I mean, the Big ten West tie. 0:01:53.240 --> 0:01:55.120 The Big ten West will do that to you naturally, 0:01:55.200 --> 0:01:57.720 but it does things to a man's soul. 0:01:58.200 --> 0:01:58.600 By the way. 0:01:58.600 --> 0:02:00.840 I don't know if you remember when we did this, 0:02:00.880 --> 0:02:03.560 because I don't, but I found it in our little 0:02:03.560 --> 0:02:06.120 sound clips folder. When we talked about the Big Ten 0:02:06.160 --> 0:02:14.240 West a couple months ago, this was like Armantra. It's 0:02:14.320 --> 0:02:16.960 really like it's just hard metal. 0:02:16.960 --> 0:02:20.080 I don't know if you remember that, Yeah, I Jeff 0:02:20.160 --> 0:02:23.480 George Junior, Yeah, that's right, feeling it ow. 0:02:23.840 --> 0:02:25.920 So here we are.

That's true. 0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:22.280 We need to have that final cut with Dave Revsen, 0:03:22.320 --> 0:03:24.560 who is in state college, or at least was when 0:03:24.600 --> 0:03:27.040 I spoke to him, had not yet been to the creamery. 0:03:27.240 --> 0:03:30.680 Oh, this is bignesstacation, bignesst trip, this work trip. Yeah, 0:03:30.840 --> 0:03:33.520 before we actually start talking about the big tent, we 0:03:33.600 --> 0:03:36.680 got a lot of content, dreams of content to get 0:03:36.720 --> 0:03:39.960 through here. I need you to give folks your hardest 0:03:39.960 --> 0:03:41.840 of hard cells to try and get them to come 0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:42.600 to our live show. 0:03:43.320 --> 0:03:46.600 Oh great, call TI. First of all, we are paying 0:03:46.640 --> 0:03:48.840 for snacks. Yes, you can show up, and you can. 0:03:48.960 --> 0:03:51.480 I encourage you to order barbecue at Hill Country Barbecue 0:03:51.480 --> 0:03:54.280 this coming Saturday, August twelfth, between five and seven pm, 0:03:54.400 --> 0:03:56.480 and the big downstairs it's about twice the size of 0:03:56.520 --> 0:03:58.760 our first live show in New York. There will be 0:03:58.800 --> 0:04:04.040 barbecue available for perch, but wings, Freedo, pie chips, and qso. 0:04:04.840 --> 0:04:07.840 I got like six tubs of cans of beer. So, 0:04:08.560 --> 0:04:11.080 first of all, that's the cell right off the top. 0:04:11.400 --> 0:04:14.600 Second of all, we're doing our fantasy things draft. Third 0:04:14.600 --> 0:04:16.839 of all, all sorts of good fun people there. Fourth 0:04:16.920 --> 0:04:19.120 of all, Tie has agreed to hug anybody who wants 0:04:19.160 --> 0:04:22.520 a hug, record the outgoing voicemail for anybody who wants that, 0:04:23.040 --> 0:04:25.680 and in general, just hang out with good folks and me. 0:04:26.120 --> 0:04:28.640 So what's a better way to and you can still 0:04:28.680 --> 0:04:31.279 go out after this is like we are celebrating the 0:04:31.320 --> 0:04:34.200 West Coast college football experience where you get college football 0:04:34.200 --> 0:04:36.240 content and then you can still have a fun nights 0:04:36.279 --> 0:04:36.920 right Saturday. 0:04:36.960 --> 0:04:39.679 That's right, it's an experience. It's not just a live show. 0:04:40.080 --> 0:04:42.600 This is absolutely truthful. I want to see everybody. Yeah, 0:04:42.600 --> 0:04:45.039 in the New York area come out Hill Country Barbecue. 0:04:45.080 --> 0:04:48.120 It's on twenty sixth Street between Broadway and Fifth Avenue. 0:04:48.960 --> 0:04:50.120 It's going to be a great time. 0:04:50.640 --> 0:04:53.440 This is our final push to get folks to buy 0:04:53.480 --> 0:04:56.000 the remaining tickets, the handful of remaining tickets that are 0:04:56.040 --> 0:04:58.480 out there. We've got a big crowd. It's gonna be fun. Yeah, 0:04:58.520 --> 0:05:01.360 there's already a big crowd coming. We're excited about that. 0:05:01.920 --> 0:05:04.440 But we want to make sure that every seat is 0:05:04.520 --> 0:05:08.360 filled and that everyone could partake in the excitement I 0:05:08.400 --> 0:05:12.520 can tell you peering behind the curtain here the list 0:05:12.640 --> 0:05:15.839 that Dan and I have only begun to compile, we 0:05:15.880 --> 0:05:19.680 should probably work faster. The list of fantasy things that 0:05:19.680 --> 0:05:22.840 we are going to be selecting from is shaping up 0:05:22.920 --> 0:05:25.600 like no other. I am very excited about some of these. 0:05:25.920 --> 0:05:28.000 I already know what my first pick is going to be, 0:05:28.120 --> 0:05:30.279 but I think to make things fair, we're gonna have 0:05:30.279 --> 0:05:33.000 to flip a coin in person to really give it 0:05:33.080 --> 0:05:35.560 that on edge feel that I think we're trying to 0:05:35.640 --> 0:05:39.080 drive for the live audience. But if you aren't able 0:05:39.120 --> 0:05:41.920 to make it, if you are in some other location, 0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:45.840 stay tuned to the Instagram feed because Taylor the intern tailor, 0:05:45.960 --> 0:05:49.080 he's not really an intern, more's our production assistant producer. 0:05:49.160 --> 0:05:51.000 Yeah that's right. He's going to be doing some stuff 0:05:51.000 --> 0:05:54.800 on the social feeds and you can pay attention through 0:05:54.880 --> 0:05:57.520 any of those if you're interested. We also will release 0:05:57.600 --> 0:06:00.200 that show at some point in time for those of 0:06:00.240 --> 0:06:02.200 you who are actually interested in hearing who we select. 0:06:02.240 --> 0:06:05.760 So final push going out to saliverbo dot com. Check 0:06:05.800 --> 0:06:09.640 the Twitter, the Facebook, the Instagram feeds. We have all 0:06:09.640 --> 0:06:12.280 the information there. Tickets are fifteen bucks, as we've said 0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:14.640 time and time again. We ain't getting rich off this. 0:06:14.760 --> 0:06:16.200 We're just looking to have a good time to talk 0:06:16.240 --> 0:06:18.760 some college football.

That's right, a panel with a yeah, 0:06:30.360 --> 0:06:32.680 and some college football friends from New York are threatening 0:06:32.720 --> 0:06:35.360 to come by, so any of those people they might 0:06:35.400 --> 0:06:38.599 be fun to meet too. So have you ever seen 0:06:38.680 --> 0:06:39.800 Ralph Russo in person? 0:06:40.080 --> 0:06:40.279 Nope? 0:06:40.440 --> 0:06:42.120 What he looks like on Twitter? Nope? 0:06:42.360 --> 0:06:45.120 He is six' five and. Samoan that's. Right not a 0:06:45.120 --> 0:06:47.680 lot of people know. That so we're gonna have a great. 0:06:47.680 --> 0:06:48.440 Time we want to see. 0:06:48.440 --> 0:06:52.440 You on that, note shall we get into the big? 0:06:52.480 --> 0:07:03.400 TEN i think we. Shall, yeah all, right that is? 0:07:03.520 --> 0:07:06.600 Loud holy? Crap yeah, no that really hurt a little. 0:07:06.640 --> 0:07:08.719 Bit where shall we start in The big? 0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:08.880 Ten? 0:07:09.000 --> 0:07:10.520 Dan, OKAY i want to start with. 0:07:10.560 --> 0:07:12.480 THIS i want to ask a big picture question of 0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:14.600 you before we dive, in BECAUSE i think this is 0:07:14.600 --> 0:07:19.080 sort of a bit overarching the identity of the. Conference 0:07:19.200 --> 0:07:23.040 is it fair to attribute one singular identity to a. 0:07:23.120 --> 0:07:28.440 Conference is there a specific notion about the twenty seventeen conference. 0:07:28.080 --> 0:07:30.720 That you feel like is? Applicable is? There you, know? 0:07:30.760 --> 0:07:33.280 What what do you immediately think of WHEN i, mean 0:07:33.280 --> 0:07:36.200 it's hard when there are what fourteen? Teams but is 0:07:36.560 --> 0:07:38.760 what is the general feeling you get for this? 0:07:38.880 --> 0:07:43.760 Conference? Uh? AM i allowed. Too. Sure, absolutely the top 0:07:44.200 --> 0:07:49.120 is decidedly better than the, bottom all. Right there is 0:07:49.160 --> 0:07:54.200 a very clear distinction Between tier one and two And 0:07:54.280 --> 0:07:56.880 tier three and. Four it's a pretty, big pretty big 0:07:56.920 --> 0:08:00.120 chasm between one and two and three and. Four and 0:08:00.160 --> 0:08:03.320 we'll get into who's in what, Group but that to 0:08:03.400 --> 0:08:06.840 me jumps. Out the second though is that there are 0:08:06.840 --> 0:08:10.040 a lot of teams in here THAT i could really 0:08:10.080 --> 0:08:12.800 go either way. ON i don't have a definitive opinion 0:08:12.880 --> 0:08:17.040 about which way their season is going to, head specifically 0:08:17.080 --> 0:08:19.200 in The Big Ten. West WHEN i look at The 0:08:19.200 --> 0:08:21.360 Big Ten west AND i look at the schedules of those, 0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:27.080 teams maybe for everyone Outside, WISCONSIN i could really truly, say, 0:08:27.120 --> 0:08:28.960 yeah that team could go four and, eight or yeah 0:08:29.000 --> 0:08:31.240 that team could go eight and. Four there's really a 0:08:31.280 --> 0:08:34.880 lot of variability there AS i see. It SO i 0:08:34.920 --> 0:08:38.480 am particularly interested in which direction that side of the conference. 0:08:38.520 --> 0:08:40.679 Heads the thing THAT i kept coming back to WHEN 0:08:40.679 --> 0:08:44.000 i was looking at the various teams, strengths, weaknesses personnel. 0:08:44.240 --> 0:08:48.240 SCHEDULES i would look at a schedule and, Say, okay 0:08:47.800 --> 0:08:52.760 this team has this very definitive. Weakness let's look at their. 0:08:52.800 --> 0:08:55.439 Schedule let's see who can take. Advantage let's see who 0:08:55.480 --> 0:08:58.080 Has let's see the roster of quarterbacks or something that 0:08:58.120 --> 0:09:02.640 this team. Faces AND i look at it AND i, say, yeah, hmm, yeah, 0:09:02.920 --> 0:09:10.480 okay uh. Nah maybe that across every single, team whether 0:09:10.520 --> 0:09:12.880 it's the good teams or bad teams. Whatever it was 0:09:13.559 --> 0:09:15.400 sort of disheartened to be, like all, right is it 0:09:15.440 --> 0:09:19.520 gonna Be? Minnesota is it gonna Be? Nebraska like which 0:09:19.559 --> 0:09:23.120 of these quarterbacks jumps out to? Me and other Than 0:09:23.200 --> 0:09:29.000 trace McSorley and PROBABLY. Jt, barrett there aren't really. JUMPERS 0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:32.959 i don't fear too many big ten quarterbacks at this, 0:09:33.120 --> 0:09:37.400 moment so that to me makes it probably more interesting 0:09:37.480 --> 0:09:39.800 and more toss up, y but at the same time 0:09:40.080 --> 0:09:40.440 a little. 0:09:40.480 --> 0:09:44.760 Disheartening, YEAH i think we'd both agree That Ohio state 0:09:44.800 --> 0:09:48.679 is probably the top. Dog mm, hmm fair to, say oh, 0:09:48.800 --> 0:09:50.880 YEAH i mean the fact that they return what they 0:09:50.920 --> 0:09:54.800 return at quarterback and along the front, seven which is basically. 0:09:54.840 --> 0:09:56.800 Everybody and we can start With Ohio state if you'd. 0:09:56.880 --> 0:09:59.720 Like, yeah and they have the coaching staff that they, 0:09:59.800 --> 0:10:02.000 do and they have the new coaches that they do 0:10:02.160 --> 0:10:04.640 to sort of address. CONCERNS i, mean the fact That 0:10:04.679 --> 0:10:08.160 Greg ciano is still there and still having the capability 0:10:08.200 --> 0:10:11.800 to unleash just a ridiculous level of talent upon the 0:10:11.840 --> 0:10:14.600 world is not at all, fair but sort of the 0:10:14.600 --> 0:10:17.760 best in college football. Terms it's hard to pick against 0:10:17.800 --> 0:10:22.840 them when they've replaced secondary guys recently really really well. 0:10:23.440 --> 0:10:26.120 OFFENSIVELY i know everybody wants. J. T bhart to take 0:10:26.120 --> 0:10:29.040 a step With Kevin, wilson AND i sincerely hope he, 0:10:29.080 --> 0:10:32.480 does especially down the. Field there's not much to say 0:10:32.520 --> 0:10:35.679 About Ohio state other than, yes there are new, pieces 0:10:35.720 --> 0:10:38.520 but their new pieces are better than pretty much everybody's 0:10:38.559 --> 0:10:39.800 old pieces on. 0:10:39.920 --> 0:10:43.520 Paper there are only three losable games For Ohio. State. 0:10:43.960 --> 0:10:48.640 Yeah those Are oklahoma in Early, September Penn state In 0:10:48.679 --> 0:10:52.520 columbus by the, way In, Columbus, Yeah Penn State halloween 0:10:52.559 --> 0:10:55.040 weekend after a bye. Week that game is also In, 0:10:55.080 --> 0:10:59.240 columbus and, then of course the game Against, michigan which 0:10:59.320 --> 0:11:03.360 is like They thanksgiving Weekend november twenty, fifth that game 0:11:03.440 --> 0:11:07.400 is in the Big. House those are the only. Three 0:11:07.559 --> 0:11:10.120 those might be the only three games all season Where 0:11:10.120 --> 0:11:13.240 Ohio state isn't a double digit. Favorite and guess, what 0:11:13.640 --> 0:11:16.880 they ain't losing all. Three no chance of that. Happening 0:11:17.000 --> 0:11:20.600 so could they lose to someone? Else, okay, sure but 0:11:20.640 --> 0:11:22.959 they'd really have to come out and sleep walk Against 0:11:23.040 --> 0:11:26.719 iowa Or. BRAT i don't, Know i'm stretching. Here my 0:11:26.840 --> 0:11:30.640 point is THAT i don't see any way possible this 0:11:30.720 --> 0:11:33.200 isn't at least a ten or eleven win team this. 0:11:33.280 --> 0:11:34.520 YEAR i think that's totally. 