16
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 2: Seaton Poll question for hour two is going to be

17
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 2: what the Dodgers with a win earlier this morning? Yes,

18
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,959
Speaker 2: it does count. It was opening day they beat the

19
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:03,440
Speaker 2: Padres five to two in Seoul's, South Korea.

20
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:06,039
Speaker 4: We got two going right now, Dan, If Caleb Williams

21
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 4: were to force his way out of Chicago would be

22
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 4: a great idea, an absolute disaster. Right now, seventy two

23
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:12,399
Speaker 4: percent of the audience that it would be an absolute disaster.

24
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,319
Speaker 4: And we also put up there a question you post earlier.

25
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,679
Speaker 4: Who has more pressure on them, shoe hey Otani or

26
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:21,400
Speaker 4: the Dodgers right now the Dodgers eighty percentge yes that

27
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 4: even close, they have to win the World Series.

28
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 2: Shoeyotani can hit thirty four home runs and he'll survive.

29
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 2: Dodgers got to win college basketball. The point spreads tonight

30
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 2: according to DraftKings, Colorado is favored by two and a

31
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 2: half against Boise State. Montana State favored by four against Grambling.

32
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 2: Last night we saw reasonable facsimile to basketball, with Virginia

33
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 2: losing to Colorado State by twenty five. Shouldn't have been

34
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 2: in the tournament to begin with, and they proved that

35
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 2: last night. Also Wagner first ever NCAA tournament victory as

36
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 2: they held off off Howard. Uh So, we have a

37
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 2: few things to go over. Get to Matt Norlander will

Speaker 2: say good morning to our radio affiliates around the country.

44
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 2: A little bit of football news. Mike Williams going from

45
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 2: the Chargers to the Jets, signing a one year deal.

46
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:35,360
Speaker 2: Mike Williams dot dot dot when healthy is going is

47
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,359
Speaker 2: always a good wide receiver. Now you may suffer from

48
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 2: the wait, what Mike Williams are you? Feels like, you know,

49
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 2: if his name was different, if it was like Bubba Williams,

50
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 2: we'd be like Bubba Williams can play a little bit there.

51
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 2: But Mike Williams dot dot dot went healthy, should be

52
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 2: able to help Aaron Rodgers dot dot dot went healthy.

53
00:02:58,200 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 3: Yes, poem.

54
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 5: As we all know, this is the Clemson tall rangy

55
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 5: wide receiver Mike Williams, not the former tall rangeye USC

56
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 5: star wide receiver Mike Williams who was very good back

57
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,079
Speaker 5: in the day but also kind of didn't pan out

58
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 5: completely as we thought he No.

59
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 2: He did not very good player at times. Yes, went healthy. Uh,

60
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 2: let's see any other football news here.

61
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 3: College football.

62
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 2: There's something going on here with the ACC that you know,

63
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 2: we need to keep an eye on with Florida State

64
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 2: and also Clemson and now kind of they're suing the

65
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 2: conference to get out of the conference. And I don't

66
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,119
Speaker 2: understand this. If I'm Clemson, I would want to stay

67
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 2: in the ACC because you know that you're getting automatic bids.

68
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 2: If you go to the Big Ten or SEC, the

69
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 2: school may make more money, but you're guaranteed of making

70
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 2: a lot of money and being in the playoffs pretty

71
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 2: much every year. If Clemson is able to maintain what

72
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 2: Clemson normally does, I would stay in the ACC. But

73
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 2: it feels like Florida State and Clemson want out of

74
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 2: the ACC. Then what happens? You still get automatic bids there.

75
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 2: I guess they finalized the TV deal. The playoffs, you

76
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 2: know what we're gonna have here this year coming up

77
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 2: and then in two years expanding to fourteen. So college

78
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 2: football is still in a state of flux. Matt Norlander

79
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 2: covers college basketball. He's got his CBS I on College

80
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 2: Basketball podcast. Senior writer for CBS Sports, Matt, good to

81
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 2: have you back again. Virginia a no show. There are

82
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 2: a lot of people said Virginia never should have been

83
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,280
Speaker 2: in there. Why were they in there? To begin with?

84
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,600
Speaker 6: That is the most unanswerable question heading into this tournament. Dan,

85
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 6: it's a pleasure to join you. By the way, thank

86
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,839
Speaker 6: you so much for having me on. Virginia did not have,

87
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 6: in my opinion, the resume to validate inclusion, and I

88
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 6: want to be in particular about this. We talked about

89
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 6: this on the CBS podcast. Normally, I think it's actually

90
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:02,480
Speaker 6: a very slippery sope to judge turn performance to validate

91
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,360
Speaker 6: or negate opinions going in. It's a one game sample size,

92
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 6: it's not representative of thirty thirty one games. I think

93
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 6: it's a lazy thing to do. However, I said going

94
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 6: into the game on Tuesday, Virginia had no business in

95
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,559
Speaker 6: the field. I would have put Saint John's or Indiana

96
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 6: State in the field, and having such a poor performance

97
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,840
Speaker 6: on a big stage only reinforced that. And this was

98
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 6: a I mean, let me be clear about this. I'm

99
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 6: so psyched for this tournament. I cannot wait for Thursday

100
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:29,719
Speaker 6: to get going. We'll have probably some good games tonight,

101
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 6: so we're well past the lamenting about who did or

102
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 6: didn't get in. But this year the committee, unfortunately, after

103
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,360
Speaker 6: having a couple of good years, they had some pretty

104
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 6: brutal misseedings and for whatever reason, maybe it's because the

105
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 6: bubble cut line was higher than normal.

106
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 7: I think the process failed them.

107
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,479
Speaker 6: It's not a crime against humanity that Virginia was in

108
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,040
Speaker 6: the field, but now it has not won a tournament game. Oh,

109
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 6: by the way, since Tony Bennett and the Cavs cut

110
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 6: down the nets in twenty nineteen at Minneapolis. They have

111
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 6: gone over since famously last year, obviously losing at the

112
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:56,839
Speaker 6: buzzer to furnament.

113
00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:59,799
Speaker 3: Most vulnerable number one seed is who.

114
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 6: Carolina. Carolina is in the weakest region. Carolina is in

115
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 6: the West. It's a good question, Dan, but I think

116
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 6: that U n C because it hasn't rased like statistically,

117
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 6: UNC has not rated as well all season as you.

118
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 6: Definitely not Yukon, definitely not Houston. And Purdue produce under

119
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 6: the most pressure of any team. Uh and actually Purdue

120
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 6: might have to have Utah State in the second round,

121
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 6: a twenty six win UTAs eight team coached by Danny

122
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:33,159
Speaker 6: Sprinkle like legit, legit team. But Carolina to me, although

123
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 6: its defense is better, I think it is the weakest

124
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 6: of the four, and therefore it is the most vulnerable

125
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,360
Speaker 6: of the one seeds, and for your audience, just keep

126
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,159
Speaker 6: this in mind as you're doing your as you're doing

127
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 6: your bracket stuff. Okay, were we are going to have

128
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 6: either ones or twos lose in the first weekend?

