1
00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:06,880
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Solid Verbo. I'm that for me. I'm

2
00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:09,680
Speaker 1: a man, I'm forty. I've heard so many players say, well,

3
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:11,640
Speaker 1: I want to be happy. You want to be happy

4
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:14,480
Speaker 1: for Dake Edo steak? Is that woo whoom?

5
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:20,119
Speaker 2: And Dan and Tie Welcome back to the Solid Verba,

6
00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 2: Boys and girls. My name is Ty Hildebrand here in

7
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 2: the bunker, whoa by the one and only Dan Rubins

8
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 2: seen over there in New York City. So how are you?

9
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 1: I'm good. I don't know what that voice was.

10
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 2: It just I felt like possessed by a demon or

11
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:35,680
Speaker 2: a spirit or something. How are you I am?

12
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 1: I'm good. I'm tired, but I have energy. I've eaten

13
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 1: poorly today. I've hung out with the Little Man a

14
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,360
Speaker 1: lot because of an adjusted schedule since both I and

15
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:47,239
Speaker 1: Jody with and I are working from home. Naturally, I

16
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:51,200
Speaker 1: guess now as most people hopefully are. I know it's

17
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 1: a weird time for pretty much everybody. But as I

18
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 1: stand here in the clofice, I am avoiding a plate

19
00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 1: of oranges I handed her earlier in the day. The

20
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 1: oranges are gone, but the plate remains on the floor

21
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 1: of the cloth fists. So we're all adjusting here we

22
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 1: are all hopefully taking measures to be safe and healthy

23
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 1: and thoughtful. And I assume that many people listening are

24
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:21,680
Speaker 1: also And this is a tee up for you, TI Isolated.

25
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:25,560
Speaker 2: Isolated, Well, thank you for that, Dan. Today's show is

26
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:29,199
Speaker 2: titled Isolation Play. What we are doing is we are

27
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:33,760
Speaker 2: going back through the twenty nineteen college football season. We

28
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 2: are examining some black Swan events.

29
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 1: I was going to call the show Taiam Legend, and

30
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 1: you can make that final decision when you're in the

31
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 1: Art nineteen metadata lounge, but Taiam Legend is.

32
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 2: Pretty good black Swan events, man. Yeah, and we're going

33
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 2: to examine did they occur in isolation?

34
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 1: I e.

35
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 2: Probably won't happen again, or did they not occur in

36
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 2: isolation is something we might see moving forward. So we

37
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 2: got a bunch of responses from the overballer hood out

38
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,399
Speaker 2: there on Twitter and Reddit, which are going to go through.

39
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 2: Also made up a few of our own, which I

40
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 2: think are pretty good. I have one that I'm very

41
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 2: excited to talk about with you. I think generally one

42
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:16,799
Speaker 2: that is, Yeah.

43
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 1: I'm generally the one who starts our Google doc and

44
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 1: I will come up with topics and whether if it's

45
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 1: a Q and a I will cut and paste all

46
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: their copy paste all of the questions that we've gotten

47
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:31,639
Speaker 1: from Twitter or Reddit or Instagram or whatever, and then

48
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:34,920
Speaker 1: you jump in and make adjustments and reorder things and

49
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 1: ads tract whatever you come in and you Rod Beckett, Ty,

50
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:42,959
Speaker 1: I do really close it out. I do, yeah, and sorry.

51
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: I was also listening to a CDC recently and Hell's

52
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: Bells came on and I started thinking about nineties closers.

53
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,639
Speaker 1: Really a lot of goatee's there.

54
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 2: As one of guys.

55
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:57,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you really took. You spearheaded the effort for

56
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 1: these isolated incidents of twenty nine And as you mentioned,

57
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,679
Speaker 1: we're going to figure out if this twenty nineteen occurrence,

58
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,120
Speaker 1: whether it was a single game, a single player, a

59
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 1: team season, is an isolated experience or if it's something

60
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,960
Speaker 1: that we should expect more of moving forward. And for that,

61
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 1: I say, thanks, Ty, you're a hell of a guy.

62
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 2: Well, thank you, Daniel. I appreciate that.

63
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:20,959
Speaker 1: That's much.

64
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, as you said at the top, we have

65
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 2: been doing this thing on Instagram. If you are an

66
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 2: Instagram user, if you want to be an Instagram user,

67
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 2: you can follow us at solid verbal. We've been doing

68
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 2: daily dispatches from our respective residences. Everyone again in the

69
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 2: same boat here, trying to establish a new normal Starve,

70
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 2: we presume for college football or just weird content, sure,

71
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 2: and so here we are to try and fill that

72
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 2: void a little bit more. Been doing about ten to

73
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 2: fifteen minutes a day on the IG Live around five

74
00:03:55,840 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 2: pm every day. Again, we're at Soliverbal, Instagram dot com, Solidbal.

00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,840
Speaker 2: many of our responses today are black Swan events are

81
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 2: taiam legend. Responses came via the subreddit at sOliver with

82
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 2: our reddit dot com or good friend Peter does a

83
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:33,920
Speaker 2: marvelous job over there keeping the conversation going long after

84
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 2: the final bell, Dan, did I miss anything? Or shall

85
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:37,800
Speaker 2: we dance? No?

86
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 1: I think this makes me a what a loyal, entrusted

87
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:45,080
Speaker 1: German shepherd? Yes, if it's I, I am legend. Also, I

88
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:49,360
Speaker 1: totally forgot Troy Percival existed Troy Percival. Yes, that's all

89
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 1: I have A'm looking at a list of career leaders

90
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:53,840
Speaker 1: and save and he has more than you think.

91
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:59,359
Speaker 2: Let's start here this one from Josiah on Twitter. Yeah,

92
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:04,599
Speaker 2: in isolation? Did it not occur? In isolation? Alabama missing

93
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 2: the playoffs? Daniel, Let's say you.

94
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:14,280
Speaker 1: No, I don't know how deeply you want to get

95
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,679
Speaker 1: into this unless you see a very clear and present

96
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:22,040
Speaker 1: danger to Alabama's playoff hopes moving forward. They bring in

97
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,919
Speaker 1: the number one quarterback of this class in Bryce Young.

98
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 1: Presumably mac Jones has at least a hold on the

99
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 1: job for the time being at quarterback, but the talent

100
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,599
Speaker 1: level is still extremely high. They managed to keep Sark,

101
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: who called an all time, all time offense in terms

102
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 1: of scoring efficiency for the Tide in twenty nineteen. I

103
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,720
Speaker 1: am not terribly worried about Alabama as a playoff contender,

104
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 1: even if they fell short this year, especially when Tua

105
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:54,480
Speaker 1: went down. Of course, was the signal caller against LSU,

106
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 1: and it was mac Jones who led the offense against

107
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,120
Speaker 1: against Auburn and the Iron Bowl. But no, it was

108
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:06,919
Speaker 1: a completely isolated phenomenon of Alabama being outside of the

109
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 1: playoff conversation towards the end of the year.

110
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 2: Can I get hot takes here for a second?

111
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:12,600
Speaker 1: I would love that.

112
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 2: It's not usually something I do. I'm going to say,

113
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:18,599
Speaker 2: not an isolation. I'm gonna say not an isolation. And

114
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 2: here's why. It's not based on any real, real, you

115
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 2: know factors. But well, it's a hot take, So what

116
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,039
Speaker 2: the hell? I know? This isn't based on anything other

117
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 2: than the fact that at some point the run has

118
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:36,239
Speaker 2: to end. For Nick Saban has to end at some point,

119
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 2: sooner or later, he's going to retire, right presumably he's

120
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 2: a normal human with a yah. I don't know, a

121
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 2: normal retirement planned at some point in time. The SEC,

122
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 2: I think, is getting better, Certainly on the eastern side

123
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:57,479
Speaker 2: of the conference. It's elevating its game. What with Georgia Florida,

124
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 2: I feel like there are a rising number of threats

125
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 2: to that crown.

126
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 1: Are you taking tonight tonight? Are you confident in a

127
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 1: team beating Alabama from the east in Atlanta?

128
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 2: Am I confident?

129
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 1: Jamie Newman in Georgia, Kyle Trask in Florida, I.

130
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 2: Am more confident I think in Florida.

131
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 1: Okay, Oh, that's I mean, it's a more proven quarterback situation.

132
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 1: Ye okay, continue.

133
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 2: I'm also really gonna steer hard this year into the

134
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 2: whole Scotty Cochrane thing, how he was poached away from Alabama.

135
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 2: I don't know why I call him Scottie, but you know,

136
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 2: Scotty Cochrane going over to Georgia. Now, yeah, I don't know.

137
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 2: I just I feel like, let me just.

