1 00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:03,480 Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:07,880 Speaker 1: Sports Radio. We somehow made it to the final hour 3 00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:10,400 Speaker 1: on this Wednesday. If you missed the interview with Brian 4 00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:12,920 Speaker 1: Kelly from last hour and go to Dan Patrick dot 5 00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:16,079 Speaker 1: com you can listen to all of our interviews there. 6 00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:19,560 Speaker 1: But we touched on a variety of things with Brian 7 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:23,079 Speaker 1: Kelling as he's the new head coach at LSU, but 8 00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:26,360 Speaker 1: also who's going to go into Notre Dame? Are they 9 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:29,280 Speaker 1: gonna wait for a coach at Notre Dame? And I 10 00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:32,080 Speaker 1: think that's really the key. The less you hear about 11 00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:34,760 Speaker 1: Notre Dame, the more it feels like they know who 12 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,640 Speaker 1: they're going to bring in? Is it Luke Fickle from Cincinnati? 13 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,800 Speaker 1: And he'd be following the same path that Brian Kelly 14 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:43,240 Speaker 1: did when he left Cincinnati to go to Notre Dame 15 00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:46,199 Speaker 1: eight seven seven three d P Show email address DP 16 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:48,680 Speaker 1: at Dan Patrick dot com, Twitter handle at DP show. 17 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:52,479 Speaker 1: Matt Leinart Fox Sports former USC quarterback. He will join 18 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,880 Speaker 1: us coming up in a little bit. Mclove and the 19 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 1: poll question from our two we're gonna keep it. I 20 00:00:58,040 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 1: think we could change it up. Team that is most 21 00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 1: likely to jump into the final four that's on the 22 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,800 Speaker 1: outside looking in Oklahoma State one, but Notre Dame not 23 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 1: that far behind in the poll. People still think No 24 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 1: Dame as a chance. Here's Lincoln Riley yesterday with Colin 25 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:15,319 Speaker 1: Cowherd talking about did he want to avoid going to 26 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 1: the SEC. The leadership at OU was fantastic communicating with 27 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:23,039 Speaker 1: me throughout that process, asked feedback. I was certainly not 28 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 1: saying I made the decision by any stretch, but I 29 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 1: was able to give some feedback and be a part 30 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 1: of those discussions, and I think it's going to be 31 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:31,560 Speaker 1: a great move for OU I do. And that had 32 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 1: no part of it. He said that he slept for 33 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: a couple of hours and woke up and had a 34 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 1: conversation with USC people and he could feel their energy. 35 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 1: You could feel that the leadership from the very top 36 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:46,400 Speaker 1: willing to do the things that maybe haven't been done 37 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 1: here as of reason to get USC where it needs 38 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 1: to be. Interesting comments there, but it feels like there's 39 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 1: more of a national outrage with what Brian Kelly did 40 00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: than what Lincoln Riley did because Notre Dame is polarizing. 41 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 1: That's it. Notre Dame is polarizing. Brian Kelly polarizing, Lincoln 42 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 1: Riley oh Man, offensive genius. So he's going to USC, Yeah, 43 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 1: I can't blame him. Yeah, thirty eight years of age, 44 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 1: and yeah, sure, Brian Kelly, what's wait, he's sixty, he's 45 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:23,640 Speaker 1: leaving Notre Dame. Wait, Notre Dame has got a chance 46 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: to be in the final four. Absolutely all of those things, 47 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:28,799 Speaker 1: and I'm going to guess that made it even tougher. 48 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 1: But Brian Kelly made his decision, and look what he 49 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 1: did in those twelve years. He made irrelevant more relevant 50 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 1: from the standpoint of being able to be in the 51 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 1: conversation with the SEC. And I always thought that, you know, 52 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 1: that's something that urban Meyer was able to bring to 53 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 1: the Big ten when he went to Ohio State. He 54 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 1: brought more of an SEC feel to the Big ten 55 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: and was very successful there. You know, you got Brian Kelly, 56 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: who had a glass ceiling at Notre Dame. He didn't 57 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: have any real say in who gets in as far 58 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 1: as academically, the admissions part of this, even school discipline 59 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 1: for players. This is something that you know, Rick Neuheisel, 60 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,639 Speaker 1: former coach, told us in the first hour of the program, 61 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: there's a lot involved in this, but it just feels 62 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:27,639 Speaker 1: like this happens every year coaches leave, but this window 63 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 1: that these coaches like this is the opportunity because it's 64 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 1: recruiting time. Bryan Kelly's recruiting in Orange County gets on 65 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 1: the plane flying back home and says he found out 66 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 1: that they had finalized the LSU deal, and then he 67 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: text his players. Landed at five thirty, had a meeting 68 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 1: with them at seven, and then he goes to work 69 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 1: for LSU. I mean, it's crazy that this is the 70 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: system and until college football wants to change the system, 71 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 1: this is what's going to happen. And loyalty. Loyalty has 72 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 1: should have a dollar sign attached to it. You it 73 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 1: just should, because that's all this is. It's all transactional. 