No, 30 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 1: I'm completely joking every time. It's not ral ralph fault. 31 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 1: It's my fault a lot of the times too. But 32 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 1: we will continue the consistency and all these things because 33 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 1: I know that you guys UM enjoy and we enjoy 34 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:25,360 Speaker 1: it as well. So Ralph took a trip and he 35 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: got a chance to visit some college campuses and in 36 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,800 Speaker 1: it just matters more territory. So what was so you 37 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 1: can tell the people about your trip, Ralph. Yeah, so 38 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: I got to see uh an a CEC school, uh 39 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 1: SEC school, and uh Sun Belt I think Appalachian States 40 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: in the in the sun Belt. Even though I'm not 41 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,959 Speaker 1: sure that's an appropriate name for a conference up in 42 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:58,079 Speaker 1: the mountains um of North Carolina. But I really enjoyed 43 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,239 Speaker 1: getting out and getting to see a few more schools 44 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 1: and a few more campuses. Clemson was a really really 45 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 1: interesting one because there's more people at the school than 46 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,919 Speaker 1: there are actual residents of the town, and we I 47 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: don't think we really have that type of a setup 48 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:17,240 Speaker 1: anywhere in the Pact twelve at all um and so 49 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 1: that was very interesting to me to see um what 50 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,519 Speaker 1: was quintessentially a college town, because every town with a 51 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: major college and it is a college town, but this 52 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,799 Speaker 1: is the actual engine of the town. If the college 53 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: wasn't there, there wouldn't be a town. So Clemson was 54 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 1: really interesting. The probably the funniest thing about going to 55 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 1: Clemson is we had the GPS on as we're driving 56 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 1: up to the stadium and it's like turn left on 57 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: Champions Way, take a right on uh, like blowout lane, 58 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 1: like everything was everything was a reference to how much 59 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: success they've had, Like make a U turn it we 60 00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,120 Speaker 1: dominate circle. And I was just so, I was so 61 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: all these are like new streets basically, Yeah, I guess, 62 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 1: I guess I guess um and then you know, I 63 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: was thinking, uh, it just it wouldn't there wouldn't be 64 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: that type of thing. I think at most packed twelve schools. 65 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 1: So it was you know, uh, being out in Corvallis 66 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 1: when it's like hanging left on hopefully we get four 67 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:27,799 Speaker 1: wins this year Boulevard. There's definitely a different vibe. Athens 68 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 1: was kind of cool. Athens. Uh. I went to University 69 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:32,600 Speaker 1: of Georgia, and that was kind of cool because it's 70 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,280 Speaker 1: kind of a fully functioning town. Outside of the university. 71 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 1: They got about a hundred and fifteen thousand people, and 72 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:41,679 Speaker 1: I learned that the population boom really happened there between 73 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,159 Speaker 1: nine and two thousands, Like when the Internet first became 74 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: a thing, they doubled in size. They went from about 75 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: fifty a hundred thousand, and now they're up close to 76 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 1: around hundred twenty thousand, and that's without the thirty tho 77 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: kids that actually attend University of Georgia. The field was 78 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: open for us to just go and walk around the stadium, 79 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 1: which I don't think that you could do that at USC, 80 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: not in that neighborhood. Like I just I don't think 81 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 1: that you, uh that you could do that, and so, um, 82 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: I know you can't do it at University of Arizona 83 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 1: because I'm pretty sure some of it didn't. Some of 84 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 1: their players get arrested in the stadium because they like 85 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 1: jumped to fence and we're just chilling in the seats. See, 86 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: that's the difference between where you went and I mean, 87 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:32,119 Speaker 1: well some some pack twelve schools used to be open. 88 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: Because I remember a girl who's I doubt she listens 89 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 1: to this podcast, but if she does, she will know 90 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:42,279 Speaker 1: exactly who I'm talking about. Went to University of Oregon. 91 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,600 Speaker 1: Her goal was to have sex at in at the 92 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 1: fifty yard line at every stadium, and when I was 93 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 1: in college, she says she had already been like to 94 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 1: have snacks, sex s e x, so she has a 95 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,719 Speaker 1: very different on the fifty yard line. I'd love to 96 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 1: have snacks on the fifty line of every stadium, dude. 97 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:07,480 Speaker 1: And she had already done like six or eight uh 98 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: programs already. I'm six or eight stadiums in the back 99 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 1: twelve already. I didn't get into the details, so I 100 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 1: don't know if this was, you know, with I know 101 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 1: she didn't have a boyfriend, so I don't know if 102 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 1: it was like one person or whether she just found 103 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:26,360 Speaker 1: a random roady in each city. But I don't know. Yeah, 104 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 1: this is a this is interesting. I don't really know 105 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: how to respond, but I will say, who say, you 106 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 1: get dud for you to be a person who talks 107 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 1: about so openly and freely and are unapologetic, you are 108 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 1: you blushed really easy? Like there are some things where 109 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: you're like I can't say that. Yeah, for sure, No, 110 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:49,799 Speaker 1: I'm I'm not. I wouldn't say like I'm a prude, 111 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 1: but like definitely raised by like extremely Catholic grandparents who, um, 112 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 1: you know, I learned about things way too late and 113 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: a lot of things super private. Um, but I will say, like, 114 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 1: I guess kudos to her and um who said that 115 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 1: there weren't passionate football fans on the left work she 116 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 1: grew up in a in a nudist colony though not 117 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: see that's that, and and as a University of Oregon 118 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: uh student, Um that makes sense for sure. Uh yeah, 119 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 1: but I thought saw three colleges it was nice. Oh, 120 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: I actually toured Queen's College as well, but they don't 121 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: have football, so I didn't, you know, go look at 122 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 1: any stadiums or anything like that. But that's like a 123 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: thirty students school in the heart of Charlotte, So that 124 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 1: was kind of an interesting vibe as well. UM, definitely 125 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: different than what I'm used to out here. I've actually, 126 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 1: I don't know if we've ever said this on the 127 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: podcast before. I've toured ten of the twelve pack twelve campuses. 128 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 1: I've actually never been to Berkeley, And while I have 129 00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 1: been to UM uh Washington State, I have not actually 130 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 1: like spent time at the school of the stadium or anything. 131 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: So I'm only ten for twelve on on in in 132 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 1: our territory. UM, I have never been to the University 133 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 1: of Washington never. How about that? What? How? What do 134 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: you mean? How you played at Oregon and you've helped 135 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 1: with like broadcast stuff, and Seattle is a major American city. 136 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 1: It's just it's surprised I've been to I've been to Seattle. 137 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 1: I played, I've played in the stadium that the Seahawks 138 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 1: play in as a I don't know if I played 139 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 1: as a I don't remember whether I played as a professional, 140 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: but I definitely did as a college guy. When we 141 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 1: played in the we played in a bowl game, we 142 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: played in the short lived Seattle Bowl. We we played 143 00:08:55,920 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 1: against Wake Forest Um and so I never as a 144 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 1: pactrol player. So so you have to remember I read 145 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: shirted a year as well, and I also played. I 146 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 1: read shirted, so you don't travel when you read shirt. 147 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 1: And I went to the NFL Draft, so I didn't 148 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,559 Speaker 1: have a senior year, so I was really only traveling 149 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: for three years I did not and and but since then, 150 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 1: I've been to colleges and all that stuff. But I 151 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: have never even stepped foot on the University of Washington 152 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 1: campus or in their stadium. First thing I have not. 153 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:40,720 Speaker 1: I did not play. I don't think I played at 154 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 1: Stanford either. Yeah. Yeah, I did not play at Stanford either. Interesting, so, 155 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 1: uh but I played. But I played at Washington State 156 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 1: three times as an Oregon man. Uh is that? Do 157 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 1: you just up turning that around and making it a 158 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:06,559 Speaker 1: point of pride not ever setting foot on on Washington's campus? 159 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 1: No way, dude, Absolutely, no, dude. I would I wish 160 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,080 Speaker 1: that I got a chance to play in in Husky 161 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: Stadium because I've always been I'm a negatively motivated kind 162 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,200 Speaker 1: of person. So if you tell me I can't do 163 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 1: something that makes me want to do it, even more 164 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,960 Speaker 1: so fans booing oh God, that's way better than fans 165 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 1: fans cheering for for me. So I would have wanted 166 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 1: to play in that sort of hostile environment like the 167 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,960 Speaker 1: uh that that's why the Oregon Washington game was such 168 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: a big It's such a big deal and like the 169 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 1: environment that two years ago that the Oregon went up 170 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 1: to Husky Stadium. And one, dude, I as much as 171 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 1: I don't like Washington, right, I appreciate how much their 172 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 1: fans care. And that's the type of environment that you 173 00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 1: never forget playing. So I applaud their fans like their 174 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: fans are, their fans are legit, and we need more 175 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:11,679 Speaker 1: fans honestly in the Pact twelve like Washington fans, like 176 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 1: Oregon fans um like like you know when when Arizona 177 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 1: used to be rocking their fans, like people who are 178 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:26,840 Speaker 1: absolutely committed Washington. Washington State fans are pretty good as well. 179 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: But we need that from the l A schools because 180 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 1: I've season tickets to u C. L A. And dude, 181 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 1: that I mean aside from the fourth quarter and it's 182 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,440 Speaker 1: a close game, like the stadium is largely quiet as 183 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:49,200 Speaker 1: a church mouse, and you need that energy. It's just different. Okay. Um, So, 184 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: