Here's 96 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 5: what he had to say about the situation, explaining it. 97 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 8: Listen to what happened to Cal's linebacker Luke Farrelli. So 98 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,039 Speaker 8: he was the acc defensive Rookie of the Year this 99 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:32,039 Speaker 8: past season. With that accolade being at Cal, he's obviously 100 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 8: going to hit the portal, right, go to a bigger school, 101 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 8: maybe sign a big on IL. So that's what he 102 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 8: does and sides with Clemson. 103 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 1: Over a week ago. He's all set. 104 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 8: He's on campus attending classes, team meetings and workouts the 105 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 8: past week. Now he's getting high six figures in this 106 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 8: nil deal from Clemson, but given his potential, other schools 107 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:49,160 Speaker 8: still wanted to sign him. 108 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 3: For more money. 109 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 8: Mike ole Miss Ole Miss actually offered him a supposed 110 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 8: million dollar deal after he was already on Clemson's campus, 111 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 8: that's tampering. So Farelli reported it to Clemson, showing them proof. 112 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 8: Attacks Clemson, who's thinking this is BS, confronts ole MISSUS 113 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 8: head coach Pete Golding about it, and instead of Golding 114 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 8: playing dumb er backing off the situation. 115 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 3: No, he does. 116 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 8: The doubles is offered to Farrelli sees that huge number 117 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 8: and he's like, dude, how do I not take that? 118 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,600 Speaker 8: So he goes Clemson staff and officially announces he's re 119 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,159 Speaker 8: entering the portal to flip his commitment to ole miss 120 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 8: The debate here, obviously, is Farelli never actually signed an 121 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 8: agreement with the football program, just paperwork with his school scholarship, 122 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 8: which doesn't tie him in. But like when you enroll 123 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 8: in school, you should be no longer able to enter 124 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 8: the portal. Right, it's a lawless land out there, and 125 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 8: it's amazing how college ball has turned into one giant 126 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 8: auction house. 127 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,919 Speaker 5: So so basically what I take from this, this audio 128 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 5: and the research that I did, he signed the enrollment 129 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 5: papers to be a part of Clemson. Enroll, got in 130 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 5: the class, got in the school. You know, data, da 131 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 5: da da. But what he didn't do was sign the 132 00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:01,600 Speaker 5: nial deal right, like with the collectives. The contract that 133 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:04,599 Speaker 5: that states this is how much you're gonna makese blab 134 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:06,840 Speaker 5: like what we were talking about or what they were 135 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 5: talking about in terms of his compensation of going to 136 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 5: the school. I got to tell y'all, I'm curious to 137 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 5: hear how y'all feel about it, But that to me 138 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 5: signifies if you don't have a rule that can stop that, 139 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 5: which is, I don't know how many players, I don't 140 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 5: know how many players are going to be in this 141 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 5: type of setup, in this position, but this is not 142 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 5: good at all, Like this is now where you start 143 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 5: to say, this thing could possibly go off of the 144 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 5: rails and get crazy ugly because there's no I mean, 145 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 5: what are the parameters stopping things like this from happening? 146 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 5: While I always tend decide with the player more often 147 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 5: than not, this. 148 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 6: There's no loyalty, That's all I would say real quick, 149 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 6: like there's no loyalty. Like me having a coaching background 150 00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 6: and youth sports and high school sports and grassrooms sports, 151 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 6: I don't want to get back into it because of 152 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 6: these same reasons where there's no lawsy even with kids 153 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 6: at the grassroots level. So I feel like as a coach, 154 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 6: Why would you even want to do this anymore? If 155 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 6: you're up in age, if you're over fifty five sixty 156 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 6: years old, why do you want this stress? I would 157 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 6: do the Nick Sabing route and just go on TV 158 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 6: and talk ball once a weekend and get the bag. 159 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 6: Like there's no reason to put up with this stress. 160 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 6: There's no lawty man. It seems like this story is 161 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 6: like one of the craziest ones I've ever seen. Like 162 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 6: even the kid know that he's doing the school dirty, 163 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 6: but be like, man, I cannot pass up that bag. 164 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, reported it exact. 