And you know, I know everybody tried to 168 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 4: one up each other on radio and podcasts and stuff 169 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 4: like that, So I was okay with Lane addressing him 170 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 4: and he did it in a pretty respectful way. 171 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 3: Well, the word he used is this that sky code. 172 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 3: So when you call me that word, you know, like 173 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 3: in some areas of the world, that's a fight. Like seriously, 174 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 3: that's that word that he used. That's a fight. Man. 175 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 3: You can't call another man that, whether you're trying to 176 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 3: make some type of analogy, and he tried to throw 177 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 3: in the word commitment to say committed. Then say that 178 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 3: word because you call me that. No no, no, no 179 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,719 Speaker 3: no no, that's the See, that's the problem in the 180 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 3: era of you know where you know how that goes. No, 181 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,559 Speaker 3: he shouldn't go like that. Mike Tyson was famous for 182 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 3: saying social media and protection of podcasts made it okay 183 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 3: for people to say things without being punched in their 184 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 3: mouth for it. And I'm not I'm not advocating violence, guys. 185 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 3: I'm just telling you what Mike Tyson said because in 186 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 3: a high per billy way like that's what that's what 187 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 3: used to happen. You you call somebody something, you say 188 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 3: a word to somebody, they may actually excuse me, would 189 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 3: you say or can you repeat yourself? Or who you 190 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 3: talking to? Even in this business. That's just an ugly 191 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,440 Speaker 3: move for you to do. And you're right. The younger 192 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 3: generations some time trying to be cool, trying to be clickbait, 193 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,079 Speaker 3: trying to go viral, and that man stepped right to 194 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,959 Speaker 3: you and pulled your and pulled your card. But continue, 195 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 3: all right? 196 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,079 Speaker 4: And so I like the way he handled it. That 197 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,439 Speaker 4: That's that's the first thing. Correct too. I think everybody, 198 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:36,559 Speaker 4: not only that reporter or that podcast or whatever he is, 199 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 4: is taking things a little too far. Well, what about 200 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 4: his reputation? You know, what about this? He was supposed 201 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 4: to say something right after the game. Are they gonna 202 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 4: let him coach the in the playoffs? Is he gonna 203 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 4: take his whole you know, squad with him. That would 204 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 4: be horrible if they wouldn't let him finish what he started. 205 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:57,440 Speaker 4: If he's going to leave, I wouldn't go to l 206 00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,560 Speaker 4: s U. But I'm not the one making the decision. 207 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:01,959 Speaker 4: I wouldn't go to LSU just based on what I've 208 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 4: seen over the last ten years, how many coaches they fired. 209 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,920 Speaker 3: I'm not going to lu They don't treat their coaches good. 210 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 4: I'm not going to LSU after what they just did 211 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 4: to Brian Kelly. And another thing, why would you go 212 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:18,319 Speaker 4: to LSU. Now, if there's something sentimental, you're from there, 213 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 4: you used to live there, he went to school there. 214 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 4: One there's nothing you could do about that. If it's 215 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:30,719 Speaker 4: strictly about winning a championship, you're close to winning a championship. Now, 216 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 4: you're going to go to the playoffs. Once you're one 217 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 4: of twelve teams. Anybody really can win. I know you 218 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 4: some teams obviously have a better chance than others, but 219 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 4: I think you have a chance to win. He's beloved 220 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 4: where he is right now. And VJ. Take it from 221 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,680 Speaker 4: a guy who knows, because I've taken a lot of 222 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 4: jobs in my life, and I've had a friend of 223 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 4: mine that said, you've always looked for your job right 224 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 4: after you've gotten one, and you start looking right away. 225 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 4: The grass is not always greener. It's good to be wanted, 226 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:06,720 Speaker 4: it's good to have people come after you, but you 227 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 4: don't have to take everything. Sometimes it's better to stay 228 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 4: where you are. I think GWayne Kiffin would be better 229 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 4: off staying in Mississippi, but I don't think he's gonna 230 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 4: do that. I think he's gonna end up leaving for LSU. 231 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 3: And speaking of grass, I'll finish that saying for you, Alex, 232 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 3: you love this one. Your grass is not greener on 233 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 3: the other side. It never is. Your grass is greener 234 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 3: where you water it, right, It's never greener on the 235 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 3: other side. Never. 