WEBVTT - HOUR 1- Larry Scott Sep 18, 2020

0:00:00.680 --> 0:00:03.560
<v Speaker 1>You are listening to The Dan Patrick Show on Fox

0:00:03.560 --> 0:00:18.040
<v Speaker 1>Sports Radio. Welcome to The Dan Patrick Show. Pat forty

0:00:18.120 --> 0:00:21.000
<v Speaker 1>from Sports Illustrated senior writer. Now, what does this mean

0:00:21.040 --> 0:00:23.240
<v Speaker 1>for the PAC twelve? They're on the clock, Pack twelve

0:00:23.360 --> 0:00:26.560
<v Speaker 1>presidents meeting on Friday. I think to see if they

0:00:26.600 --> 0:00:30.360
<v Speaker 1>can get a consensus to go ahead and move forward

0:00:30.440 --> 0:00:33.960
<v Speaker 1>with formalized practices. Can the PAC twelve pull this off?

0:00:34.360 --> 0:00:36.600
<v Speaker 1>Last I heard they're trying to shoot for a Halloween

0:00:36.720 --> 0:00:38.680
<v Speaker 1>kickoff and see how many games they can get it.

0:00:39.120 --> 0:00:42.400
<v Speaker 1>Bringing you the biggest guests and best interviews. This is

0:00:42.440 --> 0:00:46.680
<v Speaker 1>about seven hundred million dollars. Kirk kirp Street, ESPN College

0:00:46.680 --> 0:00:49.400
<v Speaker 1>Football analyst. I don't, honestly, I don't even think these

0:00:49.520 --> 0:00:52.120
<v Speaker 1>coaches are up in arms at this point. It's the

0:00:52.159 --> 0:00:56.080
<v Speaker 1>conference that candidly has been struggling to matter. Really, the

0:00:56.360 --> 0:00:59.080
<v Speaker 1>Oregon brand is about the only one right now carrying

0:00:59.120 --> 0:01:04.080

<v Speaker 1>is Dan Patrick. Made it to a Friday. It's a

0:01:07.240 --> 0:01:10.840
<v Speaker 1>pretzy Friday at that. He's got four guests book including

0:01:10.959 --> 0:01:15.240

<v Speaker 1>That's what I'm hearing. We'll talk to the commissioner. Coming on,

0:01:26.040 --> 0:01:28.800
<v Speaker 1>Browns beat the Bengals, Heat go up two oh and

<v Speaker 1>the Celtics Nuggets Lakers game one tonight. The Mid American

0:01:33.000 --> 0:01:35.120
<v Speaker 1>Conference is going to try to play. They may be

0:01:35.240 --> 0:01:38.360
<v Speaker 1>voting over the weekend. We got a lot going on,

0:01:38.520 --> 0:01:41.360
<v Speaker 1>but come on in, stay a while. You can watch

0:01:41.400 --> 0:01:43.760
<v Speaker 1>on Peacock. You can listen on a three hundred and

0:01:43.760 --> 0:01:47.000
<v Speaker 1>sixty two radio affiliates around the country, including the Fox

<v Speaker 1>Sports Radio lineup. If you'd like to get in touch,

0:01:49.400 --> 0:01:51.320
<v Speaker 1>you can. You can dial us up each seven seven

0:01:51.360 --> 0:01:54.640
<v Speaker 1>three D P Show email address Dpadan Patrick dot com,

0:01:54.640 --> 0:01:57.600
<v Speaker 1>Twitter handle at DP show. Now that we've had a

0:01:57.600 --> 0:01:59.600
<v Speaker 1>couple of days, we saw the Browns beating the Bengals

0:01:59.680 --> 0:02:02.880
<v Speaker 1>last we probably worn ourselves out with the Week one

0:02:03.200 --> 0:02:06.680
<v Speaker 1>NFL overreactions. So Week two is arriving just in time

0:02:06.760 --> 0:02:09.800
<v Speaker 1>so we can overreact to that. And I get it.

0:02:09.800 --> 0:02:12.040
<v Speaker 1>It's a big week because we've all seen those numbers.

0:02:12.360 --> 0:02:14.560
<v Speaker 1>You go back to nineteen ninety only twelve percent of

0:02:14.600 --> 0:02:17.120
<v Speaker 1>teams that start out oh and two have reached the postseason.

0:02:17.480 --> 0:02:21.239
<v Speaker 1>But they are adding another playoff team in each conference,

0:02:21.280 --> 0:02:24.799
<v Speaker 1>so you can throw that stat out the window. No preseason,

0:02:25.160 --> 0:02:28.040
<v Speaker 1>limited training camp, and teams are going to change right

0:02:28.040 --> 0:02:30.640
<v Speaker 1>in front of our eyes. Bill Belichick used to use

0:02:30.720 --> 0:02:33.080
<v Speaker 1>the first and probably still does the first month of

0:02:33.080 --> 0:02:36.600
<v Speaker 1>the season as his preseason. He had a better idea

0:02:36.600 --> 0:02:38.720
<v Speaker 1>after that first month of what kind of team he had.

0:02:39.560 --> 0:02:42.400
<v Speaker 1>Tom Brady's going to look a whole lot different by

0:02:42.480 --> 0:02:45.720
<v Speaker 1>week eight, Gardner Minshew's not going to complete ninety five

0:02:45.760 --> 0:02:48.799
<v Speaker 1>percent of his passes for Jacksonville. At some point, se

0:02:48.880 --> 0:02:51.920
<v Speaker 1>Quon Barkley may get a few rushing yards. And I

0:02:52.000 --> 0:02:56.080
<v Speaker 1>know whatever happens on Sunday will see monumental. Never mind

0:02:56.080 --> 0:02:57.880
<v Speaker 1>the fact that seven days later there will be a

0:02:57.880 --> 0:03:01.600
<v Speaker 1>new slate of games to overhype. If the Browns had

0:03:01.639 --> 0:03:05.359
<v Speaker 1>lost last night, what would we be saying? We would

0:03:05.400 --> 0:03:09.400
<v Speaker 1>be crushing them? Baker Mayfield, Odell Beckham can't live up

0:03:09.440 --> 0:03:12.880
<v Speaker 1>to the hype. But they won last night, So is

0:03:12.919 --> 0:03:17.880
<v Speaker 1>everything okay? Everything's good with Odell Beckham Junior. You know

0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:21.000
<v Speaker 1>you don't have to trade him right now? What happens

0:03:21.160 --> 0:03:24.919
<v Speaker 1>the following week. If they happen to lose, then Baker

0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:28.800
<v Speaker 1>Mayfield can't play the position. Odell Beckham Junior should be traded.

0:03:29.280 --> 0:03:32.760
<v Speaker 1>Is it going to be week to week? It's no surprise.

0:03:32.840 --> 0:03:35.680
<v Speaker 1>It's no secret the Browns need to run the football.

0:03:36.240 --> 0:03:38.640
<v Speaker 1>You have some really good offensive lineman. I want to

0:03:38.640 --> 0:03:41.480
<v Speaker 1>take pressure off Baker Mayfield. He only threw sixteen passes

0:03:41.600 --> 0:03:44.840
<v Speaker 1>last night. But what did you do? You gave it

0:03:44.880 --> 0:03:49.200
<v Speaker 1>to your all pro running backs Nick Chubb and you know,

0:03:49.400 --> 0:03:53.960
<v Speaker 1>Kareem Hunt. I mean, these guys are really good, and therefore,

0:03:54.400 --> 0:03:56.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't put Baker in a position where he's got

0:03:56.840 --> 0:03:59.560
<v Speaker 1>to win a game. I don't want him to lose

0:03:59.600 --> 0:04:02.800
<v Speaker 1>a game. They average six yards to carry. Now, granted

0:04:02.840 --> 0:04:06.200
<v Speaker 1>it's the Bengals that's not a good defense, but the

0:04:06.240 --> 0:04:08.760
<v Speaker 1>Browns one. So we can put that off to the

0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:11.200
<v Speaker 1>side just for a moment. It's like, if the Packers

0:04:11.200 --> 0:04:15.120
<v Speaker 1>would lose to the Lions this weekend, now what happens.

0:04:16.760 --> 0:04:20.440
<v Speaker 1>Everything was great Week one. If they lose to the Lions,

0:04:20.480 --> 0:04:26.800
<v Speaker 1>then what do we say, oh, Aaron Rodgers. Yeah, keep

0:04:26.839 --> 0:04:29.039
<v Speaker 1>in mind, you've had people now come out and said, hey,

0:04:29.080 --> 0:04:31.320
<v Speaker 1>the Packers did the right thing. They drafted a quarterback,

0:04:31.520 --> 0:04:33.719
<v Speaker 1>and now Aaron is angry. He's got a chip on

0:04:33.760 --> 0:04:35.360
<v Speaker 1>his shoulder. Will He's still be angry. I have a

0:04:35.440 --> 0:04:38.479
<v Speaker 1>chip on his shoulder if they lose. But that's what

0:04:38.600 --> 0:04:43.240
<v Speaker 1>happens week to week. Cam Newton Patriots, everything's great, Go

0:04:43.320 --> 0:04:47.400
<v Speaker 1>to Seattle. What if he does a couple interceptions, fumbles

0:04:47.400 --> 0:04:49.760
<v Speaker 1>a couple of times, doesn't gain a lot of yards

0:04:49.839 --> 0:04:55.080
<v Speaker 1>rushing Ben One Ravens. What if the Ravens lose to Houston.

0:04:56.400 --> 0:04:59.799
<v Speaker 1>Maybe they're not as good as last year. Oh themar

0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:02.920
<v Speaker 1>jack and still learning the position? Like this is what happens.

0:05:02.960 --> 0:05:05.599
<v Speaker 1>It's week to week where we look at a storyline

0:05:05.920 --> 0:05:07.880
<v Speaker 1>and then we want to beach over the head with

0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:11.279
<v Speaker 1>that storyline. The Browns are in disarray. This is trouble.

0:05:11.360 --> 0:05:14.800
<v Speaker 1>You gotta get rid of Odell Beckham junior. Kevin Stefanski

0:05:14.880 --> 0:05:18.240
<v Speaker 1>could be over his head as the head coach there. Okay,

0:05:19.320 --> 0:05:22.800
<v Speaker 1>they looked okay last night. They gotta win and I'm

0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:26.000
<v Speaker 1>not giving out style points. I just want you to win.

0:05:26.520 --> 0:05:28.760
<v Speaker 1>And if you're a Cleveland Browns fan, you'll take what

0:05:28.839 --> 0:05:32.240
<v Speaker 1>you saw last night. Joe Burrow made an interesting last night.

