- 1:23Speaker 5: I left you open for a line there as well. Uh,
- 1:26Speaker 5: let me know when you're when you're done here.
- 1:28Speaker 4: Okay, we're gonna do college football.
- 1:30Speaker 5: And then at a twenty five, I want to talk
- 1:33Speaker 5: about what the fact that the Panthers with Devin Lloyd's inclusion,
- 1:38Speaker 5: then we found out about yesterday what the Panthers having
- 1:40Speaker 5: five players on the NFL Player's Top one hundred means
- 1:45Speaker 5: about Dan Morgan putting the roster together. We're gonna have
- 1:48Speaker 5: that conversation coming up at eight twenty five, Sloppy Joe
- 1:53Speaker 5: and Sandwich conversations Bone coming up at eight forty five.
- 1:56Speaker 5: What a full hour of radio that is. And we're
- 1:59Speaker 5: glad y'all are hanging with us. Let's get to the
- 2:02Speaker 5: talking heads talking college football. So we are at that
- 2:04Speaker 5: time of year, Bone, where we're talking you know, college football,
- 2:08Speaker 5: but the national guys, right, all the national podcasts, I mean,
- 2:11Speaker 5: everybody's hot and heavy with what they expect from teams
- 2:14Speaker 5: during the upcoming season. So I want to just listen
- 2:18Speaker 5: to a lot of these national takes. And there is
- 2:20Speaker 5: Clemson's involved in one, NC State's involved in one. But
- 2:24Speaker 5: let's start with Danny Cannell on Notre Dame and some
- 2:28Speaker 5: of You might think I take great joy in this.
- 2:31Speaker 5: I do not bone take great joy in this. But
- 2:34Speaker 5: this is Danny Cannell, a little skeptical bone of the
- 2:37Speaker 5: immense hype that Notre Dame is getting.
- 2:39Speaker 4: Listen to this.
- 2:40Speaker 6: That's what I like to unload. Is when a stock
- 2:42Speaker 6: feels like it's a little bit top heavy and everybody's
- 2:45Speaker 6: in on it, That to me is the Notre Dame
- 2:47Speaker 6: fighting irish. I look at everybody. There's a lot of
- 2:50Speaker 6: predictions for them to be in the college football playoffs,
- 2:52Speaker 6: but this one, really, to me, is about the feeling
- 2:55Speaker 6: of what they could be. I am selling Notre Dame
- 2:57Speaker 6: as a national championship. The reason why I think they're
- 3:03Speaker 6: a lack of competition in the regular season, which is
- 3:05Speaker 6: only a three game schedule with BYU, SMU and Miami.
- 3:09Speaker 6: I think that eventually comes back to hautuam in the postseasons.
- 3:12Speaker 6: What do we see last year with Ohio State perfect
- 3:15Speaker 6: in the regular season, they go to the Big Ten title,
- 3:17Speaker 6: get beat by Indiana, go to the playoff, get beet
- 3:19Speaker 6: by Miami. First time they really were battle tested. I
- 3:22Speaker 6: think you could see the same outcome from Notre Dame.
- 3:24Speaker 6: Still bullish on them in the regular season to make
- 3:26Speaker 6: it there. But their ceiling is what I'm selling.
- 3:29Speaker 4: What do you make of that?
- 3:31Speaker 5: Bone? You and I both have been contributing to the
- 3:35Speaker 5: Notre Dame hype. So what do you think about Canal
- 3:37Speaker 5: saying they're not national title contenders?
- 3:40Speaker 7: Really?
- 3:40Speaker 3: Well?
- 3:41Speaker 2: I asked this question to mister Canell because he and
- 3:44Speaker 2: the other Clipmac. He's got Indiana number one in the country, right,
- 3:49Speaker 2: Indiana national champs?
- 3:50Speaker 4: I get it.
- 3:51Speaker 2: But if you're talking about competition, who does Indiana MAC
- 3:55Speaker 2: get tested by? Do they have more than a three
- 3:57Speaker 2: game schedule? Because they start with North Texas, Howard Western
- 4:01Speaker 2: Kentucky and Northwestern at home. Then it's Rutgers in Nebraska.
- 4:05Speaker 2: They do have Ohio State in Michigan. But beyond that,
- 4:08Speaker 2: what's not act? Like Danny Canell, your number one team
- 4:11Speaker 2: also has the toughest sit in America either there, buddy.
- 4:13Speaker 4: And how about Indiana schedule last year?
- 4:16Speaker 7: Right?
- 4:17Speaker 5: I know they had the Oregon game. I know they
- 4:19Speaker 5: got tested by Penn State. But Penn State, I know
- 4:22Speaker 5: first hand sadly was not a great football team last year.
- 4:27Speaker 5: I know Iowa tested them, but like I gotta be
- 4:30Speaker 5: honest for Notre Dame a three game schedule. That ain't
- 4:33Speaker 5: that bad for Notre Dame. I've seen worse one of them,
- 4:36Speaker 5: Miami BYU and who's the other one? Why am I blanking?
- 4:42Speaker 5: He just said it, but I forgot twenty said, why
- 4:43Speaker 5: am I blanking on this? I'm sitting here trying to
- 4:45Speaker 5: hype Notre Dame.
- 4:46Speaker 3: Up and play Wisconsin in the opener, and.
- 4:48Speaker 4: He's not including that one.
- 4:49Speaker 5: Not Now, he's not including the Heels either, Fitty for
- 4:52Speaker 5: some reason, panther bow. He's not including the Purdue game
- 4:54Speaker 5: they play SMU SMU right, So he said that's so,
- 4:58Speaker 5: he says, SMU.
- 4:59Speaker 4: B and Miami at three games.
- 5:02Speaker 2: Three, that's three potential top fifteen teams at least. Yeah,
- 5:09Speaker 2: sm you could work their way up. That's the end
- 5:10Speaker 2: of the year, right, I think they could be up
- 5:12Speaker 2: there in the playoff. Chase B why you we know
- 5:15Speaker 2: is solid and Miami could be away up there in
- 5:17Speaker 2: the I mean they might be number one verse two
- 5:19Speaker 2: when they play each other.
- 5:20Speaker 4: I would argue, we're Indy.
- 5:22Speaker 5: Where Indiana's top three regular season games last year?
- 5:25Speaker 4: Harder than that?
- 5:26Speaker 5: Now, Now, the Indiana did have to play a conference
- 5:29Speaker 5: tittle game against Ohio State, Notre Dame. I don't know
- 5:31Speaker 5: if y'all have noticed they're too elite to join a conference,
- 5:34Speaker 5: but so like they won't get an extra game like
- 5:36Speaker 5: Indiana did there. But I don't know if I'm really
- 5:39Speaker 5: buying this take, man, I've seen plenty of national champions
- 5:44Speaker 5: Bone blow through a schedule where you're like, man, they
- 5:46Speaker 5: were only tested twice, you know what I mean, and
- 5:49Speaker 5: go on and win a.
- 5:49Speaker 2: National I also say something back in defense a Notre
- 5:52Speaker 2: Dame schedule. I have seen a number of people have
- 5:56Speaker 2: Navy also as a playoff team this year as a
- 5:58Speaker 2: group of uh whatever group they are now, they're still
- 6:01Speaker 2: group of five, six, group of six now as the
- 6:04Speaker 2: group of six representative. I'm not saying Navy is the
- 6:06Speaker 2: greatest team, but they are been predicted to be a
- 6:09Speaker 2: playoff team as well, and that's a neutral sight game.
- 6:12Speaker 5: Bagel Guy wants to know why Golden Bone is a
- 6:14Speaker 5: Notre Dame fan.
- 6:16Speaker 4: I have a question for Bengel Guy.
- 6:18Speaker 2: Bagel Guy, I have a question for you, buddy, Why
- 6:21Speaker 2: don't you ever talk about your own team? You are
- 6:24Speaker 2: a Florida State fan, and I think you've mentioned them.
- 6:27Speaker 2: Let me check three times in about a decade. Why
- 6:30Speaker 2: don't you focus on yourself one day in your own team. Wow,
- 6:33Speaker 2: when your coach gets fired in about four games.
- 6:35Speaker 4: I'm talking to them.