236 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 4: Now, if you go there and you water like you said, 237 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,720 Speaker 4: you want to move up, you know, right. 238 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 3: But if you want to go somewhere else and water 239 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 3: that grass better than you watered your own on okay, 240 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 3: so be it. That grass will be greener. But you 241 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 3: never look like right now. I want him to go 242 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 3: to the NFL. We talked about this last night. I 243 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 3: want him in the NFL. I do because I want 244 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 3: to see the competitiveness. I'm a guy in the sports stark, 245 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 3: radio and TV business. I like. I love competitive guys. 246 00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 3: That's why I loved Kobe Tiger, Serena, you know, Jimmy Johnson, 247 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 3: Like you know, I like people that just want to 248 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:06,080 Speaker 3: go out and annihilate and prove to the world that 249 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,440 Speaker 3: you know, I'm part of the best. I'm one of 250 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 3: the best in the matter, and if I win there, 251 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,679 Speaker 3: I am the best. Like I love that about coaches, 252 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 3: about players, just the whole scope of sports. And if 253 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 3: you're Lane Kiffin and you didn't it didn't go well 254 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 3: in the NFL before you failed, but you don't run 255 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 3: from that, and you have the opportunity right now. There 256 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 3: are three jobs that's gonna be available. Two are available 257 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 3: right now, and that's the Tennessee Titans, in the New 258 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 3: York Giants. Cleveland's gonna become available. My all, my all, 259 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 3: my people, everybody. I've talked to Miami close, the Dolphins, 260 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:40,319 Speaker 3: and I've been saying this on Hartman and Husky on 261 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,320 Speaker 3: the Ends, on Shaw on Sundays for the last two months, 262 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 3: So this isn't hyperbole. Have told me that McDaniel is fine. 263 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 3: That's why they fired the VP. They fired the GM 264 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 3: like they want. They believe it's more of a front 265 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 3: office issue and bringing in the right type of players 266 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 3: than the coach. Because the players like the coach, and 267 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 3: every coach that talks about them tells you how great 268 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:01,439 Speaker 3: he is. There's not a coach other than at Rex 269 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,840 Speaker 3: Ryan call it a nerd guy and then even apologizing 270 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 3: for that, saying I shouldn't have said that because he's 271 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:11,200 Speaker 3: from the fraternity I'm from, which is coaching. But there's 272 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 3: gonna be NFL jobs available. The Raiders job might be available. 273 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:16,199 Speaker 3: I really do question. 274 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,679 Speaker 4: You don't make any more money in the NFL than 275 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:19,439 Speaker 4: you do in God. 276 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 3: I don't. But I don't think it's about money with him. 277 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:21,679 Speaker 3: What is it that? 278 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,680 Speaker 4: Why would make such a better job? And by the way, 279 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 4: you're never gonna be loved in the NFL like you. 280 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 3: Are And don't think he cares? Do you really think? 281 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 4: Oh? I think that? 282 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,680 Speaker 3: No, no, no, hold up, that's not my question. My question 283 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 3: is can you honestly and safely say that he gives 284 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 3: off the type of personality that thinks that being cared 285 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 3: for and cared about. I don't think he gives a 286 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 3: damn about that type of stuff. 287 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 4: I completely disagree. You know what, who says the best 288 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,600 Speaker 4: Davosweeney from from Clemson? What how many times does he 289 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 4: get all sore and say, well, if you don't want 290 00:13:58,559 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 4: to be around and you know what I. 291 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 6: Saw? 292 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 4: But you know what, though, Kevin, Kevin Durant, you just 293 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 4: don't know it soft, but you just may not know 294 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,559 Speaker 4: it these look at look at Lake Giffin. He he 295 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 4: knew what some podcasters said, who's like twenty five years 296 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 4: old on some podcast that you and I never heard of? 297 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 3: You know what he said right right? Because because you 298 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 3: broke man code like you broke god code. Like we 299 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 3: both agree he handled it and he should have addressed it. 300 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 3: When you call a man of certain words, I have 301 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 3: every I have every ability and every right to confront 302 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 3: you about what you're called.

