  Speaker 3: really want to you know, you don't want to shell out,
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: and you try to make a profit when you're flipping
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: a house. I don't mess with plumbing. I don't mess
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: with plumbing. That's not bad that that's an expert thing.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: I'm talking about, like installing like a new half bath. Okay, right,
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: I'm sure, but yeah, I.
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: Can do all the I'll work with wood, I'll do
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: all these things. I'm not installing plumbing. No, Yeah, that's
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: for the experts that attach yeah leg together. Yeah, and
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: that's how you ended up with like a flooded yard.
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: Probably pryly while you're getting those new drains French trains, French.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: Trains, Okay, spice it up.
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: Churching it up over there, dirt. I am more excited
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: about Saturday than Sunday.
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: That's for sure, no doubt, no doubt. I'm very excited
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: about Saturday. Got a big slate of college football. Now,
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: how many night games has this been for LSU. I
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: think we've only played one in the day.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: I feel like Vanderbilt was in the daytime. I think
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: that might be it. Yeah, it might be it.
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: Now you're gonna have Arkansas at homes going to be
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: in the daytime.
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: It's an early kick.
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: Now, you did that to yourself obviously with the record,
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: and then they didn't help either with their record, So
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: that one will be during the day. But it's going
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: to be like it's a great atmosphere. Alabama fans are
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: going to show up for the LSU. I've heard so
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: many people, I've seen so many clips of Alabama fans
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: being like, yeah, like we don't really like Tennessee, we
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: don't like Auburn obviously, and those are our two biggest rivals.
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: But there's something different about LSU weekend in Tuscaloosa. Sure,
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: Like there's like kind of just like respect factor. It's
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: a hate too, but it's like a respect factor. And
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: the weekend when LSU comes to town, everybody is on
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: a different level. Like I've seen like ten videos of that,
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: So I'm excited to be in the atmosphere.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: I'm a meat heead.
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: My favorite thing to do was to go on the
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: road and you make the play and you could hear
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: a pin drop in their stadium.
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: There's no better feeling. So you got that opportunity. You
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: got that opportunity to make him hurt. This is one
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: of those situations where you know, you know, I don't
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: know how the mathematics works out, but virtually you're out
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: of the playoff hopes obviously, so you can make them
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: hurt and make them real sad and make them miserable
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: and take them down with you. So it's one of
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: those deals where what a great and incredible opportunity is
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: for those kids that come together. And we've seen it.
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: We've been over to the facility, we've heard Coach Frank talk,
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: We've heard all the things coming out. Despite everything that's
• 9:18
  Speaker 4: happened with the administrative level and the government level of
• 9:22
  Speaker 4: the whole LSU situation right now, it seems like everything
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: within that building, within that football building, is pointed in
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: the right direction and the Ara pointed up and Frank
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: Wilson said it on our show the other day. I
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: don't really know what the outcome of the game is
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: going to be, but our team is going to fight,
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: and our team is gonna strain. And I love that
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: use of that word strain because it's something that you
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: have to do to be able to compete, and that
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: I think that's something that might have been lacking every
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: now and then. I'm not going to see every play.
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: I'm not going to say we've played lazy all the
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: time and we've done these different things, but I think
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: it's a little bit different. How excited did he get
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: when we asked him how practice was this week? Jake
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: and Matt y'all would have loved practice. He stopped you finish?
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: He did, and they said we were hitting. Yeah, and
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: that's something we just haven't crazy we haven't seen because
• 10:15
  Speaker 4: we haven't been at Price, but like we haven't heard
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: that they've been doing that, and so all those things
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: have come out about you know, being practiced is a
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: little bit, you know, a little bit uh different, I
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: guess if you will, But it seems like we turned
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: the corner now again that doesn't automatically put points on
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: the board. You got to execute your plays. You have
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: to call the right plays. We got a you know,
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: a new play caller, so we'll see how, you know,
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: if he can get into a rhythm, get us flow
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: gart no Smeyer. He still has not played like himself
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: all year, doesn't you know. I mean it's he's not
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: the one that's having a strain and like fight and
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: hit people like we've we've heard that. So it's one
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: of those things, like he's got to get in and
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: play better quarterback position. Now they have to put him
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: in better position. They have to call better plays, they
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: have to give him better routes, they have to give
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: him better concepts and put him and give him a
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: better opportunity to do that. But yeah, of course you
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: got to execute football plays. But I'm just excited to
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: see how those kids come together and fight.
