• 0:46
  Speaker 5: for the whole segment. I gotta wear my hat one
• 0:49

• 1:14
  Speaker 5: And I've been wearing sunglasses so like thhich are great
• 1:17
  Speaker 5: by the way, I mean they figure head with it came.
• 1:20
  Speaker 5: It came in a plastic bag. So I don't know,
• 1:23
  Speaker 5: Like you know what's funny about sunglasses. If you buy
• 1:27
  Speaker 5: an expensive pair of sunglasses, you buy some like ray
• 1:30
  Speaker 5: bands or some coasters or something, you lose them within
• 1:34
  Speaker 5: a couple of months. Now this Marlar gave the sent
• 1:36
  Speaker 5: me in a plastic bag. I will have these for
• 1:39
  Speaker 5: five years probably like these like the cheap sunglasses you
• 1:43
  Speaker 5: have forever.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: No.
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: See, the funny thing is what you didn't hear. Marlar
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: gave them to you, I think to check out. You
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: took it upon yourself to take them out of the
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: plastic and put them on, and then you're like, hey,
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: thanks for these. He goes, actually those are for me,
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: And then like I saw him realizing real time that
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: he will wasn't getting them back, and he kind of
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: like dropped his head like he was sad. But I'm like, Marlar,
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: you're not getting those bag Bud, those are now Flynns.
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: Those are property of Matthew. Those are actually like nice,
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: these belong to me.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: Now, I don't know.
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: So the SEC has like a table like over the
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: back way, like where the meals and stuff are. That's
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: like kind of like a taste of the SEC. Like
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: every SEC town like brought something to try like represent them.
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: I'm a little disappointed in Baton Rouge. It gave like
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: stickers of like yeah, like of Louisiana and like two
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: to five and like for as much culture as we have,
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: like you gave stickers.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: We could have given away my high.
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: It could have given my high. That would have been
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: perfect right there, like something like a Cajun seasoning or something,
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Yeah.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: Something like a sticker. We're not known for our stickers.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: No, I was very disappointed about There are.
• 2:52
  Speaker 5: Some companies that make fine stickers the best, Yeah, but
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: we're not. We're not the sticker capital of the world.
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: Speaking speaking of like being back in that situation, I
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: forgot to mention this earlier. Will Stein's mom baked all
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: of us at Serious XM a little bunch cake. Oh
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: stop it swear to get a little bunch cake.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: Look, I'll show you.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: I got this great packaging house. Well is that it
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: was very fun. Look them Kentucky Wildcats. Here's to a
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: great twenty twenty sixth season. Will Stein from Cissy cakes. Yeah,
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: city cakes. Yeah, he passed them out. I was like,
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: look at you, lady. Very nice of her, that is
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: very nice.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: Thank you. So are y'all a fan of she wants?
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: I've been a fan of Will. She's trying to she
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: wants big good pub Probably so.
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: And I don't mind a mom stepping in and trying
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: to bribe national media. I'm okay with that.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: Absolutely. I'm a fan of Will can be used correctly.
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: I'm a fan of Will because of what he said yesterday.
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: But like that's what like again, it's not an arrogance,
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: it's a confidence, like, hey, well's can be the reason
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: Kentucky you win me.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And it depends how you delivered the statement.
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: I thought you delivered it well.
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: I did too when I just when I heard it
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: and I read it, you saw I saw it on
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: Twitter like this is what he said.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: I was like, he took his time. Okay, that could be.
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: That could go you know, one of two ways.
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: I guess, Yeah, it could go really well, or you
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: can just be like you're you're a cocky prick.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: Pretty much.
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: No for sure, but I think seeing the answer, knowing
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: him a little bit, I think he thought about it
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: it wasn't like it was just like he thought about it,
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: he didn't want to say it, and then he's like me,
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: I'm the reason I liked it. Yeah, all right, Before
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: we move on to the Auburn Tigers, want to remind
• 4:42

• 5:17
  Speaker 3: to the Auburn Tigers. Another team that is here today. Now,
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: the Auburn Tigers. Matthew, when we were playing college football,
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: like they were a team that was kind of, you know,
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: one of the standards I would say, I mean.
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: Actually to me, you know how LSU, you know, the
• 5:31
  Speaker 5: rival kind of switches a lot depending on the current
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: state of college football and the SEC blah blah blah.
• 5:36
  Speaker 5: We like when we were when I was getting recruited Auburn,
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: was it like that was most of the highlight films
• 5:43
  Speaker 5: that they show.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: I number ones like that that one. Now it changed
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: when we were there to Florida.
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but like I would say, like one, O, two three,
• 5:52
  Speaker 5: like that was Auburn was like the big, the big
• 5:55
  Speaker 5: motivational tape.
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: My freshman year. They went thirty to no. I mean,
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: so it's Auburn, right, And I never hadn't. I didn't
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: win there as a player. Now we beat them, we're
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: two and two, beat them at home, lost him on
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: the road. I wasn't able to celebrate a victory against
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: them until, like I guess it would have been twenty
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: eighteen when Cole Tracy hit that kick. That was the
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: first time I ever celebrated a victory in that stadium.
