<v Speaker 2>an ongoing situation, Tyler. So that was my weekend. That's

0:00:52.280 --> 0:00:54.280
<v Speaker 2>something I learned, by the way, if you're thinking about

0:00:54.320 --> 0:00:59.920
<v Speaker 2>having children, could not recommend it enough. But weekends are different.

0:01:00.840 --> 0:01:05.080

0:01:05.480 --> 0:01:08.280

0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:43.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm ready to get You want to give us some

0:03:43.080 --> 0:03:45.960
<v Speaker 2>news before we get into our main subject. I do.

0:03:46.080 --> 0:03:48.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't have the sound My soundboard died.

0:03:49.080 --> 0:03:50.200
<v Speaker 2>Can you approximate it?

0:03:50.320 --> 0:03:56.480
<v Speaker 1>Tie breaking news?

0:03:57.560 --> 0:03:59.640
<v Speaker 2>I think we nailed it. We're like the guy oh now,

0:03:59.680 --> 0:04:03.440
<v Speaker 2>I forget his name, Michael something from police Academy. That's

0:04:03.480 --> 0:04:06.080
<v Speaker 2>a very old reference at this point in time. But

0:04:07.320 --> 0:04:11.080
<v Speaker 2>we do have some news. So the playoff not expanding yet.

0:04:11.360 --> 0:04:13.480
<v Speaker 2>We have a timetable.

0:04:13.640 --> 0:04:18.960
<v Speaker 1>Screeching halt sounds at the ready, yesuse it sounds like

0:04:19.040 --> 0:04:23.360
<v Speaker 1>that's where we're at. I did my best to skim

0:04:23.760 --> 0:04:28.960
<v Speaker 1>the rather long Heather Dinnish article. Okay, fair, she does

0:04:28.960 --> 0:04:29.520
<v Speaker 1>a great job.

0:04:29.920 --> 0:04:30.520
<v Speaker 2>Awesome job.

0:04:31.320 --> 0:04:35.400
<v Speaker 1>It appears as if the ACC has some reservations, particularly Clemson.

0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:40.120
<v Speaker 2>Sort of yeah, it's it's more of first of all,

0:04:40.200 --> 0:04:43.479
<v Speaker 2>capital T capital A. The alliance was not a part

0:04:43.600 --> 0:04:47.360
<v Speaker 2>of the previous conversation. Of course, Georgie k coming in

0:04:47.600 --> 0:04:50.560
<v Speaker 2>as the new commissioner in the PAC twelve was shadowing

0:04:50.680 --> 0:04:54.400
<v Speaker 2>Larry Scott during the conversations about twelve team expansion, But

0:04:55.200 --> 0:04:58.040
<v Speaker 2>in those meetings, not every commissioner was present. And of

0:04:58.080 --> 0:05:00.720
<v Speaker 2>course Jim Phillips, the commissioner of the ACC, he is

0:05:01.040 --> 0:05:04.479
<v Speaker 2>brand new as well, and so Kevin Warren relatively new

0:05:04.680 --> 0:05:07.200
<v Speaker 2>in his own right in the Big Ten. So there

0:05:07.279 --> 0:05:10.359
<v Speaker 2>is that concern because some of these commissioners are saying, look,

0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:13.000
<v Speaker 2>what does this look like for the athletes? What does

0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:15.080
<v Speaker 2>this look like with relation to nil? What does this

0:05:15.160 --> 0:05:19.440
<v Speaker 2>look like in terms of expansion expansion of the sports schedule?

0:05:19.600 --> 0:05:22.680
<v Speaker 2>And the Jim Phillips thing is he referenced talking to

0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:26.360
<v Speaker 2>coaches who were unanimous and not wanting expansion, even though

0:05:27.080 --> 0:05:29.840
<v Speaker 2>Pitt would have been in this past year if they

0:05:29.839 --> 0:05:35.240
<v Speaker 2>had adhered to a conference champion model, and Clemson players specifically,

0:05:35.480 --> 0:05:38.400
<v Speaker 2>per Jim Phillips, were not in favor of playing more games,

0:05:38.560 --> 0:05:41.800
<v Speaker 2>which is not necessarily where this is all going if

0:05:41.839 --> 0:05:44.880
<v Speaker 2>the regular season schedule is altered in some way. So

0:05:44.920 --> 0:05:48.520
<v Speaker 2>I think the sentiment was, we're cool with expansion, but

0:05:48.640 --> 0:05:50.880
<v Speaker 2>let's figure out how it can work for everybody, and

0:05:50.960 --> 0:05:55.280
<v Speaker 2>everybody not necessarily meaning conference commissioners, but everybody coaching and

0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:58.479
<v Speaker 2>playing and involved in scheduling and making this happen. From

0:05:58.520 --> 0:06:02.599
<v Speaker 2>an administrative and competitive standpoint, so that, I guess is

0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:06.719
<v Speaker 2>the point. Though it seems like expansion is inevitable, there

0:06:06.720 --> 0:06:11.360
<v Speaker 2>are now factions and conversations around the margins about how

0:06:11.360 --> 0:06:13.359
<v Speaker 2>this is all going to work. That has pushed it

0:06:13.480 --> 0:06:18.320
<v Speaker 2>pushed things back to a place of I don't know,

0:06:18.640 --> 0:06:23.240
<v Speaker 2>questionable scheduling, questionable scheduling the current I don't know when

0:06:23.240 --> 0:06:24.920
<v Speaker 2>it's gonna happen. Yeah, the current.

0:06:24.720 --> 0:06:28.480
<v Speaker 1>Format ends in what two years? Twenty twenty five, right,

0:06:29.279 --> 0:06:33.800
<v Speaker 1>And so many of these early discussions I think are

0:06:33.839 --> 0:06:35.640
<v Speaker 1>trying to go to a place where they could change

0:06:35.680 --> 0:06:39.080
<v Speaker 1>it before then. But I think we're at a point

0:06:39.120 --> 0:06:42.920
<v Speaker 1>one way or the other where they're gonna expand the playoff.

0:06:43.160 --> 0:06:45.840
<v Speaker 1>It's going to happen. It's just a matter of when

0:06:46.200 --> 0:06:48.720
<v Speaker 1>is it going to happen and works like yeah, right,

0:06:48.720 --> 0:06:50.359
<v Speaker 1>and what it looks like. Is it going to happen

0:06:50.440 --> 0:06:53.279
<v Speaker 1>before that twenty twenty five or twenty twenty six, whenever

0:06:53.320 --> 0:06:57.520
<v Speaker 1>it is, or is it going to happen after all?

0:06:57.560 --> 0:07:01.320
<v Speaker 1>Along there has been speculation media rights and what does

0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:04.000
<v Speaker 1>it mean if they do it before versus after? It

0:07:04.080 --> 0:07:07.479
<v Speaker 1>all goes to ESPN. If it's before, if it's after,

0:07:07.560 --> 0:07:09.840
<v Speaker 1>they can chop it up. It seems there's a desire

0:07:09.880 --> 0:07:12.800
<v Speaker 1>to chop it. There's like a whole slew of media

0:07:12.880 --> 0:07:16.960
<v Speaker 1>related things that are involved here, but we haven't even

0:07:16.960 --> 0:07:19.280
<v Speaker 1>gotten to that stage. Is what I think I took

0:07:19.320 --> 0:07:22.200
<v Speaker 1>away from this. What we're still kind of squabbling over

0:07:23.000 --> 0:07:26.239
<v Speaker 1>is where are we playing the games? How many games?

0:07:26.440 --> 0:07:31.280
<v Speaker 1>I saw Jim Phillips, he had some thoughtful comments, Yeah,

0:07:31.360 --> 0:07:34.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, with regard to players safety and health and

0:07:34.600 --> 0:07:37.440
<v Speaker 1>playing the extra games. And I think it's fair to

0:07:37.440 --> 0:07:39.720
<v Speaker 1>ask all those questions. I don't fault him for wanting

0:07:39.760 --> 0:07:41.440
<v Speaker 1>to get answers to those beforehand.

0:07:41.920 --> 0:07:42.760
<v Speaker 2>We will get there.

0:07:43.280 --> 0:07:45.640
<v Speaker 1>It just may not happen as quickly as we were

0:07:45.800 --> 0:07:49.080
<v Speaker 1>led to believe earlier this year when this working committee

0:07:49.120 --> 0:07:52.080
<v Speaker 1>came back with the twelve team expansion idea or ideas.

0:07:52.200 --> 0:07:55.800
<v Speaker 2>So we'll see. Yeah, it just all rubs me the

0:07:55.840 --> 0:07:59.200
<v Speaker 2>wrong way, Tym. I've been somewhat consistent in this, Like,

0:07:59.200 --> 0:08:01.000
<v Speaker 2>I know it's inevitable, I know it's happening. I know

0:08:01.080 --> 0:08:04.160
<v Speaker 2>I will personally adjust, but I am still of the

0:08:04.160 --> 0:08:06.960
<v Speaker 2>mind that this is not all the point of college football,

0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:11.840
<v Speaker 2>that this shaping and growing of January in the sport.

0:08:12.080 --> 0:08:15.720
<v Speaker 2>Like I understand everybody wants to find a national champion. Okay, great,

0:08:15.840 --> 0:08:19.440
<v Speaker 2>I'm along for that, but that we are focusing so

0:08:19.640 --> 0:08:22.080
<v Speaker 2>much and we're pouring so much into it when such

0:08:22.400 --> 0:08:25.080
<v Speaker 2>so few teams actually have a chance of winning it,

0:08:25.160 --> 0:08:26.680
<v Speaker 2>especially now that they're gonna have to win two or

0:08:26.720 --> 0:08:29.560
<v Speaker 2>three games to win the whole thing, three four, whatever,

0:08:29.600 --> 0:08:32.320
<v Speaker 2>however many games it's going to go to that, I

0:08:32.360 --> 0:08:36.560
<v Speaker 2>think we're losing sight of the appeal and charm and

0:08:36.640 --> 0:08:39.600
<v Speaker 2>the differentiating factors of the sport. Like I don't know,

0:08:39.640 --> 0:08:41.440
<v Speaker 2>you ever go to a pro stadium and you know,

0:08:41.520 --> 0:08:44.720
<v Speaker 2>like they build up the area around the stadium. There's

0:08:44.760 --> 0:08:47.600
<v Speaker 2>like a yard house, you know, all those types of places. Like,

0:08:47.760 --> 0:08:49.959
<v Speaker 2>are we just turning college football into a yard house?

0:08:50.000 --> 0:08:53.720
<v Speaker 2>We're losing all of the like interesting unique local bars

0:08:53.760 --> 0:08:56.560
<v Speaker 2>and restaurants, and we're all just dining at the places

0:08:56.559 --> 0:08:59.720
<v Speaker 2>within three hundred and forty four feet of like the

0:08:59.760 --> 0:09:01.880
<v Speaker 2>city this sends Bank Stadium or something, you know what

0:09:01.880 --> 0:09:04.920
<v Speaker 2>I'm saying that Like we're just focusing on just like

0:09:04.960 --> 0:09:08.880
<v Speaker 2>the big box element of January college football, and we're

0:09:08.920 --> 0:09:10.439
<v Speaker 2>just like, I don't know, this just doesn't seem like

0:09:10.480 --> 0:09:11.880
<v Speaker 2>the point of the sport.

0:09:11.920 --> 0:09:12.280
<v Speaker 1>At all.

0:09:12.679 --> 0:09:15.640
<v Speaker 2>And that's just me, I suppose, because obviously I'm in

0:09:15.640 --> 0:09:18.360
<v Speaker 2>the minority here. But I don't know all of these stories.

0:09:18.440 --> 0:09:21.520
<v Speaker 2>Just like God, we're thinking about January some more. This

0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:24.280
<v Speaker 2>is what this is what we want from the sport. Okay, cool?

0:09:25.600 --> 0:09:27.560
<v Speaker 2>And it just I don't know. Bums me out. I

0:09:27.600 --> 0:09:29.920
<v Speaker 2>know what's happening. I know it's inevitable. I'll get on

0:09:30.000 --> 0:09:32.480
<v Speaker 2>board in the way that I can, But I don't know, Ty,

0:09:32.880 --> 0:09:35.080
<v Speaker 2>does this do it for you? Is this really doing

0:09:35.120 --> 0:09:36.640
<v Speaker 2>it for you? That's a leading question.

0:09:37.360 --> 0:09:41.240
<v Speaker 1>I love the idea of playing first round playoff games

0:09:41.280 --> 0:09:44.400
<v Speaker 1>on campus. Sure, I don't know if that will happen,

0:09:44.880 --> 0:09:48.880
<v Speaker 1>but at least that very specific aspect of some of

0:09:48.920 --> 0:09:52.320
<v Speaker 1>the plans that have been floated, that very specific aspect

0:09:52.520 --> 0:09:54.440
<v Speaker 1>is of incredible interest to me.

0:09:55.080 --> 0:09:56.360
<v Speaker 2>I would love to see that.

0:09:57.040 --> 0:09:59.800
<v Speaker 1>I think that would very much play into what you're

0:09:59.840 --> 0:10:04.360
<v Speaker 1>just that nuance, the uniqueness of college football having games

0:10:04.400 --> 0:10:04.840
<v Speaker 1>on campus.

0:10:05.480 --> 0:10:06.400
<v Speaker 2>Right, Are they gonna do it?

0:10:06.440 --> 0:10:08.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I don't know if that's something that

0:10:08.800 --> 0:10:11.800
<v Speaker 1>they can agree to. Everybody seems wedded to the bowl

0:10:11.880 --> 0:10:14.800
<v Speaker 1>system as it stands. You know, I'm not going to

0:10:14.880 --> 0:10:16.199
<v Speaker 1>take the side on that. I just would love to

0:10:16.200 --> 0:10:18.160
<v Speaker 1>see more games on campus. I think that's the one

0:10:18.160 --> 0:10:21.360
<v Speaker 1>thing you and I can agree on. Beyond that, though,

0:10:21.920 --> 0:10:25.959
<v Speaker 1>how they structure it, how teams get in, how deep

0:10:25.960 --> 0:10:29.600
<v Speaker 1>into January this thing goes. It's also fair to ask

0:10:29.720 --> 0:10:33.480
<v Speaker 1>those questions because for as much as we paid attention

0:10:33.640 --> 0:10:37.240
<v Speaker 1>to the Alabama versus Georgia National Championship game, and for

0:10:37.320 --> 0:10:40.079
<v Speaker 1>as much as I know that it was a big

0:10:40.120 --> 0:10:43.120
<v Speaker 1>deal to watch that game on January tenth for most

0:10:43.160 --> 0:10:45.439
<v Speaker 1>of the people who listen to the show, I also

0:10:45.480 --> 0:10:47.920
<v Speaker 1>know there are a fair amount of folks who, after

0:10:47.960 --> 0:10:53.440
<v Speaker 1>their team played their bowl game, presumably before January tenth,

0:10:53.559 --> 0:10:56.560
<v Speaker 1>they were like, no, I'm good, I'm not gonna stay up.

0:10:56.640 --> 0:10:58.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna stay up to watch the SEC championship

0:10:58.720 --> 0:11:02.439
<v Speaker 1>game again. Just let me know what happens after the

0:11:02.520 --> 0:11:06.600
<v Speaker 1>fact ESPN dot com, cbssports dot Com, and I'll be

0:11:06.679 --> 0:11:09.360
<v Speaker 1>good with that. The same was true to an extent

0:11:09.360 --> 0:11:11.600
<v Speaker 1>with the playoff right if your team wasn't in it,

0:11:11.640 --> 0:11:14.040
<v Speaker 1>we saw ratings were down, and I could talk as

0:11:14.080 --> 0:11:17.680
<v Speaker 1>much as I want about playing games in New Year's

0:11:17.720 --> 0:11:20.480
<v Speaker 1>even what that means, But I just think they need

0:11:20.480 --> 0:11:25.120
<v Speaker 1>to find some way to keep interest high. If they're

0:11:25.160 --> 0:11:28.240
<v Speaker 1>going to really invest heavily into this twelve team model,

0:11:28.280 --> 0:11:30.800
<v Speaker 1>now I'm all for it. I'm okay with it. I

0:11:30.840 --> 0:11:33.640
<v Speaker 1>think at least initially, there will be interest in seeing

0:11:33.720 --> 0:11:35.320
<v Speaker 1>what happens in those first two rounds.

0:11:35.360 --> 0:11:38.360
<v Speaker 2>Everybody's getting participation trophies, right, that's the whole point of this.

0:11:38.480 --> 0:11:42.040
<v Speaker 2>Allow more teams to participate with the same exact outcomes. Right,

0:11:42.080 --> 0:11:45.360
<v Speaker 2>It's a participation trophy event coming to the sport we love.

0:11:46.600 --> 0:11:52.360
<v Speaker 1>But they have not proven to me, through at least

0:11:52.360 --> 0:11:56.160
<v Speaker 1>this first version of playoff expansion, if you want to

0:11:56.200 --> 0:11:58.080
<v Speaker 1>call it that, when they went to four teams, they

0:11:58.120 --> 0:12:00.559
<v Speaker 1>have not proven that they can drive that interest through

0:12:01.080 --> 0:12:05.120
<v Speaker 1>a final four round, let alone a final twelve. I

0:12:05.160 --> 0:12:07.040
<v Speaker 1>think the interest will be higher in a final twelve,

0:12:08.960 --> 0:12:10.560
<v Speaker 1>probably more so than a final four.

0:12:11.320 --> 0:12:14.000
<v Speaker 2>But maybe they have not proven. The powers that.

0:12:13.960 --> 0:12:15.880
<v Speaker 1>Be have not proven that they have a good way

0:12:16.320 --> 0:12:20.280
<v Speaker 1>to make the college football watching public very interested, as

0:12:20.320 --> 0:12:21.800
<v Speaker 1>interested as they would like in that.

0:12:21.720 --> 0:12:22.480
<v Speaker 2>Final four round.

0:12:23.080 --> 0:12:25.280
<v Speaker 1>And so i'm they got to figure that part out.

0:12:25.280 --> 0:12:27.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't I don't know if it's marketing, I don't

0:12:27.200 --> 0:12:29.679
<v Speaker 1>know if it's by including more teams, whatever it is.

0:12:29.760 --> 0:12:31.559
<v Speaker 1>But if you're going to expand at twelve. You've got

0:12:31.559 --> 0:12:33.640
<v Speaker 1>to prove out that the interest is going to be

0:12:33.640 --> 0:12:34.720
<v Speaker 1>as high as you want it to be.

0:12:35.720 --> 0:12:38.000
<v Speaker 2>I am not bright enough, and please let me be

0:12:38.080 --> 0:12:40.800
<v Speaker 2>the first to announce this. I'm not bright enough to

0:12:40.920 --> 0:12:44.640
<v Speaker 2>understand TV ratings, what it all means, what to extrapolate

0:12:44.679 --> 0:12:47.960
<v Speaker 2>from down ratings, from up ratings, how streaming numbers are

0:12:48.000 --> 0:12:50.800
<v Speaker 2>involved or not involved, or people watching in groups or

0:12:50.840 --> 0:12:53.960
<v Speaker 2>at bars or whatever. I don't know any of that stuff.

