Pete so uh. 13 00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:41,239 Speaker 2: A bit of a week we weren't expecting in college football. 14 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,519 Speaker 3: A lot of stuff happening out there. Yeah no, it's 15 00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 3: I mean, there's not gonna be anything too interesting to 16 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:50,880 Speaker 3: morow that I'll be. I mean, if it's not Mendoza, 17 00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 3: who's it gonna be. Because I don't know, I might 18 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:56,960 Speaker 3: vote for this thing. I'm not supposed to say anything, 19 00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 3: but like you know, you saw it tonight. He kind 20 00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 3: of won everything except for the Bulletnikoff, which was interesting. 21 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:09,120 Speaker 3: Because Makayle Lemon wins this thing. I vote for that too, 22 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 3: and nobody I know, know, you know pretty much vote 23 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 3: did not vote for Jeremiah Smith. But okay, you know 24 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 3: the welcome to Award season, here we go. 25 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:20,760 Speaker 1: So so what you're telling me is Steve Vangeli, even 26 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 1: though proving he may be the most valuable player in 27 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: college football. 28 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:25,959 Speaker 2: Is not going to win the Heisman Trophy. 29 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 3: Well, there is not a you know, he got shot. 30 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 3: I'm sure he got vote, you know, maybe ten, but 31 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 3: there's not. But it's this But again, this was I 32 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 3: said before. It was like nine o'clock on Saturday night 33 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 3: and I still didn't quite have my my ballot ready 34 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,040 Speaker 3: to go yet. So, uh, this will This is a 35 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 3: bad year for the Heisman, probably the worst I can 36 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 3: ever remember. There isn't a real Heisman guy there, So 37 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 3: I'm guessing. I'm guessing it's gonna be Mendoza because I'm 38 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 3: gonna think the other three guys probably split them pretty 39 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 3: much equally. 40 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, the odds certainly heavy, heavy in Mendoza favor. But 41 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 2: we were talking about a little bit earlier, Pete, the 42 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 2: fact that all four of these guys were really far 43 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 2: off the map when we started. This season has got 44 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 2: to be good for something. Even if we do the 45 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:20,639 Speaker 2: comparisons of hey, they pale in comparison to these great 46 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 2: seasons in the past, unless. 47 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 3: You know, it means that arch Manning suck. 48 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 2: You know, so it's i mean, he finished strong, Pete, 49 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 2: he finished strong. 50 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,519 Speaker 3: Come on, well, the Heisman is so hard to win. 51 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 3: I mean, like look at stuff like the Doak Walker 52 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 3: and you're like, the Doak Walker is like you know, 53 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 3: Jonathan Taylor and Derrick Henry and Ricky Williams and you know, 54 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:44,839 Speaker 3: all these like real you know guy. I mean there's 55 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 3: some you know, strange names on there as well, but 56 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 3: you know those are like the Titans of you know, 57 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 3: the college football game. You look at the Heisman, all right, 58 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 3: Eric Crouch pretty good, you know. You know, Gina Toretto 59 00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 3: was all right. I mean you've got some interesting characters 60 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 3: on there. But you know, no, look, this year it's 61 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 3: it really was, you know, a year where it was 62 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 3: more about the team. Uh, but none of these guys 63 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 3: did anything that was at a whole other level where 64 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 3: you haven't seen it before, like Jaydon Daniels statistically or 65 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 3: you know, even Travis Hunter to a certain extent, even 66 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:18,799 Speaker 3: though I didn't have him on my ballot. But there's 67 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 3: just not a guy who's like, this is the guy 68 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 3: of the season. And I will still get I get 69 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 3: yelled at everybody by everyone when I do this, especially 70 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 3: people who do what I do, who find this that 71 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 3: might as well say their dogs ugly or something. I 72 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 3: think we should have vothe for the Heisman and the 73 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 3: NFL MVP. By the way, after the seasons they're over, 74 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 3: like when the real when the most important games happened, 75 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 3: Like well, the Big tim Championship didn't matter on Saturday night. 76 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 3: All the matters is you know what is Mendoza saying 77 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 3: do for? Because the saying rips it up and he's 78 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 3: awesome in the college football playoffs. Well, then I don't 79 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 3: know what. You know, we'll do? You know who did 80 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 3: the Heisman thing would be then? So I think we 81 00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 3: should do this after the season is out. 82 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. 83 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 1: It reminds me Pete this year, like what what you said, 84 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 1: the lack of juice, the tepidness. It's kind of like 85 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 1: when Troy Smith won in two thousand and six. Right, 86 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: he was the best quarterback on the best team. He 87 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 1: was a really good leader and nobody jumped out with stats. 88 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: Nobody had seventy touchdowns like Joe Burrow did. So yeah, okay, 89 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: Troy Smith wins. That's kind of what I feel like. 90 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: Fernanda Mendoza is on the best team. He's you know, 91 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: great leader, he's you know, thirty touchdowns, and he's had 92 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: his moments. So yeah, he's gonna win the Heisman Trophy. 93 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:33,600 Speaker 3: And that's kind of a different too. I mean, the 94 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 3: one throw at the end of the game against Ohio 95 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,600 Speaker 3: State is like, okay, well there's a moment. And obviously 96 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 3: the Penn State game, you know, so it's again, all 97 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 3: these guys are good, and I don't like it's it's 98 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 3: hard to like say, you know that when these guys 99 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 3: aren't worthy of these seasons. But again, none of them 100 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 3: stood out. There really isn't a real screaming Heisman war 101 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 3: this year. 102 00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 2: Well, we filibustered long enough with positive that he what 103 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:02,600 Speaker 2: the hell is going on in Michigan. 104 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,599 Speaker 3: I don't know. The whole thing is weird from top 105 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 3: to bottom, and you know, and the number of people 106 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 3: are coming out, Oh I knew this was gonna happen. 