• 1:34
  Speaker 1: West Virginia falls seventeen to ten to the Bobcats of
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: Ohio University. A lot to talk about. It means a
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: lot for a bunch of different reasons, obviously, So obviously
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: let's start this thing off with Hoppy's obvious observations.
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: So hold on, hold on, what can I go first?
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Today? I think I'll start with how can I go first? There?
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: You need to go first?
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: Ye?
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: Yes you may, Yes you may.
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: When we do spreads on stats, and we'll do this
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: coming up, we normally go and take a look back
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: at what we said in the preview episode. I'll see
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: what we got right, what we got wrong. So I
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: thought we should begin that show, or I should begin
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: that show with a look back to Thursday's episode, and
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: I will first offer my sincere apologies to mister Kerschival
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: to my right.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: Sincere.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: We were on opposite ends of the spectrum in terms
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: of how this game might play out. I felt really
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: good about West Virginia's position. You were on the opposite side,
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: and as it turns out, you were right to be worried.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: You were right to be worried about West Virginia's ability
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: to go in and get a win. And I said
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: on Thursday, if I was wrong, I would come in
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: and apologize to you. So I apologize you were right,
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: I was wrong.
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: I'll tell you what. Come here, let'shug it out.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: No, we're not gonna hug it out.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: Set out make them uncomfortable. Let's good.
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: Well, hey, you know what, I'm really glad anyway, So
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: thank you for allowing me to go first. Now you
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: can do your obvious observations. But you were right on
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: You were right to be worried about a game, and
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: it was it was. It came to fruition.
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: When Bobby Bowden's Florida State beat West Virginia. This first
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: comment was I take no joy, he said, I want now.
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: I wanted to win the game, but I take no
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: joy in beating West Virginia. I take no joy, Brad
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: and being right, and by the way, the fact that
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: I was not alone in that. If you were a
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: neutral observer and you looked at this game, you saw
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: it was two and a half, three and a half points.
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: So people who had no vested interest saw this as hey,
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: this is a chance for home dog to get a
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: win against an untested team by a program. Granted it's Mac,
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: but a program has thirty one years wins over the
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: last three years, So it was it was not that
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: tough of a prediction.
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: If you're a neutral observer, fair.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: Fair, Yeah, others share that, but you you called it.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: You took your shot and called it okay, So congratulations,
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: oh thank you.
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: Take no joy in that. But guys were not neutral observers.
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: Mountain their nation not neutral observers. As I go into
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: obvious observations, So you come away from this game, and
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: we'll talk about this a lot, supremely disappointed, and not
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: only the loss, but how you played, and we'll get
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: deeply into that, and Brad has spreaddum stats on that.
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: But if you were thinking, when you were thinking about guys,
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: number of wins for this team, whether it was four
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: or five, six, seven, eight, you had this as a win, correct,
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: This was one you had as a win. Yes, No
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: matter how many wins you thought they were going to have,
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: this was one of them.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: So then you're thinking, if you don't win this, where
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: are the wins. If you can't win this game, where
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: do the wins come? So I think on Mountaineer Nation
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: there's a whole recalibration going on. Again, prisoner of the moment.
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: You're allowed to get better, Brad, and we'll talk about that.
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: But prisoner of the moment, you are recalibrating as to
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: what kind of season you may have.
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: Fair, yes, okay.
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: Second point is that the defense played well enough to win.
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: I agree, defense played well enough to win. Gave up
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: seventeen points, created three.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: Turnovers, none in the second half. What's that right, No
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: points in the second half.
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: No points, no points in the second half.
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: So the defense played well enough to win. If before
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: the game you said defense is going to cause three
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: turnovers and Gonn hold his seventeen points to go, okay, okay,
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: that's fine and good. We're in good shape. So and
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: the defense was on the field, by the way, all day,
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: all day, time of possession.
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: I haven't looked at that. But the offense was terrible.
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: Was terrible.
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: You got that after the Jeheim White run, after the
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: completion long completion and a run by touchdown run by
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: Jaheim and Jeem goes out with the injury. The offense
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: was anemic, did nothing, three turnovers in the third quarter.
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: You get no points, Tony, I'm not even sure if
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: you got a first down.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: Now you went three and out three times in a row.
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: Three and out three times in a row after three turnovers.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: Unbelievable.
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: So the offense was just awful. Was just awful.
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: Now, you know, the blame typically falls to the quarterback,
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: but in fairness, when you can't run, and after Jaheem
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: went out, I think he had thirty yards rushing.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: The rest of the game.
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: If you can't run, that puts tremendous pressure on the quarterback,
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: and they got to him. The offensive line did not
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: do a very effective job, and I wanted to see
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: Brad's grades a very effective job run blocking or pass blocking,
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: so that was a major factor. So it just it
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: was just a I don't think I've seen three more
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: disappointing offensive quarters in a long time.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: That was really, really bad.
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: And even late in the game, I kept thinking, Okay,
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: wait a minute, you're gonna you get so many chances. Okay,
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: you'll get a touchdown to her, maybe overtime, and it
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: just it just never happened, never even came really close
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: to happening. So again, Brad will say, and it's accurate,
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: you're allowed to get better, but you got a lot
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: of getting better to do very quickly.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: There's all fair observations on your part, and obvious too.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: They're obvious, but they're all so fair.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: I'll begin with some cliches.
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: Hey, wait a minute, that's my territory.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: Let's first put away now, probably forever. The cliche that
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: you get better from week one to week two, probably done.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: You want to start getting You want to use the
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: one called you get worse from week one to week two.
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: No, I'm just I think that's probably we weren't already
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: done with that. I think let's just go ahead and
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: that's that one anymore. The second one is, and probably
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: this is if you want to try and have a
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: little positive cheer here on Sunday today after the game,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: which is hard to find after a loss like that,
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: you say, it's never as good as it looks. It's
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: never as bad.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: As I've had that come through mind. You've said that
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: a couple of times, had that run through my head
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: today as a matter of fact.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: So that's probably where you have to land with this.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: It was not as good as it looked at Robert Morris,
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: it's probably not as bad as it looked yesterday, although
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: prisoner of the moment, that's hard to get passed with.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: Also the added question mark around Jaheem White's health that
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: was another part of this game. Guys, that certainly had
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: changed the game. I know you weren't running up and
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: down the field with Jaheim in there, but the fact
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: that he goes out, and we have talked for months
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: now about the lack of depth a running back and
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: playmaking ability, and to lose him, who knows what's next.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: But if that's for an extended amount of time, that's
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: really concerning moving forward on that part of it. So
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: I've got a bunch of numbers that the analysis will
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: go into, a bunch of the areas Hoppy you talked about,
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: but just overall share everybody's sentiments. And again, based on
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: my angle of this game on Thursday, I really did
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: think West Virginia would go in and find a way
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: to win that game, even if it was ugly, hop
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: as bad as you were playing, as much as you
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: were struggling to move the ball offensively, I did think
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: the defense, especially in the second half, gave you a
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: chance to win. We got the ball back three times
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: on the three picks and you just said it. You
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: go three nine plays minus seven yards after getting the interceptions,
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: that's the part where you're just scratching your head. After
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: the first one you went, okay, here you go. Then
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: you got the second one, You're like, all right, you're
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: gonna score now here to hear you, and you got
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: the thirty's like, well, my god, you're going to certainly
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: cash in on this one. And to not be able
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: to do that. You got the interceptions you thought you'd
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: get from Parker Navarro and you just couldn't cash it in.