- 6:36Speaker 5: Oh God, I feel dirty defending Notre Dame this much,
- 6:40Speaker 5: But I really think, to me, the difference for Notre
- 6:42Speaker 5: Dame is we know they're well coached. You know they're
- 6:45Speaker 5: going to I know they lost that backfield bone, but
- 6:49Speaker 5: I believe they're going to be strong in the trenches
- 6:51Speaker 5: like they always are, and they're going to run the ball.
- 6:52Speaker 5: Because of that, I think that quarterback is the best
- 6:55Speaker 5: quarterback that they have had in decades. I think I
- 6:59Speaker 5: said I think he'd be my pick for the Heisman.
- 7:01Speaker 5: I think CJ. Carr is all that, and I think
- 7:03Speaker 5: that takes Notre Dame to another level. They were National
- 7:07Speaker 5: title game good with Riley Leonard right, who's a baller
- 7:09Speaker 5: and a gamer and a playmaker. But this dude, I
- 7:13Speaker 5: think bone is going to light fools again.
- 7:17Speaker 2: Lenard Moore may be the best overall player in the
- 7:20Speaker 2: country on defense. And the one question I have, yes,
- 7:23Speaker 2: I do think you're righting about CJ.
- 7:25Speaker 4: Carr.
- 7:26Speaker 2: They have to replace all the usage in production of
- 7:29Speaker 2: Jeremiah Love that'll be one of the interesting days to watch.
- 7:31Speaker 4: Buck Eye Dave.
- 7:33Speaker 5: But again, like their line, you know what I mean,
- 7:36Speaker 5: Like I feel like handed to aneas Williams behind that
- 7:38Speaker 5: Notre Dame line, and I think they'll still run it.
- 7:42Speaker 5: Buck Eye Dave says, let's talk Ohio State and not
- 7:44Speaker 5: these mediacre programs are talking Indiana day. Let you do
- 7:47Speaker 5: it all us like Notre Dame. Buck Eye, Dave, stay
- 7:51Speaker 5: by your radio. Danny Canell's got something for you too,
- 7:53Speaker 5: that's coming up in a few minutes. You ain't gonna
- 7:56Speaker 5: be happy either with Danny Canell Davey. But let's get
- 7:59Speaker 5: to some of the local teams that were talked about
- 8:01Speaker 5: bone nationally. Let's get to Greg McElroy. Who is It's
- 8:07Speaker 5: not a big surprise, but he tells you who the
- 8:10Speaker 5: person is that is the key to whether or not
- 8:13Speaker 5: Clemson is a playoff contender.
- 8:15Speaker 4: Listen to this.
- 8:16Speaker 8: Because they still have one of the top front sevens
- 8:20Speaker 8: in the league. Along the defensive front, Will Helt is
- 8:22Speaker 8: a legitimate star off the edge. He had fifteen and
- 8:25Speaker 8: a half tackles for loss and seven a half sacks
- 8:27Speaker 8: a year ago. Sammy Brown is a first team All
- 8:29Speaker 8: acc linebacker who anchors one of the best rooms in
- 8:32Speaker 8: the conference. The defense can be nasty. The entire season
- 8:36Speaker 8: might hinge on just one question. It's the quarterback.
- 8:39Speaker 4: Kid.
- 8:39Speaker 8: Klubnik had forty career starts and he's gone, and Dabo
- 8:43Speaker 8: being Dabo, he didn't necessarily want to go and get
- 8:46Speaker 8: a portal quarterback. He said, Look, Christopher Vinzena has been
- 8:50Speaker 8: sitting here and he's been ready, he's been waiting for
- 8:53Speaker 8: this opportunity. Is a fourth year player with one career start.
- 8:56Speaker 8: But here's the thing about that one start. It came
- 8:58Speaker 8: against SMU. Zina through for three seventeen and three touchdowns.
- 9:03Speaker 8: If that guy shows up, this could very easily become
- 9:07Speaker 8: a playoff team.
- 9:09Speaker 2: What do you think, Bonesy, they could? But well, I
- 9:13Speaker 2: don't know if easily he's the right word. I mean, yes,
- 9:16Speaker 2: there's a path, but I don't.
- 9:18Speaker 4: I don't. I just don't see it. I don't. It
- 9:20Speaker 4: easily seemed like a strong word. He is right.
- 9:22Speaker 5: Vezina played very good against SMU in his only start
- 9:26Speaker 5: he had. He has a damn good wide receiver room there.
- 9:31Speaker 5: I actually I think the tight ends pat Henry being
- 9:34Speaker 5: I think they got good tight ends and I think
- 9:36Speaker 5: adding Chris Johnson from the from SMU. I think the
- 9:41Speaker 5: combination of getting in Davison and Chris Johnson could be
- 9:43Speaker 5: a hell of of a running back room. I think
- 9:46Speaker 5: they can get to nine games. I just I'm not
- 9:48Speaker 5: sure about ten. I feel like they would need ten
- 9:50Speaker 5: and two at least bone to get into the playoffs
- 9:53Speaker 5: unless they get their way in and beat Miami. But
- 9:56Speaker 5: I don't know if I'd bet on on them beating
- 9:58Speaker 5: Miami though.
- 9:59Speaker 2: They LSU is gonna be tough Miami. As you mentioned,
- 10:03Speaker 2: they have not fared well.
- 10:04Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know.
- 10:05Speaker 2: How good Duke's gonna be. They have not played well
- 10:07Speaker 2: against Duke the last couple of games. That's not been
- 10:10Speaker 2: anything of what it used to be. They've got the
- 10:12Speaker 2: game cocks at the end. That game could mean as
- 10:14Speaker 2: much as it did a couple of years ago. And
- 10:16Speaker 2: another sneaky game to monitor for Clemson at Cal on
- 10:22Speaker 2: a Friday night. That's going to be a short week.
- 10:25Speaker 2: It's gonna be a sleepy kind of game where no
- 10:27Speaker 2: one's really gonna talk much about it. Their quarterback is great.
- 10:31Speaker 2: That could be a spot where all of a sudden
- 10:32Speaker 2: we look up at Clemson's in a heck of a
- 10:34Speaker 2: game with the cow Might col might be better this
- 10:37Speaker 2: year than a lot of people are participating.
- 10:39Speaker 5: Dude, call up set Louisville in SMU last year. Yeah,
- 10:42Speaker 5: they'd be two of the best teams in the conference
- 10:43Speaker 5: last year and sagapool it. Telly's back for another year. Yeah,
- 10:47Speaker 5: they're definitely dangerous. They are, they're beaten. They'll beat a
- 10:50Speaker 5: team or two at least this year.
- 10:52Speaker 4: And it could. You know, they call Chris bourbon Meck
- 10:55Speaker 4: a saga player pants up on a roll today.
- 11:00Speaker 5: Yeah, well, these chunks today, very mature, very mature today.
- 11:05Speaker 4: All right, seven oh four, five, seven oh nine, six ten.
- 11:08Speaker 5: But he is right about Vizina Ken He he's got
- 11:12Speaker 5: good talent at the skill positions at his disposal.
- 11:16Speaker 4: Can he make use of it?
- 11:18Speaker 5: All right, let'sh And what's the offense gonna be like
- 11:21Speaker 5: with Chad Morris. That's a big, that's a bit. I
- 11:24Speaker 5: think they're gonna run it more. I think they're gonna
- 11:26Speaker 5: commit to the run more. But I mean, that's been
- 11:28Speaker 5: it's been it's been a while. It's been a while
- 11:32Speaker 5: since his glory days and Clemson. All right, let's move
- 11:35Speaker 5: along here. David Pollock, you didn't think bone we were
- 11:39Speaker 5: doing the talking heads talk college football, went out a
- 11:42Speaker 5: national media guy given praise to the NC State wolf Pack.
- 11:46Speaker 5: Did you you didn't think that was happening. If you did,
- 11:49Speaker 5: you a fool, Because here it is, baby, get your
- 11:51Speaker 5: wolf back fingers in the air, everybody, because CJ. Bailey
- 11:55Speaker 5: is a stud and David Pollock knows it.
