Brussels, 9 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:30,200 Speaker 1: we crush it, yes we do. Can't. Went walk down 10 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,280 Speaker 1: the street in Brussels. That meeting great and Brussels, Oh 11 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:35,400 Speaker 1: it was great. We almost didn't get you out of there. No, 12 00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 1: that was lucky. I felt like one direction. Yeah maybe 13 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:44,160 Speaker 1: the Beatles maybe no direction. You know what. A buzzkill 14 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:47,960 Speaker 1: came in today all excited about the Masters, ready to 15 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:52,519 Speaker 1: go early teen times, and I go, wait, those are 16 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 1: highlights of previous Masters. What happened? We got rain in 17 00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:01,160 Speaker 1: the forecast, they had lightning and thunder in the forecast 18 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 1: as well, and you had some big names who are 19 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: going to be teeing off early. Plus. Also understand this, 20 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 1: with daylight savings time, you have probably two hours less 21 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 1: time daylight time in Augusta. They're gonna have to wrap 22 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:20,039 Speaker 1: all this up before five o'clock East Coast time, and 23 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:23,959 Speaker 1: normally they'd go to around seven seven thirty when you're 24 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 1: playing in April. Now, with the Masters playing in November, 25 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,319 Speaker 1: maybe five o'clock at the latest there, they're gonna try 26 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 1: to cram all this in. Then you get to the weekend. 27 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: You got college football in the NFL as well, and 28 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: it might be a little dicey to get all to 29 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,479 Speaker 1: this in over the next four days. But we'll keep 30 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,759 Speaker 1: an eye on what's going on there and he updates 31 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 1: with the weather and some of the bigger names. Teeing 32 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 1: Off will clue you in on that. Yes, point, I 33 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 1: have to get this out right now. Quick five minute 34 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,639 Speaker 1: poll question. Would you rather have the Masters pushed back 35 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: because of rain today tomorrow, in the next few days, 36 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 1: so the final round is played in its entirety on 37 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 1: Monday afternoon so it's not up against the NFL on 38 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 1: Sunday afternoon. Or would you rather have the final round 39 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 1: the Masters on Sunday so you could flip back and 40 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 1: forth with the NFL. It doesn't matter to me. It 41 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,959 Speaker 1: feels like we've moved everything around. So if you move 42 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,359 Speaker 1: the final round of the Masters to Monday, all right, 43 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 1: But what happens if you're moving an NFL game or 44 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,640 Speaker 1: something else to Monday or Tuesday? But yeah, I'm fine 45 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: with that. I just want to see it played. I 46 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:31,640 Speaker 1: want to see how it looks, how it sounds, and 47 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: how Tiger plays Bryson to Shambo. So I'm however, they 48 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 1: do it whenever they do it, as long as they're 49 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 1: able to do it and completed. Yaub. So the NFL, 50 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 1: and I heard this on Red Zone, they have the 51 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 1: fewest one o'clock games of any week this season. They 52 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,839 Speaker 1: only have five one o'clock games, and they pushed most 53 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: of their games so four o'clock to try it so 54 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: you can fit so five one o'clock and six to 55 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,920 Speaker 1: four o'clock and the Sunday night so you could have both. 56 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 1: And they're really bad games at what o'clock. Well, CBS 57 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 1: has to have that window to be able to carry this, 58 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 1: and that's why they probably said, can we move our 59 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 1: games to four o'clock? Fox doesn't care, and Fox still 60 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 1: has their game of the week on Sunday afternoon at 61 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: four twenty five. Yeah. Yeah, so look at these games. Eagles, Giants, 62 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 1: Jaguars at Packers, Washington at Detroit Texans Browns and Bucks Panthers. 63 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 1: Is actually that's a good one though, M Yeah they 64 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,959 Speaker 1: just played Yeah, yeah, yeah, I guess. And then you 65 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:31,919 Speaker 1: got a game coming up TONIGHTO. By the way, it's 66 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 1: the Colts and the Titans. Make love and sent me 67 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: a note He goes, hey, I just want to let 68 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 1: you know the two best players probably in this game, 69 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 1: or guys to keep an eye on their defensive players. 70 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: And I go, wow, that's the way to sell it. Yeah, 71 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 1: it's not even like pass rushing defense. It's I like TJ. Watton. 72 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 1: Is this DeForest Buckner? Yeah, I guess he's I kept 73 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 1: reading he's transformed that Indianapolis cult defense and he's amazing. 74 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 1: But he's a defensive tackle, so we don't even notice. 75 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: And is this Simmons with the Titans? Yes, this guy 76 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 1: and I there's two Simmons in the NFL. But Jeffrey Simmons, 77 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: who has been a slow bird, is emerging as a star. 78 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: But I mean, you know, you can sometimes yelled me 79 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:17,479 Speaker 1: for being too mean to the AFC South, but you 80 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 1: have to admit, from an optics standpoint, it's hard to 81 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 1: get fired up about AFC South matchups. Yes, if this 82 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,799 Speaker 1: was a game played at one o'clock on Sunday, nobody 83 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: would watch, nobody would care. But it's a standalone game, 84 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: and that's what you want because we focus on what 85 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: you do, either really well or really bad. But I 86 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 1: don't know if I could sell this if I'm Fox's 87 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 1: voiceover guy tonight, Jeffrey Simmons and the Titans versus DeForest 88 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: Buckner and the Colts. You like sound defensive line play tonight? 89 00:04:52,400 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 1: The Colts DeForrest Buckner versus the Titans. Jeffrey Simmons. Oh, sorry, Todd, 90 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 1: I took your like when you do that? Okay, my bad, 91 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 1: My bad got carried away. I'm excited about some solid 92 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:12,719 Speaker 1: defensive line players coming up tonight. Yeah, when Simmons sets 93 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: the edge man. When you were okay your Super Bowl hits, 94 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 1: did you consider either these two teams? Were the Titans 95 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,159 Speaker 1: in your mix more so than the Colts? I don't, 96 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: But you've been a fan of the way the culture building. 97 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,279 Speaker 1: I mean, but I don't. I don't want Philip Rivers. 98 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 1: I like Philip Rivers fun interview. I don't want it 99 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:34,239 Speaker 1: was my starting quarterback, But I do think they're building 100 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 1: something there. You know, they got a good coach, good GM. 101 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,840 Speaker 1: I just didn't like this. Hey, let's bring in Philip 102 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 1: Rivers for one year, and it felt like you could 103 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 1: have brought in somebody else who gave you a little 104 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 1: bit more of a future there. Yeah. Yeah, like you mean, 105 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,039 Speaker 1: you're not talking about Jakobe Prissette, You're talking about something 106 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 1: new down the road. Well, as I told you, they 107 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 1: were trying to get Jordan Love. And I don't know 108 00:05:58,160 --> 00:05:59,719 Speaker 1: if they would have brought in Jordan Love and he 109 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 1: would have played right away if they drafted him, or 110 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,480 Speaker 1: they would have worked him into the lineup at some point. 111 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: But that's why I was told the Packers went up 112 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: and got Jordan Loved, because the Colts wanted Jordan Love. 113 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 1: This program brought to you by one eight hundred flowers 114 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: dot com.

