1
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:15,400
Speaker 1: Paper pops, multiple paper pops to lead the show. I

2
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:18,160
Speaker 1: actually want to break some news for you guys. Yeah,

3
00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:20,079
Speaker 1: I'm professional because I didn't tell the staff about it.

4
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:23,000
Speaker 1: That's okay, we don't need any elements. December twenty eighth,

5
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:27,040
Speaker 1: three point thirty pm Eastern Standard time. Clear your schedules,

6
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:30,200
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen. The pop Tart Bowl will once again

7
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 1: emanate from Orlando, Florida. There you go, we have a

8
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:35,479
Speaker 1: kickoff time for the Pop Tart Bowl. As you know,

9
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:38,120
Speaker 1: we lost a good pop tart last year at that game.

10
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:40,839
Speaker 1: But don't worry. Two to a pack, as Kansas State

11
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:42,840
Speaker 1: was told when they tried to book the pop Tart

12
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 1: for their celebration, and we're told, well, he's dead. You

13
00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 1: ate him. He can't be there. But don't worry. We'll

14
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 1: have a mascot next year because there are two pop

15
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 1: tarts to a pack. So with the more serious stuff

16
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 1: out of the way, welcome in lay kick is live, jam,

17
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:58,520
Speaker 1: packed high type a festive downtown Nashville, Tennessee. CMA Fest

18
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 1: is going on all over the place here a true story.

19
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 1: We couldn't get food delivered to the building today, so

20
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 1: we are surviving on pop tarts actually lunchables, and I

21
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: had a bunch of crackers. So men have survived far worse.

22
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,680
Speaker 1: I think we'll make it. The Hall of Fame, however,

23
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,400
Speaker 1: has serious issues and we need to talk about it

24
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 1: because I think I probably danced around this three or

25
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: four times in the past. I never injected it into

26
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,400
Speaker 1: the show. But we got a real problem in the

27
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,399
Speaker 1: College Football Hall of Fame. We've got big questions for

28
00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:35,919
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty four season, staff changes, staff sizes, even

29
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 1: is that about to really fundamentally be altered in the

30
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,959
Speaker 1: immediate future of college football? And does it matter or

31
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,679
Speaker 1: might I have a very simple solution tonight, bold but simple.

32
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 1: Someone someone's calling a friend of the program into question

33
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 1: regarding Dion Sanders in Colorado. So I'm going to talk

34
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 1: about that. We got the LSU mood Tracker on the

35
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 1: show tonight. We got a jam packed show. Okay, as

36
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 1: we do every time we go live. They're watching us

37
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 1: in Reidsville, North Carolina, Fontana, California, Saratoga Springs, Utah, and

38
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 1: bo Az, Alabama. Thank you guys so much for making

39
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 1: everything that we get to do here for a living possible.

40
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: Appreciate you guys, so much. Okay, here we go. I

41
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 1: can't believe we're leading the show with this, but it's

42
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 1: public service and it is our job as America's college

43
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: football show. Sometimes it's our job to roll up our sleeves,

44
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 1: get into the weeds and get our hands dirty. And

45
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: tonight we get our hands dirty. Colin. Here's a good

46
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,799
Speaker 1: endpoint for you. The College Football Hall of Fame is

47
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,959
Speaker 1: a wonderful idea. Love college football. There are a lot

48
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 1: of good players, and good coaches and good people who

49
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 1: have come through this sport, and they deserve to be recognized.

50
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:48,799
Speaker 1: We've got no issue with that, right right, right, Okay,

51
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 1: we don't have a problem with the Hall of Fame.

52
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,080
Speaker 1: We don't have a problem with having a very high

53
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,519
Speaker 1: bar for which you have to clear to get into

54
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 1: that Hall of Fame. No problem with any of that. However,

55
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 1: I do have a big problem with what the College

56
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 1: Football Hall of Fame has become. Not as an entity.

57
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 1: Love it and love the folks down there. We've done

58
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 1: our show from there twice, so I love all that.

59
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 1: It's not them, the fine folks and the staff down there. Notwithstanding,

60
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:20,080
Speaker 1: it's the criteria that, for whatever reason, was constructed in

61
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 1: order to make it into that thing. That's the problem.

62
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,920
Speaker 1: It's another reminder. This week was another reminder that the

63
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 1: rules are a disaster. So the nominees for this year's

64
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 1: class got I guess announced this week. Saban and Meyer

65
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 1: headlined the class. Nick Saban, Urban Meyer. Something in me

66
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 1: tells me they'll both get in. But it's not about

67
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 1: who's gonna make it. That's the crime of this. All

68
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 1: we should be should be celebrating. I should be celebrating

69
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 1: and enjoying names from the past who are being enshrined

70
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 1: rightfully so in the College Football Hall of Fame. But

71
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 1: instead it's it's this punch to the chest cavity again

72
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 1: of how screwed up the voting process is and the

73
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 1: admissions process is for the College Football Hall of Fame.

74
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 1: It started last year. It started last year because you

75
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 1: start to realize Mike Leach passed away, and Mike Leach

76
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: will never be a Hall of Famer as the rules

77
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,159
Speaker 1: are currently constructed, He'll never be a Hall of Famer.

78
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 1: And he's not alone. You know who else is ineligible

79
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,600
Speaker 1: for the Hall of Fame College Football Hall of Fame

80
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 1: based on the current criteria. Howard Schnellenberger, who truthfully, I

81
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 1: assumed was in until yesterday when that was brought to

82
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:36,479
Speaker 1: my attention. Pete Carroll at USC Stetson. Bennett just made

83
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 1: history at Georgia. Not gonna get in. Nick Chubb top

84
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 1: five sec rusher of all time, Sorry, Trevor Lawrence Clemson, Nope.

85
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 1: Colt Brennan put Hawaii football on the map for a generation. No,

86
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,359
Speaker 1: Julio Jones at Alabama who never heard of him, Probably

87
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 1: gonna be in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Not

88
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 1: good enough for the college football Hall of Fame. Why?

89
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 1: Because of stupid rules. That's why I that was borderline groping.

90
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,919
Speaker 1: Need do that. I appreciate rules. It may sound to

91
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 1: you if you don't know me any better, like I'm

92
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 1: someone who likes to constantly lower the bar, and he

93
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 1: must be one of those people who likes to bend

94
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,159
Speaker 1: the rules. Hey, if you can't throw strikes, let's just

95
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: widen the plate. That's not me at all, that's not

96
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:19,480
Speaker 1: me at all, Quite the opposite. But but I am

97
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 1: a proponent of establishing logic based rules and then never

98
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: budget on him. And if you're not good enough, you're

99
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 1: not good enough. So it should be the same way

100
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 1: with college Football Hall of Fame. If you're not good enough,

101
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,039
Speaker 1: you're not good enough. Here's the thing, though, a lot

102
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 1: of those dudes are good enough. I think most of

103
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 1: you would agree with me on this. I didn't even

104
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 1: know how deep it went. Like I said, I knew

105
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 1: we had a leech problem last year because Mike Leach

106
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 1: passed away. And then all of a sudden you realized, wait,

107
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,920
Speaker 1: he can't be in the Hall of Fame. Why he's

108
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:49,839
Speaker 1: never going to be eligible for the Hall of Fame. Why?

109
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 1: And then and only then, I think a large majority

110
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 1: of us started to realize, oh, there are guidelines here.

111
00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 1: Like Unlike Major League Baseball, up pro sport, college football

112
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:06,920
Speaker 1: decided to put hard metrics as barometers on inclusion into

113
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 1: the college Football Hall of Fame, and as a result,

114
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:11,480
Speaker 1: a lot of people who clearly should be in the

115
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:13,159
Speaker 1: college Football Hall of Fame aren't going to be in

116
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 1: unless we get something done about this. And I'll address

117
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 1: that in a second. So Grishy interim producer. Grishy is

118
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 1: here because Jesse irresponsibly is on his honeymoon. Just the audacity,

119
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 1: by the way, the audacity we kid because we care,

120
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 1: do we have the criteria? That's what I was about

121
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,679
Speaker 1: to ask you before I got sidetracked with Jesse bashing

122
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:37,160
Speaker 1: the criteria. Listen to this if you're listening on podcasts.

123
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: Players must have been selected first team All American. A

124
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,480
Speaker 1: player becomes eligible ten years after their last college football season.

125
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 1: I got no problem with that, but they have to

126
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 1: have been a first team All Americans. So I want

127
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 1: you to think about that for a second. Post football

128
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 1: record as a citizen is also weighed, so you know,

129
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:56,799
Speaker 1: don't let us find bodies in your trunk. And also,

130
00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,360
Speaker 1: they must have played their last year of college football

131
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 1: within the last fifth years. That's for a player. So

132
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 1: Nick Chubb, for example, one of the best we've ever seen,

133
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 1: one of the best to ever do it in the

134
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,279
Speaker 1: history of the SEC. But he happens to exist in

135
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 1: the same time period as other really good running backs.

136
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 1: And so Nick Chubb wasn't a first team All American

137
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,239
Speaker 1: and because of that, you're not getting in Nick Chubb.

138
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 1: That's the long and short of it. For coaches, though,

139
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 1: I've got an even bigger beef because for coaches there

140
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 1: are two rules. I got a problem with. One. You

141
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 1: have to have coached at least ten years. Goodbye, Pete

142
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 1: Carroll and number two, you have to have at least

143
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 1: a sixty percent winning percentage over the course of your career.

144
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 1: I think if you don't know the sport of college

145
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 1: football any better, you may listen to that and you

146
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 1: may say, well, what's wrong with that? Sixty percent? That's

147
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 1: all that's all you have to win. Yeah, that's all

148
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 1: you have to win. Here's the problem. Not every program's Texas,

149
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 1: not every program's Clemson, not every program's Michigan. We very

150
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 1: clearly understand all of us watching or listening here, we

151
00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 1: all understand this is not the NFL. Everything is not

152
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 1: built in college sports to push everyone to the middle.

153
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 1: College football wasn't built to be college football the NFL.

154
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 1: You know, think about pro sports. The NFL exists for

155
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 1: one thing and one thing only, so it can be

156
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 1: a professional football league. Major League Baseball exists so it

157
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 1: can be a professional baseball league, NBA basketball, et cetera.

