1:36
I's proud of you, hey, you know, always always enjoy you
1:41

1:44

1:49
folks APG. For some weird reason out we all love PGPG are my favorite
1:53
people. Man now LEEPG alone, stop being me to PG. So if
1:57
you watch the end of the Sunday sh and you wonder that ended really abruptly
2:02
and kind of awkwardly. So my wife and Jay were in on with with
2:07
some of my boys to grab me and take me to the Irish pub before
2:10
I had to leave at five o'clock in the morning on an airplane. So
2:15
so if if you're watching it, you're like, that's really awkward. I
2:17
didn't know about it, obviously, and so Everyboddy walks up bangs on the
2:23
door, and so I didn't have any any idea, so it was it
2:27
was. It was beautiful though, but yeah, Jay, I got to
2:29
go to the land of South Carolina, and I made some new friends and
2:32
they're watching the show tonight with us, and so so we didn't We ran
2:38
a big contest for work and I got to hand away a one hundred thousand
2:40
dollars check to a family and that and so they're watching tonight. So skip
2:47
my man. He is won in a million. He won the hundred thousand
2:52
dollars I had sponsored by Still and his uh, his lovely wife Elizabeth is
2:58
watching too, and she you got to find out that I talked for a
3:00
living because she sat next to me at dinner. And then I got to
3:04
make a good friend because they showed me some pictures. They're big Clemson fans,
3:08
and one of the boys, Grayson, uh had a picture with avitable
3:14
son and so they loved they loved BV and so Mills, Grayson, skip
3:20
Elizabeth, thanks for tuning in. I'm so happy that, uh you know
3:23
that I could do something cool for that. So uh they're skipping the comments.
3:27
I love it. I love it so but yeah, other than that,
3:29
man, I'm ready to talk some talk, some fun because it's that
3:32
July content and it's always fun to talk about. Yeah, I mean,
3:37
it's list season, right, we talk about this going from this usually hits
3:40
you right after spring ball. That's when everybody in the portal closes. That's
3:46
when everybody starts to figure out, Okay, what team is, what what
3:49
players they added? This, that and the other, and all those conversations
3:52
begin. And so for me, I'm like, all right, we gotta
3:58
figure out a way to make this like entertaining and fun in some capacity.
4:01
Right, That's where the struggle comes in. But we got some fun stuff
4:04
and I got another topic. So we've got we're runners down real quick.
4:09
And for me, y'all know, I took some time off for the fourth
4:12
My birthday is on Sunday, which is always funny. I'm exactly one week
4:15
after Coop as far as birthdays go, he's the seventh. I'm the fourteenth,
4:19
and so I took some time away for my birthday because next week after
4:25
y'all. As y'all know, I joined locked on Sooners. That got me
4:29
a credential to SEC Media Day. So I'm gonna be down there at SEC
4:32
Media Days. I'll be there Tuesday when Venables is up there. Hopefully I'm
4:36
selected to ask a question, ask a question to some of the players.
4:42
I do plan on going live on Wednesday night. I actually plan on probably
4:45
coming back on I was gonna stay the whole week, but I'm probably gonna
4:47
come back on Wednesday so I can be quote unquote productive at work and but
4:55
we'll probably go live when I get back in town and make all that happen.
4:58
So pretty excited about SEC Media Day and all of that. But there's
5:03
a few things to jump into. So the first topic going to jump into
5:06
before we get into all the meat and potatoes of more lists. Paul Fine
5:12
Baumb said something recently that you know, your boy kind of was like,
5:15
oh word, he he likes us a lot. So if you checked us
5:20
out on Lockdown as soon as we talked about it, they're pretty in depth.
5:25
And I'm gonna pull this up real quick because that's I think it's two
5:28
topics that's really jumped out. Let me grab it real quick and give you
5:32
all the exact quote. So, yeah, this is what Paul fine Bomb
5:36
said about Oklahoma, Now brace yourself. Fine Bomb, you know, is
5:41
known for being an SEC homer. It's a very intriguing and it's very endearing
5:46
feature about him, and I appreciate him for it. But this is what
5:47
he said talks about Oklahoma coming forward, right, He said, they took
5:54
a bump and a hit after Lincoln Riley left. They had to reprogram the
5:59
entire place, reboot it. From a vibe standpoint, I think the program.
6:02
I think this year, if they can land somewhere between eight and four
6:05
and ninety three, they'll be okay considering their schedule, because everybody's only downgrading
6:12
our chances of going winning ten games is because of our schedule. But beinn
6:15
Bum said, but I don't have any doubt Oklahoma's clearly on the way back.
6:21
And he raved about reinventables and the way the staff is constructed, the
6:26
culture change, just the vibe and feeling difference and so coop. When you
6:30
hear that, does that get you excited about Oklahoma going forward? Like hearing
6:34
that someone that's been in the SEC in the industry twenty thirty forty years of
6:39
doing this saying, oh, no, Oklahoma should be good. You know,
6:45
he has done a lot of stuff in the past where you know,
6:47
he says stuff to kind of get people riled up. But this is starting
6:51
to become a recurring theme with a lot of these more national people because they're
6:56
starting to kind of look at the proof, right, you got to have
6:59
proof of concept. And Oklahoma has always been good, whether it was the
7:03
Big Eight, the Big twelve. You know, so expecting that Brent Vinnables,
7:09
who has played in the Big Boy League, you know, as the
7:12
defensive coordinator a Clemson you can't. I mean you look at the staff and
7:16
how he's putting these things together, how he's built the culture. You know,
7:19
he was crazy for doing the you know, if you commit no more
7:23
visits. Everybody was you know, kind of crazy about that a few years
7:27
ago. And now you know, you don't see five six, seven,
7:30
eight people who are you know, who are leaving the class like you know
7:34
somebody out west. Sorry Trojan fight love you brother, but you know these
7:40
guys are staying on. And so I talked about it on Sunday night.
7:45
Is you know, if you are going to remodel a house, it's easier
7:47
if you just got the whole thing and you got to go through a little
7:50
bit of growing pains and building pains right there. But it makes it so
7:55
much easier rather than shifting things around, and it just takes a little bit
7:59
longer. So yeah, fine, Baum's starting to come around. People are
8:03
starting to look and going, hold on a second, why are we so
8:05
excited about Texas after a finally a successful season when OHU has been dragging them
8:11
for the past fifteen years. And so it's not just Binebaum a lot more
8:16
folks. There's still some that are a little crazy out there. But just
8:22
to think that you is going to show up in the SEC and struggle to
8:26
win seven games, I mean, you're just not looking at facts. It's
8:28
your pure emotions and you're just crazy takes. So don't buy into that stuff.
