Ralph. Um, 37 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: the games are going on clearly for everybody else, and 38 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 1: I just want to touch touch on super quick. Everybody 39 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,640 Speaker 1: is upset with Kevin Warren over in the Big ten 40 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: for like now, they've had a game canceled because Wisconsin 41 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 1: has had an outbreak there. Uh, their players, the six 42 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: who have tested positive up to this point are out 43 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 1: for twenty one days pending medical evaluations and all of that. 44 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: We found out that the pack twelves UH that they're 45 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: sit out of mandates are less than the twenty one days. 46 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: But like, what, what's your take on how everybody gets 47 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 1: criticizing Kevin Warren about Nebraska not getting to play. You 48 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:19,079 Speaker 1: teach Chattanooga after they've said that, you teach Chattanooga. Hell, 49 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 1: they have more stringent protocols than the Big Ten, but 50 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: they won't let them play. I think that criticisms of 51 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: Kevin Warren are typically unwarranted and emotional. It's just people 52 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: emoting and it's hard to hear what people are actually 53 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: saying through just the tears and the baby babble um 54 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: that happens in the Big Ten sometimes. But if you 55 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: teach Chattanooga wants to play, in Nebraska wants to play, 56 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: I think your first instinct should be can we find 57 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: a way, and then if the answers know the answers, no, um, 58 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 1: but dropping the hammer on people trying to make this work, uh, 59 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 1: I think it maybe warrants some some criticism. Um, But 60 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 1: at the same time, I get anybody who's fatigued by 61 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:26,239 Speaker 1: Nebraska just being the whiniest voice out there. Yeah, see, 62 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 1: I disagree with I agree with the fact of Nebraska 63 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 1: being the whiniest voice because I tweeted earlier I was like, 64 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 1: Nebraska is the Big Tens rebellious child that that they 65 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: they just want to do whatever it is that they 66 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 1: want to do. They want to eat ice cream in 67 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: the morning, and you have to tell them no. The 68 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 1: only reason I get wanting to play games. But we 69 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 1: saw from last week where the Big Tens two games 70 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 1: that were on in in uh in primetime in Nebraska, 71 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 1: Ohio State game in the Michigan UM in the Michigan game, 72 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,840 Speaker 1: where the two highest rated games in terms of viewership 73 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 1: of the weekend. The Big Ten is the most watched conference. 74 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 1: So like, so, if you're the Big Tent, are you 75 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 1: willing to sacrifice you You've already lost the Wisconsin Nebraska game, 76 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: but are you willing to sacrifice Nebraska potentially playing against you? 77 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,280 Speaker 1: Tea Chattanoogat know everybody tested negative and all this stuff, 78 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:34,479 Speaker 1: but people traveling, people interacting from the different schools and 79 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: the different teams, which just puts you at a little 80 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: bit of elevated risk, which then can put another big 81 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 1: ten game in jeopardy, which then messes up the money 82 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 1: for just a little bit of cash for the school Nebraska. 83 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:53,559 Speaker 1: I just don't see it as a worthwhile UM risk 84 00:05:54,360 --> 00:06:00,159 Speaker 1: when the when it's not gonna benefit the conference as 85 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 1: a whole, Like if they were scheduling a game, like 86 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 1: if if Tennessee just just to use U T S. 87 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 1: If you if Tennessee had gotten their game canceled and 88 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 1: Nebraska was trying to play Tennessee, that seems like a 89 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: more worthwhile matchup for the conference in general than it 90 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: just does for for Tennessee. I'm sorry then it does 91 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 1: for just Nebraska trying to get a free win versus 92 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 1: you teach Chattanooga. Yeah, I mean, but if you teach 93 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 1: Chattan it's FCS school too. But if they wanted, if, 94 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: I mean, that could be big. That could be a 95 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:47,600 Speaker 1: big moment for for all those UT Chattanooga UM kids. 96 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: You know, I went to a game. I went to 97 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: a high school game last Saturday, and it was between UM. 98 00:06:56,240 --> 00:07:01,160 Speaker 1: There's a city in south central Arizona called Eloy. It's 99 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 1: got like a prison nearby, and I think that kind 100 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: of drives economy. It's a real small town and they 101 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 1: have a two A school, which means, you know, they 102 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 1: only have like a couple hundred kids at their school. 103 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: And they challenged the number three team in all of 104 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: four A when both of their um opponents dropped out 105 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 1: due to COVID restrictions. So I went out there on 106 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: a Saturday night and I watched the number three team 107 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 1: in for A, which is like, you know, hundred person 108 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: schools play the number one team in two A, and 109 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 1: they gave them just an absolute hell of a fight 110 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 1: and it was a really fun time and the kids 111 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 1: got to play some football, and ultimately, that's all they 112 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: really wanted to be able to do, was to put 113 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 1: some stuff on film and be given a chance. And so, 114 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: you know, I respected that one real small school wanted 115 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 1: to step up and take on any and all challenges 116 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 1: because they knew that it would make them better, because 117 00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 1: they knew that football wasn't guaranteed for tomorrow, and that 118 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 1: the athletic directors of those schools found a way to 119 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 1: make it happen. It ended up being kind of a 120 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 1: really special moment um, But then the purity of that 121 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 1: gets taken away when it's college football and you're talking 122 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: about Nebraska versus U T Chat Newgat And I don't 123 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 1: see why you can't look at it in the same 124 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: vein of like you respect that somebody would reach out 125 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 1: to Nebraska and say like, hey, we want some and 126 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 1: then respect the fact that Nebraska is willing to give 127 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 1: him some. And I get that there's there's a context 128 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 1: of you know, Nebraska just kind of being difficult regardless. Um, 129 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 1: but at the end of the day, I want to 130 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 1: see these kids play football, and they want to play football, 131 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 1: and I think that trying to find a way to 132 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 1: facilitate it. And then if you run into the idea 133 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: that it might not be the best thing for everybody involved, 134 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: you can back out. But this it sounds more like 135 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 1: it was just like, no, we're not doing this, and 136 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 1: and I don't respect that. We'll see. The only reason 137 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: why I respect it's just because you have to look 138 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 1: at the bigger picture. And then like and if if Nebrada, 139 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:09,440 Speaker 1: if a player from Nebraska messes around and gets COVID 140 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:12,560 Speaker 1: or something, and then they actually have to cancel the 141 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 1: next week of a Big Ten game, Hell nobody. Yeah, 142 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,719 Speaker 1: it's not worth it at that point. He came here 143 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 1: to play football and not play pandemic. So I'm not 144 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: gonna be mad at people for trying to focus on 145 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 1: trying to get on the field. But somebody has to 146 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 1: be the bad guy, and that's Kevin Warrent. Somebody's got 147 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 1: to be the adult in in the room. And that 148 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 1: was the Big Ten and that's where And granted this 149 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: same situation could come up in the Pac twelve. This 150 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 1: is why the whole reason for the discussion, because what 151 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: if this happens to USC or Oregon or Arizona State 152 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: or or any of these other schools, are the team's 153 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: going to be willing to do it? And I've said, 154 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 1: like from from a jump, like it's in saying to 155 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 1: me that the Big Ten, because there have been so 156 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 1: many people that have said that, oh, the Big Ten. 157 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,439 Speaker 1: They messed up by waiting so long they couldn't ever 158 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 1: buy a week and all of this, And I was like, 159 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: it's insane to me that the Big Ten and the 160 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 1: Pack twelve conferences are we're erroring on the side of 161 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 1: safety when people's lives are at risk, Like, how is 162 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 1: that controversial? And that granted that the percentage of people 163 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 1: that die, like most people are ninety uh supposed to 164 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 1: survive from it, but we don't know all the long 165 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 1: term health effects. And I love football more than probably 166 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: most people who quote unquote say that they're fans. And 167 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 1: we've talked about it about playing trying to play as 168 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 1: the right answer as long as they are the proper 169 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:56,079 Speaker 1: protocols in place, cardiac screening for players and all of that. 170 00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: But I just it's we're easy for these multimillionaire coaches, administrators, 171 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 1: networks and everybody to demand that played, that games get 172 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:12,560 Speaker 1: played by unpaid labor, and like, yes, the kids want 173 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 1: to play, but this is a different situation than the NFL, 174 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 1: where they have a union and all of that. The 175 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 1: only people who well, the only people that are protecting 176 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 1: these kids supposedly are the people who are the people 177 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:34,439 Speaker 1: who are financially enriched by the games being played. Yeah, 178 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:36,680 Speaker 1: So I just I hate all of this. It's everybody's 179 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: always just trying to make the best bad decision. That's 180 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 1: what has become everybody in every situation is trying to 181 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 1: make the best bad decision, and the worst thing that 182 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: it feels like you can be in is anybody with 183 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: any decision making power because everybody else is just sitting 184 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: around without anything to do because of COVID, and they're 185 00:11:55,920 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: filling up that time by uh either starting everyone's either 186 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 1: starting a podcast or becoming a professional critic. I've seen. 187 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 1: That's all I've seen as an uptick in in podcasts 188 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 1: and criticism. You're right about that. Um, well, there there 189 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:18,200 Speaker 1: was some new production going on in the back twelfth. Uh. 190 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 1: There was a USC video which I will put the 191 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 1: link to in the description of the podcast. USC put 192 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 1: out a what would you call this video? It was 193 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 1: like a from because they weren't selling anything besides trying 194 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 1: to sell the USC brand. It was a felt It 195 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 1: was like a very much like a early nineties music 196 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 1: video where there was a story lead in and then 197 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 1: the actual music video. They put together something that you 198 00:12:54,400 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 1: would have seen on like TRL. Yes, yep, good. That's 199 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 1: a good way to to describe it. Because the the 200 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 1: USC in it was very I mean it was prominent, 201 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 1: but it was still very subtle. Like it wasn't like, hey, yo, 202 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 1: come to USC. It was like, oh no, this is 203 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 1: just how us USC roles. I mean the video features 204 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,080 Speaker 1: so there is in the beginning of the video, there 205 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:27,200 Speaker 1: is a um they're like coaches arriving in a in 206 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:32,679 Speaker 1: a helicopter and then somebody's driving in McLaren, a yellow McLaren. 207 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 1: And then they go up to this house, this mansion 208 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,079 Speaker 1: that is on you know, one one of the ones 209 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 1: where has a great view of Los Angeles. They showed 210 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 1: a Hollywood sign all of this stuff and you got um, 211 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 1: amand ros st Brown, Elijah Griffin, other current players actually 212 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 1: up there with Clay Helton, Carrie Colbert, Dante Williams. Everybody 213 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:03,680 Speaker 1: party and some of the uh their cheerleaders. They're partying 214 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 1: at this house like this is how we do in 215 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 1: l A. And then at the end they have, um, 216 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:14,680 Speaker 1: what's what's the kid to play for the Titans? Number 217 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 1: A Dorry Jackson. They have a Dorry Jackson. They have 218 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 1: Juju Swift's Schuster appearance. Yeah. Yeah, so they their their 219 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 1: name dropping but but not like but but you have 220 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 1: to be in the know to know who these people 221 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: are too, you know what I mean, Like you have 222 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 1: to be part of the cool crowd. Like they're not 223 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: gonna put any captions underneath and tell you who these 224 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 1: people are. That wouldn't be cool. So I gets a 225 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:44,840 Speaker 1: pool party, everybody's having fun. Clay Helton's flipping burgers on 226 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: the on the on the grill. I mean, I thought 227 00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 1: it was a very well produced video, but at the 228 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 1: end I was wondering. I was like, Yeah, this lifestyle 229 00:14:56,120 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 1: looks great, but is this an enough to sell kids 230 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 1: on going to USC? And I'm gonna ask my fourteen 231 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 1: year old son to watch the video. I should have 232 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 1: asked him even a bit before the podcast to watch 233 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 1: this video and tell me if this would make him 234 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 1: want to go to USC. I mean, it's it's fun 235 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 1: and it's good and it's well made. And what it's 236 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 1: trying to signal to everyone is you will not be 237 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 1: more ahead of the curve for the name, image and likeness, 238 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 1: uh branding self branding revolution that's coming. Then you will 239 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:39,600 Speaker 1: be in Los Angeles where everybody's a brand, right and 240 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 1: and there. But do you believe that? Though? Um well, 241 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 1: I mean the proof is in what so this is 242 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 1: part of it? Like this is the first step, right 243 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 1: and then? And what did they do? Let's take let's 244 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:58,400 Speaker 1: take a look. They brought alumni in, They prominently featured 245 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 1: current players on the team. My brain almost fell out 246 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 1: of my skull when I saw a little desert Mountain 247 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 1: High School. Keaton slovis out front, featured prominently in a 248 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 1: hip hop music video with his teammates, where he's dancing, 249 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 1: throwing the football, he's got a tucks on in the theater, 250 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 1: hanging out with Matt Leinert. Like the idea that Keithan 251 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 1: Slobs went from being somebody who they didn't even name 252 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 1: the starter last year to fourteen months later being front 253 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 1: and center in a usc music video is mind blowing. 254 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 1: So they got current players, they got pass players, They 255 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 1: featured the city with drone footage. They painted a picture 256 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 1: of a party atmosphere even though nobody's partying like this 257 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 1: in l A right now getting the police called on 258 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 1: them door. That's probably the funniest part of this is 259 00:16:56,960 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 1: there's like no hint of COVID anywhere. Um, you can't 260 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 1: do any of these damn things in l A right now. 261 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:08,879 Speaker 1: Your your your neighbors will call the police on you. 262 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 1: Like yeah, and I you had the fast cars, you had, 263 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 1: the pool, you had, the burgers, you had, you had 264 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:25,959 Speaker 1: Clay Hilton prominently featured and they even said Boulevard Bound, 265 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: a film by coach Clay Hilton at the end, so 266 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 1: they made it look like he was the driving force 267 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,919 Speaker 1: behind this entire thing. Um. And then the other really 268 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:38,399 Speaker 1: interesting thing about this is and you you don't know 269 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 1: unless you know, but they had a bunch of Instagram 270 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 1: influencers as extras. They had a girl named Sydney Goodman 271 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 1: who does stuff for the i g TV, the video 272 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: game like gaming network. She was the red carpet host 273 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:54,640 Speaker 1: and then they had her in like a low cut 274 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:58,360 Speaker 1: dress playing video games of the player. She She's got 275 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 1: two d thousand followers on Instagram. They also had a 276 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 1: Pressley Tenant and Chloe Tess Miller who have a combined 277 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:15,959 Speaker 1: um followers on Instagram. So they're they're using Instagram influencers, 278 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 1: They're they're using the city, Um, they're using the players, 279 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 1: they're using the past players. Everything about this was fantastic. 280 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,879 Speaker 1: I think it's it will be an effective thing in 281 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,240 Speaker 1: that people want watch it and say like, oh, like 282 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 1: that's that's somewhere where I would want to be. They 283 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,199 Speaker 1: have to take in consideration that, like you said, you 284 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 1: literally can't do these things right now, which is funny, um, 285 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 1: and then not funny, it's terrible. I'm sorry, um, but 286 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,960 Speaker 1: you can't do these things right now. And also, uh, 287 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:49,719 Speaker 1: that head coach that was prominently featured throughout the entirety 288 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 1: of this video is somebody that of the fan base 289 00:18:52,760 --> 00:19:01,280 Speaker 1: wants gone yesterday. The That's the crazy part about is that. Okay, 290 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,959 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, this usc video, I 291 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 1: think it can be positive and actually do some good 292 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: in selling the brand. Right. But I but Clay Helton 293 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 1: has to win. Clay Helton has to win. And this 294 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 1: video was not cheap, was not cheap at all. Like this, 295 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:31,159 Speaker 1: This is a very very expensive video. And this was 296 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:36,359 Speaker 1: three minutes of expensiveness Hunter Hunter Grand type type expensiveness. 297 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 1: And I'm just sitting here thinking, I'm I'm like, wow, 298 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:45,959 Speaker 1: this means a further commitment to Clay Hilton. Right, you 299 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 1: have to be totally committed because this video is this 300 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 1: video has a sure a shelf life if you fire him, 301 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,520 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Like this video. They made 302 00:19:57,520 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 1: this video leading into last year. They would have it 303 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,360 Speaker 1: would feature a quarterback who's no longer at the school 304 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:08,160 Speaker 1: exactly so that I'm I know that they're very confident 305 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 1: in Keating Slovis, even if Keating Slovis got hurt. The 306 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 1: video would still be you could still use it. If 307 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 1: Elijah Griffin, you could still use the video. But this 308 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 1: I mean, like, if Clay Helton goes three and three 309 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 1: in the conference, do they fire him and just blow 310 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 1: the video up? I mean seriously, like the thing that 311 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 1: you were planning on using the video for, which is 312 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,880 Speaker 1: a recruiting tool to try to sell name, image and likeness. 313 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,800 Speaker 1: If he goes three and three, fans are gonna be 314 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 1: piste and demanding be fired. So that like even if 315 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 1: he loses Game one, like this video is a waste, 316 00:20:55,880 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 1: right if he loses the Arizona State at nine nine am, 317 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 1: USC fans are gonna be calling for his head, no 318 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:05,680 Speaker 1: matter pandemic, how much money they owe them, They're not 319 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,679 Speaker 1: gonna give a damn. Yeah, but you see what you 320 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 1: want to see. If your recruit and you're watching that video, 321 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 1: your your your eyes aren't lighting up every time Clay 322 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 1: Helton's on screen flipping Burgers.

