy store. 1111 00:54:57,920 --> 00:55:00,320 Speaker 1: So give me Jordan Davis. What say you? That's a 1112 00:55:00,360 --> 00:55:02,680 Speaker 1: good pick. You know, I'll go Will Anderson Okaya, or 1113 00:55:02,760 --> 00:55:06,640 Speaker 1: maybe maybe we say Jordan Anderson. W Jordan. That's a 1114 00:55:06,680 --> 00:55:08,120 Speaker 1: good way to put it. Blame What about you? Is it? 1115 00:55:08,160 --> 00:55:12,160 Speaker 1: Shane Biemer? I wish no, I'd go Jordan Davis. What 1116 00:55:12,280 --> 00:55:14,319 Speaker 1: he does for that defensive line for Georgia. I mean 1117 00:55:14,360 --> 00:55:16,960 Speaker 1: he literally blocks up every gap. He literally almost blocks 1118 00:55:17,040 --> 00:55:18,480 Speaker 1: up every gap for that team. That's why the Kobe 1119 00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:20,160 Speaker 1: Deane he's just running around having the time of his life, 1120 00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:22,680 Speaker 1: making all the time. Nobody's had more fun than Kobe Dean. 1121 00:55:22,840 --> 00:55:24,759 Speaker 1: I just think Jordan Davis is, out of those two, 1122 00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:28,840 Speaker 1: the hardest person to replace. Yeah, I just think he is. No. 1123 00:55:28,960 --> 00:55:31,239 Speaker 1: I agree, and again it's that's the Inuitia. Will has 1124 00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:34,120 Speaker 1: been unbelievable pass rushing, he's versatile, he can drop. But 1125 00:55:34,200 --> 00:55:36,640 Speaker 1: I mean I think Jordan Davis could drop I think 1126 00:55:36,760 --> 00:55:39,040 Speaker 1: Jordan Davis could drop him play a low hoole zone 1127 00:55:39,080 --> 00:55:41,000 Speaker 1: and actually not be too bad. I watched him run 1128 00:55:41,120 --> 00:55:44,839 Speaker 1: down Tyler Johnson, the UAB quarterback, and Tyler's not Usain Bolt, 1129 00:55:45,040 --> 00:55:46,680 Speaker 1: but he's not slow. I thought it was Tyler in 1130 00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:49,440 Speaker 1: high school. He's not slow. No, not text to me 1131 00:55:49,520 --> 00:55:52,280 Speaker 1: actually that game and says that's still haunts his nightmare. 1132 00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:56,680 Speaker 1: That's the other boogeyman checks under his bed for Jordan Davis. 1133 00:55:56,960 --> 00:55:59,640 Speaker 1: All right, are on the best Track Award? This was 1134 00:55:59,680 --> 00:56:02,240 Speaker 1: so hard to pick between A and M and Arkansas, 1135 00:56:02,320 --> 00:56:04,120 Speaker 1: but I feel like the rebuild job at Arkansas was 1136 00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:06,360 Speaker 1: so much harder than A and M. I think A 1137 00:56:06,560 --> 00:56:08,440 Speaker 1: m's on a great track with Jimbo Fisher. Shout out 1138 00:56:08,440 --> 00:56:11,160 Speaker 1: our buddies at Texas, Billy Lucie, but I gotta go 1139 00:56:11,239 --> 00:56:15,160 Speaker 1: Sam Pittman hardest. Look, Arkansas probably had the hardest schedule 1140 00:56:15,200 --> 00:56:17,560 Speaker 1: in the country. You say Arkansas, you can say Auburn 1141 00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:22,719 Speaker 1: and you get eight wins seven eight wins year two. 1142 00:56:23,120 --> 00:56:24,640 Speaker 1: What do they get to combine eight wins like the 1143 00:56:24,719 --> 00:56:28,040 Speaker 1: four years before Chad Morriston couldn't win an inter squad game. 1144 00:56:29,040 --> 00:56:32,880 Speaker 1: But the way they're recruiting. Arkansas is back, and I 1145 00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:36,279 Speaker 1: like Texas back. I'm telling you, Arkansas is back, and 1146 00:56:36,400 --> 00:56:38,600 Speaker 1: they're a problem, and they're only gonna get better and 1147 00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:41,839 Speaker 1: better and better because they believe in Sam Pittman. When 1148 00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:44,560 Speaker 1: Sam Pittman believes in them, and he knows who they are, 1149 00:56:44,640 --> 00:56:46,799 Speaker 1: and they know who he is, and that's all you need. 1150 00:56:47,520 --> 00:56:49,120 Speaker 1: That's all you need. If I'm gonna ask you to 1151 00:56:49,160 --> 00:56:52,160 Speaker 1: go run into another full