Had it 27 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: delivered the moment I put down my older child.

We should 59 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 1: get to some questions. Let's do it. 60 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,079 Speaker 3: I'm ready, let's dive. He right, I got my sound. 61 00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 3: I actually charge up my iPad here. 62 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 1: Congratulations, Skippy, you've got mail. You've got mail on the Solid. 63 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:08,520 Speaker 3: Verbal as often as we can Dan and actually once 64 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 3: a week on Patreon. Yes, we like to pay homage 65 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 3: those of you who write in to the Solid Verbal 66 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 3: question line. That's soliverbleotgmail dot com. Folks will leave messages 67 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 3: on Twitter. Folks leave messages on discord, over on Patreon, 68 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 3: actually on Patreon proper. When we put up a post 69 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 3: yep we're not getting text messages. Thankfully, that's one fewer 70 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 3: places we have to check. 71 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 2: But you name it. 72 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 3: All modern communication channels are factored in here when it 73 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 3: comes to our Q and A episodes. So, without further ado, 74 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 3: where we going first? 75 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: All right, let's start here. I'm gonna give priority to 76 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 1: our premium elite, you know, certified verbalers. We've got a 77 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 1: group of alphas here that are asking us questions, so 78 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 1: they get priority. Last year, Jen asks the over under 79 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: Michigan's win total was seven and a half. They're twelve wins, 80 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: surprised a lot of people. Which teams do you think 81 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:09,839 Speaker 1: are going to surprise everyone this year, either with far 82 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: more wins than are expected or with far fewer than expected. 83 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: And for the record, we are answering or attempting to 84 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 1: answer this question before springball, before summer, before injuries, before 85 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: any late transfers, coaching moves, anything like that. So to you, 86 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 1: what qualifies a team as a surprise, like somebody who 87 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 1: is expected to be bad expected to be good, whatever, 88 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 1: And what are the pathways that let's stay positive at 89 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: first that a team can outperform the conventional wisdom of 90 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 1: their future. 91 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I mean again, you said it. It's March 92 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 3: the tenth, as most people listen to this show or 93 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 3: this part of this show, so it's before springball. There 94 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,159 Speaker 3: will probably be another wave of transfers at some point, 95 00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 3: just not going to stop. So that's another thing that 96 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,359 Speaker 3: will we'll need to factor in at some point, but 97 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 3: at least at present March the tenth. One thing that 98 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,279 Speaker 3: I think we can use as a guide is returning production, 99 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 3: which teams are bringing back a lot. So on the 100 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 3: show that we did on Tuesday, we talked a lot 101 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,279 Speaker 3: about Stanford. Stanford went three to nine last year. Stanford's 102 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:25,239 Speaker 3: road schedule in twenty twenty two is in all that optimal. However, 103 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:30,280 Speaker 3: they're like third in the nation with respect to returning production. Right, 104 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 3: that's a team that is of interest to me. I 105 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,479 Speaker 3: could see that happening. Another team that kind of falls 106 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 3: into the same category as Florida State. Florida State brings 107 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 3: a lot back. Florida State didn't make the Bowl game, 108 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,159 Speaker 3: you know, relative to last year. I think Florida State's 109 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:47,719 Speaker 3: got to be better than they were a year ago, 110 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,840 Speaker 3: but what is the expectation. We haven't seen over unders yet, 111 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:53,159 Speaker 3: so we're kind of flying blind. 112 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 2: Yep. 113 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 3: From that standpoint, Stanford I think is an easy candidate. 114 00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 3: Florida State I think will continue to improve. That's another 115 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 3: the one that jumps out to me as for teams 116 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,599 Speaker 3: beyond that that could maybe exceed expectations. I'm actually quite 117 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 3: interested in Pitt. Pitt, of course loses Canny Pickett. Canny 118 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 3: Picktbull most likely going to be a first round pick. 119 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 3: Mark Whipple goes over to Nebraska, but Pitt still has 120 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 3: Jordan Addison. 121 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 1: They brought over. 122 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 3: Keaton's Slovas, who I think could be a good plug 123 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 3: and play guy. Sure, I can pull up Pitt's schedule, 124 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 3: but my guess is that it's fairly workable. 125 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:32,280 Speaker 1: So that's of. 126 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:33,719 Speaker 3: Interest to me. Are there any of that jump out 127 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:33,919 Speaker 3: to you? 128 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 1: Sometimes teams who lost a quarterback early and have a 129 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 1: record that was not necessarily representative of their ceiling of 130 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 1: their potential, like Boston College with Phil dri Khovic, who 131 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,599 Speaker 1: I know because of his size and physical ceiling, has 132 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:51,160 Speaker 1: garnered some NFL draft talk for next year's cycle, and 133 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 1: they finished what six and six and almost pulled off 134 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 1: wins against good two very good teams like Clemson with 135 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: you know, Dennis gross Out, like guys that shouldn't be 136 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: winning those types of games. So this is year now, 137 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:06,159 Speaker 1: year three of Jeff Hafley. I think he just got 138 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 1: the extension, so right, it's returning production. And it's also 139 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 1: to me, a team that even Miami, Right, Miami, we 140 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: don't really have a great concept for, but they certainly 141 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 1: look like a different team offensively once Tyler van Dijk. Now, 142 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: of course, different staff, different offense presumably, but that to 143 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: me is interesting when a team made a quarterback change 144 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: that paid off in big ways and just in terms 145 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: of teams developing and improving in a sort of natural state, 146 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: like I think Michigan State could fall off because they 147 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 1: had some breaks, and I still think they're going to 148 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 1: be very good. But eleven win good, I think, and 149 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 1: that's with the Bowl game. I think that's asking a lot. 150 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 1: Indiana made a lot of wholesale changes. I don't think 151 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: they're as bad as their zero to nine in the 152 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: Big Ten record might indicate, and just I mean, they 153 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 1: lost a ton of transfers. We'll see, but that's another team. 154 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: I think that's that's due Nebraska. Obviously a lot has 155 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 1: been talked about how they are better than their record 156 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 1: indicated last year. Well, we talked about that on the 157 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 1: three and nine episode. Other teams that are going to 158 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: make significant jumps in that same way, you know what, 159 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: Michigan went from seven and a half to twelve. I 160 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: actually think Michigan's do to fall off a bit back 161 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 1: in the other direction. Yeah, yeah, we talked about lost 162 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 1: lost a ton of key pieces on defense. They lose 163 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 1: Josh Gaddis and now look, they could be getting better 164 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: at quarterback full time with JJ McCarthy if that move, 165 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 1: which is looking like it's going to be the case, happens. 166 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: I don't think Arizona State has the makings of an 167 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 1: eight win program after what they've lost both in the 168 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 1: on the coaching staff and now at quarterback with Jayden Daniels. 169 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: I think Arizona is a team that could jump up 170 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: and make some more noise as a one and eleven program. 171 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,079 Speaker 1: I think they could win four or five. He's just 172 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: a portal hard yeah, hit me. 173 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 3: I think Clemson could be an interesting study here. 174 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 1: This is Clemson's all over the place for me. 175 00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 3: Continue Yeah, I mean I'm trying to avoid purpose league 176 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 3: teams that had coaching changes or of new coaches, because frankly, 177 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:04,199 Speaker 3: that could. 178 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 1: Go any direction. You have no idea. 179 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 3: Clemson's interesting because the top guy, Dabostwueeny's still there, but 180 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 3: a lot of the support staff, top assistants, the ad 181 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 3: guys went everywhere, and so they're rebuilding that thing from 182 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 3: the inside out. The season last year was quote unquote underwhelming, 183 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 3: even though they won ten games whatever. It was so 184 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 3: still a pretty good team. They had a ton of 185 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,679 Speaker 3: injuries to deal with, but at least on the coaching side, 186 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 3: they're going to be starting over in many respects, and 187 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 3: that that, like you said, kind of all over the 188 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 3: map could go almost any direction. 