1
00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:06,880
Speaker 1: Welcome to the solid verbal hell that for me, I'm

2
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:09,680
Speaker 1: a man, I'm forty. I've heard so many players say, well,

3
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:10,639
Speaker 1: I want to be happy.

4
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:13,000
Speaker 2: You want to be happy for a day at the State?

5
00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:19,239
Speaker 1: Is that? Woo? Woof? And them and tie Welcome back

6
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:21,560
Speaker 1: to the salar verbal boys and girls. My name's Ty

7
00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 1: Hildebrands as always that final gentleman over They're the one,

8
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:29,360
Speaker 1: the only, still the incomparable after all these years, Dan Rubinstein, Sir,

9
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 1: how goes it in Chicago? Still do one? A?

10
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 2: I don't want to get in trouble by the people

11
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:41,360
Speaker 2: that get, you know, copyright music stuff in trouble. I'm good, Ty.

12
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 2: I love signing day, signing days, signing day year. I

13
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:48,520
Speaker 2: love recruiting because it's insane. It's the thing that sets

14
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,760
Speaker 2: college football. And I suppose college basketball apart from the

15
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,960
Speaker 2: rest of the insane world of sports. And if you

16
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:58,960
Speaker 2: wanted to introduce somebody to college football, there are three

17
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 2: things that make apps no sense in terms of what

18
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:04,759
Speaker 2: people have as a reference point for major sports, and

19
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:07,120
Speaker 2: recruiting is at the top of that list. Now that

20
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 2: the postseason is beginning to resemble what other postseasons look

21
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 2: like in baseball, and football or NFL football. The recruiting

22
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 2: stuff is so like if you wanted to genuinely get

23
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 2: somebody from Belgium, from Chile into college football, and you

24
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 2: would have to say, are you sure? Are you sure?

25
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 2: Are you sure? The first thing you do is you

26
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 2: take them to a tailgate in a game and you

27
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:28,959
Speaker 2: let them soak in the culture. The second thing you

28
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,119
Speaker 2: do is you sit down and you try to explain

29
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 2: the nonsense, beautiful nonsense that is recruiting. We are here

30
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:41,680
Speaker 2: today to make sense of a bunch of major classes

31
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 2: and trends within the sport and early impact guys. But

32
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 2: I treasure that it's what sets us apart from the

33
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 2: other animals.

34
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 1: Ty, I think that's a great way of looking at it.

35
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 1: We appreciate one and all stop it on by It

36
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 1: is college football, quote unquote. Off season doesn't mean there's

37
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: not news, doesn't mean there's not goings on, doesn't mean

38
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 1: that there isn't a second. We got two of them

39
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 1: signing there, Yeah, two signing days. Now. Once was not enough,

40
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,360
Speaker 1: hasn't been enough for a couple of years. Now, now

41
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 1: we got two of them. There were a lot of

42
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 1: names that were already kind of set in stone going

43
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 1: into today. But we've got a little bit more clarity

44
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 1: as a result of some of the names that have

45
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,920
Speaker 1: moved about, have flipped, have not flipped? What have you

46
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:28,799
Speaker 1: going to go through that in a little bit more

47
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 1: detail here over the next forty five minutes to an

74
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 1: know if there's any specific news you want to get into.

75
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 1: I mean, look, the news kind of happened today with

76
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 1: a couple of relatively high profile commitments. Jade Reshada to

77
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 1: Arizona State, his I think third commitment. I don't know

78
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 1: if the paperwork is in, but obviously a complicated recruitment

79
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 1: in that it appears he got mixed up, maybe through

80
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:17,040
Speaker 1: his own doing, maybe through others doing in some anil drama.

81
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 1: But hopefully this marks the beginning of a football narrative.

82
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 1: Jane Rashoda at Asu, I'm surprised you would pick Asu

83
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 1: that he's got to compete with Drew Pine, so it's

84
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:32,720
Speaker 1: probably not a I'm just kidding, appears to be the

85
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:34,159
Speaker 1: number one there in Oh.

86
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 2: I don't know if he's going to start this year.

87
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 2: I imagine Drew Pine will probably get the first look.

88
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,719
Speaker 2: Please really, Oh, come on, Okay, he's a legacy. Jane

89
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 2: Rashada is a legacy at Arizona State, and the expectations

90
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,360
Speaker 2: for him, the expectations for ASU are bottom of the

91
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 2: barrel right now because of the amount of roster turnover,

92
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 2: because of how many transfers are coming in, because of

93
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 2: the looming NCAA attention with Arizona State, which is a

94
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 2: nice to be, right if you are somebody who is

95
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 2: going to be saddled with expectations because of the spotlight

96
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 2: that comes with being a high profile quarterback with high

97
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:11,920
Speaker 2: profile commitments and decommitments, go somewhere where expectations are pretty

98
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 2: I agree.

99
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,480
Speaker 1: I would start Jade and Rashato over Drew Pine if

100
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 1: he turned around and threw lefty. That's how I feel

101
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,720
Speaker 1: about that circumstance. We can get more into it as

102
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,840
Speaker 1: a season draws near, and as we find out a

103
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,039
Speaker 1: little bit more about what Jade and Rashada looks like.

104
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 1: Against college competition, but coming from where I've been over

105
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 1: the last six to eight months or so, yeah, I'll

106
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: take I'll take what I don't know over what I

107
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:36,479
Speaker 1: think I do.

108
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 2: So this new non early signing period Signing day is

109
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,360
Speaker 2: pretty much drama free every year, just because so many

110
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 2: people are trying to enroll early and thus commit early

111
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 2: to get a jump on their college seasons. Nick Harbor,

112
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 2: five star athlete, I think the number one athlete in

113
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:57,279
Speaker 2: the country, chose South Carolina over Oregon. Trackstar and I

114
00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,480
Speaker 2: think he's gonna play offense. He was considered to be

115
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 2: a five star are because of his ability and potential

116
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 2: playing defense on the edge, but you know, speed to

117
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 2: burn obviously as a high level sprinter. So South Carolina

118
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 2: with an incredible, incredible recruiting coup today. He visited Oregon

119
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 2: last weekend, who they themselves can offer a lot in

120
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,599
Speaker 2: the world of track and field. I saw Michigan flipped

121
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 2: a Stanford commit Cameron Brandt, a defensive lineman, a longtime

122
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:27,160
Speaker 2: Stanford commitment who, obviously when David Shaw resigned, seemed to

123
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,040
Speaker 2: open things back up. Walker Lyons, a top flight tight

124
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 2: end who was actually delaying his enrollment a little bit

125
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 2: going on an LDS mission, A little bit of a

126
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:41,240
Speaker 2: surprise going to USC. There Roderick Pleasant a top flight corner.

127
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,039
Speaker 2: Also a track guy going to Oregon from southern California.

128
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,039
Speaker 2: That was an Oregon US sea battle. I presume there

129
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 2: will be a number of Oregon USC battles in the

130
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,600
Speaker 2: years to come when Dan Lanning and Lincoln Riley are

131
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:54,280
Speaker 2: at both of those respective schools. I saw Alabama pulled

132
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,280
Speaker 2: off Desmond Rix a mindship corner.

133
00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 1: Did you did you see Alabama's class.

134
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,239
Speaker 2: The number three only the number three class of all time,

135
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 2: only the number.

136
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 1: Three class of all time but one this cycle. It

137
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 1: was Alabama Georgia one two one. This cycle did set

138
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 1: a record though with respect to five stars. There were

139
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 1: nine five stars as part of this class. Kean Keehley

140
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 1: the edge rusher. They also had Quay Russaw. I probably

141
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 1: said his name incorrectly, yaj Jan Jay Pierre probably another

142
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 1: one I said in correctly. I apologize, Justice Hayes Haines, Yeah, yeah,

143
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 1: we had Caleb Downs, We have Caden Proctor, James Smith,

144
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 1: Justice Haynes, Jalen Hale, and as you mentioned, Desmond Rix.