8:33
Because BV has done a great job putting this together, great recruiting classes
8:37
and etcetera. Well, I mean, you know me, I try to
8:41
I maintain my purestness when it comes to just the sport and enjoying it.
8:45
And I see where the Texas hype does show, and it's outside of the
8:48
twelve and two season last year. But just the fact that they're bringing back
8:52
their entire offensive line and their quarterback, right, this is a three years
8:56
the sark with his quarterback. That's why I'm so bullish. Also, if
9:01
you've watched any of my videos over the last couple of weeks, why I'm
9:03
so heavily bullish on Oklahoma going forward. Is the exact same reason we're now
9:11
the third year in Brent Vnables implementation of this defense, and traditionally he goes
9:16
up. And that's the one thing I can give a shout out to the
9:16
Texas guys. You know, with Nino and Steven over there, fan perspective,
9:22
right, fanatic perspective. They both said, yeah, Ohu's defense is
9:24
gonna be legit this year because we know Venables, this is what he does.
9:28
And they both completely admitted to it straight up, like ya, y'all,
9:31
Devent's gonna be legit. When I was talking about the five and they
9:33
actually most of them included Oklahoma in their five teams in the SEC they feel
9:39
like has a chance to actually win the title. The pushback that everybody gives
9:45
is the exact same thing. It's our November schedule is brutal, right,
9:48
and travel to Missouri, who should be good. They have no excuse not
9:54
to be good. They could be good, right luckily Main's in there.
9:58
But then you have I'm gonna come into the crib and you travel to Death
10:01
Valley to end the season, and that's where everybody's like, hey man,
10:05
those ebbs and flows there, there's a lot to stomach at that moment.
10:09
Right. Luckily we got them bye week before we play you know, Texas,
10:13
we kind of get a primer with South Carolina before we play Oh Miss,
10:18
Right, so I get it. I get the Texas piece as I
10:22
really dissected deeply. But now I'm starting to get why every while a lot
10:24
of people, and this is what I'm hearing a lot now, they're all
10:28
calling Oklahoma They're a sleeper, right Coop, Like they're saying, Oklahoma's a
10:33
sleeper. We gotta stop sleeping on what they're doing. We gotta stop sleeping
10:35
on eighty six returning production on the defense side of the ball. You gotta
10:41
stop sleeping on that stuff because that's the thing that's going to help the trajectory
10:46
of what Oklahoma's trying to do. So I'm excited about that part, but
10:50
I love seeing it fine. Bamb came around and pointed out that, you
10:54
know, hey, guys, Oklahoma's still Oklahoma. We gotta stop pretending like
10:58
they're not so thanke out for pulling up hit that. Like, but if
11:01
you new to the channel, subscribe, if you're listening rate review, give
11:03
us five stars and think we deserve it. Give us five anyway, Gifted
11:07
Coop. Before we get into this good news around this coach that we just
11:13
added that probably should get a couple of y'all excited, I want to talk
11:16
about schedule. So, as we all know, twenty twenty five, Oklahoma's
11:24
expected to play against Michigan, Right, so when I go to the OUs
11:31
future schedule, you pull up their future schedule really quickly, just so I
11:35
can be as accurate as possible. We're gonna go twenty twenty five. It's
11:39
supposed to be Illinois State, Michigan Temple, and then Kent State would be
11:43
the games, right, But then you go into twenty twenty six, that's
11:48
when you got UTEP, Michigan and the Lobos so New Mexico. That is
11:58
well, if you didn't see it today, there was an announcement made that
12:03
UCLA and Georgia have canceled their home and home series, which was supposed to
12:11
begin next year. So them canceling their home and home has everybody asking the
12:16
question is the SEC going to nine conference games? Because if they are,
12:24
it makes sense to cancel that UCLA game because you're going to add an additional
12:28
tough team in conference. We've been anticipating that happening in twenty six, which
12:35
is why Oklahoma. If that does happen, there's a chance Oklahoma will cancel
12:39
the Michigan game because they if they move to that, it will be tough
12:45
to move the Michigan game around and it would force Oklahoma to not be able
12:56
to fulfill the contract from going home and home. That's really where it lies
13:00
because we've got four teams next year and then we've got only three going forward
13:09
because of that, So Coop, you think that there's a chance they're gonna
13:13
cancel this, Yeah, And I think that you kind of have to look
13:18
at a couple of different things. There's also, you know, starting to
13:22
be the conference realignment questions starting to come on, so you know, hearing
13:26
some stuff with Florida State and Clemson, you know, with stuff about the
13:30
Big Twelve. We just are in this perpetual movement and I don't think that
13:35
anything's going to stop these the two super conferences. It just it's getting closer
13:41
and closer. But if this just solely is going to nine SEC games,
13:46
you know, you don't really need it because you get great revenue and so
13:50
if George is the first one you know to pull out and you know,
13:54
maybe say listen, this is where we're going. Maybe it's something that's you
13:58
know, pros have started hearing from Sankei and the rest of the folks of
14:01
the SEC, so you know it, let's let's let's see. I would
14:05
love to play you know, Sharon Moore and the Wolverines here in a couple
14:09
of years. But these with the twelve team playoff, you can deal with
14:16
the regular season a little bit better and then you get more of these great
14:20
matchups in the first and second round of the of the playoffs. So I
14:26
just to plan anywhere past this year at this point in time, it seems
14:31
just like a tough pill to swallow. And so I mean, at least,
14:35
like you know, Georgia, Oklahoma, Texas, people in the SEC,
14:39
we kind of know what we're gonna be dealing with. You still have
14:43
everybody in the ACC, everybody in the Big twelve, and then the two
14:46
folks out there in the West still that are you know, just how do
14:50
you feel super comfortable confident about what the future holds for those places because you
14:56
know that SEC and the Big ten are running laps right now, and you
15:01
can't let them continue and get that far out, especially when the TV revenue.
15:05
Uh, these stations are going to grasp and clean to all of the
15:09
TV revenue that they can do, because live sports still is the is the
15:13
strongest, is the absolute strongest, you know, pull on national television.