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: To me, yeah me too. It reminds me a little bit.
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: And we talked about this yesterday. I think I don't
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: or even remember what show I talked about it on.
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: But of the twenty twenty one game, Now, you were
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: a three touchdown dog in that game and you went
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: to Alabama. Coacho who had been let go, he was
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: going to finish the year, and you went there.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: I mean Max Johnson's playing quarterback.
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: He threw a touchdown pass to Brian Thomas Junior to
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: Jack besh right.
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: And so it was that team.
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: TDP Jack besh pace for the Raiders. Oh Max, Yeah, yeah,
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: TDP had a big game. He had a costly fumble,
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: but he had a big game. And you look, you
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: threw it into the end zone. If you catch it,
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: you tie it up. Extra point would have won it.
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: And you were a three touchdown dog. And they fought hard,
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: hard in that game. They played cover zero all game.
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: They're bringing people left and right, and they had a
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: good plan in the run game.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: And you lost twenty to fourteen.
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: And again you threw it into the end zone last
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: play the game, you catch it, you know, I think
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: actually there was a penalty a holding ability.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: Well last play, but either way, you get what I'm saying.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: You get what I'm saying.
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: So like, this isn't that situation and being a three
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: touchdown dog, being a.
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: Five hundred football team.
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: You know, with with Max Sjohnson at quarterback, this is
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: a five and three football team that's underperformed. But they've
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: had some flashes, certainly defensively, and you're what is it? It's
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: a touchdown spread right at Alabama? Nine and a half
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: right now?
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: All right, so nine and a half.
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: It's not twenty one like it was last time in
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: the situation that I'm talking about. So I'm with Frank,
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: I don't know the outcome. I just wanted to look different.
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: I just wanted to look like LU football. I just
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: wanted to look like the games that we were a
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: part of, the games that we've seen so many times before,
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: where your opponent win, lose, or whatever they felt like
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: they played you two weeks from now.
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: Yep, yeah, make them feel it. LSU got to make
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: Alabama feel you tomorrow night and feel you, of course
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: on the scoreboard and your.
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: Execution, but physically physically feel you.
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: You want Alabama to wake up the next day and
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: be sore, right sore from being in a battle. And
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: I think that we've kind of missed that mentality a
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: little bit throughout the season. But look, Lsho's the team
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: the exact same roster as we started started the season,
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: exact same roster that was preseason ranked in the top ten.
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: That was when we were into SEC media days, most
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: people were choosing picking LSU to either be to win
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: or play in the championships. So the team is not
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: a different team. It's the same team that I've had
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: that played a little bit lackluster at times. The play calling,
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: the scheme, the offensive scheme that we've brought to the
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: table has been far from lackluster. It's been behind that
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: it has not been good. So I'm looking forward to
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: what could be and what we could see because the
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: potential is there, the talent is there. They just got
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: to go there with the right mindset, the right game
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: plan and execute on it. And if you do that, yeah,
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: you got a real good.
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: Chance of beating Alabama.
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah you are. I mean, there's no reason that you
• 14:35
  Speaker 4: can't beat Yet, if all things were equal, and let's
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: say we had better coaching on the offensive side of
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: the ball throughout the season, we executed better, the mentality
• 14:45
  Speaker 4: was there, or practice might have been a little bit better.
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: Whatever all those rumors that we've heard before Brian Kelly
• 14:50
  Speaker 4: was let go, there's no reason that you shouldn't be
• 14:52
  Speaker 4: as good or better of a football team as Alabama.
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: All right, get you ready for the first break of

• 19:37
  Speaker 3: ready to head to Tuscaloosa, Carrie's current will play against Alabama.
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: It's a big boost. You got one of your tackles.
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: We were wondering what that was going to look like.
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: So good news there, bad news. Wit weeks is doubtful.
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: So Frank Wilson said.
