- 4:39Speaker 1: I'm not okay, bro. I'm going to be okay. Let's
- 4:42Speaker 1: put it that way. That's what's up. That's what's up.
- 4:44Speaker 1: I think I'm at the breaking point, man, man, to
- 4:46Speaker 1: a lot of therapy. It's just a game, right? At
- 4:49Speaker 1: the end of the day, it's just a game. It's
- 4:51Speaker 1: just a game, bro. I think, um, I think all
- 4:55Speaker 1: is going to be well pretty soon, man, if things
- 4:56Speaker 1: go according to plan. We'll see what we can do.
- 5:00Speaker 1: We'll see what we can do to help out, man.
- 5:01Speaker 3: I don't doubt in my mind I will help.
- 5:04Speaker 1: Out, man. We family at the end of the day. Yeah,
- 5:07Speaker 1: we family to an extent, my brother. But talk to me, though.
- 5:09Speaker 1: How you been, though, overall, though? Life's all right, man. Uh, Man,
- 5:13Speaker 1: I'm newlywed.
- 5:14Speaker 4: Just got married in September, so just over a month ago. So, yeah,
- 5:19Speaker 4: living the married life now. And just, you know, same
- 5:23Speaker 4: old same, man.
- 5:24Speaker 1: Working at it.
- 5:24Speaker 4: I think this is going to be my last weekend yet, though.
- 5:27Speaker 4: I've been working weekend shifts. I think this is it.
- 5:31Speaker 4: I got to get to these games. I can't do
- 5:33Speaker 4: this shit no more.
- 5:34Speaker 3: I was going to ask you, too, bro. That's probably
- 5:37Speaker 3: my next question. You been going this year?
- 5:39Speaker 4: No, because I'm still on that shift. I was like,
- 5:41Speaker 4: that's it. It's my final season. I can't do it
- 5:43Speaker 4: no more. It's torturous. I'll be at the job trying
- 5:46Speaker 4: to sneak off, watch my phone.
- 5:48Speaker 1: You know, luckily, we keep playing primetime game.
- 5:50Speaker 4: But the problem with that is I get up at
- 5:52Speaker 4: 3 in the morning, dog. So, you know, I'm blanking
- 5:56Speaker 4: at 1130 while I'm waiting for the game to go off. But, yeah,
- 6:00Speaker 4: hopefully next year I can just go and pull up
- 6:02Speaker 4: and be at all of them. I'm going to the
- 6:03Speaker 4: Devontae game. I'm not going to this one. just because
- 6:06Speaker 4: they were just taxing too much. I took the time
- 6:09Speaker 4: off and everything, but cheapest tickets was $ 250. And I
- 6:12Speaker 4: was like, nah, I ain't paying no $ 500.
- 6:14Speaker 1: I got to take me in. I ain't paying no
- 6:16Speaker 1: $ 500 to watch this stunt, huh? Right.
- 6:19Speaker 3: She a Canes fan, too, unfortunately.
- 6:21Speaker 1: Well, I'm cool. Yeah, she had no choice. She's an
- 6:27Speaker 1: Ohio State alumni, but, you know, when she comes home.
- 6:29Speaker 2: Oh, really? Yeah, when she comes home.
- 6:31Speaker 1: Oh, that's how to do it. I threw all that out.
- 6:32Speaker 1: All that bingo, man.
- 6:33Speaker 3: Put your foot down.
- 6:35Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll play. Come on, the house divided. Well, not
- 6:39Speaker 1: in this one. No, man, we'll play this kind of game, man. No, man,
- 6:43Speaker 1: that's serious. That's real unique, especially with you guys. We
- 6:48Speaker 1: got old beef. Right, right, right. We got old beef
- 6:51Speaker 1: and new beef.
- 6:52Speaker 5: Right.
- 6:53Speaker 1: She's really dedicated. She's all the way in.
- 6:56Speaker 3: But you've been out of the job for a little bit, man,
- 6:57Speaker 3: so you may be getting a little scared for this
- 6:59Speaker 3: upcoming year.
- 6:59Speaker 4: Yeah, I ain't been pushing it, so now I'm going
- 7:02Speaker 4: to actually try to push the issue this next coming round.
- 7:05Speaker 1: Hello, man. This is my guy, Larry.
- 7:06Speaker 3: I've been going way back since the roll-up days, you know,
- 7:09Speaker 3: the big three roll-up. I always like tapping my boy
- 7:13Speaker 3: during this time of year. Of course, we have the
- 7:14Speaker 3: jokes and letting it fly. But let's talk about the Canes, bro,
- 7:17Speaker 3: because you guys are 5-0, like you said. Everything is
- 7:21Speaker 3: hitting on us in offense, defense. I still got some
- 7:24Speaker 3: questions within the secondary, but I do know you guys
- 7:26Speaker 3: got been banged up with this. Bobby came at the
- 7:29Speaker 3: perfect time to get some guys back. Let's talk about
- 7:31Speaker 3: the start of the program and the games, man, because
- 7:33Speaker 3: it seems like Mario finally got the wheels rolling from
- 7:37Speaker 3: a program standpoint. Yeah, I mean, we couldn't ask for
- 7:42Speaker 3: much more.
- 7:42Speaker 1: Everything was looking good. You couldn't ask for much more.
- 7:45Speaker 4: You know, like when he came to the program, he
- 7:48Speaker 4: said he, you know, he wanted to have the championship
- 7:51Speaker 4: roster by year five. So, you know, being able to
- 7:55Speaker 4: play in the title game last year, have a nice
- 7:57Speaker 4: little playoff run. it kind of set the wheels in
- 8:00Speaker 4: motion even a little bit earlier than he wanted to.
- 8:02Speaker 1: Right.
- 8:03Speaker 4: If you look around college football right now, you, you
- 8:06Speaker 4: gotta have us in that, in that group of guys
- 8:08Speaker 4: that could actually win this whole thing.
- 8:11Speaker 1: Um, you know, I know we can't win it.
- 8:20Speaker 4: Look, uh, you know, if you look around six to 10,
- 8:23Speaker 4: six to 10 teams, probably that you would, you know, say, honestly,
- 8:26Speaker 4: I have a legit chance to, to bring this thing
- 8:28Speaker 4: on home. So, Yeah, I mean, he built it out
- 8:30Speaker 4: the way he wanted to. Both ways, portal-wise, did a
- 8:34Speaker 4: good job with that. And then every year that's been
- 8:36Speaker 4: throttled down a little bit. Outside of the quarterback spot, obviously,
- 8:39Speaker 4: we went in the well every year for that. And, hey,
- 8:42Speaker 4: it's paying a dividend. I don't know what you want
- 8:44Speaker 4: us to do. And then, you know, through the high
- 8:47Speaker 4: school ranks. You know, right now we sit at, what,
- 8:49Speaker 4: I think number four class. We just had a decommitment.
- 8:53Speaker 4: He considering y'all, too, I believe, Jatori Williams. Got to
- 8:57Speaker 4: get all his.
- 8:57Speaker 2: People, man. Yeah, yeah.
- 8:59Speaker 1: I mean, you know. He must know what I know
- 9:02Speaker 1: or something like that. Yeah, he must have got a call.
- 9:05Speaker 1: He got some calls from him, bro. He'll make it
- 9:07Speaker 1: right now.
- 9:08Speaker 4: What you're saying, that's not going to be the situation.
- 9:11Speaker 4: Maybe that's what he was told.
- 9:12Speaker 1: I don't know. But he's an Alabama kid, so I'm
- 9:14Speaker 1: thinking maybe he might want to stay home. But we'll see. But, yeah,
- 9:18Speaker 1: I mean, all in all, you know, he's just been
- 9:20Speaker 1: able to get it done in every phase of the game.
- 9:22Speaker 4: I know everybody, you know, had the jokes and all, and.
- 9:24Speaker 1: He was like the little trajectory clip. But it's like. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 9:29Speaker 4: The joke ain't funny no more, man. It just ain't
- 9:32Speaker 4: funny no more. Like, everything's rolling in the right direction.
- 9:36Speaker 4: And like I said, we're getting healthy enough that with
- 9:39Speaker 4: this schedule, we.
- 9:40Speaker 1: Should be able to kind of compete all the way through.
- 9:43Speaker 4: Hopefully, we could be even more healthy when we get
- 9:45Speaker 4: further down the stretch. But if you look at what
- 9:47Speaker 4: we've done so far, considering the amount of people that
- 9:50Speaker 4: have been missing, you know, starters and depth pieces have
- 9:54Speaker 4: been out and really haven't missed a beat. Because I
- 9:57Speaker 4: know it's like, oh, yeah, you you haven't played you
- 9:59Speaker 4: know anybody and i agree with a lot of that
- 10:01Speaker 4: i'm not i'll never fight that to me it's about
- 10:04Speaker 4: how you look though how do you look when you're
- 10:05Speaker 4: playing these lesser opponents are you making them you're putting
- 10:08Speaker 4: them to bed and it's like all right there's nothing
- 10:10Speaker 4: here then you gotta think you gotta give credit where
- 10:13Speaker 4: credit is due so.
- 10:14Speaker 3: No i agree with that and the thing with miami
- 10:16Speaker 3: this year that I don't really, and I think it's more,
- 10:20Speaker 3: I do think it's kind of opponent as well, too.
- 10:23Speaker 3: I do, I guess the only weakness I could see
- 10:25Speaker 3: is possibly that secondary or whatnot. I think Clemson has
- 10:28Speaker 3: some opportunities, but their quarterback, their offense is just terrible.
- 10:31Speaker 2: In my opinion.
- 10:32Speaker 3: It's pretty bad. It's bad. I think the defense gave
- 10:35Speaker 3: them a shot to make it competitive. I don't know
- 10:37Speaker 3: how long that could have actually stood up throughout the game,
- 10:40Speaker 3: but yeah, you guys showed multiple ways to win. Malachi
- 10:44Speaker 3: pretty much was, I ain't gonna say it was a non-factor,
- 10:45Speaker 3: but they did a lot to slowed him down that
- 10:48Speaker 3: Clemson game, you guys still was able to score 40-plus
- 10:50Speaker 3: points and not make a competitive game.
- 10:53Speaker 1: I do.
- 10:56Speaker 3: Appreciate how physical you guys are from the inside out.
- 11:00Speaker 1: I do appreciate that.
- 11:02Speaker 3: He brings old vibes to that as far as the
- 11:05Speaker 3: physicality and that type of deal.
- 11:08Speaker 1: I do appreciate that. He made it a priority.
- 11:11Speaker 4: It was something that He made sure he took care
- 11:15Speaker 4: of first and foremost was the trenches. And you see
- 11:17Speaker 4: it showing up. And when you say secondary, it's a
- 11:21Speaker 4: legit concern, I would say. But, you know, you're missing
- 11:23Speaker 4: your number one guy, O.J.
- 11:25Speaker 1: Frederick. But I'll tell you right now, I don't expect O.J.
- 11:28Speaker 1: back this year.