138
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 1: Put it here, like a utility infielder, Scottie Cochrane exactly.

139
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 2: I think there are more threats to that Alabama pedestal

140
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 2: now than there have been at any point in the

141
00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 2: last five years, and the talent levels absolutely still there.

142
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 2: But I'm going to take the opposite side of the coin,

143
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 2: and I'm going to say it is not happening in isolation,

144
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 2: that it is something we will see more of over

145
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 2: the next couple of years.

146
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I can be pretty easily talked into just

147
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 1: you know, give me some sort of give me some

148
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 1: sort of tropical cocktail, and I could be talked into

149
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 1: Alabama with TUA being the second best team in the

150
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 1: country last year.

151
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 2: Well, let's not you know, let's not let the facts

152
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 2: get away of a good story.

153
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,719
Speaker 1: In twenty nineteen. I know, so, yeah, I guess we

154
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,440
Speaker 1: disagree early on. We disagree early.

155
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 2: Hot here, Scottie too hotty. Okay, yeah, this one comes

156
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 2: to us from a good friend, Dan Over on Twitter.

157
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:44,839
Speaker 1: Okay, oh yeah, clobashar.

158
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:50,840
Speaker 2: He says Minnesota being a top fifteen caliber team in isolation,

159
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 2: not in isolation. So what I would say to this

160
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 2: is that the offense is again loaded. They did lose

161
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 2: Kurt Shiraka to Penn State, but otherwise they bring back

162
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:08,320
Speaker 2: most of their offensive skill talent, which is good. This

163
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 2: will be a test though for PJ. Fleck, because the

164
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 2: defense is going to be in rebuild mode, particularly in

165
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 2: the front seven. The schedule I think is favorable enough

166
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,960
Speaker 2: that they could make another run at being again top

167
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 2: fifteen caliber. But suffice to say, Minnesota rising up to

168
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 2: win what eleven games this past year.

169
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, was sup. Plus the Bawl, Yeah, was a.

170
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 2: Huge story and likely one that we're going to hear

171
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,960
Speaker 2: more about or the prospects about which we'll hear more

172
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 2: when we enter into the twenty twenty season or get

173
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 2: closer to that again, assuming areas one. So where do

174
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 2: you stand on this one?

175
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 1: So I'm not looking at this exercise strictly as a

176
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:58,320
Speaker 1: twenty twenty viewpoint, It's much more big picture to me,

177
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,319
Speaker 1: but you know your mileage may vary. I am buying

178
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 1: Minnesota as a top fifteen ish team and do not

179
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 1: think twenty nineteen was an isolated incident. And I'll tell

180
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 1: you why, ty because that's what we're doing here today.

181
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:13,840
Speaker 2: Please tell me why.

182
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 1: I like how they replaced Kirk Sharaka with Mike Sandford.

183
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 1: Your guy, Nope, did a very nice job as a

184
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 1: coordinator at a couple different places. So he's calling the offense.

185
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:29,760
Speaker 1: Tanner Morgan at worst, what the sixth best quarterback in

186
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 1: the country, fifth, seventh somewhere in there. Return him. They

187
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 1: lose Tyler Johnson, which is a big deal. Defensively, I

188
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:38,559
Speaker 1: really liked the job Joe Rossi. I think it's a

189
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 1: Bronuns so that Joe Rossi has done. He took over

190
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago as an interim and then

191
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,920
Speaker 1: did a nice job with that defense last season. I

192
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:46,840
Speaker 1: think big picture to me is you look at the

193
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,079
Speaker 1: crossover games in the East, and they're generally going to

194
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:53,320
Speaker 1: have no more than two really tough games, depending on

195
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 1: how those powers are. I think they missed Penn State

196
00:10:55,760 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 1: this year in Ohio State, and I don't know if PJ.

197
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 1: Fleck is going to wear thin at a certain point,

198
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 1: that sort of raw raw row the boat type thing.

199
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:10,839
Speaker 1: I don't see it happening in the short term right now.

200
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 1: And when I look at the West, I still see vulnerability,

201
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 1: don't I mean, don't you oh? I was always always

202
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 1: going to be good baseline pretty good to good Illinois, Purdue, Nebraska, Northwestern,

203
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 1: Wisconsin's always going to be good. But what Minnesota is

204
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,079
Speaker 1: building towards and this is what year one of becoming

205
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:39,200
Speaker 1: a successful team. And I know people myself, ourselves included,

206
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 1: pointed to their quarterback opponent luck this year that they've

207
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:47,000
Speaker 1: played a bunch of backup quarterbacks. They obliterated those teams.

208
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 1: It's not like if Adrian Martinez were playing for Nebraska

209
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 1: that week that all of a sudden they're scoring thirty

210
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 1: five more points. We have evidence that that's probably not

211
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 1: the case with the twenty nineteen Huskers, as good as

212
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 1: we want Nebraska to be, and so it's not like

213
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 1: Minnesota with I think they snuck by what Purdue, but

214
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:09,200
Speaker 1: otherwise they were murdering teams. So I think that's an

215
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: incredible first step. I think PJ flex a good recruiter.

216
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 1: I think they're going to reload enough on defense when

217
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 1: they lose guys, and they're gonna lose guys early, they're

218
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 1: gonna lose coaches that that all comes to the territory

219
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 1: like they did with Kirk Sharaka. I'm in. I think

220
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:29,160
Speaker 1: Minnesota is building to something consistent in that nine win range,

221
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 1: and so with the standard deviation of a win or two. Yeah,

222
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 1: I think they're right there. I think they are. They're

223
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:35,760
Speaker 1: solidly in that striving territory.

224
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:36,200
Speaker 2: Wow.

225
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:38,320
Speaker 1: Hm, I'm there.

226
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 2: I was not sold in Minnesota for most of the year.

227
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:44,200
Speaker 1: Taking down Auburn in the bowl game.

228
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 2: Took down Auburn in the bowl game. The Penn State

229
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:51,320
Speaker 2: game obviously is one that I paid pretty close attention to.

230
00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 2: They've got pretty interesting skill talent. You know, I'm really

231
00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 2: all in on rash Bateman. Yeah, so, I I am

232
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 2: inclined to agree with you where I sort of get

233
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 2: hung up though, as that top fifteen qualification. If you

234
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 2: told me as a top twenty five team consistently, I

235
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:18,680
Speaker 2: would say definitely. Not in isolation. I feel very confident

236
00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:23,480
Speaker 2: about that. But top fifteen is a bit of a

237
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 2: bridge too far, So for that reason, For that reason

238
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 2: only I say isolation. But I don't feel particularly confident

239
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:36,640
Speaker 2: one way or the other, so I could be swayed.

240
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:41,040
Speaker 1: So after if we're talking about top fifteen what before

241
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 1: conference championship games, is that probably the most accurate measure

242
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 1: when everybody has the same record. There are one, two, three,

243
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:56,520
Speaker 1: three loss teams in the top sixteen, So if we're

244
00:13:56,559 --> 00:14:01,079
Speaker 1: saying top fifteen ish, we're talking about nine to three

245
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:05,840
Speaker 1: ish team. Yeah, so yeah, I know it's Iowa, Michigan,

246
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 1: and Auburn. I'll finish the regular season pre conference championship

247
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 1: week with three losses and finished right there in that

248
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 1: top fifteen ish territory.

249
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 2: Moving on, Okay, this one comes to us from Brian

250
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 2: on Twitter. Trevor Lawrence's down performances in the National Championship

251
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 2: and against North Carolina, Dan isolation, not isolation.

252
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 1: This one's a little bit more difficult. So if we're

253
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 1: going to be specific about instead of North Carolina, because

254
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 1: Clemson does not play North Carolina every year because they're

255
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:45,240
Speaker 1: in different ACC divisions, A down Trevor Lawrence conference game

256
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:51,280
Speaker 1: and a shaky performance against a Nation's elite team.

257
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 2: Correct.

258
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 1: I think I'm kind of there, which means he is

259
00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 1: simply really really really really really really good instead of

260
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 1: the best of the best.

261
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 2: So you are there in that it did not occur

262
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 2: in isolation.

263
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think there is, and we saw it from

264
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson each year. And another really really really really

265
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 1: really really really good quarterback, if not great, which Trevor

266
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 1: Lawrence I think is right there between the many realies

267
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 1: and great. I think when you look at the ACC

268
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:27,000
Speaker 1: trending in an upwards direction, I like the Boston College higher,

269
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 1: I like what Louisville's doing. I certainly like what North

270
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 1: Carolina's doing. Miami should have a good defense should Clemson

271
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,760
Speaker 1: crossover with them. I don't have the Clemson schedule in

272
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 1: front of me. Maybe you can pull it up as

273
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 1: I as I babble, this was it Lageria. Yeah, yeah,

274
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 1: I think most quarterbacks toss in a clunker, and most

275
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 1: quarterbacks have a really tough time against defenses peaking like

276
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 1: LSUS and Ohio States were in the championship game. I

277
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 1: don't think Trevor Lawrence is bulletproof.