0:05:33.040 --> 0:05:37.920
<v Speaker 1>When you throw sixty one times, no interceptions, but there

0:05:37.960 --> 0:05:41.360
<v Speaker 1>should be a lot of excitement around him. But you're

0:05:41.400 --> 0:05:44.279
<v Speaker 1>throwing a lot of passes, which means you're probably losing.

0:05:45.480 --> 0:05:50.160
<v Speaker 1>Since nineteen seventy, teams are twenty three, forty nine and

0:05:50.279 --> 0:05:55.760
<v Speaker 1>one when their quarterback completes at least thirty seven passes. Now,

0:05:55.760 --> 0:05:58.640
<v Speaker 1>you're not throwing that much unless you're losing. The winning

0:05:58.720 --> 0:06:03.480
<v Speaker 1>quarterback last night, Mayfield completed sixteen passes. The Bengals are

0:06:03.520 --> 0:06:07.200
<v Speaker 1>going to be bad. Joe Burrow is good, and Joe

0:06:07.240 --> 0:06:11.040
<v Speaker 1>Burrow looks like he has all the elements of being

0:06:11.160 --> 0:06:14.960
<v Speaker 1>a franchise quarterback. If I said to a Browns fan today,

0:06:15.440 --> 0:06:19.159
<v Speaker 1>would you trade for Joe Burrow? You do it in

0:06:19.160 --> 0:06:22.880
<v Speaker 1>a second. But it's because of the unknown with Joe Burrow.

0:06:23.120 --> 0:06:27.080
<v Speaker 1>You've seen enough of Baker Mayfield and you're not quite

0:06:27.160 --> 0:06:29.240
<v Speaker 1>sure what you have there with Joe Burrow. Looks like

0:06:29.279 --> 0:06:33.880
<v Speaker 1>the real deal, and he's got composure. He's still like.

0:06:34.040 --> 0:06:37.479
<v Speaker 1>His approach last night was if as if he had

0:06:37.480 --> 0:06:40.839
<v Speaker 1>the LSU talent around him, even though he didn't. Aj

0:06:41.040 --> 0:06:44.200
<v Speaker 1>Green mcclovitt, I don't know how that's gonna go, Probably

0:06:44.240 --> 0:06:47.279
<v Speaker 1>not gonna go well, wow, because he misses his guy.

0:06:47.360 --> 0:06:50.200
<v Speaker 1>The red rifle kn't catch as Joe Burrow passes. Oh

0:06:50.240 --> 0:06:52.840
<v Speaker 1>so if Andy Dalton was there, then AJ Green would

0:06:52.839 --> 0:06:55.640
<v Speaker 1>have shown up. Yeah, there's something about on AJ Greeder

0:06:55.720 --> 0:06:58.720
<v Speaker 1>magic and not so much Burrow. This program brought to

0:07:10.560 --> 0:07:12.600
<v Speaker 1>for me? Yeah, we have a couple of pole questions,

0:07:12.720 --> 0:07:15.240
<v Speaker 1>a couple of O'Dell pole questions. Oh no, sorry, let's

0:07:15.240 --> 0:07:17.600
<v Speaker 1>start with the Baker Mayfield question. All right, let's hear

0:07:17.640 --> 0:07:21.520
<v Speaker 1>from Baker Mayfield on last night's game, the victory over

0:07:21.560 --> 0:07:25.000
<v Speaker 1>the Bengals. Any time you can execute those first fifteen

0:07:25.080 --> 0:07:27.640
<v Speaker 1>plays that you have and you practice over and over again,

0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:30.640
<v Speaker 1>it feels great. You know, able to establish a run game,

0:07:30.720 --> 0:07:34.560
<v Speaker 1>able to get completions, like I said after the Baltimore game,

0:07:34.720 --> 0:07:36.840
<v Speaker 1>just getting the ball in their hands, letting them do

0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:40.000
<v Speaker 1>the work. You know, obviously it's surrounded by talent, so

0:07:40.680 --> 0:07:44.239
<v Speaker 1>make sure we're taking care of that yeah, and Odell

0:07:44.320 --> 0:07:46.640
<v Speaker 1>got a touchdown, so everything is good. He got some

0:07:46.680 --> 0:07:50.280
<v Speaker 1>early targets here, which I said yesterday. Just get him involved,

0:07:50.520 --> 0:07:52.640
<v Speaker 1>put the ball in his hands. See what you get.

0:07:52.920 --> 0:07:55.840
<v Speaker 1>He's still explosive. I don't want to cater to him,

0:07:56.240 --> 0:07:58.440
<v Speaker 1>but I do want to get him involved early because

0:07:58.440 --> 0:08:01.559
<v Speaker 1>it feels like he could sulk a little bit. He could,

0:08:01.600 --> 0:08:04.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, go into hiding a little bit. But they

0:08:04.080 --> 0:08:06.440
<v Speaker 1>got him the ball, they ran the football, they got

0:08:06.480 --> 0:08:10.960
<v Speaker 1>the win the Bengals with a backdoor cover there. See,

0:08:11.000 --> 0:08:13.960
<v Speaker 1>that's why. That's that's the classic example of why I

0:08:13.960 --> 0:08:17.640
<v Speaker 1>don't bet. Imagine staying up until the very end, and

0:08:17.720 --> 0:08:21.000
<v Speaker 1>you know the line is six, and you got the

0:08:21.000 --> 0:08:23.800
<v Speaker 1>Bengals or you're giving six. You're you got the Browns

0:08:24.400 --> 0:08:26.760
<v Speaker 1>and the and you got the under. So you take

0:08:26.840 --> 0:08:30.480
<v Speaker 1>the Browns and the under and you lose. As Joe

0:08:30.520 --> 0:08:36.520
<v Speaker 1>Burrow backdoor cover Burrow. Um, here is Joe. After last

0:08:36.600 --> 0:08:38.760
<v Speaker 1>night's lost. This might be the only time in my

0:08:39.120 --> 0:08:41.160
<v Speaker 1>sporting career that I've lost two games in a row.

0:08:41.320 --> 0:08:44.280
<v Speaker 1>Doesn't feel very good. I know the guys in there hurting.

0:08:44.360 --> 0:08:46.559
<v Speaker 1>We're going to come back to work tomorrow and try

0:08:46.600 --> 0:08:49.080
<v Speaker 1>to get this thing right. You know, losing is unacceptable

0:08:49.320 --> 0:08:52.559
<v Speaker 1>to me, to everybody in there, to coach Taylor, to

0:08:52.559 --> 0:08:54.480
<v Speaker 1>to everybody in this organization. So we're just gonna have

0:08:54.480 --> 0:08:57.600
<v Speaker 1>to get fixed. I like what I see. They're not

0:08:57.679 --> 0:08:59.679
<v Speaker 1>a good team and they're not going to be a

0:08:59.679 --> 0:09:02.520
<v Speaker 1>good team for a while. This is where you're really

0:09:02.559 --> 0:09:05.000
<v Speaker 1>going to have to be smart when you're drafting offensive

0:09:05.040 --> 0:09:08.199
<v Speaker 1>lineman to protect Joe Burrow. And I had a scout

0:09:08.360 --> 0:09:11.560
<v Speaker 1>yesterday tell me it is so hard to be able

0:09:11.600 --> 0:09:14.360
<v Speaker 1>to determine who's going to be a good offensive lineman.

0:09:15.280 --> 0:09:17.920
<v Speaker 1>And my source said, look, we can look at quarterbacks,

0:09:18.000 --> 0:09:20.800
<v Speaker 1>running backs, wide receivers and have a better chance at

0:09:20.840 --> 0:09:23.640
<v Speaker 1>looking at somebody who will be successful because of the

0:09:23.679 --> 0:09:26.880
<v Speaker 1>blocking schemes in college. It's completely different in the NFL.

0:09:27.000 --> 0:09:29.880
<v Speaker 1>Although I will say what you saw with the Bengals

0:09:30.040 --> 0:09:32.719
<v Speaker 1>is what I saw with Carolina. With Cam Newton came in,

0:09:33.440 --> 0:09:36.239
<v Speaker 1>Carolina was smart enough to go, let's bring in Auburn's

0:09:36.320 --> 0:09:40.200
<v Speaker 1>offense to make this easier the transition for Cam Newton.

0:09:40.440 --> 0:09:42.840
<v Speaker 1>And you saw that with the Bengals. They're trying to

0:09:42.920 --> 0:09:46.600
<v Speaker 1>run LSU's offense. The only problem is you don't have

0:09:46.800 --> 0:09:52.600
<v Speaker 1>LSU's talent. There certainly at the wide receiving position. Yeah, yeah,

0:09:52.600 --> 0:09:56.560
<v Speaker 1>that's true. That's true. But yeah, bringing in that quarterback

0:09:56.679 --> 0:09:59.400
<v Speaker 1>and that system, I think you're seeing that with You're

0:09:59.400 --> 0:10:03.480
<v Speaker 1>seeing that more and more Kyler Murray, Patrick Mahomes, You're

0:10:03.520 --> 0:10:07.120
<v Speaker 1>seeing that Lamar Jackson. You're seeing that the team is

0:10:07.160 --> 0:10:09.640
<v Speaker 1>adapting to the quarterback you're bringing in instead of the

0:10:09.679 --> 0:10:11.960
<v Speaker 1>other way around. Yes, Bolly, I was looking at that

0:10:12.040 --> 0:10:14.520
<v Speaker 1>cover you talked about with the Bengals. The Bengals had

0:10:14.559 --> 0:10:18.520
<v Speaker 1>the ball and they went on a sixteen play seventy

0:10:18.520 --> 0:10:21.640
<v Speaker 1>five yard drived late in the game. They converted two

0:10:21.760 --> 0:10:25.480
<v Speaker 1>fourth downs to get that covering touchdown. If you have

0:10:25.920 --> 0:10:28.360
<v Speaker 1>oh man, that's a toughie. And then you stay up

0:10:28.360 --> 0:10:31.240
<v Speaker 1>till the very end. Imagine going to bed. So the

0:10:31.280 --> 0:10:35.840
<v Speaker 1>game ends and you lose, you lose both ways. Try

0:10:35.880 --> 0:10:39.240
<v Speaker 1>to get to bed. You know, Burrow got sacked three times,

0:10:39.240 --> 0:10:41.120
<v Speaker 1>he got hit a lot. The Bengals didn't put a

0:10:41.120 --> 0:10:45.040
<v Speaker 1>glove on Baker Mayfield. But that's a good offensive line.