- 11:59Speaker 7: Yeah. I think when you look at NC State, they
- 12:01Speaker 7: didn't have the season Virginia had a year ago. They
- 12:03Speaker 7: were eight and five, but they won four of its
- 12:05Speaker 7: final five games, right Like, they finished the year convincing
- 12:09Speaker 7: win against Memphis and that kind of changed the tone
- 12:13Speaker 7: of the offseason for them. But they got CJ. Bailey
- 12:16Speaker 7: coming back, and they know that obviously, they know exactly
- 12:19Speaker 7: what they have and they got a dude. They can rush,
- 12:22Speaker 7: they can throw it and listen. The thing about Bailey
- 12:24Speaker 7: is like his completion percentage was really good to go
- 12:27Speaker 7: along with twenty five touchdown passes or twenty nine touchdowns
- 12:31Speaker 7: last season, Like he completed almost seventy of his passes,
- 12:34Speaker 7: you know, seventy percent of his passes like some really
- 12:36Speaker 7: really good number. He's got twenty two starts like less guessing,
- 12:41Speaker 7: and I think too. The only thing to me that
- 12:43Speaker 7: stops NC State from having a great season is injuries
- 12:46Speaker 7: because they're not deep across the board, and last year
- 12:49Speaker 7: that kind of derailed them. But man, I think they've
- 12:51Speaker 7: got They've done a great job of adding Doser at
- 12:54Speaker 7: wide receiver, which is which is really really good. They
- 12:56Speaker 7: need that. They added several players to get that have
- 12:59Speaker 7: connection to South Florida or the South Florida high school days.
- 13:03Speaker 5: With Bailey, don't sleep on davey on Dozier Bone the
- 13:06Speaker 5: app State transfer. I think that's an underrated portal pickup
- 13:10Speaker 5: at wide receiver, Jojoe Trader from Miami back with his
- 13:13Speaker 5: high school teammates C J. Bailey, And I'm telling you man,
- 13:17Speaker 5: Duke Scott looked the part late in the season last
- 13:20Speaker 5: year at running back. So I like it. I like
- 13:23Speaker 5: the state optimism. I know it's scaring State fans.
- 13:26Speaker 2: They're gonna get all this hype and I think the
- 13:28Speaker 2: season may be typical Vincy State and they're gonna lose
- 13:32Speaker 2: the first game. Virginia's coming off their best season ever.
- 13:39Speaker 2: Are talking about that.
- 13:40Speaker 5: Virginia won a lot of squeezed by the hair of
- 13:43Speaker 5: your Chinny chin Chin games.
- 13:45Speaker 4: And they lost one Nancy State last year. I'm going
- 13:47Speaker 4: to tell you that way.
- 13:48Speaker 5: I'm going to tell you right now, I don't think
- 13:50Speaker 5: bo Perbula will play as well as Morris. We once
- 13:54Speaker 5: could get back in there, though, now right I don't.
- 13:57Speaker 5: I don't think they're going I don't know what's going
- 13:59Speaker 5: on with that. I don't bo Pribuolah last year at Missouri.
- 14:04Speaker 5: I think I think you saw why he was a
- 14:06Speaker 5: backup at Penn State, and I don't think he I
- 14:09Speaker 5: know he can run. I know he's a dual threat.
- 14:11Speaker 5: I'm not expecting Virginia to win. Hell, they lost a
- 14:13Speaker 5: close game to State, but it felt like they won
- 14:15Speaker 5: every other one. I'm not expecting things to go perfectly
- 14:18Speaker 5: like that. Not saying they beat camp beat State or
- 14:21Speaker 5: Miami for Virginia the year. Can I give you an
- 14:23Speaker 5: observation I have made about preseason Bone here that you
- 14:27Speaker 5: look at looks disgusted.
- 14:29Speaker 4: Fitty, here we go, I'm Virginia Bone.
- 14:31Speaker 5: Now, you are not bullish on any local teams except
- 14:38Speaker 5: the game Cocks.
- 14:40Speaker 4: Any cu okay e cu is is another one your
- 14:44Speaker 4: ride said.
- 14:45Speaker 2: I've said that State and ECU might Vue for the
- 14:47Speaker 2: most wins in the state of North Carolina.
- 14:50Speaker 4: I think I think I think it's going to state. Okay,
- 14:53Speaker 4: I just think.
- 14:53Speaker 2: I think, as you lost, a ton of somewhere has
- 14:56Speaker 2: gone along all of a sudden, the wolf Pack.
- 14:58Speaker 4: I've gotten very hyped up here. Bill be good.
- 15:00Speaker 2: But I don't think they're gonna be any different than
- 15:02Speaker 2: they normally are. I think they're gonna end up where
- 15:04Speaker 2: they usually. I mean, listen, don't get me wrong, man.
- 15:06Speaker 5: You could certainly make a case that when NC state
- 15:08Speaker 5: gets hyped up by me and others, bad things come.
- 15:12Speaker 4: Like you could certainly make that case.
- 15:13Speaker 5: What their schedule is just it's an opportunity for what
- 15:18Speaker 5: we'll see if they.
- 15:18Speaker 4: Take local teams. Am I supposed to be hyping up?
- 15:21Speaker 5: I think Clemson you are a little you are a
- 15:22Speaker 5: little underrating. I think State you're underrating. Should the two
- 15:29Speaker 5: that you disagree with that's what That's what you mean. Yeah,
- 15:33Speaker 5: I think you're on that. So it's just about I
- 15:35Speaker 5: disagree with you.
- 15:36Speaker 4: Yeah. Well we'll see.
- 15:37Speaker 5: We'll see over their bonesy, all right, we'll see you
- 15:40Speaker 5: seem a little defiant bone, seem a little defying.
- 15:42Speaker 2: Oh you're trying to call the bone out here, and
- 15:44Speaker 2: I just dot not making a lot of sense to me.
- 15:46Speaker 2: You're not gonna sit there call the bone out. Did
- 15:51Speaker 2: you feel like the bone got called out?
- 15:54Speaker 3: I thought, Matt kind of point.
- 15:55Speaker 4: Oh really, it's like you want a piece of this thing.
- 15:57Speaker 5: You're so high on South Carolina and no other local
- 16:00Speaker 5: team seems like they're winning seven games?
- 16:02Speaker 2: Aren't you high on South Carolina? I never said I
- 16:06Speaker 2: got them seven, right, I never said. I never said
- 16:09Speaker 2: State's winning seven games. I think they're winning eight or nine.
- 16:11Speaker 2: I think they're going to be like it's the same
- 16:13Speaker 2: number I'm giving you. But you but you have them potentially.
- 16:16Speaker 2: Remember last week the Texas that thought they could go
- 16:19Speaker 2: win the ACC.
- 16:20Speaker 4: I'm not going that far. No, I'm not saying that either.
- 16:22Speaker 9: I mean, I think it's more realistic that State wins
- 16:25Speaker 9: the ACC than South Carolina makes the playoff.
- 16:29Speaker 3: Really, and when you.
- 16:30Speaker 2: Say he wins the a CC, you mean goes to
- 16:33Speaker 2: the championship game and wins the conference.
- 16:35Speaker 3: That's what winning the ACC means.
- 16:37Speaker 2: Okay, Well, you don't have to be a smart ass
- 16:39Speaker 2: about it, because here's the thing. Is there more of
- 16:42Speaker 2: a chance that State can get to their conference championship
- 16:45Speaker 2: game more than South Carolina?
- 16:47Speaker 4: Yeah, because you argued that last week.
- 16:48Speaker 2: No, no, but it's a different path state winning the
- 16:52Speaker 2: ACC winning the conference? Are they better than Miami? Are
- 16:56Speaker 2: they better than SMU? Potentially they're not winning the eighth.
- 16:59Speaker 5: But here's my question about they may be able to
- 17:01Speaker 5: get your championship game. And you you argued last week
- 17:04Speaker 5: that South Carolina has a better chance to get to
- 17:06Speaker 5: their title game than State does.
- 17:08Speaker 2: That was about winning it last week, and it was
- 17:10Speaker 2: about winning It was about winning it last week.
- 17:12Speaker 4: How South Carolina gonna win it?
- 17:13Speaker 5: Because allowed me to ask them, ask your question either
- 17:16Speaker 5: are you better in Oklahoma?
- 17:18Speaker 4: Are you better know miss Are you better at LSU?