107 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,679 Speaker 3: It's like, oh, really, okay, you know that there's always 108 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 3: rumors of this and. 109 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 4: This and this. 110 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 3: It's weird from the beginning. First of all, it's not 111 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 3: a football story. And so the sad part about it 112 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 3: is obviously, you know, here's a guy whose life is 113 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 3: in real, real problems. Now his family's got real problems. 114 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 3: I mean, these are isn't a real world thing, not 115 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 3: like a Connor Stallion type of silly, you know sort 116 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 3: of thing. This is. And and for you know, for 117 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 3: the for Twitter and for every fan bases of other 118 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 3: teams to kind of rip on this in a football 119 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 3: way is just wrong. For Twitter to take its racism 120 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 3: to a whole other level is just obviously even more wrong, 121 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 3: and just it's just ugly from top to bottom. And look, 122 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:03,159 Speaker 3: it's it's been handled wrong by Michigan in every way. 123 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 3: I haven't heard anything yet about you know, the woman 124 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 3: who's making claims here that it sounds like it's just 125 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 3: there was just a violation of school policy. 126 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 5: She isn't. 127 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 3: I haven't heard anything yet. I mean, it could be 128 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 3: very wrong here. So if something goes in sideways, don't 129 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,159 Speaker 3: hold me to this. But like, it doesn't seem like 130 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 3: there was anything other than just something that goes against 131 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 3: the morality clause in the contract that Moore had and 132 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:31,679 Speaker 3: then obviously gets fired there because of this morality clause, 133 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 3: and just everything goes sideway. So it's just an awful, 134 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 3: awful time for everyone involved. 135 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 1: Now the thing is beaten out to turn this into 136 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: a football story. You know, we mentioned this last hour. 137 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,160 Speaker 1: I know that it seems like we're in early days 138 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: and Sharon Moore. 139 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 2: And this is just unfolding. 140 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:50,039 Speaker 1: But Michigan can't really wait to hire a head coach. 141 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 1: You might start losing players, you might start losing commits. Like, 142 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: you got to fix this thing pretty fast. And the 143 00:06:56,160 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: fact that we haven't heard anything, I'm thinking that if 144 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 1: Kaylin de Boor loses to Oklahoma, he's the coach of 145 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 1: Michigan next year, and he's. 146 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,599 Speaker 2: Bought out of Alabama and he's a new head coach in. 147 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 3: Michigan who's playing tomorrow night? What there's a bowl game 148 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 3: that's going to be happening right about now, right around your. 149 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 2: It's Boise State, yeah, Washington, Yeah, and uh. 150 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 3: Huh, there you go, you get there, get there, you 151 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 3: got it with good Fish. That's probably your guy in 152 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 3: the clubhouse. 153 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 2: It's Jet Fish. Huh. 154 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 3: Okay, I do, I do. I didn't even to make 155 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 3: this a weird but like, yeah. 156 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 2: See I was I was more thinking you were going 157 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 2: to talk about John Cena and Gunter, but yeah, go ahead. 158 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 3: No, no, no, the whole point being that, you know what, 159 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 3: there's the whole there's never a good time for a 160 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 3: coaching change. Well this is pretty good because you know 161 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 3: it doesn't matter. Michigan is not playing for anything. Real, 162 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 3: it's a ball game. Okay, whatever, Uh, you just pass 163 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 3: the signing day things. You're fine. You're in transfer portal time. 164 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 3: That's fine too. You got a whole off eason to 165 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 3: get everything in place. So if jet Fish is your guy, 166 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 3: well he's available tomorrow night, right about this time. So 167 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 3: play into the rule. I mean, you guys are everybody else. Actually, 168 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 3: we in a weird way sort of broke it and 169 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 3: got trouble for it. When remember the whole thing about 170 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 3: less Miles and less Miles was you know, gonna be 171 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,119 Speaker 3: the next head coach. And then all of a sudden 172 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 3: they miraculously got into the BCS Championship, and you know, 173 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 3: Michigan had to act fast, and you got Rich Rodriguez. 174 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 3: I hope they learned from their mistake. That you don't 175 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 3: have to rush this, So it's the bores your guy, 176 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 3: or if a Tommy Reese is your guy, or a 177 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 3: Jesse Minter, if they've if they've found someone in this 178 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 3: whole process that they said, this isn't going to be 179 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 3: the best head coach in the University of Michigan, then 180 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 3: wait a month, you know, wait a few weeks. You know, 181 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 3: seeing yourself as a headache. If you're not sure that 182 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 3: it's someone like a jet fish. 183 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 2: Well, as we start looking ahead, I mean we're going 184 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 2: down all the batting odds. It's some fun names certainly 185 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 2: mixed in their pete. But you know, how about you 186 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 2: immersing yourself. I mean, hey, we got one Bowl game, 187 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 2: but then you know, you get playoffs are just a 188 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:16,959 Speaker 2: week away. 189 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, And the crazy part about it is that we 190 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 3: still have the time including this. I've been on how 191 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 3: many radio shows of the last donal was four days? 192 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:30,960 Speaker 3: Not one have I talked about any specific game because 193 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,839 Speaker 3: it's all been about how it's the Notre Dame process 194 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 3: or now More or Lane Kiffen. And the biggest problem 195 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 3: of all is, gosh, if you look at that Saturday 196 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 3: of first round games, like there's no all these people say, oh, well, 197 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:51,320 Speaker 3: this corrupt college football playoff system. If the if they're corrupt, 198 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 3: there's no way that they willingly would have wanted to 199 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 3: show choose to have.

