Speaker 3: Welcome into Chip Howard Sports Talk. I'm Caleb Brapoli filling
0:43
Speaker 3: in for Chippoward for the second time this week here
0:47
Speaker 3: on the Zone eleven to fifty am ninety three point
0:50
Speaker 3: seven FM Thursday afternoon in Agiland. I'm here alongside board
0:56
Speaker 3: op Trey.
0:57
Speaker 4: Trey. How's it going.
0:58
Speaker 5: It's going good, going, good time on the mic, so
1:02
Speaker 5: looking to be better than last time.
1:04
Speaker 3: I know the people are excited to hear your voice
1:09
Speaker 3: today as it's only the second time as you mentioned
1:11
Speaker 3: that you get to do that, so I'm sure that's exciting.
1:15
Speaker 3: I want to start out by congratulating Aggie Men's Tennis
1:19
Speaker 3: and Aggie Women's Tennis for both punching their tickets to
1:22
Speaker 3: the ITA Indoor Championships. That's a tournament that's kind of,
1:26
Speaker 3: you know, similar to how you know a lot of
1:29
Speaker 3: the basketball teams play in early season tournaments. So both
1:32
Speaker 3: Aggie tennis teams in the championship for that. Love to
1:36
Speaker 3: see some success in the Marione and White. So more
1:40
Speaker 3: Aggie related news. Braden Montgomery, former AGGI baseball player, was
1:45
Speaker 3: one of the two non roster invitees of the outfielders
1:49
Speaker 3: from the Chicago White Sox system invited to spring training,
1:54
Speaker 3: so he will be in I'm not sure if they're
1:56
Speaker 3: Florida or Arizona spring training team, but it'll be good
1:59
Speaker 3: to see him.
2:00
Speaker 4: Back in action.
2:01
Speaker 3: He is the number thirty six prospect in the new
2:05
Speaker 3: twenty twenty six Top one hundred from MLB dot Com.
2:08
Speaker 4: Brad Montgomery, of.
2:09
Speaker 3: Course, part of that College World Series run from a
2:11
Speaker 3: couple of years ago, probably the best overall player on
2:15
Speaker 3: that team.
2:16
Speaker 5: If he was in, could we have won.
2:18
Speaker 4: Yeah, if he.
2:19
Speaker 3: Wouldn't have got hurt against Oregon, who knows, a lot
2:22
Speaker 3: of crazy things could have happened. Martin Maldonado, former Astro catcher,
2:28
Speaker 3: is getting his first chance at managing, which is something
2:30
Speaker 3: that I always thought he'd be really good at. I mean,
2:33
Speaker 3: you see a lot of catchers have success as managers.
2:35
Speaker 3: He is in the Puerto Rican League with Indio's de
2:38
Speaker 3: Mayaguez on a two year contract, and they have also
2:42
Speaker 3: hired former Astros hitting coach alex Son Trone to be
2:44
Speaker 3: their GM.
2:45
Speaker 4: So a couple Astros.
2:50
Speaker 3: Down there in the Puerto Rican League, and I think
2:52
Speaker 3: Martin's gonna have a lot of success as a manager.
2:55
Speaker 3: Wouldn't be surprised to see him make it to the
2:58
Speaker 3: big leagues here in a couple of years after getting
3:01
Speaker 3: some experience. You know, he's still pretty young. I don't
3:03
Speaker 3: even think for managers. You know, he's under forty, so
3:07
Speaker 3: that's that'd be pretty crazy for him to get moved
3:10
Speaker 3: up that quick, kind of like you know, Tony Votello
3:13
Speaker 3: going from Tennessee to San Francisco.
3:15
Speaker 5: So his first year in the majors is coming up.
3:18
Speaker 3: That's going to be a really interesting storyline to watch
3:20
Speaker 3: this year. How he handles that clubhouse. I think that
3:23
Speaker 3: we've talked about it someone here before, but that's definitely
3:27
Speaker 3: something I'm looking forward to see from the Giants, especially
3:29
Speaker 3: as they're looking to compete this year.
3:31
Speaker 5: Yeah. I'm not a big baseball guy, not a big
3:33
Speaker 5: MLB guy. I like college baseball, but that'll be interesting.
3:37
Speaker 5: That's an interesting storyline to keep an eye on over
3:40
Speaker 5: the year.
3:42
Speaker 3: Vitello San Francisco is number nineteen in the Prospect rankings,
3:48
Speaker 3: so their farm system is nineteenth of all the teams,
3:52
Speaker 3: which is up a lot from last year where they
3:55
Speaker 3: were second to last, so they have come a long way.
3:58
Speaker 3: Vytello is going to have a lot to work with
4:00
Speaker 3: over there. It'll be interesting to see for sure. Some
4:04
Speaker 3: more news around the sports world, the Fiesta Bowl will
4:07
Speaker 3: be putting on the first ever National collegiate women's flag
4:11
Speaker 3: football Tournament what featuring eight D one universities. This is
4:15
Speaker 3: going to be hosted by Arizona State, who is of
4:18
Speaker 3: course one of the universities participating. April eighteenth and nineteenth
4:23
Speaker 3: Flag Football National Collegiate Women's Tournament.
4:26
Speaker 5: Who what collegiate women. Are they going to go get
4:29
Speaker 5: like other I.
4:30
Speaker 4: Don't know, I mean that would make sense.
4:33
Speaker 3: I haven't looked into it that much, just saw a headline,
4:37
Speaker 3: but yeah, there's.
4:38
Speaker 4: A lot of different directions you could go there.
4:39
Speaker 3: I mean, you could get some women's lacrosse players out there,
4:42
Speaker 3: women's women's field hockey are all kinds of stuff like that.
4:47
Speaker 3: It would be I know that there are flag football
4:50
Speaker 3: leagues for women, and it seems like that's going to
4:53
Speaker 3: be a new pipeline that starts happening. Is they play
4:56
Speaker 3: in high school and then they have collegiate teams, so
4:59
Speaker 3: that's yeah. Flag football is one of the fastest rising sports.
5:03
Speaker 3: It is now an NCAA sports so we'll be interesting
5:06
Speaker 3: to see where that goes.
5:07
Speaker 5: Speaking of flag football, this weekend, is the Pro Ball
5:09
Speaker 5: is it not? Yeah?
5:12
Speaker 3: Some reason there which I've stopped caring about the Pro
5:15
Speaker 3: Bowl once they started doing the flag football game, to
5:18
Speaker 3: be honest.
5:18
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know why you would really be glued
5:21
Speaker 5: to your TV to watch flag football. I know they
5:23
Speaker 5: also play things like dodgeball and tug of war.
5:26
Speaker 3: Yeah, they have a bunch of different mini games. It's
5:30
Speaker 3: just hard to do an all star game in NFL
5:32
Speaker 3: because injuries are so common, and in baseball it's it's
5:37
Speaker 3: not that bad. You can just have a pitcher throw
5:39
Speaker 3: one inning and they're usually going to be fine. But
5:43
Speaker 3: in football, every time you go out there, you're risking,
5:45
Speaker 3: you know, a career ending injury. So it doesn't really
5:48
Speaker 3: make a whole lot of sense to have that extra game.
5:50
Speaker 3: So it makes sense why they don't do that anymore.
5:53
Speaker 3: But it's still it's just not that interesting to go
5:55
Speaker 3: out there and just watch them, you know, try to
5:58
Speaker 3: be trick shot YouTubers for a weekend yeap, Miles Garrett
6:02
Speaker 3: was named the Sporting News Defensive Player of the Year,
6:06
Speaker 3: which is an award voted on by peers from around
6:10
Speaker 3: the league. As his third consecutive year winning the award,
6:15
Speaker 3: the former Aggie made NFL history this week with twenty
6:19
Speaker 3: three sacks in a single season, breaking the record held
6:23
Speaker 3: previously by Michael Strahan, and it's the third time that
6:27
Speaker 3: he's set the record for the Browns franchise single season
6:30
Speaker 3: sack record, which he set in twenty twenty one and
6:33
Speaker 3: then tied in twenty twenty two and broke again this year.