74 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 1: I mean, Brian Kelly has got you know, purple on Hey, 75 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: you have your press, Can you have your meeting with 76 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 1: your players? Next thing you know, you're changing your wardrobe, 77 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 1: had even been back to South Bend to pack up, 78 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: got a new house on campus. You know, all it 79 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 1: is is you get off one jet and you get 80 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 1: on a different jet. Let's h I got a green 81 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:44,720 Speaker 1: jet and a purple jet. Let's hit. You know, he 82 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 1: bettered himself. He's sixty years of age. He's gonna get paid, 83 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: and you know, is he gonna last ten years at LSU? 84 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: I doubt it, But he wants to win a national championship. Yes, 85 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 1: it's interesting because it's like the job stays exactly the same. 86 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: It's just the logo on your polo shirt that changes, 87 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,039 Speaker 1: you know. I mean that's there's really no difference between 88 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 1: three days ago and today, other than the bank account 89 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 1: and which place you're directing kids. And he said that 90 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: Notre Dame had distinctions, not limitations. Notre Dame has limitations, 91 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 1: not distinctions. Now this is about recruiting in the academics. 92 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 1: But ed Orgeron got fired after two years. And as 93 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: I told you, I don't know how long ago this is. 94 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: I'd have to check my phone. But I had a 95 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 1: source say, you know, they wanted to fire ed Orgeron 96 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 1: early enough because they had to bring somebody in who 97 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 1: can at least get them keep them in the conversation 98 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 1: with arch Manning that it was really important that you 99 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: were going to be able to at least be in 100 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: on the sweepstakes to get arch Manning there and keep 101 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:58,279 Speaker 1: him in Louisiana. Yeah, I got a good hire for 102 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:02,160 Speaker 1: Brian Kelley. David Cutliff just got fired at Duke. He's 103 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,919 Speaker 1: the partner of Peyton and Eli. I believe his former coach, 104 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 1: you know, bring him in, Like would you do something 105 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: like that like hire a Manning? Like is it that 106 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 1: important of recruited. I don't know in a situation like that, 107 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: but you just want to be have a seat at 108 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:19,359 Speaker 1: the table. And it's embarrassing if LSU doesn't have a 109 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: seat at the table for Arch Manning playing in New Orleans, 110 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 1: and I think that's really important. Yeah, pull that was 111 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: a sneaky one this week. Duke moving on from David 112 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: Cutcliffe and he made them. I think he went to 113 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 1: five straight bowl games there. I know it's cooled off 114 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: a little bit, but they were a respectable football school 115 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 1: with him. That's that's a nutty one. We'll get phone 116 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: calls coming up. H seven seven three D P show 117 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: email address dp A Dan Patrick dot com. Here was 118 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 1: another thing that came up. I asked Brian Kelly, what 119 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: about your assistant coaches? It noted in and he's sort 120 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:57,039 Speaker 1: of figuring that out. You got offensive coordinator, defensive coordinator 121 00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: who are going to be in high demand do you 122 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 1: bring them to LSU? What's Notre Dame due to keep them? 123 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 1: Because if I'm Notre Dame and I got a really 124 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: good young offensive coordinator, Tommy Reese former quarterback there, that 125 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator Freeman is highly thought of. Are they gonna 126 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 1: are they gonna hire somebody from within or you're gonna 127 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 1: bring in Luke Fickle or is there an outlier here? 128 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 1: But all of those things, that's conversations going on right now. 129 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 1: And Notre Dame doesn't have a game, they don't play 130 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 1: until the Bull game, and a lot of downtime here. 131 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 1: All right, we'll get some phone calls. Matt Leiner, the 132 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: former USC quarterback, will join us coming up. What a 133 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 1: wild day. It's been crazy last couple of days. Just 134 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: been wild. And then you start to hear all of 135 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: these things. I mean, this is what happens when you 136 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 1: have great sources, and you know, they just tell me 137 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 1: things like these are things that are going on. And 138 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 1: I had to source said, hey, I see where you're 139 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: gonna have Brian Kelly on ask him about the feelers 140 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 1: that were put out. He said, okay, by USC and 141 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: he goes or and I go Brian Kelly he goes. Yeah, 142 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 1: So I asked Brian Kelly, did USC reach out? He said, well, 143 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 1: and a lot of schools that reached out. Okay, that 144 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 1: means USC reached out. Not the biggest thing in the world, 145 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 1: but just people who know what's going on behind the scenes. Yeah. 146 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 1: Could you imagine if Brian Kelly left Notre Dame for USC? 147 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 1: How bun bigger that one? Okay, that one would shock me. 148 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: Not much would shock me anymore, but that one certainly would. Uh, 149 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 1: Tim and Texas? I Tim, what's on your mind today? Great? Great? Tim? 150 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 1: All right, so sens there's nothing really going on in 151 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,319 Speaker 1: the sports role today, Dan, I want to talk about 152 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 1: the stat of today?

