Cliff Kingsbury sort 9 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:37,040 Speaker 1: of shakes off the Oklahoma rumors, Max Scherzer to the 10 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,959 Speaker 1: Matt's Corey Seeger bolts La for the Texas Rangers. Just 11 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:44,519 Speaker 1: some of the headlines today. Mcloven pull question for the 12 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: final hour. Okay, our two was what was the biggest 13 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 1: surprise last week in college football? And it was a 14 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:53,880 Speaker 1: runaway seventy said Brian Kelly, leaving Notre Dame. I have 15 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,960 Speaker 1: an NFL question and it's ugly race yourself, you might say, 16 00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 1: not safe for work. Okay, who gets a number seven 17 00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:04,800 Speaker 1: seed in the NFC? Right now? The Niners are in 18 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 1: and Washington improved to getting in at five and six. 19 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 1: Here are the five and six and four and seven. Teams. 20 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 1: Who do you like? Washington Minnesota at five and six, 21 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,480 Speaker 1: the Falcons at five and six, the Saints at five 22 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 1: and six, the Eagles at five and seven, the Panthers 23 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 1: at five and seven. Oh my god, I'll throw in 24 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:21,600 Speaker 1: the Giants at four and seven, and the Bears at 25 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,560 Speaker 1: four and seven. Oh god. Is there one team out 26 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 1: there that seems good to you or will make a 27 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:30,120 Speaker 1: run or? I would guess the Saints seemed to be 28 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,639 Speaker 1: the class of that group, but they just got blown 29 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,759 Speaker 1: out at home. They got Dallas coming up on Thursday. 30 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: I thought the Eagles were building on something, but you know, 31 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 1: you score seven points against the Giants had a chance 32 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 1: to win it. At the beginning of the year, I 33 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 1: thought the Falcons would be on the custom of being 34 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: a playoff team. They have been a big disappointment, but 35 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 1: they're still in it. The Saints, i guess, surprised me 36 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 1: the most of Vikings. No, the Vikings are you can't 37 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 1: count on the Vikings. It's like the Vikings are the 38 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 1: Raiders of the Midwest, where you just go, hey, I 39 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 1: think I don't know, I don't know. Yes time the 40 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 1: Vikings have the Lions, Steelers and Bears twice, but they 41 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 1: also have the Rams and Packers waiting still on their schedule. 42 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:19,639 Speaker 1: Correct now, they might win three more games, maybe four. Yeah, mclem. 43 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: It'd help if their quarterback lined up under center. Yeah yeah. 44 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 1: That's become such a thing. That's how what everyone associates 45 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 1: with this year. I think John Elway once did that. 46 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 1: In fairness to Kirk d Cousins that it's happened before 47 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 1: with quarterbacks, although sometimes you get your bell rung, and 48 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 1: I think Elway this might have been against the Steelers 49 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: that he got his bell rung and he lined up 50 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: over guard and not center, which is understandable if you 51 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:47,919 Speaker 1: played against the steel curtain. Yes, Paul, if that was 52 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: a veteran offensive line, the center would have rolled the 53 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:51,920 Speaker 1: ball casually with a guard. They would have snapped it 54 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 1: and not embarrassed their quarterback. Back up your guy, age 55 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 1: seven seven three D P show email UNDRESSDP at Dan 56 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 1: Patrick dot com, Twitter handle a DP show. We will 57 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 1: check in with the Notre Dame Fighting Iveragh coming up 58 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 1: in about twenty minutes. The athletic director Jack Swarbrick had 59 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 1: this to say, Brian Kelly did not discuss with me 60 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 1: the conversations he had with other universities. We are always 61 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: talking about the program's needs. There was nothing identified at 62 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 1: any time that something there was something we could not meet. Okay, 63 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 1: I mean I Brian Kelly may not have known how 64 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: serious this was. I'll go back to what I was told. 65 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 1: LS you thought they were getting They thought they had 66 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley. And that's how quickly it turned. Because it 67 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 1: went from twelve million dollars a year for Lincoln Riley too. 68 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: We're in a real, real desperate situation here to get 69 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: a marquee name, and then you pump it up to 70 00:03:55,800 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 1: fifteen million. Now all of a sudden, Brian Kelly's like, hey, 71 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 1: they had conversations with him to start the year and 72 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: he wasn't interested. And at the end of the year, 73 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know, they might get into the 74 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 1: final four. I mean how crazy would that be? What 75 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: if they get into the final four? What if Cincinnati's 76 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 1: in the final four. What if Luke Fickle then has 77 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 1: to decide on Notre Dame. I mean, it's it's wild, 78 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,479 Speaker 1: but there's so much money now that these coaches. You 79 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: get that opportunity or you leverage something that's like Cliff 80 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: Kingsbury he's going to leverage Oklahoma, and I don't blame him. 81 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 1: I mean, he's up for Coach of the Year. Him 82 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 1: and Belichick are the two favorites coording to Vegas for 83 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:48,159 Speaker 1: Coach of the Year. Cliff Kingsbury tried to shake off 84 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 1: the question yesterday at a press conference or yesterday's saying 85 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 1: that Oklahoma was interesting. You've had coaching job. I wondering 86 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,599 Speaker 1: if you had a reaction to that, and if you 87 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 1: have mutual contests in that job. Yeah. I don't get 88 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 1: into those things. My sole focused last couple weeks has 89 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: been Chicago Bears, and after watching on Thanksgiving, it needs 90 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 1: to be because they're a really good football team and 91 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 1: had a big win, and so that's where my focus 92 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: has been. Yeah, Cliff, why not just say I have 93 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 1: no interest in the Oklahoma job. Yeah, I just like 94 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 1: I said, we're in season, We're nine and two. Um, 95 