145
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 1: That's all nine of them and that. Yeah. I mean, look,

146
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 1: talent at Alabama is never in short supply, but they

147
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 1: are clearly loading up here.

148
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, Caden Proctor was a long time Iowa commit from Iowa,

149
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 2: seemed to come down to Iowa, Oregon and Alabama at

150
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 2: the end there where he flipped his commitment to Alabama.

151
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 2: So you know it's rich get rich or this is

152
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 2: no surprise. Alabama has earned obviously the attention that you know,

153
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 2: recruits give to them and are able to sign with

154
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 2: Alabama in droves every year, the top flight kids. So

155
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 2: not a surprise there. I don't know if there are

156
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 2: any surprises in the top ten, top fifteen, top twenty.

157
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 2: It's an interesting time with recruiting just because you'll see

158
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 2: the average rating of a commit be pretty high. But

159
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 2: a school only take fifteen whereas another school takes twenty nine.

160
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 2: And there's this conversation about priorities, whether or not a

161
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 2: school is hitting the portal really hard like the LA

162
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,280
Speaker 2: schools or Michigan State. A number of schools are choosing

163
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 2: to go that route instead of you know, pushing a

164
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 2: lot of their eggs into the high school basket. So

165
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 2: did anybody else stand out to you as like, oh,

166
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 2: look at that they're there or wooh they're not there.

167
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean to be honest with you, Notre Dame

168
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,679
Speaker 1: at ten stands out to me, if only because they

169
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 1: were one for a good long time during this recruiting cycle,

170
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 1: the riding's be on the wall that they weren't in

171
00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 1: a finish one and that they could finish. They did,

172
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,960
Speaker 1: But Notre Dame at ten still really good class. Twenty

173
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 1: four stars. We'll talk more about Notre Dame's class here

174
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 1: and maybe some instant impact guys as we go through,

175
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 1: but Notre Dame at ten, I think is one that

176
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:15,880
Speaker 1: jumps out to me. I would also throw Oklahoma in there,

177
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 1: Oklahoma at Texas and Oklahoma at three and four Texas

178
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: for the very strong class we've talked about that. But Oklahoma,

179
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 1: you know, didn't have the season many expected, but still recruited,

180
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 1: recruited really, really hard this cycle and got up to

181
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 1: number four, which you know, I think is a testament

182
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 1: to that staff and how hard they're working. Heard a

183
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 1: lot of doom and gloom about Florida, but Florida's still

184
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 1: you know, thirteenth right behind USC. Still a pretty good

185
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,680
Speaker 1: class for the Gators in South Carolina. Look, you mentioned

186
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 1: South Carolina before, but South Carolina all the way up

187
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:54,439
Speaker 1: at at sixteen I think is notable. Obviously getting the

188
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 1: big signing here at the end with Nick Harbor. Yeah,

189
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 1: I mean that's a huge deal, right to help boost

190
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 1: that ranking. But just in terms of the SEC South

191
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 1: Carolina coming in seventh, behind Texas A and M, and

192
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 1: ahead of Auburn, Arkansas, Mississippi State, even Old miss to

193
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:16,440
Speaker 1: finish where they did, I think just continued steam on

194
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:20,560
Speaker 1: Shane Beemer Beamer ball, as Harbor called out when when

195
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 1: he announced that he was going to go to Columbia

196
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:27,360
Speaker 1: South Carolina instead. You know, there's definitely something of foot there.

197
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,079
Speaker 1: And if you're a South Carolina fan, I think you

198
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 1: got to be thrilled.

199
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:33,679
Speaker 2: Oh absolutely no. So this year, to me, the first

200
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 2: thing is it's a quarterback here. It is just because

201
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 2: of the top of the quarterback rankings list, whether it's

202
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 2: Arch Manning or Malachi Nelson.

203
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 1: Or Dante Yeah.

204
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:48,960
Speaker 2: So the big thing is when you have a class

205
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 2: like this and what we perceived to be Jaden Rashada

206
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 2: Arizona State, what we perceive to be depth of possibly

207
00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 2: incredible quarterbacks at the top, you're spreading talent around in

208
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 2: ways that we haven't necessarily seen at the top of

209
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 2: the sport. So what does that mean for UCLA? What

210
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 2: does that mean for Oklahoma who is used to getting

211
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 2: top flight quarterback talent obviously these past few years when

212
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 2: Lincoln Riley was running the show. Hopefully it means more

213
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 2: at the top of the sport that you have a

214
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 2: game changer at quarterback, and if it's Tennessee who definitely

215
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 2: had it this past year, but you have that guy

216
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,880
Speaker 2: for maybe two three years down the road developing within

217
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 2: that system, as opposed to Hendon Hooker and Joe Milton

218
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 2: transferring in. What does that mean for his ceiling? I

219
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 2: think it's a fascinating, fascinating year at quarterback. There's a guy,

220
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 2: Kase State got a quarterback. It's Avery. You might have

221
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,080
Speaker 2: it in front of you, Avery Johnson. Avery Johnson that

222
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 2: a lot of a ton of people think incredibly highly

223
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 2: of and maybe in a way that k State hasn't

224
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 2: had that high school commitment who has needed to develop

225
00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:50,840
Speaker 2: and I think he's like a two or three sports star.

226
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 2: So that kind of depth at the top of the

227
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,080
Speaker 2: sport I think can only be a good thing, especially

228
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 2: if we see a number of these guys in an

229
00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 2: expanded playoff that seems to be a in for everybody

230
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 2: who wants that quality in a deeper field.

231
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 1: On today's show, what I think we're going to try

232
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 1: and do is go through what do we got ten

233
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,760
Speaker 1: teams here? Something like that, Yeah, yeah, yeah. We want

234
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 1: to evaluate where things stand with a bunch of different

235
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,840
Speaker 1: schools in terms of what is going out, what is

236
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:26,080
Speaker 1: coming in, which players we could see from this class

237
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 1: making an impact, sure, and really just in looking at

238
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 1: the class as a whole, what does it tell us

239
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 1: about the health of the program, What does it tell

240
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 1: us about their priorities? Does that mesh with what we

241
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,679
Speaker 1: saw this season over the last couple of seasons. For

242
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 1: some places like Georgia, I'll talk about Georgia, Georgia isn't

243
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 1: a much much different class than most of college football.

244
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 1: If you're coming in as a freshman, it's a pretty

245
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 1: good chance, much like you'll see at Ohio State some

246
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 1: other places. Alabama is probably another great example, maybe one

247
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 1: of the only where if you're coming in as a freshman,

248
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 1: it's a pretty good chance that the best you're going

249
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 1: to do is get to the second team. There's enough

250
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:05,959
Speaker 1: depth from recruiting successes of years past that in order

251
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,559
Speaker 1: to crack that top line, you gotta be pre damn good.

252
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 1: That's not to say it doesn't happen. It happens all

253
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 1: the time, but that is I think where we start

254
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 1: the conversation with some of those truly elite programs. As

255
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 1: we work down a little bit, then we start talking about,

256
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 1: all right, who's plug and play, who can step in

257
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 1: and who can immediately make a difference. I'm going to

258
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 1: talk about Notre Dame as well. There are some guys

259
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:27,920
Speaker 1: in this class that could step in and make an

260
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 1: instant impact for Notre Dame. You don't quite have that

261
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 1: level of depth that we'll talk about with Alabama, Georgia, right,

262
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,959
Speaker 1: et cetera. So it obviously is a different conversation depending

263
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 1: on the team. But I think across the board here

264
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 1: with all these teams that we're going to discuss some

265
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 1: really interesting names that make the conversation quite quite intriguing

266
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 1: at this early stage of twenty twenty three.