0:11:34.559 --> 0:11:36.640 Reasonable the other game THAT i have, circled and this 0:11:36.679 --> 0:11:38.360 is a huge toss, up is the fact that they 0:11:38.400 --> 0:11:41.640 go To. Kinnick they go To iowa the week After Penn, 0:11:41.679 --> 0:11:44.800 state so potential, letdown body, blow whatever the case may. 0:11:44.840 --> 0:11:48.400 Be that's a tough, spot especially If iowa figures things 0:11:48.400 --> 0:11:52.600 out offensively by. Then so that's really the only of 0:11:52.640 --> 0:11:56.040 the non elite elite THAT i could see being a 0:11:56.080 --> 0:11:56.480 trip up. 0:11:56.480 --> 0:11:59.240 Moment the two questions THAT i have About Ohio, state 0:11:59.480 --> 0:12:03.040 and again we're really splitting. Hairshare you mentioned about the 0:12:03.080 --> 0:12:06.240 passing game And Kevin wilson can he remedy that passing 0:12:06.280 --> 0:12:09.320 game because it was very underwhelming a year. Ago he 0:12:09.440 --> 0:12:12.160 is a new offensive. Coordinator he comes over From. Indiana 0:12:12.320 --> 0:12:16.079 he resigned From indiana due to some Controversy Ohio state 0:12:16.120 --> 0:12:18.880 NOW i think gets the benefit of the doubt to 0:12:18.960 --> 0:12:22.480 some degree because It's Kevin, wilson because It's Urban meyer 0:12:23.040 --> 0:12:25.880 and they've had such remarkable consistency over the last five 0:12:25.960 --> 0:12:28.880 years or. So part of, me, though wonders how fixable it. 0:12:28.920 --> 0:12:31.840 Is is it A J. T barrett? Thing is it 0:12:31.880 --> 0:12:36.080 a scheme thing That Kevin wilson can tweak and make? 0:12:36.200 --> 0:12:39.000 Better J. T barrett's always been noted more for his 0:12:39.080 --> 0:12:42.760 running than his. Passing what is the ceiling for him 0:12:42.800 --> 0:12:46.040 as a? Passer and, oh by the, way he Loses Dontre, 0:12:46.160 --> 0:12:49.200 Wilson Noah, Brown Curtis Samuel, right someone else is going 0:12:49.240 --> 0:12:51.600 to step up in. Time but it's clearly something to. 0:12:51.679 --> 0:12:54.559 Watch the other Thing i'd say is a pass. Defense, 0:12:55.400 --> 0:12:58.360 thankfully if you're in the big, ten it's not like 0:12:58.440 --> 0:13:00.640 the pass defense is something that you're gonna have to 0:13:00.640 --> 0:13:04.480 WORRY i think too much about to your earlier, point how, 0:13:04.480 --> 0:13:08.800 many how many quarterbacks really frighten. You, yeah but it's 0:13:08.840 --> 0:13:11.240 worth noting that you Lose Mollie, cooker you Lose Marshaun, 0:13:11.320 --> 0:13:14.520 latimore you Lose gary And. Conley they took a mini 0:13:14.559 --> 0:13:17.120 step backwards a year. Ago can they take a little 0:13:17.120 --> 0:13:19.199 bit of a step. Forward they're going to be tested 0:13:19.240 --> 0:13:22.320 Against oklahoma second week of the. Year it's a mini 0:13:22.360 --> 0:13:24.199 matchup to. Watch we k Knowe oklahoma's going to air it. 0:13:24.240 --> 0:13:26.880 Out so long story, short what happens with their with 0:13:26.920 --> 0:13:30.320 their passing. DEFENSE i won't harp too much On Ohio, 0:13:30.360 --> 0:13:33.040 state but just a ton back With barrett And Mike 0:13:33.080 --> 0:13:36.120 weber and the offensive line and the front seven being virtually, 0:13:36.160 --> 0:13:39.640 Intact i'm pretty excited About Ohio. STATE i don't see 0:13:39.640 --> 0:13:41.400 how they don't get to ten wins at a. 0:13:41.400 --> 0:13:47.160 Minimum you know what helps a greenish pass defense secondary 0:13:47.920 --> 0:13:50.840 about thirty five blue chip world destroyers up. 0:13:50.840 --> 0:13:54.840 Front that makes it. Easier who is your next best 0:13:55.120 --> 0:13:55.760 team in The Big? 0:13:55.800 --> 0:14:02.920 Ten at this, point it's still Probably michigan by a. Hair, 0:14:03.200 --> 0:14:06.760 Really Penn state wins the conference last. Year you, know 0:14:06.760 --> 0:14:08.960 they lose a couple key pieces on, defense but virtually 0:14:09.000 --> 0:14:09.880 the whole offense is. 0:14:09.960 --> 0:14:12.760 Back But michigan. 0:14:12.960 --> 0:14:15.880 Destroyed Penn state last, year a Wounded Penn state by 0:14:15.880 --> 0:14:20.520 what thirty or forty? Points AND i still feel as 0:14:20.560 --> 0:14:26.280 If michigan's, defense with secondary losses but so much talent up, 0:14:26.320 --> 0:14:30.480 front maybe in a better place Than Penn state's offense 0:14:30.520 --> 0:14:33.880 at the, moment which is to, Say, Wow michigan's defense 0:14:34.080 --> 0:14:37.720 is excellent And Penn state's offense is, excellent and it 0:14:37.880 --> 0:14:39.600 just sort of feels like a toss up to Make 0:14:39.680 --> 0:14:42.960 joe moorehead Versus Don, brown and you know the sort 0:14:42.960 --> 0:14:46.440 of huge pieces that they both. Assembled So trace McSorley 0:14:46.480 --> 0:14:50.440 struggled against This michigan defense last. Year, yes, yeah, okay 0:14:50.640 --> 0:14:53.720 so to me that's that was also slight edge that 0:14:53.840 --> 0:14:56.200 was Before Penn state got. Rolling are you Putting michigan 0:14:56.320 --> 0:14:59.560 this high in The Big ten because you're now married 0:14:59.600 --> 0:15:02.200 To jody with An eye From, Michigan jody with AND 0:15:02.280 --> 0:15:04.160 i will not be listening to this, show AND i 0:15:04.200 --> 0:15:06.680 don't imagine too many people who know her will, Be so, 0:15:06.880 --> 0:15:09.440 NO i am just wondering if there's an influence there 0:15:09.520 --> 0:15:12.840 that the games In State, college which MEANS i might 0:15:13.000 --> 0:15:15.120 still Pick Penn state to win that, game but as 0:15:15.520 --> 0:15:20.000 it stands right. Now IF i were to Evaluate Jim 0:15:20.040 --> 0:15:24.000 harbaugh Versus James franklin as a guy getting heading into the, 0:15:24.040 --> 0:15:26.560 season who DO i trust more to win ten? Games 0:15:27.600 --> 0:15:30.480 it probably is Still harbaugh and his. STAFF i Trust 0:15:30.480 --> 0:15:32.920 harbaugh more THAN i Trust. Franklin but there's a lot of. 0:15:32.920 --> 0:15:36.640 Turnover it's not a reboot At. Michigan it's absolutely a rebuilding. 0:15:36.680 --> 0:15:40.280 Year here's What bill connolly said. Quote The wolverines must 0:15:40.280 --> 0:15:43.880 replace their leading, rusher four of their top five, receivers 0:15:44.440 --> 0:15:49.720 Three all conference offensive, linemen their top three defensive, linemen 0:15:49.760 --> 0:15:53.160 their best, linebacker and their top five defensive, backs including 0:15:53.280 --> 0:15:55.560 nickelback And heisman Finalist Bill. 0:15:55.560 --> 0:16:00.040 Peppers that is, Significant, Dan so to put them the 0:16:00.080 --> 0:16:03.000 second in The Big ten is kind of a leap of. 0:16:03.040 --> 0:16:06.000 Faith as far As i'm, Concerned harbaugh is one of 0:16:06.000 --> 0:16:08.480 the best in the. Game he's been really, good especially 0:16:08.480 --> 0:16:11.240 good when he doesn't have a ton of experience to work. 0:16:11.280 --> 0:16:14.040 With he's kind of a savant with the x's and, 0:16:14.080 --> 0:16:17.440 o's but he's proven pretty much at every stop he's 0:16:17.440 --> 0:16:19.080 been that he's. Goodly he doesn't have a ton of. 0:16:19.120 --> 0:16:22.760 Experience to, me, though too much, turnover too much, turnover 0:16:22.880 --> 0:16:25.840 to have confidence that they're going to contend for a. 0:16:25.880 --> 0:16:28.000 Title could they win ten? Games, YEAH i think. SO 0:16:28.960 --> 0:16:31.000 i think. SO i think the indicators are the passing 0:16:31.040 --> 0:16:34.440 game and the defense to tell us which way this 0:16:34.480 --> 0:16:38.160 whole thing is. Headed, sure SO i Like, michigan BUT 0:16:38.160 --> 0:16:41.600 i don't THINK i like them quite as much as you. 0:16:41.680 --> 0:16:46.280 Do so they've recruited very, well and to, me the 0:16:46.280 --> 0:16:48.880 coaching advantage makes a difference BECAUSE i think there are 0:16:48.880 --> 0:16:50.800 guys that can step in. IMMEDIATELY i know they bring 0:16:50.800 --> 0:16:53.920 in the number one receiver in the country recru, Wise 0:16:53.960 --> 0:16:58.480 Donovan Peebles. Jones so the coverard is not. Bear they 0:16:58.560 --> 0:17:00.920 still Have Rashan, gary who IS i believe a true. 0:17:00.920 --> 0:17:02.760 Sophomore he was a number of recruit in the country last. 0:17:02.800 --> 0:17:05.320 Year he'll be anchoring The michigan defense up front and 0:17:05.359 --> 0:17:09.640 gives them a ton of. Versatility and again you, Say, 0:17:09.640 --> 0:17:11.000 okay well they have a lot to replace in the. 0:17:11.000 --> 0:17:15.120 Secondary who's taking advantage of green corners and? Safeties which 0:17:15.160 --> 0:17:18.800 quarterback exactly other Than trace McSorley for sure at this. 0:17:18.960 --> 0:17:23.040 Moment, YEAH i don't. Know, okay did they Beat florida 0:17:23.720 --> 0:17:25.240 first week of the. YEAR i think. 0:17:25.280 --> 0:17:28.320 So, Yeah, YEAH i think SO i think that there's 0:17:28.320 --> 0:17:31.480 more continuity With michigan at this, point AND i THINK 0:17:31.480 --> 0:17:34.399 i Trust harbaugh and that staff with time to prepare 0:17:34.400 --> 0:17:37.200 an entire summer rather Than jim mckawain at this point 0:17:37.359 --> 0:17:39.239 when so much is up in the air with What 0:17:39.280 --> 0:17:40.119 florida's going to look like. 0:17:40.160 --> 0:17:42.720 Offensively, YEAH i think. SO i Think michigan is in 0:17:42.760 --> 0:17:45.800 that second. Tier definitely in the second. TIER i don't 0:17:45.840 --> 0:17:48.240 know IF i put them next up in the second. 0:17:48.240 --> 0:17:52.359 TIER i am inclined to Say wisconsin as my next 0:17:52.400 --> 0:17:57.480 best team Behind Ohio. State. Wow, okay now you might 0:17:57.520 --> 0:17:59.600 not be horny For hornybrook like we all were last. 0:17:59.680 --> 0:18:02.880 Year is this A wisconsin thing based on you Think 0:18:02.880 --> 0:18:06.120 wisconsin is the second most complete team or because they 0:18:06.160 --> 0:18:08.760 have the clear best schedule in the. Conference they have 0:18:08.840 --> 0:18:12.160 the clear best schedule in the. Conference we should play 0:18:12.160 --> 0:18:16.080 this to talk about you, know let's give credit where 0:18:16.080 --> 0:18:20.080 it's due here we're talking About wisconsin. Schedule we can 0:18:20.119 --> 0:18:22.480 play that again when we get To. Minnesota but For, 0:18:22.560 --> 0:18:28.040 wisconsin for, sure it definitely comes into. PLAY i am 0:18:28.040 --> 0:18:32.560 skittish about Losing Corey clement in the, backfield Finn it 0:18:32.640 --> 0:18:38.600 hurts to Lose Ryan ramsig as your left. TACKLE i get, 0:18:38.600 --> 0:18:44.920 it but the line is, enormous, Enormous AND i asked 0:18:44.920 --> 0:18:49.200 you this before a couple of days. Ago how many 0:18:49.240 --> 0:18:52.480 games Could wisconsin win if their line literally stood there, 0:18:53.960 --> 0:18:58.000 passively passively after the ball is. Snapped how many games 0:18:58.080 --> 0:19:01.320 could they win with their line not actively trying to 0:19:01.359 --> 0:19:04.959 block anybody just because they're so, enormous but still their 0:19:05.040 --> 0:19:06.760 defense is playing all out and still. 0:19:06.760 --> 0:19:10.600 Everything oh, yeahah just the, line the line stands, there 0:19:10.960 --> 0:19:13.520 they stand up and maybe hold their arms. Out they 0:19:13.520 --> 0:19:16.480 can go four and. EIGHT i think so, too four and, 0:19:16.560 --> 0:19:20.400 eight five and. Seven, WOW i think that's a lot 0:19:20.720 --> 0:19:22.720 three and, nine four and eight for. ME i think 0:19:22.720 --> 0:19:26.560 they'll they probably lose every, game but it's it is a. 0:19:26.640 --> 0:19:29.840 Question we know what they want to. Do what they 0:19:29.840 --> 0:19:32.720 want to do is run the football. Wherever they have 0:19:32.840 --> 0:19:35.879 to set up a few play action. Passes but we 0:19:35.960 --> 0:19:37.119 know what they want to, do and we know they 0:19:37.160 --> 0:19:40.199 have a track record of doing it very. Successfully and 0:19:40.240 --> 0:19:42.800 so whether It's Braderick shaw Or Chris james the pit, 0:19:42.920 --> 0:19:47.600 TRANSFER i feel confident that they're going to figure out 0:19:47.640 --> 0:19:50.400 a way to get that backfield in. Order they've got 0:19:50.400 --> 0:19:52.920 that part down to a. Science the passing game was 0:19:52.960 --> 0:19:55.359 bad a year, ago it's been bad for a while. 0:19:55.400 --> 0:19:57.640 Now but they do bring Back JAZZ pv And Troy 0:19:57.680 --> 0:20:01.760 fumagali Love, jazz Love. Troy So hornybrook's going to have 0:20:02.280 --> 0:20:04.720 some weapons to throw to that he's comfortable with. Already 0:20:04.840 --> 0:20:07.639 you got to hope he doesn't get. Hurt but provided he, 0:20:07.680 --> 0:20:10.199 doesn't provided that line can keep him up, right he 0:20:10.240 --> 0:20:14.600 will have some passing. Options, DEFENSIVELY i have no worries at. 0:20:14.640 --> 0:20:18.639 All the entire line is. Back the only guys that 0:20:18.760 --> 0:20:21.920 leave ARE. Tj watt And Vince. Biegel those are big deal. 0:20:22.240 --> 0:20:26.359 Departures they're big deal. Departures BUT i feel pretty confident 0:20:26.400 --> 0:20:29.720 that this defense is going to have itself in pretty 0:20:29.720 --> 0:20:32.600 good working order and play at a high level right 0:20:32.640 --> 0:20:34.720 out of the. Shoot they do have a first year 0:20:34.760 --> 0:20:39.440 defensive coordinator Because Justin wilcox left to go too super, 0:20:39.480 --> 0:20:44.520 Young Jim leonard super, young and you could definitely concoct 0:20:44.520 --> 0:20:47.040 the scenario in which the defense takes a step back 0:20:47.080 --> 0:20:49.760 because maybe he's not, ready he's not up for the. 0:20:49.800 --> 0:20:54.480 Billing BUT i just feel between their, schedule between their returning, 0:20:54.560 --> 0:20:57.240 Talent wisconsin should be in a good place where they 0:20:57.280 --> 0:21:00.520 have to be the eight hundred pound gorilla in The 0:21:00.520 --> 0:21:03.520 Big Ten. West and whenever you've got a defense in 0:21:03.520 --> 0:21:07.440 a running game that should be pretty, consistent that that 0:21:07.480 --> 0:21:09.560 takes you to a pretty good spot in The Big. 0:21:09.600 --> 0:21:12.800 Ten all, Right i'm gonna list off the games where 0:21:12.800 --> 0:21:16.240 they have at least an average opponent or a pretty 0:21:16.240 --> 0:21:18.680 good opponent on the. Road here we, Go okay At 0:21:18.720 --> 0:21:21.760 Nebraska october. Seventh that's the. List tie, there it. Is, 0:21:21.840 --> 0:21:25.399 yeah that's the whole dang. Thing they Have michigan And 0:21:25.440 --> 0:21:27.720 iowa both At Camp. Randall they don't Have Ohio, state 0:21:27.760 --> 0:21:29.920 they don't Have Penn state going TO byu in the 0:21:29.920 --> 0:21:32.480 preseason in the non conference part of the. Schedules, tricky but. 0:21:33.160 --> 0:21:37.960 Manageable it's a, beautiful beautiful, Thing. TYE i could. SEE 0:21:38.760 --> 0:21:39.680 i could see twelve. 