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: That was particularly frustrating.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it certainly was. So I think we all went
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: into this thing in uncharted territory because it's unprecedented that
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: West Virginia has as many new players as they do
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: on the roster. Eighty one was the official number, and
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: so the question was how long would it take for
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: them to gel? He said, well, let's give it some time.
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: It's great to get it open against Robert Morris, you
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: get your you get your feet wet, and then you're
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: gonna get a better challenge coming up here against Ohio University.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: But then, like after watching it, you also have some
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: questions like that also were in the back of the
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: mind this whole thing, Like, if it was just this
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: easy to just go get a bunch of new players
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: and put them all together and expect that you're going
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: to look like really super sharp right off the bat,
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: probably not realistic. I think West Virginia has the most
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: new players of any program in the country. And so
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: that was a step back. And now these coaches are
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: really going to have to coach because there are some
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: fundamental issues that they are going to have to mask
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: going forward to have chances to win games. So now
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: and going into the pit game and going forward, now
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: they really have to look at it and go, Okay,
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: now we've got to smoke and mirror some things here,
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: because obviously that offensive line is nowhere near where it
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: needs to be one and two. As we all know,
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: when we know Rich Rodriguez's system, Rich flourishes when he
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: has quarterbacks that make big plays. Just like wherever he's been,
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: he's got to have a guy that can make something
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: out of nothing, and that certainly did not happen yesterday.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: And so now they've got to go back and go, Okay,
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: how are we going to do this thing? I think
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: the defense over the long haul can be a solid unit,
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: but offensively there are a lot of things where they
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: need to figure some stuff.
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: We well, we talked a couple of weeks ago about
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: the inexperience of this offensive line. I went through the
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: starts returning from last year. I mean that again, talk
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: about not plowing new ground. The obvious concern into this
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: season was that offensive line and its lack of experience.
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: Never mind it's lack of playing together that has shown
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: up now the question marks around Jahim and your backup
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: running backs. Then your ability if you're not going to
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: be able to run it for a program that wants
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: to run it, that's just a basic problem, right, But
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: then you move to the second problem that if you're
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: not going to be ultra accurate on your passing and
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: get the ball to then what becomes your best playmakers
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: and a Jaden Bray and Cam Vaughn, who I think
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: are both really good, you better find a way to
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: complete some passes. And yesterday you didn't do that at
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: a high clip, and you didn't do it throwing it
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: down the field either. There was no no ability to
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: hit the ball deep except that one at the end
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: of the game, which I still still not sure they
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: got that right. I thought that might have been a
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: catch by Cam Vaughan. But you've got to be able
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: to get the ball in those guys' hands, and you
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: just didn't do a good job of that yesterday.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: Either man injury wise, on the offensive side, quietly everyone's
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: talking about Jahem White and while they should. I mean,
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: Jayden Bray went out with an injury and like his
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: status is an unknown right now, and he's a guy
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: that also could be very very productive going for he
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: got knocked out there early and did not return. So yeah,
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: there was there were several guys and Tony.
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: We came away from that Robert Morris game and we
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: kept saying opponent to justice. That's true, but West Virginia
• 12:46
  Speaker 4: did look pretty good on the second half against Robert Morris.
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: Robert Morris is not good. I mean they got Youngstown
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: State boat raced him. Youngstown State was up fifty six
• 12:56
  Speaker 4: to three late in that game before Robert Morris got
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: a couple of eight touch down So that kind of
• 13:01
  Speaker 4: puts that in perspective as well.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, someone pointed out to me last week,
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: they said, you know, you guys were talking on the
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: podcast that Jehem White was running hard and was getting
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: additional yards off of contact. He said, here's my concern, you.
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: Weren't downfield before you were getting hit. Yeah, no question,
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: that's the rhip side of that.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, correct. But he was getting hit initially and then
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: he was surging through and going forward. So obviously a
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: lot to work. So that becomes our obviously segment, Hoppy,
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: you've you've started obviously a whole thing. Obviously we know
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: a lot of that stuff. All right, Spreads on stats
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: is coming up. The three guys before the game is
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: brought to us by Jan Dill's Attorneys at Law. They

• 15:26
  Speaker 1: but that's that's that's a whole another thing. We'll just
• 15:29

• 16:30
  Speaker 1: on Sunday. Jumping in at this point did you have
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: any ah ha moments when you dug in.
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: Well, let's just let's just start in here. No no
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: rhyme or reason to where I'm going, but I'm gonna
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna start with where the scouting report for this
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: game started. That's with Parker Navarro OUs quarterback. Again, every
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: person that talked about this game mentioned his ability to scramble,
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: and that was going to be a concern for West Virginia.
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: So you look at what Navarro did you yesterday. Guys.
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: He had seventy eight percent of Ohio U's total yards
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: excuse me, seventy eight percent of their total yards playmaker difference.
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: So that was a guy, the one guy on that
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: team you couldn't let beat you and had to try
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: and see if someone else could do it. They didn't
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: need to, because Navarro carried the day there. And here's
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: what got you eight scrambles. He's credited with eight quarterback
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: scrambles for eighty three yards.
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: Six of those eight resulted in first downs.
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: There you go.
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: He had five mistackles that he forced on those and
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: they were in big moments. It seemed like every time
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: he ran it was in a big moment and that's
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: evidenced by those six of those eight scrambles turned into
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: first downs, So you could probably just stop right there.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: I mean, that was likely the difference in this game
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: from an offensive standpoint, especially in the first half when
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: they got that lead. It was almost their entire running game,
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: his ability to scramble. How about these numbers. You take
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: those scramble yards away, and they had ninety five yards
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: rushing on forty carries, two point four yards per carry.
