Email address dpat Danpatrick dot com, Twitter handle 31 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 2: at DP show. We start off with Lane Kiff and 32 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 2: leaving Old miss for LSU. I don't think anybody's surprised 33 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 2: at this, and he has his reasons why, but he 34 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 2: did want to stay on. And there's varying reports here, 35 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 2: and I want to make sure that we're being fair 36 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 2: to both sides here. But you know, they're getting ready 37 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 2: to prepare for the college fotball playoffs, probably going to 38 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 2: have a home game, and he wanted to stay on, 39 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 2: but he also wants to take some of the coaching 40 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 2: staff and reportedly wants to coach some of the players. 41 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 2: Now the players I understand if they came to Old 42 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 2: Miss for Lane Kiffin and may want to play for 43 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 2: him at LSU. As far as these coaches go, they 44 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,079 Speaker 2: may want to go. Maybe a few of them were 45 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 2: on the private plane yesterday. Old Miss owes Lane Kiffen 46 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 2: gratitude for the wins, but once he walks out the door, 47 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 2: they don't know him anymore than just that he did 48 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 2: a great job there. I don't think anybody is denying that. 49 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:40,360 Speaker 2: But he made this a public mess. And that's the 50 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 2: problem I had with this. You were kind of toying 51 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 2: with the situation. You were toying with Old Miss, you 52 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 2: were toying with these kids, you were toying with your 53 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 2: fan base. You know, you could have waited. You could 54 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 2: have waited till you know, you beat Mississippi State and 55 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,519 Speaker 2: say I'd love to coach this team. But he's already 56 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 2: said this team, these teams that Old Miss can't win 57 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 2: a national title because money wasn't the issue. He said 58 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 2: he spoke to God. Now I don't know if God 59 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 2: is Nick Saban. Maybe he did speak to God, but 60 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 2: I was thinking maybe he spoke to Nick Saban, and 61 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 2: Saban said, yes, it's time to take the next step. 62 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 2: My son. You know, Laine is going to chase the 63 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 2: rest of his life. And once again I go back 64 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:28,080 Speaker 2: to that documentary, the many lives of Blaine Kiffen and 65 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 2: everything that I thought I would like to rethink because 66 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 2: it seemed like he had found happiness. But I don't 67 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 2: know if he knows what happiness is. He keeps moving, 68 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 2: keeps moving, keepsmoving. I don't begrudge anybody who wants to 69 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 2: take another job to make more money, whatever it is, 70 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 2: but I want you to be honest. I want you 71 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 2: to be fair to old miss. They did give you 72 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 2: an opportunity here, and now you want to take coaches 73 00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 2: with you. Hey, but I want to stay in coach. 74 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 2: I do that, and then maybe privately, I'll talk to 75 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 2: some of these players who might want to join me 76 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 2: at LSU. No leave, you don't want to stay. You 77 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 2: can't win a national championship. You've said that you can 78 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 2: at LSU. And look, my college football source said last night, 79 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 2: Lane will win at LSU. I don't think anybody has 80 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 2: ever denied his coaching ability. And the talent in a 81 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 2: three hour radius of Baton Rouge is probably unquestionably the 82 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 2: most talented area, most fertile college football area in America. 83 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 2: He'll win, He'll win, and then where does he go 84 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,799 Speaker 2: from there? Does he wait till the Alabama job is open? 85 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,039 Speaker 2: I mean, we've seen this before, so you can't sit 86 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 2: there and go, you know, he'll retire at LSU. He 87 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,599 Speaker 2: will not retire at LSU. It wasn't money, So what 88 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 2: was it to win a national championship? Okay, we saw 89 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 2: how that worked before this with Brian Kelly. Now he'll 90 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 2: work harder than Brian Kelly did. But you know, I 91 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 2: felt bad for old miss because you're just waiting. And 92 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,479 Speaker 2: I think we all agreed when we left on Wednesday 93 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 2: he was going to take LSU. So none of this 94 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,479 Speaker 2: is a surprise. I think how it played out was 95 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:19,839 Speaker 2: the disappointing part of this. But you go, that's your team. Now, 96 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 2: you're not going to coach this team, not anymore. We'll 97 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,679 Speaker 2: get to your phone calls coming up, Yes, Paulie. 98 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 3: I think one thing that stood out to me the 99 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,839 Speaker 3: past month is Lane Kiffen was pursued like he hadn't 100 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 3: been pursued since like fifteen years ago when he was 101 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 3: a hot property Tennessee, USC and he wanted his cake 102 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 3: and eat it too. 103 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 4: He wanted the LSU job. 104 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 3: More money for him, more money for his program to build, 105 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 3: but he also wanted to coach. 106 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 4: Ole Miss through the playoffs. And it's so irreasonable to 107 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 4: do that. 108 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:53,279 Speaker 3: But I think he was so in bold in the 109 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 3: past month that I want my cake and eat it too. 110 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 3: I want to coach and leave and poach and take 111 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 3: and do it all because I'm at the peak again. 