0:21:39.480 --> 0:21:42.240 To zero on the. Schedule, WOW i could see ten and. 0:21:42.320 --> 0:21:44.920 TWO i can't see nine and three Unless Horny brooks 0:21:44.920 --> 0:21:50.280 snaps like a. Femur, yeah maybe the defense bottom's. Out 0:21:50.320 --> 0:21:52.440 do you see that as a likely. SCENARIO i don't. 0:21:53.240 --> 0:21:55.400 KNOW i think they go ten and. TWO i think 0:21:55.440 --> 0:21:58.920 they lose something stupid again To, michigan like a thirteen 0:21:58.920 --> 0:22:01.320 to ten. Game MAYBE byu game is a little bit 0:22:01.359 --> 0:22:04.680 strange on the road at, altitude but you, know At, 0:22:04.720 --> 0:22:07.600 Indiana indiana's going to have a pretty good defense this 0:22:07.680 --> 0:22:09.640 year if they are able to take advantage Of hornybrook 0:22:09.640 --> 0:22:12.600 a little bit and experienced, secondary maybe gets a little bit. 0:22:12.640 --> 0:22:16.360 Strange BUT i see them as squarely ten and. Two 0:22:17.280 --> 0:22:19.280 that's what feels most reasonable to. 0:22:19.359 --> 0:22:25.360 ME i Like wisconsin a lot this. Year, Okay i'm 0:22:25.400 --> 0:22:28.920 assuming that means next team up Is Penn. State, sure 0:22:29.320 --> 0:22:30.679 how do you feel About Penn state this? 0:22:30.760 --> 0:22:35.679 YEAR i really like Watching Penn state And i'm curious 0:22:36.200 --> 0:22:39.280 to see how they are when they're not the scrappy 0:22:39.520 --> 0:22:43.000 underdog who not scrappy, underdog it's Still Penn, state but 0:22:43.080 --> 0:22:46.320 the team that nobody saw coming in the way that they, 0:22:46.400 --> 0:22:49.640 came especially in the latter part of twenty, sixteen when 0:22:50.040 --> 0:22:52.000 they're able to throw it all Over, wisconsin throw it 0:22:52.000 --> 0:22:54.080 all OVER usc and one of the best games we've 0:22:54.119 --> 0:22:57.080 seen in recent. Years they took it To iowa in 0:22:57.119 --> 0:22:59.960 a ridiculous, way a really Good iowa, defense they just 0:23:00.080 --> 0:23:03.320 shred at. Them so the second half Of Penn state's 0:23:03.320 --> 0:23:06.439 twenty sixteen is now a thing that people have to 0:23:06.520 --> 0:23:09.280 consider And Penn state now, has you, know a bulls 0:23:09.280 --> 0:23:11.280 eye on their. Back what are they going to look 0:23:11.359 --> 0:23:15.400 like as the hunted and not the? Hunters the mentality 0:23:15.440 --> 0:23:16.760 is going to be interesting for. ME i don't know 0:23:16.760 --> 0:23:19.479 if it's related at all to What Michigan state went 0:23:19.520 --> 0:23:22.560 through mentally last, year where everybody sort of discounted you 0:23:22.840 --> 0:23:24.640 and you kept proving them. Wrong you kept proving them. 0:23:24.640 --> 0:23:28.440 Wrong what do you do now that you have everything 0:23:28.520 --> 0:23:31.479 in the world? Offensively you, KNOW i think everybody returns 0:23:31.480 --> 0:23:32.920 but one offensive lineman and one. 0:23:33.160 --> 0:23:34.080 Receiver is that? 0:23:34.200 --> 0:23:34.400 Right? 0:23:35.040 --> 0:23:37.880 YEAH i mean Because Dashawn hamilton's, back A sickie's. Back, 0:23:38.000 --> 0:23:40.639 yeah there's a ton of talent. There Saquon barkley is 0:23:41.520 --> 0:23:44.600 might be the most complete back in the. Country so 0:23:45.280 --> 0:23:49.040 there's no reason That Penn state shouldn't be excellent. Offensively 0:23:49.160 --> 0:23:51.240 and that's a different mentality to. Have what do you 0:23:51.280 --> 0:23:51.840 think last? 0:23:51.920 --> 0:23:54.480 YEAR i gotta go back to last year for a. 0:23:54.520 --> 0:23:58.040 Second talk about a revelation For Penn. State you'd have 0:23:58.080 --> 0:24:00.919 to go back to nineteen ninety four to find A 0:24:00.960 --> 0:24:04.359 Penn state team that was that exciting to. Watch AND 0:24:04.440 --> 0:24:06.880 i would argue that last year was more fun because, 0:24:06.920 --> 0:24:10.560 again they got throttled By, michigan as you, referenced but 0:24:10.600 --> 0:24:13.800 then they came on like a freight. Train got healthier, Too, 0:24:13.880 --> 0:24:17.800 yeah got healthier in, spots but came on like a freight, 0:24:17.800 --> 0:24:20.879 train starting using started using their pieces a little bit 0:24:20.880 --> 0:24:24.200 differently on. Offense won The big, ten damn, near won 0:24:25.240 --> 0:24:28.760 enough to get themselves into the, playoff and then just 0:24:28.880 --> 0:24:32.200 fell short OF usc and The Rose, bowl which didn't 0:24:32.200 --> 0:24:35.560 do anything to diminish their their. Standing they definitely earned 0:24:36.280 --> 0:24:39.240 some more credibility for that fifty two to forty nine 0:24:39.280 --> 0:24:41.280 whatever it was game in The Rose bowl to. Shootout 0:24:42.119 --> 0:24:45.440 my main issue was with, McSorley and it wasn't a real. 0:24:45.480 --> 0:24:47.960 ISSUE i just didn't believe in. Him my part of 0:24:48.000 --> 0:24:50.680 me still feels LIKE i can't, Deprogram like he was 0:24:50.720 --> 0:24:53.840 a flash in the, pan pop gun arm. RIGHT i 0:24:53.960 --> 0:24:57.640 used all the old, heads but there isn't much evidence 0:24:57.640 --> 0:25:01.000 to back that. Up And i'm might not be comfortable 0:25:01.040 --> 0:25:04.160 with his, style But James franklin And joe moorehead are 0:25:04.640 --> 0:25:06.199 and the proofs in the. Pudding as far as that, 0:25:06.240 --> 0:25:09.880 goes he was unbelievable down the stretch through a great deep. 0:25:09.920 --> 0:25:13.280 Ball by the, way we need to add this and 0:25:13.320 --> 0:25:15.520 they wouldn't add it on their, own but our friends 0:25:15.520 --> 0:25:18.280 over At Roar Lions roar The Great Penn state bla 0:25:18.440 --> 0:25:20.520 New Penn state blog out. There check them out if 0:25:20.520 --> 0:25:24.800 you haven't. Already they have been workshopping A t shirt 0:25:24.880 --> 0:25:29.080 idea okay and the butt one that somebody did years. 0:25:29.119 --> 0:25:31.200 Ago no, no no no no no no, no, okay they've 0:25:31.200 --> 0:25:32.399 been work shopping deep. 0:25:32.400 --> 0:25:32.720 State. 0:25:33.440 --> 0:25:36.199 OH i love that Deep state as a thing that 0:25:36.240 --> 0:25:39.160 could go ON t. SHIRTS i feel like they are 0:25:39.200 --> 0:25:41.800 afraid to use it because there is some political connotation 0:25:41.880 --> 0:25:44.560 there that we won't get into on the solid art 0:25:45.359 --> 0:25:48.000 that's not really our cupo. TEA i would hope that 0:25:48.000 --> 0:25:50.600 people are mature enough to realize this is a pretty 0:25:50.600 --> 0:25:55.280 funny thing and absolutely Deep state applies To Penn state this, 0:25:55.400 --> 0:25:58.360 year and it did last. Year it will even more 0:25:58.359 --> 0:26:00.159 so this. Year with trace. McSorley that is, very very 0:26:00.600 --> 0:26:04.800 very much their. MANTRA i hope they decided to run. 0:26:04.840 --> 0:26:06.919 IT i don't know how they feel about it editorially. 0:26:07.000 --> 0:26:10.679 Speaking but beyond, that defense did get better as the 0:26:10.680 --> 0:26:13.399 season we're on last. YEAR a big part of, that, 0:26:13.440 --> 0:26:18.520 though Was Brandon bell getting healthy and stabilizing the lineback and. 0:26:18.560 --> 0:26:22.040 Corps he has gone this. Year he has gone this. 0:26:22.160 --> 0:26:25.760 Year my questions are on the offensive. Line we've had 0:26:25.840 --> 0:26:28.400 questions about the line for the last five. Years skill 0:26:28.480 --> 0:26:30.840 positions are, Fine they got enough skill talent now to 0:26:31.080 --> 0:26:34.320 sustain them for a. While but the offense needs a 0:26:34.359 --> 0:26:36.520 consistent line that can stay on the field and make a. 0:26:36.520 --> 0:26:39.560 Difference that is the biggest missing piece of this. Offense 0:26:39.600 --> 0:26:43.000 and hopefully Matt Lin, grover who came over From minnesota year, 0:26:43.040 --> 0:26:45.400 ago can continue Working magic did a good job last. 0:26:45.440 --> 0:26:48.720 Year the line needs to continue to. PROGRESS i got 0:26:48.800 --> 0:26:52.440 questions about depth all throughout the, team specifically on. Defense 0:26:52.480 --> 0:26:55.240 just a lot of unproven, commodities, secondaries beat up and 0:26:55.440 --> 0:26:55.960 replacing a. 0:26:55.960 --> 0:27:02.040 Lot, YEAH i feel ten and two Losses Ohio state 0:27:02.080 --> 0:27:05.880 on the, Road, yeah and they're gonna start a winning 0:27:05.880 --> 0:27:07.200 streak Against pitt and. 0:27:07.160 --> 0:27:10.600 Then a dumb. One oh, okay a dumb one maybe At, 0:27:10.640 --> 0:27:16.159 iowa maybe At. NORTHWESTERN i don't. Know i'm saying ten and, 0:27:16.200 --> 0:27:20.560 two a weird loss and a totally predictable loss To Ohio. 0:27:20.560 --> 0:27:22.720 State i'm gonna go with ten and two as. Well, 0:27:23.600 --> 0:27:26.359 again it's MOSTLY i, mean are we gonna count On 0:27:26.400 --> 0:27:30.359 Brian lawerke At Michigan state to take advantage, of you, 0:27:30.359 --> 0:27:32.600 know a couple holes in the, secondary Which Penn state also. 0:27:32.600 --> 0:27:33.080 Has Marcus. 0:27:33.080 --> 0:27:35.680 Allen, right he's like an all big ten sure caliber. 0:27:35.720 --> 0:27:41.640 Safety there are not enough quarterbacks in this conference to 0:27:41.680 --> 0:27:43.679 have me believe In Penn state is anything less than 0:27:43.720 --> 0:27:46.040 a ten and two, team which is. Crazy And trace 0:27:46.160 --> 0:27:47.960 McSorley amazing ten and. 0:27:48.000 --> 0:27:51.800 Two he's a good fit for the.

Junior those are big. 0:34:07.760 --> 0:34:11.080 Losses mind oh, YEAH a few other say the name 0:34:11.080 --> 0:34:13.000 THAT i know you're going to struggle pronouncing. 0:34:12.760 --> 0:34:18.080 No, no don't make. Me, oh it was so, GOOD i. 0:34:18.200 --> 0:34:22.120 AM i am very excited About Justin, Jackson Clayton thorson 0:34:22.960 --> 0:34:25.440 and what this team could. Do the good news is 0:34:25.440 --> 0:34:28.399 that they missed Both Ohio state And. Michigan they Get 0:34:28.440 --> 0:34:31.200 Penn state at, home WHICH i mentioned a few minutes. 0:34:31.200 --> 0:34:34.359 Ago could totally see them taking Out Penn state at. 0:34:34.360 --> 0:34:38.120 Home they're At wisconsin At nebraska later in the. Year 0:34:39.280 --> 0:34:42.520 otherwise not What i'd consider a difficult. Schedule it's tricky in, 0:34:42.560 --> 0:34:46.239 spots BUT i would rather play In minnesota early than, late, 0:34:46.800 --> 0:34:49.839 right you, know that could factor. In i'd rather Play 0:34:49.920 --> 0:34:52.719 nebraska early than. Late that could factor in as, Well 0:34:52.840 --> 0:34:56.080 pluster on the road. Late i'd rather Play maryland early 0:34:56.160 --> 0:34:58.680 Than week. Eight but by and, LARGE i think it's 0:34:58.680 --> 0:35:00.520 a very workable schedule for ai team that has a 0:35:00.560 --> 0:35:03.560 lot of veteran. Leadership the name you were looking for 0:35:03.640 --> 0:35:05.839 is IF i ate A odenigbo thank, you who had 0:35:05.880 --> 0:35:07.600 ten sacks last year and was really good and is 0:35:07.600 --> 0:35:07.960 not back. 0:35:08.000 --> 0:35:11.560 Anymore, Yeah northwestern's in a really nice. Spot the question 0:35:11.640 --> 0:35:16.319 is can they avoid that slow start that keeps happening To. 0:35:16.360 --> 0:35:19.880 Northwestern you, know they are able to pick Off stanford 0:35:19.920 --> 0:35:23.160 a few years ago with body clock madness in a 0:35:23.200 --> 0:35:25.719 super ugly, game but it's a win Against, stanford but 0:35:25.719 --> 0:35:29.239 then they lose dumb games early. On Is northwestern gonna 0:35:29.239 --> 0:35:31.640 be able to start out and make? Noise you mentioned 0:35:31.640 --> 0:35:36.399 the offensive, skill certainly. There Pat fitzgerald, keeps he recruits well, 0:35:36.520 --> 0:35:40.919 Enough he's done a good enough. Job it's Avoiding september 0:35:40.960 --> 0:35:43.680 malaise to me For. Northwestern who do they have once 0:35:43.719 --> 0:35:46.080 again in the early part of the. 0:35:46.080 --> 0:35:51.040 Season northwestern opens With, nevada then they're At Duke Bowling, 0:35:51.080 --> 0:35:55.880 green then they go To. Wisconsin that's a big one To, 0:35:55.960 --> 0:35:58.839 wisconsin no. Reason last week Is september after a bye, 0:35:58.880 --> 0:36:03.319 week but still very difficult. Game After, wisconsin they come back. 0:36:03.360 --> 0:36:07.480 Home they Play Penn, state so fairly, EARLY i think 0:36:07.520 --> 0:36:11.359 we'll know How northwestern stacks up against The tier, one 0:36:11.480 --> 0:36:17.200 tier two caliber teams in The Big. Ten soft landing With, Perdue, Minnesota. 