Twins over the Cubs, Brewers are hot, Big 12 Football win Totals, Eliot Clough talks Hawkeyes · The Lunch Rush with Trent Condon

• 0:09
  Hi, good afternoon. Welcome to Miller and Condon on
• 0:12
  a Wednesday. Iowa Sports Radio Network.
• 0:15
  Trent Condon and Ken Miller, we'll talk sports with you for
• 0:18
  the next couple of hours. Thanks for starting your
• 0:20
  afternoon with us. Here's what's coming up on our
• 0:24
  program. The Iowa football media
• 0:27
  availability was this morning and Elliot Cleff from Hawkeye
• 0:30
  Insider was there 24/7 sports. So we will speak with him as to
• 0:35
  what he heard. Mark Gronowski was part of it as
• 0:39
  well. So the QB spoke.
• 0:41
  How's his progression coming along?
• 0:43
  Obviously, the Manning passing camp on all accounts, all things
• 0:46
  went well there. But Elliott was in the scrum as
• 0:49
  he listened to the QB answer those questions.
• 0:52
  So we'll pick his brain on that. Coming up at the bottom of the
• 0:55
  hour, our number 2 to Chicago we go.
• 0:57
  It's the cap man Centurion Stone of Iowa sponsors Cappy on a
• 1:00
  weekly basis. We'll talk Cubs, we'll talk
• 1:03
  Bears, we'll talk Chicago sports with Cappy coming up at 1:00.
• 1:07
  And then Nick Athen do a little bit on one of our regional
• 1:10
  teams. The Kansas City Chiefs will ask
• 1:12
  him about Fat Pat the QB amongst other things when he joins us at
• 1:17
  1:30. Trent's plays of the day
• 1:19
  following that at about 1:50. Circus sports sponsor those.
• 1:25
  How are you? Not too shabby.
• 1:26
  Good to see you again. It's been.
• 1:28
  About an hour, yeah, since we taped our Mediacom show that
• 1:32
  airs on MC22 weekly as we talk sports wagering on TV and do
• 1:36
  some on the radio. So was listening on the drive as
• 1:40
  I had a couple of errands to run in between and was listening to
• 1:44
  the first half of the fever match up.
• 1:47
  Now where did you get that? Well, I just had DIRECTV plugged
• 1:50
  into the aux cable and and listened that way and they're
• 1:55
  getting throttled, they're getting crushed by the
• 1:57
  Valkyries. It's is there something deeper
• 2:01
  going on with this team? They miss Christie's sides.
• 2:08
  I can't go there with you, OK? I was just through that out
• 2:12
  there. It's not going well.
• 2:14
  Stephanie White was supposed to take this team to a new.
• 2:16
  Level she is not. No, not at all.
• 2:18
  She is not Caitlin Clark, has not had a good year.
• 2:19
  No, by by any measure she's not been good and is not good again
• 2:24
  today. Only played 12 minutes so far in
• 2:27
  the first half. Got five points, couple of
• 2:29
  turnovers, 2 assists, 3 rebounds in the game.
• 2:33
  But she does. I mean, she had that shooting
• 2:38
  slump last year, right? And worked her way out of it and
• 2:41
  obviously finished the year doing very well.
• 2:44
  But I don't know, maybe they've they figured her out if they
• 2:48
  were like, this is the best women basketball players in the
• 2:50
  world, right? So they're going to adjust and
• 2:54
  it seems like they are. So we'll see how it goes.
• 2:56
  But the Valkyrie is one of the stories in the West.
• 3:01
  Off to what, A nine point lead did you say at halftime?
• 3:03
  Only 9 points in the second quarter for the Fever?
• 3:08
  Yikes, that's bad. 4132 as I flipped it on here, the halftime
• 3:13
  was so. Where are you watching it?
• 3:15
  Because for whatever reason, Wimbledon is on this TV and I
• 3:17
  can't. Stand Well Channel 5 here
• 3:19
  locally. Oh, then that should be easy.
• 3:20
  Yes, that's that's an easy 1. And I know the Quad Cities to
• 3:24
  our listeners over in the Quad Cities also their local
• 3:26
  affiliates over there have it on the ABC channel, I believe also
• 3:29
  in the Quad City. So you can catch it that way if
• 3:31
  you're out of market. NBATV also I believe.
• 3:33
  Has it done? Gotcha.
• 3:35
  Well, we don't want you watching TV, we want you listening to
• 3:37
  your radios because we've got a quality couple of hours coming
• 3:39
  up. So let's recap the baseball from
• 3:42
  last night. And we got to start with your
• 3:45
  Twins, who put one on the Cubs last night and did so especially
• 3:49
  that 8th inning, right? The bats went crazy 2 nothing
• 3:52
  after the first and then it was really good pitch, well pitched
• 3:55
  ball game between then. I thought the Twins bullpen was
• 3:58
  unbelievable last night. Here's my question.
• 4:01
  Ryan Jeffers, How does this guy only have seven home runs?
• 4:03
  My God, that ball he hit last night, holy mackerel just
• 4:07
  absolutely crushed it. He got off to the Super hot
• 4:12
  start a year ago. I don't know if you remember
• 4:13
  that he was at the top of the league in in a lot of power
• 4:16
  categories for the first, I don't know, month, month and a
• 4:19
  half of the season and then really trailed off through the
• 4:21
  back half of the year. He has to play himself as the
• 4:23
  number one catcher, but he's a guy that's also great because a
• 4:28
  lot of people thought he could catch at this level.
• 4:29
  He was not a good pitch framer and what did he do?
• 4:32
  Worked his ass off and he became one of at least the top half
• 4:35
  pitch framers in the league just by putting in the work to make
• 4:38
  it happen. But the that's always been
• 4:40
  there. But that's a guy that you wonder
• 4:42
  if the twins do trade, is he a trade candidate?
• 4:44
  Because finally, those types of catchers are there, but you're.
• 4:47
  Right, Robomscom Will pitch framers be that confident?
• 4:50
  Not going to be important, right, not at the same level,
• 4:52
  that is for sure, But that's an Ave. that I I definitely with
• 4:56
  Jeffers, a guy that's probably been a disappointment and a lot
• 4:59
  of guys offensively this year that have been disappointing for
• 5:01
  this group and and outside of Byron Buxton, who's been
• 5:04
  healthy. Nope.
• 5:05
  And he's been not good. Yeah, make sure.
