  Speaker 3: feels like, you know, it feels like I had to
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: have it. Oh wait, economy vibes.

  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, I think that was actually mentioned on
• 0:41

• 0:48

• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Bears are up against the Washington Commanders. Hail Mary, game back.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: We're coming back. So first things first, we cooked up
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: a little parlay for the Bills game. We're talking about
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Josh Allen anytime touchdown, Bijon anytime down, Josh Allen plus
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: two fifty pass and run stats Bijeon plus one hundred
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: rushing yards. Now, you can ride with the boys, or
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: you can cook up something for yourself. But what you
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: need to know is that fandal is giving all customers
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: a profit Boost token to use either Monday on either
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: Monday Night football game. So whether you think the Bills
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: are gearing up for a rebound game against Pennix after
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: their loss last week, or you think the Commanders will
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: really start to heat things up after Daniel's return, make
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: sure to drop a profit Boost token on either of
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: those games to make sure winnings get even bigger. Just
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: head Tofandle dot com Forward slash bus and to get started.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: I like our parlay. I'm a fan of our. I
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: think there's a big Josh Allen goes off game.
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: It's one hundred rush plus receiving yards.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: That's not what it says in the card. He said
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: it's one hundred rush plus receiving.
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: So that's even better for you to be one hundred
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: rushing yards.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: It's rushing and receiving combined. This two fifty I think
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: that's okay, So that originally got back to I think
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: that's what it was perfect.
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: I know we'll touch on this when we get to
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: the locker room again Wednesday evenings. The Boys and Josh
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: Pate from on the bus with the Boys Channel. I

• 2:24
  Speaker 3: confession for this is for all the boys, for everybody,
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: This for everybody, because this is on me. However, I
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: do think you guys, we'll understand because there at times
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: there are some solo missions on parlays that you have
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: to play and over the Sunday, I literally Sunday.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: I saw an Instagram thing yesterday about this.
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: Bro here we go, but here's a parlay that's open
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: for me, and I'm glad we're talking about it because
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: this could be the jinx that makes it. Losing, I'll
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: feel much better. But if I win this have I
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: had an eight lake parlay plus eighteen hundred and it
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: was a Denver money line, Rams money line, Patriots money line,
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: Colt's money line, Seahawks money line, Tampa Bay money line,
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: Packers money line. And now I just need the commanders

  Speaker 3: to hit how much you put on it? One hundred
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: to win? Nineteen hundred?
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: What's about out right now?

• 3:20
  Speaker 3: for sure riding with it. Would you play now? Yesterday morning,
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: Sunday morning? But now I'm feeling guilty just because that
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: was one I did. I know. We share O parlays
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: in the group chats. Sometimes there are parlays we just
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: do on our own. Like I'm thinking of myself. Am
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: I who I think I am? Because I've been a
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: little hot since I've shaved the head?
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you've been hot.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: So you have a solo mission text thread with yourself.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: Hey buddy, you're rolling right now? Yeah, seeing the same shit?
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah for real, I happened just working, been working. Good
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: news for Will what was your what was there? College football?
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: Again? For and one four and one missed on Indiana,
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: which again apologies to the Indiana fans. I know it
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: went pretty hard last week because we got this little
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: thing we like to do with Coach Landing and Big
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: Netti and a simple lol after the game with Big
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: Netti after and three sig emojis. Indiana's beaten some ass
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: right now, they're one of the best teams in college.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Fo Yeah, great for Will College even We'll come to
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: the rondo plus four and one now turn around. In
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: a moment of silence, I went on one to five buddy
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: the way the Red River shootout was taking place, and
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: we didn't have much service. But we go away from
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: that Missouri Alabama game and Alabama's up ten. I'm thinking,
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: I said it on ESPN, don't be surprised if Alabama
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: wins this game by double digits. I felt really good
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: about that. We walk away, we get through the tunnel
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: and finally service arts popping up. Everyone just in their
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: phone and we was like, ooh, shows it over and
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: Missouri loses by three. I'm literally trying to speak in
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: existence for the next forty five. I think the line
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: was like two and a half, right, it was a
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: one A yeah, it might have been three. It might
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: have been a push.
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: Bama's up ten right now, but Miszoo has the ball
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: and they're in Bama territory. So it was one of
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: the situations where they score fast. I don't know if
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: they in a spot where they got an onside kick it.
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: We didn't get to see the ending of it. But
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: once they won, he's like, what was this spread on
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: the game? I was like three and a half. He's like,
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: are you sure?
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: One?
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: Two?
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: And I'm like, no, it was three.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: You're totally sure. Here's the funny part. It's first off,
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: half of Missouri Stadium is construction right now, so you're
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: standing in the ends. I was on the field. I'm
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: standing in the end zone where the construction's happening, and
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: I'm thinking about, first off, wow, Alabama really needs this win. Secondly,
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: Missouri they're down ten, so they're trying to score and
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: get the onside and the moment that dude crossed the
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: goal line, I'm standing next to three of my staffers
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: and I just yelled, they got him, they got him,
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: and everyone else in that building, and they thought I
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: was talking about the dude scoring the touchdown. I was
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: talking about you. I was talking about you. Thank got
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: him because you were the only one I knew that
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: said they're gonna pull away. It was one of those
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: weird things where the almost the entire world, it felt like,
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: including me, said I'm gonna take Alabama. It's gonna be
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: really close. Though normally everyone's in Unison, something other than
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: what they're in Unison about happens. The game played out.
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: First off spread was three to three and a half,
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: total was fifty one. Final score was twenty seven to
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: twenty four. Everything about the game played out according to script.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, man, and anybody knew when we that was in
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: the tunnel. We get in the we get in the
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: car service to go to the airport. He asked the
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: next person that he sees, Hey, what was the spread
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: on the game? Was it uh and.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: A and a half? To curse me, but I think
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: it was two and a half.
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: We get on the we get on the planes.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking of myself because I've already gone through the games.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, I'm I'm oh and four right now
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: going into Michigan, USC.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: Actual fandl App tells you it was three and a half.
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: He pit them up.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: Hey, I got to get up. I got a guy
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: here at stand outside the carnival righte who says he
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: swears it was too and a half. Yeah, you guys,
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: sure he didn't get.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: On the planet, he genuinely asked again out loud. And
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: I'm just kind of jukling to myself, like he can't
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: take this loss right now.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I couldn't take it because I'm thinking of myself
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: at the very least win one. Yeah, because I've I've
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: been at the top of our like it's been very
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: close between the three of us, but I've been sitting
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: on the top and I'm thinking myself, eventually it'll fall,
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: and I know it and I feel it, and I
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: know it's gonna come. But when it's actually happening, You're like,
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: I really didn't prepare for it. I just said the words.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: I didn't emotionally prepare for this loss that I was about.
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: You're going for going into Michigan, USC which what we
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: got to witness on the locker room with the confidence
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: the noself.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: The locker room, I think if you look that back,
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: you could I'm nervous. I even say, like I'm nervous
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: with this game, Like they match up really well with us.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: What they do well is what we don't do well,
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: and vice versa. But I thought, at the end of
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: the day, like toughness is gonna win. And I was right. Yeah,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: I was right. Toughness.
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: Toughness the tougher.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: As much as I want to sit here and beat
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: my chest about Michigan, like the thing that makes me
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: so prideful in Michigan is like when the back's against
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: the wall, they scratch and claw and fight and you're
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: gonna you're gonna walk away, You're gonna miss it. You're
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: being missing a limb broken, like you're gonna have you're
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: gonna beat up when you play Michigan. And that game,
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: we had our guys getting hurt. Their guys are celebrating
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: on the sideline in the fourth quarter. They run for
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: what was it, two and twenty five yards.
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: Over five yards per carry, over five yards per carry.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: And that's not with their starting running back in the
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: second in the Big ten. Now that that's not with
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: their second string bag that's what they walk on running
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: back and the mistackles. So yeah, we got our ass beat.
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: Good news.
• 8:19

• 8:38
  Speaker 3: Opened up at five and a half before Washington open.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: Up at five and a half point favorite in the
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: Big House.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: In the Big House, Washington got down twenty one to
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: Maryland and were on the road.
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: I know twenty four in the fourth quarter to win.
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: Washington is a tough team, Like the only team they've
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: lost to is Owaha State.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what do they do really well? Throw the ball? Well,
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: they got a good running back, they do rpo, they
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: get the ball out really asked. I think, what's the
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: quarterbacks name for usc? Mayava? Mayava? He got They were
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: showing it during the game like he was eating the
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: ball out in like one point three seconds. Good play,
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: like getting the ball making fast decisions. Like the pass rush.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: They're like they know our pass rush is really good.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: And they just, oh, they know our pass rush is
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: really good, so they just decided to.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: Take care of it.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: They did a great They did a great job. They
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: did it. There's some scheme things I wasn't a fan of,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: but at the end of the day, it's mazing blue.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: We got to handle the Huskies.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: Can I say this though ahead, You did not disappear
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: Saturday night. You were vulnerable, you were hurt, and you
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: were bleeding, but you were texting through it. You were
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: texting through I was texting through it. And there are
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: a lot of parentheses after the text.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: I just text Peyton, I'm like, I'm so sorry, because
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: his whole thing was I got a Michigan problem until
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: Michigan proves me wrong. And I'm like, hey, I'm I'm
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: so sorry. We let you down. Literally the next play
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: probably underword to Marsh sixty four yard bomb, we're probably down.
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: We're backing it, we're probably yeah, yeah, yeah, we're probably not.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Like we're trying to reverse psychology. Text that text mess
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: exactly what I needed to do.
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: Because remember that's all we needed after the Nebraska game.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: For the viewers who don't know, you're laying on the
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: field out there and it's tough. You've lost, and I've
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: lost a bet you've won. I go in the Michigan
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: locker room with you. You're celebrating, You're holding up the
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: bus and bowl trophy. Everyone's happy in there, and I
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: just kind of got to stand off on the cycles.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: I'm the only guy in that whole room that picked
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: Michigan to lose the game. But and in the Michigan
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: locker room after the game, and everyone keeps making eye
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: contact with me. You keep making eye contact with me.
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: Everyone keeps making eye contact with me, And I'm in
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: there learning a lesson. I'm just never going against this
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: team again. When I'm on the fence, I'm gonna I'm
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: gonna ride with Michigan. And I rode with Michigan and
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: we crashed. This is what it feels like.
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, good you Were you riding with Michigan for the
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: Michigan problem or did you, in your heart of hearts
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: think Michigan was gonna win that game?
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: Kind of both The model liked Michigan. I thought I
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: liked Michigan. I had the Michigan problem to overcome. So
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: now what do I do. I'm probably gonna pick them
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: begin against Washington. I don't really know what to do.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: I feel like no matter what. I feel like no
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: matter what, because see, I thought Kansas may have Texas
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: Tech on upset alert a little bit too, so I
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: said it, and then I get text from the Texas
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: Tech staff after they blow him out. Hey bro, you
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: helped us out. Thanks. That puts me in a no
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: win position. If I vocalize that someone's on upset alert
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: and then they weaponize it in their building and the
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: upset doesn't happen because of me. What do we really
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: do at that point? Do I just write all my
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: picks in an envelope, don't say it on air?
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, these were my picks. Yeah, you should do that
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: one week. Trust it keeps going.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: Trust bee bro.
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah it is. You've put yourself in this position though,
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: going back to sitting in the car listening people open
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: stuff up, putting the volume down, and going through the
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: whole segment yourself. You've done great now people.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: Listen hoops to amongst us thought it would turn into
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: this though not.
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: I don't know how are you feeling about the rest
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: of the season for Michigan.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: It's all winnable, like, but how are you feeling when.
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: You watch, because again I had USC and my whole
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: thought process was the way Michigan goes about things offensively,
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: like as far as a lot of it has moved
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: the pocket, you're wanting to run the ball. The way
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: the resume that they had was they had these these
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: big explosive runs by your running backs that kind of
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: you know, it's got Haynes top of the league or
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: top of the country in rushing yards and everything else.
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: But it's like if teams are able to keep the
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: explosives from happening and you're behind.
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: And they broke explosives on your.
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: Right and you're behind, like, it's just it doesn't seem
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: like a team that's built to like come from behind
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: keep up offensively. So that's where my question comes in. Like,
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: when you have washing coming in, you kind of look
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: at the rest of the year and you kind of
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: see what Michigan has been doing offensively from your vantage
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: point when you're watching at home, it's like, how are
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: you feeling about the Michigan one?
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: When when I'm watching that game, there's so many things
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: that I look at that's okay, that's all you can
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: fix that The mistackles you can fix like USC goes
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: down in the first drive and Scoes seven should have
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: been off. Its pass interference should have absolutely been off.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: It's a pass interference. However it wasn't. And then we
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: go and it's like, Okay, the noise has been what
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: you just said. Michion has to run the football to
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: be successful. They get these explosives. If you take away
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: the explosives, then Michigan's not. But it's like you can
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: say that all you want. However, it's like Michigan, Hey,
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: don't get the explosives, but every game, Michigan gets the explosives.
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: So like what kind of back and forth we really
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: did with it? Seemed to me that like Michigan was
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: really starting to find in the Wisconsin game, they're a
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: passing threat, where it's like, Okay, McCaulay starts to come
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: on a little bit. This Mars kid, who's a five
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: star freshman, he's really starting to figure out the playbook.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: He's got great hands. During the course of the game,
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: you realize these guys have really put a lot of
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: intention in the drop ball. So I think there was
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: maybe one, if not zero. So it's like, okay, you
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: see there's some level of course correction there. But you
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: start the first game with a three and out and
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: you try to throw the ball three times, and it's like, well,
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: that's not what we're saying. When we need to have
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: a vertical threat, it's like, let's utilize the run game.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: We know the safety's going to come in the box.
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: We know for everybody's playing Michigan, you've got to stop
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: the run, So take advantage of it with the pass
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: and be a little more fifty to fifty. Be creative
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: in your past, be creative in your motions, and it
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: just seemed like Lincoln Riley had a better game plan
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: going into that from an offensive standpoint against our defense,
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: and their defense put us in third and long situations
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: and we're able to feast. Like it's said sometimes when
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: it's snowballs. Looking to the rest of the year, I
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: think there's a lot of times where teams are a
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: lot better than the way they played, and that's the
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: mission is a perfect example for that. They got their
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: ass kicked. And now you go into a team that
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: everyone in the Big Ten respects. Washington is a football club.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: You get them in the East Coast time zone, you
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: get them for them what would be at nine am kickoff,
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: because it's playing at eleven or noon, and so now
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: it's like, okay, let's run the ball effectively, Let's be creative.
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: Let's move the.
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: Pockwet Brice underward and show sustained drives. Let our defense
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: have a comeback game and say, hey, I know we've
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: failed last game because we have five hundredards off. It's
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: put on us. But let's let's redirect receivers at the
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: line of scrimmage. Let's push back the offensive line. Let's
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: form tackle and if we're not a good position to
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: be to tackle, let's slow a guide down so the
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: calvalry can come. Let's see team football starting to happen,
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: because all these games are winnable. And then you've got
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: ohiosted at the end of the year, which we've been
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: four and oh against. So it's like it's not like
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: the season's over. It's just now you've put yourself in
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: a position where it's basically a win and go home.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: If you think you're a college football team.