6:37
Speaker 3: So Miles Garrett owns the leader board. In that stat
6:40
Speaker 3: for the Browns, he was the first player since nineteen
6:43
Speaker 3: eighty two to record twelve sacks in six consecutive seasons,
6:48
Speaker 3: as well as setting the record for the most sacks
6:50
Speaker 3: by a player under thirty, surpassing Reggie White. So Miles
6:52
Speaker 3: Garrett looks like he's on a Hall of Fame trajectory.
6:57
Speaker 5: Sucks that he's on the Browns.
6:59
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was, you know, last off season, one of
7:02
Speaker 3: the big storylines was Miles Garrett asking for a trade.
7:05
Speaker 5: That was last off season.
7:06
Speaker 4: I think so a long time.
7:08
Speaker 3: It does feel like a long time ago, but I
7:09
Speaker 3: think that was the last offseason. Yep, all that talk,
7:12
Speaker 3: and yes, he acted like he wanted to win, said
7:16
Speaker 3: it was a priority, and then took the large bag
7:19
Speaker 3: of money that the Browns threw at him.
7:20
Speaker 4: And I can't say I blame him.
7:21
Speaker 3: It's just it's it's unfortunate watching him, watching players like
7:25
Speaker 3: him on the Browns get wasted. And then it just
7:29
Speaker 3: reminds me back to baseball that Angels and Mike Trout.
7:33
Speaker 3: It's just sad to see the stars of the game
7:35
Speaker 3: beyond teams that are never competing. Quick reminder you can
7:42
Speaker 3: join the conversation by calling us at nine seven nine
7:46
Speaker 3: six nine three eleven fifty that's the Player's Fun Center
7:49
Speaker 3: phone line, or texting us at that same number nine
7:52
Speaker 3: seven nine six nine three eleven fifty.
7:54
Speaker 4: We'd love to hear your thoughts.
7:57
Speaker 3: And continuing with the NFL upcoming Super Bowl, of course,
8:02
Speaker 3: next on the docket Patriots and Seahawks, and I think
8:08
Speaker 3: the uniform matchups were announced.
8:10
Speaker 5: I believe the Patriots had the home pick.
8:14
Speaker 3: Yeah, so what they choose, well, that mean I think
8:17
Speaker 3: they're gonna wear home jerseys to the Navy. And then
8:21
Speaker 3: there was a lot of talk about the about the
8:23
Speaker 3: two teams using their their throwback uniforms, which would have
8:26
Speaker 3: looked really good in my opinion, but alas, the NFL
8:31
Speaker 3: doesn't like cool things for some reason. As we mentioned
8:36
Speaker 3: the last time that I was on the show, Bill
8:38
Speaker 3: Belichick did not get voted into the Hall of Fame,
8:42
Speaker 3: which could make it and another thing that could make
8:44
Speaker 3: it even more awkward is that Patriots owner Robert Kraft
8:50
Speaker 3: is also up for Hall of Fame candidacy, which would
8:54
Speaker 3: be really funny if he gets voted in after Belichick
8:56
Speaker 3: did not. I think everybody is kind of lost a
9:00
Speaker 3: lot of respect for the Hall of Fame voting after
9:02
Speaker 3: Belichick didn't get in, but it still would be really
9:05
Speaker 3: funny to see Robert Kraft get in and there be
9:08
Speaker 3: no Belichick. The official announcement of the twenty twenty sixth
9:13
Speaker 3: class of NFL Hall of Famers will come next Thursday,
9:16
Speaker 3: in the run up to the Super Bowl. The voting
9:19
Speaker 3: actually took place on January thirteenth, so the only thing
9:22
Speaker 3: we know about the voting was the leak that Belichick
9:25
Speaker 3: didn't get in, which we weren't supposed to know about.
9:28
Speaker 4: Not really sure where that came from, but.
9:33
Speaker 5: You know, and not as big a deal as Belichick.
9:35
Speaker 5: Still no Eli Manning.
9:38
Speaker 4: He's up for He's up for it. This year.
9:40
Speaker 3: He could get in, we don't know yet, hope so
9:44
Speaker 3: Craft would be the seventeenth owner voted in, alongside Jerry
9:51
Speaker 3: Jones and some others including Willington Morra who was the
9:56
Speaker 3: Giants owner, and Edward deve Bartolo, who was the Niners owner.
10:02
Speaker 3: But Craft's team is playing in their tenth Super Bowl
10:07
Speaker 3: on February eighth, but it'll be the first without Belichick
10:10
Speaker 3: or Tom Brady in it. Moving into some college basketball news,
10:20
Speaker 3: undefeated Nebraska finally took their first loss of the season
10:25
Speaker 3: at Michigan, seventy five to seventy two. A great game
10:29
Speaker 3: up in the Midwest, Michigan with their nineteenth win and
10:35
Speaker 3: their ninth in Big Ten play. Nebraska dead lead at
10:38
Speaker 3: the half fifty to forty eight, and a low scoring
10:42
Speaker 3: second half saw Michigan get the upper hand, scoring twenty
10:45
Speaker 3: seven to the corn Huskers twenty two. So a big,
10:51
Speaker 3: big swing there for Big Ten basketball, as Nebraska was
10:56
Speaker 3: undef I think they were twenty to zero for the
10:57
Speaker 3: first time in school history. And we talked about last
11:00
Speaker 3: time how they still have never won an NCAA tournament game,
11:03
Speaker 3: which is likely to change this year. I mean, they're
11:07
Speaker 3: definitely going to make the tournament. Being ranked in the
11:09
Speaker 3: top five this late, they're almost guaranteed a spot, as
11:12
Speaker 3: long as they don't completely collapse over the home shreds
11:15
Speaker 3: of the season. But that'll be an interesting storyline to watch.
11:20
Speaker 3: We're gonna take a quick break and we'll be back
11:22
Speaker 3: with some audio of Bucky McMillan previewing the game against Georgia.
11:28
Speaker 4: We'll be right back after this. On the Zone.

13:52
Speaker 3: I'm Cala Grappleye filling in for Chip Howard on this
13:56
Speaker 3: Thursday afternoon. We're about to hear from head coach of
14:00
Speaker 3: your Texas A and m Aggies men's basketball team.
14:03
Speaker 4: Bucky McMillan.
14:05
Speaker 3: With the upcoming Georgia game being the first game action
14:09
Speaker 3: for the Aggies in a week since they beat South
14:13
Speaker 3: Carolina last Saturday, So got a little bit of a
14:16
Speaker 3: buye to rest up and recharge with, which I think
14:19
Speaker 3: is pretty crucial for the Aggies.
14:22
Speaker 4: You know, they like to play a very.
14:25
Speaker 3: Fast style of basketball, So this extra rest, getting the
14:30
Speaker 3: full seven days, I think they'll be they'll be on
14:32
Speaker 3: some pretty fresh legs as they go on the road
14:36
Speaker 3: to take on the Bulldogs in Athens. Let's hear from
14:38
Speaker 3: Bucky games.
14:42
Speaker 7: Allow yourself to look at see like, you know this
14:44
Speaker 7: five game stretch could mean or is it just the
14:47
Speaker 7: whole coaches.
14:49
Speaker 5: Camel past Georgia.
14:51
Speaker 13: Yeah?
