  Speaker 4: Man, I'm feeling great. Yeah, it's all I know. That's it.
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: That's the only thing I know. Well, no, dude, I'm
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: so fired up.
• 1:57
  Speaker 5: I feel like every time we get to media Day
• 1:59
  Speaker 5: is the SEC media Day.
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: We're kind of getting to the fourth.
• 2:03
  Speaker 5: Quarter of this so called off season. But yeah, man,
• 2:08
  Speaker 5: a lot going on, a lot to get to and yeah,
• 2:11
  Speaker 5: I hate I miss the has the Big twelve Monster Energy,
• 2:15
  Speaker 5: you know, Triple A USA dot Com Media Day.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: They're like a damn NASCAR driver in Victory Lane mentioning
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: their sponsors at media Day like.
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: A dinner at Ricky Bobby's.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: I love it, man, I love it all right, So
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: let's let's start right at the top with the SEC.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: I was watching a lot of the coverage yesterday on
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: the SEC network and they're already breaking it down and
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: maybe you think this isn't right, but they they were
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: breaking down a Georgia Texas battle for the title. Do
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: you think that's what it comes down to, or do
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: you want to throw somebody else into the mix.
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: You know, you're never.
• 2:53
  Speaker 5: Crazy to put Georgia in Texas obviously in the championship game.
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: It seems like Alabama's got to be in there somewhere too. So, man,
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: I tell you, we did our top SEC offenses yesterday.
• 3:04
  Speaker 5: We're doing defenses today and a player ranking and going
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: to get to predictions. Man, it seems about as wide
• 3:11
  Speaker 5: open and it's not because you know, I think the
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: SEC may be better than it's ever been from top
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: to bottom. But I do think there's more parody at
• 3:20
  Speaker 5: the top than there's been in a long time. I mean,
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: we remember when Nick Saban monopolized the sport, and then
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: Kirby Smart did it for a couple of seasons right
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: after that, and then nil hits. So I don't think
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: you'd be crazy to throw Texas, to throw Georgia, to
• 3:36
  Speaker 5: throw Oklahoma to throw a and m to throw LSU,
• 3:40
  Speaker 5: to throw old myths.
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: I mean, I can keep going, dude, you look at Bama.
• 3:43
  Speaker 5: I mean, let's be honest, it's uh, there's a lot
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: more Victoria's Secret models that's the top of the runway
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: list of the SEC than there used to be, even
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: though she used to be the battest on the planet.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: That's fun though. If it's that freaking wide open, that's
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: gonna be a fun season.
• 3:58
  Speaker 6: Ask you about the teams that weren't Georgia in Texas
• 4:01
  Speaker 6: and you named them all off there, but say, Ole,
• 4:03
  Speaker 6: miss Oklahoma, A and m Bama. Which of those four
• 4:08
  Speaker 6: and maybe I'll ask you if you want to, but
• 4:10
  Speaker 6: of those four or five, which one do you actually
• 4:13
  Speaker 6: like the most entering the season?
• 4:17
  Speaker 7: Man?
• 4:18
  Speaker 8: I mean as far as as picking out of that group,
• 4:22
  Speaker 8: who was you, you know, throw me in a in
• 4:24
  Speaker 8: a in a room with a hood on and have
• 4:26
  Speaker 8: people talking around me, who would I pick?
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna think I'm a surprise for people here. I'm
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: gonna go to Oklahoma. I'm just telling you, man, I
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: look at the recipe.
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: You know, obviously they lost our Mason Thomas the tumble
• 4:40
  Speaker 5: pieces on defense, but they've added on defense. There's a
• 4:43
  Speaker 5: lot of continuity. They were the number one defense in
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: the SEC and points per game last year. Venables, that's
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: his baby, And I'm just telling you offensively, there's just
• 4:53
  Speaker 5: no way that Bill Beetenbaum, their offensive line.
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: Coach, who's a legend in the game.
• 4:58
  Speaker 5: Puts another product out there looks the way that it looked.
• 5:03
  Speaker 5: John Mattier had to be the whole team. I'm not
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: saying he's perfect, nobody is. But if Oklahoma can have
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: a semblance of a run game, I don't know, Man,
• 5:12
  Speaker 5: de Spidey senses are tingling for the guys in Norman,
• 5:15
  Speaker 5: and it has nothing to do with baseball doing what
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: they did either.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: How about that, man, Yeah, that is a and that's
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: a tough, tough schedule, but they are an intriguing team.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: You got to feel like Mateer he said it yesterday,
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: not making excuses, but he had to kind of change
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: the way he threw the ball with that injury. You
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: get the feeling you're going to get a much better
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: version of him. Jake, I want to talk about Lane
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: Kiffin at LSU because that might be the sexiest storyline
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: of them all, the controversial move. You know that the
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: whole free world outside Louisiana is going to be rooting
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: against him. What do you expect for year one for
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: Lane Kiffin and company?
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: Well, look, you know, I give Lane credit uh for
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: going to a place that the pressure is at an
• 6:04
  Speaker 5: all time high.
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: You know, he could have stayed at Old miss.
• 6:08
  Speaker 5: And look, who knows what what would have gone down
• 6:10
  Speaker 5: in Old Missip to stayed there and had a bunch
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: of success and you know, become my king of the castle,
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: King of the castle. U. But he just he didn't
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: want to just take over du log. He wanted to
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: take over the whole thing. Uh yeah, that's a that's
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: a Shrek reference. My daughter won't stop watching its eighteen
• 6:26
  Speaker 5: months old.
• 6:26
  Speaker 6: So nice, But I was thinking that was Game of
• 6:29
  Speaker 6: Thrones and I got confused.
• 6:31
  Speaker 5: Correct Now, well, in a way, it's the same thing.
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: You know, to me, the pressure is at an all time.
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: High because you're paying this guys and oodles.
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: Of oodles of money. You spent forty million dollars on a.
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: Roster, and the expectation, I think anything less than a
• 6:47
  Speaker 5: playoff birsus a disappointment. But but you know, Layne wants
• 6:51
  Speaker 5: to smoke and I give him credit for that.
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: Believe it or not, he wants it.
• 6:55
  Speaker 6: Jake Shane Beemer, speaking today, what do you expect from
• 7:00
  Speaker 6: the game Cots and specifically what what Norse sellers will
• 7:04
  Speaker 6: this be? The guy the end of the season two
• 7:05
  Speaker 6: years ago, red hot or you know a guy that
• 7:09
  Speaker 6: was part of a really struggling team a year ago.
• 7:13
  Speaker 5: Well, I mean, if the offensive line doesn't get better,
• 7:16
  Speaker 5: and that's been the question I think for South Carolina
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: really the big weakness. I mean, Leonoris, guys, last year
• 7:23
  Speaker 5: you finished what one hundred and twenty first in rushing.
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: I mean last two seasons, Lenoris has ran from everybody