grown adult for sixty minutes, 1152 00:56:52,880 --> 00:56:54,680 Speaker 1: I better trust you, and I better love you. And 1153 00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:57,719 Speaker 1: they trust them, and they love them, and he loves 1154 00:56:57,800 --> 00:57:01,480 Speaker 1: them back. Maybe the best fit all of college football. Honestly, 1155 00:57:01,560 --> 00:57:04,319 Speaker 1: in my opinion, they're on a great track here in Arkansas. Fan, 1156 00:57:05,320 --> 00:57:07,520 Speaker 1: I mean, y'all a cook him with grease right now, Ella, 1157 00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:10,120 Speaker 1: cook him with grease. I love Sam Pittman, I love Arkansas, 1158 00:57:10,200 --> 00:57:12,600 Speaker 1: but I'm going Jimbo Fisher. I'm going amm Look, I 1159 00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:16,360 Speaker 1: think they've underperformed this season. Sam Pittman and Arkansas overperformed 1160 00:57:16,400 --> 00:57:18,960 Speaker 1: this season, But Jimbo is going to finish with one 1161 00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:22,280 Speaker 1: of the top recruiting classes in the country, and I 1162 00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:25,280 Speaker 1: think they are gonna use that win over Alabama and 1163 00:57:25,520 --> 00:57:28,960 Speaker 1: fuel them for the next two, three, four seasons. Give 1164 00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:30,840 Speaker 1: me Jimbo Fisher. I think he's going to be a 1165 00:57:30,920 --> 00:57:35,360 Speaker 1: problem here pretty soon, my boys. Shane Biemer, Yeah, I mean, 1166 00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:37,840 Speaker 1: I mean six and it looks there's six and six 1167 00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:41,320 Speaker 1: on the right track. And he's also doing what this 1168 00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:44,320 Speaker 1: guy is recruiting. He is recruited after they might have 1169 00:57:44,400 --> 00:57:47,280 Speaker 1: a top fifteen class. Like, come on, guys, he's bring 1170 00:57:47,400 --> 00:57:48,920 Speaker 1: maybe he's bringing it back, So I come on into 1171 00:57:48,960 --> 00:57:51,640 Speaker 1: this barrier. Days when they're winning, when they're beating who 1172 00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:55,480 Speaker 1: Bama they can and Clemson they can do that. They 1173 00:57:55,880 --> 00:57:58,920 Speaker 1: if you can go six and six with a jag quarterback, 1174 00:57:59,080 --> 00:58:01,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna see what you do when your players getting here. Yeah, 1175 00:58:01,760 --> 00:58:03,240 Speaker 1: I want to see what he went shade when they 1176 00:58:03,240 --> 00:58:05,560 Speaker 1: have you know guys that then weren't getting coffee for 1177 00:58:05,600 --> 00:58:08,360 Speaker 1: the coaches a week before the game, Like, hey, can 1178 00:58:08,400 --> 00:58:10,920 Speaker 1: you send zeb to my office for a minute? But no, 1179 00:58:11,080 --> 00:58:13,160 Speaker 1: I look, I think there's there's good arguments on all 1180 00:58:13,200 --> 00:58:17,400 Speaker 1: sides of that. All right, the Jackie Moon Awards Coach 1181 00:58:17,440 --> 00:58:27,840 Speaker 1: slash Player Award, there's only one guy, sab Nolan r 1182 00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:34,240 Speaker 1: s He's done around campus. Zultan defied all odds, Walk 1183 00:58:35,280 --> 00:58:38,240 Speaker 1: defied all odds to be the corpate and did not 1184 00:58:38,360 --> 00:58:40,800 Speaker 1: do a bad job. Did not do a bad He 1185 00:58:40,960 --> 00:58:43,040 Speaker 1: was better than a lot of quarterbacks around the country. 1186 00:58:43,760 --> 00:58:46,640 Speaker 1: But they asked him to go from ga to quarterback. 1187 00:58:47,600 --> 00:58:51,000 Speaker 1: You better hit that peloton pretty quick. Fam. But again, 1188 00:58:51,040 --> 00:58:54,720 Speaker 1: and something we've never seen. You know, we remember when 1189 00:58:54,760 --> 00:58:57,360 Speaker 1: Bobby Bouchet went to SCLSU and then Michigan tried to 1190 00:58:57,400 --> 00:58:59,760 Speaker 1: do the tower. Boy, how that works when he went 1191 00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:03,400 Speaker 1: across the middle, didn't work, destroyed.

