WEBVTT - 12/08/21 DPS Hour 2 Kenny Pickett 0:00:00.680 --> 0:00:03.480 You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 0:00:03.560 --> 0:00:10.119 Sports Radio. Oh, we have found the Heisman trophy. We 0:00:10.200 --> 0:00:13.920 didn't find the key, but the Heisman trophy was in 0:00:13.960 --> 0:00:16.680 the case that we sent to the College Football Hall 0:00:16.720 --> 0:00:20.159 of Fame. Welcome in. I know you probably had a 0:00:20.200 --> 0:00:24.239 few restless nights wondering about that. Carson Palmer certainly did. 0:00:24.640 --> 0:00:26.800 But PAULI and the I team has been on it 0:00:26.920 --> 0:00:29.720 all night long, all morning long, and we did hear 0:00:29.760 --> 0:00:33.040 from the College Football Hall of Fame they opened the case, 0:00:33.680 --> 0:00:37.440 the heisman was in it. Still no luck finding the key. 0:00:37.960 --> 0:00:40.000 I don't know what happens if they send it back 0:00:40.040 --> 0:00:42.760 to Carson Palmer now probably have to go out and 0:00:42.800 --> 0:00:46.720 get a new case. But you know, my hands are 0:00:46.760 --> 0:00:50.040 free from this there. I'm done with this. That we 0:00:50.159 --> 0:00:53.000 move on until we get our next heisman in here. 0:00:53.360 --> 0:00:56.080 That we learned a valuable lesson, didn't we, Todd, We 0:00:56.240 --> 0:00:59.360 sure did. There's many things that could have been done differently, yes, 0:01:00.240 --> 0:01:05.200 like what like sending the key separately, not delegating it 0:01:05.200 --> 0:01:07.680 to anybody in the back. That's at least two that 0:01:07.760 --> 0:01:10.280 come to mind. And you know, we probably ruined a 0:01:10.319 --> 0:01:13.880 friendship between Dylan and Mario it's gonna take a long 0:01:13.920 --> 0:01:16.559 time for them to get to Yes, Mario, who doesn't 0:01:16.560 --> 0:01:19.440 have any friends here, had one in Dylan, and now 0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:22.360 he's reached out to Tyler and they were enemies. And 0:01:22.440 --> 0:01:24.720 I saw those two talking this morning and I was 0:01:24.760 --> 0:01:26.560 shocked they were in the same room and they were 0:01:26.560 --> 0:01:30.120 actually speaking to one another. That's what's happened. That's collateral 0:01:30.200 --> 0:01:33.520 damage here, Todd, That's what happens. It's ugly. Is it 0:01:33.640 --> 0:01:35.360 not getting better anytime soon? In the holidays are a 0:01:35.400 --> 0:01:38.479 couple of weeks away, Come on in and Staale while 0:01:38.600 --> 0:01:41.440 he is a finalist for the Heisman, he's Kenny Pickett, 0:01:41.720 --> 0:01:45.120 the pit quarterback. He'll join us coming up. I got 0:01:45.200 --> 0:01:47.280 to ask him about this fake slide, how long he 0:01:47.319 --> 0:01:49.680 had been planning that? And is he going to play 0:01:49.720 --> 0:01:52.320 in the Peach Bowl. He'll join us coming up eight 0:01:52.400 --> 0:01:55.000 seven seven three D P show email address DPA, Dan 0:01:55.040 --> 0:01:57.920 Patrick dot com, Twitter handle a TP show. Are they 0:01:58.040 --> 0:02:02.680 going to implement the picket rule? Is college football going 0:02:02.720 --> 0:02:06.280 to have a picket rule where you can't, like, if 0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:09.480 you act like you're giving yourself up, you're giving yourself up. 0:02:10.639 --> 0:02:12.280 I don't know if they can make a rule, but 0:02:12.760 --> 0:02:14.960 it might be the Kenny Picket rule. He'll join us 0:02:14.960 --> 0:02:17.320 coming up mclove and pull question from the first hour. 0:02:17.600 --> 0:02:19.760 Would you rather be the greatest three point shooter, the 0:02:19.760 --> 0:02:23.520 best dunker eight three point