1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,880 Speaker 1: Colorado doesn't want to pay the players, but it sure 2 00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:08,360 Speaker 1: wants you to gamble on sports. Yogi Roth comes up 3 00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:12,880 Speaker 1: with a six game spring season plan and the PAC 4 00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:18,400 Speaker 1: twelves testing partnerships may lead to an early return. Oregon 5 00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:22,439 Speaker 1: players are leaving in the droves for the NFL Draft, 6 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:27,240 Speaker 1: but Oregon State fans they do not want a refund 7 00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:31,040 Speaker 1: on their tickets. The Pack twelve and the Big Ten 8 00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:38,080 Speaker 1: might ultimately look like geniuses.

Ralph's A lot been going on in 27 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 1: the Pack twelve right now, man, I mean, but the 28 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: good news is at least we're not the Big ten, 29 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 1: right Like the Big ten has been going through turmoil 30 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: every single day. Oh we're coming back. No, we're not 31 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: coming back. You got all that, A d S president's fighting, 32 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: the government involved, like it's isn't at the one time 33 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 1: where it's great to be to Pack twelve right now. 34 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: I agree with you. However, there are others who believe 35 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 1: that that shows a lack of initiative and passion from 36 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 1: the Pack twelve. It's fans, it's athletic departments, it's players. Um. 37 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:31,640 Speaker 1: I'm I'm good to be drama free just for for 38 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 1: a minute and and let everybody else go out there 39 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 1: and take the take the bullets. Um. I'm good to 40 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:41,359 Speaker 1: just sit back and and and figure things out. Um. 41 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 1: But I have noticed that any bullets we do catch 42 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 1: or are are typically a criticism of our our in action, 43 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 1: I guess, but we did take action. We took action, 44 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 1: and action has been taken. So now we're chilling and 45 00:02:55,160 --> 00:03:00,679 Speaker 1: waiting for the next step, don't you think though that Well, 46 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 1: for for me, I like the fact that everybody is 47 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 1: on the same page, at least publicly, because all this 48 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: in fighting all. I mean, like the the last thing 49 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,639 Speaker 1: the Pact twelve needs to do is find a reason 50 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:18,800 Speaker 1: to hire more consultants if they were fighting each other publicly, 51 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 1: I mean and truthfully, with with the regulations in California 52 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,920 Speaker 1: and Oregon specifically, and then a little bit in Washington, 53 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 1: how can you even fight publicly? I mean, there's nothing 54 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: to do. There's no high school football happening, there's no 55 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 1: college football happening. The pro football testing is completely different, 56 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: so they're operating under different rules. I mean, the schools, 57 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 1: the colleges aren't on campuses, so it's a different scenario. 58 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: Because in the Big Ten you had these schools trying 59 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: to bring all these kids on campus, and then they've 60 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: a lot Wisconsin is shut down, um uh, Mississippi State 61 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: has had to and so have a lot of other 62 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: uh oologists, So it's like, how are you going to 63 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 1: continue to fight this if you were in the pac twelve. 64 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 1: I just I don't know. I mean, it makes me 65 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: want to go get a job as a consultant and 66 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 1: hope that the Pact twelve needs uh is feeling generous 67 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,359 Speaker 1: and wants to kick out some more cash for solutions 68 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:21,600 Speaker 1: that you should be able to come up with on 69 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 1: your own. UM, but I don't know. I'm watching what's 70 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: going on everywhere else with a very curious eye. Am 71 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 1: happy that football is back in part, you know, at 72 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: the same time watching Baylor have to delay, UM, watching 73 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:41,039 Speaker 1: Arkansas State after they beat Kansas State turn around and 74 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 1: have to shut things down and not be able to 75 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 1: play Central Arkansas b y U cancel against Army. UM. 76 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: The weird mixed reaction to coach O's comments that most 77 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: of his team has already had it. UM, I don't 78 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,600 Speaker 1: know the whole the whole thing is just fascinating and 79 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 1: and and I feel very much like an outside because 80 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: that's that's what we are now. We're just on the 81 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 1: outside looking in watching college football. And I felt for 82 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 1: the players who were tweeting on Saturday that they wish 83 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 1: that they could be out there, and that has to 84 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: be really tough for them, because there's still no plan. 85 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 1: We don't know if we're gonna get spring. We don't 86 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 1: know if we're gonna get late fall. You know, John 87 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,600 Speaker 1: Wilners out here saying that the possibility exists that they 88 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: could do something maybe starting in late October, but we 89 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: we don't know, and until we know, you know, we 90 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,039 Speaker 1: we just have to sit back and watch. I'm not 91 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 1: rooting for anybody to sail. I can say confidently, I 92 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: don't think that that's even possible. Like I did a 93 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:42,280 Speaker 1: calculation about when they could start, because so the whole 94 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 1: conference has to obviously start at one time, like have 95 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: a uniform start date. So Oregon players are supposed to 96 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 1: be back on campus September, okay, like that's the date 97 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: that they had given them to be recalled, which is 98 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 1: this upcoming Sunday. So but all of the campuses can't 99 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:06,599 Speaker 1: do that, like the the California schools aren't even clear 100 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 1: to be taking center quarterbacks center exchanges yet. So so 101 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 1: so so if you look at from today too, if 102 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 1: you look at from today, you've got six weeks from today, 103 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 1: which puts us at October twenty, because there's that six 104 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: week ramp up period that you have to have that 105 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: the n C double A in the BacT twelve has 106 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:32,160 Speaker 1: said is what they feel is enough time to get 107 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,799 Speaker 1: you ready. So that already puts you at October twentie. 108 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: So how does that work? Like, and when all your 109 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 1: schools aren't even gonna be recalled Utahs furlough their their 110 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: head coach, how does this work? I mean, it seems 111 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 1: like me the earliest that they could get get back. 112 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:58,039 Speaker 1: So let's say that everybody recalled their their players and 113 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: their students. Granted like some of them, like Oregons, have 114 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 1: already been recalled, and they're looking at September twenty, So 115 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 1: that puts it maybe Utah and some of the other 116 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 1: schools maybe first week of October maybe, So let's say 117 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: October four, and then you've got six weeks from there, 118 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: you're already looking at November eight or fift. I mean, so, 119 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 1: I I just don't know how this this works. And 120 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 1: these October start dates seem ridiculous to me. I mean, 121 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: when when would you? I know, I know that it 122 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: doesn't matter because it's not up to anybody because California 123 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: primarily and then Oregon as a state, the state government's 124 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: really actually control the narrative of what's going on here. 125 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 1: I mean, could you see could you see the possibility 126 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: of the half of the pack twelve moving forward with 127 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 1: the Big ten to do something if the Oregon schools 128 00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 1: and California schools can't participate, and would you support the 129 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 1: other schools that are not in states that have stricter 130 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 1: um policies towards everything that's going on? Would you would 131 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: you condone them participating without U S, C, U C 132 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 1: l A, Stanford, Oregon, Oregon State and cal No. No, 133 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 1: I don't think it's a good idea. The same way 134 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 1: I don't think it's a good idea for the Big 135 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 1: ten or the SEC or A C C or a 136 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: Big twelve to do it without everybody involved. I think 137 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:35,720 Speaker 1: that you create a monumental uh, like another thing to 138 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 1: fight about, because then you're gonna be fighting about who 139 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 1: gets the revenue. Oh, you didn't participate, so this is 140 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 1: all of our TV money. We're gonna split this like 141 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 1: you have just created a whole another can of worms. 142 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 1: And the other question is who the hell are you 143 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,199 Speaker 1: going to play? Who are you gonna play? Are you 144 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: gonna play all Big ten schools. How many of them 145 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 1: are there? Yeah? Well, I mean Yogi Roth did pitch 146 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 1: the idea of a six game season starting in the 147 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,839 Speaker 1: I guess not spring because spring starts March one, so 148 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 1: it would be more of a winter. UM, it would 149 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 1: be more of a winter season, a six game season. 150 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 1: Then you take the two UM Pack twelve teams that 151 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 1: are kind of a top the North and South, and 152 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: then they play the equivalent of a conference championship for 153 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: the seventh game, and then that is the self contained 154 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 1: Pack twelve season. What do you think of that? I 155 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 1: think it's an option. I think that's a thought. You know, 156 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 1: I've been more in favor of an eight game spring season, 157 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 1: and but I would consider a seven game with like 158 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 1: maybe a two game playoff between the UM with with 159 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 1: the Big Ten if you can marry up those schedules. 160 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 1: I think the optimal scenario for the PAC twelve is 161 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 1: to find a way to live and coexist with the 162 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 1: Big Ten in terms of scheduling. I mean, so you 163 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:14,320 Speaker 1: you should probably everybody should get a bowl, right, and 164 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 1: there's what there's fourteen Big Ten teams. Yeah, yeah, that 165 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 1: means there's enough people to play so maybe one Big 166 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 1: ten team is stuck playing another Big ten team in 167 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 1: a bowl and then everybody else gets matched up evenly 168 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,680 Speaker 1: across the board after a six or seven game season, 169 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 1: then everyone gets a bowl. And uh, I mean that 170 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 1: that could be that could be a cool thing. But 171 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,719 Speaker 1: what impression have you ever gotten that the Big ten 172 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: and PAC twelve are cooperating with each other? Because I'm 173 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 1: not sure I've ever really gotten that vibe, not at all, 174 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 1: not really. I mean, one following the other one around 175 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: doesn't put them on equal footing. So that's your take 176 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: on a that the PAC twelve is I'm sorry that 177 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 1: that that the Big ten is following the PAC twelve around. No, 178 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:10,560 Speaker 1: it's the opposite the pact. Yeah, it was a joke, 179 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 1: and I see, I mean it's like, what what how 180 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 1: did this kid lost? In translation? No, I just think 181 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: I think that I've never gotten the vibe that the 182 00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:25,199 Speaker 1: Big ten wants to be anything more than friends, if 183 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So I I just I 184 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 1: don't think that this relationship. I don't even hear anything 185 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: from the people at that you know that actually are 186 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,560 Speaker 1: in the room when it happens that the big decision 187 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 1: makers I don't hear anything from them that makes it 188 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: sound like there's any cooperation whatsoever. I'll tell you what 189 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 1: has been a huge year for completely obliterating this idea 190 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: that I've held firm to for the last few years, 191 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: which is that the conferences don't really matter that much. 192 00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 1: It's all just college football, and if we were to 193 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 1: do away with the conferences, we'd all kind of be 194 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: um better off to just have one big pool of 195 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 1: college football teams and people are allowed to play whoever 196 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 1: they play. Then you mash them up at the end 197 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 1: of the season, either in a playoff or based on 198 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,320 Speaker 1: you know, where they're where they're ranking, finishes out. I 199 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 1: always thought that the conference was the most expendable thing, 200 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 1: um about college football. And now, after and watching three 201 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 1: conferences go ahead and play while to sit back, and 202 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 1: the two that are sitting back don't seem to be 203 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 1: communicating with each other, I think I was mistaken. I 204 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: think the conferences not only matter, but are are probably 205 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 1: um firmly entrenched. Is maybe the most important thing about 206 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:53,320 Speaker 1: college football. And I don't think I like that that much. 207 00:12:56,200 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 1: It well, yeah, they are in control over pretty much everything. 