• 2:53
  Speaker 2: in and post production and like edit out me touching
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: the microphone. But like this is live to tape. We're
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: just raw, going raw run the thing. So in a
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: normal game week, even though it's game week, in a
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: normal game week, starting next week, after you play a game,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: this would be our Sunday recap, and then Thursday we
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: will preview. Thursday we preview, and because this is the
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: first week, obviously nothing this past weekend. But what we're
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: going to do is talk about the expanse of what
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: college football has become. The significance. I don't think you
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: could over I don't think you could over talk over
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: and that's not what I don't think you could spend
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: too much time talking about the historical significance of what
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: is about to happen. It is, it is unbelievable. And
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: I you know, I went over to the Beanie Bowl
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: on Friday, went to the Beanie Bowl and I stayed
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: on the sideline, walked in through the tunnel. Team was
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: already going, and I looked I was in the Enzo
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: and I looked down the sideline and this is like
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: true game, right, this is as close to a dress
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: rehearsal game as you're going to have. Rich's got the
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: headset on. Rich's walking the sideline, and I'm just looking
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: at it, going like this is really happening, Like he's back,
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: like I don't know if like last time we were
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: on the show and I talked about Pat White walking
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: around the stadium with this weighted vesta, and then I'm
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: looking at Rich down the sideline and here's Rich Rodriguez
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: coaching the Mountaineer football team.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: I'm seventeen years later.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: Seventeen years later. It's kind of like it's it's stuff
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: that happens in movies. You know. They put the graphic
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: up and they go like it's black screen, white letters,
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: and says seventeen years later, and then it dissolves in
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: and here's like Rich walking down the sideline.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Rich.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: If this were a movie, they would make Rich look
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: older than seventeen years because he still looks like Rich
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: walking up and downside doesn't look like seventeen years later.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: It really doesn't. But I'm watching him going like, this
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: is this is on, this is happening. Refs are out there,
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: he's having a conversation with the referees moving. You know,
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: he's rich, Rich being rich.
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: And that was the Beanie bull. You know, stands there
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: weren't six.
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: There's a fifty people in there.
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: Sixty yeah, yeah, five, it'll be.
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: But they had everything going. The music was on, all
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: the signage in the stadium was on. Everything was like,
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: you know, it was like for real, except it wasn't
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: for real. And but that to me was a moment.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: I had two moments last week, the pet plight and
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: then the Rich walking on the sideline. And I say
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: all of that because it will only go to like
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: the fiftieth power of that on Saturday when they actually
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: do come onto the field and Rich is going to
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: run out there and the place will be going bananas.
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: And it's a moment that has never existed in the
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: history of Mountaineer football in which obviously a coach comes
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: back and has gained not only just this unbelievable amount
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: of attention here in state, but nationally. This weekend, you
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: can see some things. You know, Rich is rich Man,
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: Like Ross Dellinger wrote a big time story about Rich's
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: return last week. Kirk Herb Street, you know, called West
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: Virginia's best head coach new higher in the off season.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: You know, you had Belichick in there among others, and
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: he said Rich Rich is the best new hire among
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: these coaches. So the momentum and the push. You know,
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: in the radio, we use a VU meter, right and
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: what we used to before analytic digital, But anyway, the
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: meter would go like this, like Rich makes the needle
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: move before you ever play a game.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: Do you ever see the movie Dodgeball?
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: With the ansiences, do you believe in unlikelihoods? I thought
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: a lot about this, and I'm going to write about
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: it this week, but Thomas Wolfe has The novel was
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: published posthumously in nineteen forty where the famous line you
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: can't go home again, And it's the story of George
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: Weber who left an imaginary town. Left the town and
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: was imaginary is actually Asheville, North Carolina was where it was,
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: and he goes away and he writes about his hometown
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: and then he comes back bread years later and he
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: finds that things have changed, the people have changed, the
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: circumstances have changed, He's changed. So the point being that
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: things are always changing and they're never going to be
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: what they were. So that's just the reality. So physically
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: you can go home again. We know that with Richard
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: Riguez he has come back. But what is it going
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: to be to me? This is a fascinating story and
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: it starts on Saturday. Is that will he be accepted
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: back in? Will he have success? How will this story
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: play out? And unlike a lot of situations, like if
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: you went back to your hometown in Iowa, it'd be
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: like wow, things are different, right, so it's not like
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: it was. You could you'll be able to quantify this
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: because if he has success, then it will be he'll be,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: he'll be welcomed, people will celebrate it. Oh, so you
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: can go home. You can go home if you meet
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: these certain metrics. So to me, I'll listen to you
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: Wednesday when you give us some stuff on Robert Morris.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: I don't care about Robert. I'm not gonna spend a
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: lot of time worrying about Robert Morris.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: But the lead, well, we got to take a shot
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: of Robert Morris. I mean, they've they've been respectful in
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: their preparation for the game. I'm free to devalue them
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: as kind of I didn't.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: I don't care. The lead will be Saturday, or should
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: be after the game. At you know, five thirty, Rich Rodriguez,
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: and an unlikely return to a Mountaineer field after a
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: seven year absence, scored his first victory of the return
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: trip with a forty nine to fourteen victory over Robert Morris.
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: Period next paragraph right, and I'm not even getting to
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: the game yet, Rodriguez. Rodriguez said after the game quote,
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: it was surreal being back on the sidelines with the Mountaineers.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: I'm just happy we were able to have a victory
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: for the fans. Period. That's the story. Saturday there's a
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: lot of other angles, quarterback, everything else. That's the story.
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I totally agree with you. It's it's wild. Nostalgs
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: is really powerful as all. Yeah, and it's not just
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: those of us, and I'm including fans in that that
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: were around for the first run and all the good
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: feelings that were generated by all the wins over five,
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: O six and oh seven in particular. It's just amazing
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: that we're that we're here to this game day. That's
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: what's wild, because it, first of all, it feels like
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: the last time West Virginia took the field was about
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: seventeen years ago.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: Doesn't that mean that's like a whole lifetime really? Really,
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: it's who was the last game what? So's it's interesting.
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: It's this weird moment in time where I think, because
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: it's Rich and we've all seen Rich as the head coach,
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: it's a new coach, but it's not a new coach.
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: But we haven't got to the first game yet, right,
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: so all that's kind of wrapped into this as well.
