1
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:06,840
Speaker 1: Welcome to the solid verbal hull. That for me, I'm

2
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:09,560
Speaker 1: a man, I'm forty. I've heard so many players say,

3
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:11,239
Speaker 1: well I want to be happy. You want to be

4
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:13,600
Speaker 1: happy for a day? Edith state is that?

00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:14,400

24
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:10,480
Speaker 2: few short minutes, But welcome back.

25
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 1: How are you? I'm good. How many times in the

26
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:17,199
Speaker 1: last five to eleven days have you answered a question with, well, technically,

27
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 1: there's an interesting game on Saturday, but it's kind of

28
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 1: like not a real week of football, but there is football,

29
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 1: but the first real week is Labor Day Saturday? Have

30
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 1: you said that four hundred and seventeen times socially in

31
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 1: the past couple weeks.

32
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:35,480
Speaker 2: I said that before I came downstairs today when Kate

33
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 2: was trying to figure out.

34
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: What exactly is going on here?

35
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 2: Why is this like something that you need to record about?

36
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 2: But it's not a full on it's a whole thing.

37
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 2: So yes, I'm with you. My guess is that the

Speaker 2: We're going to get into our big interview.

82
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 1: With Dan Jenny Dell. CBS Sports very excited to have

83
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 1: Jenny on. We I think a long time ago spoke

84
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 1: to a sideline reporter, but we haven't in a long time.

85
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 1: I think she does a great job. The CBS crew

86
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 1: does a great job. And I'm watching more of CBS

87
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 1: Sports than ever because Oregon games are on CBS now,

88
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 1: so I think they did the Oregon Michigan game we

89
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 1: went to last season, so it was very cool. We've

90
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 1: already spoken to her and I think she's great, so

91
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 1: I think you're going to enjoy that. It was terrific.

92
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 2: Got a lot of really interesting nuggets, Yes, out of

93
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 2: this interview.

94
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 1: I'm really excited for people to hear it.

95
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 2: So that's coming up a little bit later on at

96
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,600
Speaker 2: the end of the show. We also got an incredible

97
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 2: email that I have to read. Of course, absolutely have

98
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:35,160
Speaker 2: to read. At the end of the show. We need

99
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 2: to figure out what we want to do with it

100
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 2: moving forward.

101
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: Okay, could alter the course, I think from a financial perspective,

102
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,839
Speaker 1: from a spiritual perspective of the soliverbal moving forward, you

103
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 1: never know.

104
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 2: Arguably the most important email we've ever received.

105
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 1: It could be argued.

106
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 2: So why don't we start here? Iowa State twenty four

107
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 2: Kansas State twenty one. This was the first game of

108
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,479
Speaker 2: the college football season. They played it over Ireland at

109
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,480
Speaker 2: a Viva Stadium as is like, I guess our new

110
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,720
Speaker 2: tradition now on week zero, this is the thing that

111
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:06,239
Speaker 2: we're doing.

112
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,160
Speaker 1: I think Belichick, if he's still with North Carolina, I

113
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 1: think it's North Carolina next year, right.

114
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 2: North Carolina TCU so this year it's stateside, but next

115
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 2: year they're going to be the ones going abroad and

116
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 2: playing over at Aviva Stadium, so they're getting some good games.

117
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,280
Speaker 2: Of course, the one last year was pretty important. The

118
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 2: one that we've had this season so far, I think

119
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:30,279
Speaker 2: is going to have big time ramifications, certainly within the

120
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 2: Big Twelve. It was Iowa State's third straight win over

121
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 2: Kansas State. I believe the fifth and six tries now

122
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 2: for Matt Campbell, who has seemingly had Kansas State's number.

123
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 1: It was a rainy day in Ireland. Dan.

124
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 2: We had some very wicked audio delay on the broadcast.

125
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 2: I don't know if you caught that in the beginning,

126
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 2: but it was sort of like they were broadcasting from

127
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 2: the moon.

128
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:57,039
Speaker 1: Not that great.

129
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 2: Anytime you got an international broadcast, you have some of

130
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 2: these weird kinks.

131
00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:02,040
Speaker 1: YEP.

132
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 2: I think they got it fixed. But at the start

133
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 2: score bug by the way, score bug, yeah.

134
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,040
Speaker 1: Pre ESPN. I thought it looked decent. I think it's

135
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 1: still a little bit big, but you know they're working

136
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 1: through it.

137
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,719
Speaker 2: I'd imagine a rather exciting moment for you at the

138
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:21,440
Speaker 2: beginning of this broadcast when when Taylor McGregor referenced coaching Staves.

139
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 1: Did you catch that? Oh yeah, I didn't catch that.

140
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,479
Speaker 1: You told me about it. I was sort of not

141
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,360
Speaker 1: half watching this game, but I was audio on, audio off,

142
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 1: so I missed it a little bit. But when you

143
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:35,119
Speaker 1: told me that I'm influencing the influencers, tie once again,

144
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 1: so I'm happy to do it. I played it back.

145
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 1: It was definitely a Staves. It was a hard V.

146
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:42,480
Speaker 2: It was a hard V in there, a hard lvace.

147
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:46,559
Speaker 2: Love that so look comedy of airs. First five minutes

148
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 2: of this game, we had a muff punt by Dylan Edwards.

149
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 2: He got hurt on that play and didn't return, which

150
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,560
Speaker 2: is a bummer. Pay attention to that one. Then k

151
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,840
Speaker 2: State had a key interference call that went against them

152
00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 2: deep inside the red zone. It looked as if it

153
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 2: was setting up for a touchdown drive for Iowa State.

154
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 2: They subsequently fumbled A couple plays later. We had four turnovers,

155
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 2: I believe in the first half. It was an incredibly

156
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,840
Speaker 2: sloppy first half of football. Dan, Yes, the deeper we

157
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 2: got into this thing though, that's when we started to

158
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,920
Speaker 2: see it heating up like this is when we saw

159
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 2: some back and forth. We saw some drama, some gigantic

160
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 2: short yardage situations that I think ultimately decided this one.

161
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 2: A really big balls moment by Matt Campbell late going

162
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 2: forward on fourth and three, trying to ice it. They

163
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 2: connect with Carson Hansen for a fifteen yard first down.

164
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 2: All the yeah almost scored. So this was a very

165
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 2: very interesting game that started off rocky and sloppy and

166
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 2: then picked up a lot of steam as it went on.

167
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: Yes, it was it was a slow start television wise.

168
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 2: It was to put it mildly, yes.

169
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 1: And it didn't turn me off, but it was like, Okay,

170
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 1: I'm excited to see how this game grows because it's

171
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 1: a totally forgivable offense. Forget even the conditions on the

172
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:21,760
Speaker 1: field and the slickness of the rain earlier in the day.

173
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 1: You're just traveling across the pond and playing. I think

174
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 1: they got their Thursday, so it's not like they were

175
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 1: fully acclimated. They were acclimated some and in a stadium

176
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 1: not intended for American football, so the site lines are

177
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 1: a little bit different than these guys are used to,

178
00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 1: but they have time. Everybody's playing on the same field,

179
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:42,960
Speaker 1: everybody's dealing with the same conditions. But when you watch

180
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,839
Speaker 1: the first half of this game, conditions are not. You

181
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 1: understand why coaches prefer scheduling down week one, get in

182
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:56,319
Speaker 1: a rhythm, get the cobwebs off, and there's just plenty

183
00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 1: of cobwebs, and the ball security was an issue, the

184
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 1: decision was an issue, and throughout this game, both of

185
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:05,719
Speaker 1: these teams had issues popping bigger plays, at least no

186
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 1: Kansas State did at the end, and I think Iowa

187
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 1: State did a decent job through the air with intermediate passing,

188
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 1: and they ran the ball better in the second half.

189
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,600
Speaker 1: It seemed things seemed to be closer to what we

190
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 1: expected from these two teams in the second half. But yeah,

191
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 1: there was a good amount of slop and three and

192
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 1: outs and drops and I'm just I'm not holding it

193
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 1: against either of these teams in terms of my perception.

194
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 1: It's you week zero across the ocean. There were times

195
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,240
Speaker 1: where you're just like man, Iowa State not getting anything

196
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 1: done on offense, making mistakes, possibly giving the ball to

197
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:40,679
Speaker 1: the wrong running back in the first half a little

198
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 1: bit too often, and Kansas State really couldn't figure out

199
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 1: things on offense for large swaths of time, though I

200
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 1: think they outgained ended up out gaining Iowa State both

201
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 1: through the air, more efficient through the air thanks that.

202
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 1: I think it was a sixty five yard touchdown pass.

203
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 1: Later on in the game, they ran the ball a

204
00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 1: little bit more consistently, even without Dylan Edwards on the field.

205
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:04,720
Speaker 1: But it was those fourth downs. It was the opportunities

206
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 1: that Kansas State had and couldn't capitalize on, and it

207
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 1: was ultimately Iowa State with excelsior near the end of

208
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 1: the game, right it was what it's Mauser. Taylor Mauser,

209
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:19,960
Speaker 1: the offensive coordinator for Iowa State, And thankfully I would

210
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,600
Speaker 1: have been yelling at my TV. You don't kick the

211
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 1: ball in that situation. Up three, going up six with

212
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 1: two minutes left doesn't do much for you, just in

213
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,560
Speaker 1: terms of the bad outcomes outweighing the good outcomes. So

214
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 1: I was very happy to see Iowa State goal for it.

215
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,080
Speaker 1: They had to play that they were pretty confident in.

216
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,560
Speaker 1: That's what rock Obec was talking about after the game,

217
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 1: and they took care of business. That was an absolutely

218
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 1: losable game for Iowa State that they pulled out. It

219
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 1: was a well coached, well executed game. I was impressed

220
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 1: with the offensive line. As the game war on for

221
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,959
Speaker 1: Iowa State and Kansas State can be just Kansas State

222
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 1: can win this conference, they can be just fine. But

223
00:10:58,000 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm a Kansas State fan, if

224
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 1: I'm thrilled with Matt Wells in this particular moment. Well,

225
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 1: here's the thing.

226
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 2: I mean, I've you know, we track kind of what

227
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:11,079
Speaker 2: people say online, what fans of these teams say online,

228
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:15,960
Speaker 2: and there was a lot of disdain, let's say, for

229
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:20,320
Speaker 2: some of the coaching decisions, especially on fourth down. Fourth

230
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 2: downs were an issue.

231
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,720
Speaker 1: It's not bad to go for it on fourth down,

232
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 1: but you have to seem better equipped and better prepared

233
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 1: to me.

234
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 2: One of four, not a whole lot of faith in

235
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 2: the kicker. The big one was later on in the game,

236
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,480
Speaker 2: about midway through the fourth quarter. They go for it

237
00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 2: on fourth and short from their own thirty yard line.