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: It wasn't for me either playing or covering football. So
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: it was it was a great game. They were a
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: great program. It has not been great as of late.
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: Let's take you back to twenty twenty. All right, they
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: go six and five. Let's go to twenty twenty one,
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: there's six and seven overall, three and five in the SEC.
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: Twenty twenty two they're five and seven, two and six
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: in the SEC. Let's go to twenty twenty three, six
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: and seven, three and five in the SEC, twenty twenty four,
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: five and seven, two and six in the SEC. Last
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: year twenty twenty five, five and seven, one and seven
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: in the SEC. So when you go all the way
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: back to twenty twenty one, we're talking about the last
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: five football seasons, Auburn football has eleven SEC wins in
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: five seasons. They're barely averaging two wins per season in
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: the SEC. That is not the Auburn football I know,
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: you know, anybody in this room knows. They got a
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: new coach. Alex Golish is coming over from South Florida.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: He brings a lot of his roster with him. I
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: do think he's a good football coach. He was the
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: OC when Tennessee came to Tiger Stadium a couple of
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: years ago, Hendon Hooker at that offense, and so he's
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: the coach.
• 7:29
  Speaker 5: That almost did Someone tried to fight him, like one
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: another head coach on the other sideline.
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: They had something happened. They had a handshake situation.
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: This feels this is tickland something. Yeah, this is Tickling's
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: like there's you know.
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: I'm strange of the things that are remembered are from
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: random games. But yeah, I think there was maybe a
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: situation with another coach that was fun. But it clicked
• 7:50
  Speaker 5: my memory because I saw him walking around. I was like,
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: is that the coach right there? Is that what I'm
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: thinking of it? I was like, I remember a handshake
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: situation with him.
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I'm looking at it. Tom Herman and Alex Golish. Okay,
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: so Tom Herman was the FAU head coach and Alex
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: Golish was the South Florida head coach. And uh yeah
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: he got a little uh little fist the cops, but
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: not really.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: I think I think he got a big dog him too,
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: big dog Herman.
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah got Tom Herman.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: Whoa what a name? That once got him? Thank god
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: we didn't wait, we almost got him over bright Kell.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: Was that no? That cycle?
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: No, it was coach O. Was it? Because it was
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: Jimbo Fisher and then Coach.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: O got the job? Yeah?
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: All right, thank god that didn't happen.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: Twenty nineteen would not have happened.
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: No, there's no way Tom Herman wins that. Uh, there's
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: no way. Joe Burrow, Joseph Joe would have talked to
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: Tom Herman like you go watch.
• 8:46
  Speaker 5: That clip and I will say, for Auburn with your
• 8:49
  Speaker 5: Alex Golis, you got a little dog in you like
• 8:51
  Speaker 5: he's a he's got some dog And I'm just based
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: on now you know, it's uh, we'll see how he translates.
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: But certainly had South Florida headed in the right direction.
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: So Auburn needs it needs up. You just you just
• 9:05
  Speaker 5: said over the last filet think about it. SEC wins
• 9:09
  Speaker 5: in five season two point Yeah, that's what two point
• 9:11
  Speaker 5: two wins in the SEC per year like that is.
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: That's not Auburn football that we know. So can they
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: get them back, Well, it's going to take a h
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: in this world and the NIL college football. Yeah, you
• 9:24
  Speaker 5: can get back real fast, but it can also, you know,
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: kind of work against you, especially in the SEC when
• 9:30
  Speaker 5: you have so many rivals and competitors competing for the
• 9:33
  Speaker 5: same recruits with the same budget or bigger budget than
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: you have.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: So it can go one of two ways.
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: You can like Indiana, they did it, but it's a
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: very What Indiana did is a very unfair compe to
• 9:48
  Speaker 5: everybody else.
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: And everybody's gonna use it though.
• 9:51
  Speaker 5: Everybody's gonna use it, but it's completely unfair. So yeah, well, uh,
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: we'll see how it goes. But I will say, like basically,
• 9:59
  Speaker 5: watch the clip at the break. If you watched the clip,
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: he's got a little dog in him. He got a
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: little you know, Yeah, he can he can.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: Be that guy.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: I mean he was born in Russia, Moscow, Russia.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: Is that he's got some dog in him.
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: It feels like it. I mean born in Moscow, born
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: in Moscow. Golish moved to the United States when he
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: was seven, so I mean kind of grew up a
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: little bit. I mean seven. Uh, it's when you know
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: the whole Soviet Union obviously the dissolution of that. Then
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: he grew up in Brooklyn, moved to Dublin, Ohio, not Ireland,
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: and that's his upbringing. Went to Ohio State. He was
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: actually a GA at Ohio State when Bobby Carpenter and
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: AJ Hawk and that whole crew was there. And so
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: that's how I've gotten to know him a little bit.
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: But yeah, grew up in Moscow, Russia until he was seven. Wow,
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: what are those feels tough?
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: Is he like the college football version of like a
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: Russian sparrow?
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: Feels like it?
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm talking about? The else spies?
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: A Landra ask a very good question. Okay, does Golis
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: have ties to high Point? Oh summer asking? I mean,
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: it's a laundry in US.
