And Brian, since you body, we
are back after a week off.

15
00:01:30,100 --> 00:01:33,600
How you feeling tonight, man,
I'm feeling great man, but I am

16
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:38,700
feeling we have so much to
unload, and I just look just the

17
00:01:38,700 --> 00:01:40,000
last.
What?

18
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:44,900
48, 50, 50 hours, man.
It's been only it.

19
00:01:45,100 --> 00:01:47,100
It's been a frenzy, it's been a
frenzy.

20
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,400
If we were, we were putting this
together.

21
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:51,900
This episode, we started putting
this together in the labs where

22
00:01:51,900 --> 00:01:54,900
you re like we got enough to get
this episode, but it might not

23
00:01:54,900 --> 00:01:57,000
be a long one than everything
happened as well.

24
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,600
Okay, we gotta we gotta we have
extra, you know 20 30 minutes.

25
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:02,300
We can we can pad on here and
talk about.

26
00:02:02,300 --> 00:02:06,200
So let's hope it's an extra 20
to 30 and not an extra like our

27
00:02:06,500 --> 00:02:08,699
because that could be
continually would happens

28
00:02:08,699 --> 00:02:12,100
tonight.
I mean, but hey, it's all the

29
00:02:12,100 --> 00:02:14,300
times.
That's how it goes man, and it's

30
00:02:14,300 --> 00:02:16,400
all good time.
That's one of the big things

31
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,700
about it.
This is you know, a lot of good

32
00:02:18,700 --> 00:02:22,100
stuff in this episode, a lot of
good good stuff and you know

33
00:02:22,100 --> 00:02:24,800
where we decided to kick it off
the night, was the stuff that

34
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,200
happened on Sunday and that is
all the commitments that came

35
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:33,200
down after a big OV weekend up
in Blacksburg and where the

36
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:37,500
Hokies got three commitments, to
the class of 2023.

37
00:02:38,300 --> 00:02:41,400
And with that subsequent
commitment, Brian, you know?

38
00:02:42,300 --> 00:02:47,100
We we looked and hovering about
40 Like we still said 35, but we

39
00:02:47,100 --> 00:02:50,900
knew there were some guys, we
could potentially land and I

40
00:02:50,900 --> 00:02:53,300
told you I looked after the
three guys committed.

41
00:02:53,300 --> 00:02:58,200
We were at 34, overall 33
composite in with those three

42
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:00,300
commitments, which we're going
to discuss here in a minute.

43
00:03:00,300 --> 00:03:03,800
We're up to 30 overall with the
24/7 and 33 composite.

44
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:09,700
So a massive jump for the Hokies
in the rankings and something

45
00:03:09,700 --> 00:03:13,600
that you.
You said a year ago, 30 to 35

46
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,900
next year's where I want us to
be slightly above where we

47
00:03:16,900 --> 00:03:19,400
finished last class often.
It seems like we're right on

48
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,900
that track for you.
Yeah, I mean, it looks like

49
00:03:21,900 --> 00:03:25,700
that's where we're trending
right now, you know, a big

50
00:03:25,700 --> 00:03:28,400
close, maybe another one or two
to kind of close that out.

51
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:32,600
Would be nice for sure.
It will be but, you know, we're

52
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,400
almost at a full boat at this
point.

53
00:03:35,500 --> 00:03:38,600
Yes.
We are, you know, I think we're

54
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:43,300
probably keeping one spot open.
See what happens with the

55
00:03:43,300 --> 00:03:48,500
certain Richmond Richmond earned
linebacker that will remain

56
00:03:48,500 --> 00:03:50,400
remain nameless for the time
being.

57
00:03:52,100 --> 00:03:53,600
He doesn't need to rename
nameless.

58
00:03:53,600 --> 00:04:00,600
I mean, you know, so but other
than him and maybe maybe one

59
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,900
other, you know, that's out
there that we either we've been

60
00:04:03,900 --> 00:04:08,700
following lightly or heavily the
last six to eight months.

61
00:04:09,900 --> 00:04:13,500
You know, this is kind of Kind
of what we're working with here.

62
00:04:14,500 --> 00:04:19,600
But I mean, three big ones over
the weekend, you know?

63
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:24,100
We heard about some of the, we
had a bunch back on bunch of

64
00:04:24,108 --> 00:04:26,600
commits that were back on campus
this weekend.

65
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,400
Yes.
They were had a good handful

66
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,800
that we were hoping to kind of
either Flip or close on this

67
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,400
weekend and we had a pretty good
percentage with that pretty good

68
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,600
percentage for this class and
the portal, which we're going to

69
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:40,700
just do the portal by itself
because it has its own Beach

70
00:04:40,700 --> 00:04:43,600
right now.
But let's Start frying with the

71
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:47,400
sort of lead dog that started
the trend on Sunday night.

72
00:04:47,500 --> 00:04:52,600
And you know, it's the
borderline for Star wide

73
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:57,100
receiver, Aiden, green out of
Powell Tennessee and Powell high

74
00:04:57,100 --> 00:05:02,000
school you know six foot and a
half hundred seventy pounds.

75
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:07,700
Held offers from Cincinnati.
You know, Arkansas, a lot of

76
00:05:07,700 --> 00:05:13,100
different places for this kid
and, you know, it was one of

77
00:05:13,108 --> 00:05:14,700
those.
They felt like if they could get

78
00:05:14,700 --> 00:05:17,200
on campus, once he decommitted
from Cincinnati.

79
00:05:17,700 --> 00:05:19,600
Yeah, I think they knew they
could get him.

80
00:05:20,100 --> 00:05:25,000
And next thing, you know why
live happens, you know, he's in

81
00:05:25,008 --> 00:05:28,800
the top five fifty four, the
country top 80 receiver, so

82
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,600
you're getting what's viewed as
a good player.

83
00:05:32,300 --> 00:05:34,400
Did you have a chance to look at
highlight reels?

84
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:37,400
Yeah.
I mean I think this is a guy

85
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:42,500
that could potentially come in
and be a potential immediate

86
00:05:42,500 --> 00:05:44,900
impact player.
I don't know if he's going to

87
00:05:44,907 --> 00:05:49,500
necessarily be kind of in that,
three or four man rotation, but

88
00:05:49,500 --> 00:05:52,500
I think he could definitely be
somebody that you're going to

89
00:05:52,500 --> 00:05:56,300
see out there in year.
One kind of doing some things

90
00:05:56,300 --> 00:05:58,900
for us.
Really good athlete.

91
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:03,900
I like his hands moves in and
out of his brakes.

92
00:06:03,900 --> 00:06:08,100
Well, so I think he's going to
be a big addition for this team,

93
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:12,600
whether he has immediate impact
in 23 or whether we're waiting

94
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,800
for 424.
Before we really see what he can

95
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:17,300
really do.
That's going to be the big

96
00:06:17,300 --> 00:06:20,400
question but very solid pick up
ya.

97
00:06:20,500 --> 00:06:22,700
Big question about a lot of
these guys and I think this is

98
00:06:22,700 --> 00:06:24,900
something we'll start finding
out the next few weeks is who's

99
00:06:24,900 --> 00:06:28,600
coming in early?
Obviously any time, I mean

100
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,600
early, you know that
immediately, you know, helps

101
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:35,000
them out and you know with with
green be and why don't there's a

102
00:06:35,100 --> 00:06:37,600
Mission of need, we know that.
So if he's able to come in and

103
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,800
pick up the Playbook quick
potentially there with him,

104
00:06:41,300 --> 00:06:45,700
Little underweight, you know,
I'm hoping he's one of the guys

105
00:06:45,700 --> 00:06:48,800
that chooses to enroll early
just to get quickly into a

106
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,700
weight program that maybe by the
end of next summer, he's put on

107
00:06:51,700 --> 00:06:55,800
ten to Fifteen of good weight
especially at a need position.

108
00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:00,400
If we're talking about guys that
we want to get in early, any

109
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,600
wide receiver, offensive,
lineman or DNA that we can get

110
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:05,500
in.
Early.

111
00:07:06,100 --> 00:07:10,200
Yep all the better.
Yep, and just an FYI.

112
00:07:10,300 --> 00:07:14,500
Primary recruiter man making
some hey lately fontelle Minds.

113
00:07:16,100 --> 00:07:20,100
You know does work on start to
put up walls around the 804 man,

114
00:07:20,500 --> 00:07:23,400
he is but walls.
Well let's talk about the guy

115
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:28,400
who essentially pulled out of
the 80 for and that was Jeremiah

116
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:36,500
Coney over at Hermitage I mean a
you know myth 3 star guy But,

117
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,200
you know, six foot and a half
hundred ninety four pounds.

118
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,800
Now, that way, that running back
dad makes him a little bit,

119
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,000
potentially more ready, out of
the gate?

120
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:47,400
We'll see what you think with
the film.

121
00:07:47,900 --> 00:07:50,800
You know, was initially
committed to Appalachian State

122
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,700
and it's one of those.
There's there are just certain

123
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:58,700
G5 schools in certain positions
if they recruit.

124
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:03,200
You feel like it's something for
ab State and how their run game

125
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:07,500
has been really the last decade.
Plus if you flip a running back

126
00:08:07,500 --> 00:08:10,700
from them you feel like you've
done something because you know

127
00:08:10,700 --> 00:08:13,300
they have a reputation.
What's the tape saying?

128
00:08:13,300 --> 00:08:20,900
So far on on him this is a guy
that you know, could push for

129
00:08:20,900 --> 00:08:24,500
some playing time early just
because you know we do kind of

130
00:08:24,500 --> 00:08:31,900
have a void in Kind of a bigger
body running back.

131
00:08:31,900 --> 00:08:35,100
Now, you know, we got we got
Thomas coming back, he's going

132
00:08:35,100 --> 00:08:37,799
to be the all-purpose, hopefully
can stay healthy Kings, very

133
00:08:37,799 --> 00:08:41,100
good, change of pace back.
We're looking for that kind of

134
00:08:41,100 --> 00:08:45,000
big body running back that has
some good Vision between the

135
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,100
tackles.
Do we end up addressing that in

136
00:08:47,100 --> 00:08:49,900
the portal?
Or are we going to kind of put

137
00:08:49,900 --> 00:08:54,400
that on a true freshman that's
coming in for us in Jeremiah?

138
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,800
Coney, because he's kind of in
that big body area, I think, you

139
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:02,400
know, So, we'll see if he can
kind of get closer to that 200

140
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:07,200
range if he comes in early and
on campus and has offseason with

141
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:10,700
us, but there's some potential
there as well.

142
00:09:10,700 --> 00:09:16,100
So I like his game, like I said,
you know, big body, good Vision

143
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,300
breaks tackles well.
So I think he's got some, some

144
00:09:20,300 --> 00:09:22,600
potential to be there.
But I mean, another solid pick

145
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:26,600
up fontelle mines, doing his
thing in the 80, for which we

146
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:28,600
love to see.
Absolutely.

147
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,700
Now do you see someone like him?
Do you think definitely running

148
00:09:31,700 --> 00:09:33,300
back?
Know we played some linebacker

149
00:09:33,300 --> 00:09:36,000
in high school but as he
definitely a running back in

150
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,200
your eyes.
Yeah I think he's definitely a

151
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,400
running back.
Just just his skill set.

152
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,700
Everything overall he's
definitely a running back.

153
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,400
I think he's got potential where
he can play on the other side

154
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:50,800
but I wouldn't unless it just
doesn't work at running back

155
00:09:51,500 --> 00:09:53,800
then then I wouldn't I wouldn't
entertain that.

156
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,400
Yeah.
And to that point, I'm looking

157
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:59,500
here scrolling up and down.
Stu Holt was his secondary so

158
00:09:59,500 --> 00:10:02,900
that even more kind of
solidifies likely going to be in

159
00:10:02,900 --> 00:10:07,300
the running back and stay in the
running back room once he gets

160
00:10:07,300 --> 00:10:11,700
to Blacksburg.
All right, so the last one was,

161
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:16,000
I think the most surprising, I
think with we heard greens going

162
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:20,100
to get on campus and Kony was
taking that trip after they both

163
00:10:20,100 --> 00:10:21,900
decommitted.
That was one of those.

164
00:10:21,900 --> 00:10:26,600
Okay, if we get them there, we
likely are going to flip.

165
00:10:28,100 --> 00:10:30,500
The other one came out of
nowhere because it was such a

166
00:10:30,500 --> 00:10:35,300
late addition that he was making
the visit and that is the

167
00:10:35,300 --> 00:10:38,900
quarterback out of Springfield
Central and Springfield Mass

168
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:43,800
William pop Watson.
The third, you know, a composite

169
00:10:44,500 --> 00:10:50,200
composite 3 star. 24/7 has a
three star quarterback in

170
00:10:50,300 --> 00:10:57,000
originally committed to Nebraska
and I know I can't remember who

171
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:58,500
made a comment.
About it.

172
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,500
So about Mark, Whipple more
equipped with more powerful,

173
00:11:01,500 --> 00:11:04,600
likes him as a quarterback.
You have some other stuff there

174
00:11:04,900 --> 00:11:09,000
and just overall I mean had
interest from programs like

175
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:14,100
Tennessee Oregon, Michigan,
Kentucky on and you don't know

176
00:11:14,100 --> 00:11:18,500
the level of interest but the
reality goes they were

177
00:11:18,500 --> 00:11:21,100
interested in and he lands in
Nebraska and Nebraska even the

178
00:11:21,100 --> 00:11:24,100
last three or four years, losing
a bunch of one score gains was

179
00:11:24,100 --> 00:11:27,900
still pulling top 15, you know,
talent-wise Yes.

180
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:32,000
And even though he's coming from
Massachusetts, it's not a big

181
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:36,800
football state.
We all know that, you know, but

182
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,200
occasionally you can find, you
know, Diamonds in the Rough from

183
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,100
Massachusetts.
And, you know, we Hokies know

184
00:11:43,100 --> 00:11:45,700
that very well.
But what do you thinking of

185
00:11:45,700 --> 00:11:47,900
Imran?
Yeah, I like this kid.

186
00:11:47,900 --> 00:11:50,600
A lot.
Like, looking at his game.

187
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,700
He's a true dual thread.
He's not just a running

188
00:11:53,700 --> 00:11:56,800
quarterback, he's not just a
pastor.

189
00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,800
He's a guy that can kind of Do
it all really good footwork,

190
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,800
really good.
Polished mechanics.

191
00:12:04,900 --> 00:12:10,900
As a quarterback for a high
school player consistent whether

192
00:12:10,900 --> 00:12:13,100
he's throwing on the run or
whether he's standing in the

193
00:12:13,100 --> 00:12:15,500
pocket.
So I mean that's good to see.

194
00:12:17,900 --> 00:12:20,800
Not great arm strength, but he
can make all the throws.

195
00:12:23,300 --> 00:12:26,100
Yeah, I mean, I think he's going
to be somebody that could

196
00:12:26,100 --> 00:12:28,200
potentially push for a starting
role.

197
00:12:28,300 --> 00:12:32,100
And again, a couple Seasons
right now, when you say polished

198
00:12:32,100 --> 00:12:36,000
passer is it does that just mean
it's refined when you don't see

199
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:37,800
it.
If someone's under his footage

200
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:42,600
still the same mechanism is that
with me, whether he's throwing

201
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,200
on the run, whether he's
standing in the pocket, Diet,

202
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:50,300
whether he's getting pressured,
that those mechanics, they say

203
00:12:50,300 --> 00:12:53,600
pretty, pretty close to the
same, which means that he's

204
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:57,500
going to be delivering a good
ball every time.

205
00:12:58,700 --> 00:13:04,000
Said, I mean there are occasions
where he'll miss but it's

206
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,300
consistent.
And when you can do something

207
00:13:06,300 --> 00:13:09,800
like that consistently, you can
kind of work on that the other

208
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,600
parts of the that contribute to
accuracy as you're kind of

209
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,300
building on that.
I got you got you.

210
00:13:15,700 --> 00:13:17,200
All right?
So with that, that takes to

211
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:23,000
class up to 23, total likely,
only 22 that will be on full

212
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,800
football scholarship.
You know, Jimmy Mullen the

213
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,300
wrestler, I know there's some
stuff.

214
00:13:28,300 --> 00:13:31,200
Out there that, you know, it's
one way or the other.

215
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,800
Sometimes they have to be
counted to football if they're

216
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:37,000
playing football.
But either way, I think you're

217
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:38,800
right.
I think we're just a handful of

218
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:43,000
guys away from finishing off
this class.

219
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,300
I don't know if it'll come
potentially next, Wednesday, or

220
00:13:46,300 --> 00:13:50,000
if it's going to be something
after the Wednesday day of

221
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:54,300
getting the additional players.
And obviously, the big one is

222
00:13:54,300 --> 00:13:56,100
sitting down and Verano right
now.

223
00:13:56,100 --> 00:14:01,300
And that would really be an
absolute cherry on top of this

224
00:14:01,300 --> 00:14:04,300
second class.
And also, the way this class is

225
00:14:04,300 --> 00:14:07,200
held together after not the best
on-field results.

226
00:14:08,300 --> 00:14:12,600
Yeah, I mean, especially, you
know, we talked about since the

227
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:16,800
season has ended between the the
in-home visits and the stuff

228
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,100
that's happened.
The last couple weeks on campus.

229
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,600
They've really done a good job
of kind of keeping everybody

230
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,200
together.
Keeping everyone on the same

231
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:31,200
page and kind of keeping Body in
the boat and committed and ready

232
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:34,300
to roll into the season
particularly guys that were

233
00:14:34,300 --> 00:14:39,600
getting some some decent push to
to do other things.

234
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,900
Thinking more of Lance Williams
and Dante love it here.