Um. 155 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 1: Is there is there tension between Seaton and I about 156 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 1: stat of the day? Oh? Is that when I don't 157 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 1: hit the music? Yeah at the right time. Yeah, that's 158 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: not tension. That's just me expecting too much out of 159 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 1: Yeah exactly, then you should. I should. And that's that's 160 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:31,199 Speaker 1: my fault. I keep expecting Seaton to be something he's not. 161 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:36,319 Speaker 1: It's not. It's just not fair in my and I apologize, Well, 162 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,319 Speaker 1: you're you're not setting me up for success with all 163 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:42,439 Speaker 1: of these expectations. Something you doing my job properly? Yeah? Yeah, 164 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 1: I love when seen shoots back. Was that really a 165 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:52,079 Speaker 1: stat like trivia the day of the day trivia today? Yes, Polly, 166 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 1: I got a question. You know, we were talking with 167 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: Rick new heisl about limitations that Notre Dame with recruiting 168 00:09:56,760 --> 00:10:01,559 Speaker 1: and academics. Does USC have similar right limitations? Because from 169 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: what I've heard, I know very little about USC. Dan 170 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 1: you do that the academic challenges to get into USC, 171 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 1: beyond the jokes of varsity blues, are really high. It's 172 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 1: a very competitive school. Can they get in every athlete 173 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 1: that they want at USC? I don't know. I know 174 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 1: that it's a really low acceptance rate there at USC, 175 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 1: that USC sort of hovers around some ivy League schools, 176 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 1: Like it's really tough to get into USC unless you know. 177 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 1: I tried to tell my kids just act like you're 178 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 1: a rower.

Just I haven't 212 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 1: heard a lot of those people quieted down considerably. This 213 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:30,839 Speaker 1: is when you have a hot take. You just have 214 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 1: to be fair to entire season, the highs and lows, 215 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 1: the dips you're going to have.

Mahomes 217 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 1: had his, they might be the team to beat in 218 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 1: the ANFC. But a couple of weeks ago, oh, I'd 219 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 1: take Justin Herbert over Patrick Mahomes. Okay, that's the case. 220 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 1: Don't change your mind. But this is where you have 221 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,680 Speaker 1: people who do these hot takes and they just throw 222 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 1: stuff out like, Hey, nobody's gonna record this. Remember this. 223 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 1: You know the Jets should stay with Mike White is 224 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:13,079 Speaker 1: their quarter bit Jamis Winston dark horse candidate for m 225 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 1: Josh Allen's gonna be the MV That's what happens.

If the Chargers beat the Bengals even convincingly, say, 232 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:45,679 Speaker 1: and the Broncos going to Arrowhead and happened to win 233 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 1: that game, it's gonna change all over again, justin Herbert. 234 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: How about Joe Burrow and the Bengals beat the Chargers 235 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 1: and Joe Burrow outperforms justin Herbert, then you're gonna hear 236 00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 1: the following.

I ask him about taking the LSU job. 304 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 1: What does LSU give you that Notre Dame could not 305 00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 1: give you anymore? I don't know if it wasn't it 306 00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 1: really didn't have anything to do with But Notre Dame 307 00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:08,399 Speaker 1: couldn't give me as much as another opportunity, another challenge 308 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,919 Speaker 1: to come down in the sec UM you know, to 309 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:15,960 Speaker 1: play in you know, obviously arguably the best conference in 310 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 1: the country. UM, and and the resources here are incredible, 311 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:25,160 Speaker 1: So you know, I just think another another opportunity, one 312 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,640 Speaker 1: where um, he's going to be challenged weekend and week 313 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:33,960 Speaker 1: out amongst the best.

Uh, you know, my my my agent, 316 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:49,880 Speaker 1: UM handles all that stuff, and so I couldn't tell 317 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 1: you exactly Dan because he doesn't he doesn't keep being 318 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,360 Speaker 1: the loop on all these things.