as an aside that I can find, at least in 185 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: the regular season, you did not ever play an away 186 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: game in Seattle in your pro career. You did the Seahawks, 187 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:09,199 Speaker 1: but it was in Jackson. Yeah. Yeah, here's another one 188 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,199 Speaker 1: since since there was another stadium that I did not 189 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 1: mention that I actually got to visit on my my 190 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 1: little road trip last week. Do you remember the first 191 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: stadium that you ever played your first regulation, regular season 192 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:30,439 Speaker 1: game in college football pro as a rookie pro as 193 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 1: I think Tampa Bay it was Carolina. Oh wait, hold on, 194 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 1: hold on, hold on? Oh you said regular season? Yeah? 195 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 1: Oh all right, dude. I will never forget that Carolina 196 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 1: game because that Carolina game came down to the last 197 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:50,719 Speaker 1: kick of the game. I was on the field goal 198 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 1: team and it got blocked off of my side and 199 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 1: we lost the game. It was like a fifty Summit. Yeah, 200 00:12:56,520 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 1: it was a super long field goal. I'll never forget that. Okay, Okay, 201 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 1: can you remember, uh? Do you do you remember the 202 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:09,320 Speaker 1: really unique thing about how that game ended besides that 203 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 1: field goal? Uh? No, okay, all right, I'm gonna give you. 204 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:17,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you a little bit of trivia. So 205 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 1: there were three consecutive missed two point conversions to end 206 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 1: the game. Wait what yes, Yes, So you guys were 207 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 1: up in the fourth quarter seventeen to ten after John 208 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 1: Casey hit a field goal um and then Carolina got 209 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 1: a safety and then scored a touchdown uh Steve Smith 210 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: from Jake Dilome. They tried to throw for the two 211 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: point conversion because they were up eighteen seventeen, didn't get it. 212 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 1: Then you guys went down the field and Jermaine Lewis 213 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 1: caught a sixty five yard touchdown pass from Mark Burnell 214 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 1: and tried to go for the two point conversion, and 215 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: you didn't get it. So you're leading twenty three to eighteen, 216 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 1: and the Panthers come down and score with sixteen seconds 217 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:05,560 Speaker 1: left Ricky Prole from Jake Delone. They go up and 218 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: try to go for two and don't get it. So 219 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 1: that fourth quarter had three failed two point conversions, a safety, 220 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 1: a field goal, and a block field goal. That was 221 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 1: your first, your first NFL game. It was seventeen to 222 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 1: seven going into the fourth and ended. Okay here here, 223 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: I know you're gonna laugh and everybody else is gonna laugh. 224 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: At this you just told me new information. I Ralph, 225 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: every single thing that you mentioned, aside from that field goal, 226 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 1: I have no I if I saw it, if that 227 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 1: game came on television, it would be like I watched 228 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 1: it for the first time. I have zero. When I 229 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 1: say zero, I mean not one single iota of a 230 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 1: memory about that game now, one aside from knowing and 231 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 1: I can't even remember the actual play. I just know 232 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 1: I missed them. I know that me and the tight 233 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 1: end in the field goal protection because I was on 234 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 1: the wing that blocked some kind of way between me 235 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: and him. It got missed, and um, they blocked the 236 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: field goal. So that's the only thing that I like, 237 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 1: I don't I don't even know what. I think we 238 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 1: were wearing white jerseys, but I don't even know. Like, 239 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 1: isn't that strange in the strange? But yeah, so that 240 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 1: that I did get to see Bank of America Stadium 241 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 1: and uh in in in Charlotte, which was really really nice. 242 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 1: Uh And and you don't even remember being there. And 243 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 1: here's a little bit of trivia. Do you remember, Because 244 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 1: I've told you this story a few times. I actually 245 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: saw you play way before we ever met. I was 246 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 1: at a game you were there. Do you remember the 247 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 1: major event that happened in the game that you played 248 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 1: in that I was at um That was in in 249 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 1: Arizona Stadium. Well, actually, yeah, in Sun Devil Stadium, And 250 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 1: uh I think it has something to do with Todd Heat, right. No, 251 00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 1: I don't think no, no, no, no, no, I'm I'm 252 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 1: thinking about my college game when Todd Heat caught the 253 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 1: ball against his helmet um, which was unbelievable. Wait, or 254 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 1: was did I watch that on TV? Or was that 255 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 1: the game? Remember Jello brain? So? Okay, okay, So, so 256 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 1: here's what I remember from that day. Okay, okay. Has 257 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: I don't even remember whether we won or lost the game. Uh, 258 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 1: I do remember that. I think Byron left which was 259 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: the quarterback in that game. It was the quarterback in 260 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 1: that game. And yeah, I don't remember where they got 261 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 1: something something happened. I remember something happening in the game, 262 00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 1: but I don't remember what. But I do remember is 263 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 1: that my son's mom was at that game. She was 264 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 1: pregnant with my son at the time, my my my 265 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 1: oldest son, and we we had been together, but I 266 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 1: hadn't seen her in a while because it was during 267 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:15,800 Speaker 1: the season and then um, but we weren't together at 268 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 1: the top and so but I saw her after the game, 269 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:24,880 Speaker 1: like that's the only thing I remember about that particular event. 270 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:28,399 Speaker 1: But go go, go ahead, informed me about my my 271 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 1: life's events. Ro Byron Leftwich broke his ankle in the 272 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:34,960 Speaker 1: first quarter. Yes see, I knew he got hurt. I knew. 273 00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:37,400 Speaker 1: See I was like, I was like, he started the game, 274 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:39,399 Speaker 1: but he didn't finish the game. I knew that that 275 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 1: was the beginning of the David Gerrard era. See I 276 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 1: knew something happened in that game. Well, I mean something 277 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 1: for sure, did we did? Wee? Uh? And that was Um. 278 00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 1: It was sort of a weird pivotal moment for the 279 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:03,719 Speaker 1: Ardinals as well, because you were playing against Larry Fitzgerald 280 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:08,679 Speaker 1: in his rookie season, and um, the Cardinals had Kurt 281 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 1: Warner at quarterback, but they weren't really like, they weren't 282 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,640 Speaker 1: really committed to him. They had just gotten him from 283 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,439 Speaker 1: the Giants. He went too and eight that year, and 284 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure that's what led them to draft Matt Leiner, 285 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 1: who he sat behind um the following year and then 286 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: went back and forth within two thousand seven, and it 287 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,640 Speaker 1: wasn't until two thousand eight. It wasn't until Kurt Warner's 288 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:36,640 Speaker 1: fourth year in Arizona where he really um, they said 289 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: this is your team, and he went out and played 290 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 1: all six team games and took him to the super Bowl. 291 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:45,840 Speaker 1: But that was early in the Kurt Warner Arizona Cardinals experiment. 292 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 1: Byron left which broke his ankle and you guys ended 293 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 1: up winning the game. Um, but that I mean, that's 294 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 1: probably the first time you ever played against Larry Fitzgerald. Yeah, dude, 295 00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 1: who we could do a podcast just on you recap 296 00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,919 Speaker 1: think things in my in my life. You know what 297 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:06,000 Speaker 1: it's funny too, is that there are sometimes where you know, 298 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 1: they'll have some of the ESPN Instant Classic games and 299 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:13,919 Speaker 1: from from my years at Oregon, and sometimes I watched 300 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: those games and it's like the first time I saw that, 301 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 1: that's hilarious. I talked to Ricardo Stewart, who was all 302 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 1: packed ten safety for Arizona State, and he always talks 303 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 1: about the triple overtign game against Oregon UM that had 304 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,440 Speaker 1: Terrell Suggs Andrew Walter and all that. He says, every 305 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 1: time that game comes on, he watches it like he 306 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,680 Speaker 1: like he doesn't remember being in it, Like he's standing 307 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 1: there next to his couch, like cheering for a s 308 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 1: U even though he's on the field. Dude, I know 309 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 1: people at all people listening can't relate, but it happens 310 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 1: all the time. It would be like me going back 311 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: and listening to one of our old podcasts and like 312 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 1: clapping for myself when I make a decent, coherent point. 313 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 1: And the funny part is that there are sometimes I 314 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 1: don't know what the outcome is, like where I watched 315 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:11,639 Speaker 1: him like did we want to lose this game? And 316 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 1: I'm watching it and I'm like, oh my god, we 317 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: we wanted to? Oh no, that was terrible. But there 318 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 1: are some games that that stick out, like Stanford in 319 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 1: two thousands with the where we lost a fourteen point 320 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:27,680 Speaker 1: lead in like five minutes and missed out on a 321 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,120 Speaker 1: chance to play for the national Championship. I remember that. 322 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:34,320 Speaker 1: I remember Reggie Williams going crazy on US. I remember 323 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 1: was that Andrew Walter there through for like eight thousand 324 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 1: yards and one game against US. I feel that probably yeah, yeah, 325 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:51,440 Speaker 1: And I remember the game we played at USC. I 326 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 1: remember playing it U c l A. Like I remember 327 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 1: all those games. I remember when Nate Viegas towards a C.

