- 2:07but because we're getting so close. But this is the halfway or a little
- 2:10over halfway point of the MLB, and uh, the current score right now
- 2:15is five to three the American League, top of the eighth. That's kind
- 2:22of been being cooked by baseball, well, you know, and soccer.
- 2:28And we'll keep it brief so we can people have already bored and shut off.
- 2:31But no, nobody Matt Miller, guy from the Athletics, Holy moly,
- 2:39I've never I've never I don't know anybody on that Athletics team watched him
- 2:43pitch tonight one inn. He he's a reliever. Obviously, that dude's going
- 2:47somewhere. I'm just telling you, he is good. That's what I have
- 2:52seen tonight. That was the one thing that stood out to me. And
- 2:58uh, Sacramento now and right now it looks like, uh, who'ld we
- 3:04say it was gonna be durand for the a L that's probably gonna win m
- 3:07v P. Yeah, Jahn had a big hit earlier in the game to
- 3:12take the lead. So h right now, middle of the eight. So
- 3:15we're going to the bottom of the eight with the American League, uh als
- 3:21had more hits. Go back down, Sean, Actually look at that,
- 3:24no the box score, you circle down. I'm sorry. So the als
- 3:30last, okay, five five runs on five hits. N l's got nine
- 3:34hits but only three runs. Texas won, So it's a Texas that's right,
- 3:37that's right. I mean, I don't know how they used to They
- 3:39used to do it all different ways, So I don't know. I don't
- 3:43know who the manager is for the American League? Is it the is it
- 3:46the guy that wins the manager of the year. I don't remember how that
- 3:51goes anymore. Used to you looking at the draft over there, you can
- 3:55bring that up here as we're talking about let's let's talk a little bit of
- 4:00ten rounds in two days, just like hockey they moved, didn't they hockey?
- 4:02Hockey and baseball get it done and out of the way, yes,
- 4:05Whereas for some reason basketball it's only two rounds, but it takes like ten
- 4:11days. No, it was just two days. It takes ten days.
- 4:14Used to be one day. They just this year was like the first day
- 4:15they moved it. It was like ten days, like sixty It takes forever
- 4:19to pick skinny French guys. There's a lot of that, Yes, there
- 4:25is a lot of that, all right. The MLB draft happened this weekend.
- 4:28Uh, Cleveland Indians the first time in their history got the number one
- 4:33pick. They got the Travis Bazana from Morgan State thy home run derby.
- 4:40It was Dodgers' very first home run derby win. Really interesting and by an
- 4:46older guy too. Yeah. Yeah, they've never they've never had a they've
- 4:49never had a home run derby winner. That's interesting. That's interesting. I'm
- 4:54going to tell you that last night. But we got distracted, well,
- 4:57Travis Bozana stakes and went to obviously, uh, the Cleveland Indians. There
- 5:02was some talk about actually there was more talk about Cleveland taking him or Charlie
- 5:08Condon, and Charlie actually went three to the Rockies Burns since any Red's took
- 5:14Chase Burns right handing picture from Wake Forest probably the best picture in the class
- 5:17to be honest, Burns from Wake Forest. Condon looked to be one of
- 5:23the big power hitters. Had the episode late and then and then Athletics surprise
- 5:29the little people. They've took in Kurts from Wake Forest to that disappointed.
- 5:32And then you your team took Hagen. No, you took the the the
- 5:38Arkansas picture, which I thought was right there, right there behind Burns.
- 5:44And he's a lefty. I like that too. It's good. I mean
- 5:46left pictures took No. That was then you got Rolls, took Jack He's
- 5:57the he was CAGLIONI probably is how you actually say that or say that two
- 6:04way player plays a lot of different positions, big bat. He was the
- 6:10guy from Florida, that's what you're thinking of. Cardinals took the guy that
- 6:14I think is gonna be one of the best ones. Is the weather whole
- 6:16kid from West Virginia, the shortstop. That guy I thought he felt in
- 6:20the Cardinals. It was perfect. Anyway, there we go. That was
- 6:25it. That was it on the draft. I mean it's over. And
- 6:29we had six Oklahoma players team to lose. Six OKAHMA players taken in the
- 6:39draft. Obviously Spiderman was the first. Let's don't have team and we had
- 6:50five from the Cowboys. Congratulations, I think this is Blake Larson. I
- 7:00g Academy. We got his rights. Yes, we took also seaugu Whites
- 7:06took Caleb Bonber from Okay Okimos High School in Michigan. I'm sure I said
- 7:13that wrong. John Spikerman, for Ou was taking that. He was the
- 7:16first player off pick went number one hundred in the third round. Also Brandon
- 7:20Davis, Ryan Lambert, Bryce Madrin, Brendan Gerton, and Michael Snyder.
- 7:27So marks the second time last three years at League six Sooners have been drafted.
- 7:30Levin and there was eleven in twenty twenty two. Yikes, I didn't
- 7:33realize there was that many. Well, no, we lost that whole team.
- 7:36Yes, so well, Oklahoma State had a first rounder, yes,
- 7:43Carson Ben Yeah, they did. They did, and he was one of
- 7:46the better hitters in the Big twelve. That's correct. That is correct.
- 7:50So he's he's now with the with the the Mets system. They took Ken
- 7:55out Elk City, Cash Mayfield, he was That's what Baker's name should have
- 7:59been. It was a high school kid. And also if you go down,
- 8:03well, Edmund Edmund North, So if you go down I think Cleveland
- 8:09actually had no it was Cleveland got a guy that was an Oakland State commit
- 8:11from from another from California. That's correct, that is correct. We're still
- 8:18a lot of high school kids there. There is a lot of those there,
- 8:20definitely is a lot of those who named their kid Twine Palmer and some
- 8:26more Roberts guys in there too. Well you are usually they were, Well
- 8:31I did they they made it. They made they did. They didn't make
- 8:35it out of Oklahoma winter. They didn't make it out of the Oklaoma Regional.
