1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,720
Speaker 1: Hey guys, Bobby here, thank you for being subscribed to

2
00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:04,640
Speaker 1: the Bobby Cast. We just appreciate it. The thing has

3
00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:09,240
Speaker 1: grown so much, and just appreciate you obviously. So we

4
00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:12,080
Speaker 1: have a new football podcast called Whistles, and the reason

5
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:14,600
Speaker 1: is it's because we're doing twenty five episodes and then

6
00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:17,239
Speaker 1: it's just gonna die. And isn't that just a metaphor

7
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:19,840
Speaker 1: for life. We live, we love, and then we die.

8
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:22,439
Speaker 1: That's kind of sad, but that's what's happening here twenty

9
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 1: five Whistles. We're talking in college football NFL. And so

10
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 1: this is an episode that this was our starter episode

11
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:29,960
Speaker 1: and the goal is in like five episodes, to be

12
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:32,640
Speaker 1: embarrassed of this episode because it was so bad compared

13
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:34,800
Speaker 1: to what we're doing now. But we're very proud of it.

14
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 1: And mostly if you like it, go and subscribe and

15
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:42,120

16
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: sports podcast that's focused on current sports. So Dan Patrick

17
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 1: is a guest. We're very excited he came on. I

18
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 1: just didn't expect to get somebody so awesome in the

19
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 1: first episode. Also, the Arkansas had football coach Sam Pittman,

20
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 1: and even if you hate Arkansas and you've heard me

21
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 1: talk about it so much you're like, please stab me

22
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:00,200
Speaker 1: in the ear. We don't really talk about ark saw

23
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:03,440
Speaker 1: football that much doing Mike. It's mostly like being an

24
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 1: SEC coach and the challenges behind the scenes stuff. Yeah,

25
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:08,280

52
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:30,959

53
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:35,360

Speaker 1: warm up question. We'll go around the room, we'll introduce you.

57
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 1: This is how we get to know each other. So

58
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 1: we'll go around there and first up, the question will

59
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: be who is your favorite football player as a kid.

60
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: So think about that for a second. Your favorite player

61
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:53,520
Speaker 1: as a kid. First up, Adam Handbrick. Adam your favorite

62
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:58,359
Speaker 1: football player as a child, Smithy, I grew up a

63
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,639
Speaker 1: Cowboys fan. Yeah, you know, the the other Cowboys get

64
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 1: the traditional TV coverage in Arkansas, and that's who was

65
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: on and that's who my dad was a fan of,

66
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 1: and so I was. I got duped into being a

67
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: Cowboys fan when they were winning all those Super Bowls

68
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 1: and the nineties Eddie Joe Montana. So before I was

69
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,399
Speaker 1: there a Cowboys hear me, Before I was a Cowboys fan,

70
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 1: I was the Ford Niners fan obviously, because Joe Montana

71
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 1: and Jared Rice and all those dudes were just dominating.

72
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 1: And then once Joe Montana went to the Chiefs retired,

73
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 1: bah blah, I was like, I need a team, and

74
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: so my mom was really into the Cowboys. Obviously I'm

75
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 1: from South Texas. Let's go Cowboys and we started winning.

76
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 1: That's my team now. But you can't really change teams.

77
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 1: Well you're not, as I literally thought you were a

78
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 1: much like deeper Cowboys fan. Yeah, I feel borderland trade Listen,

79
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 1: you can't trade teams. Listen. When you're a kid, you

80
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 1: like who you like and at that time it's just

81
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 1: whoever is winning it. I don't have a team, like

82
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 1: can you imagine. I can't imagine me a Ford Niners

83
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: fans still like that. That's ridiculous. I'm not from California, Texas,

84
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 1: but I'm surprised you just warn't as a kid, I

85
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 1: guess that's what I'm saying. Are there any I heart

86
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 1: Texans fans? I mean, like, unless you like live there

87
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 1: and you're like soup, you know that would be I

88
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 1: remember as a kid kid maybe a Texans fan because

89
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 1: they grew up there. I remember as a kid there

90
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 1: were a lot of Oilers, like it was split Cowboys.

91
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 1: Oilers and Cowboys weren't I mean, stop back. Those were

92
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:16,720
Speaker 1: great days for them. But I think there were more

93
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 1: Oilers fans when Texans took over. I mean I didn't

94
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 1: know anybody kick off Kevin Your favorite football player as

95
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,279
Speaker 1: a kid as a kid? Um, well, either one would

96
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 1: be Tom Brady, but he's still playing, so I'll go

97
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 1: with Randy Moss. That's crazy. I was nine. Do you

98
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,160
Speaker 1: have such a beer and big muscles? How old are

99
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 1: you at a young age? No? You do not do

100
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:44,359
Speaker 1: that's all. Yeah, like the oil fields for like twenty years.

101
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:46,600
Speaker 1: Is that a good thing? That's a good thing. That's

102
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:50,600
Speaker 1: a good thing. He's like se Kwan Barkley as a kid,

103
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,280
Speaker 1: like Joe Burrow. Mike d favorite football player as a

104
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 1: kid Troy Aikman. Okay, that's a good one. How old

105
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 1: are you, Mike thirty one? There we go. There's like

106
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 1: a generation difference still on your favorite players, though, I

107
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 1: guess Tom Brady the first part of Tom Brady, Yeah,

108
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 1: like the earlier. But like I said, the first player

109
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 1: I remember liking was Randy Moss. Dear God, we have

110
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 1: three Cowboys fans here. It's a Cowboys show. Welcome to

111
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 1: the Cowboys club. Mine is boom Assayasin because when I

112
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,599
Speaker 1: was a kid, he was the only left handed quarterback

113
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 1: that I really like, and in the Forts were winning,

114
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,719
Speaker 1: so I didn't go with Steve Young and Joe Montana

115
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:27,600
Speaker 1: was hit early in my early days. And then when

116
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: Steve Young became the quarterback and he was left handed,

117
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: I don't like a winner. I like somebody that's a

118
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 1: loser that becomes a winner. So I was a big

119
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals fan. I remember watching them beat by the

120
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 1: forty niners and being so sad. I cried. It was

121
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 1: it was awful. But Boomersia said he was my inspiration

122
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 1: until like seventh grade when I wasn't quarterback anymore. And

123
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:47,280
Speaker 1: he also like went to the Jets. And there's a

124
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 1: whole weird thing. So but I don't have a team.

125
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 1: I don't have an NFL team. I like a lot

126
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:52,920
Speaker 1: of the NFL teams. I hate a few NFL teams,

127
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 1: mostly just the Cowboys. But and I don't even have

128
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 1: But I don't even hate him as much. I hated

129
00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,719
Speaker 1: a winner, so I hated the Cowboys all throughout the

130
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 1: you know, mid to late nineties. We should love us now, well, yes,

131
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,600
Speaker 1: you're a big losers. But you guys are so annoying.

132
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 1: So you say annoying, I say, we're very hopeful. But yeah,

133
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 1: it's a passion, hope because every start of the year

134
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:16,720
Speaker 1: we're like, this is it, this is our year. But

135
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:19,839
Speaker 1: I can appreciate that. I don't I like that about you,

136
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 1: but I can respect and also hate the passion. Hey,

137
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: is it too late for you to come up with

138
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,840
Speaker 1: a favorite NFL team? Like? Um, I have a couple

139
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:31,599
Speaker 1: of friends that play, and that makes it weird. Weish

140
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 1: we should take some tweets and like get people to

141
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 1: to for their teams. I don't give a crap. I'm

142
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: good watching. I'll watch fantasy. I'll root for the Titans

143
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 1: because they're close and there some people over there. I'll

144
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 1: follow Arkansas players like Traylon Brooks with the Titans. I'll

145
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 1: keep up with that. So okay. Second question, name a

146
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 1: dumb sports mascot? All right, name a dumb sports mascot. Question.

147
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,160
Speaker 1: Eddie says he's in go Blue Devils. Okay, the duke

148
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 1: blue Man? What is that? High school was red Devils?

149
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 1: I get it when you pictured the devil, it's red, right,

150
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:08,040
Speaker 1: But what's a blue Devils like the ice a devil?

151
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,440

00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 1: twin brother, that's the good devil. That's a good point.

153
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 1: Kick off, Kevin, let's go with the Philly fanatic. I

154
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 1: think it's just random to me. His look. You know,

155
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 1: that's an interesting tea too, because when the mascot doesn't

156
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 1: actually like Stanford, what is it? They have a tree

157
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 1: and they have Christmas year round. That wasn't my answer.

158
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:37,440
Speaker 1: Oh that's but yeah, Toledo. You know Toledo's mascot. Are

159
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 1: they Rockets? Rockets? Um? So, I hate the Toledo Rockets.

160
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:46,280
Speaker 1: First of all, I hate because we went and Brad

161
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,360
Speaker 1: Paisley asked Eddie and I to go play a show

162
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 1: after Arkansas played Toledo. It was a little more memorial stadium,

163
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 1: and so we're supposed to kill him, and Eddie and

164
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 1: I are like, absolutely so, somebody an opener. Eddie and

165
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 1: I the reging idiots and Brad easily right after the

166
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 1: game we're supposed to win. We lost the game to Toledo.

167
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 1: They beat us, and we were miserable. I didn't want

168
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 1: to do as awful, So I hate the Rockets. I mean,

169
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 1: Toledo's cool and fine. I was really worried that night

170
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 1: that you weren't gonna go on my boycott. Straight up,

171
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 1: Mike d named dumb sports mascot. I can't even think of,

172
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:25,680
Speaker 1: not a single dumb mascot. No, if I thought some

173
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:29,080

Speaker 1: boys are athletes, like my little kids are really good athletes,

196
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:48,400

208
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 1: twenty five whistles. Here's why we're named this draft. Kings

209
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 1: was like, hey, let's I want you to do a

210
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:25,319
Speaker 1: show and I said, okay. We talked about it for

211
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 1: a long time and I said, I don't want to

212
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 1: commit to a show for all year. I don't know

213
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:32,080
Speaker 1: who's gonna do it with me. I don't know if

214
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 1: we have the capat. I said, let's lot do a

215
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,120
Speaker 1: sports show and we'll do it till the Super Bowl.

216
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 1: They were like, great, I'll do one a week, which

217
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:39,080
Speaker 1: we're doing here. We'll probably do a little more than

218
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 1: one a week occasionally, but I said I'll do twenty

219
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 1: five and then we're retiring, and so that's why it's

220
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 1: twenty five. Whistles will build whistled into each show, episodes

221
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:49,720
Speaker 1: over and then we're good. Episode two. That's it. Dan

222
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:51,959
Speaker 1: Patrick coming up in a little bits. As I look

223
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,199
Speaker 1: back at my favorite interviews ever and like the coolest ones.

224
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 1: I put Steven Tyler up there, half Hourady with John Mayer,

225
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 1: and I put Dan Patrick because I'm just a massive

226
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 1: Dan Patrick fan. You guys thought it was cool, right

227
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,679
Speaker 1: it was? It was awesome. So Dan Patrick coming up.

228
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 1: And obviously the first episode, we're gonna have Sam Pittman,

229
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 1: the Arkansas football head coach. We don't really talk about

230
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 1: Arkansas football, meaning we don't get in. It's mostly like

231
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 1: being an SEC coach, being famous, now in a town,

232
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 1: all of that. So we talked with Sam Pittman a

233
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 1: little bit. I was worried that when you book Sam Pittman,

234
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 1: I'm like, here we go, it's gonna be an Arkansas podcast.

235
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 1: It easily could have been, but I didn't make it

236
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 1: that I It was could have been any SEC head coach,

237
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 1: but I just felt like I needed to go Pittman

238
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 1: because that's my guy, and I knew I could get

239
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 1: out just texted him, honestly, So next week and we

240
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:41,840
Speaker 1: get the quarterbacks coach, you to play quarterback for it.

241
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 1: Logins coming on the polic All right, here's what we're

242
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:45,960
Speaker 1: gonna do. This is a little game we're gonna play

243
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 1: for the episodes that we do. You don't have to play,

244
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 1: but if you don't get in today, you can't play

245
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,640
Speaker 1: the rest of the year. Oh my gosh. Right, So

246
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 1: we're gonna play who Wins It All? So for one dollar.

247
00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:59,680
Speaker 1: For one dollar, you can buy a team in college

248
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 1: footb all you can somebody else can buy the same

249
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,719
Speaker 1: team for one dollar. You can buy a team in

250
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 1: the NFL. Right now, you go who Wins it All?

251
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,679
Speaker 1: Put a dollar in on it, and you can keep

252
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 1: that one dollar in it. Now, if you change your

253
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,679
Speaker 1: pick at any time, you gotta double your dollar bet

254
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 1: to two dollars. You can change and pick another team.

255
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:21,800
Speaker 1: So that being the case, we'll have to shut it

256
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 1: down at one point. Obviously. What figure out when that is?

257
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 1: Maybe it's new Year. Maybe it's because I just made

258
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,679
Speaker 1: the scheme up last night. So I don't want you

259
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 1: guys to go beautiful mind to figure out how to

260
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,199
Speaker 1: actually beat the system. So We're gonna play who wins

261
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,720
Speaker 1: it all? Nobody got a heads up, But for one dollar,

262
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,600
Speaker 1: you get to pick a team, and each one dollar college,

263
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 1: one dollar NFL, and we'll keep up with it. Um

264
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 1: does everybody want in for a dollar? It would be dumb.

265
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,640
Speaker 1: Let's play who wins it all? And we'll check every

266
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 1: week if we wants to change your mind? Who wins

267
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:56,120
Speaker 1: it all? In college football? Okay? Now, remember, if you

268
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 1: pick a big team, someone else might pick it with you.

269
00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 1: You just can't come in on a team that's already

270
00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 1: picked a week after. We're later. So if you pick

271
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 1: Alabama right now and you have been changing your mind

272
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,000
Speaker 1: to go to somebody else, I can then go to Alabama.

273
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 1: But if you have it, I can't take Alabama later

274
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,440
Speaker 1: because we gotta split the money up in a weird way. Also,

275
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,679
Speaker 1: I'm making up the rules as I go. Right there. Okay,

276
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:24,360
Speaker 1: let's play who wins it all? Adam Handbrike college football?

277
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:29,079
Speaker 1: Who wins it all? Oh man, I'm gonna it's hard

278
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,199
Speaker 1: to argue against Alabama. I'm gonna argue against Alabama though,

279
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 1: and take Ohio State just big. We can't. We can't

280
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:37,680
Speaker 1: just have Alabama win it every year. You guys, well,

281
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:41,320
Speaker 1: I mean they didn't. I know, um, Eddie, give me

282
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 1: a dollar for Alabama? Okay, I mean why not was

286
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go. I do want, but I just want

287
00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 1: to be differently. I don't want to go three deep

288
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,319
Speaker 1: on Alabama. We should have all written it down before,

289
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 1: but I thought if I could read it, read you

290
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:16,719
Speaker 1: just up. I know. But I'm just coming up with

00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 1: another dollar. I didn't say when they started out over

304
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:57,640
Speaker 1: for I'm gonna go with the packers so that you know,

305
00:14:57,680 --> 00:14:59,400
Speaker 1: you guys can't hop on the packers. So I'm gonna

306
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,400
Speaker 1: sit on the packers for a little bit. I'll go

307
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 1: with the packers to win at all. Just we should

308
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 1: have like a jar and have actual dollar bills. We

309
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 1: should put it somewhere. But people steal from here. But

310
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 1: it's only against like five bucks, so it's like a

311
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:17,640
Speaker 1: big deal. But everybody has, yes, everybody, everybody has two dollars. Yes,

312
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:19,880
Speaker 1: So just so I'm clear on the rules. Can once

313
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 1: we pick a team, we can't and then we change

314
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:25,160
Speaker 1: from that team, we can't come back to that team.

315
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:26,880
Speaker 1: You can if nobody else is on it. If no

316
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 1: one else but like Alabama's already been packed, Alabama's on.

317
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 1: So it's long if one of you Alabamas or me

318
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 1: move off of it, as long as somebody's still on it,

319
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 1: it's not open to take. If everybody moves off, somebody

320
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 1: else can get back on. But if I were to

321
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 1: get in a week four, then the money's all weirdly

322
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 1: split up and we gotta do percentages. We got it,

323
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:47,040
Speaker 1: and if I that's the rules and I don't, I

324
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 1: have to look back what I said. Okay, so we

325
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:52,080
Speaker 1: all have our teams here. I do want to talk

326
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 1: about Draft Kings for a second, because they're awesome and

327
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 1: they're the reason that I'm doing this, and I've been

328
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 1: with Draft Kings for a long time as in not

329
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 1: just spokesperson, I'm not just spokespert, and I'm also a client.