shooter? Okay, if I said, 0:02:23.520 --> 0:02:26.200 you could be Doctor J or you could be Steph Curry, 0:02:27.200 --> 0:02:31.280 everything that goes with that. Let me take away money 0:02:31.520 --> 0:02:35.360 because obviously step has and will earn more than Doctor J. 0:02:36.160 --> 0:02:41.079 But if I look at impact on the game, on 0:02:41.120 --> 0:02:45.880 and off the court, style, legendary status, I can't help 0:02:45.919 --> 0:02:49.680 but think when Doc showed up at the Rutgers League 0:02:50.200 --> 0:02:54.480 in Harlem, and you had people up on buildings. They 0:02:54.520 --> 0:02:59.280 wanted a glimpse of Doctor J. And he didn't disappoint 0:02:59.639 --> 0:03:02.079 They came out to see Doc. They were up in trees, 0:03:02.120 --> 0:03:05.480 they were on top of buildings, they're on top of fences. 0:03:05.520 --> 0:03:08.280 They wanted to get a glimpse of Doctor J. Steph 0:03:08.360 --> 0:03:11.200 Curry's going to be labeled the greatest shooter of all time. 0:03:11.840 --> 0:03:15.480 He's sixteen made three pointers away from being the most 0:03:15.560 --> 0:03:21.560 decorated three point shooter in NBA history, passing Rayal. I 0:03:21.600 --> 0:03:23.840 guess I would probably want to be Doctor J. The 0:03:23.880 --> 0:03:26.760 more I think about him, because there is something about 0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:31.640 him when you're in his presence there, it's just different. 0:03:33.560 --> 0:03:37.160 And you know, when you think about what he did 0:03:37.200 --> 0:03:40.320 in the NBA, we missed that because it wasn't televised 0:03:40.920 --> 0:03:44.400 and it was more of oh my god. You know, 0:03:44.440 --> 0:03:46.880 you'd read an article and sometimes it was even more 0:03:46.920 --> 0:03:49.960 powerful when you were reading what this guy did. And 0:03:50.000 --> 0:03:51.920 as I mentioned last hour, I saw him play one 0:03:51.920 --> 0:03:55.880 time in person in the ABA and it was just 0:03:56.600 --> 0:03:59.520 I love the ABA, Red white and blue ball. A 0:03:59.560 --> 0:04:01.960 lot of the players who were in there. You did 0:04:02.000 --> 0:04:05.320 have some really good teams. The style was fun. The 0:04:05.400 --> 0:04:09.600 style was the NBA. Uh, well what the NBA is now? 0:04:09.760 --> 0:04:13.120 I mean the ABA invented that. You know, a lot 0:04:13.120 --> 0:04:18.760 of scoring, shooting threes. And Doctor J was Yeah, he 0:04:18.880 --> 0:04:23.440 was front and center. He was spectacular. Yes, mclend I 0:04:23.480 --> 0:04:27.880 saw a replay of the Blazer Sixers finals from seventy seven, 0:04:27.920 --> 0:04:30.760 I believe, and I knew Doctor J from the eighties. 0:04:30.920 --> 0:04:33.760 He was a different player. He was much more physically 0:04:34.240 --> 0:04:36.280 like I think I might have seen it diminished Doctor J. 0:04:36.480 --> 0:04:39.320 Is that possible? Yes, you did what he did in 0:04:39.360 --> 0:04:43.280 that series against Portland. They won the first game and 0:04:43.320 --> 0:04:45.839 then they lost the next four and that was Bill 0:04:45.880 --> 0:04:50.159 Walton's Portland Trailblazers. But Doctor J that that Philadelphia team 0:04:50.240 --> 0:04:54.000 had as much talent as any team that never won 0:04:54.040 --> 0:04:57.120 an NBA title. You know, you had Darryl Dawkins, you 0:04:57.160 --> 0:04:59.799 had George McGinnis, you had Doug Collins, you had World 0:04:59.839 --> 0:05:04.000 b Free. Yeah, Doc m that was a really, really 0:05:04.040 --> 0:05:06.800 talented team. And Doc's the one who dominated. I mean, 0:05:06.880 --> 0:05:09.240 Doc could have been the MVP of the NBA Finals 0:05:09.279 --> 0:05:11.919 and they lost. He was that