- 8:41But yeah, I mean, congratulations all these kids. Where's Simnle State
- 8:48South? Yeah? Dirty? Well, I mean yeah, we canna look
- 8:58up team were gonna look up location. So listen, I was doing all
- 9:01right. Oh now, actually, if you want to look at there is
- 9:05a Seminol state. And I don't know. I was that that's Oklahoma.
- 9:09Yeah, that's Oklahoma. There's a state in Florida's there is. Yes,
- 9:13that's what I was getting ready to say. Yeah, well it's just seminoals
- 9:16came from. Yes, that's where they were. That's where they were,
- 9:20Florida State. I don't know. They were trailer tears. I know that
- 9:22they were. They were forced out as well. R I p trailer tears.
- 9:31I want my pants? You did? You sure did? I was
- 9:37out of clothes. Interesting that it's in seminal Oklahoma. I didn't realize that
- 9:43that's where that was. Wow, we just learned something new today that we
- 9:48do wrong in geography in Oklahoma. My word, seminole state. But I
- 9:52didn't realize there was a seminal Oklahoma. Hold on, I knew there was
- 9:56a seminal Oklahoma. I didn't know there was civil state. There you go.
- 10:01Maybe if we combine our brains, well, we can be one functioning
- 10:05person. All right, let's move on. Let's talk a little bit about
- 10:11we're getting ready. We'll get ready to do. Yeah, we just do.
- 10:15Let's do SEC Media Days. Let's just do it. Let's just get
- 10:18right into that. This week. So I forgot this was no, No,
- 10:22this week was SEC Media Days. And well let's see where did they
- 10:26have it? At Dallas? And uh we'll get to that in a minute.
- 10:33Yeah, so they had they started this week SEC Media Days. Actually
- 10:39today Venables talked this stays is I'm sorry, let me spit that out.
- 10:46Seventeenth, Yes, the seventeenth is? Who was today? I wondered that
- 10:52schedule? Oh my god, can you figure out your life? No?
- 10:56No, no, I was on the bottom of the age. There we
- 10:58go to three. All right, Wednesday schedule. Tomorrow's Alabama, Mississippi State,
- 11:03Florida, and Texas. Uh, Thursday's Arkansas A and m Auburn Kentucky.
- 11:07So those just started today, Yes, yeah, so they made Texas
- 11:11go first. No, they'll go tomorrow. Oklahoma was one of the first.
- 11:16Yeah, Venables is like, you know what, who are you people
- 11:20that'd be it'd be all of you with Clemson and what knows that? And
- 11:26so there was a lot to talk about today. I wanted to talk a
- 11:31little bit about. I mean, obviously you know about to have a heart
- 11:35to heart with Kennedy. No. Saban made a comment that he said,
- 11:37Oklahoma's you know, turning the corner. They're looking better, et ceterric because
- 11:41he's media out well. Edie also said who said Texas was back? But
- 11:46now he said it was it was like who's gonna who says Texas is going
- 11:48to run that conference? Oh yeah, they didn't even run their own So
- 11:52I mean it is what it is. But but somebody said that they they
- 11:58ran they ran all the other conferences, and we know that Oklahoma ran the
- 12:03Big twelve. Yeah that was almost too easy, wasn't it. Oh?
- 12:07I guess not according to them. So today yesterday, okay, Monday was
- 12:13l s U, South Carolina, Old miss Vanderbilt. I heard nothing about
- 12:16Vanderbilt. And then today was Georgia Tennis. Well, Vanderbilt is money,
- 12:24money, money money. Moneysville, Missouri, Missouri came in late that some
- 12:28weather delays, and we'll talk about Mike Mike Gundy. Didn't nobody knew.
- 12:33Nobody knew talking about Mike Gundy's controversial common nobody knew. Eliwit drink Wits from
- 12:37Missouri made a comment about Mike guy today. Actually, oh did yeah,
- 12:41yeah, talking about when Paul Finebaan said something about drinking, he said,
- 12:46are you talking about are you talking about Mike Gundy? Are you pulling Mike
- 12:48Gundy or something? But anyway back to oh you I that was mainly the
- 12:56talk this week was oh you. H Owen was there, Stutsman was there,
- 13:03Jackson Arnold was there. So everything everyone said, they represented great And
- 13:09like I've told you before, every team that's even talked about Oklahoma and Texas
- 13:13coming in, they just keep saying the same thing as the interior, the
- 13:16trenches, the line, that's what's different U in ou. Now, there
- 13:22was an interesting comment that was made by Jackson Arnold that talked about he had
- 13:31the man in camp and was talking to Carson Beck, which is was a
- 13:33freshman last year for Georgia. He said his hardest road game of the whole
- 13:37year was Auburn. Said it was the hardest, toughest, loudest stadium.
- 13:43Jackson Arnold's first true SEC road game is Auburn this year early in the year.
- 13:46Yeah, hell's the name of that stadium? Jordan Jordanare Jordan here?
- 13:56It's Jordan. It's Jord, It's Jordan. Dig Jordan. No, it's
- 13:58Jordan. Have you ever heard those people pronounce it? Yes, Jordan Hare
- 14:05stadium. Ah. Yeah, it's a very lost. It was interesting to
- 14:09say that that that's the game. I mean, this is the game I
- 14:11wanted to go to. And and so you guys are like, we didn't
- 14:16want to. We didn't. We don't drive that far. I do.
- 14:20I do all the time. And so it looks like we're going to red
- 14:22River this year. I know, But like I said, I would have,
- 14:26I've never been, you've never been to be. It's gonna be fun
- 14:30just because it's never beens. I can't turn it down. That's exactly right.
