• 0:14
  All right. Good afternoon and welcome
• 0:16
  Miller and Condon underway in a Tuesday.
• 0:19
  Thanks for starting your afternoon here with us.
• 0:22
  Trent Condon and Ken Miller for the next couple of hours to talk
• 0:25
  sports with you on the Iowa Sports Radio Network.
• 0:28
  Here's what's coming up on our program here this afternoon.
• 0:33
  We're going to start with Elliott Clough.
• 0:35
  We will focus on the Hawkeyes with Elliott a part of 24/7
• 0:40
  Sports hawkeyeinsider.com along with David Eicholdt, Elliott
• 0:43
  Clough join us I think weekly during the next few months here,
• 0:47
  football into basketball season. But we will talk with Elliot
• 0:50
  coming up here at 12:25. Mitch Holtis his normal spot,
• 0:54
  12:45-ish. The Chiefs daily training camp
• 0:58
  reports we got another week of this or is this?
• 1:00
  I think this might be one more before that goes on hiatus.
• 1:04
  And then Mitch joins Us Weekly during the regular season.
• 1:08
  So today we've got another youngster, one of the rookies
• 1:12
  that's trying to make an impact on this roster and we will talk
• 1:15
  to Mitch coming up here at about 12:45.
• 1:18
  Staying in that football genre, we will head from the Chiefs N
• 1:23
  to the Twin Cities. Dane Moussutani, the beat writer
• 1:26
  for the Saint Paul Pioneer Press, twincities.com.
• 1:29
  We'll get the latest on the Vikings report card on JJ
• 1:33
  McCarthy, Max Brosnor as well. He might be the backup
• 1:37
  quarterback. I'm not kidding you.
• 1:39
  I'm not kidding you. I.
• 1:40
  Don't think that's going to happen.
• 1:41
  Well, we'll see. I'll pick Danes brain on that is
• 1:43
  there's a lot of buzz around his camp that he is having.
• 1:46
  I think he's going to make the team whether he's the number 3
• 1:48
  or not, but we'll see. Did you think he was playing at
• 1:50
  Minnesota? There was there for a time, but
• 1:52
  there's a guy who's going to make it in the league.
• 1:54
  He got better in the back half of last year, but he was and.
• 1:57
  I would play them early, right? Yeah, it was one of the first
• 2:00
  Big 10 games, early October, late September.
• 2:03
  Late September. Yeah, no, I'm with you.
• 2:05
  Well, anyways, Vikings conversation at to kick off our
• 2:08
  number 2. And then Bill Bender got a lot
• 2:11
  of content on college football at the Sporting News, and we'll
• 2:15
  pick his brain on some of that about 125.
• 2:17
  Trent will make some picks, Circus sports sponsor those and
• 2:21
  we will turn things over to The Drive with Sean and Lucas.
• 2:25
  Boy, Sean's got to bounce in his step here today and I think
• 2:28
  understandably so. He secured the rights to
• 2:30
  Westwood one here locally and I feel bad for the the other
• 2:34
  affiliates out there. You can get it I'm sure as well
• 2:36
  or maybe you can. I'm not sure, but I know we have
• 2:39
  it here. I think it's outside of local
• 2:42
  programming, maybe as important a package as there's there out
• 2:46
  there. I mean, here's what it is.
• 2:47
  It's Thursday Night Football, it's Sunday Night Football, it's
• 2:51
  Monday Night Football. It's all playoff NFL football,
• 2:55
  including the Super Bowl. It's college football and we'll
• 2:58
  start with Ohio State and Texas. I get it, a lot of eyeballs in
• 3:01
  the state or on eye when Iowa State.
• 3:04
  And if you're not at the game, you're you're watching it or if
• 3:06
  you're in your car, whatever your tractor during the fall,
• 3:09
  during the harvest, you're listening to your team.
• 3:11
  I get it. But I think it's a great feather
• 3:13
  on a cap to have this. And oh by the way, maybe not got
• 3:15
  to the best part yet. Once Match Madness gets here.
• 3:19
  Thursday, Friday. Buckle up.
• 3:22
  Yes, TuneIn, because it's wall to wall.
• 3:25
  We won't be working. I remember back in the day when
• 3:27
  we had Westwood One. Not sure why we lost it, but we
• 3:30
  did. I think it was a deal when CBS
• 3:33
  bought. These Is that what it was
• 3:34
  Westwood? One, yeah, that it went to CBS
• 3:36
  Sports Radio, which was a property like that, cumulus, I
• 3:40
  think. Cumulus did, yeah.
• 3:41
  I think that's where the where it came from.
• 3:43
  Well, it's it's back here where it belongs.
• 3:45
  And KX&O is now the home of the Super Bowl in March Madness and
• 3:48
  college football and Army, Navy and all these big games that
• 3:52
  will take place. So well done, Sean Roberts
• 3:54
  getting that done. And you've got to bounce on your
• 3:56
  step and you deserve to do so because I think it's it really
• 4:00
  puts a stamp on Des Moines sports station, not just local,
• 4:04
  but when because I hate Fox. I'll be honest, when I was not
• 4:08
  Sean, I didn't have Sean's title.
• 4:09
  Yeah, But I when I was kind of, you know, the idea guy.
• 4:12
  Sure, I tried to cover up as much Fox as I could.
• 4:16
  Yeah, Yeah. Just something else, right?
• 4:18
  Yeah. There's no Cyclone show in the
• 4:20
  market. Let's start one of those.
• 4:21
  We did the hell? I put on a soccer show.
• 4:24
  You did, Yes. Do you guys to talk soccer?
• 4:28
  Just because I didn't want Fox, I wanted lien locals anyways.
• 4:31
  And it's it is a great thing. It really is.
• 4:33
  No, people are busy, You know, people who are don't have the
• 4:37
  advantages of you, that you're just your client all weekend
• 4:39
  long watching football, one of the.
• 4:40
  Kids needs a prescription, something happened, got to run
• 4:42
  to get a thermometer somewhere or whatever.
• 4:44
  You're out of soccer. I'm going to be at softball a
• 4:46
  bunch this fall, all the different sporting events as
• 4:48
  you're running around in your car, hopping around.
• 4:51
  And now on next Saturday, you can flip on Texas, Ohio State.
• 4:55
  You're going to be able to have that game here in central Iowa,
• 4:58
  Georgia, Tennessee, Nebraska, Michigan, Alabama, Georgia,
• 5:03
  Texas, Florida, Ohio State, Illinois, SMU, Clemson, SC
• 5:07
  against Alabama, on and on and on.