• 11:12
  Speaker 5: Were the ones that would be it wouldn't be shocking
• 11:15
  Speaker 5: now they were uncovering that he is a Russian spy.
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's true. I think it's good for Auburn though
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: today's a Russian spy. You got some grit Eastern Europeans.
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: I mean they're kind of known for that, right yeap.
• 11:28
  Speaker 5: Female Russian operatives are often referred to as sparrows, So
• 11:32
  Speaker 5: like what if?
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: What if they're infiltrating college football?
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: Now it could be, but look, if Auburn's got to
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: find a way to win more than two SEC games
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: a year, maybe it's bringing in a Russian spy.
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: But I mean, what are you going to do?
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. You know, that's what those
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: people are talking.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: Till seven seventh's more?
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: I feel bad? Do you want to win? And what
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: are you willing to sacrifice?
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: To do it. Yeah, bring in a Russian patriotism. Oh
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: he really is a good coach. Th Oh for sure,
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: for sure. That's fun though. I like that. Let's get
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: a little tip. I did not know that until you
• 12:04

• 14:40
  Speaker 3: You might must stick around for this for your show.
• 14:42
  Speaker 5: Hold on, So this terminology stems from the KGB's Cold
• 14:45
  Speaker 5: War era training program. It's like it was called the
• 14:48
  Speaker 5: State School four, and it specialized in using seduction and
• 14:51
  Speaker 5: romance to extract secrets from targets, a tactic historically referred
• 14:56
  Speaker 5: to as sexpionage.
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: Yep.
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: Hunt just a quick yesterday, did you know Alex Golish
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: lived in Moscow, Russia until he was seven? Okay, see
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: lead to your show.
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: You're welcome.
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: There you go, You're welcome. Tune in at one o'clock
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: for the Hump Palmer Show. He's going to tell you
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: about red Sparrows and Alex Golish. Absolutely, I think he's
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: really gonna talk about it for sure.
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we like.
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: Actually, I'm hoping we don't get a knock at our
• 15:24
  Speaker 5: door at the hotel because don't answer. We're on to
• 15:28
  Speaker 5: the college football espionage.
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna say something or kind of ask something, and
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: it's probably gonna sound outlandish at first, but you asked
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: about Vanderbilt, like do we like them being good?
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: All right?
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: That was your question. I was like, this is Vanderbilt, like,
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: I don't I don't mind it, like they've gone through enough.
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: Is Auburn being down bad for the SEC? Because I
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: think it is.
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: Yes, Okay, Auburn being good is good for the SEC.
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: I think so as well, because that's a traditions talk.
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: Well no, no, no part you know part of it. Yes,
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: but they care deeply about it. They've got great tradition.
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: They've got an incredible stadium environment. Like I don't care
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: how bad. I don't know if you hate Alburn listening
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: out there, Jorden here is rocking at eleven am, at
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: two thirty, at six thirty, at seven thirty. It doesn't matter.
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: It's an incredible place to play, and they show up.
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: It just is I think the SEC is much better
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: when Auburn's relevant. Uh.
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: They it's absolutely like all the.
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: And they answered like to answer the question of why
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: though you just gave like the like the physical reasons,
• 16:42
  Speaker 5: like the stadium's great, great fan base, but like at
• 16:44
  Speaker 5: the heart like they are they are a core foundation
• 16:48
  Speaker 5: of the SEC. As everything grows, as the SEC grows,
• 16:51
  Speaker 5: and you know, new teams have come in, like there's
• 16:53
  Speaker 5: a there's a core group, right and they are part
• 16:55
  Speaker 5: of that core group. So yes, they the SEC is
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: absolutely better. Like as much as it pains me to say,
• 17:01
  Speaker 5: I think the same thing about Florida. I hate Florida.
• 17:05
  Speaker 5: I can't stand them. I don't like anybody that goes there.
• 17:08
  Speaker 5: And when I think about it, my skin crawls. But
• 17:12
  Speaker 5: I want them to be relevant. I want them to
• 17:15
  Speaker 5: be good at football.
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 17:16
  Speaker 5: I don't want them to be great, Hell no, I don't,
• 17:19
  Speaker 5: but do I want them to be good, just like
• 17:21
  Speaker 5: I want Auburn to be good.
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: I mean, the the Auburn Alabama game.
• 17:27
  Speaker 5: Who as LSU fans, it's still an awesome game to watch, right,
• 17:30
  Speaker 5: and just you want those teams, that core group of
• 17:33
  Speaker 5: SEC teams to always be good, always be relevant. Now
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: will they remains to be seen at some point, yeah,
• 17:40
  Speaker 5: they will at some point will go to be the
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: coach to turn them around. I don't know, we will see,
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: but they certainly cannot stay on the track that they
• 17:50
  Speaker 5: are and won in two point two games in the
• 17:52
  Speaker 5: SEC per year.
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: Just didn't even feel like right, Like doesn't even feel like.
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: There's your stickers from Baton Rouge. But that's what Baton
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: Rouge handed out, like taste of the SEC. This is
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: South Carolina. Gave sunglasses. Somebody gave popcorn.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: That's what represents us.
