1 00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:03,480 Speaker 1: You are listening to The Dan Patrick Show on Fox 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:08,520 Speaker 1: Sports Radio Hour two on this Tuesday, Dan and The 3 00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:11,720 Speaker 1: Dane Stan Patrick Show. Most surprising thing to happen in 4 00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,080 Speaker 1: college football in the past week. Michigan beating Ohio State, 5 00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:22,440 Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley leaving Oklahoma, Notre Dame losing, Brian Kelly to LSU. 6 00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:27,360 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say it's Brian Kelly leaving Notre Dame. I 7 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:30,000 Speaker 1: thought this was a Michigan team that could beat Ohio 8 00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:32,519 Speaker 1: State the way they played, so I wasn't surprised. I 9 00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,040 Speaker 1: was surprised that they beat him up the way they did. 10 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley leaving Oklahoma not surprised. Brian Kelly leaving Notre 11 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 1: Dame very surprised at the age of sixty, and they 12 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 1: paid him a lot of money. He had accomplished everything 13 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:49,880 Speaker 1: that he probably thought he could accomplish at Notre Dame, 14 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:53,639 Speaker 1: and thought, hey, why not sixty years of age, You're 15 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,520 Speaker 1: gonna pay me that kind of money for ten years? Sure, 16 00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 1: I'm all in, ready to go about end stay awhile 17 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,639 Speaker 1: eight seven seven three d P Show email address DP 18 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,399 Speaker 1: at Dan Patrick dot com, Twitter handle at DP show. 19 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,320 Speaker 1: So we got an opening at Notre Dame don't have 20 00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:12,679 Speaker 1: any insight yet on that. Have reached out to a 21 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:15,199 Speaker 1: couple of people just to get an idea of who 22 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:18,679 Speaker 1: could be that person to come in. Isn't Luke Fickle 23 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:22,479 Speaker 1: at Cincinnati. Brian Kelly was at Cincinnati before he took 24 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:25,559 Speaker 1: the Notre Dame job. Luke Fickle is a Midwest guy. 25 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 1: Does he want to leave and go to Notre Dame? 26 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:32,480 Speaker 1: And if so, when do you have to leave your program? 27 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,959 Speaker 1: That's the other part of this that's unfair. I mean, 28 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 1: imagine if you're Cincinnati in the Final four and Luke 29 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 1: Fickle gets the opportunity of a lifetime and he's going 30 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 1: to have to leave before you'd play in a Final 31 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 1: four game going to happen recruiting. If Notre Dame hires 32 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 1: Luke Fickle, they want him there now. They need him 33 00:01:56,200 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: to recruit now. Brian Kelly his Twitter page, everything is 34 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 1: about LSU. It's been scrubbed of Notre Dame. Notre Dame 35 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 1: doesn't have a game. They don't play this weekend. They're 36 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:10,079 Speaker 1: waiting to find out who they're going to play in 37 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 1: a bowl game. These other coaches they got games. You 38 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:17,359 Speaker 1: may have a conference title game, recruiting is really important now. 39 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 1: One of Notre Dame's recruiters was out in a recruit's 40 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 1: home last night, walked out, found out they may not 41 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 1: have a job because Brian Kelly left to go to LSU. 42 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 1: Luke Fickle may have that tough decision to make. Do 43 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 1: I stay to see this through coach in the final four, 44 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,399 Speaker 1: or do I leave if the Notre Dame job is there. 45 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,640 Speaker 1: There's also the Oklahoma job to a lesser degree. A 46 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, I mentioned Cliff Kingsbury was a 47 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 1: name that I was told to keep an eye on 48 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,959 Speaker 1: of an NFL coach who might go back to college, 49 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:59,359 Speaker 1: might or use a job opening for leverage, which is 50 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 1: probably it's going to happen. But the Arizona head coach 51 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 1: was asked about the Oklahoma opening yesterday. Poor guess we're 52 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 1: saying that Oklahoma was interested. You've had a coaching job. 53 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 1: I wondering if you had a reaction to that, and 54 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 1: if you have mutual interest in that job. Yeah. I 55 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 1: don't get into those things. My sole focused last cop 56 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 1: weeks has been Chicago Bears, and after watching on Thanksgiving, 57 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 1: it needs to be because they're a really good football 58 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,919 Speaker 1: team and had a big win, and so that's where 59 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: my focus has been. Okay, good question, good shake off 60 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 1: by Cliff Kingsbury, a former quarterback escaping the pocket there, 61 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: and then he was asked this question, Yeah, Cliff, why 62 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 1: not just say I have no interest in the Oklahoma job? Yeah? 63 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 1: I just like I said, I think we're in season. 64 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 1: We're nine and two. Just not a tawber go on 65 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: a touch on right now. Okay, this is just semantics here. 66 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: If he says I have no interest in taking the 67 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: Cloma job and then he takes the Oklahoma job, then 68 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 1: we're gonna do what we did to Nick Saban when 69 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: he said I'm not taking the Alabama job and then 70 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 1: he took the Alabama job. Or the agent can't use 71 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 1: this like he left it open. He was vague enough 72 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: to continue the game. Because this is what's going to happen. 73 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 1: I believe Cliff Kingsbury is going to be up there 74 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: for Coach of the Year. He's gonna want to be 75 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 1: paid in accordance to everybody else at that level. He's 76 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: proven he's more than just a failed college coach, which 77 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 1: he was at Texas Tech, and you want to get 78 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:44,359 Speaker 1: that potential payday at Oklahoma to then say to Arizona, 79 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: what do you want to pay me? That's what I 80 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,679 Speaker 1: think is going to happen here. What I think Cliff 81 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: Kingsbury would want to leave Arizona to go to Oklahoma. No, like, 82 00:04:56,680 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 1: you're playing well, you got good quarterback, You've got a 83 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: good team, got a chance to win the division, got 84 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: a chance for home field advantage. There's a lot of 85 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: things going on here. Unless he views himself as a 86 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: college coach and you're going into the SEC. If you 87 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 1: said it was standalone, then I would say, okay, Oklahoma 88 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: is a lot more attractive going into the SEC. That 89 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 1: wouldn't attract me. And I do think, and I've said 90 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 1: this yesterday and I repeated today, that Lincoln Riley didn't 91 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 1: want to go to the SEC. And Barry Trammell, the 92 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 1: columnist for the Oklahoma and said it yesterday. If Oklahoma 93 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 1: didn't go to the SEC, Lincoln Riley would probably still 94 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 1: be at OU. That's why I think he went to USC. Hey, 95 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,279 Speaker 1: I can get this, and I can coach in the 96 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:55,599 Speaker 1: Pac twelve. Why not? Here's Lincoln Riley yesterday at his 97 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 1: introductory press conference. I can promise you that You're going 98 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 1: to get the best out of myself. You're gonna get 99 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: the best out of our staff, out of our players. 