• 5:09
  These are the games that you're going to be able to get.
• 5:11
  And I will tell you of all the things and yes, Sunday Night
• 5:14
  Football, Thursday night, all those are excellent.
• 5:16
  Sure. What they do for March Madness
• 5:18
  because as you know, my family, we travel a lot because that's a
• 5:22
  lot of times the time that the only time that my wife can
• 5:24
  travel during the spring. So we'll take a little trip and
• 5:27
  how many times I've been locked into Westwood 1 making a drive
• 5:30
  somewhere and listening to the games, what they do in their
• 5:34
  wrap around coverage, it's phenomenal.
• 5:35
  It's reminiscent of what CBS was for so long, bouncing around to
• 5:40
  the games. Before we had all the options.
• 5:42
  Right where everything was on. That was not the Yes youngsters.
• 5:45
  TTBS. This was a different world that
• 5:47
  we lived in and it just it was up to CBS and your local
• 5:50
  affiliate what game you're watching and then how they were
• 5:53
  going to be bouncing around. That's what Westwood One does.
• 5:56
  It's incredible coverage and I think people back here having it
• 5:59
  back on Des Moines Sports station, it's going to be a big.
• 6:01
  Deal not. Couldn't agree with you more.
• 6:02
  Well done, Sean Roberts. Feather in your cap.
• 6:05
  Take a bow, young man. You'll hear him at 2:00 along
• 6:08
  with Lucas Strain when they come on.
• 6:10
  All right, Monday Night Football for last night.
• 6:12
  Good pick, by the way, on your Bengals.
• 6:14
  Prognosticity. The only good one I had, yeah.
• 6:15
  But baseball was down in flames, but well, well, well footballed,
• 6:20
  you know, where are you on the AFC Nord?
• 6:21
  What? Let me phrase that I'm going to
• 6:23
  start with one team in particular.
• 6:24
  OK, Can Aaron Rodgers really get this Steelers team to a playoff?
• 6:29
  And and what what I what I mean by that is can they finish ahead
• 6:33
  of the Ravens? I still think the Bengals, as
• 6:36
  bad as that defence is. And how about the offensive
• 6:38
  line? I thought Jabro was going to get
• 6:40
  killed last night there. Was a couple times it looked
• 6:42
  like he was going to. Oh my God, that he must have
• 6:44
  lost 20 something yards on that one scramble.
• 6:45
  He kept running backwards. Just get down.
• 6:50
  Can the can the Steelers out finish one of those two teams
• 6:52
  'cause I think they'll probably have to to get into the play out
• 6:54
  because the AFC West is not going to be a one bid team.
• 6:59
  I mean, there's, there's I think a couple of wildcards coming out
• 7:02
  of there, I think. What about the Steelers?
• 7:06
  Where are you? Statistically, he'll be able to
• 7:09
  surpass, I think what they got last year at the quarterback
• 7:12
  position between Fields and Wilson.
• 7:14
  And a big part of that was the sacks.
• 7:16
  I think that offensive line is going to be better for
• 7:18
  Pittsburgh. They had 49 sacks a year ago.
• 7:20
  Yeah, really. And with two guys that can move
• 7:22
  around in Wilson and Fields, that's a little bit concerning,
• 7:25
  but I think they are better there.
• 7:26
  But have you seen Rogers this this pre season trying to run
• 7:29
  around? Everybody keeps saying he's
• 7:31
  slow. He is slow because he's old and
• 7:33
  he's coming. Still two years ago.
• 7:34
  But he used to be a threat with his legs.
• 7:37
  After an Achilles injury in your 40s, that's not going to happen.
• 7:40
  You're not getting that back. He still look at him
• 7:43
  statistically a year ago. Well, he wasn't brutal.
• 7:45
  No, it wasn't Aaron Rodgers. And you take a team that every
• 7:49
  single year is going to be at minimum, OK, That's what Tomlin,
• 7:53
  that is the baseline. You're going to be OK.
• 7:55
  You're a 500 team. You're a nine and eight team.
• 7:58
  A healthy Aaron Rodgers for 17 games, which is a stretch in his
• 8:02
  owner. I agree.
• 8:03
  But I believe that yeah, he can take them.
• 8:05
  You, you do. I do.
• 8:08
  I still have the thought that he can do that.
• 8:12
  Caleb Johnson, rave reviews. They absolutely love what he's
• 8:16
  doing there. And last year, Nachi Harris
• 8:19
  wasn't very good. Nope.
• 8:20
  Where did he end up? Is he in Chargerville?
• 8:23
  Is I. Think he might?
• 8:24
  Be he is, yeah, he's there. And what going to be Hopefully a
• 8:28
  Marion Hamptons backup. He's got a future ticket to him.
• 8:30
  16 to 1 to win Rookie of the year.
• 8:32
  Well done. From back in April, it was
• 8:35
  saying it was Jalen Warren. They're they've upgraded there.
• 8:38
  You think all right, you upgrade quarterback, you upgraded
• 8:40
  running back, you upgraded offensive line.
• 8:43
  Even if you do take a small step back defensively, which they
• 8:47
  probably will, that team can go 11 and six with a couple of
• 8:50
  bounces. Did they up?
• 8:51
  Yeah, maybe. Did they upgrade receiver
• 8:54
  Pickens out? Well, Pickens is such a Mel
• 8:56
  content, right? I mean, it's just one head old.
• 8:59
  Is Metcalf now? What draft was he 19?
• 9:01
  Something like that, yeah. 2019 second round pick.
• 9:04
  Remember he showed up without a shirt on or something at the
• 9:08
  anyways and he looked like he looked the part, Yes.
• 9:10
  My God, looks like he's 270 lbs. Oh my God.
• 9:13
  Cut. Yes, thick.
• 9:16
  Yeah, he is a thick, thick guy. Yeah, I think so.
• 9:20
  Just because Pickens. It just you're always waiting
• 9:23
  for the other shoe to drop with him too.
• 9:24
  Like for him with the tight end defensively, Cameron Hayward not
• 9:28
  getting any younger. But you know what?
• 9:29
  They got the great equalizer, right?
• 9:31
  TJ Watt. Yes, again, if healthy.
• 9:33
  If healthy, Yep. If healthy and he hasn't been
• 9:35
  able to stay healthy. That's been a huge, huge issue
• 9:38
  there. Back end.
• 9:40
  Darius Slay comes in, he's good. He's still got something left in
• 9:43
  the tank. Yeah, but coming to the end, but
• 9:44
  I don't disagree with you. Jalen Ramsey now at the nickel
• 9:48
  spot, but I think there's still something there and him as a
• 9:51
  nickel slot has been tremendous. Joey Porter, we think there's
• 9:55
  another layer for him. I.
