- 1:57Speaker 5: I'll speak for myself. I have to force myself to
- 2:00Speaker 5: love some of these other sports that are happening because
- 2:02Speaker 5: there is nothing like the feeling. of the first week
- 2:05Speaker 5: of college football. It's like you walk in and you
- 2:07Speaker 5: got smiles going on. JP, you see him, he's like
- 2:09Speaker 5: game week. You're dapping everybody up. Coop's talking about Oklahoma State.
- 2:13Speaker 5: They got a big one against Tulane this weekend. We're
- 2:15Speaker 5: talking TCU, North Carolina. Is Billy B back? We got
- 2:19Speaker 5: a fat one with Baylor. Auburn this week, one of
- 2:22Speaker 5: the premier games. Sneaky sickos out there. Cal UCLA, that's
- 2:26Speaker 5: going to be a phenomenal game.
- 2:27Speaker 2: I know who you like in that game already. I
- 2:29Speaker 2: don't know who I like. Can I be honest? Yeah,
- 2:31Speaker 2: I don't know fully yet who I like. You've been
- 2:34Speaker 2: singing about Cal Berkeley. For sure.
- 2:37Speaker 5: Love Tosh. Love Tosh Lapoi. But also Bob Chesney going
- 2:41Speaker 5: to UCLA with Nico Ayamaliva. Is that how you say
- 2:44Speaker 5: it again? Nico Ayamaliva.
- 2:46Speaker 2: What did I say?
- 2:48Speaker 3: Niko.
- 2:49Speaker 2: Niko. Doesn't matter. You got it.
- 2:51Speaker 4: I'm a believer.
- 2:52Speaker 2: You're a believer in the Lever? Maybe. Maybe.
- 2:55Speaker 5: I've just, it's like, you know, Cignetti flipped everything on
- 2:57Speaker 5: its head last year with going undefeated. I'm not saying
- 2:59Speaker 5: UCLA is going to do that. But Bob Chesney coming
- 3:01Speaker 5: from JMU, another iteration of the G5 moving up to
- 3:04Speaker 5: the P4.
- 3:05Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 3:05Speaker 5: I am just optimistic to watch this game.
- 3:07Speaker 2: God.
- 3:08Speaker 5: Big in-state battle going on.
- 3:09Speaker 4: It's exciting.
- 3:09Speaker 5: Who knows if any fans are going to show up
- 3:11Speaker 5: because it's California.
- 3:12Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 3:12Speaker 5: And you saw what happened at USC.
- 3:14Speaker 2: It was hot, Will.
- 3:15Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 3:16Speaker 2: You got to think about it. It was 100 degrees.
- 3:19Speaker 2: All right. Yeah, it was dry. And so what if
- 3:22Speaker 2: Alabama is going to have a heat index of 110
- 3:24Speaker 2: this weekend in Tuscaloosa? They might have a hard time
- 3:27Speaker 2: going to the game there too. That is bullshit, man.
- 3:30Speaker 2: That is as bad as it gets if you're a program.
- 3:34Speaker 2: That's as bad as it gets if you're Lincoln Riley
- 3:37Speaker 2: and you got Maiavo, who absolutely diced him up all
- 3:41Speaker 2: game long. You got three, I can only count in
- 3:44Speaker 2: my brain right now, three freshmen that are, in my opinion,
- 3:48Speaker 2: already first rep picks. That tight end and that wide receiver.
- 3:52Speaker 2: First game in college football, had over 100 yards receiving.
- 3:55Speaker 2: And that's what we get.
- 3:57Speaker 5: We do have a tier talk, again, for the fans
- 3:59Speaker 5: out there, if you want to be featured on the show.
- 4:01Speaker 5: You drop in a hashtag tier talk, we will find
- 4:03Speaker 5: it and we will try and feature you on the show.
- 4:05Speaker 5: But Steven, this is a, he's every week. Scoop of
- 4:08Speaker 5: Steven 22. Scoop of Steven's always got the goods. He
- 4:10Speaker 5: knows how we think. How about that piss poor showing
- 4:13Speaker 5: by the fans of USC hashtag tier talk?
- 4:15Speaker 2: It is, man.
- 4:16Speaker 5: It's like, bro, you have a squad. Look at all
- 4:18Speaker 5: these guys we have on the bus. They're just excited
- 4:20Speaker 5: about college football. You have a team that's a national team. championship,
- 4:25Speaker 5: potentially contender this year. Lincoln Riley getting paid boatloads of money,
- 4:28Speaker 5: all the money they have invested. The number one recruiting class, Mayava,
- 4:33Speaker 5: the defense, the receivers, like everything that you have coming
- 4:36Speaker 5: out of last year building to this year. And you
- 4:38Speaker 5: show up against San Jose State and it's what? A
- 4:41Speaker 5: thousand people? 11,000?
- 4:42Speaker 2: And we can't just get juiced up? Like that's not
- 4:45Speaker 2: even a Texas high school football stadium. That's how bad
- 4:49Speaker 2: it is.
- 4:49Speaker 5: 11,000?
- 4:50Speaker 2: They claim 51. They're lying.
- 4:54Speaker 3: There's more people coming to Idaho State and Susquehanna games.
- 4:56Speaker 5: There's more people going to like the bubble gum games
- 4:58Speaker 5: in high school. You know where it's like, all you
- 5:00Speaker 5: got to do is bring some bubble gum.
- 5:01Speaker 2: That is, that's tough. And you know what hurts the
- 5:03Speaker 2: most about this is when we were in high school,
- 5:06Speaker 2: like that's when it was Pete Carroll, USC. That's when
- 5:10Speaker 2: Texas was big. It was like- Well, that's when you
- 5:13Speaker 2: looked at USC. And being a kid that was living
- 5:15Speaker 2: out West, I was like, dude, if I get an
- 5:17Speaker 2: offer from the Trojans, how amazing would it be to
- 5:19Speaker 2: play in the Coliseum with this squad that has Heisman
- 5:23Speaker 2: Trophy winners. Not only Heisman Trophy winners, but in the
- 5:25Speaker 2: same year, runner-up Heisman Trophy winners. They're winning national championships.
- 5:29Speaker 2: And then Pete leaves. And all of a sudden, like
- 5:32Speaker 2: at this dude, football players were dating celebrities in college.
- 5:36Speaker 2: This is pre NIL, pre every day. Like that's the
- 5:39Speaker 2: kind of stardom that was taking place at USC. And
- 5:43Speaker 2: now we had 11,000 people in a stadium.
- 5:46Speaker 8: Is that the number one way to get stripped of
- 5:48Speaker 8: a blue blood title to your university?
- 5:52Speaker 5: Are they still a blue blood? I feel like you
- 5:55Speaker 5: can't even think of them in that top tier category.
- 5:58Speaker 5: of teams. I feel bad for like the players. Imagine
- 6:00Speaker 5: like being a stud on that team. Like you do
- 6:01Speaker 5: have a good team going into this year and be like, man,
- 6:04Speaker 5: people just don't love this football program. The way, look,
- 6:08Speaker 5: look at all these other teams out there that I
- 6:10Speaker 5: could have went, like think of offers and, uh, uh, contracts.
- 6:14Speaker 5: They turned down to play at USC and be like, man,
- 6:16Speaker 5: I could be playing over here, chasing the exact same
- 6:18Speaker 5: thing with the same type of roster. Do you think
- 6:22Speaker 5: they care though?
- 6:24Speaker 3: With the NIL world, they're getting paid millions of dollars.
- 6:27Speaker 2: I think any player who puts on a helmet and
- 6:29Speaker 2: shoulder pads and walks out to a stadium and sees
- 6:32Speaker 2: it at a third capacity, doesn't matter how much money
- 6:35Speaker 2: you're making, bro. You're just like, man, I wish. I
- 6:38Speaker 2: wish we would have people in there, but then also
- 6:40Speaker 2: as a player thinking to yourself, like it's truly on me.
- 6:43Speaker 2: If we are just good, if we're good, they will come.
- 6:46Speaker 2: If we build it, they will come.
- 6:47Speaker 5: But they have been solid.
- 6:49Speaker 3: They're a top 25 team.
- 6:50Speaker 2: They're a top 25 team, no doubt. I do.
- 6:53Speaker 4: What I want to know is like, think about all
- 6:55Speaker 4: the recruits Lincoln Riley's been talking to all summer about
- 6:58Speaker 4: how awesome USC is. You got to be, come be
- 7:01Speaker 4: a part of something great. And then they go turn
- 7:03Speaker 4: on the TV or they're there in person. Like if
- 7:05Speaker 4: you're Lincoln Riley, Do you call a recruit that's supposed
- 7:08Speaker 4: to come week one and be like, hey, man, our
- 7:10Speaker 4: recruiting coordinator's sick. Like, you definitely should not come this week.
- 7:13Speaker 2: I wonder if that is a bad look.
- 7:15Speaker 5: Just imagine walking out because they're doing the arms lock
- 7:18Speaker 5: as they're walking out of the locker room.
- 7:19Speaker 2: You look up. It's like, man, we play at USC.
- 7:22Speaker 2: What the fuck is this? No doubt, bro. And you
- 7:26Speaker 2: could tell the TV production when they ran out of
- 7:28Speaker 2: the tunnel, they're like, all right, stay as tight as
- 7:29Speaker 2: you possibly can. Because Lincoln Riley and the boys ran
- 7:32Speaker 2: by and they were on some assistant coach for a
- 7:34Speaker 2: while trying to pan past A sea of empty seats.
- 7:38Speaker 2: It was brutal to see. Team looked good though.
- 7:41Speaker 5: Team did look good.
- 7:42Speaker 2: Regardless of who was there to watch it. I mean,
- 7:44Speaker 2: and also it's out West. So like there's could be
- 7:47Speaker 2: a pandemic going. I don't know what's taking place. People
- 7:51Speaker 2: got to be safe out there in LA. So we
- 7:53Speaker 2: just got to make sure we got to respect them.
- 7:55Speaker 2: We have to respect them. All that being said, I
- 7:58Speaker 2: thought the USC looked really good. It is week one.
- 8:01Speaker 2: It is San Jose state, but what you were telling
- 8:04Speaker 2: me earlier, San Jose only scored, their points in the
- 8:06Speaker 2: fourth quarter.
- 8:06Speaker 5: That's when the two, the majority of their points. Cause
- 8:08Speaker 5: part of me is also like, you can't give up
- 8:09Speaker 5: 26 to San Jose state.
- 8:11Speaker 7: Right.
- 8:11Speaker 2: But then you go, yeah. You look at the box score,
- 8:12Speaker 2: you think one thing and then you watch the film. Yeah.
- 8:15Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 8:15Speaker 5: Cause that first half, like they looked, they looked nasty.
- 8:17Speaker 5: And again, it's San Jose state, but if you just
- 8:19Speaker 5: pretend like just take away San Jose, pretend that San
- 8:22Speaker 5: Jose state's pretty good. You're like, Oh, USC, this is
- 8:24Speaker 5: going to be a tough football team this year.
- 8:25Speaker 2: You want, I mean, I don't know if they even
- 8:27Speaker 2: have like a podcast or any like super fans out
- 8:30Speaker 2: there that do like, you know, Reddit threads. But they
- 8:33Speaker 2: got to be, if they do have at least one
- 8:34Speaker 2: of them out there, they got to be feeling pretty
- 8:35Speaker 2: good about going into the season. Yeah. Because they are
- 8:37Speaker 2: the sneaky team that's kind of just floated. Yeah. I
- 8:40Speaker 2: saw him tweet about it. He said, we're so back. Yeah.
- 8:43Speaker 2: I just told him, hey, tell the fans.
- 8:44Speaker 5: Or call and go to a game.
- 8:46Speaker 2: Yeah. At least announce you're going to be there or
- 8:49Speaker 2: something like that. Because it'd be so great. So great
- 8:51Speaker 2: to see some USC have a full stadium. But, and
- 8:56Speaker 2: then North Carolina. Dude, Billy Belichick, man. Hit him with
- 9:01Speaker 2: the weave too, walking out. You see that reporter?
- 9:03Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 9:03Speaker 2: The reporter came in, tried to get him. He hit
- 9:05Speaker 2: him with a sidestep.
- 9:06Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 9:06Speaker 2: And you could just tell, I mean, good on her
- 9:08Speaker 2: for keep going, for pushing through, taking the steps with
- 9:11Speaker 2: him and trying to put that microphone in his face.
- 9:14Speaker 2: But Billy B might be on heel mission right now.
- 9:16Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 9:16Speaker 4: Will had a sniffed out from the jump.
- 9:21Speaker 2: What happened?
- 9:22Speaker 5: It's just, you get there, it's the first game of
- 9:24Speaker 5: the year. It's like, ah, this could be a new
- 9:26Speaker 5: year for your boy, especially in the gambling space. And
- 9:29Speaker 5: I took TCU minus seven and a half. And I'm
- 9:31Speaker 5: just letting people know people have been talking about, you know,
- 9:34Speaker 5: I want to say you and Cody were selling me
- 9:35Speaker 5: on some of the stock of TCU coming into this
- 9:39Speaker 5: year with the kid from Harvard. And so I'm like, hey,
- 9:41Speaker 5: people have been talking about TCU could be a sneaky
- 9:43Speaker 5: big 12 contender this year. Bill Belichick, all the drama
- 9:46Speaker 5: that surrounded UNC, it seems like he's going to have
- 9:48Speaker 5: a similar year like he did last year. So I'm
- 9:50Speaker 5: riding TCU minus seven and a half. And wouldn't you
- 9:52Speaker 5: know it, they just shove it down my throat, Bill
- 9:57Speaker 5: Belichick football.
- 9:58Speaker 2: I will say this. I'll say this about TCU. The start.
- 10:02Speaker 2: I tweeted about it. That loss on the FanDuel Sportsbook
- 10:06Speaker 2: app is not on me.
- 10:07Speaker 3: All right.
- 10:08Speaker 2: That's on the selfish football that took place. There are
- 10:10Speaker 2: so many times at one point they were like in
- 10:12Speaker 2: the third quarter and it was nine penalties for over
- 10:16Speaker 2: a hundred yards versus North Carolina, North Carolina, who had
- 10:19Speaker 2: two penalties for like 30. It was so bad. The
- 10:22Speaker 2: quarterback for North Carolina gets the ball slips, falls, ends
- 10:26Speaker 2: up sliding on the ball. And some TCU D lineman
- 10:29Speaker 2: comes in and just hits the guy. I'm thinking to myself, Buddy,
- 10:32Speaker 2: we all know you want sacks. We know the game.
- 10:34Speaker 2: We've been around Clay Matthews long enough to know these
- 10:36Speaker 2: defensive linemen, they want their sacks. They want their stats.
- 10:39Speaker 2: Walk up to them and touch them. That's all you
- 10:41Speaker 2: got to do. And in a selfish ball that takes place,
- 10:43Speaker 2: that's their down. They end up getting a first run
- 10:45Speaker 2: down right there. And I think they actually missed a
- 10:47Speaker 2: field goal. But still, it's just bad. You can't have that.
- 10:50Speaker 4: This was Will's exact tweet. Year two won't be any
- 10:53Speaker 4: better for Bill Belichick. TCU will be sneaking the Big 12.
- 10:57Speaker 4: TCU minus seven and a half for the first win
- 10:58Speaker 4: of the season.
- 10:59Speaker 2: Dang.
- 11:01Speaker 4: It's next week, 0-1.
- 11:07Speaker 2: Slide down that parlay real quick. Yeah, it was one
- 11:10Speaker 2: for three. You moved the line to eight and a half. No,
- 11:13Speaker 2: it was eight and a half when I put it down.
- 11:14Speaker 5: People were hammering the TCU minus seven and a half.
- 11:17Speaker 7: Man.
- 11:18Speaker 4: I'll tell you what, though.
- 11:19Speaker 5: If you want any type of thought, if you're trying
- 11:21Speaker 5: to talk yourself into one this weekend, the way North Carolina.
- 11:25Speaker 2: Hang on. Hang on.
- 11:27Speaker 5: I'm probably not going to do this, but here's what
- 11:29Speaker 5: I'm trying to get at. The formula that North Carolina
- 11:33Speaker 5: went into on foreign soil and won, that would be
- 11:35Speaker 5: the formula Clemson would have to take on if they're
- 11:38Speaker 5: going to take down whatever, cover against LSU. Just because
- 11:43Speaker 5: the way North Carolina won is in Bill Belichick fashion.
- 11:46Speaker 5: They had two penalties on the entirety of the day.
- 11:49Speaker 5: They held TCU to under three yards per rush. Like,
- 11:52Speaker 5: you're going to have to stop the run. You're going
- 11:53Speaker 5: to have to play clean football. The fact that Bill
- 11:56Speaker 5: had that team out there, traveled out there, and they
- 11:59Speaker 5: only had two penalties in the first game. Yeah, they
- 12:01Speaker 5: played clean football. When was that little block in the
- 12:03Speaker 5: back when they popped one? I forget what the other
- 12:06Speaker 5: one was. I want to say it was delay a game.
- 12:08Speaker 5: But to have that clean of a game internationally too,
- 12:10Speaker 5: week one, and all this stuff with Bill Belichick, like
- 12:13Speaker 5: they won in culture fashion.
- 12:16Speaker 2: I can get behind the idea that if you're looking
- 12:19Speaker 2: for reasons to talk yourself into Clemson beating LSU in
- 12:22Speaker 2: Death Valley at night during week one with Lane Kiffin.
- 12:25Speaker 4: It's a reach.
- 12:25Speaker 2: It's a reach. I understand. I completely understand the logic
- 12:29Speaker 2: of Babo Sweeney. Culture guy. So what if he had
- 12:33Speaker 2: nine guys drafted last year in the first five rounds?
- 12:37Speaker 2: Sometimes drafted guys don't make your team better. Culture, culture, culture.
- 12:41Speaker 2: And you got guys, according to him, a bunch of nobodies.
- 12:43Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 12:43Speaker 2: And maybe a bunch of nobodies can stand up against
- 12:45Speaker 2: a bunch of some, some buddies and have it go
- 12:48Speaker 2: down on Saturday night in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, which was
- 12:50Speaker 2: where it will be. on Friday from 2 to 3
- 12:53Speaker 2: Eastern on ESPN. Game week. Game week for us as well. Bustin'
- 12:56Speaker 2: with Pate on campus. We'll be live. Bustin' and Pate.
- 12:59Speaker 5: Bustin' and Pate.
- 13:00Speaker 9: God bless, dude.
- 13:02Speaker 2: I got to figure out the title of our show
- 13:03Speaker 2: before we have it on Friday. They're calling for 89 Degrees.
- 13:09Speaker 2: soupy weather, and a little bit of rain that takes place. So, hey,
- 13:12Speaker 2: we'll fight in the shade. We'll fight in the shade.
- 13:14Speaker 2: We'll be out there. I don't know where the location
- 13:16Speaker 2: is yet, but we'll be out there for that first game.
- 13:18Speaker 2: We'll be in Death Valley. Nice little activation at Fred's
- 13:20Speaker 2: on Saturday afternoon. It's going to be a nice little time. Yeah,
- 13:22Speaker 2: for the bus and tailgate tour. Tailgate tour is ripping.
- 13:25Speaker 2: But I'll have my opinions on LSU. and Clemson as
- 13:29Speaker 2: we get into the locker room. Just to add. Go ahead.
- 13:32Speaker 5: All the transfers, all the distractions, everything, the stars that
- 13:35Speaker 5: are at LSU, just all of the shit that's been
- 13:37Speaker 5: talked about at LSU. There's a lot of reason for distraction.
- 13:40Speaker 5: They go in there and commit. How many did TCU have?
- 13:44Speaker 5: 11 penalties? 11, yeah. I'm telling you. I'm not saying
- 13:51Speaker 5: I'm buying that stock. I'm just saying if there's a
- 13:53Speaker 5: world where Clemson goes in there and does it, This
- 13:57Speaker 5: recipe is out there.
- 13:58Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 13:58Speaker 1: Lane Kiffin came out today saying that he's talking with
- 14:01Speaker 1: the NCAA and the SEC every day about these NFL
- 14:05Speaker 1: transfers coming in. It's like, there's not a lot of
- 14:07Speaker 1: focus on the game, but hey, over in Clemson, all
- 14:11Speaker 1: the focus is on this game.
- 14:12Speaker 5: You don't hear a lot coming.
- 14:13Speaker 4: I got to go talk to Lane ASAP. Would you
- 14:16Speaker 4: make sure he's taking it as serious as I am? Like, bro,
- 14:19Speaker 4: are you not locked in for this week? This is
- 14:21Speaker 4: the most important week of the season.
- 14:22Speaker 2: Have we not realized at this point that Lane Kiffin
- 14:25Speaker 2: comes off as one of the most distracted head coaches
- 14:27Speaker 2: in all of college football? Yet he always has. He's
- 14:29Speaker 2: the biggest villain. I love it. He always has great teams.
- 14:32Speaker 2: He always has a top five rushing offense. He always
- 14:34Speaker 2: has the most creative play calling. And now he's got
- 14:37Speaker 2: the best roster he's ever had.
- 14:39Speaker 4: But he also has not won anything.
- 14:41Speaker 2: I'm with you, dude.
- 14:42Speaker 4: So that's what I'm saying. Like, Lane, this is the year, bro.
- 14:44Speaker 2: Where's he been at? He's a USC for 14 months.
- 14:49Speaker 2: He wins a natty Alabama, goes to FAU, jumps over
- 14:53Speaker 2: to Ole Miss for a few years and turns that
- 14:55Speaker 2: program into an absolute contender where they're in the semifinals
- 14:57Speaker 2: yet without him, with all the distractions.
- 14:59Speaker 4: Nobody wants LSU to win more than me. And that's
- 15:03Speaker 4: just all I need, Lane Kiffin.
- 15:04Speaker 2: Wait, okay, but Bray, why do you want- This is
- 15:07Speaker 2: just for this week because it's Clemson. Oh, that's right.
- 15:10Speaker 2: I should have put that together.
- 15:11Speaker 3: That's on me.
- 15:11Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 15:12Speaker 2: That's on me. Coffee hasn't hit yet the way it
- 15:13Speaker 2: should have. But hey, we got the locker room this week.
- 15:16Speaker 2: All right, we got the locker room. We got week one.
- 15:18Speaker 2: We're talking games. We also have our NFL futures taking place.
- 15:21Speaker 2: Delaney's back. The boys are back. We'll get a round
- 15:24Speaker 2: of applause on that. So much to look forward to
- 15:27Speaker 2: on this show. So I feel like we should kind of,
- 15:30Speaker 2: back up a little bit on that, except for North
- 15:32Speaker 2: Dakota State.
- 15:32Speaker 5: We can't, but just to give full clarity to the audience. Again,
- 15:35Speaker 5: locker room for college football will be out every Wednesday evening.
- 15:39Speaker 5: The NFL locker room with Clayton Delaney will be out
- 15:41Speaker 5: every Thursday morning.

- 16:40Speaker 5: Fred's rips. The vibes will be immaculate.
- 16:44Speaker 2: I will say this. Stanford Davis Warren, Warren Davis, quarterback,
- 16:48Speaker 2: had leukemia, ends up walking on at Michigan. He was
- 16:51Speaker 2: a starting quarterback in 2024, throwing muffins all over the place,
- 16:54Speaker 2: threw for over 300 yards against Hawaii. Yeah.
- 16:58Speaker 5: Stanford got their one of two wins.
- 17:00Speaker 7: Right.
- 17:00Speaker 2: And you called it.
- 17:01Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 17:01Speaker 2: You called that their one of two the whole season.
- 17:04Speaker 2: I will say this, watching him go off the way
- 17:07Speaker 2: he did, regardless of who the team he was playing against,
- 17:10Speaker 2: I have so much optimism for Michigan. It just keeps
- 17:12Speaker 2: doing this. I'm in the perfect pocket right now to
- 17:16Speaker 2: be so let down this year. I am so ready
- 17:20Speaker 2: to be heartbroken.
- 17:21Speaker 5: Hey, right now, we're all undefeated.
- 17:22Speaker 2: We're all undefeated. Well- Not TCU.
- 17:25Speaker 4: True.
- 17:26Speaker 2: Not NC State. On this bus. Not Hawaii. On this bus.
- 17:29Speaker 2: Not UNLV.
- 17:30Speaker 5: Whether we live or die this season is irrelevant right now.
- 17:33Speaker 5: Right now, we just get to fly as high as possible.
- 17:35Speaker 2: We're all national champions right now. We're all national champions.
- 17:38Speaker 2: We're all national champions right now.
- 17:42Speaker 1: NFL.
- 17:42Speaker 5: Do we want to skim over Memphis UNLV? That was
- 17:46Speaker 5: a massive game. I am a fan of Coach Huff.
- 17:48Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 17:48Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 17:49Speaker 5: UNLV, a lot of people, including myself, had a... as
- 17:53Speaker 5: one of the top teams coming out for the G5
- 17:55Speaker 5: in the college football playoff. Seems like Memphis is going
- 17:58Speaker 5: to have a great, potentially great shot. I know that
- 18:00Speaker 5: was week zero. This is the time to overreact if
- 18:02Speaker 5: you're going to overreact. But it seems like he's got
- 18:04Speaker 5: those boys playing. North Dakota State, they got their first
- 18:08Speaker 5: win against Jacksonville State. So all the Dakotans tuned.
- 18:11Speaker 2: In right now.
- 18:11Speaker 5: Like, are the boys going to mention our first FBS win?
- 18:14Speaker 5: Just want to put that out there. Congratulations to North
- 18:16Speaker 5: Dakota State. That does conclude probably our week zero talk.
- 18:21Speaker 2: That does conclude our Zero Talk. And as far as
- 18:23Speaker 2: G5 talk goes, Will, you can have the floor for
- 18:25Speaker 2: the whole year on that. I'll just throw in some updates.
- 18:28Speaker 2: We can throw in some updates as a team. If
- 18:30Speaker 2: anybody has anything to say about G5, feel more than free.
- 18:33Speaker 2: I'm going to back up on that one. I'm going
- 18:36Speaker 2: to back up on G5.
- 18:37Speaker 5: We'll just give you the update every week.
- 18:39Speaker 2: Yeah, just give me the update and let me know
- 18:40Speaker 2: what's going on.
- 18:41Speaker 5: Because, yeah, we're across the board, one and done in
- 18:43Speaker 5: the college football playoff, but there is a team that
- 18:45Speaker 5: is going to make the college football playoff. And we'll
- 18:47Speaker 5: keep you tapped in on what the.
- 18:48Speaker 2: G5 is going to be like. I'll check in on that. Yeah,
- 18:50Speaker 2: I'll have my words to say as the playoff takes
- 18:52Speaker 2: place in a few months from now. And then I'll
- 18:54Speaker 2: be able to say my piece on G5. But until then, onward.
- 18:57Speaker 2: Aaron Donald, we knew it was coming. It finally is official.
- 19:00Speaker 2: Aaron Donald is back with the Los Angeles Rams.
- 19:02Speaker 6: One year.
- 19:03Speaker 2: $ 20 million. Potentially $ 30 million. Potentially $ 30 million. Yeah, he's
- 19:08Speaker 2: got a lot of stuff going on. Here's what I'll say.
- 19:10Speaker 2: I tweeted this out. The Rams clearly are your favorite
- 19:14Speaker 2: to win the Super Bowl this year. They should be
- 19:16Speaker 2: everyone's favorite to win the Super Bowl. Barring injury, in
- 19:20Speaker 2: my brain, there's no reason why they shouldn't win it.
- 19:22Speaker 2: This team is so talented. I can see this being
- 19:25Speaker 2: an undefeated season. An undefeated season for the Rams. That's
- 19:28Speaker 2: how talented this football team is. That's how good the
- 19:31Speaker 2: Los Angeles Rams are. God forbid you, I mean, Myles Garrett.
- 19:35Speaker 2: Myles Garrett got 22 and a half sacks last year,
- 19:37Speaker 2: 23 sacks last year on a team that was never up.
- 19:40Speaker 2: That never had the opportunity to be like, hey, this
- 19:42Speaker 2: is a clear pass to a situation other than like
- 19:44Speaker 2: your random thirds and sixes that would take place. And
- 19:46Speaker 2: he got 23 sacks. Aaron Donald is already a first
- 19:49Speaker 2: ballot Hall of Famer. if he's 50 of that player
- 19:51Speaker 2: that defensive line you can just if you're if you're
- 19:54Speaker 2: the dbs if you're if you're the back guys in
- 19:56Speaker 2: the back you can just sit there and just be
- 19:59Speaker 2: like yeah it'll be done in 1.5 don't worry about
- 20:01Speaker 2: that i.
- 20:01Speaker 5: Know because then you got young and fisk they're going
- 20:03Speaker 5: to be having one-on-ones maybe aaron donald's a one-on-one guy
- 20:06Speaker 5: who fucking knows but yeah To your point, they do
- 20:09Speaker 5: have a loaded roster.
- 20:11Speaker 2: They don't have to blitz. It feels illegal. It does.
- 20:13Speaker 2: It feels illegal. I mean, their backfield, their quarterback, it
- 20:17Speaker 2: was the MVP last year. You had Devontae Adams, Cooper Cup.
- 20:21Speaker 2: I mean, it's, sorry, Devontae Adams and Puka Nakua. Dajon Love.
- 20:25Speaker 4: Dajon Love.
- 20:26Speaker 2: Did he re-sign? He might've signed with the Rams. All right.
- 20:30Speaker 2: He's staying in California. Way to go to love right there.
- 20:35Speaker 2: Nasty D.
- 20:36Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 20:38Speaker 2: I mean, McDuffie's an absolute stud. Came over from Kansas City.
- 20:40Speaker 2: They have everything they need to have an undefeated season
- 20:44Speaker 2: in 2026. They do. They do.
- 20:47Speaker 5: They're in a tough division. It's what it is, man.
- 20:49Speaker 5: Got the Niners.
- 20:50Speaker 2: Got the Seahawks twice. Seattle's a fucking good team.

- 22:38Speaker 2: taken place. Sad news in the NFL world. The Titans
- 22:41Speaker 2: have officially waived Will Levis. If we could please have
- 22:44Speaker 2: a moment of silence for a friend of the show,
- 22:46Speaker 2: Will Levis. Will Levis. Jack, can you please take your
- 22:53Speaker 2: hat off while we do a minute? I won't, actually.
- 22:55Speaker 9: This is not sad news to me.
- 22:57Speaker 6: And I hope he has a career elsewhere, but it
- 22:59Speaker 6: was just, he shouldn't have been on the team this
- 23:02Speaker 6: past year anyways. We had four QBs going into Sunday.
- 23:05Speaker 6: Hinton Hooker beat him out again.
- 23:07Speaker 2: Go Vols.
- 23:09Speaker 6: And yeah, that's where we're at. I do hope he
- 23:12Speaker 6: gets a chance. I think he had an impossible task
- 23:15Speaker 6: and a system that was going to fail him. It's
- 23:19Speaker 6: not his fault, but it's also... It's not totally not
- 23:23Speaker 6: his fault. I just think he needs to go somewhere
- 23:25Speaker 6: else and figure it out. I mean, it became to
- 23:28Speaker 6: a thing.
- 23:28Speaker 2: Change of scenery.
- 23:29Speaker 9: Not even a trade.
- 23:29Speaker 2: Change of scenery is good for some people.
- 23:30Speaker 6: I think that's what needs to happen. It was a
- 23:33Speaker 6: bad situation for both parties. And I think it'll be
- 23:36Speaker 6: good for him. It'll be good for us. But I
- 23:38Speaker 6: hope the best for him.
- 23:39Speaker 3: Good luck, Will.
- 23:41Speaker 8: Clean take?
- 23:42Speaker 2: Well, the way it went. Clean take. Yeah, the way
- 23:43Speaker 2: it went was stuff. Of course, it's a clean take.
- 23:45Speaker 2: It's Kevin's Extra Foods clean take. Jack McPherson wishes Will
- 23:48Speaker 2: Levis the best. I guess. Yeah, sure.
- 23:51Speaker 4: Maybe a moment of silence Jack could get behind would
- 23:54Speaker 4: be a moment of silence for Mason Kinsey.
- 23:56Speaker 2: Yeah, that's... Oh no, they got him too?
- 23:58Speaker 4: I'll do that.
- 23:59Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll do a moment of silence for that for sure.
- 24:01Speaker 4: Coming from Barry College to the NFL.
- 24:04Speaker 5: Thank you, Mason.
- 24:05Speaker 2: Thank you, Mason. Thank you for your service, Mason. I
- 24:07Speaker 2: will say this about that young man. I will say though.
- 24:09Speaker 9: Okay, go ahead.
- 24:11Speaker 6: Just on the note of the Titans, an opposite of
- 24:13Speaker 6: a moment of silence, more of a congratulations, Xavier Restrepo.
- 24:18Speaker 6: practice squad dog miami makes 53 man roster that was big.
- 24:22Speaker 2: That's big that's big for the connection for cam warden
- 24:26Speaker 2: his wide receivers uh mason i mean this kid he's
- 24:30Speaker 2: uh every year i think i was with him for
- 24:32Speaker 2: like two years and he just was still stuck around
- 24:35Speaker 2: over and over and over again so shout out him
- 24:37Speaker 2: couldn't kill him couldn't kill him guy's a cockroach in
- 24:39Speaker 2: the best way cockroach ended up making it work. Jack,
- 24:42Speaker 2: how do we feel about the Tennessee Titans going into
- 24:43Speaker 2: this season right now?
- 24:44Speaker 5: Jack feels good. He's the face of the franchise.
- 24:46Speaker 2: Yeah, he's right. Jack is the face of the franchise.
- 24:49Speaker 6: If anything, it's the scariest time to have some public
- 24:52Speaker 6: notoriety with a team that could let you down again.
- 24:55Speaker 9: But I wrote down a couple key points.
- 24:58Speaker 2: Oh, you're ready.
- 24:59Speaker 5: You were following the commercial ahead with Jeff Simmons.
- 25:02Speaker 9: Now the preseason for the Titans is concluded. These are
- 25:05Speaker 9: my main things.
- 25:06Speaker 6: One, it's figure out if Cam Moore can make the
- 25:08Speaker 6: final step into being a franchise quarterback. They can contend
- 25:11Speaker 6: for us. Number two, get Cardinal Tate established as a
- 25:14Speaker 6: legitimate wide receiver. One, we've got to fix the pass protection.
- 25:18Speaker 6: We've got to get solid defense into at least the
- 25:20Speaker 6: top half of the league. And I think realistically winning
- 25:24Speaker 6: six to eight games, entering into the 2027 season when
- 25:27Speaker 6: we have our new stadium is a positive step forward.
- 25:30Speaker 9: Six to eight games is where you want to be.
- 25:33Speaker 6: That's double if not over what we had last year.
- 25:36Speaker 6: I've been at both home preseason games. You know, a
- 25:41Speaker 6: lot of twos and threes in the mix. You can't really,
- 25:43Speaker 6: it's preseason. I don't know what to think about it.
- 25:45Speaker 6: But week one against the Jets, you know, if you
- 25:48Speaker 6: lose to the Jets week one at home, It's a
- 25:51Speaker 6: sad fall to start. But we're not getting into that
- 25:54Speaker 6: moment yet. We're not putting ourselves in a losing mindset.
- 25:56Speaker 2: We're 0-0.
- 25:58Speaker 6: And I think it's all going to come down to
- 26:01Speaker 6: our five guys up front, if they can block Cam Ward.
- 26:04Speaker 6: Because Dayball, he can scheme and he can get Cam
- 26:07Speaker 6: Ward opportunities in our offense moving. But it's going to
- 26:11Speaker 6: take our guys, giving them a little bit of time.
- 26:14Speaker 4: So.
- 26:14Speaker 2: We'll see. Six to eight wins. Six to eight wins,
- 26:16Speaker 2: I think, is a positive. In 2026. In 2026? Right.
- 26:20Speaker 2: You said 27.
- 26:21Speaker 9: No, going into 27.
- 26:21Speaker 2: Got you. Got you. Okay.
- 26:23Speaker 5: Jack's looking at 2027. As long as you fix the
- 26:26Speaker 5: quarterback being a franchise QB, the weapons on the outside
- 26:30Speaker 5: with Cardinal Tate.
- 26:31Speaker 2: The protection. The protection.
- 26:32Speaker 5: Solid defense. If that can be around mid, middle of
- 26:36Speaker 5: the pack defense. You get those things right heading into
- 26:38Speaker 5: this year, you're looking at six to eight wins. Going
- 26:41Speaker 5: into 2027.
- 26:42Speaker 6: Dude, can I not just talk about my team.
- 26:44Speaker 2: Without you guys being dickheads? We are trying to recall, dude.
- 26:47Speaker 2: We have CTE brains, so we're just trying to make.
- 26:49Speaker 9: Sure- That's not a recall.
- 26:50Speaker 2: That's a good day. That's a good recall.
- 26:51Speaker 6: We're listing every possible thing that needs to be fixed,
- 26:53Speaker 6: and that's the whole checklist for every team.
- 26:57Speaker 2: But to be fair, if we check all those boxes,
- 26:59Speaker 2: six to eight wins.