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: Last night that Witt is trying to play, but there's
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: less than a fifth chance he suits up.
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: It's not great, No, it's not great.
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: And this was the target date for Wit talking to
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: him a couple of weeks ago, like the Alabama game
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: was his all right, the bye week, I have a
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: couple of weeks. That's the game that I want to
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: get back to and just hasn't responded, Uh you know
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: to the rehab there, And let me tell you, nobody's
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: more mad about.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: It than with weeks.
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Unfortunately, this isn't one of those Zion situations. No, No,
• 20:32
  Speaker 4: we're going to see how long we could stretch this
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: minor injury. This is one of those fight like a
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: dog to get back on there and do all the
• 20:40
  Speaker 4: rehab you can want to get back out of there because
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: you could tell you can see the hurt in his
• 20:45
  Speaker 4: face when he's not when he's on the sideline, And
• 20:48
  Speaker 4: that's the way it should be when you're a competitive
• 20:49
  Speaker 4: athlete and a guy that wants to be and a
• 20:51
  Speaker 4: guy that's an undisputed leader.
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: He said, like his eyes started to like glass up
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: a little bit when I was talking with him, and
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: he wasn't going to be able to.
• 20:58
  Speaker 4: Go remember when he got kicked out of the game
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: here Florida, what he was doing on the sideline. That's
• 21:03
  Speaker 4: a man that wants to go play LSU Tiger football. Yeah.
• 21:06
  Speaker 4: So he he kind of epitomizes what everything that we
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: kind of talk about, how you want how you want
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: everybody to go and play.
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: He kind of epitomizes that. I know.
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: It's like a twenty point difference in points per game
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: with with.
• 21:17
  Speaker 4: That with I know, which is wild because like you know,
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: he's not making tackles from sideline to sideline every single play.
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: It's just the it's the emotions, right, It's the it's
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: the you know, if we look on the offensive side
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: of the ball, it's a quarterback that's calm, cool and
• 21:32
  Speaker 4: collective and you're in as confident in the huddle and
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: a guy that's stuttered in the huddle and doesn't know
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: what it's like. It just makes everybody feel a certain way.
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: And that's what a leader does. I don't care if
• 21:42
  Speaker 4: it's football. I don't care if it's if it's in
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: the in the office building, I don't care if it's
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: Tidley Winks, whatever it is.
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: Are you get out of here here? Look at us?
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: What is tilly man? I don't know, but I was
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: about to say it.
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: We're gonna look it up.
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll do it.
• 21:56
  Speaker 4: But yeah, it's just that that's what he brings to
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: the table and he can try it. And you saw
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: him on the sideline last game. Against a and m
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: like yelling and pumping everybody up on the sideline. It
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: just hits it when you got sweatpants on. Though. You know,
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: it's just not the same. Yeah, it means something, It
• 22:11
  Speaker 4: certainly means something, yeah, but it doesn't mean the same.
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: So if he can't go, certainly will be missed. If
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: he's fifty to fifty, put him in some pads though, Yeah,
• 22:22
  Speaker 4: on the sideline, Like I said, like even if they
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: even if somebody forgets and thinks he's playing and he's
• 22:30
  Speaker 4: not playing, he just looks for a second late. It
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: just hits different when you got football pants on or sweatpants.
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I hate it, man, I hate it if he's
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: not able to go. He is, without questioning, the leader
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: of your defense.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: And you know he.
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: Does make those plays sideline the sideline. He is such
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: a good rusher. He is, you know, so good in
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: the run. Blitzes as well that Blake likes to dial
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: up and total effort. Total effort, which is something that
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: should be non negotiable.
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: But we talked about it last couple of games.
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: You've had some situations where there's been some effort questions,
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: Like you don't have to worry about that with what
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: weeks So unfortunately, it doesn't sound like he's going to
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: go thought that, you know, he was going two weeks ago,
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: thought he was going to be able to be ready
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: to get back into this game. And now it's like, oh,
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: does he get back? You know, does he get back
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: this season? So unfortunate because he plays so well.
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's just you know, you start wondering about like
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: was it more serious than you thought? Was it different?