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: So we said going in in the scouting report, that
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: was a rebuilt ohiou offensive line, four or five new starters.
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: Thought it might be advantaged for West Virginia's defense. It was,
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: I mean, West Forray's defense was there other than that
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: one thing, and that was a big other because it
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: cost you the game. One of the other things we
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: mentioned that came to fruition on Thursday, I said there
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: was going to be an interception. Went on record with
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: my first official prediction from the stats. He said that
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: he said there was going to be an interception. He
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: had shown that his big time throw numbers versus turnover
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: worthy plays that we recounted for you last Thursday's episode
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: came to fruition. He gave you three of them. That's
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: the part, guys, when you go back at this one, Ohio,
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: you gets to win. Full credit to them, man, they
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: tried to give you that game. They tried everything possible
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: to hand you that game on a silver platter. I
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: went back on wvustats dot com. West Virginia is twenty
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: three and two over its last twenty five games when
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: it has three picks in a game twenty three and
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: two that dates all the way back to two thousand
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: and three. Wow, So you talk about just an absolute outlier.
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: You'd not only win the turnover battle, but you get
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: three interceptions from a guy you thought was susceptible to
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: throw him and he did, and you couldn't go nine
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: plays minus seven yards after the eye intent.
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: Bred I forget exactly where they were they were, but
• 19:21
  Speaker 4: one of them was in near midfield right.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: Oh one was inside territory.
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: Got zero.
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: I mean absolutely an.
• 19:28
  Speaker 4: It's not like you got it on the four and
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: you couldn't you couldn't move. Not only did you not score,
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: you couldn't move and didn't move the ball at all.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: Your best chance to score might have been the Ben
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: Cutter in interception. Oh yeah, he might have been able
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: to get to the sideline and go all the way
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: had an offensive lineman trip him up. Like that's where
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: we're at, right, that's where you were at in that game.
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: Like Cutter's got a score. Kind of makes this thing tie.
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: Best offensive weapon Ben Cutter.
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: We also talked about pressure. Thought you could probably get
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: some pressure on Park Navarro. He handled it pretty well
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: from a completion percentage, better than he's been in his
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: whole career, nine to thirteen for one thirty seven under pressure.
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: But two of his picks came when you got pressure
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: on him. So it's just again, you did what you
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: had to do. From that perspective, you got pressure on him,
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: forced him into scrambling, but you couldn't contain. It was
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: pressure and contained, and you couldn't get the contained part
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: of it. Maybe the biggest surprise of the day to
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: me was how much OU's defense struggled versus Rutgers and
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: then did not struggle against West Virginia. I know a
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: lot of that was a result of what West Virginia
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: didn't do, But we talked about the Bobcats coverage grade
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: coming into this game after one game on the season
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: against small sample size but it was the second worst
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: in the entire country. After game one, they had a
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: forty one grade against Rutgers. In coverage against West Virginia
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: that jumped all the way to a sixty eight and
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: a half grade, so a massive improvement there. Nico held
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: a just fifty eight percent completion rate one week after
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: a career high and hoppy. You're right, Robert Morris just
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: isn't good. I get it, but just fifty eight percent
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: completely when there were some windows to throw in that
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: they just didn't hit. That certainly killed you without an
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: ability to run it. You weren't throwing the ball effectively
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: enough either, and you probably should have been able to
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: against the SOU defense. OHU tackling grade also one of
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: the worst in the country. After game one, it was
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: a fifty four grade against Rutgers, jumped all the way
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: to a seventy one point seven against West Virginia. Instead,
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: it was West Virginia's defense that had the tackling issue. Again,
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: that didn't cost you the game, but if you get
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: Parker Navarro down a couple times, that would have helped
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: fourteen mistackles forced by OU runners in that game, which
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: will be MiG zach Ally crazy, I realize here's another
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: telling stat guys, Ohio, you ran forty nine percent of
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: its plays in West Virginia territory, oh half of its plays.
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: West Virginia ran just twenty seven percent of its plays
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: in OU territory. That was a bigger gap in the
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: first half. It was like forty three percent to five
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: percent in the first half. When that game was ultimately decided,
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: both teams really struggled offensively. You look at offensive success
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: rate when you get fifty percent of your yards on
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: first down, seventy percent by second down, and if you
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: convert a first down on third or fourth that contributes
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: to your success rate. OU was just thirty three percent
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: success rate. So offensively again shows by the seventeen points
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: you hold teams to seventeen you think you're gonna win
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: under Rich's program, right, that should be a win. You
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: hold a team to thirty three percent success rate, you'll
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: probably win that game. They just outside of Navarro's scrambling.
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: That's really the only thing that hurts you. West Virginia
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: was even worse though, just twenty seven percent success rate.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: West Virginia's run blocking grade. Because I figured you were
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: going to ask me about this. It's worst regular season
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: grade since pitt in the opening game of twenty twenty
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: two and the fourth lowest run blocking grade in the
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: last eleven seasons.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: Not surprised.
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: Through two games, West Virginia's fifteenth out of sixteen teams
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: in the Big twelve and run blow So just really struggled.
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: Couldn't get anything going left in particular, just nine carries
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: for thirteen yards when trying to run it left. What
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: else you want to know? That's those are the low lights.
• 23:16
  Speaker 4: Third down to it seemed like that you were in
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: third and long a ton Tony. It felt like, I
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: don't know what the numbers were, but you were two
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: of thirteenth for third down. But you were just always
• 23:26
  Speaker 4: in a way you finished. You finished two of thirteen
• 23:29
  Speaker 4: on third down.
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, aving they went they went five or fourteen on third,
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: one of three on three on fourth. So they were
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: six of seventeen on conversion downs to West Virginia was
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: two out of fourteen.
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: And here's here's more behind those numbers as to why
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: the game ends seventeen ten. Not only are you two
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: of thirteen, which is self explanatory, you averaged seven point
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: three yards per third down. So again, this offense over
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: time is that you're not built to be in third
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: and seven when you want to do it rich wants
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: to do. But you only averaged three and a half
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: yards per play on third down. You were one of
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: six throwing the ball on third down two. That's just
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: not even remotely good enough.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: And it was an absolute master class on limiting the
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: possessions they had the ball. I mean, you saw they
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: got away probably with at least two delay of games
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: that they didn't throw the flag own. But anyway, they
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: had the ball for forty minutes and fifteen seconds to
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: West Virginia's nineteen forty five. They two for won them
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: in time of possession. But how do you beat a
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: team that wants to go fast? Don't give them the ball, right.
