0:11
Speaker 1: talking about Michigan. Well, Dennier Griderman and I just dropped
0:14
Speaker 1: a live episode of the Buckeye Weekly podcast talking all
0:19
Speaker 1: about the report from Ross Dellinger of Yahoo breaking down
0:23
Speaker 1: Michigan's response, or at least the portion of Michigan's response
0:26
Speaker 1: that someone I don't know could be anyone could be
0:28
Speaker 1: Michigan could also be someone in affiliated with Michigan wanted
0:32
Speaker 1: to drop that came out on Tuesday night. Did a
0:35
Speaker 1: live Buckeye Weekly Instant reaction show on that, So you
0:38
Speaker 1: can find that name the Buckeye Weekly Feed. But in
0:40
Speaker 1: the meantime, we're talking Ohio State quarterbacks for starting our
0:44
Speaker 1: positional preview for the heading into the Spring, which somehow
0:48
Speaker 1: is kind of already slightly around the corner. So anyway,
0:51
Speaker 1: before we get to that, we got to thank our
0:53
Speaker 1: friends from Grateful Griddle. If you were planning your next event,
0:55
Speaker 1: you should make it unforgidtable with Grateful Griddle, Blumpas's favorite

1:04
Speaker 1: And you want to try them out, Well, they're going
1:06
Speaker 1: to be at Standardized Brewing in Lewis Center this Sunday
1:09
Speaker 1: from eleven to eight, So go check them out and
1:12
Speaker 1: tell them your friends at Bucke Uddle SENTYAZ. So, all right,
1:14
Speaker 1: speaking of friends at Blacke Huddle, you're going to welcome
1:16
Speaker 1: and Tony Gerdaman of coincidentally Buckeye Huddle and Tony, we're
1:20
Speaker 1: gonna be talking about the position by position breakdown at quarterback.
1:23
Speaker 1: This is a position where it is an open position.
1:26
Speaker 1: Will Howard is gone, Devin Brown is gone, Aaron Noland
1:29
Speaker 1: has gone. Now they've got three guys on the roster
1:32
Speaker 1: right now. Might be bringing in someone else in the
1:34
Speaker 1: portal after the spring. We'll see how that all goes,
1:37
Speaker 1: and we'll talk about that in a minute, but let's start.
1:39
Speaker 1: We're just going to run down the depth chart from
1:41
Speaker 1: the end of the season. We knew Julian Sayin was
1:43
Speaker 1: the number three quarterback for most of this year, so
1:45
Speaker 1: we're going to start with him. He's someone who came
1:48
Speaker 1: in last year with a lot of hype. We saw
1:51
Speaker 1: a little bit, you saw some flashes from him, but
1:53
Speaker 1: obviously a true freshman season in a year where they
1:56
Speaker 1: have a lot on the line, we haven't seen probably
1:59
Speaker 1: nearly as much Julian Sanez. We will this spring, but
2:02
Speaker 1: it feels kind of appropriate to start the quarterback preview
2:05
Speaker 1: for this year with him. Yeah.
2:08
Speaker 2: I think he's the guy that everybody talks about when
2:11
Speaker 2: you talk about twenty twenty five starting quarterback. That's locally
2:15
Speaker 2: and that's also nationally given his five star status, and
2:21
Speaker 2: you get him from Alabama after Nick Saban retires, and
2:24
Speaker 2: he was the closest guy to in terms of the
2:29
Speaker 2: depth chart, like he's the highest guy remaining after Will
2:32
Speaker 2: Howard and Devin Brown left because he was the third
2:35
Speaker 2: string guy and had, you know, sort of maybe begin
2:38
Speaker 2: battling for that backup job late in the season. And
2:42
Speaker 2: he's the only guy on the roster that has thrown
2:43
Speaker 2: a pass, so he was I believe five of twelve
2:47
Speaker 2: this year. Lincoln Kenels talk did not throw pass. We'll
2:50
Speaker 2: talk about him, but when you talk about the most experienced.
2:53
Speaker 2: I don't know that he qualifies as the most experienced,
2:56
Speaker 2: but he got the most experience in twenty twenty four,
3:00
Speaker 2: which I think is where you.
