- 1:48Speaker 2: thank y'all for pulling up per the norm.
- 1:51Speaker 1: It's been a fun It's been a fun few days.
- 1:56Speaker 2: I know that you've seen probably thirty different videos or
- 1:59Speaker 2: articles or or whatnot about the Jim Knowles situation. We'll
- 2:05Speaker 2: talk about that once Koop is able to jump on. Uh,
- 2:08Speaker 2: but they got pulling up. Chout to our partners over

- 2:13Speaker 2: two thousand dollars by using promo code YouTube one fifty.
- 2:19Speaker 1: This weekend's gonna be fun.
- 2:22Speaker 2: A lot of recruits are supposed to be in if
- 2:24Speaker 2: you've been keeping up with all of the top folks,
- 2:28Speaker 2: and it appears that we'll have some oh some more
- 2:35Speaker 2: folks coming into town. And I just saw a tweet
- 2:38Speaker 2: somebody else is gonna be here this weekend. Sounds like, uh,
- 2:42Speaker 2: some big name folks are gonna be in the area. Anyway,
- 2:46Speaker 2: How are y'all doing this evening? I know y'all are all.
- 2:48Speaker 2: I see y'all in the chat getting pretty live in here.
- 2:52Speaker 2: It appears that, uh, there's a lot of conversations around this.
- 2:58Speaker 1: Let's put it this way.
- 3:00Speaker 2: Gymnopiece, of course, has been the biggest conversation out there.
- 3:04Speaker 2: I've heard very much mixed reports, and honestly, I don't
- 3:10Speaker 2: know it's gonna be honest this point, I'm waiting to
- 3:15Speaker 2: see what what else come down the line.
- 3:19Speaker 1: But the one thing I do know is it appears that.
- 3:30Speaker 2: As everyone has put things out there that Oklahoma is
- 3:33Speaker 2: legitimately going after Knowles, and I've been seeing more reports
- 3:41Speaker 2: come out now that others are also pushing for Knowles.
- 3:46Speaker 2: And it sounds like I'm wondering if Penn State's even fighting,
- 3:50Speaker 2: I mean, Ohio States fighting to keep them. Does It
- 3:52Speaker 2: sounds like Penn State's are part of it, but.
- 3:58Speaker 1: Like everybody's a part of it.
- 4:00Speaker 2: Kind of curious to see what what that actually means.
- 4:05Speaker 2: I probably will find out. We'll probably find out in
- 4:08Speaker 2: the next twenty four to forty eight hours. It doesn't
- 4:10Speaker 2: feel like it's a situation where you're not gonna hear
- 4:14Speaker 2: that that you're you're gonna hear something. It's not something
- 4:18Speaker 2: that's gonna be lingering for a very long time.
- 4:21Speaker 1: Mainly because this weekend.
- 4:23Speaker 2: Is is the is the recruiting weekend, and so because
- 4:29Speaker 2: that weekend is going down, you kind of need to
- 4:32Speaker 2: know something. It's not a situation where you can go
- 4:36Speaker 2: without so all right, the man is in coop, how's
- 4:45Speaker 2: it going man.
- 4:45Speaker 3: Yoh goo good doing good, very very very exciting week.
- 4:53Speaker 3: We are on, like I guess, month two of waiting
- 4:58Speaker 3: for something.
- 5:01Speaker 2: Yeah, all we want to do is we want to answer,
- 5:04Speaker 2: just like everybody else, we would like to get an answer.
- 5:07Speaker 2: And yeah, we saw the little the little gaff that
- 5:12Speaker 2: happened from one of the insider groups that has become
- 5:18Speaker 2: a really big article. I think Awful Announcing picked it up.
- 5:22Speaker 2: Yeah that's not good.
- 5:26Speaker 4: Yeah, and and and again it like it's just it's
- 5:30Speaker 4: it's it's I guess escalated a little bit more by
- 5:33Speaker 4: the fact that, like, like I said, I think we've
- 5:35Speaker 4: been all waiting for so long and so now like
- 5:38Speaker 4: there's frustration starting to brew.
- 5:40Speaker 3: And what's funny is if you guys are watching this
- 5:42Speaker 3: right now, or if you're watching you know, you know
- 5:45Speaker 3: tomorrow or something like that, like you're you're like not
- 5:49Speaker 3: everybody in our fan base is as tuned in as
- 5:51Speaker 3: like you guys are, and so like we're hanging on
- 5:55Speaker 3: this every moment because we were frustrated, So like, who's
- 5:57Speaker 3: going to get fired during the season And as soon
- 5:59Speaker 3: as uh as soon as Latrow gets fired, then you're like,
- 6:03Speaker 3: all right, now, what's going to happen. Are we going
- 6:05Speaker 3: to get good again? And then you know that happens,
- 6:08Speaker 3: and then you know, so then it's like, well.
- 6:10Speaker 5: When are we when?
- 6:10Speaker 3: When are we going to get the new offensive coordinator?
- 6:12Speaker 3: Then it was waiting for a tier, and then it
- 6:14Speaker 3: was waiting for other transfers. And now you're waiting on
- 6:18Speaker 3: you know, you've waited on our buckle, you wait on this,
- 6:20Speaker 3: waited on you know, on the DC. So I think
- 6:22Speaker 3: what makes this more intense is just the fact, like, yeah,
- 6:25Speaker 3: we record some videos and have them ready to go
- 6:29Speaker 3: so that it's a little bit easier. There's a there's
- 6:33Speaker 3: you know, if you see one of you know, one
- 6:35Speaker 3: of our videos drop and it's a seven minute video
- 6:39Speaker 3: and it drops two minutes after the announcement came on.
- 6:42Speaker 3: I mean, just doing the math, it happens. But because
- 6:45Speaker 3: this situation is a little bit more intense, Uh yeah,
- 6:48Speaker 3: you know that that that's it. And again, you know,
- 6:52Speaker 3: I know that I know that that crew was pretty
- 6:55Speaker 3: pretty upset and they appreciate your patience.
- 6:57Speaker 2: Yeah, it sucks, it's pretty bad. Uh, Coop, check your
- 7:01Speaker 2: mic real quick. It sounds like you're maybe on a
- 7:03Speaker 2: on your computer mic may not be on that mic
- 7:06Speaker 2: check your settings real quick.
- 7:08Speaker 1: Somebody pointed that.
- 7:08Speaker 2: Out, but but yeah, to be honest, I mean, I
- 7:13Speaker 2: know people are freaking out. Of course, you know our
- 7:15Speaker 2: resident doomer and freak out person sooner cowboys in here.
- 7:20Speaker 2: H it proves a point to him, I guess I
- 7:24Speaker 2: don't know why that proves a point, because it doesn't.
- 7:26Speaker 2: I mean, you've got one of the best defensive minds
- 7:28Speaker 2: in the country as your head coach. It just means
- 7:30Speaker 2: that he needs to go ahead and just be the
- 7:32Speaker 2: defensive coordinator kind of like you know, Sarkisian is the
- 7:35Speaker 2: offensive coordinator for Texas.
- 7:37Speaker 1: Like it. I don't think it proves I think them
- 7:40Speaker 1: going after him.
- 7:41Speaker 2: Tells me more like it's like, hey, they're they're actually
- 7:44Speaker 2: going out on a limbo or something big. But I
- 7:49Speaker 2: don't think it means anything else besides that Oclomo's.
- 7:53Speaker 1: Swinging for the fences. I don't mind it. It's just,
- 7:58Speaker 1: uh yeah, it happens to the uh has the best
- 8:05Speaker 1: of us. The good thing is that, like I said,
- 8:06Speaker 1: they made an attempt.
- 8:07Speaker 2: But BV has been a fantastic is a fantastic defensive coordinator,
- 8:10Speaker 2: and we've seen the defenses improve, you know, each season.
- 8:13Speaker 2: So that's the most important thing, which is the hardest
- 8:15Speaker 2: thing to do in college football. If you've noticed, UH
- 8:18Speaker 2: is getting a defense to be any uh to to
- 8:22Speaker 2: really improve like that. So it's gotten better the players
- 8:26Speaker 2: figuring it out, they're they're putting in the work needed.
- 8:30Speaker 2: But adding someone like Jim Knowles would be huge just
- 8:33Speaker 2: because you add an additional defensive mind who's really good
- 8:37Speaker 2: at their job. And Knowles was obviously the architect of
- 8:40Speaker 2: the full defense at Ohio State because Ryan Day's an
- 8:44Speaker 2: offensive mind, and he even gave up the offense to
- 8:49Speaker 2: Chip Kelly, so you saw a completely you know, different
- 8:53Speaker 2: setup you know on that.
- 8:55Speaker 1: So that's to me a huge deal that.
- 8:59Speaker 2: Ryan Day was able to confidently hand that off to
- 9:03Speaker 2: two different coaches and let them do their things.
- 9:04Speaker 1: Good thing for him. Chip Kelly's also as a former
- 9:06Speaker 1: head coach.
- 9:07Speaker 2: So but how big of a deal would it be
- 9:10Speaker 2: to grab Jim Knowles cool especially since you know he
- 9:14Speaker 2: coached at Oklahoma State. Everybody's already tweeted out all the
- 9:16Speaker 2: Oklahoma tize he's has, but he coached.
- 9:19Speaker 1: Here for a few years. How you feel about if
- 9:23Speaker 1: that does go down?
- 9:26Speaker 3: I think that there's two things Jane, Jim Knowles means
- 9:29Speaker 3: to Oklahoma is number one is an optics piece. It
- 9:33Speaker 3: is the fact that, like you, you can go in
- 9:36Speaker 3: and take a look and see that Brent Vinnables, you know,
- 9:39Speaker 3: had a resurgent, you know, twenty twenty, I guess it'd
- 9:43Speaker 3: be three. And so then you see this happens and
- 9:47Speaker 3: it looks like Oklahoma is willing to pretty much do
- 9:49Speaker 3: whatever it takes to make this thing work. You go
- 9:53Speaker 3: out and you get Ben r Buckled, and you bring
- 9:55Speaker 3: in Jim Knowles. The optics looks great on it. But
- 9:58Speaker 3: number two it allows britent Vinaible And I heard you
- 10:00Speaker 3: say it already. It's great because it allows Brent Vinables
- 10:03Speaker 3: to be the head coach and to focus on some
- 10:06Speaker 3: of those detailed details that he keeps on losing. Because
- 10:09Speaker 3: I'm going to be honest, Jay, if you had a
- 10:12Speaker 3: player on the team that kept on missing minor details,
- 10:15Speaker 3: how bad.