14:51
Speaker 8: I for me, I don't. I'm always just one game
14:56
Speaker 8: at a time, is really what you say. But I'm
14:58
Speaker 8: even probably before that, I just think about how can
15:00
Speaker 8: we play good back? How can we play good? And
15:03
Speaker 8: I mean that's that's kind of how you give yourself
15:05
Speaker 8: the best chance. Like I'm not even thinking about Georgia.
15:07
Speaker 8: I'm thinking about us more than anything, Like how can
15:09
Speaker 8: we play as well as we can play? And and
15:12
Speaker 8: then the rest kind of takes care of yourself. I
15:14
Speaker 8: was watching all the teams last night though, like just
15:17
Speaker 8: all of them that teams were gonna play coming up
15:19
Speaker 8: just right there. So all good teams, all different, you know,
15:24
Speaker 8: they all play very different, and but for us to
15:28
Speaker 8: have our best chance, we just got to play well.
15:30
Speaker 7: Speaking of playing teams playing different, how much different is
15:33
Speaker 7: Georgia in Texas An?
15:37
Speaker 8: You know, they play fast. There's to the neck a eye,
15:41
Speaker 8: it's similar in ways, but there's also differences in the
15:45
Speaker 8: approach and I approached and their approach with certain things.
15:49
Speaker 8: But to the neck at eye it will look like
15:51
Speaker 8: a fun, up tempo basketball game. Yep, you talk about
15:55
Speaker 8: working on yourself.
15:55
Speaker 5: This week will be a full week off between games.
15:58
Speaker 5: So what did this week look like for you guys?
16:00
Speaker 8: Was kind of the focus. Yeah, we took some days off,
16:03
Speaker 8: two days off, one day on, one day off, and
16:06
Speaker 8: then practice today and tomorrow. So you know, we did
16:11
Speaker 8: more skill than anything what I consider skill and just
16:15
Speaker 8: trying to get our guys skilled back up after the
16:18
Speaker 8: time off. But we needed some time off, not just
16:21
Speaker 8: for this game, but just for the duration of the season.
16:24
Speaker 8: I'm glad, glad some of these guys got it.
16:26
Speaker 14: And to that point, did you think this came out
16:27
Speaker 14: a good time, this little kind of week off.
16:30
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean it's you know, you'd like to have
16:33
Speaker 8: like right in the middle, like I bleeve play so
16:35
Speaker 8: in two more games would been perfect, But you know,
16:37
Speaker 8: it is what it is.
16:40
Speaker 14: Sometimes coaches look at seasons and different segments or dividing
16:45
Speaker 14: stuff up. Do you with the players, do y'all divide
16:48
Speaker 14: up the conference season or anything like that into any
16:50
Speaker 14: kind of segments or is it, like you said, truly
16:53
Speaker 14: just looking at getting good every time.
16:55
Speaker 8: Yeah, you just want to get better every game and
16:57
Speaker 8: play the best basketball you can play. In my mind,
17:00
Speaker 8: and I look at basketball like this. You have the
17:02
Speaker 8: all the preseason stuff up to the first game, and
17:04
Speaker 8: then from the first game to conference play, and then
17:07
Speaker 8: you have conference play. Once we get conference play, our practice,
17:10
Speaker 8: we try to tone it down a little bit. The
17:14
Speaker 8: scouts go a little bit deeper obviously, and we know
17:17
Speaker 8: that there's a two game a week deal, so the
17:19
Speaker 8: rest becomes important early in the season. It's really about like, hey,
17:24
Speaker 8: it's just totally about us now. It's like ninety percent
17:27
Speaker 8: us ten percent of them, I would say, I would
17:29
Speaker 8: say most teams. It's like a lot of times it's
17:32
Speaker 8: forty percent of them, sixty percent the other team. But
17:34
Speaker 8: we try to still stay focused majority on what we
17:38
Speaker 8: got and then you got the postseason.
17:39
Speaker 14: Obviously, we asked for Sean about different had similarities between
17:43
Speaker 14: the two styles. He almost got kind of a little
17:45
Speaker 14: defensive like, no, we have our styles that some of
17:47
Speaker 14: that identity, like buy into the identity that you've talked
17:50
Speaker 14: about that it kind of is part of them and
17:53
Speaker 14: a part of this team, the way that.
17:54
Speaker 8: Y'll do things. Yeah, well, I mean we know who
17:56
Speaker 8: we are and above all else, I mean, we're gonna
17:58
Speaker 8: have to play extremely hard all the time and pride
18:03
Speaker 8: ourselves on being that and playing unselfish at all times.
18:08
Speaker 8: So you know, again, like I don't I think if
18:12
Speaker 8: you ask our players, they're always going to say we're
18:15
Speaker 8: our own unique deal because we're not so honed in
18:19
Speaker 8: on another team. We're so honed in nine percent on
18:22
Speaker 8: us all the time. So it's really like we feel
18:25
Speaker 8: that we if we do what we're supposed to do,
18:29
Speaker 8: we'll be successful. Who controls us doing what we're supposed
18:33
Speaker 8: to do? We do, so who controls the outcome of
18:35
Speaker 8: the game, we do because we control the factors that
18:40
Speaker 8: lead to good basketball, and playing good basketball is winning basketball.
18:44
Speaker 8: And so that discipline is the mindset you got to have.
18:46
Speaker 8: And then that way you control everything you do. You're
18:49
Speaker 8: not relying on them doing something, You relying on on
18:52
Speaker 8: on us doing something.
18:54
Speaker 15: For Sean mentioned that you guys have really been focusing
18:57
Speaker 15: on rebounding as of late. Just what have you seen
19:00
Speaker 15: from your team that you guys have been able to
19:01
Speaker 15: make some forward progress.
19:03
Speaker 8: In that aspect. Yeah, just detail with it. You got
19:06
Speaker 8: to you know, obviously, block out every time. You know,
19:11
Speaker 8: you see a lot of fouls called in a basketball game,
19:13
Speaker 8: but there's not a lot called on hard blockouts. So
19:17
Speaker 8: like if we get one or two of those a game,
19:19
Speaker 8: we just got to live with that, because you know,
19:21
Speaker 8: it's hard to win when teams are getting a large
19:23
Speaker 8: percentage of their missus back. You know, you saw the game,
19:27
Speaker 8: like Tennessee's a really big, good offensive rebounding team. They
19:31
Speaker 8: were able to get some offense rebounds on us, and
19:32
Speaker 8: a lot of times we're blocking out pretty good. You
19:35
Speaker 8: can live with some of those, but you know, you
19:39
Speaker 8: can't live with four guys doing one thing and then
19:42
Speaker 8: one guy opus. I just I just had a moment
19:45
Speaker 8: where I lost my focus and it kills everybody.
19:50
Speaker 15: When it when when it comes to Rashawn too talked
19:53
Speaker 15: about the vocal nature of him on the court.
19:55
Speaker 4: Just how do you see him channel that in a
19:57
Speaker 4: in a good way or a right way that.
20:00
Speaker 15: It you know, it doesn't overcome him or he's able
20:04
Speaker 15: to channel that properly.
20:06
Speaker 8: He's just a veteran, you know, like he knows like uh,
20:10
Speaker 8: like he knows that he's that he's got to playoff
20:14
Speaker 8: intensity and not just the emotion of the game. And
20:17
Speaker 8: so even though he can have emotion, he's constantly has
20:20
Speaker 8: the right intensity. He doesn't let He's not gonna let
20:24
Speaker 8: like a refs call take him out of the next play.
20:26
Speaker 8: He's not gonna let some like deal going on with
20:29
Speaker 8: another player take him out of his game. He's a veteran, right,
20:33
Speaker 8: He's not a kid. And you know, therefore he's playing
20:37
Speaker 8: better and better veteran basketball and good basketball.
20:41
Speaker 14: I know it's a game after but how much were
20:43
Speaker 14: y'all as y'all kind of start scout on Alabama looking
20:46
Speaker 14: at the Chris Endeco situation, if you would be available
20:50
Speaker 14: or not.
