• 1:57
  Speaker 4: the most hurt the cowboys. By the way, A little
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: update before you get into that portion of it. The
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: Cowboys are not expected to re engage in Max Crosby
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: trade discussions.
• 2:07
  Speaker 5: They say, we have moved on with Rashaun.
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: Gary and we are not getting back into the same
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: talks that we were in classic negotiations.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: Make him think you're not interested.
• 2:18
  Speaker 6: Said the same talks. I didn't say any talks.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: That's true, the same talks.
• 2:22
  Speaker 6: Might be talking a little lower value. Yeah, it's fair
• 2:25
  Speaker 6: in a fourth round pick.
• 2:27
  Speaker 5: So Doc, you might look at my knee different than
• 2:31
  Speaker 5: Flynn would.
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: Look at my knee if he was a doctor, I know,
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: funny enough, there's no shot.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: But if he was friends of the family, brothers doctor,
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: that's true.
• 2:39
  Speaker 5: So we know this.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: You know, doctor's gonna have different opinions.
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: And look, when you're the guy who is checking out
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: somebody that is two first round picks leaving your building
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: to come in, you're going to be pretty thorough in
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: your examination. How bad does it have to be though,
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: for you to go back to a team think and
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: be like, hey, we can't do this if that is
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: in fact, if it is a failed physical which they
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: knew he was hurt coming in, Like, how bad do
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: you think it has to be for you to go
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: back to the team and say, hey, guys, this is
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: something we can't do.
• 3:12
  Speaker 6: Yeah, And that's tough because on the one hand, you
• 3:15
  Speaker 6: don't want to be the guy that's responsible for drafting
• 3:17
  Speaker 6: a player like if I, if I, if I sign off, Yeah,
• 3:19
  Speaker 6: he's gonna be okay, and then he comes in and
• 3:21
  Speaker 6: just can't stay on the field, and then you know,
• 3:23
  Speaker 6: they're all looking at me, and that's gonna be my
• 3:25
  Speaker 6: head probably on the block. But then on the other hand, Yeah,
• 3:28
  Speaker 6: the classic one I always think about is, uh is
• 3:30
  Speaker 6: the Drew Brees one. You know, the guy his first option,
• 3:33
  Speaker 6: first place, he almost went with Miami.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: They didn't pass his physical.
• 3:36
  Speaker 6: Uh, he played for the Saints because of that, he
• 3:38
  Speaker 6: could he would have been a dolphin. And it's funny.
• 3:40
  Speaker 6: I mean, I've talked about a bunch of time, the
• 3:42
  Speaker 6: the butterfly effect that could have caused for a lot
• 3:44
  Speaker 6: of different things. But but yeah, with with with with Crosby,
• 3:48
  Speaker 6: I mean, I don't know anything about his medical So
• 3:50
  Speaker 6: just this is if you're looking at a knee and
• 3:52
  Speaker 6: if it's just a moniscus, you know, typically we don't
• 3:54
  Speaker 6: think of that as a serious injury, but is there
• 3:57
  Speaker 6: anything else? You know, maybe the MRI showed that he
• 3:58
  Speaker 6: had a big cartilage defense and then he's already got
• 4:00
  Speaker 6: a lot of early arthritis. And this is a guy
• 4:02
  Speaker 6: that you're looking at, like, gosh, man, I don't want
• 4:04
  Speaker 6: to put any bad juju out there for this guy,
• 4:05
  Speaker 6: but you know, that would be the things you would
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: probably think of. Or maybe something that came up on
• 4:09
  Speaker 6: some of the rest of physical is something they didn't
• 4:10
  Speaker 6: know about, maybe on a you know, maybe he had
• 4:13
  Speaker 6: some kind of heart issue or something. And again not
• 4:15
  Speaker 6: putting anything crazy, but there are things you're going to
• 4:17
  Speaker 6: look at, but you know, typically it does seem a
• 4:20
  Speaker 6: little bit odd. You know, meniscu surgeries are a very commonplace.
• 4:23
  Speaker 6: You know, even if he didn't have a good repair,
• 4:26
  Speaker 6: then you just go in and do him minoseectomy later
• 4:27
  Speaker 6: and it kind of shave out the damage pieces and
• 4:30
  Speaker 6: he's probably able to still play a pretty good career
• 4:32
  Speaker 6: after that, you know, just maybe a little more problems
• 4:34
  Speaker 6: down the road.
• 4:34
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 4:36
  Speaker 7: The way I view physicals is it's not like black
• 4:40
  Speaker 7: and white pass or fail. It is it's an opinion
• 4:44
  Speaker 7: based on all sorts of different variables that you're going
• 4:47
  Speaker 7: through like this guy's played in the trenches in the
• 4:50
  Speaker 7: NFL for a long time, so his physical is certainly
• 4:54
  Speaker 7: is a passing physical for him, certainly going to look
• 4:56
  Speaker 7: different than a seventeen year old kid that's going to college. Right,
• 5:00
  Speaker 7: So like you're you're not grading on this, well, you
• 5:03
  Speaker 7: got to hit these marks, blah blah blah, Like it's
• 5:05
  Speaker 7: a you take all the variables, you take everything like
• 5:08
  Speaker 7: into account, and you given a like as a doctor,
• 5:12
  Speaker 7: like I would think the job is to give an
• 5:14
  Speaker 7: opinion because nobody's going to pass a physical two months
• 5:16
  Speaker 7: after surgery, right knee surgery. I know it's some meniscus,
• 5:21
  Speaker 7: it's more complasts, it's not like reconstructive or anything like that.
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: But because like it was significant meniscus tear.
• 5:27
  Speaker 7: But like they they said, like nobody's going to pass
• 5:29
  Speaker 7: a physical if you're thinking about a physical as like
• 5:33
  Speaker 7: just like, okay, can he do is he is he
• 5:34
  Speaker 7: perfectly healthy? Of course he's not perfectly healthy. He's two
• 5:38
  Speaker 7: months after surgery. So I what is the job of
• 5:41
  Speaker 7: a team doctor when you're doing physicals on a player?