• 9:56
  Think he's terrific, I mean. That back four, he's pretty
• 9:59
  salty. Yeah, I I like them.
• 10:02
  Let me look at their schedule. That's a good idea, yes.
• 10:05
  I need to do the same thing. Good.
• 10:07
  God, if they don't start 3. And no, there should be an
• 10:09
  investigation. OK, who do they call?
• 10:11
  At Jet. Oh, that's your that's a dinger.
• 10:13
  Hello, Aaron Rodgers Bowl at Jet's home to Seattle.
• 10:16
  At New England. Well, at New England, you're not
• 10:20
  buying that New England hype. Are you?
• 10:21
  No, no, not at all. And they'll host Minnesota.
• 10:24
  That's a win. Well, no, that's that's over
• 10:26
  across the pond. That's right.
• 10:28
  That's that's back to one of the back to backers.
• 10:31
  You're aware, JJ McCarthy's Viking?
• 10:33
  I do, yes. That's why I said that's a win.
• 10:35
  All right, then they come back from there.
• 10:36
  They get to buy Cleveland, Cincy, Green Bay in the
• 10:40
  Chargers, Cincy. This team might win 11 games.
• 10:43
  They might win 11 games. OK, where's the tough part of
• 10:46
  their schedule? They're not like a daunting 4
• 10:49
  game stretch. There's that stretch from
• 10:52
  starting in LA against the Chargers at the Chargers, home
• 10:56
  for Cincy in Chicago, home for Buffalo at Baltimore.
• 11:00
  That's a pretty salty that's. Pretty good.
• 11:02
  That's pretty good. You get through that two and
• 11:04
  three, though. Yeah, you're in good shape.
• 11:06
  Their last three at Detroit, at Cleveland, home to Baltimore.
• 11:11
  Baltimore. The team to beat?
• 11:12
  Yes, you bet them every. Year.
• 11:13
  Oh, absolutely. They're Baltimore portfolios are
• 11:16
  chargers and the Bengals are to me.
• 11:18
  Well, I wish I could. I wish I didn't pull the trigger
• 11:20
  on the Bengals tickets that I've got.
• 11:22
  I just, they have no defense, Trent, they don't.
• 11:25
  And they're looking to. Are they really going to try to
• 11:28
  trade Hendrickson? They'll be out of their minds if
• 11:29
  they do. He's their own.
• 11:31
  He's their only guy and every everybody knows that that they
• 11:35
  play again. And he still did.
• 11:37
  He lead the league in tackles. He led the league in something
• 11:39
  last year. He's unbelievable.
• 11:42
  Here's Cincinnati's first six. OK, because they can always get
• 11:47
  off to a slow start. Every single That's why they're
• 11:49
  playing Borough. That's why they're playing
• 11:50
  borough if they don't get off to Two and O this year at
• 11:54
  Cleveland, home to Jacksonville. Have to do it.
• 11:56
  Have to have to. Because then at Mini at Denver.
• 11:59
  Detroit at Minnesota is a win. You don't like this team, do
• 12:03
  you? I mean, I know you don't like
• 12:05
  them, but do you like them on the field?
• 12:07
  This. Year I've already given you a
• 12:08
  hard time and given the Vikings fans a hard time than anything.
• 12:10
  I mean, talk about digging your heels in now.
• 12:12
  I'm kind of, I'm pot committed at this point that the Vikings
• 12:15
  are not going to be very good at this.
• 12:16
  Point because of McCarthy. I love the defense.
• 12:18
  I love Flores. Yeah, I I love 2 through 53 of
• 12:23
  that team. They might have as good a roster
• 12:25
  as anybody 2 through 53. That's not crazy.
• 12:28
  The problem? We don't know.
• 12:29
  Is the most important position. In sports and Max Brosmer
• 12:34
  waiting in the wings, you. Think he's going to win that
• 12:36
  backup job, huh? I think he's got a.
• 12:38
  Chance. I really do.
• 12:39
  How long did Addison get? Was he suspended four games or
• 12:42
  six games? I thought it was 4.
• 12:45
  So he's out for a while, obviously.
• 12:48
  Let's see, suspension start at the beginning of the year.
• 12:51
  That takes me to something we didn't get to last week.
• 12:56
  Speaking of Addison, you know they got all the information
• 13:00
  right about what happened, the details, a three-game
• 13:05
  suspension, by the way, and now we have Rishi Rice.
• 13:11
  Yep. What's the whole they're not
• 13:13
  ready? I I don't.
• 13:15
  I don't either. I don't either.
• 13:18
  We do not believe in no. We have fun with conspiracy
• 13:22
  theories. The Chiefs won.
• 13:24
  It seems like it goes their way more often than not, Trent.
• 13:28
  You're a Broncos fan, put that in there.
• 13:31
  I am not. I don't care about the division.
• 13:34
  The Chiefs are incredibly important to our market.
• 13:36
  We get that. But isn't this very difficult to
• 13:41
  sell for the NFL? July 17th, Vikings receiver
• 13:47
  Jordan Addison resolved ADUI citation pleaded guilty to a
• 13:52
  lesser demeanor misdemeanor. Thus opening the window for the
• 13:56
  NFL to rule. He'll miss the first three
• 13:58
  games. Also on July 17th, Rashe Rice
• 14:02
  pleaded guilty to a pair of felonies arising from A
• 14:05
  streetcar crash that was caught on video.
• 14:08
  He'll serve 30 days and spend five years on probation.
• 14:12
  His disciplinary hearing what happened until September 30th?
• 14:17
  And then they suspend him immediately because that would
• 14:19
  be Jacksonville, Detroit, Vegas if it's three games.
• 14:23
  Now, this is not to negate what Addison did, not to downplay
• 14:31
  what he did, but Rashe Rice, we're talking about a felony.
• 14:37
  Left the scene, right? Felony.
• 14:39
  Yep. As opposed to.
• 14:42
  Three games. It has to be.
• 14:43
  It has to be, absolutely, yeah. Double that, Triple that.
• 14:48
  No, I don't know about triple that.
• 14:52
  I mean, I'm I'm all for it. I'm not sure if I get my if I
• 14:55
  get my say I just. How the NFL on something like
• 15:01
  this with a team that they know. You remember how pissy Goodell
• 15:06
  got when the question came up at the Super Bowl last year about
• 15:08
  that? He hated it.
