  Speaker 3: We won't say what it is, but there's potential advertisements
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: in the future for Phinney Marlowe. That would be one
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: of the greatest advertisements in the history of this radio show.
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: So fingers crossed that this comes through. This would be
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: an unbelievable thing for the radio show.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: We can't jinx it, though. No, no, no, no, no.
• 2:43

• 2:45
  Speaker 1: this one.
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: We're not.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: This needs to happen.
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: I'm not saying a word, but I just found out
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: at 5.59 of— this possibility and i won't be able
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: to sleep now.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: For a week i shouldn't have told you right before

• 2:58
  Speaker 1: until after the show i can't stop tell you about
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: i can't stop looking at fitty now either and the
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: fact that sales wants to sell fitty for this oh
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: it's amazing anyway.
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: My first my first thing was max said hey did
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: you hear about potential advertiser fitty i said why not
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: i was gonna say why not me and then you
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: said what it was and This is perfect.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: You're good with Fitty having that? Yes. We'll let that
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: play out behind the scenes, though, before we bring this
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: to the air one way or the other. But trust us,
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: it is amusing. It is definitely amusing. No doubt about it.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: I cannot believe the NFL's starting tonight. It's so weird, Bone.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: to open on a Wednesday, but I ain't complaining. We
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: got Wednesday and Thursday night games. What the hell? Let's
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: do it, man.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: I was a little thrown off this morning because there
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: was news from the Rams, Niners, Pressers, and then I realized, oh,
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: it's because they're in a different... They're in a different
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: time zone. So Aaron Donald will not play in the
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: Thursday night game. So I was like, man, that news
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: came out at a weird hour. I was awake pretty
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: late and didn't hear that. And I realized, oh, it's
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: because they're in a whole different universe over there right
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: now with the Rams and the Niners.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: I think the game tomorrow will kick off at like
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: 10.30 their time in the morning.
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right. I think it is at 10.30 a.m. Football,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: you know, pancakes and football situation. Schefter had the Donald
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: thing yesterday. But I guess what you're saying is it's
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: been officially acknowledged now?
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: Because Kyle Shanahan said that. I saw the quote where
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: Shanahan said, I thought Aaron Donald would play. I've never
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: been more excited for a guy not to play before.
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: Schefter had it yesterday. I didn't see it until this morning.
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: I was obviously very busy yesterday.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: But you're right. Shanahan's over there reacting to it. You
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: know what I mean? On a different day? Yes. You know,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: a completely weird time. So anyway, but yeah. I think
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: it's not Canales because he wouldn't be able to say,
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: it's a beautiful. He wouldn't know. It's a beautiful day.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: He would not know what day it is. Is it a,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: what is Thursday? Today's work Wednesday. Today is a beautiful
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: work Wednesday. What is Thursday?
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: It's a thrillin' chillin' Thursday on the Wes.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: And Walker Show. It was a do it to it
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: Tuesday yesterday.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: And today's a war cry Wednesday.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's how we do our days here.
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: We're gonna war cry for Francis Tiafoe, baby.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: Okay, all I wanted to know is what the Panthers,
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: what Canales calls Panther Thursday. I don't know. Is it
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: Turnover Thursday?
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: Me and Shroppy have a Thursday.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Okay, enough out of you. Fetty. Relax. Sit. Put him
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: in his crate, Bone. Put the puppy in his crate
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: over there. Be a good boy.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: Be a good boy today, Fitty. Be a good big boy.
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: That's what I thought of Murphy. Be a good big boy,
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: not a bad big boy.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: Bone, that trainer you were talking to about Murphy, any
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: way he does humans. I'm just checking. Just checking to see.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: This is a serious question. Is there anybody out there.
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: a dog walker that could take Fitty out a few
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: times a morning.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: Get his energy out.
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: Just around Moorhead Street, and he'll come back in. I
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: want him back in again.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: Let's get his energy out a little bit. All right,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: let's talk about the big news with LSU and Lane Kiffin.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: Pete Thamel is reporting, Bone, that after all this drama
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: about the NFL players and the two specifically that Lane
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: was trying to bring to LSU– um, uh, Harris and Wright, um, that, uh,
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: LSU has closed its roster at 105 players. This is
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: the final roster and he is not adding those two players.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: So after this whole thing, and here's the, here's the
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: best part of the story. Instead, they will be adding
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: cornerback Aiden Anding and defensive end Gabriel, uh, Gabriel Relaford.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: There are two returning players that are joining the roster.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: So these two poor guys were held in limbo. Their
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: spots were held in limbo and they had no idea
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: if they'd be on the team or not until finally
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: LSU and Lane Kiffin reportedly give in to the SEC
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: because that's what this is. That is 100% bone. what
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: this is, because the SEC was not going away. They
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: were not backing down. The report came out yesterday, Bone,
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: that the SEC has filed an amendment to those court
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: briefs in federal court where they filed suit against LSU
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: and Lane Kiffin specifically. And this said that they had
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: scheduled a Thursday meeting where all the members other than
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: LSU would discuss a possible vote on whether to Expel
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: LSU from the conference. It is not a coincidence, Bone,
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: that that happened during the day and late last night.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: LSU was saying, you know what? We won by 41 points.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: Maybe we don't need those guys. Maybe it's not worth it.
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: Well, when I saw that yesterday, I thought it was
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: another injunction thing where I said, oh, here we go.
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: But when I read the words to expel LSU from
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: the SEC, I said, oh, boy, howdy. We have now
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: gone to levels here where we're trying to take LSU
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: out of the conference. And hours later, you know, you
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: mentioned the word briefs there. Everyone can now adjust their
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: briefs and realize that Lane Kiffin may have been dragging
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: people along the whole time here.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, listen, he was trying to get away
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: with it.
