We talked about Dwayne Haskins, their 11 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:28,360 Speaker 1: two wide receivers, UH, their defensive tackle coming out, their 12 00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:30,280 Speaker 1: offensive tackles coming out. We touched at all the Ohio 13 00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:34,000 Speaker 1: state process, basically their whole roster with Bill at twelve thirty. 14 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:36,760 Speaker 1: It's honestly a lighter Ohio State group than usually is, 15 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,640 Speaker 1: especially on defense. But I we'll have that at twelve thirty. 16 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:41,920 Speaker 1: But between now and then, we'll take your calls at 17 00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:44,880 Speaker 1: two one, five, one three and your tweets at hashtag 18 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 1: Giants Chat. Make sure you get on the horn and 19 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:50,279 Speaker 1: we'll get to you quickly. But Paul news that I 20 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:54,360 Speaker 1: was surprised by yesterday. I did not think the NFL 21 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 1: was going to make the move on replay that they 22 00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 1: made in regards to offensive and defensive pass and the 23 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 1: Irans And for those of you that might have missed it, 24 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 1: the NFL will now allow teams, as per normal challenge rules, 25 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:13,480 Speaker 1: to challenge offensive and defensive pass interference penalties that are 26 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:19,040 Speaker 1: called and are not called at the time the play 27 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:23,199 Speaker 1: takes place on the field. My understanding is that Sean 28 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:25,399 Speaker 1: Payton kind of banged the table for this a little 29 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 1: bit in the meeting. Obviously you'll understand why after what 30 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:30,559 Speaker 1: happened with the Saints game in the playoffs last year. 31 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick has always been an advocate of replaying everything, 32 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: so I'm sure he was in favor of it as well. 33 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 1: But for a group that is usually pretty conservative, they 34 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 1: actually are now ahead of college football in the realm 35 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 1: of challenging pass interference calls. So, Paul, what was your 36 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 1: general reaction to this. I was surprised, as you were, 37 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 1: because most of the time, uh, the league tends to 38 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 1: be ultra conservative in making these types of moves. I've 39 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: in favor of it. I've been in favor of the 40 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 1: sky Judge for actually more than a couple of years. See, 41 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 1: I like the sky Judge idea better than this one. 42 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 1: I do too, but I'll accept this one because at 43 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 1: least it's a move to improve the situation. I think 44 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 1: the sky Judge would be better, but I can't have everything, 45 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 1: and at least they did something to make the game better. 46 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 1: I will say this. And this is where it gets 47 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 1: really tricky, John, I don't know how many of the 48 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 1: conversations went back and forth in terms of I think 49 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:35,080 Speaker 1: it was only one bad vote, right Cincinnati said no. Honestly, 50 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 1: I didn't see the final vote total. I think vote 51 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 1: on all these all the time. I think there was 52 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: only one no vote. Really, if I saw that the 53 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 1: tabulation is correct. Well, a lot of times the big 54 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 1: moves like this, the lead likes to be as unanimous 55 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: as possible. So um, I don't know how much give 56 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: and take there was. I don't know how many naysayers 57 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 1: were then converted. Be that as it may. I suspect 58 00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: one of the topics of conversation or okay, coach says flag. 59 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 1: I think that was past interference, a challenge go up 60 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 1: to the booth. Now we go up and we asked 61 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: the guy upstairs, and he's looking at it and he says, 62 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 1: you know, I see contact, But how much is too much? 63 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: That's the trick? How how much is incidental contact? Because 64 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: you know what I saw one guy gave a forearm 65 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: and the other guy gave a tug on the jersey. 66 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 1: And what exactly defines the penalty? Well, how about this? 67 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 1: What happens that if they go to it and they say, huh, 68 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: we think they were offsetting penalties, and then you replay 69 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 1: the damn what if they go back in this hell, 70 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 1: I saw offensive and defensive passing difference, then you replay 71 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 1: the dawn and then oh my goodness, I and what 72 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: do we always hear from the league every time somebody 73 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: proposes a change unintended consequences? That's what we hear. And 74 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: so what we're now going to have is a Pandora's 75 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: box of stickiness as to specifically, how is that video 76 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 1: replay official going to delineate between what truly is enough 77 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:22,840 Speaker 1: contact for interference, what is enough contact not to be interference, 78 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 1: and what is gonna be both guys did a little 79 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,279 Speaker 1: bit of stuff here. I would kind of like to 80 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 1: say no harm, no foul, and blow it off. What 81 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: do you do, I'll throw it another thing into the mix. 82 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,600 Speaker 1: And Warren Sharpe, who we had on last year, while 83 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: I'm on again in the off season once we get 84 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 1: past o t s and stuff like that, Paul and 85 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 1: he spoke about hell Mary's traditionally speaking, they let teams 86 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: do more or less whatever the hell they want. Harry passes, 87 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: second degree assault, knockdown, grabbed, whatever, and they never throw 88 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: the flag on anything. So it's gonna stop a team 89 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 1: now when if you're down a touchdown, just start chucking 90 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 1: it deep late in the game and go to the 91 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:08,159 Speaker 1: end zone and pray that they go to review and 92 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 1: find a pass interference penalty. It's always been my opinion 93 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 1: that there was more contact on hill Mary passes than 94 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: there would be in a college lacrosse game, and nobody 95 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 1: ever says a thing about it, because well, it's just 96 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,359 Speaker 1: a gentleman's thing. We we we allow those plays to 97 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: just go and see what happens. Well, it reminds me 98 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: of the n b A when it looks like maybe 99 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: there wasn't over the back, but the ball goes out 100 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 1: of bounds. They didn't call the foul. They just give 101 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:34,840 Speaker 1: it to the other team because they don't want to 102 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: call the foul. It's the same type of deal. Yeah, 103 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,679 Speaker 1: or or by the way, and Niket, that gets screwed 104 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,720 Speaker 1: up because when you go to replay in the NBA 105 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: in the final two minutes and you go to the replay, Oh, boy, 106 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: that guy went over the back. He killed the guy. 107 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: Oh but the other guy hit the ball. Well, we 108 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 1: can't change. We can't add the foul, but we can 109 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 1: do the out of bounds and then the team that 110 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 1: committed the foul gets away with murder. Kind of like 111 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 1: when Charles Smith was fouled three times by the Bulls 112 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 1: in that Garden playoff game, Aim and they just ate 113 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 1: the whistle because the ball got knocked out of bounds 114 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,600 Speaker 1: and they didn't care. I'm so happy, Lances here and 115 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 1: Lances in here, and you are, yes, absolutely correct, no 116 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:10,600 Speaker 1: doubt about it, no, no doubt about it. Absolutely correct. 117 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 1: But in any event, Um, I did see a comment 118 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 1: that was made addressing that issue. You did, Okay, I did. 119 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: And And here's what's scary, John, the comment and I 120 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 1: cannot remember who was quoted. The comment was made. The 121 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 1: coaches will understand the spirit of the world. No, they're not. 122 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 1: They will not and they will not challenge the hail Mary. 123 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:39,839 Speaker 1: That is a load of crap. That is not That 124 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 1: is not true at all. Do you know why coach 125 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 1: is gonna be sitting there on the sideline and that 126 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 1: game in front of them at that very moment is 127 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: the most important thing in the world to them. So 128 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: these coaches are playing for their jobs. Yes, So then 129 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 1: how do you what is the official or in the 130 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,040 Speaker 1: booth or New York are the official on the field 131 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 1: supposed to do? And oh, by the way, that's pass interference, 132 00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 1: but intu the hal Mary, I'm not gonna call it. 133 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 1: And and do you know the kind of grief that 134 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 1: that coach is going to get from the media and 135 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 1: the fans if he doesn't ask for the review. That's 136 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 1: even better point. It's better point. He's going to get crucified. 137 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: Oh obviously, why why didn't get notified? Well, in the 138 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 1: spirit of the rule, you know, we're not really supposed 139 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: to do it, in the spirit of the rule. That's 140 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: gonna go over real. Well, So here we go, by 141 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 1: the way, I pulled up just so we have and 142 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: then and then we'll get to your calls. And I'm 143 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: gonna read these as quickly as possible, But surprisingly the 144 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 1: NFL rule book a little complicated. So page this is 145 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: the two thousand seventeen rule book. I don't think the 146 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 1: pass interference rules changed from seven into eighteen. No, I 147 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 1: didn't hear any adjustments on the wording, and don't I 148 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 1: don't have the eighteen rule book in PDF form of 149 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 1: my computer, So I'm looking at the two thousand seventeen 150 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 1: playing rule book. Okay, do you want to know what 151 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 1: the league definition of pass interferences because this is what 152 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 1: they're gonna use to decide whether or not they have 153 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 1: called on replay go ahead. It is pass interference by 154 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 1: either team when any act by a player more than 155 00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 1: one yard beyond the line of scrimmage signific againly hinders 156 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: an eligible player's opportunity to catch the ball, significantly hinders. 157 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 1: That's the key phrase there. Pass interference could only occur 158 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,480 Speaker 1: when a Ford passes thrown from behind the line of scrimmage, 159 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: regardless of whether the pass is legal or legal. Blah 160 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah blah blah. Um. Here we go. 161 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 1: Prohibited acts by both teams while the ball is in 162 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 1: the air, contact by a player who is not playing 163 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: the ball that restricts the opponent's opportunity to make the catch. 