• 15:10
  And he should, because that should not be a question that
• 15:13
  anybody would have to ask a commissioner of a sport, no.
• 15:15
  Because it cut. It's right at the integrity of
• 15:17
  your league. But it did.
• 15:19
  It did. It annoyed him, and then you
• 15:21
  come back and you have an opportunity to change that
• 15:24
  narrative. Right off the bat, drop the
• 15:26
  hammer. If you do nothing, Nope.
• 15:28
  We'll see you at the end of September.
• 15:29
  Yep, not a good look for the NFL.
• 15:32
  No, Yeah, I'm not. It's it's going to be September
• 15:36
  30th. You said yes is when they're
• 15:38
  gonna get around to doing it. We'll see.
• 15:40
  We'll see. And what have they got behind?
• 15:43
  Him. I like the depth that they have
• 15:47
  created. Obviously worthy.
• 15:50
  Hollywood Brown, Is he good to go?
• 15:53
  I. Think so.
• 15:53
  And Hopkins didn't come back, right, Did they?
• 15:55
  Did They did not resign him. He was kind of at the end
• 15:58
  anyway. Shuster's been around forever.
• 16:00
  Smith's Shuster. Sky Moore.
• 16:02
  The Royals kid, I think they're excited about he that they got
• 16:06
  in the fourth round out of Utah State.
• 16:08
  He's a speed guy. Is he?
• 16:10
  Taekwon Thornton, we've heard about him the last couple of
• 16:12
  years from Mitch. He's talked about him.
• 16:15
  They have some depth there. But Xavier Worthy, I mean, just
• 16:18
  look at the production that he had in the back half of the last
• 16:21
  year when it felt like he was trying to figure out how to be
• 16:23
  an NFL wide receiver, right? Didn't he?
• 16:26
  Didn't he have a great Super Bowl?
• 16:27
  He did. He had a great back half of the
• 16:29
  season. I mean the improvements that he
• 16:31
  made from a season ago. And if this is a guy that is
• 16:34
  going to understand all those little nuances of being a wide
• 16:37
  receiver because in terms of speed, just being able to get
• 16:40
  open, he has all that, that's the guy that I look at.
• 16:43
  How many calls do you think the Bengals are getting today but
• 16:46
  with from receiver needy teams When it comes to that Tinsley
• 16:49
  guy? Did you see his pitches for
• 16:50
  touchdowns even? Went up high.
• 16:52
  Did you know who he was prior to last night?
• 16:54
  I didn't either. No.
• 16:56
  What? And he played at Penn State?
• 16:58
  Yes. And he's been around the league
• 16:59
  for a couple years and just done practiced.
• 17:01
  Well, no, he didn't know that. Yeah, my God.
• 17:04
  And contorting his body. I mean, he looked phenomenal
• 17:06
  last night. Not a bad guy, and so did Jake.
• 17:09
  Browning, by the way. Yes, that's part of the handicap
• 17:11
  that was. Part of the handy that was that
• 17:13
  was a good part of the handicap. Jake Browning, Well, we saw when
• 17:15
  Burl got hurt, right? We thought that they would fall
• 17:18
  off the Cliff, but Jake Browning wasn't brutal.
• 17:21
  Yes. No, not at all.
• 17:23
  Well, so the Steelers are in in your mind?
• 17:26
  I have them in. What we next was it next week
• 17:29
  we're going to be doing that going on record, going on
• 17:31
  record. We're getting close.
• 17:33
  Well, we can even wait another week if if necessary, but then
• 17:35
  we're going to be deep into. It we'll be a side hawk by then
• 17:37
  though. So what are you feeling like
• 17:39
  with K State, Iowa State as as we sit here on Tuesday, where
• 17:44
  are you leading? We've talked about this K State.
• 17:46
  You are. Yes.
• 17:47
  What is about the is Ava Johnson?
• 17:49
  It's that. Yeah.
• 17:51
  It's last year. It's the fact that that that
• 17:55
  left a horrible taste in their mouths last year.
• 17:57
  And I just can't get past the fact the two 100 receptions or
• 18:03
  whatever had they had last year, what whatever Higgins, Noel had
• 18:07
  combined 167 catches, walked out the door, walked out the door.
• 18:13
  I mean, ran out of eligibility, but they're not there.
• 18:16
  I can't get past how good those two guys were.
• 18:20
  And you just don't replace them. And I've heard a million times
• 18:23
  about the offensive line and I think this year is going to be
• 18:26
  better. But I've heard it before, right?
• 18:28
  Yes, I've heard it before too many times.
• 18:31
  And and Rocco Beck, as much as you, you love them.
• 18:35
  There's always one of those places, you know, God, you.
• 18:37
  I can't believe he did that. The defensive front.
• 18:42
  Do they have enough guys? Do they have enough guys?
• 18:45
  We're talking about a true freshman behind Alma Orange
• 18:47
  right now. It'll be.
• 18:48
  And they love them. Now Hawk will go in before we
• 18:51
  get to more, but still. They love them.
• 18:53
  That was one thing that also jumped out that we didn't talk
• 18:55
  about yesterday with the depth chart is after the guys that we
• 18:58
  do, the starters, what we anticipated, it's really young
• 19:02
  in those second spots. There's a lot of those.
• 19:05
  Yeah, when we got an OR and an OR and it's a red shirt freshman
• 19:08
  and another red shirt freshman, that was something that jumped
• 19:11
  out to me is the youth that and it's great for the future, but
• 19:15
  if injuries do hit and we'll see that injury report tomorrow, but
• 19:19
  if injuries do hit, looks like a pretty young team.
• 19:22
  So let's stop there for a second and we got to get to break
• 19:24
  because Ellie Clough is coming up.
• 19:25
  What do we think is going to happen with this, with the
• 19:28
  injury report when it comes to Iowa State?
• 19:30
  I mean, how serious will they take it?
• 19:33
  Don't they have to start out somewhat yet?
• 19:35
  We're going to play by the rules, but they're the first
• 19:37
  ones to go. They are.
• 19:39
  It's, it's them and it's Campbell and climbing.
• 19:41
  And are they on the phone with each other?
• 19:42
  How are you going to handle what?
• 19:43
  Are you I, I would anticipate right.
• 19:45
  You're going to see, well, I'm sure all the coaches, if you
• 19:47
  have some kind of connection, you're going to be talking how
• 19:50
  how are you doing this? If a guy's banged up, I I even
• 19:53
  put him on the list, he's going to play.
• 19:55
  Is it worth doing that? Are you going to have a list of
• 19:57
  30 guys? And and what and what if and
• 19:59
  what if they do play around with it?