208 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 1: And man, I am a person who believes that college 209 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 1: football needs to break away from all the other sports 210 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,439 Speaker 1: and that it needs to have its own individual commissioner 211 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 1: who presides over everything. That way you don't have the 212 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 1: problem that you have right right now. And they have 213 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 1: their own board of medical experts, so everybody is on 214 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 1: the same page. Because I think that when when you 215 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:35,320 Speaker 1: have five separate power five pages plus Notre Dame and 216 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 1: b y U, that that it just creates too much, 217 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 1: you know, like there there's there's too many cooks in 218 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 1: the kitchen. And also football is clearly different than every 219 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:52,079 Speaker 1: other sport a because it funds the other sports and 220 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 1: also because people haven't have a much bigger appetite for it, 221 00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So I think that college 222 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 1: football definitely does need to have its own thing, you so, 223 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 1: making it like club affiliate, not under the n C 224 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 1: Double A, not under the rules of amateurism. Correct, Correct, 225 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:18,719 Speaker 1: Because it's clear that the n C the n C 226 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 1: Double A, who said that they shouldn't be playing games anyway, 227 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 1: that they don't have any power over that, like they 228 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 1: have power over schools as far as basketball and all 229 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: the other sports that fall under the n C Double 230 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 1: A championships. But this isn't the n C Double This 231 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 1: isn't an n C Double A championship with football, So 232 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 1: they don't have the same power and jurisdiction over it. 233 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 1: So why why should they be in charge of anything 234 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 1: if they're really in charge of nothing already. Yeah, I 235 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 1: think they're gonna disagree with you. UM. I think you know, 236 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:00,400 Speaker 1: they're one of those entities that will do whatever it 237 00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 1: takes to justify their own existence UM. And and that 238 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 1: you know, they exist sort of just to fund themselves. 239 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 1: Every operation, every regulation, everything they come up with creates 240 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 1: jobs within the structure of the n C Double A, 241 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 1: whether it's enforcement UM or just you know, putting on tournaments. 242 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I got I got a friend who works 243 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,400 Speaker 1: relatively high up UM for the n C Double A, 244 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: and she's a good person. And so you know, when 245 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:36,800 Speaker 1: I speak with any animosity over the organization in general, 246 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 1: I don't think that they're out to do harm or 247 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 1: cause evil or anything like that. I just think that 248 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 1: it's an organization that exists to justify its own existence, 249 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 1: just like a lot of organizations, just like a lot 250 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 1: of bureaucracies. UM, rules are good if you are the 251 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 1: rule keeper, if you're in the rule keeping business, then 252 00:15:55,800 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 1: rules are good. Um, and you know, I just I 253 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 1: don't know. I think life away from the n C 254 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 1: Double A wouldn't be uh utopia. I'm sure that the 255 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 1: n C Double A does some things that the leagues 256 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:18,160 Speaker 1: of themselves would have a hard time duplicating. But I 257 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 1: just at this point, I don't really see the overall usefulness. 258 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 1: I think it can be duplicated. I think it can 259 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 1: be I think they can be cut out of the process. 260 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 1: I think it can be privatized and uh and I 261 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 1: think we can do way with amateurism all together and 262 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 1: make sure that the people who work to make sure 263 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 1: this whole racket is being funded get compensated accordingly, and 264 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 1: at the same time keep some sort of club affiliation 265 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 1: with the schools so the schools can benefit themselves. But 266 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 1: what does that mean for conferences? George? Would you would 267 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 1: would that be the end of conferences as we know it? 268 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 1: Or would that give the conferences even more power because 269 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 1: they would essentially be in charge of all of the 270 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 1: the governing and whatnot. Well, I think that we're moving well. 271 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:15,639 Speaker 1: I thought we were moving toward a potential sixty four 272 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 1: team Power Power conference plus notre Dame and b y U. 273 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 1: I thought that that's where we were heading, But it 274 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:29,159 Speaker 1: seems like with the difference conferences already operating on their 275 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: own agendas, that that that they all want to keep 276 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 1: their autonomy, you know, to twelve pack twelve teams make 277 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:41,400 Speaker 1: that Power sixty four conference. Yeah, but but so do 278 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:46,680 Speaker 1: Maryland and Vanderbilt and you know, and and UH and 279 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 1: all the other and Rutgers and all the other bad schools. 280 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 1: And unless you kick them out and bring in you know, 281 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:59,159 Speaker 1: Memphis and Houston, you could you could have like a 282 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:01,639 Speaker 1: promotion and legation type thing that could be a lot 283 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 1: of fun to where you have like a Power five 284 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 1: and a group of five, and if you win your 285 00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 1: Power five conference, you get bumped up. If you're top 286 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 1: two in your group of five conference, you get bumped up, 287 00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:16,119 Speaker 1: and if your bottom two in your Power five, you 288 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:22,680 Speaker 1: get bumped down. Dude, I love that idea to relegation 289 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 1: in sports. I wish we had that here in the 290 00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 1: United States. I would, I promise you, I would be 291 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 1: all in on relegation because the fact that you're always 292 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:38,679 Speaker 1: playing for your seat at the table makes it just 293 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:41,960 Speaker 1: that much more interesting. And that's something that soccer gets right. 294 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 1: That is something that they absolutely get right. It would 295 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 1: be interesting to see, like, you know, Boise State get 296 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 1: thrown into the pack twelve based on their Mountain West performance. 297 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 1: You know that that would be I think that'd be 298 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 1: a lot of fun. Maybe you would have schools like 299 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:00,440 Speaker 1: b y U and and Notre Dame would have to 300 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 1: make some pretty important decisions. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that that's 301 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:13,880 Speaker 1: very true. Um, there is something significant going on though 302 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: with the well actually before we even get through the 303 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 1: return to play. I just want to tell people because 304 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 1: there was a hearing today on the name, image and 305 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 1: likeness stuff as it relates to college football players being 306 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 1: able to make money off of their name, image and likeness. 307 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 1: And there are so many people that believe that the 308 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,440 Speaker 1: game will change and the fundamental things that they love 309 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 1: about college sports will will change. But I just don't 310 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: see that because it's already a business like like these 311 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:51,680 Speaker 1: like some of these kids have already been uh either paid, 312 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: got gotten special treatment. They and they understand what it 313 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 1: what it is, and they also understand too that it's 314 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 1: a business for everybody else. Everybody else around them is 315 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:06,880 Speaker 1: getting rich and they're not even asking to get rich. 316 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,400 Speaker 1: They're just asking to be able to trade off their name, 317 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:12,080 Speaker 1: image and likeness like he'd be able to be like 318 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:15,639 Speaker 1: every other student on campus. It is weird because you know, 319 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 1: I followed Spencer Rattler and he just got his first 320 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 1: start pro Oklahoma four touchdown passes in the first half 321 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 1: and continuing the the Oklahoma tradition of of absolutely bawling 322 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,560 Speaker 1: out in Lincoln Riley's offense from the quarterback position. And 323 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,880 Speaker 1: so you know, he's out there with Charleston Rambo and 324 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 1: he uh is gonna be a household name. He's got 325 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 1: a cool name too, and he's got sort of a 326 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 1: unique look and his game reminds people of Patrick Mahomes 327 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 1: and you know, it's it's gonna be um. There's gonna 328 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 1: be a lot of opportunities for Spencer Rattler to take 329 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,639 Speaker 1: advantage of from this point on. If he just keeps 330 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: his head in the playbook where he's about taking care 331 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 1: of business, he'll be fine. But when he was in 332 00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 1: high school, when he was a freshman, sophomore, junior in 333 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:04,160 Speaker 1: high school, his I mean, he he was pretty well 334 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 1: known out here, and I remember him and his dad 335 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:11,200 Speaker 1: got together and they came up with clothing brand idea. 336 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 1: It was like nappy Heads clothing or something like that, 337 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 1: and they were selling T shirts and all that comes 338 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 1: to an end the second that he heads out to 339 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:25,119 Speaker 1: the University of Oklahoma, and I just remember thinking how 340 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:28,680 Speaker 1: stupid that is that this was a dude who had 341 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:32,359 Speaker 1: offers before he ever took a snap his freshman year 342 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,399 Speaker 1: in high school. He was committed to University of Oklahoma 343 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: for over two years. Thousands upon thousands of people knew 344 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 1: who he was before he ever had to back up 345 00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts and red shirt. And this dude can't even 346 00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 1: sell the T shirts that he spent three and a 347 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 1: half years selling as a student at University of Oklahoma. 348 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 1: And I think that that's that's absurd to me. Yep, 349 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:05,159 Speaker 1: I totally agree with you, like because the idea that 350 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 1: these kids have no value besides as there you know, 351 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 1: as it relates to the school is ridiculous. And the 352 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 1: idea that they can't make money that doesn't come from 353 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:24,439 Speaker 1: the school, whether it's from YouTube, podcast anything that that, 354 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 1: mind you, it's not coming out of the school's pocket. 355 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:31,439 Speaker 1: I just cannot understand it and or understand how you 356 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:36,920 Speaker 1: can be okay morally with with them being treated differently 357 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 1: than other students on campus, and and not recognizing the 358 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 1: sacrifice because so many people will will will say, oh, 359 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 1: they're getting a free ride there. You know, they're living 360 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:54,440 Speaker 1: this luxurious life, but in reality, they don't realize how 361 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:57,879 Speaker 1: much that they have to sacrifice while they're there to 362 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 1: go to school and play ball, and how much sacrifice 363 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 1: it took to get where they are. Like my fourteen 364 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,680 Speaker 1: year old son, he just started high school of two 365 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 1: weeks ago, all through the pandemic, this dude has been 366 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 1: working out at least at least fourteen to twenty hours 367 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 1: a week, fourteen to twenty hours a week during the pandemic, 368 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 1: all by himself or with me, or in in the 369 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 1: gym with nobody else there left, and weights at home, 370 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:33,879 Speaker 1: running all this stuff that nobody else will not know, 371 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:35,719 Speaker 1: nobody because there are other kids who are doing it 372 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:39,920 Speaker 1: on their own time too, but that other people aren't 373 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:43,160 Speaker 1: willing to make these sacrifices. It's a hundred degrees outside, 374 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 1: he's still outside working. It's it's, you know, whatever, whatever 375 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:51,160 Speaker 1: the conditions he saw today, doesn't feel like he's still 376 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 1: got to get out and go to work because he's 377 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:56,399 Speaker 1: trying to earn himself a college scholarship, and how many 378 00:23:56,440 --> 00:24:01,359 Speaker 1: of you were willing to do that? That that's the question. 