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 --> 00:00:06,920 Speaker 1: Sports Radio Hour two. On this Wednesday, Dan and the 3 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:11,400 Speaker 1: Dan Nstan Patrick Show come on in stay awhile we'll 4 00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:14,560 Speaker 1: check in with the freshly minted Hall of Famer Chris Webber. 5 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:17,640 Speaker 1: We got to kind of sort through this because it 6 00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:21,920 Speaker 1: feels like the new regime at Michigan wants to welcome 7 00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:25,000 Speaker 1: Chris Webber back. Felt like they had a nice conversation. 8 00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:30,800 Speaker 1: Then there was some miscommunication or maybe somebody misheard something 9 00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:34,239 Speaker 1: and apologize to Chris Webber about what happened in Michigan. 10 00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:39,240 Speaker 1: Then we were told that maybe there wasn't an apology. 11 00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:43,279 Speaker 1: I mean, this is thirty years later at Michigan with 12 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:47,919 Speaker 1: Chris Webber, the freshly minted Hall of Famer will join us. 13 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,239 Speaker 1: Coming up, settle on a pull question, play of the day, 14 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,120 Speaker 1: stat of the day, all of that coming up. You know, 15 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 1: Wednesday's a tricky day during the football season because on Wednesday, 16 00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:00,040 Speaker 1: you're not necessarily looking back to Sunday, but you're not 17 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:05,560 Speaker 1: necessarily looking ahead to Sunday. The following quarterbacks talk on Tuesday. 18 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:07,679 Speaker 1: Then we have some things to talk about a little 19 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 1: bit on Wednesday, reacting to what some of these quarterbacks 20 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,399 Speaker 1: or coaches had to say, it's not like there's going 21 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: to be a lot of time spent on the Thursday 22 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 1: night game. And is it too early to start talking 23 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,600 Speaker 1: about the matchups coming up this weekend? And do you 24 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:25,480 Speaker 1: still look back on what happened on Sunday? I mean, 25 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 1: giants in Washington on Thursday night not too juicy, you'd 26 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:37,039 Speaker 1: be nice, not too juicy here, but you know, for 27 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: Washington it feels like it's a little bit juice here 28 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 1: because without Ryan Fitzpatrick, Taylor Heineke is going to be 29 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 1: in there. This is a team a lot of people 30 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 1: thought or think we'll win that division. I love how 31 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 1: these analysts have already jumped off the Washington bandwagon where 32 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 1: they go, you know what, I'm taking Dallas to win 33 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 1: the division. All it took was an injury to Ryan Fitzpatrick, 34 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 1: and you jumped off the band wagon. There were you 35 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 1: firmly seated in a good section there on that bandwagon. 36 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 1: Feels like you were sort of on the steps getting 37 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 1: on the bandwagon or getting off the bandwagon. Yes time, 38 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 1: the season's already won seventeenth over, so you can make 39 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,359 Speaker 1: those kind of picks. Age seven seven three D p 40 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: Show email address dp at Dan Patrick dot com Twitter 41 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 1: handle at dp show also mentioned that a source told 42 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,839 Speaker 1: me earlier this morning that from what he hears, there's 43 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 1: mutual interest with James Franklin at Penn State and the 44 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 1: USC vacancy. You're gonna hear a lot of names. There's 45 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 1: gonna be a lot going on. You're gonna get guys 46 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 1: who use this opportunity to get raises to stay at 47 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,800 Speaker 1: their current jobs. Happens every year. It's a big opening 48 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: and all you need to have somebody do is mention 49 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 1: your name, whether it's true or not. You can take 50 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: that all the way to the bank. Yeah, Seaton, maybe 51 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 1: that's the way James Franklin should have responded to him. 52 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:55,800 Speaker 1: I say, no, you know, I'm not going to address 53 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: these rumors. I'm just going to sort of vaguely answer 54 00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 1: questions and let them dangle out there till i can 55 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: get myself a new contract. Sunday night, Patrick Mahomes and 56 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 1: the Chiefs had to Baltimore to battle Lamar Jackson and 57 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 1: the Ravens, and the festivities start at seven Eastern only 58 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 1: on NBC. We know Aaron Rodgers moves the needle. There 59 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:15,079 Speaker 1: was a little bit of a lull when he arrived 60 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,919 Speaker 1: at camp in August, but after the Packers were blown 61 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: out by the Saints, Rogers is back in the spotline. 