- 10:15Speaker 5: Did we you know?
- 10:17Speaker 3: Rack on on Danny Stutsman a couple of years ago
- 10:20Speaker 3: when he was lining inches over to the side, Like,
- 10:22Speaker 3: if a player kept on making some of the same
- 10:24Speaker 3: mistakes that should be basic, over and over and over again,
- 10:28Speaker 3: the tolerance wouldn't be there. So it's signed for Brent
- 10:31Speaker 3: Vinaibles to kind of, you know, I guess polish up
- 10:33Speaker 3: on those is and being able to turn the defense
- 10:36Speaker 3: over to Jim Knowles.
- 10:38Speaker 2: That makes it great, right And I'm not sure how
- 10:43Speaker 2: to pronounce that name. But concerned about the offense, why
- 10:46Speaker 2: we just hide an offensive coordinator and he brought us
- 10:48Speaker 2: quarterback with them.
- 10:53Speaker 3: I mean, you're literally a fake heartbeat away from being
- 10:58Speaker 3: eight and four this past year if you just had
- 11:00Speaker 3: anything on offense, and I can already tell you this, like,
- 11:04Speaker 3: you bring an offensive coordinator who has done a good job.
- 11:07Speaker 3: Mateer proved it on the field the guys in front
- 11:11Speaker 3: of him. He accounted for forty one touchdowns. And so
- 11:15Speaker 3: if that offense takes us a tiny step, this year,
- 11:19Speaker 3: offense is going to be back to what we were expecting.
- 11:21Speaker 5: And I expect a little bit more than that.
- 11:24Speaker 2: Yeah, let's lead right into that conversation. Shout out to
- 11:27Speaker 2: our partners over there at us.
- 11:31Speaker 1: They're hooking up the gamers one hundred fifty percent bonus
- 11:33Speaker 1: on the first deposit up to two thousand dollars by
- 11:35Speaker 1: using promo code YouTube one fifty um coop.
- 11:41Speaker 5: You know.
- 11:44Speaker 1: JD pikel dropped a video about some of the top quarterbacks.
- 11:48Speaker 2: College football he's preparing for in twenty twenty five, and
- 11:51Speaker 2: one of those names in there he mentioned was John
- 11:53Speaker 2: Mattier And one thing he said about Matier was he
- 11:55Speaker 2: says he's good enough for at least two wins, if
- 11:59Speaker 2: not three. By my calculations, that could put that's that's
- 12:05Speaker 2: nine wins based upon last year.
- 12:08Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 12:12Speaker 1: To me, if materr just replicates what you did last year.
- 12:25Speaker 2: Thirty one yards passing a hundre yards, wresting tough but
- 12:28Speaker 2: ae hundred yard Russian four to four touchdowns.
- 12:34Speaker 1: To me, that feels like that's enough. Because all we
- 12:37Speaker 1: needed this year was just competence on the offensive side
- 12:40Speaker 1: of the ball.
- 12:44Speaker 5: Identity.
- 12:47Speaker 3: I mean, it was just identity, Like what is the
- 12:49Speaker 3: thing that you can go to on offense that you
- 12:52Speaker 3: know that's your bread and butter. You know, during the
- 12:54Speaker 3: Lincoln years it was the GC counter we were running that.
- 12:58Speaker 5: It was great.
- 13:02Speaker 3: During the Dylan Gabriel year, I mean, I guess Eric
- 13:04Speaker 3: Gray in Britainvittable's year one was pretty much the only
- 13:08Speaker 3: thing we had on offense, and then last year it
- 13:12Speaker 3: was we went as DG win and you know you had,
- 13:17Speaker 3: you know, a receiver Cord that we didn't expect a
- 13:20Speaker 3: lot out of they showed out. So this year is
- 13:24Speaker 3: can you get to a spots where you know what
- 13:27Speaker 3: you are? And I think already before we take a snap,
- 13:31Speaker 3: I can say Mattier is a playmaker, and so you
- 13:36Speaker 3: can have like a confidence in John Mattier and say,
- 13:39Speaker 3: go make us a play and he's.
- 13:40Speaker 5: Going to do it.
- 13:41Speaker 3: And he's already shown those leadership characteristics too, which were
- 13:44Speaker 3: making those players buy in.
- 13:47Speaker 2: Right, and Chuck, you asked his question, you thought it
- 13:49Speaker 2: was a team sport. How does one guy worth a game?
- 13:52Speaker 2: Because the quarterback can make a break a game easily,
- 13:57Speaker 2: like we've seen Hurt Mayfield Murray, right, You've seen we've
- 14:07Speaker 2: seen Dylan do it. Where one player has found a
- 14:12Speaker 2: way to win the game. That's just kind of how
- 14:15Speaker 2: it is. And especially at quarterback, someone without fear of
- 14:19Speaker 2: throwing the ball, someone can go out there and make
- 14:20Speaker 2: it happen. That's your game changer right there. That's what
- 14:24Speaker 2: you need. And so now we just need to see
- 14:26Speaker 2: him do it in the field.
- 14:28Speaker 1: Once he produces, you're good.
- 14:31Speaker 2: And quarterback is probably the one position that can change
- 14:34Speaker 2: everything for you. Look at Miami. Miami took cam Ward
- 14:38Speaker 2: who was underneath our buckle, and it was like a
- 14:40Speaker 2: completely different team. Even though their defense was cramp He's.
- 14:43Speaker 1: Still able to pull out nine games.
- 14:45Speaker 2: I think that's kind of where I point out how
- 14:48Speaker 2: one person can give you that. I think that can
- 14:50Speaker 2: really only work at either at quarterback and running back.
- 14:55Speaker 1: I think those two spots can do it well.
- 14:58Speaker 5: I mean Jeremiah Smith then jer Chat.
- 15:01Speaker 3: You know, I think that guys like that can can
- 15:03Speaker 3: really make a difference because I mean, that's that's that's
- 15:06Speaker 3: pretty cool.
- 15:07Speaker 5: And yeah, yeah, shout.
- 15:08Speaker 3: Out Tanya Shipman, thank you for the four ninety nine.
- 15:11Speaker 1: I thank you always that appreciate it.
- 15:15Speaker 5: But yeah, we've seen Materier do it.
- 15:17Speaker 3: In my argument for the yeah, but he did it
- 15:19Speaker 3: versus crap competition, My argument for that is Jackson Arnold
- 15:23Speaker 3: didn't do it versus crap competition. And you can't give
- 15:26Speaker 3: Temple's fifty plus points to him because remember we were
- 15:30Speaker 3: zero for twelve in his tenure at you know, under
- 15:32Speaker 3: in third down conversions, the defense got.
- 15:34Speaker 5: Six turnovers, if I my memory serves me.
- 15:36Speaker 3: Correctly, a lot of them right there, and wasn't one
- 15:39Speaker 3: of them a pick six or a pick pop six
- 15:43Speaker 3: courtesy a kindle Adobe. And so you know, Houston, we
- 15:49Speaker 3: got extremely lucky on the punt, I mean extremely lucky
- 15:52Speaker 3: on the punt and held on for dear life two lane.
- 15:55Speaker 3: I mean it was twenty seven points on offense. Is
- 15:58Speaker 3: that where we're at now? For you know, judging competency,
- 16:02Speaker 3: you know, like he didn't do a lot of stuff,
- 16:05Speaker 3: you know, and again even just I mean just think
- 16:07Speaker 3: about it, like, did you really feel like even playing
- 16:10Speaker 3: against Maine this year that it was like were we
- 16:12Speaker 3: as dominating as we really should look? So, I mean
- 16:16Speaker 3: you saw Joumetier do that against all his competitions, So
- 16:19Speaker 3: right there, that immediately tells you that that's a step
- 16:22Speaker 3: up and he's gonna have a little bit better car
- 16:24Speaker 3: to be driving around in here. Yeah, literally and figuratively.
- 16:31Speaker 1: Figuratively. All you need is someone to give you a spark.
- 16:38Speaker 2: And the good thing is you've got an offensive coordinator
- 16:41Speaker 2: who's infamous for creativity. I've been actually watching some Materear
- 16:44Speaker 2: film from last season.
- 16:47Speaker 1: I got a few games.
- 16:49Speaker 2: And not gonna lie. Creativity is there on top of
- 16:55Speaker 2: tear be out there being a dog man like he
- 16:58Speaker 2: he he just makes it work. He just goes and
- 17:01Speaker 2: does it. It's pretty freaking cool to watch him play.
- 17:04Speaker 2: And I think that that's basically what's gotten my attention.
- 17:06Speaker 5: So he just he just is.
- 17:13Speaker 3: He's one of those I mean, when you guys, I mean,
- 17:15Speaker 3: and I'm not comparing them to this guy, So please
- 17:17Speaker 3: just don't.
- 17:18Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you a comparison, give you a comparison.
- 17:21Speaker 3: It's it's like when you see Jaden Daniels out there playing,
- 17:25Speaker 3: immediately Jaden Daniels, he's just a playmaker. It seems like, oh,
- 17:30Speaker 3: oh no, this is where they're gonna have a Oh no,
- 17:31Speaker 3: okay he got out of that, or oh oh he
- 17:34Speaker 3: made that throw like that's that's it. And it's not
- 17:36Speaker 3: that Jackson Arnold didn't have those capabilities. He did, just
- 17:40Speaker 3: didn't have those consistencies. Because we saw the the running
- 17:44Speaker 3: throw against Arizona, We saw you know, throws this year
- 17:47Speaker 3: that you're just like, you know what in the world.
- 17:48Speaker 3: We saw the brain work and the talent come together,
- 17:51Speaker 3: it just didn't happen consistently.
- 17:55Speaker 2: That's all you need is consistency, and you need someone
- 17:58Speaker 2: that's gonna put together like I said, just a competent
- 18:01Speaker 2: offense and design creativity to help with going against these
- 18:05Speaker 2: really good defensive coordinators. That's the thing about the SEC.
