- 2:31I mean, I just saw the stuff on I guess X just a football
- 2:38camp. I'm not sure what happened, what started it? But an absolute
- 2:43melee of sorts as far as what went on with that. Of course,
- 2:49up more baseball, more basketball this week. As we move into this week,
- 2:53Mississippi State now four and four overall, O miss four and four,
- 2:58Arkansas five and two. You've got Alabama, Texas A and M eight and
- 3:00oh and seven and zero, LSU at seven and one, Auburn at six
- 3:05and one. You've also got Georgia at seven and oh. South Carolina Tennessee
- 3:07took their first losses over the weekend, both sitting at seven and one.
- 3:10You've got Kentucky at six and one, Florida at five and one, five
- 3:15and three for Vanderbilt, in four and three for Missouri. And when you
- 3:20look at the SEC basketball standings in the Southeastern Conference after the weekend, you've
- 3:28got Tennessee now tied with Alabama after they got punched in the face by Kentucky
- 3:32of the weekend, Tennessee has now won four straight ball games. They are
- 3:38twenty one and six overall, thirty eleven and three in the conference, Alabama
- 3:42eleven and three. You got South Carolina and Auburn at ten and four.
- 3:45They're a game off the clip. You've got Kentucky and Mississippi State right there.
- 3:50You can be Florida and Kentucky at nine to five, Missisippi State at
- 3:53eight and six almost six and eight, Texas A and M six and eight,
- 3:55and it probably cuts right there. So we'll get into what's going on
- 4:00with basketball coming up this weekend. Let's see here. White Denzel also appears
- 4:05to be mutual interests between Western Kentucky and the MAC as well. Yeah,
- 4:10I was gonna get to this and we will. There's a little bit of
- 4:13small conference realignment in college football happening right now, just a little bit.
- 4:17We only have two independence left in college football W Notre Dame in Yukon,
- 4:24and as Pete Thamill reports, White Denzel sent this to US Massachusetts UMass set
- 4:30to join the MAC in all sports twenty five to twenty six seasons. MAC
- 4:35presidents voted to invite the UMass as a new member today u MAASS is expected
- 4:42to except so I have not seen this. It could be out there this
- 4:46Western Kentucky and MAC as well. Of course Western Kentucky maybe looking to get
- 4:48out of Conference USA, I mean conference you would say, I don't know
- 4:51how much. I don't know how much pop it has left, but we'll
- 4:56see residog. Also, Jake Mushu is a basketball school for one more day,
- 5:00one more day. Have we got dark horse Heisman candidates that might be
- 5:04worthy of a wager this spring. We'll get into these are dark horse Heisman
- 5:08candidates. We'll get into that list. Courtesy of Brad Crawford. Also,
- 5:13Josh Pate put out some stuff on college football. We'll get to the two
- 5:15things he believes is baked into the ongoing college football playoff talks. Ian Rappaport
- 5:21on the NFL draft. Kayleb Williams will wait until his pro day to throw
- 5:28for workouts or to throw in workout for scout sources say he'll be in Indianapolis,
- 5:31but will not throw for teams. A couple of quarterbacks doing this.
- 5:36I want to ask Chris Langery about this. Is this a good thing,
- 5:39a bad thing? Or does it matter? Also, eight teams. I
- 5:42love it when we start getting too this. Eight teams who could throw a
- 5:45wrench in the playoff picture. We'll get into these specifically South Florida, SMU,
- 5:49Texas Tech always Texas Tech right there, NC State, Virginia Tech,
- 5:55West Virginia, Kansas, and Nebraska. We'll get into that. We'll dissect
- 5:59that. As over the weekend, viv I went through a lot. I
- 6:02mean I got every conference done just about well for sure, every conference in
- 6:05the Power five starting into some group of five, but their schedules aren't totally
- 6:10out. And I will tell you this, I'm starting to feel really good
- 6:13about a national champion. And it's February twenty six in Ada, Michigan.
- 6:17I'm feeling really really good about a national champion. I'll tell you who that.
- 6:21That won't tell you today, but I will tell you this as far
- 6:25as the playoff is concerned. Out of the conferences right now, really like
- 6:29Miami's roster and of course their quarterback and what they're bringing back in the ACC.
- 6:33I like Florida State. I feel like Clemson may be trending backwards just
- 6:39a bit, they still have a chance to make the playoff. When you
- 6:42look at the SEC, I like Georgia and Texas and Ole miss And I'll
- 6:46be honest with you, I like Tennessee Alabama. I do not like to
- 6:49make the playoff. I'm not buying what's going on at Missouri after a lot
- 6:55of stuff looking at this weekend, but I do like Georgia, Texas,
- 6:58Ole, miss and Tennessee. When you look at the Big ten, I
- 7:01like Oregon and Ohio State and Penn State as the top three teams there.
- 7:06And it's not Michigan and in the big in the pack in the Big twelve.
- 7:10I like Central Florida, believe it or not. I like Central Florida,
- 7:13like what Kansas State is doing. Utah is going to be right there.
- 7:15West Virginia is going to be right there. Again, that conference is
- 7:17going to be a lot of there's gonna be a lot of heavy lifting there.
- 7:21And then, uh, you know, when you look at the group
- 7:24of five, obviously Liberty is going to be the bell cow there. Memphis
- 7:28is going to have a shot at that. South Florida is gonna have a
- 7:30shot at that as well. All right, let's see here. Brett McMurphy
- 7:35reportsys buckle up. Barry UNV coach Barry Otam will celebrate the first day of
- 7:40his program spring practice by riding a live bull. The unique event, dubbed
- 7:46Horns and Helmets, will take place Saturday, March second, at the South
- 7:49Point Hotel. And now I have no idea if Barry Odam has any experience
- 7:54on a bull. You're ever ridden a bull, You're in a mechanical bull.
- 7:59Would you ida bull for charity? All right, he says he will.
- 8:03We may have to buckle him up. I am too old to be
- 8:07getting on bulls. Also, you know, Friday, interesting day. Later
- 8:13in the day, as the stuff on Tennessee versus the NCBA rolled out Judge
- 8:16Grant's injunction in Tennessee versus n CUB as federal court freezes on nil rules victure
- 8:22for the state of Tennessee and potentially the University of Tennessee. Also as Ross
- 8:26Challenger says, recruits and transfers can now accept you know, payments and all
- 8:31kinds of stuff. Says quote, Yes, they were already accepting inducements.
- 8:37But the ruling for other cripples the ncable as amateurism model. For reason that
- 8:41the SEC and Big ten and the NCA itself is examining other models. We
- 8:46can leave the ncaa off that their models don't don't that don't matter. Washington
- 8:50Husky's wide receiver romadunce the number three overall player on Move the Sticks Top fifty
- 8:58courtes CYBN and Rappaport and in contention to be the top wide receiver will run
- 9:01and test at the combine in Indianapolis. No Marvin Harrison Junior or elite neighbors
- 9:07only. O didn't say as far as the top guys, I wonder that
- 9:09will push him over the top. Will look at the top fifty prospects.
- 9:13Also, Arizona Cardinals. You know it's been a weird couple of years for
- 9:18the Arizona Cardinals. Well, this Kyler Murray thing. But they put an
- 9:22infograph out earlier that says our franchise QB and it's a big old in infograph
- 9:26of Kyler Murray. So Kyler Murray is going to be, at least for
- 9:31this year, the guy moving forward for the Arizona Cardinals. Resdolf says,
- 9:35Jake is their way. Ole Miss will be in the NCAA playoffs. They're
- 9:41already scheduled to be in the Super Bowl next year. Here, Jackson Dark
- 9:43is sliding into Taylor Swift DMS. I have no proof of the DM side,
- 9:50but I mean at this point, I guess anything's on the table.
- 9:54Yeah, Marvin Harrison Junior is likely the top wide receiving the DRAYT, but
- 10:01he's going to do it differently. He's not going to have an agent.
- 10:03He's going to Lamar Jackson route. No testing at the Combine and no testing
- 10:09on pro days. It's very interesting. It's a very weird combination coming out
- 10:13of college. From Marvin Harrison Junior, I don't know if his father's going
- 10:18to represent him. I have no idea what's going to go on here.
- 10:20Also, the Bengals informed star wide receiver T Higgins that they are franchised tagging
- 10:24him. So the franchise tag now officially is applied to Bengals wide receiver T
- 10:28Higgins. And again we'll get into some of the to Southern news on top
- 10:33quarterbacks go into the Combine and what that might look like. Also, LSU's
- 10:39Jade Daniels, one of the NFL's top quarterbacks prospects, plans to throw at
- 10:43his pro day rather than the Combine. He'll be in Indy for meetings,
- 10:48interviews, no workouts, just for the QAQC portion of the entire thing.
- 10:54So Pennix Junior from Washington plans to throw in front of scouts. Bo Nicks
- 10:58will throw in front of scouts, and JJ McCarthy will also throw in front
- 11:03of scouts. So you got those three, you know, obviously there's more
- 11:05than this, but of the top guys Nix, Pennix, McCarthy will work
- 11:11out, throw, do the whole thing at the combine where you've got Daniels
- 11:16and Kayler Williams who will not do that well. Brought to you by our

- 12:46eight. All right, let's see here Jake from Yazoo, a beaver and
- 12:50a bull. Never seen it, never heard of it. I'll pay to
- 12:52say I have though. Yeah, yeah, we'll see. We'll see if
- 12:56one day maybe we can do that. All right? Justin fields, if
- 13:01the Bears decide to trade the number one overall pick, what kind of return
- 13:05could they net from a QB needy team? Shall we say four hypothetical packages
- 13:11we'll get into that involves a recent top ten pick. Also with UMass and
- 13:18reported their move to the MAC. Only two independents remain in College of Sports
- 13:22as far as the Division I model, maybe Notre Dame in Yukon. It's
- 13:26becoming more and more difficult for programs not to join a conference, especially in
- 13:31the expanded college football playoff era. Notre Dame is only one that really can
- 13:35right now kind of navigate this whole deal. We'll see what happens with Yukon.
- 13:39I would expect that they'll probably jump back into a conference. It could
- 13:41be the MAC. It very well could be the Mac. Also a lot
- 13:45of talk about obviously storming of the field and the hurt player over the last
- 13:50several days, a lot of commentary on this. Alabama athletic director Gray Burn
- 13:54believes Forfeits could stop storming. You have two kids run out there, no
- 14:00and you have a sustained rush like what just happened the other day at week
- 14:03you lose the game, that will get people to stop. And I would
- 14:05tend to agree that, you know, if you want it to stop,
- 14:09that's what you're gonna have to have to do. Is because people just have
- 14:11no I don't even know the right words for it. I mean, they
- 14:18don't have any respects for other people that's out there. They just want to
- 14:20run, run, and just storm the field and storm the courts, and
- 14:22then people get hurt, and it's just it's a bad look. Speaking of
- 14:26basketball, college basketball, they be top twenty five, Houston still at number
- 14:30one, Perdue too, Yukon three, Tennessee four, Marquette at number five.
- 14:33You got Arizona, Kansas, Iowa State, North Carolina Duke in your
- 14:35top ten. Some other notables Auburn and number eleven, Alabama at fourteen,
- 14:41Kentucky sixteen in the SEC, got Florida at twenty four, south Ford at
- 14:46twenty five, and others getting votes on that. As we start to shift
- 14:50and look deeper into the class of twenty twenty five and recruiting. Bryce Underwood,
- 14:56quack quarterback out of Believeville, Michigan, is the number one player on
- 15:01the board. He has committed LSU. LSU quarterback commit Bryce Underwood is the
- 15:07number one guy for the class of twenty twenty five right now. Also,
- 15:13as of Friday afternoon, of the NCAA cannot control the transfer portal. NIL
- 15:18athletes have free reigns to negotiate collective deals. The NCAA is no more quote
- 15:22a power for head football coach told IM three there are no rules as far
- 15:28as the NCAA. Also speaking about quarterbacks in the combine coming up to the
- 15:35Las Vegas Raiders have an eye on Jayden Daniels ahead of the NFL scouting Combine
- 15:39per ESPN. They have a strong connection to from their Arizona State days and
- 15:43Antonio Pearce was an assistant there, so looks like the Raiders. You know,
- 15:48if they could pick their guy right now, it might be Jaden Daniels.
- 15:52And late Friday, UCLA has you know, or this was Friday,
- 15:58they hired Eric Beenemy as its new assistant head coach and offensive coordinator. Pre
- 16:03ESPN, he was most recently the OC of the Commanders and won two Super
- 16:07Bowls as the Chiefs offensive coordinator. So he heads towards college and Auburn transfer
- 16:12linebacker Cam Riley has committed to n C State. NC State is going to
- 16:17be a really good football team this year. I don't know that they are
- 16:19going to have the sauce to win the ACC but I think that they're going
- 16:26to be pretty darn good if I'm being honest. And n C State,
- 16:30I mean, they've traditionally over the last ten years, they've had some good
- 16:33football up there. But when you look at you know, kind of my
- 16:36power rankings for their NC State fourth in that league this year, Miami Florida
- 16:40State clemes in NC State recruiting wise. You know, when you kind of
- 16:45look at n C State, I mean they're in the top half. They're
- 16:47you know, fifth on my new transfer portal slash recruiting analytics that are out
- 16:52there. We'll have all of this out in the coming weeks. Quarterback play,
- 16:59you look at in gonna be one of the top quarterbacks. Grayson McCall,
- 17:02who transferred over from Coastal Carolina will be the quarterback for n C State.
