1
00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:13,800
Speaker 1: I know many of you are pet lovers, dog owners.

2
00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:15,640
Speaker 1: I've owned a dog a time or two in my life.

3
00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:17,960
Speaker 1: You ever tried to give a dog medicine? You're doing

4
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,400
Speaker 1: what's best for that dog. You know it. They don't

5
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:22,880
Speaker 1: know it. They fight you, They fight your ankle. What

6
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:24,639
Speaker 1: do you do? Do you stop? Do you yell at it?

7
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:24,799
Speaker 2: No?

8
00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:28,440
Speaker 1: You continue going for the greater good of your little

9
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:30,800
Speaker 1: furry friend. And that's all I'm trying to do with

10
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,080
Speaker 1: the G five. I'm Josh Pate. This is Late Kick.

11
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:35,839
Speaker 1: We are live high at top a tranquil downtown Nashville,

12
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 1: Tennessee tonight, much more tranquil than the back roads. Not

13
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 1: much wooded area, but back roads of Oklahoma. I was

14
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: storm chasing in yesterday. Tough times out there, especially Sulfur

15
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,239
Speaker 1: Oklahoma got really nailed. We were like five miles north

16
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,880
Speaker 1: of that storm when it went through. Thinking about you guys,

17
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 1: In due time, we will try and direct assistance your way.

18
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 1: But as for now, we got a college football show

19
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: to do. Sunday night, April twenty eighth, The Ye over

20
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 1: Lord twenty twenty four. Have star rankings been vindicated again?

21
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 1: I don't know if you heard, but the NFL Draft

22
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,959
Speaker 1: was over the weekend, and it always sends us a

23
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 1: sombering reminder that the crowd who yells star rankings don't

24
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 1: matter on signing Day are never anywhere to be found

25
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:18,039
Speaker 1: when the NFL Draft comes around. So I've got something

26
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 1: on that. I've got something on this whole G five

27
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 1: foolish nothingness that popped up involving yours truly over the weekend.

28
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:29,680
Speaker 1: Classic case of what I said versus what they heard

29
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 1: me say. Portal Intel. Yes, I saw that shark fin

30
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,760
Speaker 1: with a little Miami logo on it, just offshore and

31
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,960
Speaker 1: it has bitten a couple of times. Today we got that.

32
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 1: We got several other things checked out. The Oregon spring

33
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:44,959
Speaker 1: game checked out, the Nebraska spring game. Got things to

34
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: say there, people are throwing Bama and overrated around. We

35
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 1: got a whole grab bag of college football deliciousness. That

36
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 1: plus a very very big announcement regarding the ongoing gas

37
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 1: station wars and the recruitment of Pate State two said

38
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 1: gas stations that will be in tonight's show. We are

39
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 1: jam packed and they're watching us in Zebulin, North Carolina, Northport, Alabama, Urbana, Illinois. Yeah,

40
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 1: and Idaho falls Idaho, no sleep in over forty hours. Now,

41
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 1: look at the bloodshot nature of the eyes. If you're

42
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 1: listening on podcast, just picture someone who looks like they've

43
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 1: been wandering. That's basically what I've been doing. But if

44
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,080
Speaker 1: you thought we were canceling tonight's show just because I've

45
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 1: been chasing tornadoes and having gotten more than forty five

46
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 1: minutes sleep in forty four hours, you were wrong. Because

47
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 1: we've got too much to talk about at Lake Kick Josh,

48
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:37,920
Speaker 1: by the way, a lot of good storm chasing coverage yesterday.

49
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 1: I just don't have time to put it in tonight's show.

50
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 1: So let's dive into what we do have time for

51
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:46,799
Speaker 1: in tonight's show. Stars matter, and they matter a lot,

52
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: specifically star rankings and recruiting. You know how, you've got

53
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,639
Speaker 1: your buddy, or maybe you're the guy or girl who

54
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,239
Speaker 1: tries to sound like the most informed person in the room,

55
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,359
Speaker 1: and you try and you try and overthink the room,

56
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 1: and you try and say, star rankings don't matter. Some

57
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 1: kid commit somewhere normally to your rival five star linebacker. Oh,

58
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: star rankings don't matter. Stars do matter? Stars do? I

59
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: believe it was Andy Dufrain and Shawshank redemption that said

60
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,880
Speaker 1: star rankings were a good thing. Maybe the best of things.

61
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,240
Speaker 1: Colin is telling me that was hope. Hope was a

62
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: good thing, maybe the well, you know what, both apply.

63
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 1: I think tonight, especially both apply. Star rankings mean a

64
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 1: whole heck of a lot. You don't have to overthink

65
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 1: the room on this. The reason I speak so oh

66
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:34,640
Speaker 1: informed on this is I used to be that person.

67
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 1: I used to think star rankings are just a crapshoot.

68
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 1: Look at this three star. He started a decade in

69
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 1: the league. Now, obviously star rankings aren't the end all

70
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 1: be all accurate that line is still accurate. But they

71
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,839
Speaker 1: never throw that line at you. If you say star

72
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 1: rankings aren't the end all be all, I got no rebuttal.

73
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 1: But if you say star rankings mean nothing, I got

74
00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 1: a whole lot. There's a nice informative slider, for example,

75
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 1: on the screen right now if you're watching on YouTube,

76
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 1: that explains that twenty four to seven sports, for example,

77
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,119
Speaker 1: what a star ranking means. Let me dumb it down

78
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 1: for you in this way, because I have to dumb

79
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: it down for my own sake, not yours. What it's

80
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 1: always meant to me is it's always this kind of

81
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 1: raw talent based metric for trying to project how good

82
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 1: a guy is going to be while also categorizing how

83
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:23,280
Speaker 1: good he is in the here and now coming out

84
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 1: of high school. So there are things that that takes

85
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 1: into account, Hi, wait, explosiveness, accomplishments and whatnot. Where you played,

86
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,039
Speaker 1: maybe who you've been recruited by. But there are so

87
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,039
Speaker 1: many intangibles that go into this thing as well that

88
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,480
Speaker 1: it would be impossible to project. I don't care who

89
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 1: you are, I don't care what company you work for.

90
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 1: There is a slice of the evaluation pie that you

91
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,840
Speaker 1: don't even bother biting off of. How could you know

92
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 1: how a guy from the neck up mentally is going

93
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 1: to acclimate to college life. How do you know what

94
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 1: his injury concerns may be as a sophomore or a junior.

95
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:57,599
Speaker 1: So my point there is there's a lot that goes

96
00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 1: into whether you're going to be a first round draft

97
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 1: pick that no evaluator who's putting a star ranking on

98
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 1: you can possibly know. However, that's not what we're here

99
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 1: to talk about. There is a lot that people who

100
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 1: put star rankings on you as a sophomore in junior

101
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 1: in high school can know, and they're nailing it. They're

102
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 1: nailing it. I've been of the opinion for quite a

103
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:21,360
Speaker 1: while that the evaluation and rankings processes in high school

104
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 1: recruiting have never been more deadly accurate than they are now.

105
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:26,719
Speaker 1: And I believe that, and there are people doing good

106
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,720
Speaker 1: work at several companies out there that I think back

107
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,560
Speaker 1: that up. Let me just give you a very very

108
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: broad sampling of what the numbers just told us. Twenty

109
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 1: two of thirty two first round draft picks this year

110
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 1: were former blue chip guys. I'm just going by the

111
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 1: twenty four to seven Sports rankings. Pick whichever one you

112
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 1: want to, it's going to look pretty much the same.

113
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 1: Twenty two of thirty two first round draft picks this

114
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 1: year were blue chippers. That means former four star or

115
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 1: five star guys. Seven of them were five stars, fifteen

116
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 1: of them were four stars, nine were three stars, and

117
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 1: one was unranked. Our buddy Preston guy covers LSU. I

118
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: think he summed it up a great way. He put

119
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 1: out the numbers. Basically, here's what it amounted to if

120
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 1: you were a five star recruit in the twenty twenty class.

121
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 1: Let's say you were nine times more likely to go

122
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 1: in the first round than a four star recruit. If

123
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,360
Speaker 1: you were a five star recruit, you were eighty five

124
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: more times likely to go in the first round than

125
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 1: a three star recruit. Did anyone say three stars can't

126
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 1: go in the first round? Of course not nine of

127
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:32,479
Speaker 1: them just did. But there are infinitely more hundreds more

128
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:36,359
Speaker 1: three star rated recruits per cycle than there are five stars.

129
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,159
Speaker 1: We have thirty two of them per cycle here, and

130
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: so when you account for the amount of five stars

131
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 1: versus four stars versus three stars, then it starts to

132
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 1: really bear out an honest picture. And that picture is

133
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 1: it doesn't seem like it's such the crapshoot that a

134
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 1: lot of people make it out to be when you're

135
00:06:54,800 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 1: ranking high school kids. So before I move on, because

136
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 1: I've got a lot to say on this, trust me,

137
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 1: I did want to acknowledge one thing. There is one

138
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,479
Speaker 1: thing the draft bore out the other night, over the

139
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 1: over the course of three nights, really that I want

140
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 1: to take time. I want to change the tone of

141
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 1: my voice for a second hand over heart. I want

142
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 1: to acknowledge not the Big ten, but the Pac twelve.

143
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 1: Rest her soul the PAC twelve had the next most

144
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 1: draft picks by conference, behind the SEC this year at

145
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 1: forty three. What a way to go out. That's called

146
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 1: a blaze of glory. What a way to go out.

147
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 1: Oh man, It's just such a shame that that conference

148
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 1: couldn't sustain itself. I'm sure it had nothing to do

149
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 1: with inept year over year leadership. I'll look at the

150
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 1: PAC twelve on life support on the way out the door.