379 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 1: I mean, granted it does take some guy given ability, 380 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 1: but you still have to sacrifice to be able to 381 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,520 Speaker 1: do it. It's always weird to me when you can 382 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:13,120 Speaker 1: be envious of the shoes that somebody else puts on 383 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,480 Speaker 1: and not be willing to metaphorically put them on yourself. 384 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,800 Speaker 1: So you know, we got we got athletes who are 385 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:23,640 Speaker 1: making millions and millions and millions of dollars for their 386 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 1: college athletic programs and the colleges in general, Like they 387 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 1: are generating all of this revenue. And I just look 388 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 1: at somebody and say, like, if you're the most valuable 389 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:40,960 Speaker 1: person at your job, and you could say that they 390 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 1: literally could not function if it was not for you, 391 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 1: and that other people's paychecks were dependent upon you showing 392 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 1: up and performing. But your entire um, your entire compensation 393 00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 1: from that company is the uniform you get to where 394 00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:04,879 Speaker 1: to work, the desk that you get to sit in 395 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 1: at work, and lunch in the break room at work. 396 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 1: But no paycheck. They would say, like that's insane, and 397 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:16,639 Speaker 1: and I would say, okay, but what about the people 398 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 1: out there who don't get lunch in the break room 399 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:22,639 Speaker 1: at work and don't have new clothes to where that 400 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:25,399 Speaker 1: their employer provides. And what about all those people that 401 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,639 Speaker 1: would love to sit in an air conditioned office at 402 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 1: your desk, And you'd say too bad, Like they're not 403 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 1: in my position making money for the company. I'm worried 404 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:37,640 Speaker 1: about myself and and people can see that. They can 405 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 1: see that when you make it about them, But you 406 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 1: have to force them into that situation. I think that 407 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 1: one of the biggest reasons. And uh, I got in 408 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 1: a massive online argument with you. You probably know him 409 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:55,919 Speaker 1: from political Twitter. Have you ever seen Eugene Scott? Yeah, okay, 410 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:58,440 Speaker 1: so Eugene Scotty worked. You went to Harvard. We worked 411 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 1: for CNN. He's somewhere else now. Me and Eugene Scott 412 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 1: used to go to church together here in temper Arizona, 413 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:06,280 Speaker 1: so I knew him. He followed me on Twitter. I 414 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:09,399 Speaker 1: followed him. Uh. And and back in the day I 415 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 1: said something, I mean, this is years ago. I remember 416 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 1: tweeting like, I really hope that college football players can 417 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:22,240 Speaker 1: start to get the piece of the pie that they deserve, 418 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:26,159 Speaker 1: which is just that that it be proportional that everybody 419 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: else is making more and more money every single year. 420 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:32,479 Speaker 1: I hope that the kids can see an increased portion, 421 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 1: because their portion has stayed the same size. And he 422 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:40,160 Speaker 1: went into this whole thing about how all the athletes 423 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:43,479 Speaker 1: on campus were the most spoiled and and you know, 424 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:45,680 Speaker 1: he had to work for everything, and he would love 425 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 1: to get some of the advantages that they got and 426 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 1: everything like that. You know, this is a few years ago, 427 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 1: so maybe he's changed his tune or whatever, But I 428 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:56,679 Speaker 1: remember just at the time, like knowing knowing Eugene, knowing 429 00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:01,160 Speaker 1: how um into like different social justice issues and causes 430 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 1: he was, and I just couldn't. I couldn't get him 431 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:08,200 Speaker 1: to see past the fact that other people he went 432 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 1: to college with had more than him. Like he couldn't. 433 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:15,120 Speaker 1: It couldn't register with him that it's because they did 434 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:19,880 Speaker 1: more like that. I couldn't make those two things connect. 435 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 1: And I've struggled really really hard to figure out how 436 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:28,080 Speaker 1: to make that simple thing connect in people's minds. What 437 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 1: are the million different ways that you can say this 438 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 1: to say, you know, well, they have all this stuff 439 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 1: that a regular student doesn't have. A regular student doesn't 440 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: net millions for the university. It's just it's it's very 441 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:47,199 Speaker 1: very simple. I mean, would you get mad you know 442 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 1: the whole Like McCauley Colkin had like seven brothers and 443 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 1: sisters and and a few of them got on TV, 444 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 1: but he was doing home alone and Richie rich Michael 445 00:27:56,160 --> 00:28:02,040 Speaker 1: Jackson music videos. Um, his brothers and sisters could certainly 446 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 1: get mad if he had the coolest stuff in his 447 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 1: bedroom at their house. Right, they could. But at some 448 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:12,439 Speaker 1: point you have to face down the truth that like, 449 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:19,159 Speaker 1: but who paid for those things? Yeah, like we get it, 450 00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:26,440 Speaker 1: but you know m colleague did go to work every day. Yeah, 451 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 1: and then so that's that's just I want people to see, like, yeah, 452 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 1: it might look like those students who who aren't there 453 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:37,119 Speaker 1: for school for the most part, and you're there for 454 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 1: school and you're taking on debt and they're not, and 455 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 1: you understand what that debt means to you and your lifestyle, 456 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 1: um from here on out, and you're taking harder classes. 457 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 1: You're both considered students, um when when you're doing a 458 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 1: lot more student oriented things than than maybe they are. 459 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 1: And you can look at that situation and say, um, 460 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 1: you know they they don't, uh, they're already good, Like 461 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:07,720 Speaker 1: they're already good. They're not wondering where their next meal 462 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:10,800 Speaker 1: is coming from. UM, for the most part, like why 463 00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 1: should they get more? And I understand that perspective in 464 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 1: a vacuum. I don't understand that perspective when everything is 465 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 1: laid out on the table of of like, hey, that's 466 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:25,480 Speaker 1: all they're allowed to have, but it's everything that their 467 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:28,600 Speaker 1: effort has paid for. It would it would also be 468 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 1: nice if that level of energy was put towards the 469 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:35,080 Speaker 1: coaches and they're inflated salaries, and I just don't ever 470 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:37,960 Speaker 1: see that. And that's the thing that gets really confusing 471 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 1: for me, is it's okay for an offensive coordinator to 472 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 1: pull in one point two million, but it's not okay 473 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:52,160 Speaker 1: for your you know, running back to um tweet out 474 00:29:52,160 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 1: a Patreon for his rap album right right, that's you 475 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 1: hit the nail right on the head with that one. UM. Okay. 476 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:09,160 Speaker 1: So one of the issues were coming back obviously has 477 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 1: been testing, testing, testing, testing, myocarditis and contact tracing. Those 478 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 1: are the three things that have stopped the Big ten, 479 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:21,960 Speaker 1: stopped the Pack twelve, stop the states out here on 480 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:25,720 Speaker 1: the West coast, and now with the pac twelves new 481 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 1: testing partners, which actually really started in in Arizona. UM. 482 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 1: So there was the regular tests that took forty eight hours, 483 00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 1: the the standard you know testing procedures where they spent 484 00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 1: them up a few times. All of that when in 485 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 1: the machines. So now there's this antigen antigen test that 486 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:54,959 Speaker 1: takes fifteen minutes. Started in Arizona. They started with twenty 487 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 1: five tests, and they did a thousand, and they did 488 00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 1: ten thousand, and they did twenty five thousand tests and 489 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 1: they're getting in between ninety six percent the same results 490 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 1: as the old school for the eight hour tests, which 491 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:12,560 Speaker 1: means that if you take UM tests on back to 492 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 1: back days that you're gonna be looking at UM like accuracy. 493 00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 1: So okay, so um that puts the Pack twelve in 494 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 1: a position to potentially come back and financially you're looking 495 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 1: at for testing for football I think alone, they were 496 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 1: talking about like three fifty thou dollars in testing and 497 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 1: the testing is uh, the device that you use is 498 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:46,240 Speaker 1: is portable, that it's a reasonable situation that test costs 499 00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 1: instead of being like thirty five bucks, are like twenty 500 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 1: one bucks apiece. So this is a big deal. And 501 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:58,680 Speaker 1: now this may bring bring the Pack twelve back and 502 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 1: you know, the Big Well is adopting this same testing 503 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 1: procedure even though they haven't fully rolled it rolled it 504 00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 1: out yet. So, Ralph, where do you see things headed? 505 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,480 Speaker 1: I was excited when I first, you know, I was 506 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 1: tuned into the press conference with Larry Scott and the 507 00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:18,520 Speaker 1: founder of QUAIDL I think the company's called, and then 508 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:21,560 Speaker 1: they had a couple of doctors on there too, and um, 509 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 1: I was pretty psyched until Bruce Feldman asked the question 510 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,560 Speaker 1: of like, hey, do you have this relationship with other teams? 511 00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 1: And the founder of quite L was like, yeah, you know, 512 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 1: I don't have disclosure agreements from them too to be 513 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:39,320 Speaker 1: able to talk about our our partnership, but yes. And 514 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 1: so I went into this thinking that the Pact twelve 515 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 1: got ahold of something that was super atitative and unique 516 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:48,200 Speaker 1: to unique to us. And then I realized, like, oh no, 517 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 1: this is just another Larry Scott press conference that could 518 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:56,360 Speaker 1: have been a press release, Like this is completely unnecessary. 