great. But he was 0:05:12.000 --> 0:05:16.200 clearly the best player on the floor. Yeah, anybody interested 0:05:16.240 --> 0:05:22.760 in playing the step Curry career salary game. Sure sounds 0:05:22.760 --> 0:05:26.560 like we're already firing up the band. They're always ready, 0:05:26.640 --> 0:05:30.240 those guys. Okay, Sharpe, how much is Steph Curry made 0:05:30.320 --> 0:05:34.320 up until this season started in his career? About twelve 0:05:34.400 --> 0:05:37.400 years eleven twelve years? How much has he made up 0:05:37.400 --> 0:05:40.680 to this point? High end and low end with his salaries? 0:05:41.200 --> 0:05:44.120 The past two seasons he made forty and forty three million. 0:05:44.360 --> 0:05:47.400 Okay for that, he never got the big big bucks. 0:05:47.440 --> 0:05:54.560 He got nice bucks. Right, I'm gonna go one seventy nine, 0:05:55.480 --> 0:05:57.880 two hundred and twelve million dollars up until the start 0:05:57.880 --> 0:06:00.640 of the season. Okay, here's the kicker. How much does 0:06:00.680 --> 0:06:04.200 Steph Curry do over the next five seasons total? He 0:06:04.279 --> 0:06:06.880 has a five more years leftis contract, including this year. 0:06:07.800 --> 0:06:11.760 What is he going to make? What's his total going 0:06:11.800 --> 0:06:13.880 to be for the next five years. Yes, he's already 0:06:13.880 --> 0:06:16.480 got two hundred and twelve in the bank. I'm gonna 0:06:16.480 --> 0:06:21.560 guess that he's going to have two hundred and thirty 0:06:21.800 --> 0:06:24.440 more in the bank. Two hundred and sixty five million 0:06:24.520 --> 0:06:28.080 on the way, forty five, forty eight, fifty one, fifty 0:06:28.080 --> 0:06:32.400 five and fifty nine six. He's not going anywhere. He's 0:06:32.440 --> 0:06:35.000 losing half of that in taxas, of course, and he's 0:06:35.000 --> 0:06:38.520 in San Francisco. Those whole house prices are California Hi 0:06:38.640 --> 0:06:40.440 real estate. It's not as much money as you think. 0:06:40.440 --> 0:06:44.560 I'm just saying. Didn't Phil Mickelson famously say that when 0:06:44.560 --> 0:06:47.400 somebody said, oh god, you made forty one million dollars, 0:06:47.400 --> 0:06:51.560 he goes, yeah, but half in taxes, Like, Hey, I'm 0:06:51.600 --> 0:06:53.960 thinking of retiring because I don't want to pay twenty 0:06:53.960 --> 0:06:55.920 million dollars in taxes. I mean, it's just not worth 0:06:55.920 --> 0:06:59.800 it anywhere. Only twenty million dollars. You know that, You 0:07:00.120 --> 0:07:02.680 then you don't get the other twenty million dollars that 0:07:02.760 --> 0:07:06.240 comes with that, that is after taxes there, what are 0:07:06.279 --> 0:07:07.760 we going to stay Are we gonna stay with that 0:07:07.839 --> 0:07:10.160 in the end? So actually we had to see the results, 0:07:10.160 --> 0:07:13.640 so we just put up doctor j versus Curry. I 0:07:13.720 --> 0:07:16.080 have a question for all of us. If you were 0:07:16.120 --> 0:07:20.680 Kenny Pickett, would you play in the Peach Bowl? I 0:07:20.720 --> 0:07:24.000 would need advice. I would need somebody to tell me 0:07:24.640 --> 0:07:28.280 why I'm gonna play. I know it sounds good. Hey, 0:07:28.720 --> 0:07:31.920 we'll take out insurance, showcase yourself. Maybe you can be 0:07:31.960 --> 0:07:35.920 the number one overall pick. But I don't know. I 0:07:35.960 --> 0:07:38.560 don't know what's at stake if he does play well 0:07:38.640 --> 0:07:41.480 or he doesn't play well. But you're starting to get 0:07:41.520 --> 0:07:44.600 that feeling that he might be the number one quarterback taken. 