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: But that nostalgia isn't just from the Mountaineer fan base,
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: and you said it, Tony, there's nostalgia among the national
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: media and that's why, Hope, I think you're right. This
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: is a fascinating potential story however it goes. But if
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: success comes, and certainly that could be a whole podcast
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: what defines success in this second run? But if big
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: time success comes, this is going to be an unbelievably
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: massive story. Right, It's already become a national story and
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: you haven't played a game yet, And so I also
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: think that's why this schedule sets up really nice, because
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: you're one hundred percent right on what the story is
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: now pregame and postgame, and theoretically you should go out
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: and take care of an opponent pretty easily and you're
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: able to sell clebrate that return, rather than what you
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: had to do last year, where you bring a national
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: title contender in here and it deflates the balloon before
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: you even get started. So I'm totally with you on
• 11:09
  Speaker 4: what the story is, and I'm fascinated to watch this
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: game one in particular return with a lot more important
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: games coming up after it.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: But you get it started Saturday.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: And I'm also thrilled that it is Robert Morris that
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: West Virginia is opening with for the first time, we
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: have some sensibility in your scheduling rather than just running
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: straight into a brick wall, which would be just really detrimental.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: I think to the process of this rebuild, reload, whatever
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: you want to call it, to play a team that
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: you're going to be heavily favored to beat, to get
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: your bearings about you, because it's going to be a ladder.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: This week you're at home against a team you should
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: beat next week an improved team, but now you're going
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: to do it away from your home. And then the
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: third week here you go your one power for non
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: conference opponent, which happens to be your most bit of rival,
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: and you know the whole storyline to that. So I
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: really like the way this is going to set up.
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: So right now, this week over at the football building,
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: Rich and staff, learning from what they did last year
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: at Jacksonville State, will really be trying to focus on
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: let's make this simple stupid, so that we don't make
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: these guys paralysis by analysis when they get on the
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: field and they're thinking, Okay, what am I doing here?
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: They're going to break this thing down, base this thing down,
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: and just say okay, we do this well, let's do
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: this now, and then we can continue to add to it.
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: So that's going to be the big thing this week
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: is being judicious, not what the coaches know, but what
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: can the kids execute and then you go from there.
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: You know, I have put my game day operations hat
• 12:46
  Speaker 4: well behind me. It's been stored in the closet for
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: a number of years. Yeah, so I appreciate the game
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: day operations and know what an undertaking it is for
• 12:56
  Speaker 4: the whole crew that goes through that. But for the
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: most part, since I've left, we've we've been doing our
• 13:01
  Speaker 4: broadcast and I've been worried about that and talking about
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: the team. I haven't worried much about the the pregame stuff.
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: I can't wait to see what the video is. How
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: about the highlights that are going to be mixed into
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: that thing?
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: Would love to see the inflatable helmet come back. I
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: note won't love that.
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: Is it somewhere that's a that's a great question. That
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: is a great question, Like someone should do that one,
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: Like where literally is the inflatable helmet?
• 13:26
  Speaker 4: Well? One of my I think I've probably told this
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: story for one of my most vivid memories, and I
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: have a lot of them from my time with with
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: Rich right, we can do stories all day long. But
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: I can vividly remember the first game when the smoke
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: machine was there in the in the tunnel and there
• 13:40
  Speaker 4: was a the smoke machine was a science there. Hop
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: you don't just turn the thing on it, you know.
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: I had to play into the wind and where it
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: was taking it and was it going off too far?
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: Was it filling up too much? And I can vividly
• 13:52
  Speaker 4: remember the first game being down there when we had
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: the smoke turned on, and I mean it was it
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: was billowing inside that helmet and it was thick, and
• 13:59
  Speaker 4: I I can still picture it like it just happened.
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: Rich steps through it and it's almost as if it
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: was a curtain and he had to pull it back
• 14:06
  Speaker 4: and all I could see was if you're watching video,
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: was like he comes, So are we ready to go yet?
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: Let's go. I want to do.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: There the smoke. Let's go.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: Let's go.
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: So I know, the helmet and the smoke won't be back,
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: but I will. I will have a good memory on
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: Saturday when I see Rich take the field and remember
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: the that time.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a ton There's so much that goes on,
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: as you will know, just to get that stadium up
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: and running again. I mean you use it six or
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: seven times in a year. But I walk around there
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: every single day and I've been watching literally for weeks now,
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: the the man power that it takes to get that
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: thing up and running. I mean there's been forklifts buzzing
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: around there bringing in beer and water and food and
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: all kinds of things that you just gotta and it's amazing. Again,
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: it only happens six or seven times in a year,
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: but it is a massive infrastructure to get up and
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: running because you have to you get only six chances, right,
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: and you know, like they're looking at this thing. Unfortunately
• 15:06

  Speaker 2: Speaking of bringing it and speaking of rain in Ireland,
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: st Range it rained.
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: Rains every day in Ireland, by the way.
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it rained this this past Saturday. That was a
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: pretty good lid lifter, pretty good lift lidlifter.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: Did you see the crowd? O? The crowd was great.
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: As first reported on this program, there are places other
• 25:17
  Speaker 4: than SEC schools and Big Ten where football is important
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: to people.
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was.
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: You couldn't ask for more back.
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: Those two fan bases should be commended. That was an
• 25:27
  Speaker 4: incredible turnout.
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: You know what's interesting. I was surprised that they both
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: play again this week.
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and they got Iowa Iowa State.
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: No no, no, no, next week. They both got games
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: they should they should win. But see one, why did
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: I see?
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: Why in the heck?
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: Was? I think it was a week three for i
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: That was? I mean that game started out a bit slow,
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: but it got really interesting.
• 25:48
  Speaker 4: And yeah, you can tell first game in stas being
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: made but.
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: Pulled out.
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: Rock made a playoff man. Tough way to start your conference.
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: Seasonal jeez, but think about it. So but it's early,
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: but that gives Iowa State a huge advantage. I mean,
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: their schedule is not that tough by conference standard, and
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: they've already got to win against Kansas State. They got
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: a leg up early.
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: Well, that's what we talked about going into that game.
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: If you're the winner of that game, you're thrilled for
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: a lot of different reasons. But if you're the if
• 26:19
  Speaker 4: you lose that game, now it's the the world's crashing
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: in on you, and it's really just game one again.
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: We've been there.
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: But I think from a leak perspective too, I'm interested
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: to how that how that affects it because that's two
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: ranked teams that one now is knocked out of the
• 26:32
  Speaker 4: rankings there, and that's so you're gonna have to Kansas
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: State is going to have to battle that to get
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: back in here. That's a that's a tough way to
• 26:38
  Speaker 4: start if you lose that.
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: And also it's gonna be tough at the Johnson family
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: Thanksgiving dinner. Holy hell did you see that? Yeah, talking
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: about Avery Johnson's dad and Avery Johnson's brother would have.
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: Been so much better if it was Avery's It would
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: have been so much better if it was Avery's dad
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: and Avery's brother fighting someone else. But when you filed
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: out that it was the father and the on fighting
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: against each other. Sweet mercy. Yeah, my bad. O. Iowa
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: State South Dakota this weekend. But to your point about
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: Iowa State's schedule coming up, they are at Arkansas State Okay,
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: they're home to Arizona, They're at Cincinnati, They're at Colorado, Okay,
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: they're home to BYU, They're home to Arizona State, They're
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: at TCU. Tough one, they're home to Kansas, and they
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: are at Oklahoma State. Like very doable.
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, in terms of I mean, no game, you never
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: know what's gonna happen. No game is easy. But in
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: terms of what your schedule could be, that's about as
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: good as you could hope for in a conference schedule. Brand.