112 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,720 Speaker 2: And I was surprised when he had comments that, hey, 113 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,479 Speaker 2: I wanted to coach him, Like, You're not a victim here, Lane, 114 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,840 Speaker 2: You created all of this. You didn't want to coach 115 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 2: these kids. Now you could have. You could be coaching, 116 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,799 Speaker 2: and you're in the college football players. You're probably gonna 117 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 2: host a game, you're going to go to last year, 118 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 2: going to be another coach at LSU. You could have 119 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:28,480 Speaker 2: been the coach at Old Miss, And maybe that doesn't 120 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 2: matter to you. Like, I don't know how important your 121 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:35,679 Speaker 2: legacy is, because I think your legacy is damaged certainly 122 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:37,919 Speaker 2: because of this. We move on from all of this. 123 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 2: I know that we do this no matter what the 124 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,840 Speaker 2: story is. We'll move on and then we'll reflect back 125 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 2: in four years and go, oh yeah, Lane's leaving where's 126 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 2: he gone. Oh yeah, that's right, he left. I mean, 127 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 2: I've been around long long enough to know we do 128 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 2: move on from all of this. But I do think 129 00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 2: he'll be successful. I don't think anybody questions that. But 130 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 2: in the manner in which he departed, that was sad 131 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 2: and embarrassed for Lane Kiffin. Here is Lane Kiffin. He 132 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 2: had an interview with Marty Smith just off the tarmac. 133 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 2: He should know to stay away from that damn tarmac. 134 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 2: Here is Lane on why he chose chose LSU overall. 135 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 2: Miss my heart was here. 136 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 5: But I just you know, I talked to some mentors, 137 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 5: Coach Carroll, Coach Saban, you know, and especially when Coach 138 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 5: Carroll said, and your dad would tell you to go, man, 139 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 5: take the shot, you know, take the shot if you 140 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 5: accomplished a lot here. You know, I always felt I 141 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 5: always hated how we only gave one year to Tennessee 142 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 5: and left. I really hated that feeling of that, you know, 143 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 5: even though it was exciting year. But you know, I 144 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 5: think that we gave a lot to this program and 145 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 5: to the city, and you know, some of those historic 146 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 5: wins in this stadium they've ever had in best best 147 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 5: regular season in the history of the school. So I 148 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 5: feel proud of that part, but just became time, you know, 149 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 5: well I talk to God and go me. It's time 150 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 5: to tak a new step. It's a new chapter. 151 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 2: Okay. 152 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 6: Uh. 153 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 2: I just wish he would have been honest and just said, look, 154 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 2: I'm going to LSU. I feel like it's a better 155 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:19,559 Speaker 2: opportunity for what my goals are and my family. That's all. 156 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 2: Thank you for your support. You know, I wish you 157 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,119 Speaker 2: the best of luck. I wish I was coaching because 158 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 2: I love these kids and we've had a great season. 159 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 2: But look, that's not fair to you, not fair to LSU. 160 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 2: And then leave. But don't be toying around, you know, 161 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 2: cryptic stuff, you know, and this is a bigger problem 162 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 2: for college football. Could you imagine Let's say Mike McDaniel 163 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 2: got fired with the Dolphins and Mike Tomlin took the 164 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 2: job right now in season. That's what we have here, 165 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 2: a coach going to the playoffs, quitting to go to 166 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 2: another school. The college football's created all of this mess. Remember, 167 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 2: the kids were screwing it up. Now it's the grownups 168 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 2: who screw it up. The kids are just kind of 169 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,719 Speaker 2: waiting for the other shoe to drop here. These are 170 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 2: all the chancellors and presidents and athletic directors. They're the 171 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,079 Speaker 2: ones that screw it up. The coaches, yeah pulling. 172 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 3: Remember a decade ago when we were angry that Christian 173 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,880 Speaker 3: McCaffrey skipped the sun Ball or like, he's not playing 174 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 3: in an exhibition sun Ball, he's not finishing his season. 175 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,679 Speaker 3: We got a coach who's going to the playoffs. But 176 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 3: the team that doesn't go to the playoffs will miss 177 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 3: that often and he leaves. It's surreal that the like 178 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,559 Speaker 3: you said for net Lear Fournette, Yeah, he sat out 179 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 3: a game. 180 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 2: Oh my god, what are you doing to the pageantry 181 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,319 Speaker 2: of a bull game? No, nobody wants to play in 182 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 2: the sun Bowl. Well hey, oh man, you know teams 183 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,960 Speaker 2: are going to hold this against Christian McCaffrey. Oh really yeah, 184 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 2: you know, maybe he quit on his team. Okay, all right, 185 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 2: this is a coach who quit on his team. Like literally, 186 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 2: he quit on his team and go into LSU. There's 187 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 2: a lot of opinions out there, but Lane is not 188 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 2: a victim. Not a victim. He'll play a victim. Man, 189 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,559 Speaker 2: I wanted to coach them, You wanted to coach them. 190 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 2: But did you want to bring some of your assistant 191 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 2: coaches with you to LSU? Did you want to bring 192 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 2: some of your players with you to LSU? Now I 193 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 2: would say, hey, Lane, you can coach, but you can't 194 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 2: take any of our players in any of our coaches. Okay, 195 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 2: you sign a contract, let's say a million dollars for 196 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 2: each player in each coach that leaves that you'll pay 197 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 2: us back. How about that? How about we get lawyers 198 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 2: who draw up real good contracts to protect schools. What 199 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,440 Speaker 2: was the buyout for Lane Kiffen at Old Miss four million? 