15:18
Yeah, no, you're right. And there's the two conferences that everybody care
15:20
the most about. It's the two conferences everybody's watching. And so if this
15:24
is the situation where we're seeing that the mega conferences are gonna hit, the
15:31
question is is the ACC the one that's gonna go down or will the ACC
15:35
start? You know, if if Florida State and Clemson, this is the
15:39
rumor, Heartlands College Football put out an article there's rumors that the Big twelve
15:48
and Florida State Clemson our negotiations potentially pull them into the conference. I asked
15:54
the question, do does the ACC try to replace them with like UCF,
15:58
Do they go after West Virginia, you know, the schools that are like
16:00
close to the ACC, that are actually in a C C territory, Like
16:06
do they try to you know, replace them with those which makes sense,
16:11
right, I'm curious to what they what they do that to try to salvage
16:15
themselves. They're I mean, they're losing massive markets. But another thing they
16:18
could do they go to Texas A and M. Right, you can get
16:21
Texas, Texas A and M won't out. They've been won't out. They
16:25
hate the fact that Texas is back and so up next to them, right,
16:27
they gotta play Texas. They don't want to play Texas, so they
16:30
try to find a way to get about. So that that's probably one that
16:33
you could do, right, But it's it's kind of it's fascinating just seeing
16:41
how this is all gonna lay out. But we got time, right,
16:42
we got probably another year as the lawsuits are still piling up and going between
16:48
Florida State, Clemson, North Carolina and the a SEC itself. Yeah,
16:53
we're going to Yeah, it's gonna be an extremely extremely interesting go on at
17:00
So all right, last thoughts on that Coop as far as schedule wise,
17:04
who if we replace Michigan, who do you want us to take next season?
17:08
Because if we do it, next season will be the game that will
17:11
be replaced unless we kick the twenty twenty six game out to twenty twenty seven.
17:21
Michigan has States. Technically you could do that. They want to,
17:26
but will you get it? You got you got the you got the frozen
17:29
on Jay, So so may screenshotting you right now. But I'm gonna say
17:33
it. I think you go first Oklahoma State and you say, hey,
17:38
let's let's let's let's get this back going. And then maybe you know,
17:42
you go at Texas Tech or you know, I don't know what. The
17:45
trajectory of Baylor right now doesn't look super so you know, maybe you can
17:51
rekindle an old big twelve foe, you know, in the twenty five or
17:55
twenty six. You know, I see Hank says Cincinnati. Cincinnati's a bad
18:00
call too, so you know, something like that. But you know,
18:03
maybe from a strategic and a recruiting standpoint, we've been pulling some folks from,
18:10
you know, the Dakota's here recently, and a lot of people up
18:12
from like the New England area, So maybe you go after like a Syracuse.
18:15
Maybe you've placed somebody from up there. We played Syracuse when Donovan McNabb
18:19
was in the house, and so I mean he came to you know,
18:22
Norman and put it down on the Sooners. I believe it was ninety seven
18:27
or ninety eight, I can't quite remember off the top of my head,
18:30
but you know that's a recruiting ground that we continue to do pretty well on.
18:33
So you know, maybe you pull Boston College somebody up there. But
18:38
if it's just to get better TV ratings, maybe an old time Big twelve
18:42
fo. If it is for recruiting purposes, maybe you go, like like
18:47
I was saying up there, Well, the problem you run into with that
18:49
is Oklahoma State doesn't have any games available either. They'd have to buy somebody
18:52
out to do it, and you know they're not going to do today,
18:55
right. The closest game that Oklahoma State has I think is like ten year
19:00
years down the line, and so we could potentially, you know, rekindle
19:04
that twenty twenty nine is the soonest they'd be able to add. But they
19:07
actually travel to Alabama that year, so they're definitely not playing US. Oh
19:11
yeah, so it would between thirty be the soonest. But I did look
19:15
at Michigan Michigan schedule, the way that this is set up here, Michigan
19:22
has Texas down a lot, probably doesn't need Jay. You're you're frozen again,
19:30
buddy, So I would say this is you're looking at these schedules and
19:36
when you see some of the schedule again, like I say, it's I
19:41
don't know if you actually make a play to make a change, right yet
19:45
you start having those conversations. I don't know. Maybe that athletic department can
19:49
get Sam Presty on it and come up with some stuff because that guy's rot.
19:53
But it is going to have to be something along the lines of,
19:57
like I said, either what's going to drive the ratings? What what's something
20:00
that we want to see there? Is it going to be, you know,
20:03
could you go after a Baylor or could you go after somebody else?
20:07
So if you guys, you know, hop in the comments. Appreciate everybody
20:10
pulling up. And again just you know, Jay is uh, he's not
20:14
anywhere where he should be having any crazy internet controls. I think he's going
20:18
to have to mobile hospas. My ISP is Cox Communications. Y'all know that,
20:22
y'all. They give me all right, I complain about them like literally
20:26
every single day. Yeah right, So but it's funny because I hear you
20:30
talk in the entire time, but I can't see me. But yeah,
20:33
be back. We're back at this point, No, I was saying that
20:38
Michigan has Texas and then let me see Michigan is sitting here they kick Texas
20:48
out the can to twenty seven, so they play Texas this year and in
20:52
twenty seven is the return game to Texas. Technically we could go to twenty
20:59
eight twenty twenty eight. So far they don't have anything on their schedules,
21:03
so we could possibly do the can kicking at that point. I don't think
21:10
that's a bad idea, is it? I mean, is it is it?
21:12
Is it a bad idea? It's not a bad idea. I mean,
21:15
if you can get that game set up, you get the game set
21:18
up, and yeah, this is not brought to you by Cox Communications.
21:22
They don't have the little robots that ain't working in your in your house.
21:26
So so yeah, guys, if you if you're watching and you're seeing,
21:30
you're you're good right now. Jay. But if you're watching you're seeing and
21:32
it breaks out, I'll try to kind of move on as Jay's etch you
21:37
sketch, you know, graphics come back into play, So you're good now,
21:40
though I hate it. Anyway, let's move on to the next topic.

22:44
with that. I want to talk about the latest addition to the coaching staff.
22:52
So former Oklahoma defensive back Jeremiah Credale returns randomly, be honest, randomly.
23:00
So Credells was a twenty nineteen. You know, recruit was out of
23:07
a matter day at a matter day I'm sorry, matter day out Santa Ana,
23:11
California, corner safety and he had to medically retire due to concussions.
23:21
Right after the medical retirement, he transitioned into coaching, was a student assistant,
23:27
did all of that stuff. He left and went to USF with with
23:37
LD Washington, the former wide receiver coach. He followed him out there,
23:40
took a role there last season. Then he went to Levy's staff a Mississippi
23:48
State most recently, but then out of shock Parker through reports that he's here.
