  Speaker 1: Sports Radio brings you CU Buffs legend, three-time NFL pro
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: bowler and tackling machine.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: Let's talk to the monster of God.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: Himself, Chad Brown. Brought to you by Surfside, 100 calories,
• 0:16

• 0:19
  Speaker 2: It's not a seltzer, it's a Surfside.
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: Now, let's tackle some football analysis.
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: All right, let's head out to the Ramos Law Hotline.
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: Car accident, you need Ramos Law. Medical doctor and attorney, RamosLaw.com.
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: Did Crickman call you, Chad? Chad Brown with us. The mother,
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: or I'm sorry, the monster of God? Is that what
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: he just called you?
• 0:39
  Speaker 4: That is what he calls me, yes.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: Have you not seen that series yet? Have you seen
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: that series, Brett? Oh, I don't know.
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: I didn't know.
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: I don't know what it is. What is it? Well,
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: it's these crazies like Chad who are into reptiles. And they...
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: I mean, Chad, I don't know if you know Chad's history. Oh, yes,
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: I'm well aware.
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: Of your reptilian tendencies. Yeah, it's unreal, the lack of
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: fear for him, for a guy like him.
• 1:06
  Speaker 4: He fears.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: Have you ever been afraid of a snake, Chad?
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: I was in Indonesia, and there were some 18- and
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: 20-foot pythons. And to walk into a cage with an
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: animal that large, it was the first time in my
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: life I realized, I could possibly be prey. But outside
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: of that circumstance, no, in a US setting, I've never
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: been afraid of a reptile. It was in the wilds
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: of Indonesia where I thought, yeah, there's something out here
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: that could snatch me up and end my life quickly.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: Okay, and I don't want to turn this into reptile hour.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: But you're mowing the lawn, as I do. I love
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: mowing my lawn. And you're mowing along the fence line.
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: And all of a sudden, you happen upon a rattlesnake.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: What do I do? What's my move? What do you do? Yeah,
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: what would your move be? What would your move be
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: in that situation?
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: Well, my move would be to go over there and
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: hopefully get that snake and move it to a safe place.
• 2:09
  Speaker 5: How? Your move?
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: How?
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Because I'm a skilled snake handler, I would get
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: a trash can or something and maneuver the snake into
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: a trash can. Rattlesnakes are typically pretty slow in their movements.
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: So to get a hoe or a shovel and pick
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: it up and put it into a trash can and
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: move it to a safe place would be very easy.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: Oh, I can find a hoe.
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah. For you, you call animal control. Don't do anything
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: with a hoe or a shovel, any related tool set.
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: You call animal control and let the professionals handle that
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: for you. Okay. Thank you. You're going to do something
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: dumb and you're going to hurt the animal or you're
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: going to hurt yourself.
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: Correct.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Now, Chad.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: Just call my wife and say, move this thing.
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, true.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: Chad, I want Vic to relay something to you that
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: he had an exchange yesterday.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: And Vic, just give him what you heard. Well, the
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: word on the street is that Sean Payton is going
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: to take over play calling duties. I did some due diligence,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: made some calls. And it turns out that. There is
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: a movement that's going to be made, and I don't
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: know the extent of his play-calling duties. I don't know
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: if he's going to take full ownership of it, take
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: a bigger role in it. But something is a-popping at
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: Dove Valley and Bronco headquarters. Today we'll find out. Davis Webb,
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: he has turned to speak to the media. He will
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: be asked about this play-calling exchange. He will answer. I
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: wonder how much Sean Payton will take over the play-calling.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: But he's taking over some of it.
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: Today, Chad. I'm not shocked with the ineffectiveness of the offense,
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: but you don't have to do a very deep dive
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: into Broncos tape to see that Bo Nix needs to
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: release the ball. There are certainly opportunities where he is
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: in the pocket, where the protection is good, and he's
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: not reading the routes down the field. There are receivers
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: that have gotten separation, and he's dumping the ball down.
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: When you have 214 yards of passing, but 180 of
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: those yards are yards after catch, that's an indicator that
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: you're not pushing the ball down the field. and becomes
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: impossible to operate your offense if your quarterback is constantly
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: checking it down. The safeties have no reason to stay back.
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: They can come up fast against the run. They know
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: nothing's going over their heads. So it compresses the run game.