0:10:45.720 --> 0:10:48.240
<v Speaker 1>You spend a high draft pick and then you brought

0:10:48.240 --> 0:10:50.880
<v Speaker 1>in Conklin as well. You know, that should be a

0:10:50.960 --> 0:10:55.120
<v Speaker 1>really good offensive line. That offense should be unstoppable. When

0:10:55.160 --> 0:10:59.160
<v Speaker 1>you think about it, good tight end, two good wide receivers,

0:10:59.520 --> 0:11:02.520
<v Speaker 1>two good running backs, a couple of good offensive linemen,

0:11:03.280 --> 0:11:06.200
<v Speaker 1>and it's up to Baker Mayfield to orchestrate this. Really,

0:11:06.240 --> 0:11:08.920
<v Speaker 1>it's up to the head coach, Kevin Stefanski. Run the

0:11:08.960 --> 0:11:11.640
<v Speaker 1>football and that's what he's known for. You're going to

0:11:11.720 --> 0:11:14.160
<v Speaker 1>run the football, and then I'm gonna have Baker just

0:11:14.280 --> 0:11:18.000
<v Speaker 1>compliment with his passing. Yes, Levin, are we in danger

0:11:18.000 --> 0:11:20.120
<v Speaker 1>of doing the same thing? Like the Browns lost to

0:11:20.160 --> 0:11:22.640
<v Speaker 1>a dominant Ravens team and we wrote them off. Are

0:11:22.679 --> 0:11:25.360
<v Speaker 1>we going to overestimate them because the Bengals defense has

0:11:25.360 --> 0:11:28.480
<v Speaker 1>been historically bad? Yes, In fact, we talked about that

0:11:28.520 --> 0:11:31.320
<v Speaker 1>before the show. They lose a game they're supposed to lose,

0:11:31.440 --> 0:11:33.320
<v Speaker 1>and then they win a game they're supposed to win.

0:11:34.360 --> 0:11:38.920
<v Speaker 1>So if the Buccaneers win this week against Carolina, is everything? Okay?

0:11:39.559 --> 0:11:43.120
<v Speaker 1>Is the relationship between Bruce arians and Tom Brady? Okay,

0:11:44.320 --> 0:11:46.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm to think of it. They better win that game.

0:11:46.760 --> 0:11:49.960
<v Speaker 1>If they don't, then we have an issue there. Yes. Also,

0:11:50.200 --> 0:11:52.920
<v Speaker 1>the Bengals have a rookie quarterback on four days of

0:11:53.080 --> 0:11:55.839
<v Speaker 1>practice and scored thirty points in the Brown Yeah, are

0:11:55.880 --> 0:11:58.200
<v Speaker 1>you worried about the deal a little bit. Yes, I

0:11:58.280 --> 0:12:02.400
<v Speaker 1>was talking to somebody yesterday, Bernie Kosar, former Brown's quarterback.

0:12:02.440 --> 0:12:05.000
<v Speaker 1>He works for the Browns, and he said, hey, what

0:12:05.040 --> 0:12:07.160
<v Speaker 1>are you thinking? He goes, Ah, I'm worry about our

0:12:07.200 --> 0:12:11.599
<v Speaker 1>defense here, and they have two good defensive players and

0:12:11.800 --> 0:12:15.000
<v Speaker 1>Miles Garrett Denzel Ward. It's just I don't think the

0:12:15.080 --> 0:12:17.840
<v Speaker 1>other nine guys are very good. And you saw that

0:12:17.960 --> 0:12:21.840
<v Speaker 1>last night. You can't have a rookie in his second

0:12:21.880 --> 0:12:26.440
<v Speaker 1>game with three days to prepare for you and he

0:12:26.640 --> 0:12:30.319
<v Speaker 1>lights you up. Now, I threw sixty one times three touchdowns,

0:12:30.320 --> 0:12:33.600
<v Speaker 1>but he did not get picked off. That would be

0:12:33.640 --> 0:12:36.600
<v Speaker 1>a big concern for me. Imagine if you're facing a

0:12:36.720 --> 0:12:41.720
<v Speaker 1>really good quarterback, experienced quarterback. What other possible pull questions? Okay,

0:12:41.720 --> 0:12:45.000
<v Speaker 1>so here the two Browns related pull questions for Poulie.

0:12:45.000 --> 0:12:46.839
<v Speaker 1>Who would you want as your team's QB? Long term?

0:12:46.840 --> 0:12:50.360
<v Speaker 1>Baker mayfielder Joe Burrow? Have we seen enough of Joe Burrow?

0:12:52.160 --> 0:12:54.880
<v Speaker 1>So if I could go, let me snap my fingers

0:12:55.200 --> 0:12:59.960
<v Speaker 1>and Joe Burrows my quarterback in Cleveland? Yep? I do that. Yeah,

0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:03.079
<v Speaker 1>I would do that. Wow, Well, like he wins a

0:13:03.120 --> 0:13:05.800
<v Speaker 1>pole eighty Twitter here's my concern though. I don't know

0:13:05.920 --> 0:13:10.360
<v Speaker 1>Baker Mayfield's mindset right now because he's very cocky and

0:13:10.679 --> 0:13:14.880
<v Speaker 1>very confident. But then it felt like, you know, he

0:13:14.960 --> 0:13:17.040
<v Speaker 1>got his legs cut out from under him last year

0:13:17.240 --> 0:13:20.120
<v Speaker 1>like that. I don't know. There's just Burrow goes to

0:13:20.120 --> 0:13:22.600
<v Speaker 1>the line of scrimmage, and you think that he thinks

0:13:22.960 --> 0:13:26.000
<v Speaker 1>he's going to do something great. Every single time. Baker,

0:13:26.040 --> 0:13:29.440
<v Speaker 1>I think, puts that that front on, like this is

0:13:29.440 --> 0:13:32.160
<v Speaker 1>how I'm supposed to act. Remember he said, Hey, I'm

0:13:32.160 --> 0:13:34.320
<v Speaker 1>not going to be demonstrative and I'm going to say anything.

0:13:34.360 --> 0:13:37.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna get in people's faces, and then people said,

0:13:37.679 --> 0:13:40.720
<v Speaker 1>why won't you be yourself out there? I don't know

0:13:40.760 --> 0:13:42.280
<v Speaker 1>if he knows who he is right now. I think

0:13:42.280 --> 0:13:44.600
<v Speaker 1>he's going to figure that out this season, for better

0:13:44.679 --> 0:13:46.960
<v Speaker 1>or for worse. But Joe Burrow goes to the line

0:13:46.960 --> 0:13:49.720
<v Speaker 1>of scrimmage knowing he does not have a good team.

0:13:50.280 --> 0:13:52.520
<v Speaker 1>Now he may say all the right things, he knows

0:13:52.559 --> 0:13:54.640
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't have a good team, but he goes a

0:13:54.720 --> 0:13:57.480
<v Speaker 1>line of scrimmage, and if I'm planning for you, that

0:13:57.640 --> 0:14:01.680
<v Speaker 1>confidence that he shows that somehow he were good and

0:14:01.720 --> 0:14:04.520
<v Speaker 1>we know we're not good. That to me was the

0:14:04.520 --> 0:14:07.920
<v Speaker 1>most impressive part of that last night, those last two drives,

0:14:09.040 --> 0:14:12.800
<v Speaker 1>and he played well against a pretty good San Diego

0:14:13.360 --> 0:14:18.760
<v Speaker 1>La Chargers defense. I mean, it's it's not murderers row here.

0:14:19.440 --> 0:14:21.360
<v Speaker 1>When you you're going to face the Ravens, then we're

0:14:21.360 --> 0:14:23.480
<v Speaker 1>gonna find out, you know a little bit more about him.

0:14:23.480 --> 0:14:27.320
<v Speaker 1>But I love composure at that position. Yeah, I'm club.

0:14:27.440 --> 0:14:29.800
<v Speaker 1>Remember how old he is though, Yeah, see twenty three.

0:14:29.920 --> 0:14:32.320
<v Speaker 1>He's well and he's older than Lamar Jackson by a month,

0:14:32.360 --> 0:14:35.360
<v Speaker 1>which is an amazing stat Yeah, all right, what other

0:14:35.360 --> 0:14:38.200
<v Speaker 1>poll questions? The other Browns? Who would you rather say?

0:14:38.200 --> 0:14:39.720
<v Speaker 1>You're the Patriots and you have a choice of these

0:14:39.720 --> 0:14:43.480
<v Speaker 1>two guys, Odell Beckham Junior or AJ Green? Now with

0:14:43.480 --> 0:14:46.440
<v Speaker 1>the caveat AJ Green's a little older. He's just turned thirtyeen.

0:14:46.440 --> 0:14:49.360
<v Speaker 1>He looks old. Yeah, but you don't have the headache

0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:54.080
<v Speaker 1>of Odell. Yeah, three catches last night, he was targeted

0:14:54.160 --> 0:14:59.080
<v Speaker 1>thirteen times. I guess I would take Odell because Belichick

0:14:59.160 --> 0:15:01.720
<v Speaker 1>has a track record of keeping everybody kind of on

0:15:01.760 --> 0:15:05.680
<v Speaker 1>the same page there and the possibility of having a

0:15:05.800 --> 0:15:09.800
<v Speaker 1>home run threat, and he is still a home run threat,

0:15:09.920 --> 0:15:12.200
<v Speaker 1>So I would I would take a chance on Odell.

0:15:13.800 --> 0:15:16.240
<v Speaker 1>But that's just because I don't have confidence in aj

0:15:16.360 --> 0:15:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Green being an elite wide receiver anymore any more. Overreactions

0:15:21.000 --> 0:15:23.680
<v Speaker 1>week Okay, who are we ripping on? Who? That one?

0:15:23.880 --> 0:15:27.280
<v Speaker 1>In Week one? Are we ripping the shreds on Monday? Okay?

0:15:27.440 --> 0:15:30.720
<v Speaker 1>Green Bay Packers? Who hosts the Lions? David, that's a

0:15:30.760 --> 0:15:32.600
<v Speaker 1>big spread. I would think green Bay might be safe.

0:15:32.720 --> 0:15:36.880
<v Speaker 1>They should, They should. Tennessee is hosting Jacksonville, so that's

0:15:38.120 --> 0:15:39.720
<v Speaker 1>we don't even talk about. There's no way they're to

0:15:39.800 --> 0:15:43.000
<v Speaker 1>lead on Monday, right, win or lose. If Tennessee loses

0:15:43.040 --> 0:15:48.160
<v Speaker 1>to Jacksonville, I mean that would be a big surprise. Yeah.