• 5:44
  Speaker 7: Is it just to provide like I'm either passing or
• 5:46
  Speaker 7: failing him or I'm providing new information based on what
• 5:50
  Speaker 7: I'm seeing. And here's all the different variables to think about.
• 5:53
  Speaker 6: It's for the most part the latter. There are gonna
• 5:56
  Speaker 6: be sometimes it's pass fail but.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: A big rubber stamp.
• 5:59
  Speaker 6: Yeah, but the old werewhelming majority is not going to
• 6:02
  Speaker 6: be that. Let's just be you know, somebody had a
• 6:03
  Speaker 6: you know I mentioned earlier like hard somebody had a
• 6:05
  Speaker 6: really bad heart condition and we discovered that in a physical.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: That's the guy.
• 6:08
  Speaker 6: We're gonna rubber stamp it. As you say, I mean
• 6:09
  Speaker 6: that that's you know, you can't cause you don't want
• 6:11
  Speaker 6: the guy to die. You don't want something bad to happen.
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: Or if you look at his knee and it's completely
• 6:15
  Speaker 6: unstable and he's had multiple surgeries and he's got just
• 6:17
  Speaker 6: the trashiest knee ever, you might do that. And again
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: I don't think that's the case, but right, but.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: This guy's needs trash you.
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: Know they're out there.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: I mean, look, I can't sign this guy.
• 6:31
  Speaker 6: But but the reality is kind of like we talked
• 6:34
  Speaker 6: about some of the combine stuff, is you give an
• 6:36
  Speaker 6: assessment and and a lot of times that assessment is, hey,
• 6:39
  Speaker 6: this guy's got an injury. We know he's got an injury.
• 6:41
  Speaker 6: And and to be fair, if you're playing in the NFL,
• 6:43
  Speaker 6: unless you're maybe a punter, you've got injuries. You know,
• 6:45
  Speaker 6: That's that's the reality. Nobody's nobody's coming in clean. So
• 6:48
  Speaker 6: then you got to say, well, how long do I.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: Think he can play?
• 6:51
  Speaker 5: How how much career.
• 6:52
  Speaker 6: Do we think he has left? And that's when that's
• 6:54
  Speaker 6: when kind of the subjectivity, you know, it's it's you
• 6:57
  Speaker 6: use your education, you use your knowledge, you use the
• 6:59
  Speaker 6: tools that you have. But at the end of the
• 7:00
  Speaker 6: kind of what Jake was saying earlier, you and me
• 7:01
  Speaker 6: might disagree. We might both look at this knee and
• 7:03
  Speaker 6: I might say, man, I'll be surprised if he can
• 7:05
  Speaker 6: get three more years in the league on this, And
• 7:07
  Speaker 6: you may look at it and say, you know what,
• 7:08
  Speaker 6: with good treatment and if we get good rehab, we can.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: Probably get six out of them. Right, that's a big difference.
• 7:13
  Speaker 7: But how can you tell that, like now, like two
• 7:15
  Speaker 7: months after a surgery. Is it just based on looking
• 7:17
  Speaker 7: at how much trash is in that knee?
• 7:19
  Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, basically I don't know that you really
• 7:21
  Speaker 6: can after surgery. You know it's not gonna be normal.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: That's a good point.
• 7:24
  Speaker 7: You're like saying, like, I think he's got X amount
• 7:27
  Speaker 7: of good years left in him, and they're like, Okay,
• 7:28
  Speaker 7: well that's worth the investment.
• 7:30
  Speaker 6: I think the one way you maybe could and to
• 7:33
  Speaker 6: be fair, is even though he just had surgery and
• 7:36
  Speaker 6: we know he's not going to be able to play
• 7:38
  Speaker 6: football today, he just had surgery. But again that's where
• 7:41
  Speaker 6: if you look at that MRI, maybe if you look
• 7:43
  Speaker 6: at some of the pictures from the surgery and you
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: see that that cartilage is really worn down under the meniscus, yeah,
• 7:47
  Speaker 6: and maybe he's got some other defects there. And if
• 7:49
  Speaker 6: you're looking at all those things, I could see a
• 7:52
  Speaker 6: medical explanation for why after you see that, maybe don't
• 7:55
  Speaker 6: have all that information because in the being, yeah, it's
• 7:57
  Speaker 6: just a meniscus. But then I see his scans, I'm like, Ooh,
• 8:00
  Speaker 6: this need is gonna be trouble. We're gonna we're gonna
• 8:01
  Speaker 6: have to really work on this thing. And maybe maybe
• 8:03
  Speaker 6: there you make that decision again that that would be
• 8:06
  Speaker 6: the one scenario that I could think of.
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: Does it make y'all feel like something maybe a little
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: fishy is happening whenever that you void this trade in
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: the next day, you signed Trey Hendrickson to a four year,
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: one hundred and twelve million dollar contract at the same position.
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: I think it's just coincidence.
• 8:21
  Speaker 6: And when you think about it, sounds coincidental.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: So that's that's that's the bomb. That and you get
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: to keep both of your first round pick.
• 8:28
  Speaker 7: I just read that like twenty seconds before you said it.
• 8:32
  Speaker 7: I just I wanted to laugh. Sorry, Doc, Yeah, I
• 8:34
  Speaker 7: was one to like, now we know, but I was like,
• 8:36
  Speaker 7: oh my god, are you serious. So physical is pretty bad?
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, get there. It is definitely physical.
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: So and look, Doc, I'm not asking you to speak
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: ill of your brethren here. But in twenty eighteen, they
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: had a very similar situation. There's a receiver they signed
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: for like three or four years, I forget what the
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: year number was, like thirty million dollars and he never
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: missed a game for Washington and then the next day
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: after they agreed to that deal, Michael Crabtree gets available,
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: he gets released, and they end up failing this physical
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: this player never missed a game before and using that
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: money to sign Michael Crabtree. So like, that's a and
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: again maybe it was whatever, but it's a slippery slope
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: to have that happen to the same organization a couple
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: of different times. And if that's what you're using to
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: try to get out of these deals, that's not good.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: Well, I don't know if they care. They're just saying,
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: where the villain? You ever heard that before? We're the villain.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: I don't care. Embrace it. Yeah, it's they're gonna embrace it, you.