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: If it wasn't for those meddling kids in SEC offices, right?
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: But I just think this is one that just got
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: too overwhelming. Kind of like the Texas Tech-Soresby thing, right? Where,
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: you know, the Big 12 sued Texas Tech and everybody
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: was after them. It feels like that. Where the school
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: just eventually gave in and said, man, y'all... Y'all are
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: not backing down. Y'all are serious about this, aren't you?
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: It's not worth conference expulsion, what we're doing. And I
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: don't think they would have pushed come to shove, but
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: it has led to LSU not adding those players. This
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: is final, according to Pete Thamel's report. I heard Jim
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: Phillips called Florida State yesterday and said, hey, if you
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: want to add some few players here, we wouldn't mind
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: kicking you out of the conference. I think he just
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: wanted them to add a few light bulbs, new light bulbs.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: I think that's all Jim Phillips was talking to Florida
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: State about. I do have to read this part of
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: the story from Pete Thamel, ESPN. Attorney Ryan Downton, who
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: represents the two players, Wright and Harris, told ESPN that
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: the players are considering their legal options. Of course they are.
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: No.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: Of course they are. But it's I don't know what
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: they can get legally. If I were those two fellas,
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: I think I would have my agent actually reach out
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: to NFL personnel people and say, hey, can my guys
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: please get on a practice squad? Because you started a
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: pro career, y'all. And I feel like you should try
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: for a pro career.
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we got to get the college afterlife going here
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: for some of these guys.
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: I mean, you were already in it.
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: And I get it, man. I get it that, you know,
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: it pays better. Like, if you're on the practice squad,
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: it pays better NIL. Especially at a place like LSU.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: I get it. But it's like, I mean— Move on
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: with your life.
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: Everybody move on with lives here. Everybody move on with
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: their life. I mean, go find a real job. I
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: will one day.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: No, don't ever do it, Bone. Let's keep these fake
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: jobs forever, man. If only. I mean, how long can I... No,
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to say that. I don't want to
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: curse myself here. Keep these damn fake jobs forever, Bone.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: Bag of groceries and talking sports. That's all I've done.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: We will talk about that, I'm sure, as the show
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: goes on. But I wanted to let you know that
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: at the top, there's also been a development, Bone, on
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: Clockgate in Michigan that basically... It feels to me like
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: another sign that Western Michigan got screwed. So anyway, that happened,
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: I guess, late last night, too. We'll tell you about
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: that coming up later this hour. Let's talk about the
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield deal. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Baker agree
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: to terms. on a three-year, $ 165 million deal. This pays
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: him $ 55 million a year. It makes Baker Mayfield tied
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: for the third highest paid QB in the NFL. How
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: do you view that bone as a rival fan?
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: I mean, I think it's a, as far as quarterbacks go, yeah,
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: the third highest paid in the league seems high, but
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: we know how this operates back. How long until he's
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: like the 11th highest paid quarterback in the league when
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: these things rotate through? I've said the whole way through.
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: I believe that he's a franchise guy. I don't like Baker,
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: but I respect Baker the way that he attacks the
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: game and plays the game with that style. So I
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: think he earned it. And it's a guy, Matt, that's
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: an example, and so was Darnold. And I'm not even
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: saying that because of the connection here, but just because
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: it doesn't work out right away, a lot of times
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: these quarterbacks get written off. But he's an example of
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: a guy that finally found himself, and that's the right
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: place at the right time for Baker and Tampa Bay.
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: So he's the guy that was looking like he might
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: be a bust, but certainly not anymore, right?
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: Look at this log jam. Look at this log jam
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: bone for third highest paid quarterback. Mahomes is one. Dak Prescott, two.
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: And listen to all these guys that Baker is now
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: tied with at $ 55 million a year. Joe Burrow, Josh Allen,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Jordan Love, Trevor Lawrence, and Matthew Stafford. Every one of
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: those quarterbacks plus Baker now make exactly $ 55 million a year.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: What are the odds of that? Coincidence? I think not.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: But anyway, I'm surprised Baker didn't want $ 1 higher. Or
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: the agent. I'm surprised the agent didn't want $ 1 higher.
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: Price is right style? Yeah, like they often do. But anyway, listen,
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: Tampa's better off having Baker if he stays healthy.
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: He has a playing style that leads to him getting hurt.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: So that would be the one risk I think they're taking.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: But if they went back out there and QB purgatory
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: as a Panther fan, I wanted them to go to
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: QB purgatory. I didn't want them to keep Baker. So
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: I think it's a good move to make. It is
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: interesting that it's 55 million a year and all those
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: guys are tied. It does make you wonder if Bryce
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: has his best season yet and say the Panthers go
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: back to the playoffs. Would he be close to that
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: $ 55 million a year? I mean, a lot of things
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: need to play out. I don't mean to fire up
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: the text line early this morning, but it does make
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: you wonder where Bryce would come in. But a lot
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: needs to happen before we get to that point. Brock
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: Purdy's at $ 53.
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: Million a year, so that's a guy that I always
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: look at. Hey, a guy that's a good quarterback, not
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: what I would say is a great quarterback.
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: So can Bryce.
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: You know, he's a guy that wins a lot, and
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: Bryce has to continue to evolve and have the team win.
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: But I always look at Brock Purdy's contract as something
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: where I say, well, can.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: Bryce get to maybe the level of Brock Purdy, maybe? Yeah.
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: I'm not even talking about, like, obviously the highest of
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: the high, but can he get to that level?
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: You got Hurts at $ 51 million.
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: You know, and I know he won the Super Bowl,
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: but hasn't really been that dude since then. And then
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: you have Deshaun Watson at 46 million a year. Well,
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: he's a starter now. I feel like Bryce's agent could
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: start right there. You see how sorry this guy is
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: and all the crap he's done off the field anyway.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: It's also, Mac, one of the stories.