0:12:53.960 --> 0:12:57.960
<v Speaker 2>That's not what I do. But it seems like with

0:12:58.040 --> 0:13:03.600
<v Speaker 2>the playoff, people were super excited in twenty fourteen fifteen, right,

0:13:03.640 --> 0:13:06.240
<v Speaker 2>that was the first season we get Oregon, Floria State, Alabama,

0:13:06.280 --> 0:13:11.199
<v Speaker 2>Ohio State, Oregon. Excuse me, Oregon. Who do they play? Yeah,

0:13:11.200 --> 0:13:13.200
<v Speaker 2>Oregon Ohio State in the National Championship. I think that

0:13:13.240 --> 0:13:15.200
<v Speaker 2>was the highest rated game. And like it has just

0:13:15.240 --> 0:13:17.800
<v Speaker 2>slowly fallen off every year, like people are excited for

0:13:17.840 --> 0:13:20.000
<v Speaker 2>something new and then like the reality of the situation

0:13:20.120 --> 0:13:22.160
<v Speaker 2>sets in and you're just like, oh, these are the

0:13:22.160 --> 0:13:25.040
<v Speaker 2>teams built to win it every year. I just something

0:13:25.040 --> 0:13:27.840
<v Speaker 2>tells me we're in for that with the twelve teamer

0:13:28.280 --> 0:13:31.000
<v Speaker 2>that you know, the sport grows during the regular season

0:13:31.120 --> 0:13:33.560
<v Speaker 2>and shrinks in the postseason, and we're having the people,

0:13:33.800 --> 0:13:36.640
<v Speaker 2>the same people decide on this postseason that have been

0:13:36.720 --> 0:13:39.360
<v Speaker 2>deciding on all of the postseasons, the commissioners and Bill

0:13:39.360 --> 0:13:42.040
<v Speaker 2>Hancock and all these people, And I just think it's

0:13:42.080 --> 0:13:44.319
<v Speaker 2>going to go that way, like there's going to be

0:13:44.360 --> 0:13:48.240
<v Speaker 2>an inevitability to whatever this playoff becomes. That is going

0:13:48.280 --> 0:13:52.000
<v Speaker 2>to sort of further steer like college football should be

0:13:52.040 --> 0:13:54.600
<v Speaker 2>like this sport or like that sport instead of college

0:13:54.600 --> 0:13:58.520
<v Speaker 2>football just being college football, right with trying to maximize

0:13:58.520 --> 0:14:02.040
<v Speaker 2>what the regular season is, instead of saying what January is, like, Oh,

0:14:02.040 --> 0:14:04.160
<v Speaker 2>we should get twelve teams or sixteen teams and be

0:14:04.240 --> 0:14:07.040
<v Speaker 2>like a Sweet sixteen like college basketball or like the NFL,

0:14:07.080 --> 0:14:09.040
<v Speaker 2>and like playing at home stadiums in the cold and

0:14:09.080 --> 0:14:11.199
<v Speaker 2>get this team from Florida to a midwestern place and

0:14:11.240 --> 0:14:15.720
<v Speaker 2>see how they play. Okay, cool, it's just going farther

0:14:15.800 --> 0:14:18.800
<v Speaker 2>and farther, further and further away from I think what

0:14:18.920 --> 0:14:21.840
<v Speaker 2>a lot of people or most people actually love about

0:14:21.840 --> 0:14:24.200
<v Speaker 2>the sport. So I don't know, we'll see happy to

0:14:24.200 --> 0:14:27.480
<v Speaker 2>be proven wrong, but it doesn't seem like people are

0:14:27.560 --> 0:14:32.520
<v Speaker 2>into postseason college football for a national championship at the moment.

0:14:33.280 --> 0:14:38.360
<v Speaker 2>Maybe that'll change when Pitt and Wisconsin and Baylor are playing.

0:14:38.360 --> 0:14:39.440
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, maybe it will.

0:14:39.800 --> 0:14:40.600
<v Speaker 1>I just I don't know.

0:14:40.720 --> 0:14:41.840
<v Speaker 2>Hard for me to see.

0:14:43.280 --> 0:14:46.680
<v Speaker 1>Right in, let us know your thought, soliverbo atmail dot com.

0:14:47.000 --> 0:14:47.880
<v Speaker 2>My hunch is that.

0:14:49.760 --> 0:14:52.480
<v Speaker 1>There's a lot of varying opinions on this for a

0:14:52.640 --> 0:14:56.800
<v Speaker 1>very subject. My opinion varies from day to day. Frankly,

0:14:56.960 --> 0:14:59.000
<v Speaker 1>I've always been a playoff guy. I'm all in favor

0:14:59.040 --> 0:15:02.040
<v Speaker 1>of twelve teams. But you can't help but be a

0:15:02.080 --> 0:15:06.040
<v Speaker 1>little bit skeptical that this thing is going to end

0:15:06.160 --> 0:15:09.840
<v Speaker 1>up being great for college football when you hear some

0:15:09.920 --> 0:15:14.560
<v Speaker 1>of the behind the scenes sure conjecture, right, It's just, yeah,

0:15:14.560 --> 0:15:17.320
<v Speaker 1>I think there's skepticism abound as to what it would do,

0:15:17.400 --> 0:15:18.920
<v Speaker 1>what it would mean, how it would help, how it

0:15:19.000 --> 0:15:21.800
<v Speaker 1>might hurt. The only way we're ultimately going to find

0:15:21.800 --> 0:15:24.360
<v Speaker 1>out is when they put this thing into effect, whether

0:15:24.360 --> 0:15:26.080
<v Speaker 1>it's an hour or later, and it will happen.

0:15:26.160 --> 0:15:29.640
<v Speaker 2>But right in, by the way, thoughts, more money, way,

0:15:29.680 --> 0:15:32.080
<v Speaker 2>more money for players would go a long way from

0:15:32.160 --> 0:15:35.200
<v Speaker 2>me in appreciating any sort of expansion.

0:15:36.240 --> 0:15:38.120
<v Speaker 1>That's all, Okay, we'll leave it at that. What else

0:15:38.120 --> 0:15:40.680
<v Speaker 1>do we have around the world of college football very

0:15:40.720 --> 0:15:42.120
<v Speaker 1>quickly before we get into our game.

0:15:42.720 --> 0:15:46.040
<v Speaker 2>Well, speaking of more money for other people beyond players,

0:15:46.160 --> 0:15:49.920
<v Speaker 2>Kirk ference is now making seven million dollars a season,

0:15:50.240 --> 0:15:52.120
<v Speaker 2>which is not an unheard of amount of money for

0:15:52.200 --> 0:15:55.520
<v Speaker 2>a relatively successful coach, which he is. He made the

0:15:55.680 --> 0:15:58.040
<v Speaker 2>Big Ten championship game this year. He's extended through twenty

0:15:58.160 --> 0:16:00.960
<v Speaker 2>twenty nine. On the heels of I looked it up.

0:16:01.120 --> 0:16:04.000
<v Speaker 2>Iowa had the one hundred and fourth most efficient scoring

0:16:04.040 --> 0:16:07.800
<v Speaker 2>offense this year under his son, one hundred and fourth.

0:16:08.240 --> 0:16:11.480
<v Speaker 2>I think he's cracked a top fifty points per drive

0:16:11.560 --> 0:16:13.720
<v Speaker 2>offense once in the past ten years.

0:16:14.200 --> 0:16:15.320
<v Speaker 1>So if that's.

0:16:15.200 --> 0:16:20.160
<v Speaker 2>Worth seven mil, that's worth seven mil. And he dissolved

0:16:20.200 --> 0:16:23.840
<v Speaker 2>the like Diversity council that he was spearheading that was

0:16:24.680 --> 0:16:27.200
<v Speaker 2>on the council recommended that they move into a new

0:16:27.240 --> 0:16:29.800
<v Speaker 2>direction with both hiring a new ad and new head

0:16:29.840 --> 0:16:34.080
<v Speaker 2>football coach. So yeah, those are the goings on in

0:16:34.120 --> 0:16:36.400
<v Speaker 2>Iowa City right now. Sucks. I guess if you're an

0:16:36.400 --> 0:16:41.440
<v Speaker 2>Iowa fan looking for a new look Iowa offense.

0:16:41.680 --> 0:16:44.800
<v Speaker 1>Not a great looked in, No, not a great look

0:16:44.800 --> 0:16:48.840
<v Speaker 1>at all. But Kirk Farrens is sticking around until thirty

0:16:48.880 --> 0:16:53.960
<v Speaker 1>twenty nine whenever it is, and I hopefully he can

0:16:53.960 --> 0:16:55.600
<v Speaker 1>make some changes on offense. I don't know, he's not

0:16:55.640 --> 0:16:58.720
<v Speaker 1>going to it's his kid, but no bringing.

0:16:58.400 --> 0:17:01.160
<v Speaker 2>More cousins more to run things.

0:17:01.240 --> 0:17:04.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, somebody needs to offer Brian Farren's a job elsewhere

0:17:04.920 --> 0:17:06.320
<v Speaker 1>to like run his own thing.

0:17:07.119 --> 0:17:10.199
<v Speaker 2>Sure, like a Kinko's. What what kind of job are

0:17:10.240 --> 0:17:10.960
<v Speaker 2>you talking about?

0:17:11.119 --> 0:17:12.639
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, but that was always the thing with

0:17:12.720 --> 0:17:14.840
<v Speaker 1>Jay Paterno at Penn State, right.

0:17:14.880 --> 0:17:16.560
<v Speaker 2>There are always jokes like, hey, are there.

0:17:16.440 --> 0:17:18.520
<v Speaker 1>Any rich boosters who can offer this guy a job

0:17:18.560 --> 0:17:20.919
<v Speaker 1>doing something else? Or do you own like a semi

0:17:20.920 --> 0:17:23.000
<v Speaker 1>pro team that perhaps you could put him in charge of,

0:17:23.080 --> 0:17:24.760
<v Speaker 1>just to get him out of that coordinator role.

0:17:24.880 --> 0:17:28.120
<v Speaker 2>A reht Bomar no show car dealership job.

0:17:28.960 --> 0:17:31.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, don't.

0:17:31.119 --> 0:17:33.439
<v Speaker 2>I don't know who that booster is at Iowa to

0:17:33.520 --> 0:17:35.320
<v Speaker 2>be like, hey, buddy, you want to you want to

0:17:35.359 --> 0:17:39.040
<v Speaker 2>sell medical parts, you want to sell you want to

0:17:39.080 --> 0:17:42.280
<v Speaker 2>sell any sort of equipment that people and you just

0:17:42.320 --> 0:17:44.320
<v Speaker 2>don't have to do it. You just show up and

0:17:44.359 --> 0:17:46.520
<v Speaker 2>be like, hey, I'm Brian, what would you like to

0:17:46.520 --> 0:17:48.600
<v Speaker 2>know about what it's like to stand on the field

0:17:48.880 --> 0:17:51.840
<v Speaker 2>at Kinnick and hopefully you can move some catheters.

0:17:52.160 --> 0:17:52.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't know.

0:17:53.960 --> 0:17:56.480
<v Speaker 2>So that's Iowa football right now. We've got transfers, we've

0:17:56.480 --> 0:17:59.360
<v Speaker 2>got NFL declarations. George is gonna look very different next year,

0:17:59.400 --> 0:18:02.080
<v Speaker 2>and by golly, I think they're still gonna be talented ty,

0:18:02.320 --> 0:18:05.119
<v Speaker 2>By golly, I think they're gonna field a good team.

0:18:05.280 --> 0:18:08.520
<v Speaker 2>But like the headline names, James Cook, Nacobe Dean Jordan

0:18:08.560 --> 0:18:14.720
<v Speaker 2>Davis obviously has gone, George Pickens, DeVante Wyatt lewis seen

0:18:14.920 --> 0:18:17.719
<v Speaker 2>who was so good all season long at safety, So

0:18:17.800 --> 0:18:20.320
<v Speaker 2>they're gonna look very different. They've had some transfers at corner,

0:18:20.359 --> 0:18:22.679
<v Speaker 2>I believe, but I saw Nolan Smith, the edge rusher

0:18:22.680 --> 0:18:27.000
<v Speaker 2>outside linebacker. He announced he's returning. Stetson Bennett expected to return.

0:18:27.960 --> 0:18:30.399
<v Speaker 2>That they're just gonna look very different, but I don't

0:18:30.440 --> 0:18:34.000
<v Speaker 2>anticipate a giant drop off. I don't believe they're gonna

0:18:34.000 --> 0:18:37.560
<v Speaker 2>be national championship contenders, but who knows, ty, come on,

0:18:37.600 --> 0:18:39.440
<v Speaker 2>they're one of like the six teams that can win

0:18:39.480 --> 0:18:42.840
<v Speaker 2>it all most years, So who am I to say? Okay?

0:18:43.160 --> 0:18:45.720
<v Speaker 1>Any other news?

0:18:45.960 --> 0:18:50.080
<v Speaker 2>Jhalil Billingsley to Texas following old offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian

0:18:50.520 --> 0:18:53.639
<v Speaker 2>Drew Sanders, the BAMA linebacker. Bama's lost a few kids.

0:18:55.080 --> 0:18:55.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, this is.

0:18:56.000 --> 0:18:58.760
<v Speaker 2>There's no way to keep up. Like Caleb Williams. The

0:18:58.760 --> 0:19:02.400
<v Speaker 2>time of this recording, Mida Monday has not signed anywhere,

0:19:02.440 --> 0:19:06.119
<v Speaker 2>though Mario Williams is now former receiver at Oklahoma, is

0:19:06.400 --> 0:19:09.960
<v Speaker 2>going to sc Jackson Dart, the freshman USC quarterback who

0:19:10.040 --> 0:19:13.159
<v Speaker 2>entered the portal, is deciding allegedly between Ole Miss and

0:19:13.200 --> 0:19:15.359
<v Speaker 2>A and m or excuse me, Ole Miss and Oklahoma.

0:19:15.880 --> 0:19:18.880
<v Speaker 2>And I think you had some thoughts like why would

0:19:18.920 --> 0:19:21.639
<v Speaker 2>he consider Oklahoma when Gabriel's there? Yeah? I mean what

0:19:21.680 --> 0:19:22.880
<v Speaker 2>am I missing? Why?

0:19:23.520 --> 0:19:28.400
<v Speaker 1>I understand that there is an appeal with Jeff Levy, Right,

0:19:28.440 --> 0:19:31.360
<v Speaker 1>I get that, and that's why Dylan Gabriel went there, right,

0:19:31.359 --> 0:19:34.600
<v Speaker 1>they're trying to I get that. I understand that. What

0:19:34.680 --> 0:19:37.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't understand for the life of me is why,

0:19:37.800 --> 0:19:40.840
<v Speaker 1>if you're Jackson Dart, why would you go into a

0:19:40.880 --> 0:19:43.520
<v Speaker 1>situation like that? Why would you sign up for a

0:19:43.600 --> 0:19:48.520
<v Speaker 1>situation right where there's already a very obvious starter who

0:19:48.600 --> 0:19:51.040
<v Speaker 1>is signed on to play at Oklahoma and you know

0:19:51.119 --> 0:19:52.639
<v Speaker 1>that from day one you're going to be in a

0:19:52.680 --> 0:19:54.920
<v Speaker 1>fierce competition to get playing time.

0:19:55.240 --> 0:19:57.399
<v Speaker 2>I understand these guys you have, like a down quarter

0:19:57.440 --> 0:19:58.640
<v Speaker 2>they're calling for the other guy.

0:19:58.760 --> 0:20:02.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I understand that if you are a quarterback recruit

0:20:02.880 --> 0:20:06.760
<v Speaker 1>at that level, you are supremely confident in your own abilities.

0:20:06.760 --> 0:20:09.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying you shouldn't seek out some level of competition,

0:20:10.280 --> 0:20:12.760
<v Speaker 1>but this is a one time transfer rule.

0:20:13.160 --> 0:20:13.600
<v Speaker 2>Okay.

0:20:13.920 --> 0:20:15.400
<v Speaker 1>So if you want to go, and if you want

0:20:15.400 --> 0:20:18.359
<v Speaker 1>to get immediate eligibility, and presumably if you want to

0:20:18.359 --> 0:20:20.520
<v Speaker 1>be an NFL quarterback and get the most out of

0:20:20.520 --> 0:20:23.199
<v Speaker 1>your college experience, why would you not go into a

0:20:23.240 --> 0:20:27.560
<v Speaker 1>situation where there is less resistance. You know, everybody, everybody

0:20:27.640 --> 0:20:30.000
<v Speaker 1>wants to talk the game, and everybody wants to beat

0:20:30.040 --> 0:20:33.280
<v Speaker 1>out the next best guy and prove their metal at

0:20:33.280 --> 0:20:36.760
<v Speaker 1>the college level. That's very admirable. Go where you're going

0:20:36.800 --> 0:20:39.960
<v Speaker 1>to get playing time. Go to Ole Miss. Ole Miss

0:20:40.000 --> 0:20:43.000
<v Speaker 1>is fine. You will do well at Ole Miss. You

0:20:43.040 --> 0:20:45.240
<v Speaker 1>can play for Charlie Weish junior and Lane Kiffin, and

0:20:45.280 --> 0:20:47.399
<v Speaker 1>you can leave in two years. I don't know what

0:20:47.480 --> 0:20:50.480
<v Speaker 1>Charlie West Junior's got up his sleeve, but nonetheless, there's

0:20:50.520 --> 0:20:53.320
<v Speaker 1>a lot less resistance at Old Miss than there is.

0:20:53.200 --> 0:20:54.760
<v Speaker 2>At at Oklahoma.

0:20:55.480 --> 0:20:59.040
<v Speaker 1>What are you doing goosing? It's fine, it's great. You

0:20:59.119 --> 0:21:02.560
<v Speaker 1>loved your time in Oxford? Great, right, yeah, it's a

0:21:02.560 --> 0:21:04.480
<v Speaker 1>fun time. I don't I don't believe Jackson Dart will

0:21:04.480 --> 0:21:06.680
<v Speaker 1>be tailgating in the way that I was tailgating when

0:21:06.680 --> 0:21:09.040
<v Speaker 1>I was twenty three years old or however old. I

0:21:09.160 --> 0:21:11.280
<v Speaker 1>was with a bunch of college girls and sun dresses,

0:21:11.320 --> 0:21:13.159
<v Speaker 1>and it was a very different experience for me that

0:21:13.160 --> 0:21:15.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure it would be friendy ole Miss quarterback tailgating.

0:21:15.920 --> 0:21:17.159
<v Speaker 1>I suppose you're attending that school.

0:21:17.440 --> 0:21:21.520
<v Speaker 2>So, uh, he might really like Oklahoma. He might really

0:21:21.560 --> 0:21:24.800
<v Speaker 2>like Brent Venables. He would be playing behind an offensive

0:21:24.800 --> 0:21:27.840
<v Speaker 2>line coach by one of the what best three, if

0:21:27.840 --> 0:21:29.200
<v Speaker 2>not the best offensive.

0:21:28.840 --> 0:21:33.359
<v Speaker 1>But what he won't play until next year? Right? You

0:21:33.359 --> 0:21:34.920
<v Speaker 1>think he's gonna beat out Dylan Gabriel.

0:21:35.040 --> 0:21:38.879
<v Speaker 2>I don't. I mean, so Jackson Dart attends USC with

0:21:38.920 --> 0:21:41.760
<v Speaker 2>another blue chip quarterback and beat him out Miller Moss

0:21:42.080 --> 0:21:44.879
<v Speaker 2>for the backup job behind Keaton Slovas. So on a

0:21:44.920 --> 0:21:47.120
<v Speaker 2>certain level, they're like, you gotta bet on yourself, right,

0:21:47.240 --> 0:21:50.040
<v Speaker 2>Like ole Miss is still bringing in quarterbacks. Ole Miss

0:21:50.080 --> 0:21:51.640
<v Speaker 2>might bring in a five star, like they might bring

0:21:51.680 --> 0:21:55.560
<v Speaker 2>in arch Manning, Like this is a landscape now where

0:21:55.720 --> 0:21:57.800
<v Speaker 2>you're like, well, I'm gonna I'm gonna go where field,

0:21:57.840 --> 0:21:59.800
<v Speaker 2>where it feels right, where the coaches are the best

0:21:59.840 --> 0:22:02.240
<v Speaker 2>at developing quarterbacks, and of course that's where all the

0:22:02.320 --> 0:22:05.199
<v Speaker 2>quarterbacks want to go. So Jackson Dart, I don't know

0:22:05.280 --> 0:22:08.000
<v Speaker 2>him personally, don't really know people that know him all

0:22:08.080 --> 0:22:10.879
<v Speaker 2>that well, but you have to assume that he feels

0:22:10.920 --> 0:22:13.680
<v Speaker 2>pretty good about his chances about starting wherever he goes

0:22:13.760 --> 0:22:16.760
<v Speaker 2>based on the interest that he's received since entering the portal,

0:22:16.760 --> 0:22:18.600
<v Speaker 2>Like where would he like, should he go to cal

0:22:19.040 --> 0:22:21.040
<v Speaker 2>and be the next average you know, play behind an

0:22:21.080 --> 0:22:23.840
<v Speaker 2>average offensive line and not throw to NFL receivers? Like,

0:22:24.640 --> 0:22:26.840
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, what are you supposed to do? I

0:22:27.240 --> 0:22:29.679
<v Speaker 2>understand that it's a should he go to Michigan and

0:22:29.720 --> 0:22:32.800
<v Speaker 2>like try to beat out Cade McNamara and JJ McCarthy.