- 27:00Speaker 6: I'm just- calling it like I see it as someone
- 27:03Speaker 6: who's been unrealistically optimistic and realistically pessimistic on both sides
- 27:09Speaker 6: meeting in the middle I think that's where you see
- 27:11Speaker 6: positive movement six day wins is not a bad year
- 27:16Speaker 6: but I'm you know that's why you set the expectation
- 27:18Speaker 6: low for yourself because you over exceed it You know,
- 27:21Speaker 6: who knows?
- 27:22Speaker 2: Can I give you a hypothetical question that's going to
- 27:24Speaker 2: put you in a bad position?
- 27:25Speaker 4: Sure.
- 27:25Speaker 2: Okay. If the Titans have a similar year to last year,
- 27:29Speaker 2: you don't see the growth from Cam Ward, and you
- 27:31Speaker 2: have a top five pick, given the quarterback draft class
- 27:35Speaker 2: that's coming out, is it any part of a conversation?
- 27:38Speaker 4: To tank?
- 27:40Speaker 2: No, no, no. I'm already letting you know.
- 27:42Speaker 5: It's Monday, man.
- 27:43Speaker 2: I'm just trying to lay off. First off, we don't
- 27:46Speaker 2: have tank season talk with the Titans until November. All right?
- 27:49Speaker 2: We got to hold up on that.
- 27:50Speaker 3: The tank?
- 27:51Speaker 2: The tank. I'm saying the season plays out. You have
- 27:55Speaker 2: a top five pick going into the draft in April.
- 27:57Speaker 2: All right? If you have a top five pick, quarterback
- 28:02Speaker 2: hasn't developed the way you've wanted it to. Talked about Dable,
- 28:05Speaker 2: Stahl's defense, him opportunities, Cardinal Tate, Wandel Robinson. All right?
- 28:10Speaker 2: Gunner Helm, you have weapons. Gunner, no. Does the franchise...
- 28:16Speaker 2: Go to, hey, there's a lot of great quarterbacks in
- 28:18Speaker 2: this class. Maybe we go one of those directions. Top
- 28:21Speaker 2: five pick, we know we're going to get one of them.
- 28:23Speaker 9: I truly can't answer that question.
- 28:25Speaker 5: I knew it would put you in a bad position.
- 28:26Speaker 5: That's why I can't. Because here's where I'm at with
- 28:28Speaker 5: the Titans. They're going to be better than they were
- 28:30Speaker 5: last year, but I still see them as far as
- 28:33Speaker 5: the four right now in the division.
- 28:35Speaker 6: And that's the third time you've said that to me today,
- 28:37Speaker 6: but it is good to see.
- 28:38Speaker 2: It on air. It's not even noon yet.
- 28:40Speaker 6: But no, yeah, it's fair. I mean, again, 6-8 wins,
- 28:44Speaker 6: I think, That's a positive step forward. Let's get ready
- 28:47Speaker 6: for the Jets. Solid revenge game. You get them, then
- 28:51Speaker 6: you know we're clearing the Eagles week two at home again.
- 28:53Speaker 6: Just ride momentum, and who knows? It might just be Rams, Titans.
- 28:57Speaker 4: Super Bowl.
- 29:00Speaker 2: Repeat.
- 29:00Speaker 5: Repeat from the 90s, man. I'm just trying.
- 29:02Speaker 9: To, yeah.
- 29:03Speaker 2: This is where you need to be. We're all undefeated
- 29:05Speaker 2: right now. Will said it earlier. We are all undefeated
- 29:08Speaker 2: right now.
- 29:08Speaker 6: My expectations are set very low because you guys know
- 29:11Speaker 6: how emotionally invested I can get.
- 29:13Speaker 2: Oh, really?
- 29:14Speaker 7: What?
- 29:14Speaker 5: You could be around five to six, four to six.
- 29:17Speaker 2: Zero to six. Literally, you could be at zero.
- 29:20Speaker 5: Listen, this is not a team that's going to win
- 29:23Speaker 5: zero this year.
- 29:26Speaker 2: That's an optimist. That's a Kevin's Natural Foods clean take.
- 29:28Speaker 5: Legitimately, they're going to be better than they were last year.
- 29:31Speaker 2: I agree.
- 29:31Speaker 5: They're going to be better. It's going to be tough
- 29:34Speaker 5: in that division.
- 29:34Speaker 2: I'm more optimistic on the Titans than even Willis. I
- 29:37Speaker 2: think you guys, best case scenario, you're sneaking into those playoffs.
- 29:42Speaker 2: sneaking into the playoffs. Best case scenario. Yeah. Everything's got
- 29:46Speaker 2: to be fine.
- 29:47Speaker 9: And Cam Ward we trust.
- 29:47Speaker 2: Well, he's got to be playing unbelievable. Cam Ward's got
- 29:49Speaker 2: to be who he thought he was going to be.
- 29:50Speaker 2: Did we talk about the bar fight with Big Jeff
- 29:53Speaker 2: at all? Did we cover that? Yeah, I did see
- 29:56Speaker 2: you pull that up. It's crazy they got that kind
- 29:57Speaker 2: of footage.
- 29:58Speaker 5: For people that were wondering why the comment of Jack
- 30:00Speaker 5: being the face of the franchise, Jackie Boy is very
- 30:03Speaker 5: much ingrained in all the release stuff for the Tennessee
- 30:06Speaker 5: Titans this year. Got a commercial with Big Jeff. he's
- 30:09Speaker 5: out doing promo videos at the games and preseason for
- 30:12Speaker 5: Titan social. You are like, you've got to be feeling
- 30:16Speaker 5: on cloud nine. I mean, knowing how much you've grown
- 30:20Speaker 5: up with this team and to be like, uh, you know,
- 30:23Speaker 5: I'll just say one of the personalities for the Titans.
- 30:26Speaker 6: It's cool for sure to get the opportunity to be
- 30:28Speaker 6: with a team that I've grown up with.
- 30:30Speaker 9: My family's gone to the games.
- 30:31Speaker 6: That's not new information for anyone who's listened to the show,
- 30:34Speaker 6: but Um, again, kind of going back into the same
- 30:37Speaker 6: conversation now that you kind of have a direct, whatever
- 30:41Speaker 6: you want to call it with me being a face
- 30:44Speaker 6: as like a very low brow, social media, Twitter guy,
- 30:48Speaker 6: if they do worse than last year, curse, they're going
- 30:52Speaker 6: to come for me.
- 30:53Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 30:54Speaker 9: And that's okay. Cause you've got to take a stand
- 30:56Speaker 9: at some point.
- 30:57Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 30:58Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, man. It is cool, though.
- 31:00Speaker 9: Shout out to the Titans. Shout out to Nate Bain.
- 31:02Speaker 2: You're kind of on the team. Yeah.
- 31:06Speaker 9: I'm like Dajon Love, just not getting paid. You're Dajon
- 31:07Speaker 9: Love without the fraud.
- 31:08Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. Alleged fraud, according to Mitch.
- 31:11Speaker 9: But it is cool.
- 31:12Speaker 6: So hopefully soon they're going to be asking not what
- 31:18Speaker 6: I can do, but how much can we pay you?
- 31:20Speaker 6: Because that conversation is coming soon.
- 31:23Speaker 4: Oh, is it?
- 31:23Speaker 2: Because Jack doesn't work for free all the time. Yeah,
- 31:26Speaker 2: you're like a drug dealer, dude. First one's free. Yeah, always.
- 31:29Speaker 2: First one's free after that. So we'll see.
- 31:31Speaker 9: But it has been cool.
- 31:33Speaker 6: It was a cool moment to be a part of
- 31:35Speaker 6: the unfolding of the Rivals jerseys and to be able
- 31:38Speaker 6: to be in the stadium, dap up people.
- 31:41Speaker 9: But it's just, you know, winning fixes everything. I would
- 31:46Speaker 9: not go to a.
- 31:47Speaker 6: Single home game this year if it meant that we
- 31:49Speaker 6: could win nine games. Which doesn't mean anything for anyone
- 31:54Speaker 6: but me.
- 31:54Speaker 2: Yeah. Hey, we'll be at a game.
- 31:58Speaker 5: How do we know they can win nine if you
- 32:01Speaker 5: go to the games?
- 32:03Speaker 9: Guess we'll never know. But yeah, I don't know if
- 32:05Speaker 9: you want to announce it. I don't know if that's
- 32:06Speaker 9: a public thing.
- 32:07Speaker 2: No, I don't think we can announce that yet. But
- 32:09Speaker 2: I know that I'll be with you. Heck yeah. I
- 32:11Speaker 2: got to be with the face of the franchise when
- 32:12Speaker 2: I do whatever I'm doing week two.
- 32:13Speaker 3: Come on.
- 32:15Speaker 2: Hey, Jack featuring Taylor. Jack McPherson featuring LeJuan, dude.
- 32:19Speaker 5: A couple guys.
- 32:19Speaker 2: That are a past face of the franchise, new face
- 32:23Speaker 2: of the franchise. It's got to be tough when your
- 32:25Speaker 2: face is the franchise with Huffett's alignment into social media. Yeah, seriously.
- 32:29Speaker 9: Most of the comments are like, who the fuck is
- 32:30Speaker 9: that guy?
- 32:31Speaker 2: That's great. That's exactly who you want to be. Yeah.
- 32:34Speaker 2: You're where Dejan Love always wanted to be.
- 32:36Speaker 9: Already got a leg up.
- 32:38Speaker 2: Already got a leg up.
- 32:39Speaker 9: Actually, financially, he's got the leg up, but... Yeah, but I.
- 32:42Speaker 2: Think when it's all said and done, you'll definitely have
- 32:43Speaker 2: a leg up on that as well, hopefully. What else
- 32:45Speaker 2: we got on the docket?
- 32:46Speaker 5: I want to apologize to people out there tuned in
- 32:52Speaker 5: that are Virginia fans, because we didn't say nothing about Virginia.
- 32:55Speaker 5: They looked like a little bit of a wagon against
- 32:58Speaker 5: NC State.
- 32:59Speaker 2: Absolutely.
- 32:59Speaker 5: Boper Beulah.
- 33:00Speaker 2: Ran all over them. Defensively playing with their hair on fire. Yep.
- 33:05Speaker 5: So apologies for not hitting Virginia.
- 33:08Speaker 2: That is on us. Virginia played explosive conservative football. They
- 33:13Speaker 2: ran the ball effectively all game long. Pribula, what, 9
- 33:16Speaker 2: for 11, 105, two touchdowns. Running all over the place.
- 33:19Speaker 2: Ran all over the place. NC State now, if you're
- 33:23Speaker 2: in that team meeting room, on the defensive side of
- 33:25Speaker 2: the ball, it's like, boys, we have to be way
- 33:28Speaker 2: better with our gap assignment. We cannot operate the way
- 33:30Speaker 2: they did. I mean, they were playing as if The
- 33:33Speaker 2: read option was just invented this year. Crashing down every
- 33:36Speaker 2: single time. It was insane to watch. They weren't playing.
- 33:39Speaker 2: The linebackers weren't playing like Graveyard would have. Come on. No. No.
- 33:43Speaker 5: Like Cody Graves out there.
- 33:46Speaker 1: But for NC State offensively, like CJ Bailey had all
- 33:50Speaker 1: this hype coming into the offseason, looked great at the
- 33:53Speaker 1: Manning Passing Academy. and just went out there through for
- 33:57Speaker 1: like 85 yards. Virginia held NC State to like 160
- 34:01Speaker 1: some total yards. Like just a bad showing for the
- 34:05Speaker 1: Wolfs back offense.
- 34:06Speaker 2: You know in.
- 34:07Speaker 5: The meeting rooms and everything else too, this is going
- 34:09Speaker 5: to be one of those conversations to where NC State's
- 34:11Speaker 5: been in the, they could be sneaky in the ACC.
- 34:14Speaker 5: Don't sleep on NC State where coach is just going
- 34:17Speaker 5: off about drinking that fucking Kool-Aid.
- 34:18Speaker 2: Going into the game. You know, if they are planning
- 34:20Speaker 2: to be sneaky in the ACC though, they got them
- 34:23Speaker 2: right where they want them right now. No one's expecting anything.
- 34:26Speaker 2: If the objective is to be sneaky, you've done it.
- 34:29Speaker 2: Time to sneak, boys. Let's pull up their schedule. I
- 34:31Speaker 2: just want to see just real quick. I don't want
- 34:32Speaker 2: to spend too much time on it.
- 34:34Speaker 1: TCU's offense doesn't look so bad after watching that NC
- 34:37Speaker 1: State offense.
- 34:38Speaker 2: Yeah, but also the penalties, dude. Was it Jaden Craig?
- 34:43Speaker 2: I'm high on him. I'm high on him still.
- 34:45Speaker 1: Yeah, he was missing his best receiver, Jordan Dwyer, and
- 34:47Speaker 1: then one receiver maybe had gotten punched.
- 34:50Speaker 3: And hurt a week before the game.
- 34:52Speaker 4: Allegedly.
- 34:52Speaker 2: Allegedly. Allegedly.
- 34:54Speaker 9: And uh yeah so a wise tcu only up from here.
- 34:58Speaker 2: A wise man on this bus once said week zero
- 35:01Speaker 2: foreign soil doesn't count so if you're tcu that game
- 35:06Speaker 2: does not count and unfortunately for north carolina that game
- 35:09Speaker 2: does not count foreign soil foreign soil yeah i'll give
- 35:13Speaker 2: you that i'll give you that i'll give you that
- 35:15Speaker 2: all right what else we got what else we got
- 35:16Speaker 2: in soil what else we got in this docket right
- 35:19Speaker 2: here Ryan Preece, one Saturday night's race.
- 35:22Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 35:23Speaker 2: Yeah, round of applause for that. Friend of the show,
- 35:25Speaker 2: racing with the boys, came in there, exciting last couple laps,
- 35:28Speaker 2: kind of bummed that things end on a caution, that
- 35:32Speaker 2: there's a big wreck goes down, the white flag comes out,
- 35:35Speaker 2: they go caution, the camera comes out, who was leading
- 35:38Speaker 2: when the caution light came out, that's how the lap ends,
- 35:40Speaker 2: that's how the whole race ends, and then it's over.
- 35:42Speaker 2: That being said, very happy for our friend of the show,
- 35:44Speaker 2: Ryan Preece. Yes.
- 35:46Speaker 3: The reason they, so that, it used to be a
- 35:47Speaker 3: rule where you race back to the finish line. but
- 35:50Speaker 3: then like say the crash happened in like turn one,
- 35:54Speaker 3: then you gotta like slam on the brakes and like
- 35:56Speaker 3: slow down when you're going 200 miles an hour. So like,
- 36:00Speaker 3: it makes sense, but I agree. Like, it is kind
- 36:01Speaker 3: of like, you wanna see the race to the checkered flag,
- 36:04Speaker 3: but Ryan Preece is in like a win and get
- 36:07Speaker 3: in situation because of the extra 20 points of winning
- 36:10Speaker 3: the race. And like, it was coming down to the
- 36:12Speaker 3: wire and you could, when he got out of the car,
- 36:14Speaker 3: you could see just how fired up he was.
- 36:16Speaker 2: Yeah, kept it alive.
- 36:17Speaker 3: It was just an electric way to, The.
- 36:20Speaker 5: Audios that were getting released too inside the car, because
- 36:24Speaker 5: our boy Ryan Blaney, he got spun out there at
- 36:26Speaker 5: the end and he's like, what the fuck is going on?
- 36:28Speaker 5: Because you hear the audio of the cat that was
- 36:30Speaker 5: going to the inside and then hit him in the back.
- 36:32Speaker 5: And the spotter's like, keep going, keep going, keep going.
- 36:34Speaker 5: Like the wreck just doesn't even happen.
- 36:35Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 36:37Speaker 5: That was cool to just be inside the car for
- 36:39Speaker 5: those audios.
- 36:39Speaker 2: That's the stuff that gets you juiced up about the game, man.
- 36:42Speaker 2: When you're not at the races.
- 36:44Speaker 5: And shout out here to Dick Richard. Rich A on
- 36:46Speaker 5: X giving a hashtag tier talk to also celebrate Ryan
- 36:50Speaker 5: Preece on his win at Daytona this past weekend. Big
- 36:52Speaker 5: win for the boy, Ryan Preece.
- 36:54Speaker 2: Big win.
- 36:55Speaker 3: It's going to be, the playoffs are going to be
- 36:56Speaker 3: electric with the new playoff format and like He got
- 36:59Speaker 3: the 16th and final spot, so they reset the points,
- 37:03Speaker 3: and Denny Hamlin won the regular season, so he has
- 37:05Speaker 3: a 100-point buffer going into the playoffs. Ryan Preece is
- 37:11Speaker 3: at the bottom, but I think he may be our dog.
- 37:14Speaker 3: Joey Logano is also in it.
- 37:15Speaker 2: Joey Logano. Yeah, Joey Logano, also from the show.
- 37:17Speaker 3: Blaney's also in it.
- 37:17Speaker 2: A lot of friends of the show in the playoffs.
- 37:19Speaker 2: Briscoe's in it.
- 37:20Speaker 3: Briscoe, Bubba, I believe, snuck in there.
- 37:23Speaker 2: I will just, we got to get back ahold of
- 37:25Speaker 2: that CEO and just let them know, like if we
- 37:28Speaker 2: have a wreck with a one lap to go, there
- 37:30Speaker 2: needs to be like a certain amount of time differentiation
- 37:33Speaker 2: that takes place between like one. And let's just say
- 37:36Speaker 2: it's a one second between the leader, like whoever the
- 37:37Speaker 2: leader is, when the caution comes out, if you're one
- 37:40Speaker 2: second behind that leader, you're in the final three laps
- 37:44Speaker 2: that take place. You clear everybody off. Hey, you weren't
- 37:45Speaker 2: within a second. Everybody get off. Now you have like
- 37:48Speaker 2: five cars and it's like three laps all you have
- 37:51Speaker 2: you get a pit stop clean wheels gas everything you
- 37:53Speaker 2: need for your fastest three for three laps and let
- 37:56Speaker 2: it go and just that's gas.
- 37:58Speaker 5: Good brainstorm that's a good brainstorm idea for him we
- 38:03Speaker 5: also need to because now our racing with the boys
- 38:05Speaker 5: that's that season has concluded it was a blast to
- 38:08Speaker 5: do joey logano was last week's he was all time
- 38:11Speaker 5: but all what i was going to say is we
- 38:12Speaker 5: need to get a graphic going for team bussing that's

- 38:23Speaker 3: are in the playoffs that could make a run. So
- 38:25Speaker 3: I feel like Team Bussin.
- 38:27Speaker 2: One of the worst things that could happen to any
- 38:29Speaker 2: of the friends of the show that win is that
- 38:32Speaker 2: when they do win, we will take some sort of
- 38:34Speaker 2: credit for having them on the bus.
- 38:37Speaker 5: Team Bussin is part of the story.
- 38:40Speaker 2: Part of the story. It's got to take place.

- 40:35Speaker 2: that's something I was about to bring up. Somebody that
- 40:38Speaker 2: works at Bustin' with the Boys said, and I quote,
- 40:43Speaker 2: Peter's gay.
- 40:46Speaker 5: We're not going to say Matt Malone's name.
- 40:47Speaker 2: We're not going to say his name. And if you're
- 40:50Speaker 2: mad at me for saying those words, that's a direct quote.
- 40:53Speaker 2: I'm just explaining to you guys what happened. Okay?
- 40:56Speaker 5: Why is he such a hater?
- 40:58Speaker 4: I think that's the question we ask everybody that doesn't
- 41:01Speaker 4: like dogs.
- 41:02Speaker 5: Because I was like looking at him like, where was
- 41:03Speaker 5: your energy when they were both in the shop last week?
- 41:06Speaker 4: Had your op.
- 41:07Speaker 2: He was saying like- I saw him pet the dog.
- 41:09Speaker 2: He petted him. With a smile on his face. I
- 41:12Speaker 2: saw him pet the dog.
- 41:13Speaker 3: Matt was saying that, or a person that shall not
- 41:15Speaker 3: be named, was saying that he doesn't like how Kirk
- 41:19Speaker 3: and Peter play fetch in the hotel.
- 41:22Speaker 2: That's his biggest issue?
- 41:23Speaker 3: That's what he said.
- 41:24Speaker 4: What if I'm trying to sleep downstairs and somebody's throwing
- 41:26Speaker 4: a tennis ball?
- 41:26Speaker 2: It's like, bro.
- 41:29Speaker 3: That is man's best friend one and two possibly the
- 41:33Speaker 3: most handsome dog i have ever seen in.
- 41:34Speaker 5: My life it is a handsome boy man.
- 41:37Speaker 3: And like he just is the happiest dog ever just
- 41:40Speaker 3: wants to like loves attention.
- 41:41Speaker 5: We got julian here on uh on youtube saying every
- 41:44Speaker 5: time peter was on camera i uh i acted like
- 41:46Speaker 5: a dog when i see a squirrel dot dot dot
- 41:49Speaker 5: dot dot quotes peter.
- 41:51Speaker 2: Peter probably a little more inflection in that voice when
- 41:54Speaker 2: they were writing it down peter yeah peter Oh yeah,
- 41:58Speaker 2: you're probably right. But yeah, the idea of not liking
- 42:03Speaker 2: Peter or thinking it's a gimmick or something like that.
- 42:06Speaker 2: It's like, dude, he was obsessed with the dog the
- 42:08Speaker 2: whole time. He asked if he could bring the dog.
- 42:11Speaker 2: We said, yeah, you can bring it. And the dog
- 42:12Speaker 2: was a massive part.
- 42:14Speaker 3: Of the day.
- 42:14Speaker 4: Luckily, in case there's any confusion on why people may
- 42:17Speaker 4: not like Peter, Will did break it down in detail.
- 42:19Speaker 2: Will did break it down kind of like right in
- 42:21Speaker 2: the beginning of the podcast.
- 42:22Speaker 5: I went in the egg gap with the... The Peterson
- 42:25Speaker 5: with the dog star.
- 42:26Speaker 2: The question you asked was perfect because it really was
- 42:30Speaker 2: a big thing that was like.
- 42:31Speaker 5: I was nervous going into those waters.
- 42:33Speaker 2: Yeah, but it was also like that dog did come
- 42:35Speaker 2: up pretty fast.
- 42:36Speaker 4: You didn't hesitate at all.
- 42:37Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. That dog kind of came in and we
- 42:39Speaker 2: were all kind of mourning Ben.
- 42:41Speaker 5: Yeah, like I sent him a very nice text.
- 42:43Speaker 2: Same, same.
- 42:44Speaker 5: And then on Sunday when Peter was just up and about.
- 42:47Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
- 42:48Speaker 2: He'd been in the game too. He'd been in football
- 42:49Speaker 2: for too long, moving up five. It's just too much
- 42:52Speaker 2: for him. But then you find out he has a
- 42:54Speaker 2: bunch of them. No question. And he's, you know, it's
- 42:56Speaker 2: an emotional experience for him. Let me bring the dog.
- 42:58Speaker 2: I get how the outside lens views it. Personally, I mean,
- 43:00Speaker 2: we all know at this point, Kirk Herbstreit and I,
- 43:02Speaker 2: we've had some back and forth. We've had some rough
- 43:04Speaker 2: ends of our relationship.
- 43:05Speaker 5: That was amazing to call back to.
- 43:07Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. And I 100% believe Kirk. And that like,
- 43:12Speaker 2: it was a tough moment for him. He wanted to
- 43:14Speaker 2: bring his dog, so he brought it. But for Matt, sorry.
- 43:17Speaker 2: For the person that bussing that has that type of
- 43:19Speaker 2: hate for that dog, makes no sense.
- 43:21Speaker 5: I was just confused by the energy he was having
- 43:23Speaker 5: this morning about it. Like when he was like, I'm just, bro,
- 43:26Speaker 5: they were both here last week and you didn't act any,
- 43:29Speaker 5: you didn't come close to acting like this.
- 43:31Speaker 3: You know how Matt is. You know how he is.
- 43:32Speaker 2: Matt's been in a blender today. I had to- I
- 43:36Speaker 2: had to get on Matt a little bit.
- 43:37Speaker 6: I think he's also falling for the woke mob on Twitter,
- 43:40Speaker 6: like behind the veil of, of burner accounts that constantly
- 43:44Speaker 6: troll Kirk Herbstree for bringing his dog places. It's people
- 43:47Speaker 6: who just don't want to be happy and they don't
- 43:49Speaker 6: want to see others happy more importantly.
- 43:51Speaker 9: And I think Matt's falling in line with that, but
- 43:53Speaker 9: I don't think he necessarily believes it.
- 43:55Speaker 2: It's growing pains.
- 43:56Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 43:57Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 43:57Speaker 6: You know, he sees a man happy. He sees a
- 43:59Speaker 6: man with a loving family and pets and he yearns
- 44:01Speaker 6: for that.
- 44:02Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 44:02Speaker 2: He, yeah. Kirk has what he wants. A dog that
- 44:06Speaker 2: loves him unconditionally.
- 44:08Speaker 8: It's cool to make fun of this guy's dog.
- 44:10Speaker 2: Let me hop on that.
- 44:11Speaker 5: It seems like it's cool. Let me join the crowd.
- 44:13Speaker 3: He has his own dog and hates that thing.
- 44:16Speaker 2: Matt is the guy that in middle school had all
- 44:20Speaker 2: the Nickelback CDs and then when the Nickelback thing started,
- 44:23Speaker 2: he was like, everyone's right. I'm off Nickelback now. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 44:26Speaker 5: Guy gets influenced pretty easily.
- 44:27Speaker 2: Yes.
- 44:28Speaker 5: Still a little young-minded. Absolutely. The conversation was a great
- 44:32Speaker 5: one though. Sherm, if you can bring back up so
- 44:34Speaker 5: we can shout out the the commenter on YouTube. This
- 44:37Speaker 5: is from Sumner Darlington, 3321 on YouTube. Throughout all the
- 44:41Speaker 5: insanity and madness of college football, Herbie remains the one
- 44:44Speaker 5: constant that makes me feel like a kid again. He's
- 44:46Speaker 5: a living legend and such a bright spot in college football.
- 44:49Speaker 2: Good sowed. Good sowed.
- 44:51Speaker 5: And old Jeff Chimeson, very well said.
- 44:52Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 44:54Speaker 5: You love to see the camaraderie building in the comment section.
- 44:56Speaker 5: People all about it. The handstand segment was killing Weebo42.
- 45:00Speaker 5: I mean, that is... Dude, it's, yeah.
- 45:04Speaker 4: Jason Kelsey alluded to a potential shot at a boy.
- 45:08Speaker 4: He tagged Kylie, quote tweeted the tweet, and all he
- 45:11Speaker 4: did was just tag Kylie.
- 45:13Speaker 2: I love that.
- 45:14Speaker 4: So don't be surprised if we get a gender reveal
- 45:15Speaker 4: in a few months.
- 45:17Speaker 2: Right, and it's a boy.
- 45:17Speaker 5: It's blue.
- 45:18Speaker 3: Something to think about for those that work at buses.
- 45:21Speaker 2: Dude, I said it on the bus. I did that.
- 45:23Speaker 2: Taylor and I did that with our second, and it's Willow.
- 45:26Speaker 2: You were vocal about it too when it was happening.
- 45:28Speaker 2: So I love Willow. I love my daughter Willow, but
- 45:31Speaker 2: is that a boy? Cause I literally, I remember I legit,
- 45:35Speaker 2: We're like laughing about it. And I'm like, this is
- 45:38Speaker 2: what we got to do. This is gravity. The boys
- 45:40Speaker 2: aren't as fast swimmers. We got to go. We got
- 45:42Speaker 2: to go. Yes, sir.
- 45:44Speaker 8: Just for purposes of anybody wondering and wants to maybe
- 45:48Speaker 8: try this at home. Is it like more of a
- 45:50Speaker 8: headstand or was it a true handstand?
- 45:52Speaker 2: I think it's like you're on your head and your hands.
- 45:54Speaker 2: You just got to get in vertical. Yeah, get in vertical.
- 45:57Speaker 2: Let gravity do its thing. And how long? just for
- 46:00Speaker 2: somebody that was wondering. Once you start to feel their
- 46:02Speaker 2: legs kind of giving out, because all the blood's rushing
- 46:04Speaker 2: to their head, that's when you kind of see if
- 46:06Speaker 2: that guy hurts.
- 46:07Speaker 5: You're giving your male sperm a shot to get there,
- 46:09Speaker 5: because they're the faster swimmers.
- 46:12Speaker 2: Honestly, this show is a big place for people to
- 46:14Speaker 2: come to learn how to have boys. Cobb gave us one,
- 46:16Speaker 2: Kirk has now given us another. We've got tips and tricks,
- 46:19Speaker 2: we just are doing it wrong. We're looking at the
- 46:22Speaker 2: directions and we just still can't put it together. It
- 46:24Speaker 2: also sounds like, because you experimented with it, it's not
- 46:27Speaker 2: a guarantee. We're looking at this is still like a
- 46:28Speaker 2: minus 160 odds if this is on fandom.
- 46:31Speaker 5: It could still get beat.
- 46:33Speaker 4: It's good that Kirk came on though because now we
- 46:35Speaker 4: have covered both demographics. Black people can probably relate more
- 46:39Speaker 4: to Randall Cobb's method than white people. White people can
- 46:43Speaker 4: relate to Kirk's.
- 46:44Speaker 2: Right.
- 46:45Speaker 4: Just because we're not as- I get it.
- 46:46Speaker 2: I can't take directions. Right. I don't have that capability.
- 46:49Speaker 2: You know what I mean? We're not at that level.
- 46:52Speaker 2: I'm not at that level. But when it's like, hey,
- 46:53Speaker 2: just have her stand on her head and say, I
- 46:55Speaker 2: can do that.
- 46:55Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 46:56Speaker 2: I know how to do that.
- 46:57Speaker 5: Like, you don't got six in you to go two right,
- 46:59Speaker 5: two left, two middle.
- 47:00Speaker 2: Exactly.
- 47:01Speaker 5: Like, here you go, you can't stand.
- 47:02Speaker 2: Like, two right, two left. Like, I'm done after the
- 47:04Speaker 2: first right. Yeah, yeah. And it's over for us. As
- 47:08Speaker 2: we're talking through that, I'm like, yeah, ESPN really did
- 47:09Speaker 2: give us a show. Isn't that crazy? We had a
- 47:13Speaker 2: meeting last week and they're like, you guys feel good
- 47:15Speaker 2: about it? We're like, yeah. Like, what are you doing?
- 47:17Speaker 2: We'll get it done. We're going to get it done
- 47:19Speaker 2: on Friday. And it sounds like from Bama Mons, we
- 47:21Speaker 2: need to do more.
- 47:21Speaker 5: Y'all calling the SEC championship game last year was awesome.
- 47:24Speaker 5: I'd love to see more of that. Trust me, us too.
- 47:26Speaker 2: Yeah, I had so much fun calling that game. That
- 47:29Speaker 2: was a blast to do.
- 47:30Speaker 4: Got to shout out Scotty Scheffler too. He just passed
- 47:33Speaker 4: Tiger Woods to become the highest paid golfer in golf history.
- 47:36Speaker 2: Let's go, Scotty Scheffler. Shout out the bag. Shout out
- 47:38Speaker 2: the bag.
- 47:39Speaker 4: $ 130 million for Scotty. Tiger's at $ 120 million. million and
- 47:44Speaker 4: the last two years they pulled up some stats uh
- 47:47Speaker 4: when tiger was age 28 to 30 he had 61
- 47:50Speaker 4: starts 18 wins four majors in scotty in the same
- 47:53Speaker 4: time frame 62 starts 18 wins three majors one players
- 47:58Speaker 4: championship so they're saying like come and with the depth
- 48:02Speaker 4: of the field now in golf they're like is it
- 48:04Speaker 4: more impressive what scotty was able to do these last couple.
- 48:07Speaker 5: Years so it sounds like scotty's on the trend of
- 48:09Speaker 5: on the trend Becoming in the go conversation.
- 48:12Speaker 3: Definitely like the player of this era.

- 51:11Speaker 2: All right.
- 51:11Speaker 10: What was your, I mean, because like we were asking
- 51:13Speaker 10: Pate yesterday. What do you think? And I want to
- 51:16Speaker 10: hear and see if you have the same answer. Like,
- 51:17Speaker 10: your breakthrough moment where you were like, dude, this is,
- 51:21Speaker 10: was it like the barstool? Was it like, was there
- 51:24Speaker 10: an episode that you were like, this is going to
- 51:26Speaker 10: the moon or like a moment in time where you
- 51:28Speaker 10: were like, we all sat down, talked about it and
- 51:31Speaker 10: was like, this is awesome. Like this is, this is,
- 51:34Speaker 10: this is going to be a moneymaker.
- 51:35Speaker 2: I don't think it was ever like, this is, I
- 51:37Speaker 2: never like, there was never like an aha moment for
- 51:39Speaker 2: me where I was like, this is going to be
- 51:41Speaker 2: a very like lucrative job or a second career to
- 51:44Speaker 2: be able to have. But there were moments like an episode,
- 51:47Speaker 2: like Mike Vrabel saying he cut his dick off.
- 51:50Speaker 10: Like when he said, like that just went crazy viral.
- 51:53Speaker 2: Crazy viral, but it's like, even when we were filming
- 51:55Speaker 2: those things, like we, I didn't have the, the, the
- 51:58Speaker 2: internet brain to be like, this is going to do
- 52:00Speaker 2: really well. It was like, that's fucking awesome. My head
- 52:02Speaker 2: coach just said that.
- 52:03Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 52:03Speaker 2: Like that. My head coach just said that. Cause in
- 52:06Speaker 2: my brain, when the Brable said that stuff, I'm going
- 52:08Speaker 2: through my own insecurities of like, Will and I are
- 52:11Speaker 2: doing something that like, we might be the first, maybe
- 52:14Speaker 2: like for sure. Mac, if he like retired to do it,
- 52:17Speaker 2: but like, we're like still actively playing in the NFL.
- 52:19Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 52:19Speaker 2: So by Mike coming on, it was just like, oh,
- 52:21Speaker 2: I'm getting a stamp of approval. It's okay for me
- 52:23Speaker 2: to do the show.
- 52:24Speaker 10: How long did you ask Mike before he came on?
- 52:26Speaker 2: Oh, it was really, it was. Okay. So yeah. Cause
- 52:29Speaker 2: we didn't. He was on the first 10, right? He
- 52:30Speaker 2: was on the first 10. Our first episode we did
- 52:33Speaker 2: was with Delaney Walker. Yep. Delaney tells a story about
- 52:36Speaker 2: how he got too much air in his IV before
- 52:37Speaker 2: a preseason or one of the games and almost died.
- 52:41Speaker 2: And that was the first episode that went out.
- 52:42Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 52:42Speaker 2: And I go into the facility. I've told the story
- 52:44Speaker 2: so many times, but I go into the facility and
- 52:46Speaker 2: like the trainers are looking at me like I'm an asshole.
- 52:48Speaker 2: I'm like, what the fuck's happening here? I go in
- 52:50Speaker 2: the team meeting room. And this is when Will is
- 52:51Speaker 2: not on the team. This is 2019. And we're in OTAs.
- 52:54Speaker 2: And it's just, we start the episode off of like
- 52:57Speaker 2: the giant big screen in the team meeting room is
- 52:59Speaker 2: just the bus. And Danny Walker telling that story. And
- 53:03Speaker 2: he plays it in full. And he's like, just a reminder, fellas,
- 53:06Speaker 2: anything you say in the media will be spun. And
- 53:08Speaker 2: I'm sitting there like, holy fuck, dude. And this is
- 53:11Speaker 2: before Mike. And so Mike and I, Coach Vrabel and
- 53:15Speaker 2: I have a talk. And I'm like, you should come on.
- 53:17Speaker 2: And he's like, oh, I'll go on your little podcast.
- 53:19Speaker 2: I was like, oh, that'd be awesome. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 53:21Speaker 5: I'll go on your little podcast.
- 53:23Speaker 2: When he said he'd cut his dick off and that
- 53:24Speaker 2: went crazy, it was like, kind of became a bit
- 53:27Speaker 2: for the whole year of 2019 because we went to
- 53:28Speaker 2: the AFC Championship.
- 53:29Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 53:30Speaker 2: Ramsey was another one. But the thing that was like,
- 53:32Speaker 2: oh shit, we might be doing something cool was when
- 53:34Speaker 2: Barstool called.
- 53:34Speaker 5: Oh, when Barstool reached out as early as they did
- 53:37Speaker 5: and talked about wanting to do a partnership.
- 53:39Speaker 10: How many episodes in was that?
- 53:40Speaker 2: Had to be like four or five. It was- Already?
- 53:42Speaker 2: That's it. That's wild.
- 53:43Speaker 5: It was in- late July and August when they had
- 53:48Speaker 5: reached out because they flew down. They had a conversation.
- 53:51Speaker 5: Like I got on the phone with Erica Nardini and
- 53:53Speaker 5: Gaz and they just talked about, we know you guys
- 53:58Speaker 5: have something kind of already in place. We know you
- 54:00Speaker 5: guys want to keep your IP. We know all that stuff.
- 54:02Speaker 5: We just want to put gasoline on your fire. I
- 54:04Speaker 5: think you guys are great.
- 54:05Speaker 2: Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And then they.
