1
00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:05,560
Speaker 1: Welcome to The Solid Verbal. Come after me!

2
00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:09,680
Speaker 2: I'm a man, I'm 40! I've heard so many players say, well,

3
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:11,640
Speaker 2: I want to be happy. You want to be happy

4
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:13,000
Speaker 2: for day? Eat a steak.

5
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 1: Is that woo woo!

6
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:17,080
Speaker 2: And Dan and Ty.

7
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 1: Dan Rubenstein, it is preview season! At long last, my friend,

8
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:26,079
Speaker 1: welcome back to the show. How are you?

9
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 2: I'm great. I got to give you a warning because

10
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:34,920
Speaker 2: today where this is the episode one of preview season

11
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 2: where we review all things new for the sport, for teams,

12
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:44,520
Speaker 2: for media, for coaches, whatever, for the twenty twenty five season.

13
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,199
Speaker 2: If I sound like I have some extra zip to

14
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 2: me today, I just brewed up a cup of coffee

15
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 2: with not a sponsor, but beans that were I don't

16
00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:00,560
Speaker 2: even know what this means, processed with watermelon, Oh coffee,

17
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:05,560
Speaker 2: beans processed with watermelon by I think a roaster named

18
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:08,880
Speaker 2: Methodical Coffee in Greenville, South Carolina. Not a sponsor would

19
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 2: be very specific, could be and delicious, absolutely, but wild,

20
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:20,039
Speaker 2: absolutely bonkers on the palette and I like it. But

21
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 2: this is my first time and it's new to me. So,

22
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:27,679
Speaker 2: as Gwen would say, is it's all happening on today's

23
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:31,959
Speaker 2: show New coffee taste and new everything in college football,

24
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,479
Speaker 2: everything called those little heart palps you're feeling right now,

25
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 2: deep down in the chest.

26
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're getting ready for the twenty twenty five season.

27
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 1: This is the first of like sixteen preview episodes that

28
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 1: we're going to be dropping to the feed here in.

29
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 2: Just a little bit.

30
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 1: This will be the only episode you hear this week,

31
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 1: mainly because of the July fourth holiday and nobody downloads

32
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 1: and July fourth. We know this from experience. But starting

33
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 1: next Tuesday now, we're going to be rolling through conference

34
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 1: by conference by conference until we get to mid August.

35
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,079
Speaker 1: When we get through all the preview content, we can

36
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 1: start building I guess a little bit more properly for

37
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 1: the season. That is a little bit more in front

38
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 1: of us right now, it's still a bit off in

39
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,519
Speaker 1: the distance. But this is the earliest we have ever

40
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 1: done our previews. We are excited to do it. You

41
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 1: and I had a conversation. We just came to the

42
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: point where we just couldn't wait any longer. We couldn't

43
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 1: wait any longer.

44
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:29,959
Speaker 2: So today is the.

45
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:34,959

Speaker 1: Either really enjoyed it or they're good at pretending one

64
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 1: way or the other. Block of set all of your support.

65
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 1: So look, we did an episode like this a year ago.

66
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 1: We did it before the twenty four season, and the

67
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:32,920
Speaker 1: reason that we did it was because there was a

68
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 1: lot changing last year. Think about all of the new

69
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 1: stuff that went down last year with big time, power

70
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 1: conference realignment, and a playoff system, and I'm not going

71
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 1: to rehash all of that right now, but there was

72
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 1: a lot that was different before last season. So we

73
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 1: thought at the time this would be a good idea

74
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 1: just to catch people up, because you know, the drill,

75
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 1: summer's here, people are.

76
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 2: Doing other things.

77
00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 1: At some point you're gonna start popping your head up

78
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 1: and realizing, oh, football is getting closer.

79
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 2: Yep.

80
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 1: We need to acquaint ourselves with what's what's different, what's changing,

81
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 1: and what are the high level talking points that I

82
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 1: should know as a college football fan. That episode, more

83
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 1: than any we did all throughout last season, really all

84
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 1: throughout last year, is the episode that people went back

85
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 1: to the most and downloaded most after the fact. Most

86
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,039
Speaker 1: of what we do has like a seventy two hour

87
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: shelf life. This one didn't. This one was popular. This

88
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 1: one was definitely a quick reference episode that people went

89
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,720
Speaker 1: back to and referred to and sent to friends. So

90
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 1: we thought, well, hey, if it ain't broke, just do

91
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 1: it again.

92
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 2: If people are asking themselves what kind of melon are

93
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,360
Speaker 2: Dan's coffee beans pressed with, and like, oh that's right,

94
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 2: good refresher, good Dan caffeine Rosetta Stone episode glad to

95
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 2: hear it.

96
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:54,480
Speaker 1: So that's where we're at here. Yes, we're not going

97
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 1: to be doing twenty twenty four news. We are going

98
00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 1: to be doing twenty twenty five news. I have seventeen

99
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: pages of no in front of me, FYI, in case

100
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 1: you were wondering what is different, what is changing? What

101
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,919
Speaker 1: are we trying to inform people of? I will spare

102
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,919
Speaker 1: you any more preamble, and I think we should just

103
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:14,480
Speaker 1: dive right into this thing. Can you give me a

104
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 1: little bit more Gwen though, please?

105
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:21,360
Speaker 2: Or never? By the way, underrated No Doubt album, Return

106
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 2: of Saturn. I want to say some good ones on there,

107
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 2: ty some good ones. Just one more win, just another

108
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 2: one more listen, thank you sultry. Yeah.

109
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,919
Speaker 1: So the first question is when does the season start? Okay,

110
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 1: great question, don't want a gloss over the obvious, but

111
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 1: the season starts Week zero starts officially on August twenty,

112
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,840
Speaker 1: third month and a half or so from now, at

113
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 1: noon Eastern time. They are playing the Pharmageddon Game this

114
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 1: year in Dublin, Ireland, over at Aviva Stadium.

115
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 2: To open the season instead of playing it Rivalry week ish.

116
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, correct, Kansas State versus Iowa State. It's going to

117
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 1: be the first game of the season. There are three

118
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:07,239
Speaker 1: other games on August the twenty third. We got Fresno

119
00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 1: at Kansas, which is interesting, may not be as high

120
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 1: profile as a rivalry game, but we've obviously got a

121
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 1: new coach on the Fresno side, Matt Enz. We'll get

122
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,839
Speaker 1: to that on one of our upcoming episodes. But it's

123
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 1: going to be like the grand reopening of Kansas Stadium,

124
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 1: which has been under renovation now for a while. So

125
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 1: there's that. We've also got Sam Houston against Western Kentucky

126
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 1: and Stanford at Hawaii. But the big one, the big

127
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 1: one is k State against Iowa State. If any of

128
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,680
Speaker 1: our Irish rebawlers out there are going to be at

129
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 1: the game, or if our any you know, k State

130
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 1: or Iowa State fans are planning to make the trip over,

131
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,600
Speaker 1: we would encourage you to give us a holler, let

132
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 1: us know what that experience is like. But in case

133
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,480
Speaker 1: you're wondering when is this all starting up, it's starting

134
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 1: up here on August the twenty third, week zero. That

135
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 1: is your week zero, So why don't we start here?

136
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,280
Speaker 1: Twenty twenty five is not twenty twenty four. It's got

137
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 1: its own comple of new things, but it is different,

138
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 1: I think in a couple key ways. And you and

139
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,279
Speaker 1: I talked a little bit about this off air. But

140
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 1: for as unfamiliar as a lot of what we saw

141
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 1: at the start of last season felt, I think to

142
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 1: some extent, the opposite is true in twenty twenty five.

143
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 1: There's a lot of familiarity to hang your hat on.

144
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 1: Maybe just because we know the system better now, and

145
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 1: we know the conferences better now, and you know, we're

146
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 1: just used to some of these things that felt different

147
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: or so different a year ago, it's a little bit

148
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 1: more comforting I think headed into twenty twenty five. That

149
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 1: being said, it's not without its own set of new things. Right,

150
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 1: We've got totally a bunch of new quarterbacks in big places,

151
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 1: either names that we had come to know last year

152
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 1: just because we followed depth charts, or new names entirely,

153
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 1: like Bryce Underwood at Michigan. Right, that's clearly going to

154
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 1: be a guy who has an impact on that program.