Yes 1197 00:59:22,520 --> 00:59:24,200 Speaker 1: he's in the throwing motion with a helmet on, but 1198 00:59:24,240 --> 00:59:27,160 Speaker 1: with a clipboard.

If the Vandy looked days, 1210 01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:09,680 Speaker 1: you would fall up to work them in baseball, and 1211 01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:12,600 Speaker 1: they haven't exactly been lightening up in basketball. I remember 1212 01:00:12,640 --> 01:00:14,960 Speaker 1: when Vandy had Kevin Stallings and it was a nightmare 1213 01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:17,240 Speaker 1: going there. They had like Luke Cornett who was eight 1214 01:00:17,280 --> 01:00:20,480 Speaker 1: foot four shooting threes. You really want to let Stanford 1215 01:00:20,480 --> 01:00:23,120 Speaker 1: win the chess championship every single year. Listen, they can 1216 01:00:23,200 --> 01:00:26,520 Speaker 1: have it.

You're making all of us look. Yeah, 1220 01:00:35,600 --> 01:00:38,000 Speaker 1: it's like I said, they're the person that is part 1221 01:00:38,040 --> 01:00:41,800 Speaker 1: of your family that nobody wants to in our the 1222 01:00:41,920 --> 01:00:44,080 Speaker 1: family gets there and like your family game is like 1223 01:00:44,160 --> 01:00:47,120 Speaker 1: pictionary or whatever, and like nobody wants to pick him 1224 01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:49,680 Speaker 1: because he's just terrible at it. That's what Vandy is. 1225 01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:51,920 Speaker 1: But you have to invite him because they're part of 1226 01:00:51,960 --> 01:00:54,200 Speaker 1: the family.

Well in the 1240 01:01:38,040 --> 01:01:42,400 Speaker 1: ac you can be a decent looking duck. Hello. Hell, 1241 01:01:42,760 --> 01:01:46,160 Speaker 1: you go to the MAC you might look like Gordon Bombay. 1242 01:01:46,600 --> 01:01:51,439 Speaker 1: You want to talk about it easier way to the playoffs. Yeah, yeah, 1243 01:01:52,400 --> 01:01:54,440 Speaker 1: but I would like to formally. I would like to 1244 01:01:54,560 --> 01:01:58,360 Speaker 1: formally put forth a notion if it can be heard. 1245 01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:02,880 Speaker 1: There's no objections Underbilt too. Quietly get the hell out 1246 01:02:03,320 --> 01:02:06,120 Speaker 1: of the SEC at least in football. You know what, 1247 01:02:06,400 --> 01:02:09,160 Speaker 1: take football out there. That happens. We see that around 1248 01:02:09,800 --> 01:02:14,400 Speaker 1: the Syracuse in nine different conferences Syracuse like the Siamese 1249 01:02:14,480 --> 01:02:17,560 Speaker 1: twin of NC Double A. I don't want to hear 1250 01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:20,280 Speaker 1: from Jake when Stanford wins six chess championships in a 1251 01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:22,200 Speaker 1: rows like, man, we gotta put a stop. Well, you know, 1252 01:02:22,320 --> 01:02:25,120 Speaker 1: Vanny just hired Bobby Fisher. They were searching for him. 1253 01:02:25,160 --> 01:02:28,800 Speaker 1: Turns out they found him. So the Ugly Duckling Award 1254 01:02:28,880 --> 01:02:33,080 Speaker 1: goes to Vanderbilt. Uh again, sorry, guys, I mean, how 1255 01:02:34,080 --> 01:02:36,240 Speaker 1: do you lose the East Tennessee State and then go 1256 01:02:36,320 --> 01:02:41,320 Speaker 1: beat Colorado State. I don't get it. I don't want 1257 01:02:41,360 --> 01:02:45,920 Speaker 1: good because I bet Colorado States. That's exactly the third exactly, 1258 01:02:46,640 --> 01:02:48,360 Speaker 1: that's exactly right. You know, that's how to do I 1259 01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:50,200 Speaker 1: how to wait and just take your third leg of 1260 01:02:50,280 --> 01:02:53,840 Speaker 1: parlais and put all the money on the opposite. Maybe 1261 01:02:53,880 --> 01:02:55,680 Speaker 1: that's the trick. Show me a pie chart because I 1262 01:02:55,720 --> 01:02:57,760 Speaker 1: want to see the third leg that never hit.