62 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 1: But there's a strange phenomenon with the reigning MVP. That 63 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 1: laid back, thoughtful style doesn't play for everybody. And part 64 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 1: of the problem is he is so unique. We're used 65 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: to quarterbacks spitting out cliches when they lose. Rogers won't 66 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: do much of that, but he might say something really 67 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: thoughtful or honest. I mean, that's part of the reason 68 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: why there was so much fuss about him this offseason. 69 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: This week's storyline is the whole team apparently was distracted 70 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 1: by what was going on with Rogers in the off season, 71 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: and that's why they didn't play that well against the Saints. 72 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 1: We've seen the Packers have some bad games with Rogers. 73 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: He's come back. Remember our E L A X That 74 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 1: might be Roger's signature tweet. Although he hasn't said those 75 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 1: words this week, he still gives off that vibe. I mean, 76 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: he does look like a yoga instructor, and uh, you know, 77 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: maybe this is a good thing for Green Banks. They 78 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: try to move past that Week one disaster here is 79 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers with our buddy Pat McAfee yesterday. I don't 80 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 1: like to make about excuses for interceptions. You know, there's 81 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,839 Speaker 1: some ones, there's some ones you wish you had back. 82 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 1: There's someones are really out your fault. That one was 83 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: entirely due to the double nut shot I took. They'll 84 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 1: go back and watch it. But I stepped up in 85 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 1: the pocket. I was gonna throw across my body to 86 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 1: the shallow cross, and right before I'm throwing it, I 87 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 1: took a left kind of clothesline that they you know, 88 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 1: AJ Hawker Brady preparing a clothesline, and somebody on the right, 89 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 1: you know, with the right kind of cross double nut 90 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: shot that I guess I got to overcome that. Throw 91 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:06,159 Speaker 1: a better ball, all right. Since Aaron Rodgers yesterday with 92 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: Pat McAfee and talked about one of his interceptions, you know, 93 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: as football fans, we want our team after they lose 94 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: to be angry and fired up, and you're not getting 95 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: that from Aaron Rodgers. I don't know if you ever 96 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:23,359 Speaker 1: get that from Aaron Rodgers. It always feels kind of 97 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: a library type voice, very thoughtful. You know, I'll answer 98 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 1: your question, might even give you an honest answer here, 99 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: not gonna split out, spit out cliches. But is there concern? 100 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: Should there be concerned? There should be concern because of 101 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: the schedule the Green Bay Packers have. It's like some 102 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,799 Speaker 1: of the analysts the media just realized, boy, the Packers 103 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: got a tough schedule. Yeah, it's called when the schedule 104 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 1: comes out, you look at the schedule and then you go, boy, 105 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 1: they've got a tough schedule. I've been saying this for 106 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: a couple of months now. They got a tough schedule. 107 00:05:57,760 --> 00:05:59,839 Speaker 1: But if they if they win the next three of 108 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 1: the still in disarray, but they do have a tough schedule. 109 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: They play in a bad division, but they have a 110 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: tough schedule. Win your division, host a playoff game, and 111 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: then roll the dice after that. Because you can look 112 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 1: at some of these other teams the NFC West, they're 113 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,840 Speaker 1: all going to beat up on each other. How many 114 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 1: wins are you going to have? And you got to 115 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 1: factor that in. You know, Tampa might be realizing the 116 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 1: Saints are a little bit better than they thought. But 117 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:32,039 Speaker 1: Tampa should win that division and then host a playoff 118 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,279 Speaker 1: game or two. That's what you want. When I look 119 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 1: at who I'm picking for the Super Bowl? I want 120 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,600 Speaker 1: to know, Okay, how good's the division? First? I look 121 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: at how good's your offensive and defensive lines? And do 122 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 1: I have questions about Green Bay? Yes? I do, But 123 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:51,039 Speaker 1: I'm thinking the division is not that good. So I 124 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 1: can pick off. You know, how many wins out of there? 