0:22:33.240 --> 0:22:37.000
<v Speaker 1>What's the move? It's a fluid situation, yeah, pretty much

0:22:37.400 --> 0:22:40.520
<v Speaker 1>all day every day now in college football between the

0:22:40.640 --> 0:22:45.600
<v Speaker 1>nil stuff and the transfer rule and just it's different, right,

0:22:45.680 --> 0:22:48.160
<v Speaker 1>It's different than it was five years ago, ten years ago.

0:22:48.560 --> 0:22:50.080
<v Speaker 1>I get that it's fluid. I get that it's a

0:22:50.080 --> 0:22:52.639
<v Speaker 1>moving target. I get that there is no silver bullet.

0:22:53.359 --> 0:22:57.080
<v Speaker 1>I just don't understand. Like Dylan Gabriel. Dylan Gabriel is

0:22:57.080 --> 0:23:01.359
<v Speaker 1>a good example. Dylan Gabriel, Yeah, decided to go to

0:23:01.400 --> 0:23:03.960
<v Speaker 1>Oklahoma after he saw that there was an opening with

0:23:04.040 --> 0:23:08.640
<v Speaker 1>Caleb Williams leaving Sure all right, he took this philosophy

0:23:08.680 --> 0:23:11.080
<v Speaker 1>of Hey, first off, there was a relationship there with

0:23:11.160 --> 0:23:13.320
<v Speaker 1>Jeff Levit, it made sense that he'd want to go

0:23:13.359 --> 0:23:15.240
<v Speaker 1>there and play for him. But as soon as he

0:23:15.240 --> 0:23:17.679
<v Speaker 1>found out there was an opening, he pulled back his

0:23:17.760 --> 0:23:20.800
<v Speaker 1>commitment to UCLA and decided he was going to go

0:23:20.800 --> 0:23:22.600
<v Speaker 1>somewhere else. Mm hmm.

0:23:23.280 --> 0:23:24.440
<v Speaker 2>Path of these resistance.

0:23:24.760 --> 0:23:27.719
<v Speaker 1>If you have the one time transfer, don't burn it

0:23:27.880 --> 0:23:30.360
<v Speaker 1>on like a dream. Burn it on a place where

0:23:30.400 --> 0:23:32.240
<v Speaker 1>you can go and play, and hopefully, if you want

0:23:32.240 --> 0:23:35.800
<v Speaker 1>to play in the league, give yourself the most area,

0:23:35.840 --> 0:23:38.840
<v Speaker 1>the best opportunity to do so. I just the betting

0:23:38.880 --> 0:23:41.240
<v Speaker 1>on your on yourself thing makes a lot of sense

0:23:41.280 --> 0:23:41.480
<v Speaker 1>to me.

0:23:41.680 --> 0:23:42.080
<v Speaker 2>I get it.

0:23:42.119 --> 0:23:44.600
<v Speaker 1>You have to do that on sub level, but don't

0:23:44.600 --> 0:23:45.439
<v Speaker 1>be stupid about it.

0:23:45.520 --> 0:23:48.920
<v Speaker 2>Go where you're gonna play, but everywhere you go there

0:23:48.960 --> 0:23:50.840
<v Speaker 2>is going to be a quarterback of the future or

0:23:50.880 --> 0:23:53.919
<v Speaker 2>another quarterback behind you. That fans are going to clamor

0:23:53.960 --> 0:23:56.280
<v Speaker 2>for that coaches are going to consider if you struggle,

0:23:56.760 --> 0:23:58.479
<v Speaker 2>if he had stayed at USC, He's like I can

0:23:58.520 --> 0:24:01.879
<v Speaker 2>beat out Kayleb Williams like, and you though, like, I

0:24:01.920 --> 0:24:04.639
<v Speaker 2>don't know what the solution is, Like you either go

0:24:04.760 --> 0:24:07.760
<v Speaker 2>somewhere where there aren't there isn't talent around you and

0:24:07.800 --> 0:24:10.199
<v Speaker 2>the coaches don't have a track record of developing NFL

0:24:10.240 --> 0:24:14.040
<v Speaker 2>caliber quarterbacks, or someplace that has lost a bunch of

0:24:14.119 --> 0:24:16.679
<v Speaker 2>guys to the portal for whatever reason, or that they

0:24:16.680 --> 0:24:19.080
<v Speaker 2>don't have faith in their current quarterback of the future.

0:24:19.280 --> 0:24:21.919
<v Speaker 2>But all of these places, because of transfers, because of

0:24:22.160 --> 0:24:24.240
<v Speaker 2>you know, everything going on the movement in the sport,

0:24:24.520 --> 0:24:26.360
<v Speaker 2>they're all going to load up at quarterback.

0:24:26.400 --> 0:24:28.760
<v Speaker 1>But then why not just stay at USC if you're

0:24:28.800 --> 0:24:30.880
<v Speaker 1>so confident, Just stay at USC and beat out.

0:24:30.840 --> 0:24:35.320
<v Speaker 2>Whoever they bring in. Because he probably believes and rightfully so,

0:24:35.800 --> 0:24:39.480
<v Speaker 2>Caleb Williams, if he's coming to USC is already Lincoln

0:24:39.520 --> 0:24:42.119
<v Speaker 2>Riley's guy, already has a leg up on the Lincoln

0:24:42.160 --> 0:24:45.920
<v Speaker 2>Riley system, already is in with the Lincoln Riley guys

0:24:46.000 --> 0:24:46.720
<v Speaker 2>in way of life.

0:24:46.760 --> 0:24:49.639
<v Speaker 1>Well, what about he probably me Jeff Dylan Gabriel is

0:24:49.640 --> 0:24:50.320
<v Speaker 1>a Lebby guy.

0:24:50.920 --> 0:24:52.760
<v Speaker 2>Well Leby was old missed, though there was at least

0:24:52.800 --> 0:24:55.159
<v Speaker 2>some sort of space there, And I, you know, I

0:24:55.200 --> 0:24:57.399
<v Speaker 2>don't know, Ty, you might just go to a school

0:24:57.440 --> 0:25:00.679
<v Speaker 2>where you're like, this place feels like home, right this place,

0:25:00.920 --> 0:25:03.680
<v Speaker 2>see I'm looking out. Maybe they have everything.

0:25:03.760 --> 0:25:06.440
<v Speaker 1>Maybe I'm too cynical at this stage in the game.

0:25:07.000 --> 0:25:09.760
<v Speaker 1>But guys are getting money, guys are going place as

0:25:09.800 --> 0:25:13.080
<v Speaker 1>they're transferring like never before because they want to play

0:25:13.080 --> 0:25:16.919
<v Speaker 1>in the NFL. Sure, and so feels like home. You know,

0:25:17.560 --> 0:25:19.239
<v Speaker 1>you can make any place feel like home if you're

0:25:19.240 --> 0:25:22.520
<v Speaker 1>getting seven figures, or if you're getting a good nil deal,

0:25:22.680 --> 0:25:24.159
<v Speaker 1>or if you've got people in your ear telling me

0:25:24.200 --> 0:25:27.119
<v Speaker 1>the right stuff. So I only half buy that. In

0:25:27.160 --> 0:25:31.720
<v Speaker 1>most cases, I just don't. I don't get decision making.

0:25:31.960 --> 0:25:35.240
<v Speaker 2>So ole Miss is the obvious choice for you to

0:25:35.280 --> 0:25:37.199
<v Speaker 2>play for Lane Kiff. With Matt Crow moving on to

0:25:37.240 --> 0:25:40.879
<v Speaker 2>the NFL. Ole Miss has a new offensive coordinator or

0:25:40.880 --> 0:25:43.480
<v Speaker 2>not that it's not Lane Kiffin's offense, and Charlie weis junior.

0:25:44.080 --> 0:25:46.400
<v Speaker 2>They lost a bunch of I think lost some offensive

0:25:46.400 --> 0:25:50.240
<v Speaker 2>skill talent to the draft. I just I at least

0:25:50.560 --> 0:25:54.000
<v Speaker 2>Brent Venables has like its fresh eyes right, that he

0:25:54.240 --> 0:25:58.800
<v Speaker 2>himself is not necessarily loyal to Dylan Gabriel or Jackson

0:25:58.880 --> 0:26:01.159
<v Speaker 2>Dart either way, that I guess is the case. Like

0:26:01.359 --> 0:26:03.240
<v Speaker 2>right now, is there any other school where you're like,

0:26:03.280 --> 0:26:05.320
<v Speaker 2>oh man, why not go here? Why not go to

0:26:05.720 --> 0:26:09.920
<v Speaker 2>North Carolina unless you believe in Drake may is at

0:26:09.920 --> 0:26:12.600
<v Speaker 2>the quarterback of the future, Like why not go to

0:26:13.040 --> 0:26:15.199
<v Speaker 2>Like what's the school? What are the other options? Right now?

0:26:15.280 --> 0:26:17.879
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I

0:26:17.880 --> 0:26:20.240
<v Speaker 2>don't know. Don't ask me. I don't don't go to Stanford.

0:26:20.359 --> 0:26:23.719
<v Speaker 2>Their offense, they were producing NFL level quarterbacks and now

0:26:23.720 --> 0:26:24.640
<v Speaker 2>they're not. I just don't.

0:26:24.680 --> 0:26:27.520
<v Speaker 1>I just don't get it. I don't get it. There

0:26:27.640 --> 0:26:30.840
<v Speaker 1>is another very high profile quarterback that has transferred into

0:26:30.880 --> 0:26:34.840
<v Speaker 1>Oklahoma and now you are going to go there too again.

0:26:34.920 --> 0:26:37.879
<v Speaker 1>One time rule you could transfer rule, but that you

0:26:37.920 --> 0:26:41.120
<v Speaker 1>know that gets murky. One time rule, make it worth it.

0:26:42.200 --> 0:26:42.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't know.

0:26:42.560 --> 0:26:45.320
<v Speaker 2>Maybe Dylan Gabriel's I think what he broke his classical

0:26:47.040 --> 0:26:49.959
<v Speaker 2>Maybe he's got a bum collarbone that like, I don't know,

0:26:50.200 --> 0:26:52.239
<v Speaker 2>he's not throwing right, I don't know, I don't know.

0:26:52.280 --> 0:26:56.119
<v Speaker 2>I'm just speculating. I'm completely guessing that there's some reason

0:26:56.560 --> 0:26:58.520
<v Speaker 2>that he feels like he could win a job anywhere,

0:26:58.560 --> 0:27:01.560
<v Speaker 2>and those are the places that appeal to him. If

0:27:01.600 --> 0:27:03.640
<v Speaker 2>I were him. If I were him, I would look

0:27:03.720 --> 0:27:07.120
<v Speaker 2>up who the best offensive line coaches are in the country.

0:27:07.400 --> 0:27:10.560
<v Speaker 2>After what Keidan's Slovas was like on the you know,

0:27:10.840 --> 0:27:14.239
<v Speaker 2>under constant pressure at USC. I don't blame him for that.

0:27:14.400 --> 0:27:16.440
<v Speaker 2>USC couldn't develop that many. I think they had a

0:27:16.440 --> 0:27:19.120
<v Speaker 2>couple of offensive line draft picks, But I don't blame

0:27:19.200 --> 0:27:21.120
<v Speaker 2>him for looking at it like that. I look forward

0:27:21.160 --> 0:27:23.000
<v Speaker 2>to seeing where he goes. I look forward to following

0:27:23.000 --> 0:27:26.480
<v Speaker 2>his career. He looks like Anakin Skywalker, right, that's his thing.

0:27:27.000 --> 0:27:29.199
<v Speaker 1>That That is literally why he does the EyeBlack thing.

0:27:29.280 --> 0:27:34.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah right, okay, that's literally why. So all right, we've

0:27:34.640 --> 0:27:40.320
<v Speaker 1>got a fun game planned for today. Yes, we're gonna

0:27:40.320 --> 0:27:42.320
<v Speaker 1>be logging onto the internet. Dan, can you please play

0:27:42.359 --> 0:27:45.440
<v Speaker 1>that sound for me? Of course, there it is. Everybody

0:27:45.480 --> 0:27:49.200
<v Speaker 1>knows this sound unless you are a youth. So a

0:27:49.359 --> 0:27:55.040
<v Speaker 1>gen z our bod modems are dialed in. We are

0:27:55.080 --> 0:27:59.200
<v Speaker 1>hardwired now into the good old fashioned interwebs. For as

0:27:59.280 --> 0:28:01.760
<v Speaker 1>long as I can remember, for as long as you

0:28:01.800 --> 0:28:06.520
<v Speaker 1>can remember, message boards have powered the college football community.

0:28:07.080 --> 0:28:09.720
<v Speaker 1>It is truly one of the things that has made

0:28:09.720 --> 0:28:13.359
<v Speaker 1>college football unique. Every sport has it, college football takes

0:28:13.400 --> 0:28:17.280
<v Speaker 1>it to something of a different level. Yes, Over the

0:28:17.359 --> 0:28:20.439
<v Speaker 1>last couple of years, there have been a variety of

0:28:20.840 --> 0:28:23.480
<v Speaker 1>social media accounts that have popped up to track some

0:28:23.600 --> 0:28:27.840
<v Speaker 1>of the oddities that transpire in this very secular or

0:28:27.920 --> 0:28:32.639
<v Speaker 1>these very secular college football ecosystems. One that you and

0:28:32.720 --> 0:28:35.919
<v Speaker 1>I have grown particularly fond of is called message board

0:28:36.080 --> 0:28:43.480
<v Speaker 1>Geniuses Accurate treasurer at board geniuses on Twitter. We're big

0:28:43.520 --> 0:28:47.520
<v Speaker 1>fans of the work. They don't know that we're doing this, But.

0:28:47.680 --> 0:28:50.360
<v Speaker 2>Is that boa r D or b o r e D.

0:28:51.280 --> 0:28:53.920
<v Speaker 1>It could be the hand Yeah, that's true. I believe

0:28:53.920 --> 0:28:57.480
<v Speaker 1>it's just bo ar D genius, Okay. And what they

0:28:57.520 --> 0:29:00.760
<v Speaker 1>do is they capture some of the local flavor from

0:29:00.800 --> 0:29:03.560
<v Speaker 1>around college football. I'm assuming many of these are sent

0:29:03.720 --> 0:29:06.200
<v Speaker 1>and they're not in any position to track all of

0:29:06.200 --> 0:29:09.080
<v Speaker 1>them at once. It would be a gargantuan effort. But

0:29:09.800 --> 0:29:12.520
<v Speaker 1>what you and I have done is we have gone

0:29:12.560 --> 0:29:16.560
<v Speaker 1>through this beloved Twitter feed. We have pulled some of

0:29:16.600 --> 0:29:19.720
<v Speaker 1>our favorites and we are actually going to analyze the

0:29:19.800 --> 0:29:23.760
<v Speaker 1>veracity of some of these claims right as you might expect.

0:29:23.920 --> 0:29:28.959
<v Speaker 1>Some are just incredibly galaxy brain and overthought and ridiculous

0:29:29.000 --> 0:29:33.640
<v Speaker 1>in nature. Some actually I pulled a couple. It's like, okay, okay,

0:29:33.680 --> 0:29:35.520
<v Speaker 1>I can I can.

0:29:35.400 --> 0:29:36.720
<v Speaker 2>Maybe see this some board.

0:29:36.840 --> 0:29:39.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, come on board. For those watching the video, I

0:29:39.560 --> 0:29:41.480
<v Speaker 1>put together a tinfoil hat that I'm now.

0:29:41.360 --> 0:29:42.440
<v Speaker 2>Putting on you.

0:29:42.440 --> 0:29:45.680
<v Speaker 1>You look wonderful. I put the tinfoil hat on here.

0:29:46.320 --> 0:29:47.160
<v Speaker 1>Uh huh.

0:29:47.240 --> 0:29:48.120
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to wear it for.

0:29:48.040 --> 0:29:50.160
<v Speaker 1>The remainder of the episode because we need to do

0:29:50.240 --> 0:29:54.880
<v Speaker 1>so in order to talk through some of these things. Yeah,

0:29:54.920 --> 0:29:55.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm excited.

0:29:55.520 --> 0:29:57.800
<v Speaker 2>By the way. Can I ask you? Can I ask

0:29:57.800 --> 0:30:03.600
<v Speaker 2>you about the ethics of screen grabbing paywalled in some cases,

0:30:03.640 --> 0:30:08.040
<v Speaker 2>in most cases, messages on messages on message boards. Do

0:30:08.120 --> 0:30:13.000
<v Speaker 2>you think it's okay in the interest of hilarious transparency

0:30:13.680 --> 0:30:17.240
<v Speaker 2>or do you think it's akin to the matt Ufford

0:30:17.280 --> 0:30:22.280
<v Speaker 2>theory of nobody should ever film anybody else at karaoke, right,

0:30:22.320 --> 0:30:27.280
<v Speaker 2>that that's a private, safe place to get things off

0:30:27.320 --> 0:30:29.840
<v Speaker 2>of your chest and to vent in a lot of

0:30:29.840 --> 0:30:32.440
<v Speaker 2>the same ways, karaoke is right. That you're just like

0:30:32.480 --> 0:30:33.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna have a couple of drinks. I had a

0:30:34.040 --> 0:30:36.920
<v Speaker 2>rough work week. I'm just gonna belt out. Let's do

0:30:37.000 --> 0:30:40.160
<v Speaker 2>it for the boys or whatever your your karaoke song is.

0:30:41.440 --> 0:30:46.000
<v Speaker 2>Do you feel that it's an unethical violation to publicize

0:30:46.520 --> 0:30:48.120
<v Speaker 2>this kind of private space.

0:30:49.080 --> 0:30:52.760
<v Speaker 1>Clearly they are not the ones going out and getting

0:30:53.240 --> 0:30:55.840
<v Speaker 1>these screen right, of course they're being sent to them, but.

0:30:55.840 --> 0:31:00.840
<v Speaker 2>They're publicizing how many Twitter followers does something right. It's

0:31:00.840 --> 0:31:04.600
<v Speaker 2>not insignificant, So I am okay with it. Because we

0:31:04.680 --> 0:31:08.520
<v Speaker 2>college we cover college football from the national broad view,

0:31:09.200 --> 0:31:13.320
<v Speaker 2>where all of these things at the more team specific

0:31:13.440 --> 0:31:16.280
<v Speaker 2>level are not always visible, so I appreciate the level

0:31:16.320 --> 0:31:18.880
<v Speaker 2>of insight. I say it's okay because I believe they

0:31:18.880 --> 0:31:22.520
<v Speaker 2>only post anonymous accounts, so it's not Dave Davis from

0:31:22.560 --> 0:31:27.280
<v Speaker 2>Dave Davis Dental posting. Here's what I think about you

0:31:27.320 --> 0:31:30.640
<v Speaker 2>know so and So's ex wife. I think I'm okay

0:31:30.680 --> 0:31:34.200
<v Speaker 2>with the anonymous element of it. So I'm okay ethically

0:31:34.960 --> 0:31:38.480
<v Speaker 2>with the ridiculous things we're about to approach. So you

0:31:38.560 --> 0:31:42.040
<v Speaker 2>got a bunch here? Were you a poster ever? Yes?

0:31:43.000 --> 0:31:43.560
<v Speaker 1>A lurker?

0:31:44.240 --> 0:31:44.880
<v Speaker 2>Yes? And yes?

0:31:45.680 --> 0:31:47.840
<v Speaker 1>Okay? How many message board accounts do you have?

0:31:50.200 --> 0:31:53.320
<v Speaker 2>Currently just one and I can't say much beyond that.

0:31:54.080 --> 0:31:57.360
<v Speaker 2>But I way back when I used to lurk and

0:31:57.440 --> 0:32:00.360
<v Speaker 2>I think occasionally post. My career is a no small

0:32:00.360 --> 0:32:01.360
<v Speaker 2>parts message boards.