151
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 1: Well's that? Oh oh wait, I'm hearing they had forty

152
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 1: three draft picks, second only to the SEC. But yeah, absolutely,

153
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 1: let's let that conference fall into the Pacific Ocean. That's

154
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,560
Speaker 1: just the way the sport had to go. I guess

155
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 1: ten of twelve schools with the most draft picks were

156
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 1: Big ten and SEC schools now and moving forward. So

157
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 1: if that lets you know about competitive balance or lack

158
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: thereof in the future of the sport, then yeah, that's

159
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 1: probably a go to stat. Just a couple of more

160
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 1: noteworthy tidbits here in hand in hand. When I talk

161
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 1: about this thing with the NFL Draft every year, I

162
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 1: always love to go back in my mentions or go

163
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,119
Speaker 1: and listen to talk radio or any of a number

164
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 1: of other shows that guys do out there. You know,

165
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 1: SEC bias is an allegation that's thrown around a lot,

166
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:40,239
Speaker 1: and SEC bias at its core is simply an allegation

167
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 1: that someone with a microphone in this case me, is

168
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:47,080
Speaker 1: giving more coverage to the SEC than they deserve. They're

169
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 1: giving benefit of the doubt to the SEC that's not earned.

170
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 1: They're giving promotion to the SEC that they don't deserve,

171
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 1: or attention disproportionate to the rest of the country that

172
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 1: should not be divided up that way. And I've always

173
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 1: asked people when they say that, not do you feel

174
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,680
Speaker 1: that way? Obviously you feel that way. I've always asked,

175
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 1: do you think that's really true? They'll say yes, and

176
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 1: I'll say who all's in on it? And they'll say, well,

177
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:15,840
Speaker 1: the media, And I'll ask does that include thirty two

178
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,720
Speaker 1: NFL general managers? Because for the eighteenth year in a row,

179
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 1: the SEC also had the most first round draft picks

180
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 1: in the NFL. So it's not definitive proof. Trust me.

181
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 1: I got people in my life that are big into

182
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 1: conspiracy theories, and every time you think you have them nailed,

183
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 1: you find out it's like trying to nail jello to

184
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 1: the wall. So I'm sure I can present that to

185
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 1: someone and then find a way to wiggle around it.

186
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,320
Speaker 1: But it just is a pretty harsh indictment when you

187
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 1: have to face the idea that, according to the way

188
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,840
Speaker 1: you frame this, not only is the media in on

189
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 1: the whole SEC Bias conspiracy, the NFL is as well.

190
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:54,320
Speaker 1: And unlike me, I can make a prediction and it

191
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 1: doesn't matter if I'm right or wrong. I could come

192
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:58,200
Speaker 1: back and talk the next day and the lights in

193
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 1: the studio will be on and it'll be fine. I

194
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,319
Speaker 1: may get made fun of, but it'll be fine. If

195
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,080
Speaker 1: those guys lose, they lose their job. They can't afford

196
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 1: to be masquerading under the guys of sec bias with

197
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:10,439
Speaker 1: their draft picks, can they? And maybe they can, I

198
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 1: don't know. I'm not certainly not trying to present general

199
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 1: managers as infallible, because if you listened SEC Bias Alert,

200
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 1: if you listen to the way those folks anonymously talked

201
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 1: about Spencer Rattler over this past weekend, did you guys

202
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 1: hear that the whole we didn't like the way he

203
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 1: presented himself as Check's notes a high school kid in

204
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 1: a Netflix show. We just didn't like it. Hmm, what

205
00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 1: can I say about this. I've got immense respect for

206
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 1: NFL scouts. I talk to them every Saturday on the

207
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:45,960
Speaker 1: field before games. I love conversing with those guys. I

208
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,959
Speaker 1: get some great, great, great feedback from those guys. So

209
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 1: this is not a shot at them, mainly just the

210
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 1: ones I don't know. I think there are some incredibly

211
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 1: lazy narratives that just float around out there in the

212
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:03,439
Speaker 1: ecosystem period. But man, some of the laziest come from

213
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:08,520
Speaker 1: anonymous draft types in regards to college football players. And

214
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 1: it's like so obvious that you haven't you haven't paid attention.

215
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,080
Speaker 1: I'm not telling you Spencer Rattler is a perfect player.

216
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 1: I'm not telling you draft him in the first round.

217
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:20,720
Speaker 1: But if you had reasons not to draft him in first, second, third,

218
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,680
Speaker 1: fourth round, please give me something better than the show

219
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,440
Speaker 1: he was on on Netflix in high school. Dude, I

220
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,720
Speaker 1: thought Spencer Rattler acted like a punk back in the day.

221
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 1: That was my perception of him from the outside, and

222
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 1: I don't think that anymore. And it's not like I

223
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 1: know him on an intimate, like first person basis. I've

224
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 1: talked to him a couple of times I've covered him,

225
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 1: but I know a ton of people around him and

226
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 1: they all say the same thing. And I've observed him

227
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,839
Speaker 1: from afar. Dude, he doesn't feel the same to me

228
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 1: as he did back then. And what a crazy, crazy

229
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 1: environment we live in where in a seventeen year old

230
00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 1: kid could in fact mature between the ages of seventeen

231
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,040
Speaker 1: and twenty one, or however old he is now. Anyway,

232
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,839
Speaker 1: I didn't plan on talking about that tonight. But who

233
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:10,200
Speaker 1: the NFL draft, either in on the conspiracy or proving

234
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 1: the conspiracy is wrong. I'll let you decide. They are

235
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 1: watching us all over the place tonight. We appreciate you

236
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 1: guys so much. Just make sure you subscribe to the channel.

237
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 1: And like the video I was, I was storm chasing

238
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 1: yesterday and I don't have time to talk about it

239
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 1: again tonight, like I said, but you follow on Instagram

240
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:27,319
Speaker 1: at Lake Kick Josh. There was a lot of good

241
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 1: stuff there. It is a passion of mine. I do

242
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 1: it a lot in the spring, obviously, and I meet

243
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 1: people out on the road who I follow like I

244
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 1: follow them for atmospheric science purposes. I love storm chasing

245
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,120
Speaker 1: and it is wild when they want to come up

246
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 1: to me and say, oh, man, hey, I love your work. Well,

247
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 1: first off, it doesn't dawn on me that anyone in

248
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 1: that community is paying attention to me for college football.

249
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 1: And so I had several conversations at random gas stations yesterday.

250
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,800
Speaker 1: More on the gas stations later with stormchasers who I admire,

251
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 1: who are sitting there trying to prop up our work. Man,

252
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 1: we're just sitting here talking about college football. We're talking

253
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:05,679
Speaker 1: about folks putting their life on the line out there

254
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 1: and just occasionally letting me ride along in the back seat.

255
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 1: Hat tip Frankie and Zach. So it had a lot

256
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 1: of fun yesterday. And it's wild. I'll leave it at that.

257
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:20,679
Speaker 1: It's wild, as is the transfer portal. Transition baby, transition

258
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 1: to the transfer portal. Transfer portal is on fire, especially

259
00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:27,959
Speaker 1: for a certain university down south right now. So Miami

260
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:30,600
Speaker 1: has finally turned up the heat a little bit, as

261
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 1: we told you they would. Damian Martinez, that back to

262
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 1: back All Pac twelve guy, that two thousand yard rusher

263
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 1: over the past two seasons combined, he is not at

264
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,199
Speaker 1: Oregon State anymore, and he's not in the portal anymore.

265
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,960
Speaker 1: He is committed to Miami. Colin just dusted off. Remind

266
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 1: the folks what we said about this the other day.

267
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 1: They're gonna make moves at running back into Portal. I

268
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 1: told you that it's not a great fear of theirs

269
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,319
Speaker 1: that they lost a guy or two. They are about

270
00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:59,880
Speaker 1: to add a guy or two, so not much doubt there.

271
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:03,680
Speaker 1: And they've added a guy, and in the last hour

272
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 1: they've added a guy or two. This right here by

273
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 1: the way at running back from Miami is what they

274
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,200
Speaker 1: should have done last cycle, and I think they know

275
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,080
Speaker 1: it internally. I think they may have looked at that

276
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 1: room and there were some people inside the building that said,

277
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 1: we got Fletcher, we got Perish, like we got Cheney.

278
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 1: Those guys are good enough, and they were good enough,

279
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 1: but they weren't top end. They're not good enough to

280
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 1: go win the ACC with when you've got teams as

281
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 1: loaded as Florida State, or you got teams that are

282
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:36,000
Speaker 1: built like Clemson, and so I think they were adamant.

283
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,520
Speaker 1: We're not gonna make that mistake twice. Those are good players.

284
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 1: We're gonna go get really good to great players. Damian

285
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 1: Martinez is a really good to great player. Now you

286
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 1: start to combine that with the fact that they landed

287
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,760
Speaker 1: Dianni Hall. That's the corner out of Marshall and he

288
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 1: played under Gidrey, who's the DC down there now. He

289
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 1: played under him when he was at Marshall. Fift five tackles,

290
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 1: ten pass breakups last year. They got him. They got

291
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 1: Jalen Alderman. He's the linebacker out of Louisville. Started thirteen

292
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 1: games last year, fifty eight tackles last year. And in

293
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 1: the last hour, ding ding ding ding, breaking news. Remember

294
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 1: Sam Brown, that Houston wide receiver we were talking about

295
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 1: not in the portal anymore, lands at Miami. Here's essentially

296
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 1: what's happening. What's happening is Mario Landi cam Ward and

297
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 1: they realize they could make a legitimate playoff run with

298
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:22,960
Speaker 1: him this year. The rest of the world doesn't think

299
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 1: that because you think Miami's incapable of doing anything on

300
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:28,160
Speaker 1: the field because all they can do is recruit, and hey,

301
00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:31,160
Speaker 1: until they do it, fair criticism, you can think whatever

302
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 1: you want. What they think is we went and got

303
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 1: the best quarterback out of the portal. We may very

304
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 1: well have like one of the quarterbacks that's talked about

305
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 1: on Day one of the draft next year. Are we

306
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,720
Speaker 1: going to sit around and hope he can carry us

307
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:46,960
Speaker 1: or are we going to load up a team around him. Answer,

308
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,640
Speaker 1: We're gonna load up a team around him with a

309
00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 1: good old fashioned paper pop. So that's what they're doing.