Though, they 331 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 3: don't get that type of access. And I tell you this, 332 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 3: they're not gonna go in there and say that word. 333 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 3: The pro level is a whole different ballgame. And he 334 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 3: just thought that he could just test like Kiffin. But 335 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 3: off of that, more to Lane Kiffin going to the NFL, 336 00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 3: and like I said, I don't know if he's gonna 337 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 3: do it. No one knows what he's gonna do but him. 338 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 3: His mind's already made up. 339 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:04,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, but what was the reason you why because you 340 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 4: want to. 341 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 3: Be at that you want to be at the highest 342 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 3: level in life. 343 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 4: Or is the coach of the Jets higher or more 344 00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 4: known than Lane Kiffin? 345 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 3: You know, Tennessee, that's not accident. That doesn't matter. It's 346 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 3: the NFL. It's the NFL. See, I think you're missing 347 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 3: my point of why I think he should go and 348 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 3: why I would love to see him in the NFL, 349 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 3: because once again, it's the highest level. Get to the 350 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 3: highest level. You might be known really well on local 351 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 3: or regional radio, but even if you go to a 352 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 3: national show, you might go, yeah, man, but I'm stuck 353 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 3: on the weekends or the dude, you're on the national level. 354 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 3: It doesn't matter what dammit or on it doesn't matter 355 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 3: what time. 356 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 4: I think Notre Dame is more known on a national 357 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 4: level than the Tennessee Titans. 358 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, but the Notre Dame job is not an NFL job. 359 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 4: It's a college I understand that, and I think that 360 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 4: college job is more known on the national job. But 361 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 4: that's what you just said. 362 00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no, it's about being on known 363 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 3: that I'm on the highest level. 364 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:02,840 Speaker 4: Okay, Then if it's all about just being on the 365 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:06,200 Speaker 4: highest level and all about ego, then I then fine, 366 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,600 Speaker 4: and then there's no argument here. Then that's what you're 367 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:10,479 Speaker 4: gonna want to do. If it's about your ego and 368 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 4: you think you have to be in the NFL, so 369 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 4: be it. You know, there's there's so many more per 370 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 4: perks in college that you get, especially private jets and 371 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 4: the alumni and just all kinds of stuff like that. 372 00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 3: No, I don't. 373 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:29,440 Speaker 4: I disagree. I think it's a better job. At least 374 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:31,679 Speaker 4: some of the jobs are better in college, and it 375 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 4: is in the NFL. 376 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 3: Now, I don't think there's a college job better than 377 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 3: any NFL jobs. Just simply, yes, I don't, because simply 378 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 3: it's the NFL, like it's the NFL brother Like that's 379 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 3: the point of trying to make Yes, the team's gonna 380 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 3: be bad. Hell, yeah, they're gonna be bad. They need 381 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:52,960 Speaker 3: a new coach. You think good teams of firing coaches. No, 382 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:56,399 Speaker 3: the team is not just Eagles firing. Good coaches have 383 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 3: to winning super Bowl. Well they did, all right, so 384 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,359 Speaker 3: they did. About super bowls is gonna get you fired? 385 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 3: Why the hell would I want to go to the NFL? Then, well, 386 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 3: college is gonna get you fired too. 387 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 4: That doesn't see Nick Saban and Alabama. 388 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, but Nick Saban want what six championships. 389 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 4: There all right to get fired? 