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: Too, what that's going to we're going to see going
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: forward is that ties into all this is Lamar Jackson
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: is the 11th highest paid player in football now. He's
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: at 52. But his future, he's going to be the
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: next guy coming up soon. They've talked about, will they
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: ever move off Lamar Jackson? Because some of those guys
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: above him are not the MVP caliber players that Lamar
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: is when he's healthy. So that'll be something to watch
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: here going forward.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: And there's a ton of young guys, you know, we
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: all know about Stroud, Bo Nix, Caleb Williams, that crew too.
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: Drake May eventually. Drake May. So to your point earlier,
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: there's always quarterbacks that will be getting paid in the
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: near future and guys will get bumped down and that
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: sort of thing, unless they just all agree to join
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: the third place club. You know what I mean? Unless
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: every guy I just mentioned agrees to join this tie
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: for the third highest paid QB. If you and I
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: were tied at $ 55 million, would you be cool with that? Yeah,
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: I could do that. I would split 110 mil. I
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: wouldn't go to management and say, how are we both
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: making $ 55 million?
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: I need I need 10 more dollars than Mac does
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: for the vending machine.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: Oh, man. I mean, I'm going to buy a vending
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: machine business. Todd, that's a lot of, like, big-ass rib sandwiches.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: Is that what they call it? Or it's big-ass? Yeah,
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: the one that— you enjoyed those. Big-A-Z-Z rib. Yeah, big-ass ribs.
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: That's what it's called. But anyway, I could get a
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: lot of those. I don't know if you've noticed, Bone,
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: I have stayed away from that sort of vending machine fare.
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: I do dabble in a little breakfast sandwich in there,
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: like a Lily Jimmy Dean sandwich. like egg and cheese
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: but like i have stayed away from that shenanigans for
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: a long time i might be a.
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: Bit reformed i just realized that usually it's me and
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: fitty walk down there yeah you're not down there anymore
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: man The soda.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: I got my soda when I get done the show,
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: but I've got I've stopped those burgers that y'all would
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: shame me about the vending machine. I still claim the
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: vending machine burgers are good. I know I get shamed
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: for for those, but I'm telling you, I still found
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: them tasty.
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: Usually when I walk down there, I say, man, Fitty
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: Mac really chewed you out in the 6 a.m.
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: Hour today. Fitty says, yeah, he really did. Chewed my
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: ass out. Did I chew you out this morning, Finny? No,
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: I think you guys are good this morning so far.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: Kind of, though, right?
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: Oh, did you? Well, the whole puppy thing we did there. Oh, yeah.
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: But that soda bottle that he left here on Monday
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: will never be forgotten. I've never seen a man threaten
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: to place a soda bottle up a body part of
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: another human like that before. I don't think that, I
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: don't think it was that bad. Didn't he want to
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: lodge that thing up somewhere?
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: He's been a little tense this week.
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: You can tell.
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: You can tell that Max got his game face on.
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: I'm ready, dude. And I'm so our own fan base
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: is just really upset me. And I should not let
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: y'all upset me at all, but it's just, we're coming
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: off the best season in eons. And I know the
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: preseason has been pretty. I know the injuries aren't pretty, but,
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: But we will have a conversation. We will have a
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: Panther powwow, Bone, with the fans about this attitude, the negativity,
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: what's the right level of optimism given last year, the offseason,
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: and the injuries in the preseason and all that stuff.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: So we will talk about that. is injury update Wednesday
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: okay we have been hearing about Dave Canales has told
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: us for over a week now that on this day
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: we must put out the injury report and then I
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: will finally I guess have to answer your questions all
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: right what a great day about Jonathan Brooks so we
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: will get that later on today Pat Jones too I'm
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: concerned about uh as well so we'll find out uh
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: That defensive end spot bone, or outside linebacker, whatever we're
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: calling it, that edge spot is going to be going
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: against a backup tackle. Ozzie Trapillo is not going to play. Remember,
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: he's the guy with the same injury as Icky, same
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: day as him. He's not ready to go. So they
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: will have a backup in Braxton Jones at that tackle spot,
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: and that is going to be... Pat Jones, Princely, and
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: those guys. So I'd like to have– I know we
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: don't have Scorton.
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: I'd like to have Pat Jones in there. And their
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: Pro Bowl center unexpectedly retired in the offseason, too. That's
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: another new spot for the Bears. I'm sure we'll mention
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: that during the breakdown. Dave Canale says, we'll have an
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: update tomorrow on Jonathan Brooks.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: More tomorrow. I may have a– what's the old– What's
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: that hard issue? A coronary? What's the old hard thing
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: you got going on? A coronary?
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I may have a coronary. Complete 100% coronary. Is
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: that how you say it?
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: Coronary. What's a coronary?
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: That's a word you invented. It's a bonism. That's how
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: bad it is. They're going to invent a new thing
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: called a coronary. From the people that brought you Persuado.
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: Bone brings you cornery. Pretty sure cornery is something. I'll
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: look it up here during the break. When we come back,
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: we have so much college football news. The latest on
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: Clock 8 in Michigan. Juicy as hell. A big sign
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: that a 2014 playoff could be on the way. And
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: Dabo gets a little testy at his presser. And Tim
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: Albin also tries to explain the law. to the Citadel. Yes,
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: a loss to the Citadel. Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ.
• 20:12
  Speaker 6: The most glaring thing is the explosives that they had
• 20:16
  Speaker 6: on offense.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: You take away the explosives, it's.
• 20:19
  Speaker 6: A different ballgame.
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: How'd they get them?
