  Speaker 2: hear myself in one ear.
• 1:03
  Speaker 7: I was like thinking about your headphones and then you
• 1:07
  Speaker 7: yo'd and then I skipped you for some reason.
• 1:10
  Speaker 5: And so I was like, and then I skipped you
• 1:12
  Speaker 5: again on the howl. It's not going well.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: It's because we didn't break our neck.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: I'm overexposing.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: We didn't break our neck this morning. Mine was like
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: a question how, because I was questioning Alondra not yo-ing. Like, how?
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: Are you leaving?
• 1:24
  Speaker 7: Because then I jumped your yo, so then I stopped,
• 1:28
  Speaker 7: and then I tried to yo again.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: It just, no. Hey, it's still the preseason, guys.
• 1:31
  Speaker 6: I was just thinking, like, is Alondra trying to tell
• 1:34
  Speaker 6: us she's leaving the Wolfpack right now?
• 1:36
  Speaker 5: Ooh, what if that's how I told y'all?
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: You're freaking. Just didn't yo. I just didn't yo. Respect.
• 1:41
  Speaker 5: If I ever don't yo, just know.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: Just know.
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: I'm leaving.
• 1:46
  Speaker 6: I fear confrontation, so I'm not going to tell y'all,
• 1:48
  Speaker 6: but there will be signs. Alondra definitely does not fear confrontation.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: I was straight.
• 1:52
  Speaker 5: I'll just tell y'all. Guys, it's not working out anymore.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: Nah, she fears confrontation. Yeah, for sure. Hates it. Nope.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: Not at all.
• 2:00
  Speaker 5: I've been told I'm very non-confrontational.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Nobody's ever told you that. Said nobody ever. Not one person.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: It's okay. One of the things I really like about you, Alondra. Hello. Hey,
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: good morning.
• 2:14
  Speaker 5: Sorry for messing that up, guys.
• 2:15

  Speaker 2: First Tuesday of the season. How fun is that?
• 2:28
  Speaker 5: So much fun.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: The most. The most fun. Because what did we say yesterday?
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: How do we put it? Ball will soon meet T.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Ball will be placed on T. Ball will be placed
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: on T by a referee. And then it'll be adjusted
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: by the kicker.
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: Whistle will be blown.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: And the kicker's going to get it. He's going to
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: squish it on the ground a couple times. Push it
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: on the ground like give it CPR. Yeah, like what
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: are you doing? Give it CPR. Kick the ball, kicker.
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: Put the boot to the ball.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: Get your boot and put it on that ball. That's
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: this weekend. That's fun.
• 3:09
  Speaker 6: That's this weekend. It can't come fast enough. My God.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: What do you mean by that, bud? Let's get past
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: all the dumb parts of college football and let's just
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: get to the games. That's what we're trying to do.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: We're trying so hard. People aren't making it easy.
• 3:27
  Speaker 5: What if we just stop talking about it?
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: I mean, we have pretty much. We didn't talk about
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: it like the last couple of shows, and there's been
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: a lot of news that happened, and we haven't talked
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: about it.
• 3:37
  Speaker 7: Because it's not really anything new, I feel like.
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, nothing's really new.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: It's just the same song and dance. My God, it
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: will be covered.
• 3:43
  Speaker 5: They're playing a game of chicken. It's just like.
• 3:46
  Speaker 6: You guys shuffle, and then you're in the same hole.
• 3:48
  Speaker 6: You just keep digging.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: A little deeper. It's the same commentary. Yeah, we were
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: at a.
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: JV game last night, and people kept asking questions. about it,
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: and I was just like, we kick off this weekend.
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: They ask again, I'm like, hey, we kick off this weekend. Like,
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: I just, like, not even, like, out in the wild.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: I just don't want to. It is what it is.
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: You mentioned it to me, and I was like, I
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: don't care.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: You can't just say it is what it is. No,
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: I'm talking about, like, right now, what are we going
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: to do about it? It's been reported. What are we
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: going to do about the result of the game? But
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: we talk about it. You think that's the same? Like,
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: what are we going to? Okay, go ahead. Floor's yours.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: Talk about it. Go. College football stinks. Okay, what else?
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: Did we say that the last three weeks? Yeah. I did.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: So add on to that. Talk about it. You're just
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: one of them sheeple.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: Hey.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: Hey, coming out hot. That's what I'm saying. It is
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: what it is.
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: Until Thursday, we'll see something new happens on Thursday. Are
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: they going to play or are they not going to play?
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: I guess Jack Pyburn isn't.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: No, because he's a pro player.
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: Because he got an NFL contract, just like I tried
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: to tell some people that came up in here saying, bruh,
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: that he was going to make a team.
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: Well, Matt, me and you talked about it yesterday when
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: Jake was out. It's like, he led the preseason in sex.
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: How is another team not going to pick him up?
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: Or why would he not try, like, everything he could?
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: He's about to make $ 890, 000. $ 885, 000 is the rookie minimum.
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: With his former teammate. And, like, he wasn't going to
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: make $ 885, 000 at LSU.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: I hope not. No, there wasn't $ 8. 85 in the budget
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: left over. Sure there is. But even if he was, though, Tay-Tay,
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: even if he was.
• 5:38
  Speaker 5: I mean, just bet.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: No.
• 5:40
  Speaker 5: You're going to.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: Go make it. Because if he makes.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: That in the NFL, it's going to be much better
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: than starting over again if he made it in college.
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: Well, Matt brought up, which I appreciated the player perspective.
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: Matt was like, this is one more year until his pensions. Like,
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: this counts as a year. Why would you not stay?
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: Even if you made less money, you would still go
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: to the NFL.
• 6:01
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: Pension's a hell of a thing.
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: Oh, no, it is, but I'm just saying, too, like,
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: if he went back to college, then he wouldn't be
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: able to go back into the draft, and then he'd
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: be another undrafted free agent, and then start back over again. Like,
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: he built some equity up in the preseason. By leading
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: the NFL in sacks.
