  Speaker 1: Welcome back to sec football addiction presented by prize picks
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: all new users there get 150 instantly when they win
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: their first five dollar lineup using code hma blake rufino
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: ays sports the rufino and joe show my favorite national
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: show that you will find anywhere go check that out
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: as the season is getting underway here in just a
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: couple of days blake a lot of people not happy
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: with lsu and uh such as life, right? Like that's
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: just been the theme since November.
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: I saw your show the other day.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: But I do, I do understand people's gripe here and
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: I want to kind of get you on to talk
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: about the, the situation unfolding with not only a tight end,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: but now it looks like a defensive lineman kind of
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: coming back from the NFL and preseason to LSU. I
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: think this is a difficult situation and I'll shut up
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: here and let you talk, but I think it's a
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: difficult situation because we all understand the 22 class should
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: have been grandfathered in, but I understand people's frustration with
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: the appearance of where things are right now and just
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: the craziness of this sport. And I also understand that
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: anytime they can take shots at LSU, they want to
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: do that too.
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: So I get all sides, but want to hear you
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: out on it.
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know really where to start other
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: than the NCAA situation of being advised to, you know,
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: the NCAA was advised to wait until the season started
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: to adopt the five for five. Well, you have three
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: politicians that don't know the legal ramifications of what that
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: they were going to do. So the NCAA, what did
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: you think was going to happen when you told the
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: 2022 class they couldn't be involved?
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: What did you expect?
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: Now, TJ, as we're talking, The Big Ten has come
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: out with a statement.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: The SEC meets again today.
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: The ACC, you know, the ACC, the Big 12 all
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: will meet to quote unquote band. They're not pro players.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: I mean, they've been cut, I guess, but they are
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: in some regards. I guess my question is, who are
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: you really wanting to blame? Because I do think Lane
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: and LSU are taking majority of the blame here. for
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: bringing in two players. I ask, what about Texas, who
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: brought in a starting offensive lineman? I ask about UCLA,
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: who brought in a linebacker. So as the Big Ten
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: announces that no former pro player can do this, UCLA
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: now has a starting linebacker from James Madison.
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: Is he eligible?
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: Indiana brought back two starters that were going to be
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: 24 years old, and then they got ruled ineligible, and
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: now they're trying to sue to become eligible. So again, LSU,
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: I feel like TJ is just taking the brunt of
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: this because people don't like LSU right now and they
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: don't like Lane. Where's the energy for the other 45
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: players that are part of these lawsuits?
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I, I think it's tough because I think people
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: can objectively say like, Hey, I don't like the way
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: that this looks, but when it is a, a Lane
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Kiffin situation and the vitriol is the right word.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: I mean, you catch it more than, more than I see,
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: but I do think people do it. Sending super chats,
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: calling me fat back and sending Lane.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: Kevin is a disruptor, right?
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: And Newberg used to talk about this and people, certain
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: people get in places and they're disruptors.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: And I don't mean that as a bad way. I
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: think Texas tech is a disruptor, right?
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: Like they are disrupting the norms of our sport. And Lane,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Kevin kind of does that to an extent to not
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: in a bad way. I'm not saying that it's bad to,
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: I mean, Kurt Cignetti is a disruptor in our sport
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: based on what he's done the last two years. And
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: so I think when people, when the norms get challenged,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: people are very quick to.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: Say, oh, that's not the way we like it, right?
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: We like Alabama and we like Georgia and we like
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Ohio State and we like Notre Dame to some extent
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: and the powers that be.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: When there are shifting forces, I think people.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: are quick to be reluctant to that, whether it's Indiana
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: or Texas Tech or whatever. I think with LSU, you
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: add in the Lane Kiffin factor and it takes us
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: to another level. Had this been Georgia, I think people
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: would still be upset. I don't know if they would
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: be upset to the level that they are. And I
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: think that's fair. I think people can take a hard
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: line stance and say, you know, similar to Sorsby, right?