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:28,719 Speaker 1: just not a tower I want to touch on right now. 96 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 1: He's negotiating without negotiating, that's all that was semantics. Well, yeah, 97 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,479 Speaker 1: like I had it. I don't want to talk about that. Okay, Yeah, 98 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 1: I don't blame you, but your agent doesn't it probably 99 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,279 Speaker 1: wants to talk about it. Yeah. See. The Brian Kelly 100 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: thing feels like a bigger move though, and not one 101 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 1: that can be like, well, you know, I hadn't really 102 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,600 Speaker 1: thought about it until all of a sudden this weekend 103 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: it just happened like you can't break Newt Rockney's record 104 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 1: the same season, and then it just it feels like 105 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,279 Speaker 1: there had been more thought over the coming over the 106 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,679 Speaker 1: past few months about making a jump to the SEC 107 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: from Notre Dame after you break that record. Sure, if 108 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: the timing of all that seems yeah, but you would 109 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: have taken the job before Lincoln Riley because Lincoln Riley 110 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 1: could have taken that job. Is Brian Kelly gonna take 111 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 1: the Oklahoma job? No? Is he gonna take USC No. 112 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 1: That's why it felt like it was eleventh hour and 113 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: LSU just said, you know what, let's take a shot. Hey, 114 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: we gotta get we gotta get the money up, we 115 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: gotta make it so he can't say no because Lincoln 116 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 1: Riley was taking the job, and then all of a 117 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 1: sudden it's there, He's not taking the job. And then 118 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: you got to save face because you can't have people 119 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 1: keep you know, can't whiffle on all of these candidates 120 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 1: and that's probably where, in fairness to Kelly, maybe it was, Hey, 121 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: I spoke to these guys prior to this start of 122 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 1: the season, and I wasn't interested. And I'd think he 123 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 1: wanted to be the all time leader and wins at 124 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,599 Speaker 1: Notre Dame. All Right, he accomplished that. All Right, you're 125 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: on the outside of the final four. Maybe if one 126 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 1: of these teams slips up in a conference title game, 127 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: you slip in. But I think he probably looked at 128 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 1: this and I don't know this, but I'll certainly try. 129 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 1: I've gone as far as I can go. I mean, 130 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: there's a glass ceiling Notre Dame against Alabama in the 131 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: title game. You had one team that was a true 132 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: college power and yet another one that was trying to 133 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: act like a true college power. There was a big 134 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:42,679 Speaker 1: difference between those two. And recruiting, Notre Dame can't recruit 135 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 1: the way Alabama does or LSU does or most of 136 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: these schools, and that's a big difference there. And maybe 137 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: he just said, you know what, it's time for a change. 138 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 1: And money certainly played a role. Certainly understand that we 139 00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 1: talked a lot about watching Seattle last night. I'm on 140 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 1: record and been on record for probably the last six weeks, 141 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 1: maybe two months, that I don't see Russ there next season, 142 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: and I do think the scenario to keep an eye on. 143 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: There's two. There's three scenarios where I would say just 144 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: keep an eye on. This. One is Pete Carroll's not back. Now. 145 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 1: I don't know if you management or ownership is going 146 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: to say no, Pete is staying, and Pete wants to stay. Okay, 147 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: I'm just saying, here's three scenarios that could happen in 148 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 1: Seattle that Pete steps down. Russ more likely to stay 149 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 1: if Pete steps down, and who's coming in? Okay, here's 150 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:47,320 Speaker 1: another one. What if Russ goes to management and says, look, 151 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: you guys don't want to be spending fifty million dollars 152 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: on your quarterback. Can I pick a team that you'll 153 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 1: send me to and make this a Matthew Stafford like 154 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:05,200 Speaker 1: situation where nobody's the bad guy here, that hey, we 155 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 1: need Detroit needed to move on and rebuild, and the 156 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 1: Rams were ready to win, and you get an established 157 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 1: quarterback and maybe Seattle will go. You know what, how 158 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: about we get a couple of these first round draft 159 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: picks from the Giants or the Eagles, and Russ goes 160 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 1: there Miami. I don't know what the Saints have. What 161 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: if Russ Russ's agent hears from a team and says, 162 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 1: would Russ wave his no trade clause if we asked 163 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:42,680 Speaker 1: to trade for him. It feels like one of those 164 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 1: three is going to happen there. But I think the 165 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:50,199 Speaker 1: only way Russ stays is if Pete Carroll is replaced 166 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 1: by somebody else, a younger coach, offensive minded coach. But 167 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: now you're watching, and I don't think Russ is in decline. 168 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 1: I think he's hurt and still trying to, you know, 169 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 1: play through that injured finger. And he missed a lot 170 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: of throws badly last night, and I think that has 171 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: to be factored in as well. But they have no identity. 172 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:18,239 Speaker 1: I mean, DK Metcalf got one catch. Tyler Lockett sometimes 173 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 1: he's incredible, sometimes not their running game not there. Yes, 174 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 1: he after what you saw last night, does it make 175 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: sense to still play Russell Wilson. He's not gonna sit 176 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: down like that's That'll be the hard part is to say, 177 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 1: I would have well, does it make sense for him 178 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:40,679 Speaker 1: to want to play? No, But he's gonna want two. 179 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 1: He doesn't miss games. He had not missed any games 180 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 1: in his career up until this year. And I think 181 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:48,959 Speaker 1: that would be a hard thing for you to go. Hey, 182 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 1: all right, Russ, we want to protect you because we'll 183 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 1: trade you in the offseason. Or you want to see 184 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 1: Geno Smith in there like you know you're tanking. Yeah, Levin, 185 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 1: wasn't there a story he'd wake up but three am 186 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 1: to rehab his finger. He's a maniac. Of course he's 187 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 1: You're not gonna be able to drag him off the field. 