Because you're 331 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:43,800 Speaker 1: flying from Orange County, and you say in a mass 332 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 1: text to your players seven am meeting and then you 333 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 1: speak to them for about four minutes and then that's it. 334 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 1: You're gone. I had been told by a source that 335 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:58,000 Speaker 1: USC had reached out. I asked coach about that. Did 336 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:02,640 Speaker 1: USC reach out at any point? You know? I think 337 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,160 Speaker 1: I think there was a lot of interest from other schools, 338 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:11,080 Speaker 1: But again, you know, I think that from me, you know, 339 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:14,120 Speaker 1: it was let's get through the season, and once we did, 340 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 1: we kind of measured what was the best situation for me. 341 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 1: In other words, USC reached out. But I don't know 342 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:26,359 Speaker 1: about the other coaches, but also LSU I think put 343 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 1: out feelers at the beginning of this season, and I 344 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 1: think Brian Kelly probably looked at his roster, probably thought, Okay, 345 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 1: I'd like to be the all time leader in wins 346 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 1: at Notre Dame. Now, I don't know that he didn't 347 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:41,680 Speaker 1: acknowledge that that that's why he stayed, but I thought 348 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,919 Speaker 1: that it was that was important enough to stay. And 349 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,919 Speaker 1: then after that he's turning sixty and he wants a 350 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,879 Speaker 1: new challenge. They always say that when you take another job, 351 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: it's you never say, are you kidding me? You look 352 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 1: at all that money, it's ah, you know I was 353 00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:03,679 Speaker 1: looking for another challenge. Yeah, well, national title, but a 354 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 1: ten year deal. Phone calls eight seven seven three D 355 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,160 Speaker 1: P Show email under step and Dan Patrick dot com 356 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:15,359 Speaker 1: Twitter handle at DP show. Lincoln Riley was on The 357 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 1: Herd with Colin Cowherd yesterday and he talked about the 358 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 1: move to USC as opposed to staying away from the SEC. 359 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,199 Speaker 1: The leadership at OU was was fantastic communicating with me 360 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 1: throughout that process, asked feedback. I was certainly not saying 361 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 1: I made the decision by any stretch, but I was 362 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 1: able to give some feedback and be a part of 363 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 1: those discussions. And I think it's going to be a 364 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:38,959 Speaker 1: great move for OU. I do and that that had 365 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 1: no part of it. Well, I don't know what that. 366 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,159 Speaker 1: I mean, how can you say it's going to be 367 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:47,640 Speaker 1: a great move for OU. They're not sure who they're 368 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:53,439 Speaker 1: bringing in, at least Notre Dame. Feels like Luke Fickle 369 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:56,920 Speaker 1: could be waiting in the on deck circle. I don't 370 00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 1: know who's coming in to rescue, you know, but nobody 371 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 1: knew Riley when he took over for Bob Stoops. And 372 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 1: you know, the only thing that would concern me is 373 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:09,400 Speaker 1: what's going to be left at OU this next season 374 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:14,679 Speaker 1: with these five star recruits, three maybe four dcommitting, Spencer 375 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:18,640 Speaker 1: Rattlers already transferring. Is Caleb Williams going to stay there? 376 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: So there's there's a little bit more to this as 377 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 1: you're not in the SEC yet, but you certainly want 378 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,880 Speaker 1: to hit the ground running when you get into the SEC. Yeah, mcluvan, 379 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:30,919 Speaker 1: I'd have thought a worst case scenario for Oklahoma, what 380 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:34,240 Speaker 1: if they become Nebraska. I never would have thought Nebraska 381 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:36,199 Speaker 1: would be an also ran a program. They were the 382 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 1: best when I was younger, and I always thought that 383 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:42,440 Speaker 1: Frank Soulich, you know, was given the short end of 384 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 1: the stick. I thought he did a wonderful job there. 385 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 1: But you know, we keep waiting for Tom Osborne or 386 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:51,120 Speaker 1: Bob Devanny to walk in and that's not happening. Yeah, Poult, 387 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 1: there are programs that move on from established coaches, like 388 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:56,879 Speaker 1: you asked people in Tennessee about letting Phil fulmer go, 389 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 1: and if you had to due, I still regret that rain. Yeah, 390 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 1: that's what they've been trying to replace him for a 391 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 1: long time. Yeah, update the poll results, mc clevin. Okay, 392 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 1: so I did put up best tailgate out of the 393 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:12,440 Speaker 1: four jobs, but I didn't put LSU on there. Okay, 394 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 1: Oklahoma and the Dame or USC Oklahoma is it early leader? Okay? 395 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 1: I think barbecue inspired. Perhaps we got a tweet. Yeah, 396 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 1: I'm fine with that. I have not been to Oklhoma 397 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:29,480 Speaker 1: for a tailgate, but USC gotta love the scenery weather. LSU, 398 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:34,120 Speaker 1: you gotta love the scenery. But and Notre Dame was 399 00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 1: was fun, But Notre Dame was more of a what 400 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 1: I thought it would be that it probably hasn't changed much. 401 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,400 Speaker 1: You know, their tailgates are about the same. Even though 402 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:46,240 Speaker 1: we had a hell of a time finding a beer 403 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:51,120 Speaker 1: that day, didn't we That was just punishing, Like all 404 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:54,720 Speaker 1: I wanted was a beer, just just one beer. Usually 405 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:56,959 Speaker 1: the bros line up to give you a beer, take 406 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,359 Speaker 1: a picture, and it didn't happen. Well, they lined up 407 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 1: for me to do what are those cinnamon shots? Fireball? Fireball? Fireball? 408 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 1: Remember that? Yeah? And it was like everybody wanted me 409 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,120 Speaker 1: to do a fireball, you like, how about a Schlitz? Yeah? 410 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,440 Speaker 1: And I said, and they all had their phones out. 411 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,640 Speaker 1: I go, no, no, no, that that's not how this works. 412 00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 1: You know, get me a beer and then if you 413 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 1: want to take a video of it, fine, but damn, 414 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 1: get me a beer. I don't want these fireballs kind 415 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 1: of lame. I still I'll never get over.