0:32:01.360 --> 0:32:04.320
<v Speaker 1>You know this. I do tell my story band great story.

0:32:04.120 --> 0:32:06.800
<v Speaker 2>I spammed when I was at before I was at SI,

0:32:06.920 --> 0:32:08.640
<v Speaker 2>when I was doing the college what was the College

0:32:08.680 --> 0:32:10.880
<v Speaker 2>Football Tour Guide? How I got my start in my

0:32:10.920 --> 0:32:13.520
<v Speaker 2>own website doing these videos at Tailgates. I used to

0:32:13.560 --> 0:32:16.920
<v Speaker 2>spam every single Scout and Rivals message board with my videos.

0:32:17.080 --> 0:32:18.960
<v Speaker 2>I used to embent every single one of them, like, hey,

0:32:19.000 --> 0:32:20.880
<v Speaker 2>I went to text A and M this week. Hey,

0:32:20.880 --> 0:32:22.440
<v Speaker 2>and I just put put it on every site and

0:32:22.440 --> 0:32:24.040
<v Speaker 2>it got viewers, it did well, and then I just

0:32:24.080 --> 0:32:25.800
<v Speaker 2>I got banned I'm sure from all of them, but

0:32:25.840 --> 0:32:29.000
<v Speaker 2>it worked, so uh, don't do that now. That's not nice.

0:32:29.120 --> 0:32:35.320
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, I used to post and uh lurk some

0:32:35.600 --> 0:32:37.840
<v Speaker 2>on I don't remember if I paid or if I

0:32:37.840 --> 0:32:40.320
<v Speaker 2>got comped by people. I know that I don't remember

0:32:40.320 --> 0:32:42.280
<v Speaker 2>because it was so long ago. We're talking like eight

0:32:42.360 --> 0:32:45.040
<v Speaker 2>oh nine, twenty ten. Somewhere in there at e Duck,

0:32:45.640 --> 0:32:48.800
<v Speaker 2>which was part of the Scout community when scout dot

0:32:48.800 --> 0:32:53.520
<v Speaker 2>com was a thing. But that's I did look up

0:32:53.600 --> 0:32:57.160
<v Speaker 2>your handle, your chosen handle today on Google to see

0:32:57.400 --> 0:33:00.480
<v Speaker 2>there's nothing that exciting now in terms of Google results.

0:33:00.840 --> 0:33:03.680
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, I am quite familiar, That's what I'm saying.

0:33:04.080 --> 0:33:09.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I was part of two at one point three

0:33:10.080 --> 0:33:12.640
<v Speaker 1>and now only just one, which I can't say more

0:33:12.680 --> 0:33:17.360
<v Speaker 1>about either. O'h look at you. But I understand the

0:33:17.400 --> 0:33:19.360
<v Speaker 1>ecosystem well. I think in order to be a true

0:33:19.400 --> 0:33:22.120
<v Speaker 1>college football fan, I wouldn't suggest you go out there

0:33:22.160 --> 0:33:24.000
<v Speaker 1>and start posting, but you at least need to understand

0:33:24.040 --> 0:33:29.160
<v Speaker 1>that this is a pretty good hotbed for strange opinions

0:33:29.160 --> 0:33:32.680
<v Speaker 1>and strange takes. As it relates to individual teams in

0:33:32.720 --> 0:33:34.280
<v Speaker 1>college football, we'll.

0:33:34.160 --> 0:33:37.440
<v Speaker 2>Get into it. Isn't it amazing though, that you think

0:33:37.440 --> 0:33:44.800
<v Speaker 2>about every single advance in web technology, every single podcasting videos,

0:33:45.240 --> 0:33:47.719
<v Speaker 2>any sort of language. I don't know what Python is,

0:33:47.800 --> 0:33:51.320
<v Speaker 2>I have no clue, but there's different languages, there's different

0:33:51.320 --> 0:33:55.680
<v Speaker 2>ways of conveying information, different social media platforms. But if

0:33:55.680 --> 0:33:57.880
<v Speaker 2>you want to make a good amount of money in

0:33:57.920 --> 0:34:01.000
<v Speaker 2>college football, there are like three and a half ways,

0:34:01.400 --> 0:34:05.000
<v Speaker 2>and one of which is by running a very successful

0:34:05.160 --> 0:34:10.000
<v Speaker 2>paywalled message board site. Correct and this is technology from

0:34:10.239 --> 0:34:14.680
<v Speaker 2>late nineties, Like this is not crazy advanced web technology,

0:34:15.160 --> 0:34:19.120
<v Speaker 2>and yet the appeal for people to spend money is

0:34:19.160 --> 0:34:25.120
<v Speaker 2>to collectively as a community, guess about recruiting that Like,

0:34:25.360 --> 0:34:27.879
<v Speaker 2>you can be a former player who makes a ton

0:34:27.880 --> 0:34:30.600
<v Speaker 2>of money on TV or the radio. You can run

0:34:30.640 --> 0:34:33.480
<v Speaker 2>a message board, or you can be like Bryce Young.

0:34:33.719 --> 0:34:36.600
<v Speaker 2>Those those are your options right now to make a

0:34:36.640 --> 0:34:39.600
<v Speaker 2>bunch of money in college football. And so I mean

0:34:39.719 --> 0:34:41.759
<v Speaker 2>good for the people who have been able to like

0:34:41.840 --> 0:34:45.759
<v Speaker 2>sustain this, because really this is the move. Like we

0:34:45.840 --> 0:34:47.799
<v Speaker 2>know people who run these sites that have a lot

0:34:47.840 --> 0:34:50.759
<v Speaker 2>of subscriber to do we do. There's some cash in it.

0:34:51.040 --> 0:34:54.120
<v Speaker 2>There's absolutely some cash in it. So listen, I tip

0:34:54.160 --> 0:34:57.359
<v Speaker 2>my cap. And it's one of the ongoing surprises of

0:34:57.440 --> 0:35:01.279
<v Speaker 2>the Internet and sports that this is just hand over

0:35:01.360 --> 0:35:03.200
<v Speaker 2>fist if you're doing it right for the right team.

0:35:03.400 --> 0:35:07.880
<v Speaker 1>It is very much in the broad stroke of the

0:35:07.920 --> 0:35:13.240
<v Speaker 1>Internet as analog as it gets. But alas message boards

0:35:13.360 --> 0:35:15.000
<v Speaker 1>have persisted.

0:35:14.960 --> 0:35:20.439
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, over the years, the cockroaches of this current apocalypse.

0:35:21.840 --> 0:35:24.200
<v Speaker 2>I want to call reference to this suite.

0:35:25.200 --> 0:35:30.319
<v Speaker 1>Okay, hit may this tweet that was posted back on

0:35:30.800 --> 0:35:35.240
<v Speaker 1>January the twelfth. It looks like this one was found

0:35:35.320 --> 0:35:40.560
<v Speaker 1>over at eleven Warriors. Oh, shout out Ramsey, Shout out Ramsey,

0:35:40.600 --> 0:35:44.000
<v Speaker 1>great Ohio State site. Okay, what is what is the

0:35:44.120 --> 0:35:47.280
<v Speaker 1>what is the message? I have a new conspiracy theory.

0:35:49.200 --> 0:35:53.239
<v Speaker 1>Nick Saban and Dion Sanders are in multiple ATHLAC commercials

0:35:53.280 --> 0:35:57.520
<v Speaker 1>together more than likely with connected agents. Uh huh. I

0:35:57.680 --> 0:36:03.120
<v Speaker 1>say that Nick Saban is endorsing Jackson State to top

0:36:03.160 --> 0:36:07.720
<v Speaker 1>recruits as an alternative to signing with Bama. Why Jackson

0:36:07.719 --> 0:36:10.280
<v Speaker 1>State becomes a farm team for Bama to poach second

0:36:10.320 --> 0:36:14.000
<v Speaker 1>to third year players when needed, plus any academic and

0:36:14.080 --> 0:36:17.200
<v Speaker 1>personal issues get worked out by Jackson State. Simply put,

0:36:17.239 --> 0:36:22.600
<v Speaker 1>Saban gets first DIBs on the JSU transfers and might

0:36:22.640 --> 0:36:25.120
<v Speaker 1>be able to request them to happen.

0:36:26.400 --> 0:36:31.080
<v Speaker 2>First of all, obviously not true. I love this energy here.

0:36:31.120 --> 0:36:35.800
<v Speaker 2>This is a energy message board. Energy. This is great.

0:36:35.880 --> 0:36:39.080
<v Speaker 2>This is great. Where there's no evidence, there's no logic,

0:36:39.400 --> 0:36:42.680
<v Speaker 2>But at the same time, I can connect some dots

0:36:42.800 --> 0:36:45.719
<v Speaker 2>in my head where I'm like, I love where this

0:36:45.760 --> 0:36:48.680
<v Speaker 2>guy's head is at. Like it makes no sense, but

0:36:48.719 --> 0:36:50.919
<v Speaker 2>I just love where this guy or gal's head is at.

0:36:51.000 --> 0:36:53.359
<v Speaker 2>So I'm for this theory. Ty.

0:36:53.800 --> 0:36:55.760
<v Speaker 1>Do you remember we had Joel klad on the show,

0:36:56.320 --> 0:36:59.839
<v Speaker 1>and sure, and we called out that we had heard

0:36:59.840 --> 0:37:04.160
<v Speaker 1>from some folks that he may fashion himself a weird

0:37:04.160 --> 0:37:07.920
<v Speaker 1>college football conspiracy theorist on a few select topics. This

0:37:07.960 --> 0:37:09.239
<v Speaker 1>feels like a Platt type of thing.

0:37:09.400 --> 0:37:14.839
<v Speaker 2>You think Joel Klatt believes or potentially believes that Nick

0:37:14.920 --> 0:37:19.279
<v Speaker 2>Saban is steering top recruits to Jackson State based on

0:37:19.320 --> 0:37:22.560
<v Speaker 2>the fun he has with Deon Sanders filming commercials.

0:37:23.360 --> 0:37:26.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying it's a possibility.

0:37:26.400 --> 0:37:29.959
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I have no evidence otherwise, so I will say

0:37:30.000 --> 0:37:33.920
<v Speaker 2>I love your energy in theorizing that Joel Clatt may

0:37:33.960 --> 0:37:38.040
<v Speaker 2>buy into this theory. By the way, messageboard geniuses ranked

0:37:38.080 --> 0:37:41.160
<v Speaker 2>their top sites, and I think textags the legendary Texas

0:37:41.200 --> 0:37:44.719
<v Speaker 2>A and M site ran away with just in perusing

0:37:45.360 --> 0:37:48.319
<v Speaker 2>like there should be some sort of textags and maybe

0:37:48.320 --> 0:37:51.080
<v Speaker 2>this already exists, like a convention of some kind, like

0:37:51.120 --> 0:37:53.359
<v Speaker 2>a meeting of the minds, like in the way that

0:37:53.600 --> 0:37:57.880
<v Speaker 2>we have these international symposiums, whereas a politicians, well no,

0:37:58.080 --> 0:38:01.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm saying, like Davos, yea, all like the world leaders

0:38:01.400 --> 0:38:05.440
<v Speaker 2>and like billionaires come together, like how can we enrich

0:38:05.520 --> 0:38:09.200
<v Speaker 2>the world? Like I think the top posters at textags

0:38:09.200 --> 0:38:12.759
<v Speaker 2>should be meeting up in some sort of symposium. I

0:38:12.800 --> 0:38:16.480
<v Speaker 2>love this idea, Like, here's one staff. Will we get

0:38:16.520 --> 0:38:19.759
<v Speaker 2>any more commitments before the December tenth weekend? This is

0:38:19.800 --> 0:38:22.719
<v Speaker 2>from ourtp Aggie. My wife is trying to plan her

0:38:22.719 --> 0:38:25.120
<v Speaker 2>schedule for the month. She likes to know which nights

0:38:25.160 --> 0:38:27.319
<v Speaker 2>we're getting a commitment, so she knows when I will

0:38:27.360 --> 0:38:31.400
<v Speaker 2>not be quote available for her on those nights. I

0:38:31.520 --> 0:38:35.719
<v Speaker 2>know y'all understand. I don't know if I do, but

0:38:35.840 --> 0:38:39.120
<v Speaker 2>I would love to learn more. Is he talking about

0:38:40.360 --> 0:38:43.319
<v Speaker 2>adventures romantically? Is he talking about like just helping out

0:38:43.320 --> 0:38:45.600
<v Speaker 2>around the house because he's going to be too ensconced

0:38:45.600 --> 0:38:48.960
<v Speaker 2>in the message board, in textags, learning about this new commitment,

0:38:49.040 --> 0:38:52.200
<v Speaker 2>watching tape, forming opinions about how this new commitment will

0:38:52.239 --> 0:38:54.600
<v Speaker 2>be involved in the depth chart and what his ceiling

0:38:54.600 --> 0:38:57.319
<v Speaker 2>will be for the aggies. I would love to know

0:38:57.400 --> 0:39:00.759
<v Speaker 2>all of these things. And you know what, as we

0:39:00.840 --> 0:39:04.960
<v Speaker 2>have both learned as married dudes, it's really good to

0:39:05.040 --> 0:39:07.439
<v Speaker 2>give advanced warning when we have plans. Yeah.

0:39:07.480 --> 0:39:10.319
<v Speaker 1>I think this is a thoughtful post. I think it's great.

0:39:10.480 --> 0:39:11.680
<v Speaker 2>I think it's it's thoughtful.

0:39:11.840 --> 0:39:14.000
<v Speaker 1>Do you have any friends who have gone down the

0:39:14.000 --> 0:39:20.279
<v Speaker 1>recruiting rabbit? Hole with Oregon specifically, Ah, I have a

0:39:20.320 --> 0:39:23.319
<v Speaker 1>friend who did I have a friend who with Notre Dame,

0:39:23.320 --> 0:39:26.319
<v Speaker 1>with Penn State. I'm not gonna say, okay, but you

0:39:26.360 --> 0:39:29.239
<v Speaker 1>have a friend who like has quote unquote sources and

0:39:29.400 --> 0:39:31.960
<v Speaker 1>is like deeply in that world. He doesn't have sources,

0:39:31.960 --> 0:39:34.480
<v Speaker 1>but he's very deep into this world. Okay, and he

0:39:34.480 --> 0:39:37.640
<v Speaker 1>may or may not have tweeted at recruits on multiple occasions.

0:39:37.680 --> 0:39:38.319
<v Speaker 2>We found it.

0:39:38.400 --> 0:39:40.560
<v Speaker 1>We didn't know as a larger group of friends how

0:39:40.600 --> 0:39:45.480
<v Speaker 1>to how to address this subject with this gentleman. Is

0:39:45.520 --> 0:39:46.720
<v Speaker 1>an intervention required?

0:39:46.760 --> 0:39:50.600
<v Speaker 2>What do we do if if somebody was going to games,

0:39:50.600 --> 0:39:52.200
<v Speaker 2>the high school games, not going.

0:39:52.280 --> 0:39:53.759
<v Speaker 1>Not going to high school games. He's got kid, that's

0:39:53.800 --> 0:39:56.920
<v Speaker 1>a level, man, that's a level. Definitely was following progress

0:39:56.960 --> 0:40:02.160
<v Speaker 1>throughout high school games, but not actually at the games physically. Okay.

0:40:02.160 --> 0:40:05.360
<v Speaker 2>This is definitely a vibe, definitely a vibe.

0:40:05.120 --> 0:40:07.640
<v Speaker 1>To be that integ It is great that you're altering

0:40:07.640 --> 0:40:08.440
<v Speaker 1>the schedule like that.

0:40:09.040 --> 0:40:10.120
<v Speaker 2>Uh, it's thoughtful.

0:40:10.239 --> 0:40:13.160
<v Speaker 1>It is overpoort, it's let's be real, it's a little much,

0:40:14.120 --> 0:40:15.759
<v Speaker 1>but I appreciate the commitment to the bit.

0:40:16.680 --> 0:40:20.840
<v Speaker 2>I like that it potentially is about him spending romantic

0:40:20.880 --> 0:40:24.359
<v Speaker 2>time with his wife that he is he is such

0:40:24.400 --> 0:40:27.400
<v Speaker 2>a force of nature that his wife needs to know

0:40:27.480 --> 0:40:32.560
<v Speaker 2>in advance when he's a fail, that she is like, Okay,

0:40:32.880 --> 0:40:35.080
<v Speaker 2>I have to prepare, I have to get ready for

0:40:35.120 --> 0:40:39.360
<v Speaker 2>this kind of thing. Yeah, I remember the intro. I

0:40:39.400 --> 0:40:42.879
<v Speaker 2>don't think this guy was like super involved, like down

0:40:42.960 --> 0:40:45.400
<v Speaker 2>deep in the wormhole. But I remember around two thousand

0:40:45.400 --> 0:40:49.160
<v Speaker 2>and two maybe he attended USC. A friend from high

0:40:49.160 --> 0:40:51.680
<v Speaker 2>school and he told me he was really excited because

0:40:51.920 --> 0:40:55.120
<v Speaker 2>like a five star offensive lineman was coming to USC Okay,

0:40:55.160 --> 0:40:58.799
<v Speaker 2>And my first thought was, wait, how do you know.

0:40:59.600 --> 0:41:02.560
<v Speaker 2>Isn't there just some big reveal who the new freshmen

0:41:02.640 --> 0:41:04.960
<v Speaker 2>are going to be? How would anybody know in advance

0:41:05.360 --> 0:41:08.160
<v Speaker 2>who an incoming? And I think it was Jeff Byers,

0:41:08.239 --> 0:41:11.279
<v Speaker 2>I want to say, an offensive lineman from I believe, Colorado.

0:41:11.760 --> 0:41:15.800
<v Speaker 2>But that was my first approach to college football recruiting,

0:41:15.840 --> 0:41:20.120
<v Speaker 2>being a thing like what he's got this intel and

0:41:20.160 --> 0:41:22.120
<v Speaker 2>then it just you know, went from there. And I

0:41:22.160 --> 0:41:23.160
<v Speaker 2>was in college at the time.

0:41:23.360 --> 0:41:24.280
<v Speaker 1>I had no idea.

0:41:24.360 --> 0:41:27.760
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, I know some people who've gotten pretty pretty

0:41:27.760 --> 0:41:32.799
<v Speaker 2>deep into it, but nothing on the level of this

0:41:32.920 --> 0:41:35.759
<v Speaker 2>post or attending high school games. What is your next message?

0:41:35.800 --> 0:41:39.719
<v Speaker 1>My next message kind of akin to the wife and

0:41:39.760 --> 0:41:42.279
<v Speaker 1>being prepared. This is just a weird one from a

0:41:42.360 --> 0:41:45.279
<v Speaker 1>Virginia tech fan who says, quote can tell from those

0:41:45.320 --> 0:41:48.319
<v Speaker 1>snug jeans referring to Brent pry that the dude's got

0:41:48.320 --> 0:41:51.520
<v Speaker 1>a hog. So mm of course sure, uh huh. No,

0:41:51.719 --> 0:41:55.239
<v Speaker 1>My actual one is a post from a Georgia fan.

0:41:55.560 --> 0:41:57.560
<v Speaker 1>Do you not want to talk about the Virginia tech fan?

0:41:58.600 --> 0:42:00.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I don't really much to add.

0:42:01.800 --> 0:42:04.120
<v Speaker 2>Well, no, I'm not asking you to add to that

0:42:04.280 --> 0:42:06.480
<v Speaker 2>specific visual in that thought.

0:42:06.600 --> 0:42:08.880
<v Speaker 1>But okay, the question is a.

