2:21
Speaker 2: the jumbalaya is at six.
2:23
Speaker 3: Yeah, well it was a question mark at it. I
2:25
Speaker 3: was just confirming the time I said jambalaya. I think
2:30

2:34
Speaker 3: that knows jamboree is not a word. I said, Well,
2:36
Speaker 3: I said the gumbos at six. Yeah, so we nailed it.

2:57
Speaker 2: High had like a top player in the country, top
3:01
Speaker 2: five player in the country, regardless like what service you
3:03
Speaker 2: look at. And then Dunham's got a top five player
3:05

3:08
Speaker 2: site you look at.
3:09
Speaker 3: It's pretty cool.

3:21
Speaker 3: to go see him go out there, and I know
3:22

3:30
Speaker 3: but uh yeah, it's great to go see some really
3:33
Speaker 3: talented guys and kids. I mean, high school football is
3:36
Speaker 3: so fun to watch it's just men. The try hard
3:38
Speaker 3: that they have and the passion they play with is great.
3:41
Speaker 3: So yeah, a couple of it was a good, good match.
3:43
Speaker 3: I think you high scored a few more points. But
3:46
Speaker 3: there's plays made on both sides and some really good players.
3:50
Speaker 3: I saw. I was listening. I was the PA announcer
3:54
Speaker 3: came over and said the name Hester a couple of
3:56
Speaker 3: times he did. Yeah, so shout out for sure. I
4:00

6:44
Speaker 3: get this show started.
6:45
Speaker 2: Obviously, the big news for LSU football, LSU safety aj
6:49
Speaker 2: Halsey will miss the first half versus Clemson coming up
6:53
Speaker 2: tomorrow night. Dan, He's not gonna play in the first
6:56
Speaker 2: half because in his last game of.
6:58
Speaker 3: The twenty twenty four season when he was.
7:00
Speaker 2: Playing for Houston, he was ejected from the contest, and
7:06
Speaker 2: the rule state, if you are ejected for fighting, you
7:09
Speaker 2: have to If it's in the first half, you you know,
7:11
Speaker 2: obviously get kicked out for that game.
7:13
Speaker 3: You miss the second half of that game.
7:14
Speaker 2: If it's in the second half, you miss the first
7:16
Speaker 2: half of the next game. And this is the rule
7:19
Speaker 2: put into place. And for me, it's like, Okay, this
7:23
Speaker 2: happened when.
7:24
Speaker 3: Yeah, in twenty twenty four. Okay, it happened at the
7:28
Speaker 3: end of the season.
7:29
Speaker 2: So we're talking about in November of twenty twenty four
7:31
Speaker 2: going to effect August of twenty twenty five. And you
7:35
Speaker 2: can say, well, the rules of the rules, well, I
7:36
Speaker 2: can still say it's a dumb rule. I can still say, like,
7:39
Speaker 2: of all the things the NCAA doesn't care about anymore
7:44
Speaker 2: and just handways and turns of blind eye, like this
7:46
Speaker 2: is going to be the one the week of the
7:49
Speaker 2: game you're gonna tell LSU the week Thursday of game
7:54
Speaker 2: week in a top ten matchup that they're starting. Safety
7:57
Speaker 2: is not going to be in there. Like that's where
7:59
Speaker 2: I have issue. Even if like if you would have
8:01
Speaker 2: made sure LSU knew about this in May, all right, June,
8:08
Speaker 2: hell even July. Okay, you're telling them about it at least,
8:12
Speaker 2: but like to find out now, like that's the part.
8:14
Speaker 3: Like what are we even doing?
8:16
Speaker 4: Well?
8:17
Speaker 3: How would they how would else you not have seen
8:19
Speaker 3: this coming? If it was based on something that happened
8:24
Speaker 3: that was known about, right, How would they not have
8:26
Speaker 3: known the suspension was coming if the rule was already
8:28
Speaker 3: in place? I don't understand how that. It's kind of
8:31
Speaker 3: like a could be a surprise. I feel like you
8:34
Speaker 3: would have known that that was coming, But it is weird.
8:37
Speaker 3: It's just a strange story that that punishment wouldn't have
8:40
Speaker 3: been dealt out in reaction to whatever the whatever happened
8:45
Speaker 3: during the game. Now the game, of course, that was
8:47
Speaker 3: six months ago. Seven months ago, Yeah, which is which
8:50
Speaker 3: is mind bodeling, But yeah, it's it's it's extremely concerning
8:58
Speaker 3: for me going into this game.
9:00
Speaker 2: It's because I'm concerned because you've told me the entire
9:04
Speaker 2: lead up that safety.
9:05
Speaker 3: Was going to be the most important position for LSU. Yeah,
9:08
Speaker 3: and it's going to be the position that I'm watching
9:12
Speaker 3: the most, and this is certainly a concern for me.