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: except the tops.
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: I mean, at some.
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: Point, South Carolina's you know, the offensive line, man, just
• 7:37
  Speaker 5: be good. You know, nobody's asking me to be a steamroller.
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: You got that dinosaur at quarterback, Nicholas Harbor, and look,
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: I think he's incredibly talented.
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: Demand's like Zoolander.
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: It's all the same.
• 7:50
  Speaker 7: Look.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: He can just run.
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: Deep and maybe a post every now and then. He's
• 7:54
  Speaker 5: got to be able to branch out that route.
• 7:57
  Speaker 7: Seat.
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: But South Carolina's got players, you know, it's it's the
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: offensive line. So if the offensive line is just good enough,
• 8:04
  Speaker 5: South Carolina I think has a chance to have a
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: pretty big season. I would be shocked if they knocked
• 8:09
  Speaker 5: off Georgia or somebody in the regular But it's just
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: hard for me to believe in and Kendall Browns was
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: a great hire like Kendall a lot. But if that
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: offensive line isn't fakes, it's not gonna work. I mean,
• 8:18
  Speaker 5: that's that's the engine of the car, that's the heart
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: of the body, that's the roots of the tree.
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: And they just haven't figured it out yet.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: They brought in brought in a ton of O line transfers,
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: but did they get the evail right?
• 8:30
  Speaker 7: You know?
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: Are they healthy?
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: But man, give Leonora Sellers some protection and help for
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: God's sakes. Okay, So arch Mania is happening all over again,
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: right like last year, arch Mania was upon us. He
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: gets off to the slow start, but then he kind
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: of gets it right and finishes strong. And now we're
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: to the point and my god, they've added into portal
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: to help him out. How do you feel like, is
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: he like, do you think he can make good and
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: be you know, the best or second bet like, one
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: of the top three quarterbacks in college football this year?
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: Can he pay all that hype off?
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: Well?
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: I mean, are we talking about just statistically.
• 9:12
  Speaker 5: Are we talking about him being one of the best
• 9:14
  Speaker 5: three quarterbacks in the country just kind of in general
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: in general? I think yeah, I think sometimes we get
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: lost in the stats a little bit. You know, there's
• 9:23
  Speaker 5: some really good quarterbacks that have really good run games
• 9:26
  Speaker 5: out there that can kind of hide the numbers. Yes,
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: I think Arts has that type of talent and ability.
• 9:33
  Speaker 5: You know, it's funny with Arts. To me, I can
• 9:34
  Speaker 5: see both sides of the coin. I mean, one, the
• 9:37
  Speaker 5: hype was just ridiculous, Like I don't care who you're
• 9:41
  Speaker 5: related to. I mean, he was kind of like Harry Potter.
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: You know, he didn't mean for it to be like this.
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: It just kind of was like this. Like you know,
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: I was just six months old.
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: In my crib when I beat Voldemort on accident kind
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: of things, So I don't you know, so part of
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: me kind of feels bad for him, But then I
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: realized how rich they are, and I'm like.
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: Ah, don't feel bad for you.
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: Like what nobody cries on a jet ski, like you've
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: got every advantage possible.
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: But yes, I think he can. And I think that's
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: a mixture of.
• 10:10
  Speaker 5: His ability, his experience now in start system, and obviously
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: the personnel that they've added around. But guys are going
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: to sound like a broken record.
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: But you guys know it.
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: I know it. God knows that I don't think Texas
• 10:23
  Speaker 5: is off.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: The line was great last year.
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: So this isn't This isn't basketball where one guy can
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: win a game, or baseball where a guy can go
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: out and throw a perfect game or hit for the cycle.
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: One guy can't win it.
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: If we don't have eleven out there moving as one organism,
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: we're dead.
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: I don't care what the logo says.
• 10:42
  Speaker 6: Jake, what do you think of Tennessee this year? And
• 10:45
  Speaker 6: what's your expectations for the balls? We have a lot
• 10:47
  Speaker 6: of balls fans at our audience.
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 10:50
  Speaker 5: Probably one of the hardest things I'm having to do
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: as I'm looking over everything once again is I don't
• 11:00
  Speaker 5: know why I don't have belief in Tennessee, but yet
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: I have some in Alabama. I mean, when you really
• 11:06
  Speaker 5: look at it, they both have a similar issue and
• 11:09
  Speaker 5: that it's a new starting quarterback. It's a quarterback battle.
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: Both guys are green, right, which means they're gonna make mistakes.
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: But I look at this Alabama team, I don't know
• 11:19
  Speaker 5: if they're gonna be able to run the ball. Couldn't
• 11:21
  Speaker 5: run the ball last year. Ty Simpson, I don't think
• 11:23
  Speaker 5: got enough credit for what he did for Alabama with
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: an absolutely abysmal run game which put them in third
• 11:30
  Speaker 5: and long so much and they just wizard of odds
• 11:33
  Speaker 5: their way out of it.
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: But look at Tennessee.
• 11:35
  Speaker 5: They've got a line I trust pretty bag them. Get
• 11:38
  Speaker 5: off his bunk, good running back room, good wide receiver room.
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: The defense, to me is the question.
• 11:43
  Speaker 5: I love Jim Knowles, his system takes a little time.
• 11:47
  Speaker 5: The personnel I think is good over there, it's not great.
• 11:51
  Speaker 5: So I look at the defensive side of the ball.
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: It's where I worry about Tennessee. But I would not
• 11:56
  Speaker 5: be shocked if they went seven and five. I wouldn't
• 11:59
  Speaker 5: be shocked if they.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: At nine and three.
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: So it's a pretty hard projection, to be honest.
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: No, it is, man, it's gonna it's it's uh.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: It's fun to just be and it's hard to project
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: in general with so many changes with these programs, But
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: that will not stop us from trying. Brother, you are
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: getting rave reviews on our text line, and I got
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: to be honest with you. They haven't said anything nice
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: about us in five years.
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: So like you, you are winning.
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: I love it. I love it with my grandparents.