188 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 1: But I kind of agree with Heaton sentiment. It's not 189 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 1: helping him or the team. No, it's not. But he's 190 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:14,559 Speaker 1: still going to want to play. And if you're Seattle, 191 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 1: is it gonna matter at three and eight? No, that's fine, 192 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: all right, we'll get phone calls coming up. Tiger Woods 193 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: held a press conference earlier today and he talked about 194 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 1: maybe playing golf again. I think something that is realistic 195 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 1: is playing the tour one day, never full time ever again. 196 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: Pick and choose, just like what mister Hogan did, You 197 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 1: pick it choose a few events a year, and you 198 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 1: play around that, you practice around it, and try and 199 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 1: gear yourself up for that and you play it. I 200 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: think that's gonna how I'm gonna have to play it 201 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,959 Speaker 1: from now on. There's an unfortunate reality, but it's fine reality, 202 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 1: and I understand it. I accepted. He also talked about, 203 00:11:58,040 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 1: you know, how good can he be? Can he be 204 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:03,079 Speaker 1: great again? I don't have to compete and play against 205 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 1: best pleas in the world to have a great life. 206 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 1: I know that after my back fusion, I want I 207 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 1: had for me. I had to prove it to myself. 208 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 1: I had to climb Evers one more time. I had 209 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 1: to do it, and I did it this time around. 210 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,560 Speaker 1: I don't think I will have the body to climb 211 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: Mount Evers, and that's okay, but I can't participate in 212 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: the game of golf. I can still maybe if my 213 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,319 Speaker 1: leg gets good enough, maybe click cook off a tournament 214 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: here or there, But as far as climbing the mountain 215 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 1: will get all the way to the top, I don't 216 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 1: think that's a realistic expectation of me. And what he's 217 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 1: doing is he's lowering expectations, and I understand that philosophy. 218 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 1: And plus he picked and choose the events he wanted 219 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 1: to play in any way, It's not like he was 220 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 1: based you know, a full time golfer. This was about 221 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: winning majors. And do I think he'll play again. I hope, 222 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 1: but I mean I'm fine if he doesn't, you know, 223 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 1: I mean, it gave the game more than any other 224 00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: golfer probably has in history. I don't need anything more. 225 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 1: But if he wants it, then great. I just don't 226 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 1: want to see him go out there the way he did. 227 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,199 Speaker 1: Remember when he had the yips, he and he just 228 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: it felt like you were watching somebody. It was a 229 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: you know, one of those body switching movies where you 230 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 1: had somebody in Tiger's body out there and they were 231 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 1: hitting shots like I would hit. I hope that we 232 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 1: don't see that. I hope that he can play in 233 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 1: a way that he is competitive and he's not going 234 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 1: to get out there and embarrass himself. But I think 235 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:38,200 Speaker 1: in his mind, when you go through rehab, and you know, 236 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 1: his rehab is different than all the rehabs that I've 237 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 1: gone through, you know, where I just wanted to get 238 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 1: back to normalcy. He wants to get back to being 239 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 1: an elite athlete, where I just wanted to be able 240 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 1: to swing a golf club or shoot a basketball when 241 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: I had shoulder surgery or when I had my knee surgeries. 242 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 1: You know, could I get back to just running a 243 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:58,079 Speaker 1: little bit? No, Tiger has different goals there, but you 244 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 1: need a goal no matter who you are, how old 245 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 1: you are, you need a goal when you go through 246 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 1: rehab after surgery. And he went through a life altering situation, 247 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:14,959 Speaker 1: very nearly died, nearly lost his leg. But in that 248 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 1: rehab process, and it can be a dark place that 249 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 1: you go into when you go into rehab because there's 250 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 1: really nothing there. You're working with a therapist and you're 251 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 1: doing exercises so mundane, but you want to in your 252 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: mind go, this is why I'm doing it. And I 253 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 1: don't know those reasons why he's going to go this 254 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: is why I'm doing it. But he needs to have that. 255 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 1: It's not money, it's not fame. He's not going to 256 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 1: be winning majors. It could be just I want to 257 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: get back to be able to play eighteen holes with 258 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 1: my son. I want to get back do a father's 259 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 1: son event. Maybe I want to get back and do 260 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 1: maybe a cameo in my charity golf event that I hold. 261 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: Whatever those things are, he's the only one that has 262 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 1: to be satisfied. He's the only one that has to go. 263 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 1: This is why I'm doing it. It's nobody else, nobody 264 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: else's business, because you may not understand that's why he 265 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 1: wants to do it. Yeah, mcclub does he sound almost 266 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 1: happier now and decline than you knew him at the 267 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 1: height of his fame. But to me, he's sound a 268 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 1: little more settled that I've used to. Well, I think 269 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 1: trying to understand what his world must have been like 270 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 1: that everything was secretive. And I remember being at Pebble 271 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 1: Beach and this was ninety six or ninety seven at 272 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 1: the Pebble Beach Pro am and we were in the 273 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 1: tap room. Well, the tap room was where players could 274 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 1: go in after their round and there were no fans there. 