28
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: Oregon was a nine and a half point favorite. I

29
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 1: think most of us felt it was a tough matchup

30
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 1: for USC to go to Otson When in big games,

31
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: especially on the road, USC gets pushed around. Their defense

32
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 1: has major holes it did today, and I think as

33
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 1: Oregon cruises to a win, I think there's two or

34
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 1: three things. Big picture. Oregon now is a top six

35
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 1: or seven program. Mario Cristobal Dan Lanning both elite recruiters

36
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 1: Phil Knights and il Money. Oregon's been recruiting even before

37
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 1: nil for the last ten years at a more consistently

38
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 1: great level than USC, which is remarkable considering, you know,

39
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,639
Speaker 1: the state of Oregon has maybe three or four really

40
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:17,959
Speaker 1: good high school players annually in California has one hundred.

41
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 1: You know, it blows the mind. But when I covered

42
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 1: Oregon early, the great advantage Oregon had and took advantage

43
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 1: of it. They didn't have a lot of history. Rich

44
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 1: Brooks did a good job, but I mean, it wasn't

45
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:35,639
Speaker 1: a notable national program. And then Mike Blotti comes in

46
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: and did chip Kelly becomes his coordinator in chip Kelly,

47
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 1: and then it became more of a national program. But

48
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 1: it was really led by Phil Knight and the one

49
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 1: hundred uniforms and the thirty helmets, and the facilities. During

50
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 1: the facility wars, Oregon was top of the West Coast

51
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:55,639
Speaker 1: and USC ad you know, until about I don't even

52
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 1: know if Pete Carroll had great facilities. I think it

53
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 1: was post Pete they started building facilities down at USC.

54
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:08,239
Speaker 1: So Oregon's been a much more progressive, forward moving program.

55
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 1: If it's nil, they figure theirs out very quickly. If

56
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 1: it's stadium upgrades. It's not as political as school or

57
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:20,680
Speaker 1: as political an environment as USC football. It's just really

58
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:23,799
Speaker 1: really you know, west of Denver, Oregon's been the best

59
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 1: fotball program for a long time and it was a

60
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 1: really fun program to cover. I kind of caught it.

61
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: It wasn't nearly as big a wave as it is now.

62
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 1: But I've followed it, you know, ever since I got

63
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 1: into Portland, since I watched as many Oregon games as

64
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 1: I can. They're an exceptional college football program. USC is

65
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 1: a good college team, and I think you have to

66
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 1: ask yourself when you watch today. It's a reoccurring theme,

67
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 1: is that when Oregon plays a really good team Penn

68
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 1: State last year, they give up a boatload. Notre Dame

69
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 1: Oregon this sh year, they can't stop anybody. Four years in,

70
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 1: the defense is still at best mid and against the

71
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: elite teams less than mid, that's what it is. Special

72
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 1: teams come on short kicks, hitting the upright. Give me

73
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 1: a break. It was an awful special team's day. And

74
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 1: even the offense, even in lean times, I mean even

75
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 1: Paul Hackett, you know, recruited Carson Palmer. I mean even

76
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 1: in lean times US He's always had good backs and

77
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:34,119
Speaker 1: tight ends and multiple receivers. The entire offense is Mikayle Lemon,

78
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 1: who is a late first, early second receiver. Good good receiver,

79
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 1: not blazing speed, not enormous size, but just to tremendously tough, smart,

80
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 1: runs the whole route, Tree gritty, really a great player.

81
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 1: That's it. That's the offense. Their running backs have been

82
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 1: hurt for a month. The tight ends are average. I

83
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 1: do think Lincoln is a really smart offensive coach from

84
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 1: play designed to play calling and Jade and Mayava. I

85
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,919
Speaker 1: watched him at at UNLV. I thought he was I

86
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: thought he was reckless an athletic. I never thought he'd

87
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: be close to this good. He's a draftable player now,

88
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,119
Speaker 1: probably a second or a third. I texted a GM

89
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 1: this week and asked him he's probably a second or

90
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: a third round quarterback. But he his accuracy has improved,

91
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 1: His decision making is better. It's not his fault, you know.

92
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,159
Speaker 1: I went into this game and my takeaway was the

93
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 1: way to win on the road you have to have

94
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,159
Speaker 1: You have to generally make a play in special teams

95
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 1: to your advantage. Well, USC gives up a punt return

96
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 1: for a touchdown, You're not going to win a road

97
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,919
Speaker 1: game against an elite team like that. You also have

98
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:40,479
Speaker 1: to run the ball in the road. You have to

99
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 1: control the clock, and Oregon did not play a clean game.