• 13:05
  Speaker 1: of the stage. I wouldn't that be Vanderbilt? Then Tennessee
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: is real interesting. First of all, you know, they're very
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: hard to figure out in this whole thing. They are
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: there there, and you know there's a lot of balls
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: fans around here, and they're gonna stir it up soon eventually.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: On the text line, I know they will not definitely
• 13:21

• 13:24
  Speaker 1: running back the O line her Cublic talking about it yesterday.
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: Knowles.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: I love Knowles as a coordinator. The quarterback thing is interesting, though.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: I would love to see Faison Brandon get a chance
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: right away. He is the grimsly quarterback out of Greensboro
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: five star. He's a grimsly whorlie bone, one of my
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: favorite mascots in all of North Carolina sports. Okay, Eric Collins,
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: he's got a ton of talent, but I don't know
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: if he's ready to go right away.
• 13:49
  Speaker 6: You see why they were trying to get joe Yaguilar
• 13:51
  Speaker 6: back for one more year to try to get to
• 13:54
  Speaker 6: uh faise on Brandon until he had Yes, I would
• 13:58
  Speaker 6: have been a perfect bridge instead the the kid from
• 14:00
  Speaker 6: last year.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: It's a red shirt freshman. I forget his name.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: George McIntyre, Yeah McIntyre, right, Well here, man, you might
• 14:08