• 9:33
  Speaker 6: Know, And and and saying that even failed the physical,
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: you know, the the reality of it is, where does
• 9:38
  Speaker 6: that even come from?
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: You know?
• 9:39
  Speaker 6: Anybody can fail the physical. Yeah, along the chain, so
• 9:42
  Speaker 6: I may not fail it, but then you know, anybody
• 9:44
  Speaker 6: else can say, oh right, and you're really gonna look
• 9:46
  Speaker 6: at that and.
• 9:47
  Speaker 5: The physical and Seattle.
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: I went on a free agent visit because this dummy
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: over here talk me into it. So I went on
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: a free agent visit to Seattle. Everything was going great,
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: thought I was gonna sign, like, hey, uh, we feel
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: your physical so.
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: We still want you.
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: But when you sign your deal, just know, even as
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: a vested veteran, we're gonna avoid the right for you
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: to get paid if you get hurt. I was like, no,
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: thirty years old, play fullback.
• 10:12
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna get something.
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah, And they were like, yeah, we like you, we
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: want you to sign, but just know, like if you
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: get hurt like everything, no money's coming back to you.
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: I was like, you don't want to be on that team? No,
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: well I thought I thought. I thought we're gonna have
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: some fun. Uniforms were cool. They were new that year.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they were new that year. They were they were.
• 10:31
  Speaker 5: It was one of your selling points.
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: I remember when you called me like we had new uniforms.
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: But then like after thinking about it, they weren't that cool.
• 10:37
  Speaker 7: Yeah, they didn't have the coolest guy around playing quarterback
• 10:40
  Speaker 7: for him. Yeah, we would have fun, like playing ping
• 10:43
  Speaker 7: pong the locker room. Yeah I dominated that locker room.
• 10:46
  Speaker 7: Yeah I didn't. I ran that ran that room ping pong.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: I believe you.
• 10:53
  Speaker 5: I've seen you play with four ball.
• 11:00
  Speaker 7: I'm I'm a little check of this. This Hendricks and stuff.
• 11:02
  Speaker 7: This is wild.
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: But like it's called yesterday. As soon as it's happened,
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: I go, they're gonna sign Tray. Yeah, that's what's gonna happen.
• 11:08
  Speaker 7: And they I think it's they.
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: Got some feedback back of hey, I don't know that
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: I was giving up two first round picks, Like Max
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: didn't have his best year last year, he had like
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: seven sacks.
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: He's get a.
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: Little bit older, great players still, but you're getting up
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: two first rounders. Why don't you just go make a move,
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: just like now the market's set for edge rusher. All right,
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: we know what it is. Go sign tray for twenty
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: eight per year, keep your first round picks and move on.
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: Which again, they had a guy coming off surgery that
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: everybody knew was going to fail a physical.
• 11:41
  Speaker 5: Everybody knew he just had surgery.
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: They knew weren't gonna be ready until August, but they
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: used it because now the market was set.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: I die.
• 11:48
  Speaker 7: That's like, that's the that's the great loophole in the
• 11:50
  Speaker 7: NFL right now, is under the medical because.
• 11:55
  Speaker 5: Of a challenge it how do you challenge it's it's
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: my doctor.
• 11:58
  Speaker 6: Parent, it's a benu. Yeah, and that's it's gonna be.
• 12:01
  Speaker 6: You know, that's something that comes up in a lot
• 12:03
  Speaker 6: of avenues. It's it's you know, ano one of the
• 12:05
  Speaker 6: rules in college with if you know the guy fakes
• 12:07
  Speaker 6: an injury. You know, that's something we've talked about, like
• 12:09
  Speaker 6: how do they know? I mean, if I say he's injured.
• 12:11
  Speaker 6: Who you to tell me is not. It's kind of
• 12:13
  Speaker 6: the same argument.
• 12:15
  Speaker 5: You don't deserve the lab coat.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: If they'll still wear that, it's only probably not some
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: do what color scrubs is like? A cool color? And
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: what color is like? What what color is like? Nerd alert?
• 12:30
  Speaker 5: Yeah, so be honest.
• 12:33
  Speaker 6: So I'm a big I'm a big black and navy
• 12:37
  Speaker 6: or most of mine, they're pretty much all there, you know,
• 12:39
  Speaker 6: kind of solid, kind of kind of traditional gold.
• 12:41
  Speaker 5: You got any of those? I do not. I do not.
• 12:44
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it wouldn't be opposed necessarily. I think, Uh, a.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: Good strong color. I agree, Yeah, I agree.
• 12:49
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's it's uh, we have some people that we
• 12:52
  Speaker 6: will call out if they get a little too colorful, okay. Uh,
• 12:55
  Speaker 6: And it depends I mean this, this may be wrong
• 12:57
  Speaker 6: to say. It depends on who they are. Some people
• 12:58
  Speaker 6: can pull it off and we got ten year Yeah, yeah,
• 13:00
  Speaker 6: some do. And then depends there's some things, but uh,
• 13:03
  Speaker 6: I want to call you about it specifically.
• 13:04

  Speaker 7: You got so many sports happening right now, LSU, Like,
• 14:16
  Speaker 7: what is the what's the big id during football season?
• 14:20
  Speaker 7: You deal, there's concussions that Like, there's probably a lot

  Speaker 7: less of that now because I don't think soccer season's
• 14:26
  Speaker 7: happening right now, and I know women's soccer there's a
• 14:28
  Speaker 7: lot of concussions in that as well. So what's like

  Speaker 7: some of the main injuries you see with a lot
• 14:32
  Speaker 7: of the Olympics sports.