23:57
Now he's back with Oklahoma. He's on the coaching stafford Oklahoma's a coop
24:03
seeing that bringing him back because they because he picked Oklahoma over Oregon and like
24:08
everybody was crystal balling into Oregon and he picked Oklahoma instead underneath Grinch. Uh,
24:15
how you feel about h this return? Because I'm be honest, I'm
24:19
pretty excited to see former players come back and coach. He worked Underventables before
24:26
he took that job at USF, and so he's he's understanding what the system
24:30
is. How do you feel about this higher? You know, it's great
24:33
and it's about the family. Uh, you know, you saw him coming
24:36
back and then you know just you know, kind of right along the family
24:41
line. You know, rest in peace, Tomorio pleasant Uh Tomorio passed away,
24:47
you know, unexpectedly, and man, I just you know, it's
24:49
it's cool to see the past players all rally, you know, on the
24:53
bird and you know, just you know, give the love, and you
24:56
know, I hate seeing stuff like that, but that's it is what Venables
25:00
is trying to bring back to the you know, to Norman, is that
25:03
that absolute, just unbreakable family environment, not just with the fans and the
25:08
players, but players to players, previous players, and you got to respect,
25:14
you know, where you came from and the people that put the you
25:17
know, and when you when you watch the intro videos at Oklahoma, it's
25:19
always been the same thing. It's you know, Bob Stoop's saying out that
25:22
no one player is bigger than the program, and you know, just the
25:26
Oklahoma dynasty and you know, the Selman brothers and so you know, I
25:30
love seeing Credell back in because he's a guy who is invested. He spent
25:34
a lot of his time here and he did need to go out and he
25:38
needed to go do new things. And sometimes Jay, you know, we
25:41
see like Josh Hippel that you know, it's not always the best feelings when
25:48
you leave, but I mean, eventually you've got so many family connections with
25:52
these ex players and everything, and so I'm excited to see Jeremiah Cradell back
25:56
because again it's it's another younger guy I can get out there and help with
26:00
the unlimited everything that is just you know, college football, there's just no
26:04
more you know, limits on pretty much anything at this point. But you
26:08
know, so if you can bring in staff that can work with defensive backs
26:11
and can learn right besides Jabali, what happens is you also, you know,
26:17
start developing the future of your coaching staff. Because as cool as this
26:21
coaching staff is and you love Todd Bains, Michael chavs Uh, you know,
26:25
we we save the props to EJ. Brandon Hall, some of them
26:30
are going to eventually leave. And so who do you bring in? Do
26:32
you want to either want to home grow your you know, these coaches and
26:36
these grad assistants, or do you just always have to hope that you can
26:38
go out and get somebody else and bring them in the program and hope that
26:41
it fits in. Well if you just you know, you raise them and
26:45
uh, you know, one of my old coaches said, you know,
26:48
people do what their coach to do or what they're allowed to do. And
26:52
I think if you just allow your program to everybody to do their own thing
26:55
at their own position, it's hard to kind of know where everybody's at.
26:57
So if if you coach, if they're all coaching the same way that Brent
27:00
Vinibles is doing, then you know what you got. And so it's great
27:04
because I'd like to see him come in, you know, get his flowers,
27:07
do some good work here, and if he needs to move on and
27:11
you know, go, you know, stretch him out and potentially like a
27:14
DV you know, coach Roll or you know, his assistant defensive coordinator somewhere
27:18
else. You know, it just helps that you know, Brent Vnimle's that
27:21
Oklahoma coaching tree. So I'm all for bringing guys back. That's my favorite
27:25
part. And you mentioned this earlier, as we're bringing that family environment back,
27:30
right, you're getting the old people. When we had the day you
27:32
had all those Heisman Trophy winners in town just hanging out. They had that
27:36
panel recently with like Tommy Harris, Jerald McCoy and William Laman, right,
27:42
Roll Williams, all those people coming back. But we missed that, right,
27:47
that was a huge part of Oklahoma before the last regime took over and
27:51
bounced. We loved embracing the older players and coming to talk. It's funny.
27:56
I actually saw Jay Wooler, you know, Caden's pops, was you
28:00
know, on on the Bird earlier today and Gerald McCoy was talking to him
28:06
about about Caden. He said he watched him, said gave some suggestions about
28:10
what he needs to do. But then he said he'll be in town to
28:11
work with him soon. Dude, that's huge. You got Gerald McCoy,
28:15
pro NFL pro bowler, right first round pick coming through saying no, I
28:19
like his style. I got some things I need to work on him with
28:22
and he's gonna come and work with them on it. Yeah, potentially he's
28:26
hit it everywhere. He's gonna probably be in the Tampa Bay Ring of Honor,
28:29
like he is going to be one of the you know, one of
28:30
the folks. I mean, like you see it down in the Cowboys and
28:33
you know when you see guys like that and their names are up in those
28:37
stadiums. I mean, think of how many players play in these stadiums.
28:40
So Gerald McCoy, Tommy Harris, some of those roots, you know,
28:42
Teddy Layman, Rocky Kalmus, you know, all these cats. You know,
28:47
we watched Trent Williams and Lane Johnson and it is so cool because you're
28:51
seeing these characters like Lane Johnson is on the you know, with was he
28:55
with Kelsey in WWE a few weeks ago and you know, and now he's
29:00
still in the in the league. So he did a little less than than
29:03
Kelsey did. But you know, these are cool things to to really do
29:07
that because he was talking about Max Crosby and I saw that what you were
29:11
talking about is, you know, he said, you know, he tries
29:14
to model his game after Max Crosby Woollard does and just without the tats.