9:14
Speaker 3: When the guy that's going to be playing a lot
9:16
Speaker 3: of safety for you and is a huge impact and
9:19
Speaker 3: was a All Big twelve player a year ago. It's
9:23
Speaker 3: a guy that I think that had a chance to
9:26
Speaker 3: be pretty impactful. So we got to rotate in. You
9:29
Speaker 3: got to put some guys in. But like Taylor has
9:31
Speaker 3: told us, you know, all through training camp, there's been
9:34
Speaker 3: a lot of rotation and in the secondary during training camp,
9:37
Speaker 3: so a lot of guys have got a lot of reps,
9:40
Speaker 3: a lot of playing time, and so you know, you
9:43
Speaker 3: got to go in there and play without him for
9:45
Speaker 3: one half. You got to keep Kate club macking the pocket.
9:47
Speaker 3: You got to keep him from running trying to got
9:49
Speaker 3: to keep him in that first half from making too
9:54
Speaker 3: many explosive plays. Like I said, he's going to make
9:56
Speaker 3: his plays. But for Halsey to get suspended, it's just
9:59
Speaker 3: a weird story to me. I just don't understand how
10:01
Speaker 3: something could happen with no, I'm with you that parton.
10:05
Speaker 3: Nobody know about it. The NCAA sit on their hands
10:09
Speaker 3: for so long and then deal out the suspension.
10:12
Speaker 2: Yeah, So the quote from Brian Kelly before he found
10:15
Speaker 2: out that this was going to in fact come across.
10:18
Speaker 2: We're waiting on clarification on that. This was Thursday before
10:22
Speaker 2: he found out. We were informed on his situation on Wednesday,
10:26
Speaker 2: So we'll see where that ends up. We're practicing him,
10:28
Speaker 2: preparing him to play. We'll wait for further guidance. And again,
10:33
Speaker 2: he's gonna play the game. She's gonna be in the
10:34
Speaker 2: second half. But I like, I am, I am with
10:37
Speaker 2: you as far as okay, Well, if this was the
10:39
Speaker 2: rule put into place, if you get thrown out for fighting,
10:42
Speaker 2: you got to miss a half, Like where was the miscommunication?
10:46
Speaker 2: And actually it stays with you if no matter if
10:48
Speaker 2: you change schools like aj Halsey did from Houston LSU.
10:52
Speaker 3: Yeah, that that's the part that to me is confusing
10:55
Speaker 3: and strange. It's like how maybe they thought even though
10:57
Speaker 3: Houston didn't play in a ballgame, maybe they thought like
11:00
Speaker 3: that space was going to be right.
11:02
Speaker 2: Where it would take effect. Even though you didn't play
11:03
Speaker 2: in a ball game, that's still not gonna happen.
11:05
Speaker 3: And you would think if there's no communication from unless
11:08
Speaker 3: like unless the kid and they they didn't tell LSU
11:12
Speaker 3: that there was just like if if it didn't, wasn't
11:15
Speaker 3: this big thing, this big public thing that was on
11:17
Speaker 3: he has been about this fight because it wasn't in
11:19
Speaker 3: a bowl game. Yeah maybe at that point, nay, just
11:22
Speaker 3: like hey just tells the kid or tells Maybe they
11:24
Speaker 3: told the University of Houston and they didn't tell the kid.
11:28
Speaker 3: So I don't know. It's just a strange situation. And
11:33
Speaker 3: unfortunately that happens right now. And of course I'm going
11:36
Speaker 3: to blame the NCAA on this one. That was dumb
11:38
Speaker 3: to wait this long. What are we doing?
11:41
Speaker 2: Well, they were, you know, they were they were worried
11:43
Speaker 2: about the Michigan situation that they came down so hard
11:45
Speaker 2: on Michigan.
11:46
Speaker 3: For Yeah, that's true. They had they had bigger things, bigger.
11:49
Speaker 2: Fish tore fry a lot of people are, you know,
11:53
Speaker 2: letting Clemson know snitches get stitches as well.
11:57
Speaker 3: Apparently this was Clemson that made the aware that's your guy, Devo,
12:03
Speaker 3: that's my guy. Yeah, I'm the guy that said he
12:05
Speaker 3: was gonna get injured right down the hill. That's my guy. Okay, yeah, yep,
12:09
Speaker 3: absolutely so.
12:11
Speaker 2: Now it's okay, well, how do you replace a J.
12:14
Speaker 2: Hawston Because you're not going to get the same level plate.
12:18
Speaker 2: That's the obvious dament. There's a reason why he was
12:19
Speaker 2: a starter. There's a reason why you got him from Houston.
12:22
Speaker 2: There was a reason why he was an All Conference player.
12:24
Speaker 2: Is it gonna be Jordan Gilbert, Javin Tobiano, Is it
12:28
Speaker 2: going to be Deshaun Spears. It's going to be a
12:31
Speaker 2: combination of all three of those players, Like that's gonna
12:34
Speaker 2: be Like you you have another transfer into Marcus Cooley obviously,
12:38
Speaker 2: and he had a similar situation, but he's going to
12:40
Speaker 2: be good to go, and it is.
12:43
Speaker 3: Going to We got a couple of guys transferring to
12:46
Speaker 3: have a fight in them. Huh yeah. Literally, little dog,
12:50
Speaker 3: little dog in him. I like it.
