My friend, welcome back. Are thank 9 00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:31,160 Speaker 1: you for having me. I am good, ty, I was 10 00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:33,040 Speaker 1: so good. I was talking over you as you finished 11 00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:35,199 Speaker 1: the end of your sentence. I'm very good. This is 12 00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 1: a topic near and dear to my hearts. A lot 13 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 1: of people, including you, and I have long said the 14 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 1: life blood, that's the word, the lifeblood of this sport 15 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:49,199 Speaker 1: is recruiting. To that, I say, maybe not anymore with 16 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,640 Speaker 1: how quickly recruiting can go awry, where you're so excited 17 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 1: about your new right tackle and what he's in the 18 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,280 Speaker 1: portal in a year and a half, so, I think 19 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 1: recruiting has taken a hit. But the general tenor of 20 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: the college football and college football adjacent message board is thriving. 21 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:13,319 Speaker 1: It's strong, the community is as weird as ever, it 22 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:18,319 Speaker 1: gets as off topic as ever, and I think people 23 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 1: instead of coming together to be thrilled to be upset, 24 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: largely upset about their team as a group, as a community, 25 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 1: as digital friends. There is something now that there is 26 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 1: that shift maybe away from like oh I heard that 27 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,759 Speaker 1: this kid was making a secret visit or this kid's 28 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 1: uncle actually played here, and that's going to you know, 29 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: all the like the surrounding tidbits around recruiting that pop 30 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 1: up on message boards. Maybe those aren't going to be 31 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 1: as fruitful and as busy. But if we've learned anything, 32 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 1: people love to congregate online. That starts out as one thing, 33 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 1: and then it goes to a funny place, a weird place, 34 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: a problematic place, and all of those adjectives are present 35 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 1: and thriving on your college football and college football and 36 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 1: Jason message boards, and I love it. Well, yeah, and 37 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,920 Speaker 1: if building a team and the lifeblood of college football 38 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 1: in that sense is recruiting, the fabric of college football. 39 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 2: Fandom is very much the message board. Yeah, your team's 40 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 2: message board. Now, over the course of time, I guess 41 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 2: that has broadened out onto social media, but still the 42 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:40,960 Speaker 2: real diehards are on one, are on many message boards. 43 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 2: We have done this episode a couple times over. Now, 44 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 2: we of course can go no further without giving credit 45 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 2: to our friends out at more Geniuses, the messageboard geniuses. 46 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 2: They've got a podcast, they've got a very popular Twitter 47 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 2: account at bore Geniuses. They're all over the place. They've 48 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 2: been all over the place for a couple of years running. 49 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 2: They do yeomen's work putting this account together, collecting screenshots 50 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 2: some of the goofier screenshots in message boardland that they 51 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 2: post out to their account. As we have time and again, 52 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 2: we would not be able to do this episode without 53 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 2: the fine work that those guys do. So go and 54 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,079 Speaker 2: check them out, throw them a follow if you have 55 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,799 Speaker 2: yet to do so, if you're into all things social media, 56 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 2: check out their podcast, etc. 57 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 1: Etc. 58 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 2: What we've got here before us today is a collection, yes, 59 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 2: a collection of postings that have been on that account 60 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 2: over the last month, two months, three months or so, 61 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 2: things that got us thinking, got the wheels turning, that 62 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 2: we thought maybe we could speak to more broadly as 63 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 2: we sort of dive into the depths of college football 64 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 2: fandom out on respective message boards. Before we go any 65 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 2: further on that front, though, I would ask you, please, 66 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 2: what is the current state of your message board participation, 67 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 2: Because you're a little bit more active in this world 68 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 2: than I am, at least as a lurker. 69 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm an active lurker. I'm an active reader. My 70 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:19,600 Speaker 1: posting has gone to basically zero. I just I don't know. 71 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:21,479 Speaker 1: It's not really a time thing because I read it 72 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:25,480 Speaker 1: all the time. But I don't find myself having things 73 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 1: to contribute as much as maybe I used to on 74 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 1: my various secret accounts across the Internet, my burners across 75 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 1: the world wide Web. Can I tell you something that 76 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: I've seen over the years that is unique to message 77 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 1: boards almost? I mean you'll see it on social media 78 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: as well. Have you ever seen a post on a 79 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: message board? I don't know what you read, notre Dame, 80 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: Penn State or general whatever. Have you ever seen a 81 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 1: post on a message board where somebody announces that a 82 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: beloved message board member has passed. 83 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,080 Speaker 2: I don't mean to laugh, but I've seen this.

I don't say this 89 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:18,839 Speaker 1: to be funny. It's very strange sometimes to see news 90 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: like that happen on an Iowa state or a cow 91 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 1: Bear's message board where suddenly they're eulogizing somebody from their community. 92 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: And I just always find it interesting that under that 93 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 1: post will be the person will say like, Okay, Steve 94 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: the Bear, cyclone earl or whatever has passed, but their 95 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: signature is still girls jumping on trampolines from The Man 96 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 1: Show in nineteen ninety six, And you're just like, Man, 97 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 1: just for this one post, guys, could we turn it off? 98 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 1: But it is it is a you know, it's there's 99 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 1: a lot of instances where you could say, like, this 100 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,279 Speaker 1: is a lot of work to just not go to therapy. 101 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: Dudes will do anything to just not go to therapy. 102 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 1: But I admire the ability for fans to come and 103 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 1: get together behind a common cause. Right, you have the 104 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 1: live game threads where everybody's just like no, no, no, no, 105 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: no fire everybody no no no oh wait wait wait 106 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 1: wait right that everybody's reacting in the millisecond.

Are there 114 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:40,679 Speaker 1: Indiana sites? 115 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,720 Speaker 2: I'm not aware of that many, but I realized you're 116 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:48,679 Speaker 2: picking Crimson Crimson Quary was the old espimanation Indiana sites. 117 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: Okay, did anybody read it?