519 00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 1: They're already working with a bunch of other teams. Why 520 00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:00,920 Speaker 1: are we out here make a big deal out of 521 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:04,479 Speaker 1: doing the things that we're supposed to do. Somebody asked 522 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 1: me Um, this dude named Aaron Torres that I do 523 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,320 Speaker 1: a show with sometimes on Fox Sports Radio. He said, 524 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:13,840 Speaker 1: why does every single time to PAC twelve make a 525 00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 1: press released, they act like it's the greatest thing in 526 00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:19,520 Speaker 1: the whole world, he said. He said, everything is like, 527 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 1: oh my god, this is the one, this is the 528 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:25,000 Speaker 1: game changer, this is the most amazing thing in the 529 00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:28,640 Speaker 1: whole world. And then you find out it's pretty regular. Yeah, 530 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:32,120 Speaker 1: and then I hate that I got tricked, and I did. 531 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 1: I did, like until Bruce Feldman asked that question. I 532 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 1: was like, whoa this is? This is gonna be massive, 533 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:41,840 Speaker 1: like this is this is gonna be really great. And 534 00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 1: then it's like, come to find out, the Pact twelve 535 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:49,640 Speaker 1: is just partnering as a as a conference with a 536 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:51,920 Speaker 1: company that a bunch of other schools had already partnered 537 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 1: with individually, including schools within the PAC twelve, And so 538 00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:00,480 Speaker 1: you know that that that was a little bit frustrating 539 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 1: to me. And then, um, well I think it was 540 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:07,280 Speaker 1: Nicole Aurobach asked about the cost and they said that 541 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,640 Speaker 1: that was confidential, and I don't know if that didn't 542 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:12,440 Speaker 1: sit right with me because he did say that the 543 00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:15,800 Speaker 1: schools were going to absorb the cost of the tests, 544 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,640 Speaker 1: and then with the University of Utah just furloughing everybody 545 00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:22,279 Speaker 1: and shutting everything down. I remember calling you and being like, 546 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 1: are they doing that to avoid not having to purchase 547 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 1: a bunch of quite ill tests? Like that? That was 548 00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 1: the first thing that came into my mind. I was like, 549 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:33,279 Speaker 1: did they just save themselves a bunch of money? And 550 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:37,120 Speaker 1: so um loved loved the initial idea of a press 551 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:41,000 Speaker 1: conference saying like, hey, we're making progress. Did not love 552 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 1: having a press conference to not be able to say 553 00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:50,280 Speaker 1: anything definitive or give the type of transparency that should 554 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:54,880 Speaker 1: probably be afforded to taxpayer funded institutions. And did also 555 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:57,839 Speaker 1: also was not a huge fan of finding out that 556 00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 1: there wasn't really anything unique about this sort of pomp 557 00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:05,359 Speaker 1: and circumstance was a little bit um unnecessary. But the 558 00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 1: the the idea that this is out there and can 559 00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 1: be used to potentially, you know, not only save the 560 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:16,279 Speaker 1: football season, but really helped track for public health, you know, 561 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:20,000 Speaker 1: the spread and origins of outbreaks and everything like that. 562 00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:22,479 Speaker 1: You know that that part of it is is really 563 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,920 Speaker 1: exciting because the more we understand about this disease and 564 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:29,680 Speaker 1: who it affects and who are susceptible and and and 565 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:32,960 Speaker 1: what long term side effects you know, to look out for. 566 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,319 Speaker 1: The more that we know, the better off we're gonna be. 567 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:38,480 Speaker 1: And so just the the science behind everything that's going 568 00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:42,080 Speaker 1: on excites me. Um the way the Pack twelve used 569 00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:45,120 Speaker 1: it to give itself a pad on the back, Um 570 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:50,160 Speaker 1: did not. Did not. Yeah, yeah, it was bad, dude. 571 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:54,040 Speaker 1: And and then when he asked to be on Dan 572 00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:57,959 Speaker 1: Patrick two, and he's made his rounds on a couple 573 00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:01,520 Speaker 1: of other shows, it was like, you asked to be 574 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:04,160 Speaker 1: on what I thought you were going to say something? 575 00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:06,479 Speaker 1: You know, he didn't come on and give us any 576 00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:12,360 Speaker 1: groundbreaking news like you don't see Greg Sanky Uh calling commissioner, 577 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:15,880 Speaker 1: a big of the SEC calling in to give some 578 00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:20,440 Speaker 1: like some non news news. I mean like like it 579 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:23,279 Speaker 1: could be done in a tweet just as easily as 580 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 1: anything else and it would not create false hope with 581 00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 1: uh with people. But I remember asking him like should 582 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:36,520 Speaker 1: I watch this? And You're like, no, we have a 583 00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:39,320 Speaker 1: Pack twelve podcast and it would probably behoove me to 584 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 1: like follow along what our conference commissioners doing within the 585 00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:46,799 Speaker 1: national media. And I was like, Hey, is this a thing? 586 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:48,920 Speaker 1: Because I got tricked yesterday and you're like, it's not 587 00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:52,239 Speaker 1: And I did not watch it because I mean, at 588 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:56,520 Speaker 1: this point, it's just you know, he he rarely has 589 00:36:56,680 --> 00:37:02,799 Speaker 1: anything to say anything new. He's not the type of 590 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:06,359 Speaker 1: person his way into a new contract. He is. He 591 00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:11,360 Speaker 1: is doing everything possible to position himself to get a 592 00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:15,719 Speaker 1: new contract that so he can screw up another television deal. 593 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:22,959 Speaker 1: He is the Ikea furniture of conference commissioners. You gotta 594 00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:28,880 Speaker 1: put it together yourself. Yeah, you gotta put it together yourself. 595 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:32,560 Speaker 1: So it's your your time, your effort, your labor, and 596 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,240 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, it's mostly just particle 597 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 1: board and so you know that. And that's really like 598 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 1: I was like, oh man, he's gonna be on Dan Patrick, awesome, George, 599 00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:47,080 Speaker 1: should I watch this? And You're like no, So, I 600 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:50,440 Speaker 1: mean that's kind of where we're Yeah, that way, it's 601 00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 1: at least that said has the date of kickoff. That's 602 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:57,960 Speaker 1: the next time that I'll give him my full attention. Facts, um, 603 00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:04,960 Speaker 1: somebody who a team that? Okay? There there were some 604 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:08,279 Speaker 1: sad news this past weekend. Obviously the Pack twelve what 605 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 1: was not playing but a game that I was looking 606 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:18,800 Speaker 1: forward to was Oregon versus Ohio State. Were you looking 607 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:23,960 Speaker 1: forward to that game? You you think it was in Eugene. 608 00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:26,880 Speaker 1: I had made sure I didn't have to work, dude. 609 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:30,480 Speaker 1: I had planned this out. I was taking my whole family, 610 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:34,280 Speaker 1: like everything. Dude, this was the game. I've been looking 611 00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:38,240 Speaker 1: forward to this game for years. Right and but but 612 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 1: but on the side, No, as we've seen with scheduling, 613 00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:44,439 Speaker 1: we don't need to schedule games twenty years in in 614 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,640 Speaker 1: in advance. It can be done in a week obviously. Um, 615 00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:49,719 Speaker 1: but so we can do it a year in advance. 616 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:57,320 Speaker 1: But that's but I digress. Um. The it was sad 617 00:38:57,480 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 1: because even if the Pack twelve were playing, that game 618 00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:05,040 Speaker 1: would have been canceled anyway. So I want to give 619 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:08,680 Speaker 1: a shout out to the people in northern California, the 620 00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 1: people in Oregon who are suffering from the fires. I 621 00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:14,960 Speaker 1: know you guys are really going through it. You know, 622 00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:20,640 Speaker 1: I'm talking about the football game, but like the Orange skies, 623 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:28,280 Speaker 1: the hazardous air, the breathing conditions, Pray that everybody's house, 624 00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 1: home and families are are doing a Okay. I got 625 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:38,440 Speaker 1: a groomsman of mine who is a wildland firefighter. Um 626 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:40,600 Speaker 1: smoke jumper, and he had spent most of the year 627 00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 1: in Arizona and up until a couple of weeks ago, 628 00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:45,840 Speaker 1: and I reached out to him and asked him, you know, 629 00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 1: how how he's doing because he was out here fighting 630 00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:50,680 Speaker 1: fires in a hundred and twenty degree weather, you know, 631 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:54,239 Speaker 1: sleeping outside, and and uh he was like, well, um 632 00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:57,719 Speaker 1: on on the positive, you know, fire season, Uh, it 633 00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:00,279 Speaker 1: looks like it's it could be coming to a close soon. 634 00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 1: And Arizona made sure all my bills are paid for 635 00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:05,480 Speaker 1: the rest of the year. And I was like, all right, man, 636 00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:10,239 Speaker 1: be safe and uh. And you know, thinking that, thinking that, 637 00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:12,200 Speaker 1: you know, it was kind of going to be the 638 00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:15,640 Speaker 1: end of the season for him, and he's been he's 639 00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:18,320 Speaker 1: been out in California for for three weeks now and 640 00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:20,640 Speaker 1: and we'll be there for the foreseeable future. And so, 641 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 1: you know, hopefully they can get some of this stuff 642 00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:27,880 Speaker 1: contained and we can maybe start to take a little 643 00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:30,880 Speaker 1: bit more of an honest look at why the entire 644 00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:35,600 Speaker 1: West Coast is is a giant burning hellscape, because it's 645 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:37,400 Speaker 1: very possible that we might have something to do with it. 646 00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:42,400 Speaker 1: So hopefully, um yeah, hopefully people are safe. I don't know, 647 00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:45,160 Speaker 1: you still got connections in Oregon. George, I heard you 648 00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:47,799 Speaker 1: know a bunch of people are having to evacuate. You 649 00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:50,440 Speaker 1: have any people up there that had to take off? Yeah? Yeah, 650 00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:52,919 Speaker 1: I know a bunch of people that that that did. 651 00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:58,560 Speaker 1: And unfortunately they their families either live in northern California 652 00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:02,640 Speaker 1: or in Oregon or in Washington. So there's nowhere to go, 653 00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:06,520 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, So like their evacuation only 654 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:11,000 Speaker 1: lead them to another place that needed that may ultimately 655 00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:13,520 Speaker 1: need to be evacuated. I think at the end of 656 00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:15,520 Speaker 1: the day, everyone's just gonna have to follow Joe Rogan 657 00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:21,359 Speaker 1: to Texas. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, you can't burn everything up 658 00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:28,000 Speaker 1: there because of the because of the topography. But um, 659 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 1: but yeah, And the whole point of that was just 660 00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:37,000 Speaker 1: that the Ohio State Oregon game wasn't happening this weekend regardless, 661 00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:41,000 Speaker 1: like so because of the smoke quality, because of the 662 00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:43,080 Speaker 1: air quality and all of that, and that made me 663 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:46,960 Speaker 1: kind of sad. And then also just would you have 664 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:48,839 Speaker 1: been a post would you have been opposed to them 665 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:54,600 Speaker 1: moving it to Columbus No, No, no, I don't think so. 666 00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:57,719 Speaker 1: I mean, because like the game would have had to 667 00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:00,920 Speaker 1: be played, uh see, but I don't know if they 668 00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:03,399 Speaker 1: would have done it, because it puts the team at 669 00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:08,040 Speaker 1: such a unique disadvantage because their their hearts and minds 670 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:12,120 Speaker 1: are back at at home. They're worried about their people, 671 00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:14,200 Speaker 1: their dogs, their loved one, you know what I mean. 672 00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:17,040 Speaker 1: Like it just puts you at a and then the 673 00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:20,719 Speaker 1: coaches homes, their their their families, administrators, all the people 674 00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,640 Speaker 1: that have to go to the games. I think that that, 675 00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:26,959 Speaker 1: you know, playing it would have been very difficult even 676 00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:30,719 Speaker 1: if the season we're going on. I absolutely love discussing 677 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:37,719 Speaker 1: twice canceled hypothetical football games with you, Um, but well, 678 00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:46,520 Speaker 1: even if the even if the season was still well, 679 00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:49,400 Speaker 1: I actually, well, if the season does go on in 680 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:52,719 Speaker 1: the Big Ten, in the Pac twelve, do mary schedules. 681 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:55,640 Speaker 1: I was hoping that that could come to a quicker 682 00:42:55,680 --> 00:43:00,239 Speaker 1: agreement than not, because Oregon was gonna have one of 683 00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:03,839 Speaker 1: the best secondaries in the country and now they're gonna 684 00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:09,840 Speaker 1: be very young because they have Diamador Lenore starting corner, 685 00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 1: they've had um Thomas Graham starting corner, and Pine Seul 686 00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:20,560 Speaker 1: all world one of the best best packed twelve linemen 687 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:24,280 Speaker 1: in a long time, I'll leave to the NFL draft. 