The Hokies folded late in the JMA Dome against Syracuse to fall to a disappointing 5-4 and now wait to host a Clemson team coming off their own disappointment at home against Louisville. We get to Know the Enemy in the visiting Tigers before we circle back to Tell the Truth about a game that may have been a tipping point for many in Hokie Nation. We wrap as always with our Big Screeners Picks presented by Counts Family Pharmacy.

00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:46,560
Music.
Welcome back to the Delmgree
2
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:49,400
Corner podcast, a part of the
College Huddle network along
3
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,320
with my partner, Brian Siegler,
Jonathan Talley and Shelton
4
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:54,320
Moss.
I am Curtis Wilson and as
5
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:58,640
always, we will you by Doctor
Jeremy Kell down at Kells Family
6
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,320
Pharmacy, your friendly
neighborhood pharmacy located at
7
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,560
three O 1 S Main St. in
Blacksburg.
8
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:09,080
And before we get everything
started tonight, because we got
9
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,880
obviously a lot to unload.
We have been preaching the last
10
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:15,080
three weeks.
We had something to give away.
11
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,560
We've been asking people put
1999 in the chat.
12
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:22,000
Well over 100 people did that
and subscribe to the YouTube
13
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:28,280
channel and earlier today,
Brian, via the magic of
14
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,520
everything online nowadays,
because you can put names in a
15
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,000
thing, they'll pull it out.
We have our winner.
16
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,360
I can throw the process out
there real quick.
17
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:39,480
It's a pain, yeah.
All right, so I gathered all the
18
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:43,760
people that commented.
I got them assigned a number.
19
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:49,040
I had AI pick a number for me,
gave them the numbers that we
20
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:53,680
got, had them pick a number,
trace that back to the name and
21
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:54,800
Curtis is going to read it for
you.
22
00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:58,360
The name of the winner and we
hope you are listening tonight
23
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,720
because dude, jump in the
comments and we can start trying
24
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:05,800
to get in touch with you.
It is a Jonathan Harris 8975.
25
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:13,520
Jonathan Harris 8975.
We appreciate you listening.
26
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:15,720
Not only that, but subscribing
as well.
27
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:18,280
We will ask you to get in touch
with us.
28
00:02:18,640 --> 00:02:20,840
Brian, what's going to be the
easiest way?
29
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,560
Hey, Twitter is probably going
to be the best.
30
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,080
Hit us up at Twitter if you
can't do that.
31
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,800
If you don't have a Twitter,
best is going to be e-mail us
32
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:36,520
admin@boundarycornervt.com.
Yep, big congratulations to
33
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:41,080
Jonathan there.
And we are a four man crew
34
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:45,480
tonight.
We got a lot to unload and
35
00:02:45,640 --> 00:02:47,280
usually we start with tell the
truth.
36
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:51,320
I I had to talk to these guys.
I said we we can't tell the
37
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,480
truth because I think tell the
truth is going to take a little
38
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,920
while tonight.
I'm just being dead serious.
39
00:02:55,920 --> 00:02:58,440
I don't think we're going to be
here for four or five minutes
40
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,240
doing Tell the Truth on each
section because we got a shit
41
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,600
ton to unload about what's going
on with the program right now.
42
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,520
So we are going to start kind of
out of routine.
43
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,160
We're going to start with Know
the Enemy.
44
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,640
We need to talk about Clemson
real quick because that game is
45
00:03:14,640 --> 00:03:18,320
Saturday at 3:30 at Lane
Stadium.
46
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,600
So we're going to jump into that
right now.
47
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:22,440
We're going to talk a little bit
about their players.
48
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,800
Brian did some tape review.
Let's start with the offense.
49
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:30,080
Brian led by Garrett Riley,
obviously from the Riley family
50
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:34,160
of offense.
What's he running and what what
51
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:38,480
are we looking to see Saturday
on at 3:30?
52
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:43,000
Yeah, looking at their offense,
I mean this is the fast-paced
53
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,280
kind of run.
First Air Raid esque system
54
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,360
emphasizes aggressive play
calls.
55
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,160
They run a lot of 11 personnel
and they have a a really big
56
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:55,360
focus on kind of establishing
that run so they can get really
57
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,720
aggressive with their with their
past play calls.
58
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:03,960
All right, and obviously led by
you know four and five star
59
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,480
quarterback Cade Clubnick got
off in Texas.
60
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,520
Solid number so far this year
with Clubnick.
61
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:16,519
If y'all haven't seen, you know,
21 touchdowns, 3 picks well over
62
00:04:16,519 --> 00:04:20,920
65 or just over 65% completion
right at 2000 yards.
63
00:04:21,959 --> 00:04:24,760
And if you look at his Russian
numbers, like this is not like
64
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:28,960
Kyle fucking McCord last week.
Cade's got some wheels.
65
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,360
Y'all seen it.
He averages about five times
66
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,480
every time he takes off.
So what?
67
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,560
What else do we see from him,
Brian?
68
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,280
And then guys, anything y'all
want to chime in with after
69
00:04:38,280 --> 00:04:39,520
Brian gives his little
breakdown?
70
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,040
Yeah.
I mean, looking at Cade, man,
71
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,560
he's a yeah, he definitely dual
threat, kind of a pass first
72
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:50,280
dual threat quarterback, has
that gunslinger mentality.
73
00:04:50,280 --> 00:04:53,880
So we'll sling it in the similar
way we saw with McCord last
74
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:57,320
week, but definitely has more of
a threat to take off in the
75
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:01,200
running game then then what we
saw from McCord in Syracuse.
76
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:05,240
This is a guy that can make all
the throws, does really well
77
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,560
with with slinging the football
around, can make some things a
78
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,760
little bit off platform as well.
Probably not as bread and
79
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,120
butter, but definitely not a not
a weakness either.
80
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:18,040
He progresses through those
reads pretty well, especially
81
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,600
for, you know, Mark, marginally
experienced collegiate
82
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,720
quarterback at this point.
But you know, thinking about
83
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,280
gunslinger mentality, he can't
force throws, especially when
84
00:05:27,280 --> 00:05:30,840
he's under duress and especially
when he's kind of out there big
85
00:05:30,840 --> 00:05:32,960
play hunting.
Like a lot of times he'll try to
86
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:34,760
make the big play instead of the
right play.
87
00:05:37,280 --> 00:05:40,080
Tally Sheldon anything on
clubnet with y'all seen?
88
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,280
I know y'all watch games.
Sheldon, I know you probably
89
00:05:42,280 --> 00:05:47,440
looked at some data points.
Yeah, PFF really likes him, you
90
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,640
know, even more so than some of
the overall efficiency metrics
91
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,760
would suggest.
Now why is that?
92
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:56,320
I mean, I would say, you know a
couple things pretty solid as a
93
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:57,640
runner.
So that's part of it.
94
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,400
Also his his turn around worthy
play percentage is pretty low,
95
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:02,400
less than 2%, which is pretty
good.
96
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:06,400
So he's avoided the disastrous,
disastrous plays overall in the
97
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,120
season for him, 21 to three
touch interception ratio.
98
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:10,840
So he's been pretty, pretty
efficient with the football the
99
00:06:10,840 --> 00:06:14,280
entire season, really.
Yep, same thing I was going to
100
00:06:14,280 --> 00:06:18,680
say.
I mean, 21 touchdowns, 3
101
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:23,160
interceptions, you got to get
some pressure on them.
102
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,280
Definitely got to get some
pressure on them, but the damn
103
00:06:27,280 --> 00:06:30,800
pain in the ass thing about them
as y'all seen is they've got a
104
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:36,680
damn good running game as well.
If y'all hadn't seen Phil Moffa,
105
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:42,640
Phil again, Clemson somehow
still recruiting at a high
106
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:45,280
level.
Y'all like I was telling them,
107
00:06:45,280 --> 00:06:48,240
how did they lose to Louisville?
I'm trying to figure this out
108
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:51,800
because every single time I'm
looking up guys and ratings, top
109
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:55,160
25 player, top 50 player, top
200 player.
110
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,400
Oh, he's one of the low ones.
He's top 300.
111
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,960
How did they lose to a
Louisville team at home?
112
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,920
But let's talk about Mafa.
He was a top 200 player, 4 star
113
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:12,960
guy already this year.
You know, well over 800 yards,
114
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:17,400
probably well on his way to 1000
yards, just about 6 1/2 a carry.
115
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,160
Brian, what else are you seeing
from him?
116
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:25,400
Because he's a big boy at that.
Yeah, he's a bruiser between the
117
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:28,520
tackles, man.
You know, kind of a little bit
118
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,280
similar to tune in terms of
after, after contact, really
119
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,800
good after contact, good vision
between the tackles.
120
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,280
And you know, honestly, when we
look at our defense kind of
121
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,520
areas that we've struggled,
that's where he's good in
122
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:44,920
between the tackles, you know,
turning some some plays that
123
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,400
should be a one or two yard gain
into those 8 or 10 yard gains,
124
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:52,240
keeping the sticks moving.
I'd call him an above average
125
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,440
receiver out of the backfield.
He's not great, but he's
126
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,080
definitely serviceable in that
capacity.
127
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:00,400
Probably the only weakness in
this game.
128
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,680
He kind of lacks super high top
end speed and he's not really
129
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:07,360
that elusive in the open field.
So, you know, he's not
130
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,520
necessarily a home run threat,
but he's a guy that's going to
131
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:10,960
just grind you out the whole
game.
132
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,840
Sally Shelton.
Anything y'all seen from him
133
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:20,720
watching or nothing?
Nothing.
134
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:25,760
Right.
Right now we trying to hold
135
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,600
emotions in y'all, because if
once they explode in a little
136
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:30,520
while here, it ain't no going
back.
137
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,000
That's why I knew we couldn't do
this later, because once the
138
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:34,880
motions exploded and they are
going to explode.
139
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,720
All right, Brian, I looked at
the wide receiver room.
140
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,440
They don't have that stand out
person.
141
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,440
So for so many years Clemson
always had to stood out person,
142
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,720
whether it was Hopkins, you
know, whether it was Sammy
143
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,080
Watkins either the years where
was Hunter Renfro?
144
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,720
You knew Hunter Renfro was like
that guy.
145
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:56,360
So you looked at the tape, who
really popped to you over the
146
00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,680
when you were reviewing the bat,
the tapes there?
147
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,920
So looking at what they're
doing, looking at kind of what's
148
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,120
hurt us a lot, My eyes kind of
went a little bit of different
149
00:09:07,560 --> 00:09:10,400
way here.
So there's no real wide receiver
150
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,800
that's jumping out there.
But stat wise, play wise,
151
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,240
they're kind of just guys in, in
my opinion, it's it's it's kind
152
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:20,760
of riding the hot hand.
But in terms of looking at what
153
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,720
it's kind of hurt our defense a
lot this year.
154
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:28,520
I looked at Jake Brenningstool
tight ends have really given us
155
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:32,480
fits, especially on those kind
of plays that have kept the
156
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,040
sticks moving, kept the defense
on the field for longer than we
157
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,640
like.
So he's a guy that catches the
158
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,760
ball well, blocks well, they use
him as a decoy.
159
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,880
He can do a little bit of
everything that you want from a
160
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,400
tight end from a passing game
perspective.
161
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:51,120
So he's he's a guy that, you
know, he may not go out there
162
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,880
and, and, and catch for, you
know, 80 plus yards, but he
163
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:58,120
could be a guy that burns us on
a a handful of key first downs
164
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:03,120
that keeps them on the field.
And obviously that's been a kind
165
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:07,200
of an issue kind of all year in
the the the losses is extending
166
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,760
drives like a drive should be
dead gone.
167
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:13,840
They should be putting the ball.
And obviously that that does
168
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:17,000
worry Sheldon Valley.
Anything on Jake or any of the
169
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,800
receiving threats?
Yeah, 4 star.
170
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:24,200
You know how 4 star low five
star guy to tidy in?
171
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:29,080
He's very good.
You know, if they do anything
172
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,280
well, they're kind of running
that little dump play to them.
173
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,760
We're going to have to, we're
going to adjust really quickly
174
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:39,480
because he can catch, he can
move, he can run a 6/6, 2:50
175
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,840
somewhere around there.
He's got experience because he's
176
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,480
a senior, so we'll have our
hands full.
177
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:52,160
John, anything from you?
Yeah, Brian Wesco ranks pretty
178
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,920
highly. 17.5 average average
yards per reception.
179
00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,760
Only two TDs, but typically when
you catch the ball it tends to
180
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,440
go for a pretty big game.
Yeah, I do see that.
181
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,000
Only a couple touchdowns, but
again, it's that over the top
182
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:08,560
play and again with you have
Mafa, you know, up front there,
183
00:11:08,560 --> 00:11:10,400
keep pounding you.
I know somebody threw it in
184
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,120
there about him getting better.
It usually is the same with the
185
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:14,800
big guys that always goes like
that.
186
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,240
All right, let's flip over.
Let's hit a little bit of their
187
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:21,720
defense led by Wes Goodwin, who
I was reading after he got
188
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,320
torched last week.
He might be getting fired.
189
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,600
I know Dabo don't like firing
his people, but what's goodwill
190
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,880
maybe getting fired in a few
weeks here if you don't get crap
191
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,360
together, probably by the end,
if they lose South Carolina,
192
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,080
he's gone.
He's gone.
193
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:38,760
I'll say that they lose South
Carolina.
194
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:44,600
But Brian, what's he running and
and what are they?
195
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:47,040
What is their big philosophy on
the defensive side of the ball?
196
00:11:47,560 --> 00:11:49,440
Yeah.
I mean, it's a, it's a hybrid 43
197
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:50,960
defense.
I mean, we're kind of looking at
198
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:55,600
something we're very familiar
with this week, emphasis on
199
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:59,000
stopping the run, letting that
defensive line pin their ears
200
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,640
back in those early, those late
downs once they get you off the
201
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,920
off the schedule there.
So that's really their game
202
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:07,920
plan.
They've got a bunch of horses up
203
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:09,880
front that can really do that
very well.
204
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:11,760
And I'm sure we're going to talk
about them here shortly.
205
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,760
Yeah, we are going to talk about
them because that was the first
206
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:19,160
thing like when I looked at
where their their their run stop
207
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:23,840
was and I started looking at the
horses up front Demonte,
208
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:28,640
Capehart, Peyton Page just
jumped off And the first of all
209
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:32,840
super high ranked guys when they
came out one in 2020 with
210
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:37,040
Capehart, 2021 Peyton Page, if
that name sounds familiar, he's
211
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:40,080
from down in Greensboro.
I do believe for a while the
212
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:41,800
Hokies were in the mix for
Paige.
213
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:43,320
Tally, you're more the expert on
that.
214
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,880
But I feel like we were in the
mix for Paige for a little while
215
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,280
coming out of Greensboro.
Obviously didn't land in both
216
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:52,280
those guys.
You know, top 247 players,
217
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:59,840
Capehart effectively basically a
top 50 player, a top 10
218
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:02,960
defensive tackle and tally.
They ain't small by any means,
219
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:04,840
are they?
No, Heck no.
220
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,480
And you got size all across the
board.
221
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,280
You know, even when you feel
like Clemson's having a down
222
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,800
year, they still have talent all
over the field.
223
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,360
So when you talk about all these
high-ranking guys, they're
224
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:21,360
high-ranking for a reason.
I think NIL has spread it some
225
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:25,600
of the wealth out with some
players and transfers and stuff.
226
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,560
But schools like Clemson are
still going to be really
227
00:13:28,560 --> 00:13:32,320
talented, really talented
schools, and you have to out
228
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:37,680
coach them to beat them.
Brian, what did you see on both
229
00:13:37,680 --> 00:13:40,480
these guys?
You know, where are they playing
230
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,200
as far as is one of three tech
or we got a shade one eye.
231
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:46,480
What, what are what are we
seeing from these guys from your
232
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:50,080
tape observations?
Yeah, when we look at at the
233
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,560
tape, the more traditional 3
technique is going to be Peyton,
234
00:13:52,560 --> 00:13:54,200
Paige.
He's a lot more comfortable with
235
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:55,680
that position.
They will kind of move these
236
00:13:55,680 --> 00:13:57,400
guys around a little bit, but
he's definitely more
237
00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:01,080
comfortable. 3 technique, you
know, Speaking of Paige in
238
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:05,200
particular, technician, high
motor, really good, good
239
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,240
quickness at the snap of the
football.
240
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:11,480
Probably when you look at at
weaknesses, probably a little
241
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:14,040
underpowered for an interior
guy.
242
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:19,240
He's he's got what you would
call a weight room strength, but
243
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:23,200
it doesn't always translate onto
the field like you would like it
244
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,600
to see.
So you kind of get can get
245
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,360
caught up hand fighting instead
of shedding kind of in the
246
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,400
interior there.
But he's definitely more the the
247
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,080
three technique.
When we look at we look at Cape
248
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:37,720
art, kind of the opposite,
exceptionally strong at the
249
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,560
point of attack.
I mean this dude is strength
250
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:44,440
personified but still has great
athleticism for that size.
251
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,520
Plays with good leverage, really
good at shedding those blocks.
252
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,400
Probably the only thing that he
struggles with is, you know, pad
253
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,360
level.
Playing a little bit too tall in
254
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:57,160
the middle there.
All right.
255
00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,880
And there was one other guy.
Golly, I lost his name.
256
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,880
I thought I had it wrote down.
They did have another pretty big
257
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:05,480
guy.
Occasionally they'll line up at
258
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:09,560
the end.
If I find it, I'll get it to
259
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:11,120
you.
But I want to talk about the
260
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:13,800
edge because obviously we know
there's a problem.
261
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,760
People already putting it in the
chat and everything.
262
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:21,760
TJ Parker is obviously their big
stud, there is no doubt.
263
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,720
And that's fine.
You got one stud, it's OK, but
264
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:33,120
you can do things.
