  Speaker 3: Everybody gets themselves a roundom falls who we went an
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: hour without talking coaching search.
• 1:05
  Speaker 4: So we're doing it now.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we're doing it now.
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: But we did an hour, y'all, an.
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: Hour that has been Wayne playing.
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: Well, don't worry, I'm throwing it to Tata here because
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: TA updated the document here.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: Matt Campbell potentially to Arkansas.
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: A lot of smoke on it yesterday.
• 1:27
  Speaker 5: A lot of the guys that are hosting radio shows
• 1:29
  Speaker 5: in the Little Rock area, we're throwing out that. Uh like,
• 1:32
  Speaker 5: there's a lot of smoke around Matt Campbell.
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: I think that would be a home run higher. I mean,
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: if I could find.
• 1:38
  Speaker 5: A D plus, it's Matt Campbell. He's been awesome at
• 1:43
  Speaker 5: Iowa State. I mean we talk about it every off season.
• 1:46
  Speaker 5: Is this the off season that Matt Campbell finally takes
• 1:48
  Speaker 5: a job, and I mean maybe it is. I mean,
• 1:51
  Speaker 5: if I'm Arkansas, I'm doing everything i can to make
• 1:54
  Speaker 5: this higher.
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: I think it'd be awesome there.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: Matt Campbell's the head coach that I was stated, I
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: just look that up. Yeah, I saw his face. I agree,
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: Matt Campbell. No, but seriously, he won farm against Historically,
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: it's something like coach.
• 2:13
  Speaker 5: They only had one or two nine win seasons in
• 2:16
  Speaker 5: their program of history for Campbell got there. He's working
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: on number four potentially, so I mean he's been incredible.
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: There and he's been loyal. I mean he has been
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: super loyal to Iowa State. I mean he's been enough
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: for like NFL jobs and he stayed there. So look,
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: that would be a great one. But yesterday I'm sitting
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: there and I'm doing off campus, and I'm starting to
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: think about all the jobs that are open outside of
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: LSU and Florida, because those have been the loudest. I'm like,
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: you know, Arkansas has been kind of quiet, and I
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: started thinking about it's like, wait a minute, there's a
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: guy that honestly should probably be in the same conversation
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: as Lane Kiffin for some of these jobs that nobody's
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: talking about. He's a guy that has Arkansas ties because
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: he played quarterback from two thousand and two to two
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: thousand and four there, And that's Rhett Lashley at SMU.
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: RHTT Lashley's thirty seven and fifteen as a head coach
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: at SMU, he went seven and six, eleven and three,
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: eleven and three. In this year, he's eight and three,
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: but six and one in conference playing. Still has a
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: chance to make it to the ACC championship game and
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: if you win that, you go to the playoff. He
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: went to the playoff last year. He's twenty seven and
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: four in conference play as a head coach. Like, why
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: are we not talking about Rhett Lashley for some of
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: these jobs? And may let's let's take LSU out of it.
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: If I'm Arkansas and look s mu's got deep pockets,
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: we've all been to that campus. Island Park hard to SMU,
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: It'd be very hard to leave SMU. But for any job.
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: Rhtt lastyear played quarterback at Arkansas. He's from Springdale, Arkansas.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: He coached at Arkansas like as soon as he basically
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: got done after he went to like Springdale, Arkansas high
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: school coaching for a little bit. I think Gus Malzama's
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: maybe the head coach at the time, and it goes
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: to Arkansas's a GA and he's been an offensive coordinator
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: at Sanford, Arkansas State, Auburn, Yukon, SMU, Miami thirty seven
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: and fifteen. You've got Arkansas ties. You led a team
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: to a playoff. If I'm the Razorbacks, I know it
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: would be hard, but I would try everything I could
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: to get rhet Lastly.
• 4:42
  Speaker 6: I mean the way you laid it out, Yeah, I
• 4:44
  Speaker 6: mean I don't. I hadn't heard his net at all
• 4:46
  Speaker 6: brought up anywhere, seen it.
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: A little for Florida early early on, he was like
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: one of the names brought up that outside of that now.
• 4:55
  Speaker 6: Right, I mean, I guess I don't know what is
• 4:58
  Speaker 6: what's his contract position right now, like because there's.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: Good extension that long ago, but like there's.
• 5:03
  Speaker 6: Good coaches all over the country that aren't on any
• 5:05
  Speaker 6: of his list. And I'm assuming.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: Because it's job security, it's contract security. I mean, he
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: just signed one like within this year. I think it
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: was a two year extension.
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: But again, like that doesn't really that doesn't, but it
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: doesn't speak in absolutes too.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: I can't leave right through thirty.
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not saying it wouldn't be expensive, but if
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: I'm already super expensive, Yeah, and I got the Walmart pockets.
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: I got a Walmart logo literally on my field.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: Well, man, you know what, I'm all find a way.
• 5:36
  Speaker 6: Let's say the Walmart money probably is tied with the
• 5:40
  Speaker 6: s m U type money.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, right, But he'd be a tough Really, I'm just saying, like, wait,
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: did this lastly, fella? He actually play?