275 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 1: Now that's changed, but I remember being in there and 276 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 1: Tiger was in there and he was sitting with a woman, 277 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 1: but he didn't engage with the rest of us. So 278 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 1: I'm in there with Mark Grace, Bill Murray, David Feraty, 279 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 1: Gary Accord, so a pretty festive group, but Tiger stayed 280 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: off to the side and was like, it almost felt 281 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 1: like he didn't know how to just have fun and 282 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,240 Speaker 1: be just a normal guy because he was just starting 283 00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 1: to be quote unquote Tiger Woods, and I just felt 284 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 1: like growing up the way he did, he didn't have 285 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 1: a childhood, not a normal childhood, and I think he 286 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 1: still struggles with can I be just a regular guy? 287 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 1: Even his answers. His answers don't sound natural. It's not 288 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 1: like he's just talking to you. It's very stilted. And 289 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 1: so you never feel like people say, oh, you've interviewed Tiger. 290 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 1: How He's usually not a good interview because he doesn't 291 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: want to be a good interview. He doesn't hide it. 292 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,760 Speaker 1: It's not like Jeter, who you think he's saying something 293 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 1: and appears nice. He doesn't say anything, but he's very 294 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 1: nice in doing that. Tiger. You know, Tiger doesn't want 295 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 1: you prying. He didn't want to talk about the crash. 296 00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 1: He says, I'm lucky to be alive. But he didn't 297 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 1: want to answer anything, you know, he said. You know, 298 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:06,160 Speaker 1: the answers have been answered in the investigation. You can 299 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 1: read about it there in the police report. You know, 300 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:15,200 Speaker 1: who knows what? You know? Was he on something? Were 301 00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 1: there blood test taken like drawn? I don't believe. So 302 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,920 Speaker 1: there's still a big mystery about that, But there's always 303 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,640 Speaker 1: mysteries with Tiger and always will be. But I hope 304 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 1: he gets that opportunity where he gets to make the 305 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 1: decision to play golf again.

What's on your 336 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 1: mind today? Dan? Always a great pleasure. This seems like 337 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 1: a money grab to meet Dan's He's going to a 338 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 1: school where he's gonna have to play Florida, Auburn A 339 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 1: and m Alabama And I'm missing somebody in there, maybe 340 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:18,240 Speaker 1: old Miss, but he's gonna have to play those schools 341 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 1: every year, schools that he struggled to be at Notre 342 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 1: Dame and and real quick, Dan, do you think LSU 343 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 1: is a better team than Notre Dame. I think I 344 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 1: think he had it better at Notre Dame. But I 345 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 1: just think this is this seems like, let me get 346 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:35,399 Speaker 1: one last big contract in here before I hang it up. 347 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 1: I love to get your thoughts. Do have a great week, buddy, 348 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,400 Speaker 1: Thank you, Phil. I think the recruiting aspect of this 349 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 1: is really important because he can go out and get 350 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:45,919 Speaker 1: anybody once Notre Dame and it's up there with Vandy 351 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 1: and Stanford. It's tough to get everybody in that you 352 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 1: want to get in, and I think that that's that 353 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 1: goes a long way. Plus, they gave him a monetary 354 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:57,840 Speaker 1: offer that he probably couldn't refuse. I think he'd accomplished 355 00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 1: everything he was going to or thought he was going to. There. Yeah, Polly, 356 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,920 Speaker 1: Just to give it a little background, the twenty twenty 357 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:05,680 Speaker 1: two recruiting classes. If you want to look at something 358 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 1: that was recent, Georgia was number one, Alabama number two, 359 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 1: Clemson number three, LSU number four, Ohio State number five, 360 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:17,159 Speaker 1: A number six. This is almost everybody had that some 361 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,320 Speaker 1: type of order. You have to go down for Notre 362 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 1: Dame's recruiting class with eighteenth in the country. That's a 363 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 1: that's a dip from LSU. And you know, do I 364 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:27,679 Speaker 1: think Notre Dame is a better job than LSU. I 365 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:31,400 Speaker 1: do from from the standpoint of Notre Dame is still 366 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,680 Speaker 1: a standalone school, and you know, they have their own 367 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 1: TV network and they have their own identity, and you know, 368 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 1: will that change in the coming years with college football perhaps, 369 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:46,119 Speaker 1: but LSU, you're just in the sec. Notre Dame was 370 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 1: a standalone for me. Eric Hanson has covered Notre Dame 371 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:54,640 Speaker 1: since the mid nineties nineteen ninety seven and he covers 372 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:58,879 Speaker 1: Notre Dame football for the South Ben Tribune. Where's this rank? 373 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 1: On shocking Day at Notre Dame and Notre Dame history, 374 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:07,480 Speaker 1: there Eric, shocking days of my career. I've been doing 375 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 1: this since nineteen eighty three and that was number one. 376 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I just didn't see it coming. And I'm 377 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:18,880 Speaker 1: still kind of shaking my head. Brian Kelly just finished 378 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:24,479 Speaker 1: building a new house near campus, and boy, it was 379 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 1: It's just, you know, as much as he's his whole 380 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 1: identity has been tied into Notre Dame winning a national championship, 381 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:39,359 Speaker 1: in him fighting to put Notre Dame in a position 382 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 1: to make that a reality and ruffling some feathers along 383 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:46,399 Speaker 1: the way. It's just an interesting left turn for me 384 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,680 Speaker 1: from my perspective. How would you sum up the last 385 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 1: twenty four hours? And do you think all of this 386 