Just to heads up, we're recording this 4 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:20,240 Speaker 1: on Sunday morning, so we're not gonna have anything on 5 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:23,680 Speaker 1: the LSU us C game on Sunday night. And in 6 00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:25,320 Speaker 1: the second half of the show is gonna be our 7 00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:28,960 Speaker 1: interview with Eric Galco, who runs the East West Shrine game. 8 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:31,480 Speaker 1: Tony I kind of talked about this. We don't want 9 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,720 Speaker 1: to overreact too much to what we see the first 10 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:35,519 Speaker 1: few weeks of the college season. So we have a 11 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:38,080 Speaker 1: couple of these interviews Tony that we're gonna latch onto 12 00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:40,280 Speaker 1: these shows. We'll talk about some of the key games, 13 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 1: some of the key matchups that we don't want to 14 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:43,879 Speaker 1: make too much out of what we see from me 15 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:45,640 Speaker 1: some of the guys we're keeping an eye on this year, 16 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 1: just in their first couple of college games of the year. 17 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 2: You don't really want to overreact to any single game. 18 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:52,839 Speaker 2: That's that's a bad thing. People get into. They see 19 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 2: a guy play always, you know, he's the greatest thing 20 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 2: since Slice read. There's a lot of film on these 21 00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 2: guys though. There were some outstanding performances yesterday in Week 22 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 2: one by some really good NFL prospects. I mean, the 23 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:09,480 Speaker 2: Arizona receiver Trittoria McMillan had three hundred and four yards 24 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 2: and four touchdown receptions. That guy is a potential top 25 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 2: four pick. He reminds me of Calvin Johnson minus the 26 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,399 Speaker 2: four to three seven speed. He is that natural, he 27 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 2: is that fluid. Ashton Genty, the running back from Boisey State, 28 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 2: who was a really really good next level prospect. Two 29 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 2: hundred and sixty seven yards and six tds against Georgia Southern. 30 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 2: You know, great for him. If he keeps that up, 31 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 2: it'll be in the Heisman Trophy candidacy. But that performance, 32 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 2: Loan is not going to help his you know, his 33 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,680 Speaker 2: draft stock. But he is a really good NFL prospect. 34 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 1: Yeah. I think we saw a couple of really good 35 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 1: running back performances over the course of the weekend. A 36 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 1: better running back class. That's something we'll certainly address as 37 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 1: we go along.

Where do you want 41 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 1: to start? 42 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, I think we start off a lot 43 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:09,240 Speaker 2: of these teams got off to slow starts. I mean 44 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:13,079 Speaker 2: Ohio State, Penn State, Georgia, they were off the slow starts, 45 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 2: and then they really kicked it into gear. 46 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,520 Speaker 1: Even Michigan was wating on Saturday night. 47 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:19,679 Speaker 2: Slow start exactly. Let's start off with the first one, 48 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 2: Georgia Clemson. I mean, first of all, from a college 49 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 2: football perspective, you can see why the teams programs are 50 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 2: going in different directions because of just the sheer speed 51 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 2: in athleticism that Georgia is able to put on the field. 52 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 2: I mean, some of their defensive players just really wow me. 53 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,399 Speaker 2: I think these guys are really good. Starting with their 54 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 2: junior linebacker who was a reserve last last season, who 55 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 2: had a terrific game. Let me pull it up here, 56 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. Jalen Walker, who led the team in tackles, 57 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 2: led the team in sacks, led the team in tackles 58 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 2: for loss. Reminds me of a Nolan Smith type. He's 59 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 2: gonna get a little bit bigger. Like I said, he 60 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 2: was a reserve last year, number seven, but when you 61 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 2: watch the film, you know, you can see flashes. During 62 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,119 Speaker 2: the twenty twenty three season, he seems to have pulled 63 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,520 Speaker 2: it all together, was all over the field making plays. Yesterday, 64 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 2: their pass rusher Michel Williams seems to be rounding into 65 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 2: form again. He was the guy who last year, very 66 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 2: explosive player can come out of a three point stance 67 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 2: and standover tackle up until the chop lock, which then 68 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 2: they had to take him out of the game. Yesterday 69 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 2: which got called for a penalty. He really started to 70 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 2: He basically asserted himself wasn't great in the stats cale 71 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 2: and in the stats column, but had a lot of 72 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 2: impact plays. 73 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: You know, Tony, Tony, just real quick, you mentioned the 74 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: Georgia guys. Every time I saw a Georgia player and 75 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 1: make a play in the backfield, I'm like, oh my gosh, 76 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 1: that guy's just bigger than everybody else that's on the field. 77 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: It's like they have the best athletes in college football. 78 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 2: It's crazy bigger and faster then their team speed. It's 79 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 2: just like wow, It's like it's like Clemson was going 80 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 2: half speed compared to Georgia. 81 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,839 Speaker 1: And Clemson has some good athletes too. By the way, 82 00:03:58,440 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: That's why it's so strike. 83 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 2: They gotta go to good players on their defensive line. Now, 84 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 2: remember all of their defensive linemen are now in the NFL. 85 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 2: They were the drafted or slide as prior to free agent. 86 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 2: I see all of them, the starters, de Monte cape Hart, 87 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 2: the big defensive tackle, Peyton Page. These are guys that 88 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 2: are highly thought of in the scouting community, and really 89 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 2: I think asserted themselves well, especially in the first half 90 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 2: against a very good Georgia offensive line. But they weren't 91 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 2: but their offense wasn't able to move the ball and 92 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,119 Speaker 2: they just broke down. But these are guys kpe harton 93 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 2: Page and even Trey Williams to watch. Moving forward, from 94 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 2: the Clemson point of view. 95 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 1: I think we should mention one of the defender for 96 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 1: Georgia before I want to talk to you about a couple 97 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: of their offensive players, Tony Malachi Stark. So I know 98 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: both of us think is probably gonna be the best 99 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: safety in this class. Maybe he'll challenge as a potential 100 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 1: top ten pick. Boy, he showed the athleticism going almost 101 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:53,359 Speaker 1: horizontal on an interception playing man to man outside just 102 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:54,239 Speaker 1: a heck of a catch. 103 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 2: He is a big, fast safety who can cover when 104 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 2: you put him. When you watch the film, you know 105 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 2: there were times where they put him over the slot receiver. 106 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,839 Speaker 2: And he's not a liability. I mean, he holds his own. 107 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:10,159 Speaker 2: Came into the season with basically near first round grades 108 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 2: from scouts, which is pretty good for a junior safety. 109 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, no question about all right. I want to jump 110 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 1: on Georgia's offense here. You know Carson Beck Tony and 111 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: he was my favorite quarterback heading into this year from 112 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,119 Speaker 1: what I watched the guys last year, because he makes 113 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: these throws, these deep incuts in the middle of the 114 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 1: field where he just seems to put these balls into 115 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,719 Speaker 1: small areas and they look like NFL throws to me. 116 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,480 Speaker 1: I thought he was fine. I didn't think he was spectacular. 117 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: But then they frasured the running back with Trevor atn 118 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,840 Speaker 1: not playing violation of school rules. Correct if I'm not mistaken. 119 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 1: He didn't have a chance to play, but Ny Fraser 120 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 1: took advantage of it. 121 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, they didn't really say why he was on the sideline. 122 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 2: So I think that fade pattern, that corner pattern to 123 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 2: Coleby Young, the big receiver, the transfer from Miami, who's 124 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 2: the potential late round pick. That was a very impressive 125 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 2: pass because, like you said, it was in the corner 126 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 2: of the end zone. It was but where only Young 127 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 2: could make the reception, and he did for a touchdown. 128 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 2: And that's when the game started to get out of 129 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 2: hand and started to get away from Clemson. But I 130 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 2: agree with you, he wasn't spectacular, but you know, he 131 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,839 Speaker 2: makes a lot of really nice throws and if he's 132 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 2: able to multiplay that and to do that on a 133 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 2: consistent basis, he's gonna vault up draft boards. 134 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 3: He can also move, okay, Like he's not a mobile 135 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 3: I wouldn't classify him as an athletic mobile quarterback Tony, 136 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 3: but we saw him run for that first We saw 137 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 3: him run for that first down in the first half 138 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 3: of the game. He's not a stat like he is 139 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 3: an an O'Connell back there either. He is a little 140 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 3: bit more juice than that. 141 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 2: It's at the point now where all quarterbacks that are 142 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 2: gonna be top forty five picks have some sort of mobility. 143 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 2: I mean, that's the way it is. It's going to 144 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 2: be either guys that can make plays with their legs 145 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 2: or guys that are able to elude defenders. You know, 146 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,159 Speaker 2: even if they're two hundred and twenty five, two hundred 147 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 2: and thirty pounds. 148 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: What'd you think in they Fraser the running back, I 149 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 1: mean he. 150 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 2: Was solid, you know. I mean I didn't think the 151 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:02,600 Speaker 2: running game really did it was? Was that great? I was. 152 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:06,559 Speaker 2: I was a little bit surprised by how it took 153 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 2: that Georgia offensive line in the first half to really 154 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 2: get it together, because they have got some terrific talent 155 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 2: at at offensive guard as well as tackle. You know, 156 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 2: I think we'll have to wait and see as the 157 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 2: year goes on. 158 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: By the way, the folks can here, I got my 159 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 1: seven year old and two year old playing in the 160 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 1: room next to me, so there's any background noise. That's 161 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 1: why they're having a great time. They're having a great time. 162 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 1: That that makes people any happier about it. Let's go 163 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: to Miaby here, Tony and I think the conversation has 164 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 1: to start with cam Ward, who is just dynamite. 165 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 2: Wow. I mean wow, that's It's like you would have 166 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 2: thought that cam Ward had run that offense for five years, 167 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 2: that he was a fifty year senior in the Miami offense, 168 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 2: and he had had those guys playing and practicing around 169 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 2: him for the past five years. I mean the poise, 170 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 2: the control, the way he was always in command of 171 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 2: the situation, the patience. Now he's got some technical things 172 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 2: that he's got to work on, and they're throwing the 173 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 2: ball across across his body is not good. There are 174 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 2: some questionable passes. I love the fact that he's able 175 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 2: to change his arm release to get rid of the ball, 176 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 2: to get it into get it into his targets. But 177 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, you can tell cam Ward has 178 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 2: got it going on between the ears. He's got to 179 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 2: improve his pass placement. We talked about Carson Beck's pass placement. 180 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 2: Cam Ward's is not the same. It's not that he 181 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 2: is inaccurate. It's that he has receivers adjusting backwards or 182 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 2: leaving their feet. He doesn't throw receivers free. I guess 183 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 2: it is the best term to say that everybody uses, 184 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 2: which he has to improve on. But you can't come 185 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 2: away not blown away by what you saw yesterday with 186 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,320 Speaker 2: cam Ward to go into the swamp, which is one 187 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:54,679 Speaker 2: of the most hostile places in all of college football 188 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 2: if you look. I wrote an article about it at 189 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 2: sports Skeena about how you know this was a must 190 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 2: win for Billy Napier, the Florida coach who's probably gonna 191 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 2: get fired, if not by the end of the season. 