You 171 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 2: are here for some of these message boards postings, And 172 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 2: why don't we start out on tiger Net Dan of course? 173 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 1: Where else? 174 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 2: Very popular Clemson website. The handle is fast Chad. The 175 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 2: title is can we claim eminent domain on ESPN? What 176 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 2: this is from May to twenty ninth. 177 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 1: Eminent domain being the government's ability to seize private property 178 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: and turn it public while compensating that private person in 179 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,319 Speaker 1: a fair way. Allegedly that's the intent of it. I 180 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 1: think is it the fifth Amendment? The fourth? I think 181 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 1: it's the fifth Amendment. 182 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 2: I am not certain that this is the intended use 183 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 2: of eminent domain. 184 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:14,079 Speaker 1: I guess pleading the fifth would be the fifth Amendment. 185 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, having the best home schedule in all of football 186 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 2: for the twenty twenty sixth season got me to thinking, yeah, 187 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 2: can Clemson pick who we won on campus for the 188 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 2: broadcasts by claiming eminent domain or whatever that. 189 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,840 Speaker 1: Is or whatever that is? Okay, eminent domain is not 190 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: the Fifth Amendment, it was proposed to be a part 191 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 1: of it. 192 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 2: Continue, it would be cool if we could cherry pick 193 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 2: the best broadcast teams and keep guys like Scott van 194 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:43,440 Speaker 2: Pelt catch it astray who by the way, not on 195 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:45,719 Speaker 2: a broadcast team, not on a brocaste. No, it's a 196 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,719 Speaker 2: sports center host and you know, golf event host. Keep 197 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 2: guys like Scott Van Pelt off campus. There are some 198 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 2: other details in here. I will skip to the part 199 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,240 Speaker 2: here towards the end where it says he stepped on 200 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 2: my foot at a golf tournament a few years ago 201 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 2: and never boze. There is no place for people like 202 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 2: that at Clemson Go Tigers, Dan. 203 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: No place Scott Vanpelt accidentally stepped on this fast Chad 204 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 1: Fast Chad's foot at a golf tournament and didn't apologize. 205 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 1: Everything I've heard about Scott Van Pelt as like a 206 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 1: person has been very positive. 207 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 2: Correct he's been on the show, Wait on the show 208 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,840 Speaker 2: when he was on the show, and I can say yes, 209 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 2: through numerous sources, Let's say, everything that I have heard 210 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 2: about Scott Van Pelt as a human being is overwhelmingly positive. 211 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 2: A very very good dude for what I've I've never 212 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 2: met him, but from what I'm told, he is a 213 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 2: very very good dude. 214 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:41,840 Speaker 1: By the way, I'm old enough now that when you 215 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,080 Speaker 1: tell me that somebody has appeared on the show, I 216 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 1: just trust you and have little to no recollection. If 217 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,680 Speaker 1: you were to say, yeah, noted author Michael Crichton came 218 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 1: on the show to talk about Miami football, you would 219 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,440 Speaker 1: try to say that sounds right. Did we talk about 220 00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 1: the Pelican Brief, and you're like, yeah, for like a 221 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: weirdly long amount of time we talked about the Pelican 222 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 1: Brief and the film adaptation. So I just trust you 223 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 1: implicitly here. I don't think schools can control broadcast teams 224 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:16,679 Speaker 1: who are allowed to are not allowed to come, though 225 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 1: I did when I saw this. I did think about 226 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 1: when Jason Bennetti talked about not being able to watch 227 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 1: his monitor in real time right and has to sort 228 00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:28,840 Speaker 1: of wait to make calls that like it seems too 229 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: long when a ball clearly crosses the plane and the 230 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: announcers aren't saying something. And so I do want schools 231 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 1: to take a bigger hand in outfitting their stadiums to 232 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 1: be as precise and high quality as possible for you know, TV, 233 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:48,079 Speaker 1: because TV's playing the bills. So let's let's use some of. 234 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 2: That sweet sweet cash to to up the tech tie. 235 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 1: How about that from fast Chad? Okay, I don't think. 236 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 1: I don't think you can use I mean at domain. 237 00:12:56,040 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 1: I don't think you can seize upon uh no, noa 238 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 1: eagle only or something to call your games, though that 239 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 1: would put him in a weird spot and kind of funny. 240 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:08,199 Speaker 1: I don't think this is happening. 241 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 2: I don't think this is happening. I think the closest 242 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:17,440 Speaker 2: that you can come to forcing the issue is like 243 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:22,559 Speaker 2: what happened up at Penn State this past season when 244 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 2: both Game Day and Big Noon were on campus at 245 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 2: the same time, and the students tried to organize something 246 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 2: of a boycott to keep fans away from Big Noon 247 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 2: and instead support Game Day because of the game time, right, 248 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 2: because of the game time, believe for the Ohio State game. 249 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:47,199 Speaker 2: I guess if more of that kind of catches fire, 250 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 2: perhaps you could have a little bit more hand in this. 251 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,959 Speaker 2: But eminent domain, I don't this may not be the 252 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 2: proper application for eminent domain. 253 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:58,120 Speaker 1: I kind of love the idea that if you hate 254 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 1: Big Noon or you hate Game Day, that you could 255 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: peacefully sabotage their interest in coming back. I kind of love, like, 256 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 1: I don't know how creative Penn State got. Obviously the 257 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 1: most effective thing would just be like not showing up. 258 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:15,559 Speaker 2: There were people, I believe, if memory serves, and I 259 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 2: could be wrong with pen stators, can yell at me, 260 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 2: I believe were there were some folks in the background 261 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 2: giving the finger to the camera. 262 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 1: That's not good enough. 263 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 2: Though, and it was sparsely attended. 264 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 1: No, it was sparsely attended because game Day obviously has 265 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 1: the longer tradition and the bigger brand name. I just 266 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: wonder if you could put something in the like Rob 267 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 1: Stone or Urban Meyer or Matt Liinert, like their vision 268 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 1: right their eyeline that distracts them so repeatedly. 269 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 2: Like they do when somebody's trying to shoot free throws. 270 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 1: Yes, okay, that's what I would do that it was 271 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 1: it would be who's the school? I think it's Arizona State. 272 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 1: They have the free throw like theater. Yes, where there 273 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 1: is there are curtains and then they open the curtain 274 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 1: to reveal something insane right before the shooter is about 275 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 1: to get the ball or something. I want to say, 276 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 1: Michael Phelps participated in that, wearing his gold medals and 277 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 1: speedo and cap. I like the idea of peaceful sabotage. 278 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 1: Peaceful sabotage. That really just I don't know how you 279 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 1: would do that again with Scott van Pelt, because he's 280 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: such a pros pro. I don't think you could. I 281 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 1: think he would embrace it. 282 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 2: He would steer into it if he did something insane 283 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 2: in his eye line. 284 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 1: Yeah right, but Urban Meyer, I think we know the 285 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: path that would get him distracted. In terms of content, 286 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 1: I think he's It wouldn't be terribly difficult. It would 287 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 1: be like a beginner's level peaceful sabotage. But I wonder 288 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: if you are an Ohio State fan, or Penn State, 289 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 1: or Michigan or any of the places that don't like 290 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 1: the idea of noon kickoffs all the time, especially Ohio State, 291 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 1: how can you wreak havoc on the focus of big 292 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 1: noon kickoff whatever that show is called pregame, Big noon pregame. 293 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 1: How do you do that? I think the creative college 294 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 1: minds that have produced all of those game day signs 295 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 1: over the years could come up with something pretty incredible. 296 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 2: Let's go over to Sickham three sixty five, Baylor site, 297 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 2: Bell County Bear has weighed in with some conference realignment 298 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 2: takes here, Dan. 299 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 1: Okay, Bell County Bear, Baylor site Baylor three sixty five. 300 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 2: Sickham three sixty five six. Yeah, of course, Baylor and 301 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 2: other small TV market schools Vandy, Duke, SMU, Tulane, et 302 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 2: cetera just need to rip the band aid off and 303 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 2: form their own conference by twenty thirty one. 304 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 1: Imo. 305 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 2: Yes, in my opinion, Dan, Okay, so listen, I have 306 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 2: actually seen this post at a bunch of places. Okay, 307 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 2: it's clearly not from a TV executive. Yeah, it's clearly 308 00:16:54,960 --> 00:17:00,480 Speaker 2: not from anybody who I think understands the state of 309 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 2: revenue in the sport. Right now, if you are a 310 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 2: school like a Baylor, if you are a school like 311 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 2: a Vandy, a Duke, I'm not going to include too 312 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 2: lane in this. 313 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 1: You are I think. 