165 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 2: I mean it already has went off the rails with 166 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 2: this whole NFL Portal you know program, because we were 167 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,839 Speaker 2: in favor of it for the kids, because you know, 168 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 2: we want to see them, you know, being able to 169 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,319 Speaker 2: go out and you know, make money and do all 170 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 2: of these things, so that we were fighting for for 171 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 2: two decades now and now it is already off the risk. 172 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 2: I mean you look at everything that's going on in 173 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 2: the college landscape. Uh uh Georgia suing demand is kid 174 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 2: demand Wilson for three hundred that they want to Darrin 175 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 2: Min said that they got the quarterback from Duke the 176 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 2: judges off put out a temporary restraining order so he 177 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 2: couldn't transfer, and Josh Josh, who was being sued for 178 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,719 Speaker 2: like one point nine million knowledge, is like, what the 179 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 2: hell is going on? So I think that what's going 180 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 2: to happen. There's going to have to be some structure 181 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:43,680 Speaker 2: put in place. Uh, the when it comes to these 182 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:50,080 Speaker 2: nil contracts, because one college coach told me he was like, man, listen, 183 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 2: once we once we get the kid the money, like 184 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 2: we can't unwire the money, we can't get it back 185 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,679 Speaker 2: and so on. These kids get paid, they're looking at 186 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 2: the next situations like, yo, I'm trying to get me 187 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 2: another three four hundred thousand. 188 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 3: And that's what these kids are doing. It's unfortunate. 189 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,679 Speaker 2: Like Cuff said, there's no more loyalty man, when we 190 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 2: were kids growing up, man, like you wanted to go 191 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 2: to the school because it was your favorite place when 192 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 2: you was growing up. Competing now it's just that they 193 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 2: just jumping ship to ship, securing secure in the bag 194 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 2: and there's nothing for these kids to this. Listen, everybody's 195 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 2: not going to the league. Everybody's not going to the 196 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 2: next level. So their mindset and it should be to 197 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,840 Speaker 2: require as much as I possibly can now because I'm 198 00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 2: not going to the NFL and you can't fault them 199 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 2: because that's where the system is now. But everything I 200 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 2: think that's going on, I think there's going to be 201 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 2: some rules and regulations put on this thing because if 202 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,440 Speaker 2: it doesn't happen, I mean, I don't know what's going 203 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 2: to happen because we can't even see the bottom of it. 204 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 6: Or I got it, I got the idea, man, Come on, 205 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:11,679 Speaker 6: what you got? They need to come up with a 206 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 6: family man football league for those guys that are not 207 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,840 Speaker 6: really good enough to go to the NFL. But these 208 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 6: guys are trying to hang on for six seven years 209 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:22,560 Speaker 6: and just stretching their eligibility. 210 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 3: Sweet and crazy. 211 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 5: Disgusted, that's not crazy because man, is it the kid 212 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 5: that's going to Miami getting like six six year granted 213 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 5: to man? 214 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:35,439 Speaker 2: A guy for mind blest y'all believe his name was 215 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 2: Camic corn Man. It was his nine year in college 216 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 2: football year. 217 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 5: Come on, man, yeah, what is that's That's something that's unbelievable. 218 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 5: And meanwhile, you have kids out here that would have 219 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 5: gotten scholarships to some pretty pretty nice universities and they're 220 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 5: not getting them, you know, like like the kids that 221 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:59,680 Speaker 5: were like maybe second tier, third tier kids that were 222 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:05,680 Speaker 5: getting scholarships to you know, FBS schools, you know, lower 223 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:10,439 Speaker 5: level schools that aren't power for schools are that it's 224 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 5: being replaced by three stars, it's being replaced by two 225 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 5: star you know players out of high school. It's actually 226 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 5: being replaced by guys that are at major power for 227 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 5: schools that are entering the transfer portal and aren't getting 228 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 5: picked up by power for schools. 229 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:30,199 Speaker 3: And the trickle. 230 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 5: Down effect of what this has had on sports as 231 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,719 Speaker 5: a whole, in recruitment, on kids opportunities to go to 232 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 5: college has been I mean, it's been very critical. Man, 233 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 5: It's been very turbulent, and it's been very bad. It's 234 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 5: not been good for sports.

