Speaker 5: being with us on this Tuesday edition. This portion of
1:29
Speaker 5: the program brought to you by Radio Dentistry. We have
1:32
Speaker 5: slapped together what I think is our second good show
1:36
Speaker 5: of the week, and it's only Tuesday. That doesn't bode
1:39
Speaker 5: well for the rest of the week. But hey, what
1:41
Speaker 5: are you going to do? Coming up? Part two, Phil Steele.
1:45
Speaker 5: We talk SEC today with the guru of college football.

1:59
Speaker 5: guests in studio with a special event coming up tomorrow
2:03
Speaker 5: in our community. Also second hour Mike Elko He met
2:08
Speaker 5: with the media today, answer questions players reported today. Practice
2:13
Speaker 5: begins tomorrow evening, and we have a best of Mallory
2:18
Speaker 5: for you on today's date thirty three years ago, nineteen
2:27
Speaker 5: ninety three by my richardson High Math. Robin Ventura made
2:34
Speaker 5: the terrible mistake of charging Nolan Ryan on the mound
2:39
Speaker 5: after he was hit by a pitch, and the rest,
2:43
Speaker 5: as they say, is history. The old man beat up
2:47
Speaker 5: the young kid and what you might not remember, and
2:50
Speaker 5: I didn't either until I saw the video again today.
2:55
Speaker 5: After the fight was over, and it wasn't much of
2:58
Speaker 5: a fight, Ventura took first base and was promptly picked
3:05
Speaker 5: off by Pudge Rodriguez the first pitch of the next batter.
3:10
Speaker 5: It was not a good few minutes for Robin Ventura.
3:17
Speaker 5: That video has been shown I think on Ranger High
3:22
Speaker 5: on the highlight board at the stadium forever. When we
3:27
Speaker 5: talked about the book Nolan, we talked about the fact
3:34
Speaker 5: that they reportedly met when Ventura was the manager Nolan
3:43
Speaker 5: was the president of the Rangers. Had a brief meeting.
3:48
Speaker 5: I don't want to say cleared the air, but I'm
3:50
Speaker 5: not sure they had spoken since that night, and it
3:54
Speaker 5: just kept on and on and on. I think both
3:58
Speaker 5: men wanted put it behind him, more so Ventura for sure.
4:03
Speaker 5: That was thirty three years ago. Good gosh, hard to believe.
4:09
Speaker 5: Nolan was like one hundred and seven then. By the way,
4:15
Speaker 5: I think I mentioned yesterday two time World Series champs
4:19
Speaker 5: Scott Spiezio he's going to be with us tomorrow. His
4:23
Speaker 5: story of addiction, recovery, redemption in a new book he's
4:27
Speaker 5: written called The Hardest Comeback, along with a documentary film. Spezio,
4:34
Speaker 5: we will visit with Scott Spiezio tomorrow on the program. Okay,
4:41
Speaker 5: all right. Elko met with the media. As I mentioned today,
4:47
Speaker 5: a couple of players together, Mark Nebeu, Dalton Brooks Mike
4:52
Speaker 5: Andreilly were also around. Elko did say that it appears
5:00
Speaker 5: linebacker Damian Sandford will be ready to go by the
5:05
Speaker 5: season opener. Elko said, I don't think we'll have anybody
5:10
Speaker 5: missed the first day of camp. Sanford is among those
5:14
Speaker 5: building up in practice. There are some markers and steps
5:19
Speaker 5: he has to go through, but he is on course
5:24
Speaker 5: to be ready for the season opener. That's great news
5:27
Speaker 5: for Mike Elko and the defense. Linebacker is a position
5:33
Speaker 5: of need this season, and they need him. So the
5:38
Speaker 5: Coach's poll is out, the first poll of the year,
5:43
Speaker 5: so you know we're getting close. Aggie's are eight. Let's
5:51
Speaker 5: go from bottom to top. Missouri twenty five, Houston twenty four,
5:57
Speaker 5: Clemson twenty three, Iowa, Utah SMU at twenty. I think
6:04
Speaker 5: they're under sold there, Washington, Tennessee over sold, Penn State,
6:12
Speaker 5: Michigan over sold at sixteen. Although I do like the coach,
6:17
Speaker 5: I will say that BYU fifteen, USC fourteen too high,
6:22
Speaker 5: LSU thirteen, Tech twelve probably too low. Alabama eleven, oh
6:31
Speaker 5: Miss ten, then Oklahoma at nine, A and m at eight,
6:37
Speaker 5: Miami seven, Indiana at six. The Hoosiers got fourteen first
6:43
Speaker 5: place votes. By the way, there are two points behind
6:47
Speaker 5: Notre Dame at five, Texas at four, Georgia at three,
6:53
Speaker 5: Oregon at two, and the Buckeyes of Ohio State sitting
6:59
Speaker 5: at number one. Again, this is the coach's poll. The
7:06
Speaker 5: Texas Rangers may or may not have hit rock bottom
7:10
Speaker 5: last night. Ranger fans can only hope this team committed
7:16
Speaker 5: five count them five errors in a five to one
7:21
Speaker 5: loss to a brutal San Francisco Giants team, two errors
7:27
Speaker 5: in the first inning that led to two runs five
7:31
Speaker 5: to one the final six straight losses. This is after
7:38
Speaker 5: the team decided only to trade Josh Smith and keep
7:44
Speaker 5: everybody and so the team promptly thanked Chris Young and
7:54
Speaker 5: the front office for keeping everyone together by losing and
7:58
Speaker 5: committing five I say five errors that is hard to
8:06
Speaker 5: do in a major league game. McKenzie gore on the
8:10
Speaker 5: mound tonight for the Rangers. Played tidwell for the Giants. Newbie.