- 14:33And I can just spend the night with George and Tina. Wait,
- 14:35well we never would have. You know, it was more of a weather
- 14:39thing with my looks like I'm glad. Well, I know, I kind
- 14:46of wanted to go because I want to see them beat them. I mean,
- 14:48because they're trying to make us this new rivalry here, and they've beat
- 14:52us on some recruits actually over the you know, they got green from us,
- 14:56and then they've got they beat us on Lamont Rodgers offensive lineman who says
- 15:01those kids aren't going to stay there for this season. And then come to
- 15:05that because remember transfer portal happens twice a year. I know you're right,
- 15:09it seems like six times a year, but it's twice a year. Well,
- 15:13a lot of that was the talk about. I mean, it just
- 15:16happens. Venables made comments auction. According to two four seven Sports, it
- 15:20was tough keeping all the assistance together. You know, he did lose his
- 15:22offensive coordinator to a new head coaching job, and his defensive coordinator him parted
- 15:28ways. Then what ESPN had picked ou fourteenth out of the sixteen, Well,
- 15:35I want to talk. I didn't go to ESPN. I wanted to
- 15:37pull up USA today it's had thirteen riders. We'll talk about that in just
- 15:39a second. Idiots. But they talked about and we knew this too,
- 15:43was Ohio State was rumored to come after DeMarco Murray and we give him a
- 15:48raise. Beating Ball got a raise. I mean, you talk about it's
- 15:54one of those things that you feel like this program is building to something special
- 15:58soon. It's taken a little longer. Probably will take a little it should
- 16:04have because we got we got on that second tab, but the first over
- 16:10there, but the first one was actually pretty Yeah. The first one they
- 16:14did talk about that was glad you brought that up. They talked about the
- 16:17no penalties for horns down like the Big twelve. No, you go to
- 16:22the SEC. We're not crybabies. Yeah, and and they don't they I
- 16:26don't think for the Gators, and you know, I don't think that.
- 16:30U. God, he looks like Colon Colon were younger. But yeah,
- 16:36I mean, Vinables talked about and talked about what he came from. The
- 16:41SEC. Will let you ras your opponent. I mean, the Big twelve
- 16:44was like, oh no, no, no, we need to make taxes
- 16:45happy. We must we we we got to keep Texas happy. And secs
- 16:52doesn't care. They don't care about your feelings. No, they really don't.
- 16:55It's week to week. They care about who's going to win the time
- 16:59out of the up a little bit but not And also talked about make the
- 17:04screen move up. See how it moves up. That's what I'm thinking,
- 17:11because this is the top. My producer over here, he's just this is
- 17:15the bottom. Whatever you're just you're just moving it up. But no.
- 17:18One thing that they talked about and they continue to talk about as as Venables
- 17:22goes into year three is the roster rebuild. And what we've seen in and
- 17:27that too, retention was huge Bowman and Stan I mean Stetsman was our best
- 17:33player on defense and it was out two of our losses. He was well,
- 17:37he got knocked out on the Kansas Uh. But the retention of players
- 17:45has been night and day as compared to, of course what we lost whenever
- 17:51Dick Nuts left. But in a harder time too, right See, Ridley
- 17:56didn't have to compete with that right until the very end. You know,
- 18:00so losing so so so, losing those players and losing the coach because you
- 18:03know, the oise is on Missouri's team. And then we lost a few
- 18:11more players that next season, but now the transfers out of Oklahoma and fewer
- 18:18correct and most of them besides Kate and Green last year going to Missouri,
- 18:22which was disappointing. Most of them have went to a lower I don't want
- 18:27to say a lower tier school, but it is what it is. You
- 18:30know, there's not you're not transferring diagonal or you know you're I mean,
- 18:37there's been some. There's no doubt that there's been some. You have to
- 18:38transfer in Oklahoma State and sit there and go. But heke, you know
- 18:44what, Oklahoma State finally has has has a chance to win hold on Big
- 18:49twelve. We're doing previous, but I want to I want to talk about
- 18:53they have a chance. I want to talk about the us AH Today poll
- 18:59did that I found interesting, So I wanted to talk about. Thirteen writers
- 19:03got together for the USA Today Poll twelve picked one team to be first.
- 19:11Assume you'd know where who that is? Georgia. Yes. And then there
- 19:15was one first round I'm sorry, one first place vote given to and then
- 19:22so let's go third Mississippi for Bama. Five and that Mississippi, Mississippi.
- 19:27Well, here's this five Missouri and I'm sitting there going, you know,
- 19:30Missouri's got the love of an easy schedule, and then we looked at the
- 19:34schedule for next year. They're just flopping home and away. So it's two
- 19:40years in a row that Texas and miss Missouri have an easier and Tennessee have
- 19:45an easier conference. It's nuts. Will they be beating up on each other?
- 19:52No, because their schedule is easier. Now you've got the but anyway,
- 19:55so oh you Mississippi, Bama, Missouri, LSU, Tennessee, OEU,
- 20:00Auburn, Kentucky. No, I'm sorry, he's confused. I can't
- 20:06read my own writing. Nobody can. Then Kentucky, Auburn, Florida,
- 20:10South Carolina. We did not yet. Oh, Texas got a guy on
- 20:14the line. What's that? I was looking at the preseason. I don't
- 20:18really look into those because that's just a guess. Oh, Danny's and the
- 20:22linebackers, Well, i'd hope so. Well, I mean they told they
- 20:26said that he should have had a second to third ground, third grade,
- 20:30third round grade last year, and he still decided to come back. Yeah,
- 20:37he wants to win. He wants to he wants to prove all the
- 20:41haters wrong. Why this goes into baseball, didn't find it did as we
- 20:52said. Here we go, let's see SEC order to finish or projected USA
- 20:57today. Okay, one day ago, there we go tuk a Luca took
- 21:02a Luka news. Well I'm not getting from USA today, but you can't
- 21:07you know, it's a paper like I want to read their Okay, here
- 21:11we go, Georgia, Texas, Old miss Alabama, Miszoo, LSU Tenny
- 21:17that that was A and M not sorry, Auburn A and M. Yes,
- 21:22Auburn was not Kentucky's tenth Auburn eleventh. Four. Well, so for
- 21:25them, they have Oklahoma at least in the middle. Yeah, whereas whereas
- 21:30old ESPN had Oklahoma at fourteen. That means that only Vanderbilt and probably Arkansas
- 21:37were picked worse than US. I know that our well, I mean it's
- 21:45it's it's interesting when I look at that. Though. Obviously they're picking Missouri
- 21:48because I think of the schedule. I also think that Tennessee is getting some
- 21:52a little bit of love because of their schedule. When it comes down to
- 21:56it, Tennessee has got a fairly easy schedule. However, Tennessee has Chattanooga
- 22:03in C State kent State, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Florida, Alabama, Kentucky,
- 22:11Mississippi State, Georgia, Utup, and Vandy. So they finish pretty
- 22:17easy. They have an easy schedule all the way. Well, Kentucky's name
- 22:22two losses for sure on that, Oh, Oklahoma and Georgia, Okay,
- 22:26for sure. I think Oklahoma and Tennessee is going to be a is going
- 22:30to be as going to be a fifty to fifty only because Hypel coming back
- 22:33to Ou. Those players are gonna want to win for him. I'm just
- 22:37telling you, it's just going to be a different deal. I mean I
- 22:40think that potentially now they're starting freshman quarterback, so it is Oklahoma in C
- 22:44State. It could be that you picked him. No, I think I
- 22:48picked Tennessee on that too, did as well, So that is kind of
- 22:52a somewhat of a tough non conference challenge. But look at the rest of
- 22:55their schedule. Nine ten wins easy. You've already made me forget what the
- 22:57hell I was looking for. Oh yeah, looking State Tennessee. I did,
- 23:00so you got the SEC schedule. Well, here's the here's the issue.
