Earlier this morning, I heard from a source 3 00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:10,760 Speaker 1: who said that there is mutual interest with USC and 4 00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:15,080 Speaker 1: a current college coach had that for you. Coming up 5 00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:17,160 Speaker 1: here in a moment, we'll settle on a pull question. 6 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:18,800 Speaker 1: We got to play the day, stat of the Day, 7 00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:22,000 Speaker 1: all of that forthcoming Age seven seven three d P show. 8 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:25,680 Speaker 1: He's Travis Kelsey joins us via zoom. Always great to 9 00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 1: see him and usually WHOA got the short hair? I 10 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 1: like that? I like that? Who gave you your haircut? 11 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 1: Had he cuts baby Philly's finest? How much you pay 12 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:43,599 Speaker 1: for that? Man? Um? You know what I always look out, man, 13 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:48,720 Speaker 1: I'm I appreciate the tight fade. So and he travels 14 00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 1: so I think just north of a hunterd. I mean 15 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,760 Speaker 1: he got good moss. Why'd you cut it off? What 16 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 1: all this? No? Well everything you kind of like, yeah, 17 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 1: I mean just maintaining it. Man, It's just you got 18 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:05,480 Speaker 1: to wake up a whole ten minutes earlier. You know, 19 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 1: have you ever were put like palm maid in your hair? 20 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,320 Speaker 1: Have you ever done something before you played a football game? 21 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 1: Before the game of Oh man, I made that mistake 22 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 1: and done it like before a practice or something like that. 23 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,119 Speaker 1: And I mean you just sweat just right, and now 24 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 1: you can't see right. It's bad. You can thrial bad. No, 25 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 1: so I had to stop doing that. Okay, did you 26 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 1: not know you were playing the Ravens this Sunday night? 27 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 1: You know what? I knew we had him early. I 28 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 1: didn't know it was going to be the second game. 29 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:36,960 Speaker 1: I just didn't put two and two together. You know, 30 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 1: the Ravens were playing right here? Why is Payton asked 31 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 1: me this question, Because we're playing the Raiders. I'm sitting 32 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:44,679 Speaker 1: there like, I think we got the Chargers and now 33 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,039 Speaker 1: we got the Chargers week three. I believe. So I 34 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 1: was a little off, but I always because Reid always 35 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 1: gives us twenty four hours to enjoy the enjoy the win. 36 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 1: So once we got back in the building today, I 37 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: was I was right on queue with who we're playing, 38 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: and I was locked in. Okay, but does it matter 39 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 1: who you're playing? Do you prepare differently if you were 40 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 1: playing the Chargers as opposed to the Ravens one thousand percent? 41 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 1: I mean not necessarily. The routine, the mentality that you 42 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 1: have going into the week that kind of stays the same. 43 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: You have to find that professionalism in making sure that 44 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,080 Speaker 1: you're always ready for each each individual team. But they 45 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 1: have different defenses, right, so it's just you understand what 46 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 1: teams are doing differently and you try and to attack 47 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 1: them knowing their weaknesses or trying to find a weakness 48 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,799 Speaker 1: in what they're doing. Would you watch that like, did 49 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 1: you pick up anything from the Ravens watching that game? 50 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: They play a lot of man coverage and they love 51 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: the blitz. It doesn't matter how many times you hurt them. 52 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 1: When they do blitz, They're going to keep it coming. 53 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,800 Speaker 1: And with a team like that, you got to bring it. 54 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,519 Speaker 1: I know they're going to be in at home Sunday night, 55 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:48,519 Speaker 1: first game. They've had a lot of people. I don't 56 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 1: think they had any fans last year being on the 57 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,919 Speaker 1: East Coast, everything being lockdown, So I know that city 58 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 1: and that fan base are gonna go to nuts. A 59 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: lot of quarterbacks want the opposition to blitz because that 60 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 1: means somebody you're going to be open man coverage. Uh yeah, 61 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 1: I mean typically when you blitz, there's less guys in 62 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,840 Speaker 1: the back end, which means there's more whole more voids. 63 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,800 Speaker 1: M anytime you get a guy like Tyreek Hill manned 64 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: up or you know, Nicole Hartman manned up with with 65 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: less guys in the back end, I mean, you got 66 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 1: to be licking your chops. But I mean they do 67 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: They're very good at what they do. I mean, obviously 68 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,639 Speaker 1: watching last night's game, they created a lot of problems 69 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 1: for the Raiders, and I mean it's it's gonna be 70 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: a challenge for sure. How many times have you go 71 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,799 Speaker 1: into the line of scrimmage and said it's going to 72 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 1: be a touchdown? Too many? Too many times where it 73 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: doesn't it doesn't end up being a touchdown, And I 74 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 1: kicked myself. Um, there was another there was a play. 75 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 1: There were a few plays this past weekend where it's 76 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: do you know you just want to get them back 77 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: so you can run the route differently or you know, 78 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: attack it a different way and h and end up 79 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 1: in the end zone. But it just I mean, you 80 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 1: learned from it. That's why you nonstopped learning. I mean 81 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: in my ninth year and I still got a lot 82 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 1: to learn in my mind. Was there any added incentive 83 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 1: you grew up in Cleveland, playing Cleveland, I guess you could. 84 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 1: You could definitely say that, Um, it's uh it's ironic 85 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: that I'm playing Cleveland this week and then and then 86 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 1: I played Baltimore the next week because when I was 87 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 1: a child, our model moved the team to Baltimore and 88 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 1: took football away from the city. Um so it's uh, 89 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: I don't know, it's um. I got kind of a 90 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: love hate relationship for both of them, knowing knowing that 91 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,279 Speaker 1: a lot of my favorite guys ended up playing for Baltimore, 92 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 1: and um, we're growing up. I was, I was always 93 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,719 Speaker 1: a Browns fan. Did when the Browns left for Baltimore? 94 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,719 Speaker 1: Did you cry? I did? I did? I cried, And 95 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: I remember my dad took us up to the Municipal Stadium. 