- 17:20Speaker 4: Are you better? Are you better than Georgia? Are you
- 17:22Speaker 4: better than Texas?
- 17:23Speaker 5: Like there are team teams that South Carolina I don't
- 17:28Speaker 5: think is going to be better than They're going to
- 17:30Speaker 5: be better than.
- 17:31Speaker 2: Last year's South Carolina. Of them are winning their conference championship.
- 17:35Speaker 2: That was my whole point.
- 17:36Speaker 5: But who has a better chance the team that plays
- 17:39Speaker 5: in the ACCU, Well, I'm not They're not gonna win it,
- 17:42Speaker 5: though no one is saying they are. Who has a
- 17:44Speaker 5: better chance the Texter last week said they were. That
- 17:48Speaker 5: was my whole point.
- 17:49Speaker 2: No, the argument was about it was about the text
- 17:51Speaker 2: that said they were gonna win the a SEC and
- 17:52Speaker 2: I said they're not because they're not beating Miami in
- 17:55Speaker 2: the championship game.
- 17:56Speaker 4: They are talking about.
- 17:56Speaker 5: The argument was about who had a better chance South Carolina.
- 17:59Speaker 5: What I know bone there is there is a better
- 18:02Speaker 5: chance the Swedish bikini comes in here and sits on
- 18:06Speaker 5: thing you want it.
- 18:07Speaker 4: That's not possible either. I don't think we can make
- 18:10Speaker 4: that happen.
- 18:11Speaker 2: Was I get diverted from a flight and I have
- 18:12Speaker 2: to find somewhere there's a better chance of that than
- 18:14Speaker 2: South Carolina window and I think South Carolina is going
- 18:17Speaker 2: to be good.
- 18:18Speaker 4: But that sec is Did you wanted an argument this segment?
- 18:20Speaker 4: You got one?
- 18:21Speaker 2: All right, Well let's wish you got. You got your
- 18:22Speaker 2: wish there. Let's move to something to call me out,
- 18:24Speaker 2: and here we go. I didn't want no damn argument.
- 18:27Speaker 2: Oh you didn't want an argument?
- 18:30Speaker 4: Can we go to that? You go to Ohio State?
- 18:31Speaker 4: You didn't want an argument? Can we go to Ohio State?
- 18:34Speaker 2: Don't don't cause a fight and then try to stop it.
- 18:36Speaker 2: I didn't need I didn't need a fight. Oh you
- 18:38Speaker 2: wanted to fight, but we wanted to square up. But
- 18:40Speaker 2: I squared Oh my lord, all right, let me go
- 18:42Speaker 2: to Ohio State. Here, bone, because I don't want to
- 18:44Speaker 2: leave out Buckeye. Don't start the fire if you don't
- 18:47Speaker 2: want to smoke. I don't want to leave out buck Eye,
- 18:50Speaker 2: Dave your bone.
- 18:51Speaker 5: I settle yourself down over there, Hondo, settle yourself, I
- 18:55Speaker 5: buck eyed, Dave, you felt a little left out earlier.
- 18:57Speaker 4: You wanted Ohio State talked about, So I give you.
- 19:00Speaker 5: Danny Knell on their Cover three podcast, also calling out
- 19:05Speaker 5: your Buckeys.
- 19:07Speaker 6: Sometimes you got to make really tough decisions when you're
- 19:09Speaker 6: balancing your portfolio. This one's a tough one. But I
- 19:12Speaker 6: am selling Ohio State, whoa as a lock to make
- 19:16Speaker 6: the college football playoffs. Their schedule is one of the
- 19:19Speaker 6: toughest in the country. The five games that they've got
- 19:22Speaker 6: at Texas, at Iowa, at Indiana, at USC and then
- 19:26Speaker 6: home games against Oregon in the traditional rivalry game against Michigan,
- 19:30Speaker 6: which they haven't had much success. I know they've gotten
- 19:32Speaker 6: last year, but the last few, you know, five six years,
- 19:34Speaker 6: they have not exactly dominated that. I think you could
- 19:37Speaker 6: see a nine and three Ohio State team left out potentially,
- 19:42Speaker 6: and then we could see Ryan Day up there making
- 19:45Speaker 6: the same case that Sarkedy last year about strength of schedule,
- 19:47Speaker 6: how tough it is. I think they are a really
- 19:49Speaker 6: good football team, but I do wonder when it all
- 19:52Speaker 6: stacks up, if they're nine to three, will the committee
- 19:54Speaker 6: give them that d ooh.
- 19:56Speaker 5: Buck got Dave bug got. Jason has never been a
- 19:59Speaker 5: fan of canel in anyway. Well, that makes two of
- 20:02Speaker 5: me at Ohio State. Until it wasn't what he wanted
- 20:04Speaker 5: to hear. It can be a little annoying. Their schedule
- 20:07Speaker 5: is as he marks down there, it's pretty brutal. It's
- 20:11Speaker 5: pretty damn tough. I actually, especially comparison to some of
- 20:14Speaker 5: their other teams in their conference. I think Ohio State
- 20:17Speaker 5: is is is third in their conference this year. I
- 20:19Speaker 5: don't even think they're playing for the conference title game
- 20:21Speaker 5: to the point of their schedule and where they play teams.
- 20:24Speaker 5: But I think, first of all, Oregon is absolutely loaded.
- 20:26Speaker 5: I was listening to Joel Klett yesterday say that's the
- 20:29Speaker 5: most talented roster in American It very well might be.
- 20:32Speaker 5: They are their front seven. I mean, they the weapons
- 20:34Speaker 5: they have. I mean, they had a bunch of wide
- 20:36Speaker 5: receivers got hurt last year. They're coming back. They how
- 20:39Speaker 5: about they're too deep a quarterback Dante Moore and Ryola
- 20:41Speaker 5: Are you kidding me?
- 20:43Speaker 4: But like, yeah, I.
- 20:44Speaker 5: Think I don't know if i'd say I don't know
- 20:46Speaker 5: if i'd say missed the playoff though for Ohio State,
- 20:48Speaker 5: Texas at Indiana at USC and don't sleep on always
- 20:52Speaker 5: tough game matt Iowa as well.
- 20:54Speaker 2: That's never really exactly that easy with them. So yeah,
- 20:58Speaker 2: you're right, it is. Uh yeah, the Indiana USC back
- 21:01Speaker 2: to back is it's Indiana USC Oregon three in a row.
- 21:05Speaker 4: They played that. The organ's at home, so they played.
- 21:07Speaker 5: They play at Texas, yep, they play at Indiana, right, yep.
- 21:13Speaker 5: And they have at USC, They at USC Iowa and
- 21:18Speaker 5: they host Oregon, are you like? And they've had some
- 21:22Speaker 5: problems with their arrival at the end of the year
- 21:24Speaker 5: outside of last year in Michigan.
- 21:25Speaker 4: There are multiple losses there.
- 21:27Speaker 5: But God, Davy oh Man see bone and I brought
- 21:30Speaker 5: back together by Danny Canell, Uh you know, bagging on.
- 21:33Speaker 2: The buck eyes. Yes, there you go. That'll bring us
- 21:36Speaker 2: right back together. And uh Jeremiah Smith overrated and I'm
- 21:39Speaker 2: just kidding. When we come back here on the mack
- 21:41Speaker 2: In Bone Show, the Panthers put a fifth player in
- 21:43Speaker 2: the NFL Top one hundred, we take some time to
- 21:47Speaker 2: admire the improvement of the roster under Dan Morgan. Sports
- 21:51Speaker 2: Radio ninety two seven WFNZ.
- 22:16Speaker 4: Oh shoot.
- 22:17Speaker 5: I was trying to jump ahead, Mancy Bone got me
- 22:19Speaker 5: all frazzled, man got me all frazzled over Swappy Joe
- 22:22Speaker 5: Segment's the most important thing you've ever set up. I'm
- 22:24Speaker 5: very excited to hear Mike Goldi Junior's take on Sloppy
- 22:28Speaker 5: Joe's from ESPN Radio and see how the audience feels.
- 22:31Speaker 5: I didn't think Bone it would get divisive until the
- 22:34Speaker 5: Sloppy Joe segment. That one could.
- 22:36Speaker 4: I don't know. I don't know how that one.