- 23:04Tennessee starts great, looks good, and then falls apart. Yeah,
- 23:10they generally do. But look at our schedule, they could possibly lose Florida,
- 23:15Alabama, and Kentucky. Now I don't think those three they could possibly
- 23:19lose. No, Florida is a no. I just I disagree with that.
- 23:22And then where's the Kentucky game at It's in Knoxville. See, and
- 23:26I think they win that too, just because of the home. Alabama's in
- 23:29Knoxville games are in Alabama. Probably wins that game. So I think their
- 23:34entire season is in Knoxville exactly. That's what I'm saying. Wors farthest they
- 23:41have to go is Oklahoma. Yeah. Worst their away games Charlotte, Quincy,
- 23:45State, Norman, and Charlotte is going to be a non con.
- 23:48It's going to be a probably playing at the Panthers stadium. Okay, So
- 23:53so it's not a really true road game. No, let's see you nor
- 24:00one. Uh, Fayetteville the week after Arkansas is no good? Uh?
- 24:04Athens? I would loss, well, I would say Nashville, but that's
- 24:10I would go not I would go lost there and who else? That's it
- 24:14Nashville, That's what I'm saying. But it doesn't matter because it's boy,
- 24:21they're just having trouble finding it, find it finding a well. Compare now,
- 24:26now you say that Vanderbilt finding finding a Compare that to let's go over
- 24:30Missouri schedule. Missouri opens with uh god, are they all in Columbia?
- 24:36Jesus, Murray State, Buffalo, which I already knew those were gonna be.
- 24:41Take Boston College not any good, lost their coach, Vandy all four
- 24:45open, all four games are at home. Now sorry, so they they
- 24:52have a bye week and then they have to go to College Station. Now
- 24:53we don't know what Elco is gonna do with that team. It's a possible
- 24:56loss. To say, you just say one loss there, okay, Then
- 25:00you got to go to Amherst for you mess tough. And then you have
- 25:04Auburn at home. You have to go to Tuscan Lucifer Alabama two losses.
- 25:11You've got Oklahoma at home? Do you have no Oklahoma? Is there they?
- 25:15Yes? Then you got South Cakilaki in Colombia not tough. Then you
- 25:21got to go to Starksville with a new Jeff one of the worst predicted teams.
- 25:26And then you've got you're finishing with Arkansas at home. They're nine wins
- 25:30there. I know it's said, and then next year they start the season
- 25:34at four and out. They're big heads. They're gonna have these years,
- 25:37I know, and then next year. But you look at next year,
- 25:41you're just you're just no, you're just reversing the SEC schedule, and now
- 25:45they're just yes, it's just a reverse. We play the same teams next
- 25:52year. Conference. I wished it would have been so now, Texas,
- 25:56Mississippi, I'm sorry, Missouri, Tennessee. That's that's two years. It's
- 26:03an easy schedule. Yes, yes, and you know there's South Carolina,
- 26:07Oh my god, Georgia, Georgia they uh they as well? True?
- 26:15All right, well, I mean Georgia's Clemson, which possible loss. That's
- 26:19I mean, that's a good non it's gonna be it's gonna be a fun
- 26:22opening, a good non conference. Yes, Tennessee Tech, then you have
- 26:26to go to Kentucky and then you have to go to Alabama. Then you
- 26:30get Auburn at home and Mississippi State at home. Then you gotta go to
- 26:33Austin, Texas, which is that? Should that game be in Dallas because
- 26:38they're gonna go a Chrurch at home and home? Shouldn't that be? No?
- 26:41Because they won't do that conference wise, to go to a non site,
- 26:45you rarely see that. Then you've got to go to Jacksonville. What
- 26:48they do, haven't They got a big road A fifty? Now let's go
- 26:53let's talk a little bit about surprise, because I mean George is gonna be
- 26:56your surprised. Yes, I want to talk about because everyone is loving on
- 27:03old Miss. Let's go over their schedule, miss. Well, I mean
- 27:07you you're over that schedule on scene he's going to be playing for his dad.
- 27:10Yeah. Well, and I've got that on my notes to talk about.
- 27:12All right, old Miss. They open with Furman okay, Middle Tennessee
- 27:18State CA. And they actually go to Wake Forest Okay. Then they have
- 27:22Georgia Southern okay, Kentucky Okay, you're going to South Kakilaki. Okay,
- 27:26you're going to Baton Rouge okay. Uh one, two, three, four,
- 27:30five, six, seven six and one at worst that worst, Yeah,
- 27:34and a bye week before Oklahoma at home okay, and they go to
- 27:42There's Yeah, they have their by week the same time. Uh yeah,
- 27:45they Fayetteville. Then you've got Georgia coming in loss, and then you got
- 27:51to go to games Florida about two to three lost Mississippi State. Now you
- 27:55got to remember that Old Miss. Still, that Old Miss is going to
- 27:57be what a hell of a game. You gotta remember that that lane blows
- 28:02a couple of games of season inadvertently, whether it's a it's a bad defensive
- 28:07decision or they get down too early in the Yeah. But last year they
- 28:12tried to fight back. But yeah, but I mean last year they looked
- 28:15like they don't have Jackson Dark anymore. Yes, that's why they're so high.
