0:12
Alrighty, welcome in, step on up. It's time for some three Guys
0:16
stuff. Thanks for being with us. This is episode five hundred and fifty
0:20
of Three Guys Before the game. Spring practice over for the world champion Mountaineers,
0:26
so this becomes our spring game recap, episode five to five zero.
0:31
All went well. Whenever you can get through a spring game and the trainers
0:36
never come onto the field, it's a good day. That's all you asked
0:39
for. It's a good day. Plus it was it had texture to it.
0:43
I thought the event had texture to a lot of things going on,
0:46
a lot of things, and you forgot number two. Number one is walk
0:49
out of there with no trainers. Number two is nice weather? Oh had
0:53
it real? Nice weather? Check? Good crowd? What they list the
0:57
crowd? Tremendous crowd. They listed eighteen plus Really what maybe third top certainly
1:03
top five of all time. I remember you knew it was big because they
1:06
opened the second side of the stadium. In the past few years they've had
1:08
you just on one side of the stay true. This was open on both
1:11
so it looked more spread out. But announced eighteen which was a tremendous turnout.
1:15
Yeah, that's awesome. Good deal. Three guys before the game.
1:19
We're going to get into the spring game. We're gonna get into the spring
1:21
season. Talk a little mountain near basketball, textual healing as well. Coming
1:26
up, plus big week for us. We're on the road Friday, Charleston
1:30
Live. Show that doesn't get recorded, so that place you can hear it
1:37
is there, but there's an opportunity if someone would like to go. I'll
1:40
just say that. We'll tell you more coming up. Three guys brought to

3:02
on in. As you said, you start your spring game. Rule number
3:07
one, let's not get anyone injured. And there was no significant injury,
3:14
and obviously they weren't going full tackle the entire time, which I personally think
3:21
is a good thing. Like I always go back to Quincy Nils Quincy Wilson's
3:27
knee injury in a spring game that caused him to miss an entire year,
3:32
and you just go like, why for what? Right? So they thutted
3:36
up. You got to see what you needed to see, but at the
3:39
same time healthy, as you said, whether was terrific. We saw the
3:46
newcomers make plays, we saw the returners returning players do what they do.
3:53
I mean, Preston pac Man Fox just like has glue on his hands,
3:58
Hudson Clement glue on his hands and on those catches. Those also fifty to
4:04
fifty great throws, great throws as well. Both. Yeah, so we'll
4:09
dive into all of that. Just a festive day. They got so much
4:13
stuff going on there. It's kind of like a football circus. They don't
4:15
put like three rings out on the field, but there's always something like,
4:19
hey, okay over here, now we're going to go over here, and
4:21
now we're going to do this. Thought was really well, kept it moving.
4:24
Heue Matt concert before the game. That was nice to see walk over
4:27
there at all. It did not get over there in time to see that.
4:28
Had to pull a shift at Daniel's that we'll get to here in a
4:30
minute. So that that made my arrival to the stadium a little later than
4:33
I would have normally glanced. I missed Hughey's performance, unfortunately, great day.
4:38
McAfee back, Pat White back. That was awesome. You're right on
4:42
some players. We'll go through some of that and just people everywhere. New
4:45
uniforms are out. We've got to get into that here a little bit as
4:46
well. I'm sure people have opinions and thoughts on that. Sure you do
4:49
talk about that as well. Yeah. Yeah, the Pat McAfee Pat White
4:55
thing went extremely well. Yeah, that's great because it wasn't like they just
4:58
pushed him out there to flip the coin. They were active. In fact,
5:00
I've never seen a head coach underneath the goalpost with the official in game
5:06
in game, that's what Pat McAfee was into. Pat White, during the
5:12
radio broadcast, was interviewed and he was a little upset by what he called
5:16
he defined as ghost points. He said, I just look up at that
5:19
scoreboard and the point total changes. I don't know what's going on here.
5:21
They just want Pat McAfee to win. So those two jumped perfectly into head
5:27
coach roles. Pat White complaining about ghost points, McAfee claiming that White was
5:30
cheating using his influence to get some points as well. So they just fit
5:33
right in with the head coaches. Yeah, and in all seriousness, I
5:38
think both of those guys were genuinely, genuinely appreciative of the response that they
5:45
get when they come back. And McAfee said, I need to come back
5:47
here more. I mean, it's like, I don't know when that would
5:50
be unless they put it like another six hours into a day. I don't
5:54
know how how he gets here more often, but he said, like I
5:56
just this makes me feel good. Same deal with Pat White, he said
6:01
Jed was interviewing him and he said, do you understand what you mean to
6:05
these people? And he said, do you understand what these people mean to
6:08
me? He said, this is the greatest four years of my life.
6:11
It's it's important from a fan perspective to have those guys, and not just
6:15
those two in particular, but the former greats back and engaged. But that
6:18
really makes a difference in that locker room and two recruits. You know,
6:21
we talked about it before, maybe more so McAfee than Pat White at this
6:26
point because those kids are so young. But to be able to have guys
6:30
like that back and talk and show what they've meant, you show some Pat
6:32
White highlights to incoming guys and say this is the dude, right. This
6:36
helped this program get to where it is invaluable to have them back inside that
6:41
locker room, maybe even more so than connected to the fan base. Sure,
6:45
as we said, there was over one hundred kids in some form in
6:46
fashion taking a recruiting visit on officials and the opportunity for them. A lot
6:53
of those kids like they watch and they listen to Pat McAfee and for him
6:57
to be out there and they see him and he gets a chance to you
7:00
know, they look at him, they talk maybe Okay, this makes it
7:02
cool err right? And West Virginia got, you know, got a nice
7:06
tight end commitment from Madison, Wisconsin. It's a young guy that was scheduled
7:12
to go to Penn State for a visit and instead Detourt came back down and
7:15
so Blaine Stewart lands one another good another. So Blaine pretty hot. He
7:21
successfully recruited McAfee, White and the big fella from Madison, Wisconsin to come
7:28
to West Virginia. So that's that's a good weekend. Yeah. Now you
7:30
so you went over Now you worked at Daniels first in the day, Saturday
7:34
in the morning. Yeah, pulled a pulled a rare Saturday morning shift.
7:38
Normally don't have time to do that on game days. Had some time,
7:41
went over and did a quick shift over there. You see anybody over there?
7:43
I did for the first person I saw when I walked in the door.
7:46
Nice gentleman was purchasing some stuff from Daniels. Guy by the name of
7:49
John Chambers. Not that John James was a school now, he was quick
7:54
to point out, not that John Chambers, although he worked in software technology.
7:57
See what he's wearing. Tone, Oh that John Johns sure, Morrisville,
8:01
North Carolina, by way a Point Pleasant. He's just retired, comes
8:03
up to all the games and he was in Daniel's. That literally first guy
8:07
saw when I walked in from a shift, before I could even clock in
8:11
in the back saw John Mothman, guy from Point Pleasant. Yeah that was
8:15
Who else did you see? That was fun? Well that was the only
8:16
one of Daniel's again quick shift. Just had to get some time in from
8:20
earlier in the week. Then headed straight over the stadium and then it was
8:22
just it was like a receiving line, met a ton of people. Everybody's
8:26
so nice coming up saying hello. We got pictures of that. Yeah,
8:28
let's start with Let's start with our guy, Brandon Willard from Charleston. Brandon
8:31
was there. Brandon was all geared up, said hello, he got a
8:35
lot of stuff going on, moving to our seats. Enjoyed talking to him.
8:37
Listens more than watches sure in the car, likes to drive and listen.
8:41
He looks more of a listener than what. That was fun. Yeah,
8:43
now you'll like this one. You like our next guy, Josh Bob
8:46
Josh up there, So that's Josh Price. That'd be our buddy, Judah
8:50
Price's dad, who had a nice spring game, had a couple nice runs.
8:54
He looks like a student. He looks like he could still play right.
8:56
And Josh was great. He stopped over and said hello and wanted introduced
9:00
himself. So it was fun talking to him. Didn't get pictures, but
9:03
I saw Josh and Kathy Hancock. Josh has been at our event here.
9:07
His son Wes will be part of the team. Martin from Martinsburg coming up.
9:09
Yeah, he was in attendant. A couple of Martinsburg guys. Nick
9:13
Busky, talented running back linebacker, he was in attendance as well. I
9:16
was good to see those guys. All right, so let's jump in.