189 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 1: Ole Miss is a team that I think could jump 190 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:43,559 Speaker 1: back a couple games, winning ten games with an experienced quarterback. 191 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:45,959 Speaker 1: Now it's the Jackson Dart led team. I think they're 192 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: going to have a terrific offense. But I just think 193 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 1: there is a margin for err involved with ole Miss. 194 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 1: I mean, look, they got to ten wins with a 195 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 1: couple of super close calls, notably that Arkansas game, and 196 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 1: that's going to be the case every year. Texas A 197 00:09:58,040 --> 00:09:59,559 Speaker 1: and M is interesting to me. Another one of those 198 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: teams that dealt with a very early quarterback injury, and 199 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 1: for better or worse, doubt Kyle Zada was probably at 200 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: best an eight win quarterback, which is where Texas A 201 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 1: and M finished. They now add Max Johnson. They've got 202 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: interesting young options. You know, Haines King is presumably healthy, 203 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: and with what they've done these past couple of years 204 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,199 Speaker 1: on the recruiting trail, they should be deeper than ever. 205 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 1: And who did Texas A and M early on? I 206 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: think they have Miami. I think they host Miami. Yep, 207 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:28,320 Speaker 1: So that's that's actually a terrific time probably to get 208 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: a newly coached and a new look Miami team, and 209 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 1: Kyle Field's a pretty difficult place to play generally speaking. 210 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 1: I think they could pop up two or three oh yeah, wins. 211 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 3: By the way, that's a perfect segue into Melty's question, 212 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 3: which you've got high made. Next, here's the question, if 213 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 3: you got a pair of tickets to any regular season 214 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 3: game this year, which would you go to and who 215 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 3: would you take? Okay, so the friends matchup and spouses 216 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 3: and children not allowed, So all right, I am approaching 217 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:02,679 Speaker 3: this from the standpoint of low hanging fruit, low hanging 218 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 3: fruit being big neutral site games. Now, I know where 219 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 3: you're aut on neutral site games. I'm with you, but 220 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 3: we've got some really good non conference games early that 221 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 3: are played at neutral sites. The one that I want 222 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 3: to talk to you about, well, the two that I 223 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 3: want to talk to you about are both on Labor 224 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 3: Day weekend. The first is the Chick fil A kickoff 225 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 3: game between your Oregon Ducks and Georgia. I think that's 226 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 3: just going to be a cool matchup. I'd love to 227 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 3: see it. I'm excited about that game. We may go 228 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 3: to that game, I don't know. Secondly, the next day, 229 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 3: I guess it would be on Sunday, September the fourth, 230 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 3: Florida State versus LSU. They played in the Superdome. That 231 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:42,679 Speaker 3: could be a hell of a time. Like if you 232 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,680 Speaker 3: and I are just like going without any kind of 233 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 3: you know, spouses or kids with us, NOL is a 234 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 3: pretty good place to go. So I'm looking at that 235 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:53,840 Speaker 3: one and I'm thinking, all right, LC's got a new 236 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 3: new coach, no expectations, Florida State's going to be loaded 237 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 3: for bear. They bring a fair amount back. I think 238 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 3: they'll be better based on the question we just answered 239 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:06,679 Speaker 3: that could be interesting. I kind of think that might 240 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 3: be my answer. 241 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not going to a neutral side game. You 242 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 1: give me an opportunity to go to Atlanta or New 243 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:17,559 Speaker 1: Orleans and watch it in an NFL stadium. I would 244 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 1: love to go to Georgia, Oregon, and I may go 245 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 1: to Georgia, Oregon. But if you're gonna give me a 246 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 1: choice of any of these games, both from an environment 247 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 1: a location perspective, I just I don't know. We have 248 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 1: what another Clemson Notre Dame, Michigan, Ohio State is in 249 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 1: Columbus this year, saying MBAMA is in Tuscaloosa. Continue, how 250 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 1: about Texas against Alabama? But where's that game? Games in Texas? 251 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 1: Week two? Is it it's in Austin or is it 252 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:53,679 Speaker 1: at Jerry World? No, it's in Austin. That that might 253 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 1: be my answer. I'm looking right now. It's week two, 254 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 1: so it's about September tenth I just looked in Austin. 255 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's September the tenth um. 256 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,959 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean yeah, I would. I think that's probably 257 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 1: my answer. If I get to go to Austin and 258 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 1: I get to watch that matchup, you have the narrative 259 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 1: sark and Saban. We presume Quinn yours in his second game. 260 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 1: I don't know who Texas has week one. The environment 261 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:23,439 Speaker 1: at DKR is not the best, but I think it 262 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,439 Speaker 1: should be pretty electric for Bama. Yeah, and it's a 263 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 1: two thousand and nine national championship rematch. Yeah. I mean 264 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 1: that that may be more for food and friends I 265 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 1: have in Austin than anything else. I've been to a 266 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:38,960 Speaker 1: couple of games already at DKR, so there's no novelty 267 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 1: factor there. I think that's my answer. Sure, great, excellent. 268 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 1: Where are we going? Next question. 269 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 2: Here? 270 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 1: This is in line with that Cheddar, who is obviously 271 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:52,600 Speaker 1: an alpha on the Discord server runfoballers dot com. What 272 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 1: is the matchup that would create the best meal if 273 00:13:55,880 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 1: you combine the unique local cuisines from each school, So 274 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 1: you probably have to either do food and drink or 275 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 1: entree dessert. So if you were coming up with a 276 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 1: matchup so you could use okay for beer, you could 277 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 1: use a number of plays. 278 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,559 Speaker 3: So you know, I'm not gonna be good at this one, right, 279 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 3: I'm just not as well versed in the travel aspect 280 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 3: of college football, So I understand as you the former 281 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 3: SI Tour guide. Yeah, so you're gonna have to answer 282 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 3: this one. I will do my best to tell you 283 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 3: with grunts and with gunneral sounds what sounds good and 284 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 3: what doesn't. But I just don't have the local flavor 285 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 3: like you do. 286 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's really difficult to combine foods that would work 287 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 1: well together. I think there is something I'll go. I mean, 288 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be a selfish homer here, I'll go Oregon 289 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 1: LSU because of both the seafood in both places. So yeah, 290 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 1: good seafood in the Pacific Northwest. Obviously your salmon, you 291 00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: have your special your guy ducks, right, the huge oyster 292 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 1: or type things, and you have the Cajun food, and 293 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 1: you have the beer, and you have the wine. You 294 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 1: have breweries in Oregon, You've got a wine area if 295 00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 1: you're into wine vintner is that what a wine enthusiast 296 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 1: is called. And then all the crazy food of Louisiana, 297 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 1: all the incredible food, your Cajun influence. So that's probably 298 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 1: my answer that would give us both a good football 299 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 1: matchup and a good food matchup. You can go across 300 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 1: the country very easily. You can go you know, Mexican 301 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 1: food with USC or UCLA, just geographically usc is going 302 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 1: to give you better Mexican food in that downtown LA area, 303 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 1: then you're going to get in you know, Westwood. You 304 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 1: compare that with somewhere that does really good beer. 305 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 2: Whatever. 306 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 1: But yeah, that's that's probably my dream. And we got that, 307 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 1: albeit on a neutral site Oregon LSU in like twenty eleven. 308 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 1: There it is. How about that? Sure? 309 00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 3: I'm thinking like a Wisconsin Ohio state matchup this year 310 00:15:56,640 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 3: between the Brats and there are some good breweries in Coloria, Columbus. Yeah, 311 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 3: just craft brewery type places. None that I could probably 312 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 3: name off the top of my head. I think Great Blake, 313 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 3: Great Lakes Brewing excuse me, is in Ohio. 314 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 1: But yeah, yeah, that's a tough question. You get some 315 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: Jenny's ice cream? Yeah, if you if you really want 316 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: to go dairy heavy with you know, Wisconsin, bringing the 317 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 1: brots and cheese cards and finish it off with some 318 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 1: ice cream with Jenny. It's not a sponsor, could be. 319 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 1: That's pretty good. 320 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 3: Is there anything you could mix with Skyline Chili in Cincinnati? 