1
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:14,880
Speaker 1: You hear that sound, that's the sound of the portal closing,

2
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:17,840
Speaker 1: which is a happy day for some, but it's a dark,

3
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 1: dark day for me. A lot of atonement to happen

4
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:22,720
Speaker 1: on tonight's show, and my voice gets ever the more

5
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:24,919
Speaker 1: somberie even as I talked about it. But that's a

6
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:26,799
Speaker 1: little bit later in the show. We are jam packed

7
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:30,000
Speaker 1: high top a sold out downtown Nashville, Tennessee Late Kick

8
00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:33,239
Speaker 1: Live for Thursday, May second. There of Our Lord twenty

9
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:35,960
Speaker 1: twenty four. We got I think Morgan Wallin's like live

10
00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 1: right across the river right now, and traffic has been

11
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:43,319
Speaker 1: a nightmare here today. But don't worry. We're live and

12
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:45,280
Speaker 1: we're good, and you're good because you're not downtown in

13
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 1: Nashville right now. I've got a whole lot jam packed

14
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:51,240
Speaker 1: into the night's show. So Dion Sanders has said a

15
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 1: lot of things. A lot's going on up there at Colorado.

16
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 1: Some people are saying it's trash on one side. Some

17
00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 1: people are saying it's trash on the other side. I

18
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 1: have not said a word about it. I will lead

19
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,959
Speaker 1: the show with it tonight. I've got some things to

20
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,120
Speaker 1: talk about in regards to me and certain predictions I

21
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 1: made and the transfer portal. This will not be a

22
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 1: fun evening for me. It'll be fun for some of you, though,

23
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 1: But that's the policy here at Peyton Stayton. Since I

24
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:19,120
Speaker 1: don't have a co host, I have to enforce my

25
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 1: own policies on myself. I've got four underrated teams I

26
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:24,320
Speaker 1: need to talk to you about tonight. I've got an

27
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 1: entire view on Georgia. I got the Ohio State mood Tracker.

28
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 1: I've got actual portal intel because there are guys moving

29
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:32,759
Speaker 1: and scheduling visits even as we go on air right now.

30
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 1: So yeah, it may be early May and casuals may

31
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 1: be talking off season. Not here jam Pack tonight, they're

32
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:44,040
Speaker 1: watching us on slidell Louisiana, pinetop Arizona, Abilene, Kansas, and Odessa, Texas.

33
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 1: Thank you, guys so much, Just a paper pop in

34
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 1: advance of what should be a memorable show. Some of

35
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 1: you still aren't following on the socials at late Kick, Josh,

36
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: and I don't know what to tell you. There's some

37
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 1: stuff you're missing over there. If you're not following, that's

38
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 1: all I'm gonna say. There's some stuff you're missing over there.

39
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 1: If you're not following, especially that Instagram story from time

40
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 1: to time. And I expect some news in that Instagram

41
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: story within the next week regarding some things we're going

42
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 1: to do in the future. But that's for the future.

43
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:14,079
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the here and now. Okay, So Dion

44
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 1: and Colorado in the news. Max Olson's in the news.

45
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 1: Max Olson from the Athletic had the audacity to go

46
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,959
Speaker 1: and do his job and he wrote an article over

47
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 1: on the Athletic about the guys that have transferred out

48
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 1: of Colorado, and I thought it was very well done. Obviously,

49
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,079
Speaker 1: some people on the Colorado side think that it's very

50
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 1: one sided. It's pseudo journalism, it's gotcha journalism, it's whatever

51
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 1: they want to call it. It was telling stories from

52
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 1: guys whose voices otherwise would never have been heard. And

53
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 1: so here's the thing about Colorado and Dion Sanders. They've

54
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 1: got a platform, a big one, a megaphone. Nothing that

55
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 1: they want disseminated fails to get disseminated. But if you

56
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 1: were a guy who was a holdover from the previous

57
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,080
Speaker 1: regime and then Deon comes in and your cut loose,

58
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: no one's gonna hear your voice. Max Olsen gave those

59
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 1: guys a voice. It's a long feature. It's still probably

60
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 1: on the front page of College Football over on the Athletics,

61
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 1: so I would encourage you to go read it. It's

62
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 1: not some definitive, end all be all like gavel bang

63
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 1: on the program, but I think it was a really,

64
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: really good look. I'll tell you this, I learned a

65
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 1: whole lot I didn't know. I learned a whole lot

66
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 1: about a whole lot of guys I didn't know much about.

67
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 1: And I cover this sport and follow what year round.

68
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:27,359
Speaker 1: So I thought Max Olsen did a good job. Other

69
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 1: people did not, including some people inside the program. So

70
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 1: to save you some time, there's been a lot of

71
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,839
Speaker 1: sniping back and forth, people taking shots at Colorado, Dion

72
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: responding to some of them, Shador Sanders responding to some

73
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 1: of them. So you know, ironically, I don't have a

74
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 1: whole lot to say about that, so they just don't

75
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 1: like to get into it. I do have a few

76
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 1: things to say about how I feel. So I'm reading

77
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 1: the Max Olson piece and I think a lot of

78
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 1: it sucks, just the details, just the overall way that

79
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 1: things have been handled out there. I'm gonna get to

80
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: why that doesn't matter in a second, So hold on

81
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 1: before you go type in all caps in the comments section.

82
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 1: I think it sucks. What I think sucks about it

83
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 1: is not that Dion came in and cut a lot

84
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 1: of guys loose. That's gonna happen. It's gonna happen more

85
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 1: so now in today's college football, and especially more so

86
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 1: at a program like Colorado maybe than in years past

87
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 1: it would have anywhere else. I'm a believer that doing

88
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 1: business and having basic respect for humans don't have to

89
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 1: be mutually exclusive. So if I'm Dion, I would have

90
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 1: come into Colorado and cut a lot of kids loose.

91
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 1: I don't necessarily know that I would have gone about

92
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 1: it the exact way he did. Now here's the follow up.

93
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 1: I'll say it so you don't have to Well, Josh,

94
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:36,720
Speaker 1: you don't have to worry about it. No one's giving

95
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:38,720
Speaker 1: you the keys to a program. You're not Deon Sanders.

96
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,279
Speaker 1: He is. You're right about all that. I'm not refuting

97
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 1: any of that. I'm telling you since this is my show,

98
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: and I presume you come here to listen to me

99
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 1: talk about how I feel about things. I hated those details,

100
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,720
Speaker 1: those aspects of it. But here is part two of that. Now.

101
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 1: Part two is this is essentially semi pro ball. Now

102
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 1: I said this when Dion took the job. I said

103
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 1: that something he was about to do was gonna really

104
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,279
Speaker 1: exclamate something that I don't think a lot of folks

105
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 1: realized was happening with college football. A lot of things

106
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 1: were happening in the way of players' rights, a lot

107
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 1: of things were happening with NIL. A lot of things,

108
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 1: in other words, were happening that benefited players. This has

109
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,159
Speaker 1: been happening for a while. This is not Dion's doing,

110
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,479
Speaker 1: by the way, this is a college football thing. But

111
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 1: it led to Dion. It led to something he's doing.

112
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 1: So we enter the era of NIL in the portal, right,

113
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 1: and guys are making money legally that they used to

114
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: not be able to make. And guys have freedom to move,

115
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 1: and guys are basically getting a whole lot of benefit

116
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: that comes with being a high level college football player.

117
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 1: And so you got cotton candy in one hand and

118
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,280
Speaker 1: you got lollipop in the other hand. And for a

119
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 1: little while, it was like summer of love vibes. It was, man,

120
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,839
Speaker 1: what could go wrong? Well, here's what could go wrong.

121
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,840
Speaker 1: When you get that on the front end, there's gonna

122
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:52,720
Speaker 1: be some things on the back end that maybe don't

123
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 1: taste so good and don't sound and look so good.

124
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 1: And that is cutthroat business being done, maybe at your expense.

125
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:01,279
Speaker 1: And so when d I took the job at Colorado

126
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 1: and he made no bones about what he was about

127
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 1: to do, I said on the show, I remember Colin

128
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,040
Speaker 1: and Jess I said it like two years ago. Some

129
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 1: stuff that makes you very uncomfortable is probably about to happen,

130
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,599
Speaker 1: but this is the era for it to happen. In

131
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 1: you claimed some people claimed that they wanted this structure,

132
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 1: you know, and they wanted a semi pro model for

133
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:24,800
Speaker 1: college athletics. And so that's the downside. You wanted the

134
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 1: benefits of an adult, You're gonna get treated like an adult.

135
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:29,599
Speaker 1: And boss man doesn't have to be nice to you,

136
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 1: doesn't have to care about your feelings. I could look

137
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 1: on from Nashville and I could look out it bolder

138
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 1: and say, man, I wish he'd be a little nicer

139
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 1: about this, But all that is is my opinion. He

140
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 1: doesn't have to be that way if he doesn't want

141
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:45,160
Speaker 1: to be that way. And so That's how it is.

142
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,599
Speaker 1: My point is regardless of what anyone's opinion on it is,

143
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 1: including mine. But I saw someone earlier today ask me

144
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 1: about Colorado's program. I was going to talk about it

145
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,360
Speaker 1: on the show anyway, but I think it was Blake.

146
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,239
Speaker 1: Blake goes back and forth with us fair amount. Blake

147
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 1: said something along the lines of, what do you think

148
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 1: about Colorado's program. I don't think Colorado has a program.

149
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 1: I think Colorado has an experiment currently underway in Boulder.

150
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 1: Like That's how I view them. These numbers are insane.

151
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 1: Dion brought in seventy two guys in the class of

152
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three. When you account for recruiting and portal

153
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 1: do you understand what I just said, You got eighty

154
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 1: five scholarships. He brought in seventy two guys in one cycle,

155
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 1: just a mind blowing, unheard of number. Forty four of

156
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 1: them are gone a year later. That is sixty one

157
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 1: percent of the seventy two he brought in. He brought

158
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,760
Speaker 1: in a team, they portaled in and recruited in, an

159
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 1: entire football team, and sixty one percent of them are

160
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 1: gone a year later. Those aren't guys he inherited By

161
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 1: the way, those are guys that he picked and his

162
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: staff picked and they brought in. So sixty one percent

163
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 1: of those are gone. Thirty four fifty one transfers are gone.

164
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 1: Ten of twenty one recruits are gone, including the two

165
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 1: highest ranked guys. So it's not a program. That's not

166
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,080
Speaker 1: a program at least the likes of which we've ever known.

167
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 1: That's an experiment they are trying in a different way

168
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 1: than it's ever been done before. I have no idea

169
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 1: where the synergy and togetherness and culture and basically all

170
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 1: the intangibles that go to define a program even come

171
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 1: from going about it that way. It ain't my program,

172
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 1: it's his program. But I will not really call it

173
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 1: a program as much as I view it an experiment.