• 20:22
  Speaker 6: You know, you can start with the tackling. And number five,
• 20:27
  Speaker 6: really good player, but we all know, hey, we're going
• 20:30
  Speaker 6: to see better as we get rolling. So we're going
• 20:35
  Speaker 6: to have to get that cleaned up. You know, pursuit angles, over-pursuing,
• 20:39
  Speaker 6: tracking the near hip, not consistent enough setting.
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: The edge on those tackles.
• 20:47
  Speaker 6: We fell down on the long pass down our sideline.
• 20:50
  Speaker 6: So we've got to get an answer on the explosives
• 20:54
  Speaker 6: for sure moving forward defensively.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: There you go. That is Tim Albin, Charlotte head coach,
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: talking about what the heck went wrong in the second
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: half defensively against the Citadel. And that is a lengthy
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: list of things. And the first half, he pointed this
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: out during his presser yesterday. First half was actually pretty good.
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: They gave it one big play, only seven points. But
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: my God, the floodgates opened in the second half of
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: that loss. And we keep saying it this week. It
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: feels cruel, Bone. what's next up. You go to the
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: next tee box and there's Ole Miss waiting for you, man. Like,
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: you think that offense could have some success against the
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: Charlotte defense? They ain't going to be any easier to tackle.
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: Look, you were in a world of hurt being Charlotte
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: against Ole Miss no matter what. That doesn't take a
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: football Einstein to figure that out. But you at least
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: want to go in there without having to answer questions
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: about the program and how bad the loss was and
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: what went wrong. I mean, it's going to be a
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: nightmare no matter what. But at least you wanted to
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: go into that nightmare feeling a little good about yourself.
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: The offense, you know, they put up some numbers. That's
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: against the Citadel. They should. But the fact you gave
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: up 43 points to the Citadel, I mean, my, that's
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: got to be, looking at my notes here, man, that's
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: got to be the Citadel's biggest win ever, right? Good try,
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: Gamecock Bone. The previous one, obviously, I didn't count. I
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: wasn't a fan of the Gamecock. That was shameless right
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: there by Gamecock Bone. Way to try to slip that
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: in there, though, baby. That was two years before I
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: arrived to Gamecock Nation, and it's been nothing but uphill since.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: I mean, I love the way he's like, we're going
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: to face better. Yeah, if Lacey decides to play this week. Now,
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: he had that knee bruise during the game, so they
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: very well might say, Lacey, just take the week off.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: But anyway, that's a tough assignment for Charlotte, and the
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: mojo is low, man, over there.
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: Play Chambliss a quarter here and say, all right, all right, Trinidad,
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: get us 31 and we'll go, we'll go rest. Cause
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: they got, they got LSU the week after this. Yeah.
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah. No doubt about it. Louisville.
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: All right. First game, LSU, third game, Charlotte, right there
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: in the middle. Oh, we call this an old trapperoo.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: Little sandwich spot, little trap game, sandwich spot, Charlotte. Do
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: want to mention, speaking of players and whether or not
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: they'll play against competition they're heavily favored against. Don't know
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: if Dylan Stewart and Jacarius Peake are going to play
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: for South Carolina against the vaunted Towson Tigers this weekend, Bone.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: But they are practicing in full.
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: So that's great news. So if they want to play
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: them this week, knock the rust off. Seems like maybe
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: they can. At the very least, Bone, week three. Is
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: week three Mississippi State? Yes, it is. And my God,
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: Kamario Taylor went off in week one.
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: They said all offseason watch out for him for a
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: not great SEC team.
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: But, man, he might be a one-man show for them.
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: I go both ways on the thought process with– Stewart
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: and Peek, get them in there, get them going a
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: little bit, but also the SEC stuff starts the next
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: week after that. So I understand if they want to
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: get them going. I understand if they don't, but I'm
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: just glad that it appears they will be ready to go.
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: Mississippi State. That's definitely good news for Gamecock fans. Good
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: news for Gamecock fans, Bone, also involves what's happening at Clemson. Oh,
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: I haven't paid attention. I've been focused on ourselves.
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: Let alone Clemson.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: I know how that rivalry works, and I know y'all
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: are enjoying the show. It's crazy, Bone, the way You
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: can't scroll through Twitter without a national TV personality going
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: in on Clemson. And Dabo added to it yesterday, Bone.
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: We've got to play. This moment went viral, and it's
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: led to more criticism for Dabo. This is him. You'll
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: hear Chapel Fowler, who is a friend of the show.
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: We have him on a lot. Scott Fowler from the
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: Observer Sun. And he's a reporter down there covering Clemson
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: for the state newspaper today. You'll hear him ask a
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: question to Dabo about how he constructed his roster and
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: is this a sign that maybe he didn't go about
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: it the right way. Listen to Dabo get all kind
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: of worked up.
• 25:11
  Speaker 7: Do you regret anything about your off-season roster construction right now?
• 25:16
  Speaker 4: Chapel, you come with all these questions. I tell you,
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: you're the gotcha guy. No, I don't. I don't, man.
• 25:23
  Speaker 4: I regret being 0-1-1 right now. I regret that.
• 25:27
  Speaker 8: But, no, we're– Can you ask me that at the
• 25:32
  Speaker 8: end of the season? You know, the season isn't over.
• 25:34
  Speaker 8: I mean, we've got one game. We've got 11 more.
• 25:36
  Speaker 8: What if we go 11-1? You promise me you'll ask
• 25:40
  Speaker 8: me that then?
• 25:40
  Speaker 6: Okay, good.
• 25:41
  Speaker 4: I'll answer it. All right?
• 25:42
  Speaker 8: But I'm not answering questions like that, you know, Chapel.
• 25:45
  Speaker 8: I know that's your role and that's in this environment,
• 25:48
  Speaker 8: you know, to be the guy that wants to create
• 25:51
  Speaker 8: all the controversy and ask the controversial questions.