3:02
Speaker 1: Start the most recent experience for sure, and you know,
3:06
Speaker 1: he's someone who fits. I don't know, we'll see exactly
3:10
Speaker 1: what his game looks like when we get to see
3:13
Speaker 1: him a little more this spring, although I was going
3:16
Speaker 1: to say, you know, we'll see if he's as mobile
3:19
Speaker 1: as Will Howard, but you always that's always so hard
3:21
Speaker 1: to judge in the spring when they have those black
3:23
Speaker 1: no contact jerseys on, everyone looks like an All American
3:26
Speaker 1: with the black no contact jersey on because you can, oh, look,
3:29
Speaker 1: he's he's fearless, running running right between the tackles. Like, yeah,
3:32
Speaker 1: it's easy to be fearless in the black jersey. It's
3:34
Speaker 1: easy to look fast and everyone has to pull up
3:36
Speaker 1: when they get near you. But he does feel like
3:38
Speaker 1: someone who potentially fits in very well with what Ohio
3:42
Speaker 1: State was doing on offense this year. We'll see what
3:45
Speaker 1: the arm strength looks like when we get, you know,
3:47
Speaker 1: get to see an extended run. We'll see what the
3:48
Speaker 1: accuracy looks like when we get to see an extended run.
3:50
Speaker 1: We'll see what the mobility looks like when we get
3:52
Speaker 1: to see an extended run. But it does feel like
3:55
Speaker 1: he was brought in and sort of fit in right
3:58
Speaker 1: with all the other guys in that quarterback in terms
4:00
Speaker 1: of the tools that he brings.
4:03
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they brought him in already having Aaron Nolan
4:06
Speaker 2: on the rosters, so he was a guy that Ryan
4:09
Speaker 2: Day really really liked, and Dylan Ralo was already already
4:13
Speaker 2: committed to Ohio State, so Julian Sayan went off to Alabama.
4:17
Speaker 2: But you know, when Saying had the opportunity to leave Alabama,
4:21
Speaker 2: he pretty quickly looked to Ohio State and Ryan Day
4:23
Speaker 2: and wanted to play for Ryan Day. And so they
4:26
Speaker 2: have this connection and clearly Saying likes the offense, Ryan
4:30
Speaker 2: Day likes what Julian Saying can do. Chip Kelly raves
4:34
Speaker 2: about his maturity and ability to run the offense. So
4:40
Speaker 2: everybody's saying all of the right things publicly, and then
4:43
Speaker 2: you did see him basically, you know, climbed the depth
4:48
Speaker 2: chart and move past lick Keen Olsen was the third
4:51
Speaker 2: string guy. So I want to see more five of twelve,
4:56
Speaker 2: Like I said, in the regular season, not that great,
4:58
Speaker 2: but we did see glimpse this was in practice last
5:01
Speaker 2: year where you're like, oh, okay, yeah, I definitely see it.
5:06
Speaker 2: I see what they're talking about because he was an
5:07
Speaker 2: aggressive freshman quarterback in some of those practices that we saw.
5:11
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you feel like we saw a lot more
5:13
Speaker 1: of him during the practices in the fall when they
5:15
Speaker 1: were running those kind of side by side fields and
5:18
Speaker 1: even in the spring where you got you could see
5:21
Speaker 1: different guys running the same basic plays against sort of
5:25
Speaker 1: an amalgamation of the ones and the twos on defense,
5:28
Speaker 1: and he didn't look wildly out of place as a
5:30
Speaker 1: true freshman. That's a very impressive marker for his career.
5:34
Speaker 1: Well obviously, as I said, to get to see a
5:37
Speaker 1: lot more about of him once spring ball does open.
5:40
Speaker 1: Next guy is Lincoln Keenholtz. He is, and this is
5:43
Speaker 1: bizarre to say, the most experienced player in that quarterback room,
5:48
Speaker 1: having arrived at Ohio State in June of twenty twenty three. Boy,
5:52
Speaker 1: so long ago. Boy, he you know, basically a year
5:55
Speaker 1: and a half at Ohio State eighteen months and that
5:58
Speaker 1: makes you the grizzled veteran in this quarterback room. He's
6:02
Speaker 1: someone who when he was getting to campus, and when
6:06
Speaker 1: he was first on campus in twenty twenty three, you
6:08
Speaker 1: heard a ton of good stuff. The coaching staff really
6:12
Speaker 1: really liked him. He got thrown into the fire in
6:15
Speaker 1: sort of an unfair kind of way in that cotton
6:18
Speaker 1: ball at the end of that year, and the numbers
6:19
Speaker 1: didn't look great from that game. But that's one where
6:22
Speaker 1: I think you really have to kind of go that
6:24
Speaker 1: really wasn't a fair spot to get put into and
6:27
Speaker 1: then didn't end up throwing a pass, as you said
6:30
Speaker 1: this year, So you know, he's been here for eighteen months,
6:33
Speaker 1: but he's almost as much of an unknown in some
6:35
Speaker 1: way as Julian saying is he is.
