Quite the first hour under our belt, 14 00:00:55,800 --> 00:01:00,320 Speaker 3: looking back on the home run derby and well the 15 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 3: other chaos that is currently going on. By the way, 16 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 3: the good news is the debate about the college football 17 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,920 Speaker 3: playoff format is still raging on. 18 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 4: So that's the good news. 19 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 3: SEC media days are going on, so everybody's there, every 20 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 3: blowhard who's a blowhard from the Southeastern Conference is all 21 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 3: there ready to discuss the college football playoff potential expansion. 22 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 3: You got Greg Sank the SEC commissioners talking about, you know, 23 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 3: how many conference games are playing, and so he took 24 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 3: time yesterday to discuss the differences in opinions on what 25 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,280 Speaker 3: the college football playoff format will look like between them 26 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 3: and the Big Ten, and also just this whole playing 27 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 3: eight conference games as opposed to everybody else. Let's take 28 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 3: a listen to the SEC commission. 29 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 5: We had a different view coming out of Dustin around 30 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 5: the notion of allocations. If you will, then I think 31 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 5: you'll probably hear that again from our coaches. The Big 32 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 5: Ten has a different Dude, that's fine. We have a 33 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 5: twelve team playoff, five conference champions that could stay. If 34 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 5: we can't agree. I think there's this notion that there 35 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 5: has to be some magic moment and something has to 36 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 5: happen with expansion and it has to be for It 37 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 5: is absolutely, fully, one hundred percent correct that in the 38 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 5: SEC we play eight conference games while some others play 39 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 5: nine conference games. Never been a secret. It's also correct 40 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 5: that last season all sixteen members of the Southeastern Conference 41 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 5: played at least nine games against what you would label 42 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 5: power opponents. We had several that played ten of their 43 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 5: twelve games against power opponents. Some conferences have that, some don't. 44 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 6: I don't believe. 45 00:02:55,639 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 5: There's anyone looking to swap their conference schedule and its 46 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:05,239 Speaker 5: opponents with the opponents played by Southeastern Conference teams in 47 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 5: our conference schedule, be it eight or nine. 48 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 7: Oh my god, I love going emotional sensitive out here. 49 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 6: Lovell's he's stating what I think some people might agree with. 50 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 6: I think if you're comparing the SEC to the ACC 51 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 6: and the Big twelve, and no disrespect to those conferences, 52 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 6: but I think most would agree. I think the tough 53 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 6: thing for me with buying into this notion that Greg 54 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 6: Sankee's making is the Big ten whoop y'all last year? 55 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 6: I mean, you're the team that was carrying the flag 56 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 6: for you last year was really Texas. That was their 57 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 6: first year in the conference. So if you want to 58 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 6: go that route, you can go that route, and you 59 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 6: can make those comments in regards about your eight conference 60 00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 6: games versus other conferences having to play nine. But there's 61 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 6: a lot of parenting in these other conferences too. I mean, 62 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:09,119 Speaker 6: ask for some ask someone like Lincoln Riley who left Oklahoma. 63 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 6: Some would say because who didn't want to have to 64 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 6: play in the SEC because he thought it'd be a 65 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 6: a harder route to go, maybe left to go to 66 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 6: a team that's plays in the Pac twelve that's no 67 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 6: longer there, and now is you know, complaining about their 68 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 6: Big Ten schedule and those nine conference teams that having 69 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 6: to play an additional tough nine conference like Notre Dame. 70 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 6: So there's going to be coaches that could make that 71 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 6: same claim about the Big Ten schedule. The smart thing 72 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 6: that the SEC has done is, you know, they've been 73 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:42,559 Speaker 6: able to kind of plant this flag and basically state like, look, 74 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 6: we feel like our conference is the best based on 75 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 6: how the regular season went last year. I think going 76 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 6: into the playoff, you would have thought that like they 77 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,160 Speaker 6: were the strongest conference. It felt like at least at 78 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:56,359 Speaker 6: the top. Unfortunately didn't work out from once again in 79 00:04:56,360 --> 00:05:00,040 Speaker 6: the playoff, Tennessee blown away by a house state I 80 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 6: was at. That game wasn't even close. Wasn't even close Georgia. 