100 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 1: We're gonna put something on that field that you're proud of. 101 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 1: And I agree, Chairman Crusoe. This place is going to 102 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 1: be full. This is going to be the mecca of 103 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 1: college football. Okay, I'm not sure it needed a round 104 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 1: of applause there, but okay, this place is going to 105 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:27,040 Speaker 1: be full. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Yeah, let's get him back. Yeah. 106 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 1: Scott Van Pelt had Lincoln Riley on last night on 107 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: Sports Center. When did this opportunity present itself to you, 108 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 1: Lincoln in a way that it was real enough that 109 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:41,799 Speaker 1: you really had to ponder what you were going to do? Yeah, 110 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:46,040 Speaker 1: very early Sunday morning, uh UFC engaged with some interest 111 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: and want to have a conversation. And honestly Scott's first 112 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 1: conversation and at any point in my time at Oklahoma 113 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 1: that I've ever had with another football team. But I 114 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 1: think just the history, the tradition, the excitement of the 115 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 1: new fraternity was enough that we wanted to have that 116 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 1: conversation and it moved quickly. Okay, do I think it's 117 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: his first conversation? Yeah, his agents. First conversation, No man, 118 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 1: Peas pushed him a little bit though, well he was like, 119 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 1: wait a minute here really well, well you know, in 120 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 1: second thought, maybe it was on Saturday. Well wait you 121 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 1: had a game on Saturday. Yeah. Yeah, this is semantics here, 122 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 1: and this is the game you gotta play. You gotta 123 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: be really good when you go to the press conference, 124 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 1: and you got to kind of shake it off. And 125 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: then unless you go Mike Tomlin, unless you just say 126 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: this is ridiculous, I am not leaving, not interested, none 127 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: of that scorched earth. Yes, don Would it be unfair, 128 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: unfair or inappropriate to ask him I notes the introductory 129 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 1: press conference and it's all rab rod. You want to 130 00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 1: get on his good side if you're covering USC to 131 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: ask him how to visit running to USC as far 132 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 1: as running away from the SEC, just to see what 133 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: he would say to it. You can ask it. I mean, 134 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: good luck if you if you say you know how 135 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 1: much of the challenge of moving you know, the hurdle 136 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 1: of moving to the SEC or whatever, how you ever 137 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: want to phrase that, you could probably get him to say, look, 138 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 1: I didn't want to go to the SEC. I liked 139 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 1: where we were in the Big twelve. I don't think 140 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 1: he's going to say, Man, I was scared of the SEC, 141 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: that's why I'm going to USC. That ain't happening. I mean, 142 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: you could ask him, and you might do it just 143 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 1: to get him to say something that headline worthy. But 144 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: I don't think that's happening. And look, I don't know that. 145 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 1: I'm just saying that. I don't. It felt like he 146 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 1: didn't want to go to the SEC, but you also 147 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:54,080 Speaker 1: have to want to go to USC, and I think 148 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 1: it was just the combination of both of those. It 149 00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: made sense for him at this time. Yeah. Yeah, Lincoln 150 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 1: Riley were asked that question about the SEC, he would 151 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:04,200 Speaker 1: shake it off and say I look forward to facing 152 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 1: them in the National title Game. I can't wait to 153 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,680 Speaker 1: play at SEC school. To win USC is the national 154 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 1: title game. You just spin those around. He would never 155 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 1: admit it. Coaching hires in college football are unpredictable. Winning 156 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: the Press Conference is one thing, but it's really about 157 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 1: getting recruits. And now that Lincoln Riley has left Oklahoma 158 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: for USC, Brian Kelly leaving Notre Dame for LSU, other 159 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 1: schools are now scrambling because Oklahoma and Notre Dame are open, 160 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,839 Speaker 1: so their coach one of these schools, their coach is 161 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: going to take the Notre Dame job, and somebody else 162 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: is going to take the Oklahoma job, and then somebody's 163 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 1: going to take their jobs at their respective schools. You 164 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 1: don't want to be left out. Musical chairs, that's what 165 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: this is about. Music stops and do you have a 166 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 1: seat to sit on? And the money that these coaches 167 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 1: are getting is bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger, 168 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: and the value of a winning program is worth it. 169 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 1: Whatever Nick Saban's getting at Alabama, he's underpaid. But sometimes 170 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: you go, hey, here's ten years. It's way too long, 171 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 1: But that's how you got Brian Kelly. Here's like I 172 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 1: look at Max Scherzer's deal. It's three years, okay, three 173 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 1: years at over forty million dollars, but it's only three years. 174 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 1: I thought he wanted five. He got three, and he's 175 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: gonna get paid. But I don't want to give you 176 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:31,440 Speaker 1: ten years. But this is what the Raiders had to 177 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 1: do to get John Gruden ten years. Woo Hooles went 178 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 1: to the Angels ten years, long time, and that coach. 