- 54:07Speaker 5: Kind of just talk shop as far as we'd be
- 54:09Speaker 5: interested in doing something with you guys. And then we
- 54:12Speaker 5: followed up with an email on like, Hey, let's re
- 54:15Speaker 5: let's reconnect somehow. they drop dates, we will fly to you.
- 54:18Speaker 5: And then we got to kind of select a couple
- 54:20Speaker 5: of dates when Taylor was on an off day during
- 54:22Speaker 5: Titans training camp, because I was still a free agent
- 54:24Speaker 5: at the time.
- 54:26Speaker 2: They picked an off day. They responded within five minutes
- 54:28Speaker 2: and they just flew down to us right away.
- 54:29Speaker 10: Did you know any of the Barstool guys or were
- 54:31Speaker 10: they just like.
- 54:32Speaker 2: Not really. Like I knew of Dave Portnoy.
- 54:34Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 54:34Speaker 5: And because when we first got on the phone with
- 54:36Speaker 5: Erica Nardini, I thought Erica Nardini was Eric Nardini. And
- 54:41Speaker 5: then we had a guy on the bus at the
- 54:43Speaker 5: time named Matt Neely, RIP to Matt Neely. Matt was like, bro,
- 54:49Speaker 5: do you know how big this is? And I was like,
- 54:51Speaker 5: I know Barstool's a thing.
- 54:53Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 54:53Speaker 5: But he's like, bro, you were just on the phone
- 54:54Speaker 5: with the CEO of Barstool. Then he was telling me
- 54:57Speaker 5: about Gaz. And again, because I knew about Dave, but
- 55:00Speaker 5: not like the world of, not at all the world
- 55:02Speaker 5: of Barstow. I just knew it was like a big thing.
- 55:05Speaker 5: I was still stuck in the mindset that they were like,
- 55:06Speaker 5: keep calm, chive on. Like those apps that happened, that
- 55:10Speaker 5: they were.
- 55:10Speaker 2: Just in the smoke show of the day on the internet.
- 55:12Speaker 2: You'd be in like college looking that up.
- 55:14Speaker 10: I'm trying to think about it from like truly a
- 55:17Speaker 10: former player's perspective, because when we're in it, We don't
- 55:21Speaker 10: ever think like we're like, at least for me, like
- 55:23Speaker 10: I didn't play a ton was a backup, but like,
- 55:26Speaker 10: I was so focused on just football for so long
- 55:29Speaker 10: that you think it's going to last forever. And you
- 55:31Speaker 10: don't know. So I think it's just really interesting that
- 55:34Speaker 10: you guys had like the foresight to be able to
- 55:36Speaker 10: be like, hey, like this could be something cool. Like,
- 55:39Speaker 10: let's just sit down and talk. Yeah, you're giving too
- 55:41Speaker 10: much credit to one of us.
- 55:42Speaker 2: You're giving too much credit to one of us because
- 55:44Speaker 2: I was like you. Yeah. Where like, I think in 2020,
- 55:47Speaker 2: we even did a Zoom call and I was like,
- 55:49Speaker 2: there is no plan B for me. I'm doing... As
- 55:51Speaker 2: soon as I got a scholarship offer from Utah State,
- 55:53Speaker 2: it was like, oh, I'm going to the NFL. That's
- 55:55Speaker 2: what's happening. And then hopefully I just die on the
- 55:58Speaker 2: football field. It's the only thing you know. Every Saturday
- 56:02Speaker 2: and Sunday, I would be in tears looking myself in
- 56:04Speaker 2: the mirror being like, today's a good day to go.
- 56:05Speaker 2: Today's a good day to end. Put the women and
- 56:08Speaker 2: children to bed. If it wasn't for Will, I don't
- 56:10Speaker 2: even know. He was the one that was like, hey,
- 56:12Speaker 2: we bonded over podcasts, especially the biohacking podcast. We would
- 56:16Speaker 2: talk about it in the morning. And so when he
- 56:18Speaker 2: comes to me, And he's like, I want to start one.
- 56:20Speaker 2: I just thought like, oh, this will be a fun
- 56:22Speaker 2: little hobby. This will be a fun little thing. Like
- 56:26Speaker 2: I've always enjoyed being on a microphone. I'll go out
- 56:28Speaker 2: and do that. And, but dude, the insecurity of when
- 56:31Speaker 2: you're so zoomed in to football and like, anything outside
- 56:36Speaker 2: of what happened in the building. Like you get a
- 56:37Speaker 2: light put on you.
- 56:38Speaker 10: And I like, that's another thing. The coaches make you
- 56:41Speaker 10: feel bad. Like, what are you doing? You're distracting. You're
- 56:44Speaker 10: doing all this.
- 56:45Speaker 2: In 2019, I was suspended for the first four games.
- 56:48Speaker 2: During the first year. Yeah, that's some of the podcast.
- 56:50Speaker 2: So I'm sitting there like. And I was like, you
- 56:52Speaker 2: should do the, we were like, you should do the
- 56:53Speaker 2: announcement on the bus. Yeah. And I'm like crying on
- 56:56Speaker 2: the bus. Like cried on the bus. We're a newsbreaker. Yeah, yeah.
- 57:00Speaker 3: We broke it.
- 57:01Speaker 2: And I remember sitting, I remember sitting in my truck,
- 57:04Speaker 2: driving home to our house and, uh, we let it
- 57:07Speaker 2: out and I turned one Oh four or five on.
- 57:09Speaker 2: And they went into a segment. They came out and
- 57:11Speaker 2: they went to break. They came out of breaking, like
- 57:13Speaker 2: breaking news at a bus and with the boys, blah, blah, blah,
- 57:15Speaker 2: tail the one announces on suspension. And they just started
- 57:18Speaker 2: going ham on me.
- 57:19Speaker 10: And I'm like, fuck, this is an awful look.
- 57:22Speaker 2: And then, and then we started, we started two and two.
- 57:26Speaker 2: I came back. I had like four penalties in the game.
- 57:30Speaker 2: Like the first play of the game, I had a penalty.
- 57:32Speaker 2: Ran 20 yards downfield and head-missiled myself into a pile.
- 57:35Speaker 2: And they're like, beep! And it was an X play.
- 57:38Speaker 2: We get done. I mean, you could speak for yourself,
- 57:40Speaker 2: but I remember like the first like eight weeks of
- 57:43Speaker 2: the 2019 football season, I was like, I made a
- 57:46Speaker 2: massive fucking mistake doing this podcast. Like, you're thinking about this.
- 57:48Speaker 10: Because from your perspective, you're probably hearing it from the outside.
- 57:51Speaker 2: You're hearing it from... And also, like, another thing is, like,
- 57:52Speaker 2: you don't know how your teammates understand.
- 57:54Speaker 5: Taylor also just signed the highest deal for O'Lyman in
- 57:56Speaker 5: NFL history.
- 57:56Speaker 2: But then that gave you leverage.
- 57:57Speaker 10: You're like, no, no one's cutting me.
- 57:58Speaker 2: But I didn't do... But, like, yes. He doesn't think
- 58:00Speaker 2: that way. I don't think that way. I was thinking
- 58:01Speaker 2: that way. I was like, oh, he's going to be...
- 58:03Speaker 2: I'm thinking... He ain't going... I'm thinking.
- 58:04Speaker 10: You signed the highest deal and you're worried about the podcast.
- 58:08Speaker 2: Bro, even... Like, I was like... That was, like, year
- 58:10Speaker 2: five or six. True football player. And I was so, well,
- 58:13Speaker 2: I would like call Will and be like, yeah, it's me,
- 58:15Speaker 2: it's me, it's Boss Hog, dude. I came out with
- 58:17Speaker 2: the entire O-line and we sat there, that beaver, Steve
- 58:20Speaker 2: the Beef. But anyway, like, yeah, there was a lot
- 58:23Speaker 2: of like every week, in the first probably like year,
- 58:26Speaker 2: Will and I would call each other after every podcast
- 58:27Speaker 2: on our drive. So I'm like, hey, what'd you think?
- 58:29Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 58:29Speaker 2: What about this?
- 58:30Speaker 10: Like a little worried about you said the wrong thing.
- 58:32Speaker 2: So insecure about all of it. That makes sense though.
- 58:34Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 58:34Speaker 10: Like people that don't, people that don't live in it.
- 58:37Speaker 10: like can't really like even like sean payton like would
- 58:40Speaker 10: do he'd be like don't do anything stupid you can't
- 58:43Speaker 10: do any media like even andy reed was like there's
- 58:46Speaker 10: no filming in the locker rooms there's none of this
- 58:48Speaker 10: and it was so because it was such a a
- 58:50Speaker 10: tight-knit group that you don't want any outside distractions now
- 58:53Speaker 10: i feel like it's completely opposite in turn the other
- 58:56Speaker 10: way the coaches are like ah whatever and it's just
- 58:58Speaker 10: like let's these like show it's like andy reed you
- 59:01Speaker 10: say like let them show your personality. And it's like, okay, yeah,
- 59:04Speaker 10: you do this, but like, you gotta be focused. And
- 59:05Speaker 10: I feel like now it's just like the norm. it's
- 59:07Speaker 10: like i feel but i feel like that's what i'm
- 59:08Speaker 10: saying i feel like you guys made it the norm
- 59:11Speaker 10: there was not another group like mcafee maybe he was
- 59:16Speaker 10: a partner but he got in a bunch of trouble
- 59:18Speaker 10: and he's like obviously like the gold standard in a
- 59:19Speaker 10: lot of ways but i feel like around locker rooms
- 59:23Speaker 10: because i was still playing until 22 like you guys
- 59:26Speaker 10: made it the norm to be like okay yeah you
- 59:28Speaker 10: share your life yeah sure It's okay. It's their personality.
- 59:30Speaker 10: It's opposite of football. And it's like, it doesn't matter.
- 59:34Speaker 10: So I think that's what, I think that's really cool.
- 59:37Speaker 2: We'll catch it.
- 59:38Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah.
- 59:38Speaker 2: We'll receive that compliment. Well, it's true though. We feel uncomfortable.
- 59:41Speaker 2: It's true. It's nice to get that compliment.
- 59:43Speaker 5: It's true.
- 59:44Speaker 2: The trailblazers, whatever you want to.
- 59:46Speaker 4: Call us, heroes.
- 59:47Speaker 9: I didn't say trailblazers.
- 59:48Speaker 2: I hear what you're saying. I didn't say the trailblazers.
- 59:50Speaker 2: McAfee is the gold standard though. He is the guy.
- 59:53Speaker 2: He's the fucking, he's the dude. It is nuts, bro.
- 59:55Speaker 2: It is nuts to sit here and then like watch
- 59:57Speaker 2: it the way it grows. And then now we have
- 59:58Speaker 2: the ESPN show, like, So when it goes back to your,
- 1:00:01Speaker 2: we had Kirk Herbstreit on and he's like, what is
- 1:00:03Speaker 2: you guys' goal with this ESPN thing? And like, hopefully
- 1:00:06Speaker 2: in like a better way, we said, I don't know. Like,
- 1:00:09Speaker 2: it's kind of like, it's like, oh, we've just done, like,
- 1:00:13Speaker 2: I've always been very like spontaneous and like, I'll just
- 1:00:17Speaker 2: go do something. Will is much more like thought out,
- 1:00:19Speaker 2: you know, has his notes and thinks about stuff. But we,
- 1:00:22Speaker 2: with this bus, it's kind of been like, oh, we're
- 1:00:24Speaker 2: just going to go. and figure out what works and
- 1:00:27Speaker 2: what doesn't work. And it's like this failing forward thing
- 1:00:29Speaker 2: that's happened over and over again. So now that we
- 1:00:31Speaker 2: have this ESPN thing, it's like, this is incredible. Like
- 1:00:33Speaker 2: eventually they're going to tell us you guys are no
- 1:00:35Speaker 2: longer good enough to do what you're doing. We might
- 1:00:37Speaker 2: have overthought putting you guys on TV that much. Yeah,
- 1:00:39Speaker 2: we made a mistake by doing this. I don't think so.
- 1:00:42Speaker 2: But until that happens, it's like, how sick is this?
- 1:00:45Speaker 2: And then more doors will open.
- 1:00:47Speaker 10: To have the real estate on ESPN just says a
- 1:00:49Speaker 10: lot about you guys. And we were at Pate's last
- 1:00:52Speaker 10: night and I was like, so what's the plan for
- 1:00:53Speaker 10: the show? He's like, I don't know. We're just going
- 1:00:55Speaker 10: to wing it.
- 1:00:55Speaker 2: He was like, every.
- 1:00:57Speaker 10: Call that we've had, we've kind of just said, we'll
- 1:00:59Speaker 10: figure it out. And honestly though, that's like the best thing.
- 1:01:01Speaker 10: Cause it's an hour show. It'll be 47 minutes with commercial.
- 1:01:03Speaker 10: And you guys are just going to, you guys are
- 1:01:05Speaker 10: going to crush it. It's just, it's like, you just
- 1:01:07Speaker 10: talk football and you set the table for the weekend,
- 1:01:10Speaker 10: you know? And, and it's just, I think we're needing
- 1:01:14Speaker 10: to get away. The more I'm in media now after,
- 1:01:18Speaker 10: you've got to get away from, here's the exact A block,
- 1:01:20Speaker 10: here's the exact B block. People have been served that
- 1:01:22Speaker 10: for so long. And you've got to be able to
- 1:01:25Speaker 10: ebb and flow, and you've got to be able to
- 1:01:26Speaker 10: talk about whatever the hell you want to talk about.
- 1:01:27Speaker 10: Because something might come to you, or you during a show,
- 1:01:29Speaker 10: you're like, let's do this.
- 1:01:30Speaker 2: I'm like, okay.
- 1:01:31Speaker 10: And ESPN's got to understand and let you do that.
- 1:01:34Speaker 10: But that's what I'm excited about, this spontaneity of it.
- 1:01:38Speaker 2: How was it for you? transitioning from being on the
- 1:01:41Speaker 2: football field to like now you're getting the media.
- 1:01:43Speaker 10: Yeah um it was it was it was weird like
- 1:01:47Speaker 10: i never once thought to myself like i'm gonna be
- 1:01:50Speaker 10: in the media like i i always thought like hey
- 1:01:53Speaker 10: i'm gonna play as long as i can like and
- 1:01:55Speaker 10: then when it got to double digits like okay now
- 1:01:57Speaker 10: when's the time then you start really thinking after like
- 1:01:59Speaker 10: year 10 or 11 you're like i don't necessarily want
- 1:02:02Speaker 10: to do this like forever paycheck's nice it's hard to
- 1:02:05Speaker 10: earn you know league minimum which is like 1.3 million
- 1:02:07Speaker 10: or whatever every year um But then I think it
- 1:02:11Speaker 10: sort of switched in 2022, um, where I'd done some
- 1:02:16Speaker 10: like random things for like the teams, like the chargers, like, Oh, Hey,
- 1:02:20Speaker 10: come in and host this show or do this. And
- 1:02:22Speaker 10: I think in 2022, when we did a deal with
- 1:02:25Speaker 10: NFL network, while I was still playing, um, that was
- 1:02:29Speaker 10: something that was really cool because like, I live in
- 1:02:31Speaker 10: San Diego and at the time, The Chargers were in
- 1:02:35Speaker 10: Orange County. They weren't up in LA. So I would
- 1:02:37Speaker 10: just drive from San Diego. We were in North County,
- 1:02:40Speaker 10: San Diego. I would drive every morning to Orange County
- 1:02:43Speaker 10: and every night back. It was like 45 minutes to
- 1:02:45Speaker 10: an hour. So I didn't move up there. But Mondays
- 1:02:50Speaker 10: are like the off days. And so Monday was like
- 1:02:53Speaker 10: my day with the family. And when I got this opportunity,
- 1:02:55Speaker 10: it was like, hey, you're going to be on the
- 1:02:56Speaker 10: Monday night show. So I'd have to go up Monday,
- 1:02:58Speaker 10: have our little, you know, run, lift, everything like that.
- 1:03:02Speaker 10: And then I would go straight to NFL network. So
- 1:03:04Speaker 10: I miss a lot of time with my family that year.
- 1:03:06Speaker 10: And I remember a couple of people, Kirk Herbstreet was like,
- 1:03:09Speaker 10: he's been covering me since college. And so he's been
- 1:03:11Speaker 10: like in my corner from like day one. He's like,
- 1:03:13Speaker 10: you need to do this. You need to do that.
- 1:03:15Speaker 10: And so I was reaching out to him among other
- 1:03:17Speaker 10: people for advice. He's like, look, Chase, for people that
- 1:03:20Speaker 10: have never done it, you're either going to hate it
- 1:03:23Speaker 10: or you're going to love it. Like there's going to
- 1:03:25Speaker 10: be no in-between whatsoever.
- 1:03:28Speaker 2: I'm like, okay.
- 1:03:29Speaker 10: So the first show, I mean, mind you, this is
- 1:03:31Speaker 10: like active player. Like we had just played a game
- 1:03:35Speaker 10: like Sunday and I'm on national television.
- 1:03:40Speaker 2: We, we won. Okay. So you're, so you're feeling a
- 1:03:42Speaker 2: little bit better about that.
- 1:03:43Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:03:43Speaker 10: I'm feeling a little bit better about that. And I
- 1:03:46Speaker 10: had always thought it'd be cool. And then a lot
- 1:03:50Speaker 10: of people don't understand this. Like the first show we did,
- 1:03:53Speaker 10: it was, if you remember, it was Russell Wilson in Denver.
- 1:03:56Speaker 10: Nathaniel Hackett was the head coach. And they were playing
- 1:04:00Speaker 10: the Seattle Seahawks, Russell's old team. So that was the
- 1:04:03Speaker 10: game when Russ played Seattle was the first game of
- 1:04:05Speaker 10: the year. It was Monday night football. And we were
- 1:04:08Speaker 10: on the post game reaction show. And during the whole game,
- 1:04:11Speaker 10: Russell's playing like crap. Everyone's like bad. Nathaniel Hackett. Like,
- 1:04:15Speaker 10: I don't know if you remember that, but it was
- 1:04:16Speaker 10: 2022 and the game ended. I'm pretty sure they, they
- 1:04:21Speaker 10: crapped themselves at the end. And the clock management was
- 1:04:24Speaker 10: so bad by Nathaniel Hackett, like in Russell, it was
- 1:04:28Speaker 10: so bad. And so we're sitting, we're sitting in a
- 1:04:31Speaker 10: meeting room. It's just, they're pulling it up.
- 1:04:35Speaker 5: You're on the chargers talking about in division team.
- 1:04:41Speaker 2: Don't ruin it.
- 1:04:42Speaker 10: Don't ruin the, so we're in this meeting. I'm getting like, uh,
- 1:04:48Speaker 10: and they're talking like, okay, chase. I'm like, I'm just like,
- 1:04:51Speaker 10: this clock management sucks. Like in the meeting, not on air.
- 1:04:55Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:04:55Speaker 2: This is awful.
- 1:04:56Speaker 10: Like, what are they doing? Like they don't clock it.
- 1:04:59Speaker 10: They don't use a timeouts correctly. Like I'm like a
- 1:05:01Speaker 10: nerd about clock management. And so they're like, we're on air.
- 1:05:06Speaker 10: We're on air. The first thing, okay, we're, we're going,
- 1:05:09Speaker 10: we're sitting, we're starting standing up in the NFL network
- 1:05:11Speaker 10: studios and they're like, Chase.
- 1:05:15Speaker 2: You're leading it off. I'm like, what?
- 1:05:18Speaker 10: You're like, you were going to you first. Just say
- 1:05:20Speaker 10: what you said in the meeting. I just like blackout.
- 1:05:22Speaker 10: I blackout. Mind you, the Broncos are in the same
- 1:05:29Speaker 10: division as the Chargers, which I am currently playing. I'm
- 1:05:33Speaker 10: a current player on the Chargers. I go in and
- 1:05:35Speaker 10: I just eviscerate. Oh, you followed through. I eviscerate Russell.
- 1:05:40Speaker 10: I eviscerate Nathaniel Hackett. Like, this guy can't happen. Like,
- 1:05:45Speaker 10: this is a first-time head coach. Like, any good analyst
- 1:05:48Speaker 10: would do. And I swear I go on. What it
- 1:05:52Speaker 10: feels like for two minutes. And other people go, and
- 1:05:55Speaker 10: I'm just like in it. You know, you just get
- 1:05:56Speaker 10: in the zone.
- 1:05:57Speaker 2: I'm in it.
- 1:05:57Speaker 10: Like, red lights on. First time I'd ever been in
- 1:06:00Speaker 10: the camera. And we go to break, and I'm like, yeah,
- 1:06:05Speaker 10: my phone's blowing up. Our producer is in my ear
- 1:06:09Speaker 10: as soon as, because I don't remember what I said.
- 1:06:10Speaker 10: Our producer's in the ear like, hey, you know you're
- 1:06:14Speaker 10: in the same division as.
- 1:06:16Speaker 2: The Broncos, right? And I'm like, oh my God, what
- 1:06:19Speaker 2: did I say?
- 1:06:21Speaker 10: Text from Staley, like Brandon Staley. Text from my wife.
- 1:06:25Speaker 10: Text from, they're like, that's a choice that you made.
- 1:06:28Speaker 6: Yes.
- 1:06:29Speaker 10: And Staley wasn't even mad. He's like, let's just maybe
- 1:06:32Speaker 10: tone it down a little bit. But like, I just,
- 1:06:34Speaker 10: I go on. And so like, I say that because
- 1:06:38Speaker 10: after that moment right there, I'm like, this is why
- 1:06:41Speaker 10: I want to be in TV.
- 1:06:43Speaker 2: Like getting into media.
- 1:06:43Speaker 5: Cause I'm like tearing down other teams. He's the opposite
- 1:06:51Speaker 5: of post-nut clarity.
- 1:06:52Speaker 2: You finish, you're like, I'm ready. Let's go.
- 1:06:55Speaker 10: But like, it's one of those things where after that moment,
- 1:06:57Speaker 10: that's a long story, but like after that moment, I just,
- 1:07:01Speaker 10: I'm like, okay, this.
- 1:07:01Speaker 2: Could be cool.
- 1:07:02Speaker 10: Cause I, I always wanted to stay a part of
- 1:07:04Speaker 10: the game because the game has given us so much.
- 1:07:06Speaker 2: Right.
- 1:07:07Speaker 10: And I was like, okay, I'm going to coach. And
- 1:07:09Speaker 10: I thought that, but after that moment, I'm like, ah,
- 1:07:11Speaker 10: you know, like, like I love my family and I
- 1:07:13Speaker 10: love spending time with them. Dude, if you coach, like
- 1:07:16Speaker 10: my wife would divorce me. There's just no, there's.
- 1:07:18Speaker 2: Just no way. And she's the best.
- 1:07:20Speaker 10: And I got three small kids, nine, uh, six and five. Um,
- 1:07:25Speaker 10: and so after that moment, like, oh, there, this could
- 1:07:27Speaker 10: be like cool. And then we go the whole year.
- 1:07:28Speaker 2: It's sweet.
- 1:07:29Speaker 10: And then that's when I start getting into, so that's
- 1:07:32Speaker 10: a TV, but then I started getting into like the
- 1:07:34Speaker 10: digital media quarterback breakdown stuff. And that's just like, gone
- 1:07:37Speaker 10: crazy so i think to answer your question it's like
- 1:07:39Speaker 10: one of those things where i i didn't know what
- 1:07:41Speaker 10: it would be like and then i got that rush
- 1:07:43Speaker 10: of like being on tv with the red light on
- 1:07:46Speaker 10: and it was cool because it's you're talking ball at
- 1:07:48Speaker 10: the end of the day right and i would say
- 1:07:49Speaker 10: that like yeah i eviscerated in my first one but
- 1:07:51Speaker 10: i i would probably say i'm the most positive almost
- 1:07:55Speaker 10: to a fact of like a lot of people are
- 1:07:57Speaker 10: like qb apologists like there's no bad quarterbacks in this
- 1:07:59Speaker 10: league according to chase about I just know his former players. Like,
- 1:08:03Speaker 10: I don't want anyone talking crap about us.
- 1:08:05Speaker 5: Right.
- 1:08:05Speaker 10: Like if they throw an interception or they do something like,
- 1:08:07Speaker 10: I got to say it because it builds accountability. I'm like, well,
- 1:08:10Speaker 10: maybe he probably should.
- 1:08:11Speaker 5: Have done this more.
- 1:08:12Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:08:12Speaker 2: This is five minutes after we got done ripping packs.
- 1:08:14Speaker 2: And you first saw JJ McCarthy goes, this was probably
- 1:08:16Speaker 2: not worth very much anymore. I did. I did say that.
- 1:08:20Speaker 6: I did.
- 1:08:21Speaker 10: But like, honestly, like, I feel like the further you
- 1:08:24Speaker 10: get away from the game, the less you're worried about
- 1:08:28Speaker 10: ruffling feathers when you do have to say stuff. I'd
- 1:08:30Speaker 10: say like the first couple of years, I was just like,
- 1:08:33Speaker 10: cause as you, you guys do, we all have really
- 1:08:36Speaker 10: good relationships deal with a ton of teams and a
- 1:08:39Speaker 10: ton of players. And so I think that's to me,
- 1:08:41Speaker 10: like I'm year three full now. I'm just like, ah,
- 1:08:45Speaker 10: I'll just say it how it is.
- 1:08:46Speaker 2: Yeah. You know, it is a, that's like one of
- 1:08:48Speaker 2: the harder things for me personally is I don't want,
- 1:08:52Speaker 2: to have like these wild takes about why this guy
- 1:08:55Speaker 2: sucks or this guy is great. And that is one
- 1:08:57Speaker 2: of the harder things to do. And we were doing
- 1:08:59Speaker 2: ESPN every single week is could be just week five
- 1:09:02Speaker 2: where this team that's really good had a down week
- 1:09:04Speaker 2: and they're like, do you think they're done now? I'm like, no,
- 1:09:06Speaker 2: it's like there's 11 more weeks ahead of the football season.
- 1:09:09Speaker 2: And they just are, they, they want these takes that
- 1:09:12Speaker 2: people are talking about it. But for me, it's like,
- 1:09:15Speaker 2: I like standing in the corner of the player, just
- 1:09:17Speaker 2: being like, Hey, this guy, you know, trying to have
- 1:09:19Speaker 2: a good positive spin on it because there's plenty of
- 1:09:22Speaker 2: people out there that are willing to just cut you
- 1:09:25Speaker 2: down at the knees.
- 1:09:25Speaker 10: There's so many people. And some of them are players I've,
- 1:09:30Speaker 10: I've learned and do a bunch of research. Cause I
- 1:09:32Speaker 10: try to get better every year. It's like, if we're
- 1:09:35Speaker 10: doing this, like I want to get better at, I
- 1:09:36Speaker 10: don't want to just stay the same. And so I
- 1:09:38Speaker 10: study different people and deliveries and what they say and
- 1:09:41Speaker 10: how they say it. And most of the people that
- 1:09:44Speaker 10: will cut down players, rightfully so or not rightfully so,
- 1:09:48Speaker 10: are not former players. There are some former players that will.
- 1:09:53Speaker 10: And you can just do it in a better way.
- 1:09:56Speaker 10: You know how they say protect the shield? I try
- 1:10:00Speaker 10: to protect the brotherhood because a lot of people don't
- 1:10:02Speaker 10: understand just how difficult it is to play football. Like
- 1:10:07Speaker 10: they're like, oh, left tackle. Like just go and just
- 1:10:09Speaker 10: like set and just like block him. Like there's only
- 1:10:11Speaker 10: one rush. Like just get his way, bro.
- 1:10:12Speaker 2: All you have to do is stay in the way
- 1:10:13Speaker 2: for 2.7 seconds.
- 1:10:14Speaker 10: Well, you don't understand. Hey, the mic ID might be
- 1:10:16Speaker 10: away from us and I'm not getting help by a guard.
- 1:10:18Speaker 10: I'm not getting chip help. There's all this stuff. And
- 1:10:20Speaker 10: so that's what I try to bring from a quarterback
- 1:10:22Speaker 10: perspective is like, I could break down a, like a
- 1:10:26Speaker 10: stick route that you're probably trying to pick off. You're
- 1:10:28Speaker 10: trying to use your eyes and let's just say a
- 1:10:30Speaker 10: tight end goes up, turns right at six yards. You're like,
- 1:10:32Speaker 10: this is so easy for a quarterback. When in reality,
- 1:10:35Speaker 10: you got to get the whole picture. Well, the free
- 1:10:37Speaker 10: safety is down.
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:10:38Speaker 10: I don't want to throw, I don't want to throw
- 1:10:39Speaker 10: a stick versus single high zone because you got an
- 1:10:41Speaker 10: extra backer underneath.
- 1:10:42Speaker 2: All right.
- 1:10:42Speaker 10: Now the free safety goes back. Now you're running, reading
- 1:10:44Speaker 10: it off the eyes on the mic. Now you want
- 1:10:46Speaker 10: to read outside. So like, there's so much more that
- 1:10:48Speaker 10: goes into playing football at every position, not just quarterback
- 1:10:53Speaker 10: that I, that's the, I keep that in the back
- 1:10:56Speaker 10: of my mind, even when I'm calling games for ESPN.
- 1:10:59Speaker 10: It's like, that's what I try to feel is like
- 1:11:01Speaker 10: from a player standpoint, like what makes the most sense,
- 1:11:04Speaker 10: what happens, what doesn't happen.
- 1:11:06Speaker 5: Yeah. And you only got so much time to get
- 1:11:08Speaker 5: that out too. That's why the breakdown in the podcasting
- 1:11:12Speaker 5: can be that world where you break it down even
- 1:11:13Speaker 5: more because on TV, you only got so much time
- 1:11:17Speaker 5: to get something out. And there's flavors of, you know,
- 1:11:20Speaker 5: not being on the fence about something and being a
- 1:11:22Speaker 5: little more, Hey, this is how it should have went
- 1:11:24Speaker 5: being a little bit more critical. And your point too,
- 1:11:26Speaker 5: like even when not wanting to talk about, you're like
- 1:11:29Speaker 5: protecting the brotherhood. It's like, as you do get more removed,
- 1:11:33Speaker 5: you also realize how much in a bubble we all
- 1:11:36Speaker 5: are as well. So then when somebody is getting mad,
- 1:11:38Speaker 5: I have empathy for, because yeah, I know you're in
- 1:11:41Speaker 5: that bubble, but there's such a different game and an
- 1:11:44Speaker 5: element that goes on. That's really, it's like, it's not
- 1:11:46Speaker 5: that big of a deal than what you're making it.
- 1:11:47Speaker 2: Out to It's a conversation similar to the Deshaun Watson
- 1:11:50Speaker 2: press conference that took place where he was just like
- 1:11:53Speaker 2: totally ignorant to all the other things of why he
- 1:11:55Speaker 2: could possibly be getting booed, but he's so like zoomed
- 1:11:58Speaker 2: into his personal feelings. Yeah. And we all like, there's
- 1:12:01Speaker 2: a massive issue with main character syndrome that takes place
- 1:12:03Speaker 2: for I think all athletes, but especially in a locker
- 1:12:05Speaker 2: room where it's like, that's the massaging part where if
- 1:12:08Speaker 2: I say something in week one about a guy, how
- 1:12:10Speaker 2: he needs to be better, he can't play like this
- 1:12:13Speaker 2: or otherwise they won't win games. Like week 17, he
- 1:12:16Speaker 2: might play great. But if he saw that take of
- 1:12:18Speaker 2: me saying that, I see him in April, he's gonna
- 1:12:20Speaker 2: be like, no, fuck you. Remember what you said in
- 1:12:22Speaker 2: week one? I was like, no, I really don't remember
- 1:12:23Speaker 2: what I said in week one.
- 1:12:24Speaker 10: No, it's literally a week to week thing.
- 1:12:26Speaker 2: It's a week to week deal that's taking place here.
- 1:12:28Speaker 2: And like with this stuff, it's like. Thank you.
- 1:12:32Speaker 4: It's like.
- 1:12:32Speaker 5: And when I've sort of fleetingly said overrated in the
- 1:12:35Speaker 5: production meeting, they put pressure on me to say it
- 1:12:37Speaker 5: on air.
- 1:12:39Speaker 2: That is the funniest. Um, that you need to tell
- 1:12:42Speaker 2: that story to chase. Cause that is one of the
- 1:12:44Speaker 2: funnier things that happened. Yeah. Week eight or nine. Every Wednesday.
- 1:12:49Speaker 2: So we finished our locker room. We do college in NFL.
- 1:12:52Speaker 2: And then after that, we would go into ESPNs like
- 1:12:55Speaker 2: pre-production meeting or like pre pre-production. Hey, this is the
- 1:12:58Speaker 2: stuff we're going to talk about. These are the games
- 1:13:00Speaker 2: you should know.
- 1:13:00Speaker 5: Colts might've been four or five and one at this point. Yeah.
- 1:13:04Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:13:04Speaker 2: They were, the Colts were on a heater. And they
- 1:13:07Speaker 2: basically every week, they're like, what are you, what's your
- 1:13:09Speaker 2: hottest take this week? And that's where I'd always be like,
- 1:13:12Speaker 2: fuck dude. All right.
- 1:13:13Speaker 5: We'll figure something out. We haven't had a whole lot
- 1:13:14Speaker 5: of time to think about it.
- 1:13:16Speaker 2: Yeah. It's not like we're not nasty boys. We don't
- 1:13:20Speaker 2: want to be nasty boys about these things, but we'll
- 1:13:22Speaker 2: get on a call. Cause I think I went some,
- 1:13:24Speaker 2: I went to go get a haircut or something. You
- 1:13:25Speaker 2: were doing something, but go ahead. I go do your thing.
- 1:13:28Speaker 2: They were cause they were doing like this straight out
- 1:13:30Speaker 2: of Compton segment.
- 1:13:31Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:13:31Speaker 5: And they're like, what are you feeling?
- 1:13:33Speaker 2: What are your hottest things? A lot of times I'll
- 1:13:35Speaker 2: be like, oh, I have no clue yet. Like I'll
- 1:13:36Speaker 2: think on it and I'll get back to it.
- 1:13:38Speaker 10: Are they saying what is your hottest take or what
- 1:13:39Speaker 10: are you feeling the best about?
- 1:13:41Speaker 2: You know that bugs them because they want to be
- 1:13:43Speaker 2: ahead of the change on what they have to do.
- 1:13:44Speaker 5: Yeah, so then they'll start talking through a few things.
- 1:13:47Speaker 5: They'll bring up the Colts and I'll say something like,
- 1:13:50Speaker 5: I think Colts are kind of a pig with lipstick
- 1:13:51Speaker 5: right now. And it comes back later on the call,
- 1:13:54Speaker 5: they're kind of going through restructuring. They're like, what were
- 1:13:57Speaker 5: they saying, Klump? Like, so Will, you think the Colts
- 1:14:00Speaker 5: are overrated? Or something. I'm like, I think the Colts
- 1:14:04Speaker 5: can be kind of a pig with lipstick based on.
- 1:14:06Speaker 2: Will Compton was on the struggle bus during Get Up
- 1:14:09Speaker 2: this morning. Why is that? That came up on the
- 1:14:12Speaker 2: Herbst Street episode.
- 1:14:13Speaker 5: That might have been the Vikings thing that happened.
- 1:14:16Speaker 2: You know what's so funny about that is that was
- 1:14:18Speaker 2: such a funny moment to me. I had no idea
- 1:14:20Speaker 2: there was an article written about it. Yeah.
- 1:14:23Speaker 5: But my logic on the pig with lipstick is just
- 1:14:26Speaker 5: like who the Colts had played and how good that
- 1:14:28Speaker 5: their offense was playing. Like they could get got. very soon,
- 1:14:31Speaker 5: but they wanted me to lean into, they're like, so
- 1:14:33Speaker 5: Will's got the Colts, Colts are overrated, an overrated football team.
- 1:14:35Speaker 5: I was like, oh, I don't want to say like
- 1:14:37Speaker 5: they're overrated. I'm just saying, I think that they could
- 1:14:40Speaker 5: be a pick with lipstick based on like who they've played.
- 1:14:43Speaker 5: And they go on about Colts being overrated to where
- 1:14:45Speaker 5: it's on the production sheet. And I kind of got
- 1:14:47Speaker 5: to lean into the Colts being overrated.
- 1:14:50Speaker 11: And so Will's exact thing was like, I didn't say that.
- 1:14:54Speaker 2: They're like, yeah, Colts are overrated. Is this the take
- 1:14:57Speaker 2: right here?
- 1:14:57Speaker 5: I said I mentioned who they've played and how they
- 1:15:00Speaker 5: got a tough game this week or blah, blah, blah.
- 1:15:02Speaker 5: And so I go into it. And next thing you know,
- 1:15:04Speaker 5: it's like Pat hits me up. He's fascinating or interesting.
- 1:15:09Speaker 5: You've got the Colts. He's like, oh, Willie. I forget
- 1:15:11Speaker 5: what he said. But he messaged me kind of busting
- 1:15:13Speaker 5: my balls. I'm like, bro, I don't think they're a
- 1:15:16Speaker 5: bad football team.
- 1:15:17Speaker 2: They have it on the thing.