235
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:47,900
Yeah who do did get some some
other legitimate power 5 offers

236
00:14:48,700 --> 00:14:52,500
kind of down the stretch there
now so it'll be interesting.

237
00:14:52,500 --> 00:14:56,700
Will be obviously watching that
next Wednesday seeing what all

238
00:14:56,700 --> 00:15:00,700
happens.
But now, let's go to sort of the

239
00:15:00,700 --> 00:15:02,900
bigger story now, this time of
year, right?

240
00:15:03,300 --> 00:15:06,400
Because it's now that college
football has changed in the

241
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:08,000
portal.
Officially opened.

242
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:12,500
Its the main episode man poorly
season, it is the portal open

243
00:15:12,500 --> 00:15:15,400
roughly eight days ago after the
college football.

244
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:20,100
Playoff was announced and you
know, we had DJ Harvey go in

245
00:15:20,100 --> 00:15:24,900
before our last episode and
since then you know matthäus

246
00:15:24,900 --> 00:15:28,200
Carol looking Rudolph does Mamu
& Moss.

247
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:33,900
Armani Chapman, Enzo Anthony
Keyshawn artist.

248
00:15:33,900 --> 00:15:37,100
Jason Brown, Eli atoms and then
maybe the one that surprised us

249
00:15:37,100 --> 00:15:43,200
all was Caleb Smith other than
Caleb Smith Brian, anybody else?

250
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:45,900
Oh, shocker to you on that list
or made you go.

251
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:50,400
Hmm, no.
I mean the the ones that stand

252
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:54,800
out are probably Carol just
because he did get some run kind

253
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:58,200
of the start the season but he
had gotten I think kind of

254
00:15:58,300 --> 00:16:00,200
pushed a little further down the
depth chart than he would have

255
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:05,300
liked as the season went along.
I think Rudolph with how the

256
00:16:05,300 --> 00:16:08,000
linebacking corps, some of the
younger guys in the linebacking

257
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:15,200
corps of come along, You know,
it's just only so many mouths to

258
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,000
feed, right?
It's true.

259
00:16:17,700 --> 00:16:19,000
It's only so many mouths to
feed.

260
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:24,200
It's only, it's only so much of
what you can do in in the whole

261
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:26,100
approach this year.
It looked like from Brett

262
00:16:26,100 --> 00:16:30,200
practice, he mentioned a few
weeks ago, 30 to 35 guys.

263
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:32,700
He had to have conversations
with, that's a lot of people on

264
00:16:32,700 --> 00:16:35,900
the team, even if you get up to
the 120, that's roughly a

265
00:16:35,900 --> 00:16:41,100
quarter of your roster and you
know, it's Which Way can

266
00:16:41,300 --> 00:16:44,900
Conversation to go and then who
choose to go in the portal?

267
00:16:44,900 --> 00:16:46,600
I know.
I don't think we're done seeing

268
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,700
guys under the portal yet.
I have a feeling if you guys are

269
00:16:49,700 --> 00:16:53,500
probably going to enter some
time between now and the first

270
00:16:53,500 --> 00:16:58,300
of the year 325, they're
probably waiting for that that

271
00:16:58,300 --> 00:17:00,900
spring money to kick in and then
they'll figure that out.

272
00:17:01,500 --> 00:17:04,900
What is it?
Was we starting to see that.

273
00:17:04,900 --> 00:17:07,099
We know we're losing a lot of
guys, anyway, just because of

274
00:17:07,099 --> 00:17:08,700
the covid years going to be
gone.

275
00:17:08,900 --> 00:17:14,000
It did not take Take long for
this coaching staff to jump

276
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,500
right on it and get in there.
And the first one is, maybe

277
00:17:17,500 --> 00:17:20,700
somebody here that should have
been here a long time ago and

278
00:17:20,700 --> 00:17:24,400
currently, you know, I'm looking
at on three if you guys haven't

279
00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:27,900
checked out on three is really
dipping hard and do the transfer

280
00:17:27,900 --> 00:17:31,800
portal, like they are
essentially creating rankings

281
00:17:31,900 --> 00:17:36,900
stars and the Hokies quickly,
route the gate a guy that should

282
00:17:36,900 --> 00:17:39,400
have been here a long time ago.
Like I said, the number four

283
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:42,700
ranked portal entry Ali
Jennings.

284
00:17:42,900 --> 00:17:45,900
Everybody should know that name
very well played at Highland

285
00:17:45,900 --> 00:17:48,800
Springs went to West Virginia
and he played it Odie.

286
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:54,000
You two seasons in the you know,
this season, nine games over 950

287
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:58,300
yards, 50 for receptions nine
touchdowns almost 18, a

288
00:17:58,300 --> 00:18:04,400
reception, and it wasn't just
him sitting here.

289
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,000
Like all, he just beat up on the
little schools.

290
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:11,000
He just beat up on the schools
that don't have all the talent.

291
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:15,100
I mean, it was every school.
I mean, we saw what he did to us

292
00:18:15,100 --> 00:18:17,800
late in that game.
He beat Dorian strong on one of

293
00:18:17,808 --> 00:18:21,400
those under throwing balls.
He put 200 up against TCU, he

294
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:27,000
almost put 100 against UVA.
He put 129 on Liberty, the kid

295
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,700
bald.
And I think later in the year

296
00:18:29,700 --> 00:18:31,800
against Georgia, State and
Marshall, he did have his to

297
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,600
lesser games, but he hasn't
played since November.

298
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:37,100
So I had to go look and see if
maybe he got a little banged up.

299
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:41,000
But what up?
What a land for the first guy.

300
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:44,400
Portal to commit this season
Brian an immediate automatic

301
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:47,400
starter at wide receiver.
Yeah I mean that's a that's a

302
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:52,100
position upgrade right out the
gate and that's that's whether

303
00:18:52,700 --> 00:18:54,800
you know, the situation with
Kayla Smith ends up with him,

304
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:56,700
coming back to the Hokies next
year.

305
00:18:56,700 --> 00:18:59,300
Next year.
And not, you know, we talked

306
00:18:59,300 --> 00:19:04,000
about it when we previewed, ODU,
Ali Jennings is a legitimate NFL

307
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:08,400
caliber wide receiver.
He's got that type of skill set

308
00:19:09,300 --> 00:19:14,900
getting a guy like that at
Virginia Tech is huge.

309
00:19:14,900 --> 00:19:18,200
It's huge and it's definitely
one of those, it's a culture

310
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,400
Builder.
It's it, get your eyes on your

311
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:24,000
program.
It says, hey, this can be a

312
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,200
destination for this caliber of
player.

313
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:31,000
Yeah and it's great to see it
again.

314
00:19:31,500 --> 00:19:34,600
We continue to talk about the
8004 and Highland Springs and

315
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:36,800
Hermitage a on and schools like
that.

316
00:19:38,100 --> 00:19:42,700
I do have to say, I wonder how
much of the relationship

317
00:19:42,700 --> 00:19:45,100
building that's been happening
in that area.

318
00:19:45,700 --> 00:19:48,500
Came back and helped by in this,
when I mean, I know the fontelle

319
00:19:48,500 --> 00:19:50,300
minds connection was bigger,
right.

320
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:55,100
He can't find tail recruit him
down to ODU, but how big was

321
00:19:55,300 --> 00:19:57,500
maybe Lauren Johnson?
How big was that coaching?

322
00:19:57,700 --> 00:20:01,100
If we're print Prime that entire
staff is getting the trust from

323
00:20:01,100 --> 00:20:07,500
Highland Springs now, and phone
calls were made potentially Ali,

324
00:20:07,500 --> 00:20:10,200
I would have seen assume he
still speaks to his coaches in

325
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,900
high school like most guys do in
essence, it's the restoration.

326
00:20:13,900 --> 00:20:16,300
We're starting to see the fruits
of that labor come through.

327
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:22,300
Yeah I mean it's definitely kind
of built like I said building

328
00:20:22,300 --> 00:20:29,300
that Foundation that coach prize
tried to talk about like this is

329
00:20:29,300 --> 00:20:35,900
this is a culture building Type
move and hopefully you know this

330
00:20:35,900 --> 00:20:39,100
isn't the end of end of the run.
We're going to see some more

331
00:20:39,100 --> 00:20:44,400
big-time names get Get you put
in attached to the Hokies going

332
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,100
forward, man.
Absolutely.

333
00:20:47,100 --> 00:20:50,100
And it didn't take long last
night to that to happen to go

334
00:20:50,100 --> 00:20:54,800
ahead and get number two from
the portal and Chiron, drones a

335
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:58,500
6-foot 295 lb.
He is a coming in.

336
00:20:58,700 --> 00:21:00,500
You'll be a redshirt sophomore
next year.

337
00:21:00,500 --> 00:21:04,000
So three years of Eligibility
left out of Baylor.

338
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:09,800
We finally landed, the 4 Star
Quarterback out of Texas for

339
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:13,700
Star Quarterback out of Texas.
Wow.

340
00:21:13,700 --> 00:21:16,700
Yeah.
And so this is this is big for

341
00:21:16,700 --> 00:21:20,500
the Hokies because, you know, we
talked about quarterback being

342
00:21:21,300 --> 00:21:23,300
other than wideout being the
position.

343
00:21:23,300 --> 00:21:27,400
We had to Target in the portal
for especially from a skill

344
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:31,500
position standpoint.
At least someone to push Grant

345
00:21:31,500 --> 00:21:33,700
Wells, if not an upgraded
position.

346
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,900
I've looked at this guy's tape,
I think he's an upgrade from

347
00:21:36,900 --> 00:21:41,900
Grant Wells and in every aspect
he's got a live arm.

348
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,000
ERM.
He's got more athleticism.

349
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:48,400
He is strong as an ox by the
squat tape.

350
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:52,300
We see strong as yeah.
Yeah, I mean he's put up 585

351
00:21:52,300 --> 00:21:57,200
with I wouldn't say he's but
he's putting up 585 easier than

352
00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,600
most people do.
And and a lot of people that

353
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:05,200
have, you know, 60 to 80 pounds
on him, would put it up.

354
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:12,900
So Really, really strong player.
Saw some extended action against

355
00:22:12,900 --> 00:22:16,600
West Virginia did did really
well other than kind of a late

356
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,200
pick when he kind of got in
trouble in the backfield.

357
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:24,200
But did really well overall
against that defense had some

358
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,600
other games where he saw some
action this year.

359
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:33,600
So, overall, again, I think it's
a significant upgrade from from

360
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:37,200
Grant wells in terms of ceiling
if we're talking about Floor.

361
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,500
I think the floor is a little
higher than what what wells is.

362
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:44,600
Okay.
So higher floor and the ceiling

363
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:48,400
is, you know, much higher in
terms of what he can do, just

364
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,700
because he's got more
athleticism and he's stronger

365
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,300
and he still got the arm to go
with that.

366
00:22:54,700 --> 00:22:56,600
Do you?
Are you also going with a higher

367
00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:59,400
floor?
Because of I would say the less

368
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:03,400
baggage and I'm not trying to
like completely, not Grant, but

369
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,800
we knew Grant had a propensity
for turning the ball over. /.

370
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:12,400
This kid, he played in five
games, he's taking 20, he's

371
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:19,300
basically through 23 balls, you
know, is does that adjust your

372
00:23:19,300 --> 00:23:21,800
floor as well?
Because with Grant, we talked

373
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:26,200
about, we transfer, if he can
clean up the interceptions, it

374
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:28,400
would significant.
He keeps the higher production

375
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:33,200
with the passing can be okay.
Is that one reason you put that

376
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,800
floor a little bit higher
because of essentially, the lack

377
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:39,600
of maybe scar Shoo, I'll say
it's not just that I'll say it's

378
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:42,500
a couple things and I'll give a
shout-out to Chris Coleman on

379
00:23:42,500 --> 00:23:45,800
this when we talk about a
shifting in flaw and hell man.

380
00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:51,900
Oh, man, oh man, Chris calls,
the storm earlier earlier today

381
00:23:51,900 --> 00:23:56,200
already, but I'll let you go
ahead and continue with the Good

382
00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:56,600
Year.
Yes.

383
00:23:56,600 --> 00:24:00,700
So I can Christmas play.
When we talk about the shifting

384
00:24:00,700 --> 00:24:04,700
in philosophy, what I think
we're not going to see next year

385
00:24:04,700 --> 00:24:10,500
is as much of a Reliance or
over-reliance On the Run game

386
00:24:10,500 --> 00:24:13,800
and play action.
I think we're not changing

387
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:18,400
schemes, but we're changing
philosophy of how that scheme is

388
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,500
being executed in the game
playing week to week, okay?

389
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:26,200
So you're going to, you're going
to see some more run to pass the

390
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:29,700
set up the Run.
You're going to see the ball

391
00:24:29,700 --> 00:24:31,700
getting out of the hands of the
quarterback a little bit

392
00:24:31,700 --> 00:24:34,400
quicker.
You're going to see more running

393
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:38,300
with the quarterback whether
that's Read option things like

394
00:24:38,300 --> 00:24:40,100
that, you're going to, you're
going to see a little bit more

395
00:24:40,100 --> 00:24:44,500
of a mix and match of the
philosophies and less just

396
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:49,700
power, Run play action or dumped
down to the tight ends.

397
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:51,600
That there's not going to be
kind of that.

398
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:54,100
I mean.
And that was, you know, that was

399
00:24:54,100 --> 00:24:56,400
what we kind of rolled into the
season with were like, okay,

400
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,900
we're going to run the bowl,
we're going to work the short

401
00:24:58,900 --> 00:25:01,300
passing game to the tight ends,
to try to move the sticks.

402
00:25:01,300 --> 00:25:04,900
And we're going to take deep
shots down the field to try to

403
00:25:04,900 --> 00:25:06,500
get some quick strikes through
the air.

404
00:25:07,500 --> 00:25:10,900
And it was, it was very it was
it was literally Hit or Miss.

405
00:25:11,500 --> 00:25:15,100
If we hit a big gain in the Run
game, if we were able to hit

406
00:25:15,100 --> 00:25:18,600
some of those big game big gains
in the passing game, we looked.

407
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:23,500
Alright when those weren't there
and they started keying in on

408
00:25:23,500 --> 00:25:26,300
the tight ends and we couldn't
run between the tackles it

409
00:25:26,300 --> 00:25:28,600
looked as ugly as an often says
it could.

410
00:25:29,500 --> 00:25:32,100
What you're getting with drones
is the ability to open that up

411
00:25:32,100 --> 00:25:34,800
some more both with his
athleticism and with his arm.

412
00:25:35,700 --> 00:25:39,500
So it's a lot of What you're
saying is with this shift,

413
00:25:39,500 --> 00:25:42,600
especially with the running
probably more RPO quick passes.

414
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,900
Essentially, you're forcing an
additional either linebacker.

415
00:25:45,900 --> 00:25:49,900
Safety to commit to the inside
versus with Grant.

416
00:25:49,900 --> 00:25:53,200
Even though we're there were
times when they let him run, he

417
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:56,400
did pick up some yards.
This is truly that dual threat

418
00:25:56,400 --> 00:26:00,800
that a lot of people clamor for
a true dual threat and I again

419
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:02,500
you said RPO and that's what
it's going to be.

420
00:26:02,500 --> 00:26:06,900
We're going to we're going to be
putting linebackers and Those

421
00:26:06,900 --> 00:26:12,400
kind of spill Area players in a
lot more conflict this year with

422
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:16,300
with a player like drones.
All right, well, for everybody

423
00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:21,900
spring is going to be fun.
Yeah, we got a big big draw to

424
00:26:21,900 --> 00:26:27,400
the spring game, now, big draw
because we got to admit them to

425
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,300
Big pieces that are getting
added to that offense.

426
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:34,400
Abso-freakin'-lutely, I want to
flip next Brian and we kind of

427
00:26:34,408 --> 00:26:37,000
already hit this while going
through the Old.

428
00:26:37,300 --> 00:26:41,200
But kind of the farewell to
certain Hokies and, you know, we

429
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:43,900
already talked about, you know,
Jason Brown.

430
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:48,800
We talked about our mining
Chapman but, you know, Jalen

431
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:52,600
Holston had now Drake due to his
head.

432
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:56,900
Now, Jaden blue and it looks
like Caleb Smith, he's in the

433
00:26:56,900 --> 00:27:01,500
portal, does he come back to us?
He go elsewhere, obviously Silas

434
00:27:01,500 --> 00:27:04,500
Kinsey and Johnny on the
offensive side of the ball

435
00:27:04,500 --> 00:27:09,000
garbage and Griffin Dax
tomorrow, He Connor free on

436
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:15,700
Marine DJ Harvey, you know, when
we look at this that's some

437
00:27:15,700 --> 00:27:18,100
production guide.
Are you guess it?

438
00:27:18,100 --> 00:27:22,000
Will you look up and down there
guys who are star most of that

439
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:27,300
production is Smith and then big
the big veterans on defense, the

440
00:27:27,300 --> 00:27:31,900
big that's on defense along with
steady play from Silas and

441
00:27:31,900 --> 00:27:35,500
Johnny but as we look at this
and you know you say farewell to

442
00:27:35,500 --> 00:27:41,400
them I don't think with this
list, maybe, with the exception,

443
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:46,700
maybe, with the exception of
Garbutt, There's not like a

444
00:27:46,700 --> 00:27:49,700
glaring glaring I think we all
now.

445
00:27:49,700 --> 00:27:53,800
We see Chris Marv and we see you
know, Chris Marsh coach the

446
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,200
linebackers that you need to
have better this year.

447
00:27:56,900 --> 00:28:00,200
The safety units got better.
We saw the young guys play.