12:52
Speaker 2: So you look, you have a very veteran player in
12:55
Speaker 2: Jordan Gilbert. Now he is healthy. Last year he was
12:58
Speaker 2: not healthy the entire way. You have experience, So I'll
13:04
Speaker 2: throw that back to you. All right, He's a player
13:07
Speaker 2: that's been last year. I mean, he was a full
13:09
Speaker 2: time starter. LSU wanted to upgrade at the position, that's
13:12
Speaker 2: no secret. But he does have starting experience and multiple
13:17
Speaker 2: sec schools. I do find that to be a better
13:19
Speaker 2: situation than if you were trying to play a freshman,
13:22
Speaker 2: a rech air freshman that had never been in the
13:24
Speaker 2: thick of it. I mean Jardan Gilbert at least, I
13:26
Speaker 2: mean he played at A and M, he's played at LSU.
13:28
Speaker 3: The venue in the moment at least won't be too
13:32
Speaker 3: big for him. Yeah, I think that is a I
13:34
Speaker 3: think that is a big deal. I mean, if you
13:37
Speaker 3: can ever if something happens to a starter, and you
13:41
Speaker 3: can ever insert experience there, that's a premium for any team,
13:47
Speaker 3: especially in this game one. We've talked about safety being
13:49
Speaker 3: so important, so to be able to rely on him.
13:51
Speaker 3: But I would expect that it's going to be a
13:54
Speaker 3: rotation of guys. I mean, there's been so many guys
13:56
Speaker 3: rotating in during training camp. I would expect you'd see
14:01
Speaker 3: multiple guys just rotating in and out in that first half. Yeah,
14:05
Speaker 3: and look it's one half, it's two quarters. I know
14:08
Speaker 3: a like can happen, but first game of the season,
14:11
Speaker 3: there's going to be a lot of energy out there.
14:13
Speaker 3: I would expect that. I would expect that a big rotation,
14:18
Speaker 3: but had to have Gilbert and that experience is for
14:21
Speaker 3: this type of short period of time for first and
14:23
Speaker 3: a second quarter, I believe is a is a big
14:26
Speaker 3: asset for us. I mean it's you never want to
14:28
Speaker 3: have a guy that you're relying on being a starter
14:30
Speaker 3: and have had him in the start of rotation for
14:32
Speaker 3: so long at the last minute have the rug pulled
14:35
Speaker 3: from under you. But to be able to just say,
14:36
Speaker 3: all right, hey, experience going there. The moment's not too
14:40
Speaker 3: big for him. We know he's played in big time stadiums.
14:43
Speaker 3: We know the lights aren't going to be too bright,
14:44
Speaker 3: so it's good. And obviously they wanted to upgrade from
14:47
Speaker 3: a talent level, that's fine, But like experience to me
14:52
Speaker 3: in that situation, especially for it a short short amount
14:55
Speaker 3: of time in the game, is definitely the way you go.
15:00
Speaker 2: And I know that Gilbert's been working at your favorite position, star.
15:06
Speaker 3: There, but you think they'll create a new position now.
15:10
Speaker 2: No, because Alabama took all the names of all the
15:12
Speaker 2: positions with Wolf and the other ones that they had.
15:16
Speaker 2: But this is somebody who can very easily slid back
15:19
Speaker 2: to safety.
15:20
Speaker 3: And again it might not be him.
15:21
Speaker 2: I'm just I'm trying to think of Okay, here's the situation.
15:24
Speaker 2: All right, You're going into a hostile environment. You've got
15:31
Speaker 2: somebody that has been through the fire before. You also
15:35
Speaker 2: have to worry about at least I do about sudden change.
15:38
Speaker 2: I'm talking about it on the field all the time.
15:40
Speaker 3: It happens off the field as well.
15:42
Speaker 2: Right, you find out on Thursday that you're starting safety
15:46
Speaker 2: not going to be available in the first half, Right,
15:49
Speaker 2: which player do you think can handle that the best
15:51
Speaker 2: when you call him into your office. Is it a
15:54
Speaker 2: rich air freshman? Is it a senior who's been through it?
15:59
Speaker 3: Right?
16:00
Speaker 2: Because like that situation to me, If I'm a senior
16:03
Speaker 2: and you're like, hey, Bud, yeah, aj.
16:06
Speaker 3: He's out for the first half, you're in, I'm like,
16:07
Speaker 3: all right, coolest, go Yeah.
16:08
Speaker 2: Now, if I'm a freshman and they tell me that
16:11
Speaker 2: I got the night sweats a little bit, got.
16:12
Speaker 3: The night sweats, got the butterflies, you start panicking a
16:15
Speaker 3: little bit. You start thinking about the game plan, Like
16:18
Speaker 3: you just said that again, And like the more you
16:21
Speaker 3: say it to me, and the more you say it
16:23
Speaker 3: out loud, the more it sinks. In How the Thursday
16:27
Speaker 3: before the opening game of the season you find out
16:30
Speaker 3: one of your starters is suspended for something that happened
16:34
Speaker 3: last November. Yeah, the more you say it, the more
16:39
Speaker 3: ridiculous this sounds to me, And the more it's like
16:41
Speaker 3: kind of making me mad, Like this is complete. Somebody
16:45
Speaker 3: dropped the ball somewhere. Either Houston held the information, the
16:50
Speaker 3: kid held the information, or the NCAA just did not
16:54
Speaker 3: make a decision or ruling or didn't even think about
16:58
Speaker 3: it until they got it this week. This it's yeah,
17:05
Speaker 3: and the more the more you say it, the more
17:07
Speaker 3: like ridiculous the.