179 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:49,559 Speaker 1: I know there's buy ounce, but now what happens, who's 180 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,959 Speaker 1: going to take the Ocloma job? And then what opening 181 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 1: is going to be left there? Who's taking the Notre 182 00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 1: Dame job? Could Luke Fickle leave since Finnati in the 183 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 1: next twenty four to forty eight hours, Let's just say 184 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 1: he's the leading candidate at Notre Dame. Notre Dame's gonna 185 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 1: hire you recruiting, they don't want to Wait, Hey, l s, 186 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 1: you just got Brian Kelly. Why can't we get you 187 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 1: from Cincinnati? If it's Luke Fickle, you're gonna want him now? 188 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 1: Can you leave a team that's in the final four 189 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 1: and has the conference championship game coming up this weekend 190 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 1: against Houston? But this is this is the game that's 191 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 1: played in college football. Yeah, I'm clode, not that you 192 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 1: would have an answer, But do you think Luke Fickle 193 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: would still coach the Cincinnati bart I don't. If I'm 194 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 1: Notre Dame, we hire you. Come on in because you 195 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 1: got to hit the recruiting trail. Now you're gonna be 196 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 1: in a bowl game Notre Dame. No. If one team 197 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: slips up, Notre Dame slips in. And I'm rooting for 198 00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 1: that now because Brian Kelly to go to LSU, like, okay, 199 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 1: and now you go and you're playing for a championship, 200 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:11,080 Speaker 1: something that he probably thinks he has a better chance 201 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 1: at LSU of winning a championship. And imagine if one 202 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 1: of these teams, if Alabama loses, Notre Dame may get in. 203 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:28,320 Speaker 1: And I'm rooting for Chaos. I am hell yes, yeah, see. 204 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 1: I just love how awkward today got for Luke Fickle 205 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 1: when he did nothing. He just like, it's just winning 206 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 1: games and doing well. And hey, coach, how you doing 207 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 1: anything new? Well? Your meeting still on at ten thirty, coacher, 208 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: he's getting those questions there. There's a lot of coaches 209 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 1: who are going to get questions today, certainly about Notre Dame. 210 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 1: And here's the other thing. There's gonna be a lot 211 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: of conversation in compensation for college coaches and how much 212 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 1: they get paid. Mel Tucker, who's done nothing at Michigan State, 213 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 1: got paid. And I thought, Okay, here's the dominoes, because 214 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 1: everybody's gonna look around and go, wait, he's been there 215 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 1: two years, he's sixteen and thirteen or something. Jim Harball 216 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: might get a raise. I mean, I don't think anything 217 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,439 Speaker 1: is out of the question anymore so when Mike Florio 218 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 1: puts it out on Pro Football Talk, Hey, Urban Meyer, 219 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 1: Notre Dame question Mark. I can't sit there and go no, 220 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 1: because these things happen. Would you leave Jacksonville for Notre Dame? 221 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 1: I would, but then I don't want to leave halfway 222 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 1: through my first year. But this is you know, these 223 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 1: coaches do it. This is what happens. They don't think 224 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:55,840 Speaker 1: anything of this. Yes to Clemson's on the decline? Is 225 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,199 Speaker 1: that something that Dabbo would Notre Dame have an interest 226 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 1: in him? Was Dabo just waiting for the Obama job 227 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 1: to come at some point? Clemson's only had one bad year? No, 228 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 1: but it's it's a pretty big drop from what we're 229 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 1: used to in previous years. We wouldn't be at least 230 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:13,719 Speaker 1: someone they would look at or talk to him though. No, No, 231 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 1: but I wouldn't look at Clemson on the decline. Bad 232 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 1: year for them, absolutely, And he's not Notre Dame. But 233 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give him a you know, a hall pass here. Yeah. See, 234 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: Notre Dame was four and eight like two years ago 235 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:33,720 Speaker 1: or something like that, you know, three years ago. Yeah, Paul, 236 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 1: you all get one of those, though, you don't get 237 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 1: back to back Hall pass years. What at LSU, you 238 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: guys like Jean Chiswick and those guys at Auburn, you 239 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 1: get one of those years. All right, we'll talk to 240 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 1: Marcus Spears, former NFL player, works for the Mother's Ship 241 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 1: and went to LSU and get his thoughts on these 242 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 1: coaching hires and the mess that is the Seahawks three 243 00:14:55,880 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 1: and eight Washington football team, you know, the team that 244 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 1: still have a chance for that seventh seed. I mean, 245 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 1: if you don't, it's it's almost like making March Madness 246 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 1: sixty eight teams. Like it feels like everybody has a chance. 247 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 1: That's the way it is in the NFL. It feels 248 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 1: like there's three or four teams that don't have a 249 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 1: chance for the seventh seed. The Falcons do, the Washington 250 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 1: football team though, I mean, these aren't good teams. Yeah, McClement, 251 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 1: I heard an argument, when do you say Russell Wilson, Well, 252 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: at three and eighth, the Seahawks are not totally out 253 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: of it because they could go to rud and go Okay, 254 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 1: if they're not out of it, then the Jets aren't 255 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: out of it. Well, the NFC particularly, Yeah, it's bad well, really, 256 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 1: why the body that seven spot. I'll see if the fcs. Okay, yeah, 257 00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 1: it could be. Hey, maybe the Jets. Are you saying 258 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 1: the Jets have hope? Is that what I'm here? No? No, 259 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 1: they don't. All right, let me take a break and 260 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 1: we'll get phone calls coming up.

But first of all, Dan Patrick, let me 299 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:22,000 Speaker 1: say this, man, I'm almost I'm almost in kid framed 300 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,479 Speaker 1: you a legend to me, brother, So thank you for 301 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:27,399 Speaker 1: having me man Like, I gotta say that before we 302 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: get into this interview.