330
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 1: Um So when we're talking about the futures, the Bills

331
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 1: are the favorite at plus six hundred, so they nobody

332
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 1: picked the Bills or the betting favorite. The Bucks are

333
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 1: at seven plus seven hundred, the Chiefs plus thousands, the

334
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 1: Packers of plus a thousand, and the Rams of plus

335
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,040
Speaker 1: twelve hundred. So those are your top five teams right

336
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 1: now if you're gonna bet. But even picking a favorite

337
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 1: this early, because I'm not a big favorite guy to bet,

338
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:25,800
Speaker 1: but even picking a favorite, the odds are long enough

339
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:28,520
Speaker 1: that this early there's still some pretty good money there.

340
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 1: If you've got Buffalo a plus six hundred eddie, if

341
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,280
Speaker 1: I bet if I've got a hundred bucks on Buffalo

342
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 1: the plus six hundred, how much of money will I make?

343
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 1: Uh five dollars? Right, because it would not not counting

344
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 1: your one eddie. If I bet a hundred bucks, yeah,

345
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:47,120
Speaker 1: you're all you're almost right. I mean, if it's you're

346
00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 1: not counting. If I bet a hundred bucks Buffalo plus

347
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 1: six hundred, that is how much money? But so it's seven.

348
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 1: But it's the one the back exactly. You got it.

349
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 1: So we've all made our picks. But Draft Kings is awesome.

350
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 1: It's easy to use. You get your money quick back.

351
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 1: It's not like some people that we know that go

352
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:08,160
Speaker 1: through odd foreign places and that's a whole situation. Yeah,

353
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,080
Speaker 1: don't don't be that guy. Oh yeah, appreciate Draft Kings

354
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,320
Speaker 1: and being a part of it. Here. Let's do this.

355
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:14,639
Speaker 1: I think this is intric We already kind of got

356
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,199
Speaker 1: on a little bit. But we're gonna do identify your

357
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,399
Speaker 1: team in the first episode, so you know bias the

358
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 1: whole season. So when people say crap, you know that

359
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 1: they have a bias. Um, I'll go first. I don't

360
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,639
Speaker 1: have an NFL team, but in the Arkansas player on

361
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 1: bias four and I'm a massive Arkansas Razorbacks fan. Um,

362
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:33,480
Speaker 1: but I'm not biased there either, just in case at

363
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:35,639
Speaker 1: a bias alert. I don't have a college team. I

364
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:39,360
Speaker 1: went to sam Houston State. I mean, they're decent at

365
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:43,639
Speaker 1: the Division one, doful, but you're not like following them

366
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:45,639
Speaker 1: every week? No, no no, no. But on ESPN plus they

367
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:47,639
Speaker 1: do play some of their games, and I scan it

368
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 1: on a Saturday and they're playing, I watch it. I

369
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:51,439
Speaker 1: guess my point with this is if you hear us

370
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 1: talking about a team in a segment here, so I

371
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:56,800
Speaker 1: guess Samson says rocking for some reason if they're coming up.

372
00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 1: But so, no college team, but also you're in a

373
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:03,120
Speaker 1: all teams is the Dallas Cowboys kick off? Kevin uh

374
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,359
Speaker 1: No allegiance to a collegiate team, I'm like you, Or

375
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 1: I have teams that I don't like and then teams

376
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:09,679
Speaker 1: that I kind of root for for whatever reason, So

377
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:11,240
Speaker 1: that's a bias or who do you not like? Because

378
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:14,400
Speaker 1: I don't like Notre Dame. See I grew up watching them,

379
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,440
Speaker 1: but I'm not a huge fan. I don't like Ohuse State,

380
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 1: I don't like I might not want to hear this.

381
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:22,240
Speaker 1: Oklahoma I didn't like Oklahomila till I had to, but

382
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:24,480
Speaker 1: now I do. I can't hate them anymore. But State

383
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:27,720
Speaker 1: it's another one. I don't like Texas, USC. I like Texas,

384
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:32,520
Speaker 1: I don't like USC. Uh. That's pretty much it for

385
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 1: the most part. NFL, you have a New England had on, Yes,

386
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:37,520
Speaker 1: Patriots fan. My dad from back East Rhode Island. So

387
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:40,159
Speaker 1: I grew up in California, but dads from I've never

388
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:43,919
Speaker 1: met anybody from rhodel Ken just a whole like Mystery. Yeah,

389
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:49,120
Speaker 1: Mighty Texas, the Cowboys. Okay, I don't hate people from

390
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:55,879
Speaker 1: Texas or even individual long Horns, the brand on Arkansas.

391
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 1: I'm supposed to hate the long Horns. Adam Hamburg, massive

392
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 1: Razorback fan. This is part of the reason why me

393
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 1: and Bobby your friends, um and uh. Yeah. I grew

394
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:08,080
Speaker 1: up in Arkansas, but a lot of my growing up

395
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:10,120
Speaker 1: was in Mississippi. So I was like the only Arkansas

396
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 1: Razorback fan within like two hundred miles, and so I

397
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 1: just like, you know, I just like clung onto that

398
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,680
Speaker 1: as a kid, the Razorbacks and Cowboys. Razorbacks and Cowboys.

399
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,359
Speaker 1: But also since moving to Nashville, it was kind of

400
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:24,879
Speaker 1: made made space in my heart for the Titans. And

401
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 1: so it's can have multiple teams, can multiple teams, you

402
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 1: can't have a one one. That's different conferences, though it

403
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 1: was now different conferences. You can't have two teams. You

404
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:36,119
Speaker 1: can root along for two teams, but you can't have

405
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:40,359
Speaker 1: two teams. You have one team or no teams. Is

406
00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:42,119
Speaker 1: that is that if you have three teams, you have

407
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 1: no teams. You have two quarterbacks, you have no quarterbacks.

408
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:47,960
Speaker 1: That's like having multiple favorite teams. Um, okay, so this

409
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:50,200
Speaker 1: is our first episode and we're today, we're gonna start

410
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 1: and I've introduced you to Kevin. Now I horribly named

411
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 1: him kick Off Kevin because I was just like, we

412
00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 1: gotta call you something, and so it's a terrible names

413
00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:59,520
Speaker 1: that you can change it, but we didn't. And so

414
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:03,479
Speaker 1: in the theme of naming you horribly, I've named your

415
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,959
Speaker 1: segment horribly. So this segment is called kick Off Kevin's

416
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 1: five question tittle tattle that makes no sense whatsoever, But

417
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:17,080
Speaker 1: this is this five question tittle tattle where and here's

418
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:18,720
Speaker 1: the rules And went up to this every time, but

419
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:21,200
Speaker 1: Kevin will come and he'll bring me five questions about

420
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 1: NFL and n C double A I will answer it,

421
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:24,440
Speaker 1: and if you disagree with me, this is your first

422
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 1: shot at the whistle. If I finish and you disagree,

423
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 1: blow the whistle and I will come to you and

424
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,400
Speaker 1: you can say your part. I like it. Okay, we're

425
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,439
Speaker 1: seeing I made this up to and I can't disagree. Correct.

426
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:40,119
Speaker 1: You are in this. You are the reporter. You cannot disagree.

427
00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,159
Speaker 1: If later we bring it up again, that's fine, but

428
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:45,680
Speaker 1: you have to be absolutely impartial. Okay. I see the

429
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:47,479
Speaker 1: question and I shut my mouth like a good reporter.

430
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 1: Is okay, first question and the tittle tattle Kevin. Alright,

431
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:54,679
Speaker 1: which offseason quarterback in the collegiate World transfer will result

432
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:57,680
Speaker 1: real result in the most wins for their respective program.

433
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 1: Caleb Williams going to USC Quinn you were is going

434
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:03,920
Speaker 1: to Texas? Dylan Gabriel to oh You or Jackson Dart

435
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:07,320
Speaker 1: down to old Miss Jackson Dart's interesting. I mean, all

436
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:09,240
Speaker 1: those guys are kind of leaving the same place. It's

437
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:12,159
Speaker 1: like it's like justin Fields and Borough and when you

438
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 1: know State Georgia, they all kind of just shifted a

439
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:16,480
Speaker 1: little bit. But that's happening here a little bit. Darts

440
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:22,880
Speaker 1: interesting because that Lane Kiffin's system is ready to win

441
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:24,479
Speaker 1: a little bit they have. I think they have a

442
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 1: pretty decent shot to be competitive in the SEC West. Um,

443
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 1: the kid at Oklahoma's from UCF. They are good and

444
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,479
Speaker 1: they play in a conference it's not that good, so

445
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:38,119
Speaker 1: that's a factor. Caleb Williams awesome. I watched him a

446
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 1: lot because I watched a lot of the games of

447
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 1: my my wife last year. And when he came in,

448
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:46,880
Speaker 1: he took over for Spencer Rattler. It was the win

449
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:50,000
Speaker 1: over Texas. When they came back they wanted. He took

450
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 1: over the whole game. Uh, that was pretty awesome. And

451
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:56,720
Speaker 1: who's who's the other option you get? And he hasn't

452
00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:58,439
Speaker 1: even won the job. He's going to be the quarterback,

453
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:00,680
Speaker 1: but he hasn't officially won the job yet, at least

454
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:03,200
Speaker 1: as we're recording this. Uh, he's the kid from Ohio State.

455
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 1: He got a million bucks. I think designing pieced out,

456
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:08,320
Speaker 1: which is gonna be interesting too with Manning coming in

457
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:11,080
Speaker 1: Arch Manning next year into Texas. Now, if he doesn't play,

458
00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:13,439
Speaker 1: which they're saying he's not going to freshman year, that

459
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 1: kind of works out because you also have this year

460
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,120
Speaker 1: and next year and then maybe he goes pro. That way,

461
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,440
Speaker 1: you can sit for a year spent a rattlers another

462
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 1: option in South Carolina. I thought about him, but he

463
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 1: kind of had a down year last year, so I

464
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, but then you're getting getting replaced. Yeah.

465
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:30,880
Speaker 1: He was the odds on favorite to be the first

466
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 1: round draft pick this year though at one point last year.

467
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:38,240
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with but from your options, give me

468
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:41,240
Speaker 1: your options one more time, just a quarterbacks. Since Caleb

469
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 1: Williams you see winning yours in Texas dealing Gabriel to Ou,

470
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Gabriel. Gabriel is a good quarterback from

471
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:50,399
Speaker 1: ucf UM, and I think, oh you, of all those programs,

472
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:54,240
Speaker 1: has the best shot to actually win a lot of games,

473
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 1: win that conference, and possibly be in the playoff. So

474
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:04,439
Speaker 1: that my answer there, all right, who blew the whistle? Me? Adam?

475
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:07,120
Speaker 1: Blew the whistle? Alright, Adam, because Kayla Williams, he's got

476
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:10,439
Speaker 1: a way easier road man. The Pack twelve is is

477
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:14,639
Speaker 1: just not as good as the Big twelve. And I

478
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 1: can't I can't think of more than three teams that

479
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,520
Speaker 1: should beat usc UM and so I think they're gonna

480
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:23,680
Speaker 1: at least win nine nine games. They have to win

481
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 1: nine games. I think Oklahoma wins ten or eleven. They might.

482
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:30,080
Speaker 1: I don't know it's gonna beat them. Texas. Listen, Tech,

483
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,639
Speaker 1: I know Tech, he's got a first place vote. Texas

484
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 1: is always just a craft shoot. And then they still

485
00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:36,359
Speaker 1: have to get by Baylor, they had to give by

486
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,160
Speaker 1: Oklahoma State, and and I don't know that they can

487
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 1: win those in our first year head coach. Those are

488
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:43,960
Speaker 1: all like really good programs right now, I would now

489
00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 1: I don't agree with, but Ventables has been in Oklahoma,

490
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:47,159
Speaker 1: so it's not like that's all new to him. He

491
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:50,120
Speaker 1: was defensive coordinated there for a long time. Um, I'm

492
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:53,200
Speaker 1: still going to Oklahoma. You blew your whistle. Now you're

493
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 1: you're off the show. All right, that's my answer. That's

494
00:23:58,040 --> 00:23:59,399
Speaker 1: number one. Give me ever two? All right. Do you

495
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:02,439
Speaker 1: think Rams quarterback Matt staffords sore elbow will be the

496
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,880
Speaker 1: downfall of l A's chance as repeating as Super Bowl champions?

497
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 1: I mean downfall. No, I think it's gonna be something

498
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,639
Speaker 1: they have to watch, and I think they'll have to

499
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 1: play a little different because of that. I think they'll

500
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:16,439
Speaker 1: probably not be able to run their offense as freely

501
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:18,440
Speaker 1: as they possibly would want to, even if he's feeling

502
00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:20,960
Speaker 1: pretty good. I think they just gotta. They have to

503
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,080
Speaker 1: monitor it and take care of it, even if it's

504
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:26,240
Speaker 1: not killing it at Tendonita sucks and I never even

505
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 1: had it at a level like that, but I had it,

506
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:29,359
Speaker 1: and it was for four months. Had it worked on

507
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,880
Speaker 1: dry needled, I had. I did everything to it. Um

508
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 1: so downfall. No, and their defense is so good that

509
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:42,040
Speaker 1: they could actually keep them in it or not mine.

510
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 1: They could actually still win a whole lot of freaking games.

511
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:47,679
Speaker 1: So no, And I think Stafford will probably be fine

512
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:51,120
Speaker 1: at the end of it. It's not like it's throwing elbow.

513
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:55,040
Speaker 1: It's that he's coming off reconstructive surgery. So I'm gonna go.

514
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:57,320
Speaker 1: They're still in it. They still have a chance, all right.

515
00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 1: Next one, Okay, old faces and new places for the

516
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,040
Speaker 1: wider evers. This year, will they have open or under

517
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:04,520
Speaker 1: their two thousand twenty one totals will start with Tyreek

518
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:07,679
Speaker 1: Hill with receiving yards in one had one thousand, two

519
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 1: hundred thirty nine. But two is this quarterback And I know,

520
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:11,480
Speaker 1: like people hate too and they say you can't throw.

521
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,879
Speaker 1: I've been watching the Dolphins practice videos and I'm only

522
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 1: seen the ones Dolphins ones want me to see. They're

523
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 1: looking pretty good. Like Tyrenk is running fast everybody. He

524
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 1: was it on Instagram, it was on Twitter. Actually, I'm

525
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 1: gonna go with under only because it is to it

526
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 1: and not my homes. Uh, they're gonna really, I mean,

527
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:39,600
Speaker 1: waddle is so good. Here's the thing about Miami though,

528
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 1: They've got a couple elite wide receivers where the Chiefs didn't.

529
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 1: She's had a great tight end. But I don't feel

530
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,240
Speaker 1: like they could open it. Why don't can fly to

531
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 1: Like you got two of the fastest guys in the NFL.

532
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 1: I'm still gonna go under because of the quarterback and

533
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 1: not because I think I like to. Uh, but two

534
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:00,960
Speaker 1: is not my homes, so gonna go under. Give me

535
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 1: another one, all right? A. J. Brown twenty one or

536
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:05,919
Speaker 1: two one touchdowns, had five over under five this year

537
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,880
Speaker 1: with the Eagles. I think he has more. I think

538
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 1: his quarterback situation is slightly improved. I don't think that

539
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:16,840
Speaker 1: he's going to a quarterback that's going to change his life.

