I'm not that far from the U. 22 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 2: Okay, the free agent lifestyle is suiting well. 23 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 1: I see it's suiting me well. And there's something I 24 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 1: want to bring up, Ty. Yeah, there's a scene from 25 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: a classic sports movie, maybe the most classic sports movie 26 00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 1: of all. There's a scene from Cool Runnings, right, and 27 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 1: I've referenced this I want to say before on the show, 28 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 1: but maybe I just referenced it so much. I don't 29 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 1: know where and when. But there's a scene from the 30 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:21,039 Speaker 1: movie like before, you know, the night before a big race. God, 31 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 1: what was the name of the main character. I know 32 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 1: it's Leon is the actor, Okay, Derese direct, whatever it is. 33 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 1: It was not Dougie Doug, but he was the leader. 34 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 1: And he was in the bathtub the night before the race, 35 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: an empty bathtub. 36 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 2: Sort of going through mentally the paces of the track. 37 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 2: I remember the paces of the track, this curve and 38 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 2: this curve. And John Candy, the coach, was like, this 39 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,760 Speaker 2: is what separates you. You know, all the greats are 40 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 2: wired like this. And as I was sitting on the 41 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 2: beach at like I don't know, three forty five pm 42 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 2: and realized it's probably gonna there's probably be some traffic 43 00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,559 Speaker 2: in Miami, I gotta get back to record the show. 44 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 2: I'm going to say this right now, Ty, Lesser college 45 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 2: football podcasts would not have made the sacrifice. No, I'm 46 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 2: a very stupid person. But here we are, Ty, this 47 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:14,519 Speaker 2: is what separates us. Come rain or shine or beautiful 48 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 2: Miami sands. We are the cool Runnings leader of podcast consistence. 49 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:24,119 Speaker 2: Why didn't you record from the beach in retrospect? 50 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: I should have. 51 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 2: We could have figured out some way to record from 52 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 2: the beach. 53 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 1: Data has been shaky, tie data. You know, I've been 54 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 1: running up some data bills. But I could have recorded. 55 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 1: This was now Jody with and I her one of 56 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 1: her best friend's moms has a place on the beach, 57 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 1: and it was it was real nice.

This week 79 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 1: we're doing a show we're calling Spring Forward Dan oh 80 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: my god, the drama. Yeah. What we have is we 81 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 1: have sort of a list, a litany, I don't know 82 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: whatever the word is. We have an array of topics 83 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 1: that we want to discuss as it relates to spring 84 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 1: football and what it may mean, whether it's quarterback battles 85 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 1: or new code or any possible injuries or transfers or 86 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 1: people that once we started gazing upon twenty eighteen rosters 87 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: and seeing who's gone, seeing how recruiting classes have gone, 88 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: that like maybe early on there's some skepticism, or maybe 89 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: early on there's like a by low element because of 90 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 1: what the rest of a certain conference looks like or 91 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: who's incoming whatever. But let's basically we've selected five topics 92 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 1: each yep. That's sort of spanning from the positive to 93 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 1: the negative and everything in between. I don't know all 94 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,359 Speaker 1: that much about your topics that you've had the opportunity 95 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 1: to deep dive, and hopefully you have some curiosities about 96 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 1: the topics I've chosen to deep dive. So I think 97 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 1: we're just going to sort of go back and forth 98 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:46,599 Speaker 1: with these and figure out how not necessarily major but 99 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: in the grand scope of things, interesting curious topics, what 100 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 1: direction they're going in. So I'm excited for this because 101 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 1: it's already twenty eighteen, and because of twenty eighteen, we 102 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 1: have talked about the twenty eighteen season. We cannot continue 103 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,279 Speaker 1: to look back or always just be big picture tie. 104 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,919 Speaker 1: Sometimes it's time to put on that information. Snorkel and 105 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 1: dive in. 106 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 2: That is absolutely right, and it is. It's supposedly spring 107 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 2: now here on the East Coast. They keep telling us this, 108 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 2: although I saw a forecast calling for another one to 109 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 2: three inches of snow on Saturday, which is going to 110 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 2: ruin a golf round that I have I'm sorry, previously scheduled. Yeah, 111 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 2: so they claim that we're in the midst of springtime here, 112 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 2: and as you know this time of year, once you 113 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,040 Speaker 2: get to April, it is time to start talking about 114 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 2: spring football. Spring practices are very much a thing, Spring games, scrimmages, 115 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 2: whatever you want to call them, weird formats, very much 116 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 2: a thing. And it is this time of year where 117 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 2: we start looking at twenty eighteen and all right, who 118 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 2: are the incoming freshmen? What are the big spring storylines 119 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,600 Speaker 2: that we need to pay attention to. We need to 120 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 2: start doing some research on our end, hopefully to get 121 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 2: all y'all prepared for what's coming over the coming days 122 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 2: and weeks, and says we begin the slow march towards 123 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 2: the twenty eighteen regular college football season. 124 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 1: That's what we do. I'm getting tierry just hearing you 125 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: say y'all instead of ya'all. That's right? That really does 126 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 1: you know? People don't believe in evolution? Tie, And this 127 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 1: is the proof right here that you and I have 128 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 1: grown all right, So, as you mentioned, what we did 129 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 1: is we picked out five basic buckets of questions that 130 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 1: we wanted to ask each other. 131 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,159 Speaker 2: By no means is this intended to be a lecture. 132 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:32,839 Speaker 2: I think we want to go back and forth and 133 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 2: talk through some of these topics. So why don't I 134 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 2: get things started here? 135 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,160 Speaker 1: I would say it's not a lecture tie. It is 136 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 1: a competition to see who can get closest to being maybe. 137 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 2: Right, Okay, I'll go with that. That works for me, 138 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 2: so all right, first question here, a lot of movement 139 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 2: on the coaching carousel, right m hm. My first question 140 00:06:55,440 --> 00:07:00,480 Speaker 2: to you, is it true or not true that new 141 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 2: Florida head football coach Dan Mullen is just a quarterback 142 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:09,280 Speaker 2: away from returning the Gators to prominence. 143 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 1: Is that a true statement? No, I don't think. I 144 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 1: don't think that's all that there is. I think that 145 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 1: is a question. I think, like a good cake, it's 146 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: sort of multi layered. Ty. I would imagine if he 147 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 1: is able to solve quarterback, a number of things will 148 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: fall into place. Okay, but recruiting quarterbacks of the state 149 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 1: of Florida is not it's sort of under the radar. 150 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: A difficult thing because high school quarterbacks in Florida have 151 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: a pretty difficult time playing against defense. Is with perhaps 152 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 1: the highest talent level in the country in terms of 153 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: high school athletes playing on defense, So that is a 154 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 1: little bit tricky. He is getting credit for being a 155 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: Florida guy, that's right. Oh, he gets how it works. 156 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 1: Welcome Welcome home, Dan, Right, that's sort of very abstract thing, 157 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 1: like he just gets it, which doesn't always actual work. 158 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 1: But I think there is something true to saying if 159 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 1: he can figure out quarterback, And it did seem like 160 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: Jim mckawayne had things figured out at quarterback a couple 161 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: of years ago when Will Greer, especially after that Old 162 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 1: Miss game, looked as good as he did. So it 163 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 1: hasn't been all that long since Florida fans were rightfully 164 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: confident that things were finally figured out at quarterback. That said, 165 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 1: I think there are questions about recruiting with how well 166 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 1: Willie Taggart and Mark Richt are going to continue to 167 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 1: do in Florida that Dan Mullen can't take a back seat. 168 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: And I think his staff has been put together with 169 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,559 Speaker 1: the understanding of you know, obviously both coaching, but people 170 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: that understand recruiting in Florida. So I think that's going 171 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 1: to continue to be an enormous, enormous challenge. And honestly, 172 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 1: this is a Florida team he takes over that now 173 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 1: has the biggest juggernaut perhaps the East has seen since 174 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 1: the mid two thousand. 