100
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 1: It was I mean USC was really sloppy, but Oregon

101
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 1: was sloppy. A lot of penalties they gave USC multiple opportunities.

102
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 1: It's not like the Trojans didn't have opportunities in this game.

103
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 1: They were down a touchdown, had the ball, could never

104
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,360
Speaker 1: take advantage of it. But in the end it came

105
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 1: out at bad special teams and couldn't make any big stops.

106
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 1: You know, they had They had a big stop. Irlackers

107
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 1: interception was a great kind of hits. His arm grabs

108
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 1: it goes a great play by him. They didn't have

109
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 1: their starting safety today, but the backups Pierce and Irlacker

110
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,039
Speaker 1: were you know, really good solid players. But us he

111
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:25,359
Speaker 1: just doesn't have enough good players right now. With Kamari

112
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 1: Ramsey the safety out Bishops also a draftable player at safety,

113
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 1: he and Ramsey we are not playing. So I mean,

114
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 1: McKay lemons, you're you're really high draft pick one at USC.

115
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:40,280
Speaker 1: So it's a one man offense. You know, I'd say

116
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 1: two Jade Mayov and mackay Lemon, dependable, really high end players.

117
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 1: Offensive line's okay, tight ends average and this is year four,

118
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 1: so you know, USC now has attacked Southern California recruiting.

119
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,280
Speaker 1: But it's inexcusable. For the first three years they virtually

120
00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 1: ignored it. So it's just four years in. I mean,

121
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 1: when Brett Venables took over Oklahoma, he'd never been a

122
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 1: head coach. Lincoln Riley had been a head coach for

123
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 1: several years. You thought he had a big advantage. Also,

124
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: LA is a much better recruiting area than the state

125
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:16,960
Speaker 1: of Oklahoma. But Brett Venables has established an identity. He's

126
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:22,680
Speaker 1: got an NFL quarterback in Materier. They played top physical football.

127
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 1: You kind of know what Oklahoma is, what is usc

128
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 1: good quarterbacks? Four years in they have good quarterback play,

129
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 1: that's something. But they're not terribly talented or deep. They're

130
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 1: not multi dimensional. They can't stop good teams. They're hit

131
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 1: and miss on the road. Special teams are all over

132
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 1: the map, usually poor in big games. So I think that,

133
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 1: you know, the critics on Lincoln Riley four years in

134
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 1: have every right to say we were right. And I

135
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 1: do think. You know, again, when he came out of Oklahoma,

136
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 1: I thought he's got head coaching experience, us, he's got

137
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 1: a lot of money. LA is a fertile recruiting ground.

138
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 1: He's gonna get Caleb Williams. That looks like it's gonna work.

139
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 1: Four years in. I mean that his first year he

140
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 1: had Caleb Williams and Jordan Addison. I mean those guys.

141
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,560
Speaker 1: I mean that's four years later. That's what the team is.

142
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 1: I mean the first year it was Caleb Williams, Jordan

143
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 1: Adison and a really bad defense. Special teams are all

144
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:34,839
Speaker 1: over the map. It's kind of what you're here for,

145
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 1: right so, I you know, I I just kind of

146
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,960
Speaker 1: look at USC right now, and they're not close to Oregon.

147
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 1: They're really not Oregon. Recruits better, they have a better brand,

148
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:55,360
Speaker 1: more identity, The money's rolling in. Yes, it helps to

149
00:08:55,360 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: have Phil Knight. So what come on? Los Angeles economy

150
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 1: is a monster. I mean the California economy, I think

151
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 1: his fifth biggest in the world. Jen Coole and the

152
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 1: athletic director that came down from Washington, has raised a

153
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:13,680
Speaker 1: lot of money for new facilities in NIL. USC's nil

154
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 1: is not Oregon, maybe not Ohio State or Texas. But

155
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 1: it's very good. It's very strong. It's top seven or

156
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,560
Speaker 1: eight in the country. But they haven't spent the money wisely,

157
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 1: you know, I hear how great their twenty twenty six classes,

158
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: but none of those players are on the field today,

159
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,599
Speaker 1: So I mean again, I think Oregon is just a

160
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:35,200
Speaker 1: tip top program. Dante More is such a good quarterback.

