- 2:51Speaker 1: over unders with Brad all right before we before we
- 2:56Speaker 1: get into football, as we were just getting ready to
- 2:59Speaker 1: hit the red button to record. Here WVU Athletic Department
- 3:05Speaker 1: announcing that this coming season in sport for the university
- 3:10Speaker 1: will be dedicated in honoring the late Jerry West. And
- 3:15Speaker 1: it's not just in basketball, it's every WVU sport. And
- 3:21Speaker 1: this is a heck of a heck of a concept
- 3:25Speaker 1: and heck of an idea. And so as the release
- 3:29Speaker 1: says somenew him as mister Clutch, others referred to him
- 3:32Speaker 1: as the logo to the WUVU Department of Intercollegiate Athletics,
- 3:36Speaker 1: he is simply the greatest mountaineer ever. Yes, ever, so
- 3:41Speaker 1: they're going to honor Jerry West throughout the upcoming season,
- 3:45Speaker 1: and one thing is they will announce a specific weekend
- 3:50Speaker 1: men's basketball game will dedicate to his memory and legacy.
- 3:53Speaker 1: That's just one thing. Also, every team, every sports team
- 3:58Speaker 1: at WVU this year will have four four on their
- 4:02Speaker 1: uniform and season ticket holders dedicated mount to your fans
- 4:09Speaker 1: will also be able to purchase a mini replica of
- 4:11Speaker 1: the famous Jerry West statue that sits outside the blue gate.
- 4:15Speaker 1: Ticket Holders who purchased many replica statues will also be
- 4:17Speaker 1: able to receive it at the selected game. The men's
- 4:20Speaker 1: team aware the Jerry West throwback uniforms in a game
- 4:24Speaker 1: to be determined that they wore back in four when
- 4:28Speaker 1: they West Virginias celebrated one hundred years of basketball.
- 4:31Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a lot of neat things going on there,
- 4:34Speaker 3: how we can talk about, but that one's going to
- 4:35Speaker 3: be cool. Oh there on those more the more royal
- 4:38Speaker 3: blue jersey than the Navy. That was a lot of
- 4:41Speaker 3: fun in two thousand and four when we broke those out.
- 4:43Speaker 3: I'm glad to see those making your return.
- 4:46Speaker 2: And that is so appropriate because when Wes died earlier
- 4:50Speaker 2: this year and we talked about it, I wrote about
- 4:52Speaker 2: it and The first thing was I never contemplated his
- 4:55Speaker 2: death like he would. That West would always be there. Yeah, right,
- 4:59Speaker 2: he would always either and throughout his career, whether it
- 5:03Speaker 2: was West Virginia High School in West Virginia and the
- 5:05Speaker 2: pros and his general manager Brad that he was, he
- 5:08Speaker 2: was always there. And no matter what, no matter what
- 5:12Speaker 2: disparaging thing was said about West Virginia, no matter how
- 5:15Speaker 2: much West Virginia suffered, how much criticism West Virginia got,
- 5:18Speaker 2: there was always Jerry West, who was undeniably one of
- 5:23Speaker 2: the greatest basketball players ever. It was not debatable, right,
- 5:26Speaker 2: So you always had that, You always had this.
- 5:28Speaker 3: Great point, great point. So that's really neat. That's a
- 5:30Speaker 3: heck of an honor. We've seen a lot of times
- 5:32Speaker 3: different individual teams honor folks with numbers, but to do
- 5:36Speaker 3: it across every sport that speaks to just how big
- 5:39Speaker 3: of a figure Jerry West was.
- 5:41Speaker 1: Reren Baker had a statement in the release. Through his
- 5:44Speaker 1: lifetime of commitment to West Virginia University and its academic
- 5:47Speaker 1: and athletic mission, the great Jerry West has touched the
- 5:50Speaker 1: lives of thousands of our student athletes, and that's why
- 5:52Speaker 1: every team will honor this season.
- 5:55Speaker 2: Good Cole.
- 5:56Speaker 1: He's the greatest mountaineer ever. His outstanding legacy is large,
- 6:00Speaker 1: and he will always be beloved, remembered in the hearts
- 6:02Speaker 1: of all West Virginians. So that came out just a
- 6:06Speaker 1: little bit ago today. So every WVU team will wear
- 6:09Speaker 1: the forty four and then they'll do other things and
- 6:11Speaker 1: bring back the old school. As you said, that's a
- 6:15Speaker 1: neat color. I like that color.
- 6:16Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I think the players will really get into
- 6:20Speaker 3: that and fans will love seeing that.
- 6:22Speaker 2: That'll be neat. Will they wear the short shorts now.
- 6:25Speaker 3: Although the style is going back a little bit. Yes,
- 6:28Speaker 3: it is trending back away from the super bagg I
- 6:30Speaker 3: don't think it'll be as short though.
- 6:32Speaker 1: All right, we jump into Mountaineer football over unders and
- 6:38Speaker 1: went to practice yesterday, and we talked about this yesterday
- 6:43Speaker 1: as well. Jade and Bray had a practice. A wide
- 6:48Speaker 1: receiver transfer from Oklahoma State that was just above and
- 6:52Speaker 1: beyond it. He took over, like every eye on the
- 6:56Speaker 1: field was him. Offensive guys, defensive guys are like looking
- 6:59Speaker 1: at he just got He got like scalding hot, like hot,
- 7:04Speaker 1: so hot that you had to put a welding helmet
- 7:06Speaker 1: on otherwise it burn your eyes. That's how hot he got.
- 7:08Speaker 1: He made some catches. It was strong he made Like
- 7:11Speaker 1: I said, the analogy was at the end of the
- 7:13Speaker 1: gold medal game for the men's basketball team this past weekend,
- 7:17Speaker 1: Steph Curry just like he just went off. That's what
- 7:20Speaker 1: That's what Bray did good.
- 7:22Speaker 2: That's what Bray deff which you need.
- 7:24Speaker 1: Again, that's one practice on one afternoon, and it's practice
- 7:29Speaker 1: and it wasn't full scrimmage, but it showed you that
- 7:34Speaker 1: within him that he can he can make some he
- 7:39Speaker 1: can make big boy plays, and so you just hope
- 7:41Speaker 1: that translates into a game.
- 7:43Speaker 2: Good point.
- 7:45Speaker 3: How many times do you see it? Can you see
- 7:46Speaker 3: it consistently? All the questions, but the fact that it's
- 7:49Speaker 3: there and he's a he's a guy. We've talked about
- 7:51Speaker 3: him a bunch. He's a guy we think the guys
- 7:52Speaker 3: we saw last year on this roster will step forward.
- 7:55Speaker 3: He's guy's come in and done it at this level.
- 7:57Speaker 3: Now can he go from the thirty catches he was
- 7:59Speaker 3: as I get to forty five? What's that look like?
- 8:02Speaker 3: Not not an official overrunner? I was just gonna say no,
- 8:06Speaker 3: just ran out of shows. Could do more of these
- 8:07Speaker 3: could have done. Receiver catches who leads the team but
- 8:10Speaker 3: didn't get there, but Bray. I'm looking forward to watching Bray.
- 8:13Speaker 2: And how many times have we talked about over the
- 8:15Speaker 2: over the last several years, Bread of the receiver making
- 8:18Speaker 2: a play, right, I mean, the quarterback can't do it all.
- 8:21Speaker 2: At some point it's.
- 8:22Speaker 1: Just it's just why do you shut your Why do
- 8:25Speaker 1: you shut your mind?
- 8:26Speaker 2: Because so you shut you shut your microphone off?
- 8:29Speaker 1: Again? Why is he doing that?
- 8:30Speaker 3: Because I was gonna sneeze but the camera was still
- 8:32Speaker 3: on me. I don't want to sneeze on camera.
- 8:33Speaker 1: This is a podcast. This isn't hoppy show. You can sneeze,

- 13:37Speaker 1: don't know if you know this hobby, but these these
- 13:39Speaker 1: accounting firms, they just continued to get bought up, bought up,
- 13:42Speaker 1: bought up, bought up, bought.
- 13:43Speaker 2: Up by other outside entities.
- 13:46Speaker 1: These got like local. They put their flag down the ground.
- 13:50Speaker 1: They says, West Virginia dirt for us. They'll take care
- 13:52Speaker 1: of people outside of the state, but they're West Virginia owned.
- 13:56Speaker 2: Good for them.
- 13:56Speaker 1: Yeah, are these are these good?
- 13:59Speaker 2: We'll see I like him.
- 14:02Speaker 3: You're gonna have to dig in here with me. On
- 14:03Speaker 3: number one. Well, I got a lot of stuff. I
- 14:08Speaker 3: got a lot of stuff on.
- 14:09Speaker 2: This first one.
- 14:10Speaker 3: All right, well, copy, I actually had to stop myself
- 14:13Speaker 3: because it was you know, you were getting away. I
- 14:15Speaker 3: got got in there, and there's just some really interesting
- 14:18Speaker 3: numbers that go along with this first one.
- 14:20Speaker 2: So here's where we're.
- 14:21Speaker 3: Starting, had to go with our guy, Garrett Green, hadn't
- 14:25Speaker 3: hadn't asked the Garrett Green question.
- 14:26Speaker 2: Left yet a lot of ways we can go.
- 14:28Speaker 3: Obviously, rushing yards, passing yards, touchdowns, there's there's again. I
- 14:32Speaker 3: wish we could do nine of these shows because I'd
- 14:35Speaker 3: hit him in a bunch of categories, but I thought
- 14:37Speaker 3: we'd get in the weeds a little bit hot, okay something.