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: Like and do we really know what it is? I mean,
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: it doesn't really matter what it really is if he
• 23:34
  Speaker 4: can't get back on there. It's one of those kids
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: that you trust that he's doing every single possible thing
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: to and then some to get back on the field.
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: So certainly if he doesn't, if he's not able to play,
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: certainly we'll be missed on that defense. But you know
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: it's uh, I think it's going to see. I think
• 23:52
  Speaker 4: you're going to see even without him, I think you're
• 23:54
  Speaker 4: going to see a new mindset on the defense. I
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: think now the defense has been the bright spot of
• 23:59
  Speaker 4: this season. Now they've had bad games, but that secondary,
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: those four or five guys on the back end of
• 24:07
  Speaker 4: that defense, they also have been bringing all the energies
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: to every single game, every single play. So they're the ones,
• 24:15
  Speaker 4: in my opinion, that have picked it up in place
• 24:19
  Speaker 4: of what weeks not being there as far.
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: As at least bring the energy.
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: I don't know about their vocal leadership abilities. I don't know.
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: It might be awesome. I don't have no idea.
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: But the way they play on the field, I hope
• 24:29
  Speaker 4: rubs off on the defensive line, the linebacker. I hope
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: it rubs off on the entire team because those guys
• 24:35
  Speaker 4: fly around, those guys fight, those guys strain every single play.
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll take Halsey, Cooley, Delaye, I'll take them all.
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: I'll take them a hall, i will take all those
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: veteran guys. I'll take them in a back alley fight. Yep,
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: I can tell you that.
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: And it's going to be a really really cool matchup
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: our secondary versus that talented wide receiving corps at Alabama.
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: And now, dude, would you travel Delaane because you got
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: Bernard to Williams over there. Bernard's actually been more productive.
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: Williams is the name and the talent. Would you travel?
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: Would you just play right left when you have.
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: Two I don't believe they have. They haven't really traveled
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: Delaine this year, So I wouldn't do something you're not
• 25:22
  Speaker 4: used to unless you spent unless you spent the whole
• 25:26
  Speaker 4: bye week and a lot of practice time with him
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: playing on the other side, he hasn't really traveled. I
• 25:30
  Speaker 4: mean even I thought I saw him one play when
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: I was sitting in the bowl against A and M.
• 25:35
  Speaker 4: I thought I thought I saw him traveling with what's
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: yeah conception, I thought us on traveling there, but he wasn't.
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: He just followed him down in the bunch in motion
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: and it looked like he was playing like Nickel in
• 25:45
  Speaker 4: the slot.
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: He wasn't.
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: He was just following him from the outside of the
• 25:48
  Speaker 4: Mando man. He didn't travel with him. So I don't
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: know why you would make you know that move for
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: this game. And when you have two I mean, it's
• 25:56
  Speaker 4: not like it's a week a week link on the
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: other side, right, so I don't expect to see that.
• 26:00
  Speaker 4: But you know they I mean number one and two
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: for Alabama good good, great receivers and not not just
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: like they're one and two the number you know Jersey
• 26:07
  Speaker 4: number one and two there, So there's gonna be some
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: great I cannot wait to see that because I've enjoyed
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: watching Ty Simpson play all season long. I think he
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: makes a couple of throws. He makes a couple of
• 26:18
  Speaker 4: throws every single game that you're like, whoa boy, that's
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: that was awesome.
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: That's like next level. That's like really good at the
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: next level.
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: But you know it's not. But it's not always there,
• 26:29
  Speaker 4: Like they're they're not always getting guys open. Conceptually on offense,
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: they they do some really nice things, but then they'll have,
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: you know, two three and outs in a row, so
• 26:37
  Speaker 4: they're kind of like a little Jekyll and Hide on offense.
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: But when they're good and rolling that offensive line.
• 26:42
  Speaker 4: I mean, there's plenty of snapshots I've taken watching film
• 26:45
  Speaker 4: with them where he's sitting with a wall around him.
• 26:48
  Speaker 4: No one's within five yards up on either side, so
• 26:51
  Speaker 4: you gotta get pressure.