- 1:15:19Speaker 10: Will Compton, Colts are overrated.
- 1:15:20Speaker 2: Or the Colts overrated a 5-1. Look.
- 1:15:24Speaker 4: The Colts are overrated.
- 1:15:27Speaker 2: At five and one. Look at Taylor's face. Look at
- 1:15:29Speaker 2: Taylor's face. What are you thinking during that time? Bro,
- 1:15:32Speaker 2: when we go to break and they're like, because we
- 1:15:34Speaker 2: have the sheet, like, okay, this is the next thing
- 1:15:36Speaker 2: we're going to talk about. And we fly to New
- 1:15:38Speaker 2: York and I'm like, they got me as Colts. The
- 1:15:40Speaker 2: Colts are overrated. I got to say the Colts are overrated.
- 1:15:42Speaker 2: It's not just one time. I talked to Will about
- 1:15:44Speaker 2: this four or five times. He's like, I can't believe
- 1:15:46Speaker 2: they're making me. And I'm like, ah. You don't have to.
- 1:15:48Speaker 2: In my brain, it's never crossed my mind that Will
- 1:15:51Speaker 2: can go, I don't want to do it.
- 1:15:52Speaker 7: It's never crossed my mind.
- 1:15:53Speaker 2: You can say, I don't want to. He's like, hey,
- 1:15:56Speaker 2: we're going to have this go down. And we're always like,
- 1:15:58Speaker 2: got it. You're absolutely ESPN, new shield for us. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:16:01Speaker 2: I'm like, yeah, man, that kind of stuff. I'm sorry.
- 1:16:04Speaker 2: I'm sorry that's happening. And yeah, while they're going at it,
- 1:16:06Speaker 2: we look at the sheet and I'm like, oh, you
- 1:16:08Speaker 2: got straight out of Compton next. And I was like,
- 1:16:10Speaker 2: and I just pointed to Colton. He's like, I know, man.
- 1:16:13Speaker 2: And the other thing about Will and I, and this
- 1:16:14Speaker 2: is for any production team that ever works with us.
- 1:16:16Speaker 2: Are you talking yourself up during this? Will and I will.
- 1:16:18Speaker 5: I'm just thinking of all the things that I'm going
- 1:16:20Speaker 5: to say.
- 1:16:20Speaker 2: We'll be mic'd up. And once we get a commercial break,
- 1:16:23Speaker 2: Will and I just believe that we're no longer mic'd up.
- 1:16:25Speaker 2: So we're talking about all the things. I'm sure the
- 1:16:27Speaker 2: production team is like, oh, fuck. Will hates it. He's
- 1:16:30Speaker 2: about to do this.
- 1:16:31Speaker 11: Still.
- 1:16:32Speaker 2: That goes to Jimmy Pataro. He's listening. Dude, he stood
- 1:16:37Speaker 2: at the front lines and he swung that sword. with,
- 1:16:39Speaker 2: and it seemed like he 100% believed it. Can we
- 1:16:40Speaker 2: hear the take for our new shield? For our new shield?
- 1:16:44Speaker 2: For our new shield. What's crazy though is they go
- 1:16:46Speaker 2: five and one, I think they drop like next six
- 1:16:48Speaker 2: or nine games. No, who's right? Who's right? That's what
- 1:16:51Speaker 2: I'm saying, they didn't make the plan, like who's right?
- 1:16:53Speaker 2: Danny Times goes down like two weeks later and they
- 1:16:57Speaker 2: just went boom down there and it's like okay Compton
- 1:17:00Speaker 2: alright that's one you can call back on and I
- 1:17:03Speaker 2: think he does he does call back to it like
- 1:17:05Speaker 2: right before the playoffs and he's like you know Willie
- 1:17:07Speaker 2: boy he called it out there this motherfucker didn't even
- 1:17:11Speaker 2: believe it sneaky Jaguars sneaky Jaguars that's.
- 1:17:14Speaker 5: One where you're positively talking about for sure yeah it's
- 1:17:18Speaker 5: the ones that you just They are five and one.
- 1:17:20Speaker 2: It is early.
- 1:17:21Speaker 5: And it's like a negative thing that you're having to
- 1:17:23Speaker 5: do where you just- But like, yeah. I'm uncomfortable doing it.
- 1:17:26Speaker 2: It's like the Eagles.
- 1:17:27Speaker 3: But you were right.
- 1:17:27Speaker 2: I was leaning in on the Eagles, like hating on
- 1:17:29Speaker 2: the Eagles. Yeah.
- 1:17:30Speaker 5: I think I said the pig with lipstick maybe every
- 1:17:32Speaker 5: week with the Eagles because they were still winning. But
- 1:17:36Speaker 5: that's when you hear a lot of things off outside
- 1:17:39Speaker 5: of the cameras that you're like, all right, something's going
- 1:17:41Speaker 5: to happen here to where the Eagles aren't going to
- 1:17:43Speaker 5: make it.
- 1:17:43Speaker 2: Yeah. And it worked out.
- 1:17:46Speaker 9: Do we want to hear the actual take?
- 1:17:49Speaker 2: I don't have my headphones. You should be able to. Dolphins, Titans, Raiders, Cardinals,
- 1:17:58Speaker 2: the Broncos, they're.
- 1:18:04Speaker 7: Whoa. Hold on. Daniel Jones has been absolutely fantastic. I
- 1:18:10Speaker 7: think they've got one of the best slot receivers, Josh.
- 1:18:12Speaker 2: Downs in football. The only caveat I'd say is this is.
- 1:18:15Speaker 7: The first week this season that this past game against
- 1:18:17Speaker 7: the Cardinals, Daniel Jones, this year looked like Daniel Jones
- 1:18:21Speaker 7: of the past.
- 1:18:22Speaker 5: One reception should have had another one. Is that the blip.
- 1:18:25Speaker 10: In the season?
- 1:18:27Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:18:28Speaker 10: He's very TV trained.
- 1:18:31Speaker 2: This is, you say it with your chest. Oh, I mean,
- 1:18:33Speaker 2: you say it like right. You fully bought in.
- 1:18:36Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:18:36Speaker 2: This is, I got a pose.
- 1:18:37Speaker 5: I got a pose to take. And then Dan, the
- 1:18:39Speaker 5: boys kind of break.
- 1:18:40Speaker 2: Oh, so you, okay. So he has three, he has
- 1:18:43Speaker 2: three straight out of Comptons. And then we all kind
- 1:18:44Speaker 2: of break down what Will said. And then what'd you,
- 1:18:46Speaker 2: what'd you say? I think I just went with Will.
- 1:18:48Speaker 2: I was like, yeah, fuck him.
- 1:18:49Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 1:18:51Speaker 7: It.
- 1:18:51Speaker 2: We're in this together, boys. We're all about this. We're
- 1:18:54Speaker 2: in this together, boys. Like a couple of weeks after that,
- 1:18:56Speaker 2: it ended up just being me and Will after that.
- 1:18:58Speaker 2: It was at the, at the table for a little bit.
- 1:19:00Speaker 2: And then eventually like, all right, just Will and Taylor
- 1:19:02Speaker 2: do this shit at Compton. I'm like, oh shit, okay.
- 1:19:04Speaker 2: Cause that was kind of like a nice little, I
- 1:19:06Speaker 2: can chill in this segment, kind of hang out. We'll
- 1:19:08Speaker 2: kind of size it up.
- 1:19:09Speaker 10: And y'all are doing that again this year, but from
- 1:19:11Speaker 10: the bus.
- 1:19:11Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll do the bus this year. But I think
- 1:19:13Speaker 2: we'll be on like a little shorter. I think we'll
- 1:19:16Speaker 2: be on a little shorter. So it's not the whole.
- 1:19:18Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 1:19:19Speaker 10: You're trying to get this like, oh, let's do like
- 1:19:21Speaker 10: two segments.
- 1:19:21Speaker 2: I think we'll do. I think we're going to do
- 1:19:22Speaker 2: like the back half, the last 30, 45 minutes probably.
- 1:19:26Speaker 2: I'll be good.
- 1:19:27Speaker 5: We'll probably be in on the full. Yeah.
- 1:19:29Speaker 2: I think it's us with Hawk. Like, Hawk hit us up.
- 1:19:31Speaker 5: He's like, hey, are you guys still doing Get Up
- 1:19:32Speaker 5: this year?
- 1:19:33Speaker 2: Yeah. It's a good crew. It's just Hawk and Greeny. Yeah.
- 1:19:37Speaker 2: For two hours. All right, Hawk, do your thing, man.
- 1:19:39Speaker 5: Dude, we had so much fun because the Breakfast Club.
- 1:19:42Speaker 10: How was that transition? Not transitioning, but, like, you guys
- 1:19:44Speaker 10: have done so much digital and blew this thing up.
- 1:19:47Speaker 10: How was it going to ESPN, like, last year?
- 1:19:51Speaker 3: Like, with that?
- 1:19:51Speaker 10: Was that your first full?
- 1:19:53Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 1:19:53Speaker 2: Yeah, that was our first time.
- 1:19:54Speaker 10: So what are the differences? Because I'm interested because ESPN. Well,
- 1:19:57Speaker 10: I've sort of flipped. I've been on TV so much.
- 1:19:59Speaker 10: I did like 240 studio shows one year at the facility.
- 1:20:03Speaker 10: And I'm just now starting to do more. So for
- 1:20:06Speaker 10: your perspective, what was your experience like doing the TV?
- 1:20:12Speaker 5: A little nerve wracking. Because it's live.
- 1:20:16Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:20:16Speaker 5: And all the production stuff around it. Yeah.
- 1:20:20Speaker 2: The weird thing is it seems way bigger than it
- 1:20:21Speaker 2: actually is because of all the production stuff. Yeah. Like
- 1:20:23Speaker 2: us being used to, and I don't even know if
- 1:20:25Speaker 2: we ever really got used.
- 1:20:26Speaker 5: We just kind of like figured out this is what
- 1:20:28Speaker 5: they're going to want from us when we're on this
- 1:20:29Speaker 5: phone call. We're going to tell them we don't know,
- 1:20:31Speaker 5: but we're going to have something spicy and ready to
- 1:20:32Speaker 5: go by the next day. And just working like Taylor
- 1:20:35Speaker 5: and I would almost, instead of us delivering all the
- 1:20:38Speaker 5: things that we're hot on or like feel about, we
- 1:20:40Speaker 5: want to know. what headlines and stuff they're wanting to
- 1:20:44Speaker 5: talk about or what team, so that way we could
- 1:20:45Speaker 5: formulate whatever it is we feel.
- 1:20:48Speaker 2: Because we would also... It's like we'd be.
- 1:20:51Speaker 5: You do reaction show, and mostly with just Greg Olson
- 1:20:54Speaker 5: on Mondays. Allow Greg to talk.
- 1:20:56Speaker 4: Yep.
- 1:20:56Speaker 5: Because catching every game is insanely hard.
- 1:20:58Speaker 2: Especially with two kids. Very difficult.
- 1:20:59Speaker 5: We talk college football. We recap college football. We do
- 1:21:02Speaker 5: our bussing intro. Probably do a bussing interview that week
- 1:21:05Speaker 5: if we had somebody in the shop. Then when you're
- 1:21:07Speaker 5: prepping for our Wednesday locker room show with Josh Bate,
- 1:21:11Speaker 5: it's all college football that we're prepping for like on Monday,
- 1:21:15Speaker 5: not on Tuesday to get ready to go for college.
- 1:21:17Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:21:17Speaker 5: Then when college gets done, you're thinking all about, you know, Thursday,
- 1:21:22Speaker 5: the Thursday show, which we did both in the same day.
- 1:21:25Speaker 5: So you're not like you don't have all of it encompassing.
- 1:21:27Speaker 4: It's hard.
- 1:21:28Speaker 5: We're kind of spread thin everywhere to where it's like
- 1:21:30Speaker 5: a focus thing at a time.
- 1:21:32Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:21:32Speaker 5: Then you'd have to turn it off. Lean on Taylor,
- 1:21:34Speaker 5: Clay Delaney when we do our NFL show.
- 1:21:37Speaker 2: Those get done.
- 1:21:37Speaker 5: Then you've got to get on the call with ESPN.
- 1:21:39Speaker 5: It's like there aren't things that we're necessarily hot on
- 1:21:41Speaker 5: as far as what. our picks might be, but the
- 1:21:44Speaker 5: inside details, the stories, the drama, we aren't necessarily there yet.
- 1:21:48Speaker 5: We need the rest of the day, Wednesday to kind
- 1:21:50Speaker 5: of sit on it and prep. They want things on
- 1:21:53Speaker 5: the afternoon, the production team wants to know what you're
- 1:21:55Speaker 5: hot on so they can build out their production sheet
- 1:21:58Speaker 5: for everybody that they have to answer to.
- 1:22:00Speaker 2: Yeah. Like we would be on the plane on Wednesday
- 1:22:03Speaker 2: night after putting our kids to sleep, flying into New
- 1:22:05Speaker 2: York at like midnight, getting to the hotel around one
- 1:22:07Speaker 2: and waking up at five and then like quick turnaround.
- 1:22:10Speaker 2: But that flight from Nashville to Teterboro, wherever we were going,
- 1:22:15Speaker 2: this is how it helps me is like kind of
- 1:22:16Speaker 2: going through it. So we would have like loosely what
- 1:22:19Speaker 2: the sheet would be. And I would try to go
- 1:22:21Speaker 2: back and forth with Will about my thoughts, his thoughts,
- 1:22:24Speaker 2: how I could like kind of serve Will up with
- 1:22:25Speaker 2: something and vice versa. And I think after like, Week three,
- 1:22:29Speaker 2: I was like, okay, this is, this is more fun
- 1:22:32Speaker 2: than it is a job. The first three weeks for
- 1:22:34Speaker 2: me was like, okay, I got to like, this is ESPN.
- 1:22:36Speaker 2: This is this. And then once you realize like, oh,
- 1:22:38Speaker 2: we're just talking about football. Like we're just kind of
- 1:22:41Speaker 2: getting the same. We're here to have a take on something,
- 1:22:43Speaker 2: but also have it be enjoyable for anybody who's sitting
- 1:22:46Speaker 2: up in the morning, getting their coffee going. And that's
- 1:22:48Speaker 2: when it became like way less.
- 1:22:50Speaker 5: Oh my God.
- 1:22:50Speaker 2: There's so much.
- 1:22:51Speaker 4: It does.
- 1:22:52Speaker 10: It does seem, it does seem like a lot bigger
- 1:22:54Speaker 10: than like, yeah, you're going to a massive audience, but it's, it's,
- 1:22:59Speaker 10: I would say like the biggest thing is the environment,
- 1:23:02Speaker 10: the environment where there's so many people, there's audio, there's video,
- 1:23:05Speaker 10: there's production crew, there's all sorts of things. And there's,
- 1:23:08Speaker 10: it's a big, massive studio in New York. In reality,
- 1:23:10Speaker 10: it's just like, okay, once you get the flow of
- 1:23:12Speaker 10: the show, just like bussing, it's like, okay, this is
- 1:23:14Speaker 10: the flow of the show. Like, this is easy because
- 1:23:16Speaker 10: you just, then you just sort of be yourself and,
- 1:23:18Speaker 10: But it does- But.
- 1:23:19Speaker 2: Being yourself is hard too when you're going into their world.
- 1:23:23Speaker 2: Much quicker runway. Like I knew we're lost, but it's
- 1:23:25Speaker 2: not like we've spent- You got a minute to talk
- 1:23:27Speaker 2: about cam work.
- 1:23:28Speaker 3: That's it.
- 1:23:29Speaker 2: That's all. And you have to come with your heat.
- 1:23:30Speaker 2: Like if you have- Lead with your best stuff. Three
- 1:23:32Speaker 2: things you like, you got to go with the first one.
- 1:23:34Speaker 4: Yes, yes.
- 1:23:34Speaker 2: You got to have that because- The thing I love
- 1:23:36Speaker 2: about this is we could sit here for two hours
- 1:23:38Speaker 2: and just talk. Oh shit. Hey, another thing about cam
- 1:23:41Speaker 2: work an hour later. Yeah. But you can't do that
- 1:23:44Speaker 2: because you're, everyone's, there's such a fast paced, leading with
- 1:23:46Speaker 2: your best stuff. You just got to go. The hardest
- 1:23:48Speaker 2: thing that I, for me was just the beginning of
- 1:23:50Speaker 2: the show. It was like, Hey, what are you hot
- 1:23:51Speaker 2: on today, Taylor? And I'd be like, fucking Eagles. I
- 1:23:55Speaker 2: don't know. And then they did a run like a
- 1:23:57Speaker 2: 32nd thing and you have to talk over it. But
- 1:23:59Speaker 2: I didn't realize that.
- 1:24:00Speaker 10: For the first two, three weeks.
- 1:24:02Speaker 2: I was just like, I'm big on the Eagles this week, man.
- 1:24:04Speaker 2: Can't wait to see you here or whatever.
- 1:24:05Speaker 10: Here's my thing about TV is you get paid to
- 1:24:10Speaker 10: have an opinion.
- 1:24:11Speaker 2: That's what they tell you. But a lot of times,
- 1:24:14Speaker 2: I don't have an opinion. I don't have an opinion.
- 1:24:17Speaker 10: That's what I think the hardest thing for the facility
- 1:24:19Speaker 10: with Emmanuel Acho, James Jones, and Shady McCoy.
- 1:24:22Speaker 2: Great group.
- 1:24:23Speaker 10: But it's a two-hour show, and they're like, tell me
- 1:24:26Speaker 10: what you think about Dak. I'm like, I don't think
- 1:24:27Speaker 10: anything about Dak. I haven't really thought about it ever.
- 1:24:29Speaker 10: Like I can think of pros and cons.
- 1:24:32Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:24:32Speaker 10: I'm like, I kind of root for the cons.
- 1:24:34Speaker 2: I want to see it play out. Hey, what do
- 1:24:36Speaker 2: you think about it?
- 1:24:36Speaker 10: I'm like, like there's stuff that I don't have, but
- 1:24:39Speaker 10: you literally have to have an opinion.
- 1:24:41Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:24:41Speaker 10: Like, not like an opinion, like a hot take, but like, well,
- 1:24:44Speaker 10: what are you going to talk about? And I think
- 1:24:45Speaker 10: that's the hardest thing for me to still say when
- 1:24:47Speaker 10: I'm doing NFL live, they're like.
- 1:24:49Speaker 2: Well, okay, well, we're going to talk about the Jaguars.
- 1:24:52Speaker 10: I don't have, I don't have anything to say about Jaguars.
- 1:24:54Speaker 2: Yeah. You know, Trevor Lawrence, great. Liam Cohn.
- 1:24:57Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:24:57Speaker 10: And so I think that's, was the hardest part for me.
- 1:24:59Speaker 5: I think coming from our world, like what we do
- 1:25:01Speaker 5: on here and then going out and you're sitting with
- 1:25:04Speaker 5: guys like Mike Greenberg, Adam Schefter, Orlowski, guys that you said,
- 1:25:10Speaker 5: you sat there and watched and you feel like that's
- 1:25:12Speaker 5: the stage. That's the, That's the lights. That's everything else.
- 1:25:16Speaker 5: So it was almost, it was almost hard. They did
- 1:25:18Speaker 5: a great job of making us feel comfortable. There's almost
- 1:25:20Speaker 5: a part of you of like, okay, I got to
- 1:25:21Speaker 5: come a little bit more correct. Cause we're sitting there
- 1:25:23Speaker 5: in pre-pro and Greeny might look at you and ask
- 1:25:25Speaker 5: what you think. And if you sound dumb, you're like, fuck,
- 1:25:27Speaker 5: he's not even going to come to me or anything.
- 1:25:29Speaker 5: So breakfast club really helped us. And then when you're
- 1:25:32Speaker 5: on the set and you say a couple of the
- 1:25:33Speaker 5: things that you would say that is authentic to us,
- 1:25:36Speaker 5: that would have a little bit of personality and And
- 1:25:38Speaker 5: you get Shefty and Greenberg to laugh a little bit.
- 1:25:41Speaker 5: And Orlovsky, like I knew Hawk. It's like, I've known
- 1:25:44Speaker 5: him for a little bit to where I knew we
- 1:25:45Speaker 5: were going to have some fun. But once you got
- 1:25:47Speaker 5: them laughing at the jokes, it's like, okay, I feel much.
- 1:25:50Speaker 2: More in my element. For sure. That's such a good point.
- 1:25:52Speaker 2: Because we're like the young guys making Greeny laugh. And
- 1:25:54Speaker 2: the biggest thing is like, ESPN wasn't bringing us in
- 1:25:56Speaker 2: to be Dan Orlovsky, Sheft, or Greeny. They're bringing the vibes.
- 1:26:00Speaker 2: They're bringing us in because we're us. And then that
- 1:26:03Speaker 2: was a hard thing too, because you do want to like,
- 1:26:05Speaker 2: It's like entering a team.
- 1:26:06Speaker 5: Show what you know.
- 1:26:06Speaker 2: What's the culture of your team?
- 1:26:07Speaker 3: Prove yourself.
- 1:26:07Speaker 2: Yeah, you're going to walk into a culture. This is
- 1:26:09Speaker 2: who we are. It's like, okay, I'm going to become that.
- 1:26:11Speaker 2: So true. I have to become that to be successful
- 1:26:13Speaker 2: in this area I'm at. So true. And now it's
- 1:26:15Speaker 2: just different where it's like, okay, Will and Taylor, we
- 1:26:17Speaker 2: like what you guys do on the bus. Bring that
- 1:26:18Speaker 2: to ESPN. And it's like, oh, shit. Okay. Well, how
- 1:26:21Speaker 2: do I do that? How do I do that in
- 1:26:22Speaker 2: a minute? How do I do that in my minute answer?
- 1:26:23Speaker 5: You still fight it. But there was like- I'm just
- 1:26:26Speaker 5: fucking around.
- 1:26:27Speaker 2: I'm kidding. Yeah.
- 1:26:28Speaker 5: And then kind of talk about it on the pod.
- 1:26:29Speaker 2: Exactly.
- 1:26:29Speaker 5: Because you have more time.
- 1:26:30Speaker 9: Exactly.
- 1:26:31Speaker 2: But the times that we would, get into the conversational
- 1:26:34Speaker 2: piece where Greeny would like serve us up. And then
- 1:26:36Speaker 2: we'd all be able to talk for the 15 minutes
- 1:26:39Speaker 2: or whatever it is. There'd always be somebody that comes
- 1:26:41Speaker 2: in and be like, we love that segment. Great job.
- 1:26:43Speaker 2: And I'm like, okay. So that's what you guys want.
- 1:26:45Speaker 2: It's not just thumbing to the next thing and make
- 1:26:47Speaker 2: sure we keep you a hard bookmark on everything to
- 1:26:49Speaker 2: go to the next stuff. It's like, let's open it
- 1:26:51Speaker 2: up and let's just go. And that's where this show
- 1:26:53Speaker 2: on Friday is going to be awesome. And that's what
- 1:26:55Speaker 2: I think.
- 1:26:56Speaker 10: It's so hard to understand if you haven't done a
- 1:26:58Speaker 10: lot of studio, like live in studio TV stuff. It's
- 1:27:01Speaker 10: different than here. is that the best segments are not
- 1:27:04Speaker 10: at a producer in your year.
- 1:27:06Speaker 2: Okay. Chase you.
- 1:27:06Speaker 3: Okay.
- 1:27:07Speaker 10: Let's just say it's a, are the, cause everyone talks
- 1:27:09Speaker 10: about it. Are the Cowboys going to win a Superbowl?
- 1:27:11Speaker 10: It'll be what is not good. It's like, okay, Taylor,
- 1:27:14Speaker 10: tell me your one minute answer on your thought on
- 1:27:18Speaker 10: the Cowboys.
- 1:27:18Speaker 2: Okay.
- 1:27:19Speaker 10: Then we're going to go to will, and then we're
- 1:27:20Speaker 10: going to go to chase and then we're going to
- 1:27:22Speaker 10: go to Dan and dude the best are like you
- 1:27:24Speaker 10: start us off and then i might not be going
- 1:27:27Speaker 10: second but i'm like hold on wait what did you
- 1:27:29Speaker 10: just like no no no and then and then the
- 1:27:31Speaker 10: conversation flows and it's a 15 minute block like that's
- 1:27:34Speaker 10: the best tv and but that's so much harder to
- 1:27:37Speaker 10: do because when your first couple doing it you're like
- 1:27:39Speaker 10: well am i allowed to do that yeah like am
- 1:27:41Speaker 10: i not allowed to do it like you know.
- 1:27:43Speaker 5: And also we knew espn wanted us to go but
- 1:27:45Speaker 5: then there may i'll speak for myself and i'm like
- 1:27:47Speaker 5: does Greeny, did Greeny want us to be on the show?
- 1:27:49Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. Cause Greeny, Greeny is a dude that like,
- 1:27:51Speaker 2: he walks into his office and somebody moved his cup.
- 1:27:53Speaker 2: Like he knows the cup was moved. For sure. Which you,
- 1:27:56Speaker 2: the seat that he sits in on that show, like
- 1:27:58Speaker 2: you need a guy like that. No doubt. So you
- 1:27:59Speaker 2: don't want to ruffle their feathers, but you also want
- 1:28:02Speaker 2: to like, kind of make space for your own personality
- 1:28:04Speaker 2: to live in the same ecosystem. But it would do overall,
- 1:28:07Speaker 2: I give it a 4.5. It was awesome. We had
- 1:28:09Speaker 2: a great time. They were great, man.
- 1:28:10Speaker 5: We had a lot of fun.
- 1:28:11Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:28:12Speaker 5: Going up there once we got the whole personality. We
- 1:28:14Speaker 5: interrupt this episode to shout out Rose Sparks. The older

- 1:30:18Speaker 2: with a, with a quarterback breakdowns, when did you like,
- 1:30:20Speaker 2: that's a, that's a monster. Clearly. When did you fall
- 1:30:23Speaker 2: into that? Be like, oh, this is something that's going
- 1:30:25Speaker 2: to be massive for me. It's a great call.
- 1:30:27Speaker 10: So after, so 2022 with the story of the Interval Network,
- 1:30:32Speaker 10: I had worked there. I just signed a one-year deal
- 1:30:34Speaker 10: to do the show. And I knew I had an
- 1:30:37Speaker 10: offer out from the Raiders to the next year to
- 1:30:41Speaker 10: be their backup and to sign with them. But I
- 1:30:45Speaker 10: was just like, well, my wife was like, good luck.
- 1:30:48Speaker 2: I'm not moving. You can go.
- 1:30:49Speaker 10: To Las Vegas, but I'm staying here. Cause we were
- 1:30:51Speaker 10: in San Diego. We were in our house or forever home.
- 1:30:54Speaker 10: And you know, like as a backup, you moved to
- 1:30:57Speaker 10: so many different spots and you're like a nomad. So
- 1:30:59Speaker 10: when your wife's like, I'm staying here, I'm like, okay, I'm.
- 1:31:00Speaker 2: Not doing that.
- 1:31:02Speaker 10: And then, so we had signed a deal with like a,
- 1:31:06Speaker 10: it was a Trey Wingo and me, and it was
- 1:31:08Speaker 10: called like chasing it podcast. And I'm like, okay, it
- 1:31:11Speaker 10: was just like takes. And then I'd signed back for
- 1:31:13Speaker 10: NFL network on Fridays on total access before it got
- 1:31:16Speaker 10: taken away. But I had always found like, I'm like,
- 1:31:21Speaker 10: I think there's a place in the market for something
- 1:31:26Speaker 10: like a quarterback room Sunday after the game, Monday after
- 1:31:29Speaker 10: the game. But I'm like, how the hell do I
- 1:31:31Speaker 10: do it? And I was like, it's gotta be film.
- 1:31:34Speaker 10: I tried like a podcast. I think I had, here's
- 1:31:36Speaker 10: the latest one with Mendoza. I tried to do a, um,
- 1:31:41Speaker 10: like a show. I was like the Chase Daniel show.
- 1:31:43Speaker 10: I was like, everyone's trying to be like, Pat, are
- 1:31:44Speaker 10: you guys? I'm like, oh, let's put Chase Daniel show.
- 1:31:46Speaker 2: On it and do it.
- 1:31:47Speaker 10: And I had a YouTube guy who probably made it
- 1:31:51Speaker 10: so easy because he was like Mr. Beast is right
- 1:31:53Speaker 10: hand guy. So like, I mean, as you guys know,
- 1:31:56Speaker 10: like YouTube's all about thumbnail and all about title. Like
- 1:31:59Speaker 10: it's 90% that how you package it. And so I
- 1:32:02Speaker 10: did an interview with Jason McCourty, had him on and
- 1:32:05Speaker 10: it did like a thousand views.
- 1:32:07Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, this sort of sucks.
- 1:32:09Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:32:10Speaker 10: Like I spent so much time and effort and like
- 1:32:14Speaker 10: filming and it got a thousand views.
- 1:32:17Speaker 2: I'm like, what the hell? So then I, people would
- 1:32:20Speaker 2: kill for a thousand.
- 1:32:20Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:32:21Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying.
- 1:32:22Speaker 10: But like, you know, like we're always, we're like, we're yeah.
- 1:32:26Speaker 10: And so then like, I have this like, okay, well,
- 1:32:29Speaker 10: what about me breaking down film? I'm like, okay, well, cool.
- 1:32:31Speaker 10: I'm like, I have an app that can do that.
- 1:32:34Speaker 10: I have a film that can do that. How the
- 1:32:36Speaker 10: hell do I draw on?
- 1:32:38Speaker 2: Film.
- 1:32:39Speaker 10: Like, how the hell do I tell a straight? Because like,
- 1:32:41Speaker 10: you can't just do that. And then there's, you need
- 1:32:43Speaker 10: to be able to tell a straight and draw on it.
- 1:32:46Speaker 10: And so I was literally the worst three weeks of
- 1:32:49Speaker 10: my life because I had, I would, I was retired.
- 1:32:51Speaker 10: It was like, uh, August and before football, I sit
- 1:32:56Speaker 10: and sat in my office for three weeks straight. I'm
- 1:33:00Speaker 10: talking like 10 hours a day, trying everything on how
- 1:33:04Speaker 10: to figure out how to get this video on a
- 1:33:09Speaker 10: recordable device and how can I then stream it and
- 1:33:12Speaker 10: draw on it? And bro, I tried everything. I was
- 1:33:15Speaker 10: about to give up seriously. I'm like, okay, maybe, you know,
- 1:33:19Speaker 10: and I didn't want to hire anyone. Cause I'm like, ah,
- 1:33:20Speaker 10: I'm just going to figure it out, man. Yeah. I'm like,
- 1:33:23Speaker 10: I'm just going to teach myself. And when I literally
- 1:33:26Speaker 10: like the last day before I was like, I did something,
- 1:33:30Speaker 10: I don't want to give away all the secrets, but
- 1:33:31Speaker 10: I did something. I plugged something in and like, it
- 1:33:33Speaker 10: showed up on my computer screen. I was like, Oh, Like,
- 1:33:36Speaker 10: oh my God.
- 1:33:37Speaker 2: HDMI.
- 1:33:38Speaker 10: I'm like, yeah, it was like, it was literally like that.
- 1:33:44Speaker 10: But like, but like without giving away too much, it's
- 1:33:47Speaker 10: not just an HDMI. It's like, you know, it's all right.
- 1:33:50Speaker 2: HDMI plus a couple clicks. I don't know.
- 1:33:53Speaker 10: And, and then, so I'm like, okay, I'm like, I
- 1:33:55Speaker 10: got it up on the computer grants. one of my
- 1:33:59Speaker 10: producers now he's like laughing it's like so easy he's
- 1:34:01Speaker 10: like i got to know this in two minutes i'm
- 1:34:02Speaker 10: like i didn't.
- 1:34:03Speaker 5: Know you back then you see all the tech guys
- 1:34:05Speaker 5: are probably like buddy this yeah.
- 1:34:07Speaker 10: So then so then i i do it and i
- 1:34:09Speaker 10: get it up and i'm like okay okay but then
- 1:34:12Speaker 10: how do i get it from my computer screen to
- 1:34:16Speaker 10: a file on my desktop to then upload to youtube
- 1:34:19Speaker 10: i'm just teaching myself i got no idea I'm like, okay, well,
- 1:34:22Speaker 10: I got to screen record this. I'm like, well, where
- 1:34:23Speaker 10: do I screen record? And then one thing leads to another.
- 1:34:26Speaker 10: I do a whole like test episode, no audio.
- 1:34:30Speaker 2: No audio. Sickening.
- 1:34:32Speaker 10: I think I'm, it was like a 30 minute episode.
- 1:34:34Speaker 10: It was sick too. It was about Justin.
- 1:34:36Speaker 2: I'm like, oh my God.
- 1:34:38Speaker 10: I like stop, throw it away. I start again. One
- 1:34:43Speaker 10: thing led to another. Anyway, I taught myself how to
- 1:34:44Speaker 10: do it. And I'm like, I think this will be cool. Like,
- 1:34:47Speaker 10: there's nothing else really like it. And so I'm, well,
- 1:34:51Speaker 10: we'll test it. We get a thumbnail. It's like a
- 1:34:54Speaker 10: classic thumbnail of like the screen with some marks. And
- 1:34:57Speaker 10: it's me at a telestrator from NFL Network Days, like pointing.
- 1:35:00Speaker 2: Oh, that's sick.
- 1:35:01Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:35:02Speaker 2: And he's like, you know. What about a title?
- 1:35:05Speaker 10: Anyway, we post the first, it was like, I'm pretty
- 1:35:08Speaker 10: sure the first ever one was, you can go to oldest.
- 1:35:12Speaker 10: Justin Fields is not the problem. Sort of sick title.
- 1:35:16Speaker 10: I'm like, Oh, this is dope. It was when Justin
- 1:35:18Speaker 10: Fields was with the bears and it was against the chiefs.
- 1:35:20Speaker 10: Those are chase chats.
- 1:35:22Speaker 2: All right. See Jason McCourty. And then, okay.
- 1:35:26Speaker 7: Yep.
- 1:35:27Speaker 10: Justin Fields is not the problem. The one to the
- 1:35:29Speaker 10: right of that, bro. When I posted it, um, within
- 1:35:35Speaker 10: an hour it had a thousand views i'm like sick
- 1:35:38Speaker 10: yeah this is sweet go to bed a hundred thousand
- 1:35:41Speaker 10: views the next day i'm like holy cow and my
- 1:35:45Speaker 10: guy's like i was like is that good my guy's
- 1:35:46Speaker 10: like you don't understand people have youtube channels forever just
- 1:35:49Speaker 10: like dream of a hundred thousand views i'm like in
- 1:35:53Speaker 10: totality and he's like and he was like he was
- 1:35:55Speaker 10: the one he's like this is your niche. This is
- 1:35:58Speaker 10: what you're doing. This is how you're doing it. And
- 1:36:00Speaker 10: so dude, after that, like, it's even like, look how
- 1:36:03Speaker 10: blurry it is. Like it was so bad.
- 1:36:05Speaker 5: People love all the nuance that happened in football.
- 1:36:08Speaker 2: And you got the iPad markers on the side too. Yeah.
- 1:36:11Speaker 10: I'm like, that was so sloppy. So we just continued
- 1:36:14Speaker 10: doing it. And it finally like hit a, and then
- 1:36:17Speaker 10: I didn't even have a title, right? I had like
- 1:36:18Speaker 10: my name first, like Chase Daniel quarterback, like this, like,
- 1:36:21Speaker 10: what are we doing?
- 1:36:21Speaker 4: Rookie stuff.
- 1:36:22Speaker 10: But anyway, I just say that because that's the genesis
- 1:36:25Speaker 10: of it. And I'm like, dude, there's nothing really like
- 1:36:28Speaker 10: that on the internet. And we package it in a way.
- 1:36:31Speaker 10: And so we put it in sort of a box
- 1:36:35Speaker 10: and then it just kept growing, man. And now you're
- 1:36:38Speaker 10: seeing my face. Now there's more interaction. Now there's more stuff.
- 1:36:41Speaker 10: And it's just been such... I feel like this is
- 1:36:45Speaker 10: probably the thing that I'm most proud of because... it's
- 1:36:49Speaker 10: not hot take opinion. It's literally, I try to bring
- 1:36:52Speaker 10: you into the quarterback room and I try to tell
- 1:36:54Speaker 10: you and for you to understand like what is happening
- 1:36:58Speaker 10: from a quarterback's mindset. So I might spend three minutes
- 1:37:02Speaker 10: on a stick individual play. That's three 22 where the
- 1:37:05Speaker 10: left tackle is cutting. And I'm just trying to figure
- 1:37:07Speaker 10: out like explaining them. And so the process has been
- 1:37:10Speaker 10: really cool. I mean, it's grown. Like we did a,
- 1:37:13Speaker 10: it's just crazy. Like I think when I started the channel,
- 1:37:16Speaker 10: I had, like a thousand subs. Cause it was like
- 1:37:19Speaker 10: an old channel. And now we're like at 156. And
- 1:37:21Speaker 10: it's just, it's like.
- 1:37:24Speaker 2: It's black.
- 1:37:25Speaker 10: It's grown.
- 1:37:25Speaker 2: We got the plaque was nice.