129
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:52,359
Speaker 7: It is. It is going to happen.

130
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 6: It happens almost every single year, and I know it's

131
00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 6: hard to pick against it, but we just had it

132
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,600
Speaker 6: last year. Here's the stat. Only two times in the

133
00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 6: past twenty six tournaments DAN have all four to two

134
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 6: seeds made the Sweet sixteen. Okay, so pick at least

135
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 6: one two to lose. Early last year Marquette and Arizona

136
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 6: both went down, but it almost always always happens. I

137
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 6: think Iowa State is vulnerable, and I think Market's vulnerable

138
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 6: on the two line, and I think unc Is is

139
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 6: the shakiest one.

140
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 2: I came up with a solution. I know we're going

141
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 2: to expand the tournament. The question is not if, but

142
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:30,200
Speaker 2: when you got sixty eight, this is what I'm suggesting

143
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:35,679
Speaker 2: that you expand to eighty. That gives you all four

144
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 2: regions a first four, so you have four to twenty

145
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 2: team regions. The first fours could take place at the

146
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 2: one of the venues where the Thursday Saturday, Friday, Sunday

147
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,560
Speaker 2: games will occur, so let's travel easier for fans to

148
00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 2: travel to one place, more flexibility regarding the timing and

149
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 2: the rest of the teams involved. If you go seventy

150
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 2: two or seventy six, that still leaves two regions uneven

151
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 2: in terms of fairness.

152
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 3: I guess.

153
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:07,680
Speaker 2: So if you're going to expand from sixty eight, I

154
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 2: would go to eighty and I think the math works out.

155
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 2: What do you think?

156
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, I absolutely hate it. So a couple things. One,

157
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 6: I'm a listener to the show, Love listen to the

158
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 6: pod during workouts. I thought what Shashevsky said last week

159
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,679
Speaker 6: was terrific. I'm gonna give you a little bit of intel,

160
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 6: and then some reporting. I have been tracking this story

161
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,679
Speaker 6: for as long as it's been topic, I guess, and

162
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 6: I think that expansion is very much on the table,

163
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,800
Speaker 6: and I would lean more likely than not. But I

164
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 6: will just tell you I've talked with some of the

165
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 6: most important people involved in these decisions, and it is

166
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 6: there is pushback to this idea. And when Shrzhevsky came

167
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 6: on your show and said we should not even be

168
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 6: talking about this because we don't even know the environment

169
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:54,440
Speaker 6: we're going to be in in five years. He is

170
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 6: one hundred percent on the money. Okay, we don't know

171
00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 6: what the media environment or the television environment will be

172
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:03,080
Speaker 6: when this current contract runs out and the contract I

173
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 6: work for CBSCBS and Turner have the contract. They're not

174
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,960
Speaker 6: going to just willingly. They have the best deal in sports.

175
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 6: This is a great deal on the television side. They're

176
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:13,320
Speaker 6: not going to just break this. So if they want

177
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,840
Speaker 6: to expand it, also keep this in mind. If you

178
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 6: expand the men's tournament, you will have to expand the

179
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 6: women's tournament as well. There are so many logistical things

180
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 6: that go into it. Aighty, I understand what you're saying.

181
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,679
Speaker 6: This should be hard to get into. We just had confidence.

182
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 2: I'm not in favor of expand Yeah, Matt, I'm giving

183
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 2: you it's going to happen, and if it does, this

184
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 2: is my solution. Would I wouldn't have expanded it to

185
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 2: sixty eight to beg.

186
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 6: I agree, we're about to hit what I call the

187
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 6: Goldilock zone at about midnight tonight, where we have sixty

188
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 6: four teams in the tournament.

189
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:45,840
Speaker 7: It is perfect.

190
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 6: Okay, we live in that until about twelve fifteen on Thursday,

191
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 6: when the first game Mississippi State Michigan State will tip

192
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 6: off on CBS. That's the Goldilock Zone. I love living

193
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 6: in that because that is the bracket as it should be,

194
00:09:56,160 --> 00:10:00,280
Speaker 6: and it's perfect state. There are people in college sports.

195
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,960
Speaker 6: I talked to a conference commissioner of note a week

196
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:05,440
Speaker 6: ago does not want to expand the tournament. Is in

197
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 6: those conversations. Don't if it ain't broke, don't break. It

198
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,679
Speaker 6: was that commissioner's words to me. I really hope it

199
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 6: doesn't expand. Here's the thing. I don't know if you'll

200
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 6: find one thing in all of American sports where the

201
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 6: majority of American sports fans are on the same side

202
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 6: than this issue. Almost nobody wants to expand the tournament.

203
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 6: The only people that do are coaches that want to

204
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 6: increase their job security, which they won't because then, as

205
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:26,960
Speaker 6: you've said before, if you don't make the tournament, you

206
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:27,679
Speaker 6: should be fired.

207
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:28,440
Speaker 7: Yes, okay.

208
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 6: And the conference commissioners that are trying to get more money,

209
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 6: you can rearrange those kind of deals.

210
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,160
Speaker 7: There is no reason to expand the NCAA tournament. It

211
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 7: will not.

212
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,320
Speaker 6: There has not been a single person who has been

213
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 6: able to give me a viable reason why the tournament

214
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,440
Speaker 6: and the sport would be bettered by having even a

215
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,800
Speaker 6: sixty ninth team into it. One example of this that

216
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 6: I'll give you a why it shouldn't expand take your

217
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 6: show for example. You got to cover the sport nationally,

218
00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 6: do a great job of doing it. Dan, You almost

219
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 6: never bring up college basket in November December, and nor

220
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:02,320
Speaker 6: should you for a national show.

221
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 7: You think the.

222
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,839
Speaker 6: Sport will add any more relevance if there are eighty

223
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 6: teams getting into this thing. No, you need to make

224
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 6: November and December as urgent as possible by encouraging the

225
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,080
Speaker 6: high majors to play each other so that those games

226
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 6: carry significance. And it actually gets to a point where

227
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 6: it's like, whoa with Saint John's going to get into

228
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 6: the field?

229
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:20,880
Speaker 7: Is Seaton Hall going to get into the field? Will

230
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:21,840
Speaker 7: Indiana State make it?