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: All right, We'll take a break more O t B

  Speaker 4: a tweet come by or a quote from Drew Brees
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: talking about Spencer Rattler. It was fake, it was real fake.
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: I reported it like it was real. It's so because
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: of my journalistic integrity, I wanted to get out in
• 30:04
  Speaker 4: front of it, you know what I mean. But I
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: can report that I definitely Drew Brees thinks that. Might
• 30:10
  Speaker 4: not have quoted it, might not have said it, but
• 30:12
  Speaker 4: he definitely thinks it.
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: So there you go, guys.
• 30:16
  Speaker 4: I'm not even gonna apologize because I don't even know
• 30:18
  Speaker 4: what y'all expect. Where'd you see it at? On Twitter?
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: And he took it as gospel? Well I take everything
• 30:28
  Speaker 4: as gospel in there. They had the quotation marks and
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: everything with Drew Brees' face on it.
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: Was it from a verified account at least? Mean that
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: matters on X anymore?
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah? I don't know. Yeah, it doesn't matter. You can
• 30:40
  Speaker 4: just pay for that. Yeah, that's true, pay for that
• 30:42
  Speaker 4: type of action. So he did it. Look that was
• 30:48
  Speaker 4: a big quotation mark too, and it says breaking news.
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: I can't believe you're a sentially an idiot?
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: Well, what's life anymore?
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: I got got. I don't think you might cares.
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: It's a safe I don't think anyone cares, right, But
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: I can't report that he thinks that. Okay, well, look
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: you got You know you're big jay journalists now, so
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: you want to make sure that not really at commercial break.
• 31:17
  Speaker 4: I had to go to the restroom and I was
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: looking at my phone and just saw it. So I
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: took a screenshot and then forty five seconds later I
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: read it on air. So like, what do you want
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: me to do? How do y'all get your news.
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: That old x X unless it's like Pete Zamble or somebody.
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: Wow, all right, pizza smooth talker.
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what he does for a living.
• 31:41
  Speaker 3: So yeah, preach, you're not going to have an obituary
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: for one coaching college football this year at least. Okay,
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: Luke Fickle oh coming back next year as a Wisconsin
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: head coach, got the full.
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: I believe. I believe it was audio. I believe it
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: was an interview.
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: Got the full throated endorsement from the athletic director.
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: All right, good, they're pretty good this year to t
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: Bob is them. Don't worry.
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I was thinking about that, saying this is before eight. Okay,
• 32:27
  Speaker 4: I don't know what to really think about that. They stink, right, Oh,
• 32:32
  Speaker 4: they're bad, bad, bad bad?
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: Now yeah? Right, well good, Well, it's good to have
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: the support.
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: And what you always talk about Wisconsin, you know, is
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: that team that at some point was number five in
• 32:41
  Speaker 3: the country always probably around this time, yep, and then
• 32:45
  Speaker 3: they'd end up nineteenth.
• 32:48
  Speaker 4: Maybe around this I'm this is a little late in
• 32:50
  Speaker 4: the season, a little late in the season, but before
• 32:52
  Speaker 4: Halloween they were number five in the season, you know, consistently. Yeah,
• 32:56
  Speaker 4: every year game day was hovering around their games, whether
• 32:59
  Speaker 4: it was at home or somewhere else, there was you know,
• 33:02
  Speaker 4: they have a little five minute special on game day
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: about the jump around and everything like that, because they
• 33:08
  Speaker 4: were so good.
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: Not this year, not in a while, certainly not to
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: what we've known that program to be.
• 33:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm a little surprised that he's going to keep
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: that job because folks in Wisconsin love football. Man.
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: I was about to say, I'll lean on you for
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: this conversation.
• 33:28
  Speaker 4: Like the folks was like the good people in Wisconsin
• 33:33
  Speaker 4: love their Packers and they love their Badgers, like and
• 33:37
  Speaker 4: they expect to be good. They have great facilities up there.
• 33:40
  Speaker 4: Madison is a great college town, and they expect to
• 33:46
  Speaker 4: you know, I really think they liked where they were at.