Don't nobody text me. I'm not 305 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,359 Speaker 1: responding anything. I'm about to talk to the legend. What's up, 306 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 1: my brother, And thank you for reaching out or trying 307 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 1: to reach out to say congratulations for the Hall of Fame. 308 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,639 Speaker 1: I did get that message, so thank you. That was 309 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 1: very nice of you. All Right, so let now you 310 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: got to remove yourself from LSU and you got to 311 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,679 Speaker 1: be an analyst here. The best college opening is USC 312 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:05,679 Speaker 1: Notre Dame Ellen Shoer, Oklahoma. It's LSU DN And listen, 313 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 1: here's the reason. Okay, because I want to be on 314 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 1: the West coast in that beautiful sunshine where you get 315 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 1: daylight for a long period of time, you don't have 316 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,199 Speaker 1: to wake up super early. Being a guy from the 317 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 1: South and on the East Coast. But here's the bottom line. 318 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 1: Three coaches have won national championships at LSU, so we 319 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 1: all know that it's doable. That's number one. Number two 320 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,920 Speaker 1: is you in the center of where all of these 321 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 1: five stars, all of these big time players come from. 322 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 1: And then the state of Louisiana, which I don't think 323 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 1: gets enough credit for how many really really good players 324 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:44,879 Speaker 1: come out of that state as well. And then too 325 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 1: when you think about Brian Kelly and you think about 326 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 1: his move, but more importantly you think about LSU and 327 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 1: where it is. Obviously people say, well, Nick saban is 328 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 1: at Alabama, why would you want to go coach there 329 00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 1: two years ago in twenty nineteen, and Ojen roy fielded 330 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,520 Speaker 1: are good eno team to beat Alabama? It's very few 331 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:06,800 Speaker 1: places that you realistically believe that you can do that, 332 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:09,439 Speaker 1: and LSU was one of those. So that's why I 333 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 1: feel like it's a better job out of him. And 334 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,919 Speaker 1: for a coach to leave Notre Dame and go to 335 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:19,160 Speaker 1: LSU should tell you what the number one coaching job 336 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 1: he is in the country. Well, I also think that 337 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,399 Speaker 1: Brian may have thought, let me be the all time 338 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 1: leader in victories at Notre Dame. I've done everything I 339 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 1: could possibly do, and it's quite a resume there. And 340 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,639 Speaker 1: he turned sixty and I don't know if this is 341 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,439 Speaker 1: a midlife crisis, but he's probably had You gave him 342 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 1: an offer that he couldn't refuse and probably said, Hey, 343 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 1: I'm going to pull the rip cord and I'm gone there. 344 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 1: And I understand Lincoln Riley as well, going to USC 345 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:52,359 Speaker 1: with Oklahoma coming to the SEC. I would want to 346 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 1: be in a conference where I thought I could stand alone, 347 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:57,679 Speaker 1: and Oklahoma did that in the Big twelve, and I 348 00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 1: think he's going to do that in the Pac twelve. Yeah, 349 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:04,159 Speaker 1: Lincoln made a phenomenal choice. And then too when you 350 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 1: start thinking about what he's been able to do from 351 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 1: an offensive standpoint, I know it's been saying a lot. 352 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:13,440 Speaker 1: The quarterback at Alabama's from California. The quarterback at Old 353 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:18,119 Speaker 1: Missus from California. So Lincoln Riley has enough named cache. 354 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 1: He has two former Heisman Trophy winners and to former 355 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 1: number one overall draft picks. You don't think he's gonna 356 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:27,120 Speaker 1: sit in a quarterback house and that's gonna be enticing 357 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 1: to stay at home in California and had the potential 358 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 1: of doing that at USC, and then too, that program 359 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 1: outside of Pete Carroll is looking for in recent history, 360 00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: is looking for the next staple, and I believe Lincoln 361 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 1: thinks that he can make that type of impact and 362 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:50,200 Speaker 1: potentially become the guy that becomes synonymous with USC football, 363 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:54,720 Speaker 1: And so all of those things are aligned for him. 364 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:58,879 Speaker 1: Not to mention, Look, he was phenomenal at Oklahoma, but 365 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 1: Bob Stoups is gonna you remember that Oklahoma. We know 366 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 1: Barry Switcher is going to be remembered as the guys 367 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 1: at the University of Oklahoma. Lincoln Riley has a chance 368 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 1: to go to USC and really carve out a niche 369 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 1: of being one of those names, like I said before, 370 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:16,880 Speaker 1: DP as synonymous not only with the ability to bring 371 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: that program back to where they once were with Matt Lioner, 372 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 1: that Reggie Bush and all of those guys, but also 373 00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:26,439 Speaker 1: be the young coach that can be there for a 374 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,439 Speaker 1: long time and continue that cycle going out there on 375 00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 1: the West Coast. I thought it was a tremendous move 376 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 1: for him. I would have loved to have let me 377 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 1: say this, I would have loved to have Lincoln Riley 378 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 1: at LSU as a fan because of his offensive prowess, 379 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 1: and that's something that we saw with Joe Burrow that 380 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 1: could take hold at LSU. But Brian Kelly Man, it 381 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:49,359 Speaker 1: may not be sexy, it may not make you throw 382 00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 1: a parade, but if you really deep dive into the 383 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: substance of it, Man got a seventy five when it 384 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,920 Speaker 1: percentage over his coaching career. That ain't nothing to shake 385 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 1: a stick at. And he is gonna be afforded better 386 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 1: players probably than any time ever in his career to 387 00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 1: recruit and have the chance to put out there on 388 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 1: the field. Yeah, it's not a bad consolation price for LSU. 389 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:14,159 Speaker 1: You played for Nick Saban at LSU for four years. 