We have not actually convened 25 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 1: to record in our normal capacity since I contracted what 26 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 1: I would describe as the black Death and tried to 27 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: do a show on the Tuesday following the National Championship. 28 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: This is true. 29 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 2: And I don't get to talk into a microphone that 30 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 2: much anymore, tie, So I really do miss you and 31 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 2: I missed doing this, So we're going to ramp up 32 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 2: from here on out. 33 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 1: How does that sound?

I got 36 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: at home a little bit later than usual from the 37 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 1: mysterious day job, so I am dressed in full business 38 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: casual regalia. Ooh, normally it's just something comfy, so you 39 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 1: could go to say a cocktail party right now.

Oh, no problem, full business casual regalia. 42 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 1: And I popped open the fridge when I got home. 43 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: And I don't usually do this on a on a 44 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,399 Speaker 1: recording night, certainly not on a school night. But there 45 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 1: was one tie one singular bottle of wire bocker. Last 46 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: Chance IPA just staring back at me, looking lonely in 47 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 1: the fridge. Are you sepping? I'm sipping down, oh little 48 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,839 Speaker 1: Last Chance IPA here on my lips. Yeah, all right, 49 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,919 Speaker 1: I am not. I am in a soundproof, very small room. 50 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: Just I stand up now, by the way, I don't 51 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 1: know if you stand when you do the show. I've 52 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: never actually gotten an office chair from my studio, so 53 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 1: I'm still sitting on like a collapsible stool. Okay, soa 54 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: ask you a question, please please? What are we doing today? 55 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:06,919 Speaker 1: What's the plan? Skip? That's a hell of a question, man, 56 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 1: Like you said, we did our live show. We ran 57 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,239 Speaker 1: our live show from Atlanta, which I hope everybody enjoyed. 58 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 1: I hope that gets everybody juiced up for our next 59 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 1: live show wherever that may be. Details forthcoming in the 60 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 1: next couple months, for sure. But we've got a bunch 61 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 1: of news items that have accrued since we last had 62 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,959 Speaker 1: a chance to record, and when we talked about the 63 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 1: National Championship. We've also got our Fantasy Things recap ahead 64 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: of us.

Well, thankfully, 68 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: because the Internet is a wonderful place, and because we've 69 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: got a subreddit, we've got fans who care about this 70 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: thing as much as we do.

I think what you're saying 136 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 1: is we have. Yeah, man, a lot going down here 137 00:07:57,520 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 1: in the college football world. Where do we want to start? 138 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: All right, Let's start with very very very old news. 139 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 1: And that is after a pretty quick search. After Arizona 140 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: let go of Rich Rodriguez, their head coach and solid 141 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 1: verbal guest, amidst investigations that cleared him, but still there's 142 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: ongoing lawsuits over misconduct that is alleged by a former assistant, 143 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,240 Speaker 1: Arizona decided to move on, and this of course is 144 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: a new ad. After Greg Burn left the Arizona job 145 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 1: to go to Alabama, so fresh start for Arizona football. 146 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 1: They hire Kevin Sumlin, who of course was let go 147 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 1: from Texas A and M after some drama involving a 148 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: ken Nea Modelolo interview in Khalil Tate saying you didn't 149 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,959 Speaker 1: come to Arizona to run the triple option, which I 150 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,960 Speaker 1: think was not a great outlook on it. But whatever, 151 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:54,680 Speaker 1: Kevin Sumlin is your new Arizona Wildcat football coach. Okay, 152 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 1: and I saw that he's got Marcel Yeates keeping defensive 153 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:02,680 Speaker 1: coordinator still at defensive coordinat offensive coordinator I think remains 154 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 1: a little bit up in the air. 155 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:07,199 Speaker 2: There are rumors about Cale Gundy, who has helped to 156 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 2: run Oklahoma's offense these past couple of years with Lincoln 157 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 2: Riley and before him, Bob Stoops, of course, and Oklahoma 158 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 2: is making moves of their own. I believe Shane Biemer 159 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 2: is coming over to be an offensive assistant who helped 160 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 2: to run special teams for Georgia. So certainly, Kevin someone 161 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 2: comes into a PAC twelve South that I think is 162 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 2: I would say vulnerable. 163 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:34,319 Speaker 1: Is that fair? Yeah? Well, Herm Edwards we could talk 164 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 1: about Herm Edwards later. Yeah. A lot of turnover. Look, 165 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,439 Speaker 1: USC is losing their quarterback Sam Darnold and a lot 166 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,560 Speaker 1: of players leaving early on body players leaving early. We've 167 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 1: got turnover at ASU, We've got turnover at UCLA. I 168 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 1: think to bring Kevin someone in is a good move 169 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 1: given the fact that this happened relatively late in the process. 170 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 1: I've always liked Kevin someone. I hope he succeeds at Arizona. 171 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: I don't know if he is demonstrably better or worse 172 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 1: than Rich Rodriguez based on what we saw given his 173 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 1: tenure similarities certainly at Texas A and M. But he 174 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: is a hot name in the coaching world who we 175 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: know can put up some points. So that'll at least 176 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: at a minimum be fun. 177 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:19,079 Speaker 2: Yeah, And the connection is being drawn between Cleil Tate 178 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 2: and Johnny Menzel, which I don't think is fully fair 179 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 2: to either player because of different situations and you know 180 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 2: the fact that there were different assistant coaches and different 181 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 2: teams on their schedules. The fact is both Kevin Somlin 182 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 2: and Rich Rodriguez have helped to develop transcendent dual threat 183 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,960 Speaker 2: quarterbacks at least at times at various places. You know, 184 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,839 Speaker 2: case Keenum was somebody that Kevin someone had a great 185 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,839 Speaker 2: deal of success with a Houston throwing the ball, and 186 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 2: Johnny Manzel and his dual way and Texas A and 187 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:49,680 Speaker 2: M eventually became a pretty substantial running team. So interesting 188 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 2: to see what happens because Arizona schedule is pretty good 189 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 2: not much, you know. I know they have a Houston 190 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 2: team that's going through some changes in the non conference 191 00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 2: part of the schedule. Well, yeah, as you mentioned, a 192 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 2: lot of turnover in the South with ASU and UCLA 193 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 2: and USC. Colorado certainly does not look to be necessarily 194 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:07,400 Speaker 2: on the upswing after a good year a couple of 195 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,360 Speaker 2: years ago. So it's a good time right now to 196 00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,319 Speaker 2: be Arizona. We'll see what happens. We'll see what happens there, 197 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 2: I suppose, And this is all sort of tie as 198 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 2: you know, in the much broader picture of the final 199 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 2: signing day is I believe two weeks from. 200 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 1: Today signing Day part duh, correct, Yeah, this is a thing. Now. 201 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 1: We did a signing day show a couple weeks ago 202 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 1: during Signing Day Round one. Now there will be a 203 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 1: signing Day Round two. I mentioned Herm Edwards. Herm Edwards 204 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:44,839 Speaker 1: talked a little bit about the process. There are a 205 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 1: lot of coaches out there talking about this new sort 206 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 1: of cycle, if you will. I saw some things being 207 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 1: written about how now the term best available has really 208 00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,559 Speaker 1: bubbled up in the college football recruiting world. If you 209 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 1: need a guy at a certain position, or if there 210 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 1: is an area on your roster where you need to 211 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 1: try and add some depth. Best available ie guys who 212 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 1: didn't sign the first time around, is now something you're 213 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 1: going to hear a little bit more of in college football. 214 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, and with the new signing period, there are players 215 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:24,079 Speaker 2: who have locked into places where head coaches have since 216 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 2: been let go or have since on their own volition, 217 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 2: decided to leave their schools, and yet they are locked 218 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 2: in early not necessarily the best situation position coaches, coordinators. Obviously, 219 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 2: we saw all of the techs A and M offering 220 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 2: the world to Dave Randa at LSU. He decides to say, 221 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 2: at LSU for a ridiculous and deserved because he was 222 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:45,599 Speaker 2: able to negotiate it and had all the leverage. I 223 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 2: think he's he's got a two and a half million 224 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 2: dollars a year contract for your deal for ten million. 