0:36:17.200 --> 0:36:22.080 Illinois, YEAH i Think northwestern's an eight and Fourteen i'm 0:36:22.080 --> 0:36:25.200 a little bit concerned about the, defense but, again this 0:36:25.320 --> 0:36:28.319 is going to be. Repetitive who's really going to take 0:36:28.360 --> 0:36:31.360 advantage on this schedule quarterback? Wise at the, moment it 0:36:31.400 --> 0:36:32.200 doesn't seem like a. 0:36:32.200 --> 0:36:33.120 Lot but we'll. 0:36:33.120 --> 0:36:35.320 See MAYBE i was going to develop a Guy Michigan 0:36:35.360 --> 0:36:39.600 State brian THE workI gets, better. Whatever but, yeah At, 0:36:39.640 --> 0:36:42.560 Wisconsin Penn, State iowa is going to be tricky just 0:36:42.600 --> 0:36:45.400 because they returned so much on defense going To nebraska 0:36:45.440 --> 0:36:47.680 and by that point we might all be fawning Over 0:36:47.719 --> 0:36:51.040 tannerly and we'll all Be nebraska fans at that. Point but, 0:36:52.040 --> 0:36:54.920 yeah eight and, four nine and three seems about right 0:36:54.960 --> 0:36:56.399 to me BECAUSE i don't think they're going to lose 0:36:56.400 --> 0:36:59.120 something dumb This northwestern team this year like they've done 0:36:59.160 --> 0:37:01.239 in the. PAST i think this team is in good 0:37:01.239 --> 0:37:02.719 shape with how much they return on both. 0:37:02.760 --> 0:37:06.600 Sides we Mentioned. Iowa as everyone knows by, now this 0:37:06.680 --> 0:37:10.760 is going to Be Kirk farrence's nineteenth year At. Iowa 0:37:10.920 --> 0:37:13.960 he is working his way through what one hundred and 0:37:13.960 --> 0:37:18.719 forty year contract. Extensions, sure here's What Bill connelly had 0:37:18.760 --> 0:37:23.200 to say About. Iowa, quote The hawkeyes must replace their 0:37:23.400 --> 0:37:27.120 starting quarterback a two hundred carry running, back three of 0:37:27.160 --> 0:37:31.360 their top four receiving, targets and all conference left, tackle 0:37:31.520 --> 0:37:36.640 both starting defensive tackles and both starting. Quarterbacks not. Ideal 0:37:36.920 --> 0:37:39.440 what is good is, This he has a line this 0:37:39.520 --> 0:37:43.000 year which should be pretty. Good he Has Akram wadly 0:37:43.120 --> 0:37:46.560 backed behind the. Line my hunch is That Kirk ferrence 0:37:46.640 --> 0:37:49.880 is cool with, that just those two. Parts, yeah got 0:37:49.880 --> 0:37:52.400 a new, quarterback got to figure out the whole receiver. 0:37:52.520 --> 0:37:54.960 Thing all they really want to do is run. Anyway, 0:37:56.160 --> 0:38:01.080 yes that's sort of their Vanilla iowa offensive. Formula Akram 0:38:01.120 --> 0:38:06.080 wadley and a. Line what can you do? Offensively he's 0:38:06.080 --> 0:38:09.640 got talent along the defensive line and at the back 0:38:09.719 --> 0:38:12.440 end of his. Defense there's a fair amount of experience 0:38:12.640 --> 0:38:15.360 just as a whole on the defense THAT i Think 0:38:15.719 --> 0:38:17.160 Kirk farens will rely. 0:38:17.040 --> 0:38:19.560 On Josie jewel back by the way for like his 0:38:19.640 --> 0:38:21.200 thirty fifth. YEAR i love that. 0:38:21.719 --> 0:38:25.799 Absolutely the real question, though is in the. Secondary, again 0:38:25.840 --> 0:38:29.359 they Lose Desmond king a few other. Guys how will 0:38:29.360 --> 0:38:32.640 the interior line hold? Up another QUESTION i, have BUT 0:38:33.000 --> 0:38:34.960 i think for the most part should be. 0:38:35.040 --> 0:38:38.239 Okay, yeah this defense was incredible last, year and, like 0:38:38.280 --> 0:38:40.440 even if you look at The november, numbers which included 0:38:40.480 --> 0:38:44.359 The Penn state. Thrashing they shut everybody else. Down it's 0:38:44.360 --> 0:38:48.120 still finished like a top Fifteen november, defense including the 0:38:48.200 --> 0:38:51.160 numbers from That Penn state. Game so when they're, rolling 0:38:51.239 --> 0:38:54.840 when they are operating at their, ceiling at their, peak 0:38:54.880 --> 0:38:58.280 and they keep recruiting and, developing and the secondary locks everybody, 0:38:58.320 --> 0:39:01.640 down and they're built specifically to beat just about everybody 0:39:01.719 --> 0:39:05.839 or hold down just about every big ten. Offense they're. 0:39:05.920 --> 0:39:10.200 Dangerous it's underrated criminally every. Year and the problem is 0:39:10.360 --> 0:39:12.680 they can't GENERATE i don't know who's catching passes for 0:39:12.719 --> 0:39:13.520 them offensive, like. 0:39:13.560 --> 0:39:15.480 Well that, see that's. It you, know you've got a new, 0:39:15.520 --> 0:39:18.600 Quarterback Nate, Stantlee Tyler, wiegers who? Knows, YEAH i think 0:39:18.640 --> 0:39:21.560 It's stanley but, yeah, Yeah stanley looked good in, spring 0:39:21.640 --> 0:39:25.200 but only through five passes in his freshman. Year whoever 0:39:25.440 --> 0:39:28.160 is going to be their starter leading receiver is Achrom 0:39:28.160 --> 0:39:31.400 wadley coming back from a year? Ago yeah, right and after, 0:39:31.520 --> 0:39:34.719 Him Matt vanderberg and his cursed field. Up, YEAH i 0:39:34.840 --> 0:39:37.200 have to deal with. That but a big question, mark 0:39:37.600 --> 0:39:39.399 and they've proven they can win by running the ball 0:39:39.440 --> 0:39:41.839 and playing. Defense they're gonna have to do a lot 0:39:41.840 --> 0:39:43.760 of that this year until they can get their passing 0:39:43.760 --> 0:39:45.640 games sorted, out because that's always been a bit of 0:39:45.680 --> 0:39:49.240 a sawt spot for. Them my big question With iowa 0:39:50.080 --> 0:39:53.840 is where is the. FLOOR i feel like the ceiling 0:39:53.920 --> 0:39:57.560 on this schedule is eight and four the. Floor the 0:39:57.640 --> 0:40:01.200 floor could be five and, seven could be four and. 0:40:01.280 --> 0:40:06.239 Eight they've lost five games six of the past seven, 0:40:06.320 --> 0:40:10.440 YEARS i believe because they've had some Bad bowl performances 0:40:10.440 --> 0:40:14.960 to get to five. Losses so outside of The Big 0:40:15.000 --> 0:40:18.520 ten championship year in which they also lost pretty badly To, 0:40:18.520 --> 0:40:23.279 stanford they they're a team that will play up and 0:40:23.360 --> 0:40:27.839 play down and that's got to be. Disappointing so if 0:40:27.840 --> 0:40:30.760 they're able to maintain a more even keel on Offense 0:40:30.840 --> 0:40:33.239 Brian farren steps in as the offensive, coordinator like we, 0:40:33.360 --> 0:40:36.640 mentioned if they're able to find some guys to stretch 0:40:36.680 --> 0:40:39.680 the fields and keep safeties back a little bit and 0:40:39.680 --> 0:40:42.880 give Achrom wildly some. ROOM i was in good shape, 0:40:43.239 --> 0:40:47.640 schedules not great early. On wyoming is a tricky, team ye, 0:40:47.760 --> 0:40:48.600 See allen. 0:40:48.680 --> 0:40:51.839 Hold on hold That, thokay if it's one month from 0:40:51.880 --> 0:40:55.120 now AND i tell you That iowa lost To wyoming 0:40:55.120 --> 0:40:57.399 And Josh allen because he threw all over. Them would 0:40:57.400 --> 0:40:57.960 that surprise? 0:40:58.000 --> 0:41:02.040 You it would surprise me a little, bit just because 0:41:03.120 --> 0:41:05.480 a passing game is more than just a. Quarterback he's 0:41:05.480 --> 0:41:07.480 got to be, protected there's got to be pass, catchers 0:41:07.520 --> 0:41:09.200 AND i always should have a good defense and should 0:41:09.200 --> 0:41:11.000 be able to Pressure Josh allen a little. Bit but 0:41:11.560 --> 0:41:13.680 it would surprise me a little. Bit very few teams 0:41:13.680 --> 0:41:16.720 are able to just Shred iowa through The what about 0:41:17.000 --> 0:41:18.239 what About Iowa. 0:41:17.920 --> 0:41:18.759 State In week? 0:41:18.760 --> 0:41:23.400 Two i've got a great, Receiver they've got a very promising, Quarterback. 0:41:23.080 --> 0:41:26.240 Duke Of Hazzard Awn. Lazard, right, Yeah duke Of, Hazard Awln, Lazard. 0:41:26.280 --> 0:41:32.400 LIZARD i Think iowa is too good to lose either 0:41:32.440 --> 0:41:34.319 of those, games but it is early. 0:41:34.360 --> 0:41:37.680 On it is a new. Offense we'll. See projected wins 0:41:37.719 --> 0:41:41.520 according To Bill connolly is five point, Nine so steering 0:41:41.719 --> 0:41:43.799 six and six right in the face. HERE i think 0:41:43.840 --> 0:41:48.680 ceilings eight and. FOUR i think floors probably realistically about 0:41:48.960 --> 0:41:49.319 five and. 0:41:49.400 --> 0:41:53.120 Seven, WOW i have seven and five for this. Team, 0:41:53.239 --> 0:41:57.760 okay too much play up play down for The. Hawkeyes next? 0:41:57.920 --> 0:41:59.600 Topic what do we? 0:41:59.640 --> 0:42:01.919 Got next?

ALLEN i like This Tom 0:42:17.080 --> 0:42:20.120 allen takes. Over he did an admirable job with their. 0:42:20.160 --> 0:42:25.080 Defense the teeth of this team in twenty seventeen will 0:42:25.120 --> 0:42:26.680 be its, defense. 0:42:26.560 --> 0:42:30.000 So weird to, say in like twenty, fourteen Oh indiana's 0:42:30.000 --> 0:42:30.680 defense so. 0:42:30.800 --> 0:42:33.880 Bizarre, yeah the teeth of this team is going to 0:42:33.920 --> 0:42:37.880 be its, defense particularly its, secondary which has a ton of. 0:42:37.920 --> 0:42:40.879 Experience i'm not saying they're going to Beat Ohio. State 0:42:41.320 --> 0:42:43.319 i'm not saying they're gonna Be penn say, it, Ty 0:42:43.920 --> 0:42:46.600 i'm Not Sata. Bowls i'm not going. There they Play 0:42:46.600 --> 0:42:49.520 Ohio State week, One they're probably gonna get. Killed but 0:42:50.440 --> 0:42:54.520 if the defense, holds you shouldn't be surprised if one 0:42:54.560 --> 0:42:56.799 of those games is closer than meets the. Eye THAT 0:42:56.920 --> 0:42:59.160 i could see they did that last. Year, yeah you're 0:42:59.239 --> 0:43:01.960 right THAT i could. SEE i don't like the fact 0:43:02.000 --> 0:43:04.400 That Tom allen Hired mike to. Board i'm okay with. 0:43:04.480 --> 0:43:10.000 IT i don't like, That, okay, statistically The board has 0:43:10.040 --> 0:43:13.920 been an okay, coordinator but nobody likes. Him people don't like. 0:43:14.000 --> 0:43:17.360 Him they feel he's too. Conservative if you're An indiana, 0:43:17.440 --> 0:43:19.680 FAN i don't know what it's going to feel like 0:43:19.800 --> 0:43:22.359 going From Kevin wilson in his offense to Now mike 0:43:22.400 --> 0:43:25.839 De board and whatever he's cooking.

Year Maybe i'm 0:43:30.680 --> 0:43:33.920 a little too high on, them BUT i think defense 0:43:33.960 --> 0:43:36.880 can can really propel you in The big, ten especially 0:43:36.920 --> 0:43:40.200 in The big. Ten WEST i like my Boy Simmy. 0:43:40.239 --> 0:43:42.840 COBBS i like my boy To Gray. SCALES i like 0:43:42.880 --> 0:43:45.120 my Boy Richard. Lugou are you a lego? MANIAC i 0:43:45.120 --> 0:43:48.520 am a lego? Maniac, ty while we're on the, subject, 0:43:48.640 --> 0:43:55.600 YEAH i have a dude. Alert whoa, Whoa, okay, YEAH 0:43:55.800 --> 0:43:58.360 i have it was? It are you a lego? MANIAC 0:43:58.560 --> 0:44:00.520 i am a lego. Maniac well he's. Fine he's. 0:44:00.560 --> 0:44:02.719 Big if he puts it, together he's got nice. Size 0:44:02.800 --> 0:44:09.040 But Nick westbrook is, OH i believe the Returning Big 0:44:09.120 --> 0:44:13.480 ten receiving. LEADER i believe that's the. Case austin Car goon, 0:44:13.719 --> 0:44:17.800 yeah he. Is he's not, huge but he's got breakaway. 0:44:17.840 --> 0:44:19.880 Speed he turns a little bit into a lot of 0:44:19.920 --> 0:44:23.200 bit AND i really like his ability in mid air 0:44:23.239 --> 0:44:26.360 to win one on one, battles toss. Ups Nick westbrook's 0:44:26.440 --> 0:44:28.920 really really good and if he's able to stretch the, 0:44:28.920 --> 0:44:30.880 FIELD i Think indiana has a good shot to be 0:44:30.920 --> 0:44:32.840 able to once. Again and it's strange to say. It 0:44:32.880 --> 0:44:35.480 After Tevin coleman And Jordan, howard they didn't run the 0:44:35.520 --> 0:44:38.000 ball FOR i was going to, SAY i was going 0:44:38.080 --> 0:44:41.160 to say a bad. Word we're a family. Program they 0:44:41.160 --> 0:44:42.880 couldn't run it at all last, year which is very 0:44:42.880 --> 0:44:46.279 strange to. Say so if they're able to Get nick 0:44:46.320 --> 0:44:48.600 west we're going once again this. YEAR i think there's 0:44:48.600 --> 0:44:51.680 a good chance that will impact pretty much everything Across 0:44:51.800 --> 0:44:53.719 indiana and what they're trying to. Do and you're, Right 0:44:53.800 --> 0:44:56.040 Tom allen is an impactful. Guy we sawt it all 0:44:56.080 --> 0:44:58.400 miss we saw IT usf when he. Left there was a. 0:44:58.440 --> 0:45:02.320 Difference when he got to he turned a just train 0:45:02.400 --> 0:45:06.279 wreck of a defense into something at first respectable and 0:45:06.280 --> 0:45:09.360 by the end of last year pretty. Good and that's 0:45:09.560 --> 0:45:11.600 that's saying a lot At indiana with where they were 0:45:11.680 --> 0:45:13.960 SO i like the. Impact if he can do for 0:45:14.120 --> 0:45:17.560 The hoosiers for what he did for defense both In 0:45:17.600 --> 0:45:20.920 bloomington and other, places then they will be frisky. 0:45:21.000 --> 0:45:23.560 Ty how About? YES i like. THAT i like that a. 0:45:23.600 --> 0:45:26.160 Lot this has the makings of a team THAT i 0:45:26.160 --> 0:45:29.000 think loses To Ohio state week, one no big, surprise 0:45:29.800 --> 0:45:31.919 and then everyone just writes them off and forgets about. 0:45:31.960 --> 0:45:35.760 Him then they maybe they pull an. Upset it's probably 0:45:35.800 --> 0:45:37.600 a little over zelus to say they're. 0:45:37.440 --> 0:45:39.920 Give me the team that they beat that is much 0:45:39.960 --> 0:45:42.640 more talented that they shouldn't. Beat that is An Ohio 0:45:42.680 --> 0:45:46.120 state that's on their, schedule that an experienced secondary. 0:45:46.320 --> 0:45:49.200 Like for, me it might Be, Wisconsin. WISCONSIN i was 0:45:49.200 --> 0:45:54.280 gonna Say. Michigan They're wisconsin's In, bloomington, Right, yes, yeah, 0:45:54.440 --> 0:45:59.040 SURE i don't. Know but maybe they knock somebody off 0:45:59.040 --> 0:46:00.919 everyone thinks it's a flu before you know. What they're 0:46:01.000 --> 0:46:03.279 like a seven and five bowl. Team, yeah it'd be 0:46:03.280 --> 0:46:08.120 great projected. Wins we've got six point six. HERE i 0:46:08.200 --> 0:46:10.600 Like indiana a lot this. YEAR i did rank them 0:46:10.600 --> 0:46:14.080 Above nebraska my hunches that you didn't, WOW i THINK 0:46:14.080 --> 0:46:20.040 i Have nebraska. Ahead, okay WHY i think we're getting closer. 0:46:19.640 --> 0:46:22.959 As Mike riley enters another season to running the type 0:46:23.000 --> 0:46:25.919 of system that he'd like to be running offensively With Danny. 