9:18
Uh what what caught one more? I'm not done? Oh? Who done
9:22
it? After the game went out to eat here locally. Yeah, saw
9:26
Jonathan Barker, pastor up from Tennessee. A pastor from Tennessee and Chelsea were
9:31
in town, getting a bite to eat. They're gonna be around West Virginia
9:35
for a week or so, had just taken in the spring game. Had
9:37
a blast. Well, right time. That's a good thing. Normally those
9:41
pastors aren't around on Saturday. So we're getting ready to climb into that pulpit
9:43
on a Sunday. He was ready to go. He was good. Yeah,
9:46
he was great. That was that was over there at the roadhouse.
9:48
Yeah, we taking too little Texas roadhouse there. Cool. That was good.
9:52
So thank you to everybody that came up and said hello. Really nice
9:54
love hearing from everybody. All right, very good. All right? Football
9:56
wise, who uh who made you go ooh ah wow? Yeah, a
10:01
couple things. So I thought what we talked about Thursday was, I said,
10:03
you kind of hope it's a boring game quite frankly, that you see
10:07
a few little offensive flashes, you see some defensive plays, but the thing
10:11
kind of runs as a stalemate where you see success on both sides. I
10:13
thought that would probably sit well for what may come in the fall. And
10:18
I kind of thought that's what happened, Tony. I thought, that's that's
10:20
exactly how it played out. There was some pressure from the defense, a
10:24
couple of nice interceptions. We'll get to those couple offensive plays. You mentioned
10:28
the two catches, Clement and Preston Fox and so I thought some guys stood
10:31
out, but it wasn't such an explosion on one side that we come in
10:35
here and go, oh, I'm worried about the other side of the ball.
10:39
I thought both had their moments there. Let's go defense first. A
10:41
couple guys jumped out. I thought Joe Siah Trotter, as advertised, he
10:45
was in there and made a couple plays and including the pick six, but
10:48
he was also around the ball a bunch. So I think that's We've talked
10:52
about him for months now, really for a year and a half. He
10:54
will be somebody to keep an eye on this year. Aiden garn steps in
10:58
with an interception. Yeah, we've mentioned him, the cornerback transfer from Ducane.
11:01
He's high on the Brown mentioned index. You saw why he came up
11:05
with a pick. Here's one that we haven't talked about a lot, but
11:09
made a couple of plays, had an interception of a two point try,
11:13
had a good tackle on Jalen Anderson where he came up Zay Jennings. He
11:16
did early and roll Lee. There's some talk that he may see the field
11:20
this year. Wouldn't that be something for an early and he was active back.
11:22
He got a little bit to him. Yeah, he got a little
11:26
something to him. So I thought he was impressive. And then I mentioned
11:28
earlier, I also wanted to see a T. J. Jackson slash or
11:31
Ty French with some pressure. You got one from French there late in the
11:37
third. Didn't turn into a sack from him, but he came off that
11:39
edge and you could see him force Garrett up into the pocket and off rhythm.
11:43
It forced Green to take off and was flagged down a couple of yards
11:46
after that. So I thought you saw some flashes there as well from a
11:50
tie French that we think needs to be valuable for this team come this fall.
11:54
Tough to evaluate the quarterbacks in the sense that both Garrett and Nico.
12:01
You know, when you play with a quick whistle, it's really probably the
12:05
hardest to evaluate what a quarterback's doing because how many times in the course of
12:11
that game could you know either of those two popped right and made a bigger
12:15
play. So I mean, you caution on the side there, so you
12:18
don't get anything. You don't get anything out, but you just get the
12:22
overall sense at both of those at the first stringer and the second stringer,
12:26
there a quarterback that they've been in this program long enough that they are now
12:33
playing. Instead of thinking you can see a young guy when he's coming along
12:37
and he's still trying to process, these guys are balling and just going out
12:39
and playing, which is a huge step in the right direction. I think
12:43
you're totally comfortable with both of them, as you've seen. They've both won
12:46
games for you over the last couple of years, and I think both have
12:48
taken a step forward. There were times out there when you can just see
12:52
Garrett's explosiveness when he tucks it. Even when you're playing two hand touch out
12:56
there or whatever, you can just see him start to take off and breakthrough.
13:01
When that defense runs with the receivers downfield, you know Garrett's going to
13:03
make some plays. And we've talked a lot this spring about Nico in our
13:07
limited time over at watching practice. I think his arm is markedly improved,
13:11
and I think you're totally comfortable if Nico has to come in to a game.
13:15
The receiver part of this is what I think needs to take this step
13:18
forward, right, And I'm not split in the atom by saying that that's
13:22
one of the prevailing thoughts coming out of spring moving into next year. And
13:26
man, you just got some guys we've mentioned now, Hudson and Preston Fox
13:30
a couple of times they made plays. I thought Jayden Bray showed you some
13:33
right. He was solid and he got open into areas and then Trailing Ray
13:37
again, not brain surgery here to say you think Trailing Ray can be really
13:41
good, but just made the It's about as impressive as you can be when
13:46
you're throwing those underneath routes. And just when he had five catches, and
13:50
they were all plays that you need to make this year. They weren't the
13:52
big home runs, they weren't the catch and break it for big plays.
13:56
I think those are going to be there, but the balls underneath, when
13:58
Garrett would have to check it down or look down and not go for the
14:01
home run, deliver a strike, Trailon Ray catches the ball and gets upfield.
14:05
I thought he had a really solid game as well, and I'm anxious
14:09
to watch him come September. Yeah, he had four catches for fifty five.
14:11
It was targeted six times Preston Fox a couple of catches for nineteen yards
14:18
on three targets, so things were pretty pretty nominal. Let me see here,
14:24
Jayalen Anderson running the ball three times for twenty eight yards. There was
14:28
nothing. Let me go back to President four times for seventeen yards for Jayalen
14:31
Anderson, nothing overwhelming and Jaheem White very very limited action. They didn't plug
14:37
him in there until late. We know what he can do, so you
14:41
weren't sitting there passing wise Again, for what you want to make of it,
14:45
Garrett was eight out of thirteen with a pick seventy nine yards. I
14:48
know that pick bummed him out. You could see when he came over to
14:50
the sideline he was kind of looking at that, going like, all right
14:54
it never saw right, never saw him on the trotter, run on the
14:56
trotter, never saw trotter in there, and he was kind of kicking himself.
15:01
Nico went ten out of nineteen with a touchdown a pick through for eighty
15:05
two yards with a long of fifteen, but again coming out of there with
15:11
comfortable, we're in the past. Let's face it, we've gone into spring
15:15
seasons, We've gone into spring games before and you are very anxious and very
15:22
concerned about what kind of play you're going to get out a quarterback. And
15:26
as we've just said, I think you can get. You can be happy
15:28
to know that it's experienced help that you've got in that position going forward into
15:35
next year. Defensively, you mentioned a couple of guys, and Jeremiah Trotter
15:43
is a rare combination of He's very large. He looks oversized as a linebacker
15:52
in comparison to what we've played with recently. He's very broad. He gets
15:56
there in a hurry, and he gets there with great strength, and he's
16:03
kind of one of those guys that I think he's gonna make hits as the
16:07
season goes on that make people go like whoa, because he's a football player,
16:12
great tracking of the ball, and then he explodes. We've talked a
16:15
lot about this linebacker position for months and will continue to in the coming months.