231
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 6: There is an urgency attention to this sport over the

232
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 6: past previous week because they're sixty eight. It's not too big,

233
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 6: it's not too small, it's just right. I hope they

234
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,079
Speaker 6: don't expand it, and I do anticipate in talking to

235
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,480
Speaker 6: sources that we will have clarity on a timeline on

236
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 6: this this year. At some point, whether it's the spring, summer,

237
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,240
Speaker 6: or fall, we will know where the direction that this

238
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 6: is going.

239
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 3: I love you.

240
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,520
Speaker 2: Fired up Matt Norlanders, CBS Sports senior writer and his

241
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:50,640
Speaker 2: podcast CBSI on college basketball. All right, you had a

242
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:55,160
Speaker 2: piece yesterday on college coaches and their favorite bands or

243
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:59,559
Speaker 2: their artists. Here, Yeah, run through some that might surprise us.

244
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:01,839
Speaker 6: Oh man, So I was fired up on the on

245
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 6: the tournament stuff. This was a joy, I mean an

246
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:09,120
Speaker 6: absolute joy. Some of my favorites that were just surprising

247
00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 6: to me. Kyle Smith of Washington State giving me Digital Underground.

248
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,000
Speaker 6: It was that is the one getting the most street credit.

249
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,199
Speaker 6: Will Wade, Will Wade to have Bill self tossing me

250
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 6: earth wind and Fire. Bucky McMillan, he coaches Samford. They're

251
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 6: going to play Kansas. He's forty years old, hasn't moved

252
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,679
Speaker 6: out of the city of Birmingham's entire life gives me.

253
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 6: Sam Cook said he was an old soul. Just I

254
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 6: couldn't believe it. Now I will say, I put this

255
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,720
Speaker 6: out and the response has been incredible. Uh, Hubert Davis

256
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,319
Speaker 6: is getting dragged because no one believes that he listens

257
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,840
Speaker 6: to a Little Dirk. And I'm here just to report that.

258
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 6: There were a couple coaches that they gave me their answers.

259
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:48,959
Speaker 6: Hubert Davis was one of them. John Kyler Perry gave

260
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 6: me Drake. I pushed back on it. Now Cayle told

261
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 6: me he does not listen to music at all, so

262
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,120
Speaker 6: he's just using Drake because Drake, you know, shows up

263
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 6: to Kentucky sitting in the locker room, he wants to

264
00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,079
Speaker 6: do layup lines whatever. He was the only one, and

265
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,000
Speaker 6: this says he doesn't actually listen to music. But no

266
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 6: one thinks that call listens to Drake. No one thinks

267
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 6: that Hubert Davis listened to Little Dirk. I pushed back

268
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 6: on the ones where I said because I told Hubert,

269
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 6: I was like, you're using this as a recruiting tool. No, no, no,

270
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 6: you do that. He reinforced it. His staff backed it up.

271
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 6: He said littl Dirk was one, Meek Mill was two.

272
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:20,959
Speaker 6: And then Dusty May of FAU gave me rod Wave. Dan,

273
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:22,320
Speaker 6: do you even know who rod Wave is?

274
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:23,880
Speaker 7: Broadwave? Are you familiar with rod Wave?

275
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:24,520
Speaker 3: No?

276
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 6: Yeah, okay, So Dusty May is either getting the most

277
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:32,439
Speaker 6: street credit his entire life or just outright dragged. I

278
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 6: hit him up this morning. I said, listen, I'm going on,

279
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,800
Speaker 6: Dan Patrick. I'm gonna need a statement. I'm gonna need

280
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 6: you to reinforce this. He sent me a screen grab

281
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 6: of his pregame playlist and he said, for the record,

282
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 6: I support Hubert. So it's been an incredible thing. I'll

283
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 6: just give you a couple more here. Michael Jackson got

284
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:53,680
Speaker 6: the most votes. There were four Michael Jackson's Leon Rice

285
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,559
Speaker 6: at Poise Date, Rodney Terry Texas, John Grossadachron and Kevin Keats,

286
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,320
Speaker 6: and then Izzo gave me Jackson five couple of pearl

287
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 6: jams in there and footing the coach of your reigning

288
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 6: national champions, Dan Hurley. I'm a big D and B fan,

289
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 6: big one in Richard Patino at New Mexico and Chris

290
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 6: Jans at Mississippi State Gaming that it's at cbsports dot com.

291
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 6: This was such an incredibly fun thing to do. I

292
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:17,680
Speaker 6: will say this, I'm gonna give credit to the coach

293
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 6: that I think is genuinely the biggest fan of the band.

294
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 7: He gave me so sixty eight coaches.

295
00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 6: The one that I think is the biggest Tommy Lloyd

296
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 6: at Arizona can can wrap you every single Beastie Boys lyric.

297
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 6: He has attended so many concerts. He is a legit,

298
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 6: die hard beast Boys fan. So Arizona fans, you got

299
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:38,520
Speaker 6: a real one.

300
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 2: Uh No, sleep till Brooklyn for you with all of

301
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 2: this work that you're doing there.

302
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 6: That is correct, And I will be in Brooklyn on Friday.

303
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 6: By the way, Dan, I feel like the best matchup

304
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 6: for you might be Nebraska, Nebraska A and M. Buzz

305
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 6: Williams Doobie Brothers. How about Fred Hoiberg giving me queen.

306
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 6: I think that's the best. I think that's the Dan

307
00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 6: Patrick Special first round.

308
00:14:58,120 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 3: Matt Kay, all right, that's in my wheelhouse.

309
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 8: You know.

310
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 3: I like that.

311
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 2: You need to find out what Trev Albert's favorite band is.

312
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:07,920

Speaker 2: senior writer and his podcast is CBSI on college Basketball.

331
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 2: He's fired up. I think he thought that I was

332
00:15:57,800 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 2: for expansion.

333
00:15:58,920 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 3: I'm not.

334
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:03,560
Speaker 2: But then the band, it feels like even Marvin said,

335
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 2: there's no way Hubert Davis loves Little Dirk.

336
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 8: I'm too old to listen to Little Dirk.

337
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 9: There's no way Hubert is listening to Little Dirk.

338
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 2: And I do I give Cali Perry credit because he says, look,

339
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 2: I don't listen to music, but I love Drake because

340
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 2: he comes to our practices.

341
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, Paul, Hubert Davis is fifty three. Is there any

342
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 5: chance between his kids and his players. He's gotten into

343
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 5: little Dirk notices. I didn't say little Dirk, by the.

344
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 3: Way, little Dirk.

345
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:31,680
Speaker 5: Any chance, like maybe he thought it was like, what

346
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 5: are you listening to now? Not who's your favorite? Or

347
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 5: it's just recruiting.

348
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:37,200
Speaker 3: I would say recruiting.

349
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 2: Hey, I'm a hip, you know. Oh okay, you're a hip.