314 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 2: In an advantageous spot now because of the playoff, because 315 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 2: they keep expanding this thing, because you are in one 316 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,640 Speaker 2: of the bigger conferences, because you get more payouts than 317 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 2: you would if you were to split off and start 318 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 2: your own TV conference with exclusively small TV market schools. Sure, okay, 319 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 2: so by doing this, yes, you may spit in the 320 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:40,640 Speaker 2: eye of the so called powerbrokers of college football by 321 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,080 Speaker 2: starting your own thing, but you would essentially be cutting 322 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,159 Speaker 2: off your nose to spite your face because the money, 323 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,919 Speaker 2: which is now unfortunately the real life blood of the sport, 324 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 2: the money would not be as plentiful as it is 325 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 2: if you just stay where you're at, right. I get 326 00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:59,359 Speaker 2: the appeal of it. I get that this is popular 327 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 2: fodder from me such boards. I obviously understand that Tulane, 328 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 2: I would presume would love to be in a conference. 329 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 2: I got them more money, right but right now, as 330 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,120 Speaker 2: it stands, if you're Baylor, if you're SMU, if you're Duke, 331 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 2: actually I shouldn't eve include SMU in here. SMU is 332 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:15,960 Speaker 2: doing it for free. That's how much they want to 333 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:16,680 Speaker 2: be in a bigger house. 334 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 1: True. 335 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,200 Speaker 2: So this is a last one of those message board 336 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 2: things that I think is fun, probably plays well out 337 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 2: on places like Reddit, but is not in reality, as 338 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 2: you might be surprised to hear. 339 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 1: Dan, Yeah, all that realistic. Yeah, a lot of vibes 340 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:38,719 Speaker 1: similar to we're going to start our own prom We 341 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 1: didn't get invited, We're starting our around. They did get invited, though. 342 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 2: Baylor's in the Big twelve van, He's in the SEC 343 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 2: the ACC, SMU's in the ACC. 344 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 1: They're in right, they're in the in the SCC in 345 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:55,480 Speaker 1: this example. But yeah, all of these teams are in 346 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 1: pretty good spots now with the ACC settlement, with all 347 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 1: of the the I'm sent in Florida State stuff, seemingly 348 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,400 Speaker 1: for now in the rear view mirror, I think all 349 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 1: parties agreed to settle, and you know, everything is kumba 350 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 1: off for now with some adjustments. That's that's going to 351 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,640 Speaker 1: be a tough sell. The under six foot basketball League 352 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:18,159 Speaker 1: for you know, the Hallmark Channel to scoop up the 353 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 1: rights to, it's a hard sell. I appreciate the the 354 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: outlaw nature of that, thinking they'll like, screw the system. 355 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 1: I appreciate we're I do appreciate that we're doing our 356 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:35,239 Speaker 1: own thing. But also if they start the you know, 357 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 1: the the Underdog Conference or something, and then the Big 358 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:41,719 Speaker 1: Ten is like, well we want two more teams, Baylor 359 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 1: and SMU will be like, well what about us, right, 360 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 1: and bat their eyes a little bit. 361 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I will say this, Yeah, the poster here is 362 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 2: being clearly taken out of context. I don't know, okay, 363 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 2: how this paranoff came about. Okay, And for as great 364 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 2: as the Boor geniuses are, and they are one, as 365 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 2: I said, they are doing God's work, it's just a snapshot. 366 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 2: It's a snapshot. You don't always get the full context 367 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 2: right for it. So in a vacuum, yes, this sounds 368 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 2: a little bit ludicrous, but as it stands, TV smaller 369 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,640 Speaker 2: TV market schools banding together to form a bigger thing 370 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 2: does not necessarily mean it's going to be more profitable. 371 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:23,439 Speaker 2: It may be may play better online. But again, if 372 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 2: we're if we're trying to move all of these programs forward, 373 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:29,239 Speaker 2: I don't know if this is the way to do it. 374 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 1: Yeah. Also, I mean stuff like this comes up every 375 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,120 Speaker 1: so often, like how do you organize this sport? And 376 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 1: with the big ten in SEC dominating is what is 377 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:42,720 Speaker 1: a way to create appeal nationally as teams are jumping 378 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:46,480 Speaker 1: around and conference futures are in doubt, creating like taking 379 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: Duke away from North Carolina or Baylor away from TCU 380 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 1: and SMU away from regional schools Like SMU is away 381 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 1: from regional schools in the ACC. I don't know that 382 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: any ACC school at the moment, and maybe it'll happen 383 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 1: with time feels anything about SMU or SMU fans beyond like, 384 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:06,360 Speaker 1: oh yeah, I went to Dallas. It was pretty fun. 385 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 1: The fans were nice and they were pumped to be 386 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:09,800 Speaker 1: in the ACC and we had a good time. Or 387 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 1: a bunch of SMU fans came to you know, take 388 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 1: your pick, Clemson or Florida State or Boston College and 389 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 1: they were it was like cool to have like a 390 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 1: new group, but from a national perspective, like, if it's 391 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:25,120 Speaker 1: going to happen, it's going to take a while for 392 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 1: teams to or for for everybody else to get used 393 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: to not seeing the familiar matchups we are we're used 394 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:36,199 Speaker 1: to seeing. And so again I can appreciate the outlaw 395 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:41,399 Speaker 1: nature of this thinking, but unfortunately it's gonna get a 396 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:44,199 Speaker 1: lot worse for this type of thinking than better in 397 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: the near future. 398 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean they're being priced out of the market. Yeah, 399 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:49,879 Speaker 2: is what it amounts to. And by the way, did 400 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 2: you see the Texas Tech thing? The text's eric expect 401 00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 2: million dollars fifty five million dollars, not my money. 402 00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 1: Give people the context here. So with the house settlement 403 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 1: and with how much Texas Tech is pouring into football 404 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 1: and athletics as a whole, the number that is expected 405 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 1: to pay out to all Texas Tech athletes in every 406 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: sport is estimated. Source once again, who was it? I 407 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 1: want to get this right? Was fifty five million dollars? 408 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 1: Fifty five million dollars? Should we just make up the source? 409 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: That is sure? 410 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,479 Speaker 2: That is a lot of potatoes. Fifty five million dollars. 411 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 1: It's a it's a depressing number. I'm happy they're getting it, 412 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 1: but it's just like if you're an ad, if you're 413 00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 1: a president anywhere else, basically, then you know one of 414 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:39,640 Speaker 1: seven to nine schools, you're like, well, this is insane. 415 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 1: This is a crazy number. That might work out for 416 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 1: a few years for Texas Tech, and then somebody, what's 417 00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 1: the go to you guys name is going to get 418 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 1: sick of paying it. 419 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:55,200 Speaker 2: Cody Campbell, Cody Campbell, Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right. Well, actually, 420 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 2: on that note, that's a perfect segue into this posting 421 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:00,680 Speaker 2: from Scoop Duck. 422 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,160 Speaker 1: Dan, have you ever been to Scoop Duck? I can't 423 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,160 Speaker 1: say that I have. I think it's is it on three? 424 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:07,199 Speaker 1: Not a member? I've heard of it. 425 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 2: Blazon oh three? Title full disclosure? Did you say blazon ovary? No? 426 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 2: Blazon oh three? Oh okay, blazing overy much different thing. 427 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. 428 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 2: The recruiting industry needs to demand full transparency. Yes, it's 429 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,199 Speaker 2: no longer simply enough to report that a recruit has 430 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:31,639 Speaker 2: quote received an offer, what exactly was offered? What are 431 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 2: the terms, what's the number? Without these specifics, there's no 432 00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 2: real insight, no credible reporting, and no meaningful inside information. 433 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:45,239 Speaker 2: Dan Full disclosure is the title of this posting from 434 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 2: Blazon Oh three zero. 435 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 1: Three, what's the full DISCLOSEE? What is he or she disclosing? Though? Oh, 436 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:55,439 Speaker 1: he's asking for full disclosure of every single detail with 437 00:23:55,600 --> 00:24:01,359 Speaker 1: relation to a recruits offer and anil batanil she. Everything 438 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:04,680 Speaker 1: needs to be out in the open, I believe so. 439 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 2: So it is not at the point yet like the 440 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:14,879 Speaker 2: NFL where all of these contracts are public and you 441 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,719 Speaker 2: know who's getting paid what. One of the reasons they 442 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 2: do that is because there is an enforceable salary cap 443 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,200 Speaker 2: and we know who is being paid what. It makes 444 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 2: for interesting armchair analysis, especially in the offseason. We don't 445 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,880 Speaker 2: have that in college football. This stuff's private, at least 446 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 2: for now. I would be a liar if I said 447 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 2: I knew the specifics of the house settlement that I 448 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 2: don't know how much of this can be made public, 449 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,200 Speaker 2: if at all, if there is really a pathway to that. 450 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:46,680 Speaker 2: Many of the deals that we have seen in the 451 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:48,119 Speaker 2: nl front have all been private. 