225 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 1: Also the governor of Louisiana. We're still waiting to confirm that, but. 226 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 2: It's the governor of Louisiana that's part of it. Maybe a 227 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,680 Speaker 2: lieutenant governor. Sure, Mike Alco goes from Notre Dame to 228 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,839 Speaker 2: College Station, tex A and M and Jimbo hire him away. 229 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 2: And so we have all these moving pieces, and some 230 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 2: players are locked in, some are waiting to see where 231 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:13,080 Speaker 2: everything falls by early February. But to me, the most 232 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 2: interesting thing year over year, since it's generally seems that 233 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 2: the strongest, sort of legacy type programs tend to do 234 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 2: the best during recruiting cycles. This year, you know, Alabama, Georgia, Texas, 235 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,560 Speaker 2: you know, Miami, Penn State, you know, all doing very 236 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 2: very well. The most interesting thing to me is new 237 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 2: coaches that come in and have six weeks, eight, nine 238 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 2: weeks whatever to keep a class together and add pieces 239 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:41,320 Speaker 2: to the class, be it from the place they were 240 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:45,080 Speaker 2: last at or just scrambling to sort of fill out 241 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:48,200 Speaker 2: the class of talent. Both that and so this year, 242 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 2: you know it's you know, Willy Taggart at Florida State 243 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:54,439 Speaker 2: and Mario christobal Is, Scott Frost, Chad Morris, Joe moorehead 244 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 2: you know all over the country. There are sort of 245 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 2: big stories like that, Kevin someone, as we mentioned herm Edwards. 246 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 2: There's there are huge stories like that. I'm also super 247 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 2: interested in the first full cycle coaches when they actually 248 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,840 Speaker 2: have a chance, because there are some intriguing stories from 249 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 2: guys that had the full opportunity. Now to go through 250 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 2: a cycle and to see how they can actually recruit 251 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 2: when given a year or a year and a half 252 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 2: or whatever the case. 253 00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 1: So those to me are the you know, PJ. 254 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 2: Flack, for instance, is a very good, very very good class, 255 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 2: all things considered, a Minnesota. So those are the kinds 256 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 2: of stories I like paying attention to. They're a little 257 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 2: bit more exciting to me than you know, is Georgia 258 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 2: going to close with the biggest class in the country. 259 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm interested just from the standpoint and you know, 260 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 1: you know my stance on recruiting. Yeah, I've never been 261 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 1: the biggest fan of recruiting. You have tonowledge it. It 262 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 1: is the lifeblood of college football. I've never been such 263 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 1: that I'm really jazzed up to go and follow what 264 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: an eighteen year old is thinking. 265 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 2: It's eight by the way, twenty eighteen fantasy thing. Recruiting 266 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 2: is the lifeblood, right of course. 267 00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, but this is different, and because it's different, that 268 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 1: makes it more interesting to me. I concur with you. 269 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 1: I'm interested in seeing how these first couple cycles really 270 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 1: play themselves out. I find myself paying a little bit 271 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: closer attention to what's going on on the recruiting trail. 272 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 1: We will, by the way, be doing another Signing Day 273 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 1: show to kind of conclude what's going on in the 274 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 1: recruiting world, and that's coming up in what two weeks 275 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 1: I guessks two weeks from today I believe is Signing Day, 276 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 1: official Signing Day or late sign Day, whatever they're calling 277 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: it this year. Okay, so stay tuned for more information 278 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 1: on that front. You did talk about guys who are 279 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 1: locked in. Obviously there's a lot of coaching turnover going 280 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 1: on around college football, which now leads into new transfer rules. 281 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 2: So nothing is official yet. This is what's being proposed. 282 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 2: These are the sort of the idea is to give 283 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 2: players a little bit more freedom in the way that 284 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 2: coaches have freedom to just up and leave to better 285 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 2: their own situation, in which you can't. You know, we 286 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 2: live in a capitalist society. You know, if you want 287 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 2: to pursue a job that you consider be better for 288 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 2: you and your family, you have that freedom. And so 289 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 2: now we're looking at players having a little bit more 290 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 2: of that freedom. You know, if they go somewhere and 291 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 2: they really don't like it and the situation changes and 292 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 2: a coach leaves or whatever the case, you know, they 293 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 2: have a sick family, whatever, that they can go transfer 294 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 2: back or transfer to a better situation, could be to 295 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 2: a lower situation. It could be very clear that they're 296 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 2: not going to be getting a starting job anytime soon, 297 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 2: or they get injured and they want to be close 298 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 2: to home. 299 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 1: Whatever. 300 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 2: There are all sorts of reasons to transfer that are 301 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 2: I think are pretty life legitimate. So the idea and 302 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 2: the proposed rule I believe is you can transfer without 303 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 2: sitting out. I think you can only transfer without sitting 304 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 2: out once. We still have the grad transfer idea. Obviously, 305 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 2: people who look at NCAA rules and the freedoms that 306 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 2: players don't have now, I think like both of us 307 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 2: look at this as a positive thing more than negative. Yeah, 308 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 2: and sure, coaches now are crazy concerned that they're going 309 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 2: to have to recruit now twice as much because they 310 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 2: have to recruit transfers and sort of recruit their own 311 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 2: players to stay in a weird way, and everybody is 312 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 2: sort of terrified of having dramatic roster turnover, perhaps in 313 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 2: other sports like basketball where you don't have really big 314 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 2: rosters to play around with, more so than football. But 315 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 2: that is sort of an ongoing story, which how do 316 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:28,639 Speaker 2: you feel generally, is. 317 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 1: There anybody out there who's a college football fan who 318 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 1: is dramatically opposed to this idea of not having to 319 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 1: sit out. 320 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:38,200 Speaker 2: Yes, the idea is you should be more loyal. This 321 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:39,919 Speaker 2: is college sports, this is you know. 322 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 1: Okay. The counterpoint coaches can leave on a moment's notice. 323 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 2: Right, right, right right, And I think there's very few 324 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 2: people who acknowledge having a problem when it's put into 325 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:52,920 Speaker 2: like that sort of dichotomy. But the worry, the slippery 326 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 2: slope type people who already kind of soft and worry 327 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 2: about everything, say, well, then it's just becomes pro sports. 328 00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:02,200 Speaker 2: The idea is you're there for three or four years, 329 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 2: and it's that we have free agency, and that takes 330 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 2: away the allure of amateurs. 331 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 1: I was once told by a D one or a 332 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:15,400 Speaker 1: couple D one athletes, I should say that there are 333 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:19,719 Speaker 1: very few, if any Division I college athletes who go 334 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:24,440 Speaker 1: to play football who don't think when they sign on 335 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 1: with the school that they're going to play in the 336 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: NFL someday. Right. And that's not to say the only 337 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 1: reason they go to school is to play football, but 338 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 1: the larger point is that they all think they can 339 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:39,720 Speaker 1: play in the NFL. Sure, so you know the ability 340 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 1: to transfer to get playing time, the ability to transfer 341 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 1: out of a situation be it a coaching situation or 342 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:52,640 Speaker 1: otherwise that a player doesn't deem palatable for them. I'm 343 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,399 Speaker 1: okay with that. Please email us, tweet us, let us 344 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 1: know your thoughts on it. I'd be very interested to 345 00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 1: get some other feedback on this. 346 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,879 Speaker 2: But you discover the weather in South Bend isn't what 347 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 2: it was in May when you visit it. Listen, I'm 348 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 2: right there with that sentiment because I did visit Eugene, 349 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 2: Oregon when it was beautiful out, and I was it 350 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,919 Speaker 2: was a rude awakening come early January when I returned 351 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:18,680 Speaker 2: from winter break. 352 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,919 Speaker 1: Not my favorite moment, all right. So we'll have to 353 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 1: pay attention to transfer rules and where that ends up, 354 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,919 Speaker 1: settling a few other odds and ends here before we 355 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 1: jump into fantasy things. Yes, on that topic, there have 356 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:38,680 Speaker 1: been some quarterback transfers. There have been some graduate transfers 357 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 1: of note, correct. 358 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, announcements more than anything, and there hasn't been you know, 359 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 2: Brady White from Arizona States going over to Memphis, which 360 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 2: feels like a good fit. He was behind Blake Barnett 361 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 2: and Manny Wilkins. Keller Christ also from the Pac twelve, 362 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,200 Speaker 2: who started a bunch of games and was only good 363 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 2: against Oregon by the way. 364 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 1: Wow, he was very bad. Funny how that works right 365 00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 1: against everybody but the vaunted Oregon d defense of these 366 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 1: past couple of years. Now, But you know Wilton Spate 367 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 1: who is from Virginia but obviously has been at Mischion 368 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:08,439 Speaker 1: in these past few years. He is a grad transfer 369 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 1: and that was announced a while ago. Donovan Tate from 370 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,439 Speaker 1: Arizona with Khalil Tate succeeding. We'll see what happens with 371 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:17,359 Speaker 1: Brandon Dawkins. It's presumed that Joe Burrow at Ohio State 372 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 1: won't necessarily be winning the job in Columbus, so he 373 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 1: could be I don't think anything's official with that. 374 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:27,160 Speaker 2: He could be a name. kJ Cart of Samuels, who 375 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 2: has been Jake Browning's backup, is going to UCLA as 376 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 2: a grad transfer, so that at least gives Chip Kelly 377 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:37,120 Speaker 2: some depth after Josh Rosen has left for the NFL 378 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 2: all over the place. It seems like I'm trying to 379 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 2: think of other situations, but there seems Jacob Park at 380 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 2: Iowa State. Obviously, he lost the job after some off 381 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 2: field stuff made sort of everything pretty easy for Kyle 382 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 2: Kemp to come in and succeed. Quinton Dormandy at Tennessee 383 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 2: decided to transfer. Jeff George June year at Illinois. I'm really, 384 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 2: I'm really going down here with this. But my final 385 00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 2: one is Montgomery Van gorder. 