8:20
Speaker 5: We'll see what happens again. They have lost six in
8:24
Speaker 5: a row. They did get a little help from the
8:27
Speaker 5: Astros last night, who lost to the Blue Jays three
8:33
Speaker 5: to one at Dykin Park. Shane Bieber with a really
8:39
Speaker 5: nice outing. By the way. Right before the deadline, the
8:45
Speaker 5: Astros acquire outfielder Dalton var Show from Toronto in exchange
8:53
Speaker 5: for Spencer Irraghetti. Even though the Astros needed a starter,
9:00
Speaker 5: they gave up a starter who was great early but
9:04
Speaker 5: has not been great lately. Arraghetti. Var Show hitting two
9:12
Speaker 5: forty three nineteen doubles, seven homers, twenty six RBI for
9:18
Speaker 5: the Blue Jays former gold Glover. They will play again tonight.
9:24
Speaker 5: You can hear the broadcast here on the Zone beginning
9:27
Speaker 5: at six forty Hayden was Nesky pitching his second major
9:34
Speaker 5: league start in his return for tom from Tommy John
9:39
Speaker 5: surgery against Trey you Savage of the Blue Jays. Again.
9:46
Speaker 5: Astros still in first two games over five hundred in
9:51
Speaker 5: the dreadful Al West. We'll see what happens from there,
10:00
Speaker 5: and the bookie for Epei Musahara, who was Shohei Otani's
10:06
Speaker 5: interpreter and got caught in the gambling scambal scandal, said
10:12
Speaker 5: the Dodgers star showed signs of problem gambling within the
10:19
Speaker 5: four I begg your part. Not O'tani, his interpreter showed
10:24
Speaker 5: signs of gambling within thirty days of betting. He was
10:28
Speaker 5: absolutely bananas, said Matthew Boyer in a new episode of
10:34
Speaker 5: a show called The Betrayal of Show hey Atani. The
10:38
Speaker 5: amount of bets he was making, he was trying to
10:41
Speaker 5: dig out a hole. That hole made him even more
10:45
Speaker 5: poor of a gambler because he's betting big payoff stuff.
10:51
Speaker 5: US attorney who prosecuted miss Ohara's case told ESPN he
10:54
Speaker 5: did not believe miss Ohara's actions could solely be explained
10:59
Speaker 5: by gambling addiction. The attorney Estrada said, I'm not convinced
11:05
Speaker 5: he was just a gambling addict and had no choice.
11:10
Speaker 5: I think it's more he got this great opportunity and
11:14
Speaker 5: then saw a bigger opportunity to enrich himself. He allegedly
11:20
Speaker 5: stole more than seventeen million dollars from Otani. So wowsers
11:29
Speaker 5: on that one. Okay, Scottland Dinnon will be with us tomorrow.
11:36
Speaker 5: We will have our Clark Eisenhower Outdoor edition coming up
11:42
Speaker 5: on Thursday. You know, I wasn't here during Shark Week.
11:47
Speaker 5: We'll have to review Shark Week from last week. I
11:51
Speaker 5: thought it was decent. It wasn't the best, but there
11:54
Speaker 5: were some decent shows. Some of the entertainment stuff is
11:58
Speaker 5: getting old, frankly, but you know, they've it for thirty years.
12:01
Speaker 5: They're running out of ideas. But the actual scientific stuff
12:06
Speaker 5: I still enjoy. We'll talk about that and then Friday,
12:10
Speaker 5: Jared and Jason are in subbing for Ryan who subs
12:14
Speaker 5: for me on Fridays. So we got that going for us,
12:19
Speaker 5: which is nice. Okay, we're going to take a break.