29:18
And so for Gerald McCoy to be like, hey, listen, I feel
29:21
comfortable enough to really, you know, just reach out and coat I mean,
29:25
just offer my advice, because hey, Gerald, Annie he is he's
29:32
he's going places here soon because he's got so many irons in the fire and
29:36
that so for that guy to take his time, man, it just that's
29:41
special. Yeah. I love seeing that. He always wants to, you
29:45
know, reach back out to the players and everything. Unfortunately he doesn't want
29:48
to come on the show with me. He kind of me up a few
29:52
times or whatnot. It's okay, one day I'm gonna get Jerald McCoy owner
29:55
and I'm gonna tell him, like, dog, you have to beat that
29:56
meaning to me, Dog, I was trying to just talk ball, which
30:00
actually I want. The reason why I want Gerald McCoy on here is I
30:03
want him to talk about some of the players we have and what does he
30:06
see as far as skill sets, Right, I want to talk. I
30:08
want to get to the nerdy nuance stuff of football. I like that's my
30:11
thing, right, the stuff that makes me sit here and my eyes get
30:15
glossed over, like I don't know what he's talking about, but I love
30:18
it. Right. I absorbed that like a sponge. But yeah, now
30:21
he kind of ripped me up like three or four ways. Actually, it's
30:22
funny because the tweet popped up from it was a year ago that I yeah,
30:29
right now, it's like the third or fourth of July or something like
30:32
that or whatnot. But it was like it was that day and I saw
30:33
it popped up on my feed when I was looking at something. I was
30:37
like, oh, hey, that was a year ago that Jeral McCoy told
30:40
me to go. That's myself. That's hilarious in a nice way. One
30:45
day, if I see him, if I see him at one of these
30:51
media days, I'm gonna run up on him and be like, hey,
30:52
bro, you have to be so mean to me in public, be mean
30:56
to me in private. But no, but no, we're gonna work on
31:00
it. One of these days. We'll get him on here. I know
31:02
he's been doing some live stuff as even do a little content in himself or
31:04
whatnot, So we'll figure it out, all right, man, Thank you
31:10
out for pulling up again. Hit the light button, the chune, subscribe
31:12
hop in the comments. I do expect to see a lot of folks down
31:21
there. They see media days look sooner in Texas. Don't be, don't
31:23
be, don't beat, don't be rubbing in my face. Don't rub it
31:26
in my face. Yeah I know Teddy and ND. Yeah they all were
31:29
former players, so they love each other. Right, they hate, you
31:32
know, meet people like me, so I can't I don't win. But
31:36
besides that, EA's Sports ratings, right, a couple of things we can
31:42
talk about and take this into multiple different directions. You get the EA Sports
31:45
ratings that came out, and I saw it top one hundred players, and
31:53
I was a little intrigued. Let me pop this up because I think it's
31:57
one that you know, few of us we've got our questions on. Let's
32:04
pull this up. We're gonna share this beautiful screen. But Coop, we
32:12
had two guys that made it in the top one hundred, just two kind
32:17
of feels like that was the level of disrespect we were gonna get. But
32:21
you know whatever, opening preview, that's what I wanted. There we go,
32:29
there we go. When you saw that come across, Yeah, tell
32:36
me what did you think? I mean, doesn't mean a damn thing,
32:44
you know, I don't think so. Just you know, listen, we
32:47
all are gonna buy the game. But EA Sports, I mean they are
32:52
taking full advantage of the same thing that Josh Paton does, the same thing
32:55
that Paul Finebaum does, the same thing that anybody goes out and put something
33:00
out there. It's just to try to get more, uh, you know,
33:06
more eyeballs, which is crazy because I don't think and I think I
33:12
might be stealing this from Teddy because Teddy kind of went off on his show
33:15
from from Monday. It just absolutely makes me die laughing, just because it's
33:22
like EA Sports, like you guys, you're done, like right, like
33:25
what hype? Can you draw and drive? At this point? Like nobody's
33:30
forgot about this, you know, grown folks are like taking days off and
33:32
stuff like that. And even like the arch manning thing, like dude wasn't
33:37
in the game, Like how many more people are going to buy this game
33:42
now because arch maning is now part of the game, Like, was there
33:45
anybody who's like, you know, I'm really on the fence, Oh arch
33:47
is it? Yeah, I'm buying it download right now? So and full
33:52
the spadi I was, I'm lying, I've got I've got my I mean
34:00
I've got I still haven't, you know, bought a copy of the game.
34:02
And just because I'll probably wait until the night of or something like that,
34:07
because I expect that EA server to go on the struggle bus. I
34:10
know what Sooner scoop looks like, you know, during during like commitment day
34:15
a couple of years ago, and you know Carrie, and you know Carrie
34:19
has that thing, you know, Master Wired. But like I just you
34:22
know, I'm listen. I'm excited to play the game. But to be
34:25
honest, like I don't have a lot of bandwidth where I'm gonna be able
34:29
to put more than you know, maybe an hour or so a week into
34:30
it. But these ratings coming up is it's it's pretty funny just because who
34:37
was, like the who's the top is a defensive back out of tennise or
34:42
who was who was the top rated player? It was like a ninety six
34:45
Ollie Gordon. Ollie Gordon was Olly Gordon was up there. You had me
34:51
pull it up real quick. You had Ally Gordon, you had oh,
34:54
Will Johnson was your number one at ninety six. Will Campbell. Will Johnson
34:59
is the cor Michigan. Okay, Will Campbell hold a secon. Let me
35:04
let me just put this full screen. Seeah, I can see it because
35:06
it makes more sense for everybody. Yeah, and and like I think I
35:09
saw quin Shawn Judkins was like one slot lower than you know, Ollie Gordon.
35:15
And I mean, I don't know, it's everybody's going to go play
35:19
the game. You know, you see it in that and you see it
35:21
with Madden all the people are going, you know, I feel disrespected that
35:23
I'm not higher on it. Like listen, if that guy's a ninety six
35:28
and you're a crap player, that guy, that guy is gonna be a
35:30
crap player too. Like it is what it is, and everybody's gonna,
35:34
you know, recruit and if you're really a crazy person about this, you're
35:37
going to be on season two recruiting five stars and doing all that stuff and
35:42
have new players anyway, and so you know, so let's let's just be
35:46
honest, like I like seeing you know, because you look through here,
35:49
like Will Campbell, we're gonna play him, you know, James Pierce,
35:52
We're gonna play him. Uh, Travis Hunter being at number six, no
35:58
comment, let's here, I agree with it personally, that dude, I
36:02
just but I get you. He's great. But I mean, I don't
36:07
know. I've just never seen more hype over four wins in my life than
36:12
I see with Colorado. But I'm kind of surprised quin Sewan Junkson is number
36:16
nine, though he feels a little high. I mean, he showed out
36:23
last year and now he's going to go up there and what comment? Right,
36:31
Yeah, let's say you got these two Ohio State guys. One of
36:35
them came from Ole, miss the other one came from you know, Alabama,
36:38
in which we knew Caleb Downs was going to be that high. That's
36:40
just the you know, the expectation. But yeah, it's I just yeah,
36:47
right right right, so but no, it's it's I like that there's
36:52
zero people that are ninety nine's. I kind of wish they would have went
36:54
like old school, old school and went like lower in that because, like
37:00
I'm from the era of was an NBA Live ninety five or whatever they had,
37:07
like Michael Jordan had to put him in, put in a special code
37:10
to get him in the game, and his rating was like eighty eight.
37:15
He was the highest person in the game. Right. It made the game
37:16
a little bit more of a challenge. It was a fascinating concept. I
37:20
was like, that's weird, but it's not. Yeah techno goal with Bo
37:23
Jackson, where you can't I mean, as long as you have Bo Jackson,
37:27
you just mean you just weaved. Yeah, you just weave back and
37:30
forth and go you're gonna win it. Yeah. Bo was a beast.