386 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 1: Ty, Yeah, going to Youngstown State going to Youngstoe. 387 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:15,160 Speaker 2: I did see that, yes, So I assume more of 388 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 2: these situations will start happening after springball, when depth charts 389 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 2: become a little bit more clear. But yeah, it's there. 390 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 2: Seems to be a lot in the way of transfers. 391 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 2: And on a similar but also drastically different note, Clemson's 392 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 2: entire defensive line decided to stay. 393 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I was I was going to go there 394 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 1: next with it. So I've got in front of me 395 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:40,400 Speaker 1: the list on nfl dot Com underclassmen who have declared 396 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:45,639 Speaker 1: for the NFL Draft, now the official final list. I think, 397 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 1: in the interest of time, we might be best suited 398 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 1: to read off the notable players who intend to return 399 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,880 Speaker 1: to school, as opposed to going through all the players 400 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,960 Speaker 1: who have declared, because it is a long list of 401 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,879 Speaker 1: stars that have declared to go to the NFL. But 402 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:08,960 Speaker 1: as you mentioned, Christian Wilkins staying, Austin Bryant staying Cleveland, 403 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 1: Ferrell staying. Also on the offensive side of the football 404 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 1: for Clemson, Mitch Hyatt, they're big tackle he is staying. 405 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:21,159 Speaker 1: That is very significant for the coming twenty eighteen ACC season. 406 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean there is there's an argument to be made. 407 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,400 Speaker 2: I mean, Damien Harris I believe is returning to Alabama, 408 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 2: So that's a huge piece for that offense with we 409 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 2: presume to attack of Bloa under center. But I would 410 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 2: not be surprised if both quarterbacks once again saw time. 411 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:39,359 Speaker 2: Josh Adams declared early correct, Josh Adams is gone. Yes, 412 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 2: a number of the front on Ohio State's defense gone, 413 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 2: and deservedly so. They you know, there's not much left 414 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 2: to prove for a lot of those buck guys, Taekwon Lewis, 415 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 2: Sam Hubbard, a lot of those guys very good. Deon 416 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 2: Kane did leave Clemson, so offensively, there is some turnover 417 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,479 Speaker 2: for Clemson. He was what appeared to be their best receiver. 418 00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 2: Tremaine Edmonds, I think looks like be a top I 419 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 2: forget which Edmonds, either Terrell or true. I think it's 420 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,400 Speaker 2: is supposed to be like a top ten type pick 421 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 2: in the upcoming draft, so that seemed like a no brainer. 422 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 2: Darius Guice, if you want to read any of these 423 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:13,639 Speaker 2: any of this list that's in front of you, and 424 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:15,919 Speaker 2: this is just a very specific request because the Eagles 425 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 2: are in the Super Bowl. Anybody could read a list. 426 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 2: Do you want to do it in like a Philly accent? 427 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 1: For me, I can't do a great Philly accent other 428 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: than what I would just do normally. So if there 429 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 1: are any Marios on this list, let me know. I'd 430 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 1: be happy to read their names. 431 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 2: I can't believe I have to start suffering through marios 432 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:33,160 Speaker 2: every week and talking about Oregon football. 433 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:39,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's there, you go, the karma or the karma involved. Well. So, 434 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:43,400 Speaker 1: Bryce love another name, Yeah, has decided to stick around 435 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 1: at Stanford, which calls some people off guard. I was 436 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:50,680 Speaker 1: one of them. Yeah you too, absolutely, especially at the 437 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:54,399 Speaker 1: running back position where you can see your career flash 438 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:56,959 Speaker 1: before your eyes very quickly, and coming off an injury 439 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 1: filled season. Yeah, Bryce loves sticking around at Stanford, so 440 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,879 Speaker 1: good for him. I hope it works out. David Sills 441 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 1: is going to stick around at West Virginia as is 442 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 1: Will Greer. Mm hmmm. His quarter was just clear to 443 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:12,720 Speaker 1: start throwing, so good for him. Miles Gaskin sticking around 444 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 1: at Washington, Ryan Finley, who else, Drew Locke, Clayton Thorson, 445 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 1: Jared Stidham, Cam Smith at USC the middle linebacker sticking around. 446 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,399 Speaker 1: So some big names that are sticking around. Far greater 447 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,959 Speaker 1: number of big names have declared early for the draft, 448 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:32,800 Speaker 1: and again we won't go through all of them, but 449 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 1: we will talk more about that. I'm sure as we 450 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 1: get closer to the NFL Draft we can break down 451 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 1: some of these guys that are going pro. 452 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, there there's I mean a lot of the 453 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 2: names are your household names that have decided to turn pro. 454 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 2: Not a ton of surprises. I did appreciate. I think 455 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:53,399 Speaker 2: Eddie Pinero the kicker, Yes, Florida their best offensive player 456 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:54,440 Speaker 2: has declared. 457 00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:56,880 Speaker 1: I always enjoy that. So yeah, a lot of I mean, 458 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 1: Tanner Lee lighting up? Where is he lighting it up? 459 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 2: So there's that hope he wins a thousand games and 460 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 2: makes a pajillion dollars in the NFL. 461 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:11,439 Speaker 1: All right, give me a quick thirty second recap of 462 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 1: what's going on. In the assistant coaching world beyond twenty 463 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 1: four year old Charlie Weis junior being Lane Kiffin's new 464 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:21,640 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator at FAU. Oh, that's my favorite thing, though. 465 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:23,160 Speaker 1: We are going to get a lot of mileage out 466 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:23,639 Speaker 1: of that one. 467 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:27,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's see. So, I mean we talked about the 468 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 2: I mean the Charlie Weis. Did you read the thing? 469 00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:31,199 Speaker 2: I think it was Matt Hayes wrote something from bleacher 470 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 2: Report today and I enjoyed. 471 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:34,640 Speaker 1: I thought it was a good piece. He said. 472 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 2: He interviewed Gil Brandt, the old personnel guy who worked 473 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 2: all over the NFL. He's like, I've I've come across too. 474 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:44,360 Speaker 2: This is my harried and grizzled NFL personnel voice. I've 475 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 2: come across two people. I was positive we're going to 476 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 2: be huge successes as coaches. Bill Belichick and Charlie weisst junior. Wow, Okay, yeah, 477 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:57,399 Speaker 2: and listen, what do we love more than like a wounderkin? Like, 478 00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 2: we love talking to Chris Brown smart football. We like 479 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:02,400 Speaker 2: guys is that you know, are super smart and love 480 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:04,639 Speaker 2: nerding out about football. And we hope he is a 481 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,239 Speaker 2: huge success. He will be two years older than some 482 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,160 Speaker 2: of his players here. 483 00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 1: Here's what we're gonna do. Yeah, we are going to 484 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:15,359 Speaker 1: send an interview request for Charlie Weis, junior to Fau. Okay, 485 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 1: I'm going to do that about this show. I'm going 486 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 1: to figure out how who I can email about that 487 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:21,639 Speaker 1: after this show, and we're going to see if we 488 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 1: can bring him on because we've got a bit of 489 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: a track record of interviewing some of these wonderkin coaches. 490 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:31,119 Speaker 2: Okay, so across college football, a lot of schools have 491 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 2: made moves. LSU kept, Dave Randa lost Matt Canada, who 492 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 2: I guess they sort of mutually agreed to part ways. 493 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 2: Matt Canada after a year is now going to Maryland 494 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 2: to be dj Diurkins offensive coach. They promote Steve Ensminger. 495 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:45,120 Speaker 2: Is that how you pronounced? 496 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 1: Sure it is? Now? That sounds right to me. 497 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 2: He was at Orgeron's interim offensive coordinator a couple of 498 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 2: years ago. I think LSU fans were sort of deflated 499 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 2: by that promotion. They had hoped for something a little 500 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,160 Speaker 2: bit more creative and splashy. 501 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 1: But you know, we'll see what happens. 