Going? 382 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 2: Into the trade line with them being injured, and you know, 383 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:24,119 Speaker 2: everybody speculating that job's not no longer want to be 384 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 2: a man because we don't know what's going to happen 385 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 2: when Janni's you got cat called, Anthony Towns, Jaron Jackson, 386 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 2: you got up and uh Jonathan kaminga. So what's going 387 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 2: on with all these trades man in the NBA? 388 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:43,199 Speaker 6: Man, I think that domino is Janni's. He's the main domino. 389 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:44,879 Speaker 6: A lot of trades, a lot of a lot of 390 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:48,160 Speaker 6: situations have been stopped right now because Joanna's injury. It's 391 00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 6: so unfortunate, right, Like we see Anthony Davis as well, 392 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:54,160 Speaker 6: even though I'm hearing a lot of rumblin's right now 393 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,160 Speaker 6: that a lot of teams in the Eastern Conference, even 394 00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 6: in New York Knicks looking at a d But then 395 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:02,679 Speaker 6: we Seejimmy Butler too, Right, Jimmy Butler went down with 396 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 6: the acl at with age thirty six. I want to say, 397 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:08,639 Speaker 6: this is like the second oldest player to ever suffer 398 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,879 Speaker 6: that aco injury. So it's going to be a tough 399 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 6: comeback and climb for Jimmy. So I would say if 400 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,920 Speaker 6: you look at Yanni's right in Milwaukee, and you look 401 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 6: at Steph in Golden State. They're in the same boat. 402 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:29,920 Speaker 6: They're in the same situation where they have one well, 403 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:33,919 Speaker 6: Jannis only has one ring, Steph has four. But I 404 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 6: feel like they're in the same boat because their organizations 405 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 6: have become so complacent with putting the infrastructure around them 406 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 6: to get more titles. Like they're both in a stagnant 407 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 6: situation where the team keeps putting up the facade that 408 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 6: they're making moves to try to keep these guys happy. 409 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 6: But Jannis is not happy. Man. Look at his press conferences, 410 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 6: even last night after he gets hurt. He is disgusted 411 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 6: with being in a Walkee already told y'all it's nothing 412 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,400 Speaker 6: up there but Coolver's Burgers. Man, there's nothing up there. 413 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 6: There's nothing. Giannis wants to be a Laker. It's the 414 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 6: worst kept secret in basketball right now. 415 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,680 Speaker 3: Huh y cannot cannot happen. 416 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:20,159 Speaker 5: It's getting it's giving Lebron and you know, maybe I 417 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 5: don't know what how much is that? 418 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 3: How much do you give up? 419 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,920 Speaker 5: I mean because it sounds like, you know, the Lakers 420 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:30,479 Speaker 5: would be okay with with dealing Lebron would like cannot 421 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 5: possibly take place. 422 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 6: I don't think we're going to see Lebron get traded, 423 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:40,159 Speaker 6: even though I will say, wave the no trade, Bron, 424 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 6: wave the no trade. 425 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 5: That's that's probably what's holding it all up right, is 426 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:45,880 Speaker 5: that they can he does. 427 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 6: No trade claws, so they can't just trade him in 428 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 6: the middle of the night like they did Anthony Davis. 429 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 6: They can't just do that. So he does have leverage 430 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 6: on that standpoint. But we are seeing rumors that Rich 431 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 6: Paul and Lebron are you know, meeting up with Jeannie 432 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 6: Busts to clear the air. That's what the reports are saying, 433 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 6: to clear the air. It's been a lot of little 434 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 6: jabs in the media. We know both of these sides. 435 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:11,119 Speaker 6: Jennie Buss has been playing in the media's She's a 436 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 6: well seasoned vet in the media, being the Lakers owner 437 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 6: for what almost thirty forty years, getting it passed down 438 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 6: from her dad, Lebron and podcast Rich Paul Podcast Paul, 439 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:25,160 Speaker 6: like they these guys are seized in the media game. 440 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 6: So what we're basically seeing, make a long story short, 441 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 6: we're seeing a breakup. We're seeing it not a divorce, 442 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 6: because they've had good times. Regardless of what you feel 443 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 6: about the championship. In the bubble. Lebron came to the 444 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 6: Lakers and won a championship within two years, So all the. 445 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 3: Laker was in the bubble cuffs.