And then you get to 203 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 3: Lane Ole, miss which was a forty five to ten 204 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 3: game earlier this year. And then Oregon James Madison where 205 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 3: if this isn't fifty two to two, I will be shocked. 206 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,839 Speaker 2: I will be And they run him Pete, They run 207 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 2: him against the Bears and Packers, yes, and the. 208 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 3: Detect the Eagles and the Commanders in the middle of 209 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 3: the afternoon where everyone's in there, you know, fantasy playoffs 210 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 3: and stuff, care about this stuff, and you're right, Bears 211 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,719 Speaker 3: Packers is going to be like, who's I'm going to 212 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 3: watch this? I'm gonna be it. I'm gonna be the 213 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,319 Speaker 3: only person in America who's gonna sit there. And even 214 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:40,680 Speaker 3: though I live in Chicago and I'll have it on 215 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 3: multi view and I'll probably have to sound on the Bears, 216 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 3: but I'm the only person who's going to actually have 217 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 3: on part of a screen this James Madison Oregon game 218 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 3: unless it gets good and then you know, social media, Hey, 219 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 3: you gotta turn to this. I again, if it's not 220 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 3: twenty eight nothing in the first quarter or after at 221 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 3: least the first drive, I'll I will be absolutely stunned 222 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 3: if Oregon just doesn't do this. And it's fine, I 223 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:06,959 Speaker 3: get it, you give the guy the shot. That's kind 224 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:08,959 Speaker 3: of the point, a little bit of a reward for Oregon. 225 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 3: But again, the whole idea that the college football Playoff 226 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 3: is corrupt, well, if it was corrupt, then James Madison 227 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 3: is not playing, like you said on Sunday night opposite 228 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 3: Bears Packers. 229 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 1: All right, Pete, So let's finish here now to combo 230 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 1: the NFL and college football. Like you said, seeing all 231 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 1: the players, seeing all the quarterbacks you have right now, 232 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:32,440 Speaker 1: we got a lot of guys who are yeah, they're okay, 233 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: not quite what we expect for twenty twenty seven. And 234 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: I'm sure if Arch Manning declared for the NFL draft, 235 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 1: he'd be the number one overall pick. But if I 236 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,720 Speaker 1: said to you right now what you've seen this year, 237 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:46,320 Speaker 1: you know, boldseason still to come. Obviously, if I said, 238 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 1: who's the first quarterback off the board in the NFL, 239 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: who would you pick as the first quarterback off the board? 240 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 2: Who are you telling me? 241 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 3: I am really curious to see what Dante Moore does, 242 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 3: and I think I feel like Oregon's been a little 243 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 3: bit lost in this mix, only because of all the 244 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 3: noise in the room from Indiana and Ohio State. I 245 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 3: like Mendoza, I'm not there that he's the number one 246 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 3: be all end all guy. I don't.

I'm 250 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:23,720 Speaker 3: waiting to see what he does in this playoff. But 251 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 3: I really want to see what Dante Moore does, because 252 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,960 Speaker 3: he's got the skills, He's got the next level things 253 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 3: in place there.

Maybe 387 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 1: maybe we know who's gonna win after we what we 388 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:35,200 Speaker 1: found out tonight. Maybe we got another crazy day with 389 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: Sharon more But look this is and I look, I'm 390 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 1: I don't want to say I am luke warm on 391 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:45,119 Speaker 1: this because you know, I don't know that the Jets 392 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 1: can get him, but I don't know how excited I 393 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 1: am about the Jets if they got him. But look, 394 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:52,879 Speaker 1: Fernanda Mendoza is likely going to walk away with the 395 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:56,159 Speaker 1: Heisman Trophy tomorrow. Probably won't be a close vote, but 396 00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 1: not going to be a runaway tonight. He is now 397 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,919 Speaker 1: even more favored to win where he takes home the 398 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:07,560 Speaker 1: Maxwell and Davey O'Brien awards. Looks he's going to wind 399 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 1: up winning. And we talked about it last week basically, 400 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: whoever had the big week conference championship week, that's gonna 401 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 1: be your Heisman Trophy winner because it's not a stat year. 402 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 2: It's not a. 403 00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow accounted for seventy touchdowns like this is well, 404 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,159 Speaker 1: I mean, you didn't even have a big stat to 405 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 1: finish it off. Just get the W and move on, 406 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,440 Speaker 1: succeed and proceed, right, I mean it's not and it's 407 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: not like Mendoz or any of the quarterbacks are light 408 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,879 Speaker 1: in the world on fire for the NFL Draft. But yeah, okay, 409 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 1: he's gonna win the Heisman and he should thirty three 410 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:37,119 Speaker 1: touchdowns to lead all FBS. Think about that for a second, 411 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 1: thirty three touchdowns. Like, that's a number that in the 412 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 1: early two thousand it's like, wow, man, thirty Now it's 413 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 1: like thirty three, that's it. 414 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:46,639 Speaker 2: Thirty three touchdowns what he threw for It. 415 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 1: Isn't that like, but but he's got like twenty rushing touchdowns. 416 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 2: Right, Oh no, we don't. Oh okay, oh, thirty three 417 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,400 Speaker 2: down Okay, It's it's not a stat year. 418 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 1: This is one of those years where you know, I 419 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:01,120 Speaker 1: compare it to it's it's all like and I'm going 420 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:04,200 Speaker 1: back to the mid two thousands when Troy Smith won 421 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:08,280 Speaker 1: quarterback at Ohio State. Right, Ohio State was undefeated. He 422 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 1: was their quarterback all season. He was a great leader. 