College Football games 120 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 1: around the country being postponed this weekend for COVID related reasons. 121 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 1: I've got the list here of games that have been postponed. 122 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 1: Some have been canceled. Ohio State Maryland has been canceled 123 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 1: their head coach, Ryan Day, the Buckeyes head coach, will 124 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 1: join his coming up final hour of the show. Air 125 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 1: Force Wyoming canceled, Alabama LSU postponed, A and M Tennessee postpone, 126 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:03,600 Speaker 1: Missouri Georgia postponem Missisippi State, AID, Auburn postpone, Memphis Navy postpone, 127 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: and Louisiana Monroe, Arkansas State postponed. What has been a 128 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 1: trickle of games has suddenly become a title wave here. 129 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: It's a crucial time for colleges to assess what is 130 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 1: the best strategy and how to proceed, and as usual, 131 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: the SEC is front and center. They've already had to 132 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 1: postpone several marquee matchups coming up this weekend. Unlike the 133 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,679 Speaker 1: Big Ten and the Pac twelve, the SEC didn't hesitate 134 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 1: when they saw the opportunity to play this fall. They 135 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 1: jumped on it. But they also built in a little 136 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 1: more wiggle room when you had some postponements here. PAC 137 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 1: twelve Big Ten do not have that, and Ohio State 138 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 1: is really running the risk of not being able to 139 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 1: play for the Big Ten championship. It's strange. Could Ohio 140 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 1: State still play for the national championship, be in the 141 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 1: playoffs and not be in the Big Ten title game 142 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: because you could have a situation where Indiana represents the 143 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 1: Big Ten or is the Big Ten championship team, But 144 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 1: is Indiana better than Ohio State? They play each other 145 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 1: coming up next week, But here's Ohio State missing the 146 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 1: game against Maryland. Nothing to do with Ohio State. It's 147 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 1: Maryland that had the COVID test. Now Alabama looks like 148 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 1: a title contender. Everybody would agree Florida an m have 149 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: a shot at the college football playoffs. But the SEC's 150 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 1: got to explore every option right now, and the rest 151 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 1: of college football normally follows whatever the SEC does, and 152 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:35,319 Speaker 1: hopefully the trends become more positive and the SEC and 153 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: the other conferences can finish their seasons. And I want 154 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 1: to ask Ryan Day, the Ohio State head coach, have 155 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 1: you thought about did you think about going out and 156 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,680 Speaker 1: scheduling somebody? Remember Nebraska was going to do this and 157 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 1: Nebraska was going to have you tea Chattanooga's short notice 158 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 1: and I'd gotten word on this. And keep in mind, 159 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: Nebraska was trying to go rogue before the season started, 160 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 1: and then they thought, well, hey, we had this cancelation, 161 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 1: can we go out and get somebody? And the Big 162 00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 1: Ten said no. And what I found out was Ohio 163 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 1: State and Michigan were on Nebraska's side because what I 164 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,959 Speaker 1: was told by a source, they thought, if they get 165 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: into a situation, they want to be able to go 166 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 1: out and schedule somebody, just like this weekend. So Ryan Day, 167 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 1: the Ohio State head coach, will join us a little 168 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 1: bit later on. I don't know if he's coming on 169 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 1: for that reason to tell us that they're thinking about 170 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: or they thought about scheduling somebody. I'm just curious, what 171 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 1: if they only play five games, are they able to qualify? 172 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 1: Is that enough for the Playoff Committee? Playoff committee is 173 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,839 Speaker 1: also about business. In fact, it's all about business. It's 174 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 1: all about popular teams eyeballs, and Ohio State brings a 175 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 1: big fan base there. Yes, Seaton O'Connor. Think about how 176 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 1: many teams would have been eligible for the College Football 177 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 1: Playoff if you only had to play five games. Yeah, 178 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 1: you go through the history of college football, how many 179 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 1: teams got right down to that last game and then 180 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 1: a loss to like Pit or somebody, And you're like, oh, great, 181 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 1: we blew if you only end the five games. Yeah, 182 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: let's put something together, Dan, we got Ryan Day of 183 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 1: Ohio State on Let's let's call over to you know, 184 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: b YU, see what their coach is doing this morning. 185 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 1: Maybe we can get a little something together. Send the 186 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 1: call provo far up to Jet, send it to Columbus. 187 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 1: See what happens. BYU. You pull off the upset, you're 188 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 1: in the national title picture. It feels like if BYU 189 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 1: wanted to play Texas A and M might be a 190 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 1: little easier to do that than do something in the 191 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: big ten. Let's go big. But look, BYU would be 192 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 1: all in on this. If BYU would somehow be able 193 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 1: to beat Ohio State or get that opportunity to play them. 194 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: They need a big quality win. They have two more 195 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 1: games and they're not against big opponents or Texas A 196 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 1: and M. Texas A and M wanting to get into 197 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 1: the final four. I think we're going to see a 198 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 1: scenario where one of these schools is going to say, 199 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: can we go out and schedule somebody else? Our game 200 00:10:55,559 --> 00:11:00,199 Speaker 1: got canceled by U's got the week off, Alabama's out 201 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,840 Speaker 1: the week off. Let's go. Yeah. I don't think it's 202 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 1: that easy. But four SEC games postponed to Ohio State, 203 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,920 Speaker 1: Maryland canceled. They will not make that up. Yes, mclen 204 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 1: it's weird that Jim Harbaugh's not coming on and arguing 205 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:15,840 Speaker 1: for more game. In fact, he's like, I look at 206 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 1: their schedule, I've ever twenty first at Rutgers's praying for 207 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,839 Speaker 1: a postpone. I think coach is thinking safety first. I 208 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 1: think that's really smart for coach Harball. Safety first. Colt 209 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: Stiten's Masters Underway. Mclovin has a poll question or two 210 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 1: I do do you want to give it to me? 211 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 1: We have a series of poll question your favorite question 212 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 1: basically whose future would you want? It could be a game, 213 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 1: which one you want first? NFL or NBA? Oh, give 214 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 1: me NFL and then I'll get to the NBA with 215 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 1: what's going on with the Rockets? Okay, we this is 216 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: actually a leftover from yesterday. Whose future would you rather? 217 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 1: The New York Football Jets or the England Patriots? M 218 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 1: I think we should put that one up to see 219 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,679 Speaker 1: what I can say, and I'll let you think about it. Yeah, 220 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:11,960 Speaker 1: the other two football ones whose future would rather have 221 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:15,560 Speaker 1: the Dauphins or the Chargers? Because Tua and and Herbert 222 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 1: play each other this weekend, it's a referendum on the draft. 223 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: You might say, yeah, yeah, um, I'd probably rather have 224 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,079 Speaker 1: the Jets future, knowing that they're not going to be 225 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 1: any good and they get Trevor Lawrence. At least I 226 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:38,319 Speaker 1: have a once in a generation, once in a decade quarterback, 227 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:42,439 Speaker 1: at least the prospects of that. And as much as 228 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 1: I like Sam Darnold, Sam Darnold needs to, you know, 229 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 1: leave the Jets and maybe, you know, salvage your career here. 230 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:50,679 Speaker 1: I don't know what's well. I don't know where the 231 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: Patriots are going here. I don't know how long Belichick 232 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 1: stays there. Is Cam your quarterback? You gotta have a quarterback. 233 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 1: And if I start with a quarterback, and if I 234 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 1: have trust in the front office, I don't have trust 235 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: in the ownership with the Jets, and I don't have 236 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,719 Speaker 1: trust with the coach. But if you said I can 237 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,439 Speaker 1: get a you know, let's throw out Eric B. Enemy 238 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 1: from the Chiefs. I get somebody like that, offensive minded, 239 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 1: forward thinking, explosive spread it, get you know, speed out there, 240 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 1: and then you tell ownership stay out of the way, 241 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 1: all right, because I'm guessing some receivers are going to 242 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 1: want to play with Trevor Lawrence. You know, you're trying 243 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 1: to build your offensive line, get rid of some of 244 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 1: that dead weight. You know, they got rid of Jamal 245 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 1: Adams who didn't want to be there. Levon Bell I 246 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 1: would say the Jets right now, yeah, Paul, the Jets 247 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: are going to the offseason. They're probably to get Trevor Lawrence. 248 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 1: They have two first round draft picks. They have eighty 249 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: three million in cap space, second only to the Jaguars. 250 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 1: But it's what you do with the cap space that matters. 251 00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 1: But the combo of a rookie quarterback deal and a 252 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 1: ton of cap space, it's almost on a plate for 253 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 1: someone to do. Right. But have you ever seen somebody 254 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 1: when they do something to their house and they've got 255 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 1: all the money in the world, and you go, why 256 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 1: why would they do that? That doesn't make any sense. Wait, what, 257 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 1: That's what happens with some of these teams. We got 258 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 1: all this cap space and then you go, but why 259 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 1: did you do that? Like the Knicks. The Nicks, you know, 260 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 1: they somehow will take Russell Lestbrook and go, yeah, this 261 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: is our future thirty Russ turns thirty two today, and hey, 262 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 1: this makes us relevant. We got Russell Lestbrook. It doesn't 263 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 1: make you relevant. Like Oklahoma City was relevant because Russ 264 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 1: was putting up triple doubles and we had not seen 265 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 1: that in fifty years with Oscar Robertson. Now all of 266 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 1: a sudden we're like, okay, we get the triple double thing. 267 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 1: That novelty is over here. But here the Knicks going, yeah, 268 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 1: let's get Chris Paul. He's almost too old for us, 269 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 1: the perfect time to get him. He's thirty, he's gonna 270 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 1: be thirty five. Let's get Russ, who uses his legs. 271 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 1: He's thirty two. Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. 272 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 1: Great game plan there. What else are you have? Right? 273 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 1: Just a point. The Patriots are right behind the Jets. 274 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,520 Speaker 1: They have the third post cap space, so they could 275 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 1: spend it. This is another whose future would you want? 276 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 1: This is this debate is everywhere these days. Cardinals are ravens. 277 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 1: It's kind of like the Kyler Murray Lamar Jackson debate 278 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: who these people are saying Kyler's are more evolved Lamar 279 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 1: Jackson because he's better at the passing game. Um, you 280 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 1: know Kyler's passing satire boy. We moved on from Lamar 281 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 1: Jackson quickly. Yeah, wow, you haven't seen oh you. But 282 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 1: basically Kyler Burry's gonna be old news suit next year. 283 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 1: Someone's gonna come in. That's a shelf life. Now for 284 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 1: a hot story. And Lamar Jackson was on Rich Eyes 285 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 1: and Show yesterday and I'm gonna play this sound coming 286 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 1: up where he says the defenses basically know what the 287 00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 1: plays are. When he goes to the line of scrimmage, 288 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 1: they yell out what the play is. Who's faults that? 289 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 1: All right? If there it would be you don't want 290 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: that happen? Yes eight seven seven three D P show 291 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 1: email address DP at Dan Patrick dot com.