175 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 2: See, that's where I was, That's where I was going 176 00:08:58,240 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 2: to go with this. 177 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 1: So I'm going to I'm going to give the Floria 178 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 1: to you. Tie, is what slice of the pie to 179 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: you in your deep dive? Is the quarterback question given 180 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 1: the broader context of his job now, No. 181 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,439 Speaker 2: I think we're very much on the same page on 182 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 2: this one. The reason I asked the question, by the way, 183 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 2: is because it's really been a popular talking point ever 184 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 2: since we heard that Dan Mullen was getting the job. Hell, 185 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 2: I've gone there without even really thinking about it. Of course, 186 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 2: Dan Mullen's ability to recruit and develop quarterbacks. Of course, 187 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 2: if he can do that in Gainesville, it's going to help. 188 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 2: Florida was one hundred and second in the nation in 189 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 2: passing offense last year. Anything at quote you or I 190 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 2: could help at this point, all right. It was absolutely 191 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 2: the biggest Achilles heel for them last year, and quite honestly, 192 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 2: maybe with the exception of Will Greer, maybe the last 193 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 2: eight seasons before last, I have not had any stability 194 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 2: at quarterbacks since, like t Bow in two thousand and nine. 195 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:06,199 Speaker 2: So I think at a minimum, Florida is a quarterback 196 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,959 Speaker 2: away from taking a big step forward. 197 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:10,199 Speaker 1: All right. 198 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 2: Now, I preface that by saying that your point is 199 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 2: spot on. It's not the only thing going on at Florida, 200 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 2: and that is due I think in large part two, 201 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:28,200 Speaker 2: as you alluded, Georgia is revving up. We've got new 202 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 2: promise at South Carolina and missou We've got I would argue, 203 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 2: Georgia is revved Yeah. With the road they're at like 204 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 2: seven thousand rpm. Yes, who knows what happens at Tennessee. 205 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 2: If Jeremy Pruitt can give them some stability, and then 206 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,960 Speaker 2: you've got the continued edition of coaching talent. In the West, 207 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 2: it's just it's like not cut and dry anymore. So 208 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 2: quarterback's going to help, and certainly if Emery Jones or 209 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 2: Felipe Franks, I don't know who quarterback is going to be, 210 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 2: probably Emory Jones. But if that position grouping can work out, 211 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 2: it's going to elevate the Gators. It just doesn't feel 212 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 2: like they're one piece away anymore. 213 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, and Dan Mullen's his offenses, granted, in the West 214 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 1: and different animals still at this point than the East, 215 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:20,199 Speaker 1: have been pretty inconsistent, though quarterback has been pretty consistently impressive. 216 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 1: I know Mississippi State took a step back offensively this 217 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 1: past year. They finished thirteenth out of fourteen in terms 218 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 1: of yards per play versus SEC teams. They were sort 219 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 1: of middle of the pack the year before. But twenty fifteen, 220 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,200 Speaker 1: which would have been what Dack's final year, yep, they 221 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 1: were fourth in the conference offensively. The year before that 222 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 1: fourth in the conference. So there is there is a 223 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 1: track record if he does have that top level quarterback 224 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 1: with Nick Fitzgerald, you know, at a healthy place. You know, 225 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,199 Speaker 1: has been pretty impressive against good teams. You know, Missippi 226 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 1: State the closest team to beating Alabama last season during 227 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 1: the regular season before they actually did lose to Auburn. 228 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 1: I am confident that Dan Mullen is going to be 229 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 1: able to develop quarterbacks. To me, the almost I think 230 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:06,959 Speaker 1: the bigger question is actually going to be recruiting and 231 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 1: coaching staff fit for Dan Mullen at Florida because it's 232 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 1: going to be so tricky with Willy Taggart and Mark 233 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 1: Rick operating at at full speed in the same state 234 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 1: for the same blue chip kit. 235 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 2: Okay, well, so I think what we're both saying here 236 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,439 Speaker 2: is that Dan mullin the Florida Gators are a quarterback 237 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 2: away from taking a giant step forward. Yes, on some level, 238 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 2: But the question is much different now than it was 239 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 2: in twenty fifteen. In twenty sixteen, where you might have 240 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 2: answered differently, there's just too many other moving parts here 241 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,440 Speaker 2: to really feel confident that they're just a quarterback away. Okay, 242 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:46,080 Speaker 2: so let's go. All right, we answered my new coach 243 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 2: related question. Yes, what is yours? That you've been mulling 244 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:50,359 Speaker 2: here in the springtime? 245 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:51,960 Speaker 1: So I've been trying to think about, and I know 246 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: this is going to come as a shock to everybody, 247 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: but what the actual timeline looks like for chip Kelly 248 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 1: and UCLA and getting to a place where they don't 249 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: necessarily resemble what they look like at Oregon because the 250 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 1: and you know he had dentistison when he came to 251 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 1: to Eugene. But how long it will take for everybody 252 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 1: that is watching a UCLA game to look at UCLA 253 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 1: and say, oh, yeah, no, he's got them humming right. 254 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 1: This is this is what they will This is what 255 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 1: they should look like, given them being a chip Kelly team. 256 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,320 Speaker 1: So what are your thoughts as for given what their returned, 257 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 1: given what they sort of recruited to before, which is 258 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:34,320 Speaker 1: like three different offenses essentially what what to you seems 259 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 1: like a realistic timeline. 260 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 2: So Charles Edward, don't call me. Chip Kelly took over 261 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,679 Speaker 2: at UCLA. It was a big deal for obvious reasons. 262 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 2: Is it going to pain you just a little bit 263 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 2: to see the UCLA logo on that white visor more 264 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 2: than a little yeah? Yeah, you can be okay, you 265 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 2: can be okay, buddy TBD, Well, I'm kind of mixed 266 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 2: on this. U CLA. Their biggest problem over the last 267 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 2: couple of years, just in terms of what they're putting 268 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:08,640 Speaker 2: out there on the field as a product, has really 269 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:12,200 Speaker 2: been defense. Defense has been a total tire fire. 270 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 1: They had a nice little run in twenty sixteen when 271 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 1: they had NFL talent and then just fell off a cliff. 272 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 2: They fell off a cliff, and they've had injury issues, 273 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 2: but by a large, defense has really been an issue. Now, 274 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 2: if you can go out and get Chip Kelly, you 275 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 2: go out and get Chip Kelly. I'm fine with that move. 276 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:31,720 Speaker 2: But UCLA fans will feel like things are moving in 277 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 2: a much more positive direction when they're not giving up 278 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 2: thirty five points a game. 279 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 1: Chip Kelly, to me, did not prove on. 280 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 2: Any level that he could do that on offense, I 281 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 2: am curious to see how he utilizes the guys that 282 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 2: are there. I think he's got enough talent at running back. 283 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 2: He's got guys like Theo Howard who are versatile enough 284 00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 2: that they can run in that system. You know, Howard 285 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 2: being a wide receiver. But he's got guys that he 286 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 2: can utilize to run that system. I think it'll be 287 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 2: fun to watch. I think he gets a little bit 288 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 2: of a longer leash because he's such a high profile coach, 289 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 2: probably the most high profile coach that UCLA has had 290 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 2: in quite some time, as far back as I can remember. 291 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 2: So they're going to give him plenty of time to 292 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 2: get this job done until you know, he decides to 293 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 2: go elsewhere essentially, So I don't know if timeline is 294 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 2: so much of an issue, but I think it's going 295 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 2: to take him, I don't know, three years to get 296 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 2: this thing hum in the way. 297 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 1: Really Yeah, Okay, so a few things to sort of 298 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 1: download there. Jerry Asinaro is the defensive coordinator. I love 299 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 1: Jerry asnarrow what he was able to do with the 300 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 1: Oregon defense. I fully do not believe UCLA upfront has 301 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 1: the depth and talent right now especially on the inside, 302 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 1: because I know Jalen Phillips is great and can be 303 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 1: a great pass rusher. I don't think UCLA upfront on 304 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 1: defense and really all that many places on defense. How 305 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 1: other are pieces. Darnay Holmes promising corner. He was like 306 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 1: the number one corner of the country a couple of 307 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 1: years ago. I think there's talent, but more than anything, 308 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 1: if UCLA is going to be playing with tempo, which 309 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 1: at times they will be with ship Kelly, I remember 310 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 1: he doesn't go with blur offense all the time. He 311 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: plays with different speeds. But the big thing for Oregon 312 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:18,880 Speaker 1: when they really got to a good place was when 313 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 1: they had depth on defense. They're rotating in a bunch 314 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 1: of guys and keeping legs fresh as they were scoring 315 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 1: super quickly, so they were building the depth and they 316 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 1: were staying fresh on defense, and I think they will 317 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 1: do a lot of that. At quarterback. There's an incoming 318 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 1: true freshman that is promising, but I don't think he's 319 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 1: on campus yet. Dor and Thompson Robinson same high school 320 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 1: as Tate Martel, of course, who has committed tex A 321 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 1: and m is now at Ohio State, so he's not 322 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 1: there