  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 14:14
  Speaker 6: You can't stay with the journalists. So I asked about
• 14:17
  Speaker 6: they are interesting.
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: How about the fact When I said, is it Georgia
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: and Texas for the title or is it more open
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: than that?
• 14:23
  Speaker 6: He went like eight deep with contenders. He did Tennessee.
• 14:27
  Speaker 6: They're big non conference game early. They played at Georgia
• 14:30
  Speaker 6: Tech this year. Yeah, that's interesting in week two. I
• 14:33
  Speaker 6: think it's right there near the top of the season.
• 14:35
  Speaker 6: They used to play way back in the day.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: I feel like like, I feel like that's an old
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: school matchup that used to that used to happen way
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: back in the day. But anyway, that's an interesting early
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: season game. Let's let's pay off the tea's bone. We're
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: gonna talk to tar Heel football coming up at nine
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: to twenty five here, so stay tuned. Finally, but I
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: do want to pay off the teas about the ESPN personalities,
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: and I don't know if there's any other news about this,
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: but it seems like there's going to be a bunch
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: more layoffs and kind of like a couple of years
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: ago when it was a lot of bigger names being
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: like go it's gonna be sounds like it's gonna be
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: on air people, And right now we know of two
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: this morning.
• 15:11
  Speaker 6: Karl Ravich apparently bone forty three years at ESPN. Damn
• 15:17
  Speaker 6: that long yep, oh Man nineteen ninety three. Geez, So he's.
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: Being laid off, and then you had the one that
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: got all kind of headlines yesterday. It was going to
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: be done today with other ones, but because the news
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: was kind of starting to leak out, the powers that
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: be at ESPN went in in the middle of NFL
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: Live during a break and told Ryan Clark he was
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: being laid off and he was being let go. And
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: Ryan Clark did not finish the show, so they had
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: to come back and do the show Mina Chimes and
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: Company like without Clark, who had just left and just
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: got fired in the middle of the show. The Athletic
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: was reporting bone that the reason they did that is
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: because they were afraid he was basically going to find
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: out in the middle of the show. They didn't want
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: that to happen, but it's a very clunky way to
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: do it that. The report also mentioned a reason for
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: him being let go is his verbal conduct through the years,
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: often towards coworkers, and they brought up the Peter Schrager
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: like when he insulted Peter Schreger one time because he
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: didn't play the game. Yeah, so that and he was
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: always so polarizing. We're already getting text of people that
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: are like, oh, guys wants to thank you, Yespan for
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: fire and Ryan Clark, he did listen, he did share
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: his opinions, and I wonder, Bone if that played a role.
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: You know, when you become divisive like that, are you
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: then do you make yourself a little more expendable? But
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: I thought in terms of his analysis of the game,
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: I thought he was really good. And I loved that
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: NFL Live crew with him and Spears and Mina and Rutledge,
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: Laura Rutlige.
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: I love that crew. Man.
• 16:47
  Speaker 6: I really believe when we come back. Andrew Jones tar

• 18:09
  Speaker 1: have a great gift here, Matt. There's a new book
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: out about the life of Sam Mills by Paul Domowitch,
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: one time NFL writer. He will join us on the
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: show on Monday, but the publishing company sent about what
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: ten twelve books for us, so everyone at the stage
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: gets a Sam Mills book here.
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: That's awesome.
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: The title is just give Me a Chance to Fail,
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: The Life of NFL Hall of Famer Hall of Fame
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: linebacker Sam Mills. And I think that's the famous quote
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: from him, like when he was I forget and I
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: guess I'm sure it's in the book Bony, but like I.
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: Forget who he used that with.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: But I think that was a famous quote when he
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: wanted a chance because of course everybody was counting them
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: out because of his size. He ends up in the
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: usfl initially, and I believe that's a quote from Sam
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: Mills directly.
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: Great quote.
• 19:02
  Speaker 5: Me.
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: You think you're telling me I'm gonna fail, Give me
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: a chance to fake speaking a chance, or maybe I
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: just won't speaking of a freaking Hall of famer, speaking
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: of a chance to fail.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: Fitty could be failing right now on a guest. He
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: did he miss yesterday?
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: Well, yeah, because he he thought, uh, it was Tuesday

  Speaker 1: all long. Yeah, anyway, we were good to go, Baby,
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: we're good to go. This is the guest is not
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: a woman. Fitty's good here, all right, he's god. He
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: could communicate, he could communicate with the male species. Fine,
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: it's the it's the other half we're worried about. Yeah,
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: we get sorry fit. Oh we're good, right, Fitty, We good.