Your eyes light up when 326 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 1: you see a pool party when you're not allowed to 327 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:32,200 Speaker 1: go to pool parties. Um, you know you see Keaton 328 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 1: Slovis QB one out there in a Dodgers jersey when 329 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:38,440 Speaker 1: they just won a world championship in a sixty game 330 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 1: season as risk. But like you know that you're gonna 331 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 1: feel how you feel about this. It's it'll you and 332 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:48,199 Speaker 1: I will be able to laugh about the fact that 333 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 1: this video is out there. But a kid's gonna watch 334 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 1: this video and then they're not They're not going to 335 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,720 Speaker 1: be looking at it for Clay Helton. They're gonna be 336 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: looking at it for you know, all of all of 337 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,399 Speaker 1: the other things. And and so I don't know. I 338 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:01,480 Speaker 1: think I think they don't know who's going to be 339 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:11,119 Speaker 1: their head coach, right, but I don't know. Production value 340 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 1: you're gonna get. You're gonna get me to say something 341 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,679 Speaker 1: that's gonna give us some trouble. So I'm should I 342 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,920 Speaker 1: all right, go go go ahead, say it, Go ahead 343 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 1: say it. You can put this as an independent production, 344 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:26,040 Speaker 1: all right. Man. You we got a television president, we 345 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:29,200 Speaker 1: got it. We got a guy who most people knew 346 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 1: from his self promotion, his appearances and magazines and the 347 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 1: game show that he ran on TV, A game show 348 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:39,720 Speaker 1: that I watched and that I liked very much, especially 349 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 1: the celebrity episodes for the seasons UM where my dude 350 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:47,919 Speaker 1: from poison UH ended up winning it all. Like I 351 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 1: watched that show, I enjoyed it. Key got name recognition 352 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:56,160 Speaker 1: and brand recognition from being on a screen in front 353 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 1: of people's faces. The video is about USC more than 354 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 1: it was about out Clay Hilton. It serves its purpose 355 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:04,800 Speaker 1: in the immediate because it shows them as one big, 356 00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:07,879 Speaker 1: happy family. So if you're a recruit and you're seeing 357 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 1: all the fans whine about how they don't want him around, 358 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:11,919 Speaker 1: but you see that the players like him and that 359 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 1: he can kick back and everything like that, then that's 360 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 1: gonna assuage your fears in the immediacy. But I don't 361 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 1: think people who commit to USC are committing there because 362 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 1: of the head coach. They're probably doing it in spite 363 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: of it at this point. And so you know, I 364 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 1: don't I don't know. I think it was effective. I 365 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:33,440 Speaker 1: think you put those images on screen. They influence people 366 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 1: the exact way that you want them to to influence people. 367 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 1: People are influenced by what they see in media, the 368 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,399 Speaker 1: images that they're shown, and and like I said, like 369 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 1: we have a we we gotta we got a president 370 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 1: from the TV. We had a president from the movies, 371 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:54,000 Speaker 1: uh thirty years ago. It's if you can get out 372 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 1: there in front of people, they'll eat it up. And you, 373 00:23:57,560 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 1: like I said, you and I have the benefit of 374 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 1: knowing and maybe been fooled once or twice by seeing 375 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,440 Speaker 1: something and then buying into it and realizing it wasn't 376 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 1: all it was cracked up to be. But everybody's got 377 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 1: to learn that lesson for themselves. And if I'm if 378 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:14,280 Speaker 1: I'm a sixteen year old, I'm watching that video. That's 379 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 1: the best thing that I've seen in months. See, I'm 380 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:24,879 Speaker 1: I'm interested to see how this is going to affect recruiting, 381 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 1: the name, image and likeness stuff. I'm very curious about that. 382 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 1: Because Alabama's in Tuscaloosa. There is Georgia, who is in Athens, 383 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 1: but it's not too far from Atlanta. Can what will 384 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:45,280 Speaker 1: this boost Georgia texts recruiting? Will it boost Miami's? I 385 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:49,040 Speaker 1: mean will the big cities actually, because it's different than 386 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:54,160 Speaker 1: professional sports, where the majority of the best teams are 387 00:24:54,200 --> 00:25:00,200 Speaker 1: in are in small towns like will will watching can 388 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 1: benefit and usc benefit recruiting will it hurt Oregon in 389 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 1: Eugene or will the small schools like Eugene, tuscalo Well 390 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:17,280 Speaker 1: in small cities Eugene, Tuscaloosa. You have you know Athens, Georgia, 391 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,920 Speaker 1: UM Clemson, South Carolina where there's less than like ten 392 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 1: thousand people, will will will Syracuse? I mean, I know 393 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:30,880 Speaker 1: it's not near New York City, but but still like, 394 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: will you know, Northwestern get a bump because will schools 395 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:41,400 Speaker 1: near Chicago or get a bump or near big cities 396 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:46,359 Speaker 1: versus the small towns or will it still be exactly 397 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,919 Speaker 1: the way it is because those schools have such strong 398 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:53,040 Speaker 1: fan bases that that the kids are gonna be able 399 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:58,080 Speaker 1: to generate money in those places because those schools get 400 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,239 Speaker 1: such national coverage. And then you have a school like 401 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 1: Oregon who has a national brand, and then they have Nike, 402 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,680 Speaker 1: so it's like they can put their players out wherever 403 00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 1: they are. So I wonder how big of an impact 404 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,399 Speaker 1: it's gonna have. I think that you use what you 405 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:16,639 Speaker 1: got and if you have the ability to market what 406 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 1: makes you unique, UM that I think we'll see some 407 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: really cool stuff. I think as you put a video 408 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 1: out the other UM a few weeks ago and you 409 00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,000 Speaker 1: and I probably even touched about on it when they 410 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 1: were like you can go out and you can see 411 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 1: Devin Booker play courtside, which again you can't because they're 412 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:35,920 Speaker 1: in a bubble in Florida at the time. But like 413 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:39,680 Speaker 1: you know that there everybody's kind of using what they've got. 414 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:41,639 Speaker 1: And the the cool thing about the Pact Wealth Cities 415 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 1: is that they're all unique. You might not have an 416 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 1: ocean nearby, but if you got a lake, you know 417 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:49,879 Speaker 1: you it appealed to the people like you and me, 418 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 1: George were lake people, even though you live by the ocean. 419 00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm definitely a guy. Yeah. So I mean 420 00:26:56,760 --> 00:27:00,200 Speaker 1: if I saw if I saw images you know they 421 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 1: have like drone shots of people hiking on Mount Hood 422 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 1: or whatever. You know, they could do um for Oregon 423 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:10,879 Speaker 1: or you know, if if University of Washington decided to 424 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 1: like bring a camera down and watch people throw fish 425 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 1: and just have players like enjoying it in the background. 426 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,199 Speaker 1: Like there's a million different things that you could do. 427 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 1: It just it opens up so many possibilities to discover 428 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 1: your own unique identity and then market it to other people. 429 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:32,120 Speaker 1: Um and this this so this company that USC used 430 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 1: is out of Dallas, and so you're gonna see people 431 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,919 Speaker 1: just going to the best UM branding and ad agencies 432 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 1: and people and and you're just gonna see a ton 433 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 1: of money dumped into that. Now would be a really 434 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 1: good time if you're young and creative to find a 435 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:50,639 Speaker 1: way to pick up a handheld camera and UM and 436 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 1: and find a way to make ordinary things look marketable 437 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 1: so that you can get on at one of these 438 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 1: firms or perhaps even start your own, because that's the 439 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:03,360 Speaker 1: future of of you know, the ways that the colleges 440 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:07,360 Speaker 1: market themselves, those stuffy commercials that they play UM at halftime, 441 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 1: like come to Perdue and it just shows like a 442 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 1: few diverse students standing out in front of the campus 443 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: and then the stock footage from on looking through a microscope. 444 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,639 Speaker 1: You know that the days of that are are gone. 445 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 1: You know, UM, it's gonna be a lot more ethospace storytelling. 446 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:28,720 Speaker 1: It's going to find a way to to to you know, 447 00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 1: get you going. And there's a bunch of you know, 448 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,200 Speaker 1: there's stuff that you could do with an iPhone now 449 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 1: that you know that you you couldn't do with just 450 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,320 Speaker 1: a regular uh set up to film some of these 451 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 1: commercials that's that were you know going on in the 452 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:43,920 Speaker 1: in the mid two thousand's, Um that some some of 453 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 1: which they still run today. So I don't know. I 454 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 1: think it's a good thing. I think that it will 455 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 1: certainly serve its purpose. I think it's the best thing 456 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:55,239 Speaker 1: that any Packed twelve school has done so far. And 457 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 1: I think that it sets a pretty cool bar for 458 00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 1: some really entertaining off to to come out. But yeah, 459 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 1: you're you're gonna have egg on your face with some 460 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 1: of this stuff because the transfer portals right there are 461 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 1: free transfers right there. Um, you know, if these players 462 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 1: don't get their way, they're gone. Like we said before 463 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 1: last season, that would have a completely different quarterbacks starring 464 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 1: in that video. Yeah, and you do have to win. 465 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 1: I mean, at the end of the day, like you 466 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 1: can make I mean, it's not always the quote unquote 467 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 1: unquote coolest thing that goes viral. It's not the most 468 00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 1: well produced video that goes viral and and makes people stars. 469 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 1: Like the cash Me Outside. How about that girl like 470 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 1: she was just on Dr Pield. Nobody thought it would 471 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 1: turn into bad Bad Barbie, bad Baby, whatever her name is. 472 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 1: You you just don't know all the time, what's gonna 473 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 1: catch so like, yes, this is a big deal, but 474 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 1: they still have to put some substance behind the fluff 475 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 1: and the substances the winds and if they don't produce 476 00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 1: the win ends, they can make fifty million videos. They 477 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 1: can get Boulevard, They can get George Lucas to make 478 00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:10,360 Speaker 1: a Star Wars video. They can get Michael Bay out 479 00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:13,000 Speaker 1: here in l A to make a Transformer Steamed video. 480 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:18,120 Speaker 1: They can get every star that they want. They can 481 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 1: get Snoop in the videos. They can get Will Farrell 482 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: whoever else they want. If they don't produce Wins, it 483 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 1: means nothing. They will still get a few recruits, but 484 00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 1: they'll be there. They'll still be pulling in two star alignement, 485 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 1: three star alignement, hoping to develop them. I mean that, 486 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,000 Speaker 1: and the kids will still be defecting to other places. 487 00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 1: Um uh. Well, we talked about Stanford and their issue 488 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 1: with food and their issue with how they treat their 489 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,640 Speaker 1: players with their housing and everything. There is a team 490 00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 1: in the Pack twelve that's doing the complete opposite Ralph, 491 00:30:56,800 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 1: that is U c l A. U c l A 492 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 1: is putting straight cash homie into their meals and I 493 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:10,880 Speaker 1: like it. I am all in on them. Spending bread 494 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 1: on it. It just it just the numbers just seemed 495 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 1: so far out of whack. Come on, man, compared to 496 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 1: the other schools. Dude. So uh they spent what was 497 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:27,240 Speaker 1: it five point Yeah, they spent five point four million 498 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 1: dollars on non travel in twenty nineteen on non travel meals. 499 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 1: That's the next That was that the whole So this 500 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 1: is what I'm trying to that's for football. Yes, that's 501 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 1: for football. And they ran an eighteen million dollar deficits 502 00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: last year. Yes, right, so here, So here are the numbers. 503 00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 1: U C l A at number one, five point four million, 504 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:55,480 Speaker 1: Arizona to twelve one point two million, Oregon, nine hundred 505 00:31:55,520 --> 00:32:00,720 Speaker 1: and fifty one thousand, Oregon State eight twelve Cal seven, 506 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 1: Utah seven five A s U seven fifty four you 507 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 1: dubbed six seventy, Colorado four eight, Wazoo three and then 508 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:18,040 Speaker 1: the only people that aren't in there are USC and 509 00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 1: UM Stanford. I would imagine that USC is closer to 510 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:26,959 Speaker 1: the upper tier of this just because they're in Los Angeles. 511 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 1: Stuff costs a little bit more too, so I would 512 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 1: expect them to be around that, around the million mark 513 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 1: somewhere around there. Maybe a tabit more. But and then 514 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 1: I would put Stanford probably near Wazoo, probably at the 515 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 1: at the very bottom could considering what we know about 516 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 1: them and their food accommodations. So they're probably last, if 517 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 1: not close to last. But they shouldn't be last just 518 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:58,920 Speaker 1: because they're in California and stuff is more expensive. But still, like, 519 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 1: so was your take when you saw that U. C 520 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 1: l a Spent three times more than well, actually more 521 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 1: than three times more than the next closest team. I 522 00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:16,720 Speaker 1: thought it was insane. It's completely insane, man. They spent 523 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:24,560 Speaker 1: five point four million dollars on food. Hat Like, were 524 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 1: they just straight up eating caviar on everything? My wife, 525 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 1: my wife is at stakes. My wife said, wingstop right now, 526 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:38,320 Speaker 1: getting me my usual like eleven dollar eight piece lemon 527 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 1: pepper meal. Uh, you could get that same meal four 528 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:47,440 Speaker 1: hundred and nine one thousand times. You don't want to 529 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,360 Speaker 1: be feeding your players that row. You might not want 530 00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:51,840 Speaker 1: to be feeding your players, but you can feed them 531 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:56,240 Speaker 1: something real good for eleven bucks. You can't feed a 532 00:33:56,480 --> 00:34:00,280 Speaker 1: freaking football player for eleven bucks. Would a quality you 533 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:04,000 Speaker 1: can too? You can make them a big like uh, 534 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:08,360 Speaker 1: you can get them a protein with a salad. And 535 00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:11,760 Speaker 1: what kind of protein are you getting you? You aren't 536 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:17,520 Speaker 1: getting no step for uh, grass fed beef. You are 537 00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 1: getting uh that doesn't have that's antibiotic and hormone free, 538 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 1: bubb prime cut. These kids aren't eating choice. They're making 539 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:29,440 Speaker 1: millions of dollars for everybody body else. They don't get choice, 540 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:34,320 Speaker 1: they get they get the real deal holy Field, Ralph. Yeah, 541 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:39,920 Speaker 1: they got Ostrich, Burger's, wild board and venison. And on 542 00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:44,000 Speaker 1: top of that, you know what else. They spent to 543 00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 1: import five barbecue meals from an Arizona restaurant. You don't 544 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:52,080 Speaker 1: got barbecue in l A, George, I would have gone 545 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 1: to Blue Sow's, which is one of the best barbecue 546 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:57,520 Speaker 1: places in the country. Shameless blood. You're you're telling me, 547 00:34:57,680 --> 00:34:59,880 Speaker 1: you're telling me what can you get for eleven bucks? 548 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:04,080 Speaker 1: They bought hundreds and hundreds of peanut butter and jelly 549 00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:07,080 Speaker 1: sandwiches at five bucks a pop from an l A caterer. 550 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:11,759 Speaker 1: That's too much for peanut butter and jelly sandwich. You 551 00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:14,080 Speaker 1: get the jar. You get the jar of Jeff and 552 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 1: the jar of smuckers. You don't get it. We don't 553 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:23,320 Speaker 1: get it. I got four kids, so you and so 554 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:26,520 Speaker 1: so you want to feed people who are making millions 555 00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 1: of dollars like feed so instead of feeding them like 556 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:35,879 Speaker 1: the high quality athletes that they are and feeding them 557 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:39,800 Speaker 1: high quality fuel because Chip Kelly is all about fuel. 558 00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:47,000 Speaker 1: Like he feeds the kids good okay dollars from barbecue 559 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:52,239 Speaker 1: from Arizona. Probably a little too much. However, I will look, 560 00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:55,799 Speaker 1: I will sit here, I will stand on my soapbox 561 00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 1: and say that these kids need to be fed better 562 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:03,319 Speaker 1: than whatever they're feeding them at Washington State for under 563 00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 1: four hundred thousand dollars for an entire year. You're not 564 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 1: giving them high quality food. You're giving them trash, dude, 565 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:15,560 Speaker 1: So like like, yes, you can get them fed, but 566 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:20,000 Speaker 1: there's a difference in getting them fed and fueling these kids. 567 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:22,600 Speaker 1: You want them to go out and make millions of 568 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:29,200 Speaker 1: dollars for for you, for your coaches, for the universities. Yeah, 569 00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:32,560 Speaker 1: I have no problem with them eating freaking Ostrich burgers 570 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:37,760 Speaker 1: and and filet mignon. Sometimes they're they're not being paid. 571 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:40,719 Speaker 1: At least let them eat like kings since they're gonna 572 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:47,680 Speaker 1: line your pockets like kings. Man, I don't know between 573 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:57,280 Speaker 1: four between four who gives a damn rout bucks a person. 