155
00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 1: But am I alone in just I don't know, searching

156
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 1: my feelings and feeling like, all right, maybe there's a

157
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 1: little bit more here that we are used to that

158
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 1: doesn't feel as foreign as say, a year ago.

159
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's sort of what's new is old. That's the

160
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 2: new thing about twenty twenty five is that it feels

161
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 2: less new than it did last year. If that makes

162
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 2: any sense, that's maybe strained logic a little bit.

163
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 1: No, I think it does. I feel the same thing, man,

164
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 1: I really do.

165
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 2: So, Okay, here's where we are. Your team's right. Penn

166
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 2: State is returning a ton it's the same coach, it's

167
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 2: a new defensive coordinator, but it's the same offensive coordinator,

168
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 2: the same quarterback, a lot of familiar faces. Notre Dame

169
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 2: has an internal quarterback who is going to be starting

170
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 2: in CJ. Carr, And even though they have a new

171
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 2: defensive coordinator, Notre Dame feels very familiar. My team, we

172
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 2: can say the same thing. It's our show, so we'll

173
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 2: start with our teams a little bit, right. Dante Moore committed,

174
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:55,439
Speaker 2: Dante mor transferred last year. He's been around, Dan Lannings around,

175
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 2: The coordinators are still around, Like there's a lot of

176
00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 2: familiarity there with Oregon. But then you look across the sport,

177
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 2: like you look up and down the West Coast, it's

178
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 2: same quarterbacks at Washington and USC. You look across, you

179
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 2: know Texas. Arch Manning has been there for now three years,

180
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 2: and it's what's new is that he's starting. But like

181
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 2: Sark has been around, like Gunner, Stockton is a familiar

182
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,439
Speaker 2: face because of how it things ended at Georgia. Right,

183
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 2: that there's so much of there's so much more continuity.

184
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 2: It feels among a lot of major programs at least

185
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,960
Speaker 2: that that continuity. Like it's now the second year of

186
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 2: the twelve team playoff, Like we're more familiar with how

187
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 2: the portal does and doesn't work, and nil doesn't doesn't work,

188
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 2: although there are new elements to that as well. So

189
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:42,120
Speaker 2: like in that way, I think you're right. I hope

190
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 2: we're right that what's new is things feel familiar.

191
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 1: Things feel familiar even if they are new or old

192
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 1: names and new places. Sure still simply so, Like Carson

193
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,559
Speaker 1: Beck is a really good example of this. M Carson

194
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 1: Beck's can be at Miami. So that's new, But Carson

195
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:06,560
Speaker 1: Beck isn't a new entity in college football. Arch Manning.

196
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 1: Arch Manning and his starting era beginning at Texas might

197
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 1: be the biggest story in college football going into twenty

198
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,559
Speaker 1: twenty five. But everybody knows arch Manning. We got to

199
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 1: see him a little bit last year. I haven't seen

200
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 1: enough of him yet to really grade him out, but

201
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 1: you kind of know what you're getting there. It really

202
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 1: runs the gamut from names like arch Manning and Carson

203
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 1: Beck to Fernando Mendoza at Indiana, transferring in from cal

204
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: to Jackson Arnold at Auburn, transferring in from Oklahoma to

205
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 1: nico Iamaliava transferring to UCLA from Tennessee, all the way

206
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 1: down like Bo Prabula at Missou. You've got a bunch

207
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 1: of quarterbacks and this is because of the transfer.

208
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 2: Portal Bo Prabula Penn State to Missoo.

209
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, a bunch of quarterbacks who are going to be

210
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 1: in new spots. And you mentioned guys like Gunner Stockton

211
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:04,960
Speaker 1: who will be stepping into a role Julian saying. Another

212
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 1: one who will be stepping into likely at starting role

213
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 1: at Ohio State CJ.

214
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:10,040
Speaker 2: Carr.

215
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:13,079
Speaker 1: Alabama's got some new names that we'll have to get

216
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 1: acquainted with here as we go through preview season. These

217
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 1: are names that I think a lot of college football

218
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 1: fans are accustomed to, but maybe not fully briefed yet

219
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,000
Speaker 1: on where they're going to be playing, and as we

220
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 1: get into our team previews, we can talk a little

221
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 1: bit more about what's to be expected there. To that point, yeah,

222
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 1: it's not a quarterback. You got a guy by the

223
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:33,960
Speaker 1: name of Bill Belichick. Ever heard of him?

224
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 2: Yes, we do. Familiar name, new place.

225
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 1: Now, if you follow college football at all over the

226
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 1: last eight months, you know that Bill Belichick's been a

227
00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 1: little bit in the news for seemingly some of the

228
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 1: wrong reasons. But Bill Belichick taking over North Carolina, Lady friend,

229
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 1: relatively new to this world. Yeah, new to this world. Yeah,

230
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:58,880
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick taking over. And then to your other point, Yeah,

231
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 1: there are some I think familiar questions about teams that frankly,

232
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 1: have been in the news a lot over the last

233
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 1: decade or so. Team like a Georgia in Georgia rebound.

234
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:15,440
Speaker 1: What does it look like for Georgia right this season?

235
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 1: We spent a great chunk of last season talking about

236
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,959
Speaker 1: is the competition catching up to Georgia?

237
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 2: Yeah? Something broken with Georgia's offense?

238
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:29,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, still beat Texas twice, but yep, what's broken with Georgia?

239
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 1: Can they fix it? Can they in Georgia rebound? I'm

240
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 1: gonna ask the same question. I think about Clemson this year.

241
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 1: It maybe has a little bit of a different feel

242
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 1: given the way that Clemson went out last season, But

243
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 1: it seems as if the stars are aligned for Clemson

244
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 1: maybe to jump back into this race and be more

245
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 1: of a title threat than we thought at the beginning

246
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:52,680
Speaker 1: of last season. There's a lot of good reason to

247
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 1: be excited about the Clemson Tigers, Penn State, Penn State.

248
00:12:57,880 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 1: We're used to talking about Penn State. After the last

249
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:04,079
Speaker 1: two seasons. The Penn State feels like this year would

250
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 1: be the year, and a lot of folks are really

251
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 1: high on the Nitdney Lions. Where are we at with

252
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:13,920
Speaker 1: Penn State? What does that national championship window look like?

253
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 1: I'll give you one again. More teams were used to

254
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 1: talking about how about the whole friggin state of Florida. Sure,

255
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 1: how about the Florida Gators, the Florida State Seminoles, the

256
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,839
Speaker 1: Miami Hurricanes, three of the big schools in Florida, all

257
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:32,840
Speaker 1: of which have really big questions about the hot seat

258
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 1: situation for Billy Napier and I guess, Mike Norvell, I mean,

259
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 1: it's fair to ask that after a three and nine

260
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 1: season Miami getting a new quarterback, but I think more

261
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 1: significantly a new defensive coordinator from Minnesota, which maybe we

262
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 1: can talk through here. These are all the types of

263
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:49,680
Speaker 1: questions that I think are going to be the main

264
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 1: storylines coming into the season, and frankly, none of them

265
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 1: are out of left field. These are all things that

266
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:57,679
Speaker 1: we saw coming at the end of last season. So

267
00:13:57,840 --> 00:13:59,440
Speaker 1: in that sense, I guess we're kind of picking up

268
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: where we left them.

269
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, on that same token and continuing with

270
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 2: the like, what's old is new? Rich Rodriguez head coach

271
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:13,200
Speaker 2: the West Virginia University, how about Scott Frost new coach

272
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,839
Speaker 2: UCF speaking of the state of Florida, new old coach?

273
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,359
Speaker 2: What's new as old, what's old is new? Blah blah blah.