But Brian, you know, Tally, why
265
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:36,600
don't you talk on TJ Parker for
in a second here because he
266
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,920
comes from down your way.
But we got TJ.
267
00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:42,480
We know he's all world huge
recruit tallies.
268
00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:43,840
Don't break that info down in a
second.
269
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:48,240
But who's the other guy that may
give us some problems Saturday?
270
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:55,160
Peter Woods man, still a young
guy, kind of a tweener.
271
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:59,720
D tackle DN they they line him
up a little bit of everywhere,
272
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:03,480
but he's a guy that they played
a lot more at D in this year.
273
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:09,600
Quick off the snap, can bend the
edge surprisingly well and has
274
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,040
incredible stamina for a bigger
guy.
275
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:16,920
And you know, also for a bigger
guy, great motor and violent
276
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:19,120
hands.
So he's he's a bigger in he's
277
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,080
not going to be a guy that's
going to go out there and just
278
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,480
absolutely, you know, speed rush
you off the edge.
279
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:25,840
But he's got a lot of lot of
tools out there.
280
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,800
And like I said, he's got that
position flexibility where they
281
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:30,520
can slide him inside when they
need to.
282
00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:35,560
Tally, What about TJ Parker,
man?
283
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:37,640
I mean, he is from down in
Alabama.
284
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:40,720
Is that a name that you are
familiar with?
285
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:42,680
You know, before he even got to
Clemson?
286
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,720
Oh, yeah, TJ Parker is, I think
we talked about somebody last
287
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:51,920
week from from Phoenix City is
where he's from, Central,
288
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:56,000
Central, Phoenix City High
School, always a powerhouse.
289
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,680
I mean, they've got many, many
state championships.
290
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:00,640
They play in the biggest
division in Alabama.
291
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,800
Very, very talented play.
I mean, he had offers from
292
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,720
everywhere.
I think he kind of got down to
293
00:17:07,079 --> 00:17:10,040
Penn State and Clemson and
Alabama or something like that.
294
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:18,240
So Uber talented guy, you know,
great, great body size, was a
295
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:24,160
monster in high school.
You know, just you see it all
296
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:26,680
over there, you see it all over
their their their roster, you
297
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:28,880
know what I'm saying?
But also what you see over their
298
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:30,720
roster is that they're very
beatable.
299
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,960
You know, with them having these
talented guys, they're they're a
300
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,240
beatable team.
But you know, just staying on on
301
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,720
TJTJ Parker is a is a handful to
deal with.
302
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,880
You know, he's a he's a great
player and very highly ranked
303
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:47,000
out of high school.
Like I said, another five star,
304
00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:50,120
four-star high 4 star, if you
want to say, but may have been
305
00:17:50,120 --> 00:17:52,080
like a 98 somewhere around
there.
306
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:57,640
So very talented kid and you
have to you have to coach the
307
00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:00,000
beat the beat defenses like
that.
308
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,800
I mean, that's all I can say.
But he's he's, he's going to be
309
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,720
a handful.
And real quick and somebody put
310
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:09,120
this put up James's in thing
because yeah, I didn't get a
311
00:18:09,120 --> 00:18:11,000
chance up.
But yeah, that was a good point.
312
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:13,680
Yeah, yeah.
We may not see.
313
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:15,840
Cape No no, Officially ruled
out.
314
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:17,840
Officially ruled out.
Officially ruled out.
315
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,200
Sorry y'all.
We occasionally go to work and
316
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,480
occasionally we don't get to
listen to everything and read
317
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:24,960
everything.
And I got Swanwood work when I
318
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:26,440
got home.
All the kids were here with me.
319
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,000
So yeah, if you hear them in the
background, I'm sorry.
320
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,120
Yeah.
It was announced in Dabos
321
00:18:32,120 --> 00:18:35,200
presser earlier today that
Capehart will not play this
322
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,400
week.
That is a huge loss for them,
323
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:41,440
potentially a huge win for the
Hokies in that sense.
324
00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:43,720
So you might see.
A lot of Williams you might see
325
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:44,720
a lot of.
Williams.
326
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:48,360
Woods maybe sliding inside.
Yeah, so there you go.
327
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:51,280
There you go.
Making Chris laugh out here.
328
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,920
That's a good thing.
I as always, it it's Clemson.
329
00:18:56,400 --> 00:19:00,400
I won't say it Tally, but you
know it who who's the white blue
330
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:01,880
kid?
Because, you know, they got one
331
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,720
and they're the white blue kid.
Man, I mean, the quarterback,
332
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:10,520
whoever, a linebacker, and they
got plenty of them.
333
00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:13,680
This, this going to come in and
they're going to play hard.
334
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:20,200
And again, I, I honestly, I
looked at hardly no Clemson
335
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:23,960
players because whoever lines up
on the field against us, it
336
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:28,040
doesn't matter.
It does not matter because we
337
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:31,480
can play with the best of teams
and we can play down with the
338
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,000
worst of teams.
But it's going to start with us
339
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:37,280
and how we handle things, which
is what we're going to talk
340
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:40,160
about a little later.
Oh yeah, and it's fastly
341
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:43,800
approaching.
But Brian, I know Woody Wood is,
342
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:47,520
is one of them.
He is the white glue guy, but
343
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:50,160
they got another glue guy out
there as well that you liked on
344
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:53,160
tape.
Yeah, I mean, it starts and ends
345
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:57,920
of Barrett Carter, man.
Exceptional athleticism, really
346
00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,760
good change of direction,
sideline to sideline type.
347
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:04,320
Linebacker can do a little bit
of everything.
348
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:07,320
Good against the run, pretty
good in pass coverage.
349
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:11,400
Good Blitzer, high football IQ
guy.
350
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,720
Looking at him probably a bit
undersized, which kind of even,
351
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:19,400
you know, feeds more into the
glue guy aspect of of his game
352
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:22,640
there probably the biggest
weaknesses that he will
353
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,600
occasionally miss some run fits
here and there.
354
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:29,720
But in terms of athleticism and
and just overall ability, he's
355
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:31,560
the guy that kind of holds
everything together on that
356
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,480
defensive side.
All right, Sheldon, you said you
357
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,920
had a couple things you want to
throw in here about the defense.
358
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,400
Well, yeah, and the team is all
so Clemson is not elite at
359
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,680
anyone particular thing, but
they're very well-rounded.
360
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:47,160
So you know, they rank, you
know, mid 20s, high 30s and
361
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,840
pretty much all of the big
advanced statistical categories,
362
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:56,600
defense, EPA per rush allowed,
32nd per drop back 31st.
363
00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:01,120
You know, they're top 35 in EPA
per rush and drop back on
364
00:21:01,120 --> 00:21:03,440
offense as well.
So success rate's pretty good
365
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:05,400
too.
So just a pretty well-rounded
366
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,080
team.
They're not bad at anything.
367
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:11,400
The one set that stands out to
me is they lead the country in
368
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,920
rush rate below expectations.
So in other words, they pass the
369
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,920
ball more frequently than you
would expect based on down a
370
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:19,160
distance.
So they're going to sling the
371
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,160
ball around the yard pretty much
the whole game.
372
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,640
So it's going to obviously put a
lot of stress on Tech's corners,
373
00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:26,600
certainly linebackers, the
safeties.
374
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:28,960
So we'll see how that goes.
But I would say overall, just
375
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,640
just a solid team that does
everything pretty well, just not
376
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,400
necessarily a lead at one
particular thing.
377
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,520
All righty so there it is.
I told y'all we were going to
378
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:42,840
get through this quick.
Ain't as usual where we get a
379
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:46,400
lot more looking at people.
Y'all know Tally?
380
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,480
I love Tally because Tally will
come down sneaky and go watch
381
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:52,560
the extra game film and then pop
in with a couple numbers.
382
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:54,440
It won't going to be that way
this week.
383
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,000
It just won't.
So as y'all know.
384
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:58,640
It's a couple reasons.
It's a couple reasons.
385
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:02,480
For them, oh, it is number.
One, I think not a lot of people
386
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:04,880
need to know who Clemson is.
Right.
387
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:08,320
So I mean, we kind of know who
they are.
388
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:13,840
We see them, they get kind of
plastered up on any key ACC Game
389
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,680
of the week, national media
covers them.
390
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:21,400
If you're just casually
listening to ESPN or Fox or any
391
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:25,840
of those, you're going to get a
decent idea of who the guys are
392
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:29,920
for Clemson.
The other reason is what
393
00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:33,000
happened on Saturday to the
Hokies and how we wanted to give
394
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:38,560
all of us are tell the truth a
little bit more room to breathe
395
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:42,560
this week, if you will.
Because we do need to let it
396
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:44,440
breathe.
And as we go over to tell the
397
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:48,520
truth, we are brought to you by
Count's family pharmacy, your
398
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,200
friendly neighborhood pharmacy,
three O 1 S Main St.
399
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:52,920
Blacksburg.
I'm surprised Jeremy didn't
400
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:55,240
message us want to come on this
week so he could scream and
401
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:58,400
curse as much as Jeremy does.
But we've got to tell the truth
402
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,680
because the Ruth is this week.
We've got a lot to tell about
403
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,120
ourselves and I feel like we do
this once a year.
404
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,320
Obviously, we always do it in
the state of the program, but
405
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:10,880
there's a lot going on when you
lose your fourth game of the
406
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:15,600
year by less than one score.
Virginia Tech has lost four
407
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:19,520
games by less than one score.
I think it's a total combined.
408
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:24,720
Is it 21 four games by 21.22
points?
409
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:30,680
It's 21 because it was 774 and
3:00 and we got to start talking
410
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:32,880
about Coach Fry.
We got to start doing a lot of
411
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,400
stuff so right now this is how
we're going to start.
412
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,000
I want to see it in the comments
as well, because I want to see
413
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:42,120
how the pulse a hokey nation is
going, but here's what I got to
414
00:23:42,120 --> 00:23:47,320
go first of all, I'm going to
start with tally because I'm
415
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:48,920
starting with you Iron Man
let's.
416
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,240
Do it iron.
Man, put pull the mask down.
417
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:57,720
On a scale of one to 10, one
being all in, 10 being
418
00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:02,440
completely out, Where are you on
coach Brent Pry as it stands?
419
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:05,160
Remember, Remember the No 5th of
November?
420
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:09,560
10 being all out, 10 being.
Completely out.
421
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:16,440
Without explanation explanation
right now I would probably say
422
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:18,520
seven.
OK, 7 for me.
423
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:25,760
Seven for you, Shelton. 7.
OK, y'all are at the sevens.
424
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:30,880
OK, I thought Saturday Tally
might have been in a 9.7, you
425
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,120
know?
Yeah, I'll relax a little bit.
426
00:24:33,120 --> 00:24:35,120
I got I got my calm hat on right
now.
427
00:24:35,120 --> 00:24:38,760
You guys call that out?
I think Shelton was about an 8.7
428
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:42,000
on Saturday.
I was at like a 65.
429
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:47,720
I'm now at A5, Brian.
I'd say 5, five and a half.
430
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,000
Give me 5 1/2.
Give you 5 1/2.
431
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:51,280
He just wants to be slightly
above me.
432
00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:53,360
I'm the I'm the.
I got to be the one on the low
433
00:24:53,360 --> 00:24:55,080
end of the.
Total no, because I mean what I
434
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:58,640
what I'm basically saying with
my 5 1/2 is that I'm I'm no
435
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:03,160
longer in, but I'm also not out.
I'm I'm I'm in the middle, I'm
436
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:04,920
in the middle.
So let's go with it.
437
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:08,320
Tally, you know, and and
Shelton's y'all Shelton's going
438
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,240
like turn.
I got I got the fire and
439
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,480
gasoline below us here.
I try to be the water.
440
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:17,120
It's not going to be pretty, but
tally go man, because obviously
441
00:25:17,120 --> 00:25:18,960
I got some stuff, stuff we're
going to talk about.
442
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:23,360
But what is now like?
What is your hot button issue?
443
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,640
Well, we were talking about
this.
444
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:31,120
Everybody wants to know why I
got the Iron mask, man, Iron Man
445
00:25:31,120 --> 00:25:34,840
mask on.
I'm just, I'm just here to
446
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:38,320
learn.
So Sheldon, actually, I'm going
447
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,440
to talk to him and let him start
this thing off because I think
448
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:43,480
he's going to get me riled up
because he's going to come with
449
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,840
some interesting stuff from the
presser.
450
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:51,120
I watched it and from the game
as well, but I'm going to sit
451
00:25:51,120 --> 00:25:52,680
back and relax for a few
minutes.
452
00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,000
Hey, Chris, right there with me.
I love that.
453
00:25:58,000 --> 00:25:59,800
What?
Up, guys.
454
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:00,920
All right.
Let Sheldon go.
455
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,240
Fire away.
All right, folks.
456
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:05,440
Well, the time has come to
start.
457
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:09,000
The Brent Pride discourse feels
like a recurring theme every
458
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,920
week that there's some type of
game or clock management issue.
459
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:15,560
And we saw more of that on
Saturday against Syracuse.
460
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,440
So in the wake of, you know,
obviously the discourse is
461
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:21,360
about, you know, not taking time
out, letting the defense,
462
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:23,760
letting the offense to Syracuse
run the clock out at the end of
463
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:27,840
the at the end of regulation,
you know, deciding to go defense
464
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:30,880
1st and overtime, you know,
people can have their opinions
465
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:33,680
one by the other.
But for me, there was there was
466
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:34,960
one thing in particular that
stick out.
467
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:40,160
And I think there was a
tremendous lack of clarity that
468
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:43,480
we had in price of, you know,
post game comments and his
469
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,680
comments in a press conference
afterwards today on Tuesday
470
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,160
about what his his thought
process was.
471
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:52,920
So first of all, Coach Pry, if
you're listening, if your
472
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:55,320
family's listening, I love you
brother, but I got to call you
473
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:57,440
out because there was some BS
that went on these past few
474
00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:01,360
days.
So to start off, you know, Pride
475
00:27:01,360 --> 00:27:03,680
decided not to take that time
out to prevent the runoff at the
476
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:05,320
end of the first half when Tech,
you know, potentially was
477
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:06,680
getting towards field goal
range.
478
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:10,240
After the game he said the
communication with the refs was
479
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:13,560
unclear, but appears that he
changed his story a couple
480
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:15,800
times.
So to the post game radio
481
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,320
people, he said he chose not to
take the time out to prevent the
482
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:20,560
runoff.
Why he did that, I don't know.
483
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:24,040
Maybe he's getting some bad
advice from someone in his ear.
484
00:27:24,360 --> 00:27:26,160
Possibly.
That seems like a likely
485
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:32,400
scenario, but after the game in
the in the official post game
486
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,880
press conference, he said he did
not trust the field goal unit
487
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:40,920
that had leaky protection in
order to be able to even bother
488
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:44,160
him to make a field goal.
Now why he would say that when
489
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,480
Jon Love has already hit
multiple 50 yards before in this
490
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:49,920
season, I do not know, but he
changed his story there so
491
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:53,440
that's one.
OK, so to me this looks like
492
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:55,040
he's covering for poor decision
making.
493
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,040
All right now regarding the poor
communication with the
494
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:00,360
officials, I think this is on
pry.
495
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:03,000
I know the official can
sometimes make mistakes and they
496
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:05,400
don't explain things concise in
the right way.
497
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,400
But if you as a head coach are
not getting in their ass and
498
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:11,280
demanding that they give you a a
reasonable explanation, you are
499
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:14,120
not doing your job.
I don't think pry, I don't think
500
00:28:14,120 --> 00:28:18,680
pry right now has the, the, the
acumen that we need of a head
501
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:21,960
coach to really get in their ass
and demand that they give him a
502
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,720
response.
Which it, it just seemed like to
503
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:26,760
me like he was content with
everything that happened.
504
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,200
He had a little conversation
that was nice and polite.
505
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:31,800
Maybe, you know, his, his
eyebrows got a little bit
506
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:35,200
furred, but he, he was not
responding to the level of
507
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:37,480
intensity that I think he needed
to as a head coach.
508
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:41,080
So we go now to the Tuesday
presser.
509
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,520
He said in the presser that
there was no clarity in the
510
00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,240
moments with regards to the
officials and their explanation.
511
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,200
But he also said he did not
submit that place to the
512
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:53,480
conference office for review.
Why would you not submit the
513
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:55,960
play for review if you didn't
get clarity?
514
00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:59,440
That does not make any sense.
If you weren't, if if you felt
515
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:00,960
the explanation was
insufficient, if you thought the
516
00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,760
refs made a mistake, maybe not
giving you the time Outback, why
517
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:07,920
would you not submit that play?
That to me screams that he's
518
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,040
just doing cover.
He's doing cover because he
519
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:13,320
knows he made a mistake and he
doesn't want to admit that he
520
00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:15,360
doesn't want people he wasn't.
He doesn't want to throw himself
521
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:17,200
under the bus or maybe the
people that are giving advice
522
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:21,040
under the bus.
And then lastly on this, he also
523
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,440
said today, quote, we have to be
the aggressor.
524
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:26,760
We have to be on the attack.
In that situation, then why
525
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,240
didn't you attack?
Why did you not go down field?
526
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,280
Why did you not take a time out
when Syracuse was on their last
527
00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:34,160
possession of regulation save
some time?
528
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,600
Why did you not go down the
field in that last drive with
529
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,400
Colin Schleade, 29 seconds left,
three timeouts.
530
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:40,680
Why were you not the aggressor
you needed?
531
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:43,200
40 yards.
You needed 40 yards.
532
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:45,000
Needed 40.
Yards got the boot.
533
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:47,400
Yep, and he was not the
aggressor.
534
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:51,760
So again, just a complete but
contradiction, a series of
535
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:54,640
contradictions statements that
didn't make sense.
536
00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:57,600
I think prize didn't cover.
I think he knows he made another
537
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,000
gaffe and he obviously doesn't
want to admit that to the fans,
538
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:02,200
which has been obviously
recurring theme.