• 5:08
  I think Harrison Bader's had a quiet, nice year because he had
• 5:11
  no expectations coming in, right?
• 5:13
  He's a lot of folks thought he was just playing out the string
• 5:15
  might have the best hair in baseball.
• 5:16
  And great catch to come diving in it.
• 5:18
  Was unbelievable. Defensively, he might be the
• 5:20
  best left fielder in baseball. Now he plays center field for
• 5:23
  Buxton and he is still a plus center.
• 5:25
  Field, he's really good. Center left fielder as well,
• 5:29
  yeah, but defensively he's good. He is tremendous.
• 5:31
  Not so much offensively, though. He's got hot here the last week
• 5:34
  or so. It's a Twins team that still has
• 5:36
  so much to do. And as I mentioned Monday to
• 5:39
  you, I just wonder what the pending sale of the team, the
• 5:43
  poll ads are not going to put any money into it.
• 5:44
  So you're not going to buy, but do you want potentially a lame
• 5:49
  duck front office making the decisions of what you're doing
• 5:52
  about the future of your organization or you just stand
• 5:55
  back? You know what?
• 5:56
  It's the poll ads and I don't think they want what?
• 5:59
  What's about Delhi's contracts? Got another year, right?
• 6:01
  That sounds right. Yeah, and they've already said
• 6:02
  he's coming back. Everybody's coming back.
• 6:04
  You know what I'm thinking? I think that they're taking the
• 6:06
  easy way out, knowing that they're going to sell the team.
• 6:08
  Look, if new ownership wants to come in, you fire him, you pay
• 6:10
  him. I don't want to.
• 6:11
  If you can find somebody that's going to take Carlos Correa's
• 6:14
  contract, I mean, that's a different conversation.
• 6:16
  If you don't have to eat, you know much of it or any of it,
• 6:19
  then that may be changed to the tune.
• 6:21
  And does that financially make a sale easier?
• 6:24
  I mean that's, that's kind of go in hand in hand with all of that
• 6:27
  Fairpoint as you get into that part is all of sudden you take a
• 6:30
  couple $100 million off the books a little bit easier maybe
• 6:33
  to sell that team and. I agree that makes it better.
• 6:35
  Rebuild the way that you want. It's it's a difficult situation.
• 6:40
  And as I so told what our friend Lauren, who chimed in last night
• 6:44
  that I was going, I'm not going to be rubbing it in.
• 6:46
  I've watched this cub Steve this year.
• 6:47
  They're a lot better than my twins.
• 6:48
  One night aside. They are.
• 6:50
  So are the Brewers and the Brewers, we'll get to them in a
• 6:52
  second because this miss Roski, is unbelievable.
• 6:54
  Unbelievable. You know, the eighth inning
• 6:56
  where the Cubs put or the Twins rather put up a sixth spot.
• 7:00
  I thought the Cubs had a real chance at this to begin that
• 7:03
  inning. Hap seeing I single the hole
• 7:06
  between first and second base Tucker's down O2 and walked and
• 7:13
  then strikeout strikeout groundout whatever it was they I
• 7:17
  think it was back-to-back strikeouts or was that the in
• 7:19
  India had back-to-back pop outs whatever they had an opportunity
• 7:23
  in the in the 8th inning didn't get it done.
• 7:25
  Then the twins had their turn at the plate and man oh man they
• 7:29
  got the Hodge Hodge had absolutely nothing last night
• 7:32
  looked like they must know what's coming.
• 7:33
  Speaking of the Twins, because they.
• 7:36
  Got Carl's career on their team. They were swinging out of their
• 7:38
  shoes and they were just crushing baseballs.
• 7:41
  Anyways, Game 2 of that one goes tonight.
• 7:43
  That the Brewers to me are are a team that they're going to be
• 7:49
  disappointed at the All Star break is is upon us because I
• 7:52
  don't think they want to stop. I don't think the Blue Jays want
• 7:54
  to stop. I don't think the Brewers want
• 7:56
  to stop watching Mizarowski and I did until the I missed the
• 8:01
  first inning of the Cubs and the Twins.
• 8:04
  But watch watch the Dodgers and the Brewers early and third
• 8:09
  pitch of the game. Otani Boomcon thinking, all
• 8:12
  right, the rookies met his match here and that is bad.
• 8:14
  He did, and then he got to work and finished with six innings of
• 8:21
  work, 18 outs, 12 of them came by strikeout.
• 8:25
  This kid is unbelievable, and if you've missed the opportunity to
• 8:29
  bet on him for American League Rookie of the Year, you're too
• 8:32
  late because that whatever price you were going to get, those are
• 8:35
  long gone. Our National League Player of
• 8:37
  the Rookie of the Year, I should say it is unbelievable just the
• 8:41
  impact he's having. So, Miss Roski, did you see the
• 8:45
  note last night Speaking of that game and then the bullpen arms
• 8:48
  that they brought in afterwards, the average fastball velocity?
• 8:53
  Of Miss Roski. Of the whole.
• 8:54
  Team OK, whole staff. I did not see this.
• 8:57
  It was either 99.8 or 98.9, whatever it was, but that was
• 9:01
  the average fastball velocity of the whole staff that pitched
• 9:04
  last night. It is the by far highest of the
• 9:07
  stat track era that they've had that dates back to 2008.
• 9:10
  And I was going to guess there's probably not a team that had a
• 9:12
  fastball velocity that averaged that over the course of a nine
• 9:15
  inning game. Back to Mizuroski though.
• 9:18
  So we hear about this kid first time, all right?
• 9:20
  It's eye opening. What do they do with him though?
• 9:24
  As far as pitch, as far as innings count.
• 9:26
  Exactly because it's not just obviously the innings, the 25
• 9:30
  and 2/3 that he has right now. He was also in the minor leagues
• 9:33
  earlier this. Season, you're right.
• 9:35
  And in the minors this year, he threw, let me find it here, 63
• 9:38
  and a third. So we're talking about 87
• 9:41
  innings that he's pitched already.
• 9:42
  Normally with these young guys, like 125, it's kind of the cap.
• 9:46
  Maybe 150 is what you're pushing it, do you?
• 9:50
  And he's got a, he's got a lat straight, you know, you put,
• 9:53
  he's got a tweaked ankle. Yeah.
• 9:55
  Do you put him down for two weeks?
• 9:57
  Do you go bullpen for a little bit?
• 10:00
  You got to have him in the rotation.
