I mean they really had to have everything, 26 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,319 Speaker 3: like Brady Bunch, you know, as much color as we 27 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 3: can fashion anything, living room carpet, make it purple, whatever, 28 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,119 Speaker 3: just for the episode. Here we've got a Utah jazz 29 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 3: court that is all purple and various shades of it, 30 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 3: and a Sun's court that is all orange, various shades 31 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 3: of it, et cetera, et cetera. 32 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 1: All right, how long would you have to stare at 33 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 1: the multiple TVs in front of you until they all 34 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 1: coagulated into one pollock painting? Well, it is that much 35 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:55,559 Speaker 1: of a mess? Yes, ninety minutes?

These have specific lines drawn. 38 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 3: Basketball is still being played on set courts. It's not 39 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 3: like somebody just you know, doubled the paint brush and 40 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 3: just you know, through flipped the brush and through the 41 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 3: paint on the canvas. 42 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 1: Isn't that quite some of some of those courts, Steve, 43 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 1: I don't know about that, man, I. 44 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 3: Think I disagree with maybe the Oregon College court. But 45 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 3: this for the NBA Cup, the precious NBA Cup that 46 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 3: you keep referring to, at least there's some sort of sanity. 47 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 3: It's still ninety four feet, it still has you know, 48 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,079 Speaker 3: squared parts of the corners. 49 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,359 Speaker 4: It's not not quite a Jackson Pollock. 50 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 1: I wouldn't think, and I would wonder, and maybe the 51 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: great researcher Sarah Lang should find this, like is. 52 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:44,960 Speaker 4: They're more not her sports? 53 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 5: But okay, but doesn't matter. 54 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 6: She knows everything. 55 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 1: I mean, Sarah Lang said that she could find anything, Yes, 56 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:50,640 Speaker 1: anything like. 57 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 6: Is there more? How do I say this? 58 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: Okay, the general view you get of the NBA court, 59 00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:59,919 Speaker 1: what you know, the general mid court you know, mid 60 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 1: way up view that you get of the game, not 61 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: the low sideline or the replay angles, Like do you 62 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 1: get more of that look on an NBA Cup night 63 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 1: because the NBA wants to spotlight the courts than you 64 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: do in a regular night where it's not an NBA 65 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: Cup night. 66 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 4: I had not noticed that. Maybe it's just no. 67 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 3: I think it's just the color playing with us that 68 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 3: it just seems like we're getting too much color. But 69 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 3: still the camera is the same and at the same position. 70 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 6: All right, I'm just making you goues. I didn't know. 71 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 3: I'm like, oh man, but this is the I mean, 72 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 3: like the Dallas Mavericks are playing right now, and all 73 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 3: these shades of blue, nothing but ninety four feet of 74 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 3: blue on this except for, of course, the precious NBA 75 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 3: Cup Trophy at center court. 76 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 4: Can't miss that. 77 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 3: But it's like they're walking on water going from backcourt 78 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 3: to front court. In this It's like I'm say, is 79 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 3: this wood? Is this a basketball? What is this surface? 80 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 3: All of these and. 81 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 1: I do want to say you mentioned the game.

It's Eagles Cowboys week here, obviously, and 143 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:37,920 Speaker 1: maybe the Eagles were sick and tired of the Cowboys 144 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: getting all the publicity because Cede Lamb was out lady 145 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: the casino may or may not have thrown up outside 146 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 1: and missed curfew.

So any kid in Philly's area that is 179 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 3: growing up the enjoy at kids, It's not always like this. 180 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 3: It's kind of like what the Dallas Cowboys kids had 181 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 3: when they were growing up in the nineties. They thought 182 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 3: it would always be like this. Later thirty years later, 183 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 3: it's not at all like this. Philadelphia can win its 184 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 3: fifth game in a row if they get a win 185 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 3: at Dallas. That's one of the late afternoon games this Sunday. 186 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 3: But Philly is eight and two, and this is four 187 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 3: straight seasons they've been eight and two or better. That 188 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 3: had only happened once in the last thirty years in 189 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 3: the league. These are glory days for Philly. 190 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,679 Speaker 1: I feel even better about them this weekend because of 191 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 1: the kids punching the pictures of Dak and Ceedee Lamb. 192 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 1: I thought they would win by forty already, because you know, 193 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 1: aj Brown is saying, I'm You're not the same player. 194 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,599 Speaker 1: I guess Saquan's not the same player. Everybody hates everybody, 195 00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,680 Speaker 1: everybody hates Jalen Hurts, and it doesn't matter because all 196 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 1: the Eagles do is win, right like, and some teams 197 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: can thrive on controversy and some absolutely fall apart, and the. 198 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 6: Eagles have been thriving on it for the past couple 199 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 6: of seasons. 