96 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,040 Speaker 1: It was the last year that they had that stadium 97 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: open downtown, and I mean we uh, there were Brown's 98 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: players in there. It was kind of like a fan day, 99 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 1: fan appreciation day. And we went home with some bleachers 100 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: in the in the trunk of the car. Wait, were 101 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: you supposed to take the bleachers home? Uh? It's Cleveland, baby, 102 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Just act like act like 103 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:59,839 Speaker 1: you know what you're doing. He's Travis Kelsey, the un 104 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 1: City Chiefs tight end, joning us on the program. And 105 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: when you celebrate, like when you get ready to score 106 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: a touchdown? Are you thinking what am I going to 107 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 1: do when I get into the end zone? Like you 108 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,280 Speaker 1: do you ever think those kind of out of body experiences. 109 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 1: I used to think about it a little bit more, 110 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 1: a lot of them through my younger years. It was 111 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 1: probably premeditated a little bit more. Now it's just I 112 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:23,839 Speaker 1: just want to get in there, and uh and I 113 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 1: got such a good chemistry with the team. It's it 114 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 1: usually just turns into me just getting whacked up in 115 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 1: the head because everyone gets excited you get in the 116 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:32,360 Speaker 1: end zone. You go here and all of a sudden, 117 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 1: everybody's smacking you upside the head telling you a good job. 118 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:38,239 Speaker 1: You're just like, hey, all right, there is how about 119 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,840 Speaker 1: one more? All right? I wondered sometimes you could get 120 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 1: hurt on a celebration because everybody wants to congratulate you, 121 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: or you get at the bottom of a pile. Yeah, no, 122 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: the bottom of the pile. I mean, that's it's all. 123 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: It's fun until you really get stuck underneath a couple 124 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 1: three hundred pounds. You got to get out. Make sure 125 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 1: you're off the ground when you're in the end zone. Man, 126 00:05:58,000 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: when did you know you were in trouble in the 127 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. Um, probably midway through the third quarter, you 128 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: start to see where the score is and you start 129 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 1: to see kind of how how the game's unfolding. Um, 130 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 1: it's just yeah, that was probably the biggest point of 131 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:16,840 Speaker 1: the time winding down. We're running out of time to 132 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,600 Speaker 1: really make our make our way back into this game effectively. 133 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: And uh, yeah that was that wasn't the best feeling 134 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: in the world because you haven't had that experience before 135 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 1: in a long time. I'm guessing, uh, in a in 136 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: a really long time. I know we played Pittsburgh and 137 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 1: I think twenty sixteen and that was really the last 138 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: time that we've we've ever really just got a lot 139 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,159 Speaker 1: of points put up on us, and as an offense, 140 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:43,720 Speaker 1: we didn't do anything but do you And you can't 141 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 1: help your line, can you? Because you've got to be 142 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 1: a weapon to get out but you know your offensive 143 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,479 Speaker 1: line needs help against Tampa Bay? Like, how how do 144 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,280 Speaker 1: you kind of balance that of what do you do? 145 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: When can you do it? Give yourself no excuse, no excuses. 146 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 1: We got great guys out there, we had. I love 147 00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 1: that offensive line and every stay everything they gave us. 148 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 1: That day, um, and everything before that day, you know, 149 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 1: they're just it was Tavia Bay came out and they 150 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 1: were ready. Man, they were ready. That's all I can 151 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 1: say about that. On that day, they were the better team. Man. Whunch. 152 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 1: Last time Mahomes yelled at you, um man, I couldn't 153 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: even tell you. Oh, well, that's a good thing. It's 154 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 1: been a while. I think I think he's never yelled 155 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 1: at me specifically. I think he's just yelled at or 156 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: got uplifting like he was in a leadership way the 157 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: entire offense when when things just aren't going our way 158 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: and we can need a little spark um. Indirectly, he's 159 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 1: he's he's gotten gotten on a few people. Um, but 160 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 1: he's that's what makes him one of the best leaders 161 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 1: and one of the best players in the league and 162 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 1: such a such a guy that you want to play with, 163 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: they want to play for, and and and um. His 164 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 1: his ability to to relate to guys and get the 165 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 1: best out of him in situations like that is why 166 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 1: he's pat Mahomes got a funny story from him in 167 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 1: the huddle. Um, nothing I can share right now. Maybe 168 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 1: after my career. Oh really, I'll spill the beans a 169 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: little bit. What's what's his demeanor? Like, like does he joke? 170 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,840 Speaker 1: Does he like Joe Montana famously? And the Super Bowl goes, oh, 171 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: there's John Candy over there, Like, is Mahomes that aware 172 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 1: of the surroundings during a game? Um? I think when 173 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: we're rolling and he's feeling good, Yeah, I do think 174 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 1: he's much more aware of his surroundings. That likes to 175 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 1: kind of play a little bit more into the showmanship 176 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:35,680 Speaker 1: that is Pat Mahomes, showtime Mahomes. But for the most part, 177 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:37,679 Speaker 1: he's a very he's a very locked in competitor. He's 178 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:41,200 Speaker 1: thinking about the next play, the next situation that's at hand, 179 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 1: and the next play call. Uh. You know, I've been 180 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:48,680 Speaker 1: trying to get this Husain Bowl Tyreek Hill, uh, you know, sprinting, 181 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 1: you know whatever, this race with these two, and I 182 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 1: thought he could put up a gold medal and Tyreek 183 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: puts up his Super Bowl ring, whose side would you 184 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: be on? I'm gonna take Tyreek Hill all day. I've 185 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: never seeing anybody in person fast in Tyreeko, So I'm 186 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: gonna stick with that until I see it, see it happens. Okay, 187 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:07,679 Speaker 1: but are you willing to put something on it. It's 188 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 1: one thing to say you're gonna back your teammate. Oh yeah, 189 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 1: no a M. I putting my Super Bowl ring up. Yeah, 190 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: I put on my championship from last week, So you'll 191 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 1: put your AFC title, your your ring from that. Okay. 192 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:24,320 Speaker 1: I don't know if you same boat wants that. We'll see. 193 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 1: We'll see. He's got a few gold medals, so I 194 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 1: mean he might not care about one of them. Maybe 195 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 1: you could be the warm up race, you and you 196 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 1: versus George Kittle in a warm up race. How's that?