17:08
Speaker 2: Stories and it's gonna look, there was people on I
17:10
Speaker 2: mentioned Clemson fans all last night. I didn't even tweet
17:13
Speaker 2: about it, and they're still already tagging me like rules
17:16
Speaker 2: are rules? Okay, right, nerd, I'm not. This isn't even
17:19
Speaker 2: arguing rules or rules. I just think it's dumb. If
17:24
Speaker 2: it was a Clemson player, I want to Clemson be
17:26
Speaker 2: able to be available if something happened in November that
17:30
Speaker 2: was like on the field because in the heat of
17:33
Speaker 2: you know, football game, you know, heaven forbid, we got
17:37
Speaker 2: into a little fisticuffs is what you like to call it.
17:40
Speaker 3: Right, yeah? Fisticuffs? Yeah right, yeah.
17:42
Speaker 2: You see of all the things, of all the things,
17:45
Speaker 2: like you go into an n cua A parking lot
17:48
Speaker 2: now and you know, it looks like you're going to
17:51
Speaker 2: a car show because there's so many incredible vehicles in there,
17:55
Speaker 2: and like, we're worried about this and this, this is
17:58
Speaker 2: what's going to keep you off the field.
18:00
Speaker 3: Rules you ever rolled through the stops on Bud We're
18:03
Speaker 3: going forty six at a forty five, they'll be a hypocrite.
18:08
Speaker 3: So yeah, look for LSU fans, happen last last November. Yes,
18:12
Speaker 3: for LSU fans.
18:13
Speaker 2: Obviously, I'm not gonna sit here and tell you that
18:15
Speaker 2: this is going to be a good thing for LSU.
18:17
Speaker 2: Safety's the most important position in this game, and your
18:22
Speaker 2: best safety potentially is out for thirty minutes of the game.
18:27
Speaker 2: I will say this. I will say that the Gilbert
18:29
Speaker 2: portion of it, you are very fortunate to have somebody
18:33
Speaker 2: like that ready to go. Look, he's had some good times,
18:38
Speaker 2: had some bad times in LSU uniform. I will say,
18:41
Speaker 2: he's playing injured most all of last year. Let's hope
18:45
Speaker 2: that there's a better version that we're going to get
18:47
Speaker 2: in the first half against Clemson. You could be in
18:51
Speaker 2: a situation where you have somebody never been you know,
18:55
Speaker 2: red shirted maybe last year, never really been in a
18:57
Speaker 2: game like this on the road. So for a really
19:01
Speaker 2: bad situation, you at least have something that I think
19:04
Speaker 2: can help ease some of the nervousness and the stress
19:08
Speaker 2: if you didn't have a veteran player ready to go.
19:11
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it is intention but I mean it's
19:13
Speaker 3: still it's not a great situation to have a guy
19:18
Speaker 3: like that out at such a key position to me
19:21
Speaker 3: in my opinion for this game plan. So, I mean,
19:23
Speaker 3: we're not going to sugarcoat it. It's not great for
19:25
Speaker 3: the first half, but look, it's one half. H You
19:27
Speaker 3: got a guy with experience jumping in there, and yeah,
19:31
Speaker 3: he's gonna come in hell is gonna come in the
19:33
Speaker 3: second half of Fresh Legs dominate. All right, we.

Speaker 2: They better. Nothing works. Nope, didn't hear nothing there. It's
22:58
Speaker 2: got to be proud it up. Which one is this
22:59
Speaker 2: the last one?
23:00
Speaker 3: Boat?
23:00
Speaker 2: Okay, that's what That's how it was for me trying
23:03
Speaker 2: to touch it. Okay, we're in some real trouble here,
23:09
Speaker 2: all right, we got one, but yeah one, all right,
23:12
Speaker 2: let's go for your.
23:16
Speaker 3: Perfect there we go. Love that.
23:18
Speaker 2: Last night we had some college football. Uh, Boise State
23:22
Speaker 2: took it right on the chin. Yeah, Florida said, welcome
23:26
Speaker 2: to the heat and humidity, Boisey. We're gonna treat you
23:29
Speaker 2: to a nice thirty four to seven whooping.
23:33
Speaker 3: Yeah. See, I watched the I watched the beginning of this.
23:37
Speaker 3: Then of course we went to the jumbal aysle last
23:39
Speaker 3: night and it was actually pretty close. But then I
23:45
Speaker 3: checked the scores and I'm like, oh my god, these
23:48
Speaker 3: guys really took it to him. But yes, you can
23:51
Speaker 3: just imagine like they kept it pretty close for a
23:52
Speaker 3: little bit. You can just imagine like you're you live
23:55
Speaker 3: in Boise, Idaho, near the mountains, not a touch of
24:00
Speaker 3: humidity out there. They've probably been doing training camp in
24:02
Speaker 3: seventy four. It was hot probably one day and got
24:04
Speaker 3: to eighty and they come down to Florida and they
24:11
Speaker 3: get hit right in the face when they walk off
24:13
Speaker 3: the airplane. As soon as they walk off the airplane,
24:14
Speaker 3: you kind of know, like in the back of your mind,
24:16
Speaker 3: you can be tough all you want, but you know,
24:18
Speaker 3: in the back of your mind when you hit that
24:20
Speaker 3: heat for the first time, that just isn't good. Oh,
24:24
Speaker 3: this is different, this is this is different. I don't
24:26
Speaker 3: know if my body can react to this the same
24:28
Speaker 3: as it did up in the mountains. And I think
24:32
Speaker 3: you probably saw a little proof of that. But maybe no.