16:18
But I think that's one of the most exciting parts of his defenses is
16:22
you have some dudes now at that position. Again, just start with Lathan
16:26
and Trotter in there. Those are guys that we've seen. You've seen Trotter
16:29
hear this spring. You saw Laithan making a ton of plays last year before
16:32
he got hurt, and then again as you add in a Ben Cutter,
16:34
a Reed Karrico. There's a bunch of guys there in that middle section the
16:38
defense, I think are going to be impressive, and Trotter certainly lived up
16:41
to that. On Saturday. I thought Kane Buyser officially led all defensive players
16:47
with a half a dozen tackles. Yeah. Hold on, there's another one
16:49
right at the linebacker position that was thrown in there last year, probably before
16:52
he needed to be That's a guy you feel totally comfortable about putting him in
16:56
that linebacking cor this year to add some depth. Basketballer turn footballer football turler
17:02
turn basketball, Aiden Tagaloa and Nelson he had the last he had a pick
17:07
yeah there to end the scrimmage. What about transfers, anyone make you go
17:11
wo Well? I thought, I thought Bray and Garns brayant receiver, Garns
17:17
at the defensive backer. Guys, Listen, We've talked a lot about them,
17:19
and I think they both need to be good. You add in Joseph
17:22
and Hollis the Northwestern transfers, and those are going to be guys, you
17:26
need to play well read Karako. You want to see be able to add
17:29
some depth there at the linebacker position. But Garns and Bray to me were
17:33
the two of those that stood out on Saturday. Okay, So now we
17:37
record on the twenty ninth of April, coming up on Wednesday, will mark
17:41
May one and that will officially close the transfer portal door. And every coach
17:49
out there right now is just kind of doing one of these deals, crossing
17:55
his fingers, saying like I just hope everything stays put and and we'll have
18:00
to wait and see. No guarantees on this. Something could happen, and
18:03
you just kind of wait, and then you just got to react. If
18:07
someone does leave, you got to react and fill the hole. Yeah,
18:08
And I think people will leave. I think that's the thing you're going to
18:11
see here. There's going to be some movement. Your hope is just that
18:14
it's guys that if they leave at a position, you feel like you've got
18:18
some depth and you can side somebody. And I think that's the difference for
18:19
this program than where it was heading into last year, even the year before,
18:23
where you held your breath even more about departures because it was such a
18:29
thin line on the depth department. I think you've strengthened a lot of spots
18:32
this year, so you're going to get probably a couple departures in the coming
18:33
days. Okay, deal with it, plug the next guy in. I
18:37
mentioned this on the last episode because I'm still having a problem processing it.
18:40
And that is the new revolution of agents making the proclamations for student athletes,
18:47
whether it be in football or in basketball. We had a case State player
18:51
going to the portal in basketball this weekend and announced by his agent like do
18:56
you double take now? You don't double take it? No, No,
19:00
I double take it. I kind of go like, gosh, I can't
19:02
believe this is this is it? This happened? Player. Agents's where we
19:07
are. So it opens up a whole new window for agents or people who
19:12
proclaim themselves to be agents, because that's also some of that. Yes,
19:17
So I'm just gonna go and give you a little bit of a walk through
19:19
this thing. Like that agent business. There are some extremely you know,
19:26
obviously reputable, really top shelf agents, but there's always been this other level
19:32
of people that want to play in that space or in that role. And
19:37
I get a little bit concerned that at the college level it is going to
19:44
embolden some of these people who proclaim themselves to be agents and to get a
19:52
hold of kids and to say I'm going to represent you, but they really
19:56
don't have what that person really needs needs as far as their best interest goes.
20:03
I think this thing could turn into a lot of yuck. Follow me
20:10
what I'm saying. Well, there's some agents that are going to take high
20:11
top shelf kids that are going to become pros. That's all cool, right,
20:17
that's all good. But a lower level kid that is never going to
20:21
be a professional is not going to get the attraction of the main type of
20:25
agents because they can't make money off of them. So you're going to get
20:29
another level. And I think there's going to be issues. Well, I
20:33
think there's no question, and there has been already. There's there's a group
20:36
here with NIL without with the absence of rules and regulations on the NIL stuff,
20:41
there is people flooding into the market that portray themselves to be NIL experts
20:45
for these guys, and listen, I do think it makes some sense for
20:48
a lot of these players to have some representation that people around them don't necessarily
20:53
have the expertise here. But yeah, you've got to pick correctly because there
20:56
are some folks out there that don't know what they're doing. They're going to
21:00
pretend they know what they're doing, and they're going to get some kids suckered
21:02
in. There's no doubt about that. That's part of the free market enterprise
21:04
that you're going to have. It's going to be there's going to be some
21:07
problems with that early. There's going to be some guys that are taken early.
21:11
You got to be super careful if you're entering that world. Yeah,
21:14
and one last point on it, So just to kind of make sure that
21:17
I'm being clear about this, So why are you going to get into some
21:22
issues because the average deal of an NIL deal is so much lower than you're
21:30
being led to believe that it is. Right, I'll say this, like,
21:34
thirty and forty and fifty thousand dollars deals are much much more real than
21:41
these six figure, three, four hundred dollars deals. You follow me,
21:45
Okay, So if you've got an agent that's representing a kid, let's just
21:51
say Brad is going to be worth on the market thirty forty thousand dollars like
21:56
there's not enough money in thirty or forty thousand dollars for that agent to make
22:00
a lot of money. I mean, if you take ten percent of that,
22:07
it's a three grand deal. Like people that are really proficient at that,
22:12
they're not gonna make moves for that. And then you get people that
22:18
don't really understand the true market value. I just get worried that some kids
22:22
will be given information that they will be misrepresenting what they think they're worth,
22:29
and then it just leads to a cluster. We'll see, we'll see how
22:33
that shakes up. But to your point, there needs to be some form
22:37
of rules and organization. By the way, the Commissioner Big twelve down there
22:44
at the Greenbrier this weekend, part of the WV Cancer Gala, how was
22:47
that? I didn't make it, didn't make his seminar. I was up
22:51
here doing that football game. Didn't get down there until a little bit later
22:53
in the evening. But talk to some folks who are there. The word
23:00
revenue used with great frequency. Sure, a lot of revenue. I guess
23:03
that would make some sense. That's the number one topic in college sports right
23:07
now. A lot of revenue talk. Also Connecticut talk on their national championship.
23:14
No membership, excuse me, membership. What do you mean on their
23:18
membership? Big twelve interested in Connecticut. I thought that was already done and
23:25
put to bed in a No, I don't know about that. I think
23:29
that I think that Natty, think that Natty keeps kindling that a little bit.
23:33
Hmm, won't surprise me. Yeah, Gonzaga acus me on both ends.
23:41
Gonzaga and Connecticut. Listen, Connecticut. Listen as someone that spent time
23:47
at Connecticut. They're in an odd spot because they're continuing to have football,
23:52
but it's clearly being driven. They're they're joining back into the Big East.
23:55
Was clearly a driver to get the basketball back on the map. That has
23:59
that worked? No, it hasn't worked to get basketball back on the mat.
24:03
Yeah, that's part of it, But I get football. They got
24:06
nothing going on that part. Shore. They're okay. They got basketball back
24:08
going, They're back where they feel like they should be. I don't know
24:11
that there's a lot of clamoring around college sports to to join back with Yukon
24:15
in a different league. They're in a they're in a good spot now.
24:18
They need revenue too, as everybody does, and so I understand why those
24:22
discussions come up. But man, you talk about fit all the time.
24:26
That seems that seems odd from both parties. Quite frankly, we'll see how
24:30
that. See what checks out out near basketball? Coach DeVries over at that
24:37
football game the other day. I saw coach heard. We had had a
24:40
nice little chat there during the spring game. You know, a big football
24:42
guy saying hello. No, wait a second, if you'd hold on that
24:48
photo for a second, now, that doesn't look like sky. That doesn't
24:55
look like the sky, And excuse me, that looks more like a suspended
24:57
ceiling with some can lights up in there eye. Weren't you, correctly,
25:02
weren't you the guy that told me that you were going to be seated outside
25:06
during thing? That kind of looks like a sweet to me? Now,
25:07
where are you head over there? Well? I tried to get to all
25:11
different parts of the stadium there, Tony, to see who I need to
25:12
say hello to. I was a stop by the suites, saw coach Devrees
25:17
in there. It's doing well. Get some players, get some coach.
25:21
What do we got there? What do we got? Yeah? Getting there?
25:22
I think over the next couple weeks you're going to see them continue to
25:26
strengthen that roster. You know, you got to think about it from this
25:29
perspective. They're at the point now you get a couple, two, three
25:33
more editions in there, and you're probably pretty well set with your rotation.
25:37
Guys. I know you need a ton of players overall, but some of
25:40
those are going to be depth pieces that you can add later on. So
25:42
they've got a couple guys here in the next few days they hope to have
25:45
locked up and we'll see where it goes. So when you ran into him,
25:48
did you like kind of do your Iowa handshake? Like is there some
25:51
special kind of like just said hello, good to see you. Any Iowa
25:55
talk at all? Yeah, some talked about his brother, talked about brother
26:00
who was an All American at Iowa, played in the NFL for a long
26:02
time. Yeah, anyone else, anyone else we need to know about running
26:06
around in that booth. Yeah, it was. I saw Avon Coburn for
26:07
a little bit that In fact, that was the conversation was interesting. I
26:10
introduced Darren to Avon Coburn. Avon pointed out he played for a little bit
26:15
of time with Darren's brother, Jared Lions the Detroit lions. Yeah, that
26:19
was kind of a fun, little small world conversation. They're very small world.