• 33:50
  Speaker 4: They were the blue collar team. Yeah, they were the
• 33:52
  Speaker 4: team that ran the ball. They were that epitome of
• 33:55
  Speaker 4: like what Big Ten football really is. That fan base
• 33:59
  Speaker 4: isn't like and they love it, and so to settle
• 34:04
  Speaker 4: for mediocrity, maybe below mediocrity yep, for this period of
• 34:10
  Speaker 4: time is a little bit surprising at me. And I
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: don't think that the fan base can be very happy
• 34:15
  Speaker 4: up there. Like they're overly nice. They are. People in
• 34:17
  Speaker 4: Wisconsin are sarcastically nice, and it seems like sarcaslic nice.
• 34:24
  Speaker 4: So like maybe they're like, well, he's a really nice
• 34:26
  Speaker 4: guy and blah blah blah, but like that at the
• 34:28
  Speaker 4: heart of it, they want to win, man, And yeah,
• 34:30
  Speaker 4: it's I enjoy college football a lot when Wisconsin the
• 34:34
  Speaker 4: Badgers are at least relevant, and they're not. They're far
• 34:36
  Speaker 4: from relevant right now.
• 34:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so to your point, I'm looking, let's go back
• 34:44
  Speaker 3: to twenty thirteen. Twenty thirteen, they finished twenty first in
• 34:48
  Speaker 3: the country, twenty fourteen, thirteenth in the country.
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: That was what Gary Anderson. Paul Chris comes in.
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: They finished twenty first, ninth, sixth, thirteenth in the country.
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: And then Paul Chris goes four and three in the
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: OVID year. I still won a Bowl game, nine and
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: four the next year, seven and six the year after that,
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: and gets fired. Okay, so he finished sixth and ninth
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: in the country. In eleventh in the country, not a
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: bad run.
• 35:14
  Speaker 4: Luke Fickle gets you in the playoffs.
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: Luke Fickle seven and six, five and seven, and then
• 35:20
  Speaker 3: this year two and.
• 35:21
  Speaker 4: Six, seven and six, five and seven, two and six. Yeah,
• 35:25
  Speaker 4: you gone, bud, And.
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: They are fifteenth in the Big ten and.
• 35:28
  Speaker 4: They are throwing the full well do you say full
• 35:30
  Speaker 4: thread support? Yeah, fully throated. Okay, that's aggressive? What what
• 35:37
  Speaker 4: just aggressive? But apparently true? I yeah, he should be fired.
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean, does a place like Wisconsin look at
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: the landscape of Auburn being open, LSU being open, Florida, Virginia, Tech, Arkansas,
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: so on and so forth, and like, would we really
• 36:07
  Speaker 3: get a guy that would be better than Luke Fickle
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: right now in this cycle? Or do we let him
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: come back for one more year the buyout would be
• 36:16
  Speaker 3: a little bit lower and just hope and pray that
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: maybe he makes a coordinator move.
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: And it's in the a d came out.
• 36:23
  Speaker 3: He's like, Oh, we're gonna have more support for him,
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: We're gonna have a better pool of money for players,
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: and blah blah blah blah blah, right, assistant coaches and
• 36:32
  Speaker 3: all these things. But some of it can be because man,
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: where would we fall in the pecking order of these
• 36:39
  Speaker 3: jobs right now that are open, not.
• 36:41
  Speaker 4: In the forefront. I don't know if they think like
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: that up there. I don't know why anybody would think
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: that about their state university and that it's a proud
• 36:49
  Speaker 4: fan base, Like their facilities up there are great, Like
• 36:53
  Speaker 4: it's not like they haven't dumped any money into that place.
• 36:56
  Speaker 4: Like Wisconsin, they got a proud tradition, they got rose balls,
• 36:59
  Speaker 4: they got like, they have the whole deal, they have
• 37:01
  Speaker 4: the whole package. They've just been they haven't been relevant
• 37:04
  Speaker 4: in multiple years. So I don't think that they would
• 37:07
  Speaker 4: sit there and look at, man, we're just in the
• 37:10
  Speaker 4: pecking order of these job openings. We're at the bottom
• 37:13
  Speaker 4: of the barrel. No, I don't think they would think
• 37:14
  Speaker 4: that at all. Now, maybe they have to look within
• 37:17
  Speaker 4: and be like, we have not given this coach the
• 37:19
  Speaker 4: support the financial stout to go to go get players. Now.