423 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,200 Speaker 1: He led them into the you know, into the playoffs, 424 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:17,199 Speaker 1: and it was one of those Hey, he was the 425 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,879 Speaker 1: quarterback on the best team. He's gonna win the Heisman Trophy. 426 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,080 Speaker 1: That's kind of how I feel like Fanana Mendoza. Over 427 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,480 Speaker 1: the course of the season, Indiana has proven themselves to 428 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 1: be the best team in the country, beating Ohio State 429 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: last week, clearly only undefeated team left. Fanana Mendoza has 430 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 1: been pretty good and he's the quarterback. I think it's 431 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,400 Speaker 1: pretty simple. That's pretty easy math to say, Fana Mendoza 432 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:37,159 Speaker 1: Heisman Trophy. 433 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 4: Yeah. 434 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:41,440 Speaker 2: What's been the sad part of it though, is all 435 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,119 Speaker 2: week long, it becomes the look at these are not 436 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 2: even comparable. And here's some of these great resumes you 437 00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:50,439 Speaker 2: mentioned Burrow, go back to some of the great individual 438 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 2: seasons that we've had through the years. Go back to 439 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 2: the heroics of Tbow or Cam Newton's ridiculous numbers, like, okay, 440 00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 2: that's not this year. Okay, it's a different it's a 441 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 2: different landscape where we've got talent spread out all over 442 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:08,200 Speaker 2: these teams and with nil and all of these opportunities. 443 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 2: It's just a different world. What I think is cool 444 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 2: was in the final Final four is you got four 445 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,360 Speaker 2: guys who were far off the map as far as 446 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:21,160 Speaker 2: the Heisman balloting and early projections when we got into 447 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 2: the season. Right current betting odds is Mendoza's ninety two 448 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 2: percent implied probability that he wins. But you look at 449 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:31,479 Speaker 2: coming into the season, arch Man and Cade Club, Nick Garrett, 450 00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,480 Speaker 2: Nussmayer got bench multiple times like just keep going on 451 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:36,399 Speaker 2: down the line. You have all those guys and in 452 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:40,639 Speaker 2: the end it's Mendoza, Pavia Love and saying none of 453 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:44,679 Speaker 2: them were better than twenty to one, saying was twenty 454 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 2: to one, Love was fifty to one, Pavia was one 455 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 2: hundred and twenty five to one, and Mendoza was fifty 456 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 2: five to one in the open. So you just talk 457 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:58,120 Speaker 2: about the run of a college landscape and where we're 458 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 2: at in the just a very different game. And we've 459 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 2: talked about it every week, watching it at the political theater. 460 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:09,200 Speaker 2: That has been the playoff committee and the run through, 461 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 2: and this is just you know, the culmination of that. 462 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:15,680 Speaker 2: Now for your Jets, we wait and see. Yeah. 463 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 1: Look, here's the thing is that I'm I'm okay. After 464 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 1: seeing the quarterbacks play over the course of the past 465 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 1: few weeks, right coming into the season, after the first 466 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:27,880 Speaker 1: three four weeks, I'm like, oh man, it's gonna Mendoza 467 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 1: could be Dante Moore, Ty Simpson is playing really well. 468 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 1: They're gonna have oh whoever needs a quarterback. You're gonna 469 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 1: be at the top of the draft. You're gonna be excited. 470 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 1: But nobody ever really took that next step. I feel 471 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 1: like we're kind of falling all over ourselves to try 472 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,920 Speaker 1: to make Fernana Mendoza and to be look great college quarterback. 473 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,440 Speaker 2: Right, This is this two different things we're thinking about here. 474 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 1: But part of the excitement is who's gonna jump to 475 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 1: that next level and be a great player? And yeah, 476 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:54,159 Speaker 1: somebody will, right, Maybe it's Mendoza, maybe it's Dante Moore, 477 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 1: maybe it's Garrett nus Meyer. 478 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 2: Who knows. 479 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:58,680 Speaker 1: But there's not that overall excitement of wow, what a 480 00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:02,440 Speaker 1: great quarterback class. And you see all evaluators saying, hey, man, 481 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 1: you're going to see NFL teams push their quarterback ships 482 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 1: to twenty twenty seven when it seems like it's going 483 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:09,399 Speaker 1: to be a little bit better. I guarantee you if 484 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 1: Arch Manning came out this year, he'd be the number 485 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 1: one pick. Well, and that's where we're in the latest rumor, right, 486 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 1: that's where at if he came out, he'll be the 487 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:16,880 Speaker 1: number one pick this year. 488 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he finished strong, finished well. And you 489 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:24,440 Speaker 2: know you're talking about potentially teams like the Rams, right, 490 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 2: we talked about them a little bit with Joe Burrow. 491 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 2: Folks can find that full podcast yesterday. All the speculation, 492 00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,120 Speaker 2: you know, Matthew Stafford in his future and whatever else. 493 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,639 Speaker 2: But when we're starting to look at at teams that 494 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:39,399 Speaker 2: have an established quarterback. I wouldn't be surprised if with 495 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 2: a lot of these players that we're looking at here, 496 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,200 Speaker 2: you got two different things going on at play. One, 497 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:47,920 Speaker 2: if you're not going to get the first round valuation 498 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 2: and evaluation from these talent folks, as you're going towards 499 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:54,320 Speaker 2: the draft, you're like, I can make how much in 500 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 2: nil money if I stick around or I move to 501 00:23:57,119 --> 00:24:00,920 Speaker 2: another school or whatever, because it's pretty good money, right. 