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah that's about USC man, USC look good.
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: This is the week.
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: What are your thoughts?
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: Who they play this week?
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: They are playing at Notre Dame this week. Yeah, a
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: lot of Southern cow fans wanted to paint last week
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: as the statement week, and I was very careful because
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: I don't believe that was a statement, because I don't
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: believe you make a statement against teams your favorite against.
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: You make a statement by going on the road. You
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: do the whole cross country time zone thing. You go
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: play a team that is physically superior to you, has
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: been talent wise superior to you, in part because the
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: general manager for you now is who put that roster
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: together in Chad Boden. That would be the statement to me.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: But it wasn't very impressive that USC did what they did.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: They held Michigan. I think there long as we run
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: was thirteen yards, by the way, So they totally inverted
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: the game script the way people like me and you
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: thought it would play out. Okay, Now, if USC were
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: to go to Notre Dame and win, two things happened there.
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: Notre Dame's out of the playoff. That's the first thing
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: that happens. The second thing that happens is USC is
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: a bona fide playoff threat. Third thing that happens is
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: you all of a sudden look at Oregon's schedule down
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: the road, and you realize, oh wow, USC goes to
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: Oregon in November, and that becomes a monster game. So
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: a bunch of dominoes could fall Saturday just with that game,
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: and then the fourth domino up the road in ann
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: Arbor is We're sitting in this world where James Franklin,
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: who I assume we're about to talk about, was in
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: overtime with Oregon top five ranking sixteen days ago and
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: now he's out of a job, which shows you how
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: fast things can change in college football right now, so
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: I'm thinking about everybody. But since we were just talking
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: about Michigan, Michigan is a two lost team right now.
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: Yep.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: Okay, the Washington line opened at like five and a
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: half at home, not a lot of separation there. But
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: yet no one will be thinking on Monday or Tuesday
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: or Wednesday of this week really worried about Washington Michigan.
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: That's a Michigan thing. Only the rest of the college
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: football public's not thinking about that. Right If all of
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: a sudden, Washington pulls an upset and that just gets
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: sprung on America Saturday, the noise would be turned from
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: like three to seven on the Michigan staff. I like
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: those dudes, like I would prefer that not to happen,
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: but I would have preferred it not to happen to
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: James either. So I'm just saying, man, there are a
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: lot of conversations happening behind the scenes because that snowball
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: got kicked downhill with Penn State, and now the folks
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: at Auburn are talking, the folks at Florida are talking,
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: the folks at Michigan have been whispering a little bit.
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: I think it turns into an outright talk, not a scream,
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: but an not right talk if that happens Saturday.
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: The bummer about that is the Michigan Twitter world, the
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: social media world of Michigan is louder than ever about
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: that circumstance. And I think it's a you've got to
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: essentially went out to a hot state for the fan base.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: I don't know what goes on behind with everybody else,
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: but like for me, like as soon as the game
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: in text, sure on, hey man, keep your head up, yeah,
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: gotta keep it going, yeah, like the boys hopefully hopefully
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: everyone's healthy.
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I want to be very clear, So when we're
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: talking about this like, I think a lot of this
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: is insane. I thought it was crazy the way they
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: were talking about Ryan Day last year. I learned it
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: doesn't matter what I think, because I learned I'm not
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: making decisions in these athletic departments. And in some cases
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: boosters are, in other cases administrators are. So what I
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: learned to do is just echo the reality. The reality,
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: regardless of whether I like it or not, is there's
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: gonna be a ton of noise around him. But they
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: don't win Saturday, and if they don't keep on winning,
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: like I think eight and four puts them on very
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: thin ice with hot blades, and they're a two loss
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: team right now.
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: And here here's let's let's go down the world. Can
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: you actually pull up? What was I going to say
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: to pull up? I forget what it was you mentioned something. Anyway,
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: I started going down the avenue of like, okay, what's
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: our well, it's our recruiting class. Look like, what kind
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: of things do we need where we're top ten recruiting class? Yep,
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: you have a lot of key freshman sophomore guys that
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: are playing already that are showing a lot of like,
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: oh hey, we got some guys coming up. What happens
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: and you got Bryce Underwood, and you got Bryce Underwood.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: What happens if that staff isn't there next year?
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: Okay, remember this, So two things are happening. Firstly, Michigan
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: recruits itself. That's the first thing they're banking on. That
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: rather Yeah, that Michigan recruits itself. Guys are there for Michigan,
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: not for one coach, whether that's real or not. That's
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: what they're banking on. Number two, the rule just changed
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: in the NCAA. It was up until about five minutes ago.
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: If your coach gets fired, your entire roster can enter
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: the portal for the next thirty days and your class
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: falls apart and whatever. Now the rule for your roster
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: is you got to wait till the next coach is hired,
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: which may or may not be legal, but that's the
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: rule right now. So your roster's not going to immediately evaporate.
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: Number two, Michigan is very very well bankrolled, So I
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: think before they ever made a move, in a hypothetical
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: alternate universe where they made a coach move, I think
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: they would proactively make sure all their guys are locked
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: up and taking care of financially roster wise before they
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: ever touched the coaching staff. So I don't really see
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: this cataclysmic falling apart of the recruiting class falling a
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: part of the roster unless guys are just so loyal
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: to your current head coach. This goes for anyone unless
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: they're just so loyal that they want to make a statement, Yeah,
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: you fired my guy. That's why I was here. I'm out.
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: Some of that may happen with Penn State. I don't
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: know what's gonna happen with Penn State's roster.
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: You see the I think Penn State had like the
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: number two running back. Yeah, I thought that header kid
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: was the number one running back. Got you twenty twenty
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: seven running back? I think even before the game, he's like,
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: I'm not one hundred percent committed to Penn State anymore.
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: After James Frainer gets fired, he's now decommitted from Penn State.
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean there's a lot of things that happened,
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: just other than a head coach decides or a program
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: besides the firehead coach. All these kids are looking at
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: that and like, Okay, I want stability in my life.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: One thing you do like I didn't realize that's so
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: important when I was going to college. Is like, is
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: the head coach going to be there for all four years?
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: When you were there, I had to go through two coaches.
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: You were able to play your whole career with one coach.
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah. A lot of recruits are pretty I guess. Look,
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: I speak for myself, like I committed mainly to the
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: coaching staff. I feel like a lot of recruits basically
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: commit to the coaching staff. I know everybody says, like,
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: pick the school, pick the school, and that could be
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: great advice, but I feel like you just get caught
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: up in your relationships with the staff. You want them
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: to be there the whole time. So when somebody when
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: they leave, if they leave, make either lateral move or
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: get fired or whatever. I feel like that kind of
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: affects the roster. What do you see happening? We have
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: a tier talk here from Jared Ladd hashtag tear talk.
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: Where does Franklin go from here? Part of me seeing
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: like I've just been in the Nebraska world. But it's
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: happened at Auburn, it's happened at Florida. But when Nebraska
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: fired Polini because they're so fed up with nine ten
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: win seasons. Then you just see the decade downturn of
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: what Nebraska and the fans and the world has had
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: to go through since firing Bo Polini. Where do you
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: think think Franklin goes from here? What do you think
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: it means for Penn State? Do you think Penn State
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: is gonna hit when they get this next head coach,
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: whoever it may be.
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: If I were him, you wouldn't see me for either
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: you wouldn't see me for two years or I'd go
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: do TV. Because I've got a theory on this. Like
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: my theory is, I think when you're fired, if you're
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: fired as a head coach right now, James Franklin, for example,
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: very high profile coach. Okay, so been very successful up
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: until the last two weeks, basically been very successful. Dan
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: Mullen got fired at Florida. Dan Mullen did it right.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: Dan Mullen went and sat on TV for a few years,
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: and you're just a genius on TV. You get to
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: be the one who second guesses, You get to be
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: the one who doesn't have to make the call and
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: live with the consequences. You just get to commentate. You
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: get to do what we do all the time. All
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: coaches sound like geniuses on TV. All coaches stocks go
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: up on TV. Go sit on TV. You're making buyout
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: money anyway, they're gonna have to pay you fifty plus
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: million dollars. See your family go sit on a beach
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: every now and then. But also what you do privately,
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: behind the scenes, is you circulate sort of your James
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: Franklin two point zero plan, or here are the lessons
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: I learned, Here's why it went sideways at Penn State.
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: Here's how I'm going to acclimate to the new landscape
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: of college football. If you hire me, here's who i'd hire,
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: blah blah blah. Then you wait and you select the
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: on ramp back to coaching. That's what I would do.
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: I don't think he's going to do that. Everything I've
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: heard is he's looking to get right back into coaching,
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: like maybe the UCLA job for example.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: Maybe he looks at that, he says, taken.
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: That's actually true. Job looks okay, right, Yeah.
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: I think, well, yeah, I'll get that.
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: I'm confident. Look, if everybody else is on board with it,
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: is that.
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: A state college area code.
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: If the entire college football world's on board with it.
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: I'm good with UCLA just being two to zero and
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: they've just had they had they get to reset their
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: season with this interim head coach because they've been on
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: fire just these last two weeks.
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I get I can get on that. I think
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: you say it might have to be ranked now they're
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: undefeated team.
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they're undefeated right now with him, with him as
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: a head coach.
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: They are what I needed South Carolina to be. It's
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: BRIT's brewin Tober. It's not October right now, it's brewin Tober.
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: Then again, Oklahoma comes to town Saturday, so let's see
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: anyway money line.
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Oklahoma money line this week? Oh sorry, except for
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: lying them. Yeah, my fault, my fault, my fault.
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: It's interesting.
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: But also for Penn State fans celebrating this in such
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: a way, do you feel like.
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: I don't believe Greener? Yeah, I get it though.
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: That's where I sit there and think, like I had
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: a close friend of mine, Jeff d Low. He hits
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: me up. I think he's a Yes. I think he
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: sent me a clip of yours and was just talking
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: about like it being he's of the camp of happy
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: Franklin's out of there. It needed to happen. He fails
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: or as this is on the banner one and eighteen
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: against top what is it, top five, Top ten opponents
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: or AP opponents, And I'm sitting there message with him.
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: I'm like, hey, I feel you, bro, I promise you
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: I feel you. But the only experience I have is
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: same kind of thing, like a fan base is so
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: fed up with bo Polini. I was like, now, I
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: don't think you guys go out and higher, you know,
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: like an average coach, like we ended up going out
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: and getting Mike Ryleery that kind. I started the buy
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: and then we completely whipped on Scott Frost. I don't
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: think that'll happen because they have the resources, they have
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: the funds.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: There's got to be a.
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: Sure thing out there. It doesn't matter if you got
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: well billions of dollars is different, But it doesn't matter
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: whether you're well resourced. If you're paying fifty plus million
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: dollars to fire a guy or you're just getting rid
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: of them, even if you didn't have to pay the buyout,
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: although that's reality, so you're paying the buyout. There's got
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: to be a definitive upgrade right for you to be confident.
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: So I understand Penn State fan cinema. First off, you're
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: looking at Ohio State and you're saying to yourself, Man,
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: I invest emotionally like my buddy Mike does. I invest
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: financially like my buddy Mike, the season ticket holder at
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: Ohio State does. Why can't I get the results he gets?
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: Why can't we get the results they get? Why can't
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: we get the results Michigan's gotten. They've both won At
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: the end, it was Signetti yeah, and then he makes
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: a lot of people look bad because he's doing it
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: way quicker than everyone who's been there a long time.
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: But you're looking at it and you're saying, Okay, I
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: don't want to just be very good. I would rather
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: take my chances and jump into the fog and try
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: and grab the grate. But with the risk that we
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: fall into terrible I would just rather take that risk.
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: That's emotion thinking. That is not logic thinking. But I
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: understand it because you're not supposed to be logical as
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: a fan. You're not supposed to So I'm sitting on
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: the outside, I'm not emotional about it, and I'm trying
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: to be more logical. And I'm trying to say you
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: could do two things at once. You could admit we've
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: just been pretty good. We haven't been great. We want
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: to be great. He needs to make changes to be great. Okay,
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: that's hand a while hand B also says, man, there's
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: so much further you could fall and making this move
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: than room to climb. And so I look at that
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: proposition and I say, does it really make sense to
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: make the move? Does it really make sense to pull
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: the trigger and fire him, not put pressure on him,
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: fire him? And I thought the answer was no. I
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: thought it's insane. They got's thirty four and eight with
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: three double digit win seasons over the past three years.
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: He was I cannot stress this enough for people who
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: were mainly NFL and just kind of dabbling college. The
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: guy was in overtime against Oregon sixteen days ago with
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: a top five ranking next to his name and the
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: lead in the game. And he's out of a job now,
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: twelve years in to his tenure. And remember when he
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: took the job, they weren't that far removed from crippling
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: scandal Like Penn State had huge stains on their brand
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: that extended well beyond football publicly when you mentioned Penn State,
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: no one taught football. They talked other terrible stuff, And
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: James Franklin comes in and correct me if I'm wrong.
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: There hasn't been a whiff of scandal since he's been there.
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: So my thinking was just how does this guy not
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: have more equity built up than this?
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: How much?
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: How much very very good can you turn in before
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: people just get fed up with very good and in
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: pursuit of great take this kind of risk because this
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: is a huge risk. And like you said, Okay, if
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: you want to go and you want to upgrade, that's fine.
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: If there were a guaranteed upgrade out there, I would
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: support this move. James Franklin himself logically couldn't push back
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: on this move. If you told James, hey, so and
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: so is available, like Nick Sabe Kirby Smart, Kirby Smart's
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: available and he wants to come to Penn State, even
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: James Franklin would have to say, yeah, you guys got
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: to make this move. Favared my money, You got to
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: make this move. Kirby's not available, None of the top
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: coaches are available. So again we're not talking about Penn
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: State having been terrible. We're talking about them floating in
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: about the eight to fifteen range right over the past
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: few years. So to upgrade, you've either got to go
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: get one of the top eight coaches in the country,
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: none of whom are going to leave where they are
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: right now. Or you've got to have such a sure
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: fire candidate out there. Maybe it's a hot shot coordinator,
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: or maybe it's a coach that I don't know is
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: like re emerging on the landscape and you're gonna be
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: his final step. You're hiring for the next fifteen years.
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: I don't see that. Like, do you know, I'm a
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: huge Matt Campbell guy. I'd hire him tomorrow if I
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: had an opening. But even I'll admit, with Matt Campbell,
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: that's not such a sure slam. I'm dunk that I'm
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: gonna fire James Franklin and pay him fifty million dollars
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: not to work here anymore, because I think Matt Campbell
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: may work out there. Like Matt Campbell's a ball coach,
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: and I get tout him until the sun goes down today,
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: and I think he would be a home run higher
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: for whoever had a job opening, because he's done great
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: things at a historically terrible program at Iowa State. I
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: don't know that I'm paying fifty million dollars to get
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: the other guy out of the seat just to find
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: out though. That's where my head's out.