• 14:33
  Speaker 6: So yeah, we got a lot going on. And you
• 14:35
  Speaker 6: know sport by sports is gonna be different. You know,
• 14:37
  Speaker 6: baseball you wear about the arm injuries. You know, you
• 14:39

• 14:41
  Speaker 6: stepped on and things like that.
• 14:42
  Speaker 5: Well not with the oven.
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, have you ever seen that?
• 14:45
  Speaker 7: It was was was finger injuries a big enough problem
• 14:49
  Speaker 7: to where we had to create these you know, we
• 14:51
  Speaker 7: never came melt.
• 14:52
  Speaker 6: It was you know, maybe that's sometimes we're the old
• 14:55
  Speaker 6: school you know it's it's lighting. Yeah, I mean, I
• 14:57
  Speaker 6: got a couple of crooked ones from actually is a battle. Well,
• 15:01
  Speaker 6: but yeah, and then you know in different sports, no, gymnastics,
• 15:03
  Speaker 6: we see a lot of ankles, we see lot of shoulders,
• 15:05
  Speaker 6: and gymnastics shoulders, they're they're so beat up, especially at
• 15:08
  Speaker 6: this point of the season. You know we're getting close to postseason.
• 15:10
  Speaker 6: You got one more home game this or home meet
• 15:12
  Speaker 6: this Friday, y'all.
• 15:15
  Speaker 5: I did not. I didn't. Yeah, you don't want to
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: go there if you don't have to.
• 15:17
  Speaker 6: I hate Gainesville. Yeah, I would drive around at every
• 15:20
  Speaker 6: opportunity I could.
• 15:20
  Speaker 5: Yeah, your jeans have legs, so you wouldn't fit in anyway.
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: Exactly.
• 15:23
  Speaker 7: If you had to formulate an opinion on toughness, our
• 15:25
  Speaker 7: gymnasts the toughest.
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: I think they I think they are.
• 15:29
  Speaker 6: I think Look, I tell people, there are toughest athletes,
• 15:32
  Speaker 6: and in my opinion.
• 15:32
  Speaker 5: Probably our best athletes.
• 15:34
  Speaker 6: If you watch what they do, and even there, it's
• 15:36
  Speaker 6: the beam I I don't I couldn't walk across it,
• 15:39
  Speaker 6: and I'm reasonably athletic, and they're doing all the things
• 15:42
  Speaker 6: that I couldn't even fathom doing. Yeah, yeah, exactly, I mean,
• 15:47
  Speaker 6: I I know, even that my peak, peak of my abilities,
• 15:51
  Speaker 6: I would have not known who.
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: They do, not even anything close.
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: I think my foot's wider than the beat.
• 15:55
  Speaker 7: Another thing you can do, like a fair where you
• 15:57
  Speaker 7: get strapped into like a bungee and you're on a trampoline,
• 15:59
  Speaker 7: you can do. Yeah, I couldn't do the things they
• 16:02
  Speaker 7: do on a three inch beam that's right on that thing.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, like not even close. Yeah, it's outrageous.
• 16:08
  Speaker 6: But yeah, I know they're they're fantastic and they're they're
• 16:10
  Speaker 6: doing great.

  Speaker 4: Wednesday show is brought to you by Hood Dental Hoodentalcare
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: dot com, Hood Dentalcare dot Com. I'll tell you a
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: little bit about some incredible giveaways they have coming up
• 20:22
  Speaker 4: later on.
• 20:25
  Speaker 5: This Raiders Ravens.
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: Saying is fascinating to me now and again, Like, I
• 20:29
  Speaker 4: know it's not to be the top story in Mattanurice, Louisiana,
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: but I think anybody can appreciate what's going on and
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: how the Ravens are trying to get it done. And
• 20:40
  Speaker 4: people are being like, oh up, actually we see you,
• 20:44
  Speaker 4: like you're you're carrying the TV out of the home
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: that you just ripped it off the wall, and you're like,
• 20:50
  Speaker 4: I don't have anything in my hands, Like we see you.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: Though, we caught you in four K yeah.
• 20:54
  Speaker 10: And like who's gonna who's gonna want to do deals
• 20:57
  Speaker 10: with these guys in the future.
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: Like I don't. I don't understanding.
• 21:00
  Speaker 10: Like they think they're winning this, they're not.
• 21:02
  Speaker 5: Yeah, And I was listening to the guys after us.
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: They're not going to get.
• 21:08
  Speaker 4: Tom Tellusco, who's been a gym before. He's like, I can't.
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: I'm not blaming it. I'm not like accusing. He's like,
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: but like, if something is going on and this happens,
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: this will alter the ease of their deals, was kind
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: of the way he put it. Not that they wouldn't
• 21:24
  Speaker 4: get him done, he said, but it would change the
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: strategy for a lot of teams dealing with the Ravens.
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 21:32
  Speaker 5: Yeah, agents, agents too.
• 21:34
  Speaker 7: Takes a long time to build trust. Agents was brought
• 21:37
  Speaker 7: up to tear it down exactly.
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 21:45
  Speaker 7: I don't know if anyone's ever wondered this, but it's like,
• 21:47
  Speaker 7: how is like Adam Schefter and all these different folks
• 21:51
  Speaker 7: that are breaking is how they're getting this information?
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: Well, there is.
• 21:54
  Speaker 7: It's certainly a network of agents that feed Adam Schefter
• 21:59
  Speaker 7: this information because it's a give and take relationship. Schefter
• 22:03
  Speaker 7: feeds agents information, for sure, agents feeds Schefter information and
• 22:07
  Speaker 7: it's uh, you scratch my back, ey scratch yours, and
• 22:10
  Speaker 7: everybody's okay with it because it enhances the visibility of
• 22:14
  Speaker 7: the NFL. But in situations like this, it's certainly puts
• 22:21
  Speaker 7: people in a bad spot. Now they put themselves in
• 22:23
  Speaker 7: the ravens, put themselves in a bad spot. That's not
• 22:26
  Speaker 7: the way to do business in any line of business.