• 5:48
  Speaker 7: No?
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, So okay, it's so funny when you no. I mean,
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: would you like, would you be mad? Matt Jones was
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: a unicorn. J I didn't I wouldn't have a lot
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: of loyalty. I don't know what about you if you
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: didn't play, I don't know. I don't know, I wouldn't
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: wouldn't know.
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: He's also from the state of markets All too. I
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: think that doesn't matter a little bit.
• 6:13
  Speaker 5: So like it was probably one of those things where it's, yeah,
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: I couldn't beat out mass.
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: Backing coaches at GA there. Maybe he grew up as
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: an Arkansas State fan.
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: You're gonna leave SMU for Arkansas State?
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: No, not leaving I'm not. There's not many places I
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: would leave SMU.
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: For you got a little biased because it's pretty close
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: to your hometown. Yeah, but I'll back you up because
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: here comes the chat. Oh you're from Dallas anyway. It's
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: an incredible area.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: It is an incredible area. It's like all the money you.
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: Want, and those people want to be good at football,
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: real bad. And they were like better at NIL than
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: anybody before. Nil was the e thing like forty years ago,
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: so they already have proven that they can do it.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: Well.
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, I'm just saying like, I'm surprised we haven't
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: heard I agree with you.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: I would.
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: I would assume that his resume is better than some
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: people's that everybody's trying to get Lane.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think it's comfortable.
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: It's hard because he made the playoff and out of
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: the a c C. I think o'll miss one obviously,
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: out of the SEC's. I'm saying like he's got a
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: great resume. I mean, twenty seven and four in conference play.
• 7:17
  Speaker 5: He's been a good coordinator in a bunch of spots too.
• 7:20
  Speaker 5: Think it's not just SB has failed less than Lane.
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: I'll say that, Yeah, probably Lane had at least moments
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: everywhere he was outside of Oakland, and I don't think
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: outside of Vince Lombardi, anybody could have won in Oakland
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: during that time.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: Vince would win. I don't think anybody was. It was bad.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: It was bad bad. I mean I played against him
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: twice a year.
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: Is bad Latham really like completely. I mean, anywhere he was,
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: you can find big moments, big wins, like Tennessee has,
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: like maybe Georgia even.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: Had some big wins.
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: Usc So Oakland, Yeah, yeah, Raiders, Mulligan, I give him mulligan,
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: anybody that played there or coach there during that time.
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: That's my big concern with wild Lane. That's what I
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: wasn't concerned wild Lane is how much.
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: He moves is he is? He's an habitual itch scratcher.
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: Okay, right, I agree, But he's been an old mess
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: for six If you get six years out of Lane, Kiff,
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: I get that.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: I get. That's that's plenty. That that's the major going.
• 8:25
  Speaker 6: That's the only thing that the only thing out of anybody,
• 8:27
  Speaker 6: I don't know, I'm not I would never be worried
• 8:29
  Speaker 6: about him leaving to another school. I would be worried
• 8:32
  Speaker 6: about him. Seeing man. One time I failed, right, was
• 8:36
  Speaker 6: in the NFL.
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, oh, you're saying, like like when Saban left, he
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: need I need to write that.
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: I have to have to. But you're right, like six
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: years with a like coach is I'll tell you hell
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: I am. I've always you know, since it started, I
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: always if Lane's the coach, I've been excited, no question
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: about it.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: I think he's a great football coach. Uh.
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: I get giddy watching that guy set up an offensive drive.
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: It's it's awesome, it's great, it's poetry emotion. After having
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: to watch l s U versus Western Kentucky and I'm
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: not trying to be funny, but the way that we
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: set offensive football back years, I've never won a link
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: if in more, after watching that game, that was hard
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: for me as an offensive player to sit there and
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: watch and go through and call. It was frustrating to
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: say the least.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: Jake, you know how much I love watching film. Yeah,
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: I love it. I love watching film. I can watch
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: it all day long.
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: I can due outside of your family and card breaks.
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: I think it's your third most love thing. I love
• 9:37
  Speaker 6: it and I couldn't. I didn't watch halfway into the
• 9:41
  Speaker 6: third quarter because like I got the.
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: Heb gus yeah, I don't mind saying it was the
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: toughest game I've ever had to sit there and call
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: how many pencils you break? I went to penns because
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: I knew the pencils would be a bad idea, don't
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: break pins. But like my move, my move was like
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: put it right here and see how I'm like squeezing
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: the top, like this sum's going this way, the middle
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: figures going down. Just continue like just doing that, just
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: doing that, singers like.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: The camera doesn't even do it justice. You got to
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: see these things like so mad.
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: It looks like he's holding a crayon. It really does ya.
• 10:16
  Speaker 7: I didn't even watch the full game. I started playing
• 10:18
  Speaker 7: Candy Crush and you.
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: Know what, and also Candy Crush.
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: And I'll give I'll give my guy, Chris Blair. I'm
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: gonna give our voice to the Tigers a lot of credit.