- 18:08Speaker 2: It's defensive coordinators usually are really really good.
- 18:11Speaker 1: So but we'll wait and see. We got up.
- 18:15Speaker 2: This weekend is the junior day, and to me, you
- 18:19Speaker 2: want something out there, you want something to be known about,
- 18:24Speaker 2: you know, if you're going to bring in another coordinator
- 18:27Speaker 2: or not. But to me, my comparison from Materials one
- 18:31Speaker 2: hundred percent and Jalen Hurts similar play style. I think
- 18:35Speaker 2: he has a bet he has a better touch on
- 18:36Speaker 2: his passes then Hurts. I saw him drop some passes
- 18:40Speaker 2: on the back shoulder. Like I said, I'm gonna go
- 18:43Speaker 2: through the all twenty two tape and I'll I'll draw
- 18:46Speaker 2: some stuff up. But he also he plays. He just
- 18:50Speaker 2: goes out there in balls and so JD. Piquel talked
- 18:55Speaker 2: about he's one of the quarter He gives them two points,
- 18:58Speaker 2: maybe three, two game, maybe three for potential for Oklahoma.
- 19:05Speaker 2: So that's a big deal. And we've been hearing in
- 19:10Speaker 2: winter workouts. I know you've seen them on social media.
- 19:12Speaker 2: I saw if you post about it that it sounds
- 19:14Speaker 2: like but here's already taken control of the offense, and
- 19:16Speaker 2: the players like everyone's like literally lining up behind a
- 19:20Speaker 2: dude saying, Okay, you the man.
- 19:23Speaker 1: You are the man.
- 19:25Speaker 5: Definitely, so, definitely so because he's.
- 19:28Speaker 2: A strong runner and he works his butt off, and
- 19:33Speaker 2: I think one of the announcers in one of the
- 19:35Speaker 2: clips I saw for one of the games said, he
- 19:37Speaker 2: squat six hundred pounds.
- 19:39Speaker 1: Six reminds me of Hurts by a lot.
- 19:41Speaker 3: And yeah, same, same type of thing, same, I mean absolutely,
- 19:46Speaker 3: And where whereas I say, Lincoln schemed up an offense
- 19:52Speaker 3: that Jalen Hurts could could be highlighted in. And that's
- 19:55Speaker 3: another thing that I don't think the whole conversation with Jackson,
- 20:00Speaker 3: I'm not fitting into the scheme that you know, Ceth
- 20:03Speaker 3: of Trail wanted to run. Was the most bass ackwards
- 20:05Speaker 3: thing I've ever heard in my life. Because you're supposed
- 20:08Speaker 3: to scheme to your quarterback. That's what the great offensive
- 20:10Speaker 3: coordinators do, right go and they scheme to the quarterback,
- 20:14Speaker 3: and Lincoln did that for Jalen. Jalen wasn't a great passer.
- 20:17Speaker 3: I mean I still to this day after the I
- 20:21Speaker 3: think he was was at the LSU game. Yeah, after
- 20:23Speaker 3: the LSU game and after the Army or not the
- 20:26Speaker 3: Army game, there was another game. I was just like,
- 20:29Speaker 3: here's the thing. I don't think Jalen hurts. I think
- 20:32Speaker 3: that someone will draft him in the six or seventh
- 20:33Speaker 3: round because he's just one of those core team guys.
- 20:37Speaker 3: But in my head, I was like, he's going to
- 20:39Speaker 3: be taking the Eric Crouch route. He is going to go,
- 20:41Speaker 3: He's gonna sit around for a while and nothing's gonna happen.
- 20:44Speaker 5: I was wrong. I was wrong.
- 20:45Speaker 3: People loved his work ethic, he was strong as hell,
- 20:48Speaker 3: and what they've done with him in Philadelphia has been terrific.
- 20:52Speaker 3: So if you have a guy a situation where Our
- 20:55Speaker 3: Buckle can do something like that from a teer here
- 20:57Speaker 3: with like I said, you know, upgraded offensive weapons, I mean,
- 21:01Speaker 3: that's just kind of a It excites me. And again
- 21:05Speaker 3: right now, I think that that's why this Our Buckle
- 21:09Speaker 3: news was big. I think that's why the gym knowles
- 21:12Speaker 3: you know win would be big is because it's a
- 21:14Speaker 3: win in all this waiting, and it gives us that
- 21:16Speaker 3: ability to go and move into the next season. And
- 21:19Speaker 3: I promise you we're going to be talking people off
- 21:21Speaker 3: of a ledge on why we're going to go undefeated
- 21:24Speaker 3: and stuff. At some point in the next several months,
- 21:26Speaker 3: like people are going to take that turn to hey,
- 21:29Speaker 3: we're going to be really freaking good.
- 21:31Speaker 1: Yeah, that's.
- 21:34Speaker 2: I just need I just need some confidence. But I
- 21:36Speaker 2: think that material can really give you that. At least
- 21:42Speaker 2: that's what it feels like.

- 22:52Speaker 2: my got PG. He's been reaching out to players like crazy,
- 22:57Speaker 2: so I'm hearing the core looking at it. I know
- 22:59Speaker 2: one name though that should get everybody excited and wanted
- 23:04Speaker 2: to point out is our guy, Kay Jones. He dropped
- 23:10Speaker 2: his top five recently, which is you know as an
- 23:16Speaker 2: Oklahoma legacy is this week and call it. Let me
- 23:22Speaker 2: get this pulled up real quick so y'all can see
- 23:25Speaker 2: what I am talking about.
- 23:29Speaker 1: Here it is and I don't understand why I don't
- 23:33Speaker 1: see my guy coopen here. Let me switch that there
- 23:39Speaker 1: he is there, he is mister America all right, one.
- 23:46Speaker 3: Of those things come back to back, mister America and
- 23:49Speaker 3: my face, and.
- 23:52Speaker 1: I mean, you deserve it, You're just that awesome.
- 23:55Speaker 2: But no, as you can see, Kate and Green has
- 23:57Speaker 2: he will be visiting this weekend and he also dropped
- 24:01Speaker 2: his top five. How do you feel about Young Batman Coop.
- 24:08Speaker 3: The top five. Uh, I don't know if it is one.
- 24:12Speaker 3: I mean, is it a top five? You know you
- 24:15Speaker 3: see you see up in Kansas. I mean, shout out again.
- 24:19Speaker 3: I mean, just look at the names up there. What
- 24:21Speaker 3: Vanderbilt and Kansas have been able to do the past
- 24:23Speaker 3: couple of years, Uh, you know, just entering their names
- 24:26Speaker 3: into you know, relevancy. Kansas was one of the toughest
- 24:29Speaker 3: team in the teams in the Big Twelve towards the
- 24:30Speaker 3: end of the year. And I don't know what happened
- 24:32Speaker 3: early in the year, but you know they were they
- 24:35Speaker 3: were they were spoiling some folks conference championship appearances. But
- 24:40Speaker 3: then you got Louisville and Tennessee. So I mean, you know, again,
- 24:44Speaker 3: I played against Key one. You know, I was there
- 24:46Speaker 3: at school with him, and uh he's uh he's a character,
- 24:51Speaker 3: and you know, I love that guy. And so we're
- 24:54Speaker 3: trying to have him on the uh the parent interviews.
- 24:56Speaker 3: So we get a little ex player slash parent, you know,
- 25:00Speaker 3: somebody that everybody can know. But Cayden is explosive, and
- 25:04Speaker 3: you know, I think it's a travesty what happened in
- 25:06Speaker 3: the uh the end of the season because I think
- 25:08Speaker 3: he uh was in overtime he got like one touch
- 25:11Speaker 3: or something like that, and you know, you just he's
- 25:14Speaker 3: a he's a he's a guy you feed the rock
- 25:15Speaker 3: to and so. But you know, this is a guy
- 25:18Speaker 3: that uh, if oh you want so, you needs to
- 25:21Speaker 3: get And this is not somebody you can let go
- 25:23Speaker 3: to Tennessee because, uh do you remember a little little
- 25:26Speaker 3: fellow named Josh Jacobs who you know, uh the regime
- 25:30Speaker 3: didn't take and he uh, he put a chip on
- 25:32Speaker 3: his shoulder and he you know, went and put himself
- 25:35Speaker 3: as one of the best running backs in the NFL.
- 25:37Speaker 3: So I want to see us Land Caden because I
- 25:41Speaker 3: think he'd be a good compliment and a great great piece,
- 25:43Speaker 3: uh to go along with Jaden O'Neill.
- 25:45Speaker 1: No, And I totally agree.
- 25:46Speaker 3: Uh.
- 25:47Speaker 1: Yes, this is Kewan Jones, Caden Jones. This is Kewan
- 25:50Speaker 1: Jones's son, so former Sooner Kewan Jones. Yeah, that's a
- 25:59Speaker 1: pretty pretty big one.
- 26:02Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 26:02Speaker 3: And Key One, you know, Key One was the battering
- 26:08Speaker 3: mate there with with Quinton and Cayden. Is a lot
- 26:13Speaker 3: more athletic, a lot more explosive. And that's to say
- 26:16Speaker 3: something because Key One just uh, you know, when I
- 26:20Speaker 3: first saw Samaji p Ryan, that's who I thought of
- 26:22Speaker 3: was Kewan Jones and SMA you know, a little bit
- 26:24Speaker 3: more of the upgrade there, but that's you know, that's
- 26:27Speaker 3: who Key one was. And so Cayden a little bit
- 26:29Speaker 3: more explosive. So this is one that again you want
- 26:32Speaker 3: to build that wall around the state of Oklahoma for
- 26:35Speaker 3: the top players and and so you can't let him out.
- 26:39Speaker 2: You got to keep him. He's one that is a
- 26:42Speaker 2: must have. Another player that is pulling up from the
- 26:46Speaker 2: great state of Ohio, Sincere Johnson. I'm intrigued by Sincere linebacker,
- 26:59Speaker 2: four star edge slash linebacker. Like I'm truly not sure
- 27:04Speaker 2: what he is, what he'll end up being, let's put
- 27:08Speaker 2: it that way. But I've heard nothing but good things.