26:22
It's always great to see Avon. Back to all right, coming up
26:26
on three guys before the game, we're gonna get into some textual healing.
26:29
Saw a lot of people obviously over the weekend we were bouncing around a little
26:33
bit. But first, this reminder from the super duper people at the wonderful

27:11
Visit gomart dot com. That's go Mart dot com. All right, all
27:18
in all, Hey, how about the baseballers, Oh my gosh, rolling
27:22
again sweep of Baylor over the weekend, that's three series sweeps. They playing
27:26
great. They're playing great. They just find ways to win. They just
27:30
hung around yesterday. Aiden Major did a really good job there. I did
27:34
go over more beautiful day again. Were you in the stadium where you cheat
27:38
the hill again? Go up top there with the hospital you went inside Thesatt
27:42
Stadium. We were there watching and so it was great. Had A had
27:45
a wonderful time. Aiden Major did a nice job. Gave up, gave
27:48
up four runs while he was in there, but only on four hits.
27:49
Very opportunistic by Baylor while they were in there. He brings some heat.
27:53
Man. He's a mid nineties guy, and you see mid nineties live when
27:57
you're sitting in there. That's that's humping up there, and it makes that
28:00
catcher's mit pop a little bit. I'm fitting it up pretty good. So
28:03
that's one of my daughters here. Jeez, he's thrown fast. He's thrown
28:07
fast. He's thrown fast. There's a couple of dudes having seasons. Man,
28:11
Kyle West. Kyle West continues to absolutely hit missiles. This hits absolute
28:18
seeds when he's up there. Grant Hussey went deep yesterday. Was good to
28:21
see him get one. Get a long ball. But Kyle West missed having
28:26
a three home run day by about four feet total to what I heard when
28:30
the wind took it. Yeah, because it was blowing out to left again.
28:33
He was testing that center field and right area a couple times, but
28:36
he could have easily had three home runs on the day. He's in the
28:38
balls, he really does. Yeah. So they're rolling, So they're rolling,
28:42
So they've got they got pit. They're up at pitt this week.
28:48
Yes, their MIDWEK game is part P and C Park. Yeah, and
28:52
then I'm assuming Kansas State, right, they go to Kansas State this coming
28:56
weekend. But they're right in position again. They are calendar turns to May
29:00
for the defending Big Twelve champs. You are right in the hunt again,
29:03
which is I think just remarkable for this group, giving those injuries early on
29:07
in the season, to be hanging around where they are just simply remarkable.
29:11
Yeah, So just one more home series remains. Did I screw that up?
29:15
I'm trying to think, you know, it might help me if I
29:18
bring the baseballs. I think case States here. I screwed down the other
29:22
part of that. Cincinnata, it's coming up on the road. Gether the
29:26
weather was great again. Obviously we talked about that the spring game and it
29:29
was like that all weekend over at that park again and not plowing new ground
29:33
here, but that park with that kind of weather when you're out there,
29:37
that's a really fun way to spend a day. Yeah, it is.
29:41
And teams are starting to not like to come here, which is perfect.
29:45
That's great because you got a little vibe and you got some stuff going within
29:48
your stadium. So fingers crossed. So they do have just one more big
29:52
twelve series remaining, as my computer goes slower and slower by the day,
30:02
but coming up for West Virginia the midweek game against pitt which is always neat
30:07
at PNC, and then after that the world champion Mountaineers do go to Cincinnati
30:15
this weekend five o'clock Friday, three on Saturday, one on Sunday. Then
30:21
Penn State supposed to return that game. They're supposed to come down here.
30:26
Yeah, they're supposed to come down here a week from Wednesday, and then
30:30
West Virginia closes league play here case staters come here May ten, May eleven,
30:37
and May twelve, and then West Virginia has the TB TB determined game
30:45
on May fourteenth. Those are good this time of year. Yeah, filling
30:48
a fill it in then at TCU and then they stay on the road,
30:52
they go right to the Big twelve. Keep rolling. Man, you're right
30:53
in the hunch. You're you're getting good pitching, you're getting good hitting.
30:56
And that's the thing like with West coming on and you're getting guys. It
31:00
doesn't have to just be weatherholed. That's where you're rolling now. Some of
31:06
those other guys got experienced the rest of the lineups coming through. Really fun
31:08
team to watch, and I'm really glad that I corrected that on the fly
31:11
about Case State going to K State this weekend. I then need to deal
31:17
with those texts that would have been coming in here. You fixed it.
31:18
You fixed it. Yeah, since that now no text place in case those
31:22
people that turn it off right after you said that, just stay with you.
31:25
You got it back online. You've already we've already corrected it. Yeah,
31:27

day grind. A little protein powder in there today with the game day grind,

32:07
hit to it. Plus got a little protein in. How many grams of
32:09
protein? Ah, there's one scoop. I don't remember where it was,
32:13
somewhere from fifteen twenty. That's good. How many are supposed to get it
32:15
in a day? A lot a lot more than that working on protein intake.
32:20
Can't get all in one serving though. This is a nice little additional
32:22

Coalfields rights in three guys, I need to hear the story behind Tony getting
36:49
Major Harris to rap and why it ticked off Coach don Neel And thanks much.
36:54
I've told the story. I'll give it to you really quick. So
37:00
the Ronald McDonald House was in the infancy of being constructed here in Morgantown,
37:07
and the past president at wv's wife was involved in the fundraising and she we
37:15
were talking or something, and I said, why don't we do like I
37:17
don't know how the rap part of it got involved, but I went and
37:22
I got Major Harris and it was supposed to be Rico Tyler and they were
37:25
going to do a rap song. And I secured a studio over there on
37:30
West Run Road. Kim Monday, Kim Munday, you know Kim I Kim
37:37
Yeah, Son Donovan, Yeah, Donovan. Yeah. They had a studio
37:40
in their in their place there on West Run Road. Drive over to the
37:44
stadium. I was driving my seventy nine Robin blue Ford Granada. Pulled up.
37:52
No, this is the facilities building back in that day, prior to
37:54
the pushcar center, and like Major was there and I said, Major,
37:59
what's up? He goes, yeah, let's do this. I said,
38:02
seems to being good voice to go record and I go, Where's where's Rico?
38:08
Don't know where Rico is. Rico, who now, by the way,
38:12
is a vice president in administration at DePaul University. And he said,
38:16
like, so we went and got el Void mace. So he said late
38:22
late filling void. Let's go jump in the car, drive down a Western
38:24
road, go to Kim's studio. We'll go down in the basement there at
38:29
the studio. I can't remember who else was there. And you know what,
38:35
Alan Hercules might have been there. Shot it on camera, like we
38:39
were way ahead of the game. You were way ahead of the game,
38:42
way ahead of Yeah, because it's on video. This is eighty eight.
38:46
So they sat down at had the time. I'm surprised the video camera fit
38:50
in the room. Yeah, exactly, probably put it in the trunk.
38:52
So al Voyd and Major literally and I'm not exaggerating, like wrote the like
39:01
on a blank sheet of paper and I'm not exaggerating. It was no more
39:05
than twenty twenty minutes. They get we got it. I said, what
39:09
we're done? Got it? Boom, turned it on. Kim had a
39:17
a sample some sort, he hit a beat and they just started riffing off
39:22
of the thing, and we're like, it wasn't ninety minutes and we left
39:27
a couple of days later, Kim says, Okay, here's what I got
39:29
for you, and we went like, wow, anyway, that's the long
39:34
I said I was going to do it short. That's the long version.
39:36
So Neilan doesn't know anything about this, put the song together. We pressed
39:40
it onto a cassette. All money goes to the Ronald McDonald house. So
39:45
you were selling this blatantly, selling it like this was no Internet, no
39:52
direct So you're selling these things, putting them an envelope, sending him out
39:54
across the state, play out. So we sold seventeen thousand dollars worth of
40:00
them pretty good. It's really good. One of the bad things was one
40:06
of the purchasers that was unbeknownst to me was the University of Notre Dame.
40:13
So they got ahold of it, and they were playing at hold On because
40:20
this was in the interim between the end of the regular season and before the
40:22
Fiesta Bowl. Correct, so they would play it. They would play it
40:28
before their practice started, when they were in their warm up stretch, team
40:31
stretch. They were doing team stretch. So I didn't know anything about that,
40:36
and I had a basketball game back here, so I got to Arizona
40:40
after the football team did. So I just remember pulling up, yeah,
40:51
pulling up, no, pulling up to the motel there where we were staying
40:54
at. And just when I was getting there that afternoon, the football teams
41:00
getting ready to and by the way, at that moment, you're all giddy
41:01
because right you're you're in the Festival's kind of a national championship on the line.