278
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 2: No, I don't think so. This year's schedule has road

279
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 2: games at Florida State and at Notre Dame, which you

280
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 2: know interesting. Florida State will have to wait and see,

281
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 2: but the Notre Dame one first week of November should

282
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 2: be intriguing. Sure, the other games are at home. Mostly

283
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 2: the other games are at home, so it's it's a

284
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,800
Speaker 2: favorable schedule. Again, I think for the most part. For

285
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:27,480
Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence. You brought up an interesting point though, and

286
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 2: how many guys are truly infallible. Joe Burrow this year

287
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 2: may have had the best season of a quarterback of

288
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:38,040
Speaker 2: all time. He was virtually infallible this past year.

289
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:42,400
Speaker 1: And still had stretches against Auburn that weren't great.

290
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 2: Had stretches. By the way, we're going to talk about

291
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,320
Speaker 2: Joe Burrow and LSU as a whole, whether or not

292
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 2: that was an isolation. But you know, like I look

293
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 2: at those games and sure Clemson didn't blow the doors

294
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 2: off UNC. They won the game by one, But Trevor

295
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,160
Speaker 2: Lawrence did not thrown in that game. He didn't throw

296
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 2: an interception in the championship game either. He didn't look himself.

297
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,639
Speaker 2: He was certainly a bit off climbed.

298
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 1: Out of the gate against Louisville, but then was amazing thereafter.

299
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 2: I just think we're so used to seeing Trevor Lawrence

300
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:20,560
Speaker 2: play to extraordinary heights that to see him not get

301
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:22,959
Speaker 2: to that same level on the grandest of college football

302
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:27,080
Speaker 2: stages is a bit underwhelming. Like you probably would have

303
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 2: taken that performance if you were most other teams, even

304
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:33,400
Speaker 2: though it was an electric you still would have taken that.

305
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,120
Speaker 2: He didn't go out there, he didn't lose the game

306
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,959
Speaker 2: for his teams. In the LSU game and the title,

307
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,919
Speaker 2: they were down, he had a throw right. There was

308
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,800
Speaker 2: only so much he could do. The North Carolina one

309
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 2: was just they were stuck in the mud. Maybe looking ahead.

310
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 2: Who knows, But I am willing to kind of grant

311
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 2: him those two performances in isolation and say that I

312
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 2: still think he's the number one overall pick in the

313
00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 2: twenty twenty one NFL Draft. He's still the best quarterback

314
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 2: college football, and I don't read too deeply into it.

315
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:07,200
Speaker 2: Next item, Next topic. We've got a fun one here

316
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 2: for the Pac twelve fans out there. Washington State versus

317
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 2: UCLA the Black Swan event of Black Swan events in

318
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 2: college football. So remember at the time that this game

319
00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:20,480
Speaker 2: took place, UCLA was very down on its luck. It

320
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:22,879
Speaker 2: was not seeming as if things were going to go

321
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:25,919
Speaker 2: in Chip Kelly's direction, and a large part they didn't.

322
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:28,439
Speaker 2: But this game kind of came out of left field

323
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:32,880
Speaker 2: in that UCLA put up sixty seven points won a

324
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:38,920
Speaker 2: wild shootout game sixty seven to sixty three over Wazoo Dan. Yes,

325
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:42,720
Speaker 2: this one comes to us from Max on Twitter. So, look,

326
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:46,919
Speaker 2: anytime you've got a game with the one hundred and

327
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:51,080
Speaker 2: thirty total points, I think that's sort of in isolation,

328
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 2: like that is not something that I see. Oh thank

329
00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:57,280
Speaker 2: you that we see a whole lot of But I

330
00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:00,160
Speaker 2: guess UCLA is scoring sixty seven points. Is that that's

331
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 2: something that occurs in isolation.

332
00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:05,119
Speaker 1: Yeah. Actually, I wasn't even thinking about it like that.

333
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:07,960
Speaker 1: I was thinking about it in terms of could these

334
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 1: defenses be similarly awful in twenty twenty and beyond. My

335
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 1: answer to that is yes, yes, So I would say

336
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:19,400
Speaker 1: that it's not isolated that degree of points though, Yeah,

337
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 1: it does hinge on UCLA's offense, which I think will

338
00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 1: continue to improve. So I'm going to say not isolated

339
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:31,680
Speaker 1: in terms of the wild variance of a season. UCLA

340
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 1: should have it once again, they finished the year keeping

341
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,560
Speaker 1: cal under thirty, allowing fifty two and forty nine on

342
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 1: the road to USC in Utah. They randomly, I mean,

343
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 1: I guess Stanford was down, so they had random okay

344
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:52,200
Speaker 1: performances on defense against not great teams in the PAC twelve.

345
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:54,800
Speaker 1: But you look at what Hawaii was able to do

346
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,240
Speaker 1: on defense last year under Nick Rolovich, well he was

347
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:01,439
Speaker 1: the head coach, but it wasn't much. It's not like

348
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 1: I expect. I don't think anybody really expects in Pullman

349
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,679
Speaker 1: that the Washington State defense is going to take an

350
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:11,840
Speaker 1: enormous leap forward with what should be another very efficient

351
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 1: and probably more balanced offense under Nick Rolovich. And I

352
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,120
Speaker 1: don't think there's much reason to believe in any sort

353
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 1: of grand improvement on defense for UCLA moving forward. So

354
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,159
Speaker 1: I'm going to say there is a very good chance

355
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:29,160
Speaker 1: that if we see an absolutely Bonker's late night Pack

356
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:33,879
Speaker 1: twelve game with one hundred plus total points scored, that

357
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:37,639
Speaker 1: there's a good chance that it involves either or both

358
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:39,280
Speaker 1: of UCILA in Washington State.

359
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:43,359
Speaker 2: Again, I don't have a strong point to counter yours,

360
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 2: so I'm just going to say I agree. I'm going

361
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:49,359
Speaker 2: to move on Okay, let's go over to Reddit. This

362
00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:56,400
Speaker 2: one comes to us about our boy Michael Cunningham from Woolville,

363
00:20:56,640 --> 00:21:02,879
Speaker 2: about Scott Saderfeld. The text of this post here Satterfield,

364
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,120
Speaker 2: as it were, what did I say?

365
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,200
Speaker 1: Felt? I like that though your mind's on the organ

366
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 1: strength and conditioning program continue.

367
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:12,960
Speaker 2: What an incredible turnaround in one season from a program

368
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:19,200
Speaker 2: in the dumps. Satterfield and Cunningham could be really special

369
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 2: together in a totally vulnerable conference minus the big Orange Tiger. So, okay,

370
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:30,159
Speaker 2: we're talking about Louisville. We're talking about their seven and

371
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,920
Speaker 2: five season. We're talking about whether or not it happened

372
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,639
Speaker 2: in isolation, I guess.

373
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:39,440
Speaker 1: So, yeah, let's break down what this means.

374
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:42,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's try to figure this out. Is this something

375
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:46,119
Speaker 2: that you felt was a fluke? I guess is how

376
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 2: I'll phrase it.

377
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:52,040
Speaker 1: So, what I suppose Louisville is hoping for Louisville noll

378
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 1: is to be a more southern Minnesota with Southern Minnesota

379
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:04,200
Speaker 1: in Minnesota in that I don't have Louisville schedule in

380
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 1: front of me. But whoever submitted this says and claims

381
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:09,240
Speaker 1: there are only two definite losses.

382
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,720
Speaker 2: There are only two yeah, that's me. Two definite losses.

383
00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:15,920
Speaker 2: So I looked at the schedule and it I think

384
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:20,800
Speaker 2: is pretty favorable for Louisville. The two losses that I

385
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:23,720
Speaker 2: am just giving them right out of the shoot are

386
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 2: at Clemson's second week of the year. They'll fight them.

387
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:29,679
Speaker 2: But at Clemson second week of the year, I think

388
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:35,560
Speaker 2: it's a loss. And I think at Notre Dame second

389
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:40,359
Speaker 2: to last week of the year. But otherwise, you know,

390
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,920
Speaker 2: like the schedule isn't easy, but it's not the kind

391
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 2: that jumps out at me and says, wow, this is impossible.