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you gotta you have to know, Okay, we're getting
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: we're making this big of a move in sixteen days.
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: They have to know on their head, we know who
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: are next guys? And that text mess just going out
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: that burner phone has come out and be like, hey,
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: what do you think? Yeah, I would make that move.
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: Do you think they know who their target is or
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: who their guy is? Like, you're very connected in the
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: college football world and what you've seen because you watch Listen.
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: We'll be watching Thursday night football and I see you
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: tweeting about some game that's happening in college football.
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: Not some game. It's Miami Ohio Toledo.
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: That's an instinct rivalry game. So he coaches coordinators up
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: and comers, like, what is this list looking like for
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: Penn State? Like what are coaches that are you know,
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: for any of the jobs that might be opening up.
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: Before you answer that question, CBS had a whole report
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: on this. Have you seen that CBS report those are
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: your friends.
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: I can't remember which report it was.
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: Maybe it was about who the next head coaches. They said,
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: and I quote, it starts here and it finishes here.
• 30:25
  Speaker 3: I saw that one. I saw that one. You're talking
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: about my boy, You're talking about my second father.
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: I think I think the odds came out too, and
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: your boy is the number one front runner right here.
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: Hang on to your talk. Need Josh Bake to whisper
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: in my ear that rule won't go to Penn State.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: If you're talking, turbulence is happening. The flight attendants looking
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: at us that she's not good right now, Hey, having
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: a conversation. We're having a conversation.
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: Doors shut, bust, door shut. I'm looking at you, okay.
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: I know, and you know, and you know that I
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: know that you know that that's your burner. I know that,
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: and I know that you want me to put your
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: mind at ease.
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: And you know.
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: I think it would be terrible if Matt left Nebraska
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: to go to Penn State. I think the CBS report
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: is right that that's their target because I think Pat
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: Craft and Matt rule. I mean, if you and I
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: vacation together and I'm the ad somewhere, and I think
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: that the job that I have control love is superior
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: to the job you have. Yeah, I'm going to offer
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: you the job. That's not the question. The question is
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: not is that their target? Because I think that may
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: be their target. The question is going to be is
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: he willing to leave? That's going to be the question. Yeah, yes,
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: he's gonna be willing to leave.
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: No, no, no, I'm I'm saying I understand. I understand
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: what you're saying. I think the rumors are very real.
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: I think the pressure will be at an all time high,
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: and I think it just comes down to what's in
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: coach rules, brain and heart.
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: I'm not trying to say he's not leaving. I hope
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: that these that these rumors aren't true, that they're not targeting.
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: I think all of that is very real. I just
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: I don't know what is in his heart, mind and
• 32:01
  Speaker 3: soul because I know he was a walk on there.
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: I know he's an East Coast guy. I know he's
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: got you know, ties, their family, ties, friends, everything like
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: Penn State. When he came and took the Nebraska job,
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: You've kind of understood a little bit of this. Now
• 32:14
  Speaker 3: I'm understanding more of it. So I don't know what's
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: going on in his brain, but I do know that
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: in my opinion, he's grown and as he's been there.
• 32:26
  Speaker 3: He's on his third year now. He absolutely loves Nebraska.
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: His wife, his family loves Nebraska. He moved his family,
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: He moved some of his family over to Lincoln, Nebraska.
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: His wife has a business in Nebraska, his son is
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: a sophomore at unl At Nebraska, you get everything you
• 32:41
  Speaker 3: want at Nebraska, money, resources, facilities, you got recruiting classes.
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: He's got a lot of things set up to where
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: it's like you have some business that not only finished,
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: but you can be a legacy guy at the University
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: of Nebraska. I'm not talking anybody in particular, but we
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: got a lot of good shit happening in Lincoln to
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: where I just I think that as real as him
• 33:07
  Speaker 3: and him being boys with the A D. But he's
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: also very much great friends boys with the ad Troy
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: Dana and at Nebraska. I think that this is now
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: he's got emotional ties year and this is a program
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: that he legitimately wants to build and win championships with.
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: Do you know who Greg Madison is?
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: I know who Greg maddox Is.
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: Was yeah, both white moles. He was a defensive cornator.
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: I think he was with the Ravens for a little
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: bit and then it came to the University of Michigan.
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: He loved Michigan. He loved an arbor. His wife, kids, family,
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: everyone moved there. They started themselves a little shop and
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: on Main Street called Rock paper Scissors. It was like
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: a cute trinket store. Right holiday season. What could take place?
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: You go over there, get some fun ornaments for trees.
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: Spootoba would take place. You have a whole bunch of
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: stuff to kind of make your house a little more festive.
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: A year after I left, he went to Ohio State
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: because he had ties at Ohio State, and.
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: He's on record saying it's the worst decision of his life.
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: He didn't say that.
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: Rock paper Scissors is still there and it's actually functioning
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: very well. When I told my daughter to a game
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: last year, it's just as cute as it was before.
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: Okay, where's the thing.
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: Listen, listen to me.
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: Here's the thing. He opened Rock paper Scissors and that's great.
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: His wife opened paper Scisors.
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: Matt Rules started a whole brand. He's got a whole podcast.
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: I got you, Hey, show me that we talked with
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: his last week. Show me the brand of that podcast.
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: Where's the end?
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: Okay, that's just trademarking stuff, you know.
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: That's just you can't get a trademark from the school
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: you go to, you coach for it.
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: Maybe that's in the reasons house.
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: Rules, house rules? Can he easily go to blue and white?
• 34:44
  Speaker 3: All?
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: I'm asking you, and you and Matt Rule.
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: I'm just playing devil's advocate. I want him to stay
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: in the braswer because.
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: You think it would be terrible for college football if.
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: He left, I thin'd be awful for college football.
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: Do I You got to ask yourself this. And this
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: goes for someone who is working a job right now
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: that has nothing to do with football, that just may
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: be watching this. Are you happy when you wake up
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: in the morning and go to work. Most people's answer
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: is no. If Matt Rule's answer is yes, you've got
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: your answer. You don't leave happy. You don't try and
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: get happier than happy. And you've been around him a ton.
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: I've been around him a little bit. Unless he's totally
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: faking it, he seems happy at Nebraska, and if he's
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: happy at Nebraska, then the best thing he can do
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: right now, The best thing Troy Danny can do right
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: now is to make sure you understand, okay, to keep
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: this guy because he's in demand, which is a good thing.
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: By the way, if your guy's not in demand, he sucks.
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: The best thing we can do is make sure we
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: squeeze the sponge as hard as we can to drip
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: every ounce of resource out of the sponge that is Nebraska,
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: because that's what it's going to take to keep any
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: quality candidate at home. And that's what you do right now.
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: On doing right there, And it ain't looks we got
• 35:46
  Speaker 3: the facilities something right there. If it's a little extra
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: paid as Holgerson, he ain't take though he gets paid
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: overnight like he's he's made a shitload of money. Now,
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: it's how do you put position this thing? They put
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: it all in. They like getting more players, more talent.
• 36:03
  Speaker 3: Maybe that's it. But I think he stays in Nebraska.
• 36:07
  Speaker 3: But I am aware that this all this rule talk
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: to Penn State is very real.
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: But use the term, use the term happy, and it's
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: a point I think we can choice the word where
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: we talk about where Penn State is located at.
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but one of the hardest things, hardest things to
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: do for successful people is to get the goalpost to
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: stop moving. I think he's in an incredible spot. I
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: think he wakes up very happy coaching the Nebraska Cornhuskers.
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: What are you laughing about?
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: You just your operation? Because literally, here's here's about it, bro,
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: I don't know, hold on, think about this. I'm sitting
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: on this show with my best friend and my second
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: best friend right now, and we're here talking ball. We're
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: talking ball, and I know my job at this point
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: on the show is strictly to push your buttons. Because
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: if it was if it was true, serum was on me.
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: I bet. I really hope Matt Rule doesn't leave. I
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: want to stay at Nebraska, and I'm watching my boy
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: just reach and pick and try to grab anything you
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: can't because all you're saying is right, yeah, put a
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: billion dollar contract in front of them and say you happy,
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: We'll bring anything you want. I just know that the
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: CBS report. You look at the odds, he's number He's
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: number one, and I last week you and I talked
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: about this, like, is Matt Rule gonna go to Penn State?
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: Is shut it down?
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: Is that a possibility? You shut it down? And like,
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: I just thought, Oh, that's that's an interesting thought process.
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: The minute James Franklin was fired, the Matt Rule headline
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: started and it was bigger than I ever could have imagined.
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: So I am as your best friend. I am afraid
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: for you right now. I'm nervous because where do we
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: go from here if we lose Matt. I know them
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: boys in Nebraska hate my guts because, like, how could
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: you go for Michigan when you were at our spring
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: game and say there might be that's one of the
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: end stands for knowledge. I went to Michigan. So I'm
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: obviously going to go against you guys, but I still
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: love and support you. Guys.
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: What happened.
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: Let let's play a hypothetical game, and I'm just gonna
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: look at you right now. If that Rule takes the
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: job at Penn State, where does Nebraska go from there?
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: Who do they go get?
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: You open up the wall for anybody.
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: That's that's the problem, though, is you can't just open
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: up the wall for anybody. You have to go find
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: the right guy and open the wall for that right guy.
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna speak for both of us. Here's the answer.
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: If an asteroid drops on your house while you're asleep tonight,
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: what are you going to do tomorrow?
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: Nothing because you're dead.
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: I don't know what Nebraska would do because I'm not
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: allowing my mind to go there because it's not it's
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: not gonna happen. Okay, But the answer is I would go,
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: like get Alex Golish, I would go get one of
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: these coordinators. Just's begging for a shot. Because you want
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: to talk about legacy, talk about appreciation. And again this
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: is hypothetical.
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: Alma Mater. We gotta make sure.
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: That is actually.
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: We gotta look up wherever that is.
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: And I don't know, I don't know why. Like again,
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: I feel very confident with what we've built over the
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: last asteroids not dropping on us. Yeah, Mike Eckler in
• 38:57
  Speaker 3: that Special Teams unit is sitting at the top of
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: the right now. Nebraska, we play a tough Minnesota team
• 39:03
  Speaker 3: this weekond could be the first time we win six games.
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: Whatever, Ryan, you're happy, You're happy in Columbia, NFL, will
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: is Ohio State.
• 39:21
  Speaker 3: Why do they keep doing this to Ryan?
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: Day's not going anywhere. That's good news, that's good unless
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: a Penn State situation happens, that.
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: Fan base would never turn on him, that would never.
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: Take last year. They were like old Boston, House State
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: or Michigan.
• 39:33
  Speaker 3: All good, Nebraska, buddy.
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: You always knew that's exactly where this would go.
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: We spent three minutes on Penn State.
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: Maybe three minutes.
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we knew this is where it was gonna go.
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: To get back to the A, to get back to
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: the original question. I know we made it about the Husky,
• 39:55
  Speaker 3: But who are these Who do you think these coaches
• 39:58
  Speaker 3: are that will be on these short lists when these
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: you know programs, because I'm sure we are pretty sure
• 40:03
  Speaker 3: that there will be more jobs open than just Penn State.
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, man, who are these coaches that you.
• 40:07
  Speaker 3: Think will be making some big moves in the offseason.
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: I think that Matt Campbell is I'm going to go
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: back to him. I mean I might as well be
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: his agent, Like that's how much I believe in him.
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: So Matt Campbell at Iowa State would be my call.
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: Rule's gonna get mentioned with Penn State until the job
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: gets filled. I also think John summer All at Tulane
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: has been ready. I think he's smart enough to wait
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: for the right job to open, probably an SEC job.
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: I think a couple at least of SEC jobs will
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: come open. Alex Golis like we just mentioned at South Florida,
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: Like both of those guys in a previous life would
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: have already left, They would have taken a smaller job.
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: Those guys can just afford to wait for a bigger job. Remember,
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: Arkansas is open right now. Remember Oklahoma State is open
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: right now.
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: So Stanford, UCLA, Virginia Tech, Oklahoma State, pennstake.
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: Like, I got no clue what you do if you're
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: Virginia Tech, I have no clue what you do your route. Ironically,
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: I don't think James is gonna take Pence or of
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: Virginia Tech. But your route may be to hire a
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: guy who's already making buyout money so that you don't
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: have to break the bank for him, because there's no
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: bank to break there.
• 41:10
  Speaker 3: Fun thoughts. Fun thought with some coaching experience, do you
• 41:15
  Speaker 3: look at somebody like from your alma mater, D'Angelo Hall.
• 41:20
  Speaker 3: D Hall has been in the NFL game. Yeah, well
• 41:23
  Speaker 3: my coaching right now, right, and you see d Jack,
• 41:26
  Speaker 3: You see some of these moves as far as like
• 41:28
  Speaker 3: Eddie could be a thought.
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: If you're going for these programs, I think there needs
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: to be a higher sample size before you start going
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: giving a d Angel Hall a Nebraska job or a
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: Penn State job.
• 41:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and look that's more speculation, like it. But if
• 41:46
  Speaker 3: Dangel Hall was somebody that like wanted to coach at
• 41:49
  Speaker 3: Virginia Tech, that could very much be like a thought,
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: depending if he sits down in the right rooms interviews,
• 41:55
  Speaker 3: well and everything else, and if he's dying for a
• 41:58
  Speaker 3: Virginia Tech job at a legend in not only Virginia
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: Tech but also the NFL, that could bring a lot awareness, excitement, branding,
• 42:05
  Speaker 3: because Virginia Tech has been in a hole for a
• 42:07
  Speaker 3: long time, since since like the two thousands, that first
• 42:10
  Speaker 3: decade in the two thousands.
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: Staying on the coaching and you brought up Tulane SEC.
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: We know that Hugh Freeze is probably on the hot seat.
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: Little bit. We've talked about billion Naper.
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: All Saturday is a big game for Hugh Freeze. He
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: can play Missouri. It's all caps. Do you understand what
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: I'm telling you?
• 42:25
  Speaker 3: Fully picking up with Big Saturday on.
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: The planes for Hugh Freeze?
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: If okay, those two we know billionnap here and Hugh Freeze.
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: What about Brett Venables? Is there any noise there? You
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: lose a Texas at the Red Way the way you
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: do if sorry shootout, if my tears thumb doesn't get better,
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: and they go through this sec process where it was
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: kind of a hot seat situation before the season started.
• 42:50
  Speaker 3: Before the game.
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: Cocks, Let's say they lose to the Cocks. What's the
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: rest of Oklahoma schedule. Let's just say it.
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: Let's just say it all ranked teams.
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: Okay, so they're they're in they're in a cock Mo
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: November type of situation. Soon members, let's just call it
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: a tough schedule. Yeah, let's yeah, it's tough schedule. Let's
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: say it doesn't go the way they want. Is Brett
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: Vennables who was on who was kind of on this
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: like theoretical hot seaton before the season started. Is that
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: a situation where there's a vacant job at Oklahoma?