• 6:22
  Speaker 6: In three games, he doubled his sack amount in the
• 6:25
  Speaker 6: NFL that he had at LSU.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: Yes. So, yeah. Of course he went to the NFL.
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: Because he was in the NFL. Playing really well. You're
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: going to stay there if they give you the opportunity.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: Because it is superior football. Yes. You did this. What?
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: Starting a show like this. What? Yeah, I know. You
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: did it. I was just hedging my bet.
• 6:50
  Speaker 7: That's what they should have done for Jack Pyburn. Just
• 6:52
  Speaker 7: hedge it on Kalshi. Hedge his contract.
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: Is that real or did I get unked too?
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, did y'all get unked? Because I never did some
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: research on that. I never did research, obviously.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: Well, you sent it in the group. Let's see. Let's
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: see who. No, we don't. Live research it.
• 7:08
  Speaker 7: Sure.
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: Hand up. I was reading it while walking and I
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: read it and I was like, I don't know what
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: that means. So I just put it up. I didn't
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: look into it.
• 7:19
  Speaker 5: Well, that doesn't help.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: It doesn't help at all, Taylor. I'm sorry, man.
• 7:23
  Speaker 6: Alondra found my cord yesterday.
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: I did find the cord.
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: Yep.
• 7:32
  Speaker 6: So I don't know if I told the listeners, but
• 7:34
  Speaker 6: I lost the cord. It's very important to my life.
• 7:39
  Speaker 6: It connects my computer to the screen over here. And
• 7:42
  Speaker 6: I can't do radio. That's why I mispronounced a few
• 7:45
  Speaker 6: words yesterday.
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: That's why.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: Because I didn't have my second screen. The laundry founder.
• 7:51
  Speaker 7: Well, when we were in here yesterday, you were like,
• 7:54
  Speaker 7: my cord. And I was like, well, we got a
• 7:56
  Speaker 7: bunch of cords.
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: You're like, my cord.
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: My cord.
• 7:58
  Speaker 7: I was like, well, we got a bunch of cords.
• 8:00
  Speaker 7: I'm sure I can find you another C2C cord. And
• 8:03
  Speaker 7: you go, no, this cord was different.
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: This cord was built different. Okay, I guess. And then
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: I go to my office sitting on the chair.
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: Yep. Take me eyes, but not me cord. We found it.
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: I mean, how could you... Be expected to do a
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: show with one laptop screen.
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: Honestly, I couldn't be expected to.
• 8:25
  Speaker 6: Hey, I just told Jake, remember, if I'm leaving at
• 8:28
  Speaker 6: 9 today.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. Huck's got a first big tackle football pep rally.
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: Let's go. This morning.
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: Dude, we are never all going to be together for
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: a full week.
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: We were last week. I mean, so you got to
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: go to.
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: We were all here last week.
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: He left early one day.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: Had to go do the 18. And then he changed
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: the tire yesterday.
• 8:46
  Speaker 5: I mean, it's one hour.
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: Let me tell you something.
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: My right shoulder is on fire today. Yeah?
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah. From doing the lug nuts. Whoever put them son
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: of a guns on. Strong.
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: They put them on. It was probably the dealership, and
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: they always strip it because they use that.
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: Well, he's a gun. Yeah, and they do it way
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: too much. I had these two guns, but I didn't
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: have a gun. You know what I mean?
• 9:08
  Speaker 6: So your boy's shoulder, down and out. It was hotter
• 9:13
  Speaker 6: than hell out there, too. What was tougher, changing that
• 9:20
  Speaker 6: tire or moving the Flynn's furniture?
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: Tire. For sure? I wasn't sore after the Flynn furniture.
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: Sometimes when you're getting those lug nuts, you got to
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: stomp on them. No, that's what quarterbacks do. Don't do that.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: Be smart? Yep. No, I mean.
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: Save time dude sometimes there's sometimes there's dealerships they put
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: them on too much like i was standing on my
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: sister's one time like standing one tire iron jumping up
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: and down to get it off and it wouldn't i.
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: Got that donut on there though there we go yeah
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: and when got a new tire replace the donut we
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: got it figured out it didn't get towed? No, I
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: put a really nice sign in the front window like
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: I told you. Hey, I kind of work for LSU
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: somewhat on the weekends.
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: Did you put kind of? I'd really like it for
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: you not to tow this vehicle.
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: It's a U-High student. You can see it on the sticker.
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: Here's my media badge to prove it.
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: Yep. You didn't even sign your name. You just put
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: number 18? Yep. One eight. No, it's spelled out one eight.
• 10:20
  Speaker 7: 1A.
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: You put 3, 1A, but like big letters, 1A. And
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: it was kind of in a spot where it was
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: kind of hidden a little bit-ish. So they didn't read
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: the letter. They just didn't get over there. Probably.
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: And I just parked my truck in front of it,
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: and all these people are looking at me like, what's
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: this old guy doing?
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: Because all the kids are like 12 now that go
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: to college. Send them off for the help. Yes. Hey,
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: what's that old man doing over there changing that tire?
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: Not a one. Why is he cursing? They probably have
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: zero idea how to change the tire.
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: No.
• 10:57
  Speaker 7: But, you know, I will say something restored my faith
• 11:01
  Speaker 7: in the youths yesterday. I went to the gas station
• 11:05
  Speaker 7: and I get my car and there's a unhoused man
• 11:10
  Speaker 7: outside of the gas station. And there's like a group
• 11:14
  Speaker 7: of they look like young college kids. There's a group
• 11:16
  Speaker 7: of them. And I was already in my car. And
• 11:18
  Speaker 7: they get out, and they're talking to him, like, asking
• 11:22
  Speaker 7: if he needs anything, whatever.
• 11:23
  Speaker 5: And then one of them was like, can I pray
• 11:25
  Speaker 5: for you?
• 11:26
  Speaker 7: And they all gathered around him and prayed for the
• 11:29
  Speaker 7: homeless man.
• 11:30
  Speaker 5: And I was like, it really tugged at the heartstrings.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: Oh, that's beautiful.