They have fun against Baltimore or the Chargers 224 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,559 Speaker 1: or whoever you play next. Yeah, whoever we got, maybe 225 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: we'll get fired up and get ready to this weak man. Hey, 226 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 1: great to talk to you again, and thanks always a pleasure. 227 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: Dan Travis Kelsey chiefs tight End. He knows what he's doing. 228 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: He's good, always fun, having fun too. Had a couple 229 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:23,679 Speaker 1: of touchdown receptions, so well, if you don't know if 230 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 1: you're facing the Ravens or the Chargers. Small details there. Yeah, McLevin, 231 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: we were talking about it. Why are tight ends so 232 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 1: fun right now? They never used to be fun. Now 233 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 1: it's Kittle and Kelsey and Gronk. Well, the older generation 234 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 1: didn't get interviewed because you didn't utilize the tight end 235 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 1: the way we do now. I mean when you think 236 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 1: back through history, Mike Ditka, John Mackey, we sort of 237 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 1: started there that they became personalities. They were there were 238 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 1: athletes at the tight end position, Kellen Winslow, These were 239 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,199 Speaker 1: athletes at the tight end position, Tony Gonzalez. Then we 240 00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:57,559 Speaker 1: had Gronk. Now you have Kelsey. Now you have a 241 00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 1: variety of tight ends who have athletics him, George Kittle. 242 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,680 Speaker 1: They can get down the field, They're getting the ball 243 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: thrown to them. I think that's really the big key. 244 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 1: Prior to Travis Kelsey joining US, I mentioned that source 245 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 1: told me this morning that there is mutual interest USC 246 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: and a current college coach.

I don't know, 285 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 1: I don't know who's on the leadership council. Sounds like 286 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 1: some serious HR branding right there. Let's get the senior leadership. 287 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,600 Speaker 1: If I didn't like a distraction my agent, I wouldn't 288 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 1: be talking to the USC athletic director coach of my game. 289 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 1: That's what I would do. If anyone distraction, I wouldn't 290 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 1: book my next game. Once again, that's my source saying 291 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 1: that that there's mutual interest with James Franklin and USC. Yes, 292 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 1: is USC way better than Penn State as a program? 293 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 1: Is that a big step up? I'm surprised by the 294 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 1: mutual interest. I don't think right now. I mean, James 295 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 1: Franklin has done a pretty good job there Penn State. 296 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 1: It feels like he is in pretty good shape. Uh. 297 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 1: You know, I had the opening win against Wisconsin. So 298 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 1: you know, these coaches a couple of years here and 299 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 1: a couple of years there and a couple of years there. 300 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,600 Speaker 1: There's other coaches that get locked in and they don't 301 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: want to go any place. But James Franklin was at Vanderbilt, 302 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 1: escape Vanderbilt, then got to Penn State and by all accounts, 303 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 1: I think he's done a pretty good job there, and 304 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 1: you know it's the next challenge. You know, that's that's 305 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 1: a lot of these coaches look at us. Uh done 306 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 1: with this next challenge. Maybe that's the case. I don't know, 307 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 1: but there's gonna be a lot of names. You're gonna 308 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,960 Speaker 1: hear a lot of names.