24:34
Speaker 2: Twenty four to nothing in the second half. Decent, decent
24:39
Speaker 2: either one of those seems hydrated.
24:43
Speaker 3: Uh oh I after that, you know in the past
24:49
Speaker 3: Boise State has been hydrated. I'd have to look on
24:52
Speaker 3: the sheet for this year. I don't know if they
24:55
Speaker 3: are this year. You know what can't work miracles sometimes
25:02
Speaker 3: that's true, that's very true.
25:04
Speaker 2: Not the only game, but certainly Boise State, twenty fifth
25:07
Speaker 2: in the country, made the playoffs last year. They lost
25:11
Speaker 2: Ashon genty. A lot of people thought they'd be okay. Well,
25:14
Speaker 2: South Florida had other plans and South Florida and Alex
25:18
Speaker 2: Golish is good coach, and that foundation is completely different.
25:21
Speaker 2: Now they get the victory thirty four to seven Rutgers
25:25
Speaker 2: over Ohio thirty four thirty one. He had NC State
25:30
Speaker 2: East Carolina actually end up being a really good game
25:32
Speaker 2: at twenty four to seventeen n C State UCF the
25:36
Speaker 2: fighting Scott Frost take on Jacksonville State. That game ended
25:39
Speaker 2: seventeen to ten. You had Missouri all over Central Arkansas
25:45
Speaker 2: sixty one to six to Bribula coming over from Penn
25:50
Speaker 2: State twenty three of twenty eight, two hundred and eighty
25:53
Speaker 2: three yards and two scores.
25:55
Speaker 3: Certainly looks like he is QB one. I know that they.
25:58
Speaker 2: Played multi or you know we're gonna play multiple quarterbacks.
26:01
Speaker 3: And it was gonna be a situation.
26:02
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no, Bro Pubulus said, I'm QB one.
26:06
Speaker 2: Here he had ten rushes for sixty five yards and
26:08
Speaker 2: added two more scores on the ground. That was the
26:11
Speaker 2: only SEC team in action. Again, Missouri certainly gets done
26:15
Speaker 2: sixty one to.
26:18
Speaker 3: Six.
26:21
Speaker 2: Chris still feeling pretty good about You know, my pick
26:23
Speaker 2: is them being the dark horse. Now, I mean, I
26:25
Speaker 2: know it's Central Arkansas, but still sixty one to six.
26:28
Speaker 3: Do you feel good about that one? I did finding
26:30
Speaker 3: yourself on the back for picking that game. No, I
26:32
Speaker 3: didn't pick the game.
26:33
Speaker 2: I'm saying Missouri like even a Mott Hardy who they
26:35
Speaker 2: got over from Louisiana. Monroe one of the biggest running
26:39
Speaker 2: backs in the transfer portal. He goes ten carries one
26:41
Speaker 2: hundred yards in a score. So like the guys they
26:43
Speaker 2: brought over, match with the guys they already had. I'm
26:46
Speaker 2: just saying, with their schedule, don't look. Don't be surprised
26:50
Speaker 2: if you look up and Missouri's got double digit wins
26:53
Speaker 2: for the third straight year. Not real gritty of you
26:56
Speaker 2: to sit here and seven thirty on Friday before the
27:00
Speaker 2: first LSU game be celebrating the Missouri victory over Central Arkansas.
27:05
Speaker 2: Good give him some love to Conway, Arkansas, where it's
27:09
Speaker 2: a yup.
27:10
Speaker 3: Then we had the night game last night, Nebraska Cincinnati
27:15
Speaker 3: in the Arrowhead Stadium. They kept showing h say we
27:18
Speaker 3: had like Roola was playing quarterback for Nebraska. But then
27:20
Speaker 3: they kept showing him in the stands in the in
27:22
Speaker 3: the box suites watching the game. I was like, what's
27:25
Speaker 3: happening right here? Yeah, he looks exactly like Mahomes. I
27:29
Speaker 3: don't care what you say. Mahomes was in the Mahomes
27:32
Speaker 3: in the crowd watching the game. And Nebraska comes out
27:35
Speaker 3: with that one. They went twenty to seventeen. A boring game.
27:39
Speaker 3: It was kind of boring, but it was.
27:40
Speaker 2: A I'm sitting there and we're watching the games last
27:43
Speaker 2: night once we got home from the jamboree, and I'm trying.
27:47
Speaker 2: I'm like flick flicking back and forth, and I'm like,
27:50
Speaker 2: give me, give me something. And we're watching Nebraska Cincinnati
27:53
Speaker 2: and we're going to Miami of Ohio and Wisconsin because
27:56
Speaker 2: that game was close for a long time too, and
27:58
Speaker 2: same color schemes, the just and O Katie's like, I'm
28:01
Speaker 2: going to bed, I go watch you guys. I'm not
28:03
Speaker 2: staying up to watch mediocre football.
