Speaker 1: Willy Wednesday, Thanks for being with us. This portion program
0:44
Speaker 1: brought to you by Radiant Dentistry. We're gonna hear from
0:48
Speaker 1: Coach elco On coming up here in a few minutes

Speaker 1: Mallory is here in the back half of the second hour.
0:58
Speaker 1: The nc DOUBLEA Administrative Committee has approved two significant changes
1:06
Speaker 1: to the transfer portal today. There's a window in twenty
1:13
Speaker 1: twenty six that'll run for two weeks from January second
1:16
Speaker 1: to the sixteenth. The twelve team playoff, of course, runs
1:21
Speaker 1: deep into January. Players who play that will have an
1:25
Speaker 1: opportunity to start the transfer process during a five day
1:29
Speaker 1: period starting the day after the final championship game. The
1:36
Speaker 1: second pertains to transfer exceptions granted to players after coaching changes.
1:42
Speaker 1: The exception now allows players to enter the transfer portal
1:46
Speaker 1: during a thirty day window that opens a day after
1:48
Speaker 1: the coach leaves or is fired. The committee approved a
1:51
Speaker 1: new format, however, it's shortened to fifteen days and begins
1:56
Speaker 1: five days after a new coach is hired. That will
2:02
Speaker 1: crack down, I think on some of the transferring. They
2:09
Speaker 1: also the NCUBA has been busy, and when they've been busy,
2:13
Speaker 1: that's never a great thing. Usually. They've removed its prohibition
2:18
Speaker 1: against gambling on professional sports. In other words, they've told
2:24
Speaker 1: their nc double A athletes, boys, girls, bet them up, NFL, NBA,
2:32
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball, NHL horse racing go ahead. The prohibition
2:39
Speaker 1: against betting on college sports and sharing information remains in place.
2:44
Speaker 1: Good luck. The rule change picked up crucial support from
2:49
Speaker 1: the Student Athlete Advisory Committee. I bet it, did you
2:53
Speaker 1: know who? Else supported this change. Every gambling draft pick
3:01
Speaker 1: organization that televises on TV. Have you noticed all of those?
3:07
Speaker 1: I know you have. The Stanford football program got fifty
3:13
Speaker 1: million dollars today from a former player. It's the biggest
3:18
Speaker 1: individual gift in Stanford football history. The donation comes from
3:26
Speaker 1: former Stanford football player Bradford Freeman, who graduated from the
3:31
Speaker 1: school in nineteen sixty four, so he would be in
3:37
Speaker 1: his eighties. He's been a major Stanford donor for decades.
3:43
Speaker 1: He's not happy that Stanford has won twelve games in
3:49
Speaker 1: the four previous seasons and is two to three this season.
3:56
Speaker 1: The Bill Belichick era has been pretty may According to
4:01
Speaker 1: a new report from WRAL, Parents and players are growing
4:06
Speaker 1: frustrated by nepotism, preferential treatment of transfers, and overall lack
4:12
Speaker 1: of culture, calling it an unstructured mess at a complete disaster.
4:18
Speaker 1: WRAL revealing a few interesting notes. Quote it's all starting
4:26
Speaker 1: at the top and the boys are being affected, said
4:29
Speaker 1: one parent. I don't fault the players. I fought the
4:32
Speaker 1: leadership that created this toxic, toxic environment. There's an individualistic mindset.
4:38
Speaker 1: The boys are young, they're feeding into it. Steve Belichick,
4:43
Speaker 1: the defensive coordinator. By the way, they've given up seventy
4:47
Speaker 1: two points the last two weeks. Is not great communicating.
4:51
Speaker 1: According to the parents, he has not talked or had
4:53
Speaker 1: a conversation with most of the guys on defense. They
4:56
Speaker 1: don't even have his phone number. Not great. Now, playoff
5:03
Speaker 1: baseball is going on, and former Aggie pitcher Bryce Miller
5:09
Speaker 1: was nasty for the first four plus innings. He gave
5:14
Speaker 1: up a run in the fifth and they pulled Bryce
5:18
Speaker 1: with a three to one Mariners lead over the Tigers. Well,
5:23
Speaker 1: the reliever came in and promptly gave up two runs.
5:28
Speaker 1: So three to three sixth inning right now, Oh, there's
5:35
Speaker 1: another game on. Would you find Brewers and Cubs real quick, Caleb,
5:39
Speaker 1: it's like one maybe one pick away. Oh, it hasn't
5:44
Speaker 1: started yet. Okay, never mind, okay, never mind, hasn't started yet.
5:49
Speaker 1: We've got Mariners, Tigers, and then Brewers, Cubs, then Blue
5:53
Speaker 1: Jays Yankees.
5:55
Speaker 4: That was.
5:57
Speaker 1: I don't want to call it fine. I don't care
5:59
Speaker 1: what if it's the Yankees or Blue Jays. I don't
6:02
Speaker 1: have a dog in that fight. By watching Aaron Judge
6:05
Speaker 1: hit that's pretty fun. And the Phillies and the Dodgers.
6:10
Speaker 1: The Dodgers can end it tonight. They're up to games
6:14
Speaker 1: to none. The Blue Jays can end it tonight. They're
6:18
Speaker 1: up to one. The Brewers can end it tonight. They're
6:22
Speaker 1: up to oh and the Mariners. If they can take
6:26
Speaker 1: down the Tigers, they would advance as well. Charlton State
6:31
Speaker 1: has reinstated men's basketball coach Billy Gillespie, three days after
6:37
Speaker 1: they announced the former Aggie coach had been placed on
6:40
Speaker 1: temporary administrative leave following an anonymous complaint. The school's athletic
6:47
Speaker 1: director said in a statement they thanked A and M
6:52
Speaker 1: system for working expeditionally in addressing the complaint. The school
6:58
Speaker 1: announced to leave on Friday, has not revealed any details.