Obviously, I'm ecstatic, which I know what 435 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:32,959 Speaker 1: we're going to talk about, but um, and then and 436 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:35,959 Speaker 1: then just you know, championship Saturday, Championship weekend. I mean, 437 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 1: there's some big games and still a lot of you know, 438 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:41,919 Speaker 1: a handful of scenarios to see who gets into the 439 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,800 Speaker 1: top four. So, yeah, it's been a while the year 440 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 1: in college football. It's been a great year in college football. Uh. 441 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 1: You know, we've been on the road almost every week, 442 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,119 Speaker 1: which has been a lot of fun. And again, but 443 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 1: real quick before we get into this, I'm a little 444 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 1: jealous because every week I see my buddy b Q 445 00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 1: on with you, Brady, and I just you know, I 446 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:02,639 Speaker 1: just give me a little more love, DP if you 447 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,440 Speaker 1: want me to get on more.

I mean, he never won a heisman. 458 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:44,960 Speaker 1: I appreciate that. Man. All right, Um, if I told 459 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 1: you a week ago USC was hiring Lincoln Riley, Notre 460 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:52,119 Speaker 1: Dame was gonna lose, Brian Kelly LSU and Michigan was 461 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 1: going to beat Ohio State. Which one would you have 462 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:59,159 Speaker 1: said that ain't happening. Probably Lincoln Riley to USC. I 463 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,639 Speaker 1: mean that was really and again I'm more, you know, 464 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 1: obviously a little more invested in that, and I didn't 465 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 1: see any of them happening. The only one, to be 466 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 1: honest with you, that I thought how to shot was Michigan. 467 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:13,359 Speaker 1: Now I picked Ohio State and I thought they were 468 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:17,400 Speaker 1: gonna win, but that you know, this team and obviously 469 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:20,119 Speaker 1: now talking about in hindsight, this team is is just 470 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:22,640 Speaker 1: different than it's been in the past, and they went 471 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:25,879 Speaker 1: out and proved that. But um, yeah, the one, the 472 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:27,960 Speaker 1: one that shocked me the most was my alma mater, 473 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 1: and it shocked me in a great way obviously. But um, 474 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 1: you know, that weekend, I was hearing a lot of 475 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 1: chatter about potentially Matt Campbell, and I was getting ready, 476 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:40,120 Speaker 1: you know, kind of just to all right, get on board. 477 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:43,640 Speaker 1: He's a really good football coach. Be happy with him. Um, 478 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 1: But then I get a text, um on Sunday from 479 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 1: from my buddy Bruce Feltman, who I know you know 480 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:52,359 Speaker 1: well and um, he says Lincoln Riley, And I said, 481 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 1: holy hell, are you kidding? And I had, I had, 482 00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 1: I had talked to a few people prior the week's 483 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,400 Speaker 1: up to saying that he would he the only job 484 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 1: that he would potentially take was USC. But I was like, 485 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 1: there's no way, I mean, you know, and then all 486 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 1: of a sudden happened and I couldn't be I mean, gosh, Dan, 487 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:16,160 Speaker 1: it's it's that's what SC needs. They needed that splash, 488 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 1: They needed someone who can change the culture there. Can 489 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 1: you know, It's just it's just it's a home run 490 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 1: higher in every sense of the word. Um, USC is 491 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 1: relevant immediately. Um, he's already flipping a ton of recruits. 492 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 1: I was just looking at some of these recruits this morning. 493 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,760 Speaker 1: He's already he's already getting some guys that were interested 494 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:35,879 Speaker 1: in Ohio State now they want to go to USC. 495 00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 1: Like he's he's hitting the ground running. And I couldn't 496 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:40,920 Speaker 1: be more happy, you know, to be a troach and 497 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 1: that he's the next coach head coach there. It's never 498 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 1: done in a delicate way. It's hard to do that. 499 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: It feels like there's there's outrage nationally that Brian Kelly 500 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 1: left Notre Dame. There's not outrage for Lincoln Riley leaving Oklahoma, 501 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 1: but because Notre Dame's polarizing, is there a tactful way 502 00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: for a coach to leave if you were a player 503 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 1: and you played for Notre Dame and Brian Kelly comes 504 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:08,479 Speaker 1: back from a recruiting trip and says, guys, gathered, seven am, 505 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: I'm taking the LSU job. How would you feel? Yeah, 506 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's it's it's hard because the one 507 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: thing with Notre Dame is, I mean they're still they're 508 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 1: still a very realistic path they get into the playoff. 