- 22:38Speaker 2: I don't even know what the take was from Michael. Okay,
- 22:42Speaker 2: that's a good team. Didn't here he even got you teased.
- 22:44Speaker 2: I didn't hear it. By the way, Colin.
- 22:45Speaker 5: Doesn't even work on this show, and told me you're
- 22:47Speaker 5: talking about Dan Morgan, how he's building this roster during
- 22:50Speaker 5: this segment, mag It's not sloppy Joe's thank you for that, Colin,
- 22:54Speaker 5: thank you for that. That means Bone's teas worked. I
- 22:57Speaker 5: think you just want to hear the slappy Joe song.
- 23:00Speaker 5: Oh we're playing at baby slop ed Joe. It was
- 23:02Speaker 5: lap sloped j I want well you're playing that one
- 23:05Speaker 5: coming up at.
- 23:06Speaker 4: It's gonna lead to your Adam Sandler impression, isn't it you?
- 23:09Speaker 4: Baby Adam Sandway, you can winter swappy Joe. I need
- 23:12Speaker 4: a bit like a widow baby.
- 23:17Speaker 5: I at least amuse myself with my Adam Sandler baby
- 23:20Speaker 5: talk impression. I'm not amusing anybody else, all right, So
- 23:23Speaker 5: let's lock in here, baby, let's lock in Oh man,
- 23:27Speaker 5: can you tell football's here though?
- 23:28Speaker 4: Bone? Let it feel good talking football? Which is good?
- 23:31Speaker 4: What's your boy feels good? No, it probably doesn't.
- 23:33Speaker 2: All right, anyway, all right, let's talk panther football. Bury
- 23:36Speaker 2: my face in a big pile of sloppy Joes.
- 23:38Speaker 4: Or we're on the same page.
- 23:40Speaker 2: On the back, local business have a sloppy Joe Bruno special.
- 23:44Speaker 2: That's what I feel like he's earned that.
- 23:47Speaker 5: Any restaurant out there I want to name their sloppy
- 23:49Speaker 5: Joe after Joe Bruno.
- 23:50Speaker 4: I think he's earned it. Sorry, go ahead of me
- 23:52Speaker 4: to cut you off.
- 23:52Speaker 5: All right, let's talk about this Panthers roster and how
- 23:56Speaker 5: it is coming along under Dan Morgan. And again I
- 23:58Speaker 5: don't want to give you all the impress and I'm
- 24:00Speaker 5: such a cheerleader in Homer that I'm acting like it's
- 24:04Speaker 5: been perfect, right, Like we can talk about, hey, what
- 24:06Speaker 5: still needs work, but it does need to be noted that.
- 24:10Speaker 5: And again it's just it's one of these lists. It
- 24:12Speaker 5: just happens to be one bone that for her first
- 24:14Speaker 5: time in a long time.
- 24:15Speaker 3: I like.
- 24:16Speaker 5: But when Devin Lloyd yesterday was named number twenty seven
- 24:19Speaker 5: player in the NFL on the players the NFL Player's
- 24:22Speaker 5: Top one hundred list, he became the fifth Panther on
- 24:26Speaker 5: this list. They went through a stretch a multiple years
- 24:30Speaker 5: bone where they didn't even have one. They went through
- 24:32Speaker 5: a stretch of seven years before this year without more
- 24:35Speaker 5: than one on the list. So pardon me if I
- 24:39Speaker 5: want to note that this this is a sign of
- 24:46Speaker 5: the roster being put together and being improved by Dan Morgan.
- 24:51Speaker 5: For the guys that are on the list now Bryce Young,
- 24:53Speaker 5: a couple of them are not Dan guys. Bryce Young
- 24:55Speaker 5: was brought in right when Dan was working under Scott Fitterer.
- 24:59Speaker 4: He's on the list.
- 25:00Speaker 5: Derek Brown also is a guy that was here before
- 25:03Speaker 5: Dan was the number one in the personnel department. But
- 25:06Speaker 5: then after that you get to Dan, you get to
- 25:10Speaker 5: you get to a Dan guy in t MAC. You
- 25:14Speaker 5: also have j C. Horn making that list. Now Horn
- 25:16Speaker 5: is old regime as well, and then you get to
- 25:20Speaker 5: Devin Lloyd on the list. But this you brought it up,
- 25:23Speaker 5: it doesn't even include Trayvon Morgan. Jalen Phillips. Well, I
- 25:26Speaker 5: think you would consider at least contenders for the top
- 25:29Speaker 5: one hundred.
- 25:30Speaker 2: It might be hard to get a guard on there,
- 25:32Speaker 2: but I think Damian Lewis is another guy. You know,
- 25:35Speaker 2: that's a tough position whether players to rank. I think
- 25:38Speaker 2: Damian Lewis, we know, when he's healthy, is as good
- 25:40Speaker 2: as anybody.
- 25:41Speaker 5: Such a good steady lineman. Didn't pff Jeff just have
- 25:43Speaker 5: him as a six best guard. Yeah, and also wonder
- 25:46Speaker 5: Mac too. When you see Devin Woyd ranked as high
- 25:49Speaker 5: as he is, that's a big gap between Devin Lloyd
- 25:53Speaker 5: and Derek Brown. And I think not only like good
- 25:57Speaker 5: on Devin Lloyd getting right that high, but I think
- 25:59Speaker 5: it also that Derek Brown's too low. If Devin Lloyd
- 26:03Speaker 5: is that far ahead of where Derek Brown is. Yeah,
- 26:06Speaker 5: I still view Derek Brown. Maybe I'm underestimating Devin Lloyd
- 26:09Speaker 5: because we hadn't seen him in a Panther uniform. Yet
- 26:11Speaker 5: I'm still viewing Derek Brown as our best football player
- 26:13Speaker 5: until further notice, right, you know what I mean? So, yes,
- 26:16Speaker 5: I think he should be higher up than he is.
- 26:19Speaker 5: But I just think, and again I'm not saying like
- 26:22Speaker 5: those five guys, I'm not saying they're all Dan Morgan.
- 26:24Speaker 5: You're seeing, You're seeing the roster come together, You're seeing
- 26:28Speaker 5: impact players. I mean, it was sad bone looking at
- 26:32Speaker 5: a top one hundred list for about a six seven
- 26:34Speaker 5: year stretch there, because you would just be looking at
- 26:38Speaker 5: literally begging for one Panther to be on the list.
- 26:40Speaker 5: If Derek Brown made it by himself, you would be
- 26:43Speaker 5: freaking happy. And I just think it's notable now that
- 26:46Speaker 5: the players think that five of their peers in process
- 26:50Speaker 5: blue are worthy of being on this list. I think
- 26:53Speaker 5: the amount of game changers on this team has dramatically
- 26:58Speaker 5: improved here recently, I really do. And I give you
- 27:01Speaker 5: the list back of the recent players on this list
- 27:04Speaker 5: that he's ahead of for context purposes today, Sewell was
- 27:08Speaker 5: thirty seven, Jared Verse thirty five, Saquon Barkley thirty four.
- 27:14Speaker 4: Go through some guys through.
- 27:15Speaker 2: Dak Prescott thirty one, Aiden Hutchinson thirty Jaywen Carter twenty nine,
- 27:20Speaker 2: Christian Gonzalez, a first eye Pro bowler last year. It's
- 27:23Speaker 2: twenty eight. Devin Boyd is ahead of all those massive
- 27:26Speaker 2: names in football. Yeah, that's that man that speaks volumes,
- 27:30Speaker 2: First Team All p John Becker, KEJ Watt forty one,
- 27:34Speaker 2: Chris Jones forty three. Our guy is higher than those
- 27:39Speaker 2: multi time Pro Bowlers and All Pro.
- 27:41Speaker 5: I can't wait to see him play on Saturday. I
- 27:43Speaker 5: cannot wait to see that speed and that processing together
- 27:46Speaker 5: in the middle of our defense.
- 27:48Speaker 4: Cannot wait. Is fun.
- 27:50Speaker 5: So let's talk about how Dan Morgan's putting this roster together.