310
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 1: It's pretty common sense that they were always going to

311
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 1: be ultra aggressive in this post spring portal window, and

312
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 1: this is it and may still not be done. We'll

313
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 1: see Dylan Edwards, the running back from Colorado, he's landed.

314
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 1: Talked about Kansas State as a possibility with him last

315
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 1: time we were on the show together, and yes, he

316
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 1: is committed to Kansas State. He played Pop Warner football

317
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,000
Speaker 1: with Avery Johnson. Like there are pictures, I mean, there's

318
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 1: photographic evidence of this floating around. Avery Johnson, of course,

319
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,400
Speaker 1: is the quarterback of Kansas State. Now I want you

320
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:24,440
Speaker 1: to consider this. This is the thing that pops in

321
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 1: my mind. Fit like, how get a fitter? You look

322
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 1: at that man, Colin and Jesse in there just spot on.

323
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 1: You talk about Pop Warner photos and ten seconds later

324
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,560
Speaker 1: there they are. We just have Avery Johnson, Dylan Edwards.

325
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 1: High school, not high school, leven, not even middle school.

326
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 1: Pop Warner b roll on the ready. What kind of

327
00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 1: licensing deal must we have for that. So I want

328
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 1: you to think about this. Johnson is incredibly mobile. He

329
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 1: is a big time threat with his legs at quarterback.

330
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 1: I think he ran for like nineteen touchdowns in his

331
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 1: debut against Texas Tech last year. Edwards out of the backfield,

332
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 1: really good pass catcher. So the versatility that they have

333
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 1: with those two guys on the field at the same

334
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,480
Speaker 1: time makes you think some special things can happen at

335
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:10,400
Speaker 1: Kansas State. And Connor Riley is the new OC there. Look,

336
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,639
Speaker 1: they got Giddins back to DJ Giddens is just there.

337
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:15,960
Speaker 1: Like as a running back, he had twelve hundred yards

338
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:20,080
Speaker 1: and ten touchdowns last year he returns, so they could

339
00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 1: be very very explosive and very versatile, very multifaceted, multi dimensioned,

340
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,840
Speaker 1: if you will. In the offensive backfield. DJ Waller is

341
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:33,399
Speaker 1: a safety that went from Michigan to Kentucky. Not an

342
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,000
Speaker 1: apples to apples comparison, but felt kind of like Brooks

343
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 1: at Texas in that he's a good player. He didn't

344
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,160
Speaker 1: have a ton of proof of performance as we would

345
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 1: call it. Last year. He got on the field some.

346
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,720
Speaker 1: He was a freshman defensive Player of the Week. I

347
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:48,679
Speaker 1: think like five times for them last year, but this

348
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,240
Speaker 1: was the year where they really wanted him to scale up.

349
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:55,439
Speaker 1: But he went through spring at Michigan and realized he

350
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:59,240
Speaker 1: probably didn't have a chokehold on a starting job, and

351
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:02,359
Speaker 1: so he goes out. And that's just a casualty of depth.

352
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:04,439
Speaker 1: I think that a lot of people are starting to

353
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 1: realize the overall depth that the elite teams in years

354
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:11,679
Speaker 1: past have been able to have will be eroded because

355
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 1: of the transfer portal. That just makes you more susceptible

356
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:18,040
Speaker 1: to injury. It does mean in the aggregate there is

357
00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:23,119
Speaker 1: a secondary and tertiary level of depth and soil, if

358
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,439
Speaker 1: you will, that's bolstered in the B and C tier teams.

359
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 1: That's stripped away on the A tier level. So the

360
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,200
Speaker 1: A tier guys will still have far more and far

361
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 1: higher level top line players than you. But whoever gets

362
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 1: hurt in September, there's a little bigger drop off position

363
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 1: room to position room than there used to be. Also,

364
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 1: j Fair was a wide receiver at Auburn and he's

365
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:48,399
Speaker 1: going to USC. Thirty one catches for three hundred and

366
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:52,360
Speaker 1: twenty four yards. Last year USC at wide receiver outside

367
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:57,400
Speaker 1: of a branch is not overly proven. They've got potential

368
00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:00,680
Speaker 1: in the room and that's about it, which is college football.

369
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:04,359
Speaker 1: So that's that way a lot. But Jayfair could be

370
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:06,800
Speaker 1: a guy who goes out there and does some big things.

371
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 1: They have Cam Coleman down at Auburn. They just got

372
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,679
Speaker 1: Caandre Lambert Smith, so it could be a move that

373
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,239
Speaker 1: was sort of a domino effect and reaction to that.

374
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:18,120
Speaker 1: But going to keep an eye on him too, really

375
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:23,000
Speaker 1: interested to see how he does. You know who else

376
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,680
Speaker 1: we keep an eye on teachers. We are a very

377
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 1: pro teachers show here. We are all the product of teachers.

378
00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:32,479
Speaker 1: In fact, I'm about to flex on you, and I

379
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,520
Speaker 1: promise it's not written anywhere. I'm about to flex on

380
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,639
Speaker 1: you how much I appreciate teachers in two ways. The

381
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:43,240
Speaker 1: first is our partner, Academy Sports and Outdoors, has just

382
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,920
Speaker 1: flat out stepped up and they're given all teachers ten

383
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,960
Speaker 1: percent off from now until May fifth. And by my calculations,

384
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:53,359
Speaker 1: it's April twenty eighth, seven nineteen in the PM, so

385
00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:56,040
Speaker 1: you guys got like a week to take advantage of this. Literally,

386
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 1: just bring your school ID to Academy Sports and Outdoors

387
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:01,400
Speaker 1: and go get whatever you want. I would say it's

388
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 1: on me. It's not on me. The ten percent discounts

389
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:06,080
Speaker 1: on me. And you don't even need to use promo code.

390
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:10,960
Speaker 1: Just use your school ID equipment like outdoor gear, footwear

391
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:15,680
Speaker 1: apparel of all kinds, and recreational equipment of all kinds.

392
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:17,679
Speaker 1: Go get it from them. And if you're a teacher,

393
00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:19,600
Speaker 1: enjoy the tem percent discount. Hey, even if you're not

394
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:22,560
Speaker 1: go there anyway, you know ten percent or not go

395
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:24,640
Speaker 1: there anyway. I said I was gonna flex. You want

396
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 1: to know how much I love teachers. Colin and Jesse

397
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:33,639
Speaker 1: watched this. Your boy here. His sixth grade schedule at

398
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:38,240
Speaker 1: Harris County Carver Middle School was Langer, Johnson, Hogg, Johnson, Langer, Langer,

399
00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:42,360
Speaker 1: Newman chain locker combination was thirty two eighteen thirty six.

400
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:47,240
Speaker 1: By the way, I'm not totally sure what I had

401
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 1: for lunch two days ago, but I do remember every

402
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,720
Speaker 1: teacher I had in sixth grade in my locker combination

403
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 1: four sixteen eight and seventh grade eight twelve zero in

404
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 1: eighth grade. So yes, we appreciate teachers, and so does academy.

405
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,159
Speaker 1: Go get your tempers. You've deserved it, you've earned it.

406
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,879
Speaker 1: Go get your tempercent off. Let's move along. As fun

407
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 1: and as heartwarming as that was, it's time to go

408
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 1: cut throat here. It's time to get real. It's time

409
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:15,280
Speaker 1: to get serious. And I'm not throwing down a gauntlet,

410
00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:17,639
Speaker 1: but a gauntlet's been thrown down and I'm just responding

411
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:21,359
Speaker 1: to it. Why do I even try with G five fans?

412
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:25,639
Speaker 1: I sometimes ask myself. I think that many of you,

413
00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: like I said at the top of the show, are

414
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:30,760
Speaker 1: pet owners. You know what it's like when that pet

415
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,840
Speaker 1: needs his medicine. That pet doesn't know it needs its medicine.

416
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 1: It doesn't know that You're trying to do what's best

417
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 1: for it, and you try and feed it, and you

418
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:40,439
Speaker 1: try and hide it in the food, or maybe it

419
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:43,160
Speaker 1: comes in syringe form, and it's jumping and it's trying

420
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:44,800
Speaker 1: to run away from you, is trying to gnaw at

421
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 1: your ankle, anything to not do what it doesn't want

422
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,439
Speaker 1: to do, but it's in its best interest. There are

423
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,399
Speaker 1: G five fans out there who would swear to you

424
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 1: up and down, left and right that a G five

425
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,159
Speaker 1: playoff would be the worst thing to ever happen to

426
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,680
Speaker 1: G five teams. And I'm sitting here thinking to myself,

427
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:04,439
Speaker 1: take your medicine. This is for your own good. So

428
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:06,680
Speaker 1: they're up in arms. Some of them are really mad

429
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,679
Speaker 1: at me because I had the audacity to suggest that

430
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:14,919
Speaker 1: there are gulfs in resource in this sport, and the

431
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:19,400
Speaker 1: Alabamas and Georgia's and Florida's and Ohio states and USC's

432
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 1: and Organs of the world are operating at a different

433
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,440
Speaker 1: level than the coastal Carolinas and Utsa's in South Alabama's.

434
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:29,879
Speaker 1: And I said, instead of pretending they're all playing the

435
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:33,480
Speaker 1: same sport, one hundred and thirty plus of them, why

436
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:36,199
Speaker 1: would we not have common sense and long ago have

437
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:41,680
Speaker 1: created different tiers of playoff, Like, that's so common sense

438
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 1: to me. You go in the state of Texas, there's

439
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 1: six a ball and five a ball and four a

440
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,159
Speaker 1: But how do they decide that? Is it just like

441
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 1: a game of bingo? Do you just pull the ping

442
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 1: pong ball out any given year and find out where

443
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:54,680
Speaker 1: Cadie High School is going to play in the state

444
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:58,520
Speaker 1: of Texas. No, it's normally determined by resource fmen this case,

445
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 1: enrollment size. It makes total sense. And it doesn't mean

446
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 1: a three A team can't beat a five A team,

447
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,200
Speaker 1: But they don't make them compete in the same postseason

448
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:09,159
Speaker 1: because it makes no sense because one group is at

449
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,959
Speaker 1: a disproportionate advantage to another group. We figured that out

450
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:15,960
Speaker 1: in high school. College. Absolutely not throw logic in a blender.