321 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 1: I would prefer not to. That might be last on 322 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 1: my list. Cincinnati has very good food. I'm not into that, 323 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 1: all right, No, there's there's a lot of interesting things 324 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: you could do with that answer. 325 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 2: Just let us know. 326 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 1: Just a tweet at us with Instagram whatever. Next top 327 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 1: next question, Frank wants to know who do you think 328 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 1: will do better over the next few years at their 329 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 1: new locations. Lincoln Riley or Mario Cristo ball Kay Mario Crystabal. 330 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 1: Both are top recruiters, improven winners. They're both moving from 331 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 1: small towns with strong football program to big time beach 332 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 1: cities with a lot to offer five star kids in 333 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 1: addition to football. Both enter week conferences, joining historically great 334 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 1: football brands falling recently. And Dan adds parenthetically the last 335 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 1: fifteen to seventeen years on on hard times. Yeah, who 336 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: is better set up for? And who do you expect 337 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: to if we return to this question in twenty twenty seven, 338 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: twenty twenty eight, somewhere along there, who has more whatever 339 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 1: measure of your success ten win seasons, conference crowns, playoff appearances. 340 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:44,680 Speaker 3: I'm inclined to say Lincoln Riley in usc Okay, I 341 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:49,880 Speaker 3: am focused primarily right now on the recruiting beat. Okay, 342 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 3: these are two areas of the country that have a 343 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:57,879 Speaker 3: fertile crescent of sorts when it comes to Crescent High 344 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:02,920 Speaker 3: School prospects. Yep eh okay, But I feel like USC 345 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 3: now being kind of the splashy program led by the 346 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 3: younger guy, Lincoln Riley, I feel like it's going to be. 347 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 3: It feels like it's going to go a long way 348 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 3: towards keeping some of those kids home. So I think 349 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 3: they've got a built in recruiting advantage there. 350 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: I think Lincoln. 351 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 3: Riley, with it with only because he's bringing his own 352 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,119 Speaker 3: guys over from Oklahoma, is going to be able to 353 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:28,360 Speaker 3: get that thing out of the gate to a hot start, 354 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 3: and I think he's going to be able to use 355 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,160 Speaker 3: that to propel the program forward. As Frank said, both 356 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,719 Speaker 3: sides of this equation are pretty weak from a conference standpoint, 357 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:40,680 Speaker 3: Like you've obviously got Clemson to deal with in the ACC. 358 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:43,680 Speaker 3: You know there are other teams that have gotten better 359 00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:45,679 Speaker 3: in the ACC as well, so maybe a little bit 360 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 3: more resistance there. But I feel pretty good. 361 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:52,679 Speaker 1: About Lincoln Riley out west. I think my answer is 362 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 1: Mario Christobal h and I think Miami is more serious 363 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: about poor resources into the program when you look at 364 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 1: how much money they spent on their staff, when you 365 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 1: look at what Mario Christobal was able to do in 366 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:13,399 Speaker 1: bringing up Oregon's resources and commitment to football and building 367 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 1: out that program. What Lincoln Riley has done in terms 368 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 1: of staff hires, it doesn't leave me all that excited. 369 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 1: Are we comparing staves here? Staves? Well, no, we are 370 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 1: comparing paths, and we're comparing I mean, look, it's the 371 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 1: division and conference in which these teams play. It's the 372 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 1: ability to find and develop a quarterback into a huge 373 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 1: success and the ability to build up consistent talent and 374 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 1: depth on the roster. I have no doubt that Lincoln 375 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 1: Riley is going to continuously find quarterbacks. I have no 376 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:53,920 Speaker 1: doubt that Lincoln Riley is going to elevate USC's regional 377 00:19:53,960 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 1: and national recruiting. My question is can the region perduce 378 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:05,679 Speaker 1: enough lineman depth for USC to provide confidence in me 379 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,280 Speaker 1: saying yeah, they'll win ten plus games every year when 380 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 1: USC is just hasn't been that place. Miami hasn't either, 381 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 1: but their pathway within that division is pretty clear depending 382 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,880 Speaker 1: on what you believe in. In terms of North Carolina 383 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 1: right now and Brent Prye and Virginia Tech, I just 384 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 1: the ceiling just seems so much higher for Miami. But again, 385 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: this is in Miami team. How many acc crowns are 386 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:33,680 Speaker 1: we talking about? I believe that be zero zero? Yeah, 387 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 1: so you are taking a chance with you taking more 388 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 1: of a risk with with Miami. Mark Chris Ball has 389 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 1: taken precisely zero teams to the college football Playoff? 390 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 3: Right? Is that is factually correct in And yeah, Also 391 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 3: I'd add as a counterpoint, we've heard this song and 392 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 3: dance on the Miami front before. 393 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 1: Of course we joked about it. When they hire. 394 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 3: Cchriyst of Ball, it seems like a race to get 395 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:01,679 Speaker 3: the most Miami guy possible to coach the program. So 396 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 3: having him there, Look, I do believe he's a cut 397 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 3: above what they've had before. He's a known recruiter, he's 398 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 3: a good coach, he's a good coach. I think he 399 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 3: will get them going in the right direction. I truly 400 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 3: honestly believe that. But in terms of who can get 401 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:18,879 Speaker 3: a program up and running quicker, I think the answer 402 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:20,919 Speaker 3: there is Lincoln Riley. And I think if you do it, 403 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:22,720 Speaker 3: I think if you bring Caleb Williams over, if he 404 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 3: continues to have the success that we believe he'll have, 405 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 3: or that's just going to feedback into the award of 406 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 3: the program that that's going to jumpstart that recruiting operation 407 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 3: and take it to a level that it hasn't been 408 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:33,920 Speaker 3: at in quite some time. 409 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 1: And he should have two years of Caleb Williams, whereas 410 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 1: Tyler van Dyck might only be in Miami for another 411 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 1: one year. So I am banking on the ACC providing 412 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 1: for less resistance than the PAC twelve at this point, 413 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: just because Utah exists, just because the talent ceiling of 414 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 1: Oregon is pretty impressive. Otherwise, I don't know, there's not 415 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: much in the PAC twelve. And Sam could be said, 416 00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:59,719 Speaker 1: you know, Clemson's not necessarily heading in the right direction. 417 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,360 Speaker 1: I think just Miami right now, I think they can 418 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 1: build a deeper defense, And to me, that is just 419 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 1: I think what they what Miami's roster can look like, 420 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 1: is more impressive than what USC's roster can look like. 421 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 1: Fair Enough, I'm fair enough one with Mario and Miami 422 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: in the next five years or so. Next question. Ten 423 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 1: years ago, I could never have imagined we'd be in 424 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 1: the era of the portal and of players picking schools 425 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:30,880 Speaker 1: based on nil deals. Yeah, what do you think will 426 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 1: be the biggest factors shaping the game in twenty thirty two, Ty, 427 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 1: how old will you be in twenty thirty two? 428 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:36,879 Speaker 2: Nd about that? 429 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 1: Don't want to talk about that that no one is 430 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 1: talking about now, as Ty would be then a dude 431 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 1: having entered his sixth decade of life. That's correct, That 432 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: is actually correct. Well, I mean, thank you. 433 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 3: Anytime you get a question like this, the answer is 434 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 3: always in forever lasers, right, of. 435 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:58,120 Speaker 1: Course, obviously obviously drones, lasers, laser, drones, drone lasers. 436 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 3: Yep, I think the answer is lasers. Dan who asked 437 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 3: the question, Dan, A couple things come to mind, but 438 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 3: kind of on that same note, technology is definitely shaping. 439 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:11,640 Speaker 1: The way we view all sports. 440 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 3: I would expect ten years from now that VR is 441 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,360 Speaker 3: going to be a big deal, a much bigger deal 442 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 3: than it is. 443 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:18,119 Speaker 1: Think so. 444 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:22,440 Speaker 3: I think so so in terms of how it shapes 445 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:27,119 Speaker 3: the game, maybe not on field, but the fan experience. 