390 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 3: Lane Kiffin is not. Lane Kiffin is not winning six 391 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,919 Speaker 3: championships at any college like that. Those days are overweight 392 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,680 Speaker 3: Nil and Chrance reportal those days are gone. That's why Nick, 393 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 3: That's why Nick tucktail and ran after Michigan sent him 394 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 3: home in a Rose Bowl. That's why he tucked out, 395 00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,480 Speaker 3: and he criticized that I l could You don't have 396 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:35,439 Speaker 3: total control anymore. So now it's a lot harder to 397 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 3: go on a run if championship. 398 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 4: If Lane Kiffin wanted to go to the NFL, he'd 399 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 4: wait to make that decision. He's gonna make the decision 400 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 4: now because he wants to stay in college. A lot 401 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:49,120 Speaker 4: of people have a lot of college coaches really have no, 402 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:52,240 Speaker 4: you know, ambition to go to the NFL. They don't 403 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 4: think like you do that it's on some highest level. 404 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:58,439 Speaker 4: I think that. I think college is just as good, 405 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,879 Speaker 4: if not some jobs, better than some of the crap jobs. 406 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 3: You know. With what college is is safer than the NFL. 407 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 3: And if you want to do safe, you're never gonna 408 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:12,119 Speaker 3: really grow. And Nick Saban's aren't growing on trees. Like 409 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:15,880 Speaker 3: look at the last twenty national championships, what's it five coaches? 410 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 3: Five to six coaches, like everyone's not When we just 411 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:22,160 Speaker 3: watched James Franklin, who consistently wins ten games, right, Winston games, 412 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:23,960 Speaker 3: sells out, gets you do a big Bowl game. You're 413 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 3: getting all that money in. 414 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 4: How many they stage coaches and have been real successful 415 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:31,919 Speaker 4: the first time? Not a lot, but not a lot 416 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 4: of them have the you know what? So are they 417 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 4: all sawting it? 418 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 3: Yeah a little bit? 419 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,199 Speaker 4: No, No, they just they just love they love the 420 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,400 Speaker 4: position they're in, right because it's easier, and they love 421 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 4: the freedom too. 422 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 3: It's more comfortable. It's easier and it's more comfortable. And 423 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 3: I think that's why college coaches, Yes, college coach, Hey, 424 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:52,360 Speaker 3: college coaches that go lookuick. Happened with Pete Carroll. Pee 425 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 3: Caroll was in the NFL, and I think he would 426 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:56,159 Speaker 3: a nine and believe that there was a nine and 427 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,119 Speaker 3: seven year with the Patriots somewhere, and then he had 428 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:01,640 Speaker 3: to stay with the gas.

He went back better, He went 434 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 3: back more prepared.

It is true. You just made 618 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 3: the point with ni L and transfer portal. It does 619 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 3: make it easier in college football to be more comfortable 620 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 3: where you are now because you can reload your teams 621 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:47,760 Speaker 3: because the kids are getting paid.

It's so, which means you're not on the 630 00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 3: recruiting trail as hard anymore. You're not wearing down your 631 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 3: body from city to city to city to city, sleeping 632 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 3: in kids brooms on floors and sleeping bags and all 633 00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 3: this stuff any because you know, you can hit the 634 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 3: transfer portal and grab a kid that's not happy where 635 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,120 Speaker 3: he is or from a lower school in the power 636 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,880 Speaker 3: file or power for bring him to your program, get 637 00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 3: him it. 638 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 4: And there's a lot of people that want people from 639 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:37,680 Speaker 4: the transfer portals. Also there's competition. There's a lot of 640 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 4: there's more competition for those kids than there's for college 641 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 4: senior or high school senior. 642 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 3: But my point I'm making is it is actually college 643 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:49,400 Speaker 3: is a more comfortable place. You just talked about being 644 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:52,720 Speaker 3: liked in the NFL and all this other college Right now, 645 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 3: the coach entry, the teams are panicking and fire.