174
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 1: But I'll tell you what I do appreciate. There's some

175
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 1: stuff here I don't like. What I do appreciate is

176
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 1: Dion Sanders is authentically himself, and I don't have to

177
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,280
Speaker 1: like it all aspects of it. Some of it I

178
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 1: do like, some of it I don't like. I don't

179
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 1: have to like all of it, but he's authentically himself.

180
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:47,679
Speaker 1: We do have ourselves here. A guy who does not

181
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 1: have to apologize to anyone, he doesn't need the job,

182
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 1: and so, for better or for worse, if you're just

183
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 1: in this for entertainment, if you just want to prop

184
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 1: the feed up and pop the poor and sit back

185
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 1: and put on your three D glasses and enjoy a show.

186
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 1: Colorado and Dion, that's your show. Here's my final thought

187
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,200
Speaker 1: on it. I think I said this once before, I'll

188
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,720
Speaker 1: say it again. One of the things that frustrates me

189
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 1: the most is when people run their mouth and they

190
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,560
Speaker 1: never have to back it up. Well, that is not

191
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 1: Deon Sanders, that is not Colorado. As long as they

192
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 1: got to tee it up in the fall, as long

193
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 1: as they got to play twelve in the fall, I'm

194
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 1: fine with anything that's said in May is run your

195
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 1: mouth all you want to. You can represent yourself any

196
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 1: way you want to, and carry yourself any way you

197
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,319
Speaker 1: want to, as long as you gotta play it. As

198
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:38,840
Speaker 1: long as Fall Saturdays are gonna come and you're gonna

199
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 1: be involved twelve times Fall Saturdays will tell the story. Colin,

200
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:45,439
Speaker 1: could you throw their schedule up one more time? Because

201
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:47,680
Speaker 1: they're entering the Big twelve this year, they do not

202
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 1: have an easy schedule. By Big Twelve standards. A lot

203
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:53,080
Speaker 1: of you have noticed, though, they don't open in Big

204
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 1: twelve play, do they They open against North Dakota State, that's

205
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 1: a game. They go to Nebraska week two, got Colorado

206
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 1: State on the road week three, and then it's Big

207
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 1: twelve play, and it's Big twelve play, and it's Big

208
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 1: twelve play. And what I've said about the Big Twelve

209
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 1: as it relates to Colorado, I'll say one more time.

210
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 1: I think they could have an extremely tough time this year.

211
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 1: And the reason is not because of anyone's attitude. The

212
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 1: reason is not because anything anyone's tweeted. It's because I

213
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:25,680
Speaker 1: don't think Colorado has a program. And conversely, they're gonna

214
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 1: play week after week Kansas State, Cincinnati, Utah, Kansas. They're

215
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 1: gonna play week after week against teams that have known

216
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 1: for a long time. They're not recruiting five stars, they're

217
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 1: not landing the best of the best. Hardly any of

218
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 1: these teams even crack the top twenty in recruiting. That's

219
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,679
Speaker 1: not a good thing for you. Actually, that's a bad thing,

220
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:46,640
Speaker 1: cause while they may not have a ton of first

221
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 1: round NFL talent on their roster, they've more than learned

222
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:54,360
Speaker 1: how to make up for that. It's called culture. It's

223
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 1: basically like playing eight or nine really really tightly wound

224
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:03,559
Speaker 1: rubber band balls. There's no looseness, like they are rock solid,

225
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,720
Speaker 1: and everyone's arm in arm and everyone's together. And you're

226
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 1: not playing a whole bunch of true freshmen. You're playing

227
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 1: a bunch of fourth and fifth year guys, and they've

228
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 1: been through the wars and they've been there together. And

229
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 1: you're playing grown men, grown men who know how to

230
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:19,839
Speaker 1: play team football, and you're essentially mercenarying a team together

231
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 1: every year to try and go win in that environment.

232
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:25,720
Speaker 1: It's a great experiment. It's fun to watch. It's a

233
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 1: great experiment. No one's ever tried to do this before.

234
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,199
Speaker 1: I don't have ultra high hopes for what they'll accomplish

235
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 1: this fall. And if it starts going sideways this fall,

236
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 1: you better be really mentally tough. If you're mentally tough

237
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 1: enough to talk in spring and then folks start beating

238
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 1: you upside the head, you better be ready to take

239
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 1: it in the fall, because if you're not, that is

240
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 1: the longest twelve weeks that you will ever live in

241
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,320
Speaker 1: your life, at least in terms of sports. That is

242
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,679
Speaker 1: a long twelve weeks. Man. If you're already out of

243
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 1: Bowld contention and you look up in man, we're not

244
00:11:56,480 --> 00:12:01,680
Speaker 1: even Halloween yet. Yeah, people suffer that every year. The

245
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 1: difference is the teams that already find themselves out of

246
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 1: relevancy and contention by Halloween normally don't keep the crosshairs

247
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,160
Speaker 1: on their back throughout Thanksgiving. And that will be Colorado

248
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 1: no matter how the year goes. This year, they're over

249
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 1: under win totals five and a half. So if they

250
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 1: make a Bowl game, they have hit the over Will

251
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 1: they will they? Anyone? Let's move on. I do want

252
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 1: to mix in one update here, gas station Recruiting Wars update.

253
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:31,599
Speaker 1: I don't have a major update for you tonight. I

254
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 1: will have a major update for you Sunday because big

255
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:36,320
Speaker 1: meetings are happening tomorrow. And if you don't know what

256
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 1: I'm talking about, which is fair because not everyone can

257
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 1: tune into every show this time of year, I don't

258
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 1: know what else to tell you. We have a about

259
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 1: a nine way gas station recruitment bidding war currently underway,

260
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 1: and I am fielding offers and I am listening to proposals,

261
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 1: and I am meeting face to face with dare I say,

262
00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 1: management from some of these companies, and there is a

263
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:03,599
Speaker 1: favorite and that favorite has shifted a few times. But

264
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,839
Speaker 1: big meetings coming over the next couple of days. Where

265
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,679
Speaker 1: will we as a Pate State family, where will we

266
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,320
Speaker 1: take our talents? And how much free stuff can I

267
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 1: get you, guys, Because I know gas ain't free. I

268
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 1: know it ain't, but I also know that, man, some

269
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:20,320
Speaker 1: of those Academy gift cards have come in handy in

270
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 1: the past. Gas cards probably come in handy as well.

271
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,839
Speaker 1: So I'm working for us. Don't worry. I'm working for us.

272
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 1: We're gonna have some fun announcements coming up in the meantime.

273
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 1: I can't believe it, Jesse Colin, you would never do

274
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 1: this to me. But I've got people in my life, okay,

275
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:41,560
Speaker 1: who claim to be friends. They claim to be my friends.

276
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 1: These people, in some cases, one of these people have

277
00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 1: had me in their wedding, and yet they're calling me

278
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 1: at seven thirteen on a Thursday night, knowing full well

279
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 1: where I am, or at least I think I do

280
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 1: you think you know someone? Man? Thank you, guys for

281
00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,120
Speaker 1: being more respectful than some of my quote unquote friends

282
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 1: are to me. The college football Playoff seems to have

283
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,320
Speaker 1: some issues before it gets off the ground. Here. You know,

284
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 1: we're entering the expansion era, the twelve team era, and

285
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:14,720
Speaker 1: I've seen some people, Ross Dellinger most recently, writing some

286
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 1: very fascinating literature on the old Internet about what some

287
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 1: of the hang ups already are behind the scenes. And

288
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 1: I am telling you, as I've told you many times,

289
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 1: it's like a yeah, absolutely, Like really it took this long.

290
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:32,359
Speaker 1: Stop me where you've heard this before? First round rematches

291
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 1: going to be a problem. And this is just Dellinger

292
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 1: quoting anonymous sources, most likely commissioners from different conferences. First

293
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 1: round rematches could be a problem. Yeah, they could since

294
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 1: twenty fourteen. If we plugged in the new format, since

295
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 1: twenty fourteen, we would have had seven first round rematches

296
00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 1: of games that either happened in the regular season or

297
00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 1: as recently as conference championship weekend. And oh, by the way,

298
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 1: that's not even to broach the whole three game threat

299
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 1: as I like to call it. And that's that situation

300
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 1: where since everyone's doing away with divisions, which I'm okay with,

301
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 1: you have the threat of teams playing each other three times.

302
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 1: Here's how easy that would be. Bama and Georgia play

303
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 1: this year. Let's say Bama wins the first game. Let's

304
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,840
Speaker 1: say they face off in Atlanta, Georgia wins the second game, whatever,

305
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 1: I don't care, but both of them make the playoff.

306
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 1: They could face off a third time three times. Ohio

307
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 1: State Michigan. You're not even talking about long shots here,

308
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 1: Ohio State Michigan. Not only are they gonna play the

309
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 1: last week of the season this year and for the

310
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:39,200
Speaker 1: first time, potentially play again in the Big Ten title

311
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 1: game because divisions are gone, they could play a third

312
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 1: time in the playoff. So yeah, I'd call that a

313
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 1: potential hang up. Auto bids, by the way, here's another

314
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 1: hang up that actually is the end of a sentence.

315
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,640
Speaker 1: Auto bids themselves are a hang up because I hate

316
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 1: auto bids, but some of you do support auto bids

317
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 1: because I know what the proposal is on your side.

318
00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 1: I've listened to you guys, and you make sense. I

319
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 1: just don't like it. The proposal, by the way, for

320
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 1: autobids is we got to make sure we let certain

321
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 1: teams in from certain parts of the country for the

322
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,400
Speaker 1: sake of inclusion, or else it just becomes an SEC

323
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 1: Big ten invitational. Well, yeah, that's where most of the

324
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 1: good teams are. That's where most of the high level

325
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 1: teams are. I don't really know how to counter that

326
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 1: if if we're actually doing it the way of the

327
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 1: auto bid, that's the definition of an invitational, is it

328
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 1: not that you're completely taking the ice cream cone that

329
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,520
Speaker 1: is merit and putting it in the microwave and it

330
00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 1: melts all over the place. So anyway, auto bids are

331
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:40,640
Speaker 1: going to lead to inferior teams getting first round byes.