- 17:07And you look at as far as where did he go? Oh there
- 17:12he is middle of the pack. Dave Dorian, he's the middle of the
- 17:15pack guy, he's your Dave Clawson, Dave Dorian, Pat Nardoosey Pittsburgh,
- 17:22Mac Brown, you know the ACC Mike Norvell is kind of the head of
- 17:26the class right now. And of course you look at Dabush Whinnie, he's
- 17:30still at the top, Jeff Brom Louisville, Rhet Lashley at SMU, and
- 17:34then Mario Christobal, so he's he's kind of under that realm. But I
- 17:38mean, I've got n C State this year right now. After over the
- 17:41weekend going nine to three, they have a Week two matchup against Tennessee.
- 17:48That'll be very interesting because both of these teams are kind of that second rung
- 17:52down of teams Tennessee trying to you know, break in. Obviously the phenom
- 17:56freshman quarterback this year as a starter. A lot expected out of Tennessee to
- 18:00have a big year. But in C State, Tennessee they play second week
- 18:04of the season. Also in C State plays Clemson on the road in week
- 18:08four, so they'll have two big ball games coming up early and they kind
- 18:11of run through this thing before they go to col get a bye week,
- 18:15and of course they'll play at North Carolina at the end of the year.
- 18:18Six O one eight, eight, five, three, seven, seven six.
- 18:19That is the Cowboy Maloney's tech sign. You can make your house home
- 18:22today with Calboy Maloney's thirteen locations around the state. And of course we're brought
- 18:26to you by Meris Star Casino other stuff that is out there. Brad Crawford
- 18:30identifies college football's potential breakthrough teams that we will get into all right, as
- 18:37we move forward here, let me see where was that. We'll get into
- 18:40these stories too as well. NCAA president says making student athletes employees will kill
- 18:45off ninety five percent of college sports. I do not believe that one bit.
- 18:49And then of course we'll get into Daniel Jeremia's top fifty twenty twenty four
- 18:53NFL Draft prospects ranking two point zero, who he has at the top,
- 18:56And of course Kayleb Williams. I'm interested to hear Chris Lane and you talk
- 19:00about this with Kayla Williams, Jade Daniels not throwing at the combine? What
- 19:03does that do or does it do anything at all? Is it? Is
- 19:07it a smart move? How do scouts? How do teams look at guys
- 19:12that will not compete or do not compete they're at the combine? Passa that
- 19:17Joe, Jake, You and Beaver forgot about? Billy Joel John Rice Plumbley
- 19:22is the real piano man. Will he make an NFL roster? I say
- 19:25yes, what say you? M he might make a roster. He's gonna
- 19:30have to. He's gonna be a free agent. B Is he gonna make
- 19:33an NFL roster? Oh? John Rice, John Rice Plumbley, What do
- 19:37you think you just do a mont Rossie. He's like, whatever, Yeah,
- 19:41he'll make a roster. We'll get it. We'll get into that.
- 19:44I mean, he's not gonna get drafted as a quarterback. He'll have an
- 19:47opportunity probably as a special teams type player, maybe a return guy, some
- 19:52of the type of of you know, kind of a specialist. I don't
- 19:55know that he's going to be your quasi Taysom Hill type guy. I don't
- 19:57think he's big enough to do that, but he'll he'll have an opportunity to
- 20:03make some Hey, Nebraska, Kansas, Amon college football teams twenty twenty four
- 20:07potentially breakthrough teams. I want to get into some of these what they're calling
- 20:11quote breakthrough. Several teams on this list. Some I agree with, some
- 20:17I do not agree with. Again, what defines a breakthrough? Is it
- 20:21competing for your conference championship? Or is it doing you know something that if
- 20:25you go from three wins to say six wins or eight wins. And I
- 20:27will tell you this after going through schedules of over the weekend, I do
- 20:30have Colorado going six and six. So I have Deon Sanders and the Buffalo's
- 20:33bowling this year. There's enough movement in the schedule where they can do that
- 20:40in this new Big twelve. And after going through the weekend, the Big
- 20:42Twelve is about as dicey as I thought it would be or could be.
- 20:47And we'll see how that plays out over the course of the year. We're
- 20:49brought to you by our friends at sound Communications online at soundcomav dot com.

- 21:14with the afternoon draw on you guess being in one o five point on the
- 21:15zone and online at the Zone one O five nine dot com. We're brought
- 21:41to you by the mhs a A officially become official today with the mhs A

- 21:53twenty four MHSA Basketball Championships here on your radio coming up starting thirdday, afternoon
- 22:00all day Friday, ten eight to twelve midnight or whatever it is, and
- 22:03then some way on Saturday. So Beaver's getting ready mentally to pull that up.
- 22:08Let's see here John Rice Plumbly. Joe asked about John Rice twenty twenty
- 22:15four NFL draft class, of course is pretty darn deep, right, And
- 22:21when you look at John Rice Plumbley six foot two hundred pounds quarterbacks, Central
- 22:25Florida says the very least Plumbly maybe one of the most intriguing quarterback prospects in
- 22:29the draft. Plumbly played outfielder for the Knights baseball team, and of course
- 22:33we'll be prepping to play quarterback. Let me do this real quick, all
- 22:41right, and let's see here as a true freshman blah blah blah. Let's
- 22:44see. I'm just trying to get where they say Plumbly scouting report. There
- 22:45we go. Strengths elite creative threat with springy athleticism and instant explosiveness in the
- 22:52open field. I like that, brisk agility, legitimate vertical speed at the
- 23:00second level, extending runs, has a decent arm. Let's see, does
- 23:04it give me weaknesses? Below average size as a creator, lack of high
- 23:11end mass limits his contact balance with in play strength. Current projection, plumble
- 23:18grades out as a late round or potential uh free agent. So yeah,
- 23:22I mean, I think that's probably gonna be somebody may take a shot with
- 23:26him on the seventh, you know, seventh round, But it looks like
- 23:32it's going to be more for preferred free agent six one eight nine seven one
- 23:37zero five nine. That is the Malone Roofing call line. EC Malone dot
- 23:41com is their website, and of course eight three three seven malone. You
- 23:45can always text a six or one eight eight five three seven seven six if
- 23:49you got a question or comment. All right, let me move back forward.
- 23:52So, Joe, Joe, there's your answer on John Rice. I
- 23:56like whoever broke this down though, can be a decisive when working across progressions.
- 24:00Needs more high end uh high end speed, more high end speed.
- 24:07So that's John Rice plumbley. And I don't know that he's gonna be at
- 24:11the combine or not. I got to get the full list. Here,
- 24:12we'll get the full list. Let's go to Gator Matt, Matt, Happy
- 24:18Monday. How are you? What's up man, John Rice plumbing? Uh,
- 24:23I think he's gonna make it NFL. Somebody like him, but his
- 24:27speed, he will hold fine. Something somewhere that you kind of remind who's
- 24:32the white kid that played for for for New England. For all the years.
- 24:36He's my Wes Welker. That's though, those the other most short guy
- 24:41who's that Beaver Welker and then U little slot receiver was I don't know,
- 24:52you know, Brady had all these utility players around him. It didn't Max
- 24:56Beaver could have been on that team. You know, they would have.
- 25:00They probably would have succeeded the cross game. Nobody's I don't know. It
- 25:06wasn't wronged anyway, But I think I think Plump will be in the NFL
- 25:11for a long time. Jake, what give me your top four at the
- 25:15end of the season for the SEC That's what I want to get into.
- 25:18And now that the dust is starting to settle in football, Oh, the
- 25:25top four at the end of the because we don't have divisions, no divisions.
- 25:29And let me tell you, the scheduling plays man. The scheduling now
- 25:33plays such a part. And it's not like no east to west to hide
- 25:37from. You can't hide anymore Georgia, Tennessee. I mean, it's wide
- 25:42open now and it's just the top. But at the end of the year,
- 25:45who are the top four? I mean, I guess we could talk
- 25:48about who's going to be in the championship game. But who are the top
- 25:51four? I'll give you mine. Go ahead, no particular order, but
- 25:59I'll put ole Miss first. Wink wink. Okay, all right, I'll
- 26:03go ahead and put Georgia in there. I'll put Georgia and I'm gonna say
- 26:07Texas, and as much as I hate to say this, as much as
- 26:11I hate to say it, I'm gonna put Albert in there. I just
- 26:17have a feeling. I don't know, I could be wrong. I think
- 26:18LSU's trash. It's over. As we've already said a thousand times for Alabama,
- 26:26it's over. And then somebody hates Florida in the scheduling department. But
- 26:30we'll hang up and listen. See it to you. Sixer one eight eight,
- 26:33five three, seven, seven six. That is a text line,
- 26:34of course, you can call it six er one eight nine to seven one
- 26:37zero five nine. Top four teams in the SEC. Now, I feel
- 26:41really confident about this, feel really really confident about this. Texas and Georgia
- 26:45at the top. They're the class. I think they are the class this
- 26:49year. I think they will play twice in twenty twenty four. I think
- 26:55they will split their ball games. Pick one. It doesn't matter. Texas
- 26:59win in Austin, Georgia wins the championship. Georgie wins in Austin, Texas
- 27:03wins the Championshi, they're gonna split. Then I go Ole Miss, they
- 27:06go Miss is the third best team in the league. And then I think
- 27:08Tennessee is the fourth best team in the league, followed by LSU, Oklahoma,
- 27:14and Auburn. Batt mentioned Auburn. It's the top seven. If you
- 27:18want to go top eight, throw Texas, A and M in there.
- 27:21And yes, I have Alabama on the other side of that. I have
- 27:25Alabama at eight and four of Florida, Matt, I have them going two
- 27:27and ten, three and nine. No better than four and seven or four
- 27:32and eight. It's gonna be a bad year for Florida. It's gonna be
- 27:33looking for a football coach. Why don't Florida go after Chadwell over there at
- 27:37Liberty. Dude's won everywhere he's been. But yeah, I got Texas,
- 27:41Georgia, Ole Miss, Tennessee as my top four in the SEC. All
- 27:45right, let's see here, Buffalo Chris Julie and Edelman. Edelman got two
- 27:52for Edelman on the guy who's looking for res Dog John Res Plumbley won't play
- 27:56anything but piano after the draft. You know, if I had to guess
- 28:02a guy that he reminds me of Michael Spurlock, Rember Spurlock played quarterback role,
- 28:07miss made it in the NFL. It's a kick returner, special teams.
- 28:11A guy kind of a niche niche. Do you say nich or niche
- 28:18niche? I almost say niche niche type player. Niche player could make her
- 28:23own special. He's not a maybe you have him in a quote package,
- 28:26which I hate that term anyway, where he comes in and he does.
- 28:30He's a guy once a year that's gonna throw backwards pass, but he's maybe
- 28:34got a spot. Maybe Dexter Plumbley could be more of a Taysom Hill type.
- 28:42I can't put him as taysoing Taysom Hill because he's not big like Taysom
- 28:45Hill, Right, I mean, Taysom Hill's a guy you can line up
- 28:48a tight end. You light him up in the backfield, you can light
- 28:52him up in the slot. Is John Rice Plumbley. Can you put him
- 28:56in a Taysom Hill Bill shaking her head, No, no, No,
- 29:00Taysom Hill rebel Greg Steve Tasker. Man, I haven't heard that name.
- 29:06Remember Steve Tasker. That's gonna bring you out on the mic. What do
- 29:11you think about Steve Tasker? What year did he play? Was that early?
- 29:18That was the early nineties? I remember him, Steve Tasker. He
- 29:22had the big helmet, didn't he What is helmet always bigger than everybody else's
- 29:26Buffalo bills? I don't remember, yep, yep, I don't remember his
- 29:30helmet specifically, though, seemed like for some reason Tasker had a bigger helmet
- 29:33than everybody else. Maybe I'm maybe I'm wrong on that, Greg, Greg,
- 29:37that's great. I like that posta Nick Joe, thank you, Jake
- 29:40Beave, give me the on jarp and unnamed Texter Matt is an idiot.
- 29:48We're often running on a Monday. What you got? You got anything on
- 29:49Tasker's helmet? It just looks like a helmet. I don't know why.
- 29:55I thought, for some reason his helmet was always bigger than everybody else's,
- 29:57like he had the safety helmet before there was a safety helmet. But yes,
- 30:03my top four teams in the SEC Georgia, Texas, Ole, Misson,
- 30:07Tennessee a lot of optimism in Norman, Oklahoma. A lot of optimism
- 30:14in Norman, Oklahoma. Also, you know, we'll see what LSU does.
- 30:18Auburn, they've got to get their quarterback situation right. Texas A and
- 30:22M. They're gonna be Texas A and M. Alabama and the course.
- 30:26You know a lot of people are how on Missouri. I've got Missouri going
- 30:29eight and four this year? They could go nine and three? What you
- 30:32got over there? Anything Missouri at nine and three, eight and four and
- 30:36then down the run will go Dexter. That was Greg Kelso with the big
- 30:41helmet. I think you're right, Yes, I think you're right. I
- 30:47think it was one of those guys with a big helmet, all right.
- 30:52Two four seven sports dot Com Nebraska Kansas among college football teams for breakout teams.
- 30:57What do you got over there? There was? Who is that Kelso?
- 31:03That's who I'm thinking of. He did for some reason, he had
- 31:07an over I knew it was a Buffalo player. Why did he have that
- 31:11oversized helmet? That always was weird to me back when I was watching him
- 31:15as a kid. I didn't know if it was a I had no idea,
- 31:18no idea, but he had a bigger helmet much bigger helment than the
- 31:23rest of the team. Several programs outside of the early college football playoff projections
- 31:27deserved more love. I had a spring practice to be considered the quote breakout
- 31:32label from two four seven. Teams cannot be ranked inside the top fifteen for
- 31:36the two four seven Sports rankings ahead of the spring practice. More of a
- 31:40team's coming off conference championship seasons were ineligible as well, despite falling out of
- 31:45the excuse me under the outside the top fifteen distinction, like Florida State.