12:24
Speaker 5: We're going to come back. We're going to be joined
12:27
Speaker 5: second day in a row by the Guru of college football,
12:31
Speaker 5: Phil Steel. After this. For Chad Jones, law.
12:36
Speaker 7: I'm Chad Jones. We know sports injuries hurt, and so
12:39
Speaker 7: do injuries from car rex, but you didn't sign up
12:42
Speaker 7: to being a carreck with someone who wasn't paying attention.
12:44
Speaker 7: It was their fault and now you're left to deal
12:46
Speaker 7: with the consequences. You need to see a doctor and

13:06
Speaker 5: Marty and McGee.
13:08
Speaker 8: I think it was Clemson at Georgia Tech, and I'm
13:10
Speaker 8: standing on the sideline and all of a sudden, the
13:12
Speaker 8: producer is like, Marty, the game's yours. I'm like what
13:16
Speaker 8: he was like, we lost the booth. So I was
13:18
Speaker 8: standing on the sideline with a flip card trying to
13:21
Speaker 8: come all this college football game and I'm like, it
13:24
Speaker 8: was like that kid, that's like and the guy passes
13:27
Speaker 8: to the guy and then the heat guys shoot, go
13:29
Speaker 8: way down the top.
13:29
Speaker 9: Bank Marty and McGee, Saturday Morning, sixty nine on the
13:34
Speaker 9: eleven FF ninety three point seven FM.
13:37
Speaker 4: You come on upo them slowly.
13:47
Speaker 5: Rolling half down to me. Got chop joke up.
13:57
Speaker 10: It just do what it please?
14:10
Speaker 5: Welcome back, Glad to have you with us on a
14:13
Speaker 5: Tuesday edition of the program. Phil Steele, the guru of
14:20
Speaker 5: college football, was with us yesterday and we talked about
14:26
Speaker 5: the national scene. And so today I'm going to play
14:34
Speaker 5: an interview I was able to do with him last week,
14:39
Speaker 5: and we're going to talk SEC and Texas A and
14:43
Speaker 5: M today back for a second day, because one day
14:48
Speaker 5: with Phil Steele is simply not enough. Phil Steele's College
14:52
Speaker 5: Football magazine is out right now at Barnes and Noble
14:56
Speaker 5: and Books a million. We talked about the other leagues
15:00
Speaker 5: and the other top teams yesterday, Phil, but we went
15:03
Speaker 5: a key in on the SEC. This league, Phil, I mean,
15:08
Speaker 5: I don't know what's wrong with it. They haven't won
15:10
Speaker 5: a national championship now in four years?
15:13
Speaker 6: Yeah, four four SEC huh? And now you're playing nine
15:17
Speaker 6: conference games. That is just rugged schedule wise. Take a
15:22
Speaker 6: look at a team like Texas nine conference games and oh,
15:25
Speaker 6: by the way, you play Ohio State in the non
15:27
Speaker 6: conference and the two teams the other two teams that
15:30
Speaker 6: Texas plays in the non conference this year, Texas State's
15:34
Speaker 6: going to be one of the best teams in the
15:36
Speaker 6: Pac twelve and UTSA is going to be one of
15:38
Speaker 6: the best teams in the American.
15:40
Speaker 5: And Phil, let's just look at how you have rated
15:45
Speaker 5: some of them. You have Georgia, Texas, Alabama, Oklahoma, Ole
15:51
Speaker 5: miss A and m tied with Ole miss at fifth,
15:54
Speaker 5: Tennessee seventh, tied with LSU. Let's start at the top,
15:59
Speaker 5: because I mean, until somebody knocks these guys off, they're
16:04
Speaker 5: still the king of the hill, the fighting Kirby smarts,
16:06
Speaker 5: aren't they.
16:08
Speaker 6: Yeah? And I watched four days SEC media days and
16:10
Speaker 6: not a lot of talk about Georgia. Talk about a
16:13
Speaker 6: lot of other schools, but Georgia and all Georgia is
16:16
Speaker 6: is a much better team than they were last year,
16:18
Speaker 6: and last year they were the SEC champs. Defensively, they
16:21
Speaker 6: are loaded. They have got seven starters back on defense.
16:26
Speaker 6: I rate their defensive line in the top ten linebackers
16:30
Speaker 6: number five, dvs. Number three, and they go basically three
16:34
Speaker 6: deep at every defensive unit, which is rare in the
16:37
Speaker 6: transfer portal area. You look at their quarterback Gunner Stockton
16:41
Speaker 6: really impressed me last year fourth down fourth quarter key games.