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: Everyone agreed that Sorsby shouldn't play, but because it was
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Texas tech and because how loud their boosters have been and,
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: and the way that they've disrupted the sport, it made
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: it so much worse. Had it been Utah, had it
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: been Cincinnati, which I guess he wasn't Cincinnati, but had
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: it been somebody else, people would have still been upset,
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: but maybe not to the same level.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: And I do agree. It's very easy to blame lane.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: And it's very easy to point the finger at the
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: sec and say, they need to do something or LSU
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: is doing this or doing that. And the blame really
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: belongs with the NCAA. You talked about them not including
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: the 2022 class. I mean, Bud Elliott of Cover 3
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: thinks that that was intentional so that it would get
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: a little bit more crazy.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: I massively disagree with that.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: You mean to tell me that they wanted to get
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: sued 67 times and it was intentional? I don't buy
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: that because the Chambliss thing happened as well. TJ, I'm
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: sorry to interrupt you, but I don't buy, and I
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: like Bud a lot, but I don't buy that. No,
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: what happened was is that they did not know the ramifications.
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: They admitted in open court, literally in a state of
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: Louisiana when me and Matt Zenitz reported this, they didn't know, TJ.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: Right? I mean, you want me to hit the button
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: and say sources? Sources. They didn't know.
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: So, again, that's not necessarily the truth because here's what's
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: going to happen with that. The conferences are now going
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: to take rule and enact their own rules. That gives
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: the NCAA less power. So why would they do that intentionally?
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: I don't agree with that, nor do I buy that.
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: But let me ask this question. TJ, who started this?
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: Meaning bringing back players.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: Who started this, this go around?
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: Because it's not LSU, it's Indiana. Yeah. So Indiana brought
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: in two starters.
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: Who, by the way, Lewis Murphy had a PBU against
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: Carson Beck in the national championship game.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: Okay. He's 25 years old.
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: I mean, Trinidad Chambliss had an attorney, I mean, a judge,
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: excuse me, who is a booster of Ole Miss.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: So let me just understand all of this.
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: You're okay with the NCAA not godfathering in the 2022 class,
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: and you're okay with Trinidad Chambliss. You're okay with Daly.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: But then if a specific school does it, this is
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: different than Brendan Sorsby.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: He cheated.
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: He had inside knowledge. OK, about a situation and bet
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: against his team. He bet against them. So I also
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: think that it's just a lazy argument to say, hey,
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: these kids sued and they won. TJ, I think the
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: SEC and Big Ten and other conferences are going to
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: rule that these guys can't play. I mean, I know
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: the Big Ten has already done it as we are
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: currently speaking.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: What happens if they're sued? And I think they will be.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: I mean, I absolutely, I mean, if you, if you're
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: willing to.
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: Well, the TRO does state that they, that the conferences
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: can't do anything anyway.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: So good luck.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: I'll get right back to chatting with Blake, but first
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: I want to give some love to our friends over
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: at alumni hall. Make sure that you do our shopping
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: at alumni hall.com or in store.com. And using our code, CFA15,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: you get 15% off of your order. Doesn't sign you
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: up for anything. It's not a subscription. It's not a
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: monthly fee. Just save some money using our code, CFA15.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: Alumni Hall has the biggest and best selection of game
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: day apparel anywhere in the country, and you should be
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: shopping with them. If you haven't geared up for the
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: big game against Clemson, make sure that you do so
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: at Alumni Hall. Again, online or in-store, CFA15 works great.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: Now back to Blake.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they are, again, the blame... the blame squarely to
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: me falls on the NCAA. Like we, you know, it
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: made no sense for the 2022 class to not be
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: included in this. And I thought lane who I know
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: people will, again, we'll get on lane for the different
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: things he says. I thought his explanation was about as
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: straightforward as you could get.