574 00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:03,920 Speaker 1: So what you're running at eight million dollar deficit and 575 00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:07,880 Speaker 1: five point four of it is food. I've learned, I've 576 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:11,440 Speaker 1: I've learned an important lesson and and and life route. 577 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 1: Don't count other people's money. And and when there's no 578 00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:19,000 Speaker 1: money to count because they ran an eighteen million dollar deficit, 579 00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:29,080 Speaker 1: I can't count backwards. These kids are fueling the well, 580 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:37,000 Speaker 1: they are fueling the economy. And they be a three 581 00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:40,680 Speaker 1: star kid and feed him three fifty meals a day 582 00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:45,239 Speaker 1: and turn him into a five star kid. What kind 583 00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:49,040 Speaker 1: of junk science is this? What are you talking about? 584 00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:52,480 Speaker 1: If if, if you put have you have you ever 585 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:57,399 Speaker 1: seen the episode that the documentary supersize me, you will 586 00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:00,399 Speaker 1: want to feed the kids exactly. You want to feat 587 00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:03,800 Speaker 1: the kids damn McDonald's food every every day and expect 588 00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:05,919 Speaker 1: them to go out and play. Well, No, there has 589 00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:09,520 Speaker 1: to be an in between, man, it's the the options. 590 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,879 Speaker 1: You're you're you're painting it as if the options are 591 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:18,560 Speaker 1: Taco bell or Ruth's Chris. There is an entire industry 592 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:21,800 Speaker 1: in between those two things. I think that they should 593 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:25,279 Speaker 1: be eating in between, but occasionally that they should get 594 00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:30,480 Speaker 1: some Rus' Chris. So so the the number I do 595 00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 1: think that five point four is it is high because 596 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:36,319 Speaker 1: I said that the that the forty dollars for the 597 00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:40,520 Speaker 1: for the barbecue too much all that. So my the 598 00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 1: number I'm looking at it is about like to seven 599 00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:47,360 Speaker 1: and I and I'm not complaining. I would not complain 600 00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:50,080 Speaker 1: if this number, and I would not listen to anybody 601 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 1: complaining at all if this number was in between two 602 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:56,759 Speaker 1: seven and three millions, and and I would demand that 603 00:38:56,840 --> 00:39:00,760 Speaker 1: there be a floor for the rest of the teams. 604 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:02,719 Speaker 1: Everybody else has got to get up to at least 605 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:07,520 Speaker 1: a million. You gotta feature feed your kids. Okay, So 606 00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 1: let's say let's say they have eighty five scholarship players, 607 00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:16,200 Speaker 1: right mm hm, but they feed the walk ons too, now, okay, 608 00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 1: but leave them all right, Well, let's just keep let's 609 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:19,799 Speaker 1: keep it to the A five because they're the ones 610 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:24,760 Speaker 1: that play. U c l A has eighty five scholarship players. 611 00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:26,759 Speaker 1: So what do you what do you think? Just just 612 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:28,960 Speaker 1: take a take a quick guess. What do you think 613 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:33,759 Speaker 1: the annual food cost is per scholarship player at U 614 00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:36,720 Speaker 1: c l A. But it's more than them. They they're 615 00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:40,600 Speaker 1: a feeding staff. They're feeding so like it's like, well, 616 00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:44,719 Speaker 1: let's say that they're feeding a hundred people a day. Okay, 617 00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:49,759 Speaker 1: I'll I'll just to be kind. We'll make it, will 618 00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:52,759 Speaker 1: make it with with the staff, We'll make it like 619 00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:57,120 Speaker 1: one ten Okay. So what do you think that is? 620 00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 1: M I mean per day? No, no, not not not 621 00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 1: per day, not per day annually. What do you think 622 00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:11,680 Speaker 1: on food? I can do a little bit of math. 623 00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:19,080 Speaker 1: That's like about four hundred and ninety thousand, right, No, No, 624 00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:30,840 Speaker 1: because thousand dollars per year per person on food. Forty 625 00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:34,960 Speaker 1: nine dollars per year per person on food. That's not 626 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:40,239 Speaker 1: even that much. I spent forty nine thousand dollars in 627 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:47,520 Speaker 1: food on myself, probably in a year. I don't know, man, 628 00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:53,080 Speaker 1: I'm dead serious, dude, I am dead serious. But actually 629 00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:56,879 Speaker 1: actually no, not not not on all by myself. But 630 00:40:57,320 --> 00:41:00,600 Speaker 1: that's four thousand dollars a month on food. But on 631 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:02,800 Speaker 1: on a serious note, I was joking. I don't spend 632 00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:06,600 Speaker 1: forty nine thousand dollars alone on me. But my family 633 00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:10,560 Speaker 1: spends more than forty nine dollars a year on food. 634 00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:14,040 Speaker 1: We go we we got a family of six. We 635 00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:16,279 Speaker 1: go about four hundred and fifty bucks a week, I 636 00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 1: would assume on food three d at a grocery store, 637 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:22,680 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty just miscellaneous like coffee and eating at 638 00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 1: once or twice the median household income of l A 639 00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:30,840 Speaker 1: though the median household income is sixty two thousand dollars. 640 00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:35,319 Speaker 1: That's a median household income of l A. And you're 641 00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:40,160 Speaker 1: spending fifty thousand a year on just food per player 642 00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:42,920 Speaker 1: I just when you're running a deficit like that, and 643 00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 1: you're four times higher than the next closest school. Okay, 644 00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:50,840 Speaker 1: so how much do you think that they should spend 645 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:55,400 Speaker 1: on food? How much do you think that they should 646 00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:58,400 Speaker 1: spend on on food? Like just looking at the raw numbers, 647 00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:02,720 Speaker 1: how much would be an acceptable number in your mind? 648 00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:05,799 Speaker 1: And what do you think about Washington State at four 649 00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:09,480 Speaker 1: hundred thousand less than four hundred thousand, Well, it depends. 650 00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:13,480 Speaker 1: So let's say let's say you got fifty bucks a day, right, 651 00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:18,160 Speaker 1: fifty bucks a day on food almost as a per diem, 652 00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:20,680 Speaker 1: just to set your budget, and you have, but that's 653 00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:23,680 Speaker 1: not even gonna feed them rob fifty bucks a day. 654 00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:28,040 Speaker 1: They gotta have breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks. What are 655 00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:29,919 Speaker 1: you talking about. That's not gonna feed them fifty bucks 656 00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:32,919 Speaker 1: a day, you could absolutely even even if you even 657 00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:34,920 Speaker 1: if they went to the same peanut butter and jelly 658 00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:36,920 Speaker 1: sandwich person, you can get ten of those peanut butter 659 00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:39,879 Speaker 1: and jelly sandwiches for fifty bucks in a day of course, 660 00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:45,880 Speaker 1: nutritious balanced meal. Dude. They probably like to to feed 661 00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:51,600 Speaker 1: a football player breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks, because remember, 662 00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:54,360 Speaker 1: he needs a lot of fuel to be able to perform. 663 00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:58,200 Speaker 1: To make you millions of dollars, you're probably gonna spend 664 00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:02,319 Speaker 1: like if obviously, Lee, you're buying in bulk all of 665 00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:05,400 Speaker 1: this stuff. So like if he gets a piece of chicken, 666 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:10,080 Speaker 1: a piece of steak, and a piece of seafood every 667 00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:15,920 Speaker 1: day then and then snacks snacks or nuts and you know, 668 00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:19,160 Speaker 1: fruit and all that stuff. Dude, Like you could easily 669 00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 1: spend seventy hundred bucks a day on them eating and 670 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:30,960 Speaker 1: that wouldn't be uh like outrageous, Like you are feeding 671 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 1: machines who are making millions for you, Like why are 672 00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:38,040 Speaker 1: why are we trying to skimp on this? I mean 673 00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:42,240 Speaker 1: it's just like anything else. We find a way to 674 00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:45,359 Speaker 1: get this unpaid labor and say, oh wow, you guys 675 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:47,759 Speaker 1: are feeding these kids way too good. You need to 676 00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:50,000 Speaker 1: cut the costs. You need to cut corners. You need 677 00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:52,359 Speaker 1: to be closer to wazoo and four hundred thousand. They're 678 00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 1: doing it right. Hell no, man, all right, So here's 679 00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:59,240 Speaker 1: what I'll tell you. If you spent fifty bucks a day, 680 00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:01,640 Speaker 1: and you assume you have the kids for or you 681 00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:05,400 Speaker 1: have the players for two thirds of the year, so 682 00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:08,320 Speaker 1: you're responsible for two thirds of the days in which 683 00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:13,560 Speaker 1: they eat food. Okay, so I would say probably more 684 00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:16,560 Speaker 1: than that. Probably, Let's just let's just let's assume it's 685 00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:20,000 Speaker 1: two thirds. Let's assume it's two thirds, because I'm gonna 686 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:23,040 Speaker 1: show you something. If you have them for two thirds 687 00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:26,080 Speaker 1: of the year, and you spend fifty bucks a day 688 00:44:26,239 --> 00:44:31,120 Speaker 1: on eighty five scholarship football players, you are going to 689 00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 1: have the third most highest total on this list, at 690 00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:37,719 Speaker 1: over a million dollars per year. And you're telling me 691 00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:39,640 Speaker 1: you can't get it done on fifty bucks a day. 692 00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:42,640 Speaker 1: Washington State is getting it done. And it might not 693 00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:45,960 Speaker 1: be up to your standards, but Washington State is getting 694 00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:52,160 Speaker 1: it done on a third of that fifty bucks a 695 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:55,439 Speaker 1: day should be fine. You're shopping at Pastco bro and 696 00:44:55,480 --> 00:45:00,640 Speaker 1: they're and they're feeding the kids freaking pasta. They're feeding 697 00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:04,440 Speaker 1: them spaghetti with with with marinera for a third or 698 00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:10,600 Speaker 1: those meals and and some and some uh antibiotic field 699 00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:15,759 Speaker 1: chicken breasts. So so yeah, man, just get some taco bell, 700 00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:20,480 Speaker 1: sprinkle some vitamins in it, roll that taco back. It's 701 00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:24,240 Speaker 1: just a chemical compound. It doesn't matter. It does not matter. 702 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:27,840 Speaker 1: It does not matter if somebody no, it does not 703 00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:31,480 Speaker 1: It does not matter if somebody gave your Kobe beef 704 00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:36,040 Speaker 1: steer a butt massage every single night before they carved 705 00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:40,279 Speaker 1: that COWA steak is steak. It doesn't matter. How have 706 00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 1: you ever had Have you ever had like a five 707 00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:48,040 Speaker 1: Kobe beef or a five waggle beef? Taste isn't nutrition though, 708 00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:51,680 Speaker 1: I'm just hey, bro, just give me what I need 709 00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:54,520 Speaker 1: in a little pill, in a little little green pill. 710 00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:57,319 Speaker 1: Give me, give me, give me the stuff. Uh you 711 00:45:57,400 --> 00:45:59,560 Speaker 1: just throw the little capsule in the microwave and it 712 00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:01,680 Speaker 1: turns in or whatever you need and let me get 713 00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:06,240 Speaker 1: Let me get on my way, bro, I'm not killing 714 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:09,759 Speaker 1: my My old wife gets upset because I do the 715 00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:12,560 Speaker 1: majority of our grocery shopping and how much I spend 716 00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:15,160 Speaker 1: on food, and I'm like Babe, you're the person who 717 00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:17,680 Speaker 1: wants us to eat well. Right, this is how much 718 00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:20,600 Speaker 1: eating will costs. So I get what you see l 719 00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:23,160 Speaker 1: A's doing. I mean, that's probably why we spend more 720 00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:25,840 Speaker 1: on food and probably our mortgage. But that's fine. I 721 00:46:25,920 --> 00:46:29,840 Speaker 1: just think I personally, I fully believe that that you 722 00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:33,400 Speaker 1: should be taking uh these kids bodies and and and 723 00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:37,520 Speaker 1: nutrition into account. I think the level with which Chip 724 00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:42,960 Speaker 1: Kelly has taken it UH should probably and include an 725 00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:46,839 Speaker 1: out of conference victory at some point. If you're if 726 00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:52,400 Speaker 1: you're spending two hundred dollars a day per player on food, 727 00:46:52,680 --> 00:47:02,520 Speaker 1: they should be able to beat Cincinnati. Wow Ostrich Burgers 728 00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:07,960 Speaker 1: George Ostrich. Okay, that's a subject change, because you just 729 00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:10,040 Speaker 1: dropped the mic on that one. I'm not even gonna 730 00:47:10,680 --> 00:47:14,759 Speaker 1: even responded that. Um, but you know who did drop 731 00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:19,279 Speaker 1: the mic on another thing? Um, your boy Jimmy new 732 00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:24,880 Speaker 1: coaching Lake up by the Lake in Seattle. He he 733 00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:28,040 Speaker 1: is trolling the SEC. I feel like I feel like 734 00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:30,160 Speaker 1: you get to drop your you get to drop the 735 00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:33,239 Speaker 1: rivalry for a minute and and and applaud him for this. 736 00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:37,560 Speaker 1: Yes I do, I do because I love it. I 737 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:44,279 Speaker 1: love it. Um Oh he said the preseason game four 738 00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:48,480 Speaker 1: Purple fifty nine, Gold fifty two, and he said, correction, 739 00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:51,479 Speaker 1: I was looking at an SEC score from last week. 740 00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:56,839 Speaker 1: We still play defense out West Purple for Gold twenty 741 00:47:57,640 --> 00:48:02,919 Speaker 1: hashtag bow down to Washington. UM. Aside from the bout 742 00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:05,560 Speaker 1: down to Washington party, it was a great tweet. I 743 00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:08,320 Speaker 1: did not mind it at all. I love the trolling 744 00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:12,239 Speaker 1: because the SEC all all you hear about they don't 745 00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:15,880 Speaker 1: play defense on the West Coast. They don't. And Washington 746 00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:19,120 Speaker 1: has played defense for quite some time, like they haven't 747 00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:21,840 Speaker 1: allowed thirty five points or more, and it's been a 748 00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:24,800 Speaker 1: minute and or only a couple of times in the 749 00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:27,759 Speaker 1: last like four or five years. And the crazy part 750 00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:31,399 Speaker 1: is is that the SEC scores they look like big 751 00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:35,759 Speaker 1: twelve scores and nobody is. Nobody's really talking about it 752 00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:38,680 Speaker 1: like that right right now. But let a high score, 753 00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:41,799 Speaker 1: impact twelve game happen and everybody's acting like there's no 754 00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:44,839 Speaker 1: defense on the West Coast. So I applaud Jimmy for 755 00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:48,960 Speaker 1: this high level troll. UM on it. You're you're gonna 756 00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:53,000 Speaker 1: like it even more because apparently this is uh double troll. 757 00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:57,239 Speaker 1: It's not just targeting the SEC, but his own fan 758 00:48:57,320 --> 00:48:59,160 Speaker 1: base because I guess, I don't know if this was 759 00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:01,839 Speaker 1: this year. Last they had a scrimmage that ended nine 760 00:49:01,920 --> 00:49:05,720 Speaker 1: to six, which caused the entire fan base to melt 761 00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 1: down over the idea that they couldn't play offense. So 762 00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:13,400 Speaker 1: they were saying what offense was right? So they're saying, like, 763 00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:16,000 Speaker 1: what does that say about you know about the offense? 764 00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:20,400 Speaker 1: So when he fired off the fifty nine to fifty two, 765 00:49:20,880 --> 00:49:22,960 Speaker 1: it was a shot at all of the fans who 766 00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:27,920 Speaker 1: melted down over the nine to six game. Oh, so 767 00:49:28,040 --> 00:49:30,960 Speaker 1: that made it even better. So he's roasting He's roasting 768 00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:35,320 Speaker 1: Washington fans and the SEC at the exact same time 769 00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:41,680 Speaker 1: as the head coach of Washington. Yeah, because there's even comments, 770 00:49:41,719 --> 00:49:43,920 Speaker 1: there's even replies on it. So was the nine to 771 00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:52,520 Speaker 1: six a joke too? Yeah? Yep, I am all in favor. 772 00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:55,200 Speaker 1: I like the trolling. I like this sort of stuff. 773 00:49:55,760 --> 00:49:58,320 Speaker 1: I hate when coaches trying to play it too close 774 00:49:58,360 --> 00:50:03,640 Speaker 1: to the vest um. His defense should be good again 775 00:50:03,680 --> 00:50:08,120 Speaker 1: this year. There they were young last year. Yeah, so 776 00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:10,839 Speaker 1: I'm all in favor of it, especially when you know 777 00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:13,680 Speaker 1: you got something going to you can actually shoot off 778 00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:16,759 Speaker 1: these kind of kind of tweets. But if they mess 779 00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:19,040 Speaker 1: around and they give up like forty points in the 780 00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:23,480 Speaker 1: game or get housed and this tweet will come back 781 00:50:23,520 --> 00:50:29,520 Speaker 1: to haunt him. Yeah, I don't know. I I'm enjoying it. 782 00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:31,040 Speaker 1: I like for the coaches to have a little bit 783 00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:33,920 Speaker 1: of personality. And everyone always said they felt like it 784 00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:36,719 Speaker 1: was just relegated to uh to leach. But it's it's 785 00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:41,120 Speaker 1: cool to see other coaches get involved. Dude. I messed up, Ralph. 786 00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:45,840 Speaker 1: I messed up bro I had a perfect opportunity to 787 00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:49,080 Speaker 1: segue into a different topic, and I went to the 788 00:50:49,080 --> 00:50:52,319 Speaker 1: wrong one. I went to Jimmy Lake and we just 789 00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:55,200 Speaker 1: talked about all the food costs. So where should I 790 00:50:55,239 --> 00:51:05,719 Speaker 1: have gone next? Um?