200 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 1: What Jerry Jones even said today, yet give me some 201 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: of that controversy, or give me some of that smoke 202 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 1: that the Eagles have. Yet we like that as well, 203 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 1: because look, the Cowboys do that too, right. The Cowboys 204 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: feed on they do it. They have a single day, no, 205 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: but they still they're comfortable in it. It's like, okay, 206 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 1: this is it's like putting on a nice sweater. 207 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 6: Oh I like this sweater. Yeah. 208 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: I mean the Cowboys put on them their controversy sweater 209 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: all the time. They don't always win in it, but 210 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 1: you know it doesn't stop them because you know they're 211 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 1: comfortable in it. Like these two teams, these are two 212 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: teams like, yeah, hey, controversy, controversy great, great, great. 213 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 3: What Dallas has been comfortable with this season is scoring 214 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 3: thirty points and giving up thirty points because until they 215 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 3: actually got to play the Raiders offense, which is putrid. 216 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 3: This past week, Dallas had the worst defense in the NFC. 217 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 3: Now it's technically Washington is the lowest ranked defense. The 218 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 3: Cowboys quote only give up about three hundred and eighty 219 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 3: total yards per game. That's an average game against Dallas 220 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:08,920 Speaker 3: this year is getting almost four hundred yards. 221 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I would normally say, well, even the best teams, 222 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 1: a team like the Eagle, you know, the champs coming back, 223 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: are gonna get a little bit of a bounce, a 224 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 1: little bit of a flat game coming off the effort 225 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 1: they put up against the Lions, where suddenly their defense 226 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 1: looks like we're a super Bowl caliber defense again, Like, 227 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 1: look at what they did to the Lions. Last week, 228 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 1: but that ain't happening this week. It's Dallas week. It's 229 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,079 Speaker 1: a chance to put to really put a stamp and 230 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 1: basically say, hey man, once we get past Thanksgiving, we're 231 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:37,320 Speaker 1: gonna clinch the NFC East. 232 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 6: We're gonna be We're gonna be fine. We're gonna have 233 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 6: a four game lead after this week. I love the Eagles. 234 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:43,679 Speaker 6: I love the Eagles big. In this game. 235 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 1: The Cowboys have been riding high. Yeah, they'll score some points, 236 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 1: but the Eagles will do well enough. Jalen Hurts will 237 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 1: have a big day. Throw in the football. Oh you 238 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: hate me this week? Wait till I go for three 239 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 1: hundred and three touchdowns. I'll show you all about this. 240 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:58,479 Speaker 1: The Eagles controversy great in the Cowboys controversy. 241 00:10:58,720 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 6: I know it's on the road. 242 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:02,559 Speaker 1: But Philadelphia wins this game to they're better team, that 243 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 1: they're better in these kind of circumstances. 244 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 3: They win this one, even if the offense has largely 245 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 3: been disappointing by their standards. But Philadelphia did what it 246 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,960 Speaker 3: needed to do in the fourth quarter of that home 247 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 3: game against the Rams this year, and that might be 248 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,720 Speaker 3: by the end of the season, the key game in 249 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:23,559 Speaker 3: the entire NFC, because that might be the one game 250 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 3: that gives the Eagles the one seed and a first 251 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,959 Speaker 3: round by The Eagles are eight and two right now. 252 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 4: The Rams are eight and two right now. 253 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 3: If the season ended right now, Eagles would have the 254 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,439 Speaker 3: one seed because of the head to head win over LA. 255 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 6: You mentioned the Rams. What are the other big games 256 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 6: of the week? 257 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 1: Right, we get the Bucks and the Rams and Mayfield 258 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 1: and Stafford, And these are two teams that are both 259 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 1: really talented, but both completely moving in different directions. 260 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 6: Right. 261 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 1: Los Angeles generally not a first half of the NFL 262 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 1: season team. Generally they're a team the last few years 263 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: and hey, they're three and five. I don't know about them. 264 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:00,959 Speaker 1: Then all of the US sudden, hey wait there ten 265 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,679 Speaker 1: and five, like that's rim. But this year it's different, 266 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: and they've won five in a row. They're eight and two. 267 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay has really hit the skids the last couple 268 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:09,959 Speaker 1: of weeks. 269 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 6: And the injuries caught up with them. 270 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield made it work for a while, you know, 271 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 1: but look, you lose Mike Evans, no Chris Goblinal, though 272 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 1: Chris Godwin's coming back. Eventually, you're gonna have to start 273 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: paying for that, and I you realize that even though 274 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 1: guys like Sean Tucker can have big games out of 275 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 1: the backfield, the guy that Mayfield's missed the most has 276 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:28,840 Speaker 1: been Bucky Irving. 