452 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 1: So far. 453 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 2: It's been this big kloak and dagger thing. Pete Nakos 454 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:53,199 Speaker 2: has done a really good job trying to get to 455 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 2: the bottom of what some of these offers have looked 456 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:59,199 Speaker 2: like I know many others out there. Ex Olsen has 457 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:01,199 Speaker 2: talked a little bit about out of free ESPN, but 458 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:04,639 Speaker 2: it's still very cloak and dagger. I would love to 459 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,399 Speaker 2: know it, but my hunch is that the people doing 460 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 2: the reporting aren't in a position to actually divulge these 461 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:15,879 Speaker 2: secrets because they don't want to burn their sources either. Sure, 462 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 2: so we're at a bit of an impasse. I definitely 463 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 2: appreciate the spirit of this post, though, and I don't 464 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 2: necessarily disagree. 465 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:25,719 Speaker 1: Let me ask you something. Is it so crazy to 466 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 1: say that two four seven on three, whoever ESPN's recruiting outfit, 467 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 1: that they demand each team employ a full time investigative reporter. 468 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 1: Is that too much to ask that the University of 469 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:47,919 Speaker 1: Arizona's on three site employ a full time investigative reporter 470 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 1: who tracks every actually committable offer, every single nil conversation, 471 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:58,840 Speaker 1: and immediately publicizes it for the low price of like 472 00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,479 Speaker 1: two dollars a month that people got a deal on 473 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,399 Speaker 1: on three to get do we think that is a 474 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:08,439 Speaker 1: financially viable strategy, because that's what essentially we're asking to 475 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:12,399 Speaker 1: track down every offer to understand the validity of it 476 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 1: to speak to the coaches, to speak to the family, 477 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:18,360 Speaker 1: to speak to agents or lawyers and get the actual 478 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 1: nil number for every school. I think it's a worthwhile pursuit. 479 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 1: All of these companies will go out of business, but 480 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 1: it's a worthwhile pursuit. 481 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 2: I don't hate the idea behind this, though, because recruiting 482 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 2: has gotten a lot more complicated. You know, you see 483 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 2: these crystal Ball postings. Oftentimes they're right. These guys are 484 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 2: experts at what they do. They've got the sources that 485 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:43,760 Speaker 2: kind of fill them in as to what's going on. 486 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 2: But I suspect that as the money really ramps up, 487 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 2: we will see more of the was it Jackson can't 488 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 2: Well type stories floating around out there where. Sure, yes, 489 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,199 Speaker 2: it seems as though there might be a front runner, 490 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:04,440 Speaker 2: George Dogs, but in reality, there are greater factors at play. 491 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 2: That's how he ends up in Miami. Now, he may 492 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:09,720 Speaker 2: claim money wasn't the issue, but money was definitely a 493 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 2: big part of the equation there that brought him to 494 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:13,960 Speaker 2: Coral Gables. 495 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 1: Do we think that the crystal Ball winner on three 496 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 1: has one as well? It's like an RPM. I think 497 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,399 Speaker 1: something there's like a strength factor. I don't know. Do 498 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,040 Speaker 1: we think there's an annual winner that is like handed 499 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:30,399 Speaker 1: the keys to a Cadillac a la Glengarry glen Ross. 500 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:34,919 Speaker 1: Do we think like there is a crystal ball, like like, 501 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 1: is there a crystal ball for the crystal ball Champion? 502 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,240 Speaker 1: How about that gets super meta with it. 503 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:44,360 Speaker 2: Sort of like the Director's Trophy. Yeah, the Best Athletic Department. 504 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 1: Yes, is there some sort of two four seven banquet 505 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:53,439 Speaker 1: at the end of the year in which whoever is that? 506 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:55,880 Speaker 1: Where I see these names and I get them all 507 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:59,119 Speaker 1: mixed up? Is Tomlly? Is he two four to seven 508 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:00,080 Speaker 1: or is he on? 509 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 2: I believe he's still thinking for Steve Wiltfong, Steve Wiltfong 510 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 2: moved over to on move to That was an earth 511 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 2: shattering move Tie. It was a pong bong, a pong bomb, 512 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 2: excuse me, not bong, that's different, right, fong bomb of 513 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 2: own of its own merit. 514 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 1: Yes, of course, So all of these names have come 515 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 1: across my eyeballs over the years. But yeah, I would 516 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 1: love to know if there is there a bonus involved, 517 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 1: Is there a banquet? Is there some sort of cash 518 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 1: prize involved in the crystal ball Champion? 519 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:33,640 Speaker 2: Get on the horn? And message Brandon and find out 520 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 2: what the incentives are for getting those predictions correct, because 521 00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:42,320 Speaker 2: you know, like if you've read any college football preview 522 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 2: publications over the last twenty years, Phil Steele has made 523 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 2: it a habit to talk about in the first like 524 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 2: eight lines of any preview how accurate he's been over 525 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 2: the last decade. There is definitely a premium every fantasy 526 00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:02,440 Speaker 2: football site, fantasy sports site does it. They all are 527 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 2: trading on their accuracy, and so I'd be curious to 528 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 2: know is there any accountability after the fact for people 529 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 2: making these predictions. 530 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: You know, it's like an actual source of contention. The 531 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 1: crystal ball in the recruiting world. I have to imagine 532 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:22,440 Speaker 1: it is that there are like families ask writers to 533 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 1: hold off that the writer knows that there's going to 534 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:28,480 Speaker 1: be a commitment there hold off until very late in 535 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 1: the process, and there's a whole thing. Brandon responded, already, 536 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, gold watch gift card to the Jelly of 537 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 1: the Month club. It doesn't sound like there's an actual bonus. 538 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 2: Okay, So maybe the real post here out on Scoop 539 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 2: Duck should be demanding some accountability or demanding a full 540 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 2: write up at the end of the year. 541 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 1: I would like again. I don't know how this will 542 00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 1: ever happen, but my idea for the most successful college 543 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:07,479 Speaker 1: football podcast of all time is a media member, a coach, 544 00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 1: somebody employed in the industry deciding they're retiring. They're going 545 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 1: to go rent out chairs as a new pursuit, because 546 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 1: that's if you want to make money, rent out chairs, 547 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 1: and they start a new show and it's just called 548 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:26,200 Speaker 1: Burning Bridges and it's just every single story they have 549 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 1: because they've decided and you know, we've had it kind 550 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 1: of with disenfranchised coaches starting things up, but I don't 551 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 1: know if the likability is there, but I want some 552 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 1: sort of official Burning Bridges podcast. We're like, yeah, this 553 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 1: is this is what happened with this guy's recruitment and 554 00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 1: you want to hear something crazy about this coach. Here's 555 00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:48,520 Speaker 1: the story. Yeah, and somebody just has nothing. Maybe it's 556 00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 1: somebody is about to get dark tie and I apologize 557 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 1: terminally ill. 558 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's this is like a deathbed confession podcast. 559 00:30:56,440 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 1: Right, That's what I'm looking for. Go over to Vandy 560 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 1: two four seven. If we can't, yeah, please handle here 561 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 1: is Vandy nutt Okay, is it possible our players are 562 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:12,280 Speaker 1: too smart. I hear that too many kids on the 563 00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 1: Dean's List, too many thinking kids that get bad stuff 564 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 1: in their head and actually think about it. That's the 565 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:22,520 Speaker 1: end of the post. That's the end of the post. 566 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 1: So is it possible that kids attending an elite institution 567 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 1: like Vanderbilt to both learn and play football are learning 568 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 1: too much and it's getting in the way of their 569 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 1: football the ceball hit ball carrier mentality. Maybe here's why 570 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 1: I'm going to give this post validity. Okay, the more 571 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:48,960 Speaker 1: you're stressed out about other things, the more difficult it 572 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 1: is to do what you're trying to do. Whatever that 573 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 1: is correct. If you're trying to produce and host and 574 00:31:55,600 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 1: edit a quality podcast about message board weirdos, but you've 575 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 1: got sick dogs, a wife who's angry at you, your 576 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 1: house is crumbling, your lawn is out of control, you 577 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:12,200 Speaker 1: think that there are ostriches eating away at your fence. 