158
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 1: And that's all that. There's nothing else to it. It's

159
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 1: just that. And so they've got twenty eight thirty thirty

160
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 1: two thirty four teams in pro cities, and they have

161
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 1: in most sports, salary structures, and then they have a

162
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 1: draft structure and everything's built with competitive balance in mind,

163
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:44,319
Speaker 1: and there's nothing else. College sports used to just be universities,

164
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 1: and some of them are nine hundred years old and

165
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:49,479
Speaker 1: some of them are like ninety years old, and that's

166
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 1: a stretch, but you get what I'm saying there. Some

167
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,080
Speaker 1: of them decided to have athletic departments and some didn't.

168
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:59,479
Speaker 1: And the point is it's so discombobulated, and it's so unbalanced,

169
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,960
Speaker 1: and there's so many more teams in college sports. Nothing

170
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 1: is built on the foundation of equality in competitive college

171
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 1: athletics never has been financially or competitively, and those two

172
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 1: go hand in hand. So in college sports, you have

173
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:20,960
Speaker 1: hals and you have have nots, and to have programs,

174
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,959
Speaker 1: have palatial facilities, and they've got multiple donors who write

175
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 1: seven figure plus checks per year and you get to

176
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 1: basically buy whatever you want to up to and including

177
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 1: players now. And then there are other places where they

178
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 1: make sure you only use one paper plate per day

179
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:41,200
Speaker 1: in the mess hall because they're broke. If you coach

180
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,560
Speaker 1: at the latter and not the former, it's really hard

181
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 1: to win sixty percent of your games. So I ask

182
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 1: you this way, what if I popped Nick Saban down here?

183
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,840
Speaker 1: In Nashville, Tennessee. Saban, for whatever reason, just coaches Vanderbilt

184
00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:56,360
Speaker 1: his whole career. How they do him, I think Nick

185
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,839
Speaker 1: Saban's best ever. Do it how they do him? Maybe

186
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:04,959
Speaker 1: sixty percent? Maybe not. My point there is, if pro

187
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 1: sports don't even have these hard and fast metrics where

188
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,439
Speaker 1: it would make sense because everything is roughly on the

189
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 1: up and up and equal there, why would college football

190
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: be dumb enough to box themselves in by putting these numbers,

191
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 1: not arbitrary hard and fast numbers in it's unnecessary. We

192
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,280
Speaker 1: can look at a coach. We can look at Mike

193
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 1: Leach and see he's a fifty nine point seven percent

194
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:31,960
Speaker 1: winning percentage guy. That's the actual number. By the way,

195
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:36,319
Speaker 1: like needed one more game, he passes away, his interim

196
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 1: wins the bowl game. Had that been Leach, he'd be

197
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 1: at that sixty percent threshold. You're telling me that's the difference,

198
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:43,720
Speaker 1: and that dude being a Hall of famer and not

199
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 1: being a Hall of famer, Mike blanking Leech not a

200
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 1: Hall of famer. Tell me the story of offense in

201
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 1: college football since the two thousands without including Mike Leach. Eh,

202
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:56,880
Speaker 1: you can't do it. But he's not a Hall of

203
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,760
Speaker 1: Famer because someone on a calculator decided he's not. And

204
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,840
Speaker 1: so Pete Carroll, Pete Carroll's at USC. Tell me the

205
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:06,720
Speaker 1: story of college football in the two thousands. Without Pete Carroll,

206
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 1: you can't. You can't. But because he wasn't at USC

207
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:13,080
Speaker 1: ten years, because he was actually good enough to become

208
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 1: an NFL head coach, he's not good enough for the

209
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 1: College Football Hall of Fame. That's insane. So here's the

210
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 1: thing about rules. The rules for the College Football Hall

211
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 1: of Fame were not discovered on stone tablets somewhere. We

212
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 1: don't just have to blindly adhere to them. You made them.

213
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 1: The College Football Hall of Fame is not even that old.

214
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,440
Speaker 1: It hasn't been around that long. So the group that

215
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 1: sat around a table and decided on this nonsense still

216
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:41,560
Speaker 1: has the power to undo it. I would humbly suggest

217
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 1: you need to exercise that power, because I don't know

218
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 1: many people in the room who look at Mike Leach,

219
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,679
Speaker 1: for example, and say, yeah, that's that's a good thing

220
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 1: we kept him out of there. What are we doing

221
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:56,479
Speaker 1: if you've got a Hall of Fame and the criteria

222
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,480
Speaker 1: does not warrant Mike Leach getting into the Hall of Fame.

223
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 1: You don't have a college football Hall of Fame. You've

224
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 1: just got a random collection of people, that's what you have.

225
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 1: So negative start to the show tonight, hopefully a positive

226
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: ending because I'm not even sure this is opinion. It's

227
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 1: just obvious what the right thing to do here is.

228
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 1: And I don't even mean grant him special inclusion. You

229
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 1: don't have to give preferential treatment to Mike Leach. Just

230
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:27,440
Speaker 1: do away with your ridiculous sixty winning percentage number that

231
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 1: is necessary for a head coach. You don't need it,

232
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,559
Speaker 1: is my point. Major League Baseball Hall of Fame voters

233
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:39,199
Speaker 1: do not have a minimum baseline of three hundred as

234
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 1: a batting average, but they understand in their minds, Hey,

235
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 1: that number pretty significant. Five hundred home runs. No one

236
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,880
Speaker 1: ever wrote that down officially, but people just kind of

237
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 1: among themselves decided, now, five hundred, it's pretty solid number

238
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 1: that we can delineate great all time power hitters versus

239
00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,959
Speaker 1: really good ones. You don't have to write it now,

240
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 1: it's just understood. If it's really that universal and that clear,

241
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 1: it'll be understood. So I don't know exactly what the

242
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,960
Speaker 1: process here is we were looking at the website today

243
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 1: for the Hall of Fame. There was a number and

244
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,680
Speaker 1: I love you guys too much to have called you

245
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,560
Speaker 1: live on the air, but I hope we get some

246
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 1: movement on this because it's insane as it currently stands.

247
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,680
Speaker 1: Let's move on. That's one of the biggest questions in

248
00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:29,080
Speaker 1: college football right now. I've got four more here that

249
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,679
Speaker 1: actually have to do with this year. I appreciate you

250
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:35,960
Speaker 1: guys being tuned in live. If you are up, stay, stay,

251
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,320
Speaker 1: thank you. Just make sure you subscribe to the channel.

252
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:39,680
Speaker 1: I had one of you hit me the other day

253
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 1: and say, I thought I was subscribed to this channel.

254
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:44,839
Speaker 1: I've been watching the show for three years and then

255
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 1: I checked and I wasn't subscribed. Yes, I know a

256
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 1: lot of you aren't. Just over fifty percent of our

257
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 1: viewers and listeners are subscribed. It's free, it costs you nothing,

258
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 1: there is no string attached to it. You don't get

259
00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,439
Speaker 1: spammed in your email. It just helps us. So make

260
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:02,800
Speaker 1: sure check even if you think you are, check and

261
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 1: make sure you're subscribed. Okay, here we go. Some of

262
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,440
Speaker 1: the biggest questions in college football this upcoming twenty twenty

263
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,319
Speaker 1: four season. We just keep going down this list. I

264
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 1: got like a million of them. For example, which Big

265
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 1: Ten offenses will see the most improvement this year? I

266
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 1: think it may surprise you if I were to do

267
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 1: a little pop quiz and hey, everyone gather around here.

268
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 1: Big ten offenses last year? Which one led the entire

269
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 1: conference in points per game? Penn State? Right? No, couldn't

270
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:38,080
Speaker 1: be Yes, it was Penn State points per game last year,

271
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,880
Speaker 1: number one in the Big Ten. Stats lie to you

272
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,320
Speaker 1: all the time. Never let your mem tell you otherwise.

273
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 1: Stats lie to you all the time. That's when mind

274
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 1: never told me that. Me and Ma told me. Stats

275
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 1: lie to you all the time. You better have some

276
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 1: context behind it. And here's the context. I took myself

277
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 1: to State College to watch them play Michigan and their

278
00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 1: offense was non existent. I took myself to Columbus and

279
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 1: I watched them play Ohio State. Their offense was non existent. So,

280
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,040
Speaker 1: Penn State, are they going to be that much better

281
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,280
Speaker 1: this year? Drew Aller, You know, talking to some of

282
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 1: the NFL guys, they're still sky high on Drew Holler.

283
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 1: So they weren't detourred by last year points per game?

284
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 1: What do we see this year? Not just points per

285
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 1: game in the big games. What do we see? Because

286
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: they got shut down in those two big games last year.

287
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 1: They brought Colton Nicky in the offensive coordinator. Is that

288
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 1: really the magic button? I wonder that. I wonder At Nebraska,

289
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,080
Speaker 1: for example, they were twelfth in the Big Ten and

290
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 1: points per game last year, horrific passing numbers. They were

291
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 1: terrible throwing the ball. I think they could only get better.

292
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 1: And that's with starting probably a true freshman in Dylan

293
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 1: Ryola this year. If not eventually or if not immediately eventually,

294
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 1: how good can they be? You know, we believe big

295
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 1: time in Nebraska's defense, So how good can their offense be?

296
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 1: It'll be improved. How much has it improved? And Wisconsin,

297
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:02,960
Speaker 1: you know, Wisconsin, here's what's them. So Paul Christ and

298
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:07,320
Speaker 1: his staff are out because they weren't revolutionary enough, they

299
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:11,080
Speaker 1: weren't modernized enough. They didn't score enough. Right. I didn't

300
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 1: disagree necessarily, So they brought in Luke Fickle. He brought

301
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 1: in Phil Longo, the offensive coordinator. You know, going into

302
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 1: the bowl game last year, they were about a field

303
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 1: goal per game worse in points per game than they

304
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 1: had been the previous year. Just a little hidden stat

305
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 1: no one wanted to focus on at the end of

306
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 1: last season. You know, year one learning curve, which I'll

307
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 1: grant you, I'll give you a mulligan on that. Well

308
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 1: in year two. That's why we talk about you in

309
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,200
Speaker 1: this context. You just brought in Tyler van Dyck from

310
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:45,120
Speaker 1: Miami in the transfer portal. I completely believe in the

311
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 1: coaching staff as a whole and their ability to not

312
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 1: only evaluate but then develop. How much difference do we

313
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 1: see year one to year two? So I'd look at

314
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 1: Penn State, I'd look at Nebraska. I'm curious about Wisconsin.