00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:56,760
Speaker 2: bypass the Chicago Bears. Tell us why or how you

00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:57,680

400
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 12: Yeah, Dan, before we before we dive into that, can

401
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:06,600
Speaker 12: I say something just to you on a personal level, Yes, Yeah, Dan,

402
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 12: I just wanted to say, you know, I've never had

403
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:11,320
Speaker 12: a chance to truly say this to you, but but

404
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:15,440
Speaker 12: thank you man. You're a legend in this game, and

405
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,480
Speaker 12: you know, what you were able to do at ESPN

406
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,760
Speaker 12: really helped put ESPN in the position that it is today,

407
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 12: showing that you can use nuance, entertainment, have fun. And

408
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 12: I wouldn't have been given the opportunity at ESPN from

409
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 12: the Bob Igers, the Jimmy Pittarro's, you know, the Stephanie

410
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:37,440
Speaker 12: Drew Lee's, the Norby's, the Seth markman Is, the Dave Roberts.

411
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:41,199
Speaker 12: If it wasn't for a guy like yourself. So I

412
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:42,880
Speaker 12: just want to say I appreciate all them, of course

413
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:44,760
Speaker 12: for giving me the opportunity to be at ESPN, But

414
00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 12: if it wasn't for a guy like you, I would

415
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:49,280
Speaker 12: have been given the opportunity to come out and do

416
00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:50,879
Speaker 12: this and have fun doing it the way that I have.

417
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:52,160
Speaker 8: So I just wanted to say that to you. I've

418
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 8: never had a chance to say that.

419
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:56,560
Speaker 2: And I think we've been talking to one another since

420
00:19:56,600 --> 00:20:00,679
Speaker 2: your junior year in college. I think it's been a

421
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 2: long time, a long journey here. So tell us how

422
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 2: you came up with the Caleb should say no to

423
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:07,639
Speaker 2: the Chicago Bears.

424
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 8: Yeah.

425
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:12,880
Speaker 12: I mean, the fact of the matter for the Chicago

426
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:16,360
Speaker 12: Bears is you mentioned that I'm on here for Caladuy

427
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,760
Speaker 12: War Zone right and get a chance to be a

428
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 12: part of Operation Day zero tomorrow with them and the game.

429
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 12: And we'll talk more about that in a second. But

430
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 12: speaking of war zones, I decided to start one on

431
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:31,720
Speaker 12: Monday by poking the Bears. And really what it came

432
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,880
Speaker 12: down to for me was the truth is, despite all

433
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 12: of the additions that the Bears have made this offseason,

434
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:42,720
Speaker 12: they still have instability at the head coach position and

435
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 12: too many times in NFL history, we've seen teams have

436
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:51,199
Speaker 12: very talented rosters but not have that stability at the

437
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:54,959
Speaker 12: coaching position that you need to allow cornerback to grow. So,

438
00:20:55,200 --> 00:21:00,359
Speaker 12: for me, Matt Eberflus, if you believe in him, I

439
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:04,639
Speaker 12: would challenge the Bears to extend him because you have

440
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:06,920
Speaker 12: him and Ryan Poles, and I think Ryan Pole's done

441
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:10,119
Speaker 12: a great job this offseason aviating talent. But when you

442
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:12,119
Speaker 12: ask me the specific question of how did I come

443
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 12: up with this, it's really just my analysis based off

444
00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:19,479
Speaker 12: of my own experience and NFL history. So with the Bears,

445
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 12: with what they have done, if you're going to bring

446
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,920
Speaker 12: in a rookie quarterback and you made that decision, we're

447
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 12: trading justin fields. You've made the decision to go with

448
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:31,400
Speaker 12: the rookie QB. He needs at least three to four

449
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:33,600
Speaker 12: years to be able to work with that head coach

450
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:35,360
Speaker 12: so they can grow together.

451
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:37,479
Speaker 8: So I challenge the Bears.

452
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 12: I don't know if they have, but as far as

453
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:42,480
Speaker 12: we know, ibra Flus is going to be running into

454
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 12: twenty twenty five, that's when his contract is up, based

455
00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:48,080
Speaker 12: off the contract that he got when he first signed

456
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,399
Speaker 12: there as the head coach. I think they should extend

457
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 12: into twenty twenty seven. Give him and Caleb Libs an

458
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,919
Speaker 12: opportunity to build that identity of the team, build that

459
00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:58,879
Speaker 12: with Ryan Poles at GM, and that way they're not

460
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,680
Speaker 12: looking over their shoulder. But that would be my challenge

461
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:05,879
Speaker 12: to the Bears. Extend Eberflus, give him an opportunity to

462
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:09,440
Speaker 12: actually grow with Caleb Williams. Otherwise I don't think it's

463
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,880
Speaker 12: the best situation. And that's why I said I think

464
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 12: Caleb Williams should tell them that he's not gonna come.

465
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:17,160
Speaker 2: So this hinges mostly on eber Flus being a lame

466
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 2: duck coach. If he was extended, you'd be fine Caleb

467
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:21,640
Speaker 2: going to the Bears.

468
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,919
Speaker 12: Dan if they extend Matt Eberflus, and I'm not his agent,

469
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:29,119
Speaker 12: so there's no reason for me to there's no reason

470
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:30,639
Speaker 12: for me to say this. I thought he did an

471
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,399
Speaker 12: amazing job with the Colts as a defensive coordinator. But

472
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,399
Speaker 12: if they came out and said, hey, we've extended Matt Eberflus,

473
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:39,280
Speaker 12: gave him another a two year extension, a three year extension,

474
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 12: I would I would not only just take back what

475
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 12: I said, I'd go out do another video and explain

476
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,040
Speaker 12: why it was so important that they did that. And

477
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,639
Speaker 12: I don't know where A bears jersey for the for

478
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 12: the next week.

479
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:55,480
Speaker 2: But I wonder how social media would treat Caleb Williams

480
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,919
Speaker 2: if he and his representatives say we're gonna pull an

481
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,600
Speaker 2: Eli in a John iill.

482
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:02,880
Speaker 12: Right, And I watched the show as well, Dan, because

483
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 12: I'm a fan and I think you do a great job.

484
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:10,240
Speaker 12: So I did see that yesterday you talked about what

485
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:13,119
Speaker 12: social media would say because there was no social media

486
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,160
Speaker 12: when John Elway did it, and there was no social

487
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 12: media when Eli Manning did it. And you also mentioned

488
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 12: something about whether I even believed what I was saying,

489
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:23,200
Speaker 12: which I thought was funny. But I can't confirm Dan,

490
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 12: that I believe everything that I said. And I don't

491
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:30,120
Speaker 12: think social media has been kind to Caleb Williams anyway. Yeah,

492
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,679
Speaker 12: I don't think that if he was to make a

493
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:37,600
Speaker 12: decision like this, it would ramp up the hate more

494
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:39,679
Speaker 12: than it already has been there. I mean, we've had

495
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:43,760
Speaker 12: discussions about whether real men cry. Is Caleb Williams tough

496
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,480
Speaker 12: enough to be able to survive in the NFL environments?