• 10:01
  Well, here's the thing. They're 2 1/2 games out.
• 10:05
  The Cubs are not a cinch in this division because of the Brewers.
• 10:08
  I'm convinced of it. And not just the Brewers.
• 10:10
  I mean, you still have, I don't believe in the Cardinals, but
• 10:12
  they're still hanging around. They still.
• 10:14
  They're hanging around, but they're falling further behind.
• 10:16
  They are. You got the Reds and those are
• 10:17
  teams. It's not just that those teams
• 10:19
  are going to catch them, because I don't think the Cardinals or
• 10:21
  Reds will, but they're competent teams and when you have the
• 10:25
  depth of a division, you're going to be playing a lot of
• 10:27
  games against those teams going. Forward.
• 10:29
  Let me let Let's take a look at that.
• 10:31
  That's a fairpoint. What do the Brewers and Cubs
• 10:33
  have left? They've got three at the end of
• 10:39
  July in Milwaukee and then they go to Wrigley and they've got
• 10:43
  five games at Wrigley. They got a make up doubleheader
• 10:46
  on Monday the 18th, so that's eight.
• 10:49
  Are they done after that? They must be.
• 10:51
  They're done after that. What is the what are the final
• 10:54
  two or three series like for both of those teams?
• 10:56
  So I got the Brewers up here. This is their final three.
• 10:59
  They go to Saint Louis, they go to San Diego, That's tough.
• 11:04
  And then they wrap up at home against the Reds.
• 11:06
  OK, so that should be. Meanwhile, the Cubs are doing
• 11:08
  what I know. They've got the Cardinals to end
• 11:10
  it. I'm pretty sure the Cardinals
• 11:13
  come up at the back end. All right, here we go.
• 11:17
  Their final three series for the Cubs. 4 at Cincinnati, three at
• 11:23
  home against the Mets, three at home against the Cardinals.
• 11:27
  Mets are going to be in a playoff hunt fight at that
• 11:30
  point, don't you think? Here's a good Tampa Yes.
• 11:35
  How about the beginning of September, though?
• 11:36
  You get the Braves two of three series in between the Nationals.
• 11:40
  A Braves team's gonna be dead. I.
• 11:42
  Would think so. Yeah, I would think so.
• 11:43
  That schedule sets up pretty well.
• 11:45
  And then after those series, you mentioned the Rays, you get the
• 11:47
  Pirates after that schedule's pretty.
• 11:50
  That's a that's a favorable schedule, I would say for the
• 11:53
  Cubs when you're looking at maybe the totality, I guess of
• 11:56
  September, because I mentioned the final three before that they
• 12:00
  opened Here it is against the Phillies do the Brewers.
• 12:04
  OK. They go to Pittsburgh for three.
• 12:06
  OK, Rangers for three on their. Own they're in a fight.
• 12:09
  Cardinals, Angels. Better, but yeah, hanging around
• 12:13
  but not you. Know and then those final three
• 12:14
  at Cardinals, at Padres, home for Cincy.
• 12:18
  Oh, September baseball 2 teams, I think gonna fight things out
• 12:21
  and they've got eight games head to head left, but sadly none of
• 12:25
  them in the month of September. All right, let's do a couple of
• 12:29
  things here, Trent. Let's let's win totals are out
• 12:31
  there. They have been out, but they've
• 12:33
  been upgraded. Are are updated.
• 12:36
  I should say not upgraded, updated at circus boards.
• 12:39
  When it comes to Big 12 and Big 10, I don't get involved in
• 12:42
  these markets because there's not a big enough return for, for
• 12:45
  my liking. As I've said many times, I I'm
• 12:48
  going to try and, you know, 21 or North.
• 12:50
  That's why I like to play. But when it comes to win totals,
• 12:54
  is there a Big 12 win total that gets your fancy right off the
• 12:59
  top? I mean, there's three teams at
• 13:01
  the top that have a win total of 8 1/2, Texas Tech, K State and
• 13:08
  Utah's Utah. The other one, Arizona State,
• 13:10
  Arizona State, that's right, Utah's 7 1/2.
• 13:13
  So is is there a Big 12 team that gets your attention?
• 13:16
  Starting at the top of those three teams, Arizona State, K
• 13:20
  State and Texas Tech. If I had to make a bet amongst
• 13:23
  those three, I think my bet would be under on Arizona State.
• 13:26
  And I know I'm going against conventional wisdom preseason
• 13:29
  pick. Even if the Big 12 didn't
• 13:31
  officially put out a poll, plenty of other places have gone
• 13:34
  and done that to replicate what they did a year ago and a year
• 13:39
  that. Remember, they also lost two
• 13:40
  games in conference. It was a four way tie at 7:00
• 13:42
  and 2:00. Tiebreaker went their way as it
• 13:44
  did Iowa State and that's why they got their way down to
• 13:47
  Texas. It just these teams that come
• 13:49
  out of nowhere. The sustainability is so
• 13:51
  difficult and. Escada Boo was a cheat code.
• 13:55
  He. Was he was.
• 13:56
  You know, I remember, I think it was leading into that or maybe
• 13:59
  he was leading into the playoff game against Texas, watching a
• 14:02
  story about him and he was talking about he was very
• 14:06
  selfish as a young player. He was very selfish.
• 14:09
  It was all about him and finally he understand it's not just
• 14:12
  about talent. That's being a good teammate,
• 14:15
  doing the things, lifting other guys up.
• 14:17
  And you saw those leadership qualities a year ago.
• 14:19
  I mean, you saw him go to his offensive line, you saw him
• 14:22
  embracing Sam Levitt. He wasn't that guy before.
• 14:24
  He was kind of a bad teammate. And that changed.
• 14:29
  And you lose not only the production, which is
• 14:31
  outstanding, you lose talent which was outstanding, but then
• 14:35
  you throw in the fact of that leadership quality that that
• 14:38
  will to win at a place like Arizona State.
• 14:40
  I think that's tough to replicate.
• 14:42
  Tyson's back. That dude's a stunt.
• 14:44
  Yeah, he is. And, and how many games did he
• 14:46
  miss at the end of the year or he didn't play the Big 10
• 14:48
  championship or the playoffs? Right.
• 14:50
  He is a difference maker at wider.
• 14:52
  Levitt's a stunt. I I really do like Sam Levitt.
• 14:55
  It's kind of the rest of the roster and just doing it again
• 14:58
  that were my concern. So of those top three, I would
• 15:01
  go under Arizona State under 8 1/2.