- 1:37:26Speaker 10: The plaque was nice. But like, like I would say
- 1:37:29Speaker 10: six months ago we were at 85. And so it's
- 1:37:32Speaker 10: like almost doubled in six months. And what's cool about
- 1:37:36Speaker 10: it is I, it's not like, it's not like hot take,
- 1:37:40Speaker 10: but we did the Shador one last night. Um, and it's,
- 1:37:45Speaker 10: Me and Grant were talking about it. This is probably
- 1:37:47Speaker 10: the best one we've done is we try to hit
- 1:37:50Speaker 10: the hot button topics, right? And if you hit it
- 1:37:53Speaker 10: at the right time, like we had a hundred thousand
- 1:37:56Speaker 10: views on this in five hours last night. And it's
- 1:38:00Speaker 10: hard to sort of imagine. I'm just thinking about the
- 1:38:03Speaker 10: biggest stadium in the NFL in one hour, just watching
- 1:38:08Speaker 10: the YouTube. And so it's like, that's really cool. And
- 1:38:12Speaker 10: so I just think it's growing. There's so much more.
- 1:38:15Speaker 10: And then you have the whole thing like, okay, how
- 1:38:17Speaker 10: do you take a 20 minute long YouTube video, but
- 1:38:21Speaker 10: then how do you make it into short form? How
- 1:38:24Speaker 10: do you make it into that? And I think that's
- 1:38:25Speaker 10: where Producer Grant has helped so much. Like, oh, well then- our,
- 1:38:30Speaker 10: our Instagram, we were at 80,000, uh, followers on Instagram.
- 1:38:35Speaker 10: Now we're at 160, like six months ago. And so
- 1:38:38Speaker 10: I think that's sort of taken off. So now we're
- 1:38:39Speaker 10: at a place where it's like in a really good spot,
- 1:38:41Speaker 10: but this is just like, and I think guys like
- 1:38:44Speaker 10: it's so much different than TV because I'm not yelling.
- 1:38:47Speaker 10: I mean, I don't yell a lot on TV anyway.
- 1:38:48Speaker 10: It's just, It's pure ball.
- 1:38:50Speaker 2: Yeah, you have a lot of time to articulate your thoughts.
- 1:38:53Speaker 2: It's pure ball.
- 1:38:53Speaker 10: And it's been really, really cool to be able to
- 1:38:55Speaker 10: see that through.
- 1:38:55Speaker 2: Because the thing that's like.
- 1:38:56Speaker 5: Would take off and like I would gravitate towards like
- 1:38:58Speaker 5: when Baldy would do his breakdowns with.
- 1:39:00Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:39:01Speaker 5: Pass rushers.
- 1:39:01Speaker 2: Yeah. Guys in the trenches. He did a great one
- 1:39:03Speaker 2: with Reuben Bain. Yeah.
- 1:39:05Speaker 5: That was sick. That was a sick one. And before,
- 1:39:08Speaker 5: it's like Orlowski, when he used to be able to
- 1:39:10Speaker 5: use the footage, when he'd break down quarterback play, but
- 1:39:13Speaker 5: just using his finger and kind of showing people the
- 1:39:15Speaker 5: inside of how he watches tape. And I'd sit there
- 1:39:17Speaker 5: and be fascinated by it because you feel like you're
- 1:39:20Speaker 5: getting to learn the quarterback position versus thinking Justin Fields
- 1:39:23Speaker 5: is bad or Caleb's bad. You're just getting to watch
- 1:39:26Speaker 5: him break it all down from a quarterback perspective, you
- 1:39:29Speaker 5: being able to do that. and use the footage and
- 1:39:31Speaker 5: have it as a YouTube channel. I think people like
- 1:39:33Speaker 5: gravitate towards that because there's not a lot out there.
- 1:39:36Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:39:36Speaker 10: And it's been, it's been fun because it is like,
- 1:39:39Speaker 10: you know, it's one of those things now where it's
- 1:39:42Speaker 10: growing to be like, that's like, I got, I got
- 1:39:45Speaker 10: funny story on the plane. We're flying here from San
- 1:39:49Speaker 10: Diego last night. And, um, we're sitting, I'm sitting on
- 1:39:52Speaker 10: the window to, uh, people are sitting next to me, obviously. And,
- 1:39:57Speaker 10: I'm looking over, like the internet sucked on the flight.
- 1:40:00Speaker 10: I'm like, I'm trying to get some work done, like whatever,
- 1:40:02Speaker 10: can't do it. And I look over, I'm sitting on
- 1:40:04Speaker 10: the window, I look over and there's, swear, there's the
- 1:40:07Speaker 10: guy on an aisle and his wife and his guy
- 1:40:10Speaker 10: is watching my Shador Sanders YouTube breakdown.
- 1:40:13Speaker 5: Hell yeah. And I'm like, let me know if there's
- 1:40:16Speaker 5: going to be the guy.
- 1:40:16Speaker 2: Two things that cross your mind, like that's badass and
- 1:40:18Speaker 2: also how does he get such good Wi-Fi when there's
- 1:40:20Speaker 2: two things going on? He downloaded it for me. Do
- 1:40:22Speaker 2: you mind getting off that? He downloaded it for me.
- 1:40:25Speaker 2: I'm like, oh. But, And so.
- 1:40:30Speaker 10: When we land, he's like, Hey, I don't want to
- 1:40:31Speaker 10: bother you, but like huge, like I'm a huge Justin
- 1:40:33Speaker 10: Herbert fan. Like what you're watching. He's like, broad is
- 1:40:38Speaker 10: like your stuff. I'm like, that's really cool to like, see,
- 1:40:41Speaker 10: I say that because I, I would get noticed more
- 1:40:45Speaker 10: now for the quarterback breakdowns than even being on, I
- 1:40:49Speaker 10: was on 250 shows on FS one and NFL live
- 1:40:52Speaker 10: and college football. And so people like, it's the quarterback
- 1:40:55Speaker 10: breakdowns that they love. And so it's interesting because I
- 1:40:58Speaker 10: couldn't quite wrap my head around like this digital media stuff.
- 1:41:00Speaker 10: Like I just don't understand it when reality has so
- 1:41:03Speaker 10: much more reach because it's just, you're constantly uploading, you're
- 1:41:06Speaker 10: constantly doing that. So that was, that was a really
- 1:41:09Speaker 10: cool moment. I mean, that was probably one of the
- 1:41:11Speaker 10: first moments I had seen like in the wild, like
- 1:41:13Speaker 10: somebody like watching.
- 1:41:15Speaker 2: What was it like for you the first time someone
- 1:41:17Speaker 2: came up to you and recognize you for a quarterback
- 1:41:19Speaker 2: breakdown as opposed to being an NFL football player?
- 1:41:22Speaker 10: Yeah, I would say that there's a ton of the
- 1:41:25Speaker 10: fan base that is the craziest for sure is the
- 1:41:29Speaker 10: Chicago Bears fan base. Played in Chicago for two years.
- 1:41:32Speaker 10: We love Chicago. We probably would have retired Chicago, went
- 1:41:34Speaker 10: to Missouri. Chicago is really close to Missouri. So there's
- 1:41:36Speaker 10: a lot of Mizzou based fans there. But I covered
- 1:41:39Speaker 10: extensively Justin Fields and Caleb Williams. And so when we
- 1:41:43Speaker 10: were at we were at in Chicago for Christmas this
- 1:41:48Speaker 10: past year. And there was like three or four or
- 1:41:51Speaker 10: five people in one day that'd be like, Hey.
- 1:41:54Speaker 2: Like what's going on?
- 1:41:55Speaker 10: And they don't really say anything at first, but like,
- 1:41:57Speaker 10: I'm like, I'm just thinking like, because I played at
- 1:41:59Speaker 10: Mizzou and because we were really good at Mizzou, it's
- 1:42:01Speaker 10: just like auto that.
- 1:42:03Speaker 2: Right.
- 1:42:04Speaker 10: And every single one of them said, I love your
- 1:42:06Speaker 10: Caleb William breakdown. Like I, I watched that religiously.
- 1:42:09Speaker 2: I'm like, really?
- 1:42:10Speaker 10: And it's, it's a cool feeling because it's, I mean,
- 1:42:13Speaker 10: as you guys know, you built this from the ground up,
- 1:42:15Speaker 10: there was no one else that built this. to start
- 1:42:17Speaker 10: than you guys. And so for us, for me, it
- 1:42:20Speaker 10: was like that sort of feeling to be like, oh man,
- 1:42:24Speaker 10: this is really cool because it is like, I'm not condescending.
- 1:42:27Speaker 10: There's some people out there that can be, I'm not smug.
- 1:42:29Speaker 2: I'm not any of this.
- 1:42:30Speaker 10: I try to just break it in a way. And
- 1:42:32Speaker 10: every single one of them to this day are just like,
- 1:42:35Speaker 10: I just like how you just talk and you break
- 1:42:36Speaker 10: it down. Like my mother-in-law can understand it. And so
- 1:42:38Speaker 10: I think that's, that, that was really cool. That's probably
- 1:42:42Speaker 10: when I felt like maybe a year or two ago,
- 1:42:44Speaker 10: like the reach on that is, is massive. And just
- 1:42:47Speaker 10: like what YouTube can be and where everything in the
- 1:42:51Speaker 10: space is going to, because you can pull out your
- 1:42:53Speaker 10: phone now and just be like, okay, like you don't
- 1:42:56Speaker 10: have to be a, you know, anything else. Like you
- 1:43:00Speaker 10: can watch it on your TV at home. Like our
- 1:43:02Speaker 10: watch percentage is, which I think was really crazy. I
- 1:43:05Speaker 10: felt like everyone just pulled out their iPad or their phone,
- 1:43:08Speaker 10: but you can see that like our watch, 50% of
- 1:43:10Speaker 10: our watch on the channel is on a TV. So
- 1:43:15Speaker 10: that means, and that means a lot to me because
- 1:43:16Speaker 10: that means at home, someone's sitting on their couch or
- 1:43:19Speaker 10: throwing it up on the TV on a big screen
- 1:43:20Speaker 10: and watching my quarterback breakdown. Like that's, I'm like, I
- 1:43:23Speaker 10: can't fathom that. Like I personally wouldn't do that.
- 1:43:25Speaker 2: Like that's not- I wouldn't watch me.
- 1:43:27Speaker 10: No, like I wouldn't, but I think that's just like,
- 1:43:31Speaker 10: I think it's also- A bigger thing because audiences, I
- 1:43:36Speaker 10: think now are wanting to learn more about the game.
- 1:43:40Speaker 10: And what's crazy is whether it's the betting audience, whether
- 1:43:43Speaker 10: it's the fanning fantasy audience, whether it's, they want to
- 1:43:45Speaker 10: be smarter. whether it's one, and I didn't understand, I
- 1:43:48Speaker 10: understood none of that. I'm like, this just looks cool.
- 1:43:50Speaker 10: Let's just do it and see how it does. But
- 1:43:52Speaker 10: I think once you start understanding your audience and why
- 1:43:54Speaker 10: they watch, like we get a lot of fantasy and
- 1:43:56Speaker 10: a lot of betting because people are like, how can
- 1:43:58Speaker 10: I get an up, like upside?
- 1:44:00Speaker 2: What's the, what's the one stat that you're going to
- 1:44:02Speaker 2: give me to be like, all right, I'm going with
- 1:44:04Speaker 2: the bears for sure. Or I'm not going with, there's
- 1:44:06Speaker 2: no doubt. And I gained this one on plus.
- 1:44:08Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:44:08Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:44:09Speaker 10: And so that, that's really cool. I mean, it's just, it's,
- 1:44:11Speaker 10: it's taken on a life of its own. Um, It's
- 1:44:14Speaker 10: probably like the most, like it's, you guys are obviously
- 1:44:18Speaker 10: really proud of it. It's probably like the most proud
- 1:44:20Speaker 10: I am of like, because, you know, even like being
- 1:44:22Speaker 10: on TV is like a big deal. Not a lot
- 1:44:23Speaker 10: of people get a chance to do that and stuff.
- 1:44:25Speaker 10: Not a lot of people get to call games. SEC Nation,
- 1:44:27Speaker 10: I think I'm more proud of this than anything else.
- 1:44:29Speaker 2: Because you built it yourself. Like there's something like when
- 1:44:31Speaker 2: you're a young cat and you're playing football for the
- 1:44:34Speaker 2: first time, you're like, I'm going to be really sick
- 1:44:36Speaker 2: to make it to the NFL. And then you realize
- 1:44:37Speaker 2: those dreams. And it's like your whole life, you've been
- 1:44:40Speaker 2: hopefully a football player and you've achieved those things. And
- 1:44:43Speaker 2: then to get out of football and be successful in
- 1:44:45Speaker 2: something else, it just feels like different. Like, okay, maybe
- 1:44:48Speaker 2: I have a little more in my bag than I
- 1:44:49Speaker 2: even thought I did as a young cat. Oh, I
- 1:44:52Speaker 2: could actually go out there and there's other things I
- 1:44:54Speaker 2: can be good at. It's a special feeling. You brought
- 1:44:57Speaker 2: up Mizzou though. How are the boys going to be
- 1:44:59Speaker 2: this year? Are you following them at all?
- 1:45:00Speaker 10: Dude, not six and six. The freaking, we were at
- 1:45:03Speaker 10: Pate's yesterday and he's doing the SEC record show or
- 1:45:07Speaker 10: like he's like predictions. We get to, like, he's like
- 1:45:11Speaker 10: Auburn 7-6.
- 1:45:12Speaker 2: I like Auburn being sneaky this year.
- 1:45:16Speaker 6: Dude.
- 1:45:16Speaker 5: Auburn?
- 1:45:17Speaker 2: Florida?
- 1:45:18Speaker 10: SEC Nation going to Auburn-Baylor. First week in Atlanta. Huge
- 1:45:23Speaker 10: Byron Brown fan.
- 1:45:25Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. Like, huge fan.
- 1:45:26Speaker 10: I think they're going to sneaky, sneaky go. They're bringing
- 1:45:29Speaker 10: over that whole USF team.
- 1:45:31Speaker 5: But how are you seeing the SEC unfold? Because as
- 1:45:35Speaker 5: much as we want to fantasize or romanticize about a
- 1:45:38Speaker 5: lot of these teams, like, People are going to be
- 1:45:40Speaker 5: walking away with six lost seasons, five lost seasons.
- 1:45:42Speaker 10: Yeah, so that's a great call. So that gets back
- 1:45:44Speaker 10: to the nine-game schedule. It is hurting the SEC so
- 1:45:51Speaker 10: much more than it's helping because the playoff hasn't expanded.
- 1:45:55Speaker 10: Big 10 guy, you can't get on.
- 1:45:56Speaker 2: No, no, no. What's hurting the SEC is the playing
- 1:45:59Speaker 2: field's been leveled with players.
- 1:46:00Speaker 10: But I'm saying it hurts it even more now that
- 1:46:03Speaker 10: you're going to have half the league's going to have
- 1:46:05Speaker 10: an extra loss. You saw a 9-3 Vandy team and
- 1:46:09Speaker 10: 9-3 Texas team get left out of the playoffs. Playoffs
- 1:46:12Speaker 10: still have 12 teams, right? Is it 12?
- 1:46:14Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:46:15Speaker 2: It's 12. Sankey did it for.
- 1:46:16Speaker 5: We got to let the G5 in.
- 1:46:19Speaker 10: Yeah. Sankey did it for 16. Sankey did it for
- 1:46:22Speaker 10: 16 or 24. Well, it just hurts. It hurts the team.
- 1:46:25Speaker 10: I think, look, my whole thing is there's going to
- 1:46:31Speaker 10: be a time where... if you are a Texas or
- 1:46:36Speaker 10: you are, you just have to eliminate any of these
- 1:46:40Speaker 10: hard early game schedules. Like Texas, if Texas lose Ohio state,
- 1:46:44Speaker 10: they have the hardest schedule in the country. If they
- 1:46:46Speaker 10: go three losses with that team, they're probably not getting
- 1:46:50Speaker 10: in again. And so I think that just overall in general,
- 1:46:54Speaker 10: it definitely leveled the playing field, but like to me,
- 1:46:58Speaker 10: When you asked about how do you see the SEC unfolding,
- 1:47:00Speaker 10: that'll hurt the league in general. We're trying to get
- 1:47:03Speaker 10: five teams in, maybe six. That's just not going to happen.
- 1:47:06Speaker 10: The Big Ten, the top. Here's my take. The SEC,
- 1:47:11Speaker 10: middle of the road, is way better than the Big Ten.
- 1:47:14Speaker 2: Way better? Way better.
- 1:47:16Speaker 10: Middle of the road pack. You guys have Ohio State, Indiana,
- 1:47:21Speaker 10: and who else?
- 1:47:22Speaker 2: Oregon. Well, there's also USC. Okay. So middle of the pack.
- 1:47:27Speaker 2: Let's end it there. Okay.
- 1:47:29Speaker 10: Those three right now, I would say are top tier.
- 1:47:32Speaker 2: Yeah. No doubt.
- 1:47:33Speaker 10: But I would say like, if you look at, yeah,
- 1:47:36Speaker 10: here it is. If you look at in general, like
- 1:47:39Speaker 10: an Auburn can be sneaky good. Like pull up the SEC. Texas, obviously.
- 1:47:45Speaker 3: Georgia.
- 1:47:46Speaker 10: I think Alabama with Keelan Russell is going to be
- 1:47:49Speaker 10: a lot better if they can figure out how to
- 1:47:51Speaker 10: run the freaking ball. But even in Oklahoma, if you
- 1:47:55Speaker 10: just take the top six teams of the SEC in general,
- 1:47:59Speaker 10: top seven, I think it's a much deeper league overall
- 1:48:03Speaker 10: than the Big Ten. But the Big Ten's at the
- 1:48:05Speaker 10: top because you all have won three straight. And so
- 1:48:07Speaker 10: in general, the league is more difficult. I mean, you're
- 1:48:10Speaker 10: playing cupcakes like Purdue and stuff like that in Nebraska
- 1:48:14Speaker 10: and like Michigan and like all these guys.
- 1:48:17Speaker 4: There he goes.
- 1:48:18Speaker 2: I was good until I got to three.
- 1:48:19Speaker 7: Whoa.
- 1:48:20Speaker 2: Going on there?
- 1:48:20Speaker 10: But even like Ole Miss, dude. Like Ole Miss isn't
- 1:48:23Speaker 10: talked about enough.
- 1:48:23Speaker 2: Ole Miss is going to be nasty this year.
- 1:48:25Speaker 10: I think Ole Miss is going to be great. But
- 1:48:26Speaker 10: if you just like, I would say the top tier teams,
- 1:48:30Speaker 10: for sure the Big Ten. There's no doubt in my mind.
- 1:48:34Speaker 10: But if you go through just in general, and that's
- 1:48:36Speaker 10: a fair take I think is like, One through eight.
- 1:48:39Speaker 10: Like you take an Alabama, you take a Georgia for sure,
- 1:48:43Speaker 10: an LSU, an Oklahoma, an Ole Miss, and a Texas.
- 1:48:48Speaker 2: How many is that? Seven? Yeah.
- 1:48:49Speaker 10: Like just in general deeper. That's the problem with the
- 1:48:53Speaker 10: SEC though. They've leveled the playing field and they can't,
- 1:48:56Speaker 10: like if they don't win a national championship this year,
- 1:48:59Speaker 10: like four years in a row, it's going to be wild.
- 1:49:03Speaker 2: It's going to be wild, but it's also one of
- 1:49:05Speaker 2: the toughest years for the SEC to plant that flag up.
- 1:49:07Speaker 2: We don't win it this year than X, Y, and
- 1:49:09Speaker 2: Z because the top of the Big Ten, and yeah,
- 1:49:12Speaker 2: I went to Michigan. I'm a Big Ten guy, but
- 1:49:14Speaker 2: I also am willing to recognize how much talent is
- 1:49:18Speaker 2: on LSU, on Texas. Those to me are the top
- 1:49:22Speaker 2: five best rosters, those two teams right there, but Oregon
- 1:49:25Speaker 2: has the best roster in college football. Indiana just won one.
- 1:49:29Speaker 2: Oregon better than Texas. I think Oregon's better than Texas. Yeah,
- 1:49:32Speaker 2: I think it's close.
- 1:49:33Speaker 10: Even with the three transfers they brought in.
- 1:49:34Speaker 2: I think LSU's up there as well.
- 1:49:35Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean, LSU for sure.
- 1:49:36Speaker 2: I think LSU's up there. I think Texas. The thing
- 1:49:38Speaker 2: about Texas that I like a lot is every question
- 1:49:40Speaker 2: mark they had. Fixed. They fixed it through the transfer portal.
- 1:49:43Speaker 10: Hollywood Smothers, Relique Brown, Cam Coleman.
- 1:49:46Speaker 2: Yeah, and those two running backs you just brought up.
- 1:49:48Speaker 10: The linebacker from Pitt, Rasheem Biles.
- 1:49:50Speaker 2: Which is... And then you have Collins, who was there
- 1:49:53Speaker 2: last year, who was probably a top three defensive player.
- 1:49:55Speaker 2: Biles was a top five defensive player in all of
- 1:49:57Speaker 2: college football. Cam Coleman... Yeah, yeah. Colin Simmons. Colin Simmons. Yeah,
- 1:50:01Speaker 2: I was going to say him. Colin Simmons. But like
- 1:50:05Speaker 2: Cam Coleman is a guy that kind of got lost
- 1:50:07Speaker 2: in the sauce with Auburn because he had a Rolodex
- 1:50:09Speaker 2: of quarterbacks taking place at Auburn. Now he's in a
- 1:50:11Speaker 2: place where you can actually get him the ball. You
- 1:50:12Speaker 2: see all the highlights coming out like, At the end
- 1:50:14Speaker 2: of this year, we're going to see Cam Coleman, I believe,
- 1:50:16Speaker 2: in the same category as we're looking at Jeremiah Smith
- 1:50:19Speaker 2: and these other guys.
- 1:50:20Speaker 5: I totally agree with that.
- 1:50:20Speaker 2: I think Texas has answered all the questions they have
- 1:50:23Speaker 2: going into this year. Now it's like, is Arch going
- 1:50:25Speaker 2: to be who he thinks he's going to be? That's
- 1:50:27Speaker 2: the thing.
- 1:50:28Speaker 10: It's like with the Arch thing, specifically with Texas, I
- 1:50:32Speaker 10: called his game like week four last year. So I
- 1:50:36Speaker 10: got to sit down with him in person, and that
- 1:50:39Speaker 10: was during the struggles. I mean, you've seen one-hop and
- 1:50:42Speaker 10: flat throws before. like one hop and stick throws, like
- 1:50:45Speaker 10: just wasn't himself. And I'd got to talk to him
- 1:50:47Speaker 10: for an hour and it just sort of tell, like
- 1:50:49Speaker 10: it was weighing on him, but he wasn't overly worried.
- 1:50:52Speaker 10: He's like, I'm going to fix this. And then you
- 1:50:53Speaker 10: look at the last six games or seven games, 14 touchdowns,
- 1:50:56Speaker 10: two interceptions, a Michigan.
- 1:50:57Speaker 5: He was balling.
- 1:50:58Speaker 2: He was balling. That Michigan ball game, he balled.
- 1:51:00Speaker 10: And I think that's a turning point for him for
- 1:51:04Speaker 10: a lot of different ways, more mental than anything. understanding like, Hey,
- 1:51:07Speaker 10: I don't have to have all this pressure. It was
- 1:51:09Speaker 10: outside pressure put on me from last year, because quite honestly,
- 1:51:12Speaker 10: the expectations for arch last year, he never played a snap.
- 1:51:14Speaker 2: They were ridiculous. They were dumb.
- 1:51:16Speaker 10: Like let this guy go in and then you talk
- 1:51:17Speaker 10: to him and you meet him and you shake his hand.
- 1:51:19Speaker 10: Dude is like, looks, feels breeze, like an NFL quarterback.
- 1:51:24Speaker 2: But here's the thing.
- 1:51:24Speaker 10: You go out and you get all those guys in
- 1:51:26Speaker 10: the transfer portal. They better be freaking good because then
- 1:51:29Speaker 10: the excuses are over. Cause if he doesn't deliver this
- 1:51:32Speaker 10: year with all the guys that they have in that
- 1:51:34Speaker 10: defense and that it's going to be like, if he
- 1:51:38Speaker 10: has a good year, like he's number one overall pick.
- 1:51:39Speaker 10: Like it's not even close. Like if you look at
- 1:51:42Speaker 10: the build and the size and the arm strength and
- 1:51:45Speaker 10: he shows he can do it in an SEC school,
- 1:51:47Speaker 10: to me, it's like.
- 1:51:48Speaker 2: And a sneaky athletic.
- 1:51:49Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 1:51:50Speaker 2: I mean, how many, two touchdowns rushing? Two touchdowns, over
- 1:51:52Speaker 2: a hundred yards, I think just himself. He had like
- 1:51:53Speaker 2: a 60 bomb all by himself. Like the kids, the
- 1:51:56Speaker 2: kids are stud. And I love the fact that like,
- 1:51:59Speaker 2: look at the Heisman odds. I'm sure he's in top,
- 1:52:01Speaker 2: the top three category. Who's number one right now in
- 1:52:03Speaker 2: Heisman odds? CJ Carr is number one. Yeah, and we're
- 1:52:07Speaker 2: kind of living in this world of like, yeah, Arch Manning,
- 1:52:09Speaker 2: he's still a Manning. He still could do all the
- 1:52:11Speaker 2: things you just said. But because we're not have such
- 1:52:14Speaker 2: a microscope on him, this is when the kid just goes. Yeah,
- 1:52:17Speaker 2: I think so. I kind of like Texas or LSU
- 1:52:20Speaker 2: coming out of the SEC. Yeah, dude, Texas is similar
- 1:52:24Speaker 2: to Ohio State with me where there are some days
- 1:52:25Speaker 2: and moments where I'm like, they could lose three plus games. Yeah. Well,
- 1:52:29Speaker 2: they have the hardest schedule in the country. It could go,
- 1:52:32Speaker 2: but the thing, okay, so just going back to what
- 1:52:33Speaker 2: you said, where there's not, you have nine SEC games,
- 1:52:36Speaker 2: there's going to be teams that have an extra loss,
- 1:52:37Speaker 2: half the conference.
- 1:52:38Speaker 5: We kind of just let that conversation go.
- 1:52:39Speaker 2: Yeah, we let that conversation go.
- 1:52:40Speaker 5: Because it's like you have no respect for the tier two.
- 1:52:43Speaker 2: Type middle teams. That's not what I'm saying. That's not
- 1:52:44Speaker 2: what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. One thing you
- 1:52:46Speaker 2: brought up was- Pull up the tiers. Having like a
- 1:52:51Speaker 2: massive non-conference game early in the season is awesome for
- 1:52:55Speaker 2: college football.
- 1:52:55Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:52:56Speaker 2: And because of the playoff and the things you're bringing up,
- 1:52:59Speaker 2: those things are gonna start to leak away. And that's
- 1:53:02Speaker 2: what I hate about where we're at with college football,
- 1:53:04Speaker 2: I love the idea of seeing Michigan versus Oklahoma in
- 1:53:07Speaker 2: week two. Texas and Ohio State in week two. Seeing
- 1:53:09Speaker 2: two awesome logos that never play each other and get
- 1:53:12Speaker 2: after it. That to me is like, this is fun.
- 1:53:14Speaker 2: How great is this? We're in the second week of
- 1:53:16Speaker 2: September and we get to see this. Because the bowl
- 1:53:18Speaker 2: games now, you can throw them things out the window.
- 1:53:20Speaker 2: That's a money grab. That's what it is. Everyone cares
- 1:53:22Speaker 2: about the playoffs. So when you're seeing like these bigger
- 1:53:25Speaker 2: name programs go against each other when they had some
- 1:53:26Speaker 2: off years and they're in the Rely Quest Bowl, it's like,
- 1:53:29Speaker 2: all right, like 15 guys transferred out. The other guys
- 1:53:32Speaker 2: are getting ready for the draft. That's what I love.
- 1:53:34Speaker 2: And like, yeah, week one, you got Clemson and LSU.
- 1:53:36Speaker 2: Like how nasty is that?
- 1:53:38Speaker 10: I think you're going to see as the CFP is
- 1:53:41Speaker 10: going to continue to increase in teams. And I think
- 1:53:44Speaker 10: the 24 model to me makes absolutely no sense because
- 1:53:48Speaker 10: it does exactly what you're saying. It waters down and
- 1:53:50Speaker 10: it makes no team want to schedule any of this.
- 1:53:54Speaker 10: And it dilutes the regular season and it gets rid
- 1:53:56Speaker 10: of probably conference championship games.
- 1:53:59Speaker 2: Will had a great take about this.
- 1:54:00Speaker 5: You're going to see too, like at the end of
- 1:54:02Speaker 5: the year, especially when you have those rivalry games, like
- 1:54:04Speaker 5: if teams are in the playoff and the game doesn't matter,
- 1:54:07Speaker 5: it's not going to move them that much in seeding.
- 1:54:10Speaker 5: Guys are going to sit.
- 1:54:11Speaker 2: Yeah, they're going to rest. Yeah, the coaches will be smart.
- 1:54:14Speaker 5: Maybe not the first year, but in the future, similar
- 1:54:16Speaker 5: to the NFL, it's like, oh, it doesn't matter too
- 1:54:18Speaker 5: much if we're the seventh seed here or if we
- 1:54:20Speaker 5: end up being the ninth seed.
- 1:54:20Speaker 2: Well, you've got Auburn-Alabama.
- 1:54:22Speaker 10: Alabama's in.
- 1:54:23Speaker 5: Ohio State-Michigan. All the rivalries that take place. If guys
- 1:54:27Speaker 5: are already set in stone in the 2014 bracket, unless
- 1:54:31Speaker 5: you're vying for home field advantage— It's going to be like, oh,
- 1:54:35Speaker 5: we can be smarter this game. This game doesn't make
- 1:54:37Speaker 5: or break your season. Just like the NFL in week
- 1:54:38Speaker 5: 17 when the seeding's done.
- 1:54:39Speaker 1: Exactly.
- 1:54:40Speaker 2: I mean, there's no difference.
- 1:54:41Speaker 10: And I wonder if that's the case because I wonder
- 1:54:43Speaker 10: if you move the rivalry games up so they do matter.
- 1:54:46Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no, no.
- 1:54:47Speaker 10: But would you rather have them not matter or would
- 1:54:49Speaker 10: you rather move them up and then matter?
- 1:54:50Speaker 2: I'd rather fix a way so it does matter. Instead
- 1:54:53Speaker 2: of just being like, this is where we're headed. It's like,
- 1:54:55Speaker 2: let's just fix where we're headed. That'd be 16. Yeah,
- 1:54:58Speaker 2: for me.
- 1:54:59Speaker 10: I think 16 makes.
- 1:55:00Speaker 2: A lot of sense. I think we're good with 12
- 1:55:01Speaker 2: right now.
- 1:55:03Speaker 10: Yeah, but the two biggest leagues, the Big Ten and
- 1:55:06Speaker 10: the SEC, Big Ten wants 24, correct?
- 1:55:09Speaker 2: I think that's it. Tony Petitti. You say something big
- 1:55:12Speaker 2: here because you want to end in the... 16 makes sense.
- 1:55:15Speaker 5: I think they actually do want 24 because they actually
- 1:55:17Speaker 5: want money.
- 1:55:18Speaker 2: Yeah, the money's always the number one player.
- 1:55:20Speaker 10: Well, every conference is trying to get the most in, right?
- 1:55:22Speaker 10: More in, more money.
- 1:55:24Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 1:55:24Speaker 10: It's just such an interesting dynamic in college football with
- 1:55:28Speaker 10: Daquan Wright going back to LSU now. I mean, here's
- 1:55:32Speaker 10: my issue with just college football in general is it's
- 1:55:36Speaker 10: been long enough. At least this is my take on it.
- 1:55:38Speaker 10: It's been long enough to where it's been the wild,
- 1:55:40Speaker 10: wild West. Somebody needs to step in commissioner pay maybe, uh,
- 1:55:45Speaker 10: and figure out a way to run this. And look,
- 1:55:49Speaker 10: you can, you can slice it. And we've thought about
- 1:55:51Speaker 10: this and we've done all this stuff. You can slice
- 1:55:53Speaker 10: it so many different ways at the end of the day,
- 1:55:55Speaker 10: until there's a CBA in college sports, uh, That is,
- 1:55:59Speaker 10: this is what everyone is playing by. It'll never fix it.
- 1:56:03Speaker 10: You're going to have stuff like this. At what point
- 1:56:05Speaker 10: does the NFL jump in and lift a hand and say, hey,
- 1:56:11Speaker 10: this is enough? Because now it is affecting the NFL.
- 1:56:16Speaker 10: Now this Daquan Wright going back to LSU, it is
- 1:56:19Speaker 10: affecting the NFL. So what does the NFL put in?
- 1:56:22Speaker 10: They can change stuff pretty quickly. Like, oh, well, you
- 1:56:24Speaker 10: can't leave. And then they could do that. They could
- 1:56:28Speaker 10: put something in their CBA tomorrow that says, once you
- 1:56:31Speaker 10: get in the NFL, you can't leave and come back
- 1:56:34Speaker 10: if you go back to college. They could do that,
- 1:56:36Speaker 10: and then the conversation's over. I don't think we understand
- 1:56:39Speaker 10: how much power the NFL has over all this. They've
- 1:56:42Speaker 10: just looked the other way forever. And until they can
- 1:56:45Speaker 10: figure out a way to do it, because I'm all
- 1:56:48Speaker 10: for guys making money.
- 1:56:49Speaker 5: I love it.
- 1:56:50Speaker 10: But like some of this stuff and some of these
- 1:56:51Speaker 10: things I hear from these coaches and now high school,
- 1:56:55Speaker 10: it's just as wild to me.
- 1:56:56Speaker 5: High school's got NIL rosters.
- 1:56:58Speaker 2: It's crazy. Which is nuts. I think where the NFL
- 1:57:02Speaker 2: will fall back is, this is like from something that
- 1:57:04Speaker 2: happened in 2022, right? Where the 2022 guys were granted
- 1:57:07Speaker 2: another year of eligibility. Maybe they're just sitting back and
- 1:57:10Speaker 2: be like, this is the last year this is going
- 1:57:12Speaker 2: to happen. It's all going to kind of reset. Yeah.
- 1:57:14Speaker 2: But I agree. Like you see Brendan Soresby and that
- 1:57:16Speaker 2: stuff that went down. I do like the way Texas
- 1:57:18Speaker 2: Tech handled it because clearly it's like, he wasn't around
- 1:57:23Speaker 2: for any of the things that he did. This is
- 1:57:25Speaker 2: our guy. He's in our building. He's quote, our family now.
- 1:57:27Speaker 2: We're going to protect our family. We weren't there for that.
- 1:57:29Speaker 2: So them doing whatever they can to keep him in.
- 1:57:31Speaker 2: I'm like, I love the fact that they had us back.
- 1:57:33Speaker 2: But the Soresby thing happens after getting $ 3 million. Now
- 1:57:37Speaker 2: this right thing is taking place. He gets waived after
- 1:57:39Speaker 2: 24 hours, which we'll see. We're filming this like within
- 1:57:42Speaker 2: the 24 hours. if he goes to LSU. I said
- 1:57:46Speaker 2: it earlier, if Wright goes back to LSU, there's only
- 1:57:50Speaker 2: a finite amount of guys. You have a certain amount
- 1:57:52Speaker 2: of guys you can have in your roster. So essentially,
- 1:57:54Speaker 2: Lane Kiffin has to bring somebody to his office and
- 1:57:55Speaker 2: be like, hey, I know you went through winter conditioning,
- 1:57:58Speaker 2: spring ball, summer conditioning, and camp, but now you got
- 1:58:01Speaker 2: to go. And that's the part where it's like, I
- 1:58:03Speaker 2: get it. That kid probably wasn't going to play, but
- 1:58:06Speaker 2: he still put in the effort, time, and work and
- 1:58:08Speaker 2: was a part of all the meeting of the culture
- 1:58:10Speaker 2: and all that stuff to where this guy's earned a
- 1:58:12Speaker 2: right to be on this team. I get to be
- 1:58:16Speaker 2: a part of the process, now I'm not. I get
- 1:58:17Speaker 2: to be at LSU.
- 1:58:18Speaker 5: Yeah, but this is a performance-based business.
- 1:58:19Speaker 2: You ain't lying, brother. And I'm putting too much empathy
- 1:58:22Speaker 2: on it. But here's my thing, and if the kid sucks,
- 1:58:25Speaker 2: it's like, hey, we're in a different world. I get it,
- 1:58:27Speaker 2: I get it. You gotta make room for this guy
- 1:58:28Speaker 2: right here. Unfortunately, that's the correct take by Will.
- 1:58:30Speaker 10: No, it is, but you also have to understand, not you,
- 1:58:34Speaker 10: but just in general, is you can't have amateur status
- 1:58:37Speaker 10: and treat it like the nfl like a business treat
- 1:58:40Speaker 10: it like a business all the time or treat it
- 1:58:42Speaker 10: like amateurs all the time and the business is there's
- 1:58:45Speaker 10: set rules to play by yeah there's no set rules
- 1:58:48Speaker 10: to play by and so and so that's that's that
- 1:58:50Speaker 10: power exactly and so you got it that's why i
- 1:58:53Speaker 10: think the collective bargaining at some point needs to happen yeah.