392
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,439
Speaker 2: Like you can win on the road at Syracuse and

393
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,159
Speaker 2: at Boston College. You can win at home against Florida

394
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:54,720
Speaker 2: State because Florida State's in transition. Virginia Tech at home

395
00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 2: is a tough game, but it is at home, so

396
00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 2: I think it's doable. At Virginia who knows, Lake Forest,

397
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:06,879
Speaker 2: you can win that game. Can you beat Kentucky at home?

398
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,359
Speaker 2: Had a rough time with the Cats last year, Tyler

399
00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 2: had a rough time last year, But can you beat

400
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:13,120
Speaker 2: Kentucky at home? Yay, you could beat Kentucky at home.

401
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:16,200
Speaker 2: So I like, it's not an impossible schedule, so it's

402
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:20,200
Speaker 2: there for him. Again, I am going.

403
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:25,639
Speaker 1: To say that until proven otherwise, I think Louisville is

404
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,399
Speaker 1: probably going to stay around where they are. And that

405
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,320
Speaker 1: has nothing to do with and I don't know if

406
00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:34,440
Speaker 1: this was intended. It has notnything to do with Michael

407
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 1: Cunningham and Scott Saderfield. I think as a combination the

408
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:41,679
Speaker 1: fireworks between them and what that offense could be was

409
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:43,920
Speaker 1: not an isolated incident in twenty nineteen. I think we

410
00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:46,119
Speaker 1: should see more of that over the next year or

411
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:49,480
Speaker 1: two years, hopefully if we get that much from Michael Cunningham.

412
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,439
Speaker 1: What I'm worried about is that defense was god awful

413
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:56,399
Speaker 1: last year. Now it's your one or year zero as

414
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:59,080
Speaker 1: it were, with how low they fell under Bobby Patrino.

415
00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:04,640
Speaker 1: Scott Saderfield always had a very good eye and had

416
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:07,680
Speaker 1: a very good plan and idea for what he wanted

417
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 1: from his app state defenses, and he had a good

418
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,639
Speaker 1: eye for coordinators. And I think the Louisville defensive staff

419
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 1: Louisville is capable of turning this into an above average

420
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:20,239
Speaker 1: defense and in that case seven and five becomes an

421
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:24,679
Speaker 1: isolated twenty nineteen incident. But Mikhail Cunningham is down. I

422
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 1: believe both of his full time starting tackles. There's a

423
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 1: lot of what I assume to be open position battles

424
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:35,160
Speaker 1: whenever we get to see football again on defense, because

425
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,399
Speaker 1: that's what happens when your defense is probably one of

426
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 1: the worst I don't know, thirty thirty five in the country.

427
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:45,840
Speaker 1: So I'm going to say not. I'm gonna say not isolated.

428
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:49,400
Speaker 1: I think there is a lot of room for growth,

429
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:52,399
Speaker 1: but there's no reason to believe that they are definitely

430
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,480
Speaker 1: a nine to three, ten and two type program, big

431
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:56,320
Speaker 1: picture right now?

432
00:24:57,600 --> 00:24:58,119
Speaker 2: Interesting?

433
00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:03,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, love mcaale, love mckill. Yeah, or he's my boy,

434
00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 1: Oh now he is. Yeah, he's always been, Okay, just

435
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 1: making sure.

436
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:13,040
Speaker 2: I don't think it was an isolated incident. I think

437
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,399
Speaker 2: that seven and five. I think the point of the

438
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,840
Speaker 2: question is not seven and five. I think the point

439
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:23,200
Speaker 2: of the question is that Louisville had a much much

440
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 2: better gear in twenty nineteen than anyone expected. And he's

441
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 2: asking like, was that a fluke or should we expect

442
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:33,920
Speaker 2: more good years? I mean relatives to what you believe

443
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 2: good is for Louisville, relative to what you believe good is. Yeah,

444
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:39,040
Speaker 2: I do not think it was an isolated incident. I've

445
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 2: always believed in Scott Satterfield, Satterfeld, whatever, whatever nomenclich you'd

446
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:47,560
Speaker 2: like to use, I've always believed in him. I think

447
00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:50,480
Speaker 2: they've got something with Michail Cunningham now now that he's

448
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 2: changed his name and feeling more comfortable with himself as

449
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:55,800
Speaker 2: a human. Yeah, I think they got something there. I

450
00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:57,399
Speaker 2: know the defense is a bit of an issue, but

451
00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:00,760
Speaker 2: I think he knows it. Scott Saderfeld, I think he knows.

452
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 2: Just think about Fieldy from corn Ty. I'm just going

453
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 2: to mix these up all year, now, aren't I?

454
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:10,640
Speaker 1: Yeah. Were they finished one hundred and thirteenth in rushing

455
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:15,440
Speaker 1: sp plus and ninetieth in passing sp plus they allowed,

456
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:19,359
Speaker 1: They were one hundred and third and big explosive plays allowed,

457
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:23,119
Speaker 1: and finished overall one hundredth in defensive sp plus. I

458
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:28,120
Speaker 1: anticipate that going into the probably sixties seventies this year

459
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:33,040
Speaker 1: bare minimum. So I'm confident as a program, I think

460
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,160
Speaker 1: will I think they are going in a good direction.

461
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,280
Speaker 2: Okay, so I would expect more winning campaigns.

462
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 1: Next item.

463
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 2: Next item, Kyle Trask quietly being one of the best

464
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:49,440
Speaker 2: quarterbacks in the SEC. The respondent here from Reddit says

465
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:55,199
Speaker 2: I couldn't care less about the arm strength, but Florida's

466
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,800
Speaker 2: offensive staff was great at creating mismatches before the snap.

467
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:02,480
Speaker 2: Trask was great at idfying and exploiting them. I would

468
00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:05,640
Speaker 2: also add dan he threw for twenty five touchdown passes.

469
00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:10,520
Speaker 2: He had the second best yards per game metric in

470
00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:14,560
Speaker 2: terms of SEC quarterbacks. That is behind one Joseph Burrow,

471
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 2: who threw sixty touchdown passes and won the Heisman Trophy

472
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:19,040
Speaker 2: in addition to the National championship.

473
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,960
Speaker 1: Wait, Kyle Trask had more yards per game than Tua?

474
00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:23,600
Speaker 2: Yes he did.

475
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,399
Speaker 1: Is that what I'm saying? Okay, I will go back

476
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:29,760
Speaker 1: and double check that, but okay, I believe that's accurate.

477
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:34,000
Speaker 1: So it is. Yeah, maybe because Tua was not eligible,

478
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:37,119
Speaker 1: That's what it appears to problem Tomatoes model.

479
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:42,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, what are your thoughts here on Kyle Trask? I

480
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:45,919
Speaker 2: will add a little bit more context and say he

481
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:48,359
Speaker 2: is a guy that we definitely dogged because of the

482
00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 2: arm strength.

483
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,560
Speaker 1: I mean, it had nothing to do with his actual production,

484
00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 1: no ability. It was just tom throw Kyle.

485
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,880
Speaker 2: But it became evident as the year war on that

486
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 2: the coaching staff knew how to coach him. Yeah, they

487
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:03,159
Speaker 2: knew how to use him, they knew what he was

488
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:06,720
Speaker 2: good at, and they put him in I think, a

489
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:10,479
Speaker 2: really good position to succeed. Completed something like sixty six

490
00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 2: percent of his passes, which as a first year started

491
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:18,560
Speaker 2: quarterback is pretty damn good. Yeah, and you know, Felipe

492
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,920
Speaker 2: Franks is transferring, which tells you a lot about where

493
00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:24,119
Speaker 2: the state of the quarterback position is headed in twenty

494
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 2: twenty for Florida. So they certainly believe in him. Felipe

495
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:31,200
Speaker 2: Franks obviously believes in him, and the numbers are there

496
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 2: to support him as being a very good quarterback in

497
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 2: twenty nineteen.

498
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 1: So if I'm to try to interpret this correctly, the

499
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:44,400
Speaker 1: isolated part of the Kyle Trask twenty nineteen is that

500
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 1: it was very quiet and Tua did finish with I

501
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 1: think sixty more yards per game, but was just not

502
00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:51,959
Speaker 1: eligible because he only played in I think nine games.

503
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,160
Speaker 1: So even still, it's fine, Kyle Trask had a good year.

504
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 1: He's full on good. I don't think Kyle Trask is

505
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,360
Speaker 1: going to take any but he by surprise in twenty

506
00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 1: twenty and beyond. I do not think Kyle Trask's success

507
00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:11,240
Speaker 1: was isolated to twenty nineteen. So I'm gonna say not isolated,

508
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:16,640
Speaker 1: because especially with the landscape of quarterbacks and proven success

509
00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:20,560
Speaker 1: in the conference, Dan says, referencing Jamie Newman without saying

510
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:25,760
Speaker 1: Jamie Newman's name, I Kyle Trask might is he the

511
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 1: best returning quarterback in the SEC?