446 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 3: I could see going in a direction where VR is 447 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 3: a thing and how we experience the game at home 448 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 3: is very much driven by optics, literal optics that we 449 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:39,800 Speaker 3: put on our head. I think that could be a thing. 450 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 3: I'm going to hold out hope that in ten years 451 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,480 Speaker 3: we can put a chip in a ball and we 452 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 3: don't have to leave it to Dean Blandino or guys 453 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 3: somewhere in a truck with eight K televisions to figure 454 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,400 Speaker 3: out did the ball cross the line or not. We've 455 00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,400 Speaker 3: got to be able to put the chip in the ball, Dan, 456 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 3: got to be able to do that. Somebody can do 457 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:06,720 Speaker 3: that now. I gotta believe that's going to be one 458 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:09,119 Speaker 3: of the next revolutions that comes over the next ten years. 459 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 1: We could have robot umpires for baseball, and yet we don't. 460 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 1: They shot that down, right, I know, I saw that. 461 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 1: That's a bummer. 462 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 3: They shot that down. Robots is another answer in line 463 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:22,119 Speaker 3: with the lasers. Yeah, will we see any robotics, Dan. 464 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:27,439 Speaker 1: I think the organization of the sport is going to 465 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:29,399 Speaker 1: look a whole lot different. I think things are going 466 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 1: to continue to consolidate. College football has shown itself and 467 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 1: a number all major sports have shown themselves to be 468 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:41,239 Speaker 1: entities that don't move backwards. And so if we are 469 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:43,920 Speaker 1: talking about a sport in which conferences are getting bigger 470 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 1: and are focusing on television money, then things are going 471 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 1: to further consolidate. The idea of college football. For better 472 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 1: or worse. I say, for worse has been to chase 473 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,159 Speaker 1: the NFL model, So I think we're going to end 474 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 1: up with fewer conferences. I think we're going to end 475 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 1: up with a much more consolidated sport chasing more and 476 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,440 Speaker 1: more TV money. The Playoff will continue to expand. I 477 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 1: don't know the exact year. I don't know if it's 478 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:06,800 Speaker 1: by twenty thirty two, whatever, we know it's going to 479 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 1: expand at least to six, eight, ten, twelve games before then. 480 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 1: But I think there will be there will be a 481 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 1: reckoning at a certain point where a bubble will burst 482 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 1: and there will have to be a conversation around Okay, 483 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 1: college football is now a national sport, do we have 484 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 1: a national governing body? That to me is going to 485 00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:31,200 Speaker 1: be the biggest change. I think by twenty thirty two 486 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 1: there will be a national governing body in place, not 487 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 1: necessarily in the way that the College Football Playoff governing 488 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 1: body exists, because it's not really a governing body, just 489 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:44,679 Speaker 1: an organizational grouping. I think there is going to be 490 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 1: a fundamental shift between the haves and have nots, and 491 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:52,360 Speaker 1: there will be a governing body that is saying, okay, 492 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 1: these are the rules be it about nil, be it 493 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 1: about any sort of payment, be it about actual rules, 494 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:03,440 Speaker 1: beat about scholarships, be about scheduling. I think there will 495 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 1: be a major shift in how the sport is organized 496 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:12,639 Speaker 1: and governed, and that there will be a group. I 497 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 1: don't know if there's a commissioner. I don't know if 498 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,360 Speaker 1: there's a board. I don't know if there's some sort 499 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 1: of consortium of conference commissioners that come together and make 500 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 1: these make the rules for the sport. But I think 501 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 1: we are heading in that direction where college football sees 502 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,480 Speaker 1: the amount of money on the table and says, if 503 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 1: we can get our act together and turn this into 504 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 1: more of a machine, turn this into a full organization, 505 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 1: then we can do better financially and we can spread 506 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 1: the resources around more effectively. So that's my answer. 507 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean the money aspect here I think has 508 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,440 Speaker 3: potential to change a lot. Now, at time of recording, 509 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 3: it is March, it is twenty twenty two. Reportedly EA 510 00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:01,159 Speaker 3: Sports is dropping the new college football game in twenty three. Now. 511 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 3: I haven't seen that confirmed, but that's the report that 512 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 3: I think could actually drive change in a pretty big way, 513 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:13,440 Speaker 3: and especially with respect to things like nil, and especially 514 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:17,239 Speaker 3: with respect to representation for the players and where that 515 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:21,440 Speaker 3: whole movement goes next, Because suddenly we're talking about a 516 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 3: pretty big source of income for everybody, sort of a 517 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:29,720 Speaker 3: calm denominator, if you will, How that is handled, how 518 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 3: that affects things on the NIL front moving forward, It's 519 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 3: gonna be really interesting to see. But could it drive 520 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,679 Speaker 3: us to the place could it drive the sport to 521 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 3: a place where we're talking about things like commissioners, where 522 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 3: we're talking about things like collective bargaining. 523 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 1: I don't know. 524 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:45,439 Speaker 3: I might be getting a little bit over over my 525 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 3: skis here, but that I think could be a pretty 526 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,719 Speaker 3: big moment for us as we examine this question over 527 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:51,439 Speaker 3: the next decade. 528 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:54,199 Speaker 1: I also don't think and I think this is and 529 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 1: just from talking to people, I don't think prospects maybe 530 00:27:58,359 --> 00:27:59,959 Speaker 1: the top of the top of the top, with all 531 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: things being equal, make a decision that heavily weighs ANIL stuff. 532 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 1: But I still think the schools that have the most 533 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 1: money are already the schools are generally really good who 534 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:17,200 Speaker 1: have those huge donor bases. Look, Texas hasn't been good 535 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 1: in quite some time, and they have that donor base, 536 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 1: and they could organize and they could, you know, put 537 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 1: together these collectives that pay top recruits whatever X amount 538 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 1: of dollars. But also, you still have to want to 539 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 1: play for Texas. You still have to want to play 540 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 1: for Tennessee or Florida State or USC or any of 541 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:37,640 Speaker 1: these places that are sort of trying to use NIL 542 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 1: in a big way. And so I still don't think 543 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 1: somebody is going to exclusively go to a place because 544 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 1: of short term earning. I still think that we are 545 00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 1: we are selling kids and their intellect and decision making 546 00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 1: abilities a little bit short when we assume that that's 547 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 1: one hundred percent of the process. So I think I 548 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 1: think specifically NIL is going to get a lot more organized. 549 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 1: And we talked about this with Matt Brown. You can 550 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:05,719 Speaker 1: go back and listen to that podcast from a few 551 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,800 Speaker 1: weeks ago. He was excellent in that this is still 552 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 1: the infancy of the name image likeness era, and so 553 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:18,160 Speaker 1: markets will correct themselves, will better organize themselves. And you know, 554 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 1: far be it for me to just assume major sports 555 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:23,680 Speaker 1: knows what it's doing, because you look across a major 556 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: sport knows what it's doing. You look across the Olympics, 557 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 1: you look across baseball, and the NFL like there's no 558 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 1: rhyme or reason to anything. I think there is going 559 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:35,960 Speaker 1: to be a reckoning with gambling. That's interesting one. 560 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, we got a question about that. Of course, it's 561 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 3: in the news right now. My hunch has got a 562 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:43,080 Speaker 3: lot of folks listening have seeing the Calvin Ridley news 563 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 3: and where things stand with him being in the NFL 564 00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:50,120 Speaker 3: and gambling and that whole disaster that we're going to 565 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 3: see play out in real time. But gambling money is 566 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 3: a thing. 567 00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:53,720 Speaker 1: Man. 568 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:59,160 Speaker 3: Will colleges more openly embrace it, will conferences, will the 569 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 3: playoff more open embrace it? 570 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:02,400 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know. 571 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:06,240 Speaker 3: If the Gamba companies had their drugs, they would it 572 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:09,440 Speaker 3: would be a tighter relationship. You might have logos on uniforms. 