238
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:43,080
Speaker 2: They get stop short that sets up rock O Becked

239
00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:45,959
Speaker 2: scoring the touchdown, making it a two score game, a

240
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,280
Speaker 2: ten point game twenty four to fourteen at that juncture,

241
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 2: And essentially that's what broke the serve, that gave them

242
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 2: a little bit more wiggle room and they were able

243
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,280
Speaker 2: to hold on and win this game. So I Kansas

244
00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 2: State fans, I think rightly are questioning the move. I

245
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 2: understand where they're coming from, though, because you got a

246
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 2: guy like an Avery Johnson who seemed to come into

247
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:11,040
Speaker 2: his own the deeper we got into this game. I

248
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 2: don't hate putting the ball in his hands. Just didn't work.

249
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 2: And of course, when it comes back to bite you

250
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 2: like this, everybody's going to call it out so that

251
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 2: you know he's going to have to answer for that,

252
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 2: Chris Climan is, you know. But defensively, I thought both

253
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 2: sides played pretty well defensively. But to your point, Case

254
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 2: State wore down in the second half. They wore down

255
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,600
Speaker 2: in the second half, and Matt Campbell in the post

256
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 2: game talked about how he thought his offensive line did

257
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 2: a good job. We saw Carson Hansen get on track

258
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:39,440
Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter, fifty nine rushing yards in the

259
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,200
Speaker 2: fourth quarter alone. You tack on top of it that

260
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,920
Speaker 2: big fifteen yarder that they got through the passing game

261
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:48,120
Speaker 2: on fourth and three that basically put the game on ice.

262
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 2: They were able to outlast Case State in this one,

263
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 2: and we started to see that become more of a

264
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 2: thing the deeper we got into the game. It just

265
00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 2: it started to like feel as if it were going

266
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 2: in their direction more and more with each passing second.

267
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,559
Speaker 1: Agree with everything you said. Really nice win for Iowa State,

268
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 1: Really nice win for the underbetters.

269
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 2: Oh what an all time bad beat if you took

270
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:18,959
Speaker 2: the over. So we're talking about Carson Hansen fifteen yard gain,

271
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:20,559
Speaker 2: fourth and three.

272
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:22,959
Speaker 1: Swing pass, a really nice play call, had room.

273
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 2: Had room, had a linebacker matched up with them. It

274
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:29,719
Speaker 2: was a great call, worked swimmingly, almost got into the

275
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 2: end zone. Was like an inch short.

276
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:34,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, forearm kind of slid leading up to it. Yeah.

277
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:35,920
Speaker 1: So rather than.

278
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,280
Speaker 2: Try to go for the touchdown and risk a fumble,

279
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 2: rather than do anything that could really put them at risk,

280
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,319
Speaker 2: they knew they could take three knees and just bleed

281
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,439
Speaker 2: the clock, which is exactly what they did. As such,

282
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:52,199
Speaker 2: twenty four to twenty one is your final the underhits,

283
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 2: So they were right there.

284
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,079
Speaker 1: If you bet the over. Forty nine and a half

285
00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:59,959
Speaker 1: I think was where it closed. Incredible. Yeah, point total

286
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 1: and forty five points like a foot from going over.

287
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:09,760
Speaker 1: And I think Iowa State, once again, as an underdog,

288
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 1: does not hit the over and there it's not part

289
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 1: of an overhitting and it's one of the surest things

290
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 1: in college football betting Iowa State, and I believe Iowa

291
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 1: these past few years when they're dogs, they just do

292
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 1: not score enough in a losing effort or as underdogs

293
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 1: to hit that over be part of an over. Kansas

294
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 1: State has some work to do, has some cleaning up

295
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,200
Speaker 1: to do. I think they'll be all right. I think

296
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 1: a game like this is act can actually be super helpful,

297
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 1: much more helpful than playing, you know, Missouri State or

298
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 1: something to start the season. All due respect to Missouri State,

299
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 1: well you're able to self diagnose they're going to have a.

300
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,720
Speaker 2: Four game stretch now of very winnable games. They could

301
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,800
Speaker 2: get all these kinks worked out. I mean even after

302
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 2: halftime they got better for sure, and so I think,

303
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 2: you know, hopefully Dylan Edwards is okay, then get him

304
00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 2: back out there. I mean they ran the ball okay

305
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 2: with joejack I was impressed with Avery Johnson. You know,

306
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 2: I think it took him a little bit to get going,

307
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 2: but I think he did a really good job down

308
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,640
Speaker 2: the stretch, was able to create some of those explosive

309
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 2: plays that we talked about on the preview set up.

310
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 2: I think a little bit by the threat of him

311
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 2: running like that's where the double moves come in from

312
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,360
Speaker 2: the receivers and people bite down hard and then suddenly

313
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 2: they relind you. So we saw a little bit of

314
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 2: that in this game. They were able to take advantage

315
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 2: of it. I would expect we're going to see a

316
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 2: lot more of it this season. And look, last, but

317
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 2: not least, the best of all, rocos Man the bore.

318
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:37,760
Speaker 1: The boar got it done, help lead that game winning

319
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:39,920
Speaker 1: drive for the game ceiling drive. Yeah.

320
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 2: I didn't want to get like too far out over

321
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 2: my skis, but I'm watching this game in like the

322
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,040
Speaker 2: second quarter, and it just seems apparent to me, even

323
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 2: though it was all defense in the first half, just

324
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 2: seemed like he was the most in control out there.

325
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 2: You know, it seemed like he knew exactly what he

326
00:15:57,760 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 2: was doing, where the ball was supposed to go. He

327
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 2: didn't always get a whole lot of protection. That's probably

328
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 2: a secondary conversation down the line, but truly looked like

329
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 2: a veteran in the second half. And you know, there's

330
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 2: still questions about what kind of pop they're gonna have

331
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 2: out wide, but he was just so in control in

332
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 2: this game that I was really impressed. And look, if

333
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 2: they can get a little bit more explosive in the

334
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 2: ground or on the ground. Excuse me, they.

335
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 1: Weren't really in this game.

336
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 2: Carson Hansen had a big second half, a big fourth quarter.

337
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 2: They were still like two point eight yards per carry.

338
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,120
Speaker 2: So this was not like them blowing the lid off

339
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 2: of this Kansas State defense on the ground or anything.

340
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 2: But if they can get just a little bit more

341
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 2: explosive on the ground, they're gonna be a problem. Man,

342
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 2: They're They're gonna be a problem. They're gonna be a

343
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,360
Speaker 2: tough out all year long. This is a veteran team.

344
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 1: Oh absolutely. My only other complaint was not enough cutaways

345
00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 1: to Anthony Beck in the crowd. Can we just get

346
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 1: a shot of him? Can we just see how he's doing? Man,

347
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 1: Anthony Beck got more shots than Matt Campbell. Anthony Beck

348
00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:01,320
Speaker 1: needs to sell some some shirt time to visa to

349
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 1: what was the old boxing one Golden Golden Tea's the

350
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,200
Speaker 1: video game there was, Remember that the boxers would get

351
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,639
Speaker 1: like the tattoos that would stay on during of like

352
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:14,919
Speaker 1: the old casinos. Oh now I'm forgetting that's stupid.

353
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,960
Speaker 2: It's nice golden nugget, It's Uh, I know exactly what

354
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:18,240
Speaker 2: you mean.

355
00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, Boxing, Hair Live, Google, Boxing Casino, Golden tattoo.

356
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 1: Yeah that there was Golden Palace, the palace. That's it.

357
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:32,400
Speaker 1: And the other thing that just was frustrating. And it's

358
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:35,879
Speaker 1: not anyone's specific's fault that I can name. It was

359
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:39,800
Speaker 1: like watching a game on a field that was just

360
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,639
Speaker 1: in a pasture for like a minute and a half.

361
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:47,400
Speaker 1: And I don't know what the solution is, but if

362
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,720
Speaker 1: rain is going to completely wipe wipe out an ability

363
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:52,679
Speaker 1: of a television viewer to see where you are on

364
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:55,639
Speaker 1: the field, clearly we need to go back to do

365
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,160
Speaker 1: some some painting R and D or something.

366
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 2: Well they painted at halftime again, I know they did.

367
00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:05,000
Speaker 2: Seconds it didn't make a lick of difference. When guys

368
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:06,639
Speaker 2: were sliding, it was like they were on a slipping

369
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 2: slide out. Some people online were talking about call it

370
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,399
Speaker 2: a slip and slide. That's what it was. Yeah, it

371
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,680
Speaker 2: looks like they were painting with Alfredo sauce. It did

372
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 2: not stick. It just did at work.

373
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 1: No, we got to go. The good people at aer

374
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,720
Speaker 1: Lingus and Aviva need to get back in the lab

375
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:24,640
Speaker 1: for next year because that was a tough, tough visual.

376
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 2: That's all as we come on the air today. We're

377
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 2: recording this around dinnertime on Saturday. Still a bit in

378
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 2: doubt with this unl V game, Like we'll talk about

379
00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:41,399
Speaker 2: it at some point on our next episode. They have

380
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,240
Speaker 2: just now taken the lead. But it was a rough

381
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,400
Speaker 2: start for the Dan Mullen era. We saw a little

382
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,240
Speaker 2: bit of both Alex Orgin and Alex Calandria. As promised.

383
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 2: I had a lot more on the ground than really

384
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:56,040
Speaker 2: anywhere else, but a bit of a slow.

385
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:57,200
Speaker 1: Start for Mullen.

386
00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,199
Speaker 2: There are, of course, a couple other games that we

387
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:05,000
Speaker 2: will talk about out in passing on our next episode. Fresno, Kansas, Stanford, Hawaii,

388
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,679
Speaker 2: Western Kentucky's playing a game as well against Sam Houston.

389
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 2: So we'll get into all that on the next episode,

390
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,440
Speaker 2: I promise you. But for now, congratulations saw the Iowa

391
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:15,239
Speaker 2: State people out there is a big farm again win

392
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 2: for you.

393
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:20,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, a weird opening rivalry game abroad. Was pumped to

394
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,359
Speaker 1: see the support of Iowa State fans and Kansas State

395
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 1: fans there in the crowd. Pretty cool, Dan.

396
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:29,520
Speaker 2: Without further ado, why don't we get to our guest

Speaker 2: of honor today? Shall we please all right, Dan, we

00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:36,520
Speaker 2: are joined right now. First time guest on the show.

399
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 2: Her name is Jenny Dell. She is the lead college

400
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,919
Speaker 2: football reporter for CBS Sports.

401
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:43,439
Speaker 1: Jenny, Welcome to the show. How are you.

402
00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 3: I'm great, happy to be here, Thanks for having me.

403
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:48,760
Speaker 1: Absolutely. Are you ready for the season?

404
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 3: I'm so ready. It's crazy because I feel like this

405
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:55,400
Speaker 3: off season flew by, and yet there's always so much

406
00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 3: news and information coming in the world to college football

407
00:19:57,760 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 3: that I feel like it never really ended. So the

408
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:02,360
Speaker 3: fact that you know week zero is here, Week one

409
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:03,960
Speaker 3: is coming next week and we get to go back

410
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,320
Speaker 3: out on the road, I'm itching ready to go.