- 27:14Speaker 2: I was talking to our resident Ohio expert because you know,
- 27:17Speaker 2: we got four dudes from Ohio here, Yeah, we do,
- 27:21Speaker 2: which is even more hilarious to me. We have four
- 27:24Speaker 2: dudes from Ohio here, and I was talking.
- 27:26Speaker 5: To one of them. Might be listening today right now.
- 27:30Speaker 2: Yeah, I was just talking to Reggie Power's dad about him,
- 27:34Speaker 2: and yeah, word is he's gonna be a beast. That's
- 27:42Speaker 2: what it sounds like six three to thirty five legitimate
- 27:45Speaker 2: out of Cleveland, Ohio. This is one of those that
- 27:48Speaker 2: hopefully we can steal him out of the backyard of
- 27:50Speaker 2: you know, Ohio State. But he's good, real good. When
- 27:57Speaker 2: I saw that, Coop, I got pretty excited. I'm like, look,
- 27:59Speaker 2: that's one that's a linebacker edge we need to get
- 28:01Speaker 2: our hands on for real. We got to find a
- 28:03Speaker 2: way to win this one. We got a that's a
- 28:06Speaker 2: that's a long list of players. So going through the
- 28:10Speaker 2: list of players that I have, so you've got j
- 28:17Speaker 2: O'Neill's gonna be back in town, in which I know
- 28:20Speaker 2: he's been recruiting Kaden Jones like crazy over the last
- 28:24Speaker 2: few few months.
- 28:26Speaker 1: That's one.
- 28:26Speaker 2: I actually remember seeing them at the BV camp last
- 28:29Speaker 2: year and I think Cayden mentioned that he basically invited
- 28:33Speaker 2: him to that Mason James from was it Norman High.
- 28:43Speaker 2: I know the staff is gone to go visit him.
- 28:49Speaker 3: And you saw Jade and O'Neill's comment, right, Yeah, maybe
- 28:54Speaker 3: he's making him a priority. And you know that's uh
- 28:58Speaker 3: that that that's big because you know he's he's probably
- 29:02Speaker 3: the the next man up as far as like the
- 29:05Speaker 3: leader for this recruiting class. This is a chance twenty
- 29:07Speaker 3: six is could be a chance for a really really
- 29:10Speaker 3: good recruiting class because you've got the top end quarterback
- 29:12Speaker 3: and so.
- 29:15Speaker 5: And anybody anybody that you can get.
- 29:17Speaker 3: This is this is again with with going Elijah Thomas,
- 29:21Speaker 3: you know from right here in Oklahoma to Mason James,
- 29:24Speaker 3: back to back years. Those are that's kind of like
- 29:27Speaker 3: putting years together where you're getting Sterling Shepherd and uh
- 29:31Speaker 3: you know Mark Clayton. You know that that that's that
- 29:34Speaker 3: type of hall in back to back years because I
- 29:36Speaker 3: think both those guys are going to be absolute studs.
- 29:39Speaker 1: No, I honor agree with you on that one. You
- 29:42Speaker 1: get that back ooh, back to back years of that.
- 29:46Speaker 3: M me to go with the supporting cast that you've
- 29:49Speaker 3: already got in got in tow and I mean, these
- 29:53Speaker 3: are these are guys again why you do the Oklahoma thing?
- 29:56Speaker 3: Jay that they know what it means here, They've been
- 29:59Speaker 3: around it.
- 30:00Speaker 1: You know, you prep it's important.
- 30:02Speaker 5: It's a it's a very very very tough tough thing.
- 30:06Speaker 3: I mean because again, like you knows as a fan,
- 30:08Speaker 3: you're like, man, if I had a chance, so if
- 30:09Speaker 3: I was really really good. Hecky, i'd be going to Oklahoma. Well,
- 30:13Speaker 3: you know, they also see the downside of it. They
- 30:15Speaker 3: also see us you know, uh boot boot quarterbacks and
- 30:19Speaker 3: uh you know, yell at wide receivers and tight.
- 30:21Speaker 5: Ends and stuff like that too.
- 30:23Speaker 3: So it's like, you know, it's not a guarantee that
- 30:25Speaker 3: these guys just you know, decide to come here, and
- 30:28Speaker 3: but they see this offense this year, and I think
- 30:32Speaker 3: that that that clears up a lot.
- 30:35Speaker 2: That's what's gonna be most important is that we still
- 30:37Speaker 2: got to show it on the field. That's probably the
- 30:41Speaker 2: most important one. They're h t you're asking how tall
- 30:45Speaker 2: is Mason. Mason is six foot one sixty is what
- 30:48Speaker 2: he's listed here on the on three uh site.
- 30:54Speaker 1: Let me pull it up.
- 30:55Speaker 2: See y'all can kind of see what I'm talking about.
- 30:59Speaker 2: If I can get this BA would work uh this
- 31:03Speaker 2: tap instead, I mean zoom and seay'all can see them.
- 31:09Speaker 3: Which is you know, like the the the type the
- 31:12Speaker 3: tall I mean, the top wide receivers here this year
- 31:14Speaker 3: you did Corey Moore five eleven one eighty six, you
- 31:17Speaker 3: know a little bit of a shorter wide receiver.
- 31:19Speaker 5: Click Lockett.
- 31:20Speaker 3: He's going to Texas you know, six one and a half,
- 31:23Speaker 3: so right in that same range six two, six two
- 31:26Speaker 3: and a half, Dallas Wilson going to Florida and then Cunningham.
- 31:30Speaker 5: Six to two.
- 31:31Speaker 3: So I mean, like, you know, some of the top
- 31:33Speaker 3: receivers are right in that six one, six one and
- 31:35Speaker 3: a half range, uh, you know six to two range
- 31:38Speaker 3: right now, because you know these wide receivers, some of
- 31:41Speaker 3: these guys, like you don't always realize how tall they are,
- 31:44Speaker 3: how big they are. You just see how dominant their
- 31:46Speaker 3: play is. And you know, we saw Hollywood Brown dominate,
- 31:49Speaker 3: We saw D D. West dominate, you know, Ryan Broyles dominate.
- 31:53Speaker 3: So I mean, he this isn't this is one where
- 31:56Speaker 3: you know, this might be the next big one. And
- 31:58Speaker 3: that's you know, saying a lot because e T is
- 32:00Speaker 3: right you know, on campus right now.
- 32:03Speaker 2: Right And Mason James is in four on three in
- 32:05Speaker 2: their composite, their industry rank from everybody, they have him as.
- 32:10Speaker 1: Number one in the in the state. Two four seven
- 32:17Speaker 1: has him as fourth in the state behind all of
- 32:22Speaker 1: the big boys. Katie So Caden Jones is number two
- 32:25Speaker 1: behind Taj Overton, which I believe Overton is going to
- 32:28Speaker 1: be visiting as well. Now that's one defensive linment.
- 32:31Speaker 2: I really won't Taje Overton very much. If I told
- 32:35Speaker 2: you how much I want Taje Overton, I don't think
- 32:38Speaker 2: I've told you how.
- 32:39Speaker 5: Much I will go.
- 32:41Speaker 2: Let him know, please go up to Oiso and please
- 32:45Speaker 2: tell him that he needs to come to Oklahoma.
- 32:48Speaker 1: That's probably the one dude in state that we we
- 32:50Speaker 1: can't miss out on at all.
- 32:53Speaker 3: And you got him, and then I think in twenty
- 32:56Speaker 3: seven you've got the Booker t kid and I can't
- 32:59Speaker 3: re remember his name.
- 33:01Speaker 5: I'll stop my head.
- 33:02Speaker 3: But I mean, you've got a couple of defensive linemen
- 33:05Speaker 3: coming out of the Tulsa metro area that are you know,
- 33:07Speaker 3: going to be highly sought after.
- 33:10Speaker 2: Yeah, twenty seven is gonna be a fun class too,
- 33:12Speaker 2: But twenty six we're gonna focus on this one.
- 33:15Speaker 1: Yeah, I won't. I won't.
- 33:16Speaker 2: I won't Taje over to two, six, three, right now
- 33:19Speaker 2: to seventy five. He can get up into the three hundred,
- 33:21Speaker 2: no problem. Probably next season he'll be at that point.
- 33:24Speaker 2: He can ball. I like TODs I watched I've watched
- 33:27Speaker 2: him in a wat so he can ball. He's one
- 33:29Speaker 2: of the many that we desperately need to get our
- 33:31Speaker 2: hands on and I expect you know, you know baits
- 33:35Speaker 2: to be out there and be busy. Yeah, it's gonna
- 33:38Speaker 2: be a big weekend. There'll be a lot of names
- 33:40Speaker 2: out there. I've been seeing the offers go out like crazy,
- 33:44Speaker 2: and so the expectation is the visits are gonna be plentiful.
- 33:52Speaker 1: So we'll be waiting for the pictures.
- 33:54Speaker 2: I gotta give a PG probably try to get him
- 33:57Speaker 2: own this weekend to talk about who we talked to
- 33:59Speaker 2: or whatnot. I've got to figure out who can we
- 34:07Speaker 2: probably expect over the next couple of months. It's gonna
- 34:12Speaker 2: be it's gonna be critical to start getting some of
- 34:16Speaker 2: this class done early, especially once everything comes down on
- 34:22Speaker 2: an Il and everything.
- 34:22Speaker 1: But I don't I don't, I don't.
- 34:24Speaker 2: I don't know of anybody that even has chance of
- 34:26Speaker 2: committing soon. It's been it's quiet because typically right now,
- 34:29Speaker 2: the one that we're chasing is usually.
- 34:35Speaker 1: The quarterback.
- 34:37Speaker 2: Right now, we're usually trying to get that quarterback commitment
- 34:40Speaker 2: between now and the end of February. But we got
- 34:43Speaker 2: Jaon O'Neills last year, so we're kind of chilling. Lee Bird,
- 34:48Speaker 2: thank you for the two Bucks, Ohio States Natty celebration
- 34:52Speaker 2: is Sunday at noon.
- 34:54Speaker 1: It is, Yeah, it is.
- 34:58Speaker 3: And so if you you're just now tuning in, uh,
- 35:03Speaker 3: things feel positive, Things feel pretty good. I know that
- 35:06Speaker 3: there's a lot of Penn State smoke, you know, kind
- 35:09Speaker 3: of swirling around right now.