448
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:03,600
We're doing young guys.
Played the better.

449
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:13,300
The unit's?
God Oh man okay hey you go at

450
00:28:13,300 --> 00:28:17,700
your pace man.
I mean are we watching the same

451
00:28:17,700 --> 00:28:19,300
tape?
I mean it's true.

452
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:23,100
The the more they got acclimated
and I'm not just saying that the

453
00:28:23,100 --> 00:28:24,600
veterans didn't get the job
done.

454
00:28:25,100 --> 00:28:29,300
A lot of them did they played
well but the the more that we

455
00:28:29,300 --> 00:28:35,200
got the up-and-coming players
involved in the the defense The

456
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:38,100
more consistent that defense
looked both, I'd say the

457
00:28:38,100 --> 00:28:43,000
linebackers and the safety and
cornerbacks in particular I

458
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:46,600
think defensive line, it was
more of a mixed bag, right?

459
00:28:48,700 --> 00:28:52,600
Just somebody telling you that
that Bryant Cobbs is agreeing

460
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:53,900
that this is an accurate
statement.

461
00:28:53,900 --> 00:28:56,500
Brian.
Just so, you know, somebody out

462
00:28:56,500 --> 00:28:58,500
there is an agreement with you.
Well, wolf.

463
00:28:58,500 --> 00:29:01,000
Let's look on the offensive side
of the ball and let's look

464
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:04,200
especially at the line.
And it seemed like every time

465
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,500
Braylon, well, he had his
errors, but there were times

466
00:29:06,500 --> 00:29:10,000
when it came to running game.
He was just monster and people.

467
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,800
And we saw Xavier chaplain in
that last game and Xavier.

468
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,000
Chaplain played one game.
So you're talking about, get

469
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:19,500
them acclimated, and I think I
mentioned something to you from

470
00:29:19,500 --> 00:29:23,500
day is Brent, I decided to build
this from the inside out, not

471
00:29:23,500 --> 00:29:29,000
the outside in and I don't, and
I really think that's why we're

472
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:33,000
seeing what we saw last year
because he's essentially, In the

473
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:36,600
culture inside, right?
If you creates the culture

474
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:41,600
inside and you build everybody
here versus bringing a bunch of

475
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:45,400
people in Well, I think it's I
think it's twofold.

476
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:50,600
So I think when we look at it we
knew there were holes last year,

477
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:54,600
we fill the holes that had to
absolutely had to be filled with

478
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:58,300
what we could fill it with and
what the philosophy was at the

479
00:29:58,300 --> 00:30:01,900
time.
But what I like that I'm seeing

480
00:30:01,900 --> 00:30:06,700
from this staff is, you know,
you said building from the

481
00:30:06,700 --> 00:30:12,100
inside but also the ability to
evaluate pivot and put a plan in

482
00:30:12,100 --> 00:30:16,900
place and then eat that plan.
So we're already seeing it now

483
00:30:16,900 --> 00:30:20,700
with, you know, with getting
drones in with getting Jennings

484
00:30:20,700 --> 00:30:24,100
and we've identified the areas
of need.

485
00:30:24,100 --> 00:30:28,300
We've identified the missteps
and philosophy relative to the

486
00:30:28,300 --> 00:30:30,800
talent that we have on the
roster right now and where we

487
00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:36,000
can address that talent.
And we're adjusting and putting

488
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,300
a plan in place to execute.
Yeah, and so far, we're

489
00:30:39,300 --> 00:30:42,700
executing that playing pretty
well in terms of the guys that

490
00:30:42,700 --> 00:30:45,300
we needed to close.
Out for the 23 class, and who we

491
00:30:45,300 --> 00:30:49,500
needed to prioritize in the
transfer report.

492
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:51,600
All right, well, I'm going to
ask this and this is going to go

493
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:54,100
back to the portal peace while
we talk about.

494
00:30:54,100 --> 00:30:55,900
Obviously, you're losing to good
offensive.

495
00:30:55,900 --> 00:31:01,000
Lineman we saw Chapman more play
you got Clements again, finally,

496
00:31:02,100 --> 00:31:05,000
going up versus down.
Finally, at the end of the

497
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,300
season, he wasn't awful at the
end of the season.

498
00:31:07,300 --> 00:31:11,700
He was just mid which I mean, if
he'd have been made all year

499
00:31:11,900 --> 00:31:15,700
shit.
Okay, we would have been a

500
00:31:15,700 --> 00:31:18,200
little better.
But let me ask this because what

501
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,000
we haven't seen, and we don't
hear much buzz from her.

502
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:24,500
I haven't is we're not hearing a
lot of Buzz with the offensive

503
00:31:24,500 --> 00:31:27,600
line.
The big thing to me is that

504
00:31:28,100 --> 00:31:30,700
targeting in the portal with the
with the Lyman is a little bit

505
00:31:30,700 --> 00:31:34,400
more difficult than some of the
other position groups because

506
00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:39,900
it's a lot harder to get a good
eval of guys that aren't

507
00:31:39,900 --> 00:31:43,500
starters on other teams right
now.

508
00:31:44,100 --> 00:31:49,500
So you're either looking at
taking a chance on a guy that is

509
00:31:49,500 --> 00:31:54,400
going to be stepping up a level
whether it's FCS or G5 or you're

510
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:58,800
taking it even bigger wrist on
And a guy at the power 5 level,

511
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:06,500
that's only been a rotational or
full-time second-stringer for a

512
00:32:06,500 --> 00:32:09,200
P5 program.
So I'm thinking there might be

513
00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:13,100
something where he's taking a
little bit longer to eval, and

514
00:32:13,100 --> 00:32:15,900
bring to see offers later now, I
hope we don't end up, missing

515
00:32:15,900 --> 00:32:19,800
out on cream of the crop guys,
because of that.

516
00:32:20,300 --> 00:32:25,200
But I get a conservative
approach in terms of evaluation

517
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:27,200
because part of the problem.
Them that we ran into this

518
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:30,700
year's.
We had guys that didn't fit what

519
00:32:30,700 --> 00:32:34,300
we really needed to do from a
philosophy standpoint.

520
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:39,400
And it took a longer time for
that to jail for them to get

521
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:41,300
comfortable with the system and
things like that.

522
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,800
Alright, alright, so we'll see
how that goes over road.

523
00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:51,500
We have about trying to do the
math here about 37 days until

524
00:32:51,500 --> 00:32:54,600
the portal officially closes,
which is again.

525
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:58,100
I think I know this Is that one
thing you're happy about?

526
00:32:58,300 --> 00:33:00,400
It's got an opening date in the
closing date.

527
00:33:01,300 --> 00:33:04,300
You can't just be committing in
the middle of the Year.

528
00:33:04,300 --> 00:33:08,300
These are the times.
All right, couple other notes

529
00:33:08,900 --> 00:33:11,700
concerning football.
One other note.

530
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:16,400
I'm glad Mansoor d'Alene got
name to a freshman All-American

531
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:20,900
team that kid deserved as a 24/7
freshman All-American team.

532
00:33:22,300 --> 00:33:24,200
You know, obviously not a
consensus or anything with

533
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:28,200
multiple lines but at least one
did recognized his talent.

534
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:32,600
So kudos to him again, makes you
feel better about that secondary

535
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:39,200
room as we get into 2023.
Another thing to note on because

536
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:41,100
we're going to talk oops here in
just a second.

537
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,500
What a win?
I don't know if you got to see

538
00:33:44,500 --> 00:33:48,100
this problem but what a win for
the Hokies on the map.

539
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:52,200
The Hokie wrestling team takes
out number seven.

540
00:33:52,200 --> 00:34:02,100
Missouri at home on Sunday 1715.
This was the second time in, as

541
00:34:02,100 --> 00:34:03,500
many years, they've upset
Missouri.

542
00:34:03,500 --> 00:34:08,600
Missouri is a top program in the
country especially after coming

543
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:11,000
off that the heartbreaker to
Ohio State.

544
00:34:13,300 --> 00:34:16,100
This this team's good.
That's all you can say they're

545
00:34:16,100 --> 00:34:20,900
good and hopefully some you know
hopefully national championships

546
00:34:20,900 --> 00:34:23,500
come out of it, this year.
Yeah.

547
00:34:23,500 --> 00:34:26,199
I mean, I think this is another,
I mean top to bottom.

548
00:34:26,199 --> 00:34:28,400
It might be a better Squad than
last year.

549
00:34:28,900 --> 00:34:32,400
I think it's a deeper Odd.
We'll see if, if it's as

550
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:34,500
top-heavy.
I think I think it can be.

551
00:34:37,100 --> 00:34:40,600
And, you know, you, you pushed
Ohio State to the Limit, you got

552
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:44,800
a big win at Mizzou.
So I think that, you know, we're

553
00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:48,400
moving in the right direction
here, it's going to be

554
00:34:48,408 --> 00:34:51,199
interesting because, you know,
over the next few weeks, you

555
00:34:51,199 --> 00:34:56,500
know, they've got, they got
Stanford, the Cornell and in

556
00:34:56,500 --> 00:34:58,800
January to me pretty big
Cornell, another good wrestling

557
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:02,200
program.
And then obviously, we look at

558
00:35:02,300 --> 00:35:06,700
early mid January with NC State.
You know, essentially the slowly

559
00:35:06,700 --> 00:35:12,600
but surely becoming the
wrestling rival at Virginia Tech

560
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:15,600
in in the ACC.
All right, let's talk some

561
00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:17,100
hoops.
An expert on, let's flip it over

562
00:35:17,100 --> 00:35:19,600
and let's talk about the men's
team first.

563
00:35:20,900 --> 00:35:23,700
We looked at this stretch of
games that they had to go

564
00:35:23,700 --> 00:35:26,700
through starting at Minnesota,
which we got to talk about, and

565
00:35:26,700 --> 00:35:32,500
we said, go 500, great.
Go three in one hoorah.

566
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:39,600
But to go for an, do you know
beating Minnesota, handedly

567
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:45,600
beating UNC Beating the brakes
off of Dayton and then a game.

568
00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:49,500
And you got to watch together in
the second half on Sunday, be no

569
00:35:49,500 --> 00:35:51,200
key State.
I mean, let's talk with you and

570
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:55,800
see what a win in general
against the Tar Heels.

571
00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:58,800
You know, you take a look at
that game.

572
00:35:59,500 --> 00:36:03,200
The Hokies really dominated till
about the 4-minute mark in the

573
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:07,500
second half and North Carolina
made their run to get back in

574
00:36:07,500 --> 00:36:10,900
it.
But, you know, Justin what's in

575
00:36:10,900 --> 00:36:15,600
the second half, 21 points, grat
gets a double double.

576
00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:18,400
You know, what else, did you see
from that game?

577
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:22,300
That really impressed you on
that Sunday and unfortunately,

578
00:36:22,300 --> 00:36:24,900
they keep giving a Sunday games,
which is, you know, thank God.

579
00:36:24,900 --> 00:36:28,800
We have man caves or we can
watch multiple games at once but

580
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:32,500
a number a over when the, when
we were wrapping up the game

581
00:36:32,500 --> 00:36:35,200
against Okie state, so I know
you're great.

582
00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:38,600
Your setups, great did.
It was, we're watching the NFL

583
00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:41,100
games and we're keeping an eye
on the Hokies game.

584
00:36:41,100 --> 00:36:44,700
So, it was it's That you got to
have at least three TVs, guys.

585
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:49,000
It's just a rule.
Yeah, so I mean, look at the

586
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:50,900
UNC.
I mean I know they were short of

587
00:36:51,100 --> 00:36:55,700
Armando be cut so you know, they
were one down but I think we did

588
00:36:55,700 --> 00:37:00,800
a good job of taking advantage
of that and you know muds

589
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:04,200
beating them up in the boards
that was huge.

590
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:10,600
And just overall keeping them in
check and not really.

591
00:37:11,100 --> 00:37:15,800
Letting the moment get too big
when they started that run.

592
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:20,600
They said, okay, the runs here,
whether it and we've seen that a

593
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:25,300
lot from this team this year.
They've given up some leads but

594
00:37:25,300 --> 00:37:29,100
they generally weathered the
storm and then been able to kind

595
00:37:29,100 --> 00:37:32,200
of close things out.
And as they did here, they

596
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:37,200
weathered that lead, you know.
On a Couture, liked it up from

597
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,700
three.
We whack keep talking about that

598
00:37:39,700 --> 00:37:43,100
47.
We were 37 against Carolina, a

599
00:37:43,100 --> 00:37:45,400
couple more percentage points
lower and maybe it's a different

600
00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:49,200
outcome of.
Maybe it's a lot tighter, but

601
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:53,700
you know, I think what's
happening is we know we need a

602
00:37:53,707 --> 00:37:56,500
second ball handler because
that's normally.

603
00:37:56,500 --> 00:37:58,400
Like, that's only when it starts
happening.

604
00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:01,200
Right, getting a little sloppy
with the ball.

605
00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:03,800
May be a turnover, may be
forcing a bad shot because of

606
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:07,700
not moving the ball correctly.
Turnover and a little bit of

607
00:38:07,900 --> 00:38:11,700
some transition.
And, and perimeter defense,

608
00:38:11,700 --> 00:38:15,400
which I mean is also kind of
going back into, all right, is

609
00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:18,500
our is our primary ball handler
in our secondary ball, hindered

610
00:38:18,500 --> 00:38:21,900
getting gassed as we get later
in these games.

611
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:24,300
Yeah.
That'd be, that's the answer.

612
00:38:24,300 --> 00:38:28,100
Yes.
So Rodney rice when he's ready

613
00:38:28,100 --> 00:38:34,200
to go.
That's the big one that's by the

614
00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:34,800
New Year.
Hopefully.

615
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:38,000
By the time we're releasing them
up in the New Year.

616
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:41,200
Absolutely.
So 80 72 Victory there.

617
00:38:41,500 --> 00:38:45,300
The dating game, I did not watch
a minute of this game, I don't

618
00:38:45,300 --> 00:38:49,700
even listen to it on the radio.
I was out of town for business.

619
00:38:51,100 --> 00:38:53,300
Come back to eat, come back out
to eat.

620
00:38:53,300 --> 00:38:54,700
And I'm like, well, let me get
on my phone.

621
00:38:54,700 --> 00:38:57,400
Let me see what the score is.
And I was like, it was a sports

622
00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,100
bar down the street.
I'm like, they probably have it.

623
00:39:00,500 --> 00:39:02,500
By the time I got in, we were
up, 18.

624
00:39:02,900 --> 00:39:04,800
Let's just say, needless to say,
I didn't go back.

625
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:08,600
Check out to lunch 18-point
blowout because they just had

626
00:39:09,100 --> 00:39:10,600
and I don't think we expected
this.

627
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:15,300
We expect the dating to be At
least a formal opponent.

628
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:18,600
They just took it too.
Well, they were predicted to

629
00:39:18,607 --> 00:39:20,800
finish what one or two in the
A-10.

630
00:39:21,100 --> 00:39:24,700
Yeah, I'll let you go down it
and they're not going to fit in

631
00:39:24,700 --> 00:39:25,900
there.
Not going to finish their.

632
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:30,600
I'll although I a 10 as a whole
is down this year.

633
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:37,900
So do with that what you will.
But but still it's importantly,

634
00:39:37,900 --> 00:39:40,100
I mean, you still got to take
care of your business, right?

635
00:39:40,100 --> 00:39:44,400
I mean, that's still a solid.
Solidly talented date and team,

636
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:47,700
they're not garbage.
No, but we bet we made him look

637
00:39:47,700 --> 00:39:49,200
that way.
Made with that way.

638
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:53,100
You almost beat a team by 30
from the, a 10.

639
00:39:53,100 --> 00:39:56,100
It says a lot, especially if
it's a day to VCU.

640
00:39:56,200 --> 00:40:00,600
Those type teams from the A-10.
And, again, I didn't you have to

641
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:04,000
go back out.
I just sat there and I can't

642
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:06,400
remember what game was on TV.
I watch that and just kind of

643
00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:09,400
updated and it grew bigger, and
he grew bigger, and it was like,

644
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:11,400
more have mercy.
We're gonna beat em up, 40,

645
00:40:11,700 --> 00:40:16,500
which almost has is Roma.
All right, let's talk about the

646
00:40:16,500 --> 00:40:18,100
game.
We got to catch the second half

647
00:40:18,100 --> 00:40:22,100
together on Sunday, the Oklahoma
State versus Oklahoma State.

648
00:40:22,100 --> 00:40:24,800
Cowboys, I watched the first
half.

649
00:40:24,900 --> 00:40:26,700
We give me a to come over to
your house.

650
00:40:28,100 --> 00:40:30,500
Bad point lead.
This is good.

651
00:40:30,700 --> 00:40:36,700
I get to your house and that
lead is all, but gone in an Okie

652
00:40:36,700 --> 00:40:40,500
State's favor and I was like,
Brian, what's happened?

653
00:40:40,500 --> 00:40:45,800
You know, what the heck happened
in these first few minutes that

654
00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:47,800
I missed and you were kind of
hanging out there.

655
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:50,900
I mean the first in the first
half we were you know they had a

656
00:40:50,908 --> 00:40:54,200
lot of turnovers.
We were able to take advantage

657
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:57,100
of some of them probably not as
much as we should have and lead

658
00:40:57,100 --> 00:40:58,900
the first half.
Have been probably bigger than

659
00:40:58,900 --> 00:41:03,900
it was and then in the second
half, you know, you come out,

660
00:41:03,900 --> 00:41:06,600
you missed a couple bad shot,
you have a couple bad turnovers

661
00:41:07,100 --> 00:41:12,200
and their hidden right there.
Clicking on the offensive end at

662
00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:14,600
least early in that that second
half.