They 451 00:23:56,520 --> 00:24:00,239 Speaker 6: never wanted Lebron because they are Kobe Bryant fans. Then 452 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,520 Speaker 6: that's that's commendable. That's a Laker. He was drafted by 453 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 6: the Lakers. 454 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 2: Hold on, hold on, Cops, Cops, hold on, hold on, cops, 455 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 2: hold on. 456 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:10,440 Speaker 3: Hit it. 457 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 1: Break for Fox Sports. 458 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:20,400 Speaker 10: NFL Media is just reporting that the Pittsburgh Steelers are 459 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 10: working towards a deal to hire Mike McCarthy as their 460 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:25,679 Speaker 10: new head coach. 461 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 5: Interesting plex plex plex first, first, BLUs first, book, first, 462 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 5: go at it. 463 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:38,639 Speaker 2: Uh, it's been you know, been talking about for the 464 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 2: last week, and uh, you know, I I'm kind of 465 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:46,719 Speaker 2: surprised at the highway Mike McCarthy, you know, especially with 466 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:50,480 Speaker 2: the you know, the coach and the foundation that obviously 467 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:55,199 Speaker 2: the Rooneys and they have uh you know, cemented with 468 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:57,479 Speaker 2: this organization over the last forty years. 469 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 3: But I I don't think it's the right.

He does have that 491 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:09,359 Speaker 6: championship with the Packers, but that was so long ago, man, 492 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 6: And I just don't want to see these retread guys, 493 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 6: these retricked coaches just keep doing the same hiring process. 494 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 1: Let's get some new guys in here. 495 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:20,720 Speaker 6: Man, get Brian Floyd as another chance. 496 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:24,160 Speaker 3: I would want to retread. How you gonna go out 497 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 3: both sides of your. 498 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,440 Speaker 6: He didn't get a fair shake in Miami. Man, he 499 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 6: had two at his quarterback bro Like. 500 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:36,920 Speaker 5: No, I'm gonna say, I'm gonna say that. I'm gonna 501 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 5: say this. I always defer when a guy has played 502 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:45,119 Speaker 5: for the team. I always like to defer to them. 503 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:50,880 Speaker 5: But I gotta say, Mike is from Homestead, Man, He's 504 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:54,960 Speaker 5: he's a He's a Pittsburgh dude. He's a Pittsburgh cat. 505 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 5: He's a born and bred. He's a yintzer. He's one 506 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 5: of us. I know, he is a He has been 507 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 5: a very very successful coach at the pro level. 508 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 3: In fact, I don't think they should have got rid 509 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 3: of him. 510 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:15,720 Speaker 2: And very successful. Yeah, he's got super very successful. 511 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:19,359 Speaker 5: He's got super Bowl I mean, and he developed Aaron Rodgers. 512 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:21,400 Speaker 3: I mean, I'd say he's responsible. 513 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 5: For Rogers, Aaron Rodgers, I'd say he's himself, he was 514 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 5: on the coaching staff, and that he would. 515 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:32,680 Speaker 2: Have did the same damn thing anywhere else. 516 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:39,120 Speaker 5: If if Aaron Rodgers was brought in on Mike McCarthy's 517 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:42,439 Speaker 5: watch and he gets credit for being the coach of 518 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:46,320 Speaker 5: one of the greatest quarterbacks for the history of the game, 519 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 5: you can't take it away from him like that. I 520 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 5: could say that Elijah was going to be a dope 521 00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 5: receiver no matter who his daddy was, But daddy gets Daddy. 522 00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 3: Gets credit, his daddy gets credit for. 523 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 5: Him being the type of I mean, maybe he could 524 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 5: his mom could get out. 525 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 3: I don't know, maybe mom, it could be debate. I 526 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:10,199 Speaker 3: don't know. I don't know that. 527 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 5: I do not know that it's mediocre because Mike McCarthy 528 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:20,880 Speaker 5: knows how to develop quarterbacks and he knows offense, and and. 529 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:24,040 Speaker 2: We have he make it to the playoffs when he 530 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,439 Speaker 2: was the head coach as the Dallas Calbuys LeVar. 