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Okay, yeah, that's another one.
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: I could have took way less time to a second.
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: It's another one that's not on the radar yet because
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: they started the season hot, right, you're looking at I'm
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: just I'm trying. I've tried to tell you guys, like
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: two weeks ago, I've been alluding to this the reason
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: that schedule. So that's the reason it's going.
• 43:33
  Speaker 3: To South Carolina, oh, miss Tennessee, Alabama, Missouri and finished
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: with LSU.
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: That you got a good season going eight and four there.
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: If you go eight and four against that, that's a
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: good season. Here's the problem, something called the recalibration of expectation,
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: a theory I have not presented on the show yet,
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: has happened with Oklahoma. If Oklahoma lost to Michigan in
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: Week two, people would have never recalibrated their mentality to
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: think Oklahoma be a contender because they would have had
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: a loss already.
• 44:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: But the problem for Oklahoma, ironically, is they beat Michigan.
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: So people forgot their preseason expectations and they recalibrated on
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: the fly, and all of a sudden, Oklahoma became a contender. Well,
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: then John Mattier got his hand hurt, and then they
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: lost to Texas, and now people aren't thinking eight and
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: four is okay. Now people are thinking eight and four
• 44:19
  Speaker 2: given what my recalibrated expectations were, would be a disaster.
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: We need to get rid of him. Now you may
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: think that's crazy or not. Again, I think it's crazy.
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: James Franklin just lost his job, but it doesn't make
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: him any less unemployed this morning than he is. Yes,
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: I do think Oklahoma they believe they've got the entire
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: infrastructure in place, which they do, by the way, and
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: they believe if there's only one shortcoming, if there's only
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: one faulty wire here, and it happens to be the
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: head coach, that's a plug and play, and that would
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: be a very desirable job. And they're right about that.
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: And I've talked to some coaches about that. And now
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: Oklahoma's looked at a little bit differently in the SEC,
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: Like Oklahoma is the program that has this overlap of
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: rougher around the edges, blue collar roll up your sleeves
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: mentality that some coaches love, but it overlaps with that
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: SEC money and other places aren't like that. Like other places,
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: they're rich and they know it. Oklahoma's rich, but you
• 45:12
  Speaker 2: can tell their first generation rich like they still wear jeans,
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: they still tuck the T shirt in, there's no belt on.
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: There's stains on the jeans too, so you know they've
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: been out working in the back before they come in
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: for dinner. That's kind of how Oklahoma is. So I
• 45:24
  Speaker 2: say all that to say yes to that, and then
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: there's a big question on screen up there, if you
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: want to ask me that question, because I got an
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: answer for that one too.
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: Is Mike novel safe?
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: I got no idea because they'd have to pay him
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: sixty million because when the Alabama job came open, Jimmy
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: Sexton fleeced FSU and got them to sign a renegotiated
• 45:43
  Speaker 2: deal that puts Mike at about I think fifty nine
• 45:46
  Speaker 2: and change million in buyout money if they were to
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: fire him this year. Now here's the plus side. He
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: did take a one year reduced salary, so you only
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: have to pay him six and change this year, and
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: then he goes right back to ten. I think they
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: have eight conference games in a row in a god
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: awful acc They can't get up for any games except Alabama.
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: They got up for them this year. They're they're not
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: built like there is no future there because they've just
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: relied on the portal, so they haven't recruited anything. So
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: even though it's bad this year, normally it's bad, but
• 46:17
  Speaker 2: maybe you look ahead and say Okay, when our young
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: guys become juniors will be good. They don't have that there, right, So.
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: With three twenty three transfers going into the year, yep, yeah,
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: that's that's uh going on coaches that might go to
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: bigger and better jobs, possibly Texas Tech. McGuire, Is he
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: a possibility out of Penn State in the hypothetical world
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: to Nebraska?
• 46:39
  Speaker 3: A hypothetically hypothetically in Oklahoma? Uh, Michigan.
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't leave there if I were.
• 46:46
  Speaker 3: Hold on, there's a hypothetical world, there's a there's a
• 46:49
  Speaker 3: more I think, a more hypothetical world with Michigan than Nebraska.
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: Wait a second, so on the on the hypothetical tree,
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: I mean.
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: With you hypothetical, you're like more. I'm like, I'm seeing
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: odds that it's the search starts and ends with matt
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: rule and you're like, hypothetically.
• 47:09
  Speaker 3: We'll see who's laughing at the end of the season.
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: He took the knife out of Penn State's hands and
• 47:15
  Speaker 2: gave it to you, and you put it in A.
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: Tailor is oldest time. A tailor's oldest time on this bus, Hey,
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: you know what we need to do? O Son is
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: at Nebraska that's good.
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: That's that's news to me.
• 47:27
  Speaker 3: Actually that is that. Yeah, yeah, no, that's real. He's
• 47:30
  Speaker 3: on his staff, he's on coach real staff.
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: Things might be up in Nebraska, hypothetically. Hypothetically, we've already
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: gone through a coaching change and everything.
• 47:42
  Speaker 3: I just went to Equalizer with Denzel where he takes
• 47:44
  Speaker 3: the gun and points it back at him.
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking to myself, we're having fun.
• 47:48
  Speaker 3: We're having a good time out of here.
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: Listen, do you think you shouldn't leave? Okay, I want
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: to take you guys out there. I don't know that
• 47:58
  Speaker 2: business regularly takes either of you through Lubbock, Texas.
• 48:01
  Speaker 3: I just I just don't think you.
• 48:02
  Speaker 2: Guys regularly like travel through that part of Texas, So
• 48:05
  Speaker 2: it would have to be a one off. Their facilities
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: are off the charts, insane. They've got unbelievable money out there.
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: Cody Campbell, all those commercials he's doing, like, that's the
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: same guy that bank rolls Texas Tech. He is tied
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: into Texas. Joey was a high school coach for like
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: thirty years. Here's been a coach in Texas for thirty years.
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: Most of those were Texas high school. So He's kind
• 48:26
  Speaker 2: of just uniquely woven into the Texas culture. And so
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: the jobs I think he would leave Texas Tech for
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: were if the Texas job or the A and M
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: job ever came open and they all stayed in the state. Yeah, Like,
• 48:37
  Speaker 2: I just think he fits there. I think he'd be
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: a total fish out of water at Nebraska or a
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: Penn State or whatever. Maybe Oklahoma fits just a small
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: little Maybe Oklahoma fits you talking about.
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: The blue collar but we got money the whole thing. Yeah, Texas,
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: Texas Tech.
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: Texas Tech's awesome right now.
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: They seem like true contenders. Yeah, we could actually see
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: them playing in the national championship. Yeah, them in Indiana both. Yeah,
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: you can't see through them right now, you really can't.
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: Kurt signetty buddy, I love him. I think he is hilarious.
• 49:09
  Speaker 3: His name is coming up basically any potential job that
• 49:12
  Speaker 3: could be happening. Yeah, so what do you see with Signetti?
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: It makes sense that his name would come up, Like
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: if I were Penn State, I was talking about Matt
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: Campbell so much. I got to tell you because I
• 49:21
  Speaker 2: left out some context, I would call Signety before I
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: call anybody. I don't get the feeling Kurt Signetti's just
• 49:29
  Speaker 2: in a hurry to leave Indiana for Penn State. People
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: don't realize how much money he makes there. He's making
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: as much at Indiana with his renewed contract as James
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: was making at Penn State. So you're already matching the dollars.
• 49:40
  Speaker 2: You've got way less pressure on you. You are now
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: and as long as you want to be the face
• 49:44
  Speaker 2: of Indiana football, there was no before you. Right, there
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: is no shadows? Are you are Indiana football? And also,
• 49:53
  Speaker 2: do we just know that he is dying to go
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: to state college Pennsylvania. I don't know that I've actually
• 49:57
  Speaker 2: heard the opposite. Now, maybe have some other jobs can open,
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: maybe he entertains that, But.
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: What other jobs are he entertained?
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean, we just got the news that Michigan
• 50:05
  Speaker 2: is gonna come open, Like Michigan is highly likely to
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: come I would look at uh. I'm just saying, do you.
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: Think Signetty would want to go to Michigan?
• 50:14
  Speaker 2: D yes, Yes, the Michigan job is Michigan. You're down.
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: No way he could be sitting in this chair less
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: than a year from now. Yeah, welcome to Michigan.
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: Right, No, Swan Moore is he's woven in the fabric
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: and national championship coach. Mean, he was the head coach
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: during Penn State, during Maryland, which I said in the
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: championship year was gonna be the hardest game Ohio State,
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: Like he was a part of those.
• 50:45
  Speaker 3: I wish he was on the sideline in Nebraska. That's it.
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: That hurt people, hurt people.
• 50:50
  Speaker 3: So I do have a question what we just saw
• 50:52
  Speaker 3: with the Penn State and James Franklin, like the whole
• 50:55
  Speaker 3: very very good these years. Obviously he didn't win a
• 50:58
  Speaker 3: championship there. But Dabo Sweeney, could there be any movement
• 51:01
  Speaker 3: with Clemson if they were to drop you know, just
• 51:06
  Speaker 3: another real if you're going to lose a couple more games.
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: But if they lose another bad game, Like what are
• 51:13
  Speaker 3: there conversations happening at Clemson?
• 51:16
  Speaker 2: Not that I know of. That one would be off
• 51:18
  Speaker 2: the radar, out of left field to me. I know
• 51:21
  Speaker 2: when you say conversations, I know what you mean. There
• 51:23
  Speaker 2: are absolutely conversations of hey, what's our future going to be?
• 51:27
  Speaker 2: But not conversations of hey, we got a meeting tomorrow
• 51:29
  Speaker 2: morning ten am. We're about to discuss immediate termination of
• 51:33
  Speaker 2: our head coach. No, I don't think those conversations are
• 51:35
  Speaker 2: happening like North Carolina though with Belichick.
• 51:38
  Speaker 3: That's that's But you got to think about.
• 51:41
  Speaker 2: How many jobs we're stacking on top of each other
• 51:43
  Speaker 2: right now. At some point you got to look at
• 51:45
  Speaker 2: the coaching market and say, might we just wait a year?
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: Do we really want to compete against all of these
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: other programs that are coming open.
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: JP had a great take on this. When who they
• 51:54
  Speaker 1: lose to We're Clemson, they lost to it, and this
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: is when Dabo's kind of have to crash out the podium.
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: Maybe George Yah, it's probably Georgia Tech. And JP was like,
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: Clemson's got to remember who they were before debo because
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: they were nothing right they were. It was a it
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: was a bad program. It's been too long, too long.
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: And then like you lose.
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: Dabbo, who is, like you say, woven in the fabric
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: of a culture, like he is Clemson. You gotta keep
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: him there, let him die there.
• 52:20
  Speaker 4: Brian Kelly will be gone by.
• 52:23
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: JP just said Brian Kelly will be gone by the interview.
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: Every coach besides who Brian days together?
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: Guys who will keep their Yeah, that's what it's turning
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: into we can't finish the sheet.
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: The Brian Kelly thing, that's another one too, is they
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: win that first game against Clemson. The recalibration you're kind
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: of talking about is like, oh ship, we're we're That's
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: all we needed was when the first get Yeah, we
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: want to see an opener. And now it's like, yeah
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: it is. Brian Kelly.
• 52:51
  Speaker 3: Is he safe?
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: Because I know there was like a whole lot of
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: oil and water type of mixture when it came to
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: l s U, Baton Rouge and Brian Kelly's personality.
• 53:00
  Speaker 3: So right now he's winning, Yeah, wells winning.
• 53:03
  Speaker 2: He's another guy who's got this not quite Oklahoma stretch
• 53:07
  Speaker 2: in the second half of the season. But he's got
• 53:09
  Speaker 2: a tough stretch now. I will say, is we're sitting
• 53:11
  Speaker 2: here talking, it's the Monday following the South Carolina game.
• 53:15
  Speaker 2: They only would they score JP twenty? Yeah, yeah, they
• 53:17
  Speaker 2: only scored twenty the other night two red zone turnovers.
• 53:20
  Speaker 2: I actually thought their offense showed more promise than I've
• 53:23
  Speaker 2: seen at any point this year. Doesn't really matter if
• 53:25
  Speaker 2: it doesn't click. That is one of two places LSU
• 53:29
  Speaker 2: and Oklahoma where neither guy's on an immediate hot seat,
• 53:33
  Speaker 2: and I'm not saying they are. Those are two places that,
• 53:35
  Speaker 2: because of the schedules they're about to play, could turn
• 53:38
  Speaker 2: on a dime down the stretch. Hot seat talk could
• 53:41
  Speaker 2: crank up immediately. And those are two places that view
• 53:45
  Speaker 2: themselves rightfully so as organizations that are built very strongly.
• 53:49
  Speaker 2: And if all you had to do was remove the
• 53:51
  Speaker 2: star above the Christmas tree and put a brighter star
• 53:54
  Speaker 2: on top of it would be a very desirable tree
• 53:56
  Speaker 2: to be placed on top of.
• 53:59
  Speaker 3: I love that.
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: It's really technical terminology. I'm sorry if I lost you there.
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I followed. It took me a second, but I
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: got there. You want to be an upright star on
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: a nice tree.
• 54:06
  Speaker 2: You don't want to go have to find a new
• 54:08
  Speaker 2: tree in the woods.
• 54:08
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: The tree's nice, it's decorated, we got the tensil. We
• 54:11
  Speaker 2: got real popcorn. It's not even the fake popcorn.
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: Every year in my house, it's a it's a headache
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: every year.
• 54:15
  Speaker 2: And do it at LSU and Oklahoma.
• 54:17
  Speaker 3: Watching ball, Dude, I I love how college football is
• 54:21
  Speaker 3: such a roller coaster because this is the most fun
• 54:23
  Speaker 3: year for you. Yeah, I think these are like one
• 54:25
  Speaker 3: of the This is like one of the best years
• 54:27
  Speaker 3: in college because anybody, it feels like, can be anybody
• 54:31
  Speaker 3: just up in the air.