663
00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:18,500
They hit a about two or three,
threes in back-to-back.

664
00:41:18,500 --> 00:41:22,600
Possessions.
We weren't putting points on the

665
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:24,500
board.
We are having some in a lot of

666
00:41:24,500 --> 00:41:28,200
empty possessions.
And that kind of that that cuts

667
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:29,800
into a nine-point lead real
quick.

668
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:33,700
Yeah it does.
Well we look up I remember when

669
00:41:33,700 --> 00:41:35,700
me and you were sitting there
talking it was like a they

670
00:41:35,700 --> 00:41:39,600
essentially had went on a 21-day
run to open the second half and

671
00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:41,900
it's completely flipped.
It took the lead on themselves

672
00:41:41,900 --> 00:41:44,000
but give this team a lot of
credit.

673
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:47,300
Give a lot of the different.
A lot of different players on

674
00:41:47,300 --> 00:41:51,300
this team credit as well because
they really showed a lot of

675
00:41:51,300 --> 00:41:54,900
heart.
A lot of an old term we don't

676
00:41:54,900 --> 00:42:01,100
use anymore but a lot of Grit,
you know, you had kid, give

677
00:42:01,100 --> 00:42:03,800
solid minutes off the bench even
though he didn't score much,

678
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:10,100
same with Michael Collins
poteete, eight points 6, boards

679
00:42:10,700 --> 00:42:13,300
played some good position,
defense down low.

680
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:17,900
He made their cannot think of
the guys name there.

681
00:42:17,900 --> 00:42:21,900
Big guy Boone, maybe he made him
work.

682
00:42:22,500 --> 00:42:25,700
He had to work for his points in
the second half, especially

683
00:42:25,700 --> 00:42:27,900
later.
And then, all of a sudden, about

684
00:42:27,900 --> 00:42:33,200
three minutes tie ball game.
Basically, the Hokies just go on

685
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:39,400
lock, essentially outscore them
6:48 in the final three plus

686
00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:44,800
minutes and in this game in
reality, you look around, you

687
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:48,900
know, mutts had a solid game,
the seal has Grand, how solid

688
00:42:48,900 --> 00:42:52,500
game Padula?
Had a solid game, this wasn't

689
00:42:52,500 --> 00:42:55,800
like you and see where months,
it was months and a few games

690
00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:59,300
ago it It was Padula and earlier
in the season, it was Grant,

691
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:04,300
this was essentially that game
where it was, it was all parts

692
00:43:04,900 --> 00:43:07,800
and it had to be all parts just
because of what happened with

693
00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:09,700
that run early in the second
half.

694
00:43:10,100 --> 00:43:14,800
Yeah, I mean you had a couple
guys in foul trouble months had

695
00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:17,300
to go out for a good portion of
the second half.

696
00:43:18,700 --> 00:43:23,100
So that's why you had guys like
kids step up, poteete Step Up.

697
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:29,200
Obviously Grant had a good game.
We saw Padula hit a couple big

698
00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:32,300
shots there.
When we were down to kind of get

699
00:43:32,300 --> 00:43:34,800
us back even then get us, get us
the lead.

700
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:39,100
So I mean it was it was a
all-hands-on-deck effort to

701
00:43:39,100 --> 00:43:42,500
close that one out and we've had
a couple of those this year so

702
00:43:42,500 --> 00:43:45,400
far that I think it prepared us
for that type of atmosphere when

703
00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:48,400
we get into ACC play.
Absolutely.

704
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:52,400
I think some of these games they
rack our nerves.

705
00:43:52,500 --> 00:43:56,500
They may He make us go a little
senile little bit crazy, but

706
00:43:56,500 --> 00:43:58,000
reality is you just said it
brown.

707
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:01,500
There's gonna be games under 5
minutes in the ACC, and it's a

708
00:44:01,508 --> 00:44:04,800
one or two point game, or a tie
game and the seams went through.

709
00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:08,700
It already the know how to lean
on things, so we see that we see

710
00:44:08,700 --> 00:44:11,300
in the Penn State.
Now, it took care of you state.

711
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:17,000
Yep.
And finally, finally, finally

712
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:20,700
Braun after going 10 and 11,
they finally get ranked this

713
00:44:20,700 --> 00:44:24,900
week, number 24.
Yeah, I still got time.

714
00:44:25,300 --> 00:44:28,400
Yeah, they should have been 24
last week.

715
00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:31,400
Hopefully in probably 20 this
week, but it is what it is.

716
00:44:32,300 --> 00:44:35,700
Next game up, is Grambling
State, which is next Saturday

717
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:39,000
and I think BC is next,
Wednesday, Grambling State is

718
00:44:39,008 --> 00:44:42,400
going to be a sneaky good
matchup.

719
00:44:43,900 --> 00:44:46,300
That's one.
We can't sleep walk through now

720
00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:48,600
that can't become a Charleston.
Southern.

721
00:44:48,900 --> 00:44:50,800
No, that can't be coming to
Charleston.

722
00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:53,600
Southern you need to go ahead
and put what you got out there

723
00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:57,500
and close the door early and
finish the game, alright?

724
00:44:57,500 --> 00:45:00,000
Want to talk this real quick
with the ladies hoopsters.

725
00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:07,700
I mean, obviously they dominated
BC, you know, start to finish,

726
00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:11,800
they dominate UNC Asheville and
when by 38, but it was the game

727
00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:15,400
preceding those two and the Wind
over at Tennessee.

728
00:45:15,900 --> 00:45:17,900
And I know Tennessee.
This year is not what they were.

729
00:45:17,900 --> 00:45:21,100
Last year, they were top 10 team
last year like, there's seven

730
00:45:21,100 --> 00:45:22,600
and four out of the gate this
year.

731
00:45:23,300 --> 00:45:28,000
But either way that 74 is
deceptive.

732
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:31,100
I mean, let it look who they
lost to and and what the score

733
00:45:31,100 --> 00:45:34,700
was and how they lost its true.
It's not, I mean, I know I know

734
00:45:34,700 --> 00:45:39,400
they'd fallen in terms of being,
you know, a ranked team but

735
00:45:39,400 --> 00:45:42,500
they're much better than their
record indicates right now.

736
00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:47,200
So You can just you can just
look at the the point I'd come

737
00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:52,300
and say alright yeah well that's
you skirted by an unranked.

738
00:45:52,300 --> 00:45:55,900
Yes this is a little different,
a little different than that.

739
00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:57,500
It's me.
That's why I'm saying, they're

740
00:45:57,500 --> 00:46:01,800
not top team, they're a top 25
Team without a doubt, but

741
00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:04,300
they're not a top-10.
What they were I think last year

742
00:46:04,900 --> 00:46:09,700
but just to get the win on the
road there that was a absolute

743
00:46:09,700 --> 00:46:13,000
nail-biter at the end.
We could have been an easy win.

744
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:14,600
But you know, No, that is what
it is.

745
00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:19,200
The big one though, to me the
game this Sunday.

746
00:46:20,300 --> 00:46:26,400
The game this Sunday determines
if we're just a good team you

747
00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:30,500
know sweet 16 Elite eight or if
this team has a final four

748
00:46:30,500 --> 00:46:35,900
running because Notre, Dame's
women team is essentially one of

749
00:46:35,908 --> 00:46:37,500
the elite women's teams in the
country.

750
00:46:37,500 --> 00:46:40,100
I think they have one loss to
share their number six or number

751
00:46:40,100 --> 00:46:44,000
five in the country.
I mean, there's your test, you

752
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:47,700
go out there and win that game.
That is a signature.

753
00:46:47,700 --> 00:46:49,300
Win for Kevin Brooks.
It's a signature win for the

754
00:46:49,300 --> 00:46:51,500
program.
But that also puts people on

755
00:46:51,500 --> 00:46:55,100
notice that this team can win a
National Championship this year.

756
00:46:56,100 --> 00:47:00,000
Yeah, I mean we're on, they're
on the cusp, it's closed.

757
00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:04,300
They're, you know, they may not
be a favor to do it but they're

758
00:47:04,300 --> 00:47:06,700
certainly putting themselves in
the Dark Horse category,

759
00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:09,900
abso-freaking-lutely.
All right.

760
00:47:09,900 --> 00:47:13,500
Brian.
Um, one more thing before we hit

761
00:47:13,500 --> 00:47:17,100
the break here and you know, if
everybody in the college

762
00:47:17,100 --> 00:47:21,900
football World had been paying
attention You know, Mike Leach

763
00:47:21,900 --> 00:47:30,900
passed away today. and, You
know, if you ever watched

764
00:47:30,900 --> 00:47:34,600
interviews with the guy, I mean,
it wasn't going to be about

765
00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:37,000
football off time.
It was gonna be about some

766
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:38,600
random things and make you
chuckle.

767
00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:41,800
Make you laugh.
You know, they were showing

768
00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:45,300
different interviews.
I forgot 60 Minutes interview

769
00:47:45,300 --> 00:47:47,800
him like 12 years ago.
Yep.

770
00:47:48,500 --> 00:47:51,200
You always kind of wonder how
that Scott Pelley.

771
00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:54,000
Felt when he'll go interview
Mike Leach as a football coach,

772
00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:57,200
this will be easy.
What?

773
00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:02,600
But, you know, I don't think
there's a topic that you could

774
00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:06,900
bring up that he couldn't say
something about that was either

775
00:48:07,500 --> 00:48:12,800
thought provoking or mine
fucking what just hilarious or

776
00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:15,500
just a larious.
The whole thing about the, the

777
00:48:15,500 --> 00:48:18,800
marriage thing, if you've ever
seen, you seen the marriage when

778
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:21,200
he had up at y Zu, right?
Yeah.

779
00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:24,300
When we talked about, oh my God,
that's just, it's just

780
00:48:24,300 --> 00:48:25,400
hilarious.
Hilarious.

781
00:48:25,500 --> 00:48:29,500
Arius and obviously you know as
much as he was a personality he

782
00:48:29,500 --> 00:48:32,400
was himself.
The guy was also a supreme

783
00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:35,000
intellect, the guy got his JD
from Pepperdine.

784
00:48:35,300 --> 00:48:39,800
The guy was smart and if we
talked about it we've talked

785
00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:44,100
about we're in a day and age
where everything is as common as

786
00:48:44,100 --> 00:48:48,700
which bone was to our high
school Youth and he was the guy

787
00:48:48,700 --> 00:48:51,500
that did it.
How money was the guy who

788
00:48:51,500 --> 00:48:55,200
brought it to the mainstream,
Mike Leach, made it work in the

789
00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:56,000
Moon.
Great.

790
00:48:56,300 --> 00:49:00,300
What he did at Texas Tech and
what he did everywhere because

791
00:49:00,300 --> 00:49:03,600
everywhere he went the program's
got better with that offensive

792
00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:05,600
system then.
Yeah.

793
00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:10,700
And took the non-traditional
roads some would say because he

794
00:49:10,700 --> 00:49:13,100
had to and some would say
because he wanted to and I'd

795
00:49:13,100 --> 00:49:14,700
probably both are a little bit
true.

796
00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:20,000
Absolutely.
And you know he was a character

797
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:24,900
and you know in we were talking
with our our buddy Rob e Compton

798
00:49:24,900 --> 00:49:28,200
today.
Our coach buddy and Robbie

799
00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:31,600
actually got the opportunity
long time ago when he was

800
00:49:31,600 --> 00:49:34,900
coaching at our high school
called up.

801
00:49:34,900 --> 00:49:38,700
They were trying to implement
some Airaid Concepts to what

802
00:49:38,700 --> 00:49:42,100
they did called up.
Texas Tech said, hey we want to

803
00:49:42,100 --> 00:49:47,900
come see you guys and him and
David techie who's got?

804
00:49:47,900 --> 00:49:49,800
He's ahead, he's brought that
tribe.

805
00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:53,000
His head coach building
Wilkesboro, they got a chance to

806
00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:55,400
go out there for a week and
spend time.

807
00:49:55,500 --> 00:49:59,600
Lucina staff at Texas Tech to
understand those Concepts and

808
00:49:59,700 --> 00:50:02,800
this was probably one of the
coolest things that happened.

809
00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:06,400
Ron, you know, you saw Robbie
talk to us because he was like,

810
00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:08,400
what story.
There was more than one, Mike

811
00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:12,100
Lee Story Robbie had.
So he got to meet them.

812
00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:13,900
And this was Lincoln, Riley was
on staff.

813
00:50:13,900 --> 00:50:16,700
Ruffin McNeil was on staff.
So he got to the front Robbie.

814
00:50:16,700 --> 00:50:18,300
And Dave, got to know those
guys.

815
00:50:18,300 --> 00:50:19,600
And then they coach these see
you right?

816
00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:22,100
In their backyard when they were
down in Greenville, North

817
00:50:22,100 --> 00:50:25,300
Carolina coaching.
And, but when he told us about

818
00:50:25,300 --> 00:50:28,300
what, Was really cool.
Is they were an AFC, a clinic.

819
00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:32,500
And for those who don't know,
afca is the American football

820
00:50:32,500 --> 00:50:35,700
coaches association.
They have big clinics every

821
00:50:35,700 --> 00:50:37,900
year.
They could send February says

822
00:50:37,900 --> 00:50:41,100
right after the season wraps, so
if you're a lot of High School

823
00:50:41,100 --> 00:50:43,900
coaches, get together these a
lot of them take the time to go

824
00:50:43,900 --> 00:50:46,600
because you're in seminars,
everything.

825
00:50:46,600 --> 00:50:48,700
I don't know if it was always in
Orlando, with this one was in

826
00:50:48,700 --> 00:50:49,800
Orlando.
Correct?

827
00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:53,000
I think this one was in Orlando.
Yeah, it was in Orlando.

828
00:50:53,000 --> 00:50:54,900
I'm looking at the message
Robbie sent us here.

829
00:50:55,500 --> 00:51:01,200
And so they go there and they
run across coach Leach and he

830
00:51:01,200 --> 00:51:05,000
called him over.
So first of all, these are two

831
00:51:05,700 --> 00:51:09,400
guys from a small, High School
in southern rural Virginia.

832
00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:11,400
One of the most well-known is
Collegiate football.

833
00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:16,400
Coaches waves, you over at this
conference in from there he took

834
00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:18,300
them.
This is like a, who's who's

835
00:51:18,300 --> 00:51:20,200
list?
He wouldn't introduce them to

836
00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:23,700
Gary Patterson.
Vinnie introduced him to Bob

837
00:51:23,700 --> 00:51:26,200
Stoops at Oklahoma.
Then he introduced him to Matt

838
00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:29,700
Brown, they got to hang out with
Ruffin and Lincoln a little bit

839
00:51:29,700 --> 00:51:31,300
who were on the staff at that
time.

840
00:51:31,500 --> 00:51:33,700
Even more at the AFC, a
conference.

841
00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:37,600
But here is the funny part and
this is where it's like, Mike

842
00:51:37,600 --> 00:51:43,100
Leach.
So as he's introducing, our

843
00:51:43,100 --> 00:51:45,200
buddy, Robbie and go to a
techie.

844
00:51:45,900 --> 00:51:49,200
He told all the coaches, these
guys are from South Boston.

845
00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:54,100
The one in Virginia, not the one
up north, where they whack

846
00:51:54,100 --> 00:51:57,900
people, and I think that's a
perfect summation of whom my

847
00:51:57,900 --> 00:52:03,200
cleavage.
Number one, the fact that he

848
00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:08,600
recall that information from
previous interactions with

849
00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:12,200
again, you know, to High School
coaches that he came across, you

850
00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:18,800
know, one time before that,
that's impressive. the

851
00:52:20,300 --> 00:52:25,200
interjection of the humor there
is, is impressive, you know,

852
00:52:25,207 --> 00:52:30,900
this, this is probably right
around the time when You know.

853
00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:36,000
Some movies like Mystic River.
Probably just came out.

854
00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:39,100
Arted little card in probably
just came out.

855
00:52:39,100 --> 00:52:44,500
Yes, so But yeah, it's one of
those things where you get the

856
00:52:44,500 --> 00:52:46,900
story like that and its people
ever.

857
00:52:46,900 --> 00:52:50,700
If people everywhere to question
and say I'm not look that Mike

858
00:52:50,700 --> 00:52:53,800
Leach has stuff that doesn't
seem real like nope, we have

859
00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:57,400
someone that met him.
They could confirm what you saw

860
00:52:57,400 --> 00:53:01,600
was what you got.
Rest in Peach coach leech, you

861
00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:07,600
will be missed for your humor
for, you know, just your

862
00:53:07,600 --> 00:53:10,600
creativity man.
And it's a great coach going way

863
00:53:10,600 --> 00:53:12,100
too soon, right?
Yep.

864
00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:15,000
You change the game and you did
it with the smile on your face

865
00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:16,500
and he put a smile on everybody
else's.

866
00:53:16,500 --> 00:53:18,800
So rest in peace.
Yes sir.

867
00:53:18,900 --> 00:53:21,500

Dash report.
Now back to the episode.

877
00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:50,900
All right Brian so we definitely
have some other things we want

878
00:53:50,900 --> 00:53:54,900
to talk about just college
football related and obviously

879
00:53:54,900 --> 00:54:01,700
since we last Out a boatload.
A boatload of coaching hires

880
00:54:01,700 --> 00:54:05,000
have taken place in.
We're going to focus, just on a

881
00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:10,700
handful, but I want to mention
the other ones that have gotten

882
00:54:10,700 --> 00:54:14,000
hired.
I think one, that definitely

883
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:16,000
surprised me.
I don't know if it's a prized.

884
00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:18,200
You was Troy Taylor out of
Sacramento State.