Yes, we're still I was about to 793 00:51:13,520 --> 00:51:18,080 Speaker 1: say a guess word, so so I'll let you tell 794 00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:22,760 Speaker 1: everybody about it. Um. Yeah.

I will say that 802 00:51:46,520 --> 00:51:49,360 Speaker 1: it made Twitter a very entertaining place for about twenty 803 00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:53,800 Speaker 1: four hours of people just absolutely roasting the Pack twelve 804 00:51:54,200 --> 00:51:58,319 Speaker 1: for coming out with an important announcement and having it 805 00:51:58,400 --> 00:52:03,160 Speaker 1: be that they partnered with a seafood company.

They 817 00:52:38,600 --> 00:52:41,080 Speaker 1: can probably get some keen crab legs for like the 818 00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:43,960 Speaker 1: same price now, so instead of paying you know, like 819 00:52:45,040 --> 00:52:47,480 Speaker 1: eight bucks or like twenty five bucks a pound for 820 00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:50,200 Speaker 1: some king crab legs. Maybe they can get them, you 821 00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:53,240 Speaker 1: know it, five six bucks a pounded like a corporate 822 00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:56,680 Speaker 1: discount rate or something, and feed feed the kids, take 823 00:52:56,719 --> 00:52:59,960 Speaker 1: the you know, they can be eating lobster every night 824 00:53:00,120 --> 00:53:02,759 Speaker 1: for you know, a third at a price. Yeah, man, 825 00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:05,200 Speaker 1: I mean maybe maybe that was maybe that was the thing. 826 00:53:05,239 --> 00:53:10,080 Speaker 1: Maybe the Pacific Seafoods caught wind of the actual uptick 827 00:53:10,239 --> 00:53:12,480 Speaker 1: in food spending from the Pack twelve and tried to 828 00:53:12,520 --> 00:53:14,080 Speaker 1: get out in front of it and filter some of 829 00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:16,239 Speaker 1: that cash their way. I couldn't be mad at him 830 00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:18,799 Speaker 1: for that. And then, uh, you know, Larry Scott uh 831 00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:21,480 Speaker 1: found a way to at least, you know, he likes 832 00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:28,200 Speaker 1: to periodically announced that they made some sort of successful negotiation. Um. 833 00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:32,600 Speaker 1: John John Canzatto went right for Larry Scott's throat like 834 00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:35,359 Speaker 1: he always does. He said, odds, this Pacific Seafood deal 835 00:53:35,400 --> 00:53:42,920 Speaker 1: outlasts the current conference commissioner. Um, let's see someone Dave 836 00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:47,960 Speaker 1: Softie Mahler, who is a radio show host out of Seattle, 837 00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:53,840 Speaker 1: said surf and turf in the press box. Um. Somebody 838 00:53:53,880 --> 00:53:56,040 Speaker 1: asked if they if they thought that this was just 839 00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:59,080 Speaker 1: a product sponsorship or if there was actual cash involved. 840 00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:00,920 Speaker 1: I mean there would have to be, right, Like, there 841 00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:03,200 Speaker 1: have to be there's a kickback from Pacific Seafood to 842 00:54:03,320 --> 00:54:07,040 Speaker 1: the Pack twelve, and then the Pack twelve is gonna 843 00:54:07,080 --> 00:54:11,040 Speaker 1: steer business their way and then pocket the money from 844 00:54:11,080 --> 00:54:14,759 Speaker 1: that business. Is this a way? Hold on? Is this 845 00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:18,520 Speaker 1: a way for the Pack twelve to get the cash 846 00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:22,400 Speaker 1: that the schools are spending on food in their pocket? 847 00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:37,000 Speaker 1: I mean, technically there's okay, I think you just brought 848 00:54:37,040 --> 00:54:39,399 Speaker 1: up a very good point, though I don't know how 849 00:54:39,440 --> 00:54:44,680 Speaker 1: business works, so I'm involved. What if this is like 850 00:54:44,719 --> 00:54:50,640 Speaker 1: a product sponsorship where the where the conference that the 851 00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:54,200 Speaker 1: that like at the Pack twelve headquarters where all the 852 00:54:55,239 --> 00:54:58,839 Speaker 1: you know, the two common people work that that they 853 00:54:58,920 --> 00:55:02,040 Speaker 1: get seafood and that they get to sponsor, and that 854 00:55:02,160 --> 00:55:04,719 Speaker 1: they may be that they'll sponsor like a bowl game 855 00:55:04,840 --> 00:55:08,240 Speaker 1: or whatever. But it may not actually be cash pouring 856 00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:12,400 Speaker 1: into the conference or that they that the schools may 857 00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:15,440 Speaker 1: get a certain amount of food or if it is cash. 858 00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:19,040 Speaker 1: But if it is cash pouring into the conference, then 859 00:55:19,120 --> 00:55:23,160 Speaker 1: I'm assuming that Pacific Seafood can say, hey, they're gonna 860 00:55:23,200 --> 00:55:26,560 Speaker 1: steer x amount of business our way, which is going 861 00:55:26,640 --> 00:55:29,280 Speaker 1: to mean that we have x amount of cash on hand, 862 00:55:29,600 --> 00:55:32,640 Speaker 1: which means we can afford to sponsor the Pack twelve, 863 00:55:33,760 --> 00:55:39,239 Speaker 1: therefore making Chip Kelly's Ostrichburger orders actually put money in 864 00:55:39,320 --> 00:55:43,120 Speaker 1: Larry Scott's pocket. I don't mean to get all Alex 865 00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:46,000 Speaker 1: Jones here, but I'm just trying to connect the dots. Yeah, 866 00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:47,840 Speaker 1: well here's a here's another good one. Oh cool, we 867 00:55:47,920 --> 00:55:50,000 Speaker 1: made a deal with an ep and fish stick company 868 00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:55,080 Speaker 1: before YouTube TV. Um. I cannot stop laughing at this. 869 00:55:55,160 --> 00:56:02,120 Speaker 1: Larry Scott saved the day with check notes Pacific seafood. Um. 870 00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:04,680 Speaker 1: Someone asked if Larry Scott was not getting enough fresh 871 00:56:04,680 --> 00:56:10,240 Speaker 1: seafood in his diet. Um. Yeah, there's quite there's quite 872 00:56:10,239 --> 00:56:15,279 Speaker 1: a bit of very very funny uh gifts and comments, uh, 873 00:56:15,320 --> 00:56:18,839 Speaker 1: but a lot of sarcastic. The Pack twelve is back 874 00:56:19,560 --> 00:56:22,439 Speaker 1: tweets and a lot of George Costanza stuffing his face 875 00:56:22,480 --> 00:56:28,960 Speaker 1: with shrimp. This is atrocious, dude. I mean, like I 876 00:56:29,120 --> 00:56:32,719 Speaker 1: get it, Like I don't mind see where The only 877 00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:35,640 Speaker 1: reason why this feels so bad to the conference is 878 00:56:35,719 --> 00:56:42,040 Speaker 1: because it's it's like you getting It's like you need 879 00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:46,880 Speaker 1: a new a new, a new Fawcett for your sink, 880 00:56:47,080 --> 00:56:51,239 Speaker 1: right or new tires for your car. Like it's like, 881 00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:55,760 Speaker 1: you need new tires for your car because they are bald, 882 00:56:56,000 --> 00:57:02,560 Speaker 1: but instead you go get the seats really refurbished. You're like, no, 883 00:57:02,760 --> 00:57:06,040 Speaker 1: but we need new tires. They're bald. We're like literally 884 00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:10,040 Speaker 1: hydro planing when it's not raining outside, we need new tires. 885 00:57:10,800 --> 00:57:13,759 Speaker 1: And instead you get new seat covers or you get 886 00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:17,680 Speaker 1: a new radio, like like like, yes, the radio is cool. 887 00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:19,920 Speaker 1: There's nothing wrong with getting the new radio or new 888 00:57:19,920 --> 00:57:24,400 Speaker 1: seat covers. You need it tires which are more important, 889 00:57:24,400 --> 00:57:29,280 Speaker 1: which is the availability. I would say the best thing 890 00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:32,480 Speaker 1: that's come out of the pandemic for the PAC twelve 891 00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:36,000 Speaker 1: is that every game is gonna be nationally televised. And 892 00:57:36,040 --> 00:57:39,240 Speaker 1: I know that technically the PAC twelve network was nationally 893 00:57:39,320 --> 00:57:42,520 Speaker 1: televised as well, but it's not when it's less than 894 00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:45,640 Speaker 1: when it's like seventeen million homes, that's not that's like, 895 00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:49,560 Speaker 1: that's like regional network. I think the weirdest thing about 896 00:57:49,600 --> 00:57:52,280 Speaker 1: it is then the next day they announced a sponsorship 897 00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:55,320 Speaker 1: with Pacific Premier Bank, and then it just had people 898 00:57:55,360 --> 00:57:58,080 Speaker 1: wondering if they're out there looking for companies with Pacific 899 00:57:58,120 --> 00:58:00,120 Speaker 1: in the name, because they ran out of other ideas. 900 00:58:03,240 --> 00:58:07,680 Speaker 1: So they're just looking looking for people that start with pacific. Yeah, so, 901 00:58:07,760 --> 00:58:10,200 Speaker 1: like the pax Son is going to be the official 902 00:58:10,200 --> 00:58:14,800 Speaker 1: clothing UH sponsor, that Chrysler Pacifica will be the official 903 00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:19,280 Speaker 1: car of the PAC twelve. That can't be the official 904 00:58:19,320 --> 00:58:24,320 Speaker 1: car that I would quit the conference if that becomes 905 00:58:24,320 --> 00:58:26,880 Speaker 1: the official car. That's where you draw the line. Is 906 00:58:26,920 --> 00:58:30,720 Speaker 1: the Chrysler Pacifica. Yeah, that's why I draw that because 907 00:58:31,400 --> 00:58:32,960 Speaker 1: I don't I don't know if I told you, but 908 00:58:33,880 --> 00:58:38,720 Speaker 1: my wife got us to get a Chryser Pacifica. And 909 00:58:38,800 --> 00:58:43,120 Speaker 1: it was like, George, get rid of your of your navigator, 910 00:58:43,880 --> 00:58:46,800 Speaker 1: get the Chryser Pacifica, and then we'll get a car 911 00:58:47,080 --> 00:58:51,360 Speaker 1: too for every um for you to drive drive around 912 00:58:51,400 --> 00:58:53,040 Speaker 1: in every day the way you don't have to drive 913 00:58:53,120 --> 00:58:57,200 Speaker 1: the minivan blah blah blah. And she drives the Tesla 914 00:58:57,280 --> 00:59:01,440 Speaker 1: the majority of time, right, So, and then but and 915 00:59:01,720 --> 00:59:06,000 Speaker 1: I am driving this stupid minivan all the time, and 916 00:59:06,040 --> 00:59:09,560 Speaker 1: I'm like, so you have one right now? Correct? So 917 00:59:09,600 --> 00:59:13,280 Speaker 1: it quickly is the car of the FACT twelve. So 918 00:59:13,840 --> 00:59:17,040 Speaker 1: and I'm sitting there like, all right, okay, I've had 919 00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:20,600 Speaker 1: plenty of opportunity to go get another car. But now 920 00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:24,320 Speaker 1: I'm so used to us saving so much money, then 921 00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:26,240 Speaker 1: I'm like, do what do I really want to go 922 00:59:26,280 --> 00:59:29,160 Speaker 1: get another car? And but there are some days that 923 00:59:29,280 --> 00:59:32,800 Speaker 1: I just when I'm not driving the test, that I 924 00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:37,439 Speaker 1: absolutely hate my life driving a minivan. I just thought, 925 00:59:37,480 --> 00:59:40,280 Speaker 1: and I'm like, I just got a text message from 926 00:59:40,320 --> 00:59:42,840 Speaker 1: my wife who is listening to just my end of 927 00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:45,760 Speaker 1: the podcast from the other room, and wrote. All she 928 00:59:45,800 --> 00:59:51,520 Speaker 1: wrote was that's a great car. See that. I hope 929 00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:54,400 Speaker 1: you tell her what I said.