540
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:18,640
Speaker 1: I think he's got money that will change his life now,

541
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,399
Speaker 1: which is the Titans didn't want to pay him, but

542
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:24,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say more because I think he's gonna be

543
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:26,959
Speaker 1: more of a focus in that offense where Tannehill they

544
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 1: threw a bit and he was they tried to make

545
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:30,240
Speaker 1: him the focus. They trying to make Julio the focus

546
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:31,960
Speaker 1: whenever he was not hurt, but he was also hurt

547
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:33,800
Speaker 1: a little bit. So I'm gonna go he's gonna have

548
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:38,080
Speaker 1: more in Philadelphia, Okay, And Davante Adams to twoptions had

549
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:42,120
Speaker 1: a dree over under twenty three this year under just

550
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:48,240
Speaker 1: because Renfroze there, uh, that system, he will get he

551
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,119
Speaker 1: will get a lot of balls. But um, you know

552
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:58,439
Speaker 1: between renfro Ah Davante Adams Ah that the tied end

553
00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,120
Speaker 1: in in Vegas is really good to Waller last year

554
00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:02,919
Speaker 1: came out and kind of came out of nowhere as

555
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 1: far as the production he had. So I'm gonna go

556
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:07,400
Speaker 1: with still no, but I think they have a lot

557
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 1: more options and I think he'll he will perform wonderfully,

558
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,639
Speaker 1: just won't get as many catches. All right, next question? Alright.

559
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 1: Former pit wide receiver Jordan Adison, who transferred the USC

560
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,199
Speaker 1: this off season, recently said I definitely felt like I

561
00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:22,800
Speaker 1: got drugged through the mud with the media after catching

562
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,639
Speaker 1: scrutiny from leaving Pit to go to USC Is this

563
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 1: new era of college football free agency? Bad or good

564
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:33,120
Speaker 1: for the game? If you worked at a business, Eddie,

Speaker 1: And my company makes ten dollars a year. Just follow

00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:53,359
Speaker 1: Eddie's Cattle Company the next year made twenty bucks for

572
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:56,199
Speaker 1: a whole year. You like doubled, right, Hey, yeah, you

00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 1: just you've signed and uh different little deals for your

575
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 1: cattle to go to certain places. Now, now five years later,

576
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:08,160
Speaker 1: Eddi's Cattle Company has gone from ten bucks a year

577
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:11,760
Speaker 1: to a thousand dollars. Let's go, you're there's so much

578
00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,880
Speaker 1: money coming into the cattle company. Now, do you think

579
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:16,720
Speaker 1: that the people that are doing the work to make

580
00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:20,359
Speaker 1: that money deserve to be paid more? You're asking me,

581
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,440
Speaker 1: as the owner of my Eddie's cattle come asking you,

582
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:23,920
Speaker 1: as a person sitting right here, do you think that

583
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:26,520
Speaker 1: the people that are actually making the doing the work

584
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 1: should be paid a little more for the job that

585
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 1: they're doing. This making more money, treat your people right, Yes,

586
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,080
Speaker 1: they will work harder for you. So this is a

587
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:36,480
Speaker 1: macro perspective of that. Yes, he's been dragged through the mud.

588
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 1: That's not that's not him though he's basically a free agent.

589
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:42,240
Speaker 1: He let that be known. People were bidding for him. Um,

590
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 1: players should make money because the n C Double A

591
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 1: is college football is cru NFL been killing it for

592
00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:50,920
Speaker 1: a while. They're making so much money in college football,

593
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:52,840
Speaker 1: the TV deals. You've had to have a billion dollar

594
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 1: Big ten deal, a bit with a b billion dollar

595
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,480
Speaker 1: and so. But the only people who shouldn't get paid

596
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:04,000
Speaker 1: to the people they're actually doing the work. So I'm

597
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:06,959
Speaker 1: a big We should pay people for what they're doing.

598
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 1: And I I understand people are going with this. College football

599
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:11,800
Speaker 1: like what he used to be. The only other thing

600
00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 1: that I could compare it to was the It was

601
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 1: controversial when they started to give athletes scholarships because even

602
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 1: back then they were like, wait, you're gonna pay You're

603
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:22,960
Speaker 1: gonna pay for their college to play. They should just

604
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,280
Speaker 1: play the sport for love of the game. It's the

605
00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 1: same thing. It's just more money and you and more

606
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 1: people know about it now because of social media. You're

607
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 1: you're paying them with a free education. Then college of

608
00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:34,280
Speaker 1: ball didn't make a whole bunch of money, but now

609
00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:37,560
Speaker 1: it's killing And so he was dragged with the mud.

610
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:39,640
Speaker 1: He deserves it, but he also deserves what he gets

611
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,440
Speaker 1: on the other side of the good stuff too. So

612
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:45,960
Speaker 1: that's the name of the game. You're public, you're making money,

613
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:47,760
Speaker 1: you get dragged to I get dressed with the mud

614
00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 1: all time. Do I deserve it? Sometimes? Uh? But I'm

615
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:56,640
Speaker 1: a big n I L fan. I think profit revenue

616
00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 1: sharing will be a thing with players. I think players

617
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:02,160
Speaker 1: should be paid. End. Your question was is it fair

618
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 1: for him? You do you think it's good or bad

619
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 1: for the game. It's good. It's good. They'll figure it out.

620
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:08,440
Speaker 1: It's a wild West right now. It's a little too wild,

621
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 1: but you gotta go full while west before you can

622
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:11,840
Speaker 1: shut it down a little bit true, all right? Right?

623
00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 1: Next question, how is this the fifth tittle tattle or fourth?

624
00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 1: This is the last one, fifth and final one? The

625
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 1: last three champions in college football have come from the SEC,

626
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:21,720
Speaker 1: and Alabama is the favorite. Again, if picking today, are

627
00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:25,680
Speaker 1: you choosing the SEC or the field? Come January? The

628
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:27,760
Speaker 1: SE is probably gonna have one in it. So I'm

629
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:30,239
Speaker 1: just doing odds here, not about Alabama or Georgia. But

630
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 1: if the SEC has this person in the championship game,

631
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:35,560
Speaker 1: that's still fifty fifty. I'm gonna go SEC. I'm big

632
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,960
Speaker 1: SEC homer, But if I'm just doing probabilities, I would

633
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 1: still go SEC. New you said Alabama and Georgia and

634
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 1: that's it versus the field. Maybe I feel a little

635
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 1: different about that because I feel like somebody could squeak

636
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 1: up and probably surprise one of those two teams on

637
00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:52,560
Speaker 1: one of the sides. Possibly surprise those are my two

638
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 1: words I'm using. I don't think they will, but the

639
00:30:55,280 --> 00:31:00,000
Speaker 1: SEC is tough, so I would take the secure alright, Hey,

640
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 1: kick off, Kevin, terrible name, tittle tattle, terrible name for

641
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 1: a segment, but not bad. What the whole segment? Adam

642
00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:07,960
Speaker 1: Blue whistle and he has big balls and he's done though.

643
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:14,760
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, um so. Dan Patrick love him, Dan Patrick

644
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 1: Radio Show, Dan Patrick, ESPN, Dan Patrick Sun Night Football.

645
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 1: I was honored it was amazing, And here's my interview

646
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:24,120
Speaker 1: with Dan Patrick. Whoa Dan, good to talk to you.

647
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:27,760
Speaker 1: I'm big, just massive fan, just a massive, massive fans.

648
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 1: So you know when they said you would actually spend

649
00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 1: a few minutes with me, I I was shocked first

650
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 1: of all and elated. So just humble thank you before

651
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 1: we start. Great, great, glad to Glad to hill. You know,

652
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:42,920
Speaker 1: whenever I'm doing an interview and in one capacity or

653
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:44,760
Speaker 1: the other, I do them all the day, all the time,

654
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:46,960
Speaker 1: either on the radio show or on a TV show,

655
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:50,920
Speaker 1: But I it starts to just be a wheel and

656
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:53,680
Speaker 1: you're just doing them as they come, and you rarely

657
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:56,200
Speaker 1: get excited. Sometimes you're a little more up for one

658
00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:57,600
Speaker 1: because you know the value of a bit. At this

659
00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:01,320
Speaker 1: point in your career, do you still get about interviews

660
00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:04,160
Speaker 1: and with who especially? I think if you have somebody

661
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:06,640
Speaker 1: who's going to be honest with you, because you want

662
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:09,560
Speaker 1: to make sure you're not wasting the time of your audience.

663
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:11,960
Speaker 1: And I always want to make sure if I have

664
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 1: somebody on maybe you don't know who they are, but

665
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:15,800
Speaker 1: I'm gonna bring out something in them that you would

666
00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:18,440
Speaker 1: be interested in. I like the challenge of doing that,

667
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 1: but it's the person who's going to be honest or

668
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 1: most honest that I find interesting. It's the person who

669
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:27,360
Speaker 1: tries to dodge what you're asking, doesn't give you much,

670
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 1: wants to be very vanilla. Then that's where it gets

671
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 1: really tedious. Give me an example, somebody who's great that

672
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,400
Speaker 1: you know, all right, we're gonna do it, and they're

673
00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:38,840
Speaker 1: gonna be awesome. Charles Barkley is always great, Reggie Miller

674
00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 1: is always great. I find that if you know my

675
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:45,960
Speaker 1: guests know if they come on the show that this

676
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 1: is what we're asking them to do, don't come on

677
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:52,719
Speaker 1: the show unless you're ready to really give something, reveals something.

678
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:55,840
Speaker 1: But it's up to me sometimes to kind of extract

679
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:59,959
Speaker 1: them that from these guys. They get interviewed more than anybody.

680
00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:03,240
Speaker 1: When you think about it, athletes are interviewed more than anybody.

681
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 1: You know where they are, you know, every day at practice, um,

682
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:09,960
Speaker 1: you know, before a game, after a game with the NBA.

683
00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:13,520
Speaker 1: You have to have an approach that is refreshing to

684
00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:16,440
Speaker 1: them and their competitors. And I find I got to

685
00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:18,880
Speaker 1: compete with you to get an answer out of you.

686
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:22,360
Speaker 1: John McEnroe said, you gotta work harder to get a

687
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:24,720
Speaker 1: better answer out of me. And he was right. This

688
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:28,160
Speaker 1: was early in my career and I never forgot that

689
00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:30,640
Speaker 1: sometimes you gotta work harder to get a better answer

690
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:32,760
Speaker 1: out of somebody. Do you feel like you're a better

691
00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:37,640
Speaker 1: interviewee because you interview so many people? Because you know,

692
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:41,080
Speaker 1: what I'll do is all critique your questions while you're

693
00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:44,960
Speaker 1: asking them, and it's not fair to you. But I've

694
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:48,080
Speaker 1: given so much thought to interviewing. When I was at ESPN,

695
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:53,000
Speaker 1: I did a seminar that was five days, eight hours

696
00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:57,600
Speaker 1: each day on interviewing. It was the best thing that

697
00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,120
Speaker 1: ever happened to me in my career. But it's the

698
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:02,880
Speaker 1: worst thing when you start to listen to radio or

699
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:06,200
Speaker 1: you listen to somebody on TV doing interviews, because you're

700
00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:09,960
Speaker 1: listening for the things that they're not doing what you

701
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 1: were told to do to bring out a good interview.

702
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 1: Open ended questions, short question, You know that first question,

703
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:19,560
Speaker 1: what are you setting up for the next question? For

704
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:21,680
Speaker 1: your last question? What are you trying to get at?

705
00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:24,719
Speaker 1: Like there's a strategy to it. And I wouldn't have

706
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:28,360
Speaker 1: known this until I took this class. It was a

707
00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,440
Speaker 1: guy named John Swatsky out of Canada. It was the

708
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:35,520
Speaker 1: master of the interview, and I was fascinated by it. Uh.

709
00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:38,320
Speaker 1: I don't know who else, if anybody else was at ESPN.

710
00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 1: They they were mad at me because I wanted to

711
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,040
Speaker 1: bring this guy in to teach us how to interview,

712
00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:46,400
Speaker 1: because I saw an article and people are like kicking

713
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:49,960
Speaker 1: and screaming going to this seminar, and they didn't realize

714
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:51,719
Speaker 1: that I'm the reason why they were going there, because

715
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:53,400
Speaker 1: I wanted this guy to come in and help us.

716
00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:55,800
Speaker 1: You know, when you talk about the ESPN stuff, and

717
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:57,560
Speaker 1: I don't have a lot of questions about that, and

718
00:34:57,560 --> 00:34:59,799
Speaker 1: I still don't, but it makes me think about, you know,

719
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,799
Speaker 1: my whole lifetime of watching you on ESPN and even

720
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:04,640
Speaker 1: Rock and Roll Jeopardy, which I was a big Jeopardy

721
00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 1: guys and a music guy obviously, and then you know,

722
00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:09,560
Speaker 1: watch on Sunday nights and I would come home from

723
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:12,320
Speaker 1: the radio show and watch your radio show, you and

724
00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 1: all the dan neds, like just a massive fan. But

725
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 1: you know, I've started to realize that I, as a

726
00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:19,799
Speaker 1: public figure, people think they know me at times more

727
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,919
Speaker 1: than they actually do, and they'll come up and and so,

728
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:24,879
Speaker 1: you know, one of the things that I'm most curious about.

729
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:27,080
Speaker 1: It's like if you go to your house and I

730
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:28,840
Speaker 1: feel like I know, yeah, but I obviously don't on

731
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,319
Speaker 1: a personal level, like in your house, what is your

732
00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:34,920
Speaker 1: favorite picture in your house? Which if I just asked

733
00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 1: that question, what is it, who's in it? I'm a

734
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:40,520
Speaker 1: big fan of the artist Wolf Khan. He passed away.

735
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 1: I think he was just over the age of ninety.

736
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:45,799
Speaker 1: And you can't be in a bad mood when you

737
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:49,600
Speaker 1: look at a painting of Wolf Khan. Now pictures. Uh,

738
00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:52,680
Speaker 1: there's a picture of my daughter in the library where

739
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:58,960
Speaker 1: she's in Galway and she's in a mud puddle and

740
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:02,399
Speaker 1: she's probably eleven years of age, and she's got mud

741
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:04,279
Speaker 1: all over her. She's thrown mud in the air, and

742
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:06,919
Speaker 1: she's got the biggest smile and it's one of those

743
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 1: moments that you just go that person is having a

744
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:14,920
Speaker 1: great day. So I tend to gravitate towards you feel

745
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:17,560
Speaker 1: better after you you see that picture and you see

746
00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:20,560
Speaker 1: a painting from Wolf Kan. What about if I ask

747
00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:23,879
Speaker 1: about sports, what personal sports picture do you have? Either

748
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:26,759
Speaker 1: you're somewhere with someone that you look at and it's

749
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:29,880
Speaker 1: not it doesn't mean as much because obviously that's your daughter.

750
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:32,359
Speaker 1: But it's like, man, that was a great moment, either

751
00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:34,759
Speaker 1: in sports life or my life. I was in a

752
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:39,319
Speaker 1: boxing ring. It was fight night in Arizona, and I

753
00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:43,600
Speaker 1: was the host and we were honoring Mohammed Ali and

754
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:47,520
Speaker 1: we were going to give him this ring, and Mohammed

755
00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:49,920
Speaker 1: Ali is standing next to me waiting for me to

756
00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:53,600
Speaker 1: give him this ring. And I'm describing to the audience

757
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:56,719
Speaker 1: what this ring signifies, and I'm going to hand this

758
00:36:56,760 --> 00:37:01,800
Speaker 1: to Mohammed Ali. And you know that this was probably

759
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 1: a twenty years ago, but you know Parkinson's the onset

760
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:10,759
Speaker 1: of Parkinson had started there. And I just remember in

761
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:14,440
Speaker 1: the moment, I'm thinking I'm gonna give a ring to

762
00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:18,960
Speaker 1: Mohammed Ali, and I sort of fanboyd that. I was like,

763
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:21,120
Speaker 1: I gotta get this out of my head, because I

764
00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:23,600
Speaker 1: sometimes that's the problem. I have too many things I'm

765
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:26,000
Speaker 1: thinking of when I'm doing something that I shouldn't be

766
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:29,200
Speaker 1: thinking about. But that moment where I look and I go,

767
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:31,680
Speaker 1: who would have thought that a kid came from a

768
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:36,320
Speaker 1: small town in Ohio is there with Mohammed Ali, honoring

769
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:39,960
Speaker 1: Mohammed Ali, And I'm it's never lost on me where

770
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:42,520
Speaker 1: I came from and growing up in a big family,

771
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:47,399
Speaker 1: that I came a long way, but that you can

772
00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:50,440
Speaker 1: come from a small town where you never would have

773
00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:52,359
Speaker 1: thought you've gotten there. So it brings out a lot

774
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:56,960
Speaker 1: of different thoughts memories there of you're still this kid

775
00:37:56,960 --> 00:38:00,279
Speaker 1: who was from Mason, Ohio, but you got here. Don't

776
00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:03,960
Speaker 1: forget where you came from from Mountain Pine, Arkansas, population

777
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:09,359
Speaker 1: seven uh So similar instances, you know, growing up and

778
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:12,439
Speaker 1: there wasn't a lot of resource where I came from.