- 1:58:57Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, that'll take Commissioner Pate getting it done.
- 1:58:59Speaker 2: It has to be, like we were talking earlier about,
- 1:59:01Speaker 2: we got to get judges and lawyers out of the game,
- 1:59:03Speaker 2: but the only way to fix the game is to
- 1:59:04Speaker 2: get more judges and lawyers involved. It's tough, dude. It
- 1:59:08Speaker 2: is exciting. It's exciting, though, because the Big Ten has
- 1:59:11Speaker 2: probably like three teams. Yeah, so let's get back to
- 1:59:13Speaker 2: this conversation. Yeah, so three teams.
- 1:59:16Speaker 5: Just bring up the Big Ten Conference. I want to
- 1:59:18Speaker 5: know who you don't respect. in the middle of the
- 1:59:20Speaker 5: road teams for the Big Ten.
- 1:59:21Speaker 2: Because, yeah, I'm willing to... Oh, right now, the Big
- 1:59:24Speaker 2: Ten is the best conference.
- 1:59:26Speaker 5: You said you don't respect them.
- 1:59:27Speaker 2: I didn't say that. I didn't say that. I didn't
- 1:59:29Speaker 2: say that. Don't put it in my mouth. Do you have, like, rankings?
- 1:59:30Speaker 2: Can you use your rankings? Because I see Illinois, and
- 1:59:32Speaker 2: it's like... So, look, Michigan. Okay, so Michigan.
- 1:59:37Speaker 3: Let's just.
- 1:59:38Speaker 2: I think USC is going to be sneaky. I do.
- 1:59:40Speaker 2: I do. I think USC is going to be dangerous
- 1:59:42Speaker 2: this year. I think they're going to be really good.
- 1:59:43Speaker 2: Let's do Michigan.
- 1:59:44Speaker 10: Like, I haven't watched enough bryce underwood yeah but it
- 1:59:48Speaker 10: seems to me like he is the key from an.
- 1:59:52Speaker 2: Outsider to the season everything this year okay he is
- 1:59:54Speaker 2: the absolute because you look around our wide receiver room
- 1:59:57Speaker 2: is better than it has been in i don't know
- 1:59:59Speaker 2: a decade yeah like we have guys like true wide
- 2:00:01Speaker 2: receiver one two and three and we have like four
- 2:00:03Speaker 2: or five guys that are like could be that three
- 2:00:05Speaker 2: could be that two that's how their schedule is an
- 2:00:08Speaker 2: absolute monster by the way everything comes down to bryce
- 2:00:12Speaker 2: underwood and his ability now the thing that i love
- 2:00:14Speaker 2: is Whittingham, like Michigan was missing structure. I love Whittingham.
- 2:00:17Speaker 2: They're missing culture, all those things. Like he's had a
- 2:00:19Speaker 2: high success rate at Utah. He comes in, brings Jason back,
- 2:00:23Speaker 2: who uses more personnel than any other coach in all
- 2:00:26Speaker 2: of college football. He's very creative with his play calling.
- 2:00:29Speaker 2: Like you watch a lot of the film.
- 2:00:30Speaker 10: You're selling me right now. I mean, the deal- You're
- 2:00:33Speaker 10: selling me.
- 2:00:33Speaker 2: It shouldn't be that hard to sell you. Well, from
- 2:00:35Speaker 2: a roster- But the schedule. Oh yeah, the schedule's nasty.
- 2:00:37Speaker 2: From the roster standpoint, like- Clearly this is a top 10,
- 2:00:40Speaker 2: top 15 roster in college football. It just is like,
- 2:00:43Speaker 2: you're not going to argue that you look at across
- 2:00:45Speaker 2: the board. D-line is going to be nasty. You had
- 2:00:47Speaker 2: three redshirt freshmen thrust into starting roles last year that
- 2:00:50Speaker 2: are now like, there's like seven or eight guys in
- 2:00:52Speaker 2: the offensive line that can play.
- 2:00:54Speaker 10: What was your biggest last year? Like as a, as a,
- 2:00:57Speaker 10: as a team, like your biggest issue, you think.
- 2:01:00Speaker 2: Quarterback play was not good. It wasn't good. but I'm
- 2:01:04Speaker 2: not putting that on Bryce as much as I'm putting
- 2:01:06Speaker 2: on the old coaching staff. Like there was not a
- 2:01:07Speaker 2: quarterback coach. Could you imagine like not having a quarterback
- 2:01:10Speaker 2: coach during the season, but this is, we're going to
- 2:01:12Speaker 2: work in college. It's, it's insane. The creativity was, Hey,
- 2:01:16Speaker 2: we're going to run it up between the tackles on
- 2:01:18Speaker 2: first and second down, hopefully the third manageable.
- 2:01:20Speaker 10: So you're feeling good about the offensive coordinator with, I
- 2:01:23Speaker 10: love Jason stays healthy.
- 2:01:24Speaker 2: I love, I love it.
- 2:01:25Speaker 10: So Ohio state, Oregon, Indiana.
- 2:01:27Speaker 2: Oh, it's more.
- 2:01:30Speaker 5: We do need a- We're sneaky.
- 2:01:32Speaker 2: I'll say this. My bad.
- 2:01:34Speaker 5: You guys aren't sneaky. The same way he just assumes-
- 2:01:39Speaker 5: like Golish at Auburn, Florida, like all these quarterbacks that
- 2:01:42Speaker 5: are in the SEC. He just assumes, he's like, he
- 2:01:45Speaker 5: just names those teams sneaky. He just thinks they're already
- 2:01:48Speaker 5: going to be good. He looks at you, he's like, man,
- 2:01:50Speaker 5: it seems like Bryce Underwood's going.
- 2:01:51Speaker 2: To be the key. The quarterback's the key to a
- 2:01:53Speaker 2: lot of it. Yeah, the quarterback's the key to a
- 2:01:54Speaker 2: lot of it.
- 2:01:55Speaker 10: I don't want to cut you off because I am
- 2:01:58Speaker 10: interested in Michigan.
- 2:01:59Speaker 2: The defense, good, better defense? Okay, so defense, defense coordinator
- 2:02:03Speaker 2: is Jay Hill. He was at BYU. Before Jay Hill
- 2:02:06Speaker 2: got to BYU, the defense was horrendous, and they were
- 2:02:08Speaker 2: calling for Kalani Shataki's head, be like, get him out
- 2:02:10Speaker 2: of here. He's no good to us. They come in
- 2:02:12Speaker 2: last year. They were a top 20, top 15 defense overall.
- 2:02:16Speaker 2: Great in the run game. They were a little, they
- 2:02:17Speaker 2: were okay in the pass game, but very creative. Like
- 2:02:20Speaker 2: a lot of defense coordinators in their college football is
- 2:02:22Speaker 2: evolving to this. You see, especially with Patricia, much more
- 2:02:25Speaker 2: creative and like not showing the coverage you're going to
- 2:02:28Speaker 2: be into defensively. having your blitzes come without the quarterback
- 2:02:31Speaker 2: knowing what's happening. So I'm very optimistic on, on our
- 2:02:36Speaker 2: defense and we got studs everywhere.
- 2:02:37Speaker 10: Here's the thing too, about like, cause I do, I
- 2:02:40Speaker 10: do like that. And I do think it's going to
- 2:02:41Speaker 10: come down. I don't, I honestly, I don't know, like
- 2:02:43Speaker 10: even remotely as much as you, I probably need to
- 2:02:45Speaker 10: do more research. I've been so, but.
- 2:02:47Speaker 2: I didn't say that. Well, you didn't know that was coming. Yeah.
- 2:02:52Speaker 10: But with Michigan, I do think that, Coaching matters so
- 2:02:57Speaker 10: much more in college than the NFL. And so having
- 2:03:01Speaker 10: a guy like Whittingham coming over from Utah and everything
- 2:03:03Speaker 10: that he has over there, I think that is good
- 2:03:06Speaker 10: for at least two or three extra wins.
- 2:03:07Speaker 2: Indiana is a perfect example of that. Indiana. Omar Cooper Jr.
- 2:03:11Speaker 2: is a first-round pick by the Jets. No doubt. Would
- 2:03:13Speaker 2: he be a first-round pick out of Indiana if Signetti
- 2:03:18Speaker 2: and the squad wasn't there?
- 2:03:19Speaker 7: No.
- 2:03:19Speaker 2: And so coaching is so important to unlock these players' potentials.
- 2:03:23Speaker 2: Potential only means you haven't done shit yet. But listen,
- 2:03:26Speaker 2: I'm high on Michigan. I'm clearly biased on Michigan.
- 2:03:29Speaker 10: What is their over-under win?
- 2:03:32Speaker 2: I think it might be seven and a half. Are
- 2:03:34Speaker 2: you just banging me over or what? I think it's
- 2:03:37Speaker 2: eight and a half. I fall back on the fandom
- 2:03:39Speaker 2: because I am so biased on Michigan. I'll know 90%
- 2:03:45Speaker 2: of what I need to know week two of the
- 2:03:47Speaker 2: college football season. Against Oklahoma. Where is it at? It's
- 2:03:50Speaker 2: at Michigan. Eight and a half.
- 2:03:51Speaker 5: Eight and a half.
- 2:03:54Speaker 2: And you've got to play Ohio State, Oregon, Indiana, Penn State, Iowa,
- 2:03:58Speaker 2: and Oklahoma. So it's six top 25 teams. Go back
- 2:04:01Speaker 2: to that. Just go back to where we were just at.
- 2:04:05Speaker 2: Ohio State, I mean, they're just monsters.
- 2:04:08Speaker 10: I don't bet against Ryan Day ever. You look at
- 2:04:10Speaker 10: this all the way down to 9, 10, 11.
- 2:04:16Speaker 2: Okay, so... Dude, he's not wrong. I'm not. Okay, so
- 2:04:20Speaker 2: is there a way we can... The way he said
- 2:04:22Speaker 2: I'm not is so funny. Go ahead.
- 2:04:26Speaker 10: Is there a way to pull up... It's going to
- 2:04:27Speaker 10: be a perfect clip, too, when the fucking Huskers go off.
- 2:04:29Speaker 10: the projected SEC order at... Because my take was like,
- 2:04:34Speaker 10: I think the Big Ten's top three.
- 2:04:36Speaker 2: Top, and you said middle of the pack.
- 2:04:38Speaker 10: I said middle of the pack, SEC is better.
- 2:04:42Speaker 2: You said way better. Okay, way better. I'll go with
- 2:04:44Speaker 2: way better. Yeah, but clearly you look at it, your bottom. Hey,
- 2:04:48Speaker 2: we also got to know who's paying his bills. That's true,
- 2:04:51Speaker 2: SEC Nation. Yeah. So clearly, we're not going to sway
- 2:04:56Speaker 2: him in this conversation. You already swayed me on Michigan.
- 2:04:59Speaker 2: I'm at Easley's.
- 2:04:59Speaker 5: I will.
- 2:05:01Speaker 2: Call a spade a spade.
- 2:05:01Speaker 3: I'm swayed.
- 2:05:02Speaker 2: Okay. I'm in. Put the pineapple in the lawn. We're
- 2:05:04Speaker 2: swaying it, boys. We could say is better than Big Ten.
- 2:05:08Speaker 3: Maybe.
- 2:05:09Speaker 2: Because in week two, we're going to get to see
- 2:05:10Speaker 2: it with Mississippi State going up to Minnesota.
- 2:05:12Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 2:05:13Speaker 2: And low-key Fleck Bank. Mississippi State.
- 2:05:15Speaker 3: Sneaky.
- 2:05:17Speaker 2: Yeah, but those are two teams. Like you would put
- 2:05:19Speaker 2: Minnesota in the same part of the Big Ten as
- 2:05:21Speaker 2: you would put Mississippi State in the same part of
- 2:05:23Speaker 2: the SEC.
- 2:05:23Speaker 9: Yes, yes.
- 2:05:23Speaker 2: So that's good to know. That's a good little thing
- 2:05:25Speaker 2: to know right there. Okay.
- 2:05:28Speaker 9: Okay.
- 2:05:29Speaker 2: We got the SEC up, but as far as, we'll
- 2:05:31Speaker 2: go back to the Big Ten. Indiana, they just won
- 2:05:34Speaker 2: a national championship. They got Hoover. Hoover. Josh Pate. They'll
- 2:05:38Speaker 2: be good again. Josh Pate's literally said, he spoke to Cignetti,
- 2:05:40Speaker 2: and Cignetti's like, we have exactly what we need there.
- 2:05:42Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 2:05:43Speaker 2: Their defense is going to be awesome. And they've shown
- 2:05:45Speaker 2: who's the number one team there, Ohio State. They showed
- 2:05:48Speaker 2: how to play against Ohio State. Like Julian Sane sacked
- 2:05:51Speaker 2: six times in his first 12 games. We're selling it
- 2:05:53Speaker 2: more on the outside. Oh, let's go to the outside.
- 2:05:55Speaker 5: It's like we all agree that the top of the Big.
- 2:05:57Speaker 2: Ten is going to be the top. I do think
- 2:05:59Speaker 2: Ohio State, Oregon, Indiana. Yeah. USC. Do you want to
- 2:06:02Speaker 2: talk about USC? I mean, you said top three. Who's
- 2:06:05Speaker 2: a QB, USC? Jordan Maiava.
- 2:06:07Speaker 4: Maiava.
- 2:06:07Speaker 2: He's going to be a stud.
- 2:06:09Speaker 4: Yep.
- 2:06:09Speaker 2: He's going to be an absolute stud.
- 2:06:10Speaker 5: He's going to be in the Heisman hunt.
- 2:06:12Speaker 2: And they're going to be able to run the ball
- 2:06:13Speaker 2: really well this year, too. They have two good running backs.
- 2:06:16Speaker 2: They have units at offensive line. A lot of guys returning.
- 2:06:20Speaker 10: When we're talking about this conversation, are we talking about
- 2:06:25Speaker 10: how many teams make the playoffs and who has more
- 2:06:28Speaker 10: teams making the playoffs. Are we talking? Cause I've already
- 2:06:30Speaker 10: said that. I think for sure the big 10 has
- 2:06:34Speaker 10: the top, spaces and i just more but like how
- 2:06:38Speaker 10: like how do you how do you settle this because
- 2:06:40Speaker 10: it's like middle is way better thing.
- 2:06:42Speaker 2: Is you settle it by national championships that's to me is.
- 2:06:45Speaker 10: Like we can't say anything.
- 2:06:48Speaker 2: Sec wins they'll be better conference in 2026 because i
- 2:06:51Speaker 2: think a lot of sec argument derives from well we
- 2:06:54Speaker 2: beat each other up during the season and what i'm
- 2:06:56Speaker 2: saying they will if you look at the big 10
- 2:06:58Speaker 2: like they're doing the same thing.
- 2:07:00Speaker 10: So All right, so if you had to just take
- 2:07:02Speaker 10: away the top three SEC teams, which we think will
- 2:07:05Speaker 10: finish in order, what do you guys think the top three?
- 2:07:07Speaker 10: Because then we'll just throw those out too. Georgia, they've
- 2:07:11Speaker 10: won nine. They've been to nine of the last 10
- 2:07:14Speaker 10: SEC championship games. Georgia's in the top three for sure.
- 2:07:16Speaker 10: I think Texas is in the top three based on
- 2:07:19Speaker 10: the roster that they've built. I think they're in the
- 2:07:22Speaker 10: top three.
- 2:07:23Speaker 2: And I would say.
- 2:07:24Speaker 10: Probably, I think Oklahoma's going to be sneaky. I think
- 2:07:28Speaker 10: LSU probably is in that. top three would you agree
- 2:07:31Speaker 10: or would you put would you rather have oklahoma oklahoma
- 2:07:35Speaker 10: or you could say lsu oklahoma or alabama which one's
- 2:07:38Speaker 10: top three out of those.
- 2:07:40Speaker 2: Lsu oklahoma alabama uh i go lsu.
- 2:07:43Speaker 10: I think i think lsu it all comes down to
- 2:07:45Speaker 10: sam levitt.
- 2:07:47Speaker 2: I think yeah but.
- 2:07:49Speaker 10: Like this is purely pre-season right now obviously pre-season but
- 2:07:52Speaker 10: i would would you say lsu i would probably put
- 2:07:54Speaker 10: lsu although oklahoma with Mateer.
- 2:07:57Speaker 2: Nice.
- 2:07:58Speaker 10: Defense best. One of the best in the country.
- 2:08:01Speaker 5: One of the bands here's here's where you're winning the
- 2:08:03Speaker 5: debate right now is we're trying to figure out who
- 2:08:06Speaker 5: the number who would be in the top three.
- 2:08:07Speaker 10: That's what i'm trying to say but like just just
- 2:08:09Speaker 10: for the.
- 2:08:10Speaker 2: It was more of the sec middle of the pack
- 2:08:13Speaker 2: is way better but hold on let's put on this
- 2:08:14Speaker 2: road with him at least okay let's let's say oklahoma
- 2:08:17Speaker 2: so let's put george we'll put georgia at one because
- 2:08:19Speaker 2: nine of the last one you never get that's kirby.
- 2:08:21Speaker 10: Smart you can never do that texas for sure.
- 2:08:24Speaker 2: Yeah texas they have the roster lsu has.
- 2:08:26Speaker 10: The roster but he's saying oklahoma.
- 2:08:28Speaker 2: Oklahoma has the wrong, it doesn't matter. Just so we
- 2:08:31Speaker 2: get to the three. Just so we get to the three,
- 2:08:32Speaker 2: it doesn't matter. No, because this is part of my argument. Georgia, LSU,
- 2:08:37Speaker 2: Texas are my top three teams in the SEC.
- 2:08:39Speaker 5: Let's go with that. Georgia, LSU, Texas.
- 2:08:42Speaker 2: And then there's Oklahoma. Okay, you got Oklahoma. Right, we'll
- 2:08:46Speaker 2: find out between, if we're putting Oklahoma at four in
- 2:08:47Speaker 2: the SEC, they're playing whoever's five.
- 2:08:50Speaker 10: So the next three would be Oklahoma, LSU, sorry, Oklahoma, Alabama,
- 2:08:56Speaker 10: Ole Miss.
- 2:08:57Speaker 2: Yeah, not in that order, but yes. No, no, no. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 2:09:00Speaker 2: That would be the next three. Right.
- 2:09:02Speaker 10: So between Oklahoma, Alabama, and Ole Miss, USC, Michigan, Penn State,
- 2:09:09Speaker 10: who are you taking? Just in terms of over and wins.
- 2:09:13Speaker 10: I think the best one- Which three teams are you taking?
- 2:09:16Speaker 2: I would take Ole Miss probably- No, no, no.
- 2:09:20Speaker 10: I'm just saying just those three of the second three.
- 2:09:24Speaker 10: Of the second three.
- 2:09:25Speaker 2: Oh, three to three. I'll take the Big Ten.
- 2:09:26Speaker 5: I'm taking- I would take the SEC because Penn State's
- 2:09:30Speaker 5: got a softer schedule.
- 2:09:31Speaker 10: You would take USC, Michigan, Penn State over Alabama, Ole Miss, Oklahoma?
- 2:09:39Speaker 10: That's what I'm trying to say.
- 2:09:40Speaker 2: Yes.
- 2:09:41Speaker 10: Okay, so maybe not way better, but I think they're better.
- 2:09:43Speaker 2: I'd still take the SEC.
- 2:09:46Speaker 5: My whole thing is, this year, the depth of the
- 2:09:50Speaker 5: Big Ten is continuing to get stronger and better. I
- 2:09:53Speaker 5: was going to clip eight or nine every year. And
- 2:09:57Speaker 5: Iowa just beat the dog shit out of Andy last year,
- 2:09:59Speaker 5: the last game of the year.
- 2:10:00Speaker 10: We're not even talking about an A & M team either.
- 2:10:02Speaker 10: They made the playoff last year and they lost four
- 2:10:04Speaker 10: of their last five. They lost four out of five O-linemen.
- 2:10:07Speaker 10: Can't bet against Mike Oco.
- 2:10:09Speaker 5: All of their losses. Anytime they played a top half
- 2:10:12Speaker 5: SEC team, they lost.
- 2:10:13Speaker 2: Made the playoff though.
- 2:10:14Speaker 5: All of their wins came.
- 2:10:15Speaker 2: All of their wins.
- 2:10:16Speaker 10: Lost four out of the last five though.
- 2:10:18Speaker 2: Who's this? Starters, sorry.
- 2:10:20Speaker 10: Lost four out of five O-line starters.
- 2:10:23Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 2:10:23Speaker 2: So struggle bus. You think Alabama's going to be sharp
- 2:10:25Speaker 2: this year?
- 2:10:26Speaker 10: Oh, it all comes down to if they can run
- 2:10:28Speaker 10: the ball. Not even there.
- 2:10:30Speaker 2: Who's the OC? Ryan Grubb. Yeah. Okay. Look at Ryan.
- 2:10:34Speaker 10: They don't run the ball even going back from Washington days.
- 2:10:37Speaker 2: When they're at Washington. 123rd in the country in rushing.
- 2:10:40Speaker 2: Then Ryan Grubb, when DeBoer goes to Alabama, where does
- 2:10:43Speaker 2: Grubb go? He goes to Seattle, right? In the NFL.
- 2:10:45Speaker 2: They had Kenneth Walker Jr. and could not run the football.
- 2:10:47Speaker 2: It's a Grubb and Kellan DeBoer problem. And then Grubb
- 2:10:50Speaker 2: goes back and they won't be able to run it.
- 2:10:51Speaker 2: No doubt. History will tell you that, hey, if Alabama
- 2:10:54Speaker 2: can run the ball, they're going to be successful. I'm
- 2:10:56Speaker 2: looking at you saying probably not going to be successful then. Russell, though,
- 2:10:59Speaker 2: this kid's an absolute stud. I think this Keelan Russell kid,
- 2:11:03Speaker 2: I think he's nasty. And that's a kid that can
- 2:11:07Speaker 2: make your run game better because.
- 2:11:08Speaker 10: Of what he plays. But if you had to say
- 2:11:10Speaker 10: an Alabama at 9-3 schedule-wise versus a Michigan at 9-3
- 2:11:19Speaker 10: in the playoffs.
- 2:11:20Speaker 2: I would look at history. Who would get in? I
- 2:11:23Speaker 2: would look at the last two we played them in.
- 2:11:25Speaker 2: If I'm looking at Alabama 9-3 versus Michigan 9-3, I
- 2:11:29Speaker 2: don't think we're going to run into that problem. There's
- 2:11:30Speaker 2: going to be enough 10-2 teams. It's really cool.
- 2:11:34Speaker 5: You're saying to make the playoff?
- 2:11:36Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 2:11:36Speaker 5: Michigan's got a hard schedule.
- 2:11:38Speaker 2: Michigan plays six top 25 teams. They play five teams
- 2:11:41Speaker 2: that are in the top 10 to start the preseason.
- 2:11:42Speaker 10: But if Alabama has an extra loss because of the
- 2:11:45Speaker 10: nine-game schedule, that's what the CFP is going to look at, though.
- 2:11:47Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. The committee. The committee. But okay,
- 2:11:49Speaker 2: Michigan's also playing Oklahoma.
- 2:11:51Speaker 5: Depends on their losses, how they lost.
- 2:11:52Speaker 2: So they have a pseudo nine games as well.
- 2:11:55Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:11:56Speaker 2: Because they're not playing four cupcakes. It's a really good argument.
- 2:11:59Speaker 2: I'm just swinging the bat. No, it makes sense. Both
- 2:12:02Speaker 2: of those brands, you see them on the outside looking in. Fans,
- 2:12:05Speaker 2: the people who make the money, they're going to want
- 2:12:07Speaker 2: to have Alabama. They're going to want to have Michigan
- 2:12:09Speaker 2: in those games.
- 2:12:10Speaker 10: I shouldn't have said middle tier because I think that's probably.
- 2:12:13Speaker 2: All you shouldn't have said is way better. No, no, no.
- 2:12:16Speaker 5: That's all you shouldn't have said.
- 2:12:17Speaker 2: No.
- 2:12:18Speaker 10: I still am fully believing. I think that the next three,
- 2:12:23Speaker 10: not the top three, the next three... I think they're
- 2:12:26Speaker 10: way better.
- 2:12:29Speaker 4: Okay.
- 2:12:29Speaker 5: Agreed to disagree.
- 2:12:33Speaker 2: Way better. He's what's missing. I've already said, I've already
- 2:12:36Speaker 2: said big 10 better spot, but we'll had a point
- 2:12:40Speaker 2: with the Penn state. Like you watch their schedule. They
- 2:12:42Speaker 2: got what USC and who else? I don't know.
- 2:12:44Speaker 7: I don't. Yeah.
- 2:12:45Speaker 2: It's not, it's not Washington. They have to go to Washington.
- 2:12:48Speaker 10: Like Tennessee starting a true freshman quarterback. They could be
- 2:12:51Speaker 10: an eight win team.
- 2:12:52Speaker 2: Like, you think it's a lock for Alabama or Ole
- 2:12:54Speaker 2: Miss to fly two to go to Washington and beat
- 2:12:57Speaker 2: the Huskies in Washington with DeMond Williams? DeMond Williams is stuck.
- 2:13:03Speaker 2: All I'm saying is it's not a layup. You're not
- 2:13:07Speaker 2: going to sit there and just be like, oh, that's
- 2:13:07Speaker 2: an easy dump.
- 2:13:08Speaker 10: No, it's not a layup, but they're winning nine out
- 2:13:11Speaker 10: of ten times.
- 2:13:12Speaker 2: Oh, well, that sounds like a layup.
- 2:13:13Speaker 5: That's at 16 Nation.
- 2:13:14Speaker 2: I can make 10 out of 10 layups. That's at
- 2:13:15Speaker 2: 16 Nation.
- 2:13:16Speaker 10: I can make 10 out of 10 layups. You can
- 2:13:19Speaker 10: make 10 out of 10 layups.
- 2:13:20Speaker 5: I don't know.
- 2:13:20Speaker 2: I've been a mess. I picked up the ball, but
- 2:13:22Speaker 2: you're probably right. I'm just saying. The meat and potatoes
- 2:13:28Speaker 2: of both these conferences are getting more and more. You
- 2:13:31Speaker 2: can look at them both and be like, okay, they're
- 2:13:33Speaker 2: getting stronger.
- 2:13:34Speaker 10: I mean, look, and honestly, we have no... I'll tell you.
- 2:13:38Speaker 2: What produced smack in Arkansas, though.
- 2:13:40Speaker 10: Yeah, I like Barry Odom. I like Barry Odom, so
- 2:13:42Speaker 10: I'm all in. Barry Odom's the man.
- 2:13:45Speaker 2: But hey, this all went back to how's Missouri going
- 2:13:47Speaker 2: to be this year? We haven't talked about Missouri once.
- 2:13:49Speaker 2: You really avoided that. No, we just kept talking. Here's
- 2:13:52Speaker 2: my thing. Mizzou, I would say, since Eli Dringwitz has
- 2:13:53Speaker 2: been there, has over.
- 2:14:02Speaker 10: Like been overly successful. Like two years ago, Ohio State win,
- 2:14:06Speaker 10: even though they weren't playing anyone, it was a huge
- 2:14:08Speaker 10: thing for us in the bowl game in the Cotton Bowl, right?
- 2:14:10Speaker 10: We finished top 10, I think. And then you look
- 2:14:13Speaker 10: at like the last three years, I think we've averaged
- 2:14:15Speaker 10: like almost 10 wins a year for Mizzou.
- 2:14:17Speaker 2: Crazy.
- 2:14:18Speaker 10: Like in the SEC, in the SEC, that is big time.
- 2:14:21Speaker 2: Yes. For us.
- 2:14:22Speaker 10: Like that just overall with the program, like we're trying
- 2:14:24Speaker 10: to get to the next level.
- 2:14:25Speaker 2: I get it.
- 2:14:26Speaker 10: Like love Eli. We're recruiting better. We're recruiting bigger names.
- 2:14:31Speaker 10: We're having like more NIL funds, like all this stuff. Um,
- 2:14:35Speaker 10: my whole thing about Mizzou is I would say like,
- 2:14:39Speaker 10: I think six and six is disrespectful. What Pete was
- 2:14:41Speaker 10: saying yesterday, but, It's all going to come down to
- 2:14:47Speaker 10: how Austin Simmons plays at quarterback. And I think that's
- 2:14:50Speaker 10: probably been our issue since Brady Cook has left. Has been,
- 2:14:54Speaker 10: can we get good quarterback play?
- 2:14:57Speaker 2: We have Ahmad Hardy.
- 2:14:57Speaker 10: He's going to miss the first game or two.
- 2:15:00Speaker 2: Got shot. Hope he recovers well. I think he'll be fine.
- 2:15:02Speaker 2: Six and six is not a bad take here.
- 2:15:04Speaker 10: Six and six?
- 2:15:05Speaker 2: I mean... Look what you got.
- 2:15:08Speaker 10: We could be 4-0. We will be 4-0 going into Florida.
- 2:15:11Speaker 10: I think we beat Mississippi State. I think it's a
- 2:15:13Speaker 10: close game. Florida's homecoming.
- 2:15:17Speaker 2: What's Missouri's... I haven't been to a game there. What's
- 2:15:19Speaker 2: the environment like? It's so sick. I mean.
- 2:15:28Speaker 2: I was going to say, I grew up there. I
- 2:15:29Speaker 2: went to a couple. I was going to say, I mean,
- 2:15:31Speaker 2: but then I saw the wink.
- 2:15:32Speaker 10: So I would say- Fun environment.
- 2:15:35Speaker 2: Fun environment.
- 2:15:36Speaker 10: So they just redid. See if you can get a
- 2:15:37Speaker 10: new picture of the North End Zone being redone.
- 2:15:40Speaker 2: Can we take two minutes? Yeah, I got to pass.

- 2:16:35Speaker 2: by Hulu Original Series, Chad Power. Get ready for the
- 2:16:38Speaker 2: all-new season when it drops on September 3rd on Hulu
- 2:16:41Speaker 2: and Hulu on Disney +. Now, I'm sure you guys
- 2:16:44Speaker 2: have already watched the first season, but in case you didn't,
- 2:16:46Speaker 2: here's a quick spoiler-free refresher. And I'm going to say
- 2:16:48Speaker 2: spoiler-free refresher one more time so Will Compton hears me.
- 2:16:52Speaker 2: We both love this show, and we love to give
- 2:16:54Speaker 2: a lot of things up. So we're going to do
- 2:16:55Speaker 2: our best to stick to the script here. Glenn Powell
- 2:16:57Speaker 2: is one of the creators of the show. He is
- 2:16:59Speaker 2: also the star as Chad Power. He's an oddball superhero.
- 2:17:03Speaker 2: superstar quarterback who walked onto a struggling South Georgia catfish
- 2:17:07Speaker 2: determined to lead the team to a college football playoffs.
- 2:17:10Speaker 2: But Chad's got a crazy secret. He's actually a disgraced quarterback,
- 2:17:14Speaker 2: Russ holiday, who quickly realized that he is keeping his identity.
- 2:17:18Speaker 2: A secret will be a lot harder than he ever
- 2:17:20Speaker 2: expected this season. The catfish is out of the bag
- 2:17:24Speaker 2: and everyone around him is growing suspicious, especially coach Hudson.
- 2:17:28Speaker 2: played by Steve Zahn. Am I saying that correctly? Steve
- 2:17:31Speaker 2: Zahn and rival quarterback Jerry, who's had it out for
- 2:17:36Speaker 2: Chad since day one. All right, with the walls closing
- 2:17:38Speaker 2: in on the season, the stakes are even higher than
- 2:17:40Speaker 2: ever to hide his truth and stay in the game.
- 2:17:43Speaker 2: And the only way that he can hope to pull
- 2:17:45Speaker 2: it off is by winning back the one coach who has,
- 2:17:47Speaker 2: who wants nothing to do with him. Watch the all
- 2:17:49Speaker 2: new series of the Hulu original series, Chad powers from
- 2:17:52Speaker 2: Glenn power and the creative Loki. When it premieres on
- 2:17:56Speaker 2: September 3rd on Hulu and who and Hulu on Disney
- 2:17:59Speaker 2: plus for bundle subscribers. All right, ladies and gentlemen, we
- 2:18:03Speaker 2: are back from a pee break. We got into, we're
- 2:18:04Speaker 2: about how long we've been recording for. An hour 20.
- 2:18:07Speaker 2: Let's go ahead and introduce our guest today. Our guest
- 2:18:11Speaker 2: was a 2007 Heisman Trophy finalist, Missouri's all-time career leader
- 2:18:15Speaker 2: in passing and passing touchdowns. He also has an incredible
- 2:18:19Speaker 2: stat here I'll give to you. This individual earned $ 4. 7
- 2:18:23Speaker 2: million for every touchdown pass he threw in the NFL.
- 2:18:28Speaker 2: Let's give it up for Chase Daniel, ladies and gentlemen.
- 2:18:31Speaker 2: That's it. And newest member of the bus with the boys.
- 2:18:38Speaker 2: Let's go, dude. Let's go.
- 2:18:40Speaker 5: Welcome to the fucking squad.
- 2:18:42Speaker 3: I know.
- 2:18:42Speaker 10: Dude, it feels good. We've been talking for an hour 20.
- 2:18:44Speaker 2: I know.
- 2:18:46Speaker 10: And I was just telling these guys off camera. I'm like,
- 2:18:50Speaker 10: I could easily see how you go three hours on
- 2:18:51Speaker 10: the bus just chilling with the boys.
- 2:18:53Speaker 2: There's so much stuff. Especially, dude, like middle of like June.
- 2:18:57Speaker 2: It's like, what are we going to talk about today?
- 2:18:59Speaker 4: What's going on?
- 2:19:00Speaker 2: Right now, when football is on the horizon, it's literally
- 2:19:02Speaker 2: within reach, it's like there's so much fun stuff to
- 2:19:05Speaker 2: talk about.
- 2:19:05Speaker 6: So great.
- 2:19:05Speaker 2: Because you can go to... We were just breaking down
- 2:19:07Speaker 2: all the SEC Big Ten, but there's two other conferences.
- 2:19:10Speaker 2: Then it's like, what's going to happen there? Even though
- 2:19:12Speaker 2: it's pretty clear what's going to happen there. Right?
- 2:19:16Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:19:16Speaker 2: It's in the Big 12, yeah.
- 2:19:20Speaker 4: Oh.
- 2:19:20Speaker 7: Oh.
- 2:19:21Speaker 4: Listen.
- 2:19:22Speaker 2: ACC is the only team that has minus odds on
- 2:19:24Speaker 2: a future to win the conference.
- 2:19:25Speaker 7: No, no, no.
- 2:19:26Speaker 5: I think Miami's... pretty much a lock no.
- 2:19:31Speaker 2: Guarantees in life but guarantee in miami is going to be.
- 2:19:33Speaker 5: But if you think of the big 12 you just
- 2:19:35Speaker 5: think of texas tech and then possibly miami's lock yeah
- 2:19:39Speaker 5: in the acc like yes miami's by far and above
- 2:19:42Speaker 5: i mean your boy i was ripping miami hurricanes hoodie
- 2:19:46Speaker 5: our little shirt down in the bahamas like i'm a
- 2:19:48Speaker 5: believer in what chris the ball has got going on
- 2:19:51Speaker 5: down there in miami but there's still a few teams
- 2:19:53Speaker 5: that you can still talk about with yep SMU, Louisville, Clemson.
- 2:19:56Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:19:57Speaker 2: What Franklin's going to do at Virginia Tech. Even Virginia.
- 2:20:00Speaker 5: A little bit.
- 2:20:02Speaker 2: A little bit.
- 2:20:02Speaker 5: Compared to the Big 12.
- 2:20:03Speaker 4: Right.
- 2:20:04Speaker 5: I'm with you on that.
- 2:20:05Speaker 2: Well, man, welcome to the team. Yeah, I appreciate it.
- 2:20:07Speaker 10: You know, I was telling you or maybe someone else when–
- 2:20:14Speaker 10: so this is sort of the origin story of it.
- 2:20:15Speaker 10: Like I reached out to you– I think I sent
- 2:20:19Speaker 10: a text to you on like February 12th.
- 2:20:23Speaker 2: Like randomly.
- 2:20:23Speaker 10: Cause I'm like, Oh, you know, we, we knew what
- 2:20:25Speaker 10: we're doing with the ESPN and you've always been super
- 2:20:30Speaker 10: helpful to me based on what you guys have built. Like, Hey,
- 2:20:33Speaker 10: this is probably like, think about this or think about that.
- 2:20:41Speaker 2: No, I know.