7:05
Speaker 1: So Billy Clyde is back on the bench for the
7:11
Speaker 1: fighting Tarlton States of Steifenberg, Texas. And that's what we
7:17
Speaker 1: used to call it in high school. By the way,
7:22

Speaker 6: Defending Cup Series champion Joey Logano is on and.
9:29
Speaker 7: If you recall last year, he was eliminated from the playoffs,
9:32
Speaker 7: only to be put back in because of a technical
9:35
Speaker 7: issue with another car. He ended up winning the championship,
9:39
Speaker 7: and he recalls the emotions of that day.
9:42
Speaker 3: I'm mar I remember the emotions leaving the track. I
9:44
Speaker 3: was bummed, right like, well, on one hand, we did
9:46
Speaker 3: really good here last year, so I was proud of
9:48
Speaker 3: the effort that we gave. I was bummed that we
9:50
Speaker 3: were just a little short. But it is what it is,
9:52
Speaker 3: right Like, That's kind of like how I wentin the race, like, oh,
9:54
Speaker 3: this is what it is. I can't change it now,
9:56
Speaker 3: and you just got to keep looking out the windshield.
9:58
Speaker 8: And we went home, go home.
10:00
Speaker 3: We just had a fairly normal evening and then I
10:03
Speaker 3: got a call and I was like, hey, honey, ain't
10:05
Speaker 3: gonna believe it.
10:06
Speaker 9: We're back in.
10:09
Speaker 3: And obviously that the next seven days after that changed everything,
10:12
Speaker 3: right because we went from out to into winning Vegas
10:15
Speaker 3: and in the Championship four and winning our third title.
10:18
Speaker 6: So just a quick turn of events. But that's NASCAR
10:22
Speaker 6: racing for you, right.
10:23
Speaker 3: I mean, it's unpredictable. Things can change really really fast,
10:26
Speaker 3: so you just got to keep rolling with it.
10:27
Speaker 7: Oh and Joey built a racetrack at his house.
10:30
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a lot of good perks of being a
10:31
Speaker 3: race car driver, but one of the coolest things if
10:34
Speaker 3: you do is long enough you can afford to build
10:36
Speaker 3: your own racetrack. It's pretty freaking cool. It's like the
10:38
Speaker 3: coolest thing in the world. It's like, as a child,
10:40
Speaker 3: that's all you wanted is to be able to walk
10:42
Speaker 3: out your front door and jump in your go cart
10:44
Speaker 3: or you or your four wheeler and have some fun.
10:47
Speaker 3: It's like every little boys dream. So yeah, built a
10:51
Speaker 3: racetrack and it's awesome. This is the final app.
10:56
Speaker 10: My perfect day sand salt water in France. But my

Speaker 1: Next Tuesday, I'm going to be joined by author David Fleming.
12:41
Speaker 1: The book is called A Big Mess in Texas, The Incredible,
12:46
Speaker 1: untold True story of the nineteen fifty two Dallas Texans,
12:52
Speaker 1: the most dysfunctional team in the craziest season in NFL history.
12:57
Speaker 1: I gotta be honest with you. I grew up in Dallas.
13:00
Speaker 1: I went to see the Texans of the AFL before
13:04
Speaker 1: they moved to Kansas City to become the Chiefs. I
13:08
Speaker 1: was one of the few in the Cotton Bowl watching
13:10
Speaker 1: them play. I did not know there was an NFL
13:15
Speaker 1: team for one year in Dallas called the Texans in
13:20
Speaker 1: nineteen fifty two. I don't find many things that I
13:24
Speaker 1: can say well before I was born, but this is
13:27
Speaker 1: one of them, and it is. It is a fascinating,
13:35
Speaker 1: crazy story, I mean crazy. I'll give you two players
13:44
Speaker 1: on this Texans team in nineteen fifty two who went
13:48
Speaker 1: on to become NFL Hall of Famers. Gino Marquetti, thought
13:55
Speaker 1: to be one of the top top defensive ends in
14:00
Speaker 1: NFL history, and fatso Ark Donovan was on that team.
14:07
Speaker 1: I know you remember him from the midder light commercials.
14:10
Speaker 1: He wrote a book called Fatso he made all of
14:13
Speaker 1: the talk show appearances after he retired. He was like
14:17
Speaker 1: the Bob Yucker of NFL players. Anyway, we'll visit with
14:23
Speaker 1: Dave Fleming next Tuesday. Can't wait to talk about this book.
14:33
Speaker 1: Is some wild, wild, wacky stuff, as Johnny Carson would say. Okay,
14:42
Speaker 1: but that's not why you're here, at least not for today.
14:45
Speaker 1: Right now, we're going to hear from Mike Elko. This
14:49
Speaker 1: is from his Monday news conference that we carry live
14:55
Speaker 1: on the Zone, which we will again Monday at one
14:58
Speaker 1: point thirty following Florida game before the Arkansas Gabe. Here's
15:02
Speaker 1: Mike Elco.
15:04
Speaker 14: How much do you think your increase involvement with the
15:07
Speaker 14: defense has and maybe in what ways has it helped
15:10
Speaker 14: defense so far?
15:11
Speaker 15: Probably not as much as you guys want to give
15:13
Speaker 15: it credit for. I think we've got a tremendous defensive staff.
15:17
Speaker 15: I think Jay does a phenomenal job. I think bringing
15:20
Speaker 15: Lyle in has just added another experienced person to kind
15:24
Speaker 15: of help.
15:24
Speaker 16: With it all.
15:25
Speaker 15: I think those guys are doing a phenomenal job of
15:28
Speaker 15: coaching the group and I think everybody wants to try.
15:31
Speaker 16: To make narratives, but this is what it is.
15:34
Speaker 15: I think those guys are phenomenal coaches.
15:38
Speaker 14: I was just going to ask about Nate and how
15:41
Speaker 14: does one even figure out that he can run the
15:43
Speaker 14: ball like that?
15:44
Speaker 16: And what led to you guys.
15:46
Speaker 14: Making that decision to kind of make him that situational guy.