20:50
Speaker 10: For that game.
20:52
Speaker 8: I mean, I'm just assuming that he that all the
20:54
Speaker 8: players are playing now, are playing until we hear otherwise,
20:57
Speaker 8: you know, so you know, I mean, you know, you
21:01
Speaker 8: watch your team play all year long. I will say this.
21:04
Speaker 8: I think I mentioned this before. You think a lot
21:05
Speaker 8: of things as a coach, and then I never in
21:08
Speaker 8: a million years, Saul, would they gets betioco.
21:10
Speaker 16: You know.
21:11
Speaker 8: So that's not saying right wrong or and different. I'm
21:13
Speaker 8: just saying it's just funny that that that that questions asked.
21:16
Speaker 8: You know what I'm saying. But obviously they're a good team,
21:19
Speaker 8: good players, well coached, got guards, got bigs and bigs
21:24
Speaker 8: and even more bigs now, and tough on their home floor.
21:27
Speaker 8: So got to focus on what we got to do,
21:30
Speaker 8: which is going to be defending those guys, particularly even
21:33
Speaker 8: though he's a good player, they're really their guards or
21:36
Speaker 8: elite guards, and you got to be able to guard
21:38
Speaker 8: them and just not let them live in the paint
21:40
Speaker 8: all night.
21:41
Speaker 1: You know, Ruben talked about your preaching championship level effort
21:45
Speaker 1: from your vantage point, have you seen that guy's kind
21:47
Speaker 1: of live that as you guys call your stride here
21:49
Speaker 1: in conference play?
21:50
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think we play really hard. We got to
21:52
Speaker 8: continue to to let that be our identity. It's just
21:57
Speaker 8: playing hard and unselfish, you know. And you can't take
22:00
Speaker 8: a practice off because like playing hard as a habit,
22:04
Speaker 8: and if you allow that habit to slip, then you
22:08
Speaker 8: won't be playing hard. And you'll see a lot of
22:10
Speaker 8: teams as you go through the season where they may
22:13
Speaker 8: be playing harder earlier in the year than later. We
22:15
Speaker 8: want to be playing hard throughout. But if anything, if
22:18
Speaker 8: it's a habit, your habit should be greater and greater
22:20
Speaker 8: and greater. That you should be able to look at
22:22
Speaker 8: tape and say, man, the hardest we ever played was
22:24
Speaker 8: our last game, because we built that habit up so
22:27
Speaker 8: much that that our identity became stronger and stronger, not
22:31
Speaker 8: the reverse. We dang sure don't want to look like
22:33
Speaker 8: a withered team that's ready for spring break, right. We
22:37
Speaker 8: want to look like a team that you know, I
22:39
Speaker 8: always say the teams that are having the most fun
22:42
Speaker 8: where they refuse to let go of the rope. And
22:44
Speaker 8: as you approach you know, selection Sunday towards the end
22:48
Speaker 8: of the year, we want everyone to look at our
22:50
Speaker 8: group and say, man, those guys they love playing with
22:52
Speaker 8: each other, have a joy when they play, and they're
22:55
Speaker 8: playing their best basketball. One more onmer Sean.
22:58
Speaker 15: Just for all the impact that he's had on your
23:00
Speaker 15: team this season, is there a game or performance that
23:03
Speaker 15: you look at that you go that's the epitome of Rashaan.
23:06
Speaker 8: A g There's just so many, I mean, just just
23:12
Speaker 8: so just so many big plays he's made late in
23:16
Speaker 8: the game. I mean, I will say, you know, I
23:18
Speaker 8: remember the L s U game. This play sticks out
23:21
Speaker 8: to me because he obviously is battling these guys, he's rebounding,
23:25
Speaker 8: he's scoring. But then we come out of it deal
23:28
Speaker 8: we drop a play for Ruben where he's gonna to
23:29
Speaker 8: like thread a ball through a needle for Ruben to
23:31
Speaker 8: get a three to pretty much ice the game. And
23:34
Speaker 8: I mean he takes it as a big and he
23:36
Speaker 8: kind of backs up and throws a left handed hook
23:39
Speaker 8: pass across the floor into the dead corner on the
23:42
Speaker 8: money and just strokes it. And you know that that
23:46
Speaker 8: just goes to show you, like how versatile this player is.
23:49
Speaker 8: And then the other thing that sticks out to me
23:50
Speaker 8: was even though in the first half of Tennessee he
23:53
Speaker 8: mainly got like one or two shots, but that dude
23:56
Speaker 8: was battling those monsters for Tennessee, like he was a
24:00
Speaker 8: literally just fighting so hard down there on defense and
24:04
Speaker 8: just like, look, man, this is what it is. It's
24:06
Speaker 8: just a wrestling match. I may have to rest them
24:09
Speaker 8: on offense just to just so I can continue to
24:12
Speaker 8: do this. And you know that just who he is,
24:16
Speaker 8: he understands what the game calls for. Appreciate you guys.
24:21
Speaker 3: All right, that's Bucky earlier today previewing the Aggies matchup
24:26
Speaker 3: with the Georgia Bulldogs, which will be on Saturday at noon.
24:30
Speaker 3: You can listen on sixteen twenty WTAW Flagship at Aggie
24:35
Speaker 3: Athletics and our sister station. And that Georgia game is
24:40
Speaker 3: gonna kick off a pretty tough stretch of games for
24:42
Speaker 3: the Aggies in the back half of this SEC schedule,
24:46
Speaker 3: back to back road games at Georgia on Saturday and
24:50
Speaker 3: then at Alabama next Wednesday. That's a six pm game,
24:56
Speaker 3: both of those on SEC Network. So both of these
24:58
Speaker 3: games gonna be pretty interesting to see how the Aggie
25:01
Speaker 3: stack up against some of the tougher teams in the SEC.
25:05
Speaker 3: Texas A and M is fortieth in the NET rankings
25:09
Speaker 3: and Georgia is thirty fourth, So I think I think
25:12
Speaker 3: these are you know, a couple of pretty comparable teams.
25:16
Speaker 3: Georgia is coming off of that loss to Tennessee in
25:21
Speaker 3: overtime yesterday eighty six to eighty five. So both of
25:26
Speaker 3: these teams have lost to Tennessee in overtime. Not too
25:29
Speaker 3: often you can say something like that, And it was
25:34
Speaker 3: that one was close all the way through, a real
25:37
Speaker 3: back and forth game, a lot of lead changes, and
25:42
Speaker 3: you know, I think those are two of pretty That's
25:45
Speaker 3: a pretty good gauge of where you're at in the SEC.
25:49
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's definitely a defining stretch.
25:52
Speaker 3: Yeah, After those two back to back road games, the
25:56
Speaker 3: Aggies will go on to face Florida at home home,
26:00
Speaker 3: which is going to be a huge matchup the reigning
26:03
Speaker 3: national champions in Reed Arena. That is next Saturday, February seventh,
26:11
Speaker 3: and then Missouri at Vanderbilt, will miss at home, at Oklahoma,
26:17
Speaker 3: at Arkansas, Texas at home, Kentucky at home, and at
26:21
Speaker 3: LSU to finish out the regular season on March seventh.
26:26
Speaker 3: So definitely a lot tougher back half of the schedule
26:30
Speaker 3: than the front.
26:31
Speaker 4: Half of SEC play was.
26:32
Speaker 3: But you know, I think this Aggie team is built
26:36
Speaker 3: to withstand it and we only need probably three or
26:39
Speaker 3: four wins and that locks up a tournament spot. So
26:42
Speaker 3: not playing with just a ton of pressure, and it'll
26:44
Speaker 3: be interesting to see what Bucky ball can do.