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:57,639 Speaker 1: happened in a twenty four hour period? I do. I 387 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:05,879 Speaker 1: think that Brian was you know, was always willing to 388 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 1: listen to people, but I don't think he thought saw 389 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:16,679 Speaker 1: himself as walking away from Notre Dame. And you know, 390 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,400 Speaker 1: I think it just all kind of came together. I mean, 391 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:25,639 Speaker 1: his own assistant coaches didn't know, and so you know, 392 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 1: Jack Swarbert mentioned that, you know, he had conversations with 393 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 1: Brian last night. That's when they first talked about it. 394 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: So you know, the thing about it is Brian did 395 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,800 Speaker 1: leave the program in a good place. And whoever walks 396 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:46,880 Speaker 1: in the door next is going to have a much 397 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:49,359 Speaker 1: easier job than Brian did walking in the door. And 398 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:56,879 Speaker 1: December two thousand and nine, why did he leave? You know, 399 00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 1: I was talking to a friend of his just before 400 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,879 Speaker 1: or we got on the air here, and you know, 401 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 1: I think the money had something to do with it, 402 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 1: but I just think, you know, maybe a different challenge, 403 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:14,439 Speaker 1: maybe he just got tired of trying to fight the 404 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:19,679 Speaker 1: same fights and just thought, well, let's let's try to 405 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 1: do this somewhere else. It's surprises again. We're still kind 406 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 1: of walking through the shock of his own friends, of 407 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:32,680 Speaker 1: his own inner circle that this happened. And so it 408 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 1: just I wish I had a better answer for you, Dan, Well, 409 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:43,840 Speaker 1: you sound like somebody who is shocked. I have. I've 410 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 1: shaken my head at sixty years old, you know, two 411 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 1: to go, and Brian's a young sixty takes care of himself, 412 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:53,439 Speaker 1: he does yoga, He has a lot of balance in 413 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 1: his life. I mean, you know, he was the oldest 414 00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 1: coach to ever coach at Notre Dame. He's the first 415 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:01,399 Speaker 1: one to be sixty years old to be on that sideline. 416 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:06,240 Speaker 1: So he's doing something right. But you know, his whole 417 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:10,080 Speaker 1: identity was tied in recruiting and everything else was tied 418 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:13,159 Speaker 1: into his belief when nobody else was believing him that 419 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 1: Notre Dame could win a national championship, and all the 420 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,399 Speaker 1: battles that he had to fight for the JumboTron and 421 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: facilities and artificial turf, that just made the traditionalist mad. 422 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 1: You know, that was all who Brian Kelly was, and 423 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 1: that's why you know, right last night I wrote he 424 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 1: kind of broke the promise to himself that he could 425 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 1: do this, that he could pull it off. All right. 426 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 1: So the short list of candidates to replace him, you know, 427 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,280 Speaker 1: the two that are the most intriguing to me as 428 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: Luca Fickle, who's the head coach at Cincinnati and who 429 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 1: has no interest in being distracted from what they're trying 430 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,920 Speaker 1: to do this weekend with Houston. So I would be 431 00:24:55,960 --> 00:25:00,200 Speaker 1: shocked if any there was any movement this week with him. 432 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 1: And then I think Marcus Freeman's intriguing. I think it's 433 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:08,920 Speaker 1: a risk only from the standpoint that non head coaches, 434 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:13,119 Speaker 1: non head college coaches haven't done well in this job 435 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 1: and no matter how talented they seem, kind of coming 436 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 1: in and Marcus has only been at Notre Dame for 437 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 1: a year. Boy is he a sharp guy when you 438 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:28,919 Speaker 1: talk to him. The defensive coordinator, the defensive coordinator, he 439 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 1: can recruit, He handles having six kids pretty well, so 440 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 1: he's a good multitasker. But I think he's an intriguing pick. 441 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,920 Speaker 1: I think it would be a risk. I think that 442 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,960 Speaker 1: is the guy that the players are building support for. 443 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:48,359 Speaker 1: I'm not sure how much of a voice they'll have 444 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 1: in this, But that's kind of who they're kind of 445 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 1: pushing Notre Dame to look at, and I think he 446 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 1: will get a look. I wonder about this, Eric, we're 447 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 1: talking to Eric Hanson. He covers Notre Dame football for 448 00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:02,119 Speaker 1: the South Bend Tribune. Let's say this is I don't know, 449 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:06,359 Speaker 1: eight months ago, a year ago, Urban Meyers on the 450 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:13,719 Speaker 1: Fox pregame show set, and you have openings including Jacksonville, 451 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 1: but you have Notre Dame as an opening. And Urban famously, 452 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,640 Speaker 1: when he was leaving Utah, I think did a pitch 453 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 1: stop at Notre Dame and then didn't like what he 454 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 1: heard and then kept going south to Florida. But Urban 455 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 1: Meyer on the radar here at all with Notre Dame. 456 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 1: I think the circumstances that led him to leave Ohio 457 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:38,919 Speaker 1: State would be a tough sell for the Notre Dame trustees, 458 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:41,760 Speaker 1: as much as they'd love to have him, as much 459 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 1: as that was kind of always the dream coach, I 460 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,720 Speaker 1: think that would keep Notre Dame from moving on that, 461 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 1: even if there were interested interest from Urban On the 462 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 1: other side of that, what's a better opening? USC ls 463 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:02,199 Speaker 1: Notre Dame O clone in there? But Oklahoma. I mean, 464 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 1: if you want to but best job out of those four, 465 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: I think Notre Dame is a great job. I think 466 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 1: it's the hardest job of the four. Yeah, you know, Okloma, 467 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:20,119 Speaker 1: you have Texas sitting there, USC of California recruiting, Louisiana 468 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 1: per capita has great talent, and Notre Dame. You know 469 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 1: where Notre Dame's biggest draw has been for talent in 470 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 1: the last four years, California, and number two is Georgia. 