512
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:29,440
Speaker 2: I think so?

513
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:33,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean Mac Jones, Jamie Newman will see what

514
00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,080
Speaker 1: happens in that Georgia system. I don't think it's anybody

515
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 1: else in the East. I think Kelen Mond is fine.

516
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:43,760
Speaker 1: Alabama fans always seem to be a little bit scared

517
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 1: of him. But yeah, I'm I don't think there's anything

518
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:53,480
Speaker 1: underrated about Kyle Trask anymore. No, I not isolated.

519
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:55,760
Speaker 2: I tend to agree. I don't think it's in isolation either.

520
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:57,520
Speaker 1: I think it's properly rated.

521
00:29:57,640 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, earlier in the year, I would have said isolation.

522
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:03,400
Speaker 2: This is a fluke, this is a black swan. But no,

523
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 2: I don't think anymore. I think Dann Mollen knows how

524
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:11,200
Speaker 2: to coach the quarterback position. He just does, and he

525
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,120
Speaker 2: will find a way to coach him up, continue putting

526
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:18,840
Speaker 2: him in positions to succeed. Next item, final Reddit item

527
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:21,480
Speaker 2: here before we move to a couple that I came

528
00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:27,440
Speaker 2: up with on my own. Yep, LSU having possibly the

529
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:31,400
Speaker 2: best season ever in all of college football in twenty nineteen.

530
00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 2: That is what That is what our topic is here.

531
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:41,880
Speaker 1: I assume the intention of this is not, well, LSU

532
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:44,840
Speaker 1: just continue to one up itself and have the greatest

533
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 1: season every year over year over year.

534
00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:54,920
Speaker 2: Right, yes, correct? Correct. The respondent adds a little bit

535
00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 2: of his or her own context, saying they won't ever

536
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 2: do it again. Are back, almost all new coaches, still

537
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,720
Speaker 2: the same competition. They're going to go eight and four.

538
00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:07,440
Speaker 2: The fan base is going to enter a deep depression

539
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 2: and honestly, that's about what they should do. Okay, So,

540
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 2: like eight and four in the SEC West is obviously

541
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:20,680
Speaker 2: not LSU standards at this point, given the fact that

542
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:25,160
Speaker 2: they had such an incredible run, I think totally understandable,

543
00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 2: given the fact that there is so much turnover, especially

544
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:32,800
Speaker 2: losing one Joseph Burrow, Joe Dirt, Joe Brady, who guys

545
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:38,640
Speaker 2: are gone. But is LSU back? Let me rephrase the

546
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:43,800
Speaker 2: question as such, are they back? So?

547
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:47,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, So what we're saying was twenty nineteen with LSU

548
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:51,640
Speaker 1: as obviously the elite of the elite. Was that limited

549
00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 1: to twenty nineteen or is this conversation we should be

550
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,720
Speaker 1: having about LSU. Yes, these next thirty years of ed

551
00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 1: ours run coaching the Tigers, right, I'm gonna say it's

552
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,080
Speaker 1: not isolated. I'm not saying they're having, you know, the

553
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,680
Speaker 1: most incredible season after the most incredible season and so forth.

554
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:09,800
Speaker 1: And I'm not going to say that he is going

555
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 1: to keep finding thirty year old wounder kind.

556
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 2: That's that's German time, authentic German.

557
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:19,480
Speaker 1: Thank you, passing game coordinators to pair with Steve Ensminger

558
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:21,920
Speaker 1: to really take the offense to a new level, because

559
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:25,240
Speaker 1: he just hired Scott Linehan to help run the offense.

560
00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 1: So that worries me a little bit. But my argument

561
00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:33,000
Speaker 1: of LSU being back to LSU, or at least the

562
00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:36,800
Speaker 1: hopes and dreams of LSU fan fans, the argument is

563
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 1: you can't win a national championship without knowing what you're doing.

564
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:46,840
Speaker 1: You can't stumble into a national championship. I trust ed

565
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:52,240
Speaker 1: Orjeron to coach LSU two more playoff appearances because of

566
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:56,400
Speaker 1: the infrastructure, the staff, the ability to convince those above

567
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 1: him to pay for X, Y and Z, the ability

568
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,760
Speaker 1: to recruit at a top five to seven level nationally.

569
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 1: Perhaps some of the change in the SEC and the

570
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:11,960
Speaker 1: SEC West specifically LSU is we'll see with quarterback, but

571
00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:14,720
Speaker 1: I think they're going to keep finding skill talent like

572
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:17,360
Speaker 1: they are always able to do, even when the offense struggles.

573
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 1: They return the Bolitni cow forward winning receiver and Jamar

574
00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:24,719
Speaker 1: Chase this year for I assume Miles Brennan, but we'll

575
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:28,040
Speaker 1: see they have two blue chip backups behind him last

576
00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:33,960
Speaker 1: I checked. And there is so much about an ability

577
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 1: to hire, to maintain, to sort of install and maintain

578
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:42,040
Speaker 1: a culture that I think at Orizron has done at LSU.

579
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:45,240
Speaker 1: It would surprise me if we're not talking about LSU

580
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 1: as a playoff contender deep into November most years.

581
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:55,160
Speaker 2: Yeah. The interesting I think transformation on the LSU side

582
00:33:56,000 --> 00:34:00,760
Speaker 2: came from ed or Jeron recognizing that he needed to

583
00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 2: fix the offense and being savvy enough to go out

584
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:06,719
Speaker 2: and find a way to do it. Sure you know,

585
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:10,520
Speaker 2: like we've heard that same line year in and year out.

586
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:12,759
Speaker 2: It's part of the reason we both were very skeptical

587
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:18,439
Speaker 2: about this past season being LSU's year. Clearly edwards Ron

588
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:22,160
Speaker 2: figured something out. Clearly he spotted a deficiency, he knew

589
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:25,880
Speaker 2: enough to go out there and fix it till the void.

590
00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:28,680
Speaker 2: So at least in that sense, I think he grew

591
00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:32,560
Speaker 2: as a coach, and that should make LSU fans very excited.

592
00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:37,840
Speaker 2: What they saw this past year was to some extent

593
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:40,400
Speaker 2: an anomaly. I don't know if you're ever going to

594
00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:42,520
Speaker 2: have another quarterback put in the kind of season that

595
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:45,400
Speaker 2: Joe Burrow did. That might be an isolation. That was

596
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,680
Speaker 2: truly one of the great seasons in college football history.

597
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:51,400
Speaker 2: It's just not a reasonable expectation year in and year out.

598
00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:57,720
Speaker 1: And if you gave anybody in the LSU facility truth sarum,

599
00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:00,880
Speaker 1: there is not one person who said, oh, yeah, that's

600
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:02,520
Speaker 1: something that we expected of Joe Burrow.

601
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:03,040
Speaker 2: No e.

602
00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:06,080
Speaker 1: When he transferred here, we saw that potential. Nobody saw

603
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:08,040
Speaker 1: feeling Hey, nobody saw that. You didn't even see it.

604
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,520
Speaker 2: After the twenty eighteen season, for sure, we saw a

605
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:13,680
Speaker 2: quarterback and Joe Burrow who was very good in big spots,

606
00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 2: but wasn't nearly the caliber quarterback we saw in twenty nineteen.

607
00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 2: He's going to be the first pick in the twenty

608
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:23,279
Speaker 2: twenty draft. So like nobody in their right mind expects

609
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,360
Speaker 2: that that's going to not be an isolation moving forward.

610
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:30,359
Speaker 2: But LSU as a contender is interesting. You know, if

611
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:33,680
Speaker 2: I'm going to be consistent, remember I answered at the

612
00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:38,000
Speaker 2: top that it wasn't in isolation that Alabama missed the playoffs.

613
00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 2: I don't think it's an isolation either that ls is

614
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 2: going to remain a contender because I trust an ed

615
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:47,080
Speaker 2: O just like you do, and I trust in the

616
00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:53,400
Speaker 2: talent coming into Baton Rouge. I think he's sort of

617
00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:56,160
Speaker 2: figured things out. Now. That's the kind of coach who's

618
00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:58,120
Speaker 2: going to be at LSU until they drag him out

619
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:02,400
Speaker 2: of there, until he he's like no longer vertical. He

620
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:04,880
Speaker 2: loves that job, he loves that place. And if you're

621
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:06,680
Speaker 2: an LYSC fan, you gotta be pretty excited about we

622
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:08,120
Speaker 2: saw so yeah, I'm with you.