• 15:04
  You know the one that I think that if if I was to get involved
• 15:07
  with it, I maybe think has the best chance to get.
• 15:09
  I don't think Iowa State's winning 8 football games.
• 15:12
  You don't the. 7 1/2 I can get them to seven and five.
• 15:16
  Here's my big concern when it comes to them.
• 15:18
  Trent 167 catches it's. A good place to start, right?
• 15:25
  167 catches have graduated Solon Townsend.
• 15:32
  Maybe two really good receivers. Can you see them coming up with
• 15:36
  anything close to that? Now, I'll say this.
• 15:38
  I think Bramer, if he's healthy, has a chance.
• 15:43
  This is his last year. Names.
• 15:45
  I'm convinced of that. He's going to the NFL draft
• 15:47
  after this year. I think he's that good of a
• 15:50
  player. I really do.
• 15:51
  I think he's an NFL tight end. He's certainly built for it.
• 15:54
  I think he's got the let's not forget he was a freshman All
• 15:57
  American, right? I mean, he was unbelievable
• 16:00
  right out of the chute. But I can't get past Higgins and
• 16:03
  Noel not being there. I just can't.
• 16:06
  Jalen Noel won the Iowa game. They don't win that football
• 16:09
  game. They don't almost maybe any
• 16:12
  other receiver. He won that football game.
• 16:14
  The Central Florida game. They don't win with Jaden.
• 16:18
  How often can you say a wide receiver wins you 2 football
• 16:21
  games without him you don't win. It's not very often.
• 16:24
  And he was the difference maker in both of those games, so he
• 16:27
  just flipped those two. We're having a different.
• 16:30
  Conversation, aren't we? I, I, I think so look, I think
• 16:31
  they're going to win seven games.
• 16:33
  There's a lot of parity in the league yes, Campbell said
• 16:36
  yesterday he answered the question.
• 16:37
  I think it was an on the side question.
• 16:38
  I want to get this what he may or may not have said.
• 16:43
  That's getting a lot of play about pay cuts and whether he
• 16:46
  said it or not, I think it's semantics.
• 16:47
  I, I get what he if Pete Thammel misquoted him.
• 16:52
  I, I kind of, I think it's semantics, but it's not, it's
• 16:54
  not good on Thammel, But we'll get to that in just a second.
• 16:57
  Campbell was asked about, you know, some of the concerns
• 17:01
  around his team and defensive line came up and.
• 17:06
  And yeah, Dominic Orange is a heck of a.
• 17:07
  Player. Right, but but they lost guys to
• 17:11
  the transfer portal. We know they're deep at
• 17:13
  linebacker. Porter, what round was he
• 17:17
  taking? In?
• 17:17
  The third round of the NFL draft.
• 17:19
  So they got they've got some guys in the secondary.
• 17:21
  Conradi was really good. That's how we remember him
• 17:25
  because he made a really long football kick in a really big
• 17:28
  football game. But he was tiny bit above
• 17:31
  average. Yeah.
• 17:32
  Am I being unfair to him? But he's AB minus.
• 17:35
  And when you look at the schedule for Iowa State this
• 17:37
  year, this is what worries me. The K state game.
• 17:42
  They're a dog in this game, right, right.
• 17:45
  This game is a complete toss up. If they don't win this game, you
• 17:49
  like their chances of coming home.
• 17:50
  They should beat South South Dakota, but you're coming home
• 17:53
  from. Dublin, it's basically a short
• 17:55
  week. Right, Jet lag, you know the
• 18:00
  time change on your body. Then you got to prepare for
• 18:03
  Cyhawk. You go on the road to Arkansas
• 18:05
  State, your first four, if you're two and two.
• 18:09
  Oh, boy, right. Yeah.
• 18:11
  Arizona at Cincy, at Colorado, of those three, they probably
• 18:16
  win. They need to win 3.
• 18:17
  Yes. I think to cash they need to win
• 18:21
  those three to cash the over, yeah.
• 18:24
  Then BYU, who's a player? No rats left.
• 18:27
  Well, that's, well, we don't know that yet, though.
• 18:30
  Arizona State, here come the defending champs at TCU, we both
• 18:34
  think TCU's arrows pointing up. Hoover's a stud.
• 18:36
  Hoover is a stud. Daniels in his final year at
• 18:39
  Kansas, is he? Going to be healthy well.
• 18:41
  Probably not Oklahoma State, so let's give him Oklahoma State.
• 18:45
  Kansas of the BYU, Arizona State, TCU, You want to give him
• 18:52
  one there? At least, yeah.
• 18:54
  So I'll give him one. That's three.
• 18:58
  That means they have to win all of at Arizona, Cincy, Colorado
• 19:02
  to get them to six. Find two more, beat Iowa, BK
• 19:07
  State. It's tough.
• 19:09
  I think I would take the under on Iowa State.
• 19:11
  Now just to poke hole in that mention the three games, I think
• 19:15
  they're incredibly important Arizona at Cincy at Colorado a
• 19:18
  minimum win 2 and it's also the two of them are on the road
• 19:22
  that's sweepable. That's a sweepable stretch of
• 19:24
  season coming off a by leading into that three get another by
• 19:27
  after those three games mentioned BYU really good a year
• 19:31
  ago. Two years ago, they stunk,
• 19:33
  right? Ratzlauf, who knows he's not
• 19:35
  there. And Brewer, Keith, we're going
• 19:37
  to get to you. Hang on, be patient.
• 19:38
  I wanted to get back to you. I mean, you're in July and you
• 19:40
  still don't know who your quarterback is.
• 19:42
  That's the problem. Arizona State, but maybe they
• 19:44
  do. I think there's a step back for
• 19:46
  Arizona State and you get them at Jack Trice.
• 19:49
  Both of those games at Jack Trice?
• 19:50
  Yep. And no scoutable who just killed
• 19:52
  you last year? At TCU, those games seem to
• 19:54
  always be weird when those two get together.
• 19:57
  And Kansas mentioned Danis might not be there.
• 19:59
  Oklahoma State, I mean, Gundy might be a swan song.
• 20:02
  I mean, he might be out the door at that point.
• 20:05
  And that difficult closing stretch maybe doesn't turn out
• 20:09
  to be back to the parody where you kind of started this
• 20:12
  conversation, because would you be shocked if BYU falls back to
• 20:16
  5:00 and 7:00? If Arizona State's A7 and five,
• 20:19
  I wouldn't. If they don't have an adequate
• 20:20
  quarterback, I will not be shocked.
