A big story of the day, guys, 129 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 5: obviously heavy there in Michigan, head football coach Charon Moore 130 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:26,280 Speaker 5: has been fired with cause by the university after an 131 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 5: investigation show that he had an improper relationship with a 132 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 5: staff member. Details show coming out. You know, we're trying 133 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,720 Speaker 5: to get as much as we can. But a few 134 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 5: hours after that story came out, it was reported that 135 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 5: more was detained by police in Michigan and later it 136 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 5: turned over to a second area police department for doing 137 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 5: something he probably shouldn't have done. And that's all we're 138 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,040 Speaker 5: gonna say. If we're still getting more information, and uh, 139 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 5: it's not looking good there in Michigan. But in order 140 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 5: to spend the conversation forward, because if you missed the 141 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:02,039 Speaker 5: first conversation about the act itself and what that means 142 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,720 Speaker 5: for the collegiate there, for the college in Michigan and 143 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:06,720 Speaker 5: college in general, check out the podcast. You know, we 144 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 5: have it all up there in a minute. But moving forward. Now, 145 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 5: Michigan has an interim head football coach. Nobody really expects 146 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 5: him to get the full time gig. Who knows if 147 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 5: they'll have a new head coach for this upcoming season, 148 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 5: but the plan is eventually, Michigan being Michigan, They're gonna 149 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:26,119 Speaker 5: get a very, very prominent name at some point here 150 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:30,559 Speaker 5: in the future, which here reads to the next question. 151 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 2: Guys. 152 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 5: Michigan is one of the bigger brands in all of football, 153 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 5: not just in college but in football period. Big brand, 154 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 5: big expectations. The problem is they don't really win all 155 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 5: that big.

Is the head football coach at 160 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 5: the University of Michigan still a plumb job in your opinion? 161 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 4: And Kelvin as you know, being a columnist and TV 162 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 4: guy and radio guy in Detroit for twenty years, you 163 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 4: know I had two sides to Michigan because I always 164 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 4: thought that's so crazy, as big as Michigan football is 165 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 4: and the tradition and both sham Beckler as a statue, 166 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 4: he never even won a national championship, and he's revered 167 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 4: in Michigan and it was still about the Big Ten 168 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 4: and beating Ohio State madd at Moore because they. 169 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,319 Speaker 2: Didn't win national championships. They really didn't. 170 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 4: And as much as I pushed back against that, I 171 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 4: will defend that Michigan is a blue blood and one 172 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 4: of the pieces of the fabric of college football, from 173 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 4: the winged helmet, to the big House, to all the 174 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 4: stuff that the amazing blue all the stuff that goes into it. 175 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:55,680 Speaker 4: I don't think they won enough or you know what 176 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:58,839 Speaker 4: I mean, or it should be celebrated, or the Alabama 177 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:01,840 Speaker 4: or some these other schools that have won a ton 178 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 4: of championships compared to Michigan. But I can't discount or 179 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 4: pool pool the Michigan football job or their tradition and 180 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 4: their place with the blue bloods of college football. I 181 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 4: do believe that Michigan is in the same conversation with 182 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,959 Speaker 4: Alabama and USC and you know, and these kind of 183 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 4: schools and Notre Dame and all that those are the 184 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 4: schools that are the fabric of college football. 185 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 1: I absolutely one thousand percent agree. A couple of reason 186 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: whyse we talked about Rob he doesn't think it's anything. Yeah, 187 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 1: we here side, it's craziness. We want to hear from 188 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 1: you though, though you're right that they didn't win a 189 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 1: bunch of national championships. But I think one thing we 190 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 1: disregard now because everything's about the BCS didn't turn college 191 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 1: football playoffs. 192 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 2: Winning a bowl used to be huge. 193 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:49,839 Speaker 1: The Rose Bowl was huge, like that was a massive deal. 194 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,200 Speaker 1: Sugar Bowls were massive deals, you know, all these bowl games. 