  Speaker 1: right Yeah, but I can't.
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: You gotta be the guy. I be the guy because
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: he trusts me. I bring it up and then you
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: just sit there and you don't talk. Can you do that?
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Can you just make noises. That's a hell of a chadow.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: Try just try to make a noise. That's a hell
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: of a channel. Oh I can make noises. But like
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: not being able to discuss his big night tonight. He
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: wants you, he brings he told you about this. I
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: know all the details now, but I'm not allowed to
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: say it on the radio because he thinks I'm a
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: curse his situation, the way I have so many sports teams.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: Oh, he'll do that on his own. That is true.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: He doesn't think he has anything to do with this.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: He's so part of the story. He keeps going to
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: the same first aid place over and over again, same spot.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: Walker Male said, it's a definition of crazy to get
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: strikeout every time, yet you keep going back to the
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: same venue.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: I know you figure you just want to shake it
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: up a little bit, just for mojo purposes. But anyway,
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: I'm not talking about it. I'm not talking about what's
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: going on tonight.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: So later on in the show, I'll explain in what
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: the belief seven twenty five, there's a chance I may
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: have accidentally found a woman for flounder. Okay, there you go,
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: an older, angry woman in the neighborhood that I think
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: might might be that might be one for Flounder. I
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: think I found a one for Flounder just walking walking Murphy.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: I ended up in a conversation I didn't want to
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: be in, and I think, you know what, this one's
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: great for flowner.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: Okay, that's awesome. That's nice of you to be thinking
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: of him like that.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: Bone. It really is.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: Oh man, all right, So we've got a big event tonight.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: I'm not allowed to discuss in Phitty's life. We got
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: Braves and Dodgers, big series tonight. We're actually going to
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: talk to Brandon godon Braves play by play voice at
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: nine o'clock on the show today. I h this a
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: big one and the Braves need to write this ship
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: a little bit.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: Man.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: It has not necessarily Bone only won Sunday night to
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: salvage a game against Milwaukee. But it hasn't necessarily been
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: a great stretch for them here. The lineup hasn't necessarily
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: been firing on all cylinders. So this will be a
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: big series tonight, Bravos. They just they can't fully bury
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: the Phillies. They did early.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: Then Don Mattingly took over and the Phillies rallied themselves
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: and then at the All Star break the Braves. After
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: that they buried the Phillies again. But this recent stretch,
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: the Phillies are only three and a half back. It
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: was almost two the other day until the Braves won,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: and then the Phillies lost the game here, but they
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: still play seven more times. I still would say the
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Braves win the East, but they just can't fully put
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: them away. And we thought twice they were buried, and
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: the Phillies just keep kind of hanging in there a
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: little bit.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: Braves have lost seven of ten and ten of sixteen. Yeah,
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: so they've I know there's been some tough games on
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: the schedu Jelu, but this is gonna be no different
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: against the Dodgers. So, uh, we'll see if they turn
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: it around. I'm not gonna lie to your bone. I
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: care way more about football to care a lot of Panthers.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: But that is a big series for the Braves tonight.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: A lot of injury situations to discuss here bone from
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: yesterday's practice and by the way, there's only one practice
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: left in training camp and it's tomorrow. With the Houston
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: Texans visiting, there's no public practice today, I'm sure to
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: be like walkthrough type stuff. There's no practice today before
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: the game on a Thursday, so tomorrow is it.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: For Panthers. Training camp feels like both a long camp
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: for them, but it also went by pretty quick though too,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: because they don't they don't put they don't practice as
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: much as they used to. There's more days, whether it
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: be travel days or you know, scrimmage travels, whatever. It
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: just feels like it's a longer camp. But it does
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: kind of feel like also went by kind of quick though.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, because I think you're thinking in your mind,
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: this is a long camp and then all of a
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: sudden you're like, holy crap, tomorrow is the last day,
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: you know. It's kind of one of those things. Cut
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: deadline is Sunday. We'll talk about the roster situation a
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: bunch here today on the show. We've had all the
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: Panther beat writers way in with their fifty three man projections, Mike,
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: k Joe Person, Alexetlow, the Observer. They've all kind of
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: done that, So we'll talk roster today.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: I do want to mention Kate brought up a name
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: that we have not talked about at all. That was
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: number one in Pro Football FOCUSS grades for the Panthers
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: this past week. That may need to get more love
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: than he's gotten on this show. What it was playing
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: that here at some point yes hour.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: I don't know if I don't know if I'm buying it,
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: but Mike Kay's covering this team inside and out. But anyway,
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: all right, let me get to the injury situation here.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: Jaseem Reid back at practice yesterday. We talked about it
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: yesterday morning, how big of a week it is for
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: him as he battles for a roster spot at wide receiver.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: We'll lead back at practice. This is a rookie bone
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: that has a legit ants to get snaps when they're
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: in a you know, nickel situation. They have been experimenting
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: with moving JC inside. That would probably he's got a
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: chance to be that outside guy. Obviously sew Smith Wade's
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: had a pretty good camp too. Do Are they more
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: comfortable with him inside? So we'll leave being back at
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: practice I think is big for him. Jalen Phillips missed
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: the game on Friday with some soreness. He's back at practice,
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: so that's good news. Cuba is still out, but Cuba
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: literally said yesterday when asked if you have a game
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: on Sunday, would you play, he said yes, So I
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: think we're good on the Cuba front. Even though he
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: is not practicing. Haines King will not play this week,
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: so I don't know. I don't know what happens there.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: Bone.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: I think most people seem to think he showed enough
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: in the Hall of Fame game to be on to
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: fifty three.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: But I mean it was the greatest Hall of Fame
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: game performance we've ever seen, so certainly he did enough
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: and said up shutting myself down here for the rest
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: of the rest of game.