267
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, and the SEC in particular, just because you mentioned Georgia,

268
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:56,720
Speaker 2: they finish number two with a paltry a paltry five

269
00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 2: five stars instead of Alabama's nine. The SEC is fascinating

270
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 2: because you can finish you know, eighth, ninth, tenth in

271
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 2: the conference and have a top fifteen class, a top

272
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 2: twenty class just because the area is so rich with talents.

273
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 2: You know, Ole Miss is one of those schools that

274
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:16,080
Speaker 2: doesn't recruit a ton because they you know, Lane Kiffen,

275
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:20,160
Speaker 2: the self described portal king. Fourteen commitments in this class.

276
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,360
Speaker 2: But the blue chip ratio is there seven blue chips,

277
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 2: seven non blue chips, and they're ranked at eleven in

278
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 2: the SEC with a fifty percent blue chip ratio. You

279
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 2: mentioned Florida, Tennessee in the top five within the SEC.

280
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 2: Not a surprise at LSU and Georgia are right there

281
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 2: in the top four with Alabama. But no, it's it's

282
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 2: wild to me that if Georgia puts together this class

283
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:44,880
Speaker 2: in you know, six of the last ten years or

284
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 2: something like that, it's winning everything, winning everything, and then

285
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 2: Alabama is just paced ahead. So what stands out to

286
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 2: you about the defending champion, the two time defending champion,

287
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:57,480
Speaker 2: Georgia Bulldogs and what they did.

288
00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's almost predictable. It's herb be smart

289
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 1: team and the focus of this class just by sheer

290
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 1: numbers is on both offensive and defensive line. It all

291
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 1: starts up front, thank you, David Pollock yep, and defensive back,

292
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 1: defensive back, So trying to replenish the lines, trying to

293
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 1: get good in the secondary. As you said, the number

294
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 1: two overall class, they had what appeared to be a

295
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 1: glaring weakness, weakness in air quotes. Of course at receiver,

296
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 1: big question at receiver. Of course brock Bauers is back.

297
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 1: Of course Lad McConkey is back. But with Ady Mitchell leaving,

298
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 1: it's like, all right, who's Georgia wants to get a

299
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 1: little bit more downfield? They have, They've done it, but

300
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 1: they want to do more of it, and I think

301
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 1: adding some ammo at receiver can help them do that.

302
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 1: So as opposed to addressing that as prominently through the

303
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 1: recruiting game, they're very active in the portal. Now, there

304
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,840
Speaker 1: was an arrest of other gentlemen who Rarah yep, rah

305
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 1: Rah came over from Misissippi State, which does not help.

306
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 1: I have not seen an update on that status, but

307
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 1: you know, they've been active enough in the portal that

308
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 1: I think they'll be They'll be just fine. The name

309
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 1: that obviously comes to mind. Somebody who's going to step

310
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,960
Speaker 1: in is Dominic Loveck. We talked about him on the

311
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 1: show and the Transfer Portal show that we did a

312
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago. He's someone who I think will

313
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 1: come in, give them depth, give them productivity out wide.

314
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 1: So I don't focus my attention as much there with

315
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 1: this twenty three class as I do again, Guys who

316
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:39,520
Speaker 1: you could see stepping up and maybe making some hay

317
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 1: on that second team level. Sure, the name that stands

318
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 1: out to me, and maybe it's only because of his size,

319
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:50,280
Speaker 1: I don't know, but Jamal Jarrett. Have you heard the

320
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 1: name Jamal Jarrett? Dan no, please expand on Jamal Jarrett. Yeah, Jamal,

321
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 1: Jamal Jarrett. Jamal Jarrett, excuse me? Is six six three

322
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:00,280
Speaker 1: forty Oh.

323
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 2: Sure.

324
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:05,880
Speaker 1: He's a big dude, and you can never have enough

325
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:10,000
Speaker 1: depth along the defensive line, especially if you've got a

326
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:13,679
Speaker 1: guy who is that size on the defensive line. I

327
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 1: gotta believe you find a way to plug him in.

328
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:21,119
Speaker 1: The comp has been Jordan Davis, who was obviously another

329
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 1: standout for the George Bulldogs along the defensive line. He

330
00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:29,399
Speaker 1: has got that kind of build and that kind of frame.

331
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 1: When Jordan Davis was there. We saw him also break

332
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,520
Speaker 1: into the twos his freshman year back in twenty eighteen.

333
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:40,439
Speaker 1: Whenever that was so, I could see Jarrett taking on

334
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,879
Speaker 1: a much, much similar path, just given the fact that

335
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 1: he's so damn big, and if he does possess that

336
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 1: Jordan Davis skill set, obviously Kirby Smart's gonna have a

337
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 1: place for him. Oh yeah, of course.

338
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:54,720
Speaker 2: And you look at even last year's class, the guys

339
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 2: who saw the field quickly, Michael Williams, Malachi Starks obviously

340
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 2: made an early impact. And it's one of those luxuries

341
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,400
Speaker 2: that a team like Georgia, that a program like Georgia has,

342
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,159
Speaker 2: is when you're up thirty four to three at the

343
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,679
Speaker 2: top of the third quarter, suddenly you can play freshman,

344
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 2: Suddenly you can play your twos, your threes, and they're

345
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:10,720
Speaker 2: getting a ton of playing time.

346
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:11,439
Speaker 1: And so if.

347
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 2: Physically that guy is ready, as you said, Jamal Jarrett,

348
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:17,199
Speaker 2: Jamal Jarrett, yeah, yeah, I don't know the kind of

349
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:19,640
Speaker 2: weight he's carrying, that's a big deal as well. If

350
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,760
Speaker 2: he has the energy, if he has the motor at

351
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 2: three hundred and forty pounds, if he should be paying

352
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 2: at three fifteen or something like that, I guess yet

353
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,919
Speaker 2: to be seen. But yeah, these guys, especially Glenn Schuman

354
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 2: and Will mus Champ, are going to continue the whole

355
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:35,160
Speaker 2: thing of just like rotating in guys legs fresh, legs fresh,

356
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 2: and so George is going to be in a good place.

357
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:39,639
Speaker 2: Lose a couple of big name guys in this year's

358
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:43,160
Speaker 2: class heading off to the NFL, and Keey Ringo, Jalen Carter,

359
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 2: you know some of the headliners there. Sure, but yeah,

360
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 2: I expect even if these guys don't play a ton

361
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:50,880
Speaker 2: from this class, the top of this class, whether it's

362
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 2: a receiver, whether it's defensive lineman, I just expect if

363
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 2: they are there physically, if the fitness is there, that

364
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,359
Speaker 2: they're going to see the field. So Kirby's mark and

365
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,480
Speaker 2: see what he has in this year's class. Yeah, I mean,

366
00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 2: and look when.

367
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:05,880
Speaker 1: I talk about Jamal Jared, I'm not even talking about

368
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,080
Speaker 1: some of the highest rated guys in this class, right.

369
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 1: I mean, it's an incredible class. It was two overall,

370
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 1: what do you say, five five stars. So, whether it's

371
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 1: Damon Wilson, the edge rusher out of Florida, Raylan Wilson,

372
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 1: the linebacker out of Florida Monroe Freeling, the big offensive tackle.