15:49
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think.
15:49
Speaker 15: You know, obviously, we challenged ourselves a lot this offseason
15:53
Speaker 15: to kind of do some studies on how people run
15:57
Speaker 15: the ball, what people do to effectively run the ball
15:59
Speaker 15: in shortyard situations. You know, I love Marcel, but he's
16:03
Speaker 15: not a two hundred and fifteen pound, two hundred and
16:05
Speaker 15: twenty five pound quarterback, and so that kind of takes
16:08
Speaker 15: the quarterback sneak out of our equation a little bit.
16:12
Speaker 15: And so maybe just some different creative ways to get
16:16
Speaker 15: some bigger guys in there that can can kind of
16:19
Speaker 15: get into the wedge a little bit off of some misdirections.
16:21
Speaker 16: Maybe where that came from Patch.
16:23
Speaker 17: All the way in the back down coach, you see
16:25
Speaker 17: the run game get going really well over the last
16:28
Speaker 17: few games. How pleased are you with the execution of
16:31
Speaker 17: your offensive line?
16:32
Speaker 15: Yeah? I think really good I think, you know, the
16:35
Speaker 15: challenge that I laid out to them was stop having
16:38
Speaker 15: those two plays a game that send us backwards, you know,
16:41
Speaker 15: whether it's a penalty or a critical mistake. That's why
16:46
Speaker 15: we didn't have an offensive player of the Offensive Lineman
16:48
Speaker 15: of the Week this week. It's you know, I think
16:50
Speaker 15: each kid graded out really well. I think each kid
16:53
Speaker 15: had a really solid game. I think we created movement.
16:56
Speaker 15: We obviously ran the ball really well. I thought we
16:58
Speaker 15: protected Marcel really well. But we have high expectations for
17:02
Speaker 15: that group, and let's get rid of the two plays
17:05
Speaker 15: that each one of them had that make you pull.
17:08
Speaker 16: Your hair out.
17:08
Speaker 15: And I think if we can do that, there's probably
17:11
Speaker 15: still another level that we can get to with them
17:13
Speaker 15: and offensively, and we've.
17:15
Speaker 17: Seen Cash just have so much success on the field
17:17
Speaker 17: this year. How have you seen him take steps as
17:19
Speaker 17: a leader on that defensive line.
17:22
Speaker 15: Yeah, I think he's He's a personality guy, you know,
17:25
Speaker 15: and so he's got a really electric personality, and you know,
17:28
Speaker 15: I think he and I think I said this a
17:31
Speaker 15: little bit earlier too about him, like kids decided to
17:35
Speaker 15: come back for that last year of school, and some
17:37
Speaker 15: handle it a lot of different ways. Some guys come
17:39
Speaker 15: back and they kind of go into coast mode and
17:41
Speaker 15: the other God, I've been here, done that, I've been
17:43
Speaker 15: through the off season before, and you know, they maybe
17:46
Speaker 15: don't take the work ethic or the practice habits at
17:49
Speaker 15: the level you would like to see. He was the
17:51
Speaker 15: exact opposite, Like he has done this thing as well
17:54
Speaker 15: and as good as you could ever hope for a kid.
17:56
Speaker 15: He's changed his body, he put in a ton of
17:58
Speaker 15: work with coach Moffatt. Think he's practicing better, he's preparing better,
18:03
Speaker 15: and I think the players see that. And so as
18:06
Speaker 15: much as it is some of the conversations that I
18:08
Speaker 15: think he has from a leadership standpoint, I think it's
18:10
Speaker 15: also like an ability to point to him and say, hey,
18:13
Speaker 15: like look at him, Like here's a kid who was
18:15
Speaker 15: under recruited, started at Bowling Green and kind of look
18:18
Speaker 15: at what he's worked himself into becoming. And he's just
18:23
Speaker 15: a testimony to how he's gone about his business. And
18:25
Speaker 15: I think that, in its own way, creates a leadership
18:28
Speaker 15: value to the right second round.
18:30
Speaker 3: Olin.
18:34
Speaker 18: Micah, as you look back and evaluate Marcel over these
18:39
Speaker 18: five games, you know, what have you been pressed by
18:42
Speaker 18: the most, and you know where would you say that
18:46
Speaker 18: you look for continued growth the most.
18:49
Speaker 15: Yeah, obviously, I think you see a much more mature
18:53
Speaker 15: quarterback in his ability to sit in the pocket and
18:56
Speaker 15: deliver the football. I think it was, you know, he
19:00
Speaker 15: would tell you himself. I think that last year, at
19:02
Speaker 15: times he was too quick to run. He wasn't one
19:05
Speaker 15: hundred percent confidence, you know, progression wise where his eyes
19:08
Speaker 15: needed to go, and so he knew he was really athletic,
19:11
Speaker 15: and at times maybe he would rely on that too quickly.
19:14
Speaker 15: I think when you watch him play now, I'm not
19:17
Speaker 15: even really sure that you could evaluate him as a
19:20
Speaker 15: as a runner.
19:20
Speaker 16: He does not run a ton.
19:22
Speaker 15: He's doing a lot of his work from the pocket,
19:24
Speaker 15: which I think is really important for him for us
19:27
Speaker 15: to grow as an offense, but also for him from
19:29
Speaker 15: a health standpoint and everything that goes along with that,
19:33
Speaker 15: you know. And then just obviously the growth is you know,
19:37
Speaker 15: maybe starting a little bit cleaner. I he still gets
19:40
Speaker 15: a little bit anxious in the beginning of games, and
19:42
Speaker 15: that's where you see kind of most of his inaccuracies
19:44
Speaker 15: and you know, connecting on some of the deep balls
19:47
Speaker 15: a little bit more consistently.
19:49
Speaker 19: They in the back again, Ty here, coach, what can
19:53
Speaker 19: you say about Damon Sandford's improvement heading into the season
19:57
Speaker 19: along with the past few games, especially in the app
20:00
Speaker 19: and so of Scooby Williams.