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: Like he gives me a lot of freedom, yea, the
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: kind of say what I see And it was frustrating
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: and like he was allowing me to kind of dive
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: into it a little bit.
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: So I appreciate that.
• 10:40
  Speaker 6: And I don't think anybody in that building over there
• 10:42
  Speaker 6: either would say anything. No, right, like there's no way
• 10:44
  Speaker 6: they could. Yeah, there's no way they can. And I
• 10:47
  Speaker 6: got I think all the truths that.
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: We went straight passes and not having a running back
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: carry the ball against the one hundred and eighth ranked
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: rush defense.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: No, there's nobody to be like, you know, it's a
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: good playing and like you.
• 10:59
  Speaker 6: Can watch said And the reason why I like to
• 11:01
  Speaker 6: watch film is because you're watching scheme, you're watching individual matchups,
• 11:04
  Speaker 6: You're you're watching two cord, you're watching a chess match
• 11:07
  Speaker 6: between two different coordinators try to trick each other, try
• 11:10
  Speaker 6: to fool each other, try to disguise things, and then
• 11:13
  Speaker 6: you get to see people kicking each other's ass like
• 11:15
  Speaker 6: that's like it's it's beautiful.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: It's a beautiful sport. And then you watch it.
• 11:20
  Speaker 6: This is one of those films you can't watch it
• 11:22
  Speaker 6: be like, man, we left so much out there because
• 11:24
  Speaker 6: we didn't leave anything out there, like there wasn't anything
• 11:27
  Speaker 6: out there to be made, like the the schematically, it's
• 11:30
  Speaker 6: just it's just it's just flawed.
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: Sometimes I do forget shout up to Chris in the
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: by Ford chat. I forget that we're on camera in
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: the booth.
• 11:40
  Speaker 7: Oh yeah, I forget that too.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: Are you really were on camera?
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, inside the booth.
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: I have some J Cutler level bad body language because
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: I forget that the camera's on. So Chris said, yeah, Jake,
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: we could tell on the YouTube stream.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah we got we got your brother, don't yet.
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: I forget sometimes what game was it that might have
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: been old miss maybe Vanderbilt man I gave. I gave
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: a good old like through my pencil like this, you know,
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: just kind of like tossed it like in frustration, and
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: then like good like hard open hand slam on the desk.
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: Sorry about that YouTube stream, and then.
• 12:17
  Speaker 6: Like you're writing your game notes down and it's just
• 12:19
  Speaker 6: like four letter word after four letter word.
• 12:21
  Speaker 5: Were you were you a real a real hand hit
• 12:24
  Speaker 5: the table mad or were you like a Brian Kelly No,
• 12:27
  Speaker 5: I was hissed by the way.
• 12:30
  Speaker 7: You know, LSU is making it hard for Brian Kelly
• 12:33
  Speaker 7: to get another job.
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: Bro that I did that.
• 12:37
  Speaker 7: I just don't realize what he feels like. He's Oh,
• 12:44
  Speaker 7: I guess.
• 12:46
  Speaker 4: From a loser to a weekend winner.
• 12:48
  Speaker 7: You winter what because you still went out.
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: There and made that about it, which I mean, I'm
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: not trying to be fun. I wonder which job that's
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: what I'm saying.
• 12:56
  Speaker 7: I just don't even feel like maybe.
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: Because right now Penn State all they want.
• 13:00
  Speaker 7: The same person, but older.
• 13:02
  Speaker 6: He is contractually obligated if he is terminated to do
• 13:07
  Speaker 6: his due diligence and in good faith try to seek
• 13:09
  Speaker 6: another job. And they're trying to posture and say, I
• 13:12
  Speaker 6: can't do that because you're not telling me.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: What is happening. Right LU isn't the wrong. LSU's in
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: the wrong on this.
• 13:18
  Speaker 7: No, for sure, But it's also just lawyers being lawyers.
• 13:21
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's lawyers being lawyers right now. But he has
• 13:23
  Speaker 6: to go try to find another job in good faith. Now,
• 13:26
  Speaker 6: who's gonna what metric are they determining? Like in good faith?
• 13:30
  Speaker 6: Y're like, he's actually trying to do it, but he's saying,
• 13:34
  Speaker 6: I can't do that. You want me to go find
• 13:36
  Speaker 6: another job, can't do it? So you're telling me I'm fired,
• 13:38
  Speaker 6: but I'm not fired.
• 13:39
  Speaker 7: They officially fired him last or yeah, last week on Friday.
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: But with cause or just because.
• 13:46
  Speaker 7: Just because they don't like him.
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: Because they don't like.
• 13:48
  Speaker 7: Him because he was losing.
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: You were talking about what job he cause?
• 13:54
  Speaker 7: To answer your question, I.
• 13:55
  Speaker 5: Don't know why this is just this has happened since
• 13:59
  Speaker 5: the day Brian Kelly got fired at LSU, the fake
• 14:02
  Speaker 5: firing the Sunday.
• 14:06
  Speaker 4: He keeps getting connected to Michigan State.