• 20:22
  And that's but they haven't. Ruled him out yet and he hasn't
• 20:25
  found a new. Home What's?
• 20:26
  What's the verbiage? Because he hasn't.
• 20:28
  Entered the portal, hasn't entered the portal.
• 20:30
  So he's still got that honor code, that student honor code.
• 20:34
  Because remember the power forward, What was that 15 years
• 20:36
  ago for BYU, the basketball player that had the same thing?
• 20:39
  And he waited and he went to court and he tried everything?
• 20:43
  No, it's a private institution. They can do what they want.
• 20:45
  We can do what they want, Kick Rustlaw's not playing for.
• 20:47
  Them But help me out. The guy did the basketball
• 20:50
  player. Yeah.
• 20:51
  Was he good? Yeah, very good.
• 20:52
  Was he? Yeah, on a good BYU team.
• 20:54
  OK. That's good to say.
• 20:55
  Maybe they make it. We're talking about a
• 20:57
  quarterback, yes, Yeah. Do you maybe you know massage
• 21:01
  the rules a little bit? We're talking about a
• 21:03
  quarterback. Right, fair enough.
• 21:06
  Definitely fair. I get where you're going on that
• 21:08
  part, but it's happened before and they did not break their
• 21:11
  honor code. Yeah, we'll see.
• 21:16
  We'll save the Big 10 for later because I got one of those that
• 21:18
  I think is a complete slam dunk. All right, Keith's been on hold
• 21:21
  for a long time. Keith, thanks for being patient.
• 21:23
  How are you? Hey, thanks for the time.
• 21:25
  Hey, on that vein, you're just talking about, you know, Athlon
• 21:28
  magazine has they listed their top 10 college football games
• 21:33
  this fall. Yeah, one of the top 10 is
• 21:36
  November 1st, Arizona State of Iowa State.
• 21:38
  So when they put that on the list, I assume they think that
• 21:40
  both teams be undefeated going into that game.
• 21:44
  So that'll be interesting. I know Eric State's got that
• 21:47
  transfer that that big running back transfer from Army to
• 21:50
  repeat scatter. We'll see what happens anyway.
• 21:53
  Hey, why I call they, you know, hey, Cubby fans, don't look in
• 21:56
  the rearview mirror right now. They're coming the same old
• 21:59
  Brewers, the the team that seems to win recently every year, the
• 22:02
  NL Central, they're right there 2.5 games back.
• 22:06
  You know, your buddy David Kaplan likes to diminish the Pat
• 22:10
  Murphy effect, but I think it's very, very real.
• 22:13
  He's got a payroll 1/2 of the Cubs.
• 22:15
  He's got a payroll one 1/3 of the Dodgers, who they just
• 22:19
  beaten twice in a row. And you know, one of the weak
• 22:21
  spots going in was pitching, and now it's one of the strengths of
• 22:24
  that. Well, Woodruff being back is
• 22:26
  huge, especially if he pitches like he pitches when this
• 22:29
  weekend, Sunday. He pitches this weekend.
• 22:31
  I know at home. Yeah, and of course I forget
• 22:34
  that I can't pronounce the guy's name last night too, but.
• 22:37
  Is this Zoroski? Yeah.
• 22:39
  It looks to me like the stars are aligned again and and the
• 22:43
  brew, Like I said, the Brewers have one thing the Cubs don't
• 22:46
  have and that's Pat Murphy at the manicure spot.
• 22:49
  Ironic though, right that day. Walking.
• 22:51
  The the Campbells are the the counselor rather.
• 22:54
  Thanks for the call, Keith. Pat Murphy was his bench coach.
• 23:00
  I'm looking at Mizuroski and I just googled to see if there's
• 23:02
  any articles about a pitch number, innings limit that
• 23:05
  they're looking at. I'm not seeing anything, at
• 23:08
  least in the first go around going through here.
• 23:11
  Oh, here it is. Here's something.
• 23:12
  Well, this is from AI, so hold on to your hats.
• 23:15
  Brewers are managing Mizuroski's innings carefully, likely with
• 23:18
  the target around 140 to 150 innings.
• 23:21
  And with in the majors or overall?
• 23:24
  Overall and we how many how many did he pitch in AAA?
• 23:27
  Any idea? He is currently at 79 and a
• 23:30
  third innings overall in totality.
• 23:33
  OK, then maybe. Can I give you my best bet if I
• 23:38
  if I was playing these things when it comes to over unders?
• 23:40
  Yeah, it's a Big 10 team. A Big 10 team.
• 23:42
  A Big 10 team whose win total is 7 1/2, and I think it's a
• 23:46
  complete miss, a complete miss. Nebraska, you're Husker, Kenny.
• 23:51
  So, but you're close. It is a border state, so go E
• 23:55
  It's Illinois. Illinois.
• 23:57
  I love Illinois. They won nine, yes, they won
• 24:02
  nine games last year. Now their best receiver is a
• 24:04
  Bronco. Denver Bronco.
• 24:07
  Not a Boise State Bronco. No, no, he didn't transfer to
• 24:09
  Boise State. He's a Denver Bronco.
• 24:11
  But here's their schedule. Trent Western Illinois at Duke,
• 24:16
  Western Michigan 3 and O. Should be Duke will be tricky
• 24:20
  tricky. Duke's gonna be pretty good.
• 24:21
  I think their win total of 6 1/2 in the ACC, But I I like
• 24:25
  Illinois. I like Illinois on the road.
• 24:27
  So I've got them three and O at Indiana.
• 24:30
  MM Hmm. Your toss up game.
• 24:32
  Home Home to USC. Good game, good game.
• 24:36
  Split there. That's fair. 4 at Purdue, 5 Ohio
• 24:41
  State at home, 5 at Washington. Tough West Coast.
• 24:46
  Give them five at home to Rutgers. 6.
• 24:50
  Home to Maryland. Seven at Whiskey Bert going back
• 24:56
  to Wisconsin. They get them.
• 24:59
  Yeah, badges gonna stink. Northwestern.
• 25:03
  That's that's nine. That's nine and three.
• 25:04
  That's nine and three, 7 1/2 win total.
• 25:07
  Now they are. Counting on a completely new not
• 25:10
  just from 4, they're counting on 4 transfers.