Well, you're trying to that's Thet's 931 00:59:59,800 --> 01:00:01,360 Speaker 1: just I could justify it by saying, like I'm trying 932 01:00:01,360 --> 01:00:04,440 Speaker 1: to bring female eyeballs onto some of these pactics teams 933 01:00:04,480 --> 01:00:09,240 Speaker 1: due I am. I am against toxic masculinity and these 934 01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:12,640 Speaker 1: and these ideas that your manhood is attached to certain things. 935 01:00:13,000 --> 01:00:16,840 Speaker 1: But I don't feel right driving up a mini a 936 01:00:16,880 --> 01:00:20,520 Speaker 1: mini man, that's not my I know that some guys can, 937 01:00:20,920 --> 01:00:25,720 Speaker 1: it's just not me, Like I belong in a muscle car. Um. 938 01:00:25,760 --> 01:00:27,320 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, but it doesn't mean it doesn't mean you 939 01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:29,080 Speaker 1: have I mean you already have one, but it doesn't 940 01:00:29,080 --> 01:00:31,240 Speaker 1: mean you have to like be proud, are you gonna 941 01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:34,040 Speaker 1: Are you gonna buy more Pacific seafood because of this 942 01:00:34,120 --> 01:00:39,240 Speaker 1: sponsorship deal? Uh? No, I know, but I but I 943 01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:44,000 Speaker 1: will see if I can get a discount though, because 944 01:00:44,040 --> 01:00:47,520 Speaker 1: I am about the discount. But uh but yeah, so 945 01:00:47,680 --> 01:00:51,280 Speaker 1: I am in line for the the Tesla truck and 946 01:00:51,400 --> 01:00:56,880 Speaker 1: the Hummer truck. Just just so everybody knows. UM. The 947 01:00:56,920 --> 01:01:00,960 Speaker 1: next thing up the University of Arizona. They're they're in 948 01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:04,520 Speaker 1: trouble allegedly or maybe not. UM they got a notice 949 01:01:04,520 --> 01:01:08,720 Speaker 1: of allegations from the back twelve, which we knew was 950 01:01:08,800 --> 01:01:13,880 Speaker 1: eventually coming. This is years and years old from the 951 01:01:14,000 --> 01:01:18,200 Speaker 1: um from the wire tap conversation is going back to 952 01:01:18,280 --> 01:01:25,360 Speaker 1: Christian Dawkins. If you haven't seen the documentary on on HBO, 953 01:01:25,520 --> 01:01:27,680 Speaker 1: then you need to go see that. It was directed 954 01:01:27,680 --> 01:01:31,400 Speaker 1: by this guy named Pat condellas Um, it's about the quota. 955 01:01:31,520 --> 01:01:35,640 Speaker 1: It's about the victimless crime of of bribes going two 956 01:01:35,840 --> 01:01:41,080 Speaker 1: kids to go to certain schools. And nobody's actually harmed 957 01:01:41,120 --> 01:01:43,440 Speaker 1: in this but some kind of way because of this 958 01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:47,200 Speaker 1: guy named Marty Blazer who used to be a financial 959 01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:50,840 Speaker 1: advisor for a bunch of NFL and NBA guys, but 960 01:01:50,920 --> 01:01:54,080 Speaker 1: turns out he's a crook. He was getting investigated, and 961 01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:57,160 Speaker 1: then he pointed the eyeballs on other people to try 962 01:01:57,200 --> 01:02:01,160 Speaker 1: to get out of jail. And it ended up on 963 01:02:01,480 --> 01:02:10,280 Speaker 1: squarely on um the the coach Will or yeah yeah 964 01:02:10,320 --> 01:02:14,800 Speaker 1: on book book Richardson and um Sean Miller at Arizona 965 01:02:15,320 --> 01:02:19,280 Speaker 1: and Will whatever his name is over at LSU, their 966 01:02:19,360 --> 01:02:23,920 Speaker 1: head coach over over there, and now they've gotten a 967 01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:28,200 Speaker 1: notice of allegations and but they're not releasing it yet. 968 01:02:29,560 --> 01:02:36,160 Speaker 1: And I absolutely hate this. And for l s U 969 01:02:36,920 --> 01:02:40,880 Speaker 1: the same way where they just self imposed penalties on 970 01:02:40,920 --> 01:02:43,360 Speaker 1: their football program, which was separate from the stuff that 971 01:02:43,400 --> 01:02:46,800 Speaker 1: happened in basket basketball. I'm just look looking at this 972 01:02:46,880 --> 01:02:49,800 Speaker 1: and I'm like, we're in the process. We just watched 973 01:02:49,800 --> 01:02:54,160 Speaker 1: the video of USC talking about name, image and likeness legislation. 974 01:02:54,960 --> 01:02:57,240 Speaker 1: But now the n C Double A is getting ready 975 01:02:57,280 --> 01:03:01,000 Speaker 1: to to lay the hammer on air his owner or 976 01:03:01,120 --> 01:03:04,480 Speaker 1: or l s U and other schools. It just feels 977 01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:12,959 Speaker 1: stupid to me. Yeah, I mean, um, I think that 978 01:03:13,280 --> 01:03:15,440 Speaker 1: the n C Double A probably drugged their feet on this, 979 01:03:15,600 --> 01:03:20,120 Speaker 1: because the the more precise they were with this investigation, 980 01:03:20,200 --> 01:03:22,640 Speaker 1: the more energy that they put into it, the more 981 01:03:22,720 --> 01:03:26,400 Speaker 1: everybody would have gotten in trouble. Um. I think that 982 01:03:26,400 --> 01:03:29,160 Speaker 1: they could probably hit Sean Miller with lack of institutional control, 983 01:03:29,560 --> 01:03:32,400 Speaker 1: because that's like charging somebody with disorderly conduct. You can 984 01:03:32,480 --> 01:03:37,600 Speaker 1: always find a way to justify it. Um. I'm over it, though, 985 01:03:38,120 --> 01:03:40,720 Speaker 1: I'm really over it. I'm past it. I know there's 986 01:03:40,720 --> 01:03:42,200 Speaker 1: a lot of A s U fans that listen to 987 01:03:42,200 --> 01:03:45,280 Speaker 1: this that want to hear like tear it all down, 988 01:03:45,360 --> 01:03:47,760 Speaker 1: but at the same time, they love that uv A 989 01:03:47,880 --> 01:03:49,920 Speaker 1: is always in trouble and they're like, keep Sean Miller 990 01:03:49,920 --> 01:03:52,320 Speaker 1: around for as long as possible. If this is going 991 01:03:52,360 --> 01:03:56,680 Speaker 1: to be the result, I don't know. I'm definitely over it. 992 01:03:56,760 --> 01:03:59,480 Speaker 1: I I get very curious about some of the different 993 01:03:59,600 --> 01:04:02,760 Speaker 1: medium members and personalities out there that seem to have 994 01:04:02,800 --> 01:04:06,560 Speaker 1: a vested interest in wanting to see Sean Miller pay 995 01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:09,760 Speaker 1: a heavy price for this. Dick vital Is is one 996 01:04:09,760 --> 01:04:16,080 Speaker 1: of them. Uh. And I've questioned the veracity and um 997 01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:20,080 Speaker 1: responsibility of some of the reporting that was done leading 998 01:04:20,160 --> 01:04:23,360 Speaker 1: up to this. But at the end of the day, 999 01:04:23,520 --> 01:04:26,600 Speaker 1: if Sean Miller really wants to continue to pretend like 1000 01:04:26,720 --> 01:04:28,440 Speaker 1: he had no idea what was going on in his 1001 01:04:28,480 --> 01:04:32,160 Speaker 1: own program, that maybe he shouldn't have a program that's 1002 01:04:32,720 --> 01:04:36,400 Speaker 1: it's it's pretty simple. So I just wish and maybe 1003 01:04:36,480 --> 01:04:39,080 Speaker 1: it's just the system designed to where he can't own 1004 01:04:39,120 --> 01:04:42,600 Speaker 1: it because then the punishment would be worse. But you know, 1005 01:04:43,040 --> 01:04:46,080 Speaker 1: he just needs to say, yeah, I ran a program 1006 01:04:46,120 --> 01:04:48,360 Speaker 1: where obviously some stuff that shouldn't have been going on 1007 01:04:48,840 --> 01:04:51,920 Speaker 1: definitely was going on, and I have to be more 1008 01:04:52,040 --> 01:04:55,000 Speaker 1: vigilant from this point forward. If Arizona will have me back, 1009 01:04:56,160 --> 01:04:58,720 Speaker 1: We'll take whatever punishment that that we get. We're not 1010 01:04:58,760 --> 01:05:01,680 Speaker 1: going to volunteer for anything, because that always seems to 1011 01:05:01,680 --> 01:05:05,400 Speaker 1: be a stupid move, but you know, it's about the 1012 01:05:05,440 --> 01:05:08,080 Speaker 1: future and then just find a way to move on. 1013 01:05:08,160 --> 01:05:10,960 Speaker 1: But instead he just keeps really tight lipped, and you 1014 01:05:11,040 --> 01:05:13,320 Speaker 1: have everybody calling for a pound of flesh. And I've 1015 01:05:13,360 --> 01:05:16,080 Speaker 1: just I lost interest in this around the time that 1016 01:05:16,160 --> 01:05:20,960 Speaker 1: we actually got to UM talked to you know, and 1017 01:05:21,480 --> 01:05:23,320 Speaker 1: pat con Dallas, and we we talked about all these 1018 01:05:23,360 --> 01:05:27,160 Speaker 1: allegations and I'm I'm just over it. It happened so 1019 01:05:27,200 --> 01:05:30,640 Speaker 1: long ago, you know, could it still be going on, absolutely, 1020 01:05:30,720 --> 01:05:35,320 Speaker 1: But I just I'm I got fatigued on this whole thing. 1021 01:05:36,120 --> 01:05:40,760 Speaker 1: The environment creates the opportunity for cheating, so they need 1022 01:05:40,800 --> 01:05:49,400 Speaker 1: to do something about the environment. The the lack of 1023 01:05:50,880 --> 01:05:59,040 Speaker 1: well the underground economy is created by like the like 1024 01:05:59,160 --> 01:06:03,120 Speaker 1: the secrecy and the and the lack of actually being 1025 01:06:03,160 --> 01:06:06,080 Speaker 1: able to do something that makes sense, Like there would 1026 01:06:06,120 --> 01:06:10,200 Speaker 1: be no underground economy if players were allowed to trade 1027 01:06:10,200 --> 01:06:13,320 Speaker 1: on their name, image and likeness, like everything would be 1028 01:06:13,360 --> 01:06:17,120 Speaker 1: above board. It's it's it's it's like where weed is 1029 01:06:17,200 --> 01:06:20,680 Speaker 1: legal in so many states. Now it's legal in so 1030 01:06:20,760 --> 01:06:24,560 Speaker 1: many states, And guess what that's done. That's cut down 1031 01:06:24,880 --> 01:06:28,720 Speaker 1: on simple arrest for for for marijuana, which allows people 1032 01:06:28,720 --> 01:06:32,320 Speaker 1: to be and be employed, to have jobs, not overcrowding jails. 1033 01:06:32,720 --> 01:06:36,720 Speaker 1: There is not a underground so and then drug dealers 1034 01:06:38,120 --> 01:06:41,960 Speaker 1: they are out of business because the the shops can 1035 01:06:42,080 --> 01:06:46,040 Speaker 1: provide it for less. And now there's less people getting 1036 01:06:46,120 --> 01:06:49,360 Speaker 1: killed overweed. They're still good and killed over other drugs, 1037 01:06:49,440 --> 01:06:52,600 Speaker 1: but less over that in terms of so then you 1038 01:06:52,640 --> 01:06:55,280 Speaker 1: don't then the car tails don't have to smoke a 1039 01:06:55,320 --> 01:06:58,280 Speaker 1: weed over You can grow it here, sell it here, 1040 01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:01,760 Speaker 1: and then the best part about it, you get the 1041 01:07:01,920 --> 01:07:07,320 Speaker 1: tax money. So then streets are paved, schools are funded, 1042 01:07:07,480 --> 01:07:10,000 Speaker 1: all of this stuff from the thing that people were 1043 01:07:10,040 --> 01:07:13,840 Speaker 1: already going to be doing already just it's it's the 1044 01:07:15,240 --> 01:07:19,120 Speaker 1: it's the secrecy and the and the point of being 1045 01:07:19,320 --> 01:07:22,960 Speaker 1: illegal of it and all that that just makes the 1046 01:07:23,000 --> 01:07:28,280 Speaker 1: need for an underground economy and ceed people being um 1047 01:07:28,400 --> 01:07:34,360 Speaker 1: a part of it. That's what I don't like. So uh, 1048 01:07:34,480 --> 01:07:37,360 Speaker 1: I get that they broke the rules, and I agree 1049 01:07:37,360 --> 01:07:40,440 Speaker 1: with you about Sean Miller pretending like he didn't know 1050 01:07:40,520 --> 01:07:43,920 Speaker 1: anything was going on. He knew. But at the same time, 1051 01:07:44,000 --> 01:07:47,280 Speaker 1: this is a victimless crime and I don't even I 1052 01:07:47,640 --> 01:07:50,320 Speaker 1: could care less if they get punished. I would prefer 1053 01:07:50,400 --> 01:07:53,280 Speaker 1: if they didn't. And these kids are allowed to make 1054 01:07:53,320 --> 01:07:56,280 Speaker 1: money because it's stupid and the n C double ages. 1055 01:07:56,920 --> 01:08:00,680 Speaker 1: They just exist to hear their own voice. Yeah, And 1056 01:08:00,840 --> 01:08:07,240 Speaker 1: it's genuinely amazing how our standards change. Is the rules change, right, 1057 01:08:07,920 --> 01:08:12,400 Speaker 1: you know? There, if somebody violates a rule that we 1058 01:08:12,600 --> 01:08:15,479 Speaker 1: understand to be a rule, we look at them as 1059 01:08:15,720 --> 01:08:18,679 Speaker 1: a moral and a cheater and all of those things. 1060 01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:22,479 Speaker 1: But if the rule changes and you sort of like 1061 01:08:22,600 --> 01:08:25,439 Speaker 1: retro fit and you you look back at something that 1062 01:08:25,439 --> 01:08:29,000 Speaker 1: somebody got in trouble for that is now legal. Um, 1063 01:08:29,120 --> 01:08:31,840 Speaker 1: you can't take back any of that, Like vitriol and 1064 01:08:31,880 --> 01:08:33,400 Speaker 1: the and the pound of flesh that you were after 1065 01:08:33,479 --> 01:08:37,840 Speaker 1: and everything like that. Um, but a rule is a rule, 1066 01:08:38,040 --> 01:08:41,920 Speaker 1: So you know, you don't have to applaud that somebody 1067 01:08:41,920 --> 01:08:43,639 Speaker 1: gets in trouble. But it would be nice if somebody, 1068 01:08:43,680 --> 01:08:45,800 Speaker 1: you know, if Sean Miller would just take responsibility for 1069 01:08:45,800 --> 01:08:49,799 Speaker 1: the fact that that he was involved in this, because 1070 01:08:50,160 --> 01:08:53,280 Speaker 1: to me, not knowing is always worse. If you don't 1071 01:08:53,280 --> 01:08:56,639 Speaker 1: know what's going on in your program, that's the worse 1072 01:08:57,360 --> 01:09:01,120 Speaker 1: it is. It's worse in my eyes if he wasn't involved. 1073 01:09:02,479 --> 01:09:07,800 Speaker 1: I told one agree with that. And with that though, 1074 01:09:08,080 --> 01:09:10,280 Speaker 1: like going back to the n C Double A for 1075 01:09:10,320 --> 01:09:13,440 Speaker 1: a second, that's why when l s U self imposed 1076 01:09:13,439 --> 01:09:18,520 Speaker 1: the penalties for the rules violations involving the football program, 1077 01:09:18,560 --> 01:09:22,720 Speaker 1: with Odell Beckham Jr. Handing out the money after the 1078 01:09:22,800 --> 01:09:29,479 Speaker 1: game and with um and with that that kid's dad 1079 01:09:29,479 --> 01:09:31,519 Speaker 1: who got a hundred and eighty tho dollarge that was 1080 01:09:31,560 --> 01:09:34,840 Speaker 1: stolen from the children's hospital, even though he didn't know 1081 01:09:34,840 --> 01:09:38,240 Speaker 1: it was I I just couldn't figure here. Here's the 1082 01:09:38,280 --> 01:09:41,200 Speaker 1: thing that I thought about that which kind of ties 1083 01:09:41,240 --> 01:09:46,640 Speaker 1: into Arizona. It's different because it's football as opposed to basketball. 