497
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:47,560
Speaker 8: I think for.

498
00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:51,439
Speaker 12: Him, I don't think that he'll do this. It would just,

499
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:53,639
Speaker 12: in my opinion, if he does not want to be

500
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,040
Speaker 12: in Chicago for whatever reasons, some that I've outlined, or

501
00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 12: maybe some other concerns that he has, I think he

502
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,679
Speaker 12: should exercise that and not worry about what social media says,

503
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 12: because social media is not going to be the one

504
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,240
Speaker 12: that determines whether or not he's successful over the next

505
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 12: five years. It's going to be the organization. And I

506
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,920
Speaker 12: don't think the Bears did right by Justin Fields either,

507
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 12: by the way. I did hear you speak about that,

508
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,280
Speaker 12: and I'll just say that ar oln Adam Schefter at

509
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:24,520
Speaker 12: ESPN reported that the Bears didn't have any serious offers

510
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:28,360
Speaker 12: that were better than the one that the Pittsburgh Steelers

511
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:32,159
Speaker 12: offered them, So they did not turn down better offers

512
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:34,399
Speaker 12: to send Justin Fields to Pittsburgh. It just so happened

513
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,919
Speaker 12: that they didn't have any other better offers and they

514
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 12: accommodated sending him to Pittsburgh. To me, that's a very

515
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 12: different distinction, and I think the spin, the spin on

516
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:45,879
Speaker 12: that the past couple of days has been pretty funny

517
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:46,200
Speaker 12: to watch.

518
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:48,960
Speaker 2: Well, there are the reports out there that they did

519
00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,680
Speaker 2: turn down better offers and that they were going to

520
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:55,119
Speaker 2: do right by I think Philadelphia was interested in Justin fields,

521
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 2: and I thought that would have been the ideal place

522
00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:57,760
Speaker 2: for him to go.

523
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:00,280
Speaker 8: I would agree that.

524
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:02,320
Speaker 12: I think that there were other teams that may have

525
00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:06,120
Speaker 12: been interested in Justin fields, but they weren't interested enough

526
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 12: to make a better offer. So that I can only

527
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:10,800
Speaker 12: go by the reports from guys from our network.

528
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 8: Sure, you know, and Adam.

529
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:14,040
Speaker 12: Schefter is one of the best in the game, if

530
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 12: not the best in the game, and he came out

531
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:19,120
Speaker 12: and said that they did not have serious.

532
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:20,880
Speaker 8: Better offers for Justin fields. So that's all I can

533
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:21,399
Speaker 8: operate by.

534
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,720
Speaker 2: And the only thing I would bring up as well.

535
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:25,960
Speaker 2: And you know this better than anybody. There's been turnover

536
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,960
Speaker 2: with the Commanders, but that's not exactly you know, a

537
00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:31,920
Speaker 2: safe haven to fall back on just because you're going home.

538
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 2: If you're Caleb Williams, I still I don't think the

539
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 2: Commander's roster and you got a defensive minded I hate

540
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 2: defensive minded head coaches if you bring in rookie quarterbacks, right.

541
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 8: But aren't you saying that isn't that what the Bears have?

542
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,359
Speaker 3: But that's what the Commanders have yea, yeah, as what

543
00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:48,680
Speaker 3: I'm saying.

544
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:49,480
Speaker 8: But that's what the Bears have.

545
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 3: So if you hate the defense, I wouldn't have kept

546
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 3: Matt Eberflus.

547
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:55,600
Speaker 12: So that that's my point about all of this. Like

548
00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:58,240
Speaker 12: I even mentioned it in the video. I thought it

549
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 12: was I thought it was hilarious that people started talking

550
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,400
Speaker 12: talking about the last hundred years for the Bears when I.

551
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:05,840
Speaker 8: Clearly stated at the beginning of the video, just just.

552
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:09,359
Speaker 12: In fields, right, But listen, if I just I'm a

553
00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:15,600
Speaker 12: big believer in we gotta hold organizations accountable for poor plans,

554
00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:19,320
Speaker 12: poor fits, and poor development of players. Too often we

555
00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 12: just blame the player it was his fault. It was this, like,

556
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 12: we gotta hold organizations accountable. And if you're building a

557
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:28,919
Speaker 12: team with a young rookie quarterback, you either fire the

558
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:30,680
Speaker 12: coach because you're not sure about them.

559
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:32,360
Speaker 8: Right. We know this.

560
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,439
Speaker 12: We talked about it all off season. At the beginning

561
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:38,280
Speaker 12: of the off season, there was uncertainty about whether or

562
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:41,000
Speaker 12: not the Bears were going to keep Matt Eberflus.

563
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:42,440
Speaker 8: If you're already.

564
00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:45,399
Speaker 12: Saying that, once you decide to make the decision to

565
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:47,840
Speaker 12: go rookie quarterback, you either got to fire that guy.

566
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 8: Or you got to extend him. And that's where I'm at.

567
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 12: So when you look at Washington, I'm actually I'm shooting

568
00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:57,000
Speaker 12: my podcast Are You Three and the Ones today and

569
00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:59,359
Speaker 12: I'll go even more in depth on this whole topic.

570
00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:04,240
Speaker 12: But for Washington, it's more of a clean slate, new ownership,

571
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:08,760
Speaker 12: new GM, new head coach. They're going to probably get

572
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:10,600
Speaker 12: at least three years.

573
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 8: To figure this thing out.

574
00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:15,359
Speaker 12: If the Bears don't win more than seven games, I

575
00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:17,159
Speaker 12: don't think if they don't win ten games to go

576
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:20,120
Speaker 12: to the playoffs, Matt Eberflus is not going to be there.

577
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 12: I don't think that's fair to him. I don't think

578
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,120
Speaker 12: it's fair to his family. I don't think it's fair

579
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 12: to whatever quarterback they draft, whoever it is. I'm just

580
00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 12: challenging the Bears come out and say you extended them,

581
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:31,920
Speaker 12: or extend them. You know, I know that's not their

582
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 12: traditional practice, but security instability is one of the most

583
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:37,760
Speaker 12: important things for a head coach.

584
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:39,400
Speaker 8: Quarterback combination.

585
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 2: All right, just to get you on record, your favorite

586
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,960
Speaker 2: quarterback in the draft is, who's the best quarterback in

587
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:44,399
Speaker 2: the draft.

588
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 8: Yeah it's Caleb Blue.

589
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:48,000
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, I would have loved it if you said,

590
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:49,200
Speaker 2: Jayden Daniels.