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: Like I, people liked it. Oh, he's dodgy. Or he
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: says this, or he doesn't admit to this or whatever.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: Like fine.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: I thought his answer was about as straightforward as it
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: could get. He says it's ridiculous that they weren't included
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: in it anyway. Had they known about it back in
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: the time, you know, this would be their fifth year. Like,
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: it doesn't make any sense. We're not asking about 2018 kids.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: We're not asking about a ninth year senior. We're talking
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: about guys that would have been eligible, would have had
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: a decision to make. And so I get it from
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: the player's perspective. I saw what you said on AYS.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: You guys all, I mean, for LSU fans that were complaining,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: you guys all complained that Brian Kelly wasn't doing everything
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: he could to win. There's a loophole here. And whether
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: you like it or not, Lane's taking advantage of it.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: And it looks like we'll take advantage of it, too.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: And LSU is trying to win. Now, if a judge
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: went the other way and said, look, we're going to then. Yeah,
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: then Lane wouldn't do it right at the loophole no
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: longer existed. I don't think he's trying to necessarily cheat,
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: just like the the old the faking injuries thing. There
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: was a loophole that existed, and you were able to
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: get a competitive advantage. I get it from LSU's perspective.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: I get it for the player. Yeah, I would absolutely
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: go back to college for.
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: Another year if I wasn't going to make an NFL roster.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: Why wouldn't you?
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: What's going to happen when these players can prove that
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: they're going to make more money in college when the
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: NCAA didn't grandfather in a rule because the SEC accepted
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: the rule as well?
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: Again, what's going to happen if they sue?
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: Here is my worry if I do have a worry
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: from the LSU side of things, T.J., Does the SEC
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: take this out on LSU from a penalty standpoint? Do
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: they throw egregious penalties and throw flags and purposely throw
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: games for them?
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think the the, the, the situation is I,
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: I mean, the say the SEC comes out and mirrors
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: the big 10, which maybe we should both keep Twitter
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: up to, to see how this happens.
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: That's why every notification I'm looking down, this will happen.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: Like as we're freaking recording. Um, let's say they do that.
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: The player will sue and the player will probably win,
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: but then the sec can certainly say, okay, well, yeah,
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: we can't tell the player that he can't play, but
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: if you play this player, we're going to penalize the school,
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: whether that be fines or whether that be, you know,
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: a ban from the sec champion, who knows, right?
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: Like, well, who knows what the actual penalty would be,
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: but I think that's.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: What the sec would say is, okay, well then you
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: need to make a decision LSU or anyone else that's
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: going to try and do this.
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: If you do it, the player can play.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: We can't stop you from playing because the judges said that,
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: but now, now we'll penalize the school. And I don't
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: know if they would do that or not. I, I
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: would think that it's probably a coin flip. but I'll
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: tell you this. I'll tell you something that does annoy me.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: And this has nothing to do with LSU. It's just
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: the same situation.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: It annoys me.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: That right is going to probably play this year and
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: probably play all 12 games. If not more, if, if
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: LSU qualifies for more than, you know, 12 games, I,
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: I am annoyed that Tennessee's best linebacker is sitting out
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: the first two games for taking a $ 400 flight. I
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: think that we need, and I do think people also
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: look at this situation and say, okay, where's the common
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: sense here where, and this is not LSU's fault that
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: he is sitting out those first two games. And I
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: have no clue why Tennessee hasn't sued for this, because
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: I feel like that's a slam dunk. We got guys
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: that got sacks in the NFL that are going to
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: come back and play in college. Why has Tennessee not
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: sued for this? I have no clue, but it annoys
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: me that guys played in the NFL preseason got paid
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: and now are going to play. And this kid took
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: a $ 400 flight, withdrew, paid it back. And he's going
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: to sit for two games. I think that's where the
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: average fan looks at this and says, but I don't
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: know who to be mad at, but I'm going to
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: just be mad at somebody, and LSU's taking.
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: The brunt of that.
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, they're going to take the brunt of it,
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: which I will tell you right now, no one that's
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: an LSU.
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: Fan gives a flying broody poo. They don't care.
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: I mean, because what are you really asking an LSU fan?
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: Are you going to be mad at your head coach? Again,
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: I know you talked about me bringing this up on AYS.
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: Are you mad at Lane Kiffin for making his roster
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: the best possible roster that he can make it? No,
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: you're not going to be mad at that.
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: Here's the thing.
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: Tennessee under Hypo, whether it's the Nico situation, the Boo
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: Carter situation, this situation. I mean, Lane Kiffin went up
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: to a Knoxville airport and stole Sam Leavitt back after
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: Washington leaked the Desmond or the Mon Williams news.
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: Okay?