• 27:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they have a ton that's a major rebuild. That's
• 27:40
  Speaker 4: why it was such a good win for them. Their
• 27:41
  Speaker 4: offensive line really struggled early. They had trouble running the football.
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: Their defense looks like it was baby back to Iowa
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: State standards. Missing those two receivers though, that was a
• 27:50
  Speaker 4: massive hit for them. So I'm interested to see where
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: they go. This is one game. There's a lot of seasons,
• 27:55
  Speaker 4: a lot of seasons.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: Gutsy call on fourth and three late, go win the game,
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: right right?
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: Well, yeah, you'd already missed a field goal as bad
• 28:04
  Speaker 4: weather conditions, so kicking probably would have been an adventure.
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: You weren't you weren't having great success running it straight ahead.
• 28:09
  Speaker 4: So you put the ball in the hands of your
• 28:11
  Speaker 4: best player, who's your quarterback, and let him make a decision.
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: And he did made a play. Don't win the game?
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: He made a play.
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: Were you doing a little Conley?
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I got I got a little something, You got
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: a little something something. Let's do it. So I checked
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: the numbers. We'll just go right to the numbers. There
• 28:24

  Speaker 2: do provide value beyond numbers, complete service, public accounting and
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: what I like outsourcing your accounting and your CFO services.
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: You know, we've talked recently here on three guys maybe
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: outsource seen some of Hoppy's things.
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: Hey, now we're good.
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: Now outsource Hoppy right now, get a Hoppy avatar source.
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: So that's what they do at Conley's CPA Group.
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: What just happened?
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: Outsourcing your CFO and your accounting services? Outsourcing is really big?
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: Did I just get Nah? It's all right?
• 29:22
  Speaker 4: I'm the man outsource hoppy. Now, if we had accounting duties,
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: I would say that's outsource as we have.
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: We do as we have, we do outsourced.
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: And I know that the it's coming up. We have
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: to trim the roster in the NFL. I didn't by
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: about a third. I didn't know you were trimming this
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: roster as well.
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: Hey, listen, nothing wrong with practice squad. Hot Hey, nothing
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: wrong with the practice squad. You'll be all right.
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: By the way, I'm checking that. I'm obsessed by checking
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: that and just hoping against hope that some of these
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: mountaineers make it.
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: I know from Malba, keeping our fingers crossed for all
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: of them. But obviously Garrett Green would be an unbelievable
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: crazy story.
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: I had an awesome catch the other night, didn't he Yeah,
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: can say this end zone.
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: I'll say this now, And I'm hoping I think Garrett
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: I'm not gonna say. I hope at worst he's a
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: practice squad guy. But I don't know what's gonna happen.
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: But Neil Brown said this a year ago. He said
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: a year ago, during the season, he said Garrett Creen
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: will play in the National Football League. He told me
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: he said, whether it's a quarterback or a different position,
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: he will be on an NFL roster. Neil told me
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: that he was right. He gonna make it.
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: He's at a great, great summer camp here.
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: Just start. That's a big cut that goes from like
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: ninety to fifty four or something. It's the big cut.
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: I mean, at worst, at worst, he helped himself with
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: another team to pick him up, to put him on
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: the pressure squad because they'll look at him and go like,
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: this guy's like raw, and he can go like, let's
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: go do this the great story. All right, what do
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: you got present stats?
• 30:50
  Speaker 4: Lets a little offensive line? Because of all the things
• 30:53
  Speaker 4: we're watching on Saturday, I still hop I come back
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: to this offensive line and on the sliding gale spectrum, what's.
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: It going to be?
• 31:01
  Speaker 4: From from your not any good to your elite? Where
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: does this line fall? Just a massive part of this
• 31:08
  Speaker 4: year's success or lack thereof, is going to be this
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: offensive line. So I was looking back at it again
• 31:13
  Speaker 4: and I think we know this, but when I was,
• 31:15
  Speaker 4: when I was putting the numbers to it, it, man,
• 31:18
  Speaker 4: it really jumped out. Let's look at the I'll give
• 31:21
  Speaker 4: you a projected starting five here. Okay, okay, we'll see
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: if it's confirmed. But let's just do a projected starting five,
• 31:26
  Speaker 4: and let's look at the snaps that these guys have played.
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: The returning snaps good for the projected starting lineup along
• 31:34
  Speaker 4: the offensive line doing snaps or games snaps all right,
• 31:38
  Speaker 4: snaps played. Tykes Crawford played ten snaps last season. He's
• 31:46
  Speaker 4: played five seasons of college football and only once played
• 31:49
  Speaker 4: more than one hundred and fifty five snaps in a season.
• 31:53
  Speaker 4: So he has six hundred and forty three career snaps
• 31:55
  Speaker 4: and fifty one percent of those came to the twenty
• 31:58
  Speaker 4: twenty three season, but ten laston.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: Chemo six forty three. We're going on in the first time.
• 32:04
  Speaker 4: I'm going snaps played last season ten Tyke S Crawford
• 32:07
  Speaker 4: all right. Keemo had zero snaps played along the offensive
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: line last year because he was a defensive lineman. He's
• 32:15
  Speaker 4: moved back over the offensive side. He's played sixty three
• 32:17
  Speaker 4: career snaps, but zero last year, zero last year.
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: Pretty easy math to do. Through the first year.
• 32:24
  Speaker 4: The d lineman Nick Cray was on the WV roster
• 32:27
  Speaker 4: last year, played five offensive snaps. All stats courtesy of
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: Pro Football Focused.
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: By the way, so three or first, somebody's wrong, scream
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: with them. So for your first three, the average snaps
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: is five fifteen.
• 32:39
  Speaker 4: Yes, correct, Now you take a big jump forward. Landon
• 32:42
  Speaker 4: Livingston played eighty six.
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: Snaps last year. Ain't that many?
• 32:47
  Speaker 4: One twenty four in his entire career. The only guy
• 32:51
  Speaker 4: among the projected starting five here that's played a bunch
• 32:54
  Speaker 4: is Walter Young Bear. He played a ton of tells,
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: eight hundred and seventy four snaps last year, over one
• 33:02
  Speaker 4: thousand in his career. So if you look at these,
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: if you exclude Young Bear for a second, do the
• 33:08
  Speaker 4: number there eighty six five plus ten.
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: One hundred and one divided by four twenty five snaps.
• 33:14
  Speaker 4: Each for four of your offensive linemen, even if you
• 33:18
  Speaker 4: take Young Bear, even if you take Young Bear at
• 33:22
  Speaker 4: eight seventy four, go through some of these career snaps.
• 33:25
  Speaker 4: He's played eleven hundred career snaps. You've got eight hundred
• 33:29
  Speaker 4: and sixty career snaps for the other four, so basically
• 33:34
  Speaker 4: less than two thousand if you put all five together
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: in career snaps. Just listen to what you've had over
• 33:40
  Speaker 4: the past five years at w along the offensive line.