200 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 7: Yeah? 201 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 2: And if he got fired, what was he going to 202 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 2: get paid? Thirty six million? Something crazy like that? That 203 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 2: scene out of balance here? Four million is nothing, Yes, Marvin. 204 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 8: Yeah, there's gonna be some type of kiff And rule implemented. 205 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 8: I don't know whether it's gonna be you can't take 206 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 8: these amount of players or you can't try to pick 207 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 8: off our coaches in the middle of the season. But 208 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 8: some type of kiff And rule they'll try to. I 209 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 8: don't know if they'll succeed, but they'll try to implement 210 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 8: it in new coaches contracts. 211 00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 9: Yes, Todd, anything less than a championship with LSU. How 212 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 9: there's that effected decision when we look back on him 213 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 9: leaving all mess, does he have to win at least 214 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 9: one title in LSU. 215 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 2: Even if he does, I mean great, I mean you 216 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 2: got a lot of talent. You're gonna have more talent 217 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 2: year in and year out than you did at Ole Miss. 218 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:45,320 Speaker 2: He should win. I mean three other coaches won national 219 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 2: titles there, so you're gonna be another coach who wins 220 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 2: the national title there. Okay, but money wasn't the issue. 221 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 2: And if it's talent, good, we wish you the best. 222 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 2: But the way he left is the problem. It's the 223 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 2: problem right now with him. It's a bigger problem with 224 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:07,680 Speaker 2: college football. What's the poll question? First down, we're Dylan. 225 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 10: All right, we got a couple options, Dan from Paulie. 226 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,959 Speaker 4: If you're the Ole Miss ad, would you have let 227 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 4: Lane coach throughout the playoffs? Yes? 228 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 5: Or no? 229 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, Paul I'm going to say a hard no 230 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 3: on that would even consider it. But when you brought 231 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 3: up the idea of some type of contract where he 232 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 3: couldn't take assistant coaches and couldn't take players under that umbrella, 233 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 3: I could consider it, but. 234 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 4: It would still be such a bad look. No, you 235 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 4: can't do it? Can do it? 236 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 2: Does anybody think that Lane Kiffin should have been able 237 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 2: to coach Ole Miss in the playoffs? No? 238 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, ton I agree that it's a very bad look. 239 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 9: But I could also sell it by saying, you know, 240 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 9: we went this far, we're having this amazing season. We 241 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 9: owe it to the players to see it through. I 242 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,080 Speaker 9: hate seeing that he's still in his own mis gear 243 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 9: and he's already agreed to coach somewhere else arrival in 244 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 9: the SEC. But you know he's leaving. Why don't we 245 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 9: get the most out of him? And well, you know 246 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 9: he's got this relationship with the players. Let's see how 247 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 9: far we can go and then good riddens after that. 248 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 2: But and I said this on Wednesday, I don't want 249 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 2: the College Football Playoff Committee to then punish these players 250 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 2: and this team and hey, you don't have your head coach. 251 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 2: We've seen this with quarterbacks who haven't been able to 252 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 2: play and then all of the saidden their team, you know, 253 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,559 Speaker 2: is lowered as far as the rankings go, or they 254 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 2: don't even make the playoffs. I get that Lane Kiffin 255 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 2: gives you a better chance, but I can't I would 256 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 2: rather go in with my now elevated defensive coordinator and 257 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 2: our team and we're playing, and it's the people who 258 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 2: want to be here. I can't have this. You know, 259 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 2: Michigan basketball did this with Bill Frieder, Steve Fisher, you 260 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 2: know both scham Beckler famously said I want a Michigan 261 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 2: guy coaching Michigan. And you can take a hard stance 262 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:01,320 Speaker 2: on this. I mean, I try to be adaptable. I 263 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 2: mean I try to mature with all the things that 264 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 2: are happening, and back in my day it's easy to 265 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 2: say that. But this is this was just unfortunate and 266 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 2: sad how this played out. But it certainly sounded like 267 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 2: Lane was whippy on the tarmac and made it seem 268 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:21,200 Speaker 2: like he was a victim and he's not all right. 269 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 2: We'll come up with the poll question more on this situation. 270 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 2: Bill Kauer actually had some thoughts. I was watching the 271 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 2: NFL today yesterday. He had some thoughts about this. Also, 272 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 2: Mike Tomlin getting booed at home fire. Mike Tomlin, chance there. 273 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 2: We'll take a break, just getting started on this Monday. 274 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 2: Glad you're on board with us. 275 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 11: Back after this, be sure to catch the live edition 276 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 11: of the Dan Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern 277 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 11: six am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio 278 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:50,480 Speaker 11: w app. 279 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 5: Hey, it's Rob Parker and Calvin Washington from The Odd 280 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 5: Couple on Fox Sports Radio. 281 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 12: And in addition to hearing us live week nights from 282 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 12: seven to ten pm Eastern on Fox Sports Radio, we 283 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 12: are excited to announce brand new YouTube channel for the show. 284 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 13: That's right, you can now watch The Odd Couple live 285 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 13: on YouTube every day. 286 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 12: All you gotta do search Odd Couple FSR on YouTube 287 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 12: again YouTube, Just search Odd Couple FSR.