161
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 1: By the time I came up here to record this,

162
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:38,840
Speaker 1: he was twenty two to thirty two hundred and fifty

163
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 1: seven yards in a couple of touchdowns. I really think

164
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 1: he's exceptional. He is really a good player. And Oregon

165
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,319
Speaker 1: was missing their top three receivers, and that's really that

166
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,959
Speaker 1: really shows you what Oregon is. They were missing their

167
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:54,680
Speaker 1: top three receivers and scored in the forties. They could

168
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:58,200
Speaker 1: run the ball. They've got so much depth. I mean,

169
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 1: they're tight end. The one guy looks like a professional bodybuilder.

170
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 1: They just looked the part Oregon's got. I mean Oregon has.

171
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,760
Speaker 1: If Dante More came out, I think they have five

172
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:13,719
Speaker 1: players in the top thirty six. I believe they do

173
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:18,079
Speaker 1: five players in the top thirty six. US he's got

174
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:23,719
Speaker 1: one and US he's based in Los Angeles, so and

175
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 1: US he has more than enough money. So Oregon is

176
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 1: a really good program, and I don't think anything stopping it.

177
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:37,320
Speaker 1: I heard Dan Lanning today on game day said, you know,

178
00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 1: I'm here forever, and I actually think Oregon's a really

179
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,720
Speaker 1: good job as long as you have I mean, the

180
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 1: facilities are remarkable, the fan loyalty is remarkable, they travel

181
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,200
Speaker 1: to road games. Oregon fans are just fantastic. And it's

182
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 1: not a distracted like Seattle or LA or the Bay Area.

183
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 1: You know, on the West Coast, Unlike some of the

184
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 1: southern towns, there's a lot of pro sports. It's easy

185
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 1: to get distracted. I mean, UCLA football is invisible in LA.

186
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:10,080
Speaker 1: But Oregon football in the Pacific Northwest, it's a big deal.

187
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 1: It's the coolest brand in the Pacific Northwest, including the Seahawks,

188
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 1: including the Mariners. Oregon football's got the coolest brand. Just

189
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:23,239
Speaker 1: everything about it reeks of cool and smart and thoughtful.

190
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 1: And Dan Lanning's exceptional. He's just you know, he's got

191
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 1: that ability that he's got the alpha. He's got that

192
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 1: certain fortitude that I mean, I would want to play

193
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:36,959
Speaker 1: for Dan Lanning like he is just he's like a

194
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:43,120
Speaker 1: player's guy, that he is optimistic and tough but supportive.

195
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 1: He's just everything you want. And the fact that a

196
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:50,439
Speaker 1: Southern guy has embraced the Pacific Northwest. Good for Oregon.

197
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:52,760
Speaker 1: Great choice. I didn't know if he'd make it. I thought, well,

198
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,240
Speaker 1: he's got no tie to the West coast, and I

199
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 1: made a couple of calls and they're like, you know,

200
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:58,959
Speaker 1: he's a go getter. He was a defensive guy on

201
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,319
Speaker 1: the Georgia's staff. And I'm like, well that's Kirby's are

202
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 1: we sure? I mean? And Oregon's like, yeah, three thousand

203
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 1: miles away, he's our guy. And Oregon, to their credit,

204
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 1: I mean, they've made a couple of mistakes, but by

205
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:15,839
Speaker 1: and large they hire good head coaches. Mario Cristobal. People

206
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 1: could have their pushback on Mario, but he's a great recruiter.

207
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:20,079
Speaker 1: And I've always said, if you're going to make a mistake,

208
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: and I'm not saying Mario christaball is, if you're going

209
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,160
Speaker 1: to make a mistake hiring a coach, hire a great recruiter.

210
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 1: When Florida hired Ron Zook, it was a mistake, but

211
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 1: Zuk was an amazing recruiter and he handed all those

212
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 1: players to Urban Meyer. Oklahoma years ago had a coach

213
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 1: they hired that flamed out, but they had He handed

214
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: all the players to Bob Stoops, who in year two

215
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,079
Speaker 1: won a national championship. So what you don't want to

216
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,199
Speaker 1: hire is some scheme expert who doesn't like recruiting if

217
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,840
Speaker 1: he doesn't work. It's a three year rebuild. So Oregon's

218
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 1: had great rosters and Sunday players for over a decade

219
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 1: and I just admire the program. But I think when

220
00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:02,240
Speaker 1: you if you're a critic of Lincoln Riley, I think

221
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:03,960
Speaker 1: you can raise your hand and say I told you so,

222
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 1: and you're right. I think he's a really good play