411
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,680
Speaker 2: So, like, walk us through your prep like right now,

412
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:12,240
Speaker 2: it's kind of like the last week in of freedom. Right,

413
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:17,080
Speaker 2: What is the Jennie Dell prep regimen at this juncture

414
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 2: before things get crazy next week?

415
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 3: Are you ready for this?

416
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:20,679
Speaker 1: Ready?

417
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 3: So? I started prepping for my Week one game probably

418
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 3: a month ago, because you know, that's just the way

419
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,199
Speaker 3: my brain works. I think the exciting thing, especially at

420
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,399
Speaker 3: the beginning of the year, it's like it's fresh start.

421
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:34,159
Speaker 3: You know, a lot of teams are just trying to

422
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 3: figure out who they are, who are these new players

423
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 3: who are these new coaches. So I'm lucky to have

424
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 3: Penn State again for week one, which is a team

425
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:44,639
Speaker 3: I'm very familiar with, and there are I know, I

426
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 3: got Penn State here, but there are a lot of

427
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,560
Speaker 3: returning guys that I'm comfortable with and know their stories,

428
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:52,280
Speaker 3: so it's just diving deeper on them, and then also

429
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,359
Speaker 3: figuring out who are we welcoming in what you know,

430
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,040
Speaker 3: what new storylines are we going to tell. So I

431
00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 3: think that you know, you do your research all off

432
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:03,600
Speaker 3: season to prepare for these games, and then right before

433
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:08,400
Speaker 3: week one of the season, it's just diving deeper into

434
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,320
Speaker 3: these programs, listening to the podcast, you know, watching all

435
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:14,680
Speaker 3: the news that rolls out, scouring social media and seeing

436
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 3: if you're missing anything. And then the week leading up,

437
00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 3: it's chatting with all the players, chatting with the coaches,

438
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 3: talking to players, old coaches, parents, whoever you can get

439
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:26,000
Speaker 3: your hands on to try to make sure you're telling

440
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:27,160
Speaker 3: all the proper stories.

441
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:30,560
Speaker 1: So once you get to state college in this instance,

442
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 1: what's the move? What is your strategy once you're there?

443
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 1: Do you have go to questions that you feel like

444
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,639
Speaker 1: do a better job getting solid nuggets than maybe you

445
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:45,440
Speaker 1: did five years ago? Is what is the order of operations?

446
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,400
Speaker 3: It's all a progression, right, So any job that you're in,

447
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:50,320
Speaker 3: you know, the longer you do it, the more you

448
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,439
Speaker 3: figure out the right ways to do it, and what

449
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:56,800
Speaker 3: also wastes time. So this season, in particular, I'm going

450
00:21:56,840 --> 00:22:00,480
Speaker 3: to try to focus in on what's most important and

451
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 3: not just try and learn every little detail of every

452
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 3: single player of every single team, because there's a lot

453
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 3: of information that goes to the wayside. And I look

454
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 3: at some of my scouting reports and my news reports

455
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:16,040
Speaker 3: from years past, and especially you know, this is my

456
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:19,720
Speaker 3: twelfth season, so from a decade ago, and I'm like,

457
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:22,480
Speaker 3: how do I have one hundred pages of notes? When

458
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,160
Speaker 3: would I ever get any of this information? And then

459
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:28,120
Speaker 3: instead of focusing in on the most important stories and

460
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 3: really diving deep into those and making sure that you

461
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,880
Speaker 3: have the proper elements to make the broadcast better, it's

462
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 3: like you're just overwhelmed with all this information. And I

463
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:40,080
Speaker 3: remember the first time I was doing the sec with

464
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,880
Speaker 3: with Brad and Gary my crew, and I sent them

465
00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:46,680
Speaker 3: my doc probably a night or two before the game,

466
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 3: and it was like fifty pages long, sure, and they

467
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:53,359
Speaker 3: were like you're not reading this, you can you just

468
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:56,400
Speaker 3: give us your know, your five best stories and we'll

469
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,360
Speaker 3: go from there. So just this year, I'm really going

470
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:02,320
Speaker 3: to try to to cut down on the amount and

471
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:06,119
Speaker 3: really focus in on those key storylines. And I know

472
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,879
Speaker 3: I'm going to say that now, and I mean my

473
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:11,480
Speaker 3: notes are already twenty pages long for the week one game.

474
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:12,719
Speaker 3: So I'll do my best.

475
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:16,679
Speaker 1: So what are what are the stories you like? Personally? Right,

476
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:18,920
Speaker 1: there's a number of different angles. So you go to wherever,

477
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,160
Speaker 1: you go to State College, you go to jean An Arbor, whatever.

478
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 1: So are you zeroing in on a player because the

479
00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,400
Speaker 1: player is interesting? Are you zeroing in on a star

480
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 1: because you know that's going to be interesting for viewers?

481
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 1: Are you looking for a feel good story? Are you

482
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:32,200
Speaker 1: looking forward?

483
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:32,320
Speaker 3: Like?

484
00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:34,160
Speaker 1: What is it? All of the above?

485
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 2: Oh?

486
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:36,560
Speaker 3: You love? And I think that's the hard part is

487
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:41,159
Speaker 3: because you want My job as a sideline reporter is

488
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 3: to tell the stories of these players, tell the stories

489
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:47,919
Speaker 3: of these universities, tell the stories the feel good stories

490
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,439
Speaker 3: that make you want to connect with these guys. I

491
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:53,600
Speaker 3: want to get deeper than just the x's and o's always,

492
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,120
Speaker 3: And while that is such a key part to the game.

493
00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:00,640
Speaker 3: It's my job to humanize all of these players, coaches,

494
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:04,120
Speaker 3: these programs, these universities. So how do you tell those

495
00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:06,680
Speaker 3: stories within a football game and have it make sense?

496
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 3: I think that's that's the key thing. So for for

497
00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 3: week one, you know, obviously with Penn State, with Nevada

498
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:18,359
Speaker 3: coming in, it's just honing in on what do people

499
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:20,800
Speaker 3: at home want to hear about? And then if there's

500
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 3: a story that's out there, how can I dive deeper

501
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 3: into that and give you some information that you might

502
00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 3: not know. So, whether that's reaching out to a former coach,

503
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 3: you know, whether it's reaching out to Saquon barklay about

504
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 3: about you know, the running back situation and what we

505
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,919
Speaker 3: can expect in Singleton and Kitroon Allen is here, whatever

506
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 3: it may be, try to give a different, unique perspective

507
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:43,919
Speaker 3: of something that you might not know just sitting at

508
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,399
Speaker 3: home on the couch. That's what I feel like is

509
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:47,240
Speaker 3: my goal.

510
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 1: How long do you have to tell that story? What

511
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 1: like are your producers saying, take ninety seconds? Take too much?

512
00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 3: Now ninety seconds?

513
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:58,480
Speaker 1: Or take fifteen seconds to tell us about Seqon Park seconds?

514
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:00,719
Speaker 3: You have twenty seconds, you're in You're out. You have

515
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,719
Speaker 3: to be done before that ball snaps, because of that

516
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,560
Speaker 3: ball snaps and there's like a crazy hail Mary pass

517
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 3: or there's a wild year.

518
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 1: I was thinking pregame, okay, Fair, Oh.

519
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I'm talking. I'm talking in game pregame you

520
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:15,280
Speaker 3: have a little bit more flexibility. If you're doing a

521
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 3: studio show, you have a little bit more time. But

522
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 3: in game, I mean, I try to make sure I

523
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:23,920
Speaker 3: can tell the story in under twenty five seconds, which

524
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:25,880
Speaker 3: is not easy. There's a lot of information.

525
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,199
Speaker 1: How many words is under twenty five seconds? Are you

526
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:28,920
Speaker 1: typing this out?

527
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,960
Speaker 3: I should? I should? I should open up now? It

528
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:32,840
Speaker 3: sits all in here?

529
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:36,800
Speaker 2: Okay, Fair, I've always wondered this, and I imagine you're

530
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 2: the right person to ask, what is the trick to

531
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:43,639
Speaker 2: getting like insider information when you are down on the sidelines,

532
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 2: because for people who haven't been on the sidelines, it's.

533
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 1: Pure chaos down there.

534
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,720
Speaker 2: You can't see anything, and it's not like Sharon Moore

535
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 2: is pointing to a guy's collarbone and saying, yeah.

536
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 1: This is what check it out? Yeah, how do you

537
00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:57,680
Speaker 1: go about getting all over here?

538
00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:03,760
Speaker 3: Okay? So that's first of all, you learn instinctually you

539
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:06,879
Speaker 3: get trained in a different way to be almost like

540
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:09,639
Speaker 3: the eyes and the ears on the field. Okay, so

541
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 3: you are on the lookout at all times for anything

542
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 3: that could be noteworthy, whether it's an injury. You're like,

543
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:19,679
Speaker 3: that guy was limping off a little bit, I'm going

544
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:21,960
Speaker 3: to go run over and see what I can see.

545
00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:24,959
Speaker 3: The hard part is, obviously I'm not a doctor. You know,

546
00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:28,639
Speaker 3: I have covered football long enough to understand injuries, but

547
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:32,040
Speaker 3: I never want to report something that's not true. So

548
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:34,400
Speaker 3: it's really just Okay, what are you seeing right now?

549
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:38,280
Speaker 3: And how do you visually explain that to folks at home,

550
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:42,120
Speaker 3: because sometimes our cameras aren't catching what I'm seeing, or

551
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,199
Speaker 3: it's too late, and I'm like, they were looking at

552
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 3: the guy's eyes, or they were, you know, checking out

553
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,439
Speaker 3: that tweak in his ankle, whatever it may be. But

554
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:51,639
Speaker 3: also you don't want to speculate an injury. So it's

555
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 3: a very fine line of making sure you're not reporting

556
00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:00,119
Speaker 3: anything that's not true, but also just being honest with

557
00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:01,879
Speaker 3: with what you're seeing. So you have to trust in

558
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:04,200
Speaker 3: yourself and your instincts to say, all right, this is

559
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:08,080
Speaker 3: what's going on. And a lot of it also comes

560
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 3: down to trust with the people that are on the

561
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,280
Speaker 3: sideline with you. So whether that's the school SID, which

562
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,720
Speaker 3: is you know, almost their PR people. For folks that

563
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:21,000
Speaker 3: don't know what an SID is, it's the school information director.

564
00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:23,880
Speaker 3: They're the ones that will give you some information from

565
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:27,000
Speaker 3: time to time. But a lot of these programs are

566
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,399
Speaker 3: going away from giving you any information at all, so

567
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:31,800
Speaker 3: it's making the sideline job a lot more difficult. In

568
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 3: the NFL, you'll almost get a report that says, you know,

569
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:39,400
Speaker 3: this player is dealing with a left leg injury, he's

570
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,640
Speaker 3: questionable to return. In college, you're not getting anything from

571
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:46,479
Speaker 3: some of these schools, so it's very difficult to make

572
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:49,199
Speaker 3: sure you're reporting on the correct things and that you know,

573
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:51,639
Speaker 3: these kids' parents might be sitting at home watching and

574
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,400
Speaker 3: you don't want to ever especially with sports betting now too,

575
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:56,240
Speaker 3: it's like you just want to make sure you're giving

576
00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,840
Speaker 3: the proper information at all times. And a lot of

577
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 3: that just comes back to trusting what you're seeing and

578
00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:02,639
Speaker 3: trusting your own eyes.