Amnuacho is the former NFL linebacker co 332 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,680 Speaker 1: host of Fox Sports One, Speak for Yourself, and has 333 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 1: a new book called Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Man. Emmanuel. 334 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:34,919 Speaker 1: Good to have you on. Let me start with that 335 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 1: topic with Lamar Jackson. How is it that these defenses 336 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 1: or a defense knows what Lamar Jackson and the Ravens 337 00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 1: are doing when they get to the line of scrimmage. 338 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:47,120 Speaker 1: As a middle linebacker in the NFL, Dan, I can 339 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,880 Speaker 1: tell you it's not that complicated. What do I mean, Well, 340 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,639 Speaker 1: last year, Lamar Jackson took the league by storm, so 341 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,679 Speaker 1: many of these NFL coaches hadn't seen the spread style 342 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 1: run game. When I played at the University of Texas, 343 00:18:58,440 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 1: I was playing against the guy by the name of 344 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,680 Speaker 1: Robert Griffin who won the Heisman his senior year. My 345 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 1: senior year. After you see it for a while, you understand, Okay, 346 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 1: if the back is offset to the quarterbacks right and 347 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,399 Speaker 1: he's about two yards deeper than the quarterback, you're probably 348 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 1: going to get an inside zone type of run scheme. 349 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:17,160 Speaker 1: If he's offset to the quarterbacks right and he's even 350 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 1: with the quarterback, you might get an option to the right. 351 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 1: Based on depth, perception of the running back, based on 352 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,920 Speaker 1: splits of the offense, you can pretty fairly anticipate what's 353 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 1: going on. The problem, Dan is simple. Last year, you 354 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,679 Speaker 1: only had about three days to prepare for Lamar Jackson 355 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:34,880 Speaker 1: if you were going to see him that week. This year, 356 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:38,119 Speaker 1: you've had about three four months to prepare for Lamar 357 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 1: Jackson all off season, So I think you're starting to 358 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,639 Speaker 1: see the adjustment catching up to the Ravens. Yeah, but 359 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 1: if Lamar knows this, the defense knows this, then how 360 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 1: is it that the Ravens aren't you counteracting this well? 361 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: Because you can actually only do so many things on offense, 362 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 1: particularly if you live within a certain scheme. See when 363 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 1: you're going to get up against the guy like Andy Read, 364 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 1: he's doing ridiculous stuff, a ton of different formations, a 365 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 1: ton of different pre snapshifts and moves. But when you're 366 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 1: going against the Baltimore Ravens, they don't do so much. 367 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 1: They just do it excellently. And that's the difference. When 368 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:16,119 Speaker 1: I was playing against the Carolina Panthers in thirteen, fourteen 369 00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 1: and fifteen with Cam Newton, preparing for them was grueling. 370 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:23,480 Speaker 1: They had thousands of formations I probably obviously, but they 371 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:25,719 Speaker 1: could run so many different things out of those formations. 372 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 1: The Ravens they keep it more simple. They just executed 373 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,160 Speaker 1: a higher level. There's a pro to that, but also 374 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: a con to that as well. If I gave you 375 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:39,679 Speaker 1: their futures right now, Lamar Jackson or Kyler Murray, I 376 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 1: would probably say, oh, that's so tough. Let me say 377 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:50,120 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. I know a lot of people are saying 378 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,400 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray, and I really like Kyler Murray. I probably though, 379 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:58,159 Speaker 1: like Cliff Kingsbury and his offensive mind more than I 380 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 1: like what they have going gone and with Greg Roman 381 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 1: and with the Ravens. Remember this is a problem, Dan, 382 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:06,880 Speaker 1: when you're talking about sports, so many look people look 383 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 1: at just the incubated team. Oh, we'll give me Patrick 384 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:13,640 Speaker 1: Mahomes over to Shaun Watson. Well sure, but what if 385 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:17,359 Speaker 1: you would have had Patrick Mahomes drafted to Bill O'Brien's 386 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:22,120 Speaker 1: Texans and to Shaun Watson drafted to Andy Reid's Chiefs. 387 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:25,200 Speaker 1: Like it's just it's never apples to apples when people 388 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 1: try to make these comparisons, and also when we start 389 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:30,639 Speaker 1: to handicap, like how long it takes for somebody to 390 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:33,719 Speaker 1: take that next step? And you know, it feels like 391 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: receivers it takes them a little while to get the 392 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 1: game doesn't come to them as easy as some of 393 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 1: the other positions there. Brandon Marshall I remember telling me 394 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,880 Speaker 1: it took him six years for the game to kind 395 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 1: of come to him. Quarterbacks, it's coming to you right away, 396 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 1: Dk Metcalf, It's sort of coming to him right away 397 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:54,919 Speaker 1: that if I said I'll give you any receiver for 398 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 1: the next five years, who are you taking? And most 399 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 1: people are probably taking DK Metcalf. How is it that 400 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 1: he slipped by everybody in the first round? Well, as 401 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 1: a college football analyst, remember DK Metcalf was oft and 402 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 1: oft and injured. AJ Brown was also on that team 403 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 1: receiver for the Tennessee Titans. A. J. Brown was probably 404 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 1: a better collegiate receiver than DK Metcalf, many would argue, 405 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 1: particularly because of health. Let's also not underestimate Russell Wilson. 406 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 1: Tyler Lockett was supposed to be a gadget guy. Tyler 407 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:28,200 Speaker 1: Lockett in the Big Twelve Conference where I played to 408 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:32,119 Speaker 1: college football, he was a return ace return specialist. He 409 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 1: had two hundred yards receiving on fifteen catches just two 410 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 1: weeks ago. Let's not underestimate Russell Wilson. Doug Baldwin, what 411 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,880 Speaker 1: was he an undrafted free agent turns into a perennial 412 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:46,119 Speaker 1: or repeat Pro bowler. Russell Wilson's also playing a great 413 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: major factor in dk success. And kudos to DK Metcalf 414 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 1: for overachieving. If you will, when did you start thinking 415 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 1: about this? Is a career. When you were playing, Dan, 416 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 1: I'd gravitate towards what I'm good at. In high school, 417 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 1: I went to an affluent, all white private school. I 418 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 1: was supposed to be a National Merit scholar. My parents 419 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 1: my parents born in Nigeria. I'm first generation American. So Dan, 420 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:11,920 Speaker 1: I'm thinking, Okay, I'm gonna be a nerd. Go to Yale, 421 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 1: go to Harvard. I wind up being six to two 422 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 1: hundred and forty pounds. I was like, well, I guess 423 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 1: we'll play football. While playing football, Dan, I was like, okay, 424 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: I kind of understand. I was never the fastest, I 425 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,440 Speaker 1: was never the strongest, but I was typically the smartest 426 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:26,440 Speaker 1: on the football field. So I said, let me get 427 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 1: into breaking down games, breaking down tape, because it's not 428 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:31,919 Speaker 1: what you know, it's what you can get the listener 429 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 1: and the fan to know. And I realized I'm decently 430 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:36,639 Speaker 1: skilled at that. Well, that's why I moved into it. 431 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 1: What did Christian Okoya mean to Nigeria? Christian Okoya obviously 432 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:46,000 Speaker 1: the great running back for the Kansas City Chiefs. Everyone 433 00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:49,120 Speaker 1: knows him as a Nigerian nightmare. Dan my first email 434 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 1: when I was a ninth grader in high school. It 435 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 1: was Nigerian Nightmare at Yahoo dot com. First email, my 436 00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 1: very first one. So when you say what does Christian 437 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 1: Okoye mean to Nigerian Americans, to Nigerian football players, he's 438 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,159 Speaker 1: the legacy and that legacy has since been tried to 439 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 1: be since been carried on. Think about the NFL Draft 440 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 1: and three Nigerian players were drafted in the first round. 