274
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:24,600
Speaker 2: And I guess to extrapolate that further is what's new

275
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 2: is major programs or semi major programs are not making

276
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 2: huge coaching changes seemingly as often as they used to

277
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 2: because I think a lot of boosters would rather spend

278
00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:43,560
Speaker 2: their money elsewhere, specifically players on the field, than paying

279
00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:48,080
Speaker 2: coaches not to coach. And so with the major coaching

280
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 2: changes I think being limited to West Virginia UCF, North

281
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 2: Carolina of course with Mac Brown to Bill Belichick, Wake Forest,

282
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 2: and what Purdue with Barry Odom. Yeah, we had six six.

283
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 1: Five programs making a coaching change in some regard if

284
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:05,440
Speaker 1: you want to account Stanford in there because of their

285
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:09,760
Speaker 1: interim situation. Six but no, there wasn't that much activity,

286
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 1: at least on the Power five level with respect to

287
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 1: coaching changes. And you do have to wonder how does

288
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 1: it tie into the I guess bigger picture within college

289
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 1: football with how money is going to be moving differently,

290
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 1: we'll talk about that transfer portal, denil the need to

291
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 1: maybe reinvest in a program the way Florida has and

292
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:35,360
Speaker 1: keeping billion apier around but investing more heavily. Sam Pittman, Markansas,

293
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 1: Sam Pittman, Right, So it definitely has altered the calculation,

294
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:41,720
Speaker 1: I think a little bit. We probably won't know for

295
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 1: a couple of years how much.

296
00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 2: Here's here's my question. Here's the first sidebar of the episode,

297
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 2: solid verbal style guide question. Are we going power five

298
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 2: or power four? I know the PAC twelve is sort

299
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 2: of I thought that I say power five, You've said

300
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 2: power five a couple of times. That's I think muscle memory.

301
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 2: But it's a actually interesting question. Like I I can't

302
00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 2: consider Power five until we actually see what the new

303
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,400
Speaker 2: look back twelve looks like next year. That's definitely sort

304
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 2: of new, new, new, because they just announced I think

305
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 2: a TV deal with like the CBS spe of Networks, Yeah, CBS,

306
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:19,880
Speaker 2: but I think it's Power four for NOWO plus Power

307
00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 2: four and a half. Yeah.

308
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 1: Okay, So let's start here, Dan, We're gonna build into

309
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 1: some of those talking points, but here are some of

310
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 1: the new things that I think our audience needs to know.

311
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 1: You may have read a lot over the last couple

312
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 1: months about revenue sharing. I'm pausing here because anytime you

313
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 1: mentioned that, anytime you start talking about the college football

314
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 1: business stuff, people's ears and eyes and brains glaze over.

315
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, and also processed with watermelon.

316
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:53,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, enough of this already. May have heard of the

317
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:57,720
Speaker 1: House settlement. The House Settlement is now resolved. This paves

318
00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 1: the way for schools to share up to about twenty

319
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:03,440
Speaker 1: and a half million dollars with student athletes. Most of

320
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 1: that goes to football football generate. It's like eighty percent

321
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 1: of the revenue. Most of that's going to go to

322
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 1: football players. Twenty and a half million dollars is at

323
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:15,639
Speaker 1: least the initial cap that schools can I emphasize, can

324
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:17,919
Speaker 1: share with student athletes if they want to. You're not

325
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:21,679
Speaker 1: required to participate, obviously, if you do, that puts you,

326
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 1: I think, at something of a competitive advantage versus those

327
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:28,040
Speaker 1: who don't. Right, there is definitely a larger conversation here

328
00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,399
Speaker 1: about how that widens the gap between the haves and

329
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 1: the have nots. But notably, this is also separate from nil. Right,

330
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,879
Speaker 1: is not the same thing. And I think it's really

331
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,159
Speaker 1: easy to lump those two together because it's all you know,

332
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 1: it's all funny money, right, right.

333
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:47,919
Speaker 2: That schools weren't on the hook before to pay a

334
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:51,640
Speaker 2: percentage of their television revenue up and up to twenty

335
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:55,160
Speaker 2: and a half million dollars. But now it's an and

336
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 2: not an ore or instead of yeah.

337
00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:01,080
Speaker 1: That's right. So these are separate entities. Do your best

338
00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 1: not to confuse the two of them. We now have

339
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:06,679
Speaker 1: revenue sharing in college football. It is going to be

340
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:09,960
Speaker 1: governed by the way, as we discussed on our episode

341
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 1: last week with Ralph Russo, by something called the College

342
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:17,439
Speaker 1: Sports Commission. It was set up as a separate, independent entity.

343
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 1: It's going to oversee annual revenue sharing caps and roster

344
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 1: limits and third party nil stuff.

345
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:29,400
Speaker 2: It is seemingly taking over that chunk.

346
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 1: Of the enforcement duties from the NCAA, which is a

347
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:36,240
Speaker 1: whole other ballas that we're not going to expand upon

348
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 1: too much in this episode. This is an intro to

349
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 1: the season, not a deep dive of revenue sharing, correct,

350
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:43,680
Speaker 1: but just something to keep your eye on. Okay, that's

351
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 1: the first big change I think structurally speaking to college

352
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:47,879
Speaker 1: football that people should just be aware of.

353
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:51,199
Speaker 2: And it's also interesting because certain schools, and we're not

354
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 2: going to be labor this obviously, they have financial responsibilities

355
00:18:55,760 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 2: to other sports and some schools are just like football, football, football,

356
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:05,239
Speaker 2: and some schools have national championship aspirations, you know, with

357
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:08,400
Speaker 2: their men's or women's basketball teams, or their baseball teams

358
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 2: or you know, any any specific sports that are you know,

359
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 2: revenue generating on some level, and they're competing with like

360
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:19,360
Speaker 2: Texas Tech and softball. Right that they were super aggressive

361
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:22,600
Speaker 2: in the portal like that. There are situations where you're

362
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 2: just like, yeah, maybe we're not going to spend as

363
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 2: much on football and we'll lean on the collective a

364
00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,440
Speaker 2: little bit more and so yeah, it's fascinating to see

365
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 2: how different schools are going to a lot different amounts

366
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 2: of money. Even though we do know football is going

367
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:36,719
Speaker 2: to it's going to command the biggest, biggest chunk of it.

368
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:42,760
Speaker 1: Second, big change, Yes, playoff seating. They're using a straight

369
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,240
Speaker 1: seating model. One year was enough of the old, in

370
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 1: with the new.

371
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,120
Speaker 2: Mess with Oregon once. Yeah, you mess with the bull,

372
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 2: you get the horns. Yeah.

373
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 1: The way this is going to work, the top four

374
00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 1: teams in the final rankings, regardless of whether or not

375
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:03,239
Speaker 1: they won their conference championship. Those top four teams are

376
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,159
Speaker 1: going to get first round bys. Remember the way it

377
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 1: worked last year, you had to win your conference in

378
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 1: order to buy That's how Arizona stake at the bye

379
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:14,360
Speaker 1: this year. Doing away with it, it also means Notre Dame

380
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:16,439
Speaker 1: could get a first round by, which they couldn't before,

381
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:18,879
Speaker 1: So that, I guess is different if you're a Notre

382
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 1: Dame fan, something that I've been paying attention to. But

383
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,920
Speaker 1: hopefully this makes the system a little bit easier to

384
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 1: understand before they change the whole damn thing up again

385
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:30,880
Speaker 1: next year in a whole likelihood. Right, So again, pay

386
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,439
Speaker 1: attention to the final rankings. Top four teams now are

387
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:35,919
Speaker 1: the ones that get the buys. Okay, clear, good, we

388
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 1: are clear. Seems reasonable. We've got two new teams entering

389
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 1: college football, as if we didn't already have enough, we

390
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:46,320
Speaker 1: have one hundred and thirty six now.

391
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 2: Two teams entering FBS college football. To be clear, not

392
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:52,639
Speaker 2: just college football as a whole. They're not starting new

393
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:54,359
Speaker 2: teams at the call at the FBS level.