451
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:19,280
Speaker 1: So here's the problem. The problem is not that the

452
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 1: logic is unsound. The problem is the Internet has no

453
00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 1: interest in logic. In the world of the Internet, in

454
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:29,240
Speaker 1: the world of the socials, people are largely interested in

455
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 1: trafficking in sound bites and like screenshots. And so I

456
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:35,600
Speaker 1: can go on this show, for example, and I can

457
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,160
Speaker 1: say something that I think is pretty well thought out,

458
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,840
Speaker 1: like there are differences in resource pools in this sport.

459
00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:45,920
Speaker 1: Maybe teams and programs with comparable resource pools should compete

460
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:50,680
Speaker 1: in their own postseason instead of us just shoehorning everyone

461
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,520
Speaker 1: into one playoff that we all know eighty percent of

462
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 1: the sport could never win. Ever, I could say that,

463
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 1: and Randos on the Internet could take it and turn

464
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:05,919
Speaker 1: it into this. I've always thought it was one of

465
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:10,520
Speaker 1: the most mind numbingly ignorant concepts imaginable to pretend that

466
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:14,520
Speaker 1: South Alabama is playing the same sport as the University

467
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:20,280
Speaker 1: of Alabama. Lodge twenty eighty nine. But that's what we

468
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:24,159
Speaker 1: were forced to swallow as logic, and South Alabama is

469
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 1: chasing the same championship theoretically that the University of Alabama is.

470
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 1: It's off the upright. So if you're listening on podcasts,

471
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:40,520
Speaker 1: here's essentially what happened. I said, they're not playing the

472
00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 1: same sport because they're working at far different platforms resource wise.

473
00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:50,679
Speaker 1: Some rando out there took footage of G five teams

474
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 1: pulling upsets over very mediocre Power five teams in random years,

475
00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:59,200
Speaker 1: and I guess used that as evidence I was wrong.

476
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:01,320
Speaker 1: It wasn't the flex they thought it was. I can

477
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:04,439
Speaker 1: promise you that. But that's what the internet did to

478
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:07,200
Speaker 1: that point. Okay, So here's what I have come to realize.

479
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 1: I have come to realize that it is very possible

480
00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,680
Speaker 1: to disagree with something I say. Of course you can

481
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:18,280
Speaker 1: do that. What I have found is ninety plus percent

482
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,639
Speaker 1: of people who publicly disagree with something said on this

483
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:25,639
Speaker 1: show didn't watch the show. They were exposed to the

484
00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 1: show either on a message board post which probably took

485
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:32,440
Speaker 1: something out of context, or a random out of context

486
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:36,119
Speaker 1: clip on one of the social platforms. They never went

487
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:39,639
Speaker 1: and did their own research that leads to questions like

488
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:41,720
Speaker 1: the one Colin, Just show Colin throw that up again.

489
00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:44,600
Speaker 1: This is one of the replies that kept getting forwarded

490
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:47,200
Speaker 1: to me over the weekend. It said, it's a guy

491
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 1: named Josh as well, do better? Josh do better? He said,

492
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:53,760
Speaker 1: is Josh pit the official number one enemy of the

493
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 1: G five? If anyone goes to any of these G

494
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,120
Speaker 1: five schools, I can guarantee you you'll have a good time.

495
00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:00,480
Speaker 1: It just keeps on going to keep so I'm going

496
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,240
Speaker 1: are you waiting on me to disagree with this? You

497
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,520
Speaker 1: know what? I prepared a helpful post it. It's on

498
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:11,320
Speaker 1: my index finger here post it popped Josh and people

499
00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:15,080
Speaker 1: of Josh's ilk. Here's what you will never hear me say.

500
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,560
Speaker 1: The G five can't beat of the P five. They

501
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 1: do it all the time. The G five doesn't deserve

502
00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:25,560
Speaker 1: a playoff, Yes they do. I'm actually telling you they

503
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:29,880
Speaker 1: deserve their own playoff. The G five isn't fun to watch. Ful.

504
00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,880
Speaker 1: This is where I get a little heated. I would

505
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:36,119
Speaker 1: venture to guess I watch more G five football than

506
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,520
Speaker 1: ninety percent of the folks out there who accuse me

507
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 1: of hating the G five. That right, there is an

508
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:44,040
Speaker 1: opinion that I'm pretty sure is a fact. I love

509
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:49,239
Speaker 1: G five football. I'm advocating for its growth. We have

510
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:54,320
Speaker 1: a situation right now where I want what's best for

511
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,760
Speaker 1: the G five as a whole, and people are pushing

512
00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:01,600
Speaker 1: back on that because essentially, Guy and suits have brainwashed

513
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 1: you into doing their pr for them. The commissioners of

514
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:08,879
Speaker 1: these conferences, the university presidents of these teams in the

515
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:11,919
Speaker 1: G five, they love cashing the check and they have

516
00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 1: come to depend on cashing the check that comes from

517
00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:18,840
Speaker 1: being affiliated and associated with the college Football Playoff as

518
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 1: is currently constructed. And look, they may not be able

519
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:23,679
Speaker 1: to be weaned off of it at this point, but

520
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:26,960
Speaker 1: you don't get that money. If you're a Troy fan,

521
00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:29,760
Speaker 1: you don't ever see a dime of that money. And yet,

522
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:33,560
Speaker 1: somewhere along the way, you let those folks thirty eight

523
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 1: floors off the ground in Manhattan convince you to do

524
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,960
Speaker 1: their bidding for them. Oh, we have to have inclusion,

525
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:43,800
Speaker 1: We have to have a shot. You've got access to

526
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:47,639
Speaker 1: an eight lane freeway that goes off a cliff in

527
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,560
Speaker 1: lieu of having access to a nice four lane highway

528
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,760
Speaker 1: that goes somewhere. I'm the one sitting here saying, don't

529
00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:57,760
Speaker 1: you want access to the four lane, modest but four

530
00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 1: lane highway that goes somewhere And you're like, no, no, no,

531
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:02,760
Speaker 1: give us the freeway. We don't care that it goes

532
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:05,200
Speaker 1: off the cliff. We don't care that there's no world

533
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:10,520
Speaker 1: where we'd ever win this postseason. We deserve inclusion. Why well,

534
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 1: because we just do? Why well? You just don't understand

535
00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:18,920
Speaker 1: the G five culture. If that's how you think, you're right,

536
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:21,960
Speaker 1: I don't understand that. I may get it, I could

537
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,359
Speaker 1: articulate it to you, but I don't understand it. So

538
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:28,080
Speaker 1: I am normally very fluffy with these sorts of things,

539
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:30,200
Speaker 1: but it's time for someone to deal in some fact.

540
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 1: So Rando's out there. You wanted to make your videos

541
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:36,919
Speaker 1: where you cherry picked exceptions to rules, how about I

542
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,400
Speaker 1: use your own logic. I don't even think this is

543
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:42,920
Speaker 1: how we should go about this, a paper poppet for

544
00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:45,720
Speaker 1: your own good. If you do want to use the

545
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 1: concept of just how the G five does against the

546
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:50,920
Speaker 1: Power five, you guys are ninety three and three hundred

547
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 1: and fifty one against Power five teams the past few years,

548
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 1: and most of that was non sec and Big Ten.

549
00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:00,400
Speaker 1: When I filter it even further, filter, filter, filter. The

550
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 1: G five is twenty six and one hundred and eighty

551
00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 1: against SEC and Big ten teams, and those are the

552
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:11,800
Speaker 1: bad ones. Now you've got to beat three or four

553
00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:14,440
Speaker 1: of them to win a national championship. Josh, it's not

554
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 1: about winning a championship, it's about access. How stupid is that?

555
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 1: How ignorant is that? Again? The only people that benefits,

556
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:28,840
Speaker 1: the only people championing access and inclusion to a massive

557
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 1: college football playoff you've gotten no shot of winning, benefits

558
00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,160
Speaker 1: is the people with the pockets that the money will

559
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 1: go into. It doesn't benefit you. You're advocating, quite literally, to

560
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:41,200
Speaker 1: have access to the eight lane freeway that goes off

561
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 1: the cliff in lieu of having access to the highway

562
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 1: that could go somewhere for you. If you do develop players,

563
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 1: by the way, in the modern age, if you do

564
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:53,520
Speaker 1: do a good job of developing players, you get gutted.

565
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,920
Speaker 1: How many guys that start right now are leaving these

566
00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 1: Power five schools to go to the G five ranks

567
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 1: because it's working in the inverse direction. A whole heck

568
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:04,600
Speaker 1: of a lot the guys who can't start at that

569
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,280
Speaker 1: level are coming to play for you. The G five

570
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:11,600
Speaker 1: had eighteen draft picks. Out of sixty two teams. The

571
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 1: G five just had eighteen draft picks. Michigan and Washington

572
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,440
Speaker 1: alone had twenty three. Just the teams that play in

573
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 1: the National Championship had more draft picks this past draft

574
00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 1: than the entirety of the G five. You don't have

575
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 1: as much money as them, you don't have as large

576
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 1: a fan base as most of them. You've got fractionally

577
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:31,560
Speaker 1: sized stadiums. You don't have as good a football player

578
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 1: on average as they do. That's why I think it's

579
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,480
Speaker 1: dumb that one hundred and thirty plus teams are thrown

580
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:40,040
Speaker 1: in the same postseason. It makes no sense. You think

581
00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:42,440
Speaker 1: I'm taking a shot at you. You think I'm saying

582
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,760
Speaker 1: you're lesser than you don't matter, you shouldn't be included.

583
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:49,400
Speaker 1: I'm telling you. It's apples to bowling balls. I'm telling you,

584
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:52,840
Speaker 1: I'll say it again. To pretend South Alabama and the

585
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:56,000
Speaker 1: University of Alabama play the same sport is mind boggling.