• 24:33
  Speaker 4: And that was their plan obviously, I mean that was
• 24:35
  Speaker 4: part of their plan and that worked. That worked because
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: they had time of possession in West Virginia had to
• 24:39
  Speaker 4: three it out then they would keep the ball for
• 24:40
  Speaker 4: a while. But you did have but you did have opportunities.
• 24:45
  Speaker 4: You had the ball a lot. You just didn't make
• 24:47
  Speaker 4: the most of it when you had the ball.
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's right. I mean again, all credit
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: to ill Hiu because they crafted the plan as they
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: needed to, and yes, holding it in limited especially in
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: the first half. The time of possessions more stark in
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: the half twenty one to fifty five for Ohio, you
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: just eight minutes five seconds for West Virginia. And so, guys,
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: we know this. The tempo offense is great when it's
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: working and devastating when it's working if it's not and
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: you're not having If you're getting those success rate numbers
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: on offense and you're going fast, that's a problem. It's
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: going to lead to a twenty two to eight advantage
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: in time of possession. But you're right, hop and I
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: think that's ultimately what's the most frustrating about this game is,
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: with all the credit to Ohio, you you still handle them, right,
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: You still handle them for the most part, But just
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: big plays by Navarro on the scrambles. You couldn't you
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: couldn't take advantage of those interceptions and punch it in
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: and you just didn't do enough offensively to get you
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: one more score that may have changed that game.
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: Special teams, couple of penalties on some kick returns, yeah,
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: don't help you at all.
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: But just some untimely penalties overall too, wasn't there? Yes,
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: just in some massive moments and eight.
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: Penalties for eighty five yards again to an offense that
• 26:00
  Speaker 4: could move the ball. You know, now not all those
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: were offensive penalties to understand, but but that's just I mean.
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: You had a laid head on a quarterback, which costs you.
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: I didn't like that call.
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: I didn't like that call either. He had defensive holding
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: on the third down, which ultimately turned into a touchdown
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: drive for Ohio.
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: You you just so.
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: Penalties that you didn't need, but they were really costly
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: in big, big moments where you got a lot of those.
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: So now again we like to talk about the officials,
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: and the officials certainly didn't. Let me be clear, the
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: officials had did not cost you the game. You did
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: it to yourself, accordit to Ohio University. But how do
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: you call a roughing the passer when you push the
• 26:38
  Speaker 4: quarterback and he doesn't fall down.
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's the new emphasis. It's a new emphasis this year.
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: It is.
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: So you think that's what it was.
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: Yes, we had an official at practice last week. Tell me,
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: he goes, wait to you. That's exactly what he said
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: to me, he goes, wait, do you see a roughing
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: the passer called when the quarterback touch but doesn't get
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: knocked down. Told me that last week.
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: Oh there it is.
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: Okay, okay, that was our boy.
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: Tell me that's tough too, especially on a quarterback that's
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: so slippery. What are you supposed to do there? You
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: hold up and he takes off and slips outside on you.
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: You know, guys, the offensive line concerns, as I said earlier,
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: have been there. I'm not plowing new ground right there,
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: but I think they really showed themselves. Before you got
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: to the end of the game. You could see there
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: were problems. There were two third down and twos tony
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: early in that game, and WVU went with perimeter plays
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: right the one pitch to Jahim White you tried to
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: get around the outside, and the other you called a
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: pass play and had Nico roll to his right and
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: try and throw. And right there, if you needed another
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: indication that West Virginia didn't trust where it was third
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: in just two from a Rich Rodriguez offense and you're
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: not just lining up smacking them right in the face.
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: I think that probably jumped to you and said, okay,
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: these guys aren't aren't comfortable with what the offensive line
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: is able to do up front. And again it's it's
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: doubly maddening in that that's an OU group that lost
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: their entire front seven. So that's not just a West
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: Virginia team that's rebuilt. That's an OU defense up front
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: that's totally rebuilt when West Virginia had to try and
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: beat it on the perimeter rather than big buoying it
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: up front. So I would assume that's that's a real
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: concern for this group moving forward.
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no question about it. And now you got to
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: figure some things out. Now you got to figure some things.
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: I just got you know, it's like anything else. You think.
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: There was concern before the season started. Rich had said
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: on multiplication, not sure if we're strong enough in the
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: offensive line. The bad news is you can't get stronger
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: when the season starts, right. That's not for now, that's
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: for January the August, and that's a concern. So that
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: you've got to go, Okay, what are our chance is
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: that more tight ends into the formations to give yourself
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: an extra blocker. Now any thing and everything is open
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: for grabs. And they've been here before. They've done it before.
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: I talked to Rich the other day and he had
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: a situation when he was at Ole Miss with an
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: offensive line that just wasn't going to be good enough.
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: And here he is in the SEC and the at
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: Ole Miss he had starting three true freshmen, a red
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: shirt freshman and a junior. Not real good in that league. Right,
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: So you just got to you gotta be creative.
• 29:32
  Speaker 4: That's a challenge because if defenses can stop the West
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: Virginia run without doing anything special, just using the guys
• 29:41
  Speaker 4: up front, what does that mean? There's more guys back
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: makes it even harder to pass, right.
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: I mean that.
• 29:46
  Speaker 4: So it's one thing leads to another, leads to another,
• 29:50
  Speaker 4: and you got got serious problems.
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: So this is one of those again, as I always say,
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: you're allowed to get better, and Rich's teams get better.
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: So this is a this is an all time exam
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: of how much better can you get? While at the
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: same time the competition is getting a lot better starting
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: with Pitt, Right, it goes that's the challenge. Now, now
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: you're into big boy football here, and that gets really hard.
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: And the offensive line challenges are Rich and play anybody
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: no backups on the offensive line played yesterday. That's starting
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: five went the whole game. So that also tells you
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: if you have guys up front that are struggling a
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: little bit and you're not bringing people in behind him.
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: There's not a lot of confidence apparently in that second
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: group yet either. So it's just that's a real question
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: is how quickly can that group get better? Can it
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: get better? How much better while also facing much better
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: competition coming in the rest of the season.
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: And do you have Jaheim White.
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: That was a horrible situation.
• 30:44
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's a lower body and you worry about that.
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: He had to be helped off the field, and you
• 30:48
  Speaker 4: don't want to speculate, but who we'll get into that.
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: You guys an info?
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I got to say double penalty.