But in the NFL you are 652 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 3: at the highest level. It is, it's very uncomfortable in 653 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:19,680 Speaker 3: the NFL. You don't have protect in college. And we 654 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 3: all know this college you can hide in the concoon 655 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:26,200 Speaker 3: in your rural little town right and not have to 656 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 3: You can ban people, you can ban people from press conferences, 657 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:33,720 Speaker 3: you can ban people from having access to coaches and players. 658 00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 3: You don't have to let freshmen talk to that. There's 659 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 3: total comfortable control in college. In the NFL, there's a GM, 660 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 3: there's a VP, there's an owner, there's a football operations, 661 00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:48,840 Speaker 3: and then the media can say and do or come 662 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 3: at you and have access to you on a level 663 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:55,479 Speaker 3: that you could control. In college. College is definitely a 664 00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 3: more comfortable coaching situation. Just because in the NFL. 665 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,560 Speaker 4: Doesn't make it a let's her job. I don't not 666 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 4: quite understand what you're saying. Just because something's more comfortable 667 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 4: doesn't mean that it's not work just on a total 668 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,720 Speaker 4: of a job in the NFL. And by the way 669 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 4: you're making a case, you're making a case for why 670 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 4: you should go to the NFL, not because it's not comfortable, 671 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:18,160 Speaker 4: but if you're gonna go ahead and get beaten up 672 00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:20,479 Speaker 4: and have to deal with crappy owners and deal with 673 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,800 Speaker 4: bad situations and deal with stuff that you really can't 674 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 4: take care of, sure, I would. 675 00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 3: Rather why it's more challenging. So what's more okay? So 676 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 3: then what's more comfortable? 677 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 4: Colin, I don't know if it's what more challenging or 678 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 4: do I want to be more successful? And let me 679 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 4: tell you that there's a lot more jobs that are 680 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 4: more challenging than ours, doesn't mean that's something i'd want 681 00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 4: to go ahead and be And by the way, being 682 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 4: national is not the highest job. Look at WFA N. 683 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 4: I would say that people that are WF an are 684 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 4: probably on the highest level when it comes to being 685 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 4: on a talk show. But there's people that do a 686 00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 4: podcast that are on the higher level, more or more 687 00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:58,720 Speaker 4: known than us. 688 00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:01,239 Speaker 3: So I miss my point. It's not about being known 689 00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 3: that we can. Boy, it's not about being known. I 690 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:04,440 Speaker 3: made that point already, so I'm not going to be 691 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:06,200 Speaker 3: the dead horse. At the same day, it's not about 692 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,680 Speaker 3: being known. I'm talking about just on the totem pole 693 00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:12,720 Speaker 3: of your profession. Like those people love us on our profession. 694 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 3: There there's but none not on national radio. No, that's 695 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:19,920 Speaker 3: not the point. Yeah, so they're just you didn't. So 696 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 3: there's college coach know you did? There's so there's college coaches, right, 697 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 3: there's college coaches that are more known than some NFL 698 00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 3: coaches correct a lot of All. Right, what's the higher 699 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 3: level though, that's the point I'm making, Arnie. A higher level. 700 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:32,960 Speaker 4: It's on the job. I think, like being the head 701 00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:36,080 Speaker 4: coach of Alabama is a higher level than being the 702 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 4: head coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars. 703 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:42,400 Speaker 3: What the character look something like that you might have 704 00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:45,720 Speaker 3: a point about Jacksonville, call about. 705 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:48,560 Speaker 4: You know something like that, just you know something like that. 706 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:50,200 Speaker 3: Let's move over in college man. We just got the 707 00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:54,720 Speaker 3: update from the SAGA. Texas now goes on and beats 708 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:57,240 Speaker 3: Texas A and M number three rate team was undefeated 709 00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:00,880 Speaker 3: leading to today twenty seven to seventeen. You asked me 710 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 3: last night about Underwood and manny man as numbers a 711 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 3: day fourteen or twenty nine. Not a good day at all, 712 00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 3: one saving nine it touchdown, didn't have the interception, So 713 00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:10,680 Speaker 3: there's that. But they do why is theer? They get 714 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:13,560 Speaker 3: nineteen carries for him for one to fifty five, no 715 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 3: touchdowns for him. That touchdown went to arch Manning on 716 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 3: the scramble. He had thirty five yards as long as 717 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:19,920 Speaker 3: thirty five yards excuse me, he had a fifty three 718 00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:23,360 Speaker 3: yard total yards on seven carries. So your thoughts on 719 00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:25,719 Speaker 3: Texas A and them they're guaranteed in European in the 720 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 3: college football player, What do you do with Texas at 721 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 3: this point. 