539
00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:06,520
So just really disappointing
with how you know, he articulate
540
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:08,320
that to the fan base.
Again, I love your pride, but
541
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,360
that's just I just don't like
it, man.
542
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:12,560
I think it's, I think it's a bad
look.
543
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,320
Tally.
Man, it's hard to follow that,
544
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,360
but I needed it.
I mean, he made it sound elegant
545
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:25,520
to like he did a great job to
explain a lot of the stuff and
546
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:29,160
go through everything after the
game.
547
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:33,400
You know, that kind of we're
feeling and it's the team takes
548
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:35,360
the identity of the coach, you
know what I'm saying?
549
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:39,320
Like we coach too soft, we're
playing too soft at certain
550
00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:42,320
times.
It's the same thing.
551
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:46,080
It's a broken record.
Like if you were 50, if you were
552
00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:54,960
A500, you know, coach and A500
coach in, you know, close games,
553
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,720
then maybe I would ease up a
little bit.
554
00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:03,200
But you can't be like one in 12
or one in 11 and then you come
555
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:06,760
with the same coach speak like
it gets old, man.
556
00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:08,800
And again, like Sheldon said,
like I love Pride.
557
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,680
I think Pride's a good guy, you
know, I think he's a pretty
558
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:13,120
decent coach, you know what I'm
saying?
559
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:14,960
But sometimes coaches just don't
fit.
560
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:17,320
And again, I'm not saying that
I'm all out.
561
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:18,720
It's going to take some things
in.
562
00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:21,880
I know we'll discuss it a little
bit here in a minute.
563
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:27,040
But it takes some things to to
change to have to really see
564
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,000
change.
You know, and I think right now
565
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,280
we're just hearing the same the
same old stuff.
566
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:35,120
You know, this just well, we got
to get better.
567
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,400
Well, how do you get better?
You know what I'm saying?
568
00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:39,720
If you going to, I would rather
him walk in and say I ain't
569
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,280
fucking talking to nobody today.
I'm upset.
570
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:43,680
Find me.
The rest fucked us.
571
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:46,000
I don't want to have a
conversation with nobody.
572
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,160
Everybody get out.
I don't care if you come
573
00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:50,480
watching that.
Like I want you to just be mad
574
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,880
and get up, like change
everything that you're doing
575
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:58,280
because the nice polite, you
know, coaching and on the field,
576
00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:02,520
it's just it's old, man.
It's old and fans are tired of
577
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:09,040
watching the same stuff, you
know, blow leads, lose by three
578
00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:12,800
points, lose by 6 points, and
then we hear the same thing
579
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:14,520
afterwards.
The players are tired of losing.
580
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:16,440
You know, the players, they're
playing their butts off.
581
00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:18,840
I got to give them the, you
know, nobody, everybody knows
582
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:21,520
that this team doesn't quit, you
know what I'm saying?
583
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:26,200
Everybody understands that.
But that gets, you know, kudos.
584
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,320
Like you got to, you got to get
to a point where you're not
585
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:32,640
just, well, shoot, I know we
play Virginia Tech, man, we
586
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:35,800
going to be beat up, but we
going to win, you know what I'm
587
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:37,440
saying?
Like we're that team, the team
588
00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:39,520
that we think other people are.
That's who we are.
589
00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:42,800
However, Virginia Tech fans look
at a team like Georgia Tech.
590
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:45,600
Well, we know Georgia Tech is
going to give us a good game.
591
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:47,280
That's what people think about
us.
592
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:50,240
That's what we are.
That's that we that team.
593
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:54,720
When you go through at the
beginning of the season and
594
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:57,480
you're looking at where you
going to get your wins and
595
00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:01,600
losses, people's looking at Vt
and saying that's a dub easy.
596
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,520
No matter what we play them at,
if we play them at they house,
597
00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:07,600
if we play them at our house,
that's on coaching.
598
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:10,480
You got to change some stuff and
it don't take.
599
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,520
Oh well, Beamer did it, man.
Stop saying that he ain't
600
00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:16,280
Beamer.
Stop saying Beamer did it in
601
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:18,000
this many years and this coach
did.
602
00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:21,200
It is coaches that are taking
over programs and winning in the
603
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:23,880
first year.
Elko did it at Duke.
604
00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:27,160
Manny Diaz is that Duke?
He's doing the same thing.
605
00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:29,440
And I bet Duke wasn't in a
better position.
606
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:31,680
I mean in a worse position than
Virginia Tech was.
607
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:36,200
It's about the same.
I'm just saying that we can pick
608
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,680
other, we can pick other schools
to talk about.
609
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:40,840
It's just it gets redundant,
man.
610
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:47,040
And it's so frustrating that you
watch these kids go out and you
611
00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:49,600
even watch the coaches do some
stuff that works.
612
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,800
The coaches will do something
that works and it's like it
613
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,280
surprises them.
They'll do something and it
614
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:57,880
works and they go shit, we going
to do that again.
615
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,520
You never go back to it.
You know what I'm saying?
616
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:05,480
It's just, again, I know it's
inexperience at coaching, but
617
00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:07,880
now you have to have some kind
of experience.
618
00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:12,199
Like I did some stupid shit when
I first got with my wife, right?
619
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:18,120
Like walk in from work, take
your shoes off, kick them to the
620
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,560
side, go straight to the
bathroom.
621
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:24,440
In your mind, you just thinking,
I've been at work all day, I got
622
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,560
to go use the bathroom.
But your wife is standing there
623
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:32,199
like you walked in the house and
you didn't even say hey honey or
624
00:34:32,199 --> 00:34:35,480
I'm home or nothing.
I'm telling you you're only
625
00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:38,400
going to do it once or twice
before it becomes a problem.
626
00:34:39,159 --> 00:34:42,280
Well, coach Pride, you keep
walking in the house and you
627
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:45,400
don't say that I'm home and we
getting tired of it.
628
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:47,199
I'm going to stop right there
for now.
629
00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:51,400
Brian, what you think, man?
You know what that was?
630
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:52,800
That was gold.
I like that.
631
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:56,280
Like Sheldon and Tally have like
completely set the stage for me
632
00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:58,400
here.
And I think what it comes down
633
00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:00,840
for is something that Tally kind
of talked about but didn't maybe
634
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:04,760
say directly, is that a lot of
times it feels like these
635
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,720
coaches are playing not to lose
the game.
636
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,760
That's what it feels like.
We're playing not to lose the
637
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,920
game.
And when you play not to lose,
638
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:16,760
sometimes it's going to bite you
in the ass.
639
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:20,600
And we've seen that anytime it
gets close, that's when we
640
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,640
falter because we played not to
lose.
641
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:26,240
When we look at the defensive
side of the ball, these late
642
00:35:26,240 --> 00:35:29,960
half, whether it's first half or
second-half collapses got to
643
00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:32,840
stop.
When we look at the offensive
644
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:37,160
side of the ball, when you get a
lead stomp on some throats, we
645
00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:40,800
don't do that.
It's it's like we we think that
646
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:43,320
18 is enough.
And we go out there and we just
647
00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:46,440
kind of, you know, put it out
there and all of a sudden, you
648
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:49,240
know, you get one mistake here,
one mistake there and now it's a
649
00:35:49,240 --> 00:35:51,280
game again.
And now you, you know, you got a
650
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:53,280
tight asshole because it's a
game again.
651
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:57,680
And now you don't know what to
do and now you're in in React
652
00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:00,560
mode.
And we don't do well in React
653
00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:02,520
mode.
We play well when we play loose
654
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:05,200
and confident.
Anybody that's watched this team
655
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:07,720
knows that.
And we're not doing that
656
00:36:07,720 --> 00:36:10,280
consistently enough against
these opponents.
657
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:14,720
So that's that's all I got.
From what Brian said, man, I'm,
658
00:36:14,720 --> 00:36:16,320
I'm going to go back on that as
well.
659
00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:18,720
And what he said, you know what
he's talking about.
660
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:22,920
Shoot, there was a lot that you
just threw it now and I kind of
661
00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:26,000
lost my trace that that kind of
threw me off a little bit.
662
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:31,960
We, we, you said that and then
Andrey pops up and he puts, puts
663
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:34,840
a, a, a comment up there for me
to see.
664
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:37,080
But I'm thinking about, you
know, what Brian says and he
665
00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:40,640
says, you know, when we play, we
play better when we play loose.
666
00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:43,640
And again, I know we're going to
get into some more stuff.
667
00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:48,160
People were talking in the game,
you know, and I know football,
668
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:50,000
you know, I get it.
I know sports.
669
00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:53,520
But like, my son had his first
basketball game today.
670
00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,520
Thank the Lord, very, very
thankful he's back on the court.
671
00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:59,360
You know, he went through a
whole game very he was rusty
672
00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:03,360
because he got injured playing
basketball and he was a little
673
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:05,400
rusty, but he had a great game.
You know, he went in, he
674
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:08,160
competed and they won.
So great job by them.
675
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:11,560
But they have a legendary coach
that coaches his, his varsity
676
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:13,800
basketball team.
My son plays on the freshman
677
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:17,720
team and Coach Doss is his name,
Jack Doss.
678
00:37:17,720 --> 00:37:19,520
You can look him up in
Huntsville, AL.
679
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:25,520
He's won, I think 12 state
championships at four different
680
00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:31,040
schools.
But Coach Doss probably is about
681
00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:34,240
70 and he he coaches like he's
70.
682
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:38,840
He he plays stall ball when he
gets up in the lead.
683
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:42,280
If he gets up on a team that he
thinks that he's not supposed to
684
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:46,160
get up on, if he's playing a
team that's more talented than
685
00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:49,760
he is and he gets up on that
team, he is going to hold a
686
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:50,880
ball.
He's going to try.
687
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:56,680
If he's up 20 to 18, he'll try
to hold a ball and guess what
688
00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:58,000
happens?
You want to know what happened,
689
00:37:58,000 --> 00:37:59,920
Brian?
They steal the ball, they go
690
00:37:59,920 --> 00:38:02,360
score, then they continue
scoring and then now we're
691
00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:05,560
trying to play catch up.
I feel like our staff does the
692
00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:08,800
same thing.
Pryor is a traditional coach
693
00:38:09,240 --> 00:38:12,600
with a school that has
traditions.
694
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:16,840
We're not a traditional school.
We don't do the things good that
695
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:19,240
Penn State or Alabama does.
What?
696
00:38:19,240 --> 00:38:23,360
We just have five star backs
that run the ball well or they
697
00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:28,000
have a line that always send
people like it's different for
698
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:29,640
us.
You know, we do have some things
699
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:33,760
that were known for, but we
don't have a tradition that is
700
00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:38,480
going to win US games.
So my thing is when you look at
701
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:43,040
how we play Georgia Tech, I bet
Price hard on was about that
702
00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:44,840
long.
Like that's the kind of game
703
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:47,640
that he wants.
He wants to go out and play
704
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:50,640
defense and get 3 and outs.
And he don't care if we move the
705
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:55,320
ball and we just continue
stopping them and they kick it
706
00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:59,360
back to us and we waste a little
clock and then we win 2621 to
707
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:02,920
six, you know, have some kind of
special play and get up.
708
00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:05,200
And then we just we can't do
that.
709
00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:08,600
You have to continue scoring.
You have to continue.
710
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:10,360
If they're going to give you
points, take them.
711
00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:14,640
I don't think that.
I don't think that Syracuse
712
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:18,640
could have stopped, could have
stopped our passing, the
713
00:39:18,720 --> 00:39:21,880
offense.
They still ain't stopped Steven
714
00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:23,240
Gosdale.
But guess what?
715
00:39:23,240 --> 00:39:27,560
We started doing some different
shit to get away from what we
716
00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:30,040
need to do to win the game.
And then that happens.
717
00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:32,240
We have a collapse.
Tired of it, man.
718
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,000
Curtis, I know you got some
stuff to say, man.
719
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:36,960
I ain't mean to cut you off.
Well, AI missed your ran
720
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:38,480
unfortunately because.
That's all right.
721
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:40,640
I got life.
I know you got more, but I
722
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:44,920
wanted to hear that first one,
unfortunately, but it's it's
723
00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:47,920
when it's the same shit
different day.
724
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:49,160
That's what starts irritating
you.
725
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:52,120
If we were if we had lost four
games 4 completely different
726
00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:56,200
ways this year, I think we'd be
sending we still be mad, right?
727
00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:59,200
We'd still be mad, but we
wouldn't be having this
728
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,280
conversation.
Oh, Miami blew us out.
729
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:04,000
We blew a lead.
Oh, they got up on us.
730
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:07,560
We tried to fight back.
But it's now the same narrative
731
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:10,800
over and over.
And I told Tally this week,
732
00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:16,760
y'all the four games we lost
this year, we had a lead in
733
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:18,480
Vanderbilt at the end of the
game.
734
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:22,680
We tied Rutgers at the end of
the game.
735
00:40:22,720 --> 00:40:24,160
They drove and kicked a field
goal.
736
00:40:24,720 --> 00:40:28,640
We had a 10 point lead on Miami
and obviously we had an 18 point
737
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:31,880
lead, which we all get upset
about, but we had a 7 point lead
738
00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:35,600
with four seconds to go.
We had a it's the same narrative
739
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:39,720
and y'all keep talking about the
shell on offense and we don't go
740
00:40:39,720 --> 00:40:42,440
to things.
The defense just seems like it's
741
00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:44,440
scared.
Oh, we're going to have to do
742
00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:47,720
this.
Let's it's OK if we give up a
743
00:40:47,720 --> 00:40:49,800
touchdown.
No, it's not You can't.
744
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:53,040
So we're seeing the same things
on the defensive side of the
745
00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:56,480
ball over and over because if
the defense, y'all just think
746
00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:58,640
about this just two holes.
We hold the ball.
747
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:04,960
We hold 2 times this year, 2
times we're seven and two we
748
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:08,600
hold 2 times.
That's not saying we could be
749
00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:11,040
better.
I like what James just put up
750
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:15,960
here because I saw that as well.
We are 8 O and one if games
751
00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:19,560
ended at the 8th minute. 8 O and
1:00.
752
00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:23,720
Pitiful.
If you really, if you really
753
00:41:23,720 --> 00:41:26,040
want to be mad, Curtis, if you
really want to feel some type of
754
00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:30,480
way, go and look at the last
three years.
755
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:36,400
That's what I need you to do.
So what I was saying is we, we
756
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:39,960
get into those situations, it's
the same thing at the end of
757
00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:44,120
every game, it's the same thing.
And then you're sitting here and
758
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:46,160
it's like, do something
different.
759
00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:50,400
Now he is who he is, but the
whole thing that happens and
760
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:52,720
it's all of them.
I don't care who you are, what
761
00:41:52,720 --> 00:41:56,760
field of protection you're in,
you listen to people you you
762
00:41:56,880 --> 00:42:01,040
take and that's usually how you
make your decisions, whether it
763
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:06,080
be Tally doing marketing myself
doing what I do in my company
764
00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:08,960
with learning and development,
Brian, what he does and Dan Alex
765
00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:11,200
and tell them what he does.
You listen to people, right?
766
00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:14,640
You listen to ice, you listen to
what they are supposed to do.
767
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:18,040
Apparently there's somebody in
the box, a coach on the staff in
768
00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:21,040
the box that has the book of
what you're supposed to do in
769
00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:25,160
these situations.
Now, I don't know if they are
770
00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:30,080
telling our head coach of
exactly what they should be
771
00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:35,360
doing because to what Shelton
said earlier, in that situation,
772
00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:38,880
here's what should happen.
My phone needs to shut up.
773
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:43,920
So why is it the same things?
What I would say is if you're
774
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:47,440
fucking up the same shit the
same way every time, then
775
00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:50,280
somebody is telling you wrong.
Somebody is not getting you
776
00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,520
ready.
It's eventually falls on you.
777
00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:56,000
But like all of us, like every
single person in this chat over
778
00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:59,320
here, in this chat over here,
there's people that influence
779
00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:00,880
them.
Callie, you talk about your
780
00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:03,280
wife.
I bet you didn't kick off the
781
00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:05,920
shoes and walk to the bathroom
no more after that surgery.
782
00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:07,160
You'd be like, hey, honey, how
are you?
783
00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:08,280
You have a good day.
I love you.
784
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:14,040
So it's still on him to change.
It's still on him to be better.
785
00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:18,720
But the whole thing it comes to
is who's around you.
786
00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:25,600
I like what Andrady said there.
It's not a tack because at the
787
00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:30,400
end of that game and even the
second-half, I know y'all, we
788
00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:32,440
missed tackles.
We weren't we, we played a
789
00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:35,440
little over aggressive and then
some mad shit happened.
790
00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:37,280
What happened?
We went super under aggressive
791
00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:41,400
and you can't do that.
You cannot be in the moment.
792
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:46,080
You have to be who you are.
So I know we got a lot more and
793
00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:48,920
we're going to keep going.
But I'm going to say this and I
794
00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:51,960
want, I want to see what people
think out there because I think
795
00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:54,240
he's back as a coach next year.
I do.
796
00:43:54,560 --> 00:43:56,280
Charlie, he's back.
He's 100.
797
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:57,560
He's back.
Yeah.
798
00:43:57,560 --> 00:43:59,640
I mean, regardless of how we
feel, I don't think there's a
799
00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:01,920
way we he's.
Not yeah, Yeah, he's back.
800
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:04,800
He can lose.
He can lose all the last three
801
00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:06,240
games and he's not going
anywhere.
802
00:44:06,240 --> 00:44:09,440
They're going to give him
another year or two years.
803
00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:16,400
He can lose the last three games
and not make a bowl game and
804
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:20,640
he's still going to be a coach
next year. 100% yeah.
805
00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:25,160
But what it usually is at that
point in time, what happens is
806
00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:29,520
like what I'm kind of leading
into here is currently this
807
00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:34,360
coaching staff and the analytics
people and everybody made-up of
808
00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:36,960
it on and off the field is
construction.