502 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 2: The LSU offense certainly got better when he took control 503 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 2: A couple of years ago. Herb Hand moves from being 504 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:12,160 Speaker 2: the Auburn offensive line coach our pal Herband the offensive 505 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:15,920 Speaker 2: line yes and co offensive coordinator I believe with Tim Beck, 506 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 2: so maybe a little bit more creative. Who knows. With 507 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:23,280 Speaker 2: Herb's background and spread offenses. Ucla completed their staff. Jerry 508 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 2: Asinaro should be a very good defensive coordinator for them. 509 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 2: Peter Sermon moves on from Louisville. He's going to cal 510 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 2: to be an associate head coach with that staff. And 511 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:36,680 Speaker 2: Justin Wilcox I think they played together at Oregon. Ryan 512 00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:38,680 Speaker 2: Day decided to stay at Ohio State and we'll be 513 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 2: calling plays even with Kevin Wilson there. Who what other 514 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 2: huge moves am I forgetting ty Joe Morehead together his staff? 515 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 2: John Chavis to Arkansas I think is still a pretty 516 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:53,439 Speaker 2: good move, but we'll see what happens. Jeremy Pruitt hired 517 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:57,439 Speaker 2: Tyson Helton away from USC who was in charge of 518 00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 2: I think the passing game for the Trojan Alex Grinch, 519 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:04,119 Speaker 2: who was very good and creative for a secretly decent 520 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 2: Washington State. Secretly very good. He's a mean one, very creative, 521 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 2: I think defensive football mind. He moves from Washington State 522 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 2: to Ohio State, joining that staff Florida State. Willie Taggart 523 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:18,919 Speaker 2: hired Marked Antonio's co defensive coordinator who's been around in 524 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:20,880 Speaker 2: East Lansing for a long long time. I think that's 525 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 2: a pretty good move. Kind of weird. Derek Dooley to Miszoo. 526 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 1: Derek Zoo, very very strange. You know. 527 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:31,399 Speaker 2: The report too, was well, a lot of guys that 528 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:34,439 Speaker 2: Missoo interviewed didn't want to sign the contract that was 529 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 2: offered because of a number of stipulations that were in 530 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 2: the deal. Great Derek Dooley sign that contract. That was 531 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 2: the report. 532 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,440 Speaker 1: Well, we'll we'll keep tabs on what else is getting 533 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 1: on and we'll talk about it on future shows. The 534 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,560 Speaker 1: only other thing that we'd be remiss if we did 535 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 1: not mention some horrible news coming out of Washington State 536 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 1: with the news that Tyler Helenski committed suicide. We saw 537 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 1: that Luke fall. We'll be wearing Helensky's number three sure 538 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 1: at the Senior Bowl. Obviously a tragic thing, an emotional 539 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 1: thing for everyone up there at Washington State. We hope 540 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 1: they're able to heal from this. But a bit of 541 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:20,960 Speaker 1: a shock in the world of college football, and certainly 542 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 1: thoughts and prayers go out to the Helenski family. Just 543 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 1: a tragedy, horrible thing. 544 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, always incredibly devastating anytime this happens, especially to a 545 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 2: younger person, especially anytime you know that there are people 546 00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 2: in that person's life who hopefully can help and step in. 547 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 2: So just a friendly reminder. I know Spencer Hall wrote 548 00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 2: about this, but you know, it's an incredibly relatable thing 549 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 2: to be feeling just incredibly down and not have control. 550 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 2: Hopefully you can reach out to people and hopefully if 551 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:53,440 Speaker 2: you sense that in somebody you're close to, you can 552 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 2: be in their lives physically, you know, be present as 553 00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 2: much as you possibly can. So Ill said, we really yeah, 554 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 2: we really hope you know everybody is able to heal. 555 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 1: And and I don't know, just yeah, it was a shock. 556 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 1: I saw it. I couldn't believe it, couldn't believe it. 557 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 1: It's incredibly awful. All right, Uh, let's make the awkward 558 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 1: segue away from news, and certainly away from that tragic 559 00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 1: news onto something a little bit more lighthearted, and that 560 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:28,719 Speaker 1: is our final Fantasy Things scorecards. So for those of 561 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 1: you new listeners out there who might have found the 562 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 1: show and wondering what is a what's a fantasy thing? 563 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:37,800 Speaker 1: Well again, we came up with this concept about what 564 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 1: two three years ago? Yeah, that sounds right. Two three 565 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: years ago. We decided that instead of picking a fantasy 566 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 1: football team, which everyone hopefully is familiar with, you pick 567 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:53,640 Speaker 1: a team of football players, an imaginary team of guys, 568 00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 1: and you get points based on how they perform in 569 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 1: real life. We decided that we would put our own 570 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 1: little spin on it in a college football since and 571 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 1: draft fantasy things, which really amounts to storylines in the 572 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:10,680 Speaker 1: world of college football. We do it before the season starts. Essentially, 573 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 1: we're predicting what storylines and things will be hot over 574 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:19,480 Speaker 1: the course of the coming college football season. We pick 575 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:22,520 Speaker 1: a roster. I'm looking We each had what eight entries 576 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 1: here on our teams, and then, for the first time ever, 577 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 1: I think we actually had an accurate account of WHU 578 00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 1: won who lost. In the past. Last year, you and 579 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 1: I tried to duke it out and argue about who won. 580 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 1: I got accused of so many bullying. Well, you were 581 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 1: a bully item. We were a straight up bully in 582 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 1: that show man. I was accused of being a weak 583 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 1: beta male. Yeah, it was ugly. Thankfully the reddit the 584 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 1: subreddit a gentleman in particular who goes by striker Obi 585 00:31:55,840 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 1: Mike Yes on the social media he so graciously put 586 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:04,240 Speaker 1: together a scorecard of how we were doing each and 587 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 1: every week on this It was simply a binary scoring system. 588 00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:11,959 Speaker 1: If in the span of a given week, one of 589 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 1: our storylines was mentioned or or hit or talked about 590 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 1: in some way, shape or form, it was one point. 591 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 1: Otherwise it was a zero. And over the course of 592 00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 1: nineteen or twenty weeks he added them all up and 593 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 1: Dan Rubinstein, congratulations, you won by a score of seventy 594 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:35,200 Speaker 1: nine to seventy one. Oh it feels so good. 595 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 2: Congratulations out TI, thank you, And more than anything more 596 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:45,160 Speaker 2: than thanking you, I have to thank a school commercial 597 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:50,320 Speaker 2: featuring a lab and dance slash music that those two 598 00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 2: things had to be in the commercial. I have to 599 00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 2: thank Sam Darnold's draft stock and or athleticism, and of 600 00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:59,880 Speaker 2: course a video of fans taking a loss poorly. 601 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:01,440 Speaker 1: Those were my heavy hitters. 602 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,320 Speaker 2: Now, a lot of the analysis on the subreddit is 603 00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 2: that I just sort of rode those heavy hitters to 604 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 2: the title. 605 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:09,800 Speaker 1: While I'm looking at the scorecard here and that that 606 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,320 Speaker 1: would that would bear itself out in the final results. 607 00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 2: Yes to them, I would say, you're correct, you are correct. 608 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:18,080 Speaker 2: Those were my that was my what's my comparison here? 609 00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 2: How about a a Larry Walker, Dante Bischett, Andre Scalarraga, three, 610 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 2: four or five in my lineup? 611 00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 1: Just you can get by with that? You can get by. 612 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:32,120 Speaker 2: And so I had I won with both the highest 613 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 2: scoring item and the lowest scoring ie. 614 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:36,680 Speaker 1: You did. So let me go through your team here again. Yeah, 615 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:40,120 Speaker 1: you want my squad in draft order at our live show. Correct, 616 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 1: let me read these off in the order that you 617 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:46,480 Speaker 1: drafted your team. Okay, and you'll find a couple interesting 618 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:49,320 Speaker 1: things about this. And I don't want to throw too 619 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 1: much cold water on it, but I'm gonna make I'm 620 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:54,400 Speaker 1: gonna make a really relevant point here later on. Let's 621 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:59,280 Speaker 1: let's dialogue TI. So your first picks in this order 622 00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:06,040 Speaker 1: were jos hot takes, the coach argument penalty, which was 623 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:11,240 Speaker 1: a new thing this college football season, yep, Lane Kiffen controversies, 624 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 1: and monsoon games. Now in total, again, you had seventy 625 00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:21,960 Speaker 1: nine total points. In total, your first four draft picks 626 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:26,120 Speaker 1: only got you twenty four points. It's true. So what 627 00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:29,040 Speaker 1: I'm seeing here when I look at this is a 628 00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:31,840 Speaker 1: really strong weight towards the back end of your draft. 629 00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 1: You're a young Belichick, You're a young Scott Paoli. Just 630 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 1: really focus Art Buford on the later picks, building depth 631 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:45,840 Speaker 1: with those selections, but also getting a lot of production, 632 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 1: which is the hallmark, of course of any great dynasty. 633 00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:51,239 Speaker 1: Got a lot of man who Genobli's back there, that's 634 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:54,719 Speaker 1: rightymon Green second round pick straints. Now what I'll say 635 00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,399 Speaker 1: about those first picks. The Josh Rosens hot takes thing 636 00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 1: was fun before the season, didn't really bear itself out 637 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,280 Speaker 1: much as the year were on. Josh Rosen got hurt again. 