0:15:48.400 --> 0:15:50.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if we lead with that, because well

0:15:50.920 --> 0:15:52.720
<v Speaker 1>we have to follow everybody else. We have to lead

0:15:52.720 --> 0:15:55.240
<v Speaker 1>with the Cowboys because the Cowboys play the Falcons, right,

0:15:55.320 --> 0:15:58.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm only doing one in Week one? The Rams go

0:15:58.480 --> 0:16:00.240
<v Speaker 1>to the Eagles. If they lost, with that be a

0:16:00.240 --> 0:16:02.600
<v Speaker 1>big deal or it's a cross country Yeah, I wouldn't

0:16:02.600 --> 0:16:05.200
<v Speaker 1>be a big deal. Okay, Pittsburgh host Denver, if they lost,

0:16:05.240 --> 0:16:10.240
<v Speaker 1>big deal a little bit. But that's only because I'm

0:16:10.360 --> 0:16:13.080
<v Speaker 1>fascinated with the Steelers this year. I think if New

0:16:13.120 --> 0:16:17.160
<v Speaker 1>England goes to Seattle and Seattle loses, that might be

0:16:17.200 --> 0:16:20.040
<v Speaker 1>more of a big deal that just from the Patriots

0:16:20.080 --> 0:16:22.760
<v Speaker 1>stand standpoint? What if New England loses? Is that a

0:16:22.760 --> 0:16:25.200
<v Speaker 1>big deal? Do we start to know? I don't expect

0:16:25.240 --> 0:16:27.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't expect them to win. You know how people are,

0:16:27.360 --> 0:16:30.560
<v Speaker 1>especially with Cam, they like to I just want to

0:16:30.560 --> 0:16:33.600
<v Speaker 1>know how he plays, Like what is the game plan

0:16:33.720 --> 0:16:37.160
<v Speaker 1>for Cam Newton? And we can ask Russell Wilson when

0:16:37.160 --> 0:16:38.720
<v Speaker 1>he joins us next Honor, Hey, what do you think

0:16:38.720 --> 0:16:40.760
<v Speaker 1>the Patriots are going to do? Hey? How are you

0:16:40.960 --> 0:16:43.200
<v Speaker 1>preparing for the Patriots? He'll of course tell us yes.

0:16:43.480 --> 0:16:46.800
<v Speaker 1>One more, what's the fallout Saints Raiders? Do we really

0:16:46.840 --> 0:16:48.560
<v Speaker 1>dig in on either of those teams? It's at at

0:16:48.680 --> 0:16:52.560
<v Speaker 1>Las Vegas. No, Like if the Raiders, if they win,

0:16:52.560 --> 0:16:54.880
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't be surprised. Oh, it wouldn't be like sky

0:16:55.000 --> 0:16:57.160
<v Speaker 1>is falling for the Saints to lose that game like that. No,

0:16:57.240 --> 0:17:00.400
<v Speaker 1>they just beat Tampa Bay. I mean, I think the

0:17:00.480 --> 0:17:03.120
<v Speaker 1>Raiders are a good team. I think they are a

0:17:03.240 --> 0:17:06.040
<v Speaker 1>good team. And I'm gonna say great, but they're a

0:17:06.040 --> 0:17:08.680
<v Speaker 1>good team. I think that that potential there. We'll talk

0:17:08.680 --> 0:17:10.640

0:17:10.960 --> 0:17:14.119
<v Speaker 1>up two oh and the Celtics and another meltdown with

0:17:14.200 --> 0:17:18.719
<v Speaker 1>Boston and I guess there was some things thrown and

0:17:18.840 --> 0:17:22.120
<v Speaker 1>said in the Celtics locker room after a game. It happens,

0:17:22.800 --> 0:17:25.400
<v Speaker 1>but the heat go up two oh on the Celtics.

0:17:25.440 --> 0:17:27.840
<v Speaker 1>The Lakers and Nuggets game one coming up tonight, so

<v Speaker 1>be football in the PAC twelve in the fall, and

0:19:16.320 --> 0:19:19.200
<v Speaker 1>if there is? From what I'm told, the PAC twelve

0:19:19.400 --> 0:19:23.240
<v Speaker 1>knows they probably won't be involved in the playoffs. The

0:19:23.800 --> 0:19:26.119
<v Speaker 1>possibility of getting into the playoffs. I don't know the

0:19:26.280 --> 0:19:28.480
<v Speaker 1>quality of teams in the Pac twelve right now. I

0:19:28.520 --> 0:19:31.320
<v Speaker 1>don't know if anybody does, but this late start will

0:19:31.320 --> 0:19:35.840
<v Speaker 1>probably preclude them from being involved in the Final four,

0:19:36.000 --> 0:19:38.600
<v Speaker 1>or at least that selection process. This program brought to

<v Speaker 1>Mercedes AMG Man Cave Mercedes AMG Driving Performance. By the way,

0:20:00.280 --> 0:20:05.320
<v Speaker 1>have some information here from my college football source. Let's

0:20:05.400 --> 0:20:09.199
<v Speaker 1>see Big Ten met to reach a consensus, and my

0:20:09.280 --> 0:20:11.960
<v Speaker 1>source was very skeptical that they had enough to turn

0:20:12.000 --> 0:20:15.560
<v Speaker 1>it around. Coaches wanted October tenth, that was the target date.

0:20:15.600 --> 0:20:18.879
<v Speaker 1>I told you, Athletic directors wanted October seventeenth. In the

0:20:18.880 --> 0:20:22.400
<v Speaker 1>Big Ten, presidents pushed to the last possible date, October

0:20:22.440 --> 0:20:26.040
<v Speaker 1>twenty fourth. My source then goes, I laugh when people

0:20:26.119 --> 0:20:28.960
<v Speaker 1>say the Big Ten handles this better than anyone else.

0:20:29.440 --> 0:20:31.719
<v Speaker 1>SEC has had a plan from the start, same as

0:20:31.760 --> 0:20:36.360
<v Speaker 1>the ACC. Everyone has cardio protocols in place. Testing every

0:20:36.400 --> 0:20:38.800
<v Speaker 1>day is good, but that doesn't solve the issues of

0:20:38.920 --> 0:20:42.720
<v Speaker 1>kids being kids when they get exposed on and off campus.

0:20:43.119 --> 0:20:45.199
<v Speaker 1>It goes on to say, there's a great deal of

0:20:45.280 --> 0:20:48.520
<v Speaker 1>trial and error, and the likelihood of these big state

0:20:48.680 --> 0:20:52.359
<v Speaker 1>schools going nine for nine in playing nine games and

0:20:52.440 --> 0:20:55.240
<v Speaker 1>nine weeks is very low. So that's the information I

0:20:55.320 --> 0:20:58.560
<v Speaker 1>have from the Big Ten. Not to be Danny Downer,

0:20:58.840 --> 0:21:01.560
<v Speaker 1>just given you the reality of what I'm being told.

0:21:01.720 --> 0:21:04.040
<v Speaker 1>But we'll talk to the commissioner of the PAC twelve.

0:21:04.080 --> 0:21:06.560
<v Speaker 1>He'll join us in about five minutes. In case you're wondering,

0:21:06.560 --> 0:21:09.480
<v Speaker 1>it is a Tragger Meat Friday and we have ribbed

0:21:09.520 --> 0:21:14.360
<v Speaker 1>sandwiches and meat ball palm grinders that'll be coming up

0:21:14.359 --> 0:21:16.320
<v Speaker 1>in the final hour of the show. Yes, pol do

0:21:16.359 --> 0:21:17.880
<v Speaker 1>you hear what they're doing with the ribs? So he's

0:21:18.200 --> 0:21:23.480
<v Speaker 1>our guy, Allen's making barbecue ribs, taking the bone out

0:21:23.720 --> 0:21:27.720
<v Speaker 1>and making big, huge barbecue ribs sandwiches. Yeah, genius, I'm

0:21:27.720 --> 0:21:31.159
<v Speaker 1>ready in the final hour. Mclevan, let's settle on a

0:21:31.200 --> 0:21:33.480
<v Speaker 1>poll question I actually popped up, who would you rather

0:21:33.480 --> 0:21:35.680
<v Speaker 1>start a team with Baker Mayfield or Joe Burrow? Just

0:21:35.800 --> 0:21:40.280
<v Speaker 1>see what people say a little click Yeah, it's have

0:21:40.359 --> 0:21:42.800
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of clickbait. But let's guess. Let's guess

0:21:42.800 --> 0:21:46.600
<v Speaker 1>the percentage here. I'd say eight eighty five, Okay, I

0:21:46.720 --> 0:21:51.000
<v Speaker 1>was gonna go seventy eight percent. Joe Burrow, Yes, pa

0:21:51.320 --> 0:21:54.880
<v Speaker 1>seventy two percent. Okay. It's a known versus the unknown.

0:21:55.080 --> 0:21:58.320
<v Speaker 1>People love, we love that. But I do think you've

0:21:58.359 --> 0:22:01.600
<v Speaker 1>seen enough Burrow coming off the greatest single season of

0:22:01.760 --> 0:22:04.879
<v Speaker 1>quarterbacks has ever had. But he's playing for the Bengals,

0:22:05.600 --> 0:22:08.040
<v Speaker 1>and I just wondered, you know, how much would they

0:22:08.040 --> 0:22:10.520
<v Speaker 1>expose him? How much would they put him out there

0:22:10.560 --> 0:22:12.720
<v Speaker 1>and let him sort of do what he did at LSU?

0:22:12.800 --> 0:22:15.400
<v Speaker 1>And then we saw it last night, sixty one passes.

0:22:16.160 --> 0:22:19.399
<v Speaker 1>How many times does that happen this early for a

0:22:19.480 --> 0:22:23.399
<v Speaker 1>rookie quarterback? And I don't know. They said last night

0:22:23.440 --> 0:22:25.560
<v Speaker 1>the only other guy was Chris Winky, of all people,

0:22:25.720 --> 0:22:28.440
<v Speaker 1>who was also anciently old by the time he started. Yeah,

0:22:28.480 --> 0:22:31.040
<v Speaker 1>he was probably like thirty one. Yes, see a new

0:22:31.040 --> 0:22:35.560
<v Speaker 1>pole question. How long before Joe Barrow's armfall off or

0:22:35.640 --> 0:22:38.760
<v Speaker 1>something on his body because he's gonna get hit. He

0:22:38.840 --> 0:22:41.080
<v Speaker 1>only had three hundred and fifteen yards. He wasn't exactly

0:22:41.200 --> 0:22:43.320
<v Speaker 1>bombing it down the field. Well, but that's gonna be

0:22:43.359 --> 0:22:46.639
<v Speaker 1>their offense because I look, Joe Mixon to me is

0:22:46.720 --> 0:22:48.880
<v Speaker 1>a good running back. He's not a great running back.