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: So we will see how that plays out for him.
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: Excel is in a boot and will be until Thursday.
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: He will not play this week. Joint practice Tomorrow game
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: on Friday, he will not play. So now we got to,
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: you know, Now we gotta hope Excel can get this
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: thing going again.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: He needs all the reps he can get. It's not ideal.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: That sucks.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: It's not ideal because I don't know, if you know, Bone,
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: Tomorrow is the most important practice in the history of practice.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: Tomorrow Chus Fields really big for the Panthers, So it
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: sucks for Excel. He's not going to be in the
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: mix for that.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: And then what as a former great practice player myself,
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: I can't wait to see it.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: There you go, There you go, baby, And then Devin Lloyd.
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: I'm a little concerned. I'm a little Dave Canalis downplayed it.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: But Devin Lloyd didn't play on Friday night. We find
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: out now Bone, he's got soreness in his knee. Going
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: back to last Wednesday's joint practice, Canalis said, Hey, it's
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: not something that's gonna hinder him in the long term,
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: but he got treatment on his knee yesterday. So anyway,
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: this is this one that is new here.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: Bone. I don't want to get too concerned. I don't
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: wanna get too jumpy, though. I'm not gonna worry about
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: it right now. I'm gonna choose the path of not
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: worrying right now. All right, I'm just not gonna worry.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna think about it. He'll be fine. I'm not
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: gonna concern myself with thoughts of a negative I thoughts
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: of negativity right now. Mac, I'm gonna be positive. I'm
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: not gonna worry about Devin Boyd. Now talk to me tomorrow.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: Author who knows.
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: I mean, maybe he's out there practicing tomorrow, you know
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: what I mean, and like it's not even worth worrying.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: But he is such an important freaking player for this
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: team that it garners this reaction from me. You know,
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: it gets me, Oh, I get it. It gets me
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: a little shaky little Panther picture side his injury history,
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: do we know is he's definitely better than Phillips. Yeah,
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: in terms of the two guys coming in, Phillips is
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: the one we've worried about.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: Seventeen games played fifteen, sixteen and fifteen, so he's been
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: very durable in his time.
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: Pretty damn yeah, pretty damn reliable. So we'll see. Hopefully
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: it's just this. We say it all the time. This staff,
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: you know, you see it with Cuba, This staff precautionary
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: this time, this time of year, and uh and I
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: get it. So anyway, we've got that going on. I
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: will say this, regardless of what worries you about the
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: Panthers or any football team in college or whatever that
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: you are rooting for this year, you can just click
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: your heels, close your eyes and say I'm not a
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: Browns fan because I like, are they on purpose, trying
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: to gaslight fans bone. They named Deshaun Watson as the
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: starter yesterday, two days after he gets booed by the
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: fans in a hideous performance and then pretty much you know,
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: goes at the fans for the booing.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: It's a it's a being a Brown and I and
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: I say this back as a guy that roots for
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: a few teams that have their own issues over my life,
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: especially one of them that is just one of the
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: worst franchise in sports, being the New York Jets, but
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: being a Cleveland Browns fan has to be the ultimate
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: horror film, Like it's just it's story after story, this
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: this First of all, it was already a pretty horrendous
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: quarterback battle, but yeah, it felt like the way to
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: go was to go with Shador Sanders the people's vote
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: of the Cleveland brown fan base, and Cleveland said, uh no, no,
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: no thanks, We're gonna go to Shaun Watson despite the
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: football performance you to be an awful and then the
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: press conference performance being awful, nothing, nothing, screams to door
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: Sanders like what's going on in training camp in the
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: Brown said we're gonna go try Watson for two road games.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: So he doesn't get booed.
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: I mean, don't get me wrong, neither were their options
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: stink yep Like the amount of time ESPN is spent
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: on such a feeble quarterback battle has cracked me up
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: all training camp. But Deshaun Watson, to me, feels like
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: he has been out played by Shador Sanders. And you
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: throw in the whole attitude that he gave the fans.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: You bring up a point.
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: Their first two games are on the road, so I
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: don't know bone if he can play decent and kind
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: of calm them down. I hope not, because what I
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: want is Deshaun Watson in there against the Panthers, and
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: I want the fans absolutely going off on him. That's
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: what I want, because we're their home opener Week three,
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: Panthers Browns is their first game.