315
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,880
Speaker 1: I'm curious about Iowa. That's another place where Tim Lester

316
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 1: is the offensive coordinator. There now feels like there's nowhere

317
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:04,280
Speaker 1: to go but up? How much? How much up do

318
00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:09,160
Speaker 1: we get? Next question, let's go to Knoxville for a second.

319
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,639
Speaker 1: What kind of impact does Niko iam Aliaba have this

320
00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,680
Speaker 1: year at Tennessee. You think back a couple of years ago,

321
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:19,159
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two, Tennessee felt like they were contending for

322
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 1: a playoff spot because they were. They were eleven and

323
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 1: two two seasons ago, and then last season it was

324
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:26,919
Speaker 1: a bridge season. We kind of called it that in

325
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:30,400
Speaker 1: the preseason and it ended up being that. So Joe

326
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:33,399
Speaker 1: Milton was the quarterback director. Colin and I and Jesse

327
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,400
Speaker 1: actually were at their first game. It's the only game

328
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,679
Speaker 1: we've been to together. They played Virginia. They smoked them

329
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:43,200
Speaker 1: over here in Nissan Stadium, and so it felt good

330
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 1: to start off with. But over time you felt this

331
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 1: season feels a little hollow compared to what we were

332
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 1: last year. Okay, so they were eleven and two two

333
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 1: years ago. They go nine and four. Last year. Here's

334
00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:57,399
Speaker 1: the harsh reality. Points per game, they went from first

335
00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 1: to thirty fifth yards per game, first to nineteenth pass

336
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:05,919
Speaker 1: yards per game, fifth to fifty first. I think Niko

337
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 1: i Amaliav is going to be a star in this sport.

338
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:09,880
Speaker 1: And I don't think you'll have to wait a couple

339
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 1: of years. I think he will be that this year.

340
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 1: That dude will end up being a household name in

341
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 1: college football. And you don't play a long time in

342
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:19,720
Speaker 1: college football, so you've got to be really good, really fast.

343
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,680
Speaker 1: He's got it. We were over there about a month

344
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:24,960
Speaker 1: and a half ago, and whether it's on the record

345
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,200
Speaker 1: or off the record, everybody you talk to around that building,

346
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 1: there are certain things you want to hear from them,

347
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,439
Speaker 1: the least of which is usually the physical stuff, because

348
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 1: people don't miss a whole lot on evaluating quarterbacks these days. Physically,

349
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:41,440
Speaker 1: there are too many reps that you get your eyes on.

350
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 1: There are too many people who get their eyes on

351
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:47,360
Speaker 1: those reps. It's too high profile a position. So normally,

352
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:50,399
Speaker 1: if a guy is a consensus five star from the

353
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:53,520
Speaker 1: physical side of things, he's going to be that. But

354
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:56,320
Speaker 1: the neck up, the mental side, the intangibles, that's what

355
00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 1: you want to hear about. And especially in the nil era,

356
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,080
Speaker 1: where that sort of thing for a guy who doesn't

357
00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:04,920
Speaker 1: have his head on straight could really discombobulate and throw

358
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,879
Speaker 1: things off the rails a little bit. It hasn't doesn't

359
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,440
Speaker 1: sound like it's happened with him at all. So if

360
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 1: you've got from the neck up things in order, and

361
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,680
Speaker 1: from the neck down you are just what God made

362
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:18,960
Speaker 1: you physically and what you have worked to perfect in

363
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,719
Speaker 1: your craft, you could do some really special things. What

364
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 1: offense would you rather be in? If you're a five

365
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:27,720
Speaker 1: star talent with a five star head on your shoulders

366
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 1: and you're six six, two fifteen or two twenty at quarterback,

367
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 1: I could throw the ball of mile, where would you

368
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 1: rather play? Hendon Hooker lit it up two years ago,

369
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,439
Speaker 1: and it was funny because when you listen to the

370
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,320
Speaker 1: NFL draft types talk, they were talking about Hendon Hooker

371
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:45,280
Speaker 1: and they were some people were trying to talk about

372
00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:47,399
Speaker 1: what he'd do at the next level. The NFL draft

373
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 1: types behind the scenes were saying, dude, Heypel is squeezing

374
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 1: every ounce of his potential out of him right now. Well,

375
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:58,879
Speaker 1: what that told me was not think about the drop

376
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,120
Speaker 1: off that will come when he leaves. Yeah, there may

377
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:04,440
Speaker 1: be some drop off. What that told me was Hendon

378
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:07,400
Speaker 1: Hooker was never a transcendent type athlete. He was never

379
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:11,600
Speaker 1: a five star talent. What happens when Hypel gets one? Well,

380
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:14,679
Speaker 1: he's got one. He's got one. Now, how good is

381
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:16,119
Speaker 1: he going to be? One of the big questions in

382
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:21,200
Speaker 1: college football this year which transfer quarterback? Which of those

383
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 1: transfer quarterbacks is going to have the biggest impact this year?

384
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:27,280
Speaker 1: Because there are several of them, and some of these, candidly,

385
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:29,760
Speaker 1: I think you may have forgotten about. You probably remember

386
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 1: Dylan Gabriel went up to Oregon, And that may be

387
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 1: the answer. In fact, that's the answer I would come

388
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:37,399
Speaker 1: to right off the bat, like Dylan Gabriel could win

389
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,679
Speaker 1: the Heisman at Oregon and that would not surprise me.

390
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:42,320
Speaker 1: So he's in position, he's been plugged into a great

391
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 1: system and a great program up there. Do you remember

392
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:50,119
Speaker 1: who Duke picked up? Though? Do you remember Malik Murphy

393
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,879
Speaker 1: left Texas and went to Duke? Manny Diaz is the

394
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:56,680
Speaker 1: new coach there. Malik Murphy, you know, a couple springs

395
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,640
Speaker 1: ago at Texas, he goes off and all these schools

396
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 1: come back after him behind the scenes, and he stays

397
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:05,320
Speaker 1: at Texas. Well, then he transferred and he went to Duke,

398
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,560
Speaker 1: and you hadn't heard much else about him. Well, that's

399
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,720
Speaker 1: because Duke doesn't get talked a whole lot about this

400
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,879
Speaker 1: time of year. But this fall, as everyone's trying to

401
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:18,640
Speaker 1: find sleepers in the ACC. I'm not saying Duke is one,

402
00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 1: but Malik Murphy's the kind of talent that could wreck

403
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,560
Speaker 1: a Saturday for four contending team at the very least.

404
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,880
Speaker 1: So I got him Will Howard of course at Ohio State.

405
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:28,840
Speaker 1: But to me, the question with Howard at Ohio State,

406
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:30,760
Speaker 1: it's more like, what do we need to get out

407
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,200
Speaker 1: of him? Howard's not a guy I'm looking at and saying,

408
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,720
Speaker 1: you better throw for thirty five hundred yards. You better

409
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:37,439
Speaker 1: do this, you better do that, like a college Football

410
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame voter, you better hit these certain statistical benchmarks. No, no,

411
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 1: just play smart and look around you to the left

412
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,960
Speaker 1: and right, and you got future Sunday guys all around you.

413
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:52,560
Speaker 1: Riley Leonard at Notre Dame, you know, we've got a

414
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:56,000
Speaker 1: situation there where every time I talk about Notre Dame

415
00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:57,800
Speaker 1: on the show, they're called overrated and I don't even

416
00:21:57,840 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 1: know what they're rated yet because they're literally not right.

417
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 1: Because it is June. That could be one of the

418
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:06,880
Speaker 1: stories of college football this year. Cam Ward at Miami

419
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:08,719
Speaker 1: could be one of the stories of college football this year.

420
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:13,800
Speaker 1: Dj Uyan Galilea at Florida State. Their season largely rests

421
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,360
Speaker 1: on whether his skill comes in and not only translates,

422
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:22,240
Speaker 1: but maybe elevates a level. Florida State's good enough around him.

423
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,360
Speaker 1: Mike Norvel's got a plenty good enough program around him.

424
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 1: So Florida State, as long as Norvell's going to be there,

425
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:29,960
Speaker 1: is not going to be in a situation where they're

426
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,560
Speaker 1: looking around yelling come help us, come save us. That's

427
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,160
Speaker 1: not the case, but you got to play high level ball.

428
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:39,399
Speaker 1: DJ can do that. He's capable of that, but I

429
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 1: don't think the caliber of play he's had to this

430
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,919
Speaker 1: point in his career is good enough. So Kenny elevated

431
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:48,480
Speaker 1: because if I'm a Florida State fan, that's what I expect.

432
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 1: Like I look at my coaching staff, I think they're

433
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:53,480
Speaker 1: the real deal. So we go get him. He was

434
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: at Clemson and he was at Oregon State. We bring

435
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,919
Speaker 1: him in here. He should play the best year of

436
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:00,920
Speaker 1: his career here. Doesn't mean he has to be a

437
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:04,280
Speaker 1: Heisman finalist, but we got to get a little bit

438
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:06,960
Speaker 1: better level of play from him than he's gotten so

439
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 1: far in his career. Out of all those guys, I'd

440
00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:12,640
Speaker 1: probably go with Dylan Gabriel, like that's the guy who

441
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:16,560
Speaker 1: has the biggest impact. But look, it could also be

442
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 1: that you know, at a place like notre name just

443
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:25,360
Speaker 1: the margins here and there that you haven't had Riley Leonard,

444
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:28,440
Speaker 1: you know, fills that void. And it's not that he's

445
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:30,880
Speaker 1: playing head and shoulders above anybody who's been there. They

446
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:34,000
Speaker 1: don't need anyone to they just need someone. It's kind

447
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,199
Speaker 1: of like the feel at Ohio state. We don't need

448
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:39,119
Speaker 1: Will Howard to come in here and rewrite our record books.

449
00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 1: We just need him to manage this offense and take

450
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,640
Speaker 1: good care of the ball and distribute and make good decisions.

451
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:47,639
Speaker 1: I guess Gabriel would be my answer because he feels

452
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,359
Speaker 1: like the most prolific numbers guy out of this group.