623
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:11,440
Speaker 1: Something also important to remember when you know it's easy

624
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:15,600
Speaker 1: to talk about LSU's struggles attracting and developing top flight quarterbacks,

625
00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:21,440
Speaker 1: nobody does it until they do. Exactly, Alabama wasn't rolling

626
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:26,440
Speaker 1: killers out there until they did, until they found TUA.

627
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:31,240
Speaker 1: And listen and listen, listen. Greg mccrroy a, Jim Mccaerroon

628
00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:34,920
Speaker 1: Blake Sims, Jake Koker all fine. I think many, if

629
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:37,839
Speaker 1: not all of them Blake Sims didn't won national championships.

630
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:41,960
Speaker 1: You look at Ohio State quarterbacks, they didn't have killers

631
00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:46,200
Speaker 1: until they did. You look at Clemson quarterbacks, they didn't

632
00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:50,759
Speaker 1: have killers until they did. LSU didn't. I mean, I

633
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:54,880
Speaker 1: like Zach Mettenberger, I do, but they didn't have a

634
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:58,760
Speaker 1: true killer until they did. And what's going to happen

635
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,919
Speaker 1: now is hi school freshman, high school sophomore? Is high

636
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:05,560
Speaker 1: school juniors? Watch what the position that Joe Burrow was

637
00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:08,400
Speaker 1: put in in baton rouge and they think to themselves,

638
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:14,200
Speaker 1: huh huh. I could see myself having some fun there.

639
00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 1: I could see that in the same way Trevor Lawrence

640
00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:20,440
Speaker 1: saw Deshaun Watson do it, in the same way Bryce

641
00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:23,880
Speaker 1: Young Sawtua Tongue of Iloa do it. You don't have

642
00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:25,120
Speaker 1: a killer until you do.

643
00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:30,000
Speaker 2: That is a perfect segue into maybe my favorite question

644
00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:34,880
Speaker 2: that I've ever asked on the show. Part of the

645
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:37,920
Speaker 2: reason why I think we've got the top college football

646
00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:40,040
Speaker 2: podcast across all the podcastings.

647
00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:45,480
Speaker 1: We definitely are eligible to be named that, Daniel.

648
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:49,600
Speaker 2: As you know, LSU want its national championship playing in

649
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:53,359
Speaker 2: New Orleans. It was effectively a home field advantage for

650
00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:55,239
Speaker 2: the Bayou Bangals, right.

651
00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:58,040
Speaker 1: One of my favorite places in the world. Not effectively, it.

652
00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:04,040
Speaker 2: Was very rarely does that happen where you've got sort

653
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:06,400
Speaker 2: of a home field advantage for a team playing in

654
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:07,319
Speaker 2: a championship game?

655
00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:08,879
Speaker 1: Right? True?

656
00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:14,799
Speaker 2: Is this something that occurred in isolation or something that

657
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 2: looking out at the next four years of college Football

658
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:24,200
Speaker 2: Playoff championship games you could see happening again? So LSU

659
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 2: played again virtual home game in New Orleans. The next

660
00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:32,640
Speaker 2: four College Football Playoff National Championship games are in South

661
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:38,560
Speaker 2: Florida in twenty twenty one, in Indianapolis in twenty twenty two.

662
00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:43,719
Speaker 2: We can talk about that, in LA in twenty twenty three,

663
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:49,400
Speaker 2: and Houston, Texas in twenty twenty four. Okay, so I

664
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:53,560
Speaker 2: guess the larger question is will there be a participant

665
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:57,719
Speaker 2: from one of those states playing in effect a home

666
00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 2: game in the College Football Playoff National champion chip Or

667
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:05,040
Speaker 2: was what we saw out of LSU this year truly

668
00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:06,200
Speaker 2: in isolation?

669
00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:12,040
Speaker 1: Well? First of all, the last item tweeted by a

670
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:16,839
Speaker 1: confirmed person on Twitter was January thirteenth. I looked up

671
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:21,000
Speaker 1: quote virtual home game end quote, and it is about LSA,

672
00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:23,400
Speaker 1: So I'm glad you used that phrasing.

673
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:23,759
Speaker 2: Thank you.

674
00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:27,799
Speaker 1: So twenty twenty one South Florida, so the virtual home

675
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:31,000
Speaker 1: games involved there would be I guess the three big

676
00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:33,280
Speaker 1: Florida schools, Miami, Florida, Florida State.

677
00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:36,480
Speaker 2: Yes, and Miami and Florida State are not making the

678
00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:38,600
Speaker 2: Tuttle Game. So this one's all on the Gators.

679
00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:42,200
Speaker 1: It's all on the Gators, and by South Florida. I

680
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:44,080
Speaker 1: assume the game is in Miami. It's not in my

681
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:49,960
Speaker 1: necessarily that close to Gainesville, right, but I guess relatively speaking,

682
00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:53,120
Speaker 1: I'm going to say, so this is twenty twenty one

683
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:58,440
Speaker 1: for the twenty twenty season, yeah right, right, Okay, so

684
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:00,479
Speaker 1: this is early January twenty twenty one, not the twenty

685
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:03,640
Speaker 1: twenty one season itself. Correct, I'm going to say no

686
00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:07,640
Speaker 1: for twenty twenty one. Indianapolis twenty twenty two. I'll defer

687
00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:11,480
Speaker 1: to you since I suppose, and I know some Midwestern

688
00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:14,560
Speaker 1: cities are closer than we realize to each other. But

689
00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 1: Indiana Notre Dame, Perdue and Indiana State.

690
00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 2: Be Notre Dame.

691
00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:30,120
Speaker 1: It would be Notre Dame most likely. Yes, twenty twenty

692
00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:34,319
Speaker 1: three Los Angeles UCLA USC. Yeah, I don't think you

693
00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:38,160
Speaker 1: can call Bay Area schools virtual home game, and neither

694
00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,000
Speaker 1: of the Bay Area major schools are going to go.

695
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:44,560
Speaker 1: I don't know. Arizona schools are closer than you realize,

696
00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:49,359
Speaker 1: I suppose, but no, twenty twenty.

697
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:52,000
Speaker 2: Four in Houston is the one that I'm I'm building to.

698
00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:56,600
Speaker 2: Will Texas be back in the twenty twenty three? It's

699
00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:59,160
Speaker 2: Texas A and M. Well, Texas A and M is

700
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:01,520
Speaker 2: truly the home game, that's the home game of all

701
00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:02,080
Speaker 2: home games.

702
00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:05,919
Speaker 1: The distance from Baton Rouge to Houston, tie, I think

703
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:10,360
Speaker 1: you are. So it's two hundred and sixty eight miles, okay,

704
00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:14,200
Speaker 1: four hour drive. The distance from Austin to Houston. I

705
00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:17,000
Speaker 1: imagine it's shorter, but I don't think it's that much shorter.

706
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:20,160
Speaker 1: One hundred and sixty two miles about one hundred miles closer,

707
00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:24,759
Speaker 1: So certainly closer Baton Rouge, I think than Dallas, right

708
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:30,839
Speaker 1: for TCU SMU Okay, so Dallas to Houston is two

709
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 1: thirty nine so it's right around the same as Baton Rouge.

710
00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:36,239
Speaker 1: So I'm going to say because of the number of

711
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:40,600
Speaker 1: Louisiana and New Orleans transplants that currently live in Houston.

712
00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:45,279
Speaker 1: I would say, I am saying that an LSU national

713
00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:49,800
Speaker 1: championship and appearance in Houston is a virtual home game. Okay,

714
00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:55,200
Speaker 1: so between LSU A and M and Texas, three teams

715
00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:58,600
Speaker 1: that recruit at a high level. Yeah, I'm going to

716
00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:03,120
Speaker 1: say that's not likely, but it's in the realm of possibility.

717
00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:05,560
Speaker 2: Sure, I think it happened. In isolation, This is so

718
00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:08,440
Speaker 2: hard to do, so hard to do. How many Super

719
00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:12,799
Speaker 2: Bowls have we looked at and said, wow, we could

720
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:14,560
Speaker 2: see it happening where it's a home game, and it

721
00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:15,840
Speaker 2: never is.

722
00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:17,279
Speaker 1: This is Isn't it going to happen for Tampa tom

723
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:18,200
Speaker 1: this year in the NFL?

724
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:21,719
Speaker 2: No, they have no defense. No defense. Yeah, okay, so

725
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:24,600
Speaker 2: it's like so hard of a thing to have happened.

726
00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:29,040
Speaker 2: I just I on paper now, a couple years in

727
00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:33,000
Speaker 2: the future. Sure it's a possibility, but this almost never happens.

728
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:37,359
Speaker 2: I say, in isolation, I would love to go out

729
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:40,040
Speaker 2: to LA in twenty twenty three and Houston in twenty

730
00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:43,160
Speaker 2: twenty four, and I have no interest in probably going

731
00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:46,120
Speaker 2: to the games, but eating and doing shows from there.