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: Everyone keeps saying in national circles, if Michigan State opens up,
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: Brian Kelly will take that job. He apparently likes that job.
• 14:15
  Speaker 5: They are three and eight right now under Jonathan Smith,
• 14:19
  Speaker 5: not looking like they're gonna go anywhere anytime soon. So
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: if that job comes open, every single person I've heard
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: mentioned that job, first name out of their mouth has
• 14:26
  Speaker 5: been Brian Kelly.
• 14:27
  Speaker 6: For whatever reason, did it look like Brian Kelly wanted
• 14:30
  Speaker 6: to continue coaching, did not.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: Hold key.
• 14:36
  Speaker 7: That's what I told like, That's what I said after like,
• 14:38
  Speaker 7: he's trying to get that full amount because if I
• 14:40
  Speaker 7: were him, like I would just retire with that full amount.
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: Was he sixty four?
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: Now, these coaches are built way different than.
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: You and I.
• 14:47
  Speaker 7: I just don't know if Brian Kelly's built that way though, right, No, No,
• 14:50
  Speaker 7: to your point, I'm like, so I do radio with
• 14:53
  Speaker 7: Jimbo every single Tuesday.
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: That man has accomplished everything you can accomplish, got a
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: national championship as an assist and a head coach. He
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: got seventy something million dollars. When I say that man
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: wants to coach so bad. Yeah, so now he's not
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: gonna take any job, but like he wants to coach,
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: like he's got an itch and he's like, man, I
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: just like there's things that I know now that I
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: want to do with some of the things that have
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: changed in college football. He's like, I promise you, I've
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: got a plan in place, and like I'm like sitting
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: there thinking, like, coach, you've done every like you've gotten.
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: To the top of the mountain, right, You've.
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: Got seventy something Mean, this man loves to be outdoors, hunting, fishing.
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: There's a lot of people that would just go do
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: that forever. But he just there's something like he's a coach.
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: There's something that like his fathers him that he wants
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: to and Jimbo's like and for Jimbo's resume, Jimbo's one
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: hundred and twenty eight and forty eight as a head coach.
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: He was forty five and twenty five at an m Yeah,
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: twenty seven and twenty one in sec play. Now this
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: is not for here, so please don't go to Tiger
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: droppings and Secester's trying to get Jimbo at l shoot
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: and not trying to get that at all. It wouldn't
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: be the right move for anybody. But there's a lot
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: of jobs that are open right now and all these
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: candidates that people are talking about. Jimbo's resume is ten
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: times what James Franklin's is as far as actually winning something,
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: it's just conference championships, national championships.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: It's just so.
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: Funny, like people Vinia text running to hire James Franklin
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: and Jimo was just sitting over there wanting to coach,
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: and so coaching searches like to me, is like a
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: lot of them don't make a lot of sense.
• 16:32
  Speaker 7: While I understand that, I actually like I can get that.
• 16:36
  Speaker 7: Brian Kelly was like taking vacations during by week, So
• 16:39
  Speaker 7: I just, oh, he's built the same as a Jimbo
• 16:41
  Speaker 7: Fisher or like a James Franklin.
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: Came and Jimbo would never be distant cousins to each
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: other and how they go about their business.
• 16:51
  Speaker 5: Well, then think about James Franklin. He went on game
• 16:53
  Speaker 5: day literally like four days after he was fired. He said,
• 16:56
  Speaker 5: we're gonna win somewhere else he walked away from forty
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: million dollars last weekend, like he was owed forty nine million.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: He's no. O nine million because.
• 17:03
  Speaker 5: He wanted to bet on himself at Virginia Tech. So
• 17:05
  Speaker 5: like to y'all's point, yeah, a lot of coaches are
• 17:07
  Speaker 5: built like that. But when Kelly got that big contract,
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: he just seemed like he was like, Hey, it's LSU.
• 17:13
  Speaker 5: The last three coaches here have won national championships. I
• 17:15
  Speaker 5: got a cushy deal. I can just cruise my way
• 17:17
  Speaker 5: to win it. I think he wanted to win. Everybody
• 17:20
  Speaker 5: wants to win. I don't think he did the things
• 17:22
  Speaker 5: necessary in order to win.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 17:24
  Speaker 6: I might be in the minority here, and y'all can
• 17:27
  Speaker 6: y'all can tell me if I am, and in the chat,
• 17:30
  Speaker 6: please tell me if I'm wrong or if y'all disagree
• 17:32
  Speaker 6: with me. LSU, he's a pay that man his buyout
• 17:38
  Speaker 6: and get rid of it. Yes, they need you fired
• 17:41
  Speaker 6: him because he lost the football. Yes, okay, you might
• 17:45
  Speaker 6: have other things on him. I don't know what you got.
• 17:46
  Speaker 6: You apparently you think he got something that's not why
• 17:49
  Speaker 6: you fired him. They might have like all added up
• 17:52
  Speaker 6: and you put it in the cookie jar and it
• 17:54
  Speaker 6: like it.
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: Was part of it.