164 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 1: That's pretty easy. If you're looking back at the ball, 165 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 1: you're allowed a lot of latitude and what you can do. 166 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 1: That's what that means. Playing through the back of an 167 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,680 Speaker 1: opponent in an attempt to make a play on the ball, 168 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 1: reaching over somebody, hang them in the back before you 169 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 1: get to the football. Kind of easy. Grabbing an opponent's 170 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:45,199 Speaker 1: arm in such a manner that restricts his opportunity to 171 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 1: catch a pass. That gets a little sticky because there's 172 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 1: a lot of hand fighting that goes on. Extending arm 173 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: across the body of an opponent, thus restricting his ability 174 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 1: to catch a pass. And regardless of whether the player 175 00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 1: committing such an act is playing the ball waiting out. 176 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 1: So if you're looking back at the ball, you still 177 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 1: can't put the arm at Now, it's only get a 178 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 1: little complicated, right cutting off the path at an opponent 179 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 1: by making contact with him without playing the ball. So again, 180 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:12,319 Speaker 1: if you're looking at the ball, you can come the 181 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: relatively easy to correct Hooking an opponent in an attempt 182 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 1: to get to the ball in such a manner that 183 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 1: it causes the opponent's body to turn prior to the 184 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 1: ball arriving, and initiating contact with an opponent by shoving 185 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 1: or pushing off, thus creating separation. Noticed, by the way, 186 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:29,840 Speaker 1: the first seven are all defensive, and there's only one 187 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 1: in there for offensive. Very very interesting, and a team 188 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 1: that totally stresses offense. What a surprise. Real quick. These 189 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 1: are the acts that are permitted by the rules and 190 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 1: also in the rule book, by the way, before you 191 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 1: get to that article, let's not forget there are some 192 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 1: receivers who are really good at Academy Award performances, and 193 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 1: they will draw passing interferance calls very very well. Now 194 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 1: here's what you're allowed to do by both teams, and 195 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 1: this is where it gets tricky. This is allowed now 196 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 1: incidental contact, which is itself a loaded turn by an 197 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:07,680 Speaker 1: opponent's hands, arms, or body when both players are competing 198 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 1: for the ball, or neither player is looking for the ball, 199 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:12,599 Speaker 1: neither player is looking for the ball. If there is 200 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 1: any question whether contact is incidental, the ruling shall be 201 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:20,839 Speaker 1: no interference. That not now all of a sudden, it's tricky, right, 202 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 1: inadvertent tangling of the feat when both players are playing 203 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:27,839 Speaker 1: the ball or neither players playing the ball contact that 204 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: would normally be considered pass interference. But the past is 205 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: clearly and catchable. Okay, you know that's actually interesting. Are 206 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:36,840 Speaker 1: they gonna be able to go to replay and rule 207 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 1: the balls uncatchable? I did not hear that specific angle 208 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: addressed in the It's involved in pass interference, right, Why 209 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 1: wouldn't it be part of the role? I think it's 210 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 1: gonna have to be laying a hand on an opponent 211 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,199 Speaker 1: that does not restrict him in an attempt to make 212 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: a play on the ball. So you're a lot to 213 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 1: do this those it doesn't restrict you, of course, what's restricting. 214 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 1: And then contact by a player who has gained position 215 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 1: on an opponent in an attempt to catch the ball. So, 216 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: and by the way, notes when the balls in the air, 217 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: offensive and defensive receivers have the same right to the 218 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 1: path of the ball and are subject to the same 219 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 1: restrictions acts that do not occur more than one yard 220 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: but on a scrimmage or not pass interference. Um, and 221 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:21,679 Speaker 1: there you go. So that's what you have. There is 222 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,440 Speaker 1: a lot of stickiness here, and we've now gone through 223 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,679 Speaker 1: the areas that could be really really problematic. Can I 224 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 1: give you one more that's problematic because I just saw 225 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,199 Speaker 1: it here. You know what else is considered offensive pass interference? 226 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 1: Offensive go ahead pick place? Yes, that's right, so that 227 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: can be reviewed. Now if you go back. I think 228 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 1: it was at the end of the Rams Saints game 229 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 1: people talk about that pass interference penalty, right, yeah, that 230 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: was obvious. Well did you know that the Rams had 231 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 1: an obvious pick player on four yards down the field 232 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,080 Speaker 1: a couple of plays earlier they gave them about thirty yards. 233 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: That's coming back to there's no question the the rub route, 234 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 1: which of course is truly an illegal pick play, is 235 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 1: one that if it's more than one year beyond the 236 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage, which is often used, and believe it 237 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 1: or not, it's called in a very haphazard fashion. Extremely 238 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 1: happy and for those of us who do take the 239 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:18,840 Speaker 1: games and do watch the games back, we will see 240 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: I don't want to say how many how many you 241 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: see a game, but it is not unusual more than 242 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 1: to see three or four in a game, And as 243 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,680 Speaker 1: you're watching it back, you're like, oh, yeah, that was 244 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 1: a pick that wasn't called. Yeah, we get it, because 245 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 1: they usually don't call it anyway, and then all of 246 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 1: a sudden the following week, boom, somebody gets called for one. 247 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 1: It's it's it's a very inconsistent call. But now you're right, John, Technically, 248 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 1: by the wording of the rule, that would have to 249 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 1: come under replay review. Now, could you see some coach 250 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 1: throwing it on a pit play that's inside the ten 251 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 1: yard line which obviously resulted in a touch down saying 252 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 1: oh no, no, no flag, replay, pick play, call it 253 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:05,560 Speaker 1: off the board. And by the way, that doesn't have 254 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 1: to be to a targetive receiver. If that doesn't have 255 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 1: to be that, the ball doesn't have to go to 256 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 1: that guy. Correct If that Rubbrian happens on the other 257 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 1: side of the field, still offensive PAS interference. So this, this, 258 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 1: this is gonna be a real can of worms. Now again, 259 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 1: having said it, having said all of that stuff, I 260 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 1: love the fact that we can try to correct what 261 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 1: happened in the Saints playoff game, because that was just abysmal. 262 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 1: And when everybody in the world, in fact, even the 263 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:35,840 Speaker 1: people on Mars watching via satellite, I understand, complained about 264 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 1: that call that did not get flagged when the Saints 265 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 1: were interfered with, I get it if everyone in their mother, 266 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 1: even the dogs down the street, were barking loud after 267 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 1: that call. They knew what it was. The reality is 268 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,959 Speaker 1: the reality, and there's gotta be a mechanism to fix that. 269 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 1: The problem is this mechanism leaves so much muddy area 270 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:02,679 Speaker 1: that you're you're gonna get dirty. See. I like having 271 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:04,959 Speaker 1: the sky judge because they can call that penalty immediately. 272 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: That's my I wanted. And now the good thing is 273 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,200 Speaker 1: that it's not gonna lengthen games as much as people 274 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:11,080 Speaker 1: think because it's still within the challenge system. You can 275 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 1: only have three per game. Now, I would argue, now, 276 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 1: if you get all three, if you get all three 277 00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 1: challenges right, you should keep getting new challenges because if 278 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 1: you keep getting them right, why are you being punished 279 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 1: for this? You know what I mean. But beyond that, 280 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 1: I feel like this is gonna rob a lot of 281 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 1: drama Paul out of the ends of these games, because 282 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 1: you're gonna have either a game winning touchdown or a 283 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 1: game winning stop and everyone's gonna be like, I can't 284 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 1: get happier celebrate yet because I have to wait to 285 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 1: see if the review and every play is reviewed in 286 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 1: the final two minutes right, whether or not pass interference 287 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 1: is gonna get called retroactively or get taken off the board. 288 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 1: So to me, I think it's I think it's gonna 289 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 1: rob a lot of the enjoyment out of the final 290 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 1: two minutes of these games. Half the time you gonna 291 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 1: waiting are they gonna review? Are they gonna review? Are 292 00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 1: they gonna review it? You can have teams running to 293 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage to try to avoid those reviews, 294 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 1: and that I don't That's the thing I really dislike 295 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 1: about this. I don't like it being automatically reviewed in 296 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:07,480 Speaker 1: the final two minutes. I still think it should only 297 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 1: be challengeable in the final two minutes because I think 298 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 1: they should only be used in the most egregious of situation. 299 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 1: And yes, if you could clean this up somehow, that's 300 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,360 Speaker 1: where I would like to see it go to. The 301 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 1: problem is, again, how do you define the most egregious 302 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 1: of situations? Now the one? Will you do it by 303 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 1: limiting the amount of times you can review? So that 304 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 1: means teams will probably be limit when they throw the 305 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 1: flag because they don't want to miss the game affecting place. So, 306 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 1: in other words, in the final and and our our 307 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 1: example about the hail mary before is actually inaccurate because 308 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 1: in the final two minutes it's only the official upstairs 309 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 1: that gets to review it. You don't get to throw 310 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 1: the flag. But the play is still technically it is reviewable. 311 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 1: But yeah, I did that. The coach would not throw. 