• 37:22
  Speaker 4: I don't know any of this because I don't follow
• 37:24
  Speaker 4: Wisconsin football, but like, if they're saying that and they're
• 37:27
  Speaker 4: keeping them, it's kind of telling me that they know
• 37:30
  Speaker 4: that they haven't supported the coach enough. Financially to go
• 37:33
  Speaker 4: get players or to go get the stuff with the
• 37:35
  Speaker 4: higher the coordinators that he wants that they should. So
• 37:38
  Speaker 4: they're like, all right, well, yeah, there's a losing record,
• 37:40
  Speaker 4: but it's kind of on us a little bit as well.
• 37:43
  Speaker 4: I mean, you saw what the we're the presidents there
• 37:46
  Speaker 4: of the ads at Arkansas when they fired Sam Pittman.
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: Yeahybody get every resource with to be successful.
• 37:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we fired him last week, but like guess what
• 37:53
  Speaker 4: not his fault is us. We didn't give them many resources.
• 37:56
  Speaker 4: So it kind of gives me that feeling just like
• 37:59
  Speaker 4: looking at it, Yeah, that's.
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: W's our Virginia Tech. I don't know if you've seen it,
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: but like when they made.
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: Their job available, they like put out a plan already,
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: Like they put pen to paper and they like, hey,
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: here's our plan for our next coach. Here's the money,
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: here's the resources, here's what we're going to do. Like
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: they immediately did that because that was kind of the
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: same narrative for them. So hey, and that's what makes
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: Florida and LSU and Penn State I think very attractive
• 38:26
  Speaker 3: is because obviously their status in college football, but you know,
• 38:30
  Speaker 3: from day one, the buy in and the resources and
• 38:33
  Speaker 3: the desire those are already there. Yeah, where other people
• 38:37
  Speaker 3: are saying, hand up, my bad, guys, we didn't give
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: you what you needed. And then you got others that
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: are like, we didn't either. Here's our new plan. Got
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: to pay to play, bud, Yeah, you do.
• 38:49
  Speaker 4: Got to pay to play in this day and age
• 38:51
  Speaker 4: in college football.
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: And you also have to when you spend money, spend
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: it wisely. Right. No position group can have.
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: You know, twenty five thirty percent of your allotted money.
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: You got to spread it in the right way. And
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: that's why you hire gms. That's why you hire personnel.
• 39:16
  Speaker 3: It's like any team in professional sports, which now is
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: what we're talking about in college sports. Yeah, I got
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: nine guys at receiver, at nine of them. Oh that's cool,
• 39:28
  Speaker 3: it's great. How many are you gonna play? Probably three
• 39:30
  Speaker 3: at a time, right, but you got nine. What about
• 39:34
  Speaker 3: offensive linemen? I mean those you got?
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: Ah, you got kind of six, maybe seven at most.
• 39:41
  Speaker 4: Yep. Yeah, you're gonna start seeing the the gms of
• 39:46
  Speaker 4: college football at each place. You're gonna start seeing them
• 39:49
  Speaker 4: losing their jobs when the money's not spending correctly. You're
• 39:51
  Speaker 4: not really seeing it a lot. But in the NFL,
• 39:53
  Speaker 4: you have gms lose their job all the time, right, Yeah,
• 39:55
  Speaker 4: So you're gonna see gms being on the hot seat
• 39:58
  Speaker 4: a lot more going forward, specially if they're dedicated to
• 40:02
  Speaker 4: that position and they're the person that is making the moves,
• 40:05
  Speaker 4: because I'm sure in a lot of these places they're
• 40:07
  Speaker 4: still trying to figure out the hierarchy between the head,
• 40:09
  Speaker 4: the head coach, the AD, the GM of all these
• 40:15
  Speaker 4: different college is it called GM, it's just so they're
• 40:20
  Speaker 4: trying to figure out that peccing order, that hierarchy, who's
• 40:23
  Speaker 4: making what decision. I'm sure every little college is going
• 40:25
  Speaker 4: to be a little bit different. But like when people
• 40:27
  Speaker 4: start realizing though the GM's involved and in charge of
• 40:30
  Speaker 4: scouting and bringing these guys in and making these moves
• 40:33
  Speaker 4: and negotiating these contracts and all this stuff, like they're
• 40:35
  Speaker 4: going to start losing their jobs because the roster isn't
• 40:38
  Speaker 4: good or money that you get from from boosters or
• 40:40
  Speaker 4: donors or the NIL or the REV share or wherever
• 40:43
  Speaker 4: that money comes from. When that is being spent poorly
• 40:47
  Speaker 4: and you're not getting the results, those guys are going
• 40:49
  Speaker 4: to start going before head coaches.