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: Of course, he got horse collared, face masked and rolled
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: to all on the same play. Yes, say it again.
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: He got horse collared, face masked and roll tackled on
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: the same play. Well, that's that's a that's a bad
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: situation right there.
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: Man.
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: I have no idea what it's going to turn out
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: to be, but that that is, that's a that's a wow.
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: Thats wow, that's an absolute on one tackler on that
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: same on one play inflicted that damage. You want to
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: see why the horse caller is illegal?
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, right there, and the roll tackle three guys before
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: the game is brought to us by Tudor's Biscuit World.
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: We not only tell you to eat them, we actually
• 31:37

• 32:06
  Speaker 1: Biscuit World today, treat yourself to some cozy comfort food.
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: Can I find one little nugget of bright spot in
• 32:14
  Speaker 4: this in the offense? Just one little as you look
• 32:17
  Speaker 4: at the sky and you see maybe just a little
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: bright light in the distance. I know he only had
• 32:22
  Speaker 4: two catches and one was ruled not a catch. Cam
• 32:24
  Speaker 4: Vaughan's a player m he's a guy.
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: I mean, Vaughn was open a lot in the game.
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: Was he he was open a lot in the game.
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: Get him the ball, Get him the.
• 32:33
  Speaker 4: Ball, and he's to me early analysis, He's something West
• 32:39
  Speaker 4: Virginia hasn't had for several years.
• 32:41
  Speaker 3: Now, Brad, that is a guy that can go get
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: the ball.
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: That first catch he made and contested because the defender
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: was there, but he went up and again this should
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: be a basic thing, but it's not. He just went
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: up and didn't wait for the ball to get to
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: his hands. He just went and picked that thing out
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: of the air. Yeah, he's again you're going to have
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: to get to the ball. You have got to be
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: more accurate and get him the football and let him
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: make plays.
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: I mean the pass that he caught that was ruled
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: out of bounds, which was that was a fifty to fifty.
• 33:11
  Speaker 4: He had to turn, twist his body around, catch it
• 33:15
  Speaker 4: low to the ground, which is hard while falling down
• 33:18
  Speaker 4: while keeping trying to keep his feet in bounced. That
• 33:20
  Speaker 4: was a tremendous catch. Yep, that was ruled incomplete, but
• 33:24
  Speaker 4: a great catch.
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no question about that. So again that's something else
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: that they've got to look at now and say, okay.
• 33:32
  Speaker 4: Get him the ball. Get him the ball. He's id go,
• 33:34
  Speaker 4: get him the ball. M Hopefully jaydan Bray is not
• 33:39
  Speaker 4: too badly hurt.
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: No idea. The loss means that game day will not
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: be coming here. ESPN had given West Virginia the wink wink,
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: we're coming just when missed opportunity. So you can't make
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: that one publicity wise, you can't make that one up. No,
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: So now you just got to go ahead and say, okay, fine,
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: let's just get better. Let's take care of business. And
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: as they say, when two old rivals get together, you
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: can throw the record books out the window. Have you
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: ever heard that? Hoppy? You can?
• 34:10
  Speaker 4: But you got you have to improve a lot for
• 34:13
  Speaker 4: this game. I mean, we'll talk more about that later
• 34:15
  Speaker 4: this week. But you got to You got a lot
• 34:17
  Speaker 4: of ground to make up here, guys. Yeah, I mean,
• 34:18
  Speaker 4: you got a lot of work to do. You gotta
• 34:21
  Speaker 4: you gotta figure some things out.
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: Well. The crowd will do its part. We know that
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: they will be ready to go and people will be enthused.
• 34:29

  Speaker 4: Army was very army like in the second half. I
• 36:27
  Speaker 4: was watching nicking in the second half. What was a
• 36:29
  Speaker 4: braand with four minutes.
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: To go, well, Case State only had like two possessions
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: in the second half.
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, touched it twice twice second half.
• 36:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that is absolute water torture. And Army won the
• 36:41
  Speaker 4: game even though they got a bad call. Wait in

• 36:48
  Speaker 4: receiver caught the ball in Army territory, caught it, took
• 36:53
  Speaker 4: two steps, safety came up, dislodged the ball. Army recovered
• 36:57
  Speaker 4: incomplete and during the review they had an official on Mike.

• 44:58
  Speaker 1: I think my grandson LC's gonna become really yeah, Luca's
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: gonna be kind of probably gonna try. I think that
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: lemon is going to get him. I think he'll be
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: kind of obsessed with the lemon. I like that a lot.
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: By the way, let's jump into these things. Now, we
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: had five hundred and twenty two corrections. I didn't. I
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: quickly read a text last show that said Rich got
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: beat by Apple Aachian State. That someone Rich never got
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: beat by Apple Achian State. Some guys said, I was
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: celebrating when Rich got beat by Apple Achian State. Now
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: I'm cheering for him. Rich never lost Apple. I started. Yeah,
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: five hundred and twenty one people corrected.
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: This said that on the last show.
• 45:36
  Speaker 4: I've read a text. Oh we we didn't catch it.
• 45:40
  Speaker 4: We should have caught it. But I mean, we don't
• 45:41
  Speaker 4: know his every game he's played.
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: So Jason who signs bewildered and bummed in Iowa. I'm
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: sitting here feeling stumped. As you all said, last week
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: was a kind of get to know you game. Not
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: much I can say about this week's offense. Underwhelming defense
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: got it going in this second half, gave us a chance.
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: No one looked like they could out athlete the Bobcats.
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: They handle us plain and simple. Every year I start
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: a season believing maybe it's too much to ask with
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: any one. New players take me off the ledge. As
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: a Morgantown native aged now fifty three years, I feel
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: like I've seen this film before. Well a lot of
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: what we just said. You can get better. They will
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: get better. Exactly what their max is I better. I'm
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: not gonna you know, who knows what it's going to be.
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: But hang, hang, hang in there, Texter, why is the
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: play on jahem not an ejection? Face mask, horse collar?
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: Same tackle should be automatic? If you ask me, that's
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: why those two ways of tackling have big penalties because
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: they cause injuries. Look what happened, Texter, yikes. Seems like
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: the old West Virginia penalty galore. Poor tackling, offensive line
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: huge weakness. We knew Navarro was aloof elusive, but poor
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: tackling and Navarro's athleticism was evident. Really disappointing. You guys,
• 47:12
  Speaker 1: keep up your good cheer. Signed by Rich Satellite Beach, Florida.
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: Brad Please apologize to Hoppy for dismissing his obvious observations. Well,
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: I mean you started the thing.