312 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: The coach can't throw the can't the coach can't throw 313 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 1: the hail mary. Right, good point about that, So let 314 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: me pull that back. We were getting a little over 315 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: zealous in our in our stickiness. So though the point 316 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 1: with them being reviewed is still accurate. Well yes, because 317 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 1: think about this now. On on every hail mary play, 318 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 1: when you have probably a mass of five bodies maybe 319 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 1: going okay there, there is going to clearly be contact. 320 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 1: Uh And for those of you who want to say, well, 321 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,160 Speaker 1: we'll just call that incidental contact because it's incidental to 322 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 1: the play. When you have that many bodies together, they're 323 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 1: gonna have to bang. Okay. But here's the problem. Not 324 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 1: only you guys contacting each other in a hall merry 325 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 1: defensive mode. There's clutching and grabbing. Trust me, there are 326 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 1: holding There are holding penalties, and that's the other thing. 327 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 1: That's the other thing. Now, what about defensive holding. No. 328 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 1: Many times, many times people will get confused between defensive 329 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 1: holding downfield when a defensive back the balls to be 330 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 1: in the air were balls in the air. A defensive 331 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: hold is passing the field. Correct. Correct, And you have 332 00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 1: to delineate that because there's gonna be a lot of 333 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 1: fans who may not understand that legal contact and defensive 334 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,840 Speaker 1: holding is not revealable. It's not and and it's a 335 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 1: completely separate penalty. But to some fans, they won't understand that, 336 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,680 Speaker 1: and they'll see somebody going down field fifteen yards down 337 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:19,160 Speaker 1: field getting a jersey tugged, and they gotta remember, we'll 338 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 1: wait a minute now, bold and go in the air. 339 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,880 Speaker 1: Yet it's defensive holding that doesn't come under review. All 340 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 1: My team got got jobbed because it wasn't called. We 341 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,119 Speaker 1: can't review that, correct, all right. I want to get 342 00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 1: to the calls here, Paul. We've we've we've gotten this 343 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 1: long enough, so let's let's get to them, guys. I 344 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 1: want to get as many unit as I can before 345 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:37,200 Speaker 1: it's all thirty. But then we'll have our guests and 346 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:38,680 Speaker 1: that will wrap up our show. So I'm gonna try 347 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:40,400 Speaker 1: to go through you quickly, maybe We'll try to get 348 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:42,359 Speaker 1: more than four if we can. Let's start with the 349 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 1: guy who called in first, and that's Mike and Long Island. Mike, 350 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 1: what's up, Hi, Good morning, guys. Just a quick one. 351 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 1: I watched Daniel Jones yesterday and now I'm totally confused. 352 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,120 Speaker 1: The guy, uh, you know, and I know it's all 353 00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 1: scripted and whatnot. The guy did a wonderful job. Everyone 354 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: does a wonderful job on their projet. Every it's a 355 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 1: it's a tainted grade. It really is. Honestly, Mike, I 356 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 1: barely watch these guys throw on their pro day because 357 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't get anything out of it. Yeah, 358 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 1: but you know what. To me, he has so many 359 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 1: resemblances to Peyton Manning. It's it's just unbelievable. Well, he's 360 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 1: the pseudo fourth Manning brother. He really is. He really 361 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:33,440 Speaker 1: is in so many ways matterisms, body type, are speech, hair, 362 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 1: everything about this guy, his attitude, his work, ethic. He 363 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 1: is the pseudo fourth Manning. I I swear it's true. 364 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 1: I'm not at the question though. Is he as talented 365 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 1: as doesn't doesn't have to, doesn't have to deep arm 366 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:52,240 Speaker 1: strength yesterday, it's it's good enough. But it's not it's 367 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,640 Speaker 1: not what you would consider a strong level. I don't 368 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 1: think he's as accurate as other two men, not especially 369 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:01,399 Speaker 1: not on the deep ball. Yeah, but so so you know, 370 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:04,280 Speaker 1: so now I'm confused because you know, I sort of 371 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 1: like them, you know, and don't think about is the 372 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:13,480 Speaker 1: number six pick? Um? Before I saw Daniel Jones yesterday, 373 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 1: I said, no quarterback, forget it. Um, we'll wait till 374 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 1: next year. Um. But if we wanted to wait till 375 00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:24,120 Speaker 1: next year, because I'm also a k A draft capital 376 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 1: mike okay, um I um, I was thinking about trading 377 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:35,879 Speaker 1: the six pick for someone's next year's first, and the 378 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 1: second and third for this year. So this way, you know, 379 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 1: we're kind of going going in the between, which is 380 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 1: not probably a good thing. So we have capital for 381 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 1: next year to try to get a quarterback, and then 382 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:52,439 Speaker 1: we also get more picks this year, uh, you know, 383 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 1: to get what we need. We need so much it's ridiculous. Yeah. 384 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't know if I want to drop 385 00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:58,679 Speaker 1: all the way and thanks for the call, we appreciate it. 386 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 1: I don't want to drop all way out of the 387 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 1: first round to pick up a first round pick next year. 388 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 1: And at two and at three, I would rather since 389 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 1: they have the seventeen. That's why he's so he's saying 390 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:09,359 Speaker 1: that I still don't want to do it. I'm not 391 00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 1: doing anything. I'll out as long as I'm staying in 392 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:14,400 Speaker 1: the top fourteen or so. I'll go down to thirteen. 393 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 1: If I'm picking up a one next year to go 394 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 1: from six to thirteen, sign me up? Where do I sign? 395 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 1: I'm doing it. But again, that deal, first of all, 396 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 1: has to be available. A team has to be willing 397 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:26,119 Speaker 1: to make that deal, and Gettleman has to believe that 398 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,119 Speaker 1: the player is getting a thirteen isn't that much different 399 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 1: than the player he's getting it six, which, frankly, I'm 400 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 1: not sure there's gonna be that big of a difference 401 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:35,200 Speaker 1: in my humble opinion, but maybe Dave thinks differently. Yeah, 402 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:38,200 Speaker 1: I would mind moving down a few spots. I don't 403 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,199 Speaker 1: know that i'd go down further than ten, to be 404 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 1: honest with you, but there are clearly too many dominant 405 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:47,400 Speaker 1: pass rushing prospects that you would want to dip below 406 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 1: sea level on that situation. If they say that the 407 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 1: dominant pass rushers are gonna come off the board at eight, 408 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 1: then you can't go beyond that because you've gotta you 409 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 1: gotta pick one of those guys. Based on what I'm hearing, 410 00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 1: pulling fairly confident your boy, Cleveland Farrell will be around. 411 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,680 Speaker 1: I think so too. I think so too. Down he's 412 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:08,200 Speaker 1: your guy. Well, actually I haven't pronounced him my guy. 413 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:11,160 Speaker 1: I like him a lot. If you would considering him 414 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 1: at six. At thirteen, you should be doing cartwheels. I understand. 415 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:17,919 Speaker 1: I have not decided. I have not proclaimed who my 416 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,440 Speaker 1: pick would be at six year, but Farrell is a 417 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: is a guy who definitely got my attention. Montes Sweat 418 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: has my attention as well. Um, those will be the 419 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,199 Speaker 1: two guys more than anybody. And then and then Joan Taylor, 420 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:33,640 Speaker 1: the Florida tackle, is the other gentleman. Right now, those 421 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 1: are the three guys that I've narrowed it down to 422 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:41,239 Speaker 1: from my pike at six, assuming that Bossa, Allen and 423 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 1: Williams will be gone, that's the top tier. And once 424 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 1: past that, I think it's a bit of a mess. 425 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 1: So I don't know who my six guy is either 426 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 1: at this point. At six Scott New Mexico, and the 427 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 1: rule changes online too, what's up, Scott, Hi guys. I 428 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 1: happen to agree with both of you. This is almost 429 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 1: an imbecilic rule because you can't legislate on a hill. 430 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 1: May test this past interference on every helm Mary pest 431 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 1: I've ever seen. Well, you don't want those scott before 432 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,160 Speaker 1: we go anywhere, real quick. We talked about this with 433 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 1: the helmet to helmet situations on goal lines and then 434 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 1: and then, and they never called it, and they just decided, well, 435 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: we're just not going to call it, which by the 436 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,680 Speaker 1: letter of the law they have to call it, but 437 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,640 Speaker 1: they decided in the quote spirit of the rule, they're 438 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 1: not going to do it. Okay. My whole thing is 439 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 1: when the original committee voted, I think it was for 440 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,159 Speaker 1: to four on the rule, and then all of a 441 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 1: sudden became eight to zero. My question really is do 442 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 1: UH franchises put pressure on other franchises that the rule 443 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:38,639 Speaker 1: has to be changed pus. Obviously this is a result 444 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,239 Speaker 1: of the New Orleans game, and I was wondering if 445 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 1: they have more of a say in the committee meetings 446 00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:47,720 Speaker 1: and so forth to regulate as opposed to another team, 447 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: because you know, how do you get from four to 448 00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 1: four to eight to zero? And that's what I was 449 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 1: queering you guys on teams. Do teams do lobby other 450 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 1: tea to see their point of view, But whether or 451 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 1: not you know it actually has major impact. I quite 452 00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:05,159 Speaker 1: frankly just think the embarrassment of what happened in that 453 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 1: playoff game was probably the biggest impact. And it was 454 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 1: an embarrassment. I mean, it was terrible. The league has 455 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:11,920 Speaker 1: said that, I mean they know there's a reason they're 456 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: changing the rule. No one wants to see that. You want, look, 457 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:16,919 Speaker 1: these teams work so hard over the course there. You 458 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:18,919 Speaker 1: want the two teams out of the best teams that 459 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 1: are the most deserving teams that go to the super 460 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:22,960 Speaker 1: Bowl to be in the Super Bowl, and the Saints 461 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 1: were the look. And you can argue whether or not 462 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 1: they screwed up on the first down play after the 463 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 1: past interference and then you know, going back the other 464 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:32,119 Speaker 1: way trying to waste clock, that's fine, but that mistake 465 00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:34,919 Speaker 1: doesn't matter if they don't call that, if they call 466 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:39,080 Speaker 1: the past interference call. So to me, I can't look, 467 00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:41,639 Speaker 1: they screwed up. Now, it was a big screw up. 468 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 1: We did leave off a footnote here. This is a 469 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,920 Speaker 1: one year change. That's a good point, and the league 470 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 1: will then revisit it again. So if all this stickiness 471 00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 1: that we just talked about comes through fruition and creates 472 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:57,160 Speaker 1: more of a mess, suffice it to say, then fl 473 00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 1: will definitely make an adjustment next spring. Two A, one four, 474 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 1: five one three. Let's go back to the phones and 475 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:06,959 Speaker 1: say what's up? All right, Charlie, we'll go to your 476 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 1: next what's up? Pal? Hey? Look, most of the pass 477 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 1: interference on the hail Mary is usually by the offensive player. 