By the way, I think you might 295 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 2: be surprised. The second best odds to win the Super Bowl. 296 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 2: I'll have that for you coming up in a little 297 00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 2: bit here. Sam Hutchins he covers Old Miss football for 298 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 2: Clarion Ledger, and he's had a lot to report on Sam, 299 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 2: thanks for joining us. When did you start to think 300 00:15:56,480 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 2: that Lane Kiffin was gone? 301 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 10: You know, I'd like to say I was going back 302 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 10: to Auckham's razor. I think that's what it is. Like, 303 00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 10: the simplest explanation is probably the most reliable, right, And 304 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 10: there were just one hundred small things that he would 305 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 10: have done differently over the last you know, four weeks, 306 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 10: six weeks if he were staying. So I think it was, 307 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 10: at least for me, I'm not sure there was one moment. 308 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 10: I think it was a slow drip of realization that man, like, 309 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 10: why would you do that or why would you say 310 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 10: that or why would you phrase something like that if 311 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 10: you're gonna stay in Oxford? So it was more of 312 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 10: a slow drip for me than I think a sudden. 313 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 2: Realization trying to understand what happened in the meeting with 314 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 2: the athletic director. Did he want to stay? Did he 315 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 2: threaten to take coaches? Did he threaten to take players? 316 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 2: Was he trying to leverage this where he could still 317 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 2: coach old Miss in the playoffs? 318 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 10: Yeah? Yeah, I think the College Football Playoff was throughout 319 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 10: this whole process was definitely ole Miss's best carrot to dangle, right, 320 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 10: and not only because Lane's never coached in one for 321 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 10: but you sort of are setting him up to be 322 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 10: the villain if he leaves the college football playoffs. So 323 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 10: I think that Keith Carter and that realization had set 324 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,439 Speaker 10: in pretty firmly in Oxford, even you know, after the 325 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,440 Speaker 10: Egg Bowl or we were waiting, you know, refreshing on 326 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:29,040 Speaker 10: Saturday for this whole coaching search, before it even unfolded Sunday. 327 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 10: But yeah, Lane, that was kind of the last sticking point. 328 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,439 Speaker 10: And I think maybe the Iron Bowl help things up 329 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:37,880 Speaker 10: right because if Auburn would have won, ole Miss would 330 00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:41,480 Speaker 10: be playing in the SEC Championship. But yeah, Lane definitely 331 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 10: wanted to coach in the college Football playoff. And then 332 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 10: in his statement it was pretty strongly worded, kind of 333 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 10: going after Keith Carter, the athletic director a little bit. 334 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 10: And then in his interview on the tarmac with Marty, 335 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:57,720 Speaker 10: I think he was a little more understanding of ole 336 00:17:57,760 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 10: Miss's situation and his situation. 337 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know if he understands the gravity of 338 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 2: all of this. It's like, Hey, I tried, you know, 339 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,399 Speaker 2: you know, I just I gotta go. God told me 340 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 2: to go to Lsu. I mean, it doesn't work that way. Yeah, 341 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 2: And I said, maybe jokingly, I thought he was referring 342 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,240 Speaker 2: to Nick Saban when he said I spoke to God. 343 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 2: Now he said he talked to Saban and he talked 344 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 2: to God as well. He just I don't know, And 345 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,920 Speaker 2: I mentioned this before, Sam, he seems like a chaser, 346 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,640 Speaker 2: like there are certain coaches that are never ever satisfied. 347 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,159 Speaker 2: They're chasing, chasing, they don't even know what they're chasing, 348 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 2: because even if he wins a national title, he'll still chase. 349 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,640 Speaker 2: And I just thought that, given that documentary on ESPN, 350 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,679 Speaker 2: that maybe found happiness, you know, with his family, his 351 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 2: ex wife that program. I guess that's the surprising part 352 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 2: of it. And it felt like he was trying to 353 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:54,879 Speaker 2: play a little bit of a victim there at the 354 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 2: very end that I wanted to coach him, but they 355 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 2: wouldn't let me. What do you make of all to that? 356 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 1: Yeah? 357 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 10: I thought this was truly it was so fascinating, you know, 358 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 10: not even because of the documentary that was certainly super 359 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 10: super notable, but just because of the general you know, 360 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,640 Speaker 10: I guess pr campaign might not be the right phrasing, 361 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 10: but how he turned his life around. I Actually I 362 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,640 Speaker 10: love your interviews that you've done with with Lane. Dan 363 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 10: and you talked to him when he's at Florida Atlantic, 364 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:24,160 Speaker 10: and you know, all these different spots, and that's what's been, 365 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,119 Speaker 10: you know, so beneficial about the six years he's been 366 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 10: in Oxford for both sides. Ole miss missed four straight 367 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 10: Bowl games before he got here. Look where they are. 368 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,919 Speaker 10: And and Lane was a little radioactive he you know 369 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 10: at times at Florida Atlantic, he was he was pretty wanted. 370 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 10: But Lane has never become a hotter commodity on the 371 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 10: coaching market until now. So this this has been such 372 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 10: a beneficial relationship for both sides. But I guess Dan, 373 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:56,720 Speaker 10: you'd remember more than me. But I was thinking about 374 00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 10: this last night. If it goes south in Baton Rouge, 375 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,200 Speaker 10: you know, not that I think it will. I think 376 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 10: Lane's a great coach, but I guess Brian Kelly probably 377 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 10: didn't either. But if it goes south, like where will, 378 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 10: the biggest risk to me is where will Lane? Where 379 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 10: will his name be up in the Ring of honor 380 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 10: one day at Florida Atlantic Like he doesn't. He's giving 381 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:21,640 Speaker 10: up his his home right now, and certainly I think 382 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 10: he's going to do well in Baton Rouge. They all 383 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 10: think he's going to do well, and I think he 384 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 10: You know, if you go into the Hall of Fame, 385 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 10: like the MLB debate, he may one day have like 386 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:34,360 Speaker 10: the tiger on his hat, right. But if it goes poorly, 387 00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 10: I just wonder for Lane, like, do you regret giving 388 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:42,560 Speaker 10: up your home? Giving up a place you were loved? 389 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 10: Six years in Oxford is the longest of any stopping 390 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:46,399 Speaker 10: his coaching journey. 