394
00:20:55,000 --> 00:21:00,159
Speaker 1: Two teams that are joining Conference USA from the FCS ranks. Yes,

395
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 1: one is Delaware, Go Blue Hens. Of course they're joining

396
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:08,080
Speaker 1: from the Coastal Athletic Association at CIA. We've also got

397
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:12,320
Speaker 1: Missouri State joining Conference USA from the Missouri Valley Conference

398
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 1: m H. The only other bit of I guess meaningful

399
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 1: confentory alignment news as it relates to this season. There

400
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 1: is talk going on around what next season looks like

401
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 1: the PAC twelve and stuff. I can reference that here

402
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,840
Speaker 1: in a moment. But the only other big one is

403
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:30,680
Speaker 1: that U Mass is now going to be a full

404
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:32,439
Speaker 1: member of the MAC.

405
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 2: SO.

406
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:36,920
Speaker 1: I may recall that U Mass made the jump to FBS.

407
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,360
Speaker 1: I believe the twenty twelve season was their first they

408
00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:43,640
Speaker 1: were a football only member of the MAC. They ended

409
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 1: up going and dependent a couple of years after that

410
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:48,640
Speaker 1: in like twenty sixteen, but now starting in this year,

411
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:52,360
Speaker 1: full member all sports joining the MAC.

412
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,640
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay.

413
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 1: This is also going to be the final year for

414
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:01,399
Speaker 1: a couple programs in their current conference just because of

415
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,520
Speaker 1: this PAC twelve resurgence.

416
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 2: And reactions reverberations thereof yeah continue.

417
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:11,680
Speaker 1: At time of recording, we've got Boise State, Colorado State,

418
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:16,120
Speaker 1: Fresno State, San Diego State, Utah State all jumping over

419
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,679
Speaker 1: to the PAC twelve. That's five teams yes, next season

420
00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:24,040
Speaker 1: correct Okay. As a result, we've also got some more

421
00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:27,000
Speaker 1: of that Chaine reaction business where NIU is going to

422
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,240
Speaker 1: join the Mountain West UTEP is going to join the

423
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:34,320
Speaker 1: Mountain West Northern Illinois leaving the MAC UTEP leaving Conference USA.

424
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 1: My hunch is that there will be more news on

425
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 1: this front as the PAC twelve is now secured meteorites

426
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 1: and as they're trying to reconstitute the conference.

427
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,000
Speaker 2: But at time of recording, that's what we got for you,

428
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,240
Speaker 2: and I believe you can correct me if I'm wrong here.

429
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 2: As a result of this, Gonzaga basketball is joining the

430
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:54,639
Speaker 2: PAC twelve next year as well, which just terms of

431
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 2: college sports, that's enormous, huge, So yeah, don't hate that.

432
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 1: No, there we'll be more dominos to fall in that front.

433
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:06,119
Speaker 1: We're recording this on June twenty third. There's a pretty

434
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 1: good chance that stuff's going to come out after this.

435
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,440
Speaker 1: So we'll touch base with that a little bit later

436
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 1: on a few other things, just in terms of context.

437
00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 1: All right, you can speed run all this stuff if

438
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 1: you want to. We'll try to talk our way through

439
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:21,959
Speaker 1: it as best we can. They're getting rid of your

440
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:25,920
Speaker 1: landing loopholeed in what that's a whole twelve minute on

441
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 1: the field things. So the way the new rule is

442
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,760
Speaker 1: going to be worked written now, excuse me, the way

443
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:34,080
Speaker 1: it's going to work after the two minute timeout in

444
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 1: either half, if the defense commits a foul having twelve

445
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,680
Speaker 1: or more guys on the field and all the players

446
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 1: participate in the play, the officials are going to give

447
00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:46,919
Speaker 1: a five yeard penalty. The offensive team's going to have

448
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,680
Speaker 1: the option to reset the game clock back to who

449
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 1: it was the start of the play. If the twelfth

450
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 1: player tries to leave the field but does an influence

451
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,040
Speaker 1: the play, the defensive team is going to be penalized

452
00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 1: five yards with Doajoz. They're doing away with the landing loophole,

453
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:03,960
Speaker 1: the one that we saw when Oregon played Ohio State

454
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:05,920
Speaker 1: when they got the ten second runoff.

455
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 2: What other loopholes or not loopholes, but what other rule

456
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 2: changes stood out to you. I guess I'm fine with

457
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 2: it right that Dan Lanning was able to utilize it effectively,

458
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:20,879
Speaker 2: and the College Football Rules Committee decided that it was

459
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 2: against the spirit of college football and they wanted to

460
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:27,600
Speaker 2: tighten up that rule. And what will happen now is

461
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,840
Speaker 2: not just Dan Lanning, but every single coach and every

462
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:35,399
Speaker 2: single staff will try to figure out and squeeze blood

463
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,720
Speaker 2: out of every rule rock to find new loopholes until

464
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,560
Speaker 2: those are closed, and as they should. That's, you know,

465
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:43,879
Speaker 2: it's gamesmanship. There are.

466
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:49,120
Speaker 1: Four and a half rule modifications that I will talk

467
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:52,480
Speaker 1: through quickly that jumped out to me. Okay, injury timeouts.

468
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:57,479
Speaker 1: Everyone's moaning about fake injuries now, right. If a player

469
00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:59,760
Speaker 1: is injured after the ball is spotted for the next

470
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:03,040
Speaker 1: their team gets charge of timeout, and if they're out

471
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 1: of timeouts, then it's a five yard delay of game penalty.

472
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:07,680
Speaker 1: So they're trying to curb fake injuries.

473
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.

474
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:14,040
Speaker 1: Overtimes it's minor now, starting with a third overtime period,

475
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 1: each team only has one time out for the remainder

476
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 1: of the game. Before I think you had one per

477
00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:19,879
Speaker 1: overtime period.

478
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:22,960
Speaker 2: The Kirby rule. Kirby was running onto the fields in

479
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,720
Speaker 2: the Georgia Tech game. You know, he would see how

480
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 2: Georgia Tech would align and then call a timeout. Kickoffs,

481
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:30,560
Speaker 2: you know how guys kind of hold out the tee.

482
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:34,120
Speaker 1: Mm hmm. Now if you hold out the tee, that's

483
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 1: fair catch.

484
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:39,840
Speaker 2: Okay. Any r movement that isn't necessarily catch related is

485
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:41,560
Speaker 2: now being looked at closer.

486
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:44,120
Speaker 1: It says if any player on a kickoff return makes

487
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:46,040
Speaker 1: a T signal with his arms during the kick, they

488
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:47,639
Speaker 1: give up the right to make a return and the

489
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:50,919
Speaker 1: play will be whistled dead. Basically a fair catch. And

490
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:58,199
Speaker 1: then my favorite one here Dan replay announcements. Okay, I

491
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,640
Speaker 1: suppose this has roots in the your two minute timeout

492
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:03,480
Speaker 1: thing from a year ago where they couldn't call it

493
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:06,200
Speaker 1: a two minute warning. I still don't really understand the

494
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 1: logic behind that, But okay, this year, when officials come

495
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:16,439
Speaker 1: out there and make a decision on instant replay, the

496
00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:18,879
Speaker 1: referee is only going to say that the call in

497
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:23,560
Speaker 1: the field is quote upheld or overturned. They will no

498
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:27,879
Speaker 1: longer be using the words confirmed or saying that the

499
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:32,479
Speaker 1: call stands okay, as they have in past. Again, I

500
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:35,120
Speaker 1: don't really know who's making these rules or why they're

501
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:38,160
Speaker 1: doing it. I'm guessing maybe when we talk to Gene's territory,

502
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:39,919
Speaker 1: he can give us some insight as to why they

503
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:40,639
Speaker 1: might want to do this.

504
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:44,640
Speaker 2: It sounds like they want to be as supportive as

505
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:49,440
Speaker 2: possible of the officials on the field, as I guess.