• 19:54
  Speaker 1: Or Bryson de Shambeau at at Royal Birkdale, both very
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: bad looks. All right, let's talk some tar heel football.
• 20:02
  Speaker 5: Man.
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: Our next guest covers the Heels. If you're a Heels fan,
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: I am sure you are aware of his work. He's
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: got great insight and information on all things tar Heels.
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: He is Andrew Jones with Tar Heel twenty four to
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: seven dot com and he joins us here on the
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: Mac and Bone Show in Charlotte.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: Andrew, what's going on?
• 20:25
  Speaker 6: Man?
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: How you doing?
• 20:26
  Speaker 7: What's up? Guys doing all right? Getting ready to kickoff football?
• 20:29
  Speaker 7: About nine days? First practices in nine days, so nice.
• 20:35
  Speaker 7: And we'll get the first of four availabilities before the
• 20:38
  Speaker 7: season starts, so you know we're ready to the card shops.
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: There you go, baby, use the use your questions wisely,
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: all right? And those four availabilities, yeah, don't use them
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: all at once. On Belijack what okay? So Belichick had
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: some interesting things to say Friday at me at ACC
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: kickoff here in Charlotte, and the one thing that he
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: said in the AC Network interview and with y'all in
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: the media, was he feels very confidently their head of
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: last year just because of continuity, right, they've had carry over,
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: there's no spring transfer portal, he's had the quarterbacks actually there.
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: Do you expect, like, do you feel like that shows
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: at the start?
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: Can they I mean, they can't get off to a
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: worse start than last year. Do you do you think
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: they're ready to get off to a better start than
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: last season?
• 21:29
  Speaker 7: I would say that there is the difference between their
• 21:32
  Speaker 7: level of organization and the staff understanding what they have
• 21:36
  Speaker 7: and where they are, and the process in time couldn't
• 21:40
  Speaker 7: be more different than it was it is right now
• 21:42
  Speaker 7: from a year ago. So I've been pitching that for
• 21:45
  Speaker 7: a while because my conversations with the program started two
• 21:49
  Speaker 7: days after the NC State game, where somebody in the
• 21:52
  Speaker 7: program acknowledged to me that the staff realized during the
• 21:56
  Speaker 7: season that they didn't know everything that they thought they
• 21:59
  Speaker 7: knew college football, that there were enough differences that belichickings
• 22:04
  Speaker 7: and people in the program had to look in the
• 22:06
  Speaker 7: mirror and had to be honest with themselves about some things.
• 22:09
  Speaker 7: And I think that that's pretty significant because they don't
• 22:12
  Speaker 7: mind that getting out They don't mind a seventy four
• 22:16
  Speaker 7: year old with six Super Bowl rings having it get
• 22:18
  Speaker 7: out that he looked in the mirror and had to
• 22:20
  Speaker 7: recognize where he was going wrong and what he didn't understand.
• 22:24
  Speaker 7: And he kind of alluded to that a little bit
• 22:26
  Speaker 7: last week and a couple of times a few times
• 22:29
  Speaker 7: we've been around him since last season ended. I've gotten
• 22:32
  Speaker 7: this sense that he's giving us a little bit more
• 22:36
  Speaker 7: straight answers with some things. And he said that back
• 22:40
  Speaker 7: in the spring as well, about how, hey, look, they
• 22:42
  Speaker 7: had to figure some things out, they had to learn
• 22:44
  Speaker 7: some things. Then you throw on top of it the
• 22:46
  Speaker 7: continuity factor that you just brought up, and they are
• 22:49
  Speaker 7: way ahead of where they were this time of year ago.
• 22:51
  Speaker 7: But I will caution people that doesn't mean it's going
• 22:54
  Speaker 7: to translate to wins on the field. I think you'll
• 22:57
  Speaker 7: see a better product, a more polished product, and you'll
• 23:00
  Speaker 7: see them make better adjustments. You know, last year in
• 23:03
  Speaker 7: the TCU game, they started a true freshman at left tackle.
• 23:06
  Speaker 7: He played twenty four snaps that night and played like
• 23:08
  Speaker 7: fifteen the rest of the year. Demon June was their
• 23:11
  Speaker 7: seventh string running back that night. He ended up being
• 23:13
  Speaker 7: there starting running back, but within two weeks, so they
• 23:17
  Speaker 7: understand what they're looking at right now a lot more
• 23:20
  Speaker 7: they did a year ago.
• 23:21
  Speaker 6: And you're on paper, you're talking about maybe not translating
• 23:25
  Speaker 6: to the wins per se, but looking better.
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: The schedule's different.
• 23:29
  Speaker 6: How much more difficult is a schedule this year than
• 23:32
  Speaker 6: it was last year? At least on paper? Entering the season, well, on.
• 23:36
  Speaker 7: Paper, it was all we had to go by. Nobody
• 23:38
  Speaker 7: thought Virginia was going to be as good as it
• 23:40
  Speaker 7: was last year, or even Duke, so they the schedule
• 23:43
  Speaker 7: looked very manageable this time of year ago. It turned
• 23:46
  Speaker 7: out to be a little bit more difficult. Right now
• 23:49
  Speaker 7: it looks really difficult. There's a chance maybe it won't
• 23:51
  Speaker 7: end up that way. But if you just look ahead
• 23:55
  Speaker 7: at twelve games, a gosh, off the top of my head,
• 23:57
  Speaker 7: how many do you think they're going to win? Right
• 23:59
  Speaker 7: for sure? And you say one he studis the state,
• 24:03
  Speaker 7: then you figure they should be able to beat Syracuse.
• 24:05
  Speaker 7: And then it gets a little dicey with others. Not
• 24:07
  Speaker 7: that they can't win those games, but you can't just
• 24:09