- 2:20:42Speaker 10: I just, it's more so like, um, when I texted you,
- 2:20:46Speaker 10: I was like, Oh, Hey, like, what's your biggest like
- 2:20:51Speaker 10: i was just like asking like hey what do you
- 2:20:53Speaker 10: think like you guys knew now that you didn't know
- 2:20:56Speaker 10: like what would you do we're getting like recruited by
- 2:20:59Speaker 10: some people for different shows like i don't know if
- 2:21:01Speaker 10: i want to make it long form i want to
- 2:21:02Speaker 10: do this and then like literally that day you called
- 2:21:05Speaker 10: me you're like why don't you just come join us
- 2:21:06Speaker 10: i was like i mean that would be sick too
- 2:21:10Speaker 10: but then you know like all the suits do their
- 2:21:11Speaker 10: suit stuff and You don't know what's going to happen,
- 2:21:14Speaker 10: but it's just it's so cool to be able to
- 2:21:16Speaker 10: to join forces with you guys, you guys, because you
- 2:21:20Speaker 10: guys have built such a behemoth here and like understand.
- 2:21:24Speaker 10: That's why I don't think a lot of people in
- 2:21:27Speaker 10: general understand about you two is just how smart you
- 2:21:32Speaker 10: are in terms of the business side. And so like
- 2:21:35Speaker 10: how to build it, how to understand it, how to
- 2:21:38Speaker 10: do this. And like, we've had multiple conversations and just,
- 2:21:42Speaker 10: it's been cool. And so now the fact that I'm
- 2:21:45Speaker 10: able to join with you guys for a multi-year deal
- 2:21:47Speaker 10: is like really, really cool.
- 2:21:49Speaker 5: You put yourself too in a unique spot because where
- 2:21:52Speaker 5: you swung and kind of hit a home run is
- 2:21:55Speaker 5: like building your own product. Like the quarterback breakdown, like
- 2:21:58Speaker 5: having your IP and like doing your own thing. Like
- 2:22:01Speaker 5: successfully going from I'm on TV, but I'm also going
- 2:22:04Speaker 5: to build this property that lives in the digital space
- 2:22:07Speaker 5: to where when you are getting recruited, you get to
- 2:22:09Speaker 5: kind of have a little bit of, you get to
- 2:22:11Speaker 5: have a little bit of say.
- 2:22:12Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:22:13Speaker 5: Because you have your show. It's like, hey, does this
- 2:22:17Speaker 5: network want this property?
- 2:22:19Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 2:22:19Speaker 5: I can negotiate this way.
- 2:22:21Speaker 2: What do you want to do?
- 2:22:21Speaker 5: Because you're also, you call games. You're on SEC Nation now.
- 2:22:25Speaker 5: Shout out to ESPN getting you on the squad there.
- 2:22:27Speaker 2: No doubt.
- 2:22:27Speaker 5: You also have your property with Quarterback Breakdown and how
- 2:22:30Speaker 5: you want to grow that channel and what you want
- 2:22:32Speaker 5: to do there. So I think you had yourself in
- 2:22:34Speaker 5: a very unique spot that kind of exists in.
- 2:22:39Speaker 2: Our realm, in our world. So when you were talking
- 2:22:41Speaker 2: about it, it's.
- 2:22:41Speaker 5: Like, hey, hold on.
- 2:22:44Speaker 10: Yeah i will say you said that like right away
- 2:22:46Speaker 10: i was like in no way was i like oh
- 2:22:48Speaker 10: let's because there was other people and you're like well
- 2:22:51Speaker 10: this makes a lot you're talking about.
- 2:22:52Speaker 5: All the things you were thinking about doing what to
- 2:22:53Speaker 5: do yeah and i'm like is your podcast deal up
- 2:22:56Speaker 5: with it was with the athletic yeah yeah i was
- 2:22:58Speaker 5: like okay so you're negotiating everything right now yeah i
- 2:23:00Speaker 5: was like just put a pause yeah yeah i was
- 2:23:02Speaker 5: like let us both figure out yeah every situation going
- 2:23:05Speaker 5: on so we're kind of i mean it just it
- 2:23:08Speaker 5: just makes sense yeah you're a football guy yeah.
- 2:23:10Speaker 2: It was like march when will came in and uh
- 2:23:12Speaker 2: we were sitting over there and a bunch of chairs
- 2:23:14Speaker 2: and kind of going over like, what do we want
- 2:23:15Speaker 2: to do? How do we want to expand bus in?
- 2:23:17Speaker 2: And Will's like, I think we should bring Chase Daniels in.
- 2:23:19Speaker 5: I was like, all right.
- 2:23:21Speaker 2: Yeah, let's do that. Can we do that? Is that
- 2:23:22Speaker 2: a thing we can do? And he's like, yeah, I
- 2:23:24Speaker 2: think we're up talking to him right now. So that
- 2:23:25Speaker 2: was perfect. Is that a thing we can do?
- 2:23:29Speaker 5: And that's the business. That's how you handle the business.
- 2:23:32Speaker 5: And then looks at Taylor. He's like, it's just Daniel.
- 2:23:35Speaker 5: Not Chase Daniels.
- 2:23:36Speaker 2: He's like, okay, I got you, I got you.
- 2:23:37Speaker 5: Which I'll do 15 more times. So that's just part
- 2:23:40Speaker 5: of the gig right there. Yeah, we had to let
- 2:23:42Speaker 5: the suits kind of operate. But you were just in
- 2:23:44Speaker 5: a good spot because you're getting recruited by all these
- 2:23:47Speaker 5: networks and you still like, your obsession and your child
- 2:23:54Speaker 5: of digital is the QB breakdown. And you're like, I
- 2:23:57Speaker 5: really want to grow and do something with this.
- 2:23:59Speaker 10: Yeah, and I think that's sort of like we talked
- 2:24:02Speaker 10: about it, but that's sort of how I think's really cool.
- 2:24:05Speaker 10: But then like, all right, the next step for me
- 2:24:09Speaker 10: in growth is like partnering with somebody that's on a
- 2:24:11Speaker 10: rocket ship. And so to be able to partner with
- 2:24:15Speaker 10: you guys to understand, Hey, all this backend help, all
- 2:24:18Speaker 10: this stuff behind the scenes that the back of the
- 2:24:21Speaker 10: bus just like crushes and the editing and the thumbnails
- 2:24:24Speaker 10: and just like all this stuff to be able to
- 2:24:26Speaker 10: do that. And then be able to interact with you
- 2:24:29Speaker 10: guys on ESPN too. I'm sure there'll be some carryover
- 2:24:31Speaker 10: on shows. I'm sure there'll be like, It just was
- 2:24:33Speaker 10: like the perfect storm that I never could have imagined
- 2:24:37Speaker 10: doing it. Because there were definitely some other people. And
- 2:24:39Speaker 10: I'm like, it just makes sense. Because it's like, now
- 2:24:41Speaker 10: it's five former players. You know, it's like with Delaney and.
- 2:24:46Speaker 2: Just like, it just is really cool.
- 2:24:47Speaker 5: I know, because I'm like, you want to move to Nashville?
- 2:24:49Speaker 3: Yeah, I know.
- 2:24:49Speaker 2: You did throw that.
- 2:24:50Speaker 10: I'm like, we have a lot here. But I'm like,
- 2:24:52Speaker 10: I don't think the wife.
- 2:24:52Speaker 2: When you said you had a lot, I was like,
- 2:24:54Speaker 2: I got the phone.
- 2:24:55Speaker 5: I was like, fuck.
- 2:24:56Speaker 1: I know.
- 2:24:56Speaker 2: We actually left that conversation thinking you were moving to
- 2:24:59Speaker 2: Nashville until very recently. I was like, Oh, cause he's not,
- 2:25:02Speaker 2: he's not doing that. Yeah. But I mean the 45
- 2:25:04Speaker 2: minutes before the show we're talking about where you, where
- 2:25:06Speaker 2: you're at and the set, if you got going on,
- 2:25:08Speaker 2: I would be your wife feeling we're not leaving.
- 2:25:10Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:25:10Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 2:25:10Speaker 2: We're staying right where we're at right now.
- 2:25:12Speaker 10: But like the good thing about digital is like, yeah,
- 2:25:14Speaker 10: I mean, that's what clumps figuring out like, Hey, what,
- 2:25:17Speaker 10: maybe our hard drive needs to live at your house
- 2:25:18Speaker 10: to like upload the stuff and all the things that
- 2:25:20Speaker 10: we've got planned and stuff.
- 2:25:21Speaker 2: So yeah, it'll be good. Oh, dude, we've had, we've
- 2:25:25Speaker 2: had some go back there. Aren't you? You're a little bloodhound,
- 2:25:28Speaker 2: aren't you? Boy, you're going.
- 2:25:31Speaker 10: Two weeks till the show.
- 2:25:31Speaker 9: We're not ready yet, but I guess.
- 2:25:34Speaker 4: That's the bus.
- 2:25:35Speaker 2: There's a little ESPN show on Friday. We still don't
- 2:25:37Speaker 2: know what we're doing.
- 2:25:37Speaker 11: We will be ready to go before the Sunday show
- 2:25:40Speaker 11: on Saturday, at least.
- 2:25:41Speaker 5: Because you'll be operating basically the NFL reaction show.
- 2:25:44Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:25:45Speaker 10: So that's another thing too, is like, um, It's really cool.
- 2:25:48Speaker 10: It's like we're going to be doing a Sunday night
- 2:25:52Speaker 10: reaction show.
- 2:25:53Speaker 2: White cap.
- 2:25:54Speaker 5: We're calling it white cap.
- 2:25:55Speaker 2: White cap.
- 2:25:57Speaker 8: Yes.
- 2:25:58Speaker 2: Yes.
- 2:25:59Speaker 10: And you guys will definitely got to be on for
- 2:26:01Speaker 10: some of it. But I think the biggest thing, too,
- 2:26:03Speaker 10: is like... I'm just kidding. No, I'm not. But it'd
- 2:26:07Speaker 10: be fun. It'll be like... Because I feel like Monday...
- 2:26:11Speaker 10: is a great time for reaction, but you, you let
- 2:26:14Speaker 10: it live Sunday night. And it's just like, you react
- 2:26:16Speaker 10: to the biggest and best games and just like what
- 2:26:19Speaker 10: we're seeing in the episode on it. It's going to
- 2:26:21Speaker 10: be called the first read, which I think is really cool.
- 2:26:24Speaker 10: Cause like, Hey quarterback, but also the first time you
- 2:26:26Speaker 10: get a chance to like, actually like we thought about
- 2:26:29Speaker 10: doing live and I'm like, Hey, we're going to do
- 2:26:30Speaker 10: this in a certain way where it's just going to
- 2:26:32Speaker 10: be really cool for you to go in and get
- 2:26:34Speaker 10: what you need about your game. And then couple that
- 2:26:37Speaker 10: with the breakdown. So two separate shows. It's not just
- 2:26:40Speaker 10: one show.
- 2:26:41Speaker 2: It's two shows. Yeah.
- 2:26:43Speaker 5: Because the first production call that all of our teams had,
- 2:26:45Speaker 5: it was like follow-up calls. Like, hey, do you get
- 2:26:48Speaker 5: the long form and we'll break things down?
- 2:26:50Speaker 10: We'll package it this way. I would say Taylor, you
- 2:26:57Speaker 10: had some good ideas on our first call. You're like, hey,
- 2:26:59Speaker 10: you just need a long form.
- 2:27:00Speaker 2: Yeah. And you're just like, oh.
- 2:27:02Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 2:27:03Speaker 2: It was like 15 people on that call and everyone's
- 2:27:05Speaker 2: got an opinion.
- 2:27:05Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:27:06Speaker 2: And I think like the way people were talking to you,
- 2:27:08Speaker 2: it's like, just guys, like, just do what you're doing
- 2:27:11Speaker 2: with a 20 minute intro. Yeah.
- 2:27:12Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 2:27:12Speaker 2: Call it a day. Yeah. And then that's, there's your
- 2:27:14Speaker 2: long form.
- 2:27:15Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 2:27:15Speaker 2: And so we'll do that.
- 2:27:16Speaker 10: We'll do, um, still trying to work out some, figure
- 2:27:20Speaker 10: out the best way to do it, but it'll be
- 2:27:21Speaker 10: like a 15 to 20 minute. reaction or what's going on.
- 2:27:27Speaker 10: We're going to do top six quarterbacks every week. We're
- 2:27:29Speaker 10: going to react. We're going to rank them week by week.
- 2:27:32Speaker 10: This is not going to be a, yeah, we're going.
- 2:27:33Speaker 2: To be doing that on it.
- 2:27:35Speaker 10: And then we're going to put three quarterback breakdowns together
- 2:27:37Speaker 10: and we're going to like rank each quarterback breakdown. Like, like,
- 2:27:40Speaker 10: you know, the best one of the week would be
- 2:27:41Speaker 10: like S tier. We're trying to still figure out all
- 2:27:44Speaker 10: that stuff, but it'll be able to live. And then
- 2:27:46Speaker 10: we'll still clip those quarterback breakdowns for the week. So
- 2:27:49Speaker 10: it'll be great. And then all the short form and just,
- 2:27:51Speaker 10: it just, it's cool to, cause I'm, I'm very much like,
- 2:27:55Speaker 10: you know, we talked about the quarterback breakdown link. I'm
- 2:27:57Speaker 10: very much a rookie at all levels. this side of things.
- 2:28:00Speaker 10: And so to be able to lean on you guys
- 2:28:02Speaker 10: and the team and everyone like that, like that was
- 2:28:04Speaker 10: a huge factor in like joining you guys.
- 2:28:07Speaker 2: Well, did you already got a proven commodity breakdown? It's like, it's,
- 2:28:10Speaker 2: you're going to crush this football season. It's going to
- 2:28:12Speaker 2: be awesome. I'm stoked. You're part of the bus with
- 2:28:14Speaker 2: the boys brand. One thing I'm not stoked about though, Missouri.
- 2:28:18Speaker 2: We still, how is Missouri? Do you think they're going
- 2:28:20Speaker 2: to be good this year?
- 2:28:21Speaker 3: Okay.
- 2:28:22Speaker 2: Six and six.
- 2:28:23Speaker 5: Going into our break, we're stuck on Missouri.
- 2:28:25Speaker 3: Stuck on Missouri.
- 2:28:26Speaker 2: We realize we got to introduce you.
- 2:28:27Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 2:28:28Speaker 2: And announce everything. Now we're back to, I need to
- 2:28:31Speaker 2: know Missouri. We have the schedule right here. Yeah.
- 2:28:34Speaker 10: We're going to be 4-0 going into Florida.
- 2:28:36Speaker 2: So you're just sleeping on Mississippi State.
- 2:28:38Speaker 10: I'm not sleeping, but I think we'll be good. I
- 2:28:39Speaker 10: think Ahmad Hardy will be back. Give him three weeks off.
- 2:28:42Speaker 10: We don't need him against Pine Bluff. Kansas is a
- 2:28:44Speaker 10: sneaky game. I will say that because we're going to Kansas.
- 2:28:47Speaker 10: And when you go to Kansas, it is like playing
- 2:28:48Speaker 10: in the middle of nowhere.
- 2:28:50Speaker 2: God, it is awful. It's bad. It's awful. Don't have
- 2:28:54Speaker 2: very good, though.
- 2:28:54Speaker 5: You guys will be fine.
- 2:28:57Speaker 2: Buckle.
- 2:28:57Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:28:58Speaker 2: I think we win that. Troy, Missouri.
- 2:29:01Speaker 10: I mean, we should. Mississippi State. Tough game.
- 2:29:07Speaker 2: First SEC team. You're not playing. You don't have to.
- 2:29:09Speaker 2: Not playing. I think we'll win.
- 2:29:10Speaker 10: So, like, here's the thing. Like, if we're 4-0 going
- 2:29:13Speaker 10: into Florida. There is no way in hell we're losing
- 2:29:15Speaker 10: the Florida game because it's homecoming. Did you know that
- 2:29:17Speaker 10: Missouri started homecoming? They were the first team ever to
- 2:29:21Speaker 10: have invite alumni back. We own homecoming. We're not losing
- 2:29:24Speaker 10: that game.
- 2:29:24Speaker 2: So we're 5-0. Okay.
- 2:29:25Speaker 10: It's actually a great take. 5-0.
- 2:29:27Speaker 2: That's bulletproof. A & M. You know. Marcel Reed. Probably not.
- 2:29:33Speaker 5: You got them at home, though.
- 2:29:34Speaker 2: Got them at home. Probably not. I mean, we could
- 2:29:38Speaker 2: be 5-2 Ole Miss. Arkansas. Arkansas.
- 2:29:42Speaker 10: That's like a little rivalry that they do. I think
- 2:29:44Speaker 10: it's like the battle. I don't understand that. Probably win
- 2:29:47Speaker 10: that game. Six and two.
- 2:29:48Speaker 2: Okay.
- 2:29:49Speaker 3: Texas.
- 2:29:50Speaker 10: Six and three.
- 2:29:50Speaker 2: Georgia. Six and four. Kentucky.
- 2:29:53Speaker 4: Winning.
- 2:29:54Speaker 5: Okay.
- 2:29:54Speaker 2: Seven and four. Seven and four. Oklahoma. Going to pull
- 2:29:56Speaker 2: one out of her ass. Seven and five. Eight and four.
- 2:30:00Speaker 2: Beat Oklahoma. We're pulling one out. Okay.
- 2:30:03Speaker 5: You might be living in the heyday when you took
- 2:30:04Speaker 5: them down back during your time.
- 2:30:06Speaker 10: See, but just see what I'm saying. Like- in general,
- 2:30:09Speaker 10: just playing in the sec is, is difficult. I mean,
- 2:30:12Speaker 10: same with big Tim, but like the schedule is brutal.
- 2:30:15Speaker 10: Like Georgia, Texas, Georgia, and Oklahoma in November to end
- 2:30:20Speaker 10: your season.
- 2:30:21Speaker 3: It sucks, dude.
- 2:30:22Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 2:30:22Speaker 4: It's tough.
- 2:30:24Speaker 10: I do think like if we went eight games this year,
- 2:30:27Speaker 10: I think it's a success for us. Because like, here's
- 2:30:31Speaker 10: my thing. So with this, we got sort of cut
- 2:30:32Speaker 10: off on it. It all comes down to Austin Simmons. Like,
- 2:30:34Speaker 10: I think our running backs will be fine. Ahmad Hardy,
- 2:30:37Speaker 10: once he gets healthy. Defense, still got to figure that
- 2:30:39Speaker 10: out some. We have not had, I don't want to
- 2:30:44Speaker 10: say anything too crazy. We have not had amazing quarterback
- 2:30:47Speaker 10: play since Brady Cook. like solid quarterback play. And so
- 2:30:51Speaker 10: that's really been two years. That's the biggest thing. We
- 2:30:53Speaker 10: keep getting these guys in the portal.
- 2:30:55Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:30:56Speaker 10: Perbula was, was fine. You know, thought he'd be a
- 2:30:58Speaker 10: little better, just didn't work out. And so it's, if
- 2:31:03Speaker 10: Austin Simmons can be what we thought he was going
- 2:31:07Speaker 10: to be at Ole Miss before he got replaced by
- 2:31:08Speaker 10: Trinidad Jamieson, maybe we got a shot, you know, maybe
- 2:31:10Speaker 10: we surprise some people, but it's, it's a tough schedule.
- 2:31:14Speaker 10: I mean, I'm going to feel really good about five
- 2:31:16Speaker 10: and oh, And then I'm just going to be going
- 2:31:17Speaker 10: nuts on the bandwagon. Then we're probably going to drop some.
- 2:31:20Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 2:31:21Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, the five and O Florida. I mean,
- 2:31:24Speaker 2: some of them, I just, you guys, the pedicures. He,
- 2:31:27Speaker 2: I feel like he's got a strong culture going on.
- 2:31:30Speaker 2: He's got a strong culture going on in Florida right now.
- 2:31:32Speaker 2: What do you think? Seven and five.
- 2:31:35Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 2:31:35Speaker 5: I mean, Missouri always seems to be a team to
- 2:31:37Speaker 5: meet it. We're like, you know, just one of those
- 2:31:39Speaker 5: sneaky teams. They get one or two that they shouldn't.
- 2:31:42Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 2:31:42Speaker 2: I would agree. I would agree with that. Like teams.
- 2:31:45Speaker 2: kind of have them on the schedule to where they
- 2:31:47Speaker 2: might circle it as a win.
- 2:31:49Speaker 5: Um, I like Mizzou though. I like drink. Big fan
- 2:31:52Speaker 5: of drink.
- 2:31:52Speaker 2: Yeah. Drink's awesome.
- 2:31:54Speaker 5: Oh, he hasn't been on the bus yet. He would
- 2:31:56Speaker 5: come on the show.
- 2:31:57Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:31:58Speaker 5: He sent me up about, uh, for the dads. Like
- 2:32:00Speaker 5: what's your relationship with what's your relationship like with drink? Yeah.
- 2:32:03Speaker 10: Drink's awesome. Like that's from the second he got the job,
- 2:32:05Speaker 10: like the second he got the job, he called like
- 2:32:07Speaker 10: texted like right away. Like, Hey dude, like love your support,
- 2:32:12Speaker 10: all this stuff. I'm like, dude, I'm in like I'm,
- 2:32:13Speaker 10: I'm all in. And so it's, He's, I think he's
- 2:32:16Speaker 10: the first head coach we've had.
- 2:32:17Speaker 2: In a while.
- 2:32:19Speaker 10: And I love, I love a lot of them. Like
- 2:32:20Speaker 10: shout out Barry Odom or Barry Odom. Who's at Purdue
- 2:32:22Speaker 10: now is like one of my boys. He was like, uh,
- 2:32:26Speaker 10: offensive quality control when I was playing there and he
- 2:32:29Speaker 10: ended up getting there. Obviously he played at Missouri legend. Um,
- 2:32:33Speaker 10: but with drink, I think what, what, what made him
- 2:32:35Speaker 10: different than everyone else is he is such a damn
- 2:32:39Speaker 10: good recruiter. like he looks much older than he is.
- 2:32:42Speaker 10: I don't even know how old he is, but he's,
- 2:32:43Speaker 10: he's like a young.
- 2:32:44Speaker 2: Kid at heart. And I think he.
- 2:32:46Speaker 5: Vibes with, just took a stray right there. Yeah.
- 2:32:49Speaker 2: I mean, it's true. Way older.
- 2:32:50Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 2:32:50Speaker 2: Yeah. It is true. The comb over going like, I
- 2:32:52Speaker 2: get it.
- 2:32:54Speaker 10: But I would say like, um, he's been really cool
- 2:32:58Speaker 10: at including me in just about like everything. Hey, we're
- 2:33:02Speaker 10: recruiting this kid or we're doing this or we're doing that. Like, Hey,
- 2:33:04Speaker 10: we really want you to come back. We really want,
- 2:33:06Speaker 10: and it's been nothing but love. Um, from that standpoint
- 2:33:11Speaker 10: with him. So I think, I mean, here's the thing, too,
- 2:33:15Speaker 10: about it. The dude's a genius. He just keeps leveraging
- 2:33:18Speaker 10: these winning seasons at Mizzou. He just keeps getting paid. Like,
- 2:33:21Speaker 10: they announce a new deal. I was telling him, I'm like,
- 2:33:23Speaker 10: I'm never paying for dinner with you ever again. Every
- 2:33:27Speaker 10: six months, he's getting a raise. And I'm talking to
- 2:33:29Speaker 10: the AD. I'm like, he's like, we just got to
- 2:33:30Speaker 10: pay him because, like, you guys don't understand. You remember
- 2:33:35Speaker 10: this offseason when LSU was open, Penn State was open.
- 2:33:39Speaker 2: He was a... He was up there.
- 2:33:42Speaker 5: He's on the list. Short list for both.
- 2:33:43Speaker 2: Once the domino of Penn State fell, everything started to
- 2:33:47Speaker 2: fall apart. Then there was Florida. Then there was Auburn.
- 2:33:49Speaker 2: Arkansas popped up. Michigan popped up. Nebraska, for a second,
- 2:33:53Speaker 2: thought they were going to lose their coach to Penn State.
- 2:33:55Speaker 2: It became absolute chaos. To where you see Drink get
- 2:33:59Speaker 2: an extension. You see Clark Lee. I thought he was
- 2:34:02Speaker 2: going to leave and go to Florida. He signs an
- 2:34:05Speaker 2: extension at Vanderbilt. What's he making? He's making tax.
- 2:34:08Speaker 10: 10.75%.
- 2:34:10Speaker 5: But again at missouri nine ten wins a year at
- 2:34:13Speaker 5: a place like mizzou it's like you have the leverage
- 2:34:15Speaker 5: because he's going to be all the big programs are
- 2:34:17Speaker 5: going to want somebody like that to come get all
- 2:34:19Speaker 5: the resources all the money that the top dogs have
- 2:34:22Speaker 5: and hey this guy if he can win like that
- 2:34:23Speaker 5: at mizzou he can for damn sure win.
- 2:34:26Speaker 2: Here this is what i like about drink and in
- 2:34:28Speaker 2: missouri is with the lackluster a below average quarterback play
- 2:34:32Speaker 2: they were able to be like all right we're gonna
- 2:34:34Speaker 2: lean on great like essentially iowa of the sec we're
- 2:34:36Speaker 2: like okay we'll just lean on a great run game
- 2:34:39Speaker 2: and a solid defense. And we're going to drag these teams,
- 2:34:42Speaker 2: drag these teams into the depths with us and make
- 2:34:45Speaker 2: them play our style of game to even out the odds. That's,
- 2:34:48Speaker 2: that's why I think we're drinks drink excels.
- 2:34:50Speaker 5: Yeah. How's the tight end room this year? Cause he
- 2:34:52Speaker 5: likes 12, 13 person.
- 2:34:54Speaker 2: He likes to do it. Honestly, I don't know.
- 2:34:55Speaker 10: I haven't studied them enough to like figure it out.
- 2:34:58Speaker 10: I'd be, I'd be talking out my ass if I,
- 2:35:00Speaker 10: if I told you, but I know the vibe, like
- 2:35:04Speaker 10: here's my thing is like at Missouri or some of these,
- 2:35:08Speaker 10: know different schools it's hard to win nine and ten
- 2:35:12Speaker 10: games in the sec when you don't have the money
- 2:35:15Speaker 10: to buy rosters right now here's one thing that i
- 2:35:17Speaker 10: will say about mizzou that like i think's really cool
- 2:35:21Speaker 10: is the fact that we were able to have a
- 2:35:24Speaker 10: really and i know the number i'm not gonna say
- 2:35:26Speaker 10: but a really competitive roster in terms of going out
- 2:35:29Speaker 10: there and getting money able to like pay players And that's,
- 2:35:34Speaker 10: that's probably the one thing in college football is like
- 2:35:36Speaker 10: these lower tier teams. I'm not saying Missouri is, you
- 2:35:39Speaker 10: don't have enough money. They don't have the fan base.
- 2:35:41Speaker 10: No one's looking at Mizzou saying, Oh my God, they
- 2:35:43Speaker 10: got deep pockets, but the fan base is rallied. Like
- 2:35:46Speaker 10: NIL is rallied. We have a really, really competitive. I'm
- 2:35:52Speaker 10: not saying I know the exact numbers.
- 2:35:54Speaker 2: Do you, do you love, you love Missouri? Like you've
- 2:35:57Speaker 2: watched them. You're biased towards them. You love them to death.
- 2:36:00Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:36:00Speaker 2: I went there. I have a, how much have you
- 2:36:02Speaker 2: given Missouri? they've never asked so you're saying they've never
- 2:36:08Speaker 2: asked hey we'd love we'd love to rename something after
- 2:36:11Speaker 2: you we'll rename the drink.
- 2:36:12Speaker 10: Cooler after you I'm not a big renamer I don't
- 2:36:14Speaker 10: think that's you don't want anything named after you in
- 2:36:16Speaker 10: the facility I think that's you guys are at 30
- 2:36:18Speaker 10: plus oh you looked it up yeah I think that
- 2:36:22Speaker 10: I don't I don't I don't want that how much.
- 2:36:24Speaker 2: Would you be willing to give Missouri this year going
- 2:36:26Speaker 2: into 2027 zero okay willing how much would you 10,000
- 2:36:30Speaker 2: no You want to give $ 10, 000?
- 2:36:34Speaker 10: I probably would.
- 2:36:35Speaker 2: Here's the thing.
- 2:36:36Speaker 10: What does $ 10, 000 buy them?
- 2:36:39Speaker 2: Like... Arcade game?
- 2:36:41Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 2:36:42Speaker 2: And it helps them go, hey, Chase Daniel, Heisman finalist
- 2:36:46Speaker 2: in 2007, he's donated to the NFL and these boosters
- 2:36:48Speaker 2: are like, oh, Jesus.
- 2:36:49Speaker 10: Here's where I think former players can help so much
- 2:36:53Speaker 10: more than money. I think just being a brand advocate
- 2:36:56Speaker 10: for them. I think that, like, we were talking about
- 2:36:59Speaker 10: even this offseason.
- 2:37:01Speaker 2: How about that, huh?
- 2:37:03Speaker 10: Dude, that is a lot of Coors Light. That is
- 2:37:07Speaker 10: Taco Bell and Coors Light.
- 2:37:08Speaker 2: That's Ben Roethlisberger's little brother right there.
- 2:37:10Speaker 10: What am I thinking with the chin strap?
- 2:37:11Speaker 2: That's kind of nice, dude.
- 2:37:13Speaker 5: Back in the 2000s, that went hard.
- 2:37:16Speaker 2: I mean, you got barrel chest right there. Brand advocacy.
- 2:37:24Speaker 2: Brand advocacy. I think you nailed it the first time.
- 2:37:27Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:37:28Speaker 10: I would say like, I would say that's like the
- 2:37:32Speaker 10: biggest thing that, like we were talking, you know how
- 2:37:35Speaker 10: like Max Krause is like the.
- 2:37:36Speaker 2: GM of, is it Eastern Washington? Eastern Michigan. Yeah, Eastern Michigan.
- 2:37:40Speaker 10: Stuff like that to promote in the brand of Mizzou
- 2:37:44Speaker 10: is so much more. Like even like collabing and like
- 2:37:47Speaker 10: shouting out Mizzou on like, that stuff to me goes
- 2:37:50Speaker 10: a lot further. Cause then, or like, Hey, hop on
- 2:37:52Speaker 10: this call, help recruit this guy like that to me.
- 2:37:54Speaker 10: I mean, I would give money for sure.
- 2:37:57Speaker 2: I've never been asked.
- 2:37:57Speaker 10: So I appreciate that too, that they haven't, you know,
- 2:38:01Speaker 10: here's the one thing that here, here's the one thing
- 2:38:10Speaker 10: that I wish they would change at Mizzou. And like,
- 2:38:16Speaker 10: did we have like the, The Ring of Honor or
- 2:38:20Speaker 10: whatever at Mizzou. Some amazing name. Jeremy Macklin just went
- 2:38:23Speaker 10: up in it.
- 2:38:24Speaker 2: Baller.
- 2:38:25Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
- 2:38:25Speaker 2: He's a.
- 2:38:26Speaker 6: But.
- 2:38:26Speaker 10: There's set stipulations that you have to make in terms
- 2:38:34Speaker 10: of like first female American or Heisman winner or something
- 2:38:37Speaker 10: like that to have your... number and name like up
- 2:38:41Speaker 10: on that and I didn't meet those because I was
- 2:38:43Speaker 10: second team All-American because Mr. Tebow won the Heisman in
- 2:38:46Speaker 10: 2007 so I was never first team All-American and I
- 2:38:48Speaker 10: didn't win the Heisman so I'm not even eligible for
- 2:38:51Speaker 10: up there I think that would be really cool you're
- 2:38:54Speaker 10: not in the ring of honor no because I'm not
- 2:38:55Speaker 10: eligible and I'm not I'm not like complaining or anything
- 2:38:58Speaker 10: I think it'd be cool though if they could just
- 2:39:00Speaker 10: bend the rule a little bit because I do think
- 2:39:02Speaker 10: like more so I say putting names like I don't
- 2:39:05Speaker 10: want the chase in your weight room I just think
- 2:39:06Speaker 10: it'd be cool because of what Missouri gave me to
- 2:39:10Speaker 10: get on that ring of honor with Jeremy.
- 2:39:12Speaker 2: Like, I think that would.
- 2:39:13Speaker 3: Be like cool.
- 2:39:14Speaker 5: You should be on, you should be in the ring
- 2:39:16Speaker 5: of honor.
- 2:39:16Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 2:39:16Speaker 10: But you know, rules are rules, right?
- 2:39:19Speaker 2: You, I mean, you were alleged.
- 2:39:20Speaker 10: I was second team All-American in 07 to Tebow. Understandably.
- 2:39:25Speaker 10: That is a horrible picture from them.
- 2:39:27Speaker 2: Yeah. David McFadden, Colt Brennan, rest in peace. Tebow. Fun,
- 2:39:33Speaker 2: fun experience. But like I, I think it was the
- 2:39:37Speaker 2: first time. Is your number retired? I don't know. That's
- 2:39:41Speaker 2: a good question. I don't care.
- 2:39:43Speaker 10: Like who, who got, uh, Jane, dude, we're 10, bro.
- 2:39:47Speaker 2: I could care less.
- 2:39:48Speaker 10: I do not care.
- 2:39:49Speaker 4: Okay.
- 2:39:49Speaker 5: Like I'm like, that's where I was going to go.
- 2:39:52Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:39:52Speaker 10: I'm just not, I'm not, I'm not an asshole like that. Like,
- 2:39:54Speaker 10: I'm like, dude, it's meant like, come on. Records are
- 2:39:57Speaker 10: meant to be broken. Like all that stuff.
- 2:39:58Speaker 2: Yeah. You're not, you are not the number. You're simply
- 2:40:02Speaker 2: borrowing the number. with a long line behind it.
- 2:40:04Speaker 10: But I think that was, that's the one thing I'd
- 2:40:06Speaker 10: be like, that'd be really cool because of drinks. Probably
- 2:40:08Speaker 10: listening right now because of the, yeah, for sure. You should,
- 2:40:10Speaker 10: because of the meaning behind it, you know, it's like, it's,
- 2:40:13Speaker 10: it's cool.
- 2:40:13Speaker 2: Oh yeah. That's one of the most amazing things in
- 2:40:15Speaker 2: the world to like walk into a stadium, a college
- 2:40:17Speaker 2: football stadium and be like, yeah, I'm one of the
- 2:40:19Speaker 2: greats to.
- 2:40:19Speaker 10: Show my kids. Like we brought our kids back there.
- 2:40:21Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 2:40:21Speaker 10: Like my kid's nine. He's like really into football. Like, Hey,
- 2:40:24Speaker 10: And just what you did.
- 2:40:25Speaker 2: For the program.
- 2:40:26Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:40:27Speaker 2: I mean, I grew up in Missouri. Like you were,
- 2:40:28Speaker 2: that was my, that was high school. Like you were
- 2:40:30Speaker 2: high school. You were my high school. Everybody was obsessed
- 2:40:34Speaker 2: with Chase Daniel, Jeremy Macklin. Like you guys.
- 2:40:40Speaker 10: We had a squad, man. We had a squad back then.
- 2:40:42Speaker 5: Like I'm not remembering like 80s, 90s, but are we
- 2:40:45Speaker 5: the best teams to be?
- 2:40:48Speaker 10: Uh, I would say that the 07 team is other
- 2:40:52Speaker 10: than the 19. When did they win a national orange bowl?
- 2:40:55Speaker 10: 1960 team. I would say it's the best team ever.
- 2:40:58Speaker 10: Might be a little.
- 2:40:59Speaker 3: And that's a 60s.
- 2:41:00Speaker 2: Like you're waxing the team in the 60s. Yeah, totally.
- 2:41:03Speaker 2: That spread offense. Yeah, for sure.
- 2:41:05Speaker 10: Uh, but I would say like, I think we finished.
- 2:41:07Speaker 10: So that's the one thing we finished 12 and two
- 2:41:11Speaker 10: smoked Arkansas with Darren McFadden, Felix Jones in the bowl game,
- 2:41:14Speaker 10: cotton bowls, smoked them. Probably my worst game ever, but
- 2:41:16Speaker 10: Tony Temple, uh, amazing running back, ran for like 300,
- 2:41:20Speaker 10: Cotton Bowl record. Finished 12-2, but we finished number four
- 2:41:23Speaker 10: in the country. Like we were number one in the
- 2:41:26Speaker 10: country after we beat Kansas at Armageddon game. And we
- 2:41:31Speaker 10: went to face Oklahoma in the Big 12 championship game,
- 2:41:34Speaker 10: ended up 14-14.5, ended up losing.
- 2:41:38Speaker 2: That game.
- 2:41:39Speaker 10: But if we would have won that game, it would
- 2:41:41Speaker 10: have been, and West Virginia would have won that game,
- 2:41:43Speaker 10: it would have been a Chase Eno-Pat McAfee national championship.
- 2:41:45Speaker 10: Because if you remember, West Virginia lost to Pittsburgh in
- 2:41:48Speaker 10: a backyard brawl. Because Pat missed a couple field goals.
- 2:41:51Speaker 10: I threw a couple interceptions, so it was our fault.
- 2:41:55Speaker 10: You know, but it would have been like, isn't that
- 2:41:57Speaker 10: crazy though, like in the BCS era? If you would
- 2:41:59Speaker 10: have had a West Virginia-Missouri national championship.
- 2:42:02Speaker 2: Would have been fire. Fire.
- 2:42:04Speaker 10: But we were number one in the country for that.