506
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,640
Speaker 1: I guess either way, they will be using different verbiage

507
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 1: this year. There are other rules we won't go through,

508
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:59,840
Speaker 1: punt formations and simulation rules and all sorts of stuff

509
00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:02,359
Speaker 1: like this. We're also not an FCS show, but I

510
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:06,159
Speaker 1: saw that they will now optionally have helmet to helmet

511
00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:09,840
Speaker 1: communication if it's something that they want to do, keep

512
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 1: track of FCS levels. Be curious to know if that

513
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 1: has any real impact. I can't imagine it wouldn't. Okay,

514
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:19,439
Speaker 1: but yeah, we've got a couple rule tweaks here that

515
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:20,920
Speaker 1: I think are relevant for the audience.

516
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:24,640
Speaker 2: Definitely, Although we didn't really consider the twelfth Man thing

517
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 2: until somebody considered it.

518
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:30,440
Speaker 1: And so here we are, here, we are all right. Now,

519
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:34,840
Speaker 1: let's talk about coaches. Let's so much of the sport

520
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:38,879
Speaker 1: is driven by coaches. The big name was Bill Belichick.

521
00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:45,080
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick got his own emergency episode here on the show, rightfully.

522
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 1: So he's a big name, perhaps the greatest coach of

523
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:51,440
Speaker 1: all time at the NFL level. How he fares at

524
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:58,360
Speaker 1: the college ranks UNC, all the stuff surrounding him at

525
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 1: UNC that remains me seen with Bill Belichick. Bill Belichick

526
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 1: going to be taken over at UNC.

527
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,479
Speaker 2: And also starts with TCU in the same way that

528
00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 2: Deon Sanders, that Colorado did, right North Carolina does.

529
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:16,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, Rich Rodriguez previously with Jacksonville State, yep, taking over

530
00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:19,000
Speaker 1: for Neil Brown. Neil Brown is I think a special

531
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:22,439
Speaker 1: assistant at Texas now. But Rich rod coming back to

532
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:27,640
Speaker 1: West Virginia. Scott Frost coming back to UCF Hmm, what's

533
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:30,960
Speaker 1: new is old? Right? Yes? Melzon leaves to be offensive

534
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:35,280
Speaker 1: coordinator at Florida State. Scott Frost is back, baby, He's

535
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:39,520
Speaker 1: back elsewhere at the Power four level.

536
00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 2: There it is, there, it is.

537
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:44,760
Speaker 1: Barry Odom comes to Purdue from UNLV. Ryan Walters was

538
00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 1: let go. I think he's what DC now at Washington.

539
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,440
Speaker 2: YEP for the Washington Husky is replacing Bill Belichick's son,

540
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:53,680
Speaker 2: Steve Belichick. That's right, it's right.

541
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:58,640
Speaker 1: Ryan Walter's good defensive coordinator. We believe so didn't quite

542
00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:01,240
Speaker 1: work out as a head coach, but glad to see

543
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 1: he landed on a seat Burriod to moving over from

544
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:07,840
Speaker 1: un l V. We've also got Jake Dickard coming all

545
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:10,400
Speaker 1: the way to the East Coast to take over at

546
00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 1: wake Forest. So Dave Claws and retired Jake Dickard previously

547
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,320
Speaker 1: at Wazoo. Besides, he wants to take over at wake Forest.

548
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,440
Speaker 1: And this was one that sort of happened in the

549
00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 1: last couple of months. But Troy Taylor fired by I

550
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 1: guess GM Andrew Luck. Seems as if Andrew Luck has

551
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 1: a lot of power within that Stanford program. He has

552
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:35,520
Speaker 1: turned the keys over temporarily on an interim basis to

553
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 1: Frank Reich.

554
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 2: His former head coach with the Colts. Yeah, former head

555
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:43,360
Speaker 2: coach of the Coats. Yeah. By the way, similar situation

556
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:46,800
Speaker 2: in cal Justin Wilcox now reporting to former NFL head

557
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:52,160
Speaker 2: coach just you know, tying together the NFL person at

558
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:55,440
Speaker 2: a Bay Area program reporting to Ron Rivera. Yes, that's right,

559
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:58,480
Speaker 2: justin Wilcox. That's their new power structure at both Stanford

560
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 2: and Cal and TBD across this great land.

561
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:08,440
Speaker 1: A few other notable coaching changes. Okay, Dan Mullen is back.

562
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 2: Yes.

563
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 1: When I write these little coaching blurbs up here on

564
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 1: my note sheet, I tend to put in parentheses where

565
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 1: the coach was at previously, so we have a full

566
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 1: chain of events here for Dan Mullen. I have previously

567
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:26,160
Speaker 1: with ESPN. Clearly, Dan Mullen has been other places as well,

568
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,440
Speaker 1: most recently Florida, but it's been with ESPN for a

569
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:31,800
Speaker 1: couple of years. He steps into that role at UNLV.

570
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 1: I think you and I are both fascinated by that.

571
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,480
Speaker 1: We've got a new coach at app State, Dal Loggins,

572
00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:45,760
Speaker 1: previously the offensive coordinator for South Carolina Sean Clark let

573
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 1: go now the offensive line coach down at UCF. But

574
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 1: that app State situation is going to be really interesting.

575
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,800
Speaker 1: There's a lot new, a lot new at app State

576
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:56,000
Speaker 1: that I've been reading about.

577
00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 2: Matt Ants.

578
00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 1: I mentioned Matt Ants earlier, but Matt Ant's previously a

579
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:05,400
Speaker 1: two time national champ at North Dakota State has been

580
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:10,479
Speaker 1: at USC helping coach up the defense he is stepping

581
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 1: in for. I guess Tim Skipper, who was an interim

582
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 1: for Jeff Hedford after Jeff Heedford retired before the start

583
00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 1: of last.

584
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:20,160
Speaker 2: Year, and who took matt ENS's job at USC. I

585
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:24,120
Speaker 2: believe Rob Ryan, Rob Ryan Baby, great head of hair,

586
00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:29,120
Speaker 2: great head of hair, notable Ryan brother and son at USC.

587
00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:32,160
Speaker 2: Also should mention, just in terms of the West Coast

588
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:37,240
Speaker 2: Ish coaching changes, who is Dan Mullen's probable first starting

589
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:42,200
Speaker 2: quarterback at UNLV Believe Alex Orgy, Alex Org Michigan or

590
00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:46,320
Speaker 2: Anthony Calandria or Anthony Calandra coming over from Virginia. We

591
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 2: will talk about that here in just a little bit

592
00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:51,280
Speaker 2: there a bunch of cook but you we're both a

593
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:53,320
Speaker 2: bunch of other coaching changes to talk about.

594
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 1: I'm not going to go through all of these. We're

595
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:58,120
Speaker 1: trying to keep this higher level. We will be getting

596
00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:01,440
Speaker 1: into all of these teams in a little bit more

597
00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 1: detail here over the next fifteen episodes.

598
00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:06,480
Speaker 2: Let me ask you this, of all of the new

599
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:09,560
Speaker 2: coaching changes, if you had to pick one of the

600
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:14,880
Speaker 2: new coaches to line up as a halfback and burst

601
00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:19,360
Speaker 2: through a line and run over a thousand people. Which

602
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:22,040
Speaker 2: of the new coaches would you choose in that scenario.

603
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 2: I'll go with the first overall pick in this draft,

604
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 2: and I'll take Eddie George. Yeah, you go next. And

605
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 2: I'm sure whoever you pick is going to do as

606
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:33,640
Speaker 2: good a job as Eddie George with that very specific task.

607
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:36,440
Speaker 1: I was gonna say Charles Houff, but probably not as good.

608
00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:40,760
Speaker 1: I'm gon Lady George still Gladdy George. Yeah, Charles Hoff

609
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 1: taking over at Southern Miss Tony Gibson taking over at

610
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 1: Marshall after Charles Hoff left Marshall. We've got Tim Albin

611
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 1: at Charlotte. He had a good run at Ohio but

612
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:51,160
Speaker 1: moved down to Charlotte.