0:46:26.000 --> 0:46:28.680 LANGSDORFF i know they they bring In Bob, DIACO i 0:46:28.719 --> 0:46:31.200 don't know that the personnel is exactly, right and they 0:46:31.239 --> 0:46:33.120 lose their, best you, know arguably the best player on, 0:46:33.200 --> 0:46:34.520 Defense Nick. 0:46:34.600 --> 0:46:36.200 Gary BUT. 0:46:38.160 --> 0:46:43.000 I just there's there's enough talent In nebraska that If 0:46:43.040 --> 0:46:48.640 Tanner lee is, fine that already feels more impactful Than 0:46:48.680 --> 0:46:51.520 Tommy armstrong at least through the, Air, Okay AND i 0:46:51.520 --> 0:46:53.520 thought that held them back a little bit last, year 0:46:53.520 --> 0:46:53.880 to say the. 0:46:53.960 --> 0:46:55.880 Least SO i Like. 0:46:56.000 --> 0:46:59.600 Nebraska i'm pulling up their schedule right now because, yeah unlike, You, 0:46:59.719 --> 0:47:01.040 TAI i do not memorize. 0:47:01.080 --> 0:47:04.600 SCHEDULE i have it here in front of. Me. Yeah not. 0:47:05.040 --> 0:47:08.560 Terrible Arkansas state At, oregon which they weren't able to 0:47:08.640 --> 0:47:10.640 run the ball last. Year that was the. Problem they 0:47:10.640 --> 0:47:15.000 Weren't Northern, Illinois rutgers At, illinois Then wisconsin Then Ohio 0:47:15.040 --> 0:47:17.720 state back to back. Weeks that'll be. Tough At Purdue 0:47:17.760 --> 0:47:22.000 northwestern At, minnesota At Penn State. Iowa so not the 0:47:22.040 --> 0:47:23.759 easiest Of. No ten. 0:47:23.880 --> 0:47:27.799 Schedules it's a tough, schedule though they only really in 0:47:27.880 --> 0:47:30.080 terms of tough games on the. Road it really is 0:47:30.120 --> 0:47:31.960 only That Penn state game near the end of the. 0:47:32.040 --> 0:47:32.880 Year. Right. 0:47:32.960 --> 0:47:36.319 YEAH i am not A nebraska fan this, year BUT 0:47:36.360 --> 0:47:39.319 i am. EXCITED i Hope i'm. Wrong they are to 0:47:39.440 --> 0:47:42.760 me the ultimate glass half, full glass half empty. Team 0:47:43.239 --> 0:47:45.319 it sounds to me like you're trusting in the law 0:47:45.320 --> 0:47:49.360 firm Of, Riley diaco And. LEE i don't know That 0:47:49.400 --> 0:47:52.839 i'm fully. TRUSTING i don't have them on, retainer, no, 0:47:52.920 --> 0:47:55.520 okay BUT i have very few options in terms of 0:47:56.000 --> 0:47:58.640 quarterbacks and teams to believe. IN i think that they 0:47:58.880 --> 0:48:01.560 probably lose to they should have lost last year With 0:48:01.600 --> 0:48:06.440 oregon's second best. QUARTERBACK i don't think they're super. Susceptible 0:48:06.440 --> 0:48:08.320 and what they, lose like sixty two to three To Ohio, 0:48:08.320 --> 0:48:11.040 state they'll probably be somewhat better this Year against The. 0:48:11.040 --> 0:48:17.280 BUCKEYES i have them eight and four. Wow, yeah maybe 0:48:17.320 --> 0:48:21.000 seven and five. Wow it so much depends On tannerly 0:48:21.120 --> 0:48:23.400 and IF i have to hear about the De manning passing. 0:48:23.400 --> 0:48:27.960 Academy it's great that he played well at. 0:48:28.040 --> 0:48:31.920 Camp that's. Aw so Did MIKE. Barcovici, right it was really, 0:48:31.960 --> 0:48:33.879 well WHY i am excited to See Tanner. Lee he's 0:48:33.920 --> 0:48:36.200 a transfer From. Tulane if you're playing the home, game 0:48:36.239 --> 0:48:37.480 don't know who we're talking about. 0:48:37.480 --> 0:48:41.120 Here, yeah he's a. Transfer he Left tulane because they 0:48:41.120 --> 0:48:44.919 switched over to a different. Offense he is definitively more 0:48:44.960 --> 0:48:49.160 of A Mike riley style pro style quarterback Than Tommy. 0:48:49.239 --> 0:48:52.960 Armstrong and when he had time to throw operative phrase At, 0:48:52.960 --> 0:48:57.200 tulane he was really, good very. Impressive he absolutely has 0:48:57.239 --> 0:49:01.960 potential to be very good At, nebraska And i'm excited 0:49:01.960 --> 0:49:04.560 to see what he can. Do nebraska fans are mega, 0:49:04.600 --> 0:49:08.000 excited which is. Cool the word of, caution, though who's 0:49:08.040 --> 0:49:10.759 he throwing? To by the, way well, Exactly. Yeah the 0:49:10.800 --> 0:49:14.239 word of caution is, this don't get so excited About 0:49:14.280 --> 0:49:16.200 Tanner lee that you forget about the other twenty one 0:49:16.239 --> 0:49:19.719 guys on the starting roster because there's an awful lot 0:49:19.719 --> 0:49:22.680 of turnover. Here who's he throwing? TO a good? Question 0:49:22.920 --> 0:49:25.799 who's he handing off? To another big? Question will his 0:49:25.920 --> 0:49:29.440 line give him more time than that At? TULANE i hope, so, 0:49:29.960 --> 0:49:33.760 yeah not a. Given Will Bob diaco and his beautiful 0:49:33.800 --> 0:49:38.000 head of hair have a great impact switching over to 0:49:38.000 --> 0:49:40.640 a three four to help that. Defense how long is 0:49:40.680 --> 0:49:42.960 it going to take for that to? Click and to 0:49:43.000 --> 0:49:46.040 what end can his secondary carry the load for the 0:49:46.080 --> 0:49:48.960 rest of the, defense because, again a lot of, inexperience 0:49:49.000 --> 0:49:52.680 a lot of. TURNOVER i want to Approach nebraska with 0:49:52.719 --> 0:49:55.120 an open mind this, year BUT i just SAID i 0:49:55.160 --> 0:49:57.960 have more questions THAN i do answers the first year 0:49:58.000 --> 0:50:00.680 where it feels to me like it's All riley guys in. 0:50:00.719 --> 0:50:05.400 There But i'm looking at the schedule, now with the 0:50:05.440 --> 0:50:09.480 exception Of, purdue pretty much every game In october And 0:50:09.520 --> 0:50:10.719 november feels like a toss. 0:50:10.800 --> 0:50:14.920 Up, YEAH i think the secondary is mostly back other Than. 0:50:14.960 --> 0:50:17.279 Gary gary the secondary, right but, AGAIN i don't know 0:50:17.320 --> 0:50:18.440 if that's the greatest thing in the. 0:50:18.480 --> 0:50:21.279 World to what degree can the secondary carry the water 0:50:21.719 --> 0:50:23.680 for the rest of the defense until it comes. Along 0:50:23.880 --> 0:50:26.839 if you're feeling a nine to three season For, nebraska 0:50:27.360 --> 0:50:30.239 you're taking a huge leap of faith based solely on. 0:50:30.320 --> 0:50:36.239 POTENTIAL i could totally see like five and. Seven, Wow 0:50:36.640 --> 0:50:40.080 i'm just not Inow, okay And nebraska, fans by the, 0:50:40.120 --> 0:50:43.480 way are very friendly until they're very much. NOT i 0:50:43.520 --> 0:50:46.759 don't want to Cross nebraska fans that listen to this 0:50:46.840 --> 0:50:51.279 show BECAUSE i am, excited genuinely excited For. NEBRASKA i 0:50:51.320 --> 0:50:54.479 am rooting For Tanner lee and For Mike. Riley there's 0:50:54.600 --> 0:50:57.600 nothing about this team THAT i don't. Like you come 0:50:57.640 --> 0:50:59.759 across a lot Of nebraska fans And east all the 0:50:59.760 --> 0:51:04.480 time they're just, Warning, Yeah. Okay All i'm saying IS 0:51:04.760 --> 0:51:07.640 i am not willing to take that leap of faith quite. Yet, 0:51:08.280 --> 0:51:11.000 Okay so if it's harsh to say five and, seven 0:51:11.040 --> 0:51:11.319 so be. 0:51:11.400 --> 0:51:13.000 It but that's What i'm aren't seven to. Five but, 0:51:13.080 --> 0:51:15.560 Yeah i'm with, you all. Right seven and five just 0:51:15.560 --> 0:51:17.279 feels like a Very Mike riley year every. 0:51:17.360 --> 0:51:21.240 Year, true very. True let's go To, Minnesota, Dan, okay 0:51:21.320 --> 0:51:23.279 are you rowing the? Boat are you? Feeling are you 0:51:23.320 --> 0:51:28.360 Feeling minnesota this? Year a little? Bit but not? Really, 0:51:29.040 --> 0:51:30.520 okay explain. 0:51:32.200 --> 0:51:35.120 It's a transition. Year there are pieces on both sides 0:51:35.160 --> 0:51:38.799 that are. Decent BUT i the big thing with WHAT. 0:51:38.920 --> 0:51:42.440 Pj fleck and his guys that he brought over assistant 0:51:42.480 --> 0:51:44.440 coach wise that they were able to. Do they didn't 0:51:44.760 --> 0:51:47.440 turn the ball over a, Lot they played, smart fundamental. 0:51:47.480 --> 0:51:51.200 Football they let other teams make, mistakes they didn't they 0:51:51.239 --> 0:51:54.279 weren't taking a ton of. Chances they were just not 0:51:54.440 --> 0:51:56.560 taking a ton of chances in a fun, way if 0:51:56.600 --> 0:52:00.800 that makes any. Sense so it feels like a good 0:52:00.840 --> 0:52:04.600 addition To, minnesota and it was time for a change 0:52:04.800 --> 0:52:07.239 after everything that happened last year With Tracy clays And Jerry. 0:52:07.320 --> 0:52:10.440 Kill it was sort of not a great. Breakup but. 0:52:12.040 --> 0:52:16.600 Looking At minnesota's schedule right, now it's NOT i have 0:52:16.640 --> 0:52:18.600 a Sound, dan who AM? I? 0:52:19.520 --> 0:52:26.000 There we go talk about the, Schedule, dan with that 0:52:26.040 --> 0:52:33.120 as your. Backdrop so If minnesota were built impressively or slightly, 0:52:33.160 --> 0:52:36.480 Impressively i'd say they should be starting seven to zero 0:52:37.040 --> 0:52:39.560 because they don't play a single team who finished twenty 0:52:39.560 --> 0:52:42.480 sixteen the regular season with a winning, record A power 0:52:42.480 --> 0:52:45.000 five team. Anyway because they do Have Middle, TENNESSEE i think. 0:52:44.920 --> 0:52:46.440 When eight and, four but don't hold me to, That 0:52:47.000 --> 0:52:50.200 buffalo At Oregon, State Middle, Tennessee maryland At Purdue Michigan 0:52:50.200 --> 0:52:53.880 State illinois before they Get iowa on the Road halloween. 0:52:53.920 --> 0:53:01.520 Weekend so schedules, beautiful But i'm not excited too excited 0:53:01.520 --> 0:53:04.080 about any one specific. Part they have A i think 0:53:04.120 --> 0:53:07.040 they have a decent offensive, Line they've got a little 0:53:07.040 --> 0:53:10.839 bit of experience on, defense but there's nothing that jumps 0:53:10.840 --> 0:53:13.200 out to, me and they feel. 0:53:13.239 --> 0:53:16.680 Thin, Right they're very thin throughout their, defense especially they're 0:53:16.719 --> 0:53:21.160 stout up the middle. Defensively but quarterbacks a giant question, 0:53:21.239 --> 0:53:25.160 mark should have decent running back. Options Rodney, Smith Shannon. 0:53:25.160 --> 0:53:27.480 BROOKS i think they'll be okay in that, department but 0:53:28.280 --> 0:53:31.640 there are a lot of questions. Here six and six 0:53:32.200 --> 0:53:37.640 is about the projection For minnesota this. Season it feels 0:53:37.680 --> 0:53:42.680 to me like we should really CONSIDER. Pj fleck and 0:53:42.719 --> 0:53:45.319 his antics as something that we draft at our live 0:53:45.360 --> 0:53:49.080 show on the. Weekend, OKAY. Pj fleck and the whole 0:53:49.160 --> 0:53:50.879 row The boat, thing, which by the, way he brought 0:53:50.920 --> 0:53:54.400 over they got the rights to. IT. Pj fleck and 0:53:54.400 --> 0:53:57.840 that energetic row the boat mentally rolling the boat in 0:53:57.920 --> 0:54:00.759 The land of ten Thousand. Lakes. AH i like. That 0:54:01.880 --> 0:54:05.440 something like. That you're gonna hear all throughout this college football. 0:54:05.440 --> 0:54:08.640 Season he will have them amped. Up they will knock somebody. 0:54:08.640 --> 0:54:11.160 Off AND i don't know who he will bring that? 0:54:11.239 --> 0:54:15.759 Program who tie to Aven. BOIL i am excited to 0:54:15.800 --> 0:54:18.680 see what he. Does who are they knocking off Be? 0:54:18.800 --> 0:54:23.360 Bold they knocking Off michigan on the? 0:54:23.440 --> 0:54:23.600 Road? 0:54:23.800 --> 0:54:26.359 Nah and they Beating nebraska at home the week After. 0:54:26.360 --> 0:54:27.239 Michigan iowa on the. 0:54:27.320 --> 0:54:30.160 Road that's not. Bold you At iowa going five and. 0:54:30.200 --> 0:54:37.160 Seven iowa on the, Road, OKAY i don't. Know northwestern 0:54:37.200 --> 0:54:40.239 on the. Road maybe all, Right i'm not talking with 0:54:40.520 --> 0:54:43.960 a big, gun BUT i could see them knocking somebody. 0:54:44.000 --> 0:54:46.600 Off defense should be pretty. Good it could be a 0:54:46.680 --> 0:54:48.920 talk to your kids About minnesota kind of year if 0:54:48.920 --> 0:54:54.359 they do start, second just, saying, okay all, right where 0:54:54.400 --> 0:54:56.160 are we going? Next, now we've only got a handful 0:54:56.160 --> 0:54:59.279 of teams. Left we are running grossly over time so 0:54:59.360 --> 0:55:01.720 far because the way too many teams in this. Conference, 0:55:01.760 --> 0:55:04.520 NOW i was promised ten, teams but apparently there are. 0:55:04.560 --> 0:55:07.319 More you know, what screw. It everybody's gonna expect us 0:55:07.360 --> 0:55:10.359 to finish With. Rutgers let's go To. Piscataway let's talk About. 0:55:10.440 --> 0:55:12.880 Rutgers let's talk About Kyle. Bollen let's talk about a 0:55:12.920 --> 0:55:16.480 team completely comprised of grad transfers and the fact That 0:55:16.560 --> 0:55:19.880 rutgers might Be, okay how about, that, Ty. 0:55:19.960 --> 0:55:23.439 This team is constructed like a homeless Man's Iowa state 0:55:24.680 --> 0:55:27.200 the way they've gone, Out i'm serious, Now Chris ashboud 0:55:27.239 --> 0:55:29.440 and grad transfers are fill in the. Gaps it's like 0:55:29.480 --> 0:55:32.759 a college basketball team exactly to learn the players every. 0:55:32.800 --> 0:55:36.640 YEAR a really bad offense a year, Ago, dan no 0:55:36.680 --> 0:55:39.440 doubt about. It we got no, food we got no, 0:55:39.600 --> 0:55:45.319 jobs our pets head a fawn. Up just not a 0:55:45.360 --> 0:55:49.839 good year for The Scarlet. Knights really bad, offense no big. 0:55:49.880 --> 0:55:54.239 Playability they lose quite a bit along the defensive. Line 0:55:54.360 --> 0:55:58.160 secondary should actually be half. DECENT i don't think this 0:55:58.200 --> 0:56:02.440 will be a good team this. Year, HOWEVER i feel 0:56:02.480 --> 0:56:07.279 like we will maybe start to see the blueprint take. 0:56:07.360 --> 0:56:10.440 Shape we might see some baby steps here because there 0:56:10.440 --> 0:56:13.120 are a lot of younger. Guys it's not a stretch 0:56:13.200 --> 0:56:16.480 to think that this team could be much improved next. 0:56:16.520 --> 0:56:19.200 Season it just might take a little bit of time 0:56:19.320 --> 0:56:24.680 in twenty seventeen to congeal around a common blueprint to 0:56:24.800 --> 0:56:28.279 see some forward. Progression the thing is they were so 0:56:28.440 --> 0:56:30.600 bad a year ago that even if they get a 0:56:30.640 --> 0:56:33.040 lot better this, year it still might look like three to. 0:56:33.200 --> 0:56:36.799 Nine uh, yeah the defense should be all. Right if 0:56:36.840 --> 0:56:41.439 the offense can just like get first, downs then that's 0:56:41.600 --> 0:56:46.480 an enormous improvement that is world shatteringly, great and we'll 0:56:46.480 --> 0:56:49.000 help the defense stay off the field and get some 0:56:49.160 --> 0:56:52.840 rest and perhaps force some turnovers and put the offense 0:56:52.880 --> 0:56:55.200 in a good. Position so, YEAH i think they're going 0:56:55.320 --> 0:57:00.759 from embarrassment completely beat, up you, know just get off 0:57:00.800 --> 0:57:06.240 the field and get To sunday whatever to all, right flash, 0:57:06.280 --> 0:57:07.160 here flash. 