573 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 3: I don't think we'll get there, but it definitely has 574 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 3: the potential to, I think, affect things in a pretty 575 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:16,480 Speaker 3: big way. 576 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:21,360 Speaker 1: Here's the certainty, and this is, you know, a couple 577 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 1: of days, three or four days after the Calvin Ridley 578 00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:25,719 Speaker 1: being suspended for a year for betting, what you say, 579 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 1: fifteen hundred bucks on parlays NFL parlays including the Falcons 580 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 1: to win. So he wasn't betting against his own team, 581 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 1: which I guess is something. But the certainty, the one 582 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 1: hundred percent is going to be a wife, a nephew, 583 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 1: a son, a brother, a parent of somebody within a 584 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:47,800 Speaker 1: program having inside information putting ten thousand dollars on a 585 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 1: game and it being traced back that and I'm fully 586 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:56,600 Speaker 1: making this up that PJ. Flex nephew puts eighty five 587 00:30:56,720 --> 00:31:00,080 Speaker 1: hundred dollars down on the Gophers because they surprise and 588 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 1: got back a quarterback who had been injured. And nobody 589 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 1: knows this or that get has intel that a key player, 590 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:10,680 Speaker 1: usually a quarterback, sometimes a running back is out with 591 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 1: a surprise injury. Is you know, he was hungover and 592 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 1: snapped his ankle trying to jump over a fire hydrant 593 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 1: or something the night before a game. And there's going 594 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 1: to be suspicious money pushed around a game that will 595 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 1: be traced back to a big name coach. That to 596 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 1: me with how easy it is to gamble, and Calvin 597 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 1: Ridley did this on his phone, correct, yep. That is 598 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 1: it's going to be too enticing for somebody with inside 599 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 1: information and it's going to be connected to a coach 600 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 1: or a strength coach or whoever, or a you know, 601 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:46,880 Speaker 1: a girlfriend or whatever of a player. We'll be like, ooh, 602 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 1: this is a little bit fishy and too suspicious, and 603 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 1: it's going to be further investigated, and there might be 604 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:55,719 Speaker 1: repercussions involved somehow, That to me, by twenty thirty two, 605 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:58,560 Speaker 1: one hundred percent will happen maybe by the end of 606 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:05,480 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two. Next question, Next question, nor Norden Cam. 607 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 1: I don't know if Nordon Cam sure from Instagram? How 608 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 1: can Tennessee prepare its defense for the workload of always 609 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 1: being on the field. I assume that's sort of for better, 610 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:23,040 Speaker 1: for worse and Hendon Hooker's coming back. Tennessee's offensive footprint 611 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 1: per bell c they had the number one pace in 612 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:30,960 Speaker 1: college football last season, so for better worse meaning they'll 613 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 1: go three and out quickly, or they'll bomb it down 614 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 1: the field and score quickly. And I don't anticipate that 615 00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:39,720 Speaker 1: style changing anytime soon. How do you account for that, coach, Tie? 616 00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:45,160 Speaker 3: If I'm not a coach, I'm a podcaster. Yeah, we're 617 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 3: talking about true class on grass here. With that Tennessee 618 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 3: offense number one pace first off, one way that you 619 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,200 Speaker 3: can help account for it is by making your offense 620 00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:58,760 Speaker 3: as efficient as possible. If you're going to be on 621 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 3: the field for a very short period of time, make 622 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 3: sure you get the most bang for the buck. So 623 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 3: any way that you can make the offense better. If 624 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 3: that's what you're saying, score points, score points, right, I'm 625 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:10,480 Speaker 3: saying quite literally, score points. If you're going to be 626 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:14,360 Speaker 3: running NASCAR offense. That that's the first thing. The second thing, 627 00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:16,960 Speaker 3: I guess comes down to the type of players that 628 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 3: you're recruiting, the types of guys that you're putting out there. 629 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:22,800 Speaker 3: All you gotta do is watch the NFL combine to 630 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 3: realize that athletes are a little bit different now than 631 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 3: they were ten years ago. There are so many more 632 00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 3: guys that are out there now that kind of fit 633 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:33,400 Speaker 3: that hybrid mold than what we'd see a decade ago. 634 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 3: If you're tennessee any guys like that, any guys that 635 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 3: can be versatile, that can play a bunch of different positions, 636 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 3: that you know have stamina. You can't really afford to 637 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 3: go out there with three hundred and fifty pound defensive lineman. 638 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:47,200 Speaker 1: Those guys are going to be guessed. 639 00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 3: So you need to be able to build a defense 640 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 3: that I think has much more of a hybrid look 641 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,320 Speaker 3: and feel to it, so that you can get your 642 00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 3: guys in space and they're not going to die when 643 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 3: they're on the field. 644 00:33:56,360 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 1: The entire game one slow down a little bit, fully, 645 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:04,600 Speaker 1: not fully, have different speeds. There was an old Chip 646 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:06,720 Speaker 1: Kelly story that you know, as fast as Oregon was 647 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:09,920 Speaker 1: playing when they really started playing with that kind of tempo, 648 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:12,360 Speaker 1: they had red, yellow and green. They had green for 649 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:13,920 Speaker 1: when it was go go, go, go go. They had 650 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:15,759 Speaker 1: yellow when it was like hurry up and then get 651 00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 1: to the line and look over so the other team 652 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:21,440 Speaker 1: still can't substitute. And then a much slower like milking 653 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:27,160 Speaker 1: the clock type pace. So Tennessee with what little Josh 654 00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:30,239 Speaker 1: hipel inherited said, Okay, one of our advantages if we 655 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,560 Speaker 1: don't have a great offensive line is going to be 656 00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:34,840 Speaker 1: the speed at which we play, because that will gas 657 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:36,880 Speaker 1: teams and that will mitigate any issues we have along 658 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,080 Speaker 1: the offensive line. And they developed running backs. You know, 659 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:41,600 Speaker 1: they were able to play and win in different ways. 660 00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:43,239 Speaker 1: Tyon Evans came on in the middle of the year, 661 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:45,880 Speaker 1: of course, and they were bombing it downfield and it 662 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:48,399 Speaker 1: worked really, really well. Once Hendon Hooker took over as 663 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,759 Speaker 1: the full time starting quarterback. Here's what you can do. 664 00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:56,239 Speaker 1: You can the most difficult and most obvious answer is 665 00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:59,840 Speaker 1: recruit a super talented and deep defense. You just rotate 666 00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:02,839 Speaker 1: in and out, keep them fresh, and then you can 667 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,799 Speaker 1: get off the field quicker because you're constantly rotating in 668 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:08,959 Speaker 1: fresh legs. That's what Georgia was able to do last year. 669 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:12,360 Speaker 1: Pretty hard to replicate, pretty hard to replicate. And Georgia 670 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:14,120 Speaker 1: didn't have an offense that played with the pace that 671 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 1: Tennessee's played with, right, but they were constantly bringing guys 672 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 1: in and out of the game. This was when you 673 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:22,080 Speaker 1: recruit the way that Georgia did in a few years 674 00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 1: leading up to twenty twenty one. You can do that. 675 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:27,120 Speaker 1: Another way is you just got to get off the field. 676 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:28,480 Speaker 1: And how do you get off the field, or you 677 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:31,400 Speaker 1: get off the field with turnovers. There's a randomness to that. 678 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:33,959 Speaker 1: But you can teach a defense to give it self 679 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 1: the best chance at generating turnovers, and you know preaching strips, preaching, 680 00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 1: you know, hands in passing lanes to get the ball 681 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:43,759 Speaker 1: into the air. You can look at the teams and 682 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 1: the coordinators and assistants who have been a part of defense, 683 00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 1: a defense that have been especially good at getting off 684 00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:54,440 Speaker 1: the field on third down, especially good at fielding defenses 685 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:56,799 Speaker 1: that have high three and out percentages, and that those 686 00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,880 Speaker 1: all those numbers are readily available. And you look at 687 00:35:59,880 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 1: the teams who are able to even without a ton 688 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,239 Speaker 1: of talent, maybe you look at the FCS level, maybe 689 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,520 Speaker 1: you look at you know, G five level, whatever, the 690 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:12,920 Speaker 1: teams who are able to force the an uncharacteristically low 691 00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:17,719 Speaker 1: completion percentage from quarterbacks right that they're able to generate confusion, 692 00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:19,960 Speaker 1: that they're able to sew, you know, to get that 693 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:23,560 Speaker 1: extra second or two seconds that that makes a quarterback hesitate. 