  Speaker 7: puncle them in with a tremendous amount of confidence because
• 24:13
  Speaker 7: the last time we saw this team play football game
• 24:16
  Speaker 7: under most of this staff. It was not a pretty sight,
• 24:19
  Speaker 7: and they don't exactly have eye popping down. They have
• 24:22
  Speaker 7: four players total on the preseason all ECC ballot. So
• 24:26
  Speaker 7: it's not just fans and others that look at this
• 24:29
  Speaker 7: roster and say man one of the stars. A lot
• 24:31
  Speaker 7: of people are. David Hale put out his preseason takes
• 24:36
  Speaker 7: as Carolina eighteenth, and he's basically saying, where are the players?
• 24:40
  Speaker 7: So we will find out there are probably really good
• 24:42
  Speaker 7: players here that people don't know about, because that seems
• 24:45
  Speaker 7: to be the thing in college football now. But right now,
• 24:48
  Speaker 7: looking ahead, it's hard to see them guaranteeing. It's hard
• 24:52
  Speaker 7: to guarantee a certain number of wins after a.
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: Couple Yeah, Andrew Jones is with us talking tar heels
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: right here on the Mack and Bone Show tar Heel
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: twenty four to seven dot Com. Andrew, let's talk about
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: the quarterback position. I mean, do you feel is this
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: wide open? How many are truly have a chance to start?
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: Is it is it really just two?
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: Three?
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: Are all four involved in the mix? What are your
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: thoughts on that QB battle?
• 25:19
  Speaker 7: I think they're gonna look at all four legitimately for
• 25:23
  Speaker 7: different reasons. One, I would say Travis Burgess at some
• 25:28
  Speaker 7: point went healthy because he's the most talented guy in
• 25:30
  Speaker 7: the room, but he's he wasn't how he injured his
• 25:33
  Speaker 7: ACL at the beginning of last season. He wasn't one
• 25:35
  Speaker 7: hundred percent during the spring. We don't know exactly where
• 25:38
  Speaker 7: he is in that respect right now. But the other
• 25:41
  Speaker 7: thing that's been pushed behind the scenes, and that I've
• 25:44
  Speaker 7: been told by the program since last December, is that
• 25:47
  Speaker 7: they're really looking at twenty twenty seven. If you start
• 25:50
  Speaker 7: to talk to people in the around the athletic department
• 25:53
  Speaker 7: and the program, they Golchick isn't trying to win big
• 25:57
  Speaker 7: right now. He would love to win big right now,
• 25:59
  Speaker 7: but he's I had to build a foundation. And part
• 26:02
  Speaker 7: of bringing in forty freshmen and a lot of young
• 26:05
  Speaker 7: other transfers that maybe didn't play a ton at other
• 26:08
  Speaker 7: schools is that they're pitching development hard and they're pushing
• 26:11
  Speaker 7: toward twenty twenty seven. So if you're aiming at twenty
• 26:15
  Speaker 7: twenty seven, yeah, Billy Edwards seems like the obvious guy
• 26:18
  Speaker 7: right now, but not the twenty seven component that would
• 26:21
  Speaker 7: be somebody else because he'll be gone. So I do
• 26:23
  Speaker 7: think all four quarterbacks are going to get really good looks.
• 26:26
  Speaker 7: But I do also think that when Day one starts
• 26:29
  Speaker 7: next Thursday, that Billy Embers will be QB one at
• 26:32
  Speaker 7: that time. In fact, we've talked to people associated with
• 26:35
  Speaker 7: him say that he's been told that.
• 26:38
  Speaker 6: Andrew, what would you say a successful season would be
• 26:42
  Speaker 6: for the Tals team?
• 26:45
  Speaker 7: I would say number one, no drama, and it's gonna start.
• 26:50
  Speaker 7: And I mean, that's it, because that was the story
• 26:53
  Speaker 7: last year. That week after the week after Clemson was
• 26:56
  Speaker 7: bigger than what Clemson did in the first quarter of
• 26:58
  Speaker 7: that game. So they've got to avoid the drama. Number one.
• 27:02
  Speaker 7: Number two, they have to look competent. It has everything
• 27:06
  Speaker 7: that we're being told behind the scenes that they are
• 27:10
  Speaker 7: way ahead of where they were a year ago. A
• 27:12
  Speaker 7: lot of things were learned. They have to look like
• 27:14
  Speaker 7: it on the field. At number three, they're going to
• 27:16
  Speaker 7: have to win at least four games. And I've talked
• 27:19
  Speaker 7: to people in the athletic department that would play a
• 27:22
  Speaker 7: role in making decisions, and they're not too worried about
• 27:25
  Speaker 7: win numbers right now. No one's going to give you
• 27:27
  Speaker 7: a win number, but they will say, you've got they've
• 27:30
  Speaker 7: got to share significant improvement. They have to show that
• 27:33
  Speaker 7: this thing is pushing in the right direction, which could
• 27:36
  Speaker 7: lead towards twenty and twenty seven outbreak.
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: Andrew, I know you're real sourced in obviously with the program.
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: Do you feel like when you hear nationally all the
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: talk about about Belichick, it's like, oh, is he going
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: to survive? Is he coaching for his job? Do you
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: feel but yet he goes out they go out there
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: and they bring in the forty freshmen that you talked about,
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: this big freshman class and talk about building, you know,
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: with young players. Do you feel like, is he coaching
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: for his job? Is there a world where he gets
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: fired after this year or do you think there's at
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: least another year to his leash there?
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: What do you think?
• 28:13
  Speaker 7: I think there are two things at play here. Number One,
• 28:17
  Speaker 7: if he goes to a season where they go to
• 28:20
  Speaker 7: and ten and there's more chaos and a lot of the
• 28:22
  Speaker 7: narratives are about things not on the field because people
• 28:26
  Speaker 7: are looking for stuff like that, how much more does
• 28:28
  Speaker 7: he want to do it? That would be one question.
• 28:30
  Speaker 7: The other one would be that again they're not looking