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: Sometimes that's a great point.
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: I think you there better be some pressure on some
• 40:55
  Speaker 3: of these gms if you're building the roster and if
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: you've got to deficiencies because you overloaded one position and
• 41:02
  Speaker 3: didn't pay enough attention to the other and you have
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: an injury or.
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: Two, that's going to fall on you, just like it
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: does in the National football.
• 41:08
  Speaker 4: Because I think to this point it's falling on the
• 41:09
  Speaker 4: head coach, right that's the biggest thing that's falling on
• 41:13
  Speaker 4: the head coach right now. But it's gone that that
• 41:16
  Speaker 4: pressure and that responsibility is going to start falling to
• 41:18
  Speaker 4: someone else.
• 41:18
  Speaker 3: All Right, more OTB when we come back here live
• 41:20
  Speaker 3: from Rouses on Burbacon.
• 41:21

• 43:15
  Speaker 4: I got an interesting comment here in the chat. Somebody said,
• 43:20
  Speaker 4: if Nuss is available in the third round of the Saints,
• 43:23
  Speaker 4: look at him. And Nuss is not a third round
• 43:28
  Speaker 4: guy right now. The way he's played up to this
• 43:31
  Speaker 4: point in the year, the way that offense is produced
• 43:34
  Speaker 4: around him, I think he's kind of This has been
• 43:38
  Speaker 4: a pretty detrimental year up to this point for Nuss's
• 43:41
  Speaker 4: draft stock, I think.
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: So.
• 43:42
  Speaker 4: I don't think he has a third round grade probably
• 43:45
  Speaker 4: right now. I don't know what type of grade he
• 43:47
  Speaker 4: has what other people are talking about, but like I don't.
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: I don't see that right now.
• 43:53
  Speaker 4: Now he's got the opportunity here, fresh fresh coordinator, fresh
• 43:56
  Speaker 4: start mid season, to get back to the old form. Now,
• 43:59
  Speaker 4: the old form Nuss.
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: How do I say, how much will they go back
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: and watch a year ago?
• 44:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but you can't unsee some of the things that
• 44:05
  Speaker 4: you're seeing, right, But you also can't unsee what you
• 44:07
  Speaker 4: saw last year and every time every other time he's
• 44:10
  Speaker 4: come in and played. Now he played as a first
• 44:13
  Speaker 4: second rounder last year. Yeah, Now this year you look
• 44:18
  Speaker 4: at the body of work and if you forgot, like
• 44:20
  Speaker 4: he probably hasn't played like a doesn't have a draft
• 44:24
  Speaker 4: grade right now, like up to this point for just
• 44:26
  Speaker 4: this year. So there's a balance there that you have
• 44:29
  Speaker 4: to look at. But you also have to I mean,
• 44:31
  Speaker 4: there's a recency bias on everything like what have you
• 44:34
  Speaker 4: done for me lately type situation. But he's got an
• 44:36
  Speaker 4: opportunity to get back to that form, So I hope
• 44:39
  Speaker 4: he does. I love the kid, and I've been you know,
• 44:42
  Speaker 4: I think we all know that I've been one of
• 44:43
  Speaker 4: the biggest supporters of him, So I don't like saying that.
• 44:47
  Speaker 4: But if I'm just looking at it from an objective perspective,
• 44:51
  Speaker 4: not a fan of Garrett Destmeyer, he hasn't played like
• 44:54
  Speaker 4: a draft pick this year so far.
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he'll have an opportunity.