- 11:29Speaker 4: He just tends to be injury prone. Bro got hurt on, what,
- 11:31Speaker 4: the first play of the game, I think.
- 11:33Speaker 1: That was crazy. I was like, are you kidding me? Yeah, shoulder.
- 11:36Speaker 4: So, I think something real bad there. You know, Mario
- 11:40Speaker 4: blowing smoke. I don't think we're getting him back. But
- 11:42Speaker 4: we will have Xavier Lucas back for this game, too.
- 11:44Speaker 4: So that'll bring at least our number two quarterback back
- 11:47Speaker 4: to the fold.
- 11:48Speaker 1: That's the guy y'all was tampering with, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 11:51Speaker 3: They have a game strong. Y'all got to wrap with
- 11:55Speaker 3: that tampering, bro. Let's talk about your quarterback, bro. That
- 11:57Speaker 3: was crazy how y'all pulled that one off.
- 11:58Speaker 1: Hey, hey. Pay the cost to be the boss. You
- 12:02Speaker 1: want to play in this league or not? Y'all got
- 12:04Speaker 1: a quarterback? Y'all got a quarterback?
- 12:11Speaker 3: I got to pull Mario to the side to the bathroom,
- 12:14Speaker 3: ACC media day or something.
- 12:15Speaker 1: We got to have a conversation by the last day.
- 12:17Speaker 1: But the key is you got to be able to
- 12:18Speaker 1: win that fight. That's the key. And man, you know,
- 12:21Speaker 1: if you want to pull that collar, you got to
- 12:23Speaker 1: make sure you don't come out with your shirt wrinkled up.
- 12:25Speaker 1: You know, that's all. You know, Mario, they say still
- 12:27Speaker 1: get in the gym, train for the CIA and all
- 12:29Speaker 1: that good stuff. So tap him on the shoulder if
- 12:32Speaker 1: you want to.
- 12:34Speaker 3: I'm just saying, we had to have a conversation. That's
- 12:36Speaker 3: a good point, though. You never have to be able
- 12:37Speaker 3: to be ready to come after that conversation.
- 12:40Speaker 2: But yeah, probably.
- 12:41Speaker 1: He handled it like a G. Nah, he did, he did.
- 12:44Speaker 3: I respect, he went in, he went in pivoting and
- 12:46Speaker 3: just got somebody. I do respect the job he's been
- 12:48Speaker 3: doing with the lack of resources.
- 12:50Speaker 1: Yeah, next coach, next coach at Florida State. I won't
- 12:53Speaker 1: mind it, bro.
- 12:54Speaker 3: I know, and I won't, the reason I won't mind
- 12:56Speaker 3: it because I don't look at just, you know, I
- 12:58Speaker 3: was talking hella shit about Manny back then, but I
- 13:00Speaker 3: did for two reasons. One, he was a first year
- 13:04Speaker 3: head coach.
- 13:05Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.
- 13:05Speaker 3: First-time head coach, rather, in a big-time-ass program. Like, Manny
- 13:09Speaker 3: was supposed to go to, he was supposed to go
- 13:11Speaker 3: to Tampa, get his JV legs, right? Get his JV
- 13:14Speaker 3: legs and get them shits up on him and get going,
- 13:16Speaker 3: but we had the unexpected retirement of Rick, and then
- 13:19Speaker 3: he just kind of got put into that position in Miami,
- 13:22Speaker 3: but we all know the resources. Yeah, it's going to
- 13:24Speaker 3: be fun. We all know from a resource standpoint, you
- 13:28Speaker 3: guys want to invest in him, Manny. That's one of
- 13:30Speaker 3: the reasons Mario had that shit. You pretty much said
- 13:32Speaker 3: this shit, too. He's not coming here unless we got X, Y,
- 13:35Speaker 3: and Z or whatever lined up for him.
- 13:38Speaker 1: Once he came, X, Y, and Z was lined up for.
- 13:42Speaker 2: Him.
- 13:43Speaker 3: And also, he did a lot of good shit at Miami, too.
- 13:46Speaker 3: We used to give him that shit about the Portal Kings. Like, bro,
- 13:48Speaker 3: Manny was the first motherfucker to kind of go into
- 13:50Speaker 3: the portal and get the quarterback.
- 13:52Speaker 1: Ah, for sure.
- 13:53Speaker 3: The Air King, he was about to get, if I'm
- 13:55Speaker 3: not mistaken, because I remember during that time frame, you
- 13:58Speaker 3: guys were in and running for Hurts, right?
- 14:00Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts.
- 14:01Speaker 4: Yeah, we had a pitch for him. I ain't mad
- 14:08Speaker 4: at him for that. Honestly, you kind of called it out.
- 14:11Speaker 4: I think he needed to cut his teeth a little
- 14:12Speaker 4: bit first.
- 14:14Speaker 3: He went to a D.C., a P4 D.C., did real good.
- 14:19Speaker 3: He was on James Franklin, who I think is a
- 14:21Speaker 3: damn good head coach. You learn from him. You go
- 14:23Speaker 3: to Duke. I just think the job he's been doing
- 14:25Speaker 3: at Duke is with the resources.
- 14:27Speaker 1: More or less.
- 14:29Speaker 3: More or less, bro.
- 14:30Speaker 1: Y'all need to get used to more or less. That's
- 14:33Speaker 1: going to be the new Florida State. A scrappy group.
- 14:38Speaker 3: Let me preface this because some of my comments like, hey, man,
- 14:43Speaker 3: you know, Fanny showed this, that, and the third, man.
- 14:46Speaker 3: Round with kids, my car, man. I could have worn
- 14:49Speaker 3: it if it wasn't PG. First of all, I never
- 14:53Speaker 3: said this was a PG type of Disney show in
- 14:56Speaker 3: the first day in place, man. I never gave that
- 14:57Speaker 3: vibe off. I'm prefacing or not. This live field, definitely
- 15:01Speaker 3: have a lot of customers this time of year. So
- 15:02Speaker 3: if you got kids, save this shit for later.
- 15:05Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 15:07Speaker 2: But you remember the quarterback?
- 15:08Speaker 3: I'm like, bro, like, come on, man. But you remember
- 15:10Speaker 3: the quarterback from Texas? I think it was Malik Murphy
- 15:12Speaker 3: or something like that.
- 15:13Speaker 2: Yep.
- 15:14Speaker 3: He ended up getting him out of the portal. He
- 15:15Speaker 3: didn't pan out. He ended up pivoting and winning. Got
- 15:19Speaker 3: probably the best quarterback in the damn portal last year.
- 15:21Speaker 3: Really nobody knew about it in Mensa. In the rest
- 15:23Speaker 3: of his history, you know, you guys kind of stole
- 15:25Speaker 3: it from there. I thought it was interesting as well, too,
- 15:27Speaker 3: that– Why Florida didn't kind of go after him, I
- 15:31Speaker 3: guess that's another story for a different damn day. As
- 15:35Speaker 3: far as getting Mensah out of the portal, I don't know.
- 15:38Speaker 1: Motherfuckers, they probably didn't give him the belt. That's the thing.
- 15:42Speaker 4: We talk about Tamper, but I mean, Mensah had built
- 15:45Speaker 4: the buzz for himself at Tulane.
- 15:47Speaker 1: The next day, he was at Duke.
- 15:48Speaker 4: I'm like, that's why you got to respect the game
- 15:51Speaker 4: because he could have.
- 15:53Speaker 1: Done better than Duke.
- 15:54Speaker 3: That was crazy.
- 15:55Speaker 1: He could have done better than Duke when he went
- 15:57Speaker 1: to Duke. He did. It was amazing. I was like, bro,
- 16:00Speaker 1: how is this dude getting all this buzz? And he's
- 16:02Speaker 1: just going straight to Duke? Like, play the film a
- 16:06Speaker 1: little bit. At one time, dude, I think, and he
- 16:10Speaker 1: made no bad of me, he was making two mil
- 16:11Speaker 1: at Duke. Something like that, yo. Yeah, something like that.
- 16:15Speaker 2: That was big.
- 16:15Speaker 1: Yeah, damn good money. Damn good money, right.
- 16:17Speaker 3: That was big then, so.
- 16:19Speaker 4: Who say somebody didn't have three for him, though? It
- 16:21Speaker 4: was the way it went for him. A guy that
- 16:23Speaker 4: was making some noise, you know, for where he was at, Tulane.
- 16:26Speaker 4: His name was growing and buzzing. And it was like,
- 16:28Speaker 4: I liked him at Tulane. And the next thing you know, boom,
- 16:31Speaker 4: he at Duke. It was like, he in the transfer portal,
- 16:33Speaker 4: he at Duke.
- 16:33Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, damn.
- 16:35Speaker 4: Okay, well, I guess we ain't got no shot at
- 16:36Speaker 4: this guy. He's already, you know, his decision already made. So,
- 16:39Speaker 4: you know, what goes around comes around. You know, they
- 16:41Speaker 4: did their thing. And the game is the game. The
- 16:43Speaker 4: game cold, man. We'll do it again, too.
- 16:46Speaker 1: If you go to the NFL this year, if we
- 16:48Speaker 1: got to, we'll do it again.
- 16:49Speaker 3: I don't think we will. I think we're pretty good
- 16:51Speaker 3: in the QB room. That's another conversation as well, too.
- 16:54Speaker 3: But I do think– You got to develop. Well, I
- 16:58Speaker 3: don't know now because how this shit looking, man. You
- 16:59Speaker 3: can develop and.
- 17:02Speaker 1: You can develop a guy ready to go to the NFL.
- 17:04Speaker 3: Yeah, if you got a ready-made team, develop everything around you,
- 17:06Speaker 3: pay a motherfucker eight million out of the portal, talk
- 17:08Speaker 3: guy out of the portal, shit, you can kind of
- 17:10Speaker 3: cook it every year with that.
- 17:11Speaker 1: So we'll see how that play out. But y'all have
- 17:13Speaker 1: been recruiting pretty well at the quarterback position.
- 17:14Speaker 3: And you may want to go with those guys. But
- 17:17Speaker 3: not to say all that, to say this, man, like
- 17:18Speaker 3: from an FSU fan standpoint, like do not... I wouldn't
- 17:21Speaker 3: judge Manny based upon his time in Miami. Like that's... Nah,
- 17:25Speaker 3: it was a little too early for him. It was
- 17:27Speaker 3: way too early, in my opinion, for that type of job.
- 17:32Speaker 3: The only thing I would honestly question, Matty, is I
- 17:37Speaker 3: would question a little bit if y'all got on his
- 17:41Speaker 3: recruiting to an extent.
- 17:43Speaker 1: But even with that, though, bro, if I remember correctly,
- 17:46Speaker 1: y'all was in some battles.
- 17:47Speaker 3: Y'all was in some battles. It was just some points.
- 17:51Speaker 3: So at that point in time, well, Y'all losing to
- 17:53Speaker 3: the SEC. And we knew at that point in time
- 17:56Speaker 3: who y'all weren't paying shit. They was paying shit.