578 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 1: You keep hearing helicopters at night. You're not going to 579 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 1: do your best job. And so what I'm saying here 580 00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:24,960 Speaker 1: is if we have players who decided to enter or 581 00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:27,400 Speaker 1: excuse me, to enroll at Vanderbilt and to accept a 582 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:30,720 Speaker 1: scholarship offer to play at Vanderbilt who are also super 583 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 1: interested in becoming pediatrists or architects or nineteenth century English 584 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 1: scholars or want to be someday become a curator for 585 00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:49,280 Speaker 1: Victorian art at a French museum. And they're putting in 586 00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 1: the work the unseen hours that they're grinding to sort 587 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 1: of play football at a high sec level. Beat Alabama again, 588 00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 1: but also, you know, really thinking thoughtful things about man 589 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 1: a or something. I could see it. That's a lot 590 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 1: to juggle. 591 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:15,320 Speaker 2: Let me widen the aperture a little bit on this. 592 00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:18,520 Speaker 2: This is a similar not the same, but similar post 593 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:19,040 Speaker 2: on UGU. 594 00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 1: What is your big interest in space? What was it 595 00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:26,200 Speaker 1: my big interest? Yeah, it was dark matter. What is 596 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 1: it that you like, are fascinated by in space? There's 597 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 1: some I forget what it is dark matter? It's probably 598 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 1: not dark matter. No, I didn't see it. So weren't 599 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:39,920 Speaker 1: you at some point very interested in something that occurs 600 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:43,880 Speaker 1: allegedly hypothetically in space that could be used as a 601 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 1: fuel of the future. 602 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 2: Oh, I'm I'm always interested in hypothetical propulsion sources exactly. So, 603 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:53,480 Speaker 2: like you want to talk a little warp drive on 604 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 2: this podcast, I am down with that. 605 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:59,400 Speaker 1: So what I'm saying if you are Diego Pavia, Yeah, 606 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:02,600 Speaker 1: and you are attending a class and you just think 607 00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 1: it's a run of the mill class. But at Vanderbilt 608 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:08,280 Speaker 1: there's going to be some excellent professors, some excellent courses, 609 00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,480 Speaker 1: as there are most places. But Diego Pavia, maybe this 610 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,879 Speaker 1: kind of class wasn't offered at New Mexico State, and 611 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:19,239 Speaker 1: all of a sudden a teacher plants the seed of 612 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 1: alternate space propulsion in his head the night before the 613 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:27,800 Speaker 1: Georgia game. Right, information warfare is what you're describing. 614 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:32,360 Speaker 2: It's a distraction, TI, It's a distraction. Academics are a 615 00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:37,280 Speaker 2: distraction from UGA sports. Yeah, We've got a post here 616 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 2: that says I blame some, not all. I don't know 617 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:45,960 Speaker 2: what we are casting blame for here, again taking a 618 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 2: little bit out of context. 619 00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 1: To be fair, I. 620 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,759 Speaker 2: Blame some, not all, on the out of state acceptance rate. 621 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:56,440 Speaker 2: The average Georgia fan now is some brainiac from New Jersey. 622 00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:59,759 Speaker 2: You scored a fourteen ninety on their SAT. Has that 623 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:02,520 Speaker 2: E are that afraid that some brainiac from New Jersey 624 00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:05,760 Speaker 2: continues might be a first At most other SEC schools, 625 00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:09,879 Speaker 2: the average rabid fan college student can still enroll. Other 626 00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:12,400 Speaker 2: schools have a brotherhood and a fan base that Georgia 627 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:15,759 Speaker 2: does not. Georgia does have great fans, just not as 628 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:19,560 Speaker 2: great as other places. Oh on a Georgia message board 629 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:20,560 Speaker 2: in a list, I don't know. 630 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,680 Speaker 1: I would, I would imagine every major place. 631 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,719 Speaker 2: So the first was our players are too smart. Now 632 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 2: it's our fans are too smart. 633 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:29,160 Speaker 1: Dan, Right, Well, it's not only the fans are too smart, 634 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:33,920 Speaker 1: it's I actually understand, I think the energy behind this 635 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 1: a little bit. 636 00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:36,719 Speaker 2: It's our alumpni are too smart. Well, I don't I 637 00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:37,640 Speaker 2: don't know if I'm getting this. 638 00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:40,279 Speaker 1: If you were to grow up in New Jersey, and 639 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:44,200 Speaker 1: your line of thinking is I, of course am a 640 00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 1: brainiac from Marlborough whatever, New Jersey, right, Montclair, New Jersey. Right, 641 00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:53,920 Speaker 1: You're from a township, sure, And on TV you see Georgia, right, 642 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 1: you see this stadium and the hedges and the tradition 643 00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:03,960 Speaker 1: and the warmth and the frenzied nature of SEC football, 644 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:07,120 Speaker 1: and you're like, I'll do respect to Rutgers, all due 645 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:12,479 Speaker 1: respect to seedon Hall basketball, but I can't get that here. 646 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:15,759 Speaker 1: I want to go to Georgia. I want to go 647 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:17,840 Speaker 1: to Texas. I want to go to Alabama, which, of 648 00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:20,759 Speaker 1: course all of these places being on network TV, having 649 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:24,759 Speaker 1: these excellent programs, these big personalities, these NFL draft picks. Well, 650 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:27,000 Speaker 1: we talk about this. It's a marketing thing, right, that 651 00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:30,759 Speaker 1: the applications are up, that you know, the idea that 652 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,520 Speaker 1: all these universities are getting so much free marketing by 653 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:37,839 Speaker 1: being on huge TV so often is very real. And 654 00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:43,000 Speaker 1: schools charge more for out of state tuition. So I 655 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:50,399 Speaker 1: understand the fear that if Georgia becomes delocalized, that it's 656 00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:52,680 Speaker 1: so many more kids who are not from Georgia or 657 00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 1: not from surrounding states or something that they're not going 658 00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:58,279 Speaker 1: to understand and they're not going to live and die 659 00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 1: with Georgia football. That they didn't grow up a Dog fan, 660 00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 1: that they didn't grow up with the traditions or you know, 661 00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 1: staying up nights wondering about David Green's weird throws in 662 00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:13,799 Speaker 1: the two thousands, that they're not going to be a 663 00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:18,200 Speaker 1: value add to the in game experience or the experience 664 00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 1: of being in the Georgia community, like somebody who was 665 00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:24,680 Speaker 1: no longer a brotherhood, born and bred a Georgia fan. 666 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:28,160 Speaker 1: I understand it. I don't see a huge amount of 667 00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:29,440 Speaker 1: value in it, but I get it. 668 00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:34,759 Speaker 2: Counterpoint. Yeah, one member of the broadcasting duo grew up, 669 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:39,280 Speaker 2: I would say, a brainiac enough in southern California. Oh me, okay, 670 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 2: took his talents to Eugene, Oregon. Yeah, and is now 671 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:47,520 Speaker 2: a much sought after member of the Oregon fan base. 672 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:48,960 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, am I okay. 673 00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:52,880 Speaker 2: I don't know if that's true. You're more sought after 674 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 2: an Oregon fan than I am. That's I guess so. 675 00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:58,000 Speaker 2: And you're from mom State. You grew up a Florida 676 00:37:58,000 --> 00:37:59,280 Speaker 2: State fan. You love Peter Warwick. 677 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:03,879 Speaker 1: Yeah. I arguably went to Oregon because I saw one 678 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:07,680 Speaker 1: of the coolest hats at a Nike factory outlet. It 679 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:09,839 Speaker 1: was a fuzzy uo. It's behind me, or you can 680 00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:12,480 Speaker 1: if you're watching on YouTube, it's right above you see 681 00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:15,400 Speaker 1: ty you look at the it. I was like, this 682 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:18,840 Speaker 1: is a dope hat. I might attend that university someday. 683 00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:22,080 Speaker 1: You went to Oregon for the hat? So No, I 684 00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 1: didn't go to Oregon for the hat. I visited. I 685 00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:26,520 Speaker 1: really liked it. I liked the journalism school. I just 686 00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:31,839 Speaker 1: enjoyed the vibe. There are a ton of California. People 687 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,120 Speaker 1: who go to Oregon. They used to sell shirts that 688 00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:38,399 Speaker 1: say the University of California at Eugene. So I don't 689 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:41,319 Speaker 1: feel like I was an outsider at all. I knew 690 00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 1: a ton of people from California when I went to Oregon, 691 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:47,520 Speaker 1: So I don't know. Maybe that has weakened Oregon that 692 00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:49,480 Speaker 1: it's not as local the. 693 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:52,080 Speaker 2: Distance from I don't know why I'm using Montclair, New Jersey. 694 00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:56,080 Speaker 2: The distance from Montclair, New Jersey to Athens, Georgia is 695 00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:59,880 Speaker 2: strikingly similar to that from la up to Eugene, Oregon. 696 00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:04,239 Speaker 1: I'm sure. I just don't think Traditionally. I think in 697 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:05,799 Speaker 1: the last few years it's been the case that a 698 00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:08,920 Speaker 1: lot of people from more northern states are heading south 699 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 1: because of what is viewed at as a more fun experience, 700 00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,920 Speaker 1: warmer climate, you know, big sports success, that kind of thing. 