478 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 1: If you really look at it, they're the ones that 479 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:20,959 Speaker 1: are trying to get position, and they're pushing off like crazy. 480 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:24,359 Speaker 1: There there is a massive bodies and everybody is pushing 481 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 1: and shoving and grabbing and clutching. And if you really 482 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 1: think that you can delineate who's more to blame than, 483 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,960 Speaker 1: then you've got better eyes than most people. Well I 484 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 1: think I do. Okay, good for you, Charlie, if we 485 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 1: know you can pick out offensive lineman, Go ahead, Charlie. 486 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 1: Hey the other you think I was gonna talk about, Look, 487 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 1: the whole point is just to get it right. So yeah, 488 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 1: right then that that that is a good rule change. 489 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:54,440 Speaker 1: And there was a couple other things I read they 490 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:59,360 Speaker 1: were going to loosen up the roster situation, uh for 491 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 1: I think the preseason or for some games, or are 492 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 1: they going to add players? Do you know what they're 493 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:09,200 Speaker 1: talking about? At one point there was some conversation I believe, 494 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 1: about allowing more guys to dress on Sundays or on 495 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,200 Speaker 1: game day, if you will. I don't know how far 496 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:19,120 Speaker 1: that's gotten. We don't We don't have a correspondent out 497 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 1: there at the league meetings that we can we can 498 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,399 Speaker 1: have them on the program to discuss those kinds of things. 499 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 1: I do think that was a topic. I did not 500 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,120 Speaker 1: see anything definitive coming out of it. Well, I read 501 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 1: something that they they changed some articles in the in 502 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 1: their by rules, and but it didn't really specify what 503 00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,199 Speaker 1: the actual changes were. But it had something to do 504 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 1: with the rosters. So something has been changed and approved, 505 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 1: but I just don't know what it is. All right, 506 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:48,719 Speaker 1: Hold on a second, Charlie. Here I am. I'm in 507 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 1: the NFL's media website that we have access to to 508 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 1: see if there's anything in there. I don't think anything's 509 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 1: official on that yet, right, Well, it does say approved 510 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 1: playing rules for two housand nineteen, so there might be 511 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 1: something in here. Like I'm stalling here, John, start talking 512 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 1: a little bit when I try while I try to 513 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,360 Speaker 1: get this called up. Yeah, I mean I don't think 514 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 1: the first far as I understand, Charlie, the only thing 515 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:15,639 Speaker 1: that's become official official is the offensive defensive path. Here 516 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:17,439 Speaker 1: we go. It's rules. I have not seen anything else yet, 517 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 1: but maybe Paul does, all right. Competition Committee permanent kickoff 518 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 1: rule changes that were implemented last year expands protection of 519 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 1: a defenseless player, enforcement of double fouls when there's a 520 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 1: change of possession, simplifying the application of scrimmage kick rules 521 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:35,600 Speaker 1: for missed field goals. I don't see anything in the 522 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:42,400 Speaker 1: by laws. Probably if it's roster okay, okay, to provide 523 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:47,399 Speaker 1: clubs with more roster flexibility during training camp, but it 524 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 1: does not indicate anything specific. And to liberalize the rules 525 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 1: for waiver processes too, well, it's a long document. This 526 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 1: is the summer. You don't have to go down to 527 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:57,879 Speaker 1: the actual change. Take a little bit, Joy, Joy, We're 528 00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 1: gonna check. I gotta get one more calling and Paul 529 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 1: finds it. I'll go to the next caller and then 530 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 1: Paul will give it to you before we get to 531 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 1: our guests. Thank you appreciated. Three Paul, get the work 532 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,879 Speaker 1: on that, alright, As we take our final caller of 533 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 1: the program, and let's say hello to Christian in New York. 534 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 1: What's up Christian? Hey, guys, I want to talk about 535 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 1: the draft. Um, if the Giants really want a pass 536 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:23,359 Speaker 1: rusher at six and they're just really not thinking quarterback. Um. 537 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:26,719 Speaker 1: Something I've actually been worried about is Montest Sweat at 538 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 1: six because he seemed to be like a huge riser 539 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 1: after that forty that he ran, which was absolutely nuts. 540 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 1: But I mean I watched a lot of tape myself, 541 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 1: and uh, I mean, I'm not gonna say who I 542 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:40,639 Speaker 1: do draft work for on your show and all that, 543 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:44,440 Speaker 1: but uh, he doesn't show that speed on tape very much. 544 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:49,880 Speaker 1: He doesn't moving side to side, and the counters. I'm 545 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:53,400 Speaker 1: just not super impressed with either. I think Brian Burns 546 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:58,440 Speaker 1: is actually gonna be a much better pass rusher than him. 547 00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:01,679 Speaker 1: Think I even think Cleveland Farrell too. Well, here's the 548 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:04,919 Speaker 1: thing about Sweat. I think when I watched Sweat on tape, Christian, 549 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 1: he usually won with length. He would extend that big 550 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:09,399 Speaker 1: long arm back the guy off and that's how he 551 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:11,640 Speaker 1: would win. I didn't see him went along the edge. 552 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:14,240 Speaker 1: I didn't see a lot of counter moves inside. Pharaoh 553 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,880 Speaker 1: wins mostly with his hands. He's not bendy. He doesn't 554 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:18,920 Speaker 1: have that speed around the edge, but he's very crafty. 555 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 1: He has a lot of moves he can get inside 556 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 1: his hand. He's very violent with his hands. He's very 557 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,159 Speaker 1: good at that. I'm with you. I think as a 558 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:28,440 Speaker 1: pure pass rusher only, I think Burns is the best 559 00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:30,840 Speaker 1: of the group. He can bend the edge, he's got 560 00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 1: inside counter moves. He's not strong. He's not gonna bull 561 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,359 Speaker 1: rush you now, and that's his weakness. But I do 562 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 1: think he probably has more pass rush uh variable of 563 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 1: variability and tools than the other two guys. I'm with you, Yeah, 564 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:48,239 Speaker 1: And I mean some of it could have to do 565 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,280 Speaker 1: with scheme, if the Giants really want to try to 566 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 1: commit to the three four, or if they're still gonna 567 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 1: be playing some four s three here and there. Chian, Remember, 568 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: even if you're in the three four, when you're a 569 00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 1: nickel or your dime, you're playing four down, Timan, it 570 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 1: really doesn't matter anymore. Yeah, I mean, I guess you 571 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 1: know you should be able to just play a good player, 572 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 1: and you know, but um, I would just really love 573 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:12,800 Speaker 1: to see seventeen. Actually that's more of where he should 574 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 1: be drafted. Well, he ain't getting the seventeen, that's the problem. 575 00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:19,400 Speaker 1: Probably not No, So at this point I'm probably gonna 576 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 1: be upset we end up with swack, so it will 577 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 1: probably be a sex so well and Christian by the way, 578 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:25,880 Speaker 1: and and thanks a lot for the call. I appreciate it. 579 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 1: That's why I'd be okay with's rating down. Like, if 580 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 1: you get down to nine, I think there's a chance 581 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 1: he's there at nine. So you need a lawyer to 582 00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 1: figure out these rules changes. John, look at the official document. 583 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 1: There's lines all over the place. Uh, there's things crossed out, 584 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: there are amendments, and oh my goodness, I'm gonna wait 585 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:48,600 Speaker 1: until something comes out that's a lot cleaner than this, 586 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: because it's a mess. And then the other problem is 587 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 1: they give you the specific rule and then they're giving 588 00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 1: you at the bottom of this the voting uh ballot, 589 00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 1: and they're not telling you what happened. So I'm having 590 00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 1: a lot of trouble trying to figure this out. I'm sorry, Charlie. Paul. 591 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 1: Paul's gonna gonna work on this. He is reading material 592 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 1: for the night. Now we're gonna go home. He's gonna 593 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 1: read it, and then tomorrow with Lance Meadow, you guys 594 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 1: can talk about we we we can do that. And 595 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 1: by the way, we are going to be back tomorrow 596 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 1: Big Book with Lance Meadow live Paul and him tomorrow. Uh, 597 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 1: anything you want to say, Paul before I get an interview, 598 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 1: you're good? No, just that we have Florida and NC 599 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 1: State as our expert witnesses to talk about the draft prospects. 600 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 1: So we enjoy it. All right, We're gonna wrap up 601 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:29,959 Speaker 1: today's show. We had a chance to talk to Bill Robinowitz, 602 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:33,680 Speaker 1: who covers Ohio State for the Columbus Dispatch, earlier this morning. 603 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 1: We'll replay it to wrap up the show. And now 604 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 1: we're drawn by our guest, Bill Robinowitz, he covers Ohio 605 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:42,800 Speaker 1: State football for the dispatching Columbus Ohio Billy got John 606 00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 1: Schmilk and Paul Latino here in East Rutherford. How are 607 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 1: you today? We're doing great. Thank you for joining us again. Bill. 608 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 1: I think this is your number four. You're joining us 609 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 1: to talk about Ohio State prospects. We know you do 610 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:54,240 Speaker 1: such a great job. We're thrilled to have you back on, 611 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 1: and let's start with who I guess is probably the 612 00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 1: best quarterback prospect ever to come out of Ohio State. 