277 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 6: Right, He's still gonna be a valve out of the back. 278 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's been it's been tough, and Bucky Irving's been 279 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 1: out for those games. Right, Because you watch Baker Mayfield 280 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 1: on these big drives and games at the end of games, 281 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: what does he do checks down to Bucky Irving, who 282 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 1: will get you ten or twelve yards on a big 283 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:45,079 Speaker 1: third and seven play. 284 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 6: He's the big safety valve. They've missed him. 285 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 1: And I like what I saw last week, and I 286 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: was I was right on last week. I said, listen, 287 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 1: you're gonna get a lot of points against the Bills, 288 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 1: but the Bills are gonna pull this out at home 289 00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 1: because they're the home team. And that's exactly what happened. 290 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,199 Speaker 1: You're gonna see the same type of thing this week 291 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 1: where Tampa Bay is gonna play pretty well. 292 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 6: You're gonna think well of them. 293 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,680 Speaker 1: But the Rams defense is just too good. The Rams 294 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 1: are gonna win this game to go to nine and two. 295 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 1: They're the better team, right, now they have a lot 296 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 1: more things going on, and they're a lot healthier than 297 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay is. The injury are just really caught up 298 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 1: to them, and they still have a lot of big 299 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,600 Speaker 1: guys out, even though they're likely gonna get god Win 300 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 1: back this week. It's another week for the Rams and 301 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 1: we're gonna not believe in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. But 302 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,559 Speaker 1: like Chris Berman used to say at the end of primetime, 303 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 1: better days ahead for this team. Like like at the 304 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 1: end of primetime when a team lose, like go to 305 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,440 Speaker 1: two and fourteen, two and fourteen, But better days ahead 306 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,960 Speaker 1: for the Jets in the offseason, like better days ahead 307 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 1: the rest of this year for the Bucks. Because it's 308 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:45,599 Speaker 1: still the nf The NFC South is still gonna be 309 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 1: theirs for the taking because the rest of the teams 310 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 1: are terrible. This is gonna be one more difficult week 311 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 1: before they get things back, get back into divisional play 312 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 1: and win the NFC South. But the Rams keep that 313 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 1: truck moving. 314 00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 3: And I guess better days ahead for every team, assuming 315 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:04,680 Speaker 3: they don't fold. It's how many days ahead you're talking about. 316 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 6: But I think the. 317 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 3: Rams defense is still not talked about enough. They only 318 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 3: average seventeen points a game given up per contest, which 319 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,679 Speaker 3: is very impressive. I just mentioned Dallas for most of 320 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 3: the season has been giving up thirty points a game. However, 321 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 3: as good as the Rams are, and they are good, 322 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 3: they're getting a little bit of the injury bug now. 323 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 3: Fortunately they seem to play fifty two tight ends every week, 324 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 3: so nobody's gonna miss Higby. But as far as being 325 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 3: a good team, it still amazes me that the kicking 326 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 3: game is that unreliable place kicking I'm talking about. They 327 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 3: have two kickers, and it's kind of like the quarterback situation. 328 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 3: When you have two you have none. I still say 329 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 3: the Rams have none in that department. 330 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: The Rams have allowed the fewest points in the NFL 331 00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 1: this year, with one hundred and seventy two.

What's happening? Man? I you know what, we. 395 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 7: Should all be lane Kiffing. That'd be fun, you know, 396 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:51,680 Speaker 7: I mean you get to you know, do I choose 397 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:56,399 Speaker 7: between being you know, generational wealthy for like ten rounds 398 00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:57,840 Speaker 7: of my family or twenty. 399 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 6: Like it's not that, you know, I like Pete. 400 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: I really like the fact that the way both of 401 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 1: these both sides are dealing with this. Lane Kiffin's not 402 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 1: running from it. He's not doing a Nick Saban. Guys, 403 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 1: I'm not going to Alabama. And then two days later 404 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,919 Speaker 1: he's at Alabama and Mississippi is like, Okay, this is 405 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 1: how it's being done in college football. This is how 406 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:21,120 Speaker 1: coaches get poached, and we want a decision, and we're 407 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:22,920 Speaker 1: going to get something. The day after the egg Bowl. 408 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 1: That being said, I can't believe the day after the 409 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 1: Egg Bowl we're not going to find out that Lane 410 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 1: Kiffin's going someplace else. And the only question is, really 411 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 1: does he coach through the playoff or do they replace 412 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 1: him going into it? 413 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,879 Speaker 7: I mean, this is sticky because like that's about as 414 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 7: low rent as a guess. Like from all sides, if 415 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,879 Speaker 7: you did it, you keep preaching, you know, buy in, 416 00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 7: buy in, buy in, tell your players and everyone to 417 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 7: come to Old Miss. And everyone's smart. Everyone knows coaches 418 00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 7: leave and players leave and all that kind of stuff. 