- 14:39Speaker 3: So we're gonna look at a specific stat from Pro
- 14:42Speaker 3: Football Focus, and we've talked a lot about it on
- 14:44Speaker 3: the shows over the year, especially last year. It's big
- 14:47Speaker 3: time Throws b T T big time throws. It's defined
- 14:53Speaker 3: as a pass with excellent ball location and timing, generally
- 14:57Speaker 3: thrown further down the field and door into a tighter window. Okay,
- 15:02Speaker 3: a PFF proprietary stat big time throws. Garrett was elite
- 15:09Speaker 3: last year in this category, I mean elite guys. Third
- 15:13Speaker 3: in the nation. He had thirty one big time throws,
- 15:16Speaker 3: thirty one of them. First in the country. Michael Pennix,
- 15:20Speaker 3: have you heard of him from Washington?
- 15:21Speaker 2: Yeah, he played for the World's Championship.
- 15:24Speaker 3: Second in the country. Drake May Carolina, West Virginia didn't
- 15:27Speaker 3: face him but he might have heard of him the
- 15:30Speaker 3: last round NFL draft pick.
- 15:31Speaker 1: I'm absolutely thrilled that we didn't play him.
- 15:33Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 15:34Speaker 3: Agree, Garrett was just behind those two. That was it, Pennix,
- 15:38Speaker 3: May and Garrett, which means hoppy. Garrett had more big
- 15:43Speaker 3: time throws, more explosive throws downfield than Heisman winner Jade
- 15:46Speaker 3: and Daniels did last year. So this is one of
- 15:48Speaker 3: those categories when we say, and people ask me us
- 15:51Speaker 3: all the time, why how I like these stats?
- 15:53Speaker 2: Why I got into these stats? Why do I gravitate?
- 15:56Speaker 3: This is one of the reasons top instead of us
- 15:57Speaker 3: just sitting up here saying, tell you what, Garrett Green
- 15:59Speaker 3: was elite last year. He had an awesome season. He
- 16:03Speaker 3: had a national good seaton. You quantify a context, you
- 16:06Speaker 3: put yeah, there's I think that's a fun way to
- 16:09Speaker 3: analyze is you can take some of these numbers and say,
- 16:11Speaker 3: we're not just bloviating up I mean, we are bloviating,
- 16:14Speaker 3: but it's not just bloviation up here. It's look at this,
- 16:17Speaker 3: look at look at where he's stacked up in that
- 16:20Speaker 3: category that grades difficult big time throws.
- 16:24Speaker 2: Hence the name. So you don't want to come on
- 16:26Speaker 2: here and just say, like, Garrett's good and stuff.
- 16:28Speaker 3: I think Garrett's really good. I think he's gonna have
- 16:30Speaker 3: a good season.
- 16:31Speaker 2: Yeah, he's good.
- 16:31Speaker 1: He put me to it.
- 16:32Speaker 3: We try and put some numbers behind it, and I
- 16:34Speaker 3: just think it adds some context hop to when we
- 16:37Speaker 3: say Garrett had a really good year. Right, everybody listening
- 16:40Speaker 3: to this saw last year Garrett Green had a really
- 16:42Speaker 3: good year. And you can see the raw counting stats
- 16:45Speaker 3: as they're often called tony counting stats, rushing touchdowns. But
- 16:49Speaker 3: now you get down in here a little bit, and
- 16:51Speaker 3: that's one of things I like about Pro Football Focus,
- 16:53Speaker 3: this particular, this particular stat's a fun one to watch.
- 16:56Speaker 2: All Right.
- 16:57Speaker 3: So he had thirty one of those big time throws
- 16:59Speaker 3: last year, number three in the country. So here's our
- 17:01Speaker 3: question as we enter the twenty twenty four season with
- 17:05Speaker 3: what's that mean that he was third last year behind
- 17:07Speaker 3: those guys. He was the top returning big tt very
- 17:09Speaker 3: good quick pick up by you. You were locked in
- 17:11Speaker 3: again early like that were last year. So I do
- 17:13Speaker 3: he locked in the way? At practice the other day
- 17:17Speaker 3: we were talking about that this are are over under
- 17:19Speaker 3: rushing attempts. Came up with some different folks at practice.
- 17:22Speaker 3: Your boy over here started quoting the numbers like I
- 17:24Speaker 3: was doing it. Really, he was absolutely listening last week.
- 17:27Speaker 3: Now I think that was the only category he listened in,
- 17:29Speaker 3: but he was dialed in, dialed in again. All right,
- 17:33Speaker 3: Garrett returns nation's leader in big time throws. Here's our question.
- 17:38Speaker 3: Will he go over or under thirty three and a
- 17:42Speaker 3: half big time throws this season? It was thirty one
- 17:46Speaker 3: last year. Thirty three and a half is the number. Now,
- 17:49Speaker 3: before you answer, this is where you gotta bear with
- 17:51Speaker 3: me a little bit. We'll come back to your answer.
- 17:53Speaker 3: But here's some numbers, because that's where I started to
- 17:56Speaker 3: get really deep into you. This is pretty amazing. Only
- 18:00Speaker 3: Pennix and May went over that number last year. What's
- 18:04Speaker 3: kind of interesting. Pennix's previous high was just twenty seven,
- 18:09Speaker 3: but both those only two guys in the country went
- 18:11Speaker 3: over this thirty three and a half number last year.
- 18:13Speaker 3: There were five first round picks in last year's NFL draft, Pennix,
- 18:17Speaker 3: bow Nix, Caleb Williams, JJ McCarthy, Jade and Daniels. Only
- 18:23Speaker 3: May was able to have that many big time throws
- 18:27Speaker 3: in two different seasons.
- 18:29Speaker 1: Wow, that's a great start.
- 18:30Speaker 2: Think about that.
- 18:30Speaker 1: It is.
- 18:33Speaker 3: Only Pennix and Williams plus May got to that number
- 18:37Speaker 3: one at least once.
- 18:39Speaker 2: That's a mass of the thirty one.
- 18:41Speaker 3: I almost thought of putting the number lower than thirty
- 18:44Speaker 3: one because he again, that's a massive number that Garrett
- 18:48Speaker 3: picked up last year. Hold on one's okay, you got
- 18:50Speaker 3: a question here, but wait, there only three quarterbacks passed
- 18:54Speaker 3: that number in twenty twenty two. Drake May was one
- 18:57Speaker 3: of them. Heisman winner that year. Caleb w did not
- 19:00Speaker 3: get to that many big time throws. Okay, I've got
- 19:04Speaker 3: some more stuff talking about gohead.
- 19:06Speaker 2: What was so? What was what was Pinnix's number last year?
- 19:10Speaker 2: It was May's number? You asked me too soon? I'm sorry,
- 19:12Speaker 2: So I think that's relevant. I was a very third question. Yeah,
- 19:15Speaker 2: it is a good question. Okay, Well, I just that
- 19:19Speaker 2: will determine. I think I know where you're I think
- 19:21Speaker 2: I know where you're going on this. You probably do.
- 19:24Speaker 1: I think I know where you're going to probably do.
- 19:26Speaker 2: I mean, look, if Penix was at you know, thirty five,
- 19:29Speaker 2: and May was it thirty four, then that effects yeah. Okay,
- 19:33Speaker 2: so Pennix was at forty three? What forty three?
- 19:36Speaker 1: Big time they were unbelievable.
- 19:38Speaker 3: Yeah, they were unlived. Drake May at thirty five. Okay,
- 19:43Speaker 3: here's some more Let's just while you're why you're considering that,
- 19:46Speaker 3: Let's let's do some more things here.
- 19:48Speaker 2: Can I gunk it up even more? Sure?
- 19:50Speaker 1: What was May the previous year before? It's thirty five
- 19:53Speaker 1: last year? Because you said he went back to back.
- 19:55Speaker 2: Yep, he did.
- 19:56Speaker 1: He went more than he did, so he went as
- 19:59Speaker 1: a two years ago. He's probably was he thirty something
- 20:03Speaker 1: forty five? He went forty five to thirty five?
- 20:06Speaker 2: Yeah, we co And do you know who was fourth?
- 20:09Speaker 2: And what was their number when last year? Yeah? Okay,
- 20:12Speaker 2: good questions keep throwing stuff at you here, Sorry about that.
- 20:17Speaker 1: And when he was in seven?
- 20:19Speaker 2: Okay, would you ask me fourth last year? Yeah?
- 20:21Speaker 3: Yeah, Preston Stone from SMU. He returns he had thirty
- 20:26Speaker 3: so he was close to Garrett one behind.
- 20:28Speaker 2: So you're saying the number is thirty three and a half. Yeah.