332
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 1: I don't need to take you back any further than

333
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one. I got nothing against Pitt. I got

334
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:48,440
Speaker 1: nothing against Pat Nardoozi. But the fact that the twenty

335
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,200
Speaker 1: twenty one Pitt Panthers would have had a first round

336
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,040
Speaker 1: by despite being ranked twelfth in the country at the

337
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:57,240
Speaker 1: end of the year is a joke. It's ridiculous, and

338
00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 1: it's not deserved. It's only deserved because they happen to

339
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:04,679
Speaker 1: be plopped down in an inferior conference. And conversely, I

340
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:06,159
Speaker 1: take that same team, put them in the Big ten

341
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 1: of the SEC. They're not sniffing the conference title. So

342
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:11,679
Speaker 1: for many reasons, I'm not a fan of autobids. But

343
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:13,840
Speaker 1: there's one that a lot of people are starting to realize,

344
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 1: also starting to be realized by the rest of the country,

345
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:21,119
Speaker 1: and had the drum beaten on this program for a

346
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:24,600
Speaker 1: long time. Is the whole G five matter. This has

347
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,439
Speaker 1: been a hot topic around here lately because I am

348
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,640
Speaker 1: the devil reincarnate, at least when it comes to certain

349
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 1: G five circles, because I've had the audacity to claim

350
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:35,840
Speaker 1: that maybe it's not so smart to have one hundred

351
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:38,440
Speaker 1: and thirty four teams playing for the same title. Maybe

352
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,760
Speaker 1: we ought to compartmentalize this thing. Maybe we ought to

353
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 1: have tears and not pretend like South Alabama plays the

354
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 1: same support as Alabama. South Alabama getting tired of me

355
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 1: taking shots at them. I'm not taking shots. I just

356
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:53,359
Speaker 1: happened to always have South Alabama at the forefront of

357
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,879
Speaker 1: my brain, tip of my tongue, etc. But anyway, so

358
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,160
Speaker 1: here's one of the hurdles that a lot of folks

359
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 1: are starting to realize about the new twelve team playoff.

360
00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:03,520
Speaker 1: The G five is gonna get a team in no

361
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 1: matter what, at least one team in no matter what.

362
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:11,160
Speaker 1: Why is that a problem? You may ask? Six out

363
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 1: of the last ten highest rated G five Conference champs

364
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:18,440
Speaker 1: finished outside the top twelve. You know what that means, friends,

365
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:22,240
Speaker 1: That means that you're gonna have a team ranked seventeenth,

366
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 1: as Memphis was in twenty nineteen make the playoff. Twulane

367
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,680
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two finished the season ranked sixteenth, but josh,

368
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,760
Speaker 1: they beat usc They finished the season ranked sixteenth. I

369
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 1: don't care what happened after they made it. In last year,

370
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:39,720
Speaker 1: Liberty finished the season twenty third. But since that's the

371
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:44,439
Speaker 1: highest ranked G five Conference champ, guess what Liberty, barely

372
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,840
Speaker 1: in the top twenty five is in the playoff if

373
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 1: this current format was in place last year. Again, it's

374
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,639
Speaker 1: a joke. It's complete joke to me, at least in

375
00:18:55,680 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 1: the way I prefer things personally. I also I wonder

376
00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:03,639
Speaker 1: how strength of record will be interpreted. I had Stats

377
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:06,639
Speaker 1: and Info hand me a very peculiar number today, second

378
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:08,680
Speaker 1: paper pop this segment. That's how you know it's bad.

379
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,399
Speaker 1: We don't have preseason rankings out yet, even the JP

380
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:16,400
Speaker 1: Poles in Hibernation, but we do have a partnership with FanDuel,

381
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 1: and so I had FanDuel just kick me over the

382
00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:22,919
Speaker 1: preseason odds to win the playoff. It's not perfect, but

383
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 1: it's a fairly decent snapshot if you want to loosely

384
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:29,680
Speaker 1: just kind of facially understand what the top twenty five

385
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,920
Speaker 1: could look like this year. So we take the top

386
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 1: twenty five in the fan duel odds to win the playoff.

387
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 1: The SEC this year will have ninety matchups where their

388
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:46,160
Speaker 1: teams face top twenty five opponents. The Big Twelve will

389
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:53,119
Speaker 1: have thirty two of those. Georgia Tech. Actually, I'm gonna apause, Jesse,

390
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:54,239
Speaker 1: because I want to make sure I get it right,

391
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 1: because we may clip this later. You know what. Forget

392
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,880
Speaker 1: about the Big Twelve piece, scratch the SEC and two

393
00:19:59,880 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 1: that twenty four will have ninety matchups where their teams

394
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:07,600
Speaker 1: face top twenty five opposition. Georgia Tech is the only

395
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:11,720
Speaker 1: other team in all of power For that fits that description.

396
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,440
Speaker 1: You take the rest of the country and there's only

397
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 1: one team that faces at least six top twenty five teams.

398
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,879
Speaker 1: I think that was the stat there. What a bouchery

399
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:23,440
Speaker 1: of a stat that I delivered because I wrote it

400
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 1: down wrong. Nine SEC teams, nine of them this year

401
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:30,879
Speaker 1: face six plus top twenty five teams. Georgia Tech's the

402
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:34,000
Speaker 1: only one outside of the entire SEC and the rest

403
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 1: of the power for that fits that description. So yeah,

404
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:40,560
Speaker 1: some issues here, some issues, some hurdles. Now, I know

405
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,200
Speaker 1: my audience and I know not all of you think

406
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,639
Speaker 1: that these are issues. In fact, some people think the

407
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:50,120
Speaker 1: fact that Pitt in twenty twenty one, despite being ranked twelfth,

408
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 1: would have had a first round by as a conference

409
00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:54,080
Speaker 1: chap they think that's a good thing because they think

410
00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:58,400
Speaker 1: that incentivizes winning your conference. I think there are other

411
00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:02,639
Speaker 1: ways to incent centiviz conferences. That's my personal opinion, but

412
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 1: I digress. Secondly, you think it's a good thing that

413
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:10,200
Speaker 1: the G five will have representation, no matter how bad.

414
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 1: Relatively speaking, Their conference champ is highest rank conference champ.

415
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,159
Speaker 1: We just disagree on these things. It has happened before,

416
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,399
Speaker 1: but it will create a lot of conversation. Because I

417
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 1: am a pretty firm believer that even as we sit

418
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:25,960
Speaker 1: here it's May second, and this thing's happening this year,

419
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 1: I still believe it's sneaking up on a lot of people.

420
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:33,960
Speaker 1: There's so much going on outside of the fence of

421
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,800
Speaker 1: college football. There's so much going on with off the

422
00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 1: field headlines. It's almost like playoff expansion, a lot of

423
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:42,160
Speaker 1: you wanted it for a long time. It's almost taking

424
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 1: a back seat, and all of a sudden it's gonna

425
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,400
Speaker 1: be here and people are gonna find themselves in week

426
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,359
Speaker 1: eight saying hold on, wait, wait the rules are what now?

427
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 1: Who gets to make it? Yeah, it's coming, it's coming now.

428
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 1: Some of us, myself and several of you, we don't

429
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 1: really focus on the playoffs so much as we do

430
00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:08,399
Speaker 1: the regular season, and tailgating really huge in these parts

431
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:12,960
Speaker 1: Peyton State. Notwithstanding, I love when we go to games

432
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 1: every Saturday and we meander our way through the tailgating

433
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 1: areas because I get to count how many Academy sports

434
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 1: and outdoors tents there are, and how many academy chairs

435
00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 1: there are. And then just the gold mine is when

436
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,639
Speaker 1: we walk through a tailgate and not only do you

437
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:32,359
Speaker 1: offer us food, which always comes in handy have vegan

438
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,120
Speaker 1: options for Gelbie, please, But not only do you offer

439
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,879
Speaker 1: us food, some of you say hey, hey, and then

440
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 1: I'll look over and you point to the back of

441
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:43,200
Speaker 1: the chair. Academy. It's just brand synergy. It's a wonderful,

442
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 1: wonderful thing when we have it, and you can have

443
00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 1: it by doing something as simple as just shopping at

444
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 1: Academy Sports and Outdoors. And I know what you're thinking.

445
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 1: You're thinking, well, i'd love to, but I mean the

446
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,879
Speaker 1: closest ones, like ninety miles up the road. That's true,

447
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 1: could be true for you. But the closest Internet connection

448
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,080
Speaker 1: is maybe even in the palm of your hand right now,

449
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 1: or you know, on the desktop over there. Academy dot com.

450
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 1: They got your hookup. Academy longtime partner of ours. They

451
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,679
Speaker 1: help keep the show free and we sincerely appreciate them.

452
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,679
Speaker 1: Academy doesn't have gas stations, or else they would be

453
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,679
Speaker 1: in the gas station recruiting war. But Academy doesn't have

454
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 1: to be in any recruiting war. We're already in business

455
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 1: with them. So they did it. They did it the

456
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,800
Speaker 1: easy way. They got in. They beat the rush, and

457
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,399
Speaker 1: we appreciate them for that. This is going to be

458
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:32,560
Speaker 1: a bad segment for me, this part of the show.

459
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,359
Speaker 1: I'm not even going to peel the label off the water.

460
00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:40,200
Speaker 1: That's how distraught I am. So public spring Water, this

461
00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:42,240
Speaker 1: is your time. You didn't pay for it, but here's

462
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:49,399
Speaker 1: some placement on the set. I would ask my family

463
00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:50,960
Speaker 1: and friends to please turn the show off for the

464
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 1: next ten minutes. It's gonna be horrific. So the first

465
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:56,879
Speaker 1: thing I want to do, Colin, I want you to

466
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 1: cut all this out when we put the show. We'll

467
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 1: put the clip up later. I do want to tell you,

468
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:05,800
Speaker 1: before I go down a dark, lonely road of owning

469
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 1: a bad prediction, that there is stuff happening in the

470
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 1: portal today. So here's what we're gonna do. I'm gonna

471
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,159
Speaker 1: get you the latest portal intel, and then I'm gonna

472
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:19,399
Speaker 1: just do some very regrettable things on air. So a

473
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 1: lot happening in the transfer portal. The doors closed, so

474
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 1: there's no more movement happening into the portal. However, guys

475
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,080
Speaker 1: who were already in the portal can stay in there

476
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:30,440
Speaker 1: as long as they want to until they find a

477
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:34,400
Speaker 1: new home. Jason Zandemela was a name we had been watching.

478
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 1: He was a top interior offensive lineman in the twenty

479
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:40,600
Speaker 1: twenty four cycle. He committed to USC went through spring.

480
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 1: He's already left USC number two overall available player in

481
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 1: the spring portal six three three oh six. We thought

482
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:51,440
Speaker 1: Florida had a commanding lead there. We knew we wanted

483
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:54,280
Speaker 1: to get closer to home. Well, he's committed to Florida,

484
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:58,160
Speaker 1: and so that's the number seven overall transfer, number one

485
00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:00,960
Speaker 1: interior offensive line in Portal and he was number forty

486
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 1: six overall kid in the twenty twenty four cycle. So

487
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:06,480
Speaker 1: that's a nice little pickup. Now, that's a nice little

488
00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:08,840
Speaker 1: pick up there for the Florida Gators staff right here

489
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:10,919
Speaker 1: at the end of the portal cycle. Staying in the

490
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,439
Speaker 1: Sunshine State for a second, you seef man, Has anyone

491
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,680
Speaker 1: been paying attention to this? You seef and Gus Malson

492
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:22,359
Speaker 1: they're rolling, they're rolling in the portal, you seef. I

493
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,240
Speaker 1: was talking with Chuck Oliver on his show today and

494
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:28,680
Speaker 1: I said, it'd be one thing if they got Big

495
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:32,119
Speaker 1: twelve at minutes and then they just rested on their laurels.