531 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:29,640 Speaker 3: I mean with with. 532 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 2: Dak Prescott, if he if he uh. 533 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 5: He didn't develop Dak Prescott though, like he gotta post 534 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 5: Dak Dak Prescott, like I think Dak Prescott, Yeah, he 535 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 5: got a post post drafted that pre season of his career. 536 00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 3: This year he had a really good year. 537 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 5: But I think because you have situations where a guy 538 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 5: like Mike McCarthy is going to bang heads with Jerry 539 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 5: Jones more than than a Brian Brian Schottenheimer. I really 540 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 5: believe that for one reason or another shot he was 541 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 5: able to have good results with with his offense, but 542 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 5: he didn't have good results as a team. 543 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 3: Like what what team have you? 544 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 7: Well? 545 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 3: Were you watching all year? The Dallas Cowboys were not 546 00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 3: a good team. 547 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 2: Results that they have on offense that was so outlandishly great? 548 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 5: What are you talking about the Dallas Cowboys? Yes, yeah, 549 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 5: I mean I thought Doc Prescoe he was having he 550 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 5: was having an MVP MVP year this year, Dak Prescott 551 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 5: was having a good year or they just weren't. They 552 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:40,240 Speaker 5: weren't having a good years as a team. They weren't 553 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 5: having a good year as a team. Like their offense 554 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,479 Speaker 5: was showing up, they just weren't getting it done on defense, 555 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 5: they weren't getting it done as a team. That's what 556 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 5: I would say about that I was watching Dallas. I'd 557 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 5: say I was watching Dallas when I came up with 558 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 5: those conclusions. Here's what I'd say. If I'm looking at 559 00:29:56,680 --> 00:30:00,200 Speaker 5: it from the standpoint of what's a safe pick. I 560 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 5: wouldn't say it's a mediocre pick to bring in Mike McCarthy. 561 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:05,760 Speaker 5: I would say it's a safe pick to bring in 562 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 5: Mike McCarthy because you're at least giving your I don't 563 00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 5: think you can bring in a young new coach to 564 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 5: such a storied institution of a franchise. 565 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 3: Why not in the state that it's in right now. 566 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 5: Thirty four years I know, and I don't think that 567 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 5: they could do it twice in a row. 568 00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 3: I don't think that they take that twice. 569 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 6: I just feel like the Steelers are living in past 570 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 6: glory too much. They don't make a spicy move. You 571 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 6: got to make a spicy move. 572 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 5: You don't disagree with it. Now, I will say, I 573 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 5: don't disagree with you on that now. 574 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 1: I asked. 575 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 5: I raised the question because because you brought up Mike Mike, Mike, 576 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 5: Tomlin right and and Plett. You've even been I don't 577 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 5: want to speak for you, but you can confirm more 578 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 5: than I like. I know I've heard Ben Roethlisberger. I 579 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:56,960 Speaker 5: know I've heard players say that the culture of what 580 00:30:57,160 --> 00:31:04,000 Speaker 5: the Steelers legacy represented was it was fading away under 581 00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 5: under Mike Tomlin. It wasn't that culture that was there 582 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 5: those years prior to were were fading away. 583 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 3: Is that true? Cannot can't? Can we? Is that true? 584 00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 3: I don't. 585 00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 2: I don't necessarily agree with that. 586 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 3: Okay, give me give me your take on. 587 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 2: I will say is from my honest opinion, I don't 588 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 2: because the culture of this organization exists in the players 589 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:31,760 Speaker 2: and inside the locker room. Correct those guys that the 590 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:36,680 Speaker 2: Greg Lloyd's and the and the Jason Gilden's and Demoni Dawson, 591 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 2: those days are gone now. It's it's a new generation 592 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 2: of players. And they don't carry you. 593 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:48,560 Speaker 5: When you say that with that was passing on like 594 00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:51,800 Speaker 5: like from from l c and and and from from 595 00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:54,560 Speaker 5: the White White and from me and Joe and Jack 596 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:58,960 Speaker 5: and and Bradshaw and Rocky Blyier and Franco. It was 597 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 5: passing on to Jerome Bettis and to I mean Lynn 598 00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 5: Swan to uh to a Louis Libs to a to 599 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:11,160 Speaker 5: a Yancey Thig and Charles Johnson to a Plexico burst 600 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:14,440 Speaker 5: like it was a generation, a generation of Steelers. 