- 20:31Speaker 3: Here, here's some other interesting things. Let's dive into this
- 20:34Speaker 3: and then we can kind of work through the reasons
- 20:36Speaker 3: why that may go up or the reasons why that
- 20:38Speaker 3: may come back a little bit. We've talked about the
- 20:40Speaker 3: Big twelve having a great quarterback class this season. To
- 20:43Speaker 3: put some of this in perspective, Shador Sanders is a
- 20:46Speaker 3: guy a lot of people are talking about Heisman winner,
- 20:49Speaker 3: maybe the first pick in the draft Da Dah. Shador
- 20:51Speaker 3: Sanders had twenty three big time throws last year in
- 20:55Speaker 3: an offense that chucked it a lot. Rock O Beck
- 20:58Speaker 3: had an unbelievable freshman year. He's rightfully so getting a
- 21:01Speaker 3: lot of talk this season. Hit fourteen big time throws
- 21:04Speaker 3: last year. Avery Johnson hop a lot of people raving
- 21:08Speaker 3: about him split some time with Will Howard had three
- 21:11Speaker 3: big time throws last year. Which, Speaking of which Will Howard,
- 21:16Speaker 3: who's now all due respect to Will Somehow, Ohio State's quarterback,
- 21:20Speaker 3: now starting quarterback. What do you mean, man Somehow listed
- 21:24Speaker 3: at DraftKings respect Hey, I said, all due respect, here's
- 21:27Speaker 3: my thing. He's Ohio State starting quarterback. A lot of
- 21:29Speaker 3: people think Ohio State's best team in the country. Right
- 21:31Speaker 3: spent four hundred and twelve billion dollars in nil reportedly
- 21:34Speaker 3: in the mid season. Will Howard's a quarterback. He has
- 21:37Speaker 3: the six best Heisman ods. All of a sudden, Will
- 21:39Speaker 3: Howard has a six best Heisman ods simply because he's
- 21:42Speaker 3: at Ohio State. He did not come up with that
- 21:45Speaker 3: number last year. He went in close. Dylan Gabriel no
- 21:48Speaker 3: longer at Oklahoma, now at Oregon. He's the favorite for
- 21:52Speaker 3: the Heisman right now at DraftKings, he had just twenty
- 21:55Speaker 3: one big time throws last year. Second best Heisman ods
- 21:58Speaker 3: right now. Carson Beck back at Georgia had just seventeen
- 22:02Speaker 3: big time throws last year. One last stat. I don't
- 22:05Speaker 3: killing you with numbers, but one last stat because again,
- 22:08Speaker 3: I as much as we talked about Garrett, we might
- 22:10Speaker 3: have underrated what an unbelievable season the dude had last year.
- 22:14Speaker 3: Ten percent of his total passes qualified as a big
- 22:17Speaker 3: time throw, ten percent of every pass thrown, or of
- 22:20Speaker 3: his total passes. That was the highest percentage of passes
- 22:24Speaker 3: in the entire country last year for any quarterback that
- 22:27Speaker 3: played more than six games. Wow, So they made a
- 22:32Speaker 3: ton of passes. At thirty one, his percentage of those
- 22:37Speaker 3: big time throws as a as a percentage of his
- 22:40Speaker 3: total throws was the best in the country. What and
- 22:43Speaker 3: so Pennix had more, but his percentage wasn't as high.
- 22:46Speaker 3: It may had more percentage of his total throws weren't
- 22:49Speaker 3: as high and just incredible.
- 22:50Speaker 2: To define BTT again. Define it again, what it means? Yeah?
- 22:54Speaker 3: Yeah, it is defined as a pass with excellent ball
- 22:58Speaker 3: location and timing, generally thrown further down the field or
- 23:02Speaker 3: into a tighter window. So what they're trying to do
- 23:04Speaker 3: there is sometimes the quarterback makes a perfect throw and
- 23:08Speaker 3: it doesn't end up into a completion. Maybe it's bad
- 23:10Speaker 3: at a way, maybe the receiver drops it. It doesn't
- 23:13Speaker 3: necessarily turn into a touchdown or a big play. But
- 23:15Speaker 3: that's not the quarterback's fault. He put the throw exactly
- 23:18Speaker 3: where the throw had to be.
- 23:19Speaker 2: Does that Does that number surprise you? Because his completion
- 23:22Speaker 2: percentage was was kind of low by national standards. It's
- 23:25Speaker 2: fifty three percent, so it doesn't have to do a completion, Yeah,
- 23:29Speaker 2: it wasn't.
- 23:29Speaker 3: What wasn't low is the percentage of times he went
- 23:32Speaker 3: over the top on big plays. Okay, how about that
- 23:34Speaker 3: big time throw? How about that throw downfield? Because that's
- 23:37Speaker 3: the part we talked about. Okay, Yeah, would you like
- 23:38Speaker 3: a few more completions underneath? Absolutely, and we'll talk about that.
- 23:41Speaker 3: But his ability to get it down deep in receivers
- 23:43Speaker 3: to make plays down there, he was he was as
- 23:45Speaker 3: good as there was in the country last year with it,
- 23:48Speaker 3: so now start to go through that, the numbers themselves
- 23:52Speaker 3: make it really hard to see being able to match
- 23:55Speaker 3: that as second season.
- 23:56Speaker 2: HM.
- 23:56Speaker 3: Right, So your your natural, I think inclination was to say,
- 23:59Speaker 3: my god, that's got to be under Can you have
- 24:01Speaker 3: another season that was that good? That was one of
- 24:04Speaker 3: the best two or three quarterback seasons in the country
- 24:08Speaker 3: from that number, And you could argue the best when
- 24:10Speaker 3: you take that percentage. But you've got better receivers, more
- 24:13Speaker 3: experienced receivers. You're gonna get some guys downfield you think
- 24:18Speaker 3: throw it into tighter windows. You might throw it underneath
- 24:20Speaker 3: a little bit more into some tighter windows that qualify
- 24:22Speaker 3: for these.
- 24:24Speaker 1: So you can throw this thing five or eight yards
- 24:25Speaker 1: and it still could be considered a big time throwing.
- 24:27Speaker 3: Most of the time it's down the field, as the
- 24:29Speaker 3: definition says, generally thrown further down the field, but into
- 24:34Speaker 3: a tight window is one we saw it practice yesterday.
- 24:37Speaker 3: He threw one on the sidelines to Preston Fox where
- 24:39Speaker 3: the defender was right there. I mean the window was
- 24:41Speaker 3: inches and he threaded it right in there. Okay, thirty
- 24:45Speaker 3: three and a half is the number he had thirty
- 24:46Speaker 3: one last year.
- 24:48Speaker 1: Hop where you're going?
- 24:49Speaker 2: Wow, Hey, Brad, First of all, good intel, good deep dive.
- 24:54Speaker 2: It makes it harder. It's helpful, but also makes it harder,
- 24:57Speaker 2: if that makes sense. I'm just I'm going to go
- 25:01Speaker 2: I'm going to take the field and go under. You know,
- 25:04Speaker 2: I just think that that and I'm not even sure why.
- 25:07Speaker 2: I mean, those numbers are all over the place, like
- 25:08Speaker 2: May was at thirty five and Penix was at forty three.
- 25:10Speaker 2: But Penis threw it all over the place. You should,
- 25:16Speaker 2: you should have a solid run. I'm just I'm going under.
- 25:20Speaker 2: I mean thirty three and a half. I'm going under.
- 25:23Speaker 1: Everything within me is screaming, go under everything right. But however, however,
- 25:34Speaker 1: since it does not mean that he has to complete
- 25:37Speaker 1: the pass, but he has to put it into the
- 25:41Speaker 1: window of where it's supposed to be.
- 25:43Speaker 3: Oh, I say, this is very intuitive and very good,
- 25:46Speaker 3: very insightful.
- 25:48Speaker 1: I talked to the head ball coach this morning and
- 25:51Speaker 1: I said, Okay, we've been wanting the big goal for him,
- 25:55Speaker 1: Garrett was the short and the intermediate route improvement. He says,
- 26:00Speaker 1: absolutely is it is improved, right, it is improved. So
- 26:06Speaker 1: with that being the case, I say everything in me
- 26:13Speaker 1: says go under this. I'm gonna go over just to
- 26:16Speaker 1: go over. I just feel like he's throwing the ball
- 26:19Speaker 1: extremely well, and whether they catch it or not, he's
- 26:22Speaker 1: doing his job. I'm gonna go.
- 26:24Speaker 2: Over, Brad. Great points by both of you.
- 26:29Speaker 3: So one of the things I was batting around is
- 26:32Speaker 3: I was trying to land on a side of this
- 26:34Speaker 3: that throwing the ball underneath and being better from a
- 26:37Speaker 3: completion percentage. I don't think there's any question that happens
- 26:40Speaker 3: this year, So that may limit some of those I
- 26:43Speaker 3: was down the field because I do think that's better,
- 26:47Speaker 3: and I think the offense will continue to be really good,
- 26:49Speaker 3: but it may not look as is explosive last year
- 26:52Speaker 3: because you're better underneath and your receivers do a better
- 26:55Speaker 3: job of getting open underneath. So those underneath patterns may
- 26:59Speaker 3: be a little more open and even than they were
- 27:01Speaker 3: last year. It's just the numbers tell you go under.
- 27:05Speaker 1: Can he make three big time throws a game?
- 27:07Speaker 2: Get canny? Yeah, that's thirty nine.
- 27:09Speaker 3: But do you think defenses have access to this information too?
- 27:12Speaker 3: Are they aware that West Virginia like to go deep
- 27:14Speaker 3: and that Garrett's really good at throwing it deep. They're
- 27:17Speaker 3: probably aware of that as well. But I think the
- 27:19Speaker 3: receiver group, being more experienced, is ahead of where it
- 27:22Speaker 3: was last year. And you still had a number like this.
- 27:25Speaker 3: I'm kind of with you. I think the play would
- 27:28Speaker 3: be if this were a real number at a book,
- 27:30Speaker 3: professional gamblers would be screaming at you if you took
- 27:33Speaker 3: the over right, say like the under anyway, Unders probably
- 27:36Speaker 3: the way to go, because it would be not only
- 27:38Speaker 3: an historic season last year, he'd be backing it up
- 27:41Speaker 3: with another historic season. That's hard for anybody. I don't
- 27:43Speaker 3: care who you are, but I think he's a lot
- 27:47Speaker 3: better this year too. I think he's improved a ton
- 27:49Speaker 3: as good as he was last year. I think he's
- 27:51Speaker 3: going to be a better quarterback.
- 27:52Speaker 2: Than what he was.
- 27:53Speaker 3: I'm gonna I'm gonna echo what you said. It's probably
- 27:57Speaker 3: not the right move. The numbers probably tell you to
- 27:59Speaker 3: go under. I'm gonna go over. Some of that's maybe
- 28:02Speaker 3: speaking into existence, but I'm gonna go over.