441 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:18,919 Speaker 1: Obviously Jeff Okuda I remember him. I think Noah Egboghinei 442 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 1: another cornerback from Auburn, and there was one more player 443 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 1: who's slipping my mind. But think about what Christian o'koya 444 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,680 Speaker 1: started and how that legacy has continued to be passed down. 445 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:32,000 Speaker 1: Emmanuel also the former NFL linebacker and he's the co 446 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:35,160 Speaker 1: host Marcellus Wiley with Speak for Yourself. But the book 447 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 1: is uncomfortable conversations with a black man. When did you 448 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 1: think about doing the book and why? Yeah, Dan, after 449 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 1: the racial tension going on in our world, I said 450 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 1: I have to do something to alleviate some of this. 451 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,400 Speaker 1: I'm a sports analyst, sure, but before i'm that, Dan, 452 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 1: I'm a black man, and before I was even that, 453 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:56,880 Speaker 1: the world, the world saw me as a black man. 454 00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:59,160 Speaker 1: I was a human being. It's my job to leave 455 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 1: the world better than and I found it. I said, Wait, 456 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 1: I was immersed in white culture, Dan, at this all 457 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 1: white private school growing up. Then I was immersed in 458 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 1: black culture in the NFL, and in college I realized 459 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:13,000 Speaker 1: there's a color and culture issue. Dan, like black people 460 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:17,960 Speaker 1: and white people, we communicate differently. And because we communicate differently, 461 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 1: let me try to act as a bridge to allow 462 00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 1: my white brothers and sisters to understand some questions, answer 463 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 1: some questions that they may never ask because they don't 464 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:29,960 Speaker 1: have black friends who ask them too, or a black group, 465 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,200 Speaker 1: or feel comfortable. So I said, let me write this 466 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 1: book to help educate those that want to be a 467 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 1: part of the solution in America. What is the I guess, 468 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 1: top question that we should ask or you that you 469 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 1: want to answer? Such a great question, I think the 470 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:51,200 Speaker 1: top question, which is such a volatile topic. People talk 471 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:54,680 Speaker 1: about white privilege. Well, Emmanuel, I worked hard. How can 472 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 1: you say I'm privileged, Dan, Let me say this, I 473 00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 1: currently have famous person privilege. I was walking down the 474 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 1: street in Beverly Hills, Dan, I walk into a restaurant. 475 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,199 Speaker 1: They say, Emmanuel, I love your show your meal is 476 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,879 Speaker 1: on me, then the meal was free, not because I'm black, 477 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 1: not because I'm six too, because they knew who I was. 478 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:13,439 Speaker 1: So many people in America, I submit that privilege just 479 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 1: means you have certain access to a space or certain 480 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:19,919 Speaker 1: immunity from a space because of who you are. So 481 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 1: when you talk about white privilege, it's understanding that in America, 482 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:26,120 Speaker 1: I have certain immunity or certain access to certain spaces. 483 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:28,440 Speaker 1: It's not saying your life hasn't been hard. It's saying 484 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:32,120 Speaker 1: your skin color hasn't contributed to the difficulty in your life. 485 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:35,479 Speaker 1: I think, Dan, there's so many visceral reactions based on 486 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 1: terms in our current society that really turned people off. 487 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 1: But until we open up our minds of understanding, open 488 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,639 Speaker 1: up our hearts to understand, we won't really see the 489 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 1: unity that we need. And let me say this real quick. 490 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,160 Speaker 1: I played in the locker room for the greater light 491 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,119 Speaker 1: and the greater part of my life, and people say, well, 492 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,640 Speaker 1: Emmanuel in the locker room. People look past race, Dan, 493 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,440 Speaker 1: they look past religion because we're all fighting towards a 494 00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 1: common goal. In America. The reason we have so many 495 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 1: divides is because we're not all fighting towards the common goal. 496 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:09,440 Speaker 1: We don't all realize oppression exists. Racism may exist, systemic 497 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 1: racism exists. So Dan, if you're not fighting towards the 498 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 1: common goal, then you end up fighting each other. And 499 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 1: that is a difference between how in a locker room 500 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,960 Speaker 1: you can overlook your differences, but in the world we 501 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 1: struggle to why is it that in the moment there 502 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 1: is this blowback or this anger or resentment with those 503 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:33,320 Speaker 1: Muhammad Ali, Martin Luther King. I even look at Lebron 504 00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,960 Speaker 1: James and I shouldn't be just singling out African Americans. 505 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:38,600 Speaker 1: There are a lot of people who speak up on 506 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:42,200 Speaker 1: this topic, but it feels like it's after the fact 507 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:46,639 Speaker 1: we look back with reverence and admiration instead of in 508 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 1: the moment. You know, I don't know how we're going 509 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:52,399 Speaker 1: to look back on Colin Kaepernick because in the moment 510 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:56,399 Speaker 1: and even now, it's still volatile. I don't know fifteen, twenty, thirty, 511 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:59,119 Speaker 1: forty years, I don't know how history treats him Ali. 512 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 1: They didn't treat him well. Martin Luther King was divisive 513 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:07,359 Speaker 1: as well. Lebron James, you know, today is divisive to 514 00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:10,120 Speaker 1: a lot of polarizing to a lot of people. Why 515 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:11,879 Speaker 1: isn't we don't see what's in front of us or 516 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 1: appreciate what's in front of us. There's twofold number one 517 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 1: day in the old quote, you never know what you 518 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 1: got until it's gone. But now let me dive a 519 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:23,879 Speaker 1: little bit deeper. No one likes to get uncomfortable in 520 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 1: the moment. This is a sports show, so let's talk sports. 521 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,359 Speaker 1: University of Texas, I had a strength coach called mad 522 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 1: Dog Madden. He wore a huge gold chain around his 523 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 1: neck and said, mad Dog, you're probably about six four, 524 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 1: three hundred plus pounds dan. Do you think I liked 525 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 1: my strength coach in college? Absolutely not. I didn't like 526 00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 1: when he was yelling at me. I didn't like when 527 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 1: he was forcing me to do something I didn't want 528 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 1: to do. I didn't like when he was making me 529 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 1: wake up at six am to run gassers across the 530 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:54,560 Speaker 1: football field and the hot Texas heat. Absolutely not. But 531 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,719 Speaker 1: as I've gotten older, I've realized, wait a second, everything 532 00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 1: he was doing for me at the time was for 533 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 1: my benefit. But more importantly, everything mad Dog, my strength coach, 534 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 1: was doing for me at the time was for the 535 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 1: greater good of the team. And I think the issue 536 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 1: at hand is when you talk about guys like doctor 537 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 1: Martin Luther King, Lebron James, Muhammad Ali, the likes. What 538 00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 1: they're trying to do is for the greater good of 539 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 1: the team, the United States, our team which we're all 540 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 1: on together. Now. You might not agree with some of 541 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:30,160 Speaker 1: their philosophies, You might not agree with some of their terms. 