• 54:31
  Speaker 2: One more thing I was talking to like fifty agents yesterday,
• 54:35
  Speaker 2: and one thing they kept saying is something that's right
• 54:38
  Speaker 2: in front of your face and you're not realizing it
• 54:40
  Speaker 2: that we're having to deal with right now, is we
• 54:42
  Speaker 2: have been used to forever. Towards the end of the season,
• 54:45
  Speaker 2: guys get fired and then coaching searches start to happen
• 54:48
  Speaker 2: behind the scenes, but it's always it's never going to
• 54:51
  Speaker 2: be public or finalized until the end of the year,
• 54:53
  Speaker 2: all right, So if you don't make a bowl game,
• 54:55
  Speaker 2: it happens early December. And if you're going to a
• 54:58
  Speaker 2: bowl or if maybe if you're going to play all
• 55:00
  Speaker 2: for national championship, you agree if you're a coordinator. Kirby
• 55:03
  Speaker 2: Smart once stayed with Alabama through the national title game
• 55:07
  Speaker 2: even though he had taken the Georgia job. That was
• 55:09
  Speaker 2: the old school way of doing things. But no one
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: used to fire guys in October. Now everyone's getting fired
• 55:14
  Speaker 2: in October. And these agents were talking to me yesterday
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: and they were saying, you know, we're not hearing from
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: these universities. They want to wait to the end of
• 55:22
  Speaker 2: the season. They want to do the search now to
• 55:25
  Speaker 2: walk that through to a conclusion. What that means is theoretically,
• 55:29
  Speaker 2: if Penn State were to try and go get Signetti
• 55:31
  Speaker 2: or go get Matt Campbell, or go get someone else,
• 55:35
  Speaker 2: they want it to happen during the season. I don't
• 55:39
  Speaker 2: even understand how that functions.
• 55:40
  Speaker 1: Yes, so they went and got Matt Campbell, will use
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: his name. Would they say, Okay, we've hired Matt. Gets
• 55:46
  Speaker 1: November fifth, Matt Campbell's the next head coach of Penn State.
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: And then at Campbell just goes to Penn State I
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: think coach at Iowa State for the rest of the
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: I think he coaches.
• 55:55
  Speaker 3: Like say they're playing, say they're in the Costable Playoff,
• 55:58
  Speaker 3: like he coaches through or maybe who knows, but he's
• 56:01
  Speaker 3: finishing out the year. But it would probably work the
• 56:03
  Speaker 3: same fashion it would like the NFL to where somebody
• 56:06
  Speaker 3: might somebody's gonna leak it. It's not gonna be the
• 56:09
  Speaker 3: team coming out saying this is gonna be our next
• 56:11
  Speaker 3: head coach. Because to your point, what's probably going to
• 56:14
  Speaker 3: start happening is these coaches, these staves are going to
• 56:17
  Speaker 3: be interviewing during the season right over zoom. Uh, you know,
• 56:22
  Speaker 3: on the phone face not They won't be flying and
• 56:24
  Speaker 3: going face to face unless because that right there again,
• 56:27
  Speaker 3: you're gonna you're gonna that's gonna get leaked. It's all
• 56:29
  Speaker 3: gonna get leaked. But staves are, like head coaches are
• 56:32
  Speaker 3: going to be interviewing on the phone on zoom during
• 56:35
  Speaker 3: the season.
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: Not just head coaches, but like coordinators as well. Yeah,
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: who's the OC from Missouri? Yeah, it's it's all good.
• 56:43
  Speaker 1: We can forget his name of a second, Are there
• 56:45
  Speaker 1: he already interviewed for the Arkansas.
• 56:47
  Speaker 3: Job middle Yeah, yeah, yeah, there you go. But are
• 56:51
  Speaker 3: you do you Are you hearing about any coordinators in
• 56:53
  Speaker 3: the college football circuit that could be potential hot names?
• 56:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Kirby Moore is Na. Yeah, tons of them. But
• 57:01
  Speaker 2: I don't I think it all works downstream of which
• 57:03
  Speaker 2: head coaches leave and which head coaches are available. Yeah,
• 57:06
  Speaker 2: there are a lot of places where if you look
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: number three or number four in their list, it's a coordinator.
• 57:10
  Speaker 2: But that's contingent on the first three names, which your
• 57:12
  Speaker 2: head coach is not being available, So it's and then
• 57:15
  Speaker 2: what normally happens in this kind of cycle, is okay.
• 57:19
  Speaker 2: Current head coaches climb up the ladder and fill the openings,
• 57:23
  Speaker 2: and then those jobs like the if the Indiana job
• 57:25
  Speaker 2: were open, if the Iowa State job were open, if
• 57:28
  Speaker 2: some other job were open, those are the places that
• 57:31
  Speaker 2: look at a coordinator. Historically, that's what happens. If John
• 57:35
  Speaker 2: Summer All were to take the Auburn job, if it opened,
• 57:39
  Speaker 2: two Lane looks at a high profile coordinator. That's probably
• 57:42
  Speaker 2: the way that goes.
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, uh, I want to I know we kind of
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: brushed over it a little bit. We talked about UCLA
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: being two and o and they should be two and
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: o at this point we should all just we should
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: erase everything from the prior head coach. But I remember
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: a conversation you had a con coward. I clicked on
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: the link and I will listen to you guys talk
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: about UCLA and how bad of a job at is.
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: Your stadium's forty five minutes right from the campus. You're
• 58:03
  Speaker 1: the second best recruiting team in the city essentially, and
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: now all of a sudden there're two to zero. Who's
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: the h is it?
• 58:11
  Speaker 2: Tim Skippers the head coach? No, No, No, who's the
• 58:13
  Speaker 2: OC Jerry Newheisel.
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: Is that Jerry Yeah?
• 58:16
  Speaker 4: Team?
• 58:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Jerry Neuheisel is the face of the team.
• 58:19
  Speaker 2: Is that now?
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: Having that conversation, we'll call on Coward. Is that now
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: a job? That's like, yeah, new Heeidel seems like he's
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: the perfect man for that job.
• 58:27
  Speaker 2: If I were them, I would probably go that route.
• 58:29
  Speaker 2: I don't know the UCLA jobs intimately, Like I've had
• 58:33
  Speaker 2: more conversations about the UCLA job over the past month
• 58:35
  Speaker 2: than I've had my whole life. Very eye opening, and
• 58:38
  Speaker 2: what it shows is apathy towards the football program. They
• 58:41
  Speaker 2: don't have their nil affairs in order, they don't take
• 58:44
  Speaker 2: it nearly as seriously as basketball, and they love to
• 58:47
  Speaker 2: tout how rich their alumni base is, but it doesn't
• 58:50
  Speaker 2: matter if football can't tap into it. Frankly, Arkansas has
• 58:52
  Speaker 2: had some of those problems recently. Really a ton of
• 58:54
  Speaker 2: money in Northwest Arkansas. It doesn't matter if the needle
• 58:58
  Speaker 2: doesn't go into football, how much money you have. And then,
• 59:02
  Speaker 2: at least at Arkansas you know everyone cares. At UCLA
• 59:05
  Speaker 2: you have the added burden of trying to make people
• 59:07
  Speaker 2: care about football, which is a very unenviable position to
• 59:10
  Speaker 2: be in. Like, if you're trying to make people care
• 59:12
  Speaker 2: about football in a country that's football obsessed, you're probably
• 59:15
  Speaker 2: just in the wrong part of the country, or in
• 59:17
  Speaker 2: that case, in the wrong part of town. Even Riley
• 59:19
  Speaker 2: struggled with that at USC though they packed the coliseum Saturday.
• 59:22
  Speaker 2: But that's called Michigan's in town. And because they may
• 59:26
  Speaker 2: be winning. If they're not winning, they don't draw anything,
• 59:29
  Speaker 2: and that's USC. So I don't I still think the
• 59:31
  Speaker 2: same thing I think about the job. It's just maybe
• 59:34
  Speaker 2: they've caught lightning in a bottle and they found out
• 59:36
  Speaker 2: the answer was in their building the whole time.
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean that's a good answer to have.
• 59:41
  Speaker 3: That's what That's what I enjoy seeing with the UCLA positions,
• 59:45
  Speaker 3: just having like because he played there, right sure, Yeah,
• 59:48
  Speaker 3: just having a little sick of somebody who understands the culture,
• 59:50
  Speaker 3: who understands like wanting to bring this brand back. He's
• 59:52
  Speaker 3: had some success.
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: It's like a bruin too. He's got the wave going there.
• 59:58
  Speaker 1: It's like, this guy's.
• 59:59
  Speaker 3: Perfect for you. It seems like he's having a blast
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 3: getting this opportunity. I think that would be an awesome.
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: I don't even know who what Tim Skipper looks like. Like,
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: I feel like it's about the face of a program.
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: He's the interim head coach. I don't even know what
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: this guy even looks like at all.
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 2: There's Tim Skipper there.
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 4: He is.
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: Wouldn't have guessed full transparency, would not have guessed Sherman's
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: brought up here. Does a three lost SEC team make
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: the college football playoffs?
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Probably more than one. Yeah, that's why Saturday is important.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 4: Listen.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 2: I know we're in October and no one's like thinking
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 2: this through all right. Last weekend Arizona had Byu on
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 2: the ropes and they let him off. They let him
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 2: off the hook. No one's thinking about the ramifications for
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 2: the SEC when BYU and Arizona are playing at one
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 2: o'clock Eastern time in the morning. But it's big because
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 2: if bringing Young keeps winning those close games and they're
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 2: sitting there eleven and one are undefeated versus a nine
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 2: and three SEC, they're going to get the playoff nod
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 2: later down the road. All right, So that's first thing.
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 2: Think about. Second thing this Saturday. If Notre Dame loses
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 2: to USC, they're gonna be out right now. A ten
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 2: and two Notre Dame versus certain nine and three secs
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 2: is a legitimate playoff debate. Come December, all the nine
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 2: and three SEC teams will get the NOD over a
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 2: nine and three Notre Dame because they will have lost
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 2: their only two high level games and lost their third one.
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 2: So they will have lost their three games against their
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 2: three biggest opponents elsewhere, their strength of schedules garbage, So
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 2: a lot of these games outside the SEC are going
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 2: to have as much impact on this as the SEC
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 2: games themselves. Then in the SEC, what you want to
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 2: ask yourself is, right now you've got ten teams with
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 2: zero or one conference losses. You got to start having
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 2: some separation. You've got to start having a few teams
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 2: separate instead of just a bunch of two, three and
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 2: four loss teams, because at that point it gets really
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 2: hard to differentiate two from here, two from there. But
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 2: I think I think the over under on three loss
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 2: teams is like one and a half, and I'm going
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 2: to take the over. By the way some setting the
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 2: number and taking the over it sounds fair. Yeah, I
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 2: think three loss teams are going to the playoff really god,
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 2: And that means other three lost teams are gonna get
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 2: left out because you're gonna have a bunch of three
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 2: lost teams, I think in multiple conferences confree So I
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 2: don't know. I don't know. A and M's undefeated guys
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 2: can Ole missus undefeated. Ole Miss goes to Georgia Saturday.
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 2: By the way, oh miss dog. Washington State doesn't matter
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 2: because they weren't even aware they were playing Washington State
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 2: until about eleven am Saturday morning. They've just been busy
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 2: prepping for Georgia. So don't worry about that.
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: Okay, I'm not gonna worry about that. Let's talk about
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 1: more coaching hypotheticals.
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 2: Lane Kiffin Florida. It's it, that's Florida.
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 1: Is that does he cause there? I don't know if
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 1: I heard this made it up in my head.
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 3: Who cares?
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 1: Seems like he kind of wants to go.
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 2: I don't know if he does or not. I think
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 2: I think he did once upon a time. He may
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 2: still want to go. I could find you people who
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 2: know a lot about that situation who would swear he'll
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 2: take the job. I was of that opinion. Yeah, okay,
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 2: we also know he has talked a lotublicly, including in
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 2: a documentary that just got released like last week, about
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 2: how woven into the fabric of ole Missy is now
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 2: I moved his family there, this and that. That could
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 2: be bs. He could be lying to you, or he
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 2: could mean every word of it.
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. Can you bring up the AP,
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 3: the AP twenty five top twenty five?
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 1: You just want to look at it?
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I want to look at it. I just want
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 3: to get his opinion on a couple of things because
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 3: he's got the Commissioner's poll.
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 4: Yep.
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 3: It slowly, it's making its way as the number one.
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 2: Then the AP catches up a couple of weeks later.
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 3: AP catches up a couple weeks later. We're bringing it
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 3: up here Twitter. Interesting, right, Yeah, what an opportunity you
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 3: have at the bottom of this list, Cincinnati being twenty four,
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 3: Nebraska being twenty five.
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 2: Oh to correct it, to correct correct the historical record.
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 3: And also it's like in your mind when you were
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 3: breaking down all the college ball, like thinking about Illinois
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 3: being unranked because they've gotten mopped by Ohio State and
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 3: they got mopped by Indiana USC being a one loss team,
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 3: that one loss being to Illinois, who even though they
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 3: did get mopped. Their two losses are to the number
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 3: one and the number three team in the country. Like,
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 3: when you're looking at the ap pole, who are they
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 3: missing on this week? Who do you think?
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 2: It's?
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 3: Like? Hey, you know, is it is Illinois ranked in
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 3: your Commissioner's poll or else on the chart? And for
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 3: the love of God, you better? Are you moving up?
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 3: Georgia Tech?
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 2: Georgia Tech's probably about I have done. I haven't done
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 2: the Commissioner's pole, so I like to marinate on these things,
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 2: make emotional decisions.
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 3: You're right, but I do want an emotional comment.
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 2: I do want to say. The Notre Dame Texas conundrum
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 2: confounds me a little bit. Texas and Notre Dame two
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 2: loss teams. Texas I think was twenty first, Notre Dame's thirteenth,
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 2: and Texas has two losses just like Notre Dame. But
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 2: Texas has a win over Oklahoma, a top ten Oklahoma.
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 2: Notre Dame's best win is what Boise or Arkansas like?
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 2: They don't they don't have a quality win. I guess
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 2: they're saying because their losses are to top five teams,
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 2: then that kind of carries more weight. But at some
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 2: point I'm asking doesn't winning the games matter, like you
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 2: lost to good teams. Okay, but the key word there's
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 2: lost and Texas just beat. I don't know. I'm not
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 2: that upset about it because they're both two lost teams.
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 2: But I still think Vandy's a little bit too low
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 2: because I don't think Vandy was in the preseason anything.
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 2: And so what I think people are doing with Notre
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 2: Dame all the way up at thirteen is I think
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 2: they are reverting back to their preseason expectation of Notre Dame,
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 2: and they're also projecting because now everyone who thought Notre
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 2: Dame was going to be good, they're looking for any
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 2: reason to believe Notre Dame's good, and by the way,
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 2: they probably are good. And now they're projecting they'll keep winning.
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 2: So we're gonna proactively bump them up to thirteen. Whereas
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 2: Vanderbilt didn't think they'd be up there, we begrudgingly had
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 2: to put them up there. The moment they go loose
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 2: to Alabama will knock them down. And meanwhile, they open
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 2: as a favorite against LSU, Vandy a points spread favorite
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 2: against LSU in the fall. Don't lie to our game.
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 3: Of the week, Yes eleven am kickoff, I may walk
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 3: to the game. Yeah. I also think it's crazy that
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 3: Washington is not ranked their only losses, their only losses
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 3: to the number one team in the country.
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 2: They weren't They weren't invited to the party, and they
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 2: were in.
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 1: That game too, regardless of what the score says, like
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 1: they had opportunities to win that game.
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 3: Are you on board with Oregon potentially being on on
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 3: fraud alert with their their only states?