391 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:51,399 Speaker 2: Talking to Sam Hutchins, Old misbeat reporter for the Clarion Ledger, 392 00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:54,919 Speaker 2: if the players voted, and I said this last Wednesday, 393 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,119 Speaker 2: I know he's gonna want to stay. But if the 394 00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:00,360 Speaker 2: players won him, if they took a vote and they 395 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,199 Speaker 2: wanted him to coach, then I would certainly factor that in. 396 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 2: If they had taken that vote, what do you think 397 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 2: the results would have been. 398 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:12,359 Speaker 10: I don't think it would have been unanimous, right, And 399 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 10: of course, like on a roster of one hundred plus players, 400 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:19,920 Speaker 10: of course it's not. But I think generally it had 401 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:24,199 Speaker 10: gotten to the point where players would have said go. 402 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 10: And the one aspect of this is they love Pete Golding. 403 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 10: The guy they promoted is kind of the perfect stability guy. 404 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 10: I had to call him come out. He's kind of 405 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 10: the anti Lane Kiffin. Then all Pete Golding tweets out 406 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 10: as Shark emoji, he's like his last forty eight tweets, 407 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 10: I think forty seven, I've been just a single shark emoji. 408 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 10: But he'll come in a root me as a Southern accent, 409 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,199 Speaker 10: and he fires everyone up. So he's sort of the 410 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:49,679 Speaker 10: perfect like foil to Lane to turn to if you 411 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 10: just want to stabilize the roster before your most important 412 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 10: game in program history in twenty years. But I was 413 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 10: at the Manning Center yesterday kind of talking to Frankly 414 00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:05,480 Speaker 10: any of the players who would chat on the way out, 415 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 10: and maybe it was just a small boost, a temporary boost, 416 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,600 Speaker 10: because Pete and Keith gave him a great speech, but 417 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 10: it sort of seemed to me like they were relieved 418 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 10: that it was over. And here's the deal. Their window 419 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 10: to transfer will open at the end of the season, 420 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:26,120 Speaker 10: so they can still go to LSU if they want. 421 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,680 Speaker 10: And I'm sure Lane would love to have Keewan Lacy 422 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 10: the running back. Trinidad Chamblis the quarterback. So the players 423 00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 10: I think are the biggest winner in this situation perhaps 424 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 10: because they can still go if they want, but now 425 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:40,440 Speaker 10: they can focus on, you know, potentially hosting a game 426 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:44,200 Speaker 10: in Oxford here in nineteen or twenty days, and. 427 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:49,360 Speaker 2: I'm guessing maybe a year from now in November, LSU 428 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 2: comes to Ole Miss. 429 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:57,440 Speaker 10: Correct, that's right, They're coming here next year. The Mustard 430 00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 10: models will be flying off the shelves at the Walmart. 431 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 2: Ear last question, what does the committee do to Old 432 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 2: Miss if anything, since they're losing their head coach. 433 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:14,680 Speaker 10: Yeah, that's that'll be. That's kind of the next fascinating thing. 434 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 10: The short answer is, I don't think they dropped them 435 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 10: out of a playoff spot. Maybe it's the home playoff spot, 436 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 10: maybe it's the last home playoff spot. But people have 437 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 10: been bringing up the Florida State situation when when Jordan 438 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 10: Travis got hurt. But I think the thing that some 439 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:35,639 Speaker 10: folks miss is that Florida State situation. There was a 440 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:39,199 Speaker 10: data point of Travis losing or of losing Travis, and 441 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 10: then they looked really bad in the next game. So 442 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:43,920 Speaker 10: I thought, hey, there's an argument if you're Old Miss, 443 00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:46,720 Speaker 10: you don't want to go to the SEC championship game 444 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 10: because if you lose Lane and then get boat raced 445 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:53,080 Speaker 10: by Georgia. That would maybe give the committee more of 446 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:56,640 Speaker 10: an excuse to drop you. But you know, frankly, we 447 00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 10: have no idea what this team looks like without Lane, 448 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:01,800 Speaker 10: what this team looks like without its coordinators, So I 449 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 10: think that would be a tough sell for the committee 450 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 10: to drop them out of a home playoff spot. 451 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 2: You're not going to LSU with Lane Kiffin, are you? 452 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:10,879 Speaker 10: No? 453 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 1: No? 454 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 10: He was so fun to cover Dan, and I did 455 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 10: fought yoga with him, and he was so fun. But 456 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,679 Speaker 10: there were times last year over my time on the 457 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:21,919 Speaker 10: beat that I wished I covered a normal coach, you know, 458 00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 10: who wasn't tweeting when I was at the golf course 459 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,439 Speaker 10: or at the Walmart or something. 460 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 2: Good stuff. Sam, thanks for joining us anytime. 461 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:32,199 Speaker 10: Dan appreciate you. 462 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 2: Sam Hutchins, Old Miss beat reporter for the Clarion Ledger. 463 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 2: He was good. Yeah, Lane's tricky, but Lane is really good. 464 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 2: And I will state that once again he will win 465 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 2: at LSU. He will. Is it enough to satisfy him? 466 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:50,680 Speaker 2: I don't know, and I don't know why I'm even 467 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 2: worried about it. I should care about it, but I 468 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 2: don't want old Miss to get dinged because their head 469 00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 2: coach left, and they probably will, but that would be 470 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 2: that'd be the bad part of this from the Old 471 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:10,360 Speaker 2: Miss perspective of that's hurting us right now. Lane leaves, 472 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 2: but you know he leaves a stench behind because you 473 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 2: might not get that home playoff game. Yes, Baul, you said. 474 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 3: This on Wednesday before we knew what was going to happen, 475 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 3: that if he goes to LSU Lane Kiffin, it's going 476 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:26,639 Speaker 3: to damage his reputation short term, long term. It's so 477 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:29,480 Speaker 3: not I don't know if Sad's right where it's Sports said. 478 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,120 Speaker 3: He was an old Miss. He was quirky, he was likable, 479 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 3: He poked the bear the bigger teams. It reminded me 480 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 3: of Steve Spurrier at South Carolina, a great character of 481 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:42,440 Speaker 3: the game in kind of a next tier SEC school 482 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 3: going after the heavyweights, and you root it for Old Miss, 483 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,680 Speaker 3: and you're rooted for Kiffin because it's fresh and it's 484 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 3: fun and that's gone. 485 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 2: It's gone, and you know that. I love content and 486 00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:58,640 Speaker 2: Lane is content. But yes, I think this damages his legacy. 487 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 2: I really I do.