613
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:53,400
Speaker 2: Charlotte's tough, Yeah.

614
00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 1: Fau Zach Kittley previously was with Texas Tech as an

615
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,120
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator. Has seen a nice rise through the ranks.

616
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:02,200
Speaker 1: But Zach le very tall man. He is very tall,

617
00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 1: going to be stepping in for the Owls as they

618
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:09,520
Speaker 1: are moving on from Tom Herman and Bronco. Manden Hall's

619
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:13,160
Speaker 1: back with Utah State was at I should say back

620
00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:16,080
Speaker 1: in the State of Utah. Yeah, Bronco Menden Hall was

621
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,320
Speaker 1: with New Mexico last season. It makes too much sense

622
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:22,479
Speaker 1: for Bronclemendon Hall and for Utah State, we had some

623
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:23,880
Speaker 1: big coordinator moves, didn't we.

624
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:28,560
Speaker 2: Yeah. Fascinating coordinating year, fascinating coordinating. Yeah, that works. That's English.

625
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 1: Four programs in particular that I think are really interesting.

626
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:35,280
Speaker 1: We're going to talk more about him. Ohio State with

627
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:38,360
Speaker 1: two new coordinators, same deal for Florida State, Oklahoma State,

628
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:41,479
Speaker 1: Nebraska got a bunch of other big names where it

629
00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 1: was just one or the other by Ohio State giving

630
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:48,880
Speaker 1: it to Brian Hartline and Matt Patricia offensive indece sure,

631
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:50,600
Speaker 1: that's choice.

632
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:54,520
Speaker 2: Brian Hartline long time, and I mean to say he's

633
00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:57,480
Speaker 2: the best receivers coach and recruiter in college football is

634
00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:00,920
Speaker 2: not a crazy thing to say, given where the receivers events.

635
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 2: So he finally with I'm sure Ryan Day's input is

636
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 2: the guy at coordinator.

637
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 1: The Matt Patricia hire is a little weird to me.

638
00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:11,759
Speaker 1: I don't know if I fully get that one, but

639
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,279
Speaker 1: they needed a guy after Jim Knowles decided to go

640
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:17,160
Speaker 1: to Penn State, and so it's gonna be Matt Patricia.

641
00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 2: It's Jim Knowles the highest paid coordinator ever in the sport.

642
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:24,399
Speaker 2: It is certainly this year, right this year, like three

643
00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:26,879
Speaker 2: million in that Ted Dance in money is what Jim

644
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:29,160
Speaker 2: Knowles is going to be making in and that can

645
00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:32,040
Speaker 2: go a good amount of distance in State College BA.

646
00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:38,400
Speaker 1: Florida State's bringing over Gus Melson. Yes, Gus Melson. He

647
00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:43,280
Speaker 1: is going to be tasked with rebooting that Florida State offense.

648
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:47,960
Speaker 1: I saw that Thomas Castellanos gave some comments to our

649
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:50,200
Speaker 1: friend Pete Nacos from over at on three that he

650
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:53,160
Speaker 1: just doesn't think that Alabama has what it takes to

651
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:56,399
Speaker 1: stop him. I saw that got some fighting words coming

652
00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:57,080
Speaker 1: out of Tallaha.

653
00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:00,520
Speaker 2: It was something, yeah, something like can't hide hid Nick

654
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:02,759
Speaker 2: Saban anymore, can't hide behind Nick.

655
00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,160
Speaker 1: We'll see what Malzon can do with him. He's not

656
00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:11,160
Speaker 1: not a Malason style quarterback, but uh, that might be

657
00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:12,239
Speaker 1: a bridge too far from me.

658
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,120
Speaker 2: By the way, I like the defensive coordinator too. Tony

659
00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:18,400
Speaker 2: White is three three five Yeah, Rocky Longtree.

660
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:23,359
Speaker 1: Tony White coming over from Nebraska mm hmm Oklahoma State Dan.

661
00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:28,520
Speaker 1: So they re up with Mike Gundy. We had a

662
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:31,920
Speaker 1: bit of a Rigamar role before he eventually signed a contract,

663
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:35,360
Speaker 1: took pay cut stay there. He is bringing two new coordinators,

664
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:39,799
Speaker 1: Doug Meachum. Doug Meacham was the interior wide receiver coach

665
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:41,960
Speaker 1: for TCU. It's been there since twenty twenty.

666
00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:44,520
Speaker 2: When did we not talk about the slot situation at

667
00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:47,320
Speaker 2: TCU last year? I mean, it's all anybody talking notable

668
00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 2: and on the defensive side it's Todd Grantham. Baby, great, cool, God.

669
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,239
Speaker 2: I wonder how this story is gonna end. I'm on

670
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 2: the edge of my seat. Who's to say? Continue over?

671
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:06,680
Speaker 1: At Nebraska, they're sticking with Hulgo on offense. Daniel Holgerson,

672
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:10,279
Speaker 1: he got got his feet wet a little bit last year, coach.

673
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:12,160
Speaker 2: I think this is super smart. I think this is

674
00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:14,200
Speaker 2: a great move from Nebraska. I don't think they have

675
00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:17,040
Speaker 2: the talent yet to match up with different places Holgo

676
00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:19,880
Speaker 2: has been. That's not a take at all, but in

677
00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:24,560
Speaker 2: terms of rethinking your identity on offense, Nebraska needed it,

678
00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:27,759
Speaker 2: and so starting out with the talent they have a quarterback.

679
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:30,920
Speaker 2: This instantly makes Nebraska more watchable to me.

680
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I like what Nebraska did on defense too, honestly.

681
00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:36,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, kept things going.

682
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:39,759
Speaker 1: Promoted John Butler from secondary coach. I don't hate this

683
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:42,960
Speaker 1: John Butler, I think a Philly guy.

684
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:46,560
Speaker 2: And what Jim Knowles too? Right? Yeah, yeah, Okay, all

685
00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:48,360
Speaker 2: comes back to pa.

686
00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:52,279
Speaker 1: Of these offensive coordinator hires, which one is of most

687
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:56,920
Speaker 1: interest to you? Ben R. Buckle at Oklahoma coming down

688
00:36:56,960 --> 00:37:02,280
Speaker 1: from Wazoo along with John Mattier, Ryan I guess joining

689
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 1: forces again with Caitlin de Borr Okay, Jason Beck stepping

690
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:13,400
Speaker 1: in as offensive coordinator for Utah and Jeff Grimes previously

691
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:16,720
Speaker 1: was the offensive coordinator at Kansas as well as Baylor

692
00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:19,000
Speaker 1: and BYU, but he is now up at Wisconsin taking

693
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 1: over for long ago.

694
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:24,279
Speaker 2: Uh. Probably our Buckle because of who he's paired with,

695
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:27,759
Speaker 2: the familiarity has with John Mattier also coming in, and

696
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:34,800
Speaker 2: familiarity and the desperation for consistent, interesting, fun productive offense

697
00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:39,200
Speaker 2: in Norman. I'm intrigued by Ryan Grubb, but I don't

698
00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:41,840
Speaker 2: really have a handle yet, as nobody does on what

699
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:44,000
Speaker 2: the quarterback situation is going to be. We know the

700
00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:46,319
Speaker 2: certain pieces in on Alabama's offense are going to be

701
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,240
Speaker 2: quite strong, you know, having a starting point of Ryan Grubb,

702
00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:52,560
Speaker 2: whoever that quarterback is going to be, and Ryan Williams. Great,

703
00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:57,560
Speaker 2: But yeah, I think from a pure narrative situation, Oklahoma

704
00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:01,000
Speaker 2: swinging both with the transfers on offense and with our buckle,

705
00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:02,200
Speaker 2: I think is the most intriguing.

706
00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, and this is a make or break yere on

707
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:07,279
Speaker 1: some level for totally Brent Vanna Bols he had to

708
00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:09,279
Speaker 1: take a swing. He is taking a pretty big swing.