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: Who knows, maybe he'll be bench by then. Well, I
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: don't know. What we want is play just good enough
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: to get to get that keep that job, to get
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: that first home start, and then he comes out horrendous
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: and then the crowd turns on more MAC. With the
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: way sports are going right now, Deshaun Watson could be
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: quarterback at Clemson against LSU. Here in a couple of weeks,
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: that's his best path. Also in all this, as someone
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: pointed out on Twitter yesterday, Watson Sanders, Cleveland did draft
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: another quarterback in the third round a year ago for
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: whatever reason, they drafted Dylan Gabriel a year ago in
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: the third round, who wasn't even a part of this competition.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: Really it was Sanders versus Watson. Why did you draft
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: Dylan Gabriel with all the other quarterbacks that you've had?
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: What sense did that make? Why did they draft him?
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: Why did they draft Shador? I don't you know what
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: I mean? I don't know what no sense they Yeah,
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: that's what I'm saying. If you are feeling down about
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: anything football related going into any of your team's seasons,
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: just remember the Browns.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: I just think it could be worse. We could be
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: the Browns.
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: I do want to And by the way, he's got
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: next March his contract two hundred million dollars on March thirteenth,
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: if he's still on the roster, becomes guaranteed everybody in
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: their brother nose they ain't going to He ain't gonna
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: be on the roster by then, which is another reason
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: why I don't know why you're starting him. But but
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: so they can then cut him, get out of that contract,
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: get out of the two undred million. But they still
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: have eighty six million dollars of dead money, the second
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: most behind Tua, the second most dead money in the
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: history of the NFL.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: No, it's the most dead money. I read second most.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: He had the most, and it's thirty above Tua. I
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: thought Tua had ninety some Oh was it? I thought
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: I read that he I thought I read two. I
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: had fifty six million dollars. I'll double check that. Okay,
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: I'm there. Maybe I thought CBS said ninety. I don't know.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: I don't know, Bonesy, but what I'm telling you is
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: it's a bleep load of dead money for a guy
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: who has whose career has been dead for you, that's
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: the thing.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right too. It was ninety nine point two.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: I don't know what I read.
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: Why he hadn't played good He hadn't played good football
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: in years, He hadn't played good football since he was
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: in Houston, you know what I mean?
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: So anyway, but what a mess? What a mess? But
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: better them than us?
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: Do you want to mention a couple of NFC south
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: notes right here? Bone Michael Michael Pennix. So our week
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: two opponent, I'm telling you right now, if we don't
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: win Week two and week three, forget the Bears and
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: the Alliance for a second and Week one and week four.
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: We don't win week two and week three with those quarterbacks,
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: we're going against.
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: Hot and bothered. Yeah, and just imagine this scenario. If
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: they do win Week one, how does that set up
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: the next two games. Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: But I'm not gonna say anything about the possibilities of
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: three and oh if you win the Bears game. But anyway,
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: then with Sunday Night football, what if you beat the Lions?
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: Going now? Now, what if you're fifteen and oh going
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: into week sixteen? If it's again, go ahead and back
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: back to you.
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: Michael Pennick's first practice yesterday, where he participated in eleven
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: on eleven team drills, and multiple accounts Bone of reporters
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: that were there said he outplayed Toua. He was the
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: best quarterback on the field already for the Atlanta Falcons.
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: That is either really good for Pennix or really bad
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: for the Falcons.
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: I'm rooting for the latter. The Saints Bone since they
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: won't have Kamara for a month, made a trade for
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: Za mere White, former Georgia running back right North Carolina, Katy,
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: you had a kid from where did he playing in Scotland?
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what it was. That's what it was.
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: So they made a trade for him to try to
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: give them a little bit of running back insurance with
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: Kamara out that gate.
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: Texter wants to know who are the other quarterbacks for
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: Atlanta because based off the bodies of Tua and Penix,
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: we may not even see them in week number two.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: They may just crumble before then. Who are the other quarterbacks?
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: Old Jack Strand and Cooper Rush? Right, Jack Strand was
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: bawling though this weekend. Baby Jack jack Strand, the undrafted
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: free agent bone was cut himself a UFL demo tape
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: this week.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: He was going to heck off, I think that's a
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: fake name, and that's just Matt Ryan out there. It
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: still yeah, Cooper Russian Jack Strain or the other two.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: He know it's with Atlanta. Both those guys. You don't
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: want to root for injuries by any means, but with
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: their injury history, they could just walk into each other
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: in a meeting room and all of a sudden, they're
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: both injured.
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: I gotta tell you, I'm rooting for health for Tua
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: and Pennix.
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: I do.
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: I don't give a damn which one you play. I'm
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: fine with playing either one of those guys in week two.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: Bone, All right, well we come back here on the
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: Mack and Bone Show. Dave Canalis on rosters decisions, the
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: running back rotation for week one, and the status of
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: Darren Waller as well. It's Sports Radio ninety two seven WFNZ.
• 18:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Devin was just a vet rest, so he was
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: really sore coming out of the practice, really had a
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: fantastic day, and then you know, we just kind of
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: we weren't we were gonna play him, but coming out
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: of that didn't feel like we wanted to. And then
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: today he got some like more intensive treatment on his
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: knee and he was able to He's doing great. He's
• 18:23
  Speaker 4: doing great. We don't foresee this being something that's gonna
• 18:26
  Speaker 4: hinder him long term, but it was a good moment
• 18:28
  Speaker 4: and opportunity for us to take advantage of this window
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: to get him all the way back.