496
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,200
Speaker 1: They said, Hey, we're in the Big twelve. Now let's

497
00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 1: cash a bigger check. We're good. You see s done.

498
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:40,800
Speaker 1: The opposite, UCF saw a crack in the power for

499
00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 1: a door, and then they kicked the thing down and

500
00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:45,680
Speaker 1: they got themselves in the Big twelve. And then they said,

501
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:50,000
Speaker 1: we're reinvesting, and they got an immaculate new facility that

502
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,280
Speaker 1: they're about to break ground on. But in the meantime,

503
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:57,440
Speaker 1: signing highest ranked recruiting classes ever, highest ranked portal classes ever.

504
00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 1: Ja Curry Brown, the quarterback from Miami. He's committed to UCF.

505
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,400
Speaker 1: So that gives Gus Malzon. By the way, Jae Currie

506
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:08,000
Speaker 1: Brown and kJ Jefferson is there now. We were just

507
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 1: down there with Malason last month and he said it

508
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 1: off air and on air he said, there is no

509
00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:15,600
Speaker 1: other cam Newton. Okay, there never will be another one

510
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:18,720
Speaker 1: of him. But in terms of raw skill set, that's

511
00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:21,080
Speaker 1: what we're looking to acquire, and we got some of

512
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 1: it in kJ. Jae Curry Brown's got a lot of

513
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:26,720
Speaker 1: what has been very dangerous if Gus Malzon has it

514
00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 1: at his disposal in the past. So there's that. There's

515
00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 1: Penny Boone, who was the running back who was at

516
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,199
Speaker 1: Louisville for a hot minute, but you probably know him

517
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:36,520
Speaker 1: if you watch a lot of mac ball as the

518
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:39,040
Speaker 1: mac Offensive Player of the Year at Toledo last year

519
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 1: running back over fourteen hundred yards fifteen touchdowns. And these

520
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 1: guys are just making their way to Orlando, not to

521
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:47,440
Speaker 1: go to Disney World either, but they are going down

522
00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:51,119
Speaker 1: there to have fun. So Central Florida again not leaning

523
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,720
Speaker 1: back in the lawn chair now that they're a power

524
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:57,439
Speaker 1: for resident. Peyton Woodyard is in the portal. He was

525
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 1: a dB at Alabama for Star Safety. Out of the

526
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:02,800
Speaker 1: past cycle. He was in an early enroll league, so

527
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:05,919
Speaker 1: he went through spring there. I'm a fan of Peyton Woodard,

528
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:10,040
Speaker 1: fan of him family, Just really good dude. Oregon is

529
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:13,560
Speaker 1: the clear favorite here getting crystal Ball predictions from Oregon

530
00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:16,440
Speaker 1: even as we speak. Oregon's currently got the number three

531
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:19,760
Speaker 1: portal class. If they add him, and I expect that

532
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 1: they will, that would be the seventh Blue Chipper just

533
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:26,920
Speaker 1: in the portal class for Oregon this cycle. Not only

534
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:30,000
Speaker 1: are they adding starters like I don't know if Woodyard

535
00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:32,200
Speaker 1: would start for them, as much as they're just now

536
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,680
Speaker 1: portaling in some depth. Just a fascinating thing to watch

537
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 1: because that's that's something only the big boys do. To

538
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:44,119
Speaker 1: Carrio Davis is not leaving Arizona. How about this. He

539
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: remains at Arizona. He's a six four hundred and eighty

540
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:49,520
Speaker 1: five pound corner second team All Pac twelve last year.

541
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 1: This is fascinating. So Brent Brennan comes there from San

542
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:57,000
Speaker 1: Jose State and the immediate fear amongst several me included

543
00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 1: was Noah Fafida the quarterback, was gonna lead, and McMillan,

544
00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 1: the big wide receiver, was gonna leave. Davis is their

545
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 1: best defensive player. Thought they may lose him. They kept

546
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:10,920
Speaker 1: all three of them. And I don't know that that's

547
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:14,359
Speaker 1: a story that's getting enough attention right now. Arizona's, you know,

548
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 1: a little on the back burner. Not a prime National

549
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:20,200
Speaker 1: Championship contending team at least we don't think. But that's

550
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,480
Speaker 1: a big deal. Those guys can change games this year

551
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:25,040
Speaker 1: and they're over underwent total even with the new staff,

552
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,159
Speaker 1: is sneakily all the way up there at seven and

553
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:31,720
Speaker 1: a half. I know they had some attrition offensive line

554
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 1: in particular. I think they had some attrition there. But

555
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 1: let's just let's see, let's see what ad Arizona can

556
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:38,720
Speaker 1: do this year. They kept some big time players there.

557
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 1: If you need dB help, I'm not saying that it's

558
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:45,640
Speaker 1: the end all be all, that's the cure all or whatever,

559
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:51,120
Speaker 1: but there is there is at least some some worthwhile

560
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 1: options still to pick through in the portal when it

561
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 1: comes to dB. King Mack was at Penn State, for example,

562
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:00,400
Speaker 1: that's a former top one hundred CAID in the twenty

563
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 1: twenty three cycle, Obama is going to get a visit there.

564
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 1: I know Old miss has been making some moves for

565
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:09,160
Speaker 1: the kid out of Houston really late this afternoon. Crystal

566
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 1: Ball favorite there, according to Matt Zenitz. So there's a

567
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:14,120
Speaker 1: lot going on, Like there's a lot of portal movements

568
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:17,320
Speaker 1: still happening. It's just guys aren't entering it anymore. So

569
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 1: keep an eye because you know as well as I do,

570
00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:23,080
Speaker 1: we watch these games in the fall and it gets

571
00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter and it's like, can someone get a

572
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 1: fingertip on a ball to knock it incomplete? Can someone

573
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:33,520
Speaker 1: make one more yard? And it could very well be

574
00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:36,400
Speaker 1: the guy you just picked up, like Penny Boone, could

575
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:39,479
Speaker 1: go to UCF and decide two games this fall. So

576
00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,040
Speaker 1: you gotta be paying attention to this stuff now, especially

577
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:43,960
Speaker 1: if any of you bet on this, you better be

578
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 1: paying attention to what guys are doing in the portal. Okay,

579
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:52,400
Speaker 1: So that's that this is This is a terrible, terrible

580
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 1: part of the show. I don't like being wrong. It's terrible.

581
00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 1: I know no one likes being wrong, but I really

582
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 1: hate it, like at a cellular level, being wrong, making

583
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:07,440
Speaker 1: wrong predictions, on this show is something that I detest

584
00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 1: beyond all imagination. But I remember long ago when I

585
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 1: was down in Columbus, Georgia working in the fabric warehouse.

586
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 1: I would listen to sports talk radio all day sun

587
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 1: up to whatever time we got out of there close

588
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:25,160
Speaker 1: to sundown, and it would always entertain me. But I

589
00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:29,360
Speaker 1: used to always get mad about the sports media industry

590
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 1: that they got to call out coaches for being wrong

591
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 1: or losing, or making bad decisions and play calls, but

592
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 1: they never got held accountable. You could make as many

593
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:40,920
Speaker 1: wrong predictions as you wanted to, you can make as

594
00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:43,680
Speaker 1: many outlandish statements as you wanted to because you never

595
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 1: had to have a press conference. No one ever held

596
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:47,920
Speaker 1: you accountable. And I always said to myself, man, if

597
00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 1: I ever get myself a microphone, I'm gonna do that.

598
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,920
Speaker 1: And so here at Payton State, we believe in bullying,

599
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 1: we believe in holding the powerful to account, and we

600
00:30:56,760 --> 00:31:00,640
Speaker 1: believe in verbal harassment if it takes that. But mainly

601
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 1: we believe that if you make a prediction and it

602
00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:06,160
Speaker 1: crashes and burns, you got to own it. And I

603
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 1: hate this. I hate doing this because let's just be real,

604
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:11,240
Speaker 1: I'm not wrong a whole lot. Not a lot of

605
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:12,840
Speaker 1: head nods in here, but I'm going to say it,

606
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:16,040
Speaker 1: but when we whiff, when I whiff on a prediction,

607
00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 1: I will own it. And recently I made one of

608
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 1: the worst in the history of this show. And so,

609
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:25,120
Speaker 1: as is tradition, we got to pop on the clown

610
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 1: nose it. We are about to see the harsh, violent

611
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 1: reality of the no Rules Transfer Portal era on full

612
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:38,040
Speaker 1: display later this month. I'm not overstating this. It will

613
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 1: be the wildest transfer Portal era that you've ever seen,

614
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 1: and it's gonna completely gut some of your teams. Just

615
00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:51,440
Speaker 1: call it like it is. Well, teams did not get gutted.

616
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,760
Speaker 1: Chaos was not seen. I think I know why this

617
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:58,600
Speaker 1: happened to me. I think I know why I got misled.

618
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:02,160
Speaker 1: I don't think I'll let it happen again. But we whiffed.

619
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 1: I whiffed fantastically on this. I know a lot of

620
00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:08,320
Speaker 1: you listen to this show, and you probably heard me

621
00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:10,720
Speaker 1: say that, and you probably went to work the next

622
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:13,720
Speaker 1: day and you told your buddies something similar. And now

623
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 1: your buddies are making fun of you because you were

624
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 1: dumb enough in this case to listen to me, and

625
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:21,719
Speaker 1: so I am trying to have a little fun with it.

626
00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,640
Speaker 1: But I'm a little angry that this happened. So I'm

627
00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:27,000
Speaker 1: owning it. I'm owning it. We screw up around here,

628
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:30,200
Speaker 1: We're going to own it. We're going to rebuild. We

629
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 1: will be better for this. In time, we will surge,

630
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:38,360
Speaker 1: we will thrive. But as Memo once told me, sometimes

631
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:41,239
Speaker 1: a man's got to be down bad today before he

632
00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 1: can be up big tomorrow. And I am down bad today.

633
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:48,280
Speaker 1: So thought it was going to be chaotic. It was not,

634
00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 1: and we screwed it up bad. So there it is.

635
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 1: I hope that someone's enjoying this because I'm not at all.

636
00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:00,120
Speaker 1: Can we move on? Yes, okay, please, let's move on.

637
00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 1: Oh it's like poison. I have to wash it down.

638
00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 1: Oh it's like the content creation version of passing a

639
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,480
Speaker 1: kidney stone. That's what it's like to have to admit

640
00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 1: you were wrong, this fantastically about something, never again, hopefully

641
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:21,440
Speaker 1: never again. Who are the most underrated teams this fault?

642
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:22,920
Speaker 1: Well I don't know that quite yet, but I can

643
00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:24,720
Speaker 1: tell you a few. I have my eye on. West

644
00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:28,000
Speaker 1: Virginia is one of them. West Virginia, I know there's

645
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:29,880
Speaker 1: a lot of drama and intrigue up there about whether

646
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:32,719
Speaker 1: we'll get the cold black uniforms this year, and I

647
00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:35,840
Speaker 1: am paying attention to that with baited breath. But there

648
00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:38,600
Speaker 1: were nine to four last year, yet they're over underwent

649
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:41,400
Speaker 1: totals only six and a half for this upcoming season.