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: Another person gave some like granola, and that that's.
• 18:13
  Speaker 6: What Batanage gave us. Boy Yeah, like come on man, though,
• 18:18
  Speaker 6: no give out begnet. It's like our culture is too
• 18:20
  Speaker 6: good for what are we doing give out some of
• 18:23
  Speaker 6: my higher.
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: Everyone's like, oh yeah, bad race sweet Yeah stickers, man,
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: I put them on the back of their laptop.
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: People do that does Actually I did have one that
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: Harlowe put on them on forever ago. It fell off
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: respect it was like frozen or something of that nature.
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: But it fell off right that I don't know what
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: happened to us, probably hold backpack, but let it so
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: you'll appreciate this, and I'll make it quick because I
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: know our listeners don't share our same passion for sports cards.
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: I bought her uh Disney else okay, and Anna cards
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: and she she knows Dad does cards like and she's
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: to come to my office and i'd actually give her
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: a card of like myself and she like with my
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: helmet off, and she loved that. But then I got older,
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: You're like, Dad, you suck, like, get out here. I
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: don't all need that. So I got her like Elsa
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: and aunt like loves it, like she thinks like these
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: are like I got cards like that and these are mine.
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: That's cool. Yeah, doing what dad does, but it's all
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: Elsa than them.
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure, much cooler than what Dad does. Getting
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: a I.
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: Mean frozen underrated as a human male adult.
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not a it's not a it's not a
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: Theo Johnson Purple shock, but what is a.
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: Very rewatchable movie. Yeah, you're gonna have to rewatch it.
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah no, yeah, we've already gone through. I think we've
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: already gone through some of that process whe her, So
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: we've already gone through the frozen era. Speaking of a
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: frozen Shane Biemer in South Carolina kind of been frozen
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: last year. It was not a great year for them.
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: We talked a lot about their quarterback, we talked about
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: their receiver.
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: Here.
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: I love Shane Biemer. I want to get that out there.
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: I'm probably going to be a little biased in this conversation,
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: but it feels like a massive year for Shane Biemer.
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: I think he's got to win. I think Shane knows that.
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: I think Shane's a good football coach, I really do.
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: I think there's some roster limitations they have in South Carolina,
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: I like Marler pointed out, but this feels like it's
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: a big year for shit.
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: Shane Biemer on the hottest seat in the SEC.
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: Well, so you have so many new head coaches, Yeah,
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: maybe maybe it's Shane Beemer. Because let's go through the list,
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: Like Will Sein new Eli Drinkwiz just signed a new deal,
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: not going anywhere, Bren Vinnimle's new deal not going anywhere.
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: Josh Heipel's got some pressure, but he just made a
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: Coros football playoff a couple of years ago. I think
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: Josh is going to be fine, Alice Goulish New Kirby, No,
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: he's knighted. He's not going anywhere. Shane Beemer, that's a
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: guy we're talking about. Maybe, so Clark Lee not going
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: in anywhere. Klen de Bor, it's always interesting because he's
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: not Nick Saban. They made the playoff though, so we'll
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: see what that situation looks like. John Summral New, Pete
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: Golding New, Mike Elko not going anywhere, Ryan Silverfield. They'll
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: give him four years to fail before they move on
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: from him. Lane's not going anywhere. Jeff Levey, I don't.
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: I don't think. I don't think Jeff's gonna be true.
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: This is year three for Jeff Levy. Then Sark's not
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: going anywhere, So I mean Shane might be the answer now,
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: like they would have to.
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: Look really bad. I feel like for them, they would
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: have to look for de.
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: Boor yeah, yeah, and ye for both and then like Pete,
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: Like I don't I don't think Pete Golding would fall
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: into like a Will R. Nett. Hey, we're gonna give
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: you one year. Oh my god, that was disastrous, and
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: they move on from him after one year. I don't
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: think that. But since Pete doesn't have a any kind
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: of head coaching resume to fall back on. We've seen
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: wilder things happen, so maybe that's a situation there. But
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: I don't think it's going to happen anyways. But I
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: think the answer is going to be Shane because everybody
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: else is new, or they got a new deal, or
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: they built enough equity up where it's not this year,
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: maybe it's the next year. But Shane's got to win.
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: I mean, they love football in that place, that place.
• 22:04
  Speaker 5: We talked about like how over hyped Leonoris Sellers is
• 22:08
  Speaker 5: because he's got the talent, He's got this everybody loves him.
• 22:10
  Speaker 5: He played one good half of football that can work
• 22:14
  Speaker 5: against Shane Beemer. That can if they do not produce
• 22:19
  Speaker 5: as good as as much as people over hype Leonoris,
• 22:22
  Speaker 5: it's going to hurt Shane Beemer as a coach.
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: If they can't perform with him, they're.
• 22:27
  Speaker 5: Gonna be you know, the public will be like, Okay,
• 22:30
  Speaker 5: you had three years with Lenoris and you couldn't get
• 22:33
  Speaker 5: it done. That's the most talented quarterback we've had come
• 22:35
  Speaker 5: through these doors possibly ever. Yeah, and you couldn't win
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: with him, So your time's done. I think I think
• 22:42
  Speaker 5: by far, Shane Biemer has the hotest seat in the
• 22:44
  Speaker 5: SEC for those reasons. And look, I don't think he's
• 22:47
  Speaker 5: got a I mean, you can't.