125 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 1: Can I? Can I beat everybody? Can I beat everybody twice? Okay? 126 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 1: Then you start to look at who you're playing outside 127 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:05,719 Speaker 1: your division. They have a tough division, and then the 128 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 1: games or it'll be tough going outside the division. You know, 129 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: can Atlanta be any good? Is Carolina going to be 130 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 1: any good? So then you start to look at Tampa 131 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: and you go, you know, they could probably get thirteen 132 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:21,119 Speaker 1: wins here and then they're going to be hosting the 133 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: NFC title game. I just didn't pick Tampa because it's 134 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: so hard to repeat and everything has to go right. 135 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 1: And if I go back to when they were seven 136 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 1: and five, I don't think anybody thought that was going 137 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 1: to be a Super Bowl winning team that would win 138 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: by three touchdowns. You just didn't think that. But right 139 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 1: now it looks good. They had an impressive win against 140 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 1: the Cowboys. You know who's going to emerge out of 141 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: the NFC East. Does it matter who emerges out of 142 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 1: the NFC East. There's only probably three teams, it feels 143 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: like in the NFC who can go to the super Bowl? 144 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 1: And I still think Green Bay is one of those. 145 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 1: But we do overreact. We love to. I mean that's 146 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: part of being a fan. Either your team's great or 147 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 1: they're terrible. Yeah, plumbing. I heard some hot Jimmy Jimmerson 148 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 1: analysis this morning. An Alison National Network said Packers cannot 149 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: loose the Lions because when they drop up the game 150 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: plan in August, going oh and two was not part 151 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: of it, Which that makes sense because if any coach 152 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: plans to go oh and two, that's a bad plan. Well, 153 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 1: the Checksuns might have planned to go in two and 154 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:32,079 Speaker 1: they already screwed it again, they screwed those games. I'm 155 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,720 Speaker 1: not incompetent, yea, But nobody plans to go into in 156 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 1: this league. I don't think. Yes, yes, I know and 157 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 1: two team has never made the playoffs in the seventeen 158 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: game schedule here, Okay, thank you, than you know, all 159 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 1: those stats are all going to be confused now, Like 160 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 1: to me, is not going to know what to do 161 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: after this week. Do you know the number of people 162 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: in this business who bring up Jimmy Jimmerson. To me, 163 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: it's remarkable because we've sort of taken this combination of 164 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,959 Speaker 1: analyst and ers in what they say and how all 165 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 1: they do is just fill up the room with error. 166 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 1: That's all you want to do. You're just filling up time. 167 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 1: Hey we got an hour show here, Just fill up 168 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 1: some time there and you just start talking and somehow 169 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 1: you hope that nobody writes down what you're saying. Okay, look, 170 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 1: the Packers don't want to start this season. Oh and 171 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 1: two okay, especially you look at all the offseason turmoil. 172 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 1: Is this a cohesive unit? Um? Not a lot of 173 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:30,559 Speaker 1: padded off to you know, practices in the preseason. Um, 174 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 1: this is this is not the way they thought the 175 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 1: season would be starting at certainly not the way they 176 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 1: wanted it to start. Yes, love, Yeah, I heard today 177 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 1: that you don't really want your offensive line to be 178 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:42,719 Speaker 1: in complete, disordered, give in everything. Yeah, but see and 179 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 1: ever listening I would said there was like, yeah, you 180 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 1: really want to get your run game going? Yeah, okay, 181 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: I know you always got to get your run game going. 182 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:51,679 Speaker 1: Well after winning the turnover battle, Yeah, you gotta win 183 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 1: the turnover may more turnovers and the other team is 184 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,559 Speaker 1: always bad unless you're getting them, not giving. I heard 185 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: an analysts say Rogers, there's a couple throws he'd like 186 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 1: to have back. I went, oh, really, you imagine Aaron 187 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 1: Rodgers out of the podium. They asked to about an 188 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 1: interception goes you know, I stand by that throw. I 189 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 1: really nailed it and go where I wanted it to. 190 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: But I'm still gonna stand by Yeah.