• 20:00
  What's the ramifications? Probably a slap on the wrist.
• 20:03
  It's going to be nothing significant until you do it
• 20:06
  multiple times. We probably won't even hear
• 20:08
  about it. I I wouldn't get a guess that
• 20:09
  those first cases of this in doing.
• 20:11
  This. What could they possibly take
• 20:13
  away postseason eligibility? I don't think they are either.
• 20:17
  Michigan cheated their ass off and they didn't get postseason
• 20:19
  banned. I mean come on, that's not
• 20:20
  happening. Slap on the wrist, a couple,
• 20:24
  $100 fine probably. I don't think there's going to
• 20:28
  be any teeth to it. I mean, you're going to have to
• 20:30
  be pretty egregious, I think, to get to the point that all of a
• 20:33
  sudden we're going to get this, Trevor.
• 20:35
  Downing week to week, he didn't play the whole year.
• 20:37
  And even that he was week to week.
• 20:40
  I mean you can make the argument he was week to week, he just
• 20:43
  never made it. Yeah, Week 26 to week 46, he was
• 20:46
  week to week. Take your time out, come back.
• 20:49
  We'll be joined by Elliott Clef. He covers Iowa.
• 20:52
  That's coming up next. But by point in Iowa State, they
• 20:54
  could be. In the first three games they go
• 20:56
  3 and O, they go on three. I don't think they're going on
• 20:59
  three, I don't think. I think South Dakota is a
• 21:01
  trickier spot than you think. I can't get there.
• 21:03
  I know, I know. How many times have you seen
• 21:06
  these FCS teams come in and give them fits?
• 21:09
  But those were programs a tier above even South Dakota.
• 21:13
  As good as South Dakota is right, they're always a step.
• 21:16
  You and I. Yeah.
• 21:18
  You and I. South Dakota State South Dakota
• 21:22
  State North. Dakota State whooped them, yes.
• 21:25
  I mean, they give them fits. And you know what they're going
• 21:27
  to be doing on Saturday, sitting in front of their TV scouting
• 21:30
  this Iowa State squad. And they've been preparing all
• 21:34
  year long for a game one when they get to play a heavy head, a
• 21:37
  team that won 11 games in the last year.
• 21:40
  You take that scalp. Miller Condon underway on
• 21:44
  Tuesday. It's the Iowa Sports Radio
• 21:46
  Network. I'm Miller Congon, welcome back
• 21:55
  12:30 on a Tuesday. Still to come this hour, Mitch
• 21:58
  Holtis, voice of the Chiefs daily.
• 22:01
  Chiefs training camp report coming up in about 15 minutes.
• 22:04
  A little bit longer than that. Papa John's wrote the state of
• 22:08
  Iowa sponsor Mitch on a daily basis.
• 22:11
  Let's get to Elliott Clef. He covers Iowa for 24/7 sports.
• 22:15
  hawkeyeinsider.com. Elliott Trenton, Ken, thank you
• 22:18
  again for joining us this week. Appreciate you coming on.
• 22:22
  I want to start with kind of a question and asking most of our
• 22:26
  Hawkeye guests over the last little while.
• 22:28
  When it comes to the Hawkeye football schedule, you can't say
• 22:31
  Penn State or Oregon, but what's a potential game that seemingly
• 22:35
  everybody's looking past? But in your mind, for whatever
• 22:39
  reason, right or wrong that this game thinks might deserve a
• 22:44
  little bit closer look, what, what would that game be, Elliot?
• 22:49
  Yeah, Ken, the the five games on this schedule, those two that
• 22:54
  you mentioned, Oregon, Penn State are, are definitely the
• 22:57
  headliners when you first look at the schedule.
• 22:59
  After that, I look at at 3 separate games.
• 23:02
  First one's going to be probably USC because California's never
• 23:05
  been kind to Kirk Barron or or really the Iowa football program
• 23:09
  in the last like what, 50 years? The that that's one game that
• 23:15
  sticks out. I almost look at that one, you
• 23:17
  know, we we still have a lot to learn about well, one this Iowa
• 23:20
  team, but UFC 2 and I almost look at that one as an automatic
• 23:24
  loss. Like UCLA was not that good last
• 23:28
  year and I will went out there and and laid an egg in that
• 23:31
  game. Of course, Jay Higgins getting
• 23:33
  hurt didn't help. But then you look at at Indiana,
• 23:38
  which last time they came to Kinnock, I was just crushed them
• 23:41
  with even with Michael Pennock at the helm.
• 23:43
  But this is a different theme with Kurt Stignetti, I think.
• 23:46
  I mean, Fernando Mendoza is very legit coming over from Cal.
• 23:50
  And then lastly, I mean, Iowa State, like obviously Iowa State
• 23:55
  hasn't, hasn't beaten Iowa under Matt Campbell in in, in aim
• 24:01
  since Campbell took over. But we're about to release our
• 24:04
  our season predictions on 24/7. We're doing that tomorrow,
• 24:08
  myself, Dave and Sean. And I think I'm probably going
• 24:10
  to be the only one picking Iowa State in that game.
• 24:12
  But that that's one that could definitely dictate the season.
• 24:15
  I mean, we saw that last year, that team was looking to
• 24:18
  hopefully make the CFP and then losing that game.
• 24:22
  Well, the air kind of went out of the stadium in in a way, even
• 24:25
  though it was early on in the season and they lost that game
• 24:28
  to Ohio State, Michigan State, UCLAI mean, it just was a season
• 24:32
  that kind of ended up being a disappointment.
• 24:33
  So I would say in order of import, Iowa State probably up
• 24:38
  there. But Indiana, I feel like Indiana
• 24:40
  is a game in terms of just overlooking it.
• 24:42
  Indiana's got to be up there because, yeah, they lose their
• 24:45
  starting quarterback. They had a really easy schedule
• 24:47
  last year, but they bring back a really solid defense.
• 24:51
  They got a really good quarterback coming over in
• 24:54
  Mendoza. So it's got to be Indiana to me
• 24:58
  in terms of of a game that I think people are overlooking.
• 25:01
  Offensively, deep running, backroom feels like they have a
• 25:04
  bunch of receivers. Not sure if they're top end, but
• 25:06
  there's at least competent guys out there.
• 25:08
  The one question remains left tackle, is this Trevor Lock's
• 25:11
  job? I mean, would it take a a
• 25:13
  monstrous upset to not see him go out there and not get the
• 25:17
  opening snaps of the season out of left tackle?