You guys go 344 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 1: check that out as well. But you said something we 345 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: were talking about your trip the other day, and I 346 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 1: found it very interesting you when you said you were 347 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:08,200 Speaker 1: surprised that all the stadiums that you went to were open. Yes, yes, Um, 348 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:12,359 Speaker 1: that you know, we that a University of Georgia. Um, 349 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 1: you were able to just walk Uh, there's a road 350 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:18,199 Speaker 1: that runs right next to the stadium where you can 351 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 1: look down in and the gates were just open. So 352 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 1: we're able to walk in and go in where like 353 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:23,919 Speaker 1: the seeds are. You can even walk down to the 354 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 1: field if you want to. And I remember my wife 355 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:28,679 Speaker 1: was like, I can't believe it's just open, And I 356 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 1: was like, would you close the doors of the church, 357 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:33,880 Speaker 1: like this is this is the house of worship here 358 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,640 Speaker 1: in in Athens. It makes sense to me that it's open. 359 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 1: But that is You're right, that's just not something that 360 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 1: I've experienced out here. Um in the Pact twelve of 361 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,639 Speaker 1: where this you know that where you would just trust 362 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 1: the people to not come in and mess around or 363 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 1: or do anything they're not supposed to. Um. And who knows, 364 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: maybe it was a fluke and maybe they just forgot 365 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 1: to lock the gates or whatever, but no one seemed 366 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,360 Speaker 1: to have an issue with us. Nobody forgot to lock 367 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,920 Speaker 1: the gates. Bro, No, you forgot to like the gates, dud. 368 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 1: That's a fire able offense that that didn't happen. Yeah, 369 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 1: I don't know. I I will say that there was definitely, Um, 370 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 1: it's an education for me because I'm not I'm not 371 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:18,920 Speaker 1: very well traveled from Wyoming. I live in Arizona. Anytime 372 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 1: I have a chance to go on vacation, I go 373 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 1: back to where I'm from. So like I've maybe been 374 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,399 Speaker 1: to Atlanta three times in my life, I've been to 375 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,680 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh once, in Baltimore once. That's the entire extent of 376 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:33,400 Speaker 1: being thirty six years old. And I didn't even cross 377 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:37,120 Speaker 1: the Mississippi until like two thousand nine for the first time. 378 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:39,880 Speaker 1: And and so I don't know much, Like I haven't 379 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,200 Speaker 1: seen all that much. I've been everywhere on the West 380 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:44,679 Speaker 1: Coast a million different times. I love to drive and 381 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 1: travel and road trip and been to every stadium like 382 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,639 Speaker 1: I said, except for the two in the back twelve, 383 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,120 Speaker 1: and have been to a bunch of the Big sky 384 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 1: Um and Mountain West stadiums as well. And uh, it's 385 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 1: just very different for me to see something, you know, 386 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 1: next to buildings that are two, d and fifty years old, 387 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 1: when the oldest thing in Arizona is like a twelve 388 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: year old Walgreens down the street, right, Like that's a 389 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:09,119 Speaker 1: historical building down here, because we just spread out and 390 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 1: build out UM constantly, and there things are really concentrated 391 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,119 Speaker 1: and have a lot of history with them, and I 392 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 1: it just it is a completely different world. And I 393 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 1: do understand that you know Georgia football when it be 394 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 1: ingrained into eight generations of people, and I would love 395 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:30,159 Speaker 1: for UM people in the Pac twelve footprint to be 396 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:33,639 Speaker 1: able to have that level of pride as well. But 397 00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 1: the reason I feel like people live on the West 398 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 1: Coast is because they're they don't they They're not people 399 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 1: who really settle or focus their multitaskers. And so that 400 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 1: we have that sort of multitasking fandom, it doesn't mean 401 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 1: that you don't go out of your way to make 402 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:51,199 Speaker 1: it easy to watch these games. We were staying with 403 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 1: somebody out there who grew up going to Arizona State 404 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:57,199 Speaker 1: games season tickets ever since they were a baby. They 405 00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 1: didn't even tend a SUE. They went to Pepperdine, but 406 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 1: they still had a s U c and tickets. Their 407 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:04,560 Speaker 1: parents still have a SU season tickets and UM. She 408 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 1: has converted to becoming a Clemson fan because they tailgate, 409 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 1: because there's culture around it, and because that never that 410 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 1: was never part of her experience going to Arizona State 411 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 1: games growing up, and the hardest thing for her to 412 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 1: do to keep up with a SU games is that 413 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,200 Speaker 1: she can't watch them from her house and they don't 414 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,919 Speaker 1: come on until after all of the small town bars 415 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 1: are closed out there. And so, you know, she just 416 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 1: talked about all of her headaches of just trying to 417 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:33,160 Speaker 1: keep up with a s U football. You know, ended 418 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,880 Speaker 1: up having to listen to radio broadcasts of it or 419 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:39,880 Speaker 1: illegal streams or or whatever, um, you know, when they're 420 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:42,400 Speaker 1: kicking off at eleven forty five at night her time. 421 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:47,440 Speaker 1: And yeah, and and that's part of the issue with 422 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:50,280 Speaker 1: the Pack twelve, you know, because we've talked about kickoff 423 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:55,240 Speaker 1: times availability, because people convert to other fans when they 424 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 1: can't watch their team. I mean, you can be And 425 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:00,200 Speaker 1: one of the guys that played on my high schol 426 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 1: basketball team, my high school basketball team here in California, 427 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 1: San Fernando Valley, is a diehard Alabama fan, diehard Alabama fan. 428 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:16,159 Speaker 1: His families from Tuscaloosa, like you know, grandparents or from 429 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 1: from Tuscaloosa. The reason why he could stay in Alabama 430 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 1: fans because his games are always available. He doesn't have 431 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 1: a problem watching Alabama if it were the other way around, 432 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:31,440 Speaker 1: if he were a die hard you know, Arizona fan, 433 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:37,280 Speaker 1: grew up in uh Tucsons, went to all the games, everything, 434 00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 1: and then he goes then he moved to Tuscaloosa. How 435 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:45,959 Speaker 1: can he still be a die hard Arizona fan. He can't. 436 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:51,400 Speaker 1: That's the issue. That's the issue. Um in the back 437 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:54,480 Speaker 1: twelve though, there have been a number of coaching changes 438 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 1: that have gone on, and one of them has just whoa, 439 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,879 Speaker 1: there's been a will changes and there might actually be 440 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:08,640 Speaker 1: another one. I'm hearing some some chatter because the University 441 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 1: of Washington has they lost their defensive coordinator Pete Kiwa 442 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:23,280 Speaker 1: Kiwatowski Kiowski. Uh. They lost him to go down to 443 00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 1: Texas with with seven wins sark, which probably made them 444 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 1: a little bit more upset too, because they're like, hold up, 445 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 1: we lost our coach to go to our old coach 446 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 1: who left us for usc Yeah. He yes, increased to 447 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:45,880 Speaker 1: do the same job. Yeah. And Washington had been priding 448 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:49,119 Speaker 1: them themselves because they were talking trash to Oregon people 449 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: like ha, you guys, uh, you guys keep having all 450 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:59,119 Speaker 1: this coordinator turnover. Avalos leaves take a head coaching job, 451 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 1: so does Arroyo leave take a head coaching job at 452 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 1: at U and l v oh so much coaching turms 453 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 1: that that doesn't happen at University of Washington, And then 454 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 1: University of Washington loses their defensive coordinator. So then they're like, 455 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 1: we have to get a big name to replace him. 456 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 1: Like every single fan base, They're like, we want a 457 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:26,160 Speaker 1: big name to replace we need a proven guy. So, uh, Oregon, 458 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 1: who lost their defensive coordinator, uh Avalos to go be 459 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 1: the boys the state coach. Then he's replaced by actually, 460 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 1: let's stay on Washington first. So so Washington lose their 461 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 1: defensive coordinat they I don't know if they can't find 462 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 1: one or what, but they end up replacing him with 463 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 1: this guy named Bob Gregory. How does George Rice to 464 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 1: know Bob Gregory? Bob Gregory was on a coaching staff 465 00:28:54,440 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 1: with George Rice stir And it's amazing that I remember that, right, Yeah, 466 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:02,480 Speaker 1: I mean, Ben, we've established that your memory is not 467 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 1: as it's not as sharp as your grasp of current events. Okay, 468 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 1: so he was our dB coach at the University of 469 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 1: Oregon while I was there for two years. How about that? 470 00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 1: So that's how I know him and ironically this this 471 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 1: dude is just a flip flopper. So he went to 472 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 1: the University of Washington, I'm no, I'm sorry, went to Washington. 473 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 1: He played at Washington State. He's from Spokane. Coach at 474 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 1: the University of Washington multiple years, then went to Kobe 475 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 1: a g A at Oregon, then went to with lamb 476 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:47,959 Speaker 1: at College which is in Oregon, Oregon dB coach Boise 477 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,240 Speaker 1: State as a d C, cal as a d C, 478 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 1: then goes back to Boise State and then ends up 479 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 1: at Washington. This dude. So so when Washington and Oregon 480 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:02,720 Speaker 1: fans are like, yeah, our coaches, no, Bob Gregory is 481 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 1: I don't know who he belongs So he belongs to 482 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 1: the streets, he belongs to everybody. He's everybody's coach. I 483 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 1: want to where his loyalties really lie, though, Yeah, I mean, 484 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:20,280 Speaker 1: I don't know this. This really feels like it happened 485 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 1: because of a I don't know. The vibe from Washington 486 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 1: fans is very much that this was an issue of 487 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 1: laziness on the part of Jimmy Lake. Let me read. 488 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 1: Let me read to you some of the reaction from 489 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 1: the University of Washington announcing Bob Gregory as the defensive 490 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 1: coordinator on Twitter. Now, Twitter is what the third most 491 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 1: toxic platform for replies because number one is message boards 492 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 1: because people are comfortable there and it's behind somewhat of 493 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,880 Speaker 1: a wall and you're allowed to really express how you feel. Um. 494 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 1: Number to his Facebook, Like that's as far as the 495 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 1: social media goes, Like, that's where people really really go 496 00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 1: off the rails. And Twitter you only have like characters. 