But then 504 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 7: you have a group five or seventeens that aren't even 505 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 7: playing this weekend Oregon, Oh, miss A and m Oklahoma 506 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 7: Not your Day that basically get a bye week and 507 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 7: a guarantee spot in the college football playoff. Man, it's 508 00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 7: something they got to figure out. But it's it's crazy, man. 509 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 7: Roll tide, man, I'm gonna roll with them. And in 510 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:04,880 Speaker 7: the NFL. Real quick, there's two teams I'm looking at. 511 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:07,360 Speaker 7: What a great game last night, though, Man, I love 512 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 7: to see the fight in Washington. But the two teams 513 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:14,200 Speaker 7: that I'm looking at, man detetions. Man, their defense is stout. 514 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,119 Speaker 7: I don't know if it's the way they got it, 515 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:17,920 Speaker 7: but they're gonna be as tough out as they get 516 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 7: into the playoffs. And in the NFC. Man, the Sam 517 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 7: Francisco forty nine ers, I think this team is a 518 00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 7: Super Bowl and tender. What a crazy way to think 519 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 7: because they are just dealing with injuries. But man, they're 520 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 7: eight and two in the NFC right now, and if 521 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 7: they get in, I think they make the NFC Championship. Actually, 522 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:39,960 Speaker 7: part of the face the Niners make the NFT Championship. Man, 523 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 7: right on the spot, I can you let me know 524 00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 7: you guys have a wonderful day, man, the loose Commanders. 525 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,119 Speaker 2: All right, I'll take you up on that, James. You 526 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 2: got the Niners. They beat the Browns, by the way, Okay, 527 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 2: so let's give me a little more formidable opponent. 528 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:56,200 Speaker 1: There. 529 00:27:56,920 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 2: You're nine and four, Okay, you beat the Browns. And 530 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 2: I watched most of the game because of course I 531 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 2: have to report on Shadoor Sanders and he didn't do anything. 532 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 2: He was just look like an average quarterback there. That's all. 533 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 2: Could have been worse. He could have been the Vikings quarterback. 534 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:22,480 Speaker 4: Yes, Dylan Sanders passing prop was. 535 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 1: The most bet of the weekend. 536 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:25,440 Speaker 4: It was over one hundred and fifty passing yards. 537 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:26,880 Speaker 10: He finished with one. 538 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 2: Really, ah, rats, This drives Todd crazy. How do they 539 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:35,040 Speaker 2: understand it? 540 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:36,400 Speaker 9: How they get the half? 541 00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 7: I know? 542 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 2: How do they know that? 543 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 10: Yeah? 544 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 2: I watched a lot of the Bills and the Steelers, 545 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 2: and the Steelers look terrible. That offense nothing, nothing in 546 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 2: the second half. And I don't think Buffalo is the 547 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 2: second coming of the Steel Curtain. But you're seeing teams 548 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:01,720 Speaker 2: running the football. The Bears did this, Buffalo did this. 549 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:05,480 Speaker 2: I mean Buffalo put up numbers that people in Pittsburgh 550 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 2: haven't seen. You have to go prior to the Steel Curtain, 551 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 2: I think. But that that was a mess. Some of 552 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 2: the other games give you a sort of a cliff 553 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 2: notes version. Here, here's something to think about. The Colts 554 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 2: and the Jags are tied, but I don't think we 555 00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 2: believe in either one of them. The Ravens and the 556 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 2: Steelers are tied. I don't think we believe in either 557 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 2: one of them. And then the Cowboys beat the Eagles 558 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 2: and the Chiefs over a span of four days. Here's 559 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 2: Dak Prescott. 560 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 14: Having to get these wins against two elite teams. I mean, 561 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 14: the two teams that played in the Super Bowl last year. 562 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 14: Last year is last year. But you're talking about two 563 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 14: organizations that obviously know how to win, and we just 564 00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:51,200 Speaker 14: beat them both in two great games, as you said, 565 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:54,480 Speaker 14: in four days and just showing the resiliency of this unit, 566 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 14: of this brotherhood on top of everything that we've been through. Yeah, 567 00:29:57,760 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 14: I don't know if there's been two more impressive wins, 568 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:01,719 Speaker 14: but I can tell you right now that we're not 569 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 14: going to just sit on some high because of that. 570 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 14: We know we've got a big one coming again next week. 571 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,280 Speaker 14: And all this really does for us is just give 572 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:10,959 Speaker 14: us more confidence knowing that we can go play with whoever. 573 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:15,480 Speaker 2: That's true. What a turnaround here. We knew the offense 574 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 2: was gonna be good, but the defense. We said, if 575 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 2: the defense was even average, the offense is above average, 576 00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:26,960 Speaker 2: you can be a playoff team. Super Bowl odds right now. 577 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 2: This according to DraftKings this morning, the Rams are the favorites, 578 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:37,320 Speaker 2: followed by the Seahawks. Wow. Then it's the Packers. The 579 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 2: three best odds in the NFL are three NFC teams. 