722 00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:32,080 Speaker 4: As into well, right now they have to wait losses. 723 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:33,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, so we have to wait to see what shakes 724 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 3: out between so Georgia Alabama, right, does one of those 725 00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:40,800 Speaker 3: teams get pushed out if they get blown off the field, 726 00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:41,880 Speaker 3: So I don't think so. 727 00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:44,399 Speaker 4: I think there's you know, too many teams with three 728 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:47,320 Speaker 4: losses that I don't think I would jump them. Georgia's 729 00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:50,040 Speaker 4: got one loss, right right right, you know they're they're 730 00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:53,040 Speaker 4: gonna go in no matter what. I think that they 731 00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 4: don't have anything to worry about, and you know, just 732 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:58,080 Speaker 4: good victory against the Georgia Tech team. They had to 733 00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:00,040 Speaker 4: kind of grind that with out. That was a I 734 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:00,680 Speaker 4: watched a lot. 735 00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:02,840 Speaker 3: It was hard to watch. It was really weird. It 736 00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:04,480 Speaker 3: was tough to but it was weird to watch, right. 737 00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:09,520 Speaker 3: Neither team could really move the ball at all. No, 738 00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:11,000 Speaker 3: very strange, and. 739 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:13,919 Speaker 4: You know they played it. It did well, supposedly neutral site 740 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:15,640 Speaker 4: and all that. So no, I don't I don't. 741 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:16,920 Speaker 3: Think I can even agree with that at all. I 742 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:18,720 Speaker 3: have no idea why that was done. 743 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:20,640 Speaker 4: It should be out. I always said that, I always 744 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:23,040 Speaker 4: a fight with Chris Plank about that I hate neutral 745 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 4: site games, even though that's not really a neutral site. 746 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:28,400 Speaker 4: Alabama would pick up their third loss, but you know 747 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:31,360 Speaker 4: the fact that they're just Alabama, right, they would be 748 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 4: ahead of all the other three loss teams so I 749 00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:37,120 Speaker 4: would say they're still okay. I don't have like the percentages. 750 00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:39,839 Speaker 4: But remember they lost to like Florida State, they lost 751 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:42,279 Speaker 4: to Oklahoma, and Oklahoma is not going to be up 752 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:44,920 Speaker 4: against them, so I don't think they'll have any problem 753 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:45,680 Speaker 4: getting in anyway. 754 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, like you said, Bama's a big brand. I mentioned 755 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:50,759 Speaker 3: it last night. I'm all about brand, man, I am. 756 00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 3: When you get down to if you're gonna get me 757 00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 3: twelve teams, give me the twelve logical. You know, teams 758 00:35:57,640 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 3: that need to be there. I don't need Boise State, 759 00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:01,879 Speaker 3: I don't need SMU, and I'm not trying to knock 760 00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:04,279 Speaker 3: those programs, but we saw what happens to both of 761 00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,880 Speaker 3: those teams last year that had buys right, and but 762 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:09,120 Speaker 3: once they got on the field, we you know, the 763 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:11,279 Speaker 3: cream rises to the cream's gonna rise to the top, 764 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:12,960 Speaker 3: especially in the sport of football. And now that you 765 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 3: have a legitimate playoff with twelve teams, uh, you know, 766 00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:19,680 Speaker 3: I just don't see the outsider coming. 767 00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:21,560 Speaker 4: You don't want in the end, what you don't want 768 00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:25,960 Speaker 4: in college football is what makes college basketball the best 769 00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:27,279 Speaker 4: sporting event we have. 770 00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:31,600 Speaker 3: You know, I hear that about the NCAA tournament. It's 771 00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,880 Speaker 3: it's lost its luster to me a little bit. It 772 00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 3: just really hasn't. I think that's really because college basketball 773 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:41,319 Speaker 3: we talk about transfer portal nil right. These rosters. I'm 774 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:45,280 Speaker 3: a tar hill these rosters. It's a one hundred percent almost, 775 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:49,439 Speaker 3: I like, completely different roster right than it was last year. 776 00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:52,680 Speaker 3: And you're finding that in college basketball, and most people 777 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:54,960 Speaker 3: who are big football heads like you and I, they 778 00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 3: don't really attach the college basketball until about January February. 