- 31:49So we'll get into some of these after the break who could make a run
- 31:53and maybe eight teams that they have under the radar could be a thorn in
- 31:57the side of the perceived favorites this year. We are brought to you by
- 32:01our friends at Burgers Blues Barbecue. Three locations Brandon, Madison, new location

- 33:47this year, A lot of money ole Miss right now eleven to one fifth
- 33:53best odds to win the national title, right there with Alabama. And again
- 33:55I told you last week for the first time in a long long time,
- 34:00maybe forever. I mean, I think ole Miss those eleven ones are not
- 34:04the same. If I had to play one of those, I'm playing ole
- 34:07Miss. I'm not playing Alabama. Playing ole Miss. You can get Georgia,
- 34:13they're the leader in the clubhouse three and a half to one, Ohio
- 34:15State two at five and a half to one. Texas Oregon. You get
- 34:19LSU at fourteen to one if you believe in them, Notre Dame at fourteen
- 34:22to one. Charlie Boy on the Cowboy Maloney's text line, the caller might
- 34:25have been thinking of Edelman for the Patriots. Yeah, I'm not sure who
- 34:30Matt was talking about. Several of those guys. If you remember, Belichick
- 34:34went into the lacrosse world to pick up a couple of those guys. Res
- 34:37Dog, that's because his body was smaller than everyone else on the field,
- 34:44John Rice Plumbley and Rebel greg I think that was the player that ran down
- 34:49the Dallas Cowboys scoop and score and knocked the ball loose from behind on the
- 34:53two point on the two yard line. Tasker that is, I think you're
- 34:55right. You may be right on that, Greg, all right, some
- 34:59of these teams teams, and we'll have Chris Landry coming up in the next
- 35:00segment. We'll go through a lot of these quarterbacks and what's going on at
- 35:04the combine all this stuff. And my good friend Cliff said that he hopes
- 35:10my college or my top four SEC teams are wrong. So yeah, I
- 35:15have Georgia and Texas and Ole Miss and Tennessee right there at the top.
- 35:19That would be my top four all right, teams that can surprise a little
- 35:22bit. South Florida is getting a lot of love in the off season,
- 35:25and rightfully so. I mean, this is a really good, a nice
- 35:30South Florida team. You could pick any group of five team with a quality
- 35:35roster that'll have a shot at striking goal. But there's a potential contender not
- 35:39named Liberty Boise State two Lander Memphis flying under the radar at South Florida.
- 35:44This is the only group of five program that signed a top fifty recruiting class
- 35:49and Byron Brown returns at quarterback after twing forty one hundred and one yards of
- 35:53total offense and thirty eight touchdowns last fall. Now, how good is Byron
- 35:58Brown? Well, let's look because I chalked through what I'm telling you,
- 36:01Man, I put through in a lot of work over the weekend on this
- 36:05stuff. And let's go over here and look at quarterbacks for twenty twenty four.
- 36:08And when you go into the group of five, and the way I
- 36:10break up quarterbacks is, you know, there's a group of five and then
- 36:14obviously the Power five, and I separate the two in rankings, and then
- 36:19you know, you can look at a collective. But not all things are
- 36:22equal, right, Because you take Cadence Salter at Liberty, He's my top
- 36:28group of five quarterback for twenty twenty four. Liberty has a very good shot
- 36:32of going undefeated and being that team that twelve seed in the expanded Playoff.
- 36:39My number one quarterback in Power five is Dylan Gabriel at Oregon by just a
- 36:45little bit over Chandler Rogers and Shade or Sanders Chandeler Rodgers at cow So.
- 36:50But it's hard to compare the two, so I break them out because Liberty
- 36:52schedule obviously is much different than those in the Power Five. But anyway,
- 36:57South Florida their quarterback Iron Brown, I have as the sixth best quarterback in
- 37:01the group of five this year. App states Joey Aguilar as my number two
- 37:06guy. He is. He put up some monster numbers last year. Seth
- 37:08Hanigan from Memphis at number three, Brett Gabbert at Miami of Ohio, and
- 37:13then caller Belby Western Michigan. Then you got Byron Brown, one of the
- 37:17best in the country. But he's a big reason South Florida's getting a lot
- 37:21of love. He threw thirty eight touchdowns or had thirty eight total touchdowns last
- 37:25year. Top White out Shawn Atkins is back, as well as various various
- 37:30single season school records as a junior. Now they'll probably be in the championship
- 37:36game in the AC with Memphis, but they're there. I mean, they're
- 37:38a team that everything goes right. And don't forget this too. Now,
- 37:45this is a South Florida team. If we look into scheduling for next year
- 37:50or this coming year, Alabama went down and lost a close one or won
- 37:58a close one, excuse me, they play South Florida in the second week,
- 38:00they'll host them in Tuscaloosa. But South Florida is not going to be
- 38:05scared of Alabama. My god, could you imagine South Florida walking into Tuscaloosa
- 38:08and beating Kaly into boorn week two? What in the that whole thing over
- 38:13there would just go sideways south quick, all right? SMU SMU formerly the
- 38:19AC, they move into the ACC now and SMU could be a noise maker
- 38:25in the ACC if the Mustangs escape a front loaded schedule including matchups with TCU,
- 38:30Florida State, and Louisville. Preston Stone was one of the top football
- 38:35passers. Is a sophomore twenty eight touchdowns, thirty one and ninety seven yards.
- 38:38The personnel at skill position around him as well is changing a bit,
- 38:42but the air raids scheme that they run works and it should be one of
- 38:45the better in the ACC. Now. If I go over here and look
- 38:49at SMU in the newly ACC right now, I mean SMU is a middle
- 38:55of the pack team as far as power my power rankings concerned, they're right
- 39:00there. If you look at middle of the pack, that's going to be
- 39:01Virginia Tech, Kyle Smu, Georgia Tech picts. You know, Pittsburgh starts
- 39:05to fall off at that point, but quarterback wise, absolutely correct SMU,
- 39:10Preston Stone. I have him as my third best ACC quarterback. Number one
- 39:15Chandler Rogers California, number two Grayson McCall, both transfer quarterbacks, followed by
- 39:21Preston Stone, cam Ward at Miami, Kyle McCord Syracuse, DJU of Angola
- 39:25a Florida State. That's my top six, and then throw in Chyron Drones
- 39:29from Virginia Tech. He's an absolute stud at Virginia Tech. He put up
- 39:32monster numbers last year for the Hokies. But when I look at SMU this
- 39:37year in the expanded role in the ACC, I have them going eight and
- 39:43four this year. They do have a really front loaded schedule. They'll play
- 39:47BYU early second week, they get a bye week, they take on TCU,
- 39:51that's the big rivalry there in Dallas. Florida State is their first game
- 39:54that they will play. They will host Florida State at Louisville, get another
- 39:59break, and then the schedule lightens up a little bit at Stanford at Duke
- 40:01Pitt, Boston College at Virginia and cow So. I mean, this is
- 40:06a really good SMU program. I think that they will be better along the
- 40:08way, and I don't know that they're ready to compete for the a SEC
- 40:13this year, but we'll see Texas Tech. It seems like every year Texas
- 40:16Tech is going to get a lot of love. Bell Cow's like taj boy
- 40:22brookscuse me, returns in the backfield fifteen and forty one yards, five star
- 40:27freshman wide receiver Michaeh Hudson. You know, they've got a really really good
- 40:32set of skill talent. The problem for Texas Tech, you know, well,
- 40:37you know, well, the let me say this, the blessing for
- 40:39Texas Tech and everybody in the Big twelves Oklahoma, Texas is gone. But
- 40:43Texas Tech this year. You know, in my Big twelve power rankings sixth,
- 40:49I've got Utah one, Central Florida two, TCU, I've got Colorado
- 40:53at four, believe it or not. After work and do all this,
- 40:57Baylor five, Texas Tech six. Now, obviously you got throwing Kansas State,
- 41:00They're right there. Kansas is right there, Iowa State's right there.
- 41:04It's a very very tight there top to bottom here in the Big twelve.
- 41:07But for Texas Tech, I've got going eight and four. They've got a
- 41:12pretty loose schedule. Early Aveilene Christian at Washington State, North Texas, Arizona
- 41:15State, Cincinnati, and then at Arizona and they could go undefeated in that
- 41:20stretch. Then they pick it up a little bit. Baylor, TCU on
- 41:22the road, Iowa stayed on the road in Colorado before finishing it out with
- 41:25Oklahoma State and West Virginia. I mean, in terms of schedules, this
- 41:30would be the easiest schedule in the Southeastern Conference. One the easiest schedule in
- 41:35the Southeastern Conference. Oh, let's see here real quick. Monkey's Riding dogs?
- 41:40What about James Madison. They lost their coach, right, yes,
- 41:43James Madison coach. He sorry about that. I missed that Monkey's Riding Dogs.
- 41:46He has gone on to I'll find I can't remember exactly where he's at,
- 41:52Troy, let me look. But yes, James Madison did lose their
- 41:55coach, but they supposedly got another good one coming through coming up the ranks.

- 43:09lines, everything you need. Of course, Chris is en roots or maybe
- 43:14even maybe they're now getting ready for the NFL Combine. Chris, welcome in,
- 43:16sir. How are you kick? Got you doing man? Man,
- 43:20I'm doing good. I'm doing good. Just kind of talking through some of
- 43:22these quarterbacks at the combine and some notes. What is your schedule through all
- 43:28of this madness here in the next few weeks? Well, here this next
- 43:31week, next a couple of days or the workouts start on Thursday, but
- 43:38we've got some scouting meetings on a couple of boards. So the scouting combines
- 43:45are like a convention. So everybody in the NFL's here. I mean,
- 43:50the trainers have their convention here this week. The video directors, the team
- 43:57doctors, the agents have them, you know, so the player personnel director
- 44:02meetings of the boards that I'm on, we'll be discussing some things pregning it
- 44:07to that and it's just done because everybody's here. So that a lot of
- 44:12meetings, and then obviously the players begin to come in, even though they're
- 44:15starting to work out on Thursday, they come in a little bit. The
- 44:17group that's play work out on Thursday get in and it'll be a lot of
- 44:22interviews with the teams and whatnot, and then they run them through what's called
- 44:25kind of the car marks. I guess for the media, it's kind of
- 44:29changed. When I was running it, it was a little different. We
- 44:30didn't have the media in and we kind of got them in, you know,
- 44:35in and out quicker. Now they stay here longer and they take part
- 44:38of the media. And I think a lot of it has to do Jake
- 44:40with the advent of the NFL Network. When that started, O guys ten
- 44:45twelve years ago, they said, hey, this is great sell and great
- 44:49marketing for the NFL. So from a marketing standpoint, it's good. Probably
- 44:53we get less out of it as football people than we used to because it's
- 44:57a little bit more as I like to call a dog and pony show and
- 45:00then it used to be, and you know, just just kind of the
- 45:04way it's it's gone. Chris, I've got a lot of questions about the
- 45:07combine. I just love this time of year, as you know, this
- 45:09is I call it hope season because that's kind of what it is. Like.
- 45:14I mean, it's like recruiting in college, but this is the NFL.
- 45:15So you know these this transition for players to the next level. Let
- 45:20me ask you this. First off, Caleb Williams and Jaden Daniels are not
- 45:24going to throw or work out at the combine. They've chosen possible pro days.
- 45:29Marvin Harrison Junior says, Hey, I'm not throwing. I don't know,
- 45:31I'm not gonna have an agent, I'm not working out. Public perception,
- 45:35they look at something like that, go wow, that's that's not good
- 45:38from a scouting front office, you know, inside the building type deal.
- 45:44Is that a positive? Is that a negative? Or is it just is
- 45:46it kind of just a it's a nothing burger. It's more the latter.
- 45:52I mean, it's it was a problem when they first started to do it.
- 45:57Now everybody does. It's kind of like remember when I think Kristin McCaffrey
- 46:02might have been the first big name to say he's not playing in the Bowl
- 46:05Game, or remember he was playing in the sun Ball and people, oh,
- 46:07oh my god, you know, And now what's reaction when people say
- 46:13they're not going to play there. Now they're like, oh, wow,
- 46:15so and so is going to play. It's part of what's happened. First
- 46:20of all, let me say this when we started the combine back in nineteen
- 46:22eighty two. There's one reason we did it, and it's still ninety five
- 46:29percent of the reason that we're here, and you will not hear or even
- 46:34see anything about this on TV. It's the medical physicals. That's the only
- 46:38reason why we started the combine. That's it, period stop. In the
- 46:43discussion, once we had him there, we said, well, let's maybe
- 46:45put them through a few drills. So all of what's kind of built of
- 46:49that. If players don't work out, I don't like it. I wish
- 46:52they would compete and work out. But if all the players came and all
- 46:57they did was took their medicals and left, it's worth its weight and goal.
- 47:01It is the number one, the number two, the number three,
- 47:06the number four, the number five, most important things. It's it.
- 47:10It's I can't stress it more than that. But that's not what people talk
- 47:15about. And because we have workouts, we'd want them to work out.