638 00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:07,120 Speaker 1: Josh Rosens now declared for the NFL. Josh Rosen's hot 639 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:09,640 Speaker 1: takes could actually be quite interesting as he moves into 640 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:12,560 Speaker 1: the NFL and gets comfortable with whatever team picks him. Well, 641 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 1: it's all we're also entering into the interview phase. The 642 00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 1: interview phase. Sure, that didn't really amount to much for you, 643 00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:22,719 Speaker 1: only three points in totals correct. The coach argument penalty 644 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 1: didn't get a whole lot of traction, but was very 645 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 1: sporadic seven points in total. It was a utility pick. Absolutely. 646 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:37,120 Speaker 1: Your other two were lane kiff and controversies, which were fun. 647 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:40,399 Speaker 1: I don't know if there was any giant lane kiffing controversy. 648 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:44,279 Speaker 1: But seven points in total, consistent seven points over the 649 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,200 Speaker 1: course of a year not bad, I'll take that. 650 00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:48,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a lot of drumming up, a lot 651 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,200 Speaker 2: of trolling. A lot of it was Twitter related, like 652 00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:55,000 Speaker 2: when he tweeted out the Kim Jong Un thing. Yeah, 653 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 2: at the Tennessee coaching job. And yeah, the rat poison 654 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:01,399 Speaker 2: with Alabama rat poison. We talked about live show lane 655 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 2: kiff and Wright. He's always a lightning rod for attention. 656 00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:07,680 Speaker 1: Definitely had the freedom to be more vocal publicly. The 657 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 1: monsoon games, I thought, actually had a really strong gear 658 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:14,399 Speaker 1: because we had some weird weather situations. We had two 659 00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 1: hurricanes that threatened the Gulf Coast in Florida. We had 660 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:25,920 Speaker 1: weird lightning delays late in the year, weird downpour situations 661 00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:31,799 Speaker 1: that in our world qualifies as a monsoon game. Definitely 662 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,080 Speaker 1: came on real strong throughout the course of the year, 663 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:35,520 Speaker 1: probably stronger than we could. 664 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 2: Have anticipated rightfully, so we had cancelations which would have 665 00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 2: resulted in monsoon games. Have they been played, But since 666 00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 2: huge storms caused teams schools to rethink plans of putting 667 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:53,000 Speaker 2: fans and players and coaches and Harm's way, it did 668 00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:56,120 Speaker 2: deal me personally the least important part of all this 669 00:36:56,960 --> 00:37:01,120 Speaker 2: blow points wise. But yeah, I figured ty changing climate. Yeah, 670 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:03,279 Speaker 2: I really figured there was going to be just you know, 671 00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:07,160 Speaker 2: a random monsoon in La one week, a random downpour 672 00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:11,040 Speaker 2: you know that had sent water crushing through the ceiling, 673 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:13,399 Speaker 2: through the roof at the Carrier Dome. I really thought 674 00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:15,920 Speaker 2: something like that would happen, but didn't bear a ton 675 00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:16,239 Speaker 2: of fruit. 676 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:20,040 Speaker 1: From early on, those were your first four picks. Your 677 00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:22,359 Speaker 1: next four picks are really where you made your hay. 678 00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 1: That's true. This one in particular, I think among all 679 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:30,280 Speaker 1: of the picks before us, was the one that got 680 00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:35,239 Speaker 1: the most reaction from Harver bawlers. And you came up 681 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:38,200 Speaker 1: with this, I did full disclosure. You were able to 682 00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 1: draft this in the first four rounds. You came up 683 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:43,280 Speaker 1: with this, what thirty minutes before we did that show. 684 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:45,279 Speaker 1: It was pretty it was the day of it was 685 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:49,799 Speaker 1: not right before. But yeah, the school commercials featuring a 686 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:51,520 Speaker 1: lab and. 687 00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:57,520 Speaker 2: Dance music, not well dance slash music, so like a 688 00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:00,520 Speaker 2: science lab. So somebody looking into a microphone or something 689 00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:03,680 Speaker 2: into a patriotish and a situation in which somebody's on 690 00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 2: stage playing the cello or involved with ballet or whatever. 691 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:11,600 Speaker 2: That there was that a science and performing arts element 692 00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 2: of the same college commercial. 693 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 1: Eighteen total points. It wasn't your high scorer, but it 694 00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 1: was close, and it was definitely the most fun. Yeah, 695 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:26,000 Speaker 1: of all the things, you just sort of came up 696 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 1: with that. And every school has some kind of promotional commercial. 697 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:30,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean they don't have to use both of 698 00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:33,840 Speaker 2: those things. There are lots of commercials that don't. But 699 00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:36,080 Speaker 2: the fact is, if you're watching college football all day, 700 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:40,319 Speaker 2: there are enough colleges that want to stress. If you're 701 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:43,239 Speaker 2: into the sciences, if you're into performing arts, we got you. 702 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:45,040 Speaker 1: We got you covered. 703 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 2: And there were some commercials where there was like a 704 00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 2: ballet dancer in the lab yep to. 705 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:53,319 Speaker 1: It was very very weird that they would do. I 706 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:55,960 Speaker 1: think it was USC I might be wrong, Yeah, we definitely. 707 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,160 Speaker 1: And this was true of picks for both of our 708 00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:01,480 Speaker 1: both of our teams, both of our squads. There were 709 00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 1: definitely items that were already mainstays rather than unique to 710 00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:10,200 Speaker 1: the twenty seventeen season, and I don't know if we 711 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,600 Speaker 1: want to keep that or because you know, in previous 712 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:16,799 Speaker 1: years it was specific references to players and predictions and 713 00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,279 Speaker 1: stuff like that, whereas this year, you know, we each 714 00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:22,400 Speaker 1: have picks that are like, well, this has already existed 715 00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 1: and will keep existing. Like I know, last year, so 716 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:27,840 Speaker 1: twenty or one of the items was who's going to 717 00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:30,239 Speaker 1: be this year's Iowa? Right, I don't even think any 718 00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:32,560 Speaker 1: either one of us drafted it. Right, Yeah, it's correct, 719 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:36,800 Speaker 1: but that would have been super specific to twenty seventeen. 720 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:40,440 Speaker 1: Of all right, let's take something from twenty sixteen and 721 00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 1: move it forward, but we went in a slightly different direction. 722 00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:47,520 Speaker 1: I'm fine with it. Next year a top pick, and 723 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:49,799 Speaker 1: I don't know if it'll be the top pick, but 724 00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:53,400 Speaker 1: to your point, the backup being better than the starter 725 00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 1: will be a pick next year. Oh god, I can't 726 00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:59,879 Speaker 1: wait to hopefully draft that pick. All right. Your other 727 00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:03,920 Speaker 1: your sixth rounder was Brett Beilahman Fatherhood, which was kind 728 00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:05,560 Speaker 1: of a dud. That was your lowest scoring You had 729 00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:08,040 Speaker 1: one point on that, not a whole lot talked about 730 00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:11,480 Speaker 1: with Brett Bilahma and Fatherhood really screwed me by being 731 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:15,200 Speaker 1: very bad at football. Yes, very much. So, yeah, really 732 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:19,160 Speaker 1: did your last two picks, though, mm hmm, were the 733 00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:24,800 Speaker 1: reason that you won the Fantasy Things contest. Your seventh 734 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:28,080 Speaker 1: round pick was Sam Darnold's Draft stock and or Athleticism. 735 00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:32,759 Speaker 1: And then your last pick, which I believe was announced 736 00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:37,920 Speaker 1: by our friend Jess Smettana from Espianation, was a video 737 00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:40,480 Speaker 1: of a fan taking a loss poorly. Now with my 738 00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:42,799 Speaker 1: final pick, which also did well, and we'll talk about 739 00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:46,280 Speaker 1: here momentarily, I allowed everballer to come up and actually 740 00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:49,160 Speaker 1: make that pick for me. Oh yeah, I just let 741 00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:52,200 Speaker 1: somebody read it for me. Yeah. What I don't remember 742 00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:55,120 Speaker 1: is if you picked the video of a fan taking 743 00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:58,440 Speaker 1: a loss poorly on your own volition, or if you 744 00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:00,680 Speaker 1: allow Jess to just go up there pick something that 745 00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:03,319 Speaker 1: she liked, because if you want because of that, I'm 746 00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:06,320 Speaker 1: gonna have to file a protest. I picked the pick, 747 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:07,560 Speaker 1: you did. 748 00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:11,680 Speaker 2: I made the pick, and just like you know, Warren 749 00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:14,400 Speaker 2: Moon doesn't make the pick for the Seahawks when he 750 00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:17,719 Speaker 2: goes up on stage in the sixth round, Okay, Seahawks 751 00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:20,000 Speaker 2: still make the pick. So that's the way I went, 752 00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:22,279 Speaker 2: and your your choice is perfectly valid and it worked 753 00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:22,640 Speaker 2: out for you. 754 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:25,120 Speaker 1: A video of a fan taking a loss poorly is 755 00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:28,879 Speaker 1: one of those things that continues in perpetuity, doesn't matter 756 00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:32,560 Speaker 1: what season it is, certainly not specific to twenty seventeen 757 00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:35,680 Speaker 1: or twenty eighteen or twenty twenty seven for that matter. 758 00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:38,120 Speaker 1: You're always gonna have a video of a fan taking 759 00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:40,319 Speaker 1: a loss poorly. So that did very well for you. 760 00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:43,479 Speaker 1: And it should be no surprise that Sam Darnald's draft 761 00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:46,840 Speaker 1: stock was something that sort of ebbed and flowed throughout 762 00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:49,719 Speaker 1: the course of the year, just as draft stocks go, 763 00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:53,480 Speaker 1: but was constantly talked about because Sam Donald was clearly 764 00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:56,919 Speaker 1: the most interesting player on the USC Trojans football team 765 00:41:56,920 --> 00:41:57,279 Speaker 1: this year. 766 00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:00,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's fair to say. And by the way, 767 00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 2: did you see the video of the Georgia fan throwing 768 00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:06,120 Speaker 2: his TV Yeah for his balcony. 