- 28:04Speaker 1: We'll find out.
- 28:05Speaker 2: Let's track that every game.
- 28:07Speaker 1: Oh, we got people, groups of people standing by, we.
- 28:10Speaker 2: Talk about it. Yeah, I got it.
- 28:12Speaker 1: We will. Yeah.
- 28:13Speaker 3: So you'll say, I want to be wrong by the way, Well,
- 28:16Speaker 3: I understand that says this isn't about this isn't about
- 28:19Speaker 3: your support of Garrett Green. You think he's a wonderful
- 28:21Speaker 3: dude and very quarterback. It's just this is why we
- 28:23Speaker 3: try and look at the numbers. You try and take
- 28:25Speaker 3: a little emotion out of it, which I did not do.
- 28:27Speaker 3: I did not take the motion out of it.
- 28:29Speaker 2: You know I did, because I was about to say,
- 28:31Speaker 2: I'm a fanboy and I'm going over you know, fifty.
- 28:33Speaker 2: But the play is under If.
- 28:36Speaker 3: He turns around with another season like this and get
- 28:39Speaker 3: gets over thirty in the top five, that's amazing. It
- 28:42Speaker 3: was amazing what he did last year. And again this
- 28:44Speaker 3: is one number. There'll be more as we go on
- 28:46Speaker 3: in this program. There's other things you can look at
- 28:48Speaker 3: with Garrett that weren't just hey, that was a really
- 28:50Speaker 3: good West Virginia starting quarterback, or that was a really
- 28:52Speaker 3: good Big twelve quarterback. He had a national elite level
- 28:56Speaker 3: season last year. He really should guys, listen, now I'm
- 28:58Speaker 3: gonna get killed from all the people that say we're
- 29:00Speaker 3: area in the water for the front. He should be
- 29:02Speaker 3: on a Heisman, a dark horse Heisman list this year
- 29:05Speaker 3: in my opinion now probably can't win it because you
- 29:08Speaker 3: got to play in the National Championship Game to be
- 29:09Speaker 3: really in contention. The dude had a year like that
- 29:12Speaker 3: and returns and his better weapons, and it will be better.
- 29:15Speaker 3: He should be getting some dark Horse Heisman talk.
- 29:17Speaker 1: Absolutely for you guys before the games were Auto is
- 29:20Speaker 1: by Lou Wendell Marine Sales. They happen to be the
- 29:22Speaker 1: state's largest pontoon boat dealer here in the state of

- 29:48Speaker 1: at that bad boy. Yes, you just you feel like
- 29:50Speaker 1: a man when you're out there standing on top of
- 29:53Speaker 1: that thing. The key elements needed for an avid outdoorsman.
- 29:56Speaker 1: G three John's provide an array of all welded models
- 29:59Speaker 1: for to fishing everything in between. So besides the pontoons,
- 30:04Speaker 1: the Gator Tough John series. Take that billy of that boy.
- 30:08Speaker 1: G Three's at lou Wendell Marine Sales in Saint Albans.
- 30:15Speaker 1: Three guys also brought to us by Comac's Business Systems.
- 30:17Speaker 1: You know, I'm getting ready to get in my heavy
- 30:19Speaker 1: print mode. Yeah, a lot of printing. I do a
- 30:21Speaker 1: lot of printing. Brade does a lot of printing this
- 30:23Speaker 1: time of the year. Matter of fact, when we come
- 30:25Speaker 1: in here with textual healing, I just beat the hell
- 30:28Speaker 1: out up for a printer upstairs, like I print so
- 30:31Speaker 1: many shoots. Printer comes back a dialogue message that says, serious, dude,
- 30:35Speaker 1: that's how many sheets I print. Well, if you need
- 30:37Speaker 1: business equipment, Comac's Business Systems got you covered, and plus
- 30:41Speaker 1: remote monitoring of all of your IT services and digital
- 30:44Speaker 1: phone systems. If you're a business owner and need a
- 30:47Speaker 1: digital phone system, we strongly encourage you just to give
- 30:50Speaker 1: them a call and get a price quote. It's free
- 30:53Speaker 1: and any way you need to get it, whether you
- 30:55Speaker 1: need to lease, buy, purchase, whatever, whatever we want to do, rent,
- 30:58Speaker 1: they got it. It's Comac dot Com all right over
- 31:03Speaker 1: under number two. Okay, here we get let's talk these
- 31:05Speaker 1: about all these become basically, these have become calculus equation.
- 31:08Speaker 2: It's hard to top number one, but you go, all right,
- 31:12Speaker 2: let's talk offense. Still.
- 31:15Speaker 3: Tight end touchdown catches, Oh boy, we love having this discussion.
- 31:21Speaker 3: Cole Taylor will have five and a half touchdown catches
- 31:26Speaker 3: in twenty twenty four, over or under five and a
- 31:31Speaker 3: half touchdown catches for Cole Taylor last year. Taylor had
- 31:35Speaker 3: four last season, and I'm not sure a big enough
- 31:38Speaker 3: deal was made about him getting to four that led
- 31:41Speaker 3: the team, but it was the most touchdown catches by
- 31:44Speaker 3: a West Virginia tight end since nineteen ninety nine. That's
- 31:49Speaker 3: a quarter of a century, most touchdown catches by a
- 31:52Speaker 3: tight end hop since ninety nine. Our buddy Anthony Beck
- 31:56Speaker 3: had five in nineteen ninety nine. There were eight touchdown
- 32:02Speaker 3: catches for tight ends over the previous ten seasons. Prior
- 32:06Speaker 3: to last year, tight ends only had two touchdown catches
- 32:10Speaker 3: since Neil arrived.
- 32:12Speaker 1: Is that that's a heck of a step.
- 32:14Speaker 3: Yeah, Now you can see how much more valuable it's becoming,
- 32:16Speaker 3: and they have the personnel to do so.
- 32:18Speaker 1: There literally weren't any tight ends right when you take
- 32:21Speaker 1: the program.
- 32:21Speaker 3: That's part of why that number looks like it does.
- 32:24Speaker 3: There just weren't a lot of tight ends on the schedule.
- 32:26Speaker 3: You started to see a resurgence of this with Trayvon
- 32:28Speaker 3: Wesco in twenty eighteen, but that team just had so
- 32:31Speaker 3: many other weapons to catch touchdowns. So Trayvon had two
- 32:34Speaker 3: catches in twenty eighteen, Cody Clay had two and twenty thirteen.
- 32:37Speaker 3: Tyler Urban had two touchdown catches in eight and eleven.
- 32:41Speaker 3: Will Johnson had two back in twenty ten. Tory Johnson
- 32:44Speaker 3: had two in two thousand and two. So getting to
- 32:47Speaker 3: four was actually a really big number for this.
- 32:51Speaker 1: Neil got here tight end room in the building over there,
- 32:54Speaker 1: pushcar Center locked said closed for the season, didn't have
- 32:58Speaker 1: anyone in it. Now they got a ton if a
- 33:01Speaker 1: ton of guys.
- 33:02Speaker 3: If Taylor goes over that five and a half number,
- 33:04Speaker 3: that'd be the most since Love It. Parnell put up
- 33:07Speaker 3: six in ninety.
- 33:08Speaker 2: Five lone reference Love Love It.
- 33:10Speaker 3: So Taylor trying to get into Anthony Beck's category, who
- 33:13Speaker 3: went that had the five and ninety nine. He also
- 33:15Speaker 3: had four in nineteen ninety eight. Some more context. Jack
- 33:21Speaker 3: Telling from Oregon State and Jared Wiley from TCU led
- 33:25Speaker 3: the NCAA's and tight end reception touchdown receptions last season,
- 33:29Speaker 3: they each had eight. There were only five college tight
- 33:33Speaker 3: ends that had more than six receptions. There were seven
- 33:37Speaker 3: that had exactly six.
- 33:39Speaker 2: So what's that.
- 33:39Speaker 3: You're talking about twelve dudes that had six or more
- 33:43Speaker 3: touchouts in the tight end position. So that's elite company.
- 33:46Speaker 3: If Cole can get there. Five and a half touchdown
- 33:49Speaker 3: catches for Taylor over or under.
- 33:53Speaker 1: You are very mean, very mean person, Hoppy.
- 33:58Speaker 2: I'll go under for this for these reasons. One is
- 34:04Speaker 2: it's it's a big number. You know, five and a half.
- 34:06Speaker 2: They got to get to six. The fact that Anthony Beck,
- 34:09Speaker 2: who played in the National Football League and was I
- 34:12Speaker 2: think a first round draft pick. The fact that Anthony
- 34:14Speaker 2: Beck had six what five or six in nineteen ninety
- 34:18Speaker 2: nine with Mark Bulger throw into him. You know that
- 34:21Speaker 2: gives me pause. And you got other You got other
- 34:23Speaker 2: guys that can score touchdowns. I mean, Garrett Green can
- 34:25Speaker 2: run it in. You got running backs that can run
- 34:28Speaker 2: it in, or you can throw it the CJ. Donaldson.
- 34:29Speaker 2: You got better receivers. So for those reasons, I'm going
- 34:33Speaker 2: under five and a half.
- 34:40Speaker 1: Yeah, yep, that's a good number. That's a number, great number. Yeah,
- 34:47Speaker 1: it's a great number.
- 34:49Speaker 3: Four had four in his first season in the offense
- 34:52Speaker 3: and Green's first season as a starter. Now, now their roommates,
- 34:55Speaker 3: aren't they Garrett cole roommates this year?
- 34:57Speaker 1: That was gonna that is figuring to be a very
- 35:00Speaker 1: heavy piece of my.
- 35:01Speaker 2: Thought connection even stronger.