26:47
Speaker 5: That's true, it's definitely not out of reach. I think
26:51
Speaker 5: it's pretty manageable. You know, you can break even, but
26:55
Speaker 5: you really don't even have to break even. You can
26:58
Speaker 5: have a losing record over the stretch still put together
27:01
Speaker 5: a good SEC you know performance.
27:06
Speaker 3: Yeah, eleven games left, so as long as they go
27:08
Speaker 3: three and eight, I think they'd be in the tournament.
27:09
Speaker 3: I think they're capable of much more than that. Of course,
27:13
Speaker 3: the Aggie's currently leading the SEC with a six and
27:16
Speaker 3: one conference record, Arkansas and Florida both a half game
27:19
Speaker 3: back at six and two, and the Aggis also lead
27:23
Speaker 3: the SEC in a couple of other stats assists per game,
27:27
Speaker 3: points per game off the bench, and turnovers forced per game,
27:32
Speaker 3: so they are in the top three of a lot
27:34
Speaker 3: of key statistics. Their second in threes made and threes attempted,
27:40
Speaker 3: which makes sense, and their third and overall points per game.
27:45
Speaker 3: So this is one of the most exciting teams to watch.
27:48
Speaker 3: Might not be the best overall talent wise, but definitely
27:52
Speaker 3: very exciting. An interesting stat that I saw on Twitter
27:57
Speaker 3: earlier today in games immediate after playing Texas A and M,
28:02
Speaker 3: their opponents have followed that up with a three and
28:05
Speaker 3: seventeen record.
28:06
Speaker 4: And one and six in conference play. So what does
28:09
Speaker 4: that mean? Pretty clearly, bucket ball wears teams out.
28:13
Speaker 3: So I think in tournament play, if we get to
28:17
Speaker 3: the Big Dance, it's going to be really difficult for
28:20
Speaker 3: teams to play back to back really tough games and
28:23
Speaker 3: follow up with not having a whole lot of preparation
28:26
Speaker 3: to take on this Texas A and M team is
28:28
Speaker 3: going to be really difficult for teams to adjust to.
28:31
Speaker 3: I think, so really excited to see what the boys
28:35
Speaker 3: can do. We're going to take a quick break and
28:37
Speaker 3: then we'll come back with the high school report. You're

31:32
Speaker 3: Fun Center Phone line is the head coach of the
31:35
Speaker 3: Montgomery Bears boys basketball team. Mister Jake McDonald, coach, thanks
31:38
Speaker 3: for joining me.
31:39
Speaker 12: Today, Yes, sir, I appreciate you having.
31:41
Speaker 4: Me, absolutely so.
31:43
Speaker 3: Montgomery definitely in the thick of a district title fight,
31:47
Speaker 3: a lot of solid teams in that district and all
31:50
Speaker 3: really close together. Your Bears seventeen and twelve on the
31:53
Speaker 3: season so far. So how would you gauge the performance?
31:57
Speaker 13: Oh man, it's been a how you described it as
32:01
Speaker 13: exactly what it is, A bunch of really good teams,
32:03
Speaker 13: a bunch of really close games. You know, we've had
32:07
Speaker 13: I think five of our six district games have been
32:12
Speaker 13: one or two possession games. But as far as the
32:15
Speaker 13: year as a whole, you know, just like everybody else,
32:18
Speaker 13: we've had ups and down, but you know, we've been
32:21
Speaker 13: on the right side of things a few more times,
32:25
Speaker 13: which is a good thing.
32:27
Speaker 3: And I noticed from last year it seemed like it
32:30
Speaker 3: was a really senior heavy squad, so had to replace
32:33
Speaker 3: a lot of those contributors from last season. Who are
32:36
Speaker 3: some of the players that have stepped up to fill
32:38
Speaker 3: those roles this year?
32:39
Speaker 12: Yeah, you're exactly right.
32:41
Speaker 13: We graduated ten guys.
32:43
Speaker 12: It was a really good senior class for US.
32:45
Speaker 13: But we've we have had guys step up, you know,
32:48
Speaker 13: a couple of them we're on the team. Last year
32:51
Speaker 13: Amari Hatchett was a starter for US and a and
32:55
Speaker 13: a really good player. And then Lucas Cornell and Mason
32:58
Speaker 13: McMurray both played, uh you know, kind of roll minutes
33:02
Speaker 13: for us.
33:02
Speaker 12: And then Chase Sheely was.
33:03
Speaker 13: A guy that was he was up and down, but
33:06
Speaker 13: he's really really really stepped up.
33:09
Speaker 8: Uh.
33:09
Speaker 13: You know, he had thirty point game last Thursday on
33:12
Speaker 13: the road. Uh, you know, and he's right hovering right
33:15
Speaker 13: around that twenty point game mark.
33:16
Speaker 12: And you know, several other guys.
33:19
Speaker 13: We've we've got a young man, uh sophomore uh named
33:24
Speaker 13: Devandre Walker. He's been really good for us. He started
33:28
Speaker 13: I believe twenty seven of the of the twenty nine
33:32
Speaker 13: games and uh pretty pretty close to a double double
33:35
Speaker 13: for us.
33:36
Speaker 12: And you know, Cashing, m J. Elevanny, they do a
33:40
Speaker 12: great job for us.
33:41
Speaker 13: And uh, we've got a couple of other seniors, Trey Bradd,
33:44
Speaker 13: Jacob King, Ronson Wodell uh kind of still out our roster,
33:48
Speaker 13: but everybody's kind of contributed. That's been the cool thing.
33:53
Speaker 13: You know, we can we can really have I know
33:55
Speaker 13: for a fact, we've had five different leading scorers in
33:58
Speaker 13: games this year, so it's been all hands on deck.
34:02
Speaker 3: So what would you say are some of the team's
34:03
Speaker 3: biggest strengths and weaknesses now that you've you know, gotten
34:05
Speaker 3: to know what these players are as compared to last year.
34:09
Speaker 13: Yeah, well, I mean, I would say the athleticism and
34:13
Speaker 13: physicality from Mote, from you know, almost all these teams
34:18
Speaker 13: is really high, U A and m consolidated Brenham Huntsville,
34:25
Speaker 13: those guys are so athletic, so physical, And then you
34:28
Speaker 13: know other end of the spectrum, you've got Lake Creek
34:31
Speaker 13: who's really really really skilled and they do everything well.
34:35
Speaker 13: And College Station kind of same thing, Uh, really skilled,
34:40
Speaker 13: really kind of intentional and deliberate and the way they play,
34:45
Speaker 13: and and Rudders, you know, they're young and they're scrappy.
34:48
Speaker 13: They're very scrappy as well.
34:50
Speaker 3: So didn't have any games over the weekend, as you know,
34:53
Speaker 3: most of the most of the state was taking the
34:57
Speaker 3: weekend off, not wanting to play, having brave the storm
35:01
Speaker 3: with the travel. But do have a game with Brenham
35:04
Speaker 3: coming up, So what are your expectations for that one.
35:07
Speaker 13: You know, we played them over there January second. It's
35:10
Speaker 13: one point game and we trailed most of the night
35:14
Speaker 13: and we're fortunate to get out of there with a win.
35:17
Speaker 13: But their coach does a coach, Andrews does a great job.
35:20
Speaker 13: And you know, they've got some really good players. Like
35:22
Speaker 13: I said, they're gonna they're gonna get after you defensively
35:24
Speaker 13: and then you know, offensively, it's it's kind of a
35:28
Speaker 13: track meet with those guys because they can really get
35:30
Speaker 13: up and down. So you know, we'll just have to
35:32
Speaker 13: make sure we take care of the ball and and
35:34
Speaker 13: make those guys earn it in.
35:35
Speaker 12: The half court.
35:36
Speaker 4: So we've established that.