650
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:45,840
Speaker 1: So I look at that and I think, shouldn't that

651
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:48,840
Speaker 1: be a little north of seven? Maybe? Possibly? I don't know.

652
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:52,280
Speaker 1: They're eighth on defense, or at least they got eight

653
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:55,440
Speaker 1: returning with starting experience. They're twenty fourth in overall returning production,

654
00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 1: and they're third offensively in returning production. Like Garrett Green's

655
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:03,120
Speaker 1: are really solid dual threat quarterback accuracy needs to improve.

656
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:06,920
Speaker 1: But last year they won nine games, they were only

657
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:11,319
Speaker 1: fiftieth in turnover margin. So sometimes teams overachieve because they're

658
00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:14,520
Speaker 1: just like plus twenty for whatever reason and turnover margin

659
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,200
Speaker 1: and they crashed back to Earth the next year. I

660
00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:19,880
Speaker 1: don't think West Virginia is going to crash back to earth.

661
00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:23,360
Speaker 1: They got a really tough travel schedule every year because

662
00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:26,239
Speaker 1: of the conference they play in. But ma'am, it's just

663
00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:28,439
Speaker 1: going to be a bunch of one possession games either way.

664
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 1: And I really like an experienced team with experience at

665
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:35,640
Speaker 1: quarterback to be able to handle themselves. There a whole

666
00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:38,279
Speaker 1: lot north of six and a half wins. That's a

667
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 1: totals bet that I've already put in for myself. Nebraska

668
00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:45,359
Speaker 1: also probably underrated still now. They're a five and seven

669
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:48,279
Speaker 1: team last year. Who's over underwent total for this year

670
00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:50,840
Speaker 1: is seven and a half. So let's dive in a

671
00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:52,799
Speaker 1: little bit, go over and look at S and P

672
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:55,959
Speaker 1: plus in the preseason. Number six defense coming into twenty

673
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,839
Speaker 1: twenty four. They've got an elite defensive staff. I've talked

674
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:01,200
Speaker 1: about them ad nauseum, so how much respect I have

675
00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:03,320
Speaker 1: for Tony White and they guys up there. They're number

676
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 1: three in the country in returning production this upcoming year

677
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 1: and the only offensive production. They lost his quarterback and

678
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:14,080
Speaker 1: they needed upheaval at the quarterback position. Insert Dylan Riola.

679
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:16,760
Speaker 1: He's going to be a true freshman. He'll take his lumps.

680
00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:18,640
Speaker 1: But the way I look at it is if I

681
00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:23,080
Speaker 1: get B minus to B level quarterback play from Riola, man,

682
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:24,560
Speaker 1: that's good enough to win more than seven and a

683
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:29,200
Speaker 1: half games. And also, they miss Michigan, they miss Oregon,

684
00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:32,839
Speaker 1: and they miss Penn State in the regular season, so

685
00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:37,600
Speaker 1: I expect fairly significant improvement as well as record improvement

686
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:39,879
Speaker 1: for Matt Rule and the boys this year. They open

687
00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 1: against UTEP, got Colorado week two, and that's gonna have

688
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:44,879
Speaker 1: a lot of eyeballs on it. But like I said,

689
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:48,160
Speaker 1: I think Sunday night or maybe Tuesday when we did

690
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:52,200
Speaker 1: the extra podcast, listen to the beginning of their schedule.

691
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:57,200
Speaker 1: They got UTEP Colorado, Northern Iowa, Illinois at Purdue, Rutgers

692
00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 1: at Indiana. Those are seven games that they are likely

693
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:05,000
Speaker 1: to be favored in. Let me check myself on that.

694
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:08,520
Speaker 1: At least six of seven, perhaps all seven they may

695
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:11,680
Speaker 1: be favored in. It gets a lot tougher at Ohio State,

696
00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:15,279
Speaker 1: Ucla at USC, Wisconsin at Iowa. Kind of like an

697
00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:17,960
Speaker 1: old miss schedule a couple of years ago where you wondered,

698
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:21,720
Speaker 1: can they just take care of the over early? Sometimes

699
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,520
Speaker 1: it didn't work out that way. But ma'am, I think

700
00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:27,520
Speaker 1: Nebraska probably a little bit underrated. Georgia Tech I could

701
00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 1: also call a little bit underrated. Now. The difference with

702
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:34,799
Speaker 1: Georgia Tech is the schedule is it's pretty stiff. I'm

703
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:36,719
Speaker 1: not gonna lie. Plus, you know they've got Georgia every

704
00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:38,879
Speaker 1: single year, but they were seven and six last year.

705
00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:41,680
Speaker 1: Their overrue to win totals five and a half. I

706
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:44,720
Speaker 1: think doing large parts to how tough it is. Haynes

707
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:47,799
Speaker 1: King is still there. That's their quarterback. Their offense top

708
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 1: ten in returning production this year, pretty deep wide receiver room.

709
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:54,759
Speaker 1: Defense was bad last year, one hundred and twenty third

710
00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:57,239
Speaker 1: in yards allowed, I believe something like that. So they

711
00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 1: overhauled their staff on the defensive side. They overhauled their

712
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:03,680
Speaker 1: roster on the defensive side. So kind of the inverse

713
00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:08,319
Speaker 1: of Nebraska in that if I can get I don't know,

714
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:12,400
Speaker 1: C plus to B minus level play defensively, then I

715
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 1: should be good enough to win over five and a

716
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 1: half games. I know what's happening right now. USC fans

717
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:20,000
Speaker 1: are listening and saying, oh oho, so you're just gonna

718
00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:22,080
Speaker 1: blindly assume that they get a lot better because they

719
00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:25,080
Speaker 1: made moves defensively and we don't. We're gonna have this

720
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:29,040
Speaker 1: out you and I No, I'm not blindly assuming. I'm saying,

721
00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:31,480
Speaker 1: you guys aren't trying to win six games out there.

722
00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:33,480
Speaker 1: Georgia Tech's trying to win six games. That would be

723
00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 1: the over and so it's a little bit lower bar

724
00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:38,440
Speaker 1: to clear here. This is the part if you're new

725
00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:41,880
Speaker 1: to the show where I hope to know the audience

726
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:44,719
Speaker 1: so well. I just know what they're saying. I know

727
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:47,200
Speaker 1: what my USC fans are saying right now, because some

728
00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:50,240
Speaker 1: of us aren't even on speaking terms. That's a long summer,

729
00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:52,799
Speaker 1: so we'll be fine, but not even on speaking terms

730
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:54,759
Speaker 1: right now. So don't freak out if you think I'm

731
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:57,440
Speaker 1: talking to myself and have a conversation with myself. It

732
00:37:57,640 --> 00:38:00,839
Speaker 1: just sounds that way. That's not actually what's happening. But yeah,

733
00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 1: schedule is tough. You just saw it there, Colin showed

734
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:05,800
Speaker 1: it to you. But it's doable. I think it's doable.

735
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:09,640
Speaker 1: Iowall state absolutely, they're going over seven and a half.

736
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:13,399
Speaker 1: This is a Matt Campbell revenge here, a good old

737
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:16,840
Speaker 1: mcry as we call it in the business. S and

738
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:19,680
Speaker 1: P plus just flat out has them twenty second in

739
00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:22,040
Speaker 1: the preseason. I don't know whether the j peopole has

740
00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:25,040
Speaker 1: them yet, but just give you an idea in S

741
00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:28,240
Speaker 1: and P plus terms, Iowa state a sandwich between teams

742
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:31,360
Speaker 1: like USC and Miami coming into this year. Did you

743
00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:34,600
Speaker 1: know that do you think that about them. Number two

744
00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 1: team in the country returning production, top five both sides

745
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 1: of the ball in returning production. The vibes in the

746
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:44,640
Speaker 1: building are immaculate. Spend a whole day up there last month.

747
00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:50,279
Speaker 1: Loved everything I experienced, Love everything I felt. Rumors circulating

748
00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:53,600
Speaker 1: on the internet about rock O Becht and Sydney Sweeney,

749
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:57,400
Speaker 1: and I am here to baselessly fan the flames of

750
00:38:57,440 --> 00:39:00,080
Speaker 1: those rumors because I don't care if they're false, ok

751
00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:03,840
Speaker 1: Because when it comes to my quarterback, and rock Oebec

752
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:08,920
Speaker 1: is my quarterback, I will propagate any online rumor it

753
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:12,120
Speaker 1: takes for us to win football games. And by us,

754
00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:15,080
Speaker 1: I mean us, because it's a wee year. It's not

755
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:18,319
Speaker 1: a they. Okay, they went seven and six last year.

756
00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:22,200
Speaker 1: We could win the Big twelve this year. And lastly,

757
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:27,520
Speaker 1: I want you to just take one eye, pick which one.

758
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:31,600
Speaker 1: Take one eye. Just keep it on USF because there's that.

759
00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:34,360
Speaker 1: You know, every year you start to hear a faint

760
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:36,840
Speaker 1: drum beat, kind of a hoof beat off in the distance,

761
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:39,200
Speaker 1: and you start to think to yourself, who is that, Well,

762
00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:43,560
Speaker 1: this year it's USF. USF won seven games last year.

763
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:47,120
Speaker 1: That's tied form most since twenty seventeen. Hey played Alabama

764
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,520
Speaker 1: tight as well, probably one of the more hideous football

765
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:51,319
Speaker 1: games I've seen in the modern era, but at least

766
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:55,239
Speaker 1: played them close. So I don't have an over under

767
00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:57,120
Speaker 1: win total for him because Fandalll hadn't put it out yet.

768
00:39:57,160 --> 00:40:00,759
Speaker 1: Don't worry. That will happen very soon, I am told

769
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:05,440
Speaker 1: usf I would like to ask you, guys, especially in

770
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:08,960
Speaker 1: my G five community, what is the most underrated G

771
00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:13,560
Speaker 1: five team coming into twenty and twenty four. Let's move

772
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:17,640
Speaker 1: it along. I want you to know that over the

773
00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:22,160
Speaker 1: next probably early next week, maybe even on the Sunday Show,

774
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:24,760
Speaker 1: but definitely early next week. If not on the Sunday Show,

775
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:27,880
Speaker 1: I will have an announcement about next week because the

776
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:30,279
Speaker 1: Pate State Speaker series is not done. We just took

777
00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:33,080
Speaker 1: a week off. Gelby has to go home and charges batteries.

778
00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:36,680
Speaker 1: Literally they're dead, and so we're going back out on

779
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:38,319
Speaker 1: the road. Oh, we got a big one next week.