192 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 2: During the season, because you look at that end of 193 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 2: the Florida Florida's schedule from the beginning of October through November, 194 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 2: and it's absolutely killer. And Kim Ward just went in 195 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:18,439 Speaker 2: there and just warn them the shreds. I mean, it was, 196 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 2: it was. It was a thing of beauty and good 197 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 2: for cam Ward. I mean, you talked about how we're 198 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 2: gonna have Eric Galco on if you remember, we spoke 199 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 2: to galco last year at the Shrine Bowl about cam 200 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 2: Ward who was gonna go back, and then he was invited, 201 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,319 Speaker 2: was good, was invited to the Shrine Bowl, and then 202 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 2: he decided to enter the NFL Draft and then he 203 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 2: was good. Then he went back into the transfer portal 204 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 2: and you know what, Week one, so far it seems 205 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 2: to have worked out for him. 206 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 1: And this could be this year's kind of Jade and 207 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 1: Daniels deal. Right, you go back for another year, you 208 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 1: figure everything out, and then who knows what you wind up. 209 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,320 Speaker 1: We always got the physical size, the arm strength, all 210 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 1: the physical characterist. So if you can put together between 211 00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 1: the years, like you're talking about Tony, we'll find some 212 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:01,679 Speaker 1: of the passing game stuff. I think I could see 213 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 1: people talking about in the way we talked about Anthony 214 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,680 Speaker 1: Richardson a little bit a couple of years ago coming out. Obviously, 215 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 1: Richardson a lot less experienced. Ward has played a lot 216 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 1: more games, obviously, but just a very quarterback that has 217 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: all the tools you want. 218 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 2: Absolutely, I mean, I think he's further along the line 219 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,959 Speaker 2: mentally than Richardson was. I don't think Richardson was a 220 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 2: guy who just you know, it was hit or missed. 221 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,680 Speaker 2: With Richardson, it was feast or famine. But what I 222 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 2: saw yesterday from Kem and you saw it last year 223 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 2: at Washington State. It's not like this came out of nowhere. 224 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 2: There were times, really the past two years at Washington 225 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 2: State where you saw this big, strong, arm athletic guy 226 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 2: who you know, at times would make some questional passes. 227 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,640 Speaker 2: I thought at times he needed to improve his accuracy, 228 00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 2: which I think he still does, needs to improve his 229 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,680 Speaker 2: past placement. But this is just not out of the blue. 230 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 2: It's the fact that he played for Washington State, and 231 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 2: let's be honest, Washington State was on it ten thirty 232 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 2: at night. Nobody watched him. You got to see it nationally. 233 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 2: And you know that game yesterday is probably one of 234 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 2: the toughest games Miami is gonna have on its schedule. 235 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 2: So really, the sky's the limit right now for camp. 236 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 1: Ward Xavier or Streppo and Ice game in that game 237 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 1: for Miami, anything else jump out of you. 238 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 2: Tony Francisco Mwamwagoa the linebacker, he's probably a late round 239 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 2: guy sixty one, not a three down guy, but just 240 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 2: someone who plays lights out, someone who plays over his head, 241 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 2: will sell out on the blitz for the ball, force 242 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,079 Speaker 2: the action a lot. Again, you look at more of 243 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,599 Speaker 2: like a day three pass rush specialist. Would like to 244 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 2: see him complete his game if he can. But he 245 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,080 Speaker 2: showed really well yesterday in that game. 246 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,439 Speaker 1: All right, let's jump over to the Penn State game. 247 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: They roll over West Virginia and they get a little 248 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:40,440 Speaker 1: bit of a slow start, but they met They wind 249 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 1: up getting rolling there. Tony and boy new offense there 250 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:47,239 Speaker 1: and it showed Drew Hollar looked like a different quarterback, 251 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 1: very effective. He was really good. And then their running 252 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 1: back Nichola Singleton was very explosive. 253 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, at times, I mean, I think when you and 254 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 2: I both games were on at the same time, except 255 00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:03,079 Speaker 2: the Penn State West Virginia game had a three hour 256 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,439 Speaker 2: delay because of weather, so you really only got to 257 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,839 Speaker 2: see the first half of that game. But that game 258 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 2: was on at the same time, so you as the 259 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,959 Speaker 2: Clemson game, so I was able to compare contrast. Drew 260 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:17,559 Speaker 2: a large Carson Beck, and I thought that alar in 261 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 2: the game yesterday in the first half of the way 262 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 2: made some more wow throws, but he wasn't as consistent 263 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 2: that one deep middle pass for the touchdown. What impressed 264 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 2: me the most is if you watch the replay, the 265 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 2: ball was out of his hands before the receiver made 266 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 2: his break, and the receiver did not have to adjust 267 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:39,559 Speaker 2: or anything. Receiver came out of break, the ball was gone. Now, 268 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 2: there was some inconsistencies. I talked about the Carson Beck 269 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 2: FA corner pattern. Jewell Lard does not do that as well. 270 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:49,959 Speaker 1: He and his back shoulder throw right down the left 271 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:51,199 Speaker 1: side LINEA. 272 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:52,839 Speaker 2: Yeah one in the end zone where it was a 273 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,319 Speaker 2: better catch than it was a pass as supposed to 274 00:12:56,400 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 2: say that the completion that Carson Beck made me ends 275 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 2: on the Colby Young listen. I like you a law. 276 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 2: You got to remember. I mean, what four fifths of 277 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 2: the Penn State offensive line has gone is maybe it's 278 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 2: three fifths of the offensive line was going. They were 279 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,839 Speaker 2: all drafted, so there's gonna take There's gonna be some 280 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 2: adjustment there. They don't have the greatest receivers. I like 281 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 2: a law. I think he's got great upside potential. I 282 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 2: do think he's gonna be a first round pick. I 283 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 2: think he can move up draft boards a little bit 284 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:27,719 Speaker 2: uneasy uneven this yesterday the uh the one matchup that 285 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 2: I also watched was the left tackle from Penn State, 286 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 2: Wyatt Millium against their pass rusher of the Penn State 287 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 2: the defensive pass rusher straordinaire Abdul Carter. UH. First I'm 288 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,680 Speaker 2: gonna say is I think that Penn State is doing 289 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 2: themselves and Abdul Carter the service by putting out of 290 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,959 Speaker 2: a three point stance because he's so explosive, because he 291 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:52,839 Speaker 2: can do so many things. So well that said, he 292 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 2: made a Millium from UH West Virginia look like an 293 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 2: amateur yesterday. I mean he could not he could not control. 294 00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 1: Them Antonio's coney. If you look at the box score, 295 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 1: he had very little production. But if you watch the game, 296 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: and I watched the decent amount of it, he's beat 297 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,199 Speaker 1: him around the edge. He's he's he's disruptive. He was 298 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:09,439 Speaker 1: all over the place in that game. 299 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 2: There was that one fourth and one where the rest 300 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 2: gave it to him. If you remember the Bad Mark 301 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:17,680 Speaker 2: or West Virginia only game, a half the yard where 302 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 2: Abdull Calarter just just exploded to the inside which created 303 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 2: the ability for number ninety one to twist around the 304 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 2: edge and make the stop. 305 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: Guys on the planet and you know, and people are there. 306 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 2: Millim is liked in the in the scouting community. I 307 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 2: think he's more of a late round pick. I don't 308 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 2: think you're gonna be left tackle in the NFL. I 309 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 2: think he's gonna be a right tackle. Abdull Carter's just fantastic. 310 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 2: I mean, he's Micah Parsons the LeVar Arrington rolled into one. 311 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 2: I think he's got that type of talent. I really 312 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 2: hope for his sake and the Nitty Lions sake, they 313 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 2: do more with him than just have him come out 314 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 2: of a three point stances, have him come rush up 315 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 2: the field, because he can make plays in space. He's 316 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 2: just that special the player. 317 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, and the thing about a duel Carter, you see 318 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 1: him move, you think he's one of these like smaller 319 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:07,240 Speaker 1: two hundred and thirty pound edge you guys, Tony look up. 320 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, he's two fifty one and he moves 321 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: that way and he's pretty good. 322 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 2: I mean he looks he's not a he's not a 323 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 2: big bulky guy. I mean you look at him and 324 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 2: you think he's a smaller guy. 325 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, but he's two fifty one, which I think he 326 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 1: probably plays a more power than people think anything else. 327 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 1: In the Penn State game, I thought the Penn State 328 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 1: running back Singleton looked very good. 329 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean first game. I don't think West Virginia 330 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 2: is really that good of a team, to tell you 331 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 2: the truth. They've got bits, and they got some pieces 332 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,600 Speaker 2: here and there. I think they did a better job 333 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 2: staying in the game. Really, I didn't get except for Carter, 334 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 2: except for Jeweler, except for Millan. There was not a 335 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 2: whole lot there for me, all right. 336 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 1: And then I sat through that whole Notre Dave Dave 337 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 1: at night, you know, taking out Texas A and M 338 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 1: and you know I was both quarterbacks. I decided to 339 00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 1: see him. Riley Leonard ran the ball really well. I 340 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 1: thought Notre Dame's running backs I thought had a couple 341 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 1: of nice moments, but otherwise not A ton jumped out 342 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 1: to me there, Tony No, I. 343 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 2: Mean, you know, Riley Leonard talked about Kim Ward how 344 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 2: he has really improved through the years. I don't see 345 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 2: that with Riley Leonard. I see Riley Leonard a good 346 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 2: athlete who plays college quarterback, who's as good, if not better, 347 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 2: running the ball than he is throwing the ball. He 348 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 2: really has never improved or taken the next leap as 349 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 2: a passer as I thought he should have two years ago. Yeah, 350 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 2: he'll make some nice plays on occasion, but there's not 351 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 2: the consistency there. And the game last night was basically 352 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 2: won by the Notre Dame running game. It was those 353 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 2: big runs that got them into the end zone to 354 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 2: start off and then late in the game which sealed 355 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 2: that contest for him. So, you know, I thought Bo Collins, 356 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 2: the receiver, the Clemson transfer who I talked about when 357 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 2: Bruce Velbn was on guy I like a guy who 358 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 2: I think is underrated. He had some big plays for 359 00:16:56,160 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 2: Notre Dame. I think that the Chamar Turner of of 360 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 2: Texas A and M, A big athletic defensive end. Heath flash. 361 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 2: Chamar Turner is this year's version of Edgering Cooper, if 362 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 2: you will. And what I say what I mean by 363 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,239 Speaker 2: that is at this point in time, there weren't too 364 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 2: many people talking about Edgering Cooper. I liked him about 365 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:18,960 Speaker 2: him as a Day two pick, but he you know, 366 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,920 Speaker 2: even really through the process, a lot of people weren't 367 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:26,920 Speaker 2: talking about Edgering Cooper until right before the draft, and 368 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 2: then he ended up as an early second round pick. 369 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 2: I think Chamar Turner, number five, the defensive end who 370 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 2: can also stand up over tackle sixty three and nine pounds, 371 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 2: is going to run the four sevens. I think he's 372 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 2: a similar type of prospect in that no one's talking 373 00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 2: about him, but all of a sudden as we get 374 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,919 Speaker 2: into April, everybody's gonna be in love with Shimart Turner. 375 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 1: Hi Tony before we get to Eric Galki or anything else. 376 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:50,720 Speaker 1: On the weekend. From any other games that you want 377 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,439 Speaker 1: to bring up, uh No, I. 378 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:57,440 Speaker 2: Mean Colorado had its hands full with North Dakota State. 379 00:17:57,560 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 2: I mean that was a fun game to watch. I 380 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 2: like the North Dakota State to left tackle Green, You. 381 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,040 Speaker 1: Should talk about Travis Hunter a little bit, Tony. He 382 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 1: was pretty spectacular. 383 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 2: Well, Greg Gray's able to left tackle. I thought did 384 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 2: a terrific job held his own, was not over matched. 385 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:15,639 Speaker 2: I don't know that he's gonna be a left tackle. 386 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 2: He may have to move into a guard because he's 387 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 2: got short uns. But I thought he did a real 388 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:22,720 Speaker 2: good job. I mean, it's gonna be an interesting conversation 389 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:26,119 Speaker 2: with Travis Hunter a wide receiver or cornerback. I think 390 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 2: he's a much much better wide receiver now, and he 391 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:32,200 Speaker 2: needs a lot of work at the cornerback position. But 392 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:34,880 Speaker 2: there's much more upside and there's, you know, a high 393 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:36,240 Speaker 2: demand at the cornerback position. 394 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, but the salaries are bigger at the wide receiver position, 395 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,680 Speaker 1: which tells me he's probably gonna watch pay wide receiver, Tony. 396 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:42,439 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie. 397 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it was. That was a fun game 398 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 2: to watch. I'm like the notere day of Texas A 399 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:50,960 Speaker 2: and Amgen. That was a fun game to watch. I 400 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:54,159 Speaker 2: thought Shandor Sanders played reasonably well. The one thing I 401 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 2: like about Sanders is he's a lot like cam wardon 402 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:00,159 Speaker 2: that he's very poised and he's very patient. I was 403 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 2: watching the game and I was thinking about this. Everybody 404 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 2: fell in love with Caleb Williams because of his ability 405 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 2: to make off platform throws to improvise when plays breakdown. 406 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 2: Sanders does the same things. But the thing I like 407 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 2: at Sanders is he'll ready himself. He doesn't just make 408 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 2: the throw on the move. He'll run around, He'll buy 409 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 2: time when things break down, He'll improvise, and then he'll 410 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:23,200 Speaker 2: reset himself, scan the field and get the ball off, 411 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 2: which is really why I really like Sanders a lot. Colorado, 412 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 2: I think is going to have a tough goal, but 413 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,960 Speaker 2: this year a brand new offensive line and that was 414 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,680 Speaker 2: their problem last year and they were getting he was 415 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 2: getting hounded this year. Gonna be interesting to see what 416 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 2: happens with that team. But both of those guys, sheet 417 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 2: Dors Sanders and Travis Hunter are gonna be very early 418 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 2: picks and next Sacrals draft. 419 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 1: Moody's is a proud partner of the New York Giants, 420 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,919 Speaker 1: uniting the brightest minds to turn today's risks into tomorrow's opportunities. 421 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 1: Learn more at Moody's dot com.