- 35:04Speaker 1: Well, yeah, hey, dude, when we get down here, give
- 35:06Speaker 1: me a little give me a little loving. But that's
- 35:09Speaker 1: why they brought in Justin Robinson. That's why they brought
- 35:12Speaker 1: in Jaden Bray. Once they get into I mean, they
- 35:14Speaker 1: have worked tirelessly inside the red zone this entire camp.
- 35:19Speaker 1: They want to They don't want field.
- 35:21Speaker 2: Goals anymore, touch down percentage, needs to want touchdowns. Huh.
- 35:24Speaker 3: Okay, stay on that Stay on that line we talk
- 35:27Speaker 3: about all the time. What's the offensive line look like
- 35:29Speaker 3: when it gets down tight? Does it have the ability
- 35:32Speaker 3: to move people when they want to? Or are you
- 35:34Speaker 3: going to have to throw it a few more times?
- 35:36Speaker 3: Down close? A six seven dude there in the back
- 35:39Speaker 3: of the end zone. Pretty good target.
- 35:40Speaker 1: Well, I've seen it.
- 35:41Speaker 2: He gobbles a target like an octopus.
- 35:44Speaker 3: It's only two more touchdowns than he had last year.
- 35:50Speaker 1: Wow, again, my body and my soul within me tells me,
- 35:54Speaker 1: go under, go under, go under. However, you know, not
- 36:00Speaker 1: everything that he scores as a touchdown has to be
- 36:04Speaker 1: within the goal. I mean that's also true. I mean
- 36:06Speaker 1: it could be a thirty seven yard down the scene. Sure,
- 36:09Speaker 1: an he runs right down the field, salid point right,
- 36:12Speaker 1: So it doesn't have to be that.
- 36:13Speaker 2: I'm going over those safeties.
- 36:17Speaker 3: Some are gonna get sucked up because that running game
- 36:19Speaker 3: is still going though. Safeties are coming up in the front.
- 36:21Speaker 3: Just go right by him.
- 36:22Speaker 1: I'm pushing my dog on chips in. I'm just gonna
- 36:24Speaker 1: stay the hell with it. I'm going over five and
- 36:26Speaker 1: a half, even though it defies what I should be
- 36:28Speaker 1: doing for the second.
- 36:29Speaker 2: To see a trend.
- 36:30Speaker 1: Yeah, that'd be a good day to sell me a car.
- 36:34Speaker 1: Yeah whatever, that's fine. I gotta take it.
- 36:36Speaker 3: Be the most catches in thirty years.
- 36:38Speaker 1: I understand tight end, which means the tight ends. Do
- 36:42Speaker 1: look at it the other way?
- 36:43Speaker 3: Well, you know, he was such a weft and and
- 36:45Speaker 3: I do think it takes a step forward this year.
- 36:48Speaker 3: I would like I would like to go with you again,
- 36:50Speaker 3: just like you said, because I'm gonna I'm gonna say under.
- 36:54Speaker 2: You guys trap me with the ultimated me.
- 36:56Speaker 3: With the ultimate tiebreaker, just being I think there is
- 36:59Speaker 3: there's just more, there's more options. I think there's more options.
- 37:04Speaker 2: Five.
- 37:05Speaker 3: Five would be a good number. Landing on five. I
- 37:07Speaker 3: think you find find that hook that I threw in there.
- 37:09Speaker 3: I think changes that.
- 37:10Speaker 1: Hook changes that the kills me.
- 37:13Speaker 2: Four and a half have gone over.
- 37:15Speaker 3: Yes, I'd have gone over in four because I think
- 37:16Speaker 3: five is totally reasonable. I won't be shocked if it's six.
- 37:20Speaker 3: But I'm gonna kind of like you said, I'll take
- 37:22Speaker 3: the field as you probably should do in most over unders.
- 37:24Speaker 2: You should generally play more unders. Give me an under.
- 37:27Speaker 1: Fine, least at least this is what we know when
- 37:31Speaker 1: we tally these up. There are going to be winners
- 37:33Speaker 1: and losers because last year we were all together on
- 37:36Speaker 1: a bunch of them. So this year we have a
- 37:38Speaker 1: diverse yes nos over unders. So someone's someone's going to
- 37:43Speaker 1: get ridiculed. Might be me, I just let's do it,
- 37:47Speaker 1: or you.
- 37:47Speaker 2: Maybe you can just spike the ball too.
- 37:49Speaker 1: Maybe I sat with his dad at the scrimmage last Saturday,
- 37:51Speaker 1: so I just have a just I'm with.
- 37:54Speaker 2: Him, all right. The heart has its reason, which reason
- 37:56Speaker 2: does not know it's okay, Yeah, all right, that was
- 37:59Speaker 2: a good one too. Yeah, it was making these a
- 38:01Speaker 2: little hard, Dude, he's supposed to. I'll try and give
- 38:03Speaker 2: you an easier one.
- 38:04Speaker 1: Is this the last one?
- 38:05Speaker 2: Yeah? Last one I got. I got an addendum. Excuse me,
- 38:09Speaker 2: that's told Brad you want to do it now or
- 38:10Speaker 2: when I'm done with this one, when you're done. Okay,
- 38:13Speaker 2: here's the third one. I won't be as lengthy on
- 38:15Speaker 2: this one because this is this is really a number.
- 38:18Speaker 2: We don't talk about a lot, but we did last year,
- 38:22Speaker 2: and this is defensive back pass breakups. Defensive back pass breakups.
- 38:29Speaker 2: We're going to use Pro Football Focus numbers on this
- 38:32Speaker 2: to stay consistent because there were there seemed to be
- 38:34Speaker 2: quite a bit of variance between West Virginia stats pro
- 38:37Speaker 2: Football Focused stats. So we'll just we'll keep it consistent.
- 38:40Speaker 2: Go what awf of what Pro Football Focus says?
- 38:42Speaker 3: Okay, okay, And part of that's because I heard and
- 38:45Speaker 3: I don't remember who it was, Tony. One of the
- 38:46Speaker 3: coach interviews we had since camp open mentioned how Beanie
- 38:51Speaker 3: had ten pass breakups in his four years before arriving here.
- 38:55Speaker 3: Twenty plus, right, So that's a different number than Pro
- 39:00Speaker 3: Football Focus hat. That's why I said there's some variant.
- 39:02Speaker 3: So stay with me on this. Pro Football Focus listed
- 39:05Speaker 3: Beanie last year as West Virginia's leader with fourteen. To
- 39:08Speaker 3: give some historical perspective to the leader for West Virginia
- 39:12Speaker 3: in twenty twenty two, it was Malachi Ruffin with four
- 39:15Speaker 3: twenty one four, Daryl Porter twenty twenty nine, Dreyshawn Miller
- 39:20Speaker 3: twenty nineteen, ten, Hakeem Bailey twenty eighteen, nine, Josh Norwood.
- 39:25Speaker 3: You got to go back to twenty sixteen to get
- 39:27Speaker 3: another double digit number. That was eleven from Rasul Douglas
- 39:30Speaker 3: who played in the league the year before that twenty fifteen.
- 39:34Speaker 3: Another eleven is the team leader with Darryl Worley, a
- 39:37Speaker 3: guy that played in the league. So let's talk past breakups.
- 39:40Speaker 3: This year, west Virginia's team leader, you don't have to
- 39:43Speaker 3: identify who it will be. West Virginia's team leader will
- 39:48Speaker 3: have at least well, we'll have eight and a half
- 39:53Speaker 3: pass breakups over or under eight and a half Pbu's
- 39:59Speaker 3: what did Beanie have last year per Pro Football Focus fourteen.
- 40:05Speaker 3: So you've gone you've gone over this number. One, two,
- 40:09Speaker 3: three four times in the last six seasons.
- 40:15Speaker 2: Okay, so the numbers eight and a half, numbers eight
- 40:19Speaker 2: and a half, and you want to go all right,
- 40:22Speaker 2: I'm gonna go over. I'm gonna go over because I
- 40:25Speaker 2: think I think one eight and a half is reachable.
- 40:30Speaker 2: Number two is that I think this team's going to
- 40:32Speaker 2: be pretty good, which means what bred you might be
- 40:36Speaker 2: ahead in some games. Maybe other teams got to throw
- 40:39Speaker 2: the ball a little bit more. If you get ahead
- 40:40Speaker 2: in games, maybe you have more opportunities for past breakups.
- 40:44Speaker 2: You got a lot of quarterbacks in this league throwing
- 40:46Speaker 2: the ball around, so you might just have more chances.
- 40:48Speaker 2: I'm going over at eight and a half. Go ahead, Brad,
- 40:56Speaker 2: No you go. I want to hear your thoughts.
- 40:59Speaker 1: I'd like to love to hear yours. First.
- 41:02Speaker 2: Tony Spook now it.
- 41:03Speaker 3: Doesn't want Beanie had an unbelievable season, Yes, at fourteen,
- 41:07Speaker 3: an unbelievable season. We've heard all off season and through
- 41:11Speaker 3: camp they feel like they got some some good corners
- 41:14Speaker 3: here in specifically corners.
- 41:16Speaker 1: Head coach told me today best corners since he's been here.
- 41:20Speaker 3: Wow, Garnett Hollis has done it at this level on a.
- 41:24Speaker 2: Really good defense. But will they throw at him enough?
- 41:28Speaker 3: Last year, teams kept throwing at Beanie Bishop All It
- 41:31Speaker 3: didn't trail part of why he got to that ridiculous number.
- 41:34Speaker 3: They just kept testing it. Why they'd look at the
- 41:36Speaker 3: film every week. So we're gonna go a Beani Bishop
- 41:38Speaker 3: Beani Bishess.
- 41:39Speaker 2: I'm on bringing on with you. I'm not gonna la.