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: It compresses the pass game. Your quarterback has to press
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: the defense and attack the defense. So maybe there is
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: a play-calling component to this, but I also see a
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: Bo Nix issue in this as well.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: So how would a different voice in his ear, let's
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: say Sean Payton does handle it, how would that change
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: what you just described?
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: Wow. How would that change what I just described? You know,
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: the play caller has an opportunity to add things into
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: someone's ear other than just the play call. So if
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: Davis Webb is just... giving the play call and not
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: giving some kind of instruction on where he wants the
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: ball to go. Maybe Sean Payton assumes that's going to
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: be the difference. I'm going to call this particular play
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: Spider Y2 Banana, and I want you to hit the banana.
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: I don't know what that conversation was like with Sean
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: Payton and Bo Nix in the past, but if that's
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: the missing piece of some kind of prompt or instruction
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: to go where to go with the football, then maybe
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: that's the difference between that Sean Payton is looking to
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: include by taking over some of this.
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: You know, Chad Brown with us. All conversations with Chad
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: are brought to you by Surfside. 100 calories, 2 grams
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: of sugar, and zero bubbles. It's not a seltzer.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: It's Surfside. It's something that I thought about.
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: It's so odd to me. And one thing is confirmed,
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: if this is true, that the decree given to give
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: up play-calling duties did not come above Sean Payton. Because
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: if that happened, then he wouldn't be taking them over
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: four weeks into the season. This was a Sean Payton decision,
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: which leads to why did he do it in the
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: first place? If this was going to be, if he
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: was going to take the reins back this quickly, especially
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: given the fact that Chad, they faced four of the
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: best defenses in the NFL.
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: So I'm trying to accept Vick's birdies and what they've
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: told him, but I immediately have those same thoughts that
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: you just talked about is it seems very early in
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: this experiment that it seems if you were to give
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: play calling up to somebody, that there's got to be
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: more of a window of opportunity there. You've got to... Now,
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: often when we see Sean on the sideline and the
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: offense is calling plays, Sean's got hands on knees. He
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: doesn't seem to be in constant communication with his play caller.
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: So I would think that would be an intermediate step
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: rather than you taking over. That this series... Let's keep
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: it on the ground early. Let's attack him on third down.
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: I've heard Bill Cowher say that to an offensive play caller,
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: even though Bill Cowher wasn't calling plays. I've heard Bill
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: Belichick do that. So I've heard all kinds of coaches
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: give a play caller a theme or some kind of
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: level of instruction and then still left the individual play
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: caller up to the play call. So there's a middle
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: part to this that if Sean Payton is truly taking
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: back over play callings, that would have been leaped over
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: and been a common part of my football experience in
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: the past that they have not done.
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: Chad Brown with us. I want to play a clip
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: from Bo Nix yesterday. He was talking about risk-taking. And
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: this is about 40 seconds, but I want you to
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: listen and get your response.
• 7:42
  Speaker 5: What does the play ask for? What situation in the
• 7:44
  Speaker 5: game are we? Are we in the fourth quarter to
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: where we're down by eight? It doesn't matter. I got
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: to do this anyway. Yeah, then let's do it. But
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: at the same time, we weren't in that situation before.
• 7:54
  Speaker 5: majority of the game to where it's just, you know,
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: all or nothing. Let's just be dumb. So at the
• 7:58
  Speaker 5: same time is like, I want to be aggressive. I
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: want to be really, when it's open, let's hit it.
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: But at the same time, I've been gotten too many
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: times trying to do too much in this day and
• 8:08
  Speaker 5: age in our offense. I don't have to be a
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: hero on every play. I don't have to do too much.
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: Get the ball to RJ and he'll run for 20.
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: You know, that's just as good as sometimes throwing it
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: 20 yards in the air. I'm actively looking at it,
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: seeing where I can grow, but The labels and stuff,
• 8:23
  Speaker 5: that's where you can sort of get caught up in it.
• 8:25
  Speaker 5: And if you're not careful, turnovers may go through the roof,
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: and that's just not what I need to be doing.
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: What's your reaction to that?