701 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,480 Speaker 1: So I understand the appeal, and when I traveled, I 702 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:20,239 Speaker 1: would meet you know, a lot of people from the 703 00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 1: Northeast going to SEC schools. My brother in law went 704 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:26,120 Speaker 1: to Texas from the suburbs of Chicago went to Texas, 705 00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:28,480 Speaker 1: and so I get it. A lot of people up 706 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:31,160 Speaker 1: here are doing that more and more. So I understand 707 00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:33,000 Speaker 1: it from their perspective, and I understand it from the 708 00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 1: locals perspective. But I think if you pulled Alabama fans, 709 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:38,080 Speaker 1: if you pulled Texas fans, if you pulled Florida fans, whatever, 710 00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:41,040 Speaker 1: all those schools are drawing from all over the place, 711 00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:46,080 Speaker 1: and they'd probably agree with the statement. Being an Alabama 712 00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:48,520 Speaker 1: fan isn't the same as it used to be. Being 713 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:50,839 Speaker 1: a Georgia fan isn't the same. Being a Florida fan 714 00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:53,439 Speaker 1: isn't the same. Being a Tennessee fan isn't the same 715 00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:56,200 Speaker 1: as it used to be. And so I just think, 716 00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:59,880 Speaker 1: you know, as a sports gets more nationalized, enrollment's going 717 00:39:59,920 --> 00:40:03,880 Speaker 1: to be become more nationalized, and people are able to 718 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:06,680 Speaker 1: learn more about schools via the Internet than they were 719 00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:09,359 Speaker 1: able to ever before. And so I don't know, it's 720 00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:12,319 Speaker 1: just it's a reality. But I get it. You want 721 00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:14,640 Speaker 1: locals only. You want to be like a surfer in Malibu, 722 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:19,759 Speaker 1: starting fights like in Johnny Utah all the in God, 723 00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:22,200 Speaker 1: what's the movie point break? You want that locals only 724 00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:24,640 Speaker 1: mentality a little bit, don't hassle me. I'm local. 725 00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:28,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, to the point, I mean, I don't know if 726 00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:31,040 Speaker 2: I've ever even told the story on the podcast. Okay, 727 00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:35,319 Speaker 2: all these years later, freshman Yurope at Penn State, there 728 00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:40,919 Speaker 2: was an internet search about transferring to Florida State. You yeah, 729 00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:44,200 Speaker 2: because of weather, because you're just like, I need a 730 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:45,959 Speaker 2: fresh start in my life. 731 00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:50,000 Speaker 1: I've been in PA this entire time. I saw Jen 732 00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:53,320 Speaker 1: Sturger and her friends on TV the time. Is this 733 00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:56,799 Speaker 1: was before that? Okay, that's probably true. Yeah, I don't 734 00:40:56,800 --> 00:40:59,600 Speaker 1: remember the exact reason why. So a year would have 735 00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:02,360 Speaker 1: this What year was that? This would have been to 736 00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:05,160 Speaker 1: the fall of two thousand and one, Fall of two 737 00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:08,799 Speaker 1: thousand and one, yeah, or no, the fall of the 738 00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:12,279 Speaker 1: Fall of two thousand Actually, so you're a freshman, you're 739 00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:13,840 Speaker 1: a true freshman, true freshman. 740 00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:17,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, fall of two thousand and I don't recall 741 00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:18,960 Speaker 2: exactly why it was. 742 00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:21,640 Speaker 1: You were like, they just lost the national championship to Oklahoma. 743 00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:27,560 Speaker 1: I'm the missing piece. Wasn't that Florida State who lost Oklahoma? 744 00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:30,800 Speaker 2: And Mike Leach Florida State, Yes, did lose to Oklahoma. 745 00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:32,799 Speaker 1: Well it was it was Bob suits Was Leech still 746 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:34,919 Speaker 1: there or did he leave? Had he already left after 747 00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:36,399 Speaker 1: I think maybe he left after a year. 748 00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:38,520 Speaker 2: Was that the Oklahoma drilled him. Didn't they put up 749 00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:39,839 Speaker 2: like fifty five points or something. 750 00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:42,880 Speaker 1: No, no, no, I think it was like fourteen to six, Oh, 751 00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:43,440 Speaker 1: exact game. 752 00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:47,440 Speaker 2: It was a rock fun You're right, You're right, you're right. Okay, anyway, 753 00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:49,000 Speaker 2: let's talk about Florida State here. 754 00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:51,040 Speaker 1: That would have been the year after I think Florida 755 00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:54,520 Speaker 1: State beat Michael Vick and Virginia Tech. Okay, Yeah, you're relieve. 756 00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:55,880 Speaker 1: I'm getting my time next up. 757 00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:58,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, Nole's twenty four to seven has been having a 758 00:41:58,640 --> 00:41:59,839 Speaker 2: bit of a field day here with Mike. 759 00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:03,160 Speaker 1: Yeah. 760 00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:07,000 Speaker 2: So, I mean last season was bad, three to nine. 761 00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:11,919 Speaker 2: It was bad season, and so there's that on top 762 00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:16,560 Speaker 2: of it. The recent postings here that were highlighted by 763 00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:21,280 Speaker 2: our friends at boor Geniuses are surrounding losing a recruit 764 00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:21,960 Speaker 2: to Houston. 765 00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 1: Is this about the five star quarterback who was going 766 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:28,040 Speaker 1: to visit Florida State? Again, you didn't have the context here. 767 00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:31,120 Speaker 1: I think it's Kayshawn Keishaan Henderson. I hope I got 768 00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:34,799 Speaker 1: that name right. Five star, local to Houston and was 769 00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:37,560 Speaker 1: going to visit Florida State but then shut down his recruitment. 770 00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:40,680 Speaker 1: I think that's what it might be in reference to. Yeah, 771 00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:42,200 Speaker 1: but he's been committed to Houston for a while. 772 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:46,880 Speaker 2: Handle prison, Mike Norvelle. Yeah, I'm convinced we'd finished with 773 00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:48,239 Speaker 2: a better class if we didn't have. 774 00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:52,400 Speaker 1: A head coach. Just fire him now, Oh, I like this. 775 00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:53,320 Speaker 1: Got another one. 776 00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:55,439 Speaker 2: Here that says, dig up dirt on norvel and fire 777 00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:57,560 Speaker 2: them for cause that's the quickest way out of this. 778 00:42:58,560 --> 00:43:02,200 Speaker 2: I'd imagine there's been a steady flow of those kinds 779 00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:06,279 Speaker 2: of posts over the last nine months or so, because again, 780 00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:10,279 Speaker 2: last season did not go well. Norvelle, for his part, 781 00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:13,560 Speaker 2: is not a stranger to losing high profile recruits to 782 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:18,680 Speaker 2: institutions that Florida State fans feel they are maybe superior to, 783 00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:23,640 Speaker 2: i e. Travis Hunter electing to go elsewhere before electing 784 00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:27,320 Speaker 2: to transfer with his head coach over to Colorado. This 785 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:29,400 Speaker 2: is not a new thing, per se. This is not 786 00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 2: exactly the same. But Mike norvell has been taking some 787 00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:37,560 Speaker 2: arrows here, and you can expect that unless things turn 788 00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:40,839 Speaker 2: around very quickly this season, there's gonna be a lot 789 00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:44,280 Speaker 2: more of this out On Knowle's twenty four to seven 790 00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:46,600 Speaker 2: there was one here from war Chant as well that 791 00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:48,880 Speaker 2: I that I guess what's the name of this poster? 792 00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:52,360 Speaker 2: This one is prison Mike Norvel. 793 00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,160 Speaker 1: Prison Mike, So in reference to the office, we assume 794 00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:59,319 Speaker 1: like his full username is prison Mike Norvel. That is 795 00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:04,360 Speaker 1: what I am seeing. Yes, Okay. If in the next 796 00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:10,319 Speaker 1: few weeks an incriminating video of some kind appears on 797 00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:16,000 Speaker 1: the Internet featuring Mike Norvel and Mike Norvell is insistent 798 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:21,000 Speaker 1: that it is a deep fake, prison Mike Norvell is 799 00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:26,439 Speaker 1: has to be considered a suspect. I don't know who 800 00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:29,399 Speaker 1: the first coach to be fired as a result of 801 00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:33,759 Speaker 1: a deep fake will be, but we have something on 802 00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:35,640 Speaker 1: the pseudo record that it's going to be Mike Norvel. 803 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:37,279 Speaker 1: They're getting very good at it. 804 00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:42,080 Speaker 2: I hate it, Mats, She's problematic so much it is problematic. 805 00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:46,120 Speaker 1: Okay. So I understand the concern about Mike Norvell. I 806 00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:51,040 Speaker 1: understand why it doesn't seem like things are going to 807 00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:55,560 Speaker 1: get dramatically better quickly for Florida State. Mike Norvell, you 808 00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:57,960 Speaker 1: know what Florida State's ceiling is, and that is an 809 00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:01,759 Speaker 1: absolute playoff caliber team or a four team playoff caliber team, 810 00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:06,680 Speaker 1: let alone twelve sixteen whatever. Yeah, we know Florida State's 811 00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:09,719 Speaker 1: path is going to be easier to get to a 812 00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 1: sixteen team playoff than a lot of teams and big 813 00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:18,160 Speaker 1: ten sec whatever, And so I think the idea is 814 00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:22,719 Speaker 1: sure season was a catastrophe last year, but look at 815 00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:25,640 Speaker 1: these next couple recruiting classes coming in, and if the 816 00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:28,359 Speaker 1: recruiting's not there, how are you going to impress prison 817 00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:32,240 Speaker 1: Mike Norvell? What would be the path for a team 818 00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:35,320 Speaker 1: to go without a head coach? Just like offense handled 819 00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 1: by offensive coordinator, defense handed by defensive coordinator, who's calling 820 00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:42,080 Speaker 1: out timeouts, who's making like executive decisions. 821 00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:47,000 Speaker 2: It worked with Paul Walker in Varsity Blues. Yeah, I 822 00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:50,920 Speaker 2: mean maybe maybe there's just a player who embodies leadership. 823 00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:54,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, it works for it almost works, I would say, 824 00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:58,319 Speaker 1: like it nearly works.