• 11:33
  Speaker 7: I said my own little prayer in the car because, like,
• 11:35
  Speaker 7: I don't know. It just made me, like, very emotional
• 11:37
  Speaker 7: to see that.
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: Oh, that's beautiful.
• 11:38
  Speaker 7: And it restored my faith in, like, college kids because
• 11:40
  Speaker 7: I feel like they're all kind of crazy now.
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: I bet they prayed for him at my house.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: Kind of.
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's a logical choice.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: I love that. That's great.
• 11:51
  Speaker 6: That's a good morning starter right there.
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 11:54
  Speaker 5: Murphy, Sam, and Jody are bringing that.
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: That is.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: A little tug at the heartstrings, make you feel good.
• 11:58
  Speaker 5: It really tugged at my heartstrings. And I'm not somebody
• 12:02
  Speaker 5: whose heartstrings get tugged.
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: That's a good reminder for everybody out there just to,
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: you know.
• 12:06
  Speaker 5: Be nice.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: To pray.
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: Yeah, pray, be nice. Eat, pray, love.
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: Amen.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: Eat, pray, love. All those things are really good.
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: That's a movie.
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Julia Roberts? Is it?
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: That's right. That's right. Hold on. I feel like, have
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: I heard this, but it's not Live Life Love. You
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: looked like I made that up. He thought you were
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: making a Hobby Lobby song. Yeah, he did. Yeah, I did.
• 12:30
  Speaker 5: No, that's a movie. Well, it's a book.
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: That's like, I've seen that on a shirt before.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: Well, all right. We'll start. We'll start. Still one ear
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: over here. Why don't you get new headphones? I'm going to. No,
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: you're not.
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: I had to help people move over last weekend. It
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: would be a nice stocking stuffer.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: For you this year. It would be nice.
• 13:00
  Speaker 6: Yeah, you should just get some new ones because you
• 13:02
  Speaker 6: complain about them every day. So you complain about a
• 13:05
  Speaker 6: lot of stuff every day.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: That's a good point. It's therapeutic for me. Me too.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: Well, it's not therapeutic. They worked yesterday. They don't work today.
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: I blame Hunt. Did you say you had a JV
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: game yesterday? Yeah. Okay. Against Dunham. Did you really? The
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: school that your children go to. I got to be
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: honest with you. Hand in the air. Dunham looked good, too.
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: I didn't even know they had a JV team. They probably, like,
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: you hide. They don't have a freshman team. We only
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: have a JV. We don't have enough kids for a
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: freshman team. Well, obviously, I knew the high school team.
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: Which I wish they did so the freshmen could get it.
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: There's a lot of young kids at Dunham that play
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: on the varsity team. So, I honestly didn't even know
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: they had a JV team.
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: Sure, it's like. You know, like rotating twos, probably play
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: JV to get reps. I guess so. Yeah, because I
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: know they got two. Quarterback can spin it. I don't
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: know who he was, but he can spin it. He
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: definitely didn't work with you.
• 14:00
  Speaker 6: That guy's got quarterbacks at all the levels, dude. Seventh
• 14:03
  Speaker 6: and eighth grade, they got it as well. So they
• 14:05
  Speaker 6: got a fifth and sixth grade middle school team. They
• 14:07
  Speaker 6: got seventh and eighth. Shout out to Dunham fifth and
• 14:12
  Speaker 6: sixth grade team.
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: Took the field for the first time yesterday. Oh, yeah.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: How'd that go? We lost.
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: But.
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: But. Good tries?
• 14:20
  Speaker 6: A lot of good tries. Now, let me say, I
• 14:23
  Speaker 6: was very proud of the boys. They put the pads on.
• 14:25
  Speaker 6: They strapped that. They put on a game uniform for
• 14:27
  Speaker 6: the first time. We're mostly fifth. I would say probably
• 14:30
  Speaker 6: 80% of the team's fifth graders on our team.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: Played St. George. The Dragons, who came out with a victory. Congratulations.
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: But how could you not with a name like Dragon?
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean? I knew you'd like that.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: I was surprised your kids didn't go there.
• 14:42
  Speaker 6: But it was, they went out there, and after the game,
• 14:46
  Speaker 6: didn't see any, like, Tears, sad faces, smiles.
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: It was good. You just never know. Because the temperatures outside,
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: they didn't have a lot of practices where they could
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: go and hit because they followed the heat rules.
• 15:01
  Speaker 6: There wasn't a lot of full padded practices that they had.
• 15:04
  Speaker 6: It was the first year playing tackle. You get it.
• 15:08
  Speaker 6: A little bit, you know, some belly bumping out there,
• 15:12
  Speaker 6: things like that.
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: But it was fun. What's my man Huck playing? Belly bumping?
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: That's a thing. What? What's Huck playing? Oh, left tackle.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: Holding it down. Oh, yeah, he is.
• 15:23
  Speaker 4: Got that blindside money. Yeah, it's a lefty quarterback. Frontside.
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: Some say that's even more important. There's headhunting out there.
• 15:37
  Speaker 5: Pikachu, honey.
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: What do they.
• 15:40
  Speaker 4: Call it when you're looking for it?
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: Pikachu?
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: Pikachu? Yeah, but like if you're looking for it.
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: Okay, chew.

• 17:31
  Speaker 2: Thank you. All right, welcome back in.
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: OTB here live from the Raising Cane Studio. Our Tuesday
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: show is brought to you by our friends over at
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: Community Steel. CommunitySteelCo.com is the website right there in Gonzales, Louisiana.
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: Buildings, sheeting, components, CommunitySteelCo.com. We'll check it out today.
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: All right, so a bunch of people had it yesterday,
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: but obviously I've been following our guy, Ross Dellinger, pretty
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: close with all the stuff going on with LSU and
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: the SEC. He joined us on Friday to talk about
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: a separate issue, and now here is a new one.
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: And he put it out there yesterday, of course, that
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: SEC school executives are exploring extreme measures in order to
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: address LSU's attempts to add former professional players.
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: Potential measures could include.