- 47:19I tell guys all the time, Yeah, you can do what you want,
- 47:22but you're not fooling us. So if you know, for example,
- 47:25you want to bulk up and you do your lifting here, but then you're
- 47:30gonna lose fifteen pounds and then run when you're lighter. Well, they can
- 47:36fall off paternal proc yesterday we know that means you're gonna run differently, and
- 47:38we got to convert. All the time, the agents are telling them,
- 47:43don't do this, don't do that. Now. The big thing this year,
- 47:45we were discussing it today. Now they don't want to take the intelligence
- 47:50tests and look, for some reason, somebody has leaked that information. It's
- 47:53got out to the press, which is to me abhorrent. I mean,
- 47:58you don't don't give that information out. So there's a lot of I won't
- 48:02do this, I won't do that. Look, if you're gonna work out
- 48:06at your pro day, I tell guys this, and they asked, Look,
- 48:08if you work out here, it's and you do everything well, you
- 48:14can breathe easy. Everybody in the league has seen you. And you don't
- 48:17need to do anything on your pro day. You don't work out here.
- 48:22You're gonna go on your pro day. You better be faster, your workout
- 48:25better be infinitely better. And you know what about I don't care. If
- 48:30you're who you are, you're gonna have you know, maybe a tenth of
- 48:36the people in the league seeing you. Why because they're gonna be pro days
- 48:42at USC and Michigan and Clinton on the same day. I mean, well,
- 48:45everybody has to spread out, every scout, every coach, A couple
- 48:51of them. Know. Mike McCarthy's not going Cup. I don't want to
- 48:54diagrems. Just about everybody's there, including all the doctor's trainers owners to have
- 49:00you. Now, what's happened over the years is some of this is like
- 49:02we've got some coaches like Mike McCarthy's not going, he's putting in helping Mike
- 49:07Zimmer put in the new defense. It's becoming because of this, and because
- 49:14they're not working out as much, and the interviews are being cut and all
- 49:16that, some people are electing not to come, which is tells you you
- 49:22know kind of where it's headed. But yeah, it's the look. I
- 49:28want guys to compete and work out. Am I gonna not? Am I
- 49:30gonna not draft the guy because it didn't work out? No, But I
- 49:34also tell them if you have an awful pro day, I mean, I'm
- 49:38gonna go back to the tape. Here's the thing. The workouts don't tell
- 49:43you how good a football player is. The tape and the two, three,
- 49:47four years that he's played in college. Does the tape helps you to
- 49:52affirm what you see with the workout and vice versa. It's when the tape
- 49:58in the film doesn't match, which is only about eight ten percent of the
- 50:01time, that's when you got to go back and say, oh, let
- 50:04me go look at Jake again, why doesn't the tape and the workout match?
- 50:09And then that helped. So it helps you to understand and a lot
- 50:14of things are misunderstood. The intelligence test doesn't tell you whether you're intelligent.
- 50:19It just tells you how you learn. So you know, so like CJ.
- 50:22Straub quote unquote didn't test well, it didn't affect him. But it's
- 50:27people in the media have come out and said, oh, well, you
- 50:30see it does tests doesn't matter. It does matter because during the test you
- 50:34learn how he learns. He's not as much of a reading visual learner.
- 50:39He's much of an auditory learner. Anybody that's been at school knows that every
- 50:44teacher they do tests like this. Some have to hear it, some have
- 50:46to see it on the board, some just like to read it. It's
- 50:51these tests help you to learn going in what a guy is, in what
- 50:58he does and how you he best will learns the medical stuff is you know,
- 51:01so all of those things are important, but it doesn't make or break
- 51:06it, and it can help a guy more than it can hurt them.
- 51:10So I guess if you've got twenty guys that really help themselves and the others
- 51:15don't, well, then maybe you could say that the ones that they didn't
- 51:20hurt themselves, but they didn't help themselves, maybe there's something lost there.
- 51:23I think that's fair, which is why I tell everybody, go work out,
- 51:29Go have a they'll screw up your workout, go compete, doesn't matter.
- 51:34We can have the workout on the campus and you can do it better.
- 51:37But if you only do it once, man, you know, and
- 51:40you don't run well or you total a hamstring, you know, there's gonna
- 51:44be some questions and it might make the difference between you're going ninth in twenty
- 51:47fifth. I mean, you just don't know, because it's not that you're
- 51:52you're holding it against the guy. But if you've got more information and more
- 51:55certainty about player A that you are interested in hiring and drafting, well you're
- 52:02going to be more comfortable than maybe the guy that you know that maybe doesn't
- 52:07do all the things Chris. Is the NFL looking to get rid of the
- 52:09intelligence test that I hear that correctly, or is that a push from the
- 52:14area. There's it's a lot of push, and I think there's a lot
- 52:17of talk. A lot of these unions is the labor unions, and you
- 52:21know, I don't want to get into what we're in society. I think
- 52:24I think the the problem to me is that we need to find who the
- 52:30heck and I think it's coming from. It's got to be coming from.
- 52:35I mean, it could be a player agent trying to hurt another player.
- 52:37I don't know, but it has to emanate. I'm going to tell you
- 52:42when when when When I was with the Oilers and Titans, there's only only
- 52:45one person that had our gender manager and not even the owner had the access
- 52:50to the information. We didn't share it. Somebody inside an organization, I
- 52:54believe, is sharing it. And I think it's sometimes nefarious to try to
- 52:59make manipulate who could be there and whatnot. I think it's you still need
- 53:05to know about a player's capacity to learn and willingness to learn, and maybe
- 53:10the certain test. I think certain tests are not very good and I think
- 53:15others that are How a guy learns is critical, particularly at you know,
- 53:22the more critical positions like quarterbacks. Don't tell me that it's not important.
- 53:25How you got to teach the guy. Now you've got to learn even on
- 53:29defense. The complexities of being able to learn it. All those things are
- 53:31very important. But how you do it and what tests you use, I
- 53:37think that can be debated. Which ones are more useful than others. So
- 53:40there is discussions a lot of discussions about where we need to go with it.
- 53:44Chris Landry on your radio, Monday edition of the program, talking Combine.
- 53:46Good stuff on the Combine, we'll get to some specific players and segment
- 53:50two. We're brought to you by BCI People dot Com six or one four

- 54:23one five nine four three five four zero that six or one five nine four
- 54:28three five four zero. Let MT Insurance Group shop quotes on your auto,
- 54:32home or business. Chris Andrey Segment two on the Way to the Combine,
- 54:37got a lot of work coming up in his camp over the next several weeks
- 54:40as they continue to chalk through everything. At twenty twenty four, Chris,
- 54:44I'm to ask you about some of these quarterbacks, not the ones that are
- 54:46you know, coming off the board, probably one or two like Drake May
- 54:50and Kevin Williams. We'll see what happens with Jaden Daniels. A lot of
- 54:53buzz around JJ McCarthy, me and Beaver have been joking and cutting up about
- 54:58this, just because Baber's not sold on McCarthy. I you know, Harball
- 55:01obviously vouched McCarthy and I'm paraphras and called him just a few weeks ago,
- 55:07Hey, he's the best quarterback in the in the class. He's, you
- 55:09know, the best quarterback ever Michigan. You're starting to see a lot of
- 55:13at least and you explained this to us well last year about you know,
- 55:15the media side versus what's really going on behind closed doors. JJ McCarthy,
- 55:21are you buying or selling? What does he bring to the table is the
- 55:23buzzreel competitor, He's smart. I think he's the leader. I think what
- 55:30you're seeing and I wouldn't be surprised at all if he goes somewhere late first
- 55:36round. Here's what will happen, and happens every year. The quarterback.
- 55:44The draft, in player evaluation and acquisition in particular, is no different than
- 55:50any profession. It's supply and demand. They're not enough quality quarterbacks. So
- 55:54you have guys and McCarthy would be one of them that you know might be
- 55:59a good, good player at the next level that might develop. Any chance
- 56:04that a guy has, he's gonna be you know, his stock's gonna rise.
- 56:08It it is. It just happens every year. There's just not enough
- 56:13of them. Is he in the category of a Jaden Daniels. No.
- 56:16In my opinion, I think Michael Pennox has got a lot of ability.
- 56:21I think you'll see You'll see five and I wouldn't be surprised maybe six quarterbacks
- 56:27in the first round, just because supplying de Man and remember there's only going
- 56:30to be anywhere from eighteen to twenty two second round graded players in any draft.
- 56:37We got thirty two picks in the first round, so you can figure
- 56:39that there are ten to twelve, maybe as much as fourteen players that will
- 56:45be drafted in the first round with predominantly second round grades around the league.
- 56:49So just do the math. Anybody with second round we'll take him in the
- 56:52second round. He can't take him a second round. Guys, the second
- 56:54round grade that the quarterbacks are going to go to the top of the list.
- 56:59So you're going to have, by just pure matt a dozen to fourteen
- 57:02second round graded players go in the first round. So I think McCarthy will
- 57:07be one of them. But I think the reason why people are talking about
- 57:10him the success they had this year, and I think maybe people just like
- 57:15to move on to different stories. You know, they've talked Caitlind Williams and
- 57:20Drake May and probably Jaden Daniels a bunch. You're going to see more talk
- 57:23about Michael Pennix and JD. McCarthy just because people are looking for something different
- 57:29to talk about. Chris Landry talking Senior Bowl, NFL future quarterbacks. Landry
- 57:34football dot Com also want to exit Landry football. Spencer Ratler another one that's
- 57:37intriguing to me because, you know, a couple of years ago, he
- 57:40was projected by you know, the focuses out there and all the NFL think
- 57:45tanks is the number one prospect on the board. That summer he was at
- 57:47Oklahoma, things went south, Lincoln Riley turned to cald Williams. The rest
- 57:52is history. But then he comes back, has a really good Senior Bowl.
- 57:55Now he's starting to get some buzz behind him. Does he have a
- 58:00future in the league, Well, same thing. He'll get a chance,
- 58:04and how successful he'll be, we'll see. I think a lot of it
- 58:07depends on where he goes, how he's developed. I think somebody like him
- 58:14that will be drafted outside of the first round, maybe in the right situation
- 58:21where he can sit and develop. See a lot of these guys, whether
- 58:22they make it and how well there's how successful they are is in direct correlation
- 58:29to the situation that they're in. What's the talent around them is their coaching
- 58:34stability. That's how you develop. You can kind of sit and learn a
- 58:37little bit. And I think he could find himself in a situation where if
- 58:42he he you know, is in that type situation, he may have a
- 58:45better chance than somebody that's thrown to the wolves, so to speak. Yeah.
- 58:50There. It's also one of the reasons when I and it drives me
- 58:52nuts when these guys that do these things, of these high school prospects,
- 58:59Oh yeah, the future first round pick. You don't know who the heck
- 59:01that's so far down the road. I mean, most of those guys don't
- 59:05even pan out in college. A lot of the physical skills, it's very
- 59:10easy. It's how a guy develops and how motivated is. Everybody says they're
- 59:16motivated, but you know, it's not what you say, it's what you
- 59:20do. I want to see Spencer in a better coached environment and see if
- 59:27he can become more proficient in being able to see the field make better decisions,
- 59:31because I think the inconsistency is a problem, but I think there are
- 59:36reasons for that beyond just his issues that he has to deal with. Chris,
- 59:40I would never hold you to this just for fun. Who and then
- 59:44we're always there's always one or two Who are we sleeping on it? Is
- 59:46it Sam Hartman coming out of Notre Dame? Is it potentially Leary who had
- 59:52a very you know, yawning performance at Kentucky. Is it possibly, you
- 59:57know, Joe Milton still gets a lot of maybe the light bulb comes on
- 1:00:00for him, finally, Bo Nicks, maybe a Michael Pratt. Who are
- 1:00:05we kind of sleeping on here? One or two guys? Well, I
- 1:00:09think that Michael Pennix has a chance to be special. So that's someone that
- 1:00:15would be a player that maybe people I would if I tell you, and
- 1:00:24I'm not saying this is the case, if I tell you he was the
- 1:00:27best player quarterback out of this draft when we look back in three years from
- 1:00:31now, that wouldn't surprise me. Now it doesn't. I don't expect him
- 1:00:36to go that high. I don't think he moves quite as well, but
- 1:00:38his ability, his natural instincts to get the ball to spots. I think
- 1:00:45he's still more of a pocket guy. But that's someone that I think people
- 1:00:50don't realize just how good he is. I think he's not good. I
- 1:00:54think he's great. So he would be somebody that I would say that maybe
- 1:00:59people are sleeping on to some degree because I think people know who he is
- 1:01:05in terms of you know, I'm not crazy about Joe Milton, I would
- 1:01:07say that somebody like Jordan Travis, you know, might be somebody that would
- 1:01:14have a chance to be developed down the road. I think Sam Hartman can
- 1:01:17be a serviceable guy. I think Michael Pratt had some abilities. You mentioned
- 1:01:21those guys. I would also say that in the right system, I think
- 1:01:24bo Nicks would be a guy that in most drafts would be given a lot
- 1:01:29more play. I think he's got the right type of pedigree and the work
- 1:01:34ethic to be developed. You put him with a guy like a Sean Payton,
- 1:01:37you could have something special. So I would say the two former PAC
- 1:01:40twelve guys, Bo Nicks and Michael Fennix, that are guys that you know
- 1:01:45of, the under the radar guys that just have some mobility. I don't
- 1:01:51think they're going to make it. A quarter Bradley out of South Alabama's intriguing,
- 1:01:54but I don't think he's gonna make it. I mentioned Jordan Travis,
- 1:01:58I'm not definitely would not put Jill Milton in that list. I do not
- 1:02:02guys that are that inaccurate will never make it. I would not he would
- 1:02:07not. I wouldn't be comfortable with him in the UFL much less the NFL.
- 1:02:12But we'll see before we get you out of here. Well, I
- 1:02:16guess two questions. One. I got a question from a listener about Dayton
- 1:02:20Wade. He's an ole Miss wide receiver. I he called fifty five balls,
- 1:02:22eight hundred and thirty yards, four touchdowns. Receiver is so deep now,
- 1:02:29I mean there's, boy, there are good ones all over the place.