• 33:43
  Speaker 4: Wyatt Milan played twenty nine hundred, Nick Malone played fourteen hundred,
• 33:49
  Speaker 4: Thomas Remac two thousand and seventy one, Yates three thousand,
• 33:54
  Speaker 4: six hundred and thirty two Hubbard nineteen hundred, and Zach
• 33:58
  Speaker 4: Fraser thirty two hundred. So just because you've played Snaps
• 34:03
  Speaker 4: doesn't guarantee you're going to be good, and vice versa.
• 34:05
  Speaker 4: Just because you haven't played doesn't mean you can't be good.
• 34:08
  Speaker 4: But the inexperience, and we know that's the story of
• 34:11
  Speaker 4: this team, Hobby, these seventy new guys, the inexperience is
• 34:15
  Speaker 4: the story. With an offensive line that needs to be good,
• 34:19
  Speaker 4: you have a lot of inexperience there. So I'm anxious
• 34:22
  Speaker 4: to see how this unit works together and individually, which
• 34:25
  Speaker 4: of these guys emerge to turn out to be really
• 34:28
  Speaker 4: good players. And maybe we're talking in a couple of
• 34:30
  Speaker 4: years about these guys now at fifteen hundred career Snaps.
• 34:32
  Speaker 4: But as you sit today and you go into this
• 34:34
  Speaker 4: first game, there's a lot of inexperience along that offensive line.
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: You know, Brad, that is an incredibly important point because
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: what do we tend to talk about Jeem White like
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: he's a player, he's a guy. He's a guy. Well,
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: he's a guy. And what's quarterback and has a quarterback? Right? Well, well,
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: if the quarterback has zero point five seconds, it's a
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: lot different than the quarterback has three seconds. If Jaheim
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: White has a space and gets two yards past the
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: line as opposed to somebody hits them in the backfield.
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: So you can be as talented as you wish, but
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: if you don't have those guys who have largely inexperienced
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: from last year, you got a problem.
• 35:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah, So it's another point to why this schedule is
• 35:11
  Speaker 4: a nice start. You're going to have guys here that
• 35:14
  Speaker 4: athletically in size should have the advantage over Robert Morris
• 35:17
  Speaker 4: to get their feet wet and try and work out.
• 35:19
  Speaker 4: So you're trying to ask guys not just to individually
• 35:22
  Speaker 4: be good against the guy across from you, but tell me,
• 35:24
  Speaker 4: how many times do we say it when we go
• 35:25
  Speaker 4: back and watch film, that everything can look good one guy, missus,
• 35:29
  Speaker 4: his block blows the whole thing up. It's incredibly hard
• 35:31
  Speaker 4: to get everybody in sync. And this is just an
• 35:33
  Speaker 4: inexperienced group of offensive linemen here, so anxious to watch
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: them get started in their careers.
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: Here the thought I had passed through me this weekend
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: when trying to figure out exactly what it is that
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: we're dealing with here. This to me is as close
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: as you can get in the college game to an
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: NFL expansion team. So in the NFL, when they bring
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: in a new franchise, players have to come from other teams. Well,
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: what do you have at West virgin You've got seventy
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: plus new guys, right, and you have all tons of
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: transfers that have come in. So what's that normally mean? Well, unfortunately,
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: expansion teams don't do well. Carolina Panthers had the best
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: expansion season of like expansion teams, they went seven and
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: nine their first year. Most teams huddle around two and
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: a half wins three wins as expansion teams like Jacksonville
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: I think won four in their first year as a franchise.
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: So again, it's not apples, and it's not apples and apples.
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: It's more apples and oranges. But you get the point
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: that whenever you bring a bunch of new people together,
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: a new staff together, history says, And I know we
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: want to move history ahead, history says. It just takes time.
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: And you know another thing is you have to have
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: really really good players to be really really successful. That's
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: normally how it works. Just look at West Virginia University
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: when it's had its great teams, they've had superb players
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: who play in the National Football League. And so you
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: take a look at that eighty eight and that eighty
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: nine team that had really great runs loaded with NFL guys.
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: The Pat White teams that we oftentimes talk about, they
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: had a bunch of guys that played in the league.
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: Stevie Slat, Oen Schmidt, Pat White, Darius Ramont, among others.
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: I just gave you four there that all had we
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: were on the offensive side. And so if you do
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: the math, at this point, this roster is is not bleeding.
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: Hey mythical on draft boards in the NFL for this
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: coming year, there's not a ton of guys on that list.
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: So realistically, you're saying, like, Okay, you're gonna have to
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: super overachieve according to the experts to have success. That's
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: the reality of it. I don't like to hear it,
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: but that's the reality of it. Not to say it's
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: gonna happ but that's the realistic approach.
• 38:01
  Speaker 4: So then mix in agbo Isosa and Carson Lee or
• 38:05
  Speaker 4: guys you're probably going to see as well mixed into
• 38:07
  Speaker 4: this line. So how does this group come together? And
• 38:09
  Speaker 4: then hop that sliding scale of where is this offensive
• 38:13
  Speaker 4: line as a unit in terms of how good are
• 38:15
  Speaker 4: they versus how much does the system and the fast
• 38:19
  Speaker 4: tempo help you?
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: Right?
• 38:20
  Speaker 4: I mean that's part of why you're doing this is
• 38:21
  Speaker 4: to gain an edge rather than just trying to line
• 38:24
  Speaker 4: up and smack the guy in front of you. You're
• 38:26
  Speaker 4: going to try not so much trickeration, but you're going
• 38:28
  Speaker 4: to hope the system and the speed helps you as well.
• 38:31
  Speaker 4: So how does that factor into this and that's going
• 38:33
  Speaker 4: to what makes the offense go here?
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's really a really important stat brand. Well done.
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and again we go back to that offensive line
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: at WVU that recently was here, so a year ago.
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: It was before Zach with Zach was here, I remember
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: for numbers and Dana was here. It stood in my
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: head it was like seventy at seventy combined starts. It
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: might have been when Neil was just starting. It was
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: like seventy star and you would look at the other
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: teams like Oklahoma getting ready to play Oklahoma State, and
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: they're about in like three hundred plus starts and you're
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: going like, well, this isn't math. And then eventually and
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: two years later, like West Virginia was there at that
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: like three hundred isshes and those are to be really
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: good offensive line.
• 39:15
  Speaker 4: Those career snap numbers I just gave you for guys.
• 39:17
  Speaker 4: I mean, I think we know that, but maybe you
• 39:19
  Speaker 4: forget how much football those guys played. And that's that
• 39:22
  Speaker 4: famous Zach Frasier. We started first offensive lineman the star
• 39:25
  Speaker 4: as a true freshman in forty years at least forty years.
• 39:27
  Speaker 4: Kept saying that, and then what happened, well following year,
• 39:29
  Speaker 4: then Wyatt Myelin comes in and does the same thing,
• 39:31
  Speaker 4: and then you had all these guys cycle through. That's
• 39:33
  Speaker 4: a lot of career snaps that you had along that line.
• 39:36
  Speaker 4: Now you're just in that rebuilding phase and which of
• 39:39
  Speaker 4: these guys step forth and turn into players down the line?