542 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 1: I might not have agreed with all of these sets 543 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 1: and repetitions my strength coach was making me do, but 544 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 1: the intention was pure behind it. And I think, really, Dan, 545 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 1: we just we don't like to get uncomfortable, and that's 546 00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 1: why I wrote the book and that's why we're starting 547 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,880 Speaker 1: to see some growth in our country. Is there part 548 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 1: of you that says, is my calling something above just 549 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 1: doing sports and breaking down? You know? Is Carson Wentz 550 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 1: good enough to be the starting quarterback for the Eagles? Oh? 551 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 1: I so genuinely appreciate that question. Death, Dan, I've realized 552 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 1: there's a difference between your career and your calling. See, 553 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 1: your career is what you're paid for. Your calling is 554 00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 1: what you're made for. And while my career has been 555 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 1: sports x's and os, Lebron James Carston Wentz versus Nick Foles? 556 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 1: Who was better? Who is greater? My calling has been 557 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 1: trying to bridge racial reconciliation in this world. My calling 558 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,760 Speaker 1: has been trying to unite my black brothers and sisters 559 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:26,120 Speaker 1: and my white brothers and sisters. I realized Dan, this, 560 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 1: I didn't play in the NFL to make a lot 561 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 1: of money or to tackle people. I didn't go to 562 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 1: this affluent, top college preparatory school in high school to 563 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:38,440 Speaker 1: get a phenomenal education. I think, Dan, everything I've gone 564 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 1: through in my life has led me to this moment, 565 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 1: has led me to uncomfortable conversations with the black man, 566 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 1: has led me to this series, which over seventy million 567 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 1: people have now seen in five months. My calling, Dan, 568 00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:52,479 Speaker 1: is bigger than myself, and I'm just glad to be 569 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 1: a vessel to be used in the moment. The most 570 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:58,160 Speaker 1: important question I'll ask you, and the most important question 571 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 1: you'll hear all day, is if it was you against 572 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 1: Marcellus Wiley and only one guy, one guy got out 573 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 1: of the octagon, who would it be. Well, first off, 574 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 1: it would be me, because Marcellus Wiley would tire out. Okay, 575 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 1: he doesn't work out anymore. He's a little soft around 576 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 1: the edges, if you know what I mean. And though 577 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 1: he went to Columbia, Dan, I would outsmart him because 578 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 1: I have two degrees, one being in sports psychology, so 579 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,600 Speaker 1: I would do all his tactics against it. Don't let 580 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 1: him for you, Dan, he's got old guys strength though 581 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 1: he's come out. He has grown man strength. Kid, if 582 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 1: he got grown man strength. Good luck with the book 583 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 1: and also with the Fox Sports one with the Speak 584 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 1: for yourself, Thank you, and tell Marcellis we said hello, 585 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 1: thank you, Emmanuel, thank you my brother.

I'm not 592 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,520 Speaker 1: sure where we're headed, but UH here to help us 593 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 1: with our compass is Ross Dellinger. He's Sports Illustrated senior 594 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:12,000 Speaker 1: writer covering college football. How did we get to this point? Ross? 595 00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 1: That we have four games in the SEC that are postponed. 596 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 1: This weekend. Hey, sorry guys, my internet connection is a 597 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 1: little lost this morning. I thought, great, yea to my question. No, 598 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 1: you're going in and out a little bit on maybe, 599 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 1: but I think I caught a most of that. Yeah, 600 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: how do we get to this point? Right, it's been 601 00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:40,080 Speaker 1: it's been a long few weeks and months and um 602 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:42,800 Speaker 1: it's uh, it's been a roller coaster, right, and in 603 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,640 Speaker 1: college sports in general, and everybody's kind of doing their 604 00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:48,200 Speaker 1: own thing or we're doing their own thing over the summer, 605 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 1: and then we kind of all came together lately to 606 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 1: play and now we're experiencing, you know, a second and 607 00:32:54,200 --> 00:33:00,160 Speaker 1: third wave of the virus. In the STEC specifically is 608 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 1: having one of those bad weeks that that we expected. 609 00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:08,320 Speaker 1: But we're talking about contract tracing. And this isn't about 610 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 1: COVID as much positive tests as it is just the 611 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 1: contact tracing. Is that correct with the SEC That's correct? Yeah, 612 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:20,200 Speaker 1: in most cases it's been about contact tracing at other 613 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:22,960 Speaker 1: schools and other conferences as well. It's it's the biggest 614 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 1: turtle dan in completing a season in physicians new over 615 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:30,720 Speaker 1: the summer, it would be it's not the positive cases, 616 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 1: but it's those higher risk contacts or those deemed to 617 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 1: be higher risk contacts, which all conferences are are going 618 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 1: by the CDC guidelines, which is a person within six 619 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,760 Speaker 1: feet for fifteen minutes is a high risk contact. So 620 00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 1: you can imagine if you have one positive in a 621 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:52,960 Speaker 1: football building, you could have five, ten, fifteen high risk contacts. 622 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 1: And that's what we're seeing. We've got as roughly ten 623 00:33:56,080 --> 00:34:00,200 Speaker 1: positives of seven of the eight teams involved than a 624 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:03,920 Speaker 1: postponent in the SEC, there's roughly a combined ten positives. 625 00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:07,360 Speaker 1: Nobody has more than four, I don't think, but it's 626 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:11,440 Speaker 1: the high risk context around them that have been quarantined 627 00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:14,319 Speaker 1: for two weeks. And it's a big hurdle right now 628 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,440 Speaker 1: in college sports is how to deal with this contact 629 00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 1: tracing piece. Of course, we know the NFL you can 630 00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:23,719 Speaker 1: test out of quarantine after five days. Can't do that 631 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:27,520 Speaker 1: in college. I've got Ryan Day, Ohio State's head coach, 632 00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:30,240 Speaker 1: on next hour. Could you see a scenario where Ohio 633 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 1: State doesn't qualify to play for the Big Ten title 634 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:38,319 Speaker 1: game but qualifiers to play for the college football playoffs? Well, 635 00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:41,279 Speaker 1: I you know, I guess, so, yeah, conceivably you could. 636 00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:43,839 Speaker 1: I think they lost the games, so they can't lose. 637 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:45,799 Speaker 1: I think it's two more. Right, you have to play 638 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,520 Speaker 1: at least six, So I guess Ohio State could be 639 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 1: five and zero won't play in the in the Big 640 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:55,800 Speaker 1: Ten title, but the CFP because you had that human element. 641 00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:59,279 Speaker 1: These are people making this is no BCS formula that 642 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,760 Speaker 1: knowing it's Ohio State, knowing what they've done in the past, 643 00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 1: seeing them through five games. Yeah, I guess I never 644 00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:10,240 Speaker 1: didn't really think about that, but I guess that's possible. 645 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:12,600 Speaker 1: But also trying to come up with the rationale for 646 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:18,399 Speaker 1: the College Football Playoff Committee. If I'm BYU or I'm 647 00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:20,440 Speaker 1: A and M and I'm on the outside looking in, 648 00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:24,320 Speaker 1: could I schedule a game? Could we is there awake? 