• 47:23
  Speaker 3: With that done right at the top of the show.
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: Well done, Hey guys pop from Saint Mary's. If this
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: was a lack of talent, I could understand, But these
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: guys are not tough. Ohio pushed them all over the field.
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: No hard edge signed. Next, Texter signs well adjusted in
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: West Milford. I miss the days we're losing felt like
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: an insult. It's become so frequent. I've got no choice
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: to become self actualized. I believe they will improve as
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: the year goes on. Rich will pull out, pull us
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: out of this skid toward irrelevance. But we obviously have
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: a few more lumps coming this season. Please Lord, beat
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: pit it. Texter. You don't have to read this, but
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: is there an actual chance we can turn this around
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: in a couple of years? Who can we go get
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: to make it better? Just looking for some hope for
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: the future.
• 48:12
  Speaker 4: You know, Tonyz and we have explained adnawledge. You remember
• 48:16
  Speaker 4: talk to Adnausea and how bad it was against Ou.
• 48:20
  Speaker 4: But you are allowed to get better. I'm not talking
• 48:22
  Speaker 4: about week three or Brad or even week six. But
• 48:25
  Speaker 4: you don't hire a coach. You don't fire a coach
• 48:27
  Speaker 4: after after two after two games. Okay, so he needs time.
• 48:31
  Speaker 4: He needs time, and I know that timeline's gotten shorter.
• 48:36
  Speaker 4: But is it you know, is it two years? Is
• 48:38
  Speaker 4: it three years?
• 48:39
  Speaker 3: Is it one year? But you do have to have
• 48:40
  Speaker 3: some patience.
• 48:41
  Speaker 4: You can you can be disappointed and should be with
• 48:44
  Speaker 4: what happening is dou but still have some patience about
• 48:47
  Speaker 4: what's going to happen in the future.
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah, and remember just go back to the first
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: go round with rich That first year was rough guys
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: three and eight, and it looked bad at times. I
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: think we forget the loss to Temple. Yeah, I remember
• 48:59
  Speaker 2: how bad Temple was as a program at that point,
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: and you lost off. I'm not being second. That was
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: a home game for West Virginia. You lost a Temple
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: and then what was it, five seasons later, you're on
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: the brink of a national championship. So if you want
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: the positive spin hop, I agree with you.
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: It was. It was bad.
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: Just say it's a bad loss, Richard stand apparents. I
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: it's terrible loss. You have to you have to just
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: keep plowing ahead.
• 49:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah you do.
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I just have to keep moving ahead.
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: Perryopolis Phil shares a lot of comments with everyone, but
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: He also says, in the future, can non Big twelve
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: referees for road games work for us some questionable pass
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: interference inference calls. We are allowed to get better and
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: I'm hopeful that we will. That was bad. I thought
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: there was an interference on Gallagher. They did call it
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: late on a Gallagher play over the middle. I don't
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: know what you're referring to another one.
• 49:46
  Speaker 3: It was another one.
• 49:46
  Speaker 2: I think was it Gallagher red or somebody late. It
• 49:50
  Speaker 2: was late and again somebody late where they did not
• 49:52
  Speaker 2: call it.
• 49:53
  Speaker 4: You know, again, I'm not complaining about the official officials.
• 49:56
  Speaker 4: I'm citing some examples where I thought that there were
• 50:00
  Speaker 4: questionable calls, but just just that because we also grade
• 50:02
  Speaker 4: the officials.
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: Tony brad Happy, huge fan, first time writer.
• 50:08
  Speaker 3: Hmm.
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: I wanted to make sure until I waited until it
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: was over, but my thoughts were written and captured throughout
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: the game. I understand Ohio's a phenomenal Mac team. I
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: understand it wasn't a gimme. Shocked and appalled it disappointed
• 50:21
  Speaker 1: how we lost the game. Everything that coach Rod preached
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: over the entire offseason of hard work and being mandatory
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: on every play by all players must have been abandoned.
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: Minus a few plays here and there, the team played uninspired, unenthusiastic, sloppy, slow,
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: and overall undisciplined. We all knew this was going to
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: be a tough season with eighty one new guys and
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: coaching staff. I don't think anyone envisioned this team playing
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: this poorly and being this fatigued and just its second game.
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: I want to avoid being dramatic, but I think this
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: was the absolute worst case scenario for Rich's second tenure here.
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: It's going to be extremely difficult to pick up any
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: remaining wins at this point with ten straight P four opponents.
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: That's really looking for a light at the end of
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: the tunnel. It's left me depressed, heartbroken, and overall feeling
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: foolish for believing things could go back to the way
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: they were pre twenty nineteen. Please share your thoughts on this.
• 51:17
  Speaker 4: By the way, Rich did take complete responsibility for the
• 51:19
  Speaker 4: massive fail.
• 51:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, as he should.
• 51:25
  Speaker 4: But that's what I think a coach does, and doesn't
• 51:26
  Speaker 4: come out and say, well, this guy didn't make a play.
• 51:29
  Speaker 3: That guy didn't make a play.
• 51:29
  Speaker 4: I mean he said poor performance, poor coaching. I mean
• 51:33
  Speaker 4: he said that to Jed in a quick postgame.
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: Interview, Texter, why do I care? Why do I care
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: so much that this freaking game seems to have ruined
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: my weekend?
• 51:45
  Speaker 3: Oh, I don't want to do that.
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: It's a game. It's a game. Just go be pitt
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: aj south Park, three guys. Disaster has struck. It's time
• 51:54
  Speaker 1: to call the restoration company. Rich Rod calls Panhandle Cleaning
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: and Restoration. He wants us put a call into the
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: Contragurros over there at Panhandle so if they can clean
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: this thing up. Texter. I try not to be vocal
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: about officiating, because I know it's a hard job that
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't want. But that call and non reversal on replay,
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: the reception on Vaughn was brutal. The game may have
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: been a different outcome had they got it correct.
• 52:19
  Speaker 4: Still have Nike plays, though you didn't make enough plays.
• 52:22
  Speaker 4: Even if that, even if you made that, if.