81 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 6: I mean, look, it was unfortunate that you know, Carson 82 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,280 Speaker 6: Beck was hurt. You had to go in with a 83 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,479 Speaker 6: freshman backup to play that game versus Notre Dame. But 84 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 6: that game wasn't even didn't even seem as close at 85 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 6: times as a score predicted so we can we can 86 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 6: go through each one of the games the playoffs when 87 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 6: all those teams got the score offers one another. I 88 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 6: mean Texas almost lost Arizona State. Yes that was a 89 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 6: double overtime game, but that game could have gone a 90 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 6: lot different too. So they were holding on for dear 91 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 6: life when it came down to it, just to be 92 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 6: a part of the four teams that were in the 93 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,479 Speaker 6: semi final. So I look at it and say, like, 94 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 6: I understand this is the point he wants to make. 95 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 6: I would push back a bit too, about some of 96 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 6: the top teams in the Big Ten and they do 97 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 6: play nine conference games, and the other thing I'd say 98 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 6: about those twelve you know, three other you know games 99 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 6: are going to play on their schedule as he's talking about, Well, 100 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,279 Speaker 6: we play eight plus you know one power whatever opponent. 101 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 6: Yet you also play layups in November too. You also 102 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 6: play double direction like Northwest Southeastern whatever school as well. 103 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 7: Well. 104 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 6: Look, I mean, I'm I'm not going to destroy as 105 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 6: a program, but I'm saying there are some there are 106 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:19,839 Speaker 6: far worse teams they play. They'll play FCS teams. Yeah, 107 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 6: So I sit here and look at it and go 108 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 6: hold on for a second, This is a diversion tactic. 109 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 6: You're trying to get everyone to look at how tough 110 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 6: your conference is. For eight games. It's so tough, we 111 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 6: don't need to play nine it's so tough. Well, yeah, 112 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,239 Speaker 6: you don't really play anyone anyway after the conference games. 113 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 6: So that's that's part of their argument is just trying 114 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 6: to say, hey, don't look over here, don't look at 115 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 6: how weak some of the non conference schedules are, or 116 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 6: and by the way, when we play those non conference games, 117 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 6: don't look at that, or don't look at the fact 118 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 6: that if you go back to the fourteen playoff, how 119 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 6: hard it was for teams that actually had to play 120 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 6: those nine conference games, and how that impacted their ability 121 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 6: then to get into the fourteen playoff, go back and 122 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 6: look at those stats. Well, that was one of the 123 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 6: easiest pass for the SEC because then only played at 124 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:08,479 Speaker 6: conference tamps, so it was one less game they really 125 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 6: had to worry about within conference. Big Ten had to 126 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 6: deal with that. A lot of other conferences had to 127 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 6: deal with that, not the SEC. And the last thing 128 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 6: I'll say is there's a thought, and I hope they 129 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:21,559 Speaker 6: expand a sixteen and I hope they do the model 130 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 6: of five conference champions and eleven at large bids. The 131 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 6: reason why the SEC is pushing it is because they 132 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 6: believe they will get more than what they would be allocated. 133 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 6: And you use that word before if they were going 134 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 6: to have automatic qualifiers, because if they have automatic qualifiers, 135 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 6: they'll each get four and the big twelve in the 136 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 6: ACC they get a couple each two automatically, right, So 137 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 6: they're in, and then you get your group of five, 138 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 6: then you get your at large bids. And the SEC 139 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 6: feels like they will have a better chance of getting 140 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 6: more teams into the playoff with a five conference champion 141 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 6: model and eleven at large bids as opposed to going 142 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 6: the automatic qualifier route five at large bids. When it's 143 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 6: all said and done, if you expanded to sixteen, So 144 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 6: I look at that and say let's find out, then 145 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 6: let's expand and let's really see what it looks like, 146 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 6: because I think they're going to be surprised in the 147 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 6: end with the way this all pans out. But pushing 148 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 6: for the sixteen sixteen team expansion with five conference champions 149 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 6: and eleven at large bids, it allows them, by playing 150 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 6: only eight conference games to get some of those teams 151 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 6: in there. I just think it's rich coming off this 152 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,719 Speaker 6: past year where you got three loss teams that were 153 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 6: trying to, you know, basically say hey, we should be in, 154 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 6: we should be a part of the conversation, and you 155 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 6: really didn't hear too many other conference is saying that 156 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 6: unless their team was a conference champ, which makes it 157 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 6: a little different. 