419 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,920 Speaker 7: But you're in the college football playoff with a chance 420 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:59,679 Speaker 7: for the national championship. Like, really, you're gonna get that 421 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:01,920 Speaker 7: coach in a bowl game? Okay, that that's a little 422 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 7: you know, bad, but okay, fine, but not coaching in 423 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,439 Speaker 7: the college football playoffs when you have a shot at 424 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 7: the national title. So if this does, he's gonna leave 425 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 7: for somewhere, either Florida or LSU probably, And like if Florida, 426 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 7: LSU or they're gonna say, you know, we're gonna pay 427 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 7: you one hundred jillion dollars, come start, you know, doing 428 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,919 Speaker 7: your job for us. But really what they should do 429 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 7: is say, hey, look, coach to the Bowl, you go 430 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,639 Speaker 7: to the playoff until a few weeks, and then start 431 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,120 Speaker 7: from there. My guess is that's going to be kind 432 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:33,640 Speaker 7: of what has to happen, because man, that's just that's 433 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 7: just a pr stunt. That's just about as low as 434 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 7: it gets that you would not you know, give your 435 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 7: team a take the shot at coaching in the National championship. 436 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 10: I think it's just the interesting thing. He used his 437 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:48,160 Speaker 10: running back as a prop. We're talking ninety million dollars 438 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 10: the rumor number there at LSU. 439 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,680 Speaker 5: But is he waiting for some other coaching job to open. 440 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 2: I don't think so. 441 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 7: I mean I think honestly, yeah, I mean it's you know, 442 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,440 Speaker 7: good luck with that because you know, doesn't win a 443 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 7: national championship yet, and he's already on the hot seat. 444 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:06,400 Speaker 7: So it's a you know, it's that's if you want that. Hey, 445 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:08,880 Speaker 7: you're bringing on and all your lane kiffness. Let's see 446 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:09,879 Speaker 7: if this all works. 447 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 2: You know. 448 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,360 Speaker 7: So, Okay, he's the hot coach going and I've I'm 449 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:15,879 Speaker 7: a huge fan. I've always thought, you know, he's actually 450 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 7: under raked if you kind of think about it, you know, 451 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 7: he's he's kind of always been in sort of a 452 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 7: strange weird underdog role. I mean, USC was you know, 453 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 7: hit with the Reggie Bush penalties when he was there. 454 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 7: Never really got a chance to open it all up 455 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 7: in Tennessee. He was there for one year at the 456 00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:32,679 Speaker 7: best year of the program had in a while, and 457 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 7: then left for the US. He got job, which at 458 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 7: the time looked like a bigger gig. So you know, 459 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 7: nothing is all missed, but it's not doesn't have the 460 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 7: money done, know the resources. It's not LSU or Florida 461 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:44,480 Speaker 7: or you know, one of these other gigs you might take. 462 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 1: All right, So if I said to you Pete, all right, 463 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 1: I'm going to Vegas. I got a lot of money. 464 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 1: I'm putting it on. What for Lane Kiff in the 465 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 1: day after the egg Bowl? What do we find out? 466 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 1: Do we find out where he's going, what. 467 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:57,160 Speaker 6: Do we get? 468 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:01,440 Speaker 7: I think my guess would be probably LSU first, Florida one, 469 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 7: be one of those two, and I would get again, 470 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,159 Speaker 7: I maybe it's just me and this is you know whatever, 471 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 7: I'm just you know, just a simple what writer who 472 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 7: you know talks about these things. I there's no way 473 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 7: he does this in his until like after the college 474 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 7: Football Playoffs, And I think that would be his announcements, like, 475 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:24,160 Speaker 7: because you look, if you're Lane Kiffin, you know you 476 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 7: you're in control. Here they're trying to pitch you. So 477 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 7: this is on Kiffin. You know, he's got to be 478 00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 7: the one to say I am you know, yes, I'm 479 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:34,400 Speaker 7: taking your job, but not after I not until after 480 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 7: I finished the drow of these guys. 481 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:39,399 Speaker 10: So who's the consolation prize to the team that doesn't 482 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 10: get to Lane Kiffin? 483 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,400 Speaker 7: Yeah, I don't know. I mean the problem is you 484 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:44,960 Speaker 7: never know. I mean I could just throw out names 485 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 7: like John Summall from Tulane would be a good one, 486 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:50,640 Speaker 7: you know, just because he kind of had the tie 487 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 7: ins in the area and he's doing a good job 488 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,440 Speaker 7: of Tulaine. He might go to the college football playoff. 