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: Boycotting competition, sanctioning the school with probation, or saying, holler
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: at your boy. Kicking them out of the SEC, which
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: I don't think it's going to get to that. So
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: the SEC is digging its heels in, at least it
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: looks like on paper. Now, I don't know Commissioner Sankey
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: to be someone that backs down. I don't know him
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: to be somebody that's just going to go away with this.
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: I know sometimes the NCAA, most of the time, the
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: NCAA threatens, but they don't do anything. But I do
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: feel like Commissioner Sankey is a different beast. So now
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: we've got an old standoff. And I'm not sure how
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: this is going to play out. I'm not sure who's
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: going to air quotes, when the winner or loser, whatever.
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: But I don't.
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: Think commissioner is saying he's going to forget about this either.
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: That's the other part of it.
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't think there's outside of LSU fans.
• 19:40
  Speaker 6: I don't think there's a, a win situation for LSU
• 19:44
  Speaker 6: in this standoff. If that's what you want to call it. Like,
• 19:48
  Speaker 6: if you win the court case, you get a failed
• 19:52
  Speaker 6: NFL tight end and defensive lineman. You get more depth
• 19:57
  Speaker 6: at tight end and defensive line, but you had a
• 19:59
  Speaker 6: team before these guys. If you don't, guess air quote
• 20:08
  Speaker 6: like when then you don't get those players so like
• 20:10
  Speaker 6: i don't know what the if i hate that it's
• 20:13
  Speaker 6: dragged on this long and i hate that it's week
• 20:17
  Speaker 6: one going into the first clemson game something we've been
• 20:20
  Speaker 6: so excited about um and looking forward to for so
• 20:23
  Speaker 6: long and we're dealing with this bs like that's this
• 20:27
  Speaker 6: is this is what i'm frustrated about mostly is um
• 20:31
  Speaker 6: I don't want to be dealing with this. It's not
• 20:33
  Speaker 6: worth it to bring these players, like to deal with
• 20:35
  Speaker 6: all this stuff. Wait till Thursday to finalize your roster
• 20:37
  Speaker 6: or Friday to finalize your roster.
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: Before week one.
• 20:42
  Speaker 6: It's it's frustrating. I think, I think it's frustrating for everybody.
• 20:45
  Speaker 6: I would, I would assume it's frustrating whether you're, what's
• 20:47
  Speaker 6: your opinion on it is I get it, how everybody's
• 20:50
  Speaker 6: going to have a different opinion, like whatever it takes,
• 20:52
  Speaker 6: you know, embrace the villain, whatever it takes, like get
• 20:55
  Speaker 6: your roster better, be on the cutting edge, Gain the
• 20:58
  Speaker 6: competitive advantage if they let you do it. I get
• 21:00
  Speaker 6: all that. I understand every point of view on this.
• 21:03
  Speaker 6: I don't quite have that same point of view. I'm
• 21:05
  Speaker 6: somewhere probably in the middle. I can see both sides
• 21:09
  Speaker 6: of everything on this. I just don't know how LSU
• 21:17
  Speaker 6: wins a standoff with the SEC. I feel like Sankey's
• 21:21
  Speaker 6: about that action. And it's 15 against one, and it's
• 21:27
  Speaker 6: the entire country versus LSU. Well, that too, but just specifically.
• 21:32
  Speaker 6: They thought enough about this. Even though LSU's not alone
• 21:35
  Speaker 6: in this situation. It's certainly the spirit of this thing.
• 21:39
  Speaker 6: They're not alone.
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: But then the vote's 15 to nada, and you didn't vote. Yeah.
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: You know?
• 21:47
  Speaker 6: It's not a great look, and I'm going to be
• 21:49
  Speaker 6: real upset if LSU gets kicked.
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: Out of the SEC.
• 21:51
  Speaker 7: You say, like, get it by any means, make your
• 21:53
  Speaker 7: roster better however you need to, whatever. But, like, how
• 21:56
  Speaker 7: much better do those two players actually make your roster?
• 22:00
  Speaker 5: Like, is it worth the trouble.
• 22:01
  Speaker 7: Of going what you're going through right now? And, like,
• 22:04
  Speaker 7: I just feel like it's Lane Kiffin being a little stubborn.
• 22:07
  Speaker 7: It's Lane Kiffin being Lane Kiffin.
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: Nobody's worth the trouble.
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: It's an ego move now.
• 22:12
  Speaker 7: It's Lane Kiffin being Lane Kiffin right now is what's happening.
• 22:15
  Speaker 6: I was going to say, is the– There's no price
• 22:16
  Speaker 6: worth the price. No, there's nothing worth it. There's nothing
• 22:20
  Speaker 6: worth the price. Even if there's a 0.01% chance that
• 22:26
  Speaker 6: you get kicked out of the SEC.
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: Right. It's a chance.
• 22:30
  Speaker 6: It's not a 0% chance. Like, what are we doing?
• 22:33
  Speaker 6: What are we flirting with this for? Like, if you
• 22:36
  Speaker 6: push the envelope as far as you can, right?
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: And this is a area....
• 22:45
  Speaker 6: It's not a point of no return, but nobody knows
• 22:50
  Speaker 6: how far you can push the boundaries. Nobody knows. And
• 22:53
  Speaker 6: so Lane's pushing them. He's gaining that, like, I get it.
• 22:57
  Speaker 6: He was hired to win, win at all costs, whatever.
• 23:01
  Speaker 6: Is it worth it?
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: No.
• 23:03
  Speaker 6: As soon as you get resistance and as soon as
• 23:06
  Speaker 6: people say, all right, it's gone a little too far now.
• 23:10
  Speaker 6: Now we're getting together, the entire SEC, and there's a
• 23:12
  Speaker 6: chance– We're threatening that membership.
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: And it's like, okay, well, that's enough.
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: And I'm with you as far as, like, I can
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: see some of the reasons why they're like, hold up, well,
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: that happened at that school, and they were allowed to
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: come play. It's like, we want these players. Like, I
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: get all of that. I think the pro stuff does
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: muddy the water, to say the least. Like, that's the
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: thing that people, and look, we did. We talked about it.