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: You get that reception, if you get that reception and
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: you punch it in and score, and then let's just
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: say you hold them and you get a field goal
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: and you win the thing twenty to seventeen, you know
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: what you would have done, what you would have stole
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: the game, So yeah, I mean that's what I mean, Like, yeah,
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: you could have. You can certainly make the case. And
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: I thought that was a catch. I did, I'll be
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: quite honest with you, And these officials do the absolute
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: best job that they possibly can. They truly do. But
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: the only thing I think of is like when you
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: got a big twelve crew and you're on the road
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: and it's like fifty to fifty, like, take care of
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: your freaking team, take care of your Really, yeah, I'm
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: on a fifty to fifty Like the Vaughn thing, Like
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: if they would have come back and said the kid
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: made the catch, like no one would be losing their
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: mind and say, tell me how he didn't make the
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: catch he had if the ball never touched the turf
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: right right then, that to me is a catch. His
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: foot was down, his knee was down in bounce, Like
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: if it's that close then and you're the freaking league,
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: it's your freaking guys, like, yeah, Brad.
• 53:32
  Speaker 3: What did you think?
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: Well?
• 53:33
  Speaker 2: I thought it was a catch. I realized my view
• 53:35
  Speaker 2: is going to be biased there a little bit, but
• 53:37
  Speaker 2: I thought it was a catch. I'm wondering those you'll
• 53:39
  Speaker 2: never get an answer to this. I just wonder if
• 53:42
  Speaker 2: if that's in the first quarter, do they change that.
• 53:45
  Speaker 2: Do they do they look at that and think that's
• 53:47
  Speaker 2: that's going to change the game. Probably, right, that's going
• 53:50
  Speaker 2: to change the game. And it was close. I'm not
• 53:54
  Speaker 2: going to change the game with a call that was close.
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: Never get an answer on that.
• 53:59
  Speaker 1: And that boys though to catch it's a catch.
• 54:02
  Speaker 3: I thought that.
• 54:03
  Speaker 2: I thought he had it.
• 54:03
  Speaker 3: I thought it was a I thought it was a catch.
• 54:06
  Speaker 4: However, it was, it was close, it was close, and
• 54:12
  Speaker 4: the and since the call was incomplete, was there enough
• 54:16
  Speaker 4: evidence to overturn. I thought he caught the ball, the
• 54:18
  Speaker 4: ball and touch around and his feet were in bounce.
• 54:20
  Speaker 3: I thought his knees. I thought it was I thought
• 54:22
  Speaker 3: it was close. I thought you I thought you could make.
• 54:24
  Speaker 2: The argument down the toes were in before the knee
• 54:29
  Speaker 2: came down and looked like he had it. But that's
• 54:31
  Speaker 2: that's what I'm saying, because they ruled it incomplete and
• 54:34
  Speaker 2: it was such a big play in that moment because
• 54:36
  Speaker 2: you're going to tie the game likely, yeah, right, if
• 54:38
  Speaker 2: you give if you give Western that catch, I just
• 54:40
  Speaker 2: wonder if that plays into it. They said that's close.
• 54:43
  Speaker 2: We already called it incomplete. We're just stay with incomplete,
• 54:46
  Speaker 2: not let not left overturn.
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: So I go against that logic. The logic is, yeah,
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: go ahead and give it to him. That it's tie. Okay, boys,
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: play it out, it's even start. Whoever scores wins.
• 54:55
  Speaker 3: Brad, do you agree with Tony there should be a
• 54:58
  Speaker 3: big bias.
• 55:00
  Speaker 1: In a bias, I'm saying no, I'm not saying do
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: something wrong. I'm saying, if it's fifty to fifty, well
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: give it to your team.
• 55:06
  Speaker 2: Well, no, they're not supposed to know that. They're not
• 55:08
  Speaker 2: supposed to do that. To count your point there, I
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: would say this, how many times in basketball, DC officials
• 55:14
  Speaker 2: swallow the whistle when there's contact at the rim because
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: they claim they're not going to decide, not to decide
• 55:18
  Speaker 2: in the game. So to me, that was they there
• 55:21
  Speaker 2: was contact at the rim on that last play, and
• 55:24
  Speaker 2: they swallowed the whistle. They played off.
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: Maybe someone in the main office is there the Big
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: twelve probably would like to see that call reversed. Good
• 55:40
  Speaker 1: game day in here for your league. Probably wouldn't help
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: the wouldn't help the conference a little bit. I don't know,
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: just saying it's a business.
• 55:46
  Speaker 3: Gentlemen, I'm not sure you could have punched it in.
• 55:49
  Speaker 3: Who knows you're so infective.
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: You'd like to try. Gentlemen, I have a question. I
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: keep hearing all from the rich Ride apologist it's going
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: to take three to four years to fix things. My question,
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: why it's not two thousand and five. He's not going
• 56:03
  Speaker 1: to stack recruiting classes on top of each other and
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: have four years to develop people like White Slaton Schmidt.
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: Every year is a new team. This is his team.
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: What happened on the field in Ohio was his college
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: football full of programs that have turned it around in
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: a year with new coaches TCU, Indiana, Arizona State. What
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: am I missing? Not just you gotta I understand just
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: no one's saying. I mean who they're saying time. This
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: is not a three to four year problem. No, not
• 56:26
  Speaker 1: in today's world. So that's not the case.
• 56:29
  Speaker 3: Two is the new two is the new four.
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: I think that's fair. Two is the new five. Yeah,
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: I think that's fair. Yeah. So just the TCU, Indiana
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: Arizona State thing. I mean, my point to that would
• 56:43
  Speaker 1: be this, if it were that easy to do, then
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: every coach, every program that changes its coach should win
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: double figures in their first season. Just this doesn't happen.
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: And I saw that was my concern going into the year.
• 56:57
  Speaker 1: If it was this easy, like this can't be instant tea.
• 57:00
  Speaker 1: Will you just make the hot water and you put
• 57:02
  Speaker 1: the tea bag in there and you have tea, Like
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: I don't think you can just go get eighty one
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: new guys and like put the put the mixture in
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: there and go like, Okay, that's a team. Yeah, it
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: was gonna take time. Hey, guys, Joe Max South Parkersburg.
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: I'm surprised Hoppy or Brad didn't hit this on the
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: start of the preview show last week. Ohio, Uh five
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: times have had crowds twenty five thousand or more since
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: twenty twelve. They're five and zero in those games numbers, Brad,
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: they had the numbers.
• 57:34
  Speaker 3: How was the crowd build? Was it noisy?
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: I couldn't. I don't. I don't know because I was
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: I was in I was in a booth. Glass didn't do.
• 57:45
  Speaker 2: A lot to give them a lot of chance to
• 57:46
  Speaker 2: make noise either. That's true, right, that's part of it
• 57:48
  Speaker 2: that was probably severely hampered by the lack of production what.
• 57:53
  Speaker 3: Of golden blue and crowd?