• 22:29
  Speaker 7: But let's not say it's unheard of in the world
• 22:31
  Speaker 7: of business. People make deals and back out of deals
• 22:34
  Speaker 7: all the time.
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: In business. It's just not.
• 22:37
  Speaker 7: A sexy thing that people care about, like such as
• 22:41
  Speaker 7: Sportant Group.
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: I mean, you're talking about only thirty two teams in
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: this multi.
• 22:46
  Speaker 5: Brillion dollar business. No other businesses like.
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: This, right, you look like real estate. People get contracts
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: on real estate and back out like it happens.
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: I get to the eleventh hour, house is sold, I've
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: already had a moving company. I've already got my next purchase.
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: Like we're going to back out? Yeah, I guess this
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: other house. I feel like getting to the paperwork, is
• 23:06
  Speaker 4: this better house available?
• 23:08
  Speaker 7: It's got a better you know, sweeter pool, got a
• 23:12
  Speaker 7: wrestle pool, got a wrestle pool at this house.
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: We're going to back out of this other way, didn't The.
• 23:16
  Speaker 10: Only thing that would make this better if the Raiders
• 23:20
  Speaker 10: can't sign all their free agents because Max is still
• 23:23
  Speaker 10: on the book at the Ravens resigned Tyler Linderbaum.
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: It see, the only thing.
• 23:28
  Speaker 5: That'll make Ravens don't have their room to do it.
• 23:30
  Speaker 5: But it would be funny.
• 23:31
  Speaker 7: I mean, ain't signing a center for twenty seven million
• 23:34
  Speaker 7: dollars nine million above the second highest paid center was
• 23:38
  Speaker 7: a dumb move.
• 23:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the Ravens have about like eighteen some change I
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: think in Soury CAP's space, but it would be funny. Uh,
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: the Raiders have thirty seven point nine million, so that
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: number goes down because now Max Crosby back on the books. Uh.
• 23:52
  Speaker 4: The Washington Commanders still had the most money to spend
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: seventy nine point eight million under the cap. They did
• 23:58
  Speaker 4: just make a move to bring in former LSU tiger
• 24:02
  Speaker 4: calevon Chasong one year, twelve million dollar deal. Calebon had
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: seven and a half sacks last year. Interesting career for
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: Klevon first round pick certainly didn't work out there for
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: him in Jacksonville. He goes to the Raiders and kind
• 24:19
  Speaker 4: of a last ditch effort type deal, has a solid
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: enough season where he signs with the Patriots and then
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: at the end of the year he was kind of dominant,
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: like there was there was times where it was real
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: tough to block him, and so he parlays that into
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: a bettle on yourself deal. One year's twelve million dollars.
• 24:39
  Speaker 4: So shout out to Calebon, we go, we get that money.
• 24:43
  Speaker 4: Hopefully nobody backs out.
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: That's true.
• 24:48
  Speaker 7: It's wild, man, we're kind of poking fun at it.
• 24:51
  Speaker 7: But this is especially with this big blockbus server trade,
• 24:54
  Speaker 7: this is unheard of. This is going to send shockwaves
• 24:57
  Speaker 7: throughout the NFL. There's going to be rules that are
• 24:59
  Speaker 7: going to need to be changed. There's gonna be a Max.
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: Crosby rule or the Ravens rule or whatever they want
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: to call it.
• 25:05
  Speaker 7: Yeah, there's gonna I don't know what you do because
• 25:07
  Speaker 7: you can't stop that. You can't stop people leaking information,
• 25:11
  Speaker 7: right uh, because that's gonna happen. That's why I kind
• 25:13
  Speaker 7: of started the segment. I signed like that. This is
• 25:15
  Speaker 7: how the leaks happen. It's not the Ravens. The team
• 25:18
  Speaker 7: owners in the NFL allow these leaks to happen because
• 25:21
  Speaker 7: it's good for the publicity of the sport and the
• 25:23
  Speaker 7: shield and the like, the promotion of the NFL. It's
• 25:27
  Speaker 7: great for that. That's why it's everyone's okay and good
• 25:30
  Speaker 7: with it. And it's always usually correct information. I won't
• 25:34
  Speaker 7: say always usually correct information because it's the actual agent.
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: Let's talking to Adam Schefter. Yeah, so it's usually fairy.
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: Actually, I'll tell all these I mean, because the team
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: can't announce these deals, like the team's not gonna like
• 25:45
  Speaker 4: the team will put out a meme if they signed
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: somebody that tries to make you guess, was it the
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: Bears that sign Kobe Bryant from the Seahawks and they
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: put out a Kobe Bryant Lakers meme?
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: Right, they can't give you the dollars and cents, but
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: they can, you know, take it with their version of
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: a Tiger emogi.
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: Right, So exactly, so Schefty gets these from the agent
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: and everybody knows and that's how they leak and that's
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: how they get out there.
• 26:09
  Speaker 5: Again, nothing is officially official until three o'clock.
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: Central time for Eastern today, like that is when you
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: can officially so like there's gonna be players that are
• 26:18
  Speaker 4: in these cities right now waiting and then once they
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: get to go, they get to the hospital, get the
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: physical and becomes official, or if you're the Ravens, unofficial
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: because it doesn't happen.
• 26:28
  Speaker 7: How are you feeling so Like, if you're a player
• 26:30
  Speaker 7: that has agreed to terms with the Raiders right now
• 26:32
  Speaker 7: because of they thought they had the cap space for
• 26:34
  Speaker 7: the Max Carlsby and I know you're saying they still
• 26:36
  Speaker 7: have a lot of cap space, but how are you
• 26:38
  Speaker 7: feeling right now because you agreed to this and now
• 26:41
  Speaker 7: there's other teams that have filled the need. Like if
• 26:43
  Speaker 7: you were negotiating between the Raiders, the Seahawks and the
• 26:47
  Speaker 7: forty nine ers and you just you chose the and
• 26:51
  Speaker 7: I'm just giving these other example, right and you chose
• 26:53
  Speaker 7: the Raiders, and now these other teams have filled that need.