From the football writers, it's really split geographically, 332 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,200 Speaker 1: Like California based Bruce Feldman says USC has a better 333 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 1: job big Ted Love. Albert Brier says Penn State's a 334 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 1: better job. Reer an interesting point. He said, Penn State 335 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 1: does a great job of recruiting, like certain areas that 336 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 1: they they're always going to be strong. Where USC loses 337 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 1: a lot of LA guys, whether there's a lot of 338 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 1: LA guys to lose, I mean, you got to factor 339 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 1: that in as well. You know, Texas, Florida, in southern California. 340 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 1: Those are those are the three hot pits. Growing up, 341 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:59,119 Speaker 1: it used to be Pennsylvania and Ohio. Penn State I 342 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 1: think taps into New Jersey and Pennsylvania, Michigan as Michigan. 343 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:10,720 Speaker 1: Occasionally they'll dip into Ohio. Ohio usually stays Ohio, but 344 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,159 Speaker 1: they're also looking at I mean you're you're trying to 345 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:17,360 Speaker 1: expand your brand there and you're trying to get the Florida, 346 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 1: Texas or California. But more on this coming up. A 347 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 1: member of the twenty twenty one Basketball Hall of Fame class, 348 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 1: former NBA on TNT Anasta of course, Fab five at Michigan, 349 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 1: Chris Webber joining US. Congrats there Chris on the Hall 350 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:36,200 Speaker 1: of Fame. Did you play football in high school? You know, 351 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 1: I did, played tight end, and you know, once we 352 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:42,159 Speaker 1: got in the Reds and I was pretty good. But 353 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:45,440 Speaker 1: I was really good, I thought, but I don't know 354 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 1: what my quarterback was saying because I really couldn't block 355 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:51,399 Speaker 1: that well. So had a lot of fun playing football. 356 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 1: It's my favorite book. What was growing up? Did you think? 357 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:57,200 Speaker 1: Did you get recruited to play in college? You know, 358 00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:00,800 Speaker 1: it's funny, I did a little bit. But a funny story. 359 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:04,880 Speaker 1: I met bowl Shin Becher and I used to bring 360 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 1: into the locker room before the Game's nice to see 361 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:09,159 Speaker 1: the guys getting pumped up. And one day one of 362 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,399 Speaker 1: the guys lifted me in my legs and he was like, 363 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 1: oh yeah, oh yeah, twigs or something. I just remember 364 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:19,120 Speaker 1: being like, nah, I'm good and just seeing those guys 365 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,200 Speaker 1: that were my hype. But if I would have had, 366 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: you know, role models like Gonzalez or any of these 367 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 1: tight ends that played basketball, I definitely would have tried 368 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 1: a little bit more. Besides in the street tackle on 369 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 1: the side, Alan Iverson talks about he could have played 370 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,680 Speaker 1: he was a better football player than a basketball player. 371 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 1: Can you see that he didn't really serious about it. 372 00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:44,159 Speaker 1: I mean, he's almost it's almost like a regret with 373 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 1: him that he didn't get to play football. But I've 374 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 1: seen him and Jason Williams throw a football with other 375 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:53,440 Speaker 1: football players and that type of thing. And I can 376 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 1: only imagine AI with how he moved Michael bick lift 377 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 1: up to Ai soever. You know, pretty cool, but you 378 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,040 Speaker 1: know you were just if I could change the subject 379 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 1: one second, you're just talking about USC. I don't know 380 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 1: about you know, Slobs. I don't know about his game, 381 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 1: but his father was my point guard in high school, 382 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 1: and so I know his father was pretty tough and 383 00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 1: he was a heck of a basketball player. So I 384 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:17,120 Speaker 1: wonder if Slobs has it in the jeans. But me, yeah, 385 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 1: I would love to have been been a football player. Man. 386 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,200 Speaker 1: The best moment of the Hall of Fame weekend was 387 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:29,480 Speaker 1: what my father put my jacket on him. You know 388 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 1: that that was just special. I really enjoyed it because 389 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:34,320 Speaker 1: my family were out growing bunch. I had a bunch 390 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:39,160 Speaker 1: of brothers and sisters, and so everybody was like, move 391 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 1: out the way, this is my weekend, and that's that's 392 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,119 Speaker 1: kind of our families are. And I needed that and 393 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 1: so it was darren joyment and my father putting out 394 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 1: the colon. Why was Isaiah tom was so important to 395 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:55,200 Speaker 1: you growing up? Well, you know, we didn't have social media, 396 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 1: you know, TV stars. He couldn't get to him. He 397 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,359 Speaker 1: was the best player, one of the best players in 398 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:04,440 Speaker 1: the world. He was best friends with Magic. You know, 399 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 1: he was trying to go through the Celtics turned the ball. 400 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 1: You know. It was just a big Pistons fan, you know. 401 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 1: And the fact that you know, I'm in high school 402 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 1: and all this noise around and you're young, you're vulnerable, 403 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 1: you don't have anyone to talk to you, and you 404 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 1: you know, you're dumb kid. You know. The fact that 405 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 1: he called our house, sought us out, gave me advice, 406 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:31,639 Speaker 1: and was there the whole time. It was just awesome. 