502 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 2: The other side is that you have teams like the 503 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 2: Rams and maybe others that have a quarterback and again 504 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:11,920 Speaker 2: the Stafford thing, we don't know longevity, he could walk 505 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 2: away tomorrow. Is the fact that you're looking at maybe 506 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:19,800 Speaker 2: going back to more of the Packers model if you're 507 00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 2: not sure right of, hey, let's get a guy in 508 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:24,959 Speaker 2: the building before we need to and we bring him 509 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,879 Speaker 2: along because how many teams have the break glass in 510 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:29,680 Speaker 2: case of emergency? Was like, well, it's got to work 511 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,640 Speaker 2: with this guy, and then they're terrible. It's like, all right, 512 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,119 Speaker 2: how long do we run this out before we go 513 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:39,120 Speaker 2: draft another guy and another one and another, Like it's 514 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 2: just that same thing year after year. And while folks 515 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:44,639 Speaker 2: don't like Jordan you know, some folks still try to 516 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:48,440 Speaker 2: go against what Jordan loves become like, I think he's 517 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:50,880 Speaker 2: a lot better an option and a lot more efficient 518 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,359 Speaker 2: in option than almost anything else you're running out there. 519 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 2: So it's that kind of thing with these quarterbacks moving forward, 520 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,080 Speaker 2: is that maybe we get a little bit of a 521 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:03,479 Speaker 2: landscape shift in the NFL as well in terms of 522 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:05,679 Speaker 2: trying to get these guys straight in because a lot 523 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 2: of them only played one year as at high levels too, right, 524 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:10,880 Speaker 2: and what have we seen with that time and again 525 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 2: in the NFL that don't work? No, right now, straight 526 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 2: from twelve or twelve games or fifteen games? 527 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 4: Right? 528 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. 529 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,439 Speaker 1: Bill Parcells would always say, I'm taking a guy with 530 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 1: three years and thirty starts. Those are the only guys 531 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:24,879 Speaker 1: I'm not taking something with one year. Who's a one 532 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 1: year wonder that all of a sudden shows up and 533 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:29,879 Speaker 1: is terrific. Now, certainly there are guys who are going 534 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 1: to break that mold. Joe Burrow certainly broke that mold, 535 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 1: and other other guys will do that. But overall, yeah, 536 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,639 Speaker 1: it's it's a very developmental year quarterback, right. I Mean, 537 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 1: that's why I feel like it's been a tepid Heisman 538 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 1: race the entire season. I can remember how many conversations 539 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 1: have we had about the Heisman Trophy over the course 540 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:47,920 Speaker 1: the last two and a half months. 541 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 2: One we had any more than. 542 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 1: A passing thought or a passing question with Pete Futec 543 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:55,360 Speaker 1: on the Heisman Trophy, like it's it's like again, it's 544 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 1: a it's a two thousand and six Troy Smith. He's 545 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:01,359 Speaker 1: a terrific leader, and he's the best quarterback on the 546 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,639 Speaker 1: best team. And there's your Heisman trophy. Wather, that's not 547 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 1: he goes. 548 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:07,360 Speaker 2: I mean a little bit preseason, a little bit as 549 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:11,439 Speaker 2: the stuff started chaotically for Arch Manning and a few others, 550 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,199 Speaker 2: But otherwise, I mean, does the Heisman still have the 551 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 2: same juice that it once did? Right? It used to 552 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 2: be much must see TV. Then it became a three 553 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 2: hour TV show with a lot of interviews and cast 554 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 2: like I'll tune in in the final five minutes to 555 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 2: find out who they crown when the betting odds are close. 556 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:30,960 Speaker 2: But in this particular case, I'm sure we'll get Mendoza 557 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 2: speech and he can't top what he did after the 558 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 2: Big Ten title game. Anyway, No, no, no matter what he'd 559 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 2: be tough. That's gonna be tough, ye right, he ain't 560 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 2: top in that minute and a half or whatever the 561 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 2: hell that was of excited utterances and alternating between a 562 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:46,119 Speaker 2: hype man and religious talk. I mean, it was just 563 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:48,400 Speaker 2: going back and forth. It's like, Wow, here's a lot 564 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 2: going on in this man's head. But he is jacked up, 565 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 2: and I'm there with him. 566 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 1: Now competing with the Heisman trophy Tomorrow, I'm sure will 567 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 1: be whatever twist and turn we get from form Michigan 568 00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:02,400 Speaker 1: head coach Oron Moore, who appear in court today remotely 569 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 1: in a prison jumpsuit facing a felony and a couple 570 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:10,360 Speaker 1: of misdemeanor chargers following his dismissal as Michigan head coach. Now, 571 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 1: with every day, a few more details get out, and 572 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 1: today we get a better example of the whole picture 573 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 1: where Sharon Moore and this staffer had a relationship going 574 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:23,439 Speaker 1: on the last couple of years, according many reports, was 575 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 1: the worst kept secret in the athletic department. And when 576 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:28,919 Speaker 1: it got close to being found out a couple of 577 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:34,639 Speaker 1: weeks ago, Sharon Moore, who had somehow the woman he 578 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:36,680 Speaker 1: was having an affair with, got a raise on her 579 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 1: annual salary from fifty grand a year to ninety grand 580 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:41,240 Speaker 1: a year. Didn't get a bump, didn't get a promotion, 581 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:43,879 Speaker 1: just say hey, you got more money. When this was 582 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:48,119 Speaker 1: started to become a bigger story and unable to be 583 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,439 Speaker 1: contained anymore, or it was going to break wide open, 584 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 1: he was advised to break off this relationship and not 585 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:57,679 Speaker 1: have any contact with the staffer. He was advised to 586 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: not have any contact with her. He then decided to 587 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 1: fire her instead of transferring her elsewhere in the football program. 