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: Like my high school coach used to tell us, you
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: can't win the Kentucky Derby with munch of jackasses. So
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: I don't know if he's got.
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: The top to down roster to do that's a good line.
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: Can't win the derby with the jackass?
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: Can I still that? No? Okay, I'll sight my source. Okay,
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: then yes the first time, then it's fine. Yeah, I
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: mean I think Shane again, like if we went back
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: to it, Josh Hypel needs to you know, I think
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: shows something this year. But again he's got some equity
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: built up. Shane did have some, but I think he
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: lost that last year. I can't see another situation. You know,
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: Jeff Levy probably needs to do something this year at
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: Mississippi State, but still even that, I don't think he's
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: in any kind of danger of losing his job. And
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: so I think it is Shane.
• 23:34
  Speaker 5: Again, like to the if you have what people consider
• 23:37
  Speaker 5: a generational talent quarterback and you can't win.
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: With him, they're gonna ask the question.
• 23:41
  Speaker 5: If not, then when the questions start to get asked
• 23:44
  Speaker 5: and you lose whatever equity you built up with in
• 23:47
  Speaker 5: the Spencer Rattler area. Oh rat that Marler still a
• 23:51
  Speaker 5: choose Lenoris over rap as I call him Spence.
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: He did Collin Spence and then he lost his starting job.
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: Ye Ill bad hey, sorry.
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: Before before Shane got there, real quick, before we closed
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: the book, it was like Steve Spurrier won eleven games
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: three years in a row. South Carolina literally never done
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: anything close to that before, so he did set the
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: bar high right. Well, then must Champ takes over in
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: twenty sixteen, six and seven, nine and four, seven and six,
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: four and eight, two and eight, all right, So that
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: was Will's record at South Carolina, and then Shane comes in.
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: It's seven and six, eight and five. Then he had
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: the five and seven year and twenty twenty three and
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: everybody started asking questions. But then remember he had the
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: nine and three regular season where they ended the year
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: as hot as anybody in the country.
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: They beaton and Tennessee, right they.
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: Did, and then they lost that bowl game Illinois, I believe,
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: is who they lost to in that Citrus Bowl. So
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: they go nine and four, but still that that built
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: him up some equity, and then they went one in
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: seven in the league last y year. So overall his record,
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: he's only had a winning record in the SEC in
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty four, that one year time. That's why I
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: think that clock's running out.
• 25:12
  Speaker 5: That's why you give the history of South Carolina like
• 25:14
  Speaker 5: they just have not been even coach and his last
• 25:17
  Speaker 5: year went three and yeah, they.
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: Haven't been elite in the SEC. Yeah, you know consistently.
• 25:22
  Speaker 5: Ever, maybe they had the one, but they heat Shane
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: had that one year and with mister Ratler, and they
• 25:29
  Speaker 5: did really well and they upset some teams that one
• 25:31
  Speaker 5: games they shouldn't have, and they looked like they were
• 25:33
  Speaker 5: on this path, this trajectory that was going to make
• 25:35
  Speaker 5: them consistent. Because all of a sudden, you have that season. Yeah,
• 25:39
  Speaker 5: and then you get this quarterback that you're like, my god,
• 25:41
  Speaker 5: this guy was touched by an angel.
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: God spent a little bit more time on this one.
• 25:48
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and then after that, you can't win with them,
• 25:51
  Speaker 5: So I said, I mean, Shane was like probably really
• 25:55
  Speaker 5: excited he got Lenoris, but Lenoris could could be the
• 25:59
  Speaker 5: downfall with them.
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: That's a that's a great point actually, like, are you
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: levitating over this conversation?
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: Actually watching myself talk such.
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: A good point. I'm stealing that too a little bit
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: later on. I'll take my work on that one though,
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: all right, Like, hey, Flynn was talking quarterbacks because then
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: he gives me some cred Yeah, because like you're a quarterback.
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: I was talking about quarterbacks. He actually makes a lot
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: of sense because he's like, hey, you know their don't
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: fall be that. He's got such a good player.
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: I think he was wearing sunglasses at the time because these.
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: Backwards had all right, we're gonna step away.
• 26:31
  Speaker 5: We kind of poop pooed on south Man big We
• 26:35
  Speaker 5: didn't even plan this big time, just roll off.
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, probably because of Marlo.
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: It was Marlar looking at the cock signal a little
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: bit earlier in the show.
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: I got it.
• 26:42
  Speaker 5: Marler's right there with come put my glasses on, so
• 26:44
  Speaker 5: he knows he's not getting them back.
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: Dude, dude, not let him, big dog. You can get
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: those glasses back, No chance, I shot.
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: He to me, he's a gift.

  Speaker 1: Change it back.
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: Sorry?
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: All right, welcome back in O t B here live
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: from Tampa, Florida. Shout our guy, Billy, what's up? Sorry?