20:01
Speaker 15: Yeah, I mean, obviously, Damien has stepped up and played
20:04
Speaker 15: two really, really big games for us as a starter
20:08
Speaker 15: at the last two weeks. He also played a really
20:09
Speaker 15: big second half for us on the road at Notre Dame.
20:12
Speaker 15: And you know, he's a kid that we have a
20:14
Speaker 15: lot of confidence in. I told the guys this this morning.
20:18
Speaker 15: It's not lost on me that our two players of
20:21
Speaker 15: the Week this week weren't necessarily starters game one. And
20:26
Speaker 15: when you talk about what it really takes to build
20:29
Speaker 15: a program, to build a program that can go the
20:31
Speaker 15: distance in this conference week in and week out, you
20:35
Speaker 15: need a lot of kids to be bought in. You're
20:36
Speaker 15: gonna need a lot of kids to be able to
20:38
Speaker 15: come in and have success. And you know, fortunately Damien
20:42
Speaker 15: was a kid who was ready when his number was called,
20:44
Speaker 15: and that won't be the last time that story comes up.
20:47
Speaker 15: And we're going to need to have guys who are
20:49
Speaker 15: capable of answering the bell.
20:51
Speaker 19: And my second question is that touring New York is
20:53
Speaker 19: close to two hundred tackles. What is going to mean
20:56
Speaker 19: to you to see him reach that plateau when he
20:58
Speaker 19: reaches it eventually.
21:00
Speaker 16: Yeah, I didn't even know that. That's good information for me.
21:04
Speaker 16: So it's a really cool it's a really cool.
21:06
Speaker 15: Milestone for him. I'm hoping hopeful, let I'm around to
21:10
Speaker 15: see him get the three hundred. To be honest with you,
21:12
Speaker 15: I think that's what he's capable of, and he's just
21:14
Speaker 15: he is. He's getting really comfortable out there in the system.
21:17
Speaker 15: He's doing a phenomenal job operating and think he's doing
21:20
Speaker 15: a really really good job with what we're asking.
21:23
Speaker 17: Coach, will stay in the back chip.
21:27
Speaker 1: Coach, what have you tried to do with Le'Veon Moss
21:30
Speaker 1: with the upset stomach, the nervous stomach? What kind of
21:34
Speaker 1: precautions if you try to take and it's just something
21:37
Speaker 1: that you will have to continue to live with.
21:40
Speaker 15: Yeah, I mean, just something we're working through with him.
21:43
Speaker 15: I don't know that there's a ton of precautions. I
21:46
Speaker 15: don't know that there's a lot of medicine for it,
21:48
Speaker 15: and just kind of working with him and something that
21:50
Speaker 15: he's fighting through.
21:52
Speaker 1: I was wondering if you could speak about the Florida
21:54
Speaker 1: offensive line. Defensively, I think most folks who watched and
21:59
Speaker 1: bought the would be pretty good defensively. As you watch
22:03
Speaker 1: your offensive wide what stands out from them?
22:07
Speaker 15: Yeah, I mean they got four or five starters back
22:09
Speaker 15: from last year. They're a really talented group. They are
22:11
Speaker 15: a really talented group last year. They've got multiple NFL
22:14
Speaker 15: draft prospects on the line. I think their left tackle
22:18
Speaker 15: is probably one of, if not the best tackles in
22:20
Speaker 15: the conference.
22:21
Speaker 16: And so they're really really talented group.
22:25
Speaker 1: Front left Robert Mike.
22:27
Speaker 20: Five games into the season, this team's approached each game
22:30
Speaker 20: when you look back to last year, they have a
22:32
Speaker 20: better eye for detail. Did they build on that last year?
22:35
Speaker 20: What about this this team's characteristics, prayer for each game?
22:40
Speaker 16: Yeah, I think we'll see a little bit.
22:41
Speaker 15: To be honest with you, I mean, you know, at
22:43
Speaker 15: this point last year, things were going really well too,
22:45
Speaker 15: and we were in the middle of a seven game
22:47
Speaker 15: winning streak and we were playing consistent and.
22:52
Speaker 16: You know, so we'll see, we'll see what this team
22:54
Speaker 16: can do better as we move forward.
22:55
Speaker 4: We'll stay front to piggybacking off some of the linebacker
22:59
Speaker 4: play they been so effective in you know, the blitzaying
23:01
Speaker 4: and getting sacks. What getting that kind of person from
23:04
Speaker 4: that group, then what does it do for the defensive
23:06
Speaker 4: unit and just kind of elevate you guys.
23:08
Speaker 15: Yeah, I think TFLs are a big part of it.
23:10
Speaker 15: I think if you look at you know, a lot
23:11
Speaker 15: of people have talked about our third down success the
23:14
Speaker 15: last two weeks. I think you know, one of the
23:16
Speaker 15: hidden stats in there is third down distance. And I think,
23:20
Speaker 15: you know, our ability to create some negative plays on
23:23
Speaker 15: first and second down, our ability to create some sacks
23:25
Speaker 15: or some pressures or some tackles for loss in the
23:27
Speaker 15: run game puts people behind the sticks and forces them
23:32
Speaker 15: into tougher third down situations. And I think as much
23:36
Speaker 15: as we've been good on third down the last two games,
23:39
Speaker 15: I also think a large part of our successes we've
23:42
Speaker 15: been very much in advantageous third down situations. And so
23:47
Speaker 15: you know, when you look at you know, whether it's
23:49
Speaker 15: Damian Sanford early in the game, you know, he gets
23:51
Speaker 15: the you know, they get a first down, he gets
23:53
Speaker 15: a sack, you know, and now all of a sudden
23:55
Speaker 15: it's second and sixteen, a second drive comes out, he
23:58
Speaker 15: gets on a blitz and he gets a TfL and
24:00
Speaker 15: it's second and sixteen, and you know, those things are
24:02
Speaker 15: hard to overcome as an offense, and so I think
24:06
Speaker 15: some of that is what you're trying to create on defense.