37:34
But yeah, Pierce, but when I saw this, I think this is
37:37
what made it interesting for me the most outside of the fact that we had
37:42
two guys rated. I mean, you see, Bowman is a ninety is
37:47
a ninety and Stutsman was a ninety one. So we got two dudes that
37:51
are ranked in ninety plus. Can't complain about that, and the rest of
37:55
the team just need to prove themselves. But we get to see, like
37:59
you said, we will Campbell, we get to see against him on the
38:01
offensive line there LSU. We'll see James Pierce Junior, who is a top
38:05
three draft pick in the NFL. Everybody raves about him. We'll see him
38:08
also, But at the top ten, it's all we get to see in
38:13
the top one hundred. Oh boy, I see. I understand why everybody
38:17
is all over us as far as our schedule and how hard it is.
38:24
We see a lot of these top rate dudes a lot. That's why we
38:32
made the choice to come to the SEC. You know, it was that
38:35
these recruits want to play against the best. And that's the reason why Lincoln
38:40
Riley could not get defensive recruits here. That's the reason why Bret Vinnibles is
38:45
having it easier because he's a more defensive minded guy and we are now going
38:50
into the SEC, we wanted to go against the best because the thing has
38:53
always been, well, you don't do this against SEC, deepen, you're
39:00
doing against the Big twelve. And I'll say Big twelve has done a better
39:05
job defensively just overall for the past maybe two years. But you know,
39:09
most of that recency bias on the you know, Big twelve having crap defenses
39:14
came from us showing up with prolific offenses and then a mess on the other
39:20
side of the ball. And it's and that's coaching. And because I don't
39:23
want to take shots at previous players like that was coaching. Why do I
39:28
say it was coaching because Danny Stutsman looked lost at times. He was making
39:34
comments about, you know, wondering why it was a big deal that he
39:37
lined up in the right spot. Now he is going to Now he's on
39:40
the Walter Camp first team preseason, you know, as the first team linebacker.
39:45
So now people are going to start respecting the defense side, and that's
39:49
where the respects for OU is starting to climb. As hold on a second,
39:54
You're really good on the Okay, so you got Jehan Terry Dominic Williams
39:59
upfront, Okay, yeah, Danny Stutsman and then whoever in the middle,
40:02
and then he got Bowman in RSJ and Bowen and back like oh geez,
40:07
and then like people are still saying, our defensive acts overall are one of
40:10
the most scary things about the team. So yeah, it's it's we wanted
40:15
to be here. Yeah, I think I think one thing I really loved
40:20
to seeing is that, like Billy Bowman walks in here like a ninety something
40:28
in awareness, you got Danny Stutsman with a ninety seven in awareness. Yeah,
40:35
our defense is gonna be really good next season, y'all. Like I've
40:37
tried, I non timpering expectations on that. The expectations is defense to to
40:43
be looked like what SEC defense looks like. Right on top of that,
40:47
you know, I talked about it in the video when Phil Steel does his
40:52
his efficiency rating, he put Oklahoma at seven from last season, whereas the
40:57
NCAA had him like in the t right, And what he pointed out is
41:01
he has his curve is based upon the quarterback you go against, and he
41:07
you know, the Big twelve quarterbacks were a lot better than most. They
41:09
played against a lot of good talent and the one thing we did very good
41:13
at is that we didn't give up touchdowns, right that's massive in you know
41:21
what you do if you're giving up No, you're not giving up touchdowns like
41:24
that. Yeah, that's it's huge for what Oklahoma is building and doing so
41:30
long term, we've got it, right living that's a good question. I
41:35
don't know. They didn't show gentry. They only show like the top one
41:38
hundred, and the expectation is the rest of it's gonna start coming out the
41:45
line in the next couple of weeks or whatnot. So well, the game
41:51
comes out next month on Monday, so that's at least the early one,
41:55
yes, five days away. Technically, you know, if you pre order
41:58
it now, you can get early access. I think you could still pre
42:01
order and get early access. The game comes out in nineteenth, but early
42:06
three day access or whatever is Monday or something like that. And I'm like,
42:08
high key disappointed. I don't even want to say this out loud,
42:14
but I had to say it out loud. Now I gotta I gotta invite
42:20
coop. That I couldn't go through it kind of hurt my feelings. I'm
42:27
a little sad. So I got hit up a Leach report to come out
42:31
for the live stream in New York for this game on Monday and be one
42:37
of the creators out there to hang out. Monday starts sec manya days.
42:43
So it's like, dang, bro, why can we do this? Like
42:47
on the day lunch right, I could have flew out like Friday, right,
42:50
I'd been perfect. So hurt, man, hurt. So we'll we'll
42:53
well, hopefully one day I'll be able to be a part of something that
42:57
big. But that was that was a huge offer. I was excited and
42:59
get known. Fortunately I got couldn't do it. I just want to get
43:00
I just want to get my advice like Jay when I grow up. So,
43:04
oh, you're gonna get there. Don't worry. People are seeing you,
43:06
recognizing you, and you are starting to pop up, my boy.
43:08
That's the one thing I ain't concerned about. You are popping up and populating
43:13
everywhere, so that's a good thing. And you keep doing what you're doing.
43:15
Heck, we know that stuff's been placing your lap for the future,
43:20
so we're excited about that. Man. But yeah, I was a little
43:22
hard. Was like, dang, man, could I make this work?
43:25
But it makes a lot more sense to go rub some elbows and get to
43:28
know people down there. Media day being as the first one, that doesn't
43:31
look right for me to just show up late and all of that jazz,
43:36
even though only session I'm probably gonna go to is the Tuesday one. Anyway,
43:40
show up and go see oh you go see Venables, ask my one
43:45
question, see if I can. But yeah, it was no Lemmon,
43:52
you pre order so that you can get the game three days early. But
43:54
I don't know if they still doing that, I'm not sure. But yeah,
44:00
came his first media day. You right, you're right, media,
44:06
you gotta be the first one. Also, you have to get my man.
44:07
You have to get my man Grace and something from BV. So if
44:09
you can make it happen. I told him I was going to see a
44:13
BV shirt. But no, that's I mean, that's the cool thing is
44:17
as long as Kiff and don't do the old fake oh hello on the phone
44:22
thing to you like he did Stoyev. But yeah, I mean that's gonna
44:27
be. I mean, listen, the Big twelve Media Days, that the
44:30
hype around the Big twelve Media Days was this much. But last year and
44:36
everybody, get your can ready, last year is where we had competitive depth
44:39
come to life, right, and so now this year we got to go
44:43
to complimentary football. That's got to be the thing that we got to play
44:46
because, uh, you know, you're starting to hear people saying like they
44:50
could have a top three or five defense in the SEC. And then this
44:55
offensive line is coming together. And so for all the people who are really
44:59
really that Norman broke my system. His dog, dog Doggie, sorry to
45:05
hear that. Sorry that, Jason, I'm praying for your brother. That
45:08
hurts. I'm gonna PS two. I can send you. Yeah, you
45:14
have to blow him the deal every once in a while to what what up?