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: I think that's an incomplete telling by Bo Nix. You
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: don't want to turn your quarterback into some gunslinger. You're
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: not looking for Jameis Winston-esque stats. You're not looking for
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: 30 touchdown passes and 30 interceptions. But just as there's
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: a gray area between Davis Webb calling plays and Sean
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: Payton calling plays where they're in collaboration, there's a gray
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: area between Bo Nix becoming check down Charlie and Bo
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: Nix becoming a gunslinger. You have to press the ball downfield. Now,
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: sometimes it is smarter to take the safer dump down
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: and allow your athletes to run. But if RJ Harvey,
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: it keeps having 10 receptions a game, that's taking away
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: receptions from wide receivers. That's taking away the ability to
• 9:18
  Speaker 4: be aggressive with the defense and and force them to
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: respect intermediate and deeper throws and keep the safeties back. So, yeah,
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: it's not one or the other. We're not asking you,
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: Bo Nix, to be a gunslinger. We're asking you to,
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: on a couple of third downs, a half, press the defense,
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: throw the ball deep, get the defense to respect you,
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: which then opens up other things. So it doesn't have
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: to be one or the other. There's another place in
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: the middle that we can go to And I think he's,
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: in that answer, really stepping over that and missing what
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: I'm trying to communicate here is, yeah, there's an opportunity
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: to do that. You don't have to press it. We're
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: not asking you to play outside of yourself. We're not
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: asking you to take sacks and hold the ball too
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: long and put the ball in harm's way. That's not
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: what the request is. The request is, again, if you've
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: got 214 yards passing, 180 of those are yards after catch,
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: that means you didn't throw the ball very far down
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: the field and it does not affect the defense. the
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: same way a more aggressive approach would.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: Last question on this topic, and we'll move on. Again,
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: I've been told, good authority, that play-calling duties are shifting
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: back towards Sean Payton. How much of those duties remain
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: to be seen? But I'm very interested today when Davis
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: Webb meets with the media. Nobody wants to be embarrassed.
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: Nobody wants to go through this. Nobody wants to be
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: put in the public light that, oh, it didn't. How
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: do you think he'll answer the question when he's asked
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: about play-calling? Let's say that Sean Payton is taking a
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: bigger role in this. What does Davis Webb say?
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: I think he could accurately say the offense hasn't been
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: what we would hope it would be. That's an actual, factual,
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: true thing. And the offense has been the limiting part
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: of this football team so far. That's actual and true
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: as well. I'm a fan of coaches taking accountability. I
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: know there's a thing. with coaches and politicians and CEOs
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: where they step up and they spin things and they
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: try to present a different side rather than what we're
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: at with the question that's asked. So I love the
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: fact that coaches are willing to stand in front of
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: the media and some coaches are willing to take accountability.
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: And hopefully Davis Webb does. This would be a great
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: lesson for him. This would be a great feather in
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: his cap when he becomes a head coach eventually down
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: the line in this league, that that future owner goes, okay,
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: I like this guy. He's stepping up to the mic,
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: and he's taking accountability, and he's saying the truth here.
• 11:51
  Speaker 4: He doesn't have to say, I was awful. He can
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: just say the office wasn't what it would be. The
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: head coach is in charge, and he's decided to change things.
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: And I am going to, as my job, assist Sean
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: Payton and assist Bo Nix the absolute best way that
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: I can because my obligation is not to me and
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: to my glory. It's to the district.
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: Oh, we missed the very end of it.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: It was going to be so good, too.
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: It was going to be good.
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: That was going to blow the top off this place.
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: It really was.
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: We've got to get him back because I've got to
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: ask him about Prime on accountability. I have to ask
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: him about what's going on at CU.
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: As we try and get him back, Vic, one thing
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: that I heard from Chad Brown and both Bo Nix
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: and Sean Payton is there's a middle to what they're doing.
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: that they are just completely skipping over. There, there is
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: a Bo Nix doesn't need to be everything or nothing
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: at all.
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: There is a middle ground to that.
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: Sean Payton doesn't have to go from I'm calling the
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: plays now, or I'm not doing anything at all. There's,
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: there's a middle ground to both of these. Now it
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: looks like we got Chad back. So Chad, um, Vic
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: has another question here regarding college football.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you mentioned coaching accountability. How did it make you
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: feel after the most recent CU loss where the coach
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: met with the media afterwards and was asked what's wrong,
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: and he pointed to the quarterback?