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: Three guys before the game is brought to us in
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: part by the fine folks at lou Wendell. They're celebrating
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: their fortieth anniversary. They just happened to be the biggest

• 40:20
  Speaker 2: going through the river system, maybe some few creeks, a
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: few runs, things like that, certainly do stop by a
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: Tutor's biscuit world. They flourish when it comes to football season.
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: And right now they've got those three new barbecue sauces
• 40:34

• 40:36
  Speaker 2: ghost pepper, but they do have honey Saracha, Carolina Gold
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: and sweet Terioki. They've all just debuted. And you put
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: a little bit of that honey saracha on that pulled pork.
• 40:51

• 41:25

• 45:03
  Speaker 2: to happen. I know we're gonna talk high school football
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: and we're gonna do Unfortunately, probably no one will do

  Speaker 2: this though, and will probably I will try to get
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: someone for the next time.
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: We're gonna talk mountin Neir football too.
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: Of course that goes with it, but unfortunately no one's
• 45:15
  Speaker 2: going to try to do it.
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: And then there we no elephants there because we kept
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: away by the over two and a half.
• 45:19
  Speaker 2: So you often accused me of getting in some rabbit holes,
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: like on YouTube of the Small Pirate, I got in this,
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: I got into the algorithm this weekend. We're this lion,
• 45:31
  Speaker 2: this lion, we're hoppy. Hoppy took one of these things.
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: He was out there and his lion, the lion, this
• 45:39
  Speaker 2: is a wild dogs started messing with the lioness. So okay,
• 45:43
  Speaker 2: you want to play that game. And they're like huddenly
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: getting out like hys, like those defensive back so like
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: they were like being cornerbacks on the lions.
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: And cornerbacks are like ya just d.
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and they always think they're always giving you this
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: like when it passing, Yeah, well I got that fake
• 46:16
  Speaker 2: wide receivers always say that about those guys. Anyway, So
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: his lion is they're messing with her, that's that right, Okay,
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: So she she goes into this like water pond where
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: they can't get her because they're not going in there
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: to get They're not going to go in low against
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: her because she's in the water. That right goes over
• 46:34
  Speaker 2: and gets the main lion like from what like the
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: male the big old head got that hair a He comes,
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: he comes back in the next day, he comes in,
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: the next day, he goes into that dog den and
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: he gets himself a dog. And you know, I hate hyenas,
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: like I absolutely despise hyenas, like I'd like to kill
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: them all right, wow, machine gun their ass. Anyway, he
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: gets a dog by the neck and he just starts
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: going rag doll with that thing.
• 47:08
  Speaker 3: And my other dogs running there. They had a little
• 47:11
  Speaker 3: bit different demeter than no, no, no, no, we're good
• 47:16
  Speaker 3: like we're good like we'll be leaving now.
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So here's your lesson. Don't ever mess with a lioness,
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: right because the lion king don't come.
• 47:28
  Speaker 4: It will get a little better that the king went
• 47:30
  Speaker 4: in the next day.
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: Next next morning. Oh is that right? Harry had a
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: little situation here last night, and I loved it because
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: I knew those teeth were right in that dog's neck.
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: What are you doing all right? Yeah?
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: Really, I told you, I told you I went down
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: the rabbit hole? How many? Heck? Right, I need a
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: break something, I needed a break. I was doing those
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: by on notes on the Mountaineer football players into my charts.
• 48:07
  Speaker 2: There's seventy guys. I mean, this is like you got
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: a lot to learn. It was like taking a final exam.
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: I mean, some of these guys have been like the
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: nineteen schools and trying to figure that all out.
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: What are you gonna do with that? Are you just
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: you're not gonna But.
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: How many schools they've been to? Oh yeah, I make
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: a note of that. I'll find it quite interesting. There's
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: a guy that graduated in twenty seventeen high school.
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: I graduated in seventeen, somebody.
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: Some guys just slips through the cracks. There's kids that
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: are playing riches last year.
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: Here Rich say, yeah, he's a pretty good player as
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: my teammate.
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: Alright, three guys brought to us by episode eight hundred
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: dot com Textual Healing. You can hit us up three
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: O four four or four forty eighty three three or

  Speaker 2: four four eighty three? You ready for some of this?
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: Yep?
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: All right? This guy used to be a regular early
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: on in the show. Oh by the way, parenthetically, this
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: coming Saturday will literally be the eight year anniversary of
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: when we started Three Guys August thirty of How coincidental
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: is that that our very first day we ever did.
• 49:28
  Speaker 2: This will be the eight year anniversary of our first
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: game of the season three point I don't look lately.
• 49:35
  Speaker 2: Three point two million.
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: Downloads, that's just the audio. That's just the audio.
• 49:41
  Speaker 2: And then well maybe we'll build a little graphic of
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: how many hours and all that kind of stuff. A
• 49:47
  Speaker 2: lot of shows.
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, don't know what.
• 49:50
  Speaker 2: This is six fifty two, so we're down to what
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: last one hundred and forty eight before we retire, sail
• 49:55
  Speaker 2: off into the sunset. Yeah, people will be saying, kind
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: of like the Beatles, they still had so much left
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: in them.
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: It went off in different directions.
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Hi, this is Rich from Indy. I have a
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: question for the Hopster. When did the block party on
• 50:11
  Speaker 2: Grand Avenue first come into existence?
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: The block Party on Grand Avenue, that's when Sunnyside was
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: really cooking. All the bars were in Sunnyside, That's where
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: Buddy gathered was in Sunnyside, and Grand Avenue was a long,
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: flat street just a little bit up from Sunnyside, and
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: every year it was an annual unbelievable bash. I mean,
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: the whole street would just be a giant block party.
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: And then it got out of control, and in nineteen
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: ninety five I think was the last one. And then
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: after actually it led to cracking down on the Grand
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: Avenue block party. Sunnyside kind of dissipated. Now it's all downtown,
• 50:50
  Speaker 1: and it led to fall Fest. Yeah, so that's the
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: story there. And the first fall Fest I think was
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: maybe ninety six.
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: John in New Jersey. Why do you guys think of
• 50:59
  Speaker 2: the earthly betting line? What do you guys think of
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: the early betting line? West Virginia Pit Guys, we're getting
• 51:05
  Speaker 2: between a point and a half and two and a
• 51:06
  Speaker 2: half points as the underdogs. Question Mark, is that true? Brot?
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 51:09
  Speaker 4: Two and a half right now as we sit on
• 51:12
  Speaker 4: DraftKings right now, it simply was so much unknown. West
• 51:17
  Speaker 4: Virginia is just such an unknown quantity right here. That's
• 51:20
  Speaker 4: that's probably not a huge surprise, but you know, you
• 51:23
  Speaker 4: start to look down this, I'm thinking West Virginia is
• 51:26
  Speaker 4: only favored this season. As we sit here today. Again,
• 51:29
  Speaker 4: all kinds of things change and circumstances change each week,
• 51:32
  Speaker 4: but I think right now you can only identify maybe
• 51:37
  Speaker 4: four five's probably pushing it games that West Virginia will
• 51:41
  Speaker 4: be favored. And that's part of why we were talking
• 51:42
  Speaker 4: about the what are your expectations for this season? I
• 51:45
  Speaker 4: think you have to be cognizant that you're going to
• 51:47
  Speaker 4: be playing in an underdog role in a lot of these.