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: because there's things that we learned when we were in
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: NFL meeting rooms that even before we played a game
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: that we felt like were a big advantage for us.
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: But at the end of the day, it's like, I
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: get what you're.
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: Saying about like, Hey, they did this at that school and.
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: He got an extra year, like kind of just because
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: I do get that.
• 23:57
  Speaker 6: All things aren't fair and all things aren't equal in life.
• 24:00
  Speaker 6: So if you want things to be fair, if you
• 24:02
  Speaker 6: think you're going to get treated like the same person,
• 24:04
  Speaker 6: like everybody else that like, life isn't fair i don't
• 24:08
  Speaker 6: care what basketball does i don't.
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: Care what goes back to bad luck i don't care
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: what soccer does i don't care what these other sports
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: do you know why because it's not football and football
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: really is all that matters if you want to tick
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: people off or make people happy that is really all
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: that matters you're gonna mess with somebody's stuff you can
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: mess with other things don't mess.
• 24:26
  Speaker 6: With football don't mess with football and this is and
• 24:29
  Speaker 6: and you can compare little like one-off cases here, there,
• 24:33
  Speaker 6: and certainly in basketball the last year or two. Like,
• 24:36
  Speaker 6: you can make these comparisons. Well, they didn't do it
• 24:38
  Speaker 6: for this, but they did do it for that. It
• 24:40
  Speaker 6: doesn't matter.
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: Don't mess with football. Don't mess with the prize cow.
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: The bell cow. The bell cow. Oh, the prize cow.
• 24:49
  Speaker 6: Well, I was thinking there's a prize something. There's a
• 24:51
  Speaker 6: prize something. There's another saying out there.
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: Don't mess with that.
• 24:56
  Speaker 5: Don't write checks your ass can't cash.
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: I like that, but you were so close.
• 25:01
  Speaker 5: I feel like that doesn't go with what this is
• 25:02
  Speaker 5: talking about.
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: I'm brand, though.
• 25:05
  Speaker 4: You were talking about Sanky being about that action. Yeah,
• 25:08
  Speaker 4: it's football, and that's why you make a brash statement
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: of we're going to kick him out of the SEC.
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: The SEC is not going to kick LSU out. They're
• 25:16
  Speaker 4: never going to do that.
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: There's a 0% chance? I think there is a 0% chance.
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: 0.000000?
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: What if he keeps pushing the boundaries or pushing the limits?
• 25:26
  Speaker 4: I just think that that's what Lane does when he
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: pushes the boundaries. But I just look at it like
• 25:35
  Speaker 4: if you kick out LSU, in all likelihood, you're going
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: to have to bring in an inferior program. And then
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: let's say LSU goes to someone like the Big Ten who,
• 25:43
  Speaker 4: let's be honest, you're already behind right now because they've
• 25:45
  Speaker 4: won the last three national titles. Like, does the SEC
• 25:48
  Speaker 4: really want to do that?
• 25:49
  Speaker 6: I mean, I don't think the SEC is, of course,
• 25:54
  Speaker 6: like I said, 0%. 0.01% is not 0%, though. And
• 26:00
  Speaker 6: if they got to that 0.01%, it would probably be
• 26:04
  Speaker 6: with a blessing of.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: The other conferences.
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: So you'd be sitting there scheduling Notre Dame eight times
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: a year. And UConn. And UConn. They're independent as well.
• 26:17
  Speaker 5: Would we get an automatic bid like Notre Dame?
• 26:19
  Speaker 6: That's true. That's true. Maybe that's what we're doing. Maybe
• 26:23
  Speaker 6: that's the chess play. We're all just thinking about checkers.
• 26:28
  Speaker 5: Maybe so.
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: But another portion of it is it's not– I mean,
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: I agree with you, football being the bell cow.
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: Prize cow. Nope.
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: That's just you saying that. But for LSU, they're in
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: the headlines for basketball as well. Like, they're the main
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: basketball school in this and the main football school in this.
• 26:47
  Speaker 6: Yeah. It's good to be first. But, like, do we
• 26:53
  Speaker 6: have to be first in everything? We just, like, let
• 26:56
  Speaker 6: someone else do it first and then we do it second?
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: At all things. Like, maybe just, like, one time, sit
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: one out.
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: I'm with you, though, about, like, it ain't worth all this.
• 27:13
  Speaker 6: Let somebody else take a tight end that got cut.
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: Let them do it first, and then we'll do this.
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: Dude, he was awesome in Lane's system last year, but, like,
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: if LSU fails to make the college football playoff at
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: the end of the season, I'm not going to be like,
• 27:24
  Speaker 4: damn it, if we just had Daquan right now.
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: We just had Daquan right now.
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: I don't see that being the case.
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: Like, this isn't a situation where if the ruling doesn't
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: go LSU's way, I don't see LSU, like, fighting tooth
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: and nail. Or I should say, I don't see them
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: trying to play the players and see what happens. Like,
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: I don't see that portion of it. I think if
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: there's a ruling on Thursday they can't play, then they
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: won't play. Like, I don't see it being a situation
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: like that. The ruling on Thursday is temporary as well. Like,
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: the real court case would be months, like, months away.
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 28:01
  Speaker 5: Probably in the middle of the college football day.
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: The point is, I think they're going to follow what
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: the courts say. Yeah. I mean, they don't have time
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: to fight it.
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: Either way, I think they're going to follow what the
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: courts say.
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: I mean, they don't have time to fight it. They
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: play a game the next day. Well, they're not going
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: to be in the courtroom fighting it. Their attorneys are.
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: What if they get deposed? Courts aren't open on that.
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: Here's my question. What happens?
• 28:28
  Speaker 6: Okay, here's a hypothetical question. Okay, so this is. Thursday
• 28:31
  Speaker 6: would be like a temporary ruling. The real court case,
• 28:35
  Speaker 6: months in advance. What happens if months in advance it
• 28:38
  Speaker 6: rules against.
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: LSU? Do they go back and give sanctions? I know
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: you asked that yesterday. Do they give the sanctions?