• 17:56
  Speaker 6: But you you fired him because you know he lost
• 17:58
  Speaker 6: the football. Pay that man what you signed up for
• 18:02
  Speaker 6: and be done with it LSU, like Brian Kelly did.
• 18:06
  Speaker 6: So I'm glad he's gone as a head coach. He
• 18:07
  Speaker 6: did a lot of cringey things like I did a
• 18:09
  Speaker 6: lot of things that that came out after the firing
• 18:12
  Speaker 6: that I'm I'm glad it's over with. Glad that experiment
• 18:15
  Speaker 6: is done and onto the next next thing. I get it.
• 18:18
  Speaker 6: But you signed a contract with him. Pay the man
• 18:20
  Speaker 6: that money, yeah, and move on.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: I got it.
• 18:24
  Speaker 6: I hate that he gets it, but like it's a
• 18:27
  Speaker 6: contracted place. I don't try to get around it. I
• 18:30
  Speaker 6: think it's dumb.
• 18:31
  Speaker 7: I'm with you.
• 18:33
  Speaker 6: Obviously they think they got something. But like this whole
• 18:36
  Speaker 6: oh we didn't fire you wasn't official, blah blah blah.
• 18:39
  Speaker 7: Yeah, especially in the break, but nobody appreciates optics anymore.
• 18:45
  Speaker 4: Just it looks really right.
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: Look, I don't care what you try to spend. Then
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: maybe they do.
• 18:50
  Speaker 6: I don't. I don't know. I'm not a not an attorney.
• 18:55
  Speaker 6: But you fired him because he wasn't good at being
• 19:00
  Speaker 6: head football coach for LSU. Nothing else is the reason
• 19:04
  Speaker 6: we find him, because I promise you if he was winning,
• 19:09
  Speaker 6: they'd overlook anything you do, not anything.
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: I take that back, but a lot.
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: Whatever, no, whatever it is to get past this and
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: to move forward, Taylor, I see that clock.
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: Brouh like whatever that is. I'm with you, like, get
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: it done, Like you need to move on.
• 19:34

  Speaker 2: All right.
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: I do want to continue some of this coaching search
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: talk and again like we haven't dived really an l shoe,
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: Like I just want to look at it from everyone's perspective,
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: because we talked about you know, Matt Campbell potentially being
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: a candidate at Arkansas. Wise lastly not a candidate at Arkansas.
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: We talked about LSU. Just hey, finally moving on whatever
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: it takes from Brian Kelly, get that over with. So
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: you know, he can go look for a job and
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: you can hire your new head coach, and that can
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: be that for Penn State. Hey, Eli Drinkwood's Brian day Ball.
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: A couple of names here, maybe Pat Fitzgerald, which would
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: actually be a great hire book.
• 23:05
  Speaker 4: Throughout Pat Fitzgerald.
• 23:06
  Speaker 5: Yesterday, Booker McFarlane said, look, this is a guy that's
• 23:09
  Speaker 5: had a lot of success.
• 23:10
  Speaker 4: Here and a lot with a little and that was
• 23:13
  Speaker 4: his point.
• 23:14
  Speaker 5: He's like he had success in the Big Ten at
• 23:16
  Speaker 5: Northwestern higher Pats Fitzgerald.
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: Brian Dable is the name they keep bringing up. That's
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: the choice.
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know that I go that way. I just.
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: I want somebody who's been a college head coach, just
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: personally what I think the game is completely completely different
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: than when Brian da Ball was an offensive coordinator for
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: a little bit at Alabama. I think college coaches are
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: college coaches, NFL coaches or NFL coaches. The fact that
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: we can kind of own one hand tell you the
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: ones that have had success in both.
• 23:54
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I think going to college to the NFL is
• 24:00
  Speaker 6: much more difficult than the other way around.
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: The greatest college, our greatest approach that we've ever seen
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: in the NFL struggle.
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: He's also gone off the deep end.
• 24:10
  Speaker 6: So I mean he's at a he's at an adult
• 24:15
  Speaker 6: cheerleader event, which, okay, I'll see that team that she
• 24:20
  Speaker 6: is one way?
• 24:21
  Speaker 7: Are we talking about Jordan's And.
• 24:22
  Speaker 5: Yes, it's like thirty five year old men competing in
• 24:26
  Speaker 5: a competition.
• 24:27
  Speaker 4: The team in front of them were like eighteen.
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: H Yeah that so let's not teach their own active
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: to each their own.
• 24:41
  Speaker 7: That's like people playing intramural softball. Like I don't really
• 24:44
  Speaker 7: have an issue with.
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: That, but but like if I'm playing in a real softball,
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: I don't think Katie's coming to watch.
• 24:51
  Speaker 7: That's fair.
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, and Katie's not fifty years older than it's true.
• 24:57
  Speaker 7: That is also true?
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: True?
• 25:00
  Speaker 7: See that? Also, wait, is this what you were talking about?
• 25:02
  Speaker 7: The girl the sister in law or Bill Belichick's daughter
• 25:07
  Speaker 7: in law like went off on her appearance.
