• 2:02
  Speaker 1: out of today was one Daniel Jones. After getting paid
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: all of that money, Daniel Jones is now out as
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: the starting quarterback for the New York Football Giants. Let's
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: hit it. Number seven cut number seven, Daniel Jones. He
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: is no longer the quarterback for the Giants. This was
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: his goodbye press conference.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: Let's see, the opportunity to play for the New York
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: Giants was truly a dream come true, and I'm extremely
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: grateful to the Mare and Tish families for the chance
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: to play here. The Giants are truly a first class organization,
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: and I have nothing but genuine respect and appreciation for
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: the people who have built it and who helped carry
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: on that tradition. I've met so many special people and
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: creative relationships that will truly last a lifetime. Thank you
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: to all my teammates, coaches, and staff. They've done so
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: much for me these past six years. There have been
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: some great times, but of course we all wish there
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: have been more of those. I take full responsibility for
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: my part and not bringing more wins. No one wanted
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: to win those win more games worse than me, and
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: I gave everything I had on the field and in
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: my preparation. Of course, this season has been disappointing for all,
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: and of course I wish I could have done more.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: I'm one hundred percent accountable for my part. I did
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: not play well. I did not play well enough, consistently
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: enough to help the team get the results. The reality
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: of the NFL is it's hard to win games and
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: requires consistent performance from everyone involved. We didn't do that
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: well enough, so the idea to change something happens. And
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: I understand. I love the game, i love being part
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: of a team. I'm excited for the next opportunity and
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: know that there's a lot of good football in front
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: of me, and I'm excited about that.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: Dale Jones will go down as one of the worst
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: quarterbacks in New York Giants' history. The move ends a
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: six year run. He was a number six overall pick
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen. He finishes with an the abysmal record
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: of twenty two forty four and one seventy touchdown to
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: go along with his forty seven interceptions. Now this all
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: comes after the Giants society to bench Daniel Jones today
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: or I should say correction this week Monday, in favor
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: of Tommy DeVito. That should have been the writing on
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: the wall that we knew that this was going to
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: be the end of Daniel Jones. To put a cherry
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: on top. However, we saw Daniel Jones yesterday playing safety
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: for the scout team. That is right, you had your
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: number four string quarterback playing safety on the scout team.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: That tells you all you need to know. Now the
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: real question becomes, where does he go from here? I
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: was very much hoping that we would get the funniest
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: result on Thursday Night Football, when we could have Cooper
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: Rush versus Daniel Jones in a Thanksgiving game, when everybody's
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: supposably tuned in for the game, that we could end
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: up seeing Daniel Jones on primetime. Not the case. He's
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: now cut from the Giants. So now the second funniest
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: thing could happen. The Dallas Cowboy have made a lot
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: of head scratching moves in their time. This would be
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: the funniest move they could possibly make, which is signing
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: Daniel Jones. But if they were to do that, it
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: would cost some team, could be the Cowboys, could be
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: somebody else. It would cost them twelve million dollars to
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: have him for the remainder of the season. If you remember,
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: he signed a four year contract back in twenty twenty
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: three for sixty million dollars. I always said the best
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: job possible is to be a disgraced former college football coach,
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: because you get the payout and you get to kind
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: of do whatever you want to do. Dane Jones might
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: have the second best job now because he doesn't have
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: to go get hit, he doesn't have to go to practice,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: doesn't have to learn a playbook. He's gonna get paid
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: millions of dollars to essentially just hang out. And a
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: lot of people were kind of throwing some dirt on
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: Dale Jones's name. ESPN made their joke. Steve they Spent
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: had his jokes. They said that the entire press conference
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: could have taken sixty seconds. Hey, guys, already, I got
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: paid all that money and stunk it up. I went
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: through and I looked who is the worst quarterback in
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: Giants' history. I've looked high, I've looked low. It's not
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: Scott Berner, who is Phil Simms backup in eighty two
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: and eighty three who threw eleven interceptions in six starts.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: It might be Craig Morton, who played a few games
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: for the Giants ended up throwing twenty touchdowns with thirty
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: six interceptions. I'm still gonna go on a limb and say,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Eli Manning. I made the case for him to go
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: into the Hall of Fame yesterday as a first ballot
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: Hall of Famer because of all of the incredible moments
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: he brought to the city of New York with a
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: helmet catch and knocking off the Pats and everything else.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: Those last couple of seasons were abysmal to watch, all right.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: So Texas men's basketball yesterday they take on Syracuse. They
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: had a big one in that game. Trey Johnson led
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: the way for the Longhorns and scoring sixteen points along
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: with Arthur Kuma, who had sixteen as well. Kuma had
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: better game, sixteen points on six to eleven shooting, but
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: the story turned her into Tramian Mark, who we did
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: not know if he was going to play or not,
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: if he was going to get his first games under
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: his belt as a Longhorn, and he did. He got
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: his first shot up yesterday, cut eleven. This is his
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: first bucket. Craig Way on the call to Julian Larry
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: back to glooma double team to John Tremont Mark. His
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: first shot is a long horn is a three pointer,
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: and Tremon Mark berries the three. Now. Mark didn't play
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: a lot less yesterday, finished with six points, two to
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: five shooting from the field in nineteen minutes of action,
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: but The big takeaway from this game was the way
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: that the Longhorns were able to rebound the basketball twenty
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: seven total. Yeah, well, let's see thirty five total rebounds
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: in this game out rebound Syracuse that had a larger,
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: more dominating presence down low. Now, I thought, and a
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: lot of people thought, I think that Texas and Texas
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: Tech could end up playing each other tonight in the
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Legends Classic. Not the case. Saint Joseph's barely knocks off
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: Texas Tech yesterday seventy eight to seventy seven. So that
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: is the team that Texas will be facing off tonight,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: eight thirty pre am tip, eight pm pre game right
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: here on Sports Radio AM thirteen hundred The Zone. So
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: we'll be curious to see how that one goes from
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: the Barclays Center. It should be a pretty good one.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: I'm hoping that it's a good one, at least because
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: Craig Way has been living it up in New York City.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: We'll talk to him in about an hour. Coming up
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: next Longhorn Weekly with Coach Sark. We have a great
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: interview that Roger Wallas was able to get yesterday previewing
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: the Kentucky game. This Saturday. You're not going to miss it.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: We're gonna come back with more in a moment. Andrew