6:38
Speaker 2: And Olivia it was ton of twenty five or Sowtone
6:42
Speaker 2: of twenty two as a as a true freshman in
6:45
Speaker 2: twenty twenty three, and yeah, it came to Ohio State
6:49
Speaker 2: knowing that he was going to need to develop and
6:51
Speaker 2: has also has said all the right things about developing
6:55
Speaker 2: at Ohio State, and like, when you're here for two
6:58
Speaker 2: years as a quarterback and you really have played, the
7:00
Speaker 2: questions are like, so why are you still here? Like
7:03
Speaker 2: you know you can transfer right like by you know
7:07
Speaker 2: what's wrong? Are you are you not allowed to leave
7:10
Speaker 2: the state? You know, questions like that, and he has
7:13
Speaker 2: talked about, I know he said it before the season, like,
7:16
Speaker 2: if I don't win a job here, the coaching that
7:18
Speaker 2: I'm going to get, if I don't win a job
7:19
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty four, the coaching that I'm going to
7:22
Speaker 2: get is going to help me prepare to compete for
7:25
Speaker 2: the job in twenty twenty five. So got a really
7:28
Speaker 2: good approach and a really solid athlete. It's going to
7:32
Speaker 2: be a fun competition to watch. But yeah, like he
7:38
Speaker 2: didn't get to play much this year, and so he's
7:40
Speaker 2: gonna have to show some things in spring and beyond that,
7:44
Speaker 2: if there is beyond that. And I hate even saying that,
7:48
Speaker 2: but we're talking about quarterbacks. So we kind of have to,
7:51
Speaker 2: you know, break down the fourth wall or whatever and
7:53
Speaker 2: just be more open about these things when we talk
7:55
Speaker 2: about it, because you know, if somebody's probably leaving based
7:58
Speaker 2: on you know what, and I all can keep you
8:03
Speaker 2: can help keep you. But playing time is the kind
8:05
Speaker 2: of the ultimate thing that that quarterbacks want. And and
8:09
Speaker 2: if the young guy gets beaten out by a young guy,
8:11
Speaker 2: then that's you know, that's that's some of the writing
8:14
Speaker 2: on the wall that we always talked about with transfers.
8:17
Speaker 1: It is, and I do wonder how much that applies here.
8:21
Speaker 1: It's certainly a possibility. But he's also he has three
8:25
Speaker 1: years of eligibility remaining. He red shirted in twenty twenty three,
8:29
Speaker 1: and so you he does have this year, and then
8:32
Speaker 1: he has twenty twenty five, and then he has twenty
8:34
Speaker 1: twenty six, and he has twenty twenty seven. So you know,
8:37
Speaker 1: even if he if they do ultimately end at the
8:39
Speaker 1: side that Julian Saye wins the job, you are number one.
8:42
Speaker 1: You're one snap away from going from QB two to
8:45
Speaker 1: QB one. We have seen that happen many times in
8:47
Speaker 1: the past. And you also, you have two more years.
8:50
Speaker 1: And if you believe you're getting developed well at Ohio State,
8:53
Speaker 1: and based on the track record, you would certainly think
8:56
Speaker 1: that you would feel like you're getting developed pretty well
8:58
Speaker 1: at Ohio State, and you're one snap away from being
9:00
Speaker 1: the starter in what could be again a sixteen type
9:04
Speaker 1: game season for Ohio State in twenty twenty five. That
9:08
Speaker 1: doesn't seem like a terrible option as opposed to going
9:10
Speaker 1: in transferring in somewhere else after spring ball and having
9:13
Speaker 1: to learn a new playbook and all that kind of stuff.
9:15
Speaker 1: So I don't know that that's totally a given. The
9:18
Speaker 1: other interesting piece of his story is he came in
9:21
Speaker 1: a year earlier than Julian saying, but he doesn't really
9:24
Speaker 1: have a full year of head start on Julian Saye.