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: Here you go, Dave Canalis says, chill out, Mac, chill out,
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: your neurotic, insane panther fan is basically what I heard
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: there bone during that clip, that I should chill out
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: and relax. Jump to conclusions that Devin Lloyd it's just
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: a temporary thing in.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: A precautionary measure bone. But he did miss the game
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: and did miss practice yesterday. Keep cool, Mackie, I'm good.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: Keep calling me. I'm good. I'm good. I mean, by
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: do I not seem calm here about our middle linebacker.
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: You're a fifty two year old, decrepit man. You can't
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: be having an out person worries.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: It is kind of sad at fifty two, with so
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: many things to worry about. Family, you know, all that
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: stuff and uh.
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: Here, and I still allow myself to get like way
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: worried about a knee of a man. But this is
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: an important man. Well, you could be Fitty in myself.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: This morning, we're going over our video game results from
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: last night. I sit here at forty two. Fitty's approaching
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: thirty at some point. Yet we're very concerned about our uh,
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: our football teams that are in video games.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: I will always stand for UH for dudes rights as
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: they become a I mean, Fitty's not an unk you're
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: you're you're working your way towards young status. I feel
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: like bone, I will stand up for old guys' rights
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: to play video games. Uh, Bebop was trying to shame
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: you yesterday about being a forty two year old man
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: playing video games.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: We're the video we are. We are in the video
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: game generation, like we all all grew up with all
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: our group grew up playing video games. And uh it
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: is far from a rare thing. So for you to
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: be shamed, Bony for your video game playing, I will
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: stand up for you. It's a good release. It's a
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: good I mean.
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: To me, I put it right up and we're watching
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: a movie or a show. Yeah, Like it just takes
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: you into a different world.
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: I'm in the Big Ten Championship game as a Michigan
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: number one, like fun, I have the top two guys
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: in the Heisman race right now and in the second
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: half against Ohio State in the Big Deed Championship game.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: For some reason, my screen throws last night, so you
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: never restarted it. I just decided this is a sign
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: that that God said, go do something else right now. Fitty?
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: How did your national title game go? Fitty? You had
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: the Heels in the title.
• 20:42
  Speaker 5: Baby, Yeah, I threw five interceptions in the first half.
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: And lost to Boise State the twelve seeds by the way, Yeah,
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: I lost. Run though.
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: Hell of a coaching job to get those Heels in
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: the NES. I think Heels fans would take that. I
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: think they would take that at Belichick and pull that
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: off this year.
• 21:03
  Speaker 5: I don't know who would it. Obviously, there's two things
• 21:06
  Speaker 5: on the agenda today.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: I've got a date.
• 21:09
  Speaker 5: I'm also going in the portal to find me a
• 21:11
  Speaker 5: quarterback to win me a national championship.
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: What a day.
• 21:13
  Speaker 5: I will not tell you which one ranks and higher
• 21:16
  Speaker 5: priority as of this moment.
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: I will not tell you which one he has a
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: better chance of being successful At Bone, I don't know
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: because I'm not allowed to talk about.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: No strays for the fit doll. That's right, from six
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: to ten, am, I forgot we promised him that bone. Damn.
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: I was just getting raced stray them up. Apparently, I
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: probably we promised that. I now how Buckeye fans coming
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: at me over video games. All right, settled down, buck eye, Dave,
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: all right, you got beat the first time around. We're
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: playing again in the championship. But God, Davey even you
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: know it's a rivalry when he's talking trash you about
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: a video game made me become Michigan Boone in full
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: your Bucky, don't push me here, all right? He can
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: add a team. He's got some space shot, I got
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: a lot of room operate if Lane Kiffin got roster spots,
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: Bones got team spots. Till you get the point.
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: All right, Let's all right, So let's get into more
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: of a review of yesterday. Everybody's wondering about I feel
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: I feel like we've known this answer for a while,
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: but everybody is wandering bone, what is the plan on
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: Friday night? We got the joint practice tomorrow with the Texans.
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: What's the plan on Friday night? Will starters play in
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: the game? Coach Canalis was asked.
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's still up in the air. And honestly, you know,
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: we have a really really intense practice planned with the
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: Texans on Wednesday, So you know, depending on how we
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: come out of that, and if we get the volume
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: that we're looking for, the odds are they won't play.
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: You know, if between Demiko and I, if we're not
• 22:39
  Speaker 4: able to get the work that we wanted, there may
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: be some early play for some of the guys, but
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: we're gonna kind of make that decision after the practice.
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: Sounds like Kenny Pikett should be loosening his arm up
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: like that kid in a play sixty commercial talking about camp.
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Kenny, you're back in there, baby. I am not.
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: I'm thinking bone because because first of all, he didn't
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: play the starters last year. I've been thinking all through
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: camp they would play in games two and three, and
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: they would not play Friday. They have the joint they
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: have back to back joint practices where they get last week,
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: they got forty reps for the ones.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: It is just filled all along.
