  Speaker 3: Man? I'm good man. I'm still trying to get over

  Speaker 3: that secret handshake there. I don't know how much I
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: like that. Guys. That's that's pretty interesting. Uh No, it's
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: good all as well. Mac. It's funny, dude, Like I mean,
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: I saw you a few weeks ago as we're dropping
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: the girls off for a little Dare to Dream camp.
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: It's funny because I'm kind of the same way. But
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: on radio, you know, you're kind of loud and rambunctious
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: and all that and you're just so quiet every time
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: I see you a suit chill and I'm like, man,
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: what a kind of dichotomy there between Mac on the
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: radio and Mac just chilling on the steps waiting to
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: drop off.
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: Dorry, Darry, could you invite me next time so I
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: can see this in action place?
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: You see what happens when I don't have bone and
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: Fitty around getting me wound up?
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: It'll lose my mind?
• 1:20
  Speaker 4: Clearly, were the problem, Darry?
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: He is?
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: He is quieter off the air, but I mean it's
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: it's hard not to be how he.
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: Is on the air.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: All right, anyway, my alter eo, don't spoil my Clark
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: Kent alter ego. Darry, all right, let's talk about it.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: See because after I saw you, right, you went and
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: covered SEC media days. I was watching a bunch of
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: the coverage and it was a thoroughly, thoroughly entertaining SEC
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: media day.
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: What did you think of Peak Golding?
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Because I know everybody loved him, because this dude was
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: like saying things that man, most coaches don't go there.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: But I still am so bothered on behalf of the
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: Clemson fans in the audience. I'm still so bothered by
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: that Luke Farelli situation. But what did you think of
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: Golding's a character? There's no doubt about it.
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, since that's really the only the only
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: example of campering in all of college football, I can
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: see why that would bother you so much. Really, I mean,
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: he could have gotten away with that when you know
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: nobody else seems to. It's just pretty pretty significant. So
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: I joke, I told he, I'm like, man, we need
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: you in this league. I mean, it wasn't like that
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: long ago that we had, you know, we had Steve
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: Spurrier and Less Miles and all these incredible like sound
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: bites to look forward to it. And now it's like you,
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: I mean, drink gives us a little bit, but we
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: need more people who will just tell it like it is.
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: And I holding's refreshing now. I will say that in
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: our in our you couldn't hear it on the air necessarily,
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: but our producer uh and us were keeping a counter
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: for every time the s H I T word was uttered,
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: So you know, it was a little you know, every
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: time he would say it, the producer get my ear
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: and just be like, you know, So we we had
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: Golding doing it and then we you know, Saban dropped
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: a couple of them, so we we had a pretty
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: good counter going on there. But no, man, it was
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: I told him like, it's just it's nice to have
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: a coach in the league that'll just kind of say
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: what's on his mind. And and that's him. And I
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: think that part of the thing with Golding is that
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: he's told me this too. Is you know, he he
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: took a job that Laye offered him because he just
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: wanted to keep keep coaching defense, and he wanted to
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: do it in a place that was felt like home.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: His wife's from Mississippi. She all, we wanted to go
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: back to Mississippi. And he's like, I can go and
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: live in the place that she wants to live, and
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: I can do what I want to do with this
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: coach defense. He's like, I never wanted to be a
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: head coach. I never asked for this, I never chased
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: this opportunity fell into my lap. I took it. I'm
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: happy to have it. But I think the worst case
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: scenario to Pete Golding is he's too authentic. Eventually somebody's like, Okay,
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: maybe this isn't what we need as a head coach,
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: so go coach defense. And he's like, Okay, if that's
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: my fallback, I'm gonna be just fine with that. So
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: he had worried about what people think, and I think
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: it's damn refreshing. And he's just in the hell of
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: a cool dude anyway. Man, I'm a big Pete Golding.
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Darry, our audience is asking for your response to
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: this already as well. Brett Biebelma yesterday have big ten
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: media day. Guy, I'm already bothered by from the bowl
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: game against South Carolina. This guy's been burning my biscuits
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: now for a couple of years. He goes off and says,
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: the SEC thinks it's two thousand and five, Darry, he
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: did coach in the SEC, right, and didn't do that
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: well at Arkansas.
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right, he did. I don't know. I listened
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: to that now. Beelim was a long time, very good
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: buddy of mine, okay, and I and I don't I
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: still don't know what that means, like whatever, living in
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: two thousand and five, Like, I have no idea really
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: what he means by that, because then later he said
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: something along the lines of two thousand and five was
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: the year before I started coaching, and that's why I
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: picked that year. I have no idea what that means.
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: So maybe maybe you don't reach out to him and
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: try to gain a little bit of clarity, but note
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: worthly idea. But I do know this, like you know,
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: there's it's he's not a fan of the SEC. Because
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: this will shock you, guys. But he used to tell
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: me all the time, like he's like, I don't know
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: how you coach in this league and win. But but
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: but but sleep at night doing the things that you
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: have to do. And this was before in IL and
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: everything else. And and then let's let's talk about like
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: my alma mater, Oklahoma has kind of gone in and
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: swooped his right his two right hand men, uh One,
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: they made the athletics director Rodger Denny, and then they
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: brought his his right hand guy that he used to
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: work with Bilama over as well in the last three months.