- 28:22Yes, Dark come back. Yes, Yes, that's why I'm high
- 28:27on They have one of the most seasoned quarterbacks. And I think, no,
- 28:33it's it's better comparable. I mean it is. It is what it
- 28:37used to be yesterday. Now just what it used to be. See last
- 28:45year they were eleven and two, six and two in conference. Yeah,
- 28:49there was early two losses and I wanted to show you their losses was Alabama
- 28:55and Georgia. That's it, That is it. I remember watching the SO
- 29:00and and the Alabama game wasn't an ass kicking, but the Georgia game I
- 29:06was also an ass kicking. I'm sorry, I was looking through the score.
- 29:08Yes, but did they play Alma? Did they play LU last year,
- 29:11Yes, they should have. Yeah, they won fifty five forty nine
- 29:15members to shootout. Yeah. Did they play Florida? Oh yeah, Florida's
- 29:21horrible. But they did not play last year. Okay, and they barely.
- 29:26We're gonna remember that South Carolina's coach is playing for his job. I
- 29:30don't think so. I think Demer's got a lot. I think he's got
- 29:33a long time. I think he is playing for him. No, I
- 29:36think that's a hard job. I mean, and they did. They did
- 29:38pretty well last year, and then of course they beat Penn State and the
- 29:45Peach Bowl. You lied, No, you said that earlier. What's it
- 29:48that the media day started on the fifteenth, it did, I'm sorry,
- 29:52Yeah it was. It was actually Monday, Miss South cacklect. I had
- 29:56forgot about them because I didn't. I didn't realize it started so early.
- 29:59And then you, George, that's pretty nice day. I'm not gonna lie.
- 30:03Yes, Georgia, that was the best day of them all, to
- 30:07be honest, this day. And you know, Venables talking really nice about
- 30:11Hypel you know, and said, uh, wouldn't he was an assistant there
- 30:17when when they won the national championship. Yeah, and he came over with
- 30:19Bob and he said, we couldn't have done it with that Josh. And
- 30:22I think the crowd is gonna go ape ship nuts when he's announced because plus
- 30:26he's also playing against Mark and Mike and much still at Kentucky with Mark.
- 30:32You know, I don't know, I know Mark still there obviously, but
- 30:33well, yeah, we know that. We know that Mark took a job
- 30:37that didn't get a job. So are his players going to play for him?
- 30:41Talking about the A M deal, Yeah, well it's one of those
- 30:48deals that that was. But I think they got a better hire by hiring
- 30:53Yelko. To be honest, I think he's a perfect fit. I really
- 30:56do know. I got that. But what I'm saying is, yeah,
- 31:02sixty two. But what I'm saying is is are the guys Do the guys
- 31:07feel slighted? Go back up to that, Sean, I wanted to talk
- 31:12go back up to that USA Today poll when we were talking about a little
- 31:17earlier. I just wanted you to look at that and to see if there
- 31:19was something Oh well, of course you did, but there was something about
- 31:26that that did you have? No? Not the last few teams. I
- 31:29mean, I could put Vanderbilt last and Mississippi State. In Mississippi State,
- 31:38that was me counting on air? What was after South Carolina? Who am
- 31:42I missing? I don't know? What do you want Tennessee? Yeah,
- 31:48there's somebody in the bottom. Who's the bottom feeder? Were missing? After
- 31:52Florida and South Carolina? How did you count there? There should be sixteen,
- 31:56but there's not one, two, three, four, five, idea
- 32:00fifteen anyway? Arkansas our neighboring states. So no, so Georgia, Texas,
- 32:12Mississippi, Bama. Top four? Feel that bears? You feel that
- 32:15eighty seven? Is that something? Well, there's Georgia, Texas, Mississippi,
- 32:21Bama. That's your finish in the top four. See. No,
- 32:23I don't know that happened. I don't know what's happening with this with with
- 32:28the Bower. He's coming in, he's inheriting a team, yes, but
- 32:36is it going to be Well they haven't missed a beat on recruiting so far.
- 32:43They haven't. So, but I always worry about new coaches coming in
- 32:49and uh, well look what his staff done for Uh because his his Washington,
- 32:55his offensive coordinator came with him. Remember, he didn't get that,
- 32:59he didn't get that job, and he didn't get that job at Washington.
- 33:01Yeah he's No, he's and he's just doing linebacker's not even decordinator? Who
- 33:07is? No, he's not linebacker? Is gonnak at Mike and just be
- 33:10like, no, guess who got the job. Guess who's better than you?
- 33:17No. So going back to that, you feel comfortable with those top
- 33:22four? I mean, schedule predicts Texas and Mississippi's there, Yeah, because
- 33:29of schedule alone, right, But then Missouri they've got fifth, and you
- 33:36might could see Missouri flip Alabama, not because they're better, just because of
- 33:40schedule. But that's what I was gonna say, Is you nill Alabama schedule?
- 33:45I mean that was something that that Missouri has got such an easier schedule.
- 33:50Alabama opens at Western with Western and then they they bring in South Florida,
- 33:58which move the almost lost that game last year. South Florida didn'ty almost
- 34:01lose that game? No, I don't think so. South Florida didn't.
- 34:06They have them real close for a while and then Mama had to pull it
- 34:10out at the end. It's possible, I don't remember. I think,
- 34:15are we done with this? Can I get rid of this? Page.