0:42:10.760 --> 0:42:14.360
<v Speaker 2>Hold on indulge me. It's almost February. The question is

0:42:14.920 --> 0:42:18.160
<v Speaker 2>this Virginia tech fan is looking at Brent priz'e snug

0:42:18.280 --> 0:42:20.839
<v Speaker 2>we said jeans pants whatever, he's wearing jeans and said

0:42:20.840 --> 0:42:23.000
<v Speaker 2>he's got a huge hog, which great, good for him,

0:42:23.160 --> 0:42:27.040
<v Speaker 2>whether it's true or not. What is the extrapolation, like,

0:42:27.040 --> 0:42:31.239
<v Speaker 2>what is the cowherd level thinking? Okay, this is who

0:42:31.280 --> 0:42:33.480
<v Speaker 2>Brent Priye is physically, this is what it means, Like

0:42:33.520 --> 0:42:35.560
<v Speaker 2>he's going to go for it on more fourth downs,

0:42:36.320 --> 0:42:39.200
<v Speaker 2>He's going to be more aggressive, He's going to have

0:42:39.320 --> 0:42:42.799
<v Speaker 2>more testosterone about his work, like he is going to

0:42:42.840 --> 0:42:46.560
<v Speaker 2>have more confidence as a recruiter wearing these types of pants, Like,

0:42:46.640 --> 0:42:48.680
<v Speaker 2>what is the cowhard level extrapolation.

0:42:49.239 --> 0:42:51.319
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you're the one wearing the tinfoil hat. I

0:42:51.320 --> 0:42:55.960
<v Speaker 1>am wearing the tinfoilhut. I guess the extrapolation is that observation,

0:42:56.160 --> 0:42:57.960
<v Speaker 1>combined with the fact that he's got a very strong

0:42:58.040 --> 0:43:02.560
<v Speaker 1>hairline his te levels may lead to the conclusion that

0:43:02.600 --> 0:43:07.279
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of masculinity there. Of course, perhaps that

0:43:07.320 --> 0:43:09.560
<v Speaker 1>will in some way drive the Virginia Tech program forward.

0:43:09.600 --> 0:43:11.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, I'm making this up on the float.

0:43:11.400 --> 0:43:14.799
<v Speaker 2>I'm just wondering what the excitement is around that as

0:43:14.800 --> 0:43:17.880
<v Speaker 2>it relates, or it's just an observation, or just like

0:43:17.920 --> 0:43:19.600
<v Speaker 2>we got to get to know this new guy. Here's

0:43:19.640 --> 0:43:22.760
<v Speaker 2>some facts about Brent Prye has called really good defenses

0:43:22.760 --> 0:43:25.400
<v Speaker 2>at Penn State, has a history in the mid Atlantic region,

0:43:26.160 --> 0:43:28.160
<v Speaker 2>can walk into a room and impress you depending on

0:43:28.200 --> 0:43:31.880
<v Speaker 2>the tightness of his pants. Like, I don't know, I

0:43:31.960 --> 0:43:34.160
<v Speaker 2>love again love the energy here.

0:43:34.400 --> 0:43:36.560
<v Speaker 1>Let me go over to ugussports dot com. This is

0:43:36.560 --> 0:43:39.319
<v Speaker 1>about Stetson Bennett and I saw this and I was like,

0:43:40.360 --> 0:43:45.160
<v Speaker 1>that's funny. I kind of get it. Quote I love

0:43:45.239 --> 0:43:49.840
<v Speaker 1>the kid, and he was forever be a champion. Not

0:43:49.920 --> 0:43:53.600
<v Speaker 1>great grammar, but our defense just carried this team to

0:43:53.640 --> 0:43:56.080
<v Speaker 1>a national championship. Next year, our offense will have to

0:43:56.080 --> 0:43:58.799
<v Speaker 1>be far more dynamic as a defense reloads, and we

0:43:58.840 --> 0:44:01.399
<v Speaker 1>all know Stetson and it isn't the guy to make

0:44:01.440 --> 0:44:06.239
<v Speaker 1>that happen. For his sake and for our programs, I

0:44:06.239 --> 0:44:09.080
<v Speaker 1>hope he rides off into the sunset. It's time to

0:44:09.120 --> 0:44:12.880
<v Speaker 1>see what one of the young guys can do. I

0:44:12.920 --> 0:44:18.080
<v Speaker 1>don't hate this general conspiracy, but yeah, I don't hate

0:44:18.120 --> 0:44:23.320
<v Speaker 1>the sentiment because look, stets and Bennet got better. Stets

0:44:23.320 --> 0:44:26.040
<v Speaker 1>and Bennett won a national championship. Stets and Bennett was.

0:44:26.000 --> 0:44:29.239
<v Speaker 2>Good in this game. Yes, uh, he finished it well.

0:44:29.280 --> 0:44:32.200
<v Speaker 1>Finished first three quarters I would say were pretty dicey.

0:44:32.280 --> 0:44:35.840
<v Speaker 1>Finished it well, but got the job done. Definitely improved

0:44:35.840 --> 0:44:39.000
<v Speaker 1>from last year this year. I understand where this is

0:44:39.040 --> 0:44:41.880
<v Speaker 1>coming from. This is coming from the same place that

0:44:41.960 --> 0:44:45.240
<v Speaker 1>my Ian book sentiment came from a year ago, which

0:44:45.320 --> 0:44:47.439
<v Speaker 1>is he's good, he's great, he won a lot of games,

0:44:47.440 --> 0:44:49.359
<v Speaker 1>in this case, won a national championship, and never gonna

0:44:49.360 --> 0:44:51.320
<v Speaker 1>be able to take that away from him. There is

0:44:51.360 --> 0:44:54.480
<v Speaker 1>a very clear ceiling. Mm hmm. There's a very clear ceiling.

0:44:54.760 --> 0:44:56.799
<v Speaker 1>So if you're a Georgia fan, and if you're looking

0:44:56.800 --> 0:44:59.279
<v Speaker 1>at the recruiting class, and if you've got you know,

0:44:59.160 --> 0:45:02.279
<v Speaker 1>a brock and like all these guys coming in, I

0:45:02.400 --> 0:45:05.880
<v Speaker 1>understand wanting to know, would somebody else give us a

0:45:05.920 --> 0:45:10.600
<v Speaker 1>higher ceiling on offense because clearly that's the area where

0:45:10.600 --> 0:45:14.440
<v Speaker 1>Georgia needs to improve next seme, So I get it,

0:45:15.160 --> 0:45:17.280
<v Speaker 1>I get it. I would also say, maybe take.

0:45:17.120 --> 0:45:19.600
<v Speaker 2>A beat to enjoy that you won the national championship.

0:45:19.920 --> 0:45:22.400
<v Speaker 1>Now I love this, turn the page.

0:45:22.040 --> 0:45:25.200
<v Speaker 2>But it's always about the next game. What are we

0:45:25.200 --> 0:45:26.759
<v Speaker 2>going to do next? This is what sport are we

0:45:26.800 --> 0:45:27.520
<v Speaker 2>talking about here?

0:45:27.560 --> 0:45:31.560
<v Speaker 1>Ty? So from that standpoint, I'm wearing the hat. Maybe

0:45:31.600 --> 0:45:34.439
<v Speaker 1>it's getting into my brain, but I understand the logic here.

0:45:34.800 --> 0:45:36.279
<v Speaker 1>I'm okay with I'm totally with it.

0:45:36.680 --> 0:45:39.839
<v Speaker 2>I don't necessarily agree with it, but I appreciate it

0:45:39.960 --> 0:45:44.120
<v Speaker 2>because this is like college football distilled into a series

0:45:44.120 --> 0:45:48.760
<v Speaker 2>of letters and spaces that sure, this guy did something

0:45:48.800 --> 0:45:51.840
<v Speaker 2>that no modern quarterback has done in forty years for

0:45:51.880 --> 0:45:54.280
<v Speaker 2>our program, surrounded by great talent, with a great defense,

0:45:54.280 --> 0:45:56.840
<v Speaker 2>et cetera, et cetera. But the argument could also be

0:45:56.920 --> 0:46:00.480
<v Speaker 2>made that Stetson Bennett was much more consistently good than

0:46:00.520 --> 0:46:03.759
<v Speaker 2>any other modern Georgia quarterback, Like he didn't throw in

0:46:03.840 --> 0:46:06.560
<v Speaker 2>the sheer number of dud games that guys like Matt

0:46:06.560 --> 0:46:09.480
<v Speaker 2>Stafford or Aaron Murray or whoever Jake from Jake Eason

0:46:09.840 --> 0:46:14.080
<v Speaker 2>threw in as starters at at Georgia. But at the

0:46:14.080 --> 0:46:16.920
<v Speaker 2>same time you're seduced by the what if you're seduced

0:46:16.960 --> 0:46:19.200
<v Speaker 2>by the future. You know what you have in Stetson Bennett.

0:46:19.400 --> 0:46:22.120
<v Speaker 2>You don't know what you have in like Brock vandergriff

0:46:22.160 --> 0:46:24.960
<v Speaker 2>or whoever the next guy is for Georgia. And so

0:46:25.960 --> 0:46:28.359
<v Speaker 2>I'm okay with this. I don't think it's insane at all.

0:46:28.600 --> 0:46:30.759
<v Speaker 2>I think it's consistent with what we what we know

0:46:30.800 --> 0:46:34.879
<v Speaker 2>about the sport, so I appreciate it with it Red

0:46:35.000 --> 0:46:40.200
<v Speaker 2>Raidersports dot Com from Reckham four thirty two, my cousin

0:46:40.280 --> 0:46:43.480
<v Speaker 2>sells weed in Southlake, a very nice area of Austin,

0:46:43.960 --> 0:46:47.200
<v Speaker 2>and he said Quinn and his buddy Brady Boyd wide

0:46:47.239 --> 0:46:50.719
<v Speaker 2>receiver at Minnesota are one hundred percent confirmed to the

0:46:50.760 --> 0:46:53.640
<v Speaker 2>eight oh six. The eight oh six area code, just

0:46:53.680 --> 0:46:58.640
<v Speaker 2>to be clear, appears to be Northwest Texas where Lubbock

0:46:58.760 --> 0:47:02.080
<v Speaker 2>is hand in South Plains, including the cities of Amarillo

0:47:02.160 --> 0:47:07.120
<v Speaker 2>and Lubbock. Quen You weres not signed sealed delivered to

0:47:07.440 --> 0:47:12.080
<v Speaker 2>Texas Tech. Correct that that's per my latest understanding of

0:47:12.120 --> 0:47:12.480
<v Speaker 2>the portal.

0:47:12.560 --> 0:47:12.759
<v Speaker 1>Yes.

0:47:13.520 --> 0:47:16.600
<v Speaker 2>Now, I don't know if you have rankings in terms

0:47:16.600 --> 0:47:23.200
<v Speaker 2>of like here are the trustworthy sources? Is a weed

0:47:23.239 --> 0:47:28.279
<v Speaker 2>dealer top five, top ten? Because some people are going

0:47:28.320 --> 0:47:30.160
<v Speaker 2>to know there are always going to be whispers out

0:47:30.160 --> 0:47:35.640
<v Speaker 2>there that like Bruce Feldman or Nicole Auerback or Pete

0:47:35.640 --> 0:47:38.239
<v Speaker 2>Fammel are not hip too. We're always going to have

0:47:38.400 --> 0:47:40.640
<v Speaker 2>those people who know well in advance. This guy failed

0:47:40.680 --> 0:47:43.120
<v Speaker 2>the drug test, this guy's flunking out of school, this

0:47:43.160 --> 0:47:46.040
<v Speaker 2>guy's transferring, this guy hates the coach, this guy's dad

0:47:46.080 --> 0:47:48.040
<v Speaker 2>hates the coach. Whatever, there's always going to be like

0:47:48.080 --> 0:47:50.759
<v Speaker 2>and those are correct. Those are good sources with good information.

0:47:52.640 --> 0:47:55.960
<v Speaker 2>I would just like to figure out how trustworthy a

0:47:55.960 --> 0:47:59.879
<v Speaker 2>weed dealer, because if said weed dealer is the weed

0:48:00.080 --> 0:48:05.040
<v Speaker 2>dealer of people within the program and they trust him

0:48:05.160 --> 0:48:08.880
<v Speaker 2>or her for whatever reason with transfer information or like

0:48:08.920 --> 0:48:14.840
<v Speaker 2>this guy's coming, that's pretty cool. Didn't work out in

0:48:14.880 --> 0:48:19.319
<v Speaker 2>this scenario. This dealer is oh for something, But.

0:48:20.840 --> 0:48:21.279
<v Speaker 1>I don't know.

0:48:21.360 --> 0:48:26.360
<v Speaker 2>I like that this poster is has hit the streets

0:48:26.880 --> 0:48:30.200
<v Speaker 2>in terms of figuring out where the murmurs and whispers

0:48:31.000 --> 0:48:36.400
<v Speaker 2>is sharing that pounding the pavement. A Woodward Bernstein of

0:48:36.480 --> 0:48:41.080
<v Speaker 2>the message board generation, I'm good with it. It didn't

0:48:41.080 --> 0:48:43.200
<v Speaker 2>work out, but he took a shot.

0:48:43.320 --> 0:48:43.799
<v Speaker 1>He took a.

0:48:43.760 --> 0:48:46.439
<v Speaker 2>Shot and sharing some intel that didn't work out. Still

0:48:46.480 --> 0:48:47.000
<v Speaker 2>good with it.

0:48:48.120 --> 0:48:56.279
<v Speaker 1>Here's one from the Michigan faithful Dan. Yeah, Michigan came

0:48:56.320 --> 0:48:59.520
<v Speaker 1>in flat happy to be there. I think he's talking

0:48:59.520 --> 0:49:02.560
<v Speaker 1>about the play off, bad game plan, poor adjustments in

0:49:02.600 --> 0:49:05.960
<v Speaker 1>the game, just got away, good season, but Michigan should

0:49:05.960 --> 0:49:09.200
<v Speaker 1>be playing Bama for the title. Mm hmm. All these

0:49:09.239 --> 0:49:13.120
<v Speaker 1>analysts is garbage about Michigan getting a taste of elite.

0:49:13.239 --> 0:49:14.640
<v Speaker 2>Nope, too bad.

0:49:14.840 --> 0:49:17.919
<v Speaker 1>Hopefully next time they are better prepared. The implication here

0:49:18.040 --> 0:49:21.800
<v Speaker 1>is that Georgia is still a second fiddle to Michigan,

0:49:21.800 --> 0:49:25.120
<v Speaker 1>that Michigan is better than the Dragon Bulldogs, despite the

0:49:25.160 --> 0:49:28.600
<v Speaker 1>fact that this. We watched that game, so this.

0:49:28.520 --> 0:49:33.040
<v Speaker 2>Can happen, right, and Bill Connolly has a metric about

0:49:33.200 --> 0:49:37.840
<v Speaker 2>second order wins where there are games in which because

0:49:37.840 --> 0:49:41.760
<v Speaker 2>of weird occurrences or maybe that's you know, freak freak

0:49:41.840 --> 0:49:44.320
<v Speaker 2>injuries or whatever where it's just like, man, this team

0:49:44.920 --> 0:49:47.080
<v Speaker 2>looks like they should have won. They seem to have

0:49:47.160 --> 0:49:50.640
<v Speaker 2>dominated the game. But whether it was special teams miscues

0:49:50.719 --> 0:49:55.040
<v Speaker 2>or a couple uncharacteristic explosion plays, whatever, this other team won.

0:49:56.680 --> 0:49:59.160
<v Speaker 2>Was there any part of you after watching Michigan Georgia

0:49:59.239 --> 0:50:03.399
<v Speaker 2>that no, you that you sat back and said, man,

0:50:03.640 --> 0:50:06.319
<v Speaker 2>I just I think Georgia was smoking mirrors there?

0:50:06.560 --> 0:50:11.680
<v Speaker 1>No, No, this is a very common message board posting.

0:50:11.719 --> 0:50:14.640
<v Speaker 2>By the way, we were the better team. Yeah, yeah,

0:50:14.719 --> 0:50:18.680
<v Speaker 2>of course, very common. I can't get on board with this.

0:50:18.800 --> 0:50:18.880
<v Speaker 1>No.

0:50:19.000 --> 0:50:21.960
<v Speaker 2>I appreciate the attempt, and I think it can apply

0:50:22.680 --> 0:50:27.120
<v Speaker 2>to certain matchups. I'm not I'm not in this, not

0:50:27.239 --> 0:50:28.000
<v Speaker 2>in this situation.

0:50:29.400 --> 0:50:29.520
<v Speaker 1>Uh.

0:50:29.920 --> 0:50:33.200
<v Speaker 2>This is from seventy three, really seventy three on horns

0:50:33.200 --> 0:50:36.360
<v Speaker 2>two four seven. If you're on the board anywhere, PK

0:50:36.880 --> 0:50:41.240
<v Speaker 2>Pete Kwitkowski, defensive coordinator, Texas. I'll be at Austin this week.

0:50:41.600 --> 0:50:45.839
<v Speaker 2>Let's blanking throw down. If I win, you get the

0:50:45.880 --> 0:50:48.160
<v Speaker 2>blank out of Texas and go back to the West Coast.

0:50:48.320 --> 0:50:51.080
<v Speaker 2>If you win, you can stay and quote coach, you're

0:50:51.120 --> 0:50:55.839
<v Speaker 2>bleeping too high safety defense spoiler alerts. I'm gonna kick

0:50:56.520 --> 0:50:58.200
<v Speaker 2>your bleep bleep.

0:50:58.360 --> 0:51:01.399
<v Speaker 1>You. Let's settle this like Men by the Bleachers made

0:51:01.400 --> 0:51:02.680
<v Speaker 1>in Temecula. Yeah.

0:51:02.880 --> 0:51:08.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. So should more coaching decisions come down to whether

0:51:08.719 --> 0:51:13.080
<v Speaker 2>or not a coordinator can defeat a specific message board poster.

0:51:13.800 --> 0:51:17.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm not totally against it its content.

0:51:17.640 --> 0:51:22.080
<v Speaker 2>Should the more savvy coaches out there, assistants, head coaches

0:51:22.160 --> 0:51:27.960
<v Speaker 2>or whatever, do anonymous town halls with message boards so

0:51:28.120 --> 0:51:32.040
<v Speaker 2>Pete Pitkowski would at least be offered a chance to

0:51:32.160 --> 0:51:37.240
<v Speaker 2>respond to seventy three really seventy three and perhaps reveal

0:51:37.320 --> 0:51:41.560
<v Speaker 2>his own martial arts background or fighting background so that

0:51:41.680 --> 0:51:44.280
<v Speaker 2>everybody could know. And I'm not saying they should settle

0:51:44.280 --> 0:51:46.920
<v Speaker 2>it this way, like I don't think scheme decisions should

0:51:46.960 --> 0:51:51.040
<v Speaker 2>be based on an ability to defeat a message board

0:51:51.080 --> 0:51:53.719
<v Speaker 2>poster in hand to hand combat. I don't, but I

0:51:53.719 --> 0:51:57.560
<v Speaker 2>think there should be considerations. I think that if it's

0:51:57.600 --> 0:52:00.440
<v Speaker 2>decided that we know about the background, the fighting background

0:52:00.440 --> 0:52:02.360
<v Speaker 2>is seventy three, and we learned about the fighting background

0:52:02.360 --> 0:52:03.920
<v Speaker 2>of Pete Kwakowski, I don't think.

0:52:03.760 --> 0:52:04.359
<v Speaker 1>They should fight.

0:52:04.840 --> 0:52:08.239
<v Speaker 2>But I think if Pete Quickowski knows that he's physically outmanned,

0:52:09.239 --> 0:52:12.479
<v Speaker 2>that he listened to seventy three in this town hall

0:52:12.840 --> 0:52:16.359
<v Speaker 2>and not necessarily implement, but at least listen to his suggestions.

0:52:16.400 --> 0:52:18.600
<v Speaker 2>If he finds out that seventy three is in fact

0:52:19.040 --> 0:52:21.319
<v Speaker 2>a trained killer of some kind, I mean, I guess

0:52:21.360 --> 0:52:23.520
<v Speaker 2>the flip he's going to have to prove his bona fides.

0:52:23.840 --> 0:52:26.240
<v Speaker 2>The flip side would be somebody on an LSU message

0:52:26.239 --> 0:52:30.600
<v Speaker 2>board wanting to fight Coacho, which is a tough beat.

0:52:30.800 --> 0:52:33.759
<v Speaker 2>I don't think you want to fight Coacho. Know don't know.