694 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:27,239 Speaker 1: Find those guys. And so if you are fully dedicated 695 00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:29,920 Speaker 1: to playing with that kind of pace, you need to 696 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:35,080 Speaker 1: be dedicated to robust rotation and finding a coach who 697 00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:39,319 Speaker 1: is especially adept at confusion. That to me is how 698 00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:39,759 Speaker 1: you do it. 699 00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:41,040 Speaker 2: Do we think hypel can do that? 700 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:48,840 Speaker 1: Yes? Yeah, I think if Tennessee has its affairs in 701 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:52,359 Speaker 1: order more so than usual, that they are not going 702 00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:56,439 Speaker 1: to be outbid for assistant coaches, then assistant may choose 703 00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:58,480 Speaker 1: to go elsewhere who has options. But I don't think 704 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:00,799 Speaker 1: it's going to be a money thing. I think the 705 00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:02,680 Speaker 1: more that they win, the more interest they're going to 706 00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:06,239 Speaker 1: generate from regional talent. We've seen that they're not going 707 00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:09,640 Speaker 1: to be outbid from an nil perspective, as the collective 708 00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,720 Speaker 1: has allegedly come together to pool together money to compete 709 00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:16,239 Speaker 1: on the recruiting trail. So I think Josh Hipel is 710 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:19,239 Speaker 1: all in on running both a modern offense and a 711 00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:22,279 Speaker 1: modern program. So I don't know if that results in 712 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:25,080 Speaker 1: ten to eleven wins seasons more often than not, but 713 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:28,240 Speaker 1: I think Tennessee is trying to give itself every chance 714 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:31,359 Speaker 1: in the world to do that. We'll see what they 715 00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:33,359 Speaker 1: end up at a quarterback. That's going to be huge 716 00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 1: because they're competing with some of the best nationally. But 717 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:39,040 Speaker 1: I think it's going to be an especially attractive offensive 718 00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:41,680 Speaker 1: style that will attract top quarterbacks in the years to come. 719 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 1: But yeah, the defense thing is going to remain a question. 720 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:48,480 Speaker 1: You need to stay out in front and be innovative 721 00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:51,879 Speaker 1: and really look at the guys who consistently get their 722 00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:53,240 Speaker 1: own defenses off the field. 723 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:56,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, and to that point, Dan, if you're talking about 724 00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:58,920 Speaker 3: things like turnovers, we're talking about havoc rate, right, We're 725 00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:01,120 Speaker 3: talking about creating place is when the defense is on 726 00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:03,680 Speaker 3: the field to try and maybe tilt the scales in 727 00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:07,239 Speaker 3: your favor. One of the factors that I think you know, 728 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:09,360 Speaker 3: we had talked about at some point or another. Tennessee's 729 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:12,000 Speaker 3: defense was pretty good this year, but Tennessee as a 730 00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:13,080 Speaker 3: blitzing team was. 731 00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 1: Not necessarily where it needed to be. 732 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:16,920 Speaker 3: So, right, if you're talking about this equation where your 733 00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:19,360 Speaker 3: defense is always on the field, your offense is only 734 00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 3: on the field for a small percentage of the time, 735 00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:23,840 Speaker 3: you got to get the most out of those blitzes. 736 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:27,120 Speaker 3: That's one area for improvement for Tennessee in twenty two 737 00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:27,560 Speaker 3: and beyond. 738 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:31,600 Speaker 1: The good thing about Tennessee in year one was that 739 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:35,360 Speaker 1: their special teams was also pretty good. Yeah, And so 740 00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:37,960 Speaker 1: when you talk about the hidden yards and what you 741 00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:41,880 Speaker 1: force teams into, if you are forcing bad field position 742 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:46,680 Speaker 1: a lot because of touchbacks from kickoffs and deep punts 743 00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:50,879 Speaker 1: and sound you know coverage, and you know guys staying 744 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:54,440 Speaker 1: in their lanes and making tackles where they should, you're 745 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:56,400 Speaker 1: giving yourself every chance in the world to get off 746 00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,520 Speaker 1: the field. If you're pinning teams pretty consistently, and also 747 00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:02,360 Speaker 1: if you're making special teams that result in short fields 748 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:04,560 Speaker 1: for your offense. If you're blocking kicks, so whatever, if 749 00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 1: you're doing what it takes. In special teams, you also 750 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:10,040 Speaker 1: change the calculus a little bit, because all of a sudden, 751 00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:12,520 Speaker 1: you're up fourteen to three, and a team who's not 752 00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 1: used to playing from behind and doesn't necessarily have an 753 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:17,600 Speaker 1: offense built to play from behind suddenly chucking the ball 754 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:19,879 Speaker 1: a lot and a lot more than usual, and that's 755 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 1: stopping the clock, and that's getting their own offense off 756 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,360 Speaker 1: the field. So I think there are a lot of 757 00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:27,400 Speaker 1: things you can do on the margins, and honestly, I 758 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 1: think Tennessee will give itself every chance to do so. 759 00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:32,280 Speaker 1: They are one of the few programs that, even without 760 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:36,000 Speaker 1: a lot of recent success, will attempt to spend their 761 00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:39,920 Speaker 1: way to success, which is I think it's better than 762 00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 1: not so here here. I think there you have our answer. 763 00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:45,920 Speaker 2: Mean Joe. 764 00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:49,440 Speaker 1: A oh, that's a different mean Joe than I was expecting. 765 00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:56,160 Speaker 1: Different Mean Joe is West Virginia in trouble number one 766 00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:58,759 Speaker 1: for transfers in the portal. I can't confirm that. I 767 00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 1: did go to their transfer page on twenty four to seven, 768 00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:06,600 Speaker 1: and there's a lot of WVU and then an arrow 769 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:12,120 Speaker 1: pointing elsewhere and not as much pointing towards WVU from elsewhere. 770 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:18,439 Speaker 1: Is West Virginia in your mind in trouble under Neil Brown? 771 00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:23,040 Speaker 3: Well, if we harken back to the returning production thing 772 00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:27,800 Speaker 3: that I mentioned before, yea, West Virginia is, Yeah, they're 773 00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:30,799 Speaker 3: looking for people. They're looking for people who could come 774 00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:33,560 Speaker 3: in and run things. It's going to be a lot 775 00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:38,799 Speaker 3: of new faces, especially on offense for West Virginia. I 776 00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:42,040 Speaker 3: kind of don't know directionally which way this program's going, 777 00:40:42,600 --> 00:40:46,760 Speaker 3: and I've struggled with that over the last two seasons, 778 00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:50,879 Speaker 3: especially last season. Twenty twenty was moan, but twenty twenty one, 779 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:52,200 Speaker 3: you know. 780 00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:53,640 Speaker 1: Was sort of all over the place. 781 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 3: Still have a little bit of PTSD from that bowl game. 782 00:40:57,400 --> 00:40:59,919 Speaker 3: The bowl game against Minnesota, what was at eighteen to six? 783 00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:03,799 Speaker 3: Eighteen to six, Yep, it's a really bad offensive showing there. 784 00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:06,479 Speaker 3: The reason that I struggle with West Virginia is because 785 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 3: there are moments where you see that level of effort 786 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:12,879 Speaker 3: that you expect. Right there was a one score get 787 00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:15,680 Speaker 3: one score loss, what they lose by three points on. 788 00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:16,640 Speaker 1: The road to Oklahoma. 789 00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:17,840 Speaker 2: Oklahoma was sort. 790 00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:21,000 Speaker 3: Of in disarray early, but still you know you're looking 791 00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:23,440 Speaker 3: at that game thinking well, geez, they lost sixteen thirteen. 792 00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:26,920 Speaker 3: It must be doing something right, especially on defense. There 793 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:30,360 Speaker 3: were other games they beat Iowa State, They beat Iowa 794 00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:32,120 Speaker 3: followed that up with what what do they follow up 795 00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:35,120 Speaker 3: the Iowa State win with like scoring three against Oklahoma State? 796 00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:38,479 Speaker 3: They lost by twenty one Oklahoma State at home. Yeah, 797 00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:40,960 Speaker 3: so it's just sort of been all over the mat. 798 00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:44,360 Speaker 3: I beat Texas, right, Texas wasn't any great win, but 799 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:50,240 Speaker 3: like they're just there's not enough consistency there in terms 800 00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:52,160 Speaker 3: of when they're getting their wins or when they're not 801 00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:53,960 Speaker 3: getting their wins, and that scares me a little bit. 802 00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:56,400 Speaker 3: I don't know if that I don't know if we've 803 00:41:56,520 --> 00:42:02,359 Speaker 3: seen that consistency on the uptick in the time that 804 00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:05,919 Speaker 3: Neil Brown's been in Morgantown. Right, And as you're trying 805 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:08,200 Speaker 3: to build something and directionally just get it going in 806 00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:11,240 Speaker 3: a good way, like you would hope that you start 807 00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:13,680 Speaker 3: to see something that's just a little bit more reliable 808 00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:17,200 Speaker 3: across the board. And that's what frightens me. That we 809 00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:18,080 Speaker 3: can go into numbers. 810 00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:18,800 Speaker 1: We've got all the numbers. 