16:44
Speaker 6: He had a sixteen to two ratio against ranked teams
16:48
Speaker 6: last year. They've got one of the top offensive lines
16:50
Speaker 6: in the country. I've rated at number seven. They've got
16:53
Speaker 6: one of the best running back corps I've rate at
16:55
Speaker 6: number six. Special teams I rate number five. Now they
16:58
Speaker 6: do have to play both Alabama and Old Miss on
17:01
Speaker 6: the road. This is a very dangerous Georgia team. I
17:03
Speaker 6: ran him number two in the country. I have him
17:05
Speaker 6: winning the SEC again and who knows, they may be
17:08
Speaker 6: the team to stop this big ten streak of national
17:12
Speaker 6: championships and finally get the SEC back in there.
17:15
Speaker 5: So you have Texas at two. The good news for
17:18
Speaker 5: Texas fill as they don't play Georgia in the regular
17:21
Speaker 5: season this year. The bad news is you have them
17:24
Speaker 5: as one of the toughest schedules in the country.
17:28
Speaker 6: Yeah, as I touch on nine SEC games and three
17:31
Speaker 6: tough non conference games. This is a loaded schedule for Texas.
17:35
Speaker 6: Spot Their offense is going to be much better than
17:39
Speaker 6: last year. If you watched arch Manning last year started
17:41
Speaker 6: out slow, but remember he had an offensive line that
17:44
Speaker 6: only had one returning starter. He is his top running
17:47
Speaker 6: back last year at five hundred and ninety seven yards.
17:50
Speaker 6: That's not a great supporting cast. Well, this year, their
17:53
Speaker 6: offensive line rate in the top twenty. The running backs
17:56
Speaker 6: they had in Hollywood Smothers FROMENCI State, a thousand yard rusher,
18:00
Speaker 6: Releak Brown, a thousand yard rusher from Arizona State. They'll
18:03
Speaker 6: have a better run game. They already had the explosive
18:06
Speaker 6: Ryan Wingo. Just throw this guy a little screen pass,
18:09
Speaker 6: take it the distance on the first play of the game.
18:12
Speaker 6: And then they add in a cam Coleman, So now
18:15
Speaker 6: you can't double team Wingo. And I thought arch Mannon
18:18
Speaker 6: got better and better as the season went on. At
18:20
Speaker 6: the end of the year, he's playing great ball. I've
18:22
Speaker 6: got him the number two offense in the country at
18:24
Speaker 6: the end of the year. Defensively, I've got the defensive line,
18:27
Speaker 6: number four, linebackers, number three, the secondary solid And when
18:31
Speaker 6: I talked to Sark about the squad, he felt pretty
18:34
Speaker 6: confident about this group. So I think when you look
18:37
Speaker 6: at Texas, they are a clear threat to Georgia this year.
18:40
Speaker 6: And I don't have an underdog in any games this year. Chip,
18:44
Speaker 6: I got a couple of toss ups on the schedule,
18:46
Speaker 6: Oklahoma and Dallas and at Texas A and M. But
18:49
Speaker 6: I think Texas is a great jot and they're over
18:51
Speaker 6: under nine and a half. I'll take the over on
18:54
Speaker 6: Texas this year.
18:55
Speaker 5: So what do you think about the muss Champ factor
18:57
Speaker 5: and the change a defensive coordinator.
19:00
Speaker 6: I like to change a big mush Champ fan as
19:04
Speaker 6: the defensive coordinator. Have always been a fan of his defenses,
19:07
Speaker 6: and I think he's got great talent to work with.
19:10
Speaker 6: Really like to pick up of Rashem Biles coming in
19:12
Speaker 6: from Pitt an All American linebacker to go along with
19:15
Speaker 6: Colin Simmons, your rush guy up front. Hero Canoe gives
19:20
Speaker 6: you that size of the interior high level player as
19:24
Speaker 6: somebody that turned down the NFL. And then in the
19:27
Speaker 6: secondary you got a guy like Jolani McDonald who's going
19:30
Speaker 6: to be an All American type of player this year.
19:32
Speaker 6: This a loaded defense and must Champs a big plus.
19:35
Speaker 5: So I don't know if I ever dreamed of a year,
19:39
Speaker 5: Phil that you would have Alabama as a surprise team.
19:43
Speaker 6: Yeah, neither did I. It's been since two thousand and
19:46
Speaker 6: five since the and to be a surprise team, Chip,
19:49
Speaker 6: just to clarify, you have to not be in the
19:51
Speaker 6: preseason top ten. Well, not only is Alabama not gonna
19:54
Speaker 6: be in a preseason top ten, they were picked sixth
19:57
Speaker 6: in the SEC this year, sixth the last time you
20:00
Speaker 6: ever heard of that. But I think they're under the radar.