709
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:11,320
Speaker 1: They are doing whatever they can to try and reboot

710
00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:14,279
Speaker 1: this offense. And look, I think it's smart if're gonna

711
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:16,280
Speaker 1: go out and get John Matier, get his offensive coordinator

712
00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:16,680
Speaker 1: as well.

713
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:19,680
Speaker 2: Yeah. If I purely just said I'm going to tell

714
00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:22,160
Speaker 2: you right now, I'm back from the future and Oklahoma

715
00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:24,880
Speaker 2: has a really good offense in twenty twenty five, you're like, oh, okay,

716
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:26,200
Speaker 2: they're in the playoffs. Great.

717
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:29,880
Speaker 1: On the defensive side, of course, there are more moves

718
00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:32,319
Speaker 1: than the ones we're listing here, but some of the

719
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:35,920
Speaker 1: higher profile ones. Tom Allen left Penn State went down

720
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:39,440
Speaker 1: to Clemson. Penn State filled that with Jim Knowles, who

721
00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:40,760
Speaker 1: you mentioned earlier, getting paid.

722
00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:41,280
Speaker 2: A ton of money.

723
00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:45,640
Speaker 1: A PA guy talked about how he wanted to play

724
00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:47,680
Speaker 1: at Penn State, wasn't good enough to play at Penn State,

725
00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:49,719
Speaker 1: but now he's getting his shot to be involved at

726
00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:51,400
Speaker 1: the Penn State football program. He's excited.

727
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:53,439
Speaker 2: He's like looking in a mirror for you, PA, guy

728
00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:58,000
Speaker 2: making a ton of money. Ye, Penn State. It's all there.

729
00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:00,359
Speaker 1: He's makking more money than me. But fair point. Uh,

730
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:04,920
Speaker 1: Miami bringing down Corey Heatherman from Minnesota. This is a

731
00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:07,600
Speaker 1: big move. This is a really big move. Miami needs

732
00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:10,200
Speaker 1: to get better on defense. Maybe he can be the

733
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 1: guy and Notre Dame bringing in Chris Ash.

734
00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:19,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, sometime Texas, Ohio State some NFL time. Rutgers.

735
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,920
Speaker 1: Very strong hairline, maybe the strongest hairline we've seen as

736
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:27,040
Speaker 1: a Notre Dame defensive coordinator since Bob Diaco. That's a

737
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 1: tough one to match, though, you know, I don't say

738
00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:29,200
Speaker 1: that lightly.

739
00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:31,680
Speaker 2: I know you do. That's hallowed ground.

740
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,760
Speaker 1: I hope the defense is as stout as that hairline.

741
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:39,520
Speaker 1: But I remain unconvinced. I am not super excited about

742
00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:42,200
Speaker 1: this higher. But his starting point is great in terms

743
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,520
Speaker 1: of the talent on hand, Yes, the starting point is great.

744
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:47,560
Speaker 1: Mike Mickens is still there, my guy on on the

745
00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:50,640
Speaker 1: defensive coaching staff as well, who's been recruiting Marcus Freeman

746
00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:53,359
Speaker 1: still there, Marcus Freeman is still there, So there are

747
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:55,360
Speaker 1: good pieces in place. Notre Dame has a ton of

748
00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:58,800
Speaker 1: steam on them coming into the twenty twenty five season.

749
00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:02,600
Speaker 1: I think the outside of the Jim Knowles move for me,

750
00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:07,200
Speaker 1: which obviously I'm very interested in giving my allegiances. Yeah,

751
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:10,040
Speaker 1: the Corey Heatherman move to me is really interesting at

752
00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:13,799
Speaker 1: Miami because definitely I liked him at Minnesota and we

753
00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:16,560
Speaker 1: just know how big of a glaring weakness that Miami

754
00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:20,319
Speaker 1: defense was down the stretch. So they need a lot

755
00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:23,600
Speaker 1: of This season frankly, will be determined by whether or

756
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:25,800
Speaker 1: not Heatherman and the defense can step up in a

757
00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:28,560
Speaker 1: really meaningful way and prevent against some of what we

758
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:30,240
Speaker 1: saw last year down the stretch for the Canes.

759
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:32,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, and a lot of it seems to be And

760
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:34,359
Speaker 2: we talked to Many Navarro about this a few weeks

761
00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:36,120
Speaker 2: ago when we did our Miami episode. Go check it

762
00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:37,920
Speaker 2: out if you haven't yet and you're interested in Miami.

763
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 2: It's alignment, it's tackling, it's instilling confidence in the defense

764
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:45,040
Speaker 2: that they know the scheme, they know how to react

765
00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 2: to what they see, and a lot of that is

766
00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:50,480
Speaker 2: happening off season. It's happening in classrooms. It's a teaching thing,

767
00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:53,040
Speaker 2: and there's a lot it seems like there's a lot

768
00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:55,640
Speaker 2: of faith in Corey Heatherman to be that teacher to

769
00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 2: get Miami to consistently competent.

770
00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:01,160
Speaker 1: Let's go through some of the notable transfers that jump

771
00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:04,440
Speaker 1: out to you. Oh my god, this is parts two

772
00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:07,200
Speaker 1: and three of this episode. We're not gonna list them

773
00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:10,759
Speaker 1: all off. There were over a thousand, no, but this

774
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:15,640
Speaker 1: is a catch up time. Yeah, student athletes in the portal. Clearly, Clearly,

775
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:17,719
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks are going to suck up most of the

776
00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:20,480
Speaker 1: oxygen in this room. It's just the way it works.

777
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:25,239
Speaker 1: We've already referenced some of these guys, and who knows

778
00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:26,719
Speaker 1: what kind of impact they're going to have in their

779
00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:31,000
Speaker 1: new situation. Maliava, we talked about him going to UCLA.

780
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:34,839
Speaker 1: Carson Beck from Georgia to Miami. Carson Beck briefly, I think,

781
00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:38,480
Speaker 1: declared for the NFL, decided Okay, maybe not, let's go

782
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:40,920
Speaker 1: to Miami instead. He's gonna end up at Miami. Joh

783
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:44,640
Speaker 1: Matier going from Wazoo to Oklahoma. I think that's the

784
00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:49,080
Speaker 1: name that most people have been fixated on as potentially

785
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:52,919
Speaker 1: the biggest impact player on a new program, Nico being

786
00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:54,960
Speaker 1: what he is, Carson Beck being what he is, a

787
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:58,400
Speaker 1: bunch of these other guys being what they are. John Matier, though,

788
00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:00,880
Speaker 1: steps into a situation where he can really influenced that

789
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:03,000
Speaker 1: offense in a big way, So I'm excited to see

790
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:06,799
Speaker 1: what he looks like in Crimson. Fernando Mendoz I mentioned him.

791
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:08,520
Speaker 1: I'm crazy about Fernando Mendoza.

792
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,920
Speaker 2: He's gott an NFL buzz already as one of the

793
00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:15,439
Speaker 2: top qbs potentially to watch as a first round type

794
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:17,000
Speaker 2: quarterback in twenty twenty six.

795
00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:20,279
Speaker 1: He is better than Curtis Rourke and he is now

796
00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:25,560
Speaker 1: playing for Kurt Signetti in Bloomington for Indiana. He is

797
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,480
Speaker 1: a name that I'm very very interested in watching out there.

798
00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:30,239
Speaker 2: And by the way, Mendoza will talk about this on

799
00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:32,840
Speaker 2: the Big Ten episodes. But like he won't need to

800
00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:35,200
Speaker 2: run an offense that needs to do anything because of

801
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:37,440
Speaker 2: a faulty defense like the last couple of years O

802
00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:40,239
Speaker 2: cal No their offense had to do. He needs to

803
00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:42,759
Speaker 2: be pretty good and Indiana will be good.

804
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:45,520
Speaker 1: Uh. Miller Moss left USC is going to be playing

805
00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:46,160
Speaker 1: at Louisville.

806
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:47,480
Speaker 2: I mentioned.