45:19
Coach? I what's going on? Appreciated man, thanks for pulling up.
45:23
But yeah, it's it's yeah, I know that I don't have the
45:29
time. I'm gonna I'm not gonna have the time to play like I want.
45:31
I know it. I mean that's something that that's my expectation. It's
45:36
doing this, making content, trying to keep the content rolling and paying attention
45:40
to the season. It's gonna be tough. I got mine pre ordered.
45:45
I plan on getting heavy in it in February, right when the season's over.
45:50
That's when I'm gonna be in hardcore. I probably won't drop a video
45:53
in February unless it's around someone committing just so I could game out right.
45:59
Hey, may even do some live streams. Y'all can watch me recruit if
46:01
y'all feel bored enough. But no, it's it's yeah, it's gonna be
46:06
this season. And I talked about this unlocked on sooners as we wrap things
46:10
up here, talked about this yet last on today's episode. This is gonna
46:15
be a really fun season, Coop. Right, Like, the the level
46:22
of fun we're gonna see this season is absurd. And so Kelly Ford dropped
46:27
his watchability rankings on watch his highest rated watchability and it's based upon the spreads
46:34
he creates and his ratings for the team. But the thing about this is
46:39
is that everything he's saying it's not wrong, right, it's it's when you
46:46
when you, when you look at it, it's one hundred makes sense.
46:51
Right. And so Oklahoma has seven games on here, Coop, we got
47:00
seven games within the top thirty on the list. It's pretty darn high,
47:06
right, Like, like, is there an argument that that could be not
47:08
that that's high? Right? Yeah? And so when I looked at this.
47:13
I'm like, man, this is gonna be a fun season. Like
47:20
just in general, this is gonna be the most fun Sooner fans have probably
47:25
had since two thousand, not because of winning, just because it's fun when
47:30
you see this the watchability. How excit are you getting about this? Man?
47:38
Here here's why. And again I'm gonna steal a thought that you know
47:43
we've talked about several times, is there's so much change in the SEC.
47:50
There's so many like the established coaches are I mean, like, what is
47:57
it there? You know how many coaches have won an SEC championship game?
48:02
Oh, that's currently there in the SEC today? Uh, Kirby Smart?
48:07
Is it one? Actually? Has Kirby won one? He has one?
48:10
One? Yeah? Yeah he won was it two years ago when they beat
48:14
down in Alabama? Yeah, it's just funny to me because I say that
48:16
real quick before you continue. It's because he's played in three and he's only
48:21
one from one, but he's won two national championships. Now, it's just
48:23
the funniest thing in the world. Will continue. It's the anti Oklahoma but
48:29
uh but yeah, I mean you've got that. And then outside of also
48:32
maybe Kirby Smart, like there's not a bunch of coaches that have been there
48:37
for more than three or four years. You've got new systems coming in in
48:40
a lot of different places. And what that really means is like there's a
48:45
lot of flipping that happens in the sec from a coaching perspective. And so
48:51
you saw Saban sit there for a decade plus, right, and you and
48:54
Kirby Smart's gone over there and he's done a great job. But everywhere else
48:59
it's just rinse, washer, repeat, you know, there's so many different
49:01
coaches and so that watchability, I think a lot of that is is really
49:07
cool because we your your Google search was is on the screen, so be
49:12
careful, don't go to uh, don't don't go to that stuff that's usually
49:15
looking at their dessert show or whatever. But but yeah, I mean again
49:22
with Georgia Texas, like why like why like why is that the number one?
49:28
Right? But you know I I also would say, like why is
49:30
oh you Auburn on there, you know, somewhere in the middle of the
49:34
pack. But this confirms that, like the people are wanting to see these
49:38
matchups. That's why we're here, is for these matchups because and God bless
49:44
every single one of them. But if you're watching in Florida and it's OU
49:50
versus TCU, like nobody cares. If it's ou versus Baylor, nobody cares
49:55
o versus nobody cares, you know, outside of you know, in kans
50:00
or Oklahoma at that point, or if your team's fighting against Oklahoma to be
50:04
you know, top in the conference. So now I mean it's it's you
50:07
got the Texas game. Oh you Alabama Ole miss LSU. Like there are
50:13
stories upon stories upon stories outside once again in to Auburn one and that I
50:16
don't really understand that still, but I'm pretty excited, uh to see these
50:21
things. But yeah, I mean people are going to want to see what,
50:25
oh you can, oh you prove themselves. And then I think that
50:29
a lot of people are also going to see is Texas actually any good?
50:32
Or was last year just just like the exception, because I mean an eight
50:38
and four Texas is really the norm and they haven't even been holding up that
50:44
for the past couple of years. So we're you know, I like to
50:46
see what does debor in Alabama look like? You know now that now that
50:52
Georgia really is sitting as the king of the Hill, do they does that
50:55
pressure to keep getting better? Does that actually push them? You know,
51:00
can Lane kiff and win one of these big games? Can Missouri, you
51:04
know, put together another magical season. I mean with that schedule, they
51:07
should be able to and so but I mean Notre Dame Florida State. You
51:10
know, there's two programs that you know could be going in different directions.
51:15
You know after this year was Florida State and just super super lucky and everything
51:19
came together last year. Or are they going to be good again? Have
51:22
they changed? Have they turned the turned the culture around? So it's college
51:25
football is is fun and even though the nil stuff and the transfer portal really
51:31
has triggered a lot of people, this is why we watch college football right
51:35
here. If you're you know, if I was still selling college football and
51:38
shout out to Amy Waters, my old boss, you know, she this
51:43
this makes her smile ear to ear because it's ABC ESPN uh for ou going
51:49
forward and there's not a fight between Box and ESPN. So I mean,
51:52
this is this is candy, you know, a kid in a candy store
51:54
for for college football fans. No, it is and so so yeah,
52:00
I'm pretty excited to see what we got here going, you know, with
52:04
the big games from of course, red rivers always huge. And it's funny
52:07
because even saying it, like looking at this watchability score, I think it's
52:10
the thing that hurts the other rivalries that everybody gets excited about is that,
52:17
you know, both teams aren't really rated high right now by Kelly Ford,
52:22
he doesn't have them rated high. So that's why you don't see Ohio State
52:24
versus Michigan on here, right, you don't see Alabama versus Auburn on here.