- 27:52Speaker 5: Burn Doug BlackBerry says, So should we give this Scott
- 27:55Speaker 5: a shout out? To Scott Fitter. I mean, I guess
- 27:57Speaker 5: I got to. I'm sitting here talking about five players
- 27:59Speaker 5: on the list that he was involved in acquiring three
- 28:01Speaker 5: of them, so I do have to shout him out
- 28:04Speaker 5: for that I also think Bone, that some of the
- 28:07Speaker 5: fitterer guys are developing under this coaching staff. More, I
- 28:11Speaker 5: think they're improving under this coaching staff. Right, look at
- 28:14Speaker 5: a guy like Bryce, I mean, my god, it's night
- 28:17Speaker 5: and day between his rookie year with at cluster f
- 28:20Speaker 5: of a Frank Reich staff and what Dave Canalis has
- 28:23Speaker 5: been able to do with him. What do you think
- 28:25Speaker 5: stands out when I think stands out about Dan Morgan's
- 28:29Speaker 5: roster construction I said at earlier Bone, I think the
- 28:32Speaker 5: free agent signings. I think when he targets free agent
- 28:36Speaker 5: signings and goes and gets them, it works out.
- 28:40Speaker 4: Right.
- 28:41Speaker 5: You look at merrig you look at the two guards.
- 28:45Speaker 5: I fully expect Bone. I think Wharton's the one you
- 28:47Speaker 5: would still question and say the jury still out on.
- 28:50Speaker 5: I expect Phillips and Lloyd to be hits as well.
- 28:53Speaker 5: I also think like people are bringing up Mike Jackson
- 28:56Speaker 5: as a guy that could you could argue top one,
- 29:00Speaker 5: one hundred hell pff and their corners list has him
- 29:02Speaker 5: above JC.
- 29:03Speaker 4: At ours he might make this list.
- 29:06Speaker 5: Maybe yeah, maybe he's eight. But Mike, that Mike jack
- 29:09Speaker 5: trade where they where they traded a seventh round draft
- 29:15Speaker 5: pick linebacker that they didn't need on the roster and
- 29:18Speaker 5: got Mike Jack. That was a huge deal too. Man, Well,
- 29:20Speaker 5: that's been my thing when analyzing that draft class. Yeah,
- 29:23Speaker 5: there are is some misses and questions in that draft,
- 29:27Speaker 5: but that same year he made the Mike Jack trade
- 29:30Speaker 5: and he also signed Jalen Coker as an undrafted free agent.
- 29:33Speaker 5: So when I'm analyzing that offseason in that class, yeah,
- 29:37Speaker 5: you wish you could hit on all the picks. It's
- 29:38Speaker 5: not possible, but you have to factor in, or I do,
- 29:41Speaker 5: at least the fact that they got Mike Jack for
- 29:43Speaker 5: one of the picks and Jalen Cocher is technically a
- 29:46Speaker 5: part of that year's draft, Paul, So that's that's that
- 29:50Speaker 5: to me makes up for some of the stuff that
- 29:51Speaker 5: may be lost with the picks. I mean, the undrafted
- 29:54Speaker 5: guys he's brought into Like to your point, that's that's
- 29:58Speaker 5: not a coincidence, Ryan Fitzgerald. They'll see if Hayines King
- 30:02Speaker 5: is the next one. Ryan Fitzgerald, Cocher and I feel
- 30:06Speaker 5: like Corey Thornton, you know, I mean, he's been able
- 30:09Speaker 5: to find value in guys after the damn draft. I
- 30:12Speaker 5: think that's something Dan's done well.
- 30:14Speaker 2: We've known Dan for a long time. He really not
- 30:18Speaker 2: that he's not supposed to. But Matt, he really loves
- 30:22Speaker 2: the draft work. I remember they gave us a tour
- 30:24Speaker 2: of the building a couple of years ago because we
- 30:27Speaker 2: went to go meet Frank Reich and try to do it.
- 30:29Speaker 2: Get to know you, sit down, Mac. When was that
- 30:31Speaker 2: was that in? That was in August? Right, and Dan
- 30:34Speaker 2: Morgan was in there grinding the college tape when he
- 30:37Speaker 2: was he was not He was grinding the college tape
- 30:40Speaker 2: in August. I think that he puts a lot in there,
- 30:43Speaker 2: So I don't think it's a coincidence, Matt that he
- 30:45Speaker 2: eyes up these undrafted guys way in advance of when
- 30:49Speaker 2: we hear about them. I think I think his favorite
- 30:52Speaker 2: part is the draft stuff. No, he loves it.
- 30:54Speaker 4: He loves to see how happy he is during the draft.
- 30:56Speaker 4: He is.
- 30:57Speaker 2: Dan Morgan's a rather stowic guy. Look how happy he
- 31:00Speaker 2: is during the blootprint episodes. I think he feels like
- 31:03Speaker 2: he knows more than most people do about these players.
- 31:05Speaker 5: Interesting thing is that multiple Texters are saying his free
- 31:09Speaker 5: agent work is better than his draft work. Hollywood from
- 31:12Speaker 5: Charlotte is bringing that up. Tony says, I agree with Mac.
- 31:15Speaker 5: Free agent signings have been damn good, but I do
- 31:19Speaker 5: wonder about his draft record. Yeah, there's there's some two
- 31:24Speaker 5: B determined I mean t Mac. That Tam Mac pick
- 31:27Speaker 5: made us look like fools. I mean to be able
- 31:29Speaker 5: to get him bowling out. I thought last year's rookie
- 31:32Speaker 5: class bone. I think last year's rookie class looks pretty
- 31:36Speaker 5: damn good.
- 31:37Speaker 4: I think it's it's that.
- 31:39Speaker 5: I think it's that obviously that first one league at
- 31:43Speaker 5: he took the risk of Brooks after the ACL injury.
- 31:47Speaker 5: Trevin Wallace is now battling cherylists for his job.
- 31:50Speaker 4: JT.
- 31:51Speaker 5: Sanders has been disappointed. That's the one man. That's the
- 31:55Speaker 5: one where those guys got approve.
- 31:57Speaker 2: But maybe in the next draft, maybe you know Mitchell Evans, well,
- 32:00Speaker 2: you know.
- 32:01Speaker 4: I like mitche Levin.
- 32:01Speaker 5: I'm including that in the I'm including that in the
- 32:04Speaker 5: twenty twenty five. Like good draft, like team Mac scorting
- 32:09Speaker 5: two really good picks. Princely a lot of ability. We'll
- 32:12Speaker 5: see on that one. Etn I, Lathan Ransom. I think
- 32:17Speaker 5: in the fourth round, I still believe in that pick
- 32:20Speaker 5: Cam Jackson.
- 32:22Speaker 4: Fifth round.
- 32:23Speaker 5: I'm intrigued with the camp he's been having and yeah,
- 32:26Speaker 5: you're you said it. Mitch Levin's in the fifth round too, Like,
- 32:29Speaker 5: I think he's got another I think he's got it well.
- 32:31Speaker 5: Also he's got the brassl injury. Now that's just dud.
- 32:33Speaker 2: Jonathan Brooks of that draft, of this draft class, I
- 32:36Speaker 2: think he's got another gem there potentially in Wheatley as well.
- 32:39Speaker 2: I think Whety's another guy we look at it and say, wow,
- 32:42Speaker 2: Dan Morgan found him on day three. I think Wheatley's
- 32:45Speaker 2: going to work his way into being one of those
- 32:47Speaker 2: guys too. Eventually.
- 32:48Speaker 5: I think he's got a chance. I think he definitely
- 32:50Speaker 5: has a chance. Bone, so what do we think?
- 32:53Speaker 4: All right?
- 32:53Speaker 5: So free agents? What positioning? The guards he really nailed?
- 32:59Speaker 5: I think he's gonna I think the freelingk thing is
- 33:01Speaker 5: going to be a hit. I think offensive line. I
- 33:05Speaker 5: think I think he's done well with what positions Bone
- 33:11Speaker 5: still need work? What does he still need to work
- 33:12Speaker 5: on with this roster?
- 33:14Speaker 2: Well, I think he's got to figure out eventually. The
- 33:17Speaker 2: Rice contract thing might be the biggest thing that he's
- 33:20Speaker 2: got to do. What's Bryce's value? Evaluating Bryce Max? Some
- 33:25Speaker 2: quarterbacks are easy to evaluate of where they rank, what
- 33:29Speaker 2: their contract should be Bryce right now is not easy.