• 28:33
  Speaker 7: at win numbers right now, there's the athletic departments view
• 28:37
  Speaker 7: of this, that's have patience. This guy is a legend
• 28:41
  Speaker 7: for a reason. Let's see if he can figure it out.
• 28:43
  Speaker 7: We're North Carolina. We've spent the last one hundred and
• 28:46
  Speaker 7: twenty years trying to figure it out. What's another year
• 28:48
  Speaker 7: or two? Essentially?
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: I like that. I like that all right. He is
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: Andrew Jones.
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: Everybody, you know he's going to have you locked in
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: on football stuff, basketball stuff. There's a lot of great
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: best fall stuff that he has pumped out here too
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: recently as well. AJ tar Heel two four seven on Twitter.
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: That is his handle tar heels twenty four to seven
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: dot com. Andrew, You're great man, Thank you so much.
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: Appreciate you, appreciate you guys, be good so much. There
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: you go, Andrew Jones tar Heel twenty four to seven
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: dot com. There Husky Pants says, what is a successful
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: season not being an embarrassment?
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: That'll help?
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: I feel like that's kind of what he said at
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: the start there in a roundabout way when he said
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: no drama, like can the can Jordan Hudson be in
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: the background? Could she be just supporting Bill in the background?
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: Bone.
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: Maybe she does little extra cheerleading competition or two focus
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: on her own stuff.
• 29:45
  Speaker 6: Maybe she gets involved in more than need Tucket drama
• 29:47
  Speaker 6: than Chobo Hill drama.
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: Bowl game has to be it.
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: We talked about this yesterday, right FITDDI said, with six
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: and six, with this schedule one that Phil Steele has
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: thirteenth in the huntry, you would you take that right now? Fit?
• 30:03
  Speaker 9: You have to write, oh, I would get me a
• 30:06
  Speaker 9: panther thong and brought a to panther victory dances in
• 30:09
  Speaker 9: on the Heel Top blog video podcast.
• 30:10
  Speaker 6: I definitely if they were to go, I don't know
• 30:15
  Speaker 6: what to say to that because for another team to
• 30:17
  Speaker 6: get you in your undies here because it's like I.
• 30:19
  Speaker 9: Told you yesterday, Mac, if they're gonna get they're gonna
• 30:22
  Speaker 9: get to a bowl game, they're gonna have to.
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: Beat at least at least two.
• 30:27
  Speaker 9: I would say, really good football teams, you know, and
• 30:32
  Speaker 9: I don't know who those two are. Tc HU has
• 30:35
  Speaker 9: been nine and four each of the last two years.
• 30:36
  Speaker 9: I got a new quarterback coming in.
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: That game.
• 30:39
  Speaker 9: Is always tricky to start the season over in Dublin
• 30:42
  Speaker 9: because you get maybe a Louisville at home at the
• 30:44
  Speaker 9: back end of the year.
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: I don't know huge so huge, or even a pit
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: on the road or an NC state for a damn change.
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: Like like to your point, if you're gonna win six
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: with that schedule, bone you're.
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: Gonna win an.
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: You're gonna win a game or two that is that
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: you're not supposed to win, And I think that would
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: be a nice start. You know, they did get more
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: competitive last year, but there's been a lot of turnover.
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: Like they brought in forty freshmen twenty transfers, but they
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: lost thirty one transfers too. You know, a lot of
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: the studs up front on that defense and that type
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: of have moved on.
• 31:19
  Speaker 6: And while the NFL and college are similar more now
• 31:24
  Speaker 6: in some ways than they used to be, that type
• 31:26
  Speaker 6: of roster upheaval is not what Belichick is used to. No,
• 31:29
  Speaker 6: he's used to connuity. What does he have the next two, three,
• 31:32
  Speaker 6: four or five years. That was one of my biggest
• 31:34
  Speaker 6: questions about Belichick was when the roster flips over every year,
• 31:39
  Speaker 6: how's he going to adjust to that? And we'll see.
• 31:42
  Speaker 6: I don't know still it still remains to be seen.
• 31:44
  Speaker 6: It's till far not good, but we'll they'll be fascinating. Though,
• 31:47
  Speaker 6: I just I keep saying this. I wish they had
• 31:49
  Speaker 6: the easy schedule of last year this year. I guess,
• 31:53
  Speaker 6: I guess I just should stop saying that because that
• 31:54
  Speaker 6: ain't gonna happen. But like that would have been way
• 31:56
  Speaker 6: more ideal because he said it. Fitty said they could
• 32:01
  Speaker 6: be a better team and not show up at all
• 32:03
  Speaker 6: on the win loss record, and the national media just
• 32:06
  Speaker 6: looking at the win loss record saying, dude won eight
• 32:08
  Speaker 6: like four games in back to back years. They're going
• 32:11
  Speaker 6: buzzards are gonna be circling, but they may have actually improved.
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 32:14
  Speaker 6: We now go to a man who the buzzards will
• 32:16
  Speaker 6: never circle, Fitty Marlowe.
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: Fitty.