509 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 1: I mean, can you imagine they get into the playoff 510 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: and the narrative around that without Brian Kelly. I mean, 511 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 1: it's so so that's the weird thing about that. It's 512 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:35,240 Speaker 1: just like, these players are right there in a position 513 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 1: either going to a New Year's sixth Bowl or a 514 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 1: realistic shot. Not a lot has to happen for them 515 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:43,080 Speaker 1: to sneak into the top four. And then all of 516 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 1: a sudden, your coaches is taking a job, and three 517 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 1: hours later he's saying by in two minutes and he's out. 518 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:52,440 Speaker 1: And then obviously, you know the story out there of 519 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 1: going out recruiting, and then that that news kind of 520 00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 1: breaking right after that, and his whole staff is out recruiting. So, 521 00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 1: m is there a tactful way? You know, I'm sure 522 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 1: he could have probably handled it a little bit better. 523 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,800 Speaker 1: But in this day and age, with the you know, 524 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 1: the early signing period and the amount of money that 525 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 1: has just been I mean it's one hundred million dollars, 526 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 1: and you look at you, you look at excuse me, LSU. 527 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 1: And and I by the way, Brian Kelly is a 528 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:22,280 Speaker 1: is a damn good football coach. He's one of the 529 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 1: best in the business. Um, But you look at the position, 530 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 1: you know, the situation LSU, the way they can recruit there, Um, 531 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 1: they want a title just a couple of years ago, 532 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 1: and then you dangle out, you dangle out nine figures 533 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 1: or whatever it is, ten figure, whatever it is, nine figures, 534 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: and it's hard to pass up. So yeah, look, I 535 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 1: think it's part of the business. It's it's unfortunate, and 536 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:47,120 Speaker 1: it's the way I mean Lincoln, you know, Lincoln, their 537 00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 1: season was done. They did it right after but even 538 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 1: that happened within within hours, you know, and all of 539 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 1: a sudden, these players are like, hey, what about me, 540 00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 1: Like what happened here? So do you think Brian Kelly 541 00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 1: would have left if Notre Dame was ranked third? Uh? Yeah, Okay, 542 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:08,480 Speaker 1: I do, Yeah, I do. I think I think he 543 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:12,360 Speaker 1: saw the money. Um, I think he you know, obviously 544 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 1: from from talking to a few people and just reading 545 00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 1: the stories out there. Obviously there's some things that you know, 546 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 1: maybe he wanted there that didn't happen over time. Um. 547 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 1: But then again, you know, he did hit the ceiling there. 548 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 1: I mean he did. He got them to the playoffs 549 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 1: multiple times. It's just there's a gap between Notre Dame 550 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:31,840 Speaker 1: and Alabama's and Ohio States and Clemsons of the world, 551 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 1: and you know, he just I think he took them 552 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 1: as far as he could possibly take them. And then 553 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 1: you look at a job like LSU with the talent 554 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 1: that's available, even the talent on that roster, I mean, 555 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 1: it's still a very talented roster. Um you know, there's 556 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 1: an opportunity for him to win a national championship there. 557 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 1: But yeah, it's look, it's it's kind of the way 558 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 1: this the whole college football is set up with you know, 559 00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 1: the early signing period in these these coaches jumping. I mean, 560 00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley was introduced Monday, which I was at the 561 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 1: press conference that night. He's out recruiting already down in 562 00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:08,680 Speaker 1: Orange County and t other cuff. I mean, that's how 563 00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 1: fast this is happening. There's no time to look in 564 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 1: the mirror. So but unfortunately that as you said, you know, 565 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:16,120 Speaker 1: the players are the one that that suffered from that. 566 00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 1: Did Notre Dame recruit you. They did not. They did 567 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 1: not recruit me, I think at the time. So at 568 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 1: the time they were it was Ty Willingham, they were. 569 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 1: They had a lot more of the you know, they 570 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:34,680 Speaker 1: had quarterbacks that can move, and that's not me. I 571 00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:38,720 Speaker 1: think they had a Carlisle Holiday. I remember if Carlisle 572 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 1: Holliday was a good player for them. Actually my teammate 573 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 1: in Arizona. He ended up playing receiver for US in 574 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:46,760 Speaker 1: the league. But um, I don't think I was a 575 00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 1: good enough athlete for them at the time. Mclovin said, 576 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,320 Speaker 1: you didn't have the academics to get in mad and 