- 33:34Speaker 2: I mean Brent tell Us told us a couple of
- 33:36Speaker 2: weeks ago they're still evaluating.
- 33:38Speaker 4: So I think evaluating.
- 33:40Speaker 2: Bryce's contract is going to be maybe the thing he
- 33:43Speaker 2: Probably all these things we judge Dan Morgan on, they matter,
- 33:47Speaker 2: but ultimately it comes down to the biggest position in sports.
- 33:52Speaker 2: Do you have the guy? What'd you pay the guy?
- 33:55Speaker 2: How does Dan Morgan handle the Bryce Young contract situation
- 33:58Speaker 2: is the biggest thing He's got to deal huge.
- 34:00Speaker 4: It's huge because it could go one way or the other.
- 34:03Speaker 7: Man.
- 34:03Speaker 4: You have your guy for the future. We can win with.
- 34:05Speaker 2: If you can go sign, you overpay, you can hit
- 34:07Speaker 2: on freely, you can go sign your guard, you can
- 34:09Speaker 2: hit on Cocher undrafted. You can sign or trade for
- 34:13Speaker 2: Mike Jack. You can do all these great things. But
- 34:16Speaker 2: if the quarterback is not settled or you missfire on
- 34:20Speaker 2: a deal, that's Steve Kaimmack about Kyler Murray in Arizona.
- 34:24Speaker 2: If you the quarterback thing is the thing you're most
- 34:26Speaker 2: judged on.
- 34:27Speaker 5: Yeah, if you overpay Tua in Miami, if you overpay
- 34:30Speaker 5: Man and you can't get like it cuts into the
- 34:34Speaker 5: amount of help you can have for that quarterback because
- 34:36Speaker 5: of what you're using, and they ain't worth it. Yeah,
- 34:38Speaker 5: you run the risk as far as the roster real
- 34:41Speaker 5: quick to kind of wrap this up bone, as far
- 34:44Speaker 5: as roster ares, he still needs to work on. I
- 34:47Speaker 5: do wonder bone if he'll be he could be drafted
- 34:49Speaker 5: a first round offensive tackle again next year, depending on
- 34:52Speaker 5: how things turn out. That's uh, that could be something
- 34:56Speaker 5: that could be needed at some point in time.
- 34:59Speaker 4: Tight End. I mean, they've got nice players at tight end.
- 35:03Speaker 5: I do wonder if at some point it's time to
- 35:06Speaker 5: get aggressive in their pursuit of tight end, either with
- 35:08Speaker 5: a higher draft pick. Although they tried second day on Sanders,
- 35:12Speaker 5: there's another free agent signing at tight end.
- 35:14Speaker 2: I wonder about that tight end that's supposed to be
- 35:16Speaker 2: the best of the next draft class. Now, I guess
- 35:18Speaker 2: the first time an Oregon tight end has been thought
- 35:21Speaker 2: off since last year's draft. Yes, they got another good one.
- 35:26Speaker 2: We'll see.
- 35:26Speaker 4: On safety.
- 35:29Speaker 5: I'm intrigued by Wheatley, I'm intrigued by Ransom, But I
- 35:33Speaker 5: do wonder.
- 35:34Speaker 4: Mary's also a free agent, isn't he?
- 35:36Speaker 5: He had a three year deal, He's got a year
- 35:39Speaker 5: left I would expect them to extend him. Let's get
- 35:41Speaker 5: Fitting in here for an update, real quick think. I
- 35:43Speaker 5: think there's no doubt Dan Morgan's making progress on this roster.
- 35:47Speaker 5: I'm not on here trying to say it's been perfect,
- 35:49Speaker 5: but I don't think there's any doubt there's progress being made.
- 35:51Speaker 4: The roster's being improved.
- 35:53Speaker 5: All right, let's go to Fit Daddy, get an update
- 35:56Speaker 5: in here, Fit Daddy before Sloppy Joe talk.
- 36:00Speaker 10: Slop slave, Slavejo, slop off wait out in one morning, Dad,
- 36:13Speaker 10: I woke.
- 36:14Speaker 1: Up to see, Oh, now, this is the true statement
- 36:16Speaker 1: that comes out of this.
- 36:17Speaker 3: Sloppy Joe gotta be one of.
- 36:18Speaker 1: The more underrated sandwiches in the Sandwich Kingdom, right, Like
- 36:23Speaker 1: when you think about the pub that it gets versus
- 36:25Speaker 1: its utility, and versus how well it's often received, I
- 36:29Speaker 1: feel like Sloppy Goat Joe's aren't getting their just due.
- 36:32Speaker 1: They're thought of. Like the song that we played if
- 36:34Speaker 1: you're the podcast and didn't hear it, the Adam Sandler
- 36:36Speaker 1: Sloppy Joe song Lunch Lady Land, I feel like it
- 36:40Speaker 1: gets that kind of tag of being school food or
- 36:42Speaker 1: something that you don't look forward to. I love Sloppy Joe's.
- 36:45Speaker 3: What about you?
- 36:47Speaker 4: What about you?
- 36:48Speaker 5: Charlotte? He was actually asking his dad. They do a
- 36:50Speaker 5: show together, which is very cool. Mike Golick Junior is
- 36:55Speaker 5: giving you his take one of the most underrated sandwiches
- 36:58Speaker 5: around the slop Joe Uh And he says it gets
- 37:02Speaker 5: a bad rap. People try to talk talk about it
- 37:05Speaker 5: like it's uh school food that you can't stand. Do
- 37:09Speaker 5: you agree with that? All of Charlotte, we ask you,
- 37:13Speaker 5: do you share his love of Sloppy Joe's.
- 37:16Speaker 4: How do you feel about this? I don't know.
- 37:18Speaker 2: I mean, I guess it's a matter of semantics. How
- 37:20Speaker 2: I'm gonna word this. I wasn't gonna say underrated, underappreciated.
- 37:24Speaker 2: I think might be the word. I describe it as.
- 37:27Speaker 2: It's the interior offensive lineman of sandwiches. It's not sexy,
- 37:32Speaker 2: it's not flashy. It's like a big old offensive guard
- 37:35Speaker 2: that's in there, and you don't really notice them until
- 37:38Speaker 2: you have to. But when you do, you realize, oh, yeah,
- 37:40Speaker 2: that player's good. I don't always think about Sloppy Joe's,
- 37:43Speaker 2: but when I eat one, I say, why don't I
- 37:46Speaker 2: eat this more?
- 37:47Speaker 4: I always think that would have a Sloppy Joe. Let's
- 37:49Speaker 4: stop sloped Joe.
- 37:50Speaker 2: So it sounds like you're on his side, right, Try
- 37:52Speaker 2: to say, sloppy Joe's not singing that mudy.
- 37:54Speaker 4: It is hard. It is hard.
- 37:55Speaker 5: Fit Daddy, stop slop Josh. One of your fans out there,
- 37:59Speaker 5: Fit Daddy. Uh Bama? Is it Bama Bailey or roll
- 38:04Speaker 5: Tide Bailey? Roll Tide Bailey wants to hear more from Fiddy.
- 38:07Speaker 5: This is right in Fiddy's wheelhouse. Do you share the
- 38:11Speaker 5: affection for Sloppy Joe's. Do you think it's underappreciated or
- 38:15Speaker 5: do you disagree?
- 38:16Speaker 9: No, Sloppy Joe's are beneath me. I am too good
- 38:20Speaker 9: to eat Sloppy Joe's. Last week last week at the
- 38:25Speaker 9: at the Mall Mall Mansion, she wanted to make Sloppy
- 38:27Speaker 9: Joe's for dinner, and I told her past I would.
- 38:30Speaker 3: There's so many.
- 38:31Speaker 9: Other things I would rather eat, like a salad. You
- 38:41Speaker 9: get a salad. I'll go to Zaxby's.
- 38:43Speaker 4: You don't go to get salad?
- 38:45Speaker 3: Yes, I do, one hundred percent.
- 38:47Speaker 2: I need to see the receipts. I need video of
- 38:51Speaker 2: you driving up and saying, give me a salad.