497 00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: You really got to get your feelings out quickly. Um. 498 00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 1: And the this is a defensive coordinator higher of somebody 499 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,400 Speaker 1: who was already on the staff. So this isn't like 500 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,800 Speaker 1: the jet fish higher down at University of Arizona which 501 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:27,800 Speaker 1: was roundly um mocked. And it's definitely not like the 502 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 1: Herm Edwards higher which was roundly mocked by by fans 503 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 1: at the time. This is somebody who was already on 504 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 1: your very successful uh staff. So University of Washington tweets 505 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 1: out that they named Bob Gregory is the new defensive 506 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:46,440 Speaker 1: coordinator for the Dogs. The first reply is, I'm canceling 507 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 1: my tickets on my forty season. I'm dropping all donations. 508 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 1: This program does not want to win. I am done. 509 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:57,880 Speaker 1: The next comment is Jen Cohen. This fan is not 510 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:01,400 Speaker 1: an anomaly. Coach Lake has done nothing to promote the program. 511 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 1: His actions are not consistent with what it takes to 512 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:07,120 Speaker 1: run a high level Power five program. If Jimmy wants 513 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 1: to run the team like this, he can go coach 514 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 1: at Wake Forest, not University of Washington. Another University of 515 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 1: Washington fan chips in and says, this is effing terrible. 516 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:24,200 Speaker 1: Nice job, Jimmy Lake. Uh. Another fan says just embarrassing. 517 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,360 Speaker 1: University of Washington doesn't care about winning, and coach Jimmy 518 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 1: Lake is in over his head. They just go on 519 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:36,120 Speaker 1: like that for a very long time, Sandwiched in between um, 520 00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:39,480 Speaker 1: people who are saying, who are who are Oregon fans 521 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 1: who are kind of trolling them? Um, but this was 522 00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 1: another interesting one. This is a Ty Willingham higher. And 523 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 1: then another couple of people said fire Jen Cohen, who 524 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 1: is widely believed to be one of Yes, she's the 525 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 1: best thing they got going up there. Uh yeah. And 526 00:32:57,040 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 1: then so there's another person that said this is a 527 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 1: discus race. These are all like known Washington football twitter accounts. Um, 528 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 1: let's see here, we got a we got a few 529 00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:12,760 Speaker 1: quote tweets. Um, and they all seem to be okay. 530 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 1: So Washington Football Marketing is a fan account. It says 531 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:18,440 Speaker 1: this is so bad. All I can do is enjoy 532 00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:20,960 Speaker 1: the ducks trolling us. I'll let them have their laugh now. 533 00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 1: But who's gonna be laughing when he's fired and replaced 534 00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 1: with Nick Holt bad example. I guess it will be them, 535 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 1: but maybe the higher after that? Um it's yeah, it's 536 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 1: it's rough man, And I guess I guess for those 537 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 1: in the know, they feel like he is the lowest 538 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:48,080 Speaker 1: level recruiter at the entire school. Um. And he was 539 00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:51,480 Speaker 1: actually asked I think Jimmy Lake was actually asked about that, 540 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,440 Speaker 1: and he's and Jimmy Lake responded by saying, like, hey, 541 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 1: we have plenty of depth linebacker. But like the thought 542 00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 1: is that it was Lake that was really doing the 543 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 1: um the recruiting for the defense that they got. So 544 00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:12,359 Speaker 1: um yeah, man, it seems to be universally panned. The 545 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:15,560 Speaker 1: only people that I see that are pushing back on 546 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 1: this not being a good hire are the people who 547 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:20,799 Speaker 1: want more reasons why it's a bad higher Like they 548 00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:22,799 Speaker 1: they said, Hey, I'm not in the know, please fill 549 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:25,879 Speaker 1: me in on what is going on here? So that's 550 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:28,839 Speaker 1: a rough h that's a rough one. Can we let's 551 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:33,240 Speaker 1: move on to Oregon States Oregon University of Oregon's decision 552 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:41,800 Speaker 1: um to announce their defensive coordinator, Tim to read it. Yep, yep, Tim, 553 00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:46,239 Speaker 1: you knew, Yes, Yeah, I knew this was coming in. 554 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 1: This was the guy wanted the whole time. The funniest 555 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:51,960 Speaker 1: part was when you go on a lot of these 556 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 1: fans sites and there their hires, like the people that 557 00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 1: they put on their you know, their short list of 558 00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:06,640 Speaker 1: candidates or their list of candidates. It's always hilarious to 559 00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:09,400 Speaker 1: me because and the one that I saw for Oregon 560 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:14,080 Speaker 1: was hilarious for their defensive coordinator. Mind you, they got 561 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:19,000 Speaker 1: the dude who I wanted, right. But one of the 562 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,719 Speaker 1: people who came up as far as because they're still 563 00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:26,160 Speaker 1: missing a dB coach um was Gerald Alexander, who used 564 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:31,000 Speaker 1: to be at Cal but it's now with the Miami Dolphins, 565 00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:33,239 Speaker 1: and his name keeps coming up, and I was like, 566 00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:38,839 Speaker 1: it's not happening. I was. I told the people who 567 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:41,359 Speaker 1: wrote it. I was like, he's not coming, don't even 568 00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:43,880 Speaker 1: put it, put his name out there. It's not happening. 569 00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:45,879 Speaker 1: And they're like, are you sure? I was like, I'm 570 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:50,240 Speaker 1: one positives. He's not going back to college unless things 571 00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 1: for some reason don't work out in the NFL, or 572 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 1: somebody offers him a like if if he got an 573 00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:59,360 Speaker 1: opportunity to take like U C, l A or USC, 574 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 1: they were gonna just break up, back up the Brinks truck, 575 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:06,600 Speaker 1: and he hadn't got a and he was in an 576 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:10,360 Speaker 1: Eric b Enemy situation, he would probably take it. But 577 00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:15,560 Speaker 1: besides that, he ain't coming. He's like, you know, the 578 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 1: Wolf of Wall Street. I'm not leaving. I'm not leaving. 579 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 1: That's the way. He isn't an NFL right now. Yeah, 580 00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:23,759 Speaker 1: I saw that somebody. I saw that somebody else had 581 00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:26,320 Speaker 1: tweeted like, yeah, hey guys, he's not coming back to college. 582 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:28,799 Speaker 1: And he had a really good year, so he's got 583 00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:31,200 Speaker 1: a lot of juice behind his name. Um with the 584 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:34,200 Speaker 1: with the Dolphins defense, and it really helped turn around 585 00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:40,719 Speaker 1: what was the worst secondary UM probably seasons in all 586 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:43,719 Speaker 1: of college football and uh and they worked really hard 587 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:45,880 Speaker 1: to turn things around at Cal and and he was 588 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:48,319 Speaker 1: UM and de Ruter was out there with him. He 589 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:54,799 Speaker 1: was there from seventeen to UM and Yeah, I mean 590 00:36:54,880 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 1: Cal's defense just improved year over year, and he actually 591 00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 1: did a decent job as head coach of Fresno State. 592 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:07,359 Speaker 1: I know somebody who went out to play for his 593 00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:10,399 Speaker 1: predecessor and then got there and had one meeting with 594 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,480 Speaker 1: de Ruyter and was like, this isn't for me, and 595 00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 1: immediately UM transferred. And that was somebody who wasn't really 596 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:19,359 Speaker 1: like a serious person. They got kicked out of three 597 00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:23,240 Speaker 1: other colleges before UM it was all said and done. 598 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,399 Speaker 1: But he seems to be a pretty serious, no nonsense guy, 599 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:29,360 Speaker 1: and I think he'll fit in well with Oregon staff 600 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,840 Speaker 1: that they have in place right now. But he is 601 00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:35,080 Speaker 1: walking into a real pressure cooker of a situation because 602 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 1: the thought about Mario crystal Ball is, if you're really 603 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:44,279 Speaker 1: gonna be in a CEO figurehead position where you're the 604 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:47,919 Speaker 1: face of the team and the head of recruiting, your 605 00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:50,680 Speaker 1: coordinators have a lot of responsibility to make sure that 606 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:56,160 Speaker 1: you are competitive, um all of the time, because even 607 00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:59,640 Speaker 1: if they screw up, it's your head on the job 608 00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:02,520 Speaker 1: and block and so UM. I think that there's probably 609 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:05,480 Speaker 1: some mixed feelings about crystal Ball's ability as a coach 610 00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:08,880 Speaker 1: and game manager right now. Definitely not as a recruiter, 611 00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:11,880 Speaker 1: but Um, this is an important I think this is 612 00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:16,759 Speaker 1: a really important higher uh for because and anybody who 613 00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:21,280 Speaker 1: doesn't know. So we talked about it. We talked about 614 00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:23,759 Speaker 1: this during the football season, about what was going on 615 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:25,719 Speaker 1: with Cow's defense because it wasn't quite as good as 616 00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 1: it was. The thing that changed was, I mean at 617 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 1: a tide from losing some players to the NFL, including 618 00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:35,680 Speaker 1: the leading tackler in the back twelve, was that Tim 619 00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:39,800 Speaker 1: de Ruter had been the offensive coordinator and play caller 620 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:47,719 Speaker 1: all that. Justin Wilcox then promotes Peter Sermon to co 621 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:51,680 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator and play caller. So Tim de Ruter got 622 00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:54,800 Speaker 1: a demotion for doing a really good job and with 623 00:38:55,000 --> 00:39:00,399 Speaker 1: coaches that don't sit well, that doesn't sit well at all. 624 00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:04,800 Speaker 1: So what so that was kind of the impetus for 625 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 1: Tim de Reuter leaving Cow to go to Oregon. And yeah, 626 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,879 Speaker 1: and so like, I'm not sure if there's a better 627 00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:18,960 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator in the Pac twelve. So I expect Oregon, 628 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:23,760 Speaker 1: whose defense dramatically improved under Avelos after Jim Jim Levitt 629 00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:25,960 Speaker 1: built it up a little bit, I expect this to be, 630 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:29,320 Speaker 1: especially talent wise, to be one of the more dominant 631 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:31,319 Speaker 1: defense is not just in the Pac twelve, but in 632 00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:38,920 Speaker 1: the country. And then you had Keith Heyward leave Oregon 633 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:42,480 Speaker 1: and being there defensive back coach, and he's a hell 634 00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:47,680 Speaker 1: of a recruiter. He left to go to cow and 635 00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:50,000 Speaker 1: the reason why he left Oregon so he's taking I 636 00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:52,440 Speaker 1: think he's taking a pay cut to go to Cow. Uh. 637 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be co d C and outside 638 00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:59,440 Speaker 1: linebackers coach. So here is the thing. So he's upset 639 00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:01,800 Speaker 1: because us, and granted, I'd be a little bit upset 640 00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:06,360 Speaker 1: to because here's what I've heard that the defensive coordinator 641 00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:11,319 Speaker 1: position was either promised to him. This is before avelose came. 642 00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:14,560 Speaker 1: This is when Jim Levitt left, was either promised to 643 00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 1: him or that he