613 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,719 Speaker 1: It's the guy but he's talking about that's Dwayne Haskins, 614 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 1: And where I want to start with him? Bill, and 615 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:06,720 Speaker 1: I think kind of get this. This gets to the 616 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:10,560 Speaker 1: crux of it. How advanced of an offense was he 617 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 1: asked to run with urban Meyer in terms of doing 618 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 1: things like reading both sides of the field, going through 619 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 1: his progressions and things of that nature, which to me 620 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 1: a lot of times dictates how quickly a quarterback and 621 00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:24,680 Speaker 1: have success in the NFL. Yeah, well, it's interesting, is 622 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 1: it really was more Ryan Dave's offense last year than 623 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 1: it was urban Meyer's offense. Urban Meyer was not in 624 00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 1: training camp with the team. He was obviously suspended just 625 00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 1: the first three games. Ryan Day was the quarterbacks coach anyway, 626 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 1: and urban Meyer kind of took his uh, let let 627 00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:41,720 Speaker 1: Ryan Day run the offense more or us. I mean, 628 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:44,720 Speaker 1: obviously he had input, but it was more Ryan Dave's offense. 629 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 1: It wasn't kind of the traditional Urban Myers spread. It 630 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:49,080 Speaker 1: was more of a post Dole offense to take advantage 631 00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 1: of what Ryan or Wayne hasks could do so. Uh, 632 00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:55,160 Speaker 1: Doyne asked him. Is a student of a game. He 633 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 1: it was very good at reading progressions. One of the 634 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,719 Speaker 1: criticisms of J. T. Barrett or him was his predecessor, 635 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 1: was that he wasn't port at Patty would he would 636 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:07,640 Speaker 1: be slow going to his progressions. Uh. Dwayne Askins was 637 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 1: was quicker, that has a better arm. I mean I 638 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 1: was with that than J. T. Parrett Um and just 639 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 1: you know, he just shows an effortless ball. It just 640 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:18,720 Speaker 1: comes out of his hands so well. And he and 641 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,320 Speaker 1: he controlled the people he got touched on the short passes. 642 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 1: And look, he better sited from the fact that he 643 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:27,360 Speaker 1: had a really good receiving group around had me had 644 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 1: three senior captains, uh, Paris Campbell's, Dotty Dixon and others 645 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 1: who were really really good too, and so they made 646 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 1: it easy on him in some way. Some of those 647 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:41,960 Speaker 1: touchdown passes were little footpaths, little shruble passes. The Paris 648 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,600 Speaker 1: Campbell Uh, so that you know, I wouldn't say that 649 00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 1: they were after going even how many yet fifty or 650 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:50,560 Speaker 1: whatever it was. You know, probably ten of them were 651 00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 1: kind of you know, he put maskers by him, but 652 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:56,959 Speaker 1: that still leavest forty and that we're legit and uh 653 00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:00,600 Speaker 1: he is by far the best quarterback prospect Ohio State 654 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:03,640 Speaker 1: is produced, which says unfortunately as much about Ohio State's 655 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 1: inability to cruce NFL caliber quarterback Tony think. But I 656 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 1: did a story not that long ago about, uh that 657 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 1: Dwayne Haskins is gonna be the first Higher States first 658 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 1: round or quarterback games has taken in the first round. 659 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:19,520 Speaker 1: Arch Leaster since arch Leister n one, I think you 660 00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 1: see that's the name I was going to bring up. 661 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:24,920 Speaker 1: Bell Lester was a very hot prospect coming out of school. 662 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 1: He was, I mean obvious in the gambling addition, derailed 663 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 1: everything in his life. His career is life everything. But 664 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 1: people forget how good he was. Uh and and but 665 00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:40,160 Speaker 1: Dwayne Haskins, I mean, other than that, other than Schleister, 666 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 1: they've had nobody it's the best pro career that in 667 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 1: the higher state quarterback has had. It is probably Mike 668 00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:50,520 Speaker 1: tom Zack, who wasn't even drafted. Kent Graham was was decent. 669 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:53,440 Speaker 1: You know that for a time, Joe Jermaine, you know, 670 00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: thought that he thought there was a chance he would 671 00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:57,560 Speaker 1: have a pretty good NFL. You hung around for a 672 00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:00,200 Speaker 1: little bit, but never really did much. Uh that fit. 673 00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 1: So Dwayne Haskins is the legit guy and a lot 674 00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 1: of that it's gonna is going to be. I think 675 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:07,959 Speaker 1: he's the first of several that are gonna happen. Uh 676 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:12,000 Speaker 1: uh comad Ohio State. If Ryan Day stays and Ryan 677 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:14,000 Speaker 1: Day has the kind of success that we think he 678 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:16,239 Speaker 1: could have because it's gonna be more of a pro 679 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 1: style offense, it'll be spread concepts. Certainly they haven't abandoned that, 680 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 1: but I mean Runyan Day is really good at adapting 681 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:25,920 Speaker 1: to what his his quarterbacks can do. So we interesting 682 00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 1: to see with justin fields presumably this year, how it looks. 683 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:32,600 Speaker 1: But uh yeah, Dwayne Haskins looked like an NFL quarterback 684 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:35,680 Speaker 1: at Ohio State last year, which again you just haven't 685 00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:38,719 Speaker 1: seen in Cormus Bill. I'd like to get your perspective 686 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 1: because you're right there in the heart of the beast 687 00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:46,440 Speaker 1: at Ohio State. Everybody around the country is talking about, well, 688 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 1: you know, the Giants gotta take him at six or no, 689 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:51,279 Speaker 1: he's not gonna beat there at six. They gotta trade 690 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 1: up to get him where somebody else is gonna trade 691 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:55,799 Speaker 1: up in front of them. To get him. From your 692 00:34:55,880 --> 00:35:00,800 Speaker 1: perspective at Ohio State, what are you hearing the most 693 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:05,360 Speaker 1: logical cases? Well, the most logical scenario is what teams 694 00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:07,840 Speaker 1: appear to be the most interested in him? What is 695 00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:11,440 Speaker 1: the scuttle butt from inside the Buckeye community. Let's forget 696 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:15,880 Speaker 1: about the outside noise that's coming out from around the country. Yeah, unfortunate. 697 00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:17,160 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna be able to help you a whole lot. 698 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:20,360 Speaker 1: I mean, I've been more concerned with the current team, 699 00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, and and so I can't say that. 700 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:26,960 Speaker 1: I mean I kind of passed these guys off cover 701 00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 1: their the combine. I do that, I do the protag stuff, 702 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 1: and then it's like I don't get obsessed about which 703 00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:35,320 Speaker 1: team is going to take Dwayne Haskins or Nick Bosa 704 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:38,440 Speaker 1: or anyway. That's just I'm too busy with with covering 705 00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,200 Speaker 1: the team that I have to cover. So, um, the 706 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:43,440 Speaker 1: Giants make a lot of sense for obvious reasons. I've 707 00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:47,080 Speaker 1: heard Jacksonville and she slips a little bit, you know, 708 00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 1: with with Kyler Murray apparently going to go number one, 709 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:52,799 Speaker 1: then the next team that needs a quarterback is going 710 00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:54,759 Speaker 1: to be tempted if they think the Haskins as the 711 00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 1: guys tempted to trade up to secure him if they 712 00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,120 Speaker 1: feel like he needs to do. But I'm not gonna 713 00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:02,960 Speaker 1: sit here and pretend that I've been talking to the 714 00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:06,080 Speaker 1: coaches and and you know, trying to get to the 715 00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:09,200 Speaker 1: bottom of it. I haven't. So you're better off, Bill, 716 00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 1: because that's nothing but one big headache. So you're better 717 00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:15,520 Speaker 1: off staying out at that, right, I worry about things 718 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:18,359 Speaker 1: I have to worry about him. You know, your team, 719 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:21,320 Speaker 1: I actually have to cover the final one on Haskins 720 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:23,719 Speaker 1: before you get to the bevy of other Buckeye prospects. 721 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 1: I watched prior on six or seven games of his 722 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:28,520 Speaker 1: on tap over the course of the year. Two things 723 00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:30,239 Speaker 1: that I noticed I want to get your take on. One. 724 00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,360 Speaker 1: I thought he got better as the year went along. 725 00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:34,719 Speaker 1: He was throwing the ball down field more as the 726 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:37,400 Speaker 1: year went along. And the one thing that worried about 727 00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:39,480 Speaker 1: him for me is that he I thought he was 728 00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:42,400 Speaker 1: fairly good at stepping up in the pocket from outside pressure, 729 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:44,319 Speaker 1: but when you started getting pressure in his face, I 730 00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:47,280 Speaker 1: thought his footwork really broke down. And sometimes I worried 731 00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:50,399 Speaker 1: about how he handled that. Booking him over the course 732 00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:52,040 Speaker 1: of the year. What are maybe some of the things 733 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:56,719 Speaker 1: that worry you about him at his continuing progression into 734 00:36:56,760 --> 00:37:01,160 Speaker 1: an NFL quarterback where team hopes they're drafting a franchise Gay. Yeah, 735 00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:04,239 Speaker 1: I think you're right on with your comments. He did 736 00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 1: definitely get better as the year went on, which makes sense. 737 00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:09,200 Speaker 1: He had never started a college game until until the 738 00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 1: opener last year. Uh, he's not the most mobile guy. 739 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:17,000 Speaker 1: He's just not. And can he developed the pocket sense 740 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:19,640 Speaker 1: like a Tom Brady or Peyton Manning head that you don't. 741 00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:20,800 Speaker 1: You don't have to be fast. You don't have to 742 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:23,239 Speaker 1: run a fast forty time to be able to do that. Yeah, 743 00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 1: I think you can. I think the game that impressed 744 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:29,040 Speaker 1: me more than any other game was the Northwestern ward 745 00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:33,600 Speaker 1: because he actually made throws on the run under pressure 746 00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:35,279 Speaker 1: when he had been chased from the pocket and he 747 00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 1: really had not done that. He was really good in 748 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:39,680 Speaker 1: the pocket. You give him, protect him, he'll just pick 749 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 1: you apart. But until that Northwestern game especially, I hadn't 750 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:46,640 Speaker 1: seen him kind of makes something out of nothing and said, okay, 751 00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:49,799 Speaker 1: his players going nowhere, that boom, he makes a great throw. 