• 51:49
  Speaker 4: You'll be favored against Robert Morris, You'll be favored against
• 51:52
  Speaker 4: Ohio you You'll likely be favored against UCF Houston. Right now,
• 51:56
  Speaker 4: if you look at a bunch of different power rankings,
• 51:58
  Speaker 4: they and West Virginia are out even and you're going
• 52:01
  Speaker 4: to be on the road in that So maybe maybe not.
• 52:04
  Speaker 4: What's Colorado's status coming in here? You certainly wouldn't be
• 52:06
  Speaker 4: favored over Colorado today, but maybe that changes down the line.
• 52:10
  Speaker 4: You know your home games in Conference UTAW, TCU, Colorado,
• 52:15
  Speaker 4: and Texas Tech. Are you favored in any of those?
• 52:18
  Speaker 2: Well?
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: Probably today? No?
• 52:20
  Speaker 4: Today, no today, no, And on the road Kansas no
• 52:23
  Speaker 4: by you know then UCF and Houston and the Arizona State,
• 52:27
  Speaker 4: so no, yeah, So this is from that perspective, West
• 52:30
  Speaker 4: Virginia is gonna be swinging from an underdog role most
• 52:32
  Speaker 4: of these games.
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, with what you know today and the fact if
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: you take off the golden blue glasses and know that
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: West Virginia seventy new players quarterback, we have to see
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: you just talked about the offensive line. Pitt has a
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: returning quarterback. Yeah, Pitt would be the favorite today. And
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: you know what, though, home dog against Pitt, I take
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: that home dog.
• 52:49
  Speaker 4: Again because that's basically a toss up game.
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, and that's typically the mountain here. You one,
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: I'd rather almost rather be a home dog again.
• 52:57
  Speaker 2: In the pit game than favored Western.
• 53:00
  Speaker 4: Wind total in most places was five and a half.
• 53:02
  Speaker 4: I saw one on DraftKings last night. Conference win total
• 53:06
  Speaker 4: just two and a half. Now heavily juiced to the over,
• 53:09
  Speaker 4: but that was at two and a half.
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: So there are some numbers for.
• 53:12
  Speaker 2: You, Texter. This is what walking in the Mountaineer man
• 53:16
  Speaker 2: trip looks like. Have a great season, Tony. I'm bringing
• 53:19

  Speaker 1: I do, John Lee. That is a great opportunity.
• 53:39
  Speaker 4: That's one of my favorite parts of being around a
• 53:41
  Speaker 4: team is the walk into a stadium or a basketball arena.
• 53:44
  Speaker 4: Hop that's that's a neat experience there that Gomarrt's given away.
• 53:47

  Speaker 2: on arrivals. See you later, Joey B and Princeton guys,
• 54:03
  Speaker 2: No need to read this text unless you want to. Lol.
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: Just a question.
• 54:07
  Speaker 2: I'm bringing the three guys gender reveal baby up next
• 54:11
  Speaker 2: Friday for the food court to meet you guys. I'm
• 54:13
  Speaker 2: wondering if we can effort a three guys before the
• 54:15
  Speaker 2: game onesie for him for a picture with you all.
• 54:18
  Speaker 2: As always appreciate. Yet, remember we did that baby reveal
• 54:21
  Speaker 2: and now the baby's here, and so they're going to
• 54:23
  Speaker 2: bring us up and we get a picture.
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: Made with the baby. That'd be nice.
• 54:27
  Speaker 2: That was our first and only picture reveal. We retired
• 54:29
  Speaker 2: after that of baby reveal. I should say Logan and Mannington.
• 54:34
  Speaker 2: This week, the week of the State Fair in Louisbourg,
• 54:36
  Speaker 2: my wife and I saw Zach Top highlight of my
• 54:39
  Speaker 2: day during the show was the eat Blank pit chant
• 54:42
  Speaker 2: going on almost between every song. Love hearing me the
• 54:45
  Speaker 2: same love for WVU and hate against Pitt that far
• 54:47
  Speaker 2: down south. I also got the chance started on my
• 54:50
  Speaker 2: birthday during the Nate Smith concert. Can't wait to get
• 54:53
  Speaker 2: rich Rod back. Watch some football. Thanks guys. Oh, this
• 54:56
  Speaker 2: is a good one here. This's going to require pictures
• 54:59
  Speaker 2: and video. Remember Brian was going overseas and he said
• 55:02
  Speaker 2: he was going to keep up to date with us. Yeah,
• 55:04
  Speaker 2: when he was on his way to Peru, he met
• 55:06
  Speaker 2: all those people at the gate, he says, lima Peru, Hello,
• 55:14
  Speaker 2: oh La. Trey Chicos. Really enjoyed the last episode with
• 55:18
  Speaker 2: the Wren and the President. Great to hear the two
• 55:20
  Speaker 2: of them, along with the the board, are fully aligned
• 55:23
  Speaker 2: on the importance of WVU athletics. I've liked everything I've
• 55:26
  Speaker 2: heard about the President so far, but at the end
• 55:28
  Speaker 2: of the day, the show skyrocketed. In my book, as
• 55:31
  Speaker 2: a fellow Orange theory Jim Goer, I was fired up
• 55:33
  Speaker 2: to hear the president Benson not only tackled the two
• 55:37
  Speaker 2: thousand meter row benchmark, he absolutely crushed it a six
• 55:41
  Speaker 2: point fifty three. That is seriously impressive. So he must
• 55:45
  Speaker 2: be really good on that rower. Did you see did
• 55:48
  Speaker 2: Wren tweet out a picture of the president throwing a pass?
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: Was it? Did you see that the president put one out? Oh?
• 55:56
  Speaker 2: The President throwing a.
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: Pass looks like a pretty good form. Yeah.
• 56:00
  Speaker 2: Is he in the quarterback room? There's enough of them
• 56:04
  Speaker 2: in there, he could probably came getting more in there.
• 56:06
  Speaker 2: Sounds like some good news in federal court with the
• 56:10
  Speaker 2: players in their eligibility for this. Okay, now he's eating
• 56:15
  Speaker 2: here in Peru, check out some of this for this
• 56:17
  Speaker 2: stop rate my plate. We've got a lomo saltall Doo
• 56:25

• 56:29
  Speaker 2: traditional dishes in Peru stir fry marinated beef strips, onions, tomatoes,
• 56:34
  Speaker 2: and peppers. Typically you watching his bread served over fries
• 56:38
  Speaker 2: and rice. This particular one had loads of red onions,
• 56:41
  Speaker 2: thinly sliced bell peppers, with a garnish of fresh cilantro.
• 56:46
  Speaker 2: Absolutely fantastic. Now we normally don't do videos here because
• 56:51
  Speaker 2: the quality doesn't transfer well when you text it in.