41:06
This is gonna be great. Can't wait? So excited to be here
41:08
in good spirits. Yeah, I was gonna. I was actually gonna spot
41:10
I spotted that game for Jack Flemy. Yeah, I was a spotter,
41:14
so I was all excited and Neelan's walking out of the motel just as I
41:21
get there and he sees me. It looks it looks as though, based
41:24
upon his reaction, that he had been looking for me, because like he
41:30
he kind of like he sprung when he finally was an abnormal reaction for when
41:35
he would normally see you. Yes, yeah, quite so I tipped you
41:37
off, quite because he and I at that point, like I mean like
41:45
we were boys boys at that point. I've been here four years, so
41:47
he knew me, but he didn't know me like you know. He it
41:52
was like before he started calling me tones like hate tones. It wasn't that.
41:57
No, So he sees me and at that time he hadn't had the
42:00
surgery yet with the finger, you know, he had that finger that was
42:05
crooked from when he played. So he was trying to point at me,
42:08
but it was going that way. And he says, hey, Tony,
42:17
do you know what notre Day is playing before every one of their practice and
42:22
I, you know, and I was totally didn't, Like I don't I
42:27
don't think I knew And I said, no, what and he said,
42:34
you're blanking, blanking, blanking. Yeah, he got all three of them
42:42
in I got and I went, WHOA, I'm sorry, because you know
42:49
coaches are they're already trying to find an excuse, to find an excuse,
42:52
and you well know because everyone's thinkers as tight as it could be. I
42:59
like, okay, fine, so there you go, j D. That's
43:02
the long story what happened. But he also still hasn't let that go that
43:07
came up when he was in here before. I'm not sure where he's where
43:09
it's where he stands with it. I'm sure where it stands with it.
43:15
He likes you a lot, he does not like that moment in time.
43:19
No, and he also knows Major's injury had more to do with the outcome
43:23
of the game than tape, probably a little bit. Yeah, and Michael
43:28
Stonebreaker right, Tim Brown that quarterback of theirs too, He pretty good,
43:37
was that Tony Rice at the time? Yeah? Rocket is my So.
43:45
Lou Holtz liked the song apparently. Yeah, I give myself a trouble.
43:52
Uh Texter from Josh second time texter, longtime listener from Ravens Home of the
44:00
Running Red Devils. Well, you don't need to tell us that we know
44:04
we know Coach mcprice down there, good afternoon or whatever time it is.
44:07
This is an over under question next season. CJ. Donaldson nine hundred yards
44:15
plus minus Garrett Green twenty touchdowns? Thanks love the show. PS we need
44:23
more kertschieveil CJ. At nine hundred what you got at seven ninety five last
44:30
year? And was really probably never one hundred percent healthy in a full go,
44:35
was he? I think that's got to go over now again. You're
44:38
gonna want to see what this line does with now that number twenty two is
44:42
going to give a chance to run it too? He is? I know
44:44
he did last year too, and he went for eight forty two and there's
44:47
running yards available out there, so you think it's Gary Green's gonna run for
44:51
some yards. I mean, I get what he's asking here. It's a
44:53
really good number. It's a really good number. But he got within one
44:57
hundred of that last year with all three of those guys clipping along unders probably
45:02
the play to begin with because of all three of those, But that wouldn't
45:06
surprise me if he got there. What about Garrett on twenty touchdowns he accounted
45:12
for or just rushing didn't do that? That was a good question. Yeah.
45:15
On the thirteen rushing sixteen passing. So if he's combining, week accounted
45:20
for twenty nine, so the twenty's way over. I don't know if he
45:22
means just rushing or passing. They're probably passing. And if it's twenty passing,
45:27
I'm listen. I'm Joe Fan here everything, and Joe Fan always takes
45:30
everything over. I'm taking everything over. I think Garret Green throws some more
45:32
and twenty touchdown passes a year because I think that passing game takes a step
45:36
forward. Steve not cal rights in good numbers. Though, Remember I talked
45:44
about the two doctors, the Fraser sisters. He writes he when the two
45:47
Doctors Fraser left the Pride of West Virginia Marching Band, the Double DVU Alumni
45:52
Ban amended its charter to say that no DOUBLEVU Alumni Band event could begin before
45:59
these two awesome some mountaineers arrived. That's just how dedicated they are. This
46:04
may or may not be unconfirmed. Thank you, Steve the other Cariff.
46:07
They are dedicated. Texter scopes spreads in halftime hoppy. Since the spring game
46:14
preview covered almost every topic except the actual spring game, I was wondering if
46:20
you could tell me more about this new transfer you guys were talking about named
46:23
Joe Cocker. What position does he play? How many how many years of
46:30
eligibility in his ten year eligibility does he have left? And what number to
46:35
look for when he's pushed out onto the field to play. Thanks for the
46:38
last and entertainment, Greg and Buchannan. Thank you, Greg ps. I
46:44
think three guys would make a great grand feature parade marshals for next year's Strawberry
46:47
Festival. You ever been a grand marshal at a parade? Have never?
46:52
I've never done that. You You've probably have done one, haven't you know?
46:55
And that's a streak I'd like to continue. Really you've never done that?
46:58
Turned down one? Yeah, turned down once. And the guy that
47:01
offered a guy really bummed out, never asked you back. Well, I
47:05
didn't want to go. I didn't want to do it. It's like I
47:07
think I got my message across. He was. He was like, he
47:10
was upset. What do you mean, I'll due respect to the event of
47:14
question goes, what do you mean? I go like, that's not something
47:15
that i'd like to do. Like I don't like to sit and wave to
47:19
people. You know, that's not one of the things that I would find
47:23
enjoyable. Throw a little candy out, not you're doing I would like to
47:27
fire candy. Hey, three guys did that and had bags of candy.
47:30
What's the percentage that would actually get thrown versus him? There'd be a lot
47:35
of consumption. Yeah, Hoppy would be incredibly uncomfortable as a parade Marshal Yah,
47:38
which might be worth doing it just for that reason. I might do
47:40
it if like hop could just make Hoppy like wither for like about three miles
47:45
down a road at two miles an hour. Hey, three guys or two
47:50
guys, since Hoppy's always gone. Yes, when you say a high Lewisville,
47:54
the Kroger's and youtubes, we know it's meant to give you clowns an
47:59
inward chuckle. But as in my case and surely others too, we point
48:04
that out to give ourselves a chuckle to and give us a chuckle, just
48:07
hoping our chuckles don't join forces and destroy us. All. No, we're
48:12
not chuckling us all, Texter says. At Marshall's commencement ceremony, keynote speaker
48:17
Chris Gardner opened with where's Hoppy? Apparently he has the same problem as two
48:23
guys does Matt from Fayetteville? Did that actually happen? Though it'd be great
48:28
if it was. Did that actually happen? Do you think? Oh?
48:30
I would love to know that. Someone would have told us before if that
48:35
would have happened. But that was the guy that made Hoppy like weird right
48:37
on the show last week. You know what you're talking about. The guy
48:43
that was the author that Hoppy talked about that he had them all, Oh,
48:45
yeah, that's that may have happened. That may have happened where he
48:49
got to try to put on the show. Are you coming to the Why
48:51
are you not coming to my great I hope that happened? James and Grafton.
48:58
Dana's mark on the program has has officially been removed from the uniforms Thoughts
49:01
on the new outfits for the World Champion Mountaineers Again, I'm uniform agnostic,
49:10
So what do you think? Overall? Liked them and the storytelling's really good
49:15
too. West Ring has put out a couple videos that encourage you to go
49:17
check out if you want to see the more in depth reasons for this.
49:21
But a couple of things I like, I don't know that I had a
49:23
strong opinion on the stripes on the pants. I get why they wanted to
49:29
bring back the ode to the great teams enter coach Neil that had the stripes.
49:31
I really like them once I saw the stripes on the pants, especially
49:36
the white, because I've never been the all white uniforms for me, I
49:39
know a lot of players like this, that's never been my favorite. I
49:43
think those take a massive step forward with the stripes staying on the white.