- 38:53Speaker 5: I gotta tell you right now, that's the biggest That
- 38:57Speaker 5: is the biggest shocker. Danny Canal picking a stayed to
- 39:00Speaker 5: miss the playoff with shocking. This is this tops that
- 39:03Speaker 5: fitty ordering salad stops that. I will say this though,
- 39:06Speaker 5: fit I am actually in your cam now.
- 39:09Speaker 3: I'm not gonna fight.
- 39:10Speaker 5: I'm not gonna phrase it the same way and say
- 39:11Speaker 5: it's beneath me. I have no need for a sloppy Joe.
- 39:15Speaker 5: I have no desire to ever eat a sloppy Joe
- 39:17Speaker 5: ever again in my life. I think they're just eh.
- 39:21Speaker 5: I think there's way better sandwiches. I think there's way
- 39:24Speaker 5: better things to eat than that. So maybe I am saying, well,
- 39:27Speaker 5: maybe I'm saying its beneath me.
- 39:28Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 39:29Speaker 5: I've also still bitter because I grew up in the
- 39:31Speaker 5: north in Pennsylvania, where my mom tried to tell me
- 39:35Speaker 5: when she made Sloppy Joe's, we were eating barbecue, and
- 39:37Speaker 5: I grew up. I grew up believing that was barbecue,
- 39:40Speaker 5: and I moved down to the South Wood to Jacksonville
- 39:43Speaker 5: was the first place that I would say really had
- 39:44Speaker 5: good barbecue, and I was like, oh my god, my
- 39:47Speaker 5: mom lied to me. That sloppy Joe crap ain't barbecue.
- 39:50Speaker 5: This is barbecue. I just I will never eat unless
- 39:53Speaker 5: someone holds me down and forsteeds me. I will never
- 39:56Speaker 5: eat a sloppy Joe again in my life. I just
- 39:59Speaker 5: I don't think that that goes.
- 40:00Speaker 2: So you guys, are you guys are above your eating
- 40:03Speaker 2: habits of sloppy Joe's.
- 40:06Speaker 9: Say never in my life in my twenty nine years,
- 40:10Speaker 9: woken up and said, you know what I say, I've
- 40:12Speaker 9: seen a sloppy Joe.
- 40:13Speaker 4: I've seen your menu. You are not above a sloppy Joe.
- 40:17Speaker 4: Don't you eat?
- 40:17Speaker 5: I don't think above is the right way to say.
- 40:19Speaker 5: There's things that I don't need, some sort of meat
- 40:22Speaker 5: slop every weekend, my moss.
- 40:24Speaker 9: Yeah, a Hamburger steak, Hamburger steak and sloppy Joe's are
- 40:28Speaker 9: not comparable, I.
- 40:30Speaker 4: Think every week and you're worried about sloppy Joe's.
- 40:32Speaker 9: Yeah, Sloppy Joe's to me is the equivalent of the
- 40:34Speaker 9: that's like in c State food.
- 40:36Speaker 3: Like when I think of a sloppy Joe and I.
- 40:38Speaker 9: Had to give it to a fan bag, that's what
- 40:41Speaker 9: State fans eat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
- 40:45Speaker 4: I gotta do that. I gotta slant it a pack man.
- 40:47Speaker 3: Did I say anything wrong?
- 40:48Speaker 9: Just when they got to see a state fan honest
- 40:51Speaker 9: tractor early in the morning, maybe in the lunch hour,
- 40:54Speaker 9: eating a sloppy Joe.
- 40:55Speaker 3: You tell me to turn it all over his greased
- 40:57Speaker 3: up shirt.
- 40:58Speaker 4: You tell me to sampy Joe. Percentage is zero. You're
- 41:01Speaker 4: telling me the heels fans of the Gaston Joe's.
- 41:04Speaker 3: I don't blame them in the unc family.
- 41:06Speaker 4: What is the problem you just said? What exter?
- 41:09Speaker 5: Oh, he's coming after utar heel Sloppy Joe eaters, all right, Carolina.
- 41:15Speaker 5: Mike says, it's meat and bread.

- 41:28Speaker 2: b am I of seventy Slobby Joe's overerneath him.
- 41:32Speaker 5: I just let me say this. I am a meat lover.
- 41:34Speaker 5: I just had There's so many better ways to eat
- 41:36Speaker 5: meat than sloppy Joe's. You can say that again, like
- 41:38Speaker 5: sloppy Joe. Calm yourself down over there. It's a food
- 41:41Speaker 5: for the common folks. But there's other foods for the
- 41:44Speaker 5: common folks that I would rather eat over that. That's
- 41:46Speaker 5: a grilled cheese. That's what I'm trying to eat, a
- 41:48Speaker 5: grilled chi Like if you that was the argument, he's
- 41:51Speaker 5: acting like he's something he's not over there.
- 41:53Speaker 4: I'm giving you. I'm giving you real talk.
- 41:55Speaker 5: Yeah, that among elitist among other things too, Like I'm
- 41:59Speaker 5: just giving you real talg bone. I don't think it
- 42:01Speaker 5: tastes very good. And I think there's a lot of
- 42:04Speaker 5: common folk. Give me a hamburger, give me, give me
- 42:07Speaker 5: some chicken tenders, give me a grilled cheese, give me
- 42:10Speaker 5: a deli meat sandwich, give me a hot dog, give
- 42:12Speaker 5: me a brat, Like, there's so many. There's so not
- 42:16Speaker 5: only ones, there's so many common folk things that I
- 42:19Speaker 5: would rank ahead of the sloppy Joe is all I'm saying.
- 42:22Speaker 2: There's a lot of people that are thinking Fitty is
- 42:24Speaker 2: a complete liar. Right now, Citty getting ripped to about that.
- 42:27Speaker 2: We have Chick fil A employees are saying they've never
- 42:29Speaker 2: seen Fitty order salad.
- 42:30Speaker 3: I would my order history in the next break.
- 42:34Speaker 4: You're not just getting a salad, though, are you.
- 42:36Speaker 3: I usually get a salad with a side of fries.
- 42:41Speaker 4: That makes sense, and keep going. I don't think you're
- 42:44Speaker 4: done yet, sir.

- 42:54Speaker 5: maybe she just took it out of the can. She
- 42:55Speaker 5: was already lying to me and tell me it was barbecue.
- 42:58Speaker 5: I just I don't know, give me a hamburger, like
- 43:01Speaker 5: if you're the man, which guy, if you're gonna use
- 43:04Speaker 5: if you're gonna use ground beef, like, make a hamburger.
- 43:08Speaker 3: That was my argument.
- 43:09Speaker 9: I don't know.
- 43:09Speaker 4: I don't get it. What are we doing. We're wasting
- 43:11Speaker 4: ground beef exactly.
- 43:13Speaker 3: Just fry me up a hamburger. Damn it. I'm not
- 43:16Speaker 3: asking for too much.
- 43:17Speaker 2: What's the text you? Why can't you make your own hamburger?
- 43:20Speaker 2: You are very you are very uh pompous during this

- 43:39Speaker 5: and includes lettuce.
- 43:40Speaker 2: He calls that a salad. Someone said he eats taco salads.
- 43:43Speaker 2: That doesn't count as an actual salad. I love a
- 43:46Speaker 2: taco salad.
- 43:47Speaker 5: Panther cliffs got your backbone, says can't remember the last
- 43:50Speaker 5: time he had a sloppy Joe, but that bleep is busting.

- 44:38Speaker 5: I just I'm never I'm not going to seek out
- 44:40Speaker 5: a sloppy Joe ever in my entire life, is what
- 44:43Speaker 5: I'm trying to say. Jonathan says, how are there a
- 44:46Speaker 5: couple of fat asses with terrible diets on here slandering
- 44:49Speaker 5: the great Sloppy Joe?
- 44:53Speaker 4: I have a I have a cold, sir. As we
- 44:55Speaker 4: go to break someone says, pimento cheese on swappy Joe.
- 44:58Speaker 4: That's interesting, Permento cheese doesn't make everything better.
- 45:00Speaker 2: As we go to break back, I asked you a
- 45:02Speaker 2: question about sloppy Joe's who was Joe?
- 45:07Speaker 4: Who's it named after?