20:03
Speaker 6: I thought the way they finished last year is the
20:05
Speaker 6: reason they were picked six. Remember they got blown out
20:07
Speaker 6: by Georgia, blown out by Indiana, couldn't run the football,
20:11
Speaker 6: lose your quarterback. What's there to like about Alabama? Well,
20:15
Speaker 6: I like Kaylen Deboor. I think yea extremely tough situation
20:21
Speaker 6: taking over for Nick Saban. This guy against ranked teams
20:26
Speaker 6: has a record of twenty and six, so he knows
20:29
Speaker 6: how to play in the big games. He's got two
20:31
Speaker 6: quarterbacks I like, and Keelon Russell and Austin Mack. You
20:34
Speaker 6: look at the receiving court. Ryan Coleman had an off
20:37
Speaker 6: year last year. He had about eleven drops. He's got
20:39
Speaker 6: a chip on his shoulder. So now Ryan Coleman Williams.
20:42
Speaker 6: I think it will be a different guy at wide receiver.
20:45
Speaker 6: The offensive line and run game will develop this year.
20:47
Speaker 6: The defense is solid, and when I've got to look
20:50
Speaker 6: at their schedule, much like Texas, I don't have an
20:52
Speaker 6: underdog in any game. I've got three toss ups Georgia
20:55
Speaker 6: at home, and they beat Georgia on the road last
20:57
Speaker 6: year at Tennessee and at LSU. But I think they're
21:01
Speaker 6: way under the radar. They're my number one surprise team
21:03
Speaker 6: and I've got to making the playoff this year.
21:05
Speaker 5: Okay, And that's what the SEC needs is really more
21:10
Speaker 5: great teams.
21:11
Speaker 6: Phill, Yes, to take it.
21:14
Speaker 5: Well, let's talk about Oklahoma a little bit. You have
21:17
Speaker 5: them rated pretty highly, and I know defensively they were
21:22
Speaker 5: really good last year. Brent Vinnables and I'm just speaking personally,
21:27
Speaker 5: has not convinced me that he's a great head coach. Phil,
21:31
Speaker 5: we know he can coach defense.
21:35
Speaker 6: Yeah, and you know when you look at Oklahoma this year, Chip,
21:38
Speaker 6: this goes back to yesterday's call when we talked where
21:42
Speaker 6: you talked about the difference between the power pole and
21:44
Speaker 6: the rankings. Yes, I rate Oklahoma number seven in the
21:47
Speaker 6: power Pole, but they're only number thirteen in the ranking.
21:49
Speaker 6: And you're like, well, why is that. Well, they have
21:51
Speaker 6: to play at Michigan, at Georgia, Texas, and the Cotton
21:55
Speaker 6: Bowl at Florida and the Swamp. Those are four pretty
21:59
Speaker 6: tough road games, be tough to win, thows. But they
22:02
Speaker 6: do have a great defense, no doubt They've got that
22:05
Speaker 6: once again this year. In fact, Oklahoma has my number
22:08
Speaker 6: three rated defense in the country. Each of the three
22:11
Speaker 6: units in my top ten. The offensive line last year
22:14
Speaker 6: actually had three freshmen starting at one time, and Venable
22:18
Speaker 6: said that it may be the best offensive line he's had.
22:21
Speaker 6: They definitely have Bill bedvo is one of the best
22:24
Speaker 6: O line coaches, and I think if they stay healthier,
22:26
Speaker 6: they'll be stronger. Speaking of staying healthier, what about John
22:30
Speaker 6: Matias that hurt his hand, I think he's a different quarterback.
22:33
Speaker 6: He's got a Seitania back at wide receiver. They've got
22:36
Speaker 6: some dangerous running backs now. Blaylock missed the spring, but
22:39
Speaker 6: I expect them back one hundred percent. They've got Xavier Robinson,
22:42
Speaker 6: Lloyd Avon. I think the offense will be improved. The
22:44
Speaker 6: defense one of the best in the country. My problem
22:47
Speaker 6: with Oklahoma is the schedule this year.
22:49
Speaker 5: Yes, ole Miss Phil again, new coach, quarterback, really good,
22:55
Speaker 5: one of the top in the country. How much is
22:58
Speaker 5: Trinidad Chambliss's return factor into what people are expecting out
23:04
Speaker 5: of ole Miss this season? Yeah?
23:06
Speaker 6: I think without Chambliss they're not in the preseason top ten.
23:09
Speaker 6: I think with Chamblis they will be in the preseason
23:11
Speaker 6: top ten. I of the new head coaches in the SEC.