- 17:58Speaker 2: They wasn't. Right.
- 18:00Speaker 1: I was questioning. I wasn't necessarily. Y'all wasn't. Y'all was, like,
- 18:03Speaker 1: losing as well, too. But I just remember. Yeah, we
- 18:05Speaker 1: were still mid. Y'all shouldn't have been there, too, in
- 18:07Speaker 1: my opinion. We were still mid.
- 18:09Speaker 4: So, that's why I say I wouldn't necessarily say he's
- 18:11Speaker 4: not good at it. Or I definitely think he got
- 18:14Speaker 4: the motive for it. And, like, you ain't going to
- 18:16Speaker 4: get a Deion, right? Like, he not just going to
- 18:17Speaker 4: sit on and just chill and hope the people come
- 18:20Speaker 4: to him.
- 18:20Speaker 1: He going to put the work in. So with the resources,
- 18:24Speaker 1: we'll see.
- 18:24Speaker 4: I think if he was to get that opportunity with
- 18:28Speaker 4: Florida State, I definitely think they'll put more resources into
- 18:31Speaker 4: him than we did. And the whole situation with him
- 18:34Speaker 4: was he got it too early, and then it was like, look,
- 18:38Speaker 4: we got the money, but I ain't giving it to him.
- 18:40Speaker 1: Mario had already been doing some things at Oregon, so
- 18:42Speaker 1: that's how it was.
- 18:42Speaker 4: But if y'all land, man, I would be like, all right,
- 18:47Speaker 4: they might be cooking a little something up over there.
- 18:48Speaker 1: We'll see how it goes.
- 18:49Speaker 3: I think he'll be a solid candidate.
- 18:51Speaker 1: I just wouldn't dismiss him completely and say, oh, no,
- 18:53Speaker 1: that motherfucker went to 75 at Miami. Nah, I wouldn't
- 18:56Speaker 1: do that. I think that'd be short-sighted.
- 18:58Speaker 2: Right, exactly.
- 18:59Speaker 3: But again, though, I'm talking.
- 19:02Speaker 1: About theme music.
- 19:03Speaker 3: We've got a super chat real quick. You're fired. Shout
- 19:18Speaker 3: out to my boy KP. We're going to open the
- 19:20Speaker 3: call lines up in a minute, man. Let you guys
- 19:22Speaker 3: get y'all shit off. Y'all better do the Lord's work Saturday, Larry.
- 19:26Speaker 3: It pains me to say this. My heart nemesis. Y'all
- 19:31Speaker 3: better win by 30. I'm roasting y'all. What the word is?
- 19:34Speaker 3: A friend of my enemy is my friend?
- 19:36Speaker 1: Well, bow your head, brother.
- 19:37Speaker 2: What is it?
- 19:39Speaker 1: Enemy of my enemy is my friend? Yeah. The enemy
- 19:43Speaker 1: of my enemy is my friend. Yeah, so that's what
- 19:45Speaker 1: it is. Bow your head, brother. Don't worry about it.
- 19:48Speaker 1: Don't worry about it.
- 19:49Speaker 2: You'll be right around. the corner.
- 19:50Speaker 1: Why don't you come on up and see? KP, I
- 19:52Speaker 1: know you live right around that block. Come on around.
- 19:56Speaker 1: Catch a gander if you will. It ain't going to
- 19:58Speaker 1: be that hot. Come on out, man. Love to have you.
- 20:02Speaker 3: My boy KP is down in the trenches of South Florida.
- 20:05Speaker 1: Yeah, he down there in the jungle.
- 20:07Speaker 6: Right.
- 20:08Speaker 2: Nah, bro.
- 20:08Speaker 3: So, that's where I'm at with that. But as far
- 20:10Speaker 3: as the FSU team itself, man, this team here, bro, like,
- 20:12Speaker 3: I don't know, man. I don't know where to start.
- 20:15Speaker 3: I'm going to start with the quarterback at first, man.
- 20:17Speaker 3: That starts with Mike Norvell. And we had two other
- 20:21Speaker 3: quarterbacks who was on campus, too. And I don't even
- 20:23Speaker 3: think Ashton has been bad completely, right? I do think
- 20:27Speaker 3: it's a combination of play calling in certain situations, but
- 20:31Speaker 3: You have an opportunity. You bring in guys. You bring
- 20:34Speaker 3: in Calandria, the kid from, I think he was UNLV,
- 20:37Speaker 3: end up going to Nebraska. Well, Nebraska's what? They end
- 20:41Speaker 3: up losing to Indiana in the close game. They're 5-4
- 20:44Speaker 3: right now. You bring him in. You kind of lowball
- 20:47Speaker 3: him on the money. Then you bring in DJ Lagway.
- 20:49Speaker 3: You lowball him on the money. And Lagway, he's playing
- 20:52Speaker 3: pretty damn good football as well. I think eight touchdowns,
- 20:54Speaker 3: only two interceptions on the year.
- 20:57Speaker 1: He was a guy that... You said what, bro? Generational. Yeah,
- 21:01Speaker 1: that shit was crazy, bro. Them tweets was wild, bro. Oh,
- 21:04Speaker 1: my gosh.
- 21:06Speaker 3: I had a feeling on them bitches, bro. Them bitches
- 21:07Speaker 3: was crazy. But at the same time, them shits was wild, boy. Oh,
- 21:11Speaker 3: the Lagway shit. And they was on me before my,
- 21:14Speaker 3: what was the quarterback we had during that same time? Damn,
- 21:17Speaker 3: what was our quarterback, Harlan?
- 21:20Speaker 1: Castellanos.
- 21:22Speaker 2: Not Castellanos.
- 21:23Speaker 3: Yeah, Luke Cromahawk or whatever.
- 21:24Speaker 1: Cromahawk, Savannah's own, my dog. Yeah, right, right, right.
- 21:28Speaker 3: We just had those battles back and forth. We're like, motherfucker, he, oh,
- 21:31Speaker 3: you talking about, oh, he's better than, like, bro, that's
- 21:33Speaker 3: about the same damn quarterback.
- 21:36Speaker 1: At that point in time, I.
- 21:36Speaker 3: Gave DJ more credit because he's playing now, but at
- 21:38Speaker 3: the same time, I kind of, the reason I was
- 21:41Speaker 3: open to Ladwick coming is because I felt like Billy
- 21:43Speaker 3: mishandled that whole situation. Like, that kid didn't even, we
- 21:47Speaker 3: already know his freshman year, he was thrown into the
- 21:49Speaker 3: line by them players and he showed some flashes, but
- 21:52Speaker 3: your biggest jump is for your freshman and sophomore year.
- 21:54Speaker 3: You need all that damn time to develop, practice jumps
- 21:57Speaker 3: and all that type of shit. Through that surgery, this
- 21:59Speaker 3: motherfucker didn't practice at all. The entire offseason was just
- 22:03Speaker 3: a waste for him. So I feel like if he
- 22:05Speaker 3: would have came in and got, which wouldn't have been
- 22:07Speaker 3: any better because they had some actual coaching, right? Some
- 22:10Speaker 3: actual quarterback coaching. We're glad he didn't come to Florida
- 22:11Speaker 3: State because that shit would have probably ruined him. But
- 22:13Speaker 3: if he would have came in and actually got some
- 22:15Speaker 3: work and some quarterback coaching, he would have been good
- 22:17Speaker 3: because I feel like the talent was there. We already
- 22:18Speaker 3: know he had a live warm. At the very least,
- 22:21Speaker 3: we would have kept bitches honest from a standpoint of
- 22:24Speaker 3: honoring the deep ball and that type of deal because
- 22:26Speaker 3: we had Deuce. We had Boggs. We had Dancy. And
- 22:31Speaker 3: at that point in time, we had Lawayne McCoy, too. Like, literally,
- 22:34Speaker 3: during that entire DJ Ladry visit, like, Deuce Robinson and
- 22:38Speaker 3: Lawayne McCoy was tied to that boy Hill. And as
- 22:40Speaker 3: soon as Ladry left that meeting, because the numbers weren't made,
- 22:44Speaker 3: he didn't want a lot of money. Like, DJ got
- 22:46Speaker 3: paid at Florida. He was like, all right, I got
- 22:48Speaker 3: to fucking show some shit. I got to put some
- 22:50Speaker 3: damn film out. Like, the high school stuff only cares
- 22:53Speaker 3: much weight. Florida State got some good receivers. I can
- 22:56Speaker 3: come to a program where you win, you'll be in
- 22:58Speaker 3: the spotlight, throw to some guys, and then, of course,
- 23:00Speaker 3: you got a chance to get back at Florida.
- 23:01Speaker 1: So he really wanted to. That's why we had the
- 23:03Speaker 1: first damn visit. Yeah, yeah. I can see that.
- 23:05Speaker 3: He wanted to be at Florida. His number one wasn't crazy.
- 23:08Speaker 3: We just came in so cheap, but you get what
- 23:10Speaker 3: you pay for.
- 23:11Speaker 1: And lowball, you know, this is my budget. This is
- 23:14Speaker 1: what I got.
- 23:15Speaker 4: You know, the budget is a little tight right now, man.
- 23:17Speaker 4: They try to sell them more. That's the thing.
- 23:19Speaker 3: It really wasn't, though, bro, because you get the running
- 23:21Speaker 3: back from Texas like $ 600 or $ 700.
- 23:24Speaker 1: Well, you had to get him too. You just going
- 23:26Speaker 1: to give it all to DJ? No, we didn't have
- 23:29Speaker 1: to get him. That's what I'm saying. We could have
- 23:31Speaker 1: got a cheap set.
- 23:32Speaker 3: Okay, you're right. You already got a … You got Pomeroy.
- 23:36Speaker 3: You paid a big-ass penny for the flip from Georgia.
- 23:39Speaker 3: As your top guy, he's your workhorse.
- 23:41Speaker 1: You got him.
- 23:42Speaker 3: Sam Singleton has been showing good to you so far. So,
- 23:44Speaker 3: you got two really solid running backs and one that
- 23:47Speaker 3: could be a superstar. You really got to get a
- 23:49Speaker 3: curious winner because you paid him. But you're going to
- 23:51Speaker 3: get this dude here. It don't make sense. You could
- 23:53Speaker 3: throw that money.
- 23:54Speaker 1: Don't watch it off the line.
- 23:58Speaker 3: Yeah, shit like that. The running back wasn't a position
- 24:00Speaker 3: of need to that degree, the way you got to
- 24:03Speaker 3: pay a certain amount of money for him. And that's
- 24:06Speaker 3: another thing, too. People talk about the money we get. Yeah,
- 24:08Speaker 3: you want to fund more money to the program at
- 24:10Speaker 3: the same fucking time, but you got to have a
- 24:11Speaker 3: motherfucker that's spending that shit right.
- 24:15Speaker 1: Allocating the money in certain positions or whatever. That's what
- 24:18Speaker 1: people underestimate. Even if you talk about these big budget teams.
- 24:23Speaker 1: including Miami, if you want to throw us in there.