• 25:20
  At this point, that's that's my read of it.
• 25:22
  That's that's kind of what we're hearing behind the scenes is
• 25:25
  that it's Lau's job to lose at this point.
• 25:27
  That and and you know, conjecture around Lau being the
• 25:30
  more high end guy, the guy with more potential, I think is
• 25:34
  pushing him up up there towards the top two.
• 25:37
  It also something that is kind of a secondary story on that
• 25:41
  front. Is it probably, I mean, it may
• 25:45
  very well push Jack Dosler to be in the backup at right tackle
• 25:48
  and getting him some, maybe some reps this year.
• 25:51
  If Jennings dunker's, you know, injuries continue his injury
• 25:54
  this offseason, it continues to linger.
• 25:56
  And that also preps Jack Dosler to take over right tackle next
• 26:00
  season with Lauk presumably is your starter going into next
• 26:03
  year as well at left tackle. So to me, it's Lau's jobs to
• 26:07
  lose at this point. And and he he kind of fits the
• 26:11
  mold of what Iowa is right now. And like more or less what they
• 26:14
  have been is their strength is going to be running the ball.
• 26:17
  Their strength is going to be the play action pass.
• 26:19
  And and he kind of falls into that mold alongside the Jennings
• 26:23
  dunker, the Logan Jones, the both Steven.
• 26:25
  So not only not only the high end point of, you know, him
• 26:29
  being a four-star recruit who had offers from Ohio State and
• 26:31
  Michigan, but also the fact that he just kind of fits the mold
• 26:34
  right now of what they want to do.
• 26:36
  He's not a prototypical left tackle size and and of course
• 26:39
  he's he's going to have his his struggles being in his first
• 26:42
  year starting. But but it is it is Laos job, at
• 26:45
  least from what I can tell right now.
• 26:47
  What? What have you heard?
• 26:49
  And I don't think you guys have an available coach availability
• 26:51
  this week. So where's Moulton and
• 26:53
  Patterson, both of whom were nicked up as far as their
• 26:56
  availability for the Albany game?
• 26:58
  Do we expect both of them to play?
• 27:01
  For right now, I would say so if a Patterson, as far as I know,
• 27:05
  he's good to go. Washington was the one that that
• 27:07
  sat out for Kids Day and he's been one that's that's been
• 27:10
  banged up a little bit. We might see, you know, a good
• 27:14
  chunk of those young running backs just so the the guys can
• 27:17
  that that are upper towards the top, can get a little healthy.
• 27:21
  Like I said, as far as I know, Jazz Patterson is is going to be
• 27:23
  good to go. But if they, you know, if they
• 27:26
  do sit out, if they do, you know, rest, it wouldn't
• 27:28
  necessarily surprise me for that first week because Albany is
• 27:32
  terrible. Like if we're being real,
• 27:35
  they've been a program that has been good in in recent memory.
• 27:38
  I guess that's, yes, they're in the SBS, but with the amount of
• 27:41
  turnover that they've had and as far as the roster, new head
• 27:45
  coach, like the IT should be just a win based on talent and
• 27:49
  size and ability to recruit alone for Iowa, one of those
• 27:52
  games. So it wouldn't shock me if you
• 27:55
  know Moulton in Washington, just just a sideline for that first
• 27:59
  game. As far as the timeline, I'm not
• 28:01
  entirely sure, but but yeah, I mean, it wouldn't it wouldn't be
• 28:04
  that much of a surprise to see some of those younger guys like
• 28:07
  Xavier Williams, who we've heard good things about, like Nathan
• 28:10
  McNeil, who may very well burn his red shirt in Year 1.
• 28:14
  But. But having Jazz Patterson out
• 28:16
  there probably to lead the group, if that, you know,
• 28:20
  scenario does come to fruition, will will provide a little bit
• 28:23
  of confidence and a guy that's been there done that and that we
• 28:25
  know is really hard to tackle. So, yeah, yeah, like I said, I
• 28:30
  don't really know the timeline with with those top two guys,
• 28:33
  but it also wouldn't surprise me if they're they're back and
• 28:36
  ready to go. Some of those injuries and
• 28:38
  offseason Nixon bruises can can be a little tricky.
• 28:41
  But yeah, I it would, you know, not season ending by any means
• 28:45
  at all for those top guys. All right, Elliot, it's time to
• 28:48
  have the marker now. Ski question.
• 28:51
  It's a prerequisite. As we talked about the
• 28:53
  quarterback position at Iowa Kids date, saw some good things,
• 28:56
  also some things that maybe kind of leave you scratching.
• 28:59
  There's been some reports that are out there, including you
• 29:00
  guys at Hawkeye Insider. This hasn't been 100% right.
• 29:03
  It hasn't been perfect by any means.
• 29:06
  Him coming off the injury, understanding the new offense,
• 29:09
  all the things. Can you tell us kind of the
• 29:10
  latest and give us the latest Intel that you have on the camp
• 29:13
  that we've heard from Mark Gordowski?
• 29:16
  Yeah. You know, like you said, it
• 29:18
  hasn't been perfect, and I think expecting it to be perfect
• 29:21
  isn't, you know, really rational.
• 29:25
  I mean, bringing a guy in from the FCS and considering, you
• 29:28
  know, the difficulties of The Cave McNamara era and having
• 29:30
  those high expectations, it's just not fair.
• 29:33
  Now, you know, something that I've said to you guys multiple
• 29:36
  times is that it is a different situation.
• 29:38
  Mark Granowski is a different leader in that respect.
• 29:42
  And he's got the experience. He's done a lot of really good
• 29:45
  things. They did a lot of really good
• 29:47
  things. South Dakota State, but right, I
• 29:49
  mean, it's practice in the middle of August.
• 29:53
  I mean, I don't know how much you guys have heard about the,
• 29:56
  the, the scrimmage that happened this last Saturday, but
• 30:00
  supposedly Mark didn't didn't play all that great, but it was
• 30:02
  also 120° on the field. So I'd be surprised if anybody
• 30:06
  played all that great. So, you know, the the offense
• 30:10
  has been really focused on the passing game.
• 30:13
  So you know, more reps, more opportunities to to make
• 30:17
  mistakes. So it's it's going to look less
• 30:19
  perfect even in that respect. But they are really focused in
• 30:22
  on that because the run game has been so solid and so good under
• 30:26
  Tim Lester. And they've got these guys,
• 30:28
  these young guys with experience that have been playing well and
• 30:31
  picking up the offense. So the focus has really been in
• 30:33
  the past game and it's provided a lot of opportunities for Mark
• 30:36
  to continue to grow in the respect of building chemistry.