489 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:56,439 Speaker 7: And you know, certainly there are a whole slew of 490 00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 7: you know names out there who might not be known 491 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:02,439 Speaker 7: to the know the mass public. You know, missus Charles 492 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 7: hof who you know last year took Marshall to win 493 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,919 Speaker 7: the Sun Belt and so they miss was awful and 494 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 7: uh then took took Southern missing. He might take them 495 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 7: to the Sun Built Championship. You know, Signetti Light the bat. 496 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:17,400 Speaker 7: You know, the new coach James Madison's doing a great job. 497 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 7: I mean there's all sorts of names like that, but 498 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:22,200 Speaker 7: you never know until you get the guy in the 499 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 7: building and let him rumble, because you can always say, Okay, 500 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 7: this is a perfect fit. Like Lincoln Riley is the 501 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:30,159 Speaker 7: perfect fit for USC, and you know he's doing a 502 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:31,879 Speaker 7: good job. But has he blown it up like we 503 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 7: thought he wouldn't know? You know, you just never quite 504 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:39,400 Speaker 7: know who has that kind of right mix because sometimes 505 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:41,919 Speaker 7: you know you're Scott Frost at UCF and sometimes you're 506 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 7: Scott Frost at Nebraska. It just doesn't quite work the 507 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 7: what you want. 508 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:49,440 Speaker 1: All right, Pete, Let's get to the game of the 509 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:53,199 Speaker 1: day tomorrow, USC and Oregon. Everything on the line for 510 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,120 Speaker 1: the Trojans. Basically they can make the College Football Playoff 511 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 1: with a win. Oregon's a big favorite. But I'll tell 512 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 1: you what, Pete, I just have a sneaking suspicion USC 513 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:07,119 Speaker 1: plays their best game tomorrow. And we're talking about Lincoln 514 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 1: Riley believing in him again, like their offense has been 515 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 1: so good all year long. I just have a feeling 516 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 1: we're going to get a big game from offensively because 517 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 1: Oregon's had trouble, right, they had trouble with Indiana's offense 518 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 1: earlier this year. 519 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:20,919 Speaker 6: I just I don't know. 520 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 1: I just feel like we're going to get a big 521 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 1: win from USC tomorrow. 522 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 6: You with me against me on that, and. 523 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,160 Speaker 7: It's kept with you, except I think it's coming from 524 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 7: the defense. I hope that is going to give the 525 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 7: pressure to Dante more. And look to your point, you 526 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 7: know who who's Oregon being this is actually goes to 527 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 7: the Big Ten this year? I mean, you know, Ohio 528 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,120 Speaker 7: State tomorrow when they play Rutgers, that's gonna be their 529 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 7: fifth straight game against the team. It's not going bowling. 530 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,440 Speaker 7: You know, look at the the you know the schedule 531 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:49,880 Speaker 7: for Oregon. You're right, they did lose. They played two 532 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 7: really good teams. Indiana obviously he was really good, and 533 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:56,359 Speaker 7: they lost by tenant home, and they struggled against Iowa 534 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 7: like you said, you know, he struggled against Penn State. 535 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,719 Speaker 7: You know, you know, rolling up Minnesota is nice, but 536 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:05,440 Speaker 7: Minnesota's not that good. I'm with you. Either it's either 537 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,160 Speaker 7: goes one of two ways. Like you said, I think 538 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 7: I'm picking USC outright this so I'm with you, or 539 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 7: it's just Oregon comes in, it's like, all right, now 540 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 7: we're gonna take our game up with you know, five 541 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:20,160 Speaker 7: more notches and just you know, shows like okay, well 542 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 7: that's Oregon. Okay, they're they're in. But the funny part 543 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 7: about this is, though you kind of started out all right, 544 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 7: so let's say USC does win, you know, and they're 545 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 7: still gonna beat UCLA, which you know, let's assume if 546 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,800 Speaker 7: Nico's back, you know, weird things after that thing. But okay, 547 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 7: so if USC is, that means Oregon's out, you know, 548 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 7: if I guess right at that point, But like, who's that? 549 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 7: I mean, someone in this mix has to be out. 550 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,199 Speaker 7: And this is gonna get really quirky because there's a 551 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 7: lot of teams who think they're gonna be and like 552 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 7: you you know, I'm on the Twitter machine a lot 553 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:55,600 Speaker 7: pretty much BYU fans all think they're in the college 554 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,359 Speaker 7: football playoffs and I'm not. I don't have the energy 555 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 7: right now to be like, I don't know, I don't 556 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:04,919 Speaker 7: think you are Miami. Thing. The fans are like, well, 557 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,840 Speaker 7: you know, nore names in, Well we beat notre games, 558 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 7: should we be in? And like yeah, actually, how that 559 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 7: should work? Not going to work, So there's a lot 560 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 7: of lot of angst out there. And then the other 561 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 7: X factor involved here. Let's see if if a MISZOI, 562 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:21,919 Speaker 7: you know, can knock off Oklahoma tomorrow when they have 563 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:23,880 Speaker 7: it now that they have their quarterback back, who knows 564 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 7: or maybe maybe what happens if Michigan wins out, what 565 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 7: happens if they do it again? And then ten and 566 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 7: two Michigan's got to be in. So there's a whole 567 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 7: lot of things that can still happen out there. 