0:07:44.760 --> 0:07:46.360 I don't know if that means he's the number one 0:07:46.360 --> 0:07:49.400 player taken. Yeah, Paul Canny help himself in the draft 0:07:49.440 --> 0:07:52.320 of any way by being a gamer, by playing in 0:07:52.360 --> 0:07:54.679 the game and playing well. Or is his draft status 0:07:54.760 --> 0:07:57.880 is draft status? I don't know. I don't know what 0:07:57.880 --> 0:08:01.720 they factor in. You know, somebody could say, hey, we 0:08:01.760 --> 0:08:03.400 want a guy who is not going to walk out 0:08:03.440 --> 0:08:05.680 on his team or guy's gonna want to play in 0:08:05.720 --> 0:08:08.480 these games, Like, there's gonna be games that are meaningless 0:08:08.520 --> 0:08:10.880 games and in the NFL, and you're gonna have to 0:08:10.960 --> 0:08:13.640 play in those games too. Yeah. See, he's already showing 0:08:13.680 --> 0:08:17.240 more dedication to the NFL team. That takes him putting 0:08:17.280 --> 0:08:21.920 prioritizing them ahead of yeah, meaningless game. Yeah, mcm I 0:08:21.920 --> 0:08:24.000 mean the NFL is shown, don't They don't care. He's 0:08:24.440 --> 0:08:26.720 you know, Jamar Chase this year, Michael Parsons this year, 0:08:27.040 --> 0:08:29.880 Nick Bosev went two. I think, yeah, I agree, Yeah, 0:08:29.920 --> 0:08:32.160 and then you had Christian McCaffrey, and you had Leonard 0:08:32.160 --> 0:08:34.800 Fournette sitting up Bowl games. MC. You heard when Paul said, though, 0:08:34.920 --> 0:08:41.040 but Kenny help himself. Kenny Ken He Kenny number one? 0:08:41.160 --> 0:08:46.000 Pick it. You can't see what I'm doing. Yeah, yeah, 0:08:46.280 --> 0:08:50.680 let's let's get the T shirt. Yes, mcleomid. What Michigan 0:08:50.760 --> 0:08:53.520 State is that? That seems like a tough opponent to 0:08:53.600 --> 0:08:56.320 showcase your skills agains. I don't know. I know Ohio 0:08:56.400 --> 0:08:58.760 State rolled them, but I feel like there's two much downside. 0:08:58.760 --> 0:09:02.760 I would not go. Yesterday, LSU starting quarterback Max Johnson 0:09:03.200 --> 0:09:05.760 entered the transfer portal. He's the son of former NFL 0:09:05.880 --> 0:09:09.560 quarterback Brad Johnson and the latest name to now enter 0:09:09.760 --> 0:09:13.720 a crucial resource for college teams, and many like Johnson, 0:09:13.760 --> 0:09:15.920 are switching teams because of a new coach coming in. 0:09:16.200 --> 0:09:20.160 Others lost their jobs. Spencer Rattler lost his job at Oklahoma. 0:09:21.200 --> 0:09:26.160 You got recent Heisman winners, number one overall picks Joe Burrow, Kyler, 0:09:26.240 --> 0:09:29.400 Murray Baker, Mayfield all transferred. The days of loyalty to 0:09:29.480 --> 0:09:32.800 a coach and vice versa are long gone, in part 0:09:32.880 --> 0:09:36.360 because the coaches themselves don't have that much loyalty. Actually 0:09:36.440 --> 0:09:39.880 creates more efficient quarterback market. Now talented qbs and other 0:09:39.920 --> 0:09:43.240 players don't have to sit out and if it's good 0:09:43.360 --> 0:09:46.280 enough for the college athlete, I'm not sure there's anything 0:09:46.320 --> 0:09:49.200 else that's more important here. And I don't know why 0:09:49.520 --> 0:09:54.640 Brad Johnson's son, Maximus Johnson, Yes, that's his name. There's 0:09:54.640 --> 0:09:56.800 no reason given that he's decided that he's going to 0:09:56.920 --> 0:10:00.280 leave LSU through twenty seven touchdowns as a saw more 0:10:00.679 --> 0:10:04.080 and his brother, who is a five star tight end 0:10:04.600 --> 0:10:10.199 coming to LSU. He's not coming to LSU now. I 0:10:10.320 --> 0:10:13.920 don't know what happened here that if he wasn't promised 0:10:13.960 --> 0:10:17.360 the job. If Brian Kelly's bringing in a quarterback in 0:10:17.440 --> 0:10:20.160 the transfer portal where he's got somebody already there, I'm 0:10:20.200 --> 0:10:23.640 not sure, but you lose your starting quarterback and then 0:10:23.679 --> 0:10:26.840 you lose his brother, who was a five star recruit 0:10:27.040 --> 0:10:30.319 as a tight end. Not a good week for Brian Kelly. 