- 41:41Speaker 2: I'm just keep knocking him down.
- 41:43Speaker 3: Let him rite toensus All American season right, because they
- 41:46Speaker 3: wouldn't stop.
- 41:47Speaker 2: They kept going at him. You may run off the line,
- 41:49Speaker 2: but you're gonna limp back.
- 41:52Speaker 3: Do they throw at Garns and Hollis consistently enough? Do
- 41:56Speaker 3: they spread that a little bit? You're gonna get some
- 41:59Speaker 3: teams that run high up. You're gonna get some teams
- 42:01Speaker 3: that run. What's Penn State gonna do to you? The
- 42:03Speaker 3: un they gonna throw it forty five times? Probably Pitt
- 42:06Speaker 3: probably can't throw it forty five times. Kansas they'll do
- 42:09Speaker 3: a little both. Oklahoma State they're gonna run it and
- 42:12Speaker 3: probably throw a lot of deep balls down there. Rock
- 42:15Speaker 3: o'beck will take some shots on you. At Iowa State.
- 42:17Speaker 3: Avery Johnson running ahead of passing. Maybe at this point
- 42:20Speaker 3: they're gonna want to grind you on the ground. Four
- 42:25Speaker 3: out of six years over.
- 42:27Speaker 2: Over, Brad good one do you guys go When do
- 42:30Speaker 2: you guys go under? He just went Brad went under? Okay, under?
- 42:34Speaker 3: Okay, because I think it's spread a little bit. I
- 42:37Speaker 3: don't think you'll I don't think there'll be one guy
- 42:41Speaker 3: that will get that many opportunities to get himself to nine.
- 42:45Speaker 1: I'm going under simply because my heart keeps telling me under,
- 42:48Speaker 1: and I went over twice, so I'm gonna go under.
- 42:51Speaker 1: Probably gonna behave myself. I'm gonna go under.
- 42:54Speaker 2: Okay, there it is. Those are good.
- 42:57Speaker 3: Well, there's are three over unders for part.
- 43:00Speaker 2: To somebody's gotta get somebody's keeping track, not us on
- 43:02Speaker 2: the series of who did what so we can check right.
- 43:05Speaker 3: We want to be a fun number to watch the
- 43:06Speaker 3: season too. You want to talk Garrett's big Time Thursday.
- 43:08Speaker 3: I think that number will be fun to watch because
- 43:10Speaker 3: what what I tried to do in these is get
- 43:12Speaker 3: areas of this team that we think are going to
- 43:14Speaker 3: be really important to wins and losses. Those defensive backs
- 43:17Speaker 3: are a critical piece of this now just because they
- 43:21Speaker 3: go under a number of pass preak Cups. Doesn't mean
- 43:23Speaker 3: they've had a tremendous season. In fact, I might indicate
- 43:25Speaker 3: they've had a really good.
- 43:26Speaker 2: Yeah right, yes, Or it could indicate that people are
- 43:29Speaker 2: throwing it on you and you get more chances. I mean,
- 43:31Speaker 2: it's just you don't know.
- 43:34Speaker 1: So here's my Oh yeah, you got to you gotta
- 43:37Speaker 1: do a DM And and addendum is that yes or no?
- 43:45Speaker 2: By December one a credible sports journalism entity.
- 43:51Speaker 1: I'm talking like Pete themmil. Go ahead, yeah, go ahead.
- 43:55Speaker 1: What's Pete saying?
- 43:56Speaker 2: Pete Themil, there will be a story out a coaching
- 44:00Speaker 2: search and Neil Brown will be mentioned as a possible candidate.
- 44:04Speaker 2: I'm not saying he will be, but I'm saying that
- 44:07Speaker 2: he will be mentioned as a candidate in a coaching
- 44:10Speaker 2: search story by December first, Yes or no? Say that
- 44:15Speaker 2: again that in a credible I'm not talking about a blog.
- 44:18Speaker 2: I'm talking about Pete Damill or ESPN or CBS Sports
- 44:22Speaker 2: or The Athletic that by December first, there will be
- 44:25Speaker 2: a story about a coaching search because of vacancy, because
- 44:28Speaker 2: now we fire people all year long, there will be
- 44:30Speaker 2: a coaching search and that story will mention Neil Brown
- 44:34Speaker 2: as a possible candidate. I'm not saying he is or
- 44:36Speaker 2: will be, but his name will be mentioned in the
- 44:38Speaker 2: story yes or no.
- 44:41Speaker 1: By the way he described that question and gave the
- 44:44Speaker 1: like Coach Bowden, he gave like you came back.
- 44:47Speaker 2: Around the second time.
- 44:48Speaker 1: Now, what I'm saying is now by December first, he
- 44:52Speaker 1: will be mentioned by a credible search.
- 44:55Speaker 3: Now that means, h well, I I tend to be
- 45:02Speaker 3: bullish on this team and think they're going to have
- 45:04Speaker 3: a good year. Now, how do we define that? What's
- 45:07Speaker 3: that mean? That remains to be seen. We'll keep talking about.
- 45:09Speaker 3: I think they go over their six and a half wins.
- 45:11Speaker 3: I think they're in the midd they're certainly in a bowl.
- 45:13Speaker 3: I think they're going to be in the mix as
- 45:14Speaker 3: they get down the season, which if you've done that
- 45:17Speaker 3: and in back to back seasons, and I think they
- 45:22Speaker 3: I think the answers yes, yes, yeah, I think I
- 45:25Speaker 3: think that's yes. Because and also part of this is
- 45:27Speaker 3: it doesn't mean Neil Brown has interested in at the job.
- 45:30Speaker 3: It simply means the people putting those lists together aren't
- 45:34Speaker 3: a lot of times even being given candidates from a
- 45:37Speaker 3: from a school. They're putting together people that have had
- 45:40Speaker 3: good years at schools they think, so, yeah, I think
- 45:42Speaker 3: I think that can have to me. All that takes
- 45:45Speaker 3: is West Virginia having another good season and he's gonna
- 45:48Speaker 3: be on a list.
- 45:48Speaker 2: That's it. Yeah, So you're a yes, Tony, I'm a yes.
- 45:51Speaker 2: You're a yes.
- 45:52Speaker 1: Ye, I'm a yes two all three yeses.
- 45:56Speaker 2: On that it wasn't a very good question over under
- 45:58Speaker 2: brought to us by you Buy November two, twenty second.
- 46:00Speaker 1: Conley's CPA group providing value beyond numbers Comdy CPA group.
- 46:06Speaker 3: Well, that would be interesting if you had changed the date,
- 46:08Speaker 3: because then it's going to be referenced that. Then I
- 46:11Speaker 3: may say no because it's going to be less schools
- 46:14Speaker 3: that have an opening. Yes, less likely, smaller window to
- 46:18Speaker 3: fit in. But I saw that if he's if this
- 46:20Speaker 3: program is having a good year, he's going to get mentioned.
- 46:22Speaker 2: That's just the.
- 46:22Speaker 3: World you live in is either this You're either going
- 46:25Speaker 3: to be fired and you're on the hot seat, or
- 46:28Speaker 3: you're mentioned for another job.
- 46:30Speaker 2: There there is no in between.
- 46:32Speaker 3: There is no that Hey, you're really building, you're doing
- 46:34Speaker 3: a nice job, you got the program in the right
- 46:35Speaker 3: right there are there is none of that there's no
- 46:37Speaker 3: room for nuance in coaches. It's either you're out and
- 46:40Speaker 3: he's getting fired, or you're going on to another place.
- 46:43Speaker 2: That's it. There's only to option. There might be a
- 46:45Speaker 2: story the first week in September says that when coaches
- 46:49Speaker 2: do get fired. Here are some of the names.
- 46:53Speaker 1: Yeah, they're all over that. You know, Tutors sells more
- 46:56Speaker 1: than biscuits. Excuse me, Tutors, they sell more than biscuits,

- 53:28Speaker 1: contributions from students to help them get some experience. They're
- 53:31Speaker 1: the future, right they aren't. Robots are the future. But

- 58:34Speaker 1: It's a full page andy from Parkersburg. Too long, Oh man,
- 58:42Speaker 1: I'll just give you, just give. The football staff really
- 58:46Speaker 1: appears to be living off the disrespect matter of last
- 58:48Speaker 1: year that was so effective, and now this year it's
- 58:50Speaker 1: being overlooked yet again. It feels like the difference being
- 58:54Speaker 1: this year. I see coach knows that his job is safe.
- 58:56Speaker 1: He knows he's got a real contender in the locker room.
- 58:58Speaker 1: Not sure if you guys see the same attitude changer
- 59:00Speaker 1: if it's just me, has always loved the show and
- 59:02Speaker 1: let's go Mountaineers. What he said basically was he could
- 59:06Speaker 1: just tell that Neil is confident in his press conferences
- 59:10Speaker 1: and bouncy Charlie from mid Lothian rites Tony. I think
- 59:15Speaker 1: I achieved a first on your Monday podcast on two
- 59:18Speaker 1: different occasions, Sandridge sandwiched around your eye surgery discussion. You
- 59:23Speaker 1: started with Charlie from Midlothian but never said anything after
- 59:27Speaker 1: getting sidetracked.
- 59:28Speaker 2: Imagine then probably the.
- 59:30Speaker 1: Ouch text where Kroger came in way ahead of our
- 59:33Speaker 1: fuel purchase that day. I thought about texting because I
- 59:35Speaker 1: had noticed that your eyes looking very different and hope
- 59:38Speaker 1: nothing serious was going. I'm glad that it was elective.
- 59:41Speaker 2: Ten years younger. You have ten years younger from that
- 59:43Speaker 2: plastic surgery.
- 59:44Speaker 1: Let me just tell you about how crazy that is.