  Speaker 1: And maybe he will be here at some point once

  Speaker 1: Lebron leaves, right, But what about Tuka? Is this a
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: bad dad move to leave Brownie behind? Or is he

  Speaker 1: But to Fitty's point though, no bron is that ultimately
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: equal no gig At some point.
• 34:38
  Speaker 6: You know, well, his dad he'll just sign them. If
• 34:41

  Speaker 6: When we come back to wrap up Sports Radio ninety

  Speaker 6: two seven, w FNZ.
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: Said, you came here because you can believe you can
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: win here. Why is that?
• 36:03
  Speaker 5: Kentucky historically is fought against a narrative, against perception.
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: Why do you think you can win big here? This
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: is gonna sound like really.
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: I think because of me, To be honest, I thin
• 36:23
  Speaker 3: because of me.
• 36:24
  Speaker 10: I think. I know what it takes. I have seen
• 36:28
  Speaker 10: at the highest levels. I know what it takes to
• 36:30
  Speaker 10: recruit at this level. And you just got to believe. Man,
• 36:36
  Speaker 10: you just got to put the ball down and play.
• 36:38
  Speaker 10: There's not really else to be said. Is it going

  Speaker 7: I don't know.
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: I really don't.
• 36:43
  Speaker 10: If I had a crystal ball, everybody in this room
• 36:45
  Speaker 10: would be really, really rich right now.
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: That's the most gangstep answer and did I say that
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: cool or not?
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: Gangstep? Hold on, let's say say it again. That's the
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: most gangster answer I heard at sec K mag. I
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: agree that will Stein sure is a gutstar.
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: The start of that is beautiful. How do you why
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: do you think? Why do you believe that at Kentucky,
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: a place without football tradition that has not been able
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: to win consistently, you will win consistently?
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: Because it's me.
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: He should have just dropped the mic on that one
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: right there, Like he shouldn't have even continued. He should
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: have said because will Stein's the coach now, might drop
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: smell you later. And you got to believe in yourself.
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: You take a job like that. He's from Kentucky, by
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: the way, Like he grew up being a Kentucky fan
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: and stuff like that, so it means a lot to him.
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: But yeah, you take a job like that, you gotta
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: believe in yourself. But I'm telling you this, though, bone
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: people have believed in themselves before and taking you know,
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: Stoops did a pretty damn good job. It just got stale. Yeah,
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: but belief in yourself alone, You're gonna need some nil money.
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: You're gonna need an eye for town You're gonna need
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: a lot more than just believe in yourself to win
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: football at Kentucky and will Stein was the New York
• 37:58

• 38:33
  Speaker 1: must be a saint. He's practically Gandhi. He doesn't deserve
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: this from you guys. If if I were him, I'd

• 40:40
  Speaker 1: I thought ninety two was commenting on you know, they

  Speaker 1: could debate one day steven A would like a shot
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: out of it and televised national TV debate, So I
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: thought I thought, maybe that's what it was.
• 40:48
  Speaker 3: I'm not gonna lie back.
• 40:49
  Speaker 9: I'd watch I'd watch those two dudes debate about nuclear
• 40:54
  Speaker 9: codes and everything.
• 40:55
  Speaker 3: I'm intrigued. It can't be worse than some of the
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: other debates, if I'm just sit.
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: I mean that one that Joe Biden had man. Could
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: anybody perform worse than that in a debate? I don't
• 41:05

  Speaker 6: had to explain to the free agent listen, it's not
• 42:26
  Speaker 6: him getting to pick.
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: It's the drawn out process where he just loves the
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: attention and the fact that this is decision seventeen point
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: zero that drives me crazy. By the way, speaking of listeners,