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 2: People are saying, oh man, the Penn State win is fraudulent.
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 2: Now I look at that the opposite way. Do either
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 2: of you think that Penn State would have imploded had
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 2: they beaten Oregon?
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 4: No?
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 2: No, I don't either. So if Oregon caused that, I'm
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 2: not going to knock them. Because the team they killed
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 2: played dead the following two weeks, I'm going to credit
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 2: you for killing that team. So, no, they got beat
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 2: by a good Indiana team. Like at every turn, people
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 2: are trying to find a way to cut the legs
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 2: out from under Indiana's resume. Maybe Indiana's just really good.
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 2: Maybe Oregon is just really good. That wasn't impressive, though,
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 2: So I fuck with you.
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 3: Josh Bate.
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 1: Yes, last question before we go because we have Greg
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 1: Olsen coming up. Of all the head coaches that could
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 1: possibly take a job this offseason, who is, in your opinion,
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 1: the best head coach? The two names have come up
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 1: the most is Matt Campbell and Kurt Signetti.
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 2: Campbell is younger, much younger than sig so Matt Campbell
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 2: would be my answer. Matt Campbell. People just forget how
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 2: much of a wet bag of garbage the Iowa State
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 2: football program was, and he has made it so consistent
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 2: an idea that you can win there that people are
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 2: taking it for granted. This is not James Franklin at
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 2: Penn State. This is a historically terrible program, and Matt's
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 2: won there. They went to the Big twelfth title game
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 2: last year. They won eleven games. Last year. They're down
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 2: two starting corners, lost their nose guard and tailback in
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 2: the game the other night, down to their third string kicker.
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 2: Like that's the reason they're losing right now.
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 3: They have no depth.
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 2: Plus they just sent two wide receivers to the NFL Draft.
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 2: You should never be doing any of that at Iowa State.
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 2: So that guy's good My number.
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 1: One signating number two, Yes, do you have a third.
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 2: Let me think on that. I'll see you Wednesday.
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 1: This has been eye opening, eye opening experience. Every single
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: job in college football is open.
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 3: Isn't that crazy?
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 2: Oh?
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 1: Is there anything about Beamer? Should we be worried about
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: Beemer at all?
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 2: No?
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 1: I don't think so.
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 2: Saturday he'll be fine.
• 1:08:25

• 1:10:48
  Speaker 5: tell you about them right now.
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 1: I see you, Luke on the drawing up the game plan.
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 1: Four linebackers on that little clip.
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 4: I saw, yeah, just a four to four.
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 5: Luckily the production company Blur announced it didn't see exactly
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 5: where we lined.
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 3: Up perfect perfect, trying to give.
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 4: All the secrets away. I'm trying to get off for whatever.
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 4: Me and Lucra I was streaming my computer to my
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 4: television so we could watch film. And I can't get
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 4: it off.
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 3: How do I get it off?
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 4: I got it?
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 3: What was before we get into what was the result
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 3: of last week's game?
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 4: Uh, thirty two to zero thirty two? Nothing?
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 1: And I know, hey, listen, I know we don't. We
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 1: don't coach the score. We coached the process. Talk to
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 1: me about the tackling, the coverage, operation on offense, like
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 1: I need to hear it all.
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 3: Luke will started.
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 4: Doing t team. So not a lot of coverage. We
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 4: had one ball that almost got over our head, but
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 4: like we had a good pass rush. The tackling was good.
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 4: Greg's what is it? They had twenty eight plays for
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 4: twenty six yards. Had twenty eight plays twenty seven yards.
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 1: Got to love that, Luke.
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 4: When you deal gave up one first down on a
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 4: little jet They actually had a nice little concept. They formation,
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 4: you know, whated us and UH ran a little shotgun
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 4: speed pop and uh our kids were all chasing the
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 4: back and they kind of just popped it to the
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 4: fast motion guy and he got around our edge. That
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 4: was their one first down.
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 3: Now is that where you're getting in Luke's ear or
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 3: you're pretty confident that he's gonna get the defense corrected.
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 4: You gotta make we gotta make some adjustments. Well, the reason,
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 4: I'll be honest, I didn't get anyone's ear because I
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 4: coached the D line and our right edge, our right
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 4: end was the one who ran inside and didn't keep
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 4: the edge. So it was actually my fault.
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 1: Now, when you're looking at your league, we know the
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 1: NFL is a copycat league. Can we say the same
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 1: thing for Papa Warner? You see that jet sweep and
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 1: you're like, hey, maybe we should throw that in our bag.
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 4: Oh, we run a ton of but we run a
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 4: lot of jet sweep. I'll just put it that way.
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, let's don't give up too much.
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 4: I know, give away a lot of our secret.
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 3: Definitely want Luke coach kickley when you're going against a
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 3: wing te Uh, how how much are you getting in
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 3: the head? Coaches here to get a little extra time
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 3: in practice, because I understand this is a big eyes game.
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 3: We got to be very disciplined. We've got to be
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 3: very good with our eyes. Any subtle motions happen, you
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 3: need a transition. How much are you trying to capture? Hey,
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 3: we need an extra period for this wing tea. Look,
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 3: we're about to.
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 5: Face Luckily, we've played against it four times in the
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 5: last two years, so we've got a pretty good feel
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 5: for But you don't you don't need to practice with
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 5: the ball. Everybody just needs to be in their gap,
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 5: do their job, eyes in the right place, and if
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 5: you try to make somebody else's play in the wing tea,
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 5: that's when the ball pops. So when we practice, we
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 5: don't practice with the ball. Do your job, play your gap,
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 5: play physical, and tackle the guy in your gap.
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 4: And it's pretty straightforward.
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 3: It's a no ball period. It's a no ball period. Boys.
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you guys, I know the season's coming to an end, right,
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 1: We're getting close to the final.
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 4: Wednesday's last game?
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 1: Man, last game?
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 3: Do we got playoffs? Is there champions?
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 4: Like?
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 1: Oh, this is just we got to win this one.
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 1: Put a bow on top of an undefeated and just
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 1: put a bow.
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 4: This team is good. We knew they were our last
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 4: game of the season. They're good. They've only lost one
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 4: game in overtime, so they could be undefeated. They're good.
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 4: They got some talented kids, they're well coached. This is
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 4: this is probably gonna be our biggest challenge of the year.
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 1: What about this team?
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 3: Do they do so well?
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 1: I know, you guys, I don't know if you've watched
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 1: too much film yet, but are they big motion or
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 1: they just our guys?
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 4: They got a couple of good athletes, but that you
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 4: know at this age obviously, when you have a couple
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 4: good athletes, you've you've you build everything around them. So
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 4: we got to work out out for us on defense.
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 4: There they got a good back, their quarterback. They can run,
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 4: they can throw, they're fast, So we got to get
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 4: hats to the ball. We gotta tackle. We got to
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 4: get these guys on the ground because they got two
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 4: kids that on any play they could score.
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 3: Coach Keikley, what kind of chip are you building on
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 3: your shoulder? Because just what I'm hearing the rumors on Reddit,
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 3: there's a lot of message board chatter talking everything else
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 3: that talking a lot of shit about your philosophy, the
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 3: way you coach ball, saying you close the fridge with
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 3: your hip, lay on your tummy at night, do a
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 3: lot of things that Again, they're building a lot of
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 3: bulletin board material I'm wondering if you're hearing the noise
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 3: and how you're approaching this week.
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 5: Hey, we do the same thing when we talk to
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 5: our kids about We don't worry about the outside noise.
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 4: We believe in what we do.
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 5: We believe in our scheme, we believe in attitude, effort,
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 5: and intensity, and we believe in the game plan that
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 5: we put forward every week. So all that bulletin board material,
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 5: how I close refrigerator, I don't think it really matters.
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 3: Are you the type of coach that whenever you're getting
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 3: stops or tackles for loss, you're yelling at the other
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 3: sideline saying, google me, look me up?
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 4: Like, what's that's for? Saying that about? That's it? That's
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 4: like what Signetti does? You said google me?
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's a dog for that. This is a
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 1: This is a question for both you coaches in the
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 1: if you follow college football at all right now, there's
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 1: a lot of head coaching jobs being lined up. A
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 1: lot of people may be being plucked from one place
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 1: to go to another. A lot of rumors are swirling
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 1: around the pop Warner culture that Luke Keigley is one
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 1: of the head guys for a head coaching job in that.
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 5: I know what rumors you guys are looking at right now,
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 5: but you're you're you're Reddit sources I don't think are
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 5: super true.
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you see, I asked a question about you leaving.
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 1: Now Greg wants to stand up to No.
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 4: I didn't like that I was sitting and he was standing.
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 4: It made me feel very uncomfortable.
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 2: Is this great?
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 6: Do you?
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 1: Are you concerned about Luke Keigley taking a much deserving
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 1: head coaching job in your league.
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 4: The advantage, the advantage that I have is I'll out
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 4: pay I could outbid anybody in America.
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 1: Oh you got oil money, you got oil money and
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 1: Pop Warner.
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm like Texas Tech now right where we're just
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 4: we're just outbidding everyone for players, softball, pitchers, facilities. So
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 4: the good thing is like, there's nothing anyone could offer
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 4: Luke that I can't match. Pizza, buckets of beer. Yeah, day,
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 4: you know, Monday morning film session. No, we're not talking
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 4: about the Panthers. We were both calling the game yesterday.
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 4: We're not talking about the Panthers. We're talking about getting
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 4: our boys ready to finish the season strong. So I
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 4: think he values that over money. I think he values
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 4: that over prestige. So I'm confident that our relationship is
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 4: stronger than any rumor.
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Coach Olsen. With the landscape of trickling down from
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 3: NFL at college football, it's coming for high school and
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 3: these coaches kind of position themselves with nice buyouts if
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 3: they do make a move. Just asking both of you, Luke,
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 3: are you looking at structuring your contract a little bit
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 3: differently if there is a buyout situation happening? Uh, if
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 3: there's one already in place, what is the buyout look
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 3: like for Luke Keekley or Greg Olsen or coach Stewart.
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 3: Are you guys are these conversations taking place in the
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 3: youth football community.
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 5: I think if you position yourself for a buyout, you
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 5: already thinking about getting fired. And we don't have that mindset.
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 5: Our mindset we're just gonna win, We're gonna coach well,
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 5: We've got a great relationship.
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 4: You guys are just trying to drive a wedge in
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 4: between us all.
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 2: This is.
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 4: Year four of this. We've never been closer in our lives.
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 1: Now is not the time to get defensive Coach Kickley,
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 1: We're strictly just reporting.
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 3: The trying to drive a wedge because these young kids
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 3: are going to learn, They're gonna learn about the reality
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 3: of the media.
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 1: To ball out here.
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 3: Look at it. Look they're getting uncomfortable.
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 4: They got the.
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 1: Canvas going crazy. What do you guys say to the
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 1: rumors swirling about you guys taking the head high high
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 1: school football coaching jobs, because I've I've We've received a
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 1: couple of texts there Charlotte area code and it's the
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 1: it's they're going by the name. Don't worry about five
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 1: seven three people are saying, and a lot of coaches
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 1: in the high school world are talking ship like they
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 1: could they Look they can do it in the pop
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 1: Warner world.
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 3: There's no shot they could do it in high school.
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 3: Coach hear those rumors. Greg Ozie travels with the sun.
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 3: His son's gonna be playing high school ball here very soon.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we've been very clear. We have a great relationship
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 4: with the high school staff. Chris James, the varsity coach
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 4: at Charlotte Christian, good buddy of mine. I make it
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 4: very clear to everyone our job at the middle school level, yes,
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 4: we want to win. Yes, don't get me wrong. Our
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 4: job is to turn over as many good football players
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 4: as many kids ready for high school football to him
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 4: in ninth grade as humanly possible. We sent him a
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 4: class last year that are now freshmen. Our tailback from
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 4: our eighth grade team right now, Jamal Jamal Rule, who's
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 4: the kid going to Nebraska, the running back he broke.
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 4: He hurt his thumb and had surgery, so he's missed
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 4: the last couple of weeks. Our backup as a freshman.
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 4: He played for US last year as an eighth grader,
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 4: had never played football before, and now he's playing on varsity.
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 4: He had two touchdowns friday night against a really good
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 4: team out of Georgia and is playing real ball. He's
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 4: played one year for US. Our goal is how many
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 4: of these freshmen in every class can we have ready
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 4: to play high school ball. Whether it's as a freshman,
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 4: a sophomore, junior, who knows, but we're going to give
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 4: him another really good class to back up that one.
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 4: Our eighth graders this year are really good. Our seventh
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 4: grade class might be as good as any of them,
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 4: if not better. So as many of these classes that
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 4: we can prep hand over to the varsity to kind
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 4: of build this thing from the ground floor up. That's
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 4: our model. That's what we're trying to do, and we've
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 4: been very clear where our support lies, what our roles are.
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 4: We are the farm system. We are the fundamental foundation
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 4: of the Charlotte Cristian football program. We take great pride
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 4: in that we believe doing it at that level and
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 4: letting these kids grow up through the program is the
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 4: right way to do it. It's the best long term
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 4: way to do it, and that's what we believe in.
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 3: So it's safe to say you're, you know, in the
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 3: immediate future, let's you say ten years, ten years, they're
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 3: going to have this farm system in place. Middle school
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 3: football grey goals and Luke Keekley coach Steward, just ten
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 3: years is probably aggressive, Okay, just I didn't know. I
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 3: didn't know what kind of future we're looking at over.
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 1: Here, doubling down on that, How old is your youngest
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 1: son who is going to go through this process?
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 4: Seventh grade? So I got five, we got five more.
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 1: Years, five more years. Well, they go to high school
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 1: right ninth grade?
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 4: Correct, but he got he's letting the fan base know
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 4: my kids are right now, eighth and seventh Okay, so
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 4: I got my son after Wednesday, he's got four more
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 4: years of high school football. He'll be a freshman in
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 4: the next fall, and then my seventh graders got five
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 4: years left. He'll have eighth grade and then four years
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 4: of high school. So I got five more years after
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 4: this until my young my three are all gone, and
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 4: that'll be That's where our emphasis is, can we get
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 4: a five year grind? And again, I want to be
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 4: very clear of what we're doing here. There are a
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 4: lot of schools around Charlotte that impoor kids on a
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 4: daily basis. Kids are changing classes, changing schools mid season.
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 4: We got kids transferring after week five and then going
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 4: to show up and play quarterback on another team five
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 4: days later. Like what you see happening is happening here
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 4: in Charlotte. We have kids that want to come to
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 4: Charlotte Christian. If we could get everyone in, it'd be
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 4: a lot easier, but we can't. So you get in
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 4: a couple here and there. But we don't have open enrollment.
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 4: We don't have open admissions like some of the other
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 4: schools we compete against. And the reality is this is
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 4: the harder way to do it right, Like this is
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 4: the this is a bigger grind, and we don't shy
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 4: away from it. We're going to continue to coach the
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 4: hell out of these kids. We're going to continue to
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 4: coach our kids kids and build that core and build
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 4: that you know, it's no different than at the college level.