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: I did not know, Yeah, I did not.
• 25:14
  Speaker 7: And she's like saying that she's she's saying that she's
• 25:16
  Speaker 7: assuming Pablo Tory.
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: I did see that. He does talk about it, Belichick thing.
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: It is weird. He talks about them a lot.
• 25:24
  Speaker 7: He talks about them, and just like I don't.
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: Know, I don't.
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: I don't only clips I ever see because I don't
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: follow him or anything, but it finds this way to
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: me is him talking about Belichick.
• 25:34
  Speaker 7: What was really weird was when he found her in
• 25:36
  Speaker 7: the stands at a game and like years ago, like
• 25:39
  Speaker 7: five years ago or something like that, and it was
• 25:41
  Speaker 7: like the panoramic of all the fans in the entire
• 25:45
  Speaker 7: stadium and he found Jordan's It's weird. Wow, it's creepy,
• 25:48
  Speaker 7: a little bit like a little too obsessed.
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I just, like I said, Pablo calmed down every
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: time that I see him. That's what he's talking about.
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: So well, we got to destride her there.
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Sorry, it's funny. Look when you look at the picture,
• 26:01
  Speaker 4: these guys are in their mid thirties.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: Mid thirties.
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: My guy on the right top right, he's he's with me,
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: he's my Gundy at least, and then like he's a man,
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: he's forty.
• 26:13
  Speaker 5: The girls in the pink bows look like significantly younger.
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: And then they're like some videos, it looks like they
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: are pretty good. They're doing some moves. Sure they're good
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: out there.
• 26:23
  Speaker 6: If you're not Bill Belichick was there watching his girlfriend anyway.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: Weird like, so Squag I destribed it.
• 26:30
  Speaker 6: So what I was trying to say was it, I
• 26:32
  Speaker 6: think it's easier to go from NFL to college and
• 26:33
  Speaker 6: college the NFL. Because let's take Bill Belichick aside, that's
• 26:39
  Speaker 6: an outlier. He was bad in the NFL after in
• 26:43
  Speaker 6: the last couple of years. And but if you took
• 26:45
  Speaker 6: a innovative offensive mind or defensive mind in the NFL,
• 26:50
  Speaker 6: what schematically, what people do in the NFL is ten
• 26:53
  Speaker 6: times better than what they do in college. The game,
• 26:55
  Speaker 6: NFL football game is a better product than college football. Now,
• 26:58
  Speaker 6: I know people love college football, but I'm just saying
• 27:00
  Speaker 6: from a x's and o's performance standpoint, it's better.
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: So I look around.
• 27:06
  Speaker 6: The college football landscape and all the offenses being run,
• 27:11
  Speaker 6: and I see a lot of clapp counts. I see
• 27:12
  Speaker 6: a lot of fake claps. You don't see that in
• 27:14
  Speaker 6: the NFL. You see real you see real football. You
• 27:17
  Speaker 6: see guys get un to the center. You see balanced attacks.
• 27:21
  Speaker 6: If you took a someone like Ben Johnson or Kyle
• 27:23
  Speaker 6: Shanahan or Josh McDaniels, if you took them and you
• 27:28
  Speaker 6: took an offensive mind, let's say, well, that only works
• 27:31
  Speaker 6: in one spot, right, I got it. You take them
• 27:33
  Speaker 6: and you put them into a talented team with a
• 27:37
  Speaker 6: lot of talent, They're going to destroy teams with those
• 27:40
  Speaker 6: offensive schemes.
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: Like college, could a college play this is me just
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: I don't it's rhetorical. Could a college get pick up
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: their schemes?
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure, could they pick it up. Yeah. I mean.
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: You gotta teach it the right way. And maybe it's
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: a little bit dumb down, but like.
• 27:59
  Speaker 6: I, I go, and I was doing this before before
• 28:03
  Speaker 6: the show, and at some point during the this show,
• 28:05
  Speaker 6: I'd like to get to it.
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: I was looking up the passing charts of LSU yep.
• 28:10
  Speaker 6: And looking at how how few times they throwed over
• 28:13
  Speaker 6: the middle, and then I was looking at like, who
• 28:15
  Speaker 6: I think are some of the top offensive mines and
• 28:18
  Speaker 6: offenses in the NFL and looking at their passing chart,
• 28:20
  Speaker 6: and I'd like to just kind of go through that
• 28:22
  Speaker 6: website at some point today and just like click through
• 28:25
  Speaker 6: different weeks of the year, different teams and LSU different
• 28:28
  Speaker 6: weeks of the year, and just and show you.
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: And that's all because it's it's scheme.
• 28:33
  Speaker 6: There's not a lot of there's not a lot of
• 28:36
  Speaker 6: top tier college teams that are going under center.
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: These days, it's even on.