9:29
Speaker 1: Number one. He came in in the in the summer,
9:31
Speaker 1: so then you missed out in the spring, and that
9:33
Speaker 1: was a result of him being a three sport athlete
9:36
Speaker 1: and wanting to finish his high school career with his
9:39
Speaker 1: you know, with his high school team, and that was
9:41
Speaker 1: you know, that's a very very noble and admirable thing
9:44
Speaker 1: to want to do. But it also means he missed
9:48
Speaker 1: out on spring ball. And then based on where he
9:51
Speaker 1: played his high school ball, he missed out on he
9:55
Speaker 1: wasn't playing you know, Julian Saye is playing like big
9:58
Speaker 1: school California high high level competition, and Lincoln Kinghols was
10:03
Speaker 1: playing in South Dakota. So there's probably a little bit
10:06
Speaker 1: of a step up learning curve there for him that
10:09
Speaker 1: there isn't necessarily And you know, we'll get to ta
10:11
Speaker 1: V in Saint Clair, who's maybe running into this to
10:14
Speaker 1: a lesser degree, but this is this is something where
10:17
Speaker 1: it's probably a little bit bit of a bigger step
10:19
Speaker 1: up for him. So that six month head start might
10:22
Speaker 1: just sort of make him more even with Julian saying.
10:26
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's very valid. And when you watch some of
10:29
Speaker 2: his highlights in high school, you can tell he's the
10:31
Speaker 2: best player on the field at all times. He's the
10:33
Speaker 2: best athlete, the best runner, probably the best safety if
10:37
Speaker 2: he did any of that, but just very very good
10:41
Speaker 2: at a very low level, the relative level, because I
10:46
Speaker 2: remember talking to his high school head coach and he's like, yeah,
10:50
Speaker 2: we have we've had good players here, but the good
10:52
Speaker 2: players in this area generally end up at like North
10:54
Speaker 2: Dakota State or South Dakota State or you know something
10:57
Speaker 2: like that. He's like, oh, we did have one guy
10:59
Speaker 2: that ended up at Minnesota once. And that's really the
11:03
Speaker 2: extent of it. So you're not going to go from
11:06
Speaker 2: from South Dakota from peer high school to then Ohio
11:11
Speaker 2: State and not have to grow with it. I think
11:14
Speaker 2: I think some of the good news is that he
11:16
Speaker 2: saw Devin Brown wait three years before moving on and
11:20
Speaker 2: and and tried to win the job and compete for it,
11:24
Speaker 2: and was there as a backup. And I'm not saying
11:27
Speaker 2: Lincoln Kenoles is going to be the backup because I've
11:30
Speaker 2: seen I've not seen enough from Julian saying who think
11:32
Speaker 2: he's definitely going to win the job other than the
11:35
Speaker 2: fact that he's the highest remaining person on the depth chart,
11:38
Speaker 2: But he's not so high that he's not catchable by
11:43
Speaker 2: Lincoln Keenholes. And you know, two three years in you
11:47
Speaker 2: start to you know, this is your your your first
11:50
Speaker 2: language by that point, like you're your native speaker of this.
11:54
Speaker 2: And uh, I'm fascinated to see what it looks like
11:57
Speaker 2: when he has the opportunity to be getting at least
12:02
Speaker 2: a third of the snaps in the spring, because when
12:04
Speaker 2: we see him, he's usually fourth fifth and getting some
12:08
Speaker 2: you know, third, fourth fifth and not getting as much
12:11
Speaker 2: work as as he could. And boy, he's probably gonna
12:14
Speaker 2: get all the work he can take in the spring.
12:16
Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure. There are lots of guys who are
12:18
Speaker 1: veterans coming back who might might have an easy spring,
12:21
Speaker 1: or not an easy spring, but a lighter spring workload.
12:24
Speaker 1: Let's say I do not think either of those quarterbacks
12:26
Speaker 1: are going to be part of that now, and I
12:28
Speaker 1: don't think Tavi in Saint Clair is either I have
12:31
Speaker 1: already seen well Tony, he's a five star quarterback coming in.