779
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:16,319
Speaker 1: So how what showed you and who showed you that

780
00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:19,239
Speaker 1: there was actually a path to greater even though you

781
00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:23,000
Speaker 1: couldn't quite define greater. I think I was too naive

782
00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:27,480
Speaker 1: or stupid to let reality sink in and that you

783
00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:30,680
Speaker 1: can't do this. I didn't have a plan b So

784
00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:32,400
Speaker 1: when people said, oh, if you weren't gonna be a

785
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:34,040
Speaker 1: sports conister, what would you be? And I'd be like,

786
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:37,319
Speaker 1: I don't, I don't know. I'm guessing bartender. But I

787
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:41,680
Speaker 1: I didn't know, and I had been rejected in quite

788
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 1: a few places. I lost a job, local job in Dayton, Ohio,

789
00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:52,240
Speaker 1: and I was distraught. So I'm I'm twenty six seven,

790
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:54,920
Speaker 1: I don't have a full time job in sports, and

791
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:58,040
Speaker 1: that's old in this business to get started, and I

792
00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:02,120
Speaker 1: thought I'm never gonna get I was doing morning drive

793
00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:04,880
Speaker 1: radio rock and roll station, and I thought, this is

794
00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:08,839
Speaker 1: what I'm gonna be doing. And the next girlfriend said,

795
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:10,960
Speaker 1: just come down to Atlanta. I said, day I don't

796
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:13,239
Speaker 1: want to go to Atlanta. She goes, no, just come

797
00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:16,080
Speaker 1: down here. CNN's hiring. I go, I just I lost

798
00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:17,680
Speaker 1: out on a job in Dayton, Ohio. I'm not going

799
00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:21,000
Speaker 1: to get a job at CNN. So I go down there,

800
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:24,160
Speaker 1: lo and behold. I go in there last day I'm

801
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:27,560
Speaker 1: in Atlanta. Give him my resume. Tape guy says, when

802
00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:31,960
Speaker 1: can you start? So if I don't go to Atlanta,

803
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:35,560
Speaker 1: I'm not here. I mean I'm somewhere, but I'm not

804
00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:40,800
Speaker 1: here because CNN. I was there for five years and

805
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:43,880
Speaker 1: after that I went to ESPN for eight team. So

806
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:47,360
Speaker 1: I always tell people right place, right time, But you

807
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:51,160
Speaker 1: better be right about what you have to know, like

808
00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,400
Speaker 1: you have to know it if you get that opportunity.

809
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:56,719
Speaker 1: And I'm sure that at some point somebody wanted to

810
00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:59,239
Speaker 1: see if you knew exactly what you needed to know,

811
00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:03,400
Speaker 1: and you did, or you wouldn't be seated there like

812
00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 1: we get those moments, but be ready for the moment.

813
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:09,319
Speaker 1: And that was something that stayed with me, stays with me.

814
00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:12,040
Speaker 1: I tell that to my kids all the time. Be prepared,

815
00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:15,600
Speaker 1: be overprepared, even if you don't get it, you'll still

816
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:18,440
Speaker 1: show that that person you you showed them respect by

817
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:22,600
Speaker 1: being prepared. You mentioned eighteen years at ESPN, and I

818
00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:24,399
Speaker 1: worked on American Idol for four seasons, and I would

819
00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 1: talk to some of the old contestants from back when

820
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:29,680
Speaker 1: Idol was so big, and but they said they didn't

821
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:31,799
Speaker 1: know it, they couldn't feel it because they were in it. Now.

822
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:36,600
Speaker 1: ESPN was a culture, especially for me, Was that situation

823
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:39,319
Speaker 1: similar because you guys weren't changing culture. Did you know

824
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:42,480
Speaker 1: it and could you feel it then? Or was it

825
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:46,440
Speaker 1: its own bubble? We were cordoned off, absolutely, and I

826
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:50,040
Speaker 1: think that's by design by management. They didn't want us

827
00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:54,640
Speaker 1: to be bigger than those four letters, not that we

828
00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:57,880
Speaker 1: could be, but they didn't want us coloring outside the lines.

829
00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:01,799
Speaker 1: Management even told me on one occasion, we don't want

830
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:06,080
Speaker 1: another Chris Berman, because Berman is the most important person

831
00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:09,359
Speaker 1: in the history of ESPN. But he was sort of,

832
00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:12,560
Speaker 1: you know, a hot air balloon that was higher than

833
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:16,359
Speaker 1: everybody else but still tethered. And they didn't want that.

834
00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:18,560
Speaker 1: They didn't want that to happen to me or Keith

835
00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:21,200
Speaker 1: Oberman or Stewart Scott or whoever you want to throw

836
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:26,160
Speaker 1: in there. So they didn't want you to be a personality.

837
00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:29,319
Speaker 1: Um So I think that that was kind of eye

838
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:35,960
Speaker 1: opening that we were getting honored. Mentioned. Uh, people came

839
00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:38,160
Speaker 1: up to us when we saw them when we were

840
00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:41,000
Speaker 1: out of events, but we weren't in New York or

841
00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:44,480
Speaker 1: l A. We're in Bristol, Connecticut. We didn't run into anybody,

842
00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:48,239
Speaker 1: but when we did, then you heard the impact that

843
00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:52,800
Speaker 1: we were having. And you kind of juxtaposed that too

844
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:57,480
Speaker 1: management that we never knew our ratings. They never told us.

845
00:41:57,600 --> 00:42:00,000
Speaker 1: They didn't. They didn't want to empower you and say,

846
00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:03,759
Speaker 1: you guys are really kicking ass here. It was like, yeah,

847
00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:06,480
Speaker 1: you guys solid and improving, you know, kind of doing

848
00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:08,680
Speaker 1: a good job there. You're like, damn, I thought I

849
00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:12,239
Speaker 1: thought we were good. But that was that was eye

850
00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:15,120
Speaker 1: opening there that management wanted to kind of keep us

851
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:19,120
Speaker 1: under their thumb. Final question about the ESPN days and

852
00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:21,359
Speaker 1: as far as when who is would you say as

853
00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:24,759
Speaker 1: your BFF. Now from those days, if you had to

854
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:28,680
Speaker 1: pick one, oh, I would say that I correspond with

855
00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:32,239
Speaker 1: Rich Eyes and more than anybody else, the people I

856
00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:41,240
Speaker 1: really enjoyed were producers, associate producers, the makeup people, camera people.

857
00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:43,640
Speaker 1: Those are the people I always enjoyed being around. Nobody

858
00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:46,480
Speaker 1: wants to be around talent because all we do is

859
00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:50,240
Speaker 1: talk about ourselves. I wanted to be around the people

860
00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:53,560
Speaker 1: who were just normal or as normal as possible in

861
00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:56,520
Speaker 1: our business. And those are the people I'm still in

862
00:42:56,560 --> 00:43:00,879
Speaker 1: touch with. Uh more the producers than the talent there,

863
00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:05,759
Speaker 1: but probably Rich Eyes. Where does conference realignment end or

864
00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:09,040
Speaker 1: where is it in five years? From where you sit

865
00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:11,920
Speaker 1: right now, I still think we're headed towards an a

866
00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:15,359
Speaker 1: f C NFC model with college football, where we just say,

867
00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:18,640
Speaker 1: let's let's pull back the curtain. Let's not kill anybody.

868
00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:23,040
Speaker 1: This is big time business. Have revenue sharing, UM gonna

869
00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:27,120
Speaker 1: treat them like their professionals, which they are. And I

870
00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:31,280
Speaker 1: think you might have thirty teams in the NFC version

871
00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:34,880
Speaker 1: and thirty she has sixty teams. Let's say a sixteen

872
00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:39,880
Speaker 1: team playoff, and you know you might have relegation where

873
00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:44,440
Speaker 1: maybe the sixty team drops out with the team that

874
00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:47,400
Speaker 1: won the national championship in one double A or or

875
00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:50,920
Speaker 1: something that creates excitement at the top and the bottom.

876
00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:55,080
Speaker 1: But I do think we're headed towards let's just have

877
00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:59,120
Speaker 1: the fifty or sixty sixty best college football teams actually

878
00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:02,280
Speaker 1: compete for a national championship and then you have everybody

879
00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:05,520
Speaker 1: else after that with the fluidity of realignment or even

880
00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:07,960
Speaker 1: in I L, like let's do five years in the future.

881
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:10,920
Speaker 1: There what's different about the n I L structure in

882
00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:14,760
Speaker 1: five years? If you're just playing psychic then is today? Well,

883
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:18,440
Speaker 1: the coaches have to embrace this. You know, when Kirby's

884
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:21,840
Speaker 1: Smart at Georgia signs a ten million dollar a year contract,

885
00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:25,480
Speaker 1: but then bemoans the fact that we're paying these players

886
00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:29,440
Speaker 1: a hundred thousand dollars or two hundred thousand dollars, like,

887
00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:32,600
Speaker 1: have a dose in reality here. Now you're getting paid

888
00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:35,840
Speaker 1: and you don't want them to get paid. Your job

889
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:38,760
Speaker 1: is tougher because of name, image and like, plain and simple,

890
00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:42,040
Speaker 1: these coaches, I don't care if it's Nick Saban, Kirby Smart,

891
00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:45,160
Speaker 1: whoever it is. This makes your you know, the transfer

892
00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:48,200
Speaker 1: portal name image and likeness makes it difficult. But when

893
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:50,720
Speaker 1: the source says to me, you know, the going rate

894
00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:54,040
Speaker 1: for a running back is this price, the going rate

895
00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:56,200
Speaker 1: for a quarterback is this, and the going rate for

896
00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:59,600
Speaker 1: a wide It's almost like you have a list, like

897
00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:03,080
Speaker 1: a men you where you go? How much is the stake?

898
00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:06,879
Speaker 1: It's this, um you know, how much is that? It's

899
00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:10,400
Speaker 1: that that's where we're headed with all. We're already there.

900
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:14,960
Speaker 1: So I think embracing name, image and likeness, maybe you

901
00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:18,760
Speaker 1: kind of put them all under the same umbrella. Maybe

902
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:21,480
Speaker 1: you're you're paying them. Maybe there's a salary cap that

903
00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:25,560
Speaker 1: you have. I got. You can't say that won't happen

904
00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:27,799
Speaker 1: because look at where we are now. Who would have

905
00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:30,640
Speaker 1: thought Texas and Oklahoma would be in the sec U,

906
00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:33,839
Speaker 1: c l A and USC going to the big tent. See,

907
00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:36,520
Speaker 1: you can't say, well, I don't ever happen, because in

908
00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:39,680
Speaker 1: college football it could happen. And I think, as we

909
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:43,280
Speaker 1: move forward with this, how much are the players involved

910
00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:47,120
Speaker 1: in this? Do we come up with legislation that limits this?

911
00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:50,759
Speaker 1: I mean, you still have to declare this is income here,

912
00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:54,640
Speaker 1: so it's got to be above board. And I think

913
00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:57,600
Speaker 1: that that kind of takes away the If you take

914
00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:00,359
Speaker 1: away name, image, and likeness. Bobby, you're going to have

915
00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:03,200
Speaker 1: back to the old days of cheating. This is just

916
00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:05,360
Speaker 1: above board. It's like, hey, would you give him a

917
00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:09,040
Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars? Okay? Whereas before would be like do

918
00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:11,239
Speaker 1: you hear what Eric Dickerson got at s m U

919
00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:15,400
Speaker 1: gave him a trans am and they gave his MoMA house.

920
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:19,440
Speaker 1: You know that that was always the kind of whispers

921
00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:22,239
Speaker 1: behind all of the Now it's above board, Like Zion Williamson,

922
00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:24,920
Speaker 1: I don't know what he got a duke, but he

923
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:32,320
Speaker 1: got something right, Yeah, yeah, but you know these guys

924
00:46:32,360 --> 00:46:35,160
Speaker 1: get money. It may not be from the school, the coach,

925
00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:38,720
Speaker 1: but the shoe company. So it's here. It's been here

926
00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:42,520
Speaker 1: now at least it's above board. But five years down

927
00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:45,120
Speaker 1: the road, I don't know what the goling salary is

928
00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:50,400
Speaker 1: going to be. But a a star quarterback, you know

929
00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:53,840
Speaker 1: he's gonna get a NFL like they're making more money

930
00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:59,040
Speaker 1: when you factor that in, Alabama's quarterback Heisman Trophy winner

931
00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:03,280
Speaker 1: made more than the previous quarterback at Alabama, Jalen Hurts

932
00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:06,560
Speaker 1: playing in the NFL, So he makes more money at

933
00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:10,719
Speaker 1: Alabama than Jalen Hurts does in the NFL. Crazy, But

934
00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:13,520
Speaker 1: that's the reality we have right now. And the fact

935
00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:17,040
Speaker 1: that it's snuck up on all these chancellors and presidents

936
00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:20,920
Speaker 1: and athletic directors is like mind boggling because it was

937
00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:24,360
Speaker 1: there to see the final three questions. Okay, talking about quarterbacks,

938
00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:27,000
Speaker 1: you mentioned Arch, there's not a lot of not a

939
00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:29,839
Speaker 1: lot of Arch not just tape, but not a lot

940
00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:33,200
Speaker 1: of Arch data. He's not competing against other quarterbacks at

941
00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:36,560
Speaker 1: that high school level. He's not going to camps where

942
00:47:36,640 --> 00:47:39,160
Speaker 1: what do you see happening with Arch Manning. Well, that's

943
00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:42,040
Speaker 1: a lot of hype. You know, Bryce Harper lived up

944
00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:44,879
Speaker 1: to it. Lebron James lived up to it. There there

945
00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:48,000
Speaker 1: have been players who live up to the hype, but

946
00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:51,680
Speaker 1: as far as an NFL quarterback hype, boy, this is

947
00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:54,920
Speaker 1: up there. I mean, this is bigger than Eli or

948
00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:59,040
Speaker 1: even Peyton the hype living up to you know, Archie

949
00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:01,600
Speaker 1: Manning at Old Us when he was up for the

950
00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:04,680
Speaker 1: Heisman Trophy. I just wonder, can you be good enough

951
00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:07,880
Speaker 1: where people go? Man, he's everything we thought he was

952
00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:11,120
Speaker 1: going to be, Like Tiger Woods was everything we thought

953
00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:13,719
Speaker 1: he was going to be, and then some Serena Williams

954
00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:16,560
Speaker 1: everything we thought and then some I don't know if Arch,

955
00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:21,400
Speaker 1: because it's based off of the people around you. He's

956
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:23,680
Speaker 1: relying on that. Bryce Harper goes to the plate, it's

957
00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:26,520
Speaker 1: Bryce Harper. Lebron James can have the ball in his hands.

958
00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:30,040
Speaker 1: Tiger has a club in his hand. You know, Serena

959
00:48:30,080 --> 00:48:33,239
Speaker 1: has her tennis racket. Arch is gonna have to how

960
00:48:33,239 --> 00:48:37,040
Speaker 1: good is his offensive line, how's goods his wide receivers

961
00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:39,840
Speaker 1: like those? Is his defense any good to stop anybody?

962
00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:42,160
Speaker 1: Those are the things that you have to factor in it.

963
00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:44,000
Speaker 1: And I wonder if you'll be able to live up

964
00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:47,160
Speaker 1: to that hype. I doubt it because that hype is

965
00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:49,920
Speaker 1: so much, so big. You mentioned the word source. How

966
00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:52,440
Speaker 1: hard is it to have a source that's telling you

967
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:54,040
Speaker 1: something but you can't say it, and you almost have

968
00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:55,960
Speaker 1: to act like you don't know it. For the most part,

969
00:48:56,080 --> 00:48:58,040
Speaker 1: I don't want to know if I can't use it.