885
00:54:18,200 --> 00:54:21,200
The FCS programs gets to call to
go over to Stanford.

886
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:27,500
Did not see that coming and all
At all, at all.

887
00:54:27,500 --> 00:54:33,000
But did you know that Roy Taylor
on your list for Santa boy?

888
00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:35,700
Taylor was out on my short list
for anywhere, let alone.

889
00:54:35,700 --> 00:54:39,600
Stanford, all right, so he goes
there and that's no disrespect

890
00:54:39,600 --> 00:54:42,900
to him.
I mean, I think it still They

891
00:54:42,900 --> 00:54:45,500
wonder if it's a it's
interesting, I don't think it's

892
00:54:45,500 --> 00:54:47,700
a bad hire, it's an interesting
higher.

893
00:54:47,700 --> 00:54:52,000
Well, they did this previously
they did this previously, is

894
00:54:52,500 --> 00:54:55,000
they did this with harbach
because Harbaugh was at San

895
00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:59,100
Diego, which was an FCS program
in the state of California.

896
00:54:59,100 --> 00:55:02,600
The difference is everyone who
the hell Jim Harbaugh was,

897
00:55:02,900 --> 00:55:05,900
nobody knows.
He'll Troy Taylor is so it's

898
00:55:05,900 --> 00:55:08,100
like we're going the same route,
but this time we have no

899
00:55:08,100 --> 00:55:10,500
notoriety.
It's just a good football coach.

900
00:55:10,600 --> 00:55:14,100
And from, you know, the looks of
State, he is a good football

901
00:55:14,100 --> 00:55:18,900
coach so there's that one now, a
couple of the other ones.

902
00:55:18,900 --> 00:55:21,600
Let's roll these out.
USF.

903
00:55:21,600 --> 00:55:25,200
Takes Alice goldish.
The Tennessee EOC will be very

904
00:55:25,200 --> 00:55:29,100
interesting to see if that
affects the Tennessee offense.

905
00:55:29,100 --> 00:55:31,100
Any sense heiple does have his
hands.

906
00:55:31,100 --> 00:55:34,300
So involved, I also find it.
Interesting.

907
00:55:34,300 --> 00:55:38,500
UCF goes down, the route of
coordinator with really good

908
00:55:38,500 --> 00:55:41,400
offense again the Jeff Scott
hire from Clemson.

909
00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:45,000
Absolutely will.
It's trash and I don't think

910
00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:47,000
he's a trash coach.
I just don't think some guys are

911
00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:54,600
cut out to be head coaches.
Was FAU shocking to you with Tom

912
00:55:54,600 --> 00:55:56,800
Herman.
Or is it just one of those he's

913
00:55:56,800 --> 00:56:01,200
reintroducing himself?
I thought it was.

914
00:56:01,900 --> 00:56:06,600
I thought he could have done
better but I think it's a it's a

915
00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:09,400
good.
If he wants to get back into

916
00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:15,300
more of a blue blood program
quicker.

917
00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:19,300
This is probably the better
route than taking a risk on a

918
00:56:19,900 --> 00:56:22,500
Level P5.
And if you fail, you pretty

919
00:56:22,500 --> 00:56:28,500
much, said, yourself back a good
ways, coordinator forever, when

920
00:56:28,500 --> 00:56:30,900
that happens coordinator for
everyone that happens.

921
00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:34,900
Um, Kevin Wilson leaves will be
leaving Ohio State to head down

922
00:56:34,900 --> 00:56:36,900
to Tulsa.
He has been in an offensive

923
00:56:36,900 --> 00:56:41,400
coordinator there for a while.
He also had been a head coach at

924
00:56:41,400 --> 00:56:43,800
Indiana.
Sounds like, second swipe at

925
00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:49,500
second swipe at, you know, a
head coaching job.

926
00:56:49,800 --> 00:56:54,500
Obviously, I was watching Tulsa
closely they didn't they didn't

927
00:56:54,500 --> 00:56:57,200
do it, I think they do.
But, you know, it is what it is.

928
00:56:59,500 --> 00:57:02,200
I mean I'm just being real.
How about this, how about this

929
00:57:02,200 --> 00:57:04,600
one for you?
How about this one for you UAB

930
00:57:04,600 --> 00:57:08,100
hires Trent Dilfer has been
coaching High School.

931
00:57:09,900 --> 00:57:12,600
Is you a be trying to find the
white Beyond?

932
00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:20,500
Wait now because if they were
trying to do that they would try

933
00:57:20,500 --> 00:57:25,300
to hire like Peyton or somebody
not you know drought Trent

934
00:57:25,300 --> 00:57:30,800
Dilfer not the guy that
literally what is it?

935
00:57:31,100 --> 00:57:33,600
Trent Dilfer is a game manager
though.

936
00:57:34,100 --> 00:57:36,900
He wasn't gay manager.
I mean he's always had some good

937
00:57:36,900 --> 00:57:41,100
insights on the board's.
Next few here want to talk about

938
00:57:41,100 --> 00:57:43,000
just hit before we hit kind of
the ones that are really

939
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:48,100
affecting that or I see more
affecting the Hokies Lance

940
00:57:48,100 --> 00:57:51,000
Taylor, the running back coach
for Notre Dame takes Western

941
00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:56,000
Michigan.
You know, he's the Run game

942
00:57:56,000 --> 00:57:58,700
coordinator there, so not even
an OC yet.

943
00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:02,600
I mean I guess some guys it's
just and I don't know where

944
00:58:02,600 --> 00:58:05,100
lands Taylor from, so maybe he's
from that area and it's just one

945
00:58:05,100 --> 00:58:07,700
of those.
I'm going to take the chance.

946
00:58:08,900 --> 00:58:10,800
They'll know, it's a head
coaching job.

947
00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:15,900
Here's the name and I'm very
shocked by this Barry.

948
00:58:15,900 --> 00:58:17,300
Odom.
Went to UNLV.

949
00:58:17,500 --> 00:58:20,500
He is recently in Arkansas.
I know they had a six and six

950
00:58:20,500 --> 00:58:25,900
season but kind of shocking to
see him go that direction to a

951
00:58:25,900 --> 00:58:31,100
program like UNLV which is you
know, the old guy was there had

952
00:58:31,100 --> 00:58:33,500
a couple okay Seasons but it's
not like one of those.

953
00:58:33,800 --> 00:58:38,500
It's not like a San Diego State
or like a program like that out.

954
00:58:38,600 --> 00:58:40,800
The west where you feel like,
you know, they can they can get

955
00:58:40,800 --> 00:58:45,200
up pretty quick and be good.
And that's not to say UNLV can't

956
00:58:45,200 --> 00:58:48,300
and hasn't it's just it's not as
ready.

957
00:58:48,300 --> 00:58:54,300
Made of a situation for a guy,
like Barry Odom.

958
00:58:56,400 --> 00:58:59,400
You know, we'll see if that ends
up working out.

959
00:59:01,200 --> 00:59:03,700
It's definitely a different path
and he took last time.

960
00:59:03,700 --> 00:59:07,400
So, you know, you kind of see,
see how that works out for him.

961
00:59:08,100 --> 00:59:09,900
True true.
All right.

962
00:59:10,600 --> 00:59:16,300
And with that, Let's go to the
ones that I think are could one

963
00:59:16,300 --> 00:59:19,300
that could have been impactful
and the others that will be

964
00:59:19,300 --> 00:59:22,100
impactful.
The one that could have been

965
00:59:22,100 --> 00:59:31,000
impactful if he had taken.
Any potentially any job that was

966
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:35,900
open the Louisville.
The Georgia Tech's etc.

967
00:59:35,900 --> 00:59:40,100
Etc.
East Coast ACC or adjacent

968
00:59:40,100 --> 00:59:43,500
School Deion Sanders who goes to
Colorado.

969
00:59:45,600 --> 00:59:47,900
And anybody can talk about all
the stuff he said.

970
00:59:48,900 --> 00:59:52,300
That's that is what it is.
I think a lot of those things

971
00:59:52,300 --> 00:59:54,600
take place like that when
coaches get places.

972
00:59:54,600 --> 00:59:59,800
I just think he's got
publicizing it but him and

973
00:59:59,800 --> 01:00:06,800
Colorado, I mean, you discussed
this brine And it's if he goes

974
01:00:06,800 --> 01:00:09,800
and wins in Colorado, if he just
wins four games next year and he

975
01:00:09,800 --> 01:00:13,200
gets up to eight games in year 2
year, 3, what's going to happen?

976
01:00:14,500 --> 01:00:17,200
He's going to get Blueblood
offers quickly.

977
01:00:17,500 --> 01:00:21,200
Yeah, this is essentially I
think a three-year plan for him

978
01:00:21,500 --> 01:00:25,800
and Colorado.
I think he just has to make a

979
01:00:25,800 --> 01:00:31,100
bowl year, two and three.
If he gets if he gets that that

980
01:00:31,100 --> 01:00:34,600
team as awful as it was this
past season to a bowl in year-2

981
01:00:34,600 --> 01:00:38,100
and year-3 especially if you're
in a seven or eight win team in

982
01:00:38,100 --> 01:00:40,400
year three.
Yeah I mean they're going to

983
01:00:40,400 --> 01:00:43,600
come calling.
Yeah and to me I think this is

984
01:00:43,600 --> 01:00:47,300
why he took that That job too.
I don't think Dianna needs

985
01:00:47,300 --> 01:00:48,500
money.
I think Dion between

986
01:00:48,500 --> 01:00:51,700
endorsements and playing two
sports for basically close to

987
01:00:51,700 --> 01:00:54,600
ten years as the pay scales were
starting to go up in those

988
01:00:54,600 --> 01:00:56,200
Sports.
I don't think he needs the

989
01:00:56,200 --> 01:00:59,500
money, but I think what he saw
as if I've also been an analyst

990
01:00:59,500 --> 01:01:02,300
make it, which I mean, the money
in that game is risen

991
01:01:02,300 --> 01:01:03,800
significantly.
So, you know, he's been making

992
01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:06,500
good money there to between NFL
Network in Barstool.

993
01:01:06,500 --> 01:01:09,000
I mean, you know, he's making
good money doing that stuff

994
01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:10,800
before you jumped over to
Jackson State.

995
01:01:11,000 --> 01:01:13,900
But I think it's this is a
program where he looks and says

996
01:01:13,900 --> 01:01:15,600
there.
Nothing expected.

997
01:01:16,300 --> 01:01:19,400
And by that he could say, even
if I went three or four games

998
01:01:19,400 --> 01:01:21,700
next chamber, like all your
failure, I'm turning this

999
01:01:21,700 --> 01:01:25,900
program around, I'm building it,
but he knows if he can make it a

1000
01:01:25,908 --> 01:01:28,100
quick turn around.
He's going to get a Blueblood

1001
01:01:28,100 --> 01:01:30,300
offer.
Who knows what that might be?

1002
01:01:30,600 --> 01:01:34,600
I think just for our sake, he
did not go to a more mid-level

1003
01:01:34,600 --> 01:01:40,500
ACC school like we were about to
discuss because also thankfully

1004
01:01:40,500 --> 01:01:46,600
Mike Norvell had a good season.
Well, but but let's let's,

1005
01:01:46,600 --> 01:01:48,400
let's, let's talk about that
real quick.

1006
01:01:48,600 --> 01:01:55,100
If Florida State goes and hires
him, okay, if Florida State goes

1007
01:01:55,100 --> 01:01:58,700
at hiring, I mean, it's more of
a trickle down for us than it is

1008
01:01:58,700 --> 01:02:02,400
an immediate sure because if he
steps in somewhere, like

1009
01:02:02,400 --> 01:02:07,300
Louisville or Georgia Tech, I
mean that's immediately he's

1010
01:02:07,300 --> 01:02:12,100
going to be feeding off the Blue
Bloods while stealing from

1011
01:02:12,400 --> 01:02:14,300
similar level programs like
Tech.

1012
01:02:14,800 --> 01:02:16,900
Yeah.
And that's where like, that's

1013
01:02:16,900 --> 01:02:18,400
the one that worries you
Colorado.

1014
01:02:18,400 --> 01:02:23,000
You feel like it's going to be
more of a California tears.

1015
01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:26,200
And just saying, FSU eats at a
higher level of the food chain

1016
01:02:26,200 --> 01:02:28,300
than we're, we're doing and they
do.

1017
01:02:28,500 --> 01:02:32,600
They do?
They do they do I won't even if

1018
01:02:32,600 --> 01:02:35,100
anybody wants argue about that,
let's argue about it.

1019
01:02:35,400 --> 01:02:41,300
That's just the way I feel now.
The next one I want to talk

1020
01:02:41,300 --> 01:02:45,500
about and I think you're pretty
excited when this guy got hired

1021
01:02:45,500 --> 01:02:47,900
because you've watched his
offense a few times and, you

1022
01:02:47,900 --> 01:02:50,300
know, we can prepare for and
that's Liberty hiring Jamie

1023
01:02:50,300 --> 01:02:54,800
Chadwell out of coastal.
Chadwell who'd been getting a

1024
01:02:54,800 --> 01:02:57,300
lot of Buzz.
Basically gets a five times pay

1025
01:02:57,300 --> 01:02:59,000
bump.
Yep.

1026
01:02:59,100 --> 01:03:03,700
To go to Liberty Hill be
eventually in Conference USA.

1027
01:03:05,300 --> 01:03:09,000
So its it's like a, it's a
lateral move, it's a lateral.

1028
01:03:09,000 --> 01:03:12,500
Move, the Only thing you'll say,
you getting paid more and he's

1029
01:03:12,500 --> 01:03:15,700
in a less competitive conference
at the same level.

1030
01:03:15,800 --> 01:03:20,000
So same Prestige, less
competitive and expectation.

1031
01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:24,900
Why's he doesn't have to win 10
games every year anymore.

1032
01:03:25,700 --> 01:03:29,200
Sure, you can win seven or eight
and they'll probably still be

1033
01:03:29,200 --> 01:03:33,200
happy, very true.
But as far as the Hokey goes to

1034
01:03:33,600 --> 01:03:36,900
hook, he's going to be playing
this team for the foreseeable

1035
01:03:36,900 --> 01:03:39,300
future.
Unfortunately both in Blacksburg

1036
01:03:39,900 --> 01:03:44,700
In Lynchburg you mentioned to me
about looking at it like you

1037
01:03:44,700 --> 01:03:46,500
were like the day Hugh, freeze
went to Auburn.

1038
01:03:46,500 --> 01:03:50,100
It was like, thank God.
No more preparing for that shit.

1039
01:03:50,400 --> 01:03:53,100
Yeah, it's like you look.
Chadwell's offenses, like we can

1040
01:03:53,100 --> 01:03:57,100
control this How do you oh, do
you can control it?

1041
01:03:57,500 --> 01:04:00,200
I think we, I think we can
control that if if only you can

1042
01:04:00,200 --> 01:04:05,000
control it and look at the
strategy that ogod you put out

1043
01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:09,300
there, get that offense and
check was able to do more

1044
01:04:09,900 --> 01:04:12,500
offensively than I think a lot
of people expected against them.

1045
01:04:12,500 --> 01:04:19,200
I think the the the blueprint is
kind of out there on on what

1046
01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:22,800
Coastal is doing now.
True me what Chadwell was doing

1047
01:04:22,800 --> 01:04:26,000
at kostal, it's going to
Interested to see if.

1048
01:04:27,600 --> 01:04:31,800
If Grace and follows him, that's
fine because Grace is because

1049
01:04:31,800 --> 01:04:34,800
got one year left, right?
Yeah, that's fine.

1050
01:04:35,100 --> 01:04:38,900
I think the bigger thing about
this and I think for us, it's

1051
01:04:38,900 --> 01:04:42,100
more of a, not a sigh of relief
and it's Assad relief breathe.

1052
01:04:42,300 --> 01:04:47,300
But what he was doing was he was
essentially taking division, one

1053
01:04:47,300 --> 01:04:50,200
guys and because he was Hugh
freeze.

1054
01:04:50,200 --> 01:04:52,900
He could recruit them to Liberty
without an issue, right?

1055
01:04:53,200 --> 01:04:54,600
Yeah, not an issue.
Come here.

1056
01:04:54,600 --> 01:04:55,900
Play for me.
I can develop you.

1057
01:04:55,900 --> 01:04:58,900
I can get you moved on.
On to bigger and better things.

1058
01:04:59,100 --> 01:05:00,800
I don't think Chad Wells.
Got that cloud.

1059
01:05:01,500 --> 01:05:05,200
I think Chad Wells going to have
them recruiting both.

1060
01:05:06,400 --> 01:05:09,900
For high school and portal where
they should be.

1061
01:05:10,100 --> 01:05:13,300
We're Hugh freeze has been well
above their pay grade for the

1062
01:05:13,300 --> 01:05:16,600
last few seasons.
Hugh freeze made his hay in the

1063
01:05:16,600 --> 01:05:20,800
portal Chadwell is going to be
all about, just like he was at

1064
01:05:20,800 --> 01:05:24,200
Coastal.
Taking guys that are to and low

1065
01:05:24,200 --> 01:05:29,400
three-star guys, and getting
more out of them because they

1066
01:05:29,400 --> 01:05:31,200
can operate well within this
system.

1067
01:05:32,500 --> 01:05:35,600
Absolutely, by the way, there's
one other thing here.