• 25:14
  Are they all gonna hit? Yep, no doubt about it.
• 25:19
  Huh, not in my mind. Starting with that component,
• 25:23
  that would be probably the easiest hole to poke in.
• 25:26
  Them looking for a #1 receiver and a completely new front, and
• 25:30
  the way the Bealema plays physicality up front.
• 25:33
  That would be my concern with the aligner.
• 25:35
  But it's hard to poke a hole in that scheduling.
• 25:37
  Running back is back. Altmire is back.
• 25:40
  You know when you were gone, I had Nick Osen on, who covers
• 25:43
  Wisconsin. They're in trouble now.
• 25:47
  Nick didn't think so. Of course, Nick is one of the
• 25:49
  most positive people I ever met in my life.
• 25:51
  We both love Nick Osen. We both love Nick Osen, can't
• 25:54
  wait to talk to him again for Wisconsin Iowa week.
• 25:57
  And any excuse we can find to talk to Nick Osen, 'cause he's a
• 26:00
  good dude, he's a happy go lucky guy and a great guy and we both
• 26:04
  love. Him and engaged congratulations
• 26:06
  to you I. Wish I would have known that or
• 26:07
  would have said something. It just happened this week.
• 26:10
  You had to ruin the surprise, really.
• 26:16
  They they've got to go to Alabama, they've got to go to
• 26:19
  Michigan, they host Ohio State, they've got to go to Oregon,
• 26:23
  they've got to go to Indiana, they've got to host Illinois,
• 26:25
  and they've got to play Minnesota.
• 26:27
  That's part of their schedule. Giant, I can't find four wins.
• 26:33
  1st 2 Miami, Ohio, Middle Tennessee All right.
• 26:35
  Two and O. They get Maryland at home.
• 26:38
  Two and O no. I'm.
• 26:39
  Three and one, OK, three and one.
• 26:41
  Then how about their October at Michigan?
• 26:43
  Three and two home for Iowa, 3 and 3.
• 26:45
  Ohio State three and four at Oregon 3:00 and 5:00 and then
• 26:49
  Washington IN Illinois 7. Three and eight, Three and nine.
• 26:53
  It's tough. Absolutely.
• 26:55
  Wow. Have they fallen?
• 26:56
  Huh. Fickle might not make it to
• 26:58
  November. Now there's one I could buy.
• 27:00
  First coach fired. Get ahead of the posse except.
• 27:04
  Well, yeah, stranger things have happened.
• 27:08
  Somebody's mean there's going to be big name coaches that fall,
• 27:10
  as there are every year. We're going to talk to Elliot
• 27:12
  Clough. He was at the football
• 27:14
  availability for Iowa today. Mark Gronowski met the media,
• 27:17
  anxious to get the latest on that, and we will.

• 27:51
  Iowa Sports Radio Network. We take you until two.
• 27:56
  Turn things over to Sean and Lucas as they come off the bench
• 28:00
  until 5:00 overtime. Iowa 5 to 6.
• 28:03
  Elliot Cliff, he was out of work for a couple of days not long as
• 28:08
  he found a spot back as he should have at
• 28:10
  hawkeyeinsider.com. Does a great job covering Iowa,
• 28:13
  and he joins us to recap the football availability from
• 28:16
  earlier this morning. Elliot, Congrats on the new gig.
• 28:20
  Glad that you're still on the Hawkeye beat.
• 28:22
  And how are you, Sir? Trenton, Ken.
• 28:25
  I'm good guys. Thanks.
• 28:27
  Thanks for for the shout there. I know I appeared right when I,
• 28:31
  you know, around that time I got the news and and you guys, you
• 28:35
  know, said some good words about, you know, the work that I
• 28:38
  put in and stuff like that. So I really appreciate it.
• 28:41
  As always, happy to be back on and talking.
• 28:43
  Yeah, absolutely. It's two way St. here.
• 28:44
  We're grateful for what you guys and everybody in the Hawkeye
• 28:46
  beat does the join not only our show, but all of them here at
• 28:50
  KX&O. So Mark Rodowski met the media
• 28:53
  today. Certainly sounds like a
• 28:55
  confident young man. I'm not a young man, confident
• 29:00
  quarterback as he is. The the Manning passing camp
• 29:04
  went very well. All systems go.
• 29:07
  Was that your take listening to QB One earlier today?
• 29:12
  Yep, he's telling the media that he's 100% healthy and that he's
• 29:15
  100% comfortable. And Tim Lester's offense, that
• 29:18
  was one of the main draws for him to come to Iowa too, the
• 29:21
  Shanahan style offense, learn a little bit more about how they
• 29:24
  run things in the NFL And that's, you know, that's where
• 29:28
  he wants to be. And, and he's he's gone
• 29:30
  obviously to the Manning Passing Academy as well as went to
• 29:33
  Dallas with a couple of his teammates to work with Jeff
• 29:35
  Christensen, who's an NFL quarterbacks coach, as well as
• 29:39
  went on a trip to the Ozarks with some of the offensive
• 29:41
  lineman. So he's starting to get to know
• 29:43
  the guys. He's getting integrated with the
• 29:45
  offense and feeling, feeling comfortable and confident with
• 29:48
  where he's at. So, yeah, sounds like all
• 29:50
  systems go. You know, being hurt is
• 29:53
  obviously not ideal for the spring, but it sounds like he's
• 29:57
  he's comfortable with the offense.
• 29:58
  He's continuing to learn, he's continuing to get confident and
• 30:01
  and feels good about where things are at.
• 30:03
  KJ Parker is a guy that keeps kind of getting that buzz, so
• 30:07
  he's available today. I think that says something at
• 30:10
  the wide receiver position. If they're going to put him out
• 30:12
  there, it's not for him to play 15 snaps this year.
• 30:15
  It is a deep room, something that isn't always the case of
• 30:17
  wide receiver. No retra freshman.
• 30:19
  Yeah. He maintained it a year ago.
• 30:22
  We heard it last year. Now we've been hearing it
• 30:24
  throughout the spring and the summer.
• 30:26
  How big of a piece is KJ Parker going to be to this offense?
• 30:29
  Yeah, that's a really good question.