49:47
The gold outline now on the jersey helps tie it all together because everything has
49:52
gold and blue on it on the white. So it's very good. The
49:55
ode to the heyday of the Pat White, Steve's eight and air with the
50:00
cress and shoulders around there or chip on the shoulder as some have described that,
50:04
which is a good way to describe it. I like that put the
50:07
branding on the side, the flying WV good on that. So overall I
50:09
think they're I think they're really good, and I feel like they mix and
50:13
match maybe a little bit better than the last iteration due So overall thought they
50:16
did a nice job on him on that release that they sent out. As
50:21
far as who was involved in the design was surprised your boy was involved,
50:24
Michael for Gail. Yeah, he's a big uniform guy. I know he
50:29
is history of uniforms. I don't know that he was making designs. He
50:32
wasn't making the drawing and the designs, but probably had input on. He
50:35
had input past, he's got he's got a great retro. You know,
50:37
he's got a great history to how those uniforms used to look. I said,
50:40
But they listed the people that were involved. He was one of them,
50:43
which surprised me. They kept they kept talking about marrying the history with
50:46
the modern. I do think that achieved that. So I think there were
50:50
some nice little easter eggs in there, as they're sometimes called, of what
50:53
things meant. I really liked the all whites for the road Now, I
50:58
really liked those, truly. Do The stripe on the pants elevates those up
51:01
a lot in my opinion, really like them. There're gonna be any more
51:07
coming out. I don't know. It might be Hey Brad Tony and Hoppey.
51:15
Professor Vinnie here lifelong Steelers fan. I am so pumped that they chose
51:21
Zach Frazier. Here's to hoping he can be an all pro center for them.
51:25
This actually got me thinking who was the last WVU player to play consistently
51:32
for the Steelers not practice squad. Well, I turned my guy on that.
51:40
I took your question and I said, Okay, who is it?
51:44
Because yes, there have been mountaineers that have passed through. Right, You've
51:47
had Ryan Munday, You've had Carl Joseph, You've had Terrence Garvin. Amos
51:52
amos, Mike Logan, Yeah, my guy said, Mike Logan. My
51:55
guy said it was Mike Logan that consistently played my guy's Jeff Campbell. You
52:01
know soup? Heard of soup? Would know? Right? Used to have
52:05
the license plate that said Steelers, the West Virginia license plate that said Steelers
52:10
till someone stole it. Texter Fellas listening to five forty eight episode I went
52:16
to high school with P one listener Jennings in Ravenswood. You won't find a
52:22
guy with more dedication. If you guys held a contest to see who could
52:25
throw the most boiled eggs over a retaining wall from your Durandeck's chair on my
52:30
family farm in Jackson County, he'd be there in line. PS. If
52:34
you ever need to know anything about our country's former presidents, he's the man
52:37
asked. So Jennings apparently has great knowledge of past United States president. The
52:42
president expert didn't know that well, ask him. I think he'll be at
52:45
the CPA event, right. He was not a CPA, but he was
52:47
trying to effort to get in there. Yeah. I mean, I wouldn't
52:50
know why you wouldn't do that. Deal when Thursday, that would be Friday,
52:54
Friday, This Friday, This Friday. Nay, yeah, three Wednesday's
53:00
the first, so this May third, seventy nine bucks, May three seventy
53:06
nine bucks. You don't have to be a member. We're gonna have fun.
53:07
WVSCPA dot org to register in Charleston, Marriott. Greetings, two guys,
53:15
since Hopity already announced his absence, Sean from Raleigh. A couple of
53:19
quick things. I agree with Tony. I like the all white uniform,
53:22
so he must have been listening to the broadcast. I'm sure superstitious Brad gets
53:25
all angsty because of the record in that configuration, but he's smart enough to
53:30
know the uniforms aren't the reason. Why do I know, though, I
53:35
was always number thirteen when possible. Second thing is I listened to Tony in
53:39
the Gang on Saturday because I had some yardwork to do, so right.
53:43
As Pat White answered the question during his on field interview asking if he knew
53:46
how much he meant to WVU fans, there must have been a cloud of
53:50
dust in the air because something got in my eyes. As he answered,
53:52
I hope they know what they mean to me. That's what Pat said.
53:57
That is a great answer by Pat. Yeah, have a great week,
54:00
gentlemen. I hope we have a fun and robust summer series. Seth puts
54:05
pressure on us. That puts pressure on us. I don't think he meant
54:09
to put pressure. Yeah, he just knows it's going to be a good,
54:13
fun and robust efforting as always, Texter says, I enjoyed your last
54:17
podcast Friday. Returning to West Virginia for the WVU Cancer Gala this weekend.
54:23
After the great positive vibes brought by Wren and all the coaches at the WVU
54:28
dinner last Monday, seeing how Wren and the WVU football actively engaged some of
54:32
our forever stars like Pat and Pat, kudos to Blaine Stewart who's a big
54:37
part of this and looking forward for more to come. Coach Devrees is off
54:43
to a great start. It was so nice meeting with him and again so
54:45
special to see and hear from John Beeline Coliseum will be rocking this season.
54:51
While we didn't get Tony and Neil until later in the day on Saturday,
54:54
the chat between President Gee and Brett yor Mark at the gala was most lightning.
55:00
People need to feel very thankful for Gordon Gee's leadership at the highest level
55:07
of college athletics with the college football playoff and likewise with our Big Twelve commissioner
55:12
on a great trajectory as they are playing chess on multiple levels to ensure that
55:20
West Virginia and the Big Twelve are on solid ground. Congrats Tony forgetting the
55:24
auction items bid up quite nicely. And a reminder of all Three Guys listeners,
55:30
the WVU medicine is world class in a number of areas including cancer care
55:34
and screening. Last comment, Tony, can you get some Three Guys logoed
55:38
swag added to the swag bag at the cancer Gala? I see all these
55:43
demands to tell your buddy Dave, we appreciate the uggs and the game day
55:47
grind coffee, but efforting some additions. Keep up the great work you guys
55:52
are the view of Mountaineer Sports. Nice text. A quick note. There
55:59
was slid in there getting the auction items bid up quite nicely. So you
56:02
flew down there with an auctioneer. Yeah, as you brought into the auctioneer.
56:07
Yeah, how'd that go? I mean you claimed before you're a world
56:09
class auctioneer. It went well and we did well. How many items total?
56:17
Do you remember? Auction? Live? Yeah? Seven seven live auction.
56:22
So they had a special in dinner plea request for funding for a device
56:34
that's called a four device that is much needed. It involves I'll butcher the
56:38
heck out of this, but involves using ultraviolet rays for folks that are going
56:43
through cancer treatments when their throats and inside their mucus areas swell up because of
56:51
the treatments. Using this device reduces that. They're expensive. They cost twenty
57:00
grand each and so the request was there that night. You do this in
57:06
real time off of an app you donate. The goal was to get one
57:10
hundred and forty thousand dollars to buy seven of them, and people stepped up
57:16
big time. Multiple people stepped up big time, and we got to one
57:22
hundred and thirty eight thousand, really nice, and then another couple said,
57:30
will go in for twenty and then two more twenties came in. We got
57:38
that thing like two or one hundred and ninety eight thousand and change. Someone
57:44
else said I'll kick it up over two hundred thousand dollars and so they were
57:49
able to buy ten of those devices so that they will distribute across the state
57:54
to help people get that. So that's here. Well, yeah, that's
57:59
huge. That's big. Then, Wen, you weren't auction you weren't an
58:00
auctioneer there. I was encouraging people to do that off their phone or if
58:07
they wanted to write a hard check they had people were accepted, checks were
58:10
accepted, whatever it would take. And then we did do the auction seven
58:15
items. And uh, first off, let me show you a couple that
58:19
I met, Jim and Debbie Morris. So they came up to me and
58:24
there they are there. Now, I had a tuxedo on. I didn't
58:27
wear that at the football game. I changed. That is just Jim and
58:30
David. Now do you know who they are? They're p one listeners.
58:35
But their son is the g I doc. Okay, yeah, now he's
58:38
in Pennsylvania, right, now, but went to WV Medical school. Sure,
58:43
so you could kind of see it was a fancy upfair. And then
58:45
I did take the mic and I did some auctioning there, and I think,
58:50
uh, I think Dave are the guy. Dave sent a video and
58:52
he's got some video of you auctioneering. Yeah, we got some. We
58:55
got some auction if you want to roll that bean video there. Yeah,
59:00
I've got two together, I've got three rider I have four, so we
59:08
were in like four thousand at that point I got five. That sounds that
59:15
sounds I mean, I hate to give you too much credit, but it
59:19
actually does sound like you know what you're doing. You have settled it nicely
59:22
into that role. Well, I mean you when you became play done one
59:28
in a while, right, you hadn't even been getting reps on this.