1068
01:05:35,600 --> 01:05:40,200
I didn't know.
About this and it's not Netflix

1069
01:05:40,200 --> 01:05:42,900
Robbie into Luke.
It's a Hulu series that it's

1070
01:05:42,900 --> 01:05:48,000
talking about Liberty.
They are so Jamie Chadwell in

1071
01:05:48,008 --> 01:05:51,600
the Hulu series.
All right, let's go there Pool,

1072
01:05:51,600 --> 01:05:54,300
Boys.
Involved potentially, he wasn't

1073
01:05:54,300 --> 01:05:58,400
Myrtle Beach man.
So I mean the last two I want to

1074
01:05:58,400 --> 01:06:01,100
do so that semen.
The last two I want to hit

1075
01:06:01,100 --> 01:06:05,500
tonight.
Sign of interchangeable is

1076
01:06:05,600 --> 01:06:10,100
Scott's Satterfield leaves
Louisville to go to Cincinnati.

1077
01:06:10,700 --> 01:06:13,700
Thus opening the door and
allowing Jeff Brahman.

1078
01:06:14,100 --> 01:06:15,800
Let's start with Satterfield
first.

1079
01:06:15,900 --> 01:06:18,000
I think Satterfield just felt
the Heat.

1080
01:06:19,300 --> 01:06:21,500
I think Cincinnati wants Luke
fickle left.

1081
01:06:21,500 --> 01:06:24,600
They knew they needed to get a
proven P5.

1082
01:06:24,600 --> 01:06:27,600
Head coach as they make this
transition over to the Big 12

1083
01:06:28,400 --> 01:06:31,400
and I think for him it's like
well now my ass is not on the

1084
01:06:31,400 --> 01:06:34,700
hot seat anymore.
I'm going to go and that's all

1085
01:06:34,700 --> 01:06:40,300
it was if he was off the hot
seat he was all thoughts eat

1086
01:06:40,300 --> 01:06:43,200
enough where he would get this
type of offer and he struck

1087
01:06:43,200 --> 01:06:48,600
while the iron's hot.
And I mean, he's probably safe

1088
01:06:48,600 --> 01:06:50,200
room of us wouldn't have done
that.

1089
01:06:51,100 --> 01:06:53,400
A lot of people wouldn't, but he
know, he's now safe to four to

1090
01:06:53,400 --> 01:06:56,600
five years for them.
They know that he's a quality

1091
01:06:56,600 --> 01:06:58,700
coach.
Is he gonna blow the doors off

1092
01:06:58,700 --> 01:07:00,100
of Everybody?
Probably not.

1093
01:07:00,100 --> 01:07:02,600
But is he gonna be able to
settle them into the Big 12?

1094
01:07:02,600 --> 01:07:06,000
Yeah, he's got a solid floor.
Yeah.

1095
01:07:06,000 --> 01:07:08,200
They they they know what that
transition.

1096
01:07:08,200 --> 01:07:09,700
He's talking they're not going
to enter there and he's going to

1097
01:07:09,707 --> 01:07:13,900
be god-awful, he will keep them
at least above that kind of

1098
01:07:13,900 --> 01:07:17,500
forward to five when fret.
Threshold it might miss a bowl

1099
01:07:17,500 --> 01:07:21,000
but it's not going to be by more
than one game or so exactly.

1100
01:07:21,500 --> 01:07:25,700
But when that happened,
unfortunately and I do not like

1101
01:07:25,700 --> 01:07:29,400
this, I do not like this at all.
He is not a great recruiter, but

1102
01:07:29,400 --> 01:07:32,500
the guy can Coach Jeff brohm to
Louisville.

1103
01:07:33,200 --> 01:07:38,600
Should have everybody's ears
perked because we saw him, you

1104
01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:41,900
know, we saw him knock off of
how State we saw him hanging

1105
01:07:41,900 --> 01:07:45,200
with some of the big boys when
he was at Purdue including the

1106
01:07:45,500 --> 01:07:48,900
In championship game where they
took Michigan to the third

1107
01:07:48,900 --> 01:07:52,000
quarter with the game, that guy
knows what he's doing.

1108
01:07:52,300 --> 01:07:56,300
He knows how to coach,
quarterbacks, it's not, like I'm

1109
01:07:56,300 --> 01:08:01,000
so scared of him.
But, you know, now the next time

1110
01:08:01,000 --> 01:08:04,700
we play Louisville, it's going
to be a damn fight because of

1111
01:08:04,700 --> 01:08:08,500
how good of a coach is.
My question is, you know, you

1112
01:08:08,500 --> 01:08:12,000
tell me what you think.
I'm not sure why.

1113
01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:17,000
Jeff brohm took this move.
Its alma mater, man.

1114
01:08:18,800 --> 01:08:19,500
It's all.
That's all.

1115
01:08:19,600 --> 01:08:27,200
That's the only thing I can feel
because I said and best there,

1116
01:08:27,200 --> 01:08:31,500
it's a parallel boov.
And if you look at the other

1117
01:08:31,500 --> 01:08:37,500
intangible factors like
Meteorites, and things like

1118
01:08:37,500 --> 01:08:39,200
that.
It's a step down.

1119
01:08:39,300 --> 01:08:42,399
It is and but it's, I think it's
going home.

1120
01:08:42,399 --> 01:08:47,700
I think he knows he goes there,
he's got more leeway.

1121
01:08:48,899 --> 01:08:51,399
And he probably has about the
same amount of leeway in Purdue,

1122
01:08:51,399 --> 01:08:54,300
but I think it's just one of
those things he played there,

1123
01:08:54,700 --> 01:08:58,100
probably a harder path to a
championship game to at

1124
01:08:58,100 --> 01:09:01,500
Louisville, so problem.
Well, I don't know.

1125
01:09:02,100 --> 01:09:03,899
I've been with without
divisions.

1126
01:09:05,700 --> 01:09:07,000
Willow.
No.

1127
01:09:07,300 --> 01:09:09,399
But the Big Ten is going in the
direction of having no

1128
01:09:09,399 --> 01:09:10,500
divisions.
Now.

1129
01:09:11,300 --> 01:09:14,700
Sure, but I mean it's still a
harder path.

1130
01:09:15,700 --> 01:09:17,399
I guess.
I just think it's one of those

1131
01:09:17,399 --> 01:09:19,100
home things.
I think it's one of those.

1132
01:09:19,100 --> 01:09:20,700
He wanted to probably go back
home.

1133
01:09:20,700 --> 01:09:24,100
I mean, Brom isn't a spring
chicken by any means.

1134
01:09:24,200 --> 01:09:28,300
I mean Bronze in his early 50s,
he's probably, he's been

1135
01:09:28,300 --> 01:09:31,100
coaching.
I mean, he played essentially

1136
01:09:31,100 --> 01:09:35,399
for seven years and he's been
coaching for almost 20 He's

1137
01:09:35,399 --> 01:09:39,500
basically been coaching since he
was in his 30s.

1138
01:09:40,500 --> 01:09:43,200
Maybe it's one of those if I win
here silently.

1139
01:09:43,200 --> 01:09:45,200
They're going to keep me around
10 years and I can retire.

1140
01:09:46,100 --> 01:09:50,000
I'm interested to see if Brian
Braun comes as his brother did

1141
01:09:50,000 --> 01:09:53,100
coaching with him and staff.
Everybody knows Ryan Braun.

1142
01:09:53,100 --> 01:09:56,600
That poor guy took the absolute
biggest worst beating I've ever

1143
01:09:56,600 --> 01:09:59,100
seen a quarterback.
Take when the hook is play them

1144
01:09:59,100 --> 01:10:01,400
in the Gator Bowl about 16 years
ago.

1145
01:10:01,600 --> 01:10:04,500
We just shit out of him.
Absolute shit.

1146
01:10:04,500 --> 01:10:07,700
Yeah.
Yeah, like watching that game,

1147
01:10:09,500 --> 01:10:12,500
it got to a point where it's
just like I mean I'm glad we're

1148
01:10:12,500 --> 01:10:21,000
beating their ass.
But there's your coaching

1149
01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:24,200
Carousel.
Purdue still open, obviously,

1150
01:10:24,200 --> 01:10:26,700
with the passing of my cleats.
You know, Mississippi state will

1151
01:10:26,700 --> 01:10:29,300
be open, will be interesting to
see what they do.

1152
01:10:29,700 --> 01:10:32,900
But that pretty much I think
that went a lot faster than

1153
01:10:32,900 --> 01:10:37,300
anyone expected.
It seems like has got locked in

1154
01:10:37,300 --> 01:10:39,700
and fuck.
The next thing you know, just

1155
01:10:39,700 --> 01:10:46,100
about everything filled up in
the in the game of headsets.

1156
01:10:48,100 --> 01:10:50,900
So let me go real quick and I
know we don't have them all up

1157
01:10:50,900 --> 01:10:55,600
here, but who is since we've
pretty much rounded it out, best

1158
01:10:55,600 --> 01:11:00,200
tire of the bunch.
I mean, best tire.

1159
01:11:03,900 --> 01:11:08,000
It's got to be Colorado.
I mean, I think trajectory wise

1160
01:11:08,000 --> 01:11:11,400
that's going to put them back in
in the discussion.

1161
01:11:11,400 --> 01:11:17,400
And within two years, I'd say
close s going to be Louisville

1162
01:11:17,400 --> 01:11:18,600
with Jeff brohm.
All right.

1163
01:11:18,600 --> 01:11:21,600
Well, I should have said, what
we talked about the original set

1164
01:11:21,600 --> 01:11:23,800
to because I'm still thank you
for Reese.

1165
01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:27,600
I think freeze to Auburn is
still the biggest, the best one

1166
01:11:28,200 --> 01:11:29,900
because he knows we can't out
there.

1167
01:11:30,400 --> 01:11:33,800
When we haven't talked about
that, we talked about Purdue Oh,

1168
01:11:33,800 --> 01:11:38,000
did they hire somebody today?
Ryan Walters Ryan.

1169
01:11:38,000 --> 01:11:40,900
Walters why does that name sound
familiar DC for Illinois?

1170
01:11:43,900 --> 01:11:45,700
But that thing sounds really
familiar.

1171
01:11:45,700 --> 01:11:50,300
All this is a new and this is
breaking Brian focusing.

1172
01:11:50,300 --> 01:11:56,700
Here, Ryan Walters a 36-year
old, where did he play of the in

1173
01:11:56,700 --> 01:12:01,000
the league or anything?
Well, you played it Colorado.

1174
01:12:01,900 --> 01:12:04,600
Um, I don't know how I feel on
this one.

1175
01:12:07,200 --> 01:12:11,200
I mean, I mean with us playing
Purdue to start that season.

1176
01:12:11,200 --> 01:12:15,700
I'm glad I've got it.
They do have a defense, so be,

1177
01:12:15,700 --> 01:12:18,200
we're going to get it.
I mean, he is good on defense, I

1178
01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:20,500
should say, I don't know if
we'll see, Purdue playing that

1179
01:12:20,500 --> 01:12:23,800
stat of Defense out the gate,
but I mean, he's definitely

1180
01:12:23,800 --> 01:12:26,000
somebody that can come in.
And with, with the pieces they

1181
01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:27,500
have.
I think their defense are going

1182
01:12:27,500 --> 01:12:32,100
to maybe causes some Problems.
But we'll see, we'll see.

1183
01:12:32,100 --> 01:12:36,300
But they just lost an offensive
Guru that kept them in games so

1184
01:12:36,400 --> 01:12:40,200
they will see how it goes there.
All right, Brian, let's hit this

1185
01:12:40,200 --> 01:12:42,300
real quick.
Few things on this.

1186
01:12:44,200 --> 01:12:49,900
Did you applaud the committee
about eight days ago when they

1187
01:12:49,900 --> 01:12:53,800
announced Georgia Ohio State in
the Peach Bowl?

1188
01:12:53,800 --> 01:12:55,700
Michigan, TCU in the Fiesta
Bowl?

1189
01:12:56,400 --> 01:13:01,000
Yeah, they got it, right.
If you're going to be, you're

1190
01:13:01,000 --> 01:13:02,700
going to pick for they got it
right?

1191
01:13:03,000 --> 01:13:04,400
Alright.
Can I ask you this?

1192
01:13:06,300 --> 01:13:10,100
If the Rose Bowl hadn't
committed to 2024, would they

1193
01:13:10,100 --> 01:13:17,300
have done something stupid?
Divorce tactful maybe, maybe

1194
01:13:17,600 --> 01:13:20,900
political flag.
Let's just irritates the shit

1195
01:13:20,900 --> 01:13:22,700
out of some.
Well I mean I think we said it

1196
01:13:22,700 --> 01:13:25,900
we said you know whether they
put Alabama in or out it was

1197
01:13:25,900 --> 01:13:29,900
going to cause a Ruckus and I
think would cause more of a

1198
01:13:29,907 --> 01:13:32,300
Ruckus if they put them in and
then leaving them out.

1199
01:13:32,500 --> 01:13:34,500
Absolutely.
Maybe.

1200
01:13:35,600 --> 01:13:38,200
You look at the resumes, it just
didn't make sense to put Alabama

1201
01:13:38,200 --> 01:13:41,200
in there.
Like I test be damned, you still

1202
01:13:41,200 --> 01:13:44,800
have to play the games yourself
to win the games, being a having

1203
01:13:44,800 --> 01:13:47,700
good losses, doesn't matter if
you didn't win anything.

1204
01:13:47,900 --> 01:13:54,300
Well, my best piece was watching
Sabin on on that Saturday night.

1205
01:13:54,300 --> 01:13:56,100
I didn't get to see it all.
That's all Clips.

1206
01:13:56,300 --> 01:13:59,500
We'd be favored in Vegas.
You're also favorite against LSU

1207
01:13:59,500 --> 01:14:04,900
and Tennessee and you didn't win
those games, so you still have

1208
01:14:04,900 --> 01:14:06,600
to win the game.
Are in front of you.

1209
01:14:07,100 --> 01:14:09,400
I mean, we don't we don't just
play this game on paper.

1210
01:14:10,300 --> 01:14:12,000
So you should play the game on
paper.

1211
01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:15,500
You'd be the national champion
every year or every other year

1212
01:14:16,200 --> 01:14:19,800
touche touche does the baby
George and maybe Ohio State

1213
01:14:19,800 --> 01:14:22,700
sneaking their year to year
because they might have a little

1214
01:14:22,700 --> 01:14:25,600
bit of better class or the
combination of classes might be

1215
01:14:25,600 --> 01:14:28,200
a hair better than Alabama's a
given year.

1216
01:14:28,500 --> 01:14:31,900
But most years give or take,
it's going to be Alabama right

1217
01:14:31,900 --> 01:14:37,500
there, right?
So That's why we play the games.

1218
01:14:37,700 --> 01:14:41,900
That is why we play the games.
If you, I said it in the Tweet,

1219
01:14:41,900 --> 01:14:46,100
if you want to be in and you
don't want to have to have this

1220
01:14:46,100 --> 01:14:50,500
conversation, Then win enough
games where you're not sitting

1221
01:14:50,500 --> 01:14:54,100
at home during your conference
Championship, especially with

1222
01:14:54,100 --> 01:14:57,600
two losses and they wouldn't
have been there either way this

1223
01:14:57,600 --> 01:15:01,000
year, regardless, if they were
divisions are not in the SEC

1224
01:15:01,000 --> 01:15:03,400
which I think the SEC is getting
rid of them soon too.

1225
01:15:03,800 --> 01:15:08,400
All right New Year's Eve.
I'm sure you're going to be

1226
01:15:08,500 --> 01:15:11,400
making a big spread.
Getting a good Bible.

1227
01:15:11,900 --> 01:15:18,200
Which game are you looking more
forward to You know what, I

1228
01:15:18,200 --> 01:15:23,700
think Michigan TCU is going to
be more interesting to me, okay?

1229
01:15:25,100 --> 01:15:30,800
Because I think, TCU can score,
Michigan.

1230
01:15:30,800 --> 01:15:36,700
You can stop.
We'll see what, where the, where

1231
01:15:36,700 --> 01:15:39,800
the rubber meets the road there?
I think the difference is going

1232
01:15:39,800 --> 01:15:44,100
to be Michigan's rushing attack.
I think it's just going to be

1233
01:15:44,100 --> 01:15:48,000
too much and that that offensive
line is a bunch of monsters.

1234
01:15:48,000 --> 01:15:50,600
Including you know they got the
Remington us all.

1235
01:15:50,600 --> 01:15:54,700
Oh, I got one Remington and
Nagurski, right?

1236
01:15:55,200 --> 01:15:56,700
I think so.
No, we won the Remington the

1237
01:15:56,700 --> 01:16:00,800
center.
I mean I'm more interested to

1238
01:16:00,800 --> 01:16:05,600
see this I'm more interested to
see if Ohio State can actually

1239
01:16:05,600 --> 01:16:09,400
hit their potential.
Because I don't think they've

1240
01:16:09,400 --> 01:16:12,400
hit their potential all year on
either side of the ball and now

1241
01:16:12,400 --> 01:16:14,200
they've been get.
They've been reprieved.

1242
01:16:14,200 --> 01:16:18,300
This is 2014 again.
They've been reprieved, they're

1243
01:16:18,300 --> 01:16:23,200
playing a southern team.
In their backyard that has a

1244
01:16:23,200 --> 01:16:27,200
very good defense but a game
manager at quarterback.

1245
01:16:28,900 --> 01:16:33,800
We all remember how that game
when 2014 when Alabama, lay left

1246
01:16:33,800 --> 01:16:38,100
crushed in the Sugar Bowl, so
we'll see.

1247
01:16:38,300 --> 01:16:41,800
I'm actually I'm just looking
forward to both of them and you

1248
01:16:41,800 --> 01:16:44,800
know, eating good food, having a
good drink.