• 26:56
  Speaker 7: Now there's no spot for you. Now you're negotiating. Now
• 26:58
  Speaker 7: you're looking at like life changing implications because of this,
• 27:02
  Speaker 7: because maybe now you have to you take five, six, seven,
• 27:04
  Speaker 7: eight million dollars less than you did before. Maybe if
• 27:07
  Speaker 7: you're a big guy, maybe you're taking the center. Maybe
• 27:10
  Speaker 7: he's got to take nine million less a year. I mean,
• 27:12
  Speaker 7: that's obviously a huge deal, but the implications could be
• 27:18
  Speaker 7: absolutely massive and what a wild story and absolutely unheard
• 27:22
  Speaker 7: of and uh, shame on the Ravens. But they're not
• 27:25
  Speaker 7: going to apologize for it and they probably shouldn't. Just
• 27:28
  Speaker 7: like we said in business, people back out of deals
• 27:30
  Speaker 7: all the time. It just so happens that people are
• 27:32
  Speaker 7: a little bit more invested in know the the inner
• 27:36
  Speaker 7: workings of the NFL because it's so public.
• 27:38
  Speaker 5: Yep.
• 27:40
  Speaker 4: And also like they signed some guys at that position
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: and Max Crosby's going to be playing that probably thought
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: that their role in the team was going to be different.
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: I'm talking about like they didn't sign the agreed pretty
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: pay signed for over forty million dollars plus, so like
• 27:57
  Speaker 4: he was he thought he was going to be the dude.
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm the guy.
• 28:01
  Speaker 5: So we shall see.
• 28:04
  Speaker 4: And again I do agree there's gonna be ramifications from
• 28:08
  Speaker 4: the NFL if something does come out, or even if
• 28:10
  Speaker 4: it does, what but they'll try.
• 28:13
  Speaker 5: To see it.
• 28:14
  Speaker 7: Yeah, like maybe no trades can be announced till after
• 28:19
  Speaker 7: physical how about that?
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll never happen because of people texting Jake Glazer
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: and thefty and.
• 28:27
  Speaker 7: Yeah, that's it's gonna be a it's gonna be a
• 28:32
  Speaker 7: hard thing to close. The leaking of information not gonna happen.
• 28:37

  Speaker 4: Welcome back in oh TV. Here live from the Raising
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: Kanes Studio. Wednesday shows brought you by Hood Dental Care.
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: Also on Wednesdays, we had a pleasure of catching up
• 31:11
  Speaker 4: with one of our absolute favorites, coach Kim Mulki. They
• 31:14
  Speaker 4: had basketball coach at the LSU Tigers getting ready for
• 31:17
  Speaker 4: the postseason.
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: Coach, we always appreciate it.
• 31:19
  Speaker 5: Hope you're doing well this Wednesday morning heading to practice.
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: Big guys.
• 31:24
  Speaker 8: I have a nine am practice game, two or three
• 31:28
  Speaker 8: days off after the SEC Tournament, and we just got
• 31:33
  Speaker 8: to keep moving until Sunday when they announce the pairings
• 31:36
  Speaker 8: on television that evening.
• 31:38
  Speaker 5: That's rating. Coach.
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: I always love your approach to the SEC Tournament. You
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: go in with a plan and you try to make
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: sure that you'll execute the plan, and there's different things
• 31:46
  Speaker 4: that you want to work on. And look, certainly had
• 31:50
  Speaker 4: some great performances there in Greenville. I mean the game
• 31:53
  Speaker 4: against Oklahoma. That's a good basketball team and to be
• 31:55
  Speaker 4: able to win like that. Another hard fall game against
• 31:58
  Speaker 4: South Carolina as well. Before we move forward to what
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: you have coming up, how did you fill your team
• 32:03
  Speaker 4: played in the SEC Tournament.
• 32:06
  Speaker 8: I thought we left it out on the floor. We're
• 32:09
  Speaker 8: just a little bit there's you know, there's just a
• 32:11
  Speaker 8: small margin of era when you play a South Carolina
• 32:15
  Speaker 8: or a Yukon or any of those, even Texas, and man,
• 32:20
  Speaker 8: we fought hard in both South Carolina games this year
• 32:24
  Speaker 8: and did the same in a hostile environment there with
• 32:27
  Speaker 8: eighteen thousand plus people. With that many, all I know
• 32:31
  Speaker 8: is a pack full of game cock fans. But we
• 32:35
  Speaker 8: just you know, right there, and you know, as I
• 32:39
  Speaker 8: told the media afterwards, guys, I'm tired of hearing LSU's
• 32:45
  Speaker 8: eighteen And oh LSU might be, but Kim Malkey and
• 32:48
  Speaker 8: her teams are not. We've only played them seven times
• 32:51
  Speaker 8: since I've been here. Give me a break. We will
• 32:54
  Speaker 8: get there. It took me twenty something tries to start
• 32:59
  Speaker 8: winning in the Big twelve. I was there twenty one years.
• 33:03
  Speaker 8: You have to build a foundation, and I just know
• 33:05
  Speaker 8: what we've done in five years at LSU is pretty remarkable,
• 33:09
  Speaker 8: and I just I see the progress and we just
• 33:15
  Speaker 8: have to learn. You just keep teaching and you keep
• 33:19
  Speaker 8: showing them. Look at the lead. If you had executed
• 33:22
  Speaker 8: this right here, leaving a time out, you didn't go
• 33:24
  Speaker 8: do what you were supposed to do defensively. It's those
• 33:28
  Speaker 8: types of detail you got to do to be a
• 33:31
  Speaker 8: team that's going to beat somebody you're not supposed to beat.
• 33:34
  Speaker 8: And we've beaten people and we're not supposed to beat
• 33:36
  Speaker 8: But man, you're just so close to doing it on
• 33:39
  Speaker 8: a consistent basis.