- 34:17Yes, well, I'm sorry after it. I'm sorry, but dad Gum,
- 34:22you just got on me. Uh. Then they then they have to
- 34:27go to Wisconsin. You know. Then that's the Uh, that's that's gonna
- 34:31be a problem. That's Luke fickle. And actually that looks like a good
- 34:36win. We will look, but I don't know what they have. What
- 34:42was I'm looking at the paper. You're doing computer stuff which CONC six and
- 34:46a half. So I don't think it looks like that good of a win.
- 34:49No, but I mean it's it's a it's a it's a Division one,
- 34:52pretty good program. Yes, three week one. Then you have an
- 35:04early buy. Uh. Then you have Georgia at home. You have to
- 35:08go to Nashville for Vandy. South Carolina is home. Hold on time.
- 35:15I was wrong, I misspoke. I forgot that. Ryan Grebb did go
- 35:20to Alabama his offensive coordinator, and then left immediately and went with to the
- 35:24Seahawks. He went, Yes, he went with Mike Is it McMahon?
- 35:31I think McDonald Mike McDonald, the new Seahawks coach. Yeah, remember,
- 35:35because we kept making fun of him, Yes, Mike McDonald because I thought
- 35:38he was the same singer. Yes, yes, So that's that that is
- 35:44that's interesting. That's interesting. Won't you be murfree? Love might change.
- 35:51I forgot the grub left, so but now go ahead and read their schedule.
- 35:53I'm sorry I was interrupting. Well, like I said, started with
- 35:57the Western Kentucky, South Florida was called Onsen. Then you Georgia at home,
- 36:04Georgia at home, Tennessee, Tennessee and l s U's they're toughy in
- 36:07Oklahoma. Yeah, you got Missouri coming and now you gotta go to Button
- 36:10Rouge. That's why I said L s U. Oklahoma and Tennessee's there are
- 36:14three big road games and then Georgia. So Alabama's got a harder schedule.
- 36:19It's comparable to use. Yeah, but the the nine and a half one
- 36:25two, three, four, five, six seven, Well, okay,
- 36:32so you got so and then Auburn you got eight. So you're gonna have
- 36:35to beat Oklahoma, L s U and Georgia to get that not tenth win,
- 36:40say nine and a half, nine and a half, because I mean,
- 36:44you know you're gonna you're gonna win the first three, four, five,
- 36:49six, seven, eight, Yeah, no, no, No,
- 36:53seventeen to three was the South Florida game. You've got you have actually got
- 36:57to beat You've got to get over that by beating Georgia, Tennessee, l
- 37:02s U Oklahoma. You're gonna need two wins out of those four, which
- 37:05it's possible obviously. But like I said, they had a close, close
- 37:08game there in South Florida. Remember that it was kind of the Texas hangover,
- 37:13wasn't it, Because didn't they just and you noticed that, you know
- 37:21their quarterback outplayed mill Row so well, I wouldn't say outplayed, I just
- 37:27I think in that game he outplayed, right, I don't know what you
- 37:30argue he up played him. He has the eighty seven yards in it.
- 37:36And I can't imagine Jill Jalen Milrope having worse stats than that. Let's check
- 37:42it out. We are gonna look, Oh, he wasn't even in the
- 37:45game. Did he not play that game? No, ty Simpson and Tyler
- 37:50Buckner. Did he get injured? Maybe he did. That's why that game
- 37:58is close? D have general These backups are really amazing. Well that's oh,
- 38:09remember it was drama. He didn't play him, Tyler, Butckner couldn't
- 38:15get the offense. And he said all three quarterbacks would give a chance.
- 38:19He didn't like what he done in Texas. Remember he pulled him that game.
- 38:22There was no injury. Yeah, it was one of those weird saving
- 38:28deals. Don't like devastating plays that happened twice in the Texas game. But
- 38:35I think he's learned from it. Well, I think Nick Saban learned from
- 38:37it that they couldn't win without him. It's essentially yeah, well no,
- 38:42I mean, look what the other two done against and in the fact that
- 38:45well, and the fact that Milroe was in battled the entire season. Well
- 38:49he started coming in this year, I know, but he was in battled.
- 38:52Probably a better offensive guy, to be honest, I mean, I
- 38:57mean the defensive guys. All right. Update on the All Star Game currently
- 39:00final actually just went final five to three American League wins. Yeah, I
- 39:06was. I was mesmerized. Doesn't mean anything. Speaking of Homer and Derby,
- 39:10singer Andrews what was her first name? She's a country singer. She's
- 39:14entering rehab. She was drunk last night. How convenient handres? Yes,
- 39:21you know, how bad is it you get drunk and then you go sing
- 39:24We're doing at karaoke all the time. I could give two ships if I
- 39:29got ham. I think some people were apologizing to Roseanne Barr and I forgot
- 39:35the other terrible singer. I would have done it. Oh yeah, fucking
- 39:39Hammered went out there and sang old miss Rock and Rebels or whatever or USA
- 39:45songs, God Praise the USA. All right? Anything else? No,
- 39:52no, because I mean we're pretty much we're getting ready to So next week,
- 39:58just for a heads up, we're gonna preview the a c C College.
- 40:02That'll be next week on Friday, seven twenty six. Then we'll also
- 40:07preview We're gonna go from bottom to the top. We're missing the AAC because
- 40:12I still have them over the a c C. We're gonna and then next
- 40:14week we'll also the same time, we'll be previewing the NFC and AFC North.
- 40:21But I just don't know how many how many people want to hear about
- 40:23Rice U A B. Charlotte, Yeah, uh, Eastern Carolina. I
- 40:31think they have they got more Memphis. Yeah, we're just gonna ye.
- 40:36So so we'll do a CC next weekend in the a f C North.
- 40:38We'll talk about that. We've also we talked we got some over and unders.
- 40:43We'll talk about Cincinnati. We've already said is gonna go over there,
- 40:46predicted ten and a half wins. Now, Zach and Sean said Pittsburgh over.