would be like the prime candidate, 644 00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 1: and that didn't happen. They hired Avalos from Boise State, 645 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:28,680 Speaker 1: and then and then when Avalos left to take the 646 00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:33,279 Speaker 1: Boys head Boys head coaching job, he then believed was like, Yo, 647 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:36,000 Speaker 1: here's here's here's my shot. And mind you, he's been 648 00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:38,640 Speaker 1: a little disgruntled kind of the whole time. I'm granted 649 00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:41,480 Speaker 1: I would be too, because you're a good coach, hell 650 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 1: of a recruiter and you feel like you're getting passed up. 651 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:47,040 Speaker 1: You're making great money, like he's one of the higher 652 00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:52,200 Speaker 1: paid UM assistant coaches. Impact, well, that's not a coordinator, 653 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:58,520 Speaker 1: and then you get passed up again. Yeah, you can 654 00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:01,000 Speaker 1: see that it's not happening where you where you are, 655 00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:05,960 Speaker 1: So you gotta make him make a move. Okay, yeah, 656 00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:10,320 Speaker 1: I mean do what you gotta do, right, I get it. Um, 657 00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:12,200 Speaker 1: let's talk about some of these other moves that I 658 00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:16,399 Speaker 1: found interesting. So Jimmy Doherty, who was once the wide 659 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:18,760 Speaker 1: receivers coach at Oregon and has been the wide receivers 660 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:22,880 Speaker 1: coach at u c l A. UM, he took the 661 00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:27,960 Speaker 1: wide receivers coach job at University of Arizona, leaving and 662 00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:31,240 Speaker 1: opening at u c l A, and they promoted Jerry 663 00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:34,920 Speaker 1: new Heisl, son of former u c l A and 664 00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:39,719 Speaker 1: Colorado Washington coach Ricknewisl. What do you think about that one? 665 00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:47,480 Speaker 1: It's funny because he is a guy who's been working 666 00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:49,880 Speaker 1: on u c l A staff for a while. He 667 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:55,000 Speaker 1: had been working with the quarterbacks. And it's funny because 668 00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:59,120 Speaker 1: you can't outrun your name sometimes because what I think 669 00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:04,000 Speaker 1: about him kind of involves his dad. But then not 670 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:08,120 Speaker 1: because he looks like a surfer boy who blonde hair, 671 00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:11,719 Speaker 1: blue eyes. I believe too, he just doesn't look like 672 00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:14,319 Speaker 1: a football coach. But apparently he knows what he's doing. 673 00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:17,279 Speaker 1: So I'm not the person to speak objectively because and 674 00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:20,879 Speaker 1: then truthfully, I haven't specifically asked about him too much, 675 00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:24,759 Speaker 1: but I mean he seems competent, so I don't have 676 00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:27,239 Speaker 1: it a negative thing or a positive thing to say 677 00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,880 Speaker 1: about him either way so far. Yeah, and and so 678 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:32,879 Speaker 1: I mean he worked under he worked under Norma zone 679 00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:37,040 Speaker 1: out at Texas A and m Um, he's worked for 680 00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:40,799 Speaker 1: for Kevin someone, and he's you know, he has he 681 00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:43,840 Speaker 1: actually played at u c l A. Um Brett Hunley 682 00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:47,080 Speaker 1: got hurt and he let a comeback win over Texas, 683 00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:49,360 Speaker 1: So you know, I think he's really well liked, and 684 00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:52,640 Speaker 1: I think they're all rooting for him, and um, and 685 00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:55,000 Speaker 1: you like to see stuff like that that not you 686 00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:58,400 Speaker 1: know that Rick new Heizel's relationship with U c l 687 00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:00,760 Speaker 1: A isn't damaged to the point where his son can't 688 00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:03,560 Speaker 1: on his own merits work his way up the ladder, 689 00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:06,719 Speaker 1: which is kind of nice. Um, here's another one I 690 00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:10,600 Speaker 1: wanted to get your take on because the war for 691 00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:18,400 Speaker 1: Southern California seems to be the The guns that seem 692 00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:22,600 Speaker 1: to be uh being filled with the most ammunition are 693 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:27,520 Speaker 1: the coaching staffs UM at Arizona State and the coaching 694 00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:31,399 Speaker 1: staffs at USC. And there continues to be this this 695 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:35,600 Speaker 1: staffing up for what will I think in this upcoming 696 00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:40,799 Speaker 1: recruiting class two class will be the fiercest battle over 697 00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:44,600 Speaker 1: Southern California UM in the history of these two schools. 698 00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:47,759 Speaker 1: Now USC has the advantage of just being USC and 699 00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:53,360 Speaker 1: being in the area. But Chris Claiborne, who is really 700 00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:55,879 Speaker 1: really well known as a high school coach and as 701 00:43:55,880 --> 00:44:01,400 Speaker 1: a former USC player, got plucked by Arizona State. Princess 702 00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:06,880 Speaker 1: gil who had been a graduate assistant at USC before 703 00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:09,919 Speaker 1: going to Oregon before becoming the wide receiver's coach at 704 00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:13,319 Speaker 1: a s U, apparently was flirting with the idea of 705 00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:16,000 Speaker 1: going over to USC, and he decides to stay at 706 00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:18,000 Speaker 1: a s U. He's got a lot of Southern California 707 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:22,160 Speaker 1: connections UM Antonio Pierce. They've kind of pushed Marvin Lewis 708 00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:24,560 Speaker 1: to the side because he keeps interviewing for these NFL jobs. 709 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:27,200 Speaker 1: He's going to remain a special advisor to the program. 710 00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:30,359 Speaker 1: But now Antonio Pierce is fully the defensive coordinator. He's 711 00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:34,600 Speaker 1: a former Southern California UM High school coach and and 712 00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:38,080 Speaker 1: you know resident and that's where he's from. And in 713 00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:42,120 Speaker 1: usc has reached deep into the bag to pull a 714 00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:45,200 Speaker 1: couple of the University of California is more talented staff 715 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:47,480 Speaker 1: members when it comes to recruiting. They brought both the 716 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:51,000 Speaker 1: film guy and Marshall Charrington, the director of recruiting, down 717 00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:54,160 Speaker 1: to usc UM and their specialty has kind of been 718 00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:57,160 Speaker 1: so cow And so what do you think of these two? 719 00:44:57,200 --> 00:44:59,000 Speaker 1: Oh and I guess you know we we probably mentioned 720 00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:02,240 Speaker 1: it before, but usc his named Dante Williams associate head coach. 721 00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:04,800 Speaker 1: So what do you think of this whole proxy battle 722 00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:06,920 Speaker 1: of these two gearing up to to go head to 723 00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:09,200 Speaker 1: head in so cowt And do you think a SU 724 00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 1: can gain any ground at all? Can they gain ground? Yes? 725 00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:21,719 Speaker 1: Because Clay Helton is the head coach. And if they 726 00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:27,520 Speaker 1: don't win this year, if they go you know, eight 727 00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:31,640 Speaker 1: and four and then play a bowl game, win or lose, 728 00:45:32,640 --> 00:45:35,799 Speaker 1: there's gonna be like they're not They're still not gonna 729 00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:40,640 Speaker 1: fire him, but they will like it. It will hurt 730 00:45:40,719 --> 00:45:43,279 Speaker 1: recruiting some because there's only so many times that you 731 00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:47,239 Speaker 1: can say, hey, hey, come come here, kid, come here, 732 00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:50,960 Speaker 1: we got you, we got you. But then Arizona State 733 00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:55,520 Speaker 1: has to, like they have to stop talking about it too, 734 00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:59,480 Speaker 1: you know, because this is this could be your last 735 00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:07,360 Speaker 1: season and of Jayden Daniels at quarterback, so your opportunity 736 00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:10,000 Speaker 1: could have been missed because now you've got to find 737 00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:14,680 Speaker 1: another super cat at quarterback or a super super devil 738 00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:21,200 Speaker 1: at quarterback like you. So Arizona State has to For 739 00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:24,640 Speaker 1: Arizona State to gain ground, they needed to beat USC, 740 00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:27,680 Speaker 1: which they had the opportunity to do this season and 741 00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:32,120 Speaker 1: they didn't. They need to beat USC next season. Like 742 00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:35,680 Speaker 1: I know, that's living in revisionist history, but those are 743 00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:39,440 Speaker 1: the things that need to take advantage. And that's kind 744 00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:41,680 Speaker 1: of what's been going on on the recruiting front too. 745 00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:46,160 Speaker 1: So So I got some Ralph Amsden level information today 746 00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:53,560 Speaker 1: for you, Ralph. So So, of the SO nine, there 747 00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:58,960 Speaker 1: were nineteen prospects from California in the top seven in 748 00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:03,960 Speaker 1: the in their top two four seven right, Uh, it's 749 00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:07,160 Speaker 1: that was the lowest number in the last five years. 750 00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:14,040 Speaker 1: And my mind, you in twenty in twenty nineteen there 751 00:47:14,080 --> 00:47:18,560 Speaker 1: were thirty plus. Okay, and um, but part of that, 752 00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:21,920 Speaker 1: they believe is because California didn't play high school football 753 00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:23,960 Speaker 1: and so man, these kids didn't get rated properly and 754 00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:28,799 Speaker 1: all this stuff. Right, Okay, So this year, out of 755 00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:35,880 Speaker 1: those out of the top prospects from the state of California, 756 00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:42,719 Speaker 1: guess who signed the most. I'm you brought it up? 757 00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:48,120 Speaker 1: So assuming Oregon? No, no, no, no no, no no. That 758 00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:50,000 Speaker 1: was that was last year and the year before and 759 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:53,400 Speaker 1: all that. No, but this this year was USC. Okay, 760 00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:59,160 Speaker 1: USC only got one last year, which is unbelievable. This 761 00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:04,800 Speaker 1: year they got eight. Second was Oregon with four, Utah, 762 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:08,680 Speaker 1: Michigan and cal both got two of the top twenty prospects. 763 00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:12,680 Speaker 1: Notre Dame, Clemson, Georgia, Arizona State, Texas and U C. 764 00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:16,360 Speaker 1: L A all got one, all got one. And that 765 00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:20,040 Speaker 1: would be fine If Arizona, that wouldn't be Sorry, Arizona State, 766 00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:23,080 Speaker 1: that wouldn't be a big deal for them if they 767 00:48:23,120 --> 00:48:25,840 Speaker 1: were recruiting their own state. Well, but they're not recruiting 768 00:48:25,840 --> 00:48:27,759 Speaker 1: their own state. Well, if they were getting all the 769 00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:30,360 Speaker 1: top kids in Arizona, that it wouldn't be an issue. 770 00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:34,680 Speaker 1: Not getting California. Remember, they put it on a big push. Oh, 771 00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:37,799 Speaker 1: we're gonna take Callie all this stuff all the and 772 00:48:37,920 --> 00:48:42,919 Speaker 1: you get one prospect that ain't the movie I mean, 773 00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:46,680 Speaker 1: and then you look at that versus the top twenty 774 00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:49,759 Speaker 1: five prospects in Florida. Right, where do you think the 775 00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:52,520 Speaker 1: top twenty five prospects in Florida? What college do you 776 00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:55,480 Speaker 1: think that they committed to and have signed to so 777 00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:58,520 Speaker 1: so far? I feel like there's been a Miami resurgence. 