yet. And they thought they were getting a grad 323 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 1: transfer kJ cart of Samuels from Washington, Jake Browning's back up. 324 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 1: But you know, everybody, he committed to UCLA and everybody 325 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 1: assumed he was going there and then decommitted and is 326 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 1: going to Colorado State, which maybe, you know, an enrollment 327 00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 1: academic thing. I don't know why if you have the 328 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 1: opportunity to start for Ship Kelly at UCLA, you'd end 329 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: up in Colorado State. But I don't have the full story, 330 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 1: and I won't pretend like I do. And so that 331 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:10,160 Speaker 1: leaves Devin Modster basically, who had a good first half 332 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,640 Speaker 1: of a bowl game. That's really the thing we're most 333 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 1: encouraged by against Kansas State before UCLA just collapsed against 334 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 1: the Wildcats. So Devin monster built, if you were to 335 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,479 Speaker 1: compare them to any of the Oregon quarterbacks, more like 336 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 1: a Masoli type, maybe like six foot six y one, 337 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 1: but built solidly to ten two fifteen. But they've been 338 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,639 Speaker 1: recruiting to a much more pro style system. They went 339 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,640 Speaker 1: to Kennedy Palamalu and then and then this past year 340 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,680 Speaker 1: Jedfish to run the offense for Josh Rosen strengths. So 341 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:40,879 Speaker 1: I think it's going to take some time. I like 342 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,359 Speaker 1: the staff Chip Kelly has put together. I think there 343 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,680 Speaker 1: are going to be moments. I think UCLA should be 344 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 1: able to beat a team or two that looks questionable 345 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:51,520 Speaker 1: on paper this year, especially with how in Influx the 346 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 1: South looks. But I think to expect anything significant in 347 00:17:56,800 --> 00:18:00,399 Speaker 1: year one, even with some interesting pieces, I think is 348 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,159 Speaker 1: a stretch. So I think by the second half of 349 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,880 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen is when it's realistic to look at UCLA 350 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 1: and say, this is what we expect from a chip 351 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 1: Kelly identity team. I think that's the answer, because they're 352 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:15,880 Speaker 1: going to recruit well. They need to get the big 353 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 1: bodies up front on defense, especially to rotate in and out. 354 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:20,680 Speaker 1: But I think they're going to get to a point 355 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:22,919 Speaker 1: by the middle of next season where you're going to 356 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,200 Speaker 1: be able to recognize this bruin team as a chip 357 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 1: Kelly team. I think the other component here, at least 358 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 1: in the short term, is how Influx the back twelve 359 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:35,199 Speaker 1: South is. Sure. 360 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 2: Absolutely, you know, Chip Kelly runs a scheme that can 361 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 2: definitely catch you off guard, even if he doesn't have 362 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 2: all the pieces in place the way he might like. 363 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 2: So there's definitely a chance to your point that he 364 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 2: can knock off a couple teams that you wouldn't think 365 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:52,640 Speaker 2: UCLA is equipped to beat. 366 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,640 Speaker 1: And he's calling plays I assume because he doesn't really 367 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 1: have a true offensive coordinator. He's got a quarterbacks coach. 368 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: So there's the confidence that you are getting exactly what 369 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 1: you signed up for. You know, he's not passing off anything, 370 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: at least in the short term, So you're getting the 371 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 1: best of Chip Kelly. You're getting his eyes on a 372 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:13,920 Speaker 1: play to play basis. All right, very good. 373 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:18,240 Speaker 2: So you're saying about midway through year two, I'm saying 374 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 2: around the same period of time. 375 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 1: But year three, yeah, I would say ordinarily that I 376 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:25,159 Speaker 1: think you'd be right. But I think they're going to 377 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 1: be able to attract enough people it'll be a better 378 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,120 Speaker 1: version recruiting wise, in what he was able to attract 379 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 1: at Oregon because of the location, because of the school, 380 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 1: and because of just his reputation at this point. 381 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 2: All right, moving on, let's go to quarterback battles. Yes, 382 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:48,919 Speaker 2: Daniel her very quietly, and I know you've looked at this, 383 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 2: I said her, and I'm not sure why, but continue 384 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 2: the real story of this coming preseason I think is 385 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 2: the number of high profile quarterback battles that we got out. 386 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:02,280 Speaker 2: There's a lot hurts against two A tongue of Ilawa 387 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 2: is clearly the big one in the country that will 388 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 2: take place down at Alabama, But in truth, there are 389 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 2: like fifteen others around college football. I just want to 390 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:16,160 Speaker 2: put it right here. I personally love each and every. 391 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:17,440 Speaker 1: One of them. Mm hmm. 392 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,639 Speaker 2: I love quarterback battles. I might love to see when 393 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 2: at Notre Dame. We're gonna talk about that maybe a 394 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 2: little bit more wow. But the ones that I like 395 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 2: the most are the ones that when you say, hey, ty, 396 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 2: who do you think is going to be quarterback at school? X? 397 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:36,200 Speaker 1: Right? 398 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,679 Speaker 2: The ones that I like the most are when my 399 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 2: honest response is that I don't. 400 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 1: Know anything about the contenders. 401 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 2: Sure like, I'm not supposed to say that because we 402 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 2: host this show and it's a big thing and all that, 403 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 2: but I know overballers have my back on this one. 404 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,200 Speaker 2: Not always do you know who all the contenders are? 405 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 2: And so with that is the backdrop Dan who will 406 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 2: be the starting quarter back for LSU in twenty eighteen. 407 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 1: Well, I mean it depends what they want this offense 408 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 1: to look like. Miles Brennan obviously got a number of 409 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:14,959 Speaker 1: reps last year, coming in at times for Danny Etling, 410 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 1: who again, I think there are stickers to this effect, 411 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 1: like Danny Etling is a pretty good quarterback with something 412 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 1: like that, I forget the exact verbiage, but Miles Brennan 413 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 1: was a high profile kid and a high profile commit 414 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 1: coming into LSU, so he got the time last year 415 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 1: and giving the experience. I guess really on both sides 416 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 1: of the ball. You know, I know they lost a 417 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,359 Speaker 1: couple of big pieces on offense, but I mean that's 418 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 1: highlighted obviously by Darius Guice. But given what's back, especially 419 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:48,119 Speaker 1: on defense, I am I am curious the effect that possibly, 420 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:52,680 Speaker 1: in big capital letters, solid quarterback play at LSU continued 421 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:55,679 Speaker 1: solid quarterback play, if not good quarterback play at LSU, 422 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,240 Speaker 1: will have on this team. So my gues would Miles Brennan. 423 00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 1: But I can't tell you. I know this up the chart, okay, 424 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 1: And that's fair. That's why we're bringing this up. That's 425 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:04,440 Speaker 1: why I brought it up because I was in a 426 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:08,400 Speaker 1: similar position. Miles Brennan needs a sophomore, former four star, 427 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 1: highly recruited pro style kid. You've also got Justin McMillan, 428 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 1: a red shirt junior, a three star kid, and then 429 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 1: my favorite name of the bunch, Loel Narcis. He is 430 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 1: a red shirt freshman and formerly a four star more 431 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:27,160 Speaker 1: of a dual threat kid, decommitted from Auburn to come 432 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 1: to LSU. There is not much experience here. Miles Brennan 433 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 1: is the most experienced, but collectively between these three guys, 434 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: he only threw something like twenty five passes in twenty seventeen, 435 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: so we're talking really truly full reboot at quarterback. We've 436 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 1: also got turnover at offensive coordinator. With Matt Canada leaving, 437 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,919 Speaker 1: ed Orgeron has promoted from within. The new coordinator is 438 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:55,400 Speaker 1: a gentleman by the name of Steve Enspinger. Yeah old 439 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 1: new guy, new old guy. Yeah, he's been around. He's 440 00:22:58,040 --> 00:22:58,720 Speaker 1: been around for a while. 441 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:02,159 Speaker 2: If that name doesn't sound familiar, that's okay. What you 442 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 2: need to know is that he was the interromoc back 443 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 2: in twenty sixteen. I guess when Oderan took over for 444 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 2: like the final eight games of the. 445 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 1: Year and had a really nice run. He did. 446 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 2: They won six of those eight games, didn't do all 447 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:21,399 Speaker 2: that well offensively against teams like Alabama, in Florida. But 448 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 2: it was certainly a big step up from what we 449 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 2: saw under Cam Cameron for sure. 450 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:27,399 Speaker 1: So there's that. 451 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,160 Speaker 2: I think the two names you're gonna hear the most 452 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 2: about our Miles Brennan and my boy Lowell Narcis. 