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: If that's who you are, that's fine. I get it.
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: But I'll answer that at the end of the season.
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: We played one game. One game. All right? Did you
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: play football?
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: No.
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: Okay. Well, they give you 12 games. And at the
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: end of the year, you count them up. All right?
• 26:13
  Speaker 8: And, you know, that's when those type of questions are
• 26:17
  Speaker 8: fair to me. You know, not after one game. To
• 26:22
  Speaker 8: maybe the best team in the country. Maybe the best
• 26:24
  Speaker 8: team in the country.
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: All right?
• 26:28
  Speaker 8: Other people have good teams and coaches and things like that, too.
• 26:32
  Speaker 8: So I give them credit. We got 11 more games
• 26:35
  Speaker 8: to go battle. And we'll count them up.
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: Then you can ask me whatever question you want.
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: That's what Clemson fans are worried about, Dabo. There's still
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: 11 more games to go.
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: Is that good.
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: News or bad news?
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: Did you play the football route? That got a lot
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: of people worked up yesterday, that comment there.
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: Did you play the game? No, I didn't play football. Okay,
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: because there's 12 games. You mean a reporter covering Clemson
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: doesn't know how many games are on the schedule? What
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: do you have to play football for as a Ute
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: in order to know there's 12 games? I thought it
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: was a terrible look for Dabo. We'll talk about it
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: more extensively later on in the show. But I thought
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: the question is more than fair. Y'all gave up 51
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: straight points to LSU. You used to be a team
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: that looked Nick Saban's Bama in the eye and beat
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: him twice for national titles. Pardon us if we want
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: to ask how the hell you got here. You know
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: what I mean? Seriously, bro.
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: Of all the people talking Clemson dabble, I think Chapel
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: Fowler is the least. Were you talking to everybody else
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: through Chapel Fowler? Because that question there didn't really necessarily
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: warrant that response. And here's what's going on as well. Look,
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: I'm not going to sit here and say that Dabble
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: doesn't have an unbelievable resume. You mentioned it, the national titles.
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: He does.
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: But he's also told us for a long time now,
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: every chance he gets, about how great they were about
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: the resume.
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: And they were. But the fan base of.
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: Clemson, the media of Clemson, no longer wants to sit
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: there and have Dabo read off his Wikipedia page how
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: great they used to be. So now that's out there.
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: There's no more resume. That's been figured out. We know
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: what you're doing. So what's the next level here? And
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: now it's sort of lash out at the media, and
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: that's not a good sign for not only the program,
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: but where Dabo is in his state of mind right now,
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: because the resume is not working anymore. Now what's he do?
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: And the first chance he gets, he goes after a
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: reporter who asked a very benign question, by the way.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, seems a little bit sensitive. And when you get
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: like that, Bone, it's probably because you know you don't
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: have the answers, and you know you're not what you
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: used to be. And you're a little sensitive when people
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: keep bringing it up and when you've got to be
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: asked about it. And then the whole gotcha guy thing.
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: You're the gotcha guy. The way he says that, too.
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: That is going to be, Fitty, you've got to pull
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: that and isolate that. We've got to use that moving forward.
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: That could be the new Tyler. Now we got– Chappell
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: and Tyler from Spartanburg should start a podcast called Tyler
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: and the Gotcha Guy.
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: Oh, you know at some point if they– like Tyler
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: motivated this team apparently a couple years ago. There will
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: be a thing where he will say at some point, well,
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: on the field they have a big win. Now just
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: work with me here.
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: Big win. Dabo's on the field. Well, we're all them
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: gotcha guys now, baby.
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: You know what I got?
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: He'll say it after Georgia Southern.
• 29:30
  Speaker 8: You know what?
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: I got a bunch of guys here. I got my
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: gotcha guys right here. Gotcha big win, Clemson. Gotcha big win.
• 29:35
  Speaker 5: I thought the biggest issue, guys, was– and I know
• 29:38
  Speaker 5: he was being sarcastic with the gotcha at the beginning
• 29:41
  Speaker 5: of that comment, but it felt like O.K. Dabo, very jovial,
• 29:45
  Speaker 5: trying to make a joke out of a question. And
• 29:48
  Speaker 5: then by the middle of it, it became condescending. And
• 29:53
  Speaker 5: he was talking down to a reporter that was asking
• 29:56
  Speaker 5: a question that needed to be asked after the way that–
• 30:00
  Speaker 5: because when he says that other teams have good teams,
• 30:02
  Speaker 5: there's other good teams in the country.
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: Here's the problem, Dabo.
• 30:06
  Speaker 5: What's happening to your program is what your program did
• 30:09
  Speaker 5: to the sport for a decade. Where you showed up,
• 30:12
  Speaker 5: big games, big moments, and you demoralized teams.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: You used to be that team. By the way, Fitty,
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: that question had to be asked. Just like a lot
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: of those questions in Chapel Hill the day before had
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: to be asked. Completely.
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: You're trying to compare apples and oranges. I'm a gotcha guy.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: I know. I gotcha guy.
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: I know you don't know fruits very well. But one
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: is an Apple question.
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: No, it's not. One is an Orange question. It's journalists
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: doing their job. The difference is.
• 30:39
  Speaker 5: Mac, before Belichick took to the podium, his handler literally said,
• 30:44
  Speaker 5: we're not answering.
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: Or fielding any questions. Did that happen with Dabo on
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: the roster yesterday? No, it did not.
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: You still got to ask some questions, Finney. The difference
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: is you root for one team, you don't root for
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: the other. But anyway, let's move along.
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: I root for Chapel.