Well, 860 00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:08,080 Speaker 1: it would be a step in coach, wouldn't it. 861 00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:12,640 Speaker 2: No, he's You wouldn't hire Saban for like two million 862 00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:14,800 Speaker 2: dollars to just come and hang out for six months 863 00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:15,320 Speaker 2: and keep it. 864 00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:18,759 Speaker 1: He would dying.

It's probably not somebody with 868 00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:37,600 Speaker 1: like a big media job at this point. It's probably 869 00:48:37,640 --> 00:48:39,719 Speaker 1: somebody who's getting a little bit sick of spending time 870 00:48:39,719 --> 00:48:42,840 Speaker 1: with their family, spending time on the golf course.

I need to think more about 877 00:48:57,840 --> 00:48:59,520 Speaker 2: that one. You are putting me on the spot. 878 00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:01,480 Speaker 1: I'm putting you on the spot. But like, who are 879 00:49:01,480 --> 00:49:05,719 Speaker 1: like recent NFL coaches who were like did Jacksonville fire 880 00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:07,320 Speaker 1: their coach? The guy who won the Super Bowl? 881 00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:10,680 Speaker 2: Doug p or Son Peterson.

Like 905 00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:34,160 Speaker 1: they're hiring Mark Trestman. He's apparently a senior offensive assistant 906 00:50:34,200 --> 00:50:37,200 Speaker 1: for the Chargers right now, somebody who went to high school. 907 00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:42,960 Speaker 1: Oh man, Mark Tressman, Toronto Argonaut's seventeen eighteen Tampa Bay 908 00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:47,040 Speaker 1: Vipers head coach and gm LA Chargers senior offensive assistant. 909 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:51,000 Speaker 1: At the moment, the Frank Reik one got me thinking, Ty, 910 00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:53,680 Speaker 1: that's all, let's close this content, this contest. 911 00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:58,279 Speaker 2: Let's close this episode out by pushing on one of 912 00:50:58,280 --> 00:51:00,480 Speaker 2: the big pressure points right now in the sport.

I did see that Connor Stallions was there. 918 00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:22,839 Speaker 2: It was sort of a surprise that Connor Stallions would 919 00:51:22,840 --> 00:51:27,440 Speaker 2: be there at all. Perhaps indicates that Michigan and Stallions 920 00:51:27,480 --> 00:51:31,200 Speaker 2: were a little bit more cooperative with the investigators than 921 00:51:31,239 --> 00:51:34,840 Speaker 2: initially thought. Not going to read any tea leaves, not 922 00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:37,560 Speaker 2: going to try and project what that means for any 923 00:51:37,600 --> 00:51:41,719 Speaker 2: forthcoming infractions or you know, not in fractions whatever.

If knowing every play 931 00:52:08,680 --> 00:52:11,880 Speaker 2: pre snap is such an advantage, how did the opposing 932 00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:13,400 Speaker 2: teams ever even score any points? 933 00:52:14,040 --> 00:52:17,880 Speaker 1: Fair question?

You have Patricia calling the defense. 989 00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:14,040 Speaker 1: So I don't I like, I'm not sick of this story. 990 00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:18,600 Speaker 1: But if I were Ohio State, I would try to 991 00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:21,160 Speaker 1: get over it. I just don't think that's realistic. 992 00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:23,799 Speaker 2: I know it's not. There's no way that's realistic. You 993 00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:26,440 Speaker 2: can't tell Ohio State people to get over this. You 994 00:55:26,480 --> 00:55:28,880 Speaker 2: can't tell Michigan people to get over this. 995 00:55:29,320 --> 00:55:31,640 Speaker 1: I know. But here's the problem. They lost without stallions 996 00:55:31,680 --> 00:55:36,239 Speaker 1: this year. They did, so that takes and like they 997 00:55:36,280 --> 00:55:38,319 Speaker 1: lost to the worst Michigan team of the modern era, 998 00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:42,520 Speaker 1: I mean, non twenty twenty. I don't know, man, from 999 00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:46,160 Speaker 1: the Michigan perspective, I would just I would soak in 1000 00:55:46,239 --> 00:55:48,680 Speaker 1: this happiness Chacuzzie that it's getting under the craw to 1001 00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:51,840 Speaker 1: getting under the skin of Ohio State fans all the time. Yeah, 1002 00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:54,399 Speaker 1: life is good if you're a Michigan fan. I think 1003 00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:57,160 Speaker 1: life's pretty good. A great quarterback coming in. 1004 00:55:57,200 --> 00:56:02,759 Speaker 2: Hopefully there is something that's still haunts me, and that 1005 00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:06,680 Speaker 2: is when we did our live stream right after Michigan 1006 00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:10,680 Speaker 2: beat Washington for the title. Yeah, I think it was 1007 00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:15,520 Speaker 2: eleven minutes into that episode. I went off on a 1008 00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:20,520 Speaker 2: bit of a tangent bringing up this controversy. Yeah, okay, 1009 00:56:20,560 --> 00:56:23,000 Speaker 2: bringing up this controversy as sort of the backdrop for 1010 00:56:23,040 --> 00:56:27,359 Speaker 2: the season, which it was totally In hindsight, I wish 1011 00:56:27,440 --> 00:56:30,080 Speaker 2: I had maybe been a little. 1012 00:56:29,880 --> 00:56:30,719 Speaker 1: Bit more. 1013 00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:38,160 Speaker 2: What's the way I want to phrase this artful? Yeah, 1014 00:56:38,560 --> 00:56:41,320 Speaker 2: I wish I hadn't made it why it's your show? 1015 00:56:41,480 --> 00:56:43,880 Speaker 2: That was what's on your mind? I wish I hadn't 1016 00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:48,239 Speaker 2: gone out and made it such an emphasis, such an emphasis. 1017 00:56:48,520 --> 00:56:50,120 Speaker 2: It was what a lot of people had sent in 1018 00:56:50,239 --> 00:56:52,680 Speaker 2: and I definitely was the backdrop, but there were a 1019 00:56:52,719 --> 00:56:55,520 Speaker 2: lot of Michigan people who also chimed in, saying, why 1020 00:56:55,520 --> 00:56:57,680 Speaker 2: do you have to throw cold water on the national 1021 00:56:57,760 --> 00:57:00,120 Speaker 2: Championship eleven minutes into the episode. 1022 00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:02,239 Speaker 1: They did on the actual broadcast too. 1023 00:57:02,360 --> 00:57:04,960 Speaker 2: They did in the broadcast, but were not the actual broadcast. 1024 00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:06,920 Speaker 2: And I do regret that I did that. I think 1025 00:57:06,960 --> 00:57:09,240 Speaker 2: I apologized to some I don't. 1026 00:57:09,040 --> 00:57:11,040 Speaker 1: Know you were being honest, that was on your mind, 1027 00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:13,160 Speaker 1: It was on my men watch along. If you were 1028 00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:14,680 Speaker 1: watching it with me and we were on the couch, 1029 00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:15,880 Speaker 1: we would talk about it. 1030 00:57:16,160 --> 00:57:17,880 Speaker 2: We are all about good vibes here. And I don't 1031 00:57:17,880 --> 00:57:19,080 Speaker 2: want to be a negative Nancy. 