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: That's a dereliction of coaching duty in my mind, a
• 13:24
  Speaker 4: dereliction of coaching duty. You are the coach. It falls
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: on you, particularly if you have said things like, I
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: handpicked every player on this roster. So if you're the
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: coach who's handpicked these players– and they don't perform up
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: to expectations, unfortunately, I think that's someplace where you should
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: take accountability. If I'm going to talk about Davis Webb
• 13:43
  Speaker 4: stepping to the mic and doing that, I would love
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: to see Coach Prime do that. And I did not
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: think that presser after the last game against Texas Tech
• 13:52
  Speaker 4: was him taking accountability at all. So very disappointing. And
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: particularly from a college standpoint, we're not looking to blame
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: the kids. You as a coach have to take that
• 14:03
  Speaker 4: responsibility there. That's got to be on your shoulders. it
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: was very ugly and unfortunate for me, and hopefully the
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: next press availability, there's a far more accountable tone from
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: Coach Prime.
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: It's also very weird that a guy makes his first
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: start for you, and you're forcing him to throw the
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: ball 44 times, and he runs the ball 17 times,
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: and you're saying that's his fault. That feels like a
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: lot on somebody's plate for a first start, number one.
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: Number two, what did you think about the playbook being found?
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: Well, before I get to the playbook, there's a clip
• 14:35
  Speaker 4: of coach prime at halftime saying, we're going to run
• 14:37
  Speaker 4: the ball down their throats. And then you go out
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: and I think you run the ball four times in the,
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: in the second half. So how is this connecting? How
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: is this adding up? How you're doing a proper to
• 14:49
  Speaker 4: this guy in your first start, as you just mentioned,
• 14:52
  Speaker 4: it has to be some kind of play call and accountability.
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: And then this is the playbook issue is one of
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: those details that is just so easily handled. Anytime anything
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: is handed out, it has the player's number on it
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: or the coach's initials on it. And then when we
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: get back together after our time at the hotel, those
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: things have to be turned in. And there is someone
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: on the staff who is responsible for checking all of
• 15:19
  Speaker 4: those off. This is not very difficult. This has been
• 15:23
  Speaker 4: a part of football since I was at CU when
• 15:27
  Speaker 4: we had paper playbooks. You handed those in on game day.
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: You handed those in after the preparation for the week.
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: So if your team is not doing some of these
• 15:39
  Speaker 4: basic football things that are conventional football wisdom to ensure
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: there's no lost playbooks, to ensure that there are not
• 15:49
  Speaker 4: eight or nine guys on the field, when you do
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: things counter to conventional football wisdom, you get counter to
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: conventional football wisdom results. And we've seen how those results
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: have gone for CU's offense and for CU's special teams.
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: Well, and I was just, sorry, last thing on this.
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: The special teams part is crazy because you don't have
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: a special teams coordinator, which I think they got to
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: be the only school in the country that doesn't have one.
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: But to have that, and then you have eight guys
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: out there on special teams, so you have to call
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: a timeout, only to have nine guys out there afterwards
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: is pretty nuts.
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: It's bananas. Not every team has a special teams coordinator.
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: When I was with the Buffs, we did not have
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: a special teams coordinator, but coach McCartney himself coached the
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: punt team. And Hey, no surprise. We were typically the
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: best punt team in the country.
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: I tell you how to punt it to rocket Ismail.
• 16:42
  Speaker 4: I was going to go there. But outside of that circumstance,
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: we were incredibly successful as a punt. And that's where
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: coach Matt got his confidence that, yeah, even if we
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: missed the kick, we could kick it to him and
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: like rock and get him down because There were guys
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: who were starters covering those punts. I was a starter
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: at CU for four years. I was also a starter
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: at left guard on punt team for four years. So
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: Coach McCartney ensured that that was a very viable unit
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: because it was such an exchange of field position. So
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: you don't have to have a special team coordinator, but
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: the head coach has to be involved in some way
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: in special teams rather than Being upset on the sideline,
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: that's not the right number of guys on the field.
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: What unit are you coaching, Coach? Gary Barnett talked about
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: the same thing at his time at CU. He did
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: not have a special teams coordinator, but he personally coached
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: one of the four special teams units.
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: Who you got this week?
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: I am off this week, but next week I got
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: Ohio State at Indiana. Last week I had Ohio State
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: at Iowa. So Ohio State seems to be for real.
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: Julian Sane may be playing some of the best quarterback.
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: Jeremiah Smith.
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: He's better than just the best wide receiver in the country. Sorry,
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: Malachi Toney. He is the best football player in college
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: in this country.
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: Chad Brown.
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: He talks to us every single Thursday.
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: Always appreciate it, Chad.
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: Thank you.
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: Thanks, guys. Have a good one.