- 24:25Speaker 1: We had probably number 10 or so, 8, 10, depending
- 24:29Speaker 1: on whatever list you read. People fail to realize you
- 24:32Speaker 1: still got to budget all of this. If you got
- 24:35Speaker 1: $ 20 million or you got $ 40 million, you still got
- 24:37Speaker 1: to know what you're doing with the money so that you.
- 24:39Speaker 4: Don't dump it all over here or all over there.
- 24:42Speaker 4: You got to keep in mind you got retention. I
- 24:45Speaker 4: can't pay it all necessarily to a freshman. Right now,
- 24:50Speaker 4: I would not envy being a college coach at all. Like,
- 24:54Speaker 4: it is, man. You know, it's a lot of work
- 25:00Speaker 4: and it never stops. And it just got more complicated
- 25:03Speaker 4: for them. So it's not just having the money like
- 25:05Speaker 4: you alluded to just then. Even if you got the money,
- 25:08Speaker 4: they got to know what to do with the money, man.
- 25:11Speaker 4: And that's what made, you know, the NIL part made
- 25:14Speaker 4: this business that much more businesslike. So you got to
- 25:17Speaker 4: have the right people at the top. And it's got
- 25:19Speaker 4: trickled down into where it hits on all cylinders. Whether
- 25:24Speaker 4: you got $ 20 million or $ 40 million, you can waste,
- 25:26Speaker 4: I mean, $ 40 million team is losing games too.
- 25:29Speaker 1: So, you know, it's how you spend it.
- 25:32Speaker 3: That's what I kind of admire what Mennon's been doing.
- 25:35Speaker 3: He's working with pennies over there in comparison to the scale.
- 25:38Speaker 3: But even so, from a talent standpoint, you take all
- 25:42Speaker 3: this shit from a talent standpoint, this is a non-win
- 25:44Speaker 3: team talent-wise for sure. Without a doubt in my mind,
- 25:48Speaker 3: from A talent standpoint, you can raise the coaching, take
- 25:51Speaker 3: away the coaching. Just from a talent standpoint, this team
- 25:53Speaker 3: can definitely win nine games in the ACC. They can
- 25:56Speaker 3: definitely win nine in the ACC. But you factor in
- 25:59Speaker 3: the coaching and stuff, and that's the Mike Norvell effect.
- 26:01Speaker 3: He can't get out of his own way. Like, he
- 26:03Speaker 3: do certain plays, certain situations. Like, you go up 14-0
- 26:06Speaker 3: against Louisville, get ready, you're on a two-yard line. You
- 26:10Speaker 3: can go for the three, this, that, and third. Or
- 26:11Speaker 3: you can go for it.
- 26:12Speaker 2: I don't.
- 26:14Speaker 3: I approached him to probably win for it, but he
- 26:15Speaker 3: can't get out of his own fucking way with those
- 26:17Speaker 3: little bullshit-ass receiver screens and shit. But run the damn
- 26:20Speaker 3: ball four straight times. Louisville, at that point in time,
- 26:23Speaker 3: hasn't showed they can start to run at all. They
- 26:25Speaker 3: was getting whatever we wanted to on the run with
- 26:28Speaker 3: running the football, and you just do some shit like
- 26:30Speaker 3: that to get on the momentum.
- 26:32Speaker 1: If you're going to go for it, don't be cute.
- 26:34Speaker 4: I literally said to me and my wife, sitting down
- 26:37Speaker 4: watching the game, and I said, they just lost it
- 26:40Speaker 4: right there.
- 26:41Speaker 1: And I went to use the bathroom. Next thing I know,
- 26:43Speaker 1: I hear her screaming. You know, tore it off.
- 26:45Speaker 4: He tore it off for the night. I was like,
- 26:46Speaker 4: that's what I'm talking about. Like, I get it. I
- 26:50Speaker 4: understand it. But if you're going to do it, don't
- 26:52Speaker 4: be cute. I personally think you should have just took three.
- 26:54Speaker 4: Let's go ahead and just get 17 and make it
- 26:56Speaker 4: three possessions. That's a gift to be up three possessions
- 26:59Speaker 4: early in the game. You got some things working. But
- 27:04Speaker 4: if you're going to go, you can't get cute, bro.
- 27:06Speaker 4: You got to get these points. Like, you can't leave
- 27:08Speaker 4: the points on the ball. And then they punched you
- 27:09Speaker 4: right back. And then from there, Them boys was dead.
- 27:12Speaker 1: They was dizzy. After that, it was just, they tore off, what,
- 27:15Speaker 1: 40-something or whatever. It was 28 in a row. It
- 27:17Speaker 1: was a 44-6 run, bro. 44-6 run. That's insane. That
- 27:21Speaker 1: is insanity.
- 27:23Speaker 3: Motherfucker had 400 yards rushing that running back had two plus.
- 27:26Speaker 3: He's still running. And it's crazy because you're from Miami.
- 27:31Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah. Isaac Brown.
- 27:32Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
- 27:33Speaker 1: He won the ones. Yeah. I mean, you know the stature.
- 27:35Speaker 1: I get it. They're going to slip out the backyard
- 27:38Speaker 1: here and there, but. That's what I'm talking about. In
- 27:41Speaker 1: comparison to Miami, the issues, because the defense is terrible.
- 27:44Speaker 1: You can't start the run. You guys are physical when
- 27:46Speaker 1: it comes to running the football. You got one of
- 27:48Speaker 1: the better running backs in the ACC, in my opinion.
- 27:51Speaker 1: And Mark Fletcher did a good job last year stopping him.
- 27:54Speaker 1: But the same fucking issues we had last year as
- 27:57Speaker 1: far as the secondary, that's one of my biggest concerns.
- 28:00Speaker 3: We let Tony get open on his third downs, man, and.
- 28:04Speaker 1: It can get ugly.
- 28:05Speaker 3: It can get ugly real quick.
- 28:08Speaker 4: Yeah, he going to try to show out, man. You know,
- 28:11Speaker 4: that game, last game he played.
- 28:13Speaker 1: You know, it's crazy. He could have easily been a
- 28:14Speaker 1: damn no. Like, we was, at that point in time,
- 28:18Speaker 1: we was up. We kind of had first deals on him,
- 28:20Speaker 1: but Norvell being Norvell, he said, nah, he's too small.
- 28:24Speaker 3: And that's when he reclassified, you know, mid, three-star, whatever, this, that,
- 28:28Speaker 3: and third.
- 28:29Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah. Bro, we could have had him. Like, we
- 28:31Speaker 1: really could have had him. That guy ain't got it
- 28:34Speaker 1: right yet.
- 28:34Speaker 2: Norvell.
- 28:35Speaker 4: And whoever your top guy is, just go and kiss
- 28:40Speaker 4: him goodbye.
- 28:40Speaker 1: You ain't going to make it in the class. The hell,
- 28:43Speaker 1: the one you got this year, he running here bugging out,
- 28:45Speaker 1: doing a buck 50. Man, you can't win for losing, dog.
- 28:51Speaker 1: You can't win. I saw the story and felt bad.
- 28:53Speaker 1: You know, it's funny. Ironically, there was a report when
- 28:56Speaker 1: I said he wasn't transferred to Georgia. He was trying
- 28:58Speaker 1: to call that home. You got their attention now, motherfucker. Yeah,
- 29:03Speaker 1: you're playing their game now.
- 29:05Speaker 5: You're playing theirs now. You're not going to get to
- 29:07Speaker 5: call them off. Oh, you like to whip it crazy. Okay.
- 29:12Speaker 5: You're a bulldog through and through. You pass the test, boy. Man, listen.
- 29:20Speaker 3: You got to get a jump name to be in
- 29:22Speaker 3: the game. Boy, you pass the test.
- 29:24Speaker 1: You already down. Pass that bitch a flying color. Oh,
- 29:27Speaker 1: my God.
- 29:28Speaker 3: Let's go open the phone lines real quick and get
- 29:31Speaker 3: some callers in. Let's hang out a little bit. That's
- 29:34Speaker 3: where we're at with it, though.
- 29:36Speaker 1: It's tough. But as far as this game, man, I
- 29:38Speaker 1: do think, I don't know.
- 29:39Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 29:40Speaker 1: I think it's going to be a blowout. Let's get
- 29:47Speaker 1: a prediction.
- 29:48Speaker 2: Give me a prediction, bro.
- 29:49Speaker 1: You go first. Alright.
- 29:51Speaker 4: Listen, it's disrespectful. I will tell you it's disrespectful, but
- 29:55Speaker 4: it's the same one I gave on my show the
- 29:57Speaker 4: other day, so I'm going to keep The disrespect going.
- 30:01Speaker 4: I don't even know how I came up with this score.
- 30:03Speaker 4: I wasn't even drinking or nothing either. But I came
- 30:06Speaker 4: up with 51 to 10. So I'm going to just
- 30:09Speaker 4: keep it that way, man. I'm going to keep it
- 30:10Speaker 4: very disrespectful. One ends on a trip early. And then
- 30:14Speaker 4: after that, y'all boys are going to be pushing.
- 30:17Speaker 1: Rope, man. Trying to tell me just a minute, it'll
- 30:20Speaker 1: get bagged. All that shit.
- 30:22Speaker 3: First one or two drives. That's the Mike Norvell special.
- 30:25Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. I guarantee you. It's going to be an issue.
- 30:28Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, man.
- 30:29Speaker 4: When he first come down, I'm like, hey, look. He
- 30:33Speaker 4: getting his bag on the first drive or two. I said, hey,
- 30:36Speaker 4: everybody settle down. He's out of tricks. I seen Oregon
- 30:39Speaker 4: fans talking about they want Mike as the OCS.
- 30:42Speaker 3: Please take him. I let him over the house right now.
- 30:45Speaker 3: He'll be back.
- 30:46Speaker 1: Please take him.
- 30:47Speaker 2: Look here.
- 30:48Speaker 1: I said, now I understand this fan base a lot
- 30:50Speaker 1: more now. Now I get it. They got that tie.
- 30:54Speaker 1: They have that tie to Dan Lennon. Well, it might
- 30:57Speaker 1: not be Dan Lennon, but they feel that way. But
- 30:59Speaker 1: please take him. But, yeah, bro, I'm kind of in
- 31:01Speaker 1: the same thinking, man, because I really don't. I think
- 31:03Speaker 1: your defense is going to be good enough to stop
- 31:07Speaker 1: certain things, especially after the script plays run.
- 31:12Speaker 3: I do think the defense is damn near stout enough
- 31:15Speaker 3: to do some stuff. I do think our receivers have
- 31:18Speaker 3: opportunities against the secondary. They've got the first one. They've
- 31:20Speaker 3: got the big assistant catching the ball. And Ashton has
- 31:24Speaker 3: to have enough time. So it's a combination of things.
- 31:26Speaker 3: They got to be consistent catching the ball. Ashton has
- 31:29Speaker 3: to have enough time to get rid of all of
- 31:30Speaker 3: you guys' pass rush. He also can't be holding that
- 31:33Speaker 3: bitch too damn long in the pocket. He got to
- 31:34Speaker 3: get rid of it and, you know, trust your first read.