809
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:41,040
It cannot stay this way because
you cannot keep doing the wrong
810
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:43,960
things.
And So what I want to pivot to
811
00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:49,880
y'all, and I don't care how many
it is, it can be 0 or you can
812
00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:51,120
say the whole staff can come
back.
813
00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:52,440
I don't think it's going to look
the same.
814
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:58,360
But tell me, Shelton Moss, who
is safe on the staff right now?
815
00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:04,080
Who is safe?
Well, definitely Tyler Bowen, I
816
00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:05,000
mean.
OK.
817
00:45:05,720 --> 00:45:08,000
I think he's been, I think he's
been in his bag, not just, you
818
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:10,840
know, last week, but you know,
throughout the majority of this
819
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:13,120
year.
Like you go into Syracuse on the
820
00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:16,880
road, score 31 points, put above
over 400 yards of offense in the
821
00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:21,400
back of QB and a running back.
You know, we're top 30 ish in SP
822
00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:23,800
plus, which was above our
preseason expectations.
823
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:27,080
So they've overperformed there.
I think he's done a good job.
824
00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:29,200
I I know it's, you know, hadn't
been because it's in every game,
825
00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:31,440
but you know, part of that is
just working with players that
826
00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:33,440
have limitations and trying to,
you know, get guys more
827
00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:36,360
experience and develop them.
And I think he's been fantastic.
828
00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:38,800
I know you know, people are
always going to hate the OST
829
00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:41,800
man, but it's a tough job.
You you never you always get the
830
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:43,760
blame when things go wrong.
You never get credit when things
831
00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:45,000
go right.
I think he's done a great job.
832
00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:47,480
So I'm a big, I'm a big bone
advocate right now all.
833
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:49,440
Right, who else?
Give me a couple.
834
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:51,480
Give me give me your lift of
absolutely saves.
835
00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:57,080
Brooks done a good job with the
running back room and I think
836
00:45:57,080 --> 00:45:59,760
Crook for the most part the
online has gotten better.
837
00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:02,000
The younger players I think have
have developed pretty well.
838
00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:03,280
So I've I've definitely keep
them.
839
00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:11,360
That's your 3.
Yeah, but the quarterbacks coach
840
00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:15,120
forget the name.
Derek Jones.
841
00:46:15,720 --> 00:46:19,360
Yeah, yeah, yeah, he's, I know
some of the recruiting returns
842
00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:21,080
haven't been great, but he's
done a pretty good job
843
00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:22,920
developing that room.
Dante, let it looks great.
844
00:46:23,240 --> 00:46:25,320
I don't think you would want to
risk, you know, letting a guy
845
00:46:25,320 --> 00:46:27,520
like that go.
So I'd I'd keep him as well.
846
00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:30,440
OK.
And JC.
847
00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:34,760
And JC, anybody else, Sheldon,
the next thing you don't know,
848
00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:36,520
you're going to say we got to
keep the whole staff together,
849
00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:38,560
which we can all fly off at you
and say no to.
850
00:46:38,560 --> 00:46:40,600
If we can't keep the whole staff
together, we're five and four,
851
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:42,920
not 9 and O it's.
Going to happen.
852
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:44,880
They ain't, they ain't going.
Over there, people, the people I
853
00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:47,480
didn't mention, you can, you
know, they can make some
854
00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:49,680
decisions after this season, all
right.
855
00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:54,160
Tally.
What's the what's my?
856
00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:57,320
What's my question?
Who is safe on the staff?
857
00:46:57,320 --> 00:46:58,640
Who is?
Absolutely.
858
00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:01,720
If you were selling in his ear,
you ain't firing him because you
859
00:47:01,720 --> 00:47:05,800
lose your damn mind.
So if I'm looking at the real
860
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:10,120
answer, everybody's safe because
I don't think that our football
861
00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:14,760
program has the nuts to get rid
of anybody.
862
00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:17,160
You know, I don't think that
anybody.
863
00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:21,160
I think pride's too nice.
He had a lot of friends.
864
00:47:21,720 --> 00:47:23,720
I don't think he won't he will
let anybody go.
865
00:47:23,960 --> 00:47:28,600
But if I'm looking at who I
would be safe, if I'm in charge,
866
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:31,960
if you're in charge, if you're
the I'm in charge, I would say,
867
00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:37,960
you know, probably JC Price, you
know, I've seen some good stuff
868
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:40,400
in him.
He's got a guy on his line that
869
00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:44,160
has 12 sacks, you know, probably
would say he's safe.
870
00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:50,360
He's a through and through a
hokey man.
871
00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:54,120
Shit.
I mean, Brooks, Brooks has done
872
00:47:54,120 --> 00:48:00,600
a good job.
Like like, Shelton said, Dude,
873
00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:05,440
this, I just feel like you, it's
up in the air for everybody
874
00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:11,720
else, it's up in the air, man.
Like JC Brooks has been fine.
875
00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:15,400
I know, Shelton said.
Crook, you know I ain't.
876
00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:18,040
I'm going to leave it alone for
right now till we talk about
877
00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:23,760
other stuff, but yeah, I'm just
Mines, Coach Mines.
878
00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:26,960
Coach Mines is safe, and the
reason I say Coach Mines is safe
879
00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:29,200
is because of how he's
recruited.
880
00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:33,520
But when we start to get into
other stuff, the main thing with
881
00:48:33,520 --> 00:48:38,560
me to why it's so hard for me to
say who's safe and who's not is
882
00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:41,880
because I feel like part of
coaching is who you put in the
883
00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:44,040
game.
You know what I'm saying?
884
00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:47,520
You have to coach your
personnel.
885
00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:52,040
It's cool to get receivers, but
I'm watching other four-star
886
00:48:52,040 --> 00:48:54,880
recruits and three star recruits
get on the field at other
887
00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:59,560
schools.
Why not put somebody in and try,
888
00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:04,240
you know, why not let me run
somebody on the field to see
889
00:49:04,240 --> 00:49:08,880
what they do?
Hey receiver, you're fast.
890
00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:12,440
I need you to go run a go route
because these guys apparently
891
00:49:12,720 --> 00:49:14,280
are not going to catch a go
route.
892
00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:16,800
They either aren't getting the
separation or they're not going
893
00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:18,920
to die for it.
So I just need you to go in
894
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:20,800
there with fresh legs and just
run.
895
00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:24,240
Just run as fast as you can and
try to catch this ball.
896
00:49:24,240 --> 00:49:26,000
That's what I need.
Let's see what happens.
897
00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:32,560
So I'm done.
Mines Price Brooks.
898
00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:35,040
Brooks, that's all.
That's the only people safe,
899
00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:36,880
although Tally says everybody's
safe.
900
00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:39,240
But then it's up in the air, but
nobody's safe.
901
00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:44,120
Tally doing philosophical crazy
he she's got bullshit.
902
00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:45,720
I'm gonna have to put the mask
back on, man.
903
00:49:45,720 --> 00:49:47,760
No.
You got No, we got to let you go
904
00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:51,880
tell you got any.
Chess going on here. 40 maybe
905
00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:53,800
5D.
Brian Who's who's safe?
906
00:49:53,840 --> 00:49:56,560
A lot of DS man.
There's a lot of DS.
907
00:49:57,160 --> 00:50:03,840
Hey, I, I, I've got five names.
It's JC Price, it's Fontell,
908
00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:07,920
it's Coach Brooks, it's Cheetah
and it's Bowen.
909
00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:16,320
They are safe at this point.
To me, Price, I think speaks for
910
00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:19,520
itself.
I think the the the play of his
911
00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:23,240
unit and how he's recruited in
the last couple cycles speaks
912
00:50:23,240 --> 00:50:26,080
for itself.
I think the output that we're
913
00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:29,280
seeing from a developmental
standpoint and from a recruiting
914
00:50:29,280 --> 00:50:31,480
standpoint from Brooks speaks
for itself.
915
00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:37,320
I think we look at Fontell, he's
shown the capability of bringing
916
00:50:37,320 --> 00:50:43,080
in guys.
And when we look at Cheetah, I
917
00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:46,640
think we're seeing, again, very,
very good developmental
918
00:50:46,680 --> 00:50:50,440
cornerbacks.
Coach hasn't really seen an
919
00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:54,160
elite recruit, but also has done
a really good job of developing
920
00:50:54,160 --> 00:50:57,840
the guys that he's brought in
kind of in that high three star,
921
00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:02,280
you know, low 4 area there.
And to Sheldon's point, I think
922
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:07,000
Bowen, the biggest complaint I
have about Bowen is kind of what
923
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:11,520
we've already talked about is
when, when the chips are down,
924
00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:16,640
when when we start getting into
those moments where we can stomp
925
00:51:16,640 --> 00:51:20,320
on a, on a, on a throat.
We don't always do that.
926
00:51:21,840 --> 00:51:23,320
That's my biggest complaint
about him.
927
00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:26,440
I think he's done a good job of
kind of adapting to his
928
00:51:26,440 --> 00:51:31,080
personnel as a play caller and
getting points on the board has
929
00:51:31,080 --> 00:51:33,640
been pretty good.
So I've got no no big qualms
930
00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:38,640
with him, but also I'll I'll
pivot on on Tally's point a
931
00:51:38,640 --> 00:51:41,160
little bit here too.
As far as you know, the young
932
00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:45,160
guys playing.
I think we see this staff has
933
00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:48,200
been in all three years
conservative.
934
00:51:48,320 --> 00:51:52,760
I think especially early in the
year of getting young guys on
935
00:51:52,760 --> 00:51:58,880
the field in situations where
they don't have to, right, Like
936
00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:01,560
when when you've got a veteran
at a position.
937
00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:08,320
Now when we look at cornerback
and safety, we've had situations
938
00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:11,560
where we've had to get guys on
the field early for obvious
939
00:52:11,560 --> 00:52:13,040
reasons.
And those are death, death
940
00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:14,960
related.
But when we look at some of
941
00:52:14,960 --> 00:52:17,480
these other positions, we've
been a little bit hesitant to
942
00:52:17,560 --> 00:52:21,880
get the younger guy, younger
player on the field when we've
943
00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:25,440
had the opportunity just because
we do have a little more veteran
944
00:52:25,680 --> 00:52:27,400
leadership in that particular
room.
945
00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:29,600
I'm hoping that changes a little
bit.
946
00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:33,880
I hope when we mix things up as
we kind of move into the last
947
00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:37,040
three games of the season here,
because at this point, most of
948
00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:39,560
these guys have games they can
still burn.
949
00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:43,040
Let's get them some run,
especially now that we're out of
950
00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:47,000
contention for Charlotte.
Put them out there and let let's
951
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:51,200
see what they can do.
All right, so there we go.
952
00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:57,040
So you are JC Brooks Cheetah
Bone, right?
953
00:52:57,920 --> 00:53:00,960
JC Mines Brooks.
Cheetah, you said mines OK
954
00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:03,520
awesome.
I got four and these are the
955
00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:06,200
only four safe in my opinion.
JC is definitely safe.
956
00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:10,680
The defensive line eats.
You see those guys playing a
957
00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:14,120
high level, older, younger all
across the board.
958
00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:17,400
Fontelle clearly safe.
The recruiting proudness is
959
00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:20,120
there.
I'm going to throw a curveball
960
00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:23,320
because this is one y'all have
not mentioned, but he is a stud
961
00:53:23,320 --> 00:53:27,680
recruiter and I got called out a
couple weeks ago by somebody not
962
00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:29,360
realizing it.
Sean Quinn.
963
00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:32,520
Sean Quinn's not going anywhere.
Sean Quinn recruited Chance
964
00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:35,400
Wiggins, he recruited Christian
Evans, he recruited Aiden, he
965
00:53:35,400 --> 00:53:37,720
recruited Aiden Stevens, he
recruited Overton.
966
00:53:37,720 --> 00:53:41,440
He's Woodson's primary.
Think about that right there.
967
00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:44,160
Think about all those names.
How many of those guys are on
968
00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:45,920
the field doing something
already?
969
00:53:46,400 --> 00:53:49,440
Just about all of them.
And Jeff Overton is, as per
970
00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:51,840
tally, probably the most
underrated running back in the
971
00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:53,320
entire country.
Yeah.
972
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:59,400
Give me also Elijah Brooks.
Nobody else is safe.
973
00:53:59,880 --> 00:54:03,440
Those guys are safe because I've
seen development from their
974
00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:05,960
positions.
I'll suppose all Sean Quinn take
975
00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:09,080
a risk with Caleb Spencer early
in the year and you know, he had
976
00:54:09,080 --> 00:54:15,160
to go to the table to pry and
say I need Caleb to play and how
977
00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:19,280
much better that room has gotten
between Keanta and Caleb
978
00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:21,760
Spencer.
So that's my four.
979
00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:25,640
If we if we take a look at all
of ours, JC is the safest.
980
00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:29,000
Brooks is pretty safe.
Then we have our missus here and
981
00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:30,640
there.
We got Fontell pretty safe.
982
00:54:31,400 --> 00:54:33,840
But that's the thing we start
seeing.
983
00:54:33,840 --> 00:54:35,960
We don't know what goes on
behind the scenes because
984
00:54:35,960 --> 00:54:39,920
apparently whoever's up in the
booth that does the plays, what
985
00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:42,320
if that's somebody we listed?
What if that's the person that's
986
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:44,680
supposed to be feeding in the
two minutes, hey, when to call
987
00:54:44,680 --> 00:54:46,240
the timeout and they're fucking
up.
988
00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:48,520
You could love them.
Be like, I love him.
989
00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:51,440
He does all this good stuff and
he's realized, oh, he's the guy
990
00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:53,880
that so still coach want to call
timeouts and he ain't doing his
991
00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:56,200
job right.
How would you feel about that?
992
00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:59,520
What if I know Fantail's on the
sidelines, but we love Fantail.
993
00:54:59,520 --> 00:55:02,640
But what if that was Fantail's
job and he was screwing up
994
00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:05,120
getting in the timeouts?
Would we love him more or would
995
00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:09,080
be like, wait a second, you can
recruit, but are you, are you
996
00:55:09,080 --> 00:55:11,040
not telling them when they call
the timeouts right?
997
00:55:11,640 --> 00:55:16,960
And that's your job.
You turn into a big boy football
998
00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:21,640
organization and you get people
and designate certain jobs to
999
00:55:21,640 --> 00:55:23,320
them.
If you ain't doing a good job of
1000
00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:26,120
telling people when to call the
time out, then you shouldn't be,
1001
00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:30,200
you shouldn't be doing that.
If you're good at recruiting as
1002
00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:32,680
a recruiter, I don't know.
It's just different things that
1003
00:55:32,680 --> 00:55:34,720
you can do.
Another thing I was going to say
1004
00:55:34,720 --> 00:55:39,680
too, a lot of people were, I
think everybody on here besides
1005
00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:42,480
me would say, you know, Bowen's
doing a good job.
1006
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:48,320
He is, you know, kind of safe.
And I'm just asking the
1007
00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:51,360
question, who calls the plays?
Does he call the plays?
1008
00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:53,800
He sends the plays in.
He is the play caller.
1009
00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:57,400
Why the fuck would you send a
play in for a quarterback that
1010
00:55:57,400 --> 00:56:03,440
has a bum leg to run the ball?
And you did it in two games.
1011
00:56:04,240 --> 00:56:06,680
You did it in Vanderbilt when
Kyron was cramping up.
1012
00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:09,560
Y'all, he had to come off the
field.
1013
00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:14,120
Then you put him back in and you
do a running play that your two
1014
00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:18,480
backup quarterbacks could have
did, and then you push Lee in
1015
00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:22,600
and he's got to bum ankle and
you call a run and play.
1016
00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:25,000
Why not just let Pop Watson run
it?
1017
00:56:25,600 --> 00:56:28,480
I don't know, man.
I don't feel like he's safe.
1018
00:56:28,920 --> 00:56:32,320
I don't the reason I don't think
he's safe and and I Shelton, I
1019
00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:34,080
know you're looking at the
statistics and that the
1020
00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:39,520
percentage is there are times he
is effectively the guy playing
1021
00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:42,040
craps.
Either he's hitting and it's
1022
00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:44,920
rolling or he's rolling snake
eyes every time and just busting
1023
00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:47,480
the board up.
Because there are times in the
1024
00:56:47,480 --> 00:56:52,000
game where it's like we need a
big drive and nothing happens.
1025
00:56:52,560 --> 00:56:56,440
And now I know that's some
execution that summoned him, but
1026
00:56:56,440 --> 00:56:59,000
it's still ultimately going to
fall on the coach.
1027
00:56:59,480 --> 00:57:02,360
And that's my bigger issue with
him because when he's rolling,
1028
00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:07,280
when he's rolling like he was,
go back to BC in that first half
1029
00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:10,840
where everything was hidden,
Kyron was nailing the passes,
1030
00:57:10,880 --> 00:57:13,400
perfect run blocks, lane seal
for Duden.
1031
00:57:13,640 --> 00:57:16,120
That's great.
But that third quarter happened,
1032
00:57:16,120 --> 00:57:19,200
if we don't recall, where we
couldn't do a fucking thing,
1033
00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:22,760
remember that we couldn't do a
thing, and they got back in the
1034
00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:25,440
game.
Well, we also kept him.
1035
00:57:25,520 --> 00:57:27,040
We also kept giving them the
ball.
1036
00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:28,800
We did.
And we?
1037
00:57:28,880 --> 00:57:32,880
Turned off as a coach, but the
whole piece is we go, he goes
1038
00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:36,040
hot and cold and I'm going to
tell you when it's cold is scary
1039
00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:39,840
because you're like we can't
even get 10 yards.
1040
00:57:40,320 --> 00:57:44,440
We can't even get a first down.
That's why I'm I'm more.
1041
00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:48,680
Do you completely fire him?