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: And his answer there basically makes me feel even more
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: like the starters aren't there, especially.
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: With this team that they have the joint session with.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: Right this is a very physical team. This is going
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: to be a a not your average opponent, especially against
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: that defense in the session. So that also probably plays
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: a part in this as well. They are going to
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: be severely tested by the physicality of this Houston team.
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: It kind of is good, It kind of Oh that's
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: and that's why I've been you know, That's why I
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: jokingly called the most important Pracage. Yeah, I've been talking
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: to This feels very important and it just and it
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: sucks for fans here in Charlotte that they can't see
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: these these joint practices. I was thinking the other night,
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: I'd rather watch them on television than watch the preseason
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: games now, because you're good on good, Like I said,
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: forty plus snaps are good on good in practice last week,
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: you would think they expected to be saying tomorrow, that's
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: way better to what we get preseason game.
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: You and I talked about it off the year last
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: week about how the NFL MAC always wants to make
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: events out of everything. However, it would probably be hard
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: because the coaches don't want it seen, and also it
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: may be kind of hard to follow as a television
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: event of the good on good in the joint sessions.
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: But at some point the NFL is going to go, huh,
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: another big event that we can market the joint sessions.
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: They'll figure something out along the way. They'll do something.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: The coaches will fight it. They don't want it on tape.
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: They want to be able to do stuff bone like
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: remember that, like they put JC horn in slot during
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: the joint practice, but not during the preseason game that
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: he played in, Like they want to be able to
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: have stuff that's not on tape. This will basically be
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: covered Bone by a bunch of bros that live in
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: high rises near the practice field. If you follow those
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: bros that count on Twitter, you'd probably be able to
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: catch all the action there is tomorrow.
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: There was some rumors going around yesterday Met that you
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: rented out that high rise during the month of August.
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: Is that true at all, that you've been going there.
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: I would never share the footage, man, it sounds like
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: a good idea if I had the money. I don't
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: have enough money to do that, But anyway, sounds like
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: does LaMelo have a view of it. I'd love to
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: play it with all Lamello's toys in his old place
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: and then also watch practice at the same time. I
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: don't think Momelo's a lot in there right now. Oh yeah,
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: he cleared all that stuff back, cleared that stuff out
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: all right. Anyway, Let's continue here because the Darren Waller
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: situation is interesting. Bone sounds like he will practice some
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: of them. Are he practiced yesterday for the first time
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: with the Panthers in team drills. Sounds like you'll get
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: in in team drills tomorrow eleven on eleven and stuff
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: against Houston, but will not play in the game on Friday.
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: I think it was Yeah, it was Mike k of
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: ESPN that asked him this. It's it's a hell of
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: a question, like, you're gonna have so few data points
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: to judge Darren Waller before cut down on Sunday, So
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: how do you do it?
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: Do you lean on his past? And this is what
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: Canalis said.
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we have to lean on his recent history playing
• 25:55
  Speaker 4: last year, you know, for example, just watching the cutups,
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: and that's the reason why we brought him in, leaning
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: on that part hard to get the evaluation. We spent
• 26:01
  Speaker 4: the first part of last week just running him and
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: pushing him and making sure he was practiced ready. We
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: didn't want to rush that part. And then this week
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: the plan has rolled out. Today, you know, got him
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: out there, got on some exposure and he'll get some
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: great reps on Wednesday as well to evaluate it. But again,
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: it's a good room. We love those guys and trust him,
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: you know, and so he comes into a room to
• 26:19
  Speaker 4: see where if he can help us in some way.
• 26:21
  Speaker 4: But the guys are doing a great job of showing
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: what they can do as well, like Friday, he probably
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: won't play Friday, you know, if we get enough work
• 26:29
  Speaker 4: on Wednesday. I don't I wouldn't want to put him
• 26:32
  Speaker 4: out in a game type of setting having only practice
• 26:34
  Speaker 4: for a week.
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: My man, I thought he was done talking there. Sorry
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: about that. Is there any chance back that they would
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: puplist Darren Waller for the first four games and then
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: they have a bye in week five? Would they do
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: that at all? Or do you think is that a possibility?
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: You think that's interesting?
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: You would so your point there is instead of practice
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: squatting him, so you where you could lose him potentially, Yes,
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: you would just protect him that way.
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: It would actually be five weeks because you have that
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: bye week right after the first four games, right, yeah,
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, I just I don't not playing a lot
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: of football for him, But I mean I don't know
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: if his body's not ready well, and it gives J. T.
• 27:08
  Speaker 5: Sanders a little bit more of an extended time if
• 27:10
  Speaker 5: he does make the initial roster and then maybe if
• 27:13
  Speaker 5: he's ready to come off puff you make you make
• 27:15
  Speaker 5: that decision.