- 31:36Speaker 1: That's what I like to dunk and run, man. Oh,
- 31:38Speaker 1: my gosh. You like to dunk your head. I'm not
- 31:41Speaker 1: even confident in it.
- 31:42Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 31:43Speaker 3: And then you factor in Malachi, Tony, what they can do.
- 31:45Speaker 3: I think y'all can't spread me. I'm going to go.
- 31:51Speaker 1: Damn, I hate to say this. Fuck that, man. Hell no, man.
- 31:54Speaker 1: Pick a nose, man. It ain't going to hurt. It
- 31:56Speaker 1: ain't going to hurt, man. Just stick with it, man.
- 31:59Speaker 1: You can come to my altar after the game. Might
- 32:02Speaker 1: go pull the rabbit out of this tree, man. It's
- 32:03Speaker 1: going to be a 21-20 game. All right. Hey, a classic.
- 32:09Speaker 3: You guys are going to get the point and dose out.
- 32:12Speaker 3: And that's the thing, too, bro. These games are typically close.
- 32:14Speaker 3: They are typically close. That's why it's wild that I'm
- 32:17Speaker 3: calling it like that.
- 32:18Speaker 4: But I just have seen this Florida State team over
- 32:21Speaker 4: these last couple years, and I just don't trust them
- 32:23Speaker 4: no more.
- 32:23Speaker 1: Like, I just, I don't think they got enough in
- 32:26Speaker 1: the tank.
- 32:27Speaker 2: They don't.
- 32:27Speaker 3: And that's the thing, too, as far as these are,
- 32:31Speaker 3: from using boxing reference, our chin is weak as hell, right? Like,
- 32:34Speaker 3: weak as hell. Whenever we get hit, like, it's a wrap. Like,
- 32:37Speaker 3: it ain't no getting up and go bouncing back. You
- 32:39Speaker 3: can't take the blows of the momentum of the game.
- 32:42Speaker 3: You know, that's just football. This shit comes in waves.
- 32:44Speaker 3: It's hyperspotting and shit.
- 32:45Speaker 4: And that's all life in Alabama. I said, okay, look,
- 32:48Speaker 4: Noah's got some life. They got to rechapter some of that.
- 32:52Speaker 3: But I will say, once Bama came rolling back, I
- 32:56Speaker 3: thought they could have just snowballed us, but defense was
- 32:58Speaker 3: just trash. But it was some back and forth in
- 33:01Speaker 3: that game. That's where they did kind of respond a
- 33:02Speaker 3: little bit. Defense just didn't have enough to ask for
- 33:05Speaker 3: the interceptions down in that game.
- 33:09Speaker 1: But he's just been on the bad side of fucking history, bro.
- 33:11Speaker 2: Like, so.
- 33:12Speaker 3: since Bobby Bowden's been the head coach, it was a
- 33:14Speaker 3: stat that was going on around the day, since Bobby's
- 33:15Speaker 3: been the head coach back in the early 70s, FSU
- 33:19Speaker 3: has been an underdog with 21 or more seven times.
- 33:25Speaker 1: Norville has five of them bitches.
- 33:28Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 33:28Speaker 1: He's a legend. He's a legend, bro.
- 33:30Speaker 2: He's a legend.
- 33:31Speaker 4: By the time he leave, yeah, by the time he leave, bro,
- 33:33Speaker 4: he gonna put some numbers in the books that I,
- 33:35Speaker 4: you know, I don't think nobody can be able to touch.
- 33:38Speaker 4: I never, I never could imagine a Florida State program
- 33:41Speaker 4: now like this, like, it ain't even funny no more.
- 33:46Speaker 4: We did our stuff. I was like, man, I don't
- 33:48Speaker 4: even got no, like, there's no, I just feel like
- 33:51Speaker 4: I'm kicking, you know, a man while he truly down.
- 33:55Speaker 1: Yeah, he got y'all boys shooting bad, man. You got
- 33:58Speaker 1: a caller?
- 33:59Speaker 2: Yeah, we got a caller.
- 34:00Speaker 3: Let's jump in. Caller, who we got first? Rocking no.
- 34:05Speaker 3: Talks from Rose Good, bro.
- 34:06Speaker 1: How you doing?
- 34:06Speaker 3: Man, you got new Twitter and all, huh?
- 34:09Speaker 1: You muted. You muted, bro.
- 34:17Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 34:18Speaker 1: I don't think you got him muted. Okay, you going
- 34:19Speaker 1: to unmute him?
- 34:20Speaker 3: We'll get you unmuted in a second. We got my
- 34:23Speaker 3: boy Tiny Head CEO on now. Let's go to transition.
- 34:27Speaker 3: How you feeling, bro?
- 34:30Speaker 1: Good, good.
- 34:30Speaker 7: How you guys doing?
- 34:31Speaker 1: Listen, man.
- 34:35Speaker 7: We're like old yeller, and we just need Miami to
- 34:38Speaker 7: put us out of our misery this week, man.
- 34:40Speaker 1: No closer.
- 34:43Speaker 7: No field goals. Just put us out of our misery.
- 34:48Speaker 7: It's that bad. And there's going to be a 30
- 34:51Speaker 7: for 30 in the future on Mike or a Netflix special.
- 34:57Speaker 3: Oh, my God.
- 34:57Speaker 7: Like we were living it during the time. And we're like, wow,
- 35:02Speaker 7: it was really that bad.
- 35:05Speaker 4: It's a tremendous fall from grace. It really is from,
- 35:08Speaker 4: you know, undefeated season opportunity, you know, playing the playoffs
- 35:11Speaker 4: and it just fell off.
- 35:14Speaker 1: It's the seventh year, right?
- 35:16Speaker 3: Yeah. He's only had two winning seasons, bro, like two
- 35:19Speaker 3: winning seasons. And it's been, it ain't been no six
- 35:21Speaker 3: and six, six and seven, like five and seven.
- 35:25Speaker 1: Three and nine?
- 35:26Speaker 3: Right, three and nine, two and ten. Like, it's been
- 35:28Speaker 3: some bad shit. We thought Will was bad, and we thought, what,
- 35:32Speaker 3: six and six wasn't good enough? But damn.
- 35:34Speaker 7: He's going to be sitting like Jordan at his, like,
- 35:36Speaker 7: palatial estate in the Bulls' last dance because he made
- 35:40Speaker 7: all that money.
- 35:41Speaker 1: I'm talking about it all. I want to hear Mike's
- 35:44Speaker 1: story after this.
- 35:46Speaker 7: We know he ain't suffering. And we're going to be like, CJ,
- 35:50Speaker 7: remember what we lived through? We were living it during
- 35:53Speaker 7: the time. But now it's hitting us. Put us out
- 35:58Speaker 7: of our misery.
- 35:58Speaker 1: Part of me wants to see that. Part of me
- 36:05Speaker 1: wants to see that. And then another part of me
- 36:06Speaker 1: is just like, I don't know, man.
- 36:08Speaker 7: You wonder if there's a small part of Mario that's
- 36:10Speaker 7: like that.
- 36:12Speaker 3: I need this loser.
- 36:16Speaker 1: Because they're giving us too much of the soft schedule
- 36:18Speaker 1: thing so.
- 36:19Speaker 7: Yeah and it's your big end of the year I
- 36:22Speaker 7: get it but there's like 10% of him that's like
- 36:26Speaker 7: man let me hang let him hang around so yeah
- 36:32Speaker 7: I don't have to recruit against this guy what if
- 36:35Speaker 7: they get somebody who actually knows what he's doing.
- 36:38Speaker 4: Man if y'all got James Franklin oh my god it
- 36:41Speaker 4: would have been it would have been all out war
- 36:42Speaker 4: in the state of Florida.
- 36:44Speaker 3: Bruh, and he wanted that job so bad. Like, he
- 36:47Speaker 3: wanted it. Early in the season. VTEC was open early
- 36:50Speaker 3: in the season. He waited for the duration of that
- 36:52Speaker 3: shit for us to say, we're going to keep this motherfucker. Like,
- 36:54Speaker 3: he wanted this job so bad.
- 36:56Speaker 7: And if you really want to play that game, he
- 36:58Speaker 7: wanted that job in 2017 when Jimbo left.
- 37:01Speaker 1: Yeah, he did. I remember that as well, too.
- 37:02Speaker 3: He wanted it, too.
- 37:04Speaker 7: So, we don't still know what we're doing. I mean,
- 37:07Speaker 7: trust me, when they take the field Saturday, I'm still
- 37:09Speaker 7: going to cheer. I'm still going to root. But, God, like, just,
- 37:12Speaker 7: I want Sunday to be a good day.
- 37:15Speaker 1: You can do it, Cam, man. You stay in prayer, man.
- 37:17Speaker 1: I'm going to pray for you.
- 37:19Speaker 7: Please do. We need it.
- 37:20Speaker 1: But, hey, I'm going to go.

- 38:09Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yes.
- 38:11Speaker 2: The Tiny Hat CEO is back. Tiny Hat Gang, we
- 38:14Speaker 2: back you here. Well, well, well.
- 38:17Speaker 6: If it is not the most diabolical hater this side
- 38:24Speaker 6: of the Mason-Dixon line, Larryon.
- 38:28Speaker 1: Thank you.
- 38:29Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 38:31Speaker 1: What a magnificent introduction, man.
- 38:33Speaker 2: I appreciate it. My arch nemesis. I love nothing more
- 38:37Speaker 2: than to see misery brought upon this brother in terms.
- 38:40Speaker 1: Of college football. And I am not getting anything that
- 38:44Speaker 1: I prayed for. I see you down on the vine, baby.
- 38:47Speaker 2: The football gods have looked at me and said, absolutely not.
- 38:51Speaker 2: You and your little ass hat, just get over there
- 38:53Speaker 2: and sit down at the kids' table and go eat
- 38:56Speaker 2: some chicken tenders and some fries. This is miserable. This
- 39:01Speaker 2: is miserable. This is miserable. Look how happy he is, CJ.
- 39:03Speaker 2: Do you remember all them years he couldn't say nothing
- 39:06Speaker 2: to me? He couldn't say nothing. I mean, I was
- 39:10Speaker 2: legitimately sitting up here. I was singing Whitney Houston songs.
- 39:13Speaker 2: I was out here. I was out here basking in
- 39:16Speaker 2: the glory of the failure of that terrible program down there,
- 39:20Speaker 2: Coral Gable. And now look at where I'm at now.
- 39:23Speaker 2: This is a damn shit. I'm out here on Federal
- 39:25Speaker 2: Highway holding up a sign right now saying we'll take
- 39:29Speaker 2: any recruits. We'll take any recruits. Anybody.
- 39:35Speaker 1: If you can recruit anybody.
- 39:36Speaker 3: And federal, bro, correct me if I'm wrong, but federal
- 39:39Speaker 3: starts right off the airport too, so you got motherfuckers
- 39:40Speaker 3: coming into town seeing it, right?