- 35:11Speaker 2: Because they need to deep as a coordinator. I don't
- 35:13Speaker 2: know if y'all know that, but yeah, Penn State needs
- 35:15Speaker 2: one because there's.
- 35:16Speaker 5: Left there, they're DC left.
- 35:18Speaker 3: Notre Dame also now needs one because Al Golden is
- 35:22Speaker 3: heading to the NFL and so they're going to be
- 35:26Speaker 3: looking for somebody. And so you know, that's two other programs.
- 35:30Speaker 3: I've got my thoughts on it. But I mean, I
- 35:33Speaker 3: think that I feel pretty confident about this based off
- 35:37Speaker 3: the you know, the folks that we talk to and
- 35:39Speaker 3: have conversations with and and but again it's it is
- 35:44Speaker 3: dead season. I mean, there's nothing happening right now, and
- 35:46Speaker 3: so this, uh, this whole conversation has been again just
- 35:52Speaker 3: the end of the waiting period. So you know, just
- 35:55Speaker 3: if you're just tuning in, we we still we still
- 35:56Speaker 3: feel pretty good about this, and I think that, uh,
- 35:59Speaker 3: my personal opinion is he's probably not sticking around for
- 36:02Speaker 3: the parade.
- 36:03Speaker 5: I just don't.
- 36:04Speaker 3: I just don't see that being a thing. And if
- 36:05Speaker 3: you're if you're gonna leave, might as well head out now.
- 36:08Speaker 3: I think that, uh, you know, I've had people, you know,
- 36:10Speaker 3: you know, kind of reach out and say they think
- 36:12Speaker 3: that it's done as of tonight, and we should hear
- 36:15Speaker 3: something tomorrow. So we just sit and wait, because until
- 36:18Speaker 3: it's news, it's uh potential news.
- 36:21Speaker 1: Yeah it ain't. Yeah, we don't. We don't have anything.
- 36:23Speaker 1: I have nothing. We're just sitting here on that.

- 36:52Speaker 2: championship numbers potentially.
- 36:54Speaker 1: Did you see that.
- 36:56Speaker 5: He's been numbers, I mean, listens, numbers have started to drop.
- 37:00Speaker 1: Let me pull that up for us. We'll give a
- 37:02Speaker 1: shout out to our partners over there at bet us.
- 37:03Speaker 1: Give me a second. I'm gonna get.
- 37:05Speaker 2: Y'all this college football futures is what we're seeing right now.
- 37:15Speaker 2: This is interesting. I want to talk about this. I'm
- 37:21Speaker 2: gonna zoom in for y'all. Shouldy'all get a good view
- 37:26Speaker 2: of this and see the names that are in here.
- 37:31Speaker 2: All right, bet Us can hook you up, go on
- 37:40Speaker 2: the side.
- 37:40Speaker 1: But check this out though.
- 37:42Speaker 2: Right now bet Us has listed Arch plus four hundred,
- 37:47Speaker 2: Matiers at plus fourteen.
- 37:48Speaker 1: Oh wow, he's gone. The number is gotten better.
- 37:53Speaker 3: Yeah, because he was was it seventeen hundred at one point?
- 37:57Speaker 2: I think it was like twenty to one initially. Now
- 38:00Speaker 2: he's fourteen to one. It's pretty big jump. Arch of course,
- 38:08Speaker 2: Garrett Nesmy at nine to one. Him and Jeremiah Love.
- 38:13Speaker 2: That's interesting. Jeremiah Smith's also nine to one, Club Knicks
- 38:21Speaker 2: ten to one. Dante Moore is at eighteen to one.
- 38:26Speaker 1: That's interesting. Julian say it's eighteen to one.
- 38:30Speaker 5: Oh gosh, Avery Johnson out there Kansas.
- 38:32Speaker 1: Day Johnson is fifty to one. That's high.
- 38:35Speaker 2: It's a high number. But just the fact that Matteir
- 38:39Speaker 2: is sitting here at fourteen to one. Vegas Fgas knows
- 38:47Speaker 2: something I don't know, but that's an interesting number to
- 38:53Speaker 2: have at fourteen to one.
- 38:54Speaker 1: To me Arch Jeck what I.
- 38:58Speaker 5: Was gonna say.
- 38:59Speaker 3: A lot of people will feel very confident that Lagway's
- 39:01Speaker 3: the pick, and he's sitting there at the same exact
- 39:03Speaker 3: odds as Materiars.
- 39:04Speaker 2: So yeah, Lagway is the one that I'm I'm kind
- 39:10Speaker 2: of leaning the heaviest on.
- 39:14Speaker 1: With when it comes to the Heisman odds.
- 39:15Speaker 2: I think I think Lagway if he's healthy, because he
- 39:18Speaker 2: did have the injury this year, if he stays healthy,
- 39:21Speaker 2: he's probably going to be the more popular one.
- 39:26Speaker 1: It has the better chance to get it.
- 39:30Speaker 3: You know, a lot of mediocre teams, you know, researched
- 39:34Speaker 3: towards the end of the year and then the expectation,
- 39:37Speaker 3: you know, inflates, you know, with the Florida you know,
- 39:42Speaker 3: the first over unders that I saw had like South Carolina,
- 39:47Speaker 3: who a lot of people feel super confident about at
- 39:49Speaker 3: six wins, And yeah, I think they had Florida.
- 39:52Speaker 5: At six wins too.
- 39:53Speaker 3: So I mean, I don't know if Lagway comes in
- 39:57Speaker 3: and the defense can't make it happen, you know, people
- 40:00Speaker 3: feel good about that, But I mean I'm just saying,
- 40:01Speaker 3: you're not winning the Heisman with four losses. I just
- 40:05Speaker 3: don't see that happening, and for Florida to go eight
- 40:08Speaker 3: and four, that would be a pretty impressive run for
- 40:10Speaker 3: them this.
- 40:10Speaker 1: Year with that schedule. Yeah, it would be.
- 40:17Speaker 3: I don't I'm saying Blackly wins the Heisman, the over
- 40:22Speaker 3: under and the end that bets. If you are parlaying
- 40:25Speaker 3: as a Florida fan, you are making some coin.
- 40:27Speaker 2: You really are, because that Heisman number because Lagway, Yeah
- 40:34Speaker 2: that with the Natty, Yeah, you're making some bread.
- 40:36Speaker 1: If you do that totally, we'll be worth.
- 40:38Speaker 3: It to if you somehow got that in with some
- 40:41Speaker 3: kind of a parlay or something like that. You got
- 40:43Speaker 3: Jackson Arnold there at thirty five hundred, that's.
- 40:47Speaker 1: An interesting one.
- 40:48Speaker 2: How do you feel about Jackson Arnold being up here
- 40:50Speaker 2: on the Heisman odds like that?
- 40:53Speaker 3: I mean, Connor Wegman is a twenty eight hundred, so
- 40:55Speaker 3: I mean Connor Wegman, I mean, does anybody who would
- 41:00Speaker 3: you have Connor Wegman or Jackson Arnold like?
- 41:05Speaker 5: Is that? I mean that's like I'm not going to
- 41:10Speaker 5: smear their names like.
- 41:11Speaker 3: That, but I mean that's just I don't feel like
- 41:13Speaker 3: that's either those choices are very good and so, I
- 41:18Speaker 3: mean Leonora Sellers is up is he a fourteen hundred
- 41:21Speaker 3: right there too? I mean Jackson normal, you know, at
- 41:25Speaker 3: that high That just basically says like, hey, we're putting
- 41:27Speaker 3: his name on here because he was a high expectation
- 41:30Speaker 3: quarterback at a decently sized program. If he comes in
- 41:34Speaker 3: there and fixes stuff, he's going to have the conversation.
- 41:37Speaker 5: Is it likely? Probably not.
- 41:40Speaker 2: Yeah, his odds being at thirty five is interesting that
- 41:45Speaker 2: he I mean, he's tied with Gunner Stockton and Marcel
- 41:48Speaker 2: Reed and Jyalen Daniels.
- 41:51Speaker 3: Who wants put thirty five hundred dollars on Gunner Stockton
- 41:53Speaker 3: winning the Heisman next year.
- 41:56Speaker 1: I couldn't do that. I couldn't.
- 42:00Speaker 2: I couldn't even put it on the time as castillonis,
- 42:04Speaker 2: even though him at Florida State.
- 42:06Speaker 1: Probably is gonna be pretty good because it throw the ball.
- 42:11Speaker 5: We'll see. Whatever happened there this year, I mean that
- 42:15Speaker 5: was bad.
- 42:16Speaker 3: I don't know, I mean literally, like, I'm pretty sure
- 42:19Speaker 3: that they saved Oklahoma from being a lot more, you
- 42:22Speaker 3: know under the microscope. Yeah, now, granted it's a little
- 42:28Speaker 3: bit harder.
- 42:29Speaker 5: I mean it's not like.
- 42:30Speaker 3: They're missing you know, twelve offensive players, you know, twelve
- 42:35Speaker 3: offensive starters.
- 42:35Speaker 5: Or whatever.
- 42:36Speaker 3: And you know, so, I mean they went had a
- 42:39Speaker 3: healthy team, they had a healthy team, and they dunked out.
- 42:42Speaker 1: They just lost.
- 42:43Speaker 5: It was just bad in every way manageable.
- 42:47Speaker 1: It's just bad.
- 42:48Speaker 2: Dalan Rayola twenty five hundred. That intrigues me twenty five
- 42:53Speaker 2: to one odds.
- 42:56Speaker 3: I mean it's not a terrible bet. I mean he
- 42:59Speaker 3: did have he did look good early in the season.
- 43:03Speaker 3: Sophomore season is how do you get better, get better
- 43:06Speaker 3: at those things that you weren't doing very well, and
- 43:08Speaker 3: how do you add more arsenal to your repertoire because
- 43:12Speaker 3: it's not like you know, they're going to start practicing
- 43:14Speaker 3: all the stuff that you did really really well, and
- 43:16Speaker 3: so you got to have some new tricks of your
- 43:19Speaker 3: sleeve too. Otherwise that's that's why people run into the
- 43:22Speaker 3: sophomore slump situation. So Dante Moore down there, eighteen hundred.