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: I ran into the commission talking to Commissioner Sankie. He
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: didn't want to talk SEC. Yeah, hey, you're on the NFL. Now,
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: how the bill's gonna be? So I'm sitting down. I
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: was like, look, I know, mass probably like panic in
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: a little bit. I was like, by the Commissioner of
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: the SEC is asking me how the bills are going
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: to be? So I got to break it down good.
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: I mean, Joe Brady's their head coach. They had the
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: leading rusher in the NFL and James Cook last year.
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: Josh Allen's a unicorn, an alien, whatever you want to
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: call him. Jimmy Leonard a teammate of both of ours.
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: You found that out on air one day. He's the
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: defensive coordinator. Now love Jim Leonard. They got a new
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: stadium in Buffalo too, that's open. It's gonna be this roof, right,
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: no roof. I believe they have like a retractable situation.
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: If I'm not mistaken either way, it's gonna be better. Look,
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: I love like the Bill's Mafia, but I played a
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: game there once where the power went out on the
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: field and they had to like do the clock in
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: the NFL game on their watch on the field and
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: there was no helmet.
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: Colm.
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: So Norm's like, hey, Jack Wright, scat right ninety nine?
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: Stop f cross. It's like, coach, they hurt you because
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: we didn't have signals, because yeah.
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: They don't know what that means. But we had to help.
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: A couple of people are dumb though.
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: It's true.
• 31:10
  Speaker 5: You could say the play out loud. That's true, very
• 31:12
  Speaker 5: very few smart ones. U.
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: I got disc gap or that gap coach, the A
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: gap or the big gap. So that's my Bobby Carpenter impersonation.
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: Okay, I'll hit the.
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: Go a gup or big gap coach.
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: Do we have some dead air for apparently we forgot
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: we were back.
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: No, So when I came back and I knew I
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: was talking into the commissioner for like a good sixty
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: seconds and I saw you talking to Looch, I was like, oh,
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: there's probably a lunge of probably like hey, dumb dumbs,
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: we're back. Ah, yeah it's me.
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: Actually that's on Leachen. It's not me.
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you're not gonna talk.
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: Oh you text me we're back, three dumbs.
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: See. I saw it on my watch and I was
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: trying to like power walk after I saw our text
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: on the watch to me because like that means Flynn
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: is not telling the people about, you know, one of
• 32:01
  Speaker 3: the great companies. I was like, maybe someone about Rouses,
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: cause I'll tell you about it right now. Go to
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: Rouses dot com. Russia dot com is a website. You're
• 32:09
  Speaker 3: gonna put in your location's gonna pull up the one
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: that's most convenient for you, and then once you do,
• 32:14
  Speaker 3: it's gonna find the weekly specials for your Rouse's store
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: and you're gonna be able to per store check out
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: what the weekly specials are. It's why we kind of
• 32:23
  Speaker 3: give it to you. But it doesn't matter which Rouses
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: you go to. It's gonna be a couple of things.
• 32:28
  Speaker 3: It's going to have local, it's going to be convenient
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: for you, and it's always going to be about you.
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: Like your experience there is going to be good. You're
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: gonna walk in, You're gonna have the breakfast bar, lunch bar,
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: a sushi bar already ready to go. You got stuff
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: like my high which you're not gonna find anywhere else.
• 32:44
  Speaker 3: It's going to be there. Like they care about the
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: local Gulf Coast community and that's why we love our
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: team over at rows. It's going to Rouses dot com today. Whoa,
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: we're back. We're back in all caps. We're back.
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: Yep. Now that's not my fault. I shouldn't trust me.
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: I can't leave me here, I thought, But I look,
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: I knew what we had as far as reads, and
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: I was like, okay, I know he can do Rouses.
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: His product is in Rouses. And again like, if the
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: Commissioner of the SEC is asking you how the Buffalo
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: bills are going to be, I had to answer them.
• 33:23
  Speaker 5: Well, Billy came up and talk to us and he
• 33:25
  Speaker 5: was talking about your guy chatty guy, oh.
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: Chatty at the end of the table.
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so I had to listen to that, you know that, Yeah,
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: you get what do you say? Nothing?
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: Nothing, just more of what we heard last night, more
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: of it. Godly, that was an experience and not like
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: a medieval times dinner experience, like a bad one.
• 33:47
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Sometimes meeting new people is great. Sometimes it's not. Yea,
• 33:52
  Speaker 5: I'll understand. Sometimes it's terrible.
• 33:55
  Speaker 3: Sometimes it's gonna.
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: Makes you appreciate the good ones.
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: Sure, that's a good point, look at the bright side
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: of it.
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: But there's a greater good. There's a greater evil. All right.
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: So Auburn, Georgia, South Carolina, Vanderbilt, those are the teams
• 34:10
  Speaker 3: here today we've talked about all of them. Probably spent
• 34:13
  Speaker 3: the least amount of time on Georgia. And that's not
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: like because it's kind of boring, right, It's just they're good.
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: It's Georgia, it's Kirby. They're gonna be good, they're gonna
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: win a lot of games. They're probably gonna have a
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: chance to play for the SEC Championship.