453 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:38,400 Speaker 1: Okay, who would you give the Edge two? Because these 454 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,640 Speaker 1: are two guys. I mean, Brendan obviously has the playing time, 455 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 1: Edge Narcis has the name Edge a name, and that 456 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:50,200 Speaker 1: it's more fun to say so to you because I 457 00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 1: from what I can remember, it's a more not necessarily 458 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 1: pro style, but more traditional. It's just take a lot 459 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 1: of chances and yeah, it's whereas where Matt Canada had 460 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 1: employed a lot of shiftin was certainly multiple. I don't 461 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:04,160 Speaker 1: think he was a spread guy necessarily, but definitely multiple 462 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,640 Speaker 1: and more creative than what LSU had shown in years 463 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 1: past with relying on a lot of fly action and 464 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,920 Speaker 1: that kind of stete. That's right, That's right. So Ensminger 465 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,680 Speaker 1: is more of a throwback. 466 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:19,439 Speaker 2: He is. He is absolutely more pro style than Matt Canada. 467 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:23,720 Speaker 2: If Matt Canada is a hybrid between pro style and spread, 468 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 2: which I think is mostly accurate, An Sminger is much 469 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:31,680 Speaker 2: much more on the pro style side of that equation. 470 00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 2: If you look back to what he ran in twenty 471 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:37,959 Speaker 2: sixteen when he was the intermoc, it was much more 472 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,880 Speaker 2: pro style oriented, and I think just because of that, 473 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 2: Miles Brannan is probably the guy. He's a better fit 474 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,479 Speaker 2: for his system like that, he's the best passer on 475 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:50,440 Speaker 2: the roster, and he has a little bit more experienced 476 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 2: than the others. An Spinger hinted as much. He did 477 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 2: a radio hit back in February and he said that 478 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 2: Miles Brennan essentially would get like the first snap of 479 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 2: spring practice. 480 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:02,360 Speaker 1: Which seems reasonable. 481 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:04,880 Speaker 2: It absolutely I think the smart money is on him. 482 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 2: What I do want to throw out here though, just 483 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 2: as an important side note, there will be calls for 484 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 2: Lowell Narcis. He's got the way cooler name. He's a 485 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:19,480 Speaker 2: dual threat guy. He's a lefty, basically a bigger, more 486 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 2: southern version of Maligue Zaire. And you know how I 487 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,440 Speaker 2: felt about Moliku Zaire when he was recruited out of Ohio, 488 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 2: very excited, you know. So he's got a skill set 489 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 2: there that Enspinger can utilize maybe in special sets. I 490 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 2: hope for their sake, they don't try running the two 491 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 2: quarterback system. I don't think that will go over well 492 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,880 Speaker 2: with LSU fans, given where they've been a that would 493 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:43,960 Speaker 2: not be a good idea. But I think you'll see 494 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 2: a little bit of narsis. But Brenton's probably going to 495 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 2: be the guy. 496 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 1: So LSU goes nine to four last year, and there 497 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 1: is something a little bit disconcerting about one year of 498 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 1: an offensive coordinator, you know, whatever the fault was in 499 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 1: the Matt Canada ed oors or on bigger pay relationship. 500 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,199 Speaker 1: Do you have and I say this knowing this is 501 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 1: from Afar, do you have concerns about the idea of 502 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 1: ed Orzron you know, as a sort of a look 503 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 1: back on what went wrong for ed Orzron and saying, well, 504 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 1: he had four offensive coordinators in four years and it's 505 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,399 Speaker 1: hard to win. You know, do you think that that 506 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:24,879 Speaker 1: is a possibility that he is not going to be 507 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 1: able to find the guide to get LSU to where 508 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:31,160 Speaker 1: they should be considering their year in and year out 509 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:34,400 Speaker 1: talent level? No, one hundred percent? Then well could that 510 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,480 Speaker 1: that could be a part of a eulogy? Oh one 511 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:38,639 Speaker 1: hundred percent? And about worries? 512 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 2: I don't I think that could be a convenient excuse 513 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 2: if it doesn't work out for Ed Orsron. But on 514 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:50,400 Speaker 2: some level, if LSU, with all of their recruiting advantages, 515 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 2: can't get back to where we both think LSU should be, 516 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 2: h it probably speaks more to ed Orgeron than it 517 00:26:57,800 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 2: does any coordinator. 518 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 1: Don't you think, oh yeah, and that you know that's 519 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,679 Speaker 1: true of wil must Champ at Florida, yeah twice and 520 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,399 Speaker 1: ker Roper and whatever. And then you look at you know, 521 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:10,919 Speaker 1: Jimora and that he's owning the news cycle as an 522 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 1: unemployed coach. And a lot of the reason why there 523 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 1: were issues at UCLA was bad coordinator hires. It was 524 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:21,199 Speaker 1: Noel ma Zone who then took off, and then it 525 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 1: was Kennedy Palamala who we mentioned, and Jedfish and that's 526 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:28,200 Speaker 1: tough for anybody to succeed with. And I'm talking anybody 527 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:30,960 Speaker 1: like the players on the team on the offense, just 528 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 1: because the verbiage, which if you've listened to the Chris 529 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 1: Brown episode, you know that's an incredibly difficult thing. And 530 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:41,880 Speaker 1: so this hopefully works out for LSU, but if it doesn't, 531 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:45,119 Speaker 1: it almost cements at or Juron's time at LSU. 532 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 2: Unfortunately, all right, where are you going on the quarterback front? Dan, 533 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 2: what's your question entering spring? 534 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:55,680 Speaker 1: So we'll stay somewhat regional. I'm I'm super curious, and 535 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 1: this is going to be a shocker again for everybody's 536 00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 1: shocked at Chip Kelly. What Florida State is going to 537 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:05,400 Speaker 1: look like a quarterback because there are two understandably decent 538 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:11,960 Speaker 1: cases for you know, James Blackman and DeAndre francecoisre and 539 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:17,479 Speaker 1: so I'm I'm curious because having seen Willy Taggart's offense 540 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 1: last year, it appears and watching him at USF obviously 541 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 1: it appears he likes running the quarterback. It appears he 542 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:28,239 Speaker 1: likes going with tempo, he likes having a workhorse running back, 543 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 1: and he has that in cam Akers at Florida State. 544 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:35,440 Speaker 1: I am I think leaning towards James Blackman a little 545 00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 1: bit because of it, I am. And I don't think 546 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 1: it's because he necessarily has a higher well, no, I 547 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 1: think he does have a higher physical ceiling. I'm worried 548 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 1: about DeAndre Francois and his sort of low percentage throwing 549 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 1: downfield because that's what Willy Taggart likes to do, and 550 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:58,360 Speaker 1: the combination of Jimbo Fisher being a much more complicated 551 00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 1: offensive tactician than I think Willie Taggart will be. I 552 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 1: think that's ideal for James Blackman's skill set, and I 553 00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 1: think his size gives him a leg up on DeAndre Francois, 554 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 1: who's probably five to eleven six foot, So I think 555 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 1: durability wise, arm wise, and just what he will be 556 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 1: asked to do in a much simpler system. I think 557 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 1: I'm actually leaning James Blackman moving forward, especially given the youth. 558 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 2: So what I'm hearing is that stylistically, you think James Blackman, 559 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 2: in his skill set, yes, is better equipped for a 560 00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 2: Willie Taggart system. 561 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 1: This is correct, Man. 562 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 2: I don't know, gosh, it just didn't feel like James 563 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 2: Blackman knew what he was doing out there. 564 00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:41,880 Speaker 1: And I don't think he did. There were plenty of. 565 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 2: Games where you watched him and you didn't know if 566 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 2: you knew where to throw the ball. It seemed like 567 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:51,480 Speaker 2: everything was a panic throw, and it just did not 568 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 2: feel like from the start of the season to end 569 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:55,760 Speaker 2: of the season that he got a whole lot better. 570 00:29:56,040 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 1: Let me tell you something, Ty, if you watch college 571 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 1: Jeopardy and you do super well, is it as impressive 572 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:10,280 Speaker 1: necessarily as winning regular Jeopardy. Not necessarily, No, but do 573 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 1: you still win money and win an episode of Jeopardy. 574 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 1: I have no idea where you're going with this, but yes, 575 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:20,080 Speaker 1: the answer is yes. I'm saying basically, mastering Jimbo Fisher's 576 00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:23,080 Speaker 1: offense is probably more impressive than mastering Willie Taggart's as 577 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 1: a quarterback. But if the end result is the same, 578 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 1: and that's winning ACC games much more often than not, 579 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 1: who really cares? Ty? Who really cares? And I think 580 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 1: James Blackman might just be a college Jeopardy guy right now, 581 00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 1: and that's fine, that's wonderful. I think he can thrive 582 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:44,680 Speaker 1: in this offense, Okay, especially with perhaps the most talented 583 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:47,120 Speaker 1: running back talented, not the most prolific, but the most 584 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 1: talented running back in the ACC next to him. 585 00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 2: I like DeAndre Francois more. Okay, I was not impressed 586 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 2: at all with James Blackman in what I saw of him. 587 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 2: You mentioned that he's big than DeAndre Francois, and that 588 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 2: might be true, but he was like six' five one 589 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 2: seventy a year. 590 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 1: Ago it's. 591 00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 2: TRUE i mean there's a lot of exposed torso there 592 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:12,240 Speaker 2: that can be taken. 593 00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 1: OUT i wish we had done a spring practice fantasy 594 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 1: things like mini.

Extraordinary now you can add 600 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 1: functionally good, bulk that's.