591
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:54,200
Speaker 12: I mean, listen, I understand everyone's going to have their opinion.

592
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 12: And it's lying season right now, right. We do this

593
00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:02,160
Speaker 12: every year. Apparently to some people, Drake May's not even

594
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 12: a top five quarterback in the draft class, right, so

595
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,200
Speaker 12: we picked these guys apart, That's not really what I do.

596
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 12: I like to show the fan what these guys do.

597
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:10,639
Speaker 8: Well.

598
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:13,040
Speaker 12: I will do that leading up to the draft as well.

599
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,400
Speaker 12: But Caleb Williams is the best quarterback in this draft class.

600
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 12: It's not that the rest of the guys aren't extremely

601
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 12: talented or great. It's just that Caleb Williams is the

602
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:22,400
Speaker 12: number one guy.

603
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:25,320
Speaker 2: We're talking to RG three and he is joining us

604
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:28,040
Speaker 2: on behalf of Call of Duty war Zone Mobile that

605
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:28,920
Speaker 2: drops tomorrow.

606
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:30,320
Speaker 3: How'd you get involved in this?

607
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:32,760
Speaker 12: Well, I mean, I've been a big Call of Duty

608
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 12: fan my entire life. I can't sit here and tell

609
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,560
Speaker 12: you that I'm like a ranked player in the world.

610
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 3: You're not like a Kyler Murray.

611
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 2: Are you where you were focusing on video games more

612
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:42,680
Speaker 2: than the playbook?

613
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:47,200
Speaker 8: Okay? Who even said that that was true?

614
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 13: Dad?

615
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:49,680
Speaker 8: I can't. I can't sit here and confirm that that

616
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 8: to be true. If Kyler Murray likes video games, I'm.

617
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:54,560
Speaker 3: Okay, look at okay, all right, But.

618
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,240
Speaker 12: I will say that I've been a fan of Call

619
00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:57,760
Speaker 12: of Duty for a really long time. So this is

620
00:28:57,760 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 12: a dream come true to be able to be in

621
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,240
Speaker 12: partnership with them. And really what it comes down to

Speaker 12: as well. And for me, Dan, it makes it so

630
00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 12: much easier because of the schedules that we have. You know,

631

Speaker 12: you were blessed to have this show and be able

00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 12: to be one of the leaders in the industry and

633
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 12: kind of you know, chart your own path. Right now,

634
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:38,200
Speaker 12: I'm trying to get to that point. So I'm everywhere,

635
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:42,120
Speaker 12: I'm traveling for college football, NFL doing all these different things.

636
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,240
Speaker 12: So for me to be able to have opportunity to

637
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:47,960
Speaker 12: play the video game on my phone and have all

638
00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 12: of the resources of the traditional call of duty war

639
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 12: zone from the console. Makes it easy for me and

640
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,920
Speaker 12: I look forward to having a blast tomorrow being out

641
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 12: there in LA at the headquarters.

642
00:29:58,200 --> 00:29:58,920
Speaker 8: To have a good time.

643
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 2: So there's no true to the rumor Kyler Murray would

644
00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:05,680
Speaker 2: use call of duty uh kind of words as audibles,

645
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 2: like he wouldn't yell out war zone, war zone and

646
00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:09,200
Speaker 2: that was like his omaha, omaha.

647
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,720
Speaker 12: Right, I'm guessing I can I can neither confirm nor

648
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 12: did not, Okay, but what I will say is that, uh,

649
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 12: for all my gamers out there, uh, the better you

650
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:22,480
Speaker 12: get at video games, just my opinion speaking, the better

651
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 12: you get at video games. Video games is problem solving.

652
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 12: What is football? It's problem solving. You get to the

653
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:30,040
Speaker 12: line of scrimmage, you diagnose the defense, you figure out

654
00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 12: how to attack it. That's what That's what wars.

655
00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:32,320
Speaker 2: I mean.

656
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:34,680

Speaker 2: Junior the Third. Still one of the most amazing moments

670
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:13,800
Speaker 2: that we had. And then didn't sal Pallantonio go on

671
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:17,800

Speaker 8: Yeah.

681
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:40,880
Speaker 2: I've walked into my son's bedroom when he was growing up,

682
00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 2: and he would be there with his gamer and he'd

683
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 2: be on a and he had a headset on and

684
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 2: you couldn't interrupt him. It was like, you know, hey,

685
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,760
Speaker 2: time for dinner. He would just disavowanty knowledge of you.

686
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, Paul, if you remember, about four months into doing

687
00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:57,800
Speaker 5: the show in your attic. I came in one day

688
00:31:57,840 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 5: and I go, Dan, I'm having some trouble with a computer.

689
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,800
Speaker 5: We didn't have an IT department. And what's wrong, Like

690
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:05,320
Speaker 5: there's Halo on my computer? That the game Halo has

691
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 5: been played Like it wasn't me.

692
00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I said to my son, because we weren't allowing

693
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 2: him to play video games, so he snuck upstairs when

694
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:18,360
Speaker 2: we had the studio in the attic and PAULI goes, Uh,

695
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 2: hate to bust your son, but I think he's been

696
00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:22,080
Speaker 2: playing Halo up here.

697
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:23,800
Speaker 3: I didn't name names, I said one of the children.

698
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 3: One of the children, Yeah, my daughter's never played, but Jack,

699
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:29,520
Speaker 3: oh my god.

700
00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:32,600
Speaker 2: He was addicted to it. It's crazy, like you would

701
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:33,719
Speaker 2: hide it and he'd find it.

702
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:35,360
Speaker 3: Yeah.

703
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:38,120
Speaker 2: And then the fact that he broke into the studio

704
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:41,479
Speaker 2: just so he could play Halo up there. All right,

705
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 2: let me take a break. Phone calls coming up, and

706
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:45,640
Speaker 2: update our poll results as well.

707
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:46,400
Speaker 3: Back after this.

708
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:49,520
Speaker 1: Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan

709
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 1: Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific

710
00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:56,480
Speaker 1: on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio WAPP.

711
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 2: I like having guests on and making sure that I

712
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 2: hear something in context. Sometimes when you see something on

713
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:08,320
Speaker 2: Twitter or somebody puts out a video, maybe it's not complete.

714
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 2: We chop it up, we take out what we want.

715
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:15,280
Speaker 2: We try to sensationalize something. And RG three said something

716
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:18,959
Speaker 2: about Caleb Williams and the Bears, and I said to Fritzy,

717
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 2: invite him on. I'd like to understand the whole context

718
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:23,800
Speaker 2: of that. So when he told me that, now he

719
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 2: explained it in a way that I understand it. Don't

720
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:28,880
Speaker 2: have him go into a situation where you have a

721
00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:31,440
Speaker 2: coach who's a lame duck coach in his last year.