• 28:50
  Speaker 6: Because the threat is a coach will be suspended or
• 28:52
  Speaker 6: whatever for half a year. Do they go back and
• 28:54
  Speaker 6: rule like, okay, this is illegal, what he did, blah, blah, blah?
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we won the case, so we're going to enforce
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: what we said we were going to enforce.
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, even though the season's already over. And then try
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: to parlay that into the next season. Boot will soon
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: meet ball.
• 29:11
  Speaker 4: Heck, I was for ball.
• 29:12
  Speaker 5: I can't wait for that boot to meet that ball.
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: That boot. Oh, all right. Such a tiny little shoe, too.
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: It's not even close to a boot.
• 29:20
  Speaker 5: Can you imagine Blake Groupie's tiny little shoe?
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: It's like T-Bob size.
• 29:25
  Speaker 5: Like way smaller.
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: It's like North Pole size.
• 29:27
  Speaker 5: It's going to be like Huck. Like Huck shoes.
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: I don't know. He's got to get some big feet.
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: I saw a video like literally yesterday. Somebody was making
• 29:36
  Speaker 4: fun of Blake Grimby, and he was signing autographs. And
• 29:38
  Speaker 4: I was like, he looks like a little kid signing autographs.
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: He got released, right?
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: But he just got picked up by somebody else.
• 29:45
  Speaker 5: By somebody else. The Jets, maybe?
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: The kicker shuffle, yeah.
• 29:49
  Speaker 5: I don't know. Somebody where it was, like, meaningful football.
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so the Colts had dropped him, and then the
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: Jets picked him up.
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: Aw, that's cute.
• 29:57
  Speaker 5: Hey, but means Cleveland practice squad.
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: Okay, bub.
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: All right, bub.
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: All right, bub. Say, bub. Cleveland's a good spot to be.
• 30:05
  Speaker 5: I mean, they got Shador.
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: Careers last a long time up there.
• 30:08
  Speaker 5: They got Deshaun Watson and Shador. Maybe Dylan Gabriel?
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they put him on IR, which I think that
• 30:15
  Speaker 4: was just a way to keep four quarterbacks because I
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: don't think he got hurt. And then they also kept
• 30:19
  Speaker 4: Talon Green.
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: It's a little odd. Daniel Basham said.
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: I bet they only used one penny to bronze T-Bob's
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: baby shoes.
• 30:32
  Speaker 5: One penny?
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: Little feet.
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and a lot of chats say you can't go
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: back and punish somebody after the fact.
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: Yes, normally. Who says what's normal about any of this anymore?
• 30:45
  Speaker 6: I think people are outside LSU. People are hating Lane
• 30:51
  Speaker 6: that much that they will try. I can't wait.
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: To see Lane put up 45 against Dabo.
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: After Dabo's fall down as he runs out of Tiger Stadium.
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: Ooh, I like it.
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: I like that. Dabo.
• 31:14
  Speaker 5: The Clemson fans should do that.
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: They should do that. It would be so amazing for them, too.
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: A dab? Dabo.
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: While storming the field after beating Weber State or something?
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. Dabo.
• 31:27
  Speaker 7: Hey, Thibodeau wants us to move on to the game
• 31:30
  Speaker 7: happening this week.
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: Thank you, Thibodeau.
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: If anybody wants to move on to the game, it's OTB.
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: Believe you me. Unfortunately. I'm glad you said it. We
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: have to blast the court ruling Thursday.
• 31:45
  Speaker 5: What if we just ignore it?
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: We will.
• 31:48
  Speaker 6: Should we do that? Every time someone brings up a
• 31:51
  Speaker 6: court case, someone does a fart noise.
• 31:52
  Speaker 4: What are you talking about?
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: We'll get it loaded up. All right, we've got to
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: take a break. More OTB when we come back.
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: Off the bench.
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: All right, it is the Second Amendment Tax-Free Weekend at
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: Bowie Outfitters Friday through Sunday, September 4th, 5th, and 6th.
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: Firearms, ammo, suppressors, bows.
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: And hunting supplies are all completely tax-free, and Bowie is
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: covering the tax on everything else. So the entire store
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: is 100% tax-free. Plus, you can skip the lines, come
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: in now, and put any firearm suppressor or bow on
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: hold for tax-free weekend. And with sales throughout the store,
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: you can stack up some of the biggest savings of
• 32:27
  Speaker 3: the year.
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: Check them out right on Perkins Road.
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: There in Baton Rouge because 10% off is nice, but
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: keeping the government from taking that 10%, somehow that just
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: feels a whole lot better.
• 32:38
  Speaker 6: Yeah, you know that feeling you used to get as
• 32:39
  Speaker 6: a kid, child for you, Jacob, As a child, and
• 32:43
  Speaker 6: you go to Toys R Us or like KB Toys
• 32:46
  Speaker 6: in the mall, you go to that toy store, that
• 32:47
  Speaker 6: feeling you'd get, that's the feeling you get as an
• 32:50
  Speaker 6: adult going into Bowie Outfitters.
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: It's fantastic.
• 32:52
  Speaker 6: Get ready for hunting season and do it in style
• 32:54
  Speaker 6: and do it tax-free weekend, baby.
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: It's coming. Get your ammo. Get your hunting gear. BowieOutfitters.com.
• 33:10

  Speaker 2: get to my eye. You get to my eye. Everybody
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: knows you ain't doing that.
• 34:50
  Speaker 5: I was about to say, are you doing that?
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: You get to my eye. Give me five bucks. You
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: get to my eye. You pay for my eye. You
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: pay for my eye. There you go. That's better. That
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: is more on brand for you. We're in a business, y'all.
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: Nobody said you were. But you acting like you were Oprah,
• 35:04
  Speaker 3: throwing it out into the crowd, we all.
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: Know that ain't the case.
• 35:06
  Speaker 5: It's false advertising.
• 35:07
  Speaker 7: It is.
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: But you could do that. See, but you didn't leave
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: with that. You got to lead with that next time.