I don't know, but there's
1042
00:57:48,680 --> 00:57:51,440
obviously things like that.
What else y'all got on this
1043
00:57:51,440 --> 00:57:53,240
subject?
Anybody?
1044
00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:58,240
Nothing.
No, not really, Sheldon.
1045
00:57:58,520 --> 00:57:59,840
You look like he was gonna say
something.
1046
00:58:00,040 --> 00:58:00,600
He did.
Yeah.
1047
00:58:00,640 --> 00:58:03,400
I would say the one thing that
makes this analysis tricky for
1048
00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:06,920
me is the fact that I feel like
the team this year has first of
1049
00:58:06,920 --> 00:58:09,240
all, they definitely prove him
last year qualitatively.
1050
00:58:09,720 --> 00:58:12,320
And I think for the most part,
they've played good football in
1051
00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:15,280
terms of just, you know, being
efficient and, you know, look,
1052
00:58:15,280 --> 00:58:17,520
they're they're top 30 in most
of the metrics.
1053
00:58:17,520 --> 00:58:19,200
You know, they're they're top
three and point differential.
1054
00:58:19,200 --> 00:58:22,480
Like if you're just looking at
the play on the field, they've
1055
00:58:22,480 --> 00:58:24,680
been a good team for the most
part.
1056
00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:29,280
It's just the the complete
inability to manage the game is
1057
00:58:29,280 --> 00:58:30,600
the reason they're five and
four.
1058
00:58:30,880 --> 00:58:34,160
And that falls on not the
assistant coaches, but one
1059
00:58:34,160 --> 00:58:35,320
person.
And I think we.
1060
00:58:35,520 --> 00:58:38,040
And that's, and that's where I'm
at, you know, like I'm going
1061
00:58:38,040 --> 00:58:40,360
through this because that's what
we are here to do.
1062
00:58:40,720 --> 00:58:45,760
But none of it matters if the
head man ain't right like
1063
00:58:46,240 --> 00:58:50,240
Sheldon, great job, man.
I mean, he shit, he summed up
1064
00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:54,240
kind of everything that I feel
is because you can get rid of
1065
00:58:54,240 --> 00:58:55,760
this.
So you can do that and you can
1066
00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:58,040
do this, but it's the head
coach.
1067
00:58:58,320 --> 00:59:01,480
Like I can be mad at Tyler Bowen
for things he's doing with the
1068
00:59:01,480 --> 00:59:03,960
offense.
But if you know, the head coach
1069
00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:09,920
is saying we're up 21 to three,
do not run any passing plays.
1070
00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:12,120
I don't know what that I don't
know what they're telling him,
1071
00:59:12,440 --> 00:59:15,800
but I know that.
I know we have a head coach that
1072
00:59:16,520 --> 00:59:22,880
runs the program and he's like
one in 11 or one in 12 in one
1073
00:59:22,880 --> 00:59:27,360
score games.
I need that to change so.
1074
00:59:29,640 --> 00:59:32,920
All right, well, I'm, I'm gonna
flip it because again, it all is
1075
00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:38,040
on the head coach.
But again, you know, that's why
1076
00:59:38,040 --> 00:59:39,800
I keep saying it.
None of us.
1077
00:59:40,600 --> 00:59:43,080
What is, what's the old, what's
the old island saying, Brian?
1078
00:59:43,400 --> 00:59:44,440
Well, you can't.
You can't.
1079
00:59:44,800 --> 00:59:46,240
Do no man is an island to
himself?
1080
00:59:46,560 --> 00:59:49,240
Well, I was thinking more, you
can't do the same thing over and
1081
00:59:49,240 --> 00:59:52,640
over and expecting the results.
So I mean, if it's not working,
1082
00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:55,880
you got to do something.
So that's kind of that's the
1083
00:59:55,880 --> 01:00:00,520
point of the exercise, right?
Like whether that's focused on
1084
01:00:00,680 --> 01:00:03,440
make trying to make the head
coach better or whether that's
1085
01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:06,800
bringing in some guys around the
head coach to make him better.
1086
01:00:06,800 --> 01:00:10,320
But to Shelton's point.
It's only going to get so good
1087
01:00:10,800 --> 01:00:14,200
to a point where at some point
you've got to get better at
1088
01:00:14,200 --> 01:00:16,120
manage of the game because if
you're not managing the game
1089
01:00:16,120 --> 01:00:19,560
well, you're going to keep
consistently losing these tight
1090
01:00:19,560 --> 01:00:21,200
games.
That's true.
1091
01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:25,320
That's when those little things
that a coach does matters the
1092
01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:27,960
most.
You can, you can have a a fuck
1093
01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:31,560
up or two as a head coach when
you're winning by 18 and you
1094
01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:34,120
keep winning by 18.
But when you when that 18
1095
01:00:34,120 --> 01:00:38,640
shrinks down to three or four or
seven, now all those little,
1096
01:00:38,640 --> 01:00:41,800
little things that you're doing,
those little, little wrinkles
1097
01:00:41,800 --> 01:00:45,800
here or there where you don't
use a timeout or you don't put
1098
01:00:45,800 --> 01:00:49,120
your foot on the gas when you
need to, that's going to add up.
1099
01:00:50,520 --> 01:00:51,800
True.
All right.
1100
01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:55,840
Is there you, you got to tell
again, a part of this exercise
1101
01:00:55,840 --> 01:00:57,680
too is you're you're the
advisor.
1102
01:00:57,840 --> 01:00:59,240
You're the advisor to Coach
Prop.
1103
01:00:59,480 --> 01:01:02,400
Whether you say get rid of him
or we're going to give him
1104
01:01:02,400 --> 01:01:06,040
another chance, who's the
person?
1105
01:01:06,080 --> 01:01:08,040
I don't care if it's 123, it can
be.
1106
01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:10,880
It can be all nine.
To Tally's point, I'm sure Tally
1107
01:01:10,880 --> 01:01:15,640
won't fire everybody.
So it is true who is in the
1108
01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:17,280
who's, who's in the box with the
book.
1109
01:01:17,320 --> 01:01:19,320
I don't think I've seen Chris on
the sidelines.
1110
01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:20,920
I don't know who's up in the box
with the book.
1111
01:01:21,800 --> 01:01:23,440
That's what that's on the
sidelines.
1112
01:01:23,440 --> 01:01:25,680
Because Tebow's in the booth
that that be that's.
1113
01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:27,080
I don't.
I don't think Tebow's got the
1114
01:01:27,080 --> 01:01:28,120
book.
I think it's one of the other.
1115
01:01:28,120 --> 01:01:30,760
Analysts.
But I'm just saying like, you
1116
01:01:30,840 --> 01:01:32,160
don't, you don't give the book
to Tebow.
1117
01:01:32,160 --> 01:01:33,640
I mean.
What do y'all think about Chris?
1118
01:01:33,640 --> 01:01:35,240
We didn't even we didn't talk
about him.
1119
01:01:35,600 --> 01:01:36,560
He doesn't see it on the right
now.
1120
01:01:36,560 --> 01:01:38,640
What y'all think about him?
What do I think about Chris?
1121
01:01:38,840 --> 01:01:43,400
Yeah, what I think about Chris
is where Kyron is right now.
1122
01:01:44,080 --> 01:01:46,560
He is the mechanical quarterback
coach, right?
1123
01:01:47,160 --> 01:01:48,920
Bowen's.
Bowen's a coordinator.
1124
01:01:48,920 --> 01:01:50,600
Bowen's trying to get the
offense moving.
1125
01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:54,520
I haven't seen the improvement
from Kyron like we were
1126
01:01:54,520 --> 01:01:57,000
expecting.
And I think that falls directly
1127
01:01:57,000 --> 01:02:00,520
on Brian.
Chris, you know, I, I and, and I
1128
01:02:00,520 --> 01:02:03,400
can't remember who I saw say
this and I, I want to give them
1129
01:02:03,400 --> 01:02:08,360
credit, but the question is to,
you know, you saw Kyron go down
1130
01:02:08,360 --> 01:02:10,280
to South Beach.
Is that who he should have been
1131
01:02:10,280 --> 01:02:13,760
working out with this year?
Was it you, Sheldon?
1132
01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:16,560
Did you send that somebody made?
That.
1133
01:02:17,280 --> 01:02:20,040
Somebody made that message.
I wish I remember who it was.
1134
01:02:20,160 --> 01:02:23,880
If you it was you, put yourself
in the chat, I'll shout you out.
1135
01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:26,680
But did he make a mistake going
down there working out with
1136
01:02:26,680 --> 01:02:29,800
those guys?
He's not those guys.
1137
01:02:30,520 --> 01:02:33,040
Did he make a mistake working
out with the wrong guys in the
1138
01:02:33,040 --> 01:02:34,200
offseason?
I don't know.
1139
01:02:34,440 --> 01:02:37,120
Is Brian Criss doing a good
enough job to develop people?
1140
01:02:37,680 --> 01:02:39,760
You know, everybody's like,
well, look, Colin Schlee, Colin
1141
01:02:39,760 --> 01:02:43,480
Schlee played six years.
Some guys have just played long
1142
01:02:43,480 --> 01:02:44,920
enough.
The mechanics are going to come
1143
01:02:44,920 --> 01:02:48,200
more natural for them.
So maybe you're right, Tally.
1144
01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:50,800
Maybe you're looking at some of
these analysts who aren't
1145
01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:55,600
effectively doing their jobs and
improving people, but.
1146
01:02:56,160 --> 01:02:59,480
Again, I don't know, I mean, I
just look at certain things.
1147
01:02:59,480 --> 01:03:04,440
I'm like, you know, Pop has been
on the Pop has been on campus
1148
01:03:04,440 --> 01:03:07,200
for two years, you know, 18
months.
1149
01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:11,600
What have we seen from him?
You know, can he, what can he do
1150
01:03:11,600 --> 01:03:15,040
for us?
You know, looking at Karen, I
1151
01:03:15,040 --> 01:03:17,800
wouldn't say when you talk
about, you know, Karen going and
1152
01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:21,880
out with, you know, the other
guys and stuff.
1153
01:03:22,160 --> 01:03:25,520
I wouldn't say that that is a a
bad thing because you are
1154
01:03:25,520 --> 01:03:29,440
getting some coaching from a
quarterback coach and you're
1155
01:03:29,440 --> 01:03:33,120
getting some things that's going
to help you monetarily as far
1156
01:03:33,120 --> 01:03:36,360
far as NIL or getting you some
podcast looks and stuff.
1157
01:03:36,560 --> 01:03:39,360
But when those players come
back, they're coming back to
1158
01:03:39,360 --> 01:03:42,880
you, you as a coach, you have to
take what they've done and what
1159
01:03:42,880 --> 01:03:47,160
you see and say that ain't going
to work or what you've done
1160
01:03:47,160 --> 01:03:49,000
here.
We have to switch that up or
1161
01:03:49,880 --> 01:03:52,200
hey, you ain't ready, you ain't
going to play, you know, I don't
1162
01:03:52,200 --> 01:03:53,920
know.
That's the kind of things I look
1163
01:03:53,920 --> 01:03:56,360
at from the coaches.
I just don't, you know, I don't
1164
01:03:56,360 --> 01:03:56,840
know, man.
I got.
1165
01:03:57,240 --> 01:03:58,960
You.
I got you all right.
1166
01:03:59,000 --> 01:03:59,560
Well, that.
Was.
1167
01:03:59,560 --> 01:04:02,240
I mean, that was good.
Let's make some tough decisions
1168
01:04:02,240 --> 01:04:05,360
here though, because I like what
this is, James, who got to see
1169
01:04:05,360 --> 01:04:07,160
the presser today.
Not afraid of tough
1170
01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:11,360
conversations you had to make a
conversation with.
1171
01:04:11,360 --> 01:04:13,600
Yourself and your staff and not
just the players.
1172
01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:17,000
Not just the players, I think.
That's I think we're getting to
1173
01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:19,960
a point where you know that
that's where we're coming to a
1174
01:04:19,960 --> 01:04:23,040
head and.
Who's then?
1175
01:04:23,040 --> 01:04:25,480
Brian, who's got to go?
You sitting across from Coach
1176
01:04:25,520 --> 01:04:27,640
Pride, you've been given
$100,000.
1177
01:04:28,240 --> 01:04:29,880
Coach you, you got to let these
guys go.
1178
01:04:30,080 --> 01:04:31,640
I'm sorry, or you've got to do
this?
1179
01:04:32,200 --> 01:04:36,880
To to me it is, it is coach Marv
and and I think coach Marv is a
1180
01:04:36,880 --> 01:04:41,720
good guy, but to me, too many
late game collapses from this
1181
01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:46,120
defense and from looking at him
for just from a coaching
1182
01:04:46,120 --> 01:04:52,240
perspective, his unit is not
good enough to justify also the
1183
01:04:52,240 --> 01:04:55,440
fact that he is kind of a
recruiting liability as well.
1184
01:04:56,840 --> 01:04:59,880
So you, you put those three
things together, that tells me
1185
01:04:59,880 --> 01:05:04,560
that Marv has to go.
OK, just Marv nobody else right
1186
01:05:04,560 --> 01:05:07,880
now.
If you're saying has to go, so
1187
01:05:07,880 --> 01:05:10,920
there's going to be some guys
that I could have a conversation
1188
01:05:10,920 --> 01:05:14,960
with you about as well, but the
only person that I think has to
1189
01:05:14,960 --> 01:05:18,520
go is Coach Marv.
OK, Shelton.
1190
01:05:21,400 --> 01:05:24,440
So I'm going to punt here and
and I'm not, I'm not going to
1191
01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:28,440
say anyone has to go, but I will
say I'm certainly underwhelmed
1192
01:05:28,520 --> 01:05:33,240
with Marv, you know, given that
he's, you know, the leader of
1193
01:05:33,240 --> 01:05:37,280
the defense.
And I just I think they have
1194
01:05:37,480 --> 01:05:40,080
stagnated a little bit.
I don't think they've really,
1195
01:05:40,680 --> 01:05:42,960
you know, when I look at the
offense, I see a team that's
1196
01:05:42,960 --> 01:05:45,240
going to kind of over performed
a little bit like they've sort
1197
01:05:45,240 --> 01:05:47,680
of made the most out of the
cards that they've been dealt.
1198
01:05:48,400 --> 01:05:50,600
I don't really say the same for
the defense because they were,
1199
01:05:51,000 --> 01:05:52,160
you know, they were good in
price.
1200
01:05:52,320 --> 01:05:53,920
They were decent in price first
year.
1201
01:05:54,840 --> 01:05:57,200
You know, they had the
opportunity to to build and
1202
01:05:57,200 --> 01:05:58,680
recruit these last two years in
the portal.
1203
01:05:58,880 --> 01:06:00,600
Whereas with the offense, I
mean, they were starting
1204
01:06:00,600 --> 01:06:02,840
literally from scratch and it's
been kind of a slow, you know,
1205
01:06:02,840 --> 01:06:05,440
the steady progress, but the
offense has gotten incrementally
1206
01:06:05,440 --> 01:06:08,040
better every season by, you
know, a pretty wide margin
1207
01:06:08,560 --> 01:06:10,320
defense.
I think they've stagnated.
1208
01:06:10,400 --> 01:06:13,520
They took a step back this year.
There was a top 30 defense last
1209
01:06:13,520 --> 01:06:14,640
year.
They're they're they're taking a
1210
01:06:14,640 --> 01:06:16,560
step back and they're like 50-60
this year.
1211
01:06:16,840 --> 01:06:20,240
So yeah, it's it's not only
stagnated, it's a step back.
1212
01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:23,520
You can't fire them all, but you
got to tell them hey, get rid of
1213
01:06:23,520 --> 01:06:26,440
this.
Call them all in the room and
1214
01:06:26,440 --> 01:06:28,880
cuss them all out, starting with
the head coach.
1215
01:06:28,880 --> 01:06:32,800
You cuss him too.
You you you messing up too.
1216
01:06:32,800 --> 01:06:36,760
But bars.
I like you buddy, but one of my
1217
01:06:36,760 --> 01:06:39,640
coaching buddies said you won't
recruit none of his players.
1218
01:06:39,720 --> 01:06:44,680
He's got a, he's got a, a
championship winning team.
1219
01:06:45,280 --> 01:06:50,160
I think he's lost four games in
four years at a high school
1220
01:06:50,160 --> 01:06:52,240
here, and he knows Marr very
well.
1221
01:06:53,840 --> 01:06:57,280
Besides all that, you keep on
fucking up, man, and I liked
1222
01:06:57,280 --> 01:06:59,920
you.
I wanted to, but you got to go
1223
01:07:00,360 --> 01:07:06,200
Stew, hope, put on your book bag
and start hitch hiking.
1224
01:07:08,720 --> 01:07:10,400
Halloween's over.
You ain't got to worry about
1225
01:07:10,400 --> 01:07:12,120
Michael Miles and nobody chasing
you.
1226
01:07:12,680 --> 01:07:15,120
Just ease on down, ease on down
the road.
1227
01:07:15,840 --> 01:07:18,000
I still have the.
RV You think You think you still
1228
01:07:18,000 --> 01:07:21,080
got the RV?
It's so hard for me.
1229
01:07:21,280 --> 01:07:23,600
It's so hard for me for the Stew
hope thing because I mean, we
1230
01:07:23,600 --> 01:07:26,640
did have a lot of different
collapses and things like that.
1231
01:07:26,640 --> 01:07:30,240
But at the same time, if I'm
going to give, you know, go at a
1232
01:07:30,240 --> 01:07:31,400
coach, I got to give him some
credit.
1233
01:07:31,400 --> 01:07:36,320
I mean, we do have John Love,
who is the man, you know, he has
1234
01:07:36,320 --> 01:07:40,720
to be developed by somebody.
Peter Moore same booming the
1235
01:07:40,720 --> 01:07:45,160
ball.