568 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 10: Yeah, certainly, coming off the the last rankings, I think 569 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:41,119 Speaker 10: you probably had some meetings in the state of Utah 570 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:43,920 Speaker 10: saying what do they have against us? As you got 571 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:46,639 Speaker 10: two teams that get bounced based on the way the 572 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 10: rankings and and the way this is set up. But 573 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:52,640 Speaker 10: you mentioned the Missouri Oklahoma game. Oklahoma with a narrow 574 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 10: win over Alabama a week ago. Is this one where 575 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:57,640 Speaker 10: Hardy and company can run over them a bit? 576 00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 7: I think I think Oklahoma gets done. I mean, look, 577 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:05,640 Speaker 7: nobody beats mac teams like Maszoo. But when it's time, 578 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:07,720 Speaker 7: you know, prime time, and they got to beat the 579 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 7: big ones, doesn't quite happen. They always play well and 580 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,679 Speaker 7: then all of a sudden something strange happens and doesn't 581 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 7: quite work like they wanted it too. So I think 582 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:19,440 Speaker 7: Oklahoma wins, but I wouldn't be shocked. I wouldn't be 583 00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 7: shocked if Oklahoma, you know, blows it did either get 584 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:24,679 Speaker 7: to Maszoo or LSU. I still think there are a 585 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 7: couple curve balls in here that we're not seeing quite yet. 586 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 7: So yeah, I kind of think Oklahoma wins tomorrow, but 587 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 7: I do think that's gonna be one of the more 588 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 7: fun games of the day. 589 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:35,919 Speaker 6: You know. 590 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 1: I keep looking and it's one of those things where 591 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,320 Speaker 1: you don't realize how far they fall and in such 592 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:44,240 Speaker 1: a short period of time. But tomorrow top twenty five game, 593 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:48,360 Speaker 1: ye have Arizona State and Colorado. Colorado at three and seven. 594 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 1: Things just have gone absolutely downhill for Dion Sanders. Now, 595 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 1: obviously this I think they're gonna say at the end 596 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 1: of this year, they're gonna go okay, because look, they're 597 00:26:58,119 --> 00:26:59,880 Speaker 1: not going to finish last in the Big twelve because 598 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,480 Speaker 1: Oklahoma State. He kind of owns that spot right now. 599 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 1: But I wonder, I factor this year it's going to 600 00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:08,919 Speaker 1: be Dion's gonna prove it or he's out in Colorado 601 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:12,119 Speaker 1: next year, because it's it's gone from the September of 602 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 1: his first year and everything's been downhill from there. 603 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 7: Pete, Yeah, No, I mean, or you know, like I 604 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,439 Speaker 7: keep kind of saying, I'm sticking by my thing that 605 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 7: you know, we're going to see him flounder this week. 606 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 7: I still say should door standards is possibly the most 607 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:29,879 Speaker 7: underappreciated college quarterback. I mean, he had a historic run 608 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 7: with his you know, accuracy you play, but like all 609 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 7: of a sudden, you know, you don't have any more 610 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 7: family members, you know, here it can help the cause out, 611 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 7: and you know they cannot seem to find the right mix, 612 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:43,879 Speaker 7: and it's I love Deon. You know I said this before. 613 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:47,480 Speaker 7: The problem is sometimes you have to build foundations. You 614 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 7: can't just go the transfer portal route, you know, touch 615 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 7: this text for example, they had a great base already, 616 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 7: they had good players, they had veterans, and then they 617 00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:00,640 Speaker 7: use the transfer portal in nil to pay for all 618 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,119 Speaker 7: the guys who just kind of took them up another 619 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 7: few notches as opposed to doing wholesale changes where you're 620 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:09,120 Speaker 7: trying to do it all from the transfer portal, which 621 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 7: is really hard to do. But you're right, I mean, 622 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 7: this has just been a bad year and they just 623 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:16,920 Speaker 7: don't look like abel One. They're not doing anything right. 624 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 7: They just they don't have the infrastructure. Their lines just 625 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 7: have not been good enough. They got away with it 626 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 7: with the Chadur and some of the talents of the 627 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 7: last few years not happened in this year. 628 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:29,480 Speaker 1: You know, I almost feel like Pete sometimes when you 629 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:33,719 Speaker 1: have when coaches or quarterbacks have a surprise amount of 630 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,600 Speaker 1: success right away, and you know, Dion going into Colorado 631 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 1: and reshaping the program, all. 632 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 6: Of that, and you could call it a success because 633 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:40,920 Speaker 6: of what he did to the program and the attention. 634 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 6: Absolutely you to follow up on that. 635 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:48,000 Speaker 1: You don't really know how to do it because you expect, well, 636 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 1: how he did it last year is how it's going 637 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 1: to work, and you don't know how to navigate all 638 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 1: the mind fields ahead. And because you had too much 639 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 1: success too early, some people can't deal with that and 640 00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:58,479 Speaker 1: figure out how to sustain it. 641 00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 7: Yeah, And part of the problem them is is then 642 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 7: everyone expects it right away and you know, again you 643 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 7: have to have you have to build it up, you 644 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 7: need recruiting classes, you need I mean, and they're trying 645 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 7: to do this fast and I get it, and I 646 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 7: kind of I was a fan of the way Deon 647 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:16,920 Speaker 7: did it when he first started was he basically walked 648 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:18,920 Speaker 7: into the room and said, you guys aren't good enough. 