453
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,680
Speaker 1: But we'll see a lot of transfer quarterbacks. I mean, look,

454
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:55,359
Speaker 1: I don't want to overlook I don't want to overlook

455
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,480
Speaker 1: cam Ward. And because Colin is going to cut this

456
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:00,639
Speaker 1: into two different videos, that's why I get little pregnant

457
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:04,520
Speaker 1: pause there because I'm about to talk about him. Here does

458
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 1: the new Well, I don't want to say it that way. Well,

459
00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:10,960
Speaker 1: the ACC have a new Tier one team because it's

460
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,479
Speaker 1: been Clemson in Florida State, and those remain stays there

461
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 1: at this point and for the foreseeable future. I guess

462
00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 1: it feels like they will be. But then there's this

463
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,879
Speaker 1: drop off, and there still is that drop off in

464
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:24,719
Speaker 1: the odds market right now. But the odds market is

465
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 1: really basing that a lot on what history has said

466
00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:30,359
Speaker 1: so far, and I wonder if history is going to

467
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:32,760
Speaker 1: repeat itself or if this year in the ACC, all

468
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 1: of a sudden someone ramps up into the main conversation, Like,

469
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 1: does someone walk up to the head table, pull out

470
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,639
Speaker 1: a chair and sit down and not immediately look like

471
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 1: a fraud. That has to be Miami to me if

472
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 1: someone does it. But just as surely as I say

473
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:49,679
Speaker 1: that Louisville speaks up, NC State speaks up, I know

474
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,760
Speaker 1: I got some Virginia Tech folks who'll speak up. Virginia

475
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 1: Tech's probably got a few more pros on that roster

476
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:58,440
Speaker 1: then people realize just throwing that out there. So anyway,

477
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:02,720
Speaker 1: I don't know if Tech is poised to enter Tier

478
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:05,960
Speaker 1: one conversation this year. Now, they could be a year

479
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 1: ahead of schedule and do that and prove me wrong,

480
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:11,200
Speaker 1: and I'd be happy for him if they did. Miami's

481
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,919
Speaker 1: the one poised to do it. Miami's the one that

482
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,200
Speaker 1: won't be hurting for athletes. Miami is the one who

483
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 1: can go man for man with you. Miami is the

484
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 1: one who in November I could see surging because if

485
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:26,080
Speaker 1: cam Ward is what we think he can be at quarterback,

486
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 1: then they may have the best one in the ACC.

487
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:32,800
Speaker 1: To put it flatly, Miami could have the best quarterback

488
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 1: in the ACC. If it doesn't pan out, then it's

489
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:40,200
Speaker 1: just another December, a long December, a counting Crow's special

490
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 1: of questioning everything down there. But if he is, and

491
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,560
Speaker 1: I've been down there and I've watched practice, he looks

492
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:51,879
Speaker 1: insane to me. If he is, then that box being checked. Dude,

493
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,680
Speaker 1: If they had him last year, what would they have done?

494
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,360
Speaker 1: That's how I think. So then they've got him this year,

495
00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:00,919
Speaker 1: and like everything else, continues to trend up. This is

496
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,360
Speaker 1: where emotion enters the equation, you know, because I say

497
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:05,760
Speaker 1: that about Miami and a lot of people will say, now,

498
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:09,080
Speaker 1: ah they suck, now ah, this and that. Hear what

499
00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,360
Speaker 1: I said. I said, everything's trended up. They won five

500
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,880
Speaker 1: games Mario's first year there, they won seven last year.

501
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 1: That's the definition of trending up. The roster is getting better.

502
00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:21,000
Speaker 1: It doesn't mean they win the national title this year.

503
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:24,200
Speaker 1: That's you putting words in my mouth. I didn't say.

504
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:28,040
Speaker 1: What I'm saying is just factually correct about them. So

505
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:32,359
Speaker 1: then you insert the opinion and that's the whole you know, speculative.

506
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:36,200
Speaker 1: If cam Ward is a phenomenal quarterback this year, well

507
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:40,560
Speaker 1: then what then what is Yeah, that's another Tier one

508
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:42,480
Speaker 1: team at the very least, even if they don't win

509
00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:45,320
Speaker 1: the ACC. That's a team that figures into the equation

510
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,639
Speaker 1: of who's gonna win the ACC. Again, I feel like

511
00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:52,120
Speaker 1: everything I just said is fact, and yet it will

512
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:56,480
Speaker 1: be painted as homerism. NC State is just lurking. To me,

513
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 1: they're just lurking. Dave Dorn again has a team that

514
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:03,240
Speaker 1: could puts for eight nine wins. They can't hit that

515
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:06,679
Speaker 1: ten win range, yet they haven't. Double digit wins has

516
00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 1: eluded them. I ask you this just a little side

517
00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 1: note here, and I don't know what it is about

518
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:17,399
Speaker 1: NC State. I've talked with their folks about this before.

519
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:22,440
Speaker 1: I feel like NC State should be much bigger deal

520
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:24,919
Speaker 1: than they are nationally. So think about this. It's a

521
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:29,639
Speaker 1: power for team in a major market. They're in Raleigh,

522
00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:33,040
Speaker 1: they play good football. They haven't been bad at all.

523
00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 1: They've been good. It's a pretty good fan base. I

524
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,520
Speaker 1: just don't get how NC State feels as anonymous as

525
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,960
Speaker 1: they do on the national scene. Like NC State fans

526
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 1: know their program. ACC fans know NC State. But take

527
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:51,359
Speaker 1: someone in Tulsa, Oklahoma, take someone who lives in in

528
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:55,080
Speaker 1: Manhattan Beach in California. They're college football fans, but they're

529
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:58,119
Speaker 1: not native to the ACC footprint. What do they know

530
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 1: or what do they think of? When you say NC State,

531
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 1: what do they think of Chuck Amato? What do they

532
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 1: think of It's kind of an anonymous program. It has

533
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:08,800
Speaker 1: little to do with what we were talking about here,

534
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:12,840
Speaker 1: because anonymous programs can win a conference title just like that,

535
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,600
Speaker 1: and maybe they pride themselves in that. Maybe they do.

536
00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 1: But I've always wondered that anytime someone asks which is

537
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,879
Speaker 1: the sleeping giant program out there, and people would go Texas,

538
00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 1: A and M. And I agreed with that. I used

539
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:29,200
Speaker 1: to say, Central Florida, that's the other one. N C

540
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 1: State is like a sleeping giant program, but they're not bad.

541
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,080
Speaker 1: So it's not the on the field product I'm necessarily

542
00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,960
Speaker 1: talking about. It's the on the field product, and then

543
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 1: the country realizing that they have that product on the

544
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,960
Speaker 1: field never made much sense to me. Anyway. Let's move on.

545
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 1: Do you people realize that we're closing in on Father's Day?

546
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:55,240
Speaker 1: Academy Sports and Outdoors. Does I got a personalized text,

547
00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:58,400
Speaker 1: not an automated one, A personalized text from our fine

548
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,479
Speaker 1: friends at academy. Remind me of the calendar and therefore

549

Speaker 1: bought a wagon the other day and we bought it

563
00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 1: online using the QR code, and we went and picked

564

Speaker 1: it up. I'm not looking for discounts, not looking for

565
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 1: discounts at all. I just wanted to help the show out,

575
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,480
Speaker 1: way as Father's Day approaches. Okay, I saw a great

576
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:22,400
Speaker 1: story today. It's only like a four minute read too,

577
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 1: So what did mem I used to say me and

578
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 1: I used to always say, there's a big difference between

579
00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 1: a story and a problem, big difference between a story

580
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 1: and an issue. There is a story over on cbsports

581
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 1: dot com right now by the one and only John Talty,

582
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:40,719
Speaker 1: friend of the program, and he was talking about staff sizes.

583
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 1: College football over the past decade to decade and a

584
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 1: half became famous for the big time programs led by

585
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 1: Nick Saban loading up on off field analysts, and therefore

586
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:54,480
Speaker 1: you'd have an army of people. You'd be like, Butch

587
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 1: Jones got fired at Tennessee. I wonder what he's doing. Now.

588
00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:00,560
Speaker 1: Wait a second, I'm watching Bama versus Arkins. Did I

589
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:06,480
Speaker 1: just did I just see Butch Jones. That's Butch Jones. Yes, yes,

590
00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:09,360
Speaker 1: Well he's the head coach at Arkansas State. Now, but

591
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:12,200
Speaker 1: Butch Jones ken wizen Hunt used to be an NFL

592
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 1: head coach. Were you aware ken wizen Hunt was just

593
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:17,239
Speaker 1: hanging out in Tuscaloosa. Nick Saban went and got all

594
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:21,080
Speaker 1: these guys and said, you're not working right now. You've

595
00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 1: got experience running an organization, running a program, You've got

596
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:27,480
Speaker 1: experience coordinating a side of the ball. Come over here.

597
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:33,080
Speaker 1: I'll pay you forty thousand dollars a year. Maybe. In fact, Colin,

598
00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 1: do you have that snippet from the article? This is

599
00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 1: just such a wild thing. Yeah, there it is. I

600
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:41,640
Speaker 1: tweeted it out earlier today. So listen, listen to this paragraph.

601
00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:44,720
Speaker 1: This is a real thing. So Talty is talking about

602
00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:48,000
Speaker 1: how Nick Saban discovered this market advantage where he could

603
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:50,120
Speaker 1: just take the experienced coaches who have failed and he

604
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,240
Speaker 1: could bring him in Alabama, pay him thirty or forty

605
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,360
Speaker 1: grand a year. I'm not kidding, that's what he paid them.

606
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:57,080
Speaker 1: And they could just they could collect or buy out

607
00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 1: money because they were probably fired and in the me time,

608
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:04,480
Speaker 1: listen to this paragraph. Mike Loxley teamed with Steve Sarkisian

609
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:08,080
Speaker 1: fresh off a failed stint as USC's coach to help

610
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:12,440
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator Lane Kiffen with third down and red zone strategy.

611
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,680
Speaker 1: The duo made a combined eighty thousand dollars a year

612
00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 1: right now. Steve Sarkisan took Texas to the playoff last year.

613
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:22,520
Speaker 1: Mike Loxley is the head coach at Maryland. Kiffin's been

614
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,520
Speaker 1: the head coach at Ole Miss. They got better odds

615
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 1: to win the SEC than literal Alabama does this year.

616
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:31,240
Speaker 1: Saban just had them all over there and paying Sarkin

617
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 1: locks a combined eighty grand a year. Steve Sarkisian makes

618
00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:41,040
Speaker 1: eight figures now per year, and Mike Loxley does very

619
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:44,400
Speaker 1: very well for himself too. So this was all happening.