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: Chapel Hill or Chapel Fowler? Yes. Which one you like
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: better right now? All right, let's move along. Due to
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: time constraints. Let's move along here, kids, shall we? And
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: let's talk, Bone, about the NCAA memo that they apparently
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: sent to schools. And this one, to me, Bone, is
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: the greatest example yet of the fact that Western Michigan
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: got done wrong. They got screwed. And the NCAA recognizes this,
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: that this just isn't right. The NCAA bone sent out
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: a memo to schools saying, in the future, when you
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: have a replay situation where you need to go and
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: check the clock at the end of a game and
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: decide whether or not time needs to be put back
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: on a clock, that you should use the game clock
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: that is embedded on the program feed. And if the
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: broadcast does not have that, then you should use the
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: graphic clock on the broadcast feed. If this was done,
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: Michigan would have an L. This is the NCAA coming
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: out and basically saying, in my opinion, Bone, that we
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: cannot have conferences, officials, deciding to go off some secret
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: clock that nobody else has access to. And the clock
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: that everybody sees doesn't mean anything. You talk about something
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: that seems shady as hell to do that. So the
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: NCAA has announced that that will change Western Michigan. Now,
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: after being so nice, Bone, over the weekend? of, oh,
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: we understand. We get it. Well, now they want to
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: file an appeal. The problem is the NCAA, they don't
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: have a process for you to appeal a situation where
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: time is put back on the clock.
• 32:48
  Speaker 3: They have to schedule their appointments right now. They're very
• 32:50
  Speaker 3: busy with off-the-field stuff still. They'll get to on-the-field stuff
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: there in the off-season when they figure this whole thing out. Yeah,
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: we live in a world, not just a sports world,
• 32:59
  Speaker 3: but a general world of conspiracy theories, but this doesn't
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: help in the college football world when a power of
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: a conference gets the benefit of the doubt because we
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: know what these conference wars, Matt, that's going on specifically
• 33:15
  Speaker 3: between the SEC and the Big Ten, if one of
• 33:17
  Speaker 3: the powers takes a bad loss like that, we know
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: what that's going to mean and they get away with it.
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: It's not like.
• 33:24
  Speaker 3: you know minnesota got away with something it's it's michigan
• 33:27
  Speaker 3: and that just leads to the with something done to
• 33:30
  Speaker 3: make sure that their team still had a chance.
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: This clock that no one else can see and by
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: the way when they put out that statement and they
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: give you they show you the clock they never showed
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: the clock counting down yeah they just showed it at
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: one second show us the whole countdown the whole play
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: and what that you know secret clock looked like mike
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: perera hayley joel osment can see the Mike Pereira came
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: out and said the NFL in a situation like that
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: goes with the broadcast clock. So is this even policy
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: or did they literally make that one up, Bone, in
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: that review? Did they literally say, oh, here's a clock
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: we can use. By the way, that same clock, I
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: don't know if you saw the video that a fan took,
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: that same clock with 35 seconds left, they were synced up.
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: The game clock on the scoreboard was completely synced up
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: with the broadcast clock at 35 seconds. But then, you know,
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: you didn't have clocks synced up. By the way, for
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: the final play, it just stinks. Credit to the ACC.
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: This wouldn't happen in an ACC game because we see the.
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: transparency of what's going on on reviews. So I wonder,
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: doesn't every conference probably need to have it where we
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: can hear?
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: ACC's done a great job of allowing us the access
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: of the conversations. If that conversation was going on in
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: the Big Ten, it would be a whole lot, we
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: heard what was going on, it would be a whole
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: lot different.
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, if you could hear everything, the Big Ten shared
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: some of the audio, some of the audio, but like
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: if you could hear everything, it would help. But yes,
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: this NCAA memo makes sense. Use the clock, everybody can see.
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: Because we already don't trust college football. Point blank period.
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: We already don't trust the big conferences. We don't trust
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: college football. I don't trust the big tankers. I know
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: in the SEC this wouldn't happen this way. Clearly, clearly.
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: Shanky wouldn't be down there saying, screw the opponent. The AP,
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: by the way, the AP voters took it into their
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: own hands. They dropped Michigan from 16th to clear out
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: of the poll. So they said, I'm sorry, you lost
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: the game. You're out of the top 25. Michigan's got
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: a chance to get right back in the top 25
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: at home tomorrow. against Oklahoma, but they're going to have
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: to play a hell of a lot better. Also wanted
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: to mention this real quick, Bone. I know I've got
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: to shut up here, but the college football playoff committee
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: has triggered a 30-day negotiating window with ESPN over expansion
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: of the college football playoff. This is occurring as I
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: understand it because the SEC has said we will accept
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: the 2014 playoff If every Power Four conference plays a
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: Power Four opponent or Notre Dame, 10 games out of 12.
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: And apparently, according to Ross Dellinger and others, the Big
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: Ten said, we will do that. So it seems, Bone,
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: like this is the next step to see if ESPN
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: wants to take on the rest of the inventory. But
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: this feels like this is a step towards a 2014 playoff,
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: for better or worse.
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: Also heard that ESPN wants one of the games played
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: in Pat McAfee's Thunderdome also. They also want the trophy named.
• 36:39
  Speaker 3: The championship trophy will now be named also.
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: After Pat McAfee.
• 36:43
  Speaker 3: The Patrick F. McAfee trophy. When we come back, Panthers
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: game one depth chart is out. We'll break that down.
• 36:53
  Speaker 3: And we did it, Mac. We finally did it. We
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: have a national media member who I respect dearly, who
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: actually likes the Panthers this season.
• 37:02
  Speaker 4: Yes, sir.
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ.
• 37:32
  Speaker 9: Carolina, I'm a huge Panthers fan. Love a lot of
• 37:35
  Speaker 9: the coaching staff. I think EJ Evero, the defensive coordinator,
• 37:38
  Speaker 9: should be a head coach in the NFL. And they're
• 37:42
  Speaker 9: going to continue to.