59:30
No, not the way six seven, sixty five hundred. Oh, I'm
59:37
trying to see what the item was. Sixty five once and I've got four,
59:43
I've got seven. Yeah, so the money just kind of goes up
59:45
pretty quick. A nice job there, you said, going once to try
59:49
and get some finality to and then that just kicked it. There was one
59:52
time I was at once twice and someone screamed, whoa veteran move ten?
1:00:02
Someone just went from seven to ten. Anyway, you get the gist.
1:00:08
That's pretty good. So we did. I think you might, you might
1:00:12
have a future in that. I enjoy it and I am available for a
1:00:15
celebrity auction sixty grand. We did over sixty thousand dollars an auctioning. That's
1:00:21
wow great, So it was good night fundraising. Funny. You have a
1:00:22
bunch of different So we had a sweet of yankt a Yankee game, had
1:00:25
a full suite of a Yankees. Yankee game had a week at a beautiful,
1:00:31
gorgeous ten thousand square foot place in Jamaica. Chef Paul Smith, you
1:00:37
know, chef Sure down from Rozeford, cooked for us. Sure had a
1:00:39
dinner at the Blaney House. I'd probably be really good. He's gonna cook
1:00:44
at the Blaney House. That bad boy went. That was nice. So
1:00:50
congratulations to all the folks that were there, and it was good. Good
1:00:54
job by you on the auctionary. Real, I mean, you're not a
1:00:58
whole lot of there's not You were way out on a limb there when you
1:01:00
proclaim that, but you actually are pretty good at that. Well, See.
1:01:05
That's the one thing I want to know after five hundred and fifty episodes,
1:01:08
like when you will acknowledge when I say I can do something, I
1:01:13
can do it. I'll hold back when I say I told you I could
1:01:15
kill that boar, went out and killed the boar. I said, auction
1:01:20
as a sleeper already dead when you got it, the auctioneering thing is legit.
1:01:22
You you are. You do a nice job with that boor thing.
1:01:27
Man, Yeah, I was, yea, it was good. H here
1:01:34
we go, hello, pizza guy, spreads and hobster Mending all those old
1:01:37
relationships with the cbas CPAs has given good karma to the Mountaineers with the winning
1:01:43
and the passing of the rifle. Speaking of efforting, forty nine Ers general
1:01:47
manager John Lynch knows the verb now, using it in his post draft press
1:01:52
conference. He didn't invent it, though, like what this old columnist said,
1:01:55
Joe and Charleston. So there, if you take a look at it,
1:01:58
John Lynch did use the word to efferty. It's awesome. I remember
1:02:02
I didn't invent it either. No, we stole from Dan Patrick. Correct.
1:02:06
Well, we're first, we're first to acknowledge. Yeah, where stuff
1:02:08
is stole, so John Lynch wants to use it by all means sure.
1:02:13
Neil from Greenbrier County rights in, I was at the game the day that
1:02:17
John Denver christened the News Stadium with Country Roads. I was there and had
1:02:21
the T shirt and I partied all weekend. Awesome. Tony's issues with having
1:02:25
the correct person or place lately reminds me of a saying from a lawyer here
1:02:30
in Greenborough County who often says often wrong, but never in doubt. I
1:02:37
think there might be a new episode eight hundred shirt phrase right there. I
1:02:40
think that would be a great T shirt. That's a good teacher right,
1:02:43
often wrong, never in doubt. You could do that in five words,
1:02:46
I love the show. Hope to see you guys at a tailgate this fall,
1:02:50
Neil in Greenborough County. Thank you, Neil. Doctor Jeff and Charleston
1:02:54
writes in a more in depth analysis of the Country Roads phenomenon, I asked
1:02:59
why has that song taken on such a global presence? He writes in that
1:03:06
not only does that song take us home, it takes us to our childhood
1:03:10
home where we were loved and protected by our parents, grew up with our
1:03:15
brothers, and sisters and played outdoors incessantly with our friends. Secondly, it
1:03:20
encourages us to mentally escape the congestion and isolation of city life and drive to
1:03:25
the almost heaven friendly country place we belong. Doctor Jeff and Charleston A's well

on the boat, including today. We record on Monday's supposed to be up
1:04:50

1:04:55
Hey, three guys, I've got a request for the summer series.
1:04:58
How about Grant Hussy. He's part of my extended family. I've known him
1:05:01
since he was knee high to a grasshopper. Sister in law's nephew Philip from
1:05:06
Philippy counting the days until August thirty, First go long, Grant. He
1:05:12
had three hits yesterday and including a home run. He had a thing dong,
1:05:15
didn't he? Yeah, mentioned Grant earlier and should love to have him
1:05:16
on great story. Jeff from Sandyville is he passed the all time home run
1:05:21
markers. He's tired. Okay, tied it yesterday. Hoppy will probably say
1:05:28
the wheel or electricity. But Tony, what is the biggest change you've seen
1:05:32
in broadcasting since you started? Jeff from Sandyville, The biggest change in broadcasting
1:05:42
would be the ability to digitize audio from analog. Because when you were able
1:05:48
to digitize audio, it allowed you to distribute audio at your convenience. And
1:05:59
by that, I mean you could now send audio through the internet, across
1:06:04
the Internet, which allowed everyone to become a broadcaster quite simply. Right,
1:06:12
you can now take audio, You can take your own audio. We can
1:06:15
take this program, we can put it into a digital form as an MP
1:06:18
three file, and then we can distribute it wherever we want to send it.
1:06:21
You no longer need a radio station, you know longer need a television
1:06:26
station to become your own broadcaster. You're a broadcaster. You can shoot video,
1:06:30
you can shoot audio, record audio, and send it and you're broadcasting.
1:06:35
So that was the thing that revolutionized it. Right, I can do
1:06:41
stuff from my home home studio right now and just go global with it.
1:06:47
So that's the biggest thing. Pretty amazing. But and that was that's also
1:06:56
what happened to print, right the internet also may print. Everyone could become
1:07:01
a writer. Pretty amazing. Texter Seth from Charlestown. I hope I'm not
1:07:11
too late on this text. Shame on me for not sending in real time.
1:07:15
But over the weekend, the missus and I went to our local farmers
1:07:17
market in Charlestown. Yes, Hoppy knows that one. That's where Hoppy's from.
1:07:24
Afterwards, since it was a little rainy, we got some local coffee,
1:07:27
probably three guys before the game coffee game day I probably, and shopped
1:07:31
around in a book record shop called Fuzzy Dog Books and Music in Charlestown.
1:07:38
We are both nineties kids, and we have over one hundred and fifty vinyls
1:07:43
in our collection and growing, some of which were handed down and some were
1:07:46
bought. Anyway, look what I found two minutes into shopping. I there
1:07:54
it is, said, I can't with you guys, thanks for another hilarious
1:08:00
episode. So there it is a Joe Cocker album set from Charleston. So
1:08:03
if you are a younger person, I strongly suggest that you spend a little
1:08:10
time on Joe Cocker, who is just an unbelievable iconic voice of the sixties.
1:08:17
And there was a documentary which I strongly just look up Joe Cocker documentary.
1:08:24
I don't know where it's available where I watched it, but it was
1:08:27
freaking awesome. His voice is just a wow. Can we go back in
1:08:33
and instead of naming Thursday's episode Spring Game Preview, just say that Joe Cocker
1:08:38
episode we could probably should for we could Accuracy's sake. Earlier in the program,
1:08:45
someone said p One Jennings is one of the most avid listeners now,
1:08:48
Jennings writes in great time this weekend as my buddy and I took in both
1:08:51
the spring game and the baseball game. Great to see both pats back on
1:08:56
the sidelines, and I hope this trend of having former players service head coaches
1:09:00
during the game continues. Baseball game was great too, great to see us
1:09:03
sellout crowd. See you all Friday in Charleston, So he will be there.
1:09:08
He is going at our event in Charleston coming up Friday, May three.
1:09:12
Now, how's he get off? He said, yeah, Friday May
1:09:15
third, go to wv SCPA dot org to buy tickets. Hey, how's
1:09:17
he get off of work? No, people they just can go off of
1:09:20
work when they want to. Is that how that works. I think I
1:09:23
think some people can. Well people they call that there's three letters. I
1:09:26
didn't know about what they call that PTO. I've never heard, never heard
1:09:30
that work, those three letters. But people say that stands for personal time
1:09:34
off. What a hell of a concept that is, Jennings using it to
1:09:39
come to the three guys. I love it, and I love the fact
1:09:41
that people have that opportunity to do that because I'll be quite honest with you,
1:09:45
that PTO thing. I'd never heard about that till about a month ago.