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: Shout out Oprah. Sure. All right.
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: There is an actual game this weekend in Baton Rouge.
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: It is going to feature college game day. It is
• 35:28
  Speaker 3: going to be LSU versus Clemson. Now, Clemson is not
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: the same Clemson that they were for a long time.
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: Last year, I think we all thought they were going
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: to be really good, and they had a lot of
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: returning players.
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: They lost a lot to the NFL. It's more of
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: an unknown Clemson team at this point.
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: There's not a lot of players that you're going to
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: recognize because, again, they lost a ton, and they're not
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: a team that's going to do a heavy deep dive
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: into the transfer portal. It's just not who they are.
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: It's not who they've been. It's not who they're going
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: to be. Now, they've done a little more than they
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: have in the past, but again, I think it's probably
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: gonna have four starters on defense through the portal you
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: might have a rotational piece through the portal on offense
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: so it's not like LSU's roster when you take a
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: look at it but again it is more than they've
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: ever done before.
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: They basically just named their starting.
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: Quarterback and they haven't technically even done it you kind
• 36:32
  Speaker 3: of know through watching practice and listening to the reports
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: so it is a big unknown it is a team
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: that Like, Brian Wesko's played a bunch before, so you
• 36:41
  Speaker 3: kind of know the name, but there's not household names
• 36:45
  Speaker 3: at Clemson. That doesn't mean me sitting here saying they
• 36:48
  Speaker 3: can't be a good football team. It doesn't mean that
• 36:50
  Speaker 3: they're just going to lay down and LSU's going to,
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: you know, not have an opponent on Saturday.
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: They're a talented group. It's Clemson.
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: But in years past, we've been able to give you
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: names that have played for Clemson because they've been stars
• 37:01
  Speaker 3: in college for a year, two years, sometimes three years,
• 37:05
  Speaker 3: and they just don't have that this year.
• 37:08
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, last year, leading up to the season,
• 37:11
  Speaker 6: we had... Us, Peter Woods, TJ Parker, Cade Klubnick. Cade Klubnick,
• 37:15
  Speaker 6: who was thought to be a Heisman contender, was definitely
• 37:19
  Speaker 6: going to be a first-rounder, obviously. We had so much
• 37:23
  Speaker 6: to talk about when it comes to Clemson. And this year,
• 37:27
  Speaker 6: Dabo has been very... He's kind of been like the
• 37:29
  Speaker 6: opposite of Lane. Been very stubborn to adjust to this
• 37:32
  Speaker 6: new age of college athletics and college football in the
• 37:36
  Speaker 6: NIL era.
• 37:38
  Speaker 3: And....
• 37:40
  Speaker 6: There might be more unknowns with them than there is
• 37:42
  Speaker 6: for LSU. There's just because you just don't know what
• 37:45
  Speaker 6: they have. They literally have not even named him as
• 37:48
  Speaker 6: the starting quarterback in this most important position out there. Yeah, okay,
• 37:51
  Speaker 6: you can look at it and be like, all right,
• 37:52
  Speaker 6: he's taken most of the first-team reps, blah, blah, blah.
• 37:54
  Speaker 6: But technically, the QB competition, air quotes, is still alive
• 38:00
  Speaker 6: in Clemson.
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: That's just how unsure it's all been, how much of
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: an unknown.
• 38:04
  Speaker 6: And I don't know if Dabo thinks that's a competitive
• 38:07
  Speaker 6: advantage for them going against LSU. LSU, they don't got
• 38:12
  Speaker 6: time to scout your quarterbacks. They got cases to do.
• 38:18
  Speaker 6: But I just think that it's just there's so much unknown.
• 38:21
  Speaker 6: You could see the result of this game going a
• 38:24
  Speaker 6: lot of different ways. I just don't see a result
• 38:26
  Speaker 6: of which they beat LSU in Tiger Stadium. I think
• 38:30
  Speaker 6: there's a better chance that we beat them by 20
• 38:32
  Speaker 6: than it is that we lose to them.
• 38:33
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 38:39
  Speaker 6: There's unknowns for both of these coaching staffs in preparation
• 38:44
  Speaker 6: for the, that's how weak ones are. And even more
• 38:46
  Speaker 6: so this day and age, when there's brand new rosters
• 38:50
  Speaker 6: every year, there's so much unknown. I think the unknown
• 38:53
  Speaker 6: for LSU is way more dangerous than the unknown for Clemson.
• 38:58
  Speaker 6: That is why, that's why I'm coming up with that.
• 39:00
  Speaker 6: That's why I'm saying the unknown for us is way
• 39:03
  Speaker 6: more dangerous with Talent you brought in at quarterback, receiver,
• 39:08
  Speaker 6: the improvements to the offense, the stability on the defense
• 39:11
  Speaker 6: with the added talent. Plus, you bring in a brand
• 39:14
  Speaker 6: new offense that LSU fans and LSU has never, ever
• 39:18
  Speaker 6: even thought about getting to. The type of offense that's
• 39:21
  Speaker 6: about to run. Now, I'm not saying it is going
• 39:23
  Speaker 6: to be dangerous, but the threat of that unknown is
• 39:25
  Speaker 6: way more dangerous than the threat of Clemson with a
• 39:28
  Speaker 6: new redshirt junior quarterback.
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: That they haven't even named a starter yet on a Tuesday.
• 39:33
  Speaker 4: When you can point to one or two guys and
• 39:35
  Speaker 4: be like, hey, these are the guys you need to
• 39:36
  Speaker 4: watch out for, that's an issue. Will Held's great. He
• 39:39
  Speaker 4: had 15 tackles for a loss last year, seven and
• 39:42
  Speaker 4: a half sacks. Awesome defensive end. He might be a problem,
• 39:46
  Speaker 4: but Sammy Brown's good. Outside of that, yeah, there's unknown
• 39:49
  Speaker 4: They're running back Gideon Davidson. If sports references to be correct,
• 39:53
  Speaker 4: which they normally are, he's yet to have a collegiate touchdown.
• 39:56
  Speaker 4: Like there's a complete unknown in their backfield.