688 00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:29,880 Speaker 1: So they bounced too early. M okay, So here is 689 00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:34,520 Speaker 1: Paul absolutely not. If he were my son, he'd be 690 00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:38,319 Speaker 1: making this exact same decision. We'll wrap you up in 691 00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:41,160 Speaker 1: bubble wrap and then we're gonna go. But see, I 692 00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:44,040 Speaker 1: think you see I tweeted from the Pack twelve Apostles account, 693 00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:47,800 Speaker 1: and I didn't check the the ultimate results of the poll, 694 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:51,000 Speaker 1: but I think it was you know, where would you 695 00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:54,240 Speaker 1: take him? And I think it was first overall? Uh, 696 00:43:54,520 --> 00:44:01,480 Speaker 1: behind only Clemson's quarterback three through five or six through ten. 697 00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:05,719 Speaker 1: Where do you fall on that? Um? I mean I 698 00:44:05,760 --> 00:44:08,279 Speaker 1: think that the only player that you take above him 699 00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:12,440 Speaker 1: is well, if it depends on who gets that draftic 700 00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:14,480 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like if you're a team 701 00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:19,080 Speaker 1: that like if your quarterback, like if if TWA got 702 00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:23,480 Speaker 1: hurt or something, or and Miami didn't win a game 703 00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:25,440 Speaker 1: and they end up with the number number one draft pick, 704 00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 1: I'm not taking Trevor Lawrence like I'm gonna take put 705 00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:32,479 Speaker 1: A Seal. But you don't think Steve Khan maybe set 706 00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:34,839 Speaker 1: the trend for that by taking Kyler Murray right after 707 00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:41,880 Speaker 1: Josh Rosen. Uh, well, they hired a new head coach. 708 00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:47,400 Speaker 1: I think that. Yeah, I think the situation was was different, 709 00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:50,640 Speaker 1: you know what I mean like that, Um that the 710 00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:53,759 Speaker 1: circumstance played big into it, and they were trying to 711 00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:58,359 Speaker 1: convince Kyler Murray to not play baseball too. Yeah, so 712 00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:00,480 Speaker 1: he had to, you know, he kind had to be 713 00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:03,080 Speaker 1: the number one pick for him to, you know, just 714 00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:05,279 Speaker 1: be like, all right, dude, I'm done with with with 715 00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:09,680 Speaker 1: baseball because he realized that he could make more from 716 00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:13,320 Speaker 1: being a top flight quarterback than you can playing baseball 717 00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:15,840 Speaker 1: without being one of the most elite players in the 718 00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:21,680 Speaker 1: whole league. Um, okay, so they So you have Oregon 719 00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:27,840 Speaker 1: players leaving and plus Walker little from from Stanford. There 720 00:45:27,880 --> 00:45:31,040 Speaker 1: are a few like how many other packtroll players do 721 00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:34,200 Speaker 1: you think they're gonna opt out of the season, Because 722 00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:36,680 Speaker 1: what I told a couple of them when I talked 723 00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:38,880 Speaker 1: to him was I said, here's the thing that you 724 00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:42,319 Speaker 1: have to pay attention to. Is the first thing is 725 00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:47,959 Speaker 1: people always over well typically they overvalue how they see 726 00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:52,439 Speaker 1: themselves versus how the NFL sees them. That's the first thing. 727 00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:56,680 Speaker 1: I mean, prime, prime example to tight end at Washington 728 00:45:56,800 --> 00:45:58,800 Speaker 1: and Trey Adams a lot what what what was the 729 00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:05,080 Speaker 1: named Hunter and the h the tackle Tray Adams who 730 00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:07,839 Speaker 1: neither of them got drafted coming out as junior. So 731 00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:10,600 Speaker 1: that's first thing. I know there were some injuries potentially 732 00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:13,040 Speaker 1: involved with it and stuff like that, but but still 733 00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:18,200 Speaker 1: the other thing is is that you have if the 734 00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:22,040 Speaker 1: NFL season does get stopped for whatever reason because of 735 00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:25,439 Speaker 1: COVID or does have to push back and pushes back 736 00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:28,880 Speaker 1: the draft to like June or something, then you would 737 00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:31,440 Speaker 1: be better off plane because there's gonna be a lot 738 00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:35,160 Speaker 1: of people who make money in between there with their 739 00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:38,080 Speaker 1: seasons that are gonna be be played, like prime example, 740 00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:41,440 Speaker 1: guys like Joe Joe Burrow last year and other people 741 00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:44,440 Speaker 1: like him who flew up the draft board because of 742 00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:48,719 Speaker 1: how well they played. So you have to take that 743 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:52,200 Speaker 1: into account. So if it were me, I would not 744 00:46:53,120 --> 00:46:56,279 Speaker 1: declare to leave yet. I would be still in a 745 00:46:56,360 --> 00:47:01,160 Speaker 1: wait and see mode. But what still working out? Yeah? Well, 746 00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:04,960 Speaker 1: so why what's the point of announcing now when the 747 00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:09,120 Speaker 1: possibility could exist that a season, uh and maybe mid 748 00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:13,800 Speaker 1: November is ready to go and you would end maybe 749 00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:16,520 Speaker 1: around the same time that you would end otherwise. Want 750 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:21,279 Speaker 1: to make the decision now, I don't, I don't, I 751 00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:25,200 Speaker 1: don't know. I think that there's a level of kind 752 00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:30,800 Speaker 1: of understanding that you want to have a plan, but 753 00:47:31,120 --> 00:47:35,239 Speaker 1: it's not necessary at this time because like you can 754 00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:40,319 Speaker 1: still be working out training without having an agent and 755 00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:43,359 Speaker 1: all of that. So I would stick to that as 756 00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:46,560 Speaker 1: of right now unless I am pena sul, unless I 757 00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:51,440 Speaker 1: am Trevor Lawrence or you know, a top tier player 758 00:47:51,960 --> 00:47:55,200 Speaker 1: where I know where I'm going to get drafted for sure, 759 00:47:55,239 --> 00:47:57,480 Speaker 1: because he's not fallen out of the first first round, 760 00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:02,640 Speaker 1: so like there's no away. Yeah, so I'm yeah, so 761 00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:05,439 Speaker 1: I'm going off to go work out, but if I'm 762 00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:08,080 Speaker 1: not sure where I land or I think I'm second, third, 763 00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:11,880 Speaker 1: fourth round and I'm gonna play this season, buddy and 764 00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:14,480 Speaker 1: try to. So what do you think you think Walker 765 00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:22,160 Speaker 1: a little is is a Day one or Day two pick? Oh? 766 00:48:22,440 --> 00:48:25,120 Speaker 1: See that and that? And that's the thing is is 767 00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:27,880 Speaker 1: that you don't know at this point point in time. 768 00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:30,799 Speaker 1: Like I think that he was such a high recruit 769 00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:34,279 Speaker 1: that there was a lot of buzz surrounding him. But 770 00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:38,680 Speaker 1: what he did He missed last last season? Right, Yes, 771 00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:42,040 Speaker 1: I think he missed either yeah, most of last season. Yeah, 772 00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:44,160 Speaker 1: so he doesn't he doesn't have a lot of films, 773 00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:46,960 Speaker 1: so I don't even know how to evaluate him. For 774 00:48:47,160 --> 00:48:50,360 Speaker 1: the NFL, Like, how do you do that? So I 775 00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:53,960 Speaker 1: think that he's taking a very I don't know if 776 00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:56,319 Speaker 1: it's calculated because I don't know how you can calculate it, 777 00:48:56,360 --> 00:49:01,560 Speaker 1: but he's taking a risk, that's true. I mean, yeah, 778 00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:06,880 Speaker 1: I'm I'm, I do wonder why, um, that couldn't have 779 00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:12,360 Speaker 1: waited until November or something like that. Um. But I 780 00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:16,160 Speaker 1: mean there's also not that many sure fire NFL draft 781 00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:18,560 Speaker 1: picks in the Pact twelve. I think a lot of 782 00:49:18,560 --> 00:49:22,279 Speaker 1: people need to needed to prove themselves. And I think 783 00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:26,319 Speaker 1: the guys that have declared so far are ones who 784 00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:28,600 Speaker 1: we wondered whether or not they were even gonna come back. 785 00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:32,600 Speaker 1: So and and you know, pene Seul would have gone 786 00:49:32,600 --> 00:49:36,400 Speaker 1: pro if he had the ability. So UM, you know 787 00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:40,080 Speaker 1: that that part of it is is understandable. What's going 788 00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:42,080 Speaker 1: to be interesting is if we start to get some 789 00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:46,320 Speaker 1: people who you know, would maybe have been undrafted, betting 790 00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:49,640 Speaker 1: on themselves to go work out. You know that that 791 00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:52,880 Speaker 1: will be the real interesting thing is if there's guys 792 00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:57,760 Speaker 1: out there like Arizona States, Merlin Robertson or something like that, um, 793 00:49:57,840 --> 00:50:00,480 Speaker 1: who would have a ton left to prove. But you know, 794 00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:02,840 Speaker 1: but he's got a couple of kids, and he said, 795 00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:05,800 Speaker 1: you know, it's the NFL life for me or nothing. 796 00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:08,399 Speaker 1: You know that that that's when it will get really 797 00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:11,920 Speaker 1: interesting for me, because you know, you're also worried about 798 00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:15,920 Speaker 1: putting your lack of film up against other conferences, you know, 799 00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:21,120 Speaker 1: kids who who do have junior film, and that that 800 00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:25,480 Speaker 1: that could cost you a lot. But then again, some 801 00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:28,080 Speaker 1: people better themselves and we end up being wrong. I mean, 802 00:50:28,120 --> 00:50:30,480 Speaker 1: did you see uh do you see J. J. Taylor 803 00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:32,840 Speaker 1: get a bunch of reps for the Patriots this last weekend? 804 00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:38,200 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean that he made the right decision, dude. 805 00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:44,799 Speaker 1: He no, No, dude, Like, when you go undrafted, you 806 00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:48,760 Speaker 1: miss out on so much money and so much opportunity. 807 00:50:49,080 --> 00:50:55,120 Speaker 1: Would he have been drafted though he's like five ft six? Who? Who? 808 00:50:55,120 --> 00:51:00,239 Speaker 1: Who knows a better season in Arizona? Yeah? Maybe? I 809 00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:03,400 Speaker 1: mean and and and just this little bit of success 810 00:51:03,520 --> 00:51:06,319 Speaker 1: does not mean that he's gonna get a lot more 811 00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:11,640 Speaker 1: success because when you are drafted higher, you get more opportunities. 812 00:51:12,080 --> 00:51:15,680 Speaker 1: That means that the team has something invested in you. 813 00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:21,160 Speaker 1: They will find ways to make roles for you. Like 814 00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:25,399 Speaker 1: that's the difference is that is that the teams will 815 00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:28,919 Speaker 1: do so much more to try to make it work. See, 816 00:51:28,920 --> 00:51:30,400 Speaker 1: I don't know. And then, but there's part of me 817 00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:32,640 Speaker 1: that thinks, if Bill Belichick can find a way to 818 00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:36,839 Speaker 1: use you on the football field, whether you're drafted or not. 819 00:51:37,320 --> 00:51:40,040 Speaker 1: Because this was J. J. Taylor made at the seventeenth 820 00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:42,000 Speaker 1: straight year that they opened up the season with a 821 00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:44,960 Speaker 1: U D S A on the active roster, which is 822 00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:47,880 Speaker 1: wild to think about. But some of those guys that 823 00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:50,800 Speaker 1: he's done that with have gone on to have NFL 824 00:51:50,880 --> 00:51:55,480 Speaker 1: careers elsewhere, whether it's Danny woodhead Um, who was another 825 00:51:55,800 --> 00:51:59,920 Speaker 1: you know, very diminutive, do everything back. D J. Foster 826 00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:03,080 Speaker 1: was another one out of Arizona State who is going 827 00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:06,399 Speaker 1: on his fourth year in in the NFL. I think 828 00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:09,279 Speaker 1: he's on the Arizona Cardinals active roster right now. And 829 00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:10,839 Speaker 1: it's because you get in there, you get a little 830 00:52:10,920 --> 00:52:13,560 Speaker 1: NFL film, you prove you can do it against NFL competition. 831 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:15,680 Speaker 1: You might be able to turn that into a decent 832 00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:19,239 Speaker 1: little free agent contract and choose where you go. And 833 00:52:19,280 --> 00:52:21,960 Speaker 1: so you know, obviously it's the exception to the rule. 834 00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:24,600 Speaker 1: It's that shouldn't be your plan. But I don't know 835 00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:27,920 Speaker 1: if J. J. Taylor would have been drafted regardless. You know, 836 00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:30,719 Speaker 1: if you're talking about guys like you know, Benjamin going 837 00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:34,080 Speaker 1: in round six, Josh Kelly going in round five, do 838 00:52:34,080 --> 00:52:35,879 Speaker 1: you really think J. J. Taylor would have been picked 839 00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:38,400 Speaker 1: if he spent one more year in Arizona with that 840 00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:40,439 Speaker 1: depleted offensive line, and then you might not have even 841 00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:42,960 Speaker 1: had a season at all. So you know, he he 842 00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:46,040 Speaker 1: could have been just sort of lost to history. So 843 00:52:46,080 --> 00:52:48,920 Speaker 1: sometimes I think if you, if you really know, and 844 00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:51,320 Speaker 1: you go out there and you bet on yourself, that's 845 00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:55,400 Speaker 1: that's the right thing to do. Yeah, I mean I 846 00:52:55,640 --> 00:52:58,399 Speaker 1: bet on myself and came out early, So I can't 847 00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:01,839 Speaker 1: begrudge in anybody else from doing it. I just know 848 00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:06,799 Speaker 1: that it makes it a lot harder on yourself. Um. 849 00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:11,840 Speaker 1: The the school down the road from Oregon in Eugene, 850 00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:16,720 Speaker 1: though Oregon State, they have said that that their fans 851 00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:19,719 Speaker 1: have said that they do not want to refund on 852 00:53:19,840 --> 00:53:25,799 Speaker 1: season tickets. Um, if you had season tickets to Arizona State, 853 00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:30,640 Speaker 1: Ralph or Arizona, you know if for the Arizona Amsdon's 854 00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:34,799 Speaker 1: would you uh, would you be requesting a refund for 855 00:53:34,920 --> 00:53:37,560 Speaker 1: your tickets or would you let the school keep it? 856 00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:42,239 Speaker 1: Ah Man, this economy. That's why this story stood out 857 00:53:42,239 --> 00:53:44,600 Speaker 1: to me. You know, we're talking about a story, UM 858 00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:49,560 Speaker 1: that that I had sent you over Twitter, where a 859 00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:54,160 