722
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 2: Either extend him or they should have fired him. And

723
00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:40,280
Speaker 2: I absolutely agree with that. But going to Washington, defensive

724
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 2: minded coach there, Yes, dan Quinn just getting there, you

725
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:47,320
Speaker 2: got new ownership, Okay, But I think this GM in

726
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 2: Chicago has done right by the Bears. I think he

727
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:54,440
Speaker 2: did a good job in the off season, and the

728
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:57,680
Speaker 2: Bears to me, would be a better situation talent wise

729
00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:02,160
Speaker 2: than Washington would be. But that's, you know, just on

730
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 2: the outside looking in with what they acquired. And at

731
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 2: least iber Flus has.

732
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 3: Been there for a little while.

733
00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:12,680
Speaker 2: Dan Quinn is restarting his head coaching career coming from

734
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:17,080
Speaker 2: Dallas and another defensive minded head coach. I don't like

735
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:20,239
Speaker 2: having my quarterback going into a situation where the head

736
00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:22,080
Speaker 2: coach is a defensive minded coach.

737
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:24,720
Speaker 3: I know it's worked out. People have pointed out examples.

738
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 2: I get all of that, but in today's NFL, it's

739
00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:31,279
Speaker 2: all about your quarterback. Do right by your quarterback. They

740
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,560
Speaker 2: didn't do right by their quarterback with Justin Fields, who

741
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:36,719
Speaker 2: I think can still play be a starter.

742
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 3: In the NFL.

743
00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:40,799
Speaker 2: I still believe that, all right. So it was good

744
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:43,960
Speaker 2: having him on. He has strong opinions, and I appreciate that.

745
00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:46,680
Speaker 2: A couple of phone calls in here Joe and Iowa,

746
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:47,920
Speaker 2: Hi Joe, what's on your mind?

747
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:50,319
Speaker 3: Adp Hey, But.

748
00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:56,719
Speaker 14: Man, I'm sorry I lost it for a second. I

749
00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:59,360
Speaker 14: was just going to touch on the on the MLB

750
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:02,200
Speaker 14: season open up in wherever it is, Japan. I don't

751
00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:04,839
Speaker 14: think it matters. There's one hundred and sixty two games.

752
00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:06,239
Speaker 14: Just kind of play them.

753
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:10,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, I you know, I railed on this last hour.

754
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:14,280
Speaker 2: At this time, I just think that it's Baseball's opening day.

755
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:18,960
Speaker 2: It should be here. It's America's pastime and you're playing it,

756
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 2: you know, in Seoul South Korea. I understand the marketing.

757
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:24,760
Speaker 2: I understand all of that. You could have played spring

758
00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:28,479
Speaker 2: training games over there and gotten the same reaction from

759
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:33,399
Speaker 2: that crowd with show Hao Tony Baseball Dodgers, your Dodger fan,

760
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:34,960
Speaker 2: you wake up, you have to wake up at three

761
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:37,520
Speaker 2: in the morning to watch your team on opening Day.

762
00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 2: I didn't think it's fair to them. And they're playing

763
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:43,600
Speaker 2: the Padres. So it's West Coast fans, and you're playing

764
00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:46,959
Speaker 2: in Seoul, South Korea, and your game starts at three

765
00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:50,480
Speaker 2: am local time on the West Coast. I don't know

766
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:53,799
Speaker 2: if you wanted it to disappear. I think you did

767
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:57,400
Speaker 2: a pretty good job making it disappear. And if it

768
00:35:57,440 --> 00:35:59,839
Speaker 2: was a spring training game, you would have maybe gotten

769
00:35:59,880 --> 00:36:01,719
Speaker 2: the same highlights we would have.

770
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 3: The crowd, they go crazy.

771
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:06,319
Speaker 2: There's more of a soccer crowd over there, very animated.

772
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:10,160
Speaker 2: You know, show Hey o Tani and the welcome that

773
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 2: he would get. But maybe I'm in the minority here.

774
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:16,400
Speaker 2: I just think baseball should open up here, and you

775
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 2: still so the Dodgers and Potteris have to come back

776
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:23,480
Speaker 2: and then they play spring training games and then baseball's

777
00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:27,000
Speaker 2: regular season starts next week. That to me seems a

778
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:31,160
Speaker 2: little flawed. Big Al in Arizona. Hi, big Al, what's

779
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:31,920
Speaker 2: on your mind today?

780
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:33,480
Speaker 3: Hey?

781
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:34,520
Speaker 13: DP, how you doing it?

782
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:37,680
Speaker 3: Yes, sir, good sir, First time.

783
00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:41,759
Speaker 13: Long time six two three twenty a one seed just understudy.

784
00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:47,040
Speaker 13: So last night Bruce Springsteak played concert here in Phoenix,

785
00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:50,239
Speaker 13: and I was fortunate enough to go. But I want

786
00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:52,960
Speaker 13: to personally thank Chrissy for ruining the show from your

787
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:53,520
Speaker 13: last year.

788
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:55,040
Speaker 8: Sorry about that.

789
00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:58,640
Speaker 13: All night long, all night long, and you know he

790
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:03,600
Speaker 13: was fantastic, played three hours, great, but especially during thunder Road,

791
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 13: all I could think of was Flitzy doing his poor

792
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:09,080
Speaker 13: imitation of the Boss.

793
00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:13,880
Speaker 3: All right, come on now, glad you had a good time.

794
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:23,759
Speaker 2: Out there, you go Al, bring it home, Okay, on

795
00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:27,839
Speaker 2: home now? Thank you, Thank you, big guy. I think

796
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:31,160
Speaker 2: if you saw Springsteen and concert, you change your opinion, Todd,

797
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:35,239
Speaker 2: because you like Billy Joel playing the same songs over

798
00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:38,520
Speaker 2: and over, probably has the same corny jokes over and over.

799
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:42,160
Speaker 7: I don't foresee that happen though, but you know what

800
00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:43,400
Speaker 7: I heard, He's got a lot of energy.

801
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 3: Were you trying to be Billy Joel?

802
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:45,600
Speaker 1: There? It was like a mix.

803
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:46,719
Speaker 7: It was like a Bruce Joel.

804
00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:49,600
Speaker 10: Yeah, I understand he goes for many hours and he

805
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:51,400
Speaker 10: runs around like a teenager all over the state, So

806
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:52,319
Speaker 10: I respect that much.

807
00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:55,640
Speaker 9: Yes, it is a long concert.

808
00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:56,040
Speaker 7: It is.

809
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:57,760
Speaker 9: It is a very long concert.

810
00:37:57,800 --> 00:37:58,160
Speaker 8: Yes it is.