23:14
Speaker 6: I Pete Golding as the guy that steps into the
23:18
Speaker 6: best situation. First of all, he knows the personnel inside. Now. Heck,
23:22
Speaker 6: he was the head coach of this team during the
23:23
Speaker 6: playoffs when they made that great run and came within
23:26
Speaker 6: one player playing in the National title game. He's got
23:29
Speaker 6: turned to that chamberiss back. They get Key one Lacy back.
23:32
Speaker 6: This got the first team All American running back for
23:34
Speaker 6: crying out loud. The offensive line looks solid. I really
23:37
Speaker 6: like Patrick kutas the NFL calv lineman there. Defensively, they're
23:41
Speaker 6: better up front. This is a talented and it's the
23:45
Speaker 6: deepest defensive line they've had. And they had a really
23:48
Speaker 6: good d line two years ago. They took a step
23:50
Speaker 6: back last year. I think they're ready to take a
23:52
Speaker 6: step forward. OBS does have three key games to worry about, though.
23:56
Speaker 6: At I say at Florida because it's the week after LSU.
24:01
Speaker 6: I don't know if you know this ship, but old
24:03
Speaker 6: Missus hosting LSU on September nineteen. You haven't heard about that?
24:06
Speaker 6: Have you heard it?
24:07
Speaker 11: No?
24:07
Speaker 5: I have not about that one.
24:09
Speaker 6: I think Mississippi fans are going to be so pumped up.
24:12
Speaker 6: Mississippi player is going to be so pumped up and
24:14
Speaker 6: the very next week you have to go play Florida
24:16
Speaker 6: in the swamp. Talk about a letdown situation. They also
24:19
Speaker 6: played Texas on the road and Oklahoma on the road
24:22
Speaker 6: this year, so at Georgia at home. So the schedule's
24:25
Speaker 6: not easy none no SEC schedule is naturally, But I
24:29
Speaker 6: think Ole miss is a legit contender.
24:31
Speaker 5: Speaking of LSU the fighting Lane, Keffid's I've hogged the
24:35
Speaker 5: headlines the king of the portal. What do you expect
24:38
Speaker 5: from that LSU team, Phil, Well.
24:41
Speaker 6: You know, last year the team that had the best
24:42
Speaker 6: portal class, Texas Tech, went from being a above average
24:47
Speaker 6: team to just dominating the Big twelve. So LSU comes
24:50
Speaker 6: in with the number one portal class this year, right,
24:53
Speaker 6: they should be just as dominant. But here's the difference.
24:56
Speaker 6: Last year Texas Tech had my number five most experienced
25:00
Speaker 6: team and added the portal on top of it. So
25:03
Speaker 6: and plus coach McGuire heck of a coach, been there,
25:07
Speaker 6: knew the plersonnel inside and out, so it was not
25:10
Speaker 6: a new system here. LSU has the number one portal class,
25:14
Speaker 6: but they're my number ninety three experienced team. Have a
25:17
Speaker 6: new head coach, new coordinators on both sides of the ball,
25:20
Speaker 6: a lot of change, a lot of turnover. They had
25:22
Speaker 6: a fifty nine players this year, unlike Texas Tech last year.
25:26
Speaker 6: So I know LSU will be in the preseason top
25:30
Speaker 6: ten at the start of the year. I don't think
25:32
Speaker 6: they're going to finish in the preseason top ten. They
25:34
Speaker 6: may prove me wrong, but I'm not as high on
25:38
Speaker 6: LSU as everybody else is this year.
25:40
Speaker 5: All right, let's in with the Aggie spill and Mike
25:43
Speaker 5: Elko won the first eleven a year ago, lost their
25:47
Speaker 5: last two. What do you see from Texas A and
25:49
Speaker 5: M You have them tied with Ole Miss, behind Georgia, Texas, Alabama,
25:55
Speaker 5: and Oklahoma.
25:57
Speaker 6: Yeah, they're legitimate SEC title contender this year. I think
26:01
Speaker 6: when you take a look at the defensive side of
26:02
Speaker 6: the ball, they did lose a bunch to the draft.
26:08
Speaker 6: They lost ten draft picks overall. Defensively on the defensive line,
26:13
Speaker 6: they lost the number two in a couple of number threes.