586
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:59,239
Speaker 1: It's dumb. If the alien were to show up and

587
00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:01,520
Speaker 1: we use him to consult from time to time, and

588
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:06,920
Speaker 1: he showed up, he would say, which translates to why

589
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 1: is South Alabama trying to be included in the college

590
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 1: football playoff? Do they know they have no shot of

591
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:15,640
Speaker 1: winning that? Yes, they do. They want inclusion anyway. Why

592
00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:20,080
Speaker 1: because it sends a message or cause anything can happen.

593
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 1: No it can't, No it can't. I'm telling you a

594
00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:26,400
Speaker 1: million times out of a million, you simulate it. G

595
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 1: five teams aren't winning the playoff. So I don't know

596
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:34,200
Speaker 1: what kind of moral quest. I don't know what kind

597
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,640
Speaker 1: of greater good you think this is serving. It's not,

598
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 1: it's not. And look, even now, the only reason Dennis

599
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:42,880
Speaker 1: Dodd was able to write that article the other day,

600
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:47,280
Speaker 1: the only reason why anyone even now is entertaining a

601
00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 1: G five only playoff is not for the right reasons.

602
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:52,480
Speaker 1: It's not for the logical, common sense reasons. It's because

603
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 1: the revenue disparity is getting too big, and so they're

604
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:56,720
Speaker 1: finally looking around saying, all right, well, if this is

605
00:31:56,760 --> 00:32:00,600
Speaker 1: not a financial windfall for us, that removes our motivation

606
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,280
Speaker 1: for trying to be included. Did you notice that, by

607
00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 1: the way, everyone out there, legitimate fans of these programs

608
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,680
Speaker 1: who've been brainwashed and had the wool pulled over your

609
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:12,800
Speaker 1: eyes by these folks. Once they realized there was no

610
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:14,920
Speaker 1: more money in it for them, they were quick to

611
00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:16,640
Speaker 1: throw their hands up and say, oh shit, this makes

612
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 1: no sense. Screw it. It was never about inclusion. It

613
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:22,760
Speaker 1: was never about what they got you to claim. It

614
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 1: was about you don't have to be a sheep for

615
00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:30,840
Speaker 1: these people. M m mm if you want to to

616
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:34,280
Speaker 1: your own drum, not theirs. They're watching us in Auburn, Alabama.

617
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,760
Speaker 1: They're watching us in Pacific Palisades, California, and Avon, Indiana.

618
00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:43,200
Speaker 1: It's just so dumb, man. It is so I don't know.

619
00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:46,000
Speaker 1: It is April. I guess we don't have anything better

620
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,080
Speaker 1: to talk about. And I can't wait to see how

621
00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:52,800
Speaker 1: the internet handles that one. As Jesse said today, if

622
00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:54,920
Speaker 1: you have enough time and editing software on your hands,

623
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 1: you can make anyone sound like anything. All right. I

624
00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 1: have got a very very important guest War's update coming up.

625
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:03,720
Speaker 1: But first, I did watch a couple of Spring games.

626
00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 1: I did, yes, and I've got some takeaways. Oregon had

627
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 1: their Spring game yesterday. When I watched Spring games, I

628
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:13,280
Speaker 1: always want to see synergy in the passing game or

629
00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:15,440
Speaker 1: just offensively. I want to know, even if it's just

630
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:17,840
Speaker 1: one or two plays, what's the thing or what are

631
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:19,640
Speaker 1: the things that happen that stick with me in my

632
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:23,360
Speaker 1: mind the entire summer and Dylan Gabriel to Test Johnson,

633
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 1: It'll stick with me. They got Test Johnson involved really early.

634
00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 1: Dylan Gabriel's is up there now, the former quarterback at Oklahoma,

635
00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:34,480
Speaker 1: and so that right there, I think will be obviously

636
00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:36,400
Speaker 1: a focal point of their passing game this fall. And

637
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:38,720
Speaker 1: Gabriel was fourteen of twenty one, one hundred and sixty

638
00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 1: three two touchdowns, So that stuck with me. Their offensive

639
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:44,760
Speaker 1: line on the left side especially kind of got worked

640
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:49,720
Speaker 1: most of the day, which is spring game, rinse and repeat,

641
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:51,960
Speaker 1: like one side is going to take advantage of the

642
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:53,600
Speaker 1: other side. And so do you feel good about it?

643
00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 1: As a fan? Do you feel bad about it? I'd

644
00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:57,800
Speaker 1: feel good about the versatility and depth they have on

645
00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:01,040
Speaker 1: their defensive front. I don't know that I would be

646
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:03,960
Speaker 1: ready to sound the alarm binding stretch for Oregon offensively.

647
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:06,920
Speaker 1: I mean, did we have their true starting five out there?

648
00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:10,960
Speaker 1: I'm not so sure they did. Is the defensive line good? Yes,

649
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:14,200
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure they are. Am I just blindly leaning

650
00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:16,399
Speaker 1: into benefit of the doubt because it's a spring game. Yes,

651
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:19,239
Speaker 1: I am. I saw several of their freshmen. I saw

652
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:22,680
Speaker 1: several of their underclassmen, including several freshmen playing yesterday. Solomon

653
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:27,359
Speaker 1: Davis had seven tackles yesterday. I think the Flowers kid,

654
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:30,040
Speaker 1: the four star safety in the twenty twenty four class,

655
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:32,799
Speaker 1: he stood out to me. Dakota Fields was a four

656
00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:35,480
Speaker 1: star dB as well. He stood out to me. They're

657
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:40,359
Speaker 1: deep at wide receiver, they're deep at running back. That's

658
00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:43,879
Speaker 1: not a surprise. What cost Oregon twice last year when

659
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,919
Speaker 1: it came down to it is they counted on being

660
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:49,560
Speaker 1: able to out physical Washington and they went over to

661
00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:52,319
Speaker 1: trying to do that. They didn't lack talent last year.

662
00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 1: They won't lack talent this year. There's an edge you

663
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,880
Speaker 1: have to have as a program to show up in

664
00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:00,040
Speaker 1: those kinds of games. There's an edge don't need to

665
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:04,719
Speaker 1: having big ten play several times this season that they

666
00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:08,960
Speaker 1: had almost enough of but knew they still needed to

667
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:12,759
Speaker 1: sharpen after last year. That's the great unknown. That's not

668
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,839
Speaker 1: something you would discover in a spring game. And so

669
00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 1: that's why God made the spring, and that's why God

670
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:23,520
Speaker 1: gives us fall camp and eventually that over under ten

671
00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:26,000
Speaker 1: and a half win season will roll around. They are

672
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,839
Speaker 1: minus two ten to make the playoff. If you want

673
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,319
Speaker 1: to just go to FanDuel and bet whether Oregon will

674
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:34,080
Speaker 1: make the playoff. If you think yes, minus two ten.

675
00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:36,480
Speaker 1: So our friends at FanDuel think Oregon's got a really

676
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:38,040
Speaker 1: really good shot of being in that playoff. You know,

677
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:40,320
Speaker 1: Ohio State goes up there, Colin, could you do me

678
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:42,200
Speaker 1: a favorite? Could you put their schedule back up for

679
00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 1: a second. Think about October twelfth, Think about Ohio State

680
00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:53,480
Speaker 1: going on the road to Eugene, Oregon, and it's a

681
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:59,439
Speaker 1: conference game. We call these goosies, these things, these little

682
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:01,680
Speaker 1: bumps on them arm Right now, I'm not ready to

683
00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:03,920
Speaker 1: commit to where the tour is going to be that

684
00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:06,080
Speaker 1: weekend this fall, because I'm not even ready to commit

685
00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:07,480
Speaker 1: what the name of the tour is going to be

686
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:09,880
Speaker 1: this fall. But buddy, you have the number one and

687
00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:13,239
Speaker 1: number two odds teams to win the Big Ten Championship

688
00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:18,640
Speaker 1: playing in a prime time most likely primetime game there.

689
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:23,759
Speaker 1: I could see myself there. It's a soft verbal that

690
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:27,000
Speaker 1: I'll be there. Okay, you know it's a good it's

691
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:28,560
Speaker 1: a good way to end that, and it's a great

692
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:32,279
Speaker 1: way to roll into what I'm about to talk about this.

693
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:36,680
Speaker 1: This is worth a pop of the knuckle. I'm just

694
00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:39,600
Speaker 1: gonna be real with you, guys. I think it's insane

695
00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:41,800
Speaker 1: that we don't have a gas station as a partner

696
00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:46,640
Speaker 1: on this show. I don't like going with fancy fashion

697
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:50,200
Speaker 1: type advertising partners cause I wear a white T shirt

698
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:53,239
Speaker 1: every week. Okay, we probably won't be in business with

699
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:57,359
Speaker 1: like Rolls Royce anytime soon. It's just not how we

700
00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:00,319
Speaker 1: roll as a people. If you do, hey, more power

701
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:03,319
Speaker 1: to you. But we are a much more I know

702
00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:05,640
Speaker 1: my collar's white right now, but we are a blue

703
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,399
Speaker 1: collar show. I was at Nielands Stadium the other day

704
00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,160
Speaker 1: and the first person that noticed me when I was

705
00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:13,959
Speaker 1: walking around was a guy working on the construction crew.

706
00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:16,880
Speaker 1: Because that's our show. We are a show of the

707
00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:20,800
Speaker 1: construction worker and the truck driver and guys that you know. Actually,

708
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:23,680
Speaker 1: if you look at their fingernails, there could be some

709
00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:26,920
Speaker 1: dirt under there. There could be people who know what

710
00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:29,160
Speaker 1: it's like to wipe sweat off their brow every now

711
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,840
Speaker 1: and then throughout any given week. So with that in mind,

712
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 1: I go to BUCkies a lot. Love's most recently Quick Trip.