0:52:34.040 --> 0:52:37.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what his level of training is. I

0:52:37.080 --> 0:52:40.440
<v Speaker 1>have seen his intensity on the sidelines, and we've read

0:52:40.480 --> 0:52:44.080
<v Speaker 1>about his intensity for years. I feel like you only

0:52:44.120 --> 0:52:47.360
<v Speaker 1>post this if you feel like you have a decent chance,

0:52:48.640 --> 0:52:50.319
<v Speaker 1>or at least you shouldn't post it unless you have

0:52:50.320 --> 0:52:51.000
<v Speaker 1>a decent chance.

0:52:51.440 --> 0:52:54.680
<v Speaker 2>Now, let's just assume this lady or gentleman is chemically

0:52:54.719 --> 0:52:58.959
<v Speaker 2>altered and felt especially brave and challenging via message board

0:52:59.000 --> 0:53:02.959
<v Speaker 2>the defensive coordinator to a fight. But at the same time,

0:53:04.200 --> 0:53:06.920
<v Speaker 2>I appreciate the like heads up, like here is when

0:53:06.920 --> 0:53:10.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna be in Austin the assumption that Peklekowski's trolling

0:53:10.200 --> 0:53:12.640
<v Speaker 2>the message board or peakless people are trolling the message board,

0:53:12.920 --> 0:53:16.360
<v Speaker 2>here is my schedule with which you can use the information,

0:53:16.400 --> 0:53:20.120
<v Speaker 2>however you want to set up a fight. Also, I

0:53:20.160 --> 0:53:22.880
<v Speaker 2>don't like that he didn't set up the parameters of

0:53:22.960 --> 0:53:25.960
<v Speaker 2>the fight. Are they boxing? Is it no holds barred?

0:53:26.520 --> 0:53:29.799
<v Speaker 2>What is probably no choice? I think it's I think

0:53:29.800 --> 0:53:32.760
<v Speaker 2>it's bar style fighting. Anything goes, I think so, Yeah,

0:53:32.840 --> 0:53:34.759
<v Speaker 2>eye gouging, nutshots, whatever.

0:53:34.680 --> 0:53:37.959
<v Speaker 1>Is Johnny Cash, it's boy named Sue, it's you know, okay,

0:53:38.040 --> 0:53:39.240
<v Speaker 1>you got the pocket knife?

0:53:39.880 --> 0:53:42.360
<v Speaker 2>Whatever, whatever. I just think he's so organized with like

0:53:42.440 --> 0:53:44.640
<v Speaker 2>letting Pete Kokowski know when he's gonna be in town.

0:53:44.680 --> 0:53:47.040
<v Speaker 2>He might have an idea of like the ideal way

0:53:47.080 --> 0:53:49.239
<v Speaker 2>to fight because he's kind of being a gentleman about

0:53:49.280 --> 0:53:50.359
<v Speaker 2>it in a backwards way.

0:53:50.400 --> 0:53:53.879
<v Speaker 1>Hey, what's our theory on coaches actually reading message boards.

0:53:57.200 --> 0:53:59.680
<v Speaker 2>Of them or their people or family members?

0:53:59.719 --> 0:53:59.799
<v Speaker 1>Do?

0:54:00.120 --> 0:54:04.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? I agree. There is somebody in the the Alabama program,

0:54:04.640 --> 0:54:08.000
<v Speaker 2>in the Clemson program, in the Ohio State program monitoring,

0:54:08.560 --> 0:54:12.279
<v Speaker 2>And I guess this is like a succession reference, like

0:54:12.320 --> 0:54:16.759
<v Speaker 2>they're they're they're monitoring the temperature of the digital fan base.

0:54:17.640 --> 0:54:20.600
<v Speaker 1>It was it was told to me by a mutual

0:54:20.680 --> 0:54:24.879
<v Speaker 1>friend of ours, uh, somebody who who pedals in much

0:54:24.920 --> 0:54:29.120
<v Speaker 1>of these coaching rumors that one hundred percent of the time,

0:54:29.160 --> 0:54:32.080
<v Speaker 1>they know everything being said about them. For as confident

0:54:32.080 --> 0:54:35.319
<v Speaker 1>as they may come across on the surface, they're all

0:54:35.440 --> 0:54:38.720
<v Speaker 1>terribly insecure and know everything that's being said about them always.

0:54:39.200 --> 0:54:43.800
<v Speaker 1>So now just assume that they have people who are monitoring. Yeah, okay,

0:54:43.920 --> 0:54:44.720
<v Speaker 1>what do you have next?

0:54:45.320 --> 0:54:47.240
<v Speaker 2>This is from what is this site?

0:54:47.239 --> 0:54:52.760
<v Speaker 1>This is from a BAMA site Bama Online titled Katie Freakin'

0:54:52.840 --> 0:54:57.839
<v Speaker 1>Perry We are zero and two when she is affiliated

0:54:57.840 --> 0:54:59.880
<v Speaker 1>with one of our games. First all missed. Now this

0:55:00.200 --> 0:55:04.600
<v Speaker 1>please never again. I can get behind this. You know,

0:55:04.719 --> 0:55:05.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm very superstitious.

0:55:06.160 --> 0:55:07.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, this is where that goes.

0:55:07.760 --> 0:55:10.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, this is a tie and this is speaking right

0:55:10.600 --> 0:55:13.279
<v Speaker 1>into the heart of me as a college football fan. Yeah,

0:55:13.320 --> 0:55:16.719
<v Speaker 1>for a long time, I would not pick Notre Dame

0:55:16.760 --> 0:55:18.960
<v Speaker 1>to win on this podcast to cover a point spread.

0:55:19.400 --> 0:55:21.959
<v Speaker 1>I tried the reverse jinks. I quit the day job.

0:55:22.000 --> 0:55:24.160
<v Speaker 1>I decided, Okay, we're gonna start a new chapter. We're

0:55:24.160 --> 0:55:25.799
<v Speaker 1>not gonna do that Notre Dame one eleven and one.

0:55:26.480 --> 0:55:29.799
<v Speaker 1>And I didn't really even think twice about should I

0:55:29.840 --> 0:55:32.680
<v Speaker 1>be picking should I not be picking? Here? I just

0:55:32.719 --> 0:55:34.480
<v Speaker 1>made a full break from it, and it worked out

0:55:34.520 --> 0:55:37.000
<v Speaker 1>okay for me. There are still many other aspects of

0:55:37.040 --> 0:55:40.000
<v Speaker 1>my life where you know, if there's something that maybe

0:55:40.040 --> 0:55:43.080
<v Speaker 1>gives me a little bit of discomfort around the decision,

0:55:43.160 --> 0:55:45.680
<v Speaker 1>if maybe the universe is sending me an odd sign,

0:55:46.160 --> 0:55:49.319
<v Speaker 1>I just kind of cautiously back away from that. I

0:55:49.360 --> 0:55:53.359
<v Speaker 1>appreciate this. I appreciate that they're posting this, and it

0:55:53.360 --> 0:55:54.760
<v Speaker 1>may have been a tongue in cheek post.

0:55:54.960 --> 0:55:55.839
<v Speaker 2>For me, it would have been.

0:55:56.760 --> 0:55:59.279
<v Speaker 1>I have long said that the green jersey games for

0:55:59.320 --> 0:56:01.759
<v Speaker 1>Notre Dame football, even though the numbers don't back me up,

0:56:01.800 --> 0:56:05.399
<v Speaker 1>curse it. Yeah, the green jerseys are cursed. Man, don't

0:56:05.400 --> 0:56:06.400
<v Speaker 1>wear the green jersey.

0:56:06.440 --> 0:56:07.360
<v Speaker 2>I get it's a novelty.

0:56:07.880 --> 0:56:08.399
<v Speaker 1>I get it.

0:56:08.960 --> 0:56:10.279
<v Speaker 2>Stick to what works.

0:56:10.719 --> 0:56:13.320
<v Speaker 1>The current uniforms are working fine. You don't need to

0:56:13.360 --> 0:56:15.960
<v Speaker 1>do the green jersey thing and freak me out. And

0:56:16.000 --> 0:56:19.200
<v Speaker 1>so I appreciate the black cat that is Katy Perry

0:56:19.200 --> 0:56:24.560
<v Speaker 1>here in this case. I appreciate the the anxiety that

0:56:24.640 --> 0:56:27.280
<v Speaker 1>it might provoke among the fan base. This is totally

0:56:27.280 --> 0:56:28.440
<v Speaker 1>something I can get on board with.

0:56:29.960 --> 0:56:33.440
<v Speaker 2>Look if Alabama, he says Alabama, right, the Alabama fan

0:56:33.480 --> 0:56:35.759
<v Speaker 2>base oz and two there she was at the Old

0:56:35.800 --> 0:56:38.120
<v Speaker 2>Miss game and talked about Trevor Knight and all sorts

0:56:38.160 --> 0:56:41.920
<v Speaker 2>of stuff. If they have bad blood with Katie Perry,

0:56:41.920 --> 0:56:43.680
<v Speaker 2>you got to go after the other side of bad blood,

0:56:43.680 --> 0:56:47.000
<v Speaker 2>do you not? You gotta get t Swift on game day,

0:56:47.120 --> 0:56:50.320
<v Speaker 2>be solution oriented. I believe that's who bad Blood is about,

0:56:50.360 --> 0:56:51.359
<v Speaker 2>right it was.

0:56:51.400 --> 0:56:53.480
<v Speaker 1>But then they did a video together and I think

0:56:53.480 --> 0:56:59.600
<v Speaker 1>they buried defenses. Yeah, they buried the hatchet. That's too bad.

0:57:00.000 --> 0:57:02.600
<v Speaker 2>And again I think T Swift lives in Tennessee. I

0:57:02.680 --> 0:57:03.200
<v Speaker 2>think she lives.

0:57:04.080 --> 0:57:05.960
<v Speaker 1>She lives in one day, So does she. You're you've

0:57:06.000 --> 0:57:08.200
<v Speaker 1>been following close than I have. Yeah, that's what I'm

0:57:08.239 --> 0:57:12.160
<v Speaker 1>told for my sources, Okay, but I don't for sure.

0:57:12.560 --> 0:57:17.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Katie Perry's tough man, She's tough, staying power, I

0:57:17.440 --> 0:57:20.720
<v Speaker 2>would say, as we've talked about, Uh, next one I have,

0:57:21.560 --> 0:57:23.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna stick with Texas here because.

0:57:23.240 --> 0:57:25.120
<v Speaker 1>The's just so good.

0:57:25.400 --> 0:57:28.320
<v Speaker 2>Uh. This is from Brazil Horn. I don't know which

0:57:28.360 --> 0:57:30.760
<v Speaker 2>Texas site this is from. It's not on this screen grab.

0:57:31.280 --> 0:57:34.600
<v Speaker 2>I hope Baylor Stadium gets foreclosed on in the Magnolia

0:57:34.760 --> 0:57:37.840
<v Speaker 2>f heads buy it for pennies on the dollar, cover

0:57:37.880 --> 0:57:41.120
<v Speaker 2>it in ship lap, and hang barn doors over the entrances.

0:57:41.480 --> 0:57:44.680
<v Speaker 2>Then make it. This is my word a crappy, but

0:57:44.720 --> 0:57:46.680
<v Speaker 2>you know what, I'm substituting B and B.

0:57:47.800 --> 0:57:52.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, I like that level of intensity.

0:57:52.440 --> 0:57:55.640
<v Speaker 2>Well, it's so specific because the local knowledge is strong, Yeah,

0:57:55.680 --> 0:57:59.120
<v Speaker 2>that they know that this poster brazil Horn, perhaps all

0:57:59.120 --> 0:58:02.959
<v Speaker 2>the way from South Powell is making reference to Chip

0:58:02.960 --> 0:58:04.880
<v Speaker 2>and Joanna. I don't know if I've actually watched the show,

0:58:04.880 --> 0:58:08.360
<v Speaker 2>but I've seen pictures of extras stories about ours fixer upper.

0:58:10.640 --> 0:58:13.640
<v Speaker 2>I have not been in the stadium. I don't know

0:58:13.680 --> 0:58:16.240
<v Speaker 2>whether or not ship lap and barn doors that like

0:58:16.320 --> 0:58:20.120
<v Speaker 2>fake vintage farmhouse look would improve it. It's relatively new,

0:58:20.480 --> 0:58:25.120
<v Speaker 2>but I appreciate the specificity of that kind of message

0:58:25.160 --> 0:58:28.160
<v Speaker 2>board anger, even though it doesn't fully make sense, because

0:58:28.240 --> 0:58:30.160
<v Speaker 2>I think that would only encourage more and more people

0:58:30.160 --> 0:58:33.480
<v Speaker 2>to be excited within the stadium because apparently their store

0:58:33.480 --> 0:58:36.240
<v Speaker 2>in Texas is like the most popular tourist destination in

0:58:36.280 --> 0:58:39.960
<v Speaker 2>the state, right, So that would just get people jumping

0:58:40.000 --> 0:58:42.800
<v Speaker 2>and getting in line for Baylor tickets to make a

0:58:42.840 --> 0:58:47.360
<v Speaker 2>ton of noise in that stadium. So yeah, I appreciate it.

0:58:47.360 --> 0:58:49.720
<v Speaker 2>It's it's sort of off the beaten path as a

0:58:50.200 --> 0:58:53.440
<v Speaker 2>trash talking subject, but I'm good with it. We drove

0:58:53.480 --> 0:58:53.960
<v Speaker 2>past it.

0:58:55.040 --> 0:58:57.960
<v Speaker 1>We drove past it on our journey from Austin up

0:58:57.960 --> 0:59:01.000
<v Speaker 1>to Dallas before one of our life shows a couple

0:59:01.000 --> 0:59:02.760
<v Speaker 1>of years ago. Now it feels like an eternity, you go,

0:59:02.840 --> 0:59:06.040
<v Speaker 1>because we haven't done live shows forever. I thirty five,

0:59:06.120 --> 0:59:08.120
<v Speaker 1>if I want to say correctly, we were driving past it.

0:59:09.160 --> 0:59:12.600
<v Speaker 1>We drove past it in the daylight, and yeah, I

0:59:13.440 --> 0:59:14.520
<v Speaker 1>was not impressed by it.

0:59:14.680 --> 0:59:17.280
<v Speaker 2>From Afar, it did not well, it didn't do much

0:59:17.320 --> 0:59:18.360
<v Speaker 2>for me, but we weren't inside.

0:59:18.360 --> 0:59:20.520
<v Speaker 1>We weren't inside, and people who are who I've been inside,

0:59:20.600 --> 0:59:22.600
<v Speaker 1>say it's it's a fun place to watch a game.

0:59:22.640 --> 0:59:25.200
<v Speaker 1>And I will try to stay objective. I would just

0:59:25.200 --> 0:59:27.840
<v Speaker 1>say from Afar, driving past at like seventy five miles

0:59:27.840 --> 0:59:30.720
<v Speaker 1>an hour, it was it was sort of unspectacular to me.

0:59:32.360 --> 0:59:34.960
<v Speaker 1>That being said that this is a different level of intensity.

0:59:35.720 --> 0:59:38.680
<v Speaker 1>It is, but I like the local knowledge. I think

0:59:38.720 --> 0:59:41.280
<v Speaker 1>if you're going to trash talk a stadium, if you're

0:59:41.280 --> 0:59:43.080
<v Speaker 1>going to trash talk a fan base, I know Baylor

0:59:43.120 --> 0:59:45.160
<v Speaker 1>fans are particularly proud of the new stadium, and they

0:59:45.160 --> 0:59:50.240
<v Speaker 1>should be. This is the level of intensity I think

0:59:50.240 --> 0:59:50.760
<v Speaker 1>that you need.

0:59:52.560 --> 0:59:54.640
<v Speaker 2>Okay, what do you have next?

0:59:54.880 --> 1:00:00.200
<v Speaker 1>I've got one here from USC fans. Oh love that. Yes,

1:00:01.480 --> 1:00:05.360
<v Speaker 1>this is some good forward thinking with Brian Kelly out

1:00:05.360 --> 1:00:07.960
<v Speaker 1>at Notre Dame. I don't see a loss on the schedule.

1:00:09.120 --> 1:00:11.280
<v Speaker 1>If you go undefeed it win the Pac twelve, we

1:00:11.320 --> 1:00:13.400
<v Speaker 1>are in the playoffs. No way in the world the

1:00:13.440 --> 1:00:16.880
<v Speaker 1>networks would give up the LA TV market, Dan, the

1:00:17.280 --> 1:00:21.240
<v Speaker 1>budding LA college football TV market, which we never talk

1:00:21.280 --> 1:00:26.160
<v Speaker 1>about in the program for good reasons. Not seeing a

1:00:26.200 --> 1:00:28.960
<v Speaker 1>loss on the schedule is another one of those common

1:00:29.000 --> 1:00:33.080
<v Speaker 1>strokes among message board posters. People who look at a schedule,

1:00:33.120 --> 1:00:36.600
<v Speaker 1>they look at the surroundings going into a new season,

1:00:37.320 --> 1:00:40.840
<v Speaker 1>and are just very bullish on the team comically. So,

1:00:41.520 --> 1:00:45.919
<v Speaker 1>of course, talk to me about USC's depth chart, talk

1:00:45.960 --> 1:00:49.200
<v Speaker 1>to me about this roster. Obviously, if they get Caleb Williams,

1:00:49.240 --> 1:00:51.360
<v Speaker 1>that'd be a pretty big boon. They already got Mary Williams,

1:00:51.680 --> 1:00:55.120
<v Speaker 1>the transfer wide out from Oklahoma, So Lincoln Riley's doing

1:00:55.160 --> 1:00:58.040
<v Speaker 1>a good job. But also got a bunch of guys

1:00:58.120 --> 1:01:01.520
<v Speaker 1>transferring in. Yeah, but also so it's not as if

1:01:01.920 --> 1:01:04.760
<v Speaker 1>the cabinet is fully stocked and ready for a national

1:01:04.840 --> 1:01:06.360
<v Speaker 1>championship run in twenty twenty two.

1:01:06.400 --> 1:01:11.280
<v Speaker 2>Am I right in saying that I see losses. So

1:01:11.400 --> 1:01:13.520
<v Speaker 2>Notre Dame is if you're looking at the schedule, Notre

1:01:13.600 --> 1:01:17.320
<v Speaker 2>Dame is the end of the season, right, Yeah, So

1:01:17.520 --> 1:01:19.880
<v Speaker 2>they have Notre Dame with we don't even know who

1:01:19.880 --> 1:01:22.160
<v Speaker 2>the starting quarterback is going to be. They're at UCLA.

1:01:22.360 --> 1:01:26.840
<v Speaker 2>It's in La but at Ucla who they just got destroyed.

1:01:26.280 --> 1:01:27.600
<v Speaker 1>By, right correct?

1:01:27.640 --> 1:01:30.640
<v Speaker 2>This past year. They've got a Colorado team that's kind

1:01:30.640 --> 1:01:34.640
<v Speaker 2>of floundering cal who knows, Arizona improving at Utah. At

1:01:34.720 --> 1:01:37.560
<v Speaker 2>Utah's a penciled in win the pactal champ with their

1:01:37.720 --> 1:01:43.120
<v Speaker 2>returning started quarterback. Okay, at Utah, we've got Wazoo at home,

1:01:43.240 --> 1:01:46.920
<v Speaker 2>Arizona State at home, Oregon State on the road. Remind

1:01:46.920 --> 1:01:52.080
<v Speaker 2>me who won that game last year? I believe the comfortably? Yeah, yeah,

1:01:52.160 --> 1:01:55.880
<v Speaker 2>Fresno State with Jeff Tedford who's back baby, he's back.

1:01:56.760 --> 1:02:00.640
<v Speaker 2>Rice in Stanford. They don't too much for me regard

1:02:00.800 --> 1:02:02.440
<v Speaker 2>like if u SC somehow runs the table, they run

1:02:02.440 --> 1:02:03.760
<v Speaker 2>the table. I don't see it. I think there's at

1:02:03.840 --> 1:02:06.400
<v Speaker 2>least three or probably two or three four losses whatever,

1:02:06.440 --> 1:02:08.240
<v Speaker 2>because it's year one and it's just difficult to win

1:02:08.560 --> 1:02:10.920
<v Speaker 2>big right away when you don't have the depth to

1:02:10.960 --> 1:02:14.200
<v Speaker 2>do so. But it is the Pac twelve, and they

1:02:14.200 --> 1:02:17.960
<v Speaker 2>don't have a challenging game in the non conference part

1:02:17.960 --> 1:02:20.920
<v Speaker 2>of the early schedule. They notre Dame to finish, So

1:02:22.520 --> 1:02:28.640
<v Speaker 2>I am not taking this seriously. I wonder, though, does

1:02:28.720 --> 1:02:34.240
<v Speaker 2>Lincoln Riley in LA? In LAX? Does he pass the

1:02:34.320 --> 1:02:38.800
<v Speaker 2>Hudson News test in LA? Yeah? He does? In Norman?