620
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 1: And John Talty was writing in this piece, as you

621
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:50,240
Speaker 1: look at the highest paid coaches in college football, we've

622
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 1: got one, two, three, four, five, six, We got seven

623
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 1: of them officially making over ten million a year, and

624
00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 1: Brian Kelly is not far off. So Talty was writing

625
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:04,640
Speaker 1: about how that entire concept may be going away soon,

626
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:07,680
Speaker 1: about how the army of all field analysts may be

627
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 1: going away because you're gonna have your budget squeezed because

628
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,480
Speaker 1: you're about to have to pay the college football players.

629
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:15,640
Speaker 1: You're about to have to pay the guys who are

630
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:20,280
Speaker 1: on the field being coached. So is that gonna happen?

631
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:23,880
Speaker 1: Are you limiting staff size? Sure, you're gonna limit it.

632
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:27,280
Speaker 1: Is it a bad thing? Not? Really? Do you care?

633
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:30,920
Speaker 1: Probably not? Nor should you. But if you do care,

634
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 1: because I know we got a lot of coaches that

635
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:34,360
Speaker 1: watch the show. A couple of them are probably gonna

636
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:36,280
Speaker 1: text me before we go off the air tonight, get

637
00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:39,400
Speaker 1: mad about this because you do love being able to

638
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:41,000
Speaker 1: walk around a corner and peep your head in an

639
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:45,080
Speaker 1: office and give a former NFL head coach a special

640
00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,920
Speaker 1: task for the day. Yeah, I understand that's a benefit.

641
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 1: It's not a necessity though, It's just a benefit. But

642
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:53,640
Speaker 1: I do have a solution, and I know a couple

643
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:56,720
Speaker 1: of big earners in particular who I would like to

644
00:33:56,760 --> 00:34:00,880
Speaker 1: direct this to, not by name, of course. You want

645
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:04,920
Speaker 1: your off field analyst army to maintain itself. You're making

646
00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 1: over ten million a year and you want to be

647
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:09,759
Speaker 1: able to add a group of people and pay them

648
00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:13,000
Speaker 1: about forty grand a year apiece. Hey, I got a solution.

649
00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:16,920
Speaker 1: Pay them yourself, come off your own hip pocket and

650
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:19,480
Speaker 1: pay them. There's no room in the budget. There's room

651
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:23,560
Speaker 1: in your budget. There's room in coach EXLLC. If you

652
00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:25,839
Speaker 1: hadn't already created that, and I know good andwell you

653
00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,440
Speaker 1: have because that's how you run those camps, then that's

654
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:31,759
Speaker 1: where the money comes from. There is a concept that

655
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,880
Speaker 1: to me has always made perfect sense, whether it's in football,

656
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,560
Speaker 1: whether it's in our business, whether it's in any business.

657
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,239
Speaker 1: If you make a ton of money doing what you do,

658
00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:44,360
Speaker 1: and you take personal pride in the product, personal pride

659
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 1: in the outcome, etc. In my case, personal pride in

660
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 1: the show and your company an organization doesn't have room

661
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:53,799
Speaker 1: in the budget to do every little thing you want

662
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:58,000
Speaker 1: to do, do it yourself, pay them yourself. Think about

663
00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 1: how much better everyone off is one is in the

664
00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:04,800
Speaker 1: long run. But that is such a foreign concept. I've

665
00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:08,120
Speaker 1: noticed this. I've fought with people in my industry about

666
00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:12,520
Speaker 1: this in an argumentative fashion because they think it's sacrilege.

667
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 1: Like you work at CBS Sports, So if you want

668
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:19,759
Speaker 1: something and they're not giving you the budget, you just

669
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:21,239
Speaker 1: don't get it. That's just the end of the day.

670
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:23,839
Speaker 1: I'll go just go buy it. That's what you do,

671
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:27,400
Speaker 1: and it'll pay off down the road. If I'm a

672
00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:30,840
Speaker 1: football coach. Let me ask you a question, if a

673
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:36,239
Speaker 1: really good mind, if Steve Sarksian that you respected to

674
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:38,719
Speaker 1: the ends of the earth, was out there and he'd

675
00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:42,040
Speaker 1: been fired, and he was available, and you knew you

676
00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:45,800
Speaker 1: could bring him in to help certain functions of your offense,

677
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:48,640
Speaker 1: and you needed to pay him forty grand and you

678
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:52,160
Speaker 1: made eleven point three per year, Who in their right

679
00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:55,920
Speaker 1: mind would let budget stand between them and bringing Steve

680
00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:59,879
Speaker 1: Sarkisian into office four down the hall. That's insane. Yeah,

681
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,600
Speaker 1: there is a group, there's a sizeable group of people

682
00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:04,480
Speaker 1: who truly believe, Hey, if the company's not going to

683
00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,920
Speaker 1: pay for it, you better never pay a dime yourself.

684
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:12,200
Speaker 1: Don't you ever give a dime of your money back? Well,

685
00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:16,080
Speaker 1: if giving a dime or two or three of your

686
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:19,759
Speaker 1: money back goes to further the product, therefore elevating your

687
00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:22,640
Speaker 1: value even more down the road, and there's in the process,

688
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 1: then it even makes financial sense. Penny wise, pound foolish

689
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:31,160
Speaker 1: is no way to live, as Memai used to say.

690
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,759
Speaker 1: So there's the solution. If it's a problem that your

691
00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:37,240
Speaker 1: staffs are going to shrink because of budget, there's the solution.

692
00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 1: Paying yourself. Next up, Bold predictions continue on this show.

693
00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:46,200
Speaker 1: Bold predictions are basically what you say you believe enough

694
00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:48,160
Speaker 1: to where you would bet your own money on it.

695
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 1: How about this one, because this one's really specific and

696
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:56,960
Speaker 1: it's fairly bold. First up tonight, we go down to Lakeworth, Florida.

697
00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:03,560
Speaker 1: FSU loses two games, one in the regular season, one

698
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:07,520
Speaker 1: in the ACC championship game, and they miss the playoff.

699
00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:14,000
Speaker 1: This is a nine point twenty five on the boldness scale.

700
00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,359
Speaker 1: You know what, I'm gonna bump it up because if

701
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:19,040
Speaker 1: this happens, you should qualify for a chalice of supremacy.

702
00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:21,480
Speaker 1: So this is a nine point five on the boldness scale.

703
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:27,120
Speaker 1: So if Florida State loses one regular season game, they're

704
00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:30,839
Speaker 1: way up inside the top ten going into the conference championship.

705
00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:34,880
Speaker 1: So you're telling me a team that is squarely in

706
00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:38,160
Speaker 1: the top ten and it's Florida State, and everyone remembers

707
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:40,680
Speaker 1: what happened last year, so they absolutely would get preferential

708
00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:43,680
Speaker 1: treatment even they're in the top ten. They lose the

709
00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:46,480
Speaker 1: conference title game, you're telling me they're gonna be out entirely.

710
00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:51,040
Speaker 1: Florida State, by the way, is plus one sixty to

711
00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:53,560
Speaker 1: make the playoff, minus two hundred not to make the playoff.

712
00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:56,160
Speaker 1: They are plus two seven. They got best odds to

713
00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:59,680
Speaker 1: win the ACC, so it's not crazy to think that

714
00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:02,640
Speaker 1: being the ACC title game, I guess it's not crazy

715
00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:04,000
Speaker 1: to think they'd lose it. I don't even know who

716
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:05,759
Speaker 1: they'd be playing, or what the spread would be or

717
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:09,440
Speaker 1: anything like that. But I have a question that I

718
00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:12,200
Speaker 1: think is probably either going to be a big story

719
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:14,040
Speaker 1: or not a story at all this year, depending on

720
00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:17,360
Speaker 1: what Notre Dame does. So Notre Dame will not have

721
00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:21,360
Speaker 1: a conference championship game. There is a scenario where a

722
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,520
Speaker 1: team like Florida State, who would have played Notre Dame.

723
00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:27,160
Speaker 1: By the way, a team like Florida State. So let's

724
00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:30,319
Speaker 1: say they're roughly ranked even or maybe slightly ahead of

725
00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 1: Notre Dame, and they go into conference championship Saturday, Florida

726
00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:38,000
Speaker 1: State has to play another game because they won the

727
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:42,359
Speaker 1: right to they lose it, do they fall behind Notre Dame.

728
00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 1: A Notre Dame team that sits at home and does

729
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:47,919
Speaker 1: nothing because they don't play in a conference. And if

730
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:51,720
Speaker 1: that happened, and it happened to Florida State of all teams,

731
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:55,759
Speaker 1: and that made them miss out on the playoff, they

732
00:38:55,800 --> 00:39:00,279
Speaker 1: would burn this thing to the ground. So that's a

733
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:02,160
Speaker 1: bold prediction because I don't even think of ten and

734
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:05,120
Speaker 1: two Florida State's being left out. I know that language

735
00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:07,080
Speaker 1: is still a little bit raw based on what happened

736
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:09,319
Speaker 1: last year, but I don't think they would be left out. Now,

737
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,120
Speaker 1: if you're talking about they're ten and two and they

738
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,839
Speaker 1: go play for the conference title and then they lose

739
00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:18,120
Speaker 1: it and they go ten and three, maybe then, but nah,

740
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:22,960
Speaker 1: like a ten and two, I don't know, man Like,

741
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:25,319
Speaker 1: I don't think they'd be left out. Eleven and two,

742
00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:26,600
Speaker 1: I guess will be the record. I don't think they're

743
00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:28,560
Speaker 1: being left out. So that's a nine point five on

744
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:32,160
Speaker 1: the boldness scale for those reasons. Next up, Yeah, this

745
00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,560
Speaker 1: is another nine point five. We're two for two. Here

746
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:45,480
Speaker 1: Aaron from Dayton, Ohio Drew Aller, Heisman finalist this season. Well,

747
00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:47,960
Speaker 1: I have to be honest with you. When I skim

748
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:49,440
Speaker 1: through the notes earlier today, I don't like to have

749
00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:50,799
Speaker 1: a lot of notes on these. So when I skim

750
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:53,719
Speaker 1: through the tweets earlier today, I thought it said he

751
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:56,879
Speaker 1: wins the Heisman, and you know what, here's what we're

752
00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:58,759
Speaker 1: gonna do erin here's what I have to do to you.

753
00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:02,360
Speaker 1: I think you prediction is a nine on the boldness scale.