769 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:09,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, not a good financial decision. 770 00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:12,960 Speaker 2: There. There are some moments where I think to myself, 771 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:16,480 Speaker 2: should we be covering this sport? Is it healthy that 772 00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:18,960 Speaker 2: we're helping the sport stay popular? That was one of 773 00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:21,239 Speaker 2: those moments. But my god, what are you doing with 774 00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:24,480 Speaker 2: your life? Let's move over to my team. 775 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:29,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, now I'm biased because I picked them. Yeah, I 776 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:32,280 Speaker 1: think my team is more fun than yours. 777 00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:34,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, are you going to be like the Matt Lionerd 778 00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 2: after losing the national championship? 779 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 1: Well, we had the better team. I think I had 780 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:42,400 Speaker 1: the better team. Congratulations on that. I think I had 781 00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:46,239 Speaker 1: the better team. Okay. My number one pick was chip 782 00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:52,080 Speaker 1: Kelly coaching rumors, which only got six points. It didn't 783 00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:58,040 Speaker 1: even do as well as Monsoon games or PJ Fleck 784 00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:02,239 Speaker 1: rowing the boat at Minnesota. What I'm finding here just 785 00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:06,920 Speaker 1: looking through this, is that our first two rounds quite 786 00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:09,719 Speaker 1: literally sucked. What I have a problem with So I 787 00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:14,480 Speaker 1: can only see week sixteen, seventeen, eighteen nineteen. You didn't 788 00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:17,160 Speaker 1: receive any points for chip Kelly coaching rumors any of 789 00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:21,400 Speaker 1: those weeks. I know when, in fact, it seemed like 790 00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:28,000 Speaker 1: chip Kelly had coaching rumors around that time Florida UCLA, UCLA, Florida, 791 00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:30,920 Speaker 1: Tennessee not interested. I don't know. 792 00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:33,120 Speaker 2: I mean, even if you had all four of those 793 00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:36,520 Speaker 2: weeks covered though, with chip Kelly, you're not winning. It 794 00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:39,359 Speaker 2: just seems like that's more of a ten than a six. 795 00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:41,960 Speaker 1: That's me. Well, I love'm trying to give you points. 796 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:45,680 Speaker 1: We had someone who was gracious enough to keep score. 797 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:49,880 Speaker 1: I don't want to throw him under the bus. But true, 798 00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:53,440 Speaker 1: I do have questions about the methodology, and I do 799 00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:55,480 Speaker 1: have questions about whether or not I was jipped here 800 00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:58,680 Speaker 1: of a couple points. Do you think that I had 801 00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:02,239 Speaker 1: votes bust In from other states? There's a chance you 802 00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:04,880 Speaker 1: could have. I don't know. You need to file a 803 00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:07,839 Speaker 1: demo on this. I don't know you're gonna form a 804 00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:15,160 Speaker 1: fantasy things draft commission, voting commission, fraud. Okay, good, A 805 00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 1: softer Brian Kelly. Only seven points. 806 00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:21,120 Speaker 2: That's fine for me because that was more much more 807 00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:22,960 Speaker 2: of a storyline early on in the season, and once 808 00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:25,600 Speaker 2: as soon as they started winning, it was, oh, Notre 809 00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:26,520 Speaker 2: Dame's good. 810 00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:28,520 Speaker 1: If I told you before the start of the year, 811 00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:31,800 Speaker 1: whatever you pick any of like we had like thirty 812 00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:34,799 Speaker 1: five cards that we could pick. Mm hmm. If I 813 00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:37,120 Speaker 1: told you this card right here is going to get 814 00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:39,920 Speaker 1: you seven points, you take that, right? I think so? 815 00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:43,640 Speaker 1: I think so? Yeah? Seven points? A softer Brian Kelly, 816 00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:47,080 Speaker 1: he was softer. I don't know. I can't talk about 817 00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:50,160 Speaker 1: Notre Dame yet. I need a few weeks. Okay, we 818 00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:52,520 Speaker 1: can watch Quentin Nelson clips together, can't We We can 819 00:44:52,560 --> 00:44:56,600 Speaker 1: do that. Absolutely. Pick number three for me was Mike 820 00:44:56,600 --> 00:45:01,160 Speaker 1: Gundy's bullet. Mike Gundy's mullet got me sixteen points. Mike 821 00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:03,600 Speaker 1: Gundy's bullet sort of has taken on a life of 822 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:08,919 Speaker 1: its own. Surprisingly ever since I picked Mike Gundy's hair 823 00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:12,640 Speaker 1: wine in the very first year of our Fantasy Things draft, 824 00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:17,360 Speaker 1: My god, the Mike Gundy hair thing, just broadly speaking, 825 00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:19,719 Speaker 1: has really taken off on its own. 826 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:23,000 Speaker 2: You looked into the Fantasy Things Crystal Ball and thought 827 00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:27,360 Speaker 2: to yourself, Mike Gundy's follicles. That's where I'm attaching myself. 828 00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:29,759 Speaker 2: And I would argue, ty, because you know. 829 00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:31,360 Speaker 1: One of those things, one of the things that I 830 00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:33,279 Speaker 1: guess I don't know if it was draft eligible this year, 831 00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:35,840 Speaker 1: Like coaches dancing, right, we have you know, Dabo Swingey 832 00:45:35,880 --> 00:45:37,480 Speaker 1: in the locker room. We had Dino Baber's with his 833 00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:40,759 Speaker 1: like impassioned speech. So we always have like the coach 834 00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:42,719 Speaker 1: in the locker room video, and this wasn't locker room. 835 00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:46,680 Speaker 1: But when Mike Gundy ripped his shirt off, yeah, at 836 00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:49,320 Speaker 1: the I think it was a wrestling tournament or is 837 00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:51,919 Speaker 1: a pep rally of some kind with Mason Rudolph there 838 00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:54,279 Speaker 1: when he ripped his shirt off with that mullet I 839 00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:58,719 Speaker 1: was like, man, this dude is the mayor of Stillwater. Yeah, 840 00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:01,960 Speaker 1: he is full of mayoral just like I'm gonna do 841 00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:04,400 Speaker 1: what I want. And it was great. What a moment. 842 00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:07,840 Speaker 1: My fourth pick was Tom Rinaldi Tier Jerkers, which you 843 00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:11,480 Speaker 1: gave me crap for in the moment. Still do you didn't? 844 00:46:11,520 --> 00:46:14,960 Speaker 1: You didn't approve of this selection, but it is a 845 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:18,239 Speaker 1: part of the college football landscape. True, I'm disappointed it 846 00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:20,560 Speaker 1: only got six points. Okay, here's what I like about 847 00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:23,439 Speaker 1: this pick in retrospect. I'm still not a huge fan 848 00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:25,840 Speaker 1: of it because he's been doing this for like decades, 849 00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:28,839 Speaker 1: is what it feels like. I like that you didn't 850 00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:32,440 Speaker 1: word it, and this was I assume pure accident. You 851 00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:36,880 Speaker 1: didn't word it game Day tier Jerkers, No, you did strictly. 852 00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:40,239 Speaker 1: Tom Rinaldi's right, and I think it's gene wo Jahowski 853 00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:43,960 Speaker 1: is the other one who sort of does those feature tight. Oh, 854 00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:44,960 Speaker 1: I see what you're saying. 855 00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:48,560 Speaker 2: So the fact that you tied yourself to Rinaldi, who 856 00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:52,840 Speaker 2: obviously we love and treasure, I think hurt you a 857 00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:54,880 Speaker 2: little bit. I think this could have been like a 858 00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:57,839 Speaker 2: ten to eleven ish in there. But you're a man 859 00:46:57,880 --> 00:46:59,840 Speaker 2: of integrity, So you stuck by Ronaldi and didn't in 860 00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:02,400 Speaker 2: on it, meaning game day even though you didn't say it. 861 00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:05,880 Speaker 1: Damn, that's a good point. Okay, Yeah, uh, PJ. Fleck 862 00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:09,040 Speaker 1: rowing the boat at Minnesota somehow got eight points. I 863 00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:12,719 Speaker 1: did not see any instances of this throughout the course 864 00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:16,760 Speaker 1: of the year, So our scorekeeper who put this together, 865 00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:19,520 Speaker 1: thank you for the eight points. Without them, it would 866 00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:23,120 Speaker 1: have been a sixteen point gap between Dan and I here, 867 00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:28,120 Speaker 1: assuming all your votes are you know, accurate. But this 868 00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:31,080 Speaker 1: is not something that I expected to do as well 869 00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:35,239 Speaker 1: as it apparently did, and which is strange because if 870 00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:37,560 Speaker 1: this were to even get more votes, you would be 871 00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:40,600 Speaker 1: the first one to know as somebody who meticulously combs 872 00:47:40,680 --> 00:47:43,479 Speaker 1: through Minnesota Golden Gopher football games. 873 00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:48,920 Speaker 2: How can anybody dispute? I mean, you alone are goldiefan 874 00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:50,840 Speaker 2: number one. But yeah, I think it was all just 875 00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:54,080 Speaker 2: allusions to like, well, he's brought you know, he had 876 00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:56,920 Speaker 2: that mantro Western Michigan he's bringing over to Minnesota. But 877 00:47:56,960 --> 00:47:59,480 Speaker 2: there really wasn't in the same way that Western Michigan 878 00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:03,040 Speaker 2: received the tension for it. There wasn't that weekly acknowledgment 879 00:48:03,239 --> 00:48:06,680 Speaker 2: of their mantra. So you know, I thought it was 880 00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:08,399 Speaker 2: a pretty good pick. I figured it would have gotten 881 00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:09,279 Speaker 2: you another point or two. 882 00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:13,960 Speaker 1: My sixth round selection was Gus Johnson Freakouts thirteen points. 883 00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:19,480 Speaker 1: As much as staple, I think as your weird school commercials. 