- 1:02:31You take a guy like Wade, who was second on the list,
- 1:02:35only one catch behind Trey Harris for ole Miss. Right, you know those
- 1:02:37types of guys though, I mean, I don't want to say they're dime
- 1:02:39a dozen, but man, there's a lot of good receivers to pick from.
- 1:02:44Exactly. It's supplying to man. It's like the conversation they have about
- 1:02:47running backs. Well, the running backs are not important, No, no,
- 1:02:51no, they're every bit is important, as they always have been.
- 1:02:53The difference is is there are more of them. So when I talk about
- 1:02:58supplying de man, well, if you can, if you've got you know,
- 1:03:01fifteen guys that could maybe do certain things. Some that are a little
- 1:03:06bit better blockers, some are a little bit better receivers, some are a
- 1:03:08little bit better inside runners, some that are a little bit better in space.
- 1:03:13Well you got they're more fungible, they're more guys that you can go.
- 1:03:16I mean, it's it's like anything else. If you've got two airlines,
- 1:03:21you're gonna get gouge for your plane ticket, but if they've got twenty,
- 1:03:23the price is gonna come down. And anything in the consumer. So
- 1:03:28there's a lot of receivers. It's a you know, it's the game of
- 1:03:31football at from the high school level on up is you have a lot more
- 1:03:36of those guys. So they're not enough roster spots to where it's going to
- 1:03:40be very difficult to differentiate for those type of guys. Backs and in receivers,
- 1:03:45but you know, quarterbacks, it's not the case. Not the real
- 1:03:51good ones. And and to me, the big guys, the big premiere
- 1:03:55you know, pass rushers, interior, defensive line and offensive tackles. Those
- 1:04:01guys, they are hard. The supply and demand factor are in favor of
- 1:04:06the players. They're not enough of them, but receivers are not. I
- 1:04:10think the young man will be somebody will be in a camp, you know,
- 1:04:15maybe a late pick. But when you start looking at the in stacking
- 1:04:18them all up, there's a whole bunch of guys. You're right that kind
- 1:04:21of look alike. Make sure to get him on x Landry Football also Landry

- 1:06:27We'll get to Doug Kyle little baseball update at five point fifteen. Tim
- 1:06:30Jake'll always do a great job. But not a word about State stomping LSU
- 1:06:33over the weekend. Be fair, Tim, it's a three hour show,
- 1:06:36hanging there, hanging there. Do you have a breakdown of this LSU basketball
- 1:06:42game for Tim? I know that you're a now you're in full basketball mode,
- 1:06:46and I know you're combing through all of this data for March madness.
- 1:06:49Oh you know me? Yeah, neat win against the team that has a
- 1:06:55losing conference record and is one game over five hundred overall. Josh Hubbard drops
- 1:07:01thirty two over the weekend as he has done a great job. Tot Lou
- 1:07:05Smith nineteen points, also Keishn Murphy eleven, so three dogs in double digits.
- 1:07:12You look at Missippi State again, SEC basketball? Where did there it
- 1:07:17is standings as far as basketball state now in the you know eight and six,
- 1:07:21nineteen and eight, they've won five in a road. Dogs have won
- 1:07:25five in a row. Now they'll get Kentucky this week. Are we off
- 1:07:28there for that early time? Is a ball game? Oh yeah, we're
- 1:07:30so. Five thirty pre game tomorrow tomorrow, so we'll go two hours tomorrow,
- 1:07:35five thirty pre game. Dogs are eleven and two at home. Cats
- 1:07:41are five and three on the road. State now two and six on the
- 1:07:44road. They were over and have won. I think back to back SEC
- 1:07:47ballgains Missouri LSU, there's six and zero neutral site ball games. And what's
- 1:07:53interesting about this state has now this ought to make you feel pretty good about
- 1:07:58state as far as the SEC tournament is can concerned. Maybe, and the
- 1:08:00NCAA tournament. State has the best neutral site record in the Southeastern Conference at
- 1:08:05six and oh. South Carolina's three and oh. Now, some of these
- 1:08:10are not the same, like, for instance, Kentucky at two and one.
- 1:08:12I would assume that's going to be some pretty good competition. Early in
- 1:08:15the year. Tennessee, we know, played some pretty good competition as well,
- 1:08:16two and two. South Carolina's three and oh on the neutral site.
- 1:08:20And well, I'm not worried about the Georgia and the rest of them.
- 1:08:24Let's see here and the unnamed texture asking about Dayton Wade, Yeah, I
- 1:08:30mean Chris said later round pick. There are so many receivers and so many
- 1:08:32good ones. I mean, there's just but there's a lot of need for
- 1:08:36receivers. I mean you think about in the NFL, some programs will take
- 1:08:42organizations seven, eight, nine, depending on what I mean. Remember,
- 1:08:45you only got a fifty three men roster, so you can't just front load
- 1:08:48with eleven twelve a lot of receivers. Possum, Nick Joe, you can
- 1:08:54textas six or one eight five three seven seven six. That is the couple
- 1:08:57Melenny's text line, Colorado will be tomut the Buffalo's two and four, three
- 1:09:00and three at best. After six games, Dion sees the riding on the
- 1:09:04wall and gets Shador to take a dive. He blames the season on his
- 1:09:10injury. It was all about getting his boys in d one to the NFL.
- 1:09:15He quits due to medical reasons, then follows his kid around the NFL
- 1:09:20uh bugging us on Sundays. Wow, Joe has just predicted his prediction of
- 1:09:26what's gonna happen over the next year for Dion and Shadoor. What do you
- 1:09:29think about this, sir? Might as well? I like I like this.
- 1:09:36How he's mapped out the entire future for this finds me. This thing
- 1:09:43I watched just yesterday. I thought it was so ridiculous because it was Sunday.
- 1:09:48I was not doing anything. Came across this thing on YouTube some dude.
- 1:09:55It was like a twelve minute video. What I think would have happened
- 1:10:00if Kurt Cobain had not died. This man was making up I think he
- 1:10:04would have released his first solo record on March third, nineteen ninety six.
- 1:10:12The first single, talk to Me hit number one. What they had getting
- 1:10:18very specific. So Joe's inventing this too, but I like Joe's much better
- 1:10:23than that I just described. Well, was that other guy on the Kobaine
- 1:10:27thing? Was he and Casey Kaysem's voice? Because that would have made it
- 1:10:30much better? No, No one's Casey Kayson. No, of course they're
- 1:10:33not not at all. So I don't know that they take it. Here's
- 1:10:36the thing Shador has a chance to be. But believe it or not,
- 1:10:43this is true. Top quarterback in the NFL draft next year, So I
- 1:10:46don't know. You know, when I look at the top quarterbacks in Power
- 1:10:48five, I have Dylan Gabriel number one. All of these are metric driven
- 1:10:56just for I guess you could say a benchmark. He has a great upgrading
- 1:11:00thirty one point seven. That's the top in Power five. Chandler Rodgers California
- 1:11:05number two, twenty eight point three, Shoudor Sanders twenty eight point two.
- 1:11:10You've got yours, Grayson McCalls, Drew Alers, Penn State, Preston Stone,
- 1:11:14Smu cam Rising who's played for ten years, Central Florida is kJ Jefferson,
- 1:11:18Jalen Milroe, cam Ward will Rogers, Jackson Dart Carson. Back down
- 1:11:23the list a group of five, You've got some guys that will have an
- 1:11:26opportunity to play next level. Katie On Salter Liberty. He's a smaller guy,
- 1:11:32but many can play. App State's Joey Agure he's a bigger kid.
- 1:11:36Memphis, Seth Haynigan, Mima of a House, Brett Gabbert. It's not
- 1:11:42going to be as deep of a class next year, So I think Shadoor
- 1:11:44Sanders has a chance to really be, you know, top five pick if
- 1:11:47he can. He needs to have a good year, needs to stay healthy.
- 1:11:50And when you talk about Colorado this year, Joe said two and four
- 1:11:54or three and three through the first six, let's look at their schedule went
- 1:11:58through this this weekend. Let's see Colorado. I got them six and six.
- 1:12:02They played North Dakota State. Here's the thing. They should not lose
- 1:12:05that ballgame should not. But if South Dakota State, there should be.
- 1:12:12North Dakota State was to ding them pooh. At Nebraska week two, I
- 1:12:18have them a close loss, and I know they've beat Nebraska this past year.
- 1:12:21This is a different look. Matt Rule has done this thing fast track
- 1:12:26in Nebraska. They're gonna be much better this year. They're in seven or
- 1:12:30eight win team in the Big Ten this year. I have them with close
- 1:12:33laws at Colorado State and then Baylor before they get Central Florida in a bye
- 1:12:38week. So Joe, to your credit. I have them three one two,
- 1:12:42three and two at the break, first break, Kansas State. After
- 1:12:45the bye week, I have them losing to Kansas State at Arizona with a
- 1:12:49close win Cincinnati win man. The bear Cats have fallen off and they have
- 1:12:56fallen on hard times in the new Big twelve bye week, second by week
- 1:12:59at Texas Tech, a loss, Utah, loss at Kansas with a close
- 1:13:02win, and a loss at Oklahoma State against Oklahoma State. So I'm six
- 1:13:04and six. I have them with one, two, three, four one
- 1:13:09possession ball games this year, so I mean they could be five and seven,
- 1:13:14they could be seven and five. I don't think that they compete for
- 1:13:15the Big Twelve championship. I think that is gonna be between Central Florida,
- 1:13:23Kansas State, Utah, maybe West Virginia and Oklahoma State. Those fourteen is
- 1:13:27maybe TCU, Texas Tech could be right there. So almost this I'm telling
- 1:13:31you, the Big Twelve is gonna be competitive and it's gonna be fun,
- 1:13:34and I have Central Florida winning the league. By the way, I think
- 1:13:38kJ Jefferson on that roster, he's gonna be healthy, rejuvenated. I mean,
- 1:13:44we've seen what kJ Jefferson can do in the SEC when he's healthy and
- 1:13:47gout guys around him. Gus Mileson's gonna have guys around him, and I
- 1:13:50think it's gonna be interesting to watch Central Florida White Denzel Beaver talking bad about
- 1:13:59LSU Basque all yet that bad team was the favorite Saturday versus State. What
- 1:14:04was the line though, Was it like LSU minus two and a half at
- 1:14:09a basketball game? Dexter, And that's a wrap on this week's Top Top
- 1:14:15forty. I'm Casey Casem. See you next week, Vans. Look,
- 1:14:18how about that Dexter's leaving out the keep your feet on the ground and keep
- 1:14:27reaching for the stars. I used to love Casey Casem. That's how old
- 1:14:31I am. I used to listen to all the weekly Top forty. You
- 1:14:34know, kids don't know nothing about that these days. I got a sixteen
- 1:14:39year old right now. She's grounded. Now I've told you about this,
- 1:14:42and she doesn't have TikTok or are some of the social apps right now,
- 1:14:45and it is she is dying on the vine, dying on the vine right
- 1:14:49now, just like, let me send you some podcasts listen to. She's
- 1:14:55like, no, but like, what if we could have listened to a
- 1:14:59podcast when we were growing up, probably would have hated it, probably,
- 1:15:06but we didn't have the socials. No, No, we were better for
- 1:15:11it. I think so. I think so, Dexter said, that's it,
- 1:15:15beeB, I knew I was missing something. Six one eighty five three

- 1:16:51transmission repair with Rainco Transmission. All right, let's see here, let me
- 1:16:57jump back into some of this other stuff I was looking at earlier. Today
- 1:17:00we're talking about, you know, teams that can bust the ceiling in college
- 1:17:02football. Texas Tech again, I mean, that's a nice team. Can
- 1:17:06we say that Texas Tech is a nice team. It's a nice team.
- 1:17:10It's almost Maryland nice. But for some reason, the media over the last
- 1:17:15several years they bought in on this Texas Tech narrative. That and I don't
- 1:17:17understand this why there's nothing about football down in Lubbock. I mean, Mike
- 1:17:25Leach, rest In Peace had some pretty darn good success down there. Cliff
- 1:17:29Kingsbury never really did. It's a nice team. They recruited a mid tier
- 1:17:32level, They've had some decent players. But again the media just jumps in
- 1:17:36and again, last year was Texas Tech, this year is Texas Tech.
- 1:17:42I'm here to tell you they're not n C State. We talked about them
- 1:17:46earlier. And by the way, Texas Tech not ranked in the two four
- 1:17:49seven Sports way too early, top twenty five. Neither is SMU or South
- 1:17:55Florida. Some of these teams we've been looking at. NC State is twenty
- 1:18:00first. And again Dave Dorian, he has done a great job at inn
- 1:18:05CEA State, four times at in NC State. They've had a ten win
- 1:18:10season over his eleven year tenure. But again, I just think the mountain
- 1:18:15is too hard to climb at the top. I still think there's some pieces
- 1:18:18missing to dethrone of Florida State. Get over on Florida State, Clemson and
- 1:18:25Miami this year. Virginia Tech is an interesting team this year. They really
- 1:18:30are the Hokies, you know they They hit the bottom of the barrel there
- 1:18:35for quite a while. Remember when jose was it Joseph Fente bro Wente?
- 1:18:40What was his first name? Was it Joe Fiente? No, I can
- 1:18:43see I can't eve remember his name Beaver, but justin Fuente, why don't
- 1:18:49I say Joseph, Well he might as well be Joseph. But they have
- 1:18:53made somewhat of a comeback at Virginia Tech. Initial skepticism early for Brent Priye
- 1:18:59at Virginia Town when he lost eleven of his first fifteen games with the Hokies,
- 1:19:02but the switch was flipped midway through the twenty twenty three campaign in Blacksburg.