• 30:41
  And I have heard he's starting to sharpen up a little bit in
• 30:43
  terms of minimizing the turnovers, minimizing the botch
• 30:46
  snaps, minimizing those type of things and and hitting more
• 30:50
  throws with a more consistent basis.
• 30:53
  Is it perfect? Is it, you know, the the
• 30:56
  greatest offense then I don't know the the run and gun of
• 31:01
  2002. Probably not like that's a safe
• 31:05
  bet to say not at this point in time, but they are starting and
• 31:09
  work some things out. And I, I, I do still have
• 31:12
  relatively higher expectations for Granowski as opposed to
• 31:16
  maybe other quarterbacks of the last decade.
• 31:18
  But yeah, it's, it's not going to come, You know, it's not
• 31:22
  going to come without its issues.
• 31:24
  Like Mark Gronowski is going to throw an interception.
• 31:26
  There's going to be fumble this year.
• 31:27
  Like that's, that's, it's not going to be perfect, but but it
• 31:31
  will be better. And, and there are going to be
• 31:34
  struggles at this point in the year.
• 31:35
  They're really just figuring things out still.
• 31:37
  And they've got a couple weeks to, to, to continue to figure it
• 31:40
  out. And I, I, I do think that the
• 31:42
  offense is going to get progressively better throughout
• 31:44
  the, the fall. So you're going to see you're
• 31:47
  going to see some rust I think to start the year.
• 31:51
  But as long as they can get past that Iowa State game and and
• 31:54
  make it unscathed, I think they have a real opportunity to to
• 31:57
  have some serious offensive success this year, particularly
• 32:02
  in the passing game once they get some of those things worked
• 32:05
  out. If he throws a pick in that
• 32:06
  first series, Oh my gosh, yeah, grumbling.
• 32:10
  Hey, last thing for you. But we've got about a minute
• 32:12
  left here, Elliot, when when we do get a depth chart, I guess
• 32:15
  that'll be Monday, right of of next of next week.
• 32:19
  Is there an or between Brown and Heklinski or just Brown?
• 32:23
  Does he outright win the backup job?
• 32:25
  Because we I keep hearing good things about Heklinski and if he
• 32:29
  was here in the spring, this thing would be a real fight.
• 32:33
  Yeah, yeah. I would say if he was in the
• 32:36
  spring, I would be more inclined to say that there's an OR
• 32:39
  between those two. But right now it's Brown.
• 32:42
  I mean, he's been taking reps for one too.
• 32:43
  They've been splitting reps with him and Mark Granowski.
• 32:46
  So and obviously he didn't look great with the ones at Kids Day,
• 32:49
  but Brown is really impressed. Like I'm sure you guys have
• 32:53
  heard the quote from Tim Lester saying he had an unbelievable
• 32:56
  camp. I mean, he's he's legit like
• 33:00
  we'll probably be talking more about the OR or or who, you
• 33:04
  know, takes over the starting job between those two next year.
• 33:07
  But for right now, I think it's Brown as as the backup.
• 33:10
  And I think he's pretty firmly the backup with Hecklinski
• 33:13
  having basically just arrived. It's it's just different, right?
• 33:16
  Like, and there's the age difference.
• 33:19
  So So to me, it's pretty firmly that pretty firm rather that
• 33:22
  that Hank Brown is QB 2 for the Hawk.
• 33:25
  Good stuff Elliot, as always, appreciate your we'll run you
• 33:28
  down next week, Sir. Thank you Elliot Cliff,
• 33:30
  appreciate you coming on. Sounds good.
• 33:32
  Thanks guys. Yep, good to talk to you,
• 33:34
  Elliot. Cliff, as we check in on the
• 33:36
  Hawks, Mitch Holtis is Nexus his daily Chiefs training camp
• 33:38
  report. Papa John's throughout Iowa
• 33:40
  sponsor those Miller and Condon on the Iowa Sports Radio
• 33:43
  Network. Hi, Miller and Condon, welcome
• 33:52
  back, Iowa Sports Radio Network, Trenton, Ken with you until
• 33:55
  2:00. Let's get to the voice of the
• 33:58
  Kansas City Chiefs. Mitch Holt's daily Chiefs
• 34:01
  training camp reports. Papa John's throughout the state
• 34:04
  of Iowa, headquartered in Johnson and the Donaldson family
• 34:06
  does such great work both with their grub, the pizza and what
• 34:10
  they do philanthropically. And we'll get to them in just a
• 34:13
  couple of moments. But Mitch, good to speak with
• 34:15
  you as always. I want to go.
• 34:17
  We're going to talk today about the Ashton Gelati.
• 34:20
  And I think back, Trent was on vacation so we wouldn't remember
• 34:23
  this. He wasn't here.
• 34:25
  I think it was probably day one, if it wasn't day one, it was day
• 34:28
  2. Very early in our conversations,
• 34:31
  Ashton Gelotti's name came up. Because I remember I couldn't
• 34:33
  pronounce it. I was glad you did.
• 34:36
  So he he's caught your eye, I guess where I'm going here
• 34:39
  throughout training camp, but he's in the focus here today.
• 34:44
  Yeah. And the new special has come
• 34:46
  from, I couldn't even tell you this.
• 34:48
  There's a new R&D location near Mitchellville, but I I can't.
• 34:53
  You get close to it, Trent. Don't get close to it.
• 34:56
  You'll end up being fish bait in the South Skunk River.
• 35:00
  Yeah, you don't want to be fish bait in the South Skunk River.
• 35:03
  All right, that's the Donaldson. So they got this moving lab, but
• 35:07
  you'll be like trying to get to the B2 at Whiteman Air Force
• 35:10
  Base. All right, Gelati, third round
• 35:13
  pick again. This looks like the third round
• 35:15
  has been the money round for the Chiefs, Kelsey down through the
• 35:19
  years and others. But this guy can I'm going to
• 35:22
  tell you guy, he looks like his body type's a little bit
• 35:26
  different. He's got more of a bow.
• 35:27
  So look to him than the other guys that we've got.
• 35:30
  He's got like broader shoulders. He's super athletic and powerful
• 35:34
  and he has made an impact and he's kind of been overshadowed
• 35:38
  because of all the talk about Josh Simmons and even Jalen
• 35:41
  Royals. But this guy, Gelati, couldn't
• 35:44
  make his big impact as any rookie we've got now.
• 35:48
  I ask him about, you know, fighting through camp.
• 35:50
  His kids tough, but he's also athletic for Steeler fans.