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: So he's like, man, you guys, everybody's raiding my guys.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: Yet you know we're talking about how the big ten
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: second of the SEC, y'all can't get into a championship game.
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: There are no hurt feelings or no, no, there's no
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: love Lost. I guess between Bilima and the SEC, but
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: I have no idea what he meant by going back
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: to two thousand.
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: Also, if I go back that far, Darry, I'm probably
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: not with Max, So I don't know. That might be
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: a place we kind of want to go to. Piece
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: of Quiet never hurts oh Man.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: All right, all fair Mac, though, Darry, I'll tell you
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: about allfair Mac, But I don't get you a hang
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: with that guy, all right, dar, SEC network hanging with
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: us talking ball baby, It is getting so close, all right?
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: So you you mentioned there the whole you know.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: One of the biggest storylines right is the SEC three
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: years hasn't had a team in the National Title Game.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: For many leagues, this would be okay, but for the SEC,
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: it's a major storyline. Do you when you look at
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: at how the league is shaping up this year, is
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: your gut feeling that they will break that drought and
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: win a title or play for it? And like, which
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: team do you look at and say they? I really
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: think they're the one that can break this drought?
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Mac, I don't have a gut feeling on this.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: I mean, it is far from a given. You know,
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: if at the end of this thing, you're like, hey,
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: that's four straight years they didn't have a team in it.
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: I'm not going to be shocked. But if they if
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: they do, I'm also not going to be shocked. I
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: think Georgia is really really good. They're very complete. That
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: would be my favorite to get there. I think Texas
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: certainly is a team that's there's no they have no
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: built in excuse to not play for a national championship.
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: Their roster is as good as anybody in America. That
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: includes Ohio State in my estimation. But I think there's others.
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: I think Old Miss is probably a little bit underappreciated
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: to some degree. I know they're picked third in the league,
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: but I was having so many conversations with people like
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: they're gonna fall quite a bit, and I don't see
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: it happen. And I think, and I think, honestly, I
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: think Oklahoma's built as a team that could could certainly
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: make that sort of a run. But no, I at
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: this point, I would say it's fifty to fifty whether
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: we get a team in the national title game, because
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: you can't ignore Ohio State, and you can't ignore or
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: again and Notre Dame. That's certainly a legitimate team. Miami's
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: going to be really, really good, So I know it's
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: far from a given. I mean, this college football's changed
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: a lot. And while the SEC I do still think
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: and the big tenners get tired of hearing it can
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: rightfully say it's the deepest league that does not translate
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: to championships. And we've learned that over the last three seasons.
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: Darry the Game Costs picked eleventh in the media by
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: the se for the SEC. Is that accurate to you
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: or what kind of year do you expect from Beamer
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: in the Game cost? It's a very important year at
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: that for Shane Beemer.
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: I've found in Tampa at media days, they're one of
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: the most polarizing teams. There are people that think this
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: is going to be his last season there because they're
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: not going to get it going, and there are people
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: that they think could make a push towards a playoff spot.
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: I tend to think bone that they're closer to that.
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: I think there's what he's done on the offensive line
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: and that rebuild I think certainly is impressive. He feels
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: like he's got receivers outside of just Nick Harper. It's
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: really it's it's a version of on a daily I
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: do a daily radio show based out of Oklahoma, and
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: I think there's some similarities between the two programs, and
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: the idea is you've got to improve everything around your quarterback.
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: Oklahoma feels John Mattiers good enough, you've got to fix
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: everything around him. And we know Leonora Sellers is good enough,
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: and I think Shane thinks he's fixed at least the
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: vast majority of the issues around him. Dylan Stewart's just
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: a really good place to start on defense, but I
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: think they think the defense is going to be really
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: good around him too. So you know, I think it's
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: a team that has the ability to be in that
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: five six seven range in the SEC, which could be
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: good enough to be a late season type a team.
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: We're talking about it in November for maybe you know,
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: a couple of things go their way, maybe that's a
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: playoff type team. So I do expect a big, a
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: significant jump from South Carolina and one that probably gets
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: him right off of that hot seat. Yeah.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: I tend to agree, but you're right, it is not
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of people that feel the same way
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: you do, and we do here, but there are there
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: is an equal number on the other side, saying I
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: don't see it, so it'll be fascinating. I love the
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: Kendall Briars higher. It'll be fascinating. Darry Nooka. Darry, I
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: would like to congratulate you. You and A and the
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: only Oklahoma State fan in Charlotte have stirred up a
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: bedlam here on the text line.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: In Charlotte, North Carolina.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: I've never had this happen before, he says, Get this
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: guy off the air, go pokes. He goes, I know
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: this damn sure won't be Oklahoma in the national title game,
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: likes the paycheck. The only Oklahoma State fan that that
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: exists here? What title game this guy going to?
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: That is true? The guys, I go to a title game.
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: Guys, is damn hard to go to full football seasons
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: without winning a single conference game, but the Polks have
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: managed to do that.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: That guy's got how's he still talking trash?
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: Right now? All right? Dorry, you rock man, great to
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: talk to you.
• 11:32