811 00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:20,399 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sure you've got the same stuff in front 812 00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:21,560 Speaker 3: of you that I have in front of me. But 813 00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:24,920 Speaker 3: the consistency aspect of this is what really frightens me. 814 00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 1: So West Virginia is in a really difficult place. So, okay, 815 00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 1: West Virginia plays in a conference that it is not 816 00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:40,040 Speaker 1: in a largely geographic footprint of. So you go to 817 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:42,400 Speaker 1: teams on the you go to you know, high schools 818 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:44,200 Speaker 1: on the east coast in the southeast, and you say, 819 00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:47,680 Speaker 1: come come play at West Virginia. We'll see you in Lubbock, 820 00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:50,799 Speaker 1: We'll see you in Waco, and it's just it's very 821 00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:56,400 Speaker 1: difficult for to convince players to come to Morgantown to 822 00:42:56,480 --> 00:43:02,120 Speaker 1: play far away, specifically in a specially when what the 823 00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:05,680 Speaker 1: hell is West Virginia football under Neil Brown under Dana Holgerson. 824 00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:09,200 Speaker 1: You're like super creative, fast, fun offense. To play in it, 825 00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:11,680 Speaker 1: to be a quarterback, in, to be a receiver, in 826 00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:14,440 Speaker 1: to be a running back in there is a brand, 827 00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:16,600 Speaker 1: There is an identity to West Virginia football that was 828 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:20,759 Speaker 1: extremely positive and extremely enticing from my vantage point, if 829 00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:25,359 Speaker 1: you are a perhaps undersized receiver from Florida, like they 830 00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:27,480 Speaker 1: were able to get so much out of or North 831 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:31,359 Speaker 1: Carolina or South Carolina wherever somewhere in that that footprint Pennsylvania. 832 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:36,000 Speaker 1: Excuse me, under Neil Brown. It's sort of and this 833 00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:39,040 Speaker 1: is to borrow an NBA term, it's kind of a 834 00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:43,440 Speaker 1: program on the treadmill of mediocrity. If you are in 835 00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:45,719 Speaker 1: the portal looking for playing time, looking to contribute to 836 00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:48,800 Speaker 1: a major program. West Virginia was just kind of average 837 00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:52,399 Speaker 1: last year. So you can't go to West Virginia and say, man, 838 00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:53,880 Speaker 1: they need a lot of help on defense. I'm going 839 00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 1: to immediately come in and play and show out in 840 00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:59,080 Speaker 1: a major conference, in the Big twelve. If you're an 841 00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:01,960 Speaker 1: offensive player, if you receiver, of which I think they've 842 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:04,399 Speaker 1: lost four or five in the portal specifically this year, 843 00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:07,240 Speaker 1: what was your experience these last couple of years playing receiver. 844 00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:10,920 Speaker 1: You're catching five yard passes from Jarrett Dagy who's now 845 00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:14,680 Speaker 1: at Western Kentucky. So they don't hit the portal hard 846 00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:17,520 Speaker 1: for a quarterback. They hired Graham Harrell to hopefully improve 847 00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 1: the branding of that offense, but it's not like what 848 00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:22,800 Speaker 1: was he able to do at USC with top tier talent, 849 00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:26,239 Speaker 1: not a ton Those were disappointing offenses with a ton 850 00:44:26,239 --> 00:44:29,799 Speaker 1: of NFL receivers. They you know, they part ways with 851 00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:32,799 Speaker 1: Vic Canning in twenty twenty, and so you know there 852 00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:34,399 Speaker 1: are guys that are recruited by him are thinking they're 853 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:36,840 Speaker 1: going to play in that specific defense, and so that changes. 854 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,879 Speaker 1: And so you're just sort of in no man's land 855 00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:44,359 Speaker 1: right now at West Virginia because what are you going 856 00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:48,840 Speaker 1: there to do? Definitively, I can't answer that question. 857 00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:51,399 Speaker 3: Like it's the identity, right, The identity is what you're 858 00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:53,440 Speaker 3: getting at. It's a good question, and it sort of 859 00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:57,920 Speaker 3: is pervasive across the board. Right is your identity in 860 00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:02,680 Speaker 3: terms of like a geego graphic college football thing? 861 00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 1: Right? 862 00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:07,080 Speaker 3: Well, you're removed at least right now at present from 863 00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:11,279 Speaker 3: the center of gravity of your conference. They're like half 864 00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:12,960 Speaker 3: a world away, half a country way. 865 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:13,720 Speaker 1: Yep. 866 00:45:14,080 --> 00:45:17,440 Speaker 3: What is your identity on offense? On defense? My point 867 00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:21,560 Speaker 3: was going to be especially around the quarterback position, right it. 868 00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:25,759 Speaker 3: Jared Dagi threw nineteen touchdowns this year to twelve interceptions. 869 00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:31,279 Speaker 3: If inconsistency is my overarching theme here, yeah, that's a 870 00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:32,360 Speaker 3: pretty good place to look. 871 00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:34,440 Speaker 1: Sure. I like Jared Deggy, He's all right. 872 00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:38,200 Speaker 3: He completed sixty five percent of his passes, but inconsistency 873 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:41,520 Speaker 3: was pretty much there across the board. Doing the little 874 00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:44,960 Speaker 3: things well has definitely not been a hallmark of Neil 875 00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:48,839 Speaker 3: Brown's time in Morgantown. And that type of stuff adds 876 00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:49,520 Speaker 3: up over time. 877 00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:54,279 Speaker 1: It just does. Yeah, And I think transfers, and this 878 00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:58,240 Speaker 1: is clearly stating the obvious. Transfers on that huge level, 879 00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:02,759 Speaker 1: at such a big number indicate people don't want to 880 00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:06,280 Speaker 1: be there and for whatever reason, be it the losing, 881 00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:09,960 Speaker 1: be it the uninspired identity, be it the culture within 882 00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:12,239 Speaker 1: the program, be it the location of the program, be 883 00:46:12,280 --> 00:46:15,880 Speaker 1: it the conference of the program. It's not a big 884 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:20,000 Speaker 1: long term indicator of a turnaround, of a quick turnaround. 885 00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:22,680 Speaker 1: And so if you were a defensive player, if you're 886 00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:25,200 Speaker 1: van Darius Cowen who's heading to I think Maryland right 887 00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:28,600 Speaker 1: he was? Was he Obama player before West Virginia. This 888 00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:32,560 Speaker 1: is second transfer. You can look that up. You're holding 889 00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:35,640 Speaker 1: teams to sixteen points in losing. You're holding teams to 890 00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:38,520 Speaker 1: eighteen points in a bowl game and losing by scoring. 891 00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:39,960 Speaker 1: I don't think they score a touchdown. I think that 892 00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:42,799 Speaker 1: six was two field goals. You can fact check me 893 00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:45,080 Speaker 1: on that as well. It's just like at a certain 894 00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:49,040 Speaker 1: point you're going to say we're holding up our end 895 00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:51,640 Speaker 1: of the bargain and the offense is has not and 896 00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:55,480 Speaker 1: is not getting better. So that to me is the issue. 897 00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,520 Speaker 1: Yeah with West Virginia is there's not a lot you 898 00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:01,480 Speaker 1: can point to in the during the Neil Brown era 899 00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:05,640 Speaker 1: where you're like, this is what this program is and 900 00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:09,200 Speaker 1: that's what excites me. Yeah, and right now it's it's 901 00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:12,560 Speaker 1: it's an attention economy. And god, I sound like a 902 00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:14,480 Speaker 1: dumb tech bro when I say really, but it is 903 00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:17,160 Speaker 1: and Virginia doing to garner attention. 904 00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:21,719 Speaker 3: Neil Brown's forty one years old, definitely one of the 905 00:47:21,760 --> 00:47:26,200 Speaker 3: younger coaches out there. He's going to go into year 906 00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:30,560 Speaker 3: four with a mark of seventeen and eighteen in Morgantown. 907 00:47:31,239 --> 00:47:33,400 Speaker 3: That is in start contrast to what he did at Troy, 908 00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:35,799 Speaker 3: where the first year was bad and then he won 909 00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:40,040 Speaker 3: double digits the next three. Different set of circumstances, obvious, sure, 910 00:47:40,680 --> 00:47:44,200 Speaker 3: completely different, but we have not seen that turnaround story 911 00:47:44,680 --> 00:47:47,520 Speaker 3: at all with West Virginia. Twenty nineteen five and seven, 912 00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:50,480 Speaker 3: twenty twenty six and four weird. 913 00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:51,720 Speaker 1: COVID year Make of it what you will. 914 00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:55,000 Speaker 3: Last year finished the year six and seven, so by 915 00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:57,839 Speaker 3: a large five hundred program under Neil Brown, you need 916 00:47:57,840 --> 00:47:59,560 Speaker 3: to see if you can turn things around in good direction. 917 00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:01,480 Speaker 3: We take one more question. 918 00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:07,160 Speaker 1: All right, this is from an alpha from Patreon in 919 00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:12,960 Speaker 1: memory of Charles Entenmann. The Unforgettable Fire would like to know, ty, 920 00:48:13,480 --> 00:48:16,960 Speaker 1: did he just recently pass Charles Intemen? I've never heard 921 00:48:16,360 --> 00:48:22,440 Speaker 1: of well Entimates the supermarket brand donuts. You've never heard 922 00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:25,160 Speaker 1: of Entemens. No, it must be weirdly regional. You're you're 923 00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:31,360 Speaker 1: on the outside. Yeah.

Yeah, talk me 925 00:48:36,719 --> 00:48:38,719 Speaker 1: through your stance on breakfast page. I don't really eat 926 00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:39,920 Speaker 1: in the morning, but that doesn't mean I don't eat 927 00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:43,040 Speaker 1: breakfast pastries, just a different time of day. Yeah, I 928 00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:44,400 Speaker 1: mean I love. 929 00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:47,520 Speaker 3: A good a good breakfast pastry. 930 00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:48,640 Speaker 1: I'm a big time fan of it. 931 00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:53,000 Speaker 3: I love a good blueberry muffin. 932 00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:56,880 Speaker 1: Okay, talk to me through, talk me through your ideal 933 00:48:56,920 --> 00:49:00,560 Speaker 1: blueberry muffin.