732
00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:48,880
Speaker 2: Maybe a live show or two. Yeah, Okay, so I'm

733
00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:51,879
Speaker 2: still enthusiastic about the possibility. I have two more here, Dan,

734
00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:56,320
Speaker 2: all right, let's do them simply Baylor's eleven win season.

735
00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:02,000
Speaker 1: I think Baylor is going to remain a pretty successful program.

736
00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:08,000
Speaker 1: I think twenty nineteen was a very specific culmination of

737
00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:12,839
Speaker 1: the Matt Rule era that coincided with a lot of

738
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:17,520
Speaker 1: change in the Big Twelve and the Bears coming into

739
00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:20,520
Speaker 1: their own. I'm going to say isolated doesn't mean I

740
00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:22,520
Speaker 1: don't think they could be an eight to nine win

741
00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:26,879
Speaker 1: program under Dave Randa. I just I think Matt Rule

742
00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:29,279
Speaker 1: is special. I was bummed when Oregon didn't get him.

743
00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:30,799
Speaker 1: I know at the last second he decided to go

744
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:33,960
Speaker 1: with Baylor over the Ducks. And so I'm going to

745
00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:37,400
Speaker 1: say isolated twenty nineteen with as much as they're replacing

746
00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:41,240
Speaker 1: moving forward, with as much as or just the idea

747
00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:46,000
Speaker 1: that I don't see an obvious stud quarterback at Baylor

748
00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:50,239
Speaker 1: for Larry Fedora right now open to change, I'm going

749
00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:51,680
Speaker 1: to say that was isolated.

750
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:55,640
Speaker 2: I think it's isolated in that it was an eleven

751
00:43:55,680 --> 00:44:02,240
Speaker 2: win season, but as a comfortable Bowl team moving forward,

752
00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:04,840
Speaker 2: that is not an isolation. I think Baylor will be

753
00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:06,640
Speaker 2: just fine. I like Dave Randa's hires.

754
00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:10,279
Speaker 1: I like super striving if we're gonna use our yeah,

755
00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:11,000
Speaker 1: super distriving.

756
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:14,279
Speaker 2: Sure. I like the infrastructure that he's put in place.

757
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:16,120
Speaker 2: I think Matt Rule did a good job building that

758
00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:18,239
Speaker 2: program back up, I.

759
00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:18,719
Speaker 1: Mean, we'll see.

760
00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:21,360
Speaker 2: We don't know, yeah, and I we will see. I

761
00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:25,120
Speaker 2: do think if Dave Randa can continue building a top

762
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:27,839
Speaker 2: flight defense, especially in the Big Twelve, that could serve

763
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:32,000
Speaker 2: as a competitive advantage. It's still like there are programs

764
00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:34,880
Speaker 2: around the Big Twelve that have gotten better defensively, but

765
00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:36,920
Speaker 2: it still is not the calling card you think of

766
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:39,839
Speaker 2: Big Twelve, you think of high powered offense. If he can,

767
00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:42,759
Speaker 2: in fact build a tough, gritty defense the way Matt

768
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:46,279
Speaker 2: Rule was building at Baylor, that that can serve as

769
00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:47,160
Speaker 2: a real advantage.

770
00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:50,440
Speaker 1: So first of all, you mean the Phil Snow advisory,

771
00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:55,359
Speaker 1: the Phil Snow advisory, of course, yeah, I mean Dave

772
00:44:55,480 --> 00:44:58,080
Speaker 1: rand is gonna have a lot more than just the

773
00:44:58,120 --> 00:44:59,680
Speaker 1: defense to look over, as you.

774
00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:02,640
Speaker 2: Know he will. He will, but he's gone out. He's

775
00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:06,400
Speaker 2: hired a defensive coordinator who is very much like minded,

776
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:10,160
Speaker 2: but actually here on a mentor. Right, So I'm I'm

777
00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:14,200
Speaker 2: bullish on Baylor remaining at a very high bull eligible

778
00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:16,799
Speaker 2: level eight and four, nine and three level. I don't

779
00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:19,000
Speaker 2: know about eleven wins though, eleven wins is tough to replicate.

780
00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:23,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, late November Thanksgiving playoff conversation, I think we're going

781
00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:25,480
Speaker 1: to have to postpone about Baylor.

782
00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:30,919
Speaker 2: Final one here as we talk about Big twelve. Yeah, Dan,

783
00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:34,360
Speaker 2: as you know, we had a very popular Fantasy Things item.

784
00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:39,200
Speaker 2: You had it actually this past year. Guys being labeled

785
00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:41,120
Speaker 2: as having a little bit of Baker Mayfield in.

786
00:45:41,080 --> 00:45:42,440
Speaker 1: Them, guys being dudes.

787
00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:44,759
Speaker 2: Our friend Bill Barnwall, I believe he used it in

788
00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:46,600
Speaker 2: one of his recent columns in the I just saw

789
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:49,800
Speaker 2: Bill he visited the quarantine. Did he do that on purpose?

790
00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:53,400
Speaker 2: What do you mean, Oh, the little bit of Baker

791
00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:57,360
Speaker 2: may probably did right. I didn't plant that. So either

792
00:45:57,600 --> 00:45:59,759
Speaker 2: he listened to a Fantasy Things show and enjoyed it.

793
00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:06,239
Speaker 2: Are just as a pulse for the football conversation. So

794
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:11,920
Speaker 2: I want to know as this particular comparison rose to

795
00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:15,560
Speaker 2: prominence this past year. I want to know if it

796
00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:19,440
Speaker 2: happened in isolation that it became the go to quarterback

797
00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:23,200
Speaker 2: comparison or not in isolation and by that. I mean

798
00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:26,720
Speaker 2: it will be supplanted by quarterbacks who are now compared

799
00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:29,640
Speaker 2: to Patrick Mahomes being so you know, super Bowl winning

800
00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:33,840
Speaker 2: quarterback MVP. Will there be more quarterbacks that have a

801
00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:36,960
Speaker 2: little bit of Pat Mahomes in them, or more quarterbacks

802
00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:38,759
Speaker 2: that have a little bit of Kyler Murray in them,

803
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:42,880
Speaker 2: or maybe even Tim Tebow for a throwback. What do

804
00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:46,200
Speaker 2: you think will be the go to quarterback comparison? Will

805
00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:49,880
Speaker 2: it be Baker Mayfield still or will it slowly shift

806
00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:51,719
Speaker 2: to someone like Patrick Mahomes.

807
00:46:52,280 --> 00:46:54,440
Speaker 1: So I don't think it'll be Baker Mayfield because that

808
00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:57,960
Speaker 1: was coming on the heels of him having a Heisman

809
00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:00,880
Speaker 1: year and then a really promise saying rookie year in

810
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:04,480
Speaker 1: the NFL. Okay, then he didn't play as well this

811
00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:05,000
Speaker 1: past year?

812
00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:05,799
Speaker 2: Right, No?

813
00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:06,239
Speaker 1: No?

814
00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:07,960
Speaker 2: What about what about Joe Burrow?

815
00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:14,239
Speaker 1: I think you could see comparisons to the the sort

816
00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:17,480
Speaker 1: of path Joe Burrow took where like it didn't work

817
00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:21,239
Speaker 1: out at his original backup school, at school where he

818
00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:24,080
Speaker 1: was a backup and then maybe a school hired a

819
00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:26,359
Speaker 1: new coach and they I don't think Joe Burrow has

820
00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:28,760
Speaker 1: that same sort of because Baker Mayfield was a known

821
00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:33,560
Speaker 1: high quality quarterback in college for so long that people

822
00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:36,080
Speaker 1: became aware of him as both a quarterback and as

823
00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:39,000
Speaker 1: a personality. And you know, he's fiery and frisky whatever,

824
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:42,279
Speaker 1: planting the flag that you know his teammates rally around him.