390 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 1: Did you have any idea at the time that coach 391 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,280 Speaker 1: would go down in history perhaps it's the greatest college 392 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 1: football coach of all time. Hell no, DP, I didn't 393 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:29,400 Speaker 1: know who Nick Saban was. I hadn't watched a Michigan 394 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 1: State football game ever in in my life. And it 395 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:36,400 Speaker 1: really came down to them in Miami, and Miami obviously 396 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:40,919 Speaker 1: was the program. My freshman year they won the national championship. 397 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,879 Speaker 1: That was with the phenomenal team with Ken Dorsey and 398 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,919 Speaker 1: Sean Telly and John Deville, all of those guys, and 399 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,439 Speaker 1: I'm sitting there as a freshman at LSU saying, damn, 400 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 1: I could have been a national champion in my freshman 401 00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 1: year in college. But I just I knew this about 402 00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 1: Nick Saban through the recruiting process and then through my 403 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: first year of playing, because our first year we had 404 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 1: a really good My freshman year had a really good season, 405 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 1: winning played in the Sugar Bowl against Illinois one I 406 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:10,440 Speaker 1: think ten or eleven games that year. But you could 407 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:14,879 Speaker 1: see that, let me say that, you could believe that 408 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 1: what he was giving us, what he was teaching us, 409 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 1: how he was setting us up. If it didn't lead 410 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 1: to winning, if it didn't lead to a national championship, 411 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 1: I clearly couldn't figure out what the hell you needed 412 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:29,920 Speaker 1: to do in order to win one because the level 413 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,919 Speaker 1: of attention to detail the coaching staff that he put together, 414 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:36,880 Speaker 1: and not to mention DP, jimbo Fisher was on that staff, 415 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 1: Will must Champ was on that staff, Kirby Smart was 416 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:43,199 Speaker 1: on that staff. Derek Dooley was on that staff. Like 417 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,399 Speaker 1: so it. Adam Gates was a was a was a 418 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:51,159 Speaker 1: was a what you call the guys the assistant a 419 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 1: grand assistant a GA on that team. So it was 420 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:58,480 Speaker 1: at the time we had no idea that these guys 421 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 1: would turn out to be this way. But we knew 422 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,679 Speaker 1: we had good coaches. We knew that every game we 423 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,480 Speaker 1: played in we felt prepared and had a chance to win, 424 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,479 Speaker 1: and eventually acculminated and winning the national championship my junior year. 425 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:14,440 Speaker 1: But I had we had no idea that Nick Say. 426 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 1: We didn't know who Nick Say was. But at this too, 427 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 1: for all of the questions about will Brian Kelly fit 428 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 1: in DPU, and I know it, everybody listened. You win, 429 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,159 Speaker 1: you fit in. I don't give a damn who you 430 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 1: are or where you come from. If you win, you 431 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 1: fit into whatever coach it needs to be fitted into, 432 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:36,439 Speaker 1: he said. Marcus Spears, former NFL player, ESPN analyst. You 433 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 1: can see him money through Friday at for Eastern with 434 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:44,440 Speaker 1: NFL Live with Dan Orlovsky, Ryan Clark, keyshan Mina Kimes 435 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:47,120 Speaker 1: and uh He's also on Get Up, First Take week 436 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 1: days on ESPN. I was watching last night with Russell Wilson. 437 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:55,640 Speaker 1: You know, a year ago, they're twelve and four, Marcus, 438 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 1: and we're letting Russ cook. People are talking about MVP 439 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,920 Speaker 1: now there's three and eight. I was just gonna end. 440 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 1: Russ is out of there VP. You could see it. 441 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:10,920 Speaker 1: I even said it this morning, man, when I was 442 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:14,640 Speaker 1: doing it up. Is when you like the tone in 443 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 1: that press conference after the game said a lot to 444 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 1: me emotionally, it looks like Russia's spent. It looks like 445 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,800 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll spent and listen, it's been a great running 446 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,200 Speaker 1: but things run their course. You know, I'm an LSU fan. 447 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 1: When it was time for Less miles go, it was time. 448 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 1: It didn't mean that he didn't have amount of success 449 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 1: at LSU, but it was time to go. And that's 450 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:40,159 Speaker 1: what it looks like to me. It's almost similar to 451 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 1: what we see with the Pittsburgh Steelers last year. They 452 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,359 Speaker 1: start running off wins early in the season and you 453 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 1: can start to see it tell off. And now we're 454 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 1: coming back to the conclusion that they held on to 455 00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:54,480 Speaker 1: being probably too long. This team is not really built 456 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 1: to facilitate a veteran quarterback going and having an opportunity 457 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,159 Speaker 1: to win a Super Bowl. So Russ, you look at 458 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:05,679 Speaker 1: Seattle and yeah, they have make capitality. Tyler Locket is talented. 459 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:10,879 Speaker 1: The offensive line has their issues, which he addressed defensively, brother, 460 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 1: they can't stop a damn nose league defensively. So when 461 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 1: you when you think about Russ, you think about these 462 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:20,680 Speaker 1: quarterbacks that's competing for championships. Aaron Rodgers is gonna be 463 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:24,439 Speaker 1: right back in the mix. Tom obviously in Tampa, right 464 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: back in the mix. You look at these situations with 465 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 1: these veteran guys and they got to get around teams 466 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:33,520 Speaker 1: that really has a great set up and great coaching 467 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:37,080 Speaker 1: and offensive philosophy, and we've been throwing it out there. 