579
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:04,640
Speaker 1: Can you turn that off when you're at a restaurant

580
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 1: and you notice, like a first date going terribly in

581
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 1: the corner? Yeah, are you just constantly scanning for like

582
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 1: life news.

583
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:15,400
Speaker 3: Life news at all times. My husband's like, what's wrong

584
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:16,679
Speaker 3: with you? I'm like, what do you think is happening

585
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 3: over there?

586
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,240
Speaker 1: Can you just the guy with the weird eye? The

587
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 1: vibe is off one on over here?

588
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:26,240
Speaker 3: I got to check in. Yeah, no, I try. I

589
00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 3: try to chill out here and there.

590
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 1: Fair enough. When when you're on the sideline, when there

591
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:34,000
Speaker 1: is somebody injured and they go into an injury tent,

592
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,400
Speaker 1: I just want to know the mechanics of the injury tent.

593
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:38,160
Speaker 1: I want to know who's in charge of the injury tent.

594
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:39,960
Speaker 1: I want to know if something has ever gone wrong

595
00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 1: with the mechanics of launching the injury tent. Has there

596
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:44,920
Speaker 1: been a tent incident?

597
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 3: There's been tent well, there's been a couple tent incidents.

598
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:52,720
Speaker 3: I continue so again not to date myself, but I

599
00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:56,400
Speaker 3: when I started doing sideline reporting, the injury tents didn't exist.

600
00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 3: You know, they would just be laying out on the sideline.

601
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:04,200
Speaker 3: I'm like, hey, this guy's dealing with a right shoulder injury.

602
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,160
Speaker 3: Now It's like you have to almost be a little

603
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 3: FBI agent and you're trying to walk by, but you

604
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 3: also have to be very aware that you're really not

605
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:17,320
Speaker 3: supposed to be walking by the bench back and forth.

606
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,560
Speaker 3: So it's like this little game that we all play

607
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,479
Speaker 3: where you have to be respectful of the team and

608
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,160
Speaker 3: the player and the medical staff and making sure you're

609
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,080
Speaker 3: giving them their space, but you're also trying to do

610
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:31,840
Speaker 3: your job. So you know, I'll do a little pass

611
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,680
Speaker 3: by and usually there's the zipper by the injury tent,

612
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:43,160
Speaker 3: so you might just you know, deal, what's happen. Oh

613
00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:45,680
Speaker 3: you're listening, You're like, do I hear screaming? Do I

614
00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:47,880
Speaker 3: hear yelling? That That became a situation.

615
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 1: I was, so you can report on screaming, you can.

616
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:55,760
Speaker 3: You might get some pushback. So I was covering Bryce

617
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:59,719
Speaker 3: Young's injury. Was my first Alabama game, my first season

618
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:06,120
Speaker 3: on the SEC on CBS. It was against Arkansas, and

619
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 3: I had walked by the injury tent and Bryce was

620
00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 3: was upset and yelling and I reported on that, and

621
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 3: there was there was a little pushback on, hey, let's

622
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 3: just make sure we're we're reporting on things that we

623
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 3: should be and I was like, I thought that was

624
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:25,560
Speaker 3: my job. So you have to be very careful on

625
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:29,320
Speaker 3: what you're saying, and especially depending on the program and

626
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:33,440
Speaker 3: the university. Sometimes you have to just tiptoe around things

627
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:34,960
Speaker 3: a little bit more.

628
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:39,840
Speaker 2: I think I watched that clip Jenny before yeah, this interview,

629
00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 2: and I did actually have a question sort of related

630
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:46,120
Speaker 2: to that. Like your job is to catch coaches, it's

631
00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:49,960
Speaker 2: to catch players at some of their most vulnerable moments. Right,

632
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:53,200
Speaker 2: there's got to be i'd imagine from your side, some

633
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,920
Speaker 2: bit of voodoo with what can I ask and get

634
00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 2: an answer that adds to the broadcast versus what shouldn't

635
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 2: I ask?

636
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:03,200
Speaker 1: What might be going a little bit too far?

637
00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 2: Because some of these guys, again, you're catching them after

638
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:10,520
Speaker 2: a loss, after an emotional like it's hard. I'd imagine

639
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:14,959
Speaker 2: it's difficult to walk that balance. So A, what is

640
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:17,479
Speaker 2: your formula for coming up with those questions? Is there

641
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 2: a formula? And B what is it ultimately that you're

642
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:22,960
Speaker 2: trying to get out of these interview subjects when you're

643
00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:25,160
Speaker 2: down there on the sidelines in the heat of the moment.

644
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 3: I'll answer be first. I think in the heat of

645
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:31,120
Speaker 3: the moment, I always resort back to my dad's a

646
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,280
Speaker 3: huge sports fan. That's how I got into sports. I

647
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:35,720
Speaker 3: always resort back to if my dad's sitting at home

648
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 3: on the couch right now. What does he want to

649
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 3: hear the coaches say? What questions does he want answered?

650
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:45,440
Speaker 3: And that's the way that I form my question. It's

651
00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:48,240
Speaker 3: almost like, what do I want the coach to say?

652
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 3: How do I get him to say this? And how

653
00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 3: do I get him to say it in a manner

654
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:55,360
Speaker 3: where he's not frustrated that I asked a certain question?

655
00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:58,880
Speaker 3: And I think a lot of this goes back to

656
00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:04,239
Speaker 3: learning the personalities of the coaches and knowing how to

657
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:06,840
Speaker 3: work with them so that you're asking the right question

658
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 3: in a respectful way, because there are a lot of

659
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,880
Speaker 3: tense moments down there, especially if it's coming after an

660
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:16,680
Speaker 3: injury to a key player or a loss, and just

661
00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:21,800
Speaker 3: making sure that you establish those relationships. And that's something

662
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:25,040
Speaker 3: that was kind of difficult. After working a few years

663
00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:28,000
Speaker 3: in the SEC. You grow these relationships with these coaches

664
00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 3: and with these schools where they know they can trust

665
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:33,320
Speaker 3: you and they know that you're not out to get them,

666
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 3: because that is the last thing that I want to do,

667
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 3: but I also need to do my job. So when

668
00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 3: we first started doing the Big Ten, it's just re

669
00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:46,120
Speaker 3: establishing relationships with these coaches so we sit down with

670
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 3: them throughout the week in different meetings. We're usually in

671
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:51,600
Speaker 3: front of them every Friday for production meetings, So they

672
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:54,200
Speaker 3: get to know your personality and they know the ins

673
00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:56,120
Speaker 3: and outs of why you're doing what you're doing and

674
00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:58,640
Speaker 3: why you're asking the questions that you are. And also

675
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:02,800
Speaker 3: you bond, you know, you form a friendship or relationship.

676
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:07,800
Speaker 3: And there's certain coaches that you can ask questions to

677
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 3: in certain ways, and then there's other coaches that I'm like,

678
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,240
Speaker 3: I would never ask a coach this question this certain

679
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:16,080
Speaker 3: way because I know what his response is going to be,

680
00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 3: so I need to bard it in a different manner.

681
00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:21,440
Speaker 3: So it's just learning the personalities and making sure you

682
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:26,120
Speaker 3: establish a trust with those coaches where you know we're

683
00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:28,440
Speaker 3: on the same page here. You know, we're all just

684
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:31,800
Speaker 3: trying to report on what's going on. You're trying to

685
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:33,880
Speaker 3: coach this team to the best of your ability. I'm

686
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 3: trying to broadcast this interview the best way that I can.

687
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:41,840
Speaker 3: So it's like a little bit of a of a

688
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:46,000
Speaker 3: tiptoe with certain guys, but you learn the way to

689
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:48,240
Speaker 3: ask certain questions to certain players and coaches.

690
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 1: Have you ever asked a question gotten a nothing response

691
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:55,080
Speaker 1: and been caught on camera making a thanks for nothing face.

692
00:33:56,960 --> 00:34:01,320
Speaker 1: Because I say this just speaking about myself. I couldn't

693
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 1: help it if I got a terrible and I was like, okay,

694
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,800
Speaker 1: thanks so much, Like have you ever been caught doing that?

695
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:08,360
Speaker 1: Because that would be terrifying to me.

696
00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:15,000
Speaker 3: I feel like I have gotten pretty good at internalizing

697
00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:19,520
Speaker 3: those total problems. Going back to that the Bryce Young situation.

698
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:25,160
Speaker 3: I postgame Alabama one, I asked coach Saban a question.

699
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 3: I used Bryce's name in the beginning of the question,

700
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:31,400
Speaker 3: but I didn't ask about Bryce. I said, you know,

701
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:35,880
Speaker 3: your heisman when in quarterback goes down and the rest

702
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:38,400
Speaker 3: of this team stepped up, what does that say about

703
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:42,720
Speaker 3: the depth of the verse, resilience whatever? Right, he heard

704
00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 3: Bryce Young, and then that's all he heard. So he

705
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:48,200
Speaker 3: came back at me and said, why would you ask

706
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:50,520
Speaker 3: me about Bryce Young? We just won the game. Why

707
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 3: wouldn't you ask about the team?

708
00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:52,560
Speaker 1: Right?

709
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 3: And inside, I'm like, I did just ask about this game.

710
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:58,600
Speaker 3: I didn't ask about Bryce Young. But you're live on

711
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,839
Speaker 3: national television. There's millions of people watching you. So I'm like, yeah,

712
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:02,959
Speaker 3: let's talk about the team.

713
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:04,719
Speaker 1: Let's go.

714
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:08,239
Speaker 3: So you know there there are situations like that that

715
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:10,080
Speaker 3: you just kind of have to take a step back

716
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:12,880
Speaker 3: and be like, don't show your emotions on your face,

717
00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 3: just just roll with it. But that's hey, that's life, right.

718
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:17,799
Speaker 3: There's so many times that you want to go out

719
00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:20,080
Speaker 3: there and say something and you're like, Nope, not going

720
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:20,480
Speaker 3: to get me.

721
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:23,440
Speaker 1: That's my entire life is stopping myself from saying things

722
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:24,440
Speaker 1: I shouldn't be continued.

723
00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:27,520
Speaker 2: Hi, did Nick Saban have the best camera instincts of

724
00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:28,680
Speaker 2: any coach who ever interviewed?

725
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:31,719
Speaker 3: Oh my god, he's amazing. I love that man. We

726
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:35,400
Speaker 3: have such a ever since that that situation, that game,

727
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:37,760
Speaker 3: we had a we had to sit down, we talked

728
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,000
Speaker 3: through it, we got through it, and then we were

729
00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:42,440
Speaker 3: we were bonded from that point forward.