We talked to him before 424 00:19:59,880 --> 00:20:02,160 Speaker 1: that college football season started, so we don't talk about 425 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:04,640 Speaker 1: anything that's happened so far, but we talk about their 426 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 1: watch list, what the draft class looks like.

We're ready to go 448 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:56,720 Speaker 4: for the season, already. 449 00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 2: Board here running the Shrine Bowl Eric right, better and better. 450 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:02,920 Speaker 2: We're going to be back in Dallas or Frisco this year. 451 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 4: Yep, Yeah, excited back in Dallas this year. It's our 452 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:07,639 Speaker 4: hundredth anniversary of the game, so we thought we'd do 453 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 4: a big and have it at at and T Stadium. 454 00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 4: They're they're in Arlington, Texas too, so I'm really excited 455 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:15,679 Speaker 4: me back in Dallas. It's been a great location. 456 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:16,640 Speaker 2: I think. 457 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:20,399 Speaker 4: I think Vegas, like Dallas, is a great location for media, 458 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,199 Speaker 4: NFL personnel players obviously being an NFL so it's really 459 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,119 Speaker 4: important too when Vegas had its a lures, but I 460 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:28,160 Speaker 4: think Dallas certainly is a whole different brand of where 461 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 4: football really is the most important part of the their 462 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 4: ecosystem down there too. So great to be back in 463 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 4: Dallas fro another year this year and hopefully for the future. 464 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:36,400 Speaker 2: Are the practices still going to be at the Ford Center. 465 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 4: Yep, yep. Sam last year, same hotel, same situation, same setup, 466 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 4: just the game will be at at and T Stadium. 467 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, that is a great setup. I mean all, you know, 468 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:47,879 Speaker 2: everyone fans go to the Senior Bowl, they should definitely 469 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:50,920 Speaker 2: check out the shrineble because at Ford Stadium is terrific. 470 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,119 Speaker 2: It's a smaller stadium, but the seating, it's great to 471 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 2: watch the practices. I stayed at the players Hotel last year. 472 00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:00,880 Speaker 2: It's an easy ride over. It was, you know, more 473 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 2: so than Vegas. It was a real scouting event last 474 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:06,880 Speaker 2: year because Vegas there's so many peripheral things to draw 475 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:10,359 Speaker 2: your attention away, but really appreciated. Want to start off 476 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 2: with a question. You know, late in the process last year, 477 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 2: I should say late in the season. Last year, the 478 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 2: NFL made this grandiose announcement that they will now allow 479 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 2: juniors to play in the postseason All Star Games. I 480 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 2: think at that point last year it didn't matter for 481 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 2: you guys. But how do you attack that moving forward 482 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 2: to twenty twenty five, Because I got to assume you're 483 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 2: talking to seniors now and contacting sceniors about you know, 484 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 2: coming to play in your game, but you really can't 485 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 2: talk to juniors because you know, you don't know what 486 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 2: they're going to do. When junior declaration Day is January fifteenth, 487 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 2: how do you plan that moving forward? 488 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,119 Speaker 4: Yeah, So, I mean even a year ago, this had 489 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 4: been building for a little while. And I'll tell you, guys, 490 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 4: when I first took over to the Shrine Bowl, Jesez 491 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 4: say four years now, fields not that long ago. But 492 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:59,159 Speaker 4: whenever I took over, you know, my first question when 493 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 4: I first watch the league was why do we have 494 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 4: this rule? 495 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 2: Right? 496 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 4: We just it happened for so long, like why was 497 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 4: it a thing? Why was even a barrier? And obviously 498 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:08,720 Speaker 4: the reason was that they didn't want an incentivized juniors 499 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 4: to come out. And my point of view is say, 500 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:13,359 Speaker 4: it's not about incentivising guys to come out. It's about 501 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:17,159 Speaker 4: giving players options to consider when they look ahead, right, 502 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,359 Speaker 4: And I'm a big player advocate. Always happened to my 503 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,120 Speaker 4: approach to this job. That's why are focus is having 504 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 4: a best in class event for players. So even a 505 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 4: year ago, I told the league office when they kind 506 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 4: of eventually pushed it through, and I've already told them, hey, 507 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:29,880 Speaker 4: I didn't love announcing it when they did it created 508 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,199 Speaker 4: a lot of confusion, and I told them a lot 509 00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 4: of people are calling myself and Jim Naggy not call 510 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:36,880 Speaker 4: them league officers when they have questions. So it ended 511 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 4: up being a lot of headache for people that are 512 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 4: in our world versus in the league office world. But 513 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 4: the premise of it is fantastic and I think it's 514 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 4: what it's allowed us to do a year ago and 515 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,679 Speaker 4: even more so this year, is to provide information to players. 516 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:48,919 Speaker 2: Right. 517 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,360 Speaker 4: I believe that if you get players all the best information, 518 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 4: not biased, not subjective, not inaccurate, they'll make the right 519 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 4: decision for them. For some guys that might be staying 520 00:23:57,880 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 4: in school to improve what they can do on the 521 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:01,440 Speaker 4: for some guys that might be, hey, you know what, 522 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:02,919 Speaker 4: this is a good enough reason me to come out 523 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 4: with the draft and take my chance. So from my 524 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 4: point of view, you know, we were prepared last year 525 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:12,439 Speaker 4: for underclassmen as I expected, not that many underclassmen who 526 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 4: were three year players would play in All Star Games, 527 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,360 Speaker 4: which I think is a good sign that between NIL 528 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 4: and players not being forced to make decisions for money purposes, 529 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 4: as well as giving them information, telling underclassmen, hey, if 530 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 4: you do this, you probably end up going here in 531 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 4: the draft, and that made me not be a good 532 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,359 Speaker 4: decision for you as well too. So I think the 533 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,000 Speaker 4: benefit of this rule, along with you know, maybe having 534 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,479 Speaker 4: more talent for All Star games, is really giving players 535 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:37,119 Speaker 4: more information, more AMMO to know kind of where they 536 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,880 Speaker 4: stand going into So it won't change our process. Really, 537 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:41,920 Speaker 4: we've already got We've got a big board stacked about 538 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:45,200 Speaker 4: seven hundred and fifty players including juniors on it, organized 539 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 4: rank hirocle right now, so we're prepared no matter who 540 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 4: comes out for the draft. But certainly it's going to 541 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 4: be another year of I think agents and players still 542 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:53,479 Speaker 4: oh yeah, I guess I can do this, and kind 543 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:54,720 Speaker 4: of educating them a little bit more. 544 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, and Eric, it's a much different type of class. 545 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: Last year, you know, it was very shit. A lot 546 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:02,879 Speaker 1: of kids went back to school for the bonus COVID year, 547 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:05,879 Speaker 1: for the nil money, things like that. But we're getting 548 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 1: to the point now where the extra COVID year, the 549 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 1: extra red shirts year, is they gonna run out for 550 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 1: a lot of these guys who were summer six year. 551 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 1: I think there was some seven year seniors out there 552 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:15,960 Speaker 1: who got a double red shirt or triple red shirt 553 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 1: in that matter, what does the class look like this year? 554 00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:21,959 Speaker 1: Is it a lot deeper than most because we've kind 555 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,920 Speaker 1: of had the backlog from the COVID year pushing I 556 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:25,679 Speaker 1: think it's deeper. 557 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:28,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it's deeper. I think there's you know, 558 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:29,960 Speaker 4: I think some people were thinking this might be a 559 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 4: double draft. People say that, right, it's too clown pass 560 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:33,679 Speaker 4: the other two and that that won't happen because we'll 561 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 4: have guys go back to school again. We'll have juniors 562 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 4: surprisingly go back to school again too, so I think 563 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 4: it'll be stronger. I think, for example, it's it's weaker 564 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:44,359 Speaker 4: on offensive line compared to last year across the board, 565 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:46,680 Speaker 4: and I think if some juniors come out, then maybe 566 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:48,640 Speaker 4: it gets a little stronger too. But overall then maybe 567 00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 4: a weaker spot. And I think a lot of other 568 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,880 Speaker 4: pstitions are really really strong. So I think this won't 569 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 4: be the offensive dominated draft that it was a year ago. 570 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 4: There'll be more defensive players taken early in the drafts, 571 00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 4: some really special guys at the top two. But I 572 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 4: think it's a deeper class for shore. I think last year, 573 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:06,359 Speaker 4: you know, coming into even the draft process, most teams 574 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:08,679 Speaker 4: felt like, hey, after the first one hundred and seventy 575 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 4: one hundred and eighty guys. We're going to kind of 576 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 4: figure out who we're going to take here. I think 577 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 4: this year'll be a little bit deeper and teams a 578 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:15,480 Speaker 4: gonna be want more guys in the mounts five to 579 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 4: six seven comparter last year. 580 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:20,399 Speaker 2: Two quick questions, and I can't get a straight answer 581 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:23,879 Speaker 2: on this. Is this the final season with the Super 582 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 2: Seniors going back for COVID? I mean, is this the 583 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,480 Speaker 2: last year that's you know, you can say, hey, listen, 584 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 2: this is my COVID year. I'm going to put it? 585 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:33,119 Speaker 2: Or is this going to it? Do you know if 586 00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:36,680 Speaker 2: it's going to extend for college players into twenty twenty five. 587 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 4: My understanding, this is the last year that a COVID, 588 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:41,879 Speaker 4: A player who had an extra year because of COVID 589 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 4: will have that counting on a COVID purposes. Right, So 590 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:47,400 Speaker 4: if a guy red shirted before COVID and then COVID, whell, 591 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:48,959 Speaker 4: maybe he has one more year left as well too. 592 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,400 Speaker 4: But at this point we've kind of extinguished the four 593 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:54,440 Speaker 4: years since COVID, which again hope which make things easier. 594 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 4: But again, the NCAA is going to be lenient on 595 00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 4: red shirt requirements and maybe lean towards. Guys have actually 596 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,200 Speaker 4: years only played four in a one play right, so 597 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 4: there'll still be more opportunities for players to go back 598 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 4: to school. Surprisingly, but from a COVID standpoint, we can 599 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:09,320 Speaker 4: kind of put that in our vocabulary in the past. 600 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 4: I hope for a little while longer at least. 601 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, John said, asked you about the class overall, 602 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 2: I want to ask you about the quarterback position because 603 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:20,639 Speaker 2: last year, when teams are trading up and all the 604 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,159 Speaker 2: quarterbacks were going early, people were saying, well, you get 605 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 2: better get a quarterback in twenty twenty four, because the 606 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 2: quarterback class in twenty twenty five is not going to 607 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:30,920 Speaker 2: be that good. I disagree with that. Yeah, we don't 608 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 2: have a Caleb Williams at the top. We don't have 609 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:35,719 Speaker 2: a Jaden Daniels, But at this point in time last year, 610 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 2: we didn't have Jay didn't Jan Daniel's gonna be good. 611 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 2: I look at this class. I not even like the class. 