• 30:31
  That wide receiver group, dare I say it's deep this year for
• 30:35
  Iowa. They've got probably 7-8 guys
• 30:37
  that have either had time or on the field in general and college
• 30:41
  football, but also in black and gold, but also guys that that
• 30:45
  probably deserved to see some time in the field, like KJ
• 30:48
  Parker. You can't forget they added Sam
• 30:50
  Phillips from Chattanooga. You're going down the list of
• 30:52
  guys from last season and Jeriat Bowie and Dayton Howard and Seth
• 30:56
  Anderson and Jacob Gill, right? So and, and you get to throw
• 31:00
  Kaden Wegen into that group too, even though he's known for being
• 31:03
  a returner. So I got to know KJA little bit
• 31:06
  during his recruitment. The sentiment around him is kind
• 31:09
  of how how did he end up in Iowa?
• 31:11
  How was Iowa the only power for school that was really still
• 31:15
  involved late in his his recruitment?
• 31:18
  And actually Iowa initially wanted him as a safety before
• 31:20
  they flipped the recruiting him as a wide receiver.
• 31:23
  But yeah, I've, I've been told by multiple people that he's got
• 31:26
  phenomenal ball skills and that he just continues to wow folks
• 31:30
  in practice. So he, he's going to see the
• 31:33
  field this year to, to what degree.
• 31:35
  And you know, how many snaps, how many catches, We don't all,
• 31:37
  all that stuff in terms of the numbers that's going to be up in
• 31:40
  the air. We'll, we'll probably learn more
• 31:42
  at Kids Day. But you know, everything I've
• 31:44
  I've heard from behind the scenes is that he's standing out
• 31:47
  and at the same time fitting in with that that talented group of
• 31:50
  receivers. Well, when it comes to the
• 31:52
  running back position, how's this going to shake up because
• 31:54
  it didn't seem like this time last year's, we think back Caleb
• 31:58
  Johnson wasn't necessarily going to be the guy, just turned out
• 32:02
  he was more than the guy. He was unbelievable.
• 32:05
  Patterson, Moulton, there's a lot of love for Washington.
• 32:10
  Trent, your guy Dolls maybe in the mix, a lot of a lot of
• 32:14
  running backs to divvy up the carries.
• 32:17
  How is it going to work out? Well, don't forget Xavier
• 32:20
  Williams and Nathan Mcnell with her.
• 32:22
  Those are those are two guys that I've heard some good things
• 32:24
  about. It's definitely going to be
• 32:25
  running back by committee, but the the three lead guys of that
• 32:30
  group of six will be TJ Washington, Jazz Patterson and
• 32:34
  Kumari Moulton. Kumari Moulton, but the
• 32:36
  headliner probably of that group, I think they all have
• 32:39
  skill sets that really complement each other well.
• 32:42
  Kumari is more of that every down back.
• 32:44
  TJ is like a third down back that's really dynamic out of the
• 32:47
  backfield can probably return punts kicks this year.
• 32:51
  He might be returning kicks next to Kaden Wegen by by the sounds
• 32:55
  of it, but and then Jazz Patterson, of course, a hard
• 32:58
  hitter, Xavier Williams, really tough to tackle.
• 33:01
  Reverend Dahl, a speedster, your guy Trent state champ and track.
• 33:05
  And then Nathan McNeil. I I think I told you guys this
• 33:07
  earlier, but earlier in the year, but I had a source
• 33:11
  describe him to me as lightning in a bottle.
• 33:13
  So he's he's a guy that's really fun.
• 33:15
  Then enrolled early came up from Florida like Liddell Betts love
• 33:19
  those Florida running backs. So came up from there and I I'd
• 33:23
  expect him to contribute one way or another this year.
• 33:25
  If you can save it, if you can give him a red shirt, awesome.
• 33:28
  But this, this group is is loaded, and it wouldn't surprise
• 33:31
  me if Omar Young goes to any of them at any given time.
• 33:34
  Jennings dunker back for a right tackle, one of the better right
• 33:36
  tackles you're going to find in college football, but is coming
• 33:39
  off that surgery on his ankle this spring.
• 33:42
  Did he say today kind of where he is in his rehab coming back
• 33:45
  and and the anticipation of when he's going to be full goal with
• 33:48
  the team? He did say that he said he's
• 33:51
  about a week out from being 100%.
• 33:53
  So to me that would that would I would assume that would mean
• 33:57
  he's he's getting back the the full participation and he'll be
• 34:00
  a full go for camp. So that's definitely a win.
• 34:04
  Of course, the offensive line he's an anchor of it.
• 34:07
  Logan Jones, both Stevens coming back right guard with Cade
• 34:10
  Peeper, who is playing left tackle between Bryce George,
• 34:13
  Trevor Lauk and and Jack Dosler. But yeah, Jennings, Jennings is,
• 34:18
  is sounding like he's going to be good to go and he's probably
• 34:21
  going to be in in line for some all Conference honors, maybe
• 34:24
  some All America honors this year.
• 34:26
  If you had to handicap, if we go to the Cluff casino, who would
• 34:30
  be the betting favorite right now to be the starting left
• 34:32
  tackle out of the the three guys that you mentioned?
• 34:35
  Man, that is that's a really good, really good question.
• 34:39
  My my favorite just as to where things are at currently would
• 34:44
  probably be Trevor Lauke out of out of Indianapolis, 4 star
• 34:48
  prospect that probably could have been guard could have been
• 34:52
  tackle at this next level. He's a guy that's a year younger
• 34:56
  than Jack Dosler, so probably a little bit more potential there.
• 35:01
  Been playing left tackle since he's been more or less since
• 35:03
  he's been in Iowa. Where is Bryce George?
• 35:05
  It's like I, I think I heard some analogy and I don't think
• 35:09
  this is right, but from what I've heard, flipping from right
• 35:11
  tackle to left tackle is like trying to pitch with your left
• 35:15
  hand when you're right-handed it.
• 35:16
  It's just, it's just not an easy transition.
• 35:20
  So from the things I'm hearing, it's sounding like it's going to
• 35:23
  be like and, and Jack Dosler could be a backup for left
• 35:27
  tackle, could be a backup for right tackle.
• 35:29
  He was getting those right tackle reps in the spring with
• 35:31
  Jennings out. So or some of them anyway.
• 35:34
  I know he did it the kids Day practice, but yeah, to me it's
• 35:38
  the betting favourites Loud. But I mean that could change
• 35:40
  through camp, right Ryce? George played a lot of football,
• 35:43
  so if he can figure it out and and he gets rolling, then very
• 35:47
  well could be George. You know back to spring camp is
• 35:49
  Speaking of getting reps when the started result.