35:38
Speaker 3: You know, this district, there's a lot of teams with
35:40
Speaker 3: a lot of very similar talent. All the top five
35:44
Speaker 3: in the district are all within two games of first place.
35:47
Speaker 3: So how how different is it in a year like
35:50
Speaker 3: this where everybody's so close together every week you got
35:52
Speaker 3: to bring your a game. How different is it compared
35:54
Speaker 3: to some years where the talent's a little more spread out.
35:57
Speaker 13: Well, I would just say it's it's kind of a
35:59
Speaker 13: kudos to to the coaching in the district. I think
36:02
Speaker 13: everybody's coached really well and kind of like you said,
36:07
Speaker 13: if you if you don't bring it every night, there
36:10
Speaker 13: is no uh, you almost get beat or you know,
36:14
Speaker 13: there is none of that. If you don't bring it,
36:16
Speaker 13: you get beat.
36:16
Speaker 14: Uh.
36:17
Speaker 13: And obviously in a district race, it's as tight as ours,
36:21
Speaker 13: you know, win winsor or so valuable. So you know,
36:25
Speaker 13: I think everybody kind of knows that. So I think
36:27
Speaker 13: that probably creates the battles we've been having as everybody
36:31
Speaker 13: knows how valuable and precious, Uh, these district games are
36:35
Speaker 13: with the narrow, narrow margin between the teams.
36:40
Speaker 3: So after Brenham, you got four district games, remaining, three
36:43
Speaker 3: of those on the road. What are your expectations for
36:45
Speaker 3: the home stretch of the season and then maybe going
36:48
Speaker 3: into postseason?
36:49
Speaker 13: Yes, no, I mean all those games are tough games,
36:52
Speaker 13: you know, and you know, you got to figure out
36:56
Speaker 13: a way to steal a couple on the road and
36:58
Speaker 13: uh kind of hold serve at home, and you know,
37:01
Speaker 13: you know, playing postseason basketball, you know, is almost a
37:07
Speaker 13: I mean, this is only a year three for me,
37:08
Speaker 13: but we want it to be the expectation and the norm.
37:12
Speaker 13: So you know, if we want that to take place.
37:14
Speaker 13: We've got to We've got to figure figure out a
37:16
Speaker 13: way to protect home court and still a couple on
37:18
Speaker 13: the road and play our best basketball, you.
37:20
Speaker 12: Know, in in late January early February.
37:22
Speaker 4: All right, coach, Well that's all I've got for you.

39:02
Speaker 4: school report.
39:04
Speaker 21: You still look black in dang quick, Jill.
39:07
Speaker 3: MLB news came out recently the Cleveland Guardians have signed
39:12
Speaker 3: a third basement Jose Ramirez to a seven year contract extension,
39:15
Speaker 3: so that's through the twenty thirty two season. Jose Ramirez
39:21
Speaker 3: has perennially been one of you know, the most underrated
39:25
Speaker 3: players in baseball. But you know, I think having a
39:27
Speaker 3: big contract like this and he's pretty highly rated on
39:31
Speaker 3: everybody's you know, top one hundred preseason things that they
39:33
Speaker 3: like to do.
39:34
Speaker 15: Uh.
39:34
Speaker 3: I think we can now say that Jose Ramirez is
39:37
Speaker 3: not underrated. And I know, Trey, you have no idea
39:39
Speaker 3: what I'm talking about right now. Nope, do you even
39:41
Speaker 3: know who Jose Ramirez is.
39:43
Speaker 5: A baseball player? Oh, Guardians, good.
39:46
Speaker 4: Job with the contact clues there.
39:49
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'd say he's probably one of the best third
39:51
Speaker 3: basement in baseball. Hit thirty homers last year with the
39:53
Speaker 3: two eighty three batting average. He has two hundred and
39:56
Speaker 3: eighty five career homers.
39:59
Speaker 4: And he is only.
40:02
Speaker 3: Thirty four or he'll be turning thirty four this season,
40:06
Speaker 3: so pretty solid stats. You don't see a whole lot
40:11
Speaker 3: of players get to the three hundred four hundred homer marks,
40:15
Speaker 3: and he is in line to do that, to do
40:18
Speaker 3: that this season if he stays healthy. Every year since
40:22
Speaker 3: twenty seventeen he has had at least seventeen homers, and
40:27
Speaker 3: the seventeen homer season was in twenty twenty when they
40:29
Speaker 3: were only fifty eight games.
40:31
Speaker 5: It's almost ten years, it's almost a decade.
40:33
Speaker 12: Yeah.
40:34
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's one of the most consistent players in the league.
40:36
Speaker 3: I think it was a really good move by Cleveland
40:38
Speaker 3: locking him up. And they're not usually a team that
40:40
Speaker 3: spends a lot of money, So happy to see that,
40:43
Speaker 3: Happy to see somebody other other than.
40:45
Speaker 4: The Dodgers spend some money.
40:47

Speaker 3: Bye, Welcome back to sports Talk here on the Zone
42:16
Speaker 3: eleven to fifty A ninety three point seven FM. Cayleb
42:20
Speaker 3: Rapley here filling in for Chip Howard on this Thursday afternoon.
42:24
Speaker 4: As Highway six has not.
42:26
Speaker 3: Started to get clogged up yet, we are not quite
42:29
Speaker 3: at quitting time, but the traffic is getting there as
42:32
Speaker 3: it usually is. We're gonna spend this segment with a
42:36
Speaker 3: little bit of NFL talk. There is one player in
42:39
Speaker 3: the Super Bowl that has a chance to join the
42:42
Speaker 3: multiple Super Bowl MVP's club. The members of that club
42:46
Speaker 3: currently are Tom Brady with five, Patrick Mahomes with three,
42:50
Speaker 3: Joe Montana with three, and then two each for Terry Bradshaw,
42:53
Speaker 3: Eli Manning and Bart Starr Trey. Do you know the
42:56
Speaker 3: one player that will be playing in the game that
42:58
Speaker 3: has a chance to get his seconds Super Bowl MVP?
43:06
Speaker 3: It's neither of the quarterbacks. Which team are the Seahawks? Okay,
43:11
Speaker 3: and it's obviously not Sam Darnold Cup.
43:14
Speaker 4: It is Cooper Cup. That's some ball knowledge there.
43:17
Speaker 3: Cooper Cup won it when the Rams beat the Bengals
43:21
Speaker 3: in the Super Bowl. Two touchdown catches in that game
43:27
Speaker 3: for Cup and has a shot to win his second.
43:31
Speaker 3: I think he would be the first. I think he'd
43:33
Speaker 3: be the only non quarterback to have multiple Super Bowl
43:36
Speaker 3: MVPs if he's able to pull that off, So that
43:38
Speaker 3: would be a pretty impressive stat Yeah.
43:40
Speaker 5: I don't really see him winning it over JSN.
43:43
Speaker 4: No, Well, it just depends, you know.
43:46
Speaker 3: I mean, Christian Kirk had a big game in the
43:48
Speaker 3: Texans win over the Steelers earlier in the playoffs, so
43:51
Speaker 3: you never you never really know, and Cooper Cup is
43:54
Speaker 3: definitely a player that's capable of having a huge game
43:58
Speaker 3: like that out of nowhere.
44:00
Speaker 5: I also think they're kind of milking the Sam Donald
44:04
Speaker 5: redemption story.
44:05
Speaker 4: So yeah, I think I mean win it.
44:06
Speaker 5: It's probably gonna be Donald.
44:09
Speaker 4: As long as he doesn't you know, thir or three
44:10
Speaker 4: picks or something. Yeah.