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 4: If you don't recruit well, you can only transfer portal
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 4: your wish so much, high school football has become the
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 4: transfer portal, at least here in North Carolina. There's always
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 4: going to be an element of kids coming into the program.
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 4: That's common. But you have to add good kids to
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 4: an already very good core nucleus of players that understand
• 1:22:23
  Speaker 4: your culture. That's the secret. You see it in college.
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 4: It's no different than in the high school world.
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 3: So this is again I'll clarify. I'll see if what
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 3: what I'm saying is correct, because this sounds like pretty
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 3: big breaking news that Adam Schefter would cover. Charlotte Christian
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 3: can feel good about having this staff in place in
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 3: the middle school era for the next five years.
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 4: I want to be clear. We are going to coach
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 4: the middle school team one more year. Next year, we're
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 4: going to get this current seventh grade class that we're
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 4: coaching now, okay, he will get them to high school.
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 4: How we manage doing. You know, do we start helping
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 4: out with some of the JD stuff to allocate some
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 4: time to there as these classes get older before they're
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 4: ready for varsity.
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 4: We will coach the middle school team, Okay, one more year,
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 4: next year, get my younger son up to high school
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 4: contracts up and maybe some sort of hybrid middle school
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 4: JV type world while you know my kids are in
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 4: ninth and tenth grade.
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 1: This is this is exactly why Greg Olsen has such
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 1: a great career on the podium and he's doing so great. Yeah,
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 1: he's so well spoken. He said, we'll do the JV
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 1: and we'll do the Pop Warner. But we know when
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 1: it sounds like he doesn't want it, we're gonna have
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 1: a head football coach for the high school coach James Is.
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 1: He doesn't know what's coming. I have, and I honestly
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 1: don't blame him.
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 3: I want to stay.
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 4: When I start that rumor, we're putting that rumor to.
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 1: Bed, and that you're doing a great job right now,
• 1:23:41
  Speaker 1: you're doing a phenomenal job. We'll put the room in
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 1: the bed. I'm gonna put the room.
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 5: Be not.
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 4: Eager, nor do I really want at whatever. I want
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 4: to be a head high school coach. That is a
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 4: twelve month of year job. I could not call my
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 4: games like volunteering. Doing what we're doing now as a
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 4: as a program accessory, as a program kind of helper
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 4: is one thing. Coaching real high school ball, if you
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 4: want to do it right, is a seven day a week,
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 4: twelve month a year, full time job. I'm not doing that.
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 4: Maybe Luke wants to do that. I'm not doing that
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 4: right now.
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 3: Some people saying you don't love it enough. Coachiley, Coach Kickley.
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 3: When you have, you know this next year going into
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 3: the final year your guys' contract, When you have seventh
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 3: graders hitting the portal and wanting to visit Charlotte Christian,
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 3: what is your message to them, knowing they're not going
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 3: to get you for the full two years at Charlotte Christian.
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 5: Well, they'll keep growing. We will still be part of
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 5: the program. So they might not get us that year,
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 5: but the next year will be still there. So they
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 5: just got to continue to learn and play hard. And
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 5: you want to come play real football, you gotta come
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 5: a shark Christian.
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 3: I love that.
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 4: It's our slogan. We play real ball.
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 3: We play. Yeah, hey, we have so, Luke And by
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 3: the way, whenever this your guys a season ends again,
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 3: invites on the table both you guys, Greg, you travel
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 3: around a lot as well, but open invite to join
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 3: the boys in.
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 1: The locker room or NFL forty five minute flight really easy,
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 1: We'll put you out the whole thing.
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 3: Quick flight forty five minutes will feed you really well.
• 1:25:10
  Speaker 3: Camaraderie will be high, will be with Clay Matthews and
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 3: Delaney Walker. But where I'm taking you with this question.
• 1:25:15
  Speaker 3: Clay Matthews has a very competitive kindergarten flag football team.
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 3: He's under a lot of heat right now from the
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 3: outside noise in the fan base and the parents that
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 3: are with that team because he went in the championship
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 3: Sunday and apparently didn't play all the kids because he
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 3: was trying to win a football game. Now he's taking
• 1:25:34
  Speaker 3: a lot of heat for not playing all the kids.
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 3: Care to comment, both of you, guys.
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 4: Derry Coacher's versus Night Fair. I'm shocked that there's not
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 4: playtime rules. When we used to do the kids at
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 4: the younger level, when we did Pop Warner, when Luke
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 4: and I and my dad did Pop Warner. A couple
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 4: of years ago. For a few years there was minimum
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 4: playtime rep. So this was well like fifth and sixth grade.
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 4: We had minimum plays and they had somebody who actually
• 1:26:02
  Speaker 4: sat on the sideline with a clipboard and had to
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 4: check off every kid had to play what ten plays?
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 4: Ten plays? Minimum play time You've always had in the
• 1:26:10
  Speaker 4: football world. There's been rules in place when we did
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 4: flag football when the kids were small. Each kid had
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 4: to play like a quarter or that whatever. There was
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 4: like ways to quantify playing time. So I don't know, Listen,
• 1:26:25
  Speaker 4: I'm not judging anyone. We have not always gotten it right.
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 4: It's very easy to get caught up in the moment
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 4: of trying to be competitive and trying to win at
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 4: the you know, kinder kindergarten six year olds. Yeah, even
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 4: I'm like, let him get a rep. I mean, they
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 4: don't have to get the ball.
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 3: Greg greg play has lost sleep because that trophy. They
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 3: lost the game they were in a they were in
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 3: a tough one, and he's trying to win a game.
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 3: All the kids don't get in. It's five on five.
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 3: I think this team carries fourteen on the roster. It's
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 3: a lot of games, but he's lost sleep over not
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 3: having the championship, and after you know, he's still bleeding
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 3: in a lot of parents, he's hearing a lot of
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 3: noise he didn't play my kids.
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 1: A lot of emails take place, a lot of random
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 1: text messages from different area codesh coming out at him
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 1: right now.
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 3: So it's tough, Luke, Are you trying to win a
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 3: football game or are you making your you getting all
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 3: the boys in?
• 1:27:16
  Speaker 4: Well, Luckily for us, we can get him in before
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 4: the game starts.
• 1:27:19
  Speaker 5: We play a fifth quarter, so all the kids we
• 1:27:20
  Speaker 5: get twelve offensive snaps twelve defensive snaps before the game.
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 5: We get all our kids in, so once the ball
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 5: kicks off, we're trying to win a football game. The
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 5: rules for the pop warner that Greg talked about helped
• 1:27:31
  Speaker 5: us out a lot, and then that fifth quarter before
• 1:27:33
  Speaker 5: the Christian game helps us out a lot because all
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 5: the kids get an opportunity to get a couple reps
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 5: every game, so they know they're going to get in.
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 5: And then when we play the real game, we get
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 5: our kids in there that can go play and help
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 5: us win football game. So I think we just we
• 1:27:46
  Speaker 5: owe it to the kids to go out and try
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 5: our best to win the games, and if the score
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 5: and the time in the game dictates it, we can
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 5: put the other kids in and get other kids opportunities,
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 5: because I think the best thing that we can do
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 5: is try to prepare our seventh graders for live action
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 5: next year. So it's the eighth grader and the older
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 5: guy's job to help us get ahead, get a lead,
• 1:28:05
  Speaker 5: and put those young kids in to give them an
• 1:28:07
  Speaker 5: opportunity to play for next year.
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 1: Just a couple of season bets. They knew all these
• 1:28:12
  Speaker 1: questions were coming. They've read everything we've read as well.
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 3: They did.
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 1: They just know, they don't they know what they're doing. Absolutely.
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 4: I'm just shock you guys, since so much time on
• 1:28:20
  Speaker 4: message boards.
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 1: Listen, that's what friends do. Greg Like, we sit there
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 1: with Greg's friend might.
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 4: Say, your friends, your message boards just trying to drive wedges.
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 4: Do I have a buyout? Am I going to coach
• 1:28:30
  Speaker 4: somewhere else?
• 1:28:31
  Speaker 1: And they what what a friend?
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 4: Look?
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 1: Would a friend allow all that noise to keep happening
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 1: or give you these to be able to sit there
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 1: and say, listen, this is not true. This is true.
• 1:28:44
  Speaker 1: So we're giving you guys a massive platform for you
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 1: guys to say, Listen, I know everyone. Everyone's eyes aren't
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 1: Charlotte Pop Warner football right now, let us be very
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 1: clear about Charlotte Christian Pop Warner, Boom Warner. Listen, it's
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 1: under high school, it's Pop Warner. It's a blame, I
• 1:29:00
  Speaker 1: think a thing. That's how it goes.
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 3: I just think, how can I motivate these boys? How
• 1:29:03
  Speaker 3: can I give them some Multimore material? How can I
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 3: give them some fodder? You know, I know a lot
• 1:29:07
  Speaker 3: of people from your area tune in. They want to
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 3: know are we going to have a staff over the
• 1:29:10
  Speaker 3: next few years. I'm trying to do my journalism as well.
• 1:29:13
  Speaker 4: I think they tune in because they hope we lose.
• 1:29:16
  Speaker 1: That's that's exactly where you want to be to. You
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 1: kind of want to be hated in that world. You
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 1: got you gotta love. Coach, go ahead, if you guys
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 1: win this game. I don't know if the league gives
• 1:29:26
  Speaker 1: you a trophy for going to feed or will you
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 1: guys go out and get your team trophy? So hey,
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 1: undefeated season maybe rings now, probably not.
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 4: You know, I think that would go against everything we've
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 4: preached to the boys all year. I want to make
• 1:29:39
  Speaker 4: sure we're consistent, like playing to win and being out
• 1:29:44
  Speaker 4: there for the sole purpose of only caring about winning,
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 4: I think are two very different things. Like we believe
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 4: winning is a byproduct, like winning is a byproduct of
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 4: how we prepare as coaches and the plan we put in,
• 1:29:54
  Speaker 4: and then winning is a byproduct of how we practice
• 1:29:56
  Speaker 4: today and then our film study that we're going to
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 4: do after and how we and how we warm up
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 4: and how we execute, Like we believe if we do
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 4: all those things, winning will take care of itself, right,
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 4: Like we will win if we do all of these things.
• 1:30:10
  Speaker 4: We're not gonna sit here and say rule number one
• 1:30:13
  Speaker 4: win because then I feel like we're losing all of
• 1:30:16
  Speaker 4: the development. We're losing all of the pieces that we
• 1:30:18
  Speaker 4: all understand prepares these kids to play in high school,
• 1:30:21
  Speaker 4: prepares these kids to be really good varsity players at
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 4: some point in the next couple of years. So if
• 1:30:26
  Speaker 4: we win every game, great, If we don't win every game, fine,
• 1:30:30
  Speaker 4: Like we understand what we signed up for. We're gonna
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 4: try to win. We're gonna do everything in our power,
• 1:30:35
  Speaker 4: and then after the game ends, sure we'd be seven
• 1:30:38
  Speaker 4: and oh if we were fortunate enough to win, or
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 4: we were six and in one if we weren't, And
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 4: the conversation is, did we get better? Did we develop
• 1:30:45
  Speaker 4: these kids? Did we develop an attitude and toughness around
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 4: football that we can carry over into high school? Like
• 1:30:50
  Speaker 4: we want to make sure all those things are right.
• 1:30:53
  Speaker 4: We feel like if we do, all those things are
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 4: odds of our winning any given game, this game two
• 1:30:59
  Speaker 4: weeks ago, whenever it was, are in our favor. If
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 4: we play well. If we don't play well, this team
• 1:31:04
  Speaker 4: can beat us.
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 3: I'll tell you what. If I have an air, I
• 1:31:08
  Speaker 3: want to play for you tube?
• 1:31:11
  Speaker 4: You do you do?
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 3: I don't have an air. I don't have a boy.
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 4: I thought you had a boy.
• 1:31:17
  Speaker 3: No, two girls? Two girls?
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 4: Girls? Got it? Then come on cheerleader squad?
• 1:31:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, looks I love, I love, I love
• 1:31:24
  Speaker 3: I guess yeah, I love him to cheer for your
• 1:31:27
  Speaker 3: if I if I ever have a boy, I'm moving
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 3: to Yeah.
• 1:31:30
  Speaker 2: Perfect.
• 1:31:30
  Speaker 4: You guys are all girls?
• 1:31:32
  Speaker 3: All girls? Four girls come in the.
• 1:31:33
  Speaker 4: Water on that bus.
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 1: It's I think it's the size really than anything. Just
• 1:31:37
  Speaker 1: there's always a I think it's the same. Who is
• 1:31:39
  Speaker 1: it Tobb? I think it's yeah, But there's also like that.
• 1:31:42
  Speaker 4: I think it's God's way of saying, like you're too
• 1:31:45
  Speaker 4: massive generation.
• 1:31:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you're too massive, much masculine dogs.
• 1:31:51
  Speaker 1: You are too much dogs playing on that grid iron.
• 1:31:54
  Speaker 1: We have to give you a girl to calm yourself
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 1: down a little bit.
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 3: I love that.
• 1:31:59
  Speaker 1: You guys, what talks a matter of football?
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 3: Real quick?
• 1:32:01
  Speaker 4: Yep? I got six minutes perfect.
• 1:32:05
  Speaker 1: Let's rapid fire Panthers go and beat the Dallas Cowboys.
• 1:32:09
  Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys defense is absolutely terrible. But Bryce Young has
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 1: himself a nice game. Are we going to be surprised
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 1: after Bryce Underwood get Bryce Underwood, Bryce Young gets benched
• 1:32:19
  Speaker 1: last year? Playing better?
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 2: Now?
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 1: Are we going to be surprised when the Carolina Panthers
• 1:32:22
  Speaker 1: give him an extension.
• 1:32:25
  Speaker 4: I think they got to figure out what they're gonna
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 4: do with that fifth year option first.
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 5: That's the big thing going into this offseason, and I
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 5: think Dan Morgan and Bran Tillis and those guys in
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 5: the front office are going to try to figure out
• 1:32:34
  Speaker 5: what they want to do there.
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 4: I think Bryce has played a lot better in spots.
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 5: Obviously through the interception yesterday that wasn't his fault as
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 5: a slant that got dropped, and I thought at the
• 1:32:43
  Speaker 5: end of the game. Bryce took us down at the
• 1:32:46
  Speaker 5: six minutes to go to go score and win, so
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 5: he's played better in spots. I think what all we're
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 5: looking for from this team is just more consistency. I
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 5: think we're good upfront. We've run the ball really well
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 5: the past couple weeks, and for Bryce, I think it's
• 1:32:59
  Speaker 5: protecting the football and more consistent. And we got plenty
• 1:33:01
  Speaker 5: of games left to figure out what they want to do,
• 1:33:03
  Speaker 5: so I think the biggest thing before an extension gets
• 1:33:05
  Speaker 5: figured out is what do we do.