1:09:48
And people say you can actually leave work. They call that PTO.
1:09:54
That's a great, great invention. Whoevert whoever created PTO, hats off to
1:10:00
because we haven't had that here, not with Kerschieville around. I mean,
1:10:04
god forbid, if you say you're going to take a day off, I
1:10:09
mean something better have exploded or about four or five of your family members but
1:10:14
had to die in the same day, because otherwise we don't have that PTO.
1:10:20
Doug and Winfield scopes softball skipper, that'd be you and the who are
1:10:27
we kidding? We all know he's not there again. Great to have McAfee
1:10:33
so involved with the program. There's no bigger personality in sports media right now,
1:10:36
and his support and regular mentions of West Virginia are priceless. I agree
1:10:41
with that. We have all seen the videos of Pat liking to be in
1:10:45
front of the camera during his playing days. Here. You guys have been
1:10:47
around a long time. You've seen a lot of guys come and go.
1:10:49
Did Pat McAfee stand out as someone that you thought could have a career in
1:10:55
front of a camera or a microphone? Are there any other guys that you
1:11:00
would not have been surprised that if one day they would be in front of
1:11:02
a camera or microphone. No surprise whatsoever that Pat could make a career in
1:11:11
front of a microphone. But at the scope and the scale of it,
1:11:15
who would have ever thought that? I mean, he has become an absolute
1:11:20
icon in broadcasting. I will venture to say that his touch is as big
1:11:29
as any as any that we know. Think about agree with that, Think
1:11:35
about this daily show right the wrestling aspect of it, the ESPN game day
1:11:45
involved. I mean, it is an absolute unbelievable I've told this story before.
1:11:54
I first met him his first week on campus, when he arrived as
1:11:58
a freshman. He was over at a at a cookout event with some folks
1:12:02
that we knew, and he got a call to say, can can Brad
1:12:05
come over here. There's a guy here that's a football player. I'd like
1:12:09
to have somebody to talk to him and break come home with us. I
1:12:12
said, I'd sure, we'll go over come hot dog and Hamburg walk in.
1:12:15
I can still picture him as if it was yesterday. I mean,
1:12:17
it took me about three seconds for me to think that he didn't need me
1:12:21
to come over to have somebody to talk to here. Once I saw he
1:12:26
was kicked back on the couch, arms up, legs crossed, and was
1:12:30
I you've told up out of his seat immediately as a whatever that was seventeen
1:12:34
or eighteen year old freshman again that had been here a week and instantly had
1:12:41
personality and charisma. So I'm with you. I didn't know he'd become the
1:12:44
biggest media star in the business in twenty twenty four as we sit here today,
1:12:47
but you could tell he had loads of personality and would be just as
1:12:50
far successful, just funny as hell, I'm money and bust three. He
1:12:55
would come on bus three even like it wasn't even like he would come back
1:12:58
and say I'm not I'm not hanging my those other guys. I'm coming back
1:13:00
here with you guys. That's what he would do. I'm hanging with you
1:13:02
guys back here. Yeah, the best. I do think it's without naming
1:13:05
names because we'd miss somebody because there's just so many of them. But I
1:13:09
do think there's something that tells you right away which of these guys are going
1:13:14
to be ultra ultra successful. A ton of them go on to be successful.
1:13:17
There's a few that achieve a higher level, and I think you can
1:13:20
tell pretty quickly in the personalities. Another one he was asking about others that
1:13:24
you knew Anthony Beck right away, he had magnetism. John Thornton was one.
1:13:30
John thort right. Absolutely, you just knew Rashid right away. I
1:13:34
always use this a barama. I've told this story before. So in my
1:13:38
role in the department, I was always on all the football trips, but
1:13:41
I was one of those people. I was always there, but I didn't
1:13:45
necessarily interact with a player or I wasn't sports information getting them to interviews.
1:13:48
But I was always there. It always it's about one hundred percent hit rate.
1:13:53
The guys that made an effort to come up and talk that I got
1:13:56
to know pretty well went on to be very very successful. Guys showed a
1:13:59
little bit deeper level of understanding, an awareness of who's around the program,
1:14:03
of who's who who to talk to, an ability to talk to people you
1:14:08
don't know. Right, That's a life skill that served all those guys we
1:14:11
just mentioned did that and had that. I always thought that was a good
1:14:14
barometer. Reid Williams. Reid was right up there. That was I just
1:14:17
had another one the top my hand, right, Wiley was one, right,
1:14:19
and dog On, I just had another one that was an absolute.
1:14:25
M m m m m m m m mmmm. Heck, dog gone it.
1:14:30
But I was going to say Reid was an absolute. Mike Logan really
1:14:36
did a good job communicating all of the time. Offensive lineman. You know,
1:14:45
Kevin Cocain. Kevin Cocain had a great relationship with him. He is
1:14:49
like he's like the fed in FedEx does great, great things, really super
1:14:57
personable. Just those guys they just kind of get it before most other guys
1:15:01
get it. That's what it is, right, Avon Avon Coburn was well.
1:15:08
Avon's really really good. Quincy Wilson Quinn is another one. Quin Quincy
1:15:14
defined. Quincy defined like understanding it and getting it, personality and personality,
1:15:18
being able to talk to people. Absolutely, we've had something. We could
1:15:23
go on and on. There's been a bunch. Here's the thing I'll close
1:15:26
with this that as much criticism that college Athletics takes upon itself and as many
1:15:34
missiles that are fired at how the system is a bad system or this thing
1:15:39
doesn't work and this person's getting screwed and that person's getting screwed, it works.
1:15:45
It actually, in spite of the NCAA and its stupid rules, it
1:15:50
works. And we could do countless listings of people that have come through that
1:16:00
have been just these huge successes. I mentioned one earlier, Rico Tyler.
1:16:05
I mean Rico Tyler grew up tough and hard in Pittsburgh area, comes down
1:16:12
here, gets his degree, goes to Fairmont State, and now, as
1:16:15
I said, he is a vice president at DePaul University. Just that is
1:16:19
the success, right that is just goes to show you in all of the
1:16:23
guys that have come through, successful business people through how many lawyers. Jay
1:16:29
Kelchner super successful in the space that he's in, you know, John,
1:16:34
I mean, I just Kevin White goes on to be a judge. Yeah,
1:16:36
I don't want to say names because when I say names, I also
1:16:41
don't mention so many that have been just wow, hundreds upon hundreds upon hundreds,
1:16:46
and that's just here, that's not across college sports. And I think
1:16:49
you're right. I think one of college sports self inflicted wounds is the lack
1:16:55
of good pr they give themselves. They allow the arrows to be slung and
1:17:00
the missteps to be publicized and can't get out of their own way. I
1:17:03
mean a lot of those are self inflicted. But there are hundreds upon thousands
1:17:08
of great stories, and not just in football, across all sports, with
1:17:12
some really wonderful student athletes just you don't hear enough about. But there's literally
1:17:16
hundreds thousands just at this at West Virginia. And if you were to talk
1:17:20
to Don Neelan, and we have when he's been here in the past,
1:17:24
that to him, those for a coach that did it for a long time,
1:17:28
those are the greatest gifts that they have from their coaching. Don would
1:17:33
tell you he doesn't really remember, you know, the wins and all that
1:17:38
kind of stuff. Sure he'll remember some wins and some things like that.
1:17:42
They remember the losses unfortunately more, but it's what their players are doing now
1:17:47
that makes them the happiest. That's the greatest thing that they take away from
1:17:51
their experience is being able to get a phone call on any day of the
1:17:56
week from a guy that calls them and says, hey, coach, it's
1:18:00
so and so well just wanted to check in out you. Okay, what
1:18:03
are you doing now? That is their victory at the end of it.
1:18:08
That was the greatest victory that they had no question because they why is it?
1:18:12
Why is it? Because if you've got the if you've got the ability
1:18:15
or the opportunity in the course of your career to change anyone's life and make
1:18:20
it positive, a positive impact, that's great. If you can do that
1:18:25
to one person in your career, that's awesome. But when you're a coach,
1:18:29
you open yourself up, especially football, to do it to hundreds and
1:18:32
hundreds and hundreds of people over the course of a career. That's like the
1:18:36
greatest victory of all And that's why these guys are so revered. All Right,
1:18:43
we've said enough for episode five hundred and fifty. Super Thanks and a
1:18:47