195 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 1: So for years, if Michigan would win and you win 196 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 1: the Big Ten and then you come over here and 197 00:09:57,880 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 1: you play the West Coast and you play USC, or 198 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 1: you some team in Washington and from the Pac twelve 199 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: and the Rose Ball, that was a big deal. So 200 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 1: to have that brand on a massive day when America 201 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:11,559 Speaker 1: everybody's watching college football and you're seeing that Maze and blue. 202 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:13,959 Speaker 1: They're playing hell to the victors, you know what I mean. 203 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 1: And it's Michigan that created a huge, massive brand. Having 204 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 1: some Heisman Trophy winners as well, you know, Desmond Howard, 205 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 1: Charles Woodson, so that adds to the lure as well. 206 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 1: I absolutely believe it's a great gig. It's a great city. 207 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,559 Speaker 1: Obviously bias some born and raised there. 208 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 4: But for somebody from New York who didn't grow up 209 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:36,719 Speaker 4: with college football, like I'm not you. 210 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 2: It's a great feel. It is a big deal. 211 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: So I think as of the last twenty five thirty years, 212 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: you start to get more of the you know these up. 213 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 2: A couple of schools that start to pop up. 214 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 1: Clemsons, Clemson's popped up over the last fifteen years or so. 215 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 1: You know, Florida State in the nineties, Miami and the 216 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 1: late eighties, in the nineties, but throughout those sixties, seventies, 217 00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 1: eighties and even nineties, Michigan came a really big deal. 218 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: And I agree eight and four was kind of regular 219 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,319 Speaker 1: when I was growing up there. Nine in three was okay, 220 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 1: you know I lost to Appalachi and stay, don't bring that. 221 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 1: Why you come on, man, why you gotta go there? 222 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 1: That wasn't Rich right there? Rich Rod Reagan. I no, no, 223 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: that wasn't Rich. 224 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,199 Speaker 2: That was Rich. I wasn't Rick Brady Hope. I mean, 225 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 2: uh Brat Brady. No, no, no, Before that, why am 226 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 2: I Martin? 227 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 4: Was that Lloyd That Lloyd Car? That was the beginning. 228 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 4: That was the end, the end beginning of d M 229 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:27,960 Speaker 4: for Lloyd Car. When they lost that game, man, that 230 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 4: was crazy. I remember when Brady Holk was there. His 231 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 4: nickname was Brady Joe. Yeah, it was bad. 232 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 1: It was bad for a little while there, But so 233 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 1: that is the dirty secret. I will agree that Michigan 234 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 1: hasn't won quite like your thought, but I still think 235 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 1: it's a powerhouse. And I still think it's a massive job, 236 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:45,960 Speaker 1: a massive get, and a great opportunity. 237 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 2: The other thing about Michigan, like I it's one hundred 238 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 2: percent true. 239 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,080 Speaker 7: If you if you lost like Lloyd Carr, you lose 240 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 7: two games in Beatle House did every so often, they'll 241 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:56,719 Speaker 7: build a statue for you. 242 00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 2: You're good to go. 243 00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:00,960 Speaker 7: Same thing with for really being honests Jim har It 244 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 7: was ugly before COVID. 245 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 4: Remember Jim Harball too had to take a pay cut 246 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 4: at Michigan. 247 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 2: I remember vividly. 248 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 7: But the thing about it is in this day and 249 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:13,679 Speaker 7: age with nil money, yeah, Michigan in them. In terms 250 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:17,679 Speaker 7: of what makes a competitive college football program today, in 251 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 7: a world where Indiana is the number one team in 252 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:25,199 Speaker 7: the nation, there's no excuse. And honestly, like last year 253 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 7: was ridiculous that you miss a program like Michigan should 254 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:29,840 Speaker 7: have a quarterback. 255 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:33,559 Speaker 1: Now, I completely agree Jim Harball created that we don't 256 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 1: need a quarterback thing. We just run and play defense. 257 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 1: And now it because remember, Michigan was quarterback you for 258 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 1: a long time. They're putting a lot of guys in that. 259 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 1: I'm not saying they're all great, but they were putting 260 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:45,319 Speaker 1: them in the league. Chad Hitty, Brian Greasy, obviously, Tom Brady, 261 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: Drew Henson. They're putting some guys. I'm probably missing two 262 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: or three more. They were putting guys in the league quarterback. 263 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 1: Then for some reason they just got about quarterback. 