Speaker 1: huge bulk of the Oregon State fan base UM have 860 00:53:54,360 --> 00:54:01,000 Speaker 1: decided that football season to get holders are telling the 861 00:54:01,040 --> 00:54:04,359 Speaker 1: schools keep the money. So I and I don't think 862 00:54:04,440 --> 00:54:11,399 Speaker 1: that's even um that that doesn't necessarily mean that they're 863 00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:15,880 Speaker 1: straight donations. I think only thirty of that is a 864 00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:20,200 Speaker 1: donation to the school. So that means thirty percent of 865 00:54:20,239 --> 00:54:23,680 Speaker 1: season ticket holders are eating the cost of the season 866 00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:30,440 Speaker 1: tickets assuming there's no season, and the other sixty are 867 00:54:30,480 --> 00:54:34,040 Speaker 1: asking that it being moved towards a deposit toward next 868 00:54:34,120 --> 00:54:37,600 Speaker 1: year's tickets. So I I could see being in a 869 00:54:37,600 --> 00:54:42,279 Speaker 1: position where I asked to shift my deposit, but in 870 00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:45,160 Speaker 1: in this economy, dude, I I don't know. I don't 871 00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:46,879 Speaker 1: know if I could say, hey, yeah, I just keep 872 00:54:46,920 --> 00:54:50,759 Speaker 1: my money. Yeah, bro, I'm not. I'm not saying that, 873 00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:53,360 Speaker 1: especially when they mismanaged the money to be in this 874 00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:57,640 Speaker 1: situation to begin with. As much as I love schools, 875 00:54:58,239 --> 00:55:00,879 Speaker 1: you know, we all have the schools that we cheer 876 00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:04,960 Speaker 1: cheer four and they could not have expected something so 877 00:55:05,040 --> 00:55:08,319 Speaker 1: severe that the season would get canceled or pushed back 878 00:55:08,440 --> 00:55:13,600 Speaker 1: or anything like that. I still believe that it's been 879 00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:18,640 Speaker 1: a mismanagement of funds to protect amateurism. That they're like 880 00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:21,160 Speaker 1: that they want to cry poor, always spend every dollar 881 00:55:22,320 --> 00:55:26,239 Speaker 1: and when especially the bulk of their money that they're 882 00:55:26,280 --> 00:55:29,000 Speaker 1: spending or that they're that they say they're saving is 883 00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:32,560 Speaker 1: for scholarships, where they're like, oh, we have to pay 884 00:55:32,600 --> 00:55:34,960 Speaker 1: the school for our scholarships. And I know that it is, 885 00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:36,799 Speaker 1: but it's a zero sum game, you know what I mean, 886 00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:41,360 Speaker 1: Like where the athletic department then writes to school a 887 00:55:41,480 --> 00:55:46,440 Speaker 1: full tuition check out of state tuition check for a 888 00:55:46,600 --> 00:55:50,080 Speaker 1: kid coming like that. That's just wild to me, but 889 00:55:51,480 --> 00:55:55,040 Speaker 1: is what it is. So yeah, so uh, they would 890 00:55:55,040 --> 00:55:58,480 Speaker 1: not be keeping my money if if I wanted to 891 00:55:58,520 --> 00:56:01,680 Speaker 1: make a donation that the separate thing. But keeping my 892 00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:05,520 Speaker 1: money for for season tickets and I don't get some 893 00:56:05,719 --> 00:56:08,840 Speaker 1: benefit from it. That's a note for me, buddy. I 894 00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:12,120 Speaker 1: mean I could see, I could see so like, you know, 895 00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:14,920 Speaker 1: let's say it was the University of Wyoming, you know, 896 00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:17,640 Speaker 1: and I root for them, and and Craig Bowl, their 897 00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:19,879 Speaker 1: head coach, has done some pretty incredible things. They got 898 00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:22,759 Speaker 1: thirteen guys in the NFL, right now, that's more than 899 00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:25,719 Speaker 1: you have. A that's more than a s U, I think, so, 900 00:56:25,840 --> 00:56:29,800 Speaker 1: like in its University of Wyoming, And so I could see, 901 00:56:30,600 --> 00:56:33,920 Speaker 1: I could see maybe if it's a school that I 902 00:56:34,040 --> 00:56:37,640 Speaker 1: root for that I don't owe money to, but like 903 00:56:37,719 --> 00:56:39,600 Speaker 1: I still owe a bunch of money for my Liberal 904 00:56:39,680 --> 00:56:41,799 Speaker 1: Arts degree from Arizona State. And if they asked to 905 00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:44,760 Speaker 1: keep my money, I'd say, all right, well how about 906 00:56:45,160 --> 00:56:48,320 Speaker 1: I get a refund on some of my my students 907 00:56:51,040 --> 00:56:53,839 Speaker 1: right right? Like you know, I'm I'm I'm gonna need 908 00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:55,919 Speaker 1: some of that depth for giving us up off you there. 909 00:56:56,760 --> 00:56:58,920 Speaker 1: You know, I understand that you're in a pinch, but 910 00:56:59,120 --> 00:57:02,319 Speaker 1: uh you know, yeah, you know we we we all 911 00:57:02,360 --> 00:57:05,399 Speaker 1: have needs, you know what I mean? Right, how about 912 00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:08,160 Speaker 1: how about we cancel a few months of interest payments 913 00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:12,160 Speaker 1: on these loans and y'all can keep my season ticket money. 914 00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:16,000 Speaker 1: See see that's what I'm talking about, dude, See, because 915 00:57:16,040 --> 00:57:20,920 Speaker 1: because they've already recouped way more than than they loaned out. 916 00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:24,520 Speaker 1: So yeah, I would be in full favor of that 917 00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:32,440 Speaker 1: as well. Um. Now, all onto recruiting though, because recruiting 918 00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:37,680 Speaker 1: is a big deal and I have wondered how recruiting 919 00:57:37,800 --> 00:57:43,120 Speaker 1: was going to play out as the pandemic and the 920 00:57:43,280 --> 00:57:50,280 Speaker 1: season have been um unfolding. If Pack twelve teams could 921 00:57:50,360 --> 00:57:54,680 Speaker 1: start to see decommits, would they still be getting commits? 922 00:57:55,200 --> 00:57:57,760 Speaker 1: How all of this would work? How has it shaped 923 00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:02,040 Speaker 1: been chaking out Ralph? And then well, first of all, 924 00:58:02,320 --> 00:58:04,920 Speaker 1: we haven't had a chance to talk about this, but 925 00:58:05,200 --> 00:58:09,240 Speaker 1: how is you talking to recruit Yeah, they furloughed the 926 00:58:09,320 --> 00:58:13,760 Speaker 1: coaching staff, Like I don't understand, Like that's to me, 927 00:58:13,880 --> 00:58:21,200 Speaker 1: that seems like you just gave up. Yeah, furlowing everybody 928 00:58:21,280 --> 00:58:23,920 Speaker 1: is wild. Like how are recruits even gonna be able 929 00:58:23,960 --> 00:58:29,840 Speaker 1: to get their questions answered? I mean because you're furloughed, 930 00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:34,480 Speaker 1: So are you allowed to work in recruiting capacity? You 931 00:58:34,560 --> 00:58:38,800 Speaker 1: shouldn't be, Yeah, because you're not getting paid to do it. 932 00:58:39,320 --> 00:58:45,920 Speaker 1: And right now Utah has nine commits. Nine there Any 933 00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:47,800 Speaker 1: other year at this point in the year would be 934 00:58:47,800 --> 00:58:52,600 Speaker 1: really good. Yeah, but this year it's terrible. Yeah. But 935 00:58:52,680 --> 00:58:59,440 Speaker 1: when everybody around them has I mean, uh, Stanford is up, 936 00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:02,280 Speaker 1: they've gotten a few more, they're up to eleven. But 937 00:59:02,320 --> 00:59:05,040 Speaker 1: when you're talking about power of five schools, only schools 938 00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:12,120 Speaker 1: even reasonably near them are like Vanderbilt. Uh, Colorado is 939 00:59:12,160 --> 00:59:15,640 Speaker 1: way better. I mean they're behind U n L V 940 00:59:16,600 --> 00:59:21,439 Speaker 1: uh U c F. I'm sorry, Uh, University of Central 941 00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:25,480 Speaker 1: Florida and University of South Florida. I mean then you're 942 00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:28,600 Speaker 1: already up to Illinois, Old Miss, who are way better, 943 00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:38,240 Speaker 1: Appalachian State, Florida, Atlantic, Cincinnati, come up, Memphis, Kansas, Boston College, 944 00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:42,760 Speaker 1: Georgia Tech, and Rutgers. Rutgers is in the thirties, Like, 945 00:59:42,840 --> 00:59:48,720 Speaker 1: come on, man, what what are we doing here? Like? 946 00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:52,520 Speaker 1: How do you like? How do this is? Why? Utah 947 00:59:52,560 --> 00:59:56,600 Speaker 1: fans And I know you guys listen, So I don't 948 00:59:56,600 --> 00:59:58,440 Speaker 1: want you to take this as a negative, because you 949 00:59:58,600 --> 01:00:05,160 Speaker 1: fans are absolutely terrific. However, the idea that you think 950 01:00:05,200 --> 01:00:08,680 Speaker 1: that you're gonna take a bunch of three star athletes 951 01:00:08,720 --> 01:00:11,160 Speaker 1: and go win the Pack twelve or compete for a 952 01:00:11,240 --> 01:00:17,400 Speaker 1: national championship is absolutely craziness. Last year was craziness. Like 953 01:00:17,600 --> 01:00:19,840 Speaker 1: the idea that they thought that they were gonna go 954 01:00:19,960 --> 01:00:23,440 Speaker 1: beat Oregon, maybe would win the Pack two, maybe go 955 01:00:23,480 --> 01:00:26,560 Speaker 1: to the College Football playoffs and have a shot. You 956 01:00:26,600 --> 01:00:29,680 Speaker 1: don't have that. It takes a certain level of athletes 957 01:00:29,760 --> 01:00:33,720 Speaker 1: to be able to compete on that level. And they 958 01:00:33,760 --> 01:00:36,000 Speaker 1: saw it at the quarterback position because I said it 959 01:00:36,080 --> 01:00:39,040 Speaker 1: all year, I said, Tyler Huntley is gonna have to 960 01:00:39,080 --> 01:00:46,280 Speaker 1: be great at least two games that during the season too, 961 01:00:46,720 --> 01:00:49,160 Speaker 1: to a save the season, to have a perfect season, 962 01:00:49,240 --> 01:00:52,040 Speaker 1: anything like that. He's gonna have to be great in 963 01:00:52,160 --> 01:00:55,280 Speaker 1: two games, and he's and he wasn't a good enough 964 01:00:55,320 --> 01:00:58,280 Speaker 1: of a quarterback in terms of a passer and in 965 01:00:58,480 --> 01:01:01,760 Speaker 1: must pass situation because if you stop Utah from running 966 01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:08,360 Speaker 1: the ball, he can't beat you. And it proved it well. 967 01:01:08,480 --> 01:01:11,200 Speaker 1: So I don't know how they really expect to win 968 01:01:12,240 --> 01:01:15,840 Speaker 1: at a high level because as good as like, imagine 969 01:01:15,880 --> 01:01:19,760 Speaker 1: if you took witty Ham and put him at USC, 970 01:01:20,120 --> 01:01:25,240 Speaker 1: what do you think what would happen? Ah, that's tough 971 01:01:25,400 --> 01:01:27,160 Speaker 1: because I mean you put him at USC with the 972 01:01:27,200 --> 01:01:30,720 Speaker 1: current staff they have no no I'm talking about if 973 01:01:30,720 --> 01:01:34,720 Speaker 1: you take Utah's full staff put them at USC. With 974 01:01:34,800 --> 01:01:37,560 Speaker 1: the talent at USC, do you think USC would win 975 01:01:37,600 --> 01:01:39,800 Speaker 1: more football games? I don't know if if he can 976 01:01:40,240 --> 01:01:43,760 Speaker 1: recruit to USC, but it recruits itself on some level. 977 01:01:43,880 --> 01:01:48,240 Speaker 1: But do you think they give it three years? And 978 01:01:48,360 --> 01:01:51,160 Speaker 1: after Morgan scally probably gets beat up in the parking 979 01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:56,160 Speaker 1: lot once or twice. They will be perennial Patrol South champions. 980 01:01:57,360 --> 01:02:03,560 Speaker 1: He's just too good at development. You would change um Like, 981 01:02:03,560 --> 01:02:06,440 Speaker 1: like you said, the school kind of recruits itself, so 982 01:02:08,400 --> 01:02:10,960 Speaker 1: I don't know, it's a different level of kids. I 983 01:02:11,080 --> 01:02:13,640 Speaker 1: think that he could do what he does at Utah 984 01:02:13,840 --> 01:02:18,800 Speaker 1: at USC and still win, just because the natural athlete 985 01:02:18,840 --> 01:02:21,240 Speaker 1: that's going to commit to the school over the staff 986 01:02:21,840 --> 01:02:27,080 Speaker 1: is going to be better than the one that commits 987 01:02:27,120 --> 01:02:33,280 Speaker 1: to Utah. So it's it's unavoidable. He'll be working with 988 01:02:33,400 --> 01:02:39,480 Speaker 1: better athletes regardless. In my opinion, that makes sense. That 989 01:02:39,560 --> 01:02:43,160 Speaker 1: makes sense even if he was a worse recruiter than 990 01:02:43,720 --> 01:02:50,160 Speaker 1: Dante than pre Dante Williams USC, I think they would 991 01:02:50,160 --> 01:02:55,160 Speaker 1: still be better off. Yeah, I mean, all right, so 992 01:02:55,480 --> 01:03:00,600 Speaker 1: let's let's look for a second at USC rooting. How 993 01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:06,480 Speaker 1: much better is it really? Okay? Because they have Miller 994 01:03:06,560 --> 01:03:12,960 Speaker 1: mass and Jake Garcia, right, Yes, Miller Moss is supposed 995 01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:16,920 Speaker 1: to check in in the wintertime. Jake Garcia is probably 996 01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:21,480 Speaker 1: checking out of there. It's possible. I mean that that 997 01:03:21,600 --> 01:03:24,120 Speaker 1: rumors have been there forever. But if he hasn't done 998 01:03:24,160 --> 01:03:28,320 Speaker 1: it yet, Yeah, but he's playing this season. He's down 999 01:03:28,360 --> 01:03:32,360 Speaker 1: in Georgia. He may go to my Miami. I mean, 1000 01:03:33,440 --> 01:03:39,919 Speaker 1: but but also if you have two high four star quarterbacks, 1001 01:03:40,800 --> 01:03:43,520 Speaker 1: you really only have one, Like, it doesn't do you 1002 01:03:43,560 --> 01:03:46,440 Speaker 1: any good to recruit two, do you know what I'm saying? 1003 01:03:47,080 --> 01:03:50,520 Speaker 1: Maybe I don't know. Injuries you never know. Yeah, but 1004 01:03:50,560 --> 01:03:54,440 Speaker 1: they both can't play. That is the point is is 1005 01:03:54,480 --> 01:03:58,120 Speaker 1: that those two cancel each other out right, would you? 1006 01:03:58,640 --> 01:04:00,240 Speaker 1: But it might not matter because they can get a 1007 01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:03,880 Speaker 1: quarterback in the class of that is better than both 1008 01:04:03,920 --> 01:04:08,640 Speaker 1: of them. So and definitely depends. And Jake Garcia to 1009 01:04:08,680 --> 01:04:11,360 Speaker 1: me is a deep ball guy and Miller Moss is 1010 01:04:11,400 --> 01:04:13,320 Speaker 1: a dink and dunk guy. So there are two very 1011 01:04:13,360 --> 01:04:16,920 Speaker 1: different styles of quarterback. And so I think a lot 1012 01:04:16,960 --> 01:04:19,360 Speaker 1: of it's gonna matter is, you know what, what kind 1013 01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:23,480 Speaker 1: of offense are you running when both these guys get 1014 01:04:23,520 --> 01:04:27,480 Speaker 1: on campus, Because if they end up losing Graham Harrold 1015 01:04:27,960 --> 01:04:29,800 Speaker 1: and they go back to more of a pro style 1016 01:04:29,920 --> 01:04:35,480 Speaker 1: than that probably fits um in my opinion, that probably 1017 01:04:35,840 --> 01:04:38,360 Speaker 1: fits Jake Garcia a little bit better if they stick 1018 01:04:38,400 --> 01:04:40,920 Speaker 1: with what they have now, you know they want to 1019 01:04:40,920 --> 01:04:43,520 Speaker 1: throw fifty times a game. Miller Moss is probably the 1020 01:04:43,560 --> 01:04:46,680 Speaker 1: guy that you're you're gonna want to go with, but 1021 01:04:46,720 --> 01:04:50,200 Speaker 1: I think it's better. I mean, just in this class alone, 1022 01:04:50,240 --> 01:04:56,760 Speaker 1: if we're going by Rivals rankings, they have five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, 1023 01:04:57,480 --> 01:05:02,880 Speaker 1: fourteen four stars in the class of So you want 1024 01:05:02,880 --> 01:05:07,439 Speaker 1: to compare that to last year, Well, well I too, 1025 01:05:08,360 --> 01:05:14,200 Speaker 1: I get that, but it's still USC. And so let's 1026 01:05:14,240 --> 01:05:18,520 Speaker 1: just play you know, like the reading the tea leaves 1027 01:05:18,560 --> 01:05:24,160 Speaker 1: from what's outside. You've had Jake Jake Garcia, who is 1028 01:05:24,200 --> 01:05:28,480 Speaker 1: a who there is a chance he could d commit. 1029 01:05:29,160 --> 01:05:36,080 Speaker 1: They there's the kid gayote Ote who transferred to Vegas, 1030 01:05:36,160 --> 01:05:41,360 Speaker 1: right I think maybe maybe um, yeah, but he might have. 1031 01:05:41,400 --> 01:05:46,640 Speaker 1: And then Saiah uh Mapa Kai Tolo just moved to Mesa, 1032 01:05:46,680 --> 01:05:50,440 Speaker 1: Arizona so that he could have a senior season. Yeah, 1033 01:05:50,560 --> 01:05:56,720 Speaker 1: And and they think that Gayoteote he may not qualify 1034 01:05:57,160 --> 01:05:59,600 Speaker 1: or may end up having to decommit or something like that. 1035 01:06:00,320 --> 01:06:04,160 Speaker 1: So you're looking at and um, because I read all 1036 01:06:04,160 --> 01:06:09,000 Speaker 1: the the the sites and this is coming from the 1037 01:06:09,120 --> 01:06:13,960 Speaker 1: USC sites as well, that they believe that the kid um, 1038 01:06:14,080 --> 01:06:18,640 Speaker 1: that the kid Quadra Davis from Texas, he may d 1039 01:06:18,800 --> 01:06:21,919 Speaker 1: coommit as well at some point in time. So it's 1040 01:06:21,960 --> 01:06:26,320 Speaker 1: like if those three chips fall. That's three. That's three 1041 01:06:26,360 --> 01:06:32,400 Speaker 1: of your that's three of your top five commits. Yeah, 1042 01:06:32,480 --> 01:06:34,360 Speaker 1: but I mean then you're still looking at eleven and 1043 01:06:34,440 --> 01:06:38,760 Speaker 1: then verses to and and they don't have any office alignement. 1044 01:06:39,800 --> 01:06:44,640 Speaker 1: They got they got uh Mason Murphy, Yeah, and Maximus 1045 01:06:44,720 --> 01:06:47,760 Speaker 1: get Maximus Gibbs is big dude. So they got a couple. 1046 01:06:47,840 --> 01:06:49,800 Speaker 1: But they got six in last year's class, so they 1047 01:06:49,800 --> 01:06:53,000 Speaker 1: don't need to go crazy. They were all I'm talking 1048 01:06:53,000 --> 01:06:55,880 Speaker 1: about highly rated. Yeah, I understand there's not a lot 1049 01:06:55,880 --> 01:06:58,240 Speaker 1: of highly rated offensive linemen on the West Coast, though. 1050 01:06:58,640 --> 01:07:02,520 Speaker 1: They're the one that again just pulled is up there. Though. 