So what I mean took a Holloway,
1236
01:07:45,160 --> 01:07:48,480
if he was there, you know, I
feel like Lane, I feel like Lane
1237
01:07:48,480 --> 01:07:51,880
this year has been as I don't
know if he's injured, he's just
1238
01:07:51,880 --> 01:07:55,560
a step different, especially on
punt, you know, I don't know if
1239
01:07:55,560 --> 01:07:58,360
you can put somebody else back
there, but it's been sometimes
1240
01:07:58,360 --> 01:08:01,920
when I've seen maybe some holes
open up and Lane's just not as
1241
01:08:01,920 --> 01:08:06,800
quick to get there as he was.
So I hate to say it about Stu.
1242
01:08:06,800 --> 01:08:11,120
Like I feel bad to say Stu has
to go, but if I'm just having
1243
01:08:11,120 --> 01:08:15,240
that tough conversation, I'm
sorry that things didn't work
1244
01:08:15,240 --> 01:08:17,040
out for you.
You did a good job by getting us
1245
01:08:17,040 --> 01:08:18,479
love, but you got to go to all
right.
1246
01:08:19,359 --> 01:08:21,760
First of all, I'm going to put
what Jim said up here.
1247
01:08:22,760 --> 01:08:26,080
Yes, this is the exercise, Jim.
You got to throw somebody under
1248
01:08:26,080 --> 01:08:28,279
the bus.
Jim, are you going to keep Jim?
1249
01:08:28,279 --> 01:08:30,560
I know you're out there, you're
always with us.
1250
01:08:30,840 --> 01:08:33,640
I love you because you put a
great bunch of comments in and
1251
01:08:33,640 --> 01:08:35,040
I'm going to throw this right to
Jim.
1252
01:08:35,160 --> 01:08:37,479
So Jim, are you not letting
anybody go?
1253
01:08:37,720 --> 01:08:42,040
5 and 4 is acceptable, 7:00 and
6:00 last year was acceptable.
1254
01:08:42,040 --> 01:08:44,240
I'm going to put that on you
because I'm going to do the
1255
01:08:44,240 --> 01:08:46,800
other question in a second.
Six and six this year.
1256
01:08:46,800 --> 01:08:48,680
Is that acceptable?
Is that acceptable?
1257
01:08:48,720 --> 01:08:50,720
Maybe seven and six would have
both six and seven, whatever.
1258
01:08:51,040 --> 01:08:55,800
But I'm also going to go more
because I keep saying, y'all,
1259
01:08:58,240 --> 01:09:04,399
how often is Pry in that room?
How many times, because I'm
1260
01:09:04,399 --> 01:09:06,479
sitting here, I'm going to say,
you know what, the Stanford
1261
01:09:06,479 --> 01:09:08,279
game, Brent Pryor was in that
room all week.
1262
01:09:08,760 --> 01:09:11,240
He created that game plan.
That's why we only gave up
1263
01:09:11,240 --> 01:09:13,640
seven.
Then he turned it back over and
1264
01:09:13,640 --> 01:09:20,720
then BC and then all this.
So and it's more of the there's
1265
01:09:20,720 --> 01:09:23,080
there's a model out there.
They got wrote this year by
1266
01:09:23,080 --> 01:09:26,880
Clark Lee where if you're a
defensive head coach, take over
1267
01:09:26,880 --> 01:09:30,920
to defense, go find some senior
guy to help out with the
1268
01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:32,720
offense.
Look what's happened with
1269
01:09:32,720 --> 01:09:36,040
Vanderbilt and I know they have
a good quarterback, but you saw
1270
01:09:36,040 --> 01:09:39,120
that right and happened right.
They beat us.
1271
01:09:39,120 --> 01:09:41,760
They beat Alabama.
They they should have beat they
1272
01:09:41,760 --> 01:09:44,640
got they got a job to Texas to
Texas was a job.
1273
01:09:44,640 --> 01:09:48,080
They should have beat Texas.
The SEC couldn't let that SEC
1274
01:09:48,080 --> 01:09:50,120
couldn't let that happen.
They couldn't let that
1275
01:09:50,120 --> 01:09:52,160
Vanderbilt team beat another
good team.
1276
01:09:52,720 --> 01:09:56,280
But for, but for Chris Maher,
it's it Brian says that the,
1277
01:09:56,360 --> 01:09:58,360
the, the, it's the collapses at
the end.
1278
01:09:59,080 --> 01:10:00,320
And and y'all, I'm going to go
back.
1279
01:10:00,600 --> 01:10:04,240
You know, even like the last
couple years we've had those,
1280
01:10:04,680 --> 01:10:08,360
you know, we've had those games
last year where we fell apart at
1281
01:10:08,360 --> 01:10:10,600
the end.
You know, think about the
1282
01:10:10,600 --> 01:10:12,040
Marshall game.
I know we always put on the
1283
01:10:12,040 --> 01:10:16,680
offense, but the defense gave up
all the second-half points, you
1284
01:10:16,680 --> 01:10:20,000
know, so and again, I think he
is a nice human being.
1285
01:10:20,000 --> 01:10:21,600
He's probably a great football
mind.
1286
01:10:21,920 --> 01:10:25,280
But it's like I think somebody
put in the chat about an hour
1287
01:10:25,280 --> 01:10:27,760
ago when we were first starting.
It doesn't feel like he has the
1288
01:10:27,760 --> 01:10:30,720
killer instinct mentality to be
A, to be a defensive
1289
01:10:30,720 --> 01:10:35,440
coordinator, which you have to
have, which you absolutely have
1290
01:10:35,440 --> 01:10:37,720
to have.
I need my defensive coordinators
1291
01:10:37,720 --> 01:10:40,560
to be sweaty.
I know Marv is black, but I want
1292
01:10:40,560 --> 01:10:45,840
him to be red like Kirby Smart
be, you know, freaking yelling
1293
01:10:45,840 --> 01:10:48,000
on the sideline like Will
Muschamp used to be.
1294
01:10:48,280 --> 01:10:51,280
I need to see you, like, get on
somebody.
1295
01:10:51,840 --> 01:10:53,360
I think we were in zero
coverage.
1296
01:10:53,360 --> 01:10:57,360
And you know, Monsieur comes up
and tries to jump around, misses
1297
01:10:57,360 --> 01:11:01,560
a tackle guy looks like he's
running with a peg leg and goes
1298
01:11:01,560 --> 01:11:05,360
and scores a touchdown.
And you know, it's 21 to three.
1299
01:11:05,760 --> 01:11:07,800
You get a stop right there.
If you just come up and tackle
1300
01:11:07,800 --> 01:11:11,360
that guy, I think it's 4th and
three or fourth and four,
1301
01:11:11,360 --> 01:11:13,520
something like that.
And you know, we see what
1302
01:11:13,520 --> 01:11:15,120
happens and that's a totally
different game.
1303
01:11:15,640 --> 01:11:18,600
When that happens, I want the
camera to pan to my defensive
1304
01:11:18,600 --> 01:11:21,080
coordinator and him to be a
wreck.
1305
01:11:21,120 --> 01:11:24,800
I want him to throw his headset.
I want him to grab the person
1306
01:11:24,800 --> 01:11:26,720
that mess.
I want, I want to see some
1307
01:11:26,720 --> 01:11:29,680
emotion, you know, I just think
our coaching staff is too nice,
1308
01:11:30,320 --> 01:11:32,120
you know, I think they follow
that from the head coach A.
1309
01:11:33,040 --> 01:11:36,120
Little too even keel, I think.
You won't even keel, but
1310
01:11:36,120 --> 01:11:38,520
sometimes it's.
You got to get angry.
1311
01:11:38,640 --> 01:11:41,320
You got to get angry.
You got to have another gear,
1312
01:11:41,320 --> 01:11:43,480
right?
Like, I think that's that,
1313
01:11:43,480 --> 01:11:46,200
that's what I think we're maybe
missing is that we don't have
1314
01:11:46,200 --> 01:11:51,440
that extra gear that this staff
can kind of light into when they
1315
01:11:51,440 --> 01:11:57,200
need to, to kind of bring things
back when the when the wheels
1316
01:11:57,200 --> 01:12:01,160
fall off a little bit.
All right, because because we we
1317
01:12:01,160 --> 01:12:02,960
see that snowball happen a lot
now.
1318
01:12:02,960 --> 01:12:05,840
It doesn't it doesn't happen
with the frequency that we saw
1319
01:12:06,920 --> 01:12:11,320
in year 1, but we're still
seeing that snowball effect
1320
01:12:11,320 --> 01:12:14,240
happened in these games.
We're just a lot more talented
1321
01:12:14,240 --> 01:12:17,840
now where it doesn't end up, you
know, being a completely fall
1322
01:12:17,840 --> 01:12:20,680
off the Cliff situation.
Yeah, I'm going to put up Jim
1323
01:12:20,680 --> 01:12:22,280
because Jim, appreciate the
answer man.
1324
01:12:22,280 --> 01:12:30,720
I actually I like this a lot
right here, but but that that's
1325
01:12:30,720 --> 01:12:33,920
another story.
By the way, Robbie agreeing with
1326
01:12:33,920 --> 01:12:37,280
the linebackers.
Y'all think Jim also asked, does
1327
01:12:37,280 --> 01:12:40,360
anybody bail on us?
Well, that's just the fact of
1328
01:12:40,360 --> 01:12:42,440
life.
Somebody could easily leave this
1329
01:12:42,440 --> 01:12:44,240
offseason and we wouldn't be
shocked.
1330
01:12:44,840 --> 01:12:51,200
So right, like, like, you know,
as much as Tally was joking on
1331
01:12:51,200 --> 01:12:55,600
Stu Holt, Caitlin de Boer might
be like, man, he knows how to do
1332
01:12:55,600 --> 01:12:57,800
punters and kickers.
We have that problem down at
1333
01:12:57,800 --> 01:13:00,680
Alabama.
Let me go pay him $750,000.
1334
01:13:00,680 --> 01:13:03,920
He knows how to train them.
That's just the fact of life and
1335
01:13:03,920 --> 01:13:06,520
coaching in general nowadays at
college football that if
1336
01:13:06,520 --> 01:13:09,800
somebody from a blue blood
program wants one of your guys,
1337
01:13:11,080 --> 01:13:12,600
they usually can write the
checks.
1338
01:13:14,440 --> 01:13:15,880
So, yeah.
All right.
1339
01:13:15,880 --> 01:13:18,240
Last question.
And by the way, told you I was
1340
01:13:18,240 --> 01:13:21,040
going to be an hour doing this.
I don't lie.
1341
01:13:21,680 --> 01:13:24,520
I know my, I know my boys here.
I know how we talk on this shit.
1342
01:13:25,120 --> 01:13:33,640
But if Brent Pry is let go and I
think Jim, you put it in there,
1343
01:13:34,200 --> 01:13:35,840
does Whip Babcock make that
decision?
1344
01:13:35,840 --> 01:13:37,160
Sheldon, I'm putting this on
you.
1345
01:13:37,440 --> 01:13:41,200
A, you work in athletic
departments before you are an
1346
01:13:41,200 --> 01:13:45,440
alumni out of the school.
Should Whip Babcock be the
1347
01:13:45,440 --> 01:13:51,720
person that makes that decision?
I would say, I would say no.
1348
01:13:51,800 --> 01:13:56,240
I think, you know, first of all,
Witt is certainly closing on the
1349
01:13:56,240 --> 01:13:58,800
end of his Virginia Tech tenure.
And that's not, you know, some
1350
01:13:58,800 --> 01:14:00,600
some drastic statement like he's
been here 10 years.
1351
01:14:00,600 --> 01:14:03,520
He's not going to be here for,
you know, an extreme long amount
1352
01:14:03,520 --> 01:14:05,840
of time.
Like, you know, you, you'll get
1353
01:14:05,840 --> 01:14:08,440
2 football hires if you mess up
on both of them.
1354
01:14:09,080 --> 01:14:11,640
That's probably all.
So, you know, I could see a
1355
01:14:11,640 --> 01:14:14,400
situation maybe Witt, you know,
a few years says, hey, you know
1356
01:14:14,400 --> 01:14:17,680
what, I'm moving on and then
maybe prior stays next day he
1357
01:14:17,680 --> 01:14:20,480
comes in can reevaluate things
from there.
1358
01:14:21,240 --> 01:14:27,120
But I do think that's his tenure
is certainly closer to to being
1359
01:14:27,200 --> 01:14:28,960
done than it is to being
started.
1360
01:14:29,360 --> 01:14:33,000
So.
Callie.
1361
01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:38,640
You got to get out of there.
He can't make no more highs.
1362
01:14:39,880 --> 01:14:41,360
You can't.
You can't make no more football
1363
01:14:41,400 --> 01:14:46,560
highs, buddy.
Sorry, I mean, again, I've
1364
01:14:46,560 --> 01:14:48,240
talked about this with a couple
people too.
1365
01:14:49,040 --> 01:14:54,040
When we hired Fuente like that
was a was that not a splash
1366
01:14:54,040 --> 01:14:55,880
hire?
Like that was Florida State did
1367
01:14:55,880 --> 01:14:58,280
the same thing.
That was a great hire.
1368
01:14:58,280 --> 01:15:02,120
Like when hired Norville, it was
like, man, Florida State did a
1369
01:15:02,120 --> 01:15:03,600
great job, you know what I'm
saying?
1370
01:15:04,160 --> 01:15:05,920
And then he takes him to the
playoffs and something.
1371
01:15:05,920 --> 01:15:09,120
So I can't put it all on wit,
you know what I'm saying?
1372
01:15:09,120 --> 01:15:10,800
Sometimes it just has to do with
fit.
1373
01:15:11,360 --> 01:15:14,600
I don't think Brett Pryor was a
bad hire, you know what I'm
1374
01:15:14,600 --> 01:15:16,920
saying?
So it's hard to answer that
1375
01:15:16,920 --> 01:15:19,280
question.
It just comes down to kind of
1376
01:15:19,280 --> 01:15:22,400
what Sheldon says.
It's like, OK, like, is it time
1377
01:15:22,400 --> 01:15:24,560
for him to move on?
Is it time for him to go ahead
1378
01:15:24,560 --> 01:15:27,600
and do something different?
And hopefully the next person
1379
01:15:27,600 --> 01:15:31,560
that comes in has a
concentration in something,
1380
01:15:31,720 --> 01:15:37,280
hopefully football.
But again, a lot of people rag
1381
01:15:37,280 --> 01:15:40,920
on Wit, but I don't think that
the highest that he made were
1382
01:15:42,440 --> 01:15:44,960
like erroneous.
Like, I don't think they were
1383
01:15:45,160 --> 01:15:47,880
crazy.
I just think that sometimes it
1384
01:15:47,880 --> 01:15:51,360
doesn't work out.
Now, do we stick with stuff too
1385
01:15:51,360 --> 01:15:53,320
long?
That may be more of the issue of
1386
01:15:53,640 --> 01:15:56,720
how long do you let somebody
stay before it's time for them
1387
01:15:56,720 --> 01:15:59,200
to go or you make them make
changes.
1388
01:16:01,160 --> 01:16:03,320
I I.
Will say this, I, I, I have a
1389
01:16:03,320 --> 01:16:08,080
bigger problem with not
necessarily who that he's picked
1390
01:16:08,120 --> 01:16:12,040
for a lot of these spots, but
maybe how he's managed them
1391
01:16:12,080 --> 01:16:15,680
after that pick.
And that's the tally's point a
1392
01:16:15,680 --> 01:16:19,920
little bit, whether it goes back
to how quickly you put yourself
1393
01:16:19,920 --> 01:16:23,240
behind the 8 ball with Fuentes
contract with that extension.
1394
01:16:24,240 --> 01:16:27,280
You know, we can talk about some
other things on the basketball
1395
01:16:27,280 --> 01:16:29,080
front.
I mean, there there are things
1396
01:16:29,080 --> 01:16:31,960
that I think we do sometimes
where we lock ourselves into bad
1397
01:16:31,960 --> 01:16:34,960
situations.
If you're wet, if you lock
1398
01:16:34,960 --> 01:16:37,600
yourself into a bad situation,
then you have to own it a little
1399
01:16:37,600 --> 01:16:41,360
bit more than you have.
And that means let your guy know
1400
01:16:41,600 --> 01:16:43,880
a if it's not working, you got
to do something different,
1401
01:16:44,200 --> 01:16:46,840
whether that's fire guys, hire
guys, do something.
1402
01:16:47,120 --> 01:16:52,200
You got to, if you going to put
yourself in a position where you
1403
01:16:52,880 --> 01:16:55,840
have less control over the
situation from a contract
1404
01:16:55,840 --> 01:16:59,600
standpoint, you have to govern
that a little more close to your
1405
01:16:59,600 --> 01:17:02,720
vest and not just be the guy
that's overseeing the big ship
1406
01:17:02,720 --> 01:17:05,440
here.
So that that's been my problem
1407
01:17:05,440 --> 01:17:08,560
with wit.
And to that point, you've had
1408
01:17:08,560 --> 01:17:11,480
two situations where you got
into this point you don't get
1409
01:17:11,480 --> 01:17:13,440
1/3.
Nah, Nope.
1410
01:17:14,640 --> 01:17:17,520
Sheldon, close this out.
Yeah.
1411
01:17:17,520 --> 01:17:20,320
So just to kind of, you know,
put a cap around the wit
1412
01:17:20,320 --> 01:17:23,560
discussion, I will say I think,
you know, wit's always been a
1413
01:17:23,560 --> 01:17:25,880
big baseball guy.
Like he played baseball at GMU
1414
01:17:25,920 --> 01:17:27,560
and I talked with John Chef one
time.
1415
01:17:27,560 --> 01:17:29,680
He he straight of told me like
he's perceived as a guy that
1416
01:17:29,680 --> 01:17:32,280
really gets baseball.
So that's kind of his sport.
1417
01:17:32,280 --> 01:17:34,840
That's his expertise And you
know, say H1 about the baseball
1418
01:17:34,840 --> 01:17:36,480
program.