264 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 7: If Michigan can spend ten million dollars on Bryce Underwood, 265 00:12:57,920 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 7: there would be a high level coach at you. 266 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 4: No, no, no doubt, Rob g You yeah, what's your 267 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 4: push back? This pushback is that Michigan has gone. But 268 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 4: it's trash, right, Rob. 269 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:12,199 Speaker 5: What there's always some nuance to everything, But no, they're 270 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 5: all of fame or he sucks. There's no middle ground. 271 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 1: Not. 272 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 5: All the way eractly, and everything you guys said is accurate, 273 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 5: all three of you about Michigan and what it means 274 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 5: they're and for all of those reasons, why I believe 275 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,680 Speaker 5: that it is not that great of a job, Because 276 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 5: you have all of this tradition and all this nil money, 277 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 5: and everybody's always excited about Michigan. And you know, if 278 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 5: you win Ohio State, you know it's you're the best 279 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 5: thing to is lifes bread. But if you lose, then 280 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 5: we got to get you up out of there. There's 281 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:43,840 Speaker 5: a lot of there's a lot of pressure building around 282 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 5: the community. Michigan carries themselves like their Alabama, like their 283 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 5: Notre Dame, like their Ohio State, and they're not they 284 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 5: don't win. 285 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right, Notre Dame has it won Michigan. 286 00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 7: But you're talking about Michigan carries LIKEAAMA and Georgia of 287 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 7: the last two years. 288 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 3: Yea. 289 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 5: So here are the four you know, big jobs that 290 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 5: were available this past offseason.

Rob g of course, a Southern California UCLA slappy. 413 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:19,199 Speaker 2: They just told me he would take USC over Michigan. 414 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:20,879 Speaker 2: I say UCLA, though I did not say that. 415 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, what we were talking about in there? He said, 416 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 1: which would you rather have USC? 417 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,880 Speaker 5: Or nobody cares about? USC? Can get paid to do nothing? 418 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:29,920 Speaker 2: He wants that. He wants no expectations. 419 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,360 Speaker 5: I want either all the expectations or none at all. 420 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,680 Speaker 4: Andre in Massachusetts, you're on the odd couple of Fox 421 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 4: Sports Radio. 422 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 2: What's up, Drake? You doing? 423 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:42,640 Speaker 9: Thank thanks taking a call. As Billy Jean King once said, 424 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:44,680 Speaker 9: pressure is a privilege, okay, and that's what you'll get 425 00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 9: at Michigan. I do believe it's still a blue blood, 426 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 9: a plumb job, first of all, because you have history 427 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 9: to lean back on. 428 00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 8: You know, you. 429 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:56,120 Speaker 9: Mentioned the football championships going back to ninety seven to one. 430 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 9: But also let's give the SAB five some love. 431 00:20:58,320 --> 00:20:59,040 Speaker 6: Okay. 432 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 9: That was a thru error culture, cultural movement. And I 433 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:05,199 Speaker 9: look at what coaches can do. How Nate Oates. I 434 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 9: know it's basketball, but I know how Nate Oates built 435 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 9: up the Alabama basketball program leaning on the football tradition, 436 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 9: so there's there's there's plenty to draw from there. But 437 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 9: it's a dangerous job, as you've noticed. If you can't 438 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 9: get past Ohio State for whatever reason, and they're going 439 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 9: to be a juggernaut, they will get you up and 440 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:25,359 Speaker 9: out of there. And so Harball was the correct man 441 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,360 Speaker 9: for the job because you had the cachet, you had 442 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 9: the the name recognition. But even Harball, it took him 443 00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 9: time to get over the top. 444 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 2: So it happened in order to get over the top. 445 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 2: But that's another story. 446 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 9: Allege you okay, Rob to your point, Rich Brod didn't 447 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:42,440 Speaker 9: work there. It can't just be you know, the coach 448 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:45,360 Speaker 9: is previous who weren't big names and then couldn't beat 449 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 9: Ohio State, which you know, there's no shame in it. 450 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 6: It's difficult. 451 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 9: You'll fill all out and get the heck out of there. 452 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 9: So it has to be the right person, a Michigan man, 453 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:56,880 Speaker 9: and then somebody with the as I said, the standing 454 00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 9: to get to Beatlehouse State and go and go forward. 455 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,120 Speaker 1: Thanks taking the appreciate you appreciate you, rodre Man.