• 28:42
  Speaker 6: The one line, even on the one yard line in
• 28:45
  Speaker 6: the NFL is probably doing it more now than they
• 28:48
  Speaker 6: were doing it ten years ago, more consistently in the
• 28:51
  Speaker 6: best offenses. So I'd like to take a look at it,
• 28:54
  Speaker 6: to look at that passing chart. But I think if
• 28:56
  Speaker 6: you took someone that's like currently like in their prime
• 28:58
  Speaker 6: as coaching and had a good offensive mine or defensive mind,
• 29:02
  Speaker 6: and you put them at the college level and you
• 29:05
  Speaker 6: implemented that instead of the you know, copy and paste,
• 29:08
  Speaker 6: clap count type offenses that you see around college football
• 29:11
  Speaker 6: right now, then I think it'd be a difference.
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: Man.
• 29:15
  Speaker 6: I was even looking at some of the top offenses
• 29:16
  Speaker 6: in college, like, there's not a ton of offenses attack
• 29:20
  Speaker 6: in the middle of the field, which is wild to me.
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: In college.
• 29:26
  Speaker 6: Maybe that's why you're starting to see a lot of
• 29:28
  Speaker 6: really good defenses emerge in college football.
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: In college to not attack the middle of the field,
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: it is the Grand Canyon college with how far the hash.
• 29:38
  Speaker 6: Linebackers and safeties just don't understand their role well enough
• 29:42
  Speaker 6: to cover the full middle of the field. And you're like, well,
• 29:45
  Speaker 6: it's such a tight area. Well, no, it's not No,
• 29:48
  Speaker 6: you got so many different levels. There's so much more
• 29:51
  Speaker 6: windows and levels that you can attack as opposed to outside.
• 29:55
  Speaker 6: Because the ball's in the air less time, it's easier
• 29:58
  Speaker 6: to throw to the quarterback.
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: You can see it better. M hm.
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: He know its being really quiet on all this coaching
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: search front the Auburn Tigers, and they're typically loud.
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: Quiet.
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: We're pretty loud over here, pretty loud over here.
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: In Bouton Rouge. But Auburn's typically loud.
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: They were trying to hire Lane Kiffing like two years ago,
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: and you know, Kiffin was there till the finish line
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: sat to say it old miss, and that's when they
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: go with Hugh Freeze.
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: Not a lot coming from the planes right now.
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: I think it's actually a good thing for them, because,
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: like I said, they've messed it up when they've been loud.
• 30:46
  Speaker 4: M John Summer on to Auburn seems to be the
• 30:51
  Speaker 4: popular choice right now.
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: Oh.
• 30:53
  Speaker 6: Someone makes a great point, mister Brown Williams in the
• 30:56
  Speaker 6: chat here to your he's arguing with you, Jake, saying
• 30:59
  Speaker 6: you need head coaching experience, which I don't believe that
• 31:02
  Speaker 6: you do. Kirby Smart, Dan Lenning and Ryan Day Clark Lee,
• 31:05
  Speaker 6: Marcus Frieven, Davis, Swainey, Dillingham. I mean everybody was a
• 31:09
  Speaker 6: coordinator at some point. Everybody's the first time head coach
• 31:11
  Speaker 6: at some point. Yeah, those guys were all in college.
• 31:13
  Speaker 6: That was my point. It wasn't that he didn't have.
• 31:17
  Speaker 6: My point was like college experience too, Like all of
• 31:21
  Speaker 6: those guys you just mentioned were college coaches. I just
• 31:24
  Speaker 6: think at some point it's gonna be it's gonna matter less,
• 31:28
  Speaker 6: especially as people continue to get paid more.
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: And you can definitely be a coordinator in college and
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: get a college job. My whole point was he hasn't
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: been a Why Why is that in the college game?
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: Why does it matter? Why's what matter? I think I
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: just think they're different. I think there I think there's
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: pro coaches. I think there's college coaches like we can count,
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: like I said, on one hand of the guys that
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: have had success, definitely is but there's there can damb
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: Pete Carroll, Jimmy Johnson, Barry Switzer. Yeah, there's there's guys
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: in the pros that don't want anything to do with
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: college football.
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: Became Jim Harbaugh. Gosh, how do I forget him? Uh? Coaching?
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: My team. That's that's about it.
• 32:11
  Speaker 6: Because a lot of pro coaches do not want to
• 32:13
  Speaker 6: coach in college. But there's some say it can't be done.
• 32:22
  Speaker 6: I'm not speaking in absolutes here. Again, there's been examples.
• 32:25
  Speaker 6: I'm just saying it wouldn't be my first choice for them.
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: Mm hmmm.
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: John Summer All grew up in Huntsville, by the way,
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: in Alabama. Nice little city, although he played at Kentucky.
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: So maybe he's waiting on Mark Stoops to get fired.
• 32:44
  Speaker 4: Kentucky's a good job if you can get it.
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: Is it a long Mark Stoops has been there longest
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: tenure in NANTYC Bob, I think it's this thing in
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: tu Lane for as long as he wants. Why not.
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: Grass isn't always it's actually blue up there.
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: It's true, a lot of blue grass. It's a blue
• 33:06

• 35:41
  Speaker 2: Who is it? I guess? Who? Do you? Who? Would
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: you want? Would you want to be the second choice?