158 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 1: I feel like there should be a cap on the 159 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:51,320 Speaker 1: Power five conferences the amount of teams. That's what I 160 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: feel right Like I think about like high school, like 161 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 1: how the playoffs work. There were teams that could have 162 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 1: had really really good seasons and they missed the playoffs 163 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 1: just based upon how it was structured to get into 164 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 1: the playoffs out of your you know, if it was 165 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 1: Quad a North, if it was Quad a South, what 166 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:18,439 Speaker 1: so on and so forth, Like the winner of the 167 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: conference went to the playoffs. Like if you have one 168 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:28,679 Speaker 1: or two teams, like Okay, the team that wins the conference, 169 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 1: they get in. 170 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 7: Great. 171 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 1: I think that's how it should be. They should be 172 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 1: automatically in if they win their conference. But I say 173 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: cap it off at like one other team, like Okay, 174 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 1: the runner up gets to go in. They qualify to 175 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,719 Speaker 1: get into the playoffs. I feel like it makes the 176 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 1: regular season more competitive, and it makes it fair for 177 00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: the conferences that aren't going to have the opportunities based 178 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 1: off of who they may play. 179 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:04,840 Speaker 6: To get in. 180 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 7: Miami should have been in. 181 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 1: There are a couple teams that should have been in 182 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: the playoffs last year. But if this is all about 183 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 1: how many teams we can get out of the Big 184 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: Ten or the SEC into the playoffs, I feel like 185 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 1: there's something to me in that structure based alone, There's 186 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 1: something that's wrong with that because even as good as 187 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 1: those conferences are, why would I as a player go 188 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 1: to a conference and play for a team in the 189 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 1: SEC or the Big Ten. 190 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 7: The reason is is because I want. 191 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 1: To have the opportunity to play for national championship. You know, 192 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 1: outside obviously the educational component of it. You want to 193 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:56,679 Speaker 1: go to a school in most cases where you have 194 00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 1: the opportunity to compete for championship. Every team pretty much, 195 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: pretty much not every team, but pretty much the teams 196 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 1: that are usually the teams that are going to make 197 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 1: it far are the teams that generally make it far. 198 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:15,840 Speaker 1: So to me, if we're talking about making your money, 199 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 1: make your money during your season, make the money during 200 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 1: your season, and understand that whoever makes it to the 201 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 1: Big Ten championship, those are the teams that are going 202 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 1: to represent your conference in the playoffs. SEC ACC, those 203 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: are the teams that are going to represent your team 204 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: in the conference. And then leave the rest of those 205 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:44,719 Speaker 1: games outside of the traditional Power five conferences. Leave the 206 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 1: rest of those teams for the institutions that actually have 207 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 1: a fair opportunity of competing in the playoffs. I do 208 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:59,839 Speaker 1: not want to see all like four or five six 209 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 1: teams out of a conference go to the playoff and compete. 210 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 1: That's just like me watching the Big Ten. It's just 211 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 1: like me watching the SEC during the season. 212 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,079 Speaker 4: Yeah, but if they're the best teams in the country. 213 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 1: White doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. The playoffs are the playoffs. 