- 39:42Speaker 2: I mean, damn, bro, they see me standing there, they're like, ooh,
- 39:44Speaker 2: is that garnet and gold he got on? Oh my God,
- 39:46Speaker 2: get him away from me. These were royal colors. These
- 39:49Speaker 2: were regal colors, all right? We were on the... We
- 39:54Speaker 2: used to be kings, CJ.
- 39:56Speaker 3: I thought you were so mean to me, brother.
- 40:01Speaker 2: That's all.
- 40:02Speaker 1: You know what this is about.
- 40:02Speaker 2: We used to be kings. I remember laughing at this, brother,
- 40:06Speaker 2: because Middle Tennessee State was throwing 98-yard bombs on us.
- 40:09Speaker 4: They smoked out of it. The minute you got on
- 40:12Speaker 4: the line, I thought about Middle Tennessee State. You know
- 40:16Speaker 4: what's funny? I've shown my son that video at least
- 40:19Speaker 4: seven times. I'm like, you see how your father got
- 40:21Speaker 4: this man quiet right here?
- 40:22Speaker 3: He ain't saying nothing to me.
- 40:26Speaker 2: And the only thing I could do right now is
- 40:27Speaker 2: just look at this brother. Smile. Look at him. Look
- 40:30Speaker 2: at him. The beard is lined up. The hat looks
- 40:33Speaker 2: fresh and white. It looks like a fresh, crisp white
- 40:35Speaker 2: tee out here, like some fresh Air Force Ones, like
- 40:39Speaker 2: it's 2001. Look at him. The shirt is pressed. Shoulders
- 40:44Speaker 2: looking strong right now. Now go sit down somewhere. Life
- 40:47Speaker 2: is good, man. I can't stand y'all.
- 40:49Speaker 4: You know, I'll just date back to the first time
- 40:53Speaker 4: I did the Colleen show. On Roll Up, a Florida
- 40:57Speaker 4: State fan called in.
- 40:59Speaker 3: She didn't know what I'm talking about. That's my first show.
- 41:03Speaker 1: I don't know who the dude.
- 41:04Speaker 3: Is either to this day.
- 41:06Speaker 1: I still don't know who he is like all the time.
- 41:08Speaker 1: This man said, you probably holla out. Florida State, will
- 41:16Speaker 1: you fuck your bitch? Because I want to fight this
- 41:21Speaker 1: man so bad. I'm like, yo, what is he doing?
- 41:26Speaker 1: I've never done this before. And mind you, too, I
- 41:28Speaker 1: listened to the show before. I've never heard such disrespect.
- 41:32Speaker 2: I was like.
- 41:34Speaker 6: Yo, what is this?
- 41:35Speaker 1: Did somebody set him up to talk to me? Like,
- 41:37Speaker 1: what is wrong with bro?
- 41:38Speaker 2: Oh, my God. You want me to do that shit.
- 41:39Speaker 1: Like yesterday, bro? And y'all ain't, and y'all, he's going
- 41:41Speaker 1: to laugh until I even finish. Y'all ain't gonna be blessed, man.
- 41:45Speaker 1: Y'all better find him in the dog pool, boy. They
- 41:49Speaker 1: better come to the altar and repent, man. He ain't
- 41:52Speaker 1: had taught me like that. He taught me real bad, man.
- 41:54Speaker 1: I remember that shit like, yes, it came out of nowhere. Yeah,
- 41:57Speaker 1: I was like, what is this? And I'm new, so
- 42:00Speaker 1: I'm like, can I cut some slack?
- 42:02Speaker 3: We was playing at the two-room, like our first live show,
- 42:04Speaker 3: our first live call.
- 42:05Speaker 1: Yeah, it was our first call-in. It was our first call-in.
- 42:07Speaker 1: I was like, I don't know if I should fight.
- 42:10Speaker 2: I guess.
- 42:11Speaker 1: I got to take that one? Oh, man.
- 42:13Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. Y'all fine.
- 42:14Speaker 1: Y'all tell him Hitler ain't up to say he's sorry, man.
- 42:17Speaker 2: Yeah, and all it took was two more weeks, and
- 42:19Speaker 2: then you ran into me, your arch nemesis. I am Dr.
- 42:22Speaker 2: Doom to your Mr. Fantastic right now. And this was reversed.
- 42:26Speaker 2: This was reversed not even three years ago. I don't
- 42:28Speaker 2: understand what the hell happened. But I'm going to tell
- 42:30Speaker 2: you this right now, bro. Y'all better do the Lord's work.
- 42:33Speaker 2: I promise you y'all better do the Lord's work, bro.
- 42:35Speaker 2: There is no way that y'all– this is what made
- 42:38Speaker 2: me more mad than anything, all right? I know for
- 42:41Speaker 2: a fact that in the practices down there in Coral Gables,
- 42:45Speaker 2: that they have legitimately said, we are trying to get
- 42:48Speaker 2: Heisman numbers for our players. I know that this has
- 42:52Speaker 2: been said. I was told that they are going to
- 42:54Speaker 2: try to get your wide receiver Heisman-level numbers in this game.
- 42:59Speaker 2: I said, oh, hell.
- 43:01Speaker 1: Let's listen to that shit, though.
- 43:02Speaker 3: Like, bro.
- 43:03Speaker 1: I got him for a buck, seven.
- 43:05Speaker 3: But this guy, Florida State, Florida game, like, hey, bro. Like,
- 43:10Speaker 3: we know Dalvin Cook did his damn thing, but Jim
- 43:12Speaker 3: Boyd come, hey, this one of them games.
- 43:16Speaker 1: Right.
- 43:16Speaker 3: I could never go into a Florida State-Miami game and say, hey,
- 43:20Speaker 3: that's that game for you, bro.
- 43:22Speaker 1: I'm going to win any way I can, right?
- 43:24Speaker 2: That's crazy as hell. Bro, they legitimately are like, oh,
- 43:28Speaker 2: this FSU, okay, we're going to try to get Menta
- 43:30Speaker 2: about five touchdowns. We're going to try to get Malachi
- 43:33Speaker 2: Tony 200 yards. They're trying to have– I expect him
- 43:36Speaker 2: to get 15 targets. I expect them to try– they're
- 43:39Speaker 2: going to try to get him a buck 70, 200.
- 43:40Speaker 2: They're trying to put up Heisman-level numbers for this man.
- 43:44Speaker 2: They want him to get Jeremiah Smith-level praise after this game.
- 43:49Speaker 2: And the fact that they're looking at a rivalry game,
- 43:51Speaker 2: one of the biggest rivalry games in all of college sports,
- 43:54Speaker 2: or what should be, It just shows you how far
- 43:57Speaker 2: Mike Norvell has this program in the tanks.
- 43:59Speaker 1: I tried to get him to make it homecoming.
- 44:03Speaker 2: But he shot me down. I remember laughing. Y'all had
- 44:06Speaker 2: more recruits than fans in the stands. I could just
- 44:09Speaker 2: remember all of the comments that I was making. And
- 44:12Speaker 2: then as soon as I got the notification that this
- 44:14Speaker 2: was up, I was like, you know, let me click
- 44:15Speaker 2: in here real quick. Oh, Lord, he got Larry on.
- 44:18Speaker 2: I know he's going to be smiling. Well, not even
- 44:20Speaker 2: a half smile. You can see all his teeth when
- 44:22Speaker 2: he's smiling. That's how happy he is right now. Look
- 44:26Speaker 2: at him. I'm in a good place. I'm in a
- 44:28Speaker 2: good place, man. I'm in a good place. We're going
- 44:31Speaker 2: to see what we can do, man. You know, what
- 44:32Speaker 2: a time to be alive. Well, I got, you know,
- 44:35Speaker 2: we thank y'all for, you know, the 4th and 14.
- 44:39Speaker 4: You know, we thank Debo for that ass who he
- 44:42Speaker 4: issued out those years ago.
- 44:44Speaker 1: And look at Dabo now. They're going to score 30
- 44:46Speaker 1: on everybody.
- 44:47Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 44:48Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
- 44:49Speaker 4: Talk that talk now. It's a different talk now. It's
- 44:51Speaker 4: a different bass in his voice that wasn't there before.
- 44:53Speaker 3: Dabo got a completely different bass, bro. I'm going to say,
- 44:57Speaker 3: they're going to score 30 on everybody? Nah, bro.
- 45:00Speaker 1: At least 30 on everybody.
- 45:01Speaker 2: Nah, bro. Don't put it on everybody, bro.
- 45:04Speaker 1: What Manny said with App State, they do that to everybody.
- 45:07Speaker 1: They do that to everybody. They'll come to me with
- 45:13Speaker 1: that shit like, oh, it's just me. Nah, this is
- 45:17Speaker 1: what they do.
- 45:18Speaker 4: And then, you know, now we got Florida State fans
- 45:20Speaker 4: begging us to just put them out their misery, man.
- 45:23Speaker 2: I ain't begging you for not a damn thing. I
- 45:24Speaker 2: ain't begging you.
- 45:25Speaker 1: You ain't got to.
- 45:26Speaker 2: The rest of them, man. I'm going to still go
- 45:27Speaker 2: out here and chop. I'm going to cry while I'm chopping.
- 45:30Speaker 2: I'll tell you that right now. I'm going to be
- 45:32Speaker 2: over here crying. I'm going to be mad. I'm sitting
- 45:34Speaker 2: in my– I already got everything I need. My coolest
- 45:37Speaker 2: stock full of some of the finest private stock that
- 45:40Speaker 2: I could find out here. Because I plan on being– listen,
- 45:42Speaker 2: here's how I know that the football gods are looking
- 45:44Speaker 2: at me sideways. For all the mouth running that I've
- 45:48Speaker 2: been doing out here. They place this game at 7
- 45:50Speaker 2: o'clock at night. I say, are you serious? I know
- 45:54Speaker 2: you ain't going to do me like this. At least
- 45:55Speaker 2: let me get the game over at noon, bro. Let
- 45:58Speaker 2: me get it over early.
- 46:00Speaker 1: You want the same thing?
- 46:02Speaker 2: Let me get this over with, but no, I got
- 46:04Speaker 2: to go and watch actual college football games, competitive college
- 46:07Speaker 2: football games, and then that's going to lead up to
- 46:10Speaker 2: that garbage at night. So the last thing I have
- 46:12Speaker 2: to see before I close my eyes and go to
- 46:15Speaker 2: bed at night is an absolute ass whooping of my
- 46:18Speaker 2: favorite program at the hands of a team that don't
- 46:22Speaker 2: even play in the city that they named after. They
- 46:24Speaker 2: don't even play in Miami. Y'all play in Coral Gables.
- 46:28Speaker 2: Y'all play in Miami Gardens. That ain't even the way
- 46:30Speaker 2: y'all play yet. Y'all about to say you're playing my regards.
- 46:32Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah. This is terrible.