468 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 1: And the Saints to me, would be a good location 469 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 1: because of the synergy that I believe he would have 470 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 1: with Sean Payton. Not to throw Jamis to the Wars 471 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:47,880 Speaker 1: he was doing fine, but Russ is an absolute upgrade. 472 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:50,239 Speaker 1: But to me, it just felt like a like like 473 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:54,160 Speaker 1: finality after losing to the Washington football team and then 474 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:59,119 Speaker 1: from a game breakdown standpoint DP, how vanilla engineric was 475 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:02,919 Speaker 1: that offensive plan like that? It was you land up 476 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:06,359 Speaker 1: DK Metcalf in the same spot. You can't get them targets. 477 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 1: We see the deep throws to Tyler Locket, everybody gets 478 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 1: excited about that, but in what world does a Russell 479 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 1: Wilson land offense, not to have the ability to put 480 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 1: up twenty four points in a game to be able 481 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 1: to win the football game. But Mark, you can't convert 482 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 1: third down. Would you move on from Pete Carroll if 483 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 1: it meant you could keep Russ in Seattle? Yes, if 484 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 1: Russ told me that we need it. I need to 485 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 1: have a new infusion of offensive philosophy and a different 486 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 1: way to approach it. Absolutely, because listen, I love Pee Carroll. 487 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 1: Pe Carroll one of my favorite coaches. But what I 488 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 1: was saying earlier, dp it ran his course in Seattle, man, 489 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 1: and his philosophy doesn't seem to be taking hold there. 490 00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 1: And we gotta let the legion of Boom go, brother, 491 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 1: we gotta let it go. It's long there anymore. This 492 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 1: room offensively is very geneered. They don't have the same 493 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 1: run game they had with marsh John and the things. 494 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 1: I don't think people realize how good the Seattle Seahawks 495 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:16,480 Speaker 1: were when they were winning Super Bowls, and we've gotten 496 00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 1: so accustomed to Russ making up for the things that 497 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 1: they lacked and still being able to play at a 498 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 1: very high level. This team hasn't really been what you 499 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 1: would consider even last year you brought it up twelve 500 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 1: and four, But did we really think they were a 501 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 1: super Bowl contender? I don't think at one point I 502 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 1: said the Seattle Seahawks or a super Bowl contender. It 503 00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 1: was all about letting Russ cook and how good he looked. 504 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 1: But ultimately I think this thing has just ran its course. 505 00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:45,440 Speaker 1: And if Peat goals and they get the right type 506 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 1: of guy, potentially it could keep Russ there. But Russ 507 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 1: his family life, all of those things I think are 508 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 1: going to factor into him. Maybe want to change locations. 509 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 1: If I gave you a free shot at Keyshawn Johnson, 510 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 1: Ryan Clark, or dan Or Alpscale, dan Orlofski, and I 511 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,760 Speaker 1: try to saw him in have DP, I gotta be 512 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 1: honest with you. And I love him because he's my brother. 513 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:13,400 Speaker 1: But I would try to saw him in have because 514 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 1: he has that little stinking arrogance of a quarterback that 515 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 1: sometimes comes off that you just want to like. You 516 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 1: just want to make them know that you really aren't 517 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 1: an athlete. You had a really good arm and you 518 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 1: could throw, but you can't get away. And I would 519 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 1: want to saw him in half. I absolutely would. And 520 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,400 Speaker 1: I love him, I love him, like him have stayed 521 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 1: at his home, his kids, or my nephews and nieces. 522 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 1: But if I had a shot on any of them, 523 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:48,800 Speaker 1: it'll be dandy. Yeah, I'm not yea, Patrick, What if 524 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 1: I threw Greeny in there? You want to take a 525 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 1: poppet my greenbird? Yeah? Yeah, I want to see how 526 00:30:53,440 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 1: long he hid be in the hospital. Hey, it's great 527 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 1: to catch up with you. We hope to have you back, 528 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 1: and thank you again for all the kind words.

Thank you, Thank you, Marcus. 533 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 1: Marcus spears the ESPN NFL Analyst and you can see 534 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 1: him on NFL Live Monday through Friday at for Eastern 535 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 1: with the host Laura Rutledge. He's also on Get Up 536 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 1: with Mike Greenberg. He good energy there, good energy, Jake 537 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 1: and Phoenix has been holding for a while and got 538 00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 1: a pressing question Jake joining us. Yes, Jake, what's on 539 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 1: your mind? How's it going? Good? Sir? Hey, I was 540 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 1: thinking about these recent changes by coaches and I was 541 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:55,280 Speaker 1: wondering about potential implications about the programs that they're going to, 542 00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:58,640 Speaker 1: seeing how they just up and abandon the schools. If 543 00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 1: you're a future prospect or even the parents of these prospects, 544 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,880 Speaker 1: wouldn't it make you think twice about going and joining 545 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 1: those coaches? And maybe you think maybe I should look 546 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 1: at other programs seeing that they just left and could 547 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 1: possibly happen again in one or two or three years. 