0:10:31.520 --> 0:10:34.480 A couple of phone calls in here eight seven seven 0:10:34.520 --> 0:10:37.240 three d P Show email addressed at Dan Patrick dot 0:10:37.280 --> 0:10:39.920 com Twitter handle IDP Show. Say good morning to peaconk 0:10:40.000 --> 0:10:43.440 or streaming partner and radio affiliates, including the Funk Sports 0:10:43.559 --> 0:10:47.120 radio line up. Dino in New York leads us off 0:10:47.160 --> 0:10:50.120 this hour. Hi Dino, what's on your mind? Hi? Young 0:10:50.200 --> 0:10:55.959 guys five nine two o seven. Want to first wish 0:10:56.080 --> 0:11:00.160 mclovin good luck on his new venture. We always have 0:11:00.440 --> 0:11:05.360 the broken glasses, one of the greatest moments in show history. 0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:08.719 The look on his face was priceless. Yep. And we 0:11:09.200 --> 0:11:11.959 have a new new T shirt. It's called mcleven and 0:11:12.320 --> 0:11:15.920 it's uh it's a tribute to mclovin, as it's on 0:11:16.080 --> 0:11:17.800 Dan Patrick dot com. All right, what else do you know? 0:11:19.280 --> 0:11:23.000 Pauli's question today is walk off worthy. It's you know nothing, 0:11:23.120 --> 0:11:27.000 taking nothing away from Steph Curry's fantastic. But Doctor J 0:11:27.360 --> 0:11:29.840 is just, you know, unbelievable, and I think I got 0:11:29.920 --> 0:11:32.760 two things that, you know, push it in Doc's favor. 0:11:32.920 --> 0:11:36.319 Number one, he's got the greatest in game dunk ever 0:11:36.600 --> 0:11:39.840 when he rocked the cradle in an NBA Finals clinching game. 0:11:40.559 --> 0:11:43.200 That's tough to beat in my opinion.

Then mclovin came on board twelve 0:13:09.400 --> 0:13:13.480 years ago, and so I'm I'm not I'm not gonna 0:13:14.200 --> 0:13:16.400 look at replacing him.

You didn't 0:16:15.160 --> 0:16:19.080 round up. Okay, you're you're telling the truth. I like that. 0:16:19.160 --> 0:16:22.200 And it's so some good, good qualities are coming.

How would 0:16:36.200 --> 0:16:40.520 I market myself for the NFL? Yeah? Um, I mean 0:16:40.520 --> 0:16:43.080 I would just say, uh, I mean the tape. The 0:16:43.120 --> 0:16:46.480 tape is your best tool in football. So you know, 0:16:46.640 --> 0:16:48.400 no matter what I say or anybody else says, if 0:16:48.760 --> 0:16:50.240 you know, you just roll the tape, you find all 0:16:50.240 --> 0:16:53.560 the answers there. When did you realize that you could 0:16:53.600 --> 0:16:55.200 play at a high level, that you could be an 0:16:55.320 --> 0:16:59.520 NFL quarterback? I believe this since I was young, and 0:17:00.040 --> 0:17:04.520 I always just worked so hard towards it, and you know, 0:17:04.600 --> 0:17:06.879 I just I don't know, I just through all the 0:17:06.960 --> 0:17:09.119 ups and downs, I always kept that belief. I think 0:17:09.160 --> 0:17:10.439 that's kind of what kept me going in the right 0:17:10.480 --> 0:17:14.040 direction and staying staying focused and always working hard and 0:17:14.040 --> 0:17:15.640 getting better every day than it kind of just came 0:17:15.640 --> 0:17:19.320 into the fruition forman you grew up in Jersey favorite 0:17:19.400 --> 0:17:24.240 quarterback growing up, Donovan McNabb. I was a big Eagles fan. 0:17:24.359 --> 0:17:28.440 Oh did you meet him? I met him once that 0:17:28.760 --> 0:17:30.640 kind of like a fan fair. I got some pictures. 