752 00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:52,120 Speaker 1: I thought that was a huge step in this development, 753 00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:53,480 Speaker 1: and he continued to have more or less than the 754 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:55,000 Speaker 1: Rose Bull. I thought he was really good in the 755 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:57,680 Speaker 1: Rose Bowl than Ohio State. Someone else took their foot 756 00:37:57,680 --> 00:37:59,840 Speaker 1: off the pedal and almost blew that game. But for 757 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:03,560 Speaker 1: three quarters I thought oh looked really good. I thought 758 00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:06,120 Speaker 1: Dayne Haskins looked really good in that game. So the 759 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,560 Speaker 1: last uh and obviously the Michigan game when everyone thought 760 00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 1: Michigan was gonna beat O High State finally, and Ohio 761 00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:13,560 Speaker 1: State just had had its way with with the Wolverine. 762 00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:16,240 Speaker 1: So the three games at the M I said, really 763 00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:20,239 Speaker 1: convinced me that he was ready for the NFL. I mean, 764 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:22,839 Speaker 1: would you have benefited from another year of seasonally? Yeah, 765 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 1: I think he could have been the overall number one 766 00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 1: pick next year if he'd stayed. But you know, it's 767 00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:30,160 Speaker 1: hard to turn down a chance to be still a 768 00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:32,480 Speaker 1: high first round draft pick. Bill. How about we go 769 00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:34,200 Speaker 1: to the guy who very well could be the number 770 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:36,920 Speaker 1: one pick overall, Nick Bosa. I'm gonna ask you the 771 00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:39,960 Speaker 1: toughest question you've been asked about him. Don't tell me 772 00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 1: what he does well, nitpick, tell me why he shouldn't 773 00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:47,919 Speaker 1: be one of the first two players in the draft. Wow. Um, 774 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:52,840 Speaker 1: Mrs most of the year with an injury. At that surgery, 775 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:55,600 Speaker 1: I think there have to be some concerned every everything 776 00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:59,280 Speaker 1: that I've heard, whether whether from the doctor himself or 777 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 1: from from Nick Boso or team. I mean, they don't 778 00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:05,480 Speaker 1: seem concerned. That's one of those injuries. Once healed his heels. 779 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,040 Speaker 1: But you know, that's that's something that you have to 780 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:10,759 Speaker 1: wonder about a lit a little bit. He's not quite 781 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:15,959 Speaker 1: as big physically as his brother. Um, so you kind 782 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:19,560 Speaker 1: of wonder a little bit. Okay, can cold being a 783 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:22,759 Speaker 1: slightly smaller guy have an effect. But I'll tell you 784 00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:26,200 Speaker 1: a lot. He's just tremendous. He was as close to 785 00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 1: unblockable as I see. I thought he was better than 786 00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:31,560 Speaker 1: Joey at the same stage of his career. Uh one 787 00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:34,640 Speaker 1: Ohiesty lost him in SERVI Game of the Year that 788 00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:38,839 Speaker 1: completely changed their defense. And I believe that if Nick 789 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:41,279 Speaker 1: Bose had been healthy that that last year would have 790 00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:43,800 Speaker 1: gone all differently for highest Look family lost one game anyway, 791 00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:47,320 Speaker 1: but some of those games might have been more dominant. 792 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:50,480 Speaker 1: And he was that good. He made everyone else that 793 00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:53,960 Speaker 1: much better. Chase Young couldn't get double teamed. Uh if 794 00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:57,280 Speaker 1: Nick Clothes were still in the field, and uh Draymont 795 00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:59,839 Speaker 1: Jones would have even bigger numbers because they couldn't. It's 796 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:05,400 Speaker 1: and devoted more protection to trying to stop him. So, um, yeah, 797 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:09,280 Speaker 1: he was. He was tremendous. He just plays with such leverage. 798 00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 1: He's instinctive, He's he's kind of he's I think he 799 00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:15,120 Speaker 1: said this, he felt like he was born to be 800 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:17,640 Speaker 1: a defensive end and and it kind of looks like that. 801 00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 1: It's it's kind of a little brother syndrome and a 802 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:22,879 Speaker 1: little bit I mean every directly coach that every coach 803 00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:24,319 Speaker 1: was my son's to him. I was one of the 804 00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:27,719 Speaker 1: little brother you know, I got the big brother, but 805 00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:30,680 Speaker 1: I wanted the little brothers. A little brother was hungry 806 00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:33,680 Speaker 1: and had been beaten up by his older brother. And 807 00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:37,719 Speaker 1: you know those were generally better. Now, Nick Bosa or 808 00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 1: Joey Bosa is a tremendous players owner. I'm not playing 809 00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:44,479 Speaker 1: at Joey. I think, yeah, it's a very high stand 810 00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:46,959 Speaker 1: and and I and look, Nick Bosa took Joey's number 811 00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:49,840 Speaker 1: at ninety seven or high state. That says something that 812 00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:52,760 Speaker 1: you know, he didn't shy away from being in his shadow, 813 00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:57,439 Speaker 1: from the comparisons, the inevitable comparisons. He embraced it and 814 00:40:57,440 --> 00:41:01,200 Speaker 1: and uh no, it's it's he's as good as it 815 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:04,839 Speaker 1: gets in terms of just they play and play out. 816 00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:07,280 Speaker 1: It wasn't just the sacks, It wasn't just the past rushes. 817 00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:10,400 Speaker 1: He was really good against the run too. So, um, 818 00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:13,160 Speaker 1: I think he's as close to a to a uh 819 00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:17,800 Speaker 1: Nobs there is. You know, it's funny Bill heading into 820 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:21,520 Speaker 1: the Combine and the Senior Bowl, I was at both. 821 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:24,120 Speaker 1: You didn't hear much about the Ohio state wide receivers. 822 00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:27,160 Speaker 1: Everyone talked about Haskins, Haskins, Haskins. Then I watched Paris 823 00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:31,880 Speaker 1: Campbell and Terry McLaurin play both in Alabama and then 824 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:35,800 Speaker 1: play and do their workouts at the Senior Ball. I'm like, Wow, 825 00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:39,400 Speaker 1: these guys are really really good. Uh let's start Paris 826 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:40,920 Speaker 1: Campbell was I think they kind of used him in 827 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:43,279 Speaker 1: that slash role a little bit, right. How do you 828 00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:48,400 Speaker 1: think he's going to transfer those skills when he's asked 829 00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:52,160 Speaker 1: to run more down field routes and separate deep run 830 00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:54,759 Speaker 1: traditional outs, nine routes, you know, post things like that 831 00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:58,879 Speaker 1: in the NFL from what his role as at Ohio State. Yeah, 832 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:01,319 Speaker 1: it is going to be a learning curve for him, 833 00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:03,799 Speaker 1: There's no question. He has two major questions about him. 834 00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:06,520 Speaker 1: One of his hands is a convert running back, and 835 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:08,080 Speaker 1: there are still times it looks like it. He does 836 00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:10,480 Speaker 1: not have natural hands. He will drop a past the 837 00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:14,000 Speaker 1: game and you kind of got um. But if hands 838 00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:16,279 Speaker 1: got better, they were definitely better last year than in 839 00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:18,840 Speaker 1: previous years. The other is exactly what she said. He 840 00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:21,120 Speaker 1: ran very simple routes a lot of times, just kind 841 00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:24,200 Speaker 1: of qualified handoffs in a way. Get him the ball 842 00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:26,560 Speaker 1: and open space and let him. Let him go because 843 00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:28,480 Speaker 1: you're not going to catch him. He's if you give 844 00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:31,360 Speaker 1: him a crack, he's gone. Um. But he's got to 845 00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:34,000 Speaker 1: prove he could be an all around receiver. To his credit, 846 00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:35,960 Speaker 1: he worked really hard at it and he's a he's 847 00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:38,200 Speaker 1: a hard worker. All those all three of those guys 848 00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:41,640 Speaker 1: mccor and Johnny Dixon and and Harris Gamble are really 849 00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:45,120 Speaker 1: hard workers. So if it's a matter of of that, 850 00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:50,040 Speaker 1: he'll he'll succeed. Um. But so you know, he's not 851 00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:52,560 Speaker 1: a number one receiver in terms of coming into the 852 00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:56,400 Speaker 1: NFL and being your complete guys can run every pattern 853 00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:58,279 Speaker 1: and catch every ball. That's just not who he is. 854 00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:00,719 Speaker 1: But but he's a guy that if he catches it, 855 00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:02,880 Speaker 1: if he gets four touch of the game, or they 856 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:04,520 Speaker 1: might be a touchdown there. Two of them might be 857 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:08,920 Speaker 1: touchdowns because he is really really fast. Uh, he's stronger 858 00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:12,719 Speaker 1: than people think, and he's got moved so you know 859 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:16,920 Speaker 1: it's but he's not a guy that that you just 860 00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:19,320 Speaker 1: kind of plug in and say, there's your complete number 861 00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:22,239 Speaker 1: one receiver. All right, let me go to the offensive line, 862 00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:24,399 Speaker 1: because you've got two guys out there at Ohio State 863 00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:27,239 Speaker 1: and Michael Jordan and Isaiah Prince, who will not be 864 00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:30,360 Speaker 1: first day picks. Heck, they might not even be second, 865 00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:33,600 Speaker 1: maybe even third or fourth, probably third, the third rounders. 866 00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:36,480 Speaker 1: What do you see in those two guys? Are they 867 00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:39,320 Speaker 1: going to be NFL guards? Are they gonna be NFL tackles? 868 00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:43,319 Speaker 1: Isaiah Prince will be a tackle and Michael Jordan will 869 00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:46,080 Speaker 1: be a guard. I mean, I guess Prince could play inside. 870 00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:50,279 Speaker 1: Maybe my question about Isaiah Prince, and he's the guy 871 00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:53,200 Speaker 1: who really improved. His sophomore year was kind of a 872 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:56,360 Speaker 1: disaster and he really took it to heart and learned 873 00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:59,880 Speaker 1: from it and matured and was much better. Uh, bigical 874 00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:02,920 Speaker 1: question with him. I think it's just quickness Kenny Kenny 875 00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 1: because he would kind of jump the staff. I mean, 876 00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:08,520 Speaker 1: he knew that edge rush rushers could had he had 877 00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:11,719 Speaker 1: issues with him. Uh, kids from Minnesota had a field 878 00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:16,160 Speaker 1: day against them, honestly, and so you know his confidence 879 00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:18,520 Speaker 1: can't you know, at times looked like it was shaking. 880 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:21,239 Speaker 1: He said it wasn't. But in that Minnesota game was 881 00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:23,600 Speaker 1: a tough game for him, but otherwise he played pretty well. 882 00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:28,359 Speaker 1: He's a big, strong guy. Run blocking is really good. Uh, 883 00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:32,759 Speaker 1: he's got a meanness on the field. A really nice guy, 884 00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:35,400 Speaker 1: gentle guy off the field, a very sweet guy. But 885 00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:38,520 Speaker 1: on the field there's definitely a mean streak and that's 886 00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:42,040 Speaker 1: a good thing. Um. My main question though, is just 887 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:44,719 Speaker 1: does he have that foot quickness? Can he can he 888 00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:48,520 Speaker 1: fend off those edge rushers rushers? And if he can, 889 00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:50,440 Speaker 1: he can have a pretty good career. If he can't, 890 00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 1: then they'll be exposed. Uh. Michael Jordan's took one for 891 00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:56,560 Speaker 1: the team last year played center because the guy they 892 00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:58,600 Speaker 1: thought was going to be the center got hurt and 893 00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:01,239 Speaker 1: they really didn't feel comfortable any other alternatives, so they 894 00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:03,359 Speaker 1: moved Jordan, who had been a guard and a very 895 00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:06,000 Speaker 1: good one for two years, to center, and it was 896 00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:08,480 Speaker 1: clearly not his natural position. He was okay at it, 897 00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:11,480 Speaker 1: but he's he would have definitely played guard if he'd 898 00:45:11,480 --> 00:45:13,640 Speaker 1: come back to ives date this year, and I think 899 00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:15,640 Speaker 1: that's where his future is. He's he's the first to 900 00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:19,479 Speaker 1: live state true freshman to start on the offensive Orlandel case. 901 00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:24,319 Speaker 1: Uh So that tells you just first of all, the 902 00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:25,960 Speaker 1: stat of the state of the offensive line when he 903 00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:29,040 Speaker 1: got there, and secondly that he was up to the challenge. 