It's an organization that hasn't operated well. 489 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,120 Speaker 8: And I'm going to tell you, and you know, Rob, 490 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:33,159 Speaker 8: you've known me for twenty years. You can vouch for 491 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,640 Speaker 8: my integrity as a journalist. I'm not a Raider fan. 492 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 8: But you know, Mark Davis is an owner that's willing 493 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,439 Speaker 8: to spend any amount of money. He's paying tens of 494 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:45,160 Speaker 8: millions to people who don't even work for him anymore. 495 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,399 Speaker 8: And everybody wants an owner who will stay out of 496 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:52,360 Speaker 8: the way and let things happen. But the problem is 497 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:54,680 Speaker 8: is there's been a lot of bad advice. Is he's 498 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,160 Speaker 8: learned how to be an owner. His dad didn't train him, 499 00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:00,159 Speaker 8: like Jerry is trading his son in Dallas. And so 500 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 8: you know, there's been you know, there's been a learning curve. 501 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 8: But here's the problem. Pete Carroll is a great coach. 502 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 8: You can make an argument he's one of the top 503 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 8: five all time when you look at the fact of 504 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 8: what he did in college and what he did in 505 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 8: the pro and everywhere he has succeeded, and he has 506 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 8: been elite. He's been allowed to steer the ship and 507 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:24,159 Speaker 8: be true North. And for people who say, well, what 508 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:27,160 Speaker 8: about the last you know, the last little bit in Seattle, 509 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 8: the organization was going through a shift and he was 510 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 8: no longer that voice. And so everywhere he hasn't been 511 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:38,160 Speaker 8: in charge, they've not been successful. And everywhere he has, 512 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:42,160 Speaker 8: they'd have. So they brought him in and he has 513 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,080 Speaker 8: not been the voice. He's not been the True North. 514 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:49,720 Speaker 8: And so anyone who's shocked by that, I mean by 515 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,439 Speaker 8: the results, well this is you know, they've they've not 516 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 8: been elite when he's not the boss. And the sad 517 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,439 Speaker 8: part is is why in the world wouldn't he be. 518 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 8: I mean it goes back to Antonio Pierce, who a 519 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 8: lot of people owe an apology to. You know, he 520 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:06,639 Speaker 8: didn't want Luke Getzy, he didn't want all of the 521 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:10,040 Speaker 8: staff he was handcuffed with, and then you know, Pete 522 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,640 Speaker 8: Carroll gets Chip Kelly, who by the way, I want 523 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:17,440 Speaker 8: to give Chip credit. You know, everybody's got bosses, and 524 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,360 Speaker 8: but Chip Kelly came in and this was Chip Kelly's offense. 525 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 8: Chip ran it. He may been the head coach, it 526 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:24,200 Speaker 8: was Chip's office. 527 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,800 Speaker 4: Okay, but here let me say this, Hondo and I 528 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:28,119 Speaker 4: get your points. 529 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:32,680 Speaker 2: But if this team was what's their record? Now where 530 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:32,919 Speaker 2: are we? 531 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 5: Okay? 532 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:36,240 Speaker 4: So if they were eleven and two, no one would 533 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 4: be talking about that Pete has Pete. Pete wouldn't have 534 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:41,639 Speaker 4: anything to do with this. This is about Chip Kelly. 535 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:43,879 Speaker 4: This is about all the other people who are making 536 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 4: it the decisions right that we would not have that conversation. 537 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 4: Pete Carroll would get credit for what has happened. Now 538 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,439 Speaker 4: here's my Beef'll tell. 539 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:56,240 Speaker 8: You why I disagree with you on that. I'm gonna 540 00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:57,640 Speaker 8: I'm gonna vehemently disagree. 541 00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 4: Do you think that it'd be eleven in two in 542 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:01,159 Speaker 4: his first two years and the talk would not be 543 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 4: about how great Pete Carroll was to turn his team. 544 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:06,399 Speaker 8: Eleven in two. If they were eleven and two, I 545 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:09,439 Speaker 8: would be talking about the tremendous job that Chip Kelly 546 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:11,120 Speaker 8: is doing, he's running the offense. 547 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 2: Well, pould get credit? Hando, What a guy? What a resurgence? 