• 37:43
  Speaker 4: You're in on Bryce.
• 37:45
  Speaker 9: Look, I like Bryce going into last year more than
• 37:47
  Speaker 9: I think a lot of people did. And he made progress. And,
• 37:51
  Speaker 9: you know, I know this is shocking you, but guys
• 37:53
  Speaker 9: can make progress. I think he'll continue to make progress
• 37:56
  Speaker 9: going into this season.
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: I love it. I love it. Eric Mangini, former NFL
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: coach in Nick Wright's dojo. Look at him in the
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: eye and say it. The Carolina Panthers are going to
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: make the playoffs and Bryce Young is going to make progress.
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: Was that a shot at Nick Wright? I hope so.
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: That little dig in there where this might shock you,
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: but guys can make progress. How about that? Was that
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: a little shot based on the way Nick Wright talked
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: about Bryce?
• 38:26
  Speaker 3: You play football, Nick Wright? Man, Jeannie coached and then
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: played it. By the way, one of the great jet
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: coaches of my era, by.
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: The way, am I right? Is that true? It might be.
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: That's sad. Please don't list the others. The Man Genius.
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: A guy nicknamed the Man Genius could not possibly be
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: wrong about the Panthers.
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: Well, yeah, he was wrong a lot, actually. He was
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: wrong a lot. I mean, he had a hell of
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: a jet run, 23 and 25.
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: Pretty good. Made the playoffs once. That's a standout for
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: a jet coach, I guess. Got completely destroyed by New England,
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: but it's fine. Oh, man. Anyway, we'll take what we
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: can get, man. A two-game under. 500 jet coach. saying
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: that we're a playoff team and Bryce is going to progress.
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: And I feel like he is too, man. I feel
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: like he is. We have that clip fit of Canales
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: talking about Bryce and the pre-snap stuff. This is interesting
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: to me. Canales has been saying this a lot, Bone,
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: during this lead up. And he was on Panther Talk
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: the other day, Panther Radio Network, and he talked about it. again,
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: that the number one noticeable improvement from Bryce young from
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: last year to this year is just how good he
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: is right now and going to be this season pre-snap.
• 39:42
  Speaker 7: Man, it's the pre-snap stuff he's doing. He's just, he
• 39:44
  Speaker 7: sees it so much more comfortably and, watching the intent
• 39:48
  Speaker 7: of the defense before the ball gets snapped. And then
• 39:52
  Speaker 7: what that does is it allows you to be quicker
• 39:54
  Speaker 7: through your progressions because if the first read is probably
• 39:58
  Speaker 7: not a good option based on what you think they're
• 40:00
  Speaker 7: going to do, you can quickly get to the second
• 40:02
  Speaker 7: and third. And so that's where I've really seen him
• 40:04
  Speaker 7: just take his game study experiences and let that come
• 40:08
  Speaker 7: alive in the practices.
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: That could be huge for him, Bone, because if you're
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: a guy who processing is one of your superpowers, right?
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: And if you're a guy that doesn't really have some
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: giant arm, and I don't know if you've heard Bone,
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: he's not very big. So you have to, the mental
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: has to be a strong point of your game. And
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: that next step probably is becoming a pre-snap wizard. where
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: you know what they're going to do, and I know where...
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: You know, like Tom Brady's so freaking good at that.
• 40:38
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, yeah.
• 40:38
  Speaker 3: Also, those second and third reads have to make the
• 40:40
  Speaker 3: plays for you. They have to make the catches. They
• 40:42
  Speaker 3: have to be options. And I think maybe that's why
• 40:46
  Speaker 3: he and Coker gelled so.
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: Well, especially at the end of last year, because... One of.
• 40:50
  Speaker 3: The problems was the defenses were focused so much on
• 40:53
  Speaker 3: TMAC that there wasn't a lot of other reads to
• 40:55
  Speaker 3: go to of guys that were trusted. If you start
• 40:57
  Speaker 3: to get more trust in the other guys, well, all
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: of a sudden, big bang, boom, you've got more options
• 41:02
  Speaker 3: out there. Also, Mackers, apparently Dr. Suave says Mangini also
• 41:07
  Speaker 3: in the NFC portion of that, he was doing his
• 41:09
  Speaker 3: own playoff picks on both sides, called the Falcons.
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: A bunch of underachievers.
• 41:14
  Speaker 3: There we go. Man, Jeannie, Jeannie, you keep talking like that.
• 41:17
  Speaker 3: You'll be on this radio program soon.
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: Shoot. Forget that. Let's do that. And then let's put
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: them in the hall of honor over a bank of
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: America stadium. And this guy is here for us when
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: we need it. Cause I don't know if y'all notice
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: nobody else, including a lot of our fans on the
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: text line seemed to like the Carolina Panthers very much
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: this season. Uh, but anyway, so I thought that was
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: interesting stuff there about Bryce. Um, it's, it's, That is
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: the type of thing where it's like he needs to
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: be great at that. Needs to be great at pre-snap,
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: great at processing, and great at anticipation. And then he
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: needs to be great at the Bama Bryce stuff. And
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: he was pretty good last year. Under pressure, he was
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: ninth in the league in PFF grade under pressure. Caleb
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: Williams gets talked about all the time, Bone, how amazing
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: he is under pressure, right? When he has to scramble
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: and make something happen, he was 10th. So, again, I'm
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: not saying the PFF grades are the end all and
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: the be all, but Caleb was 10th in grade on
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: plays where he was under pressure and Bryce was 9th.
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: So just get that in there, Bowen. Just get that
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: in there for some texters that might, you know, want
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: to send us something about Bryce.