884 00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:23,799 Speaker 2: It's dependent on game action. That's the thing though. Those 885 00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:28,480 Speaker 2: commercials with the lab coats and the ballerinas or the 886 00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:32,400 Speaker 2: cello players, they're gonna air no matter what. Gus Johnson 887 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:35,879 Speaker 2: needs a huge moment late or overtime, or some sort 888 00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:40,560 Speaker 2: of game breaking or backbreaking or clinching moment to really 889 00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:45,680 Speaker 2: freak out. So I think that is an almost better 890 00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:48,480 Speaker 2: fantasy thing pick because Gus Johnson could just have a 891 00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:50,279 Speaker 2: dry spell in twenty eighteen, we don't know. 892 00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:52,680 Speaker 1: You don't know. He could do a bunch of blowouts 893 00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:55,399 Speaker 1: and that did pretty well for you, all right, New 894 00:48:55,440 --> 00:49:00,239 Speaker 1: Strength coach really paying dividends was round seven pick did 895 00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:04,080 Speaker 1: not materialize. I hated this pick for you two points 896 00:49:04,160 --> 00:49:06,279 Speaker 1: throughout the course of the year. They all came in 897 00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:10,280 Speaker 1: the early stage of the year. I will be adjusting 898 00:49:10,360 --> 00:49:15,239 Speaker 1: my strategy next year, yeah, hopefully not making picks that 899 00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:20,000 Speaker 1: are really weighted towards action at the beginning part of 900 00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:22,480 Speaker 1: the year. Josh Rosen in the Hot Takes is probably 901 00:49:22,520 --> 00:49:25,640 Speaker 1: a good example too. That was hot at the start 902 00:49:25,680 --> 00:49:28,960 Speaker 1: of the year, but as the year goes on, is 903 00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:33,160 Speaker 1: that something that will remain noteworthy? And in the case 904 00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:36,080 Speaker 1: of Josh Rosen, at least you had a little bit 905 00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:39,360 Speaker 1: more of a chance. But the New Strength coach paying 906 00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:42,160 Speaker 1: dividends is usually something to talk about in the first 907 00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:44,799 Speaker 1: month of the year, and in hindsight, not so much. 908 00:49:44,800 --> 00:49:46,400 Speaker 1: Week sixteen that's. 909 00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:49,839 Speaker 2: Almost much more of a fall camp with one week 910 00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:52,200 Speaker 2: two thing, even more so than just the first full month. 911 00:49:52,480 --> 00:49:54,480 Speaker 2: I was sort of banking on the Josh Rosen thing. 912 00:49:54,680 --> 00:49:58,319 Speaker 2: We live in a fiery political societal climate right now. 913 00:49:58,360 --> 00:49:58,839 Speaker 1: This is true. 914 00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:03,240 Speaker 2: Yes, I figured things would bubble up to certain points, 915 00:50:03,520 --> 00:50:07,720 Speaker 2: and mind you, they most certainly have that Josh rozen 916 00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:10,719 Speaker 2: would be commenting on them more, which he ultimately did not, 917 00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:14,960 Speaker 2: so proved me wrong, certainly. But yeah, the New Strength 918 00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:18,240 Speaker 2: coach is if this were a fall camp fantasy things, ty, yeah, 919 00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:21,000 Speaker 2: you would be Scrooge McDuck right now, that's what you 920 00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:21,400 Speaker 2: would be. 921 00:50:21,640 --> 00:50:25,759 Speaker 1: But yeah, that one's tough. I already saw that. I 922 00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:29,600 Speaker 1: think it's Jeremy Prewitt. We'll be running a more aggressive 923 00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:32,719 Speaker 1: defense with an attacking mentality. I saw an article about 924 00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:35,680 Speaker 1: that Krsy will be, they all will. There's never anybody 925 00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:38,719 Speaker 1: who wants to run a passive defense that doesn't just 926 00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:42,000 Speaker 1: one just one guy, just Bob YAKA, that's it, which 927 00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:43,040 Speaker 1: I wasn't prove it wrong. 928 00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:44,960 Speaker 2: And you know everybody said, no, he's much more of 929 00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:47,240 Speaker 2: a sit back, read and react. And I know Alabama 930 00:50:47,280 --> 00:50:49,640 Speaker 2: sort of runs that kind of thing too, But Jeremy Pruitt, 931 00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:52,560 Speaker 2: coming from Alabama most certainly now for whatever reason, wants 932 00:50:52,560 --> 00:50:56,640 Speaker 2: to do things differently attacking aggressive mentality, and that'll be. 933 00:50:57,040 --> 00:50:59,160 Speaker 2: That'll be a good pick if we do fall camp. 934 00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:00,520 Speaker 2: But man, that's tough. 935 00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:03,800 Speaker 1: And then my final pick, and I say my pick 936 00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:07,400 Speaker 1: with the full acknowledgment that I did not make this pick. 937 00:51:08,400 --> 00:51:11,600 Speaker 1: I am a man of the people, as you know, Dan, Yeah, 938 00:51:12,160 --> 00:51:15,040 Speaker 1: I'm the people's host here of this podcast. That's true. 939 00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:18,520 Speaker 1: I called the gentleman up on stage who poured over 940 00:51:18,680 --> 00:51:21,839 Speaker 1: the dozens upon dozens of draft cards that we had 941 00:51:21,880 --> 00:51:26,799 Speaker 1: before us and selected that Michigan State's twenty sixteen was 942 00:51:26,840 --> 00:51:31,440 Speaker 1: an anomaly. So Michigan State, you might remember twenty sixteen season, 943 00:51:31,480 --> 00:51:36,399 Speaker 1: they went three to nine, horrible year. And the talk 944 00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:39,880 Speaker 1: in twenty sixteen was that, well, yeah, this is just 945 00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:44,719 Speaker 1: an anomaly. Twenty sixteen, this is an anomaly. Mark D'Antonio, 946 00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:49,160 Speaker 1: good coach, kind of a rebuilding season for him, even 947 00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:52,960 Speaker 1: though it wasn't fully rebuilding season, but lost a lot. 948 00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:58,319 Speaker 1: This is just an anomaly. So my selection in the 949 00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:00,800 Speaker 1: final round here ended up being that Misschigan State's twenty 950 00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:03,640 Speaker 1: sixteen was in an omaly. I hated this pick when 951 00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:06,399 Speaker 1: it was made on my behalf won't behold Michigan State 952 00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:10,280 Speaker 1: wins ten games. They do win ten games. Brian Lawurkie 953 00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:13,200 Speaker 1: ends up being really good. Down to work. 954 00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:18,120 Speaker 2: You can make an argument of player of returning quarterbacks 955 00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:20,839 Speaker 2: that we've already seen place, not incoming freshman or red 956 00:52:20,840 --> 00:52:24,440 Speaker 2: shirt freshman that haven't played whatever. Brian Leworky is probably 957 00:52:25,320 --> 00:52:30,560 Speaker 2: in terms of expectations of growth and continued success, top 958 00:52:31,120 --> 00:52:34,960 Speaker 2: seven quarterback in the country. How easily, it's an incredible 959 00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:37,880 Speaker 2: story for that Michigan State offense. And certainly lose they 960 00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:41,600 Speaker 2: lose some on defense, coaching and player wise, but Michigan's 961 00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:43,759 Speaker 2: twenty sixteen, and by the way, as soon as you 962 00:52:43,840 --> 00:52:47,239 Speaker 2: put this out into the universe, as soon as you 963 00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:50,480 Speaker 2: know the energy came out of Hill Country Barbecue and 964 00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:55,759 Speaker 2: into the stratosphere. The Michigan Penn State game over. Yeah, 965 00:52:55,760 --> 00:52:58,880 Speaker 2: that's it, you got a little you put too much 966 00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:03,040 Speaker 2: goodwill to spar and wow, great bounce back here. 967 00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:06,280 Speaker 1: That pick worked out nicely. That got me thirteen points. 968 00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:11,680 Speaker 1: My top three were Mike Gundy's mullet gush, Johnson freak 969 00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:16,000 Speaker 1: outs in Michigan State's twenty sixteen being anomaly and You're 970 00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:19,560 Speaker 1: top three where the video of a fan taking a 971 00:53:19,600 --> 00:53:22,600 Speaker 1: loss poorly, Sam Darnold's draft stock and then the school 972 00:53:22,600 --> 00:53:27,799 Speaker 1: commercial featuring someone in a lab coat and some sort 973 00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:31,440 Speaker 1: of dancing sequence, you know, in the club with music 974 00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:32,440 Speaker 1: something like that. 975 00:53:33,080 --> 00:53:36,560 Speaker 2: Again, just on a stage playing the cello ballet, not 976 00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:41,839 Speaker 2: talking dance music. How would you adjust your drafting? How 977 00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:44,840 Speaker 2: would you adjust eligible picks in the future. 978 00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:48,359 Speaker 1: I like our picks. I don't have any issue with 979 00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:50,919 Speaker 1: anything in front of me here. 980 00:53:51,520 --> 00:53:54,040 Speaker 2: And well, should we have a commissioner? I think we 981 00:53:54,040 --> 00:53:57,480 Speaker 2: should Ooh, that feels right for a draft. And I 982 00:53:57,560 --> 00:53:59,840 Speaker 2: want to say, we have some friends in this city 983 00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:03,360 Speaker 2: that we're we could do anyway doing the show within. 984 00:54:03,280 --> 00:54:05,960 Speaker 1: So I'd like envelopes. I'd like a commissioner. 985 00:54:06,200 --> 00:54:08,840 Speaker 2: I'd like for you and I to be in suits, Okay, 986 00:54:08,920 --> 00:54:12,080 Speaker 2: I'd like, Yeah, I really want to go for it 987 00:54:12,080 --> 00:54:16,080 Speaker 2: with not prop comedy tie, but I want to make. 988 00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:18,719 Speaker 1: It official on a stage. Okay. If we're going to 989 00:54:18,840 --> 00:54:21,239 Speaker 1: charge people money to come see this tom foolery, we 990 00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:25,040 Speaker 1: need helmets with uh, you know, phones in them. And 991 00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:27,439 Speaker 1: what the hell is mel Kiper doing in August? Let's 992 00:54:27,480 --> 00:54:31,239 Speaker 1: get mel Yeah, okay, I would try to lean into 993 00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:37,279 Speaker 1: much more custom twenty eighteen things all right, that we're 994 00:54:37,280 --> 00:54:39,279 Speaker 1: not expect. We're always going to expect tear Jerker, We're 995 00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:42,560 Speaker 1: always going to expect the college commercial with you know, 996 00:54:42,600 --> 00:54:46,040 Speaker 1: performing arts and sciences. Whatever we're going to expect, you know, 997 00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:48,880 Speaker 1: probably myke gundyes mullet. Could you imagine if he shaves 998 00:54:48,920 --> 00:54:51,359 Speaker 1: the mullet, like, oh my god, season and it's draftable again. 999 00:54:51,680 --> 00:54:54,080 Speaker 1: But there are certain expectations where like this has been 1000 00:54:54,120 --> 00:54:56,200 Speaker 1: true of the past two years, the past nine years, 1001 00:54:56,239 --> 00:54:58,440 Speaker 1: the past fifteen years. I kind of want to get 1002 00:54:58,480 --> 00:55:02,399 Speaker 1: away from that. So basically early a wis Vunderkind could 1003 00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:03,840 Speaker 1: be a good pick for twenty. 1004 00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:07,680 Speaker 2: That's exactly right, yeaheah. Talking about his age and making 1005 00:55:07,800 --> 00:55:12,200 Speaker 2: comparisons to players on the team or to like celebrities 1006 00:55:12,239 --> 00:55:16,239 Speaker 2: who are actually older than Fau's offensive coordinator, having like 1007 00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:18,959 Speaker 2: an ongoing narrative of like, can a group of five 1008 00:55:19,040 --> 00:55:22,040 Speaker 2: team actually ever make the playoff if it stays at 1009 00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:25,839 Speaker 2: four games? That feels very twenty eighteen after you see 1010 00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:29,480 Speaker 2: f twenty seventeen, So I want to I want to 1011 00:55:29,600 --> 00:55:30,919 Speaker 2: lean into that a little bit more. 1012 00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:34,480 Speaker 1: All right, Well, again, this was fun. We did a 1013 00:55:34,520 --> 00:55:37,560 Speaker 1: live show around the Fantasy Things draft. It lends itself 1014 00:55:37,640 --> 00:55:40,680 Speaker 1: very well to a live event.

I had no preconceived notions about how and 1048 00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:48,360 Speaker 1: where people listen. I just assumed people listened. I guess 1049 00:57:48,360 --> 00:57:50,920 Speaker 1: I do have a preconceived notion how I listen to podcasts. 1050 00:57:50,920 --> 00:57:52,600 Speaker 1: We're just sort of walking around doing stuff around the 1051 00:57:52,640 --> 00:57:56,880 Speaker 1: house or commuting whatever.

Worrisome lead, worrisome lead. 1211 01:06:45,800 --> 01:06:46,960 Speaker 1: It's very worrisome. 1212 01:06:47,400 --> 01:06:51,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, so let's assume Kyle's not the Zodiac Killer. 1213 01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:56,000 Speaker 1: Not the Zodiac killer. Thank you Kyle for writing in Kate, 1214 01:06:56,080 --> 01:06:59,720 Speaker 1: the aforementioned Kate the name of my wife, not my wife, 1215 01:07:00,240 --> 01:07:03,160 Speaker 1: but Kate works on a turkey farm. She was the 1216 01:07:03,160 --> 01:07:05,200 Speaker 1: one who said that she listens in the Turkey house. 1217 01:07:05,240 --> 01:07:08,120 Speaker 1: She doesn't get cell receptions, so she'll download and then 1218 01:07:08,160 --> 01:07:11,160 Speaker 1: when she gets in the Turkey house, she'll listen, but 1219 01:07:11,280 --> 01:07:14,280 Speaker 1: not with headphones, which means that she is listening along 1220 01:07:14,320 --> 01:07:18,240 Speaker 1: with fifty two thousand turkeys. That's so strong to me, 1221 01:07:18,400 --> 01:07:19,600 Speaker 1: it's a strong contender. 1222 01:07:19,880 --> 01:07:24,600 Speaker 2: That's I mean over like gobbling and don't we have 1223 01:07:24,800 --> 01:07:27,160 Speaker 2: what is our turkey sound effect?