214 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 1: It's the playoffs. If you're in that conference and you're 215 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 1: one of the best teams, then you have to show 216 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 1: you're one of the best teams and qualify to compete 217 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: for the conference title, then go to the playoffs. Just 218 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,719 Speaker 1: to me, that's how I feel like it would make 219 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 1: sense for the simple fact that if you're not, if 220 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 1: you're just gonna take a whole bunch of teams from 221 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: the major the major conferences, then why have the other 222 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 1: conferences out there? Oh, your conference isn't good enough, We're 223 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: always going to take two or three more teams from 224 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 1: these two conferences. To me, Okay, if that's what you're 225 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 1: gonna do, then just have an SEC versus the Big Ten, 226 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 1: you know situation I'm in. 227 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 7: Okay, Well, well. 228 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,680 Speaker 6: I think it feels like we're slowly kind of moving 229 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 6: towards that a little bit with how this has been 230 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 6: discussed and the Big Ten and the SEC being the 231 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 6: two biggest movers in all this. But again, just so 232 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:18,720 Speaker 6: people understand the contrast between what both conferences are pushing for, 233 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,320 Speaker 6: the SEC saying the five dis similar to last year, 234 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 6: with a twelve team playoff, the five highest rank conference 235 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 6: champs get automatic bids into the playoff and obviously preferential seating, 236 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 6: and then they'll be eleven at large bids based on 237 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 6: how the College twelve Playoff Committee ranks those teams. The 238 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 6: other is a sixteen team expanded playoff where you have 239 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 6: four from the Big Ten and those would be seated 240 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 6: ranked obviously based on their finish, So the Big Ten 241 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 6: champion runner up, et cetera. The SEC would get there 242 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 6: four SEC champ runner up, et cetera, and then you'd 243 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 6: have the big twelve acc and you'd have probably those 244 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 6: two teams that played for their conference championship ultimately make 245 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:04,560 Speaker 6: it in. At least that's my assumption. But what what 246 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 6: I go back to is if you look at that 247 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 6: format that takes you to what twelve teams, so you 248 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:14,679 Speaker 6: get you're gonna get one of the spot for the 249 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 6: highest ranked group of five champ okay, and then you've 250 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 6: got a couple at large bits when it's all said 251 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 6: and done left over. So the hard thing about that 252 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 6: is it doesn't feel like there's quite as much room 253 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 6: to allow some of those teams that you mentioned Miami 254 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 6: that you know were maybe that bubble team that could 255 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 6: have should have gotten in. Someone mentioned me the other 256 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 6: day about BYU last year. With that, you know, they 257 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 6: were nine and oh one point the season. You know 258 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 6: they were a team that you probably could have made 259 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 6: a case for too based on their strength of schedule. 260 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 6: So I understand where you're coming from with all this. 261 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 6: I think what's that play here and what's being discussed 262 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 6: is about money, and no one ever wants to say 263 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 6: it or reveal it. But that's what it's about. You know, 264 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 6: each one of these teams that enters into the playoff 265 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 6: is a certain amount of money that that conference gets, 266 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 6: and so the Big Ten's view probably if they're pushing 267 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 6: an agenda for you know, four, I'm out of qualifiers 268 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 6: and to it at least gives each conference, Hey, this 269 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 6: is the minimum of what you're gonna make from this. Now, 270 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 6: depending on how the teams perform, depending on if you 271 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 6: get any other at large bid, you know, that could 272 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 6: could play a role too, but we at least know 273 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 6: every single year structurally how much money you can minimum 274 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 6: at a minimum, you know, plan on, whereas the five 275 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 6: conference champs eleven at largest like that could fluctuate mightily, 276 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 6: and that's probably why there's some concern for maybe the 277 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 6: ACEC or the Big twelve where they only get one 278 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 6: team in, they might get you know, locked out altogether, 279 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 6: or maybe even from the Big Ten and saying just like, hey, 280 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 6: we don't want a year where there's this perception that 281 00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 6: the SEC is better, even though the reality is when 282 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 6: you start actually playing, that's not the truth. But that's 283 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 6: not the reality of how strong each conference is. So look, 284 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 6: I'm not smart enough to the right answer for it. 285 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 6: I just personally like seeing you know, there'd be the 286 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 6: conference champions rewarded. If those games are still meaningful, then 287 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 6: make them meaningful, make them mean something where they get 288 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 6: automatically into the playoff with preferential seating, and then have 289 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 6: your you know, eleven at large bits. I think that's 290 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 6: the fairest way to playoff for it, and we see 291 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 