471 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 1: It's not Ohio or Indiana or Illinois. I mean, they're 472 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:38,119 Speaker 1: going all over the place. And I think that's and 473 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:42,400 Speaker 1: now Brian Kelly's raised the bar on expectations. I think 474 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:46,359 Speaker 1: it's the most difficult of those jobs. What would be 475 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 1: the best job, I would say probably USC, just because 476 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 1: they have the tradition, the recruiting and everything all rolled 477 00:27:56,320 --> 00:28:00,320 Speaker 1: into one. And I think they can stop those California 478 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 1: stars from being so transient. I mean, you look at 479 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 1: Ohio State, their quarterbacks from California, Alabama their quarterbacks from California. 480 00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:12,159 Speaker 1: What are you gonna do air quarterbacks from California? What 481 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:13,680 Speaker 1: are you gonna do? The rest of the day, Eric, 482 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 1: I got a lot of writing to do the rest 483 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 1: of the day. I'm gonna write a column on what 484 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:22,959 Speaker 1: the next steps should look like. And then we have 485 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:26,439 Speaker 1: the beautiful college football playoffs show tonight. Wouldn't that be 486 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 1: wild if all the tumblers fell in Notre Dame somehow 487 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 1: backed into the playoff picture. Well, if somebody slips up 488 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 1: here in these conference title games, if Alabama loses, Notre 489 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 1: Dame may may slip in there. And then who's coaching 490 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 1: Notre Dame in the bowl game? Well, they are not 491 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 1: gonna or they're not gonna have an interim coach right now. 492 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 1: I think they would appoint one at that point. But again, 493 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 1: you're gonna have a tug of war with Brian Kelly. 494 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 1: Want to pull some people to LSUS. I know it. 495 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 1: Maybe you and me coach and Notre Dame in the 496 00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 1: bowl game? Well, o'klum was bringing back Bob Stoops. Can 497 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 1: Notre Dame bring back lou Holtzer Rudy? How about Rudy 498 00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 1: coaches him? Then I'm leaving the beat. I'd rather see 499 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 1: somebody from the media coach. Eric. Thanks for joining us now, 500 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 1: you've got a busy day. We appreciate your time. Thank 501 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,760 Speaker 1: you for having me on that's Eric Hansen. He covers 502 00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:28,000 Speaker 1: Notre Dame and he covers them for the South Bench Tribute. Well, 503 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 1: that's one of those where you're looking for answers, but 504 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 1: the answers you want are from Brian Kelly, Like when 505 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 1: did he know why are you leaving? Then? You know, 506 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 1: in his introductory press conference, maybe somebody at LSU asked, hey, 507 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 1: why did you leave Notre Dame. Now he might just say, look, 508 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 1: I couldn't pass up the opportunity to bring in another 509 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,720 Speaker 1: national championship here or whatever it is. I don't know 510 00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 1: if you get the full disclosure there, but I would 511 00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 1: be curious because he might say all of those things 512 00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 1: that I've been telling you as to why he would leave. 513 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 1: That's a tough job to walk away from. I mean, 514 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 1: that's it's mind boggling. Now. If you said it to 515 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 1: me ten years ago, I'd say there's no way. But 516 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 1: in today's college football world, I get it. You know 517 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:25,880 Speaker 1: that money, that prestige recruiting. I don't have restrictions the 518 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 1: way I did it Notre Dame. I get it. Yeah, 519 00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 1: see right, I mean, did you say, like triple your 520 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 1: salary and go to a place that you can win. Yeah, 521 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 1: it gonna be tough, though it would be tough like 522 00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 1: weekend and week out. It's not like you go, hey, 523 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 1: you know this week we're playing Navy. Yeah, Paul, if 524 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:51,080 Speaker 1: you were in Notre Dame and all the people in 525 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 1: college football is going on right now, would you be 526 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,160 Speaker 1: less likely or more likely to join the Big Ten 527 00:30:56,240 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 1: or another conference? Well? I thought the ACC made sense 528 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 1: because it allowed them in other sports in basketball, and 529 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 1: you could truly be in the ACC, and it felt 530 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 1: like it was, you know, something different for Notre Dame. 531 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 1: Set up different rivalries. You have to deal with Clemson, 532 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:20,680 Speaker 1: maybe Florida State comes back in a week. For US 533 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 1: has been wonderful this year, you know, Pitt. But I 534 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 1: it's still that value of being a standalone independent and 535 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 1: you know there's value in that pick and choose who 536 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 1: you want to play. You can sort of, you know, 537 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:41,560 Speaker 1: manicure your schedule. That says, all right, we got a 538 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:44,880 Speaker 1: couple of building rivalries, but we can have these games 539 00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 1: where we know we're going to get to eight nine 540 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 1: wins every single year, and I think that there's value 541 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:55,320 Speaker 1: in that as well. Shane in South Bend, Indiana, Hey, Shane, 542 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 1: thanks for holding what's on your mind today? The Dame 543 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:05,680 Speaker 1: six one years old, five nine ninety five, long time listener, 544 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,560 Speaker 1: waking up here in South bankis is just a shock. 545 00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 1: We got the news to going on late last night 546 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:17,040 Speaker 1: through the local news and the scuttle Buddies that Brian 547 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:21,800 Speaker 1: was just completely just exhausted with getting these kids to class. 