588 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,159 Speaker 1: This is when she came forward to the school with 589 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:09,439 Speaker 1: details of their affair. He was fired. He goes to 590 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 1: her house with a knife, He threatens to kill her, 591 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:16,719 Speaker 1: and then watch and watch him kill himself. He drops 592 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 1: the knife, he runs out, The police catch him at 593 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 1: a church. And now this is this mess for Michigan, 594 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: as we said last night, just gets bigger and bigger. 595 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:26,720 Speaker 1: You think this is bad, No, no, just wait twenty 596 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:28,639 Speaker 1: four hours, and wait twenty four hours after that, and 597 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 1: after that after that. This is just the beginning, because 598 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,200 Speaker 1: now we're going to get into who knew what when 599 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:37,120 Speaker 1: with this affair. But the biggest thing that I take 600 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 1: away from this today and I scratch my head and 601 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 1: I go, you know, you see in movies, you see 602 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 1: characters that somehow juggle all kinds of balls in the 603 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 1: air at once, and they always seem to make the 604 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 1: right decision right, Like like I watched Jax Teller and 605 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 1: Sons of Anarchy, I'm going, nobody has more on his 606 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: plate in the not even the president has more on 607 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 1: the plate on his plate in a world in this guy? 608 00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:58,719 Speaker 2: How does he do this? Right? How does he do this? 609 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 1: And when you're doing things like here's Sharon Moore who 610 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 1: was married and he was carrying on an affair and 611 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 1: he's the head coach of Michigan. This is a dude 612 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:07,640 Speaker 1: with a lot on his plate, man, right, But when 613 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,240 Speaker 1: it goes on for a couple of years, obviously he's 614 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 1: able to do things. But the mistake that I can't 615 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 1: come back to, and I shake my head and go, 616 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 1: how do you think this was a good idea? When 617 00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 1: you get advised to not work directly with her anymore? Now, 618 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 1: there's many things you could do at that point, right, 619 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 1: You can transfer, you can just say, hey, listen, we 620 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 1: shouldn't have contact anymore. 621 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 2: It's getting too hot for us. Whatever it is, however it. 622 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 1: Is, But you really think firing her was gonna end it? 623 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 1: Like you think you were that powerful that firing her 624 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 1: was gonna edit Like she wasn't gonna say, oh, okay, 625 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:41,680 Speaker 1: you're gonna fire me. 626 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, I'll fire you. How about that, 627 00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 2: I gotta fire you? Rong, No, I'll fire you. Go 628 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go to the school. 629 00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 1: And it's like, well, okay, did you really think fire 630 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 1: that was gonna be it? 631 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 2: Like that was gonna she was gonna walk away and 632 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 2: go ah. We had some laughs. That's it. It's over. 633 00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 2: What Yeah that was was that should not have been 634 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 2: a branch? How do you think? How did you think 635 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 2: that was gonna go that way? I read that. 636 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 1: That's what baffles me the most about all of this 637 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 1: is that, after all that's going on and keeping all 638 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 1: these balls in the air, that's the decision he made that. 639 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 1: They're like, okay, we're gonna fight. I'm gonna fire you. 640 00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:18,920 Speaker 1: And that's when she goes to the school. Because I 641 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:21,600 Speaker 1: was wondering, oh boy, when it turns out she went 642 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,920 Speaker 1: to the school and told them about their affair, You're thinking, okay, 643 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 1: why what is this now? Now the situation could get 644 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 1: even more out of control. But then oh he was 645 00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: gonna fire. Of course he's gonna go and say, oh no, no, no, 646 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 1: you think it nunhe of you just wait and see 647 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 1: what happens now you want to fire me from this job? 648 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 1: Like that? That's the one where I go, Wow, I 649 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:39,880 Speaker 1: don't know how that decision was made. 650 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:41,720 Speaker 2: I really don't. What is it? The old hell hath 651 00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 2: no fury. As for the forty thousand dollars raise, remember 652 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 2: Babe Ruth was once asked why he was making as 653 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 2: much as the president, and he said he had a 654 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,080 Speaker 2: better year. So well, I think you can look at 655 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:54,000 Speaker 2: Babe Ruth and see the home runs ago probably a 656 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:56,520 Speaker 2: better year than the president. And and maybe maybe she 657 00:30:56,680 --> 00:31:00,200 Speaker 2: was looking at some metrics on and off the the 658 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 2: office that that may have have led to that. I 659 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:06,000 Speaker 2: don't know happiness, quotionis and whatever else. But uh yeah, 660 00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 2: in terms of that being the end game to this, 661 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 2: I we we questioned some of the rationality. You know, 662 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 2: the heart wants what it wants whatever else, and and 663 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 2: decision making complicated, as you say, you know, you got 664 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,120 Speaker 2: a lot of things, and and as we've watched plenty 665 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 2: of uh what spy movies and crime movies and and 666 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 2: heist movies during our time together here at Fox Sports Radio. 667 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:34,640 Speaker 2: That we could probably have our own letterboxed, uh subset 668 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 2: for what we've done. You and I've had all the 669 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 2: novels that you've read and and that I've listened to 670 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 2: you talk about. Uh that that we we've got every permutation. 