730
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,719
Speaker 1: So he's always looking, but you always camera weird, like

731
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:47,200
Speaker 1: you know, he.

732
00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:49,719
Speaker 3: Knows, he knows, he's a genius.

733
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:54,800
Speaker 2: Another situation of yours that I recall pretty vividly three

734
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:59,319
Speaker 2: years ago, ish, I guess that very specific moment when

735
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:02,480
Speaker 2: you're on the field interviewing Josh Hipel after they beat Alabama,

736
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,480
Speaker 2: the crowds out, everyone's going nuts, But you've got a

737
00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 2: job to do, right, you're the professional down there. What

738
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:13,000
Speaker 2: is going on in your head trying to operate in

739
00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:15,279
Speaker 2: a setting like that, because it looked like you were

740
00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:17,440
Speaker 2: having fun, But I got to think you're at least

741
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 2: a little bit concerned, like, am I going to get

742
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:19,680
Speaker 2: trampled here?

743
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 1: With ready to throw an exit plan? How does this

744
00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:22,600
Speaker 1: all work?

745
00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:25,120
Speaker 3: That was one of the coolest moments of my life,

746
00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:30,239
Speaker 3: being on that field in one hundred thousand fans storming

747
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:34,839
Speaker 3: the field. There's like fireworks going off, Everyone's jumping up

748
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:38,360
Speaker 3: and down. My only thought is I need to get

749
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:40,920
Speaker 3: to the handshakes, like I need to get to Hypel

750
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 3: and Saban because if I don't run out there before

751
00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:47,840
Speaker 3: everyone else does, I'm not gonna find it. There's no shot.

752
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,960
Speaker 3: So I just I mean the second that I could,

753
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:54,040
Speaker 3: I'm sprinting out on the field and just running along

754
00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:57,760
Speaker 3: all of the players, the fans, everything going. My mom.

755
00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:01,400
Speaker 3: If you looked at my tech afterwards, it was like,

756
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:03,799
Speaker 3: are you alive? Are you okay? Oh my god, I'm

757
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:06,640
Speaker 3: so worried about you. Why aren't you responding? They're taking

758
00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:09,080
Speaker 3: the polls down right out the post down right now?

759
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:12,799
Speaker 3: What do I do? I'm like, you, we're good so

760
00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:16,280
Speaker 3: there's so much going on, and I think in those moments,

761
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:19,200
Speaker 3: it's like you just feel so honored to be a

762
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,200
Speaker 3: part of it and to be able to be there,

763
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:24,040
Speaker 3: that you want to make sure you're asking, you know,

764
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:26,200
Speaker 3: the right questions, you're getting to the interview that you

765
00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:29,120
Speaker 3: need to get to. And once we finished the interview,

766
00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:33,279
Speaker 3: my producer Craig Silver, who's just an absolute legend, is like, Okay, well,

767
00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:35,359
Speaker 3: I need you to go find a player. And I

768
00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 3: remember jumping up and down being like, Craig, I don't

769
00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:43,240
Speaker 3: see any players, Like there's no way I can find

770
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:45,560
Speaker 3: anyone else in this mess right now, and he's like,

771
00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:47,440
Speaker 3: just get off the field safely. I was like, if

772
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:49,200
Speaker 3: I find someone on my way out, I'll let you know.

773
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:51,719
Speaker 3: We have security down there that try to make sure

774
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:55,480
Speaker 3: that we're safe. But I just took a moment right

775
00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:57,600
Speaker 3: when I finished that interview. And I'm not sure if

776
00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:02,840
Speaker 3: you recalled, but I handed Hypel a box of cigars

777
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:08,400
Speaker 3: after that interview, right and I have this like clear

778
00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:10,879
Speaker 3: moment that I would just will never forget of him,

779
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 3: just like putting the box of cigars up in the air,

780
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:18,319
Speaker 3: and I just like spun around and took it all in.

781
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:21,319
Speaker 3: I'm like, how freaking cool is it that this is

782
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:24,239
Speaker 3: what I get to do as my job for my profession.

783
00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:30,440
Speaker 3: And it'll it'll never just I'll never I'll never forget

784
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 3: moments like that. I just appreciate it so much, and

785
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:37,759
Speaker 3: I I just remember being like, this is going to

786
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:40,520
Speaker 3: be one of those moments that I'll never forget. It's

787
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:42,600
Speaker 3: just it was so special. It was so special. Yeah,

788
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:44,960
Speaker 3: I mean, it's scary when there's there's people coming at you.

789
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:50,200
Speaker 1: Well, Tennessee fans are notoriously reserved and gracious with their

790
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:54,080
Speaker 1: football views and emotions, so I don't you know, they

791
00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:58,560
Speaker 1: get they get riled up, but they're are notably harmless.

792
00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:01,600
Speaker 1: That's the reputation, right, Yeah, no, I'm sure that's exactly it.

793
00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:07,359
Speaker 2: Has there been a difference for you in covering Big

794
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:12,520
Speaker 2: ten games versus SEC games, I would.

795
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:15,319
Speaker 3: Say the biggest difference, and this has nothing to do

796
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 3: with the actual games.

797
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,400
Speaker 1: Warm hats, the weather.

798
00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:22,600
Speaker 3: Yes, that that that's definitely one thing I would say

799
00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:25,440
Speaker 3: for me, the biggest difference. So every every Thursday we

800
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:29,080
Speaker 3: fly in to prepare for the weekend, and this is

801
00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:32,400
Speaker 3: a tradition that our crew has started. You know, decades before.

802
00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:35,840
Speaker 3: But I'll go out to dinner every Thursday night. It's myself,

803
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:39,560
Speaker 3: Brad Nessler, Gary Danielson, our producer Craig Silver, and our

804
00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:42,560
Speaker 3: director Steve Milton, and you know, all all four of

805
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:44,719
Speaker 3: those guys are just the best at what they do.

806
00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:48,319
Speaker 3: But every Thursday we sit down, just the five of us,

807
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:50,520
Speaker 3: Me and me and the guys, and we have dinner

808
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:53,600
Speaker 3: somewhere in the town in the city of the game

809
00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:56,480
Speaker 3: we're covering. I would say the only the main difference

810
00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:59,920
Speaker 3: that I've seen is when we were doing SEC game,

811
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:06,440
Speaker 3: those Thursday night dinners were packed and everyone was talking

812
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:09,200
Speaker 3: about the game that weekend. It was like the only

813
00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:12,120
Speaker 3: thing that mattered in that town, in that city. That's it.

814
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:14,759
Speaker 3: With the Big Ten, I feel like Thursdays are a

815
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:16,800
Speaker 3: little bit more normal, they're a little bit more chill,

816
00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:20,279
Speaker 3: and then Fridays things start getting a little crazy, and

817
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:22,879
Speaker 3: then game Day Saturdays obviously are wild. But I would

818
00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:26,080
Speaker 3: say that's really the only the only difference that I

819
00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:28,880
Speaker 3: can come up with when when you're thinking about, you know,

820
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:32,359
Speaker 3: the change from the SEC did the Big Ten, So.

821
00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:34,440
Speaker 1: Then what are the restaurants in the Big Ten? You

822
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:37,080
Speaker 1: host campus eats, Big ten network. You see that tie.

823
00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:39,560
Speaker 1: That's a pro transition. They don't teach you that in

824
00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:42,360
Speaker 1: journalism school. You just have to have it in your marrow.

825
00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:43,359
Speaker 3: That was so good.

826
00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:46,239
Speaker 1: Thank you very good. So you're around the Big Ten,

827
00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:49,239
Speaker 1: you around the SEC. Are there restaurants that are on

828
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 1: your list that you have not been to? Cities you

829
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:54,640
Speaker 1: have not been to? So you're deep in this world.

830
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:58,000
Speaker 1: So what is what is in your fifty page restaurant talkward?

831
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:02,759
Speaker 3: It exists, don't you worry. I think that's also one

832
00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:05,120
Speaker 3: of the biggest changes too, is when we were doing

833
00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:07,600
Speaker 3: the SEC our crew had done the SEC for so

834
00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:11,120
Speaker 3: long that they had their restaurants set and then when

835
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:14,440
Speaker 3: it became oh, we're doing the Big ten campus seats

836
00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:18,439
Speaker 3: it's every so Thursday nights, I'm in charge of reservations.

837
00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:21,480
Speaker 3: That's been another change. It's like, oh, you know, we're

838
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:24,480
Speaker 3: going to ann Arbor, where's dinner? And I'm like, I

839
00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:28,279
Speaker 3: got what cuisine are we wanting tonight? Fellas? Yeah, I'm

840
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:33,279
Speaker 3: in charge. And it's honestly one of the best collabs

841
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:35,680
Speaker 3: that I feel like I've been a part of, because

842
00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:39,719
Speaker 3: not only am I excited about going to this restaurant,

843
00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:43,560
Speaker 3: but from campus seats. I've sat down with the head

844
00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:47,120
Speaker 3: chefs and the owners and the weight staff and everyone.

845
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:51,880
Speaker 3: For each episode, we're probably at a restaurant for twelve hours.

846
00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:54,719
Speaker 3: So I know the stories of these restaurants and I

847
00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:56,680
Speaker 3: know the people that are there, so to go back

848
00:41:56,719 --> 00:41:59,960
Speaker 3: and see them it's the best. It makes me so ha.

849
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:03,960
Speaker 1: So where where in the Big ten were you last year?

850
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:06,920
Speaker 1: Where have you been that? I mean, look, give give

851
00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:09,840
Speaker 1: them as much publicity. Being a restaurant owner and operator

852
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:12,839
Speaker 1: is tough in twenty twenty five. So give people one

853
00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:16,960
Speaker 1: road place where you're like, if you're going to you know,

854
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 1: Madison or whatever, this is my this is my.

855
00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:24,200
Speaker 3: Spot, okay here. So there's so many places. I would

856
00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:26,520
Speaker 3: say one of my one of my favorite spots in

857
00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:29,480
Speaker 3: ann Arbor. Have you guys been to Freedom's.

858
00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:33,840
Speaker 1: Yes, that's the Cuban Freedom.

859
00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:39,560
Speaker 3: But Tato, Yeah, a Cuban fusion restaurant. That is one

860
00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:43,360
Speaker 3: of my favorite spots. Like the food there is unbelievable.

861
00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:44,959
Speaker 3: They're constantly churning things out.

862
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:46,439
Speaker 1: It's just wind out the door. Yeah.

863
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:50,160
Speaker 3: Oh, I would crush that right now. There's so many

864
00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:52,759
Speaker 3: good restaurants and the best part too, is now with

865
00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:55,440
Speaker 3: the four universities joining. Last season, we were able to

866
00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:58,120
Speaker 3: do a season five of campuses and really focus in

867
00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:01,719
Speaker 3: on Orgon and go to La and wash and do

868
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:04,120
Speaker 3: all that stuff. So I know we're gonna have a

869
00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:06,759
Speaker 3: lot of West Coast games this year on CBS. That's

870
00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:09,440
Speaker 3: what we're thinking. So I'm excited to check out some

871
00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:10,520
Speaker 3: of those spots too.