I'm just doing doing a good on
1419
01:17:36,480 --> 01:17:40,400
that that rabbit hole.
But I think as an, as an AD,
1420
01:17:40,520 --> 01:17:44,280
like, you know, you have to have
a certain type of feel for what
1421
01:17:44,280 --> 01:17:45,920
support needs.
Like I was listening to a
1422
01:17:45,920 --> 01:17:48,200
podcast with a softball coach I
used to work with and she's
1423
01:17:48,200 --> 01:17:51,480
telling me like when she took
the job at the at, at the school
1424
01:17:51,480 --> 01:17:54,720
she was working at, like she had
an AD who really understood
1425
01:17:54,720 --> 01:17:57,320
softball and, and what that
program needed to be successful.
1426
01:17:57,680 --> 01:18:00,920
I think the issue with wit is
that he just does not have the
1427
01:18:01,720 --> 01:18:05,360
the football background to sort
of have a good feel for like,
1428
01:18:05,440 --> 01:18:08,040
you know, what, what good
coaching looks like and what the
1429
01:18:08,040 --> 01:18:10,080
program necessarily needs to be
successful.
1430
01:18:10,080 --> 01:18:13,080
And that's not to say that, you
know, everything's bad or, you
1431
01:18:13,080 --> 01:18:15,800
know, maybe pride does work out
eventually, But I just think
1432
01:18:15,800 --> 01:18:18,080
there's there's something
missing on a fundamental level
1433
01:18:18,120 --> 01:18:21,720
that that sort of stems from the
fact that witches isn't truly on
1434
01:18:21,720 --> 01:18:23,560
a fundamental level a big
football guy.
1435
01:18:23,880 --> 01:18:25,640
And I think you can kind of see
that kind of filter out to the
1436
01:18:25,640 --> 01:18:28,040
rest of the program.
All righty.
1437
01:18:28,640 --> 01:18:31,640
So there it is.
We told our truth as much as we
1438
01:18:31,640 --> 01:18:36,240
could on the situation.
Obviously, I think we all feel
1439
01:18:36,240 --> 01:18:38,760
this way and I don't think
anybody doesn't feel this way.
1440
01:18:39,200 --> 01:18:42,560
Where we stand right now,
changes have to be made.
1441
01:18:43,440 --> 01:18:46,680
Changes have to be made because
I'm like what somebody said in
1442
01:18:46,680 --> 01:18:50,360
the chat a little while ago.
We sat here in December.
1443
01:18:50,360 --> 01:18:51,520
I'm trying to get the exact
date.
1444
01:18:51,520 --> 01:18:52,960
When was the last press
conference?
1445
01:18:54,280 --> 01:18:56,240
December, probably my mama's
birthday.
1446
01:18:57,480 --> 01:19:03,400
December 2nd, yeah.
Second, if December 2nd, there
1447
01:19:03,400 --> 01:19:07,760
is not a discussion of so and so
have been let go, so and so has
1448
01:19:07,760 --> 01:19:09,520
been let go, so and so has been
let go.
1449
01:19:09,560 --> 01:19:12,600
We're moving forward.
Then guess what?
1450
01:19:13,240 --> 01:19:16,880
Somebody like me at A5, I'm
coming up with Tally and
1451
01:19:16,880 --> 01:19:19,600
Shelton.
I'm like at A7 because then it's
1452
01:19:19,600 --> 01:19:22,520
like, what are you doing?
What are you doing?
1453
01:19:22,520 --> 01:19:26,080
Like fucking is tally.
You put the record up a little
1454
01:19:26,080 --> 01:19:31,280
bit earlier to us. 15 and 1815
and 18 don't work.
1455
01:19:31,280 --> 01:19:33,480
Don't care if you win these last
three games, you get to 18 and
1456
01:19:33,480 --> 01:19:37,480
1818 and 18 does not work.
Especially when this is the
1457
01:19:37,480 --> 01:19:39,240
case.
You won an 11 and one score
1458
01:19:39,240 --> 01:19:39,840
games.
Yo.
1459
01:19:39,880 --> 01:19:41,720
He's 14 and seven in other
games.
1460
01:19:43,000 --> 01:19:46,720
You imagine flipping that
narrative of close games and
1461
01:19:46,720 --> 01:19:51,240
just split it in half and being
like 20 and 13, we'd be feeling
1462
01:19:51,240 --> 01:19:53,600
really good from where we were
in 2022.
1463
01:19:54,640 --> 01:19:56,800
But that is what it is.
Anything else y'all want to say
1464
01:19:56,800 --> 01:20:00,520
before we we do have to talk
about the keys to this game this
1465
01:20:00,520 --> 01:20:03,360
weekend?
And I know I told y'all this was
1466
01:20:03,360 --> 01:20:05,920
going to take a lot out of us.
We've been talking all this shit
1467
01:20:05,920 --> 01:20:11,280
for the last hour.
So anything else I'll give you
1468
01:20:11,280 --> 01:20:13,760
all I.
Got man, I've got it off my
1469
01:20:13,760 --> 01:20:15,320
chest.
I'm ready to move on.
1470
01:20:15,920 --> 01:20:19,120
Let's talk about the keys of
this Clemson game, let's talk
1471
01:20:19,120 --> 01:20:22,000
some predictions, and then let's
let's make some fun picks to
1472
01:20:22,000 --> 01:20:24,280
close this bitch out and then
y'all can go look at the
1473
01:20:24,280 --> 01:20:27,280
electoral maps if y'all want to.
No, I got that up over here.
1474
01:20:27,480 --> 01:20:30,520
Well, Brian, you said what's
your, what's your keys?
1475
01:20:32,840 --> 01:20:34,800
I mean, I think we already
talked about it a lot tonight
1476
01:20:34,800 --> 01:20:37,160
and it's going to it's going to
carry over here, man.
1477
01:20:37,200 --> 01:20:41,640
I need to see great situational
football from the coaches and
1478
01:20:41,640 --> 01:20:46,640
the players in this game.
Listen, I want to see.
1479
01:20:46,640 --> 01:20:51,760
That's the key to success.
All right, Sean Natali.
1480
01:20:53,040 --> 01:20:55,640
Well, I'll go next.
I just I mean, I hate to kind of
1481
01:20:55,640 --> 01:20:58,480
sound redundant and sound, you
know, say what Brian says, but
1482
01:20:58,840 --> 01:21:02,760
mine was coach you you have to
coach, you know, to beat
1483
01:21:02,760 --> 01:21:06,120
Clemson, you're going to have to
I don't even want to say out
1484
01:21:06,120 --> 01:21:07,600
coaching.
You're going to have to coach
1485
01:21:07,600 --> 01:21:08,920
them though.
You have to coach, you know,
1486
01:21:09,520 --> 01:21:11,320
you're going to have to make
adjustments.
1487
01:21:11,360 --> 01:21:15,520
You're going to have to have
some timeouts called at the
1488
01:21:15,520 --> 01:21:19,840
right times and certain.
You got to go in and coach, you
1489
01:21:19,840 --> 01:21:22,320
know, I'll even go a step
farther.
1490
01:21:23,200 --> 01:21:25,440
You got to coach like your job
depends on it.
1491
01:21:26,760 --> 01:21:28,760
That's going to be a quick key
to beating Clemson.
1492
01:21:29,200 --> 01:21:34,920
You can't be going in here and
happy that Hokey Nation showed
1493
01:21:34,920 --> 01:21:39,640
up and we sold out another game.
You got to be if we don't win
1494
01:21:39,640 --> 01:21:42,000
this game, this might be it,
right?
1495
01:21:42,360 --> 01:21:44,880
We we need to have that mindset
for the rest of the year as the
1496
01:21:44,880 --> 01:21:47,960
culture staff, in my opinion.
What about you, Sheldon?
1497
01:21:49,640 --> 01:21:52,560
Act like you're the better team.
I mean, we've seen Tech, you
1498
01:21:52,600 --> 01:21:55,080
know, handle handle competition
against against team that they
1499
01:21:55,080 --> 01:21:56,160
they should, that they're better
than.
1500
01:21:56,160 --> 01:21:58,480
And I think this is a game
where, you know, for the first
1501
01:21:58,480 --> 01:22:00,640
time in a long time, Vt has a
has a good chance to beat
1502
01:22:00,640 --> 01:22:01,800
Clemson.
I think they match up well.
1503
01:22:01,800 --> 01:22:04,240
I think that, you know, the the
teams aren't too different and
1504
01:22:04,240 --> 01:22:05,600
this again, that they're more
than capable of winning.
1505
01:22:05,600 --> 01:22:07,840
So come into the game acts like
you're the better team at
1506
01:22:08,080 --> 01:22:11,640
expecting that you should win.
I like that.
1507
01:22:11,880 --> 01:22:14,480
I'm going to go back to
something that a couple people
1508
01:22:14,480 --> 01:22:17,960
said earlier.
I want to see meanness.
1509
01:22:17,960 --> 01:22:21,280
And when I say meanness, not
only from the players or from
1510
01:22:21,280 --> 01:22:23,680
the coaches, I want to see Brent
Pryor this week because there's
1511
01:22:23,680 --> 01:22:27,120
going to be some bullshit call.
There's one every week to
1512
01:22:27,120 --> 01:22:29,720
fucking get in, slam something,
show emotion.
1513
01:22:29,720 --> 01:22:32,160
I want to see guys on the
sidelines show emotion.
1514
01:22:32,160 --> 01:22:34,480
I want to see if a player fucks
up.
1515
01:22:35,760 --> 01:22:37,640
I want to see the.
I mean, we saw Frank do it.
1516
01:22:37,640 --> 01:22:40,240
Y'all even older Frank would
grab a guy about a face mask and
1517
01:22:40,240 --> 01:22:42,120
get in their face.
We saw that.
1518
01:22:42,760 --> 01:22:45,160
Get mean.
Set a tone.
1519
01:22:46,120 --> 01:22:49,440
Because nice guys don't win
football games.
1520
01:22:49,520 --> 01:22:52,680
Assholes win football games and
we're playing too nice.
1521
01:22:53,280 --> 01:22:57,560
Get mean because I think one of
those wide receivers go across
1522
01:22:57,560 --> 01:22:59,880
the middle and most Phillips
lays the hammer on them.
1523
01:23:00,320 --> 01:23:01,960
Don't get a targeting penalty,
please.
1524
01:23:02,240 --> 01:23:03,600
We ain't good enough.
It's safety to lose.
1525
01:23:03,600 --> 01:23:07,560
Somebody set the tone, coaches
set the tone.
1526
01:23:07,920 --> 01:23:11,600
That's the key to me this week
and I'm going to go ahead and
1527
01:23:11,600 --> 01:23:15,240
roll into my prediction.
And as much as I want to see him
1528
01:23:15,240 --> 01:23:18,920
play mean, I think unfortunately
King, Clemson getting kicked in
1529
01:23:18,920 --> 01:23:22,080
the balls last weekend was not
good for us.
1530
01:23:22,560 --> 01:23:26,000
I think we play competitive, but
I do think we lose this game
1531
01:23:26,000 --> 01:23:30,440
somewhere in the neighborhood,
similar to Miami like a 3831
1532
01:23:30,440 --> 01:23:32,560
game.
I do think we put some points on
1533
01:23:32,560 --> 01:23:34,080
them, even though that defense
is good.
1534
01:23:35,000 --> 01:23:38,600
No one Capehart is out now, no
one Tooting likely back another
1535
01:23:38,600 --> 01:23:41,760
questionable I think.
I think they get us by a
1536
01:23:41,760 --> 01:23:48,360
touchdown.
Yeah, I said I'll go.
1537
01:23:48,400 --> 01:23:52,360
My prediction was I think it's
going to be a little bit more
1538
01:23:52,360 --> 01:23:55,880
than that.
Clemson probably about 45 to 28.
1539
01:23:56,040 --> 01:24:01,040
So we got too many people
injured, you know, from, you
1540
01:24:01,040 --> 01:24:03,120
know, process this person
questionable, questionable,
1541
01:24:03,120 --> 01:24:05,040
questionable.
They're probably not playing.
1542
01:24:05,480 --> 01:24:10,040
So I think we got too many
people injured to to come out
1543
01:24:10,040 --> 01:24:12,440
with a win in this game.
All right.
1544
01:24:13,640 --> 01:24:16,080
Yeah, I'm unfortunately not to
say Clemson.
1545
01:24:16,080 --> 01:24:18,080
A couple reasons.
Like Curtis said, they're going
1546
01:24:18,080 --> 01:24:20,320
to be pissed off coming to this
game, but they lost last week
1547
01:24:20,680 --> 01:24:23,120
and they have a full game of
film to study Schlee and the
1548
01:24:23,240 --> 01:24:26,320
backup running back.
So I just, I don't feel great
1549
01:24:26,320 --> 01:24:28,280
with the matchup.
I think V2 will backdoor cover
1550
01:24:28,520 --> 01:24:35,600
but Clemson wins 30 to 24.
I, I like the Tigers in this one
1551
01:24:35,600 --> 01:24:38,720
3428.
I just, I don't think we're
1552
01:24:38,720 --> 01:24:42,160
going to have enough gas in this
on either side of the football
1553
01:24:42,400 --> 01:24:45,400
to, to really get it done, take
care of business here.
1554
01:24:45,920 --> 01:24:47,920
I think it's going to be closer
than a lot of people are
1555
01:24:47,920 --> 01:24:50,560
thinking, especially after last
week and especially considering
1556
01:24:51,400 --> 01:24:52,880
who we may or may not have
playing.
1557
01:24:53,240 --> 01:24:55,920
I'm not really sure what to take
away from that because, you
1558
01:24:55,920 --> 01:24:59,240
know, last week we got a
probable designation and then
1559
01:24:59,960 --> 01:25:02,600
and then now we got a
questionable designation for
1560
01:25:02,920 --> 01:25:05,840
more players.
But so who who's going to really
1561
01:25:05,840 --> 01:25:08,640
know what that looks like?
But let me ask you this.
1562
01:25:08,640 --> 01:25:10,280
So we got our predictions in
there.
1563
01:25:10,720 --> 01:25:15,440
We all think the Tigers are
going to win and, and I'm going
1564
01:25:15,440 --> 01:25:17,640
to shout out Grayson Wimbish on
this one.
1565
01:25:17,640 --> 01:25:23,880
But if we win, is that going to
piss you off a little bit?
1566
01:25:24,960 --> 01:25:27,160
No.
Why?
1567
01:25:28,920 --> 01:25:35,800
So given given the outcomes in
Rutgers, Miami against Syracuse,
1568
01:25:36,200 --> 01:25:38,040
but then you go and beat
Clemson.
1569
01:25:38,200 --> 01:25:40,320
When it don't even matter.
Doesn't matter.
1570
01:25:40,360 --> 01:25:42,400
That could have mattered if
you'd have just taken care of
1571
01:25:42,400 --> 01:25:44,640
business.
Let me tell you, going to bed on
1572
01:25:44,640 --> 01:25:48,080
Saturday night with a win, I
don't give a fuck who it's over
1573
01:25:48,080 --> 01:25:50,040
is a hell of a lot better than
going to bed with a fucking
1574
01:25:50,040 --> 01:25:53,000
loss.
All right, so that's some dumb
1575
01:25:53,000 --> 01:25:55,280
bullshit.
Grayson, I love you, but that's
1576
01:25:55,280 --> 01:25:57,800
stupid.
I will be mad if we beat Clemson
1577
01:25:58,160 --> 01:26:01,840
because you say what you want to
say to what Jonathan Talley said
1578
01:26:01,840 --> 01:26:03,880
this year.
That'd be a signature.
1579
01:26:04,320 --> 01:26:07,080
There'd be kids saying, well,
they fucked up those games, but
1580
01:26:07,360 --> 01:26:11,000
they could be the team that
good, right?
1581
01:26:11,640 --> 01:26:16,000
Yeah, I won't be mad if we win.
I just know that we ain't so I
1582
01:26:16,000 --> 01:26:20,120
ain't even thinking about it.
Yeah, I always, always
1583
01:26:20,120 --> 01:26:22,360
appreciate every win you get,
especially because it's off 25
1584
01:26:22,360 --> 01:26:24,280
team.
You got to appreciate the win.
1585
01:26:24,320 --> 01:26:26,560
You also got to think, well, you
know, this gets you bowl
1586
01:26:26,560 --> 01:26:29,160
eligibility for you know,
whether you whether you care
1587
01:26:29,160 --> 01:26:30,840
about that or not, it.
Gets you there.
1588
01:26:30,840 --> 01:26:34,600
With two games left to play it's
frustrating though.
1589
01:26:34,600 --> 01:26:36,880
I I get it being frustrated.
I'm not going to be mad at the
1590
01:26:36,880 --> 01:26:39,240
win, but I can be frustrated at
the win.
1591
01:26:39,400 --> 01:26:43,320
You've proved against teams like
Miami and then you go against
1592
01:26:43,320 --> 01:26:45,840
the team and you take a win
against a team like Clemson.
1593
01:26:45,840 --> 01:26:50,240
You prove that you can do it.
Your your consistency and those
1594
01:26:50,480 --> 01:26:55,280
situational plays and coaching
mistakes have cost you a chance
1595
01:26:55,280 --> 01:26:59,680
to play for something more.
But what it tells you is who in
1596
01:26:59,680 --> 01:27:02,880
my room did so much better this
week.
1597
01:27:03,040 --> 01:27:07,360
That fucked up against Syracuse,
who fucked up against man,
1598
01:27:07,440 --> 01:27:09,280
because that's where your notes
need to be taken.
1599
01:27:09,720 --> 01:27:13,080
Oh, he's coaching his A off this
week, but what did he do?
1600
01:27:13,080 --> 01:27:15,040
Look at that week.