- 59:46Speaker 1: I've had two people contact me now since we talked
- 59:49Speaker 1: about that, Yeah, wanting to know they got to get
- 59:52Speaker 1: it done themselves. Their doctors also done. Not so I'm
- 59:54Speaker 1: just right now I'm recommending doctors. Really, so I'm selling
- 59:57Speaker 1: go back to your doctors. Should be a sponsor of
- 59:59Speaker 1: the podcast. He's a good guy. I saw him yesterday.
- 1:00:01Speaker 2: Trying to do an eye influencer.
- 1:00:03Speaker 1: Yeah, and so basically we're selling funions, recy cups, gas
- 1:00:08Speaker 1: and eye procedures.
- 1:00:10Speaker 3: Hi, I'm Tony Kreedy. I don't know I need an eye.
- 1:00:12Speaker 3: I mean we're talking about eye surgery. We can recommend that.
- 1:00:14Speaker 3: You don't think we do cooozies. You don't think those
- 1:00:16Speaker 3: are in the same category.
- 1:00:18Speaker 2: At different ends of the counter.
- 1:00:20Speaker 1: Texas says, I think read Karako, will.
- 1:00:22Speaker 2: You kaya kuzzi from somebody who's also doing eye surgery
- 1:00:26Speaker 2: or vice versa. I guess would you get eye surgery
- 1:00:28Speaker 2: from somebody's telling you a kouzzie? Buy a kuzzie and
- 1:00:33Speaker 2: get eye surgery, or get eye surgery and get a
- 1:00:34Speaker 2: free kuzzi.
- 1:00:35Speaker 1: My doctor said to me when I saw him yesterday,
- 1:00:37Speaker 1: do you go to Paris for the Olympics? No football, football, Tony.
- 1:00:43Speaker 1: I'm with you on officials wearing shorts. It doesn't affect
- 1:00:46Speaker 1: the calls, but it doesn't look like football. My crew,
- 1:00:50Speaker 1: my crew, regardless of the level of game, always wears
- 1:00:52Speaker 1: the full uniform. By the way, I'm in I'm in
- 1:00:55Speaker 1: Roe County right now. My family grew up there. I
- 1:00:57Speaker 1: fished mon CoV Moncove today over under? Will hopy make
- 1:01:02Speaker 1: five shows in a row?
- 1:01:03Speaker 2: Oh? Good numbers? Should have made it five and a half.
- 1:01:05Speaker 1: Yeah, yes it is. I love the show. Fred Fred
- 1:01:07Speaker 1: run say thank you?
- 1:01:08Speaker 2: Yes, you go over a five and a half. I
- 1:01:10Speaker 2: got over okay, thank you?
- 1:01:11Speaker 1: Hey, Tony? Are the lights at the stadium that much better?
- 1:01:14Speaker 1: Or is it because you had your eyelids lifted?
- 1:01:19Speaker 2: A good great question, that's a good one. I can see.
- 1:01:23Speaker 1: Is that the fifty we tell Coach Scott and Coach
- 1:01:26Speaker 1: Brown to bring back the statue of Liberty. I didn't
- 1:01:28Speaker 1: know they stole it. Same guys that pulled off that
- 1:01:34Speaker 1: Jackie Robinson heist. Hey three guys. Previous episode, Brad said
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: that someone tallied the twenty twenty three over Unders. I
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: don't remember ever hearing them. So I went back and
- 1:01:45Speaker 1: I listened to those two episodes again. I think I
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: calculated the results. There's no suspense in the outcome, though,
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: because you jack Wagons all made the same pitch for
- 1:01:54Speaker 1: every there it is. Look, he went back for every category. Well,
- 1:01:57Speaker 1: at least Brad and Tony did. Hopy was m I
- 1:01:59Speaker 1: A for the second episode of over Unders. I recently
- 1:02:03Speaker 1: got dumped mine by girlfriends, so I should have plenty
- 1:02:05Speaker 1: of time to keep up this coming season on the
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: over Unders. If you would like, I can send a
- 1:02:09Speaker 1: progress report after every third game regarding how each one
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: is trendy. I love the show and no offense met
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: and referring to you all as Jackwagons.
- 1:02:18Speaker 2: About the relationships, send it over under on your dating.
- 1:02:21Speaker 1: Then he came back and said, correction, Brad and Tony
- 1:02:24Speaker 1: got five out of the six. The Cole Taylor TD
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: category was marked wrong. That's what I get for trying
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: to cook and calculate results at the same time. I
- 1:02:31Speaker 1: guess I'm a jackwagon too, JD.
- 1:02:34Speaker 2: Two things.
- 1:02:34Speaker 1: One, sorry about the girlfriend's situation, but if it wasn't
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: meant to be. Yep, it wasn't meant to be. However,
- 1:02:39Speaker 1: we will accept your offer of updating us on the
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: over unders as the season goes on. Texter says, Hey, guys, Brian.
- 1:02:49Speaker 3: From Taylor touchdowns back to back? Heres we did Cole
- 1:02:53Speaker 3: Taylor touchdowns back to back?
- 1:02:54Speaker 2: Heres? What was it last year? Do you remember the.
- 1:02:57Speaker 3: Number was down? It was No, I don't. I couldn't
- 1:02:59Speaker 3: see that sheet. There's probably one and a half or
- 1:03:01Speaker 3: two and a half. It's probably down in the good
- 1:03:03Speaker 3: that number.
- 1:03:04Speaker 1: Brian and Williamstown. These Romney Peaches are taking over the
- 1:03:07Speaker 1: day I listened to you guys talking about them. We
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: have a truck in Williamstown, of all places, selling Romney
- 1:03:12Speaker 1: peaches right off the highway.
- 1:03:13Speaker 2: Of course they do.
- 1:03:14Speaker 1: I'd love to know that what the connection is the
- 1:03:16Speaker 1: next time that they're here as to why they make
- 1:03:18Speaker 1: the trip all the way across the state to sell
- 1:03:20Speaker 1: those bad boys. They also sell them across the river
- 1:03:23Speaker 1: in Ohio and Marietta. I bought some from Witton's and
- 1:03:27Speaker 1: I'm waiting for them to ripen, so I hope they're
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: as good as advertised. One important thing, I haven't been
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: this excited for Mountaineer football in years. I finally got
- 1:03:36Speaker 1: season tickets for the first time. I'm bringing my dad
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: with me to the Penn State game. We're making the
- 1:03:40Speaker 1: trip up from Knoxville. Last West Virginia game he attended

- 1:03:54Speaker 1: guys all had a great summer. With Tutors now being

- 1:03:59Speaker 1: the listeners. Here is my off the menu. This is
- 1:04:02Speaker 1: what he orders when he goes through tea already. Yes,
- 1:04:06Speaker 1: yes's gonna help you. Yeah. I want a fried chicken biscuit.
- 1:04:10Speaker 1: Add hash browns, add melted cheese, add bacon, add a
- 1:04:14Speaker 1: fried egg. You pair that with a Sunday afternoon nap.
- 1:04:19Speaker 1: Obligatory legal disclaimer, probably best to avoid operating the heavy
- 1:04:23Speaker 1: machinery after consuming that. Cheers, boys, Thanks for all you do. Sincerely,
- 1:04:28Speaker 1: Connor Charlotte.
- 1:04:29Speaker 2: Sounds good. I like that one. Yeah, it nap fits
- 1:04:32Speaker 2: right in there too.
- 1:04:34Speaker 1: Doug in Bridgeport. Not that I need credit, but I
- 1:04:37Speaker 1: was the one Brad referred to as doing the over
- 1:04:39Speaker 1: under recap at the end of the season. This year's
- 1:04:42Speaker 1: first over under number of carries has easily twenty variables
- 1:04:46Speaker 1: that could affect the number. I may take the time
- 1:04:49Speaker 1: to list them. No, not really, not interested, Brad, did
- 1:04:52Speaker 1: you get preseason? More likely I sent you last week.
- 1:04:55Speaker 1: There may be some fodder in there to fit into
- 1:04:57Speaker 1: your over under scheme. I send it in messenger orfer
- 1:05:00Speaker 1: I'll text it.
- 1:05:01Speaker 3: Yeah, oh that's Doug into Bridgeport. Yeah, Doug text to
- 1:05:04Speaker 3: the text line if you would.
- 1:05:05Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 1:05:07Speaker 1: So now people are helping you out on these things. Well.
- 1:05:11Speaker 3: More likely something we do in during sports line. Yeah, oh,
- 1:05:14Speaker 3: ex usually a Thursday sports line show. Which of these
- 1:05:18Speaker 3: two things is more likely to happen during the game?
- 1:05:21Speaker 3: Kind of a fun extra. Yeah that's good, A little
- 1:05:23Speaker 3: twist on the over under. Yes, it's a good different
- 1:05:25Speaker 3: way to approach the game analysis. More likely Doug and
- 1:05:29Speaker 3: Bridgeport contributes occasionally. He does a good job with them.
- 1:05:32Speaker 1: That's good.
- 1:05:34Speaker 2: Oh this is wild. Look at this, dude, right, look
- 1:05:36Speaker 2: at this? Well, look watch this. Do you just go away?
- 1:05:40Speaker 1: Someone just took them. Someone took the computer over. You
- 1:05:44Speaker 1: know we're recording. We have obviously they don't. I'll show
- 1:05:48Speaker 1: them a thing or two. Hey, here's another mountaineer connection
- 1:05:51Speaker 1: for you. I was born and raised in Spencer, went
- 1:05:55Speaker 1: to Spencer High School. Go Yellowjackets. I live in North Carolina.
- 1:05:58Speaker 1: Last month I ran my thirteenth marathon in my thirteenth state.
- 1:06:02Speaker 2: Awesome.