754
00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:07,279
Speaker 1: But because I already had the staff prepare the elements accordingly,

755
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:11,080
Speaker 1: we're just gonna call an audible here. Already gave you your rating.

756
00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:14,280
Speaker 1: We're gonna call an audible here, and We're gonna pretend

757
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:16,600
Speaker 1: like you predicted Drew Aller to win the Heisman, and

758
00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:18,440
Speaker 1: I'm gonna rank that a nine point five on the

759
00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:21,399
Speaker 1: boldness scale. Now, the benefit to you here is, well,

760
00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:23,400
Speaker 1: we put words in your mouth, so that's a detriment.

761
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:25,759
Speaker 1: But the benefit is if this hits you, win a

762
00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:30,520
Speaker 1: challis a supremacy. So Aller is tied for having the

763
00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:33,839
Speaker 1: eighteenth best heismanads right now. He has the same odds

764
00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:37,160
Speaker 1: as Shador Sanders, as Cade club Nick, as Miller Moss.

765
00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:40,279
Speaker 1: That's that's about the area that he's in right now.

766
00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:43,240
Speaker 1: I think he's just flat out too big a jump.

767
00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:47,879
Speaker 1: Last year he had twenty six little over twenty six

768
00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:51,520
Speaker 1: hundred passing yards, twenty five touchdowns, two picks. So Bryce

769
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,399
Speaker 1: Young two years ago won the Heisman and he threw

770
00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:58,359
Speaker 1: for thirty three hundred, thirty two touchdowns, five picks. Jamie

771
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:02,560
Speaker 1: Daniels last year thirty eight hundred passing yards, forty touchdowns,

772
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:05,120
Speaker 1: four picks. So I know you got the new offensive

773
00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:07,680
Speaker 1: coordinator up there, do you really make that big a jump.

774
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,359
Speaker 1: I haven't sold my Drew alller stock or anything like that.

775
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:12,439
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying he couldn't have a good year.

776
00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:14,600
Speaker 1: I'm not saying Pence they couldn't win the Big Ten

777
00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:18,600
Speaker 1: for all I know. But winning the Heisman, now that

778
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:23,520
Speaker 1: is a level of individual statistical achievement. I'm not quite

779
00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:25,919
Speaker 1: sure they're capable of hitting this year. If I'm wrong,

780
00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:29,560
Speaker 1: I'm wrong. Next up, let's go to the show Me State.

781
00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 1: Did some storm chasing there last week. I was in

782
00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:36,520
Speaker 1: Van Buren, Missouri, about six hours before tornado hit. I

783
00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:40,240
Speaker 1: exit town and the tornado enters. How does it happen?

784
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:44,240
Speaker 1: Hoops amongst us knows. The prediction, though from Laramie, Wyoming,

785
00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:47,759
Speaker 1: is that Missouri will make and win a playoff game.

786
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,560
Speaker 1: This is an eight point seventy five on the boldness scale.

787
00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:53,839
Speaker 1: You know it's not that bold. Missouri is plus one

788
00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:56,400
Speaker 1: eighty four to make the playoff, minus two thirty not

789
00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:58,719
Speaker 1: to make the playoff. They're over under win total is

790
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:01,200
Speaker 1: nine and a half that's the same is Alabama. That's

791
00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:03,840
Speaker 1: the same as LSU, that's the same as old miss

792
00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:06,879
Speaker 1: A lot is expected of Missouri. Now it's heavily juice

793
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:09,040
Speaker 1: to the under I'll grant you that. But their over

794
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:11,879
Speaker 1: win totals nine and a half. It's just not as

795
00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:14,560
Speaker 1: wild as it seems. Their quarterbacks got twenty seven starts.

796
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:16,920
Speaker 1: Brady Cook, he's coming back this year. If they get

797
00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:19,840
Speaker 1: their secondary figured out and they've got some runway to

798
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:21,960
Speaker 1: do it. They start with Murray State and then Buffalo

799
00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:26,040
Speaker 1: BC Vanderbilt. You want another fun little stat to track,

800
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:30,520
Speaker 1: check out how many first year coaches they faced this year.

801
00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:32,799
Speaker 1: I think it's like six or seven or something like that.

802
00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:36,920
Speaker 1: Like half their schedule or more is first year head coaches,

803
00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:40,400
Speaker 1: first year staffs. Just something to keep an eye on Missouri.

804
00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:42,399
Speaker 1: I don't think it was one hit wonder last year.

805
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:45,879
Speaker 1: Making a playoff game and winning a playoff game, now

806
00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:48,399
Speaker 1: that's what's tough. Maybe this should be a nine. We'll

807
00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:50,520
Speaker 1: make it a nine. Winning a playoff game, we'll make

808
00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:53,240
Speaker 1: it a nine. And lastly, this is the most creative

809
00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:57,160
Speaker 1: prediction we had tonight. John from Texars Canada, Texas. Each

810
00:42:57,239 --> 00:43:00,440
Speaker 1: power for conference gets two teams in the play playoff.

811
00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:03,400
Speaker 1: The SEC will get two teams. The Big Ten, I

812
00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:08,000
Speaker 1: think will get two teams. The ACC, I'm fairly confident,

813
00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:10,839
Speaker 1: will get two teams. Don't ask me which ones, but

814
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:13,560
Speaker 1: I think they will. It's less likely, but I think

815
00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:16,000
Speaker 1: they will. Now the Big twelve, we got some work

816
00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:20,400
Speaker 1: to do. Iowa State and who Okay, Iowa State's in.

817
00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:23,120
Speaker 1: We all know that. Who's the other Big twelve team

818
00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:26,840
Speaker 1: that makes the playoff? Don't laugh? It really makes me

819
00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:29,400
Speaker 1: angry when I do this show in this isolation chamber.

820
00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:32,360
Speaker 1: But I say something and I know people are listening

821
00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:36,239
Speaker 1: to it and they're laughing. It's disrespectful, and frankly, you're

822
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:40,360
Speaker 1: above that. So calm it, clear the air. Here we

823
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:46,719
Speaker 1: go Iowa State and who in the Big twelve? Kansas State? Maybe? Yeah,

824
00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:48,759
Speaker 1: I have a scenario that I want to throw out there.

825
00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:50,960
Speaker 1: Here's how this could happen. So let's say there's an

826
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:54,400
Speaker 1: eleven and one team versus a nine and three team

827
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:56,879
Speaker 1: in the Big twelve championship game. The nine and three

828
00:43:56,880 --> 00:44:01,240
Speaker 1: team wins, they're automatically in, and I think the eleven

829
00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:03,759
Speaker 1: and two teams probably gonna go as well. That's the

830
00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:05,759
Speaker 1: way that could happen. It could just be that you

831
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 1: have two really, really really good teams in the Big

832
00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:11,480
Speaker 1: Twelve this year. That could happen as well. Statistically speaking,

833
00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:14,800
Speaker 1: it's less likely. And I'm not sure how much respect

834
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:16,960
Speaker 1: people are gonna look at the Big Twelve with not me.

835
00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:20,000
Speaker 1: I love the Big Twelve. It's America's college football conference.

836
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:23,760
Speaker 1: But you know, the You'll committee there, how much respect

837
00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:26,080
Speaker 1: do they have for the Big Twelve. Having said that,

838
00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:29,399
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give that prediction an eight point seven. I'm

839
00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:31,319
Speaker 1: gonna give it an eight point five, eight point five.

840
00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:33,080
Speaker 1: I'm calling it in the ring. I'm gonna give an

841
00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:36,280
Speaker 1: eight point five on the Boldness Scale each Power for conference.

842
00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:38,759
Speaker 1: At least two teams in the playoff. That still leaves

843
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:41,120
Speaker 1: four spots. That the G five takes one of them

844
00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:44,080
Speaker 1: still leaves three spots. I think it could happen. Yeah,

845
00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:47,960
Speaker 1: so eight point five. They're watching us in Omaha, Nebraska, Louisville, Kentucky,

846
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:52,120
Speaker 1: Fort Myers, Florida. Thank you guys so much. Someone tried

847
00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:55,719
Speaker 1: to hate on one of our peers earlier today, and

848
00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:57,759
Speaker 1: we don't go for it. We don't go for that.

849
00:44:57,800 --> 00:44:59,759
Speaker 1: Hall and Oates are in court in Davidson County right

850
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 1: now against each other. But I can't go for that. No, no,

851
00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:06,759
Speaker 1: can do. So let's take a look at the question here.

852
00:45:07,600 --> 00:45:10,439
Speaker 1: And I appreciate to the ends of the earth, you guys,

853
00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:13,800
Speaker 1: when you send questions, it's okay. If we disagree, like

854
00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:16,719
Speaker 1: we're about to kind of right here, it's okay. So

855
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:21,719
Speaker 1: here we go, CSU fan from Fort Collins, Colorado. I'll

856
00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:23,160
Speaker 1: let you do the math there. He said, did you

857
00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:27,160
Speaker 1: see your boy Klatt carrying water for Dion by saying

858
00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:29,759
Speaker 1: Colorado could win the Big Twelve this year? As a

859
00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:34,080
Speaker 1: matter of fact, I did see Joel Klatt say that

860
00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:38,200
Speaker 1: if everything were to go right for Colorado this year

861
00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:42,640
Speaker 1: and a conference is unpredictable, is the Big Twelve, they

862
00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:46,799
Speaker 1: could win it. Did he predict it to happen? I

863
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:50,000
Speaker 1: didn't hear that. Did he say it's likely? I did

864
00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:53,520
Speaker 1: not hear that. He did say it could happen. I'm

865
00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:57,279
Speaker 1: not gonna call that carrying water per se, because this

866
00:45:57,360 --> 00:46:00,000
Speaker 1: happens to me all the time. That's not carrying water.

867
00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:02,520
Speaker 1: I don't even care if he's rooting for it to happen.

868
00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:04,680
Speaker 1: He did play quarterback there by the way, I don't

869
00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:06,439
Speaker 1: even care if he's rooting for it to happen. It's

870
00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:09,600
Speaker 1: not carrying water to state facts. I'm not carrying water

871
00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:11,799
Speaker 1: for the sky because I call it blue. It just is.