• 1:33:06
  Speaker 4: With that fit your option? They'll have to figure that
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 4: out this offseason.
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 3: Have you watched much Dallas defense tape, Luke?
• 1:33:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah? They struggle, man, I mean, is it is it not.
• 1:33:17
  Speaker 3: Like when I'm watching, Like I'm sitting there and it's
• 1:33:21
  Speaker 3: surprising to me how stagnant the back end is on
• 1:33:25
  Speaker 3: their pre snap keys and everything else they feel. I
• 1:33:28
  Speaker 3: know that they've mixed in a lot more man recently,
• 1:33:30
  Speaker 3: but those first several weeks, I feel like they're just
• 1:33:33
  Speaker 3: kind of like they're just kind of showing you what
• 1:33:34
  Speaker 3: they're doing. And they also they're so vanilla with Cover
• 1:33:37
  Speaker 3: two and everything else. They're not. They don't have an
• 1:33:40
  Speaker 3: all world roster, but they're not doing anything you know,
• 1:33:43
  Speaker 3: defensive philosophy wise that like help them out, you know
• 1:33:45
  Speaker 3: when they're gonna blitz because they're all lined up across
• 1:33:47
  Speaker 3: the line of scrimmage. But are you surprised when you're
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 3: watching kind of this Dallas team operate defensively.
• 1:33:54
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I just think, you know, watching it, especially last
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 5: week against the Jets and then watching some of the
• 1:33:58
  Speaker 5: game yesterday, a lot too high shell with two deep safeties.
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 5: And for us, that's what we do best is run
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 5: the ball from under center. So anytime we get that
• 1:34:06
  Speaker 5: two deep shell like that, Bryce is either checking into
• 1:34:09
  Speaker 5: a run or sticking with the run. And on first
• 1:34:11
  Speaker 5: down we are averaging almost seven yards of play and
• 1:34:14
  Speaker 5: a lot of it was based on the run game.
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 5: And then we have the ability to throw some play
• 1:34:17
  Speaker 5: action off of it. And I think for us, you
• 1:34:20
  Speaker 5: take a light box with our offensive line what Rico
• 1:34:22
  Speaker 5: has been able to do. And I tell you the
• 1:34:24
  Speaker 5: biggest thing us yesterday is I think Dave Canalison Izay
• 1:34:28
  Speaker 5: have done a great job of dialing plays up and
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 5: calling plays and calling him at the right at the
• 1:34:33
  Speaker 5: right moment. So yeah, Dallas has struggled defensively this year obviously,
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 5: but I think those guys in the.
• 1:34:37
  Speaker 4: Offensive side of the ball did a really good job
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 4: of calling stuff.
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 1: Heading over to the NFC East, you got the Giants
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 1: defeating the Eagles on Thursday Night football, largely due to
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 1: the CREA team Caucasians, Camp Scattaboo and Jackson Dart. Do
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 1: you think the way both those guys play definitely not
• 1:34:55
  Speaker 1: sustainable long term? However, right now it's the most electric
• 1:34:57
  Speaker 1: thing we're watching in football. Do you think think they
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 1: can will this Giants team into possibly being I'm not
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 1: gonna say NFC East Championship, you still the Commander's there,
• 1:35:07
  Speaker 1: but maybe a wild seventh, you know, make the playoffs.
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 1: Can you see it happening?
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 4: I mean, I guess you could see anything happen. I
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 4: mean I saw them before dark even took over. Again.
• 1:35:18
  Speaker 4: Coming off what we're just talking about with the Cowboys offense,
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 4: they very well should have another win. I mean, they
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 4: lost by a sixty four yarder at the end of
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 4: regulation in a game they scored forty in overtime against
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 4: Dallas in Dallas when Russ went off and threw for
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 4: a thousand yards or whatever.
• 1:35:35
  Speaker 6: You know.
• 1:35:36
  Speaker 4: So I mean we've seen them play well. I think
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 4: their defense is really good. Obviously, Scataboo and Jackson Darton
• 1:35:41
  Speaker 4: now are the toast of the town, as they should.
• 1:35:43
  Speaker 4: They're fun, they don't take themselves too serious. They're letting
• 1:35:46
  Speaker 4: them loose. All that is all fun as long as
• 1:35:49
  Speaker 4: you continue to win. But I think defensively, I think
• 1:35:53
  Speaker 4: they're pretty nasty, right. I think that Brian Burns trade
• 1:35:55
  Speaker 4: is obviously paid off. I know he was leading the
• 1:35:57
  Speaker 4: league in sacks? Is he still I don't hit another
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 4: one though he was going into yesterday. I don't know
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 4: where he stands now. But you know, a duel Carter
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 4: Cavon Thibodeau's and playing well. Obviously they got big dex
• 1:36:08
  Speaker 4: Dexter Lawrence in the inside. So I mean that defense
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 4: they invested in heavily is playing really well. And then
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 4: obviously Skataboo and Jackson Dart have given them a little juice,
• 1:36:17
  Speaker 4: given them a little energy. I think losing neighbors at
• 1:36:20
  Speaker 4: some point, not having that go to guy is gonna
• 1:36:24
  Speaker 4: catch up to you at some point. But listen, can
• 1:36:27
  Speaker 4: I see them sneaking in as a seventh seed? Yeah?
• 1:36:29
  Speaker 4: I mean why not? I mean, we've seen teams that
• 1:36:31
  Speaker 4: don't even have a winning record. We've been on one.
• 1:36:34
  Speaker 4: We made a playoffs without a winning record. So you
• 1:36:37
  Speaker 4: never know in the league what I bank on it
• 1:36:39
  Speaker 4: probably not. I still think Philadelphia figures it out. I
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 4: still think Washington is a good team. Dallas is a threat.
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 4: Just because they're gonna score thirty a game, you're gonna
• 1:36:49
  Speaker 4: have to win in a shootout. At least that's what
• 1:36:51
  Speaker 4: it shows. So the division still challenging, which always makes
• 1:36:54
  Speaker 4: the path a little bit more difficult.
• 1:36:56
  Speaker 3: What you're doing to camp Scataboo in the a gab luke.
• 1:37:00
  Speaker 4: With good angle. He's a young guy, he's a rookie.
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 4: You can't let a rookie run through dude.
• 1:37:03
  Speaker 3: Hey do you see uh do you see the Zach
• 1:37:05
  Speaker 3: vond clip on the sideline back to backs? Right? He's
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 3: physical man, bro physical, kind of had Zach on the side, shoulder.
• 1:37:13
  Speaker 5: Down the checko just wants to run through your face. Yeah,
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 5: that's how Scataboy is. He's the same exact way. Yeah,
• 1:37:20
  Speaker 5: he loves the contact.
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 3: Oh loves it. You see him just having a helmet on,
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 3: just head button, a brick wall and the outside. His
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 3: mom came out and said he used to put on
• 1:37:27
  Speaker 3: his older brother's shoulder pads when he was little and
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 3: just go run into the telephone pole.
• 1:37:34
  Speaker 1: Like I said, not not sustainable, but oh my god,
• 1:37:37
  Speaker 1: this is going to be the most electric four or
• 1:37:39
  Speaker 1: five of your career we ever see a camp'scatabilly.
• 1:37:41
  Speaker 3: Dude, what do you guys? What are you seeing from
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 3: the Philadelphia Eagles. I feel like they have the problems
• 1:37:47
  Speaker 3: are kind of coming to the surface. I feel like
• 1:37:49
  Speaker 3: they are four and two right now, could easily be
• 1:37:51
  Speaker 3: a one in five football team. If Cede Lamb catches
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 3: the deep ball in Week one, if they don't block
• 1:37:58
  Speaker 3: the field goal last field field goal, Yeah, field goals
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 3: against the Rams. They don't block a pun against the
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 3: Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Obviously I'm reaching more with that one,
• 1:38:05
  Speaker 3: But to me, it seems like all the stuff is
• 1:38:08
  Speaker 3: coming to the surface about the Philadelphia Eagles. There's a
• 1:38:10
  Speaker 3: lot of frustration. It seems like Jalen Hurts is holding
• 1:38:13
  Speaker 3: on to the football, just not spinning it when he
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 3: has the opportunity. What are you seeing when you watch
• 1:38:17
  Speaker 3: that game?
• 1:38:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I've called a lot of their games over the years.
• 1:38:21
  Speaker 4: I think their rosters as good, if not better, than
• 1:38:23
  Speaker 4: anybody in the league. I think offensively, some of these
• 1:38:27
  Speaker 4: conversations have been going on for a while. I think
• 1:38:29
  Speaker 4: they still got to figure out their passing game. I
• 1:38:31
  Speaker 4: think last year when Saquon's busting seventy five yard touchdowns
• 1:38:35
  Speaker 4: what seemed like a weekly clip, at least through the playoffs,
• 1:38:37
  Speaker 4: it was. It can kind of hip little things. When
• 1:38:40
  Speaker 4: you're that explosive in the run game, it makes up
• 1:38:42
  Speaker 4: for some limitations in the passing game. Personnel wise. In
• 1:38:46
  Speaker 4: the passing game, there's no reason they shouldn't be better.
• 1:38:48
  Speaker 4: Talent wise. The two receivers got it. They got the
• 1:38:51
  Speaker 4: best two tackles in the league combo, so they should
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 4: be better. The thing that surprised me the most against
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 4: the Giants was the defense. Like I I you know
• 1:39:02
  Speaker 4: that Vic Fangioe. They're talented, they're young, I know they
• 1:39:05
  Speaker 4: Obviously they didn't have I don't think Carter played right.
• 1:39:07
  Speaker 4: Jalen Carter's play was out against the Giants. Obviously, JA
• 1:39:11
  Speaker 4: that made an issue. But like I think, defensively is
• 1:39:14
  Speaker 4: where they got to get back to being dominant. Right
• 1:39:16
  Speaker 4: you look back at last year the Super Bowl run
• 1:39:18
  Speaker 4: top defense in the league, a uniquely explosive running game,
• 1:39:22
  Speaker 4: and then the next factor was we still could get
• 1:39:25
  Speaker 4: vertical on you in the passing game.
• 1:39:26
  Speaker 3: D A. J.
• 1:39:26
  Speaker 4: Brown and DeVante DeVante Smith and and hit Chump plays.
• 1:39:30
  Speaker 4: So like, when your explosive passing game is your like
• 1:39:33
  Speaker 4: third best thing you do, you're gonna be hard to beat.
• 1:39:35
  Speaker 4: I think that was last year's journey. So if the
• 1:39:38
  Speaker 4: defense and they can't get Saquon going, now, all of
• 1:39:40
  Speaker 4: a sudden, there's a lot more emphasis on the passing game.
• 1:39:44
  Speaker 4: And I think that's the biggest difference between this year
• 1:39:46
  Speaker 4: and last year.
• 1:39:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I love it.
• 1:39:47
  Speaker 1: I know you got to get out of here. The
• 1:39:49
  Speaker 1: last thing I'll ask you about is Kansas City Chiefs.
• 1:39:51
  Speaker 1: They got Rashid Rice back this week. They've had a
• 1:39:53
  Speaker 1: dominant win over the Lions, who we all thought was
• 1:39:55
  Speaker 1: the best team in the NFL. Well, the Chiefs back,
• 1:40:00
  Speaker 1: what do you think.
• 1:40:02
  Speaker 4: I think they have a lot more weapons than they
• 1:40:04
  Speaker 4: have in the past.
• 1:40:05
  Speaker 5: They got Worthy, Hollywood, Brown, Kelsey played well, Pacheco, Kareem
• 1:40:08
  Speaker 5: Hunt sounds like it looks like like Mahomes is playing
• 1:40:11
  Speaker 5: better last night. And then they can rush the pass
• 1:40:13
  Speaker 5: from the defense side of the ball. So I think
• 1:40:15
  Speaker 5: they played some close games earlier. They lost by a
• 1:40:17
  Speaker 5: real small margin in those first few weeks, and I
• 1:40:20
  Speaker 5: don't know. I mean, I don't think you can ever
• 1:40:21
  Speaker 5: count those guys back, count those guys out. And now
• 1:40:24
  Speaker 5: they have a more physical presence on the inside, I
• 1:40:27
  Speaker 5: think they're gonna.
• 1:40:27
  Speaker 2: Be just fine.
• 1:40:29
  Speaker 3: Anything sneaky you're seeing in the NFL right now that
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 3: you're like, hey, this is a team that's going to,
• 1:40:33
  Speaker 3: you know, be the cream of the crop come the
• 1:40:35
  Speaker 3: end of the yea.
• 1:40:35
  Speaker 4: I think Tampa Bay is really good. I think if
• 1:40:39
  Speaker 4: they could ever get healthy, they don't have anybody. I mean,
• 1:40:41
  Speaker 4: they don't have a soul out there. And I know
• 1:40:45
  Speaker 4: San Francisco obviously was too, so give them, you know.
• 1:40:48
  Speaker 3: I hate that Fred Warner went down, dude, I know, disgusting.
• 1:40:53
  Speaker 4: Did forty nine ers just seem like they cannot escape
• 1:40:56
  Speaker 4: the injury curse? But this goes back years. But Tampa Bay,
• 1:40:59
  Speaker 4: I mean, Mike and stand on the side room. I
• 1:41:01
  Speaker 4: think god Win they lost, and Buka and Beck, I
• 1:41:05
  Speaker 4: mean they they have I think Bucky Bucky Irving was
• 1:41:09
  Speaker 4: out like there, I didn't did Worst not play too?
• 1:41:14
  Speaker 1: I know that works played the last year I got
• 1:41:17
  Speaker 1: home from.
• 1:41:17
  Speaker 4: My game, and I kind of watched it in passing
• 1:41:19
  Speaker 4: as I was getting organized. But like the point being,
• 1:41:22
  Speaker 4: Baker might be the MVP of the league right now,
• 1:41:26
  Speaker 4: in the top two or three. He's literally willing them
• 1:41:29
  Speaker 4: to win. And were they five and one? I mean
• 1:41:33
  Speaker 4: they're they're really good.
• 1:41:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah that that that run on third and what fourteen?
• 1:41:38
  Speaker 3: It's hot from Baker Mayfield.
• 1:41:40
  Speaker 1: God, he is the truly willingest team to win. Guys,
• 1:41:44
  Speaker 1: good luck.
• 1:41:45
  Speaker 4: I thought this was a nice treat.
• 1:41:46
  Speaker 3: Oh dude, it was.
• 1:41:47
  Speaker 1: This is awesome. This is everything more you could possibly
• 1:41:49
  Speaker 1: ask for in a Monday morning.
• 1:41:51
  Speaker 3: That's that's my king. That's my king right there. When
• 1:41:53
  Speaker 3: Fred Warner went down with yesterday, it felt like any time,
• 1:41:56
  Speaker 3: you know, Luke would go down and I'm like, man,
• 1:41:57
  Speaker 3: he's gonna play the next week's out for the season,
• 1:41:59
  Speaker 3: and just kind of breaks your fucking heart. That's right.
• 1:42:02

• 1:42:05