24:09
Speaker 15: And when you have kids who have the ability to
24:11
Speaker 15: do that, obviously it gives you a chance. You know,
24:13
Speaker 15: a team goes first and send second, six, third and
24:16
Speaker 15: two your third down percent it is just not going
24:18
Speaker 15: to nearly be what it's been for us.
24:20
Speaker 16: We'll stay on the left fourth row.
24:22
Speaker 21: Matthew, coach, you talked so much about finishing, especially with
24:25
Speaker 21: last year's team. How have you seen the players grow
24:29
Speaker 21: in their ability to finish out these games?
24:32
Speaker 16: Yeah.
24:32
Speaker 15: I just think they're becoming more and more confident. And
24:36
Speaker 15: we talk about this a lot. It's an empowering feeling
24:38
Speaker 15: to know that you have control of the outcome of things.
24:43
Speaker 15: It's also a very nervous feeling when you're not sure
24:47
Speaker 15: if you do you know what, I can do my
24:48
Speaker 15: absolute best and it might not actually work out for me.
24:52
Speaker 15: Is a really scary place to live. And I think
24:54
Speaker 15: one of the mindsets that we've really tried to instill
24:56
Speaker 15: in them, and I think they're starting to understand and
24:59
Speaker 15: embrace it is. You know you control this, you know
25:02
Speaker 15: how you play, how you prepare. I don't know what
25:08
Speaker 15: that was, but I'm just waiting to see if the
25:10
Speaker 15: ceiling collapses on us. You know how you how you prepare.
25:16
Speaker 15: You know you ultimately can put in the work. You
25:19
Speaker 15: ultimately can play the game at a level that will
25:22
Speaker 15: make you unstoppable. And I think they're starting to believe
25:25
Speaker 15: that that's real. And the more that belief comes, the
25:28
Speaker 15: more invested they become, the more work they put in,
25:31
Speaker 15: the more they're able to finish because they just have
25:34
Speaker 15: confidence that no matter how it goes, they're going to
25:37
Speaker 15: find a way at the end to get the job done.
25:39
Speaker 15: And I think that's what separates really great teams from
25:41
Speaker 15: average ones.
25:43
Speaker 21: And then piggybacking off Tony's piggyback, how has an improvement
25:48
Speaker 21: from the quarterback doo of Rix and Lee allowed the
25:50
Speaker 21: front seven to get so much pressure.
25:52
Speaker 15: Sure, yeah, when you have when you have confidence in
25:56
Speaker 15: that group to be able to play Manda Man. And
25:58
Speaker 15: let's not lose sight of what we're to do with
26:00
Speaker 15: Tyrek Chappelle at the Nickel Spot too, because we talked
26:03
Speaker 15: about how big of a deal that was when he
26:05
Speaker 15: went down last year, and then even the addition of
26:08
Speaker 15: Jordan Shaw, who stepped in the other night and played
26:11
Speaker 15: really well. I think that when you feel as though
26:15
Speaker 15: you're not worried about that group, you can maybe be
26:18
Speaker 15: a little bit more aggressive at times, or you can
26:20
Speaker 15: put those guys in a little bit more isolation at times,
26:24
Speaker 15: and that always helps what you can dial up and
26:26
Speaker 15: what you can create.
26:27
Speaker 16: I just wanted to follow up on the Nickel position.
26:29
Speaker 6: It seemed like Shaw got quite.
26:30
Speaker 16: A bit of run in the second half.
26:31
Speaker 9: Was that just by designer?
26:32
Speaker 16: Did something happen to Tyreek? A little bit of both?
26:36
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's answer. We'll see the the injury reports do
26:41
Speaker 1: out tonight, so we'll we'll see about Tyreek Chappelle. You know,
26:50
Speaker 1: talking about the cornerbacks and the and the dbs, they
26:53
Speaker 1: did a terrific job on the Auburn duo. Very good receivers,
26:59
Speaker 1: now they didn't have a quarterback could get to get
27:02
Speaker 1: them the football. But part of that, you know, it
27:06
Speaker 1: all goes together, is the pass rush as well. Part
27:09
Speaker 1: of that the quarterback's not very good. Florida has two
27:14
Speaker 1: really good receivers Wilson and Brown. Don't know about the quarterback.
27:19
Speaker 1: He has been spotty. He was good, especially in the
27:24
Speaker 1: first half against Texas. Last week he hadn't been so good,
27:27
Speaker 1: mostly also dealing with the leg injury. Don't know how
27:34
Speaker 1: mobile he will be. Don't know about his ability to
27:38
Speaker 1: get the football to those receivers. So you know, we'll
27:42
Speaker 1: see that's six o'clock start on Saturday, and all of
27:48
Speaker 1: our coverage here on the Zone starts at the three
27:54
Speaker 1: hour before mark, so three pm. Put that on the
27:58
Speaker 1: on your timer so you'll know exactly and tune in
28:04
Speaker 1: and just leave it there. In fact, there's not really
28:09
Speaker 1: any reason to ever turn off your radio to tell
28:12
Speaker 1: you the truth, whether you're in your car, you're at home,
28:15
Speaker 1: you're listening online. And I don't mention this very often,
28:19
Speaker 1: but if you missed part of the show, and I
28:21
Speaker 1: can't imagine you would, but if you do, you know,
28:24
Speaker 1: we put our shows up their entire shows. We've got
28:27

28:52
Speaker 1: for you, which is nice. Cubs Brewers one to one
28:57
Speaker 1: in the first inning, Tigers is seven to three. Wow.
29:06
Speaker 1: The Tigers. Ever since they took Bryce Miller out of
29:10
Speaker 1: the game, it has been all downhill for the Mariners.