811
00:37:58,960 --> 00:37:59,840
Speaker 3: Yeah.

812
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:01,440
Speaker 4: And there are times where you're like, all right, it's

813
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:03,520
Speaker 4: got to be over pretty soon, and then an hour

814
00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:05,960
Speaker 4: later you're like, god, he's going into like another gospel.

815
00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:09,000
Speaker 2: It's oh my god. Well when he used to do

816
00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:11,960
Speaker 2: the preacher thing, I didn't. I didn't like that when

817
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:15,160
Speaker 2: he'd do his gospel. According to I just he was

818
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:15,919
Speaker 2: losing me there.

819
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:18,400
Speaker 9: I haven't seen him in years, but yeah, it was.

820
00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:19,479
Speaker 9: It was a long time.

821
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,239
Speaker 5: Yes, I'm going to make the surest bet of all time.

822
00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:26,000
Speaker 5: Fritzi will never see Bruce Springsteen concert. Unless Bruce Springsteen

823
00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:28,880
Speaker 5: is playing Glastonbury, Connecticut at the cul Dezac down the

824
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:30,879
Speaker 5: street from Fritzy, and it's like middle of the day,

825
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:34,240
Speaker 5: not nighttime, it's never gonna happen. Even if Bruce Springston

826
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:34,799
Speaker 5: invited him.

827
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:36,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it would have to be like a mix

828
00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:39,080
Speaker 2: of him and like other you know, musicians that I

829
00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:42,359
Speaker 2: really like. Okay, we got it, we got you don't

830
00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:43,080
Speaker 2: like Springsteen.

831
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:45,480
Speaker 4: I think it'd probably be a work. The only way

832
00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 4: he would actually go is if it was a work

833
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:50,960
Speaker 4: thing and you made him go. Okay, that's probably most likely.

834
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, No, I mean it's fine. He didn't.

835
00:38:55,280 --> 00:39:01,080
Speaker 2: He doesn't have to go. It's his loss. Yes, Marvin, No, Paul,

836
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:01,480
Speaker 2: you got it.

837
00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:01,880
Speaker 9: Go ahead.

838
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:05,120
Speaker 5: Bruce Springsteen is playing Mohegan Sun Arena about an hour

839
00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:08,960
Speaker 5: from here, April twelfth, twenty twenty four, four weeks from today.

840
00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I don't care.

841
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:12,000
Speaker 8: Who wouldn't want to see that?

842
00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:14,319
Speaker 3: Yeah? If Todd doesn't want to go, I don't care.

843
00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:16,319
Speaker 7: We still have that bandana sticking out of his jeans.

844
00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 8: He still does that?

845
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:17,239
Speaker 13: Look?

846
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:18,759
Speaker 7: Is that a thing?

847
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 9: I don't care.

848
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:23,319
Speaker 3: You done got anything else?

849
00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:25,200
Speaker 7: A little red bandanas sticking out of the blue jeans?

850
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:25,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, I got it.

851
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:28,399
Speaker 9: I don't care.

852
00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:32,520
Speaker 3: I don't I don't care.

853
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 9: Yeah, Marvin random, does he ever do a cover of Fire?

854
00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:39,200
Speaker 3: Well?

855
00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:41,719
Speaker 2: He wrote it, That's what I mean. Yeah, I don't know.

856
00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:44,000
Speaker 2: I don't know if he does because the night that

857
00:39:44,040 --> 00:39:48,400
Speaker 2: he gave to Patti Smith, So I don't know if

858
00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:51,080
Speaker 2: he does. I've only seen him in concert a couple

859
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:55,840
Speaker 2: of times. But you know, he didn't disappoint. He was fun, energetic,

860
00:39:56,520 --> 00:40:03,600
Speaker 2: all good stuff there. Let me see Ab and DESMONA. Hey, Ab,

861
00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:04,680
Speaker 2: what's on your mind today?

862
00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 15: ADB six three one yep offt Hey, I want to

863
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,560
Speaker 15: get your take on the Caden Proctor situation, how to

864
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:17,799
Speaker 15: affect the evolving college football landscape regarding nil. So maybe

865
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:20,920
Speaker 15: a little background for listeners who aren't in Iowa. He's

866
00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:23,600
Speaker 15: a local offensive tackle, highest drink recruit in the Kirk

867
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:27,600
Speaker 15: Farrens era committed Iowa out of high school. De committed

868
00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:30,760
Speaker 15: the day before signing day to play for Nick Saban

869
00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:34,160
Speaker 15: at Alabama, and January, when Saban retired, he entered the

870
00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:37,200
Speaker 15: transfer portal, and three days later verbally committed to the

871
00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:41,680
Speaker 15: Hawks again. Yesterday he announced and he's re entering the portal,

872
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:45,680
Speaker 15: likely to return to Alabama without ever attending practice at

873
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:47,760
Speaker 15: Iowa and collecting sman Iowa.

874
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:51,440
Speaker 2: Yeah nice, Hey, welcome to college athletics.

875
00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:52,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, Paul.

876
00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:54,200
Speaker 5: A lot of people are frustrated with this because this

877
00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:59,200
Speaker 5: young man, Caden Proctor transfer to Iowa. Supposedly the Swarm

878
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:02,040
Speaker 5: Collective fundraised at least one hundred thousand dollars to get

879
00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:05,560
Speaker 5: him there without setting foot on a practice field or playing.

880
00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:08,120
Speaker 5: He's going to keep the hundred thousand and go right

881
00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:11,399
Speaker 5: back to Alabama. Supposedly, this is what's being reported. Would

882
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:14,120
Speaker 5: it be fair to have NIL be a contract where

883
00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:17,400
Speaker 5: you get NIO money and you have to finish the

884
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:21,120
Speaker 5: season to earn it. Yes, like like any contract where

885
00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:22,480
Speaker 5: you actually have to show up to work to get

886
00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:22,839
Speaker 5: your money.

887
00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:25,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, he shouldn't get the hundred thousand dollars without paying,

888
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:29,520
Speaker 2: but nilaying and then pay it back If you're not

889
00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:30,880
Speaker 2: going to keep it the money he's going to get

890
00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 2: to go back to Alabama, he should be giving that

891
00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:33,840
Speaker 2: back to Iowa.

892
00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:36,480
Speaker 5: But NIL is being used as an acquisition fee these days.

893
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:39,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, so of course it is. It's a recruiting tool.

894
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:43,120
Speaker 2: It's always been that way. Do we really think a

895
00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 2: kid goes to school and goes uh, well, I guess

896
00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 2: can we get around to talk about nil? You talk

897
00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:51,440
Speaker 2: about nil the first time you're talking to your coach.

898
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:56,279
Speaker 2: That's what you care about. Dawn Staley, South Carolina head