- 43:31Speaker 3: Sawyer Robertson, is that bar Beck is sixteen? I wasn't
- 43:40Speaker 3: he the leading favorite coming into the year.
- 43:43Speaker 1: And he was supposed to be a number one draft pick.
- 43:47Speaker 5: Yeah, but now he's in the DG route.
- 43:53Speaker 2: Cainen Salter, I like him at twenty five. I actually
- 43:55Speaker 2: liked that number. I think Pat Sherman could do something
- 43:58Speaker 2: with him in Colorado. I've been trigued by that one.
- 44:03Speaker 3: Yeah, Psalter is going to have a love There's gonna
- 44:06Speaker 3: be a lot of pressure back behind him too, though.
- 44:08Speaker 2: Yes, and I think that that's what will If he
- 44:11Speaker 2: doesn't crack under pressure, he could end up it was
- 44:15Speaker 2: something big.
- 44:15Speaker 1: But if you want to jump on that.
- 44:17Speaker 2: High parties over their bad us, they will hook you
- 44:20Speaker 2: up one hundred and fift percent bonus on the first
- 44:22Speaker 2: parts of two thousand dollars using promo code you two
- 44:24Speaker 2: one fifty. What's close this out with this coop? Did
- 44:29Speaker 2: you watch your Homa Breakdown?
- 44:35Speaker 5: Yeah?
- 44:35Speaker 1: You did.
- 44:37Speaker 2: I watched it too. So Curtis lofton interview Teddy Gabe
- 44:42Speaker 2: did a good job there. Shout out to them if
- 44:44Speaker 2: you're not watching them, they're the ones to tune in
- 44:46Speaker 2: on Talking Ball.
- 44:47Speaker 1: They're fun, They're.
- 44:48Speaker 2: Good, They always yes and in the weeds is fun
- 44:53Speaker 2: watching some of the film breakdown, Yeah, one hundred percent
- 44:58Speaker 2: worth your time. So, but Curtis lofton former GM for Oklahoma,
- 45:04Speaker 2: was on there. He talked about his experience at Oklahoma
- 45:07Speaker 2: as the GM. He talked about the players kind of
- 45:11Speaker 2: gave thoughts on he feels like a lot of players
- 45:13Speaker 2: too entitled, et cetera, so and so forth. But he
- 45:20Speaker 2: did talk some ball, and he talked about a couple
- 45:23Speaker 2: of players that jumped out to me, went on offense
- 45:25Speaker 2: and won on defense. Talked about Matier said he thinks
- 45:29Speaker 2: he's him, he's special, but he talked about the quarterback
- 45:32Speaker 2: behind him. He said that he thinks Michael Hawkins can
- 45:34Speaker 2: win a Heisman Trophy. How do you feel about that?
- 45:40Speaker 3: I mean, realized potential and continuing to level up. You know,
- 45:44Speaker 3: I saw some folks talking in the chat earlier that
- 45:46Speaker 3: enough Materier went down like we were, we'd be toast.
- 45:49Speaker 3: Like I don't think so, I think that I think
- 45:51Speaker 3: that Hawkins is still going to be a phenomenal, phenomenal player.
- 45:56Speaker 5: And.
- 45:58Speaker 3: Like I just I don't Maybe it's probably not this year,
- 46:02Speaker 3: but I think you get the brain, you know, you
- 46:05Speaker 3: just look at the confidence swing, you know, in the
- 46:07Speaker 3: in the in the bowl game, I mean you felt
- 46:09Speaker 3: a little bit like he was willing to push the
- 46:11Speaker 3: ball downfield a little bit more. And so and that's
- 46:14Speaker 3: what's again, playing with no weapons at all, and so
- 46:16Speaker 3: you give him some weapons, you know, in another year.
- 46:19Speaker 3: I think he's going to look pretty good winning a Heisman.
- 46:22Speaker 3: I mean that's a he's going to have to have
- 46:24Speaker 3: some pretty good jumps. And I mean I'm just saying that.
- 46:30Speaker 3: You know, we go to a nine and three year
- 46:32Speaker 3: and you know, Matier feels like it's a you know,
- 46:35Speaker 3: there's a chance that twenty six could be special for
- 46:37Speaker 3: this team he comes back again.
- 46:40Speaker 5: I mean we're still waiting.
- 46:41Speaker 3: That's two more years away from you know, seeing Michael Hawkins.
- 46:45Speaker 3: So I mean, if he sticks around that long, I mean,
- 46:48Speaker 3: that's just not that's not common in this era. And
- 46:51Speaker 3: so that gives him one year and so you know
- 46:54Speaker 3: that that's and then he's also going to have you know,
- 46:56Speaker 3: Jadan O'Neill coming in town. So I you know, listen,
- 47:00Speaker 3: if I had to bet one way or the other,
- 47:01Speaker 3: I don't think I would be very inclined to put
- 47:06Speaker 3: money on him winning the Heisman. I think I would
- 47:08Speaker 3: take the other one the other side pretty quickly.
- 47:11Speaker 5: But it's not impossible.
- 47:15Speaker 1: Same.
- 47:17Speaker 2: He showed a lot of heart out there in that game,
- 47:21Speaker 2: and I think that our buckle can really mold him
- 47:24Speaker 2: into something special.
- 47:25Speaker 1: But I think Materier is gonna be fun as well.
- 47:28Speaker 2: I don't even know if Matier be here long with
- 47:30Speaker 2: any year. If he replicates what he did last year,
- 47:32Speaker 2: he may not even come back for another year. So
- 47:35Speaker 2: at that point we kind of neat Hawkins ready and
- 47:37Speaker 2: you have freshman Jade no feel coming in. Got a
- 47:39Speaker 2: lot of work to go on that one. We talked
- 47:44Speaker 2: about somebody on defense like they post a clip on
- 47:49Speaker 2: X and often didn't even give Tate opportunity to finish
- 47:54Speaker 2: the question. More so, who was a young player or
- 47:56Speaker 2: player on defense that you feel like it to be
- 47:58Speaker 2: super impactful.
- 47:58Speaker 1: He immediately jumped out.
- 47:59Speaker 2: Boomed Koye, our boy friend of the show, Daniel Koye, Coop,
- 48:07Speaker 2: I feel like this is the year where he's gonna
- 48:08Speaker 2: break out.
- 48:12Speaker 1: I mean, I'm buying stock.
- 48:14Speaker 5: And I'm just I'm just saying this.
- 48:17Speaker 3: If you if any of us went out and started
- 48:20Speaker 3: playing some basketball against a bunch of you know, ten
- 48:25Speaker 3: year olds, eleven year olds, even in my decrepit old age,
- 48:31Speaker 3: I would not have to have much skill to win.
- 48:34Speaker 3: And that's what it was like for Danny playing at homeschool.
- 48:36Speaker 3: Is he is such an athletic, just freak of nature
- 48:40Speaker 3: and just a mutant and that gap is almost taken
- 48:45Speaker 3: almost all the way away, and guys like him are
- 48:48Speaker 3: going to take a leap because once they get pressed,
- 48:51Speaker 3: they get pressed to find out what else they're capable of.
- 48:54Speaker 3: And so yeah, I think that we're going to see
- 48:56Speaker 3: that now.
- 48:59Speaker 5: You need to see that.
- 49:01Speaker 3: I mean, for Chavus, you need to see that because
- 49:04Speaker 3: you know, we've still yet to see it from PJ,
- 49:06Speaker 3: and there were a lot of expectations on him. Okoye
- 49:10Speaker 3: has the defense was so good that it was not
- 49:13Speaker 3: a big talking point that Koye didn't get much time
- 49:15Speaker 3: this year. So hopefully this this year you see him
- 49:18Speaker 3: on more packages, you see him on more opportunities to
- 49:21Speaker 3: come in. He's got to learn the techniques just as
- 49:24Speaker 3: well as just using the freak talent, and so you know,
- 49:27Speaker 3: I expect more of a specialist role from him this year,
- 49:30Speaker 3: and hopefully you see him early because I would like to.
- 49:32Speaker 3: I'd like to see him taste blood because I think that, uh,
- 49:35Speaker 3: you know, that's kind of what we talked about PJ.
- 49:37Speaker 3: But Danny is, Danny does have a little twitch of
- 49:39Speaker 3: crazy in him, and that's what you need to see.
- 49:42Speaker 3: I mean, listen, you go back to Dan Cody that
- 49:45Speaker 3: guy had several touches are crazy and he was really good.
- 49:48Speaker 5: And so.
- 49:50Speaker 3: I mean, Okoye has got that, whereas PJ is more
- 49:52Speaker 3: mild manerd and calm and you're just you know, a
- 49:55Speaker 3: gentle giant.
- 49:56Speaker 1: He goes out there and just plays.
- 49:58Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 50:00Speaker 1: But the big thing is it's the with O Koye.
- 50:03Speaker 1: I expect him.
- 50:05Speaker 2: I expect the violence out of him, and that's the
- 50:06Speaker 2: thing that I just want to happen that I need.
- 50:09Speaker 1: To see him go out there and be violent. Yeah,
- 50:11Speaker 1: we haven't had that yet.
- 50:13Speaker 3: And guys, I mean, I'll just tell you, I think
- 50:15Speaker 3: A koy A probably by the end of the year
- 50:17Speaker 3: is probably going to be about the same exact size
- 50:19Speaker 3: ass PJ. You know, he put on some very very
- 50:23Speaker 3: very good weight pretty quickly. You just heard all the
- 50:26Speaker 3: good stuff as far as just like the twitch that
- 50:28Speaker 3: he has. So I mean, yeah, I'm excited for him too,
- 50:32Speaker 3: because we talked about it coming into this year. It's
- 50:35Speaker 3: crazy like this is going to be a really really
- 50:36Speaker 3: good defense and the more athletic and more gifted players
- 50:39Speaker 3: are sitting behind them, and so now it's time for
- 50:41Speaker 3: some of those guys to start sprinkling in because you
- 50:44Speaker 3: know they're going to need to be the leaders in
- 50:45Speaker 3: twenty six. So let's let's see some of these guys
- 50:49Speaker 3: get out there and start going crazy.
- 50:51Speaker 1: Yep. I need PJ to get healthy.