778 00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:02,920 Speaker 1: I feel like they'd be elite. The the answer is 779 00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:10,680 Speaker 1: Alabama with six, Miami with four. My Miami would be 780 00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:14,720 Speaker 1: higher if you counted other transfer portals. Um UH three 781 00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:19,520 Speaker 1: went to University of Florida, three to Clemson, to to Maryland, 782 00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:23,719 Speaker 1: to to Georgia, one in Michigan, Oklahoma, USC and U 783 00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:26,640 Speaker 1: C l A. And then there's Terry Aron Arnold who's 784 00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:30,359 Speaker 1: uncommitted as well, and then there's Georgia. Georgia. Of their 785 00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:33,200 Speaker 1: top twenty five prospects, eight went to eight went to 786 00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:37,239 Speaker 1: Georgia for the Clemson three to Florida to to Notre 787 00:49:37,360 --> 00:49:40,840 Speaker 1: Dame and then Alabama, Ohio State, Miami, l S, U, Tennessee, 788 00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:45,800 Speaker 1: Indiana and NC State have one. And then Texas. Texas 789 00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:49,680 Speaker 1: is very similar to what's happened in California. Of their 790 00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:56,399 Speaker 1: top twenty five prospects, Texas and M six, Alabama, five, Oklahoma, 791 00:49:56,480 --> 00:50:00,200 Speaker 1: four two went to Texas and l s U. So there, 792 00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:04,200 Speaker 1: Texas is not recruiting it state very well. Ohio State, Kansas, 793 00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:08,080 Speaker 1: s m U, Mississippi State, and cow All got one. 794 00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:12,480 Speaker 1: And the reason why those four states will the reason 795 00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:16,200 Speaker 1: why those states are so important is because out of 796 00:50:16,239 --> 00:50:23,200 Speaker 1: the like twenty five hundred or whatever UM prospects that 797 00:50:23,239 --> 00:50:29,480 Speaker 1: they rate that they've rated, forty of them come from 798 00:50:29,480 --> 00:50:38,440 Speaker 1: those states. Of them come from Texas, Florida, Georgia in California, 799 00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:43,319 Speaker 1: those four states make up fort of the top two 800 00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:48,080 Speaker 1: four seven. So so yeah. So to make a long 801 00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:52,160 Speaker 1: story short, can Arizona State gain some ground? Uh if 802 00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:56,640 Speaker 1: they can recruit better in California? So yeah, yeah, And 803 00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:59,200 Speaker 1: I mean that that seems to be the goal. Because 804 00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:02,480 Speaker 1: you have a former USC player in Chris Clayborne as 805 00:51:02,520 --> 00:51:06,759 Speaker 1: your linebackers coach, you have a former USC player UM 806 00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:11,879 Speaker 1: in Chris Hawkins as your defensive backs coach. You've got 807 00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:17,920 Speaker 1: a Southern California native in Antonio Pierce as your defensive coordinator, 808 00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:22,319 Speaker 1: and um, you know herm Edwards is a is a 809 00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:25,600 Speaker 1: California guy as well. And then Prentice gil spent three 810 00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:28,000 Speaker 1: years at USC before going to Oregon ended up in 811 00:51:28,120 --> 00:51:30,000 Speaker 1: a s U, So that seems to be where their 812 00:51:30,040 --> 00:51:35,080 Speaker 1: focus is. If it doesn't if the class isn't uh 813 00:51:35,120 --> 00:51:37,840 Speaker 1: you know those fifty fifty battles where a lot of 814 00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:39,880 Speaker 1: USC kids use a s U as a as a 815 00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:42,920 Speaker 1: backup plan or a fallback school, which is how some 816 00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:46,400 Speaker 1: of a s u's best recruits have ended up UM 817 00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:48,560 Speaker 1: at a s U in the first place, whether it's 818 00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:50,279 Speaker 1: you know, to Shawn Smallwood who was a four year 819 00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:54,880 Speaker 1: starter UM at defensive tackle, or or even Vontz Perfect 820 00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:59,799 Speaker 1: and guys like that. Um, you know, unless they're not 821 00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:02,800 Speaker 1: just getting guys because space filled up at USC, unless 822 00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:06,480 Speaker 1: they're actually winning these head to head battles, it would 823 00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:09,680 Speaker 1: seem that the hires and the fortification that you're trying 824 00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:15,200 Speaker 1: to do to your staff aren't working. Like they're going 825 00:52:15,239 --> 00:52:17,200 Speaker 1: for broke. I feel like, and I think that the 826 00:52:17,239 --> 00:52:20,600 Speaker 1: fans should look at it that way as well. UM. 827 00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:24,480 Speaker 1: Another addition, a staff addition UM that is sort of 828 00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:29,799 Speaker 1: off the UM out a left field is UM I 829 00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:33,839 Speaker 1: would Jed Fish has done absolutely everything right since being 830 00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:37,279 Speaker 1: hired at University of Arizona. He has brought in a 831 00:52:37,360 --> 00:52:39,840 Speaker 1: ton of people who have University of Arizona ties to 832 00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:42,839 Speaker 1: make up for the fact that he doesn't really have that. 833 00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:44,960 Speaker 1: They're kind of trying to bring the University of Arizona 834 00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:48,359 Speaker 1: pride back, and in doing so, they've offered a consultant 835 00:52:48,440 --> 00:52:50,800 Speaker 1: role to Teddy Bruski, who's going to continue to be 836 00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:54,440 Speaker 1: an employee of ESPN. But Teddy Bruski is now technically 837 00:52:54,640 --> 00:52:58,160 Speaker 1: on staff at University of Arizona. What do you think 838 00:52:58,160 --> 00:53:03,880 Speaker 1: of that? I think that, Okay, so you do have 839 00:53:03,960 --> 00:53:05,919 Speaker 1: to try to get a little bit of juice right 840 00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:11,920 Speaker 1: to build some momentum, and Arizona is looking at what 841 00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:18,439 Speaker 1: Arizona State has done. I mean, I still don't think 842 00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:25,200 Speaker 1: we've seen the true results of what Herm and these 843 00:53:25,239 --> 00:53:29,239 Speaker 1: guys have built at Arizona State yet or like or 844 00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:33,080 Speaker 1: it's just been a negligible increase, like I'm not sure. 845 00:53:33,480 --> 00:53:35,520 Speaker 1: I think that some of these things take years and 846 00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:39,080 Speaker 1: years to actual seed, that the seed time harvest of 847 00:53:39,080 --> 00:53:45,160 Speaker 1: it is longer, but I'm not sure that it's such 848 00:53:45,200 --> 00:53:49,440 Speaker 1: a groundbreaking difference in what they're doing. Yeah, well I 849 00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:54,000 Speaker 1: would I would say that, Um, you had next to 850 00:53:54,040 --> 00:53:56,480 Speaker 1: no fans even if they were allowed to go to 851 00:53:56,480 --> 00:54:00,000 Speaker 1: the games. And so I think it's necessary for Universe 852 00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:03,319 Speaker 1: steve Arizona to really tap into whatever pride people have 853 00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:06,319 Speaker 1: left and wake that up. And so I think that 854 00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:09,600 Speaker 1: it's probably a good move. Um. The one thing that 855 00:54:09,640 --> 00:54:14,080 Speaker 1: they've said since they got um in position with this 856 00:54:14,160 --> 00:54:16,760 Speaker 1: staff is that they are actually going to take Arizona seriously, 857 00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:20,080 Speaker 1: like Arizona High School recruiting and so that, you know, 858 00:54:20,160 --> 00:54:23,320 Speaker 1: as they should, because it's like a free it's free Mondey. 859 00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:25,239 Speaker 1: We we beat this to death all the time, and 860 00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:27,799 Speaker 1: I don't want to continue to really get into it, 861 00:54:27,840 --> 00:54:30,360 Speaker 1: but I will say that I talked to a lot 862 00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:33,560 Speaker 1: of high school coaches down here in Arizona who felt 863 00:54:33,640 --> 00:54:35,799 Speaker 1: heard for the first time because they had got to 864 00:54:35,800 --> 00:54:39,080 Speaker 1: have a couple of conversations with assistants and head coaches. 865 00:54:39,080 --> 00:54:41,520 Speaker 1: But what what head coaches and assistance get sick of 866 00:54:42,080 --> 00:54:44,560 Speaker 1: is those relationships need nurtured. You can't just show your 867 00:54:44,560 --> 00:54:47,040 Speaker 1: face once and have them be excited because you're a 868 00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:49,160 Speaker 1: college football coach, Like they don't look at you as 869 00:54:49,200 --> 00:54:50,719 Speaker 1: a college football coach They don't look at you as 870 00:54:50,760 --> 00:54:53,040 Speaker 1: a celebrity. They look at you as a peer. And 871 00:54:53,080 --> 00:54:55,160 Speaker 1: if you take them for granted or you ignore them, 872 00:54:55,239 --> 00:54:59,239 Speaker 1: then they will UM football coaches are really good at 873 00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:01,319 Speaker 1: complaining if you're see one on a sideline and a 874 00:55:01,360 --> 00:55:05,319 Speaker 1: call doesn't go their way. UM, that's exactly how they 875 00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:07,440 Speaker 1: act when you're pissing them off as a college football 876 00:55:07,440 --> 00:55:09,719 Speaker 1: coach and jerking them around as somebody who could have 877 00:55:09,719 --> 00:55:13,359 Speaker 1: the potential to recruit their kids, they will talk shit 878 00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:18,279 Speaker 1: about you. Two people like me, So like I'll know, 879 00:55:19,000 --> 00:55:23,040 Speaker 1: I'll know. I knew immediately that after five months of 880 00:55:23,120 --> 00:55:27,120 Speaker 1: Kevin Sumlin being at University of Arizona that they that 881 00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:30,200 Speaker 1: they weren't taken any of that seriously, right. I knew 882 00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:33,680 Speaker 1: UM within a couple of months of Herm Edward's staff 883 00:55:33,800 --> 00:55:37,960 Speaker 1: being at Arizona State that Arizona wasn't going to be 884 00:55:38,719 --> 00:55:43,319 Speaker 1: the priority, that they had a completely different set of priorities. Like, 885 00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:46,840 Speaker 1: so you'll know, UM. And as as it stands right now, 886 00:55:46,880 --> 00:55:49,480 Speaker 1: I'm getting a lot of really positive feedback from coaches 887 00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:53,719 Speaker 1: about their initial contact with UM University of Arizona. But 888 00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:58,919 Speaker 1: it's just it. It takes constant nurturing everyone gets sick 889 00:55:58,920 --> 00:56:01,160 Speaker 1: of the amount of effort takes to be able to 890 00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:05,040 Speaker 1: stake acclaim um in your home state. Uh. And it's 891 00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:07,640 Speaker 1: really tough to do when you have consistent staff turnover. 892 00:56:08,360 --> 00:56:13,239 Speaker 1: But when you staff your your your school with mostly alumni, 893 00:56:13,320 --> 00:56:16,160 Speaker 1: then that should take away some of the threat of 894 00:56:16,800 --> 00:56:19,839 Speaker 1: you know, the them not being there year to year. 895 00:56:19,960 --> 00:56:23,480 Speaker 1: So long as the performances is worthy of of keeping 896 00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:29,000 Speaker 1: them around. Then again, um, there's this completely opposite mindset 897 00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:30,720 Speaker 1: if you just go and get the best players regardless 898 00:56:30,760 --> 00:56:33,480 Speaker 1: of where they're at, and that these complaints from locals 899 00:56:33,600 --> 00:56:36,319 Speaker 1: mean absolutely nothing. And I don't believe that, but I 900 00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:40,520 Speaker 1: understand the people that do carry that perspective. Obviously, University 901 00:56:40,520 --> 00:56:42,600 Speaker 1: of Arizona doesn't cary that perspective, otherwise they wouldn't have 902 00:56:42,600 --> 00:56:44,360 Speaker 1: gone out of their way to have a bunch of 903 00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:46,640 Speaker 1: people who used to play football at University of Arizona 904 00:56:46,680 --> 00:56:54,800 Speaker 1: be affiliated with their staff. Yeah. Yeah, Arizona has a shot. 905 00:56:55,280 --> 00:56:58,040 Speaker 1: They do have a shot. Um, we can move on 906 00:56:58,239 --> 00:57:02,640 Speaker 1: to to the Path twelve commissioner. Uh. We on the 907 00:57:02,719 --> 00:57:07,640 Speaker 1: last episode, Hey, hey the witch is dead. Um. Uh, 908 00:57:07,760 --> 00:57:10,480 Speaker 1: Larry Scott is gone. He is going to be ridded 909 00:57:10,560 --> 00:57:13,560 Speaker 1: of our of our hair. I am scared that there 910 00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:16,560 Speaker 1: may be a coup attempt, that he will try to 911 00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:20,480 Speaker 1: find some way to retain power. He may try to 912 00:57:20,560 --> 00:57:24,280 Speaker 1: storm uh the him and the other six figure people. 913 00:57:24,280 --> 00:57:28,400 Speaker 1: They may try to storm the Pack twelve headquarters and 914 00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:31,880 Speaker 1: and take control back. But aside from that, he's gonna 915 00:57:31,880 --> 00:57:36,360 Speaker 1: be gone. And the question was, so he's supposed to 916 00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:42,200 Speaker 1: leave in June, right, Uh, he is supposed to leave 917 00:57:42,240 --> 00:57:47,240 Speaker 1: at the end of June. Okay, So and so people 918 00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:50,400 Speaker 1: were thinking, okay, that the next commissioner will start. Then 919 00:57:50,880 --> 00:57:55,080 Speaker 1: well we find out otherwise that the Pack twelve instead 920 00:57:55,120 --> 00:58:00,160 Speaker 1: of waiting for his tenure to be up, they're like, no, 921 00:58:00,480 --> 00:58:04,280 Speaker 1: we're gonna find him or his replacement in the spring 922 00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:07,560 Speaker 1: and get them in there, which I think is the 923 00:58:07,640 --> 00:58:11,080 Speaker 1: optimal plan, because what what's the point in leaving Larry 924 00:58:11,120 --> 00:58:13,080 Speaker 1: Scotty and to to to leave him in to do 925 00:58:13,200 --> 00:58:16,360 Speaker 1: more great things as commissioner or do you get him 926 00:58:16,360 --> 00:58:19,080 Speaker 1: out as quickly as possible. I think that the pact well, 927 00:58:19,160 --> 00:58:24,720 Speaker 1: uh C e O S made a good move with this. Yes, um, 928 00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:27,520 Speaker 1: you know, as somebody who just had to have UH 929 00:58:27,840 --> 00:58:31,400 Speaker 1: seven molders removed on the same day due to several 930 00:58:31,480 --> 00:58:35,560 Speaker 1: years of of of neglecting a problem. I would say 931 00:58:35,600 --> 00:58:37,520 Speaker 1: that the longer you leave him in, the more damage 932 00:58:37,560 --> 00:58:44,760 Speaker 1: it's gonna do. So so you're speaking from experience, Oh, absolutely, absolutely, 933 00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:48,520 Speaker 1: and I mean it is. It would be nice if 934 00:58:48,640 --> 00:58:50,880 Speaker 1: he was in there on like a don't touch anything deal, 935 00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:55,919 Speaker 1: you know, like just don't don't do anything, like those 936 00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:59,120 Speaker 1: rubber rooms that the when New York teachers would be 937 00:58:59,160 --> 00:59:02,400 Speaker 1: awaiting disciplinary hearings, and they would just put him in 938 00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:04,600 Speaker 1: these rooms where they would sit for eight hours, eat 939 00:59:04,640 --> 00:59:09,280 Speaker 1: their lunch, like scribble on a sketchpad. Um. That would 940 00:59:09,280 --> 00:59:11,720 Speaker 1: be a really great situation for Larry Scott if if 941 00:59:11,720 --> 00:59:14,280 Speaker 1: he was in a situation where, uh, they just put 942 00:59:14,320 --> 00:59:17,200 Speaker 1: him in an office with maybe a computer that doesn't 943 00:59:17,200 --> 00:59:20,320 Speaker 1: connect to the internet and uh he is able to 944 00:59:20,520 --> 00:59:24,080 Speaker 1: uh and maybe just unplug his phone and um let 945 00:59:24,160 --> 00:59:30,400 Speaker 1: him ride this six months out exactly. Dude. He needs 946 00:59:30,440 --> 00:59:33,640 Speaker 1: to be trying to get in the facility like Jamal 947 00:59:33,760 --> 00:59:36,240 Speaker 1: Adams in those videos and in the med that they 948 00:59:36,280 --> 00:59:38,240 Speaker 1: put up where he's trying to get into the Jets 949 00:59:38,240 --> 00:59:40,600 Speaker 1: facility and he's putting in his code and his locked. 950 00:59:41,120 --> 00:59:43,200 Speaker 1: That's the way he needs to just show up one day, 951 00:59:43,240 --> 00:59:45,560 Speaker 1: but you can't tell him because he'll he'll try to 952 00:59:45,640 --> 00:59:48,480 Speaker 1: smuggle documents out or something. No, you just gotta just 953 00:59:48,520 --> 00:59:52,320 Speaker 1: cut it off, bro, you gotta cut it off. Um, 954 00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:56,400 Speaker 1: there is more great news, Ralph.