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: I mean, like, Hypo, why aren't y'all doing something? I mean,
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: here is the thing with Arian Carter. You can't be
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: hypocritical here. Now, I'm not calling you hypocritical, but you
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: can't be hypocritical. The reason why I say you can't
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: be hypocritical, you can't say that you don't like... these
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: players not being there. Arian Carter applied for the NFL draft.
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: He was going through the NFL draft process. So how
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: can you be in a situation where this bugs you
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: and bothers you and say that you don't want these
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: players to come, but then Arian Carter does the same
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: thing and you're mad that now he's suspended. Trust me,
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: I'm with you. Actually, he should be able to play.
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: If I'm Tennessee, I'm rolling him out there week one
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: and say, do something about it.
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: Yes, a thousand percent. You know, like do something about it.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: Bring it on. There's nothing that you can do. Oh,
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: you're going to make us vacate two wins? Okay. I
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: can't say what I was about to say. This is
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: a family show. This is a family show.
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: But I ask the question, how are you mad that
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: other players are doing it and then Arian Carter went
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: through the process and then decided to come back because
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: he had an injury?
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: So, again, I do think that there's a lot of
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: hypocritical stances here because here's the truth. They don't like Lane.
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: It's easy to hate LSU. It's easy to hate him.
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: Lane was asked yesterday, why do you think that everybody's
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: pointing at you?
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: He goes, why do you think? Why do you think
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: everybody's pointing at us?
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: So, again, as an LSU fan, I would not be
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: mad that he's trying to do this. But at the
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: same time, when you bring up Carter, you can't be
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: hypocritical to say, hey, these guys were trying to go
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: in the draft.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: TJ, let me make this very well clear.
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: You do know that Texas has an interior offensive lineman
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: that started 50-plus games that's currently per Sark. And Sark double-dipped.
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: He said, yeah, I don't like any of this. Well,
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: Campentil came out, and then you've had an interior offensive
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: line problem.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: TJ, he was the number one guard in practice.
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: So, again, for me, you can say that I'm being
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: a homer, but I ask, if you're going to be
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: logical on the situation.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: What about Daly? What about Texas?
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: What about UCLA that's any different than what LSU just
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: pulled off?
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: I mean, again, I ask.
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: So, look, we can defend LSU or defend Lane. They
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: don't need defending from me. It's going to be interesting
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: to see how these conferences rule. This is a shot
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: at the NCAA because if these conferences are going to
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: go in there, TJ, and have to enforce rules, what
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: power does the NCAA have?
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's why if I am Tennessee... I'm just playing. Like,
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: I'm shocked. You're not making the playoffs anyway. You're not
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: making the playoffs. And guess what? Guess what? The NCAA
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: doesn't run the college football playoffs. Right. I don't think
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: this is happening. I'm excited for Faison.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: I don't know how many Tennessee fans are going to
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: catch this.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: I think they're going to be a fun team this year.
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: I don't think they're competing for a playoff spot. Do
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: you mean to tell me that if the NCAA said, hey,
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: we're vacating those two wins from early in the year,
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: and they went 11-1, that the playoff committee would not
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: put them in? Do you really think for half a
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: second the playoff committee would even consider the NCAA?
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: No.
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: But here's the thing. You want rule and order?
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: Why doesn't the college football playoff start giving situations and
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: doing situations where and putting it in situations where they say, hey,
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: you can't do that, and we're going to penalize you
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: for a postseason ban.
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: Right. You want to end this shit really quickly? You
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: want to end this right now.
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: The college football playoff committee comes out and says, if
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: you sign a pro contract, you.
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: Will not be eligible for the college football playoff. Instantly. Yep,
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: it'd be done. Well, remember.
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: You you what you're asking for, Blake, is you're asking
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: for an adult in the room to stand up and
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: there are no.
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: I mean, you know, did you not hear?
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: So there's no adults on this show and there's no
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: adults in the NCAA's whole process either.
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: You see statement last night.
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: I mean, and then Tony Petitti, for what it's worth,
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: you want to know why people keep saying that the
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: Big Ten is overtaking the SEC?
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: Look at what happened in the last 12 hours. The leadership.
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: The leadership.
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: I don't like Tony Petitti's guidelines for a college football playoff.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: I hate him.