That's your complaint. No, 936 00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:10,719 Speaker 1: it's not a complaint, but it's. 937 00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:13,239 Speaker 3: Just you just said they're too big. That sounds like 938 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:17,400 Speaker 3: a complaint. It's not intended as a complaint. But you 939 00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:19,800 Speaker 3: can't eat those things without a fork and a knife. 940 00:49:21,080 --> 00:49:24,040 Speaker 3: It's impossible if you try to eat. If you try 941 00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:28,319 Speaker 3: to eat the full blueberry muffin, just by sticking it 942 00:49:28,320 --> 00:49:31,400 Speaker 3: in your mouth, you look like you're a barbarian. 943 00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:34,120 Speaker 1: That's true, because they're huge. And then you just rip 944 00:49:34,200 --> 00:49:34,720 Speaker 1: off chunks. 945 00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:36,000 Speaker 2: Then you get crumbsle over you. 946 00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:38,120 Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I want I 947 00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:42,880 Speaker 3: want the primal blueberry muffin experience.

Do you 964 00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:29,000 Speaker 3: have an answer? 965 00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:31,640 Speaker 1: Well, I have blueberry muffin thoughts.

I would like crystallized sugar or pearl sugar, 971 00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:48,440 Speaker 1: which sort of looks like sesame seeds, but a little 972 00:50:48,520 --> 00:50:52,080 Speaker 1: baking sugar type things. Maybe a strusole presence, you know, 973 00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:56,160 Speaker 1: the sort of clustery, crunchy type elements of a of 974 00:50:56,200 --> 00:51:00,080 Speaker 1: a muffin. I never hate a strusle top, but I 975 00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:02,960 Speaker 1: I do want that harder top to a muffin if 976 00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:05,160 Speaker 1: I'm in that direction. And yeah, the crystal eye sugar 977 00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:07,840 Speaker 1: or the pearl sugar whatever, I'm great with. I like 978 00:51:07,880 --> 00:51:10,359 Speaker 1: it warm, though, I want that. I want a little 979 00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:11,759 Speaker 1: bit of steam when I opened it up fresh out 980 00:51:11,800 --> 00:51:14,120 Speaker 1: of the oven. Yeah. I'm not a big muffin guy. 981 00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:19,360 Speaker 1: I do like so my go to if I was, 982 00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:21,520 Speaker 1: if I were to be offered any sort of traditional 983 00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:24,080 Speaker 1: breakfast pastry. I want an old fashioned donut, or I 984 00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:27,520 Speaker 1: want like an apple frit or something like that. A 985 00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:31,640 Speaker 1: donut with texture, with ridges with crevasses, that's what I want. 986 00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:35,719 Speaker 1: I like a good lemon muffin, but I haven't found 987 00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:37,320 Speaker 1: a lot of good ones that I love. There was 988 00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:39,840 Speaker 1: a place in Brooklyn called Smith Canteen that made the 989 00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:41,960 Speaker 1: best I've ever had rest in peace. No longer there 990 00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:46,239 Speaker 1: the other breakfast that or the pastry that I like, 991 00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:48,040 Speaker 1: you can't find it in a lot of places. Is 992 00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:53,719 Speaker 1: It's my definitively like hipster answer. There is a Swedish 993 00:51:54,040 --> 00:51:59,319 Speaker 1: breakfast pastry. It's kind of like a cinnamon roll, but 994 00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:02,279 Speaker 1: it's like a It's if you combined the appearance and 995 00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:05,160 Speaker 1: texture of a garlic knot with the taste of a 996 00:52:05,160 --> 00:52:07,759 Speaker 1: cinnamon roll. We may have stopped off and got one 997 00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:11,319 Speaker 1: of these in Austin together, Okay. It's called so you 998 00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:14,120 Speaker 1: can get it with a with a cardamom presence, okay, 999 00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:17,120 Speaker 1: and that's really good, or just the cinnamon and have 1000 00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:21,000 Speaker 1: the sugar. It's called a canal booler okay, And I'd 1001 00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:23,000 Speaker 1: had never had one before going to this place. Easy 1002 00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:25,040 Speaker 1: Tiger of which you wear an easy tiger hat on 1003 00:52:25,120 --> 00:52:29,560 Speaker 1: the show sometimes down. Yeah, but it goes really well 1004 00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:32,759 Speaker 1: with coffee because it's not iced like a cinnamon roll. 1005 00:52:32,840 --> 00:52:36,040 Speaker 1: So it's it's not that like cinnabun sweet and dripping 1006 00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:38,640 Speaker 1: kind of thing and messy. It's a little bit smaller 1007 00:52:38,640 --> 00:52:41,200 Speaker 1: and more handheld, and you get the texture from the knots. 1008 00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:43,759 Speaker 1: So I think that is my and I like the 1009 00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:49,440 Speaker 1: cardamom version. That is my hipster snobby answer. And then 1010 00:52:49,520 --> 00:52:52,920 Speaker 1: apple fritter or blueberry old fashioned donut if I'm sticking 1011 00:52:52,920 --> 00:52:57,320 Speaker 1: with it. I'm not a big wasissanct guy. I like Bobka. 1012 00:52:57,400 --> 00:52:59,560 Speaker 1: Bobka can be good for as a breakfast paste that 1013 00:52:59,600 --> 00:53:00,600 Speaker 1: again has that texture. 1014 00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:04,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, here's the problem with this question. Yeah, guys, stop 1015 00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:09,239 Speaker 3: asking us food questions. Stop stop asking the food questions. 1016 00:53:09,600 --> 00:53:13,239 Speaker 2: All right, he likes food.

I don't I know something that tastes 1021 00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:27,360 Speaker 3: good when I that's what I know. I'm looking desperately. 1022 00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:30,320 Speaker 3: I can't turn the camera around. I am looking desperately 1023 00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:32,919 Speaker 3: on Google images to find the name of the thing 1024 00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:34,759 Speaker 3: that I know I like, but I couldn't think of 1025 00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:38,680 Speaker 3: and defaulted to blueberry muffins. Let's just peel back the 1026 00:53:38,719 --> 00:53:41,360 Speaker 3: kimono here and let you know what's going on inside 1027 00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:44,640 Speaker 3: my head. I am desperately searching for an answer here. 1028 00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:48,160 Speaker 3: I looked at these questions beforehand. I still don't know 1029 00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:49,759 Speaker 3: the name of the thing that I actually like. 1030 00:53:50,040 --> 00:53:51,880 Speaker 1: Can you describe it? We can all work together. 1031 00:53:52,360 --> 00:53:54,040 Speaker 2: It sort of flakes a little bit. 1032 00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:56,400 Speaker 1: But it's not a croissant. It's not a crysant. 1033 00:53:56,520 --> 00:53:57,200 Speaker 2: It's bigger. 1034 00:53:57,400 --> 00:53:59,840 Speaker 1: Give me a shape. It could be any. 1035 00:53:59,680 --> 00:54:03,160 Speaker 3: Shape square, and it's sort of it doesn't necessarily have 1036 00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:08,280 Speaker 3: like a real sweet flavor to it, almost like maybe 1037 00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:09,760 Speaker 3: like a cream cheese filling. 1038 00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:15,880 Speaker 1: Okay, of sorts, So is it more savory? Is it 1039 00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:19,759 Speaker 1: a scone? A savory scone? It's not a scone's. 1040 00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:23,440 Speaker 3: It's more it's just more of like a cream cheese taste. 1041 00:54:23,160 --> 00:54:30,160 Speaker 1: To it, a cream cheese square, a rectangular, traditional flaky pastry, 1042 00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:33,759 Speaker 1: possibly on the more savory side. Yeah, it's not a 1043 00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:35,919 Speaker 1: pop tart. No, it's not a popart. Did you grow 1044 00:54:35,960 --> 00:54:37,560 Speaker 1: up with pop tarts? By the way, is that a 1045 00:54:37,560 --> 00:54:39,080 Speaker 1: part of your rotation growing up. 1046 00:54:39,560 --> 00:54:44,120 Speaker 3: Or currently, say rotation's a bit much, but yes, I mean, 1047 00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:45,800 Speaker 3: of course I grew up with pop tarts. 1048 00:54:46,080 --> 00:54:47,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't really have that many pop I like 1049 00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:49,480 Speaker 1: pop tarts, but I don't really have that many growing up. 1050 00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:54,360 Speaker 1: I'm trying to work through this. So it's a flaky 1051 00:54:54,440 --> 00:55:01,399 Speaker 1: cream cheese breakfast pastry. Flaky cream cheese breakfast pastry. 1052 00:55:01,800 --> 00:55:03,680 Speaker 3: Like, I'm sure there's a name for this thing that 1053 00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:05,120 Speaker 3: I've got in my head.