807
00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:50,520
Speaker 1: Bo Pribulah going to be at Missoo leaving Penn State,

808
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:54,040
Speaker 1: Jackson Arnold leaving Oklahoma going to Auburn. That's a really

809
00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:58,279
Speaker 1: cool situation. Bicy Caden Salter, remember him from Liberty going

810
00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:02,680
Speaker 1: to Colorado. Thomas Castellanos who I mentioned before, going to

811
00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:04,520
Speaker 1: Florida State, obviously at Florida State.

812
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 2: Six foot ten, ten stories high if he's a foot yeah,

813
00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:12,040
Speaker 2: Ty may have overshot his height by a solid foot

814
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:12,640
Speaker 2: last year.

815
00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:14,680
Speaker 1: Solid It was at least a fIF wasn't it.

816
00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:16,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was bad. Yeah, that's okay.

817
00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:20,799
Speaker 1: Matt Sluca is going to JMU to play with his

818
00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:25,279
Speaker 1: former coach Bob Chesney. Geo Lopez is going to be

819
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:29,520
Speaker 1: playing quarterback for Bill Belichick at North Carolina. He comes

820
00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:31,799
Speaker 1: over from South Alabama.

821
00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:32,560
Speaker 2: Or at least competing for that job.

822
00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:33,480
Speaker 1: Competing for that job.

823
00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:35,120
Speaker 2: Seems like it's an open job at the moment.

824
00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:39,040
Speaker 1: Yeah. Steve Angelli, I don't know if the ACC is

825
00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:43,680
Speaker 1: ready for Angelly going to be presumably the starting quarterback

826
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:44,480
Speaker 1: at Syracuse.

827
00:43:44,880 --> 00:43:47,719
Speaker 2: That was a post spring transfer too. That was a

828
00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:51,200
Speaker 2: Syracuse looked at other transfers, saw what they had during

829
00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:52,480
Speaker 2: spring football.

830
00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:57,640
Speaker 1: And said the search continue. Yeah, two other ones real quick.

831
00:43:57,800 --> 00:43:59,920
Speaker 1: I mean we mentioned inn Anthony Calandry and Aloe Orgia.

832
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:02,480
Speaker 1: I think that's just a point of personal interest for

833
00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:06,600
Speaker 1: you and I Darian Mensa got money. He got some

834
00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:10,120
Speaker 1: real money to go from too Lane to Duke. And

835
00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:13,840
Speaker 1: I'm real curious to see what Mark Gronowski looks like

836
00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:16,960
Speaker 1: at Iowa comes over from South Dakota State. South Dakota

837
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:20,919
Speaker 1: State obviously a bit of an FCS powerhouse. We did

838
00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:25,640
Speaker 1: talk recently Scott doctor Man about other subjects, but he

839
00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:27,600
Speaker 1: mentioned who knows what I was going to look like

840
00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:29,359
Speaker 1: if Mark Gronowski is.

841
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:32,439
Speaker 2: Any good true, So we'll see. Can't wait.

842
00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:35,040
Speaker 1: There are a bunch of other ones here. I can't

843
00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:37,359
Speaker 1: list them all off. People's eyes again will glaze over,

844
00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:39,520
Speaker 1: their ears will glaze over. But of the other names

845
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:42,080
Speaker 1: here that we've got listed on our sheet, running backs,

846
00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:46,359
Speaker 1: wide receivers, we've got some defense on here. Of these

847
00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:48,840
Speaker 1: other names, which do you think are of most interest

848
00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:49,359
Speaker 1: to you?

849
00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:54,680
Speaker 2: So the receiver transfers are super fascinating. Eric Singleton gives

850
00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:57,839
Speaker 2: Auburn pop alongside cam Coleman, so that becomes one of

851
00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:01,200
Speaker 2: the best duos in the secty at receiver, if not

852
00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:02,879
Speaker 2: one of the best duos in the country of both

853
00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:06,560
Speaker 2: of those guys ascend to where they should. What LSU

854
00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:08,759
Speaker 2: did in the portal with Nick Anderson coming over from

855
00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:12,080
Speaker 2: Oh You Been hurt a bunch. But if you remember,

856
00:45:12,120 --> 00:45:14,680
Speaker 2: he was the one who caught that game winning touchdown

857
00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:16,759
Speaker 2: pass from Dylan Gabriel a couple of years ago and

858
00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:18,799
Speaker 2: against Texas in the corner of the end zone. So

859
00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:22,280
Speaker 2: a lot of physical ability there. And Barrion Brown popped

860
00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:27,919
Speaker 2: obviously at times at Kentucky at running back. I don't

861
00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:30,560
Speaker 2: know if you've seen pictures of Makay Hughes at Oregon,

862
00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 2: but I'll tie this into a newer movie. I believe

863
00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:38,360
Speaker 2: it's the thing from Fantastic Four that's just a giant

864
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:42,160
Speaker 2: man of rock. That's what Mkai Hughes looks like and

865
00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:45,360
Speaker 2: will look like in the Oregon backfield. He looks absolutely yoked.

866
00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:47,600
Speaker 2: Cannot wait to see what he does. I think good

867
00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:49,400
Speaker 2: reason given what he did at Tulane that he was

868
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:54,640
Speaker 2: number one back in the portal this set, this session,

869
00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:58,080
Speaker 2: this season. You know, I'll stick with Oregon here just

870
00:45:58,080 --> 00:45:59,799
Speaker 2: for a second. But Dylan Thieneman, I think is going

871
00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:02,400
Speaker 2: to or the Oregon secondary that's a new look secondary

872
00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:06,719
Speaker 2: via the portal somewhat. And also Patrick Payton stick with

873
00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:10,440
Speaker 2: LSU just because they were so active and possibly the

874
00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:12,799
Speaker 2: team that is looking to change things more than any

875
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:15,480
Speaker 2: other team in the SEC via the portal with Patrick

876
00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:18,680
Speaker 2: Payton along that defensive line, that's super interesting to me.

877
00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:23,120
Speaker 2: And then just overall portal wise, not one specific player

878
00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:26,680
Speaker 2: per se, but Texas Tech via I'm gonna call him

879
00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:31,920
Speaker 2: go T Campbell is that okay? Sure, spending and spending

880
00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:34,040
Speaker 2: and spending and spending some more on the portal, which,

881
00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:35,719
Speaker 2: by the way, good for them. You love a proactive

882
00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:38,640
Speaker 2: team trying to do everything it can to improve, and

883
00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:41,239
Speaker 2: Texas Tech just obviously has to be one of the

884
00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:43,560
Speaker 2: two or three stories this portal season.

885
00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:46,960
Speaker 1: I agree. I completely agree. I'm really excited to see

886
00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:50,719
Speaker 1: your guy, Dylan Thieneman. Yes, some other new names just

887
00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:55,399
Speaker 1: to mention, just throw out there. Bryce Underwood mentioned top

888
00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:58,279
Speaker 1: of the show, but Bryce, uge quarterback recruit, big time

889
00:46:58,360 --> 00:47:01,920
Speaker 1: quarterback recruit from Michigan flipped from LSU. I think it

890
00:47:02,239 --> 00:47:04,560
Speaker 1: at least in part was because of Nil. That might

891
00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:07,319
Speaker 1: not have been the sole reason, but he's from Detroit six'

892
00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:09,960
Speaker 1: four to, two a eight he seemingly is stepping in

893
00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:12,399
Speaker 1: right away to be the starting quarterback For. Michigan has

894
00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:14,120
Speaker 1: to be better than what they had last. Season just

895
00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:17,040
Speaker 1: has to be. GREAT i was reading a little bit

896

Speaker 1: a big, receiver but a burner and definitely has type

900
00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:29,719
Speaker 1: of game breaking ability that you won out.

901
00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:34,160
Speaker 2: Wide should be, huge especially given you Know oregans receiving

902
00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:37,839
Speaker 2: that they're pretty deep with interesting, guys but they might

903
00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:40,360
Speaker 2: be looking for a number one guy With Evan stewart's

904
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:42,839