6: who's the best of the best. I just I do 292 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 6: hope that somehow the College Football Playoff Committee can eliminate 293 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 6: the bias they've had towards the SEC, because we saw 294 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 6: how that played out last year in the playoff, and 295 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 6: the SEC got absolutely drummed in a lot of those 296 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 6: circumstances and they were not as strong as what everyone 297 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 6: portrayed them to be. It's like, all right, this, these 298 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 6: are the teams you threw in there, and yet you're 299 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 6: still lobbying for old mess and lobbying for Alabama teams 300 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 6: that lost, you know, have them the three games last year. 301 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:51,920 Speaker 6: It's like, really forgetting that's that's what you want to see. 302 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 4: South Carolina too, was found on the tab. 303 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 3: I just somebody come up with a conclusion, somebody come 304 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:05,399 Speaker 3: up with an answer and then let's just go from there. 305 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 3: But it's just it's the back and forth between commissioners 306 00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:10,640 Speaker 3: defending their conference and. 307 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 1: They should I should defend it, but you know, they 308 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 1: should defend it. 309 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:17,399 Speaker 7: I mean, but why not? 310 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: Why not if it's all about the guarantee of the 311 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:25,120 Speaker 1: amount of money, why not have it play out where 312 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:30,120 Speaker 1: both both conferences have a showdown, you know, like, okay, 313 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 1: you have your qualifiers, you know, your elite teams in 314 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 1: the Big Ten, and you have your elite teams and 315 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 1: the SEC and and have them battle it out to 316 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:44,400 Speaker 1: get into the playoffs, the playoff, so they the Big 317 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:46,400 Speaker 1: Ten has actually thrown that out there that. 318 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 6: There would be a seeding too, So the Big Ten 319 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 6: championshipould look a little different like they would obviously the 320 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 6: top two teams would play off for the championship, but 321 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 6: then you maybe even have you know, three through six 322 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 6: would play, and the winners of those games to play 323 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:03,360 Speaker 6: for the final two spots. Now, the only thing I'll 324 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 6: say about that format is, well, then outside of playing 325 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 6: for the conference championship, which is kind of meaningless, I 326 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 6: guess maybe it's not to some, but it feels a 327 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:16,639 Speaker 6: little bit right because because the losers automatically in So 328 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,640 Speaker 6: that's the only problem with that format where I'm like, yeah, 329 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 6: it sounds fun and enticing, but there's also not as 330 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:23,399 Speaker 6: much on the line, because ultimately, you'd rather have a 331 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 6: national championship over a conference championship, would you not? 332 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 7: Yeah, but look at it this way. 333 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:35,360 Speaker 1: We had a national champion that wasn't even a conference champion. 334 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 6: Correct, and I could go high State would rather have 335 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 6: a national champion? I think they would. 336 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:41,640 Speaker 7: They I think they would too. 337 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:43,760 Speaker 4: I think they'd rather beat Michigan at this point. 338 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: I think they will. I think I would rather have 339 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:49,399 Speaker 1: a national title. We've had this debate before, but I 340 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:51,400 Speaker 1: would rather have a national title. 341 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 7: So at the end of the day, how much if 342 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:55,480 Speaker 7: I can say, all right. 343 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 1: We won the Big Ten, like you think Oregon is 344 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 1: happy with we won Big Ten, but yet couldn't win 345 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 1: against the team that they won the Big Ten against. 346 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 7: In the playoffs. 347 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:10,160 Speaker 1: To me, I feel like, whatever it is that you're 348 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:15,680 Speaker 1: gonna do, they're still with all the amount of schools 349 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 1: that exists around the country. If you're trying to make 350 00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 1: it in the in the essence of true competition, I 351 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 1: would be working to try to get as many teams 352 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 1: into the tournament. That are are teams that you would 353 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:38,639 Speaker 1: be like a BYU. I know people are like, well, 354 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,679 Speaker 1: when you had Penn State versus Boise State, that's not 355 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 1: or Boise that's not as as you know, entertaining, that's 356 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 1: not gonna move. I'm talking pure competition. I want to 357 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:58,640 Speaker 1: see the best teams out there competing in the playoff. 358 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: Like if you had a good and you're not in 359 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 1: the playoff because your conference isn't as strong. 