649 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:21,360 Speaker 7: I'm going to get better players. And it's great, you know, 650 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 7: if you're a fan of Colorado football, that's kind of 651 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 7: what you want. As harsh as it is for the 652 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 7: players who are there, the problem has been they just 653 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 7: haven't been able to have the continuity there. They just 654 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 7: haven't been able to figure out how to get like 655 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 7: I said, get the lines together. That's like the hardest 656 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 7: piece to put I've asked coaches about this and they 657 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 7: always kind of say the thing. It's just to find 658 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 7: five guys for that offensive line. It's just like the 659 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 7: hardest thing to do because it's you got to you 660 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 7: got to get the guys who can play metton Well 661 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 7: and Nesh together and you have to have the right 662 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:54,840 Speaker 7: offensive line coach and oh and Colorado's has not been 663 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:56,280 Speaker 7: able to do that yet. 664 00:29:56,720 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 10: So what lawsuits and pay out to have been the 665 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:04,320 Speaker 10: fun thing for LSU. The the Brian Kelly thing might 666 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 10: be the most fun. But beyond Lane Kiffin, I mean, 667 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 10: Lane Kiffin's interesting. We got nora ed trackers at all. 668 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 6: But now that you. 669 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:14,480 Speaker 5: Didn't really fire me, a ton of scenario going on here. 670 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 5: This is fun. 671 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 7: Pete an educated I'm an educated man. I don't get 672 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 7: this one. So, like, did you fire Brian Kelly? Did 673 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 7: you not fire him? Did he leave? I didn't certainly 674 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 7: didn't seem like he left on his own. Uh So, 675 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 7: I'm I'm kind of tried to figure this one out. 676 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 7: I'm not sure what LSU standing. It's like, you know, 677 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 7: like the James Franklin thing was pretty crispin Klean, like, 678 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 7: go get another job and you know everyone's gonna get paid. 679 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:44,680 Speaker 7: You know, everything will be all right. Franklin did okay, 680 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:47,800 Speaker 7: boom boom boom done. But you know it's Brian Kelly. 681 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 7: It's just there's never anything easy when it comes to 682 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 7: this guy. And by the way, because you know we 683 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 7: you know, just bring it all together. Remember he took 684 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 7: that LSU job when Notre Dame was still in the 685 00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 7: mix for the college football play. It wasn't a done 686 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 7: deal yet, and that was that was like, you know, 687 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 7: that's you know me, I'm going to biff the line. 688 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 7: I don't do mean machine well, but like that's just 689 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 7: an American. You know, it's just you don't you do 690 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 7: whatever you want, but you don't leave your team with 691 00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 7: guys shot at the college football playoff and you know 692 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 7: that's what he did then, and certainly you know so 693 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 7: I don't think Alane's going to do this now. It's 694 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:22,800 Speaker 7: just it's a little bit too low rent. But hey, look, 695 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:25,000 Speaker 7: if you're LSU, they apparently have a whole lot of 696 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 7: money somewhere for these coaches. And I know there are 697 00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:30,320 Speaker 7: people in me who like education that you know, state 698 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 7: and school aren't so pleased about this.

Two more big games in 774 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 1: the NFL to take a look at. But uh, you 775 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 1: know this is this story from the NBA today. This 776 00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:20,759 Speaker 1: is this is just just a cherry on top of 777 00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:21,959 Speaker 1: your Sunday that you need. 778 00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:23,960 Speaker 5: You really didn't want me sending that along. 779 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:26,440 Speaker 1: Now, No, no, no, no, but again I'm not surprised, 780 00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:27,239 Speaker 1: and I'll tell you why. 781 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:27,759 Speaker 6: So. 782 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:31,480 Speaker 1: Saint John's head coach, Rick Patino, who once was the 783 00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:33,359 Speaker 1: head coach of the New York Knicks, is also once 784 00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 1: head coach of Louisville, once the head coach of Donovan Mitchell. 785 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,279 Speaker 1: He went on a podcast today and he said, you know, 786 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:43,280 Speaker 1: when the Knicks were picking in the draft and Dono 787 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:46,399 Speaker 1: of Mitchell was coming out, I begged them to take 788 00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:49,720 Speaker 1: Donovan Mitchell. I said, hey, this guy's great. Take Donovan 789 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:54,360 Speaker 1: Mitchell and Phil Jackson. The Knicks told him no. Here's 790 00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 1: Rick Patino relaying that story. 791 00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 11: So I called the Knicks they had the seventh pick. 792 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:01,880 Speaker 11: I called him up and said, listen, take take my 793 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:05,000 Speaker 11: guy Downovan Mitchell. He's going to kill it. And he said, no, 794 00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:06,520 Speaker 11: I don't know. I don't know if we could take 795 00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:10,799 Speaker 11: him that high. Seven. They wound up taking Frank Nicoletti 796 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:12,640 Speaker 11: or Nicola Nicolina. 797 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 4: They could have had done him at seven. They couldn't 798 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:15,359 Speaker 4: take him. 799 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 11: It was too high, but they took Frank. 