407 00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 1: And what I mean by there the whole time. You know, 408 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 1: when you're younger, a lot of times you just need 409 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 1: something to hold on too. And I had the fact 410 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 1: that I had this number and I could call it anytime. Well, 411 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 1: I had the fact that, you know, when guys are 412 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 1: getting in trouble or people are getting you know, I 413 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:48,560 Speaker 1: had a friend, you know, passed away in the streets, 414 00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 1: and I said, he went through the same thing, and 415 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 1: so you know, I just wanted to think, like, mentally, 416 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,360 Speaker 1: he just didn't even know. It's more for that sixteen, seventeen, 417 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:58,640 Speaker 1: eighteen year old kid, you know, twenty year old kids. 418 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 1: I just really thank him because at that time it 419 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 1: was like I know somebody that did it. I know 420 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 1: someone that did it. I got to hold onto the bouties, 421 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 1: you know what I mean to really kept me separate 422 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 1: from from some luckleheads and things that could have happened. 423 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 1: So he's just awesome having him, awesome having him in 424 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 1: my hud. Did Isaiah recruit you to Indiana? Uh? No, 425 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:21,359 Speaker 1: Isaiah never recruited me. That Isaiah never recruited me. Did 426 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:25,200 Speaker 1: Magic recruit you to Michigan State? Hold on one second 427 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 1: day my kids are at home school, be quiet down there. 428 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 1: That's working. How many kids are at home? H two 429 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 1: twins and four year olds and uh, you know about 430 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 1: that life. So I got to wake up earlier and 431 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 1: be ready for I waited to this long and happened. 432 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 1: But anyway, No, he didn't. He didn't recruit me to Indiana. 433 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:55,920 Speaker 1: It's funny. The point guard that I mentioned earlier and Max, 434 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,919 Speaker 1: he took me to Indiana with him and I got 435 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:02,640 Speaker 1: to meet Like it's funny. It was an unofficial recruiting trip, 436 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 1: but Bobby Knight had to know because I go to 437 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:07,440 Speaker 1: the practice with my point guard from high school and 438 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:09,920 Speaker 1: Lawrence Funderburke is in there and he's going like this, 439 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 1: don't come here. And Lawrence went to Ohio State Transfer. Yeah, 440 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 1: body Knight like lawns either. So oh that is funny. 441 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 1: So you're seeing Lawrence Funderburk who's on the Indiana team, 442 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 1: and he's saying, do not come here, okay that I'll 443 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 1: be quick. So I go into that locker room and 444 00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 1: then during practice it was crazy because they had like 445 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 1: eight managers and the managers were taking stats in practice. 446 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,399 Speaker 1: I had never seen anything like this and I was 447 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:45,360 Speaker 1: a big, big ten fan, so I wanted to meet 448 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 1: Bobby Knight couldn't believe he could look me in my 449 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,400 Speaker 1: eye and was tall and big and on a red 450 00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 1: sweater and everything. And so I get the chance to 451 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:54,720 Speaker 1: go into locker room, but all of them are holding 452 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 1: up Calvert Cheney. I'll never forget this, And I had 453 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,920 Speaker 1: a hat on, and like the guys are like, you 454 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 1: better take that hat off of Bisnaghal, come here and 455 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 1: snack you in the head. Like they're scaring me, teasing me. 456 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 1: You know, I don't know what's going on, but I 457 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 1: figure out that they're joking. And then I'm like, man, 458 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 1: it's nice. Man. I love the way that arena. The 459 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 1: seats go all the way up to the top. It's 460 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 1: cool here, it's cool. And funding Berger's just doing like this. 461 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:19,520 Speaker 1: He's like, no, A coach comes in and he just 462 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 1: he stops. And the next year he transferred. So you know, 463 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,879 Speaker 1: he said he from even thinking about Indiana. Did the 464 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 1: magic recruit you to Michigan State? Yes, oh boy? And 465 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:36,400 Speaker 1: you had to tell magic no. You know, as much 466 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 1: as I love Isaiah, I love magic and his magic 467 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:43,359 Speaker 1: was from the state. And so when I was twelve 468 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:47,440 Speaker 1: years old, go on this interview and they said, what 469 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 1: the school do you want to go to I never 470 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:51,119 Speaker 1: thought about. I said Michigan State because the Magic.

I actually became close 473 00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 1: during this time and I get to go up there 474 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,440 Speaker 1: and as twitter as a thirteen year old with my 475 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 1: green school corduroys and white shirt, I get to run 476 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 1: a game with Magic Johnson at the Jennison field House. 477 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:12,920 Speaker 1: I'll never forget. I'll never forget it. It was he 478 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 1: and Kevin Millison a bunch of other players, and I 479 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:19,119 Speaker 1: missed the pass and I hated myself and caught one 480 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:21,479 Speaker 1: and made a layup. I had Pete Loafers on. I mean, 481 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 1: it's it's the weirdest story. But yeah, from then he 482 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:27,480 Speaker 1: would talk to me and try to recruit me and 483 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 1: you know all that kind of stuff.