780
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:41,399
Speaker 1: We got a big one next week, and so I'll

781
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:44,040
Speaker 1: be announcing that in due time. And I am going

782
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:48,400
Speaker 1: to once again remind you guys, the way this works

783
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:52,640
Speaker 1: is not I spin the globe, point my finger on

784
00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:54,239
Speaker 1: the map, and say I think we want to go

785
00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:56,440
Speaker 1: here today, just knock on the door, Hey, let us

786
00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:59,360
Speaker 1: in to do an entire live show here and have

787
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:01,840
Speaker 1: your coach for thirty or forty minutes. That's not the

788
00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:05,160
Speaker 1: way it works. They got to invite us fifteen already

789
00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:07,440
Speaker 1: have and we've put some really really good shows in

790
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:10,600
Speaker 1: the canon. We've had several head coaches on the show.

791
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:14,839
Speaker 1: And if someone doesn't want to participate, that's cool, but

792
00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:16,680
Speaker 1: there may be some who do want to and just

793
00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:18,600
Speaker 1: don't get that's how it works. So number one, I'm

794
00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:21,560
Speaker 1: reminding all sids and head coaches who listen, that's how

795
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:24,640
Speaker 1: it works. And number two, if you're a fan base

796
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:26,960
Speaker 1: and you've been asking me when do you come in

797
00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:30,160
Speaker 1: our school, you probably should redirect that energy to tagging

798
00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:34,120
Speaker 1: your folks on these socials and asking them when we're

799
00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:36,480
Speaker 1: coming to their school, because they've got the answer, not me.

800
00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:40,480
Speaker 1: We got several big ones lined up already, but it's

801
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:42,440
Speaker 1: a long summer, so we'll see what else we can

802
00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:45,840
Speaker 1: line up. The Mood Tracker is back tonight because I

803
00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:47,759
Speaker 1: think it's time to talk about Ohio State went up

804
00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:49,759
Speaker 1: there and got a good pulse of their program the

805
00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:52,239
Speaker 1: other day, and the mood tracker is basically when we

806
00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:54,160
Speaker 1: just take the temperature of the fan base. And this

807
00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:57,600
Speaker 1: one's really easy, although I regret to inform you Jesse

808
00:41:57,760 --> 00:42:01,600
Speaker 1: came up with the actual phrase. The mood for Ohio

809
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:04,800
Speaker 1: State is sick of silver. What a first world problem

810
00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:07,480
Speaker 1: to be able to suffer from. There's literally only one

811
00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:10,880
Speaker 1: way to get better than silver, and Michigan's had it

812
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:13,520
Speaker 1: the last three years, so they got to do something

813
00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:15,600
Speaker 1: about that. But the fan base is who we're talking

814
00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:19,160
Speaker 1: about here. Fan base. I think it's being mischaracterized nationally

815
00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:20,800
Speaker 1: a little bit, and I'll get to that in a second,

816
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:23,719
Speaker 1: but you got to be careful with the way you

817
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:26,840
Speaker 1: talk about this whole thing. I think sometimes there is

818
00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:30,359
Speaker 1: a tendency that when you've gotten close repeatedly to where

819
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:33,680
Speaker 1: you want to be, that's like the starting point. Just

820
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:35,520
Speaker 1: assumed that we're going to get at least this far

821
00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:39,319
Speaker 1: next year. And when we were up in Columbus last week,

822
00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:41,080
Speaker 1: I want to say it was I sat down with

823
00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:43,160
Speaker 1: Ryan Day we had him on the show, we actually

824
00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:46,200
Speaker 1: talked about that very thing. There's a train of thought

825
00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:49,319
Speaker 1: out there sometimes in like preview magazine culture, that if

826
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:52,680
Speaker 1: you came really close the year before. People speak as

827
00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:55,319
Speaker 1: if that's where you're starting the next year and you

828
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:57,480
Speaker 1: just got to take that one final step. In reality,

829
00:42:57,520 --> 00:42:59,520
Speaker 1: it's like you try and climb Everest and you get

830
00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:01,600
Speaker 1: five hundred fet in the summit. Don't make it. You

831
00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:04,040
Speaker 1: got to start over from base camp to the next year.

832
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:07,359
Speaker 1: So I walk around this building like I certainly don't

833
00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:10,560
Speaker 1: sense any entitlement or anything like that whatsoever. But how

834
00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:12,839
Speaker 1: hard is it to make sure you guys understand last

835
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:15,120
Speaker 1: year's team was last year's team, right, this year's team,

836
00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:17,399
Speaker 1: you guys could go eight and four, but forget about

837
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:19,479
Speaker 1: starting as an eleven win team.

838
00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:22,000
Speaker 2: The easy thing to do is, well, let me just

839
00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:23,400
Speaker 2: fast forward and get all the way to the end

840
00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:25,360
Speaker 2: of the next season. It doesn't work that way. You

841
00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:28,080
Speaker 2: have to build. And I think now more than ever,

842
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:33,319
Speaker 2: the teams that build that foundation the right way, with fundamentals,

843
00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:35,680
Speaker 2: with techniques, find their identity and get really good at

844
00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:37,160
Speaker 2: it are going to be the ones that are going

845
00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:38,440
Speaker 2: to be best at the end of the season. The

846
00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:41,200
Speaker 2: reason I say that is in the past, when you

847
00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:43,759
Speaker 2: got into the playoff system, you had about a month

848
00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:45,480
Speaker 2: to prepare for that Bowl game, and I always felt

849
00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:47,080
Speaker 2: like you know, if you gave me a month, you know,

850
00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:49,040
Speaker 2: I could really go to work, I could really focus on.

851
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:51,040
Speaker 2: Give me a couple of weeks to really dive into

852
00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:53,600
Speaker 2: this schematically, we can practice the heck out of it,

853
00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:55,200
Speaker 2: you know. I remember going to the Georgia game a

854
00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:57,440
Speaker 2: couple of years ago. We had like fourteen hundred snaps

855
00:43:57,440 --> 00:44:00,399
Speaker 2: going into that game in the bull practice. Yeah, and

856
00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:02,360
Speaker 2: now that's not gonna be the case. It's more like

857
00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:04,000
Speaker 2: the NFL playoffs. We can get the kind of the

858
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:06,160
Speaker 2: wild card week, but that those games are going to

859
00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:08,880
Speaker 2: keep coming fast, and so you have to make sure

860
00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:11,440
Speaker 2: you're building the foundation the right way and building momentum

861
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:14,000
Speaker 2: with your team because at the end, the team that

862
00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:17,040
Speaker 2: has the best fundamentals, the best techniques, you know, knows

863
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:20,600
Speaker 2: who they are, is gonna win and sustain in the playoffs.

864
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:27,080
Speaker 1: So there's that. Beyond all that, though, I think a

865
00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:29,719
Speaker 1: lot of people are looking at Ohio State and the

866
00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:33,160
Speaker 1: transfer portal. Guys they added, and you should be cause

867
00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:37,440
Speaker 1: their studs, but the guys they convinced to come back.

868
00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:39,600
Speaker 1: I think it's the biggest story in the Big Ten

869
00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:44,239
Speaker 1: this year. JT. T. Jack Sawyer traveon Henderson like a

870
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:48,360
Speaker 1: Mecca Agbuka Ward. A lot of those guys could have

871
00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:51,120
Speaker 1: been had their naming or having their name called in

872
00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:53,600
Speaker 1: the NFL draft this past week, and they all came back.

873
00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:56,440
Speaker 1: And it's a recipe to win a championship. It's not

874
00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:59,680
Speaker 1: a prediction, that's a recipe. That's a foundation that you

875
00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:02,080
Speaker 1: need to win a championship. Then you add in the

876
00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:04,920
Speaker 1: transfer portal guys on top of that. But dude, the difference,

877
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:08,080
Speaker 1: at least what I picked up on from what the

878
00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:12,520
Speaker 1: public talking point is about Ohio State versus what they

879
00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:14,960
Speaker 1: talk about in the building there is they're happy to

880
00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:18,000
Speaker 1: have the transfer portal guys, But dude, those guys coming

881
00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:22,400
Speaker 1: back is monumental. They know it. That's why it's all

882
00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:25,759
Speaker 1: in for twenty twenty four. I mean as all in

883
00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:29,400
Speaker 1: as a major program can be. They are for twenty

884
00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:31,799
Speaker 1: twenty four. Now, I said I thought the fan base

885
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:35,440
Speaker 1: was being mischaracterized a little bit second ago. What I

886
00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:41,239
Speaker 1: mean by that is more and more as the season approaches,

887
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:44,600
Speaker 1: you're gonna hear things like, oh Ohio State fans have

888
00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:46,840
Speaker 1: Ryan Day on the hot seat. Oh oh, if he

889
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:49,360
Speaker 1: loses to Michigan again, they're gonna run him out of

890
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:53,719
Speaker 1: town fair enough, say whatever you want to. Here's what

891
00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:58,120
Speaker 1: I'd ask find me the Ohio State fans who are

892
00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:01,840
Speaker 1: saying that, I'm not saying they don't exist. I'm saying

893
00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:03,879
Speaker 1: we may be making a mountain out of a mole

894
00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:06,920
Speaker 1: hill a little bit in terms of letting the fringe

895
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:10,880
Speaker 1: minority opinion carry the day in lieu of the overwhelming

896
00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:13,279
Speaker 1: consensus up there, which is we got one of the

897
00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:16,840
Speaker 1: best coaches in the country. We've come close. We're going

898
00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:18,480
Speaker 1: to tee it up and try it again this year,

899
00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:22,120
Speaker 1: but we're not gonna go full five alarm freak out

900
00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:24,279
Speaker 1: and call for the head of an eleven to one

901
00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:27,200
Speaker 1: coach if that's how our season goes. So I'm asking

902
00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:31,920
Speaker 1: any Ohio State fans who legitimately feel like that, who

903
00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:35,200
Speaker 1: feel that, no matter what else is accomplished, if we

904
00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:38,520
Speaker 1: fall short of a title this year, or fall short

905
00:46:38,560 --> 00:46:41,520
Speaker 1: of beating Michigan, probably still make the playoffs, then whatever happens,

906
00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:44,000
Speaker 1: if that goes down this year, he ought to be

907
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:47,320
Speaker 1: out of a job. Show yourselves to me. I really

908
00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:49,680
Speaker 1: want to see how many people feel that way, because

909
00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:51,160
Speaker 1: I have a feel in the sample size is a

910
00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:55,280
Speaker 1: lot smaller than we're being led to believe Jesse Colin,

911
00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:59,280
Speaker 1: I do want to let you know one thing. Dellinger

912
00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:03,120
Speaker 1: just broke a story that I irresponsibly was reading on

913
00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:07,120
Speaker 1: my phone during that st So we're gonna do this

914
00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:10,719
Speaker 1: Georgia segment and then I am going to ask you

915
00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:13,120
Speaker 1: to basically keep a generic lower third like you have

916
00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:15,000
Speaker 1: on the screen right now, and I'm going to react

917
00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:16,759
Speaker 1: to that at the end of the show, which is

918
00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:20,400
Speaker 1: in like five minutes, because this is a bombshell report

919
00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:23,360
Speaker 1: and I am not about to wait until Sunday to

920
00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:26,960
Speaker 1: talk about this. Our friends at FanDuel can they can

921
00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:30,040
Speaker 1: cap many things. There is no way that they could

922
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:33,280
Speaker 1: put odds on which big story comes next in college football,

923
00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:36,719
Speaker 1: although I'd like to see them try even they may

924
00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:38,279
Speaker 1: not be good enough for that. But what they are

925
00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:40,480
Speaker 1: good enough to do is they are good enough to

926
00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:43,920
Speaker 1: number one be our exclusive odds provider, and we salute them.