What's 200 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 1: the poll question we're going with? Kevin Well, you said 201 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 1: that we overreact. I have a sort of ESPNY poll question, 202 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 1: which QB are you most worried about? After a week one, 203 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:54,319 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, Ryan Tannehill, Daniel Jones, by the way, is four, No, 204 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 1: it gets watching football team in his career, so he 205 00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 1: could wait out Thursday, Kirk Cousins, Matt Ryan, I think 206 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 1: Josh Allen all of a sudden, I'm a little worried. 207 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 1: Who else? Oh and Lamar Jackson worried? I put only 208 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 1: losing quarterbacks on there. Okay, you've got some MVPs there, 209 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 1: you got Rogers, Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen MVP candidates this year. Oh? 210 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 1: Who he's worried about Tannahill because nobody cares one way 211 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 1: or the other about Dan Hill. I'm sorry that he 212 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 1: is never on these shows. No, but he did have 213 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 1: a very good year last year for one of the 214 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 1: higher scoring teams in the NFL. I worry about Lamar 215 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 1: Jackson just because he doesn't have a running game. He's 216 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: trying to do too much and there's even more pressure 217 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 1: on him to do more to be able to throw 218 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 1: in the pocket. And you know, sometimes what you hear is, Hey, 219 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: they just think I'm a running quarterback. I want to 220 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: prove them wrong. I want to show I can throw well. 221 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 1: I want you to utilize what you do well. It's 222 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:00,439 Speaker 1: like Cam Newton when he came into the league. I 223 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 1: didn't think he was a great passer, but I thought 224 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 1: he was a great athlete. Let me use him for 225 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 1: as long as I can so he does what he 226 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,959 Speaker 1: does best instead of saying, you know, I'm going to 227 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 1: make you into this as opposed to taking advantage of 228 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:17,840 Speaker 1: what your skills actually are. And that's what I would 229 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: do with Lamar Jackson. Do I want him to get 230 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 1: better in the pocket, yes, more consistent, but I also 231 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 1: want to take advantage of his ability to run. I 232 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 1: just don't want I want designed running place. And Carolina 233 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 1: did this with Cam design running place. It's different than hey, 234 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 1: something just broke down. Protection broke down. Now I gotta 235 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 1: go because eventually somebody's going to tag you. Yeah, mclev. 236 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 1: But it's got to be so tempting when you're Lamar Jackson, 237 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: you know you can get this twenty yard gain. Yeah, 238 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 1: and he's untackleable, as Eli Peyton said, like you tackle 239 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 1: the guy. Well, he's thinking about that day, that moment. 240 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 1: He's not thinking about longevity. And he still hasn't gotten 241 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 1: that long term contract, that big number, you know, one 242 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: hundred millions he hadn't gotten that yet. You got to 243 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,680 Speaker 1: factor that in as well. But it's just playing smart. 244 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: And I think because of that team right now and 245 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 1: their lack of offense, I worry about Lamar Jackson. I 246 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:17,960 Speaker 1: think there's a lot of pressure on Josh Allen. I 247 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 1: said that going into the season that there was so 248 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 1: much on him and he was unbelievable last year. But 249 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:32,959 Speaker 1: they lost to Pittsburgh at home. They shouldn't lose to Pittsburgh. 250 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 1: It just feels like this is Super Bowl or bus 251 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: for Buffalo, and that's a quarterback who I don't know. 252 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 1: I worry about Josh Allen with just the enormity of 253 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 1: that on him every single game that you got to 254 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 1: produce and not I mean you want others to help you. 255 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 1: I mean Tom Brady can rely on other people. I 256 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 1: don't know if Josh Allen can rely on anybody other 257 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,959 Speaker 1: than Stefan Diggs. But Tom Brady also has a good defense, 258 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 1: and can they create turnovers? Can they give you a 259 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 1: good field position? Like those are the things you have 260 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:13,199 Speaker 1: to have sometimes. And Aaron Rodgers, they're still going to 261 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:16,560 Speaker 1: win their division. They might win in at ten and seven, 262 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: but they're going to host a playoff game and then 263 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: after that maybe you get some magic there. But if 264 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 1: you're waiting for fire and brimstone from Aaron Rodgers not 265 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 1: just not who he is, not going to happen. A 266 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 1: couple of phone calls and will take a break. Nathan 267 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 1: in Los Angeles leads us off this hour, High Nate, 268 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 1: what's on your mind to day? Hey? Dan, how's it going? Hey? Hey? 269 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 1: So I was thinking I actually got to listen to 270 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 1: a little bit of Dante Williams speak, the guy who's 271 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 1: interiming interim coach for USC, and he strikes me as 272 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 1: this kind of young, likable guy who's probably quite hungry 273 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 1: and highly motivated. Obviously they proved himself and his opportunity 274 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 1: that's been presented with. And it also strikes me that 275 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 1: kids today don't seem to kind of respond to resume. 