• 56:54
  Speaker 2: Check this thing out. This is called a chocolate magic ball.
• 56:58
  Speaker 2: It is a brownie with watch it but watches a
• 57:03
  Speaker 2: brownie with vanilla ice cream sealed inside a chocolates sphere.
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: So when you pour it, the warm chocolate sauce is
• 57:10
  Speaker 2: poured over the top, it melts the shell and then boom,
• 57:14
  Speaker 2: it pops open and then you got that brownie with
• 57:17
  Speaker 2: vanilla ice cream inside. So you just have just a delight.
• 57:21
  Speaker 1: Is that one scoop of vanilla?
• 57:23
  Speaker 2: Got sure? Next up?
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: Bread needs two or three?
• 57:27
  Speaker 2: Next up, deconstructed Terra masou. All the marscapone cream and
• 57:30
  Speaker 2: soaked cookies are layered in a glass and an espresso
• 57:33
  Speaker 2: shot is poured through a chocolate topper, melting it as
• 57:38
  Speaker 2: it streams in. Watch this one. The coffee here is
• 57:41
  Speaker 2: absolutely incredible. So I tell you what they're doing, some
• 57:45
  Speaker 2: nice things.
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: They're in Peru and Brian's living it up.
• 57:48
  Speaker 2: Well hell yeah, Brian is.
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah.

  Speaker 2: Big tater is what we have to add out of there.
• 58:43
  Speaker 2: So next time you go to tutors, figure it out
• 58:45
  Speaker 2: for yourself. Get yourself a big tater.
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: What is it again?
• 58:49
  Speaker 2: It's tutors. They have a big tater thing, whole big
• 58:53
  Speaker 2: tater obviously away from the biscuit, more of a.
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: Potato andre and you need to try it.
• 59:00
  Speaker 2: Last show, thirteen fifty five into the show. With all
• 59:03
  Speaker 2: due respect, Tony references Morgantown against Parkersburg South. In reality,
• 59:07
  Speaker 2: it's Parkersburg. I'm a Parkersburg grat here still dislikes South
• 59:11
  Speaker 2: as much as Hoppy dislikes eating out for lunch. We
• 59:16
  Speaker 2: know Hoppy wouldn't have messed that one up, but it's okay,
• 59:18
  Speaker 2: keep it moving, love three guys. Yeah, my bad, I said.
• 59:23
  Speaker 2: I said Parkersburg South. It's the Big Reds. It's not
• 59:25
  Speaker 2: Parkersburg South. But I do delight in the fact that
• 59:27
  Speaker 2: whenever you come across Parkersburg people, I always start it with, hey, South,
• 59:31
  Speaker 2: are you big red Ah?
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: That talk about a rivalry.
• 59:35
  Speaker 2: That's truly that that might be this Like a lot
• 59:39
  Speaker 2: of them have dissolved because of consolidation, but that one there,
• 59:43
  Speaker 2: they still don't like each other.
• 59:44
  Speaker 4: No, that's like you can talk to older people there
• 59:47
  Speaker 4: and they still well, you.
• 59:48
  Speaker 2: Go talk about Fairmount East and Fairmount West. They used
• 59:52
  Speaker 2: to fight each other on the bridge. Seriously, that's not
• 59:55
  Speaker 2: a joke. I mean they would fight each other like
• 59:57
  Speaker 2: they'd fight down the bridge. That's kind of dissipated.
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 4: So this was Morgantown High against Parkersburg, which is kicking
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 4: off high school football season comes up on Thursday.
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well happen you have your game? You doing that game?
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: That's the game? Yeah on Metro News TV, Metrons TV.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 2: Okay, these folks say. We're Rosemary Beach in Florida having dinner.
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 2: Halfway through, the waitress named Olivia asked where we're from.
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 2: We say, West Virginia. She lights up, says she went
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 2: to school in Morgantown swam for WV. Turns out she
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 2: was on the team with my cousin's kids, Morgan and
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 2: Nate Carr. Then she says her last name is Halflinn.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 2: She's Ed Heffland's niece. Who would have thought that Ed's
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 2: Daughter's been close friends with my wife and I since
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 2: undergrad a WVU. We were just at a concert with
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 2: her Thursday. From the Rosemary Beach all the way back
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 2: to some of our closest West Virginia is always a
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 2: West Virginia connection.
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 1: There they are they.
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 2: Met up there? Yeah, that looks like about one hundred
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 2: and twenty five dollars a plate restaurant to me. I mean,
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 2: I don't think you're getting none of there under much
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 2: less than that, would you say? So?
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 1: Hop looks like.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 2: So that's about a buck in a quarter. Ye, each
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 2: is a place where Kerchival would never.
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: Go see probably wouldn't actually.
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 2: Texter Devrees yard sale, priceless, hoppy, funny stuff. That was
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 2: a great line. You've had two great lines last two shows.
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 2: You call west over East Berlin and you said there.
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 1: Because of the construction. Of course it's only construction, and
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 1: because of checkpoint Charlie over there where you have if
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 1: you're trying to get into do you think you're going? No,
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 1: this is not the vate to Grenville. I have a
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 1: be keeping a pestport Granviell. You gotta go now, you
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 1: gotta go, like to Pennsylvania, circle around.
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 2: Across the river, take a ferry to the river doug
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 2: and Bridgeport here. I was planning on retiring. More likely
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 2: I thought it was played out in full disclosure. I
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 2: wasn't a fan of bringing Rich back. But it's football season,
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 2: best time of the year. How can you not be
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 2: excited when it comes down to this. Regardless, I'm rooting
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 2: for the team. Hope win. I think we scuffle some
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 2: going three or seven or four and eight, but hoping
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 2: for better. If Rich gets as Bowl eligible with ninety transfers,
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 2: cut the red tape, building a statue. Also more likely
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 2: is what I do. And like with any good football team,
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 2: everyone as small as it might be, has to play
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 2: its part. So here we go, Bob Morris. More likely
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 2: to happen.
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 1: I've dug credit.
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 4: He took one of my bits and does it better
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 4: than I do, puts more time into it than I do.
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 1: He's done a nice job with this. It's well, it
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 1: is well done. Well, you're busy.
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 2: You're getting ready for that pepper eating contest over there.
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 4: A lot than we always would do on Thursday nights
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 4: are more likely.
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: All right? When do we make in predictions Wednesday? What game?
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 1: I mean season predictions? I don't know. Prediction shows last
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 1: night on Sportslane? Could have join that heard you on
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 1: six and six.
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 2: Guy walking this morning, got near the football stadium, walks
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 2: by me. He said, Brad went six and six. I said,
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 2: excuse me, sir? He said, Brad went six and six?
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 1: I saw?
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 2: Did he write?
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 1: Is that right over the wind? Total?
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 2: What was the average on the show? Do you know?
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 1: Seven ish?
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 4: I think it came out to like six point nine
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 4: to nine in six is a five?
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 1: Six? Five? Six? Is right? There, it's five and a
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 1: half right there, So you got it.