1084 01:09:46,680 --> 01:09:49,479 Speaker 1: Because the n C Double A actually does control the 1085 01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:54,759 Speaker 1: championships in basketball. But if this happens to a football 1086 01:09:54,800 --> 01:09:59,040 Speaker 1: program like it did with USC years and years ago 1087 01:09:59,040 --> 01:10:02,120 Speaker 1: with Reggie Bush, I just don't understand why these programs 1088 01:10:02,120 --> 01:10:05,680 Speaker 1: at this point are are saying, I don't care what 1089 01:10:05,800 --> 01:10:08,519 Speaker 1: you have to say, n C Double A, go fly 1090 01:10:08,640 --> 01:10:13,280 Speaker 1: a kite. We don't care, we don't care about your allegations, 1091 01:10:13,320 --> 01:10:15,800 Speaker 1: we don't care about your investigation. Will do what we 1092 01:10:15,880 --> 01:10:18,320 Speaker 1: want to do. And the reason why I say that 1093 01:10:18,520 --> 01:10:22,800 Speaker 1: is because we've seen during the coronavirus Ralph. What did 1094 01:10:22,840 --> 01:10:25,000 Speaker 1: the n C Double A say should be done about 1095 01:10:25,040 --> 01:10:31,200 Speaker 1: football during the coronavirus? I think they helped out much 1096 01:10:31,240 --> 01:10:34,080 Speaker 1: at all. Well where they where? The n C Double 1097 01:10:34,120 --> 01:10:36,960 Speaker 1: A came out and said that they should not be playing, right, 1098 01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:41,479 Speaker 1: They said they shouldn't be playing this season, and then 1099 01:10:41,520 --> 01:10:43,839 Speaker 1: we found out the n C Double A doesn't control 1100 01:10:43,880 --> 01:10:47,639 Speaker 1: the championships and actually has no power to stop teams 1101 01:10:47,720 --> 01:10:50,639 Speaker 1: from playing. They didn't think that they should be playing. 1102 01:10:51,040 --> 01:10:53,679 Speaker 1: So if they don't have power to stop you from playing, 1103 01:10:54,320 --> 01:10:59,360 Speaker 1: why the hell do you care about their penalties? Like 1104 01:10:59,560 --> 01:11:03,080 Speaker 1: they they have no power. Even if you don't educate 1105 01:11:03,120 --> 01:11:06,120 Speaker 1: the kids, don't honor scholarships, give them sham classes whatever. 1106 01:11:06,160 --> 01:11:09,760 Speaker 1: They can't punish you, So why do you care? Like 1107 01:11:09,920 --> 01:11:16,240 Speaker 1: you you're living in a world of invisible handcuffs. I 1108 01:11:16,240 --> 01:11:20,400 Speaker 1: I just I just for the life of me, Like 1109 01:11:20,760 --> 01:11:25,280 Speaker 1: it's it's like if you didn't do anything wrong and 1110 01:11:25,360 --> 01:11:30,559 Speaker 1: a security guard is trying to stop you, or or 1111 01:11:30,680 --> 01:11:34,040 Speaker 1: a person saying, oh, look, I'm making a citizen's arrest. 1112 01:11:34,120 --> 01:11:36,360 Speaker 1: I don't know what you're doing right right right now? 1113 01:11:36,880 --> 01:11:38,640 Speaker 1: What do you what are you doing? Show me your 1114 01:11:38,680 --> 01:11:41,760 Speaker 1: I D? If A regular if A if it either 1115 01:11:42,200 --> 01:11:44,960 Speaker 1: if you knew you didn't do anything wrong Ralph and 1116 01:11:45,080 --> 01:11:49,120 Speaker 1: a security guard or a regular person just came up 1117 01:11:49,160 --> 01:11:50,840 Speaker 1: to you. It was like, show me, show me your 1118 01:11:50,880 --> 01:11:54,040 Speaker 1: I D. Where are you from? Where are you going? 1119 01:11:54,160 --> 01:11:58,960 Speaker 1: What are you gonna tell them? Nothing? Exactly like get 1120 01:11:58,960 --> 01:12:01,840 Speaker 1: out of my damn face. And that's exactly what the 1121 01:12:03,080 --> 01:12:05,639 Speaker 1: um these schools should be doing to the NT double 1122 01:12:05,680 --> 01:12:08,000 Speaker 1: a A A. You'll you'll like this. And maybe I've told 1123 01:12:08,040 --> 01:12:10,679 Speaker 1: this story before, but when I was eight years old, 1124 01:12:10,800 --> 01:12:13,280 Speaker 1: I got caught stealing a pack of basketball cards from 1125 01:12:13,280 --> 01:12:19,160 Speaker 1: an Albertson's grocery store, and the woman who caught me said, 1126 01:12:20,040 --> 01:12:23,160 Speaker 1: we're gonna tell your mom and just never do that again. 1127 01:12:23,840 --> 01:12:27,400 Speaker 1: And my step mom at the time uh that they 1128 01:12:27,400 --> 01:12:30,320 Speaker 1: were telling her, said, no, you need to punish him 1129 01:12:30,360 --> 01:12:33,360 Speaker 1: to the furthest extent possible so that he'll learn his lesson. 1130 01:12:34,280 --> 01:12:37,400 Speaker 1: And so they made us pay for the basketball cards 1131 01:12:37,680 --> 01:12:41,000 Speaker 1: plus a one fine, plus they banned my whole family 1132 01:12:41,120 --> 01:12:45,519 Speaker 1: until I turned eighteen, so the grocery store that my 1133 01:12:45,760 --> 01:12:49,360 Speaker 1: family liked to shop at they could no longer shop at. 1134 01:12:50,600 --> 01:12:54,320 Speaker 1: And that money I didn't have a hundred dollars to pay, 1135 01:12:54,800 --> 01:12:56,280 Speaker 1: and I have five dollars to buy the pack of 1136 01:12:56,320 --> 01:12:58,880 Speaker 1: basketball cards in the first place. So it cost my 1137 01:12:58,920 --> 01:13:01,679 Speaker 1: step mom a hundred five dollars and having to find 1138 01:13:01,680 --> 01:13:06,200 Speaker 1: a new grocery store, all because she said we needed 1139 01:13:06,240 --> 01:13:10,320 Speaker 1: to learn a lesson when getting caught was trust me 1140 01:13:10,439 --> 01:13:14,640 Speaker 1: bad enough, uh for for me. So when some of 1141 01:13:14,640 --> 01:13:16,960 Speaker 1: these schools go out there and they're like, all right, 1142 01:13:17,360 --> 01:13:18,760 Speaker 1: these are all the things that we're going to give 1143 01:13:18,840 --> 01:13:21,639 Speaker 1: up to punish ourselves, it always makes me laugh because 1144 01:13:21,640 --> 01:13:23,680 Speaker 1: it's like, what if it wouldn't have been that Like 1145 01:13:23,760 --> 01:13:26,439 Speaker 1: what if it wouldn't have even been that bad? The 1146 01:13:26,600 --> 01:13:31,559 Speaker 1: like LSU just offered up several scholarships over Odell Beckham Jr. 1147 01:13:31,600 --> 01:13:35,280 Speaker 1: And that's you know, it's just silly to me. You 1148 01:13:35,280 --> 01:13:37,280 Speaker 1: would have been better off waiting to see what they 1149 01:13:37,360 --> 01:13:38,960 Speaker 1: were going to do about it and chalking it up 1150 01:13:38,960 --> 01:13:48,360 Speaker 1: as a misunderstanding. Yeah, just to punish people, just for 1151 01:13:48,400 --> 01:13:51,679 Speaker 1: to take a puny. I that's a horrible story. Brow 1152 01:13:52,240 --> 01:13:56,120 Speaker 1: that's a horrible story. And you know I'm not gonna 1153 01:13:56,439 --> 01:14:00,200 Speaker 1: just I'm not gonna say anything about your stepmother. Um 1154 01:14:01,640 --> 01:14:06,640 Speaker 1: um so onto um oh there there there was a 1155 01:14:06,640 --> 01:14:11,000 Speaker 1: big piece of news out though it won't necessarily impact 1156 01:14:11,120 --> 01:14:14,919 Speaker 1: people who watch or listen to the PAC twelve so 1157 01:14:14,920 --> 01:14:18,799 Speaker 1: so much, but there was a man named Dave Hirsch 1158 01:14:19,720 --> 01:14:23,200 Speaker 1: who had been at the conference for twenty five years. 1159 01:14:23,680 --> 01:14:27,920 Speaker 1: Any time that I needed access to anything or when 1160 01:14:27,920 --> 01:14:30,400 Speaker 1: I was first getting credential with the PACK twelve and 1161 01:14:30,439 --> 01:14:32,519 Speaker 1: all this stuff, he was the guy that I went 1162 01:14:32,560 --> 01:14:35,280 Speaker 1: through to get email with, always to care of me. 1163 01:14:35,880 --> 01:14:38,960 Speaker 1: And now he's gone from the PAC twelve network. They 1164 01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:43,719 Speaker 1: agreed on a separation agreement, and it's like he feels 1165 01:14:43,800 --> 01:14:46,640 Speaker 1: like he's to me. It looked like he was a 1166 01:14:46,680 --> 01:14:49,840 Speaker 1: guy who sees he's on a sinking ship and it's like, nah, 1167 01:14:49,960 --> 01:14:55,040 Speaker 1: I'm out, I'm out before this ship sinks, and I'm 1168 01:14:55,080 --> 01:14:58,479 Speaker 1: just gonna go do something else. Yeah, I mean, I 1169 01:14:58,479 --> 01:15:00,519 Speaker 1: I can't speak for him, but I will say that 1170 01:15:00,560 --> 01:15:02,599 Speaker 1: if you go to his tweet of him just dropping 1171 01:15:02,600 --> 01:15:05,200 Speaker 1: a microphone in front of the Pack twelve sign, and 1172 01:15:05,280 --> 01:15:07,639 Speaker 1: it says it was an amazing twenty five year run. 1173 01:15:08,120 --> 01:15:11,840 Speaker 1: Look at the people who were in his replies, look 1174 01:15:11,880 --> 01:15:15,640 Speaker 1: at the people who quote tweeted him. It's nothing but 1175 01:15:15,840 --> 01:15:21,040 Speaker 1: respect and love and appreciation and just an outpouring of 1176 01:15:21,120 --> 01:15:24,679 Speaker 1: support and then the continuous sentiment of the Pack twelve. 1177 01:15:25,880 --> 01:15:31,599 Speaker 1: Uh is is in a worse place for having allowed 1178 01:15:31,720 --> 01:15:33,800 Speaker 1: him to be in a position to move on because 1179 01:15:33,800 --> 01:15:37,240 Speaker 1: they had already furloughed him. Um. But I mean some 1180 01:15:37,320 --> 01:15:40,240 Speaker 1: of these names, remember Ted Miller, who used to cover 1181 01:15:40,280 --> 01:15:43,920 Speaker 1: the Pack twelve for ESPN, Greg Byrne, the former University 1182 01:15:43,920 --> 01:15:46,400 Speaker 1: of Arizona athletic director who is now the athletic director 1183 01:15:46,800 --> 01:15:52,120 Speaker 1: at University of Alabama. Adam Ritterberg from ESPN. Stu Mandel 1184 01:15:53,320 --> 01:15:57,360 Speaker 1: is in here, Dennis Dodd from from CBS, Sunny dikes Um, 1185 01:15:57,479 --> 01:16:01,440 Speaker 1: former head coach of of cal is in his mentions 1186 01:16:01,880 --> 01:16:04,559 Speaker 1: wishing him the best, and and uh, I mean it's 1187 01:16:04,560 --> 01:16:08,200 Speaker 1: just absolutely nothing but glowing reviews and positivity and people 1188 01:16:08,600 --> 01:16:11,040 Speaker 1: appreciating it. Seems like a really really great man. And 1189 01:16:11,080 --> 01:16:13,160 Speaker 1: it seems like that's the last kind of person that 1190 01:16:13,200 --> 01:16:16,240 Speaker 1: you'd want to not be attached to if if you 1191 01:16:16,280 --> 01:16:20,920 Speaker 1: were the um, if you were this conference. UM. And 1192 01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:23,680 Speaker 1: that's not to say that they can't find somebody who's 1193 01:16:23,720 --> 01:16:26,080 Speaker 1: also good, but it just always seems to be that, 1194 01:16:26,160 --> 01:16:28,040 Speaker 1: you know, the Pact twelve can't have nice things, and 1195 01:16:28,040 --> 01:16:31,160 Speaker 1: the one nice thing that it did have, um uh 1196 01:16:31,560 --> 01:16:36,439 Speaker 1: in Dave Hirsch is now moved on. You know. Yeah, 1197 01:16:36,520 --> 01:16:42,160 Speaker 1: that's a that's a big deal. And Okay, I don't 1198 01:16:42,400 --> 01:16:44,639 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna tell and I'm going to preface this 1199 01:16:44,800 --> 01:16:50,080 Speaker 1: by this is not a statement made upon inside information 1200 01:16:51,160 --> 01:16:56,320 Speaker 1: or anything. This is just me reading the tea leaves. 1201 01:16:57,640 --> 01:17:02,560 Speaker 1: If the PAC twelve is laying people off, yes to 1202 01:17:02,720 --> 01:17:06,280 Speaker 1: bringing some of them back, they're farming out some of 1203 01:17:06,280 --> 01:17:10,240 Speaker 1: their games. They're farming out games. They don't have a 1204 01:17:10,280 --> 01:17:14,599 Speaker 1: full staff for the future. They're paying way too much 1205 01:17:14,680 --> 01:17:20,120 Speaker 1: for their lease. The commissioner is in a in limbo, 1206 01:17:20,240 --> 01:17:22,200 Speaker 1: whether he's going to be back or not. You're trying 1207 01:17:22,240 --> 01:17:26,839 Speaker 1: to negotiate a new deal. Am I Like it feels 1208 01:17:26,880 --> 01:17:29,559 Speaker 1: like to me that the PAC twelve network is leaving. 1209 01:17:31,120 --> 01:17:34,479 Speaker 1: We I mean that that we have seen the end 1210 01:17:34,560 --> 01:17:38,599 Speaker 1: of it, at least in its current form where it's 1211 01:17:38,720 --> 01:17:42,320 Speaker 1: multiple networks, where you have the Mountain Network, the Oregons, 1212 01:17:42,400 --> 01:17:45,600 Speaker 1: the you know, I mean, the the Desert, and the 1213 01:17:45,880 --> 01:17:48,200 Speaker 1: l A. I think that you're gonna have more of 1214 01:17:48,240 --> 01:17:52,120 Speaker 1: a like a Pack twelve, that the PAC twelve network 1215 01:17:52,240 --> 01:17:55,400 Speaker 1: is gonna look like the SEC or a CC network 1216 01:17:55,439 --> 01:17:58,080 Speaker 1: where it's run by a big corporate partner, and that 1217 01:17:58,200 --> 01:18:00,160 Speaker 1: that that will have been and and we just to 1218 01:18:00,160 --> 01:18:02,599 Speaker 1: make sure that people realize that it will have been 1219 01:18:02,760 --> 01:18:06,320 Speaker 1: there because they ran it into the ground. Um, but hey, 1220 01:18:06,760 --> 01:18:09,719 Speaker 1: it's you might be uh, you might just be really 1221 01:18:09,760 --> 01:18:12,559 Speaker 1: tuned in. It could be more than just you're reading 1222 01:18:12,600 --> 01:18:14,080 Speaker 1: the tea leaves, because every once in a while we 1223 01:18:14,120 --> 01:18:16,040 Speaker 1: do break a little bit of network news on this show. 1224 01:18:16,280 --> 01:18:18,599 Speaker 1: If you remember a couple episodes ago, I told you 1225 01:18:18,720 --> 01:18:20,720 Speaker 1: that Fox Sports Regional was going to be dumped off 1226 01:18:20,760 --> 01:18:27,439 Speaker 1: Hulu and what happened boom, Yeah, And so we were there. 