52:30
I mean they're gonna be watched heavily. They're gonna get and he says
52:31
in himself, this doesn't mean that they won't see good ratings. These games
52:37
will see good ratings. But the thing that gives these more watchability is more
52:40
so about how the team's rank coming up against each other at the time they
52:44
probably will play. Right, why time we play text is we both should
52:47
be undefeated. Knock on wood, barring injury and any tom foolery, we
52:53
should both be undefeated. And that's the thing that's gonna make that entire game
52:58
jump and be more exciting. Right hey, Jake, tell me about number
53:02
thirty five, Like, do you feel like that one. You know,
53:06
one of these things are not like the other or like old miss There's a
53:10
couple on there that I'm like n C State and Tennessee like really like I
53:15
because by the time they face each other, they should be a decent matchup.
53:22
But at the same time, you gotta go through forty He's going through
53:24
forty games, right, Like, yeah, if you're talking top twenty,
53:28
yeah, you're probably stopping at twenty, right, You're probably stopping at Clemson,
53:31
Florida State. You're not looking at any other game besides that. But
53:36
to fill up forty, you gotta start going to games where you have questions
53:38
about, wait, is this gonna be even a decent game? Like I'm
53:40
gonna be honest, I'm kind of curious about this Missouri, Texas A and
53:44
M game at number twenty three. That one right there, is that what
53:47
we're gonna tell us a lot about what the season had. A season's gonna
53:51
go yeah, yeah, because I mean again, is by time that we
53:55
play Missouri, we're gonna have a pretty good idea of what they are.
54:00
And I bet you very much Twitter Missouri. Twitter is going to be very
54:04
very quiet if they don't have a respectable record by that time, because if
54:08
they roll into A and M and they take it on the chin, because
54:12
that's down in College Station. Correct, Yes, they traveled down to College
54:16
Station, Yes, sir, so down there. I mean that I was
54:21
at the Torrents Marshall game and that was the only time, like you've been
54:24
in an airplane when you know, we travel a lot, so yesterday I
54:29
was on a or today I was on a smaller plane from Charlotte to TU
54:31
Tulsa, and you know, you get that like super shaking and you're like,
54:37
Nope, this is fine, everything's good. I've been here before.
54:38
Nothing is going to happen. That's what I felt like when you know,
54:42
in that A and m Ou game back in two thousand, like it was
54:45
so scary because that Dad Stadium shakes. I mean it moves around. It
54:50
looks like a tackle box, but it does move when they start doing their
54:53
stuff. Hmmm. Interesting and interesting. Well, there's a lot of goods,
55:04
a lot of good games, some of your games. I'm pretty excited
55:07
about that. I'm pretty uh, I'm pretty stoked about this coming season.
55:10
It's gonna be a fun one one that we should all cherish, regardless of
55:15
how well we do and know I think we expect us to do very well.
55:19
It's gonna be fun because it's gonna be our first time in the SEC.
55:21
We get to go to see all these big stadiums, we get to
55:23
actually playing some big games, and we can really set the tone if we
55:29
go out there and show up and show out like the expectation is, especially
55:34
if the defense carries us this year. There's a darn good chance that a
55:39
lot of people that was negative ninnies in this these chat and this a comment
55:43
section and negative comments gonna be looking back like dang. Jane Coople's right,
55:51
you're welcome. We're gonna say right now, but now strap it up with
55:54
a bow on it. I'm gonna go ahead and find food. You're boy
55:58
hungry and gotta get ready to go record uh for tomorrow or whatnot? Coop
56:01
final words which you got for people? Yeah, I mean, we talk
56:07
about us as fans and I've got you know, my request for Oklahoma fans
56:13
is travel, Right, you don't have to go to every away game,
56:15
but these are new experiences and it will be a big deal. So if
56:20
you're looking, I mean, whether it is LSU, you don't even have
56:23
to go to the game. We just want to show out and then when
56:25
folks come to the crib, like guys this. We've been showing the Texas
56:30
Texas Tech Jump Around game on Twitter all day and it like we need that
56:36
from the fans showing up and we don't have the sleepy morning games to worry
56:39
about or anything like that. Like we're gonna have the two thirty games.
56:43
You're gonna be able to get there and get yourself a little looped up.
56:45
But we want to see you as fans because I mean, I know that
56:51
you know we're gonna be at several of the games, Jay, and I
56:53
want I want to see you, know. So if you're one of the
56:57
guys that says, hey, guy up in front, sit down, like
57:00
I mean, be better, stand up, get loud. I'm bringing something.
57:02
I don't care. Bring a clapper, a cow bell, still,
57:06
somebody's noise maker, I don't care. You can just complain loudly about the
57:09
person in front of you, but stand up and let's let's do it.
57:12
Because this defense is going to be good, but this defense can be great,
57:16
and if we can make it a tough place to play, we're gonna
57:20
start seeing you know, Gaylor Family Memorial Stadium come up the list of places
57:24
people don't want to go see because of all those scary places to play,
57:28
we didn't see Norman and it's it's not it really. I mean, we're
57:31
not a scary place to play currently. So let's that's something that we we
57:36
need to do better as fans. You know that's I someonet only disagree because
57:43
we still got a pretty dark good record at the Crib now, but you're
57:45
right, we're not loud enough. We need to start busting ear drums.
57:52
Yeah, if you bust ear drums, I think we'll be fine. I
57:53
think I think that will change the game for us on the road. Is
57:59
if we're out there and people were like, I can't, I can't concentrate.
58:02
Yeah, we need, we need, we need to oppose the team.
58:05
We need Nico I Liava to be out there not be able to concentrate
58:08
on that on game four of the season, right, that's what we need.
58:13
If we get that, I think we can make it happen so sooner.
58:17
Fans, the expectation from you is show up, show out, be
58:21
loud. Yes, cause a problem for the opposing team trying to figure out
58:24
their comms. Y'all need to get to work on that, all right.
58:29
We out. Thank y'all for pulling up. Please hit that like buddy if
58:31
you need to, the chance to subscribe. Also rate review if you're listening.
58:37
Give us five stars. I think we deserve it. Give us five
58:40
anyway and gifted And with that, Coop and I are out. We would
58:45
chop it up with y'all. I don't know, a couple of days,
58:49
probably get a video the next day or two. I need to get y'all
58:51
some recruiting videos. I've been slacking on the other channel where we talk recruits.
58:53
Coop's gonna be making the magic happen there too, So we'll talk soon,
58:58
y'all. Hollis