1032 00:57:19,720 --> 00:57:22,560 Speaker 1: It's not negative. You just would you spit facts. I 1033 00:57:22,640 --> 00:57:23,520 Speaker 1: do spit facts. 1034 00:57:23,560 --> 00:57:27,000 Speaker 2: It was something that was very much, I think, a 1035 00:57:27,040 --> 00:57:30,360 Speaker 2: talking point going into that game and all throughout that season. 1036 00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:31,680 Speaker 1: So I wouldn't have any regret. 1037 00:57:32,240 --> 00:57:34,160 Speaker 2: I do have a little bit of regret forget nothing. 1038 00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:36,920 Speaker 2: I'm being honest with you were different guys here that's 1039 00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:43,520 Speaker 2: are worthless. But that being said, I still I still 1040 00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:46,120 Speaker 2: for as much as I am not one to clutch 1041 00:57:46,160 --> 00:57:50,640 Speaker 2: pearls over any specific rule in college football at this point. Yeah, okay, 1042 00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:53,880 Speaker 2: how could they not be penalized for this? Oh? 1043 00:57:53,920 --> 00:57:54,400 Speaker 1: I agree? 1044 00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:56,040 Speaker 2: And the thing that I think, how could they not? 1045 00:57:56,120 --> 00:57:59,920 Speaker 2: I understand that maybe there's a little bit of a 1046 00:58:00,160 --> 00:58:05,040 Speaker 2: wolf thing going on. I understand that the impact that 1047 00:58:05,080 --> 00:58:09,080 Speaker 2: this may have on the product, right may be minimized. 1048 00:58:09,760 --> 00:58:10,320 Speaker 1: I get all that. 1049 00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:14,080 Speaker 2: I just don't understand how this can't be penalized to 1050 00:58:14,200 --> 00:58:16,880 Speaker 2: some degree, not saying give them the death penalty, right, 1051 00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:18,640 Speaker 2: saying take away the title. I don't even know if 1052 00:58:18,640 --> 00:58:20,240 Speaker 2: they can take away the title. It's like its own 1053 00:58:20,280 --> 00:58:20,720 Speaker 2: separate thing. 1054 00:58:20,840 --> 00:58:24,440 Speaker 1: But there has to be something for this, right Well, 1055 00:58:24,800 --> 00:58:27,320 Speaker 1: that the thing that hurts everything is how long it's taken. 1056 00:58:27,400 --> 00:58:29,240 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, but that's but that's also been the 1057 00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:30,720 Speaker 2: NCAASMO forever. 1058 00:58:30,800 --> 00:58:32,560 Speaker 1: Right, So that's what I'm saying is like, you're just 1059 00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:35,920 Speaker 1: ever you're going to lose the court of public opinion 1060 00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:37,760 Speaker 1: by dragging it out over a couple of years that 1061 00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:39,919 Speaker 1: people are just gonna care less that you know, Jim 1062 00:58:39,960 --> 00:58:42,720 Speaker 1: Harbaugh is not the current coach, that Stallions is gone. 1063 00:58:42,920 --> 00:58:46,520 Speaker 1: That it's just like it's a different look program right now, 1064 00:58:46,560 --> 00:58:48,160 Speaker 1: even though there's like the shrow and more thing with 1065 00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:52,800 Speaker 1: the leading texts, and I just I want a comprehensive 1066 00:58:52,920 --> 00:58:56,480 Speaker 1: summary of the investigation before I weigh in. That's all 1067 00:58:56,480 --> 00:58:57,760 Speaker 1: I want. I would like that too. 1068 00:58:57,960 --> 00:59:00,880 Speaker 2: I would like that too, because all we know, right, 1069 00:59:00,920 --> 00:59:06,200 Speaker 2: now is what's been published publicly from reporters who have 1070 00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:10,080 Speaker 2: been chasing down this story for two years now. Connor 1071 00:59:10,120 --> 00:59:13,360 Speaker 2: Stallions has been mum, he has not sett a whole 1072 00:59:13,360 --> 00:59:15,160 Speaker 2: lot on it. He doesn't really have to say. This 1073 00:59:15,240 --> 00:59:20,200 Speaker 2: is not a legal matter, right. This is a private matter, right, 1074 00:59:20,320 --> 00:59:23,120 Speaker 2: and it is very much shielded from public view to 1075 00:59:23,160 --> 00:59:27,200 Speaker 2: the extent that you know, the NCAA and Michigan and 1076 00:59:27,240 --> 00:59:28,960 Speaker 2: all the involved parties will allow. 1077 00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:33,760 Speaker 1: It's also not hacking, right, It's not Connor Stallion's bugging right, 1078 00:59:34,280 --> 00:59:36,360 Speaker 1: Northwestern's defensive meeting. 1079 00:59:36,600 --> 00:59:39,680 Speaker 2: Illegal in the sense that he's going to go to jail. 1080 00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:42,240 Speaker 2: He's gonna have to pay a fine to the hack 1081 00:59:42,280 --> 00:59:44,680 Speaker 2: as a result. Who is the baseball hack? It was 1082 00:59:44,720 --> 00:59:47,960 Speaker 2: the Astros and Cardinals. I want to say, like, it's 1083 00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:53,160 Speaker 2: not that, No, it is not that. This is very 1084 00:59:53,280 --> 00:59:56,080 Speaker 2: much in the spirit of trying to help the team win. 1085 00:59:56,960 --> 01:00:01,160 Speaker 2: Maybe against the rules, okay, but not going to jail 1086 01:00:01,200 --> 01:00:04,640 Speaker 2: for this, right, So yes, I am like, I would 1087 01:00:04,680 --> 01:00:09,440 Speaker 2: like a full comprehensive breakdown, a timeline everything that transpired 1088 01:00:09,480 --> 01:00:12,120 Speaker 2: here before we weigh in. But based on what we know, 1089 01:00:13,760 --> 01:00:16,120 Speaker 2: there at least seems to be some tie in between 1090 01:00:16,120 --> 01:00:20,680 Speaker 2: Connor Stallions and the coaching Stavvy was on the staff, right, 1091 01:00:20,800 --> 01:00:25,959 Speaker 2: so something something should happen. I don't know what because 1092 01:00:25,960 --> 01:00:28,240 Speaker 2: I don't know all the details yet, but I uh, 1093 01:00:29,560 --> 01:00:31,640 Speaker 2: I think if I were a Michigan fan, if I 1094 01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:34,160 Speaker 2: were posting on a Michigan board, I would post a 1095 01:00:34,200 --> 01:00:35,840 Speaker 2: lot of what we saw here. And if I were 1096 01:00:35,880 --> 01:00:37,640 Speaker 2: an Oile State fan, I'd post a lot of what 1097 01:00:37,680 --> 01:00:40,280 Speaker 2: we saw there. So I get it from both sides. 1098 01:00:40,000 --> 01:00:40,440 Speaker 1: Of this thing. 1099 01:00:40,480 --> 01:00:43,360 Speaker 2: I'm just very curious to see what the conclusion of 1100 01:00:43,400 --> 01:00:47,080 Speaker 2: this investigation is because I just I maintained for a while, 1101 01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:50,320 Speaker 2: like necessarily rooting for it. I think Michigan's a really 1102 01:00:50,320 --> 01:00:52,600 Speaker 2: interesting story. I think college football is better when Michigan 1103 01:00:52,760 --> 01:00:56,360 Speaker 2: is good, full stop. But I would like for there 1104 01:00:56,400 --> 01:00:58,720 Speaker 2: to be some conclusion to this. And I do think 1105 01:00:58,760 --> 01:01:00,880 Speaker 2: if we're being honest here with the ourselves, there should 1106 01:01:00,920 --> 01:01:02,160 Speaker 2: be some kind of infraction. 1107 01:01:02,520 --> 01:01:04,440 Speaker 1: So I want closure. I just want closure. I just 1108 01:01:04,440 --> 01:01:06,080 Speaker 1: want to know. That's it. 1109 01:01:07,520 --> 01:01:10,280 Speaker 2: Way, It's all.