I did watch 490 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 1: a bunch of speeches, and I saw, you know, Michael Jordan's, 491 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:57,200 Speaker 1: I saw a couple of others and uh, you know, 492 00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:00,160 Speaker 1: after I saw like shacks and someone else typing how 493 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 1: it was. But it was so funny, and now I 494 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 1: was just like, just be itself, don't try to entertain. 495 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:06,879 Speaker 1: I'm trying to do anything and lay some hedge just 496 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 1: you know, hopefully, uh, you know, we'll be honest and 497 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 1: get the hell about it there. So where do we 498 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:19,360 Speaker 1: stand with Michigan here? What's going on? You know, I don't, 499 00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 1: you know, I'm good with Michigan. I'm going to the 500 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 1: game in a couple of weeks, so you know, I don't. 501 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:30,160 Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm not you know, in this space 502 00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:33,440 Speaker 1: goal back and forth with anything. I said the word 503 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:37,440 Speaker 1: apologize to me. He did. He said that, and and 504 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 1: maybe it was the way that they came with the 505 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 1: crawl or something. So I expect him to validate what 506 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 1: I'm saying to you right now. So go to a 507 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 1: hotel room and we meet this about five years ago. 508 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,479 Speaker 1: I don't know how many years ago. It's a few 509 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:56,440 Speaker 1: years ago. Um, we go to the games Wisconsin. The 510 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 1: week we go meet with each other and it was 511 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:04,399 Speaker 1: very nice. It's four people in the room, and you know, 512 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 1: we have copious notes of this time, so everything that 513 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 1: I'm saying is one hundred percent. And he just said, 514 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 1: you know, we like to apologize to the eighteen to 515 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 1: the twenty year old Chris Weber. We did not protect him. 516 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 1: We understood what was going on. We've done our research 517 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:25,200 Speaker 1: and it's not what was reported, and we're sorry. And 518 00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 1: I said a bunch of things to that that was 519 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 1: not contentious at anything, because he didn't owe me that 520 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,159 Speaker 1: or it wasn't an official statement or anything, but he 521 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 1: knew and he knows, and that's that's all it was. 522 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:40,879 Speaker 1: That's why I didn't say anything about it then and 523 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:44,160 Speaker 1: just happen to say something about it now. I mean, 524 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:48,640 Speaker 1: then I'm helping, you know, I'm you know, doing all 525 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 1: I can for Juan younger players things like that's all. 526 00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:54,120 Speaker 1: I mean. I am part of mission game that can't 527 00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 1: be taken away. And I love the love that has 528 00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 1: come from the school, and I expect all of us 529 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: to be a game really so and have a great time. 530 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 1: So I think it's a I think it's in a 531 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 1: great place. One person can't make it. You know, not 532 00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 1: being a great place. It's kind of what my frame is, 533 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:13,960 Speaker 1: from my frame of mind is and you know, the 534 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 1: alumnin in school. So I'm I just can't wait to 535 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 1: get back to the game and uh just starting joining. 536 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 1: So I think you're only a great place. Why is 537 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 1: this still an issue thirty years later? Then you know, 538 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:31,680 Speaker 1: it's crazy, Um, I kind of you know, it's funny. 539 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:35,919 Speaker 1: So in Michigan is a big thing, kind of two 540 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:39,000 Speaker 1: people outside of Detroit. So if you're in Detroit, it's 541 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,760 Speaker 1: never mattered. Detroit is then only that sustainment of course 542 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: people everywhere, but I mean Detroit's Detroit and Michigan as 543 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 1: an office of university just you know, um, but outside 544 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 1: of Michigan, it's not even a it's not even a thing. Actually, 545 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 1: it's you know a little bit of you know, people 546 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 1: are like a little bit mad talking to me, like 547 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 1: why are you talking about it? Forget them that, you know, 548 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 1: So I don't know, but I love the school. Then 549 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 1: hopefully with everything they over, I would say, it's hopefully 550 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 1: what the whole fame will allow is there's so many 551 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 1: new things that I've been doing, and wonderful things and 552 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 1: people and all that hopefully it will allow new conversations 553 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 1: or just a new place to come from. I don't 554 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:20,760 Speaker 1: know that. I hope it doesn't continue to be that 555 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 1: way because one quick story, when I went to the 556 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 1: game with John Harbow, he asked me to come back. 557 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 1: It was it was the best film, right, but there 558 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 1: was this thing where the player goes and has lunch 559 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 1: with the team, the media and everything. So I declined 560 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 1: all of this, and it looked like I was a jerk, 561 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 1: But as I explained to John, I don't want these 562 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:45,440 Speaker 1: guys to be around me, and it's polarizing. I don't 563 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:47,720 Speaker 1: want every question to be about this and this twenty 564 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 1: two year old kids doesn't even know what we did, 565 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: you know. And so that's the only thing I hate 566 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:55,440 Speaker 1: about myself is that I can be used as a 567 00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 1: polarizing figure. And hopefully, you know, just through the actions, 568 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 1: and no one talks about the hundreds of scholarships at 569 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 1: Michigan or anything else that we've done. So you know, 570 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,280 Speaker 1: it's a wonderful place. It's good and we're gonna outlive 571 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 1: any negativity. Um So I'm just happy that, you know, 572 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 1: we can go back and cheer and have some footballs. 573 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:19,080 Speaker 1: What if j Wan Howard ask you to be on 574 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 1: his staff. No has he asked you. No, let his 575 00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 1: wand is so close, but no, he knows I'm not. 576 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 1: I'm I'm not an assistant coach. And no disrespect to him. 577 00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 1: But that's why we can do all we can to 578 00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,440 Speaker 1: help each other from around point of view. So I 579 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 1: think I can do more from him as a colleague, 580 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 1: as someone in basketball, someone that knows the young guys. 581 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:48,560 Speaker 1: I could do more from my outside of basketball than 582 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 1: than in his locker room, because anytime he needs me 583 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 1: out being the locker room, that's that's just that's just 584 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:56,080 Speaker 1: to give him you're more of a head coach. Guy. 585 00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 1: I just I just as I just aspirations on my 586 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 1: own and you know, definitely has to do with with 587 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 1: the NBA. What do you want to do when you 588 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 1: grow up? Um, when I grow up, hopefully I had 589 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 1: these two two wins take care of me. Daddy's dad, 590 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:17,600 Speaker 1: the attire. But no, I look forward to continuing to 591 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:19,360 Speaker 1: do all the things you're doing in business. I'm really 592 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 1: excited about it. And um, you know, hopefully I will 593 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:27,560 Speaker 1: afford the opportunity to uh to come back to basketball. Um, 594 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 1: you know, in a in a different position and hopefully 595 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 1: one that you know can impact the team in the 596 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:35,960 Speaker 1: city and still trying to win the championship. Do you 597 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 1: want to be a GM No, I want to be 598 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 1: part of an ownership group. I want to be part 599 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 1: of an ownership group and help build a winning team. 600 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:49,920 Speaker 1: Are you close to being part of an ownership group? Well, 601 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 1: you know, I've taken two shots and we missed both. 602 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 1: One you know, almost did to Kauai. Accept it bounced 603 00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 1: off the seventh bounce. But hopefully you know, we're gonna 604 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 1: keep gonna keep trying. Man, you know I'm gonna keep trying. Definitely. Again. 605 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:06,400 Speaker 1: What do you get from the Hall of Fame? Yeah, jacket? 606 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 1: What else did jacket? You get a ring? Uh?