Yeah, I, um, I definitely got way more 982 01:01:31,760 --> 01:01:35,000 Speaker 1: excited than I needed to be. I feel like, after 983 01:01:35,360 --> 01:01:39,000 Speaker 1: after reading through, um that this is actually going to 984 01:01:39,080 --> 01:01:40,680 Speaker 1: take a lot of time to make sure they get 985 01:01:40,720 --> 01:01:42,960 Speaker 1: it right. And then I had to temper my excitement 986 01:01:43,000 --> 01:01:44,120 Speaker 1: because I was like, I'm gonna go out and buy 987 01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:46,920 Speaker 1: it today and uh and it's you know, it might 988 01:01:46,920 --> 01:01:51,040 Speaker 1: not even be around for the season, and so that's, uh, 989 01:01:51,080 --> 01:01:54,120 Speaker 1: that's unfortunate. But they the idea that they would try 990 01:01:54,160 --> 01:01:56,160 Speaker 1: to find a way to get it right. My initial 991 01:01:56,200 --> 01:01:58,120 Speaker 1: read through, I'm not gonna lie. My initial read through 992 01:01:58,160 --> 01:01:59,480 Speaker 1: was like, wait a minute, money is going to go 993 01:01:59,520 --> 01:02:01,760 Speaker 1: to the team's and not the players. Like, as much 994 01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:03,240 Speaker 1: as I love this game. I still have a p 995 01:02:03,400 --> 01:02:06,240 Speaker 1: S three, I still have n C double. I will 996 01:02:06,280 --> 01:02:09,040 Speaker 1: continue to play that and do the online roster updates. 997 01:02:09,400 --> 01:02:13,320 Speaker 1: Over the players not getting compensated, um, But it sounds 998 01:02:13,360 --> 01:02:16,600 Speaker 1: like by waiting, if the n C double A quits 999 01:02:16,640 --> 01:02:19,520 Speaker 1: trying to punt on all this, um, then then they 1000 01:02:19,560 --> 01:02:23,919 Speaker 1: might be able to work something out that makes more sense. Yeah. 1001 01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:28,640 Speaker 1: And I hate it, dude, I hate it. And the 1002 01:02:28,680 --> 01:02:33,840 Speaker 1: reason why I do hate it is because the ID 1003 01:02:34,040 --> 01:02:37,240 Speaker 1: and and and Granted I'm reading a lot into this, 1004 01:02:37,360 --> 01:02:40,320 Speaker 1: because I do think that the saying not commenting on 1005 01:02:40,400 --> 01:02:42,200 Speaker 1: paying the players and all that stuff is the right 1006 01:02:42,240 --> 01:02:44,680 Speaker 1: thing to do at this point in time, with so 1007 01:02:45,120 --> 01:02:48,160 Speaker 1: little resolution about name, image and likeness, how senate, it's 1008 01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:49,960 Speaker 1: gonna get involved all of that. So I think it's 1009 01:02:49,960 --> 01:02:52,080 Speaker 1: the right move for them not to comment on it. 1010 01:02:52,720 --> 01:02:56,600 Speaker 1: But if the players aren't paid, I am going to 1011 01:02:56,800 --> 01:03:00,480 Speaker 1: be grandstanding for the game to be pulled. So I'm 1012 01:03:00,520 --> 01:03:05,320 Speaker 1: gonna be advocating against what I really want because the players, 1013 01:03:05,560 --> 01:03:07,880 Speaker 1: they deserve the money. And then and if they turn 1014 01:03:07,920 --> 01:03:11,600 Speaker 1: around and say, well it's not the same players, look 1015 01:03:11,640 --> 01:03:15,080 Speaker 1: at him, Uh, look look at the running back from 1016 01:03:15,120 --> 01:03:18,480 Speaker 1: from from Iowa State that's not the that's a white 1017 01:03:18,520 --> 01:03:22,280 Speaker 1: guy now like yeah, but his speed, his trucking ability, 1018 01:03:22,360 --> 01:03:25,640 Speaker 1: all his gared through town, yeah, are the same as 1019 01:03:25,680 --> 01:03:27,760 Speaker 1: the running back there. Now. Yeah, No, that's not gonna 1020 01:03:27,760 --> 01:03:32,200 Speaker 1: work for me, buddy, You saying that changing him from 1021 01:03:32,240 --> 01:03:35,360 Speaker 1: whatever number is, like number thirty one to a thirteen, 1022 01:03:35,560 --> 01:03:40,720 Speaker 1: that's not gonna work for me. No. No, pay them 1023 01:03:40,760 --> 01:03:43,680 Speaker 1: their money, just like the when you're making money off 1024 01:03:43,680 --> 01:03:46,919 Speaker 1: of people, you should pay them. So so there's that. Hey, 1025 01:03:46,920 --> 01:03:48,280 Speaker 1: So I got a question. I know we didn't talk 1026 01:03:48,280 --> 01:03:49,840 Speaker 1: about it in the open, but I did want to 1027 01:03:49,840 --> 01:03:52,600 Speaker 1: get your take on this. Um, we got a few 1028 01:03:52,600 --> 01:03:54,920 Speaker 1: Pack twelve players that are on the active roster going 1029 01:03:54,960 --> 01:03:58,920 Speaker 1: into this weekend Super Bowl, and um, one of the 1030 01:03:58,920 --> 01:04:02,520 Speaker 1: teams is very very very low on Pack twelve talent. 1031 01:04:02,880 --> 01:04:06,320 Speaker 1: I'll see if you can guess which which one has 1032 01:04:06,360 --> 01:04:10,120 Speaker 1: a serious absence of of Pack twelve players out of 1033 01:04:10,120 --> 01:04:18,200 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay and Kansas City. UM. I know there aren't 1034 01:04:18,240 --> 01:04:20,400 Speaker 1: a lot of Pack twelve players in this game, period, 1035 01:04:20,560 --> 01:04:24,480 Speaker 1: but uh, just just because of the teams that made it, 1036 01:04:24,560 --> 01:04:30,520 Speaker 1: but I would say I'm literally guessing right now, I'm 1037 01:04:30,520 --> 01:04:33,440 Speaker 1: gonna say Kansas City just just because I mean, I 1038 01:04:33,440 --> 01:04:39,560 Speaker 1: have no reason, but I'm gonna say Kansas Okay, I'm 1039 01:04:39,560 --> 01:04:43,040 Speaker 1: going to actually go with Tampa. No, I'm gonna go 1040 01:04:43,080 --> 01:04:45,480 Speaker 1: with Kansas City. Kansas City is having more or less 1041 01:04:46,720 --> 01:04:51,160 Speaker 1: Kansas City. Actually, I'm gonna go with my original thought 1042 01:04:51,240 --> 01:04:56,040 Speaker 1: that Tampa has less because Tampa is all the way 1043 01:04:56,080 --> 01:04:59,800 Speaker 1: in Florida and they generally some well like they kind 1044 01:04:59,800 --> 01:05:04,880 Speaker 1: of draft geographically friendly on some level. Two. So I'm 1045 01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:08,600 Speaker 1: gonna go with Tampa. Okay has left, all right, this 1046 01:05:08,680 --> 01:05:12,000 Speaker 1: is gonna be brutal. Uh. There is one player on 1047 01:05:12,080 --> 01:05:15,040 Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs active roster that is a Pack 1048 01:05:15,120 --> 01:05:22,400 Speaker 1: twelve alumnus alumnus. It is one of their offensive linemen 1049 01:05:22,680 --> 01:05:26,120 Speaker 1: is actually in Oregon State alum. And they do have 1050 01:05:26,160 --> 01:05:27,960 Speaker 1: a second Oregon State alum who is not on the 1051 01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:31,720 Speaker 1: active roster in quarterback Matt More, But it's Mike Remer's 1052 01:05:31,920 --> 01:05:35,560 Speaker 1: who is in his eighth year out of Oregon State. 1053 01:05:36,560 --> 01:05:40,160 Speaker 1: He is an offensive lineman six five eight pounds. That 1054 01:05:40,360 --> 01:05:44,440 Speaker 1: is the only Pack twelve player. They would technically have 1055 01:05:44,520 --> 01:05:47,480 Speaker 1: another one, but Todd Graham kicked Mike Pennell off the 1056 01:05:47,520 --> 01:05:51,040 Speaker 1: team at a s U and he went to UH 1057 01:05:51,080 --> 01:05:54,240 Speaker 1: and finished his college career at CSU Pueblo and is 1058 01:05:54,280 --> 01:05:58,240 Speaker 1: now in his seventh year in the NFL. So technically 1059 01:05:58,240 --> 01:06:00,960 Speaker 1: a SU would have a player in this game, but 1060 01:06:01,120 --> 01:06:04,040 Speaker 1: Todd Graham kicked Mike Penal out of school and so 1061 01:06:04,320 --> 01:06:08,120 Speaker 1: they do not. So only one active Pack twelve player 1062 01:06:08,240 --> 01:06:13,800 Speaker 1: on the Chiefs. Do you feel like embarrassed by that? No? Okay, 1063 01:06:13,840 --> 01:06:16,800 Speaker 1: so do you feel embarrassed that there are two CSU 1064 01:06:16,920 --> 01:06:22,040 Speaker 1: Pueblo active players in this game and only one Packed 1065 01:06:22,040 --> 01:06:27,680 Speaker 1: twelve player on the entire Chief's roster? Okay, sometimes that 1066 01:06:27,720 --> 01:06:31,280 Speaker 1: can happen on on teams, but there should actually be 1067 01:06:31,320 --> 01:06:34,360 Speaker 1: more than one. Yeah, there should be more than one. 1068 01:06:34,440 --> 01:06:36,240 Speaker 1: There should there should be at least three on every 1069 01:06:36,240 --> 01:06:39,320 Speaker 1: single roster. Yeah, so there are five on Tampa Bay. 1070 01:06:39,480 --> 01:06:45,440 Speaker 1: Well I want to I want to technically, yeah, if 1071 01:06:45,480 --> 01:06:48,160 Speaker 1: you do it that way, Um, can you guess any 1072 01:06:48,280 --> 01:06:56,680 Speaker 1: of the Pack twelve alumni that are playing for Tampa Bay? Oh? Gosh? Okay, 1073 01:06:56,760 --> 01:06:59,160 Speaker 1: so one of them is a Hall of Famer, so 1074 01:06:59,160 --> 01:07:04,560 Speaker 1: you should be able to get that one Hall of Famer? Yes, 1075 01:07:06,320 --> 01:07:09,600 Speaker 1: Pac twelve. All right, I'm trying to think who they 1076 01:07:09,680 --> 01:07:20,040 Speaker 1: have on their team, So I'm gonna go with oh oh, 1077 01:07:20,160 --> 01:07:27,560 Speaker 1: Rob Greg Galski to Arizona. Yes, yeah, um uh us 1078 01:07:27,840 --> 01:07:31,640 Speaker 1: USC has to. They obviously have Ronald Jones and uh 1079 01:07:31,920 --> 01:07:36,480 Speaker 1: the tackle who just who wait? No, no, he got 1080 01:07:36,560 --> 01:07:40,680 Speaker 1: drafted by my Miami um A Jackson. Yes, just Ronald 1081 01:07:41,800 --> 01:07:46,000 Speaker 1: Just Ronald Jones from UM from Tampa Bay or from 1082 01:07:46,080 --> 01:07:49,720 Speaker 1: USC is the only player on Tampa Bay from the Trojans. 1083 01:07:51,000 --> 01:07:54,920 Speaker 1: Um does Kenyan Barner count because I remember seeing on 1084 01:07:55,000 --> 01:07:59,440 Speaker 1: his Instagram that he had just got gotten signed. So 1085 01:07:59,720 --> 01:08:04,240 Speaker 1: he is on their roster, but he is injured and 1086 01:08:04,240 --> 01:08:06,320 Speaker 1: so he will not be playing in the game. They 1087 01:08:06,360 --> 01:08:09,480 Speaker 1: also have Evan Bayliss on the other side for Kansas 1088 01:08:09,520 --> 01:08:11,320 Speaker 1: City who is injured and not playing in this game. 1089 01:08:11,360 --> 01:08:14,400 Speaker 1: So Oregon does have a little bit of representation. Oh see, 1090 01:08:14,520 --> 01:08:17,559 Speaker 1: exactly they do? You do you know that if Tampa wins, 1091 01:08:17,560 --> 01:08:19,840 Speaker 1: this is gonna be Kenyan Barner's third Super Bowl ring. 1092 01:08:19,960 --> 01:08:24,720 Speaker 1: That's hilarious, lucky bastard. So I think they're actually a 1093 01:08:24,760 --> 01:08:31,479 Speaker 1: couple of University of Washington uh players. Uh, Vita Vella. Oh, 1094 01:08:31,960 --> 01:08:34,120 Speaker 1: he's he's hurt. No, No, he's coming back now, So 1095 01:08:34,120 --> 01:08:36,040 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be available for the game. And 1096 01:08:36,200 --> 01:08:41,320 Speaker 1: Jaden Mickens, the wide receiver. Okay, so University Washington has 1097 01:08:41,600 --> 01:08:48,479 Speaker 1: two and then uh, there is also um Dawn Buchanan 1098 01:08:48,520 --> 01:08:53,120 Speaker 1: remember him. He he was a Washington State UH Cougar. 1099 01:08:53,240 --> 01:08:55,200 Speaker 1: He was a first round picked by the Cardinals. He 1100 01:08:55,320 --> 01:08:58,200 Speaker 1: kind of flamed out because he's in between guy as 1101 01:08:58,200 --> 01:09:01,840 Speaker 1: a linebacker and safety. But he flamed out after the 1102 01:09:01,880 --> 01:09:05,000 Speaker 1: transition of Bruce Arians leaving the ares on the Cardinals 1103 01:09:05,040 --> 01:09:07,439 Speaker 1: and so guests who picked him up Bruce Arians, and 1104 01:09:07,479 --> 01:09:10,720 Speaker 1: so he is he is actually out there, um, And 1105 01:09:10,800 --> 01:09:14,000 Speaker 1: I think that leaves one more And I'm trying to 1106 01:09:14,040 --> 01:09:17,160 Speaker 1: remember it off the top of my head without without 1107 01:09:17,200 --> 01:09:19,280 Speaker 1: looking it up, but I don't know if I'm going 1108 01:09:19,360 --> 01:09:22,040 Speaker 1: to be able to to do it there. I can't 1109 01:09:22,080 --> 01:09:25,840 Speaker 1: remember who the fifth player is. No, that's it. That's 1110 01:09:25,840 --> 01:09:28,679 Speaker 1: all five. That's all five because there's two Washington players, 1111 01:09:29,040 --> 01:09:32,760 Speaker 1: one from Washington State, Ronald Jones, and then Gronk. That's it. 1112 01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:35,800 Speaker 1: That's it. That's all the Pac twelve representation in the 1113 01:09:35,840 --> 01:09:41,080 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. I definitely do not feel good about that. Um. 1114 01:09:41,960 --> 01:09:44,599 Speaker 1: All right, hold on, hold on, hold on, Okay, let's 1115 01:09:44,640 --> 01:09:47,840 Speaker 1: see how many Oh I'm gonna pull up their roster 1116 01:09:48,280 --> 01:09:52,080 Speaker 1: right now, Let's see how many sec players.