904 00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:32,640 Speaker 1: He's a guy who was very confident in himself, very competitive, 905 00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:36,719 Speaker 1: uh like like Isaiah Prince, has a mean streak on 906 00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:39,520 Speaker 1: the field and off the field. Again, a very very 907 00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 1: nice guy, very soft spoken, well spoken guy comes to quickly. Family. Um, 908 00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:49,120 Speaker 1: you know, he would never be a problem off the field, 909 00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:51,000 Speaker 1: either one of them, you know, the good guys off 910 00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:55,000 Speaker 1: the field. Um, you know Jordan's it's more just this experience. 911 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 1: I think he's still a young guy, but I think 912 00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:01,120 Speaker 1: he'll be a sol pro for for a while. I 913 00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:02,960 Speaker 1: don't think he's a high risk guy. I think he's 914 00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:05,520 Speaker 1: a guy that you know, probably coming as a backup, 915 00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:07,400 Speaker 1: can be a swing guy because you can't fight SA 916 00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:09,239 Speaker 1: and I think you can play tackle if if you 917 00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:11,799 Speaker 1: need him to, uh, but he's not gonna be a 918 00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:13,879 Speaker 1: star per se. I wouldn't think he'd be a Pro 919 00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:16,000 Speaker 1: Bowl guy. But he's the guy who can be a 920 00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:18,520 Speaker 1: productive NFL player for quite a while. I want to 921 00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:20,480 Speaker 1: go in depth on Terry mclauren a little bit. I 922 00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:23,359 Speaker 1: know you talked about Campbell briefly. We always a great 923 00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:26,280 Speaker 1: special teams player, just like a good football player in general. 924 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:28,879 Speaker 1: And I watched him at the Senior Bowl. Nobody could 925 00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:31,280 Speaker 1: cover him. And then I looked at his production numbers 926 00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:33,560 Speaker 1: at Ohio State and then at the Combat he runs 927 00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:35,960 Speaker 1: a sub four four And I'm sitting there, I'm like, 928 00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:38,840 Speaker 1: why didn't Terry McLaurin have better numbers? So what was 929 00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:41,719 Speaker 1: it about Bill? How they used the Ohio State that 930 00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:45,240 Speaker 1: maybe his production doesn't match the talent that I'm seeing 931 00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:48,640 Speaker 1: out there on the field. Yeah, I think the sunder 932 00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:50,759 Speaker 1: He was a late bloomer. They always loved him. They 933 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:53,560 Speaker 1: always thought he was a you know, a great guy, uh, 934 00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:55,920 Speaker 1: leader in the in the room. But he was a 935 00:46:55,960 --> 00:46:57,800 Speaker 1: guy can kind of joke. He was the best player. 936 00:46:57,800 --> 00:47:00,920 Speaker 1: He never made a play. He was coming and the 937 00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:05,320 Speaker 1: year and then like junior, especially senior year, he made 938 00:47:05,320 --> 00:47:09,120 Speaker 1: those plays. So you know, I'm not slamming. I'm he's 939 00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:13,400 Speaker 1: a great guy, great personality, just national leader, all that stuff. 940 00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:16,160 Speaker 1: But he was a guy who just didn't it just 941 00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:18,319 Speaker 1: didn't click for him on the field, who comes so 942 00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:21,040 Speaker 1: close the ball would trickle off his hands, that kind 943 00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:23,960 Speaker 1: of thing for early in his career, and then again 944 00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:26,720 Speaker 1: last year in some degree junior year, it just clicked 945 00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:29,960 Speaker 1: for him. And and he was a tremendous player last year. 946 00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:31,960 Speaker 1: Mean you mentioned the special teams. He was as good 947 00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:34,719 Speaker 1: as Gunn as I've ever seen, both in terms of 948 00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:38,839 Speaker 1: tackling and be able to spot the ball and down it. Um, 949 00:47:38,880 --> 00:47:42,000 Speaker 1: just just like uncanny. I mean, urban Meyer loves that part. 950 00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:45,840 Speaker 1: He's a special teams guy. He loved Terry McClaren. I 951 00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:51,520 Speaker 1: mean he loved him, and so uh, you know, Yeah, 952 00:47:51,560 --> 00:47:53,839 Speaker 1: the speed surprised me a little bit because everyone knew 953 00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:55,960 Speaker 1: that the Paris Campbell was that fast, and he knew 954 00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:58,520 Speaker 1: mcclorin was fast. I don't know he's that fast, you know, 955 00:47:58,520 --> 00:48:02,200 Speaker 1: in the forties. So, um, I think he's a more 956 00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:05,680 Speaker 1: much more polished and complete receiver than Paris Campbell right now. 957 00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:09,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think he's quite as fast as Campbell. Uh, 958 00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:15,200 Speaker 1: but he's got better hands. His hands really got really improved. Um, 959 00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:17,319 Speaker 1: he runs better routes, or at least is a more 960 00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:21,000 Speaker 1: but sure route runner. I think he's gonna have a 961 00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:23,200 Speaker 1: really good career. I think he'll start off family on 962 00:48:23,239 --> 00:48:25,120 Speaker 1: special teams. But I think that he'll be a guy 963 00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:27,560 Speaker 1: that you can plug him into any of those receiver 964 00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:31,279 Speaker 1: spots and he can he can help you, and you'll 965 00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:33,920 Speaker 1: want him on your team because in terms of community 966 00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:37,399 Speaker 1: and just I mean, he's just an outstanding young man, 967 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:41,600 Speaker 1: really a nice, nice guy. Sometimes there's a receiving corps 968 00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:43,400 Speaker 1: that will need that one guy who's just going to 969 00:48:43,480 --> 00:48:45,360 Speaker 1: be the flank or the guy who's simply going to 970 00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:47,520 Speaker 1: stretch the field. He doesn't have to do a whole 971 00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:50,719 Speaker 1: lot else, he just needs to stretch it because of 972 00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:53,520 Speaker 1: his speed. Do you think he can be that guy 973 00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:56,239 Speaker 1: who just provides the deep threat and doesn't necessarily have 974 00:48:56,320 --> 00:49:00,440 Speaker 1: to have the other responsibilities. Yeah, he could, but I 975 00:49:00,440 --> 00:49:03,080 Speaker 1: think he could do the other stuff. You know, if 976 00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:07,320 Speaker 1: if Paris Campbell had better hands, more reliable hands, I 977 00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:09,480 Speaker 1: should say, then I think he would be that guy 978 00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:12,440 Speaker 1: more naturally, I think Paris, I think Terry McLaurine is 979 00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:15,560 Speaker 1: more complete. I don't. I mean he could he be 980 00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:18,880 Speaker 1: that flank or guy. Yeah, he can be um, but 981 00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:22,640 Speaker 1: you know, and he made some catches on Pro Day 982 00:49:22,719 --> 00:49:25,280 Speaker 1: and again Pro Day's Pro Day. But there are balls 983 00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:27,279 Speaker 1: that I thought he's not gonna get that one, and 984 00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:30,879 Speaker 1: he got it. And you know, the numbers are early 985 00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:32,480 Speaker 1: in his career. First of all, some of that was 986 00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:35,920 Speaker 1: because PlayN Ass wasn't the quarterback. J T. Barrett was, 987 00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:38,960 Speaker 1: and j T. Barrett ran more than he threw and 988 00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:41,560 Speaker 1: there were still a lot of a lot of really 989 00:49:41,560 --> 00:49:44,920 Speaker 1: good receivers on that teamber. Michael Michael Thomas caught like 990 00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:47,920 Speaker 1: forty passes in the last year Ohio State. And I 991 00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:50,360 Speaker 1: remember going into the draft where people ask me about 992 00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:53,080 Speaker 1: that draft class. It was a great draft class, and 993 00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:55,560 Speaker 1: I said, the guy that I think is really underrated 994 00:49:55,600 --> 00:49:58,439 Speaker 1: as Michael Thomas because they didn't use them that much 995 00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:01,040 Speaker 1: and he has a five I rated him. I mean 996 00:50:01,080 --> 00:50:04,239 Speaker 1: he uh for some of the interviews I did with 997 00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:08,080 Speaker 1: the books, I mean, he just really he wanted to 998 00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:10,879 Speaker 1: be the best. Zack Smith told me that, like he's 999 00:50:11,080 --> 00:50:13,480 Speaker 1: when he was recruiting him, that Michael Thomas was. I'm 1000 00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:15,480 Speaker 1: gonna be the next Randy Moss or the next whatever. 1001 00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:18,120 Speaker 1: I mean, he just had that in his head. Um. 1002 00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:21,359 Speaker 1: You know, I think that Ohio State spreads the ball around, 1003 00:50:21,600 --> 00:50:23,279 Speaker 1: and so you're not gonna have a guy that's gonna 1004 00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:25,600 Speaker 1: have eighty catches, you know, the Paris Campbell did, but 1005 00:50:25,680 --> 00:50:28,239 Speaker 1: that's because the lasts catches. Like I said, we're we're 1006 00:50:28,280 --> 00:50:31,920 Speaker 1: kind of glorified handoffs. But you know, until last year, 1007 00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:34,560 Speaker 1: they didn't have that. I mean, Dwayne has or JT. 1008 00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:37,160 Speaker 1: Barrett wasn't that kind of quarterback. That's not what they did. 1009 00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:39,719 Speaker 1: On third and five. They would have an empty backfield 1010 00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:43,479 Speaker 1: and Dwayne Haskins keep picks him up. J Barrett would 1011 00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:46,480 Speaker 1: would run the ball. So that's part of the reason. 1012 00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:49,160 Speaker 1: And also that they did run more of a traditional 1013 00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:52,160 Speaker 1: spread that wasn't the more pro style offense that they 1014 00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:55,479 Speaker 1: used last year with Ryan Bay. You know, we talked 1015 00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:58,080 Speaker 1: about mclarine kind of outperforming with his numbers at the 1016 00:50:58,120 --> 00:51:01,360 Speaker 1: Common then what people expected. Maybe the one guy that 1017 00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:04,960 Speaker 1: I think the most people in Indianapolis were surprised that 1018 00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:08,440 Speaker 1: I spoke to you that didn't perform well was Draymond Jones. 1019 00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:11,759 Speaker 1: So I think people thought is was the you know, 1020 00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:13,920 Speaker 1: he was the tools he guy that maybe his numbers 1021 00:51:14,160 --> 00:51:17,040 Speaker 1: weren't as good as what his athleticism was, and then 1022 00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:20,120 Speaker 1: his numbers of the combine were unspectacular. Give me your 1023 00:51:20,120 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 1: thoughts on Draymond Jones and and kinda where the arrows 1024 00:51:23,640 --> 00:51:26,040 Speaker 1: pointing with him in his career and what you saw 1025 00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:29,680 Speaker 1: from him on a consistent basis at Ohio State. Yeah, 1026 00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:32,800 Speaker 1: I was a little surprised by the combined numbers too. Um. 1027 00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:34,480 Speaker 1: You know, he did not strike me as being a 1028 00:51:34,520 --> 00:51:38,200 Speaker 1: slow player. I don't think he's very quick, very twitchy. Um. 1029 00:51:38,280 --> 00:51:40,520 Speaker 1: You know, I think a forty time for a defensive 1030 00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:45,040 Speaker 1: tackle is among the more useless. I mean I do. 1031 00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:48,040 Speaker 1: I mean, if you're counting on your defensive tackle to 1032 00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:49,920 Speaker 1: kit chase somebody forty yards down the field, you got 1033 00:51:49,960 --> 00:51:52,440 Speaker 1: bigger problem. Yeah. Absolutely, But but I think the one 1034 00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:55,360 Speaker 1: thing that that though was his his three cone wasn't great, 1035 00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:57,040 Speaker 1: which I thought was gonna be a lot better because 1036 00:51:57,040 --> 00:52:01,200 Speaker 1: you know, you have that twitch stuff with the defensive lineman, right, yeah, 1037 00:52:01,239 --> 00:52:03,000 Speaker 1: he You know, I'd go by what I see on 1038 00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:05,480 Speaker 1: tape more than I go by a three color. I mean, 1039 00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:09,400 Speaker 1: I think the combine stuff, it can be it's useful. 