0:57:07.239 --> 0:57:11.600 There they've got big ten ish, Players they've got a, 0:57:11.600 --> 0:57:12.760 good decent coaching. 0:57:12.800 --> 0:57:15.719 Staff they've got a bunch of seniors grad. Transfers you 0:57:15.760 --> 0:57:18.520 know when sometimes twenty two year old's playing against eighteen year, 0:57:18.520 --> 0:57:22.960 olds that's an. Advantage depends what can bey And rutgers 0:57:23.040 --> 0:57:25.880 is going up with their voice LIKE i just. Did, 0:57:26.080 --> 0:57:31.200 yeah and that's. FINE i Think rutgers can go four 0:57:31.200 --> 0:57:33.240 and eight and show. 0:57:33.280 --> 0:57:36.800 Flashes so here's my next question for you, now as we. 0:57:36.440 --> 0:57:38.720 Got perdue In, october they needs to be able to Beat. 0:57:38.720 --> 0:57:40.920 Perdue which team games, arearly. 0:57:40.720 --> 0:57:43.400 It's a good. Segue which team do you feel better 0:57:43.400 --> 0:57:51.480 about in twenty Seventeen perdue Or Illinois? Perdue mammy, TOO 0:57:52.400 --> 0:57:52.760 i do. 0:57:52.680 --> 0:57:56.160 Love Mike dudek And god bless hope he stays, healthy, 0:57:56.200 --> 0:58:01.919 man but one smallish does not a huge difference Make 0:58:02.720 --> 0:58:05.440 So illinois got you, know they showed a COUPLE i, 0:58:05.480 --> 0:58:07.800 mean we talked about. Flashes they showed a couple nuggets last, 0:58:07.880 --> 0:58:10.400 year but there's too much work to be done In 0:58:10.520 --> 0:58:13.800 champagne at the, moment offensively in, particular and they lose 0:58:13.840 --> 0:58:16.479 so much on defense that they're starting over there now too. 0:58:18.920 --> 0:58:23.560 PERDUE i think at least they might get some decent quarterback, 0:58:23.640 --> 0:58:27.400 play and there's the element of, Well Jeff bram is. 0:58:27.440 --> 0:58:30.840 New by the, way did you come down on The 0:58:31.080 --> 0:58:32.760 Brian bram Or Stefan lafor's? 0:58:32.840 --> 0:58:33.080 Side? 0:58:35.200 --> 0:58:35.320 Guy? 0:58:35.880 --> 0:58:41.680 Bram oh, SEE i Was. Lafor's but there's intrigue With. 0:58:41.720 --> 0:58:43.880 PURDUE i don't think they're gonna be very, good but 0:58:44.680 --> 0:58:47.720 they could catch some somebody average and a shootout kind of. 0:58:47.720 --> 0:58:47.880 Thing. 0:58:48.000 --> 0:58:50.080 YEAH i mean the thing About, purdue you, know it's 0:58:50.120 --> 0:58:53.320 a total. Reboot they've been down for a. While nobody 0:58:53.640 --> 0:58:56.600 is stub hubbing tickets to The Rose bowl this, year 0:58:57.320 --> 0:58:59.760 So brom's got a bit of a lead seat geeking 0:59:01.600 --> 0:59:05.000 whatever it's going to require. PATIENTS i Think purdue fans 0:59:05.080 --> 0:59:07.800 know that going. IN i think he can rebuild. It 0:59:08.320 --> 0:59:11.640 he's a very good football. COACH i remember when he was, hired, thinking, 0:59:11.640 --> 0:59:14.680 wow that's that's kind of a coup For. Purdue, yeah 0:59:14.720 --> 0:59:18.360 and it's a pretty good defensive. Front so they've also 0:59:18.400 --> 0:59:21.240 Got Nick holt as their defensive, coordinator who's a game never. 0:59:21.080 --> 0:59:24.040 MIND i take everything back. Now he did a good 0:59:24.120 --> 0:59:27.760 job AT. Wku he really didn't help that defense. Improve 0:59:27.880 --> 0:59:29.160 it's obviously a step up now. 0:59:29.240 --> 0:59:32.760 Though, illinois on the other, hand from our Friend Bill, 0:59:32.800 --> 0:59:37.240 connolly forty two percent of their offensive possessions ended within 0:59:37.320 --> 0:59:41.400 three plays for a non scoring, reason so a punt 0:59:41.480 --> 0:59:44.240 or a. Turnover the offense couldn't stay on the, field 0:59:44.280 --> 0:59:47.440 the defense couldn't get off the. Field just a story of. 0:59:47.480 --> 0:59:51.520 Inefficiency The Lovey smith thing to me always felt a little. 0:59:51.520 --> 0:59:55.400 Odd just doesn't feel like a great. Fit it's not 0:59:55.440 --> 1:00:00.160 a proper cloth, fit absolutely. Not SO i. AM i 1:00:00.200 --> 1:00:06.680 am down On illinois again and optimistic About, purdue which 1:00:06.680 --> 1:00:09.240 brings us to our final two teams here in The Big. Ten. 1:00:09.640 --> 1:00:12.240 Ty when you were talking about produced twenty sixteen offense 1:00:12.600 --> 1:00:14.200 couldn't help but think of you, know the like the 1:00:14.240 --> 1:00:17.040 teen movies from the nineties ear least two, thousands when 1:00:17.560 --> 1:00:20.440 you know a character inevitably had to like think unsexy 1:00:20.480 --> 1:00:23.120 thoughts like, Baseball grandma. Baseball you know that kind of. 1:00:23.120 --> 1:00:26.960 Thing sure produced twenty sixteen offense produced twenty sixteen. Offense, 1:00:27.400 --> 1:00:30.800 okay everything's. Cool the cold shower of The big ten 1:00:31.120 --> 1:00:33.680 here it. Is, yeah let's go to The Maryland. Terrapins 1:00:33.720 --> 1:00:35.160 dan okay six and. 1:00:35.240 --> 1:00:38.959 SEVEN a year. AGO Dj dirkin did pretty well boll 1:00:39.080 --> 1:00:44.440 participant in his bull. Participant that's. RIGHT Dj dirkin did 1:00:44.440 --> 1:00:46.720 pretty well in his first, year especially in the recruiting, 1:00:46.760 --> 1:00:50.320 trail and he's really just trying to get better talent in. 1:00:50.360 --> 1:00:54.160 THERE i think that's the theme that you, discover especially 1:00:54.200 --> 1:00:57.320 along the defensive. Line who knows if any of those 1:00:57.320 --> 1:00:59.280 guys can come in and make an. Impact it wouldn't 1:00:59.320 --> 1:01:02.840 hurt if they, could because their run defense was terrible 1:01:02.880 --> 1:01:06.400 a year. Ago defense as a whole still still trying 1:01:06.400 --> 1:01:11.360 to figure some some stuff. Out quarterback a giant unknown 1:01:11.600 --> 1:01:13.720 could have a four way battle right. Now looks Like 1:01:13.800 --> 1:01:19.040 Caleb henderson transfer FROM, unc but, again who. Knows they 1:01:19.080 --> 1:01:21.720 Lose Perry hills And Alvin hill on defense and will 1:01:21.880 --> 1:01:26.520 likely on. Defense i'm gonna go dark horse here due to. 1:01:26.520 --> 1:01:32.560 Alert really give me Some Ty, Johnson dan my, Name, 1:01:32.640 --> 1:01:37.320 ah you love yourself Some Ti Ty johnson running Back. 1:01:38.120 --> 1:01:42.840 Maryland pair him With Lorenzo harrison and you, know it 1:01:42.960 --> 1:01:47.760 might not be a great year For maryland, football But 1:01:47.960 --> 1:01:52.800 Ty Johnson Lorenzo harrison should be a fun duo to 1:01:52.880 --> 1:01:56.080 watch in the. Backfield. YEAH i was gonna Go Saquon, 1:01:56.200 --> 1:01:59.760 barkley but everyone's everyone's going due to alert On saquon 1:01:59.800 --> 1:02:03.720 Bark yeah to Gimme Ty, johnson he's my. 1:02:03.800 --> 1:02:06.840 Boy, yeah he's gonna hold up What i'm not crazy 1:02:06.840 --> 1:02:09.120 about this. Offense, defensively they could be all, right but 1:02:09.280 --> 1:02:12.760 as you, mentioned they're pretty. Thin they could start, out 1:02:13.160 --> 1:02:14.960 they could lose a bunch of games to start the, 1:02:14.960 --> 1:02:17.760 season and they're gonna need to scoop up Like Indiana. 1:02:18.280 --> 1:02:21.360 Rutgers they might need to scoop up That northwestern. Game 1:02:21.400 --> 1:02:23.600 it's a drive to six kind of. YEAR i, think totaland. 1:02:23.880 --> 1:02:26.919 Totally But Ty Johnson Lorenzo harrison in a line that's 1:02:26.960 --> 1:02:31.920 actually half. Decent, okay all, right fair enough and in 1:02:32.000 --> 1:02:37.600 true form here the ultimate showing of. Disrespect let's go 1:02:37.600 --> 1:02:41.400 To Michigan state as our last. Year how are you 1:02:41.400 --> 1:02:44.240 feeling About Michigan? State dan was last year a fluke 1:02:44.600 --> 1:02:47.880 was last year a harbinger of things to come and 1:02:47.960 --> 1:02:52.120 where this program is now. Headed it can be a 1:02:52.120 --> 1:02:52.640 little bit of. 1:02:52.680 --> 1:02:56.360 Everything last, year it seemed like talent, wise they're in 1:02:56.400 --> 1:03:00.520 a pretty good. Space they get worse upfront, defensively secondary 1:03:00.680 --> 1:03:04.440 was sort of uncharacteristically atrocious last. Year there's certain things 1:03:04.440 --> 1:03:06.200 that even When Michigan state has a down, year like, 1:03:06.200 --> 1:03:07.840 well they're going to play the past pretty. Well the 1:03:07.840 --> 1:03:09.200 defense is going to know what they're going to, do 1:03:09.520 --> 1:03:12.120 know what they're doing at all, times even if they're out. 1:03:12.120 --> 1:03:15.520 Talented whatever you Know Brian laworki has experienced as a, 1:03:15.600 --> 1:03:16.400 QUARTERBACK i think. 1:03:16.280 --> 1:03:18.800 We both really LIKE. Lj scott as a running back 1:03:18.840 --> 1:03:20.840 in the. BACKFIELD i don't know who the work he's 1:03:20.960 --> 1:03:24.160 really going to be throwing. To it's a matter of 1:03:24.640 --> 1:03:28.440 Can Michigan state generate any sort of explosion on, offense 1:03:28.440 --> 1:03:31.080 and that's not really what their offense is built. Around 1:03:31.120 --> 1:03:36.360 but now, so No Josiah, price NO. Rj, shelton it's 1:03:36.840 --> 1:03:40.480 starting over after going whatever they, went was it three to? 1:03:40.600 --> 1:03:43.080 Nine three and. Nine it's probably for the. 1:03:43.120 --> 1:03:45.120 Best AND i Think mark D antonio was still too 1:03:45.200 --> 1:03:49.880 good a coach to just suddenly keep fielding lesser Than bowl. 1:03:49.960 --> 1:03:53.280 Teams SO i think they bounce. Back it's hard to 1:03:53.280 --> 1:03:56.040 see where that comes. From with how they're currently. Built 1:03:56.200 --> 1:03:59.200 SO i think they can get to a. BOWL i 1:03:59.240 --> 1:04:01.200 think they can go sick and, six seven and. Five 1:04:02.560 --> 1:04:05.320 it's just after last year bottoming out at the degree 1:04:05.320 --> 1:04:08.520 that they, did it's, tough and we, listen we both 1:04:08.640 --> 1:04:13.160 root for teams that bottomed. Out but it still seems, 1:04:13.200 --> 1:04:16.200 like you, know quarterback is pretty good For Oregon Notre 1:04:16.280 --> 1:04:19.440 dame right. Now there are pieces on. Offense this team 1:04:19.520 --> 1:04:21.960 is not built right, now and the coaching staff is not. 1:04:22.000 --> 1:04:26.200 Built it doesn't seem at the moment to suddenly string 1:04:26.280 --> 1:04:30.080 together more explosive, plays more efficient, plays especially when they 1:04:30.120 --> 1:04:33.320 played down so. Much they played up To Ohio, State 1:04:33.360 --> 1:04:35.320 michigan whatever for at least a good chunk of those. 1:04:35.320 --> 1:04:38.240 Games but to, me it seems. 1:04:38.280 --> 1:04:42.440 Mental if they can sort of get, focused play to 1:04:42.520 --> 1:04:44.560 play week to, week they'll be. 1:04:44.640 --> 1:04:47.080 FINE i don't. KNOW i, mean they'll go to a. 1:04:47.080 --> 1:04:51.480 BOWL i Just i'm not seeing any sort Of Rose 1:04:51.560 --> 1:04:52.400 return type. 1:04:52.560 --> 1:04:55.640 Situation here's the, thing when you take a look at the, 1:04:55.640 --> 1:04:58.520 schedule there aren't a whole lot of breaks, here especially 1:04:58.600 --> 1:05:02.120 for a team that is kind of going through another rebuilding. 1:05:02.200 --> 1:05:05.479 Year Both michigan And Ohio state are on the, Road 1:05:05.960 --> 1:05:09.360 you've Got Notre, Dame iowa And Penn state three tough 1:05:09.400 --> 1:05:14.280 games at. Home minnesota could be. Tricky northwestern we know 1:05:14.280 --> 1:05:16.320 he is going to be. Tricky indiana could be tricky 1:05:16.320 --> 1:05:18.640 with their. Defense Even maryland late in the year could be. 1:05:18.680 --> 1:05:22.720 Tricky to, me the real problem, here given the rebuild a, 1:05:22.760 --> 1:05:27.000 foot is that the ceiling might be seven and, five 1:05:27.040 --> 1:05:30.400 six and. Six that might be the ultimate ceiling for 1:05:30.440 --> 1:05:33.240 this team this. YEAR i just don't know which way it's. 1:05:33.240 --> 1:05:37.320 HEADED i LIKE. Lj, SCOTT i Like Gerald, HOLMES i 1:05:37.360 --> 1:05:39.360 even Like Brian. WILWORK i think he could be pretty. 1:05:39.360 --> 1:05:42.360 Good BUT i don't know if we have enough data 1:05:42.400 --> 1:05:46.040 to really feel confident About Michigan. State so did you Say, Gerald? 1:05:46.320 --> 1:05:46.880 YEAH i did Say. 1:05:46.920 --> 1:05:51.200 Gerald, yeah that's the greatest tongue got out in front 1:05:51.240 --> 1:05:53.520 of my. Brain, no that's ty your speed. 1:05:53.560 --> 1:05:56.640 Guy six and, six seven and, five that's the, Ceiling, 1:05:57.120 --> 1:05:59.280 okay you. 1:05:59.440 --> 1:06:03.919 TALK i think they could, surprise all. RIGHT i think 1:06:03.960 --> 1:06:06.720 they are back into the disrespected place that they. LIKE 1:06:07.240 --> 1:06:10.520 i think too many people are respecting. THEM i think 1:06:10.520 --> 1:06:13.160 they can go to A bowl. Game if, not even, 1:06:14.120 --> 1:06:15.919 listen who do they have at? Home which good teams 1:06:15.960 --> 1:06:16.160 do they? 1:06:16.160 --> 1:06:16.320 Have at. 1:06:16.360 --> 1:06:18.600 Home they Have Penn state at.