373
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 1: I don't know if he will get work. It's a

374
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:27,879
Speaker 1: good spot for him because George has been good at

375
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:32,239
Speaker 1: developing offensive tackles as of late. So whenever he gets in,

376
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 1: he's in a good spot. Like They've got guys here

377
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:39,880
Speaker 1: that are are far even above Jamal Jarreted in terms

378
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:44,400
Speaker 1: of recruiting ranking, and I suppose there's always an opportunity

379
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,920
Speaker 1: for those guys. But I just think, if I'm trying

380
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:50,159
Speaker 1: to pick a name from this big list, his size

381
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 1: is really appealing to me, and that comp Whenever I

382
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 1: see Jordan Davids, it's like, all right, I remember where

383
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,639
Speaker 1: we were when Jordan Davis was getting all sorts of

384
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 1: draft types. Sure, so that's a guy who you would

385
00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 1: think could coming in and make an impact of forestar

386
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:03,800
Speaker 1: in his own right out of North Carolina.

387
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:06,439
Speaker 2: So the other class that I'm especially interested in because

388
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,960
Speaker 2: of the early success they had in the SEC is

389
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 2: LSU is Brian Kelly and his first full it's really

390
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:17,400
Speaker 2: his not his first first one will be next year

391
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 2: when you have that kind of time to build those relationships.

392
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 2: But when's the West beats Alabama in year one starts

393
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:27,640
Speaker 2: terribly and things turn around. Jade Daniels has a very

394
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:31,000
Speaker 2: nice season. What did LSU focus on? I know they

395
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,679
Speaker 2: hit the portal hard once again as they sort of

396
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 2: overhaul things from the end of the ed Orizon era.

397
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 2: Where do you stand with LSU right now?

398
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,040
Speaker 1: Where do I stand with LSU? You know, I've had

399
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:47,159
Speaker 1: to come around on LSU because LSU had such a

400
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:50,480
Speaker 1: good season. I mean, it was an incredible first year

401
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:54,680
Speaker 1: for Brian Kelly in Baton Rouge. Say whatever I will

402
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,240
Speaker 1: as a scorn Notre Dame fan about his inability to

403
00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 1: manage a quarterback situation or you know, and disingenuous qualities

404
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:05,160
Speaker 1: that he might have with him as a coach.

405
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 2: Well, is it a big time place now?

406
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 1: Ty? He's had a big time place and the guy

407
00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 1: wins that. The guy just wins. He knows how to win.

408
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 1: So in terms of this recruiting class, pretty active in

409
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:19,400
Speaker 1: the portal, A bunch of guys coming in, it seems.

410
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:22,399
Speaker 1: In the portal especially, they're very active on defense. There

411
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 1: are a number of cornerbacks that they brought in, a

412
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,560
Speaker 1: couple of linemen, some edge rushers that can step in

413
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:31,320
Speaker 1: and hopefully make an impact. But the focus. I think

414
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 1: predominantly just through the recruiting game was out wide. Was

415
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:40,800
Speaker 1: out wide. By my account, five or six receivers as

416
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:45,679
Speaker 1: part of this class, Jalen Brown out of Florida, Kyle

417
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:50,400
Speaker 1: Parker four star out of Texas. We have other guys here,

418
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:55,760
Speaker 1: Sheldon Sampson junior, four star out of Louisiana, hometown kid.

419
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 1: I could go down the list here of other guys

420
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:00,040
Speaker 1: that they added as part of this class, but that

421
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:04,879
Speaker 1: for sure was a focus. I mentioned defensive back again.

422
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 1: I harken back to this not as much a focus

423
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 1: in the quote unquote recruiting game, at least not the

424
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:15,200
Speaker 1: freshman recruiting game, but definitely something they were aggressive through

425
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,320
Speaker 1: the portal in trying to beef up. So I think

426
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,439
Speaker 1: that tells you a lot about where Brian Kelly wants

427
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 1: to try and make this team better. He wants to

428
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 1: focus on adding playmakers out wide, certainly adding some air

429
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:30,879
Speaker 1: cover through the back. And then if you're trying to

430
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:34,359
Speaker 1: pick out a secondary focus, you're talking about the lines.

431
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 1: It's exactly what it did at Notre Dame. It's a

432
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:38,600
Speaker 1: much much similar model to what it did at Notre Dame.

433
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:40,480
Speaker 1: You're gonna add some offensive linem. You're gonna add some

434
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:42,639
Speaker 1: defensive lineman. You're going to try and build from the

435
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:46,440
Speaker 1: inside out and start there. If nowhere else, start there.

436
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:48,880
Speaker 1: That was the sustainable model that worked really well at

437
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:53,399
Speaker 1: Notre Dame. I'd imagine those efforts in the SEC have

438
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,280
Speaker 1: to be doubled. It is. The SEC is a line league.

439
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:58,040
Speaker 1: If you don't have a line in the SEC, you're

440
00:22:58,040 --> 00:22:59,359
Speaker 1: gonna get blown off the ball. You're not going to

441
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 1: win games. Brian Kelly smart enough to know that. So

442
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:04,439
Speaker 1: that's also why that area was a focus. It's been

443
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 1: a focus for many of these top teams that we're discussing.

444
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: I think you're going to see a recurring trend, but

445
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,600
Speaker 1: for sure that is where he focused here as part

446
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 1: of this twenty three class. This is a really good class. Look,

447
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:19,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I think third in the SEC, seventh overall,

448
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:23,479
Speaker 1: sixth overall, sixth overall. So you know, this was a

449
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 1: really really strong class for Brian Kelly, maybe his first

450
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:30,920
Speaker 1: like truly full cycle since he stepped foot on campus.

451
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:33,920
Speaker 1: And it's good to see if you're an LSU fan,

452
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,879
Speaker 1: the kind of work he did here. There's definitely steam

453
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:39,919
Speaker 1: on on the Tigers.

454
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you get a sense for what he thinks,

455
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:44,440
Speaker 2: and it's not necessarily going to be a twenty twenty

456
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 2: three thing, but what he thinks the roster lacks. And

457
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,199
Speaker 2: when you look at what LSU was good and not

458
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:52,960
Speaker 2: as good at doing this season, it was making plays

459
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:56,879
Speaker 2: downfield consistently, all due respect to Malik Neighbors Kisham Boute.

460
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,240
Speaker 2: And they actually showed up really nicely for a chunk

461
00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:02,240
Speaker 2: of that Georgia s SC championship game. But they I

462
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:03,639
Speaker 2: think they finished a hunt. You can look at this

463
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:06,399
Speaker 2: while it's like one hundred and twenty first and explosive

464
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:10,639
Speaker 2: passing and eighty ninth and explosive passing allowed, and so

465
00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:13,600
Speaker 2: you know, they hit dB relatively hard. I know you

466
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 2: said that it wasn't a huge priority this year, but

467
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,800
Speaker 2: I think safety seemed to be a priority to lock

468
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:19,879
Speaker 2: up the back half of that field whoever it is,

469
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 2: both locally in state and in Texas, and so that

470
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,399
Speaker 2: that gives you an indication of where Brian Kelly and

471
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,639
Speaker 2: his staff think the roster is and where it isn't.

472
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:34,040
Speaker 2: And so yeah, I think that's it's a huge and

473
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:38,400
Speaker 2: it's a it's a huge degree of addressing an immediate

474
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 2: need right now, and if they can find a guy

475
00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:43,399
Speaker 2: in that list that you mentioned at receiver goes a

476
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:45,760
Speaker 2: long way this year when you you know you're bringing

477
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 2: back a sixth year guy or whatever in Jaden Daniels

478
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 2: and you have the experience you bring back on offense,

479
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,200
Speaker 2: it's you know, chips to the center of the table

480
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:53,600
Speaker 2: for this passing game right now.