0:22:48.880 --> 0:22:51.080
<v Speaker 1>It feels like I can find a Joe Mixon in

0:22:51.119 --> 0:22:55.360
<v Speaker 1>every draft or two. But are you gonna be able

0:22:55.359 --> 0:22:57.600
<v Speaker 1>to run the football? Like your running game might be

0:22:57.680 --> 0:23:01.320
<v Speaker 1>short passes? You know, that's probably what the philosophy is

0:23:01.359 --> 0:23:03.280
<v Speaker 1>going to be, and you're gonna have to do it.

0:23:03.359 --> 0:23:05.679
<v Speaker 1>So Burrow is not getting hit as many times as

0:23:05.720 --> 0:23:08.199
<v Speaker 1>he got hit last night, and Baker Mayfield didn't get

0:23:08.280 --> 0:23:11.880
<v Speaker 1>hit once, didn't get touched once last night. Let me see,

0:23:12.040 --> 0:23:13.879
<v Speaker 1>let me go to skip in Texas High Skip. What

0:23:13.920 --> 0:23:16.520
<v Speaker 1>do you have for me today? Well? A lot? What

0:23:16.680 --> 0:23:20.960
<v Speaker 1>you just said? Um, can you hear me? Yes? I

0:23:21.000 --> 0:23:24.680
<v Speaker 1>can skip? Okay, A lot? What you just said? Hey,

0:23:24.680 --> 0:23:31.600
<v Speaker 1>budd The what what Joe did during the first half

0:23:31.760 --> 0:23:36.600
<v Speaker 1>was being praised by by Joe Buck and Troy Aikman,

0:23:37.040 --> 0:23:42.879
<v Speaker 1>and during the second half he was being ridiculed, But

0:23:42.960 --> 0:23:45.479
<v Speaker 1>at the same time they stopped running the football. It was.

0:23:45.600 --> 0:23:49.880
<v Speaker 1>It was what you said that Baker Mayfield needed to have.

0:23:50.000 --> 0:23:52.359
<v Speaker 1>He needed to have playoffs to pass, He needs to

0:23:52.440 --> 0:23:55.040
<v Speaker 1>have running back that moved the ball down the field.

0:23:55.280 --> 0:23:59.480
<v Speaker 1>They couldn't get any yardage. Yeah, but and thank you

0:23:59.560 --> 0:24:03.679
<v Speaker 1>skip the Cleveland Browns have a good offensive line and

0:24:03.760 --> 0:24:07.480
<v Speaker 1>they have two really good running backs. So why wouldn't

0:24:07.480 --> 0:24:12.480
<v Speaker 1>you run the football more than you pass. Seattle does

0:24:12.480 --> 0:24:15.560
<v Speaker 1>that with Russell Wilson, and Russell Wilson is a whole

0:24:15.600 --> 0:24:19.359
<v Speaker 1>lot better than Baker Mayfield and they still run the football.

0:24:19.359 --> 0:24:23.040
<v Speaker 1>Thank you, Pollie. This just in Russell Wilson better than

0:24:23.080 --> 0:24:26.120
<v Speaker 1>Baker Mayfield. But it's one game. They beat a team

0:24:26.160 --> 0:24:28.920
<v Speaker 1>they were supposed to beat. I just wanted to see

0:24:29.200 --> 0:24:33.480
<v Speaker 1>more of a challenger a game in their first week

0:24:33.480 --> 0:24:36.520
<v Speaker 1>opponent with Baltimore, and that they didn't look like they

0:24:36.560 --> 0:24:39.920
<v Speaker 1>belonged on the same field. Last night you beat a

0:24:40.119 --> 0:24:43.280
<v Speaker 1>Bengals team you were supposed to beat, and Cincinnati made

0:24:43.280 --> 0:24:46.720
<v Speaker 1>it looked interesting there at the very end curtain Florida

0:24:46.800 --> 0:24:50.040
<v Speaker 1>joins us Hi, Kurt, what do you have for me today? Hey? Dan?

0:24:50.160 --> 0:24:55.479
<v Speaker 1>How are you doing today with great what's on your mind? Well,

0:24:55.520 --> 0:24:58.560
<v Speaker 1>first off, I haven't paid off that bet that I

0:24:58.600 --> 0:25:02.359
<v Speaker 1>made to you yet said I would do a shower

0:25:02.359 --> 0:25:07.399
<v Speaker 1>of shame with Skyline Chili if the Browns didn't make

0:25:07.400 --> 0:25:11.280
<v Speaker 1>the playoffs last year, which they obviously did not. And

0:25:12.040 --> 0:25:15.040
<v Speaker 1>after last night's game, I figured it would be a

0:25:15.040 --> 0:25:18.720
<v Speaker 1>good time to call in and let you know that

0:25:21.920 --> 0:25:24.359
<v Speaker 1>even though I'm in Florida now, I do have the

0:25:24.359 --> 0:25:27.520
<v Speaker 1>Internet so I can order a can of Skyline Chili.

0:25:28.119 --> 0:25:31.119
<v Speaker 1>I have a Baker Mayfield jersey, which is one of

0:25:31.119 --> 0:25:35.080
<v Speaker 1>the horrible ones that they wore for the last couple

0:25:35.119 --> 0:25:39.399
<v Speaker 1>of seasons, and I don't care to damage. And I'm

0:25:39.440 --> 0:25:43.560
<v Speaker 1>going to order a CANi Skyline Chili off the Internet

0:25:43.720 --> 0:25:46.160
<v Speaker 1>and have it sent to me here in Naples, and

0:25:46.480 --> 0:25:51.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to dump it on myself and pay off

0:25:51.480 --> 0:25:54.200
<v Speaker 1>my bat to you. All Right, Well, that sounds good.

0:25:54.359 --> 0:25:56.880
<v Speaker 1>You could have paid it off earlier in the year,

0:25:56.960 --> 0:25:59.960
<v Speaker 1>but you know season's been over for Walkert. But video

0:26:00.119 --> 0:26:02.960
<v Speaker 1>chape that and pour the Skyline Chili over your head

0:26:02.960 --> 0:26:04.760
<v Speaker 1>there for the shower of shame. Yes, point as a

0:26:04.880 --> 0:26:07.200
<v Speaker 1>penalty for the delay and paying off the bet. Maybe

0:26:07.000 --> 0:26:09.800
<v Speaker 1>since he's in Naples, he could pour the Chilian himself

0:26:09.840 --> 0:26:11.920
<v Speaker 1>then roll in the sand at the lovely Naples Beach.

0:26:12.480 --> 0:26:17.000
<v Speaker 1>That wouldn't I don't want to overpunish him. I mean,

0:26:17.000 --> 0:26:20.960
<v Speaker 1>he's a Browns fan. Hasn't he already been over punished here?

0:26:21.320 --> 0:26:23.120
<v Speaker 1>But they picked up the wind last night and that's

0:26:23.280 --> 0:26:27.120
<v Speaker 1>all that matters. Here was another poll question we were

0:26:27.119 --> 0:26:30.719
<v Speaker 1>talking about who should be nervous for their job, Doc Rivers,

0:26:31.160 --> 0:26:36.040
<v Speaker 1>Brad Stevens or neither. Brad Stevens shouldn't be nervous. Doc's

0:26:36.040 --> 0:26:38.439
<v Speaker 1>going to be brought back, so I would say neither

0:26:38.640 --> 0:26:43.840
<v Speaker 1>right now. But if the Celtics get swept, I don't know.

0:26:43.880 --> 0:26:46.639
<v Speaker 1>It feels like Brad Stevens is pretty secure there, but

0:26:47.240 --> 0:26:50.560
<v Speaker 1>Doc Rivers, I guess it sounds like he is coming back.

0:26:51.880 --> 0:26:54.680
<v Speaker 1>Is a commissioner with US, Tom, Yes, he's a Larry

0:26:54.680 --> 0:26:57.919
<v Speaker 1>Scott PAC twelfth commissioner joining us early good morning commissioner

0:26:58.320 --> 0:27:01.200
<v Speaker 1>as of this morning. Where do we and with football

0:27:01.200 --> 0:27:05.560
<v Speaker 1>in the fall? With PAC twelve, We've had a lot

0:27:05.560 --> 0:27:08.760
<v Speaker 1>of progress over the last day or two, especially with

0:27:08.840 --> 0:27:13.479
<v Speaker 1>public health officials in California and Oregon. And this on

0:27:13.520 --> 0:27:16.560
<v Speaker 1>the heels of the deal we did with the Quai Dell,

0:27:16.640 --> 0:27:21.280
<v Speaker 1>which gives us access to daily testing with rapid results.

0:27:22.160 --> 0:27:24.840
<v Speaker 1>Things brought us a long way. So our Medical Advisory

0:27:24.880 --> 0:27:27.840
<v Speaker 1>Committee is much more comfortable with us going forward, and

0:27:27.880 --> 0:27:30.359
<v Speaker 1>it looks like the hurdles have been cleared in terms

0:27:30.400 --> 0:27:34.320
<v Speaker 1>of the public health authorities in the states of California

0:27:34.440 --> 0:27:36.800
<v Speaker 1>and Oregon. So things are looking a lot more promising.

0:27:37.000 --> 0:27:39.560
<v Speaker 1>So I've got a call today with our presidents and chancellors.

0:27:39.720 --> 0:27:41.760
<v Speaker 1>We're going to take stock of where we are and

0:27:41.800 --> 0:27:44.760
<v Speaker 1>see if we're comfortable with a path forward before January first,

0:27:44.800 --> 0:27:47.200
<v Speaker 1>which was what our previous decision was, and we'll see

0:27:47.200 --> 0:27:49.440
<v Speaker 1>if we can align with others in college football still

0:27:49.480 --> 0:27:52.600
<v Speaker 1>this fall. Will there be a vote today when you

0:27:52.680 --> 0:27:55.520
<v Speaker 1>talk to these presidents. I'm not expecting to vote today.

0:27:55.520 --> 0:27:57.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to push for one today. I mean,

0:27:57.600 --> 0:28:01.879
<v Speaker 1>this has been a rapidly developing series of events. Yesterday

0:28:02.000 --> 0:28:05.240
<v Speaker 1>was pretty crazy, from a call I got from Governor

0:28:05.320 --> 0:28:09.520
<v Speaker 1>Newsom in the morning to meetings folks from Morgan, Oregon

0:28:09.560 --> 0:28:12.919
<v Speaker 1>State had with their governor that day. So, yeah, we

0:28:13.000 --> 0:28:15.360
<v Speaker 1>need to get folks that lead our campus as a

0:28:15.440 --> 0:28:18.960
<v Speaker 1>chance to digest all this take into account everything going

0:28:19.000 --> 0:28:22.680
<v Speaker 1>on on their campuses. But we also realize that if

0:28:22.680 --> 0:28:27.520
<v Speaker 1>we're going to move forward this fall with football, where

0:28:27.520 --> 0:28:29.800
<v Speaker 1>we need a six week ramp up for US two

0:28:29.880 --> 0:28:33.600
<v Speaker 1>athletes in California. They haven't been in the gym, they

0:28:33.640 --> 0:28:35.920
<v Speaker 1>haven't been they haven't been on a field, so any

0:28:35.960 --> 0:28:38.960
<v Speaker 1>these weeks and then this basketball too, which the NCA

0:28:39.080 --> 0:28:42.600
<v Speaker 1>just decided on Wednesday, is going to start November twenty fifth,

0:28:42.680 --> 0:28:44.960
<v Speaker 1>So we've got to figure out with both those that

0:28:45.080 --> 0:28:47.520
<v Speaker 1>were come from moving forward what I was told yesterday,

0:28:47.560 --> 0:28:50.600
<v Speaker 1>and you obviously can correct me if you need to that.