Hygiene what's that? 1:08:26.360 --> 1:08:29.599 Like, well we've had to Encourage DeNardo to shower modern 1:08:29.640 --> 1:08:32.280 once a week and that's been you, know it's been 1:08:32.320 --> 1:08:35.360 a slow process for. Him but, no everyone it's. GREAT i, 1:08:35.360 --> 1:08:37.960 mean the bus is. Fabulous it is a really nice. 1:08:38.040 --> 1:08:41.200 Bus so you've Got Wi fi on, there and you 1:08:41.280 --> 1:08:43.720 got a refrigerator that's fully, stocked and you got all 1:08:43.800 --> 1:08:47.360 kinds of snacks and their SATELLITE. Tv SO i, mean 1:08:47.400 --> 1:08:49.200 it's not like we're on the yellow school bus or. 1:08:49.240 --> 1:08:52.439 Anything it's it is a great. Deal we definitely have 1:08:52.520 --> 1:08:55.679 a routine with the boss kind of where everyone sits 1:08:55.720 --> 1:08:58.800 after all these, years and you, know everyone's got their own, 1:08:59.240 --> 1:09:03.959 peculiarity but by and, large, NO i hate to disappoint, 1:09:04.000 --> 1:09:07.440 you but we really don't have any overt hygiene. 1:09:07.600 --> 1:09:09.200 Problems we're our hygienic. 1:09:09.240 --> 1:09:12.080 Crew, Frankly, hey that's great to. HEAR i love hearing. 1:09:12.160 --> 1:09:15.960 That and so you're going across the, conference which it's 1:09:15.960 --> 1:09:18.960 an interesting year. Obviously you, know the national, PERCEPTION i 1:09:19.000 --> 1:09:22.160 think is that it's a conference that's still relatively top 1:09:22.200 --> 1:09:24.840 heavy With, Michigan Ohio state and Now Penn state with 1:09:24.920 --> 1:09:26.960 their performance the way they finished the year in such 1:09:27.000 --> 1:09:30.320 a strong, way is. There do you get a sense 1:09:30.640 --> 1:09:33.840 with now a few new coaches in both divisions that 1:09:33.880 --> 1:09:38.160 there is a shifting identity or have things sort of 1:09:38.280 --> 1:09:41.400 remained in your mind relatively static when you look at 1:09:41.400 --> 1:09:41.679 it big. 1:09:41.720 --> 1:09:45.320 Picture, Well i'll be really interested to see when we 1:09:45.439 --> 1:09:48.760 get to The, west and because that's the side of 1:09:48.800 --> 1:09:52.320 the conference that hasn't totally pulled its, way although Obviously 1:09:52.400 --> 1:09:56.639 wisconsin has been very good. Here you, Know iowa had 1:09:56.680 --> 1:09:59.600 one really good team two years, ago but by and, 1:09:59.680 --> 1:10:03.360 LARGE i mean you're, right there's this perception of. Imbalance 1:10:03.520 --> 1:10:06.479 the strongest programs right now appear to be the ones 1:10:06.520 --> 1:10:08.160 in The, east so it'll be interesting to see what's 1:10:08.200 --> 1:10:11.640 going on The. West nebraska's made some pretty dramatic overhauls 1:10:11.760 --> 1:10:15.559 with a new quarterback THAT'LL i think go more along 1:10:15.600 --> 1:10:18.320 the lines of What Mike riley's offensive philosophy has kind 1:10:18.320 --> 1:10:20.560 of always, been and then bringing In Bob biaco to 1:10:20.640 --> 1:10:23.160 run the. Defense so that should be really. INTERESTING i 1:10:23.160 --> 1:10:26.800 always got a new offensive, Coordinator Kirk parents's. Son you 1:10:26.880 --> 1:10:29.479 have a lot of talent At northwestern this, year particularly 1:10:29.479 --> 1:10:31.639 at the skill. Position so where do those teams fit? 1:10:31.720 --> 1:10:34.800 IN i do think that's, interesting but kind of until further, 1:10:34.920 --> 1:10:38.080 NOTICE i think The east is where the greatest strength 1:10:38.120 --> 1:10:40.800 in The Big ten Lies we've already Seen Ohio state 1:10:41.080 --> 1:10:44.160 that are really. Impressive we will See Penn, state AS 1:10:44.160 --> 1:10:47.160 i said later, Today we've Got michigan coming up on 1:10:47.200 --> 1:10:48.960 the back end of Our eastern swing a little bit 1:10:49.080 --> 1:10:52.080 later in the, week SO I Michigan state as. Well 1:10:52.120 --> 1:10:54.320 so we'll have a little bit better sense of where 1:10:54.320 --> 1:10:56.639 everyone fits in maybe ten days or so from. 1:10:56.640 --> 1:10:58.519 Now but If. 1:10:58.400 --> 1:11:02.040 Ohio state's any, indication the divisions could be pretty. Good 1:11:02.160 --> 1:11:03.880 they were really inspiring to. 1:11:03.920 --> 1:11:06.960 Watch on that same sort of, NOTES i think what 1:11:07.120 --> 1:11:10.639 seems to pop for, people certainly both Within big ten 1:11:10.720 --> 1:11:13.720 country and outside of, it is a certain excitement quot 1:11:13.920 --> 1:11:15.040 and we saw it at the end of the, year, 1:11:15.120 --> 1:11:18.280 PARTICULARLY i think With Penn state With Saqwon barkley and 1:11:18.320 --> 1:11:20.760 the rose, Ball Mike gseki making circus. Catches you, know 1:11:20.800 --> 1:11:24.160 The joe moorehead offense really reinvigorated things in state college 1:11:24.160 --> 1:11:26.400 where you are right. Now but you know there are 1:11:26.400 --> 1:11:29.439 losses At Ohio state with speed, guys and you KNOW. J. 1:11:29.520 --> 1:11:32.080 T barrett sort struggled down the. Stretch Michigan state was, 1:11:32.280 --> 1:11:33.200 disappointing to say the. 1:11:33.280 --> 1:11:33.760 Least last. 1:11:33.840 --> 1:11:37.160 Year michigan loses a couple of its excitement quotient pieces you, 1:11:37.200 --> 1:11:40.840 know highlighted By Jabrill. Peppers where do you think that 1:11:40.960 --> 1:11:44.320 excitement quotient can? Growth what are those new excitement? 1:11:44.439 --> 1:11:48.160 Names, WELL i Mean Prince state obviously has they're not new. 1:11:48.240 --> 1:11:50.880 Names but, right you have to legitimate highs from trophy 1:11:50.960 --> 1:11:53.000 and Well BARKLEY'S i think of legitimate highs from Trophy 1:11:53.040 --> 1:11:55.280 calay and maybe make sure he's kind of a Fringe 1:11:55.800 --> 1:11:56.559 Heisman Trophy. 1:11:56.640 --> 1:12:01.559 Calad i'll tell you who's really. Impressive dan IS. 1:12:02.439 --> 1:12:09.240 Jk dobbins In Ohio state freshman running. Back he's a pop. 1:12:09.320 --> 1:12:10.760 GUY i mean you look at him and you. 1:12:10.880 --> 1:12:15.800 Just, say, wow great, speed really. Athletic there is no 1:12:15.880 --> 1:12:18.160 doubt in my mind that he's going to play a 1:12:18.200 --> 1:12:21.479 really major role in their offense and maybe by the 1:12:21.560 --> 1:12:23.960 end of the, year could end up being their future. 1:12:24.000 --> 1:12:25.920 BACK i, Mean Mike weber if it was a big 1:12:25.960 --> 1:12:28.400 time pressure of the, year so it's a stretch to, 1:12:28.439 --> 1:12:31.160 say you, KNOW i, Mean weber will certainly be very 1:12:31.200 --> 1:12:34.799 involved in the. Offense but Man dobbins is something. Special 1:12:34.960 --> 1:12:38.639 so that's a GUY i could. See Hanner, lee by 1:12:38.680 --> 1:12:43.120 all indications Of nebraska, quarterback had a fabulous manning Passing. 1:12:43.160 --> 1:12:45.439 Academy some people say he was the best guy. There 1:12:46.000 --> 1:12:49.200 SO i think on that side of the, ledger on 1:12:49.320 --> 1:12:51.680 that side of the, conference you've got a guy who 1:12:51.760 --> 1:12:54.640 could turn into a marquee. Name so those are a 1:12:54.640 --> 1:12:56.080 few of the, guys you, know kind of based on 1:12:56.160 --> 1:12:57.000 what we've seen so. 1:12:57.160 --> 1:13:00.680 Far but, YEAH i mean that's you know on with. 1:13:00.720 --> 1:13:03.120 YOU i mean kind of the part of the appeal 1:13:03.120 --> 1:13:05.160 of The Big ten last year was you always want 1:13:05.160 --> 1:13:06.800 to see what Your Bill peppers was going to. Do 1:13:06.880 --> 1:13:08.920 then every time he touched the, ball there was that 1:13:09.000 --> 1:13:11.640 possibility for a big. Play certainly the case with Say 1:13:11.680 --> 1:13:13.760 Kwon barkley is one of the most explosive players in the. 1:13:13.760 --> 1:13:16.240 Country where do those guys come? From and that's something 1:13:16.240 --> 1:13:17.840 that that we're always kind of looking for on the. 1:13:17.880 --> 1:13:21.479 Tour is there a team, that as you look, forward 1:13:21.520 --> 1:13:23.800 maybe that's, somewhere BECAUSE i would say the middle class 1:13:23.840 --> 1:13:26.719 of the conference is fairly. Robust we don't know really 1:13:26.720 --> 1:13:29.320 who's going to, pop who's going to be unexpectedly, good 1:13:29.320 --> 1:13:31.800 who might struggle a little. Bit is there a team 1:13:31.880 --> 1:13:34.479 that you look at and, say they may not be 1:13:34.600 --> 1:13:36.599 near the top of the, conference but they can put 1:13:36.680 --> 1:13:40.280 up a, promising fun whether it's one side of the 1:13:40.320 --> 1:13:43.200 ball or the, other whether it's a specific. Player is 1:13:43.240 --> 1:13:46.120 there a team where you say the record might not reflect, 1:13:46.160 --> 1:13:48.760 it but they're going to be entertaining and sort of 1:13:48.800 --> 1:13:49.360 give people. 1:13:49.400 --> 1:13:50.920 Hell, WELL i do Think. 1:13:50.960 --> 1:13:53.040 NEBRASKA i, mean they were nine games last, year SO 1:13:53.040 --> 1:13:54.920 i don't know how big a stretch that, is But 1:13:55.080 --> 1:13:58.479 i'm surprised at how much people seem to be underestimating. 1:13:58.600 --> 1:14:00.920 Them you, know they have the, bulk the offensive line. 1:14:00.960 --> 1:14:05.519 BACK i think they'll be good. THERE i understand defense wasn't. 1:14:05.560 --> 1:14:08.439 Great you, know they did make this change Firing Mark, 1:14:08.479 --> 1:14:10.640 banker which you, know For Mike, RILEY i mean the 1:14:10.760 --> 1:14:13.959 classic nice guy to fire someone who's been his defensive 1:14:13.960 --> 1:14:16.200 coordinator for fourteen years and he's been with him for. 1:14:16.280 --> 1:14:21.280 Twenty that was somewhat, dramatic and it wasn't you know, 1:14:21.439 --> 1:14:23.720 FRANKLY i mean as the decause wasn't, great it was 1:14:23.720 --> 1:14:24.600 probably better than the. 1:14:24.600 --> 1:14:27.800 Offense so you, know that did it. 1:14:27.840 --> 1:14:29.880 Was it was a little bit, curious BUT i think 1:14:29.880 --> 1:14:33.400 that it does show that they believe there's there's kind 1:14:33.439 --> 1:14:36.360 of a higher upside to this. Program so that's probably 1:14:36.360 --> 1:14:38.120 What i'm. WATCHING i know there's a lot of Hyperbout. 1:14:38.160 --> 1:14:41.080 Northwestern i'll be interested to see. Them you, Know Justin 1:14:41.160 --> 1:14:44.200 jackson's a fabulous. Back Clayton forston is someone WHO i 1:14:44.280 --> 1:14:46.760 think is going to be a name that's talked about 1:14:46.800 --> 1:14:49.479 potentially in THE nfl, draft if not this, year then 1:14:49.600 --> 1:14:53.439 certainly the year. After SO i think that's a team 1:14:53.479 --> 1:14:55.960 that they could make some. Noice but they need to 1:14:55.960 --> 1:14:57.800 get better on the offensive. Line that's kind of an 1:14:57.880 --> 1:15:01.439 unbilling story for. Them i'm in The Sea. MINNESOTA i 1:15:01.439 --> 1:15:03.400 don't know if they're necessarily going to take a step 1:15:03.439 --> 1:15:03.960 forward this. 1:15:04.040 --> 1:15:05.639 Year but IF. 1:15:05.680 --> 1:15:08.120 Pj fleck doesn't interest, you then you don't like college, 1:15:08.120 --> 1:15:12.320 football so that could be a fascinating. One i'd say 1:15:12.320 --> 1:15:14.680 those are kind of the ones that would jump out of. 1:15:14.720 --> 1:15:16.160 Me most of them are in The. WEST i think 1:15:16.520 --> 1:15:18.760 people feel like The east are kind of the known 1:15:18.800 --> 1:15:20.960 commodities and The west is a little more where the 1:15:21.040 --> 1:15:21.639 question marks. 1:15:21.680 --> 1:15:24.879 Are so this will Be we're going into the tenth 1:15:25.040 --> 1:15:28.240 season of The Big ten network, existing AND i think 1:15:28.240 --> 1:15:31.360 a lot of people now remember that the first, broadcast 1:15:31.439 --> 1:15:34.559 the first game broadcast was that App State michigan. Game 1:15:34.960 --> 1:15:37.920 so broadly, speaking first of, all have you been there 1:15:37.960 --> 1:15:38.400 all ten? 1:15:38.479 --> 1:15:38.839 Years. 1:15:39.560 --> 1:15:42.280 Yeah, now so it. Is this is the eleventh. 1:15:42.360 --> 1:15:44.639 Season technically eleven of you guys are celebrating your. 1:15:45.240 --> 1:15:48.479 Tenth, yeah your tenth tenth, season the nine year. 1:15:48.560 --> 1:15:52.360 University it's our ten year anniversary of the Launch august, 1:15:52.360 --> 1:15:54.960 thirty two thousand and. SEVEN i was the first on air. 1:15:55.080 --> 1:15:57.799 Hire So i've been there the entire time. 1:15:58.680 --> 1:15:59.400 And it's been. 1:15:59.439 --> 1:16:02.599 AMAZING i mean that people do remember that App State michigan, 1:16:02.640 --> 1:16:05.000 game and we've had a lot of talk about this 1:16:05.160 --> 1:16:08.479 in the ensuing. Years and it's really, Weird, dan because that, 1:16:08.720 --> 1:16:11.639 DAY i, mean it was maybe the most historic upset 1:16:12.360 --> 1:16:15.000 in college football in the last twenty five. Years it 1:16:15.120 --> 1:16:17.640 was one of the historic upsets of all TIME i 1:16:17.680 --> 1:16:20.280 think in the. Game and yet it's. Weird there was 1:16:20.439 --> 1:16:21.240 so much that. 1:16:21.479 --> 1:16:23.640 DAY i kind of can we get on the. 1:16:23.680 --> 1:16:26.960 Air we've never done a pregame show together with this, group, 1:16:27.160 --> 1:16:29.920 right and we had launched two days, Before so you've 1:16:29.920 --> 1:16:31.719 never done a pregame. Show you never done a. Halftime 1:16:31.760 --> 1:16:34.519 the terminology that people are using is. DIFFERENT i, mean 1:16:34.600 --> 1:16:36.400 just to use an, example the guy who was the, 1:16:37.680 --> 1:16:40.880 producer he called when you're going to? Break he called 1:16:40.920 --> 1:16:44.400 that the Tees. Right, WELL i came FROM espn and 1:16:44.479 --> 1:16:47.280 the tees was at the beginning Of Sports. Center you, 1:16:47.280 --> 1:16:49.920 know Da dad coming up On Sports. Center that's the 1:16:50.000 --> 1:16:52.600 tees in my. World and so he'd, said you, know 1:16:52.680 --> 1:16:54.519 like teas to, break And i'm, thinking what in the 1:16:54.520 --> 1:16:57.360 world isn't talking? About you, know we're just all of 1:16:57.400 --> 1:17:00.840 these kind of logistical things that you think, about you, 1:17:00.840 --> 1:17:04.720 know where's the where's the wide shot? Camera how AM 1:17:04.720 --> 1:17:06.960 i what does the rundown look? Like all of these 1:17:07.000 --> 1:17:11.160 things that were so logistically challenging for a group of 1:17:11.160 --> 1:17:13.200 people that had never worked. Together And i've worked With 1:17:13.240 --> 1:17:17.160 DeNardo AT, espn hadn't worked With Howard, griffith so that was. 1:17:17.240 --> 1:17:20.040 New so everything that's going on there is, new AND 1:17:20.080 --> 1:17:22.719 i didn't think it really occurred to me until probably 1:17:22.840 --> 1:17:25.240 like the beginning of the fourth, quarter where you're, like you, 1:17:25.280 --> 1:17:28.880 Know michigan could really lose this beame and so that 1:17:28.960 --> 1:17:31.320 part of it is really strange THAT i don't, think 1:17:32.400 --> 1:17:34.760 more so than any Day i've ever been a part 1:17:34.800 --> 1:17:38.800 of in my, Career like the just kind of logistics 1:17:38.840 --> 1:17:41.040 of getting on the air and being on the air 1:17:41.080 --> 1:17:44.920 were so overriding on that day that until the, end 1:17:45.000 --> 1:17:47.519 it almost felt like the game that we were wrapping. 