548 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 1: It's a completely different college than than where he's going, 549 00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 1: and they're getting to the point where here, here's my thing, 550 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:32,280 Speaker 1: here's here's what I want to know. So we have 551 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:35,200 Speaker 1: a personal friend. We grew up in Marcellist, Michigan. We 552 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,840 Speaker 1: have a friend, Matt Looker. He's a great guy, great coach, 553 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 1: good for Green Bay. But again, Babe is sitting for 554 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:47,240 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. So here's my thought. Pattis tall up. Matt, 555 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:50,880 Speaker 1: give him as much money as wants. Sat his family 556 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:54,760 Speaker 1: moved back up into this area and less just have 557 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 1: a great great twenty twenty two. I mean he'd deliver it. 558 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 1: And he were chest to that point where these kids 559 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:06,200 Speaker 1: they work be in day out being for their practices, 560 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 1: but they still got to go to class. They're in 561 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 1: matt calibern Like Alabama, Georgia. We know about here in 562 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 1: South then, but you're bringing in another coach. It's not 563 00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 1: gonna that's not gonna. That's not gonna happen. You know, 564 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,160 Speaker 1: Matt's a great guy, he's great with these kids. But 565 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 1: you know, Notre Dame's Notre Dame. We have a ten 566 00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:30,040 Speaker 1: win season. We're happy. But for Brian Kelly to turn 567 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:35,720 Speaker 1: this now when the situations were attack today, that's just shocking. 568 00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 1: Eric has it Eric's job today. He hasn't suck. Yeah, 569 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:42,520 Speaker 1: thank you, Shane. Yeah, I know that. You know we're 570 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 1: gonna have these hypothetical situations. But do I think Matt 571 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,400 Speaker 1: Laflour is going to go, Hey, I'm tired of babysitting 572 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers not leaving. Now, they could be the best 573 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: team in the NFL, got a chance to go to 574 00:33:55,720 --> 00:34:00,280 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. I had been told this years ago 575 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 1: that if Brian Kelly ever left, John Harbaugh of the 576 00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 1: Ravens was going to be the guy that they would target. Now, 577 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 1: this is years ago, and I was told by somebody 578 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:15,839 Speaker 1: involved in what would be a coaching search. Now, that 579 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:22,240 Speaker 1: doesn't mean John was interested. It was you have certain coaches. 580 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:24,319 Speaker 1: It's a wish list. It's just like what happened with 581 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,800 Speaker 1: Mike Tomlin in USC And it's not that I'm saying 582 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,359 Speaker 1: that Notre Dame was you know that John Harball wanted 583 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,040 Speaker 1: Notre Dame. I don't want it to be twisted. I'm 584 00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 1: already in trouble enough with the college football insiders. I 585 00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:39,040 Speaker 1: don't want to add anything here. But I think that 586 00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:42,279 Speaker 1: they were targeting John Harbaugh if that was going to 587 00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:45,880 Speaker 1: be the case. Whether John would have been interested, I 588 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:49,239 Speaker 1: have no idea, but that was the name that came 589 00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:54,239 Speaker 1: up quite quite a long time ago. But your Notre Dame, 590 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:58,800 Speaker 1: and you should shoot high. Now, l SU was desperate. 591 00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:02,319 Speaker 1: Notre Dame shouldn't be sprint. Notre Dame should say, all right, 592 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 1: we got to get the right guy who understands everything, 593 00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:08,080 Speaker 1: because this is not just go out there and coach football. 594 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:10,399 Speaker 1: There's a whole lot more that goes on at Notre 595 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:15,920 Speaker 1: Dame than almost any other school. And I think, you know, 596 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:22,680 Speaker 1: Brian probably will be a little bit of exhale. Even 597 00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 1: though you're gonna have to play tough football programs, it 598 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:27,840 Speaker 1: certainly is nice where you go. Can I get this 599 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:31,279 Speaker 1: guy in? Can we try to get this guy in? Oh, 600 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:33,520 Speaker 1: we can't get this guy in. You're not gonna have 601 00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:35,400 Speaker 1: to worry about that. Now you're gonna have to be 602 00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:38,799 Speaker 1: fighting everybody else. Get out a whole lot of competition, 603 00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:42,200 Speaker 1: because it just feels now Notre Dame is not as 604 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:45,319 Speaker 1: special as it was when I was growing up in 605 00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:49,160 Speaker 1: the seventies watching Notre Dame football, you know, that was 606 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:52,279 Speaker 1: like going to church. In fact, I used to say 607 00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:55,000 Speaker 1: to my mom on Sunday morning, they'd have a replay 608 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,400 Speaker 1: of the Notre Dame game from Saturday and then they 609 00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 1: would have a one hour condensed version, and I would 610 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:02,239 Speaker 1: say to my mom, can I just stay and watch 611 00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:06,960 Speaker 1: Notre Dame football? And my mom said, yes, that's how 612 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:10,160 Speaker 1: important Notre Dame football was in my house. Now, I 613 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 1: didn't wear church clothes, but I think I might have 614 00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 1: combed my hair and brushed my teeth before I watched 615 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,880 Speaker 1: Lindsay Nelson and Paul Horning with Notre Dame football. But 616 00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:21,400 Speaker 1: now and then, these kids don't grow up with that tradition. 617 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 1: Their parents maybe did, but these kids, it's not about hey, dad, 618 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:29,239 Speaker 1: I want to go to Notre Dame because it's I 619 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:31,120 Speaker 1: want to go where I can play. I want to 620 00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:33,279 Speaker 1: go where they have a good offense or you know, 621 00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:37,200 Speaker 1: they're known for this, they want to play on Sunday, 622 00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:43,799 Speaker 1: and Chip Kelly or Brian Kelly is going to be 623 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 1: recruiting kids at LSU who plan on playing on Sunday. 624 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,120 Speaker 1: I don't know if that can be said for how 625 00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:54,440 Speaker 1: he recruit or recruited at Notre Dame. Last call for 626 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 1: phone calls. What we learned, what's in store tomorrow?