And you get a nice gift back 609 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 1: and some other things like that. But the coolest thing 610 00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:28,320 Speaker 1: is just being able to walk around and the Hall 611 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 1: of Fame by yourself and see your exhibits, see everything 612 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 1: that kind of build for you and the narratives and 613 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 1: everything's kind of being done. And then just you know, 614 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:40,480 Speaker 1: every year, just hanging out and do Russell Man like this, 615 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 1: Shade didn't cack them as much. But usually you know, 616 00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:46,000 Speaker 1: you've you've been a lot of a million times, I'm sure, 617 00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:52,760 Speaker 1: and you know allowed cackle. You're right, yeah, any it 618 00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:55,200 Speaker 1: goes in as a coach like people don't realize being 619 00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 1: a player coach back in the late sixties, I mean, 620 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 1: I meant really incredible to be able to could you 621 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 1: imagine is there somebody who could be a player coach now? 622 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know how without inciting, you know, 623 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know how because I think the 624 00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:18,440 Speaker 1: players have so much power that if you know, if 625 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 1: you have that much power and the coach is good, 626 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 1: it's still kind of you know, eleven guys can to 627 00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 1: gain the power of that one superstar player. And actually, 628 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 1: you know, I'm not I'm not. I really don't see 629 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 1: how he did it. Um. I think it was the 630 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:33,160 Speaker 1: respect that he commanded at the time. And I talked 631 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 1: to players like Kareem or you know, Spencer Haywood. He 632 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:39,600 Speaker 1: talks about the fact that he wasn't kind of accepted 633 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 1: in basketball that you know, they said that you have 634 00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 1: an legal player on the court, And it wasn't until 635 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 1: you know, Kareem shook his hand and Bill Russell shook 636 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,400 Speaker 1: his hand. But it like this, they had to allow 637 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 1: him to wear the beard. Back then they were like, 638 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:53,720 Speaker 1: not too many players were you can't wear a beard, 639 00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 1: and so they allowed special to wear a beer. That's 640 00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 1: the power that this man carried, the fact that you 641 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 1: can't get facial hair and I let's you speak to her. 642 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 1: So I just think it was the lest power.

USC or Penn State? Sixty four percent 665 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:18,880 Speaker 1: say USC. How's Twitter on this topic? It's split. I 666 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:22,759 Speaker 1: think it might depend on geography. You know, it does 667 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 1: seem like everyone gets into the lifestyle question. Then it 668 00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 1: becomes where would you want to live in Petsylvania your la. 669 00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:33,120 Speaker 1: I don't know if coaches care, the wives of coaches care, 670 00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,400 Speaker 1: where you're going to raise your family? But all I 671 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:39,840 Speaker 1: have is information I'm given, not you know, what is 672 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 1: James Franklin thinking. If he stays or he goes, then 673 00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:45,680 Speaker 1: you can have an opinion on it. But as of 674 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,520 Speaker 1: right now, and this is just information I received, and 675 00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:50,239 Speaker 1: there're gonna be other names that have come up that 676 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:53,880 Speaker 1: this is just mutual interest from what I'm told and 677 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:57,279 Speaker 1: I'm told that Luke Fickle, who's the Cincinnati coach, not 678 00:35:57,480 --> 00:36:01,400 Speaker 1: interested in leaving the Midwest, and that David Shaw wouldn't 679 00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:04,600 Speaker 1: be on USC's radar. So those are just things that 680 00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:07,240 Speaker 1: I've heard. But you know, there could be other people 681 00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:10,480 Speaker 1: who who have been involved and they were going to 682 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:13,960 Speaker 1: give the job to Urban Meyer. I was told that yesterday, 683 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,440 Speaker 1: and then you had the new president came in and 684 00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:21,000 Speaker 1: said no, this is what I'm told trying to clean 685 00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:24,080 Speaker 1: things up. Nope, not going down that road. And therefore 686 00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:27,600 Speaker 1: Clay Helton, who was safe to keep in the job, 687 00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:30,640 Speaker 1: almost like let's get through all of the stuff that's 688 00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:36,480 Speaker 1: going on at USC and then once we kind of emerge, 689 00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:39,560 Speaker 1: come up for air and then maybe you decide that 690 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:41,759 Speaker 1: you're going to bring in a marquee coach. But that's 691 00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:44,360 Speaker 1: what the feeling was. Because you extended Clay Helton. This 692 00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:46,880 Speaker 1: is going to