872
00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:15,759
Speaker 1: So it's unlikely they're over under win totals five and

873
00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:18,480
Speaker 1: a half to win the Big Twelve. They're at plus

874
00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:22,440
Speaker 1: four thousand odds. Yet it would be noteworthy. I'll grant

875
00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:26,960
Speaker 1: you that. But are you ready to show me what

876
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:28,520
Speaker 1: the hierarchy in the Big Twelve is going to be

877
00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:31,680
Speaker 1: if everyone has that conference figured out? So the Dion

878
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:38,040
Speaker 1: tax sucks. Deon Sanders loved the dude to death. He is.

879
00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:40,799
Speaker 1: He is so transcendent. He is such a big name

880
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:43,920
Speaker 1: that last year we learned about the Dion tax together,

881
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:46,319
Speaker 1: didn't we We had we had Deon take the job,

882
00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:48,799
Speaker 1: and it stirred all of us up because we're college

883
00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:52,880
Speaker 1: football fans and we watched him in yesteryear. I'm a

884
00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:55,360
Speaker 1: Braves fan. That dude played in the World Series and

885
00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:58,000
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl. It's insane. Deon Sanders is an

886
00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:04,480
Speaker 1: athlete just unbelievable as a personality, unbelievable as a TV guy, unbelievable.

887
00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:08,400
Speaker 1: And now he's going to be the head coach at Colorado. Unbelievable,

888
00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:11,680
Speaker 1: sold out the spring game. Unbelievable. Just keep using that

889
00:47:11,680 --> 00:47:14,560
Speaker 1: word over and over again. So a lot of us,

890
00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:17,319
Speaker 1: I'll just speak for myself. We're in a situation where

891
00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:19,400
Speaker 1: we're looking forward to seeing what Dion and Colorado were

892
00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:22,680
Speaker 1: going to be last year. Here was the problem. They

893
00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:25,520
Speaker 1: beat TCU in week one? Josh, why is that a problem?

894
00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:28,239
Speaker 1: What's not for Colorado? It was a problem because it

895
00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:31,799
Speaker 1: got everyone's attention, and then a bunch of folks who

896
00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:33,879
Speaker 1: don't know which way is up in college football could

897
00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:38,600
Speaker 1: probably not even tell you Colorado's mascot until Friday of

898
00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:42,759
Speaker 1: the Nebraska game last year. They all come, they all

899
00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:46,239
Speaker 1: gather around, and they start spouting off opinions about Colorado,

900
00:47:46,560 --> 00:47:48,719
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, you get predictions like Colorado

901
00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:52,640
Speaker 1: could make the playoff, Colorado this, shudeor Sanders that. And

902
00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:57,080
Speaker 1: you've got people like me who predicted a modest improvement

903
00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:00,520
Speaker 1: for Colorado in year one and who said, boy, he's

904
00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:02,960
Speaker 1: still got a lot of work to do. Let's be

905
00:48:03,080 --> 00:48:05,759
Speaker 1: patient here, let's give him some room to work. And

906
00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:08,160
Speaker 1: they win in week one, and that's a great story. Okay,

907
00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:09,759
Speaker 1: you got all that and then you have like five

908
00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:14,080
Speaker 1: hundred people fly past you on the interstate and you say,

909
00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:16,600
Speaker 1: whoa man they're flying And then you get up to

910
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:19,439
Speaker 1: the next exit ramp and there they are, and they've

911
00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:21,040
Speaker 1: gotten up there, and they start to say all kinds

912
00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:24,640
Speaker 1: of nonsynsical things about Colorado and Dion, thus the Dion

913
00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:27,480
Speaker 1: tax that those of us who know the sport had

914
00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:31,000
Speaker 1: to pay. So in my world, here's what that sounded like.

915
00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:34,239
Speaker 1: I go from saying good for Dion Sanders and good

916
00:48:34,280 --> 00:48:36,279
Speaker 1: for Colorado and it still got a long way to go.

917
00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:38,799
Speaker 1: I mean, they'll crash back to Earth eventually this year

918
00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:42,040
Speaker 1: on the field, but already year one is a win.

919
00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:46,719
Speaker 1: Go from that to having to say Colorado's not going

920
00:48:46,800 --> 00:48:49,400
Speaker 1: to make the playoff? Are you crazy? Colorado's not going

921
00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:51,880
Speaker 1: to be close to Oregon? Are you crazy? Well, that

922
00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:54,560
Speaker 1: sounds like you're hating on Deon Sanders in Colorado. You're not.

923
00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:58,879
Speaker 1: You're stating facts. So I got accused of carrying water

924
00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:01,200
Speaker 1: for him last year. Then I got accused of Hayton

925
00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:03,239
Speaker 1: on the dune. And this happened in about the span

926
00:49:03,280 --> 00:49:08,920
Speaker 1: of six days. And so I don't I appreciate Dion.

927
00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:11,480
Speaker 1: The Dion tax I could do without. In the w

928
00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:15,160
Speaker 1: NBA right now, they're paying the Caitlin Clark tax because

929
00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:17,880
Speaker 1: you got folks talking about the WNBA who could not

930
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:20,960
Speaker 1: tell you anything about their league if their life depended

931
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:22,640
Speaker 1: on it. But they got it. They got to take

932
00:49:22,719 --> 00:49:26,720
Speaker 1: right now. And it's nauseating. And I picture people because

933
00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:29,480
Speaker 1: there are people out there who are diehard WNBA fans.

934
00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:32,200
Speaker 1: You got to be drowning in it right now. The

935
00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:35,360
Speaker 1: Caitlyn the CC tax, well we've got that. It's the

936
00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:38,000
Speaker 1: don tax in college football. We've got it. We dealt

937
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:40,920
Speaker 1: with it last year. They're overrunder win totals five and

938
00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:42,880
Speaker 1: a half this year. So I'm going to tell you

939
00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:45,920
Speaker 1: now when none of those folks are paying attention. The

940
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:49,480
Speaker 1: casuals are off doing who knows what they do this

941
00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:52,439
Speaker 1: time of year. But they'll be back. They'll be back.

942
00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:55,640
Speaker 1: Dion and Colorado go to Nebraska in week two. They'll

943
00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:58,879
Speaker 1: be back. But it's Thursday, June sixth. Then I'm telling you,

944
00:49:59,520 --> 00:50:02,200
Speaker 1: if they go over five and a half, that is

945
00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:07,200
Speaker 1: a phenomenal story. That's a phenomenal first two years. If

946
00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:12,120
Speaker 1: they do that, enrollments are up out there, the financial

947
00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:17,439
Speaker 1: contributions and the financial win fall, the marketing, the free

948
00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:20,120
Speaker 1: marketing win fall that they've already enjoyed because of him.

949
00:50:20,160 --> 00:50:23,839
Speaker 1: It's already a win on so many levels. If they

950
00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:26,520
Speaker 1: were to win six games this year, though, and hit

951
00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:31,640
Speaker 1: that over, what would people say if they win six

952
00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:35,239
Speaker 1: I'm telling you that's a phenomenal year. What would people say?

953
00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:38,520
Speaker 1: I think you know what they would say? Mainly the

954
00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:40,960
Speaker 1: ones responsible for you paying the Dion tax. I think

955
00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:43,600
Speaker 1: you know what they would say. So, yeah, it's gonna

956
00:50:43,600 --> 00:50:45,680
Speaker 1: be another one of those years where the conversation is

957
00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:48,319
Speaker 1: not based in reality. There is no logic. You can

958
00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:50,359
Speaker 1: take your logic and you wad it up and throw

959
00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:52,360
Speaker 1: it out your window. There is no logic in this.

960
00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:56,160
Speaker 1: And then towards the end of the year there'll be

961
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:59,880
Speaker 1: a whole other conversation of well, the shoulder is gone,

962
00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:03,360
Speaker 1: Deon Sanders going that one's legit, but but I'm not

963
00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:05,759
Speaker 1: having it right now. But yeah, class's not carrying water

964
00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:07,480
Speaker 1: for them, or if he is, he is, I don't

965
00:51:07,480 --> 00:51:10,040
Speaker 1: really care. You know. That's this whole other conversation that

966
00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:14,160
Speaker 1: you could have, not even about Joe Klatt, about people

967
00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:19,160
Speaker 1: in general, who talk, people who commentate, take your color

968
00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:21,920
Speaker 1: analysts take your play by play guys, take people who

969
00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:27,160
Speaker 1: just have shows like me. There's a fascination with who

970
00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:29,680
Speaker 1: these people grew up rooting for or where they went

971
00:51:29,719 --> 00:51:34,080
Speaker 1: to school. I've never cared. I could know that the

972
00:51:34,120 --> 00:51:37,160
Speaker 1: play by play guy has bias for one team and

973
00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:39,279
Speaker 1: not care as long as he's doing the job at

974
00:51:39,320 --> 00:51:41,799
Speaker 1: a high level, I couldn't know. I could have a

975
00:51:41,920 --> 00:51:45,040
Speaker 1: monitor in the booth. Now this would be unprofessional, but

976
00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:46,880
Speaker 1: I'm telling you my feel on it. I could have

977
00:51:46,920 --> 00:51:49,120
Speaker 1: a monitor in the booth and I could watch herb

978
00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:51,879
Speaker 1: Street fist pump every time Ohio State gets a first down.

979
00:51:52,040 --> 00:51:55,200
Speaker 1: If he calls the game professionally, I wouldn't care. I

980
00:51:55,239 --> 00:51:58,239
Speaker 1: could watch. I could watch Canal fist pump every time

981
00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:01,319
Speaker 1: FSU gets a first down. If he calls the game professionally,

982
00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:04,880
Speaker 1: I don't care. I never really care about rooting interest.

983
00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:08,120
Speaker 1: And then we got guys like Gary Danielson at this

984
00:52:08,200 --> 00:52:11,480
Speaker 1: network who get hated on by everyone because he's got

985
00:52:11,480 --> 00:52:13,720
Speaker 1: the audacity to just speak his mind and not really

986
00:52:13,719 --> 00:52:16,439
Speaker 1: care about the consequences, which to me is the best

987
00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:19,800
Speaker 1: kind of color analyst because he's not beholden to anything

988
00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:23,279
Speaker 1: or anyone, and the best thing about Danielson is everybody

989
00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:26,840
Speaker 1: thinks he's a homer of every team except their team

990
00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:29,799
Speaker 1: because he's a hater of their team. That probably just

991
00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:31,799
Speaker 1: means you've done your job at a pretty high level.