872
00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:12,640
Speaker 1: Hot Tip and arbor Ty and I went. There's a

873
00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:17,560
Speaker 1: breakfast sandwich spot downtown called Iggy's and they're just churning

874
00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:21,359
Speaker 1: out breakfast sandwiches and coffee for hungover, like nineteen year

875
00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:25,480
Speaker 1: olds and it is killer. It is great, and they're

876
00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:28,680
Speaker 1: putting hash Browns on sandwiches. It's everything you need from

877
00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:30,200
Speaker 1: like for like a Saturday morning.

878
00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:34,640
Speaker 3: Food. Food is like my love language. I love to eat.

879
00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:37,279
Speaker 3: I love to cook. So when Campus Eats even came

880
00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:39,360
Speaker 3: about and they're like, we're going to do this fusion

881
00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:45,279
Speaker 3: show of sports and food, Hi, yeah, righter, whatever you need,

882
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:46,879
Speaker 3: where do you want to send me? I'm cool, Yep,

883
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:48,760
Speaker 3: let's go. Oh it's best.

884
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:50,960
Speaker 1: I'm going to bring this. By the way, these two

885
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:56,359
Speaker 1: topics together, What do you eat before work? Right? Like

886
00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:58,640
Speaker 1: you don't want to take chances you don't want you

887
00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:01,600
Speaker 1: probably don't want to kill her, like greasy breakfast sandwich

888
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:04,400
Speaker 1: before working for however many hours straight and needing to

889
00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:06,759
Speaker 1: be but like you don't want your blood sugar to

890
00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:09,160
Speaker 1: go like down the toilet. So like, what is the

891
00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:12,799
Speaker 1: move for you? For for Brad Gary? Like what is okay?

892
00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:15,360
Speaker 1: What is you want? Four months calories?

893
00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:17,200
Speaker 3: You want an inside scoop? And I don't even know

894
00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:18,520
Speaker 3: if I'm supposed to really share this.

895
00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:19,800
Speaker 1: But this I'm ready, You're juicing.

896
00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:26,400
Speaker 3: Brad doesn't eat at all before a game at all.

897
00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:31,120
Speaker 1: So if he seems irritable on air, all right, No,

898
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:34,000
Speaker 1: he does not know, I'm saying. If then we now

899
00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:35,880
Speaker 1: have this no.

900
00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:40,200
Speaker 3: Which is typically fine for our three thirty kick, but

901
00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:42,719
Speaker 3: we get primetime games here and there. He will not

902
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:47,839
Speaker 3: eat all day, all day a seven thirty eight pm kick.

903
00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:50,680
Speaker 3: He is not eating a damn thing all day. And

904
00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:54,000
Speaker 3: I'm like trying to force feed him and he will

905
00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:54,560
Speaker 3: not have it.

906
00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:57,480
Speaker 1: He is not a granola bar, nothing, nothing.

907
00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:00,640
Speaker 3: Wow, I don't know how he does it. It my mind.

908
00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:03,240
Speaker 3: I need to eat, I like to eat.

909
00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:05,879
Speaker 1: Is this just stomach fear from him?

910
00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:06,120
Speaker 2: No?

911
00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:08,960
Speaker 3: I don't. I think it's something he started doing forever

912
00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:12,480
Speaker 3: ago and now it's just part of his routine.

913
00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:16,239
Speaker 1: Wow, okay, so you go light so.

914
00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:20,359
Speaker 3: Well, it depends. It depends on the mood. I'm I'm

915
00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:23,040
Speaker 3: a big bagel person. Like I feel like that's always

916
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:27,160
Speaker 3: like a very easy toss me a bagel in the morning.

917
00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:31,400
Speaker 3: We're good to go. Halftime, though, we get food during halftime.

918
00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:34,600
Speaker 3: And sometime, I mean I will crush like once once

919
00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:38,280
Speaker 3: the open and kickoff, and anyone in sports that works

920
00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:42,640
Speaker 3: and on the broadcast knows once you're done with your open,

921
00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:43,919
Speaker 3: then you're like.

922
00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:47,400
Speaker 1: Oh okay.

923
00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:50,600
Speaker 3: So there's times where if it's like a big, a

924
00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:54,640
Speaker 3: big game, a big ten championship, whatever, I'll eat light

925
00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:57,680
Speaker 3: and then I will have food right after the open,

926
00:45:57,719 --> 00:46:00,920
Speaker 3: I will run over to my little area and just

927
00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:03,279
Speaker 3: chow down real quick and then run back out to

928
00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:03,720
Speaker 3: the field.

929
00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:06,839
Speaker 1: I love the possibility of something major happening and they

930
00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:08,759
Speaker 1: cut to you and there's like a burrito in your hand.

931
00:46:09,200 --> 00:46:11,520
Speaker 3: He's like, oh, Brett, real quick, I did throw a

932
00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:14,000
Speaker 3: burrito in someone's face a few years back. I don't

933
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:15,799
Speaker 3: know if you guys remember that one, but no.

934
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:17,520
Speaker 1: What happened? Please elaborate?

935
00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:21,520
Speaker 3: Ohoa, wow, yeah, don't look this up. It was a

936
00:46:21,719 --> 00:46:26,120
Speaker 3: early kick Arkansas game. I was. It was an eleven

937
00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:30,120
Speaker 3: am I think kick off and Eric Musselman was the

938
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:34,279
Speaker 3: basketball coach at Arkansas at the time, and so him

939
00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:39,359
Speaker 3: and his staff they ordered thousands of breakfast burritos for

940
00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:41,279
Speaker 3: the fans because we were trying, you know, try to

941
00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:43,360
Speaker 3: get the fans in nice and early. It's hard to

942
00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:46,719
Speaker 3: get a college kid at eleven am kick right, Yeah,

943
00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:50,160
Speaker 3: So my whole story at the open of the show

944
00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:54,400
Speaker 3: was about how, you know, we're riled up. We're getting

945
00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:58,000
Speaker 3: these fans here. It is a crazy environment. We're chucking

946
00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:02,480
Speaker 3: breakfast burritos out. And then it and I grabbed a

947
00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:05,879
Speaker 3: breakfast burrito and I turned and I went to throw it,

948
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:09,560
Speaker 3: but I was a little hyped up. I don't know

949
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:14,160
Speaker 3: what happened, and I threw it directly into a kid's face.

950
00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:17,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, welcome to the bigs.

951
00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:23,440
Speaker 3: Well, breakfast burrito into this poor child's face. And then

952
00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:24,960
Speaker 3: I didn't know what to do because I was like,

953
00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:27,680
Speaker 3: I just did that on national television. So what a

954
00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:29,719
Speaker 3: sane person would do would be like, let me go

955
00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:33,080
Speaker 3: over and apologize. No, I go and grab another breakfast

956
00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:36,800
Speaker 3: burrito to have to and because I had to redeem myself,

957
00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:38,759
Speaker 3: I did like show the world that I you know,

958
00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:42,040
Speaker 3: I'm married to a former professional baseball player, and I

959
00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 3: just embarrassed myself on national TV. So then I had

960
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:48,120
Speaker 3: a show that I could actually throw. And then I

961
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:50,360
Speaker 3: went and apologized to make sure the kid was okay,

962
00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:52,200
Speaker 3: which he was totally fine. He was like, yeah, I

963
00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:54,280
Speaker 3: mean you just fed me breakfast.

964
00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:56,520
Speaker 1: Did you then report on the injury status of the

965
00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:59,239
Speaker 1: student who is questionable with the burrito to the to

966
00:47:59,280 --> 00:47:59,640
Speaker 1: the dome?

967
00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:02,279
Speaker 3: I didn't realize how big of a deal it was.

968
00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:04,440
Speaker 3: And then my husband messaged me and he was like,

969
00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:07,160
Speaker 3: by the way, it was probably five minutes into the game.

970
00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:08,680
Speaker 3: He's like, by the way, that clip already has a

971
00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:09,279
Speaker 3: million views.

972
00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:12,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, great, welcome to the internet.

973
00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:16,640
Speaker 3: Yay, that's that's terrific.

974
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:19,400
Speaker 1: I missed that or I watched it and seventy million

975
00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:20,839
Speaker 1: things have happened since that all.

976
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:24,120
Speaker 3: You can find it easily.

977
00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:28,400
Speaker 1: Okay, So what would so from a technology standpoint, from

978
00:48:28,520 --> 00:48:32,279
Speaker 1: a football standpoint, from a burrito standpoint, I guess what

979
00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:35,160
Speaker 1: would make your life easier doing your job. We've asked

980
00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:38,480
Speaker 1: this to broadcasters who've talked about like delays getting the

981
00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:42,160
Speaker 1: video to their monitors. What would make like, are you

982
00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:44,440
Speaker 1: looking for the return of who was was it? Booker

983
00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:48,480
Speaker 1: McFarland who had the like riser on Monday night football,

984
00:48:48,719 --> 00:48:51,319
Speaker 1: so he had a better vantage point. What would make

985
00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:52,080
Speaker 1: your life easier?

986
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:57,399
Speaker 3: So this past season I was able In seasons past

987
00:48:57,440 --> 00:48:59,880
Speaker 3: I would have a little setup on each side of

988
00:48:59,880 --> 00:49:02,400
Speaker 3: the field where we'd have like a little desk with

989
00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:05,640
Speaker 3: a tiny monitor that I'd be able to go and

990
00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:09,359
Speaker 3: watch replays. And last season they were able to get

991
00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:12,680
Speaker 3: me a monitor that would travel around the field with me,

992
00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:15,520
Speaker 3: so I have a person a sign to me that

993
00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:18,920
Speaker 3: is their only job is to follow me around with

994
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:23,160
Speaker 3: a monitor, which has been life changing because then for injuries,

995
00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:26,480
Speaker 3: it's huge because now I can go back and be

996
00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:29,399
Speaker 3: trying to find this kid, this player on the sideline.

997
00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:31,200
Speaker 3: I can go back and look and say, okay, well

998
00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:34,480
Speaker 3: it looks like it was his right ankle. Because injury happens,

999
00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:35,880
Speaker 3: you might be on the other side of the field,

1000
00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:39,240
Speaker 3: you are sprinting, I mean full on sprint to wherever

1001
00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:41,640
Speaker 3: their injury tent is. You're keeping your eyes on the

1002
00:49:41,640 --> 00:49:43,799
Speaker 3: field to see what you can see. But again, like

1003
00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:47,320
Speaker 3: I'm a little person, and these players are quite large

1004
00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:50,120
Speaker 3: with lots of pads on, so you can only see

1005
00:49:50,200 --> 00:49:52,839
Speaker 3: so much. So to have that monitor there has been

1006
00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:55,719
Speaker 3: a game changer for me. And just to be able

1007
00:49:55,760 --> 00:49:58,120
Speaker 3: to recall certain things or if there's a certain stat

1008
00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:02,759
Speaker 3: that you're curious about during commercial break, they're able to

1009
00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:05,960
Speaker 3: put it on my return screen, so I'm able to know,

1010
00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:08,080
Speaker 3: you know, okay, well this is what's going on, and

1011
00:50:08,280 --> 00:50:10,200
Speaker 3: we got to get the running game going, whatever whatever

1012
00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:12,640
Speaker 3: it might be, to help formulat a question for a

1013
00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:15,839
Speaker 3: halftime interview, whatever whatever it might be. It has been

1014
00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:19,239
Speaker 3: so helpful. So I'm excited and hoping that we get

1015
00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:20,040
Speaker 3: that back this season.