1227 01:18:27,520 --> 01:18:30,920 Speaker 1: We do know people. Um, I would say that that 1228 01:18:30,920 --> 01:18:33,479 Speaker 1: that's probably the best path forward, the idea that they 1229 01:18:33,479 --> 01:18:36,720 Speaker 1: would try to salvage things and rebuild with something that 1230 01:18:36,880 --> 01:18:40,680 Speaker 1: wasn't necessarily working. Is uh, It's not out of the 1231 01:18:40,760 --> 01:18:43,840 Speaker 1: question for Larry Scott to try to do something like that. UM. 1232 01:18:43,880 --> 01:18:46,400 Speaker 1: I did find it interesting in John Wilner's most recent 1233 01:18:46,680 --> 01:18:54,680 Speaker 1: column that UM they executive vice president for content of 1234 01:18:54,760 --> 01:18:58,640 Speaker 1: the PACK twelve network, Larry Myers told John Wilner, we 1235 01:18:58,720 --> 01:19:01,519 Speaker 1: will be as active as we can to push people 1236 01:19:01,560 --> 01:19:04,400 Speaker 1: to the games on Fox and ESPN. And I've been 1237 01:19:04,520 --> 01:19:07,280 Speaker 1: laughing about that quote all week because it makes the 1238 01:19:07,320 --> 01:19:11,559 Speaker 1: assumption that somebody's watching the PAC twelve network, which isn't 1239 01:19:11,680 --> 01:19:16,080 Speaker 1: erring games or the middle of the week show like 1240 01:19:16,160 --> 01:19:19,479 Speaker 1: they were doing before. Why would so they're gonna do 1241 01:19:19,560 --> 01:19:23,000 Speaker 1: their absolute best to push the people who accidentally turned 1242 01:19:23,040 --> 01:19:25,360 Speaker 1: their channel to the PAC twelve network to one of 1243 01:19:25,400 --> 01:19:29,800 Speaker 1: the other national networks that are readily available. What do 1244 01:19:29,800 --> 01:19:31,920 Speaker 1: you mean you're gonna you're gonna be as active as 1245 01:19:31,960 --> 01:19:33,679 Speaker 1: you can to push people to the games on Fox 1246 01:19:33,720 --> 01:19:36,360 Speaker 1: and ESPN. You don't have their attention anyway, because you 1247 01:19:36,400 --> 01:19:40,160 Speaker 1: don't have anything for them to pay attention to. That's 1248 01:19:40,200 --> 01:19:43,880 Speaker 1: like me saying I'm going to do the best job 1249 01:19:44,080 --> 01:19:52,920 Speaker 1: that I possibly can to get people to UM listen 1250 01:19:53,280 --> 01:19:58,880 Speaker 1: to Clay Travis, But like nobody's listening to me for 1251 01:19:59,000 --> 01:20:01,479 Speaker 1: my opinion on whether or not they should listen to 1252 01:20:01,520 --> 01:20:04,200 Speaker 1: Clay Travis when they could just listen to Clay Travis. 1253 01:20:04,200 --> 01:20:06,120 Speaker 1: He's got a much bigger platform than I ever would. 1254 01:20:07,120 --> 01:20:08,840 Speaker 1: No one's coming to me for an opinion on that. 1255 01:20:09,040 --> 01:20:12,080 Speaker 1: On that sort of thing, it doesn't make sense, you know. 1256 01:20:12,320 --> 01:20:14,240 Speaker 1: So it's like me saying like, hey, I'm gonna push 1257 01:20:14,320 --> 01:20:17,400 Speaker 1: people as much as they possibly can to to make 1258 01:20:17,439 --> 01:20:20,000 Speaker 1: sure that a show wins an Oscar an Emmy. It's 1259 01:20:20,040 --> 01:20:22,519 Speaker 1: not up to me, and it's definitely not up to 1260 01:20:22,560 --> 01:20:25,559 Speaker 1: the Pack twelve network to determine if ratings are good 1261 01:20:25,880 --> 01:20:27,840 Speaker 1: on any of these other networks, because nobody's gonna be 1262 01:20:27,840 --> 01:20:31,479 Speaker 1: tuned in the Pack twelve network anyway. So they're still 1263 01:20:31,479 --> 01:20:34,160 Speaker 1: gonna have the post game Show, which by then it 1264 01:20:34,200 --> 01:20:37,479 Speaker 1: will have been too late, and that'll have Yogi Roth 1265 01:20:37,520 --> 01:20:39,760 Speaker 1: and Ashley Adamson. But the Pac twelve network isn't really 1266 01:20:39,760 --> 01:20:44,160 Speaker 1: doing anything else. No Saturday pregame show, no midweek studio show. 1267 01:20:46,439 --> 01:20:50,000 Speaker 1: They're just gonna um, They're just going to have the 1268 01:20:50,000 --> 01:20:56,040 Speaker 1: Pack twelve and sixty broadcasts. Yep. I just don't see. Yeah, 1269 01:20:56,120 --> 01:21:01,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I guess I guess, I guess, uh, it 1270 01:21:01,400 --> 01:21:05,759 Speaker 1: just feels sad, dude, Like I I want so much 1271 01:21:05,800 --> 01:21:10,639 Speaker 1: for the conference. Like I tell my kid this sometimes 1272 01:21:10,720 --> 01:21:13,320 Speaker 1: when it comes to his sports and working out and 1273 01:21:13,360 --> 01:21:16,840 Speaker 1: all of this, I'm like, son, I can't want this 1274 01:21:16,960 --> 01:21:19,800 Speaker 1: more than you want it, Like you like, this has 1275 01:21:19,840 --> 01:21:23,040 Speaker 1: to be more important to you. And I think us 1276 01:21:23,160 --> 01:21:27,519 Speaker 1: fans that the success of this feels like we want 1277 01:21:27,520 --> 01:21:31,320 Speaker 1: it more and are willing to do whatever it takes, 1278 01:21:31,360 --> 01:21:36,120 Speaker 1: even though it may hurt two to make it happen. 1279 01:21:36,920 --> 01:21:39,920 Speaker 1: And like I've read a lot of business books and 1280 01:21:39,960 --> 01:21:43,000 Speaker 1: all of this, and all of them all talk about pivoting. 1281 01:21:44,000 --> 01:21:48,360 Speaker 1: That sometimes you will start with one business model, like 1282 01:21:48,520 --> 01:21:53,320 Speaker 1: where you know where HP started out doing one thing 1283 01:21:53,400 --> 01:21:56,559 Speaker 1: and now they're doing another. You have Oracle was doing 1284 01:21:56,600 --> 01:22:00,240 Speaker 1: one thing now doing another. Apple is doing different things 1285 01:22:00,280 --> 01:22:02,840 Speaker 1: that they were doing. Like you like, you have to 1286 01:22:03,040 --> 01:22:07,920 Speaker 1: pivot and it fits and that that's not failure, that 1287 01:22:07,920 --> 01:22:10,439 Speaker 1: that's just saying, all right, what we're doing is gonna 1288 01:22:10,479 --> 01:22:14,800 Speaker 1: put us out of business. The Pack twelve is Blockbuster 1289 01:22:15,280 --> 01:22:21,439 Speaker 1: right now, Blockbuster Video. They didn't pivot when Netfoot when 1290 01:22:21,479 --> 01:22:25,559 Speaker 1: they understood that DSL was coming out, and they didn't 1291 01:22:25,560 --> 01:22:29,000 Speaker 1: believe that it was because they were getting of the 1292 01:22:29,120 --> 01:22:33,400 Speaker 1: revenue from late fees, so those terrible late fees that 1293 01:22:33,400 --> 01:22:35,960 Speaker 1: they usould charge people, and they were busy. They were 1294 01:22:35,960 --> 01:22:38,200 Speaker 1: patting themselves on the back for putting Hollywood Video out 1295 01:22:38,200 --> 01:22:43,280 Speaker 1: of business. Yep. So instead of pivoting their business to 1296 01:22:43,320 --> 01:22:47,759 Speaker 1: a different model, they were like, no, because that's failure. 1297 01:22:48,840 --> 01:22:53,320 Speaker 1: No failure is letting your business die. And the PAC 1298 01:22:53,400 --> 01:22:56,240 Speaker 1: twelve is not pivoting right right now, and it needs 1299 01:22:56,280 --> 01:22:59,080 Speaker 1: to just blow out the Pack twelve network because it 1300 01:22:59,120 --> 01:23:02,960 Speaker 1: didn't work. It's okay, like like like I remember when 1301 01:23:04,040 --> 01:23:07,000 Speaker 1: Microsoft came out with the with the Zoom that was 1302 01:23:07,040 --> 01:23:12,599 Speaker 1: supposed to uh stop the stop the iPod, like it 1303 01:23:12,640 --> 01:23:15,919 Speaker 1: didn't work, and and what what didn't? Instead of Microsoft 1304 01:23:16,000 --> 01:23:18,680 Speaker 1: continuing to forge down this path, they were like, you 1305 01:23:18,720 --> 01:23:21,880 Speaker 1: know what, this didn't work. Throw it, throw it away, 1306 01:23:21,920 --> 01:23:26,200 Speaker 1: throw it in the trash and begin again. Well, I 1307 01:23:29,000 --> 01:23:34,400 Speaker 1: that when you're so tied to your product. The PAC 1308 01:23:34,479 --> 01:23:37,120 Speaker 1: twelve network is sort of Larry Scott's baby right then, 1309 01:23:37,320 --> 01:23:42,040 Speaker 1: that it would be the only be fired. He needs 1310 01:23:42,040 --> 01:23:45,680 Speaker 1: to be fired. All right, Um, you're we're we're up 1311 01:23:45,720 --> 01:23:52,959 Speaker 1: to your specialty, Ralph. You're the recruiting in the pac twelve. UM. 1312 01:23:53,000 --> 01:23:54,640 Speaker 1: I don't have much of a I don't have much 1313 01:23:54,640 --> 01:23:57,960 Speaker 1: of an update this week. I do know that U 1314 01:23:58,000 --> 01:24:02,240 Speaker 1: c l A lost a recruit from last year to 1315 01:24:02,320 --> 01:24:05,040 Speaker 1: the transfer portal, and we're about to see a lot 1316 01:24:05,080 --> 01:24:08,080 Speaker 1: of activity pick up UM the transfer portal. Today was 1317 01:24:08,120 --> 01:24:10,200 Speaker 1: a big day. Tomorrow is going to be even bigger. 1318 01:24:10,640 --> 01:24:13,120 Speaker 1: But Jamon McClendon, who was a three star running back 1319 01:24:13,720 --> 01:24:17,719 Speaker 1: at A Spring Valley, California, decided that he is going 1320 01:24:17,760 --> 01:24:20,160 Speaker 1: to leave U c l A. So they lost a 1321 01:24:20,200 --> 01:24:24,920 Speaker 1: player UM Mississippi State, which is not a pactual team obviously, 1322 01:24:24,920 --> 01:24:26,439 Speaker 1: but they have Mike Leach out there. We had talked 1323 01:24:26,439 --> 01:24:28,000 Speaker 1: about how he was going to trim some of the fat. 1324 01:24:28,400 --> 01:24:32,040 Speaker 1: They lost like six players UM within the last week, 1325 01:24:32,080 --> 01:24:35,080 Speaker 1: including two really high level running backs UH and a 1326 01:24:35,080 --> 01:24:38,439 Speaker 1: couple of quarterbacks to which I thought was kind of interesting. UM. 1327 01:24:38,479 --> 01:24:41,000 Speaker 1: And that's you know, people are, people are on the move, 1328 01:24:41,120 --> 01:24:43,400 Speaker 1: especially now that you can transfer without penalty. It's going 1329 01:24:43,439 --> 01:24:47,000 Speaker 1: to be very interesting to see how all that turns out. 1330 01:24:47,000 --> 01:24:50,160 Speaker 1: And then I know that a player from Mission V 1331 01:24:50,320 --> 01:24:52,639 Speaker 1: A HO and I'm trying to look him up right now, 1332 01:24:53,360 --> 01:24:58,320 Speaker 1: committed to Oregon State UM. The Mission Viejo always produces 1333 01:24:58,840 --> 01:25:01,679 Speaker 1: high level recruit or two at least every single year. 1334 01:25:02,400 --> 01:25:05,719 Speaker 1: Um and uh, and they were able to get an athlete. 1335 01:25:05,760 --> 01:25:09,280 Speaker 1: And I'm just having a little bit of trouble um 1336 01:25:09,280 --> 01:25:12,839 Speaker 1: locating who they got. So just give me a second. 1337 01:25:12,920 --> 01:25:16,000 Speaker 1: But there wasn't really a whole lot of recruiting activity. 1338 01:25:16,080 --> 01:25:18,439 Speaker 1: You know, we talked last week about Arizona State, about 1339 01:25:18,560 --> 01:25:22,479 Speaker 1: Jimmy Jimmy Vallas. No, not a kids from Texas. Oh 1340 01:25:23,000 --> 01:25:26,599 Speaker 1: oh they know. Actually that kid was already committed from 1341 01:25:27,000 --> 01:25:32,680 Speaker 1: Eastern Matha Carenas, Eastern Massacrenas. Yeah. Was he somebody who 1342 01:25:32,720 --> 01:25:34,840 Speaker 1: was already committed and he was just getting an interview? Okay, 1343 01:25:35,040 --> 01:25:36,720 Speaker 1: I saw that come across my timeline from one of 1344 01:25:36,760 --> 01:25:40,000 Speaker 1: my rivals colleagues out at Beaver's Edge dot com Um 1345 01:25:40,040 --> 01:25:42,280 Speaker 1: and yeah, it looks like that's just interview, not not 1346 01:25:42,360 --> 01:25:46,000 Speaker 1: a ton of recruiting um stuff to go on right now, 1347 01:25:46,520 --> 01:25:49,760 Speaker 1: A s U, everybody's kind of after that same quarterback 1348 01:25:49,800 --> 01:25:54,280 Speaker 1: from Utah. Um, you know, so Art, Yeah, all our 1349 01:25:54,320 --> 01:25:55,560 Speaker 1: all eyes are on him. I think his name is 1350 01:25:55,640 --> 01:25:58,439 Speaker 1: Jackson Dart. A s U and USC both have their 1351 01:25:58,439 --> 01:26:02,320 Speaker 1: fingers crossed. Um. So you know what we'll keep it up, 1352 01:26:03,360 --> 01:26:07,200 Speaker 1: which which which means USC is recruiting him because he's 1353 01:26:07,200 --> 01:26:10,400 Speaker 1: flying up boards right now, because he's lightening it up. 1354 01:26:11,880 --> 01:26:17,000 Speaker 1: But there's no way that they keep Jake Garcia, Miller 1355 01:26:17,080 --> 01:26:22,720 Speaker 1: Moss and sign Dart as well, like the like, that's 1356 01:26:22,800 --> 01:26:26,680 Speaker 1: the definition of bad recruiting. If you recruit three quarterbacks 1357 01:26:27,240 --> 01:26:30,760 Speaker 1: like that? What is your quarterback evaluation process? I get 1358 01:26:30,800 --> 01:26:35,400 Speaker 1: to but three like and and if you can convince 1359 01:26:35,479 --> 01:26:38,400 Speaker 1: all three to sign you, are you? You? You've actually 1360 01:26:38,400 --> 01:26:43,599 Speaker 1: turned from like coaching to a pimping. I don't know, man, 1361 01:26:43,640 --> 01:26:45,920 Speaker 1: there there's there's people out there that believe you get 1362 01:26:45,960 --> 01:26:50,320 Speaker 1: as many. I mean, Washington State had seven scholarship quarterbacks 1363 01:26:50,320 --> 01:26:52,599 Speaker 1: on the roster last year. I think so. I think 1364 01:26:52,640 --> 01:26:54,640 Speaker 1: the attitude is you just bringing a bunch of people in. 1365 01:26:54,640 --> 01:26:56,479 Speaker 1: The cream rises to the top and everything else will 1366 01:26:56,479 --> 01:26:59,840 Speaker 1: sort itself out. So what the difference is is that 1367 01:27:00,040 --> 01:27:03,439 Speaker 1: like they weren't bringing in all you know, they weren't 1368 01:27:03,439 --> 01:27:08,559 Speaker 1: bringing in you know, three four star quarterbacks. I mean, 1369 01:27:08,720 --> 01:27:12,800 Speaker 1: like that doesn't happen because they usually go somewhere where 1370 01:27:12,840 --> 01:27:16,519 Speaker 1: they want to play. But at least no pack twelve 1371 01:27:16,560 --> 01:27:19,280 Speaker 1: teams are turning me into Texas, right now right now, 1372 01:27:19,320 --> 01:27:25,679 Speaker 1: who's having decommitments in their U there on their board, 1373 01:27:26,280 --> 01:27:31,479 Speaker 1: there's a a thing that says Tech Tom Herman fired 1374 01:27:31,600 --> 01:27:35,840 Speaker 1: for cause like get out of here. They're trying to 1375 01:27:36,200 --> 01:27:38,799 Speaker 1: they're trying to see if they can, oh breaking news. 1376 01:27:38,920 --> 01:27:42,200 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence test POSSI. I was gonna tell you, yes, 1377 01:27:42,320 --> 01:27:46,160 Speaker 1: he does bother for COVID. Well, I guarantee you he 1378 01:27:46,200 --> 01:27:49,559 Speaker 1: will beat it. He that's what he does is wins things. 1379 01:27:49,560 --> 01:27:53,160 Speaker 1: And speaking of COVID, yeah, I want to I want 1380 01:27:53,160 --> 01:27:55,080 Speaker 1: to get a shout out to one of our listeners 1381 01:27:55,120 --> 01:27:58,240 Speaker 1: who actually checked into the er tonight, Paul Angel, who 1382 01:27:58,360 --> 01:28:01,120 Speaker 1: you know leaves us reviews. He tweets at us every 1383 01:28:01,120 --> 01:28:04,720 Speaker 1: single week, and this really checked into the hospital. He 1384 01:28:04,840 --> 01:28:08,400 Speaker 1: checked in the hospital, got diagnosed. Yeah, yeah, And so 1385 01:28:08,840 --> 01:28:10,640 Speaker 1: shout out to him. I asked him if there was 1386 01:28:10,680 --> 01:28:12,360 Speaker 1: anything we could do, and he said, you and George 1387 01:28:12,400 --> 01:28:15,080 Speaker 1: Ricester can record one podcast without any negative a s 1388 01:28:15,160 --> 01:28:17,960 Speaker 1: U remarks. And I've been keeping track. I think we 1389 01:28:18,000 --> 01:28:22,519 Speaker 1: did it today. Yes, yeah, we yea, we have not 1390 01:28:23,680 --> 01:28:28,120 Speaker 1: we have not man.