1051 01:07:03,480 --> 01:07:05,560 Speaker 1: I mean, how crazy is it that you get to 1052 01:07:05,680 --> 01:07:09,720 Speaker 1: replace pinas Soul who according to rivals and I don't 1053 01:07:09,760 --> 01:07:11,840 Speaker 1: know why we did this, but we dropped him fourteen 1054 01:07:11,880 --> 01:07:16,840 Speaker 1: spots in our final rankings. Yeah, Pail was the number 1055 01:07:16,880 --> 01:07:20,720 Speaker 1: sixty overall player in the country coming out of high 1056 01:07:20,720 --> 01:07:27,160 Speaker 1: school according to two probably. I mean, but but even 1057 01:07:27,240 --> 01:07:29,160 Speaker 1: I had some doubts about him because he was playing 1058 01:07:29,160 --> 01:07:33,800 Speaker 1: in St. George, Utah against just absolute I mean, the 1059 01:07:33,840 --> 01:07:37,080 Speaker 1: biggest defensive end he probably well, he was playing at St. 1060 01:07:37,480 --> 01:07:40,080 Speaker 1: George up into St. George. I like that place. It's nice, 1061 01:07:40,120 --> 01:07:44,080 Speaker 1: but yeah, but i'd probably the defensive end that put 1062 01:07:44,200 --> 01:07:46,800 Speaker 1: had the most weight that on that he had to 1063 01:07:46,800 --> 01:07:49,280 Speaker 1: face all years, probably one nine. So he was doing 1064 01:07:49,320 --> 01:07:51,280 Speaker 1: stuff in his film like he was picking up guys 1065 01:07:51,360 --> 01:07:54,920 Speaker 1: and straight throwing him to the moon. And and I 1066 01:07:54,960 --> 01:07:57,160 Speaker 1: remember watching that film and being like, whoa, this is 1067 01:07:57,200 --> 01:08:00,280 Speaker 1: gonna be a rude awakening for pinais Seul because it's 1068 01:08:00,320 --> 01:08:02,120 Speaker 1: not like You're not gonna be able to do that. 1069 01:08:02,240 --> 01:08:05,280 Speaker 1: And then you know, of course, no, that's exactly what 1070 01:08:05,320 --> 01:08:09,160 Speaker 1: you should be. You should be dominating lesser competition. And 1071 01:08:09,160 --> 01:08:12,840 Speaker 1: so for some reason I took it as you know, 1072 01:08:13,400 --> 01:08:17,320 Speaker 1: once everything levels up, he might struggle, and that wasn't 1073 01:08:17,320 --> 01:08:19,479 Speaker 1: the case at all. Obviously, he's probably the best offensive 1074 01:08:19,520 --> 01:08:23,000 Speaker 1: lineman I've ever had a chance to watch UM in 1075 01:08:23,040 --> 01:08:25,200 Speaker 1: my at least in the last nine years of covering 1076 01:08:25,960 --> 01:08:29,760 Speaker 1: UM football in the in in the you know, Western 1077 01:08:30,040 --> 01:08:32,800 Speaker 1: United States, and so you know, but they get to 1078 01:08:32,840 --> 01:08:37,960 Speaker 1: replace him, they get to replace him with another offensive 1079 01:08:38,000 --> 01:08:45,200 Speaker 1: lineman from Utah, from orahm Utah six ft five uh. 1080 01:08:45,240 --> 01:08:48,080 Speaker 1: And that was one of two commits that they've got 1081 01:08:48,120 --> 01:08:52,040 Speaker 1: in the last couple of weeks. They got Jabril McNeil 1082 01:08:52,200 --> 01:08:56,479 Speaker 1: from Raleigh, North Carolina, which UM prompted a pretty funny 1083 01:08:56,479 --> 01:08:59,400 Speaker 1: tweet from an Oregon staff are saying, you know who 1084 01:08:59,439 --> 01:09:02,559 Speaker 1: said we could go out east to recruit And I 1085 01:09:02,600 --> 01:09:05,759 Speaker 1: was thinking to myself like, literally everything is east of Eugene, 1086 01:09:05,800 --> 01:09:10,760 Speaker 1: but okay, and then you of course have to be 1087 01:09:10,800 --> 01:09:15,599 Speaker 1: that guy contrary and yeah, Kingsley Sua Mattaya or um 1088 01:09:15,680 --> 01:09:19,879 Speaker 1: Utah six pounds and he we have him at Rivals 1089 01:09:20,240 --> 01:09:22,759 Speaker 1: as the number sixty three overall player in the country. 1090 01:09:22,840 --> 01:09:25,720 Speaker 1: So some parallels to him and Pine sul even though 1091 01:09:25,800 --> 01:09:30,160 Speaker 1: he's about eighty pounds lighter and sw us coming out 1092 01:09:30,200 --> 01:09:31,760 Speaker 1: of high school. But Seill cut a lot of weight, 1093 01:09:31,800 --> 01:09:35,320 Speaker 1: I think, UM. But so yeah, that was that was 1094 01:09:35,439 --> 01:09:43,640 Speaker 1: really big UM. Arizona State has had some success recently recruiting, 1095 01:09:44,000 --> 01:09:48,519 Speaker 1: especially wide receivers, and and they've continued their national approach. 1096 01:09:48,560 --> 01:09:52,519 Speaker 1: They landed somebody on September eleven named Dominic Lovett out 1097 01:09:52,520 --> 01:09:55,960 Speaker 1: of East St. Louis, Illinois. He's a four star wide 1098 01:09:55,960 --> 01:09:59,920 Speaker 1: receiver UM, and that means that they now have play 1099 01:10:00,080 --> 01:10:08,000 Speaker 1: is out of Illinois, Texas, California, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Louisiana, Washington, Virginia, 1100 01:10:08,280 --> 01:10:13,840 Speaker 1: and Florida and Michigan. So Arizona State has gone full 1101 01:10:14,520 --> 01:10:19,400 Speaker 1: big ten with their with their recruiting, and everybody else 1102 01:10:19,439 --> 01:10:23,120 Speaker 1: has been kind of relatively quiet. I mean, I think 1103 01:10:23,720 --> 01:10:28,000 Speaker 1: Washington has had some success, but UM Cal had a 1104 01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:31,120 Speaker 1: bunch of commits in the first two weeks of August. 1105 01:10:32,160 --> 01:10:35,400 Speaker 1: They had one on the thirty one of July and 1106 01:10:35,479 --> 01:10:39,240 Speaker 1: that was that rolled off five in two weeks streak 1107 01:10:40,040 --> 01:10:44,200 Speaker 1: for them, uh, four of which are all from California, 1108 01:10:44,240 --> 01:10:47,920 Speaker 1: once from Clackamus, Oregon, UM and so and then things 1109 01:10:47,960 --> 01:10:49,839 Speaker 1: have been kind of quiet for them. They have eighteen 1110 01:10:49,880 --> 01:10:56,120 Speaker 1: total commitments, and I think, you know, all everything seems 1111 01:10:56,160 --> 01:11:00,200 Speaker 1: to adversely affect Stanford UM. But I think that they're 1112 01:11:00,360 --> 01:11:02,559 Speaker 1: in an interesting situation right now where they only have 1113 01:11:02,600 --> 01:11:05,920 Speaker 1: ten total commits, and usually around this time that might 1114 01:11:05,960 --> 01:11:07,880 Speaker 1: be where they're at, but they usually have a couple 1115 01:11:07,920 --> 01:11:11,800 Speaker 1: of top fifty in the country on the hook and 1116 01:11:11,800 --> 01:11:13,720 Speaker 1: they don't have any of that. This year. They have 1117 01:11:14,560 --> 01:11:20,120 Speaker 1: nine three stars and a two star, so, I mean, 1118 01:11:20,479 --> 01:11:26,439 Speaker 1: probably the best commit that they have on board two scars, Gooby, 1119 01:11:26,880 --> 01:11:30,360 Speaker 1: I don't think. So it's a running back out of Clearwater, Florida, 1120 01:11:31,560 --> 01:11:36,280 Speaker 1: So I don't know, man, I think that. I think 1121 01:11:36,320 --> 01:11:39,080 Speaker 1: Stanford and Utah are are definitely in a little bit 1122 01:11:39,080 --> 01:11:40,880 Speaker 1: of trouble. It would be What would be interesting is 1123 01:11:40,920 --> 01:11:45,679 Speaker 1: if Utah landed a commit during their furlough, what would 1124 01:11:45,720 --> 01:11:50,120 Speaker 1: they because their last commit they got on August thirty 1125 01:11:50,120 --> 01:11:55,519 Speaker 1: one from Mason to Faga out of Hawaii, and so 1126 01:11:55,640 --> 01:11:57,840 Speaker 1: it would be really interesting to me to see if, like, 1127 01:11:57,920 --> 01:12:02,920 Speaker 1: would they all be able to tweet about it? Can 1128 01:12:03,000 --> 01:12:05,519 Speaker 1: they all tweet about it? Who? Who do if a 1129 01:12:05,600 --> 01:12:07,880 Speaker 1: three falls in the forest, there's nobody there to hear, 1130 01:12:07,920 --> 01:12:10,400 Speaker 1: it doesn't make a sound? Did it really sign his 1131 01:12:10,520 --> 01:12:13,240 Speaker 1: letter of intent? I mean, like, how can you actually 1132 01:12:13,240 --> 01:12:17,280 Speaker 1: do a good job of recruiting players? I mean, I 1133 01:12:17,320 --> 01:12:20,640 Speaker 1: don't know. I think that that furloughing your staff is 1134 01:12:20,680 --> 01:12:22,800 Speaker 1: probably the last thing that you want to do in 1135 01:12:22,920 --> 01:12:26,920 Speaker 1: your most important sport on campus. And then it's feels 1136 01:12:27,080 --> 01:12:30,519 Speaker 1: very Larry Scott like to like to like to like 1137 01:12:30,640 --> 01:12:34,160 Speaker 1: show see, look, all our sports are are equal, but 1138 01:12:34,280 --> 01:12:40,160 Speaker 1: they're not though they're not. Yeah, yeah, And I just 1139 01:12:40,280 --> 01:12:42,479 Speaker 1: I don't know. It's weird because everybody has so many 1140 01:12:42,520 --> 01:12:47,200 Speaker 1: commits right now, um that the classes could be close 1141 01:12:47,280 --> 01:12:52,080 Speaker 1: to complete. But with other teams elsewhere in the country 1142 01:12:52,120 --> 01:12:55,400 Speaker 1: playing you know, that might be a way to negatively 1143 01:12:55,439 --> 01:12:58,400 Speaker 1: recruit against the Pac twelve and lure some of these 1144 01:12:58,400 --> 01:13:02,040 Speaker 1: players away. So it'll that that'll be the really interesting 1145 01:13:02,080 --> 01:13:03,840 Speaker 1: thing to see is if, if, if the Pac twelve 1146 01:13:03,920 --> 01:13:06,719 Speaker 1: can hold on to all of their commits while they're 1147 01:13:06,720 --> 01:13:10,880 Speaker 1: not playing football. Yeah yeah, now, I definitely I think 1148 01:13:10,880 --> 01:13:15,000 Speaker 1: that that's gonna be very very interesting because teams are 1149 01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:21,320 Speaker 1: obviously gonna be trying to negatively recruit. But it hasn't 1150 01:13:21,360 --> 01:13:26,879 Speaker 1: affected I mean, it hasn't affected Arizona State, hasn't affected 1151 01:13:26,920 --> 01:13:29,720 Speaker 1: Oregon so far. It's just gonna be a matter if 1152 01:13:29,720 --> 01:13:32,080 Speaker 1: they can close them, you know what I mean, getting 1153 01:13:32,439 --> 01:13:37,040 Speaker 1: players to two signing day like that. That's gonna be 1154 01:13:37,080 --> 01:13:41,040 Speaker 1: the key the Pack twelve needs to just they need 1155 01:13:41,080 --> 01:13:44,479 Speaker 1: to be sending out these NFL highlights because Josh Kelly 1156 01:13:44,520 --> 01:13:48,439 Speaker 1: scored a touchdown in his first ever NFL game, Levisca 1157 01:13:48,520 --> 01:13:51,400 Speaker 1: Chenault went off in his first ever NFL game, and 1158 01:13:51,439 --> 01:13:55,840 Speaker 1: he's catching touchdown passes from Gardner Minshew from from Washington State, 1159 01:13:55,920 --> 01:13:59,320 Speaker 1: and so it's and then Zack moss Zack Mosscott in 1160 01:13:59,360 --> 01:14:04,600 Speaker 1: the end zone. Yeah, and uh, what's his name? We 1161 01:14:04,840 --> 01:14:09,200 Speaker 1: were talking about him earlier. Um ah, somebody else had 1162 01:14:09,560 --> 01:14:13,240 Speaker 1: a good game. Oh J Taylor, Yeah, j J Taylor 1163 01:14:13,240 --> 01:14:16,639 Speaker 1: had a good game. Nikkil Harry almost cost the almost 1164 01:14:19,920 --> 01:14:21,960 Speaker 1: but he only had twelve catches as a rookie. He 1165 01:14:22,040 --> 01:14:25,160 Speaker 1: I think he had five on Sunday. So he's back, 1166 01:14:25,240 --> 01:14:31,120 Speaker 1: which is nice. He's on pace for uh a good start. Yeah, 1167 01:14:31,120 --> 01:14:33,360 Speaker 1: And so I mean, well, if you I think five 1168 01:14:33,439 --> 01:14:36,519 Speaker 1: catches a game gets you to like ninety catches or 1169 01:14:36,520 --> 01:14:37,960 Speaker 1: something like that. So if he can keep this pace, 1170 01:14:38,040 --> 01:14:40,280 Speaker 1: so he might win Comeback Player of the Year. But 1171 01:14:40,320 --> 01:14:43,720 Speaker 1: like all these guys all that went to all these 1172 01:14:43,720 --> 01:14:46,760 Speaker 1: different schools that are now having NFL success, you know, 1173 01:14:46,760 --> 01:14:48,760 Speaker 1: whether it's Gardner Minshew, you know, we might not have 1174 01:14:48,800 --> 01:14:51,479 Speaker 1: been able to get Gardner Minshew drafted. But look, you know, 1175 01:14:51,680 --> 01:14:53,719 Speaker 1: Labisca Chenalt might not have gone in the first round 1176 01:14:53,760 --> 01:14:56,519 Speaker 1: like he probably should have according to his talent and 1177 01:14:56,560 --> 01:14:59,719 Speaker 1: not his injury history. But he's out there doing touchdown 1178 01:14:59,800 --> 01:15:02,519 Speaker 1: Dan says, where he's bowling for his teammates, which I 1179 01:15:02,640 --> 01:15:06,760 Speaker 1: absolutely love. Uh. You know, Josh Kelly probably being good 1180 01:15:06,840 --> 01:15:09,400 Speaker 1: enough to be the feature back in in l A 1181 01:15:09,720 --> 01:15:12,800 Speaker 1: where he played is wild and then Zack Moss fits 1182 01:15:12,800 --> 01:15:15,639 Speaker 1: in so well in Buffalo, he's already having success. He 1183 01:15:15,680 --> 01:15:17,800 Speaker 1: was a late round pick. Um. You know, you know 1184 01:15:17,920 --> 01:15:21,080 Speaker 1: Benjamin was Frank Gore. Dude. I thought he was Free 1185 01:15:21,200 --> 01:15:23,800 Speaker 1: Gore because they look like the same dude when they're 1186 01:15:23,920 --> 01:15:25,880 Speaker 1: when they're running. I had to remember that Frank Gore 1187 01:15:25,960 --> 01:15:28,800 Speaker 1: plays for a different team. Now, Frank Frank Gore, if 1188 01:15:28,800 --> 01:15:35,360 Speaker 1: you cut his feet off, he's it feels like. But yeah, so, 1189 01:15:35,439 --> 01:15:37,960 Speaker 1: but that does remind me. Um. The results of our 1190 01:15:38,040 --> 01:15:41,400 Speaker 1: poll about Pena sul uh did you know we had 1191 01:15:41,439 --> 01:15:44,360 Speaker 1: We only had fifty votes on the pole and zero 1192 01:15:44,600 --> 01:15:50,439 Speaker 1: percent said that he should go first overall. Well, that's 1193 01:15:50,479 --> 01:15:54,599 Speaker 1: because they know who Trevor Lawrence is. Yeah, so said 1194 01:15:54,600 --> 01:15:59,240 Speaker 1: second behind Lawrence said three to five, said six to ten, 1195 01:15:59,280 --> 01:16:03,080 Speaker 1: And I want to know who because that's that's not happening. 1196 01:16:03,200 --> 01:16:06,400 Speaker 1: He's not He's not making it all the way to six. No, no, 1197 01:16:06,720 --> 01:16:12,200 Speaker 1: uh yeah. The The only way is is if you know, like, 1198 01:16:12,200 --> 01:16:15,719 Speaker 1: like the furthest he probably falls is three, which would 1199 01:16:15,720 --> 01:16:20,080 Speaker 1: put Trevor Lawrence and then and then justin fields for 1200 01:16:20,120 --> 01:16:23,639 Speaker 1: a quarterback needy team, and then Penas like that's the 1201 01:16:23,720 --> 01:16:30,599 Speaker 1: furthest he falls his three totally, Um and oh So 1202 01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:34,160 Speaker 1: were there any other players, pectro players in the NFL 1203 01:16:34,280 --> 01:16:40,800 Speaker 1: that were notable that we that maybe we were surprised about. Well, um, 1204 01:16:40,880 --> 01:16:45,439 Speaker 1: you know Benjamin. What what's tough for Arizona State fans is, 1205 01:16:45,760 --> 01:16:53,320 Speaker 1: you know, Benjamin cost DJ Foster a roster spot. Uh. 1206 01:16:53,560 --> 01:16:58,120 Speaker 1: DJ Foster got bumped down to the practice squad And 1207 01:16:58,160 --> 01:17:00,479 Speaker 1: it's tough for people who live in areas and our 1208 01:17:00,520 --> 01:17:03,719 Speaker 1: Cardinals in Arizona State fans because either you know, Benjamin 1209 01:17:03,800 --> 01:17:08,040 Speaker 1: succeeding means DJ Foster doesn't, or vice versa. And then 1210 01:17:08,120 --> 01:17:11,200 Speaker 1: come game time, DJ Foster got elevated to the active 1211 01:17:11,280 --> 01:17:15,479 Speaker 1: roster and I think, you know, Benjamin was inactive but 1212 01:17:15,880 --> 01:17:21,920 Speaker 1: suited up, so that that whole situation is weird, um, 1213 01:17:21,920 --> 01:17:26,640 Speaker 1: but worth monitoring. Uh. And then I saw on the 1214 01:17:26,680 --> 01:17:29,200 Speaker 1: Patriots depth chart. I watched the Patriots game, but I 1215 01:17:29,200 --> 01:17:33,800 Speaker 1: didn't see that much of him on the field, but 1216 01:17:34,080 --> 01:17:38,519 Speaker 1: ASSISI I think his backup tight end for New England, 1217 01:17:38,560 --> 01:17:40,800 Speaker 1: So you have to figure that that means he's going 1218 01:17:40,840 --> 01:17:46,960 Speaker 1: to get um some play. Uh. Calein Blage, who the 1219 01:17:47,080 --> 01:17:50,360 Speaker 1: Dolphins attempted to trade to the Jets and he failed 1220 01:17:50,360 --> 01:17:53,240 Speaker 1: his physical Um, I think he ended up just getting 1221 01:17:53,320 --> 01:17:56,920 Speaker 1: let go by Miami and he got picked up by 1222 01:17:57,720 --> 01:18:00,799 Speaker 1: the Jets, so he's back. Uh. One of the coolest 1223 01:18:00,800 --> 01:18:05,479 Speaker 1: things that I saw on Sunday was Austin Jackson, former 1224 01:18:05,640 --> 01:18:10,760 Speaker 1: USC left tackle, won the starting job in Miami and 1225 01:18:10,840 --> 01:18:13,720 Speaker 1: he's blocking for Ryan Fitzpatrick, who I played against in 1226 01:18:13,800 --> 01:18:16,599 Speaker 1: high school when Austin Jackson was just one year old. 1227 01:18:17,800 --> 01:18:24,280 Speaker 1: That's wild, dude. Um. There's also uh, Pharaoh Brown, former 1228 01:18:24,640 --> 01:18:27,840 Speaker 1: tight end at Oregon, and I don't know this because 1229 01:18:27,840 --> 01:18:33,200 Speaker 1: I talked to him. He just signed with Houston's with 1230 01:18:33,320 --> 01:18:38,640 Speaker 1: the Houston Texans two yesterday. Yeah, yes, yesterday, he just 1231 01:18:38,680 --> 01:18:40,920 Speaker 1: signed with with them to be on their active roster 1232 01:18:41,840 --> 01:18:45,280 Speaker 1: and uh, because he was in Cleveland and he may 1233 01:18:45,479 --> 01:18:48,639 Speaker 1: actually have an opportunity to work into the starting uh 1234 01:18:48,920 --> 01:18:52,000 Speaker 1: the lineup in in a tight end. Like he's a 1235 01:18:52,000 --> 01:18:54,640 Speaker 1: guy who I definitely think has the ability to be 1236 01:18:54,680 --> 01:18:57,519 Speaker 1: a starter in the in the NFL. But you know, 1237 01:18:58,240 --> 01:19:02,200 Speaker 1: but opportunity thing I was talking about earlier, Opportunity is 1238 01:19:02,200 --> 01:19:06,240 Speaker 1: not always the same when you don't when you go 1239 01:19:06,360 --> 01:19:09,519 Speaker 1: to certain places and coaches that get too caught up 1240 01:19:09,520 --> 01:19:12,280 Speaker 1: on money or your draft status and they don't always 1241 01:19:12,320 --> 01:19:16,519 Speaker 1: pay attention to you know, like the best player, or 1242 01:19:16,720 --> 01:19:21,160 Speaker 1: give you a fair opportunity. You know who's still plugging 1243 01:19:21,160 --> 01:19:25,400 Speaker 1: along is Mercedes Lewis. He's a number one tight end 1244 01:19:25,439 --> 01:19:29,400 Speaker 1: for for Green Bay. What I'm expecting him to have 1245 01:19:30,080 --> 01:19:33,639 Speaker 1: a pretty big year. Uh yeah, he's he He like you, 1246 01:19:33,800 --> 01:19:37,200 Speaker 1: from from the pack to Jacksonville and has now is 1247 01:19:37,240 --> 01:19:41,200 Speaker 1: now making his way with the packers. My what what 1248 01:19:41,360 --> 01:19:50,639 Speaker 1: did the baby's mother say? Uh? Nothing because she's dead baby? 1249 01:19:51,080 --> 01:19:53,559 Speaker 1: Uh what do what? What do you say? His mom 1250 01:19:53,600 --> 01:19:58,599 Speaker 1: always said, if I don't have nothing nice to say, 1251 01:19:58,760 --> 01:20:01,800 Speaker 1: they don't say nothing. Make I mean, they don't say 1252 01:20:01,800 --> 01:20:06,360 Speaker 1: anything at all? Are your CD Lewis fan? Or is 1253 01:20:06,400 --> 01:20:13,879 Speaker 1: this about Jacksonville? I have nothing to say? Okay, period? Okay, 1254 01:20:13,960 --> 01:20:20,599 Speaker 1: so we can we can play start sick cut now. Okay, okay, 1255 01:20:20,640 --> 01:20:23,040 Speaker 1: so we we didn't play start sick cut on the 1256 01:20:23,120 --> 01:20:27,439 Speaker 1: last episode, but the last here we are we must 1257 01:20:27,439 --> 01:20:32,240 Speaker 1: play starts sick cut. Um. Today, we have two topics. 