360 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 7: As the SEC or the Big Ten, to me, that's 361 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,200 Speaker 7: a miss. That's a miss in. 362 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:14,399 Speaker 1: The true essence of what competition is supposed to be, 363 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:18,440 Speaker 1: and parody and going to a school and doing all 364 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 1: of the same workouts that these Big ten and SEC 365 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 1: schools are doing in the summer, all of these practices 366 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,400 Speaker 1: that they're doing during the course of the year, and 367 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:31,920 Speaker 1: yet they don't have the same opportunity. If you're getting recruited, 368 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 1: why would you go to a school where you stand 369 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 1: the chance of doing everything as close to perfect as 370 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 1: you possibly can and still don't get an opportunity to 371 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 1: compete in the tournament. I think it really really handicaps 372 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:56,639 Speaker 1: these other schools having the opportunity outside of being able 373 00:20:56,680 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 1: to financially compete in terms of what you're going to 374 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 1: give a five star or a four star or transfer portal guy. 375 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 1: Outside of the money that you can offer, what is 376 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 1: your incentive to go to a school that isn't in 377 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 1: the big ten at the top for one or in 378 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 1: the SEC. I just think that that's to me. I 379 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 1: think the people that really kind of suffer here are 380 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 1: those athletes that want to go to a school that 381 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:28,239 Speaker 1: may not be the traditional Alabama or or you know, 382 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:33,120 Speaker 1: Tennessee or whatever it may be, Penn State, Ohio State, Michigan. 383 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:34,440 Speaker 7: If you want to go. 384 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,200 Speaker 6: To Rutgers, go to Rutgers. 385 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 1: If you want to go to Miami, go to Miami. 386 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:41,920 Speaker 1: I just don't feel like, you know, I just don't 387 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: feel like all these teams are being considered. There's only 388 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 1: a couple conferences that are being considered. And I feel 389 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,679 Speaker 1: like that's hard. That's a hard one for me. 390 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, well it is two pros and a cup of 391 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 3: Joe here on Fox Sports Radio. 392 00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,199 Speaker 4: Nothing's harder than uh and what we got on. 393 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 7: On WHOA Oh buddy, I don't know where. 394 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 6: You By the way, why does league get so defensive? 395 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 3: Where is Lee Lorenda?

They found somebody who wants 443 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 3: to stay there long term. That's somebody is Garrett Wilson, 444 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:47,439 Speaker 3: who agreed to reportedly a four year, one hundred and 445 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 3: thirty million dollar contract, ninety million of it guaranteed, so 446 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:54,040 Speaker 3: puts them in the top five of wide receivers paid 447 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 3: in the NFL. Reportedly didn't get along well with Aaron 448 00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 3: Rodgers last year. That was a little bit of an 449 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:03,399 Speaker 3: issue for them, and he decided, listen, you know, I 450 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,159 Speaker 3: don't know if I want to be here long term. 451 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,760 Speaker 3: The Jets figure out a way to get the deal done. 452 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,960 Speaker 3: Garrett Wilson locked up for the immediate future, and now 453 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:13,879 Speaker 3: he gets to play with his good buddy Justin Fields 454 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,119 Speaker 3: now who takes over the helmet QB for the for 455 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:18,680 Speaker 3: the Jets there. So good job, Sauce Gardner. I'm assuming 456 00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:20,200 Speaker 3: would be up next if they're going to get a 457 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 3: deal done in an extension there. 458 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:23,919 Speaker 6: So they got some business to do this offseason. But 459 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,240 Speaker 6: that deal is one that puts him up in a 460 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 6: category where I think he's that caliber of player. But 461 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 6: he's had a litany of quarterbacks he's played with, and 462 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 6: you would have thought the Rogers situation would have played 463 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 6: out better for him, but the injury in year one, 464 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 6: which then led to, you know, the offseason that brought 465 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 6: in Devonte Adams, who's Rogers you know, best friend or 466 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:49,439 Speaker 6: number one target, which then impacts Wilson a little bit 467 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 6: last year, even though he still had a big year. 468 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,640 Speaker 6: It's just it's been an odd it's been an odd 469 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,479 Speaker 6: career so far for Garrett Wilson. But maybe that's when 470 00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 6: you're in New York Jet and you're there that long, 471 00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 6: that's usually works out. 472 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:03,119 Speaker 4: They're going to get you at some point. 473 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, at some point. What is Lee doing right now? Lee? 474 00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 6: You are all over the place? Dude? Well, I know, 475 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:13,639 Speaker 6: well I am using my phone. 