1016
00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:24,160
Speaker 1: I'm wondering what you're able to see and pick up

1017
00:50:24,160 --> 00:50:26,799
Speaker 1: on on the sideline, not even injury wise, that it's

1018
00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:29,440
Speaker 1: just going to be impossible to pick up watching this

1019
00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:32,720
Speaker 1: from somebody's couch, Like how do you pick up vibes?

1020
00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:36,080
Speaker 1: Like how do you like look at a sideline, look

1021
00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:39,600
Speaker 1: at a coaching staff and say there's a nervous energy here.

1022
00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:42,560
Speaker 3: Oh you can tell Okay.

1023
00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:44,400
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm a very stupid person.

1024
00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:47,280
Speaker 3: No you're not. You're not. So if you're walking past

1025
00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:50,800
Speaker 3: and again we're not supposed to stand right behind the benches,

1026
00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:53,440
Speaker 3: so it has to be a stroll. We're strolling past.

1027
00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:55,960
Speaker 3: I'm not looking at anything. I'm not listening to it.

1028
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:58,319
Speaker 3: You're listening and you're watching everything that's going on.

1029
00:50:58,560 --> 00:51:02,280
Speaker 1: Right. But it is a subjective thing, right, like connective.

1030
00:51:02,320 --> 00:51:04,799
Speaker 3: But you can you can tell the vibe of a

1031
00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:09,759
Speaker 3: group without question, whether it's you know, coaches being extra animated,

1032
00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:12,319
Speaker 3: you know, if they're yelling at the guys, or if

1033
00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:16,120
Speaker 3: they're like, hell, yeah, we're cooking ass right now. You

1034
00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:19,400
Speaker 3: can tell if there's a difference of like a there

1035
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:21,640
Speaker 3: and you know there's certain words that you're not allowed

1036
00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:25,360
Speaker 3: to tell and say on television, but there's there's a

1037
00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:28,279
Speaker 3: clear energy, or if it's just dead. You know, there's

1038
00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:30,600
Speaker 3: been so many games where I'm like, what are these

1039
00:51:30,600 --> 00:51:32,399
Speaker 3: guys doing? Just wake up?

1040
00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:35,560
Speaker 4: You're getting the game, someone gets fired up. Where's the

1041
00:51:35,640 --> 00:51:38,160
Speaker 4: veteran leadership that needs to get these guys moving like

1042
00:51:38,280 --> 00:51:42,040
Speaker 4: you You can feel that on the sideline one or

1043
00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:45,200
Speaker 4: if the places is rocking and you have one hundred

1044
00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:47,640
Speaker 4: thousand fans screaming and the players are jumping up and down,

1045
00:51:47,680 --> 00:51:51,319
Speaker 4: you know, the vibe of the team. You would be

1046
00:51:51,320 --> 00:51:51,960
Speaker 4: able to tell.

1047
00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:54,600
Speaker 1: Too, I hope, So I'm I don't know. My brain

1048
00:51:54,640 --> 00:51:57,120
Speaker 1: isn't what it used to be. I saw have the segues,

1049
00:51:57,120 --> 00:51:58,480
Speaker 1: I saw the transitions time.

1050
00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:02,120
Speaker 2: Still got that. So got that, Jenny. We'll get you

1051
00:52:02,120 --> 00:52:05,240
Speaker 2: out of here on this. It is a notable season

1052
00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:11,400
Speaker 2: in the broadcast booth for Gary Danielson. So I don't

1053
00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:13,680
Speaker 2: want you to be in the position where you're giving

1054
00:52:13,719 --> 00:52:17,960
Speaker 2: away the game. But all I'm gonna ask is are

1055
00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:23,200
Speaker 2: their plans to either surprise him, catch him off guard,

1056
00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:26,680
Speaker 2: slash celebrate before he exits.

1057
00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:31,320
Speaker 3: It's funny you asked that. We went on a production

1058
00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:36,240
Speaker 3: call yesterday, just the five of us, Brad, Gary, myself, producer, director,

1059
00:52:36,840 --> 00:52:41,000
Speaker 3: and Gary made it very clear, I do not want

1060
00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:45,319
Speaker 3: this season to be a whole parade about how this

1061
00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:47,600
Speaker 3: is my final year. That is not what this is about.

1062
00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:51,960
Speaker 3: And we all said, well, Gary, we're going to have

1063
00:52:52,080 --> 00:52:56,080
Speaker 3: to do something, sure, and he said, if you have

1064
00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:58,279
Speaker 3: to do something, you have to do something. I do

1065
00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:01,040
Speaker 3: not want it to be in every game situation. So,

1066
00:53:01,239 --> 00:53:04,120
Speaker 3: without giving anything away, there are a few things in

1067
00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:08,640
Speaker 3: the works. He deserves to be celebrated. He is just

1068
00:53:08,840 --> 00:53:11,919
Speaker 3: incredible at what he does, and he cares so much,

1069
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:15,879
Speaker 3: not only about the broadcast, but about our team, and

1070
00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:18,720
Speaker 3: we are going to make sure that he feels very loved.

1071
00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:21,799
Speaker 3: But he has made it very clear he does not

1072
00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:23,160
Speaker 3: want this season to be about him.

1073
00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:26,080
Speaker 1: I like that. I like that he took the attitude like,

1074
00:53:26,200 --> 00:53:27,200
Speaker 1: if you must.

1075
00:53:27,080 --> 00:53:29,200
Speaker 3: Celebrate, see those we're going to.

1076
00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:32,000
Speaker 1: Right here are some promo photos that I think really

1077
00:53:32,040 --> 00:53:33,520
Speaker 1: show me off really well.

1078
00:53:33,640 --> 00:53:35,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, like he needs to do what Keith Jackson did

1079
00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:37,879
Speaker 2: back in the day on the retirement tour, where every

1080
00:53:37,880 --> 00:53:39,799
Speaker 2: place he went somebody gave him a gift and then

1081
00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:41,960
Speaker 2: Keith Jackson I think, came out of retirement after all

1082
00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:45,600
Speaker 2: that a second, but you know, I mean, at least

1083
00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:46,799
Speaker 2: get your money's worth out of this.

1084
00:53:47,280 --> 00:53:49,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, he is not that person. He does not want

1085
00:53:49,960 --> 00:53:53,480
Speaker 3: it to be all about him. And it's so just

1086
00:53:53,840 --> 00:53:56,480
Speaker 3: a quick side note. We had our college football seminar

1087
00:53:56,960 --> 00:54:00,400
Speaker 3: probably two weeks ago at CBS, and if you're in

1088
00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:04,080
Speaker 3: New York, you go. You know, everyone goes to the seminar.

1089
00:54:04,120 --> 00:54:06,600
Speaker 3: If not, you zoom in. So there was a question

1090
00:54:06,640 --> 00:54:08,960
Speaker 3: should we all go to the seminar and CBS was like, no,

1091
00:54:09,040 --> 00:54:13,840
Speaker 3: you guys can just zoom in from wherever you are perfect. Well,

1092
00:54:14,120 --> 00:54:16,799
Speaker 3: we wanted to do something special for Gary, so they

1093
00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:20,439
Speaker 3: put together this incredible presentation just to honor him, and

1094
00:54:21,680 --> 00:54:26,600
Speaker 3: we had Vern came on, Ali LaForce, Jamie art All,

1095
00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:29,360
Speaker 3: Tracy Wolfson, all of his former partners just you know,

1096
00:54:29,400 --> 00:54:31,520
Speaker 3: said a few nice things. Brad and I spoke. I

1097
00:54:31,640 --> 00:54:37,000
Speaker 3: was an emotional mess, and Gary surprised everyone. He had

1098
00:54:37,040 --> 00:54:40,239
Speaker 3: flown to New York and didn't tell any of us

1099
00:54:40,360 --> 00:54:43,279
Speaker 3: because He's like, I didn't want you and Brad to

1100
00:54:43,280 --> 00:54:44,759
Speaker 3: feel like you had to come into New York. And

1101
00:54:44,760 --> 00:54:46,480
Speaker 3: we're like, of course we would have come into New York,

1102
00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:48,160
Speaker 3: but that's just very much him. He was like, I

1103
00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:49,960
Speaker 3: felt like I should be here, but I didn't want

1104
00:54:49,960 --> 00:54:51,560
Speaker 3: to make anyone else have to be there. I'm like,

1105
00:54:51,960 --> 00:54:55,120
Speaker 3: you're ridiculous. He is one of a kind. He's one

1106
00:54:55,120 --> 00:54:57,440
Speaker 3: of a kind, and he will be celebrated awesome.

1107
00:54:57,480 --> 00:54:59,880
Speaker 2: Her name is Jenny Dell, the lead college football reporter

1108
00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:03,320

1109
00:55:03,360 --> 00:55:06,800

1110
00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:09,319
Speaker 2: that you are hoping to get to, or even if

1111
00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:12,040
Speaker 2: it's somewhere you've been before, you're excited.

1112
00:55:11,680 --> 00:55:12,160
Speaker 1: To go back.

1113
00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:16,160
Speaker 3: I am hoping to get to Madison, Wisconsin. Nice very

1114
00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:18,680
Speaker 3: special place to me for many reasons. My daughter is

1115
00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:23,760
Speaker 3: named Madison after Madison, Wisconsin. For it's a long story.

1116
00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:28,880
Speaker 3: It goes back to campus eats. I love Madison and

1117
00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:31,520
Speaker 3: I just want to do jump around nice.

1118
00:55:31,600 --> 00:55:36,480
Speaker 1: It is fun. He's done it. It's great. Uh, Madison

1119
00:55:36,560 --> 00:55:38,839
Speaker 1: is an all time place. It's better naming your kid

1120
00:55:38,880 --> 00:55:43,359
Speaker 1: Madison's better than like cheese curd. So thanks, Yeah, I

1121
00:55:43,360 --> 00:55:48,840
Speaker 1: think you failed it. Awesome. I'm that note. I'm that note. Jenny.

Speaker 3: All right, thank you, love to come back. Thanks guys.

1126
00:55:56,920 --> 00:55:58,000
Speaker 1: All right, Dan, there we go.