601 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:18,200 Speaker 3: You like that one, you like that you like that one. 602 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:21,440 Speaker 3: We were allowed to grovern our own self. 603 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:26,040 Speaker 2: And these like the players, as Tom has went on, 604 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 2: it's just not the same. But I don't think Mike 605 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 2: Tomlin had anything to do with that. 606 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 5: See, I feel like Bill Coward kept that Chuck Nole 607 00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 5: type of environment. I believe when we saw what Bill 608 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 5: Kawer was doing as a coach, it was that was it. 609 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:46,040 Speaker 5: And he's a p He's a West p A guy. 610 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 5: I mean, he's a Pittsburgher like as he's I think 611 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 5: he's from like what like Crafting or something something. He's 612 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 5: a West p A guy and he brought that still 613 00:32:56,400 --> 00:33:00,240 Speaker 5: city mentality to to the table. Now, while I'll say 614 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:04,880 Speaker 5: I believe Tomlin brought a toughness and that same type 615 00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:07,800 Speaker 5: of mentality to the table, I'm just basing it off 616 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 5: of what I've heard Guys Debo, you know, Ben Roethlisberger, 617 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 5: they're like Terry Bradshaw didn't like Tomlin at all. I 618 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:16,880 Speaker 5: don't you know, I don't know what that's based off of, 619 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:18,840 Speaker 5: but he didn't think he was a good coach at all. 620 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:20,160 Speaker 3: There were a lot of Steelers. 621 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:23,960 Speaker 5: I remember here Mel Blunt talk about the receivers and 622 00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 5: how some of them, you know, just don't embrace what 623 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:30,440 Speaker 5: that it represents to wear that black and gold, you ward. 624 00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 5: So I'm just trying to you know, I'm putting it 625 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:35,760 Speaker 5: out there. I will say, you get a guy that 626 00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 5: understands Western Pennsylvania mentality, what that heart knows, lunch pel, 627 00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:44,880 Speaker 5: hard hat working guy represents. Not saying this is any 628 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 5: comparison to Mike Tomlin, I'm just saying Mike McCarthy with 629 00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 5: an offensive mind, as an offensive minded coach, comes in 630 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 5: as like pretty much the first offensive minded coach of 631 00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 5: note to coach Ton lead this team. And the biggest 632 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 5: issue this Steelers organization has been suffering and struggling with 633 00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 5: is having an inept offense and not having a quarterback. 634 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:12,920 Speaker 5: If you're talking about putting your offense in a position 635 00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:16,319 Speaker 5: where you can now build your team, see what you're 636 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 5: going to do because you have an aging you have 637 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,920 Speaker 5: aging parts and pieces of your defense as well. But 638 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:23,719 Speaker 5: you have some really good pieces on your defensive side too. 639 00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 5: If you're going to make a run for this and 640 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:29,920 Speaker 5: you're going to do something, why not bring in an 641 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:32,600 Speaker 5: offensive minded coach? And why not bring in an offensive 642 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 5: minded coach that understands the landscape of what the Pittsburgh 643 00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:39,600 Speaker 5: Steelers represent me personally. I think it's a good hire. 644 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 5: I think it's a safe hire. It's not a new guy, 645 00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:45,600 Speaker 5: it's not a new deal and all that stuff. But 646 00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:48,840 Speaker 5: I do believe this is a good hire for the 647 00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:51,840 Speaker 5: Pittsburgh Steelers. My take on it, I'm a fan of 648 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 5: Mike McCarthy. If it wasn't for Plexico Burus and Antonio Piers, 649 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,879 Speaker 5: I probably would have ended up being a Green Bay 650 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:02,320 Speaker 5: Packer for the rest in my career because of my 651 00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:08,239 Speaker 5: affinity for Mike McCarthy.