548 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 1: But I think every program is the same now, Jake. 549 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 1: I mean, you have a couple that you know, Nick 550 00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 1: Saban has been there at Alabama, but Kirk Ferens at Iowa. 551 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,480 Speaker 1: I mean, it's rare when a coach stays. It's weird 552 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:30,400 Speaker 1: you have to move to climb the ladder. But then 553 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 1: a university once a coach who has stability sort of, 554 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:36,840 Speaker 1: and then you bring him in. Part of the reason 555 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 1: why LSU wanted Brian Kelly is he provided stability USC 556 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:46,000 Speaker 1: wanting Lincoln Riley. He provided stability. But that stability is fragile, 557 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 1: it's fleeting, and it feels like everybody has an expiration 558 00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:52,320 Speaker 1: date when it comes to a head coaching. John and 559 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 1: what you have with Brian Kelly, I thought he was 560 00:32:54,880 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 1: going to be a lifer, need not No, and you 561 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 1: shouldn't be surprised if Kirk ference had his opportunities to 562 00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 1: leave Iowa. He's a lifer. Nick Saban, this will be 563 00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:12,080 Speaker 1: his last job, at least I would think his last job. 564 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 1: I know he flirted with Texas, I know they offered 565 00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 1: him the job. Probably use that just for leverage at Alabama. 566 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 1: But I don't think you look at a college program 567 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 1: unless it's Division three where you see a coach who's 568 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 1: going to stay ten, fifteen, twenty twenty five years just 569 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 1: not going to happen. Yeah, See, this is probably the 570 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:33,840 Speaker 1: best time to commit to USC or LSU. You know 571 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:36,360 Speaker 1: those judes aren't leaving next year or the year after him, 572 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 1: probably not after year three, so you can guarantee yourself. 573 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 1: But I also think you have to know now what 574 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 1: the landscape is. If you're parents of a big time prospect, 575 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 1: five star recruit, you sort of know. Like Spencer Rattler, 576 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:56,040 Speaker 1: he was as highly recruited as any quarterback he was. 577 00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 1: He was publicized as much as any quarterback that I've 578 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 1: seen in the last five years. I knew all about 579 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:06,520 Speaker 1: Spencer Rattler when he was in high school Okay, he 580 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,960 Speaker 1: gets to Oklahoma, everybody trying to make him a Heisman candidate. 581 00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:12,200 Speaker 1: All of a sudden he struggles. Next thing you know, 582 00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:15,000 Speaker 1: he's lost his job. Next thing you know, he's transferring. 583 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 1: This is what happens. Justin Field's transferred, Baker Mayfield, Kyler Murray, 584 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts. They're all interchangeable parts, you know. The transfer portal. 585 00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:35,399 Speaker 1: It gives the player, the kid, an opportunity to Hey, 586 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 1: it didn't work out for whatever reason, and I'm not 587 00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 1: bound by this scholarship to stay here. And I think 588 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 1: it's it's only fair because if you're imagine you're a 589 00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 1: Cincinnati recruit and I don't know if Luke Fickle will leave. 590 00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:51,720 Speaker 1: I hope he stays at Cincinnati. Let's say he leaves. 591 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,160 Speaker 1: Let's say you just agreed to go there because of 592 00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:59,439 Speaker 1: Luke Fickle, and then what happens, or you were going 593 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 1: to Notre imagine you're the recruit. Last night, as one 594 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 1: of the assistants was in your room, in your living room, 595 00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:13,680 Speaker 1: and that coach leaves, You're like, I'm all in on 596 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:18,919 Speaker 1: Notre Dame. That coach walks outside and sees that your 597 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:22,319 Speaker 1: coach has just left for LSU. So then what's the 598 00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:25,560 Speaker 1: recruit due. Now you hadn't signed anything, but now you've 599 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:29,760 Speaker 1: got to start the process again unless you go, Hey, coach, 600 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 1: I'm following you. Players from Oakloma are gonna follow Lincoln Riley. 601 00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:36,359 Speaker 1: How many players at Notre Dame committed to Notre Dame? 602 00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:41,759 Speaker 1: We're gonna go to LSU. Yeah. Well, that's the thing, 603 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 1: like when you think about the fallout for all of 604 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:46,560 Speaker 1: the recruits, there's a bunch of kids who say, just 605 00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 1: started their freshman year, a red shirted their freshman year 606 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:50,680 Speaker 1: at some of these schools that now the guy who 607 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:53,839 Speaker 1: recruited them, he just split. So now you're just kind 608 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 1: of out. The transfer portal doesn't always go your way. 609 00:35:57,440 --> 00:35:59,920 Speaker 1: You know, you're gonna end up, you know, a practice 610 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:03,279 Speaker 1: squad player at some place. Yeah. Yeah, I'm looking at 611 00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:05,319 Speaker 1: the list of number one overall picks three The last 612 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:08,799 Speaker 1: four were transfers, you know, Baker Kyler, Joe Burrow, and 613 00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:11,920 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence is more of an exception, now, right, yes, yeah, 614 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,719 Speaker 1: he kind of like, wow, you stayed for three years there. 615 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:20,000 Speaker 1: But it's you have to give something to these kids 616 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:22,280 Speaker 1: that they have to have a little bit of power 617 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:24,520 Speaker 1: and you know, name, image and likeness gave him a 618 00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 1: little bit of power. The transfer portal gave them a 619 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:30,040 Speaker 1: little bit of power. Yeah, you had these older coaches 620 00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:34,200 Speaker 1: who were dinosaurs going, oh, you know, the transfer portals terrible. 621 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:39,360 Speaker 1: Why it's terrible for you, not for the kids. You 622 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:42,840 Speaker 1: know why, because they're control freaks. I can't control the 623 00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 1: transfer portal. Okay, so makes a little bit tougher, but 624 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:50,600 Speaker 1: at least it gives you an option. If you go 625 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 1: to a school and that coach all of a sudden says, 626 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:57,280 Speaker 1: see you, you should at least have some kind of recourse. 627 00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:01,120 Speaker 1: All right, take a break back after this.