26:15
Speaker 6: But I still think they're solid defensively and I rate
26:19
Speaker 6: them their secondary number seven in the country. Offensive or
26:23
Speaker 6: defensive line linebackers both top twenty. So overall defensively, I've
26:27
Speaker 6: got number thirteen. And offensively, if Marcel Reid cuts down
26:31
Speaker 6: on the turnovers, which I think he can, plays a
26:33
Speaker 6: little more consistent. He's got the receivers. I like Mario Kraver,
26:37
Speaker 6: I like Isaiah Horton. You look at the offensive line, now,
26:40
Speaker 6: that is a little bit of a question because last year,
26:43
Speaker 6: you know, when I talked to coach Elko his first
26:45
Speaker 6: year there, I asked about the offensive line, said, Phil,
26:48
Speaker 6: we're average, We're middle of the pack in the SEC
26:51
Speaker 6: offensive line. Last year he said, hey, we're at the
26:54
Speaker 6: top of the SEC and they were Joe Moore Award
26:56
Speaker 6: semi finalists last year. This year, naturally with one start back,
27:00
Speaker 6: he said, they're a step down, but he feels they
27:02
Speaker 6: could develop into an uprtional on team and that's going
27:05
Speaker 6: to be the key to me for A and M
27:07
Speaker 6: this year. In fact, I radam the number sixteen offensive line. Now,
27:11
Speaker 6: they do have to play LSU on the road, but
27:13
Speaker 6: they showed last year they can go in there and win.
27:15
Speaker 6: They won that game by twenty four points. They play
27:18
Speaker 6: Alabama on the road in Oklahoma on the road. I
27:20
Speaker 6: think Mike Elcho in his third year and third year
27:22
Speaker 6: head coaches generally have a lot of success. I think
27:25
Speaker 6: they are a legitimate SEC title contender this year.
27:28
Speaker 5: Music to the ears of a lot of my listeners. Phil,
27:32
Speaker 5: This is why we talk to you every year. I
27:34
Speaker 5: want to mention again that you can get the college

28:28
Speaker 6: This is my fun time of the year. Chip. This
28:30
Speaker 6: is I'm doing maybe sixty sixty five hours a week
28:33
Speaker 6: talking football on the radio. It's almost like being on
28:36
Speaker 6: vacation right now. Sleep the sleep deprivation happens during magazine season,
28:41
Speaker 6: which is seven months, and then football season, which of
28:44
Speaker 6: course is five months.
28:46
Speaker 5: This is the great Phil Steele, the guru of college
28:50
Speaker 5: football fail. I cannot thank you enough for taking these
28:53
Speaker 5: two days with us, and we're gonna we hope we
28:56
Speaker 5: can be in touch before this year is over.
29:00
Speaker 6: Sounds good, Chip, And like I mentioned yesterday, I can't
29:02
Speaker 6: thank you enough for having my magazine on your show
29:05
Speaker 6: for thirty two straight years, helping me when there was
29:09
Speaker 6: thirty magazines out there and we were just a newcomer.
29:11
Speaker 6: So appreciate all you've done to help us out throughout
29:14
Speaker 6: the years.
29:15
Speaker 5: Phil, thank you again.
29:16
Speaker 6: We'll talk soon, all right, Chip, have a good one,
29:19
Speaker 6: my friend.
29:20
Speaker 5: That's a great Phil Steele. And yeah, we've been doing
29:25
Speaker 5: this a while. We have both been doing this a while.
29:29
Speaker 5: He started the magazine I think a year after I
29:32
Speaker 5: started this program, so we have kind of grown up together.
29:36
Speaker 5: I started to grow old together. But Phil, Phil's not
29:39
Speaker 5: nearly as old as I am. He was actually a
29:42
Speaker 5: really young man when he started. In case you missed it,
29:47
Speaker 5: he has an M and Old Miss tied behind Oklahoma, Alabama, Texas,
29:55
Speaker 5: and Georgia in the SEC.
30:03
Speaker 9: Yeah.
30:03
Speaker 5: I don't like to go against Phil because his track
30:08
Speaker 5: record is pretty amazing. He may be right about Oklahoma.
30:13
Speaker 5: They're going to have to prove it to me. John
30:15
Speaker 5: Beneer is going to have to prove it, and Brent
30:18
Speaker 5: Finniples is going to have to prove it. I like
30:21
Speaker 5: his Alabama being quote a surprise team. I don't think
30:26
Speaker 5: Alabama is going to be sixth in the league, but
30:28
Speaker 5: you know, there's just not room for everybody at the top.
30:33
Speaker 5: I'm not sure about Tennessee. I'm you know, he's got
30:42
Speaker 5: LSU at seventh man. That would make the Cajunes mad,
30:47
Speaker 5: wouldn't it after all the hype you know when Florida
30:55
Speaker 5: is eleventh in the league. I mean, it's it's pretty stout.
30:59
Speaker 5: But we already that there's a lot of competition and
31:02
Speaker 5: like I said, only one team can win. Tomorrow, Scotland
31:11
Speaker 5: Dinnon will be with us, Scott Spiezi will be with us.

Speaker 5: Stoops Big Blue Nation as a new leader, Kentucky native
33:47
Speaker 5: Will Stein, the second youngest coach at a power program.