Yeah. I mentioned Cameron in the 1228 01:07:39,480 --> 01:07:42,240 Speaker 1: laser category because he said, oh, we have a couple 1229 01:07:42,240 --> 01:07:45,720 Speaker 1: of flyers. Well we do. Cameron flies around in the helicopter. 1230 01:07:45,760 --> 01:07:48,200 Speaker 1: He shoots laser at the lasers at the ground. But 1231 01:07:48,280 --> 01:07:50,760 Speaker 1: we also have Frank, who says that he loves listening 1232 01:07:50,800 --> 01:07:53,720 Speaker 1: to the show, listens to it every week at work 1233 01:07:53,760 --> 01:07:58,080 Speaker 1: while building he builds high powered lasers. So we've got 1234 01:07:58,080 --> 01:08:00,720 Speaker 1: both ends. Of the spectrum. Here cam And is shooting 1235 01:08:00,720 --> 01:08:05,479 Speaker 1: the lasers and Frank is building them. Damn, I love 1236 01:08:05,720 --> 01:08:09,280 Speaker 1: me some lasers. These are two strong contenders. The meat 1237 01:08:09,320 --> 01:08:12,439 Speaker 1: Inspector we talked about Cameron, the meat inspector before does 1238 01:08:12,440 --> 01:08:16,000 Speaker 1: the post mortem on the cows, sheep and goats. We've 1239 01:08:16,000 --> 01:08:21,360 Speaker 1: also got Jimmy and MIT. Holy cow, Mit, yeah, I've 1240 01:08:21,360 --> 01:08:25,880 Speaker 1: heard of it. Wow, Jimmy makes nanoparticles. 1241 01:08:26,760 --> 01:08:30,680 Speaker 2: I'm almost gonna take away points because he has his 1242 01:08:30,760 --> 01:08:34,400 Speaker 2: email said that he is listening at MIT while making nanoparticles, 1243 01:08:34,400 --> 01:08:37,920 Speaker 2: which can treat genetic diseases, along with a technical article 1244 01:08:37,920 --> 01:08:41,040 Speaker 2: that he authored. If you for one second and you 1245 01:08:41,080 --> 01:08:42,480 Speaker 2: wrote this, type, I wrote. 1246 01:08:42,200 --> 01:08:44,200 Speaker 1: This, I wrote this down on our paper that if 1247 01:08:44,320 --> 01:08:46,280 Speaker 1: for one second, yeah, go ahead read it. 1248 01:08:46,960 --> 01:08:49,120 Speaker 2: If for one second, this is me quoting Tye that 1249 01:08:49,240 --> 01:08:51,240 Speaker 2: I didn't read every word of it. You clearly don't 1250 01:08:51,240 --> 01:08:52,400 Speaker 2: know how nerdy I am. 1251 01:08:52,560 --> 01:08:55,000 Speaker 1: That's right. I read every word of the technical article 1252 01:08:55,040 --> 01:08:55,680 Speaker 1: that Jimmy sent. 1253 01:08:56,120 --> 01:08:58,320 Speaker 2: See, he's getting minus points for any because you should 1254 01:08:58,320 --> 01:09:00,679 Speaker 2: not be listening to something as stupid as the solid 1255 01:09:00,760 --> 01:09:03,640 Speaker 2: verbal while creating nanoparticles to treat genetic disorders. 1256 01:09:03,680 --> 01:09:06,200 Speaker 1: Come on, what are you doing? All right? Kelsey is 1257 01:09:06,240 --> 01:09:09,320 Speaker 1: a nurse in the delivery room and she listens to 1258 01:09:09,400 --> 01:09:10,240 Speaker 1: us on the night shift. 1259 01:09:10,680 --> 01:09:12,960 Speaker 2: I like this because this is also importance. But we're 1260 01:09:13,000 --> 01:09:17,000 Speaker 2: molding young minds. Yes, I'm okay with it. Yeah, okay. 1261 01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:19,280 Speaker 2: And now my two winners. 1262 01:09:19,000 --> 01:09:21,960 Speaker 1: Dan, how many winners are we awarding total? We'll pick 1263 01:09:22,080 --> 01:09:26,639 Speaker 1: three more from some of the ones that I just mentioned. Okay, 1264 01:09:26,760 --> 01:09:31,120 Speaker 1: mm hmm, but here are two in particular. Let's go 1265 01:09:31,400 --> 01:09:33,439 Speaker 1: and give a shout out and a T shirt to 1266 01:09:33,640 --> 01:09:37,679 Speaker 1: our boy Jimmy, who says that instead of paying attention 1267 01:09:37,880 --> 01:09:41,519 Speaker 1: to his teacher in physics class, he uses his third 1268 01:09:41,560 --> 01:09:45,360 Speaker 1: period to listen on Mondays to the weekend wrap up 1269 01:09:45,360 --> 01:09:48,240 Speaker 1: show and on Thursdays to the Picks and Previews. He 1270 01:09:48,439 --> 01:09:51,760 Speaker 1: has figured out the logistics of doing this, and here's 1271 01:09:51,760 --> 01:09:54,920 Speaker 1: what he says. I wear a hoodie so my teacher 1272 01:09:54,960 --> 01:09:58,200 Speaker 1: can't see my headphones, and so he doesn't get suspicious. 1273 01:09:58,840 --> 01:10:01,000 Speaker 1: I stare at him directly in the eyes through the 1274 01:10:01,120 --> 01:10:05,000 Speaker 1: entire class, so he thinks I'm paying attention. Because of this, 1275 01:10:05,960 --> 01:10:08,599 Speaker 1: I have a C in the class. Yeah it's fine, 1276 01:10:08,880 --> 01:10:11,040 Speaker 1: but that's just what they get for making me go 1277 01:10:11,080 --> 01:10:13,800 Speaker 1: to school. While I'm fired up about college football and 1278 01:10:13,920 --> 01:10:17,559 Speaker 1: watching the Todd Orlando led Texas defense dominate weekend and 1279 01:10:17,600 --> 01:10:20,519 Speaker 1: week out, except for when we played Kansas and they 1280 01:10:20,520 --> 01:10:23,519 Speaker 1: seem to oddly have our numbers. So Jimmy, he listens 1281 01:10:23,600 --> 01:10:25,880 Speaker 1: in third period, I think we can give him minghim 1282 01:10:25,920 --> 01:10:28,120 Speaker 1: props there, listen, this is all you need to know 1283 01:10:28,240 --> 01:10:31,599 Speaker 1: at equals a MA, you're good, you're straight. And then 1284 01:10:31,680 --> 01:10:36,000 Speaker 1: my ultimate winner, the Grand Poobah of God, all the 1285 01:10:36,120 --> 01:10:42,280 Speaker 1: stories that we got, this one wins. Okay, this one wins. 1286 01:10:42,840 --> 01:10:45,519 Speaker 1: Shout out to our boy Bill in the Navy. And 1287 01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:48,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna read a little blurb here, he says. I 1288 01:10:48,160 --> 01:10:51,639 Speaker 1: started listening to the verbal in the spring of twenty fifteen. 1289 01:10:52,320 --> 01:10:54,600 Speaker 1: In the fall of twenty fifteen, very early in the 1290 01:10:54,600 --> 01:11:00,720 Speaker 1: college football season, like week two, my submarine went to 1291 01:11:00,800 --> 01:11:05,639 Speaker 1: see scheduled to be out of communication for the entire season, 1292 01:11:06,600 --> 01:11:09,240 Speaker 1: he says. In case you're wondering, I was the executive 1293 01:11:09,320 --> 01:11:13,800 Speaker 1: officer think Denzel Washington from Crimson Tide, which I love. 1294 01:11:13,880 --> 01:11:17,280 Speaker 1: Thank you, oh yeah for the analogy. I saved up 1295 01:11:17,720 --> 01:11:20,559 Speaker 1: many of your episodes of the Solid Verbal so that 1296 01:11:20,640 --> 01:11:23,600 Speaker 1: I could listen while running on a treadmill hundreds of 1297 01:11:23,600 --> 01:11:29,960 Speaker 1: feet under the ocean in a submarine. Dan, Oh my god, Wow, God, 1298 01:11:30,040 --> 01:11:33,360 Speaker 1: that's amazing. I distinctly remember your interview with Kirk Farence 1299 01:11:33,400 --> 01:11:37,760 Speaker 1: Bronco Mendenhall on the subar. Communication was limited to incoming 1300 01:11:37,800 --> 01:11:43,120 Speaker 1: information only, just text with scores from games. When we 1301 01:11:43,200 --> 01:11:49,240 Speaker 1: returned to Port after the season, I downloaded each episode 1302 01:11:49,240 --> 01:11:51,439 Speaker 1: of the verbal that I missed. I listened back to 1303 01:11:51,479 --> 01:11:55,840 Speaker 1: them in chronological order, previews recaps every week. I relived 1304 01:11:56,280 --> 01:12:00,640 Speaker 1: Navy's excellent efforts to climb to gret heights in the 1305 01:12:00,680 --> 01:12:05,400 Speaker 1: polls through the podcast, and he says, the story gets better. Okay, 1306 01:12:05,439 --> 01:12:09,479 Speaker 1: I'm waiting. This is incredible. As I sit here writing this, 1307 01:12:10,560 --> 01:12:14,599 Speaker 1: realizing that your very popular podcast may have others who 1308 01:12:14,640 --> 01:12:18,120 Speaker 1: listen while on US submarines, I wanted to note that 1309 01:12:18,160 --> 01:12:23,440 Speaker 1: I am now on exchange. He's a grand transfer essentially 1310 01:12:23,840 --> 01:12:28,200 Speaker 1: uh huh huh with the Royal Australian Navy based near Perth, 1311 01:12:28,320 --> 01:12:31,200 Speaker 1: Western Australia. I've heard great things about Perth. By the way, 1312 01:12:32,560 --> 01:12:37,280 Speaker 1: as a department head at the Royal Australian Navy Submarine 1313 01:12:37,320 --> 01:12:42,280 Speaker 1: Force Headquarters, I routinely go to see on Australian submarines. 1314 01:12:42,560 --> 01:12:44,719 Speaker 1: And you guessed it. I listened to the solid verbal 1315 01:12:44,800 --> 01:12:49,760 Speaker 1: Underwater on Australian submarines as well. So if listening to 1316 01:12:49,800 --> 01:12:52,160 Speaker 1: the show Underwater on a US submarine while running on 1317 01:12:52,200 --> 01:12:55,120 Speaker 1: a treadmill isn't enough, I have now upped the ante 1318 01:12:55,520 --> 01:12:59,679 Speaker 1: while listening with Australians as well. Wow do you think 1319 01:12:59,840 --> 01:13:02,519 Speaker 1: do you think that when we do our breaking news 1320 01:13:02,560 --> 01:13:04,960 Speaker 1: sound and at the end I go boo boo boo? 1321 01:13:05,640 --> 01:13:08,040 Speaker 1: Do you think he thinks the radar is going crazy? 1322 01:13:08,120 --> 01:13:11,160 Speaker 1: Maybe maybe there's a change. I really hope so.