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 4: But that one win, that sixth win, That's why I
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 4: think that pick pack is a huge swing. So that
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 4: you start out three and oh, you feel pretty good
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 4: about your your over your over position.
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, Texter. Is it more likely?
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 1: Can I ask one thing? Are you including Pitt in
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: that six? Okay?
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 2: Is it more likely that three quarterbacks take snaps in
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 2: the Robert Morris game? Or or there are two or
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 2: more quarterback rushing touchdowns?
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 4: I think there'll be more than two quarterback rushing touchdowns.
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: Really wow?
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 2: Is it more likely that we have three sacks against
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 2: Robert Morris? Or we have a turnover margin equal to
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 2: or over plus two? He points out improving the turnover
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 2: margin absolutely necessary this season.
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 1: I think it's tough on turnover margin in game one
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 1: when who knows? That's a good one.
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 2: I'll go three secs. Last one. Is it more likely
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 2: we've got one hundred yard rusher in the game or
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 2: a seventy five yard receiver?
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 1: Those good, good numbers. Give me a one hundred yard rusher?
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 2: You say, jaheem goes for a hunting h Okay. He
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 2: closes by saying the Bridgeport Indians roll like a big
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 2: wheel this year, just as Parkersburg South or the Venerated
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 2: Spring Mills are scrimmage partners this year. You want to
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 2: see a great game, put your calendar down. October three,
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 2: Maryland Perennial, champ Ford Hill lines up comes to Wayne
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 2: Jamison Field should be epic. Seth and Clarksburg writes, can't
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 2: believe the season starts this week. I'm excited, even though
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 2: not much as expected. When coach Rye was here before,
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 2: football was exciting. He was great at finding developing talent.
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 2: Do you know if the players get any bonus or
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 2: incentive pay like the pros. Let's say Jaheem White goes
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 2: for a thirty yard TV run to win a game
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 2: against Pitt Could he get a monetary bonus for that?
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 2: Just curious? Thank you the Seth in Clarksburg, we've talked
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 2: about that.
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 1: I don't think he's so so.
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 2: University wise, No, there's nothing in their agreements that say, hey,
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 2: if you score a game winning touchdown, you get X,
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 2: Y and Z now down the road years to come.
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 2: Who knows if that's in there. However, However, I mean,
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 2: I don't understand why you couldn't do that if you're
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 2: a social media person that's got a massive following, for
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 2: example that's got a big mountaineer following, like you could
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 2: get on there after a game and say, hey, Jaheim
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 2: White showed the dude some love. He had a thirty
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 2: yard touchdown to beat Pitt here's a code that will
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 2: venmo him X. There's nothing that can stop that from happening.
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 2: There's not what would stop that, right, Brad, what would
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 2: stop that? If a fan said that.
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 1: I think there's an issue, and I don't remember what
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 1: it is. I don't think he can do that. I
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 1: think that's I think that's what I might have checked
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 1: on that that that might have gotten in a way
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 1: of our three guys past the hat at the game plan.
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 1: Remember if somebody had a big game, we were gonna like,
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 1: let's all chip like the announcers. And now, because Jaheim
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 1: White had one hundred and forty yards, when you leave
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 1: the stadium, drop a few bucks into the bucket.
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 4: Instead of he Instead of for a fifty to fifty drawing,
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 4: you would instead just put it to player.
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, don't.
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 4: I don't know that you can do that, but I
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 4: mean I have no idea what the rules are.
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 2: We'll look into that.
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know if there are rules, and
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 1: I don't know what they are. Here's the rule. Sometimes
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 1: you can do it, sometimes you can't. That's true.
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 2: Mike from Gilbert by way of Dallas. I'd like to
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 2: know what you three think of over underwins. How many
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 2: will take before all of the rich rod haters get
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 2: back on board? Thanks, let's go three. You win the
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 2: first three, everyone who's on the fence jumps back over
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 2: on the fence. Three Texter. I had no idea that
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 2: Nate Adrian lived his first few years in Fort Ashby.
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 2: They should claim him hang a banner. But I'm glad
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 2: he ended up transferring to Morgantown because he would have
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 2: played for Frankfurt also known as the Pit of Mineral Countyser.
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 1: You know what that old kaiser Frankfort rivalry.
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Frankfort with a world championship last year hig school football.
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 2: That also tells you that that gentleman Dave.
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 1: They were big. I did that game line devilin.
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 2: Dave, Like he must have gone back because we haven't
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 2: had Nate Adrian on a long time, so he just
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 2: must have been like what do you call that? Like
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 2: just going back and listening to old episodes.

• 1:10:08
  Speaker 2: Nice to have those guys with us, great time on board. Yeah,
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 2: this is a good one. I work at Ruby last
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 2: week two days in a row, I'm going into work,
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 2: I noticed a goat walking along the sidewalk and awaited vest.
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 2: Just so happened that I'm in the middle of framing
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 2: jerseys for the man Cave I have currently working on
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 2: the one this particular goat donned in the Professional Pigskin League.
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 2: I got the idea to bring the jersey with me
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 2: and if by chance I see him walking, I'm going
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 2: to ask him to sign it. Well, today was that day.
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 2: I felt really bad interrupting his work out, but he
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 2: was very gracious and he signed it for me. The
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 2: goat there it was, he said, I was faced that
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 2: Pat White signed is Miami Dolphins jersey. I was face
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 2: to face with the man that provided me with the
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 2: four best years of my sports fandom life. It felt surreal.
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 2: I heard you talk about him walking around the stadium
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 2: on the pod last week and the Senator mentioned getting autographs.
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 2: I just wanted to get ahead of this and say
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 2: I had the idea before that was mentioned, and I
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 2: don't condone interrupting his workout. PS you guys have Ren's ear.
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 2: Tell him to hang five in the banners. That's a
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 2: sacred number. It needs to be associated with one name
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 2: and one name only. Hashtag retire five.
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 1: Hey, Speaking of which, I see you guys have come
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 1: out with the Hall of Fame class.
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, and Pat McAfee going in.
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 4: He is, congratulations to Pat the whole class. How about
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 4: so you get two of the all time great characters
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 4: with courlavin Pat yeah and Antony, I said, and I'm
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 4: sure you echo this sentiment. I was thrilled to see
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 4: Pat and coach Stu going in at the same time,
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 4: as big a fan as Stu was of Pat and
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 4: Pats of Stu, and how close Pat remained to Blaine.
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 4: I thought that was a nice, nice touch, nice tie,
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 4: that Stu and Pat going together.
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 2: I saw someone after it came out kind of criticize
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 2: how Pat McAfee got in, thinking, wow, he got in
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 2: there because of his stardom. Well, there's this gentleman I
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 2: saw it on the Twitter named Greg Harvey does stat stuff.
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 2: Here's why Pat McAfee deserves to be in the WU
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 2: Hall of Fame, if for nothing else. Since nineteen ninety six,
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 2: only one FBS FCS football player has recorded a forty
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 2: yard punt average with a minimum of one hundred punts,
• 1:12:30