1040 00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:12,520 Speaker 1: But if people are gonna make their final judgments on 1041 00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:15,440 Speaker 1: players based on that rather than watching the tape, I 1042 00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:19,719 Speaker 1: think they're making a mistake. Teams believe that too, But yeah, 1043 00:52:20,160 --> 00:52:23,200 Speaker 1: I think that Draymond Jones he's a three technique guy. 1044 00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:26,120 Speaker 1: He's not a clogger. He's not a guy's gonna play 1045 00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:29,880 Speaker 1: a qualified nose tackle position. But if you want a 1046 00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:33,960 Speaker 1: guy who can uh provide some interior pass rush and 1047 00:52:34,080 --> 00:52:38,240 Speaker 1: be good against the run, he's He's good. I mean again, 1048 00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:40,120 Speaker 1: his numbers were good last year. They would have been 1049 00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:42,759 Speaker 1: better if posts have been around that played all year, 1050 00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:46,600 Speaker 1: but it wasn't like very much Jones needed Nick Boston 1051 00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:48,520 Speaker 1: to put up good numbers. He's still like good numbers. 1052 00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:50,960 Speaker 1: He was the only, honestly a player who made all 1053 00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:54,239 Speaker 1: Big ten on defense, so uh, people knew how good 1054 00:52:54,239 --> 00:52:57,560 Speaker 1: he was and and uh and a very self confident 1055 00:52:57,600 --> 00:53:01,319 Speaker 1: guy to um any young guy. He's also young. He's 1056 00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:04,560 Speaker 1: he's a fourth year junior, but I think he enrolled 1057 00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:08,879 Speaker 1: early in Ohio State, so uh, you know, I think 1058 00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:12,600 Speaker 1: he's a borderline first round pick. If he were available 1059 00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:15,480 Speaker 1: mid to late second round, I'd i'd snap him up. 1060 00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:18,640 Speaker 1: I mean, if he slipped farther than that, You know, 1061 00:53:18,680 --> 00:53:22,080 Speaker 1: I don't, I'd be very surprised. I remember a few 1062 00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:25,160 Speaker 1: years ago high State at a player Michael Bennett, who 1063 00:53:25,239 --> 00:53:27,920 Speaker 1: I thought was going to be back in third round guy, 1064 00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:29,719 Speaker 1: and he last to a sixth round and I was 1065 00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:32,640 Speaker 1: like done by that. Um, you had a little bit 1066 00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:34,759 Speaker 1: of an injury history and and all that. So, you know, 1067 00:53:34,800 --> 00:53:37,480 Speaker 1: I kind of give up on predicting these things. And 1068 00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:40,600 Speaker 1: sometimes it's just what does the team need and who's 1069 00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:43,680 Speaker 1: on their draft board at the moment, and and it's 1070 00:53:43,719 --> 00:53:45,840 Speaker 1: just kind of a crapshoot in certain ways. But I 1071 00:53:45,840 --> 00:53:47,800 Speaker 1: think Draymond Jones is going to be a very solid 1072 00:53:47,920 --> 00:53:51,160 Speaker 1: NFL player. Bill, my final question, you planted a seed 1073 00:53:51,239 --> 00:53:53,160 Speaker 1: for me because we all know all how it States 1074 00:53:53,200 --> 00:53:55,200 Speaker 1: such a good program. They have so many guys that 1075 00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:57,879 Speaker 1: we can talk about. But you said when you talked 1076 00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:00,520 Speaker 1: about Michael Thomas that you thought he'd beat the sleeper 1077 00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:04,239 Speaker 1: of the Buckeye draft class. Who is the sleeper of 1078 00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:07,880 Speaker 1: this year's Buckeye draft class who were not talking about 1079 00:54:08,239 --> 00:54:12,600 Speaker 1: who you think has a chance to be an NFL player. Yeah, 1080 00:54:12,640 --> 00:54:14,440 Speaker 1: that's a good question. I'm trying to go through the 1081 00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:17,439 Speaker 1: number there how many have to combine. Uh, sorry about 1082 00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:22,200 Speaker 1: my landline ringing. Um. I think Johnny Dixon is a 1083 00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:25,680 Speaker 1: guy who he battled the injuries, almost gave up the game. 1084 00:54:26,320 --> 00:54:29,040 Speaker 1: He had a really good product. He looked really quick 1085 00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:31,239 Speaker 1: if his knees hold up when it was tennanitis and 1086 00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:34,440 Speaker 1: you know it's not a structural thing like a ligaments. 1087 00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:38,000 Speaker 1: I think he could surprise a lot of people. He's 1088 00:54:38,040 --> 00:54:41,680 Speaker 1: in the class of Paris Campbell and McLaren. Not quite 1089 00:54:41,719 --> 00:54:46,040 Speaker 1: as fast, but uh, you know, a little more limited, 1090 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:48,120 Speaker 1: smaller framed. He's not going to be a guy. I 1091 00:54:48,120 --> 00:54:51,440 Speaker 1: mean he'd be a third or fourth kind of receiver. Um. 1092 00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:54,839 Speaker 1: But again, a quality guy. I thought he I thought 1093 00:54:54,840 --> 00:54:57,040 Speaker 1: he really helped himself on prote He made some really 1094 00:54:57,120 --> 00:55:02,200 Speaker 1: nice catches. He really good hands, um. And I think 1095 00:55:02,200 --> 00:55:05,480 Speaker 1: he's hungry because he almost lost football and he'd almost 1096 00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:08,360 Speaker 1: given up on it. And so he's a guy that 1097 00:55:08,400 --> 00:55:11,120 Speaker 1: ad that late in the draft. I would take a 1098 00:55:11,120 --> 00:55:14,480 Speaker 1: flyer on him. I'm trying to think of who who else? 1099 00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:22,320 Speaker 1: There's so many. Um, Kendall Sheffield. You know Kendall Sheffield 1100 00:55:22,360 --> 00:55:24,840 Speaker 1: as a guy who didn't until the Rose Boss that 1101 00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:27,480 Speaker 1: the Rose Bowl was his best game didn't quite put 1102 00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:30,040 Speaker 1: it together. And some of it I questioned was the coaching. 1103 00:55:30,160 --> 00:55:33,719 Speaker 1: They just didn't teach their guys how to effect them. Hell, 1104 00:55:33,760 --> 00:55:35,400 Speaker 1: turn around and look for the ball and the pe boss. 1105 00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:38,640 Speaker 1: He was always in position. You never saw Kendall Sheffield 1106 00:55:38,719 --> 00:55:41,560 Speaker 1: just get beat um. But he just didn't make all 1107 00:55:41,600 --> 00:55:43,719 Speaker 1: the plays you thought he could make, and I think 1108 00:55:43,760 --> 00:55:47,400 Speaker 1: was good coaching. He's got the skills, he's got the speed. 1109 00:55:47,480 --> 00:55:49,880 Speaker 1: I mean, one of the shames about the combines he 1110 00:55:49,880 --> 00:55:52,759 Speaker 1: heard himself in the lips he sports beck. He didn't 1111 00:55:52,760 --> 00:55:55,440 Speaker 1: need surgery, but it kept him from running the forty 1112 00:55:55,560 --> 00:55:58,719 Speaker 1: he might have put up afore two. I mean, he's 1113 00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:02,920 Speaker 1: he I be the fastest guy in the NFL dot 1114 00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:08,000 Speaker 1: com Adam is is bad so uh and with the injury, 1115 00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:09,839 Speaker 1: I don't know how that will will effect his draft 1116 00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:11,600 Speaker 1: at US. And we really don't know him why he 1117 00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:14,520 Speaker 1: didn't like talking to the media. It wasn't rude about it, 1118 00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:16,759 Speaker 1: just didn't make himself available. So I can't really say 1119 00:56:16,760 --> 00:56:18,520 Speaker 1: I know a lot about him. He's just the guy 1120 00:56:18,560 --> 00:56:22,320 Speaker 1: that you saw on Saturdays. Uh. If he's healthy, which 1121 00:56:22,680 --> 00:56:24,200 Speaker 1: I would assume he would be by the time the 1122 00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:28,960 Speaker 1: season starts. Since he didn't need surgery because of his speed. Um, 1123 00:56:29,040 --> 00:56:31,719 Speaker 1: he's an intriguing guy. I think he will require a 1124 00:56:31,719 --> 00:56:36,759 Speaker 1: lot of coaching, but the skills are there, so he's 1125 00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:38,839 Speaker 1: the guy to look for. I guess built final one 1126 00:56:38,920 --> 00:56:41,880 Speaker 1: for me. I was going to rename Ohio State Defensive 1127 00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:44,200 Speaker 1: back University over the past few years, and I'm shocked 1128 00:56:44,200 --> 00:56:47,000 Speaker 1: to look down and only see the one dB really 1129 00:56:47,120 --> 00:56:48,880 Speaker 1: on your prospect list coming out. Do you guys have 1130 00:56:48,880 --> 00:56:51,319 Speaker 1: a lot of freshmen coming down the pike that you 1131 00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:53,399 Speaker 1: know are going to fit into that. You know, all 1132 00:56:53,440 --> 00:56:54,960 Speaker 1: those guys that have come out in the draft the 1133 00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:57,400 Speaker 1: last few years, whether it's Milie Cooker or Eli Apple 1134 00:56:57,680 --> 00:57:00,880 Speaker 1: and basically the guys that have been populating NFL defensive 1135 00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:04,479 Speaker 1: backfields over the past couple of years. Yeah, I think 1136 00:57:04,719 --> 00:57:07,799 Speaker 1: Jeffrey Kuda, he'll be a junior this year, five star 1137 00:57:07,840 --> 00:57:10,759 Speaker 1: guy out of Texas. I think he's the next guy 1138 00:57:10,760 --> 00:57:13,879 Speaker 1: to be that. I think he certainly has first round 1139 00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:16,720 Speaker 1: ability if he again, like like Sheffield, played his best 1140 00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:19,920 Speaker 1: game in the Rose Bowl. With new coaching this year, 1141 00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:22,440 Speaker 1: new coaching staff on the defensive side will be very 1142 00:57:22,480 --> 00:57:24,080 Speaker 1: interested to see exact We're going to talk to the 1143 00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:28,439 Speaker 1: DBS today. Very interested to see his development this year. 1144 00:57:28,880 --> 00:57:31,000 Speaker 1: He's got all the skills, he's got the size, he's 1145 00:57:31,840 --> 00:57:33,680 Speaker 1: it's just a matter if he's doing it on the field. 1146 00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:36,480 Speaker 1: If he lives up to that potential, I think he 1147 00:57:36,640 --> 00:57:38,800 Speaker 1: is definitely a first round you know, certainly a first 1148 00:57:38,880 --> 00:57:42,560 Speaker 1: round potential pick next year. Um, Damon Arnette was gonna 1149 00:57:42,680 --> 00:57:47,440 Speaker 1: turn pro last after the season and wisely chose not 1150 00:57:47,560 --> 00:57:50,640 Speaker 1: to because he had a disappointing year. He's looked really 1151 00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:53,320 Speaker 1: good this spring. If he has the kind of year 1152 00:57:53,360 --> 00:57:55,800 Speaker 1: that he hopes, I think he'd be, uh, you know, 1153 00:57:55,920 --> 00:57:57,880 Speaker 1: a guy that teams will look at. I don't think 1154 00:57:57,920 --> 00:57:59,720 Speaker 1: he's the first round guy, but I think he's a 1155 00:57:59,760 --> 00:58:02,240 Speaker 1: guy that that can play in the league if he 1156 00:58:02,680 --> 00:58:06,040 Speaker 1: if he develops. But um, yeah, last year it was 1157 00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:08,520 Speaker 1: the defensive backs were just warning. There's there's no question 1158 00:58:08,560 --> 00:58:11,040 Speaker 1: about it. And the whole defense was I mean it 1159 00:58:11,040 --> 00:58:13,400 Speaker 1: was the worst defense and on highest state history statistically, 1160 00:58:14,040 --> 00:58:16,920 Speaker 1: and uh, they gave up big plays and some of 1161 00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:26,400 Speaker 1: that is because the offense scored so fast. There is there. Yeah, 1162 00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:28,520 Speaker 1: it's like a run on gun basketball team that yeah, 1163 00:58:28,520 --> 00:58:30,640 Speaker 1: they're gonna give up any points because they score a hundred. 1164 00:58:31,040 --> 00:58:33,760 Speaker 1: But um, so there is some of that. But but 1165 00:58:33,880 --> 00:58:35,920 Speaker 1: the big plays at hyest they gave up last year, 1166 00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:38,560 Speaker 1: which just I mean, it was ridiculous. They really for defense. 1167 00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:40,919 Speaker 1: It's good as the highest states should be. To give 1168 00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:43,440 Speaker 1: up you know, at certain times back to back a 1169 00:58:43,680 --> 00:58:48,800 Speaker 1: yard touchdown runs, it's just kind of like what's going on. So, uh, 1170 00:58:48,880 --> 00:58:51,720 Speaker 1: they've revamped the defense this year. Larry Johnson is the 1171 00:58:51,720 --> 00:58:53,600 Speaker 1: only coach that give it a blind coach who's one 1172 00:58:53,640 --> 00:58:55,080 Speaker 1: of the best of the country. He's the only one 1173 00:58:55,120 --> 00:58:58,680 Speaker 1: that's that's gonna be uh, that's back. So it'll be 1174 00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:01,680 Speaker 1: very interesting to see how the last defense looks this year. 1175 00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:03,800 Speaker 1: I mean, Chase Young the defense and will be a 1176 00:59:03,800 --> 00:59:06,880 Speaker 1: first round pick next year unless something really strange happens, 1177 00:59:07,520 --> 00:59:10,480 Speaker 1: top ten pick, I would think, so, um, you know 1178 00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:14,439 Speaker 1: they'll be The pipeline is not dried up in Ohio State, Bill, 1179 00:59:14,560 --> 00:59:16,880 Speaker 1: great stuff. Put it on your calendar. We're talking about 1180 00:59:16,920 --> 00:59:19,360 Speaker 1: a year as we talked about another dozen Ohio states 1181 00:59:19,720 --> 00:59:22,600 Speaker 1: prospects that I got to dominate the NFL. Thank you 1182 00:59:22,680 --> 00:59:25,720 Speaker 1: very much, Thanks Bill, thanks for having me on. That's 1183 00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:29,560 Speaker 1: Bill Benowitz. He covers Ohio State for The Dispatch In 1184 00:59:29,800 --> 00:59:34,600 Speaker 1: Columbus Ohio and Paul never a limited amount of players 1185 00:59:34,680 --> 00:59:36,800 Speaker 1: from Ohio State. Always a lot of good players, but 1186 00:59:36,840 --> 00:59:38,320 Speaker 1: more on the offensive side of the ball this year 1187 00:59:38,320 --> 00:59:40,439 Speaker 1: than we used to see. And as we spoke about, yeah, 1188 00:59:40,440 --> 00:59:43,280 Speaker 1: that's very true, And I don't blame him for kind 1189 00:59:43,320 --> 00:59:46,320 Speaker 1: of like passing these guys along like a mother hand, 1190 00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:48,760 Speaker 1: because quite honestly, if you've got to keep track of 1191 00:59:48,800 --> 00:59:50,920 Speaker 1: all the guys they have, plus all the guys they 1192 00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:53,880 Speaker 1: have in the NFL, you could probably populate the planet. 1193 00:59:54,360 --> 00:59:57,560 Speaker 1: They have so many prospects. How could he possibly keep 1194 00:59:57,600 --> 00:59:59,600 Speaker 1: track of all of them?