649 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 1: I can add to my resume so I can be 650 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 1: a little bit brighter shinier to the playoff committee? Yeah, 651 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:36,240 Speaker 1: you could. And we've we've seen that, right, It's been 652 00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 1: maybe earlier in the season we've seen that, but we've 653 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 1: seen games scheduled a week out or two weeks out, 654 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:46,160 Speaker 1: wild games are being played, games are being scheduled. We 655 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 1: haven't seen that, I guess in the last few weeks, 656 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 1: but we did see it earlier in the year. I 657 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 1: know there was some talk that, you know, could we 658 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:56,879 Speaker 1: get a BYU Liberty game or something like that too, 659 00:35:56,960 --> 00:36:00,880 Speaker 1: undefeated group of five undefeated teams? Yeah, I mean by 660 00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:03,359 Speaker 1: you could scramble in play a game. I think they 661 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 1: have a look at their schedule recently. I think they 662 00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:10,399 Speaker 1: had still two off weeks left, so conceivably they could 663 00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:15,320 Speaker 1: schedule someone. The problem is is would it be someone worthwhile? 664 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:18,239 Speaker 1: They're not probably going to get a power five in there, 665 00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:20,239 Speaker 1: so it had to be a like a you know, 666 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 1: an undefeated group of five like a Liberty or Cincinnati 667 00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:26,239 Speaker 1: Cinnati for that Yeah. For that matter, did the Big 668 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 1: Ten make a mistake earlier if a game got canceled 669 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:32,920 Speaker 1: that you should be able to go out and schedule. 670 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:35,279 Speaker 1: And the reason why I bring this up, Nebraska was 671 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:36,840 Speaker 1: trying to do this a couple of weeks ago, and 672 00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:39,520 Speaker 1: I just source say that Ohio State in Michigan were 673 00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:43,040 Speaker 1: on Nebraska's side because they realized they could be put 674 00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:46,080 Speaker 1: in this situation. And here you have Ohio States game 675 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:51,560 Speaker 1: against Maryland canceled. I think this season Dan is about flexibility. 676 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:54,759 Speaker 1: And we were all with the SEC commissioner yesterday and 677 00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:56,840 Speaker 1: he has a sign. He said in his office and 678 00:36:57,239 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 1: be flexible this year in twenty twenty, it's it. You 679 00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:04,279 Speaker 1: have to be flexible, and the Big Ten has proven 680 00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,400 Speaker 1: not to be flexible, right they have They're trying to 681 00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:11,560 Speaker 1: play nine games in nine weeks. Um, that is obviously 682 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 1: offers no flexibility. Uh, they would not allow teams to 683 00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:18,279 Speaker 1: as you mentioned, like Nebraska, you know, grab another game. 684 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:23,120 Speaker 1: No flexibility there. H. So you're you're seeing that they're 685 00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:25,759 Speaker 1: they're doing the opposite of some other conferences. Uh, the 686 00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 1: Big Twelve, the ACC, you've seen them be very flexible, 687 00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:32,320 Speaker 1: the SEC to an extent, uh not maybe not as flexible. 688 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:35,440 Speaker 1: They had that one COVID kind of bye weekum and 689 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:38,280 Speaker 1: they're playing a conference only so they haven't allowed that either. 690 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:41,719 Speaker 1: But you've seen a lot of conferences be flexible, and 691 00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:44,319 Speaker 1: that's kind of the theme of this year. So I do. 692 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,879 Speaker 1: I do think the Big Ten and even to an extent, 693 00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 1: the SEC should be more flexible or should have been 694 00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:55,799 Speaker 1: more flexible, specifically with working in off weeks, more off 695 00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:59,520 Speaker 1: weeks into their schedules. Why no talk of an eight 696 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:04,439 Speaker 1: team player off this year, given what we need is flexibility. Yeah, yeah, 697 00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:07,280 Speaker 1: that that was asked to the Commission as he's a commissioner. 698 00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:10,360 Speaker 1: Yesterday he brought up a good point. You know, you 699 00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:14,320 Speaker 1: add more games, they're tougher to complete. We're just trying 700 00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:18,799 Speaker 1: to get through the games that are currently scheduled. So 701 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,480 Speaker 1: if you expand the playoff, it makes it more difficult, 702 00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:24,399 Speaker 1: he said, to complete the playoff, and I think he's 703 00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:27,719 Speaker 1: got a point. Look, we're on the path, and we've 704 00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:30,719 Speaker 1: been on the path to expanding the playoff. You know, 705 00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:33,040 Speaker 1: after the contratract runs out, I have no doubt the 706 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:35,600 Speaker 1: playoff is going to be expanded. I really do. I mean, 707 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:38,080 Speaker 1: we knew Dan when when they announced the playoff it 708 00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:41,839 Speaker 1: was four teams and there are five Power Five conferences. 709 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:43,600 Speaker 1: We knew that was going to be an issue, and 710 00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:46,520 Speaker 1: it has. But ross nobody said, hey, let's just make 711 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 1: it like the BCS. It's one versus two. I mean, 712 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 1: if if we want to have the total safety precautions, 713 00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:55,839 Speaker 1: just have one versus two. Yeah, I mean you're talking 714 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,319 Speaker 1: like this year. Yeah sure. I mean, if we're worried 715 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 1: about safety protocol, safety first, Yeah, that's that's true. I 716 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:06,960 Speaker 1: mean flexibility, right, yeah, I mean just tweak it. Of course, 717 00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:10,520 Speaker 1: you know, we have to always think about the money, right, 718 00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's what I was thinking about. I was 719 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:18,400 Speaker 1: thinking about the money with eighteen playoff. That's why I 720 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 1: was mentioning that before I let you go. The PAC 721 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:25,680 Speaker 1: twelve is irrelevant. How long does this? How long does 722 00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:28,239 Speaker 1: this stay with the PAC twelve, not only this year 723 00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:33,359 Speaker 1: but in subsequent seasons, Ross, I think I lost. Sorry, Dan, 724 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:35,879 Speaker 1: My internet action went out again on me. All right, well, 725 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:37,680 Speaker 1: thank you Ross. Well you won't be able to hear 726 00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:39,680 Speaker 1: me say thank you, Ross, but I'll still say thank you. 727 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:43,920 Speaker 1: Ross Dellinger, Sports Illustrated senior writer covering college football.

It's the Buckeyes head coach coach. 737 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:13,759 Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us. What game film are you looking 738 00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:17,160 Speaker 1: at today? Oh? We got in early and we started 739 00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:19,600 Speaker 1: on the Hoosiers, So just give us a few extra days. 740 00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:23,640 Speaker 1: I guess it's it's been crazy, it's been frustrating, but uh, 741 00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:25,959 Speaker 1: you know, we're just going to move forward and worry 742 00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:29,839 Speaker 1: about what we can control. And Indiana, when did you 743 00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:33,160 Speaker 1: hear the news that the game at Maryland was canceled? Yeah, 744 00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:35,600 Speaker 1: it was about fifteen minutes before our team meeting. We 745 00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 1: always meet it two thirty, you know, for team meetings 746 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:42,280 Speaker 1: each day, and about fifteen minutes before, you know, Gene 747 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:45,240 Speaker 1: let me know, and so we really had the information 748 00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:48,480 Speaker 1: of the team and um, yeah, just a tough day 749 00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:52,319 Speaker 1: for our guys. If you could schedule a replacement game, 750 00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:58,640 Speaker 1: would you, Yeah, because I look back at Nebraska coach, 751 00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 1: and I was told that there are other schools in 752 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:03,480 Speaker 1: the Big Ten that said, hey, you know what, we 753 00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:06,799 Speaker 1: may be facing this scenario as well, that a game 754 00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 1: would be canceled and you need to have that resume 755 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:12,520 Speaker 1: bulked up a little bit. Were you in favor of 756 00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:15,279 Speaker 1: Nebraska being able to play somebody outside the Big Ten 757 00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:18,759 Speaker 1: if a game was canceled? Yeah, I was. You know, 758 00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:23,319 Speaker 1: actually I said that publicly, but especially when it's hard 759 00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:24,799 Speaker 1: to look at your team in the eye and tell 760 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:26,399 Speaker 1: them they can't play when they've done everything you've asked 761 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:28,520 Speaker 1: them to do. I guess you chalk it up to 762 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:31,759 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. I know it's not as easy as just saying, hey, 763 00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:33,440 Speaker 1: let's just go schedule a game. There's a lot of 764 00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:35,520 Speaker 1: implications and different things that have to go into play. 765 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:38,600 Speaker 1: So I totally respect that, but certainly would be in 766 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:40,000 Speaker 1: favor of trying to figure out a way to get 767 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 1: it done. But I also understand the complexity of it all. Yeah, 768 00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:46,520 Speaker 1: and I was wondering if you coaches had been able 769 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:50,080 Speaker 1: to talk to the Big Ten about this, or can 770 00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:52,960 Speaker 1: you have a conversation now because you may run into 771 00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:57,359 Speaker 1: this another time before the Big Ten title a game. Yeah, 772 00:41:57,480 --> 00:41:59,319 Speaker 1: you know, we had a lot of conversations leading up 773 00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:02,560 Speaker 1: to the season, weekly meetings with the Big Ten coaches. 