276 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 1: They just respond. I mean, if you're Nick Saban, obviously 277 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 1: you have a resume they'll respect, but they're more interested 278 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 1: in what you bring to them in terms of attitude 279 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 1: and things like that. But how many wins do you 280 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 1: think it would take for USC to give him the 281 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 1: job rather than bring in said big name with a 282 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 1: big splash. You know that would be a big splash 283 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:29,760 Speaker 1: and a big splash city. How many wins would it 284 00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 1: take for Dante Williams to keep the job. Well, you 285 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 1: can't have bad losses. I mean, you were favored by 286 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: seventeen against Stanford, You got Notre Dame next month. You 287 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 1: can't afford an embarrassing loss. If you're competitive. You got 288 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 1: UCLA in November. But I would think you have to 289 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 1: win your side of the pack twelve at least. But 290 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 1: you know, USC fans, I get the feeling they're hoping 291 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 1: that the team is competitive, not embarrassing. But you don't 292 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 1: want that interim head coach to get the job because 293 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: this has been sort of the blueprint at USC. Let's 294 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 1: promote from within. I think that they want to go big. 295 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: I think they want to say, let's make a splash, 296 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 1: let's bring back USC football. Yeah, Seed, there does seem 297 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 1: to be a real I don't know if it's like 298 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 1: movement or a portion of the USC fan base though 299 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 1: that really likes Dante Williamson wants to see him get 300 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 1: a shot. Yeah. Well, Chris Richard is another player name 301 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 1: that was brought to my attention. Former USC player. You're 302 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 1: just going to hear a lot of names, and a 303 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 1: lot of coaches or agents for coaches will try to 304 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 1: attach their name to this job so they can get 305 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 1: their client a race. That's gonna happen as well. We'll 306 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 1: take a break. Eighteen after the hour, Hall of Famer 307 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 1: Chris Webber will join us on the program, and the 308 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 1: late Norm McDonald passed away yesterday.

From the football writers, it's really split geographically, 350 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:06,000 Speaker 1: Like California based Bruce Feldman says USC has a better job, 351 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:09,440 Speaker 1: Big Tedlo Albert Brier says Penn State's a better job. 352 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 1: Were an interesting point.

You know, Texas, Florida, in southern California. Those 358 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 1: are the those are the three hot pits. Growing up, 359 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:34,639 Speaker 1: it used to be Pennsylvania and Ohio. Penn State I 360 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:40,439 Speaker 1: think taps into New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

I played tight end, 370 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 1: and you know, once we got in the rest on, 371 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 1: I was pretty good. But I was really good, I thought, 372 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 1: But I don't know what my quarterback would say because 373 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 1: I really couldn't block that well. So UM had a 374 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: lot of fun playing football. That's my favorite sport. What 375 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,640 Speaker 1: was growing up? Did you think? Did you get recruited 376 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:34,120 Speaker 1: to play in college? You know, it's funny, I did 377 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 1: a little bit. Um A funny story. I met bold 378 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 1: shin Bectorum and I used to bring into the locker 379 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 1: room before the Game's nice to see the guys getting 380 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,400 Speaker 1: pumped up. And one day one of the guys lifted 381 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:47,640 Speaker 1: me in my legs and he was like, oh yeah, 382 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 1: oh yeah, twigs or something. I just remember being like, nah, 383 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,360 Speaker 1: I'm good and just seeing those guys that were my height. 384 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 1: But if I would have had, you know, role models 385 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 1: like US dollars or any of these tight ends that 386 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:05,679 Speaker 1: played basketball, I definitely would have tried a little bit more. 387 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 1: Besides in the street tackle on the side, Alan Iverson 388 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 1: talks about he could have played he was a better 389 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 1: football player than a basketball player. Can you see that 390 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 1: he ain't really serious about it. I mean he's almost 391 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 1: it's almost like a regret with him that he didn't 392 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:22,719 Speaker 1: get to play football. But I've seen him and Jason 393 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:27,639 Speaker 1: Williams throw a football with other football players and that 394 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,159 Speaker 1: type of thing. And I can only imagine AI with 395 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 1: how we moved mikeel bicklift up to Ai soever. You know, 396 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 1: pretty cool, But you know you were just if I 397 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 1: could change the subject one second, you're just talking about USC. 398 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 1: I don't know about you know, Slobs. I don't know 399 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 1: about his game, but his father was my point guard 400 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:46,159 Speaker 1: in high school, and so I know his father was 401 00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 1: pretty tough and he was a heck of a basketball player. 402 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:51,440 Speaker 1: So I wonder if Slovis has it in the genes. 403 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 1: But me, yeah, I would love to have been been 404 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 1: a football player. Man. The best moment of the Hall 405 00:21:56,800 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 1: of Fame weekend was what my father put my jacket 406 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:06,280 Speaker 1: on him.