Out but nobody will ever 678 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 2: Fault Matt canada for not having varied experience across the. 679 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:27,440 Speaker 2: Country and now for him to come in to That 680 00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:30,680 Speaker 2: maryland team WITH i think an interesting personnel group provided 681 00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:33,879 Speaker 2: they can stay. Healthy oh my, god TY i am 682 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:37,520 Speaker 2: secretly very excited about what he can do BECAUSE i 683 00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:40,359 Speaker 2: think it's a really good. Fit, OKAY i think it's 684 00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:44,239 Speaker 2: a good fit because what's his, Stick Matt? 685 00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:48,560 Speaker 1: Canada the fly sweep, action the motion, Right, yeah a 686 00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:50,279 Speaker 1: lot of a lot of, motions a lot of trying 687 00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:51,919 Speaker 1: to stretch linebackers to open things. 688 00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:54,960 Speaker 2: Up maybe it's that the motions creating emotion for. 689 00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:55,439 Speaker 1: ME i don't. 690 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:58,040 Speaker 2: Know but got a lot of guys moving around pre, 691 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:00,960 Speaker 2: snap tries to create. Confusion he loves the jet sweep 692 00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:03,840 Speaker 2: to fall that, stuff, right trying to stretch your defense 693 00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:07,719 Speaker 2: outside to side to create opportunities down the. Field WHAT 694 00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:12,400 Speaker 2: i like about the Setup Dan Borton Schlager definitely Not, 695 00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:16,919 Speaker 2: bortschlager definitely not. That. Okay the offense has a bunch 696 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:19,320 Speaker 2: of guys with good speed who can make you. Miss 697 00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:24,680 Speaker 2: true Ty, Johnson anthony, McFarlane Dj. Turner Matt canada is 698 00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 2: gonna be in a position where he can try out 699 00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 2: some different stuff this year because of these. Guys the 700 00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:36,399 Speaker 2: caveat is Health. Maryland everybody got hurt From maryland last. 701 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:38,759 Speaker 2: Year they, did and we're not fully going to know 702 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:42,480 Speaker 2: the health Of, Tyrrell Pigram Cassim hill at quarterback till 703 00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:43,880 Speaker 2: like later in the. Year they're not going to do 704 00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:46,719 Speaker 2: anything the. Spring both of them tore acls last. Year 705 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 2: the offensive line might be healthier later in the. Year 706 00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:52,919 Speaker 2: if this all comes, together it's going to happen late. 707 00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:57,280 Speaker 2: Summer it's gonna happen all at, once assuming good. Health 708 00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:01,360 Speaker 2: it seems Like Matt canada could build a, sneaky dangerous 709 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:05,560 Speaker 2: ground attack here At maryland with a lot of guys 710 00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:06,919 Speaker 2: that have interesting skill. 711 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:10,000 Speaker 1: Sets So maryland is on a winning streak Against texas 712 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:13,000 Speaker 1: and they opened up the season with. THEM i believe 713 00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:15,560 Speaker 1: it's at home In College. Park the good news about their, 714 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:17,759 Speaker 1: Schedule AND i think there's some merit to what you're, 715 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:21,080 Speaker 1: saying Because Penn state's defense should be a step, worse, 716 00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:23,880 Speaker 1: yes sure than where they Were Ohio. STATE i mean 717 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:25,600 Speaker 1: they closed the season With Ohio state And Penn. State 718 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:28,600 Speaker 1: But Ohio state has had this other worldly pass rush 719 00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 1: that probably won't be quite the, same but they've recruited 720 00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 1: at such a crazy high level that maybe it'll be 721 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:35,120 Speaker 1: that way by the end of the. Season but big, 722 00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:36,919 Speaker 1: picture we're not going to do any sort of deep 723 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:39,719 Speaker 1: dive Into maryland. Schedule they do not have until That 724 00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:41,560 Speaker 1: Ohio State Penn state at the end of the season 725 00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:44,560 Speaker 1: two real tough games in a row at any, point 726 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:48,240 Speaker 1: so hopefully things don't get. Compounded hopefully they have bounced 727 00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:51,400 Speaker 1: back opportunities if things go, wrong if there are, injuries 728 00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:55,040 Speaker 1: hopefully their minor if they, Exist maryland should be in 729 00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:58,600 Speaker 1: an okay place with a promising offensive. COORDINATOR i think 730 00:38:58,640 --> 00:38:59,200 Speaker 1: that's a good pick. 731 00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 2: TIME i THINK i think that will be a tremendously 732 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 2: fascinating story to. 733 00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:07,440 Speaker 1: Watch, yeah that's sort of under the. 734 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:11,480 Speaker 2: RADAR i would imagine bull Threat maryland definitely definitely all, 735 00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:13,200 Speaker 2: right where are you going by Low. 736 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:18,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go With, texas not, Necessarily, Yeah i'm jumping 737 00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:20,440 Speaker 1: on the tile to Rent texas. 738 00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:23,600 Speaker 2: Horse are you saying That texas is Still texas or 739 00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:26,480 Speaker 2: will return to Being texas Under Tom, HERMAN. 740 00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:30,000 Speaker 1: I am saying the. Following i'm, saying in terms of 741 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 1: things they can't, Control texas is in a pretty good. 742 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:38,360 Speaker 1: Spot in terms of things they have been able to control, 743 00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 1: personnel namely young. Personnel, recruiting they've controlled it very. Well 744 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:47,080 Speaker 1: they were able to hold on to perhaps their most important, 745 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:50,359 Speaker 1: recruit and that is Keeping Todd. Orlando they give him 746 00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:52,719 Speaker 1: a sizeable. Bonus and we saw the second half of 747 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,200 Speaker 1: you know what that defense looked. Like it was something 748 00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:58,480 Speaker 1: called it was light it was a lightning. DEFENSE i 749 00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:03,080 Speaker 1: forget it was lightning dime whatever it. Was they like 750 00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:05,520 Speaker 1: kept five or six DB's on the field the whole, 751 00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:08,799 Speaker 1: time and Ordinarily i'd be pretty. Worried No Holton, hill 752 00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:11,400 Speaker 1: No Deshaun, elliott No Puna ford up. Front we loved 753 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:13,319 Speaker 1: what do we call, him the mini, Fridge jini. Fridge, 754 00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:16,960 Speaker 1: yeah but they recruited well. Enough and Brecken hager's still. 755 00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:19,720 Speaker 1: There Gary, johnson whose name sounds like he's a state? 756 00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:24,799 Speaker 1: Comtroller do states have? Controllers is it a county? Thing they? 757 00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:27,000 Speaker 2: Could Gary johnson ran for, president. 758 00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:30,479 Speaker 1: That's, True that's why the name is so. Familiar, yeah 759 00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:32,800 Speaker 1: but there's a ton of talent and that's the position 760 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:35,200 Speaker 1: of the. Position group of strength last year in the 761 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:39,239 Speaker 1: recruiting class was DEFENSIVE, bac namely. Safety so they bring 762 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:41,680 Speaker 1: in a ton of talent. There Herb hand comes in 763 00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:43,239 Speaker 1: to coach the offensive. LINE i know they got the 764 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:46,240 Speaker 1: grad transfer the big offensive. Lineman even with Losing Connor. 765 00:40:46,239 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 1: Williams i'm worried about the offensive. Line they have crazy 766 00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:56,319 Speaker 1: talent talent or maybe crazy talent Options at, Quarterback i'm 767 00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:59,120 Speaker 1: still worried about quarterback Four, texas but they add in 768 00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:02,759 Speaker 1: two blue chip quarters that are early. Enrollees SO i 769 00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:05,000 Speaker 1: don't think they're going to stick with any one guy 770 00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:07,759 Speaker 1: if it's not working out In. September because that's what 771 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:10,360 Speaker 1: we've seen from This Tim beck And Tom herman. Offense 772 00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:14,160 Speaker 1: the thing that they can't control that is. Advantageous look 773 00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:18,960 Speaker 1: at the big twelve quarterback situation outside Of, texas it's not. 774 00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:25,880 Speaker 1: Wonderful Mason Rudolph Oklahoma state. Gone Baker, mayfield generational quarterback 775 00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:29,760 Speaker 1: for The sooners. Gone where's he? Gone? Yeah Kyler murray 776 00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:33,040 Speaker 1: will probably be fun and, exciting but we don't. Know 777 00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:36,520 Speaker 1: we don't, know and he had some off field issues At. 778 00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:38,920 Speaker 1: TEXAS a and m are really on field issues with 779 00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:41,239 Speaker 1: dealing with coaches and discipline At TEXAS a AND m 780 00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:43,800 Speaker 1: that we hope doesn't rear its ugly head again In. 781 00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:48,879 Speaker 1: Norman but that's An oklahoma team that defensively they can 782 00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:50,799 Speaker 1: be had a little bit, ty and they lost big 783 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:53,120 Speaker 1: pieces on that side of the. Ball, Okay, Taylor i'm 784 00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:56,200 Speaker 1: not going to be super excited ABOUT tcu is going 785 00:41:56,200 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 1: to have a new quarterback situation WITH Qb frogs whatever he's. 786 00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:05,160 Speaker 1: Gone Sean ROBINSON i, like but it's a, question and 787 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:06,200 Speaker 1: it's a real. 788 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:09,520 Speaker 2: Question my question About, texas, though, yes is they have 789 00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:10,279 Speaker 2: some turnover on. 790 00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:10,840 Speaker 1: Defense. 791 00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:15,040 Speaker 2: Correct how Will Todd orlando deal with? That you, Know 792 00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:19,080 Speaker 2: Malik jefferson leaving for THE nfl. Enormous they need some 793 00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:23,120 Speaker 2: leadership on that, defense which sometimes takes a few weeks to. 794 00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:28,160 Speaker 2: Materialize it does, help, though to your point that quarterback 795 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:31,560 Speaker 2: as a whole in The big twelve is very much 796 00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:32,239 Speaker 2: a position of. 797 00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 1: NEED i think they should be able to Eat. MARYLAND 798 00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:36,960 Speaker 1: i think they should be able to start a new 799 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:41,520 Speaker 1: winning streak Against maryland and because of this. Defense what 800 00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:43,600 Speaker 1: strange to me About, texas which is Why i'm not 801 00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:45,279 Speaker 1: fully on. Board But i'm buying low in terms of. 802 00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:47,360 Speaker 1: Improvement they go seven and six last year thanks to 803 00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:49,080 Speaker 1: a bowl. WIN i think it was Against missouri and 804 00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 1: The Texas. Bowl the thing THAT i like About texas 805 00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:56,120 Speaker 1: is that. Defense the thing and quarterback depth frankly at this, 806 00:42:56,200 --> 00:43:00,560 Speaker 1: point but the thing that confuses. Me they don't have arunning. Back, 807 00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:05,680 Speaker 1: no they. DON'T i don't know how The Texas longhorns, 808 00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:09,120 Speaker 1: ever don't have three dudes who you're, like who's gonna 809 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:12,160 Speaker 1: get the? Ball there's so much talent since don to 810 00:43:12,239 --> 00:43:14,400 Speaker 1: forman a couple of years, ago it just seems like 811 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:17,560 Speaker 1: the running back depth. CHART i know there's there's promising 812 00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:21,080 Speaker 1: guys on certain, levels but they should it should look 813 00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:24,799 Speaker 1: like you know what LSU's running back depth chart has looked. 814 00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:26,880 Speaker 1: Like it should look like What alabama's has looked. Like 815 00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:30,040 Speaker 1: there's just too much talent there for there ever to 816 00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:34,320 Speaker 1: be a question of Does texas have a guy that 817 00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:36,880 Speaker 1: seems so weird to? Me so that'll be interesting to 818 00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 1: me and see what Herb hand's influence is as he's 819 00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:43,080 Speaker 1: his running games have been very good everywhere he's.