12:35
Speaker 1: So so there are people who cannot wait to tell
12:38
Speaker 1: you that secretly he may be the one who wins
12:40
Speaker 1: the job. And to me coming in, you know, again,
12:44
Speaker 1: he did not play massive, massive schools. You know he's not.
12:48
Speaker 1: He was not playing Lakewood, Saint Ed's or you know,
12:52
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Mohler, you know teams like that. You know, big, big,
12:55
Speaker 1: impressive Ohio high school teams. He's playing some smaller school
12:58
Speaker 1: schools played for Bell found So that's just a function
13:01
Speaker 1: of the league that his high school played in. But
13:04
Speaker 1: you're not coming in having played this like national schedule
13:07
Speaker 1: by any means. And generally, if a true freshman quarterback
13:11
Speaker 1: comes in and wins the job, it is either an
13:14
Speaker 1: unbelievably great piece of news for your team or an
13:18
Speaker 1: unbelievably bad piece of news for your team.
13:23
Speaker 2: Yeah, and the way things look right now, I had
13:27
Speaker 2: somebody asking me about him, like, so, you know, how
13:29
Speaker 2: good is he? What kind of level of play was he?
13:32
Speaker 2: I'm like, well, and this is no disrespect to farmers,
13:35
Speaker 2: but I said, he's throwing against farmers and in terms
13:38
Speaker 2: of his high school competition and you know, growing up
13:41
Speaker 2: and being part of that same level. Like I couldn't
13:45
Speaker 2: imagine somebody going from that to Ohio State and not
13:48
Speaker 2: having to really slow things down and grow. But he
13:51
Speaker 2: is saying all that. He's very advanced, and he looks
13:55
Speaker 2: like you want a college quarterback to look in every
13:58
Speaker 2: single way. And he's athletic, and we've seen him grow
14:02
Speaker 2: over the years in camps and seven on sevens to
14:05
Speaker 2: be like from a no brilliant they offer this guy
14:09
Speaker 2: to like, oh, I see you know, you see each
14:12
Speaker 2: year him grow and see why they offered him. And
14:15
Speaker 2: so yeah, when we've seen true freshman start at Ohio State,
14:19
Speaker 2: it's not right away. It was not right away for
14:22
Speaker 2: Treell Prior, was not right away for Braxton Miller. I
14:25
Speaker 2: think we've talked recently. I remember people wanting Justin'swick to
14:28
Speaker 2: start in two thousand and two over Craig Crenzel. Imagine
14:30
Speaker 2: if that would have happened. So yeah, freshman starting. Freshman
14:35
Speaker 2: quarterbacks are nice on the video games, but they're not
14:38
Speaker 2: always so nice on the field.
14:40
Speaker 1: But you.
14:43
Speaker 2: Know, you might start slowly, but there are some guys
14:46
Speaker 2: as true freshmen there might be some growing pains, but
14:49
Speaker 2: by the time you hit November December something like that,
14:52
Speaker 2: then they stopped being freshman and they start being something more.
14:56
Speaker 1: Yeah, he is someone who he's a little bit of
14:59
Speaker 1: a put a pin in it, and let's revisit this
15:01
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty six, or at least in November twenty
15:04
Speaker 1: twenty five. The talent is there, the height is there.
15:08
Speaker 1: He's been around the Ohio State football program as much
15:11
Speaker 1: as just about anyone who is not literally actively on
15:14
Speaker 1: the team over the last couple of years. That's going
15:17
Speaker 1: to give him a nice head start as well. But
15:20
Speaker 1: you do not want if you have national championship aspirations,
15:23
Speaker 1: you do not want to have a true freshman quarterback,
15:26
Speaker 1: almost regardless of how talented that true freshman quarterback is,
15:30
Speaker 1: and Avian ze Claiir is talented, but you're going to
15:33
Speaker 1: want to have a year of learning behind some guys
15:36
Speaker 1: with a little more experience, and then you see where
15:38
Speaker 1: you know, see where he is in a year. The
15:41
Speaker 1: last question, then Tony is who else is there another
15:44
Speaker 1: guy that they need to bring in there? Ryanda has
15:47
Speaker 1: talked about liking to have four scholarship quarterbacks in that room.
15:52
Speaker 1: He had five last year, he has three right now,
15:55
Speaker 1: what is the likelihood or you know, do you think
15:58
Speaker 1: that's something that they're going to be looking to bring in.