Yeah, body Night like 459 00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 1: Lawrence either. So oh that is funny. So you're seeing 460 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 1: Lawrence Funderberg who's on the Indiana team, and he's saying, 461 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:09,640 Speaker 1: do not come here. Okay, then I'll be quick. So 462 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 1: I go into that locker room and then during practice 463 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,439 Speaker 1: it was crazy because they had like eight managers and 464 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 1: the managers were taking stats and practice. I had never 465 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,480 Speaker 1: seen anything like this and I was a big, big 466 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:21,639 Speaker 1: tim fan, So I wanted to meet Bobby Knight and 467 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:23,600 Speaker 1: couldn't believe he could look me in my eye. And 468 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 1: he was tall and big and on the red sweater 469 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,159 Speaker 1: and everything. And so I get the chance to go 470 00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 1: in the locker room, but all of them are hooded up. 471 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 1: Calvert Cheney. I'll never forget this. And I had a 472 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:36,640 Speaker 1: hat on, and like the guys are like, you better 473 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 1: take that hat off. Barby nightge will come here and 474 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 1: snack you in the head. Like they're staring me, teasing me. 475 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:43,359 Speaker 1: You know, I don't know what's going on, but I 476 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 1: figure out that they're joking. And then I'm like, man, 477 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:48,159 Speaker 1: it's nice. Man. I love the way that arena. The 478 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 1: seats go all the way up to the top. It's 479 00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:52,920 Speaker 1: cool here, it's cool. And Funderberger is just doing like this. 480 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 1: He's like, no, a coach comes in and he just 481 00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 1: he stops and the next year he transfers. So, you know, 482 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:02,359 Speaker 1: he saved me for me. Thinking about India, did the 483 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 1: magic recruit you to Michigan State? Yes, oh boy? And 484 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 1: you had to tell magic no. You know, as much 485 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,720 Speaker 1: as I love Isaiah, I love magic, his magic was 486 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 1: from the state. And so when I was twelve years old, 487 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 1: I go on this interview and they said, what school 488 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 1: do you want to go to I never thought about. 489 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 1: I said Michigan State because the Magic.

It was he and Kevin Willison 497 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 1: a bunch of other players, and I missed the pass 498 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 1: and hated myself and caught one and made a layup. 499 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 1: I had Pete loafers on. I mean, it's it's the 500 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,719 Speaker 1: weirdest story. But yeah, from then he would talk to 501 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: me and try to recruit me and you know all 502 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:05,679 Speaker 1: that good stuff. So yeah, I was a big fan 503 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 1: of miss mistake going talking to Chris Webber, a member 504 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,400 Speaker 1: of the Basketball Hall of Fame class, did you want 505 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:15,439 Speaker 1: to uh do what Michael Jordan did and maybe you 506 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:17,360 Speaker 1: know jab some people make it a roast when you're 507 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 1: up there. Nah, Nah, I didn't, that's just not nah. 508 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't. I did watch a bunch of speeches, 509 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 1: and I saw, you know, Michael Jordan's, I saw a 510 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,320 Speaker 1: couple of others and uh, you know, after I saw 511 00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:35,960 Speaker 1: like shocks and someone else. Top for gout who it was. 512 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 1: But it was so funny, and now I was just like, 513 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 1: just be yourself, don't try to entertain them, try to 514 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 1: do anything and lays some edge, just you know, hopefully, uh, 515 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 1: you know, be honest and get the hell about it. Then, 516 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:50,879 Speaker 1: So where do we stand with Michigan here? What's going on? 517 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:56,399 Speaker 1: You know, I don't, you know, I'm good with Michigan. 518 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 1: I'm going to the game in a couple of weeks. 519 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:03,480 Speaker 1: Uh so you know, I don't. I don't know, I'm 520 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 1: not you know, in this space goal back and forth 521 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:10,920 Speaker 1: with anything. I said the word apologize to me. He did. 522 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:14,159 Speaker 1: He said that, and maybe it was the way that 523 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 1: they came under the crawl or something. So I expect 524 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 1: him to validate what I'm saying to you right now. 525 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 1: So go to a hotel room and we need This 526 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:26,560 Speaker 1: is about five years ago. I don't know how many 527 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:30,760 Speaker 1: years ago. It's a few years ago. We go to 528 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,360 Speaker 1: the games Wisconsin week, we go meet with each other 529 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 1: and it was very nice. It's four people in the room, 530 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 1: and you