481
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:57,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, if I'm talking about impact guys that

482
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:01,679
Speaker 1: can step in, right. So one of the drawbacks if

483
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 1: we're trying to pick out that name, especially in a

484
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 1: class that did emphasize to some extent receiver, Suddenly the

485
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 1: receiver room's kind of crowded, right Yeah, Suddenly you've got

486
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:12,919
Speaker 1: a bunch of names that you got to worry about.

487
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,080
Speaker 1: The one that I come back to, I think is

488
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:20,240
Speaker 1: Jalen Brown. I really like him. He's from Florida. Yeah,

489
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:24,679
Speaker 1: he's from Miami. He's a guy that has you know,

490
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:30,160
Speaker 1: gotten I think second third round grades per the scouts

491
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:34,440
Speaker 1: over at twenty four to seven. Not the biggest receiver

492
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:37,760
Speaker 1: in the world, but definitely somebody who you know, is playmaker,

493
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:40,120
Speaker 1: somebody they can put in space, someone that they can

494
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:42,440
Speaker 1: get some yards after the catch. That type I don't

495
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:44,720
Speaker 1: know if he'll be able to get a little bit

496
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 1: bigger as part of being an early en roll lead,

497
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 1: being on campus earlier strength and conditioning. Excuse me the

498
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:53,639
Speaker 1: whole nine yards there, But Jalen Brown's a guy on

499
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 1: offense that I think is really interesting as somebody who

500
00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:00,640
Speaker 1: could potentially step in and find his way. Big name, though,

501
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:05,280
Speaker 1: I think is Deshaun Woollmack. He was their five star

502
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:09,000
Speaker 1: edge rusher. He's from Maryland, so it was a nice

503
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 1: pull to get him to come south. For Brian Kelly,

504
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 1: his comp's been Bud Dupree from the Towns, So you

505
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 1: know that. That tells you pretty much all everything you

506
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:24,000
Speaker 1: need to know about this guy. There is definitely a

507
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:30,280
Speaker 1: need along this defensive line for for LSU to bring

508
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 1: somebody in to replace some of the outgoing production, and

509
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 1: if you can get after the passer, that's going to

510
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:39,360
Speaker 1: help as well. So he's a guy, just given his grade,

511
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 1: just given what we know about his skill set, you

512
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,440
Speaker 1: could see him almost being plug and play.

513
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 2: Pretty nice to have when you return. Arguably the best

514
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 2: defensive player in the country, and Harold Perkins bring in

515
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,159
Speaker 2: so obviously Matt Howise and Brian Kelly not afraid of

516
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:59,200
Speaker 2: playing youth on defense, and so yeah, you add him

517
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,880
Speaker 2: to Harold Burke, even if it's just a rotation guy.

518
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,360
Speaker 2: Sometimes you look at the guys who are coming in

519
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:06,479
Speaker 2: as edge players. They're not going to play a ton

520
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:08,439
Speaker 2: of snaps. They're not three down guys. But if you

521
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:11,480
Speaker 2: have a specialized guy on the edge who can say,

522
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:13,879
Speaker 2: see quarterback hit quarterback on third and nine, and you

523
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:16,639
Speaker 2: have specific packages for him, it makes a ton of

524
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 2: sense to get him comfortable. And so yeah, when you

525
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 2: have the insurance policy of Harold Perkins on the other side,

526
00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:24,280
Speaker 2: pretty good place to be. If everything holds up in

527
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:26,439
Speaker 2: the back end a little bit better for LSU over.

528
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:30,560
Speaker 1: The course of the year. Talk to me about Oregon, Dan, okay,

529
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:33,440
Speaker 1: going out west. I want to go out west because

530
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:38,280
Speaker 1: Oregon is Orgon is kicking up big time dust, not

531
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,359
Speaker 1: just in the recruiting game with some of the guys

532
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:43,840
Speaker 1: they've flipped, but also obviously the transfer port has been

533
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:47,000
Speaker 1: very active in the transfer portal. Feels like Oregon has

534
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:49,119
Speaker 1: reeled in about eighty percent of the big names in

535
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:53,520
Speaker 1: the transfer portal so far. So where where does this

536
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 1: roster stand? What do they need and have they addressed

537
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:02,040
Speaker 1: those needs? Via this recruiting cycle, either through the portal

538
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 1: or through you know, freshman recruiting.

539
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:07,240
Speaker 2: It seems they have it seems to have. The clear

540
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,399
Speaker 2: focus is defensive line. They bring in ten defensive linemen.

541
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,360
Speaker 2: I believe defensive line into a lesser extent corner ten

542
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 2: ten defensive linemen. However, we're categorizing edge players including edge

543
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:24,000
Speaker 2: type players ten ten defensive linemen. They hit Texas for

544
00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 2: a couple of big names. They hit Arizona for a

545
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:30,359
Speaker 2: couple of big names. Southern California ten defensive linemen in

546
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:33,240
Speaker 2: this coming class. I think the headline name is Matteo

547
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:39,480
Speaker 2: Uyungala lay Dju's little brother aka Young Concrete, Young Concrete,

548
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:43,240
Speaker 2: Young Concrete, a wonderful nickname. They beat out USC for

549
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 2: his services. Was a two way player in high school. Yeah,

550
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 2: and so I think he's looked at as a sort

551
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 2: of physical marvel who is still trying to hit his

552
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:56,400
Speaker 2: potential as an edge rusher. And there's not a ton

553
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 2: of pressure on him because you mentioned the portal. Jordan

554
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 2: Birch coming in from South Carol line of things, I

555
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 2: think is expected to get a majority of those snaps

556
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 2: at the edge position on the Oregon defense but with

557
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:08,400
Speaker 2: the way Oregon was not able to get a pass

558
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 2: rush this year, it was very clear that defensive line depth,

559
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,120
Speaker 2: getting pushed inside, getting to the quarterback from the outside,

560
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,720
Speaker 2: from the edge, was the huge priority. The other big

561
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 2: name is Johnny Bowens from Texas who came on late

562
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 2: in the process. I think he was an Army All

563
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:25,600
Speaker 2: American or an under armor one of those, one of

564
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 2: the All Americans and flashed in practice there and so

565
00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:31,320
Speaker 2: he's got decent size to come in as a rotation player.

566
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 2: But yeah, Oregon and you know, Toash Lupoy and Dan

567
00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:37,680
Speaker 2: Lanning are going to have their choice of guys. That

568
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,880
Speaker 2: defensive line roster is deep, and they also return three

569
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 2: or four or five guys who started a bunch this

570
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:46,600
Speaker 2: past year, so that's the clear priority. They flipped an

571
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:49,920
Speaker 2: LSU corner on the previous signing day, Dalen Austin. They

572
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 2: added a blue chip corner and Roderick Pleasant, who owns

573
00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 2: the California one hundred meter record. Okay, not me anymore,

574
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:02,080
Speaker 2: not my number anymore, but ran a ten one Roderick Pleasant,

575
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:05,080
Speaker 2: so they beat USC out for his services. So look,

576
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 2: the issues last year were tackling and in the pass game,

577
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:12,280
Speaker 2: on defense, and so they're addressing it aggressively. And so

578
00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 2: even though they took some big swings and it didn't

579
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 2: work out for some guys on both sides of the ball,

580
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:21,000
Speaker 2: those could be I mean Bowen's and Mateo could be

581
00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:24,320
Speaker 2: rotation guys, depending on how quickly the fitness is there,

582
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 2: the ability to read and develop moves against offensive lineman

583
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 2: is there. On the offensive side of the ball. The

584
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:31,560
Speaker 2: big one is I don't know if he's still a

585
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:33,440
Speaker 2: five star. At one point was a five star from

586
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 2: Northern California. Jury and Dicky about six three, two ten

587
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:40,680
Speaker 2: two fifteen, and so they lost Dante Thornton, they lost

588
00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 2: Chase Coda, they lost a couple of big names, but

589
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 2: they hit receiver. They bring in Troy's best receiver as

590
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,640
Speaker 2: well through the portal. So that's a name who I

591
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:51,560
Speaker 2: think physically could be there pretty quickly from the same

592
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 2: area where Troy Franklin's from. Who's their clear number one receiver. Yeah,

593
00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:58,080
Speaker 2: they're set at running back the offensive line through the portal.