• 34:28
  Speaker 5: Would you say, I would say the least interesting team
• 34:30
  Speaker 5: at SEC media, I would say because they're just good
• 34:35
  Speaker 5: and they're consistent, and.
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: That's it.
• 34:38
  Speaker 5: That's all you can say it about it, like what
• 34:40
  Speaker 5: do you ask them? Like, what do you Yeah, you know,
• 34:42
  Speaker 5: how's it feel? You're pretty much guaranteed to have double
• 34:45
  Speaker 5: digit wins again, You're gonna be in the playoff.
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there's gonna be like, there's gonna be one game
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: in the season that's going to kind of tell all
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: you're gonna be like a national champion or just like
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: a quarterfinals.
• 34:55
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean you'll be, you know, a couple of
• 34:57
  Speaker 5: player away from either going to the national championship or not.
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: So, I mean it's kind of boring. I'm with you.
• 35:04
  Speaker 3: And look, if any person in this building won't it
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: that way, it's Kirby.
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: Oh for sure.
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: That's Kirby loves that. He loves that. That's the that's
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: the the facts about his team right now.
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there's no there's no quarterback competition. You got a
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: good quarterback.
• 35:20
  Speaker 5: There's no hot seat to talk about, there's no are
• 35:23
  Speaker 5: they going to be able to fix this situation? No drama,
• 35:28
  Speaker 5: And that's like, that is the epitome and that is
• 35:31
  Speaker 5: the goal for every program. As LSU fans, you need
• 35:35
  Speaker 5: to hope that LSU is going to be boring at media.
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: Day and their team is their team. What do I
• 35:41
  Speaker 3: mean by that? They're gonna have one transfer on offense
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: be a starter, and they're going to have two transfers
• 35:46
  Speaker 3: on defense be a starter. Everyone else started their career
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: at Georgia. That's pretty remarkable in today's that's incredible college football.
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: In this world that we live in.
• 35:57
  Speaker 5: You go look at anybody else's roster and then country
• 36:00
  Speaker 5: and you were going to see way more new faces
• 36:04
  Speaker 5: on offense and the defense.
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: So what they're been able to do to sustain is
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: pretty remarkable.
• 36:10
  Speaker 5: Like any sport of college football, to be able to
• 36:12
  Speaker 5: sustain year and year out is incredible just because the
• 36:16
  Speaker 5: turnover that you're going to have.
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah it is. It's only Georgia really that's able because
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: teams are trying to do it like that, like a
• 36:27
  Speaker 3: Clemson for instance, but they don't have the Jimmis and
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: Joe's right, like, they try to do it like that.
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: But the thing is Kirby still gets to the Jimmies
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: and Joe's and look, he'll supplement his roster with a
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: transfer if he needs to. Like Zacharia Branch last year
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: that was their leading receiver. Zacharia Branch came in, played well,
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: got drafted, but it was like that one player is
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: what they needed. They don't do a lot of wholesale
• 36:50
  Speaker 3: changes there. They trust their high school recruiting. They develop
• 36:53
  Speaker 3: their players still, and when you have success like they're having,
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: you can do that, players will stick around a little
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: bit longer. You know, you can convince a guy to
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: be a red shirt junior and be a starter for
• 37:04
  Speaker 3: the first time.
• 37:05
  Speaker 5: Yea, how do you think your guy did interviewing? Gunnar
• 37:10
  Speaker 5: stalked him by himself.
• 37:11
  Speaker 3: I think he's got sweaty palms still.
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: Do you think a lat was it six minutes? Seven minutes?
• 37:16
  Speaker 5: They probably thought in his brain he's got enough, he's
• 37:18
  Speaker 5: got enough questions.
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, in the chamber for an hour.
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: So you know, I don't like we were pretty full
• 37:27
  Speaker 3: of disclosure here. So I got a text from somebody said,
• 37:31
  Speaker 3: you know, hey, this is this is the true test,
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: Like you're getting Gunner one on one again. Incredible leader,
• 37:38
  Speaker 3: but just not somebody's going to give you a lot
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: in an interview. And you know, so I wrote back,
• 37:42
  Speaker 3: I said, look, no matter how it goes, he has
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: to know that Barbara Walters couldn't get information out of
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: that guy. You know what I mean? And like that's
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: what Barbara did for for a living, and it was
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: really good at it, you know what I mean. So
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: it ain't you, it's him, so probably not great, yes,
• 37:59
  Speaker 3: sweat probably not. It was probably you when we were interviewing,
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: interviewing Cole Payte and singing bowl.
• 38:05
  Speaker 5: Yeah for sure, little finger point you're up pal So yeah,
• 38:14
  Speaker 5: kind of I played that on air.
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: I saw y'all sent it in the group chat.
• 38:19
  Speaker 5: I didn't even watch it, so I didn't want to
• 38:20
  Speaker 5: get secondhand embarrassment.
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: Yea, we did. Was it as cringe as we all remember?
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: Or is it better? It's probably better?
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: Do you want me to answer that?
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: Of course it was glorious. It was everything I I
• 38:35
  Speaker 3: remembered in the moment.
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: I wasn't even embarrassed during it. That's the thing, you
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: know what. My palms get more sweaty when.