671 00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:46,880 Speaker 2: It never ends with Hey, I can fire this person, 672 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 2: and it's gonna go, well, that's never been a plot 673 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:53,120 Speaker 2: point in any of this stuff. And uh common sense, No, 674 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 2: no editor is gonna take that in from a writer 675 00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 2: and go, Yeah, that's how it should end. No, they're 676 00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 2: kicking back, going that's not gonna work. 677 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 1: I mean, And in big business now, whenever there is 678 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 1: a situation that involves something like this, it is what 679 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 1: is the best thing to do? 680 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:11,680 Speaker 2: Do we do we go and fire them? Do we wait? 681 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:14,360 Speaker 1: Do we make sure we cross all our t's and 682 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:16,240 Speaker 1: dot our i's be where we make that decision because 683 00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 1: we don't know how litigious things are going to get? Right, 684 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 1: Let's look at what happened in front of the lawyers, 685 00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:21,719 Speaker 1: that's right, right. 686 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:23,520 Speaker 2: Look at what happens in sports now when you see 687 00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:24,960 Speaker 2: someone embroiled in a scandal. 688 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 1: Uh and and you know what ESPN used to do this? 689 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:30,719 Speaker 1: Uh really really they were, they were at the forefront 690 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 1: of this. Honestly, is it when something would happen and 691 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:36,479 Speaker 1: if somebody did something that embarrassed the brand embarrassing. We've 692 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 1: seen it elsewhere as well. You know, we've seen in 693 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 1: a fox, We've seen in places. Right, So when the 694 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 1: decision is always okay, we could fire this person right away, 695 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 1: but then it's gonna get litigious, and then we're gonna 696 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 1: be dragged and it goes a big deal and it's 697 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 1: dragged into court and it's all these things. Or we 698 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 1: waited out and their contract ends and we don't hire 699 00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 1: them again, and that's it and we move on and 700 00:32:58,040 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 1: it's and it's and it's just and it's way clean. 701 00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:03,000 Speaker 1: And that's kind of how things are done. Like you 702 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 1: you don't see like that's why companies have to take 703 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 1: so much care into what's going on. And you fire 704 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 1: someone because you don't know what that's gonna mean coming 705 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 1: back at you. What what is that gonna be there? 706 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:14,280 Speaker 1: You fire someone, you open it up to all kinds 707 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 1: of lawsuits and who knows what's gonna be out there? 708 00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 2: What one person knows what it doesn't. It's a big unknown. 709 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:22,440 Speaker 1: So to make that decision to fire somebody when you 710 00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 1: don't know how it's gonna go. 711 00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 2: I go, wow, that is that is? 712 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:28,440 Speaker 1: That is not That's not a page out of out 713 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 1: of any kind of business school I've ever been to. 714 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 1: That when you hey, when you want to fire somebody, 715 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 1: you gotta be damn sure that you have all your 716 00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 1: your pages figured out and your your Tea's crossed and 717 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: your i's dotted before you. 718 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 2: Want to make a move like that. That's a plausible 719 00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 2: deniability up the top. But if this is the worst 720 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 2: kept secret, okay, now it's the who knows what? 721 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 4: Where? How? 722 00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:52,640 Speaker 2: When uh we talk about litigiousness, I mean they think 723 00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 2: of it just in sports. The number of issues that 724 00:33:56,160 --> 00:34:00,480 Speaker 2: have been at all places a lot of times. See 725 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,000 Speaker 2: as you say, let the clock run out, like we're 726 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:06,600 Speaker 2: not getting into the legal eaese because discovery is a 727 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:09,799 Speaker 2: patting gas. John Gruden right as excited as he is 728 00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:13,719 Speaker 2: to get a box a crap from school X and 729 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 2: do an unboxing like he's one of those little kids 730 00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:19,560 Speaker 2: with holiday toys. You're telling me he wouldn't rather have 731 00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:21,960 Speaker 2: been coaching. Now he may end up getting some massive 732 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:24,720 Speaker 2: ass settlement and at all. But doesn't he always strike 733 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:26,279 Speaker 2: you as a guy that would have rather been on 734 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 2: a sideline somewhere. Yeah, I think so. Right, So you know, 735 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:34,720 Speaker 2: and just go on down the line that things come out. 736 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 2: I mean that the Kaepernick case, right, I mean, how 737 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:40,240 Speaker 2: many of the NFL owners, like, we don't need anything 738 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:42,799 Speaker 2: coming out of this, figure out what the settlement is 739 00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 2: and you can debate how much ended up being paid 740 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:50,480 Speaker 2: out in that and so many other cases across our 741 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 2: sporting landscape that have nothing to do with dalliances and 742 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:58,760 Speaker 2: office romances. Those are plenty, and where we've got those 743 00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 2: all across the landscape, plenty of minds have blown up 744 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,640 Speaker 2: over the course of the years for those. But just 745 00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 2: talk about just from the straight business part of it, 746 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 2: it still just goes back to pragmatism of all. Right, 747 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:16,080 Speaker 2: let's see, while this is not grounded or hasn't festered 748 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:19,320 Speaker 2: in rationality, at some point we need to be adults 749 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,239 Speaker 2: and come to an endgame. Uh, you know which is 750 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:25,880 Speaker 2: bet and for this you know his family, friends, you 751 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 2: know everybody associated, right, the wife and kids, Uh, and 752 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:33,240 Speaker 2: the how this all came to a head, Like you're 753 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:37,080 Speaker 2: you're just if you feel terrible for all of it, 754 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:41,359 Speaker 2: but you know, the firing was the the step if 755 00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 2: you avoided that, I mean settlements and agreements and separation 756 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,839 Speaker 2: termination however you want to want to come to it. 757 00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:53,080 Speaker 2: This was just not the way to try to end 758 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:57,360 Speaker 2: multiple years. I mean, this wasn't a one one or two, uh, 759 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:00,319 Speaker 2: you know, meet up kind of things.