713
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:41,279
Speaker 1: I've been having little fun with those guys, and it's

714
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:43,959
Speaker 1: mainly been on social but it's bled into the show

715
00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:47,799
Speaker 1: a time or two. So, as you probably know, Quick

716
00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:51,839
Speaker 1: Trip's been making a big move and Love's found out

717
00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:54,480
Speaker 1: about it, and so Loves came after me very heavily

718
00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:57,560
Speaker 1: last week. I consider myself uncommitted to gas stations right now.

719
00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:00,680
Speaker 1: I am being recruited, and Love came after me, and

720
00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:03,680
Speaker 1: I was in Oklahoma all day yesterday, and so I

721
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 1: took my official visit to Loves and it went really well,

722
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:11,160
Speaker 1: so well that Quick Trip had to respond, and for

723
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:16,160
Speaker 1: the first time exclusively on tonight's show, I am ready

724
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 1: to share with you Quick Trips response. Oh big update,

725
00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:21,799
Speaker 1: all right, follow me.

726
00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:26,560
Speaker 2: So gas station Wars continued, state, my recruitment's getting really hot.

727
00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:29,799
Speaker 2: I went the Loves yesterday storm chasing. They showed us

728
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:32,320
Speaker 2: a good time. Quick Trip has responded.

729
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:35,600
Speaker 1: We got seeds, we got all different kinds of trail,

730
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:39,759
Speaker 1: makes really really good merch. Got some jerky options here.

731
00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:42,640
Speaker 2: It just goes and goes and goes and goes and

732
00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:45,640
Speaker 2: goes and goes and goes and goes.

733
00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:47,160
Speaker 1: That's not the best part.

734
00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:53,960
Speaker 2: The best part is personalization is key, Boila. Frankly, what

735
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:55,879
Speaker 2: this says is going to stay between me and them.

736
00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:58,000
Speaker 2: You need to respect my decision on that. But what

737
00:38:58,040 --> 00:38:59,880
Speaker 2: you do need to know, and what is public, is

738
00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:02,719
Speaker 2: the pay state. Crystal Ball, as you can see, has

739
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:05,560
Speaker 2: now shifted heavily in favor of quick trips sixty five

740
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:07,640
Speaker 2: percent lean to just thirty percent for loves and this

741
00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:08,800
Speaker 2: has chasings yesterday.

742
00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:12,960
Speaker 1: Bucky is holding not at five percent. But where you at, BUCkies?

743
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:13,920
Speaker 1: Where are you guys.

744
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:15,240
Speaker 2: At more to come.

745
00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:21,239
Speaker 1: An entire nation on edge awaits a decision. I don't

746
00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:24,000
Speaker 1: have a timeline. I do ask that you respect my

747
00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:28,759
Speaker 1: decision when the time comes. But everybody's still in this

748
00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:31,319
Speaker 1: and you know what cases you know, if you guys

749
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:33,960
Speaker 1: are out there listening, it's not too late. It's not

750
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:37,800
Speaker 1: too late. Okay, I'm very very open to entertaining offers.

751
00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:40,080
Speaker 1: But let me just talk straight with you guys for

752
00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:45,000
Speaker 1: just a second. Somebody in the ad and marketing departments

753
00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:47,480
Speaker 1: at one of these places is going to be smart

754
00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:50,279
Speaker 1: enough to enter into an exclusive partnership with us. We're

755
00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:52,719
Speaker 1: on a temporary set right now because we're building a

756
00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:55,560
Speaker 1: new studio. When that bad boy debuts in the fall,

757
00:39:56,000 --> 00:40:01,120
Speaker 1: and someone's signage is on those bright floor to LEDs

758
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:04,520
Speaker 1: and your front and center on the most consumed college

759
00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:08,239
Speaker 1: football show in the world of digital media. Someone's gonna

760
00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:13,759
Speaker 1: look like a genius. Let that genius be you. Let's continue.

761
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:17,359
Speaker 1: The University of Nebraska had their spring game yesterday, as

762
00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:21,200
Speaker 1: year two under Matt Rule gets underway. I was storm

763
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:25,640
Speaker 1: chasing yesterday in Oklahoma, and yet I had two things

764
00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:28,480
Speaker 1: going off on my phone. I had tornado warnings and

765
00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 1: I had text about Dylan Roola, so I knew something

766
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:34,120
Speaker 1: had happened. And it was a touchdown of like a

767
00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:37,360
Speaker 1: different variety. And they've had multiple kinds of touchdowns on

768
00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:39,759
Speaker 1: Lincoln over the past seventy two hours, by the way,

769
00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:42,560
Speaker 1: so Dylan Royola kind of goes off. He's the true

770
00:40:42,600 --> 00:40:44,760
Speaker 1: freshman there. He was committed to Georgia for a long time.

771
00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:48,319
Speaker 1: Nebraska got him. It was a huge deal, and then

772
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 1: a bunch of people said stars don't matter, and he

773
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:52,840
Speaker 1: hasn't played a game yet, so it's not like I

774
00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:56,279
Speaker 1: can refute that he's a really good player, though, and

775
00:40:56,320 --> 00:41:00,959
Speaker 1: he had some big pop plays yesterday. This is the recipe,

776
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:04,000
Speaker 1: this is the fuel for a hype train. This is

777
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,200
Speaker 1: how it works. Take it from me. I know trains.

778
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:10,640
Speaker 1: This is how they operate. You've got diesel, and you've

779
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:14,480
Speaker 1: got ethanol, and then you've got what he did yesterday.

780
00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:16,600
Speaker 1: That is the kind of fuel that can make a

781
00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:19,160
Speaker 1: hype train run away early. So let's be careful. Let's

782
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:21,880
Speaker 1: be cautious. Okay, let's make sure not to jump on

783
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:23,880
Speaker 1: that thing too early. He was sixteen to twenty two,

784
00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:26,520
Speaker 1: two hundred and thirty nine yards and two touchdowns. Their

785
00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:30,160
Speaker 1: overall quarterback rooms improved, though, if you watch this game

786
00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:32,600
Speaker 1: and then you compare it to what they were last year.

787
00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,719
Speaker 1: Even Heinrich Harberg looked good. He's been there for a

788
00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:38,920
Speaker 1: couple of years. But they were dead last and turnovers

789
00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:43,240
Speaker 1: committed last year. Their offensive numbers were terrible. They wasted

790
00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 1: a pretty good defense last year. And Glenn Thomas is

791
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:47,880
Speaker 1: there and now he's the quarterbacks coach. He worked with

792
00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:50,600
Speaker 1: rule at Temple and Baylor, so I'm excited to see

793
00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:52,840
Speaker 1: what he's already doing and what he can do with

794
00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:57,840
Speaker 1: Dylan Royola. But improved quarterback play and improved wide receiver play,

795
00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:02,400
Speaker 1: the wide receiver room may be the best, may be

796
00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:06,440
Speaker 1: the deepest on the team. Again, it's spring, so I

797
00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:08,320
Speaker 1: really want to talk in a way that gives me

798
00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:10,920
Speaker 1: an exit door if this thing doesn't pan out. But

799
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:15,120
Speaker 1: guys yesterday that look good. The Barney kid, Jacoory Barney,

800
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,160
Speaker 1: it's a true freshman from down in Miami's a three

801
00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:20,320
Speaker 1: star guy. He looked good like. It's a legit deep

802
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:22,759
Speaker 1: threat guy. I don't know how good he is at

803
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:24,399
Speaker 1: the top of his stem on route running. I don't

804
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:27,319
Speaker 1: know how good his hands are, but if he's even

805
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:30,800
Speaker 1: moderate to successful in those categories, he's got the speed,

806
00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:34,680
Speaker 1: he's got the deep threat. They had some good looking

807
00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:37,879
Speaker 1: players in that wide receiver room, so and a couple

808
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:41,040
Speaker 1: of the guys that are going to be just rotational

809
00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:45,440
Speaker 1: mainstays this fall were really limited yesterday. Coleman didn't do

810
00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:47,879
Speaker 1: a whole lot Banks, was you sparingly? I don't think

811
00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:52,120
Speaker 1: Coleman played at all. So offense has the ingredients. Defense

812
00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:55,680
Speaker 1: will not be in doubt there. Nebraska. I don't know

813
00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:57,160
Speaker 1: if they're going to make a big jump. I know

814
00:42:57,280 --> 00:42:59,920
Speaker 1: that they have some of the pieces there that we

815
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:02,080
Speaker 1: hope they would have their over underwin total at FanDuel

816
00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:05,759
Speaker 1: seven and a half wins this year. Demetrius Bell. This

817
00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:08,719
Speaker 1: is where it gets bad. Demetrius Bell's a red shirt

818
00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:11,120
Speaker 1: freshman wide receiver. He went down with a knee injury.

819
00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:14,680
Speaker 1: Rule called that a significant knee injury. I don't have

820
00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:18,000
Speaker 1: anything more on that today. Blig Hill is probably a

821
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:19,719
Speaker 1: guy who was in line to start at one of

822
00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:22,719
Speaker 1: their corner spots. He went down and rule called that

823
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:26,399
Speaker 1: somewhat significant. So fingers crossed on that one. They opened

824
00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:28,680
Speaker 1: against UTEP then they got Colorado in their Week two.

825
00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:32,080
Speaker 1: But if they win against Colorado Northern Iowa Week three,

826
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:35,600
Speaker 1: Illinois Week four at Purdue, Rutgers at Indiana, there's not

827
00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:39,680
Speaker 1: a game until October twenty sixth where you would circle

828
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:42,399
Speaker 1: it at Ohio State and say, ooh, Nebraska's not gonna

829
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:45,359
Speaker 1: win that one. They got a shot to be one

830
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:47,600
Speaker 1: of the surprise hot start teams this year. Let's just

831
00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:50,680
Speaker 1: say this about like four dozen teams, but let's keep

832
00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:53,080
Speaker 1: an eye on him. I wanted to talk to you

833
00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:56,759
Speaker 1: about a couple more things here that there was not

834
00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:58,680
Speaker 1: necessarily a Twitter question about it. But I know a

835
00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:02,600
Speaker 1: lot of people have been talking about this, so all

836
00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,560
Speaker 1: you guys have thoughts. As I make sure I say, hey,

837
00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:07,440
Speaker 1: to you in the in the live chat. You know

838
00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:10,160
Speaker 1: how rude of me. Let me just put a random

839
00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,520
Speaker 1: emoji in there. It's a blue ghost. I don't know

840
00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:15,880
Speaker 1: what it means. It's not symbolic, but just wanted to

841
00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:19,680
Speaker 1: prove to you guys you're watching live. I know all

842
00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:22,680
Speaker 1: of you have opinions about Michigan last year, and some

843
00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:24,720
Speaker 1: of you just hate Michigan and some of you love Michigan.