0:17:31.359 --> 0:17:33.600 I was like six or seven years old, So it 0:17:33.760 --> 0:17:36.720 was bad. It was back in the day. Do you 0:17:36.840 --> 0:17:41.119 remember what it was like? That feeling I do? I did? 0:17:41.160 --> 0:17:42.640 It was one of I mean, I was a huge 0:17:42.920 --> 0:17:44.199 I used to go to the games and my dad 0:17:44.240 --> 0:17:45.600 all the time. We would dread to an hour and 0:17:45.640 --> 0:17:47.320 a half drive from my house and we grew up 0:17:47.359 --> 0:17:51.920 big Eagles fans. That one famous game against Green Bay 0:17:52.000 --> 0:17:54.760 and Brett Farve and uh, I was at that game 0:17:54.840 --> 0:17:56.760 back and I think like two thousand and five maybe, 0:17:57.840 --> 0:18:01.600 so yeah, it's way back. Eagles got three first round 0:18:01.640 --> 0:18:07.240 picks there, Kenny, they do they do. We'll see what happens. Okay, 0:18:08.240 --> 0:18:12.000 would you want to follow Dan Marino's footsteps? And I 0:18:12.119 --> 0:18:14.560 know you went to pitt but Marino of course played 0:18:14.600 --> 0:18:17.960 for the Dolphins. Steelers famously passed on him. So you 0:18:18.040 --> 0:18:21.360 could play Pittsburgh or you could play for the Eagles. 0:18:21.680 --> 0:18:25.240 If I gave you those two choices, what would you take? Oh, 0:18:25.520 --> 0:18:28.200 those are great choices. I would take whoever has the 0:18:28.280 --> 0:18:33.000 higher pick, whoever first option. Okay, all right, I'll take it. 0:18:33.119 --> 0:18:35.920 I'll take anywhere. Um. You know, just the dream of 0:18:35.960 --> 0:18:38.600 playing in the NFL is you know, you know, since 0:18:38.640 --> 0:18:40.280 I was a kid, since I picked up a football. 0:18:40.359 --> 0:18:44.919 So I would love anywhere. As far as the picket 0:18:45.119 --> 0:18:48.680 slide where you didn't give yourself up and you kept running. 0:18:49.320 --> 0:18:52.440 How long had you thought about that move against wake fours. 0:18:54.000 --> 0:18:57.399 I never thought about doing it ever. Um, it was 0:18:57.440 --> 0:19:01.080 just kind of an instinct thing I couldn't I got 0:19:01.160 --> 0:19:03.040 to the sideline. All the quarterbacks were asking, like, what 0:19:03.359 --> 0:19:05.280 was I thinking? How did I what was I planning 0:19:05.320 --> 0:19:07.879 on doing? I had no idea. I just kind of 0:19:08.119 --> 0:19:09.920 I blinked, and the next thing I knew, I ended 0:19:10.040 --> 0:19:12.040 up in the end zone. So I just kind of 0:19:12.359 --> 0:19:14.320 felt as a player just kind of feel things. I 0:19:14.440 --> 0:19:16.720 felt them pull up before I even was gonna start 0:19:16.760 --> 0:19:18.760 to slide. I think that's the only way I could 0:19:18.800 --> 0:19:20.880 have had that idea to do that in that moment, 0:19:20.920 --> 0:19:23.440 and how fast I was going, Um, but you know 0:19:23.640 --> 0:19:25.560 we're worked out for us. Do you think they're going 0:19:25.600 --> 0:19:30.080 to change the rule? Oh, I'm sure. I mean people 0:19:30.119 --> 0:19:33.480 are saying I cheated. I think that's a little, you know, ridiculous. 0:19:33.520 --> 0:19:36.360 There's no rule for it. Um. You know there's there's 0:19:36.400 --> 0:19:38.399 guys that fake running out of bounds and and all 0:19:38.480 --> 0:19:40.240 that stuff, and you know I've ever done that. This 0:19:40.520 --> 0:19:42.600 was just kind of like a I couldn't even tell 0:19:42.600 --> 0:19:43.879 you what I was thinking. I just went out there 0:19:43.880 --> 0:19:47.680 and did it. But I guarantee, with how much publicity 0:19:47.720 --> 0:19:50.080 it's getting, I'm sure there will be a rule next year. Well, 0:19:50.119 --> 0:19:54.760 how surprised are you at that publicity? I was pretty surprised. 