0:28:50.960 --> 0:28:53.520
<v Speaker 1>If you're looking at a date, it'd be probably around

0:28:53.600 --> 0:28:58.920
<v Speaker 1>Halloween that the first game in the back twelve. So

0:28:58.960 --> 0:29:01.200
<v Speaker 1>if we're going to move forward, depends on how quickly

0:29:01.760 --> 0:29:05.040
<v Speaker 1>we can get back to practice. You know, six weeks

0:29:05.040 --> 0:29:08.440
<v Speaker 1>would be from Monday, but we're only getting these rapid

0:29:08.480 --> 0:29:10.239
<v Speaker 1>tests next week, so I think that would be the

0:29:10.280 --> 0:29:14.960
<v Speaker 1>most ambitious. Maybe maybe a week or two too quick

0:29:15.040 --> 0:29:17.160
<v Speaker 1>for us. But somewhere in that zip code is where

0:29:17.200 --> 0:29:19.840
<v Speaker 1>we'd be playing if we're playing. But also it's going

0:29:19.880 --> 0:29:23.800
<v Speaker 1>to preclude you, I think, from being qualifying for the

0:29:23.840 --> 0:29:28.440
<v Speaker 1>playoff the final four. Right well, if we were to

0:29:28.480 --> 0:29:32.320
<v Speaker 1>play this fall, I don't think anyone could predict. I

0:29:32.160 --> 0:29:34.200
<v Speaker 1>was I was on the call of my fellow commissioners,

0:29:34.280 --> 0:29:36.360
<v Speaker 1>and you know, we've got a board of the college

0:29:36.360 --> 0:29:38.520
<v Speaker 1>football playoff. I don't think if you ask any of

0:29:38.520 --> 0:29:40.680
<v Speaker 1>my fellow commissioners they can tell you how many games

0:29:40.680 --> 0:29:42.720
<v Speaker 1>their teams are going to play. They know what they're

0:29:42.720 --> 0:29:44.480
<v Speaker 1>going to try to play. But we've already seen in

0:29:44.520 --> 0:29:46.800
<v Speaker 1>the first two weeks every league that's tried to play

0:29:46.920 --> 0:29:50.160
<v Speaker 1>has had the postpone games. So no one's feeling supremely

0:29:50.200 --> 0:29:53.000
<v Speaker 1>confident at this point, especially those have done in daily

0:29:53.080 --> 0:29:56.320
<v Speaker 1>tests that they're all their team's going to play every game.

0:29:56.400 --> 0:29:58.800
<v Speaker 1>So I think, you know, it's uncharted territory. We don't

0:29:58.800 --> 0:30:01.520
<v Speaker 1>know how many games each league is going to play.

0:30:01.600 --> 0:30:04.120
<v Speaker 1>There are going to be many more differences than we're

0:30:04.160 --> 0:30:07.040
<v Speaker 1>normally used to, and I don't know you know whether

0:30:07.160 --> 0:30:09.560
<v Speaker 1>the average is going to be six games or eight games.

0:30:09.600 --> 0:30:11.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't think anyone can tell you. We don't know

0:30:11.080 --> 0:30:13.920
<v Speaker 1>a player availability's going to be, and the committee is

0:30:13.920 --> 0:30:15.240
<v Speaker 1>going to have the work cut out from there. Gonna

0:30:15.240 --> 0:30:17.240
<v Speaker 1>be a lot more subjectivity this year than the best

0:30:17.400 --> 0:30:20.440
<v Speaker 1>I would not rule anything out. So more likely to

0:30:20.520 --> 0:30:22.680
<v Speaker 1>play in the fall than the spring. Because last time

0:30:22.680 --> 0:30:24.920
<v Speaker 1>we had you on a couple of weeks ago, you said,

0:30:25.160 --> 0:30:28.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, we're targeting the spring or right after your

0:30:29.080 --> 0:30:32.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, January, more likely fall football than spring football.

0:30:33.800 --> 0:30:36.680
<v Speaker 1>I'd say at this stage it's promising. You know, we've

0:30:37.840 --> 0:30:40.240
<v Speaker 1>it's amazing how much has happened in the last five

0:30:40.280 --> 0:30:43.160
<v Speaker 1>weeks since we made our decision. And the good news is,

0:30:43.440 --> 0:30:45.719
<v Speaker 1>you know, we got access to the kind of testing

0:30:45.720 --> 0:30:49.640
<v Speaker 1>our medical folks required sooner than we thought. We've gotten

0:30:49.640 --> 0:30:54.520
<v Speaker 1>public health authority approval, uh, you know, quickly, earlier than

0:30:54.600 --> 0:30:56.680
<v Speaker 1>we thought. And so we've tried. We've tried to do

0:30:56.680 --> 0:30:58.440
<v Speaker 1>a couple of things then, and I've appreciate a chance

0:30:58.480 --> 0:31:00.840
<v Speaker 1>to talk here. We tried to be transferent about what

0:31:00.880 --> 0:31:04.959
<v Speaker 1>we're doing, deliberate health and safety first, but at same time,

0:31:05.000 --> 0:31:06.800
<v Speaker 1>our student, if it's want to play, and our coach

0:31:06.840 --> 0:31:09.120
<v Speaker 1>want to play, our fans want to play. So we've

0:31:09.120 --> 0:31:11.920
<v Speaker 1>been committed to explore every possibility to do so when

0:31:12.200 --> 0:31:15.200
<v Speaker 1>we felt it was safe and we had appropriate approval.

0:31:15.240 --> 0:31:18.720
<v Speaker 1>So we're trying to be nimble and flexible too. And

0:31:19.760 --> 0:31:21.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, our president's chancellors have been that too, and

0:31:21.760 --> 0:31:24.360
<v Speaker 1>that's why they're convening on a call real time to

0:31:24.480 --> 0:31:26.960
<v Speaker 1>address this new information. And yeah, if we if we

0:31:27.000 --> 0:31:29.480
<v Speaker 1>can provide an opportunity for our student athletes to play

0:31:29.920 --> 0:31:31.960
<v Speaker 1>as soon as it's safe. They want to play, and

0:31:32.040 --> 0:31:34.160
<v Speaker 1>we owe them that if we can do it. You

0:31:34.160 --> 0:31:37.120
<v Speaker 1>think you'll know by monday if you're playing. We have

0:31:37.160 --> 0:31:40.480
<v Speaker 1>to decide, you know, by next week. If we're moving forward,

0:31:40.520 --> 0:31:43.840
<v Speaker 1>you have a target date. Not yet, No, you know,

0:31:43.880 --> 0:31:47.120
<v Speaker 1>I need to This has been a rapidly escalating series

0:31:47.120 --> 0:31:50.640
<v Speaker 1>of events over the last twenty four hours, and I

0:31:50.720 --> 0:31:52.720
<v Speaker 1>need to see where my presidents and chancellors are, which

0:31:52.720 --> 0:31:55.640
<v Speaker 1>I'll know later today. But what changed? Is it just

0:31:55.720 --> 0:31:58.920
<v Speaker 1>the rapid testing, like the approval of the governors of

0:31:59.080 --> 0:32:04.640
<v Speaker 1>Oregon and Alifornia. For US, the game changer was being

0:32:04.720 --> 0:32:08.200
<v Speaker 1>the first conference to get access to daily testing, and

0:32:08.200 --> 0:32:11.000
<v Speaker 1>those tests are being shipped to us on Monday, with

0:32:11.040 --> 0:32:14.120
<v Speaker 1>the machines and the readers. And the reason for that

0:32:14.400 --> 0:32:17.040
<v Speaker 1>is our medical advisors, you know, that concerns about heart

0:32:17.440 --> 0:32:21.160
<v Speaker 1>the prevalence of the spread of the virus, and they

0:32:22.080 --> 0:32:25.680
<v Speaker 1>didn't feel comfortable playing the sport of football or basketball

0:32:25.760 --> 0:32:29.200
<v Speaker 1>for that matter, if they thought, you know, the practice

0:32:29.280 --> 0:32:31.360
<v Speaker 1>or the games could lead to the spread of the

0:32:31.480 --> 0:32:34.600
<v Speaker 1>vices beyond what people might get in their communities. Or

0:32:34.720 --> 0:32:37.240
<v Speaker 1>the dining halls or in their dorms or whatever. The

0:32:37.360 --> 0:32:40.920
<v Speaker 1>act of playing football or basketball couldn't lead to the spread,

0:32:41.400 --> 0:32:44.800
<v Speaker 1>and getting access to daily testing gives a hydrary confidence

0:32:44.840 --> 0:32:46.200
<v Speaker 1>that's not going to happen. So that was the game

0:32:46.280 --> 0:32:48.200
<v Speaker 1>changer for us, and I think it was a game

0:32:48.280 --> 0:32:51.440
<v Speaker 1>changer for the public health officials, which was the second

0:32:51.480 --> 0:32:55.640
<v Speaker 1>major saying that just happened within the last twenty thirty

0:32:55.640 --> 0:32:59.200
<v Speaker 1>six hours. Is it everybody has to play or nobody

0:32:59.240 --> 0:33:04.240
<v Speaker 1>plays in the PAC twelve m up? Till now, we've

0:33:04.240 --> 0:33:06.960
<v Speaker 1>been completely unified in our approach, and I expect that

0:33:07.000 --> 0:33:09.640
<v Speaker 1>will continue to be the case. Last time we talked,

0:33:09.640 --> 0:33:13.560
<v Speaker 1>and I'm paraphrasing, but it felt like you were saying

0:33:13.600 --> 0:33:16.320
<v Speaker 1>that the Big twelve and the ACC and SEC were

0:33:16.320 --> 0:33:19.760
<v Speaker 1>being a little more reckless. You were being very overly cautious,

0:33:20.080 --> 0:33:22.440
<v Speaker 1>and so was the Big ten. Do you still feel

0:33:22.480 --> 0:33:25.600
<v Speaker 1>that way? Well, I doubt I ever used the word

0:33:25.640 --> 0:33:31.520
<v Speaker 1>reckless with my peers. They That's why I was paraphrasing there.