29:15
Speaker 1: I mean all down hill for the Mariners. So is
29:24
Speaker 1: that that's two games to one, right, yeah, and Detroit's
29:29
Speaker 1: trying to stay alive and then they have to make
29:31
Speaker 1: that trip to Seattle for Game five if the Tigers
29:35
Speaker 1: hold on to this one. So we got that going
29:38
Speaker 1: on these best of five games. Man, there's there's not
29:43
Speaker 1: a lot of room for error here. They those series
29:47

34:49
Speaker 9: I'm getting count of concerned he gave up, only did
34:51
Speaker 9: two weeks?
34:52
Speaker 1: Huh? Okay, well, I think I think you believed in
34:58
Speaker 1: the first two weeks, be I did. I gave him
35:01
Speaker 1: a really good chance. And uh, you know, I will
35:04
Speaker 1: say this as well. I wrote this for the prog
35:08
Speaker 1: Pole because I had such a horrible start. I was
35:11
Speaker 1: spending zero time with my picks, and I just didn't
35:15
Speaker 1: think there was any reason. But then I start looking,
35:20
Speaker 1: and I look at how everybody's bunched up, and I
35:22
Speaker 1: look at the people in front of me, and they're
35:25
Speaker 1: all posers. None of them know anything about football, and
35:28
Speaker 1: I'm going, man, I'm not that far off at all.
35:33
Speaker 1: I'm going to start trying again. I might as well
35:35
Speaker 1: win another PROG title.
35:36
Speaker 9: Yeah.
35:37
Speaker 1: And since then, no, no, this is just this week.
35:40
Speaker 9: Oh well no, since you picked the Jets over the Cowboys.
35:44
Speaker 1: Yes, I knew the Jets are terrible.
35:47
Speaker 9: I knew that, But you also knew the Cowboys were
35:49
Speaker 9: having terrible one offensive one starting offensive lineman play.
35:53
Speaker 1: Terrible, and and.
35:58
Speaker 9: The bad Cowboy always backup offensive line was far superior
36:03
Speaker 9: to Aaron Glynn's regular.
36:05
Speaker 1: Dese Apparently that's not a very good defensive football team
36:08
Speaker 1: or a very good offensive football team.
36:09
Speaker 9: I feel sorry for Aaron Glynn.
36:11
Speaker 1: Yeah, he didn't in there it much, did he.
36:13
Speaker 9: Well, they kept talking during the Cowboy game. I know,
36:15
Speaker 9: because you weren't watching. Now we're doing something else.
36:18
Speaker 1: I was watching college football on Sunday.
36:21
Speaker 9: Yeah, okay, that this was comparable to Detroit when Dan
36:26
Speaker 9: Campbell took over Detroit.
36:29
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, they weren't very good then either, But.
36:31
Speaker 9: There's one difference. Okay, even Detroit had a quarterback. Yeah okay, yeah,
36:41
Speaker 9: Brett Stafford left handed is as good as whoever. The
36:46
Speaker 9: Jets are running.
36:47
Speaker 1: Out who was their quarterback this last week Fields justin
36:52
Speaker 1: vi Ohio State. Yeah, okay, not very good.
36:55
Speaker 9: The one that the Bears trying to sent to Pittsburgh
37:00
Speaker 9: and then Pittsburgh didn't even keep three years. He threw
37:05
Speaker 9: for two hundred after the Cowboys had a thirty point lead.
37:08
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, that doesn't count, really doesn't count.
37:13
Speaker 9: Yeah.
37:14
Speaker 1: And by the way, if you're trailing the Cowboys by
37:16
Speaker 1: thirty points, you're really not very good. No, and I
37:21
Speaker 1: will say that I didn't know this since I didn't
37:23
Speaker 1: watch the game. Did you see old Jarah give the
37:28
Speaker 1: middle finger to the fans that the cameras didn't catch it?
37:32
Speaker 1: At least live?
37:33
Speaker 9: He was he was giving that to his fellow Cowboy fans.
37:36
Speaker 1: Correct, he said it was inadvertent.
37:39
Speaker 9: No, it wasn't, because you know what the Cowboy fans
37:40
Speaker 9: were chanting at him.
37:42
Speaker 1: I don't want it, can you say?
37:44
Speaker 9: Yes?
37:44
Speaker 1: Okay Parsons, Oh, Michael Parson's chance. Uh. And so that's
37:49
Speaker 1: why he reacted way.
37:51
Speaker 9: I believe him exactly. He is telling the truth.
37:54
Speaker 6: No, he's not.
37:55
Speaker 1: Did they wait a minute? Was his mouth moving when
37:57
Speaker 1: they interviewed him?
37:58
Speaker 9: No?
37:59
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, okay, but.
38:02
Speaker 9: No he flipped off the Cowboy fans that were yelling
38:04
Speaker 9: about Micah Parsons at him.
38:07
Speaker 1: Now, that's funny, I do like it's the truth. No,
38:11
Speaker 1: it's funny.
38:11
Speaker 9: I mean that's all Jerry gets now.
38:13
Speaker 1: Okay, by the way, you may kind of kind of
38:16
Speaker 1: like the uh GM with the Dallas Mavericks.
38:19
Speaker 9: Yes, by the way, yeah, have you watched the Landman trailer? Yes? Okay, yes,
38:25
Speaker 9: I have?
38:26
Speaker 1: Next month?
38:28
Speaker 9: Sixteenth?

Speaker 9: you'll you wait, Yeah, I don't.
38:40
Speaker 1: I don't have to see it the first first night.
38:43
Speaker 1: You know, I watched a couple of nights at Chad Powers.
38:46
Speaker 1: I normally wouldn't have done something like that.
38:48
Speaker 9: How's it?
38:50
Speaker 1: It's pretty crude. It's not great, you know, Uh, a
38:54
Speaker 1: little disappointing.
38:55
Speaker 9: Can you tell it's him?
38:57
Speaker 7: Uh?
38:57
Speaker 9: This is make up making. Make you make up pretty good.