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: That's not the worst idea you've ever had, though. Now
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: it's interesting for that, I appreciate. I would Mike Ky
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: suggested practice squad for him. I still feel like you
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: could probably practice squad him. No one wanted him in
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: free agency, but what if somebody has a tight end
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: injury all of a sudden and then they're interested buy
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: to take him off your practice buye is at an
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: interesting time? Is it not macwhorre or you can have
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: your first set of games, roster evaluate, check out who's injured,
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: and then yeah, it's not ideal I think to have
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: it that early, but it is interesting how you can
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: go through the first set of games, evaluate and see
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: you can you know, so it's interesting how they can
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: make that work.
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: I have to be honest with you, I've watched J. T.
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: Sanders for two plus years. I don't need four more games.
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: I don't either, That's my point of view.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: But y'all bring up an interesting scenario because of when
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: Waller came in camp and how little work he is
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: going to get before cut down, it makes it very interesting.
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: It definitely does. He made a nice catch yesterday from
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: Bryce and in the highlight that I saw, there you go,
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: so I like to chemistry is already brewing there there
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: you go. You're on the team, Waller. That's all I
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: needed to hear.
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: Man, you're on the team, all right, get your playbook,
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: get your hell Actually, don't get you. Get your playbook
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: is when they cut you. Yeah, you don't want to playbook.
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: Anyway.
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: We will see how they play it, and it's going
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: to be a conversation this week. Is the roster math
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: How to get the roster math mathin? That will be
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: the conversation this week. We'll talk about it later, but
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: Canal has said I'd love to keep seven wide receivers.
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure the roster situation is going to allow
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: us to do so this year. So that's that's something
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: we're going to talk about later on. I wanted to
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: we tease it, so I just want to say Mac
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: for one second. Here the guy we were mentioning now
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: Mike k tweeted about and who PFF had as the
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: highest graded pad their player from Friday is offensive lineman
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: Albert Reese, who Mike Kaye was said he had a
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: tough decision with on the fifty three man projection.
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: All right now, Panther fans are saying, who does that
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: sound effect flatter places? There?
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: It is baby who that's what Panther fans are saying.
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: He had a couple penalties in the two like two
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: old owls who went back and forth had a couple
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: penalties in the first game, if I remember correctly, but
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: has really been clean since then. I really think the
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: whole offensive line for the most part, played really good
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: last week. Backups included. I thought Stone Forsyth had had
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: a problem with a stunt at one point. It's interesting
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: because Mike kay does not have he has eight only
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: eight linemen on his fifty three. He does not have
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: a backup tackle. I think Brady Christiansen's a backup tackle
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: now since he put that fifty three out. Now he's
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: trying to plant the seed of could Albert Reese make it?
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: So? Is Albert Reeves gonna bypass Stone foresyth Albert Reese
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: feels like to me, he's a practice practice squad. That's
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: what I would think, develop even more and maybe in
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: the future he becomes a Yeah. That to me, he's
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: not a like eight year veteran, He's a rookie that
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: they could still develop. So that's that's practice squad. But
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: he definitely deserves a shout. Like Mike k gafen man.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: He's he's he's pretty damn good the last couple games,
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: six seven, three thirty. That's a that's a that's a
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: big old hunk of beef right there. Hunk of beef.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: That's fair. That's definitely fair. Uh.
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: I do want to let everybody hear this because Canalis
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: was asked yesterday about the starting linebacker spot next to
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: Devin Lloyd and that battle between Cherilis and Wallace, and
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: this is what coach said.
• 30:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they're head to head, you know, it's back and forth,
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: and it's like it's neck and neck. Again. I've talked
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: about this before, but these are guys who aren't just teammates.
• 30:51
  Speaker 4: These are friends, and they understand that they understand what
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: they're up against. We could use them both and and
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: we we're gonna need them, you know, in the nature
• 30:59
  Speaker 4: of the position is a violent spot and both of
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: the guys can help us on special teams as well.
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: So we'll have to make that decision as we get closer.
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: But they're both doing a great job of competing to
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: be in that spot next to Devin.
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: Can their friendship Mac just maybe tackle somebody please? I
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: don't I don't know what their their friendship has to
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: do with it. But I don't care if their friends
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: or not. Could someone just make a tackle play, That's
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: all I care about. I don't care if they like
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: each other or not. Let's not be so friendly to
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: the opposing ball carriers. I read into that that statement, Oh,
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: their neck and neck.
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: They're back and forth. Yes, because no one's snatching that job.
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: No one is standing out and snatching that job and
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: running away with it. It's not neck and neck because
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: both guys are playing great. It's neck and neck because
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: both guys have kind of been at They're.
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: Wanting someone to take They wanted Trevin Wallace to take it,
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: and he has it. He's let Cheryl was in to
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: the fight here. As Josh Norris said on Twitter, now
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: we talked about yesterday, Ideally the other linebacker is probably
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: not on this roster right now based off these guys
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: would be depth pieces. I'm not saying get rid of
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: both of them, but they they need they need another
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: guy in there to be next to Devin Lloyd. Yeah,
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: we'll see who gets cut in what happens there, but
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: they've got to look outside for a linebacker. If yeah,
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: they should probably bring in someone now when he cut, Well,
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: that's guys start week one. We'll be able to get
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: somebody like that. Would you have to trade to get
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: someone that's that's able to start like that? Good that
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: they're gonna start right away. You're right, these guys could
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: be in their week one just based off of timing
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: at this point. Yeah.