774 00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:04,920 Speaker 1: I mean so many zoom calls. I don't even know 775 00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:07,400 Speaker 1: how many we had, but it was a lot. But 776 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:09,560 Speaker 1: that once you get into the season, it's hard because 777 00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:11,960 Speaker 1: just all of your attention and time goes to winning 778 00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:14,920 Speaker 1: the next game, getting the guys ready for practice, So 779 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:17,000 Speaker 1: it's hard to carve out time to have these type 780 00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:18,920 Speaker 1: of conversations. We could pretty much leave that up to 781 00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:22,560 Speaker 1: the ads and administrators. It just you your time gets 782 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:24,839 Speaker 1: tough during during the week, you've got a good sense 783 00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:29,480 Speaker 1: of how good your team is. Not really no, I 784 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:33,720 Speaker 1: mean I think we have a chance, but without having 785 00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 1: spring ball, without having preseason, without the non conference games, 786 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:39,920 Speaker 1: there's a lot of snaps that our team didn't have, 787 00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:43,359 Speaker 1: and so we're trying to play catch up and get 788 00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:46,239 Speaker 1: going with these snaps, and so I don't know. I 789 00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:48,040 Speaker 1: think we have a chance. I think we have some talent, 790 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:50,759 Speaker 1: but we need to play. We need to play games. 791 00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:52,359 Speaker 1: We need to make mistakes, we need to work through 792 00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:54,839 Speaker 1: those things and learn, and we're you know, the only 793 00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:56,839 Speaker 1: way to do it right now for us to play 794 00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:58,600 Speaker 1: a little bit of is catch up, is to practice 795 00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:01,600 Speaker 1: better and practice against each other. Nothing take, you know, 796 00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:04,239 Speaker 1: replace his games. But we got to do everything we 797 00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:07,160 Speaker 1: can in our power to practice and make sure every 798 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:10,200 Speaker 1: rep and practice is a game rep. But you know, 799 00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:12,840 Speaker 1: I think this game this week, looking forward to to 800 00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:15,000 Speaker 1: to Maryland, was an opportunity to take the next step. 801 00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,040 Speaker 1: We'll just have to keep working and and take that 802 00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:19,280 Speaker 1: next step against Indiana. What did you think of Tonga 803 00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:23,359 Speaker 1: by law? You know, I thought he was playing well 804 00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:26,000 Speaker 1: the last couple of games. I think, you know, they 805 00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:27,440 Speaker 1: did a great job of getting the ball out of 806 00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:30,200 Speaker 1: his hand quickly, especially in the last two games. I 807 00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:33,680 Speaker 1: think he's got some pretty talented receivers um and he 808 00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:34,759 Speaker 1: just kind of has a little bit of that in 809 00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:36,960 Speaker 1: factor and it was going to be, you know, we're 810 00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:39,160 Speaker 1: looking forward to playing them, but a lot of respect 811 00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:43,279 Speaker 1: for that family. They're Ye, there's something magical about those 812 00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 1: He's Ryan Day, the Ohio State head coach. If a 813 00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:49,759 Speaker 1: scout called and said, tell me what Justin Field's best 814 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:53,799 Speaker 1: trade is, what would you say? I think that's what 815 00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:56,560 Speaker 1: makes him special is there's there's several I think when 816 00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:59,240 Speaker 1: you look at him physically, he's he's big, he's strong, 817 00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:02,080 Speaker 1: and he's fast. He's got a strong arm. But he 818 00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:05,360 Speaker 1: has some some just in any accuracy that is special 819 00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:08,040 Speaker 1: and you know, I don't you can't teach things like that. 820 00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:11,680 Speaker 1: He's just he sees it makes sense to him, Spaces 821 00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:14,560 Speaker 1: make sense to him. He can anticipate what his receivers 822 00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:18,160 Speaker 1: and defenders are doing, so accuracy is big. But they 823 00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:21,480 Speaker 1: also is very very intelligent, and he can, you know, 824 00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:23,400 Speaker 1: take a meeting to the field pretty quickly. So I 825 00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:26,040 Speaker 1: think all of those things combine is what makes him special. 826 00:44:26,239 --> 00:44:28,240 Speaker 1: I had a scout tell me it's hard to assess 827 00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:31,839 Speaker 1: Ohio State quarterbacks and not just Ohio State, but other programs, 828 00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:35,759 Speaker 1: because there's so much talent around them. Is that a 829 00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:37,600 Speaker 1: fair I don't know if you get this or you 830 00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:40,760 Speaker 1: will get this, I don't I watched Dwayne Haskins against 831 00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:45,200 Speaker 1: Michigan at home. Those receivers were wide. Oh. I mean 832 00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:47,160 Speaker 1: it felt like he could do whatever he wanted. I 833 00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:50,000 Speaker 1: didn't know how to assess how good he was or is, 834 00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:52,960 Speaker 1: and I think Justin Fields will probably go through that 835 00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:55,279 Speaker 1: as well. Can you see where scouts are gonna go? 836 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:57,600 Speaker 1: How good is he? But how good is the team 837 00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:00,759 Speaker 1: around him? I mean, I think we have a lot 838 00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:02,480 Speaker 1: of talent, and I think that you know, we do 839 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:06,279 Speaker 1: have good pieces around them. But that's um, that's why 840 00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:08,840 Speaker 1: the scouts get paid a lot of money. It's the 841 00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:12,120 Speaker 1: same thing we recruit bad quarterbacks in high school. They 842 00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:13,920 Speaker 1: come from a good program. You got to project the 843 00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:15,640 Speaker 1: best you can and try to figure that part of 844 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:17,759 Speaker 1: it out. But um, but we do. You're right, we 845 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:20,520 Speaker 1: have good players around and that certainly helps. What do 846 00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:22,880 Speaker 1: you look for though? Look? Is it tougher. Do you 847 00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:25,160 Speaker 1: think to see a quarterback playing in the NFL or 848 00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:30,920 Speaker 1: quarterback playing in college when you're when you're recruiting, Um, 849 00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:33,239 Speaker 1: you know, that's a great question. I think the high 850 00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:35,960 Speaker 1: school part is probably the hardest because we don't get 851 00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:38,920 Speaker 1: to spend as much time with them. Where in college, 852 00:45:39,120 --> 00:45:40,919 Speaker 1: you know, these guys come in, they work them out, 853 00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:44,400 Speaker 1: they really spend time with them, They get to know them. 854 00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:46,440 Speaker 1: They can really do anything they want with them physically, 855 00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:49,359 Speaker 1: you know, they can the scouts go and watch them 856 00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:52,920 Speaker 1: play in games. We we don't and especially now with 857 00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:55,800 Speaker 1: everything going on with covid UM, we don't get to 858 00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:58,120 Speaker 1: see these guys play live. And really we don't get 859 00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:00,279 Speaker 1: to work them out either. We're lucky if they come 860 00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:02,480 Speaker 1: to our camp and then we just try to do 861 00:46:02,520 --> 00:46:03,880 Speaker 1: the best we can to figure out who they are 862 00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:06,560 Speaker 1: as people and watch their film. So I think it's 863 00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:09,280 Speaker 1: a it's a lot easier to project them into the NFL. Now, 864 00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:11,880 Speaker 1: they still have to go play man. There's there's a 865 00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:13,520 Speaker 1: lot to goes with that, and that's not easy. So 866 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:16,960 Speaker 1: it's not easy for either situation. But it's it's hard 867 00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:19,840 Speaker 1: in college because you just you don't really get to 868 00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:22,399 Speaker 1: go work people out, you don't get to evaluate them 869 00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:26,400 Speaker 1: in that manner, and so it's it's difficult your players 870 00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:29,719 Speaker 1: know that you played quarterback in college. Some of them do. 871 00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:32,040 Speaker 1: I don't think all of them. I don't think some 872 00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:34,560 Speaker 1: of them will exactly either, but but some of them 873 00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 1: certainly do. What kind of quarterback were you at New Hampshire? UM? 874 00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:44,160 Speaker 1: Probably Chip would probably describe maybe as an overachiever, great athlete. 