927
00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:46,759
Speaker 1: We appreciate that they are also good enough to put

928
00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:50,040
Speaker 1: out odds on pretty much everything you could ever hope

929
00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:52,279
Speaker 1: to bet in the month of May. Sounds like a

930
00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:56,440
Speaker 1: Temptation song, maybe the unreleased fourth verse of My Girl.

931
00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:00,320
Speaker 1: It's All at FanDuel. You got over in a winters,

932
00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:02,319
Speaker 1: you've got odds to make or miss the playoff. You've

933
00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:04,880
Speaker 1: got hypothetic well not hypothetical. You've got Games of the

934
00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:07,720
Speaker 1: year already over there. Heisman odds are soon to be released,

935
00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:09,680
Speaker 1: if not already. So we've got a lot of stuff

936
00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:13,200
Speaker 1: over there now, peruse at your leisure, take your time,

937
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:17,839
Speaker 1: pick your spots. Don't be blowing that allowance money in May, and,

938
00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:20,600
Speaker 1: come to think of it, if it's your allowance money

939
00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:24,239
Speaker 1: you're betting, don't just put into your pocket and wait

940
00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:26,520
Speaker 1: a couple of years. That account probably doesn't need to

941
00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:28,840
Speaker 1: be opened right now. But FanDuel makes a lot of

942
00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:31,440
Speaker 1: stuff possible for us. At a really good meeting with

943
00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:36,000
Speaker 1: them last week, Oh the ideas, so many ideas. If

944
00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:39,480
Speaker 1: we put if we put tires on even twenty five

945
00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:41,359

969
00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:09,640
Speaker 1: it along. I had a Twitter question and then I

970
00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:12,240
Speaker 1: thought the show was going to be over, but Ross

971
00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:15,720
Speaker 1: Dellinger saw fit to make things a little bit difficult

972
00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:19,200
Speaker 1: for us. Look, hey, I love these guys breaking stories,

973
00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:21,920
Speaker 1: just don't do it while we're on air. Terrible business. Anyway,

974
00:50:21,960 --> 00:50:25,319
Speaker 1: I'll get to that in a second. Kal Ripken, not

975
00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:28,200
Speaker 1: to be confused with cousin kl Cale, hit me and said, hey,

976
00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:30,280
Speaker 1: is it time for us to start viewing Kirby Smart

977
00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:32,880
Speaker 1: in Georgia as we did when we looked at Bama

978
00:50:32,960 --> 00:50:35,440
Speaker 1: and Saban and just expect the dogs to be national

979
00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:38,720
Speaker 1: champs every couple of years. Hey, on a related note,

980
00:50:39,239 --> 00:50:42,239
Speaker 1: little golf clap for Kirby Smart. He is no longer

981
00:50:42,320 --> 00:50:44,399
Speaker 1: hurting for money because today he signed a two year

982
00:50:44,440 --> 00:50:48,840
Speaker 1: extension and is now a thirteen million dollars per year earner.

983
00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:52,800
Speaker 1: So now that Kirby Smart is out of the soup

984
00:50:52,880 --> 00:50:56,320
Speaker 1: line and is comfortable in his skin up there financially

985
00:50:56,400 --> 00:51:00,759
Speaker 1: at Georgia, let us answer the question. I wouldn't even

986
00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:03,080
Speaker 1: say every couple of years. I don't look at it

987
00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:05,120
Speaker 1: as are they gonna win the title every year? That's

988
00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:06,440
Speaker 1: not the way I look at Bama, That's not the

989
00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:09,200
Speaker 1: way I look at Georgia. I ask, are you gonna

990
00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:11,680
Speaker 1: be in it? Every year? And not only will Georgia

991
00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:14,080
Speaker 1: be in it every year, Georgia will be the favorite

992
00:51:14,239 --> 00:51:17,520
Speaker 1: or co favorite to win the title every year. To me,

993
00:51:18,080 --> 00:51:22,400
Speaker 1: it's always been about how many opportunities, how many swings

994
00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:25,880
Speaker 1: can you give yourself? Like Ole Miss this year is

995
00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:28,640
Speaker 1: gonna give themselves a swing. They're gonna be in the

996
00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:34,080
Speaker 1: playoff hunt, playoff conversation, Georgia is that every year. So

997
00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:37,560
Speaker 1: if you guarantee yourself that you're gonna be within swinging,

998
00:51:37,600 --> 00:51:41,600
Speaker 1: within arms reach every year, and you recruit like they do,

999
00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:44,520
Speaker 1: and you're as intense as they are, and you're as

1000
00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:48,040
Speaker 1: attention to detail oriented as they are, the ball will

1001
00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:51,120
Speaker 1: bounce your way. You got better players than most everyone does.

1002
00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:54,399
Speaker 1: You've got a better staff than most everyone does. You've

1003
00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:57,520
Speaker 1: got a bigger budget than most everyone does. You've got

1004
00:51:57,560 --> 00:52:00,680
Speaker 1: so many things in your favor that if you keep

1005
00:52:00,719 --> 00:52:04,239
Speaker 1: taking swings, you'll hit. You'll land a couple of them.

1006
00:52:04,239 --> 00:52:05,839
Speaker 1: You may land several of them, but you'll at least

1007
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:07,719
Speaker 1: land a couple of them. So that's how I view them.

1008
00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:10,200
Speaker 1: That's how I viewed Sabin and Bama. Here's what's interesting.

1009
00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:14,600
Speaker 1: When Sabin got to Bama, there was a giant already

1010
00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:17,560
Speaker 1: in the conference. It was Florida and it was urban Meyer.

1011
00:52:18,560 --> 00:52:21,600
Speaker 1: And it took Saban one year to get his program

1012
00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:23,760
Speaker 1: to where they could go toe to toe with Florida,

1013
00:52:23,800 --> 00:52:25,799
Speaker 1: and they lost the first time they faced him, and

1014
00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:27,640
Speaker 1: then they beat him the next year and went to

1015
00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:29,920
Speaker 1: win a national championship, but then urban Meyer was out

1016
00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:32,040
Speaker 1: of the league one year later. So it felt like

1017
00:52:32,120 --> 00:52:35,520
Speaker 1: at the time we were setting up for this decade

1018
00:52:35,600 --> 00:52:38,879
Speaker 1: long battle of Meyer Saban Saban Meyer every year. Well

1019
00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:42,839
Speaker 1: that's not the way it turned out, and we kind

1020
00:52:42,840 --> 00:52:47,440
Speaker 1: of got a longer version of that with Sabin and Kirby,

1021
00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:50,160
Speaker 1: but we still didn't have the runway on it that

1022
00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:52,440
Speaker 1: we really could have had, Like if maybe a Saban's

1023
00:52:52,480 --> 00:52:55,759
Speaker 1: five years younger, or maybe if the structure of the

1024
00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:58,120
Speaker 1: sport doesn't change and he wants to stick around a

1025
00:52:58,120 --> 00:53:00,400
Speaker 1: little bit longer, who knows what the next five years

1026
00:53:00,560 --> 00:53:02,719
Speaker 1: would have held. But we saw him go head to

1027
00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:04,640
Speaker 1: head what was it, I think five times or something

1028
00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:08,040
Speaker 1: like that. The most recent time we saw Bama win

1029
00:53:08,040 --> 00:53:10,239
Speaker 1: the SEC Championship game against him the time before that,

1030
00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:13,799
Speaker 1: Georgia went a national title against Alabama. But now that

1031
00:53:13,880 --> 00:53:18,719
Speaker 1: Saban is gone from Alabama, you just wonder who's the

1032
00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:22,160
Speaker 1: thorn in Georgia's side? Who is? It doesn't always come

1033
00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:24,880
Speaker 1: from where you expect, By the way, like Gus Malzan

1034
00:53:24,960 --> 00:53:28,120
Speaker 1: had more success against Saban than pretty much anyone else did.

1035
00:53:28,360 --> 00:53:30,799
Speaker 1: Hugh Freeze bit him a couple of times, So it's

1036
00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:33,440
Speaker 1: not always the team that's recruiting heads up against you.

1037
00:53:34,200 --> 00:53:37,400
Speaker 1: Who's it going to be? Would it be like Josh Hipel,

1038
00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:39,719
Speaker 1: Could it be Kaitlyn de Boorne Alabama? Could Kaeln de

1039
00:53:39,760 --> 00:53:44,040
Speaker 1: Bourne Alabama? Maintain the trajectory that Saban had Alabama on, Like, yeah,

1040
00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:47,919
Speaker 1: that's possibility. But outside of that, I just wonder if

1041
00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:50,960
Speaker 1: we fast forward five years and Georgia hasn't won another title.

1042
00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:53,640
Speaker 1: The odds are against that. But if they haven't won

1043
00:53:53,680 --> 00:53:56,480
Speaker 1: another title, what would the reason be? I would guess

1044
00:53:56,600 --> 00:53:59,719
Speaker 1: the reason would be more likely to be internal than

1045
00:54:00,400 --> 00:54:03,279
Speaker 1: anything that's happened on the field. That would be my guest.

1046
00:54:03,320 --> 00:54:06,400
Speaker 1: But yeah, absolutely I would look at Georgia and say

1047
00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:08,719
Speaker 1: odds on favorite to win it. Every year they're the

1048
00:54:08,719 --> 00:54:10,600
Speaker 1: odds on favorite to win it this year, I believe.

1049
00:54:11,080 --> 00:54:13,160
Speaker 1: And then you put yourself in position and you take

1050
00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:17,200
Speaker 1: your swing, all right, So I gotta get you this.

1051
00:54:18,040 --> 00:54:19,560
Speaker 1: I don't think we've done this in a while. We

1052
00:54:19,600 --> 00:54:21,600
Speaker 1: have not had news break on the show in a while.