- 1:19:06Took longer than expected for Prize culture centric mentality to make its way through
- 1:19:12the locker room, but by the end of the season, the buying was
- 1:19:15there. Antoine Powell Rylan deciding to return for his senior season as a mega
- 1:19:19boost for Virginia Tech's defense after he finished with the team best nine point five
- 1:19:24nine and a half sacks. This pass fall leading tacker Keli Lawson is back
- 1:19:30in the middle and they got Kyron drones back quarterback. And if you don't
- 1:19:33know about Kyro and drones, you need you're going to He came on strong
- 1:19:39at the end of the year last year for Virginia Tech and he is going
- 1:19:43to be a heck of a player this year. You look at Drones this
- 1:19:45past year. Seventeen touchdowns, he was just a sophomore, seventeen through the
- 1:19:48air for only three interceptions, two thousand and eighty five yards. Complayed right
- 1:19:53around fifty eight percent of his passes, so he missed on some passes,
- 1:19:55but he doesn't he did not turn the football over a lot. And it's
- 1:19:59the guy that and run the football as well. Eight hundred and eighteen yards
- 1:20:01and five touchdowns. But again, when you look at Virginia Tech this year,
- 1:20:06let's go back to the acc real quick. Virginia Tech, Oh let's
- 1:20:13see, I got them somewhere around the middle of the pack of the ACC.
- 1:20:16This is the team that is likely going to win seven eight ball games.
- 1:20:19I got them at eight and four. They open up at Vanderbilt this
- 1:20:21year and then they play Marshall in Old Dominion before hosting Rutgers. They'll likely
- 1:20:29be at four and oh when they host Miami and then at Stanford for the
- 1:20:33bye week. Then they go Boston College, Georgia Tech, Syracuse on the
- 1:20:36road, Clemson. All of those games are going to be you know,
- 1:20:40that stretch is going to be pretty tough for them at Duke and Virginia to
- 1:20:45finish the season. So, I mean, it's a nice team. It's
- 1:20:49a nice team, maybe a team you want to look at the win total.
- 1:20:54West Virginia is a team that should make some noise in the Big Twelve
- 1:20:58this year. Texas and Oklahoma out of the way. Now, West Virginia
- 1:21:02had a nice, pretty darn good season last year, and you know West
- 1:21:06Virginia this year, they return a lot of talent. They should compete in
- 1:21:12the Big twelve again with Kansas State, Central, Florida, Utah. And
- 1:21:17you look at the quarterback room in the early the quarterback rooms in the Big
- 1:21:21Twelve. Garrett Green is back. He's going to be a decent quarterback in
- 1:21:28that league. Above average. There's some pretty good quarterback play in the Big
- 1:21:30twelve though, Shadoor Sanders at Colorado, cam Rising at Utah, kJ Jefferson
- 1:21:35at Central Florida, Noah fa Fita at Arizona, Jaylon Daniels at Kansas,
- 1:21:43ro Quebec at Iowa State, and then Garrett Green at West Virginia. So
- 1:21:47there's some good ones. And then Da Kwan Finn at Baylor. I mean,
- 1:21:51it's a deep, deep league, which is gonna make it fun.
- 1:21:55It's gonna make it real fun. And then when you look at Kansas again,
- 1:22:00the same A lot of these teams fit the same old You talk about
- 1:22:01Kansas, West Virginia, Virginia Tech, but you're talking about Texas Tech.
- 1:22:08A lot of the same makeup on these teams. Jaylen Daniel's gonna be one
- 1:22:12of the better quarterbacks in the country if he can stay healthy. Lance Leopold
- 1:22:15really good football coach. And we'll see Nebraska. The problem in Nebraska.
- 1:22:20I do think Matt Role is winning at Nebraska. They're gonna play Dyland Ryola
- 1:22:26freshman quarterback, five star guy. He's got a lot of upside. The
- 1:22:30problem is they play in the Big Ten. And when you look at Nebraska
- 1:22:34this year, now remember no more divisions in the Big Ten. Either Nebraska
- 1:22:41will play Colorado, They'll play Illinois in the Big Ten. Let's say I'm
- 1:22:45trying to see the big boys they play. They play att Ohio State,
- 1:22:47host UCLA, at USC Wisconsin, and out of Iowa. So I mean
- 1:22:51this is likely a year where Nebraska can get to eight wins. Let's go
- 1:22:57to Mo. No, let's don't go to Mo. I would mean go
- 1:22:59to on the tax line, go to Mo like he's on the phone lines.
- 1:23:02Pearl native number one ranked inside offensive line transfer Davian Carter Texas Tech.
- 1:23:11You remember davey On Carter Pearl. I don't remember him at Pearl, but
- 1:23:15I'm looking at his numbers at Memphis here. That's pretty impressive. According to
- 1:23:21Pro Football Focus PFF grade of seventy nine point four, good for eleventh nationally.
- 1:23:29Carter has a past block grade of eighty seven point two in five hundred
- 1:23:33and twenty two passing snaps. It's not bad. Sounds good to me,
- 1:23:38right, no doubt about it. Well, I mean he is ranked number
- 1:23:43one inside offensive line transfer all D one FBS is courtesy, like you said,
- 1:23:46a pro football focus. So that's high praise. That is high,
- 1:23:49high praise coming from Pearl City, right, So you don't need to take
- 1:23:54that market. That market it through the city, could use it, put
- 1:24:00it on a billboard. Just trying to help you out here, just trying
- 1:24:06to help you out here. Should be a big two years for Pearl.
- 1:24:09Remember we're talked about that, and that is the teams there where we've talked
- 1:24:12about that could make that splash. Also some other stuff that I want to
- 1:24:16get into the dark Horse Heisman candidates. I do think there's some really good
- 1:24:20candidates for this, really good candidates that. But the thing is with remember
- 1:24:25this with dark Horse Heisman, you gotta win, you gotta win, gotta
- 1:24:30win nine ten nine is the floor. I think we established that nine is.
- 1:24:36I mean, you gotta have big time stats and then win nine.
- 1:24:40We'll talk a little baseball with Doug Kyle coming up at five fifteen. Were

- 1:25:57this week as we march towards March Madness and more. Chris Landry Hour two.
- 1:26:00Also Doug Kyle Cone up in the next segment, we'll talk a little
- 1:26:02college baseball as you look at this week. Let's see here, where did
- 1:26:09my schedule go? All right? Baseball COONa midweek again? How the teams
- 1:26:16play at Jackson State, will pay at Missippi State. That'll be tomorrow,
- 1:26:23and then of course we'll be off the air at five o'clock Missippi State basketball.
- 1:26:26And for anybody wants to know, I'm sure radio will be basketball,
- 1:26:30will not be baseball, I would assume because we're going off the air,
- 1:26:33so that'll probably be local. Like we always say, Little Rock will play
- 1:26:38at Ole Miss. Still gonna do. Some of these matchups are very loose.
- 1:26:42Presbyterian at Georgia, Western, Kentucky at Kentucky, Gardner Webb at South
- 1:26:45Carolina, Jackson State of Missippi State, Grambling, Arkansas, Tennessee host High
- 1:26:49Point, Ole Miss, Little Rock, Indiana State will travel Vanderbilt, Southeast
- 1:26:57Missouri at Missouri Florida travel to Stetson, Lamar at Texas A and m Alabama
- 1:27:03at UAB and Samford at Auburn. All right, let's see here. Top
- 1:27:11draft picks Keler Williams Jade Daniels won't throw at the NFL Combine. Do you
- 1:27:15have any thoughts on this now? Chris said it probably didn't matter. But
- 1:27:16if you're gonna play your pro if you can do your prota only you better
- 1:27:19burn it up. Is this a red flag though? On Kayler Williams.
- 1:27:24I'm not gonna do anything get the combine. With everything else going on with
- 1:27:28Kayler Williams, this is a red flag. Well, yeah, I don't
- 1:27:30like. I don't like when these quarterbacks decide to sit out a drill.
- 1:27:39Now they say it's still gonna be there, it's still gonna meet with teams,
- 1:27:42all that business. Why wouldn't you throw? Oh? I want to
- 1:27:46wait until everything is just perfect for me, as when I'm in my home
- 1:27:53stadium, when I throw into my own receivers that I've been with. Of
- 1:27:58course, allegedly they don't even like him. So I don't like it when
- 1:28:01we see these prospects not do something. Yeah, no, I'm with you.
- 1:28:06I'm with you, res dog. Can you please just cancel all baseball
- 1:28:11broadcasts for the rest of the year. Oh but I'm sorry, but it's
- 1:28:15not even gonna matter because he's top three guaranteed. Oh absolutely, still yeah,
- 1:28:23still, well, just no one has the none of these NFL owners
- 1:28:28or anything has the cajonies. I guess whatever. Oh well, you know,
- 1:28:35hey, a lot of question marks potentially on this guy. Oh well,
- 1:28:41we don't care. We don't care if he's a horrible person or not.
- 1:28:44Go get him. It's the old risk versus reward. It's risk versus
- 1:28:48reward because NFL teams know and and then general public. You mean, everybody
- 1:28:54knows this. If you don't have a quarterback, you have nothing. You
- 1:28:57can have three receivers, two stud right, I mean, if you don't
- 1:29:01have a quarterback, you have nothing. And that's where this game is won.
- 1:29:08And when you look at Caleb Williams as far as talent, he is
- 1:29:12the best talent. But the again, that what they'll look at and go.
- 1:29:16It's kind of like if you're a guy and you meet this girl who
- 1:29:20looks really, really good, she's eleven out of ten, But then the
- 1:29:25buddies are like, man, she is a train wreck. Right, Or
- 1:29:29for you ladies out there, we'll go the other way. Handsome guy,
- 1:29:31but he is just a train wreck. He's emotionally broken that whole deal.
- 1:29:35Your thought is, what if they're interested in you, I can fix them,
- 1:29:40right, I can fix her. I can do this. I know
- 1:29:45how this works, and you give it a shot. Right, because it's
- 1:29:47eleven out of ten these NFL teams look at these quarterbacks, go, I
- 1:29:50can fix that guy. Our coaches can make it work. Sometimes it works,
- 1:29:58sometimes it doesn't. Remember all the noise on CJ. Strould last year
- 1:30:02failed or did really horrible on the Wonder Lick and all this stuff and everybody
- 1:30:06again, Chris Landry talked about this whoever leaked it, which was that's Bush
- 1:30:10league to leak out all that stuff. But the question is can the Bears
- 1:30:15really can they make this work with Kayler Williams? Now? I don't know
- 1:30:20the Bears can make it work with anybody not on offense. Doesn't seem no
- 1:30:26way. Marvin Harrison Junior is when you look at the top ten players,
- 1:30:30regardless of the position, Kayla Williams is number one this currency of NFL dot
- 1:30:33Com. Marvin Harrison Junior number two, regardless of position. Romodunze wide receiver
- 1:30:41at Washington Malik Neighbors wide receiver LSU Drake May quarterback, North Carolina, Jayden
- 1:30:53Daniels quarterback LSU number six, Rock Bowers Georgia tight end number seven, and
- 1:31:00again, Bowers is a guy who he's going to be off the board quick.
- 1:31:03You know, within first ten picks, probably hadn't heard a lot.
- 1:31:06I mean, he's just kind of like a is he a lunch pel guy?
- 1:31:11Can we call him a lunch peal guy? You're you're not gonna get
- 1:31:14a whole lot on Bowers other than he can play football and do it well.
- 1:31:17But is he a lunch pale guy? Can we go there with him?
- 1:31:20You're not going to go there? Are you not sold on brug Bowers?
- 1:31:23No? I'm just I'm just not going to use that phrase lunch that's

- 1:31:45He's off the board quick too. Top five picks. Marvin Harrison Junior
- 1:31:48is going. Terry On Arnold cornerback Alabama. Right as the eighth best overall
- 1:31:56player. Now some of this one change, obviously after the combine and the
- 1:32:00pro DA's Joe Alt offensive lineman Notre Dame. Number nine and number ten is
- 1:32:05uh Talisi Fuaga from Oregon State offensive tackle. So you got a couple couple
- 1:32:11of big guys in there, and then you get some more of the big
- 1:32:14guys in the next ten. Dallas Turner, edge rusher, Alabama, Penn
- 1:32:17State offensive lineman. I'm not even gonna try to pronounciate this guy's name,
- 1:32:21all right, there's no way in heck I'm gonna be able to do that.
- 1:32:25Fashun who is his last name? I can give you that his first
- 1:32:28name, just call it. Oh, do you know who this guy?
- 1:32:30Give it? Do it? Illumiawa fash Fashunu? Is that right? Alumia
- 1:32:39illumis illumiawa for Shunu. Look this guy up, Penn State offensive lineman.
- 1:32:44He's a junior O l U m u y i w y I. I
- 1:32:54just don't want to disrespect the guy's name, and I can't. I butcher
- 1:32:56enough on his own names. But I know for Shunu is got to be
- 1:33:00his last name. That's why I said, oh, fa'shi you who knew?

- 1:33:51So yeah, first ten is going to be a lot of quarterback Brock
- 1:33:55Bauers, wide receivers, one offensive lineman. Then the next ten off the
- 1:34:00board, you're probably gonna see a lot mixed of offensive tackles, defensive ends,
- 1:34:03edge rushers, you know, pluggers on defense. Did you find your
- 1:34:09guy? You gotta you gotta shot at this. No, and that's why

- 1:35:38Central, Find him on x find him on YouTube, and more. Little
- 1:35:41update on college baseball. Doug, welcome in. How are you so far?