1:02:40.000 --> 1:02:40.360
<v Speaker 1>Right? Yeah?

1:02:40.360 --> 1:02:41.960
<v Speaker 2>Oklahoma City he does. In Norman he does.

1:02:41.960 --> 1:02:45.800
<v Speaker 1>In doubts he probably does in it. Yeah.

1:02:45.800 --> 1:02:48.000
<v Speaker 2>I think I think he would be recognized in most

1:02:49.280 --> 1:02:54.000
<v Speaker 2>large airports, mid size airports near major college football hubs, definitely.

1:02:55.000 --> 1:02:58.680
<v Speaker 2>I don't know about Philly, No, no, but I'm saying

1:02:58.680 --> 1:03:02.600
<v Speaker 2>Philly's not a major college football But LA is interesting

1:03:02.640 --> 1:03:05.280
<v Speaker 2>to me, Like you'd be recognized in the Nashville Airport,

1:03:05.400 --> 1:03:11.120
<v Speaker 2>in the Charlotte Airport, Birmingham, Atlanta. Yeah, but LA is

1:03:11.160 --> 1:03:14.840
<v Speaker 2>sort of a different animal, isn't it. It's it's a

1:03:14.920 --> 1:03:19.160
<v Speaker 2>different level of big game. If you're hunting for celebrities

1:03:19.200 --> 1:03:22.000
<v Speaker 2>at LAX, then in Norman, Oklahoma.

1:03:22.680 --> 1:03:28.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Like would TMZ if they were not tipped off

1:03:28.320 --> 1:03:31.600
<v Speaker 1>to his flight landing at LAX, would one of their

1:03:31.680 --> 1:03:35.600
<v Speaker 1>like photographers or producers instantly.

1:03:35.040 --> 1:03:38.080
<v Speaker 2>Be like, oh, that's the USC coach. Like, is Lincoln

1:03:38.120 --> 1:03:44.840
<v Speaker 2>Riley one of the five hundred most famous people in LA?

1:03:45.320 --> 1:03:47.400
<v Speaker 2>Is he one of the most two hundred three?

1:03:47.560 --> 1:03:47.680
<v Speaker 1>Like?

1:03:48.480 --> 1:03:51.560
<v Speaker 2>Is he the four hundred and forty seventh most famous

1:03:51.560 --> 1:03:55.160
<v Speaker 2>person in his college town? See, you're the West Coast guy.

1:03:55.200 --> 1:03:57.760
<v Speaker 1>I have no context for LA. I don't think he

1:03:57.920 --> 1:04:04.080
<v Speaker 1>is interesting. He's getting paid handsomely, he is. But the

1:04:04.160 --> 1:04:06.760
<v Speaker 1>Hudson News test, So here's the Hudson News test for

1:04:06.760 --> 1:04:09.080
<v Speaker 1>people wondering. Yeah, the Hudson News test is, and we

1:04:09.120 --> 1:04:11.280
<v Speaker 1>said this all the time about Clay Hilton. Yeah, the

1:04:11.320 --> 1:04:14.360
<v Speaker 1>Hudson News test is, if your college football coach is

1:04:14.360 --> 1:04:17.040
<v Speaker 1>out and about and you saw him at a Hudson

1:04:17.080 --> 1:04:19.400
<v Speaker 1>News in an airport or a train station or anywhere

1:04:19.600 --> 1:04:23.080
<v Speaker 1>around the world where there are Hudson newses, would you

1:04:23.160 --> 1:04:26.800
<v Speaker 1>recognize him or would he be recognized by a random

1:04:26.800 --> 1:04:29.960
<v Speaker 1>passer by at that Hudson News Clay Hilton almost certainly

1:04:29.960 --> 1:04:30.440
<v Speaker 1>would not be.

1:04:30.960 --> 1:04:33.080
<v Speaker 2>No, and we cover the sport, I'm not.

1:04:33.040 --> 1:04:36.920
<v Speaker 1>Sure we would recognize him. Lincoln Riley, I think we would,

1:04:37.280 --> 1:04:40.800
<v Speaker 1>But would the average passer by the average person.

1:04:41.640 --> 1:04:43.800
<v Speaker 2>Here's here's oh man, we're gonna pile on Clay Heelton.

1:04:43.960 --> 1:04:47.120
<v Speaker 2>There's no reason too. Everybody seems to like him personally.

1:04:47.880 --> 1:04:55.280
<v Speaker 2>If we were at a Mexican restaurant in Saint Louis, Okay,

1:04:55.960 --> 1:04:58.400
<v Speaker 2>and Clay Hilton came over to our table and said,

1:04:58.840 --> 1:05:03.800
<v Speaker 2>is everything okay? And he was dressed like a manager.

1:05:05.080 --> 1:05:10.040
<v Speaker 2>You guys having a good time those Enchalada's hitting. I

1:05:10.040 --> 1:05:14.440
<v Speaker 2>think I might just say, yeah, it's great, thanks. I

1:05:14.440 --> 1:05:14.800
<v Speaker 2>don't know.

1:05:14.920 --> 1:05:16.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't think we would know that it's him.

1:05:17.320 --> 1:05:19.320
<v Speaker 2>Like if you went to go buy a new Mazda

1:05:20.080 --> 1:05:23.080
<v Speaker 2>and Clay Hilton were on the showroom floor and he

1:05:23.160 --> 1:05:25.520
<v Speaker 2>said you interested in gas? Are you interested in hybrid?

1:05:26.560 --> 1:05:28.160
<v Speaker 2>Would you look at him and be like, I'm sorry,

1:05:28.280 --> 1:05:31.200
<v Speaker 2>is that former USC head coach Clay Helton? Or would

1:05:31.280 --> 1:05:33.880
<v Speaker 2>you say, oh, we're looking I add a third row,

1:05:34.040 --> 1:05:35.080
<v Speaker 2>got a big dog, And.

1:05:38.360 --> 1:05:42.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. Just asking questions, TI, I'm just asking questions.

1:05:43.600 --> 1:05:45.400
<v Speaker 2>The marketplace of ideas.

1:05:45.800 --> 1:05:47.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I've got so many.

1:05:47.240 --> 1:05:48.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't know how long I bought this show to

1:05:48.760 --> 1:05:50.680
<v Speaker 2>be This could be our best or worst show ever.

1:05:50.760 --> 1:05:51.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't know.

1:05:53.280 --> 1:05:56.479
<v Speaker 2>We've got a Clemson post about it is not even

1:05:56.520 --> 1:05:59.400
<v Speaker 2>the least bit suspicious that our problems on offense started

1:05:59.440 --> 1:06:02.640
<v Speaker 2>just after the herb Street Twins walked into the walked

1:06:02.680 --> 1:06:06.960
<v Speaker 2>onto the football team. I feel like we are executing

1:06:07.000 --> 1:06:09.360
<v Speaker 2>brilliantly on offense, but the other team simply has the

1:06:09.400 --> 1:06:12.960
<v Speaker 2>plays snuffed out before they begin. So this gentleman or

1:06:13.040 --> 1:06:17.479
<v Speaker 2>lady tiger Baum one is suggesting, right, there's a mole

1:06:18.600 --> 1:06:21.320
<v Speaker 2>that one of the herb Street twins is leaking the

1:06:21.360 --> 1:06:24.720
<v Speaker 2>offensive game planer. Both are in conjunction with one another.

1:06:25.400 --> 1:06:26.760
<v Speaker 2>And then he goes on to say, I know that

1:06:26.800 --> 1:06:28.680
<v Speaker 2>I have mocked some of you in the past with

1:06:28.760 --> 1:06:31.200
<v Speaker 2>this ESPN paranoia crap, but this thing is starting to

1:06:31.280 --> 1:06:34.440
<v Speaker 2>take legs. It would not surprise me one bit that

1:06:34.560 --> 1:06:39.080
<v Speaker 2>e SCPN would stoop this low to damage our program.

1:06:39.400 --> 1:06:41.720
<v Speaker 1>Laugh all you like, wow, So we're talking full on

1:06:41.800 --> 1:06:43.840
<v Speaker 1>Herbie leaks. Here is what we're talking about.

1:06:43.960 --> 1:06:49.720
<v Speaker 2>We're talking Herbie leaks. We're saying that ESPN has such

1:06:49.760 --> 1:06:54.160
<v Speaker 2>a pronounced vendetta against Clemson naturally because they are not

1:06:54.200 --> 1:06:59.840
<v Speaker 2>in the sec that Kirk herb Street, analysts of the

1:06:59.840 --> 1:07:04.880
<v Speaker 2>bugest analyst in the sport, has employed his two sons

1:07:05.520 --> 1:07:11.320
<v Speaker 2>to get him the game plan in writing. I guess

1:07:11.600 --> 1:07:13.760
<v Speaker 2>or just here's how did they.

1:07:13.760 --> 1:07:18.960
<v Speaker 1>Do how did they do it at Louisville. Louisville with

1:07:19.040 --> 1:07:20.720
<v Speaker 1>what the whole waki.

1:07:20.520 --> 1:07:24.200
<v Speaker 2>Links thing, right, Well, that was the announcer, right, Okay,

1:07:24.280 --> 1:07:27.360
<v Speaker 2>that was an announcer that had access to some sort

1:07:27.400 --> 1:07:30.360
<v Speaker 2>of game plans tipping off calls or signals or something

1:07:30.400 --> 1:07:32.439
<v Speaker 2>like that. So the herb Street Twins, I guess would

1:07:32.440 --> 1:07:34.040
<v Speaker 2>know the signals and would know the calls and the

1:07:34.040 --> 1:07:38.960
<v Speaker 2>adjustments and the opening script or something like that. But man,

1:07:40.560 --> 1:07:45.160
<v Speaker 2>I for one, am fully on board. I am fully

1:07:45.200 --> 1:07:50.760
<v Speaker 2>on board with this being a worthwhile conspiracy to pull

1:07:50.800 --> 1:07:52.480
<v Speaker 2>on the string to see where it leads.

1:07:52.880 --> 1:07:55.840
<v Speaker 1>Is this? I mean they got to be using signal

1:07:55.960 --> 1:07:58.280
<v Speaker 1>or some sort of encrypted app. I would assume you

1:07:58.280 --> 1:08:01.480
<v Speaker 1>would think. So these are gens the kids at this point,

1:08:01.760 --> 1:08:07.560
<v Speaker 1>m they know how to get around the system. I

1:08:07.600 --> 1:08:10.200
<v Speaker 1>love the energy with which this was posted. Oh my god,

1:08:10.440 --> 1:08:13.200
<v Speaker 1>it's great. This post is long enough that it was

1:08:13.240 --> 1:08:15.800
<v Speaker 1>not written tongue in cheek. Oh yeah, this is somebody.

1:08:15.480 --> 1:08:18.280
<v Speaker 2>Who honest, he went on to say, like laugh all

1:08:18.360 --> 1:08:22.120
<v Speaker 2>you like, but connect the dots people. This is somebody

1:08:22.160 --> 1:08:24.120
<v Speaker 2>who's into it. I love this.

1:08:24.200 --> 1:08:25.880
<v Speaker 1>I am not on board with this is a real thing,

1:08:26.040 --> 1:08:29.160
<v Speaker 1>but on board with this energy. I love it.

1:08:29.400 --> 1:08:33.160
<v Speaker 2>I love the full denial of any sort of accountability

1:08:33.760 --> 1:08:37.160
<v Speaker 2>that the offensive line has struggled and a young quarterback

1:08:37.160 --> 1:08:41.880
<v Speaker 2>has struggled, and the play calling has been pretty woeful,

1:08:42.120 --> 1:08:46.719
<v Speaker 2>and the assistant hiring has been probably loyal to a fault.

1:08:47.400 --> 1:08:51.360
<v Speaker 2>Like there is a there is a full dedication and

1:08:51.400 --> 1:08:56.599
<v Speaker 2>buy into Clemson football that it must be the outsiders, right,

1:08:56.760 --> 1:09:02.439
<v Speaker 2>it must be this, this chemical element added to the

1:09:02.520 --> 1:09:09.880
<v Speaker 2>otherwise pure elixir that has changed the foundation and success.

1:09:10.479 --> 1:09:11.000
<v Speaker 1>I love it.

1:09:11.439 --> 1:09:14.599
<v Speaker 2>I love that sort of blind dedication, and so I'm

1:09:14.640 --> 1:09:17.280
<v Speaker 2>okay with it, all right. So we're running short on time.

1:09:17.360 --> 1:09:18.040
<v Speaker 2>Is a long show.

1:09:19.680 --> 1:09:22.679
<v Speaker 1>I've got one, maybe two more that I can do here.

1:09:22.960 --> 1:09:24.840
<v Speaker 2>You want me to do best of my remainings?

1:09:24.920 --> 1:09:27.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? Do you want me to do Kansas joining the SEC?

1:09:27.760 --> 1:09:29.720
<v Speaker 1>Do you want me to do Clemson doing it the

1:09:29.800 --> 1:09:34.800
<v Speaker 1>right way? The Raiders not interested in Jim Harbaugh. Billy

1:09:34.880 --> 1:09:36.400
<v Speaker 1>Napier nixing a lazy river.

1:09:37.960 --> 1:09:38.599
<v Speaker 2>I like that one.

1:09:38.600 --> 1:09:42.320
<v Speaker 1>That's recent. Yeah, so, Billy Napier. There were apparently plans

1:09:42.840 --> 1:09:46.240
<v Speaker 1>as part of Florida's renovation effort to build a lazy

1:09:46.360 --> 1:09:51.200
<v Speaker 1>river in the football facility and This gentleman says that

1:09:52.520 --> 1:09:54.800
<v Speaker 1>getting rid of the Lazy River in the new facilities

1:09:54.800 --> 1:09:57.719
<v Speaker 1>to strike one, it was a real selling point.

1:09:57.880 --> 1:09:58.680
<v Speaker 2>Unbelievable.

1:09:58.800 --> 1:10:01.280
<v Speaker 1>Now, I did see there was some fallout to this

1:10:01.400 --> 1:10:06.080
<v Speaker 1>posting by the boor geniuses, i e. Folks within the

1:10:06.080 --> 1:10:09.559
<v Speaker 1>Florida community who don't like the poster and don't want

1:10:09.560 --> 1:10:12.280
<v Speaker 1>anything to do with the poster. They're disassociating and the

1:10:12.280 --> 1:10:15.160
<v Speaker 1>message board geniuses account and people are a person who

1:10:15.200 --> 1:10:18.479
<v Speaker 1>runs it is very quick to say we understand that

1:10:18.520 --> 1:10:21.640
<v Speaker 1>these are isolated thoughts, not the full reflection of an

1:10:21.760 --> 1:10:24.280
<v Speaker 1>entire fan base, all right, And that's also a very

1:10:24.680 --> 1:10:27.320
<v Speaker 1>important point here that we should man. Of course, these

1:10:27.360 --> 1:10:31.360
<v Speaker 1>are by no means representative of entire fan bases. These

1:10:31.360 --> 1:10:34.640
<v Speaker 1>are very much extreme examples. That's why this Twitter account.

1:10:34.439 --> 1:10:38.080
<v Speaker 2>But it's representative of fringe college football fans. All of

1:10:38.120 --> 1:10:40.719
<v Speaker 2>these are within the realm of fringe college football thinking,

1:10:40.840 --> 1:10:45.479
<v Speaker 2>for sure, is a lazy river, is a ball pit

1:10:47.200 --> 1:10:48.360
<v Speaker 2>is to Clemson?

1:10:48.479 --> 1:10:48.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

1:10:48.920 --> 1:10:54.760
<v Speaker 2>A LSU sleep pod, the dentist's office at Oregon, the barbershop?

1:10:54.840 --> 1:11:00.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? Are any of these things such deal breakers that

1:11:00.280 --> 1:11:03.160
<v Speaker 1>if you're a five star recruit, it is going to

1:11:03.200 --> 1:11:06.200
<v Speaker 1>alter your decision making process.

1:11:09.120 --> 1:11:11.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so it's it's a wow factor thing. It's not

1:11:11.800 --> 1:11:14.840
<v Speaker 2>that you're selecting a school because of the slide or

1:11:14.880 --> 1:11:17.640
<v Speaker 2>the putt putt course, or the barber shop or the

1:11:18.760 --> 1:11:23.920
<v Speaker 2>lazy river. It's the wow factor of this place is luxury.

1:11:23.960 --> 1:11:27.680
<v Speaker 2>This place is treating its players in a way that

1:11:27.760 --> 1:11:31.400
<v Speaker 2>is not consistent with the lower level schools recruiting me.

1:11:32.200 --> 1:11:35.200
<v Speaker 2>Lazy river is a wow factor item tie. I can't

1:11:35.240 --> 1:11:39.599
<v Speaker 2>deny that. Like, I come across very few places that

1:11:39.720 --> 1:11:41.200
<v Speaker 2>offer their own lazy rivers.

1:11:41.479 --> 1:11:43.439
<v Speaker 1>I have googled how much it would cost to build

1:11:43.479 --> 1:11:45.160
<v Speaker 1>my own lazy river. I have I told you this,

1:11:45.240 --> 1:11:47.519
<v Speaker 1>of course, as we all have. I would love to

1:11:47.520 --> 1:11:50.880
<v Speaker 1>have a lazy river. I think it's it's by far

1:11:51.080 --> 1:11:55.280
<v Speaker 1>the most underrated of all water park attractions.

1:11:55.920 --> 1:11:58.280
<v Speaker 2>So where how would you employ a lazy river on

1:11:58.320 --> 1:11:58.959
<v Speaker 2>your property?

1:11:59.040 --> 1:12:00.880
<v Speaker 1>I have no idea. There's no way I could. I

1:12:01.000 --> 1:12:03.599
<v Speaker 1>just it would cost more than I'm worth for sure.

1:12:05.880 --> 1:12:08.120
<v Speaker 1>So I get the allure of the laser river. I

1:12:08.240 --> 1:12:11.120
<v Speaker 1>like the lore of the lazier river. I just don't

1:12:11.120 --> 1:12:15.080
<v Speaker 1>think it's that big a deal. I just like, like,

1:12:15.120 --> 1:12:20.360
<v Speaker 1>maybe buy some extra iPads or virtual reality goggles or

1:12:20.800 --> 1:12:24.200
<v Speaker 1>something that's not as extreme as the lazy River. I

1:12:24.240 --> 1:12:26.120
<v Speaker 1>just don't see that as a huge selling point.

1:12:26.280 --> 1:12:31.000
<v Speaker 2>No again, though, it's wow factor. It's you've seen the rest,

1:12:31.240 --> 1:12:34.720
<v Speaker 2>Now come play for the best and chill out in

1:12:34.760 --> 1:12:38.679
<v Speaker 2>an inner tube around the facility during your free time.

1:12:39.439 --> 1:12:42.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm okay with it. I'm okay with bemoaning the loss

1:12:42.000 --> 1:12:46.000
<v Speaker 2>of a potential lazy river because it's it's a differentiating factor.

1:12:46.120 --> 1:12:46.920
<v Speaker 2>I'm not on board with that.

1:12:47.080 --> 1:12:48.920
<v Speaker 1>Right that we agree to disagree.

1:12:48.720 --> 1:12:51.000
<v Speaker 2>All right, give me your final one. This is from

1:12:51.040 --> 1:12:54.599
<v Speaker 2>a there's a Kansas state posting about eating too much

1:12:54.640 --> 1:12:59.960
<v Speaker 2>potato salad causing diarrhea. I think that's sort of self evident,

1:13:00.200 --> 1:13:02.840
<v Speaker 2>like monitor how much potato salad you eat because you

1:13:02.880 --> 1:13:04.920
<v Speaker 2>never know what it's going to do to your system

1:13:04.960 --> 1:13:07.439
<v Speaker 2>and how you'll respond to having too much potato salad.