223
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 1: designer and play caller, and he did a remarkable job

224
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 1: with Jade Mayava deserves all the credit. And their offense

225
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 1: is clever and it's creative, and they hung around in

226
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:19,200
Speaker 1: this game today. But man, it's a pattern big games

227
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:25,959
Speaker 1: against good teams. Defense just isn't close to making enough plays,

228
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 1: just not enough talent, and their special teams continue to

229
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:33,440
Speaker 1: be woeful in big spots. And it's year four. So

230
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 1: all the critics today's their day, and you have to

231
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,280
Speaker 1: respect that. There are a lot of people from the

232
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:43,199
Speaker 1: beginning that didn't think he had the whatever it is,

233
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: whatever those skills are, it's hard man to be a

234
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:47,679
Speaker 1: head coach. I mean, Mike McDaniel in Miami, I think

235
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 1: is a brilliant young coach. I don't think he's a

236
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 1: great head coach. And I've said this, I really think

237
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley is smart. Is he a great culture builder?

238
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 1: Talk to NFL executives and they always say, we don't

239
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 1: need a scheme guy. That's what coordinators are for. I

240
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 1: need a culture builder. I need Mike Vrabel. I need

241
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 1: a hardball a Sean Payton, a Mike McDonald, a Sean McVay.

242
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 1: I don't need to scheme guy as a head coach.

243
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 1: Lincoln right at this point, it's a great scheme guy.

244
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 1: He hasn't proven he is a great head coach. All right.

245
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 1: Some thoughts on Lane Kiffin. I've been been talking to

246
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 1: some people today about Lane Kiffin. Listen, the SEC is

247
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 1: a different ballgame. Is nobody loses any sleep taking somebody

248
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 1: else's head coach. I've said I think Lane Kiffin should

249
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:44,320
Speaker 1: probably stay at Old Miss or go pro coach on Sundays,

250
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 1: I think bouncing around. I mean, he was at Tennessee

251
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 1: for one year and bolted, and now he's going to

252
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 1: piss everybody off at Old Miss and probably take the

253
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 1: LSU job, which comes. I mean, you're going to make

254
00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,480
Speaker 1: fifteen million a year if you get into the playoff

255
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 1: and win some games. But Lane's not short on cash.

256
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:09,400
Speaker 1: LSU is short on patience. Yeah, I think I often

257
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 1: try to put myself into a position you know what

258
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 1: would I do? And I'm never going to criticize people

259
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:22,560
Speaker 1: for professional mobility. You know, I bounced around and I

260
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:25,920
Speaker 1: have friends who have I and I this whole loyalty thing.

261
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 1: Be loyal to your family if there's a great opportunity.

262
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 1: Ole miss is a good job. LSU is a great job.

263
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 1: LSU the governor stepping in would be a huge turn

264
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:38,400
Speaker 1: off for me. I've always said, chase good management money.

265
00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 1: There's a c of it if you're good at what

266
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:45,080
Speaker 1: you do. LSU would worry me. And I think Florida

267
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 1: is a remarkable job. I mean Spurrier, urban Meyer. There

268
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 1: are a lot of coaches. You can win a lot

269
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 1: of games at Florida, and you're close to the beach.

270
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 1: Get yourself like Spurrier, a beach house or a beach condo,

271
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 1: a second home. Gainesville's a cool college town. I think

272
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 1: Florida job's really good. But I think he's probably gonna

273
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 1: go to LSU. I think he likes the South. I

274
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 1: think he's changed his life. And remember, I've been told

275
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,440
Speaker 1: this by a really really good head coach told me

276
00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 1: this that offensive players will follow the coach. So Lane

277
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:30,440
Speaker 1: is always going to get good offensive players out of

278
00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 1: high school and the transfer portal because he's going to

279
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,920
Speaker 1: go to the white board drawed up and offensive players

280
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 1: are going to be like, yeah, I want some of that.

281
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 1: The great defensive players, the five star guys, they like

282
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 1: to play at the big schools. They're not as coach loyal.

283
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 1: They're going to go to Ohio State, Notre Dame and

284
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:51,200
Speaker 1: you know, Clemson and the LSU and Georgia and Bama

285
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 1: and Oklahoma, and defensive players tend to go to the

286
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 1: big schools. Offensive guys follow the wizard, the offensive guru.