612 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 2: I see just some incredible potential from some of these guys. 613 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:48,120 Speaker 2: I see. One of the top guys on your list 614 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:52,119 Speaker 2: for the Shrine Bowl one thousand is Jalen Milroe of Alabama, 615 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 2: who I think, you know, if he plays to his 616 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 2: capabilities and he's a little bit more accurate, he's just 617 00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 2: gonna make a meteoric rise up draft boards. 618 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:01,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you're dead right. And I think we 619 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 4: look at things. Hey, is there a Trevor Lawrence or 620 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 4: a Caleb Williams. And it's almost like a receiver room 621 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 4: in the NFL. If you've got a one, you're number two, three, four, 622 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 4: look a lot better, right, If you don't have number 623 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 4: one guy, it's like, I don't know if I have 624 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 4: a good rum or not. I think it feels that way, 625 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 4: and I'm totally with you, Tony. I think there's three 626 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 4: four to five guys who, if they have a kind 627 00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 4: of season and draft process, could be a first overall 628 00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:21,720 Speaker 4: pick type of player. I mean, there's that much talent 629 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 4: I think in this draft class, but a lot of 630 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 4: guys have to prove it right. Shdur Sanders at Colorado 631 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:29,000 Speaker 4: light offensive lines. Gott to play better. Let's se if 632 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 4: he can gearly rise to the occasion, but he's super talented, 633 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:33,399 Speaker 4: drew a lar new offensive system. What can he do? 634 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,880 Speaker 4: Quinn Ewers at Texas another playoff bound season. Maybe he's 635 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 4: a first overall pick kind of guy. There's more and more, 636 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 4: so I think it's a stronger. I think it's deeper 637 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 4: of a class. You saw last year some teams felt 638 00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 4: there were six, maybe seven. Some teams look at the 639 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 4: eight guys if they were on a backup, and that 640 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 4: was kind of fell off a cliff after that. I 641 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 4: think this year we've got seventeen, eighteen, nineteen guys who 642 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 4: will challenge for those twelve draftful spots and maybe more 643 00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 4: at the end of the day. Two and again, to 644 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 4: your point, I think last year we thought Caleb was special, 645 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 4: We thought Drake May was really talented player. We thought 646 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 4: Jane Daniels. Let's see what happens this year. So there 647 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 4: might be two or three Jane Daniels this year by 648 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:07,800 Speaker 4: comparison to last year. 649 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,720 Speaker 1: How was the transfer portal Eric helped or hurt the 650 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 1: evaluation of some of these quarterbacks you saw last year, 651 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 1: Guys like Michael Pennix, guys like Bonix, guy like Jane 652 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 1: and Daniels. They had all this extra experience in multiple systems, 653 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 1: which I think helped their evaluation process a little bit. 654 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think for I mean, for all those guys 655 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 4: you just mentioned, unless I'm mistaken. They all are two 656 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 4: years and a new team and a new system. Yeah, 657 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 4: that makes a big difference. So I think, for one, 658 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 4: I would say this one thing. I think it's been 659 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 4: really cool overall for the transfer portal beyond just quarterbacks, 660 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,400 Speaker 4: and I've seen this talking a more college campus, especially 661 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 4: being on campus the last couple of weeks is guys 662 00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 4: that go into portal they get kind of a new 663 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 4: lease on who they are as a person to the NFL. Right, 664 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 4: when you're in a school for four years, that school 665 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 4: knows the ins and altitude as you were seventeen eighteen 666 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:54,840 Speaker 4: years old, and if you have a guy who had 667 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 4: some ups and downs or some character issues whatever else, 668 00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:00,120 Speaker 4: it's kind of hard to truly overcome them. Go to 669 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 4: a new school and they're like, hey, for us, he's 670 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 4: been incredible. He's been a pro. And I think a 671 00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 4: lot of guys have gotten a new lease on their 672 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 4: character background by doing that. I mean for quarterbacks it's 673 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 4: somewhat similar, not necessarily because the guys have negative character. 674 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 4: If I look at a guy like you know, cam 675 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 4: Ward or Dju at Florida State, guys that are coming 676 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 4: in with huge expectations, but they get to walk in 677 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 4: there and take all the experience they had their last 678 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,480 Speaker 4: stops and kind of put that together on almost a 679 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 4: grad school level, which what they're doing and saying, hey, 680 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 4: I've already learned the answers to the test. I'm gonna 681 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 4: come here fresh start, fresh faces, and make a real impact. 682 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 4: So I think for guys that have a lot of 683 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 4: experience going somewhere for a year or two, they can 684 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:37,800 Speaker 4: really use that experience to their benefit. But I think 685 00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:40,000 Speaker 4: for NFL teams it's tough. I think for quarterback stuff too, 686 00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 4: because they're entering a new system. And in college, especially 687 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:45,800 Speaker 4: if play a team early in the season, early in 688 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 4: conference play, you don't get you know, seventeen weeks, you 689 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 4: get twelve, and you really can't afford to have three 690 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 4: or four bad weeks to start in a new scheme. 691 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 4: So I think quarterbacks it's really tough to transfer and 692 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 4: play year one. But I think college teams are doing 693 00:30:57,840 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 4: a better job of helping these guys set up for success. 694 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 4: But hey, for guys like Cam or DJ or many others, 695 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:05,520 Speaker 4: this is there. They gotta play well week one, week zero, 696 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 4: and they can't afford to wait till we four to 697 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 4: week five to figure things out, Tony, I. 698 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 1: Want to fall up on the quarterbacks real quick, Tony, Well, 699 00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:12,360 Speaker 1: just one question age wise. I know a lot of 700 00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 1: times when people get drafted Eric, they're like, I use 701 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 1: a twenty three year old prospect and I'm not really 702 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:19,960 Speaker 1: excited about that. Do NFL teams view it the same 703 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,160 Speaker 1: way for quarterbacks though, because to me, if you're getting 704 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:24,680 Speaker 1: more of a finished product at quarterback that has all 705 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 1: this all these extra snaps, all this extra experience for me, 706 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 1: that that to me is a positive. How do NFL 707 00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 1: NFL view quarterbacks that come out as older players versus 708 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 1: guys at other positions? 709 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:38,240 Speaker 4: I would say NFL teams differ. I think the collective 710 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 4: wisdom in part because they were forced to because of 711 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:43,120 Speaker 4: COVID a couple of years ago. They've learn to be like, Okay, 712 00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 4: we're okay with this. We don't need age as much. 713 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 4: My personal philosophy is offensive line and quarterback and should 714 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 4: and even defensive back corner especially shouldn't matter. 715 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 2: Right. 716 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 4: We call we call offensive line and corner preventer positions, 717 00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 4: meaning your job is to prevent bad things from happening. 718 00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,480 Speaker 4: In some ways, that's also the quarterback spot. Too, and 719 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:01,400 Speaker 4: that comes with age. And you know, I got a 720 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 4: chance to work with Duke Menuweather and talk to him 721 00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:05,240 Speaker 4: a little bit when I was in the XFL just 722 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 4: four years ago. Now about how do we have good 723 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,160 Speaker 4: offensive line play even for an XFL type league. You 724 00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 4: don't want the upside guys. You want guys who have 725 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 4: played a lot of football. I've seen a lot of 726 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 4: things and gotten better there too, So I think from 727 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:19,920 Speaker 4: the quarterback standpoint, ages is it's more a testament of 728 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,440 Speaker 4: like upside and talent. But man, a guy played four 729 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 4: season of college. You kind of understand now, especially with 730 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:27,719 Speaker 4: how easy some throws are in the NFL and how 731 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 4: hard some throws are in the NFL with between RPOs 732 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 4: now downfield stuff. You see why Bill Parcells had that 733 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 4: three year starter rule coming out. I think it's coming 734 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:37,200 Speaker 4: back in vogue now because the NFL teams just see 735 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 4: if we get a high floor, high IQ experience quarterback 736 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 4: like a rock party, it's easy for our offense to 737 00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 4: have success if we have a guy with the high 738 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:45,360 Speaker 4: floor like that. 739 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:47,360 Speaker 2: You know, I just want to go back to your point. 740 00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 2: You talk about Panics and bon Nick's two guys being 741 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 2: transfers who were in the system for two years, and 742 00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 2: then you got to have a guy like Sam Hartman, 743 00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:56,840 Speaker 2: who really did not do a good job at Notre 744 00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 2: Dame last year, probably had his play better when he 745 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,160 Speaker 2: was at Wake for US. I want to talk about 746 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 2: two edge rushers that you have on your list coming 747 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 2: out of Baylor. Steve Lina started at Syracuse, went to 748 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:10,959 Speaker 2: Texas Tech, it's now finishing up his career at Baylor. 749 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,520 Speaker 2: A guy that's athletic, but a guy that struggled with 750 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 2: the injuries, and he's a very athletic guy, not just 751 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:18,840 Speaker 2: an edge rusher, can play off the line of scrimmage. 752 00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:21,440 Speaker 2: And then someone who's going he's going to be playing 753 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 2: with this year, Garmin Randolph. I know you can't say it, 754 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 2: but I'll say it looks like Tarzan plays like Jane. 755 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:30,480 Speaker 2: I mean, this guy's got the computer numbers that blows 756 00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:33,080 Speaker 2: you away. He'll make a while play once in a while, 757 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:35,120 Speaker 2: yet there's no consistency in his game. 758 00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 4: I think it's important for those two types of guys 759 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:39,320 Speaker 4: that there are two great examples of guys that if 760 00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:41,600 Speaker 4: they didn't play this college She's and didn't play the 761 00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:43,760 Speaker 4: whole college career and just went to the combine, you'd 762 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:45,800 Speaker 4: be like, this guy has so much talent. I think 763 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 4: both those players would even tell you a lot of 764 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 4: me and the bow left to get better. And I 765 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 4: think for both those guys and for edge rushers in general, 766 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 4: is the athleticism matters a lot, maybe maybe more than 767 00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 4: anything else. Right, it's a weird scouting aspect, but like 768 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 4: as an edge rusher, you've got to you're really impressive 769 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,600 Speaker 4: out they'd be successful, But if you can't finish in 770 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:05,640 Speaker 4: the backfield, I think Steve Letton a couple of games 771 00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:08,680 Speaker 4: last year where off a snap looks awesome gets eaten 772 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:10,799 Speaker 4: up by a six three, six to four offensive tackle 773 00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:12,799 Speaker 4: in space. Right, Hey, that can't happen when you're that tall, 774 00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 4: that athletic. I think Garment Randolph, same thing, Bowen a 775 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:18,680 Speaker 4: China shop comes downhill, can adjust, can't finish on the quarterback. 776 00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:20,839 Speaker 4: And I think for edge rushers like those two guys 777 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:24,360 Speaker 4: putting together a seven eight SAX season, even if for 778 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:26,920 Speaker 4: of those sacks are against an SCS team, show NFL 779 00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:29,320 Speaker 4: teams you can finish in the backfield, because if you 780 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 4: could just show you can finish and have some production 781 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:35,000 Speaker 4: as a techo philosopher, sack guy with their athletic traits. 782 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:36,840 Speaker 4: Teams will bet on those and say, hey, it's the 783 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:38,960 Speaker 4: worst case. I'll put Steve on my practice squad for 784 00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:41,120 Speaker 4: a year, He'll get my offensive line havoc and then 785 00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 4: see what he is at for a year. But I 786 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:45,040 Speaker 4: think for both those guys the ceiling is super high. Tony, 787 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 4: You're dead right. But both those guys need to have 788 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:49,800 Speaker 4: a five, six, seven, ideally an eight plus SAX season 789 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:51,680 Speaker 4: to really reach the potential in the NFL. 790 00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:53,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, I want to stick on the edge Routger, Sure. 791 00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 2: Eric. 792 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:56,320 Speaker 1: One guy I really liked is another trans for Nick Scorton, 793 00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:58,719 Speaker 1: who's going from Perdue to Texas A and M. I 794 00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:00,719 Speaker 1: think you watch this tape of Purdue last year. He 795 00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:02,879 Speaker 1: is the athleticism and the strength in the power. Look, 796 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:04,720 Speaker 1: he's two Sixti's not one of these like two hundred 797 00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,880 Speaker 1: and forty pound, you know, converted linebackers to an edge player. 