  On three has kind of called it so to speak on their recruiting rankings,
• 0:04
  and no, obviously you've got another National Signing Day come up here in a
• 0:06
  couple of weeks. But Georgia one, Bama two, Oregon three, Ohio
• 0:10
  State four in Miami at five, that's your top five ole miss set twenty.
• 0:15
  And I do have some thoughts on several of these leagues because especially as
• 0:19
  I'm cranking through the talent metrics, because again you have to account now for
• 0:24
  the transfer portal. And again talking with Kelly Ford of k Ford Ratings a
• 0:29
  couple of weeks ago privately about this, we were just talking about quantifying numbers,
• 0:34
  quantifying rosters because of the transfer portal. Now it's it's an educated guess
• 0:38
  how to do this because there are no longer four year recruiting metrics. It's
• 0:44
  just it's not the same. Like if you took all four classes of Missispi
• 0:48
  State and are Ole missing, you averaged them up. That's not even who's
• 0:51
  on the team. There's a portion of that on the team, but it's
• 0:55
  not even hardly half, and the transfer portal is a lot of that.
• 0:58
  That's like, let me tell you something I found this weekend. I thought
• 1:00
  that was interesting cranking through some of this stuff. Let's go to the ACC.
• 1:06
  Spend some time in the ACC this weekend, not physically, mentally,
• 1:11
  that's a scary thing. Do you know who has the best roster coming into
• 1:17
  this year in the ACC? Miami? Miami does. Miami has the best
• 1:23
  roster talent roster on paper in the ACC. They have recruited the last three
• 1:27
  years, number five class this year eight and thirteen. Their transfer portal two
• 1:36
  year metric evaluation that I have come up with, they're sending it about a
• 1:42
  fifteen and a half, which means they rank around fifteen and a half.
• 1:44
  So they've done well in the transfer portal. They've done well in recruiting,
• 1:48
  and they edge out Florida State is number two by just a little bit.
• 1:52
  Clemson has fallen to number three and kind of at a large degree, believe
• 1:59
  it or not. I mean, Clemson has ranked sixty first in the transfer
• 2:01
  portal and their classes have gone twelve, eleven, and fourteen. So and
• 2:07
  of course you get out in North Carolina, n C State and Louisville.
• 2:09
  But what's interesting about this is because I've already done the three year metrics for
• 2:13
  the SEC where Alabama and Georgia is still are at the top, but it's
• 2:17
  Texas right there too. Texas is right there too. I mean, there's
• 2:22
  not a dime's worth of difference in those teams. And I've already done the
• 2:24
  big team where Oregon is just ahead of Ohio State. And here's what's interesting.
• 2:31
  I think this is from the transfer port. Now again, you've got
• 2:35
  to just this is talent only. This is not coaches, this is not
• 2:38
  quarterbacks. This is not big play you know, you know, one team's
• 2:42
  got a massive wide receiver where the other teams maybe don't. Or you know,
• 2:45
  you take Alabama they didn't have that home run threat like in Ohio State
• 2:50
  had this year, or you know, Michigan at certain times. Miami has
• 2:54
  just as good a talent as all of these teams coming into this year.
• 3:01
  Watch Miami. That's why they I think this is why they win in I'm
• 3:06
  not saying I'm just saying, watch Miami, Watch Miami. This is why
• 3:09
  they went in on camp. Cameron Ward, I'm fully this this the bell
• 3:15
  went off after looking at this city. Yup. This this They're trying to
• 3:20
  make their like oh Miss, like Ohio State. They're going all in money
• 3:25
  shot trying to get that home run. But Miami has vastly disappointed, vastly
• 3:32
  disappointed, much like Texas A and M So you have to be careful with
• 3:37
  Miami. And let's go look and see just cross references with Vegas and look
• 3:45
  and see what Vegas has the Miami football Hurricanes to win the national title.
• 3:50
  Now I am not calling for Miami to win the national title. I'm just
• 3:53
  that was interesting to me when that kind of came across everything. Sixty to
• 4:00
  one be a hell of a pickup, Wasn't it talk about a value bet?
• 4:06
  Sixty to one. They're down there with Kansas State and Washington Auburn.
• 4:12
  But again, you look at Mario Cristobal, this whole thing has just been
• 4:17
  he is going to be. You talk about coaching your way out of ball
• 4:20
  games, he coaches. I mean, he has coached Miami and Oregon out
• 4:26
  of ball games. This was a seven and sixteen last year, seven and
• 4:30
  six, seven wins, six losses. They averaged thirty two points a game
• 4:34
  and they gave up twenty three. This should have been a ten win ball
• 4:38
  game, ten win ball team by those numbers. If you average over thirty
• 4:41
  points a game and you give up less than twenty three and a half.
• 4:44
  You should be a ten win ball team. The numbers show it. You
• 4:46
  absolutely should. And you look at some of these losses that they had.
• 4:50
  They had a three three point loss to Georgia Tech, which he screwed that
• 4:54
  up. That, a ten point loss to North Carolina. They had a
• 4:59
  touchdown laws to Florida State, a six point lost to Louisville, and a
• 5:01
  six point lost to Rutgers. Let's go to get to Matt. Matt,
• 5:03
  welcome in. Who's the first game of the year. Well, aren't they
• 5:10
  coming up there to the swamp? Yes, sir, they are. How
• 5:13
  about that? Who you got in that? Jake? I would have to
• 5:16
  say, I'm gonna lean Miami in that. Jh Yeah, who the fuck
• 5:21
  it? Of course? Absolutely? Hey, Jake, did I see is
• 5:28
  Stanford in the ACC? Yes? Explain that to me? What is the
• 5:33
  ACC? Stanford? Jake? Well, it's the Atlantic Coast Conference. I
• 5:38
  mean, I guess if you're a flat earther you can make that work in
• 5:40
  your head somehow. How Uh, I can't wait to I can't wait to
• 5:45
  follow that volleyball matchup between those two schools. Ye, wait versus Stanford.
• 5:50
  How about get you some of that? Yeah, I mean how much money?
• 5:56
  I mean, first of all, how much money are they going to
• 5:58
  lose? Taking the uh? Taking the softball team over there and play.
• 6:04
  It's just ridiculous. So you're, uh, who you got to the Super
• 6:10
  Bowl? Are you taking? Are you taking San fran or are you taking
• 6:13
  Taylor's boyfriend? Oh? I'm all in on San Francisco? Now, oh
• 6:16
  you are? Why because Taylor Swift? He can't stand it? Can you?
• 6:19
  Just the whole chief set up? I just can't deal with that.
• 6:23
  That whole thing's too much. How I mean, how does Detroit lose that
• 6:28
  game? I mean, look, I'm a Dan Campbell fan? Is that
• 6:30
  his name? I love the guy, but I mean, good lord,
• 6:35
  I mean he just gave that game away. Jake, all right, so
• 6:40
  you're taking Miami. Well, hey, we're gonna circle back around. We're
• 6:43
  gonna put something else. I think you already owe me a three piece at
• 6:46
  bow Jangles. We're gonna have to parlay that into something bigger. You got se