825
00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:45,920
Speaker 1: I don't know if there is a specific all encompassing

826
00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:50,000
Speaker 1: quarterback that is going to get Baker Mayfield esque comparisons,

827
00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:53,920
Speaker 1: like not Kyler Murray, not you know, as Tim Tebow

828
00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:57,640
Speaker 1: did in years past. Patrick Mahomes. Maybe if a guy

829
00:47:57,719 --> 00:47:59,799
Speaker 1: is sort of scrambling to buy time and has an

830
00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:04,080
Speaker 1: hop salute cannon for an arm, but even still, Patrick

831
00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:07,799
Speaker 1: Mahomes is a pretty subdued guy, right right, sort of

832
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:13,960
Speaker 1: happy and uh, it seems pretty chill personality wise, So

833
00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:17,680
Speaker 1: I don't know who that would be. Trevor Lawrence is

834
00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:22,319
Speaker 1: just sort of on an even keel. Tua didn't have

835
00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:26,440
Speaker 1: a huge personality on the field celebrating, but nothing crazy

836
00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:30,759
Speaker 1: like Baker Mayfield. So I don't know who that who

837
00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:34,719
Speaker 1: that that you know that flag is that that has

838
00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:37,160
Speaker 1: been planted that this is the next type of guy,

839
00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:39,400
Speaker 1: This is the next guy to be this type of

840
00:48:39,480 --> 00:48:43,040
Speaker 1: guy on the football field, grabbing his crotch, planting flags,

841
00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:46,319
Speaker 1: doing what playing in an intramural game, just that type

842
00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:49,920
Speaker 1: of over the topness. I don't know who that is.

843
00:48:49,960 --> 00:48:52,480
Speaker 1: Who is it? I don't know who are the returning

844
00:48:52,600 --> 00:48:56,759
Speaker 1: really impressive quarterbacks or that are just leaving quarterbacks. Justin

845
00:48:56,760 --> 00:48:58,240
Speaker 1: Herbert's not that Justin Herbert.

846
00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:00,200
Speaker 2: I mean, you could have a little bit of Sam Howell.

847
00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:02,799
Speaker 2: I don't know if he's quite got it, not yet

848
00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:06,080
Speaker 2: the heights of Baker Mayfield. But Sam Howell has been interesting.

849
00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:08,480
Speaker 2: He was a freshman, he had a great campaign. It's

850
00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:10,600
Speaker 2: got a little bit of Jordan Loved, a little bit

851
00:49:10,640 --> 00:49:14,279
Speaker 2: of Yeah, exactly, Like it's really tough to find that guy,

852
00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:17,120
Speaker 2: which is why I asked the question, has anyone supplanted

853
00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:20,279
Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield. I think we've heard about Patrick Mahomes, and

854
00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:23,000
Speaker 2: we've heard about others in the past. I actually think

855
00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:26,560
Speaker 2: the comparison, if we're gonna stick with that particular formula,

856
00:49:27,560 --> 00:49:30,880
Speaker 2: is Okay, we're gonna hear less about a little bit

857
00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:33,480
Speaker 2: of Baker Mayfield, and we're gonna hear more about a

858
00:49:33,480 --> 00:49:36,520
Speaker 2: little bit of Joe Brady as it relates to rising

859
00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:39,680
Speaker 2: highly thought of assistant coaches. That's what we're gonna hear

860
00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:39,960
Speaker 2: more of.

861
00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:44,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I am. I'm on that same page

862
00:49:44,760 --> 00:49:47,560
Speaker 1: because I'm looking right now at the most efficient quarterbacks

863
00:49:47,840 --> 00:49:51,200
Speaker 1: and they're either good, but we don't have a sense

864
00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:55,080
Speaker 1: for their personality. Nationally. We saw Baker Mayfield in the playoff.

865
00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:57,680
Speaker 1: We saw Baker Mayfield against Ohio State a couple times.

866
00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:03,600
Speaker 1: I don't I don't see that type of insta fame

867
00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:08,879
Speaker 1: and personality recognition from these names. So I don't think

868
00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:10,719
Speaker 1: it's going to be a good off season for a

869
00:50:10,840 --> 00:50:14,800
Speaker 1: little bit kind of thing. Fair enough, So isolated, Baker

870
00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:17,320
Speaker 1: Mayfield is his own energy source.

871
00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:18,160
Speaker 2: I think that's right.

872
00:50:18,239 --> 00:50:18,520
Speaker 1: That's it.

873
00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:21,040
Speaker 2: I think that's what we're saying. Yeah, Baker Mayfield is

874
00:50:21,080 --> 00:50:22,279
Speaker 2: cold fusion. There it is.

875
00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:25,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, Well this has been fun. No, that's

876
00:50:25,560 --> 00:50:28,800
Speaker 1: all I got. That's all I got for now. Okay,

877
00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:31,880
Speaker 1: right into solid Verbo at gmail dot com. Let us

878
00:50:31,920 --> 00:50:36,799
Speaker 1: know your isolation not isolation plays. We'd love to talk

879
00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:37,520
Speaker 1: more about these.

880
00:50:37,560 --> 00:50:40,400
Speaker 2: I think this is a fun topic, and certainly, as

881
00:50:40,440 --> 00:50:43,719
Speaker 2: we're going to remain in isolation forever more, it is

882
00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:45,839
Speaker 2: something we could revisit as part of a volume two.

883
00:50:46,239 --> 00:50:47,160
Speaker 2: If you're open, have you.

884
00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:51,560
Speaker 1: Been working out me? No? Yeah, going for runs or

885
00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:52,359
Speaker 1: some sort of.

886
00:50:52,400 --> 00:50:54,719
Speaker 2: I know it looks and I know the video that

887
00:50:54,760 --> 00:50:57,080
Speaker 2: we've I know it looks at but just it's not

888
00:50:57,160 --> 00:50:57,479
Speaker 2: the case.

889
00:50:58,200 --> 00:51:00,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, not the case I have on and off.

890
00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:02,239
Speaker 1: I'm not nearly as good as I should be.

891
00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:04,920
Speaker 2: I would like to. I need to do more of it,

892
00:51:04,960 --> 00:51:06,760
Speaker 2: but I just you know I haven't been able.

893
00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:10,440
Speaker 1: I'm gonna leave you with this tie please before you

894
00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:14,960
Speaker 1: go on to probably more important things. For the first

895
00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:19,359
Speaker 1: time in my life, I am tasked with the sole

896
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:23,840
Speaker 1: responsibility of a very small human. Normally we have childcare

897
00:51:23,920 --> 00:51:27,360
Speaker 1: for the solid baby, solid toddler, but we don't because

898
00:51:27,400 --> 00:51:28,760
Speaker 1: of the quarantine isolation.

899
00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:32,160
Speaker 2: See now, the solid toddler, I.

900
00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:34,640
Speaker 1: Don't know what I mean. A toddler toddles and sort

901
00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:39,200
Speaker 1: of walks along and walks around, whereas the solid sun

902
00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:40,960
Speaker 1: only does that with furniture.

903
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:43,839
Speaker 2: Right. So he's one, right, he's a little bit over one,

904
00:51:44,040 --> 00:51:47,560
Speaker 2: a little older than one. So okay, all I'm gonna

905
00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:52,239
Speaker 2: say is nothing makes you feel like what you do,

906
00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:57,480
Speaker 2: what I do, what most people do, is less important

907
00:51:57,480 --> 00:52:03,520
Speaker 2: than we thought than having to raise a child solo

908
00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:06,759
Speaker 2: and not being able to go outside or to go

909
00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:09,800
Speaker 2: to classes of the park or anything like that especially

910
00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:11,240
Speaker 2: for any extended period of time.

911
00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:17,480
Speaker 1: I know there have been talks of stimuli. Stimulus is stimuli.

912
00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:22,239
Speaker 1: I My personal belief and this isn't because I'm doing it,

913
00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:25,960
Speaker 1: is that anybody who is a stay at home childcare

914
00:52:26,040 --> 00:52:31,880
Speaker 1: provider should be a no doubt millionaire because it is

915
00:52:31,920 --> 00:52:38,480
Speaker 1: so impressive and tiring and incredible and demanding that whether

916
00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:41,640
Speaker 1: you're a teacher, whether you're a childcare professional, whether you

917
00:52:41,760 --> 00:52:43,759
Speaker 1: just take care of your kids all day and that's

918
00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:47,359
Speaker 1: your job. Holy hell, are you the best of us?

919
00:52:48,160 --> 00:52:51,000
Speaker 1: Holy hell? That's all. That's all And it's been three days.

920
00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:53,680
Speaker 2: So this is your d this is your Jordan flu

921
00:52:53,760 --> 00:52:55,000
Speaker 2: podcast is what this is?

922
00:52:55,120 --> 00:52:59,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, I essentially that, But also you know that there's

923
00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:01,799
Speaker 1: like a meme where it's like watches movie once and

924
00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:05,120
Speaker 1: then is suddenly fully that's how I am now with

925
00:53:06,080 --> 00:53:09,920
Speaker 1: with parenting all day at home, where it's just like, well,

926
00:53:09,920 --> 00:53:11,839
Speaker 1: what do you normally do when you're not taking care

927
00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:14,640
Speaker 1: of your kid? Like digital marketing? Like okay, who cares?

928
00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:18,359
Speaker 1: That doesn't not that doesn't do anything? Childcare tie these

929
00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:19,120
Speaker 1: are our heroes.

930
00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:22,239