548 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 2: Why is working for him? And not Bill? 549 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 5: Bill? 550 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 8: He would be getting a ton of credit. 551 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, I don't want to get too bogged down 552 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 2: with that. Yeah, because because I really want to get 553 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:24,760 Speaker 2: to this. 554 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 8: No, but wait a minute, wait a minute, because I 555 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 8: don't want to get over shouted. You brought me on 556 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 8: as a guest. I want to clarify something. I would 557 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:34,960 Speaker 8: absolutely be giving Pete a ton of credit, and I 558 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:37,280 Speaker 8: would be giving it to Chip though also I wouldn't 559 00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:40,159 Speaker 8: I wouldn't be there's blame here for everybody, and there 560 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 8: would also be credit. 561 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:42,880 Speaker 2: All right, here's the other part. 562 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:45,919 Speaker 4: So your column you wrote, and you weren't advocating for 563 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:48,320 Speaker 4: Pete Carroll to be fired, even though I think that 564 00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:51,120 Speaker 4: he should be fired, even after a terrible first year, 565 00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 4: just because everything to me is not right. 566 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:55,840 Speaker 2: But that's not what you advocated in the column. 567 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 4: But you said, if the management and uh Davis decided 568 00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 4: to make that Mark Davis decide to make a decision, 569 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:08,040 Speaker 4: you would want to see the Raiders rehire John Gruden. 570 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:13,160 Speaker 4: And I could not disagree more that John Gruden deserves 571 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 4: some other another opportunity with the Raiders. We already know 572 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:19,400 Speaker 4: the history of all the other stuff and the emails 573 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 4: or whatever, and people can dispute whether or not they 574 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 4: should have been released to what he wrote those emails 575 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:28,720 Speaker 4: those were. He's not saying somebody wrote those emails. In 576 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 4: his account, he admits he wrote those. And the question 577 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:37,680 Speaker 4: is it's not about the authenticity of it. Make your 578 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 4: cage for John Gruden, because I just don't see one. 579 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,439 Speaker 8: Okay, So let's go back, and I would tell you 580 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 8: this the first thing. If they decide to fire Pete, 581 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 8: and I don't think they should. I think they should 582 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:50,359 Speaker 8: let him be in charge. But if they decide to 583 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 8: move on with Pete, then I think the next thing 584 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,920 Speaker 8: that has to happen is Mark needs to sit down 585 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 8: with Tom Brady and say do you want to run 586 00:27:56,560 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 8: the franchise? And if tom Brady says no, and he 587 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 8: says yes, and he says, you got to be in 588 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 8: the building. If you don't want to be in the building, 589 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:06,679 Speaker 8: you're not going to run it, and then go do 590 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:11,399 Speaker 8: the ultimate Raider thing. Go get a guy who's suing 591 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 8: the NFL and do something to rejuvenate your fan base. 592 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,119 Speaker 8: Not all of them are going to be excited. But 593 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 8: you know what, if you're not going to do the 594 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 8: sensible thing, you fire everybody every year. If you're not 595 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:25,960 Speaker 8: going to finally say, okay, Pete, this has been your 596 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 8: track record. Tom doesn't want to run it or be 597 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,640 Speaker 8: in the building, then you run it and we'll give 598 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 8: you your two years. But if you're going to keep 599 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,639 Speaker 8: firing people every year, then you might as well do 600 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 8: a raider thing. Go get the guy who's suing the league. 601 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 8: Go get the guy that you know what. Okay, fine, 602 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 8: we're going to sue the league. We're gonna go be 603 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 8: the bad guys again. Because here's the problem with with 604 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 8: what about the three? 605 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 2: Well, what about the football Hondo? 606 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 4: Since he left Tampa Bay, he's twenty two and thirty one, 607 00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 4: he hasn't won anything. And I get it, you might 608 00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 4: like his commentary and he knows about quarterback act to 609 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 4: all the other stuff and his work. 610 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 2: On television, radio and the whole point. 