• 35:51
  I I I liked what I saw at least on video of Hank Brown.
• 35:55
  He's not going to be a starter. He shouldn't be a star Granowski
• 35:57
  clearly QB one but is is Hank Brown without a doubt the next
• 36:03
  man up if it if indeed you do get to that point.
• 36:06
  After all, it is a contact sport.
• 36:09
  Yeah, he's got to be right. I mean we saw Jackson Stratton
• 36:12
  win two games almost pull off that comeback in UCLA.
• 36:15
  Great story. Yeah, great story, but he's a
• 36:18
  walk on been in the system for for a year ish now.
• 36:22
  He's actually the longest 10 year to Iowa quarterback now fun
• 36:25
  fact, after Tim yeah, Tim Lester completely did a re reboot of
• 36:32
  that room. But then you look at Jeremy
• 36:34
  Hecklinski as as the third spot as well.
• 36:37
  He might be competing with with Stratton there, depending on how
• 36:41
  that first year of of college football helped him out at Wake
• 36:44
  Forest under Warren Ruggiero. But yeah, it's it's got to be
• 36:47
  Hank after some starting experience in the SEC and he's
• 36:51
  really coming along. I've I've heard that like
• 36:53
  Granowski, he's gotten a lot more comfortable in the offense,
• 36:56
  really starting to be able to command things there under
• 37:00
  Center for for the second team. Couple weeks away, Big 10
• 37:03
  football media days. I will go on that Thursday.
• 37:05
  Ethan Herket, local kid from the corridor.
• 37:08
  Makes sense. Logan Jones, of course, coming
• 37:10
  back, all American candidate at center and then Cohen entering
• 37:12
  her who started one game in his career.
• 37:15
  Boy, that's a rarity for somebody like that to be making
• 37:17
  their way to media days. What was your take away and just
• 37:20
  what people say about Cohen entering her?
• 37:23
  Yeah, well, I don't know if you guys you guys probably know
• 37:25
  this, but player council determines who goes to the media
• 37:28
  day. So I think that's pretty telling
• 37:31
  of what his teammates think of him.
• 37:33
  I think, you know, he may not have started more than one game,
• 37:37
  but he's definitely had his impact.
• 37:39
  Of course, we all remember the Big 10 Championship and and
• 37:41
  chasing down the guy in the punt return.
• 37:43
  I think that's indicative of his effort 1/2 I mean, he might be
• 37:47
  one of the more, if not the most versatile defensive backs that
• 37:51
  the Hawkeyes have this year. And he's a hard hitter.
• 37:53
  And I mean, I, I he'd like him in coverage.
• 37:56
  He could play strong safety or cash.
• 37:58
  That's coming here between he and Zach Lutmer.
• 38:00
  I'd probably put Lutmer in cash and and entering her at strong
• 38:03
  safety at this point, but he's he's going to be something this
• 38:07
  year. He could be a breakout year.
• 38:09
  I mean, if there were any of these guys that could be NFL
• 38:12
  eligible that have potential to jump into that echelon.
• 38:16
  I think Cohen enteringer is right there.
• 38:18
  I I'm a really big Cohen enteringer guy from Michigan was
• 38:22
  offered by the Wolverines late decided to stick with Iowa and
• 38:26
  he's a great quote too. Like I thought he was on the
• 38:29
  list to go to Big 10 Media Days and like, yes.
• 38:32
  We got a good one so. I'm a I'm a big Cohen entering
• 38:36
  her fan the way he returned from that ACL injury in in the end of
• 38:41
  not this season, but the season prior and ends up back for fall
• 38:45
  camp. I mean, I, I, I'm really
• 38:47
  impressed with with what he's able to do, his range, his
• 38:50
  ability to hit. I wouldn't surprise me if he
• 38:53
  stacks up a few picks this year either.

  They got better when they brought you aboard.
• 39:00
  I think we're good in the 1st place.
• 39:01
  So Elliot, thanks for doing this.
• 39:02
  Appreciate it. And we'll talk to you down the
• 39:04
  road. Elliot, Thank you.
• 39:06
  Thanks, guys. Yeah, good to talk to you,
• 39:07
  Elliot Cliff, as we check in on the Hawks.
• 39:10
  Come back, finish hour number one, Miller and Con deny with
• 39:13
  Sports Radio Network. I'm Mallory Condon, Iowa Sports
• 39:19
  Radio Network, KXNO. Final couple of minutes here.
• 39:23
  The first hour of the program. So Matt Campbell may or may not
• 39:26
  have said, and it depends who you ask.
• 39:29
  Apparently Pete Thammill quoted Matt Campbell saying quote
• 39:33
  somewhere along the line. I'd say 20 of our top guys took
• 39:35
  a pay cut to come back to Iowa State and he's getting killed
• 39:41
  for it. I don't think it's worthy of the
• 39:43
  criticism. I think that speaks highly of
• 39:45
  the culture. I don't know if he actually said
• 39:48
  the word pay cut, but I believe he what he probably meant was
• 39:52
  could have got more money going elsewhere, which I guess kind of
• 39:56
  means like a pay cut, right? So it's semantics in that
• 39:59
  regard. But is that a damning statement?
• 40:01
  Is that something he should have kept to himself?
• 40:03
  Or is it you're making a mountain over molehill?
• 40:06
  Because this kind of speaks volumes about what he's got
• 40:08
  going there. The way that I see it is I think
• 40:11
  he just misspoke in a way he should have said guys could have
• 40:15
  got more money elsewhere, maybe put it that route or just saying
• 40:18
  because the pay cut implies now he is making $150,000 and now
• 40:22
  these guys are only making 50,000 because Iowa State's
• 40:25
  broke. Excellent point.
• 40:25
  And and that's what's going to be used on the recruiting trail.
• 40:28
  Hey, look what their coach said. You're not getting paid
• 40:30
  anything. You go there, you're you're
• 40:32
  going to be. Well, they may give you this in
• 40:34
  year 1, but year 2 they're going to ask you to take a pay cut.
• 40:36
  Damn. No, people will use that.
• 40:38
  Yeah, they will. So I think, yeah, the quote's
• 40:41
  real. He said it and what he was
• 40:43
  trying to say, I think we all understand that because we heard
• 40:46
  all the stories that are out there.
• 40:47
  It was just the verbiage he used was not the right way to imply
• 40:51
  what he was trying to get to. I buy exactly what you're
• 40:54
  selling. Absolutely.