know, we have copious notes of this time, 531 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 1: so everything that I'm saying is one hundred percent. And 532 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:48,320 Speaker 1: it just said, you know, we like to apologize to 533 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 1: the eighteen to the twenty year old Chris Weber. We 534 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 1: did not protect him. We understood what was going on. 535 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 1: We've done our research and it's not what was reported, 536 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 1: and we're sorry. And I said a bunch of things 537 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:06,680 Speaker 1: to that that was not contentious at anything, because he 538 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 1: didn't owe me that or it wasn't an official statement 539 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 1: or anything, but he knew and he knows, and that's 540 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 1: that's all it was. That's why I didn't say anything 541 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 1: about it then and just happen to say something about 542 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 1: it now. I mean, Ben's I'm helping, you know, I'm 543 00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 1: you know, doing all like can for Juan, younger players, 544 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 1: things like that. So I mean, I am part of 545 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 1: mission game that can't be taken away. And I love 546 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 1: the love that has come from the school, and I 547 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 1: expect all of us to be the game really so 548 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 1: and have a great time. So I think it's a 549 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:43,320 Speaker 1: I think it's in a great place. One person can't 550 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 1: make it, you know, not being a great place. It's 551 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:48,400 Speaker 1: kind of what my frame is, my frame of mind is, 552 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 1: and you know, the alumnin in school. So I'm I 553 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 1: just can't wait to get back to the game and 554 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: starting joining. So I think we're on a great place. 555 00:29:56,680 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 1: Why is this still an issue thirty years later? Then? 556 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:06,239 Speaker 1: You know, it's crazy, Um, I kind of you know, 557 00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:10,880 Speaker 1: it's funny. So in Michigan is a big thing, kind 558 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:13,960 Speaker 1: of two people outside of Detroit. So if you're in Detroit, 559 00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 1: it's never matter. Detroit is then only that sustaining of 560 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:20,040 Speaker 1: course people everywhere, But I mean Detroit's Detroit and Michigan 561 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 1: as an artist and university just you know, um, but 562 00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 1: outside of Michigan, it's not even a it's not even 563 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 1: a thing. Actually, it's you know a little bit of 564 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 1: you know, people are like a little bit mad talking 565 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 1: to me, like why are you even talking about it? 566 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,080 Speaker 1: Forget them that far, you know. So I don't know, 567 00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:40,960 Speaker 1: but I love the school. Then hopefully with everything they over, 568 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 1: I would say it's hopefully what the fame will allow 569 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 1: is there's so many new things that I've been doing, 570 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,600 Speaker 1: and wonderful things and people and all that. Hopefully it 571 00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 1: will allow new conversations or just a new place to 572 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:55,520 Speaker 1: come from. I don't know. Then I hope it doesn't 573 00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 1: continue to be that way because one quick story, when 574 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 1: I went to the game with John Harbow, he asked 575 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 1: me to come back. It was it was the best film, right, 576 00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 1: but there was this thing where the player goes and 577 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:12,000 Speaker 1: has lunch with the team, the media and everything. So 578 00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:14,720 Speaker 1: I declined all of this, And if it looked like 579 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 1: I was a jerk, but as I explained to John, 580 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,520 Speaker 1: I don't want these guys to be around me. And 581 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 1: it's polarizing, right, I don't want every question to be 582 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 1: about this and this twenty two year old kids doesn't 583 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 1: even know what we did, you know. And so that's 584 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:29,960 Speaker 1: the only thing I hate about myself is that I 585 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 1: can be used as a polarizing figure and hopefully, you know, 586 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,120 Speaker 1: just through the actions, and no one talks about the 587 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 1: hundreds of scholarships at Michigan or anything else that we've done. 588 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 1: So you know, it's a wonderful place. It's good and 589 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 1: we're gonna outlive any negativity. So I'm just happy to 590 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 1: you know, we can go back and cheer and have 591 00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 1: some football. What if Jawan Howard ask you to be 592 00:31:54,480 --> 00:32:02,960 Speaker 1: on his staff. No has ask you, no mAb's wand 593 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:06,000 Speaker 1: is so close, but no, he knows I'm not I'm 594 00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:08,480 Speaker 1: I'm not an assistant coach, and no disrespect to him. 595 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 1: But that's why