476 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 1: Now where would y'all rank Garrett Wilson? Like, it's a 477 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 1: it seems like a big deal. Ninety ninety million guaranteed? 478 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:23,440 Speaker 7: What is that? 479 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: I mean, if you're if you're breaking it down, what 480 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,919 Speaker 1: will we assume assess that to be by year? Because 481 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 1: isn't Jefferson and those guys in the forty range? 482 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:32,560 Speaker 7: What does that breakdown to? 483 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 6: Well, he got one hundred and thirty million total, so 484 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 6: you're looking at over thirty million per year, right, which 485 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 6: puts them up with that category but the ninety million 486 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,680 Speaker 6: gives them three years of guarantees. And I mean that's 487 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 6: honestly pretty damn good for a player that's you know, 488 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:50,840 Speaker 6: looked at as a non quarterback to get three years 489 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 6: of guarantees in it. 490 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 1: I don't see him as a top five, top seven 491 00:26:56,720 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 1: elite receiver in the league. I mean I would, I 492 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:03,359 Speaker 1: would give that to a couple other guys. I mean 493 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 1: obviously Chase Jefferson Brown, the two Browns, A J. Brown, 494 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:13,719 Speaker 1: Iman Ross, Saint Brown, Tyreek Hill, C. D. Lamb, Like 495 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 1: these are the guys, uh, you know you have an 496 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:18,880 Speaker 1: aging Mike Evans. You know, Stefan Diggs is coming off 497 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:21,960 Speaker 1: of an injury, Cooper Cup had a rough year, Deebo 498 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 1: Samuel might be. 499 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 6: A little overweight. 500 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 1: But these are still names that I would you caught that, 501 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 1: these are still names I would use and say Terry McLaurin. 502 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 3: It puts him, It puts him in between C. D. 503 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:37,360 Speaker 3: Lamb and or DK Metcalf and AJ Brown. So he's 504 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 3: right up right above A. J. Brown, right below D. K. 505 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:40,400 Speaker 6: Mecken. 506 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:43,200 Speaker 1: What does that mean for Terry McLaurin and him trying 507 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 1: to get a long term like how he's getting paid two. 508 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:48,199 Speaker 6: Let me ask you this, though, Leavar, how much of 509 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 6: that has to do though, with the situation that he's 510 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:54,440 Speaker 6: been in as compared to some of the other you mentioned, 511 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:57,200 Speaker 6: Alma Ross, Saint Brown, Almon Ross, Saint Brown's a hell 512 00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 6: of a player. No one's gonna dispute that, but he 513 00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:00,879 Speaker 6: all so, I was able to put up a lot 514 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:03,240 Speaker 6: of production because you know, they had Ben Jonson as 515 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,880 Speaker 6: their offensive coordinator. He's one of the best offensive minds. 516 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:08,919 Speaker 6: It's wise in Chicago golf can slant. You know, he 517 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 6: was drafted number one overall and he's obviously brought a 518 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 6: lot of success to Detroit. We've we've known that, so 519 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 6: you know, there's been more stability in some of those 520 00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:19,879 Speaker 6: situations with some of those players you know you've mentioned 521 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 6: and talked about. I think that's one of the biggest 522 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 6: differences for me is he's the New York Jet, so 523 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:27,639 Speaker 6: that it hasn't it's been anything but that. Really when 524 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:29,919 Speaker 6: you think about the list of quarterbacks he's played with, 525 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:33,680 Speaker 6: but also maybe even through coaches and offensive systems and 526 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:34,200 Speaker 6: all that too. 527 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 1: You know, the set reality of that is is that 528 00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 1: that's what many players are are defined by their careers 529 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:49,560 Speaker 1: are defined by those uncertainties, those coaching changes that you know, 530 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 1: that's you know, that's how the To me, that's how 531 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 1: the NFL works, and whether it's fortunate for owners and 532 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 1: some some degree because they don't have to necessarily reward 533 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:06,320 Speaker 1: a player who finds themselves in an environment like that. You, 534 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,760 Speaker 1: I guess you do reward the players that that play 535 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 1: well in the environments where they do have a coach 536 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 1: that creates a stable environment, a coaching staff that is 537 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 1: able to tap into what makes the player the player. 