16:00
Speaker 1: And if they do bring someone in, and this would
16:02
Speaker 1: presumably be after spring, my assumption is this is probably
16:06
Speaker 1: not someone who's going to be immediately the front runner
16:09
Speaker 1: for the starting position.
16:11
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think they're going to bring somebody in. And
16:13
Speaker 2: you know, you got to figure right now, they have
16:15
Speaker 2: a total of one hundred and ninety five career passing
16:18
Speaker 2: yards on the roster, and that's just including the quarterbacks.
16:21
Speaker 2: There may be some random receiver passing yards or something
16:24
Speaker 2: like that. I don't think there are, but you want
16:27
Speaker 2: to Yes, Ryan Day wants four, but he also wants
16:30
Speaker 2: to have somebody who's done this before. And the last
16:33
Speaker 2: time Looking Keynols did this, he was running for his
16:35
Speaker 2: life against Missouri at the end of the twenty twenty
16:38
Speaker 2: three season. So yeah, I think they do want to
16:41
Speaker 2: bring somebody in. But it's an interesting thing, like can
16:45
Speaker 2: you convince somebody who has starting experience and that is good?
16:51
Speaker 2: So could you convince Will Howard or somebody like of
16:55
Speaker 2: that level that you can come here and compete for
16:58
Speaker 2: the job while also convincing insane and look at Keynolds.
17:02
Speaker 2: He's not coming here. You know, the job is still
17:04
Speaker 2: wide open, and so there's this maybe you have to
17:08
Speaker 2: dial it down. It can't be Will Howard. Has to
17:10
Speaker 2: be somebody like, you know, five eighths of Will Howard
17:14
Speaker 2: or you know, sixth seventh. It can't be quite that
17:17
Speaker 2: level because you don't want to scare anybody away, but
17:20
Speaker 2: still somebody that is good enough. Should the young guys
17:24
Speaker 2: not work out that your season is not completely lost.
17:26
Speaker 2: So it's gonna be fascinating to see what ry Day
17:29
Speaker 2: does there and how he does that, how he massages things,
17:32
Speaker 2: and how they operate.
17:34
Speaker 1: I think if we're gonna put this in terms of
17:36
Speaker 1: former Big twelve quarterbacks like Will Howard who transferred from
17:39
Speaker 1: Kansas State, you're not getting a Dylan Gabriel he went
17:41
Speaker 1: from Oklahoma to Oregon. You're not getting a Will Howard necessarily,
17:45
Speaker 1: who went from Kansas State to Ohio State. You might
17:47
Speaker 1: be getting like an Alan Bowman Hype who went from
17:51
Speaker 1: you know, he kind of ping ponged around a bunch.
17:53
Speaker 1: I'm not going to get the order of this right,
17:55
Speaker 1: but it was something like Texas Tech to Michigan to
17:58
Speaker 1: Oklahoma State, and there might have been another stop in
18:00
Speaker 1: there somewhere where you get kind of the veteran journeyman
18:04
Speaker 1: kind of type. And we sort of always shorthand this
18:07
Speaker 1: as the Chris Chugganoff type. And chug went to West
18:11
Speaker 1: Virginia and started a couple of games, but was not
18:15
Speaker 1: the like multi year starter or anything like that. And
18:18
Speaker 1: he came in and was an incredibly valuable backup for
18:21
Speaker 1: Ohio State and came in and played some very meaningful
18:23
Speaker 1: snaps at certain times, and was he you know, the
18:26
Speaker 1: reason we call this the you know, the Chris Chugganoff
18:29
Speaker 1: type model is because he was like the perfect example
18:32
Speaker 1: of what they're looking for right here, where it's a
18:33
Speaker 1: guy who's played before, a guy who's a veteran, a
18:36
Speaker 1: guy who's not coming in assuming he's going to be
18:38
Speaker 1: the starter necessarily, and someone who can come in and
18:42
Speaker 1: if you need a break glass interior type in case
18:44
Speaker 1: of emergency type of guy. That's what you're looking for.
18:47
Speaker 1: So we will see who they can find. If they
18:50
Speaker 1: can find someone that's probably more of a post spring
18:53
Speaker 1: conversation the boy, is there going to be plenty to
18:55
Speaker 1: talk about this spring as the buck Eyes start to
18:58
Speaker 1: defend their national championship hip. Following that quarterback battle quite closely,