- 1:35:45So good, so far, so good? All right, what's your
- 1:35:47take on Mississippi State Ole, miss You know, some tough outings over the
- 1:35:53last week. Both said at four and four overall, Again, this is
- 1:35:56early, but I preface you know, a little you know, a little
- 1:36:00red flag on both of these teams when you look at you know, the
- 1:36:02Alabamas, the Texas A and M's, the LSU's, the Auburns of the
- 1:36:05world, even Arkansas plus on the on the you know, wind column.
- 1:36:10And then of course you look at Georgia, South Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky,
- 1:36:14Florida, all kind of doing what they're supposed to do. I mean,
- 1:36:15this thing separates quickly in baseball, and at least early now Vanderbilt should
- 1:36:19pull this thing together. Missouri, Mississippi State, Ole, miss It just
- 1:36:25it doesn't look good early when you project into what's what's potentially coming in the
- 1:36:30Southeastern Conference. Yeah, you know, if Mississippi State was eight and er
- 1:36:33right now. Nobody would be complaining about playing at three o'clock tomorrow or playing
- 1:36:39Thursday through Saturday at three, three and two. You know, it's just
- 1:36:43whenever you're not having the season that you won't or you expect, you know,
- 1:36:46that's that's going to happen. In Mississippi State and o Mesa are four
- 1:36:50and forward. At least nobody in the SCEC is below five hundred right now.
- 1:36:55They're both full and four, and then Missouri has played one fewer game,
- 1:36:59they're full and three. You mentioned Vanderbilt. Vanderbilt's five and three,
- 1:37:02but yet they're still in our poll at fourteenth. You know. So we
- 1:37:05talked about reputation and perception and that's kind of what carries you sometimes until you
- 1:37:12figure out what's going on. You know. One of the things with Mississippi
- 1:37:15State is and everybody has injuries, but they're just now getting back a couple
- 1:37:20of key players, David Murshan and Logan Cohler. Logan started the year,
- 1:37:27hurt himself in the first game and then he's just come back. Mrshon had
- 1:37:31a pulled hamstring and he's been back for three games now. All Merch did
- 1:37:36yesterday was go four for five, and then Logan Cohler is hitting three eighty
- 1:37:41five, Mercy is hitting four sixty two. They have enough plate appearances or
- 1:37:45games played to figure into the official statistics. But you know, those are
- 1:37:49kids that when you get them back on the field, they make a huge
- 1:37:54difference. And then now we're looking at maybe three pitchers that are expected back
- 1:37:58at some point this year. Obviously a Stone Simmons has been gone since the
- 1:38:02TWU Lane Series in twenty two. Bradley Loughton, according to Chrysala Motas has
- 1:38:10got some tendonitis and they're trying to move him along slowly, and of course
- 1:38:15Pek o'conne, who was really very effective left handed pitching. You know,
- 1:38:19so those are some kids that they're looking to come back, and that's going
- 1:38:24to give them a little bit more option, because there was a game the
- 1:38:27other day where they really had gotten pretty thin in the bullpen. So right
- 1:38:31now, you know you're looking at getting kids back. And then I know
- 1:38:35people are upset about losing to Austin p and losing one to Air Force and
- 1:38:42losing one to Georgia Southern, but I've been a little research. Austin p
- 1:38:46lost their first game, and all they've done is won eight in a row
- 1:38:49since then, and that includes playing this afternoon, and then the Air Force
- 1:38:55has won after they left Mississippi one in three. They went to Southern Myths
- 1:38:59on Monday after State and lost there, So they left Mississippi won and three
- 1:39:02that they had won three in a row coming in and then the big test
- 1:39:06that I'm really anxious to see this series or at least see the results,
- 1:39:11Georgia subject is going to be taking on our favorite Kimpbell Kimball's this weekend.
- 1:39:15So that'll be some games to watch and you'll start to figure out, you
- 1:39:20know, who is really good regardless of the name on their jersey. Doug
- 1:39:26Kyle on your radio talking little college baseball on a Monday, big week as
- 1:39:30always in college baseball. Make sure to find them on X check them out
- 1:39:32on YouTube and more. That is College Baseball Central, Wake Forest, TCU,
- 1:39:35Oregon State number one in the poll for you guys. Obviously, again
- 1:39:40it's early, but you got a lot of flavor around the country. Wake
- 1:39:43TCU and Oregon State at the top. Yeah, you know, Wake Forest
- 1:39:46got beat last week. I think it was you inc. Greensboro or you
- 1:39:50in c Wilmington might be Wilmington who's playing Air Force today, And of course,
- 1:39:56you know everybody was just up at arms for about twenty four hours and
- 1:39:59then that kind of went out of the way, and yeah, you've got
- 1:40:02acc You've got Big twelve and Pac twelve at the top of the pope.
- 1:40:06But then look for to have you have five SEC teams in a row.
- 1:40:11And one thing that is conspicuous this week. You know, we talked about
- 1:40:15Iowa last week and Brodie Brick and that rotation. They go to Jacksonville,
- 1:40:18that tournament down there, and they get swept. They go oh for three
- 1:40:23and you can see they're out of the poles. They're coming in at what
- 1:40:27would be I guess twenty eight or twenty nine. But you know that's what
- 1:40:30happens early in the year is you know, you hit a snag. And
- 1:40:34there was some great games this past weekend. I was following the ones in
- 1:40:39Dallas. Arkansas beat Oregon State five to four, and then the very next
- 1:40:44night they go fourteen innings with Oklahoma State. And here's the name to recognize.
- 1:40:48A kid named Lane Foresight puts down a suicide bunt in the fourteenth inning
- 1:40:55and Oklahoma State beats. So it's nice to see Lane, you know,
- 1:41:00back with another team and doing well there. But you know, there's just
- 1:41:02some terrific baseball going on right there, and it's going to take a while.
- 1:41:06It may even be conference played before you really get an idea of who's
- 1:41:11good and who is bringing up you know, the middle of the pack,
- 1:41:15so to speak. Yeah, there's no doubt. Let's get you out the
- 1:41:17door talking about something that you know, these other teams where I was like
- 1:41:20to look at Indiana at nineteen, Campbell at twenty. The Campbell's as you
- 1:41:25reference, Coastal Carolina always good baseball in the Carolina areas. Of course,
- 1:41:28you go back into the upper half, you got your South Carolina's, your
- 1:41:31East Carolina's, you know, as you Mary Friens Vanderbilt at fourteen. So
- 1:41:36you know, again to your point, it's going to take a few more
- 1:41:39weeks. We've got to get through some of this and then you get in
- 1:41:41the conference play. You know, look at also receiving votes to the Indiana.
- 1:41:44There's you know, teams like Indiana State, UC Irvine, UCLA teams
- 1:41:48we've seen with some baseball history, some others maybe not so much like Kansas
- 1:41:51State, also San Diego and Central Florida. Yeah, and you know,
- 1:41:56Alabama and Georgia are the two undefeated in the conference. And Alabama is in
- 1:42:01at twenty five on our poll this week, and Georgia's getting some votes.
- 1:42:06People are going to notice Georgia because they got Charlie Condon, who was named
- 1:42:10the player of the week at the SEC. And I can't get out of
- 1:42:14here without mentioning Hagen Smith. You know, we thought we saw Nate Dom
- 1:42:18pitch great this past weekend, and then I pull up the online stuff and
- 1:42:25there's Hagen Smith for Arkansas. He pitches six innings and out of the eighteen
- 1:42:30batters he retired, he got seventeen strikeouts. So you know that's gonna be
- 1:42:33one of those when you play them on Friday night, you know you're gonna
- 1:42:38be going, Okay, well, who's gonna throw against him? Make sure
- 1:42:42to find them on x you can check them out College Baseball Central, also
- 1:42:45YouTube and more. Doug, I appreciate you guys as always, look have
- 1:42:47a great week. We'll do it again next week. Thanks, Jake,
- 1:42:49appreciate it. Doug Kyle on your radio, you can find them there for
- 1:42:53their baseball poll, and of course a lot of college baseball action. We'll
- 1:42:57see what happens with the Mississippi State and Miss Beaver. How long the Mississippi
- 1:43:01State fans and Ole miss fans stay dialed into these baseball teams. We're going
- 1:43:09another week, two weeks, three weeks. No, they're gonna wait till
- 1:43:13conference play. You think they'll keep those fingers crossed through conference play? That's
- 1:43:18fair, that's fair. Dexter talking about NFL teams, and of course,
- 1:43:24you know we were talking about the similarities to quote dating, and then why
- 1:43:29NFL teams take you know, they'll take a shot at a big time quarterback
- 1:43:32or player early, especially early since comparisons to male and female. My dad
- 1:43:36used to say, if the guy smashes his beer a beer can, he's
- 1:43:41not the one. If your female date burps at the dinner table, she's
- 1:43:45not the one. Don't overlook those things. In referencing to drafting players,
- 1:43:50yeah, I mean, sometimes there's red flags with players, and then sometimes
- 1:43:56there's no red flags, and then they don't pan out either. Any thoughts
- 1:43:59to Kyler Murray being back in the good graces of the Arizona Cardinals or is
- 1:44:03this is this short lived or long term now, because right now they're out
- 1:44:08here saying, Hey, QB One, he's the guy again. Yeah,
- 1:44:13they love this kid for some reason. Yeah, and we'll see. I
- 1:44:18mean, I wouldn't if I was a betting man, and I am,
- 1:44:23I would say that this thing unless unless it turns quickly for him. I
- 1:44:28mean, they're gonna be right back in the same situation. They're gonna have
- 1:44:30to have a big year out of him, and of course a big year
- 1:44:33out of that offense. Also, Eli Drink says that transfer Caden Green will
- 1:44:40start Missouri left tackle. Also adds that, well, I don't know that
- 1:44:46I can say that on the air, but anyway, Eli Drink is talking
- 1:44:48about his transfer class, talking about also spring practice, A lot of coaches
- 1:44:53going to be talking about spring practice as it is here for a lot a
- 1:44:57lot of teams. Hey, We're brought to you by Bailey Lumber Open Monday

- 1:46:03two five, two five. Do you like Lane Kiffin? Yeah, I
- 1:46:14I don't know if I like the guy. I think he's a couple of
- 1:46:18years ago. I do like how he just started telling the truth, though
- 1:46:25he's seemed a couple of years ago. With his thoughts on in Il and
- 1:46:28all that business. He became one of the only truth tellers that we hear
- 1:46:33or that we were hearing at the time. He tells it like it is.
- 1:46:38I do like that he has become by all accounts. Now, Now
- 1:46:43me and Lane aren't boys, will never be boys. I never hung out
- 1:46:45with Lane kiffn never hang out with him. I'll run in those circles.
- 1:46:48Right. I am a lowly radio guy down here in central Mississippi. Seven
- 1:46:55people listen to this show. But I like Lane Kiffin what I see,
- 1:47:00which is just what you said. Really good football coach knows how to work
- 1:47:03the portal, knows how to navigate a football team in this modern day era
- 1:47:08of college football. And he tells it like it is ole Miss football this
- 1:47:13morning, put out on x Twitter, and I will retweet this right now,
- 1:47:19says best returning quarterback wide receiver duo in college football, Jackson Dart and
- 1:47:24Trey Harris. Now they very well could be. But the video that they
- 1:47:29put out ole Miss Football on Twitter. Now we're talking about the Twitter account
- 1:47:32X account for ole Miss Football three hundred and thirty five thousand followers. I
- 1:47:36mean it is the ole Miss Twitter feed and the video is very cringe worthy.
- 1:47:43It is Trey Harris and Jackson Dart It's about a seven second clip and
- 1:47:50Beaver watched it. They're in this wooded area with his house, and Dart
- 1:47:56throws this football and it does this little circle three sixty three sixty three sixty
- 1:48:00and then it's this weird pose of Harris catching a football and then they both
- 1:48:03like act like they're pulling back a bow and eeryone and shooting it. What
- 1:48:08did you think of this video when you saw it? Very dumb? Lane
- 1:48:13Kiffen retweets this and says, please don't ever do this again. Face Palm
- 1:48:16calls his own school twitter feed out, just calls him out, like stop
- 1:48:23this, what are you doing? And in these comments it is fascinating.
- 1:48:27One guy says, did they put the uniforms on into a photo shoot in
- 1:48:30the woods like people do for engagement announcements? Why? Who thought this was
- 1:48:32good? Get this person away from the team? Lane says, one hundred.
- 1:48:35Somebody got fired today. Somebody got relieved to their duties when the head
- 1:48:41ball coach of an SEC program calls out their own universities and remember who runs
- 1:48:48these accounts? I mean these are staffers or whoever you know social media teams
- 1:48:53or whoever is running these accounts, somebody didn't ask Slane Kiffin about this.
- 1:49:00They didn't run it across his desk and say, he coach, what do
- 1:49:02you think about this video? I bet you moving forward that will happen.
- 1:49:09So this makes me like Lane Kiffin even more. The fact that this guy
- 1:49:12went straight after his own social media team, it's like, don't do this.
- 1:49:17And he didn't do it privately, he did it publicly. So that's
- 1:49:23that's very interesting to me. Rh et cetera. You can tax a sixer
- 1:49:26one eighty five three seven seven six. The best litmus test for wife material
- 1:49:32is quote, how does she treat her dad? I think that's fair.
- 1:49:38How do they treat how do they treat their dad? I think that's good.
- 1:49:41Red, I think that is is Ret the most knowledgeable person that we
- 1:49:44have on the text line. Now, I know Joe and some others would
- 1:49:45be. Ritt always comes with some good stuff and well, that quote does
- 1:49:50she poop with her door open? That kind of ruined it right there.
- 1:50:00Rhtt just went back down on that one. Is that where you're at?