970
00:48:58,080 --> 00:49:01,000
Speaker 1: I say that too, And I'm fortunate having been in

971
00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:04,040
Speaker 1: this business for almost forty years. You meet people that

972
00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:07,400
Speaker 1: you trust because you can go back to them or

973
00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:09,520
Speaker 1: they'll come. They'll they'll let you know if you're right

974
00:49:09,600 --> 00:49:12,799
Speaker 1: or wrong on something. But I I don't want to

975
00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:15,440
Speaker 1: know something that I can't even hint at because then

976
00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:18,440
Speaker 1: I'm not being Then it's gossipy and I don't want

977
00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:21,400
Speaker 1: to do that. But it is a tough situation to

978
00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:23,759
Speaker 1: be in. Sometimes if somebody goes, hey, you can't use it,

979
00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:26,520
Speaker 1: I don't, then don't tell me because I don't want

980
00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:29,440
Speaker 1: to know. But when they're like, you didn't get it

981
00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:34,200
Speaker 1: from me, which is different, but sources can be tricky.

982
00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:37,040
Speaker 1: Last question, and this has really been a treat for me,

983
00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:39,680
Speaker 1: way more for so for you. And I'm sure you've

984
00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:42,640
Speaker 1: rated this and given it a low grade what you do.

985
00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:44,560
Speaker 1: And as soon as you said that, I'm like, god, dang,

986
00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:46,000
Speaker 1: And now I am going to actually feel like I

987
00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:47,759
Speaker 1: bean critique during the interview. I didn't feel like that

988
00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:51,200
Speaker 1: going in. But final question is, uh, you know, I'm

989
00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:54,120
Speaker 1: about to go through a big contract negotiation here with

990
00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:58,239
Speaker 1: a right so you know, and it's it's it's it's

991
00:49:58,320 --> 00:50:00,520
Speaker 1: quite the monster. I'm not gonna lie to you. What's

992
00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:03,040
Speaker 1: what's the What am I? What am I not knowing

993
00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:05,719
Speaker 1: to ask for? What is it you don't have? I

994
00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:09,000
Speaker 1: don't know. I'm pretty good. Yes, I always look at

995
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:12,080
Speaker 1: it this way. I love for fifteen years being at

996
00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:15,319
Speaker 1: ESPN and I could have gotten jobs outside of it,

997
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:17,800
Speaker 1: but I loved what I was doing. But you can't

998
00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:20,719
Speaker 1: tell them that you love it so much that you

999
00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:24,120
Speaker 1: don't factor in what you're worth outside of what you're doing.

1000
00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:27,920
Speaker 1: If that makes sense that, hey, on the open market,

1001
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:30,439
Speaker 1: what would I be worth? Take care of me here?

1002
00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:34,200
Speaker 1: And I always took less, but I didn't have any

1003
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:36,880
Speaker 1: I didn't want to do anything else. So do what

1004
00:50:37,040 --> 00:50:40,439
Speaker 1: you love. And it's really hard to find that because

1005
00:50:40,520 --> 00:50:43,479
Speaker 1: if you let money be the carrot that's in front

1006
00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:47,600
Speaker 1: of you, you'll always chase it and you'll never be satisfied.

1007
00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:51,200
Speaker 1: But if you have people you like you've got, you know,

1008
00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:54,640
Speaker 1: they make sure that the people who are surrounding you

1009
00:50:54,680 --> 00:50:58,240
Speaker 1: are good people, fun people. I love seeing my guys

1010
00:50:58,280 --> 00:51:02,160
Speaker 1: every single day. We just laugh. I mean, you're serious

1011
00:51:02,160 --> 00:51:04,719
Speaker 1: when you need to be, but we have fun. I

1012
00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:08,560
Speaker 1: enjoy them. And it's twenty years for some of these guys.

1013
00:51:09,160 --> 00:51:11,319
Speaker 1: But I think that's the moment you know that you've

1014
00:51:11,360 --> 00:51:14,040
Speaker 1: got to kind of go. And if you say to

1015
00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:17,920
Speaker 1: your wife, what do you think, because sometimes it's my

1016
00:51:18,000 --> 00:51:20,440
Speaker 1: wife is the smartest person, and you know, you get

1017
00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:22,360
Speaker 1: somebody on the outside kind of looking at all this

1018
00:51:22,640 --> 00:51:25,440
Speaker 1: because we get too close to the sun and you

1019
00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:27,600
Speaker 1: don't want to be icarous here and you know, go

1020
00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:31,239
Speaker 1: down in flame. So do what you love as long

1021
00:51:31,280 --> 00:51:33,719
Speaker 1: as you can do it, or you can just take

1022
00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:35,600
Speaker 1: a shipload of money and then running with it. But yeah,

1023
00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:42,200
Speaker 1: I was hoping for like airplane. That's I'm just massive fan,

1024
00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:45,240
Speaker 1: just massive, And thank you for your time and um

1025
00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:46,880
Speaker 1: you know that's all. And I know you've got a

1026
00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:48,520
Speaker 1: busy day of head so thank you very much. And

1027
00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:50,799
Speaker 1: one day, hopefully I hope I can touch you soon.

1028
00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:55,640
Speaker 1: I would Uh yeah, I hope we crossed paths. Congratulations

1029
00:51:55,640 --> 00:51:58,799
Speaker 1: on all your success, and I think that it's not

1030
00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:01,840
Speaker 1: by accident, you know, but I think that that's important

1031
00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:05,240
Speaker 1: as you move move forward, don't forget the kid from

1032
00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:08,520
Speaker 1: a small town in Arkansas, because stay in humble, because

1033
00:52:08,560 --> 00:52:11,960
Speaker 1: this business will bite you in the ass quickly. Thank you, Dan,

Speaker 1: and you can tell me if I'm a weirdo or not.

1043
00:52:36,440 --> 00:52:38,319
Speaker 1: And I want to pull up exactly what I got here.

1044
00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:44,240
Speaker 1: But there was an estate sale from a former Arkansas

1045
00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:46,960
Speaker 1: and Adam, you're almost eliminated from this because of your bias.

1046
00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:51,560
Speaker 1: There was an estate sale from a former Arkansas UH sportscaster,

1047
00:52:51,880 --> 00:52:54,000
Speaker 1: like probably the most famous in my life. He died

1048
00:52:54,080 --> 00:52:56,360
Speaker 1: years ago in a car car wreck, as Paul Eels.

1049
00:52:56,640 --> 00:53:00,600
Speaker 1: He died, and so his I guess why his family

1050
00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:03,600
Speaker 1: they auctioned off a bunch of his stuff, and so

1051
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:07,440
Speaker 1: I just told about it. So I went over to it.

1052
00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:11,759
Speaker 1: How about all kinds of stuff? Oh my gosh, Mike,

1053
00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:16,560
Speaker 1: did you just laugh at that? I bought all kinds

1054
00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:20,000
Speaker 1: of stuff like Paul El's estate sale? Um, what do

1055
00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:22,479
Speaker 1: you mean? How? I'm like, how much stuff did you buy? Well?

1056
00:53:22,719 --> 00:53:25,960
Speaker 1: I bought like a couple in the box still Arkansas

1057
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:29,840

1073
00:54:15,680 --> 00:54:18,319
Speaker 1: through a Sportscasters estate sale and bought a bunch of

1078
00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:34,799
Speaker 1: as you said your childhood growing up. He was a

1079
00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:36,960
Speaker 1: big impact in your childhood and your big sports fan,

1080
00:54:37,040 --> 00:54:40,480

1083
00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:49,399

1084
00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:52,480
Speaker 1: know what that means. It's fort hell. Nolan Richardson's basketball

1085
00:54:52,520 --> 00:54:54,279
Speaker 1: they play the full court pressed the whole time. The

1086
00:54:54,320 --> 00:54:56,239
Speaker 1: whole game, they would just run people off the court.

1087
00:54:56,440 --> 00:54:59,200
Speaker 1: I bought the two. Yeah, it makes her a good

1088
00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:02,640
Speaker 1: story if nothing else. He died. I bought it. I

1089
00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:05,279
Speaker 1: should get it in the next few days, and I

1090
00:55:05,280 --> 00:55:07,239
Speaker 1: think it's pretty cool. Most importantly, what does your wife

1091
00:55:07,239 --> 00:55:11,560
Speaker 1: think about all this? And her, well, I didn't tell

1092
00:55:11,560 --> 00:55:12,960
Speaker 1: her already bought it all and it was already on

1093
00:55:12,960 --> 00:55:17,200
Speaker 1: the way because I did tell her, But in her

1094
00:55:17,239 --> 00:55:19,200
Speaker 1: response was why what are you gonna do with it?

1095
00:55:19,840 --> 00:55:21,000
Speaker 1: And I was like, I just want to have it,

1096
00:55:21,640 --> 00:55:24,960
Speaker 1: and she was like okay, and so I I had.

1097
00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:27,960
Speaker 1: And she said, look, if I didn't know you were

1098
00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:32,239
Speaker 1: so responsible with the money, I would go, why are

1099
00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:33,960
Speaker 1: you buying that? You just wasted money? She was I

1100
00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:36,400
Speaker 1: know you're responsible, but I also know you're extra rabbid,

1101
00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:39,400
Speaker 1: and that's just what I deal with every day. So

1102
00:55:39,440 --> 00:55:40,440
Speaker 1: I will bring it in and let you guys know.

1103
00:55:40,480 --> 00:55:42,000
Speaker 1: Imnbe let you touch some of us. Okay, cool, I

1104
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:46,440
Speaker 1: want to touch the barbies. One final one here Costco

1105
00:55:46,560 --> 00:55:49,120
Speaker 1: selling individual game football tickets in South Carolina where you

1106
00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:50,600
Speaker 1: can go through Costco and they have boxes and it's

1107
00:55:50,600 --> 00:55:52,879
Speaker 1: like buy individual game tickets, which I was pretty legit

1108
00:55:53,239 --> 00:55:56,560
Speaker 1: because it's like, hey, buy individual game ticket. Usually you're like,

1109
00:55:56,600 --> 00:55:58,440
Speaker 1: I don't know if you have a casual fan, I

1110
00:55:58,680 --> 00:56:00,319
Speaker 1: can get my phone out of there. But if you're

1111
00:56:00,320 --> 00:56:02,200
Speaker 1: going through their inner package at Costco and you're in

1112
00:56:02,200 --> 00:56:03,680
Speaker 1: South Carolina and you're like, oh, I like to go

1113
00:56:03,719 --> 00:56:06,080
Speaker 1: to this game, it's tangible, you can buy it. That's

1114
00:56:06,080 --> 00:56:08,080
Speaker 1: pretty cool. People were giving a crap, but that was brilliant.

1115
00:56:08,280 --> 00:56:09,839
Speaker 1: So if you're in South Carolina, would go a game

1116
00:56:09,840 --> 00:56:13,120
Speaker 1: called game and they may actually be pretty good this year.

1117
00:56:13,640 --> 00:56:16,759
Speaker 1: We shall see. They played well last year. At the

1118
00:56:16,840 --> 00:56:18,319
Speaker 1: end of the year, they have a good coach. We'll

1119
00:56:18,320 --> 00:56:23,200
Speaker 1: Spencer Relligan a really good quarterback. Regardless of what happened,

1120
00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:25,360
Speaker 1: he's still a really good quarterback. We'll see what happens

1121
00:56:25,360 --> 00:56:28,560
Speaker 1: in that system. Um So those are those two. We're

1122
00:56:28,600 --> 00:56:30,839
Speaker 1: gonna get to the Sam Pittman interview. Now, we didn't

1123
00:56:30,840 --> 00:56:32,640
Speaker 1: talk a lot about Arkansas specifically, but he is the

1124
00:56:32,680 --> 00:56:35,760
Speaker 1: head football coach the Unversity of Arkansas and it's awesome

1125
00:56:35,760 --> 00:56:37,320
Speaker 1: to have him on. So here it is my interview

1126
00:56:37,360 --> 00:56:41,320
Speaker 1: with Sam Pittman, coach. How are you man? I'm doing great. Hey,

1127
00:56:41,360 --> 00:56:43,120
Speaker 1: I've been good. You know, I've been trying to catch

1128
00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:46,320
Speaker 1: some practice reports. Like at this point before the season starts,

1129
00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:49,960
Speaker 1: as you guys are in camp, are you more nervous excited?

1130
00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:52,800
Speaker 1: Are you always thinking football now? Is there a switch

1131
00:56:52,880 --> 00:56:57,880
Speaker 1: that flips on? Yeah, I'm really excited about the progress

1132
00:56:57,920 --> 00:57:01,640
Speaker 1: of guys from spring Bold and out. I'm really excited

1133
00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:03,680
Speaker 1: to see the new guys, you know, the ones that

1134
00:57:03,760 --> 00:57:07,040
Speaker 1: weren't here. Uh there's only four of them, but you know,

1135
00:57:07,080 --> 00:57:10,480
Speaker 1: the guys that weren't here, Uh, see them participate, see

1136
00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:13,719
Speaker 1: how good they are, see them grow. But yeah, there's

1137
00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:17,240
Speaker 1: a big time excitement around Fatteville and certainly in our

1138
00:57:17,240 --> 00:57:20,800
Speaker 1: building and through our players about you know, the season.

1139
00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:23,160
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna ask you to name anybody, but it's

1140
00:57:23,160 --> 00:57:25,600
Speaker 1: always coming out of high school into college. Heck, just

1141
00:57:25,680 --> 00:57:30,320
Speaker 1: as a student, it's overwhelming much less you're seventeen than

1142
00:57:30,360 --> 00:57:32,720
Speaker 1: you go eighteen years old and now you're you know,

1143
00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:36,320
Speaker 1: competing for a spot against year old. Any of these

1144
00:57:36,360 --> 00:57:39,360
Speaker 1: freshmen in your time that come in, they're very had

1145
00:57:39,520 --> 00:57:41,840
Speaker 1: heralded and they get there and they're like, I don't

1146
00:57:41,840 --> 00:57:45,040
Speaker 1: know what's happening. Like these guys are all bigger and faster. Yeah,

1147
00:57:45,080 --> 00:57:47,440
Speaker 1: it happens all the time. But you know, you can

1148
00:57:47,480 --> 00:57:50,680
Speaker 1: wear yourself out anxiety wise. The first day we went

1149
00:57:50,680 --> 00:57:53,960
Speaker 1: out to practice, there's a hundred fifteen heatd index. It's

1150
00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:57,360
Speaker 1: a hot out there. But you you combine that with

1151
00:57:57,800 --> 00:58:01,720
Speaker 1: a new guy that has an anxiety, Uh, they're all

1152
00:58:01,720 --> 00:58:04,000
Speaker 1: over the place. The next day it was one twelve

1153
00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:07,120
Speaker 1: heat into x but they were much better. Uh. You know,

1154
00:58:07,280 --> 00:58:11,400
Speaker 1: so anxiety that's a little bit Bobby about going over

1155
00:58:11,440 --> 00:58:14,160
Speaker 1: into the stadium on a Saturday. You're gonna have a

1156
00:58:14,200 --> 00:58:18,960
Speaker 1: lot of anxiety if you're not prepared or you don't know. Uh.

1157
00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:22,560
Speaker 1: If you are prepared and you know and and you've

1158
00:58:22,600 --> 00:58:25,080
Speaker 1: taken the I hope we win to I know we're

1159
00:58:25,120 --> 00:58:28,120
Speaker 1: gonna win because I'm prepared in this I think you

1160
00:58:28,280 --> 00:58:30,360
Speaker 1: play a lot better. So these kids that come in,

1161
00:58:30,520 --> 00:58:34,400
Speaker 1: we didn't put a whole lot of value into day one. Uh,

1162
00:58:34,520 --> 00:58:36,880
Speaker 1: day two, a little bit more, Day three, and of

1163
00:58:36,880 --> 00:58:39,120
Speaker 1: course the day will be our fourth practice. If a

1164
00:58:39,200 --> 00:58:42,640
Speaker 1: hundred four star freshman come in, let's play with me here,

1165
00:58:42,800 --> 00:58:44,640
Speaker 1: a hundred four star freshman come in, how many of

1166
00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:48,320
Speaker 1: them will actually have the one be physically and mentally

1167
00:58:48,360 --> 00:58:52,440
Speaker 1: ready to play game one in our league? Ten? Maybe

1168
00:58:53,120 --> 00:58:55,840
Speaker 1: you know, maybe maybe fifteen, not not more than that.