• 33:42
  Speaker 7: Well, coach, of course, what you have done in your
• 33:44
  Speaker 7: time here at LSU has been incredible, and you got
• 33:47
  Speaker 7: another chance out of here coming up, of course, with
• 33:49
  Speaker 7: the NCAA Tournament. But I want to talk about is
• 33:51
  Speaker 7: there anything that your team can learn? Are there any
• 33:53
  Speaker 7: coaching points that you can learn from the SEC tournament
• 33:56
  Speaker 7: just from the thought and the stressors that from playing
• 34:00
  Speaker 7: elimination tournament type style? Is there anything you can take
• 34:03
  Speaker 7: from that SEC tournament and coach and bring.
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: It to the.
• 34:08
  Speaker 6: Well.
• 34:09
  Speaker 8: The first thing I'm gonna do this morning is gather
• 34:11
  Speaker 8: them in the locker room. I haven't seen them since
• 34:13
  Speaker 8: the loss, and we're not gonna do film on any
• 34:17
  Speaker 8: of the games in the SEC tournament. What we're gonna
• 34:20
  Speaker 8: do is talk about what's ahead. Some of them don't
• 34:24
  Speaker 8: even know because I have, you know, a lot in
• 34:27
  Speaker 8: that locker room that have never participated in the NCAA tournament.
• 34:30
  Speaker 8: And I'll explain to them, Guys, this particular team is well,
• 34:36
  Speaker 8: they are. They're gonna have the highest seed in the
• 34:39
  Speaker 8: NCAA Tournament of any of the teams I've had at LSU.
• 34:43
  Speaker 8: That's a remarkable feat. We're probably gonna be the first
• 34:45
  Speaker 8: number two or the second number two team, and they
• 34:50
  Speaker 8: need to know that is progress, that is continuing to
• 34:54
  Speaker 8: build this foundation. Then I'm gonna have to explain to
• 34:57
  Speaker 8: several of them how you're gonna get to play the
• 35:00
  Speaker 8: first and second round game here. Obviously you got to
• 35:03
  Speaker 8: win the first to get to the second round, but
• 35:05
  Speaker 8: that's big. Again, We've done that every year since I've
• 35:08
  Speaker 8: been here. And then you win those two games, you're
• 35:11
  Speaker 8: in the sweet sixteen, and coaches coach a lifetime and
• 35:15
  Speaker 8: never get to a sweet sixteen or lead eight or
• 35:18
  Speaker 8: final four, win a Natty, and just explain to them
• 35:22
  Speaker 8: what we're getting ready to do. And then I will
• 35:25
  Speaker 8: talk to them about the twenty twenty three team that
• 35:29
  Speaker 8: won the national championship and the adversity we went through.
• 35:34
  Speaker 8: Our five losses are so tight and close, and we
• 35:40
  Speaker 8: haven't had just a horrible meltdown or beat down in
• 35:44
  Speaker 8: any loss, and that twenty twenty three team did. We
• 35:48
  Speaker 8: got killed at South Carolina, actually embarrassed. We lost a
• 35:52
  Speaker 8: seventeen point lead in the SEC Tournament to Tennessee. I
• 35:57
  Speaker 8: suspended a couple of players during that season and we
• 36:00
  Speaker 8: win the Natty, adversity happens. We haven't really had adversity.
• 36:05
  Speaker 8: We haven't had to do anything to discipline kids this year,
• 36:09
  Speaker 8: we haven't had bad losses. So I'll explain all of
• 36:13
  Speaker 8: this and tell them it's who plays on a role
• 36:17
  Speaker 8: here these next six games, and why not us? We
• 36:20
  Speaker 8: finished the season ranked fifth in the country, fifth in
• 36:23
  Speaker 8: the country behind the four top seeds Yukon, UCLA, Texas,
• 36:28
  Speaker 8: and South Carolina. You're right there, and so I'll talk
• 36:33
  Speaker 8: to them about that and tell them the most talented
• 36:36
  Speaker 8: teams and the ones that are expected to win it
• 36:38
  Speaker 8: all don't always do that, and we're living proof of that.
• 36:43
  Speaker 5: That's right.
• 36:43
  Speaker 4: Catching up with LSAD basketball coach Kim Mulki here on
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: OTB coach. As you were talking, I started thinking about
• 36:50
  Speaker 4: some of the players that you have that have been
• 36:52
  Speaker 4: through the situation of playing in the postseason. But then
• 36:54
  Speaker 4: I started thinking about some of the freshmen like Grace
• 36:56
  Speaker 4: Knox and then Bella Hindes is somebody that came in
• 36:59
  Speaker 4: against O Oklahoma and hit three three pointers and she
• 37:02
  Speaker 4: might have a moment in the NCUBA Tournament. So when
• 37:04
  Speaker 4: those freshmen are going into their first Okay, hey, this
• 37:08
  Speaker 4: is going to be different, right. You've played in the
• 37:09
  Speaker 4: SEC tournament, You've played in big games, but this is
• 37:12
  Speaker 4: the NCUBA tournament. Do you maybe have a conversation with
• 37:16
  Speaker 4: those freshmen players?
• 37:17
  Speaker 5: Do you let the team.
• 37:18
  Speaker 4: Maybe have that conversation, maybe let them watch the older players.
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: How do you handle freshmen that are going to be
• 37:24
  Speaker 4: exposed to the NCAA tournament for the first time and
• 37:26
  Speaker 4: be counted on to have big roles.
• 37:28
  Speaker 8: Well, first of all, you talk to them as a group,
• 37:31
  Speaker 8: as a team, and I'll do that every day in preparation.
• 37:35
  Speaker 8: And then my approach is the NCAA tournament is a
• 37:40
  Speaker 8: cake walk compared to the SEC and compared to the
• 37:43
  Speaker 8: SEC tournament. I mean, guys, if you can do good
• 37:47
  Speaker 8: at the SEC tournament, which you did, and you can
• 37:50
  Speaker 8: do good throughout the season event, particularly this year, y'all
• 37:54
  Speaker 8: going to breathe a sigh of relief when you play
• 37:56
  Speaker 8: in the NCAA tournament, honestly, and just let them no,
• 38:00
  Speaker 8: it's it's not different other than the big difference and
• 38:03
  Speaker 8: only differences. If you don't win, you go into the house.