• 38:45
  Speaker 5: We come back from break and you're not here, and
• 38:48
  Speaker 5: like I hadn't you know, usually when I host a show,
• 38:50
  Speaker 5: like when you're not here, like I'll put topics throughout
• 38:54
  Speaker 5: the day so I can look down.
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: Okay, let's just go to this.
• 38:57
  Speaker 5: We I talked about it like when I don't know
• 38:59
  Speaker 5: you're going to be back on. I'm like, oh god,
• 39:00
  Speaker 5: what like we're gonna speak?
• 39:03
  Speaker 3: How long is he gonna be one?
• 39:04
  Speaker 5: This is just gonna be dead air for a little bit.
• 39:06
  Speaker 5: I'm like, all right, well, who are going to bes with?
• 39:09
  Speaker 3: And that's when Alondra writes back, We're back back.
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: So that was actually that was just forgetful because Billy
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: was talking. Okay, I didn't do it on purpose.
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: When's Billy Bill?
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: Billy?
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: You said that when you talk to Texas A and
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: M with him tomorrow, he's gonna be busy tomorrow.
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: So what everybody's gonna be busy?
• 39:30
  Speaker 3: I feel you. We do get anybody to day by tomorrow.
• 39:34
  Speaker 5: Alabama, Florida, Ole, Miss and Texas A and M Toor
• 39:39
  Speaker 5: is going to be an exciting day.
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: Tomorrow will be.
• 39:42
  Speaker 3: Tomorrow's a good group.
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: Tomor is a good group. I think we heard that
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: coach Pete Golding.
• 39:48
  Speaker 5: I don't think Rivers just said that they're not going
• 39:51
  Speaker 5: to bring their players through Radio Row.
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: I don't think anybody's going to be coming through here,
• 39:57
  Speaker 3: which is I.
• 39:57
  Speaker 5: Wonder if that's because they're anticipating the questions they would
• 40:00
  Speaker 5: get it. I doesn't want to protect he wants to
• 40:02
  Speaker 5: protect his guys.
• 40:03
  Speaker 3: Right, I have to protect yes, So, but like, hey,
• 40:06
  Speaker 3: that's why we're all here, that's why we came from
• 40:09
  Speaker 3: across the southeast to be here.
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: Sorry, but take your sensitivity somewhere else if you.
• 40:14
  Speaker 3: Like, that's why you select, like the guys that you
• 40:17
  Speaker 3: think can handle that, right, go.
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: To Conference USA. That's what Notre Dame does. They're so
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: sensitive they don't want this type of heat.
• 40:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so that hopefully, hopefully that's just like something that
• 40:26
  Speaker 3: got started. It's not true, but if it is, like
• 40:29
  Speaker 3: we got to we we got to go after him
• 40:31
  Speaker 3: a little bit.
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: They're a little overly sensitive. They don't want hard questions.
• 40:34
  Speaker 3: I mean, I think they're ex coach Like Eli Shoot's
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: bringing TJ daughter. He's going to face way tougher questions
• 40:41
  Speaker 3: I think than anybody else here, any player, any school. Yeah,
• 40:46
  Speaker 3: because he left Old Miss to go to l s U.
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he'll face way harder questions than the Old Miss players, no.
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: Doubt about it, more than anybody.
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 40:55
  Speaker 3: So I hope that's not true. I hope that's just
• 40:57
  Speaker 3: a bad rumor, and I hope they come through here
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: and look, we're probably I'm not going to talk to
• 41:00
  Speaker 3: him but I hope somebody does.
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: Because I have Trinidad Kawan Lacey and Will.
• 41:07
  Speaker 3: Ecles Eckles, yep, Eckles, Yeah, Kewan Lacey, Will Echles and Trinidad.
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: Champlsh put your quarterback through there.

• 42:26
  Speaker 3: segment Tuesday, here at Media Days in Tampa, Florida. We'll
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: ask the bench to wrap up today's show. Let's see
• 42:37
  Speaker 3: you got a ton of them coming in day, nice
• 42:38
  Speaker 3: chick drinkto Sekis. You can't read that it's inappropriate. Uh,
• 42:45
  Speaker 3: you can only pick one to eat the rest of
• 42:48
  Speaker 3: your life, which is a tacos? Enchiladas? Are Tomali's only one?
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: Taucus?
• 42:54
  Speaker 3: I mean tacos feels like the answer. But god, I
• 42:56
  Speaker 3: love Ancelada's and Tomali's.
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I love them all.
• 43:01
  Speaker 5: If you had to maybe choose cuisines, it'd be hard
• 43:04
  Speaker 5: to pick anything over Mexican food.
• 43:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, like taco for sure. It's just so versatile.
• 43:09
  Speaker 3: Mexican's definitely the answer. Ask the bench. Is there a
• 43:13
  Speaker 3: press buffet or you guys just roll with the per
• 43:15
  Speaker 3: diem Funny you think we get per diem That is
• 43:18
  Speaker 3: actually hilarious. We don't get anything close to per diem.
• 43:23
  Speaker 3: That's not in the budget. The press buffet yesterday was
• 43:27
  Speaker 3: not great, but luckily for me, not for Matt. Our