1169
00:58:55,880 --> 00:59:00,600
Speaker 1: I wouldn't think now play play start start play probably

1170
00:59:00,680 --> 00:59:05,440
Speaker 1: ten play play probably uh you know, some type of

1171
00:59:05,440 --> 00:59:08,200
Speaker 1: special team or something like that, maybe thirty five or

1172
00:59:08,240 --> 00:59:11,240
Speaker 1: for in your history of coaching, and it could be

1173
00:59:11,240 --> 00:59:13,920
Speaker 1: at any level. Can you remember a freshman that came

1174
00:59:13,920 --> 00:59:15,960
Speaker 1: in and you're like, oh, this guy's immediately ready to play,

1175
00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:18,960
Speaker 1: and then he immediately played and was awesome. Andrew Thomas.

1176
00:59:19,320 --> 00:59:24,280
Speaker 1: Andrew Thomas was a tackle out of Georgia who I

1177
00:59:24,400 --> 00:59:26,680
Speaker 1: knew he was going to start in our top five

1178
00:59:27,280 --> 00:59:31,640
Speaker 1: fast early. Uh, not necessarily office high school take Bobby,

1179
00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:34,560
Speaker 1: but when he got to campus. Uh he started at

1180
00:59:34,640 --> 00:59:37,840
Speaker 1: right tackle, first game of the year, played three years,

1181
00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:41,000
Speaker 1: fourth pick in the draft. Yeah, that one I that

1182
00:59:41,080 --> 00:59:44,320
Speaker 1: when I knew what is the coolest thing about being

1183
00:59:44,320 --> 00:59:47,080
Speaker 1: a d one coach? That a head coach that you

1184
00:59:47,160 --> 00:59:50,200
Speaker 1: did not know meaning you've coached a lot of places

1185
00:59:50,480 --> 00:59:51,720
Speaker 1: for a lot of time and done a lot of

1186
00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:54,760
Speaker 1: great things, but you still didn't know blank whenever you

1187
00:59:54,800 --> 00:59:58,000
Speaker 1: became the head coach. Verse of parkinsas how awesome going

1188
00:59:58,040 --> 01:00:01,840
Speaker 1: into the locker room is after you beat somebody that named,

1189
01:00:02,000 --> 01:00:04,920
Speaker 1: somebody's got a name, somebody's got a good football team.

1190
01:00:05,080 --> 01:00:08,760
Speaker 1: How many employees that there is in the building. You

1191
01:00:08,800 --> 01:00:12,080
Speaker 1: know that those things were surprising to me, But the

1192
01:00:12,160 --> 01:00:14,640
Speaker 1: awesome part of it was going in and seeing the

1193
01:00:14,720 --> 01:00:18,360
Speaker 1: kid's face after you win a big game. It's incredible, priceless,

1194
01:00:18,560 --> 01:00:21,120
Speaker 1: can put a value on it, It's really cool. So

1195
01:00:21,320 --> 01:00:25,000
Speaker 1: for me, as I was, you know, rising up whatever ranks,

1196
01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:27,120
Speaker 1: I started to learn that the higher I got, it

1197
01:00:27,160 --> 01:00:29,680
Speaker 1: really was I wasn't doing all the little things as much.

1198
01:00:29,680 --> 01:00:33,000
Speaker 1: I was kind of uh doing big things and watching

1199
01:00:33,080 --> 01:00:36,640
Speaker 1: over people that I trusted to do the little things,

1200
01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:40,760
Speaker 1: um not less important things, but just more of the things.

1201
01:00:41,440 --> 01:00:43,439
Speaker 1: Was that an adjustment for you being the head coach

1202
01:00:43,520 --> 01:00:47,320
Speaker 1: is not being so super involved daily in schemes and

1203
01:00:47,560 --> 01:00:50,800
Speaker 1: game plans. I trade our coaches exactly like I wanted

1204
01:00:50,840 --> 01:00:53,520
Speaker 1: to be traded as an assistant. You know, I've got

1205
01:00:53,520 --> 01:00:57,360
Speaker 1: a title. When I was assistant, I wanted to, uh

1206
01:00:57,600 --> 01:01:00,200
Speaker 1: make sure that I did what I was supposed to do.

1207
01:01:00,360 --> 01:01:02,480
Speaker 1: I wanted the coach to think I was the best coach,

1208
01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:06,240
Speaker 1: best recruiter on his staff, most loyal guy. So I

1209
01:01:06,360 --> 01:01:09,200
Speaker 1: treat those guys like that until you know possible they

1210
01:01:09,240 --> 01:01:13,560
Speaker 1: give me a reason not to. But I loved my staff.

1211
01:01:13,560 --> 01:01:17,840
Speaker 1: I've got a really good staff. And and I visit

1212
01:01:17,920 --> 01:01:22,240
Speaker 1: with him. You know, you can really have anxiety over

1213
01:01:22,320 --> 01:01:25,880
Speaker 1: if somebody doesn't talk to you. You know, well, what's

1214
01:01:25,880 --> 01:01:27,600
Speaker 1: he think of me? Am I doing a good job.

1215
01:01:28,080 --> 01:01:31,000
Speaker 1: I let him know. Uh. Visit with the guys all

1216
01:01:31,040 --> 01:01:33,240
Speaker 1: the time. I want them to be as comfortable as

1217
01:01:33,240 --> 01:01:35,760
Speaker 1: they possibly can be, because I want them to to

1218
01:01:35,920 --> 01:01:39,920
Speaker 1: coach out of confidence and not out of nervousness, if

1219
01:01:39,960 --> 01:01:42,160
Speaker 1: that makes sense. When you go into a season like

1220
01:01:42,160 --> 01:01:46,040
Speaker 1: this season, where you've had two seasons in a row

1221
01:01:46,200 --> 01:01:48,800
Speaker 1: where you know there's been a different feeling about the team,

1222
01:01:48,800 --> 01:01:52,400
Speaker 1: obviously you're one, You're the first time head coach, not

1223
01:01:52,480 --> 01:01:55,760
Speaker 1: a lot of expectation, um and you know It was

1224
01:01:56,080 --> 01:01:59,520
Speaker 1: a weird year anyway with with COVID and last year, Uh,

1225
01:02:00,480 --> 01:02:03,480
Speaker 1: we overperformed a lot of folks expectation. Now here we are,

1226
01:02:03,600 --> 01:02:05,440
Speaker 1: we're going to do it again and there are now

1227
01:02:05,520 --> 01:02:08,640
Speaker 1: real expectations put on you, put on the razorbacks, put

1228
01:02:08,680 --> 01:02:10,680
Speaker 1: on the state of Arkansas, Like do you still have

1229
01:02:10,720 --> 01:02:13,720
Speaker 1: to find like dig through and find somebody disrespecting you

1230
01:02:13,760 --> 01:02:16,560
Speaker 1: to go look at this? They still don't think or

1231
01:02:16,720 --> 01:02:20,400
Speaker 1: do you just reposition on how to motivate these kids? Well,

1232
01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:25,120
Speaker 1: you know our expectations and I'm not lying here, not

1233
01:02:25,280 --> 01:02:29,120
Speaker 1: stretching the truth at all. Our expectations have been high

1234
01:02:29,200 --> 01:02:31,360
Speaker 1: ever since we walked in the building. I mean they

1235
01:02:31,400 --> 01:02:35,840
Speaker 1: really had and uh so that that's been a big

1236
01:02:35,880 --> 01:02:39,560
Speaker 1: deal for us. Uh. If I see Bobby, honestly, if

1237
01:02:39,600 --> 01:02:43,320
Speaker 1: I see uh ranking that has us ranked fifteen and

1238
01:02:43,920 --> 01:02:46,480
Speaker 1: one that has us not ranked, I'm gonna talk to

1239
01:02:46,520 --> 01:02:48,880
Speaker 1: the team about the not ranked one. I mean, I'm

1240
01:02:48,920 --> 01:02:52,480
Speaker 1: not I am, I'm I We're underdog, you know, a

1241
01:02:52,520 --> 01:02:56,520
Speaker 1: blue chip, hard working group of guys, and I want

1242
01:02:56,520 --> 01:02:59,960
Speaker 1: to I'm gonna find every reason for us to stay

1243
01:03:00,120 --> 01:03:03,840
Speaker 1: that way in the public eye and and until I guess,

1244
01:03:03,920 --> 01:03:06,480
Speaker 1: until you've got ranked number one. You know, you you

1245
01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:09,040
Speaker 1: would have that ability to put a chip on the

1246
01:03:09,040 --> 01:03:11,680
Speaker 1: guy's shoulder, and that's that's I like to do that.

1247
01:03:11,760 --> 01:03:13,960
Speaker 1: I think that's who we are and we thrive on that.

1248
01:03:14,600 --> 01:03:19,720
Speaker 1: Has fame been weird for you? Yeah? It really as

1249
01:03:19,800 --> 01:03:24,880
Speaker 1: I get um um um. A lot of times you

1250
01:03:25,320 --> 01:03:27,720
Speaker 1: may or may not feel the same way. But a

1251
01:03:27,760 --> 01:03:30,760
Speaker 1: lot of times people come up they want to touch you,

1252
01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:36,800
Speaker 1: autograph pictures, whatever that is, and I'm almost every time

1253
01:03:36,840 --> 01:03:38,640
Speaker 1: I'm going, I wonder why they want to do that,

1254
01:03:38,760 --> 01:03:41,760
Speaker 1: you know, But I also know that when I want

1255
01:03:41,760 --> 01:03:46,520
Speaker 1: to meet somebody that I I either walk away going, man,

1256
01:03:46,560 --> 01:03:49,360
Speaker 1: that guy's a jerk, or man that he's really what

1257
01:03:49,440 --> 01:03:51,120
Speaker 1: I thought he would be. And I always wanted to

1258
01:03:51,120 --> 01:03:54,440
Speaker 1: walk away from me with the feeling that, hey, this

1259
01:03:54,520 --> 01:03:56,880
Speaker 1: is what who I thought this guy would be. I mean,

1260
01:03:56,880 --> 01:04:00,160
Speaker 1: in Arkansas, you are wildly famous because the team is

1261
01:04:00,240 --> 01:04:02,480
Speaker 1: in an upper trajectory and we feel like that's gonna

1262
01:04:02,480 --> 01:04:04,400
Speaker 1: happen for a long time. Obviously, we love you very much,

1263
01:04:04,800 --> 01:04:08,000
Speaker 1: um but with that, there is everybody watching you everywhere

1264
01:04:08,040 --> 01:04:10,680
Speaker 1: you go. Now, what's cool about the level of fame

1265
01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:12,400
Speaker 1: that you have, at least I think is you could

1266
01:04:12,440 --> 01:04:16,480
Speaker 1: probably go to uh, San Diego and everybody's pretty chill,

1267
01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:18,240
Speaker 1: and you get to live more of a normal vacation

1268
01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:21,560
Speaker 1: life because nobody's hassling Coach Pittman from the razorback. Is

1269
01:04:21,600 --> 01:04:25,080
Speaker 1: that true? Yeah, that's true. I mean, um, here in

1270
01:04:25,080 --> 01:04:27,840
Speaker 1: the state though, you know, I have a home on

1271
01:04:27,960 --> 01:04:31,200
Speaker 1: Lake Hamilton's and I can get away somewhat, but not

1272
01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:34,240
Speaker 1: not much. Of course, when we put the hall out

1273
01:04:34,280 --> 01:04:36,840
Speaker 1: there on the lake kind of told where we lived,

1274
01:04:36,880 --> 01:04:40,439
Speaker 1: you know. But um, I'm very very grateful for that,

1275
01:04:40,960 --> 01:04:45,440
Speaker 1: I really am. I never get discouraged or frustrated with

1276
01:04:45,520 --> 01:04:50,120
Speaker 1: people coming up and saying hello, because I'm very honored

1277
01:04:50,160 --> 01:04:52,480
Speaker 1: that they want to meet me or be around me

1278
01:04:52,600 --> 01:04:55,520
Speaker 1: or whatever that case. Maybe how often do you eat

1279
01:04:55,600 --> 01:04:57,880
Speaker 1: then you find out someone's already paid your tab? Man,

1280
01:04:57,920 --> 01:05:00,840
Speaker 1: It's happened quite a bit, you know, I mean it

1281
01:05:01,320 --> 01:05:04,680
Speaker 1: really has. And and some people aren't even at the

1282
01:05:04,720 --> 01:05:08,120
Speaker 1: restaurant that you know, somebody will call us, say, Coach Pittman,

1283
01:05:08,200 --> 01:05:12,320
Speaker 1: Jamie's here and there. They hadn't even been at the restaurant.

1284
01:05:12,400 --> 01:05:14,880
Speaker 1: They paid for it, which, by the way, is awesome.

1285
01:05:15,160 --> 01:05:17,440
Speaker 1: Which other head coach in the SEC would you say,

1286
01:05:17,440 --> 01:05:19,200
Speaker 1: as your your bff. If you had to pick one,

1287
01:05:19,720 --> 01:05:22,800
Speaker 1: Kirby Kirby Smart, you know, that's that's the guy that

1288
01:05:23,960 --> 01:05:28,280
Speaker 1: has really taught me a lot when I was there.

1289
01:05:28,320 --> 01:05:33,280
Speaker 1: He's loyal to me as I am him. But he's

1290
01:05:33,280 --> 01:05:37,280
Speaker 1: a guy that that would be my my friend, my

1291
01:05:37,360 --> 01:05:41,040
Speaker 1: best friend. In in coaching, is there a text thread

1292
01:05:41,040 --> 01:05:43,480
Speaker 1: of like the cool SEC coaches and you guys have

1293
01:05:43,600 --> 01:05:45,040
Speaker 1: leave a couple of guys out. That's what I do.

1294
01:05:45,960 --> 01:05:49,560
Speaker 1: That's so awesome. Uh you know you probably you know,

1295
01:05:49,680 --> 01:05:51,720
Speaker 1: hopefully I'm not the one they want to leave out

1296
01:05:51,720 --> 01:05:54,960
Speaker 1: of it, but uh yeah, that is awesome. There there

1297
01:05:55,000 --> 01:05:57,160
Speaker 1: are days when you know, if you had that text

1298
01:05:57,200 --> 01:05:59,680
Speaker 1: fread though, you'd add a guy back into it, take

1299
01:05:59,720 --> 01:06:02,160
Speaker 1: another guy at this guy, take another guy out. But

1300
01:06:02,880 --> 01:06:06,400
Speaker 1: uh no, there's not one of those. But certainly I

1301
01:06:06,400 --> 01:06:08,840
Speaker 1: think everybody at some point in time would take a

1302
01:06:08,880 --> 01:06:11,920
Speaker 1: guy out and leave him out for a while. Is

1303
01:06:11,960 --> 01:06:14,360
Speaker 1: it true that if your buddies with somebody and I'm

1304
01:06:14,360 --> 01:06:17,200
Speaker 1: sure you have a lot of let peer coaches in

1305
01:06:17,240 --> 01:06:19,760
Speaker 1: the SEC, that you guys will not communicate the week

1306
01:06:19,800 --> 01:06:21,680
Speaker 1: over the week before if you're playing each other or

1307
01:06:21,840 --> 01:06:24,200
Speaker 1: or you find either way, there's a lot of truth

1308
01:06:24,320 --> 01:06:27,280
Speaker 1: to that. You know, um, you know Meil Tucker was

1309
01:06:27,600 --> 01:06:32,640
Speaker 1: at at Georgia, Shane was at Georgia. Um, Dan Lanning

1310
01:06:32,840 --> 01:06:35,240
Speaker 1: was at Georgia. You know, I think if we played,

1311
01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:37,920
Speaker 1: of course we played, shipped Baemer's team to South Carolina.

1312
01:06:38,520 --> 01:06:41,000
Speaker 1: But I don't think it makes a whole lot of difference. Uh.

1313
01:06:41,960 --> 01:06:44,160
Speaker 1: You know what, it depends on how close you are.