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: I think he's an idiot when it comes to that.
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: He wants money. Of course he does. Of course he does. However,
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: he just literally went full MJ versus Utah, stepped back,
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: and hit a mid-range jumper to win. All right, I'm
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: not trying to get political, but just stay with me here.
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: It's what Trump does. What does the political people do?
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: Trump takes a situation that 95% of America agrees with
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: and makes it a big deal when it's really not
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: that big of a deal.
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: He gets a win. What did Tony Petitti just do? Right.
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: No Big Ten teams were concerned. This wasn't a big story.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: But you know what he saw? He saw weakness from
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: the SEC, and he said, I could pull a win
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: right here. I could just put out a statement. and
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: make a win.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: It does.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: It's not going to matter. And I'm going to make
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: myself look better than the SEC.
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: And you know what? That's not even the first time
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: he's done it.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: He did it with the SEC going to a nine-game
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: schedule and not getting the strength of schedule stuff. He
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: did it with– he's done it four times this offseason.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: He bullied them. He bullied them into a nine-game conference schedule.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: With nothing back. They got nothing back for it. Nothing.
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: And the top 15 teams with strength of schedule and
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: strength of record at the end of last year, 14
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: of them were from the SEC in an eight-game conference.
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: He's, he's literally running the big 10 and the sec
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: by bull. He's the, he's the town bully that is
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: bullying Greg Sankey into whatever the heck he wants.
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: I got a question. Should Greg Sankey be fired? What has,
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: what is the sec done?
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: And I mean, Ask yourself this question 10 years ago
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: and then say, what are you smoking? But what has
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: the SEC done exceptionally well now? In fact, they've made
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: it even harder on themselves.
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: I was talking with Allie about this the other day.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: Not only was the SEC already the toughest, you just
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: said 14 of the top 15, add a ninth game,
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: and then why not add a power four opponent on
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: the outside of it too to make it even tougher?
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: The Big Ten's looking over there like, Brother, do these
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: guys have a brain cell?
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: Like, Indiana ain't doing that. No, they're playing games. They're
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: playing games.
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: TJ, USC and Notre Dame aren't playing because of this.
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: They saw the college football playoff and said, wait a minute,
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: wait a minute. You're not going to penalize me for
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: not playing P4 teams outside the conference?
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: They didn't. They don't. Yeah. And USC was like, yeah, no.
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: Blake, Rufino, AYS. Sorry, but you can hate them all
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: you want to. Here's where I am as a guy
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: who has a favorite team inside the SEC. By the way, TJ,
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: go to any, any. Rufino and Joe show. I know
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: I've said this on SEC Unfiltered. I know I said
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: it on AYS. I have been on Greg Sankey's arse
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: for probably four years. Like baseball, officiating, scheduling. TJ, how
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: about this? Georgia has never gone to College Station in football.
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah. LSU, by the way.
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: Went to Texas, the University of Texas in baseball, seven
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: straight times, and they made LSU a national champion, go
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: on the road to Texas again.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: Again.
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: Look, I could be on this soapbox all day long
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: about how he's fumbling the bag. If he's not careful, TJ,
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: Greg Sankey is going to get pushed out.
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: Well, I know they're not happy about the nine-game schedule.
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: I know they're not happy about the way they're.
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: Going to lose the playoff debate, too, because he'll get
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: bullied in that. He's getting bullied. He's getting bullied at
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: every turn. Well, did you hear Kirby, by the way?
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: Remember when Kirby won the SEC title and Greg Sankey
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: handed him the trophy? He goes, this was no thanks
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: to Greg. He gave me the toughest schedule in the country.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: Yes. You remember that?
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: I mean, remember his face afterwards, TJ, he is, he
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: almost ruined the Southland conference. Yeah.
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: He's and he's any, and again, you just look at
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: the decisions that have been made and the sec.
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: Is still a great conference. Like, don't get me wrong.
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: I'm not, but man, they, they've made it excruciatingly tough
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: on themselves and so much tougher than it needs to be. And,
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: You talk about it, man, like just the lack of
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: leadership is so, so apparent. So Blake Ruffino, AYS, and