28:07
Speaker 3: That's fair fair enough, that's pretty fair. That is fair enough.
28:10
Speaker 3: So it's got to probably be like SEC well, that's
28:13
Speaker 3: a good match.
28:14
Speaker 2: I mean, Nebraska was a lot of people, Oh, look
28:16
Speaker 2: out for this team in the Big Ten, and that's
28:18
Speaker 2: one game.
28:18
Speaker 3: And you know, Cincinnati, I don't. I don't think it's
28:21
Speaker 3: going to be very good. They weren't a year ago.
28:22
Speaker 3: They haven't been ever since that run that they had.
28:26
Speaker 2: And you know, Dylan Yolo looked okay, I mean thirty
28:30
Speaker 2: three or forty two two forty three two touchdowns, But
28:34
Speaker 2: I just is there anybody dynamic on the field.
28:37
Speaker 3: That you would worry about. It was just like, I
28:43
Speaker 3: don't know, no idea. I was watching the game. I
28:46
Speaker 3: was kind of like you because we got home from
28:48
Speaker 3: from watching the high school football and we had it
28:50
Speaker 3: on the television. We're putting the kids in bad But
28:53
Speaker 3: I kept trying to watch it in the same way
28:54
Speaker 3: as you. You and Katie were like I was trying
28:56
Speaker 3: to watch it. I was like, man, this is this
28:58
Speaker 3: is good. I'm gonna keep it on. It's certainly on,
29:01
Speaker 3: but I'm also gonna be doing some of my nightly chores,
29:05
Speaker 3: gonna be putting the kids to bed. They're doing some
29:08
Speaker 3: some responding to some emails things like this. I wasn't
29:10
Speaker 3: like extremely locked in, So uh, don't get me to
29:13
Speaker 3: start reciting all the playmakers from our team. No, no,
29:16
Speaker 3: if you, if you could, I would be.
29:19
Speaker 2: Very impressed because playmakers there was not and Nebraska again
29:23
Speaker 2: very trendy pick because of their schedule who they had
29:26
Speaker 2: coming back. But I did not see it last night,
29:28
Speaker 2: but credit to them, they were victorious again twenty to seventeen.
29:34
Speaker 2: I do want to throw it to our guy Tatae
29:36
Speaker 2: back in studio because there is some LSU recruiting news
29:43
Speaker 2: Tristan Keys flips from LSU to Tennessee. Now, it's not
29:48
Speaker 2: a big surprise, Flynn. I think even you'll remember we
29:52
Speaker 2: played the video on his official visit when he went
29:54
Speaker 2: to Tennessee. He's going down you know, the runway there
29:58
Speaker 2: and he's showing off his watch and they I had
30:00
Speaker 2: a whole crowd there and it was like, wait a minute,
30:02
Speaker 2: aren't you committed to somebody else? Well, turns out he
30:06
Speaker 2: loved Tennessee there, and we've got a great story up
30:08
Speaker 2: on Louisiana Sports dot.
30:09
Speaker 3: Net right now.
30:10
Speaker 2: Kind of logging it all, but I'll throw it back
30:12
Speaker 2: to Studio Tata. Probably not too surprised at this happened.
30:17
Speaker 5: No, not a surprise at all. Like, I don't even
30:19
Speaker 5: care that it's Tennessee. I know, we saw the little
30:22
Speaker 5: cute red carpet that they did when he was on
30:24
Speaker 5: his recruiting trip. I kind of always knew this was
30:27
Speaker 5: gonna happen. I just didn't know what school it was
30:29
Speaker 5: gonna be. I mean, he continued to take trip after
30:32
Speaker 5: trip after trip. It was like you proposed to someone
30:35
Speaker 5: and then right after you request that you have an
30:37
Speaker 5: open marriage. Like that's what Tristan Keys looked like this
30:40
Speaker 5: entire recruiting process. I'm not surprised in the least like this,
30:43
Speaker 5: this was always going to happen.
30:48
Speaker 3: You trying to say he had pineapples on his front.
30:49
Speaker 5: Porch, Yeah, absolutely, big time, multiple pineapples.
30:56
Speaker 3: Outside.
30:57
Speaker 6: Allan's right, we're getting too far in the week because
31:01
Speaker 6: I don't know that, you know, I don't even know
31:03
Speaker 6: what that upside down part means the recruiting, and it's
31:08
Speaker 6: a big player.
31:08
Speaker 2: Not going to sit here and act like it's not.
31:10
Speaker 2: It's number seven overall player in the country, plays receiver, playmaker.
31:15
Speaker 2: It's going to you know, if he signs with Tennessee,
31:17
Speaker 2: signs with Tennessee, we'll see. We'll see if that ends
31:19
Speaker 2: up being the case in December. I'm not going to
31:23
Speaker 2: say that he's not a great player, because he does
31:24
Speaker 2: look like he is. But I'll say this, it's high school.