800 00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:20,080 Speaker 1: I think Frank Nicoletti is a comedian. I think I 801 00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 1: saw him on Chelsea lately a couple of times. 802 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:23,560 Speaker 6: I think he was there. 803 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:24,160 Speaker 3: Uh. 804 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 1: So they did get Frank Nitakuino, who was the guard 805 00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:30,319 Speaker 1: from France that Phil Jackson took, because you know, that's 806 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 1: the thing about Phil is that he is completely one 807 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:35,640 Speaker 1: of the what he ran the Knicks and he was 808 00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 1: making decisions. He was I'm the smartest guy in the room, 809 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:41,279 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna take these guys right now. It worked 810 00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 1: out with a guy like Porzingis who didn't want to stay, 811 00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:46,279 Speaker 1: and then Nikina it didn't work out, and they could 812 00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:49,440 Speaker 1: have had Donovan Mitchell. Uh and Niakina. We found his 813 00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:51,320 Speaker 1: way out of the league. But I'm not surprised because 814 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:53,960 Speaker 1: Phil Jackson. The one thing Phil Jackson loves more than 815 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:57,440 Speaker 1: anything else in the world is big guards. He loves 816 00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:00,080 Speaker 1: big guards. And Niakina had the big wing span. He 817 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 1: was a great defensive player, and Phil thought he was 818 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:04,680 Speaker 1: gonna be the next great two way guard. So yeah, 819 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 1: I'm taking him instead of Spider Mitchell or Frank Nicoletti 820 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 1: or you Knowino throws out there, throw in shade but 821 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:13,919 Speaker 1: that is typical mix. Now I do want to say 822 00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:16,880 Speaker 1: this as well. It's not like the Knicks were the 823 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 1: only team you think. Rick Patino is the only team 824 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:22,399 Speaker 1: he called to take Donovan Mitchell was the Knicks. 825 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:24,120 Speaker 6: Everybody else could have taken him. 826 00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 1: Everybody else could have taken him, right, everybody else could 827 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:29,520 Speaker 1: have taken Steph Curry. Everybody else could. But no it's 828 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:32,160 Speaker 1: the Knicks, and and Phil Jackson stunk running the Knicks. 829 00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:34,200 Speaker 1: So this is what we do. But yeah, this is 830 00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:36,680 Speaker 1: a typical on brand nick story. Oh we had this 831 00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:38,920 Speaker 1: great star we could have gotten. Noa noa, No, it's 832 00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:41,440 Speaker 1: not like we took another guy. We're gonna take a 833 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:43,360 Speaker 1: chance at a stab in the dark to take a 834 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,200 Speaker 1: player from France, and we have no idea how his 835 00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:49,319 Speaker 1: game is gonna relate to to the NBA. Right, we 836 00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:51,359 Speaker 1: think we do, but we don't. We see him against 837 00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:54,359 Speaker 1: competition where we're not sure how to measure it. And 838 00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:57,920 Speaker 1: and this is just absolutely maddening. Like I feel like 839 00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:01,760 Speaker 1: teams now do that and they dip into the foreign 840 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,839 Speaker 1: market because they want to feel like, hey, we've done 841 00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:08,040 Speaker 1: our homework and if we hit on this guy, we 842 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:09,400 Speaker 1: look like geniuses. 843 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:10,319 Speaker 6: We look like. 844 00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:13,560 Speaker 1: Absolute gene because we're taking somebody that nobody knows becomes 845 00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 1: a really good player and we think he's the next 846 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:17,640 Speaker 1: Luca or he could be at very at least the 847 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 1: next Ricky Rubio, and we wind up with a guy 848 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:23,319 Speaker 1: for a decade or a decade plus, but everybody thinks 849 00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:25,640 Speaker 1: they're so smart. We're going to go do this rather 850 00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:28,120 Speaker 1: than take a college guy that, ah, maybe he's a 851 00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:30,239 Speaker 1: little bit smaller, maybe he's not gonna be able to 852 00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:31,480 Speaker 1: play defensive way he wants it to. 853 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 6: We find a way to not like him. 854 00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:36,120 Speaker 1: But yeah, if we go overseas for a guy, we 855 00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:38,200 Speaker 1: look like the smartest guys in the world because we 856 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:40,920 Speaker 1: know something that nobody else did. And I really do 857 00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:45,160 Speaker 1: think that's a that's part of a psychology when when 858 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:47,360 Speaker 1: teams make picks like this and make big decisions in 859 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:49,839 Speaker 1: the draft, they want to show we are smarter than 860 00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:52,200 Speaker 1: everybody else. And Phil Jackson did that all the time 861 00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:53,640 Speaker 1: when he was running the knicks on the Lakers. 862 00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:55,400 Speaker 10: Well go back to when he was with the Bulls 863 00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:58,840 Speaker 10: and how they would go overseas on the legend of 864 00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:02,840 Speaker 10: Tony Kukoach great but certainly one of many guys in 865 00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:06,000 Speaker 10: that era that was drafted on the wish and to 866 00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:09,600 Speaker 10: hope that being battle tested by playing professional ball at 867 00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:12,960 Speaker 10: a young age, they come right in and physically and 868 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:16,080 Speaker 10: mentally be ready for the wear and tear of the NBA. 869 00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:19,919 Speaker 10: Some huge hits, some huge misses along the way. In 870 00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:23,759 Speaker 10: this particular case, well, we know what history says. And 871 00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:25,640 Speaker 10: for Rick Patino, he gets to take a little bit 872 00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 10: of a victory lap here for his guy, now, Frank Nicoletti.