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: But I just when I hear that comment, it's like,
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: of course, of course their their neck and neck. They've
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: both been all right, you know what I mean, No
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: one's really flashing or popping.
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: I told you Mac that I was mister positive today.
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna be negative. But I was thinking about
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: week one in the middle of the field and the
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: linebacker spot. We love Devin Lloyd, hopefully he's healthy, but
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: you also have to think about the opponent for Week
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: one and the tight ends that they have. Love when
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: in combet we we better show up linebacker wise week
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: number one middle of the field because they're gonn to
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: try to exploit that agains a pair. That's a great
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: point that middle of the field benefit for us. Now,
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: if all the teams are playing Week one, it's like,
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: oh no, you have a linebacker question, definitely, and they're
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: gonna they're gonna definitely gonna try to exploit that definitely,
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: and they're gonna run the crap out. Now I'm nervous. Now,
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: calm me down. Now you're a petrified panther. Oh, Corey
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: and rock Hill says, Coop watch the rookie Jackson cool Watch,
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: we'll be starting by week three. He feels practice squaddy
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: to me, but also seems to be a theme we
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: have going on. But I'll say that, Well, you got
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: sixteen guys now on the practice squad. Yeah, I'll say
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: this though, Bone practice squad are people too Like practice
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: squad guys matter too like on the team like they
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: can easily. You have sixty nine guys now, I don't
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: view it as fifty three. So and because they change
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: the practice squad rules Bone to where veterans can now
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: be on there, like to me, you use that whole
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: sixty nine developing you. You can develop a ton of
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: dudes over there.
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean Jackson coo watch can't be playing
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: by week two if he's on the practice squad.
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: All right, what's gonna happen is fans if he gets
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: in there, mac fans are gonna Coop, But other fans
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: are gonna think they're luking, So we're gonna have a
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: little bit of an issue here where we're gonna have
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: half coups and half Loop's gone.
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: Part of me just feels like Panther fans should show
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: their sense of humor and just luke every white linebacker ever,
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: forever until civilization ends.
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: They just all get looked.
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: Oh man, you want you want something uplifting, bone, I'll
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: give you something uplifting.
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: This is Chewba Hubbard. Make me higher, sir.
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: This is Chuba Hubbard talking about how different the culture
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: is now than when he got there in the old
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: seven year playing days.
• 34:46
  Speaker 6: I think the biggest thing overall is just the connectedness
• 34:50
  Speaker 6: of the team like I've had. I've been a part
• 34:53
  Speaker 6: a great team since i've been here, a lot of talent,
• 34:55
  Speaker 6: but this is probably the closest team I've been with
• 34:57
  Speaker 6: where everyone's just not just playing for themselves but each other,
• 35:00
  Speaker 6: and that goes along ways. That's what winning takes, because
• 35:02
  Speaker 6: when the game's on the line, you know your brother's
• 35:05
  Speaker 6: beside you, and you done went through training camp, you know,
• 35:07
  Speaker 6: went through the Hall of Fame training camp with everyone
• 35:10
  Speaker 6: and seeing the worst days and the best days. It
• 35:13
  Speaker 6: just brings another I guess levels of playouts. So I
• 35:18
  Speaker 6: just attributed that to all the guys in the locker room,
• 35:20
  Speaker 6: obviously the coaches.
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: He's one of the few bright spots of the Royal era.
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: And it wasn't even him that drafted him. It was
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: his wife, So thank you to Julie rule was her
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: hit percentage back higher than it had to be higher
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: than it is? She was one for one. Why couldn't
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: she just coach the team too? Maybe the seven year
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: plan would have seen through if did you did you
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: ever think like, oh, maybe she's got more that she
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: can draft here. When we come back on the mack
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: and boat, Joe, don't worry. We put it off till now.
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: It's in junction Junction time. We're gonna talk all about
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: the college stuff. Wayne Kiffin is all over the news,
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: Clemson had to suspend a starter, and definitely Will Wade's
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: in the news. The FBI might be involved in Lane Kiffin.
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: There's so much happening. We'll explain. Sports Radio Tiny two
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: seven w FNZ.
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: A group of players or granted a fifth year of
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: eligibility around the country in multiple sports and through them
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: winning their injunction and entry into the portal. They're available
• 36:50
  Speaker 3: to recruit, and so ourselves, like many places around the country,
• 36:55
  Speaker 3: are recruiting them. And at the end of the day,
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: you know, well, because of these rulings, they're either going
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: to play for you or they're gonna play somewhere else
• 37:04
  Speaker 3: around the country. So we've made decision to recruit them,
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: like probably most.
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: People are there.
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: You go lang Kiffer talking about his move to bring
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: in the fifth year guys, the class of twenty twenty
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: two guys. It looks like Bone, he will bring in
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: at least three. You have the d linemen from Notre
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: Dame that he is bringing in. You have two of
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: his former old miss players. It looks like it is
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: just a matter of time here in the next day
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: or so that they will be in.