798 00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:10,319 Speaker 1: Your take on him and what you think you can 799 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 1: do in a new spot in Texas A and M. 800 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 1: And then I think you kind of referenced this in 801 00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:15,960 Speaker 1: reference to the first question, do you consider edge the 802 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:17,920 Speaker 1: strength of this draft class? We have one edge guy 803 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:19,880 Speaker 1: going the top ten last year. I think you can 804 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 1: have three or four maybe go this year. 805 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:23,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, we get one of a lot of edge guys. 806 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 4: I think a lot of interior defensive line players too. 807 00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 4: Those are two of the stronger spots in this year's 808 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:30,160 Speaker 4: draft class. On Nick, I think his athleticism playing space 809 00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:31,719 Speaker 4: but also be able to win in the B gap 810 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:34,400 Speaker 4: and penetrate as a run defender. As a pass rusher 811 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 4: kind of lows and be really opened up there. He's 812 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 4: going to benefit a lot from a really strong interier 813 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,040 Speaker 4: defensive line group at Texas A and M. That's one 814 00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:43,600 Speaker 4: area that I think is sometimes underappreciate is that when 815 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:46,120 Speaker 4: you've got great d tackle, especially in college, you can 816 00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:48,480 Speaker 4: be more free wheeling and aggressive as a pass rusher 817 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 4: when you don't have to work with the B gap 818 00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:51,200 Speaker 4: or the A gap as much as other guys have to. 819 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:53,399 Speaker 4: So I think for Nick, he'll be able to play 820 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:56,400 Speaker 4: even more loose, even more creative as an edge rusher 821 00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:58,959 Speaker 4: at AM but super super talented has first round trades 822 00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:01,399 Speaker 4: for short seat puts together this year. I think age 823 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:02,839 Speaker 4: is a really strong class, though, I think the edge 824 00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:05,920 Speaker 4: rusher position the defensive tackle spot were two spots not 825 00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:07,879 Speaker 4: very strong a year ago. I know, from our point 826 00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,800 Speaker 4: of view, hey, are there fifteen sixteen edge rushers that 827 00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 4: could be draft picks? Hey? At D tackle, are there 828 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,359 Speaker 4: sevent to eighteen guys that we feel confident or draft picks? 829 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:17,640 Speaker 4: And we know based off history those teams each have 830 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:20,360 Speaker 4: in the twenties in terms of overall drafted players. But 831 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:22,200 Speaker 4: when teams are really struggling to find those guys, it 832 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:24,320 Speaker 4: gets tough. In this year's class, if you need d 833 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:26,440 Speaker 4: line help, you'll have plenty of options, not only in 834 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:28,680 Speaker 4: rounds one, two, three, but four, five, sixty seven this year. 835 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:31,480 Speaker 2: For sure, I want to go to the cornerback class 836 00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:33,719 Speaker 2: for a second. I mean last year's cornerback class at 837 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:35,920 Speaker 2: the Shrine Bowl was outstanding. I mean you had the 838 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:39,680 Speaker 2: two kids from Florida State who you know, just knocked 839 00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:43,000 Speaker 2: everybody out, and then you had contest Sniggers from the 840 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:46,120 Speaker 2: to Ron Argonaut's Yeah exactly, you know by way of 841 00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:48,719 Speaker 2: the Vision one double a school, and John and I 842 00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:50,920 Speaker 2: were there all three days watching Stiggers just shut it 843 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:54,239 Speaker 2: everybody down. Who are some of the guys on your 844 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 2: list that people will not talk to not talking about now, 845 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,080 Speaker 2: they probably won't talk about too much, you know, during 846 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:04,160 Speaker 2: the season. Then we'll go to Shrine Bowl practice and 847 00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:07,080 Speaker 2: just blow it up. So Eric Gaalaco could say, see, 848 00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:07,920 Speaker 2: I called. 849 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:10,520 Speaker 4: You, well, I wish I knew who a is gonna 850 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:12,000 Speaker 4: be in the Sharers draft class and who's gonna be 851 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:13,040 Speaker 4: at the Shrine Ball this year, and you make my 852 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:15,640 Speaker 4: life a lot easier. But I think it's I would 853 00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:17,360 Speaker 4: say it's you know, even last year with guys like 854 00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:19,279 Speaker 4: Miles Harden, who had a great week of practice and 855 00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:21,359 Speaker 4: great college some and he's now gonna be starting nickel 856 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:23,040 Speaker 4: in Cleveland. It's by being a six round pick. And 857 00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:25,160 Speaker 4: there are more guys that I think when later on draft, 858 00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:26,760 Speaker 4: I thought that did a great job week of practice 859 00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:28,520 Speaker 4: and was a big fan of as well too. I 860 00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:31,000 Speaker 4: think from just overall just naming some players, not just 861 00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:33,759 Speaker 4: dodging the question, I think Virginia Tech's defensive back room 862 00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:37,319 Speaker 4: is outstanding. They've got Dorian Strong, They've got Dean, They've 863 00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:40,359 Speaker 4: got Galen Stroman at safety as well to really strong group. 864 00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 4: I'm excited to go out at Virginia Tech game and 865 00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:44,879 Speaker 4: see those guys in person as well. The Kansas duo 866 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 4: Kobe Bryant and Mellow Dotson. I know Kansas is not 867 00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:49,719 Speaker 4: known for being a big dB hub. We had Kenny 868 00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:52,399 Speaker 4: Logan a year ago from Kansas, but both those guys 869 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:54,640 Speaker 4: are really strong. I think that Kansas defense is going 870 00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:56,319 Speaker 4: to be really talented this year for sure. And then 871 00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:59,319 Speaker 4: Ohio State. Ohio State talking to even scouts have been 872 00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:02,239 Speaker 4: through there. They've got three corners and none of them 873 00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:04,800 Speaker 4: may be Nickels in the NFL. Three outside level corners 874 00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:06,440 Speaker 4: who are all draft picks this year. In the draft, 875 00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:08,279 Speaker 4: we'll see who comes out or not too so I 876 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:09,880 Speaker 4: think those are the three schools I'll be looking for 877 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 4: for some of the top dB talent. But everginga tech 878 00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 4: team a lot a lot of talent in that receiver 879 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:16,920 Speaker 4: room dB room and much more as well too. 880 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:19,120 Speaker 1: Are we always joke on this show that all these 881 00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:21,359 Speaker 1: really athletic kids want to go be wide receivers, where 882 00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:23,239 Speaker 1: you got wide receiver rooms that are four or five 883 00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:25,640 Speaker 1: players deep, where five would start on a lot of 884 00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 1: other teams, or we finally seeing some of these kids 885 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:29,360 Speaker 1: get wise and say, you know what, I'm gonna go 886 00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:31,959 Speaker 1: play corner instead because I could be like the second 887 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 1: best quarter on the team and get drafted in the 888 00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:36,279 Speaker 1: second round rather than being like wide receiver, you know, 889 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:37,520 Speaker 1: fourteen on the board. 890 00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 4: You know, I was always surprised when when more guys 891 00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:42,480 Speaker 4: that want to be DB's After Daryl Reevs, I thought 892 00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 4: Revis was an icon the NFL when he played so dominant. 893 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:46,359 Speaker 4: I thought, Hey, I want to go be a corner. 894 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:48,760 Speaker 4: Shut these guys down. Maybe it's a soft Gardener effect, 895 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 4: but I totally agree. I think more or more guys 896 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 4: want to play corner in and there's I think teams 897 00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:55,400 Speaker 4: have realized, Hey, especially in the college level now too, 898 00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:58,319 Speaker 4: as a trickle back down, Hey, there's too many big, long, 899 00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:01,440 Speaker 4: athletic receivers. We got to find big long athletic corners 900 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:03,719 Speaker 4: and not just guys who are too stiff to play receiver, 901 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 4: guys who are on their own right really really impressive, 902 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:07,680 Speaker 4: really athletic. And then think, this raft class has a 903 00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:09,560 Speaker 4: good number of guys who are six to one and 904 00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:12,879 Speaker 4: above at corner, who are outside guys. Again, in the past, 905 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:15,799 Speaker 4: it was the stiff, high cut guys that couldn't play receiver. 906 00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:18,319 Speaker 4: More and more really impressive out at receiver. And hey, 907 00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:20,600 Speaker 4: I think part of that too is salaries at corner. 908 00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:22,280 Speaker 4: Going up, we saw a lot of guys this offseason 909 00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,000 Speaker 4: get more and more and it's not quite receival lever money, 910 00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 4: but it's getting the pretty quickly to do. And it 911 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:29,319 Speaker 4: makes sense. You're defending these guys who are making thirty 912 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:30,799 Speaker 4: million dollars a year. I want to make thirty million 913 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 4: dollars a year too. So it's a really strong cornerback class. 914 00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:36,719 Speaker 4: Guys at the top like Travis Hunter, Will Johnson among others. 915 00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:38,239 Speaker 4: But I think the depth there is pretty strong and 916 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:40,160 Speaker 4: again a lot more size this year than in recent years. 917 00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:42,319 Speaker 2: Oh, if you make thirty million a year, make sure 918 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:44,520 Speaker 2: you send some my way in John's way as well. 919 00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 2: We'll you know, you talked about the strong defensive back 920 00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:53,680 Speaker 2: room at Virginia Tech. Miami of Florida has got some 921 00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:57,520 Speaker 2: decent receivers. Restrepbow Returns. He's more of a slot guy. 922 00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 2: Return specialist Sam Brown from Houston, a guy that no 923 00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:05,480 Speaker 2: one talks about transferred over there. He's a well built receiver, 924 00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:09,839 Speaker 2: very natural, very fluid, good I hand coordination, I mean. 925 00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:11,719 Speaker 2: And these are two guys that are on your list. 926 00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:14,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, and Jacobe George the third receiver as well too, 927 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:17,960 Speaker 4: who's really impressed. Slot is the guy who could be 928 00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:20,640 Speaker 4: really impressive downfield too. You know, I think Sam Brown 929 00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:23,040 Speaker 4: is funny. I think I tweeted about Sam Brown a 930 00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:25,600 Speaker 4: couple of weeks ago, and I don't check my mentions 931 00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:25,960 Speaker 4: too often. 932 00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:26,880 Speaker 2: I saw their like. 933 00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:27,920 Speaker 4: I think I put in tweet that he was a 934 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:31,080 Speaker 4: highly recruited player in the transfer portal. I just assumed 935 00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:33,360 Speaker 4: he was. He's a talented player at Houston West Virginia. 936 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,000 Speaker 4: I guess he wasn't really well known in the meantime, 937 00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:37,879 Speaker 4: But you're dead right, Tony. He's got maybe the most 938 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:41,319 Speaker 4: easy projected upside of those three guys because he has 939 00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:43,960 Speaker 4: the size, the outside of ability can play probably gunner 940 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:45,560 Speaker 4: and special teams pretty quickly as well too. But I 941 00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:47,320 Speaker 4: think he'll be a really important piece of that offense. 942 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:51,239 Speaker 4: Vertically brillian, impressive vertical receiver with that size, ability to 943 00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:54,000 Speaker 4: play downfield, that physical nature, He'll be their vertical guy. 944 00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:57,240 Speaker 4: I think Xavier Shrepo one of the most reliable, probably 945 00:40:57,320 --> 00:40:59,320 Speaker 4: third down or second and long receivers you can ask for. 946 00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:02,200 Speaker 4: I think he fits perfectly with what cam Ward wants 947 00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:04,320 Speaker 4: to do as an improvisor, look down field, attack and 948 00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:07,000 Speaker 4: hit Ristrepo and then Jacoby George. He kind of pass 949 00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:09,040 Speaker 4: to mentioned him as well too, but one of the 950 00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:12,640 Speaker 4: most impressive, twitchy route runners in the country from the 951 00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:15,520 Speaker 4: Zeo slav receiver. I mean, when he's on and he's 952 00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:17,680 Speaker 4: feeling comfortable in the offense, he can really get separation 953 00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:20,040 Speaker 4: as ball as anybody in the country. There are flashes 954 00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:22,359 Speaker 4: a year ago where he looks like Tank Dell out 955 00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:23,920 Speaker 4: there at times. How much separation you can get as 956 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:25,879 Speaker 4: quickly as he could too. So it's a really good 957 00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:27,640 Speaker 4: three wide receiver set. I think all those guys have 958 00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:29,399 Speaker 4: a great chance to be drafted. And I think there's 959 00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:33,000 Speaker 4: between those three and Damian Martinez, that running back from 960 00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:35,480 Speaker 4: Miami and that offensive line. That Miami offense, It's could 961 00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:36,839 Speaker 4: make pretty fun this year. But up to see if 962 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:38,040 Speaker 4: they can make it work with cam Orton. 963 00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:40,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, I've got two questions on the wide receivers. The 964 00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:43,280 Speaker 1: first one Eric was talking about old Miss Trey Harris. 965 00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:44,480 Speaker 1: He's a guy that we kind of talked a little 966 00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:46,800 Speaker 1: about last year too. Yeah, and I just think that 967 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:48,759 Speaker 1: offense is going to be so good. I mean I 968 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:50,440 Speaker 1: looked at your watches. I think you have twenty ole 969 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:53,400 Speaker 1: miss players on it. So they have a good quarterback. 970 00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:55,239 Speaker 1: They had a lot of trances. They have a good 971 00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:58,799 Speaker 1: offensive system there. Charlie Weiss's kid is calling the offense there. 972 00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:02,000 Speaker 1: I just think that, you know, the old tide lifting 973 00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:03,759 Speaker 1: all boats thing. I think that offense is going to 974 00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:04,920 Speaker 1: be so good now. We're gonna see a lot of 975 00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:07,160 Speaker 1: All MISS players go in this draft, no doubt. 976 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:08,520 Speaker 4: And they've done a great job in the I think 977 00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:11,320 Speaker 4: they had eighteen players in the portal that are on 978 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:13,239 Speaker 4: their two deep depth chart, so they've got a ton 979 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:14,600 Speaker 4: of depth there as well too. And it's one of 980 00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:16,239 Speaker 4: those things where I think some team were saying, oh, 981 00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:18,960 Speaker 4: is that too many guys? I think those practices at 982 00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:22,040 Speaker 4: All Miss have been great so far this camp, right, 983 00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:26,000 Speaker 4: it's good on good. It's twenty guys, twenty two guys 984 00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:28,680 Speaker 4: in they're too deep who think their NFL players now 985 00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:30,680 Speaker 4: or in the near future. I think it's great for competition. 