992
00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:36,160
Speaker 1: That's my opinion. We have got semi breaking news. It's

993
00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:39,920
Speaker 1: in the last six hours or so. It's worth the

994
00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:44,560
Speaker 1: paper pop. FanDuel now has every week zero and week

995
00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:48,440
Speaker 1: one point spread available totals too. Did you hear what

996
00:52:48,480 --> 00:52:51,920
Speaker 1: I said? Kids? Actually, kids, don't pay attention. I don't

997
00:52:51,960 --> 00:52:55,560
Speaker 1: want you betting yet. Week zero and Week one games

998
00:52:55,560 --> 00:52:57,560
Speaker 1: are up, true enough, all of them are, but the

999
00:52:57,560 --> 00:52:59,919
Speaker 1: totals are up too, and that's not something you're finding

1000
00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:02,879
Speaker 1: across the market. Trust me. I checked today. So yeah,

1001
00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:06,120
Speaker 1: you want Clemson plus thirteen against Georgia, you can get it.

1002
00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:07,839
Speaker 1: But you can also bet that total. And I don't

1003
00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:09,759
Speaker 1: have it in my head, just off the top, but

1004
00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:12,640
Speaker 1: it's there. We've got it. So FanDuel is the exclusive

1005
00:53:12,640 --> 00:53:15,799
Speaker 1: odds provider of the show, and we appreciate them. And

1006
00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:17,760
Speaker 1: I've got a lot of ideas, including some I've bounced

1007
00:53:17,760 --> 00:53:20,640
Speaker 1: off them just yesterday, that we're working on. But in

1008
00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:24,440
Speaker 1: the meantime, go bet your totals until your little heart

1009
00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:27,880
Speaker 1: and bank account is content. Be responsible about it. I know,

1010
00:53:27,960 --> 00:53:31,680
Speaker 1: I joke sometimes, be very responsible about it. We are

1011
00:53:31,719 --> 00:53:35,279
Speaker 1: in summer, so it's still far enough away where you're

1012
00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:39,359
Speaker 1: not thinking and betting with emotion yet hopefully know what

1013
00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:42,359
Speaker 1: you're doing. It's not the easiest economic time out there.

1014
00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:45,759
Speaker 1: Know what you're doing and know when to take that

1015
00:53:45,840 --> 00:53:48,160
Speaker 1: phone and just toss it over on your couch. It's

1016
00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:51,719
Speaker 1: okay to enjoy a Tuesday night Matt game without having

1017
00:53:51,760 --> 00:53:54,880
Speaker 1: money riding on it. Believe it or not, that's okay.

1018

1048
00:55:40,520 --> 00:55:43,160
Speaker 1: little interesting to me, So I would I would classify

1049
00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:46,880
Speaker 1: it as don't embarrass me. If you've ever been a

1050
00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:49,000
Speaker 1: part of a team, if you've ever been a part

1051
00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:51,840
Speaker 1: of a group of people doing anything, and like you,

1052
00:55:51,840 --> 00:55:57,400
Speaker 1: you stand up for them, you defend them publicly, and

1053
00:55:57,440 --> 00:56:01,560
Speaker 1: then once you're done touting their ability publicly, you know

1054
00:56:01,680 --> 00:56:03,879
Speaker 1: you secretly still have some doubts about them. So once

1055
00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:05,680
Speaker 1: you get behind closed doors, you look at them and

1056
00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:08,960
Speaker 1: you say, don't embarrass me. Don't embarrass me. You know,

1057
00:56:09,160 --> 00:56:11,640
Speaker 1: if I'm one of your friends and you're about to

1058
00:56:11,640 --> 00:56:14,480
Speaker 1: go race tomorrow and I go talk trash on every

1059

1060

Speaker 1: I may or may not believe it. But if I've

1061
00:56:19,040 --> 00:56:21,399
Speaker 1: got some doubt, I'm telling you morning of race, don't

1062
00:56:21,440 --> 00:56:24,839
Speaker 1: you embarrass me? I backed you don't embarrass me. Well,

1063
00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:27,919
Speaker 1: that's LSU fans with Brian Kelly right now. They will

1064
00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:29,920
Speaker 1: defend him right now till the ends of the earth.

1065
00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:31,960
Speaker 1: But it's not that they don't have doubts. It's just

1066
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:35,719
Speaker 1: that you got to understand the LSU fan base. This

1067
00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:38,279
Speaker 1: is a very prideful group of people. It's a very

1068
00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:41,879
Speaker 1: unique part of the country. I love it. I've been

1069
00:56:41,920 --> 00:56:44,520
Speaker 1: accepted in that part of the country. Ever since I

1070
00:56:44,600 --> 00:56:47,680
Speaker 1: did this, I've been accepted by those folks. Love them

1071
00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:50,640
Speaker 1: to death. They know that. I talk to several of

1072
00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:54,120
Speaker 1: them that I've met through doing this show. And here's

1073
00:56:54,160 --> 00:56:57,120
Speaker 1: the thing I know about LSU folks. There is a

1074
00:56:57,320 --> 00:57:02,239
Speaker 1: chorus they sing publicly that sounds sometimes radically different than

1075
00:57:02,280 --> 00:57:05,960
Speaker 1: the one they see privately when it's just themselves, because

1076
00:57:06,040 --> 00:57:09,440
Speaker 1: the pride of the LSU fan base will not allow

1077
00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:14,799
Speaker 1: them to publicly portray vulnerability, even if it's there, because

1078
00:57:14,800 --> 00:57:16,760
Speaker 1: they're not about to deal with it from Bama folks

1079
00:57:17,120 --> 00:57:19,400
Speaker 1: and Florida folks and A and M folks. They're not

1080
00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:22,240
Speaker 1: going to listen to it. So they're going straight up

1081
00:57:22,480 --> 00:57:24,840
Speaker 1: shield in the air, United front when they talk about

1082
00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:28,800
Speaker 1: LSU publicly. Now when they're private, they'll let me in

1083
00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:32,640
Speaker 1: the midst occasionally. And I know, I know when they

1084
00:57:32,680 --> 00:57:34,880
Speaker 1: won the SEC West the first year and everyone thought

1085
00:57:34,880 --> 00:57:36,400
Speaker 1: they were off to the races, and then they were

1086
00:57:36,560 --> 00:57:41,280
Speaker 1: historically bad defensively last year. That doesn't accidentally happen. That's

1087
00:57:41,320 --> 00:57:43,600
Speaker 1: not a blip on the radar screen. That's a fundamental

1088
00:57:43,600 --> 00:57:46,760
Speaker 1: problem and it's got to be rectified. You can't ever

1089
00:57:46,840 --> 00:57:51,480
Speaker 1: be that bad at LSU defensively. Have a Heisman Trophy

1090
00:57:51,520 --> 00:57:54,880
Speaker 1: winning quarterback come through and it's totally wasted because we

1091
00:57:54,960 --> 00:57:59,160
Speaker 1: can't get off the field. That's terrible. So it's not

1092
00:57:59,200 --> 00:58:02,560
Speaker 1: that you trash the entire coaching staff. You do take

1093
00:58:02,600 --> 00:58:05,480
Speaker 1: the defensive staff and totally overhaul it, and they did

1094
00:58:05,520 --> 00:58:07,840
Speaker 1: a wonderful job. There is no defensive staff in college

1095
00:58:07,840 --> 00:58:13,840
Speaker 1: football more upgraded year over year than LSU's. They did

1096
00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:16,160
Speaker 1: not make the moves they needed to make in the portal.

1097
00:58:16,400 --> 00:58:19,320
Speaker 1: Their defensive line will not be to the standard that

1098
00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:23,680
Speaker 1: LSU normally is. Doesn't mean that's the end all be all.

1099
00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:26,800
Speaker 1: Just means they got to be really, really good and

1100
00:58:26,800 --> 00:58:28,760
Speaker 1: squeezing every ounce of potential out of this team this

1101
00:58:28,840 --> 00:58:31,160
Speaker 1: year that they can. So you know, you get your

1102
00:58:31,160 --> 00:58:33,600
Speaker 1: preview magazines coming out right now, and I haven't looked

1103
00:58:33,600 --> 00:58:35,680
Speaker 1: at him yet. I would imagine somewhere like the ten

1104
00:58:35,720 --> 00:58:39,680
Speaker 1: to twenty range is where LSU will be. LSU fans

1105
00:58:39,680 --> 00:58:42,480
Speaker 1: have a certain standard for their program. They should. The

1106
00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:45,560
Speaker 1: last three coaches they've had there have won championships. So

1107
00:58:45,720 --> 00:58:48,120
Speaker 1: they look at their program and say, if we've got

1108
00:58:48,120 --> 00:58:51,800
Speaker 1: it right, it feels like most anyone within reason can

1109
00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:56,520
Speaker 1: walk in here and win. Accurate. Yes, accurate helps to

1110
00:58:56,520 --> 00:58:59,360
Speaker 1: play the title game in the Superdome, but accurate. So

1111
00:58:59,400 --> 00:59:01,680
Speaker 1: Brian Kelly, Brian Kelly's done it before. Who hadn't won

1112
00:59:01,720 --> 00:59:03,480
Speaker 1: a title, but he's won at a high level before.

1113
00:59:03,760 --> 00:59:07,560
Speaker 1: This should be a perfect match. And I'm not saying

1114
00:59:07,600 --> 00:59:13,040
Speaker 1: it's not. They're not saying it's not. They're defending him publicly,

1115
00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:16,440
Speaker 1: but behind the scenes, if they could talk to Brian Kelly,

1116
00:59:16,560 --> 00:59:18,600
Speaker 1: a lot of those LSU folks will say, do not

1117
00:59:18,680 --> 00:59:24,000
Speaker 1: embarrass us, don't do this. We got your back last year,

1118
00:59:24,640 --> 00:59:27,040
Speaker 1: worried us, rattled us a little bit, but you made

1119
00:59:27,080 --> 00:59:31,200
Speaker 1: the staff moves, got your back. Don't you embarrass us.

1120
00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:34,520
Speaker 1: Why didn't you land more kids out of the portal?

1121
00:59:34,520 --> 00:59:36,600
Speaker 1: You know what? Whatever, Maybe you've got a plan, don't

1122
00:59:36,640 --> 00:59:38,960
Speaker 1: you embarrass us. Can't have it happened two years in

1123
00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:42,040
Speaker 1: a row. Can't have it. And so they open up

1124
00:59:42,080 --> 00:59:45,280
Speaker 1: with USC that's that Sunday night standalone game. There the