39:00
Speaker 1: But if you'll look on Live today, Eli Manning did
39:05
Speaker 1: a take off today. He's waiting at Glynn Palace trailer
39:09
Speaker 1: dressed up as Chad Powers. Remember that's where it started
39:12
Speaker 1: with Eli being Chad Powers and I don't remember what
39:15
Speaker 1: football team he went to. Was it a college team?
39:17
Speaker 1: Was his stated?
39:18
Speaker 16: Old?
39:19
Speaker 9: Penn State?
39:19
Speaker 1: Oh is at Penn State? Okay, well he needed It's
39:23
Speaker 1: only like two and a half minutes. That's funny.
39:25

Speaker 25: The Houston Texans entered the bye week in a much
40:21
Speaker 25: better place after winning their last two games and plenty
40:23
Speaker 25: of reason for optimism, which is a welcome sight after
40:26
Speaker 25: beginning of the season zero to three with a couple
40:29
Speaker 25: of last second losses. The Texans schedule, however, does them
40:32
Speaker 25: no favors, as the first four games following the bye
40:35
Speaker 25: week are all against potential playoff contending teams. General manager
40:39
Speaker 25: Nick Cassario discussed the team's plan heading into the bye week.
40:43
Speaker 26: You know, season kind of divided up into quarters, so
40:45
Speaker 26: it kind of threw called the first quarter of the season.
40:47
Speaker 26: So the next quarter on the horizon, and then there'll
40:49
Speaker 26: be a number of games there and really like kind
40:51

45:25
Speaker 1: They've already beat Schoobol, Yes they half do.
45:28
Speaker 9: You know how hard it is to beat the school really.
45:30
Speaker 1: Really really time. Yeah. I was going to say justin Berlinder,
45:34
Speaker 1: but that probably wouldn't have been right with it.
45:36
Speaker 13: Uh.
45:37
Speaker 1: I was commenting that, man, they take these pitchers out
45:42
Speaker 1: so quickly, uh, in these games, and look, I know
45:46
Speaker 1: what's at stake. I get it's a bullpen game now
45:49
Speaker 1: and everybody's got guys throwing a hundred. But you know,
45:53
Speaker 1: they took Bryce Miller out and he was dealing right,
45:57
Speaker 1: and he allowed a run in the fifth inning, and
45:59
Speaker 1: it's with threeta nothing. He allows a run in the
46:01
Speaker 1: fifth inning, and they take him out and it's been
46:05
Speaker 1: downhill ever since. And you know, I get you know
46:10
Speaker 1: those things are it's it's easy after the fact. But still.
46:15
Speaker 9: Spear two thirds of an innings, three hits, two earned runs.
46:18
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's who they brought in.
46:19
Speaker 9: Rocardo one inning, four hits, three earned runs.
46:22
Speaker 1: They've been terrible.
46:23
Speaker 9: Vargas one inning, one hit, one run.
46:26
Speaker 1: Farcus, that's Farcas opposite George. No, it's opposite George Seinfeld. Farcas.
46:33
Speaker 9: No, it's Bumpus.
46:34
Speaker 1: No no, no, no, no, no no no, this is this
46:38
Speaker 1: is this is from Newman. He was the Newman guy Farcus. Okay,
46:45
Speaker 1: So Keith Hernandez come on man relief pitching. It's like
46:56
Speaker 1: would would would Nolan Ryan have?
46:59
Speaker 9: Sir Nolan Ryan would still or meet the manager coming down.
47:07
Speaker 9: First off, he would shake up when the pitching coach
47:09
Speaker 9: would be act like like he's gonna come. Yeah, Nolan
47:12
Speaker 9: would just send him away because Nolan then knows that
47:16
Speaker 9: he can't do anything if the manager comes out right, Okay,
47:19
Speaker 9: first off, I'm Nolan Ran. I don't need to talk
47:22
Speaker 9: to a pitching coach.
47:23
Speaker 1: Well, what do you think Bob Gibson would have done
47:26
Speaker 1: in those days.
47:26
Speaker 9: Throw the ball, as manager, Yes, he it hit.
47:30
Speaker 1: Him with a high, hard one.
47:33
Speaker 9: No, he would have in the dugout before he walked
47:35
Speaker 9: out in a in a one zero game in the
47:40
Speaker 9: bottom of the fourteenth inning, he would have gone, do
47:45
Speaker 9: not come to the mound and the leader and the
47:48
Speaker 9: manager would have said, yes, sir, mister.
47:50
Speaker 1: Gibson, exactly. It's a different day, man, it is a
47:55
Speaker 1: different day. Ferguson Jenkinson done, Ferguson Jencotts. Same thing, I mean,
48:00
Speaker 1: same thing. I you know, I was thinking about him
48:03
Speaker 1: the other day. You know, I've had the chance to
48:07
Speaker 1: see a few Hall of Fame players over the years,
48:09
Speaker 1: as have you. And and first of all, they're different,
48:14
Speaker 1: and they should be different if they're going to the
48:16
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame. You know, we've had this conversation they
48:18
Speaker 1: should be different, and and and they are different, right,
48:22
Speaker 1: And it was it was so fun to see him,
48:25
Speaker 1: and honestly, he he was still close to the prime
48:32
Speaker 1: of his career. I realized he'd pitched a lot of
48:34
Speaker 1: innings with the Cobs before he came to Texas. The
48:38
Speaker 1: man he was still so good back then, really good.
48:44
Speaker 9: So the first Astros game I ever went to My
48:49
Speaker 9: dad hated Pete Rose, so we had seats on the
48:53
Speaker 9: on the third base side so he could hackle Pete,
48:56
Speaker 9: heckle Pete. And Tom Seaver was the starter that day,
49:00
Speaker 9: and he came out another picture.
49:02
Speaker 1: Who doesn't get enough credit for out Grady was.