Okay. 658 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:58,440 Speaker 1: Of the first nine picks in the NFL Draft, the 659 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:01,480 Speaker 1: Jets have two numbers four and five, the Giants have 660 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:06,240 Speaker 1: two number six and seven. Philadelphia has two numbers eight 661 00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:11,200 Speaker 1: and nine. That's if the draft were held today. That's 662 00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:23,839 Speaker 1: your stat of the day. Follow you want to fill 663 00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:26,920 Speaker 1: in the other draft picks there if the draft were today, Dan, 664 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:35,040 Speaker 1: it's not, we're today. Detroit Lions, Houston Texans, Jacksonville Jets, Jets, Giants, Giants, Philly, Philly, 665 00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:39,680 Speaker 1: then Carolina, Atlanta, and Philly also has the fourteenth pick 666 00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:41,959 Speaker 1: of the draft. Yes week, Love. It never gonna happen 667 00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:44,440 Speaker 1: because the teams don't tank if they don't have their 668 00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:46,720 Speaker 1: own pick. And watch, Miami's gonna win out. The Bears 669 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:49,439 Speaker 1: are gonna win out. Those picks are gonna fall hard. Well, 670 00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:51,879 Speaker 1: I think the Dolphins can win out. I don't think 671 00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:54,359 Speaker 1: the Bears can win out, but they won't. They'll play 672 00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:56,840 Speaker 1: their starters. As last two weeks and they've been playing 673 00:39:56,840 --> 00:40:00,439 Speaker 1: their starters. It doesn't they have it. They been playing 674 00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:04,440 Speaker 1: their second straight quarterback all season. Uh. But Andy Dalton, No, 675 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:09,040 Speaker 1: they've been playing fields when they clearly this starting said 676 00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 1: they're in that playoff graphic last night, I'm like the 677 00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 1: Chicago Bears or they're one game out. Pauli also has 678 00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:19,400 Speaker 1: a whose stats would you want? You're ready with the 679 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:25,840 Speaker 1: theme music for whose stats? Stats? Goose stats? Would you want? 680 00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:30,440 Speaker 1: Tell me? Tell me, tell me who stats? Whose stats 681 00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:32,920 Speaker 1: would you want? They get in? Quarterback one is a 682 00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:36,160 Speaker 1: sixty two percent passer on this season. He's got eleven touchdowns, 683 00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:39,440 Speaker 1: six picks twenty four yards, and his quarterback rating twenty 684 00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:41,920 Speaker 1: four hundred yards. Yeah, that'd be bad, and his quarterback 685 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:45,239 Speaker 1: rating is ninety. Quarterback one, his quarterback rating is one. 686 00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:48,120 Speaker 1: Quarterback two is a sixty seven percent passer a little better, 687 00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:52,040 Speaker 1: sixteen touchdowns, ten picks, twenty six hundred yards. His quarterback 688 00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:54,880 Speaker 1: rating is around ninety two. All Right, I'm gonna say 689 00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:59,239 Speaker 1: that Quarterback one is Russell Wilson Junior. The third No. 690 00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:03,120 Speaker 1: One is Taylor or Tyler Heineke, depending on what you 691 00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:07,799 Speaker 1: prefer of the Washington football team. So a solid NFL 692 00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:15,560 Speaker 1: quarter okay, decent status okay, QB two sixteen touchdowns, ten picks, 693 00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:22,920 Speaker 1: twenty six hundred yards. Russell Wilson, Junior. The third Baker 694 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:28,880 Speaker 1: Mayfield so basically identical stats of Taylor Heineken. Would you rather, well, 695 00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:31,880 Speaker 1: if you give me the factor in the price tag, 696 00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:39,160 Speaker 1: I would take Taylor Heineck right now at that price tag. Offense. Yeah, yeah, mclub, 697 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:42,200 Speaker 1: that's tough. I mean, I think NFL teams might say 698 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:46,640 Speaker 1: neither right next year or both. I would think that 699 00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:51,600 Speaker 1: Washington would find a at least the attempt to find 700 00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:54,319 Speaker 1: a franchise quarterback. I think you can move on from 701 00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:56,759 Speaker 1: Taylor Heineck. I know that he's well liked in the 702 00:41:56,760 --> 00:42:00,480 Speaker 1: locker room, but do you keep him as your backup? 703 00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:03,839 Speaker 1: What's he going to cost you as a backup if 704 00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:07,319 Speaker 1: you move on from you know, Ryan Fitzpatrick and maybe 705 00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:12,640 Speaker 1: and Taylor Heinkes like twenty nine or thirty. But I 706 00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:16,040 Speaker 1: don't know if you can find your franchise quarterback here 707 00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:19,600 Speaker 1: and everybody's looking for a franchise quarterback. And then with Cleveland, 708 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:22,360 Speaker 1: I just I got to see another year with Baker 709 00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:26,600 Speaker 1: and I know he's playing hurt, but I'm just I 710 00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:30,560 Speaker 1: can't be shelling out money for a quarterback that I 711 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:34,200 Speaker 1: don't think I can win with consistently based off of 712 00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:37,640 Speaker 1: his talents? Do I think he can run an offense. Yes, 713 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:41,239 Speaker 1: Do I think you know that he's tough and not afraid, Yes, 714 00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 1: all of those things. He's got some great attributes. I 715 00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:47,719 Speaker 1: just don't know if he's the quarterback who's going to 716 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:50,799 Speaker 1: beat you. He's the quarterback with two minutes to go 717 00:42:51,120 --> 00:42:53,279 Speaker 1: and you can count on him, And I can't be 718 00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:58,399 Speaker 1: spending forty five million dollars on that. Maybe Cleveland does 719 00:42:59,280 --> 00:43:01,920 Speaker 1: you know, But it feels like the more he plays, 720 00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:05,600 Speaker 1: the more he lessens his value. But he's trying to 721 00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:09,640 Speaker 1: play and he's hurt. It's going to be openings. I 722 00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:11,640 Speaker 1: don't know if we're going to have quality quarterbacks to 723 00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:15,360 Speaker 1: fill everything. Pittsburgh will have an opening, Carolina is going 724 00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:21,760 Speaker 1: to have an opening, Washington have an opening. Maybe Philly, 725 00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:24,720 Speaker 1: although if I'm Philly, I stay with Jalen Hurts unless 726 00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:27,080 Speaker 1: you could get Russell Wilson for a couple of those 727 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:31,640 Speaker 1: draft picks. Well here from Tiger Woods, coming up. One 728 00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:34,000 Speaker 1: more item we close that hour or two.