• 35:54
  He'll give you a little bit of the Watt boys.
• 35:57
  Not trying to get ahead of myself, but he looks like that.
• 35:59
  But I ask Ashton, fighting through camp.
• 36:02
  Obviously camp's tough. I mean, camp's always going to
• 36:05
  be tough, but especially getting it out when you're tired, long
• 36:09
  drive, drill, special teams, all that.
• 36:12
  So being able to make sure you just continue to push, I mean,
• 36:15
  that's that's what again, you got to be able to do it late,
• 36:17
  late in the game. Excited to you for your fit in
• 36:20
  this defense. And what have you learned so far
• 36:22
  of like, oh man, this is a perfect place to be.
• 36:24
  Now it's a great place. Obviously I have a lot of trust
• 36:26
  and Spags and what Coach Collins have been showing me and I'm
• 36:30
  just really willing and able to serve, you know what I'm saying?
• 36:33
  Just I. Asked George about you.
• 36:34
  I'm going to ask you about George and how much he's helped
• 36:36
  you and the fact that you guys kind of come in there like
• 36:38
  brothers. Yeah.
• 36:39
  George is like a, like a, like a shadow mentor.
• 36:42
  He doesn't, he doesn't say much, but when he speaks, I know you
• 36:45
  got to listen. He's always there, he's always
• 36:48
  watching. He's very attentive, so very
• 36:50
  smart guy, very technical. And he just, he gets it.
• 36:53
  He gets it done. And you know, just watching him
• 36:57
  is is one of the best ways to learn.
• 37:00
  Ken, I'm going to give you the Broncos some credit here.
• 37:02
  They've built a great defensive front.
• 37:05
  The Nick Benitos of the world, right?
• 37:07
  Zach Allen underrated. This kid is in that same genre.
• 37:11
  He will make an impact. Wait till you see him.
• 37:13
  You'll go. When did they get Nick Bosa?
• 37:15
  But that's what it looks like. And we got him in the third
• 37:17
  round. Athletic, he'll play special
• 37:19
  teams, explosive. He's just kind of under the
• 37:21
  radar because of these other guys. 39 sacks a year ago for
• 37:25
  the Chiefs. What's a target number?
• 37:27
  See that getting the quarterback at a higher rate this year?
• 37:30
  Here Is is 50 a realistic possibility?
• 37:33
  It has to be in my opinion to go next notch up and I will tell
• 37:37
  you they they've got to get pressure with four Trent.
• 37:40
  There has to be more snaps for the teeth to get more pressure
• 37:43
  with four guys and not just blitz and do 1 of Spegs exotic
• 37:47
  exotic blitzes. They were 26 in the league.
• 37:49
  I keep saying that in 3rd down, but they had a third and 13 the
• 37:53
  other night and the Seahawks get 14 yards.
• 37:55
  That's got it. That's got to go away for the
• 37:57
  chiefs to repeat in the division which is improved.
• 37:59
  We all know that they've got to be better at getting a four man
• 38:02
  rush and then getting there and it's not just the Sachs trend,
• 38:05
  it's the pressures. This kid Gelati was top five in
• 38:08
  the last two years at Louisville and all of FBS.
• 38:11
  All of them. Think of all those guys included
• 38:13
  in that of all the first round draft picks, top five in
• 38:17
  pressures. It's also about pressures and
• 38:19
  quarterback hits, enforcing or passes, defense knocked down,
• 38:23
  passes, the line of scrimmage. All of that adds up, including
• 38:26
  sacks, to give you a impactful defensive front like the Broncos
• 38:30
  have. Is there a a veteran or two
• 38:33
  Mitch that are really being pushed by some of these young
• 38:36
  guys like a Gelati, you know, some and some somebody that
• 38:40
  comes to mind that was a big part of this Chiefs team, but
• 38:42
  now this youth is starting to push.
• 38:46
  Mike Dana would be there not that he's bad.
• 38:48
  He's been some really good for us and I'm he's not in trouble.
• 38:51
  He's going to make the team, but in Geladi his you know, push to
• 38:57
  at least up to his status. Another one be Felix and Udiki
• 39:01
  Ozama, but we just put him on injured reserve yes.
• 39:03
  So he's done for the year with the hamstring serious hamstring
• 39:07
  injury. So concern for him.
• 39:09
  You know he's great at K state big toll defensive player of the
• 39:11
  year. He gets hurt again, but I would
• 39:13
  say Dana, I'll get a lot of snaps, but that that allows Dana
• 39:18
  to move inside and some of this combo inside, outside.
• 39:21
  But Geladi gives you explosiveness.
• 39:23
  He's different than Carloptus. Carloptus looks like a Sam
• 39:25
  Hendrickson type. But Geladi will just wait till
• 39:28
  you see him. And I don't want to get ahead of
• 39:30
  myself. I'm not calling him the the
• 39:31
  Bosses or the Watts, but he's got more of that kind of body
• 39:34
  type and yet he's still explosive and athletic.
• 39:37
  We shortchanged our fine sponsor yesterday.
• 39:39
  Let's give them their due. Let's talk about Papa John's and
• 39:42
  the Donalds. Yes, Trent.
• 39:44
  Trent, how many guys are on a basketball team?
• 39:46
  Well, basketball team like 13 at the collegiate level.
• 39:50
  No, I'm starting the starting. Oh. 5. 5 Five cheese garlic
• 39:56
  crust one topping pizza came out of this roving lab in
• 40:01
  Mitchellville. It's still there now, but a red
• 40:03
  dot is on your head, everybody if you try to find it.
• 40:06
  Red dot on your head 5 cheese, garlic crust, one topping.
• 40:10
  Wait for it, wait for it, 1199. How can they?
• 40:14
  Sell it. So 1199, your favorite number 11
• 40:16
  If I say #11 what? Comes to mind Drew Bledsoe.
• 40:21
  Drew Bledsoe and Wayne Gretzky. There you go.
• 40:23
  Drew Bledsoe, Wayne Gretzky for the five cheese garlic crust.
• 40:26
  One topic. Good stuff, brother.
• 40:28
  We'll, we'll talk to you tomorrow.
• 40:29
  Thank you pal. See you fellas.
• 40:31
  Yep, see you Mitch Holtz is the voice of the Kansas City Chiefs.
• 40:34
  Chiefs daily training camp report.
• 40:36
  Alex Smith Why did that jump in my head for 11?
• 40:39
  Don't know. Bledsoe for me.
• 40:40
  Hour 2 next. Mazatani on the Vikings kicks it
• 40:43
  off.