779 00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:01,319 Speaker 3: But by the second weekend in February, you're going into 780 00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:03,040 Speaker 3: the last week of the rivalry games, and then the 781 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 3: conference tournaments start before March Madness hits, so you don't 782 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,600 Speaker 3: really get a chance. In my opinion, just my only 783 00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 3: person being over the last five or six years, you 784 00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:14,160 Speaker 3: can't even tell me starting five from most of the 785 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:16,840 Speaker 3: top teams in the nation. And we used to be 786 00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 3: able to do that because kids didn't jump around. I'm 787 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:21,640 Speaker 3: not knocking in io and transferport I love it, but 788 00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:25,799 Speaker 3: I do think it's made college basketball kind of lose 789 00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:27,360 Speaker 3: a little bit of its March mad. 790 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:29,520 Speaker 4: Really, you could you could make a case the other 791 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:32,160 Speaker 4: way because more kids are staying in college for the 792 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:35,040 Speaker 4: nil money that they're not gonna get because they probably 793 00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:38,520 Speaker 4: won't get drafted, so they'll stay that third, fourth, fifth 794 00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:42,560 Speaker 4: year in college, get that extra money, and you'll start 795 00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:45,640 Speaker 4: to see that a little bit more. You know, the 796 00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:47,879 Speaker 4: elite will go, and that's just the way that is. 797 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:51,800 Speaker 4: But you'll see more of the you know, the fourth 798 00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:54,960 Speaker 4: and fifth starters stay instead of declaring themselves for the 799 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:55,760 Speaker 4: NBA draft. 800 00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:59,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, I wish I could agree with that. But if 801 00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:02,000 Speaker 3: that was the case, then why aren't we seeing better 802 00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:05,480 Speaker 3: rookies and better young players just come into the league. 803 00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:09,120 Speaker 3: We have a lot of young players NBA. Yes, yes, 804 00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:11,439 Speaker 3: I'm talking about the NBA. These kids are staying. Three. 805 00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:14,759 Speaker 3: Where's the third and four year college kid that came 806 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:17,719 Speaker 3: into the NBA over the last five to six years 807 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:20,160 Speaker 3: and just took the world by like he was ready? 808 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:21,759 Speaker 3: Right because he stayed in college All these. 809 00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:24,319 Speaker 4: Year of eighteen to nineteen year olds that are the NBA? 810 00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 3: Right, the last three? Are they ready? Last year's drafts 811 00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:31,400 Speaker 3: seemed like Flagg has had like two you know, I 812 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 3: don't want to say, you know, good games, but I 813 00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:35,799 Speaker 3: think he had the twenty seven point night. But other 814 00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:38,200 Speaker 3: than that, you put on a Dallas game and you know, 815 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:41,240 Speaker 3: Cooper Flapper, there's not a lot. 816 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:43,800 Speaker 4: Of room in the NBA considering of all the international 817 00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:46,920 Speaker 4: kids up the previous two drafts. 818 00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:50,400 Speaker 3: I just raided from, uh, the G League, not just 819 00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:54,680 Speaker 3: over overseas. Remember the G League nineteen keeps putting two 820 00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 3: or three kids in the Thompson the Thompson brothers won 821 00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:00,920 Speaker 3: that place for the Rockets, won the place for the Pistons. Yeah, Jayalen, Yeah, 822 00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:02,800 Speaker 3: Jalen Green, who was the number two pick after k 823 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 3: Cunningham coming from the G League, these G League night 824 00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:09,719 Speaker 3: teams and then like you said, overseas Zach Risha Sha 825 00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:12,160 Speaker 3: and then you had Victim Winbayama. You you know what 826 00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:14,800 Speaker 3: I'm saying, the top picks over the last two of 827 00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:15,760 Speaker 3: the last three drafts. 828 00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:18,879 Speaker 4: So right, But that's why I feel like college look 829 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:20,479 Speaker 4: like Arizonta had love. 830 00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:22,719 Speaker 3: Yukon went back to back. Think about you, Khon went 831 00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 3: back to back. Where where's where's one of those kids 832 00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:27,759 Speaker 3: from the Yukon team that's making on the team that's 833 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:31,240 Speaker 3: making up seriously making a huge impact in the NBA. 834 00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:35,680 Speaker 4: Caravan is like a fifty year senior. He came back. 835 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:39,319 Speaker 4: I think he could have declared himself for the NBA Draft, 836 00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:42,040 Speaker 4: but he wanted to come back and get the NIL money. 837 00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 4: So you know, it's stuff like that. Love for Arizona, 838 00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:49,360 Speaker 4: University of Arizona, played for four years, finally left. He 839 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,279 Speaker 4: wanted to go out last year. He just couldn't do it. 840 00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:54,560 Speaker 4: And he's had an unbelievable game just the other day, 841 00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 4: I think it was for Portland. He put up more 842 00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:59,239 Speaker 4: than twenty points.