But here's the thing, 1151 01:12:08,360 --> 01:12:13,000 Speaker 1: here's the catch. Do not share the phone number with people. 1152 01:12:13,600 --> 01:12:16,720 Speaker 1: Make them listen to the episode and get it for themselves. 1153 01:12:16,720 --> 01:12:18,960 Speaker 1: Do not share the phone number. You can tell them 1154 01:12:19,000 --> 01:12:21,640 Speaker 1: that there's an easter Egg in the show, but do 1155 01:12:21,920 --> 01:12:26,240 Speaker 1: not just outright explicitly give it to them. Make them 1156 01:12:26,280 --> 01:12:30,880 Speaker 1: come earn it like you had to come earn it. Um, 1157 01:12:30,920 --> 01:12:34,200 Speaker 1: so I guess the last thing we have up Ralph 1158 01:12:34,560 --> 01:12:39,080 Speaker 1: is what the basketball? Yeah? Yeah, because I just had 1159 01:12:39,120 --> 01:12:40,360 Speaker 1: a couple of things I wanted to touch on, and 1160 01:12:40,400 --> 01:12:43,719 Speaker 1: then we'll get more into the basketball scene in future episodes. 1161 01:12:43,880 --> 01:12:46,600 Speaker 1: There's a game that you don't want to miss. Um 1162 01:12:46,800 --> 01:12:50,400 Speaker 1: Saturday eight p m U c l A at usc 1163 01:12:51,400 --> 01:12:53,519 Speaker 1: This is this is big and I don't know if 1164 01:12:53,560 --> 01:12:55,680 Speaker 1: anybody really thought that this game was gonna matter as 1165 01:12:55,760 --> 01:12:58,840 Speaker 1: much at this point in the season as it does 1166 01:12:58,960 --> 01:13:00,600 Speaker 1: right now. But you're talking to out the number one 1167 01:13:00,600 --> 01:13:03,240 Speaker 1: and number two teams. There's only one ranked Pack twelve 1168 01:13:03,240 --> 01:13:06,880 Speaker 1: basketball team. There's the same number of ranked Pack twelve 1169 01:13:06,920 --> 01:13:09,120 Speaker 1: basketball teams as there are Pack twelve football players on 1170 01:13:09,120 --> 01:13:12,840 Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs roster. So that's not very fun. 1171 01:13:13,160 --> 01:13:16,040 Speaker 1: Because there's been a couple of really disappointing performances this year, 1172 01:13:16,520 --> 01:13:18,720 Speaker 1: namely from Arizona State, who a lot of people pick 1173 01:13:18,760 --> 01:13:21,479 Speaker 1: to win the conference. They're currently in ninth or something 1174 01:13:21,560 --> 01:13:24,360 Speaker 1: like that. UM and that's after winning a couple of 1175 01:13:24,360 --> 01:13:27,320 Speaker 1: games in a row, so they're really really uh big 1176 01:13:27,360 --> 01:13:30,760 Speaker 1: surprise is um U c l A playing at such 1177 01:13:30,800 --> 01:13:33,320 Speaker 1: a high level even though they lost Chris Smith to 1178 01:13:33,479 --> 01:13:36,120 Speaker 1: an a c L tear and USC is actually playing 1179 01:13:36,160 --> 01:13:38,000 Speaker 1: at a really high level as well. So these two 1180 01:13:38,000 --> 01:13:40,519 Speaker 1: are going head to head on Saturday. U c L 1181 01:13:40,560 --> 01:13:43,360 Speaker 1: as nine and one in conference as if today USC 1182 01:13:43,600 --> 01:13:46,679 Speaker 1: is seven and two. UM, and I think that's gonna 1183 01:13:46,720 --> 01:13:49,400 Speaker 1: be that, that's gonna that's gonna tell us a lot. 1184 01:13:49,520 --> 01:13:52,799 Speaker 1: I feel like about whether either one of these teams 1185 01:13:52,960 --> 01:13:54,479 Speaker 1: is you know, if it's a close game, then we'll 1186 01:13:54,479 --> 01:13:57,080 Speaker 1: know that both can either play or not play. UM. 1187 01:13:57,120 --> 01:13:58,680 Speaker 1: But if one team blows the other out, then I 1188 01:13:58,720 --> 01:14:00,559 Speaker 1: think we'll know who the favorite is. Through the through 1189 01:14:00,560 --> 01:14:03,719 Speaker 1: the end of the year. H in the conference, COVID 1190 01:14:03,800 --> 01:14:06,920 Speaker 1: is still pretty much ruining everything. So it's hard to 1191 01:14:06,920 --> 01:14:10,320 Speaker 1: take the stands seriously as is because some games some 1192 01:14:10,360 --> 01:14:12,800 Speaker 1: teams have only played eight conference games while others have 1193 01:14:12,840 --> 01:14:15,800 Speaker 1: played eleven or twelve. UM. But yeah, I just wanted 1194 01:14:15,840 --> 01:14:17,280 Speaker 1: to I wanted to give a shout out to u 1195 01:14:17,320 --> 01:14:19,000 Speaker 1: c L A, and then I wanted to get your 1196 01:14:19,040 --> 01:14:23,519 Speaker 1: take on UM Arizona State because they had brought in 1197 01:14:24,200 --> 01:14:27,240 Speaker 1: UM three top fifteen recruiting classes in a row, and 1198 01:14:27,280 --> 01:14:30,040 Speaker 1: here they are trying not to finish the last in 1199 01:14:30,080 --> 01:14:33,080 Speaker 1: the Pact twelve with Bobby Hurley at coach, would you 1200 01:14:33,120 --> 01:14:38,439 Speaker 1: consider this hot seat here? No, I would not consider 1201 01:14:38,479 --> 01:14:40,360 Speaker 1: it a hot seat. Hear they went to the tournament 1202 01:14:40,479 --> 01:14:44,760 Speaker 1: last year? They probably would have Yeah, yeah, yeah, they 1203 01:14:44,760 --> 01:14:48,920 Speaker 1: would have gone to the tournament. But the issue, Okay, 1204 01:14:48,920 --> 01:14:53,000 Speaker 1: so I kind of give coaches some coaches is some 1205 01:14:53,040 --> 01:14:56,400 Speaker 1: coaches a mulligan for this season, and some of them 1206 01:14:56,400 --> 01:15:01,880 Speaker 1: are inexplicable. Look at John Calipari at Kentucky. Some idiots 1207 01:15:01,880 --> 01:15:06,080 Speaker 1: are like, let's fire maybe Calipari is on the hot seat, 1208 01:15:06,360 --> 01:15:13,559 Speaker 1: Like what what? How? How would John Calipari? I know 1209 01:15:13,640 --> 01:15:15,160 Speaker 1: their team is like five and ten or five and 1210 01:15:15,200 --> 01:15:17,519 Speaker 1: eleven or something like that right now. This is an 1211 01:15:17,560 --> 01:15:22,200 Speaker 1: awful season for them, But how do you fire John Calipari? Like, 1212 01:15:22,280 --> 01:15:24,760 Speaker 1: come on, bro, He's one of national championship, played in 1213 01:15:24,920 --> 01:15:27,640 Speaker 1: another one, been to the final four a couple of 1214 01:15:27,640 --> 01:15:29,880 Speaker 1: times that they get like this is the guy you 1215 01:15:29,880 --> 01:15:34,400 Speaker 1: want to fire? Dude, stop stop. It's an outlier season, 1216 01:15:34,880 --> 01:15:38,679 Speaker 1: the same thing as what I see with the Arizona State. Yes, 1217 01:15:38,760 --> 01:15:42,320 Speaker 1: it's disappointing, but some of it is probably on the players. 1218 01:15:42,680 --> 01:15:44,760 Speaker 1: Some of it is on the pandemic and how they've 1219 01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:49,759 Speaker 1: adjusted I don't know, or or maybe the PAC twelve 1220 01:15:49,840 --> 01:15:51,760 Speaker 1: is better than people think. I think it is, but 1221 01:15:52,040 --> 01:15:54,200 Speaker 1: you don't know because they're not really playing out of 1222 01:15:54,240 --> 01:15:58,280 Speaker 1: conference games so so much so I don't know exactly 1223 01:15:58,280 --> 01:16:02,000 Speaker 1: how to score this battle. Yeah, I mean I I 1224 01:16:02,040 --> 01:16:03,760 Speaker 1: felt the same way about football, though, and you still 1225 01:16:03,760 --> 01:16:08,679 Speaker 1: saw people get fired, but you saw less people get 1226 01:16:08,760 --> 01:16:14,600 Speaker 1: get fired. I mean Auburn firing Gus Moult Miles on 1227 01:16:14,880 --> 01:16:18,320 Speaker 1: was I think that's gonna be looked back as a 1228 01:16:18,439 --> 01:16:22,400 Speaker 1: pure idiocy, not not even that Brian Harrison won't be 1229 01:16:22,439 --> 01:16:26,400 Speaker 1: successful there. But you paid like was was gust Miles 1230 01:16:26,479 --> 01:16:31,559 Speaker 1: on twenty almost thirty million dollars bad to like fire 1231 01:16:31,600 --> 01:16:36,040 Speaker 1: him during a pandemic? Like? Was was he that bad? Yeah? 1232 01:16:36,280 --> 01:16:38,120 Speaker 1: I don't think it was thirty million dollars bad for 1233 01:16:38,200 --> 01:16:41,360 Speaker 1: him and his assistance. I didn't think so, I guess, 1234 01:16:41,479 --> 01:16:43,160 Speaker 1: uh yeah. I mean, well, we'll see how things play 1235 01:16:43,200 --> 01:16:46,360 Speaker 1: out this week. That there's you're they're reaching no coming 1236 01:16:46,400 --> 01:16:48,760 Speaker 1: back territory, so we'll know by the end of this week. 1237 01:16:48,760 --> 01:16:51,240 Speaker 1: We'll talk some more basketball in next week's show, but 1238 01:16:51,240 --> 01:16:53,360 Speaker 1: I did want to touch on one more thing before 1239 01:16:53,360 --> 01:16:55,800 Speaker 1: we let basketball go, because I think it's gonna be 1240 01:16:55,800 --> 01:16:58,240 Speaker 1: something that we talked about a lot in the upcoming weeks. 1241 01:16:59,360 --> 01:17:03,120 Speaker 1: Over the last couple of years, as ESPN has sort 1242 01:17:03,120 --> 01:17:07,040 Speaker 1: of had a battle with University of Arizona over whether 1243 01:17:07,080 --> 01:17:11,120 Speaker 1: they're reporting was correct about DeAndre Eton accepting a hundred 1244 01:17:11,160 --> 01:17:16,160 Speaker 1: thousand dollars um and Mark Schleibaugh uh had a really 1245 01:17:16,160 --> 01:17:17,920 Speaker 1: had it out with the University of Arizona fans over 1246 01:17:17,960 --> 01:17:20,799 Speaker 1: the last couple of years. They believe he got everything wrong. 1247 01:17:21,240 --> 01:17:25,880 Speaker 1: He basically left Twitter altogether because you have a fans 1248 01:17:25,920 --> 01:17:28,200 Speaker 1: would just be on him every time he had anything 1249 01:17:28,200 --> 01:17:30,960 Speaker 1: to say about anything, and a lot of people thought 1250 01:17:31,000 --> 01:17:33,840 Speaker 1: that universe this would end with University of Arizona potentially 1251 01:17:33,880 --> 01:17:39,920 Speaker 1: suing ESPN for damages, especially if the reporting was truly 1252 01:17:40,320 --> 01:17:45,760 Speaker 1: as um uh, I guess defamatory as you you have 1253 01:17:45,840 --> 01:17:50,040 Speaker 1: a fans have made it out to be. However, that's 1254 01:17:50,080 --> 01:17:56,960 Speaker 1: not what happened. Arizona didn't suit ESPN. Today, ESPN sued 1255 01:17:57,080 --> 01:18:06,160 Speaker 1: University of Arizona. That's that's funny. That's funny when people 1256 01:18:06,240 --> 01:18:08,760 Speaker 1: thought it was like that didn't go how you thought 1257 01:18:08,800 --> 01:18:11,160 Speaker 1: it was gonna go. Oh yeah, this definitely caught me 1258 01:18:11,200 --> 01:18:14,200 Speaker 1: off guard. ESPN filed a lawsuit against the Arizona Board 1259 01:18:14,200 --> 01:18:17,000 Speaker 1: of regents because they want to get their hands on 1260 01:18:17,040 --> 01:18:21,000 Speaker 1: the Notice of allegations because and and one of the 1261 01:18:21,000 --> 01:18:24,799 Speaker 1: theories on this UM Jason Sheer, who was seven reporter 1262 01:18:25,439 --> 01:18:28,799 Speaker 1: UM out of Tucson, who has been like just bashing 1263 01:18:28,840 --> 01:18:31,880 Speaker 1: Mark Slabaugh for the last two years. Uh and and 1264 01:18:31,960 --> 01:18:34,960 Speaker 1: has been probably the biggest defender of of Sean Miller 1265 01:18:35,600 --> 01:18:38,240 Speaker 1: um and has actually made some pretty good points along 1266 01:18:38,280 --> 01:18:42,479 Speaker 1: the way about whether espn is reporting was credible or not. 1267 01:18:42,600 --> 01:18:44,800 Speaker 1: And ESPN to this day has not been able to 1268 01:18:45,479 --> 01:18:48,479 Speaker 1: really back up some of the core claims that they 1269 01:18:48,520 --> 01:18:52,519 Speaker 1: made about DeAndre Ayton being compensated by the University of Arizona. 1270 01:18:53,160 --> 01:18:56,439 Speaker 1: He says that he believes ESPN filed the suit because 1271 01:18:56,439 --> 01:18:58,720 Speaker 1: it believes there was a phone call with Ayton and 1272 01:18:58,760 --> 01:19:02,400 Speaker 1: will do anything not to look stupid. So that's his 1273 01:19:02,520 --> 01:19:07,559 Speaker 1: theory is that ESPN is trying to go to back 1274 01:19:07,720 --> 01:19:12,600 Speaker 1: for their employee who broke this story. UM. And I 1275 01:19:12,680 --> 01:19:15,680 Speaker 1: guess what happens if you know what happens to you 1276 01:19:15,760 --> 01:19:20,480 Speaker 1: of a If there's information in this Notice of Allegations 1277 01:19:21,160 --> 01:19:24,879 Speaker 1: that actually does make the ESPN reporting look more credible, 1278 01:19:28,320 --> 01:19:32,280 Speaker 1: how bad would that be for the University of Arizona. 1279 01:19:32,800 --> 01:19:35,439 Speaker 1: Oh God, dude, that that would I don't know if 1280 01:19:35,479 --> 01:19:40,479 Speaker 1: there would be a worse situation for them. I mean, 1281 01:19:40,640 --> 01:19:42,639 Speaker 1: I don't know if there is there a worse one. 1282 01:19:43,160 --> 01:19:45,599 Speaker 1: I just my question is finding out that everything's true, 1283 01:19:45,840 --> 01:19:48,640 Speaker 1: our jobs on the line for both ESPN and you 1284 01:19:48,720 --> 01:19:54,920 Speaker 1: have a fire Marks Schlagball. If it came out there 1285 01:19:55,000 --> 01:19:59,439 Speaker 1: was never there was never anything with DeAndre Ayton receiving 1286 01:19:59,439 --> 01:20:03,439 Speaker 1: any type of compensation. Would you be forced to fire 1287 01:20:03,520 --> 01:20:06,920 Speaker 1: your reporter for having us faulty source and standing by 1288 01:20:06,920 --> 01:20:12,439 Speaker 1: that source through a lot of controversy, Yes, they would 1289 01:20:12,520 --> 01:20:17,439 Speaker 1: have to fire him, Like, there's no way that you 1290 01:20:17,600 --> 01:20:20,320 Speaker 1: can't fire him if you find out that that's true, 1291 01:20:20,920 --> 01:20:22,680 Speaker 1: no way. We are in the end game now. Then 1292 01:20:22,800 --> 01:20:25,840 Speaker 1: it'll be interesting to track this is as we go 1293 01:20:26,000 --> 01:20:29,880 Speaker 1: and see if if ESPN is successful in in their lawsuit, 1294 01:20:29,920 --> 01:20:33,439 Speaker 1: which I'm I'm assuming they will be. I mean, why 1295 01:20:35,040 --> 01:20:39,280 Speaker 1: you think that there's any way that they can't fire him, 1296 01:20:39,360 --> 01:20:41,559 Speaker 1: that they can't fire March Slaba, or that this doesn't 1297 01:20:41,640 --> 01:20:48,400 Speaker 1: end up with like shunkin on a plate. Um, I guess, 1298 01:20:48,920 --> 01:20:51,400 Speaker 1: I get. I guess if it comes down to like 1299 01:20:51,800 --> 01:20:54,960 Speaker 1: Mark slabs editors know his source. I'm assuming they have 1300 01:20:55,000 --> 01:20:57,760 Speaker 1: to know his source and they believe in his reporting 1301 01:20:57,880 --> 01:21:00,639 Speaker 1: to the point where they would file this lawsuit because 1302 01:21:00,640 --> 01:21:03,639 Speaker 1: if not, I think you just quietly let it go. Um. 1303 01:21:03,680 --> 01:21:06,080 Speaker 1: What's interesting to me is so many people had suggested 1304 01:21:06,080 --> 01:21:09,439 Speaker 1: that that you have a sue ESPN and that never happened. 1305 01:21:10,479 --> 01:21:13,439 Speaker 1: So I think that probably Embolden's ESPN to dig further 1306 01:21:13,479 --> 01:21:19,280 Speaker 1: into what's going on. Yeah. Yeah, they're they're not gonna 1307 01:21:19,479 --> 01:21:25,519 Speaker 1: let this go. I'm going to let it go, and 1308 01:21:25,640 --> 01:21:31,760 Speaker 1: neither is UM the u of A. They're both going 1309 01:21:31,800 --> 01:21:35,479 Speaker 1: to be going after this like hard as possible, Like 1310 01:21:35,560 --> 01:21:37,720 Speaker 1: there there's no way that this is, you know, just 1311 01:21:38,120 --> 01:21:44,439 Speaker 1: a happy ending, no way, No how I guess, I 1312 01:21:44,479 --> 01:21:48,080 Speaker 1: guess so they they you know, and it is. Um 1313 01:21:48,120 --> 01:21:51,200 Speaker 1: it's an open records request that was I think denied, 1314 01:21:51,320 --> 01:21:53,920 Speaker 1: and then that's what led to the lawsuit because what 1315 01:21:53,960 --> 01:21:57,920 Speaker 1: Mark Schlaba asked the University of Arizona for was a 1316 01:21:58,000 --> 01:22:02,680 Speaker 1: copy of the notice of allegation, UM, and that's it. 1317 01:22:02,760 --> 01:22:06,040 Speaker 1: And he said that he would pay for any fees 1318 01:22:06,160 --> 01:22:09,120 Speaker 1: to copy and and mail all that stuff. He did 1319 01:22:09,160 --> 01:22:16,360 Speaker 1: this back in October, and UM, they they denied it. 1320 01:22:16,800 --> 01:22:21,160 Speaker 1: They sent a letter UM saying that the University of 1321 01:22:21,160 --> 01:22:22,880 Speaker 1: Arizona has requested to have the n C double A 1322 01:22:22,960 --> 01:22:25,479 Speaker 1: enforcement matter referred to the n C double A s 1323 01:22:25,560 --> 01:22:28,120 Speaker 1: I A r P process. As a result of that request, 1324 01:22:28,120 --> 01:22:30,280 Speaker 1: there remains a possibility of additional investigation by the n 1325 01:22:30,280 --> 01:22:32,360 Speaker 1: C double A. Therefore, at this time, in accordance with 1326 01:22:32,439 --> 01:22:34,439 Speaker 1: n C double A by laws, University is not releasing 1327 01:22:34,479 --> 01:22:36,639 Speaker 1: the notice of allegations as it is in the best 1328 01:22:36,680 --> 01:22:39,519 Speaker 1: interest for the state for any additional investigation to be 1329 01:22:39,560 --> 01:22:42,960 Speaker 1: completed before the disclosures are made. Um So the the 1330 01:22:43,160 --> 01:22:45,960 Speaker 1: university is using the excuse that this might not all 1331 01:22:46,000 --> 01:22:48,599 Speaker 1: be over yet, and that's why they're not turning things over. 1332 01:22:53,080 --> 01:22:58,600 Speaker 1: This is okay, and all of this right, yeah, I 1333 01:22:58,720 --> 01:23:02,280 Speaker 1: think think about this, All of this is for what 1334 01:23:02,720 --> 01:23:08,680 Speaker 1: a victimless crime, like we have like we are like 1335 01:23:08,760 --> 01:23:12,639 Speaker 1: all of this noise, all of this chatter, this notice 1336 01:23:12,680 --> 01:23:17,920 Speaker 1: of alegate, this whole thing is all based upon just 1337 01:23:18,200 --> 01:23:23,000 Speaker 1: the fact that this is a victim less crime. Like 1338 01:23:23,240 --> 01:23:29,320 Speaker 1: who was actually injured by if DeAndre Jordan got got money, 1339 01:23:30,400 --> 01:23:33,120 Speaker 1: Uh nobody, Because I mean you saw what happened to 1340 01:23:33,160 --> 01:23:35,160 Speaker 1: the University of Arizona in the first round, I wouldn't 1341 01:23:35,200 --> 01:23:41,560 Speaker 1: say that. Uh yeah, I wouldn't say that University of 1342 01:23:41,600 --> 01:23:45,760 Speaker 1: Arizona overly benefited from their incredible recruiting classes under Sean 1343 01:23:45,840 --> 01:23:51,360 Speaker 1: Miller the last few years. So maybe it should be 1344 01:23:51,680 --> 01:23:55,720 Speaker 1: you University of Arizona either UH trying to get some 1345 01:23:55,760 --> 01:24:00,040 Speaker 1: money back from their coach or trying to get a 1346 01:24:00,080 --> 01:24:08,680 Speaker 1: refund from DeAndre eight either either way, UM No, I 1347 01:24:08,720 --> 01:24:10,000 Speaker 1: was just gonna say that they're gonna have to get 1348 01:24:10,000 --> 01:24:12,800 Speaker 1: that from Puma. They thought it would be Nike. You know, 1349 01:24:12,880 --> 01:24:14,639 Speaker 1: there's a lot of people thought that that's why DeAndre 1350 01:24:14,800 --> 01:24:17,160 Speaker 1: Ayden went to UH went to University of Arizona because 1351 01:24:17,160 --> 01:24:20,040 Speaker 1: he went from a Nike sponsored UM high school team 1352 01:24:20,040 --> 01:24:22,880 Speaker 1: in Hillcrest to u of A and then Puma ended 1353 01:24:22,920 --> 01:24:25,960 Speaker 1: up snaking him. So maybe Puma could settle these debts, 1354 01:24:28,280 --> 01:24:31,160 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. They they might be able 1355 01:24:31,200 --> 01:24:33,400 Speaker 1: to do that may have to be who has to 1356 01:24:33,439 --> 01:24:36,360 Speaker 1: do it, but you guys.