1127
00:55:58,200 --> 00:56:03,879
Speaker 2: Jenny Dell, lead college ball reporter for CBS Sports, gave

1128
00:56:03,960 --> 00:56:08,080
Speaker 2: us some awesome anecdotes there. The comment about brad Nessler

1129
00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:11,440
Speaker 2: not eating is going to be bronzed and hung somewhere

1130
00:56:11,440 --> 00:56:12,120
Speaker 2: in this studio.

1131
00:56:12,160 --> 00:56:16,399
Speaker 1: That's marvelous. Mark, I kind of get it. If you're

1132
00:56:16,440 --> 00:56:19,439
Speaker 1: going on network TV, you got to speak for three

1133
00:56:19,480 --> 00:56:23,520
Speaker 1: to four hours. You have to have excitement and energy.

1134
00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:26,319
Speaker 1: You'd like to have your blood sugar maybe accounted for

1135
00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:30,520
Speaker 1: a little bit more than zero calories, but also the

1136
00:56:30,640 --> 00:56:35,120
Speaker 1: risk involved in eating the wrong thing I get trying

1137
00:56:35,160 --> 00:56:38,520
Speaker 1: to play it safe. I just wonder if after the

1138
00:56:38,560 --> 00:56:40,839
Speaker 1: game ends and he signs off and thanks the crew

1139
00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:43,520
Speaker 1: and like once again it's ohio say blah blah that

1140
00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:46,000
Speaker 1: you know they sign off, it goes to like the

1141
00:56:46,239 --> 00:56:50,200
Speaker 1: whatever drug commercial and he's just wrapped in foil like

1142
00:56:50,239 --> 00:56:53,000
Speaker 1: a marathon or and handed a meatball sub. All right,

1143
00:56:53,040 --> 00:56:58,840
Speaker 1: Brad needs a sandwich. We're losing. Brad like he's James

1144
00:56:58,880 --> 00:57:02,919
Speaker 1: Brown coming off stage after giving it his all. Needs

1145
00:57:02,920 --> 00:57:06,680
Speaker 1: an IVY B twelve shot. I hope for that's in

1146
00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:11,160
Speaker 1: my visual than my brain that like, okay, get him going,

1147
00:57:11,200 --> 00:57:13,160
Speaker 1: get him going, all right, good job, Brat, you did

1148
00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:16,480
Speaker 1: it again, I hope. So that's all. Oh my god,

1149
00:57:17,120 --> 00:57:21,000
Speaker 1: night kick. That's brutal. Three and a half hours of

1150
00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:26,760
Speaker 1: broadcasting on nothing. That's man, it's a lot. Good for him.

1151
00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:30,040
Speaker 2: He's a pros pro. I mean, he's guy's a legend. Yeah,

1152
00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:33,439
Speaker 2: guy needs a turkeyleg. Who's got Prince Turkey leg?

1153
00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:36,600
Speaker 1: Yeah? It's great.

1154
00:57:37,160 --> 00:57:39,920
Speaker 2: That was awesome anyway, big thanks to Jenny for stopping

1155
00:57:39,960 --> 00:57:42,160
Speaker 2: on by here, giving us so much of her time,

1156
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:45,040
Speaker 2: we'll have to bring her on again sometimes. See that

1157
00:57:45,080 --> 00:57:46,120
Speaker 2: was great, really enjoy it.

1158
00:57:46,560 --> 00:57:48,240
Speaker 1: I meant to ask if she'd ever and we'll have her.

1159
00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:51,240
Speaker 1: I we'll ask next time if she's ever been wrecked

1160
00:57:51,360 --> 00:57:56,240
Speaker 1: by like a receiver sprinting out of bounds like I

1161
00:57:56,240 --> 00:57:58,400
Speaker 1: think it's sort of a rite of passage for media

1162
00:57:58,440 --> 00:58:01,440
Speaker 1: people working on the sideline. But next time, oh.

1163
00:58:01,320 --> 00:58:05,560
Speaker 2: Well, next time, next time. Indeed, big thanks again for

1164
00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:09,960
Speaker 2: her time. One final note here, Dan, before we let

1165
00:58:09,960 --> 00:58:12,360
Speaker 2: the fine people go. If that's okay with you, are.

1166
00:58:12,280 --> 00:58:15,520
Speaker 1: We done talking football for the congratulations Skippy. You've got mail.

1167
00:58:15,720 --> 00:58:17,880
Speaker 1: You've got mail on the Solid Verbal.

1168
00:58:19,520 --> 00:58:21,360
Speaker 2: You know. We get emails all the time at solid

1169
00:58:21,440 --> 00:58:24,600
Speaker 2: verbal at gmail dot com. Of course, some are better

1170
00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:28,320
Speaker 2: than others, some are more preposterous than others. We got

1171
00:58:28,320 --> 00:58:31,600
Speaker 2: one here that came in You and I were both

1172
00:58:31,640 --> 00:58:35,520
Speaker 2: sending it back and forth. This might be the best

1173
00:58:35,520 --> 00:58:40,760
Speaker 2: email we've ever gotten. It's up there, Hi, Solid Verbal.

1174
00:58:42,160 --> 00:58:46,160
Speaker 2: I hope this message finds you in good health. I'm

1175
00:58:46,240 --> 00:58:49,320
Speaker 2: Frank Imoff. Definitely not a real name.

1176
00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:51,919
Speaker 1: I know it im Hoff. You don't know a m Hoff.

1177
00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:52,600
Speaker 1: I know it m Hoff.

1178
00:58:53,360 --> 00:58:58,600
Speaker 2: The attorney managing the estate of the late Richard Verbal

1179
00:59:01,640 --> 00:59:05,560
Speaker 2: Solid Comma, I was able to trace you through a

1180
00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:09,840
Speaker 2: family tree leads. I love that that's not English as

1181
00:59:09,920 --> 00:59:15,080
Speaker 2: the sole inheritor to the Richard Verbal estate. Yeah, please

1182
00:59:15,160 --> 00:59:18,880
Speaker 2: contact me so we can schedule a time to talk.

1183
00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:23,320
Speaker 2: I have many questions about the late great Richard Verbal

1184
00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:26,320
Speaker 2: that perhaps we should reach back out to this gentleman

1185
00:59:27,000 --> 00:59:28,440
Speaker 2: and see what he has to say.

1186
00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:30,000
Speaker 1: I think we have to hear him out. You know,

1187
00:59:30,040 --> 00:59:31,600
Speaker 1: you don't want to leave money on the table, tie.

1188
00:59:31,600 --> 00:59:31,760
Speaker 2: You know.

1189
00:59:31,840 --> 00:59:34,040
Speaker 1: The thing is about Richard Verbal as he founded rivals

1190
00:59:34,080 --> 00:59:39,920
Speaker 1: dot com and is that an alias for Shannon Terry?

1191
00:59:40,320 --> 00:59:42,800
Speaker 1: I guess, so does Sanitary Rivals scout one of those?

1192
00:59:42,920 --> 00:59:44,720
Speaker 1: I think all of them. Yeah, he's all of them.

1193
00:59:45,960 --> 00:59:49,240
Speaker 1: He is the founder rivals dot com Richard Verbal and

1194
00:59:49,280 --> 00:59:52,800
Speaker 1: then named particular elements of the site with his last

1195
00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:56,560
Speaker 1: name so solid like the McRib right, that everything has

1196
00:59:56,600 --> 01:00:01,320
Speaker 1: that McDonald's flavor, the micflavor. So it's obviously sad to

1197
01:00:01,360 --> 01:00:04,800
Speaker 1: hear he passed so influential on everything we do, sure

1198
01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:10,280
Speaker 1: and eager to see if we were fortunate enough to

1199
01:00:10,280 --> 01:00:13,880
Speaker 1: be named in his will and testament. So I'm going

1200
01:00:13,960 --> 01:00:15,640
Speaker 1: to have to respond to this afterwards.

1201
01:00:15,840 --> 01:00:18,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going after we get off here, I'm going

1202
01:00:18,040 --> 01:00:19,800
Speaker 2: to respond and say, hey, what more can you tell

1203
01:00:19,880 --> 01:00:23,120
Speaker 2: us about the state of Richard verbal? This is a chapter.

1204
01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:26,760
Speaker 2: This is only the intro chapter to what could be

1205
01:00:26,880 --> 01:00:30,600
Speaker 2: a great series of bits on this episode and many episodes.

1206
01:00:30,720 --> 01:00:34,280
Speaker 2: So yeah, I would encourage the verballer hood out there

1207
01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:36,800
Speaker 2: to weigh in Solid Verbal at gmail dot com.

1208
01:00:36,840 --> 01:00:40,760
Speaker 1: And if we have any family law attorneys listening right now,

1209
01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:44,320
Speaker 1: how we should proceed how, yeah, absolutely, how we should perceive.

1210
01:00:44,360 --> 01:00:47,240
Speaker 2: What I was going to say is if people out

1211
01:00:47,240 --> 01:00:50,480
Speaker 2: there have any ideas how we can incorporate the late

1212
01:00:50,520 --> 01:00:53,200
Speaker 2: great Richard Verbal into the content of the show. I

1213
01:00:53,320 --> 01:00:56,439
Speaker 2: was thinking, if we had any really bad takes that

1214
01:00:56,600 --> 01:00:58,960
Speaker 2: sort of die and go to heaven. Oh, we have

1215
01:00:59,040 --> 01:01:01,280
Speaker 2: teams at some point that we just think are done.

1216
01:01:01,320 --> 01:01:03,400
Speaker 2: So if we have coaches that are done, so after

1217
01:01:03,440 --> 01:01:05,880
Speaker 2: a couple of weeks, all of them can go into

1218
01:01:05,880 --> 01:01:09,520
Speaker 2: the great college football beyond. With Richard Verbal, well, and

1219
01:01:09,560 --> 01:01:11,960
Speaker 2: you hope that at least on his deathbed he patched

1220
01:01:11,960 --> 01:01:17,000
Speaker 2: things up with Barry Solid and it was you know,

1221
01:01:17,040 --> 01:01:19,360
Speaker 2: like when Michael Scott met I don't know if it's

1222
01:01:19,400 --> 01:01:21,440
Speaker 2: done to her or Mifflin. The picture of him coming

1223
01:01:21,480 --> 01:01:25,000
Speaker 2: back to Scratton that you know they were able to

1224
01:01:25,320 --> 01:01:28,640
Speaker 2: the accord was able to happen before it was too late.

1225
01:01:28,840 --> 01:01:32,520
Speaker 2: So you know, we named the show after one of

1226
01:01:32,560 --> 01:01:35,000
Speaker 2: the most successful partnerships in college football media history, and

1227
01:01:35,040 --> 01:01:36,000
Speaker 2: so you like to see.

1228
01:01:35,840 --> 01:01:38,000
Speaker 1: It work out. I was sent, by the way, this

1229
01:01:38,120 --> 01:01:42,440
Speaker 1: is my final thought. I was sent. I had no idea.

1230
01:01:43,680 --> 01:01:47,960
Speaker 1: There is an author, a writer, and a professor or

1231