31:28
Speaker 2: It's a high school recruit, and change your mind. Who
31:31
Speaker 2: knows where you get in December. And also, if there's
31:33
Speaker 2: one position that I don't really ever, really worry about
31:37
Speaker 2: for LSU, it's the receiver position. The I would say
31:43
Speaker 2: for the best six receivers in the NFL right now
31:46
Speaker 2: are from LSU and they're all from Louisiana. So again,
31:49
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna act like he's not a good player.
31:50
Speaker 2: Would you want him on your squad? Yeah, you don't
31:52
Speaker 2: want him his number seven overall player, But the position
31:55
Speaker 2: that he plays, the talent that you've had at that position.
32:00
Speaker 2: If it was, honestly, if it was you know, an
32:03
Speaker 2: interior defensive lineman, if it was a star left tackle
32:09
Speaker 2: right now, if it was a position a star, you know,
32:13
Speaker 2: not a star, don't get mad a star safety, then
32:16
Speaker 2: maybe it's a different conversation, but tasting exactly. But a
32:21
Speaker 2: receiver again, that's one position that I'm always going to trust.
32:24
Speaker 2: LSU has multiple guys in stay, guys that are going
32:28
Speaker 2: to be NFL players.
32:29
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a guy you like to have, of course,
32:31
Speaker 3: But just like you lay out, it's something we probably
32:35
Speaker 3: don't need to be too worried about because we can
32:37
Speaker 3: always always recruit the position, always have good players right
32:40
Speaker 3: here in the state. There was one thing I was
32:43
Speaker 3: worried about. And I'm really glad to hear his voice. Taylor.
32:45
Speaker 3: I'm really glad you're here today. I'm glad you made
32:49
Speaker 3: it to work. You picked your head up off that
32:50

33:07
Speaker 3: he's alive, he's well.

33:56
Speaker 2: you've had in mind.
33:58
Speaker 3: Russell Pools dot Com. Yeah, Normally, when you start with
34:00
Speaker 3: the pool process, you have to go hire a designer,
34:03
Speaker 3: you have to go hire a landscape architect, and you
34:05
Speaker 3: got to take those plans and try to try to
34:07
Speaker 3: speak and talk to the pool company and get it
34:09
Speaker 3: all worked out. Not with Russell Pools. They have two
34:11
Speaker 3: landscape architects right there on staff. That is different than

35:18

35:22
Speaker 2: We will be here throughout the totality of the show.
35:25
Speaker 2: So come hang out, come say what's up to us?
35:27
Speaker 2: Fired up to be here for football Fridays, We're fired up.
35:31
Speaker 3: We're excited.
35:32
Speaker 2: You're probably excited because you've got football. You watched it
35:36
Speaker 2: last night, You're gonna watch it tonight. You're certainly gonna
35:38
Speaker 2: watch it all day tomorrow, gonna watch the Tigers, the
35:41
Speaker 2: good Tigers take care of the.
35:42
Speaker 3: Other Tigers tomorrow night.
35:44
Speaker 2: But I'm not sure that anything Matthew is going to
35:48
Speaker 2: get our boy, Taylor shark fired up.
35:51
Speaker 3: He got some he got some news.
35:53
Speaker 2: And I think you had some inside information with how
35:56
Speaker 2: strongly you were saying that.
35:57
Speaker 3: Yeah, somebody in the chat saying that I probably need
35:59
Speaker 3: to be total. That would be chaining around right now.
36:03
Speaker 3: We don't have it. Hear a rouses, but I would be, uh, because, yeah,
36:08
Speaker 3: Taylor's walking around. You ever seen that the meme of
36:12
Speaker 3: Pablo Escobar from the show where you're just kind of
36:14
Speaker 3: like sitting on a swing, like looking into space, kind
36:17
Speaker 3: of like just super depressed today And like that I
36:20
Speaker 3: said before going to break, I was just excited to
36:22
Speaker 3: hear his voice. I didn't know if I'd ever hear
36:24
Speaker 3: it again. It was one of those big time situations.
36:27
Speaker 3: So yesterday in an absolute mammoth blockbustered deal on the
36:35
Speaker 3: last moment. Right, we're a week before NFL football seasons,
36:40
Speaker 3: a mammoth trade comes down, and we had been seeing
36:42
Speaker 3: this coming. It was the Green Bay Packers had had
36:48
Speaker 3: something in their their sights and they offered a king's ransom.
36:53
Speaker 3: Micah Parsons gets traded from the Dallas Cowboys to the
36:55
Speaker 3: Green Bay Packers and absolute mammoth of a deal. Of course,
36:59
Speaker 3: that the Micah Parsons Jerry Jones stand off. Everybody had
37:03
Speaker 3: been talking about it. It would have been the lead
37:05
Speaker 3: of every sports show, you know, besides local sports shows.
37:08
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, Jerry was Jerry wasn't fighting with Micah Parsons.
37:12
Speaker 2: He was fighting with Michael Parsons, as he kept saying,
37:17
Speaker 2: So maybe he thought he was trading Michael Parsons and
37:20
Speaker 2: not Mike Oh.
37:20
Speaker 3: And it's crazy because this is kind of how he's done,
37:23
Speaker 3: always done business and it's never gotten to this point.