594
00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 2: I don't think there's gonna be early impact guys. There's

595
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:02,840
Speaker 2: a JC guy they hit Hawaii for an offensive lineman,

596
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 2: but I really think it's going to be it's going

597
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:07,600
Speaker 2: to be dicky and maybe I mean they're thin at corner,

598
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,480
Speaker 2: they're thin at safety. If you remember, Peyton Bowen was

599
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 2: a commitment for about eight and a half minutes on

600
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:17,560
Speaker 2: signing day. We'll talk about Oklahoma. So yeah, they address

601
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 2: things on defense. Those are the two big names to

602
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 2: me that Oregon and we talked about this. You can

603
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,520
Speaker 2: look up the video as well in terms of what

604
00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:29,680
Speaker 2: Oregon needs to fix. They are aggressively going after those

605
00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:31,880
Speaker 2: guys on defense and selling Dan Lanning and what he

606
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:34,240
Speaker 2: was able to do at Georgia in terms of development,

607
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 2: in terms of system, in.

608
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:40,959
Speaker 1: Terms of Dan Rubinstein's pet player. Oh, this incoming class

609
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,520
Speaker 1: and I'll lump together though, and this isn't a portal show,

610
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:48,280
Speaker 1: but for the purposes of this specific debate, we'll talk

611
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 1: about both the incoming freshmen as well as the portal.

612
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,360
Speaker 1: Who are the guys that you are just fascinated with.

613
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 1: Maybe not the guys that get on the field right away,

614
00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,240
Speaker 1: maybe they have to wait their turn a year or two.

615
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,040
Speaker 1: But the names that you've been reading, that you've been

616
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:04,400
Speaker 1: hearing a lot about as you troll your message boards

617
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 1: and the ceed under belly that is Duck Nation. Where

618
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:12,560
Speaker 1: are you at the Dutch Web?

619
00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:13,120
Speaker 2: Yeah?

620
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, where are you at? With respect to just the

621
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:17,960
Speaker 1: guys that you are most fascinated in.

622
00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 2: Dante Moore still hurts TI. Dante Moore to UCLA late

623
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 2: in the process before the previous signing day. Now he's

624
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:28,480
Speaker 2: going to be very good for the Bruins eventually. The

625
00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:31,240
Speaker 2: big name to me is when you have the type

626
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,640
Speaker 2: of hybrid type players on either side of the ball, right,

627
00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 2: when you have the linebacker who can be excellent in coverage,

628
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:38,080
Speaker 2: when you can have the safety who can come up

629
00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:39,680
Speaker 2: and hit on offense.

630
00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:41,240
Speaker 1: To me, it's Kenyan Sadik.

631
00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 2: I believe that's how you pronounce his name correctly. He's

632
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 2: a tight end from Idaho, was a riser in the

633
00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:50,760
Speaker 2: process and could be that kind of at his absolute peak.

634
00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:50,959
Speaker 1: Right.

635
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 2: The modern comparison would be like Kyle Pitts, the type

636
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:56,920
Speaker 2: of tight end who can run like a receiver, and

637
00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,480
Speaker 2: so that to me is fascinating. Organ has had some

638
00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:02,120
Speaker 2: of those guys in years past where they become a

639
00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:06,280
Speaker 2: matchup problem, a matchup nightmare, folks, a matchup problem. To me,

640
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,520
Speaker 2: that's the one that's really interesting that he might have

641
00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:12,400
Speaker 2: the athleticism to be special for an Oregon offense, at

642
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:14,320
Speaker 2: least that we saw last year use a lot of

643
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:16,080
Speaker 2: two tight end sets. I think there's a little bit

644
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:19,280
Speaker 2: fewer of those this year with will Stein, but still,

645
00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,000
Speaker 2: when you have somebody like that who could potentially be

646
00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:25,720
Speaker 2: a problem to linebacker, safeties, whatever, hard not to get excited.

647
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,600
Speaker 2: So Kenyan Sadik from Idaho is the one that I'm

648
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 2: I'm extremely hopeful for works out. Let's move over to Oklahoma.

649
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:38,360
Speaker 2: Let's Oklahoma. This season did not.

650
00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 1: Live up to expectations. You're one for brand Vannerbols was

651
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:46,360
Speaker 1: a bit of a bix bag, but as I said

652
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 1: at the top, this was a really strong effort on

653
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 1: the recruiting trail. Fourth nationally. These rankings, by the way,

654
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,480
Speaker 1: are shifting as we're recording this. I'm sure if I'm

655
00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:57,960
Speaker 1: saying one name or one number and then it's a

656
00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 1: different number a little bit later, please forgive me, but yeah,

657
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 1: right now, number four on the twenty four to seven

658
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:08,920
Speaker 1: Composite Charts, three five stars. The big one was Jackson Arnold,

659
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 1: the quarterback, but he also mentioned Peyton Bowen, who for

660
00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:15,120
Speaker 1: a while was going to Notre Dame until he was

661
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 1: going to Oregon and ended up at Oklahoma. So by

662
00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:21,279
Speaker 1: a large, pretty strong class. Where was their focus? Just

663
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,480
Speaker 1: out of curiosity? Where where did brand Vennables focus his

664
00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:27,480
Speaker 1: energy here as he tried to build this thing? Brick

665
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:29,719
Speaker 1: by brick, if you have the sound, oh I do

666
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:30,359
Speaker 1: have this sound.

667
00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:33,040
Speaker 2: I thanks for teeing me up here. Thank you, brick

668
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:39,240
Speaker 2: by brick In twenty twenty three, defense defense, defense, defense, defense, defense, defense.

669
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,319
Speaker 2: And if you watched Oklahoma football this year, you know

670
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:44,239
Speaker 2: that there are jobs of plenty of ail this year.

671
00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:45,919
Speaker 1: How about the last five years?

672
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:49,560
Speaker 2: Well, No, twenty twenty was good, twenty twenty one, twenty

673
00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:53,960
Speaker 2: twenty two less so. And so I'm very much not

674
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:57,000
Speaker 2: going to tell you. Yeah, they have eleven guys. Between

675
00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:58,799
Speaker 2: what they did on the defensive line and in the

676
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:02,000
Speaker 2: defensive backfield in this years class, seven of them will

677
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 2: see the field consistently.

678
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:04,440
Speaker 1: It's not going to.

679
00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:08,960
Speaker 2: Work like that specifically, but in terms of a high floor,

680
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:12,320
Speaker 2: you know, Peyton Bowen was the headliner ahead of the

681
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:15,200
Speaker 2: previous signing day. Notre Dame d commit or can commit,

682
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 2: Oklahoma commit. They've got an edge rusher. I'm just gonna

683
00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:20,920
Speaker 2: call double A because I don't want to pronounce his name,

684
00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:22,400
Speaker 2: and I've.

685
00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:25,319
Speaker 1: Been staring at this name the entire time. I don't

686
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 1: want to attempt it. Was you a Diba war A,

687
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,879
Speaker 1: There's no way his name right again.

688
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:36,080
Speaker 2: It's one of those plug and play situations where he

689
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,839
Speaker 2: might not see the field a ton, but in very

690
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:42,440
Speaker 2: specific packages and situations third and long obvious passing downs,

691
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:44,759
Speaker 2: you can see somebody like him with the kind of

692
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:47,120
Speaker 2: burst that he has off of the line making a

693
00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 2: huge impact. The number two edge rusher in the country.