0:19:54.800 --> 0:19:56.560 I thought in the game, I was just like, Oh, 0:19:56.600 --> 0:19:58.639 I made I made a play. I didn't think it 0:19:58.760 --> 0:20:02.520 was gonna be a big deal. Um until obviously after 0:20:02.600 --> 0:20:05.560 the game, and days after the game it was still 0:20:05.600 --> 0:20:09.200 being talked about. Um. So yeah, I mean it is 0:20:09.240 --> 0:20:12.320 what it is. I mean we won by twenty something points. 0:20:12.400 --> 0:20:14.280 I don't think that was a deciding factor in the game, 0:20:14.359 --> 0:20:16.560 but definitely a big player to start the game. I 0:20:16.640 --> 0:20:19.960 think you can only do it once though, Kenny, Yeah, no, 0:20:20.119 --> 0:20:22.080 I couldn't do it again, if I tried prob I could. 0:20:22.119 --> 0:20:24.840 You know, I've never practiced it. I've never I don't 0:20:24.840 --> 0:20:26.080 know how I did. I don't even know how I 0:20:26.240 --> 0:20:27.800 came up with it on the fly. I just did 0:20:27.840 --> 0:20:31.200 it just being a player. So, yeah, are you playing 0:20:31.240 --> 0:20:35.120 in the Peach Bowl? Well, with you know, recent news 0:20:35.200 --> 0:20:38.439 and out of you know, our team with Coach Whipple 0:20:38.480 --> 0:20:41.160 and everybody, you know something. I actually just got home 0:20:41.240 --> 0:20:42.720 yesterday and I didn't get a chance to talk about 0:20:42.720 --> 0:20:45.240 it with my parents, just kind of enjoying the season 0:20:45.320 --> 0:20:47.720 and get a chance to see some family who I 0:20:47.760 --> 0:20:50.639 haven't been around and in a long time. So but 0:20:50.720 --> 0:20:52.760 definitely I'll be talking about that with my family here soon. 0:20:53.000 --> 0:20:56.199 So you're undecided, i'd say on the side of right now, Yes, 0:20:56.560 --> 0:21:02.920 what happened with coach Whipple stepping down your offensive coordinator? Yeah, 0:21:02.960 --> 0:21:05.560 I mean that's that's personal with his decision and the 0:21:05.640 --> 0:21:07.960 information he gave me, so I'll keep that tight. But 0:21:09.880 --> 0:21:12.520 it happens. Things happen, and um, you know, he has 0:21:12.600 --> 0:21:15.199 his reasons, and UM you know, I can't thank him 0:21:15.280 --> 0:21:17.560 enough for all the things that we were able to 0:21:17.560 --> 0:21:20.480 accomplish together in three years and seeing how much we 0:21:20.600 --> 0:21:22.080 grew in the first you know, looking at the first 0:21:22.119 --> 0:21:24.640 two years to last year, just a lot of hard 0:21:24.680 --> 0:21:28.040 work and U you know, very grateful for coach Whip. Yeah. 0:21:28.119 --> 0:21:30.320 And you know, do I go back six years ago 0:21:30.359 --> 0:21:32.560 with Christian McCaffrey. He sat out a bowl game and 0:21:32.640 --> 0:21:35.480 everybody was up in arms, and then Leonard Fournette sat out, 0:21:35.720 --> 0:21:39.840 didn't play in a bowl game. Cavon Thibodeau at Oregon's 0:21:40.160 --> 0:21:43.240 probably not going to play in a bowl game. We 0:21:43.359 --> 0:21:46.520 haven't seen quarterbacks. I don't think, do it. But I understand, 0:21:47.240 --> 0:21:49.399 like what is the risk and the reward for you 0:21:49.560 --> 0:21:51.560 playing in the Peach Bowl? Like what do you think 0:21:51.600 --> 0:21:55.760 you could gain by playing in the Peach Bowl? Right? 0:21:55.800 --> 0:21:57.320 I mean, I'm gonna be honest and something I haven't 0:21:57.440 --> 0:21:59.760 you know, sat down and discussed with my family. It's 0:21:59.760 --> 0:22:02.640 been a kind of a crazy past couple of days. Um, 0:22:02.800 --> 0:22:05.560 you know, getting the Johnny United news and the Heisman 0:22:05.640 --> 0:22:08.159 news and it's just been kind of a whirldwin of 0:22:08.280 --> 0:22:10.840