538 00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:24,600 Speaker 1: But to me, I just look at it from from 539 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:28,719 Speaker 1: it's probably difficult to make it apples that apples comparison 540 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 1: when you say, okay, this this coaching staff has created stability, 541 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 1: they've been there that the kids or the players entire 542 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 1: career versus this one who has a whole a defense 543 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 1: coordinator or I mean a coordinator every single year, a 544 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 1: new quarterback every single year. I mean, it's still based 545 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 1: off of paying off of what potential because he's dealing 546 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 1: with those circumstances, or if it's a rookie, you're dealing 547 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:59,680 Speaker 1: with potential. And I just I just feel like, how 548 00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 1: do you you how do you reward a player that 549 00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 1: if you know they're playing for a trash a trash situation, 550 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:09,760 Speaker 1: it's it's you still have to make the determination that 551 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 1: the value is the value based off I would assume 552 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 1: what their accomplishments and their achievements are, and if that's 553 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:19,040 Speaker 1: what it's based off of, then I think it's hard 554 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 1: to make Garrett Wilson a you know, a top top guy, 555 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 1: even if he could be that top guy if he 556 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 1: were playing for you know, Sean Sinnatty or yeah right, yeah, 557 00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 1: you know that depending on you know, where he ended up, 558 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:37,080 Speaker 1: just the luck of the draw. 559 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 6: And that's what I thought of us have to deal with. 560 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:41,520 Speaker 6: I get that. I think that's I mean, look, I'll 561 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:43,480 Speaker 6: be honest. I think one of the reasons why a 562 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 6: team like the Jets pam is Jennie. Do you remember 563 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 6: when I figure what Bill Belichick was doing. It was 564 00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 6: one of those games where it was Monday Football and 565 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:54,480 Speaker 6: he was he was he, you know, kind of chimed 566 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 6: in with the Mannings on their manning cast, and he 567 00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 6: was just like Garrol Wilson, Caro, get Garlson the ball, 568 00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:02,600 Speaker 6: get garlils He probably said Gara Wilson's name ten times. 569 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 6: I mean he is. I don't know if there's a 570 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:08,320 Speaker 6: bigger fan of Garret Wilson his ability than Bill Belichick. 571 00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 3: I mean, Gara Wilson had the best season of his 572 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 3: career last year and didn't like the quarterback and then 573 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,680 Speaker 3: ended up getting paid and now he gets justin fields 574 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 3: in there, and I just it's the first year he 575 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,080 Speaker 3: was eligible to get paid. So maybe till LaVar's point, 576 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 3: you probably could have waited a little bit, but he didn't. 577 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:28,720 Speaker 3: You know, It's not like he reset the market. So 578 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 3: in two years from now, who the hell knows what 579 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 3: the highest paid wide receiver is going to be. I 580 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 3: just wonder if part of this was the Jets just 581 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:40,480 Speaker 3: letting everybody know, like this is like the first sign 582 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 3: of all right, we've got everything figured out. We've got 583 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:44,480 Speaker 3: guys that we trust here, We've got guys in the 584 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 3: building that we like. We want to keep him around 585 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 3: long term, sauce Gard and it will be next. What's 586 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:51,600 Speaker 3: interesting about it is those are Joe Douglas picks, and 587 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 3: they couldn't wait to fire him, So like these were 588 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:58,560 Speaker 3: Joe Douglas guys that he drafted, And if I'm not mistaken, 589 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 3: I think wasn't Garrett Wilson Offensive Rookie of the Year 590 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 3: and Sauce Gardner Defensive Rookie of the Year in the 591 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 3: same season. And you know that that GM got shown 592 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:13,240 Speaker 3: the showing, the shown the door last year, so good 593 00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 3: for them. 594 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:16,600 Speaker 6: LaVar, what would you what would you call that the 595 00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:23,680 Speaker 6: Jets organization dysfunctional? Why, that's what I hear you said. 596 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:29,880 Speaker 6: Usually you do that the whole dysfunction, this dysfunction. 597 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:36,640 Speaker 1: Disfunction, malfunction within the organization. It's called dysfunction. And talent 598 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 1: cannot outperform dysfunction. 599 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:40,800 Speaker 7: It cannot. 600 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 1: And that's sad because talent can perform, it just won't outperform. 601 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 3: I mean, do you think Gary Wilson's gonna give Aaron 602 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:52,760 Speaker 3: Rodgers a shout out and be like, hey, thanks for 603 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:55,760 Speaker 3: getting me paid, man, Like, thanks for thanks for having 604 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 3: me put together a career year. Uh, you know, only 605 00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 3: to see you get alienated by the organization. They give 606 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 3: him a shout out, give him a little bonus, you know, 607 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 3: throw him a few bucks, or is he just gonna 608 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:10,000 Speaker 3: disrespect Rogers and just say, now, listen, you know I 609 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 3: could have done it with anybody. 610 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 7: Okay, ninety million guaranteed.