- 50:54Speaker 2: Ankle's been bothering him. He gets healthy, I think he
- 50:57Speaker 2: can be impactful. But I think Danny's going to be
- 51:01Speaker 2: a mutant. So you add him with Marvin Jones, R.
- 51:06Speaker 2: Mason Thomas. So PJ, Danny R, Mason Thomas, and Marvin Jones.
- 51:13Speaker 1: It's gonna be fun. I'm ready to see this defensive
- 51:16Speaker 1: line go out there and be really do some stuff.
- 51:21Speaker 3: And so, you know, I said this to somebody, and
- 51:25Speaker 3: I want to say it was Parker, but I said,
- 51:29Speaker 3: you know, oh, you could be the absolute, you know,
- 51:34Speaker 3: beneficiary of one of the coolest comeback tours ever seen
- 51:38Speaker 3: by Marvin Jones Junior. Because he was turning it on
- 51:41Speaker 3: at the end of the year. The maturity and all
- 51:43Speaker 3: that stuff got there.
- 51:44Speaker 5: He was a freak. He was a five star.
- 51:45Speaker 3: He was a guy that was probably head this way
- 51:48Speaker 3: to Lincoln Left Town. And so now you get to
- 51:53Speaker 3: come and I mean potentially end your career with you know,
- 51:57Speaker 3: Todd Bates, Javis Venables, you know, gym knowles, you know,
- 52:02Speaker 3: and that that's I mean, you come out and you
- 52:03Speaker 3: show out with you know, the potential that that defense
- 52:06Speaker 3: has this year. I mean, you're gonna you go from
- 52:09Speaker 3: five star flow up to you know, is it one
- 52:13Speaker 3: or day two?
- 52:15Speaker 5: That's the question.
- 52:16Speaker 3: He's the numbers at the combine. He's gonna put up
- 52:18Speaker 3: the numbers. He's going to put up insane numbers.
- 52:26Speaker 1: Regardless. And the beauty beauty is is that the the
- 52:31Speaker 1: defense has continued to show improvements, you're every year, and
- 52:35Speaker 1: I thought it was important.
- 52:37Speaker 5: Yeah, so we'll see it's.
- 52:45Speaker 3: And again we face six first time i mean new
- 52:49Speaker 3: starters at quarterback this year starting Week two with Michigan
- 52:52Speaker 3: and I'm talking I don't even know about Apple Loosa
- 52:57Speaker 3: State Week one or anything else like that. Like it's uh,
- 53:00Speaker 3: you know, the the actual teams that were playing. You know,
- 53:03Speaker 3: one of them is Jackson Arnold. But you know we're
- 53:06Speaker 3: gonna have a lot of first time quarterbacks and Brent Vinnables,
- 53:09Speaker 3: you know, I mean, he gets a chance to go
- 53:12Speaker 3: up against those guys. We saw what he did against
- 53:14Speaker 3: you know, Nico in year one with no no support
- 53:17Speaker 3: from the offense.
- 53:19Speaker 1: It's all you need competence on one side of the ball.
- 53:22Speaker 1: You can do it.
- 53:25Speaker 2: But I am in my mind today though, who here
- 53:31Speaker 2: in Lofton talk about Okoye?
- 53:33Speaker 1: That just gets me geeked.
- 53:36Speaker 3: Yeah, And you know, I think there was a lot
- 53:39Speaker 3: of stuff that I liked about what he said. Uh,
- 53:42Speaker 3: there's a lot of it felt like there was a
- 53:45Speaker 3: lot of frustration that was kind of coming out. And
- 53:46Speaker 3: I bet that he probably is going to have some
- 53:48Speaker 3: of that stuff that he wish he wouldn't had, wouldn't
- 53:51Speaker 3: had said, Like, yeah, I do think that. You know,
- 53:55Speaker 3: it's crazy to for a guy like Lofton. He was
- 53:59Speaker 3: a guy that it's not like he came from you know,
- 54:03Speaker 3: Fort Lauderdale or anything like that. Like he's a small
- 54:05Speaker 3: town guy and you know he shows up. He he
- 54:10Speaker 3: was a hard worker, He was a tough guy. He
- 54:12Speaker 3: was just that that game linebacker. Even in the NFL.
- 54:16Speaker 3: You look up, you're like, click, shit, Curtis Lofton is
- 54:18Speaker 3: a part of my French Curtis Lofton is leading the
- 54:21Speaker 3: league in tackles in the NFL, And.
- 54:23Speaker 5: It was crazy.
- 54:24Speaker 3: And it's hard for guys in that just that far
- 54:29Speaker 3: ago to handle the nil business here because Number one
- 54:33Speaker 3: they've got some measure of sour grapes because they didn't
- 54:36Speaker 3: have any of that stuff. But on the other hand,
- 54:38Speaker 3: it's they see what it's it feels like it's all about,
- 54:42Speaker 3: and he's he's tired of having those conversations over and
- 54:44Speaker 3: over and over again. And it was just, you know,
- 54:47Speaker 3: what Brent Vinibles wanted to create two years ago and
- 54:49Speaker 3: what the pathway.
- 54:51Speaker 5: Is now I think is slightly different.
- 54:53Speaker 3: And so that's why you're seeing a lot of changes
- 54:54Speaker 3: with Curtis stepping down, Josh Norman taking on, you know,
- 54:57Speaker 3: the charity in Oklahoma City as the Yeah, what is it?
- 55:01Speaker 5: He's the Borders.
- 55:02Speaker 2: He's a detecutive director over there at the Santa Fe
- 55:04Speaker 2: Family Center up there in edmund.
- 55:06Speaker 3: Yeah, so you know, I think they're doing some different
- 55:09Speaker 3: stuff with that. So but man, it just this thing
- 55:15Speaker 3: continues to mold because every single change you make, you
- 55:18Speaker 3: don't know if it's going to be a short term
- 55:20Speaker 3: or if it's going to be a long term change.
- 55:22Speaker 3: And that's hard for a guy like Curtis Lofton because it's, hey,
- 55:26Speaker 3: what scheme are we running? This is where my gap is,
- 55:28Speaker 3: That's where I'm heading. And it was like instructions, Instructions
- 55:32Speaker 3: follow instructions, and that's just it's harder. Yeah, he was
- 55:35Speaker 3: in NFL and he was he's a great mind. But
- 55:39Speaker 3: I mean there's it's no knock to him. I mean
- 55:41Speaker 3: just it's what he was hired for and what it
- 55:43Speaker 3: needs now or two different things.
- 55:45Speaker 2: Yeah, well we yeah, what we need now. The adjustment's
- 55:48Speaker 2: going to have to go a lot closer to an
- 55:52Speaker 2: NFL model. He mentioned that a little bit, and he's like,
- 55:53Speaker 2: it's not like the NFL right now, but at some
- 55:56Speaker 2: point it's going to have to get to that point.
- 55:57Speaker 1: He's going to get there.
- 55:58Speaker 2: And we know that that is what they're trying to
- 56:01Speaker 2: do with the front office. It's why they got Jake
- 56:02Speaker 2: Rosenberg consulting to help with designing the front office to
- 56:09Speaker 2: be able to handle the changes that are coming.
- 56:12Speaker 1: Like the changes haven't stopped.
- 56:14Speaker 2: There's going to be more and that's gonna probably happen
- 56:17Speaker 2: here over the next couple of weeks. So I say by.
- 56:20Speaker 1: Spring ball we'll probably have a better idea of what
- 56:23Speaker 1: twenty six is going to look like. Then we should
- 56:26Speaker 1: actually hear from the SEC about the schedule because I
- 56:28Speaker 1: would like to know what the schedule is going to
- 56:29Speaker 1: be and that that'd be awesome.
- 56:34Speaker 3: I think that at this point the SEC probably has
- 56:37Speaker 3: Plan A, B, and C because it's just like I said,
- 56:40Speaker 3: everything's evolving.
- 56:41Speaker 5: Everything's changing so quickly.
- 56:43Speaker 3: And I mean, guys, just think about how long ago
- 56:47Speaker 3: we were heading to the SEC and the playoffs were coming,
- 56:51Speaker 3: and now we're like year one in the playoffs and
- 56:53Speaker 3: you're already like, well, the next phase of this is
- 56:55Speaker 3: going to be what and this is going to continue
- 56:58Speaker 3: to move and I mean it's either going to be
- 57:01Speaker 3: cool or not cool.
- 57:08Speaker 1: Yeah, It's that's literally all we're doing is chasing the
- 57:16Speaker 1: next thing. It's exactly we don't even care about what's
- 57:20Speaker 1: happening today. To me, the twelve team was not bad.
- 57:26Speaker 3: I think there are adjustments that and again it's I
- 57:29Speaker 3: don't think that that committee needs to come out and
- 57:32Speaker 3: be like, well that was a failure or that was
- 57:34Speaker 3: an extra. You know, they can come out and you
- 57:37Speaker 3: know what they won't say is hey, there were some goods,
- 57:41Speaker 3: there were some bads.
- 57:41Speaker 5: We're having discussions. We want this to be the best thing.
- 57:44Speaker 3: We love the sport, we love the concept, we love
- 57:46Speaker 3: the opportunity to grants the athletes, and we just want
- 57:49Speaker 3: to make it the best thing that it can be.
- 57:51Speaker 1: I'm out, Yep, that's gonna be to me. If there's
- 58:01Speaker 1: one change I want to see.
- 58:02Speaker 2: Out of the playoff as we wrap this up, is
- 58:08Speaker 2: I want to see all of the rounds be on.
- 58:12Speaker 1: Home fields on campus until the final four.
- 58:19Speaker 3: Yeah, you had said that. I think I'd like to
- 58:21Speaker 3: see the buis go away again. I'm not sure this
- 58:24Speaker 3: is going to work. I mean, Roger Goodell keeps adding
- 58:28Speaker 3: NFL games like he's already talking about eighteen now, and
- 58:33Speaker 3: at some point the student athlete piece still has to
- 58:35Speaker 3: be a factor. These are still kids, right, there's still
- 58:39Speaker 3: this is still a big deal. And having six you know,
- 58:44Speaker 3: you know, six games in the playoffs, I mean, that's
- 58:46Speaker 3: a tough addition.
- 58:47Speaker 5: So what is it going to be. Is it going
- 58:48Speaker 5: to be one less non conference game?