And 1394 01:28:39,760 --> 01:28:43,120 Speaker 1: we we appreciate your Paul hanging there. UM keep us 1395 01:28:43,200 --> 01:28:45,040 Speaker 1: updated because I think it's important. There's a lot of 1396 01:28:45,040 --> 01:28:47,639 Speaker 1: people who are who who get COVID and are ashamed 1397 01:28:47,680 --> 01:28:50,400 Speaker 1: of it, um, and I really don't like the shame 1398 01:28:50,400 --> 01:28:53,880 Speaker 1: that's associated with UM, this this whole thing. And and 1399 01:28:54,120 --> 01:28:55,680 Speaker 1: you know, I love that you've just kind of been 1400 01:28:55,680 --> 01:28:58,360 Speaker 1: putting what you're going through out there for other people 1401 01:28:58,360 --> 01:28:59,880 Speaker 1: to see, so that they know that you know, if 1402 01:29:00,200 --> 01:29:03,400 Speaker 1: they're symptomatic, you know what to what to look out for, 1403 01:29:03,479 --> 01:29:06,240 Speaker 1: and that they know, um, if things get to a 1404 01:29:06,280 --> 01:29:07,960 Speaker 1: certain point that you know, they need to take care 1405 01:29:08,000 --> 01:29:09,880 Speaker 1: of themselves. The fact that you're putting that stuff out there, 1406 01:29:09,880 --> 01:29:12,559 Speaker 1: I think is a is a huge service to to everybody. 1407 01:29:12,600 --> 01:29:16,360 Speaker 1: We appreciate you and uh and heal up soon. Well 1408 01:29:17,640 --> 01:29:20,519 Speaker 1: that's the part of this whole thing, to just divert 1409 01:29:20,680 --> 01:29:25,000 Speaker 1: for a second that that a lot of people because 1410 01:29:25,040 --> 01:29:29,400 Speaker 1: they're clearly surging numbers across the country. Was Wisconsin is 1411 01:29:29,400 --> 01:29:31,880 Speaker 1: one of the stakes they had a game canceled all 1412 01:29:31,880 --> 01:29:38,120 Speaker 1: of that that people, Yes, everybody has COVID fatigue, we 1413 01:29:38,160 --> 01:29:41,840 Speaker 1: all wanted to be over. But people are acting like 1414 01:29:41,920 --> 01:29:44,080 Speaker 1: that this is not a big deal and they don't 1415 01:29:44,160 --> 01:29:46,479 Speaker 1: get it into I'm I'm not saying any way that 1416 01:29:46,560 --> 01:29:48,680 Speaker 1: this is Paul, Like I'm just I'm just speaking just 1417 01:29:48,760 --> 01:29:52,000 Speaker 1: about in general, because you will see comments and all 1418 01:29:52,000 --> 01:29:55,800 Speaker 1: this stuff. People don't believe it's real until somebody that 1419 01:29:55,880 --> 01:30:00,040 Speaker 1: they care about, like Paul or somebody that matters to 1420 01:30:00,040 --> 01:30:02,880 Speaker 1: to them, that it shows up at their doorstep, and 1421 01:30:02,920 --> 01:30:06,000 Speaker 1: then then they're like, oh, wow, this is actually pretty serious. 1422 01:30:06,560 --> 01:30:09,959 Speaker 1: And granted, the majority of people are not going to die, however, 1423 01:30:10,560 --> 01:30:14,000 Speaker 1: a lot of people have really terrible experiences and they have, 1424 01:30:14,560 --> 01:30:17,479 Speaker 1: you know, things that they're dealing with for months upon months. 1425 01:30:18,080 --> 01:30:23,200 Speaker 1: So like, let's just be kind to people in these situations, 1426 01:30:23,240 --> 01:30:27,439 Speaker 1: because it's not just just conscientiousness. And I and I, 1427 01:30:27,560 --> 01:30:30,280 Speaker 1: you know, I've been following Paul throughout this, you know, 1428 01:30:30,280 --> 01:30:32,040 Speaker 1: the whole thing, and he, you know, he's been somebody 1429 01:30:32,080 --> 01:30:34,320 Speaker 1: who has been most people are. You know, I'm in 1430 01:30:34,320 --> 01:30:37,120 Speaker 1: a situation where I go to two or three different 1431 01:30:37,160 --> 01:30:39,960 Speaker 1: high school football games a week and just hope, you know, 1432 01:30:40,040 --> 01:30:42,639 Speaker 1: I keep my distance, and but at the same time, 1433 01:30:42,640 --> 01:30:44,240 Speaker 1: it's like, you know, I'm I'm out here and I'm 1434 01:30:44,240 --> 01:30:47,160 Speaker 1: seeing the you know, some of these schools have the 1435 01:30:47,240 --> 01:30:49,840 Speaker 1: stands full and people aren't as massed up as they 1436 01:30:49,880 --> 01:30:52,720 Speaker 1: should be. And out here in Arizona, every single week 1437 01:30:52,760 --> 01:30:56,840 Speaker 1: about eight or nine games get canceled um due to 1438 01:30:57,479 --> 01:31:00,479 Speaker 1: players and stuff testing positive. And it's just it's it's 1439 01:31:00,600 --> 01:31:02,960 Speaker 1: there's nothing you could do that, you know, the only 1440 01:31:03,000 --> 01:31:08,840 Speaker 1: thing that you can do is try to be conscientious, sanitary, 1441 01:31:09,000 --> 01:31:12,800 Speaker 1: and keep your distance. And you know, some people don't 1442 01:31:12,840 --> 01:31:15,960 Speaker 1: want to do the conscientious part. They don't want to 1443 01:31:15,960 --> 01:31:18,439 Speaker 1: wear a mask, and they don't want to limit their 1444 01:31:19,040 --> 01:31:23,000 Speaker 1: activity and their travel. They would rather take the risk 1445 01:31:23,120 --> 01:31:27,640 Speaker 1: then feel constricted. And I understand it. I totally get it. 1446 01:31:28,160 --> 01:31:31,200 Speaker 1: I don't blame you for feeling that way. But all 1447 01:31:31,240 --> 01:31:34,680 Speaker 1: we have is our actions, right, and so um, I 1448 01:31:34,720 --> 01:31:36,920 Speaker 1: hope people will act in a way that that that 1449 01:31:37,040 --> 01:31:39,160 Speaker 1: helps us get to a point where there's not another 1450 01:31:39,200 --> 01:31:43,000 Speaker 1: massive spike, and that ultimately it serves your own selfish 1451 01:31:43,000 --> 01:31:46,640 Speaker 1: purposes that we get to see some football. So you know, 1452 01:31:46,880 --> 01:31:49,840 Speaker 1: that's the best of luck to Paul, and also to 1453 01:31:49,960 --> 01:31:54,120 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence apparently who will be missing Saturday's game against 1454 01:31:54,160 --> 01:31:59,519 Speaker 1: Boston College. Well and depending on when they say it, 1455 01:31:59,720 --> 01:32:06,400 Speaker 1: Like if he is asymptomatic. Um, if he's asymptomatic, if 1456 01:32:06,439 --> 01:32:09,920 Speaker 1: they say his symptoms started on Monday, then he'll still 1457 01:32:09,960 --> 01:32:12,320 Speaker 1: be good to play against Notre Dame because the a 1458 01:32:12,439 --> 01:32:16,559 Speaker 1: c C has a tendai policy. So but if they 1459 01:32:16,600 --> 01:32:21,680 Speaker 1: say his symptoms started today, he'll be out on for 1460 01:32:21,840 --> 01:32:29,800 Speaker 1: the Notre Dame game in two cents, in two saturdays. Yeah, so, 1461 01:32:29,800 --> 01:32:32,960 Speaker 1: so just let that sink in a little bit. Yeah, 1462 01:32:33,000 --> 01:32:36,720 Speaker 1: I mean, so, I mean, and yeah, I guess, uh, 1463 01:32:37,080 --> 01:32:39,599 Speaker 1: getting drafted by the Jets is only the second worst 1464 01:32:39,640 --> 01:32:41,479 Speaker 1: thing that's going to happen to him in the last 1465 01:32:42,080 --> 01:32:43,840 Speaker 1: and in the in the in the next few months. 1466 01:32:44,439 --> 01:32:47,920 Speaker 1: Well and and and that's the thing, right so if 1467 01:32:48,560 --> 01:32:53,680 Speaker 1: so I go, Let's say that Trevor Lawrence. Okay, that's 1468 01:32:53,720 --> 01:32:57,200 Speaker 1: just a hypothetical question. Let's say that Trevor Lawrence does 1469 01:32:57,280 --> 01:33:01,519 Speaker 1: get sick right like then, and he has to I mean, 1470 01:33:01,520 --> 01:33:05,280 Speaker 1: because like the the the kid from the Jaguars right right, well, 1471 01:33:06,200 --> 01:33:08,800 Speaker 1: I forgot his last name, um where he can't play 1472 01:33:08,800 --> 01:33:11,840 Speaker 1: this season? If that, if something like that happened to 1473 01:33:11,840 --> 01:33:16,439 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence, would they shut down college football? No? No, 1474 01:33:16,680 --> 01:33:19,200 Speaker 1: I don't think anything stopping this train, if if, if 1475 01:33:19,200 --> 01:33:24,240 Speaker 1: it hasn't stopped by now, people, there's um, there's no way, 1476 01:33:24,280 --> 01:33:27,880 Speaker 1: there's absolutely no way. But um and I'm you know, 1477 01:33:27,880 --> 01:33:30,960 Speaker 1: I'm definitely not rooting for that to happen, but it will, 1478 01:33:31,000 --> 01:33:35,519 Speaker 1: you know, it'll matter to some you know, like you said, 1479 01:33:35,600 --> 01:33:40,320 Speaker 1: every everyone takes their own experience into account. You know, 1480 01:33:40,880 --> 01:33:46,200 Speaker 1: when I saw a Utah Jazz game gets stopped right 1481 01:33:46,240 --> 01:33:48,519 Speaker 1: before tip off, that was that was it for me. 1482 01:33:48,600 --> 01:33:50,880 Speaker 1: That was everything I needed to know, you know, right 1483 01:33:50,960 --> 01:33:53,720 Speaker 1: right then and there. And I've had family affected by it. 1484 01:33:53,800 --> 01:33:56,799 Speaker 1: I've you know, I've both, like I said on this podcast, 1485 01:33:56,840 --> 01:33:58,960 Speaker 1: my in laws both you know, they made it through 1486 01:33:59,320 --> 01:34:03,680 Speaker 1: um you know, my my my father in law's you know, 1487 01:34:03,720 --> 01:34:07,400 Speaker 1: secretary ended up hospitalized. I've had a lot of other people, um, 1488 01:34:07,439 --> 01:34:10,280 Speaker 1: you know, go through it and and and have some 1489 01:34:10,479 --> 01:34:12,760 Speaker 1: pretty bad after effects. And you know, we got some 1490 01:34:12,800 --> 01:34:15,439 Speaker 1: family friends who lost parents and grandparents. And I got 1491 01:34:15,479 --> 01:34:17,720 Speaker 1: somebody who works for me on my staff who lost 1492 01:34:17,760 --> 01:34:21,320 Speaker 1: their father in law. You know, it it's everywhere, and 1493 01:34:21,320 --> 01:34:24,280 Speaker 1: it's definitely hitting close to home. And and you know, 1494 01:34:24,400 --> 01:34:26,479 Speaker 1: so I get it because it's all over the place 1495 01:34:26,520 --> 01:34:29,000 Speaker 1: and in my life and and then some people get it, 1496 01:34:29,040 --> 01:34:31,960 Speaker 1: but they're but they're they're making a calculated risk and 1497 01:34:32,000 --> 01:34:35,679 Speaker 1: saying that, you know, I would rather live according to 1498 01:34:35,760 --> 01:34:44,559 Speaker 1: my principles than um, then you know, be restricted. Um 1499 01:34:44,600 --> 01:34:46,240 Speaker 1: and if and if I get it and die, I 1500 01:34:46,280 --> 01:34:48,519 Speaker 1: get it and die and and and that's you know, 1501 01:34:48,560 --> 01:34:51,439 Speaker 1: they're they're free to do that. Unfortunately, it affects all 1502 01:34:51,520 --> 01:34:54,639 Speaker 1: of us. You know, what happens affects all of us. Um. 1503 01:34:55,280 --> 01:34:59,400 Speaker 1: But I think that at the end of the day, Um, 1504 01:34:59,439 --> 01:35:02,639 Speaker 1: you know, you can only control yourself. And I'm trying 1505 01:35:02,680 --> 01:35:05,120 Speaker 1: to do my best job and I think you are too, 1506 01:35:05,840 --> 01:35:10,280 Speaker 1: And uh, yeah, that's all you can really do is 1507 01:35:09,920 --> 01:35:12,439 Speaker 1: is do your best. And unfortunately it's going to be 1508 01:35:12,479 --> 01:35:14,800 Speaker 1: with us, you know, until we have a vaccine. And 1509 01:35:14,800 --> 01:35:17,559 Speaker 1: then past that, obviously, you know, we're just gonna have 1510 01:35:17,560 --> 01:35:20,200 Speaker 1: to learn to live with it. But until we have 1511 01:35:20,240 --> 01:35:23,360 Speaker 1: a vaccine and we can save a few hundred thousand lives, um, 1512 01:35:23,400 --> 01:35:27,000 Speaker 1: you know, we just gotta we gotta chill, uh, if 1513 01:35:27,040 --> 01:35:29,559 Speaker 1: if we can. And I wish the best for Everybody's 1514 01:35:29,600 --> 01:35:31,080 Speaker 1: a flickable And I don't think you should be ashamed 1515 01:35:31,080 --> 01:35:33,720 Speaker 1: if you get it. And I think if you were 1516 01:35:33,800 --> 01:35:36,320 Speaker 1: acting carelessly and you've got it in the process, as 1517 01:35:36,320 --> 01:35:38,040 Speaker 1: long as you're able to learn something from that and 1518 01:35:38,040 --> 01:35:40,840 Speaker 1: try to, you know, help other people. From that point on, 1519 01:35:40,920 --> 01:35:42,760 Speaker 1: I think you've got to welcome those people back into 1520 01:35:42,760 --> 01:35:45,000 Speaker 1: the tent because there's just too many things that we're 1521 01:35:45,000 --> 01:35:47,320 Speaker 1: not forgiving each other for right now, and the list 1522 01:35:47,360 --> 01:35:51,200 Speaker 1: is getting too long of things that we're saying are 1523 01:35:51,200 --> 01:35:55,280 Speaker 1: are irredeemable. And unless we start redeeming each other for 1524 01:35:55,400 --> 01:35:57,800 Speaker 1: some of the missteps that we believe that that that 1525 01:35:57,880 --> 01:36:00,800 Speaker 1: we're taking, we're just gonna stay fractured for a really 1526 01:36:00,800 --> 01:36:02,240 Speaker 1: long time. And I think that that's going to be 1527 01:36:02,280 --> 01:36:04,720 Speaker 1: a worse faith than than than COVID. You know, the 1528 01:36:04,760 --> 01:36:07,720 Speaker 1: idea that we're unforgiving of each other and we don't 1529 01:36:07,760 --> 01:36:11,200 Speaker 1: allow for people to grow and and and to change. Um. 1530 01:36:11,360 --> 01:36:13,519 Speaker 1: I think that you know that that's a fate that's 1531 01:36:14,200 --> 01:36:17,160 Speaker 1: um that's worse than what we're going through now. So 1532 01:36:17,320 --> 01:36:20,120 Speaker 1: my my hope is that people wise up, and if 1533 01:36:20,160 --> 01:36:22,080 Speaker 1: that's through the experience of getting it, I hope that 1534 01:36:22,120 --> 01:36:24,200 Speaker 1: they're able to turn around and share their experience with 1535 01:36:24,240 --> 01:36:26,640 Speaker 1: people and wake some some more people up so we 1536 01:36:26,640 --> 01:36:32,360 Speaker 1: can save some lives. Yep. UM lasting up the pack. 1537 01:36:32,439 --> 01:36:38,280 Speaker 1: Twelve released its basketball men's basketball schedule. Um, they put 1538 01:36:38,320 --> 01:36:44,479 Speaker 1: it out there. Are that's one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, 1539 01:36:44,640 --> 01:36:50,840 Speaker 1: eleven twelve games? They released twelve games role and it 1540 01:36:50,880 --> 01:36:58,680 Speaker 1: looks like everybody is playing two games, which puzzles me because, like, 1541 01:36:58,720 --> 01:37:01,760 Speaker 1: I get that this is all and it starts. These 1542 01:37:01,760 --> 01:37:07,200 Speaker 1: are games from December two to December, so every team 1543 01:37:07,240 --> 01:37:12,200 Speaker 1: has two games up until then. And with the cope, 1544 01:37:12,240 --> 01:37:14,960 Speaker 1: recent COVID spikes all of this stuff, do you believe 1545 01:37:15,040 --> 01:37:21,280 Speaker 1: that these games will take place? I do? UM, I do? 1546 01:37:22,160 --> 01:37:25,599 Speaker 1: Starting on you know what does that really December thirtieth 1547 01:37:25,600 --> 01:37:31,600 Speaker 1: start date? No? No December two? Oh December two for 1548 01:37:31,640 --> 01:37:34,960 Speaker 1: the out of conference stuff. No for the in conference. 1549 01:37:35,000 --> 01:37:37,680 Speaker 1: So there are two games, So like Colorado Arizona Star 1550 01:37:37,800 --> 01:37:40,679 Speaker 1: must be looking at the wrong thing. Then oh, I see, 1551 01:37:40,680 --> 01:37:43,040 Speaker 1: I see, I see, I see what you're saying. So 1552 01:37:43,160 --> 01:37:47,360 Speaker 1: December two through December uh, and then the games beyond 1553 01:37:47,439 --> 01:37:52,320 Speaker 1: that are Yeah? I do. I I have. I am 1554 01:37:52,360 --> 01:37:56,000 Speaker 1: positive that we will see a college basketball season. Will 1555 01:37:56,040 --> 01:37:59,800 Speaker 1: it go according to plan? Um? Maybe not, but I 1556 01:37:59,840 --> 01:38:02,280 Speaker 1: don't think they're going to delay the season. I think 1557 01:38:02,280 --> 01:38:04,559 Speaker 1: that this gives them more than enough time to figure 1558 01:38:04,560 --> 01:38:11,280 Speaker 1: out what they're going to be doing. Um yeah, I 1559 01:38:12,000 --> 01:38:13,880 Speaker 1: have faith that we will see a college basketball season. 1560 01:38:13,920 --> 01:38:16,280 Speaker 1: I hope we will supposed to be a really good one. 1561 01:38:16,320 --> 01:38:18,519 Speaker 1: We've got a lot of great players that we're gonna 1562 01:38:18,600 --> 01:38:22,240 Speaker 1: go to the draft and decided to come back. And um, 1563 01:38:22,280 --> 01:38:23,560 Speaker 1: you know, U c l A supposed to be on 1564 01:38:23,560 --> 01:38:26,000 Speaker 1: the rise. A SU is supposed to be up there. 1565 01:38:26,160 --> 01:38:29,040 Speaker 1: University of Arizona changed up their recruiting, so they've got 1566 01:38:29,840 --> 01:38:32,840 Speaker 1: um an entire team of like some of the best 1567 01:38:32,840 --> 01:38:35,400 Speaker 1: players from outside the United States that are all going 1568 01:38:35,439 --> 01:38:38,720 Speaker 1: to be trying to gel together. Um, you know, SC 1569 01:38:39,000 --> 01:38:42,639 Speaker 1: was improving a little bit. Oregon is always good. Um 1570 01:38:42,920 --> 01:38:46,080 Speaker 1: I really really, you know, perhaps even more than the 1571 01:38:46,400 --> 01:38:48,639 Speaker 1: football season. I really want to see this basketball season 1572 01:38:48,720 --> 01:38:55,479 Speaker 1: play out. So, um, I'm being optimistic. Yeah yeah, I'm 1573 01:38:56,240 --> 01:38:59,439 Speaker 1: going to continue to be optimistic too. I think that 1574 01:38:59,439 --> 01:39:03,000 Speaker 1: that's import you know, so will will We'll see if 1575 01:39:03,000 --> 01:39:05,799 Speaker 1: it happens. I just think the fact that each team 1576 01:39:05,800 --> 01:39:08,880 Speaker 1: only has two games in an entire month's kind of weird. 1577 01:39:09,439 --> 01:39:12,240 Speaker 1: I just don't know how that how that works, like 1578 01:39:12,320 --> 01:39:14,839 Speaker 1: how that works for it like a continuity of the season. 1579 01:39:14,880 --> 01:39:20,840 Speaker 1: And um, yeah, so obviously.