875 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:48,520 Speaker 1: UM had to figure out ways to make it work 876 00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:50,759 Speaker 1: because it wasn't where. It wasn't as talent as some 877 00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:53,960 Speaker 1: of the other guys UM, which is makes sense probably 878 00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:56,680 Speaker 1: why I'm a coach, trying to figure out the angles 879 00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:58,360 Speaker 1: and then a way to try to find an advantage. 880 00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:02,000 Speaker 1: So but uh, you know, the first three years of 881 00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:04,319 Speaker 1: playing was was the first three years of Chip being 882 00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:07,279 Speaker 1: that the uh you know, a coordinator and kind of 883 00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:10,719 Speaker 1: on the no huddle and the spread was it was 884 00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:13,279 Speaker 1: kind of in its infancy, and so I was a 885 00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:15,520 Speaker 1: guinea pig. Some some days it worked, some days not 886 00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:17,960 Speaker 1: so good. So and I have some of the scars 887 00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:19,800 Speaker 1: to show, but but it was fun to be around it. 888 00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:22,280 Speaker 1: And the Chip you're talking about, of course, as Chip Kelly, 889 00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:26,120 Speaker 1: who was offensive coordinator there at New Hampshire. How often, 890 00:47:26,560 --> 00:47:28,600 Speaker 1: like on a daily basis, how often do you hear 891 00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:34,960 Speaker 1: about Michigan? A lot? I mean, it's just part of 892 00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:38,120 Speaker 1: our life, I think not, you know, kind of being 893 00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:40,640 Speaker 1: an isolation of your home and then being in the 894 00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:42,840 Speaker 1: woody here, it's a little different. You don't get to 895 00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:45,879 Speaker 1: see as many people anymore, you know, but like last year, 896 00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:50,040 Speaker 1: how how how often you're on the street, your grocery store, 897 00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:53,319 Speaker 1: wherever you are, You're often you're hearing about Michigan. Yeah, 898 00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:56,320 Speaker 1: that's all. That's every day. Every day. It's it's that 899 00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:59,320 Speaker 1: my son's bus stop, it's um my wife goes to 900 00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:03,719 Speaker 1: grocery store, or I mean, it's it's every day. I 901 00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:06,759 Speaker 1: love it, but I grew up with it, but I 902 00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:08,400 Speaker 1: don't have to hear it every day like you do. 903 00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:12,680 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's it's the number one thing. I mean, 904 00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:14,719 Speaker 1: your number one job when you get here is to 905 00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:16,919 Speaker 1: be the team of the North. And then every comes 906 00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:20,080 Speaker 1: after that, and so yeah, the anxiety builds you get 907 00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:22,560 Speaker 1: closer to the game, for sure. Well, he got a 908 00:48:22,560 --> 00:48:25,400 Speaker 1: lot of time to figure out Indiana there, and thanks 909 00:48:25,400 --> 00:48:27,520 Speaker 1: for joining us, coach.

They have forty four bunkers 921 00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:07,520 Speaker 1: at Augusta and for the last fifty years they've been 922 00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:11,799 Speaker 1: filling the sand with this white sand that they get 923 00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:15,200 Speaker 1: a four hour drive from Augusta up north in a 924 00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:19,640 Speaker 1: small town called Spruce Pine. And they find that they've 925 00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:23,080 Speaker 1: got this sand that they make that makes it look 926 00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:28,760 Speaker 1: like sugar bowls. So they used to get train cars, 927 00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:35,359 Speaker 1: thirteen train cars that haul coal. They would bring in 928 00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:38,480 Speaker 1: this white sand. But because they had coal in the 929 00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:43,600 Speaker 1: train cars, that would dull the white sand. And they 930 00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:47,040 Speaker 1: eventually brought in new train cars to bring the sand 931 00:49:47,160 --> 00:49:52,800 Speaker 1: into Augusta every year. And it's a special sand that 932 00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:57,320 Speaker 1: they make and only in this place. They actually ship 933 00:49:57,360 --> 00:50:02,319 Speaker 1: it to Dubai and as one of the people there say, 934 00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:05,440 Speaker 1: we actually are so good we sell sand to somebody 935 00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:09,600 Speaker 1: in the desert. But you know, it's the brightest sand 936 00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:12,320 Speaker 1: in the world. According to Tiger Woods. Yes, I was 937 00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:15,080 Speaker 1: reading about this sand. And it's processed so it's not round. 938 00:50:15,160 --> 00:50:18,240 Speaker 1: It's more like chips, and like a little bit of chips. 939 00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:21,359 Speaker 1: So the clubhead plays better off it, and the ball 940 00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:23,680 Speaker 1: plays better off it. And for some reason it has 941 00:50:23,760 --> 00:50:27,240 Speaker 1: less drag or something on the ball and the club 942 00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:29,200 Speaker 1: and to make it more natural feel. But can you 943 00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:31,799 Speaker 1: imagine like if like a d agent pulled over that 944 00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:34,440 Speaker 1: train ten thousand pounds of white sand on its way 945 00:50:34,480 --> 00:50:38,480 Speaker 1: to Augusta. It's going on here, guys for the masters. Yes, yeah, 946 00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:42,920 Speaker 1: I think it's wider than cocaine. But those bunkers stand 947 00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:46,319 Speaker 1: out that it's vibrant when when you're there and I'm 948 00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:48,360 Speaker 1: not in the bunk are very often in Augusta. But 949 00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:50,880 Speaker 1: for those who are like Tiger and some of the 950 00:50:50,920 --> 00:50:54,239 Speaker 1: other guys, you know, they tell me you can't get 951 00:50:54,280 --> 00:50:56,200 Speaker 1: spin on your ball out of there, But it is. 952 00:50:56,760 --> 00:51:00,360 Speaker 1: It is fluffy. It's a great lie in their sounds 953 00:51:00,360 --> 00:51:02,720 Speaker 1: like you get buried, you know, shots in the bunker, 954 00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:07,360 Speaker 1: buried lie. But I wasn't there very often. Why is 955 00:51:07,400 --> 00:51:10,720 Speaker 1: you not going in the bunker? Wow? Todd, that's a shot. 956 00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:14,799 Speaker 1: How to sneaks up to five minutes? Wow? You were 957 00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:18,799 Speaker 1: almost twelve minutes from a perfect show. Almost. It took 958 00:51:18,800 --> 00:51:20,600 Speaker 1: a shot, Yeah you did it. Took my swing. You 959 00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,959 Speaker 1: took a shot, all right? Um so I mentioned what's 960 00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:26,720 Speaker 1: happening this day? Oh, this dame sports history. I didn't 961 00:51:26,880 --> 00:51:30,760 Speaker 1: have that. Todd had his snoreboard. But Paul, he's got some. Besides, 962 00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:33,680 Speaker 1: it's al Michael's birthday, which is fantastic birthday. In nineteen 963 00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:37,319 Speaker 1: sixty seven, Detroit Lions fumbled ten times in one game. 964 00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:40,680 Speaker 1: Ten times your Lions Dan. Nineteen fifty three, the NFL 965 00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:43,040 Speaker 1: policy of blacking out home games was upheld by a 966 00:51:43,040 --> 00:51:46,720 Speaker 1: federal judge in Philadelphia, a district judge in Philadephah, what's up, Holmes, 967 00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:48,799 Speaker 1: And people don't remember there was a time when if 968 00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:51,760 Speaker 1: your team didn't solid home games, you couldn't watch it locally. Yeah. 969 00:51:51,920 --> 00:51:55,280 Speaker 1: Nineteen thirty three in Philadelphia. Also, the first Sunday football 970 00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:57,040 Speaker 1: game was played. It was not allowed to play football 971 00:51:57,040 --> 00:51:59,759 Speaker 1: on Sunday before that, and then in eighteen ninety two, 972 00:51:59,800 --> 00:52:03,680 Speaker 1: Wiam Heffelfinger, his name was Pudge, became the first professional 973 00:52:03,680 --> 00:52:06,280 Speaker 1: football player. He was paid a five hundred dollar bonus 974 00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:09,919 Speaker 1: for helping out a team called Allegheny Athletic Association beat 975 00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:15,239 Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Athletic Club. So that sellout Hefflefinger, Pudge, I 976 00:52:15,360 --> 00:52:18,240 Speaker 1: like it.