44:11
Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, So neither of these teams. I wasn't rooting
44:16
Speaker 3: for them, but I'm not mad about it. I mean,
44:19
Speaker 3: I know, the Patriots just had a huge dynasty, so
44:22
Speaker 3: you know, you'd prefer to have some new blood. But
44:24
Speaker 3: this feels like new blood because it's not Belichick or Brady,
44:28
Speaker 3: it's Mike Rabel and Drake May who are much more
44:30
Speaker 3: likable in my opinion, So I wouldn't hate to see
44:32
Speaker 3: them win one and then having the Sam Donald redemption
44:35
Speaker 3: story would be really cool. And former Aggie coach Clint
44:41
Speaker 3: Kubiak is on that coaching staff for the Seahawks, So
44:46
Speaker 3: I think I'm probably if I had to pick one,
44:48
Speaker 3: I think I would go with the Seahawks, and it
44:50
Speaker 3: would be cool to see them get redemption for their
44:53
Speaker 3: massive blunder.
44:54
Speaker 20: Right.
44:54
Speaker 4: Imagine this in Super Bowl forty seven, maybe.
44:58
Speaker 5: Something like fourth quarter. Patriots are in the lead, the
45:01
Speaker 5: Seahawks are driving, they get all the way down to
45:04
Speaker 5: the goal line. Do they run it or do they
45:06
Speaker 5: throw it?
45:09
Speaker 4: You know, it'd be whatever happens, it would be really
45:12
Speaker 4: really funny.
45:13
Speaker 5: Imagine this time they run the ball they should have
45:16
Speaker 5: and they get stuck. Yeah, I think that is that'd
45:18
Speaker 5: be cinema.
45:20
Speaker 3: That would definitely be the funniest outcome for sure. So
45:24
Speaker 3: some of the free agents that are available in the NFL,
45:28
Speaker 3: ESPN released their top fifty list and number one is
45:32
Speaker 3: a player that's had a lot of contract disputes recently
45:36
Speaker 3: over this past offseason, wasn't even sure if he was
45:39
Speaker 3: going to play the first couple weeks. Trey Hendrickson Bengals
45:43
Speaker 3: defensive end one of the best. Yeah, well that he
45:47
Speaker 3: wasn't a free agent. Then that was the final of
45:50
Speaker 3: his previous contract and the Bengals are terrible at contract negotiations,
45:57
Speaker 3: so he almost didn't play. But he's one of the
45:58
Speaker 3: best ed rushers in the league seventeen and a half
46:02
Speaker 3: sacks back in twenty twenty four, only played seven games
46:05
Speaker 3: this year, had four sacks, so any team. He would
46:11
Speaker 3: be an upgrade for any team on the defensive line
46:15
Speaker 3: unless the year of the Browns, and then he'd be
46:17
Speaker 3: your second best defensive ed dresher, But pretty much anybody
46:21
Speaker 3: else you would be the probably the most disruptive force
46:24
Speaker 3: on your team. George Pickens is also a free agent.
46:26
Speaker 3: Oh no, I know Cowboys fans hate to hear that.
46:30
Speaker 5: That's terrible.
46:30
Speaker 3: He was third in the NFL this year with one
46:33
Speaker 3: thy four hundred and twenty nine receiving yards. He could
46:35
Speaker 3: be franchise tagged though, which I mean seems pretty likely.
46:39
Speaker 3: He'll only be twenty five going into next season, so
46:42
Speaker 3: Cowboys are probably gonna want to hold on to him.
46:44
Speaker 5: If they can't perform CD.
46:45
Speaker 3: Didn't he Yeah, no, he was third in the NFL,
46:48
Speaker 3: so it was he can't let him go. A huge
46:50
Speaker 3: season for him, for him and that if if the
46:55
Speaker 3: Cowboys can, you know, keep him. That's one of the
46:58
Speaker 3: best receiving corps in the league. Just with him and CD,
47:01
Speaker 3: it doesn't matter who else you got. You can't really,
47:03
Speaker 3: you can't double team them both. Another interesting name on
47:07
Speaker 3: here Daniel Jones after his redemption arc with the Colts
47:12
Speaker 3: this year before his Achilles injury, so that could have
47:16
Speaker 3: that could impact what kind of deal he gets if
47:18
Speaker 3: teams are worried about his availability at the beginning of
47:21
Speaker 3: next year. But it just goes to show you that
47:25
Speaker 3: when quarterbacks get out of New York. They usually tend
47:28
Speaker 3: to do pretty good. I mean, we've seen it twice
47:30
Speaker 3: now with Daniel Jones.
47:31
Speaker 4: And Sam Darnold, one of them in the Super Bowl.
47:34
Speaker 3: And if Daniel Jones didn't get hurt, the Colts could
47:36
Speaker 3: be in the super Bowl and they were one of
47:37
Speaker 3: the hottest teams in football.
47:39
Speaker 5: I really hope he doesn't sign somewhere other than India.
47:41
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I would be cool with that. I
47:44
Speaker 3: think the Colts would do good to commit to him.
47:49
Speaker 3: I know they still have Anthony Richardson, or maybe they
47:51
Speaker 3: just you know, throw him like a two year deal
47:54
Speaker 3: and keep richesding around see if.
47:55
Speaker 4: He will develop a little bit.
47:56
Speaker 3: But Jones looks to be probably I think this is
48:00
Speaker 3: the highest level he's ever gonna play at. He'll be
48:02
Speaker 3: twenty nine going into next year, so I think he's
48:04
Speaker 3: got a couple more years of top tier performance from
48:07
Speaker 3: him and then he'll start going downhill. But yeah, I
48:11
Speaker 3: think any team I know, I know there are a
48:14
Speaker 3: lot of teams looking for a quarterback. Maybe the Cardinals
48:17
Speaker 3: go get them with the no head coach that they
48:20
Speaker 3: currently have. Maybe the Giants try to bring him back up.
48:22
Speaker 4: Just kidding, Jackson, Dirt Jackson. That would be really funny.
48:28
Speaker 3: The best, the best situation from a fans perspective would
48:34
Speaker 3: be he goes to the Jets. That would be the
48:37
Speaker 3: funniest for sure, going back to New York. But for
48:40
Speaker 3: the other team, I really hope that doesn't happen for
48:43
Speaker 3: his sake. Speaking of the Jets, Brice Hall running back
48:47
Speaker 3: as a free agent as well. He has averaged ninety
48:52
Speaker 3: total yards per game throughout his career. You know, he's
48:55
Speaker 3: one of the more versatile players in the league. Really
48:58
Speaker 3: good pass catcher out of the backfield. Some other names
49:03
Speaker 3: that we've got on here Alec Pierce receiver, also from
49:08
Speaker 3: the Colts. You know, he's shown big playability.
49:13
Speaker 14: Uh.
49:13
Speaker 3: He topped the one thousand yard receiving mark this year
49:16
Speaker 3: along with six touchdowns, which was, you know, his best
49:19
Speaker 3: year by far. I remember a couple of years ago,
49:22
Speaker 3: I think it was Anthony Richardon's senior uh not senior
49:25
Speaker 3: Anthony Richardson's rookie year, and I was the first time
49:29
Speaker 3: I heard Pierce's name, and it was because he had
49:32
Speaker 3: two like seventy yard catches and nothing else across three games.
49:36
Speaker 4: So he's always been a known big play threat. But
49:40
Speaker 4: this year he you know, put together some consistency.
49:45
Speaker 5: Yeah, going back to Bresee Hall. If you're the Jets
49:48
Speaker 5: and you don't resign him, what are we doing? I mean,
49:52
Speaker 5: gott to just be restarting.
49:53
Speaker 3: I think they should have traded. I think they should
49:55
Speaker 3: have traded for something, get some draft picks.
49:57
Speaker 5: What did they get for Sauce Gardner? They traded enough,
50:00
Speaker 5: they didn't really get anything back.