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: Coach.
• 38:10
  Speaker 7: Assistant coach Gary Ritas is going to take the head
• 38:12
  Speaker 7: coaching job for Rutgers. How does that impact what y'all
• 38:15
  Speaker 7: are doing? How's that? How's that going to work on
• 38:18
  Speaker 7: the towards the end of the season and headed into
• 38:20
  Speaker 7: the NCAA tournament.
• 38:21
  Speaker 8: Well, the timing of as you we're guilty of it
• 38:25
  Speaker 8: at LSU. Didn't we go get a coach at Old
• 38:27
  Speaker 8: Miss in the middle of the playoffs? So you know,
• 38:33
  Speaker 8: timing is everything in life. I'm not used to all
• 38:38
  Speaker 8: of this stuff happening during the season. I've watched it
• 38:43
  Speaker 8: play itself out in all sports. And until you have
• 38:47
  Speaker 8: some parameters on when you can hire coaches, this is
• 38:50
  Speaker 8: going to continue to happen because each institution is looking
• 38:53
  Speaker 8: out for themselves if their season's over. Why should I
• 38:55
  Speaker 8: have to wait until LSU season is over to hire somebody.
• 39:00
  Speaker 9: So that is.
• 39:01
  Speaker 8: Different for me. I've never had this happen before where
• 39:04
  Speaker 8: coach was taken during the tournament. However, I cannot be
• 39:08
  Speaker 8: any happier for Gary redis that young man was at
• 39:14
  Speaker 8: Delta State, that young man went to Vandy, that whole
• 39:18
  Speaker 8: staff got fired at Vandy. He goes to SMU for
• 39:21
  Speaker 8: one year and didn't have a great year. I have
• 39:24
  Speaker 8: an opening because my recruiter at that time, got a
• 39:27
  Speaker 8: head job at Central Florida and then Gary I brought
• 39:33
  Speaker 8: him on board, and man, he was just like he's
• 39:35
  Speaker 8: like an energizer bunny when it comes to recruiting. And
• 39:39
  Speaker 8: that's what he did for our program. He was a
• 39:41
  Speaker 8: recruiter on the court, He worked with guards and doing drills.
• 39:45
  Speaker 8: They all have specific things that they do. And obviously
• 39:48
  Speaker 8: doctor Tate and Kelly Zen having been at LSU no
• 39:54
  Speaker 8: my program. And I just know that he has an
• 39:58
  Speaker 8: opportunity to go at a young age and do good things.
• 40:04
  Speaker 8: And he will work his rear end off and try
• 40:07
  Speaker 8: to improve that program. And so as I told him,
• 40:12
  Speaker 8: you can't be married to two wives, I said, get
• 40:15
  Speaker 8: out of here, go to work, get your pro get
• 40:18
  Speaker 8: your staff in place, get your kids you know that
• 40:21
  Speaker 8: are there to stay. He hasn't even visited Rutgers. He
• 40:25
  Speaker 8: took the job, you know, over the phone or whatever.
• 40:28
  Speaker 8: And I know his love for our program and our team.
• 40:31
  Speaker 8: He'd want to be on the bench with us too,
• 40:33
  Speaker 8: But as a mentor, I can't. I can't be selfish
• 40:37
  Speaker 8: and ask him to stay with our team when this
• 40:41
  Speaker 8: could be a long three or four week process with
• 40:43
  Speaker 8: the playoffs. You need to be working. And so he's gonna,
• 40:47
  Speaker 8: you know, get after it at Rutgers. And he could
• 40:52
  Speaker 8: take one of our coaches, like coach Daphane, his his wife,
• 40:56
  Speaker 8: his best friends with coach Daphne. They played at Georgia
• 40:59
  Speaker 8: Tech Toga other and we're roommates. And if he does,
• 41:02
  Speaker 8: I'll be happy for her as well. I told somebody
• 41:05
  Speaker 8: the other day, I said, my last two recruiters God
• 41:08
  Speaker 8: had jobs. I said, I feel like Nick Saban, I
• 41:13
  Speaker 8: feel like I'm preparing you know, all his coordinators, from
• 41:17
  Speaker 8: Lane Kiffon to the guy at Texas. I mean, how
• 41:20
  Speaker 8: many you know Brian Lee's the NFL and heat end up.
• 41:23
  Speaker 8: But that's okay, that's respect, and that is preparing the
• 41:29
  Speaker 8: future of our game. And it just makes me have
• 41:33
  Speaker 8: to get on the phone a little more right now
• 41:35
  Speaker 8: and try to hire somebody to replace him. And if
• 41:39
  Speaker 8: I have to hire two, I will. I hope I don't,
• 41:41
  Speaker 8: but if I have to, I will, And we'll keep
• 41:44
  Speaker 8: keeping on.
• 41:45
  Speaker 4: Coach Kim Bulkey, you gonna have to join us every
• 41:47
  Speaker 4: single Wednesday morning here during the basketball season.
• 41:50
  Speaker 5: Coach.

  Speaker 2: Was in the tunnel talking to him.
• 42:18
  Speaker 5: I bet I don't know this. I don't know what
• 42:21
  Speaker 5: to be factual, but I'm just gonna guess.
• 42:23
  Speaker 4: Knowing Coach Malkey, since you don't have an opponent, and
• 42:26
  Speaker 4: since you had a couple of days off, I hope
• 42:28

• 42:35
  Speaker 4: like hey, I had some days off. Yeah, I'll get
• 42:38
  Speaker 4: your mind right. Yeah to say that from experience, yeah, exactly,
• 42:42
  Speaker 4: as it's bull practice, it is bowl practice.
• 42:45
  Speaker 5: Sorry, we'll take a.