844
00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:27,120
Speaker 1: But everyone's got an opinion about Michigan's team last year.

845
00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:30,120
Speaker 1: I'm not here to I'm not here to relitigate the

846
00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:32,880
Speaker 1: whole Connor Stallion's thing. You think what you think about that.

847
00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:36,719
Speaker 1: I think that when I watched the NFL Draft this

848
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:39,960
Speaker 1: past year or this past weekend, it really put a

849
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:42,359
Speaker 1: finer point on what I've been thinking about this past

850
00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:47,120
Speaker 1: year's Michigan team. So they had thirteen drafted and only

851
00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:50,760
Speaker 1: one guy win in the first round. So some people

852
00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:53,279
Speaker 1: took it upon themselves to pretend like that was an

853
00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:56,560
Speaker 1: indictment against Michigan, and I didn't view it that way.

854
00:44:58,120 --> 00:45:01,799
Speaker 1: I viewed it as Michigan being what I call the

855
00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:04,319
Speaker 1: last great college football team. I think if I write

856
00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:06,799
Speaker 1: a book about the twenty twenty three Michigan team. One day,

857
00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:09,960
Speaker 1: I may call it the last great college football team.

858
00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:12,680
Speaker 1: It's not the last college football team that will be

859
00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:15,759
Speaker 1: made of great players. What I mean is when will

860
00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:18,920
Speaker 1: a title ever be won in this manner? Again? The

861
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:21,720
Speaker 1: last two years, okay, they've had twenty two guys drafted.

862
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:24,400
Speaker 1: Eleven of twenty two of them were blue chip guys

863
00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:27,719
Speaker 1: depending on where you look, only one of them was

864
00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:30,440
Speaker 1: a five star, and McCarthy some places wasn't even a

865
00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:32,880
Speaker 1: five star in the final rankings updates. So my point

866
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:35,680
Speaker 1: is they didn't do it the Bama way, where you

867
00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:37,880
Speaker 1: just go load up on five star guys and you

868
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:39,359
Speaker 1: look at them and say, yeah, I mean, if they

869
00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:42,200
Speaker 1: don't get hurt, they'll they'll end up being drafted pretty high.

870
00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:44,840
Speaker 1: That's not exactly the way it works, but that's the

871
00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:47,880
Speaker 1: way that the elite teams do it. Michigan hasn't recruited

872
00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:50,279
Speaker 1: at a truly elite level. They brought in guys, they

873
00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:53,279
Speaker 1: developed them. The twenty twenty three Michigan team is the

874
00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:56,160
Speaker 1: only team to have more than ten guys drafted but

875
00:45:56,280 --> 00:45:58,920
Speaker 1: only one first round pick in the history of the draft.

876
00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:01,280
Speaker 1: So there were a bunch of of really good players.

877
00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:07,160
Speaker 1: There are guys that probably are sophomor's juniors that may

878
00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:09,600
Speaker 1: end up being first rounders. But I'm talking about the

879
00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:15,000
Speaker 1: veteran chunk of the team. That veteran chunk, that veteran

880
00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:17,400
Speaker 1: crew of this Michigan team, a lot of whom you

881
00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:21,520
Speaker 1: saw just get drafted. They came in together, they lost

882
00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:27,960
Speaker 1: early together, they developed together, They stayed together when there

883
00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:32,160
Speaker 1: were options to go elsewhere, and when Michigan's nil package

884
00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:34,960
Speaker 1: was not exactly matching dollar for dollar with some of

885
00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:37,880
Speaker 1: the big boys, they stayed there anyway, and then they

886
00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:40,680
Speaker 1: won together. It's just not a story you're gonna tell

887
00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:43,640
Speaker 1: a whole lot in the future of college football. That's

888
00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:46,480
Speaker 1: not the way it's gonna work anymore. So you may

889
00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:49,520
Speaker 1: hate Michigan, you may have not liked some of the

890
00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:52,839
Speaker 1: off the field headlines that circulated around that team this

891
00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:56,320
Speaker 1: past year. I can only speak for myself. I'm able

892
00:46:56,360 --> 00:46:58,040
Speaker 1: to remove it a little bit when I think about

893
00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:00,480
Speaker 1: this past year's team and I think think about some

894
00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:04,920
Speaker 1: of the positive aspects things that I love about college football,

895
00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:07,840
Speaker 1: things that as we get further removed from a bygone generation,

896
00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:11,759
Speaker 1: it'll sound more and more like an Andy Griffith episode

897
00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:14,040
Speaker 1: in your mind. Kids. If you don't know, just look

898
00:47:14,080 --> 00:47:17,040
Speaker 1: it up and learn to whistle while you're at it.

899
00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:19,320
Speaker 1: It'll just be the kinds of things you talk about

900
00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:23,880
Speaker 1: in almost like a fairytale type manner, about what teams

901
00:47:23,920 --> 00:47:26,920
Speaker 1: once were, how teams were constructed. So I don't know,

902
00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:29,640
Speaker 1: maybe that's a little romantic of me, but that's how

903
00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:31,959
Speaker 1: I feel about Michigan. I don't look at this whole

904
00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:34,680
Speaker 1: Did they or did they not break any draft record?

905
00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:37,600
Speaker 1: How many guys went first round? I don't care because

906
00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:39,520
Speaker 1: I'm a college football guy. I'm not an NFL guy,

907
00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:41,960
Speaker 1: so I don't really care about that either way. There

908
00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:44,960
Speaker 1: was this unmistakable confidence around this Michigan team last year

909
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:46,759
Speaker 1: that I really didn't get slapped in the face with

910
00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:49,319
Speaker 1: until the week of the Rose Bowl. I was at

911
00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:52,480
Speaker 1: the Michigan Penn State game, and I was at the

912
00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:56,360
Speaker 1: Michigan Ohio State game. But I was an around Michigan

913
00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:59,040
Speaker 1: as a team, around their players, talking to their coaches

914
00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:02,319
Speaker 1: as much much as I did at the latter portion

915
00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:04,759
Speaker 1: of the season until the Rose Bowl week. So the

916
00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:08,680
Speaker 1: Rose Bowl week, they go out to California. Bama goes

917
00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:12,399
Speaker 1: out to California, we're out there. And I never will

918
00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:16,239
Speaker 1: forget how quietly confident that Michigan group was. And the

919
00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:19,399
Speaker 1: reason I mentioned it is cause, in my experience, most

920
00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:23,440
Speaker 1: teams when they face Bama under Sabin over the years recently,

921
00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:27,040
Speaker 1: when teams have paced Kirby Smart and Georgia, they think

922
00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:29,279
Speaker 1: they have to do something different than what got them

923
00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:31,120
Speaker 1: there because they think what got them there is not

924
00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:34,960
Speaker 1: good enough. Michigan was just so quietly adamant that we

925
00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:37,520
Speaker 1: don't need to change a thing. Man. We know exactly

926
00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:40,919
Speaker 1: who we are, we know exactly how we win. We're

927
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:43,759
Speaker 1: not going to change anything. We think we're good enough

928
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:48,000
Speaker 1: to beat them. And they were right. What Michigan was

929
00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:50,680
Speaker 1: was good enough to beat them. And two years earlier,

930
00:48:51,239 --> 00:48:54,760
Speaker 1: those same guys are standing down there and they're losing

931
00:48:54,800 --> 00:48:57,160
Speaker 1: playoff games. Last year, the year before, they're losing a

932
00:48:57,200 --> 00:48:59,719
Speaker 1: playoff game. The year before that, they're standing down there

933
00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:02,760
Speaker 1: again and body bagged in the Orange Bowl by Georgia.

934
00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:05,920
Speaker 1: That is a really good college football story. Well, it

935
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:09,120
Speaker 1: didn't start off with fireworks, it ended with it. There

936
00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:11,680
Speaker 1: were several duds along the way, And think about how

937
00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:15,200
Speaker 1: much pressure was riding on this past year Michigan won

938
00:49:15,239 --> 00:49:18,080
Speaker 1: the national championship. So that's what you'll remember. What if

939
00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:20,879
Speaker 1: they didn't. What if they had lost to Ohio State,

940
00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:23,000
Speaker 1: or what if they had lost in the semi final

941
00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:25,960
Speaker 1: to Alabama the game went to overtime. What if they

942
00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:29,280
Speaker 1: lost that game? Instead of Harball goes out a winner,

943
00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:34,040
Speaker 1: there's the maze in blue confetti. JJ McCarthy completes his story.

944
00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:36,400
Speaker 1: That team completes their journey. What if it was they

945
00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:40,640
Speaker 1: choked in the semifinals for a third straight year. It's

946
00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:43,719
Speaker 1: like the Atlanta Braves of the nineties, best regular season team,

947
00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:46,120
Speaker 1: What did you do when it really counted? At least

948
00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:48,799
Speaker 1: the Braves won one, They'd say Michigan didn't even win one.

949
00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:51,400
Speaker 1: So that was a big time moment for them this

950
00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:54,280
Speaker 1: past year. That's how I'll remember it. Remember it however

951
00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:56,920
Speaker 1: you guys want to. But if you're interested in Michigan

952
00:49:56,960 --> 00:50:00,480
Speaker 1: this upcoming year, we do have odds on them. We

953
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:02,719
Speaker 1: have odds on them at FanDuel in terms of how

954
00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:04,919
Speaker 1: many games they're gonna win. We have odds on whether

955
00:50:04,960 --> 00:50:07,680
Speaker 1: they'll make the playoff, whether they'll miss the playoff. Yes, kids,

956
00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:10,160
Speaker 1: you can bet both of those. We have odds on

957
00:50:10,200 --> 00:50:13,120
Speaker 1: whether they'll win the Big Ten Championship. We've got odds

958
00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:15,400
Speaker 1: pretty much on anything that you would like to bet.