1249
01:16:45,500 --> 01:16:49,100
All right, so we just kind of
mentioned this a few minutes ago

1250
01:16:49,100 --> 01:16:52,600
with the Rose Bowl who have
amended their contract and it's

1251
01:16:52,600 --> 01:17:00,200
finally happening 2024, we will
have 12 teams playoff and

1252
01:17:01,000 --> 01:17:05,300
looking at it too.
I think it's also going to be

1253
01:17:05,300 --> 01:17:09,100
just eyeballing where the
championship game is it is going

1254
01:17:09,100 --> 01:17:12,900
to be a return of importance to
New Year's Eve and New Year's

1255
01:17:12,900 --> 01:17:14,900
Day.
I think it's going to go back to

1256
01:17:14,900 --> 01:17:20,000
like, when we were kids we're in
there were games those days, it

1257
01:17:20,000 --> 01:17:22,800
was implicating National
Championship type stuff.

1258
01:17:25,400 --> 01:17:27,400
Yeah, I think that's the big
thing is that you're going to

1259
01:17:27,400 --> 01:17:31,900
see New Year's Eve New Year's
Day those games.

1260
01:17:31,900 --> 01:17:34,300
Not just matter.
Now again but they matter.

1261
01:17:34,300 --> 01:17:37,400
In terms of the big picture, the
big picture that's going to be

1262
01:17:37,400 --> 01:17:39,400
quarterfinal games.
Yep.

1263
01:17:39,600 --> 01:17:42,500
Honest-to-god believe that.
And it's a return to glory to me

1264
01:17:42,500 --> 01:17:45,600
for those days because I
remember as a kid you kind of

1265
01:17:45,600 --> 01:17:48,800
would there would always be that
New Year's Eve night game.

1266
01:17:49,400 --> 01:17:52,800
That was of some importance of
some importance.

1267
01:17:53,200 --> 01:17:55,900
Yep.
The New Year's Day you Had the

1268
01:17:55,900 --> 01:17:58,400
rose, the sugar, the fiesta all
over the place.

1269
01:17:58,800 --> 01:18:01,900
But the reason I say that and
people are like, why are you

1270
01:18:01,900 --> 01:18:03,700
saying this?
We haven't heard the schedule

1271
01:18:03,700 --> 01:18:07,800
yet, but one thing we know
already in the soon as they drop

1272
01:18:07,800 --> 01:18:11,100
this, I called Brian meet him,
talk about 30 minutes on the

1273
01:18:11,100 --> 01:18:13,100
championship game is on the
20th.

1274
01:18:13,800 --> 01:18:17,000
That is effectively two weeks
later.

1275
01:18:18,700 --> 01:18:21,500
Later than it has been being
roughly.

1276
01:18:23,300 --> 01:18:26,600
If that's the case, when are you
going to be the home dates?

1277
01:18:27,200 --> 01:18:29,800
The home dates would likely Fall
like on this weekend?

1278
01:18:30,100 --> 01:18:33,400
It would be the first weekend of
bowl season.

1279
01:18:34,200 --> 01:18:37,800
My every year, we'll talk about
in a few minutes here.

1280
01:18:38,000 --> 01:18:41,600
We're going to pick some of the
games real quick. 16th and 17th

1281
01:18:41,700 --> 01:18:46,700
are your first big bowl games.
My bet in two years that

1282
01:18:46,700 --> 01:18:49,600
weekend, which is the 20 and
21st that's going to be your

1283
01:18:49,600 --> 01:18:54,400
home playing games.
Because then okay, you're going

1284
01:18:54,400 --> 01:18:56,900
to give everybody, you're not
going to change Conference

1285
01:18:56,900 --> 01:18:59,700
Championship week, right?
But everybody's going to know

1286
01:18:59,700 --> 01:19:02,800
and roughly have two weeks to
prepare whether whether it's

1287
01:19:02,800 --> 01:19:06,900
fans buying tickets teams,
making travel Arrangements, etc,

1288
01:19:06,900 --> 01:19:10,400
etc.
Did you get the Army-Navy game?

1289
01:19:10,700 --> 01:19:13,300
Then it's this.
Right?

1290
01:19:13,300 --> 01:19:18,100
It's this perfect sequence and
then obviously, New Year's Day

1291
01:19:18,100 --> 01:19:24,100
quarterfinal games and then what
did I show you Brian about when

1292
01:19:24,100 --> 01:19:26,900
I think the semis would be and
you started looking Doug and

1293
01:19:26,900 --> 01:19:30,600
you're like crap that that
actually makes freaking sense.

1294
01:19:32,100 --> 01:19:34,700
Yeah, I mean, I think we're
looking at what we said.

1295
01:19:35,800 --> 01:19:39,300
Kind of that.
What was it like eight or nine

1296
01:19:39,300 --> 01:19:44,400
to 14 day window between kind of
each round depending on where

1297
01:19:44,400 --> 01:19:46,300
New Year's was falling?
Yeah.

1298
01:19:48,000 --> 01:19:52,900
But when we looked at it, the
last weekend of the NFL season,

1299
01:19:52,900 --> 01:19:55,600
in which everybody knows last
week in the nfc's and Brian are

1300
01:19:55,600 --> 01:19:56,900
there.
Thursday night games.

1301
01:19:57,100 --> 01:20:00,500
No.
Are there Saturday night games?

1302
01:20:00,600 --> 01:20:06,300
No other Monday night games?
No, it's one day, everything on

1303
01:20:06,300 --> 01:20:10,200
Sunday, everything's on Sunday.
And if you look at the way it's

1304
01:20:10,200 --> 01:20:15,300
going, I think they're going to
be targeting that Saturday every

1305
01:20:15,300 --> 01:20:18,600
year, because there's no,
Petition with the NFL.

1306
01:20:18,700 --> 01:20:21,400
But for casual football, fans,
who are getting prepared for the

1307
01:20:21,400 --> 01:20:24,300
last weekend away saying it's
two of the biggest cotton and

1308
01:20:24,300 --> 01:20:26,500
college.
Football games right here,

1309
01:20:26,600 --> 01:20:29,500
probably at 4:30 and 8:00 on a
Saturday night.

1310
01:20:29,800 --> 01:20:31,700
In the middle of January with
nothing else to do.

1311
01:20:32,400 --> 01:20:34,200
Yep.
And then roughly, after that

1312
01:20:34,200 --> 01:20:37,800
happens, you roughly have about
what a nine-day window until the

1313
01:20:37,800 --> 01:20:40,300
national championship game.
Exactly.

1314
01:20:40,600 --> 01:20:44,400
So they're your boy in the NFL.
Yep.

1315
01:20:44,400 --> 01:20:47,700
So we're looking at, I think we
said seven, eight eight to

1316
01:20:47,708 --> 01:20:51,800
twelve between each round in
there, like, depending on where

1317
01:20:51,800 --> 01:20:57,000
that that New Year's Day falls
and that's going to be big

1318
01:20:57,500 --> 01:20:59,500
because it's going to give give
them an opportunity.

1319
01:20:59,500 --> 01:21:05,000
Like you said to have full reign
of a Saturday again.

1320
01:21:06,300 --> 01:21:10,800
No competition from the NFL, you
got your own day there, it's on

1321
01:21:10,800 --> 01:21:15,300
a weekend.
You can have like a three or

1322
01:21:15,300 --> 01:21:17,300
five and then have your 8:00 or
8:30.

1323
01:21:17,800 --> 01:21:21,200
Yeah, but it's all yours and it
can be a build up.

1324
01:21:21,200 --> 01:21:24,500
There can be a huge game day at
both locations.

1325
01:21:24,900 --> 01:21:30,700
You know, these are going to be
bowl games and that does sort of

1326
01:21:30,700 --> 01:21:38,200
stink a little bit because You
know, but that is what it is.

1327
01:21:38,200 --> 01:21:41,000
But again, I think just looking
at 10,000 feet.

1328
01:21:41,000 --> 01:21:46,700
It's like this perfect here here
here here and it's four games in

1329
01:21:46,700 --> 01:21:49,000
a month.
But with enough break time in

1330
01:21:49,000 --> 01:21:51,500
between for each for the players
to essentially, get the

1331
01:21:51,500 --> 01:21:53,700
appropriate amount of rest
you're not going on a five-day

1332
01:21:53,700 --> 01:21:55,800
short week.
Everything's going to be thought

1333
01:21:55,800 --> 01:21:58,600
out and maybe in the future they
move the game back to like a

1334
01:21:58,608 --> 01:22:00,900
Thursday, which would make
sense, because I hate Monday

1335
01:22:00,900 --> 01:22:03,600
night games.
It kills you, unless it's your

1336
01:22:03,600 --> 01:22:07,200
team playing.
All right, Brian.

1337
01:22:07,200 --> 01:22:10,100
Let's make some bold picks
because Friday afternoon.

1338
01:22:10,100 --> 01:22:13,900
They start.
We are glad they do.

1339
01:22:14,300 --> 01:22:17,700
We are glutton for punishment.
Let's hit up here.

1340
01:22:17,700 --> 01:22:21,600
The Bahamas Bowl.
I don't know how this bowl.

1341
01:22:21,600 --> 01:22:24,600
Doesn't get more Fanfare because
it's the Bahamas in December.

1342
01:22:24,600 --> 01:22:27,100
It's like 80 it's Breezy.
It's nice.

1343
01:22:27,500 --> 01:22:32,800
It's Miami of Ohio versus UAB.
I'll leave this one.

1344
01:22:32,800 --> 01:22:36,800
I have no clue but I'm I'm
trying to trim gel for manages

1345
01:22:36,800 --> 01:22:42,100
games and that team that team is
going to manage a win to impress

1346
01:22:42,100 --> 01:22:46,800
their new head coach.
Yeah, I'm gonna go UAB as well.

1347
01:22:49,600 --> 01:22:52,500
I think they get it done.
It feels right, it just feels

1348
01:22:52,500 --> 01:22:56,500
right now.
The next one is actually a bit

1349
01:22:56,500 --> 01:23:00,700
more interesting and to me of
that first weekend it might be

1350
01:23:00,700 --> 01:23:03,700
the most interesting bowl game.
It's the Cure Bowl on Friday

1351
01:23:03,700 --> 01:23:09,000
night with the 25th ranked UTSA
roadrunners versus number. 24.

1352
01:23:09,000 --> 01:23:13,300
Troy CT.
UTSA wins a Conference USA

1353
01:23:13,300 --> 01:23:15,100
championship.
Ian ship, Troy wins the Sun

1354
01:23:15,100 --> 01:23:18,800
Belt.
What do you think on this one?

1355
01:23:18,800 --> 01:23:20,100
Brian?
Because you feel like these are

1356
01:23:20,100 --> 01:23:21,900
two very well-coached football
teams.

1357
01:23:21,900 --> 01:23:24,700
Both with I think double digit
wins already.

1358
01:23:25,800 --> 01:23:29,000
I feel like it's going to be a
good game just because of, you

1359
01:23:29,000 --> 01:23:34,300
know, you know the this the
level of competition for both.

1360
01:23:34,800 --> 01:23:37,900
Yeah, I think it's gonna be a
good game but give meteoroid,

1361
01:23:38,800 --> 01:23:43,600
I'm gonna take Troy here, they
finished the season as good as

1362
01:23:43,800 --> 01:23:51,000
Team at the G5 level, okay?
And as as good as as a lot of

1363
01:23:51,000 --> 01:23:54,400
teams could in the country
altogether but the way they

1364
01:23:54,400 --> 01:23:56,600
finished the season, I think
they're going to they're going

1365
01:23:56,600 --> 01:23:58,300
to close about take care of
business.

1366
01:23:59,200 --> 01:24:02,700
All right I'm gonna I'm gonna go
against you here Jeff trailer

1367
01:24:02,700 --> 01:24:06,000
down at UTSA that a guy who
legitimately had coached High

1368
01:24:06,000 --> 01:24:10,800
School football for like 20 plus
years and then just UTSA.

1369
01:24:10,800 --> 01:24:12,300
Hey do you want this college
job?

1370
01:24:12,300 --> 01:24:13,600
He takes it.
He's been sick.

1371
01:24:13,700 --> 01:24:16,100
Successful.
There the whole time.

1372
01:24:16,300 --> 01:24:21,700
His only two losses this year
are Houston and Texas and the

1373
01:24:21,700 --> 01:24:23,700
Texas game was legitimately a
game.

1374
01:24:23,700 --> 01:24:28,400
Until the late third, quarter
beat some really good teams in

1375
01:24:28,400 --> 01:24:33,200
Conference USA dominated.
Most of them dominated their

1376
01:24:33,200 --> 01:24:38,100
conference Championship game so
I think UTSA takes it just to be

1377
01:24:38,100 --> 01:24:42,000
contrary and just so you know
watching it's a Friday night

1378
01:24:42,000 --> 01:24:44,400
when you're wrong.
You're You're wrong.

1379
01:24:44,600 --> 01:24:49,500
I hope so.
On Saturday, a slate full of

1380
01:24:49,500 --> 01:24:51,100
game.
Six bowls.

1381
01:24:51,600 --> 01:24:55,800
Everybody says, why do they keep
bowl games on they suck.

1382
01:24:56,000 --> 01:24:58,300
But you know what?
People are going to do Saturday.

1383
01:24:59,200 --> 01:25:03,200
They're going it's cold outside.
If they have shopping to do,

1384
01:25:03,200 --> 01:25:05,700
they're going to get it done in
the morning, then they're going

1385
01:25:05,700 --> 01:25:08,600
to come back and they're going
to crack a beer open.

1386
01:25:08,900 --> 01:25:12,600
Pour it pour a little glass of a
little mixture there and they're

1387
01:25:12,600 --> 01:25:15,800
going to sit their ass on the
couch and they're going to watch

1388
01:25:15,900 --> 01:25:19,900
bowl games.
All stinking day and it starts

1389
01:25:20,200 --> 01:25:24,300
with the Fenway Bowl Louisville
versus Cincinnati.

1390
01:25:24,300 --> 01:25:27,500
Can we please have both the
coaches on the sidelines for

1391
01:25:27,500 --> 01:25:32,500
this one just for pure hell.
It's also a revisiting for the

1392
01:25:32,500 --> 01:25:36,100
battle of the keg of nails and
old rivalry trophy.

1393
01:25:36,700 --> 01:25:38,300
Yeah.
So you get an old rivalry

1394
01:25:38,300 --> 01:25:43,800
trophy, you get the coach Swap
and you get a layout where

1395
01:25:43,800 --> 01:25:46,300
typically the teams are on the
same side line.

1396
01:25:46,800 --> 01:25:49,000
Exactly.
It doesn't get any better than

1397
01:25:49,000 --> 01:25:51,800
this and it's an 11:00 kick, I
think, let me check.

1398
01:25:51,800 --> 01:25:54,500
I think that's another thing.
Fenway's always, an 11:00.

1399
01:25:54,500 --> 01:25:59,200
A, yes, it is breakfast.
If you want, if you want to eat

1400
01:25:59,200 --> 01:26:07,000
breakfast, brunch time, get you
a mimosa, get you a Bloody Mary.

1401
01:26:08,400 --> 01:26:11,500
Get you a Benny get you
something good.

1402
01:26:12,800 --> 01:26:16,500
So who do you get?
I got to lead this one, right?

1403
01:26:16,600 --> 01:26:20,500
Um I'm gonna say this I think
Louisville's going to take this

1404
01:26:20,500 --> 01:26:23,900
game I think the addition of
Brom definitely gets them a

1405
01:26:23,900 --> 01:26:27,000
little bit more of a boost.
I think losing fickle is a lot

1406
01:26:27,400 --> 01:26:30,000
for Cincinnati.
I think it's an energy.

1407
01:26:30,000 --> 01:26:31,700
I think this is going to be an
entertaining game.

1408
01:26:32,100 --> 01:26:35,300
Just knowing both Styles.
I think Malik Cunningham I think

1409
01:26:35,300 --> 01:26:38,900
he's playing.
I'm not seeing He has not opted

1410
01:26:38,900 --> 01:26:42,100
out, has he?
I haven't seen that he has, so

1411
01:26:42,100 --> 01:26:45,800
I'm assuming he is until I hear
otherwise, let me just make sure

1412
01:26:45,800 --> 01:26:48,600
here.
He's day-to-day got banged up a

1413
01:26:48,608 --> 01:26:51,600
couple weeks ago so I don't see
anything.

1414
01:26:51,600 --> 01:26:55,300
I'll take Louisville in an
entertaining game at Fenway

1415
01:26:55,300 --> 01:27:01,200
Park.
I'm going to take sense of here

1416
01:27:01,200 --> 01:27:04,300
just to be contrarian.
I think this is gonna be an

1417
01:27:04,300 --> 01:27:07,200
interesting game.
Regardless both teams have

1418
01:27:07,200 --> 01:27:10,100
similar level talent and your
argue Louisville probably has

1419
01:27:10,100 --> 01:27:14,600
the best playmaker since he
probably has the better top to

1420
01:27:14,600 --> 01:27:19,000
bottom roster and turns of what
they've been able to do so.

1421
01:27:20,700 --> 01:27:24,700
I'll take Cynthia by hair there.
Just to have something to text

1422
01:27:24,700 --> 01:27:26,500
about that morning, right?
Yep.

1423
01:27:27,400 --> 01:27:28,700
All right.
Well, let's go rejoin.

1424
01:27:28,700 --> 01:27:31,200
Our Bloody Mary's are enjoying a
bloody mary.

1425
01:27:31,800 --> 01:27:34,300
Absolutely.
All right, let's go to this one.

1426
01:27:34,700 --> 01:27:37,900
I don't know how this bowl.
Doesn't get more recognition.