- 58:51Speaker 3: Because I would like to see all those teams to
- 58:53Speaker 3: come out now the conference champions game, championships games, like
- 58:56Speaker 3: do we continue to do that because it's not an
- 58:58Speaker 3: equal playing field for everybody because you have a National
- 59:02Speaker 3: Championship Game attendee this year didn't have a conference so
- 59:05Speaker 3: they get to do whatever they want to do, and
- 59:07Speaker 3: they don't have to play that game. It's never going
- 59:09Speaker 3: to be an option for them. So I think Texas,
- 59:14Speaker 3: you know, I think Texas made it on a better
- 59:17Speaker 3: end of the bracket by not winning the the SEC
- 59:21Speaker 3: championship game.
- 59:22Speaker 5: So Ohio State wasn't even in it.
- 59:26Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 59:27Speaker 2: So the different thing though with It's the funny thing
- 59:31Speaker 2: when it comes to Notre Dame is Notre Dame plays
- 59:33Speaker 2: in two conferences. Technically they have a and they have
- 59:38Speaker 2: an a SEC and a Big ten schedule. They mainly
- 59:42Speaker 2: play a SEC to ACC teams, but they play well.
- 59:45Speaker 2: They actually played two SEC games and then the rivalry
- 59:50Speaker 2: game with USC and then the rest are a CC.
- 59:55Speaker 1: They technically play two.
- 59:59Speaker 5: They made the they made their rounds.
- 1:00:00Speaker 3: They just will never It's that part doesn't really super
- 1:00:03Speaker 3: bother me because that.
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: Make too much money on their own independence like it,
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: it makes no sense to it.
- 1:00:08Speaker 5: It's not going to happen change.
- 1:00:09Speaker 3: But I guess where I'm going with it is if
- 1:00:12Speaker 3: you take those buys away, you don't have to have
- 1:00:14Speaker 3: a deal.
- 1:00:14Speaker 5: With that conversation anymore.
- 1:00:15Speaker 3: You leave it, you know, on campus, And I mean, hell,
- 1:00:19Speaker 3: would it be cool for Benji You're in here like
- 1:00:23Speaker 3: that was great to have you know, you know, your
- 1:00:25Speaker 3: first round game in Austin, Like.
- 1:00:27Speaker 5: How would it be to start out with?
- 1:00:30Speaker 3: I don't know, Like if Kansas State come to Norman,
- 1:00:33Speaker 3: you beat them, and then next up you have Clemson
- 1:00:37Speaker 3: come to Norman. You know, Clemson come into Texas for
- 1:00:39Speaker 3: a playoff game. That was a freaking atmosphere and that's
- 1:00:42Speaker 3: something that you know, that entire crowd is the first
- 1:00:46Speaker 3: to ever do it, and it was that was a cool,
- 1:00:47Speaker 3: cool thing.
- 1:00:48Speaker 5: So let's uh, let's let's do that.
- 1:00:52Speaker 3: I want to see more home games and maybe less
- 1:00:57Speaker 3: mains or Iowa State or or not Iowa State, but
- 1:01:01Speaker 3: Illinois State.
- 1:01:02Speaker 2: I would definitely love to see more home games in
- 1:01:06Speaker 2: the playoffs. They're gonna probably expand it to fourteen, which
- 1:01:09Speaker 2: that's gonna piss me off, but whatever, can't do anything
- 1:01:11Speaker 2: about it. More playoff games doesn't make it better unless
- 1:01:14Speaker 2: they do like a playoffs through the conference, like you do,
- 1:01:19Speaker 2: like a conference playoff that leads into like you find
- 1:01:22Speaker 2: a way that in the season, What is a conference
- 1:01:24Speaker 2: playoff that leads into the actual nations championship playoffs. That's
- 1:01:30Speaker 2: the only way to meet that would make sense. So
- 1:01:35Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know.
- 1:01:39Speaker 5: You know, I don't know.
- 1:01:40Speaker 3: I don't know how to do it because again you
- 1:01:44Speaker 3: go to the sixteen teams, and I think that, you know,
- 1:01:47Speaker 3: the bowl games continue to lose their importance. Sure, people
- 1:01:50Speaker 3: still watch it because it's like what is there a
- 1:01:53Speaker 3: week where it's like twenty straight days of college football?
- 1:01:56Speaker 5: Like people love it?
- 1:01:57Speaker 3: Like that's that's people are going to continue to watch
- 1:01:58Speaker 3: college football to go back on it and to root
- 1:02:01Speaker 3: four teams or root for players. You know, I don't
- 1:02:04Speaker 3: know how many times I watched the bowl game because
- 1:02:05Speaker 3: an X Sooner was there. So but I do think
- 1:02:09Speaker 3: that the bowl games, you know, if you do till
- 1:02:12Speaker 3: the final four, I think then those bigger bowl games
- 1:02:15Speaker 3: than the Cotton Bowl really doesn't mean as much anymore,
- 1:02:17Speaker 3: or the Rose Bowl really doesn't mean as much anymore.
- 1:02:20Speaker 3: And you're only going to get two of those name
- 1:02:23Speaker 3: bowl games incorporated, because what are you gonna do, like
- 1:02:26Speaker 3: take you know, the number six SEC team versus the
- 1:02:30Speaker 3: number eight Big twelve team and put them in the
- 1:02:33Speaker 3: Fiesta Bowl Like that's you know, that's just where I
- 1:02:35Speaker 3: you know, because they're not in the playoffs, you know,
- 1:02:38Speaker 3: so that's where I I just question that part.
- 1:02:41Speaker 5: I do want to see more home game home games.
- 1:02:43Speaker 2: Though, Yeah so, And my point when it comes to
- 1:02:46Speaker 2: the playoff piece going down, like I think, is it
- 1:02:51Speaker 2: the is it FCS that does this, Like they don't
- 1:02:56Speaker 2: play I don't they don't play twelve games in the
- 1:03:00Speaker 2: season is probably reduced to like ten and then like
- 1:03:04Speaker 2: the last two is of like a fourteen playoff in
- 1:03:08Speaker 2: the conference to rank everybody at the end of the season,
- 1:03:11Speaker 2: and then the winner of the conference goes into the
- 1:03:14Speaker 2: final eight because I think there's eight see the FCS
- 1:03:18Speaker 2: or D two that does that. But anyway, they play
- 1:03:20Speaker 2: less games than what's played at this level while still
- 1:03:24Speaker 2: having teams feed into a playoff system that ends around
- 1:03:27Speaker 2: New Year's.
- 1:03:30Speaker 1: That would be cool. If we could figure out how
- 1:03:33Speaker 1: to do.
- 1:03:33Speaker 6: That, that would be really cool and then just rotate
- 1:03:39Speaker 6: around where the national championship is because to me, I
- 1:03:43Speaker 6: kind of want those bowl games to come back as
- 1:03:45Speaker 6: to just like other teams in the conference to go
- 1:03:48Speaker 6: that don't make it into the playoffs, I guess cause
- 1:03:51Speaker 6: those places are still fun to visit.
- 1:03:53Speaker 2: And go to the festivities of the bowl games. I
- 1:03:57Speaker 2: don't know there's a way that they can make that
- 1:03:59Speaker 2: playoff all the way down. It could go, It could
- 1:04:03Speaker 2: could it could work. Or you can do a playoff
- 1:04:05Speaker 2: system for P four and n G five separate. One
- 1:04:10Speaker 2: of the two will work.
- 1:04:12Speaker 5: Or you could have two super conferences.
- 1:04:15Speaker 1: Two super conferences will make it even easier.
- 1:04:17Speaker 3: So I mean, that's just kind of what you know,
- 1:04:18Speaker 3: that's the whole joke. The whole situation is we are
- 1:04:22Speaker 3: year one in the playoff and something's already looming. We
- 1:04:25Speaker 3: just don't know when, when it is and what it is,
- 1:04:28Speaker 3: but it is looming. And you know, again we haven't
- 1:04:32Speaker 3: heard any legal ACC talks, so now that college football
- 1:04:36Speaker 3: is wrapped up, we'll probably hear more of that kind
- 1:04:38Speaker 3: of coming in, you know, with this ACC and Florida
- 1:04:41Speaker 3: State and Clemson and everybody trying to leave like that's
- 1:04:44Speaker 3: that went pretty quiet for a while, but now in
- 1:04:46Speaker 3: the offseason usually when it chips up again.
- 1:04:49Speaker 5: Florida State probably should not say much.
- 1:04:51Speaker 3: This year because it's not like they held up their
- 1:04:55Speaker 3: own But I mean, this is is the I mean,
- 1:05:01Speaker 3: NFL and college football are still the top two sports
- 1:05:04Speaker 3: and gets the most following, and it gets people the
- 1:05:07Speaker 3: most insane, It invokes the most fandom, and so I
- 1:05:10Speaker 3: think that college football is somewhat and especially for the
- 1:05:15Speaker 3: bigger programs, and you know stuff. You know, luckily for
- 1:05:18Speaker 3: us is it's always going to find a way to survive.
- 1:05:22Speaker 3: Think of Jeff Goldbloom in Jurassic Park. You know, life
- 1:05:25Speaker 3: always finds a way, and so I mean, football always
- 1:05:29Speaker 3: finds a way.
- 1:05:29Speaker 5: And you know, it doesn't matter.
- 1:05:30Speaker 3: We've made it through so many different things in NFL
- 1:05:34Speaker 3: and college football over the past couple of years. I'm
- 1:05:36Speaker 3: almost to a point where I'm like, it won't matter,
- 1:05:38Speaker 3: Like people will hate it and they'll just shake their
- 1:05:40Speaker 3: fist at the TV.
- 1:05:42Speaker 5: Damn nil. All right, what times game next week?
- 1:05:45Speaker 2: You know, no matter what, people want to watch the
- 1:05:46Speaker 2: games because the games are still widely entertaining.
- 1:05:49Speaker 1: You're still widely entertaining.
- 1:05:51Speaker 2: So no matter what, we enjoy the games, there's not
- 1:05:54Speaker 2: much we could probably do about that. So all right,
- 1:05:58Speaker 2: let me go ahead and sing y'all all own home
- 1:06:01Speaker 2: and enjoy the rest of y'all's evening.