694
00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:55,640
Speaker 1: Five stars, seven foot wingspan, here man, all of us

695
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:59,920
Speaker 1: great athletes have it. But yeah, it's gonna be deef.

696
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:01,880
Speaker 2: It's going to be if you saw, you know, the

697
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:06,479
Speaker 2: back half of the defense against Texas against TCU, whether

698
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:09,040
Speaker 2: it's Peyton Bowen, who I still think has a little

699
00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:11,080
Speaker 2: bit of a ways to go physically, but I think

700
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:13,640
Speaker 2: his instincts are there to come in and sort of

701
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:16,960
Speaker 2: level things off at like a center field type position.

702
00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:18,479
Speaker 2: I don't think he's going to come up and pop

703
00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:21,600
Speaker 2: people in the way that a more complete safety you know,

704
00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 2: at the onset would. But they just need help, and

705
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 2: they addressed a lot of things on offense through the

706
00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:30,600
Speaker 2: portal andrel Anthony coming in from Michigan, So that's not

707
00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:32,319
Speaker 2: going to be as much of a priority in this

708
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:36,720
Speaker 2: year's high school class. It just seems to be defense, defense, defense,

709
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:40,200
Speaker 2: And for good reason, Brent Venable's reputation precedes him with

710
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:42,279
Speaker 2: a lot of these guys who he has a relationship

711
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:45,279
Speaker 2: going back to his time at Clemson with already, and

712
00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,760
Speaker 2: so that to me is going to be the early

713
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:50,320
Speaker 2: impact stuff, And that, to me is if Oklahoma is

714
00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:54,839
Speaker 2: going to improve. It was clearly not just a scheme thing.

715
00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 2: It was a not enough guys winning one on one

716
00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:00,479
Speaker 2: battles all the time kind of thing. When you watched

717
00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:03,759
Speaker 2: Oklahoma this year beat up thin, you know, with transfers

718
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,680
Speaker 2: after Lincoln Riley left. But even so, I think you're

719
00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 2: going to see, maybe not this year, but the fruits

720
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 2: of this year's class really come to play in twenty

721
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:13,120
Speaker 2: twenty four.

722
00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:18,160
Speaker 1: Yeah. An interesting metric that our friend Bill Connolly tracks

723
00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:24,560
Speaker 1: is percentage of passes where the guys wide open. Yeah,

724
00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:28,239
Speaker 1: wide open. Now you could dig deep into the end uncontested. Yeah,

725
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:32,400
Speaker 1: of what wide open means. But by that metric, the

726
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:35,920
Speaker 1: Oklahoma defense was one hundred and twenty fifth nationally, one

727
00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:39,440
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty fifth nationally with guys getting wide open.

728
00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:42,480
Speaker 1: So whether that is a function of the line not

729
00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:45,480
Speaker 1: getting pressured into a great job getting pressure either or

730
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:48,400
Speaker 1: if it's just not enough guys, not enough talent in

731
00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:51,520
Speaker 1: the secondary, it could be a combination. It probably is

732
00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:54,040
Speaker 1: a combination of both. But that's a very telling stack

733
00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:57,600
Speaker 1: and obviously something brand Ventable's is trying to address here.

734
00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:00,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, and what's interesting about Oklahoma and this is nothing

735
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,359
Speaker 2: new because going back to Bob Stoops, they were able

736
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:05,080
Speaker 2: to do it as well. But this isn't a program

737
00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:07,759
Speaker 2: that's just going to rely on Texas and Oklahoma and

738
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:11,399
Speaker 2: Arizona and the surrounding areas. They do a pretty good

739
00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 2: job extending to California. They up to they weren't to one.

740
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:16,799
Speaker 2: We went up to Washington this year. They went into

741
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:20,040
Speaker 2: Florida obviously, given the roots of some of the coaches

742
00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:23,320
Speaker 2: on staff, and so it makes a ton of sense

743
00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:25,120
Speaker 2: that they would. I mean, they're not going to finish

744
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:27,920
Speaker 2: with the top five to six class every season, but

745
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:33,960
Speaker 2: it's definitely a clear example of plenty of open jobs,

746
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:37,400
Speaker 2: come play, come play early. Oklahoma's going to the SEC,

747
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:39,640
Speaker 2: so they're going to be on an even bigger stage

748
00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:42,720
Speaker 2: in the short term that they'd be able to recruit

749
00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:45,560
Speaker 2: like this. So good for Brent Venables, good for good

750
00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:47,160
Speaker 2: for the Sooners. The future is right. And that's not

751
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:50,360
Speaker 2: even to mention Jackson Arnolds from Texas. And you know,

752
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:54,080
Speaker 2: there are corners of the quarterback recruiting world that feel

753
00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 2: like he might have the highest ceiling, especially considering you

754
00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:59,880
Speaker 2: know what receiver looks like moving forward, what Jeff led

755
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,959
Speaker 2: He's done with quarterbacks and offenses these past few years

756
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:07,640
Speaker 2: with Lane Kiffin and at UCF. So Jackson Arnold appears

757
00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:10,400
Speaker 2: to be that kind of He's thought of in a

758
00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:13,839
Speaker 2: pinpoint way, and so the future extremely bright, especially since

759
00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:16,000
Speaker 2: he's not thrown to the fire this year with Dylan

760
00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:19,080
Speaker 2: Gabriel coming back. I think Oklahoma is in a very

761
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:22,680
Speaker 2: very good position to be a team that doesn't necessarily

762
00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 2: see huge changes in the win loss column this coming season.

763
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:27,560
Speaker 2: They're going to be going in a bowl game this

764
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:31,200
Speaker 2: year for sure, but you're going to see, oh, they

765
00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:33,560
Speaker 2: just blew out a team we know is decent, and

766
00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:35,239
Speaker 2: that's not necessarily what we saw last year.

767
00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:36,760
Speaker 1: Where do you want to go next?

768
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:41,600
Speaker 2: I guess we'll pair Oklahoma with Texas. I'll just keep going, Yeah,

769
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:42,319
Speaker 2: that's cool with you.

770
00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:45,319
Speaker 1: I would love to hear from Texas. So the big

771
00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:47,400
Speaker 1: name is arch Maning, arch Manning number one overall recruit,

772
00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:50,200
Speaker 1: arch Manning going to Texas. Maybe you can speak to

773
00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,520
Speaker 1: some extent about what that means for the quarterback room.

774
00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:56,319
Speaker 1: Obviously Hudson card leaving, m quinn Ewers is still there.

775
00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:59,760
Speaker 1: That could be interesting as we get into fall camp.

776
00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:05,200
Speaker 1: But you know, I think the book on Texas is

777
00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:07,600
Speaker 1: kind of out right, like we we had a pretty

778
00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:12,400
Speaker 1: good sense for what Texas was this past season. Definitely

779
00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:15,719
Speaker 1: still falling short of expectations, but I feel like the

780
00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:19,920
Speaker 1: vision became a little bit clearer this season with Steve Sarkisian.

781
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:24,560
Speaker 1: It seems like Texas got better in some respect, maybe

782
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:29,040
Speaker 1: took steps steps back in some others, but in general,

783
00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:31,240
Speaker 1: I think if you're a Texas fan, you can start

784
00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:34,719
Speaker 1: to see the light a little bit. It feels like

785
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:37,080
Speaker 1: this thing is getting better and the recruiting class is

786
00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:40,800
Speaker 1: very strong. Recruiting class was three overall. You know, Sarka

787
00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:43,960
Speaker 1: is obviously putting in the hard work there, But where

788
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:47,040
Speaker 1: are we at with Texas? How do you feel in

789
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:51,600
Speaker 1: terms of optimism about how this class adds to any

790
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:55,960
Speaker 1: momentum they established last year. Everybody seems to recruit well

791
00:40:56,040 --> 00:41:00,360
Speaker 1: at Texas, Mac Brown, Charlie Strong, Tom Herman, Steve Sarkhion

792
00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:00,960
Speaker 1: for good reason.