580 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:47,440 Speaker 2: Then it's Buffalo, then the Eagles, Broncos and Patriots MVP odds. 581 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 2: It's right now two quarterback race, Matthew Stafford and Drake 582 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 2: May the Matthew Stafford plus one oh five, Drake May 583 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:58,480 Speaker 2: plus one twenty. Then it goes down to Dak Prescott 584 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 2: at plus eleven. Dylan, would you update the poll results please? Yeah? 585 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 10: And so we asked, if you're the Ole miss ad, 586 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 10: would you have let Lane coach the playoff? 587 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:15,800 Speaker 4: Seventy six percent are saying no, Yeah, Paul, I thought 588 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 4: it'd be ninety percent. 589 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 15: No. 590 00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 3: I would say, the only way they could have let 591 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 3: him coach Ole miss in the playoffs if you'd taken 592 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 3: the job at Penn State or out of conference. But LSU, 593 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:28,680 Speaker 3: next to Mississippi State is their rival, it's it's next 594 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 3: door state. Wise, you can't do it. Penn State still 595 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 3: doesn't have a coach, which is interesting. A lot of rumors, 596 00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:42,480 Speaker 3: a lot of rumors there. But that's where I said 597 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 3: it before I'll say it again. James Franklin can't win 598 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 3: the Big One, but was he still the best coach 599 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 3: that you could get right now? 600 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:54,160 Speaker 8: Yeah, Marvin is Penn State looking for a coach that 601 00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:55,960 Speaker 8: can help them win a national title. Are they a 602 00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 8: national championship contender at their best? Like, do they have 603 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:01,240 Speaker 8: those type of expectations as a program? 604 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:02,360 Speaker 4: Yes? 605 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:06,280 Speaker 2: Why, yes, Well they do have a lot of talent. 606 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 2: I mean it feels like every year there, but then 607 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 2: we get into November and then all of a sudden, 608 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 2: we go they got a must win, there's a white out, 609 00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 2: they're playing Ohio State, and then Ohio State ends up winning. 610 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 8: Yes, Mark, but I always felt like they were a 611 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 8: second tier Big Ten team behind Ohio State and Michigan. 612 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 8: Were they ever like, hey, they're the best team in 613 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:32,360 Speaker 8: the Big Ten. This might be a generational thing. 614 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:36,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean a while ago they were, they were, 615 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 2: or at least they were maybe on par with Ohio 616 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:42,680 Speaker 2: State and Michigan. But now you got to Indiana in there, 617 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:49,240 Speaker 2: so it's Ohio State Indiana. I mean, Michigan didn't look good. 618 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 2: Ohio State did to Michigan what Michigan's been doing to 619 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:56,840 Speaker 2: Ohio State, and that's just being more physical. But yeah, 620 00:32:56,880 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 2: I put Penn State sort of in the conversation behind them. 621 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 2: They live in the neighborhood, but they don't have the 622 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 2: nicest house in the neighborhood.

You might do that in 658 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:10,880 Speaker 2: high school or in the backyard, and he threw a 659 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,879 Speaker 2: pick six. You know, it's a shame he's out there 660 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:15,880 Speaker 2: because he's not ready to play. It looks like a 661 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:20,440 Speaker 2: practice squad guy. But you got these injuries, and now 662 00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:23,320 Speaker 2: what are you going to do having a good backup quarterback? 663 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:27,239 Speaker 2: And they had Carson Wentz. But JJ McCarthy's situation. I mean, 664 00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:29,640 Speaker 2: this is a mess because I think most people looked 665 00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 2: at the vikings of is there going to be an 666 00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:35,399 Speaker 2: upgraded quarterback? If you're getting rid of Danny Dimes, you're 667 00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:38,759 Speaker 2: getting rid of Sam Darnold, then JJ McCarthy must be 668 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:41,880 Speaker 2: really good, and maybe he'll turn out to be. But 669 00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:45,800 Speaker 2: this is this is a team that you thought, Okay, 670 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:48,840 Speaker 2: maybe they play good defense, maybe they run the football. 671 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 2: You still have the best wide receiver in the game, 672 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 2: or at least you used to when you had a 673 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:58,719 Speaker 2: good quarterback. Painful, painful to watch. Buddha in San Francisco, 674 00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:00,680 Speaker 2: Good morning, Buddha, what's on your mind today? 675 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 7: Went up DP? 676 00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:07,880 Speaker 15: Happy Monday boys. Let let's go Paulie. And I know 677 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:11,600 Speaker 15: Paulie doesn't like to show emotion or cry, but when 678 00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:15,120 Speaker 15: was the last time your Bears were the NFC number 679 00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:19,799 Speaker 15: one seed in December? That is sweetness. So but Dan, 680 00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 15: I hesitate to bring this up and keeping this in 681 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:25,479 Speaker 15: Paulie fashion. But this weekend wasn't like full of like word. 682 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 15: It was more full of worse for me. I mean 683 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 15: from the Sunday night game last night and listening to 684 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 15: Collins with pronounced Mario to all game confusing and then 685 00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 15: to your point, Max Brosberg throwing more completions to the 686 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:42,040 Speaker 15: Seahawks into his own wide receiver justin Jefferson. 687 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 7: That was tragic. And then I mean, and. 688 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:49,759 Speaker 15: Then laying the whole Lane Kiffin thing is like, I 689 00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:51,440 Speaker 15: just don't even know what to think. I mean, that's 690 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:55,000 Speaker 15: such a bad look, as Seeden says, jeepers, creepers, And 691 00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:57,920 Speaker 15: I cannot wait for next year in Oxford, and I 692 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:00,000 Speaker 15: guess my best would be just the Rams going down 693 00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:03,279 Speaker 15: and my Niners beating the Browns. But real quick, full question, 694 00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:05,920 Speaker 15: who is more for real than Niners or the Bears? 