1314
01:06:44,200 --> 01:06:46,439
Speaker 1: If you're real close to him, you probably don't mind

1315
01:06:46,440 --> 01:06:48,680
Speaker 1: talking to him. If you send me close to him

1316
01:06:48,760 --> 01:06:51,800
Speaker 1: and you probably you probably won't talk to him the

1317
01:06:51,800 --> 01:06:54,240
Speaker 1: week of the game. Have you ever played Madden? Because

1318
01:06:54,240 --> 01:06:56,200
Speaker 1: I wonder if you played Madden, and let's say you

1319
01:06:56,200 --> 01:06:59,160
Speaker 1: didn't actually use the controller, but you just like someone

1320
01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:00,960
Speaker 1: played for you, but you told him what plays the call,

1321
01:07:01,040 --> 01:07:02,680
Speaker 1: what defense is to run. Do you think you can

1322
01:07:02,720 --> 01:07:05,160
Speaker 1: watch somebody play Madden and dominate them just based off

1323
01:07:05,200 --> 01:07:09,520
Speaker 1: of what you do as a head coach? No? I mean, now,

1324
01:07:09,560 --> 01:07:12,280
Speaker 1: Barry Might and Kendall Might. It's got Fountain Might on

1325
01:07:12,360 --> 01:07:15,640
Speaker 1: the punt when they need the punt. But I wouldn't

1326
01:07:15,640 --> 01:07:19,520
Speaker 1: know if it was coaching old line, I'd probably be

1327
01:07:19,560 --> 01:07:22,440
Speaker 1: okay and all that, but no, I wouldn't be able

1328
01:07:22,480 --> 01:07:24,520
Speaker 1: to do that. That would be the worst video game ever.

1329
01:07:24,640 --> 01:07:26,920
Speaker 1: Coaching old line. I don't think man's gonna put that in.

1330
01:07:27,320 --> 01:07:30,120
Speaker 1: It wouldn't sell many, would it. How often are the

1331
01:07:30,200 --> 01:07:32,600
Speaker 1: state troopers with you when you're traveling around the state.

1332
01:07:32,680 --> 01:07:35,080
Speaker 1: Is that just game day or is that all the time? Well,

1333
01:07:35,120 --> 01:07:38,880
Speaker 1: they take me to Catfish Hole on Wednesday nights, and uh,

1334
01:07:39,240 --> 01:07:41,640
Speaker 1: I don't know why. There's it's not dangerous at the

1335
01:07:41,640 --> 01:07:45,160
Speaker 1: Catfish Old, I can promise you. Uh, But then there

1336
01:07:45,160 --> 01:07:49,320
Speaker 1: with me on Friday and all through, all through until

1337
01:07:49,320 --> 01:07:53,080
Speaker 1: we get back home after the game more. Uh, you know,

1338
01:07:53,240 --> 01:07:56,280
Speaker 1: traveling back on a road game. So I've I've met

1339
01:07:56,320 --> 01:07:58,560
Speaker 1: your lovely wife a couple of times and yeah, thank you,

1340
01:07:58,720 --> 01:08:07,560
Speaker 1: and you've met my life and man, you know at yeah,

1341
01:08:08,080 --> 01:08:09,800
Speaker 1: thank you, thank you. I take that as a compliment,

1342
01:08:09,840 --> 01:08:15,040
Speaker 1: thank you. Yeah, it's okay. Um. So I guess my

1343
01:08:15,280 --> 01:08:19,559
Speaker 1: with my wife, I am constantly trying to make sure

1344
01:08:19,560 --> 01:08:21,120
Speaker 1: and I do not do a good job of it

1345
01:08:21,160 --> 01:08:26,880
Speaker 1: of having balance, meaning I have to remember to try

1346
01:08:26,880 --> 01:08:28,479
Speaker 1: to folk even though she's so supportive. I have to

1347
01:08:28,520 --> 01:08:30,599
Speaker 1: remember to focus and make sure that I'm not just

1348
01:08:31,080 --> 01:08:33,280
Speaker 1: using my my opic view of only my life and

1349
01:08:33,320 --> 01:08:37,000
Speaker 1: my careers when it's football season. Is there a different

1350
01:08:37,200 --> 01:08:41,360
Speaker 1: understanding in your relationship. Yeah, it has been for thirty

1351
01:08:41,400 --> 01:08:44,240
Speaker 1: six years. The only thing, Bobby, what I've done for

1352
01:08:44,280 --> 01:08:46,760
Speaker 1: a long long time is Jamie and I go on

1353
01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:50,479
Speaker 1: to date night every Thursday during the season, and we

1354
01:08:50,600 --> 01:08:53,559
Speaker 1: kind of look forward to that now because since I've

1355
01:08:53,600 --> 01:08:56,720
Speaker 1: gotten a head coaching job. Wednesday night is also she

1356
01:08:56,840 --> 01:09:00,160
Speaker 1: goes with me to the catfish Hole. But third day

1357
01:09:00,240 --> 01:09:03,040
Speaker 1: night we do something. It may be at home, but

1358
01:09:03,120 --> 01:09:05,920
Speaker 1: it's it's considered a day night, or maybe we get

1359
01:09:05,960 --> 01:09:09,320
Speaker 1: a private room somewhere and go go out on Thursday night.

1360
01:09:09,400 --> 01:09:12,960
Speaker 1: But um, I try to include her and as much

1361
01:09:13,000 --> 01:09:16,639
Speaker 1: as I possibly can because she's so important to me.

1362
01:09:16,720 --> 01:09:19,559
Speaker 1: But she's also important to how I feel and my

1363
01:09:19,720 --> 01:09:22,080
Speaker 1: daily you know, the way I walk and talk and

1364
01:09:22,200 --> 01:09:24,120
Speaker 1: things of that nature. She helps him with all that

1365
01:09:24,200 --> 01:09:26,920
Speaker 1: has for thirty six years. I hope I'm good at

1366
01:09:26,960 --> 01:09:30,479
Speaker 1: I'm conscious to be good at that coach. Final four

1367
01:09:30,560 --> 01:09:32,160
Speaker 1: questions I have here for you, and I'm gonna start

1368
01:09:32,160 --> 01:09:34,640
Speaker 1: with the n I l um, do you feel like

1369
01:09:34,680 --> 01:09:36,880
Speaker 1: it's advantageous to you that you started to be a

1370
01:09:36,920 --> 01:09:38,599
Speaker 1: head coach right as this was happening, and you weren't

1371
01:09:38,600 --> 01:09:41,759
Speaker 1: someone who's been head coaching that had to completely adjust whenever,

1372
01:09:42,120 --> 01:09:44,240
Speaker 1: like being born at the same time this was born.

1373
01:09:44,240 --> 01:09:45,720
Speaker 1: Do you feel like that was good for you. I

1374
01:09:45,720 --> 01:09:49,000
Speaker 1: don't think it hurt me. You know, you know change.

1375
01:09:50,000 --> 01:09:52,759
Speaker 1: Guys have been doing something and you just said it. Basically,

1376
01:09:52,880 --> 01:09:55,479
Speaker 1: guys have been doing something for a long time. You know,

1377
01:09:56,160 --> 01:09:59,760
Speaker 1: you either fight change or you go with change and

1378
01:09:59,800 --> 01:10:01,920
Speaker 1: try to find out how you can make it to

1379
01:10:02,040 --> 01:10:06,200
Speaker 1: your advantage. I'm a guy that when change happens, I'm

1380
01:10:06,200 --> 01:10:08,240
Speaker 1: trying to make an advantage out of it and not

1381
01:10:08,360 --> 01:10:12,160
Speaker 1: be graping about the change. It might be harder if

1382
01:10:12,200 --> 01:10:14,160
Speaker 1: I was a head coach for twenty years and I

1383
01:10:14,200 --> 01:10:18,439
Speaker 1: liked what I had, But um, right now, the rules

1384
01:10:18,439 --> 01:10:20,400
Speaker 1: a rule, and then you try to go see how

1385
01:10:20,400 --> 01:10:23,160
Speaker 1: it can be advantageous to your program. And that's how

1386
01:10:23,200 --> 01:10:24,880
Speaker 1: I feel about it. Do you feel like players are

1387
01:10:24,880 --> 01:10:27,120
Speaker 1: acting different because the n I l I think they're

1388
01:10:27,160 --> 01:10:31,240
Speaker 1: thinking different. Um, I don't know acting, but they are

1389
01:10:31,320 --> 01:10:37,360
Speaker 1: thinking different because you know, recruiting and also your own team. Uh,

1390
01:10:37,479 --> 01:10:40,640
Speaker 1: you have a lot more conversations about the name im

1391
01:10:40,680 --> 01:10:44,519
Speaker 1: and lightness than the math class or the you know,

1392
01:10:44,720 --> 01:10:47,200
Speaker 1: you miss study table, things of that nature. They want

1393
01:10:47,200 --> 01:10:49,280
Speaker 1: to talk about n I L and I want to

1394
01:10:49,280 --> 01:10:53,960
Speaker 1: talk about graduation more. Let's talk about parents. Um. And right,

1395
01:10:53,960 --> 01:10:55,720
Speaker 1: you're talking about graduation. I'm sure that's a big part

1396
01:10:55,720 --> 01:10:57,599
Speaker 1: in recruiting. We're talking to the parents of the grandparents

1397
01:10:57,680 --> 01:11:01,120
Speaker 1: or whomever the central figures are. Um. I get a

1398
01:11:01,160 --> 01:11:02,640
Speaker 1: lot of parents that asked me like, Hey, I got

1399
01:11:02,720 --> 01:11:04,320
Speaker 1: a kid that's really good at football. How do I

1400
01:11:04,320 --> 01:11:07,000
Speaker 1: get a coach to see a tape if they can't

1401
01:11:07,040 --> 01:11:09,120
Speaker 1: get to a camp or they can't get to some

1402
01:11:09,160 --> 01:11:12,639
Speaker 1: of the things like how does someone highlight their kid

1403
01:11:12,680 --> 01:11:15,639
Speaker 1: if they think their kid is really good? Well, first

1404
01:11:15,680 --> 01:11:18,680
Speaker 1: of all, I think that's the head coaches job, you know,

1405
01:11:18,840 --> 01:11:22,839
Speaker 1: their school. Uh. The other thing, there's not a social

1406
01:11:22,880 --> 01:11:26,639
Speaker 1: media how about that that's the answer. Get it out

1407
01:11:26,680 --> 01:11:29,639
Speaker 1: on Twitter, get it out on the Instagram, TikTok, whatever

1408
01:11:29,680 --> 01:11:34,120
Speaker 1: it may be. UM. But for right now, with huddle

1409
01:11:34,240 --> 01:11:36,760
Speaker 1: the way it is and our coaches being able to

1410
01:11:36,800 --> 01:11:40,000
Speaker 1: go out twice in the spring, Uh, you know, there's

1411
01:11:40,040 --> 01:11:44,320
Speaker 1: not many unturned stones in recruiting. But how they can

1412
01:11:44,400 --> 01:11:47,280
Speaker 1: do that is if they can't get to camp is

1413
01:11:47,439 --> 01:11:51,200
Speaker 1: get tape and have have the coach promote them and

1414
01:11:51,240 --> 01:11:55,040
Speaker 1: have themselves promote them on on Twitter, on on social media. Yeah,

1415
01:11:55,040 --> 01:11:56,519
Speaker 1: I feel like I was really missed there. I didn't

1416
01:11:56,520 --> 01:11:57,920
Speaker 1: get to the camps, so I feel like I was

1417
01:11:57,960 --> 01:12:01,479
Speaker 1: really just kind of pass app and what social media was?

1418
01:12:01,760 --> 01:12:05,360
Speaker 1: That's right? No, barely my space? You know? Off that alright?

1419
01:12:05,360 --> 01:12:09,080
Speaker 1: Two final questions for you, favorite TV show, movie and

1420
01:12:09,200 --> 01:12:11,719
Speaker 1: song ever in your whole life? You got movie, TV

01:12:11,800 --> 01:12:18,439
Speaker 1: show host? Gun would be movie? Uh uh what? What?

1422
01:12:18,439 --> 01:12:22,880
Speaker 1: What was TV TV show ever? Oh? Man, Gilligan's Island

1423
01:12:27,040 --> 01:12:34,200
Speaker 1: loved Maryann and and uh figured and the Skipper Really

1424
01:12:34,240 --> 01:12:36,559
Speaker 1: I like Gilligan. I kept thinking he's going to get

1425
01:12:36,560 --> 01:12:40,840
Speaker 1: off the island too, man. They never did. And then uh,

1426
01:12:41,160 --> 01:12:45,760
Speaker 1: favorite song I'm gonna go currently, I like country on

1427
01:12:46,400 --> 01:12:50,439
Speaker 1: Uh Brian by look Brian right now. I mean I

1428
01:12:50,479 --> 01:12:52,479
Speaker 1: like it. It's got a lot of good cool meaning

1429
01:12:52,560 --> 01:12:55,519
Speaker 1: to it. Hit one ones that hit you in the heart.

1430
01:12:55,720 --> 01:12:58,240
Speaker 1: I like those kind of songs. All right, last one

1431
01:12:58,320 --> 01:13:00,920
Speaker 1: for you, coach. I appreciate your time, but my wife

1432
01:13:00,920 --> 01:13:03,840
Speaker 1: being from Oklahoma, we we just spent the last four

1433
01:13:03,920 --> 01:13:07,080
Speaker 1: days over in Oklahoma and your Tulsa and um so,

1434
01:13:07,320 --> 01:13:11,680
Speaker 1: I I never liked the Sooners, but I'm having to

1435
01:13:11,760 --> 01:13:15,479
Speaker 1: adjust to not hating the Sooners, and that is an adjustment. Um.

1436
01:13:15,520 --> 01:13:18,599
Speaker 1: And so I am actually very excited about them being

1437
01:13:18,600 --> 01:13:20,920
Speaker 1: in the conference because that's just more games that I

1438
01:13:20,920 --> 01:13:25,880
Speaker 1: get to go to. So I is when they're probably in?

1439
01:13:26,320 --> 01:13:27,559
Speaker 1: Do you I'm I'm not going to ask you to

1440
01:13:27,640 --> 01:13:29,360
Speaker 1: speculate a year or anything, but do you think it'll

1441
01:13:29,360 --> 01:13:33,320
Speaker 1: be sooner than that? Right now we're told, Bobby they'll

1442
01:13:33,360 --> 01:13:39,120
Speaker 1: come in. Um. Do I think there's a possibility of it? Yes,

1443
01:13:39,520 --> 01:13:44,280
Speaker 1: I do, UM, But right now I think the SEC

1444
01:13:44,479 --> 01:13:49,559
Speaker 1: is pretty steadfast at you know, financially. Um. You know

1445
01:13:49,600 --> 01:13:53,320
Speaker 1: they're gonna be a big pay buy out by Texas

1446
01:13:53,320 --> 01:13:56,280
Speaker 1: and Oklahoma, and I'm assuming if they're willing to do that,

1447
01:13:56,320 --> 01:13:59,320
Speaker 1: and then it might speed up a little bit. But

1448
01:13:59,439 --> 01:14:04,240
Speaker 1: right now we're coach, love you good luck. Uh. You know,

1449
01:14:04,479 --> 01:14:06,600
Speaker 1: this is a national show, so I'm not supposed to

1450
01:14:06,600 --> 01:14:08,760
Speaker 1: be biased, but I'm the most biased person in my

1451
01:14:08,800 --> 01:14:10,760
Speaker 1: whole life. I've at Arkansas helmet on my desk here.

1452
01:14:10,960 --> 01:14:14,120
Speaker 1: I mean that's on camera. So uh, let's get them.

1453
01:14:14,120 --> 01:14:16,080
Speaker 1: I'll see you soon, and thanks for your time, Coach.

1454
01:14:17,080 --> 01:14:20,000
Speaker 1: Appreciate the interview. Bobby, Thanks for your time. Go off

1455
01:14:25,520 --> 01:14:28,040
Speaker 1: all right, ending thoughts everybody has one sports take. I

1456
01:14:28,040 --> 01:14:29,559
Speaker 1: don't care how trivial it is. This is your chance

1457
01:14:29,600 --> 01:14:34,519
Speaker 1: to say your opinion and funny, predictive, serious, doesn't have

1458
01:14:34,520 --> 01:14:37,800
Speaker 1: to be long. Um, we'll start with Adam Hambroke, Adam

1459
01:14:37,880 --> 01:14:39,720
Speaker 1: the new guy here to the room. What is your

1460
01:14:39,840 --> 01:14:42,200
Speaker 1: ending thoughts? Oh? Man, it lots being made on this

1461
01:14:42,280 --> 01:14:45,400
Speaker 1: coaches poll right now, and h is the SEC having

1462
01:14:45,439 --> 01:14:48,000
Speaker 1: a down year? I'm gonna go with no, Why what's

1463
01:14:48,000 --> 01:14:50,160
Speaker 1: being made to the coaches pool? Uh? There's only five

1464
01:14:50,400 --> 01:14:54,439
Speaker 1: SEC teams ranked in the coaches poll, and I think

1465
01:14:54,439 --> 01:14:56,840
Speaker 1: that's you know, that's an opportunity for a lot of

1466
01:14:56,840 --> 01:14:59,160
Speaker 1: conferences say the SEC is not as good either, They're

1467
01:14:59,160 --> 01:15:00,960
Speaker 1: not gonna be as good. Um. A couple first year

1468
01:15:01,040 --> 01:15:03,640
Speaker 1: head coaches and all that stuff. Um, but what I

1469
01:15:03,640 --> 01:15:05,880
Speaker 1: think people are missing is like there might be a

1470
01:15:05,880 --> 01:15:08,760
Speaker 1: first year head coach at Florida, Um, but Florida is

1471
01:15:08,760 --> 01:15:11,000
Speaker 1: still Florida is still gonna be loaded with talent. Uh.