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: One is the.
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: Tight end from the Browns, Daikwon Wright, who apparently is
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: reportedly asked to be released by the Browns so he
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: can go back to college and make more money at
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: college than he would for the Browns. And then you
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: also Bone.
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: Why can't they be on hard knocks this year?
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: To see that conversation, Uh, now, could you imagine the
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: reaction from the Browns brown What are we doing here?
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: You want to play in college, you can make more money.
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: That makes sense. The staff was surprised when a player
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: walked in and go back to college.
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: Kiffin also reportedly going to add former Ole miss d
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: lineman Xavian Harris. There's another former old miskid out there.
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: There's a former LSU guy in Bucks camp in pieburn
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: Edge Rusher. So he could get up to five bone,
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: but he's at least it sounds like going to add three.
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: And he was defending himself yesterday. And we will have
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: a conversation later about like does this increase Lane Kiffin
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: villain status or do y'all agree with Lane. Someone's gonna
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: sign them. They're eligible. Now, I didn't make them eligible.
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: Blame the NC DOUBLEA for this mess. But they're eligible.
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna sign them. They can help our team. That's
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: his argument.
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: The real interesting battle here because the NC DOUBLEA is
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: losing all these things. It's the fact that LSU is
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: going against the conference right now. They put out a
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: statement last night. This is this is turning in back
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: to LSU because Will Wade is also going crazy too.
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: It's the combo. How many players so far in this
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: whole fifth year thing. Has LSU signed both for football
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: and basketball. That's a good point. Will Wade's going nuts too.
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: They lead the country in fifty year guys, and those
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: two prominent sports. Right now, it's LSU both sports versus
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: Greg SANKI for what's going on right now. Listen, I
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: hate to see mac. They's great gentlemen, all feeding with
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: each other. I listen. I get it, and will you,
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: there is an element there. I get it, man, I
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: get it what they're doing. It's eligible guys, I get it.
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: It does feel a bit shameless, like they should be
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: the s in LSU should be shameless and not State
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: Louisiana shameless university for you. But yes, you bring up
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: Greg Sank. The SEC presidents and ads had a or
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: presidents and chancellors had a virtual call last night, after
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: which they came out and put out a statement basically
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: bashing the addition of guys who have been in the
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: pros like Daikwon Wright.
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: The statement. Here's part of the statement.
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: College athletes, not former professional athletes, have been at the
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: heart of the Southeastern Conference. Individuals who choose to leave
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: college athletics sign professional playing contracts and complete profession compete
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: professionally should not be permitted to return to college competition.
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: Allowing that to occur will blur the line between college
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: and professional sports, creating significant competitive equity concerns and reduce
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: opportunities for high school and current college athletes college sports
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: or for college athletes. The current confusion around the national
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: Eligibility standards emphasizes the need to advance the Protect College
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: Sports Act. Meanwhile, in Baton Rouge, Lane Kiffin and Will
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: Wade their like heh with that?
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, bet, as the kids say, here's the issue, Matt.
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: For Greg Sanki, things spiral quickly in the Southeastern Conference.
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: If one coach is gonna do this, or in this case,
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: really the two guys doing it a lot are both
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: from one school, it's not gonna be long Mac before
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: Greg Sankee's got absolute bedroom on his hands. Where all right,
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: Wolf Wlane's gonna do this, or Will Wade's gonna do this,
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: Then we're gonna do this all of a sudden, he's
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: gonna have the whole conference. Mac just doing what Wlaane
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: Kiffin's doing. That's probably Greg Sankee's nightmare if he can't
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: stop this right now from spiraling we know how that
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: goes in college football. I'm gonna go out in the
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: basketball world. I'm gonna go out on a limb and
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: say Lane Kiffin will ignore this. We'll do him, not
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: care what the SEC says. He basically said yesterday, if
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: COMPS has problem with do something about it. But until
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: you do something, I.
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: Mean, Lane Kiffin's the kid Bone that goes as far
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: as he can possibly get away with, with a sheepish
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: grin on his face, as far as he can get
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: away with.
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: And if you tell him he's going too far, oh,
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I'm sorry. He's Dennis the Menace and Sankee's
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: mister Wilson. Here's the thing, though, it's possible, kids, it
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: is possible, Bone going old school cartoon in the eighties.
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: I didn't even think about that, all right, So it
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: is possible. Although the eighties is old school too? Am
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: I old forty some years ago? Oh? Anyway, it is, dude,
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: it's the man anyway.
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: Greg Sanki put out a statement, I think last week,
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: basically saying that getting these fifth year players is a
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: violation of the intraconference transfer rules because remember Bone, what
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: the rules have been about. SEC SEC transfers you can
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: do it in that window in December. Once that window closes,
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: you can't. You couldn't do it in the second portal.
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: Now this is interesting because there's no second portal, but
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: this is certainly outside that first portal.
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: Windows.
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: If Greg Sanki wants to, he might be able to
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: try to enforce rules against what Lane Kiffin's doing. By
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: the way, if you think, oh and then the SEC
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: has meetings of their ads and presidents today and tomorrow