793
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,920
Speaker 2: Right, it's the premiere program. Apologies to Texas A and M,

794
00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:07,200
Speaker 2: but it's the premier program in the state and it

795
00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:10,640
Speaker 2: attracts a good amount of talent. This year's class is

796
00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:13,160
Speaker 2: no different. Arch Manning is an interesting case study because

797
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:16,719
Speaker 2: and Brandon Huffman talked about this last year when we

798
00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:20,200
Speaker 2: talked about the quarterback dominos, and obviously on the first

799
00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:24,280
Speaker 2: signing day it's arch Manning didn't test himself against other quarterbacks.

800
00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:26,799
Speaker 2: He was not an illegal, Elite eleven guy, he wasn't

801
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:29,120
Speaker 2: a camp guy, he wasn't an All Star game guy,

802
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:31,320
Speaker 2: and so played at a small private school.

803
00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:33,080
Speaker 1: In New Orleans. I think it's Archbishop Newman.

804
00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:37,440
Speaker 2: And so we are relying on a sample size of

805
00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:42,120
Speaker 2: games and projections based on lineage, and so he is

806
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:44,520
Speaker 2: not going to start this year because starting this year

807
00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:47,680
Speaker 2: would mean going to Tuscaloos in week two. If I'm

808
00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:50,160
Speaker 2: looking at the schedule correctly, I don't think they're going

809
00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:52,480
Speaker 2: to throw a true freshman into that kind of fire

810
00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:56,719
Speaker 2: in his second week. It's the first year of I

811
00:41:56,760 --> 00:42:00,880
Speaker 2: think Byu and Houston are on the schedule. Quin Yours

812
00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:03,000
Speaker 2: needs to get better, but this is not about quin

813
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:07,160
Speaker 2: Yours there I think if quin Yours is better in

814
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:10,440
Speaker 2: second halves and the offense is better in second halves

815
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:13,759
Speaker 2: and there's more pop outside consistently, because we saw it

816
00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:17,000
Speaker 2: with Xavier Worthy, but kind of at times he's beat up.

817
00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:20,200
Speaker 2: He kind of disappeared for stretches, the offense disappeared for stretches.

818
00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:23,880
Speaker 2: The story with Texas right now is how far the

819
00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:27,240
Speaker 2: defense has come and they lose a number of key pieces,

820
00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:30,080
Speaker 2: especially upfront. The linebacker is going to be a little

821
00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:31,200
Speaker 2: bit of a new look.

822
00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:32,240
Speaker 1: Good news.

823
00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:35,080
Speaker 2: They bring in the number one linebacker in America in

824
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:38,920
Speaker 2: Anthony Hill, and so again, I don't know if he's

825
00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:41,839
Speaker 2: ready to be a three down type guy. It's kind

826
00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:44,080
Speaker 2: of impossible to see him not being in some sort

827
00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:46,880
Speaker 2: of rotation if the fitness is there, if the understanding

828
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:48,560
Speaker 2: is there, and you're not the number one linebacker in

829
00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:52,000
Speaker 2: the country without fitness, without understanding, without the ability to

830
00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:55,520
Speaker 2: have to utilize your instincts for the better as a linebacker.

831
00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:59,240
Speaker 2: Is the liability and coverage as a freshman, probably because

832
00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:04,320
Speaker 2: all linebackers are ty. All linebackers are The other early

833
00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:06,719
Speaker 2: impact guy I could see just because of the what

834
00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:09,120
Speaker 2: the depth chart looks like. Is Cedric Baxter a bigger

835
00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:11,520
Speaker 2: running back? Oh ye, with both Roshawn Johnson and be

836
00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:13,839
Speaker 2: Shawn Robinson. Moving on to the NFL im.

837
00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:15,319
Speaker 1: Glad you mentioned him because I was going to ask

838
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:16,560
Speaker 1: about that running back spot.

839
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:20,799
Speaker 2: Yes, the size is there. I imagine from what I

840
00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:23,680
Speaker 2: can tell from watching highlights that because of the way

841
00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:26,359
Speaker 2: Steve Sarkisian likes using running backs in the passing game.

842
00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:28,480
Speaker 2: You go back to Najie Harris and last year of

843
00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:31,400
Speaker 2: course with the duo of backs at Texas. If he

844
00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:34,400
Speaker 2: has soft hands, if he can run, you know a

845
00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:37,520
Speaker 2: few different routes. He might not just be a checkdown guy,

846
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:40,520
Speaker 2: but I could see him getting carries given the nature

847
00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:41,880
Speaker 2: of the room right now, so he would be the

848
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,040
Speaker 2: one on offense. They have a five star receiver in

849
00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:46,960
Speaker 2: John Tay Cook, but he seems a little bit smaller,

850
00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:49,800
Speaker 2: kind of a smaller slot guy and going after Ady Mitchell.

851
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:52,719
Speaker 2: I just I think he is probably going to be

852
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:55,759
Speaker 2: more developmental as he gets bigger. But you know, if

853
00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:57,760
Speaker 2: he is, if he is can't miss as a talent.

854
00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:00,520
Speaker 2: Size doesn't matter. They're just in a it seems to

855
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:03,200
Speaker 2: be with Jordan Whittington coming back in a better position

856
00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:06,080
Speaker 2: at receiver right now that they're not going to have to.

857
00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:11,120
Speaker 1: Rely on youth. Yeah. I mean, look, anyway you slice

858
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:14,000
Speaker 1: this up, the fact that they finished third is a

859
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:18,120
Speaker 1: pretty big deal. And you know, there was definitely an

860
00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:22,600
Speaker 1: emphasis here on key areas where they need to get better.

861
00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:27,200
Speaker 1: I love Anthony Hill. I have read all year about

862
00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:31,320
Speaker 1: Anthony Hill, and it feels to me like to your point,

863
00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:34,160
Speaker 1: he's somebody who could step in right away and make

864
00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:38,640
Speaker 1: a pretty big impact. Same deal with Cedric Baxter. The

865
00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:43,839
Speaker 1: size is there, obviously, the acclaim is there. At one

866
00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:48,640
Speaker 1: point I saw a comp to Joe Mixon. Okay, I

867
00:44:48,719 --> 00:44:53,160
Speaker 1: want to say taller for Cedric Baxter, which is obviously

868
00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:57,719
Speaker 1: a pretty good comp coming into college. So you know,

869
00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:02,239
Speaker 1: you just hope that Sark can cont ttinue organizing the

870
00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:05,600
Speaker 1: ship and in year three get things more on the

871
00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:06,960
Speaker 1: straight and narrow. Yeah.

872
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:09,680
Speaker 2: The other big name is Malik Muhammad, local to Dallas,

873
00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:13,120
Speaker 2: and given the success of Washington Corners with Pete Qwickowski

874
00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:17,160
Speaker 2: there and you know, really succeeding in that system has

875
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:18,719
Speaker 2: decent enough size. I don't know if he's going to

876
00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:21,000
Speaker 2: play a ton as a freshman with somebody in the

877
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:24,080
Speaker 2: next couple years. To keep you an eye on.

878
00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:25,560
Speaker 1: On next episode, it's going to be big ten and

879
00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:32,160
Speaker 1: Big ten adjacent heavy Notre Dame, Ohio State, Michigan, USC