959
00:50:15,640 --> 00:50:17,920
Speaker 1: We've got some Heisman ods coming out, like we'll have

960
00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:21,120
Speaker 1: Games of the Year. You know, if you want to,

961
00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:23,640
Speaker 1: if you get to a place in your mind where

962
00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:25,960
Speaker 1: you're bored enough on a Monday, you'll be able to go.

963
00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:28,040
Speaker 1: Bet Ohio State versus Michigan. I think last time I

964
00:50:28,040 --> 00:50:29,560
Speaker 1: saw Ohio State was about a ten and a half

965
00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:33,160
Speaker 1: point favorite this fall. So hey, they'll tell you it

966
00:50:33,160 --> 00:50:35,279
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Man, Ohio State's been favored in that game.

967
00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:38,920
Speaker 1: Doesn't matter. FanDuel is the place to go. Though educational purposes,

994
00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:14,279
Speaker 1: got a classic situation where I've got a sneeze. It's

995
00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:17,160
Speaker 1: just been sitting here, Colin. I'm not telling you it's eminent.

996
00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:20,839
Speaker 1: In fact, I think I can suppress it. But there

997
00:52:20,920 --> 00:52:24,120
Speaker 1: is a sneeze. And this is when we do live shows.

998
00:52:24,200 --> 00:52:26,360
Speaker 1: This is part of the risk. It's part of the

999
00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:31,160
Speaker 1: tightrope walk because when I sneeze, it's violent, so I

1000
00:52:31,200 --> 00:52:34,360
Speaker 1: can't just automatically come back from it. I got watery eyes,

1001
00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:37,400
Speaker 1: I got a raspy throat, So it's in everyone's best

1002
00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:39,640
Speaker 1: interest that I get through this final part of the

1003
00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:41,680
Speaker 1: show here, and then we can just go do whatever

1004
00:52:41,719 --> 00:52:44,040
Speaker 1: we want to. I can sleep until about three o'clock

1005
00:52:44,040 --> 00:52:47,120
Speaker 1: tomorrow because I haven't had any since three point thirty

1006
00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:49,880
Speaker 1: am on Friday. It's the last time your boy here

1007
00:52:49,960 --> 00:52:53,560
Speaker 1: had any shut eye. Let's close strong here. I had

1008
00:52:53,600 --> 00:52:58,120
Speaker 1: a question from Andrew, So Andrew hits me and he says,

1009
00:52:58,239 --> 00:53:00,680
Speaker 1: how long do you think people will continue to overrate

1010
00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:05,640
Speaker 1: Alabama due to the Saban effect even though he's retired now? Now, Andrew,

1011
00:53:06,080 --> 00:53:07,960
Speaker 1: I trust that you've watched the show or listened to

1012
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:10,719
Speaker 1: the show for a while and proactively I thank you

1013
00:53:10,880 --> 00:53:14,080
Speaker 1: if you have. You know my rule about being overrated.

1014
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:18,719
Speaker 1: Anytime you call someone overrated, I don't disagree immediately, but

1015
00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:22,880
Speaker 1: I do ask what are they rated? And where should

1016
00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:25,279
Speaker 1: they be rated? And if you're telling me they should

1017
00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:27,919
Speaker 1: be rated lower, who should be rated ahead of them?

1018
00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:30,640
Speaker 1: Now you presented a hypothetical, So we don't know where

1019
00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:32,600
Speaker 1: Obama's going to be rated any given week in the

1020
00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:35,560
Speaker 1: future because the games haven't been played yet. I can

1021
00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:37,480
Speaker 1: tell you I don't have a lot of concern about this.

1022
00:53:37,880 --> 00:53:41,360
Speaker 1: I think the general public, or the AP poll, or

1023
00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:44,560
Speaker 1: the JP pole or the College Football Playoff Committee, I

1024
00:53:44,560 --> 00:53:47,440
Speaker 1: think they'll handle this pretty much right. I think the

1025
00:53:47,480 --> 00:53:51,640
Speaker 1: opposite has a better percentage chance of happening, the opposite

1026
00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:55,640
Speaker 1: being the first time they show a weakness, the first

1027
00:53:55,640 --> 00:53:59,040
Speaker 1: time they show a vulnerability. Under Saban, it would have

1028
00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:02,279
Speaker 1: just been, oh well, no one's perfect. They lost a game,

1029
00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:05,360
Speaker 1: they'll still make the playoff. Well, now that Saban's gone

1030
00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:09,560
Speaker 1: and everyone's looking for cracks in the foundation, every single

1031
00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:12,520
Speaker 1: flaw I think will be turned up to the nth degree.

1032
00:54:12,840 --> 00:54:15,600
Speaker 1: And I think any loss, I mean, can you imagine

1033
00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:18,640
Speaker 1: if they lose thirty one to twenty one to Georgia

1034
00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:20,839
Speaker 1: in Week four and they do play this year. By

1035
00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:23,520
Speaker 1: the way, week four, do you know what the talk

1036
00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:26,520
Speaker 1: will be? The talk will be now that Saban's gone,

1037
00:54:26,600 --> 00:54:30,239
Speaker 1: Bama's run is over. Kirby and Georgia have permanently ascended

1038
00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:32,719
Speaker 1: to the head thrown the head seat at the table

1039
00:54:32,760 --> 00:54:36,799
Speaker 1: in the SEC. You know that will happen. And it's

1040
00:54:36,840 --> 00:54:40,160
Speaker 1: in Tuscaloosa too, so you know that'll happen. I think

1041
00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:47,240
Speaker 1: that the SEC, I remember, so the past few months

1042
00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:51,000
Speaker 1: I think gave us proof of this, proof that people

1043
00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:53,640
Speaker 1: are gonna freak out anytime Bama shows the least bit

1044
00:54:53,640 --> 00:54:57,360
Speaker 1: of vulnerability was found in January. Remember January, Caitlin de

1045
00:54:57,400 --> 00:55:00,520
Speaker 1: Boor takes the job and what happened? That thirty window

1046
00:55:00,560 --> 00:55:03,600
Speaker 1: opened up. Caleb Downs jumps in it. A couple other

1047
00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:06,560
Speaker 1: guys did. One of them has since come back, and

1048
00:55:06,680 --> 00:55:10,399
Speaker 1: everyone started taking it upon themselves who hadn't been able

1049
00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:12,400
Speaker 1: to trash talk Bama for like a decade and a

1050
00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:15,279
Speaker 1: half to say, oh it's here. Now here comes that

1051
00:55:15,320 --> 00:55:18,600
Speaker 1: Berlin wall crashing to the ground. Well, since then they

1052
00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:22,080
Speaker 1: stabilized things, they righted the ship. But I think that

1053
00:55:22,200 --> 00:55:25,520
Speaker 1: was an early preview of even though Bama was only

1054
00:55:25,560 --> 00:55:28,759
Speaker 1: suffering something that would happen to anyone in their circumstance.

1055
00:55:29,880 --> 00:55:32,759
Speaker 1: You saw how people respond him. A lot about what

1056
00:55:32,960 --> 00:55:35,120
Speaker 1: Saban did is still there, by the way, So if

1057
00:55:35,160 --> 00:55:37,120
Speaker 1: you want to call it the Saban effect, well, a

1058
00:55:37,160 --> 00:55:39,800
Speaker 1: lot of the players he recruited are still there. Certainly

1059
00:55:39,800 --> 00:55:43,279
Speaker 1: the program he built is still there. That place is immaculate,

1060
00:55:43,320 --> 00:55:46,160
Speaker 1: it's incredible. Caylin de Borg is a stud in his

1061
00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:48,799
Speaker 1: own right, I think. But it would also be shortsighted

1062
00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:52,879
Speaker 1: to suggest nothing that was great about Sabin is still there.

1063
00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:55,640
Speaker 1: The man himself's not the head coach. But it's not

1064
00:55:55,719 --> 00:55:58,200
Speaker 1: like he took his ball and went home. It's not

1065
00:55:58,280 --> 00:56:00,200
Speaker 1: like he said, y'all go find a new building to

1066
00:56:00,239 --> 00:56:03,520
Speaker 1: train in, y'all go find a new athletics department budget.

1067
00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:06,880
Speaker 1: I'm taking all this stuff. Hey, twenty thousand students who

1068
00:56:07,040 --> 00:56:09,799
Speaker 1: enrolled here over the span of fifteen years because I'm here,

1069
00:56:10,400 --> 00:56:13,920
Speaker 1: go back to New Jersey, start over from scratch. Alabama.

1070
00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:16,960
Speaker 1: A lot of that's still there. So yeah, maybe there

1071
00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:19,480
Speaker 1: is a Sabing effect. Maybe there's a Kaitlin Debor effect.

1072
00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:22,880
Speaker 1: Now if you believe that, if you believe that they

1073
00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:25,399
Speaker 1: won't drop off much, they're over under win totals nine

1074
00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:28,799
Speaker 1: and a half to win the SEC championship there plus

1075
00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:32,040
Speaker 1: nine point fifty. It's really really good money to be

1076
00:56:32,080 --> 00:56:35,080
Speaker 1: made there if you believe in Alabama. So I just

1077
00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:36,880
Speaker 1: believe we had a good show tonight. It could have

1078
00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:41,680
Speaker 1: been a disaster because I am very, very sleep deprived.

1079
00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:43,960
Speaker 1: So we're gonna get off air tonight. We're gonna go

1080
00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:46,600
Speaker 1: get ourselves a nice fourteen or fifteen hours of rest

1081

Speaker 1: and be up at the crack of noon tomorrow to