Problem Ronnie anderson steps. Up 845 00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:10,040 Speaker 1: But Baker mayfield running that offense was such a high 846 00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:15,160 Speaker 1: degree of football beauty that even If Kyler murray is pretty, 847 00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:18,520 Speaker 1: good there are so many questions about this defense who, 848 00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:21,880 Speaker 1: Lost like the actual two good. Pieces the pass rushers 849 00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:24,960 Speaker 1: that they had were so leaky and it didn't really 850 00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:27,760 Speaker 1: matter until like the final eighteen seconds of The georgia, 851 00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:32,200 Speaker 1: game THAT i think without that talent on, offense and 852 00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:35,560 Speaker 1: the fact That Lincoln riley is still coaching a staff 853 00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:38,719 Speaker 1: that he didn't really, hire it's it's still sort of 854 00:45:38,719 --> 00:45:42,360 Speaker 1: a holdover, situation so it's not really his full, vision it. 855 00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:45,440 Speaker 1: Seems once he gets to that, POINT i Think i'm 856 00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:47,880 Speaker 1: going to be all. In this is just selling high 857 00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:51,200 Speaker 1: On oklahoma as a playoff contenency because that's where they've. 858 00:45:51,239 --> 00:45:55,040 Speaker 1: Been SO i See oklahoma as a top twenty team right. 859 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:57,480 Speaker 1: Now but if they finish the, season you, know seventeen, 860 00:45:57,520 --> 00:46:00,719 Speaker 1: eighteen nineteen in the in the in any of the, 861 00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:04,799 Speaker 1: rankings then that will seem about right considering what they've 862 00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:05,480 Speaker 1: had to turn. 863 00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:08,759 Speaker 2: OVER i think we're actually of one mind on this. 864 00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:12,439 Speaker 2: ISSUE i didn't Go, oklahoma but my reasoning is very very. 865 00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:15,440 Speaker 2: Similar as you, know there are a lot of reasons 866 00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:18,560 Speaker 2: you can sell high on, something and not all of 867 00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:21,080 Speaker 2: them are because you think something's going to instantly, tank, 868 00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:24,920 Speaker 2: Right especially on this, show we don't always like to 869 00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:27,759 Speaker 2: highlight the. Negative we try to look at things. Positively, 870 00:46:28,239 --> 00:46:31,439 Speaker 2: yeah And i'm not going to root for. Anything there's 871 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:34,399 Speaker 2: a ton positive About. Oklahoma oh, Yeah, yeah, Absolutely i'm 872 00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:36,440 Speaker 2: just not going to root for anything to instantly. Tank 873 00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:39,160 Speaker 2: the other reason that you can sell high IS i 874 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:42,160 Speaker 2: think for the reason that you're Going oklahoma. Here sometimes 875 00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:44,080 Speaker 2: you just want to cash in your chips when you've 876 00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:47,600 Speaker 2: got a. Profit, sure, yeah been on a. Heater that's 877 00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:49,560 Speaker 2: sort of HOW i feel WITH ucf right. 878 00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:50,040 Speaker 1: Now in their. 879 00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:54,280 Speaker 2: Offense, sure their offense led the nation last year forty 880 00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:58,640 Speaker 2: eight points per, game which is, incredible second only Two 881 00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:00,000 Speaker 2: oklahoma in yards per. 882 00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:02,640 Speaker 1: Play the numbers were ridiculous off the. 883 00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:06,759 Speaker 2: Charts now they brought in another offensive minded guy In 884 00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:12,239 Speaker 2: Josh Houppel Hoypool oklahoma connection by the, Way, yeah to 885 00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:16,120 Speaker 2: run the program Because Scott frost went up To. Nebraska my, 886 00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:19,440 Speaker 2: question and the one THAT i think ultimately led me 887 00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:22,000 Speaker 2: in this, direction is how much better can they really 888 00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:25,799 Speaker 2: get an? Offense, Sure i'm not selling BECAUSE i think 889 00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:30,120 Speaker 2: it all goes off the, cliff But Mackenzie milton thirty 890 00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:34,200 Speaker 2: seven touchdowns over four thousand. Yards the offensive line has 891 00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:36,640 Speaker 2: a lot coming, back plenty of talent at running. Back 892 00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:40,360 Speaker 2: defense maybe an, issue but we're not talking about defense. 893 00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:43,799 Speaker 2: Here there's a lot of firepower on, offense And i'm 894 00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:47,000 Speaker 2: sure they'll be very. Good i'm just not nearly as 895 00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:52,239 Speaker 2: fired up About hoypol as i Am Scott. Frost maybe 896 00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:55,239 Speaker 2: it's a me. THING i don't, know But i'm just 897 00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:57,560 Speaker 2: wondering how much better it could possibly. 898 00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:01,520 Speaker 1: Get it stopped me when you get to WHEN i 899 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:04,560 Speaker 1: get to a defense that is ON ucf. Schedule AND 900 00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:06,680 Speaker 1: i don't disagree with what you're, saying BUT i think 901 00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:09,759 Speaker 1: it might be hard to discern because they bring back 902 00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:13,279 Speaker 1: such a good quarterback and you, know a roster of 903 00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:15,880 Speaker 1: players that have succeeded on such a high level in 904 00:48:15,960 --> 00:48:20,760 Speaker 1: terms of. Production Yukon South Carolina, State North CAROLINA, fau 905 00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:23,120 Speaker 1: WHICH i mean THAT i cannot wait for that.

NO i like USF's, defense but there's 908 00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:40,839 Speaker 1: nobody that jumps out immediately as, Like, okay that's gonna 909 00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:43,160 Speaker 1: be a big. Test. Yeah, no you're coming off a 910 00:48:43,239 --> 00:48:47,280 Speaker 1: win Against auburn against moving the ball Against. Auburn granted 911 00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:50,600 Speaker 1: a bowl, game but same. Players this wasn't An AUBURN 912 00:48:50,719 --> 00:48:53,600 Speaker 1: b TEAM i. LIKE i like THE ucf. 913 00:48:53,680 --> 00:48:58,320 Speaker 2: Team this, offense led By Mackenzie milton in the passing 914 00:48:58,360 --> 00:49:01,480 Speaker 2: game was that something like ten point two yards per? 915 00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:04,879 Speaker 2: Attempt to very much a big play, team all. RIGHT 916 00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:07,560 Speaker 2: i just don't know how much better they can? Do, 917 00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:10,960 Speaker 2: sure and SO i am.