1:17:47.560 --> 1:17:52.400 Around almost in our mind fell, secondary but, CLEARLY i, 1:17:52.400 --> 1:17:56.880 mean it was a historic result and it was probably in, 1:17:57.000 --> 1:17:59.040 hindsight and there's been a lot of talk about this 1:17:59.080 --> 1:18:00.519 back and forth through the. 1:18:00.600 --> 1:18:03.519 Years but while it felt catastrophic at. 1:18:03.439 --> 1:18:06.160 The time because this was a team that was many 1:18:06.200 --> 1:18:08.640 people thought going to compete for a national championship In 1:18:08.720 --> 1:18:12.080 michigan and they lose To Appalachian, state it may have 1:18:12.200 --> 1:18:14.040 been a good thing for the network because we were 1:18:14.040 --> 1:18:17.240 fighting distribution battles at that. Point we weren't on the 1:18:17.280 --> 1:18:20.519 air on the major cable carriers throughout The. Midwest we 1:18:20.520 --> 1:18:23.200 were ON, DirecTV we were On Dish, network but we 1:18:23.200 --> 1:18:28.120 weren't On comcast and the big carriers that people. 1:18:27.840 --> 1:18:28.519 Get their cable. 1:18:28.560 --> 1:18:34.320 Through and part of the rhetoric against us in this battle, was, 1:18:34.320 --> 1:18:36.479 well they're not going to have any significant, games and 1:18:36.520 --> 1:18:38.280 then to have one of the most significant games in 1:18:38.280 --> 1:18:41.280 college football right out of the, GATE i think that 1:18:41.400 --> 1:18:43.720 kind of put that notion to rest a little bit 1:18:43.840 --> 1:18:45.080 and gave us a little bit of. 1:18:45.160 --> 1:18:48.320 Leverage so The Big Ten network is one of the 1:18:48.360 --> 1:18:52.639 most specific networks in terms of a sports network's, launch 1:18:52.840 --> 1:18:55.840 in what the network covers and it's just it's, regional it's. 1:18:55.920 --> 1:18:59.280 College whereas you have regional networks of course existing. Beforehand 1:18:59.320 --> 1:19:01.639 there's A yankees network that has existed for a, while 1:19:01.920 --> 1:19:04.720 but this is specific to just, college specific to just 1:19:04.760 --> 1:19:08.160 this one region that has since expanded, Obviously but what 1:19:08.280 --> 1:19:11.280 was the vision at the onset and now that there 1:19:11.320 --> 1:19:14.799 are more, networks both college conference networks and other sports 1:19:14.800 --> 1:19:18.160 networks across sort OF tv, galaxy what was the vision 1:19:18.200 --> 1:19:21.200 initially and how has that sort of evolved and become 1:19:21.560 --> 1:19:22.759 what it is today in twenty. 1:19:22.800 --> 1:19:27.120 Seventeen, WELL i think the vision was to really be 1:19:27.400 --> 1:19:28.120 a home. 1:19:28.080 --> 1:19:31.240 For Big ten, fans AND i didn't really understand the 1:19:31.320 --> 1:19:34.320 vision UNTIL i came out and interviewed with, them AND 1:19:34.560 --> 1:19:35.880 i kind of thought it was going to be an 1:19:35.920 --> 1:19:40.040 extension OF espn regional, television which you, know kind of 1:19:40.080 --> 1:19:42.640 syndicated The Big ten. GAMES i didn't really understand it 1:19:42.680 --> 1:19:45.160 was going to be the twenty four to seven. Networks 1:19:45.160 --> 1:19:47.000 so a lot of that was very eye opening to 1:19:47.040 --> 1:19:48.880 me WHEN i was with Ma chilverman as the president 1:19:48.920 --> 1:19:51.800 and Commissioner delaney and kind of understood that they saw 1:19:51.840 --> 1:19:53.960 this as a twenty four to, seven three and sixty 1:19:53.960 --> 1:19:59.479 five day year destination for the. LEAGUE i think that 1:19:59.560 --> 1:20:01.960 we all it felt like from the very beginning that 1:20:01.960 --> 1:20:05.400 if people were going elsewhere for their big ten news 1:20:05.479 --> 1:20:06.519 that we would be. 1:20:06.600 --> 1:20:08.280 Failing and so that we had to be. 1:20:08.360 --> 1:20:11.280 Honest that when a team wasn't playing, well you had 1:20:11.320 --> 1:20:13.240 to say they weren't playing. Well you, know this couldn't 1:20:13.280 --> 1:20:17.320 be like kind of state controlled media. Here you, know 1:20:17.479 --> 1:20:19.840 we had to give very we had to give honest. 1:20:19.880 --> 1:20:23.160 Opinions so AND i think that that has evolved through the. 1:20:23.240 --> 1:20:26.240 Years you, know there were obviously some really challenging. SITUATIONS 1:20:26.360 --> 1:20:29.080 i think the biggest, one no, doubt would be The 1:20:29.160 --> 1:20:32.080 Jerry sandusky scandal here In State college Where i'm sitting right, 1:20:32.120 --> 1:20:34.839 now and kind of how you handle that as a conference, 1:20:34.880 --> 1:20:37.000 Network AND i don't you, know if there's Anything i'd 1:20:37.040 --> 1:20:38.719 like to have, back it would probably be those first 1:20:38.720 --> 1:20:42.200 couple of days after that story, broke WHICH i didn't 1:20:42.240 --> 1:20:44.400 think we handled as well as we could. 1:20:44.400 --> 1:20:46.800 Have but by and, LARGE i think we've done a 1:20:46.840 --> 1:20:47.680 really good job of. 1:20:47.680 --> 1:20:50.439 IT i, Mean i'm really proud of kind of what we've. 1:20:50.479 --> 1:20:54.479 Become you, know the programming is really, good you, know the, 1:20:54.560 --> 1:20:57.080 JOURNEY i think is something to really be proud of 1:20:57.240 --> 1:21:01.760 and that's been a fabulous. Show we've had incredible. Continuity you, 1:21:01.800 --> 1:21:04.559 know you mentioned my. Call he's been there from the get. 1:21:04.600 --> 1:21:07.719 Go Rick pizo as, Well, Jerry, Donardo Howard, griffith our studio. 1:21:07.760 --> 1:21:10.840 ANALYSTS i, mean we've been a, team the three of 1:21:10.920 --> 1:21:14.640 us now going on our eleventh. Season so it's been 1:21:14.680 --> 1:21:17.599 a really good place to work with really good. PEOPLE 1:21:18.160 --> 1:21:21.000 i think a kind of an understanding that we were breaking, 1:21:21.040 --> 1:21:23.599 ground that we were the first to do, this and 1:21:24.080 --> 1:21:26.960 that there was no blueprint for, it and that was really. 1:21:27.000 --> 1:21:29.240 Exciting it could kind of be whatever you wanted it to. 1:21:29.280 --> 1:21:32.000 Be and has it been? Perfect you, KNOW i don't 1:21:32.040 --> 1:21:32.439 think it has. 1:21:32.520 --> 1:21:34.599 Been i've to be honest with yourself and say that 1:21:34.600 --> 1:21:36.960 that there have been the steps along the. Way but, 1:21:37.240 --> 1:21:39.840 Man i'm proud of what it's. BEEN i, MEAN i 1:21:39.880 --> 1:21:42.679 think it's a really really good, network and it's cool 1:21:42.800 --> 1:21:44.880 to go out and you, KNOW i do. 1:21:44.960 --> 1:21:45.800 PLAY i play for. 1:21:45.760 --> 1:21:49.720 Basketball, games and So i'm out on campus that time 1:21:49.800 --> 1:21:52.600 of year and certainly walking around town this time of 1:21:52.720 --> 1:21:54.759 year Where jerry And howard and now are during the preview, 1:21:54.800 --> 1:21:57.120 shows and to see the impact that we've had On 1:21:57.200 --> 1:21:59.360 big ten fans stand and how many people can't come 1:21:59.439 --> 1:22:01.840 up and say thank, you and how much they enjoy 1:22:01.920 --> 1:22:04.840 the shows and how it's changed their viewing. 1:22:04.880 --> 1:22:07.559 Habits it's. FUNNY i was speaking to someone the other. 1:22:07.600 --> 1:22:10.080 Day it's a Big big ten network, viewer AND i, 1:22:10.120 --> 1:22:12.160 said you, know we're working on these ten year anniversary, 1:22:12.160 --> 1:22:14.080 shows which we're going to be rolling out Starting august. 1:22:14.080 --> 1:22:17.360 Thirtieth we're going to look back on one year per 1:22:17.400 --> 1:22:21.000 week of The big Ten network, era kind of what 1:22:21.120 --> 1:22:22.960 was the two thousand and nine, Season, like we're gonna 1:22:22.960 --> 1:22:25.160 have a prelude show On august, thirtieth and then it'll 1:22:25.160 --> 1:22:27.120 be one show a. Week AND i was telling about. 1:22:27.160 --> 1:22:28.559 THAT i, said can you believe it's been ten? Years 1:22:28.600 --> 1:22:30.240 and he, SAID i can't believe it's only been ten 1:22:30.320 --> 1:22:32.439 years because it's such a huge part of my. Life 1:22:32.640 --> 1:22:35.240 where were those games? BEFORE i don't even remember what 1:22:35.280 --> 1:22:37.719 it was like before. That you guys are so integral 1:22:37.840 --> 1:22:41.040 to kind of my viewing. Habits and so that felt 1:22:41.080 --> 1:22:43.920 really good BECAUSE i think at the, beginning particularly that 1:22:43.960 --> 1:22:46.400 first year where people couldn't get the, network there was 1:22:46.439 --> 1:22:49.240 this feeling why are we doing this? Again and the 1:22:49.280 --> 1:22:51.719 fact that it's turned out to be such a big 1:22:51.760 --> 1:22:53.559 part of the lives Of big ten fans is really. 1:22:53.600 --> 1:22:55.080 Gratifying so if. 1:22:55.000 --> 1:22:58.360 You're put in charge or at least you have a 1:22:58.400 --> 1:23:02.360 sort of shifted role of like a development executive at 1:23:02.360 --> 1:23:04.680 The big ten network SAYING i really like how we 1:23:04.760 --> 1:23:07.720 DO x AND. Y i wish we would try MORE. 1:23:07.920 --> 1:23:10.559 Z i wish we would lean into doing more of. 1:23:10.680 --> 1:23:13.680 THIS i wish you, know there was a new version of. 1:23:13.960 --> 1:23:17.160 Blank when you look forward at the future of The 1:23:17.160 --> 1:23:21.000 big ten, network what do you hope is sort of 1:23:21.520 --> 1:23:23.599 more of a thing within The big Ten. 1:23:23.640 --> 1:23:28.160 Network, well i'd say the big Thing dan is and 1:23:28.240 --> 1:23:31.800 we started this last year and it was, successful BUT 1:23:31.840 --> 1:23:34.760 i want to see more of. It IS i think 1:23:34.800 --> 1:23:38.120 that we need to be out among the fans more. 1:23:39.040 --> 1:23:40.519 So in other. 1:23:40.400 --> 1:23:43.280 WORDS i wanted this network from the very outset to 1:23:43.320 --> 1:23:46.320 be the network of the. Fans we wanted them to 1:23:46.360 --> 1:23:49.040 feel real ownership in, this and then we understand their 1:23:49.040 --> 1:23:52.559 schools and represent their. Schools we have such a limited 1:23:52.640 --> 1:23:55.880 universe and as fourteen, teams AND i do believe that 1:23:55.920 --> 1:23:57.960 we know those teams better than anyone. Else AND i 1:23:57.960 --> 1:24:02.400 don't say that to you, know be negative about anyone. 1:24:02.400 --> 1:24:04.880 ELSE i say it just because we better know them. 1:24:04.720 --> 1:24:05.400 Better than anyone. 1:24:05.439 --> 1:24:08.800 Else otherwise we're failing miserably in our, jobs right, so 1:24:09.320 --> 1:24:11.439 AND i think that we want to bring that to 1:24:11.560 --> 1:24:12.439 the fans a little bit. 1:24:12.479 --> 1:24:12.639 More. 1:24:12.680 --> 1:24:16.120 So we started last YEAR bt and tailgate show with 1:24:16.200 --> 1:24:18.920 myself And Spice adams and Coach. Tonardo we're Adding Stanley 1:24:19.000 --> 1:24:21.920 jackson this year an on campus pregame. Show you, know, 1:24:22.000 --> 1:24:23.760 clearly we're not the first to think of this. 1:24:23.880 --> 1:24:25.920 Idea we had done a. 1:24:25.880 --> 1:24:28.720 Few through the years where we might go on a 1:24:28.760 --> 1:24:31.599 one off type deal to do our pregame show on 1:24:31.640 --> 1:24:33.600 campus if it was a really big, day you, know 1:24:33.640 --> 1:24:36.680 a big, game maybe a game THAT btn, had but 1:24:36.760 --> 1:24:39.519 now doing it weekly during conference. Seasons so we started 1:24:39.520 --> 1:24:41.240 that last. YEAR i think we might do it a 1:24:41.280 --> 1:24:44.000 little more with basketball this. Year that's the big thing to. 1:24:44.040 --> 1:24:46.160 Me how do we interact with the. Fans how do 1:24:46.240 --> 1:24:48.519 we kind of touch the fan. BASE i mean maybe 1:24:48.520 --> 1:24:51.080 not literally touch, them but kind of, metaphorically you, know be, 1:24:51.200 --> 1:24:54.639 there you, know really close and let them EXPERIENCE btn 1:24:54.680 --> 1:24:57.400 and again make it feel like it is more of 1:24:57.439 --> 1:25:00.400 air network because that's that's what we want on it to. 1:25:00.439 --> 1:25:02.840 Be SO i think that's a big thing And the 1:25:02.880 --> 1:25:05.759 great thing about it is THAT i do get voice 1:25:05.840 --> 1:25:08.160 in that THAT i am a part of kind of 1:25:08.320 --> 1:25:11.200 helping to make those decisions or at least adding input 1:25:11.280 --> 1:25:15.720 into those. Decisions and that's been incredibly gratifying that you know. That, 1:25:15.840 --> 1:25:18.519 AGAIN i was eleven years OF. ESPN i LOVED, espn 1:25:19.439 --> 1:25:23.480 and by its very, nature by the vastness of, it 1:25:23.479 --> 1:25:25.600 it's hard to kind of impact. It and SO i 1:25:25.600 --> 1:25:27.600 don't mean that in any kind of a negative way that, 1:25:27.640 --> 1:25:29.160 WELL i didn't have this voice there AND i should 1:25:29.160 --> 1:25:30.759 have had this. Voice, no you, know and the little 1:25:30.760 --> 1:25:33.479 THINGS i worked on college game day radio or whatever 1:25:33.520 --> 1:25:36.880 it was that were my, domainsay but you didn't have 1:25:36.960 --> 1:25:39.080 to say into the broader. Network just by the very 1:25:39.160 --> 1:25:41.200 virtue of how large it, was no one had that 1:25:41.320 --> 1:25:43.840 kind of say no on air guy did HERE i 1:25:43.880 --> 1:25:48.439 Do and that has been really really.