- 40:53I disagree a game. Yeah, it was eight for me, half
- 40:59half a good and then the NFC Nord it wasn't the drugs. We took
- 41:02Detroit on the over. That's ten and a half, which is a lot
- 41:07of wins for NFL. We took Detroit. We think they're gonna have an
- 41:09excellent season, and Chicago was eight and a half. And we just don't
- 41:13think that. I mean, even with the additions that you guys have been
- 41:16sucking that not at all, with the addition of Kayleb Williams, and even
- 41:22with You're gonna go in, You're you're just sending in this crab baby ass
- 41:25rookie with one of the best offenses and defenses in the league. Well,
- 41:31I think that the Bears are a pretty good team overall. There's a lot
- 41:37of talent there. I just don't like Kayleb Williams. I just I don't
- 41:39think that's gonna be handled the pressure, right, That's what I'm saying.
- 41:43They're sending this kid in so and I'm not really sure how good their offensive
- 41:46Tyson Badgert. They did improvements and then ended up with Tyson badget in there.
- 41:52All right, anything else on that, We'll talk about those next week.
- 41:55Uh. Some NFL news. I want to talk about condolences to Mynie
- 42:00Kiffin, the famed defensive coordinator. It's Moni died. Condolencence the Kiffen family
- 42:08that Moni died. Ere Go Lane's father. Obviously, the Lane chain is
- 42:14in the station, the defense. I mean, I'm a Buccaneers fan Bennett
- 42:19for thirty years and remember when he got with Tony Doungee and it was just
- 42:23a night and day difference about what that guy can coach, and so so
- 42:28we eat I know it. Jordan Addison also this last weekend thirteen or fourteen,
- 42:35Yeah, yeah, was that young? It's been the fan. Sam
- 42:37Weish was actually the coach of Tampa when I was a great coach, and
- 42:43then because he came over from Cincinnati, That's exactly right, and then Tony
- 42:47took over. He was defensive coordinator for the Vikings and the Vikings were a
- 42:52badass team. Then, I mean that guy they missed a Super Bowl then.
- 42:57I think it was probably ninety when was Tony there, ninety nine was
- 43:04ninety nine of the year that he was still there. Yeah, he didn't
- 43:07come into am I thinking earlier. No, earlier. Maybe Tony might have
- 43:14been early Tony, Tony was earlier, because you guys, there was a
- 43:20year that well, ninety nine for the seat for the Vikings was bad because
- 43:22Gary Anderson missed the kick. Remember he missed that kick and it's sent or
- 43:28maybe it's ninety eight. It's sent Atlanta with Dan Reeves to the Super Bowl
- 43:32and they had a really good running back. Then. God, who was
- 43:37it that the the Falcons were pretty good? No, Dan Reeves took them
- 43:45to that Super Bowl. I promise it. Yes, Gary Anderson missed that
- 43:49field goal, missed all year. He was earlier. Yeah, well no,
- 43:53but he put him in the black uniforms head coach history. Yeah,
- 44:01so I think it was Tony probably took over in ninety three ninety four.
- 44:07It's more I'm just guessing, and then it was and then it was took
- 44:15over, and so that's when he had those had those good teams. I
- 44:20think with Denny Green in Minnesota, he's playing the defense, that's when they
- 44:25never should have fled and let him go. And then the other coaches were
- 44:30ship until Brust showed up. So it's pretty much what it is not love
- 44:34lovey. But he just wouldn't Yes, he just wouldn't any good Greg Seanna.
- 44:38They hired from college Raheem Morrison now his first head coaching. He is
- 44:43back in head coaching. He's in Atlanta, same division. I just need
- 44:47a job, well, love he was a defensive coach in the past with
- 44:51doungeeyeh No, But did he just need a job. He's always needed a
- 44:53job. That's why take what you can't And Dirk and dirt Cutter is one
- 45:00hell of a offensive mind. I don't Dirk somewhere. Where's he at right
- 45:05now? Is he still the offensive coordinator at oh? I can look it
- 45:12up right here? He is Boise State. That's it? Okay cool?
- 45:19Who is the guy that was at Oklahoma State? That's the offensive coordinator for
- 45:22Baltimore Ravens. That guy needs a job, oh I one in Colorado.
- 45:32God Todd, I like him. I like Todd Monkin, Yes, yes,
- 45:38I do. I think he I think that guy is a future head
- 45:42coach in the making for sure, especially what he done. You look at
- 45:45what Lamar did last year. I think Lamar is only gonna do better this
- 45:49year. I see, I'm gonna check this out. I should get its
- 45:52own. Okay, we're gonna talk about My Gandy real quick, so think
- 45:55it'll play My Gandy met days had an internet hold on. We're gonna talk
- 46:05about I don't know what's from here we go. We're mike this media.
- 46:13So I looked it up on my phone. What would be the legal limit?
- 46:16Oklahoma's point eight and Ollie was point one. So I looked it up
- 46:23and it was based on body weight. Not to get into the legal side
- 46:28of it, but I thought, really, two or three beers or four.
- 46:31I'm not justifying what all he did. I'm telling you what decision I
- 46:34made. Well, I thought I've probably done that a thousand times in my
- 46:37life, and and I'm you know, it's just fine. So I got
- 46:40lucky. People get lucky. All he made a decision that he wished you
- 46:45could have done better. But when I talked to Ali, I told him
- 46:50said, you're lucky you got out light because you make a lot of money
- 46:53to play football. Wow, that's impressive stuff. I think it was blown
- 47:00out of context. No, it was as far as the media wise,
- 47:05how he said Gandhi's are drunk, drives drunk all the time. That's kind
- 47:08of some I heard. That's all I had heard for that whole thing.
- 47:13But I'm not I mean, but I but I honestly kind of get where
- 47:16he's coming from. But he's the master of deflecting from his players. He
- 47:21always has been exactly he deflects. Who was the other one he deflects?
- 47:27I mean, there was it last year. There's been multiple. But I
- 47:30know what he's trying to get at. It sounded kind of funny to say
- 47:32I've done that a thousand times, meaning I've drunk, I've drunk drunk,
- 47:37I was drunk and driving, you know what I mean. Here's the issue.