- 1:06:03Speaker 1: This one was in Missoula, Montana.
- 1:06:06Speaker 2: We haven't done that well.
- 1:06:07Speaker 1: I always proudly wear my tattered, well worn West Virginia
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: running hat at every marathon, Mesa, Duluth, Big Sir, New
- 1:06:16Speaker 1: York City to name a few, every single race, no
- 1:06:19Speaker 1: matter where I go, it always gets to let's go
- 1:06:20Speaker 1: mountaineers from the spectators. After last months Montana marathon, the
- 1:06:25Speaker 1: wife and I went to Yellowstone I met dozens of
- 1:06:27Speaker 1: fellow mountaineers all over the park. It's true, we are everywhere.
- 1:06:30Speaker 1: I plan to continue to run marathons as long as
- 1:06:32Speaker 1: my now sixty three year old body allows me in
- 1:06:36Speaker 1: my West Virginia hat. There he is awesome, will always
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: be a part of it. Love three guys, always listen.
- 1:06:41Speaker 1: Jim and Gastonia, North Carolina forever a mountaineer. Great job, Jim,
- 1:06:46Speaker 1: that's standing Hoppy sixty three years old.

- 1:06:52Speaker 3: always one.
- 1:06:52Speaker 2: Yeah, impressive.
- 1:06:55Speaker 1: Texter. When I met Mary Rausch, the former Mountaineer, a
- 1:06:58Speaker 1: couple of years ago, when she was the mascot, she
- 1:07:00Speaker 1: told me that she had four hundred to five hundred
- 1:07:03Speaker 1: events planned and it wasn't uncommon to do three or
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: four events a day as the Mountaineer. I saw Brayden's
- 1:07:10Speaker 1: last Instagram post and apparently he went on a bus
- 1:07:14Speaker 1: to all seventeen Jefferson County schools on the same day.
- 1:07:18Speaker 1: My goodness, that's that's Unbelievable's yeah, compared to Notre Dame,
- 1:07:21Speaker 1: they've got four leprechauns, do they really? Apparently each year
- 1:07:25Speaker 1: the Mountaineer really gets out there and does That's why
- 1:07:27Speaker 1: it's such a prestigious position.
- 1:07:28Speaker 2: Joe and Charles Aman Joe hard gig, Yes, it is
- 1:07:33Speaker 2: hard gig.
- 1:07:34Speaker 1: All right, let me get this one. Let me read
- 1:07:36Speaker 1: this quick. I travel internationally. I go from Brazil to England,
- 1:07:39Speaker 1: Norway to Australia. Everyone knows country Roads. One of the
- 1:07:41Speaker 1: most memorable occurred in Japan. One day, guy took me
- 1:07:44Speaker 1: out to a karaoke bar. Inevitably, it came to my turn.
- 1:07:48Speaker 1: My host introduced me and told him I was from
- 1:07:51Speaker 1: South Carolina. I asked him to tell the crowd that
- 1:07:54Speaker 1: while I live in South Carolina, I'm really from West Virginia,
- 1:07:57Speaker 1: to which I heard several people say country Roads. Of course,
- 1:08:01Speaker 1: that was the song I had chosen. I asked my
- 1:08:02Speaker 1: host to explain to the crowd that this was an
- 1:08:04Speaker 1: important song, West Virginia's anthem, and then we should all stand,
- 1:08:09Speaker 1: turn to the east and put our hand over our hearts.
- 1:08:13Speaker 1: After explaining this to the crowd, my house turned to
- 1:08:15Speaker 1: what he thought was the east and put his hand
- 1:08:17Speaker 1: over his heart. And as I watched the crowd, they
- 1:08:18Speaker 1: got out of their chairs. They turned in the same direction.
- 1:08:21Speaker 1: They put their hands over their heart, and the full
- 1:08:24Speaker 1: bar of non English speaking Japanese we belt out country Roads.
- 1:08:27Speaker 1: It's a memory I'll never forget. Paul from Fincastle well
- 1:08:32Speaker 1: played I bit.
- 1:08:33Speaker 2: So.

- 1:11:24Speaker 3: that he referenced would affect the over under rushing number.
- 1:11:29Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not reading that, Brad. You can just take

- 1:11:35Speaker 1: reasons why. Yeah, what's Doug do Brad contributes to the show.
- 1:11:41Speaker 1: How does he have time for this? Pretty good?

- 1:12:05Speaker 2: Pretty good?
- 1:12:05Speaker 1: Good, thank you.
- 1:12:07Speaker 2: He had a question in there at number eighteen about
- 1:12:10Speaker 2: Tayvon referencing Tavon Austin. Of course Tavon just retired. Yeah,
- 1:12:14Speaker 2: he had a what do you have? Nine years?
- 1:12:16Speaker 1: Yeah, Hunter brought up that he is the most receiving
- 1:12:19Speaker 1: yards of any former mountaineer in NFL history.
- 1:12:22Speaker 2: Really, yeah, so that's I mean, that's a good run.
- 1:12:25Speaker 2: Nine years. That's a great run. Absolutely, it's a great run.
- 1:12:27Speaker 3: We said on the show the other night, though, hop
- 1:12:29Speaker 3: just wish he would have been at a place at
- 1:12:32Speaker 3: a time that could have used him properly to showcase
- 1:12:36Speaker 3: those skills, because he he had some amazing highlight hush
- 1:12:39Speaker 3: he Pat. I was watching Pat the other day McAfee
- 1:12:42Speaker 3: and he was talking about I had missed this, that
- 1:12:46Speaker 3: one of Tavon's punt returns for touchdowns in the NFL
- 1:12:49Speaker 3: came off a McAfee punt and it was a ninety
- 1:12:53Speaker 3: nine yard return. Really yeah, and Pat was funny. I
- 1:12:56Speaker 3: mean he that was a great punt. He boomed it
- 1:12:58Speaker 3: and pinned it right in the court. Couldn't have placed
- 1:13:00Speaker 3: it any better. Taevon goes over and he's waving off everybody.
- 1:13:04Speaker 3: Get away, get away, and then he grabs it at
- 1:13:06Speaker 3: the one and had about four inches of space up
- 1:13:09Speaker 3: the sideline.
- 1:13:10Speaker 2: To work and takes it all the way to the house.
- 1:13:12Speaker 2: Was he a treat or what?
- 1:13:13Speaker 1: Ye? You remember?
- 1:13:14Speaker 2: It was fun to watch.
- 1:13:15Speaker 1: Do you remember the one that he and Steedman Bailey
- 1:13:17Speaker 1: had where they both came back down and they faked it.
- 1:13:19Speaker 2: Yeah, and they were pretending on to the other side.
- 1:13:23Speaker 1: That was awesome.
- 1:13:24Speaker 2: Yeah, he's one of those We said this on the show.
- 1:13:26Speaker 3: You're while you're watching him, you know how great it is,
- 1:13:29Speaker 3: but you're still not appreciating how great it is. And
- 1:13:32Speaker 3: then we mentioned does he go down as the best
- 1:13:34Speaker 3: recruiter for WVU football over the last fifteen years?
- 1:13:37Speaker 1: Yes?
- 1:13:38Speaker 3: How many people have we mentioned current players and still
- 1:13:41Speaker 3: recruits to this day?
- 1:13:42Speaker 2: Well, when'd you first hear about well, Tavon Austin highlight film. Oh,
- 1:13:45Speaker 2: he and Pat.
- 1:13:47Speaker 3: But now you've moved on to the the Tavon, right,
- 1:13:49Speaker 3: I mean we still remember the Pat, but the Tavon
- 1:13:51Speaker 3: was still true?
- 1:13:52Speaker 2: Right? Is still going on?
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: Three guys, I was in the Seattle airport three minutes
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: when I met a WVU graduate well hiking on Mount
- 1:14:02Speaker 1: Rainier fifty eight hundred feet. I met Lee from Harper's Ferry.
- 1:14:07Speaker 2: There.
- 1:14:07Speaker 1: He is signed by doctor Jeff and Charleston. So there
- 1:14:12Speaker 1: you go. I don't know which one's doctor Jeff. Doctor
- 1:14:16Speaker 1: Jeff has become a regular through the years. How which one?
- 1:14:20Speaker 1: Is it the hiker or is it the guy in
- 1:14:21Speaker 1: the gold shirt?
- 1:14:22Speaker 2: Hiker and guy in gold shirt.
- 1:14:24Speaker 1: That's just me sending Austin the note to get the
- 1:14:27Speaker 1: right picture.
- 1:14:28Speaker 2: I thought that was it.
- 1:14:30Speaker 1: That's me anyway, Dear three guys. Professor Vinnie, this is
- 1:14:35Speaker 1: a call out to p one listeners to share your
- 1:14:37Speaker 1: over unders and prop bets, basically much like you guys
- 1:14:40Speaker 1: do with football. For the number of sacks of Russian
- 1:14:42Speaker 1: years I listen, I'm asking listeners to do their over
- 1:14:46Speaker 1: and unders for how many times Tony mentions Recey cups
- 1:14:49Speaker 1: or how many times Hoppy misses a podcast or how
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: many times Brad name drops Iowa or which profession the

- 1:15:34Speaker 1: facility bar wherever he was, Hey, WVU. I turned look
- 1:15:39Speaker 1: across a large cafe, expecting to see another WVU fan. Instead,
- 1:15:43Speaker 1: I see a guy wearing a University of Florida polo.
- 1:15:47Speaker 1: He condescendingly continued and said, Hey, I remember WVU ninety
- 1:15:53Speaker 1: three sugar Bowl. I gave him the bird and continued
- 1:15:57Speaker 1: on my vacation in paradise.
- 1:15:59Speaker 2: Well done.