986 00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:31,920 Speaker 4: All those guys have got a lot better than those 987 00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:34,400 Speaker 4: practices have been outstanding so far. You mentioned Trey Harris, 988 00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 4: a guy that I think could come out a year 989 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:37,439 Speaker 4: ago would have been a third fourth round pick at worst, 990 00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:39,400 Speaker 4: could be higher. I think them want to see that 991 00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:41,399 Speaker 4: offense with a guy like Jackson Dart, who I guess 992 00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:43,640 Speaker 4: you had to see at Manny Passi Academy, and that 993 00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:46,480 Speaker 4: arm is real. He's gotten better as a pocket navigator. 994 00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:49,400 Speaker 4: He's better off off balance and moving to his left 995 00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 4: than he wasn't even a year ago two. So, between 996 00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:54,799 Speaker 4: Jackson Trey Harris, the depth and that offensive line one 997 00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:56,360 Speaker 4: of the best in the SEC probably this year. In 998 00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:58,040 Speaker 4: terms of depth. If they lose one or two guys, 999 00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:00,439 Speaker 4: they're okay, but a lot of front end talent as well, 1000 00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:02,239 Speaker 4: and the running back room is still going to be strong. 1001 00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:04,560 Speaker 4: Even with Shaw Jenkins leaving, They've got two or three 1002 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:07,040 Speaker 4: guys they'll be impressive as well too. So I would 1003 00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:10,640 Speaker 4: say ole Miss is the deepest team in college football 1004 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:12,839 Speaker 4: this year, and they have the upper level talent as 1005 00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:15,200 Speaker 4: well too. I think in terms of the upper level guys, 1006 00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:17,919 Speaker 4: how many you know, blue chip future first second round guys. 1007 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:20,759 Speaker 4: Maybe the Georgias of them haven't beat but ole Miss 1008 00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:22,879 Speaker 4: is going to have a lot of staying powers entire season. 1009 00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:25,400 Speaker 4: An SEC play You've got to have depth win the SEC, 1010 00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:26,759 Speaker 4: and I think they have the most of any team 1011 00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:27,480 Speaker 4: in the country this year. 1012 00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:29,719 Speaker 1: All right, My second question on the wide receivers are 1013 00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:32,120 Speaker 1: real quick. We're not going to see a lot of 1014 00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:34,600 Speaker 1: classes with three top ten wide receivers like last year 1015 00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:36,080 Speaker 1: and three guys that could have been top five wide 1016 00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:38,279 Speaker 1: receivers quite frankly, Yeah, so we're not going to have 1017 00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:40,160 Speaker 1: that in this year's class. But do we ever really 1018 00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:44,560 Speaker 1: gonna see classes that don't have good wide receiver depth anymore? 1019 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:46,480 Speaker 1: With all these teams that are thrown at, all these 1020 00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:48,840 Speaker 1: players that play wide receivers seven on seven, all that 1021 00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:51,360 Speaker 1: sort of stuff, are we ever going to have a classhere? 1022 00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:53,240 Speaker 1: We're like, yeah, this is a pretty weak wide receiver class. 1023 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,720 Speaker 1: I just haven't seen one in what seems like forever. 1024 00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:57,800 Speaker 4: We've got to be getting close, at least to the 1025 00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:00,919 Speaker 4: point where receivers almost become deep value, because it feels 1026 00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:03,120 Speaker 4: like every year there's four or five guys, plus there's 1027 00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:04,879 Speaker 4: a handful of Day two picks and Day three picks. 1028 00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:07,120 Speaker 4: I mentioned Tank Dell earlier, right, Like, Tank Dell was 1029 00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:09,640 Speaker 4: a fourth round pick and he's the Texans number three 1030 00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:11,480 Speaker 4: receiver this year. Right, it's unbelievable. 1031 00:44:11,520 --> 00:44:13,920 Speaker 1: So Troy Fialand went in the fourth round last year. 1032 00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:17,160 Speaker 1: The guy had fifteen hundred receiver works at Oregon. Who's ridiculous? 1033 00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:19,719 Speaker 4: Right, one hundred percent. So I think there's there's gonna 1034 00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:22,440 Speaker 4: be maybe a miss a change and evaluation, but this 1035 00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:25,239 Speaker 4: year is not going to be weak either at receiver, right, 1036 00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:27,319 Speaker 4: I mean, Luther Burden leads away, but there's plenty of depth. 1037 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:30,080 Speaker 4: If you call Travis Hunter receiver, which I think he's both. 1038 00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:31,799 Speaker 4: I think he's a receiver and a corner, and he's 1039 00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:34,759 Speaker 4: the best. He's probably the number two or three ranked receiver, 1040 00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:37,000 Speaker 4: a number one clearly rest corner in the country, and 1041 00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:38,759 Speaker 4: it might be number one at both those by the 1042 00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:40,160 Speaker 4: end of the season as well too. We'll have more 1043 00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:41,920 Speaker 4: guys this year as well too. When I think the 1044 00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:44,279 Speaker 4: logic goes is like, hey, there's there's still teams lacking 1045 00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:46,719 Speaker 4: the number one, number two receiver. But you're dead right, John, 1046 00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:48,560 Speaker 4: We've had too many good years in a row of 1047 00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:51,279 Speaker 4: incredible receiver talent, and I think that's going to keep 1048 00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:51,960 Speaker 4: coming this year too. 1049 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:54,520 Speaker 2: That's also a reflection of the college game. Because the 1050 00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 2: college game is so widespread and you know, pass happy 1051 00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:00,160 Speaker 2: orient did they just put the best death though a 1052 00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:02,440 Speaker 2: lot of the best athletes at the wide receiver position. 1053 00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,440 Speaker 2: It just translates to the NFL. You know, you're talking 1054 00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:07,960 Speaker 2: about Mississippi before. The funny thing about Mississippi is if 1055 00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:10,879 Speaker 2: you look at their transfer portal, they raided so many 1056 00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:16,000 Speaker 2: other SEC schools and brought players in another school that's 1057 00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:18,480 Speaker 2: pretty deep. I would expect to see a lot of 1058 00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:21,560 Speaker 2: representation at the Shrineble also did a good job in 1059 00:45:21,640 --> 00:45:26,680 Speaker 2: the transfer portal. Or the Oregon Ducks. I mean potential 1060 00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:30,120 Speaker 2: top talent in Connorley and Jordan Birch, but I mean 1061 00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:33,880 Speaker 2: a lot of debt. They're good running backs, and I 1062 00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:35,480 Speaker 2: would expect to see a lot of those guys, or 1063 00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:38,600 Speaker 2: at least a few of those guys in Frisco in January. 1064 00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:40,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean Jordan Burch's the guy that almost came 1065 00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:42,960 Speaker 4: out a year ago. Super talent defensive lineman could be 1066 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:45,240 Speaker 4: a versatile guy at Johnny Corneli. As for their offensive 1067 00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:47,719 Speaker 4: lineman who transferred there a year ago. Now it's a 1068 00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:50,359 Speaker 4: second year in that offense. Really talent offensive lineman. Two. 1069 00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:51,800 Speaker 4: I'll tell you the one guy you mentioned all the 1070 00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:54,400 Speaker 4: talent they have on the offensive line, Connolly is a 1071 00:45:54,440 --> 00:45:57,080 Speaker 4: great player at Johnny Cornella. As I mentioned the running backs, 1072 00:45:57,440 --> 00:46:00,239 Speaker 4: I'm excited to see what the quarterback does. I think 1073 00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:02,759 Speaker 4: it's people have kind of you know, Dylan Gabriel's I 1074 00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:04,480 Speaker 4: got a little bit of I dare to compare him 1075 00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:06,320 Speaker 4: to Brock Purty because he's he's the holy girl of 1076 00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:09,160 Speaker 4: the Shrine Bowl here now. But but but Dylan seen 1077 00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:12,000 Speaker 4: played a lot of football. He's played different offenses and 1078 00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:14,000 Speaker 4: had success and a lot of these faces. And Dylan 1079 00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:16,279 Speaker 4: Gabriel is going to walk into an Oregon offense that 1080 00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:18,719 Speaker 4: has plenty of talent, but he's going to be the 1081 00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:21,440 Speaker 4: one in controlling the charge. And again seeing him this 1082 00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:24,000 Speaker 4: rewatching this film after a year ago. You know, last year, 1083 00:46:24,040 --> 00:46:26,359 Speaker 4: he was kind of locked in on the transfer portal, 1084 00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:27,839 Speaker 4: so we didn't really consider him for the Shrine Bowl 1085 00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:29,560 Speaker 4: too too much. We obviously spoke with him on the team, 1086 00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:31,480 Speaker 4: but he was kind of wanted to go someplace else, 1087 00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:33,200 Speaker 4: which was good. Moving Oregon's gonna be a hell of 1088 00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:35,640 Speaker 4: a team this year. But I think the way people 1089 00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:37,120 Speaker 4: are going to talk about him is like, oh, Dylan 1090 00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:39,719 Speaker 4: Gabriel been around for a while, good college quarterback, whatever else, 1091 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:41,360 Speaker 4: And I think they only wake up a little bit 1092 00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:43,200 Speaker 4: that he might be a real NFL quarterback as well too. 1093 00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:47,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, and he's going to dictate. I believe he'll dictate 1094 00:46:47,160 --> 00:46:50,080 Speaker 2: how well or how does how not as good that 1095 00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:51,640 Speaker 2: Oregon does because he's got to go down with the 1096 00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:53,480 Speaker 2: gate high And I agree with you. I mean, I've 1097 00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:55,040 Speaker 2: got a late round great. I don't know, I've tucked 1098 00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:58,160 Speaker 2: the scouts. They say free agent, free agent, but not 1099 00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:00,799 Speaker 2: the biggest guy in the world. But the I mean, 1100 00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:03,600 Speaker 2: he just stees it. You know, he understands what's going on. 1101 00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:07,439 Speaker 2: He doesn't make bad decisions, no doubt, no doubt. 1102 00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:09,759 Speaker 1: All right, you want to go defensive tackle, Eric, You 1103 00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:11,600 Speaker 1: mentioned that as being one of the stronger positions in 1104 00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:15,239 Speaker 1: the class, and look, you don't get defensive tackles. We 1105 00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:17,279 Speaker 1: could have three in the top ten here this year. 1106 00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:17,680 Speaker 2: I think. 1107 00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:20,960 Speaker 1: You know, everyone talks about the two Michigan guys. They've 1108 00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:22,640 Speaker 1: had so many good defensive line and come out these 1109 00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:25,120 Speaker 1: might be their too, best, at least inside coming out 1110 00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:29,279 Speaker 1: this year. And then you watch Dion Walker from Kentucky play, 1111 00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:32,200 Speaker 1: and I get the pleasure of watching Dexter Lawrence here 1112 00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:35,520 Speaker 1: every day, so I understand the gravity of the statement 1113 00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:38,080 Speaker 1: about to make that dude is as big and moves 1114 00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:40,239 Speaker 1: as well as Dexter Lawrence does, and big guys that 1115 00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:41,920 Speaker 1: size are not supposed to move like that. 1116 00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:44,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, the two mission guys and Walker are a little 1117 00:47:44,520 --> 00:47:46,520 Speaker 4: bit different, but no, don on Walker, I think again 1118 00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:49,600 Speaker 4: you have the experience of seeing it. Just how impactful 1119 00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:52,840 Speaker 4: someone who can dominate the A gap on first, second, 1120 00:47:52,880 --> 00:47:54,720 Speaker 4: and third down. I mean, it's so hard to find. 1121 00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:56,879 Speaker 4: It's so important. Again, I know a couple of years 1122 00:47:56,880 --> 00:47:58,480 Speaker 4: ago we've had the tackles from the Shrine Bowl that 1123 00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:00,480 Speaker 4: go third, four to fifth round. People like, wow, that 1124 00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:02,520 Speaker 4: feels really high. It's like you just can't find humans 1125 00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:05,000 Speaker 4: that big that can move like that. And Lawrence obviously 1126 00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:06,879 Speaker 4: a unicorn in that way too, but Walker is the same. 1127 00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:08,680 Speaker 4: And I think Walker so I thought that he can play, 1128 00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:10,800 Speaker 4: you know, in the B gap and maybe move outside 1129 00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:13,239 Speaker 4: situationally too. It can really penetrate and finish up field too. 1130 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:16,040 Speaker 4: But I think that the need the last year not 1131 00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:18,560 Speaker 4: being the best that might be the best pot on 1132 00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:20,600 Speaker 4: the in the in the draft and defensive tackle. I 1133 00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:23,040 Speaker 4: think that's where teams want to over correct there. But 1134 00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:26,480 Speaker 4: Mason Graham incredible production of his whole college career. He's 1135 00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:29,120 Speaker 4: been a guy they knew at Michigan, like day one 1136 00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:31,200 Speaker 4: of his freshman year, like, oh man, we got a 1137 00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:33,440 Speaker 4: guy a year they knew so quickly on how he's 1138 00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:36,280 Speaker 4: doing in practice. So between Graham, Walker, Grant super impressive, 1139 00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:39,120 Speaker 4: Tyler Williams a Norther impressed guy, I could play interior 1140 00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:40,880 Speaker 4: as well to Florida State's got a whole bunch of 1141 00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:43,960 Speaker 4: defensive tackles and defensive lineman too. It's a really strong 1142 00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:46,120 Speaker 4: defensive tide class at the top. And then again we're 1143 00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:48,440 Speaker 4: stacking our board and we're kind of expecting, Hey, who 1144 00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:51,000 Speaker 4: are the twenty twenty five guys may want to consider, 1145 00:48:51,040 --> 00:48:52,719 Speaker 4: And we've got more than twenty five guys we like 1146 00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:54,680 Speaker 4: at DT tackle this year, which is a big farcrive 1147 00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:56,879 Speaker 4: from the year ago when it was hey, eighteen ninety 1148 00:48:56,920 --> 00:48:58,799 Speaker 4: twenty guys maybe can make it. This is the twenty 1149 00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:01,359 Speaker 4: five plus kind of depth men tackle, which is huge. 1150 00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:03,920 Speaker 2: I'm gonna mention a guy at that position that a 1151 00:49:03,960 --> 00:49:05,640 Speaker 2: lot of people don't talk about it. I love talking 1152 00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:08,239 Speaker 2: about him the year before before they're ready to bust out, 1153 00:49:08,280 --> 00:49:10,200 Speaker 2: and this guy's ready to bust out. I watched him 1154 00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:13,440 Speaker 2: as a sophomore at IOWA made progress in his game 1155 00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:16,160 Speaker 2: last year. Yah Yah Black, I mean sixty five and 1156 00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:18,720 Speaker 2: a half three hundred and thirty three pounds very athletic, 1157 00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:22,520 Speaker 2: more than a gap occupier on your list. On your 1158 00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:24,920 Speaker 2: list is one of the top Iowa guys for the Shrine. 