1472
01:15:11,040 --> 01:15:14,759
Speaker 1: Tennessee has a has a fantastic quarterback, hen and Hooker,

1473
01:15:15,200 --> 01:15:17,560
Speaker 1: UM and L s U like L s US have

1474
01:15:17,640 --> 01:15:21,280
Speaker 1: Brian Kelly, and they all they always have talent. They

1475
01:15:21,360 --> 01:15:23,680
Speaker 1: probably will Saven went six and six this first year.

1476
01:15:24,000 --> 01:15:25,639
Speaker 1: Ryan Kelly is a great coach. This year, they'll suck,

1477
01:15:25,720 --> 01:15:28,759
Speaker 1: but but there's still when you have athletes on the field,

1478
01:15:28,800 --> 01:15:30,559
Speaker 1: like you never know what's gonna happen in a given

1479
01:15:30,560 --> 01:15:32,680
Speaker 1: a weekend. I think they're all those question marks, and

1480
01:15:32,680 --> 01:15:35,120
Speaker 1: there's still all the talent L s u A in

1481
01:15:35,160 --> 01:15:38,080
Speaker 1: Florida and these other teams that aren't in the poll, Like,

1482
01:15:38,120 --> 01:15:40,559
Speaker 1: there's still gonna be opportunity for a lot of chaos

1483
01:15:40,640 --> 01:15:43,400
Speaker 1: and a lot of like, uh, you know, these teams

1484
01:15:43,640 --> 01:15:46,000
Speaker 1: are still gonna have high ceilings that maybe they could

1485
01:15:46,240 --> 01:15:49,360
Speaker 1: maybe they could reach, but they're also be probably inconsistent

1486
01:15:49,360 --> 01:15:52,360
Speaker 1: all that stuff. But I think everything outside of Alabama

1487
01:15:52,400 --> 01:15:55,720
Speaker 1: and Georgia, obviously, everything is gonna be competitive every week

1488
01:15:55,760 --> 01:15:58,160
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be a really fun year to watch.

1489
01:15:58,200 --> 01:16:01,320
Speaker 1: And then you have teams like my Razor Backs coming on. Uh,

1490
01:16:01,360 --> 01:16:04,360
Speaker 1: they're gonna be tough, hard nosed, blue collar kind of teams.

1491
01:16:04,640 --> 01:16:07,160
Speaker 1: You got old miss Who's gonna they're gonna win football games.

1492
01:16:07,240 --> 01:16:09,680
Speaker 1: Kentucky's gonna win football games in South Carolina coming on,

1493
01:16:10,040 --> 01:16:12,760
Speaker 1: all that way below Alabama and Georgia all the way

1494
01:16:12,800 --> 01:16:15,640
Speaker 1: down to maybe Vanderbilt in the Missouri. That middle is

1495
01:16:15,640 --> 01:16:18,080
Speaker 1: gonna be a really tough, tough road to home this year.

1496
01:16:18,080 --> 01:16:20,560
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be as tough as it always is.

1497
01:16:20,640 --> 01:16:22,080
Speaker 1: So no, I don't think it's gonna be down here

1498
01:16:22,080 --> 01:16:24,160
Speaker 1: in the SEC. I think Kentucky can beat Georgia. I

1499
01:16:24,160 --> 01:16:26,599
Speaker 1: think they. I think they can. I don't think they wouldn't,

1500
01:16:26,760 --> 01:16:29,200
Speaker 1: But I think Kentucky can beat Georgia. I think Tennessee

1501
01:16:29,400 --> 01:16:32,720
Speaker 1: could possibly if the whole freaking world turns exactly right,

1502
01:16:33,080 --> 01:16:35,679
Speaker 1: they'd have a shot at it. But I think that's

1503
01:16:35,760 --> 01:16:37,680
Speaker 1: a bit of an unfair headline. When I saw an

1504
01:16:37,760 --> 01:16:39,519
Speaker 1: article too, like I see down only five teams like

1505
01:16:39,560 --> 01:16:43,639
Speaker 1: teamine all I SEC teams like a moote votes getting

1506
01:16:44,160 --> 01:16:49,400
Speaker 1: um so uh and Christmas comes slow for kids, water

1507
01:16:49,520 --> 01:16:53,599
Speaker 1: is wet, and the SEC is overrated. That no, no, no, no, no,

1508
01:16:53,960 --> 01:17:01,080
Speaker 1: what what universal truths? If people say yeah, yes, not uh,

1509
01:17:01,280 --> 01:17:03,160
Speaker 1: let's go to Eddie, give me your ending thought or

1510
01:17:03,200 --> 01:17:05,160
Speaker 1: you're not gonna like this. And especially since two people

1511
01:17:05,160 --> 01:17:06,960
Speaker 1: picked the Bucks to win the whole thing this year,

1512
01:17:07,080 --> 01:17:10,000
Speaker 1: look the Bucks. This is and I'm not being funny.

1513
01:17:10,080 --> 01:17:13,240
Speaker 1: The Bucks will start this season oh and four and

1514
01:17:13,360 --> 01:17:15,920
Speaker 1: it's gonna shock the world, there's oh my gosh, Tom Brady.

1515
01:17:16,280 --> 01:17:18,240
Speaker 1: The first four games, their first four games to start

1516
01:17:18,240 --> 01:17:21,880
Speaker 1: with the Cowboys. That's that's the lost is an automatical

1517
01:17:23,560 --> 01:17:25,679
Speaker 1: and a shocker. They're gonna play the Saints. They're gonna

1518
01:17:25,720 --> 01:17:27,439
Speaker 1: lose that one too, and then they go. I think

1519
01:17:27,439 --> 01:17:28,760
Speaker 1: they have a better shot to lose that one though

1520
01:17:28,800 --> 01:17:31,040
Speaker 1: than the first. I think because the Saints have owned

1521
01:17:31,080 --> 01:17:34,960
Speaker 1: them the last couple of years. Too stupid, you don't

1522
01:17:34,960 --> 01:17:38,599
Speaker 1: blow it all stupid takes go ahead, and then week

1523
01:17:38,680 --> 01:17:41,559
Speaker 1: three they play the Packers, will lose that week before

1524
01:17:41,600 --> 01:17:43,920
Speaker 1: they play the Chiefs. I'm telling you, Owen four, their

1525
01:17:43,960 --> 01:17:46,360
Speaker 1: first win will be against the Falcons, and it's gonna

1526
01:17:46,400 --> 01:17:48,840
Speaker 1: have the NFL going, oh my gosh, what's going on

1527
01:17:48,880 --> 01:17:51,479
Speaker 1: with Tom Brady? This is crazy. I can see one

1528
01:17:51,520 --> 01:17:54,599
Speaker 1: in three probably probably if you're asking me too into.

1529
01:17:55,040 --> 01:17:56,880
Speaker 1: I think Green Bay is gonna be interesting to Seaffle Zards,

1530
01:17:56,920 --> 01:17:58,599
Speaker 1: the number one righte receiver that they hope he is.

1531
01:17:58,880 --> 01:18:00,960
Speaker 1: I think to see who the I in Kansas City is.

1532
01:18:00,960 --> 01:18:03,840
Speaker 1: It's gonna catch balls on the outside from the homes

1533
01:18:03,920 --> 01:18:05,920
Speaker 1: is gonna be fine, somebody. It's gonna be somebody. My

1534
01:18:05,960 --> 01:18:07,519
Speaker 1: homes is too good. For there not to be somebody.

1535
01:18:07,720 --> 01:18:10,240
Speaker 1: It's like when Peyton Manning, it didn't matter who. It

1536
01:18:10,280 --> 01:18:12,479
Speaker 1: didn't matter if it was Eric Decker, it didn't matter.

1537
01:18:12,600 --> 01:18:15,479
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning made somebody a fantasy star because he just

1538
01:18:15,520 --> 01:18:17,720
Speaker 1: had some UM. So that would be interesting. But I

1539
01:18:18,000 --> 01:18:19,760
Speaker 1: think they could be two and two or three and one. Yeah,

1540
01:18:19,760 --> 01:18:21,639
Speaker 1: I mean, I like how you're certain that they will.

1541
01:18:22,640 --> 01:18:29,559
Speaker 1: I'm not starting anything something. Uh, let's go to kick off, Kevin,

1542
01:18:29,600 --> 01:18:32,960
Speaker 1: your final ending thought, kickoff, Kevin. Alright. Clemson had what

1543
01:18:33,000 --> 01:18:35,040
Speaker 1: people called a down year last year. They still went

1544
01:18:35,040 --> 01:18:38,880
Speaker 1: ten and three. UM quarterback DJ Lui Ngo Lele. I'm

1545
01:18:38,880 --> 01:18:40,960
Speaker 1: pretty sure I said that right, and you killed that.

1546
01:18:40,960 --> 01:18:43,320
Speaker 1: That wasn't bad. Yeah, and uh, he was one of

1547
01:18:43,360 --> 01:18:44,920
Speaker 1: the favorites coming in to win the Heisman. He had

1548
01:18:44,920 --> 01:18:46,920
Speaker 1: a down year as well. I think had ten interceptions

1549
01:18:46,920 --> 01:18:50,160
Speaker 1: and only nine touchdowns. But I think they bounced back

1550
01:18:50,200 --> 01:18:52,439
Speaker 1: this year because a CC is getting pretty weak, especially

1551
01:18:52,479 --> 01:18:55,200
Speaker 1: with Sam Hartman out for wake four is and I

1552
01:18:55,280 --> 01:18:58,599
Speaker 1: say he is the best sleeper bet for your money.

1553
01:18:58,880 --> 01:19:02,040
Speaker 1: He's at plus forty five hundred right now, so if

1554
01:19:02,080 --> 01:19:03,800
Speaker 1: you put your mind. I actually put twenty bucks on

1555
01:19:03,800 --> 01:19:06,360
Speaker 1: them this morning, that'll pay me nine hundred if you win,

1556
01:19:06,439 --> 01:19:10,760
Speaker 1: so do it for me. That's interesting about Clemson because yes,

1557
01:19:10,800 --> 01:19:12,360
Speaker 1: everybody says they had a bad year down here, but

1558
01:19:12,360 --> 01:19:15,240
Speaker 1: they lost them early, but they were over in everybody's mind.

1559
01:19:15,880 --> 01:19:19,080
Speaker 1: They really played well for most of the year after that,

1560
01:19:19,320 --> 01:19:21,880
Speaker 1: they did have a down year Clemson standards. Also, they're

1561
01:19:21,920 --> 01:19:23,640
Speaker 1: not gonna they don't mess with the n I l

1562
01:19:23,720 --> 01:19:26,080
Speaker 1: Really that's a weird thing. They're not big. They don't

1563
01:19:26,080 --> 01:19:29,000
Speaker 1: do it at all. Yeah, they're just like they're probably

1564
01:19:29,880 --> 01:19:36,479
Speaker 1: who knows, but I think I think that's actually a

1565
01:19:36,600 --> 01:19:41,599
Speaker 1: great pick on that. Plus yeah, I mean it's I mean,

1566
01:19:45,840 --> 01:19:51,920
Speaker 1: he's rich. Most tattoos, somebody, Mike, what you got final one?

1567
01:19:52,000 --> 01:19:54,000
Speaker 1: I think the fate of the Razorbacks depends on what

1568
01:19:54,080 --> 01:19:56,000
Speaker 1: you do with the stuff you got from the Estates Thill,

1569
01:19:56,520 --> 01:19:59,960
Speaker 1: meaning that if you take it and actually do something

1570
01:20:00,040 --> 01:20:01,960
Speaker 1: with it, they'll be great. If not, it's gonna be

1571
01:20:01,960 --> 01:20:04,160
Speaker 1: a bad season. They're all gonna sit in your room.

1572
01:20:04,280 --> 01:20:07,439
Speaker 1: Right What about to do? Why did you buy it?

1573
01:20:07,439 --> 01:20:09,280
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do anything with it. I don't anybody

1574
01:20:09,280 --> 01:20:11,680
Speaker 1: else to have it. I wanted to. I wanted to

1575
01:20:11,720 --> 01:20:14,840
Speaker 1: be taken care of very much, so all right, uh,

1576
01:20:14,880 --> 01:20:17,280
Speaker 1: and then my final take is going to be I

1577
01:20:17,320 --> 01:20:23,080
Speaker 1: think that if Old Miss finish his second in the West,

1578
01:20:23,120 --> 01:20:24,639
Speaker 1: and I hate to say that, I think Lane Kiffin

1579
01:20:24,680 --> 01:20:27,040
Speaker 1: is a real candidate for Coach of the Year because

1580
01:20:27,160 --> 01:20:29,600
Speaker 1: the media loves them, and if Old Miss can be

1581
01:20:29,640 --> 01:20:33,559
Speaker 1: competitive with Alabama, I don't think they'll win the West.

1582
01:20:33,600 --> 01:20:36,200
Speaker 1: But if Old Miss, I think Lane Kiffin has a

1583
01:20:36,240 --> 01:20:38,720
Speaker 1: real shot because of their fat infatuation with him, and

1584
01:20:38,720 --> 01:20:40,360
Speaker 1: he's on TikTok. Now he's kind of killing on TikTok

1585
01:20:40,360 --> 01:20:42,800
Speaker 1: a little bit, he is. I think that all kind

1586
01:20:42,800 --> 01:20:45,519
Speaker 1: of plays into it. I think Lane Kiffin doesn't happen

1587
01:20:45,520 --> 01:20:49,040
Speaker 1: with the national championship, but if he can win ten games,

1588
01:20:49,080 --> 01:20:51,760
Speaker 1: he could be the coach of the Year this year. Um,

1589
01:20:51,800 --> 01:20:53,880
Speaker 1: So we're gonna end this show. But before we do

1590
01:20:53,960 --> 01:20:57,120
Speaker 1: the whistle we I wanted to end on Skinnered simple Man,

1591
01:20:57,160 --> 01:20:59,840
Speaker 1: just because I like that intro. We can't because licensing issues.

1592
01:20:59,880 --> 01:21:02,439
Speaker 1: But like kind of version called what Mike complicated dude.

1593
01:21:04,120 --> 01:21:05,479
Speaker 1: It sounds kind of like it but not really, but

1594
01:21:05,560 --> 01:21:06,960
Speaker 1: we have access to it, you know, it sounds like

1595
01:21:07,000 --> 01:21:09,400
Speaker 1: complicated dude. Okay, here we go. This is what When

1596
01:21:09,439 --> 01:21:12,000
Speaker 1: I do my final thing here. Mike's gonna play complicated

1597
01:21:12,080 --> 01:21:17,599
Speaker 1: dude from now on. Go ahead, it does sound good. Yeah, yeah, hey, thanks,

Speaker 1: it's our first episode. The credits will come up in

1599
01:21:20,320 --> 01:21:22,800
Speaker 1: a second, and usually I'll do my ending thought over this,

1600
01:21:23,400 --> 01:21:24,840
Speaker 1: but I and now I get to choose we had

1601
01:21:24,880 --> 01:21:26,840
Speaker 1: the best show, the first first day, best show, and

1602
01:21:26,880 --> 01:21:28,120
Speaker 1: they get to blow the whistle, and that'll be the

1603
01:21:28,120 --> 01:21:32,760
Speaker 1: first whistle out. Um, Mike didn't have a mascot. Is

1604
01:21:32,760 --> 01:21:34,679
Speaker 1: a tough game to play. So he's doing a stretch,

1605
01:21:34,720 --> 01:21:39,599
Speaker 1: so he's out. Uh, Kevin, solid job today. You still

1606