1:13:08.800 --> 1:13:11.320
<v Speaker 2>I've got a post about the Chicago mafia getting involved

1:13:11.320 --> 1:13:12.840
<v Speaker 2>with Illinois beating Nebraska.

1:13:13.320 --> 1:13:13.639
<v Speaker 1>Okay.

1:13:15.280 --> 1:13:17.360
<v Speaker 2>I've got an Auburn fan saying they should build a

1:13:17.400 --> 1:13:21.840
<v Speaker 2>statue to Gus to honor Gus Malson. It's pretty good.

1:13:22.640 --> 1:13:25.160
<v Speaker 2>I've got a post from a Clem Clemson in Texas.

1:13:25.160 --> 1:13:28.920
<v Speaker 2>A and M do not get enough credit for having

1:13:29.000 --> 1:13:31.519
<v Speaker 2>these magical homes on the internet, and I wish they

1:13:31.560 --> 1:13:35.439
<v Speaker 2>would like create an annual game like ditch South Carolina,

1:13:35.479 --> 1:13:37.519
<v Speaker 2>ditch the hopes of Texas A and M playing Texas

1:13:37.880 --> 1:13:40.280
<v Speaker 2>and set up a Texas A and M Clemson rivalry

1:13:40.320 --> 1:13:40.880
<v Speaker 2>we need for.

1:13:41.479 --> 1:13:43.760
<v Speaker 1>We need the Clemson A and M metaverse is what

1:13:43.800 --> 1:13:44.200
<v Speaker 1>we need.

1:13:45.080 --> 1:13:48.560
<v Speaker 2>I've got Ohio State an Ohio State poster on Bucknuts,

1:13:48.720 --> 1:13:50.559
<v Speaker 2>which appears to be the twenty four to seven site

1:13:50.600 --> 1:13:55.479
<v Speaker 2>saying Tate Martel was the curse? Serious question? What if

1:13:55.479 --> 1:13:58.679
<v Speaker 2>he was our next guy? This was posted. I don't

1:13:58.720 --> 1:14:01.599
<v Speaker 2>have a date when this was posted. He can throw,

1:14:01.640 --> 1:14:03.880
<v Speaker 2>he can run, he can maybe be what's needed to

1:14:03.880 --> 1:14:07.000
<v Speaker 2>get our offense over the hill. C J. Stroud can't run,

1:14:07.000 --> 1:14:09.360
<v Speaker 2>but he can throw. Our offense is based on the

1:14:09.400 --> 1:14:11.800
<v Speaker 2>quarterbacks ability to do it all, and currently we have

1:14:11.840 --> 1:14:15.040
<v Speaker 2>an elite passer but not a non existent runner. How

1:14:15.080 --> 1:14:18.120
<v Speaker 2>well might a Martel? How well might Tate Martell have

1:14:18.200 --> 1:14:21.439
<v Speaker 2>done in this offense with Day at his side? Tate

1:14:21.479 --> 1:14:24.000
<v Speaker 2>Martell last scene playing consistently a receiver for Miami. I

1:14:24.000 --> 1:14:25.200
<v Speaker 2>think as a backup at UNLV.

1:14:25.920 --> 1:14:26.960
<v Speaker 1>Yes, correct, that's correct.

1:14:27.040 --> 1:14:30.599
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, hard to see that being the answer my final

1:14:30.760 --> 1:14:35.719
<v Speaker 2>full question from Brady. So it might be an actual

1:14:35.760 --> 1:14:38.840
<v Speaker 2>person named Brady. Can a school buy a player from

1:14:38.840 --> 1:14:43.599
<v Speaker 2>another school? It's the subject. It wouldn't be paying the player,

1:14:44.160 --> 1:14:47.439
<v Speaker 2>but a school to school transaction. They can use the

1:14:47.479 --> 1:14:50.559
<v Speaker 2>money to add on to stadiums or buy many players

1:14:50.760 --> 1:14:51.879
<v Speaker 2>through raising tuition.

1:14:52.080 --> 1:14:55.599
<v Speaker 1>This is full on transfer i e. English Premier League.

1:14:57.080 --> 1:15:03.320
<v Speaker 2>It's borderline human trafficking, is I'm reading this. Instead of recruiting,

1:15:03.560 --> 1:15:08.120
<v Speaker 2>we should just buy the best players already playing. So

1:15:10.560 --> 1:15:13.800
<v Speaker 2>let's give it the way it deserves, which is obviously none.

1:15:13.920 --> 1:15:18.200
<v Speaker 2>But so people are going to say, this is not

1:15:18.240 --> 1:15:20.200
<v Speaker 2>a joke, this is not funny, this is nil. This

1:15:20.280 --> 1:15:22.479
<v Speaker 2>is where we are heading right, This is this is

1:15:22.520 --> 1:15:26.439
<v Speaker 2>the slippery slope that the solid verbal boulder is rolling down.

1:15:27.560 --> 1:15:35.000
<v Speaker 2>So could Clemson arrange deals with other schools? So explain

1:15:35.120 --> 1:15:39.040
<v Speaker 2>EPL Like the top clubs can go to other clubs

1:15:39.120 --> 1:15:42.000
<v Speaker 2>or lower level clubs who are perhaps more cash strapped

1:15:42.000 --> 1:15:45.160
<v Speaker 2>and money hungry, and say look, we're gonna we're gonna

1:15:45.160 --> 1:15:47.719
<v Speaker 2>buy the rights to this player for a certain amount

1:15:47.720 --> 1:15:51.880
<v Speaker 2>of time and then return that player after that time something.

1:15:52.080 --> 1:15:53.880
<v Speaker 2>I mean, there's a whole host of different ways you

1:15:53.880 --> 1:15:55.559
<v Speaker 2>could do it. You could buy a guy for a

1:15:55.560 --> 1:15:58.439
<v Speaker 2>certain period of time. That's called a loan, right you

1:15:58.520 --> 1:16:03.680
<v Speaker 2>can you can loan a guy out, yep. And you

1:16:03.720 --> 1:16:05.240
<v Speaker 2>can also just straight up by a guy if you've

1:16:05.240 --> 1:16:07.479
<v Speaker 2>got the money. If you've got a player, then you

1:16:07.520 --> 1:16:10.000
<v Speaker 2>know it's not working out in one place, or maybe

1:16:10.000 --> 1:16:12.320
<v Speaker 2>it'll work out better in yours. You can just go

1:16:12.400 --> 1:16:14.840
<v Speaker 2>out and pay the transfer fee and then you own

1:16:14.880 --> 1:16:18.960
<v Speaker 2>the rights to that player. And so it is very transactional.

1:16:19.160 --> 1:16:22.840
<v Speaker 2>There are many clubs out there who have made small

1:16:22.880 --> 1:16:26.240
<v Speaker 2>fortunes doing this by having a good scouting department, by

1:16:26.760 --> 1:16:30.000
<v Speaker 2>bringing in top talent, by selling them for you know,

1:16:30.360 --> 1:16:34.040
<v Speaker 2>a factor eight x ten x of what they initially paid,

1:16:34.040 --> 1:16:35.960
<v Speaker 2>and then they use the money for something else, either

1:16:36.360 --> 1:16:40.800
<v Speaker 2>players or facilities, or you know, any number of different things.

1:16:40.840 --> 1:16:44.280
<v Speaker 2>So it's very much a soccer philosophy. So my question

1:16:44.320 --> 1:16:47.320
<v Speaker 2>to you is, let's again, let's take this seriously. The

1:16:47.400 --> 1:16:51.080
<v Speaker 2>obvious upgrade that Clemson could have used in purchasing another

1:16:51.080 --> 1:16:54.360
<v Speaker 2>player again, couldn't have this player making the money on

1:16:54.640 --> 1:16:58.559
<v Speaker 2>this transaction? The team, the program, the school. Can you

1:16:58.760 --> 1:17:01.080
<v Speaker 2>said money right that they need the money to improve

1:17:01.080 --> 1:17:03.040
<v Speaker 2>their stadium or you know, hit their recruiting budget or

1:17:03.040 --> 1:17:08.360
<v Speaker 2>their travel budget, whatever uniform budget. If Clemson were to

1:17:08.360 --> 1:17:12.559
<v Speaker 2>pay Western Kentucky for Bailey's Appy, of course Bailey's Appy,

1:17:12.560 --> 1:17:13.880
<v Speaker 2>why would he get any of that money?

1:17:13.960 --> 1:17:14.120
<v Speaker 1>Right?

1:17:15.560 --> 1:17:17.960
<v Speaker 2>If Bailey's Appy were to go to Clemson based on

1:17:18.040 --> 1:17:20.120
<v Speaker 2>this kind of loan after four or five games where

1:17:20.160 --> 1:17:23.080
<v Speaker 2>Bailey's Appy's like, oh man, this kid at Western Kentucky,

1:17:23.320 --> 1:17:26.760
<v Speaker 2>not geographically too far away, is lighting it up right,

1:17:26.840 --> 1:17:29.719
<v Speaker 2>had a good game against Michigan State, and Western Kentucky's

1:17:29.760 --> 1:17:33.400
<v Speaker 2>not making Power five TV cash. So let's say Clemson,

1:17:33.439 --> 1:17:36.479
<v Speaker 2>who is making that big cash offered you know, a

1:17:36.560 --> 1:17:39.599
<v Speaker 2>million bucks or something like that, a non insignificant amount

1:17:39.600 --> 1:17:42.040
<v Speaker 2>of money that Western Kentucky could put towards a sports,

1:17:42.200 --> 1:17:45.519
<v Speaker 2>a different sport whatever. They're like, okay, fine, we like

1:17:45.560 --> 1:17:49.160
<v Speaker 2>our backup, We'll go with it. Does Bailey's Appy make

1:17:49.200 --> 1:17:53.519
<v Speaker 2>an appreciable difference in the Clemson twenty twenty one season

1:17:53.960 --> 1:17:56.840
<v Speaker 2>if they could buy the best available or Grayson McCall,

1:17:56.880 --> 1:17:59.439
<v Speaker 2>whoever it is, that the best available? But I feel

1:17:59.439 --> 1:18:01.200
<v Speaker 2>like Coastal care Lina was winning more games, so they

1:18:01.200 --> 1:18:03.680
<v Speaker 2>would be a little more hesitant though it's in the

1:18:03.680 --> 1:18:07.439
<v Speaker 2>geographic footprint even more is there a world in which

1:18:07.520 --> 1:18:11.400
<v Speaker 2>the best G five quarterback, especially local to the South Southeast,

1:18:12.000 --> 1:18:14.920
<v Speaker 2>is making a difference in Clemson season? Should this be

1:18:15.439 --> 1:18:18.640
<v Speaker 2>an allowable transaction? I think so?

1:18:18.840 --> 1:18:21.439
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Okay, so Clemson lose.

1:18:21.520 --> 1:18:23.519
<v Speaker 2>I don't think Bailey's appy beats Georgia, and we wouldn't

1:18:23.520 --> 1:18:25.679
<v Speaker 2>know because Bailey's Appy wouldn't be available and he wouldn't

1:18:25.680 --> 1:18:27.800
<v Speaker 2>be a known commodity to open the season.

1:18:27.720 --> 1:18:32.800
<v Speaker 1>Right right, I mean, there are always no shortage of

1:18:33.040 --> 1:18:36.080
<v Speaker 1>really good group of five quarterbacks. And Dju was bad

1:18:36.160 --> 1:18:39.519
<v Speaker 1>early on. He got better, he got better, right, he

1:18:39.560 --> 1:18:43.600
<v Speaker 1>got better, but he was very bad early on. So

1:18:44.400 --> 1:18:46.320
<v Speaker 1>could you bring in somebody? Could you bring in a

1:18:46.360 --> 1:18:49.439
<v Speaker 1>grays and McCall. I get that Coastal might be adverse

1:18:49.479 --> 1:18:54.720
<v Speaker 1>to that move. Yeah, but everybody's got a price. Everybody's

1:18:54.720 --> 1:18:56.559
<v Speaker 1>got a price. If your coastal, if you can make

1:18:56.640 --> 1:19:01.439
<v Speaker 1>bank to get Grayson McCall pro prospect to get him

1:19:01.439 --> 1:19:05.360
<v Speaker 1>over to Clemson, yeah, of course. So I think it's

1:19:05.360 --> 1:19:06.400
<v Speaker 1>an interesting question.

1:19:06.720 --> 1:19:07.320
<v Speaker 2>There are some.

1:19:07.320 --> 1:19:10.400
<v Speaker 1>Around college football, by the way, yeah, who think it's

1:19:10.439 --> 1:19:13.839
<v Speaker 1>headed in this direction because of nil. You know, program

1:19:13.960 --> 1:19:18.120
<v Speaker 1>can't straight up by a guy, A program can't straight

1:19:18.200 --> 1:19:21.639
<v Speaker 1>up pay a guy, but Boosters have businesses and invest

1:19:21.720 --> 1:19:24.800
<v Speaker 1>in a fund of some kind. Yeah, there are some

1:19:24.840 --> 1:19:27.080
<v Speaker 1>folks who think that we're headed in this direction, that

1:19:27.600 --> 1:19:30.080
<v Speaker 1>it could potentially derail college football. As we know a

1:19:30.160 --> 1:19:31.640
<v Speaker 1>Kirby Spartanik Saban.

1:19:31.439 --> 1:19:32.200
<v Speaker 2>Might be two of them.

1:19:32.840 --> 1:19:37.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so it's interesting to me. It's interesting to me.

1:19:38.439 --> 1:19:43.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm not totally against the spirit behind this post, and

1:19:43.920 --> 1:19:47.200
<v Speaker 1>of course is outlandish, but that being said, I understand

1:19:47.200 --> 1:19:51.360
<v Speaker 1>where it's coming from. And I don't know, maybe a

1:19:51.400 --> 1:19:54.800
<v Speaker 1>year or two more into Nil will be singing a

1:19:54.840 --> 1:19:57.479
<v Speaker 1>similar tune like we got to get Boosters aligned here,

1:19:57.520 --> 1:19:58.479
<v Speaker 1>we got to go out and we got to buy

1:19:58.479 --> 1:19:59.920
<v Speaker 1>a quarterback that can come and help this thing.

1:20:02.240 --> 1:20:06.479
<v Speaker 2>I love this because it takes the autonomy fully away

1:20:06.560 --> 1:20:11.479
<v Speaker 2>from Bailey's Appy. In this, I was like, hey, college football,

1:20:11.640 --> 1:20:13.760
<v Speaker 2>it's you go to college and you're happen to be

1:20:13.800 --> 1:20:15.240
<v Speaker 2>good at football, and we're gonna give you a bunch

1:20:15.240 --> 1:20:17.360
<v Speaker 2>of money to attend school and any other expenses, and

1:20:17.400 --> 1:20:19.920
<v Speaker 2>in return, you're gonna play college football for us. Also,

1:20:20.240 --> 1:20:23.679
<v Speaker 2>if another school thinks they could use you more, we'll

1:20:23.680 --> 1:20:30.439
<v Speaker 2>sell you. That energy is kind of misplaced, but yeah,

1:20:30.479 --> 1:20:34.120
<v Speaker 2>Bailey's Appy with now Clemson's receivers were disappointed. The offensive

1:20:34.120 --> 1:20:36.760
<v Speaker 2>line was disappointing. I don't think Clemson fans were huge

1:20:37.320 --> 1:20:40.120
<v Speaker 2>fans of Tony Elliott's job this past year or two.

1:20:42.840 --> 1:20:45.400
<v Speaker 2>But is Bailey's appy connecting on more passes downfield? They

1:20:45.479 --> 1:20:50.680
<v Speaker 2>lose to what NC State and doublet and Pitt by

1:20:51.280 --> 1:20:53.360
<v Speaker 2>eight or ten points or something like that. They're losing

1:20:53.360 --> 1:20:55.799
<v Speaker 2>to Georgia either way, that gets them in the playoff.

1:20:56.280 --> 1:20:59.679
<v Speaker 2>If Bailey's Appy is the difference against Pitt and NC State. Now,

1:21:00.400 --> 1:21:03.280
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. Clemson wasn't able really to stop in

1:21:03.360 --> 1:21:06.840
<v Speaker 2>overtime like that was a defensive thing. It was Devin

1:21:06.920 --> 1:21:12.120
<v Speaker 2>Leary connecting on some crazy passes. But I think I

1:21:12.160 --> 1:21:15.240
<v Speaker 2>think Zappi in this alternate universe, with time to learn

1:21:15.280 --> 1:21:16.920
<v Speaker 2>the system and get in a rhythm and whatever, blah

1:21:16.960 --> 1:21:19.400
<v Speaker 2>blah blah, I think he's better.

1:21:19.560 --> 1:21:22.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we are going to need to come back to

1:21:22.080 --> 1:21:24.680
<v Speaker 1>this prebist. You know how Conan used to have the

1:21:24.720 --> 1:21:27.240
<v Speaker 1>Walker Texas Ranger lever, of course.

1:21:27.120 --> 1:21:29.880
<v Speaker 2>Until he realized that he didn't want to pay residuals

1:21:29.920 --> 1:21:32.720
<v Speaker 2>to the actors and the clips he was showing on

1:21:33.479 --> 1:21:35.680
<v Speaker 2>his show. That's the reason they stopped because they're like,

1:21:36.840 --> 1:21:39.080
<v Speaker 2>I think the people at the studio that produced Walker

1:21:39.120 --> 1:21:44.080
<v Speaker 2>Texas Ranger are going to start charging you for this. Yeah,

1:21:44.160 --> 1:21:44.679
<v Speaker 2>what we.

1:21:44.560 --> 1:21:46.040
<v Speaker 1>Need to do is we need to have a message

1:21:46.080 --> 1:21:49.400
<v Speaker 1>board lever. Of course, you need to make a sound.

1:21:49.760 --> 1:21:50.479
<v Speaker 2>I'm giving you the.

1:21:50.400 --> 1:21:53.000
<v Speaker 1>Acount of that, and every sound take a dip in.

1:21:54.000 --> 1:21:56.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, every week, every other week, every month, yeah,

1:21:56.160 --> 1:21:59.200
<v Speaker 1>every so often, mix it up, but it would be

1:21:59.200 --> 1:22:02.559
<v Speaker 1>helpful to have a message board lever. Yeah, saliverbo atmail

1:22:02.600 --> 1:22:04.559
<v Speaker 1>dot com is the email address right in. Let us

1:22:04.600 --> 1:22:06.680
<v Speaker 1>know if there are any that we missed.

1:22:06.760 --> 1:22:07.679
<v Speaker 2>Or just your favorite.

1:22:07.800 --> 1:22:11.880
<v Speaker 1>Please do continue to monitor the artists over at boor

1:22:12.000 --> 1:22:15.360
<v Speaker 1>geniuses on Twitter. We appreciate their fine work. We appreciate

1:22:15.400 --> 1:22:18.639
<v Speaker 1>the fine work of the college football community in putting

1:22:18.680 --> 1:22:24.599
<v Speaker 1>these thoughts, these ideas, some of this drivel into the universe.

1:22:25.080 --> 1:22:27.519
<v Speaker 2>We love the energy the all time message board post.

1:22:27.560 --> 1:22:28.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna get this wrong, but this is the all.

1:22:29.080 --> 1:22:33.280
<v Speaker 2>This is the sketch of it. John Boyce, who have

1:22:33.360 --> 1:22:35.599
<v Speaker 2>known forever, good friend of mine, decent friend of mine.

1:22:35.640 --> 1:22:37.360
<v Speaker 2>I haven't seen him in a long time. He did

1:22:37.360 --> 1:22:40.919
<v Speaker 2>a whole video about on bodybuilding dot com. An argument

1:22:41.360 --> 1:22:45.400
<v Speaker 2>erupted about how many days there were in a week,

1:22:50.760 --> 1:22:54.880
<v Speaker 2>and somebody insisted that it was not seven. There was

1:22:55.040 --> 1:23:00.639
<v Speaker 2>an ongoing I want to say, like very long days, weeks, months, years, debate.

1:23:01.280 --> 1:23:04.360
<v Speaker 2>Look it up about how many days there actually were