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: We're turnover chaining it right now, Kenny Dillingham, you can
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: still do it.
• 35:55
  Speaker 6: You know it's boring though, uh hip Kelly? Okay, he's available.
• 36:04
  Speaker 7: Yeah, really recently available.
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: Actually yeah, went up as a coordinator of the coach.
• 36:12
  Speaker 6: He's just getting paid six million dollars per year to
• 36:15
  Speaker 6: be an offensive coordinator with the that's wild behavior.
• 36:22
  Speaker 7: I like Dillingham, but I think I'm gonna go drink wits.
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: Dylanhmm would actually be my choice for sure.
• 36:28
  Speaker 7: Yeah, del had just to go different. I'm gonna go drink.
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean kinda kind of been.
• 36:37
  Speaker 5: I'll switch to John sommerl I like John predictable.
• 36:41
  Speaker 4: Okay, so is it Tom Herman Tom Hermit answer?
• 36:47
  Speaker 5: The answer is Kenny Dillingham. Like for me from like
• 36:50
  Speaker 5: all of us, Laundra likes dilling Ham.
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: I think I think t O TV would fully get
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: behind Kenny Dillingham.
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, if it's not.
• 36:56
  Speaker 4: Lame, Yes, I would get behind regardless.
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, for sure, can I say that? Yes?
• 37:06
  Speaker 6: Taylor like also mimics most of LSU fan base, So
• 37:10
  Speaker 6: he doesn't like drink, right, but I could get behind
• 37:16
  Speaker 6: that as well.
• 37:17
  Speaker 4: It's not that I don't like drink as a coach,
• 37:20
  Speaker 4: I just I don't know.
• 37:22
  Speaker 6: There's two things that I think most LSU fan bases
• 37:24
  Speaker 6: one one is to maintain the current defensive staff, which
• 37:26
  Speaker 6: you would do, and the second run the football, which
• 37:29
  Speaker 6: he can do.
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: That you wanted LSU to be able to do. Yes,
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: he's kind of he kind of looks like a nerd,
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: got it.
• 37:41
  Speaker 7: But if you're a nerd, then you're smart and then
• 37:43
  Speaker 7: you're good.
• 37:43
  Speaker 3: At My last thing about drink, because I don't feel
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: like you can get in that today. He is not
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: what he looks like. I'll just I've had drink probably
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: more than any coach.
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: Ever.
• 37:57
  Speaker 5: As far as interviews, that's my thing, Like, you know,
• 38:01
  Speaker 5: not necessarily as a nerd, and you know him a
• 38:03
  Speaker 5: lot better than me, just you know when I hear
• 38:04
  Speaker 5: him and all that you were talking. You laid out
• 38:07
  Speaker 5: the day after Kelly got fired. You wanted a fiery guy.
• 38:10
  Speaker 5: You wanted a guy this this, this like to me
• 38:13
  Speaker 5: just outside looking in, he doesn't portray that. I like
• 38:16
  Speaker 5: him as a coach. I just don't know well he
• 38:18
  Speaker 5: would fit. That's that's my only thing.
• 38:20
  Speaker 6: I think if the people that are said to be available,
• 38:23
  Speaker 6: he would be my third probably.
• 38:25
  Speaker 7: Peter Burns said that like whenever he asks like people
• 38:29
  Speaker 7: will tell him like the sneaky, most physical team that
• 38:32
  Speaker 7: we've played.
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: As Missouri, it's on tape. Yeah, for sure.
• 38:36
  Speaker 7: I feel like if you're a physical team, then you
• 38:38
  Speaker 7: need a fiery coach and you need somebody who's not
• 38:40
  Speaker 7: a nerd, And I like, maybe he looks like one,
• 38:43
  Speaker 7: but do we know that he's a nerd?
• 38:45
  Speaker 6: Like I know, but yeah, I heard Peter say that too,
• 38:48
  Speaker 6: and he was like, I talked to coaches all over
• 38:49
  Speaker 6: the country and tell me one coach that's a little
• 38:52
  Speaker 6: bit under the radar, and they're all like it.
• 38:54
  Speaker 3: Eli, Yeah, I mean you go talk to Blake Baker
• 38:57
  Speaker 3: and Jake Olsen and Kevin Peoples.
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: He again, those pod guess what he wears glasses?
• 39:03
  Speaker 7: Unacceptable? Looks like a nerd. But are we talking about
• 39:08
  Speaker 7: Kurt Signetti's over here like winning and he google him
• 39:12
  Speaker 7: he looks like a nerd.
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: Too in a season just like my dad.
• 39:16
  Speaker 5: The weirdest part about the whole drink whin's glasses thing
• 39:19
  Speaker 5: like it doesn't really wear them that much.
• 39:21
  Speaker 7: I'm not I have glasses on right now. I'm I
• 39:23
  Speaker 7: can promise you I'm not a nerd.
• 39:24
  Speaker 6: It's like this is a I'm not smart coaching search,
• 39:27