How about David Shaw for 665 00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:05,719 Speaker 1: Notre Dame Stanford. You're used to the academic requirements. He's 666 00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:09,200 Speaker 1: been a really good football coach, although Stanford feels like 667 00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:14,120 Speaker 1: it's a little bit on the decline, but he would 668 00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:19,360 Speaker 1: be well versed in getting these these athletes in recruiting. 669 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:23,000 Speaker 1: Just throw out names, Yes, Polly, it makes a lot 670 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:24,879 Speaker 1: of sense. It would have been a lot of sense 671 00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 1: three years ago when he was rolling in Stanford and 672 00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:30,239 Speaker 1: he couldn't get he was three and nine. This year, Yah, 673 00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:34,160 Speaker 1: Stanford is down down. Oh yes. I remember watching one 674 00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:37,840 Speaker 1: of their games and I thought, where's the crowd? And 675 00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:40,600 Speaker 1: it was a home game. There was nobody there. They 676 00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 1: were probably all studying Craig and Washington. Hey Craig, what's 677 00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:50,120 Speaker 1: on your mind today? Hey Pete? But hey, I got 678 00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:52,799 Speaker 1: a statement kind of a question. I would like to 679 00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:55,320 Speaker 1: see Dan Quinn maybe try and get out of Dallas 680 00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:58,319 Speaker 1: and come back up here to Washington and revitalize our 681 00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:01,359 Speaker 1: defense up here. Get a run game going again, if 682 00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:04,239 Speaker 1: any coach was going to come up here, I would 683 00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:07,839 Speaker 1: root for that guy. Okay, and my question would be, uh, 684 00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:11,040 Speaker 1: whatever happened to Doug Peterson from the Philadelphia Eagles. How 685 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:15,240 Speaker 1: Come he's never mentioned in any football college coach maybe 686 00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:17,799 Speaker 1: thoughts or anything like that. Man, I appreciate your call. Thanks, 687 00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:20,520 Speaker 1: Alan Craig, Thank you. I was thinking about that with 688 00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 1: Doug Peterson. I don't even what he's doing now. Is 689 00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:26,479 Speaker 1: he an assistant coach somewhere mclovin. I saw him hanging 690 00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:28,480 Speaker 1: out with Frank Reich in Indianapolis. I don't know if 691 00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:30,920 Speaker 1: he was consulting, but I don't he was at a practice, 692 00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:33,160 Speaker 1: but I don't think he's coaching. But I'll double check that. Man, 693 00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:35,239 Speaker 1: I've never that call, is right? I have you ever 694 00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:38,440 Speaker 1: heard his? No? No, not at all. John and Oregon, 695 00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 1: Hey John, what's on your mind today? Hey? DP and 696 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,440 Speaker 1: the Danas? Hey, just a real quick comment on the 697 00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:49,520 Speaker 1: idea that USC is this the best job? And if 698 00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:52,840 Speaker 1: what you want is ease of travel, like say, driving 699 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:55,640 Speaker 1: one hundred miles from your campus, I get that. But 700 00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:58,160 Speaker 1: if you look at a list of coaches at USC 701 00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:02,680 Speaker 1: since the night eighteen eight Ted Tolner fired, Larry Smith 702 00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:06,200 Speaker 1: fired John Robinson. In ninety seven, a second time around, 703 00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:11,920 Speaker 1: Paul Hackett fired Pete Carroll left under a cloud of 704 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:17,239 Speaker 1: probation to the NFL. Lane Kiffin abandoned twenty thirteen at 705 00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:22,600 Speaker 1: Ogeron not retained his interim twenty thirteen Steve Sarksian. You 706 00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:26,359 Speaker 1: know his situation, Clay Helton fired. Where's the if it's 707 00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:30,520 Speaker 1: such a great job and the best job, where's the 708 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:33,520 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame coaches since nineteen eighty? Well, I got 709 00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:36,000 Speaker 1: to go back to somebody like John McKay. Now, you 710 00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:38,759 Speaker 1: could say it's all just bad coaches. You could say that, 711 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:44,760 Speaker 1: but Lane Kiffin's are doing pretty good at Old Miss Well. 712 00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:48,840 Speaker 1: You can't just blow by Pete Carroll's contributions to USC. 713 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:52,600 Speaker 1: I mean, it made him the College Hall of Fame coach. 714 00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:59,080 Speaker 1: But I think they've they've stayed loyal to some candidates 715 00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:02,040 Speaker 1: to coaches, and I think that they've done a poor 716 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:05,200 Speaker 1: job in who they've hired at USC. You know, you 717 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:07,839 Speaker 1: get into that, Oh you got to hire a USC guy, 718 00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 1: You got to hire a Michigan guy, And I want 719 00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:14,960 Speaker 1: to hire the best guy. Michigan hired. Brady Hoke he 720 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:17,480 Speaker 1: didn't work out. Now he has since worked out at 721 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:20,319 Speaker 1: San Diego State. But you've got to hire the right 722 00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 1: guy for the right situation, the best coach, and USC 723 00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:27,359 Speaker 1: has all that talent that's there. But I think they've 724 00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:29,960 Speaker 1: done a poor job in who they've hired over the years. 725 00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:32,680 Speaker 1: But I can't blow by Pete Carroll and just say 726 00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:36,200 Speaker 1: yeah and Pete, Yeah, he left in a cloud of probation. 727 00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:39,319 Speaker 1: Yes he did. Zack and Charlotte, Hey, Zach, what's on 728 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:45,719 Speaker 1: your mind? Hey? But yep, DP, let's keep this thing rolling. Man. 729 00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:51,279 Speaker 1: You know who I'm hearing to, Notre Dame brand of 730 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:58,120 Speaker 1: the show, Nicholas Saban Junior. The third day. Okay, well, 731 00:42:58,360 --> 00:43:01,080 Speaker 1: what do you think think about this man? He's created 732 00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:03,440 Speaker 1: a monster down in Alabama. I think he's getting sick 733 00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:06,640 Speaker 1: and tired of it. Head up the South Bend and 734 00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:10,440 Speaker 1: ride out on a cloud. That's all I got, all right, 735 00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:13,120 Speaker 1: thank you, Zach. Yeah, I know that Saban came out 736 00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 1: and scolded the fan base. They're spoiled. I don't know 737 00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:19,760 Speaker 1: if that's reason enough to leave Alabama because you're mad 738 00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:26,279 Speaker 1: that the fans have my expectations. I don't think Nick goes. 739 00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:31,040 Speaker 1: I need a new challenge. I think he still embraces 740 00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:35,560 Speaker 1: that they just slipped by Auburn. They got Georgia coming up. 741 00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:40,719 Speaker 1: He still has challenges there in the SEC. Not necessarily 742 00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:43,879 Speaker 1: weekend in, week out, but you're in a year out. 743 00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:46,480 Speaker 1: He certainly does. Let's go around the room.

He also 747 00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:57,920 Speaker 1: expects Russell Wilson to be done in Seattle. All right, mclovin. 748 00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:00,480 Speaker 1: David Carter didn't understand why Brian Kelly would leave Notre 749 00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:08,000 Speaker 1: Dame for Lsu. Well, it's a shock, but you just 750 00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:11,680 Speaker 1: don't leave Notre Dame unless you're told to leave Notre Dame. 751 00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:14,960 Speaker 1: Seaton O'Connor Junior, the Third Market spears, if you got 752 00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:18,239 Speaker 1: the chance, would saw Dan Orlovsky in half?