- 46:35Speaker 4: You know, hey, what goes around comes around. Um, y'all,
- 46:39Speaker 4: y'all time to be here again, uh, in some time. Hey,
- 46:42Speaker 4: I put this much out there for you. I hope
- 46:44Speaker 4: that you can, um, go ahead and get back before
- 46:47Speaker 4: Florida does. I'll give you that much of a blessing.
- 46:49Speaker 4: I hope that really does happen. Uh, I don't like
- 46:52Speaker 4: none of them.
- 46:53Speaker 1: Um, At least it's respect.
- 46:55Speaker 4: Because, you know, you called us Doom and Mr. Fantastic.
- 46:59Speaker 4: And I can rock with that. Because that's always been
- 47:01Speaker 4: a respectful beef. That's Florida State and Miami to me.
- 47:05Speaker 4: It's respect beef.
- 47:06Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, it's respect. It's respect. Y'all can play anybody anytime,
- 47:10Speaker 2: just like we do. I mean, we take y'all off
- 47:12Speaker 2: the schedule. We ain't going to run from no smoke. Nah, yeah, yeah.
- 47:14Speaker 2: We stay ready. You know, we don't even have to
- 47:16Speaker 2: bring up other programs that told me that they said
- 47:19Speaker 2: they were the 2019 LSU Tigers, and I'm not even
- 47:22Speaker 2: going to talk about the lies that was told about
- 47:24Speaker 2: that program. They can go sit their ass down somewhere.
- 47:26Speaker 2: We talking about good old school, just this is, I
- 47:29Speaker 2: can't even, I'm not even happy about what's happening here
- 47:32Speaker 2: right now. This is terrible.
- 47:33Speaker 1: Do you hear this, CJ?
- 47:34Speaker 2: The man is out here giving us giving us respect
- 47:38Speaker 2: right now.
- 47:38Speaker 3: Can you believe this?
- 47:41Speaker 4: He is concerned for our program right now. I work
- 47:44Speaker 4: with all of y'all. They're everywhere. I'm in Florida. I
- 47:48Speaker 4: got a lot of Florida State friends. I ain't seen
- 47:50Speaker 4: them boys smile on the set in a long time.
- 47:52Speaker 4: A lot of pumpkin patches and fall festivals. The kids
- 47:58Speaker 4: got something going on. Things that were just sacrilege in
- 48:02Speaker 4: the time when I was growing up. You would cut
- 48:05Speaker 4: your kids out. Time to go do something on Saturday, man.
- 48:08Speaker 3: A bunch of wins.
- 48:09Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.
- 48:10Speaker 1: Man, all right, bro. Play with somebody else. Yep.
- 48:15Speaker 2: Life's different. I'm out of this stuff. It'll get better.
- 48:18Speaker 1: It'll get better, man. I miss a good rivalry. You know,
- 48:22Speaker 1: we got to play them whack-ass Gators and beat their
- 48:24Speaker 1: ass two years in a row, all that talk.
- 48:27Speaker 4: And, you know, things have been down. So we only
- 48:30Speaker 4: got y'all at this point anyways. And so I need
- 48:33Speaker 4: us to get back before we go to the Big Ten.
- 48:36Speaker 1: Like, CJ, you know what I feel? The Big Ten,
- 48:38Speaker 1: this man. And he's just twisting it now. You know
- 48:40Speaker 1: what's wild about this, CJ?
- 48:41Speaker 3: You know what this feel like?
- 48:43Speaker 2: You know what this feel like?
- 48:44Speaker 1: This feel like that scene in New Jack City where
- 48:48Speaker 1: Nino Brown walk up to G-Money and he just give
- 48:51Speaker 1: him the hug and he crying.
- 48:52Speaker 2: Like, that's what this feel like. Like, the University of
- 48:55Speaker 2: Coral Gables Hershey's just walked up to us and gave
- 48:58Speaker 2: us the hug with the tear coming down their eye
- 49:01Speaker 2: because they know they about to go ahead and let
- 49:03Speaker 2: one lose something. I'm going to go ahead and say it, Larry. CMB.
- 49:08Speaker 2: We all we got.
- 49:10Speaker 1: We all we got.
- 49:12Speaker 2: We all we got. My brother's keeper.
- 49:15Speaker 1: Doing us a big favor.
- 49:20Speaker 2: Oh, man.
- 49:20Speaker 1: We're going to do what we got.
- 49:21Speaker 4: To do, man.
- 49:22Speaker 2: I mean, damn. I'm over here on my knees right now.
- 49:24Speaker 2: I got an S curl. I got the. The finger
- 49:28Speaker 2: rings on my arm and the sling because I can't
- 49:32Speaker 2: figure out that Ice-T not infiltrated our whole organization. That's
- 49:36Speaker 2: what Mike Novelli is. He is Ice-T and he not
- 49:39Speaker 2: infiltrated our whole organization right now. And we need to
- 49:42Speaker 2: get his ass out of here. That's who he is.
- 49:44Speaker 2: That's who he is. Washington, that's his name. We need
- 49:48Speaker 2: to get him up out of here, bro. So I'm
- 49:49Speaker 2: going to say this before I get out of here, bro.
- 49:51Speaker 2: I'm always glad to see y'all boys together. Whenever y'all
- 49:55Speaker 2: pulling up together, I'm always on here. Just do the
- 49:58Speaker 2: Lord's work, bro. Just do the Lord's work. The only
- 50:01Speaker 2: way we're going to fix this, just like the only
- 50:03Speaker 2: way y'all got y'all program fixed was after we had
- 50:06Speaker 2: them put belt to ass and then Kirk Herbstree had
- 50:08Speaker 2: to go on game day and alert your admin that
- 50:11Speaker 2: they weren't paying attention to the football program. Then they
- 50:13Speaker 2: got it in gear. I just need y'all to go
- 50:15Speaker 2: ahead and do what y'all need to do. Do the
- 50:17Speaker 2: Lord's work. I'm still going to root for my nose.
- 50:19Speaker 2: We owe you one. I just need somebody to come
- 50:22Speaker 2: up here and just let it be known. Just go
- 50:25Speaker 2: ahead and put that embarrassing L that we about to
- 50:28Speaker 2: take up there on the board and let us go
- 50:30Speaker 2: on to Clemson and see if Dabo going to do
- 50:32Speaker 2: the same thing. See if Dabo going to do the
- 50:35Speaker 2: same thing. Louisville already done did it. Now we got Miami.
- 50:38Speaker 3: You told us midget contest right there, boy.
- 50:41Speaker 1: What a hell of a game that's going to be.
- 50:43Speaker 1: That's going to be an ugly game, boy.
- 50:45Speaker 3: Yes, sir.
- 50:47Speaker 1: Oh, my God. Who wants to lose the worst?
- 50:51Speaker 2: This is terrible. I can't believe this, but either way,
- 50:55Speaker 2: it's go-nose. All love. CJ, Larry, I love y'all boys, man. Cheers, brother.
- 50:59Speaker 1: Likewise, bro.
- 51:00Speaker 3: Appreciate you, KP.
- 51:01Speaker 1: All right, guys.
- 51:02Speaker 3: We got about 200-something people hanging out. Make sure you
- 51:05Speaker 3: guys hit that like button, hit that subscribe button. We
- 51:07Speaker 3: got Coy.
- 51:08Speaker 2: Coy, you on deck?
- 51:12Speaker 1: You're muted if you're still there. COE, content over everything. Hey,
- 51:20Speaker 1: I like that. I think I get that from Bud.
- 51:24Speaker 1: I think they be doing that.
- 51:26Speaker 4: Man, you said 9-3, right? You think you got 9-3 talent.
- 51:30Speaker 4: My question is, do you feel like you got the depth?
- 51:34Speaker 4: What spot do you feel like you got depth?
- 51:37Speaker 1: Shit.
- 51:40Speaker 3: Running back and– Running back and probably– yeah, running back, really.
- 51:44Speaker 3: That's probably about it. I'm confident even from a depth standpoint.
- 51:46Speaker 4: I like you pretty decent wide receiver starter-wise. It kind
- 51:52Speaker 4: of falls off. And then I just like– maybe you
- 51:55Speaker 4: can answer this for me too real quick while we're
- 51:57Speaker 4: kind of hanging out still. What's going on with dudes?
- 52:00Speaker 4: Like why they can't find them the ball this year?
- 52:02Speaker 4: Is it just Ashton's inability to link up with them?
- 52:06Speaker 3: I think it's a combination of that, Ashton– Ben Asher,
- 52:10Speaker 3: dude's not ready. He looked checked out on the foot,
- 52:12Speaker 3: to be honest with you.
- 52:13Speaker 1: I kind of see that.
- 52:14Speaker 4: I saw that in that last game, because I'm like, damn, bro,
- 52:17Speaker 4: he's just like, yeah, all right, man.
- 52:19Speaker 1: I'm just killing grass out here, dude.
- 52:20Speaker 3: Killing grass, going through the motion. Like, if you look at, like,
- 52:23Speaker 3: the full 22 versus a lot of players where he.
- 52:27Speaker 1: Like, kind of low for him. No, no, not necessarily.
- 52:30Speaker 3: That is just the fact that he's running hard on
- 52:31Speaker 3: certain routes, and there he just.
- 52:34Speaker 1: Hasn't been getting all the way up. Yeah, it ain't connected.
- 52:36Speaker 3: But maybe a situation to where he's like, man, shit,
- 52:38Speaker 3: I'm just tired of it or whatever. Now, he has
- 52:40Speaker 3: been dropping damn balls as well, too. He hasn't been
- 52:42Speaker 3: consistent with that, and that could be a focus thing, too.
- 52:44Speaker 3: And also, I don't think Micah's doing a good enough
- 52:46Speaker 3: job of featuring him, bro. Moving him around, getting him
- 52:49Speaker 3: the ball in certain areas. Everything we kind of do
- 52:53Speaker 3: is deep to the outside. Use the third field as well, too.
- 52:57Speaker 3: Deuce can do it all as far as the route tree.
- 52:59Speaker 3: He's not like a I don't want to say Johnny
- 53:03Speaker 3: Wilson because he's better than Johnny, of course. But you
- 53:05Speaker 3: know how you get the stigma of a 6'7 receiver, 6'6,
- 53:08Speaker 3: and you just want to throw deep. Yeah, just put
- 53:10Speaker 3: it on high, right, and just let it go. So
- 53:13Speaker 3: I think it's a combination of that. Mike Norvell not
- 53:16Speaker 3: really doing a good job of featuring him and putting
- 53:17Speaker 3: him in spots to get the ball. Quarterback plays being terrible.
- 53:21Speaker 3: And him kind of being checked out as well, too.
- 53:23Speaker 3: But it's sad to see because I don't know. Man,
- 53:25Speaker 3: Deuce is fucking talented, but I really think he has
- 53:26Speaker 3: first year. I know.
- 53:27Speaker 1: They was talking first, second round. Does he have another
- 53:30Speaker 1: year eligibility? He does. He does because, you know, that new,
- 53:33Speaker 1: which he might fucking have to come back. Right, that
- 53:36Speaker 1: fifth year thing.