577 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 1: that's probably true as well. Listen, I was. I was 578 00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:00,400 Speaker 1: a social major at USC and I took ballroom dancing 579 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:04,440 Speaker 1: my last year, so I remember people, people gave you 580 00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 1: so much grief for that. I remember having you on 581 00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:10,760 Speaker 1: talking to you about that. But here's the thing people 582 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:13,480 Speaker 1: need to realize. I'd already graduated. I just had to. 583 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 1: I had to take two units just to be eligible 584 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 1: for my senior year. So how about this my whole 585 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:22,760 Speaker 1: senior year, which was just incredible. And again I came 586 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 1: back because I wanted to be at USC and all 587 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 1: of those things. I took two units because I had 588 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 1: already graduated. So people are up and over. I'm like, 589 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 1: as either that or an art class. I'm like, all right, 590 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 1: I'll take ballroom dancing. This could be fun. It was 591 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 1: Tuesday nights once a week during the fall, so my 592 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 1: schedule was just all football one night a week. Actually, 593 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 1: you know who I took that class with. Mark Sanchez 594 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 1: was in that class and no one and Mark Sanchez 595 00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 1: was a true freshman, so he took it I think 596 00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:54,719 Speaker 1: as an elective or whatever at the time, and nobody 597 00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 1: rapped Mark Sanchez for taking ballroom dancing. Yeah, no, man, 598 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 1: it's all right. I had I think I got an 599 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:03,280 Speaker 1: a minus in the class too, So you know, and 600 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:08,840 Speaker 1: you probably good place to meet women. Uh yeah, you know, 601 00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:11,080 Speaker 1: I don't remember. To be honest with you, I'm not sure. 602 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:13,520 Speaker 1: I'm not sure. I don't even know how many people 603 00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:17,440 Speaker 1: were in that class. But um yeah, I mean listen, 604 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:19,800 Speaker 1: I didn't take a lot of that with me post USC. 605 00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 1: You know, I couldn't do the two step right now 606 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:25,400 Speaker 1: at the box step. But if you ask me before 607 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 1: I say goodbye, how does Iowa beat Michigan in this 608 00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 1: game this Saturday night on Fox? Yeah? Look, this is uh, 609 00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:35,879 Speaker 1: this is you know, it's not a trap game. I mean, 610 00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 1: this is a conference championship game. I was a really 611 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 1: good football team. But one of the interesting things the 612 00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 1: way i was built in the way they've won this 613 00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:46,680 Speaker 1: year is takeaways on defense. And again that's a that's 614 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:49,319 Speaker 1: a very common thing. You know, Hey, if you get 615 00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:51,320 Speaker 1: turnovers all that, you're gonna win a lot of games. 616 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:54,640 Speaker 1: But the way it is for them is thirty thirty 617 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:58,200 Speaker 1: percent of Iowa's scoring has come off a takeaways. Iowa, 618 00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 1: and I'm sure you know this is just not built 619 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:02,680 Speaker 1: to go eighty ninety yard drives. It's not the type 620 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,799 Speaker 1: of offense they have. They have fed off of their 621 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:09,319 Speaker 1: defense being outstanding at creating turnovers because it gives them 622 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 1: short fields, and that's how they've operated and that's how 623 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,520 Speaker 1: they won a lot of games. The two losses this year, 624 00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:19,000 Speaker 1: they had one takeaway. So if Michigan just protects a ball, 625 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,680 Speaker 1: which they've done all season long, it's going to be 626 00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 1: very challenging for Iowa to just drive and score of points. 627 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:28,160 Speaker 1: That's just not how they're built. So that's just something 628 00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:30,840 Speaker 1: to keep an eye on in this game. Is when 629 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 1: Iowa is opportunistic on defense, which they are very good defense. Otherwise, 630 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:37,399 Speaker 1: then they're gonna have a shot to win this game. 631 00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:42,080 Speaker 1: But look, they I think Michigan is. Michigan is legit. 632 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:45,799 Speaker 1: They're very very good. They have their identity. They got 633 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,439 Speaker 1: those bad boys up front on defense. Hutchinson a job 634 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:51,759 Speaker 1: of who are very good players, first round guys. Haskins 635 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:54,160 Speaker 1: is a study. It's gonna be tough for Iowa, but 636 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:56,920 Speaker 1: you never Kurt Ferens and the job he does and 637 00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 1: that team, you can just never count those guys out. 638 00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:01,839 Speaker 1: So it'll be it could be a low scoring fifth fight, 639 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:04,839 Speaker 1: but it'll be a good game. Safe travels, Matt. Great 640 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:07,799 Speaker 1: to have you on again and thanks for joining us.