take a couple of months here. You 693 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 1: may not even hear something. Something may not get traction 694 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:55,680 Speaker 1: until December. But another thing, you know, Adam Schefter said 695 00:36:55,760 --> 00:37:00,879 Speaker 1: Eric B. Enemy would be interested in the USC job. Well, 696 00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:04,320 Speaker 1: you might have to wait until mid February for Eric B. 697 00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:08,080 Speaker 1: Enemy because he's the Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator. Can 698 00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:11,000 Speaker 1: you do that with recruiting. There's a lot of things, 699 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 1: but I was told that they're not going to circle 700 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:16,640 Speaker 1: back and go after Urban Meyer. That's what I was 701 00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:21,840 Speaker 1: told yesterday. A lot of information, and there's gonna be 702 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:25,160 Speaker 1: there's gonna be people trying to parlay this into getting 703 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:27,920 Speaker 1: a raise. They'll be coaches thanks to their agents. Then 704 00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:30,400 Speaker 1: they'll put their names out there and all of a 705 00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:34,640 Speaker 1: sudden you'll go, oh, they're staying at sed University. Yes, 706 00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:37,800 Speaker 1: because they probably were staying at sed University. It's like 707 00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:39,880 Speaker 1: you take your name out of the running for a 708 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:42,719 Speaker 1: job when you know you're not going to get the job. 709 00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:45,600 Speaker 1: It's rare when you go, I'm taking my name out 710 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:49,120 Speaker 1: even though I'm the leading candidate. It doesn't happen, or 711 00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:52,080 Speaker 1: at least it doesn't happen very often. I got the 712 00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:54,920 Speaker 1: news yesterday that Norm McDonald had passed away. And the 713 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:57,279 Speaker 1: first time I met Norm was the nineteen ninety eight 714 00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:02,840 Speaker 1: SPS he hosted, and he was fire breathing. He was unbelievable. 715 00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 1: He knew he was going to be one and done. 716 00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 1: In fact, I think his approach to the SPS that 717 00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:09,840 Speaker 1: night as the host was let me try to be 718 00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:12,080 Speaker 1: one and done so they don't ask me again. And 719 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:14,880 Speaker 1: if that was the case, he succeeded because he was 720 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:18,440 Speaker 1: taken on everybody in the audience there. But we had 721 00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:21,400 Speaker 1: him on in twenty fourteen. He passed away yesterday.

He 727 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:40,040 Speaker 1: had David Spade on it. I think as his first guest, 728 00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:43,480 Speaker 1: Jane Fonda was on.

He was all over 924 00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:36,239 Speaker 1: the map, but uh, there's a lot of brilliance there, 925 00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:39,240 Speaker 1: a lot of fun. I played golf in Laws Vegas 926 00:50:39,280 --> 00:50:42,920 Speaker 1: at Shadow Creek and it's a wonderful golf course and 927 00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:47,600 Speaker 1: we're just finishing up and I see two guys walking 928 00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:52,160 Speaker 1: over and I noticed one is really tall and the 929 00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:57,400 Speaker 1: other one's got stringy blonde hair, and I go, that 930 00:50:57,800 --> 00:51:02,920 Speaker 1: looks like Kat o'cayalin and it's Norman McDonald, And I 931 00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:05,719 Speaker 1: just didn't put the two together. You wouldn't think that, like, hey, 932 00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:09,520 Speaker 1: and those guys are hanging out playing golf. Cato wanted 933 00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:13,439 Speaker 1: to do comedy and probably gravitated towards Norm because that'd 934 00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:16,839 Speaker 1: be a good place to start absorbed some of normalisms. 935 00:51:17,200 --> 00:51:21,000 Speaker 1: And we sat and talked outside, had a couple of beers, 936 00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:26,160 Speaker 1: and I just remember Norm would talk about things that 937 00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:29,960 Speaker 1: his non sequitors. You're like, wait, we weren't talking about that, 938 00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:32,759 Speaker 1: but something came into his mind and then that's just 939 00:51:32,880 --> 00:51:36,680 Speaker 1: sort of how you know, that was his act. He 940 00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:39,520 Speaker 1: was sort of disengaged, and then he was really engaged, 941 00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:41,759 Speaker 1: and then he was too engaged, and then he was disengaged, 942 00:51:41,840 --> 00:51:46,480 Speaker 1: but passing away after a nine year battle with cancer. 943 00:51:46,600 --> 00:51:50,040 Speaker 1: And if you get a chance that, I think it 944 00:51:50,120 --> 00:51:52,799 Speaker 1: still holds up. If you go back to nineteen ninety 945 00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:56,400 Speaker 1: eight SPEs when he hosted, and that was something different. 946 00:51:57,800 --> 00:52:00,239 Speaker 1: And you know, we look at Ricky Gervais with the 947 00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:03,200 Speaker 1: Golden Globes where he's you know, very in your face, caustic, 948 00:52:03,320 --> 00:52:06,040 Speaker 1: you know, having fun, poking funds, you know, giving you 949 00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:09,239 Speaker 1: a pretty good nudge here. And Norm did that with 950 00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:12,920 Speaker 1: all of these great you know tigers there, Ken Griffey Junior, 951 00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:16,520 Speaker 1: John Elway, Barry Bonds is there. I mean, it's star 952 00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:19,759 Speaker 1: studded and Norm he didn't hold back, didn't let up,