Here 927 00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:42,320 Speaker 2: we both reached into the, hat both reached deep into 928 00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:46,240 Speaker 2: the dark corners of our minds to find a wild 929 00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:48,279 Speaker 2: card question that didn't really fit into any of these. 930 00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:50,840 Speaker 2: Categories correct or maybe in my case it sort of. 931 00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:54,719 Speaker 2: Did what's your wild card? Question now as we enter, Spring. 932 00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:58,840 Speaker 1: So we've reached the, point AND i think pretty. Fairly 933 00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:02,560 Speaker 1: and as we've seen coaches evolve throughout the, years knowing 934 00:50:02,560 --> 00:50:04,640 Speaker 1: that they don't have all that much, time they could be. 935 00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:07,640 Speaker 1: Fired you know two years after reaching a national championship 936 00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:10,680 Speaker 1: game that there is more and more pressure to get 937 00:50:10,680 --> 00:50:14,880 Speaker 1: the best players on the, field regardless of, age regardless of. Experience, 938 00:50:14,960 --> 00:50:20,160 Speaker 1: okay and we've seen situations really work.

Now And Justin fields At 984 00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:13,160 Speaker 2: georgia to me is something THAT i find a bit confounding. 985 00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:15,240 Speaker 1: That there's some off the charts confidence. 986 00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:17,200 Speaker 2: There oh there really is for him to go To 987 00:53:17,239 --> 00:53:21,640 Speaker 2: georgia at, all to me was a questionable decision given 988 00:53:21,680 --> 00:53:25,240 Speaker 2: the success That Jake from, had and ESPECIALLY i think 989 00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:30,960 Speaker 2: given What Kirby smart was witnessed to At, alabama a 990 00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:34,160 Speaker 2: lot of quarterbacks that were similar To Jake from, right 991 00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:37,319 Speaker 2: a guy who can go out there and be at 992 00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:39,200 Speaker 2: least to start a little bit more than a game 993 00:53:39,239 --> 00:53:42,839 Speaker 2: manager and still take a team to incredible. Heights Jake 994 00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:46,160 Speaker 2: fromb's only going to continue to, improve even if he 995 00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:48,960 Speaker 2: doesn't have quite the skill set of a guy Like Justin. 996 00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:51,359 Speaker 1: Fields. MAN i Love jake From i'm not a bad. 997 00:53:51,400 --> 00:53:53,279 Speaker 2: Option he's a really good. Option he got them into 998 00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:57,279 Speaker 2: The national. Championship, yeah he almost won The national Champions. 999 00:53:57,080 --> 00:53:58,520 Speaker 1: And he wasn't just handing the ball, off and he 1000 00:53:58,520 --> 00:54:02,160 Speaker 1: wasn't just shown. Down we're going down field accurately and. 1001 00:54:02,280 --> 00:54:06,640 Speaker 2: Confidently when the season started And Jacob eason got, hurt, 1002 00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:10,400 Speaker 2: yeah everyone expected That from who was a true freshman 1003 00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:12,799 Speaker 2: in his own ride a year, ago would come in 1004 00:54:12,840 --> 00:54:15,480 Speaker 2: there and be a game. Manager he would hand the 1005 00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:18,200 Speaker 2: ball off To Sony michelle And Nick chubb they would 1006 00:54:18,239 --> 00:54:20,480 Speaker 2: win with, defense and for a while that is sort 1007 00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:23,520 Speaker 2: of what they. Did but he got better and it 1008 00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:26,360 Speaker 2: became more apparent as the year wore. On this is 1009 00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:28,560 Speaker 2: a kid who can make all the. Throws he wasn't 1010 00:54:28,600 --> 00:54:30,880 Speaker 2: turning the ball. Over he was very efficient with the. 1011 00:54:30,880 --> 00:54:36,040 Speaker 2: Football and it WAS i think that propensity to stay within, 1012 00:54:36,120 --> 00:54:39,560 Speaker 2: himself to not make mistakes that Got georgia to the 1013 00:54:39,560 --> 00:54:41,920 Speaker 2: playoff and to The national champ day again almost won 1014 00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:44,960 Speaker 2: the national. Championship how do you do much better than? 1015 00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:50,640 Speaker 1: THAT i don't, Know And i'm curious because there is, 1016 00:54:50,719 --> 00:54:53,239 Speaker 1: this you, know Because georgia's recruited so, well we'll stick 1017 00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:56,080 Speaker 1: With georgia because they haven't won the national championship recently 1018 00:54:56,080 --> 00:55:00,839 Speaker 1: Like clemson. Has but If jake prom, struggles how much 1019 00:55:00,880 --> 00:55:05,200 Speaker 1: of you, know how much amnesia Is Kirby smart willing to? Endure, 1020 00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:09,520 Speaker 1: yeah to, say you, know he's not great right, now 1021 00:55:09,560 --> 00:55:12,360 Speaker 1: but we've seen, him you, know over the course of 1022 00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:15,160 Speaker 1: a season get his act together and improve and turn 1023 00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:17,799 Speaker 1: into a you, know a top ten quarterback in the. 1024 00:55:17,840 --> 00:55:21,600 Speaker 1: Country i'm curious to, see you. Know and that'll also 1025 00:55:21,640 --> 00:55:23,600 Speaker 1: depend on justin fields and the rest of the depth. 1026 00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:27,320 Speaker 1: Chart but how much belief given the pressure That Kirby 1027 00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:30,680 Speaker 1: smart will be under to win and be a nationally 1028 00:55:30,800 --> 00:55:34,439 Speaker 1: contending team year in and year, out will he sort 1029 00:55:34,440 --> 00:55:36,320 Speaker 1: of look back At Justin fields and wonder if he 1030 00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:38,520 Speaker 1: Should AND i don't. THINK i don't Think Davos swiney 1031 00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:41,720 Speaker 1: is under quite that. Pressure, no because. ISN'T i don't 1032 00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:46,080 Speaker 1: think that there's a belief That Kelly bryant is you, 1033 00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:48,880 Speaker 1: know you hate the, comparison BUT i don't think people 1034 00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:50,920 Speaker 1: believe he Is Deshaun watson in terms of what he 1035 00:55:50,960 --> 00:55:53,799 Speaker 1: can look like at his absolute, Best WHEREAS i think 1036 00:55:53,960 --> 00:55:57,200 Speaker 1: there is the belief because, again the most popular player 1037 00:55:57,200 --> 00:55:59,480 Speaker 1: on a squad is the backup quarterback who's nobody's seen. 1038 00:55:59,560 --> 00:56:03,400 Speaker 1: Throw but the belief That Trevor lawrence could Be Deshaun, 1039 00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:05,200 Speaker 1: WATSON i think right now is more. 1040 00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:08,920 Speaker 2: ROBUST i would agree with. YOU i Think Kelly bryan 1041 00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:13,520 Speaker 2: is probably more. Susceptible, yeah at this, POINT i think that's. 1042 00:56:13,600 --> 00:56:17,000 Speaker 2: Right i'm also going, to, yeah what's your wildcard the 1043 00:56:17,120 --> 00:56:20,839 Speaker 2: quarterback side of? Things WHEN i asked the, Question, dan 1044 00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:24,240 Speaker 2: what Does Wilton spate do in twenty? 1045 00:56:24,280 --> 00:56:29,520 Speaker 1: Eighteen is he waiting On Shaye patterson and the. Decision 1046 00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:30,720 Speaker 1: is that what's, Happening. 