611 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 4: But what I'm saying, why should he get another opportunity 612 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 4: he didn't do well? 613 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 2: That that's my issue. 614 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 8: Okay, then let me just finish. Here's the whole point 615 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 8: is that I wouldn't make this move. But if you're 616 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 8: a dysfunctional organization that just fires everybody every year anyways, 617 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 8: then go do a Raider move because it won't work. 618 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 8: But this is what the organization has come down to. 619 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 8: The Raiders have got to fix the get this this 620 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 8: organization on one page. They've got to get it going 621 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 8: in one direction. And if they're willing to do that's 622 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,440 Speaker 8: why I say you start with Tom you want to 623 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 8: run it fantastic, then you would. I wouldn't hire Gruden. 624 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 8: I would go get the guy, a young coach that 625 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 8: they want, or maybe a Robert Sala and then do 626 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 8: whatever you want to do. But if you're going to 627 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 8: continue to be dysfunction then it to act like the 628 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 8: Raiders of old. Because here's the biggest problem nobody's talking about. 629 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:06,120 Speaker 5: Rob. 630 00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 8: When you and I were in Detroit, the fans there, 631 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 8: they were the lovable losers. They still showed up because 632 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 8: that was okay. This is a fan base that cut 633 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 8: its teeth with championships, and you sell them every year. 634 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 8: Just win baby, and you've got twenty years of mediocrity 635 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 8: and you have a whole generation now who's grown up 636 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 8: with you not winning. You got I mean, I've had 637 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:33,720 Speaker 8: dad to email me their kids won't even go to 638 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 8: games with them. And so if you want to rejuvenate 639 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 8: a franchise that's becoming angry and apathetic, you go do 640 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 8: a raider move. Go do something that puts them in 641 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:48,800 Speaker 8: fire in saying there's blood in our veins. The point is, 642 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:52,360 Speaker 8: I don't think Gruden's the answer either, but this organization 643 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 8: has to do something to get its identity back. And 644 00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 8: if you're not gonna stick with a guy who's won 645 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 8: championships and the ros and championships in college, a guy 646 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 8: who comes with the track record in the resume of 647 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 8: Pete Carroll and let him run it, then just go 648 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 8: do something raider. But right now the organization doesn't have 649 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:14,000 Speaker 8: an identity. What would you guys say of it?

We got 660 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 2: a short time. 661 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 1: One of the things you can start to consider, and 662 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 1: it sucks because you may have to do it. 663 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:41,440 Speaker 2: He's your best player. 664 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 1: But do you consider trading Max Crosby start to get 665 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,920 Speaker 1: some some you know, some assets, some younger people, maybe 666 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:48,880 Speaker 1: lose some of the payroll. Do you is that something 667 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 1: you would consider because people have always said he's probably 668 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 1: tired of losing there. 669 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:55,280 Speaker 8: Well, I can tell you this. I have know Max 670 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 8: a long time. He loves being the raider. Raider. His 671 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 8: whole body is tatted with raiders up. I've known him 672 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 8: back since he was a freshman in college and he 673 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 8: wants to be there. But last year when he got 674 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:10,160 Speaker 8: his new deal, it wasn't about money with him. He 675 00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:14,960 Speaker 8: is an elite football player. He is a unicorn and 676 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 8: if he were on a better team, he would be 677 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:20,600 Speaker 8: discussed as the best defender in the NFL. And what 678 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 8: I and what I would say to you is this, 679 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:27,480 Speaker 8: It's not fair because Max isn't chasing the dollars. He 680 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 8: has tens of millions in business investments outside of the 681 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:34,560 Speaker 8: NFL because he's tremendously intelligent, with his money. This is 682 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:38,600 Speaker 8: not about money. He wants to win and the Raiders 683 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:42,239 Speaker 8: owe this to him.