287
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,280
Speaker 1: So Lane's offense instance doesn't matter. Roy coaches Ole Miss,

288
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:05,399
Speaker 1: Florida Atlantic. He's going to get offensive guys. He's not

289
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,840
Speaker 1: going to get elite defensive guys at Ole Miss like

290
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,240
Speaker 1: he can get at Georgia or Abama or a Florida

291
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,119
Speaker 1: or an LSU. And I think I think Laye knows that.

292
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 1: So my gut today, he'll probably take the LSU job.

293
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 1: In coaching circles, it's always been thought of as Georgia, LSU,

294
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 1: Bama are the three best jobs in the conference. I

295
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 1: think Florida is one that really attracted me. I went

296
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:34,679
Speaker 1: to Gainesville four or five times. I really like the

297
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 1: town and I think Florida is a cool gig. A

298
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 1: lot to like about Florida. The entire athletic departments like

299
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:45,960
Speaker 1: well run. But I think he's going to go to

300
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 1: LSU and I'm you know, I said this on FS

301
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:52,240
Speaker 1: one this week. When people say, but he could be

302
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 1: an all time legend at Ole miss I've never heard

303
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 1: a single person in my life. Let's say, I've got

304
00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 1: a couple of friends that are you know, they're in

305
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:03,600

Speaker 1: want to be a legend at Blank. That's not a

310
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:23,240
Speaker 1: discussion anybody has. That's what fans say. What they want

00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:33,439
Speaker 1: old Miss Lane Kiffin didn't get into coaching thinking I

314
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 1: want to be a legend anywhere. He doesn't even want

315
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:38,679
Speaker 1: to be a legend at LSU. Saban's coach there. He

00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 1: have a lot of money behind him, and he knows

318
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,439
Speaker 1: he can build a better roster at LSU or Florida

319
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:54,879
Speaker 1: then will miss. That's what coaches think about, right, That's

Speaker 1: met a pro athlete that I want to be the great.

322
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:04,639
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe the late Kobe Bryant's like, hey, can I

323

Speaker 1: be the greatest linker of all time or something? Maybe,

324
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,240

325
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 1: get paid and wanted to hoist trophies. That's what you

326

Speaker 1: want to do. That's what That's what great athletes want

327
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,919
Speaker 1: to do. You know. Show me, show me the lettuce

328
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 1: and let's pursue trophies. Give me the right coach, the GM,

330
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 1: I may have watched it for a second time The

331
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:37,440
Speaker 1: Age of Disclosure on Amazon Prime. I watched it this morning.

332
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,320
Speaker 1: I'm going to probably watch it again tonight. The Age

333
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:44,919
Speaker 1: of Disclosure. It is a ninety minute just shy a

334
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:52,440
Speaker 1: two hour documentary much anticipated on upas or UFOs and

335
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 1: the legacy program within our government that even congress people

336
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:02,399
Speaker 1: can't access, and it to a story from senior officials.

337
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:06,480
Speaker 1: I mean, it's really impressive. The litany of you know,

338
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:11,679
Speaker 1: important people in our government. This is not you know,

339
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 1: bloggers or people chasing contrails. You're getting senior officials, physicists,

340
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 1: Stanford professors commenting on it. Insiders in our government for

341
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 1: fifty years talking about craft that is not created by us,

342
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,199
Speaker 1: that we don't know what the hell they are. And

343
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:39,719
Speaker 1: I'm not going to give it away. I'm not going

344
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:43,399
Speaker 1: to spoil it, but there's a five about an hour

345
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:52,760
Speaker 1: in the physicist talks about a certain kind of craft

346
00:20:53,160 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 1: that that exceeds what we can create. And it's fascinating.

347
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:07,520
Speaker 1: It is absolutely fascinating. It goes from about five minutes,

348
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 1: it's about an hour in talking about what people have

349
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 1: seen and the probability of what it is, and it

350
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 1: is next level. I've watched every UFO documentary, I've always

351
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:30,920
Speaker 1: thought it's foreign craft, it's China, it's Russia. I don't think,

352
00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:33,680
Speaker 1: for the first time in my life, I do not

353
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,600
Speaker 1: believe that. After watching Age of Disclosure, And there is

354
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 1: a five minute segment that is the most captivating, utterly

355
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 1: fascinating five minutes that I've ever seen in any UPA

356
00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:55,480
Speaker 1: or UFO documentary. You'll know what I'm talking about. You'll

357
00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:57,639
Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about. I'm not going to give

358
00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:02,240
Speaker 1: it away, but it is is mind blowing. I mean

359
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:06,560