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: Oh goodness, overwhelming, tremendous. You had the window shut, I
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: know the win was didn't open? What the windows will
• 58:03
  Speaker 1: not open?
• 58:04
  Speaker 3: No, I had to bump you out. It did.
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: I had a little transom window where it was slide
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: a microphone through. Oh man. Yeah, so the only crowd
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: I heard was in my headsets from the mic. But yeah,
• 58:13
  Speaker 1: it's a little bit different. I couldn't get a true feel.
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: But no, it was great. I'm a great environment. Yeah,
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: beautiful area. Folks there were extremely nice. They did. It
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: was a great job they have.
• 58:24
  Speaker 4: I know we're going to not make him out, as
• 58:26
  Speaker 4: Brad would say, the eighty four eighty five Bears, whatever,
• 58:29
  Speaker 4: but they do have it going.
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: They're doing really well.
• 58:32
  Speaker 4: Thirty one wins in three years, won the Bowl, won
• 58:36
  Speaker 4: bunch of bowl games, beat Jacksonville State last year in
• 58:39
  Speaker 4: a bowl game, one and one against Power four teams
• 58:43
  Speaker 4: to start this season.
• 58:44
  Speaker 1: Well, here's what they have. They got a quarterback. Yeah,
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: they got a quarterback. If they had Bobby Jones back
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: there yesterday and Bobby Jones was was a stiff and
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: couldn't run West Virginia, they did. They win the game,
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: and that's it, kid, the difference he made the plays,
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: he won the game, got quarterback Mark and san Diego.
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: We had three picks. Yeah, exactly, despite the fact that
• 59:06
  Speaker 1: he had three picks, Mark and San Diego. Can you
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: explain from a financial perspective how much a two for
• 59:12
  Speaker 1: one with Ohio was better for the bottom line as
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: opposed to buying three different home games with three group
• 59:18
  Speaker 1: of five opponents. Just trying to understand the risk versus
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: the reward. You want to do this, You want me
• 59:22
  Speaker 1: to do this, Okay, So the average price to bring
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: in a group of five team to Morgantown's probably one
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: point five million dollars. In fact, Ohio's going to make
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: two million dollars for going to Ohio State this coming weekend.
• 59:35
  Speaker 1: So you do these two for ones for this reason.
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: It's cheaper for you to do it, obviously, So that's
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: how it works. Let's just say two for one Ohio,
• 59:48
  Speaker 1: West Virginia gets three hundred thousand dollars for going over
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: there yesterday. When Ohio comes back over here, West Virginia
• 59:55
  Speaker 1: gives them three hundred thousand.
• 59:56
  Speaker 2: Dollars, so or even covers travel, basic, all.
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: The other stuff. So the next time that OHI University comes,
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 1: you're going to pay him the friends and family rate
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: of about seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars. So instead
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: of paying them one five, you're basically saving seven hundred
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 1: and fifty thousand dollars by doing it that way. So
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 1: if you go there yesterday and you win and then
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: you beat them twice, here you go, hey, it's a
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: freaking great deal. You saved seven fifty thousand dollars. You
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 1: lose and you go, what the hell did you do
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: that for? Plain and simple?
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 2: Kevin From those are the ones. They are just the
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 2: nightmare scenario when you lose them, Yeah, because that's when
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 2: you went in and bought off the sale rap. But
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 2: it's no returns because it's on clearance sale and he
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 2: didn't check it, and you got home and it had
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 2: one sleeve.
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 2: Sometimes you get home it was a pair of air
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 2: Jordan once there there that somebody didn't wear and they
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 2: didn't know they were there. They marked for five dollars,
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 2: you got them, you walked out giggling.
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: And then the next time you took him home. They
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 1: didn't have a tongue. In the year.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 2: This one just didn't have a sleep or you buy.
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 3: I think they're air Jordan's and it's spelled j E
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 3: R d O in Okay.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it happened to Iowa State, right, and
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 1: they got they got the same deal. They got caught
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 1: there too. We didn't have the flu though yesterday Texans Texter.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 1: Many reasons combined to lead to today's loss, But I'm
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 1: sick to death of these situations where an official review
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 1: takes place in West Virginia's games and they have an
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 1: opportunity to overturn the incorrect call, but they don't do it.
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: What is the point in wasting our time with a
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 1: review if you can't get it right. Many reasons why
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 1: we lost, but this blunder, combined with a blatant hold
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 1: by Ohio's O line on their second TD, could have
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 1: changed the game in a major way. I'm not giving
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 1: up on Rich. I'll be there next week. Let's beat
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 1: the hell out of Pitt Kevin Kaiser.
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 4: If you watch a Got to College Football, there are
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 4: a lot of lengthy reviews where the outcomes you go,
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 4: what that happens all the time?
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 1: Texter. A lot of people got on me about telling
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 1: them to get there early. Jason from Somersville, got there
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 1: too early. Even went to Birch River Gomart and I
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: was in my seat at two point fifteen. I met
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 1: some fantastic people in the parking lot when I was
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 1: walking into the plenty of parking. Bob, I want to
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 1: show you a picture here of Bob and Ashton. They
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 1: are missionaries in Guatemala and Braden if you could get
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: that picture up of our Guatemalan coffee. So that's Ashton
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 1: the Sun. Bob's the Dad West Virginians, and there are
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 1: missionaries in Guatemala. And Bob and his wife have been
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 1: there for years and he's been some big games just
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: over here. Now going to be going back. But he
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 1: told me a lot about the Guatemalan coffee world. Stunningly,
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 1: stunningly and really nice people, stunningly big three guys. Listener
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 1: says about four families run all the Guatemala coffee.
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 2: Cartel, coffee cartel, coffee cartel.
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 1: Coffee cartel. And he says, that's you know, that's just
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 1: the way it is. Like if you wanted to get
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 1: coffee out, you got to go through those one of
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 1: those four families. So you know, some of our coffees
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 1: from Guatemala Rusty uses. I don't know if Rusty's now
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: involved in some kind of a cartel legal, not legal
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: or anything. But you know what he told me, He's
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 1: gonna send us some coffee from Guatemala. Not let the
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 1: families know. So great mountaineers and doing doing a great,
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: great work there.
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 4: Now wait a minute, you said you you saw them,
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 4: you got with him. I'm looking at the picture in
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 4: the parking lot. I don't see anything there. There's nothing
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 4: there except you three guys, some pavement in trees. I
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 4: don't see any other vehicles there.
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 1: Just a composition of the shot. Might have got there
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 1: little early. Also, I ran these ran into these guys here.
• 1:03:50