33:52
Speaker 5: The quarterback's also new, Notre Dame transferred Kenny Minshi. Minschi
33:57
Speaker 5: says everyone is new at Kentucky this year.
34:01
Speaker 14: Is a new team, a lot of new coaches except
34:04
Speaker 14: for one. So everybody was in the same boat as me,
34:08
Speaker 14: same situation as me, So it made it a little
34:10
Speaker 14: bit easier just with everyone kind of doing the same
34:13
Speaker 14: thing in terms of, you know, meeting teammates, learning who
34:17
Speaker 14: guys are, learning about guys, spending time with guys. And
34:21
Speaker 14: it was a very smooth transition in terms of people
34:23
Speaker 14: which I feel like I valued and noticed the most
34:27
Speaker 14: in my first few months here.
34:28
Speaker 5: Former A and M defensive coordinator Jay Bateman has joined
34:32
Speaker 5: Stein's staff at safety. Ty Bryant likes what he sees
34:37
Speaker 5: so far.
34:37
Speaker 1: I think Will Stein he is really like he has
34:39
Speaker 1: his hand in on the defense, but it's more Jay Bateman.
34:42
Speaker 1: He has aggressive style of the defense, and he's a
34:45
Speaker 1: guy who's going to get after you and we're going
34:48
Speaker 1: to see and send the blitz and be sticky on
34:51
Speaker 1: the back end.
34:51
Speaker 5: But Kentucky hosts Alabama in week two and comes to

48:33
Speaker 5: That, yeah you get a.
48:34
Speaker 11: Whole lot of go.
48:35
Speaker 5: ORDERS i know it's it's been. Difficult fundraising is, difficult
48:41
Speaker 5: the economy is. Difficult where are we right now at
48:45
Speaker 5: the food Pack.
48:47
Speaker 11: So, yeah the, NEED i would, say talking not so
48:51
Speaker 11: much about the food make, itself but how we're impacted
48:54
Speaker 11: by the. Need one in six people in The Brasses,
48:57
Speaker 11: valley one out of four children are dealing with the
49:01
Speaker 11: issue of food and security or. Hunger the depth of
49:04
Speaker 11: the hunger is more, though if you you, know maybe
49:06
Speaker 11: you heard me talk five years ago and you're, saying
49:08
Speaker 11: she's saying the same. Thing nothing's getting. BETTER i would
49:12
Speaker 11: say the depth of the need for individual families is.
49:15
Speaker 11: Greater so if somebody maybe would visit a food pantry
49:19
Speaker 11: once a, quarter now they might be visiting one or
49:22
Speaker 11: two a, month which is something that we.
49:23
Speaker 5: Allow.
49:24
Speaker 11: Absolutely we don't call it double. Dippling we don't think
49:27
Speaker 11: it's a bad. Thing it's people being resourceful to get
49:30
Speaker 11: food on the, table and so that depth of need
49:33
Speaker 11: is causing a lot of stress and a lot of
49:35
Speaker 11: anxiety for our.
49:36
Speaker 5: Neighbors there's also ways to. VOLUNTEER i, mean there's plenty
49:40
Speaker 5: of volunteering opportunities at the food bank Right so.
49:43
Speaker 11: Going back to the food bank, itself you, know we
49:46
Speaker 11: need to raise every year about four point five million
49:49
Speaker 11: dollars annually to do what we. Do and last year
49:54
Speaker 11: we did pretty well because there was a lot of
49:56
Speaker 11: support around that government shutdown and people knew that we
49:59
Speaker 11: were stepping up to do. More the year before that
50:02
Speaker 11: we were really. Struggling SO i feel like this year
50:05
Speaker 11: is going to be again another struggling. Year we have
50:07
Speaker 11: less government, funding as do most, charities. Universities it's just
50:12
Speaker 11: the way things are right. Now so the only way
50:15
Speaker 11: for us to continue to do what we do at
50:17
Speaker 11: the level that we do is for, individuals foundations and
50:21
Speaker 11: corporations and businesses to, say, hey we're going to step
50:24
Speaker 11: up now that we don't have the same government support
50:26
Speaker 11: so this is an event that makes it easy to do.
50:29
Speaker 11: That you can you can come in, person you can donate.
50:32
Speaker 11: Online As chip, said we need volunteers all year, round
50:36
Speaker 11: especially actually this month because we are a community that runs.
50:41
Speaker 5: On the same, schedule schedule till.
50:45
Speaker 11: The students come. Back we have fewer volunteers in the.
50:47
Speaker 11: Summertime SO i mean we can, accommodate accommodate big. Groups
50:52
Speaker 11: if you want to come with your, work with your church,
50:54