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 40:00
  Speaker 4: Bryant Wesco and TJ Moore are back at receiver. They're
• 40:03
  Speaker 4: really good players. They are solid players, but you're going
• 40:06
  Speaker 4: to need a little bit more than that with a
• 40:08
  Speaker 4: first time starting quarterback year four in the system, but
• 40:11
  Speaker 4: he started one game at Clemson. So far, he was
• 40:13
  Speaker 4: good last year against SMU and his one start. I
• 40:16
  Speaker 4: think he had like three 15, three touchdowns, no turnovers,
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: but I mean, that's all we've seen of him.
• 40:21
  Speaker 6: You could clip what I said about, you know, that
• 40:24
  Speaker 6: we beat him by 20, then we lose, like, to
• 40:26
  Speaker 6: make that a huge homework.
• 40:27
  Speaker 3: I heard you say you got a better chance of
• 40:29
  Speaker 3: pissing in a hot sauce bottle than Clemson beating LSU.
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: That's what I heard.
• 40:32
  Speaker 6: And I'm just looking at strictly what you just said.
• 40:36
  Speaker 6: There are so many unknowns. There are so many things
• 40:38
  Speaker 6: going against them. And I just don't think there's a
• 40:42
  Speaker 6: chance that LSU does not beat Clemson.
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a chance. Of course there is. But there's
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: a better chance of beating him by 20. I heard
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: what I heard. All right, we'll take a break.
• 40:53

  Speaker 1: Off the Bench with Jacob Hester and Matt Flynn, presented
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: by Community Steel.
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: All right, welcome back in, OTP.
• 42:39
  Speaker 3: We certainly want to also pay our respects to Jerry Stovall.
• 42:44
  Speaker 3: Thoughts and prayers to the Stovall family. He passed away yesterday.
• 42:49
  Speaker 3: And this is somebody that LSU threw and threw, for sure.
• 42:53
  Speaker 3: I mean, 1962, unanimous All-American. 1962, he was runner-up to
• 43:00
  Speaker 3: the Heisman Trophy. Two-time NFL All-Pro selection with the St.
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: Louis Cardinals.
• 43:05
  Speaker 3: 1977 LSU Hall of Fame inductee, 1982 Walter Camp National
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: Coach of the Year. And then in 2010, he got
• 43:15
  Speaker 3: into the College Football Hall of Fame. So as a player,
• 43:17
  Speaker 3: as a coach for the Fighting Tigers, Jerry Stovall gave
• 43:21
  Speaker 3: you everything that he had. Again, he was as LSU
• 43:24
  Speaker 3: as LSU can be. His number hangs up in Tiger
• 43:28
  Speaker 3: Stadium for a great reason. And he passed away yesterday.
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: So always enjoy my conversations with him. I had a handful.
• 43:36
  Speaker 3: I'm sure you did as well, Matt. And somebody that
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: we will dearly miss and somebody that absolutely loved LSU
• 43:43
  Speaker 3: with everything he had.
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: That's right. We celebrate an LSU legend. And, of course, yeah,

  Speaker 2: I had a, like.
• 43:48

  Speaker 6: with him and always enjoyed him and respected him.

  Speaker 2: The age 85 passes away. So we celebrate.

  Speaker 6: the life, the legend.
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: And, um, well done, sir.
• 44:08
  Speaker 3: That's one of the cool things about playing at a place.
• 44:11
  Speaker 3: And maybe it's like this other places. I just don't
• 44:14
  Speaker 3: hear about it, but I think about the conversations that
• 44:18
  Speaker 3: you and I have been able to have, you know,
• 44:19
  Speaker 3: be a part of and, you know, here and there
• 44:21
  Speaker 3: in passing, whatever it might be.
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: Some are more in depth, but.
• 44:24
  Speaker 3: With Jerry Stovall and Billy Cannon and Jimmy Taylor, like,
• 44:29
  Speaker 3: I just think about our, opportunities that we had to
• 44:32
  Speaker 3: be able to sit down, talk football, talk LSU with
• 44:35
  Speaker 3: legends like that, because everyone comes back to LSU.
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: Everybody comes back to Baton Rouge.
• 44:41
  Speaker 3: Like I will never forget being in the training room
• 44:44
  Speaker 3: and it was Jerry Stovall and Jim Taylor sitting there
• 44:46
  Speaker 3: having a conversation with me as I'm getting my ankles taped.
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I'm like, I'm trying to be cool in the moment,
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: but I'm like, these are.
• 44:52
  Speaker 6: Yeah, but you're trying to be, but you're also like
• 44:54
  Speaker 6: a dumb college kid and you have no idea really.
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: Like you have an idea.
• 44:59
  Speaker 6: But not the same admiration that we do now as adults.
• 45:05
  Speaker 6: As a college kid, you're kind of dumb a little
• 45:07
  Speaker 6: bit about the whole world, and you take a lot
• 45:09
  Speaker 6: of those things for granted.
• 45:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, you know who I appreciate making sure that
• 45:12
  Speaker 3: I knew exactly the ins and outs?
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: Jim Marucci. Well, yeah, that, for sure. But also Jack Marucci, too.
• 45:19
  Speaker 3: Jack would come in, he'd tell you who it was,
• 45:21
  Speaker 3: and the light bulb would go off like, oh, that's
• 45:24
  Speaker 3: Jim Taylor, that's Billy.
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: Cannon, that's Jerry Stovall, whoever it might be. So, again.
• 45:29
  Speaker 3: I want to thank Jerry Stovall for everything he did
• 45:32
  Speaker 3: for LSU. He is one of the pillars of LSU athletics,
• 45:35
  Speaker 3: LSU football, and truly will have a mark that will
• 45:39
  Speaker 3: never go away and will stand the test of time.
• 45:41
  Speaker 3: So rest in peace, Jerry Stovall. And again, prayers to
• 45:45
  Speaker 3: his family. It is never easy losing a legend like that.
• 45:48
  Speaker 3: And again, somebody that loved LSU with everything he had.