0:33:31.560 --> 0:33:34.480
<v Speaker 1>But you were, you were. You sent a message there,

0:33:34.560 --> 0:33:38.040
<v Speaker 1>whether you intended to or not. Fair enough, though, I

0:33:38.040 --> 0:33:39.720
<v Speaker 1>think what I was trying to suggest is we have

0:33:39.840 --> 0:33:43.680
<v Speaker 1>been more cautious, and I think, you know, the values

0:33:44.200 --> 0:33:47.400
<v Speaker 1>in every part of the country are a little bit different,

0:33:47.840 --> 0:33:51.560
<v Speaker 1>the priorities and the pressures that people feel. And I

0:33:51.600 --> 0:33:54.080
<v Speaker 1>think our league into something I'm proud of with our

0:33:54.120 --> 0:33:56.320
<v Speaker 1>schools have wanted to error if they were going to

0:33:56.480 --> 0:33:59.680
<v Speaker 1>error on the side of safety, health and safety and

0:33:59.680 --> 0:34:01.880
<v Speaker 1>wealth or the student athletes, even if it would come

0:34:01.880 --> 0:34:08.840
<v Speaker 1>at a significant cost TV revenue, attendance, etc. And people

0:34:08.880 --> 0:34:11.080
<v Speaker 1>want to play. And we drew the line in the

0:34:11.120 --> 0:34:13.400
<v Speaker 1>same who weren't going to do it unless our medical

0:34:13.400 --> 0:34:16.680
<v Speaker 1>advisors were very confident and comfortable, And of course we

0:34:16.719 --> 0:34:20.040
<v Speaker 1>need public health authority approvals, And different leagues made different decisions,

0:34:20.040 --> 0:34:22.319
<v Speaker 1>But you know, I've tried to be careful not to

0:34:22.400 --> 0:34:26.080
<v Speaker 1>cast judgment on anyone else's decision making. I just like

0:34:26.160 --> 0:34:29.080
<v Speaker 1>to talk about the values we've had, which have been

0:34:29.120 --> 0:34:31.080
<v Speaker 1>more conservative and causes and I think on our show

0:34:31.239 --> 0:34:33.759
<v Speaker 1>before we talked about that's a microcosm of what's going

0:34:33.800 --> 0:34:37.560
<v Speaker 1>on in society too. Yeah, but you know, I'm just

0:34:37.840 --> 0:34:40.600
<v Speaker 1>trying to figure this out. With your role, when you

0:34:40.640 --> 0:34:43.799
<v Speaker 1>get the presidents on the phone, do you advise them, like,

0:34:43.920 --> 0:34:45.960
<v Speaker 1>do you say this is what I want to do

0:34:46.200 --> 0:34:48.799
<v Speaker 1>or is it. You guys, tell me what you want

0:34:48.840 --> 0:34:52.279
<v Speaker 1>to do. You know, it's a it's a combination of

0:34:52.320 --> 0:34:56.279
<v Speaker 1>those things. You know. My job is to reflect and

0:34:56.360 --> 0:34:58.600
<v Speaker 1>carry out what our twelve schools ultimately want to do.

0:34:58.640 --> 0:35:03.200
<v Speaker 1>But they rely on me to do the legwork, bring

0:35:03.239 --> 0:35:05.799
<v Speaker 1>them the facts and make a recommendation. That's what I'll do.

0:35:06.239 --> 0:35:09.680
<v Speaker 1>And your recommendation is to play football in the fall. Oh,

0:35:09.719 --> 0:35:13.920
<v Speaker 1>they're going to hear my recommendation first. Your recommendation is

0:35:13.960 --> 0:35:17.000
<v Speaker 1>to play football in the fall. We we we've overcome

0:35:17.600 --> 0:35:21.600
<v Speaker 1>the major obstacles that we had and the criteria that

0:35:21.680 --> 0:35:25.520
<v Speaker 1>our medical advisors set with the Public Health Authority approvals

0:35:25.800 --> 0:35:28.080
<v Speaker 1>and now but you know, our presence chances have to

0:35:28.120 --> 0:35:31.080
<v Speaker 1>weigh the issues on their campsis they'll be the ultimate

0:35:31.080 --> 0:35:33.480
<v Speaker 1>decision bakers. But in terms of the metrics and the

0:35:33.480 --> 0:35:36.919
<v Speaker 1>issues we talked about in mid August, the reasons why

0:35:37.080 --> 0:35:40.000
<v Speaker 1>we weren't going forward, we've made tremendous progress and have

0:35:40.080 --> 0:35:43.640
<v Speaker 1>overcome those things. Normal, I'll report them that we've achieved

0:35:43.640 --> 0:35:46.120
<v Speaker 1>those things, and then it's up to them to weigh

0:35:46.120 --> 0:35:48.640
<v Speaker 1>it all in decide, And normally you would want to

0:35:48.640 --> 0:35:50.160
<v Speaker 1>know what the vote is going to be before you

0:35:50.200 --> 0:35:52.439
<v Speaker 1>take the vote. But what you're saying is if there

0:35:52.600 --> 0:35:55.879
<v Speaker 1>is a chancellor president who says, look, I just don't

0:35:55.920 --> 0:35:59.000
<v Speaker 1>feel comfortable doing that, can they sit out this football

0:35:59.040 --> 0:36:02.879
<v Speaker 1>season and the Pack twelve continues to play with everybody else.

0:36:04.160 --> 0:36:06.480
<v Speaker 1>We've never done that, and I don't know if we

0:36:06.520 --> 0:36:08.960
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't do that or not up till now. So you

0:36:08.960 --> 0:36:12.200
<v Speaker 1>think you can get a consensus vote. We've had a

0:36:12.239 --> 0:36:14.960
<v Speaker 1>consensus at every step of the way, and I expect

0:36:14.960 --> 0:36:19.359
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna have a consensus on this. Good luck, and

0:36:20.000 --> 0:36:22.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, I always appreciate you coming on. I know

0:36:22.520 --> 0:36:24.719
<v Speaker 1>it may feel like a firing squad at times, but

0:36:25.360 --> 0:36:28.000
<v Speaker 1>my job is to get answers. It's a very important issue,

0:36:28.160 --> 0:36:30.960
<v Speaker 1>and I know it's it's fluid. It's day to day,

0:36:31.000 --> 0:36:33.080
<v Speaker 1>almost hour to hour of trying to get this done.

0:36:33.520 --> 0:36:36.719
<v Speaker 1>And I wish you luck. I appreciate it. Then, thank you.

0:36:36.840 --> 0:36:39.680

0:37:50.719 --> 0:37:54.520
<v Speaker 1>Let me summarize Larry Scott, the PAC twelve commissioner, his appearance.

0:37:54.600 --> 0:37:57.000
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna have football in the fall with the Pac twelve.

0:37:57.440 --> 0:37:59.600
<v Speaker 1>They have a call later today. I think he knows

0:37:59.640 --> 0:38:01.560
<v Speaker 1>what the it's going to be. It sounds like it'll

0:38:01.600 --> 0:38:04.520
<v Speaker 1>be a consensus. I was wondering if you were going

0:38:04.560 --> 0:38:06.799
<v Speaker 1>to have a couple of outliers like the Big Ten had.

0:38:07.120 --> 0:38:09.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what kind of arm twisting went on

0:38:09.120 --> 0:38:11.800
<v Speaker 1>with the Big Ten to get everybody on the same page,

0:38:12.040 --> 0:38:13.759
<v Speaker 1>but I think that they had to do that with

0:38:13.800 --> 0:38:17.000
<v Speaker 1>some of these schools. PAC twelve probably. I was told

0:38:17.480 --> 0:38:21.279
<v Speaker 1>that at the earliest would be Halloween weekend, and the

0:38:21.320 --> 0:38:24.799
<v Speaker 1>commissioner said probably a little aggressive. There might be a

0:38:24.840 --> 0:38:27.480
<v Speaker 1>week later. And they're not even sure if they're playing

0:38:27.520 --> 0:38:30.799
<v Speaker 1>six games, maybe eight games. I don't know if they

0:38:30.800 --> 0:38:33.399
<v Speaker 1>have a team that would qualify for the Final four,

0:38:33.480 --> 0:38:35.799
<v Speaker 1>be good enough for the Final four. I think they're

0:38:35.840 --> 0:38:38.480
<v Speaker 1>just going to try to play football, recoup some of

0:38:38.480 --> 0:38:40.600
<v Speaker 1>the revenue there, and then maybe if you get some

0:38:40.680 --> 0:38:43.319
<v Speaker 1>bowl games, you'll have one of the schools playing in

0:38:43.360 --> 0:38:46.799
<v Speaker 1>the Rose Bowl. That's best case scenario I think for

0:38:46.840 --> 0:38:49.320
<v Speaker 1>the PAC twelve. Yeah, Paul, A couple of things there

0:38:49.520 --> 0:38:51.520
<v Speaker 1>is tough is that the SEC is going to have

0:38:51.520 --> 0:38:54.279
<v Speaker 1>a ten game conference schedule. The Big Ten is either

0:38:54.280 --> 0:38:56.840
<v Speaker 1>going to have an eight or nine game conference schedule.

0:38:56.840 --> 0:38:59.200
<v Speaker 1>They have an announced specifically that, but at least eight

0:38:59.600 --> 0:39:03.040
<v Speaker 1>the twelve. If they started on October thirty first, would

0:39:03.040 --> 0:39:05.160
<v Speaker 1>you be the earliest? The most games they could get

0:39:05.200 --> 0:39:09.080
<v Speaker 1>in would be seven games before the decisions made for

0:39:09.080 --> 0:39:13.279
<v Speaker 1>the final four. They've been playing games in an exhibition fashion. Yeah,

0:39:13.320 --> 0:39:15.279
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. They're probably going to be playing a

0:39:15.360 --> 0:39:18.640
<v Speaker 1>game or two maybe after the selection show where you

0:39:18.680 --> 0:39:21.120
<v Speaker 1>have the final four, or they're just going to wait

0:39:21.160 --> 0:39:24.760
<v Speaker 1>for the bowl games. But so much of this is happening.