But no, I love Philip. You know, 840 00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:22,759 Speaker 4: I'm this is fun. You know, he's he's put off 841 00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:27,040 Speaker 4: the Hall of Fame thing for five years and you know, 842 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:31,239 Speaker 4: in all likelihood because they're they're there. Once he gets activated, 843 00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:37,160 Speaker 4: he then they're taking him off the ballot and uh 844 00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:40,760 Speaker 4: for this year, and they're probably have a revote because 845 00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:42,759 Speaker 4: I think he's probably there's a good chance he would 846 00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:47,600 Speaker 4: make the top fifteen this year if if he if 847 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:50,960 Speaker 4: he does, you know, if he's still considered eligible. So 848 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:52,799 Speaker 4: we're going to have a problem with that if he's 849 00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:54,719 Speaker 4: if they went like. 850 00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:56,440 Speaker 1: If he didn't play and he was up this year 851 00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:58,560 Speaker 1: for the first time, Like, how close is it actually getting? 852 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:01,560 Speaker 7: I mean, I think he's well, he's in the top fifteen, 853 00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 7: but we you. 854 00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:05,719 Speaker 4: Know, we've talked about the mass part of it, and 855 00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:08,719 Speaker 4: the mass part of it complicates it a lot. I 856 00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:12,239 Speaker 4: don't think he's a first ballot guy, and especially not 857 00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:16,200 Speaker 4: this year where you have Breeze and Fitzgerald and Witten 858 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:20,400 Speaker 4: and Gore and then you have holdovers like Anda and. 859 00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 7: Keikley and even Eli, Like I have. 860 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,759 Speaker 4: A hard time between them trying to figure out the 861 00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 4: Eli Rivers. I think Rivers was a better player, But Eli, 862 00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:34,239 Speaker 4: did you know the two Super Bowls weigh pretty heavily, right, 863 00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:38,200 Speaker 4: You kind of have to think this one through. Which 864 00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:40,279 Speaker 4: way is that going to go? But I thought he 865 00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 4: would he would be well done the list, but he 866 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,719 Speaker 4: would he would gain momentum. Now like all of that's 867 00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:48,000 Speaker 4: gone and we put it off for another five years 868 00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:51,040 Speaker 4: and don't even think about it for five years, which 869 00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:54,799 Speaker 4: I don't. Really doesn't really bother me that way either, 870 00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:59,240 Speaker 4: because there's plent me a good good guys to select, 871 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:03,000 Speaker 4: you know, it's and they're not just very good, but 872 00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:06,759 Speaker 4: they're fall of famers. Just to make sure we understand that. 873 00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:12,520 Speaker 4: And so anyways. 874 00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:14,880 Speaker 7: I mean, he's close, but under. 875 00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:17,600 Speaker 4: The current math rules, which I don't think are going 876 00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:21,319 Speaker 4: to last much longer. But that's my guess. I think 877 00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:24,719 Speaker 4: it's gonna it would take a while. You know, he's 878 00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:26,200 Speaker 4: the kind of guy who's probably going to have to 879 00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:29,160 Speaker 4: wait a minimum of three to four years. And that's 880 00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:32,239 Speaker 4: even if they reinstate the old gold pattern. I think 881 00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:34,840 Speaker 4: even into those rules, he'd probably have to wait a 882 00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:35,400 Speaker 4: little while. 883 00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:38,960 Speaker 2: See. I like the addition in the Twitter verse of 884 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:44,760 Speaker 2: Kurt Banker, former quarterback for the Packers and Journeyman. He goes, hey, 885 00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:47,840 Speaker 2: if he gets activated, it helps reset his health benefits 886 00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:48,239 Speaker 2: for a bit. 887 00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:51,560 Speaker 4: That's important. 888 00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 7: That's an important equation too. 889 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:55,080 Speaker 2: Especially when when you got a bunch of kids and 890 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:57,640 Speaker 2: you know, grandkids and everybody that's you know, you got 891 00:42:57,719 --> 00:42:58,480 Speaker 2: to look after. 892 00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:01,680 Speaker 7: What does he have for five kids or something like that. 893 00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:05,400 Speaker 4: You know, I'll take you. But yeah, yeah, that's for 894 00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:09,399 Speaker 4: a woman, a lot of kids, she's been working hard. 895 00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:10,799 Speaker 4: I got to give her a lot of cred. She 896 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:13,759 Speaker 4: deserts me in the Hall of Fame, Well he gets 897 00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:14,200 Speaker 4: to go there. 898 00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:16,480 Speaker 1: He gets to go play football for a few weeks 899 00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:18,200 Speaker 1: while she's got all the kids at all, because they. 900 00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:19,680 Speaker 2: Do have a two year old or something at home, 901 00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:21,520 Speaker 2: don't they. I mean they don't. 902 00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:24,040 Speaker 4: I don't. I don't even know, like I've lost track 903 00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:26,840 Speaker 4: of it at this point in time, but like they've 904 00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:32,359 Speaker 4: got eleven twelve kids and their oldest is Broldly in 905 00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:36,160 Speaker 4: college he graduated. I don't know, it's a long time. 906 00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:39,080 Speaker 2: So yeah, he's a grandpa, all right, Ja Cole. Does 907 00:43:39,160 --> 00:43:42,280 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow hate football or does he just hate the Bengals? 908 00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:46,160 Speaker 4: What say? That?