49:05
Speaker 9: He comes out and he's popping it, and I mean
49:07
Speaker 9: the bullpen catcher is feeling it, and Jr. Richard comes
49:11
Speaker 9: out and from the other side of the Astrodome he
49:15
Speaker 9: looks and see how hard Tom Seaver's warming up. And
49:18
Speaker 9: guess what you think you can hear? You listen to
49:22
Speaker 9: this and it sounded like a gun going off every
49:25
Speaker 9: time the ball hit the catcher's clock. But that's what
49:29
Speaker 9: I'm saying. That day, the first time I ever see
49:33
Speaker 9: a game Nastros one in fourteen. They hit two home
49:36
Speaker 9: runs in nineteen eighty in the Astrodome, which was hard
49:43
Speaker 9: to get two home runs. So I said, the scoreboard
49:46
Speaker 9: go off twice on the same day, but it went
49:49
Speaker 9: like fourteen innings. But I got to see Tom sever
49:53
Speaker 9: versus Jr. Richard. I mean, I'm watching a bullpen game
49:58
Speaker 9: by Tampa Verse. This is some other guy. Yeah, and
50:03
Speaker 9: what are you getting out of that?
50:04
Speaker 1: Yeah?
50:06
Speaker 9: When you're throwing one hundred miles an how you're throwing
50:08
Speaker 9: harder than Tom Seaver and J. R. Richard pitched.
50:12
Speaker 1: Yes, but you're only but you're only SI witched. Yeah,
50:17
Speaker 1: and they're only throwing thirty pitches. Yes, they're in for
50:20
Speaker 1: an inning and if if, if they do okay in
50:23
Speaker 1: the in that inning, they may they may come in
50:26
Speaker 1: for for two innings. And after two innings it's like,
50:29
Speaker 1: let's let's go to the bullpen again. And I don't
50:32
Speaker 1: I don't like that. I think we miss out on greatness. Uh,
50:39
Speaker 1: you mentioned Scooball is going to be throwing Game five,
50:42
Speaker 1: and you know there's greatness there. They will leave him
50:47
Speaker 1: out there they did the other night because he can,
50:51
Speaker 1: by the way, throw one hundred or more pitches, which
50:54
Speaker 1: apparently no manager anymore once any pitcher throwing one hundred pitches.
50:59
Speaker 1: That's because the magic bullet. For some reason, back when
51:04
Speaker 1: Nolan Ryan was throwing two hundred and forty five pitches
51:07
Speaker 1: whatever it was.
51:07
Speaker 9: Two thirty five. It was the second of his three
51:10
Speaker 9: to nineteen strikeout performances in nineteen seventy four three hundred
51:15
Speaker 9: and sixty seven strikeouts sixteen lesson he had in the
51:19
Speaker 9: seventy three season. Nolan finished with a no decision and
51:25
Speaker 9: didn't even go The most innings for a pitcher that day,
51:29
Speaker 9: Louis Tiant went fourteen in the thirds, remember that, before
51:33
Speaker 9: serning Denny Door's walk off double on the bottom of
51:35
Speaker 9: the fifteenth. So fourteen innings, Nolan Ryan two hundred and
51:41
Speaker 9: thirty five pitches. Okay, yeah, fifty eight batters, ten of
51:49
Speaker 9: them walked because that's before Nolan could could land the curveball. Yeah,
51:53
Speaker 9: on the days he had it, he was the greatest
51:57
Speaker 9: pitcher anyone had ever seen.
51:58
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was unheittable. So do you remember the old
52:02
Speaker 1: remember the ABC Games of the Week at night with
52:05
Speaker 1: Howard Cosell, Monday Night based Monday Night Baseball, and they
52:10
Speaker 1: were I remember a game from Anaheim, and of course
52:13
Speaker 1: Nolan was pitching. That's why they did that game. They
52:16
Speaker 1: were doing the age because they weren't Yeah, they weren't
52:19
Speaker 1: any good either, but it was it was the Shadows
52:24
Speaker 1: in California. They're two hours earlier, right, and they were
52:27
Speaker 1: already they're building it up as well they should, because
52:30
Speaker 1: every time he pitched back then, there was a possibility
52:33
Speaker 1: he's going to throw a no hitter every time out. Okay,
52:37
Speaker 1: and and you know there's Howard bloviating because he knew
52:40
Speaker 1: nothing about baseball, but he knew how to bloviate. And
52:44
Speaker 1: I just I just remember those shadows and you talk
52:47
Speaker 1: about the glove popping and that sound you know with
52:50
Speaker 1: that ball hitting the mid when when Nolan was pitching,
52:53
Speaker 1: and that had to be early seventies, Yeah, probably right,
53:01
Speaker 1: because he won with the Mets in sixty nine. Yes,
53:06
Speaker 1: and one was traded to the Angels, so early early
53:10
Speaker 1: seventies probably was that time. I still remember that. I
53:15
Speaker 1: still remember that. Okay, real quick. NC double A did
53:21
Speaker 1: stuff today that's usually I don't know that.
53:24
Speaker 9: Oh you don't know what did the NC double A
53:26
Speaker 9: do today?
53:27
Speaker 1: Okay, well hopefully it's.
53:28
Speaker 9: Well, okay, I cheat because maybe it's transfer.
53:31
Speaker 1: Portal stuff, transfer portal stuff. Okay, okay, they did the
53:34
Speaker 1: transfer portal stuff. They collapsed that, which is good, nothing
53:38
Speaker 1: wrong with that. And then they approved gambling for all
53:44
Speaker 1: n C DOUBLEA athletes. Wait what NFL, NBA, Major League Baseball, NHL,
53:51
Speaker 1: skating cars horses. They can bet on anything except for college.
53:58
Speaker 1: They bet on anything legal.
54:00
Speaker 9: Now, he just said, hey, Pete Rose can go in
54:03
Speaker 9: the Hall of Fame. We might as well change our rule.
54:05
Speaker 1: Okay, Now what I said was turn on TV Saturday
54:09
Speaker 1: morning all the way through Saturday night and count how
54:13
Speaker 1: many of these gambling sites are advertising on NC double
54:18
Speaker 1: A College football. Yeah right, I mean that's a no brainer.
54:23