37:26
Speaker 3: I mean, he did it with Dak Prescott a couple
37:27
Speaker 3: of years ago. He even franchised tag Dak Prescott and
37:31
Speaker 3: he signed him. I think they signed their contract the
37:33
Speaker 3: day of the first game of the season. So he's
37:35
Speaker 3: always come down and it's always kind of been the
37:37
Speaker 3: knock on him and he waits. He waits so long,
37:39
Speaker 3: he waits so long, waits so long, and then he
37:41
Speaker 3: ends up paying more. But he it always seems to
37:44
Speaker 3: work out well. This one just felt different leading up
37:47
Speaker 3: to it. It felt like there was some actual bad blood.
37:50
Speaker 3: It seemed like Micah Parsons was not going to back
37:53
Speaker 3: down and Jerry Jones certainly wasn't going to back down.
37:55
Speaker 3: So when a rock needs a hard place, it just
38:00
Speaker 3: it was the Green Bay Packers. They offered him two
38:04
Speaker 3: first rounds picks. Yeah, defensive tackle, a good defensive tackle,
38:08
Speaker 3: good defensive tackle, but you're gonna you're getting the best
38:11
Speaker 3: defensive player in the National Football League and a trade
38:16
Speaker 3: reminiscent when they traded for Reggie White back in the
38:21
Speaker 3: early nineties with the Green Bay Packers. So they worked
38:25
Speaker 3: out pretty good for them. So on a team that's
38:28
Speaker 3: loaded with talent and young towns and Reggie White like
38:32
Speaker 3: the first free agent and the hell they got, Yeah,
38:34
Speaker 3: he was like the he was the kind of the
38:37
Speaker 3: poster child of free agency hitting the NFL that had
38:41
Speaker 3: been collectively bargained and all that. It was like the
38:43
Speaker 3: change with the Reggie right signing to Green Bay kind
38:45
Speaker 3: of changed the landscape of NFL contracts in the NFL
38:49
Speaker 3: business in total. So that was in the early nineties,
38:53
Speaker 3: of course, and they went on a run. They won
38:54
Speaker 3: a super Bowl in ninety six, I believe was in
38:57
Speaker 3: another super Bowl in ninety seven. And yeah, so just
39:02
Speaker 3: a huge deal, blogbuster deal, and all the Cowboys fans
39:05
Speaker 3: have to be just absolutely in shambles today. Well let's
39:09
Speaker 3: hear from our favorite one.
39:11
Speaker 2: We'll throw it to our favorite at Cowboys Faan, mister
39:13
Speaker 2: Taylor Sharp your reaction.
39:15
Speaker 7: Sir, disappointed, but not surprised.
39:18
Speaker 5: I mean, we talked about this on Tuesday on the
39:21
Speaker 5: show and I was like, Michael's probably not going to
39:23
Speaker 5: play another snap for the Dallas Cowboys.
39:25
Speaker 7: I didn't think it was going to be the Packers.
39:27
Speaker 5: I hate that it's the Packers because my coworker, Matt
39:30
Speaker 5: Flynn has been pushing it for the past week and
39:32
Speaker 5: a half.
39:32
Speaker 7: So that's a little unfortunate.
39:34
Speaker 5: But you know, I was getting text messages around four
39:37
Speaker 5: four thirty. I think Jordan was actually the first one
39:40
Speaker 5: to text me, and all he said was my condolences.
39:43
Speaker 7: I was like, all right, let me take out a ESPN.
39:45
Speaker 7: Here we go.
39:45
Speaker 5: Who'd he go to? And then I see the green
39:48
Speaker 5: Bay Packers. Look, it's it's typical Jerry Jones single handedly
39:52
Speaker 5: ruining a franchise.
39:53
Speaker 7: He's done it for the last thirty years.
39:55
Speaker 5: He had the audacity yesterday to say, well, we made
39:58
Speaker 5: this trade because we needed to stop the run.
40:01
Speaker 3: Yeah.
40:01
Speaker 5: Well, when you look at pass rush win rate, Michael
40:04
Speaker 5: Parsons was top five. Nobody else on the Dallas Cowboys
40:07
Speaker 5: was top twenty five. So congrats, Jerry. You can't stop
40:10
Speaker 5: the run now, you can't rush the passer either. You
40:12
Speaker 5: got two first round picks back woo, Who who cares?
40:15
Speaker 5: I mean, you got Kenny Clark. He's fine, He's a
40:18
Speaker 5: solid piece. He's not Micah Parsons. Once again, he screwed
40:21
Speaker 5: this up. But the good news is, guys, you give
40:23
Speaker 5: Jake Ferguson fifty two million dollars.
40:28
Speaker 3: Oh well, that's that's positive. It's a good tight him. Taylor.
40:34
Speaker 3: Close your ears real quick on this one. New Green
40:37
Speaker 3: Bay Packers linebacker Micah Parsons is one of two players
40:40
Speaker 3: in the NFL history to have at least twelve sacks
40:43
Speaker 3: in each of his first four seasons of professional football.
40:48
Speaker 3: It's Green Bay Packer linebacker Micah Parsons and Reggie white.
40:52
Speaker 3: Those are two of them. The two. That's the end
40:54
Speaker 3: of the list right there. You're not going to find
40:57
Speaker 3: anybody else in that list. Yep so New Green Bay
41:02