- 2:42:05Speaker 10: And then, man, the Oklahoma couldn't beat them. Never beat
- 2:42:08Speaker 10: him in my career. That's like the one team that
- 2:42:10Speaker 10: like you can never beat.
- 2:42:10Speaker 5: What was the aura like walking around Mizzou's campus as
- 2:42:13Speaker 5: Chase Daniel?
- 2:42:13Speaker 3: It was cool.
- 2:42:14Speaker 2: I mean, it was awesome. What'd you say? Couldn't miss. Yeah.
- 2:42:17Speaker 2: You couldn't get the class.
- 2:42:19Speaker 10: No, you know, what's cool about that? Like that era,
- 2:42:21Speaker 10: there's no smartphones. There's no any of that. Like 07
- 2:42:23Speaker 10: was the first Apple iPhone. No one had no idea
- 2:42:25Speaker 10: how to use it. It was only social media was
- 2:42:27Speaker 10: Facebook and.
- 2:42:29Speaker 2: MySpace was still kicking. MySpace. Yeah. MySpace. MySpace ripped.
- 2:42:32Speaker 10: Totally forgot. I never, I never was a MySpace guy. Um,
- 2:42:36Speaker 10: but that was it was cool man it was um
- 2:42:39Speaker 10: and the campus has changed so much it was just
- 2:42:41Speaker 10: like like i remember getting to missouri being from dallas
- 2:42:45Speaker 10: like south lake like highland park area and going there
- 2:42:50Speaker 10: and thinking like oh my.
- 2:42:51Speaker 5: God like why did i pick it why did i
- 2:42:53Speaker 5: pick missouri.
- 2:42:54Speaker 10: Like promise you like it was cold you got a
- 2:42:56Speaker 10: lot of texas guys ton of texas guys but like
- 2:42:59Speaker 10: that was my first year but then like i ended
- 2:43:01Speaker 10: up playing a little bit my first year and i
- 2:43:02Speaker 10: was like i ended up growing to love it like
- 2:43:04Speaker 10: couldn't imagine a better college town in my experience of
- 2:43:07Speaker 10: like growing up and playing and you had coach yost
- 2:43:10Speaker 10: yosty baby with a dolphin tattoo yeah yeah the long
- 2:43:14Speaker 10: hair unbelievable do you think in.
- 2:43:15Speaker 2: The new nil era if you like going to missouri
- 2:43:17Speaker 2: you would have transferred out after your first year oh
- 2:43:20Speaker 2: yeah he'd have been gone i mean i'll speak for
- 2:43:22Speaker 2: myself coming from arizona like the first winner the first
- 2:43:26Speaker 2: winner i was at michigan i read shirt and i
- 2:43:27Speaker 2: was like dude fuck this place. Like the first winter
- 2:43:31Speaker 2: I was like, this is, this is absolutely miserable to
- 2:43:33Speaker 2: where with that mindset, I probably would have left not knowing,
- 2:43:37Speaker 2: you know, how you got to see it through and
- 2:43:38Speaker 2: all that stuff. And what it ended up being for me.
- 2:43:40Speaker 10: I think that I would be really hard not to
- 2:43:44Speaker 10: leave for money, but I will say that like my
- 2:43:49Speaker 10: dad's like super old school military, like, raised me like
- 2:43:52Speaker 10: old school. Like I, so Texas came in last minute,
- 2:43:55Speaker 10: offered me all I wanted to do growing up was
- 2:43:57Speaker 10: go to Texas. They had signed Ryan Paraloo and Colt
- 2:44:01Speaker 10: McCoy that year, Ryan Paraloo on a signing day, peaced out,
- 2:44:05Speaker 10: went to LSU. So they had an open spot. They
- 2:44:07Speaker 10: called last minute. Hey, does Jason want to come? Cause
- 2:44:09Speaker 10: it was the only thing I wanted. My sister went
- 2:44:11Speaker 10: there and my dad was like, once you're committed, you're committed.
- 2:44:14Speaker 2: You're not flipping.
- 2:44:15Speaker 10: And you're saying, did you want to flip to Texas?
- 2:44:17Speaker 7: No.
- 2:44:17Speaker 2: At that point? No. Cause I was just like, all right, cool.
- 2:44:19Speaker 10: Like if text, I'm telling you right now, if Texas
- 2:44:22Speaker 10: would offer me from the jump, there's no doubt in
- 2:44:25Speaker 10: my mind, I would have gone to Texas.
- 2:44:26Speaker 2: I tried to decommit to my dad and didn't let me.
- 2:44:28Speaker 10: And so I don't know it. I don't know if
- 2:44:30Speaker 10: my dad would have let me to be honest with you. Like,
- 2:44:32Speaker 10: he's like, no, I don't want it for an extra
- 2:44:34Speaker 10: million or no, you're going to stay here. You're going
- 2:44:37Speaker 10: to get your education. And honestly, I think that is
- 2:44:39Speaker 10: like sort of an old school side of me that
- 2:44:41Speaker 10: I appreciate and love about them for sure.
- 2:44:43Speaker 2: That is awesome. You got to do For the Dads
- 2:44:46Speaker 2: really soon, so let's hit some fan questions. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 2:44:48Speaker 5: We can talk about you sitting down during my recruiting visit,
- 2:44:50Speaker 5: and I was just looking at Chase. I was like, oh, shit.
- 2:44:52Speaker 2: Wait, what? Damn, bro.
- 2:44:54Speaker 5: Yeah, you were at the dinner. You know how you
- 2:44:56Speaker 5: guys have the dinner hall or whatever, where you got
- 2:44:58Speaker 5: like a nice meal going on? Yost and Pinkle took
- 2:45:01Speaker 5: me over. It was you and it was Lambert, the linebacker.
- 2:45:04Speaker 2: Luke Lambert, yeah.
- 2:45:05Speaker 5: Because he was my host that trip. But you had
- 2:45:07Speaker 5: showed up, and you were sitting down, and I was like,
- 2:45:09Speaker 5: you know, again, small town, Missouri guy. It's like fucking–
- 2:45:13Speaker 5: That's Chase Dean.
- 2:45:14Speaker 10: Where do we take you for an after party?
- 2:45:16Speaker 2: Do you remember?
- 2:45:17Speaker 5: I think we went back to Lambert's house.
- 2:45:19Speaker 2: It's probably my house.
- 2:45:20Speaker 10: That's where everything was.
- 2:45:21Speaker 2: That's where everything happened.
- 2:45:22Speaker 3: Maybe.
- 2:45:22Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 2:45:23Speaker 5: It was a fun time, but I, you know.
- 2:45:25Speaker 2: House parties in Missouri, man. House parties. Oh, yeah.
- 2:45:28Speaker 5: In Missouri.
- 2:45:29Speaker 2: Yeah. House parties.
- 2:45:30Speaker 5: Okay.
- 2:45:31Speaker 2: This one comes from Caleb M underscore zero two. Ask
- 2:45:34Speaker 2: if you would consider a coaching role at Mizzou. If
- 2:45:37Speaker 2: he was offered quarterback room, could use some help?
- 2:45:41Speaker 7: No.
- 2:45:42Speaker 3: Okay.
- 2:45:43Speaker 4: Onward.
- 2:45:43Speaker 2: Life's too good.
- 2:45:44Speaker 5: Life's too good.
- 2:45:44Speaker 2: Life's too good. Part of the blessing universe now. Yeah,
- 2:45:48Speaker 2: it's true.
- 2:45:49Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:45:49Speaker 5: One here from Payson Bain. Since you've played in multiple
- 2:45:53Speaker 5: NFL offensive systems throughout your career, which system was the
- 2:45:56Speaker 5: hardest for a quarterback to learn and fully grasp?
- 2:45:59Speaker 10: Man, that's a good question. I thought I knew ball.
- 2:46:04Speaker 10: Like going in, like I felt like I always watched
- 2:46:06Speaker 10: film the most. I always was like, I was trying
- 2:46:09Speaker 10: to always be the smartest quarterback in the room in college.
- 2:46:12Speaker 10: And when I got to the NFL, I signed with
- 2:46:13Speaker 10: the Redskins, um, ended up getting cut. That's a whole
- 2:46:17Speaker 10: nother story, but, um, signed with new Orleans, won a Superbowl.
- 2:46:21Speaker 10: My rookie year was third string quarterback behind Brunel. It's
- 2:46:24Speaker 10: pretty much the coffee guy, but I learned so much
- 2:46:25Speaker 10: that year. And I would say like, it took me
- 2:46:28Speaker 10: a full year and a half, two years to learn
- 2:46:32Speaker 10: Sean Payton's offense.
- 2:46:34Speaker 2: Like just to actually feel.
- 2:46:36Speaker 10: Comfortable because it was so wordy and it was, there's
- 2:46:39Speaker 10: so much going on. Like Andy Reed, um, wasn't too
- 2:46:42Speaker 10: bad because he was names, but you would tag in, in, in, uh,
- 2:46:47Speaker 10: Sean Payton's offense. You would tag like, you know, green, right? Slot,
- 2:46:51Speaker 10: nasty Z motion, fake 37 busher. So at X sting,
- 2:46:55Speaker 10: a Z spear, Y late flat, you would tag everyone.
- 2:46:58Speaker 10: And I just, we didn't huddle in college.
- 2:47:01Speaker 2: It was like, let's look at the card.
- 2:47:03Speaker 10: You go, you know, it's like, look at the card.
- 2:47:05Speaker 10: So it's for sure. Sean Payton, Sean Payton, not even close.
- 2:47:09Speaker 2: Are you bullish on Bo Nix? This year in Denver?
- 2:47:11Speaker 2: Love Bo Nix.
- 2:47:13Speaker 10: Dude, I've been a big fan of Bo since he
- 2:47:16Speaker 10: came out. And like just being close with Sean still
- 2:47:19Speaker 10: just how much Sean loves them. The fact that they
- 2:47:21Speaker 10: were the draft. I mean, if Bo can have a
- 2:47:25Speaker 10: season to where one, he's going to stay healthy, but
- 2:47:28Speaker 10: to my biggest thing with Bo last year was his footwork.
- 2:47:30Speaker 10: His footwork was off. He didn't really marry up the
- 2:47:33Speaker 10: scheme with his footwork. So he's always ahead. So he's
- 2:47:35Speaker 10: always looking like he had like feet in the, in the,
- 2:47:38Speaker 10: in the, In the pocket. But with Davis Webb now
- 2:47:43Speaker 10: taking over play calling from Sean Payton and knowing Davis
- 2:47:47Speaker 10: and sitting in those meeting rooms last year in training camp,
- 2:47:51Speaker 10: I think it's going to be good. He's changed the
- 2:47:52Speaker 10: offense a lot, but I think it's going to be great.
- 2:47:55Speaker 2: What was the Bullish on Bo?
- 2:47:56Speaker 5: Yeah, Bullish on Bo. You talk about how much Sean
- 2:47:59Speaker 5: loves him. What was the little dust up that kind
- 2:48:00Speaker 5: of happened after the season in the offseason kind of
- 2:48:04Speaker 5: references his injury? It seemed like Bo didn't like it.
- 2:48:07Speaker 2: Yeah. What was your take on that on the outside
- 2:48:10Speaker 2: looking in?
- 2:48:10Speaker 10: You're saying when he got hurt?
- 2:48:12Speaker 2: When he broke his ankle? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 2:48:14Speaker 5: And then I want to say he kind of talked
- 2:48:15Speaker 5: about his injury or Coach Payton might have talked about
- 2:48:17Speaker 5: his injury. And then the next time Bo spoke on it,
- 2:48:20Speaker 5: it seemed like he did not.
- 2:48:21Speaker 2: Yeah, I think.
- 2:48:22Speaker 5: Like that Sean did it.
- 2:48:23Speaker 2: I think he.
- 2:48:23Speaker 5: Like as far as how is their relationship?
- 2:48:26Speaker 10: I think their relationship's good. I think that Davis, Webb,
- 2:48:29Speaker 10: and Bo get along and see eye to eye. I
- 2:48:31Speaker 10: think that being with Sean for five years, even with Drew,
- 2:48:35Speaker 10: Sean is.
- 2:48:38Speaker 10: Awesome but he is very difficult at times to get
- 2:48:41Speaker 10: along with not in a bad way but in a
- 2:48:44Speaker 10: way of like give an example understand because like even
- 2:48:47Speaker 10: like he would go like him and drew even would
- 2:48:51Speaker 10: have like like that like he he would challenge drew
- 2:48:56Speaker 10: in a way that drew wouldn't like at times because
- 2:48:58Speaker 10: it almost like not embarrass them in front but it's
- 2:49:01Speaker 10: almost like the the bill belichick tom brady thing where
- 2:49:04Speaker 10: you're calling him out in team meeting and stuff like
- 2:49:05Speaker 10: that and i think sean i is such a confidence
- 2:49:09Speaker 10: and he's like the best play caller in the world
- 2:49:11Speaker 10: that he would be like, Oh, you know.
- 2:49:13Speaker 2: What are you doing here?
- 2:49:14Speaker 10: And this, and I think drew at times didn't like it,
- 2:49:17Speaker 10: but on game day, they were always aligned. And I think,
- 2:49:20Speaker 10: so that's drew, he's an old school guy. And now
- 2:49:22Speaker 10: you with Bo Nix, a younger guy and Sean's even
- 2:49:26Speaker 10: older tries to do it. It doesn't quite work the same,
- 2:49:29Speaker 10: but I think they both respect each other the hell
- 2:49:31Speaker 10: out of each other. But I think that this new
- 2:49:33Speaker 10: play caller will be great for Bo.
- 2:49:35Speaker 4: Love that.
- 2:49:36Speaker 2: Love it. All right, let's go to some Chasing Mountains.
- 2:49:38Speaker 2: Why the hell is Crisp Apple number five?
- 2:49:41Speaker 10: So we must... That whole thing was the mix-up because
- 2:49:44Speaker 10: you thought... Tell us what you thought on the Crisp
- 2:49:48Speaker 10: Apple thing because I was thinking... You were thinking it
- 2:49:51Speaker 10: was going to be higher when I was thinking it
- 2:49:52Speaker 10: was going to be lower.
- 2:49:53Speaker 2: Yeah, Crisp Apple. I think we just have a big
- 2:49:56Speaker 2: separation on where you have Crisp Apple in the rankings.
- 2:50:00Speaker 2: I think... What is... What are we talking about here? Olipop.
- 2:50:03Speaker 2: What else? Oh, yeah.
- 2:50:04Speaker 5: Crisp Apple Olipop. I'm sorry.
- 2:50:06Speaker 2: Yeah crisp apple um cream soda rips root beer rips.
- 2:50:12Speaker 10: Yeah ginger ale i think it's five i think five's
- 2:50:15Speaker 10: a good spot for it i don't i it tastes
- 2:50:17Speaker 10: that was where the separation was got you he thought
- 2:50:19Speaker 10: it should be way higher i raised five oh okay
- 2:50:22Speaker 10: why do you think it's number one i think it's
- 2:50:24Speaker 10: number one i think if i don't like what do
- 2:50:25Speaker 10: you like about crisp apple that it's number one i love.
- 2:50:28Speaker 5: The um the carbonated carbonated like apple juice And that's
- 2:50:33Speaker 5: what it is. And I think it encapsulates that very well.
- 2:50:36Speaker 10: I think I drank too much apple juice growing up
- 2:50:38Speaker 10: that it just reminds me of too much apple juice.
- 2:50:42Speaker 2: Too much of a good thing is what he's saying.
- 2:50:43Speaker 2: That's what he's saying. I loved apple juice too growing up.
- 2:50:46Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 2:50:47Speaker 2: So much so I drank it when it was spoiled
- 2:50:48Speaker 2: in like a glump.
- 2:50:50Speaker 5: I swear to God. But I never quit it. Never
- 2:50:54Speaker 5: quit apple juice. I'd take that one on the chin
- 2:50:57Speaker 5: and just be like, listen, we got to work this out.
- 2:51:00Speaker 2: We weren't even skittish at all for the next sip
- 2:51:03Speaker 2: of apple juice. I drink it from the bottle. The
- 2:51:05Speaker 2: big bottle. Drink it from the teat.
- 2:51:06Speaker 5: Big, big bottle.
- 2:51:07Speaker 2: All right. Okay. Joe Iredale, fourth and goal from the
- 2:51:12Speaker 2: seven to win the game.
- 2:51:15Speaker 5: What you calling?
- 2:51:16Speaker 2: Not what are you calling? What you calling? Yeah. Oh
- 2:51:20Speaker 2: my gosh. Probably that play you said earlier. No, that's
- 2:51:27Speaker 2: like 21 personnel. Not good.
- 2:51:29Speaker 10: Um, I think you're calling this might, if it was
- 2:51:34Speaker 10: at the six, it'd make a difference. There's a play
- 2:51:37Speaker 10: in Sean Payton's offense. It's called like gun bunch, right?
- 2:51:39Speaker 10: Tear 53 X upright H rail, double cross and 53.
- 2:51:45Speaker 10: The only thing I would give a little pause is
- 2:51:47Speaker 10: they're probably zeroing you from the seven. They're either zero
- 2:51:52Speaker 10: or drop eight 22 Tampa. This has a beater for all.
- 2:51:56Speaker 5: He's spot on.
- 2:51:59Speaker 10: Spot off so you could do an upright which means
- 2:52:01Speaker 10: like you're running a deep dagger two yards past the
- 2:52:04Speaker 10: inline you have a rail route going out you have
- 2:52:06Speaker 10: two crossers plus a post the first crosser probably won't
- 2:52:10Speaker 10: get in knowing i can't throw that it's pure progression
- 2:52:12Speaker 10: read i don't have to choose a side which means
- 2:52:14Speaker 10: you can go left to right the only thing i'm
- 2:52:17Speaker 10: worried about is 53 protection is.
- 2:52:18Speaker 2: Scat yeah so you get zero you guys jelly or
- 2:52:22Speaker 2: just jelly squeeze yeah yeah That's you got to be
- 2:52:24Speaker 2: hot on that.
- 2:52:25Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 2:52:25Speaker 2: You got to be hot.
- 2:52:26Speaker 10: And so hopefully if you're jelly season, I'm going to
- 2:52:28Speaker 10: be pointing, I'm be pointing the mic to the right.
- 2:52:31Speaker 10: So your left tackle eyes are on the inside back.
- 2:52:33Speaker 10: Or if that happens in the end should peel with
- 2:52:35Speaker 10: the back. Then you can, then we're good.
- 2:52:38Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:52:38Speaker 2: But if he doesn't, we're screwed. Then you're kind of done.
- 2:52:41Speaker 2: Then you got to play some hero ball at the
- 2:52:42Speaker 2: left tackle position. Hit that three technique for a little bit.
- 2:52:45Speaker 2: And then the last second kind of.
- 2:52:46Speaker 10: How hard is that though? When you know my Mike's right,
- 2:52:48Speaker 10: you're playing left tackle. And I know my hot's left.
- 2:52:51Speaker 10: Your eyes just like you're setting, but your eyes are
- 2:52:54Speaker 10: just like looking at that wheel or are you just
- 2:52:57Speaker 10: feeling it?
- 2:52:57Speaker 2: The hardest part is if you're not hot and you're
- 2:52:59Speaker 2: wrong and there's not.
- 2:53:00Speaker 10: A blitz coming. Cause then you're not vertical setting.
- 2:53:03Speaker 2: I'm vertical setting and I'm looking inside. And once I
- 2:53:06Speaker 2: realized that, oh, he's not coming. I now have to
- 2:53:09Speaker 2: get back out and transition my eyes and my hands
- 2:53:11Speaker 2: to the end. I was already in a mood for
- 2:53:13Speaker 2: me and that's really difficult. But if that guy comes,
- 2:53:15Speaker 2: it's like, oh, I'm just gonna play. I'm going to,
- 2:53:18Speaker 2: I'm just going to give you an extra half a
- 2:53:20Speaker 2: split second of time. So it's like, I'm going to
- 2:53:21Speaker 2: hit this guy and then dive out.
- 2:53:23Speaker 10: The hardest thing though, I feel like is if he's
- 2:53:24Speaker 10: mugged up in the B gap.
- 2:53:26Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 2:53:27Speaker 10: Because you would, would you, would you set and then,
- 2:53:30Speaker 10: and then, and then gets out. Cause at least you're,
- 2:53:32Speaker 10: you're punching with right. And then setting just in case.
- 2:53:35Speaker 2: Depends how athletic the three technique is. For me, that
- 2:53:38Speaker 2: was kind of my, like I was an athletic tackle.
- 2:53:41Speaker 2: So I believed in the idea that I could set back,
- 2:53:44Speaker 2: let it all come to me and I can go
- 2:53:46Speaker 2: in and come back out if I want.
- 2:53:47Speaker 10: Easier to go in rather than go out for you?
- 2:53:51Speaker 2: Or. Just depends where, if you guys mugged up, I
- 2:53:53Speaker 2: would probably go in fast and then turn, have more
- 2:53:56Speaker 2: of a straight line. And then I just step up
- 2:53:58Speaker 2: in the pocket. I would scream your name as I'm
- 2:53:59Speaker 2: diving at the end.
- 2:54:00Speaker 4: Chase!
- 2:54:01Speaker 2: Yeah. Do it! That's great. That's probably what I would
- 2:54:05Speaker 2: do right there. Why, Hey, why is it a huge
- 2:54:07Speaker 2: difference if you're on the six as opposed to the seven? Um,
- 2:54:10Speaker 2: because on the six, uh, it's the difference of route
- 2:54:13Speaker 2: depth on the play. I called you have about a five,
- 2:54:16Speaker 2: six yard. You don't want to throw the ball short
- 2:54:18Speaker 2: of the goal line unless they're zeroing. And so one,
- 2:54:22Speaker 2: I don't have a zero answer so much, but the
- 2:54:23Speaker 2: six is a six yard. It's it's actual six yard
- 2:54:26Speaker 2: cross route. So at least you're on the goal line
- 2:54:29Speaker 2: where if you're a seven, You're hoping you would have
- 2:54:31Speaker 2: like a Keenan Allen to know, I need to go
- 2:54:33Speaker 2: a little bit deeper on the first cross. A cross
- 2:54:36Speaker 2: meaning like almost like a shallow cross, but the deeper
- 2:54:38Speaker 2: cross is seven. So just purely based on the yardage.
- 2:54:41Speaker 2: Got you. It's a great answer. It's a great answer.
- 2:54:44Speaker 2: Good ball talk. Good ball talk. Bud Light question. The BLQ.
- 2:54:50Speaker 2: People would do anything for an ice cold Bud Light.
- 2:54:52Speaker 2: I'm not familiar. What would you do anything for? What
- 2:54:55Speaker 2: would Chase Daniel do? Oh, is this what Rabel said
- 2:54:57Speaker 2: he'd cut his.
- 2:54:58Speaker 5: Kind of.
- 2:54:59Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess so. It's the evolution. It's the evolution
- 2:55:01Speaker 2: of that. So what's the question? What would you do
- 2:55:04Speaker 2: anything for? All right. If you want examples, we can
- 2:55:08Speaker 2: give it to you. Can't say family.
- 2:55:09Speaker 3: Okay.
- 2:55:10Speaker 2: People have said they want to go to space. People
- 2:55:12Speaker 2: said they'd love to travel back in time and go
- 2:55:13Speaker 2: see dinosaurs. Brock Bauer said he'd like a nice steak dinner.
- 2:55:18Speaker 10: So what's the premise behind the question, though? The premise is,
- 2:55:21Speaker 10: what would you do anything for?
- 2:55:22Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:55:26Speaker 2: Who comes at a fried bologna sandwich? yep like what
- 2:55:28Speaker 2: okay what is like top um got a nice watch
- 2:55:32Speaker 2: maybe it's a you do anything for a paddock man
- 2:55:35Speaker 2: this is a tough question i know because there's a
- 2:55:38Speaker 2: lot hardest question of the podcast oh do anything to
- 2:55:41Speaker 2: be in the ring of honor at missouri that's a
- 2:55:43Speaker 2: good one that's a good one calm don't fucking miss.
- 2:55:50Speaker 10: I'm just looking at the rule with no expectations if
- 2:55:52Speaker 10: it has tits or tires it will give you problems
- 2:55:55Speaker 10: there you go.
- 2:55:55Speaker 2: Just saw that um let's give it Yeah.
- 2:55:57Speaker 10: I mean, I think, um, the, the older you get,
- 2:56:03Speaker 10: the more you think about legacy a little bit.
- 2:56:05Speaker 2: So I like clumps.
- 2:56:05Speaker 10: I'd probably say that like to be able to be
- 2:56:08Speaker 10: in the ring of honor, I think would be like
- 2:56:09Speaker 10: such a cool thing, mainly just for like showing my
- 2:56:14Speaker 10: kids like, Hey, dad was cool at some point. Like
- 2:56:16Speaker 10: dad did this. Cause my, my, my boy's getting really
- 2:56:19Speaker 10: into flag football. I've been coaching up the team since
- 2:56:22Speaker 10: pre-K I'm the, I'm the coach. Like you know it's
- 2:56:25Speaker 10: like we do we're rolling we got wristbands the second
- 2:56:27Speaker 10: grade like third graders um yeah let's go with that
- 2:56:31Speaker 10: clump that's a good one.
- 2:56:34Speaker 2: What about the heisman oh beat tim tebow's ass take
- 2:56:38Speaker 2: the heisman tim and i are teammates again man he's
- 2:56:41Speaker 2: sec nation i know but like.
- 2:56:42Speaker 10: I would say i would say like um not knowing
- 2:56:47Speaker 10: a thing because i'm like oh this is easy to
- 2:56:48Speaker 10: get back to in 08 and it was a finalist
- 2:56:50Speaker 10: but didn't get invited to it in 08 again I
- 2:56:53Speaker 10: would say like, if we beat Oklahoma, then we have
- 2:56:57Speaker 10: a discussion. There's an actual discussion on who wins the Heisman. Um,
- 2:57:01Speaker 10: but the fact that we didn't, so no, probably I
- 2:57:03Speaker 10: wouldn't go back because like we, I didn't earn it,
- 2:57:06Speaker 10: but you can go back. I didn't earn it, but
- 2:57:07Speaker 10: you can, if we win.
- 2:57:10Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:57:11Speaker 2: You'd do anything to go back, beat Oklahoma, win the Heisman.
- 2:57:14Speaker 3: No.
- 2:57:15Speaker 2: But then you for sure get the ring of honor.
- 2:57:16Speaker 2: So kind of gets a two for one special. That's
- 2:57:20Speaker 2: a two for one special.
- 2:57:22Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:57:23Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:57:24Speaker 2: Heisman, I think. If you and Tim Tebow fought, He
- 2:57:28Speaker 2: would for sure. You think so? Dude is still jacked.
- 2:57:31Speaker 2: He is way more jacked than he was before.
- 2:57:33Speaker 10: He's way more. And like, we're looking forward to going
- 2:57:36Speaker 10: to row with him, but he is like eat super clean.
- 2:57:40Speaker 10: He's in the gym every morning, like just doing curls.
- 2:57:43Speaker 10: And he's more jacked than that middle picture too. It's unbelievable.
- 2:57:49Speaker 10: That's what he looks like right now. His arms are
- 2:57:52Speaker 10: almost as big as Josh Pate's arms.
- 2:57:55Speaker 2: Big arms as big arms. Yeah.
- 2:57:58Speaker 10: And he said, dude, that's 281 weeks ago. My gosh. Um,
- 2:58:03Speaker 10: but like the dude is still like in the, how
- 2:58:06Speaker 10: about Tebow as a tight end?
- 2:58:08Speaker 2: What? That was a crazy rule. Yeah. He loves that happen. That's,
- 2:58:14Speaker 2: that's more like it.
- 2:58:15Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 2:58:15Speaker 2: I mean, such a good dude too. Honestly, like Tim
- 2:58:19Speaker 2: would love to have you on, would love to have
- 2:58:21Speaker 2: you on. I had the worst first impression ever with
- 2:58:24Speaker 2: Tim Tebow. I had the worst first impression of all time.
- 2:58:27Speaker 3: Did you?
- 2:58:27Speaker 2: It's 2014. I'm getting ready for this. So it's like
- 2:58:30Speaker 2: March in Arizona. And I walk out to my old
- 2:58:32Speaker 2: high school chaparral and Tim Tebow is throwing passes to
- 2:58:36Speaker 2: Larry Fitzgerald. And I'm going to get a workout. And
- 2:58:38Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, fuck. What are those two? So I
- 2:58:41Speaker 2: go get my workout. I come back and like someone,
- 2:58:44Speaker 2: I think it was Charlie Regal comes up and he's like, Taylor, blah, blah, blah.
- 2:58:47Speaker 2: They introduced us. Larry Fitzgerald, give him a handshake. And
- 2:58:49Speaker 2: then for whatever reason in my brain, I think the
- 2:58:52Speaker 2: good first impression with Tim Tebow is the prick is
- 2:58:55Speaker 2: urban Meyer. Just, I think he just got the job
- 2:58:57Speaker 2: at Ohio state and we're kind of talking about that.
- 2:59:00Speaker 2: And I go, yeah, I heard urban Meyer's like not
- 2:59:02Speaker 2: a great guy. I heard he's like not a good dude.
- 2:59:05Speaker 2: He sat me down for no joke, like probably 10
- 2:59:08Speaker 2: minutes felt like three hours. And he just told me
- 2:59:12Speaker 2: about how good of a man he is. urban Meyer
- 2:59:14Speaker 2: is and how his character, his integrity, how dare I,
- 2:59:19Speaker 2: and to the polar, Larry walked away and I'm sitting
- 2:59:22Speaker 2: on this bench being scolded by kind of my hero.
- 2:59:25Speaker 2: Like this dude was winning national championships when I was
- 2:59:28Speaker 2: in high school. And he's like telling me like all
- 2:59:30Speaker 2: of these things about how great of a guy urban
- 2:59:32Speaker 2: Meyer is. And I'm like, I'm really taking a fat
- 2:59:34Speaker 2: L right here. I feel terrible.
- 2:59:37Speaker 10: What did you say to him after the lecture?
- 2:59:38Speaker 2: Oh, I apologized. I apologized. Sat back, fell back, totally
- 2:59:43Speaker 2: got in a shell about it. It was like, oh my,
- 2:59:45Speaker 2: get me out of this conversation. I'm worried about who
- 2:59:47Speaker 2: I'm going to get drafted to.
- 2:59:48Speaker 7: Wow.
- 2:59:49Speaker 10: Dude, I'm telling you, he still looks like he'd play.
- 2:59:53Speaker 2: I'm showing the weight on the weighted pull-ups. Full extension.
- 2:59:55Speaker 5: Full extension right there.
- 2:59:57Speaker 2: Weighted pull-ups.
- 2:59:57Speaker 11: I might be asking the wrong question here, but was
- 3:00:00Speaker 11: it Missouri that didn't let him in the weight room?
- 3:00:01Speaker 9: Was that your doing? You didn't want Tim in the
- 3:00:03Speaker 9: Missouri weight room?
- 3:00:04Speaker 5: Was that a story?
- 3:00:04Speaker 2: I don't remember that. Was that a story? You didn't
- 3:00:07Speaker 2: do that?
- 3:00:07Speaker 11: No, wait, I got it mixed up. It was Pate
- 3:00:09Speaker 11: who wasn't allowed in the weight room. Tim Tebow was
- 3:00:12Speaker 11: allowed in the weight room.
- 3:00:13Speaker 2: Mix it up.
- 3:00:13Speaker 3: Cut that.
- 3:00:14Speaker 2: What happened? Cut that also. Wait, so what happened?
- 3:00:19Speaker 3: I think Josh Pate went to a Mizzou game last
- 3:00:21Speaker 3: year and they didn't allow him in the weight room.
- 3:00:24Speaker 9: Yeah, Tim Tebow had like a closed workout.
- 3:00:25Speaker 2: No one could go in. That's crazy. You guys do
- 3:00:29Speaker 2: that there?
- 3:00:30Speaker 5: I guess so.
- 3:00:30Speaker 2: They let Pate in then. For a Heisman? It's true.
- 3:00:37Speaker 2: What a good show. Great show, dude. We're fired up
- 3:00:39Speaker 2: to have you.
- 3:00:39Speaker 5: We're obviously going to rip For the Dads next.
- 3:00:41Speaker 11: Yes.
- 3:00:42Speaker 2: But first read, when can people expect it to come out? Yeah.
- 3:00:46Speaker 5: What's the cadence on that?
- 3:00:47Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 3:00:47Speaker 10: So it'll be every Sunday night.
- 3:00:49Speaker 2: Clump, right?
- 3:00:50Speaker 7: Yes, sir.
- 3:00:50Speaker 2: When's our first show? That would be the 13th.
- 3:00:53Speaker 10: The 13th will be the first show. And- We're excited
- 3:00:58Speaker 10: about it, man. I think that like, so that'll be
- 3:01:00Speaker 10: the recap show Sunday night and it'll just be a fun, like,
- 3:01:03Speaker 10: I'm not going to yell at you. We're not going
- 3:01:05Speaker 10: to do, we're just going to see and talk about
- 3:01:06Speaker 10: like the biggest stories. We're not going to talk about
- 3:01:09Speaker 10: every single team that ain't, that ain't the platform for it.
- 3:01:13Speaker 10: But it'll be interesting to one. We're going to try
- 3:01:16Speaker 10: to have some guests on, but it's just going to
- 3:01:17Speaker 10: be me from a quarterback perspective. Like, Hey, what's happening?
- 3:01:20Speaker 10: Like what's actually happening on the field. There's so many
- 3:01:23Speaker 10: hot take shows. There's so many of this and that,
- 3:01:24Speaker 10: and that'll live in there. we're just going to go
- 3:01:28Speaker 10: game by game. We're going to pick the most important
- 3:01:31Speaker 10: games of the weekend. And we're just going to talk
- 3:01:33Speaker 10: about what we saw, like what we're going to try
- 3:01:35Speaker 10: to get ahead of it. We're going to look like it's, it's, um,
- 3:01:38Speaker 10: in a quarterback room and I'm going to be speaking
- 3:01:40Speaker 10: at you from a quarterback perspective, but also understanding the
- 3:01:45Speaker 10: storylines that flow throughout the season. Week one's a huge season, uh,
- 3:01:48Speaker 10: or a huge start obviously, but like, Hey, what, Chase,
- 3:01:51Speaker 10: what can I care about in week six? Well, we're
- 3:01:53Speaker 10: going to tie in different divisions. We're going to tie
- 3:01:55Speaker 10: in storylines. We're going to tie in all sorts of things.
- 3:01:58Speaker 10: And that'll be followed up by then three, maybe four
- 3:02:01Speaker 10: quarterback breakdowns a week on the long form of the
- 3:02:04Speaker 10: breakdown as well. So first read is super excited. I'm
- 3:02:07Speaker 10: excited about it. We've got a great team. Klump has
- 3:02:10Speaker 10: been great. Grant has been great. So we're just trying
- 3:02:13Speaker 10: to build this thing as we go. And we definitely
- 3:02:17Speaker 10: want to make it like, as much fan interaction. So
- 3:02:21Speaker 10: during the week, we're going to be talking about, Hey,
- 3:02:23Speaker 10: what do you want to hear on the first read?
- 3:02:24Speaker 10: Like during Sunday games, like tell me your top five
- 3:02:28Speaker 10: storylines you want to hear talked about. So all that
- 3:02:30Speaker 10: stuff is bringing the fans in there. It's going to
- 3:02:32Speaker 10: live on y'all's YouTube channel. So it'll be good to
- 3:02:34Speaker 10: get introduced to y'all's, um, audience. Um, but yeah, super
- 3:02:39Speaker 10: excited about it.
- 3:02:40Speaker 2: And then QB Breakdown, that'll be on Mondays?
- 3:02:43Speaker 10: QB Breakdowns will go live Tuesday morning. We're still trying
- 3:02:46Speaker 10: to figure that out, the full long form of it.
- 3:02:48Speaker 10: So we'll do, maybe we'll call back from the first read.
- 3:02:51Speaker 10: Maybe we'll call back from stuff that happened. We'll have
- 3:02:53Speaker 10: the top six quarterbacks of the week. We're going to
- 3:02:55Speaker 10: do that every single week. FanDuel sponsored segment will be
- 3:02:58Speaker 10: nice with that. Shout out FanDuel. And yeah, we're going
- 3:03:04Speaker 10: to have fun with it. And there's still going to
- 3:03:05Speaker 10: be a lot of short form all throughout the week.
- 3:03:08Speaker 10: Here's what I can't stand on some of these shows.
- 3:03:11Speaker 10: When you just do something that doesn't make sense every
- 3:03:14Speaker 10: week and you can't follow along, you're going to be
- 3:03:17Speaker 10: able to follow along the whole year from week one
- 3:03:19Speaker 10: to the Super Bowl on like there's going to be
- 3:03:21Speaker 10: connective tissue through all of it from the breakdown, from
- 3:03:24Speaker 10: the first read, everything about it. And it's going to
- 3:03:26Speaker 10: be really easy to follow from an audience standpoint.
- 3:03:28Speaker 2: Juice me up.
- 3:03:29Speaker 5: Let's fucking juice me up.
- 3:03:31Speaker 2: Let's give a round of applause for Chase Daniel. Thank