695 00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:14,799 Speaker 2: Hmm, well, I believe in both of those teams, but 696 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:18,319 Speaker 2: you've got injuries with the Niners, like it, are they 697 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:21,360 Speaker 2: playoff teams? Yes? I felt like they were playoff teams 698 00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:27,160 Speaker 2: starting the year. But I'm surprised with the Bears. I mean, 699 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:29,920 Speaker 2: that's a big win. And maybe the Eagles aren't who 700 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 2: we thought they were, but you still beat the Eagles 701 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:36,680 Speaker 2: and you ran the ball, You've dominated them. That doesn't 702 00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:40,440 Speaker 2: happen to that defensive line. David in Ohio, Hi, David, 703 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:41,560 Speaker 2: what's on your mind? 704 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,480 Speaker 6: Hey, Dan, best and worst at the weekend. Best watching 705 00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:50,400 Speaker 6: the buck guys finally beat Mission Wolverines after two thousand 706 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:54,600 Speaker 6: some days. Worse of the weekend watching my Steelers. They're 707 00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:58,000 Speaker 6: just they're just pitiful, Dan Man. And I heard the 708 00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:00,799 Speaker 6: chance fire Mike Tomins fired my tomment and I just 709 00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 6: I just think it's time to maybe go in a 710 00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:06,480 Speaker 6: different direction. I know, what's just thinking, Oh, who are 711 00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:10,000 Speaker 6: they going to replace? Well, Marcus Freeman name been thrown around, 712 00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:12,919 Speaker 6: as well as John Gruden. His name's also in the 713 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:16,919 Speaker 6: coach transfer for I think both of those possibly could 714 00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:19,640 Speaker 6: be a good replacement for Tomlin. 715 00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:24,239 Speaker 2: So thank you, all right, thank you David Chris and Syracuse, 716 00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:25,600 Speaker 2: Hi Chris, what's on your mind? 717 00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:26,479 Speaker 16: Hey? 718 00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:27,000 Speaker 6: Thank you Dan. 719 00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 16: It's always Hey, I got a best and worst for you, 720 00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:32,040 Speaker 16: and you covered my original best well on Lane Kiff 721 00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:34,160 Speaker 16: and not being able to coach. And I too, remember 722 00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:37,440 Speaker 16: like thirty years ago or so when Ad Bowl Chambeckler 723 00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 16: at Michigan told Bill Frieder to get lost about coaching 724 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:43,120 Speaker 16: in an attorney And yeah, I guess Frieder's lucky Woody 725 00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:45,000 Speaker 16: Hayes wasn't the ad. He probably would have got to 726 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,080 Speaker 16: punch in the nose as well, and I guess I'll 727 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:50,160 Speaker 16: shift to my best maybe one of the most underrating, 728 00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 16: underrated running backs in NFL history, Frank Glare this weekend 729 00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 16: is still going. He's one of the finalists for or 730 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,480 Speaker 16: getting to that point of getting it to the Hall 731 00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:02,759 Speaker 16: of Fame. And there's a running back he had both 732 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:05,719 Speaker 16: his knees blown out, third all time leading Russia. I 733 00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:08,879 Speaker 16: hope he gets in and my worst. You know, Vanderbilt 734 00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:11,560 Speaker 16: a big win, and I guess it's because of nil 735 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:14,240 Speaker 16: on the transfer portal. Now, there are so many really 736 00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:17,960 Speaker 16: good teams, uh in football this year, and it's going 737 00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:19,840 Speaker 16: to be too bad that you know, there's gonna be 738 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:21,759 Speaker 16: some left out and I can't wait till they go 739 00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:23,040 Speaker 16: to sixteen teams. 740 00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 2: Thank you, Chris Well. It won't happen next year, probably 741 00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:31,879 Speaker 2: the year after that. Right now, Ohio State, Indiana, Georgia, Oregon, Texas, Texas, Tech, 742 00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:35,120 Speaker 2: Texas A and m Alabama, Ole Miss at Oklahoma will 743 00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:39,320 Speaker 2: get in, and based on the odds, Notre Dame, Virginia 744 00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:43,560 Speaker 2: and North Texas will be joining them. I think North 745 00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 2: Texas coach didn't he leave. I think he's there's a 746 00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 2: couple of coaches h So North Texas against Tulane. Didn't 747 00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:58,839 Speaker 2: both those coaches take other jobs yep, yeah, uh yeah. 748 00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:00,320 Speaker 4: And those got to be filled and those got to 749 00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:00,719 Speaker 4: be filled in. 750 00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:04,160 Speaker 2: Those Yeah, no gift that keeps on giving.

Bill Cowerd will join us 753 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:23,960 Speaker 2: as well. He had some sharp comments about Lane Kiffin. 754 00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:27,399 Speaker 2: We'll ask him also about those fire Mike Tomlin Chance, Yes, Paul. 755 00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:29,759 Speaker 3: On that Steeler topic, The Steelers fans got to be 756 00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:32,480 Speaker 3: in this weird position. You need your team to lose 757 00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:34,680 Speaker 3: more than win if you want a new head coach 758 00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:39,720 Speaker 3: next year. They have the Ravens, Dolphins, Lions, Browns Ravens. 759 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:43,560 Speaker 3: That's not easy, especially when you're playing poorly. But I 760 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:46,040 Speaker 3: think you need to lose to get what you want. 761 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:49,799 Speaker 2: If that's what you want, not make the playoffs, have 762 00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:51,360 Speaker 2: a losing record, like lose. 763 00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:54,080 Speaker 3: Four to the next five and then you're firing. Is 764 00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:56,160 Speaker 3: in no offense in play? 765 00:40:57,040 --> 00:41:05,040 Speaker 2: Mm feels like everything's in play now. I'm it's very 766 00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:08,680 Speaker 2: rare when I'm surprised, be like, dam I didn't see that. 767 00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:12,279 Speaker 2: We will be back next hour. I can guarantee that 768 00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:15,920 Speaker 2: we're not going anywhere. We're not going anywhere.