1159 00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:27,720 Speaker 4: Ball, no doubt tracks are in high school. Super impressive 1160 00:49:27,719 --> 00:49:29,279 Speaker 4: athlete in high school as well too. I think he 1161 00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:32,160 Speaker 4: is going to benefit from We saw him last year 1162 00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:33,680 Speaker 4: at Logan Lee at the Trimbowl a year ago. Talked 1163 00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:35,960 Speaker 4: to Logan quite a bit about kind of impressive Yahya 1164 00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:37,879 Speaker 4: could be as a playmaker and he guy could play 1165 00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:39,719 Speaker 4: again and he could play outside on subpack. It just 1166 00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:41,520 Speaker 4: can play inside, can penetrate up field as well too. 1167 00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:43,520 Speaker 4: But I think he'll be one of the more at 1168 00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:46,359 Speaker 4: higher athletic testing defensive tackles in this year's draft class. 1169 00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:48,120 Speaker 4: And we could have some real freaks to see here 1170 00:49:48,120 --> 00:49:51,000 Speaker 4: at defensive tackle. In terms of guys, wouldn't say challenging 1171 00:49:51,200 --> 00:49:53,680 Speaker 4: Aaron Donald, Kobe Turner, but but could be really impressive 1172 00:49:53,680 --> 00:49:55,040 Speaker 4: in different ways. And he'll be one of those guys 1173 00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:55,399 Speaker 4: for sure. 1174 00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:58,800 Speaker 1: Just to understand how impressive this is, Tony did not 1175 00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:01,040 Speaker 1: give Eric any of these names before we started this. 1176 00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:03,200 Speaker 1: He's just picking out like random guys from. 1177 00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:06,120 Speaker 4: Schools and no order too. We're going DB's, We're going 1178 00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:06,600 Speaker 4: I love it. 1179 00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:10,920 Speaker 1: I love it to Eric, year, it's very impressive. I 1180 00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:12,960 Speaker 1: want to go to running back. You know, we did 1181 00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:16,600 Speaker 1: not get a running back until late second round last year. Eric, 1182 00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:19,160 Speaker 1: And are we gonna have a little bit of a 1183 00:50:19,200 --> 00:50:21,440 Speaker 1: better class this year where you know, first round maybe not, 1184 00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:23,960 Speaker 1: that's fine, but are we gonna see some more really 1185 00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:27,880 Speaker 1: explosive years? You mentioned the transfer to Ohio State boys. 1186 00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:29,640 Speaker 1: He's got a really good running back that I like. 1187 00:50:30,120 --> 00:50:32,640 Speaker 1: So are we gonna see that class pop a little 1188 00:50:32,680 --> 00:50:33,759 Speaker 1: bit more at that position this year? 1189 00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:35,840 Speaker 4: You think we could? We could? I think there's some 1190 00:50:35,920 --> 00:50:37,800 Speaker 4: really top end guys that are talented. But to Ohio 1191 00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:41,040 Speaker 4: State running backs Henderson, who's well known by scouts game 1192 00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:42,759 Speaker 4: maybe not a first round and had all have a guy, 1193 00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:45,880 Speaker 4: but a guy NFL teams know very well. Judgin super impressive, 1194 00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:49,000 Speaker 4: Ali Gordon dog Walker a winner year ago. He's super talented. 1195 00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:52,120 Speaker 4: Dave Martinez at Miami I mentioned he was pretty confident 1196 00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:53,600 Speaker 4: he was the top guy in the portal at running 1197 00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:55,600 Speaker 4: back who ended up Miami's well and Hill benef from 1198 00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:58,000 Speaker 4: that offense. So Amaro Hampton up for the dog Walker 1199 00:50:58,000 --> 00:50:59,799 Speaker 4: as ward as well this year too, So we asked 1200 00:50:59,840 --> 00:51:01,640 Speaker 4: him more top end juniors, and we'll see if they 1201 00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:03,719 Speaker 4: all come out for the draft and declare. I think 1202 00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:05,200 Speaker 4: this depth is about the same as a year ago. 1203 00:51:05,320 --> 00:51:07,640 Speaker 4: And I think one of the think about running back 1204 00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:09,960 Speaker 4: evaluations these days, and I tell people that it's it's, 1205 00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:13,160 Speaker 4: in my opinion, one of the easier, not that scouting's 1206 00:51:13,160 --> 00:51:14,960 Speaker 4: ever easy, one of the easier ones to evaluate in 1207 00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:17,719 Speaker 4: terms of their draft ability, because you can't just be 1208 00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:20,080 Speaker 4: a good running back in the NFL anymore right. To 1209 00:51:20,160 --> 00:51:23,920 Speaker 4: be at prospect, you've got to have either elite production, athleticism. 1210 00:51:24,040 --> 00:51:26,960 Speaker 4: But if you have all five tools of production, size, athleticism, 1211 00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:30,640 Speaker 4: pass blocking, and pass catching, you're Bjon Robinson. But beyond that, 1212 00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:34,879 Speaker 4: the guys like Tyrone Tracy Right, Hey, he's tough, he's 1213 00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:37,160 Speaker 4: well built, and he's an elite pass catcher. Those three 1214 00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:39,120 Speaker 4: traits are more than enough to be a good NFL 1215 00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:41,279 Speaker 4: running back now versus guys that may be like a 1216 00:51:41,920 --> 00:51:43,440 Speaker 4: I don't name want to name names, but guys that 1217 00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:45,800 Speaker 4: have really good college careers that don't add things on 1218 00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:48,520 Speaker 4: third down or aren't really good athletes. So I think 1219 00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:50,719 Speaker 4: we're starting to see a better, I think perspective on 1220 00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:52,840 Speaker 4: scouting these running backs and for US Hey, there's a 1221 00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:54,480 Speaker 4: lot of really good pass catchers in this draft class. 1222 00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:56,760 Speaker 4: Hey there's a couple of good, really special pass blockers 1223 00:51:56,800 --> 00:51:58,960 Speaker 4: in this draft class. And hey, there's some really freak athletes. 1224 00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:01,359 Speaker 4: So our point of there's plenty of running back talent. 1225 00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:03,480 Speaker 4: I just think people need to kind of adjust how 1226 00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:05,279 Speaker 4: they value with the running back position, because if you 1227 00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:07,080 Speaker 4: look at it from a what role can they play 1228 00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:08,960 Speaker 4: in a room, there's a lot of talent in terms of, hey, 1229 00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:11,400 Speaker 4: how many guys can have fIF hundred yards year in 1230 00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:12,080 Speaker 4: college football? 1231 00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:15,359 Speaker 2: Not too many go to the tight end position. I mean, 1232 00:52:15,640 --> 00:52:17,560 Speaker 2: I've got a couple of good, couple of juniors who 1233 00:52:17,560 --> 00:52:20,680 Speaker 2: are really good, could move up draft boards. You know, 1234 00:52:20,920 --> 00:52:23,279 Speaker 2: people love those four guys who run the four to 1235 00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:25,000 Speaker 2: four of the four or fives get down the field. 1236 00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:27,920 Speaker 2: I like the guys that are three down players at 1237 00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:30,319 Speaker 2: that position, and we've got to it looks like we've 1238 00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:32,279 Speaker 2: got a bunch of them, especially some guys who can 1239 00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:33,440 Speaker 2: return it from injury. 1240 00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:36,080 Speaker 4: Absolutely, I mean, I think it's one of the strong 1241 00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:37,120 Speaker 4: positions in the draft class. 1242 00:52:37,120 --> 00:52:37,200 Speaker 2: Thing. 1243 00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:39,480 Speaker 4: Last year's tight end group kind of fell off a 1244 00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:41,360 Speaker 4: little bit towards the back end, but I think NFL 1245 00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:44,560 Speaker 4: teams are pretty bullish. Two guys from Georgia Oscar Delp 1246 00:52:44,719 --> 00:52:48,319 Speaker 4: and Ben You're Ossik coming home from Stanford too. We'll 1247 00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:49,960 Speaker 4: see how those two guys kind of make up for 1248 00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:52,960 Speaker 4: brock Bauers being gone. I think South Carolina has two 1249 00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:55,800 Speaker 4: interesting guys want to transfer two years ago, Josh Simon, 1250 00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:58,120 Speaker 4: the other one Brady Hunt from Max School. How those 1251 00:52:58,160 --> 00:52:59,719 Speaker 4: two tight ends play together as well too. I think 1252 00:52:59,760 --> 00:53:02,520 Speaker 4: to your point, even more and more collegeams are seeing, hey, 1253 00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:04,680 Speaker 4: if we get two tight ends who can kind of 1254 00:53:04,719 --> 00:53:06,799 Speaker 4: block and be really good athletes a receiver, we could 1255 00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:09,000 Speaker 4: be really dynamic and versatile offense. And so you've got 1256 00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:12,800 Speaker 4: your freak athletes. Amari Nyblack, Colson Lovel obviously probably the 1257 00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:15,360 Speaker 4: presumptive top tight end this draft class. But depth is 1258 00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:17,400 Speaker 4: really their year for NFL teams needing tight ends. I 1259 00:53:17,480 --> 00:53:20,239 Speaker 4: think to your point, more and more teams are realizing, hey, 1260 00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:23,360 Speaker 4: getting eleven personnel guys who can block and be on 1261 00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:26,879 Speaker 4: the field consistently. Like in the NFL. You have those guys, 1262 00:53:26,960 --> 00:53:29,040 Speaker 4: you can run more up tempo stuff and not shrink 1263 00:53:29,040 --> 00:53:31,000 Speaker 4: your playbook. I think more and more teams are leveraging 1264 00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:35,120 Speaker 4: those quality, blocking, receiving tight ends to play there in 1265 00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:36,000 Speaker 4: their offense in college. 1266 00:53:36,040 --> 00:53:38,239 Speaker 1: Not too all right, Eric, I'm gonna throw a name 1267 00:53:38,239 --> 00:53:40,120 Speaker 1: at you here. Going back to the running back real quick. 1268 00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:43,480 Speaker 1: Why doesn't Travis at M's brother, Trevor, who transferred to 1269 00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:45,800 Speaker 1: Georgia this year, Why didn't he get more love? I 1270 00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:48,120 Speaker 1: know he was a part time guy in Florida last year. 1271 00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:49,880 Speaker 1: He shared time with a bigger back. I don't remember 1272 00:53:49,920 --> 00:53:52,000 Speaker 1: his name of the top of my head, but whenever 1273 00:53:52,080 --> 00:53:54,239 Speaker 1: he got the ball, that dude was explosive and he 1274 00:53:54,320 --> 00:53:55,719 Speaker 1: was a big play way to happen. I think at 1275 00:53:55,760 --> 00:53:58,720 Speaker 1: Georgia he could be dynamite this year, and he'll. 1276 00:53:58,520 --> 00:54:00,200 Speaker 4: Be the guy this year at Georgia too, will be 1277 00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:01,680 Speaker 4: the most talented guy in that room, I think. But 1278 00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:03,600 Speaker 4: they've always got a freshman. I mean I've heard about 1279 00:54:03,680 --> 00:54:05,879 Speaker 4: yet that's up being the next you know, Tory Gurley 1280 00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:08,200 Speaker 4: or whoever to But no, he's super talented. I'm sometimes 1281 00:54:08,440 --> 00:54:10,480 Speaker 4: you know, people always ask me who's underrated guy you like? 1282 00:54:10,520 --> 00:54:12,400 Speaker 4: And I'm bad at that because we we lock in 1283 00:54:12,440 --> 00:54:14,680 Speaker 4: on our scouting process and that's about it. And I'll 1284 00:54:14,760 --> 00:54:16,920 Speaker 4: tee you Trevor ey T is not a nobo on 1285 00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:19,040 Speaker 4: our board either. He's on our board among the guys 1286 00:54:19,040 --> 00:54:21,279 Speaker 4: I mentioned it running back for short too. But at 1287 00:54:21,320 --> 00:54:23,600 Speaker 4: the Georgia offense, they've got a loaded offensive line. I 1288 00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:25,480 Speaker 4: think they have three maybe four guys returning on the 1289 00:54:25,520 --> 00:54:27,680 Speaker 4: starting offensive line, and they have depth behind them as 1290 00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:30,640 Speaker 4: well to an experienced quarterback like Carson Beck, plenty of 1291 00:54:30,719 --> 00:54:33,680 Speaker 4: receivers to threaten the safeties downfield. I think Trevick really 1292 00:54:33,719 --> 00:54:34,719 Speaker 4: eating that offenses here. 1293 00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:37,440 Speaker 2: John, You'll be happy, you know, Trevor Aten is the 1294 00:54:37,520 --> 00:54:38,960 Speaker 2: number one back on my board right now. 1295 00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:41,239 Speaker 1: I like that, Tony, I like it. 1296 00:54:41,920 --> 00:54:45,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna go to the linebacker position, not the 1297 00:54:45,360 --> 00:54:48,440 Speaker 2: pass rushers, the off the ball guys, and you know, 1298 00:54:49,080 --> 00:54:51,600 Speaker 2: too many times they want to broad rush guys. Is 1299 00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:58,040 Speaker 2: edge rushers. You know, Derek Carter, Danny Stutsman, Jamin Duman, Johnson, 1300 00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:02,600 Speaker 2: Sam Mondon of Georgia, a lot of good, you know, 1301 00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:06,640 Speaker 2: three down linebackers that people aren't going to take notice 1302 00:55:06,719 --> 00:55:10,280 Speaker 2: of because they're not always in the opponent's backfield disrupting 1303 00:55:10,360 --> 00:55:10,759 Speaker 2: the action. 1304 00:55:11,640 --> 00:55:14,359 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I think it's been a fairly weak draft 1305 00:55:14,440 --> 00:55:16,360 Speaker 4: last couple of years at those spots, in part because 1306 00:55:16,400 --> 00:55:18,600 Speaker 4: teams feel like baptition. Like running back, you can find 1307 00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:21,960 Speaker 4: guys after the draft. And to that argument's point, Jack 1308 00:55:22,040 --> 00:55:24,040 Speaker 4: Sanborne played the Trinabole two years ago, Ivan Pace a 1309 00:55:24,080 --> 00:55:26,719 Speaker 4: year ago. Undrafted guys at start, you can find those 1310 00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:29,040 Speaker 4: linebackers maybe in the undrafted area too. But I think 1311 00:55:29,040 --> 00:55:31,399 Speaker 4: this draft classes is probably better than the last couple 1312 00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:33,120 Speaker 4: of years, especially if the juniors come out as will two. 1313 00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:36,280 Speaker 4: I think Danny Barrett Carter both awesome player, Smile London 1314 00:55:36,840 --> 00:55:38,839 Speaker 4: do mis Johnson great players. Well to one player, I'll 1315 00:55:38,880 --> 00:55:41,040 Speaker 4: call out who I think and I'm gonna do my 1316 00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:43,880 Speaker 4: best make sure he's not underappreciated because he had I 1317 00:55:43,960 --> 00:55:47,479 Speaker 4: think fourteen thousand tackles last year. Nick Martin, Oklahoma State, 1318 00:55:48,160 --> 00:55:50,160 Speaker 4: I mean, just so productive and we saw a couple 1319 00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:52,319 Speaker 4: of years ago with the linebacker I'm forgetting his name. 1320 00:55:52,320 --> 00:55:55,160 Speaker 4: I apologize a couple of years ago who was super 1321 00:55:55,200 --> 00:55:56,880 Speaker 4: talented and went late in the drafts or after the 1322 00:55:56,960 --> 00:55:59,600 Speaker 4: draft and ended up starting the NFL. Nick Bartin in 1323 00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:03,040 Speaker 4: the same way, he's incredibly instinctive, finishes up field, plays 1324 00:56:03,080 --> 00:56:05,680 Speaker 4: outside the tackle box in the backfield as well too. 1325 00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:08,200 Speaker 4: He doesn't have any fake tackles on his resume. He's 1326 00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:10,440 Speaker 4: he's the guy leading the charge. In that defense, and 1327 00:56:10,520 --> 00:56:12,800 Speaker 4: he's gotten so much better during the last year, and 1328 00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:14,800 Speaker 4: then what I've talked to scouts so far in camp, 1329 00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:17,440 Speaker 4: better in coverage as well too. And with that kind 1330 00:56:17,440 --> 00:56:19,480 Speaker 4: of versatility to be a coverage guy and cover two, 1331 00:56:19,520 --> 00:56:21,640 Speaker 4: cover three as well as as powerful as he is, 1332 00:56:21,960 --> 00:56:23,960 Speaker 4: he's not going to be. He's longer sized about six 1333 00:56:24,040 --> 00:56:26,440 Speaker 4: feet and two hundred and thirty pounds ish, but may 1334 00:56:26,520 --> 00:56:28,399 Speaker 4: not be the six two six three guys an NFL 1335 00:56:28,440 --> 00:56:30,120 Speaker 4: team's dream up. But we got to get past the 1336 00:56:30,640 --> 00:56:34,600 Speaker 4: need for size and today's NFL explosiveness, reaction twitch is 1337 00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:36,600 Speaker 4: what teams need from their mike linebacker. Nick Martin's a 1338 00:56:36,640 --> 00:56:37,320 Speaker 4: great candidate for that. 1339 00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:39,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, in the Oklahoma state. When you think of him, 1340 00:56:39,560 --> 00:56:41,279 Speaker 2: you think of the downfield passing game, you think of 1341 00:56:41,320 --> 00:56:44,840 Speaker 2: an explosive offense. They not only have martinigat Colin Oliver, 1342 00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:49,440 Speaker 2: who's another very athletic three down type linebacker. So it 1343 00:56:49,440 --> 00:56:51,319 Speaker 2: should be a fun defense to watch us from an 1344 00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:53,160 Speaker 2: NFL prospect point of view, No. 1345 00:56:53,280 --> 00:56:56,640 Speaker 1: Doubt, offensive line one position we'ven hit yet, eric last 1346 00:56:56,719 --> 00:56:58,680 Speaker 1: position out of me. And then I have a couple 1347 00:56:58,680 --> 00:57:02,680 Speaker 1: of general college football questions before we wrap last year. 1348 00:57:02,719 --> 00:57:05,800 Speaker 1: A historically good offensive line class, a bunch of offensive 1349 00:57:05,800 --> 00:57:09,040 Speaker 1: tackles in the first round. We might have three offensive tackles. 