1258 01:20:32,720 --> 01:20:38,400 Speaker 1: The first thing is the Power five conferences that are 1259 01:20:38,439 --> 01:20:43,040 Speaker 1: still playing? How would you rank? Who are you starting? 1260 01:20:43,560 --> 01:20:46,320 Speaker 1: Who are you sitting? Who are you cutting? As far 1261 01:20:46,400 --> 01:20:50,559 Speaker 1: as the Pack twelve conferences that are still playing, we'll 1262 01:20:50,560 --> 01:20:53,760 Speaker 1: start wars starting. Well, I'm gonna start the a c 1263 01:20:53,920 --> 01:20:58,280 Speaker 1: C because I think that they've they've been just sort 1264 01:20:58,280 --> 01:21:02,360 Speaker 1: of quietly going about their busines. Nos. UM, there hasn't 1265 01:21:02,400 --> 01:21:06,599 Speaker 1: been any pot shots that I remember. There might have been, 1266 01:21:06,640 --> 01:21:10,240 Speaker 1: but they're just not memorable to me. UM. As far 1267 01:21:10,320 --> 01:21:13,920 Speaker 1: as back and forth between the a CEC Commissioner and 1268 01:21:14,080 --> 01:21:18,200 Speaker 1: the Pack twelve and the Big ten, UM, most of 1269 01:21:18,200 --> 01:21:21,439 Speaker 1: those whoo, I mean Florida State took a massive hell 1270 01:21:22,120 --> 01:21:27,040 Speaker 1: coming out the gate. But for for the most part, UM, 1271 01:21:27,080 --> 01:21:31,200 Speaker 1: you know, Clemson handled business. Clemson has sort of been 1272 01:21:31,280 --> 01:21:36,160 Speaker 1: out in the forefront of UM, both wanting to play 1273 01:21:36,360 --> 01:21:39,240 Speaker 1: and also address a lot of the UM you know, 1274 01:21:39,320 --> 01:21:41,439 Speaker 1: social issues that are going I think Trevor Lawrence has 1275 01:21:41,439 --> 01:21:43,840 Speaker 1: been an awesome ambassador for the game, even though he 1276 01:21:43,880 --> 01:21:46,479 Speaker 1: has absolutely no reason to even take a snap this year, 1277 01:21:46,880 --> 01:21:49,960 Speaker 1: and he's gonna be the number one pick regardless. UM. 1278 01:21:50,040 --> 01:21:51,800 Speaker 1: But I'm starting the a c C. I think that 1279 01:21:51,840 --> 01:21:55,680 Speaker 1: they're handling being in the mix the best of the 1280 01:21:55,720 --> 01:22:01,400 Speaker 1: three conferences, UM, I would say, okay, of the three conferences. 1281 01:22:01,400 --> 01:22:07,760 Speaker 1: So the SEC hasn't started yet, uh so I am 1282 01:22:08,040 --> 01:22:12,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna start the SEC. I'm gonna start them because 1283 01:22:12,760 --> 01:22:16,559 Speaker 1: they haven't had anything go wrong yet in terms of 1284 01:22:16,600 --> 01:22:19,400 Speaker 1: except for Ed Oderon today talking about oh yeah, I 1285 01:22:19,400 --> 01:22:22,160 Speaker 1: think think my whole I think my whole team had 1286 01:22:22,240 --> 01:22:26,160 Speaker 1: COVID already. Like, shut up, you're not an emmy knowledgeist. 1287 01:22:26,560 --> 01:22:30,960 Speaker 1: That's exactly why college football coaches cannot be the medical 1288 01:22:32,120 --> 01:22:38,000 Speaker 1: the decision makers, and so uh oh so quick story. 1289 01:22:38,360 --> 01:22:42,960 Speaker 1: The UH schools are also changing some Some schools have 1290 01:22:43,000 --> 01:22:47,479 Speaker 1: already changed their policy on how they're dealing with COVID cases. 1291 01:22:47,960 --> 01:22:51,080 Speaker 1: So instead of the medical staffs being involved in it, 1292 01:22:51,240 --> 01:22:55,599 Speaker 1: the kids get a caseworker and they're not even allowed 1293 01:22:55,640 --> 01:22:58,960 Speaker 1: to tell the trainers or anybody else whether they have 1294 01:22:59,000 --> 01:23:03,280 Speaker 1: tested positive or whether they're just contact quarantined, and then 1295 01:23:03,360 --> 01:23:06,200 Speaker 1: they are allowed to come back once their case worker 1296 01:23:06,680 --> 01:23:12,200 Speaker 1: clears them, no time before that. So it's so it's 1297 01:23:12,360 --> 01:23:16,160 Speaker 1: uh stops with the hipo viola violations. And it also 1298 01:23:16,720 --> 01:23:20,240 Speaker 1: you know, takes the coaches out of the decision makers, 1299 01:23:21,360 --> 01:23:23,840 Speaker 1: out of the decision process, being that they've proven that 1300 01:23:23,920 --> 01:23:30,320 Speaker 1: they can't be objective. So I am starting the sec 1301 01:23:31,000 --> 01:23:33,360 Speaker 1: they don't start till the twenty six. They haven't had 1302 01:23:33,400 --> 01:23:36,720 Speaker 1: anything go wrong so far, aside from a bunch of 1303 01:23:36,720 --> 01:23:39,599 Speaker 1: COVID cases on our campuses. Because they won't shut them 1304 01:23:39,640 --> 01:23:44,360 Speaker 1: shut them down. Um. But yeah, so for right now, 1305 01:23:44,479 --> 01:23:50,960 Speaker 1: I'm starting the SEC. Who are you sitting I'm I say, 1306 01:23:51,000 --> 01:23:54,280 Speaker 1: I'm sitting there, SEC because they got these kids on 1307 01:23:54,360 --> 01:23:58,680 Speaker 1: campus who just don't care, and so I would I 1308 01:23:58,720 --> 01:24:04,519 Speaker 1: would encourage them too to hold back, um and just 1309 01:24:04,640 --> 01:24:07,519 Speaker 1: understand that like that your campus environment could end up 1310 01:24:07,560 --> 01:24:11,639 Speaker 1: costing you football. And so that's that's the reason they're 1311 01:24:11,640 --> 01:24:13,680 Speaker 1: on the bench for me, is until they get the 1312 01:24:13,720 --> 01:24:18,000 Speaker 1: campuses under control. Um that you know, they're they're putting 1313 01:24:18,040 --> 01:24:22,479 Speaker 1: their whole seasons at risk by not making sure that 1314 01:24:22,479 --> 01:24:27,559 Speaker 1: the student body understands, you know, what's at risk and 1315 01:24:27,560 --> 01:24:30,240 Speaker 1: and you know, isn't just a bunch of um kids 1316 01:24:30,240 --> 01:24:32,120 Speaker 1: who are stir crazy for me and locked in their 1317 01:24:32,160 --> 01:24:36,160 Speaker 1: house for the last six months and you know, partying 1318 01:24:36,200 --> 01:24:38,960 Speaker 1: out on frat row every single day. Yeah, but then 1319 01:24:38,960 --> 01:24:45,400 Speaker 1: they're gonna say, but did you die though, Um, I 1320 01:24:45,479 --> 01:24:48,320 Speaker 1: am going to sit the a c C. I'm gonna 1321 01:24:48,360 --> 01:24:53,120 Speaker 1: sit the a c C. Because, um, they're literally having 1322 01:24:53,200 --> 01:24:56,200 Speaker 1: to shut down games because they have people on campus 1323 01:24:56,240 --> 01:25:00,400 Speaker 1: to say thing like the SEC is doing, so they're 1324 01:25:00,400 --> 01:25:03,519 Speaker 1: having to cancel games, so they have to sit out. 1325 01:25:03,640 --> 01:25:08,720 Speaker 1: So they have to sit and start sit cut who 1326 01:25:08,720 --> 01:25:15,000 Speaker 1: are you uh? Who are you cutting? Big twelve because 1327 01:25:15,040 --> 01:25:17,960 Speaker 1: they at the end of the day they probably wished 1328 01:25:17,960 --> 01:25:21,880 Speaker 1: that they had stopped. You gotta put them out of 1329 01:25:21,920 --> 01:25:27,320 Speaker 1: their misery. I was surprised by what happened to Kansas State. 1330 01:25:29,400 --> 01:25:34,160 Speaker 1: I was appalled by what happened to Kansas Kansas. Okay, 1331 01:25:34,200 --> 01:25:38,200 Speaker 1: so if anybody does doesn't know, so we can openly 1332 01:25:38,280 --> 01:25:41,479 Speaker 1: talk about this. I am sitting the Big twelve two. 1333 01:25:41,560 --> 01:25:43,960 Speaker 1: It was completely obvious because there was only three options. 1334 01:25:44,000 --> 01:25:49,320 Speaker 1: But Louisiana lost to Louisiana beat Iowa State, who was ranked, 1335 01:25:49,880 --> 01:25:55,519 Speaker 1: Arkansas State beat Kansas State, and Coastal freaking Carolina beat 1336 01:25:55,640 --> 01:26:02,920 Speaker 1: Kansas and Houston Baptist Bear League missed beating Texas Tech 1337 01:26:03,160 --> 01:26:05,760 Speaker 1: Houston Baptist. I didn't even know that that was I mean, 1338 01:26:05,840 --> 01:26:08,720 Speaker 1: is that an HBCU or is it a just a 1339 01:26:08,840 --> 01:26:14,320 Speaker 1: small college? Honestly, no idea none. I didn't even know that. 1340 01:26:14,360 --> 01:26:16,759 Speaker 1: I didn't even know they had football me either, dude. 1341 01:26:17,040 --> 01:26:20,720 Speaker 1: I mean that's like, that's that's like I found out 1342 01:26:20,760 --> 01:26:23,479 Speaker 1: a couple of years ago to Georgetown even played football, 1343 01:26:23,800 --> 01:26:26,920 Speaker 1: so I knew a kid who played quarterbacks to me, 1344 01:26:27,640 --> 01:26:31,760 Speaker 1: so that I learned about them from him getting the 1345 01:26:31,840 --> 01:26:36,200 Speaker 1: quarterback job. So yeah, I mean the Big twelve has 1346 01:26:36,240 --> 01:26:40,320 Speaker 1: been awful. But I don't mind all these upsets though. 1347 01:26:40,400 --> 01:26:43,080 Speaker 1: I'll tell you I love it. I do love college 1348 01:26:43,080 --> 01:26:47,400 Speaker 1: football with all with all these upsets, and and and 1349 01:26:47,439 --> 01:26:52,959 Speaker 1: I hope that this weekend that we get UM Tulsa 1350 01:26:53,080 --> 01:26:58,679 Speaker 1: beating Oklahoma State, Houston beating Baylor, Florida South Florida beating 1351 01:26:58,840 --> 01:27:03,559 Speaker 1: Notre Dame. I think these are optimal scenarios for me. Yeah. 1352 01:27:03,600 --> 01:27:07,080 Speaker 1: The the interesting one for me was Iowa State because 1353 01:27:07,080 --> 01:27:11,360 Speaker 1: there was all that hype on Rock Purty. And I'll 1354 01:27:11,360 --> 01:27:16,160 Speaker 1: tell you this, I mean, it's legit. I came up 1355 01:27:16,160 --> 01:27:21,559 Speaker 1: watching him. He is an absolute freak when when he 1356 01:27:21,640 --> 01:27:25,120 Speaker 1: has a rhythm of the offense. I don't know what 1357 01:27:25,240 --> 01:27:30,360 Speaker 1: happened against Louisiana Lafayette, but the funniest thing about that 1358 01:27:30,439 --> 01:27:33,200 Speaker 1: whole game was Billy Napier was the o C at 1359 01:27:33,200 --> 01:27:37,040 Speaker 1: Arizona State when Brock Purty was the quarterback out at 1360 01:27:37,080 --> 01:27:39,880 Speaker 1: Perry High School out here, and and and a. SU 1361 01:27:39,960 --> 01:27:43,000 Speaker 1: refused to recruit him until it was too late, and 1362 01:27:43,000 --> 01:27:46,160 Speaker 1: then he turned them down to even take a visit 1363 01:27:46,680 --> 01:27:49,639 Speaker 1: to the campus. And so it was. It was kind 1364 01:27:49,680 --> 01:27:51,360 Speaker 1: of funny to see those two go to head to 1365 01:27:51,400 --> 01:27:53,680 Speaker 1: head and then Billy Napier got the best of him, 1366 01:27:53,720 --> 01:27:57,880 Speaker 1: and he's done a fantastic job out there um at Louisiana. 1367 01:27:58,479 --> 01:28:01,000 Speaker 1: I think that one was probably because I was State 1368 01:28:01,000 --> 01:28:03,160 Speaker 1: was supposed to be a big twelve darling, So that 1369 01:28:03,200 --> 01:28:07,360 Speaker 1: one was probably uh stung a lot more for the 1370 01:28:07,640 --> 01:28:10,120 Speaker 1: for the conference as a whole than the Kansas State 1371 01:28:10,240 --> 01:28:12,640 Speaker 1: in Kansas one. But the Kansas one, to me is 1372 01:28:12,680 --> 01:28:14,880 Speaker 1: what stands out because they didn't just it's not like 1373 01:28:14,920 --> 01:28:17,559 Speaker 1: they lost a squeaker. They got their ass beat. They 1374 01:28:17,600 --> 01:28:21,559 Speaker 1: give up thirty eight points to Coastal Carolina, which I 1375 01:28:21,720 --> 01:28:28,080 Speaker 1: thought was a baseball school up until last year. So yeah, 1376 01:28:28,200 --> 01:28:33,400 Speaker 1: I was shocked that that that even happened, and it it. 1377 01:28:33,960 --> 01:28:37,040 Speaker 1: If I'm the Pack twelve, I look really hard at 1378 01:28:37,200 --> 01:28:39,920 Speaker 1: not scheduling any Mountain West. We already say it on 1379 01:28:39,920 --> 01:28:42,640 Speaker 1: this podcast all the time, avoid the Mountain West if 1380 01:28:42,640 --> 01:28:45,360 Speaker 1: at all possible. But I think the Mountain West comes 1381 01:28:45,400 --> 01:28:48,280 Speaker 1: calling and says, hey, can we get a nonconference game 1382 01:28:48,320 --> 01:28:51,000 Speaker 1: in before we all restart our seasons? Whenever we restart them, 1383 01:28:51,040 --> 01:28:52,960 Speaker 1: I think the PAC twelve needs to say you know 1384 01:28:53,000 --> 01:29:00,880 Speaker 1: new phone who this We're not We're not interested. You 1385 01:29:00,920 --> 01:29:03,000 Speaker 1: don't want to play? You want to go play in Laramie, 1386 01:29:03,479 --> 01:29:10,600 Speaker 1: Wyoming in November. Do nobody wants to play in Laramie, Wyoming? 1387 01:29:10,760 --> 01:29:15,200 Speaker 1: I mean ever? Yeah? There, I mean think, I mean, 1388 01:29:15,439 --> 01:29:18,960 Speaker 1: think about it. They who is the last good pro 1389 01:29:19,120 --> 01:29:22,840 Speaker 1: player to come out of Wyoming? Anyway? Oh, don't do this, 1390 01:29:23,280 --> 01:29:27,720 Speaker 1: don't do this. What we're not We're not doing this. 1391 01:29:28,479 --> 01:29:31,839 Speaker 1: Do what do away? All right, So we'll eliminate quarterbacks 1392 01:29:31,840 --> 01:29:33,360 Speaker 1: in the competition since we don't want to have a 1393 01:29:33,400 --> 01:29:35,679 Speaker 1: half hour debate that we already have on the phone 1394 01:29:35,720 --> 01:29:40,200 Speaker 1: earlier this morning. Um, and I will say that Andrew Wingered, 1395 01:29:40,320 --> 01:29:44,920 Speaker 1: the safety for the Jacksonville Jaguars, is was a can't 1396 01:29:44,920 --> 01:29:47,680 Speaker 1: miss prospect and everybody missed on him anyway. He went 1397 01:29:47,760 --> 01:29:53,960 Speaker 1: undrafted and he's already he got He intercepted Philip Rivers. So, um, 1398 01:29:54,040 --> 01:29:56,080 Speaker 1: that's a hell of a pro I think Brian Hill 1399 01:29:56,439 --> 01:29:58,960 Speaker 1: running back for the Falcons, he's a real good player, 1400 01:29:59,360 --> 01:30:03,479 Speaker 1: um low and Wilson Uh is good too. Like I said, 1401 01:30:03,479 --> 01:30:06,760 Speaker 1: there's thirteen cowboys in the pros. And you know what 1402 01:30:06,800 --> 01:30:10,080 Speaker 1: I think of Josh Allen so well, I mean, well, 1403 01:30:10,240 --> 01:30:13,120 Speaker 1: well I would, I would say, then then he's the 1404 01:30:13,200 --> 01:30:16,800 Speaker 1: best Wyoming player to ever play in the NFL then 1405 01:30:16,840 --> 01:30:23,040 Speaker 1: probably because it certainly isn't bummy Josh Allen. Okay, hey, 1406 01:30:23,160 --> 01:30:25,720 Speaker 1: uh je nova check. We got to give him some 1407 01:30:26,280 --> 01:30:35,000 Speaker 1: of course, dude, of course, of course, dude. Yeah, so dude, 1408 01:30:35,080 --> 01:30:41,479 Speaker 1: I am a hundred percent um with you, dude in 1409 01:30:41,920 --> 01:30:46,080 Speaker 1: terms of Wyoming being you know, good for sending out 1410 01:30:46,120 --> 01:30:52,599 Speaker 1: some NFL players, but Josh Allen just isn't one of them. Um. 1411 01:30:52,640 --> 01:30:56,519 Speaker 1: The last start sick cut though, is probably gonna make 1412 01:30:56,520 --> 01:30:59,960 Speaker 1: some people upset, but it's okay. We are going to 1413 01:31:00,160 --> 01:31:07,240 Speaker 1: go tailgating condiments, tailgating condiments. And this all started off 1414 01:31:07,320 --> 01:31:10,000 Speaker 1: with actually we we don't even have to go tell 1415 01:31:10,080 --> 01:31:14,479 Speaker 1: tailgating CONDI condiments because I had a debate that I 1416 01:31:14,560 --> 01:31:16,720 Speaker 1: talked about on my own pie podcast, and I want 1417 01:31:16,720 --> 01:31:19,400 Speaker 1: to know where you stand on this. This was the 1418 01:31:19,600 --> 01:31:28,240 Speaker 1: Mayo versus miracle Whip. This debate because my family, I 1419 01:31:28,280 --> 01:31:30,679 Speaker 1: grew up in a house where we I grew up 1420 01:31:30,760 --> 01:31:36,840 Speaker 1: on miracle whip. My father loves miracle whip, dude, and 1421 01:31:36,840 --> 01:31:41,320 Speaker 1: and as a person who grows vegetables on a lettuce 1422 01:31:41,360 --> 01:31:44,759 Speaker 1: grow in my backyard. I probably myself on eating fresh 1423 01:31:44,800 --> 01:31:50,240 Speaker 1: food like real ingredients. Uh, miracle whip is is like 1424 01:31:50,520 --> 01:31:55,320 Speaker 1: fake mayo. Like I know that mayonnaise is fattening. However 1425 01:31:55,439 --> 01:32:00,200 Speaker 1: it's made of real ingredients. And so I refused al 1426 01:32:00,880 --> 01:32:06,599 Speaker 1: to eat miracle whip. It's it's like eating souse. I'm 1427 01:32:06,640 --> 01:32:11,120 Speaker 1: not eating souse anymore. Um I really you've become one 1428 01:32:11,120 --> 01:32:16,760 Speaker 1: of those you swore off miracle in all situations. Dude, Okay, 1429 01:32:16,880 --> 01:32:23,519 Speaker 1: so when I make it is miracle it is. You know, 1430 01:32:23,720 --> 01:32:28,800 Speaker 1: it is mayonnaise with with about fifty different fake ingredients 1431 01:32:28,880 --> 01:32:32,080 Speaker 1: including a high froug toast corn syrup to make it. 1432 01:32:32,160 --> 01:32:34,519 Speaker 1: So I am out, Dude, I don't. I don't eat 1433 01:32:34,840 --> 01:32:39,479 Speaker 1: honey sauce, which is honey. That didn't like when you 1434 01:32:39,520 --> 01:32:43,120 Speaker 1: go to KFC or something, you get honey packets. That's 1435 01:32:43,160 --> 01:32:45,600 Speaker 1: not honey, that's honey salt. It literally says it on 1436 01:32:45,640 --> 01:32:50,479 Speaker 1: the packet. If you eat Miss Buttersworth or Jemima's or 1437 01:32:50,520 --> 01:32:53,519 Speaker 1: any of those syrups, it's not or log cabin it 1438 01:32:53,640 --> 01:32:57,639 Speaker 1: is not freaking syrup. It is syrups sauce. And I 1439 01:32:57,640 --> 01:32:59,760 Speaker 1: if it didn't come out the damn tree, if it's 1440 01:32:59,800 --> 01:33:02,800 Speaker 1: not grade a maple syrup grade B. If you like that, 1441 01:33:03,320 --> 01:33:05,960 Speaker 1: then I'm not touching it. Don't give me no damn 1442 01:33:06,000 --> 01:33:08,800 Speaker 1: pancakes with no fake gas syrup, and don't give me 1443 01:33:08,840 --> 01:33:12,200 Speaker 1: no fake as honey. And yes, I do have expensive 1444 01:33:12,200 --> 01:33:16,080 Speaker 1: as Manuka honey in my in my pantry for when 1445 01:33:16,120 --> 01:33:20,160 Speaker 1: I get sick. And so yeah, so I'm definitely not 1446 01:33:20,240 --> 01:33:24,840 Speaker 1: eating no damn miracle whip. All right. Well, I would 1447 01:33:24,920 --> 01:33:27,840 Speaker 1: argue that there's a time and place for everything, and 1448 01:33:27,920 --> 01:33:32,200 Speaker 1: you grew up eating it, and you're fine. Uh, miracle 1449 01:33:32,240 --> 01:33:36,759 Speaker 1: whip is to cover up the taste of cheap meat. 1450 01:33:37,560 --> 01:33:41,840 Speaker 1: That's what it's for. I grew up eating some cheap 1451 01:33:42,200 --> 01:33:47,040 Speaker 1: food sometimes for various reasons. And miracle whip was something 1452 01:33:47,080 --> 01:33:48,880 Speaker 1: you put on a bologny sandwich to cover up the 1453 01:33:48,880 --> 01:33:51,320 Speaker 1: fact that you have to eat a Bolognay and craft 1454 01:33:51,400 --> 01:33:56,320 Speaker 1: cheese single sandwich on wonderbread. And the miracle whip would 1455 01:33:56,439 --> 01:34:00,320 Speaker 1: would would do enough of the work to make you 1456 01:34:00,640 --> 01:34:06,000 Speaker 1: not completely regret the cheese and bologna sandwich eating experience. 1457 01:34:06,000 --> 01:34:09,360 Speaker 1: And so I would say that, you know, my kids 1458 01:34:09,840 --> 01:34:13,600 Speaker 1: don't have miracle whip in the fridge ever, and and 1459 01:34:13,680 --> 01:34:15,719 Speaker 1: my my wife is one of those people that looks 1460 01:34:15,760 --> 01:34:18,840 Speaker 1: down on on miracle whip eaters.