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: One of the joys of football season is when Matt
• 42:24
  Speaker 3: goes deep into the.
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: Lab with the number. I love it. I'm in there, baby.
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: I'm in there. We're going to do a whole thing
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: on the Bears, speaking of numbers and facts and news.
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: We're going to do our first Know Your Enemy of
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: the season coming up at 7 o'clock. Those annoying Chicago— those
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: pesky Chicago Bears. Is tomorrow the day, Magger, also? A
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: little Formula Day? Tomorrow would be the Formula Day. Do
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: we bring it— do we renew it for another season, or
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: do we cancel this series? Let me ask our executive—
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: After 20-something seasons.
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: Let me ask our executive producer, are we going to
• 42:54
  Speaker 3: bring back the Formula 50?
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: Hell yeah.
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: You like the formula fitting. You don't think it's like,
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: I don't know, bad. I don't know. Is it a jinx?
• 43:03
  Speaker 4: No.
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: I think it's a great way.
• 43:05
  Speaker 5: We put a little football music behind it. We start
• 43:08
  Speaker 5: talking the X's and the O's, the Jimmy's and the Joe's.
• 43:12
  Speaker 5: It gets me ready to go out there and kick
• 43:13
  Speaker 5: some ass.
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: Finney just went Frank Garcia on us with the X's
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: and O's and the Jimmy's and Joe's.
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: I was going to say the third line, but it's
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: not appropriate for radio.
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: I just don't want to be wrong. I think I'm glad.
• 43:25
  Speaker 3: I don't want a bunch of non-football playing gotcha guys
• 43:27
  Speaker 3: to make fun of us.
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: Football playing gotcha guys. Actually, is that our text line
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: most days? I'm going to ask Brenton Buckner at 725, Buck,
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: you play football? That he's going to pick me up
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: and throw me down Moorhead Street.
• 43:40
  Speaker 5: Are we bringing back the Sir Loin pep talks on Friday?
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: Oh, hell yeah. Or do we replace him?
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: With who?
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: Well, no, we went to the playoffs with Loin, right?
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: Did you just say? Loin's got to be back.
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: You don't want Loin?
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: No, I say Loin's got to be back. I'm thinking
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: it through on the air. All right? Loin's there. Boyne
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: is in.
• 43:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: Okay. I said he's in here. I asked a question.
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: I didn't realize y'all would be so disgusted by me.
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Loyne. Hey, Boyne, you busy on Fridays? No,
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: I'm not. All right, he's in. We have to check
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: Boyne's schedule, right? Yes, very busy. I'm in town right now. Loin,
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry I just said that, man. I'm sorry I
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: just said that. No, you won't care. All right. But, Loin,
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: if you lose a couple, baby, I just want to
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: let you know.
• 44:22
  Speaker 3: We're not going to replace the guy that was at
• 44:24
  Speaker 3: the doghouse on the wrong day in the preseason.
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: That's dedication. That is dedication. Showed up at the doghouse
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: for a road preseason game. This doghouse will be rocking!
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: We're on the road. Let's talk about the depth chart bone. Again,
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: I don't know what this stuff really means, but it's
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: interesting to talk about the new debt. The week one
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: depth chart is out. Lee Hunter has moved with the
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: first team. Cam Jackson has moved down that tracks based
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: on what I saw in the final preseason game. And
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: I know Cam was going through a little injury there, too,
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: that might have affected it. But Cam Jackson was playing
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: in that game. Lee Hunter, they sat out. So I
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: noticed that. I'm like, ooh, has there been a change?
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: And sure enough, the depth chart says there's a change.
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: Darren Waller, tight end three behind Trimble and Mitchell Evans.
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: That tracks. I expect him to play. I expect Jatavian
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: Sanders not to get a helmet. And I expect Waller.
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: And the reason why it's tight end three is the
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: other two gents are going to be on the field
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: bone more.
• 45:24
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: Base downs, run blocking situations. But this dude should be
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: used and should be used, you know, as a weapon.
• 45:34
  Speaker 3: No doubt about it. No, I agree there. Does anything
• 45:38
  Speaker 3: else stand out, Mac, from the depth chart? I don't
• 45:40
  Speaker 3: really see anything that's... Oh, go ahead. Karake, a starter.
• 45:44
  Speaker 3: I mean, we knew that, right? The guys have been
• 45:45
  Speaker 3: saying that. He'd been running with the ones.
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: Jimmy Horn is the top punt returner and kick returner.
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: XL is second in both. And Chuba is third. Where's Mechie?
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: Wouldn't you think Mechie would be second in punt return
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: and kick return? Unless they're considering, I don't know, Mechie
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: maybe not active? For week one, they need someone back
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: there with them on a kick return. But it sounds
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: like it might be. So based off that, again, take
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: it with a grain of salt, but could it be
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: Horn and XL back there on the kick returns Sunday?
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: It could be.
• 46:15
  Speaker 3: I don't really want Chuba involved in that, not based
• 46:18
  Speaker 3: off of his role in the offense. He's another guy
• 46:21
  Speaker 3: that we've got to keep him out there healthy. Not
• 46:25
  Speaker 3: that he's a primary guy, but I don't know if
• 46:27
  Speaker 3: I want Chuba back there either.
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: Not now. Not at this point in his career. Yeah, well,
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: remember the whole Brooks thing, right? Where Canales basically said
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: he's going to have to beg real bad to get
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: out there. If you're not putting Brooks out there, why
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: would you put Chuba out there?
• 46:42
  Speaker 4: Exactly.
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. I don't I don't I don't sense we're
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: going to see him ever out there. But I am
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: I'm pumped to see some Jimmy Horn returns, man. I
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: like what I saw. in that aspect of the game
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: from Horn in the preseason. Absolutely.
• 46:56