1047 00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:33,680 Speaker 2: Well it's fascinating to. Me there's like game THEORY i 1048 00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:38,239 Speaker 2: think here With Wilton. Spate first, off if you hear 1049 00:56:38,320 --> 00:56:42,759 Speaker 2: this and reflexively wonder how old Is Wilton, spate that's 1050 00:56:42,800 --> 00:56:45,800 Speaker 2: a fair, Question. Dan he turns twenty four In. December 1051 00:56:46,280 --> 00:56:51,680 Speaker 2: he is technically a grad transfer candidate this, season and 1052 00:56:51,920 --> 00:56:55,200 Speaker 2: it's just it's interesting on a bunch of different. Levels All, 1053 00:56:55,280 --> 00:56:58,120 Speaker 2: right he can be a grad transfer if he wants, 1054 00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:01,600 Speaker 2: to and it sounds like he's interested in kicking the 1055 00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:03,600 Speaker 2: tires finding out what's available to. 1056 00:57:03,760 --> 00:57:06,320 Speaker 1: Him but it also all right, now, Ty. 1057 00:57:06,360 --> 00:57:09,319 Speaker 2: Yeah it also feels like he'd really like to come 1058 00:57:09,360 --> 00:57:11,799 Speaker 2: back To michigan and give it one more, go but 1059 00:57:11,880 --> 00:57:14,480 Speaker 2: only if there's a job for him at. Quarterback and 1060 00:57:14,520 --> 00:57:17,240 Speaker 2: that's where it gets a little, muddy because you may 1061 00:57:17,320 --> 00:57:19,080 Speaker 2: or may not have heard of the Whole Shape patterson 1062 00:57:19,160 --> 00:57:23,120 Speaker 2: thing and how that comes into. Play But Shaye patterson 1063 00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:27,080 Speaker 2: transferring away From ole Miss good quarterback just completed his 1064 00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:32,680 Speaker 2: sophomore season At Ole Miss good quarterback transferring away and 1065 00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:36,680 Speaker 2: out Of oxford because of the fallout from The Hugh freeze. Firing, 1066 00:57:37,360 --> 00:57:39,800 Speaker 2: normally when you transfer away you have to sit out a, 1067 00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:43,720 Speaker 2: year that's the. Rule but he filed the case with THE. 1068 00:57:43,800 --> 00:57:46,840 Speaker 2: Ncaa he says he should be able to play right 1069 00:57:46,840 --> 00:57:51,200 Speaker 2: away because he was, misled correct misled about the severity 1070 00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:53,480 Speaker 2: of the sanctions that were coming down Against old miss 1071 00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:55,000 Speaker 2: after the Whole Hugh freeze. 1072 00:57:55,080 --> 00:57:56,520 Speaker 1: Thing he's got a. 1073 00:57:56,600 --> 00:58:01,480 Speaker 2: Case his lawyers are encouraged at least by the reaction 1074 00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:04,560 Speaker 2: and the line of questioning that he's gotten from the NC. 1075 00:58:04,640 --> 00:58:08,080 Speaker 2: Doublea But michigan just put this waiver in at THE 1076 00:58:08,440 --> 00:58:11,840 Speaker 2: i think end Of. February there is really no telling 1077 00:58:12,680 --> 00:58:16,200 Speaker 2: when the official verdict is gonna come, down, Right so 1078 00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:18,160 Speaker 2: at this point when we're doing the show in Early, 1079 00:58:18,200 --> 00:58:21,240 Speaker 2: april it seems, promising but, frankly we don't. 1080 00:58:21,280 --> 00:58:24,800 Speaker 1: Know, yeah and And michigan has. Options this is not a. 1081 00:58:25,240 --> 00:58:28,640 Speaker 1: Binary it's not one or the. 1082 00:58:28,680 --> 00:58:34,560 Speaker 2: Other because a side Of Welton, spate who maybe could 1083 00:58:34,600 --> 00:58:37,000 Speaker 2: stay if you, wanted and a side Of Shaye. Patterson 1084 00:58:37,520 --> 00:58:40,560 Speaker 2: you've also Got Brandon, peters who we saw a little 1085 00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:42,080 Speaker 2: bit of at the end of the year last. 1086 00:58:42,120 --> 00:58:44,600 Speaker 1: Year what a roller coaster of The Brandon peters. Experience 1087 00:58:45,680 --> 00:58:48,640 Speaker 1: starting out with it was like, OOH i, wonder like 1088 00:58:48,680 --> 00:58:52,320 Speaker 1: oh my, god is? He and then it was oh, no, no, no, no, 1089 00:58:52,320 --> 00:58:53,520 Speaker 1: no no, no. 1090 00:58:53,400 --> 00:58:55,720 Speaker 2: It was still a young, kid right still only absolutely, 1091 00:58:56,040 --> 00:58:56,680 Speaker 2: yes he. 1092 00:58:56,720 --> 00:58:58,919 Speaker 1: Was he was thrust into a situation as a third 1093 00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:02,000 Speaker 1: string that he was not fully ready. 1094 00:59:02,040 --> 00:59:05,040 Speaker 2: For and then there's Also dylan McCaffrey who's got a 1095 00:59:05,040 --> 00:59:08,480 Speaker 2: little bit of status and name recognition because his, brother 1096 00:59:08,640 --> 00:59:11,800 Speaker 2: his older Brother christian obviously was all ruled everything At. 1097 00:59:11,800 --> 00:59:15,960 Speaker 2: Stanford so he's another, guy a highly, regarded highly recruited 1098 00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:19,120 Speaker 2: quarterback who opted to play For Jim. 1099 00:59:19,160 --> 00:59:22,640 Speaker 1: Harbaugh, yes and the wildest of cards in this stepth, 1100 00:59:22,760 --> 00:59:23,080 Speaker 1: CHART i. 1101 00:59:23,080 --> 00:59:26,120 Speaker 2: Think, oh so nobody knows for. Sure, again just to, 1102 00:59:26,200 --> 00:59:29,120 Speaker 2: recap when THE ncaa is going to make their ruling 1103 00:59:29,200 --> 00:59:32,000 Speaker 2: On Shape, PATTERSON i think if he can play right, 1104 00:59:32,040 --> 00:59:37,479 Speaker 2: away he's probably the. Guy is that? Fair Wilton spate 1105 00:59:37,560 --> 00:59:38,760 Speaker 2: is not better Than Shape, patterson? 1106 00:59:38,840 --> 00:59:41,720 Speaker 1: RIGHT i think? SO i think in terms of, ceiling 1107 00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:45,160 Speaker 1: in terms of because of what This michigan team returns 1108 00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:48,000 Speaker 1: on both sides of the, Ball Shape patterson is the 1109 00:59:48,080 --> 00:59:50,200 Speaker 1: most ready to win A Big ten. 1110 00:59:50,280 --> 00:59:54,400 Speaker 2: Championship, yes but If Shape patterson isn't allowed to, play 1111 00:59:55,760 --> 00:59:59,760 Speaker 2: there's clearly a clearer path For Wilton. Spate it might 1112 00:59:59,800 --> 01:00:03,440 Speaker 2: be of a controversial decision For Jim, harbaugh but you, 1113 01:00:03,480 --> 01:00:06,680 Speaker 2: know like that's when you get into what makes sense 1114 01:00:06,720 --> 01:00:10,479 Speaker 2: for the. Program Because harbaugh's probably more comfortable With, spad 1115 01:00:10,520 --> 01:00:13,520 Speaker 2: he's had more time with. Him it's just That michigan 1116 01:00:13,560 --> 01:00:16,440 Speaker 2: needs a lot more production at the quarterback. Position right, 1117 01:00:16,480 --> 01:00:18,360 Speaker 2: then they've gotten over the last couple of, years which 1118 01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:21,560 Speaker 2: did Include Wilton spate to some, degree and so at 1119 01:00:21,600 --> 01:00:23,760 Speaker 2: that point then we're talking, like all, right, well could 1120 01:00:23,760 --> 01:00:26,800 Speaker 2: he turn it over To Brandon, peters who we saw 1121 01:00:26,800 --> 01:00:28,920 Speaker 2: a little bit last year towards the end, again could 1122 01:00:29,440 --> 01:00:31,880 Speaker 2: we maybe go young and fresh with this thing With 1123 01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:35,040 Speaker 2: dylan McCaffrey, again one of the top quarterbacks in the 1124 01:00:35,120 --> 01:00:39,400 Speaker 2: nation out of high. School really no guarantees on any 1125 01:00:39,440 --> 01:00:42,000 Speaker 2: side of the. Coin, dan if You're Wilton. 1126 01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:42,480 Speaker 1: Spate what do you? 1127 01:00:42,520 --> 01:00:42,680 Speaker 2: Do? 1128 01:00:44,200 --> 01:00:48,160 Speaker 1: Man don't go To. Pitt don't do, it don't do. 1129 01:00:48,280 --> 01:00:51,760 Speaker 1: That don't go To. Pitt, yeah that's just sort of 1130 01:00:51,800 --> 01:00:54,360 Speaker 1: seems like a mess right. NOW i don't, KNOW i 1131 01:00:54,400 --> 01:00:57,040 Speaker 1: honestly don't. KNOW i, mean the UCLA's depth chart isn't 1132 01:00:57,680 --> 01:01:00,200 Speaker 1: wonderful at. Quarterback if it's a one year, thing he 1133 01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:02,240 Speaker 1: could run an. OFFENSE i, mean he's not going to 1134 01:01:02,320 --> 01:01:05,920 Speaker 1: run A Chip kelly blur running quarterback. Offense are they 1135 01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:08,360 Speaker 1: going to get him outside the? Tackles but could he 1136 01:01:08,440 --> 01:01:11,000 Speaker 1: Be Nick foles For Chip kelly in near one with The? Eagles? 1137 01:01:11,440 --> 01:01:14,600 Speaker 2: Maybe, MAYBE i JUST i guess it depends on your. 1138 01:01:14,600 --> 01:01:16,600 Speaker 2: Goal if you want to, play if you think you 1139 01:01:16,600 --> 01:01:18,200 Speaker 2: can play in THE, nfl like a lot OF d 1140 01:01:18,280 --> 01:01:18,840 Speaker 2: one kids. 1141 01:01:18,880 --> 01:01:21,960 Speaker 1: Do he's got the. Side the physical traits are there 1142 01:01:22,000 --> 01:01:23,000 Speaker 1: for the physical traits are. 1143 01:01:23,040 --> 01:01:24,840 Speaker 2: There if you think you can play in the, league 1144 01:01:25,400 --> 01:01:28,000 Speaker 2: you gotta go somewhere where you get surefire playing.