- 1:50:05Yeah? I mean you went so far as to downgrade people like dog tired
- 1:50:11Florence. No, I'm not saying that, Rhett is the most knowledgeable.
- 1:50:15Could he be the most knowledgeable? We know how knowledgeable? Dog tired?
- 1:50:18And then he text about pooping. It's it's the yin and the yang of
- 1:50:24Rhett. All right, let's see here. Other stuff is out here.
- 1:50:27Let's get into some of these way you know. Long shot Heisman odds Brad
- 1:50:31Crawford two for seven sports dot Com. We talked about Central Florida in our
- 1:50:35one or South Florida rather, Biram Brown vandal has him at five hundred and
- 1:50:43one to win the Heisman Trophy. That's a long shot odd South Florida would
- 1:50:47have to go undefeated, and then, of course Brown would have to have
- 1:50:53another fantastic year. Last year he counted for thirty seven touchdowns of more than
- 1:50:56four thousand offensive yards. Four thousand offensive yards. Did you watch this guy
- 1:51:02play last year? South Florida Byron Brown say? What? A lot of
- 1:51:08people? I mean? I didn't. I watched them against Alabama? Played
- 1:51:11well against Obama. Could they beat Alabama in Week two? Could South Florida
- 1:51:15walk into Tusch Close in week two and beat them? Upsets upset city?
- 1:51:23Could Could it happen? What? This guy is? A four thousand yard
- 1:51:27guy? Coming into Alabama, new coaching staff, trying to find their sea
- 1:51:31legs in college football. Mmm. See, this is why this show is
- 1:51:41not as good as it was just like two years ago, because now all
- 1:51:45of a sudden, you just you're just talking. What do you just talk
- 1:51:47to talk man? Like this Alabama stuff? But yeah, go ahead,
- 1:51:51now six and six? Is that what I'm hearing from you? I'm just
- 1:51:55what do you mean two years ago? What made it? All? Right?
- 1:51:58So all right, let's self analyze here? What made it better two
- 1:52:00years ago? That's not we're not going to talk about that. But South
- 1:52:02Florida beating Alabama? Jake, they had them on the point is that you
- 1:52:09just keep saying these things, just to say these things, just to what
- 1:52:15what's Jake Wimberley talking about South Florida? Think about this? They had him
- 1:52:20on the ropes for three quarters last last year. You remember that, Well,
- 1:52:25look who those quarterbacks were. Saban made that dumb decision, that really
- 1:52:30weird decision. And then we saw was ty Simpson and Tyler Buckner to throw
- 1:52:38me some random Alabama quarterback names, I believe it, and Doug Bohunkles I
- 1:52:42think came in in the fourth quarter. Right. I don't know what he
- 1:52:45was doing. Oh, Jake, don't entertain that Malik Murphy is on this
- 1:52:50list. Transfer quarterback Texas two hundred and fifty one odds, two hundred and
- 1:52:55fifty to one odds at Duke. Probably is. He's playing at Duke.
- 1:52:59He have to elevate Duke to nine ten wins and his head coach is Manny
- 1:53:02Diaz, so I don't. I mean, Look, Malik Murphy's a Bay
- 1:53:06all accounts, a very talented guy. He gave it every shot he could
- 1:53:11at Texas and I commend him for that. Probably a year too long at
- 1:53:15Texas, but he's going to get a shot at Duke. Cadence Salter at
- 1:53:20Liberty he's two hundred and one odds. The problem is Liberty, right,
- 1:53:25they could go undefeated, they could make the College Football Playoff, and they're
- 1:53:29likely going to get dush rolled in round one. Seth Hinnigan's at Memphis.
- 1:53:35He is one of the better ones that's come through there in a long time.
- 1:53:41Twenty twenty three, he had a league best in the AAC three eight
- 1:53:44hundred and eighty two yards, sixty eight point eight percent completion percentage. But
- 1:53:48again, Memphis would have to get to the College Football Playoff, and that
- 1:53:51would mean that they would win a lot of games. He's one hundred and
- 1:53:54fifty one, one hundred and fifty to one odds. Rhet cetera says,
- 1:53:58I don't know about knowledge. I just text in to try to make Beaver
- 1:54:00mal good. Use of mal right. No one uses that anymore. Olie
- 1:54:09Gordon running back, Oklahoma State one hundred and fifty to one odds. Now,
- 1:54:13again, we rarely do we see running backs win the Heisman Trophy.
- 1:54:16I mean, you're talking about a guy who went for seventeen thirty two on
- 1:54:18the ground that she yardage wise might be the only player that's going to be
- 1:54:23rated ninety nine in the new Excuse Me College Football Game. But again,
- 1:54:28Oklahoma State is going to have to win the Big Twelve, get to the
- 1:54:30College Football Playoff, and they'll be in the conversation in the Big Twelve.
- 1:54:35Quinn Shine Judkins is on this list. Running back, Ohio State one hundred
- 1:54:40and twenty to one odds. I don't know if there's enough carries in that
- 1:54:44backfield. Ohio State is going to be right there at the end. They're
- 1:54:46going to be a playoff team. They're likely going to be in the final
- 1:54:49four. Judkins will be a big part of that. But again he's sharing
- 1:54:53that backfield with the Trevon Henderson. Plus, you look at some of the
- 1:54:57playmakers on Ohio State Chief Shooting Bull. A duke undergraduate degree is quite lucrative.
- 1:55:10That came out of nowhere? Am I missing something with that? A
- 1:55:15duke undergraduate degree is quite lucrative? Did space ghost hack his account? I'm
- 1:55:23not understanding what that means? Six era one eight nine seven one zero five
- 1:55:27nine. That is the Malone roofing call of line. We're brought to you

- 1:56:51have Kelly Ford tomorrow. Good to start, all Oxford says, we poke
- 1:56:57around and see what's going on in the state of Mississippi. Were brought to
- 1:56:59you. I'm Mackaigh Madison Gluckstat. Go to Mackhake Madison dot com for more
- 1:57:02information new and used inventory. I was out there today. A lot of
- 1:57:06great inventory that Darren and his group has in Gluckstat, Chrystler, Dodge,
- 1:57:12Jupe, Ram and Chevy Madison gluckx sat is still truck month going on this
- 1:57:15week. Go to mackhake Madison dot com as well. All right, unlet's
- 1:57:19see, Oh, let's see Chief Shooting Bull Murphy is at Duke. Okay,
- 1:57:25I got you. Duke undergrad degree is quite lucrative. Now I get
- 1:57:27you. Now I see what he's saying. You have. Alik Murphy is
- 1:57:30at Duke. Grayson McCall is at n C State. We talked about NC
- 1:57:34State as well. FanDuel Heishim at one twenty to one to win the Heisman.
- 1:57:40I mean, look, McCall is a guy that has just put up
- 1:57:42stupid numbers, stupid, stupid, stupid numbers. If you go back and
- 1:57:45looking Grayson McCall, Coastal Carolina, and this is a guy that was flirting
- 1:57:49with coming out in this year's NFL Draft, he decided to come back.
- 1:57:55Now, McCall was hurt a lot this past year. You only played in
- 1:57:58seven ball games, ten touchdowns, six picks. But if NC State gets
- 1:58:00this former version, McCall went twenty four touchdowns, two picks. Two years
- 1:58:04ago in twenty twenty two, twenty seven hundred yards sulmost, seventy percent completion
- 1:58:11percentage. McCall's a guy that can run it a little bit. Six touchdowns
- 1:58:15that year. He go back to twenty twenty one, let's see McCall twenty
- 1:58:21seven touchdowns and three In two years twenty one to twenty two, he accounted
- 1:58:26for fifty four touchdown or the seed let me see twenty yeah, fifty one
- 1:58:35touchdowns and only five interceptions. And you go back to COVID, he had
- 1:58:41twenty six touchdowns and three picks. If this young man is healthy, He's
- 1:58:45going to make life miserable for teams in the ACC, and n C State
- 1:58:48could very well be a dark horse in that conference. I mean, he
- 1:58:55accounted in a lot three years prior to this past year, he accounted for
- 1:59:00almost seventy touchdowns in less than ten interceptions. Now you look at a call
- 1:59:05sixty three two hundred pounds Indian Trail, North Carolina. I mean, he's
- 1:59:12gonna be a heck of a player. I think at the next level.
- 1:59:14It just did not come out this year. I don't think it's set up
- 1:59:15well for him. He played hurt a lot of the year, and now
- 1:59:20he resets Shaunce Memphis on X Clinton Body Shop X feet. He says,
- 1:59:25hey, beve Seth Hennigan, long shot, puts your dollars on him.
- 1:59:30So he is saying, take Seth Henigan for the Heisman at Memphis. Now
- 1:59:33I'm on board m simply because mainly because he's got that. It was an
- 1:59:42episode of Seinfeld Kramer got drunk off Hennigan Scotch and he's drunkenly started singing h
- 1:59:49E doublin I And that's where my brain went. Sorry about that, That's
- 1:59:54where but I'm looking at this kid's stats. It's kind of press from his
- 2:00:00sophomore season is junior season played the same amount of games. Completion percentage went
- 2:00:06up by almost three three for more yards, three for ten more touchdowns.
- 2:00:11Is rating went up ten points. Heisman a bit of a long shot,
- 2:00:19Shaun See, but that's those are impressive numbers. Well, you look at
- 2:00:26Memphis and their football schedule this year, but again they're gonna I think it's
- 2:00:30gonna be Memphis or South Florida in the AAC and there very well could be
- 2:00:32a college football playoff. Berth alive. You know they're gonna have to one
- 2:00:39win the conference and then two battle to Liberty. But strength of schedule,
- 2:00:43you know, if all things are considered equal, let's just say Liberty in
- 2:00:46Memphis or South Florida win their conferences, They'll be Conference USA for Liberty,
- 2:00:50the AAC four Memphis or South Florida. The strength of schedule numbers would be
- 2:00:58higher if both teams finish twelve and on the strength of schedule numbers will be
- 2:01:00higher for Memphis or South Florida just because of the conference, and that may
- 2:01:02play a big part into that. Memphis starts out with South Florida, excuse
- 2:01:10me, North Alabama, North Alabama. Then they play Troy September seventh.
- 2:01:15They go to Florida State on September fourteenth, Mike Norvogus to take on his
- 2:01:19former team. I don't think that they'll have the horses to win that game.
- 2:01:25Middle Tennessee and then of course they've got to get the TV stuff done
- 2:01:29before they get the rest of the schedule on dates and such. But UAB
- 2:01:32Charlotte, North Texas, Rice at Navy, Yeah, Memphis at some point.
- 2:01:41Now this is not going to be I don't think in all order.
- 2:01:43But at Navy, at two Lane, at South Florida and at UTSA.
- 2:01:47So they'll go to UTSA in South Florida and two Lane. So, I
- 2:01:51mean that's it's pretty tough in that conference. I mean, we'll see if
- 2:01:55tu Lane can keep this thing going. I think that they probably can to
- 2:01:58some degree success they've had over the last several years. South Florida's gonna be
- 2:02:01tough game Raymond James Stadium at UTSA at the Alamodome, Jeff trailor down the
- 2:02:11dome. What you just said? How did that even slip out of my
- 2:02:14mouth? See two years ago much better show. Now you're gonna have to
- 2:02:18make me. I'm gonna sit back and wonder what do we do two years
- 2:02:20ago? Those But why are we? Why are we off the cuff here?
- 2:02:24Okay? Alamo Dome Dome? How do you say dome? How should
- 2:02:28I be saying? Dome? Dome? Dome? Alomo Doome? Dome?
- 2:02:33Not dome. There's no dome dome, Alamo Dome. How about that?
- 2:02:42We'll go with that. Hey, you been in that building? Do you
- 2:02:45like that building? Yeah, it's a nice building. It's better than a
- 2:02:53nice building. Let's see here. Also, real quickly before we get out
- 2:02:56of here, what is this? Okay, twenty twenty five, way too
- 2:03:01early recruiting, you know, as the number one class in the country right
- 2:03:04now, this will change Notre Dame. Are we sleeping on Notre Dame?
- 2:03:10It's hard to sleep on the team that's got the most coverage in the country
- 2:03:13just about. But are we sleeping on Notre Dame? No, we are
- 2:03:15right where we should be. On Notre Dame. They'll have a good season,
- 2:03:21probably get a playoff spot, and they'll get beat in the first or
- 2:03:24second round. Yeah, I've got I think who I believe will be in
- 2:03:30this college football Playoff already done. I'm not gonna tell you yet, but
- 2:03:33I will tell you Notre Dame is one of them. Their schedule, Like
- 2:03:36when you look at some of the teams that are going to be in the
- 2:03:42running for the college football Playoff, like weakest schedules, Notre Dame is going
- 2:03:45to be one of them. Miami's one of them. Miamy's got a week.
- 2:03:50There is no reason Miami should not be in this playoff. None,
- 2:03:57top recruit in the ACC, best, one of the best quarterbacks in the
- 2:04:00country, in cam Ward week schedule, they should be there. Conversely,
- 2:04:05I mean Georgia, and I'll tell you this Ohio State schedule it's not that
- 2:04:09hard. I mean all things comparison, you know, compared Ohio State in
- 2:04:13Oregon much less on the schedules versus Georgia, Texas and even Tennessee for that
- 2:04:20matter, Penn State and Clemson weaker schedules. Just some teams that will be
- 2:04:30in the running for this. Thanks to Chris Landry, also thanks to Doug
- 2:04:33Kyle. Appreciate you guys today. Remember catch up as King Bacon's a delicacy.
- 2:04:36A loha means goodbye, be a man of increase. We'll see Tomroket night