1427
01:27:37,900 --> 01:27:43,000
It's in freaking Vegas, but the
Las Vegas Bowl Florida versus

1428
01:27:43,000 --> 01:27:47,900
Oregon State.
Oregon State, 14th, obviously

1429
01:27:47,900 --> 01:27:52,500
pulling the huge upset over
organ in the Civil War at the on

1430
01:27:52,500 --> 01:27:54,400
Thanksgiving.
The weekend who you got in this

1431
01:27:54,400 --> 01:27:58,700
one, Brian.
I'm taking Oregon State.

1432
01:28:00,500 --> 01:28:02,600
I like the way they closed the
season.

1433
01:28:03,000 --> 01:28:05,000
I don't like what?
Florida look, like down the

1434
01:28:05,000 --> 01:28:07,200
stretch.
I think this is Oregon State's.

1435
01:28:08,300 --> 01:28:10,700
All right, Oregon State, I'm
with you there.

1436
01:28:11,000 --> 01:28:14,200
If for nothing else, with
Anthony Richardson, declaring

1437
01:28:14,200 --> 01:28:17,200
for the draft, which to me.
He should not be declaring for

1438
01:28:17,200 --> 01:28:19,400
the draft.
I don't get that.

1439
01:28:20,000 --> 01:28:23,900
I do not get that whatsoever.
You're at least a year to early

1440
01:28:23,900 --> 01:28:27,200
Sun way too much.
I've know if there was not

1441
01:28:27,200 --> 01:28:31,400
enough development this year in
his game to go, and I also with

1442
01:28:31,400 --> 01:28:37,000
Mi Elders, there's less reason
to jump unless you're fully

1443
01:28:37,000 --> 01:28:42,800
ready like Just, you know, a
quarterback like him at Florida.

1444
01:28:42,800 --> 01:28:47,400
Could rake in 250 300.
Yeah.

1445
01:28:47,400 --> 01:28:51,200
Easy maybe even higher lower in
36 figures, right?

1446
01:28:54,000 --> 01:28:57,100
If that's not enough to to
float, the boats and need to be

1447
01:28:57,100 --> 01:29:01,100
floated until your game is where
it needs to be to take the next

1448
01:29:01,100 --> 01:29:03,400
step.
Don't go man.

1449
01:29:05,200 --> 01:29:08,600
This is this isn't two years ago
when you know you make this type

1450
01:29:08,600 --> 01:29:12,800
of decision, you're looking at
your long term versus your short

1451
01:29:12,800 --> 01:29:16,600
term within IL.
It's a different kettle of fish.

1452
01:29:18,900 --> 01:29:20,400
Who plays quarterback for
Florida?

1453
01:29:20,900 --> 01:29:23,900
I don't know.
And I haven't researched it that

1454
01:29:23,900 --> 01:29:26,100
far, but it's not Anthony
Richardson.

1455
01:29:26,100 --> 01:29:29,200
So in that is, right?
And then Anthony Richardson, I'm

1456
01:29:29,200 --> 01:29:30,500
not losing my, yeah.
You're right.

1457
01:29:30,700 --> 01:29:36,000
Okay, it's one of those days.
I, um, let's go next out to the

1458
01:29:36,000 --> 01:29:39,500
LA Bowl in Wazoo versus Fresno
State.

1459
01:29:39,800 --> 01:29:42,000
I'm taking this one.
Real easy, Fresno State on a

1460
01:29:42,008 --> 01:29:46,200
roll, beating Boise for the
Mountain, West Title, I think

1461
01:29:46,200 --> 01:29:48,700
they continue to do it.
It in their backyard.

1462
01:29:48,900 --> 01:29:54,600
Give me Fresno to keep it
rolling and knockoff wazoo.

1463
01:29:55,800 --> 01:29:58,100
Yeah, I'm right there with you.
Fresno State and this one,

1464
01:29:59,300 --> 01:30:03,000
probably not even whatever the
spread is I'm taking.

1465
01:30:03,100 --> 01:30:07,400
I'm taking Fresno in the points.
Fresno's only laying three.

1466
01:30:07,600 --> 01:30:10,000
So you got to be in the game
were gone.

1467
01:30:10,000 --> 01:30:12,700
It all right, if we give you
Fresno, all right, the next

1468
01:30:12,700 --> 01:30:14,500
one's in, is the ugliest.
One of the day.

1469
01:30:14,500 --> 01:30:18,200
It's the LendingTree Bowl.
Five and seven Rice versus six

1470
01:30:18,200 --> 01:30:23,400
and six Southern Miss, they
happen.

1471
01:30:23,600 --> 01:30:26,800
Yes, we know the six.
And 16s happen.

1472
01:30:26,800 --> 01:30:29,200
All the time.
Rice shouldn't be here.

1473
01:30:29,200 --> 01:30:33,800
Southern Miss Yeah, give me give
me Southern Miss.

1474
01:30:34,500 --> 01:30:37,900
Give me the farb Scandal.
Let's do this.

1475
01:30:38,300 --> 01:30:42,500
Let's see how many times.
Will the far Scandal be

1476
01:30:42,500 --> 01:30:47,000
discussed on this path, which is
going to be on ESPN.

1477
01:30:47,300 --> 01:30:52,000
I'd go 5 verily School lead with
it.

1478
01:30:52,000 --> 01:30:54,400
They're going to lead coming out
of halftime.

1479
01:30:54,400 --> 01:30:57,600
They're going to have some sort
of expose somewhere during a

1480
01:30:57,600 --> 01:31:01,400
good time out where they don't
go to break.

1481
01:31:02,000 --> 01:31:05,600
It'll be something absolutely.
Alright, couple more here for

1482
01:31:05,600 --> 01:31:08,300
Saturday and we're going to hit
next week's games up until when

1483
01:31:08,300 --> 01:31:12,900
we are alive.
Next week, New Mexico Bowl SMU

1484
01:31:12,900 --> 01:31:16,200
versus BYU who you taking in
this one.

1485
01:31:16,200 --> 01:31:20,700
Brian.
Man.

1486
01:31:22,400 --> 01:31:25,600
This is a tough and I think I'm
a role as at SMU here though.

1487
01:31:26,100 --> 01:31:30,600
Yeah, I'm with you on that SMU
close the season, strong winning

1488
01:31:30,600 --> 01:31:34,100
three of their last four.
The only loss was to AAC winner

1489
01:31:34,100 --> 01:31:40,100
Tulane and BYU's just been kind
of up and down like all year,

1490
01:31:40,100 --> 01:31:46,000
they played good some games,
they play Bad some games so I'll

1491
01:31:46,000 --> 01:31:47,300
go with the team.
That's been a little bit more

1492
01:31:47,300 --> 01:31:49,100
consistent I'm with you with
SMU.

1493
01:31:49,500 --> 01:31:52,100
I late Saturday night Fresco
Bowl.

1494
01:31:52,200 --> 01:31:56,700
Go and Fresco Frisco Texas, the
runners-up of the Conference

1495
01:31:56,700 --> 01:31:59,400
USA, in Mountain West Boise
versus North Texas.

1496
01:32:01,500 --> 01:32:06,200
I'm going to take Boise North
Texas, kind of luckily to get in

1497
01:32:06,200 --> 01:32:10,400
to see USA championship game.
You know, you kind of look at

1498
01:32:10,400 --> 01:32:12,200
what they did probably their
best.

1499
01:32:12,200 --> 01:32:23,400
When all year was probably, Yes,
thing the best one all year,

1500
01:32:23,800 --> 01:32:26,400
maybe Live tech, maybe Western
Kentucky.

1501
01:32:26,900 --> 01:32:28,900
Now I'm not saying a lot so give
me Boise.

1502
01:32:29,400 --> 01:32:30,900
Yeah, I'm riding the mean green
here.

1503
01:32:31,800 --> 01:32:39,300
All right, North Texas for Brian
the Myrtle Beach Bowl.

1504
01:32:39,300 --> 01:32:46,400
Brian Marshall versus UConn
UConn, give up, give your own

1505
01:32:46,400 --> 01:32:49,700
Colts head coach son, some
credit went up there and Coach

1506
01:32:49,700 --> 01:32:55,000
them boys to a six and six
record versus one of our lead.

1507
01:32:55,000 --> 01:32:58,000
Favorites last year for the
Hokies job while we were sitting

1508
01:32:58,000 --> 01:33:01,400
here for over a year ago,
discussing that in Charles, huh

1509
01:33:01,400 --> 01:33:04,500
food, you know big wins this
year against Notre Dame.

1510
01:33:04,500 --> 01:33:09,700
Big wins against App State Wait,
but what are you thinking on

1511
01:33:09,700 --> 01:33:13,900
this one?
I think UConn has the better

1512
01:33:13,900 --> 01:33:17,100
story I think Marshall has the
better team Marshall takes it.

1513
01:33:18,000 --> 01:33:21,700
I'll go with Marshall to I think
Marshall also have likely a home

1514
01:33:21,700 --> 01:33:24,600
field advantage down in Myrtle
Beach.

1515
01:33:24,900 --> 01:33:28,400
All righty.
That's a 230 kick on Monday

1516
01:33:28,400 --> 01:33:31,400
afternoon.
Can they push those back?

1517
01:33:31,400 --> 01:33:34,700
Can they all be 5:00 kicks?
There's a little bit.

1518
01:33:34,700 --> 01:33:37,300
It's like Tuesday, you got two
games on Tuesday, you got

1519
01:33:37,300 --> 01:33:39,000
Eastern Michigan, versus San
Jose's.

1520
01:33:39,000 --> 01:33:41,500
A330 kick at the pins at the
potato.

1521
01:33:41,700 --> 01:33:45,700
Bowl.
I don't know much about either

1522
01:33:45,700 --> 01:33:48,100
of these teams.
I'll just go Eastern, Michigan.

1523
01:33:53,500 --> 01:33:56,200
I'm gonna go Eastern Michigan to
take.

1524
01:33:56,200 --> 01:33:59,700
Your bowl.
Is alright, it already.

1525
01:33:59,700 --> 01:34:03,000
So then we got the Boca Raton
Bowl.

1526
01:34:03,800 --> 01:34:06,700
The question is, will this bowl
end up in a fist fight?

1527
01:34:06,700 --> 01:34:09,800
As it did a few years ago when
Memphis and BYU played it, which

1528
01:34:09,800 --> 01:34:11,800
was always interesting this
year.

1529
01:34:11,800 --> 01:34:15,000
It's even more interesting that
it's Liberty versus Toledo.

1530
01:34:17,300 --> 01:34:23,600
It's Liberty versus Toledo.
Who are you taking in this game?

1531
01:34:28,400 --> 01:34:32,800
Boca Raton.
Gimme, I'm going to take the

1532
01:34:32,800 --> 01:34:35,400
flames.
You want to take the Flames?

1533
01:34:35,900 --> 01:34:40,000
The Hugh freeze less frames.
I think go down in flames.

1534
01:34:40,500 --> 01:34:43,400
I think Hood Toledo.
They won the MAC.

1535
01:34:43,600 --> 01:34:45,900
Probably should be in a slightly
better bowl with that.

1536
01:34:45,900 --> 01:34:49,400
Is what it is Toledo to me.
Had a really good year.

1537
01:34:49,400 --> 01:34:51,400
We picked against them a couple
weeks ago.

1538
01:34:52,700 --> 01:34:55,000
You know, I think Toledo takes
this one.

1539
01:34:56,200 --> 01:34:59,100
All right, there is only a
believe we got one more.

1540
01:35:00,100 --> 01:35:05,100
We pull that up here on the
21st, so, a week from tonight

1541
01:35:05,100 --> 01:35:07,900
and a week, Nolan's the New
Orleans Bowl.

1542
01:35:07,900 --> 01:35:13,400
But a week from tonight, we will
be sitting here with talibans

1543
01:35:14,100 --> 01:35:19,100
with Jeremy.
Y'all, if y'all have not watched

1544
01:35:19,100 --> 01:35:27,000
this episode watch it live, it's
super entertaining because we

1545
01:35:27,000 --> 01:35:29,800
got Jonathan tally spaces
expert.

1546
01:35:29,900 --> 01:35:36,100
Kurt bamas.
Biggest hockey, fan, we got

1547
01:35:36,400 --> 01:35:39,600
everybody knows, dr.
Lord, Jeremy counts.

1548
01:35:40,900 --> 01:35:46,000
Ha ha.
We've, we've done this.

1549
01:35:46,000 --> 01:35:47,900
We've had Jeremy on the last two
years.

1550
01:35:47,900 --> 01:35:50,400
We had tally on with Jeremy last
year.

1551
01:35:50,400 --> 01:35:55,000
I feel like this is going to be
our annual state of the program

1552
01:35:56,000 --> 01:35:58,700
yearly episode where we bring
these two on.

1553
01:35:59,900 --> 01:36:03,500
Absolutely and just we're going
to cut up, we're going.

1554
01:36:03,500 --> 01:36:06,500
We're going to talk a little
kind of close out early Signing

1555
01:36:06,500 --> 01:36:09,100
Day and then we're going to,
we're going, we're going to cut

1556
01:36:09,100 --> 01:36:13,000
up and talk to program and hit
every corner of what happened

1557
01:36:13,000 --> 01:36:15,100
this season.
What's happened with the class?

1558
01:36:15,800 --> 01:36:20,300
What we need to do between now?
And when spring practice starts

1559
01:36:20,300 --> 01:36:24,300
up kind of touch on a little bit
of everything, is we kind of

1560
01:36:24,300 --> 01:36:28,400
roll into the new year
abso-freakin'-lutely.

1561
01:36:28,400 --> 01:36:31,700
So next, Wednesday, Wednesday
not Tuesday.

1562
01:36:33,200 --> 01:36:36,200
I was going to ask Brian.
If you can do it Thursday but

1563
01:36:36,200 --> 01:36:38,300
you know I got a guy
accommodate.

1564
01:36:38,900 --> 01:36:41,800
Well I'm see Thursday, I will be
in South Boston.

1565
01:36:42,000 --> 01:36:46,100
And if you remember last year,
the internet connectivity issues

1566
01:36:46,100 --> 01:36:53,100
I was having this oh I'd prefer
to be able to do it while I'm

1567
01:36:53,100 --> 01:36:56,300
still here because it we're
going to let relying upon South

1568
01:36:56,300 --> 01:36:59,500
Boston, internet connections at
all.

1569
01:37:00,000 --> 01:37:01,800
I'm just more upset.
I told you, I'm about to take it

1570
01:37:01,800 --> 01:37:03,200
easy because I got to work the
next day.

1571
01:37:03,600 --> 01:37:06,200
I can't do it.
I did what I did two years ago

1572
01:37:06,200 --> 01:37:10,400
when I was off.
That was all on.

1573
01:37:10,400 --> 01:37:12,300
All three of us were hammered
that 10-man.

1574
01:37:13,200 --> 01:37:16,300
Now that little Hammer.
Yeah, full hammered and all of

1575
01:37:16,300 --> 01:37:19,000
us are feeling good and Jeremy
was feeling real good last year.

1576
01:37:19,000 --> 01:37:22,800
So yes, he was Jeremy's promise.
He's going to paste this year.

1577
01:37:23,100 --> 01:37:28,300
We'll see how that goes.
These processes I'm just going

1578
01:37:28,300 --> 01:37:31,300
to tell it just eat a full meal.
Man, you see the full name?

1579
01:37:31,700 --> 01:37:33,800
All right.
One more game to pick.

1580
01:37:33,800 --> 01:37:38,000
It'll probably be back here on
the television screen as we are

1581
01:37:38,000 --> 01:37:40,800
talking to Jeremy and Hali next
week.

1582
01:37:40,800 --> 01:37:44,100
And that's Western Kentucky
versus South Alabama.

1583
01:37:44,400 --> 01:37:48,600
In the New Orleans Bowl South
Alabama, 10 and to Western

1584
01:37:48,600 --> 01:37:52,600
Kentucky Aiden for so to pretty
good G5 teams going at it here,

1585
01:37:53,700 --> 01:37:56,500
we think on this one Braun even
though we won't be really well,

1586
01:37:56,500 --> 01:37:58,800
you'll be watching, it'll
probably be right there for you

1587
01:37:58,800 --> 01:38:02,700
but little bit.
Above me while I'm throwing back

1588
01:38:02,700 --> 01:38:06,800
some shots and crushing some
beers while we talk state of the

1589
01:38:06,800 --> 01:38:08,300
program.
But I'm going to take Western

1590
01:38:08,300 --> 01:38:11,800
Kentucky here.
All right, good deal.

1591
01:38:12,200 --> 01:38:14,800
I'm gonna go opposite of you for
the last pick.

1592
01:38:14,800 --> 01:38:18,300
I'm going to go, south Alabama,
South Alabama tending to their

1593
01:38:18,300 --> 01:38:23,200
only losses this year were to
Troy by four and they lost.

1594
01:38:23,200 --> 01:38:25,900
If you remember the UCLA game
early in the year where you

1595
01:38:25,900 --> 01:38:31,400
Shelly pulled a freaking miracle
and scored a touchdown with,

1596
01:38:31,400 --> 01:38:35,600
like I think it was like two or
a field goal, two seconds left,

1597
01:38:35,700 --> 01:38:38,700
like literal Miracle.
So give me South Alabama.

1598
01:38:39,200 --> 01:38:42,900
All right, other than the Ryan,
In Walters news, which came out

1599
01:38:42,900 --> 01:38:46,100
of nowhere because I guess I had
looked at my phone close enough

1600
01:38:46,100 --> 01:38:49,000
in the last few hours here.
What else you got?

1601
01:38:49,100 --> 01:38:51,400
Run?
That's all we got man.

1602
01:38:51,900 --> 01:38:53,700
All right, ready to close
whenever you are.

1603
01:38:54,100 --> 01:38:57,400