1053
00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:24,880
Speaker 1: But it's happening. This is the nature of doing a

1054
00:54:24,960 --> 00:54:28,920
Speaker 1: live show. Wouldn't have it any other way. Ross Dellinger

1055
00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:34,440
Speaker 1: breaking news from Yahoo Sports details on a college model

1056
00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:39,000
Speaker 1: that may cost power schools three hundred million dollars each

1057
00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:42,359
Speaker 1: over the next ten years. There is a story right

1058
00:54:42,400 --> 00:54:47,160
Speaker 1: now yahoosports dot com scholarship expansion, new roster limits, a

1059

Speaker 1: seventeen to twenty two million dollar revenue sharing cap per year,

1060

Speaker 1: two point nine billion dollars in damages OWDE, a deadline

1061
00:54:58,400 --> 00:55:03,400
Speaker 1: in forty days, implementation no sooner than the fall of

1062
00:55:03,440 --> 00:55:07,239
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five. I told you this was coming, and

1063
00:55:07,239 --> 00:55:09,160
Speaker 1: it wasn't going to take long. So this right here

1064
00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:13,560
Speaker 1: is what we've been waiting on. This is a fundamental,

1065
00:55:14,080 --> 00:55:17,920
Speaker 1: ground altering moment for college football and college athletics. I

1066
00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:20,200
Speaker 1: talked to a high level athletic director a couple of

1067
00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:24,239
Speaker 1: weeks ago and said, this stuff's happening. They've known this

1068
00:55:24,280 --> 00:55:25,680
Speaker 1: is coming for a little while, so it's not taken

1069
00:55:25,680 --> 00:55:28,560
Speaker 1: anyone by surprise. But I said that stuff's happening. What

1070
00:55:28,640 --> 00:55:31,680
Speaker 1: happens with Title nine, what happens with the non revenue sports,

1071
00:55:31,719 --> 00:55:34,680
Speaker 1: the Olympic sports? And he said, I don't know. I

1072
00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:36,440
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know. And this is one of

1073
00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:39,879
Speaker 1: the bigger names in the industry. They don't know. Even

1074
00:55:39,960 --> 00:55:43,000
Speaker 1: as this story is breaking right now, we are looking

1075
00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:46,520
Speaker 1: at fundamentally altering what you have known and what I

1076
00:55:46,520 --> 00:55:49,000
Speaker 1: have known college football to be. Do you understand what

1077
00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:52,160
Speaker 1: I just said, A seventeen to twenty two million dollar

1078
00:55:52,640 --> 00:55:55,839
Speaker 1: revenue share cap what I just described to you as

1079
00:55:55,880 --> 00:55:58,720
Speaker 1: a salary. So we were talking about Georgia a second

1080
00:55:58,760 --> 00:56:01,120
Speaker 1: ago instead of us sit here and talking about nil,

1081
00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:04,920
Speaker 1: which will still exist to a certain degree. Imagine Kirby

1082
00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:07,360
Speaker 1: Smart sitting there with twenty million dollars to spend on

1083
00:56:07,400 --> 00:56:09,839
Speaker 1: a roster per year, and then Hugh Freeze has that,

1084
00:56:10,160 --> 00:56:12,600
Speaker 1: and then Josh Heipel has that, Shane Biemer has that.

1085
00:56:12,640 --> 00:56:16,560
Speaker 1: Why do they have it not because they fundraised, It's

1086
00:56:16,600 --> 00:56:19,920
Speaker 1: because they're in the SEC and that's the money that's

1087
00:56:19,960 --> 00:56:23,360
Speaker 1: being distributed to them to use to pay football players.

1088
00:56:24,880 --> 00:56:28,080
Speaker 1: What college football yeah, Yeah, that's what we're going to

1089
00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:32,800
Speaker 1: call this now. The deadline and the implementation. I didn't

1090
00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:36,120
Speaker 1: say four years. I said the deadline is in forty days,

1091
00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:39,920
Speaker 1: and the implementation is no sooner than the fall of

1092
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:44,160
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five. This is next year. This stuff is coming.

1093
00:56:44,560 --> 00:56:47,680
Speaker 1: It's not down the road, which is one of the

1094
00:56:47,719 --> 00:56:51,080
Speaker 1: things I keep trying to emphasize anytime we've talked about this,

1095
00:56:51,600 --> 00:56:54,960
Speaker 1: It's not on the horizon. It's in your face. It's

1096
00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:57,560
Speaker 1: just you've been driving through fog for a little while,

1097
00:56:57,800 --> 00:56:59,799
Speaker 1: so you didn't know it was right here. But it's

1098
00:56:59,840 --> 00:57:03,040
Speaker 1: he it's arrived. It's it's at your door right now.

1099
00:57:04,040 --> 00:57:06,600
Speaker 1: The other thing to keep in mind when you talk

1100
00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:10,920
Speaker 1: about shifting over to an actual revenue distribution model is

1101
00:57:11,480 --> 00:57:14,600
Speaker 1: this stuff is going to be jarring. But one of

1102
00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:16,600
Speaker 1: the themes that I've tried to weave into the shows

1103
00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:20,760
Speaker 1: anytime we've talked about this and how inevitable it is,

1104
00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:24,640
Speaker 1: is it's it's not gonna be the same in a

1105
00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:27,720
Speaker 1: sense that the sport you know outside of Saturdays is

1106
00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:31,880
Speaker 1: going to look different Saturday's in the fall. It really

1107
00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:34,680
Speaker 1: comes down to number one, how pristine does that remain

1108
00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:37,320
Speaker 1: and that's me selfishly talking. But number two, I want

1109
00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:39,640
Speaker 1: you to think about this. So right now, a lot

1110
00:57:39,680 --> 00:57:41,800
Speaker 1: of you are been out of shape that there's so

1111
00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:45,360
Speaker 1: much player movement. I am too. I don't like it either,

1112
00:57:45,960 --> 00:57:48,240
Speaker 1: And it's not that I don't like that the players

1113
00:57:48,240 --> 00:57:50,200
Speaker 1: are able to do it. I don't like that we

1114
00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:53,760
Speaker 1: don't have a more firm structure in college football. So

1115
00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:56,240
Speaker 1: it's not a blame the player's thing. It's a blame

1116
00:57:56,280 --> 00:57:58,760
Speaker 1: folks who dropped the ball for thirty or forty years thing.

1117
00:57:59,160 --> 00:58:01,920
Speaker 1: So line is you don't like a lot of it.

1118
00:58:01,960 --> 00:58:04,520
Speaker 1: I don't like a lot of it. You've been asking

1119
00:58:04,560 --> 00:58:06,920
Speaker 1: how do we fix it? Well, the way that you

1120
00:58:07,080 --> 00:58:11,400
Speaker 1: fix it is not to pass rules against guys moving around,

1121
00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:14,640
Speaker 1: just like the Bowl opt out thing. I saw some

1122
00:58:14,760 --> 00:58:17,560
Speaker 1: headline the other day where somebody was foolish enough to

1123
00:58:17,560 --> 00:58:21,080
Speaker 1: think you're about to pass a rule that makes guys

1124
00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:24,480
Speaker 1: play in bowl games. Forget about that, Like how many

1125
00:58:24,480 --> 00:58:26,480
Speaker 1: times do you guys need to get beat over the

1126
00:58:26,520 --> 00:58:30,120
Speaker 1: head in court to realize it's a dead end stop.

1127
00:58:30,880 --> 00:58:33,000
Speaker 1: You don't have to do it that way. The way

1128
00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:36,360
Speaker 1: you do this when you're handing out revenue share is

1129
00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:39,160
Speaker 1: you dictate the terms of the revenue share, And so

1130
00:58:39,640 --> 00:58:42,720
Speaker 1: there's a way to incentivize instead of putting a knife

1131
00:58:42,760 --> 00:58:44,520
Speaker 1: to the back of someone's neck and trying to force

1132
00:58:44,600 --> 00:58:46,320
Speaker 1: them to do something you want them to do. Put

1133
00:58:46,320 --> 00:58:47,960
Speaker 1: a carrot on a string and put it in front

1134
00:58:47,960 --> 00:58:52,040
Speaker 1: of their face. Incentivize them with money. That's how you

1135
00:58:52,080 --> 00:58:55,080
Speaker 1: do it. If I'm a freshman at Payton State and

1136
00:58:55,160 --> 00:58:58,400
Speaker 1: I know I've got a certain dollar amount coming my way,

1137
00:58:58,680 --> 00:59:01,640
Speaker 1: but I know it incrementally grows. If I'm a sophomore

1138
00:59:01,640 --> 00:59:03,680
Speaker 1: at Payt State and a junior at Payt State and

1139
00:59:03,680 --> 00:59:06,120
Speaker 1: there's a big payoff. If I'm a senior at pet State.

1140
00:59:06,120 --> 00:59:08,320
Speaker 1: What if I graduate and get my degree at the

1141
00:59:08,440 --> 00:59:12,200
Speaker 1: same school I committed to four years ago. No one

1142
00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:14,320
Speaker 1: said it's illegal for me to transfer in that scenario.

1143
00:59:14,600 --> 00:59:16,920
Speaker 1: No one even tried to stand in my way. But

1144
00:59:17,080 --> 00:59:19,479
Speaker 1: I did have it explained to me on this piece

1145
00:59:19,520 --> 00:59:21,880
Speaker 1: of paper I signed when I was a freshman that

1146
00:59:22,880 --> 00:59:26,440
Speaker 1: if you leave for reasons that are other than what

1147
00:59:26,520 --> 00:59:29,320
Speaker 1: are spelled out in your scholarship, coaches leaving you and whatnot,

1148
00:59:29,520 --> 00:59:32,040
Speaker 1: if you just decide to leave on your own, then

1149
00:59:32,440 --> 00:59:34,960
Speaker 1: you'll still get paid. Actually, you just won't make nearly

1150
00:59:34,960 --> 00:59:37,840
Speaker 1: as much as you would have in this new backloaded

1151
00:59:37,880 --> 00:59:41,280
Speaker 1: incentive structure. That's how I think this should be done.

1152
00:59:41,400 --> 00:59:44,520
Speaker 1: That's how I think it very well maybe done, and

1153
00:59:44,640 --> 00:59:46,680
Speaker 1: we'll see. But a lot of these details coming out

1154
00:59:46,760 --> 00:59:52,000
Speaker 1: right now are fascinating, absolutely fascinating. And don't just gloss

1155
00:59:52,040 --> 00:59:56,840
Speaker 1: over scholarship expansion and new roster limits. See where that goes.

1156
00:59:57,000 --> 00:59:59,440
Speaker 1: Not a lot's been made of that, but that's been

1157
00:59:59,480 --> 01:00:01,520
Speaker 1: something that's something that keeps getting brought up to me.

1158
01:00:01,640 --> 01:00:03,280
Speaker 1: I haven't broched it a lot on this show because

1159
01:00:03,320 --> 01:00:06,160
Speaker 1: I don't know the details, but we're about to find out.

1160
01:00:06,720 --> 01:00:08,280
Speaker 1: We were about to find out a whole hang of

1161
01:00:08,320 --> 01:00:10,320
Speaker 1: a lot you and I about what the next thirty

1162
01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:12,360
Speaker 1: years of this support are gonna look like. Don't know

1163
01:00:12,480 --> 01:00:14,720
Speaker 1: much other than they're gonna look radically different than the

1164
01:00:14,720 --> 01:00:18,439
Speaker 1: previous thirty years. But don't worry. We'll make it conte together.