Good does matter? 712 00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 3: I probably dominated anyway, so all thought doesn't even matter. Uh, 713 00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:20,480 Speaker 3: let's let's move on. What what what you got for 714 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:21,080 Speaker 3: us this week? 715 00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:23,480 Speaker 7: I guess so today, obviously it's gonna be the NFC 716 00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:26,320 Speaker 7: and AFC Championship. We got Patriots at Broncos and the 717 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:29,359 Speaker 7: if he's AFC Championship with the spread coming in at 718 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:32,200 Speaker 7: minus three and a half for the New England Patriots 719 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 7: and the total at forty three and a half. 720 00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:41,320 Speaker 2: And a hatred is going to Denver. Like I said earlier, 721 00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:44,480 Speaker 2: no po nixed minus Green I half. I believe that 722 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:48,320 Speaker 2: the Patriots will cover with that, but the points will 723 00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:50,759 Speaker 2: go under. I don't believe that then was going to 724 00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:52,520 Speaker 2: be able to go a lot of points over Mike 725 00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:53,360 Speaker 2: mate defense. 726 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:56,480 Speaker 3: What you got, Drake May? 727 00:38:56,760 --> 00:38:57,279 Speaker 1: I go ya? 728 00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,919 Speaker 6: Drake May would have letter Tom Brady with have letter 729 00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 6: differ Broncos without vote Nick, Nick don't scare soul. So 730 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:06,719 Speaker 6: I'm gonna take the hunder on the point and the 731 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:08,920 Speaker 6: Patriots money line to go up there and win the 732 00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:09,839 Speaker 6: game went out. 733 00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:15,920 Speaker 5: You know, I probably am going to give a different 734 00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:19,799 Speaker 5: selection than than probably what I did during the course 735 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:21,600 Speaker 5: of the week. But he cares that I give him 736 00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 5: two chances to get it right, I guess, but I 737 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:29,000 Speaker 5: will say maybe I am on the same page. I 738 00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:32,600 Speaker 5: just think that New England Patriots performance was very impressive. 739 00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:37,120 Speaker 5: They were able to establish the run. Drake May, he's 740 00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:38,480 Speaker 5: playing MVP level ball. 741 00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:39,399 Speaker 3: If I were to. 742 00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:43,040 Speaker 5: Say who's the MVP, I mean, some people. 743 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:45,279 Speaker 3: A lot of people think of Stafford, don't. 744 00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:47,840 Speaker 5: I don't have a problem with people throwing Drake May's 745 00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:50,920 Speaker 5: name in there and saying that he should be MVP 746 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:52,360 Speaker 5: or should have been whatever. 747 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:54,439 Speaker 3: However you look at it. In the playoffs don't matter. 748 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:58,480 Speaker 5: But I like Drake May, I like the New England Patriots. 749 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,080 Speaker 5: I do think that it will be a defensive struggle, 750 00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:02,840 Speaker 5: so I'm gonna take the under on the points. But 751 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:07,040 Speaker 5: I do believe that in the New England Patriots against 752 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 5: this this Broncos. 753 00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:11,920 Speaker 7: Team, the Rams are taking on the Seahawks tomorrow at 754 00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:14,600 Speaker 7: three thirty on Big Fox in the NFC Championship. The 755 00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:17,600 Speaker 7: spread is coming in at Seahawks being the favorite at 756 00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:19,880 Speaker 7: two and a half and the total is forty five 757 00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:20,439 Speaker 7: and a half. 758 00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,400 Speaker 2: I think they disrespecting the Seattle Seahawks the defense and 759 00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:26,920 Speaker 2: all fools food the way that they can run the ball, 760 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:30,279 Speaker 2: throw it and get out for the quarterback. I do 761 00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:32,480 Speaker 2: believe it's gonna be a high scoring game, so I'm 762 00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:35,320 Speaker 2: going to go over on the points and their minus. 763 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:37,160 Speaker 3: Two points is disrespectful. 764 00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:41,080 Speaker 2: They will cover that, and I would just say that 765 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:43,520 Speaker 2: I think the Seattle Seahawks may win this game by 766 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:44,240 Speaker 2: ten points. 767 00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:48,839 Speaker 6: Uh oh. I'm gonna go with the Seahawks to win 768 00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:53,160 Speaker 6: this game because Damn Garner's gonna be hit redemptive. They're 769 00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:55,640 Speaker 6: gonna do it for Ricky Waters. They gonna win this 770 00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:58,160 Speaker 6: game because of the home crowd and the home crowd 771 00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:01,240 Speaker 6: only to watch. I'm gonna think on the point did well. 772 00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:03,200 Speaker 1: Well. 773 00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:05,719 Speaker 5: If they're gonna do it for Ricky Waters, I think 774 00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:08,200 Speaker 5: the rams is gonna do it for Eric Dickerson and 775 00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:11,479 Speaker 5: Marshall folks, And I'm going with the quarterback in this one. 776 00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:13,840 Speaker 5: I think It's been a great ride for Sam Darnold. 777 00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:17,279 Speaker 5: This defense has been amazing. But I think there's gonna 778 00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:19,600 Speaker 5: be points scored. I'm gonna take the over on the points, 779 00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:23,520 Speaker 5: and I believe that the Rams will win this game. 780 00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 5: So I'm a money line the Rams on this one. Yeah, 781 00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:28,960 Speaker 5: I think the Rams are gonna win. 782 00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:30,520 Speaker 3: So there you go. 783 00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:32,840 Speaker 5: That's our picks for the week.