0:39:24.840 --> 0:39:28.319
<v Speaker 1>It's in real time with these decisions. And keep in

0:39:28.360 --> 0:39:30.160
<v Speaker 1>mind when the Commissioner was on with us, was that

0:39:30.360 --> 0:39:34.000
<v Speaker 1>last week when he said this rapid testing, or maybe

0:39:34.000 --> 0:39:36.440
<v Speaker 1>it was two weeks ago, and then all of a sudden,

0:39:36.560 --> 0:39:39.680
<v Speaker 1>the Big Ten. Some of the coaches who listened to

0:39:39.719 --> 0:39:42.359
<v Speaker 1>the show heard that and they said, well, they went

0:39:42.400 --> 0:39:45.000
<v Speaker 1>to their athletic directors and presidents and said, hey, we

0:39:45.040 --> 0:39:47.400
<v Speaker 1>need to get that, like why don't we have this

0:39:47.520 --> 0:39:50.040
<v Speaker 1>rapid testing? And that was part of the reason why

0:39:50.080 --> 0:39:52.560
<v Speaker 1>the Big Ten was able to turn this around so quickly,

0:39:53.040 --> 0:39:56.399
<v Speaker 1>is because the PAC twelve and Larry Scott was saying,

0:39:56.400 --> 0:40:00.400
<v Speaker 1>look we have this, and the Big ten a sudden

0:40:00.440 --> 0:40:03.040
<v Speaker 1>reverse field and said we're going to be coming back

0:40:03.080 --> 0:40:05.359
<v Speaker 1>to play but you're gonna have the PAC twelve. I

0:40:05.400 --> 0:40:08.080
<v Speaker 1>don't know what it's going to look like. I don't

0:40:08.080 --> 0:40:11.080
<v Speaker 1>know how many games. I don't know if there is

0:40:11.200 --> 0:40:13.960
<v Speaker 1>anybody who is going to object to this. It feels

0:40:14.000 --> 0:40:16.000
<v Speaker 1>like the commissioner knows what the vote is going to be.

0:40:16.880 --> 0:40:20.719
<v Speaker 1>All right, So that's interesting. Pack twelve football. The MAC

0:40:20.800 --> 0:40:23.240
<v Speaker 1>is going to Mid American Conference is meeting this weekend.

0:40:23.960 --> 0:40:26.160
<v Speaker 1>Everybody come on in and the deep end of the pool,

0:40:26.800 --> 0:40:29.160
<v Speaker 1>Mountain West, come on in. Everybody now is going to

0:40:29.239 --> 0:40:32.399
<v Speaker 1>play here. Everybody doesn't have the resources that the Power

0:40:32.520 --> 0:40:36.439
<v Speaker 1>five conferences do. Yeah, pol the MAC, the first one's out,

0:40:36.719 --> 0:40:40.760
<v Speaker 1>last one's in. Well, no, the was the IVY IVY

0:40:40.840 --> 0:40:43.319
<v Speaker 1>League was the first one out there, and they're going

0:40:43.360 --> 0:40:45.600
<v Speaker 1>to stay out. The IVY League was the first to

0:40:45.600 --> 0:40:48.520
<v Speaker 1>be out of basketball the tournament. Remember when the IVY

0:40:48.560 --> 0:40:50.880
<v Speaker 1>League bowed out and we're like, yeah, but it's the

0:40:50.880 --> 0:40:53.919
<v Speaker 1>IVY League. And then all of a sudden everybody followed suit,

0:40:54.040 --> 0:40:55.840
<v Speaker 1>and the IVY League said we're not playing football in

0:40:55.840 --> 0:40:57.600
<v Speaker 1>the fall, and then all of a sudden you had

0:40:57.600 --> 0:41:00.319
<v Speaker 1>some conferences following suit. It looks like they're still going

0:41:00.400 --> 0:41:03.879
<v Speaker 1>to play in UH in the spring. Yes, Mickleven. By way,

0:41:03.920 --> 0:41:07.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm reading that Oregon tackle Penny Swell is supposed to

0:41:07.080 --> 0:41:09.680
<v Speaker 1>be a top three pick already signed with an agent,

0:41:09.960 --> 0:41:12.879
<v Speaker 1>so that might complicate things. So if he doesn't come

0:41:12.880 --> 0:41:15.920
<v Speaker 1>back and Oregon's not dominant, does it I mean, is

0:41:15.920 --> 0:41:18.440
<v Speaker 1>it possible that the Final four isn't really the end

0:41:18.480 --> 0:41:20.960
<v Speaker 1>goal for the Pack twelve? No, and it shouldn't be.

0:41:21.120 --> 0:41:24.000
<v Speaker 1>They should just come back to play football. When when's

0:41:24.040 --> 0:41:26.680
<v Speaker 1>the Final four been the end goal for the Pack

0:41:26.760 --> 0:41:32.400
<v Speaker 1>twelve or a realistic goal? A realistic goal? And when's

0:41:32.640 --> 0:41:35.480
<v Speaker 1>Washington's always there at the end and then they fade?

0:41:36.200 --> 0:41:39.200
<v Speaker 1>USC has really been part of the Final four? Right?

0:41:39.320 --> 0:41:41.880
<v Speaker 1>But they used to be. Yeah, but that's when they

0:41:41.920 --> 0:41:45.120
<v Speaker 1>were an elite program. Like who is elite? We know Oregon,

0:41:45.800 --> 0:41:48.200
<v Speaker 1>but that's just because they have a brand. I don't

0:41:48.200 --> 0:41:50.759
<v Speaker 1>know who's great out there. I mean, we don't know.

0:41:51.040 --> 0:41:53.399
<v Speaker 1>I know Clemson's good, and I know Ohio State's good.

0:41:53.440 --> 0:41:57.480
<v Speaker 1>I expect Alabama to be good, Oklahoma and probably Georgia.

0:41:57.719 --> 0:42:02.319
<v Speaker 1>That's just kind of bay off, you know, recent history here. Yeah,

0:42:02.400 --> 0:42:04.239
<v Speaker 1>point well, it'd be really weird though. Let's say the

0:42:04.239 --> 0:42:06.680
<v Speaker 1>Big Ten plays eight games in the Pac twelve place seven.

0:42:06.880 --> 0:42:09.479
<v Speaker 1>What if Oregon were seven and zero in Ohio State

0:42:09.520 --> 0:42:12.960
<v Speaker 1>were seven and one, they would take Ohio State, right,

0:42:13.120 --> 0:42:15.919
<v Speaker 1>but should they take Ohio State? It's it goes back

0:42:15.920 --> 0:42:18.480
<v Speaker 1>to what my source said that the Big Ten is

0:42:18.560 --> 0:42:21.680
<v Speaker 1>banking on the eye test that if they don't play

0:42:21.719 --> 0:42:23.799
<v Speaker 1>the same number of games. Now, they're gonna play nine.

0:42:23.840 --> 0:42:26.759
<v Speaker 1>From what I'm told, there's eight, and then everybody is

0:42:26.760 --> 0:42:29.640
<v Speaker 1>going to play on that final weekend with the Big

0:42:29.640 --> 0:42:33.560
<v Speaker 1>Ten championship. So the two top schools in each of

0:42:33.600 --> 0:42:36.239
<v Speaker 1>their divisions they're in the Big Ten, and then the

0:42:36.320 --> 0:42:38.160
<v Speaker 1>second place third place. So they're going to try to

0:42:38.200 --> 0:42:41.040
<v Speaker 1>get nine games in the Big Ten, that's the goal.

0:42:41.440 --> 0:42:43.640
<v Speaker 1>But the sec ACC in Big twelve are going to

0:42:43.680 --> 0:42:46.680
<v Speaker 1>be playing ten games. Yes, b club, and you look

0:42:46.719 --> 0:42:49.480
<v Speaker 1>like you how to go? I would just say, remember

0:42:49.480 --> 0:42:52.520
<v Speaker 1>that year they jumped Ohio State over Baylor and Kansas Snakes,

0:42:52.760 --> 0:42:56.040
<v Speaker 1>like they'll they'll they like some of those blue bloods right. Well,

0:42:56.080 --> 0:43:00.040
<v Speaker 1>plus this year it feels like you can massage it

0:43:00.200 --> 0:43:02.480
<v Speaker 1>however you want to because you're going, well, you know,

0:43:03.200 --> 0:43:06.680
<v Speaker 1>during this pandemic, you know hard to have you know,

0:43:06.760 --> 0:43:09.759
<v Speaker 1>apples to apples. Here, you got apples to bananas, and

0:43:10.000 --> 0:43:13.920
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna take Ohio State. Somebody could go undefeated. We're

0:43:13.920 --> 0:43:16.680
<v Speaker 1>gonna take Ohio State here even with one loss. Their

0:43:18.160 --> 0:43:20.239
<v Speaker 1>question is, can you get two teams from the Big

0:43:20.280 --> 0:43:24.080
<v Speaker 1>Ten in That's what I'd be curious about. Now if

0:43:24.080 --> 0:43:26.879
<v Speaker 1>you got Wisconsin and Ohio State. But if you lose

0:43:26.920 --> 0:43:29.719
<v Speaker 1>in the Big Ten title game, then that's going to

0:43:29.840 --> 0:43:33.839
<v Speaker 1>preclude you from, you know, being a possible Final four team. Now,

0:43:33.880 --> 0:43:36.040
<v Speaker 1>if you go seven and one or eight and one

0:43:36.920 --> 0:43:39.719
<v Speaker 1>or eight, you know seven and two, you're not going

0:43:39.760 --> 0:43:42.880
<v Speaker 1>to make the Final four because Clemson will go undefeated.

0:43:43.840 --> 0:43:47.840
<v Speaker 1>Alabama will you know, has that chance, or Georgia going undefeated,

0:43:48.640 --> 0:43:51.200
<v Speaker 1>and then you'll have, you know, the Pac twelve with Oklahoma.

0:43:51.320 --> 0:43:53.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean you already had Iowa State in Kansas State

0:43:53.600 --> 0:43:57.080
<v Speaker 1>lose at home. Yeah, mcclubbing. You got your Notre Dame

0:43:57.120 --> 0:44:00.839
<v Speaker 1>fighting Irish in the ACC. That's not a tough schedules it. Well,

0:44:00.920 --> 0:44:04.719
<v Speaker 1>they got Clemson, Oh darn it, they played Clemson. That's

0:44:04.760 --> 0:44:07.919
<v Speaker 1>their playoff game right there, and judging how Notre Dame

0:44:07.960 --> 0:44:12.600
<v Speaker 1>looked against Duke, they better get a lot better before

0:44:12.600 --> 0:44:16.400
<v Speaker 1>they meet Clemson. Russell Wilson will join US coming up

0:44:16.480 --> 0:44:19.360
<v Speaker 1>next hour, one hour in the Books, two more to go, Seaton, Paulie,

0:44:19.360 --> 0:44:22.359
<v Speaker 1>Fritzie McClellan, yours truly right here on The Dan Patrick Show.