- 53:37Speaker 3: Technically, he would be four or not, but since they
- 53:40Speaker 3: got that five-year rule, he could play one more.
- 53:43Speaker 1: So, we'll see.
- 53:45Speaker 4: I think it's Stockton who won the tank, so I
- 53:46Speaker 4: feel like he's got to come back. But then the
- 53:48Speaker 4: question is, will he return to Florida State?
- 53:51Speaker 1: Right.
- 53:51Speaker 4: Something has to be drastically different, I think, for him
- 53:54Speaker 4: to stay there. I think he's doing himself a service
- 53:57Speaker 4: to do one more year.
- 53:58Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 53:58Speaker 1: And then try to get his stock back up to
- 54:00Speaker 1: where it should have been.
- 54:01Speaker 3: But, again, that goes back to the quarterback as well, too, man.
- 54:04Speaker 3: That's why I feel like Dwayne McCoy made the right decision. Like,
- 54:07Speaker 3: once he seen lag where them boys kind of leave,
- 54:10Speaker 3: he said, man, let me go to Louisville, this, that,
- 54:12Speaker 3: and third, a proven coach that can do certain things
- 54:15Speaker 3: from an offensive standpoint.
- 54:17Speaker 1: Right, right.
- 54:19Speaker 3: Now, I know we paid Deuce a hefty damn penny
- 54:20Speaker 3: to stay this, that, and third and all that type
- 54:22Speaker 3: of thing. He definitely got paid and rightfully so.
- 54:24Speaker 6: Mm-hmm.
- 54:24Speaker 3: But he's loyal to Florida State, man. Just being a
- 54:27Speaker 3: legacy kid in that type of deal. Once I see him.
- 54:30Speaker 4: I'm like, this is business, Jack. Sometimes you got to,
- 54:33Speaker 4: you know. Hey, I look at it like this, man.
- 54:35Speaker 4: You go get the Florida State tattoo, cheer for him
- 54:37Speaker 4: every week.
- 54:38Speaker 1: All that. All that's good.
- 54:40Speaker 4: At a point, it becomes my career.
- 54:44Speaker 1: So it gets to a point where no matter who
- 54:46Speaker 1: it is.
- 54:46Speaker 4: I wasn't mad at guys that left Miami for greener
- 54:49Speaker 4: grasses at the time.
- 54:50Speaker 1: I'm like, hey, man, listen. You could be a fan anytime.
- 54:53Speaker 1: This is business. This is business.
- 54:56Speaker 3: Because you only get these three, four, five years.
- 54:59Speaker 1: Right.
- 55:00Speaker 3: You only get that once.
- 55:01Speaker 1: That could determine the rest of your life. The rest
- 55:03Speaker 1: of your life. Jokes aside, I really think he's a talented.
- 55:09Speaker 2: Kid.
- 55:09Speaker 4: I felt the sting of like, damn, he's struggling. As
- 55:12Speaker 4: a matter of fact, I had him on my prize.
- 55:15Speaker 1: Pick against Louisville. Put him down for a measly 50.
- 55:18Speaker 1: I said, he got to get 50 on that secondary? Yeah.
- 55:21Speaker 1: I was like, on this secondary, he got to give
- 55:23Speaker 1: me a little 50 yards. I ain't being greedy.
- 55:25Speaker 4: I ain't even say 75. I said, bro, he can
- 55:27Speaker 4: get 50 in two to three catches. I know he
- 55:29Speaker 4: can get that. Man, he had like 14, I think,
- 55:32Speaker 4: something like that. Something insane.
- 55:33Speaker 3: Right, bro, 14.
- 55:35Speaker 4: Yeah, that speaks volumes, honestly, about when you got your
- 55:39Speaker 4: best guys out there and you can't figure out no
- 55:42Speaker 4: way to feature them and get them going outside of,
- 55:44Speaker 4: you know, Cromer's been able to, you know, shine. and
- 55:46Speaker 4: do his thing, but then they key in on him,
- 55:48Speaker 4: and it's like, all right, well, here's your opportunity to
- 55:50Speaker 4: open up the passing game, and it just ain't clicking.
- 55:53Speaker 4: And part of it is definitely Ashton Daniels, but desperate
- 55:56Speaker 4: times call for desperate measures, so they just took what
- 55:58Speaker 4: they could get, honestly.
- 56:00Speaker 6: Right.
- 56:00Speaker 1: They really did, but again, you get who you pay for. Right,
- 56:03Speaker 1: they blew it in other aspects. Right, but you raise
- 56:07Speaker 1: some people's time.
- 56:07Speaker 3: You bring in two quarterbacks right before you even get Ashton,
- 56:10Speaker 3: two quarterbacks who Wanted to be at Florida State. Like,
- 56:14Speaker 3: the boys wanted to be at Florida State. Like, the
- 56:16Speaker 3: first visit. They wanted to be in and out.
- 56:18Speaker 1: Right.
- 56:19Speaker 3: But you, when it comes to the money talk, you
- 56:21Speaker 3: come with some fucking bullshit, bro. And you look at
- 56:26Speaker 3: what you guys pay with.
- 56:27Speaker 1: 8 mil?
- 56:27Speaker 3: Y'all pay Mensa 8? 6 to 8? I don't know.
- 56:30Speaker 4: I think, yeah, I think it might be about 6.
- 56:32Speaker 4: Because Carson got 6 last year. So, he's probably in
- 56:35Speaker 4: that neighborhood.
- 56:36Speaker 3: Bet got 6 last year. You get 6 to 8
- 56:37Speaker 3: from Mensa this year. Fucking LSU paying 10 for... 11,
- 56:43Speaker 3: he's terrible. Just the market, bro. You come in, it's
- 56:48Speaker 3: nowhere in hell you want to offer somebody less than
- 56:50Speaker 3: the mil.
- 56:51Speaker 2: Less than the mil.
- 56:52Speaker 1: At QB? That's crazy. Upper classman QB?
- 56:56Speaker 3: Offer less than the mil. So you offer less than
- 56:58Speaker 3: the mil, you get less than the mil damn product.
- 57:01Speaker 3: You feel me?
- 57:03Speaker 4: You can't do that, man. Again, you got to work
- 57:06Speaker 4: the budget. You got to work the budget, but A1
- 57:10Speaker 4: on that list? It's like, all right, I got it.
- 57:13Speaker 1: So you can get that, and you probably pay your
- 57:14Speaker 1: running back. You probably pay him a little bit more
- 57:17Speaker 1: than the running back that you bring in when everyone healthy.
- 57:21Speaker 1: He was third in the damn depth chart.
- 57:22Speaker 5: Right.
- 57:23Speaker 4: I was about to say, and he's not even that
- 57:24Speaker 4: big a contributor. So, again, it's your valuations and the
- 57:29Speaker 4: way you're dispensing the money. You got to know where
- 57:31Speaker 4: you're spending it, who you're spending it with. It's got
- 57:32Speaker 4: to make sense at the end of the day. It's
- 57:35Speaker 4: been poorly mismanaged for I don't know how long. You
- 57:39Speaker 4: got Novell, but before Novell, you got Willie. Ever since
- 57:41Speaker 4: the money.
- 57:41Speaker 3: Really became a factor, so ever since the money really
- 57:45Speaker 3: became a factor in the portal, that's when that shit
- 57:47Speaker 3: became out of his realm. When I say really became
- 57:50Speaker 3: a factor, cats getting millions of dollars.
- 57:52Speaker 1: Yeah, when the money started, yeah, really going up.
- 57:54Speaker 3: Yeah, you get praised in the beginning eras, like Jay Travnum,
- 57:57Speaker 3: you give the boys a few hundred thousand, this, that,
- 57:59Speaker 3: and the third, we good. Bro, we had fucking Jerry Verse.
- 58:03Speaker 3: This bitch had a damn Nissan fucking deal. Where's the
- 58:05Speaker 3: motherfucker riding around in a fucking... It wasn't even a Titan, bro.
- 58:08Speaker 3: What's the shit lower than a damn Titan?
- 58:10Speaker 1: Like, no. Jad fucking Verse? This is a first-round damn
- 58:14Speaker 1: draft pick. They ain't driving a fucking Nissan truck, bro.
- 58:19Speaker 1: I know DVD had, like, a BMW deal. DVD had
- 58:22Speaker 1: a nice-ass deal. Nice little people running around.
- 58:26Speaker 3: Bro, like, this is in comparison, dog, to where, like,
- 58:28Speaker 3: if we would have had a situation to where it
- 58:30Speaker 3: would have been, you know, Braden Fish, Jad, Verse, Keon Coleman,
- 58:34Speaker 3: Trey Benson, all of those guys like during this era,
- 58:37Speaker 3: he wouldn't have, we wouldn't have had that 22, 23
- 58:41Speaker 3: success in my opinion because we're being priced out and
- 58:43Speaker 3: he wouldn't have been able to compete with the money
- 58:47Speaker 3: and let alone allocate the money in certain positions. He
- 58:50Speaker 3: was the forefront of the portal. They call him, you know,
- 58:52Speaker 3: the portal king, this and that when that shit was
- 58:54Speaker 3: brand new. He ain't, when that shit started adapting and real,
- 58:59Speaker 3: real play started being made in the portal, that's when
- 59:01Speaker 3: we kind of got surpassed. So I say, all that
- 59:03Speaker 3: to say this, like, if we would have got that
- 59:05Speaker 3: early crop during today's time, man, Michael would have probably
- 59:08Speaker 3: been fired way earlier than, you know, he wouldn't have
- 59:11Speaker 3: got that grace for another post-torture.
- 59:13Speaker 1: That wouldn't have put him over the top like that, but.
- 59:16Speaker 7: Not at all.
- 59:17Speaker 3: We're going to wrap this show up. Make sure you
- 59:19Speaker 3: guys hit that like and subscribe button. Appreciate you all
- 59:21Speaker 3: for hanging out. Any last thoughts, bro?
- 59:25Speaker 1: Nah, man.
- 59:26Speaker 4: Just, you know, let y'all know, man, my thoughts and
- 59:28Speaker 4: prayers with you in the program. I'm out of jokes
- 59:31Speaker 4: at this point. Get right, man.
- 59:34Speaker 1: And find bro. Find bro. Find him. Whoever he was.
- 59:39Speaker 1: Somebody got no weird.
- 59:40Speaker 2: He ain't no weird.
- 59:41Speaker 4: If you're watching this now, you come to me humbly.
- 59:43Speaker 4: I might have you muted already. That probably would be
- 59:45Speaker 4: the problem. Get a burner account and tell me I
- 59:48Speaker 4: apologize humbly, man, and we'll make it all right, man.
- 59:52Speaker 1: I remember that. As soon as you said that, I
- 59:54Speaker 1: knew exactly what that was. Bust out laughing.
- 59:57Speaker 2: Oh, man. Hey, like you said, first day of work,
- 1:00:01Speaker 2: I'm looking for help.