1350 00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:11,279 Speaker 1: Look at Texas, look at LSU go near the top 1351 00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:13,279 Speaker 1: of the draft. Texas in the top of the draft 1352 00:57:13,320 --> 00:57:15,520 Speaker 1: this year. But I imagine this is probably not going 1353 00:57:15,600 --> 00:57:16,920 Speaker 1: to be nearly as deep of a class. 1354 00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:17,920 Speaker 2: Correct, Yeah, it. 1355 00:57:17,920 --> 00:57:19,640 Speaker 4: Won't be as deep. But I think the question teams 1356 00:57:19,640 --> 00:57:21,040 Speaker 4: are gonna want to see is who rides it up 1357 00:57:21,120 --> 00:57:23,920 Speaker 4: to be that starter level player. There's a lot of 1358 00:57:23,960 --> 00:57:25,920 Speaker 4: guys in this class that we're excited about seeing, I 1359 00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:27,920 Speaker 4: think that next step, but they can develop further. They 1360 00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:30,320 Speaker 4: got the athletic traits, they've got maybe one year of 1361 00:57:30,360 --> 00:57:33,080 Speaker 4: starting experience, but not as many high floor guys right 1362 00:57:33,160 --> 00:57:35,680 Speaker 4: now as guys that, especially at tackle, that you can say, hey, 1363 00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:37,560 Speaker 4: this guy can start in the NFL next year. A 1364 00:57:37,640 --> 00:57:39,480 Speaker 4: couple of juniorsill be watching a couple of seniors see 1365 00:57:39,480 --> 00:57:41,160 Speaker 4: they can get that next step as well too. But 1366 00:57:41,480 --> 00:57:42,800 Speaker 4: I think the only guy I think about that I 1367 00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:45,440 Speaker 4: think maybe should be getting closer to that top tier 1368 00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:49,200 Speaker 4: of offensive linemen is a guy West Virginia, Wyatt Millium Milliam. 1369 00:57:49,240 --> 00:57:53,080 Speaker 4: He is a experienced, really impressive offensive tackle, grades out 1370 00:57:53,120 --> 00:57:55,640 Speaker 4: super well in our analytic process as well as the 1371 00:57:55,720 --> 00:57:57,640 Speaker 4: eye test watching and really impressed as well too. And 1372 00:57:57,720 --> 00:57:59,720 Speaker 4: he kind of flirted with coming out a year ago. 1373 00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:01,600 Speaker 4: He's got that type of NFL interests are ready to 1374 00:58:02,080 --> 00:58:04,280 Speaker 4: don't be surprised and kind of a lackluster or offensive 1375 00:58:04,280 --> 00:58:06,520 Speaker 4: tackle class. If he rises up to be that fourth 1376 00:58:06,600 --> 00:58:08,520 Speaker 4: or fifth offensive tackle, goes in the first rount as 1377 00:58:08,560 --> 00:58:10,120 Speaker 4: well too. But I think after some of the guys 1378 00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:12,080 Speaker 4: you mentioned, maybe one or two more and I think million, 1379 00:58:12,200 --> 00:58:13,960 Speaker 4: it's going to be a little bit of a wait 1380 00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:15,520 Speaker 4: and see who can really emerge and be at a 1381 00:58:15,560 --> 00:58:17,000 Speaker 4: top hundred pick at offensive tackle. 1382 00:58:17,560 --> 00:58:20,240 Speaker 2: Now stick at offensive tackle. I mentioned Garmin Randolph of 1383 00:58:20,280 --> 00:58:22,640 Speaker 2: Biler before as a guy who looks like Tarzan, plays 1384 00:58:22,720 --> 00:58:26,520 Speaker 2: like Jane at times. Anthony Belton, North Carolina State. I mean, 1385 00:58:26,600 --> 00:58:30,840 Speaker 2: this guy's got the measurables, he's athletic, he's massive. If 1386 00:58:30,920 --> 00:58:33,880 Speaker 2: he puts it together, this is another offensive tackle I 1387 00:58:33,960 --> 00:58:35,840 Speaker 2: believe could make a big move up draft boards. 1388 00:58:36,080 --> 00:58:38,400 Speaker 4: No doubt Belton is extremely talented. I think the important 1389 00:58:38,400 --> 00:58:39,680 Speaker 4: thing for Belton it goes back to what I said 1390 00:58:39,680 --> 00:58:42,960 Speaker 4: earlier about the preventter position, where at offensive tackle, if 1391 00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:45,360 Speaker 4: you play forty five snaps and you have forty two 1392 00:58:45,360 --> 00:58:47,680 Speaker 4: awesome ones and three bad ones, and those three bad 1393 00:58:47,720 --> 00:58:49,680 Speaker 4: ones are three sacks you had a bad game. I 1394 00:58:49,720 --> 00:58:52,360 Speaker 4: think for Belton forty two snaps in the season, you 1395 00:58:52,440 --> 00:58:55,560 Speaker 4: think he is Walter Jones, right, He's that impressive of 1396 00:58:55,560 --> 00:58:57,400 Speaker 4: an athlete playing space. I think there's some laps in 1397 00:58:57,440 --> 00:58:59,480 Speaker 4: the judgment. I think there's some scheme things that have 1398 00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:01,520 Speaker 4: been worked out this option as well too. But Belton, 1399 00:59:01,560 --> 00:59:03,320 Speaker 4: I think if you put a highlight on you'll say 1400 00:59:03,320 --> 00:59:04,880 Speaker 4: he's the first overall pick in the draft. I don't 1401 00:59:04,880 --> 00:59:06,880 Speaker 4: care who's playing quarterback. I think for Belton, like you 1402 00:59:07,080 --> 00:59:09,320 Speaker 4: to your point, Tony putting all together this year. He's 1403 00:59:09,360 --> 00:59:11,560 Speaker 4: got that talent. He's a high football like you, smart 1404 00:59:11,600 --> 00:59:13,360 Speaker 4: kid as well too. I think there's a good chance 1405 00:59:13,400 --> 00:59:14,880 Speaker 4: he puts it all together this year and ends up 1406 00:59:14,880 --> 00:59:16,600 Speaker 4: being that guy that I think rise up draft boards 1407 00:59:16,600 --> 00:59:19,040 Speaker 4: pretty quickly. But again, NFL teams know who he is 1408 00:59:19,040 --> 00:59:21,200 Speaker 4: and they know the talent doesn't prove that to anybody 1409 00:59:21,200 --> 00:59:22,600 Speaker 4: at all. He's got to prove he can be consistent 1410 00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:23,240 Speaker 4: all season long. 1411 00:59:24,400 --> 00:59:26,920 Speaker 1: Eric, just generally speaking, this to me is a big 1412 00:59:27,080 --> 00:59:30,200 Speaker 1: sea change year in college football, right, you have Washington 1413 00:59:30,280 --> 00:59:32,320 Speaker 1: who went to the national title game. New head coach 1414 00:59:32,760 --> 00:59:36,200 Speaker 1: Nick Saban no longer at Alabama. They bring Washington over 1415 00:59:36,400 --> 00:59:39,760 Speaker 1: new head coach Jim Harbor, not a Michigan new head coach. 1416 00:59:40,480 --> 00:59:43,560 Speaker 1: There's a lot of changes going on in college football here. 1417 00:59:43,920 --> 00:59:47,440 Speaker 1: How do you think those big changes, that those impactful 1418 00:59:47,520 --> 00:59:50,120 Speaker 1: programs might impact what we see from the class this 1419 00:59:50,240 --> 00:59:52,120 Speaker 1: year and just generally in college football. 1420 00:59:52,680 --> 00:59:54,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, you got Calum the ACC. I mean, I thinks 1421 00:59:54,880 --> 00:59:58,240 Speaker 4: are out of football. Stanford too, it's I can't figure 1422 00:59:58,280 --> 01:00:00,400 Speaker 4: things out at all, So no, I I think it's 1423 01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:03,480 Speaker 4: it feels between the fact that the transfer portal has 1424 01:00:03,560 --> 01:00:06,680 Speaker 4: really come into focus and teams are really good. Teams 1425 01:00:06,720 --> 01:00:09,320 Speaker 4: were able to become great much easier than in the past. Right, 1426 01:00:09,320 --> 01:00:10,680 Speaker 4: it was really hard for teams to get to that 1427 01:00:11,000 --> 01:00:12,840 Speaker 4: George Allen at LSU level. I think now with the 1428 01:00:12,840 --> 01:00:15,560 Speaker 4: transfer portal, Ole Miss has gotten to that point pretty 1429 01:00:15,640 --> 01:00:18,120 Speaker 4: quickly too, and the turnover it's in major programs again. 1430 01:00:18,160 --> 01:00:20,320 Speaker 4: I think Alabama mentioned Jell and Morow. They've got a 1431 01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:21,760 Speaker 4: lot of talent. They could be the best team in 1432 01:00:21,800 --> 01:00:24,080 Speaker 4: the country this year. But new head coach. Again, you 1433 01:00:24,120 --> 01:00:25,920 Speaker 4: can't in college football like you can in the NFL, 1434 01:00:26,280 --> 01:00:27,840 Speaker 4: you can't like stumble out of the gates at all 1435 01:00:27,840 --> 01:00:30,040 Speaker 4: and still be a national title contender. So I think 1436 01:00:30,120 --> 01:00:33,560 Speaker 4: between the changes that you mentioned at Michigan, Washington and 1437 01:00:34,520 --> 01:00:37,320 Speaker 4: in Alabama as well as now the college fall playoff 1438 01:00:37,360 --> 01:00:39,120 Speaker 4: coming into effect, where now there's more teams who can 1439 01:00:39,160 --> 01:00:41,120 Speaker 4: get there, the teams like you know, I listened to 1440 01:00:41,160 --> 01:00:43,040 Speaker 4: somebody the other day who said that Wisconsin would have 1441 01:00:43,040 --> 01:00:45,640 Speaker 4: been in the playoffs seven the last twelve years had 1442 01:00:45,640 --> 01:00:47,920 Speaker 4: they had this playoff structure they do now, right, So 1443 01:00:48,040 --> 01:00:50,320 Speaker 4: teams like that that we kind of forget about because 1444 01:00:50,640 --> 01:00:52,480 Speaker 4: they weren't one of the Final four or Final two, 1445 01:00:52,600 --> 01:00:54,840 Speaker 4: but they had really good seasons they may come into 1446 01:00:54,880 --> 01:00:57,000 Speaker 4: focus too. So I think it's been really fun mixed 1447 01:00:57,000 --> 01:00:59,320 Speaker 4: this year, don't I don't know how I feel about 1448 01:00:59,320 --> 01:01:01,160 Speaker 4: the twelve team plays off quite yet. Maybe I'm more 1449 01:01:01,160 --> 01:01:03,120 Speaker 4: of a traditionalist when it comes to college football that way, 1450 01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:05,680 Speaker 4: but I know when it's here, I'll be really excited 1451 01:01:05,680 --> 01:01:07,480 Speaker 4: to see who the seven to twelve matchup is and 1452 01:01:08,040 --> 01:01:09,480 Speaker 4: can pen State get over the hump and get to 1453 01:01:09,520 --> 01:01:10,960 Speaker 4: that spot. I'm very excited for it as well too, 1454 01:01:11,000 --> 01:01:13,400 Speaker 4: So it feels like it's going to be because the 1455 01:01:13,440 --> 01:01:15,200 Speaker 4: playoff as well as the portal as well as the 1456 01:01:15,240 --> 01:01:17,760 Speaker 4: coaching changes, probably the most wide open college teaes. And 1457 01:01:17,800 --> 01:01:19,320 Speaker 4: I can remember I saw the top ten list come 1458 01:01:19,360 --> 01:01:22,160 Speaker 4: out too when I betty disagree with seven or eight 1459 01:01:22,200 --> 01:01:24,000 Speaker 4: of them being that top ten because I think that 1460 01:01:24,080 --> 01:01:25,640 Speaker 4: I have different things to other people as well too. 1461 01:01:25,720 --> 01:01:27,680 Speaker 4: So it's it's one of the deeper and more loaded 1462 01:01:27,680 --> 01:01:30,120 Speaker 4: opportunities for teams in across the country to make an 1463 01:01:30,160 --> 01:01:30,800 Speaker 4: impact this year. 1464 01:01:31,120 --> 01:01:32,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna ask you, I'm gonna stick on the playoff. 1465 01:01:32,960 --> 01:01:35,200 Speaker 2: I mean, I am a true college football traditionalist. I 1466 01:01:35,280 --> 01:01:37,880 Speaker 2: don't like the playoffs at all because you know what 1467 01:01:38,040 --> 01:01:39,920 Speaker 2: it could do is it could exclude the games like 1468 01:01:40,000 --> 01:01:42,840 Speaker 2: the Michigan Ohio State game where Ohio State is desperate 1469 01:01:42,880 --> 01:01:45,320 Speaker 2: for a win, now if they know they're going to 1470 01:01:45,320 --> 01:01:47,280 Speaker 2: be in the playoffs and not as desperate for a win. 1471 01:01:47,600 --> 01:01:50,560 Speaker 2: But my question is players. You know, we see more 1472 01:01:50,560 --> 01:01:53,160 Speaker 2: and more players opting out of bowl games. It used 1473 01:01:53,200 --> 01:01:55,680 Speaker 2: to be just the first well guys who are going 1474 01:01:55,760 --> 01:01:57,840 Speaker 2: to go first three rounds, and then last year, you know, 1475 01:01:57,880 --> 01:02:01,600 Speaker 2: the last couple of years we've seen seven seventh round prospects, 1476 01:02:02,080 --> 01:02:04,880 Speaker 2: UDFA prospects opt out of ball games to start to 1477 01:02:04,960 --> 01:02:08,240 Speaker 2: prepare for the draft. Let's I mean, do you think 1478 01:02:08,400 --> 01:02:11,520 Speaker 2: there's the possibility that, you know, the eighth ranked team 1479 01:02:11,760 --> 01:02:14,200 Speaker 2: or the twelfth ranked team and the playoffs, A guy 1480 01:02:14,280 --> 01:02:17,120 Speaker 2: could say, listen, I'm out. I'm just gonna start get 1481 01:02:17,240 --> 01:02:20,480 Speaker 2: ready for my next level career, start to prepare for 1482 01:02:20,560 --> 01:02:22,440 Speaker 2: the combine. Do you think that is a possibility. 1483 01:02:23,120 --> 01:02:26,680 Speaker 4: No, I don't. I think that's one of the benefits 1484 01:02:26,720 --> 01:02:29,320 Speaker 4: of this. First off, I think players having the choice 1485 01:02:29,320 --> 01:02:30,880 Speaker 4: and it out being tabooed to op out of bowl 1486 01:02:30,920 --> 01:02:33,480 Speaker 4: games is great. Again, I'm a player advocate through and through, 1487 01:02:33,640 --> 01:02:35,160 Speaker 4: and hey, you know what if I don't have to 1488 01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:37,040 Speaker 4: play this game, we're not playing for anything other than 1489 01:02:37,480 --> 01:02:40,520 Speaker 4: this random bowl namesake and for my head coach to 1490 01:02:40,560 --> 01:02:43,320 Speaker 4: feel better. I get it again. I think there's benefits 1491 01:02:43,360 --> 01:02:44,720 Speaker 4: of guys playing in bowl games that are not for 1492 01:02:44,760 --> 01:02:46,560 Speaker 4: the national championship. I think there are some players that 1493 01:02:46,600 --> 01:02:48,560 Speaker 4: I've asked my opinion and I've said, yes, play, but 1494 01:02:48,880 --> 01:02:51,680 Speaker 4: love the guys have the choice. But that's what's I mean. 1495 01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:53,600 Speaker 4: These players know, right, every year there's that place to 1496 01:02:53,600 --> 01:02:55,760 Speaker 4: State or Michigan. Two decades ago kind of started this 1497 01:02:55,840 --> 01:02:58,240 Speaker 4: idea that like anybody can be anyone in college football now. 1498 01:02:58,280 --> 01:03:00,600 Speaker 4: And if I'm in the playoff or if I'm in, 1499 01:03:01,080 --> 01:03:04,280 Speaker 4: you know, the conference championship game for the AAC, and 1500 01:03:04,400 --> 01:03:05,720 Speaker 4: I know that if I win this game, we had 1501 01:03:05,760 --> 01:03:07,840 Speaker 4: a good season, I might be able to play, you know, 1502 01:03:07,920 --> 01:03:10,000 Speaker 4: three wins away from the national championship game. Guys are 1503 01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:12,160 Speaker 4: definitely gonna play. So that doesn't worry me at all. 1504 01:03:12,200 --> 01:03:15,480 Speaker 4: I think that the tradition or the lack of tradition 1505 01:03:15,560 --> 01:03:17,479 Speaker 4: and people staying in bowl games, I think is just fine. 1506 01:03:17,560 --> 01:03:19,320 Speaker 4: I do think by the way, the rivalry games, like 1507 01:03:19,400 --> 01:03:21,520 Speaker 4: you said, I'm sure Ryan Day will take that game 1508 01:03:21,680 --> 01:03:23,920 Speaker 4: very seriously in Michigan. Ohio State will care about that 1509 01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:25,680 Speaker 4: quite a bit after losing the last three years. But 1510 01:03:26,120 --> 01:03:28,760 Speaker 4: I think there'll be a lot of push towards rivalry 1511 01:03:28,880 --> 01:03:31,320 Speaker 4: and the playoff more and more so. What happens to 1512 01:03:31,320 --> 01:03:33,240 Speaker 4: the other bowl games, I'm not sure. I saw the 1513 01:03:33,320 --> 01:03:35,880 Speaker 4: report about how the G five tools might make like 1514 01:03:35,880 --> 01:03:38,080 Speaker 4: an n I T tournament for their teams. I love 1515 01:03:38,160 --> 01:03:41,080 Speaker 4: that idea. I think we need to get more creative 1516 01:03:41,120 --> 01:03:44,040 Speaker 4: in college football versus just we've always had these bowls. 1517 01:03:44,160 --> 01:03:46,680 Speaker 4: NA should matter, and darn these kids are not playing 1518 01:03:46,720 --> 01:03:48,160 Speaker 4: in them. I think we got a good new incentives 1519 01:03:48,160 --> 01:03:49,920 Speaker 4: for these players to care, and I think players will care. 1520 01:03:50,040 --> 01:03:52,560 Speaker 4: But no doubt the playoff will be have full prescipasion 1521 01:03:52,600 --> 01:03:54,040 Speaker 4: this year for guys that can play in the playoff 1522 01:03:54,040 --> 01:03:56,040 Speaker 4: because you're only one or two wins away. I'm playing 1523 01:03:56,040 --> 01:03:57,040 Speaker 4: for the national championship. 1524 01:03:57,400 --> 01:03:59,440 Speaker 1: Hey, look, when people don't realize this, the FSYES has 1525 01:03:59,440 --> 01:04:01,760 Speaker 1: had a playoff system for years. They've been they've been 1526 01:04:01,800 --> 01:04:04,080 Speaker 1: one of the playoffs on that level forever, and it works. 1527 01:04:04,160 --> 01:04:06,280 Speaker 1: So I'm with the end for me, Eric, I just 1528 01:04:06,320 --> 01:04:09,000 Speaker 1: give you more scouting opportunities. I mean, how much did 1529 01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:11,240 Speaker 1: we learn about I'll just go two years ago with CJ. 1530 01:04:11,360 --> 01:04:13,440 Speaker 1: Shapp playing the national title game. We saw him do 1531 01:04:13,480 --> 01:04:15,520 Speaker 1: stuff in that game against the best competition that we 1532 01:04:15,600 --> 01:04:19,880 Speaker 1: had not really seen him do previously, and it could 1533 01:04:19,920 --> 01:04:21,720 Speaker 1: have bumped him out of Bryce Young ended up not 1534 01:04:21,840 --> 01:04:24,320 Speaker 1: being the case. But you learn a lot to see 1535 01:04:24,560 --> 01:04:27,160 Speaker 1: the best goal against the best That allows us to 1536 01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:28,440 Speaker 1: scout these guys a little bit more. 1537 01:04:28,840 --> 01:04:31,640 Speaker 4: And one thing to kind of counterpoint your point Tony 1538 01:04:31,640 --> 01:04:34,720 Speaker 4: earlier is that for a long time, if you want 1539 01:04:34,800 --> 01:04:36,880 Speaker 4: to make the playoff of the National Championship, or a 1540 01:04:36,920 --> 01:04:39,720 Speaker 4: big Bowl game. In the SEC, you had to beat 1541 01:04:39,880 --> 01:04:41,840 Speaker 4: one of or both Georgia and Alabama and for a 1542 01:04:41,840 --> 01:04:43,760 Speaker 4: lot of or LSU, and those teams were sometimes the 1543 01:04:43,760 --> 01:04:46,360 Speaker 4: best teams in the country. Now let's say I'm Wisconsin 1544 01:04:46,560 --> 01:04:48,160 Speaker 4: and I couldn't be Mission Ohio State if they were 1545 01:04:48,160 --> 01:04:50,360 Speaker 4: the two best teams in the country. Well, now I'm Wisconsin. 1546 01:04:50,400 --> 01:04:54,080 Speaker 4: I can go beat you know, Georgia or Missouri to 1547 01:04:54,200 --> 01:04:56,360 Speaker 4: play in the National Championship and get my path there 1548 01:04:56,440 --> 01:04:57,720 Speaker 4: a different way as well too. So I think it's 1549 01:04:57,720 --> 01:04:59,479 Speaker 4: opens the door for more and more teams who maybe 1550 01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:02,360 Speaker 4: because the schedule and the year situation, just couldn't get 1551 01:05:02,360 --> 01:05:03,960 Speaker 4: past that one hump, but maybe a different way to 1552 01:05:04,000 --> 01:05:06,240 Speaker 4: get there. It could be really opportunity for some creative 1553 01:05:06,280 --> 01:05:08,320 Speaker 4: and really new I'm not saying this ter will be 1554 01:05:08,400 --> 01:05:11,160 Speaker 4: a off the wall national Championship team, but I think 1555 01:05:11,200 --> 01:05:13,520 Speaker 4: in the next and within the next three years, we'll 1556 01:05:13,560 --> 01:05:15,600 Speaker 4: have a eight seed or a nine seed win the 1557 01:05:15,680 --> 01:05:18,000 Speaker 4: National Championship. It's not crazy that will happen. I think 1558 01:05:18,040 --> 01:05:20,600 Speaker 4: it'll be a pretty jarring moment when it happens. But 1559 01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:23,560 Speaker 4: I'm excited for I'm excited for Memphis win the National 1560 01:05:23,680 --> 01:05:25,400 Speaker 4: championship in three years because they had a good run 1561 01:05:25,440 --> 01:05:26,840 Speaker 4: of the a C and they just got hot and 1562 01:05:26,840 --> 01:05:28,720 Speaker 4: they had the right team. Who knows, And that's more 1563 01:05:28,840 --> 01:05:30,280 Speaker 4: possibility now than ever was before. 1564 01:05:31,880 --> 01:05:36,080 Speaker 1: Tony got anything else for me A specialist, no specialist, 1565 01:05:36,480 --> 01:05:40,920 Speaker 1: that's it, kickers. How about some we'll say that. 1566 01:05:40,920 --> 01:05:46,200 Speaker 2: For next appearance, we'll snappers. 1567 01:05:45,040 --> 01:05:47,360 Speaker 1: Tell the folks everything you're doing with with with East 1568 01:05:47,400 --> 01:05:50,360 Speaker 1: West Shrine, where they can find the one thousand, your 1569 01:05:50,440 --> 01:05:52,160 Speaker 1: social media, whatever you want to know about. 1570 01:05:52,480 --> 01:05:54,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, we're excited. We've had a lot of growth in 1571 01:05:54,320 --> 01:05:56,120 Speaker 4: my last three years of Sean Bull from not just 1572 01:05:56,200 --> 01:05:58,640 Speaker 4: a draft pis standpoint, but I think from media and agents. 1573 01:05:58,680 --> 01:06:00,560 Speaker 4: I think players really appreciate you.