A lot of reaction to Brian 669 00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:49,200 Speaker 1: Kelly on the show Last Hour. And I did offer 670 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:52,719 Speaker 1: up this question that had to do with Notre Dame. 671 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:55,320 Speaker 1: If Notre Dame happened to be one of the top 672 00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:58,880 Speaker 1: four teams, what do you have left? If you were 673 00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:06,440 Speaker 1: ranked third right now? Coach? Would you still be in Louisiana? Oh? 674 00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:09,200 Speaker 1: I don't know, Dan, You know, those those are those 675 00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:12,840 Speaker 1: are tough questions, you know. I mean, I'm I'm pretty 676 00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:16,600 Speaker 1: honest guy, and and would would tell you, but those 677 00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:20,120 Speaker 1: those are so hard to, you know, to answer relative 678 00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:24,520 Speaker 1: to what I had done something different in that situation. 679 00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 1: And I really couldn't tell you, to be honest with you, um, 680 00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:32,719 Speaker 1: because it's not the case. Um. But but I really 681 00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:35,480 Speaker 1: couldn't answer that question Okay, I'm going to say something 682 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:39,920 Speaker 1: it might sound controversial. Is there part of Brian Kelly 683 00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:43,759 Speaker 1: who secretly is happy that Notre Dame is not one 684 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:47,839 Speaker 1: of the top four teams in the country because that 685 00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:53,200 Speaker 1: would be really tough to leave because Luke Fickle Notre 686 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:56,719 Speaker 1: Dame maybe waiting for Luke Fickle to coach Cincinnati in 687 00:38:56,719 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 1: the Final four. If Cincinnati is ranked eighth, is Luke 688 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:06,440 Speaker 1: Fickle staying I don't know, Probably a little bit easier 689 00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:08,960 Speaker 1: decision if he's the guy that they're going to hire. 690 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:15,240 Speaker 1: But here's Notre Dame sixth. It's a little easier to say, yeah, 691 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:18,600 Speaker 1: you know what, we're not going to make the playoffs, 692 00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:21,280 Speaker 1: but we had a really good year, double digit wins again, 693 00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:26,120 Speaker 1: and maybe privately it's like it's a little easier to 694 00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 1: leave when you're sick as opposed to when you're third. 695 00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 1: We've said this before, but how big would the Cincinnati 696 00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:35,680 Speaker 1: win against Notre Dame if it changed college football landscape? 697 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:40,040 Speaker 1: Of college football? Yes? Yes, because Cincinnati is now in 698 00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:44,120 Speaker 1: the Final four. Notre Dame loses to Cincinnati, and because 699 00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:46,600 Speaker 1: they lost to Cincinnati, they're not in the Final four 700 00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:49,719 Speaker 1: because they would be probably second or third in the 701 00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 1: country right now, and then maybe Brian Kelly doesn't take 702 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:58,560 Speaker 1: the lsu joh like just crazy crazy how that works. 703 00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:01,680 Speaker 1: And then Luke Fickle may going someplace, Elden maybe stays 704 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:06,600 Speaker 1: at Cincinnati. Crazy Chris and Oklahoma, Hi Chris, what's on 705 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:10,439 Speaker 1: your mind today? Hey Dan? First time a long time, 706 00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 1: five ten, one eighty five. Then I'm a nineteen ninety 707 00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:19,000 Speaker 1: four OU grad and which means I had to live 708 00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:22,600 Speaker 1: through the Gary Gibbs years, and I'm afraid that we 709 00:40:22,640 --> 00:40:26,879 Speaker 1: are headed there again. And here's why. We've already lost 710 00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:29,680 Speaker 1: Spencer Rattler, which we knew was coming. I'll be shocked 711 00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:33,120 Speaker 1: if we don't lose Caleb Williamson. And we've already lost 712 00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:36,839 Speaker 1: Caleb's replacement in the twenty twenty three class. So that's 713 00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 1: at least five years, maybe ten. So with my heart, 714 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,759 Speaker 1: I am angry about this move because of all that. 715 00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:47,279 Speaker 1: With my head, I think I get it, with the 716 00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:51,000 Speaker 1: SEC looming, the situation at SEC in the PAC twelve 717 00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:54,239 Speaker 1: and all that, I get it, but it's kind of 718 00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:58,120 Speaker 1: hard to take, especially coming off losing Oklahoma State, which 719 00:40:58,120 --> 00:40:59,799 Speaker 1: my brother went to Oklahoma State, so I have to 720 00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:02,680 Speaker 1: deal with that. Talk around here is the leader in 721 00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:06,200 Speaker 1: the clubhouse is Brent Venables. Yeah, i'd take that. I'd 722 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:09,360 Speaker 1: take that. Um, thanks for taking my call, Dan, and 723 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:12,839 Speaker 1: suck it back row Chris. Chris, Chris having a bad week, 724 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:17,439 Speaker 1: but I wanted to make sure he got that in priorities. Yeah, 725 00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:20,879 Speaker 1: I love that. Yeah, I lost our coach. I don't 726 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:23,399 Speaker 1: know who we're gonna get lost Oklahoma State. My brother 727 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 1: went to Oklahoma State, and all right, we'll have a 728 00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:30,359 Speaker 1: good day. Sucker back row the best. We didn't hire 729 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:35,239 Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley. I know, I know. Sometimes you have to 730 00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:37,080 Speaker 1: have nothing to do with it and you're a punching bag, 731 00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:39,680 Speaker 1: and he feels a little bit better. So I called Yeah, no, 732 00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:44,080 Speaker 1: it was called for. Yes, it was Chris and South Carolina. 733 00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:47,520 Speaker 1: Hi Chris, what's on your mind?