we can do all we can to 596 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 1: help each other from around point of view. So I 597 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 1: think I can do more from him as a colleague, 598 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 1: as someone in basketball, someone that knows the young guys. 599 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 1: I could do more from my outside of basketball than 600 00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:26,480 Speaker 1: than in this locker room, because anytime he needs me 601 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:28,520 Speaker 1: out being the locker room, that's that's just that's just 602 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 1: to give him. You're more of a head coach. Guy. 603 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 1: I just I just have I just had aspirations on 604 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 1: my home and you know, definitely has to do with 605 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 1: with the NBA. What do you want to do when 606 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:45,760 Speaker 1: you grow up? Um, when I grow up, hopefully I 607 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,080 Speaker 1: had these two U two wins take care of me. 608 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 1: Daddy's that the entire But No, I look forward to 609 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:54,440 Speaker 1: continuing to do all the things you're doing in business. 610 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:57,880 Speaker 1: I'm really excited about it. And um, you know, hopefully 611 00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:01,280 Speaker 1: I will afford the opportunity to UH to come back 612 00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 1: to basketball. Um, you know, in a in a different 613 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,800 Speaker 1: position and hopefully one that you know can impact a 614 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:10,520 Speaker 1: team in the city and the still trying to win 615 00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 1: the championship. Do you want to be a GM No, 616 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 1: I'm going to be part of an ownership group. I 617 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:20,120 Speaker 1: want to be part of an ownership group and help 618 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 1: build a winning team. Are you close to being part 619 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 1: of an ownership group? Well, you know, I've taken two 620 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 1: shots and we missed both. One you know, almost did 621 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 1: to Kauai except it bounced off the seventh bounce. But hopefully, 622 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 1: you know, we're gonna keep We're gonna keep trying. You 623 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:39,920 Speaker 1: know we're gonna keep trying. Definitely Again. What do you 624 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 1: get from the whole fame? Yeah? Jacket? What else? Jacket? 625 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:48,560 Speaker 1: You get a ring?

But uh, the coolest thing is just being 629 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 1: able to walk around and the Hall of Fame by 630 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:07,720 Speaker 1: yourself and see your exhibits, see everything that kind of 631 00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 1: do for you, and the narratives and everything is kind 632 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,880 Speaker 1: of being done then just you know, every year, just 633 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 1: hanging out and do russ Man like this shade didn't 634 00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:20,000 Speaker 1: cackle as much. But usually you know, you've you've been 635 00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 1: a lot of a million times. I'm sure, and you know, 636 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:28,759 Speaker 1: allowed CAPI you're right, yeah, any it goes in as 637 00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 1: a coach like people don't realize being a player coach 638 00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:36,279 Speaker 1: back in the late sixties. I mean, I mean, it's 639 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:39,440 Speaker 1: really incredible to be able to Could you imagine is 640 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:44,239 Speaker 1: there somebody who could be a player coach now? I don't. 641 00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:48,759 Speaker 1: I don't know how without inciting, you know, I don't. 642 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:50,759 Speaker 1: I don't know how because I think the players have 643 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:54,160 Speaker 1: so much power that if you know, if you have 644 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,320 Speaker 1: that much power and the coach is good, it's still 645 00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:59,440 Speaker 1: kind of you know, eleven guys can to gain the 646 00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:03,040 Speaker 1: power that one superstar player. And actually, you know, I'm 647 00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:05,719 Speaker 1: not I'm not. I really don't see how he did it. Um. 648 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:07,799 Speaker 1: I think it was the respect that he commanded at 649 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:10,040 Speaker 1: the time. And I talked to players like Kareem or 650 00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:12,919 Speaker 1: you know, Spencer Haywood. He talks about the fact that 651 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:16,239 Speaker 1: he wasn't kind of accepted in basketball that you know, 652 00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:18,200 Speaker 1: they said, we have an ilegal player on the court. 653 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:21,080 Speaker 1: And it wasn't until you know, Kareem shook his hand 654 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:23,600 Speaker 1: and Bill Russell shook his hand look like this. They 655 00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:26,400 Speaker 1: had to allow him to wear the beard. Back then, 656 00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:28,799 Speaker 1: they were like, not too many players, you can't wear 657 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:31,080 Speaker 1: a beard, and so they allowed special to wear a beard. 658 00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:33,960 Speaker 1: That's the power that this man carried. The fact that 659 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:35,839 Speaker 1: you can't get facial hair and not in the NBA 660 00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:37,920 Speaker 1: unless you speak to him.