- 47:40Mike Gandhi is is an Oklahoma, good old Oklahoma boy. We have
- 47:45a certain way of talking, and that's just how we describe things. Oh,
- 47:52I'm probably done a thousand times, not literal, not literal. Literally,
- 47:58I've drunk. Literally, I've got drunk, and I drove drunk.
- 48:00You know. But if you know they're going by B M I and they're
- 48:04doing all this, and you know, I wave blown out of proportion.
- 48:09But I thought it had three beer. Honestly, I thought it was for
- 48:15him to say, and I thought it was perfect because it's exactly It's exactly
- 48:21like because I mean, you tell your kids you made you screwed up.
- 48:23You know, he got up all his ass. So but it's not like
- 48:29but but it's but these but we talked about Addison earlier. You know,
- 48:34for the NFL, these players have got to understand. Though you look at
- 48:37Rugs now in prison, the consequences that ship can cause when you're making big
- 48:44money. But driver, uh, don't be above the law. Was that
- 48:47the second or third Alabama player that they had that got in trouble? You
- 48:53mean Georgia, No, no, Las Vegas. I drafted Oh you're talking
- 49:00about Las Vegas drafted the numer Well, I mean George is having the trouble
- 49:02now still still there's still Yeah, the two linemen is defensive line. Offensive.
- 49:09Again, I'm reading a story about how Oklahoma offensive linemen are riding bulls
- 49:14and I'm like, at least they ain't right there somewhere we didn't we We
- 49:20did have a kid get in trouble marijuana. Yeah it was Who was the
- 49:24last one they got in trouble? Because it was and actually he was a
- 49:28really good player. Who was it. We all kind of sat there and
- 49:31went but you kind of kind of think about these kids. Now they're getting
- 49:37paid, you can't right, so well them up and down. Hold on,
- 49:43here's the issue they're making it look at because they're making you. They're
- 49:49making it also to where these players are employees. Works are transferred from wide
- 49:55receiver. But they're making it to where these players are employees. Now,
- 50:00well you and you kind of have to treat him like that. So now,
- 50:01yes, so now you are an employee of the university. But the
- 50:05interesting thing about Oklahoma is where in atwill state. So as an employee and
- 50:10you're getting paid. If we don't like you, you're gone and you can't
- 50:14say shit, You're just done. It is what it is. It will.
- 50:17Yes, you're a will that will or anything else, well, football,
- 50:22I don't think. So. I was interesting to see that Ayuk is
- 50:27still you know, not getting the love he announced this week or people said
- 50:31that his people want to trade from San Francisco. Also, t Higgins was
- 50:37one of the few that got tagged this year and didn't get a long term
- 50:40still hadn't got one. A lot of tags this year, it could oh
- 50:44yeah, yeah, they were early that they didn't. The issue is in
- 50:49San Francisco, they're trying to come in under under the under the value under
- 50:54the cap and it's just going to get too expensive forever it is. It
- 51:00is. So there's casualties, right and I think they're dirty casualty, But
- 51:05hey, that's you guys. You're no actually, but but you know that
- 51:12he's gonna have to money. Big money is coming up for him. But
- 51:15the the other issue is as well as you you also you also have the
- 51:21accounting flow. You had the accounting the penalty for that makes you wonder if
- 51:27that's a real club or just a will? Could that carry another year and
- 51:30then pay a penalty later? Who knows they are? They are now?
- 51:36But you want to keep by you But at the same time, how do
- 51:38you pay him what he's worth and keep him on the team. Can't You
- 51:46can't keep everybody. That's That's That's what I'm saying a lot of people now
- 51:52you watch these CAP guys, they're forcing this ship out because they're thinking that
- 51:57it's a funny ad right there, just up a little bit. I thought
- 52:02that said something else, but anyway, So no, what I'm saying is
- 52:07is you're trying to keep all them together. But you know you're gonna you're
- 52:09gonna have some cap casualties. You stretch them out because now you're predicting what
- 52:14the cap is gonna be then, because you know the cap rises obviously,
- 52:19Sorry, so I don't know. I don't know if you saw this,
- 52:21I did? Okay, Yeah, new Rageing Cages, Sam, Sam what
- 52:28is her name? What is her? Landry? Yes? Landry? Oh
- 52:32no? Another Landry? Oh no? Another University of Team AAC pitching from
- 52:40the Raging Cajuns I think? And then obviously yeaes s Belt Sorry Sam Belt,
- 52:46not the AAC. It is sembelt two year, A sixty three and
- 52:52nineteen got portal. Portal is full. We're done at Kennedy from Yeah,
- 52:57what is she doing? I don't know? And everyone's like, is are
- 53:00we gonna get her? I don't think we are, luckily or not luckily?
- 53:04Unfortunately it sounds like Florida State, Florida and Texas are in the mix.
- 53:07Obviously we should be too, and they said they can do some things
- 53:12to get her there, but she's gonna have to enroll soon. So there's
- 53:15gonna be some thing concerning though that they got this girl. They picked her
- 53:20up, Sam, and it kind of makes me wonder if they already know
- 53:22inside that she ain't coming to Oklahoma. It's possible, I mean, it's
- 53:25it's heavily possible, and maybe she's concerned about all the newbies. I mean,
- 53:30we lost, you know how many eight we lost? I thought there
- 53:35was five original seniors, okay, five og seniors, and then the transfers,
- 53:39and then we lost best team and best play of the Year, which
- 53:44whatever. I don't care. I don't watch them either, and I don't
- 53:49care Trash, I don't care about your award shows. I don't care.
- 53:53Back to you wanting a trade. I think the only team right now,
- 53:55I think there's a team that desperately needs a wide receiver more than anybody I
- 54:00can think right now, there's two teams. It's Buffalo because Diggs is gone
- 54:06and Buffalo doubly needs. San Diego is the other, and who's you know,
- 54:12obviously Allen's gone, Mike Williams is gone. It's San Diego. It's
- 54:17always gonna be sa It's the future, always gonna be siting the future.
- 54:23Yes, it's it's the Chargers, the San Diego. San Diego, doesn't
- 54:28it doesn't exist. We had always what I'm gonna call that. Well,