50:02
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just don't feel like defensive players demand quite
50:06
Speaker 3: as much draft pick wise. I think a running back
50:11
Speaker 3: in his prime, you know, I mean, running backs also
50:15
Speaker 3: don't get paid a whole lot.
50:16
Speaker 4: So it's kind of hard to say, but it'll be interesting.
50:21
Speaker 3: Some other free agents Mike Evans on the free agent
50:24
Speaker 3: market again. Only played eight games this year, which was
50:28
Speaker 3: the first time in his career that he did not
50:31
Speaker 3: top the one thousand yard receiving mark. He had eleven
50:35
Speaker 3: years in a row entering twenty twenty five, but couldn't
50:38
Speaker 3: do it. As you know, injuries kept him out most
50:41
Speaker 3: of the season. But he's a great red zone option,
50:43
Speaker 3: I mean, big target he chose. Mike Evans is still
50:47
Speaker 3: a great football player if he can stay healthy.
50:48
Speaker 5: He was on my fantasy team, and of course this
50:52
Speaker 5: is the one year he didn't perform as high, the
50:56
Speaker 5: one year I have him on my team. Yeah. Right.
51:00
Speaker 3: The quarterback class this year is you know, it's interesting
51:04
Speaker 3: that the draft, the quarterbacks in the draft, and the
51:07
Speaker 3: quarterbacks in free agency not not super strong. Daniel Jones
51:14
Speaker 3: was the highest ranked on ESPN's list. The next highest
51:17
Speaker 3: quarterback Malik Willis, who spent his season backing up Jordan Love.
51:21
Speaker 5: Isn't that the Packers back?
51:23
Speaker 21: Yes?
51:24
Speaker 3: Uh, he will be twenty seven years old going into
51:26
Speaker 3: the twenty twenty sixth season. He's still young, still room
51:30
Speaker 3: for development. He's looked pretty good when he's got when
51:33
Speaker 3: he's got starts for Green Bay at least.
51:35
Speaker 5: Right, he reminded me of kind of like a Tyler Huntley.
51:38
Speaker 5: Wasn't he the raven Yeah, the Ravens backup while and
51:41
Speaker 5: he kind of performed pretty well.
51:43
Speaker 14: Well.
51:43
Speaker 4: Tyler Huntley was just great value of mar Jackson.
51:46
Speaker 5: Yeah, I agree.
51:47
Speaker 4: He's the exact same style of quarterback, just not as good.
51:51
Speaker 3: Travis Etn another free agent running back, pretty solid, versatile
51:59
Speaker 3: running back, somewhere to Breeze Hall, just you know, not
52:02
Speaker 3: quite that level of talent out of Jacksonville. Pretty solid player.
52:07
Speaker 3: Isaiah Likely Ravens tight end.
52:09
Speaker 21: Uh.
52:10
Speaker 3: Most people will remember Isaiah Likely for the the catch
52:15
Speaker 3: in the back of the end zone against the Chiefs
52:16
Speaker 3: last year when he his toe was just barely out
52:20
Speaker 3: of bounds would have won the game. Khalil Mack is
52:23
Speaker 3: a free agent again. No, Khalil Mack, No, he's not
52:28
Speaker 3: Naggy who you're thinking of? Defens Dalen Mack.
52:33
Speaker 4: Yeah, he was good.
52:34
Speaker 3: I don't know if he's in the NFL anymore. He
52:36
Speaker 3: was pretty solid for a couple of years. Kyle Pitts
52:39
Speaker 3: Atlanta Falcons tight end. Fantasy football legend. Kyle Pitts nine
52:45
Speaker 3: hundred and twenty eight yards and five touchdowns this year,
52:48
Speaker 3: will be twenty five going into next season, so it's
52:51
Speaker 3: you know, teams are always looking to upgrade at the
52:53
Speaker 3: tight end spot. There's only a couple of elite tight
52:55
Speaker 3: ends in the league, and I think Pitts could be
52:57
Speaker 3: one of those if he continues on this upward trajectory.
53:01
Speaker 3: Kenneth Walker after the Super Bowl, the Seahawks running back
53:05
Speaker 3: will be a free agent. He's been pretty solid this year.
53:09
Speaker 3: Another Seahawk, Rashid's Shahed, which is always a hard name
53:13
Speaker 3: to say for me, former Saint Rashid Shahed, another receiver,
53:18
Speaker 3: Juwan Jennings, receiver Niners. So a lot of receivers and
53:22
Speaker 3: running backs on the market this year, so teams looking
53:25
Speaker 3: at yeah, teams looking to upgrade at the skill positions
53:30
Speaker 3: have a lot of options. So it will be interesting
53:32
Speaker 3: to see what happens there after the Super Bowl. But
53:35
Speaker 3: we've still got that game in this season before the
53:38
Speaker 3: free agency really gets underway.
53:41
Speaker 4: Do you have a pick for the Super Bowl?
53:43
Speaker 15: Well?
53:44
Speaker 5: Was Sam Donald a free agent pickup or was he traded?
53:46
Speaker 4: He's a free agent.
53:47
Speaker 5: You know, we're talking about free agents right now, saying
53:50
Speaker 5: there's not that many good people on the market, like
53:53
Speaker 5: quarterback wise. But Sam Donald now he's in the Super Bowl.
53:57
Speaker 3: Well, okay, Sam Donald was coming off of that really
53:59
Speaker 3: good year the Vikings. Though I don't know if I
54:02
Speaker 3: don't know if i'd say Daniel Jones Colts year was
54:04
Speaker 3: as good as Sam.
54:05
Speaker 4: Darnold Vikings year.
54:07
Speaker 3: My super Bowl pick, which I mean, we still got
54:11
Speaker 3: another week and a half to think about it. I
54:14
Speaker 3: always forget that there's that bye week in between conference
54:17
Speaker 3: championships and the Super Bowl.
54:18
Speaker 5: I know, the new England's defense is very good, but
54:22
Speaker 5: so Seattle's obviously hasn't. Drake May kind of had a
54:26
Speaker 5: lower performance playoffs.
54:28
Speaker 3: Well, they've also had to play in a lot of weather.
54:31
Speaker 3: Against the Broncos. You know, that game was really sloppy.
54:35
Speaker 3: Ten to seven was the final score there. But in
54:39
Speaker 3: the playoffs May has thrown for two hundred and sixty
54:42
Speaker 3: eight yards against the Chargers, one hundred and seventy nine
54:45
Speaker 3: yards and three touchdowns against the Texans, and then against Denver,
54:49
Speaker 3: like I said, he only threw for eighty six yards,
54:51
Speaker 3: no touchdowns, no interceptions. So the team didn't really need
54:55
Speaker 3: him to do a whole lot though, to be fair,
54:58
Speaker 3: and he's always you know, true we did in the
55:01
Speaker 3: ground game. He's got one hundred and forty one yards
55:04
Speaker 3: across the three games in the playoffs, and that one
55:07
Speaker 3: touchdown which was the Patriots only touchdown against the Broncos
55:11
Speaker 3: on I think it was like a six yard run
55:12
Speaker 3: for him. So he's he's a really dangerous dual threat quarterback.
55:17
Speaker 3: I think he is the better quarterback in this game.
55:20
Speaker 3: I don't know if he'll play better just because Donald
55:23
Speaker 3: does have more experience, he's got more weapons, I feel like,
55:26
Speaker 3: oh yeah, I could see that Jackson, I mean Jackson
55:30
Speaker 3: Smith and Jigba, Cooper Cup, Kenneth Walker.
55:34
Speaker 4: That's a pretty solid skill position group there for Donald.
55:37
Speaker 4: So we'll be interesting to see.
55:40
Speaker 3: But you know, there's another week and a half to
55:42
Speaker 3: talk about that we're not sure going to go to
55:43
Speaker 3: in depth there. We're gonna take another break and then