He was a little lackadaisical,
1601
01:27:16,320 --> 01:27:19,040
not as enthusiastic, not as
punishing, not as right in
1602
01:27:19,040 --> 01:27:21,080
people's faces.
Clemson week, he got up.
1603
01:27:21,800 --> 01:27:25,760
That's like players too, right?
You get mad at players like he's
1604
01:27:25,760 --> 01:27:28,200
trying to play his best right
now because it's the national
1605
01:27:28,200 --> 01:27:31,000
stage.
Play every game like that.
1606
01:27:33,560 --> 01:27:34,680
All right, sorry.
All right.
1607
01:27:35,160 --> 01:27:38,480
Anything else gentlemen as we
close the door on that and move
1608
01:27:38,480 --> 01:27:43,400
over to some gambling picks?
I'm all set buddy.
1609
01:27:43,640 --> 01:27:47,040
Let's do it.
Let's rock big screeners as we
1610
01:27:47,040 --> 01:27:53,120
get into Week 11, Week 11 and as
always, Brian Siegler kicks us
1611
01:27:53,120 --> 01:27:55,200
off.
Which part of the country are
1612
01:27:55,200 --> 01:27:58,320
you travelling to, Brian?
Hey, we're going back to
1613
01:27:58,320 --> 01:28:01,920
Nashville, baby.
We got the, the, the, the
1614
01:28:01,920 --> 01:28:05,680
Fighting Beamers heading to
Vandy.
1615
01:28:06,000 --> 01:28:10,600
Vandy getting 3 1/2 at home.
And I mean, I've Vandy has
1616
01:28:10,600 --> 01:28:15,200
played to the level of every
single opponent they faced this
1617
01:28:15,200 --> 01:28:17,520
season.
And I don't think that changes.
1618
01:28:18,000 --> 01:28:21,800
I think Vandy with that home
field advantage escapes.
1619
01:28:22,240 --> 01:28:23,600
I think they went out right
here.
1620
01:28:23,600 --> 01:28:27,520
So give me Vandy.
Yep, I'm, I'm with you.
1621
01:28:27,520 --> 01:28:32,160
I think South Carolina is coming
off the biggest win of Shane
1622
01:28:32,160 --> 01:28:35,600
Beamer's career down there.
And I think it's going to be a
1623
01:28:35,600 --> 01:28:38,440
let down game.
And I think it's also exactly
1624
01:28:38,440 --> 01:28:42,640
what you just said.
Brian Vanderbilt shows up every
1625
01:28:42,640 --> 01:28:45,240
week for who they play against.
Doesn't matter who it is, the
1626
01:28:45,240 --> 01:28:48,600
best team or the worst team.
So I think when they're a home
1627
01:28:48,600 --> 01:28:51,680
dog, give me the 3 1/2.
I think Vanderbilt wins outright
1628
01:28:51,680 --> 01:28:55,920
as well.
I actually took I took USC,
1629
01:28:56,480 --> 01:28:57,680
although Curtis makes a good
point.
1630
01:28:57,680 --> 01:28:59,880
That's like they they probably
do for an emotional let down,
1631
01:28:59,880 --> 01:29:02,040
but I don't know, I just, I
think they're, I think they're
1632
01:29:02,040 --> 01:29:04,200
legit.
I think I think, you know, Coach
1633
01:29:04,200 --> 01:29:05,600
Beaver's building up something
pretty special.
1634
01:29:05,600 --> 01:29:07,640
So I think, I think Vanny's due
for a loss too.
1635
01:29:09,920 --> 01:29:14,440
I took Vandy.
They got some voodoo man at that
1636
01:29:14,440 --> 01:29:16,520
field.
So I'm just going to say Vandy.
1637
01:29:18,240 --> 01:29:21,080
Until as long as they're playing
games there while that thing is
1638
01:29:21,080 --> 01:29:22,560
still under construction,
they're going to.
1639
01:29:22,560 --> 01:29:24,400
Have Yeah, some.
Sort of weird advantage.
1640
01:29:24,840 --> 01:29:27,880
Yeah, they're going to keep that
thing under construction for the
1641
01:29:27,880 --> 01:29:29,760
next like 10 years.
Yeah.
1642
01:29:30,440 --> 01:29:33,520
All right, Miranda goes Danny.
And rode along with the rest of
1643
01:29:33,520 --> 01:29:34,160
us there.
Shelton.
1644
01:29:34,160 --> 01:29:35,280
So you're out there on an
island.
1645
01:29:35,600 --> 01:29:38,160
He is on an island.
I'm I'm both in it, that's OK.
1646
01:29:38,200 --> 01:29:39,320
You guys are sheep.
That's OK.
1647
01:29:42,960 --> 01:29:47,080
All righty.
Well, I'm taking us to Atlanta
1648
01:29:47,080 --> 01:29:51,280
where the number four in the
CFP.
1649
01:29:51,400 --> 01:29:53,600
We didn't get to talk about that
tonight because we had to unload
1650
01:29:53,600 --> 01:29:56,600
our emotional baggage from
Virginia Tech, the number 4
1651
01:29:56,600 --> 01:30:01,400
ranked Miami Hurricanes go down
to Georgia Tech Georgia Tech
1652
01:30:01,400 --> 01:30:03,720
getting 11.
Haynes King.
1653
01:30:03,720 --> 01:30:06,080
I I did do some research on
that.
1654
01:30:06,320 --> 01:30:12,520
Still not sure if he's back or
not, but even if he's back, I
1655
01:30:12,520 --> 01:30:16,640
think when you saw last week
Miami starts putting the gears.
1656
01:30:16,840 --> 01:30:20,240
Duke has a good defense and when
they start putting the gears
1657
01:30:20,240 --> 01:30:25,000
down, you see it.
It's like they do not miss when
1658
01:30:25,000 --> 01:30:28,040
they're on offense.
They are going to score and
1659
01:30:28,040 --> 01:30:30,840
they're going to score a lot.
I think it's going to be an
1660
01:30:30,840 --> 01:30:37,360
entertaining game.
Give me 4528 Miami.
1661
01:30:39,960 --> 01:30:41,240
Yeah, Curtis, I'm with you
there.
1662
01:30:41,720 --> 01:30:44,080
I think Miami's just got too
much offense.
1663
01:30:44,600 --> 01:30:48,840
Even if King is able to go, I
don't think Georgia Tech's gonna
1664
01:30:48,840 --> 01:30:50,520
be able to keep up with that
Miami offense.
1665
01:30:50,520 --> 01:30:53,680
So I think the Hurricanes will
win by about two touchdowns
1666
01:30:53,680 --> 01:30:56,880
here.
Shell, I think, I feel like
1667
01:30:56,880 --> 01:31:00,080
Miami's due for a sloppy game.
They'll still win but I think
1668
01:31:00,640 --> 01:31:03,360
King with her a couple dumb
picks and maybe GTO surprising
1669
01:31:03,360 --> 01:31:07,680
people a little bit.
All right, I'm, I'm going Miami.
1670
01:31:11,320 --> 01:31:14,920
See, is he an island again?
Nope.
1671
01:31:15,240 --> 01:31:17,400
He's not joining him this week,
right Is joining him on this
1672
01:31:17,400 --> 01:31:19,640
one.
Sticking with the the rest of
1673
01:31:19,640 --> 01:31:23,480
the fellows here, all righty.
Shelton Moss, you have the next
1674
01:31:23,480 --> 01:31:26,200
one, Sir.
I was super excited about this
1675
01:31:26,200 --> 01:31:30,200
game, the Holy War, a state that
have a a a clear affection for
1676
01:31:30,200 --> 01:31:34,600
in Utah match up of a team in
BYU that's been moving up the
1677
01:31:34,600 --> 01:31:36,520
CIP rankings with each and
everyone.
1678
01:31:37,080 --> 01:31:38,800
I think it's kind of falling off
of Utah, but you know, still
1679
01:31:38,800 --> 01:31:41,160
have some good talent that team.
So I think it'll be an
1680
01:31:41,160 --> 01:31:42,760
interesting game.
I'm going to take Utah.
1681
01:31:42,760 --> 01:31:44,880
I think they'll be motivated in
a big rivalry game.
1682
01:31:44,880 --> 01:31:47,600
I don't know whatever what
trophy they call it, but
1683
01:31:47,600 --> 01:31:49,560
whatever trophy it is, they'll
they'll keep it in Salt Lake
1684
01:31:49,560 --> 01:31:54,120
City.
I dig that and I'm riding with
1685
01:31:54,120 --> 01:31:57,880
you there, Sheldon.
I think this does come down to a
1686
01:31:57,880 --> 01:32:00,720
field goal there at the end.
But I think that, you know, 4
1687
01:32:00,720 --> 01:32:04,240
points at home, this type of
rivalry, just a little too rich
1688
01:32:04,240 --> 01:32:05,720
for my blood.
So give me Utah.
1689
01:32:07,040 --> 01:32:10,200
All right, first of all, they
play for the beehive boot in the
1690
01:32:10,200 --> 01:32:13,520
Holy War.
That's beehive boot.
1691
01:32:13,520 --> 01:32:16,680
Everybody looked at one of those
interesting things.
1692
01:32:18,200 --> 01:32:22,960
BYU ranked 9th in the CFP.
Y'all can see they would be the
1693
01:32:22,960 --> 01:32:25,400
four seed.
They would get a buy if things
1694
01:32:25,400 --> 01:32:28,480
hold out.
But in this one, being in Salt
1695
01:32:28,480 --> 01:32:30,800
Lake City, being at Utah, Utah
four and four.
1696
01:32:31,040 --> 01:32:33,440
By the way, you want to talk
about a team with expectations
1697
01:32:33,440 --> 01:32:38,040
that have fell flat?
Utah preseason top ten now 500.
1698
01:32:38,320 --> 01:32:40,840
Y'all imagine if we were ranked
10th and we were five and four
1699
01:32:41,400 --> 01:32:44,080
y'all, Y'all thinking hours long
would have done tonight?
1700
01:32:44,080 --> 01:32:45,920
Oh no, we would have been going
for two just.
1701
01:32:45,920 --> 01:32:48,280
A What if you was ranked 10th
and you were one in seven?
1702
01:32:48,600 --> 01:32:50,120
It's not, yeah, it's not FSU
rock.
1703
01:32:50,120 --> 01:32:54,240
Bottom it ain't FSU rock bottom,
but still it they should have
1704
01:32:54,240 --> 01:32:56,920
been better, but I'm kind of
with Brian.
1705
01:32:56,920 --> 01:32:59,040
I think I'll think Utah with the
points.
1706
01:32:59,080 --> 01:33:06,280
I think BYU probably sneaks it
out the tally.
1707
01:33:06,280 --> 01:33:08,720
What are you thinking, man?
I'm going to take BYU, man.
1708
01:33:09,800 --> 01:33:15,240
I just think, you know, they're
playing good ball and Utah is
1709
01:33:15,240 --> 01:33:18,320
not.
So it's going to be a holy war
1710
01:33:18,320 --> 01:33:23,120
and BYU is going to be on the
side of the Lord or whatever
1711
01:33:23,120 --> 01:33:26,280
they, whatever they, their
version of the Lord all.
1712
01:33:28,600 --> 01:33:33,880
Right, we got Miranda taking
Utah, Jason, Ron with Tally
1713
01:33:34,280 --> 01:33:38,760
saying go Cougars, go Cougars.
Oh, Tally, Tally.
1714
01:33:39,760 --> 01:33:41,720
Oh, you showed me what?
Go ahead.
1715
01:33:41,720 --> 01:33:46,160
Let's talk about it.
Alabama, LSU, man, it is always,
1716
01:33:46,240 --> 01:33:49,880
always a good game of a good
rivalry game here.
1717
01:33:50,520 --> 01:33:52,720
Everybody gets together down
here for that game.
1718
01:33:52,720 --> 01:33:55,480
It's, you know, similar to the
Iron Bowl.
1719
01:33:56,320 --> 01:34:01,040
Those games used to be like
knock down drag outs 6 to 9,
1720
01:34:01,600 --> 01:34:04,360
three to six games between
Alabama and LSU.
1721
01:34:04,640 --> 01:34:08,440
Might have times changed where
the offenses are different, but
1722
01:34:09,000 --> 01:34:14,360
just because it is going to LSUI
think that LSU is going to pull
1723
01:34:14,360 --> 01:34:16,920
this game out.
I think they probably beat
1724
01:34:16,920 --> 01:34:19,240
Alabama by about 7 is what I
would think.
1725
01:34:19,800 --> 01:34:21,840
By the way, LSU is getting the
points, Brian.
1726
01:34:22,840 --> 01:34:29,320
LSU is a home dog on that one.
And what about you, Brian?
1727
01:34:30,480 --> 01:34:32,360
Did I put it in here wrong?
That's yeah, you put it, you
1728
01:34:32,360 --> 01:34:33,360
flip-flopped.
That's fine.
1729
01:34:33,560 --> 01:34:35,480
We can correct it.
Yeah, that's my.
1730
01:34:35,560 --> 01:34:39,680
It's all right.
Yeah, that's why I was riding
1731
01:34:39,680 --> 01:34:43,640
with Alabama here.
I, I, I think Alabama is going
1732
01:34:43,640 --> 01:34:45,320
to going to win this by at least
a touchdown all.
1733
01:34:46,960 --> 01:34:48,960
Right.
I'm going with tally with this
1734
01:34:48,960 --> 01:34:53,040
one.
I think LSU is, I think after
1735
01:34:53,040 --> 01:34:55,840
the loss to A and MI think they
bounced back.
1736
01:34:55,840 --> 01:35:00,600
This isn't the Alabama of old
being at Death Valley at night.
1737
01:35:00,600 --> 01:35:02,680
I think that's enough.
I think, Kyle, I think you're
1738
01:35:02,680 --> 01:35:04,160
about right.
I think I think a touchdown's
1739
01:35:04,160 --> 01:35:06,640
about right.
And probably like a 3138 game is
1740
01:35:07,000 --> 01:35:08,640
going to be fun to watch
Saturday night.
1741
01:35:09,280 --> 01:35:13,000
And I think that with that, that
effectively is going to keep out
1742
01:35:13,280 --> 01:35:15,080
Bama's not making a playoff
after this game.
1743
01:35:17,360 --> 01:35:20,840
Yeah, I'm taking, I'm, I'm
taking Bama.
1744
01:35:20,840 --> 01:35:23,240
They're kind of for bye week.
I think they're going to stop
1745
01:35:23,240 --> 01:35:25,200
them honestly.
I mean, not, not too big a win,
1746
01:35:25,200 --> 01:35:27,200
but they'll come out and they'll
they'll handle business.
1747
01:35:27,960 --> 01:35:30,520
All right, this is an
elimination game, pretty much.
1748
01:35:32,560 --> 01:35:35,040
One of these teams will not make
the playoff, whoever loses this
1749
01:35:35,040 --> 01:35:36,440
game.
So there's tally.
1750
01:35:36,440 --> 01:35:42,240
We're together, Miranda with us.
We got a split house here on
1751
01:35:42,240 --> 01:35:46,880
this game.
All righty Miranda is going out
1752
01:35:46,880 --> 01:35:49,560
to Lubbock where again we got
another home dog.
1753
01:35:49,560 --> 01:35:52,280
Texas Tech land 3 1/2 to
Colorado.
1754
01:35:52,600 --> 01:35:55,600
Colorado a sneaky 6 and two
right now.
1755
01:35:55,600 --> 01:36:00,280
Texas Tech coming off the big
upset over Iowa State last week.
1756
01:36:00,800 --> 01:36:03,040
Brian Siegler, How do you see
this from playing out?
1757
01:36:04,160 --> 01:36:06,200
I mean, you got to give Dion
some credit.
1758
01:36:06,200 --> 01:36:09,200
He's accomplished probably what
the goal of this team was eight
1759
01:36:09,200 --> 01:36:13,080
games into the year, sitting
there at 6:00 and 2:00.
1760
01:36:13,080 --> 01:36:16,680
So I'm I'm riding with the the
Buffaloes here.
1761
01:36:18,680 --> 01:36:20,320
Yep, I I'm right with you on
that.
1762
01:36:20,320 --> 01:36:23,840
I think Texas Tech it's again to
get up again.
1763
01:36:24,520 --> 01:36:26,360
I don't think they'll do it even
at home.
1764
01:36:27,400 --> 01:36:29,920
I I just don't I just don't see
this happening.
1765
01:36:30,040 --> 01:36:32,040
Give me Colorado.
I like 3 1/2.
1766
01:36:33,080 --> 01:36:35,560
Man, that color offense is above
star right now.
1767
01:36:35,560 --> 01:36:37,280
I don't think they're going to
stop anytime soon.
1768
01:36:37,360 --> 01:36:39,240
I think they're going to going
to go to 7:00 and 2:00.
1769
01:36:41,320 --> 01:36:46,480
Yeah, give me Colorado as well.
I've not watched one play from
1770
01:36:46,480 --> 01:36:50,760
Texas Tech is mainly the only
reason that I say it Colorado.
1771
01:36:50,760 --> 01:36:55,880
But I do think Colorado wins.
And we are rolling as a.
1772
01:36:56,000 --> 01:36:58,840
Oh man, well, we didn't put the
voodoo curse right there.
1773
01:36:58,840 --> 01:37:02,480
Colorado going to lose about 20
points now because we all rode
1774
01:37:02,480 --> 01:37:05,280
together on this one.
All righty.
1775
01:37:05,520 --> 01:37:09,160
Last but not least, as always,
let's end with the song Our
1776
01:37:09,160 --> 01:37:11,800
Music Man with Michigan,
Indiana.
1777
01:37:23,000 --> 01:37:32,080
When I was born in a small town
and I lived in a small town, I'd
1778
01:37:32,200 --> 01:37:36,240
probably die.
A small town, small home,
1779
01:37:37,960 --> 01:37:43,720
community at home afraid.
This is a small town where
1780
01:37:45,880 --> 01:37:51,000
parents live in the same small
town, my God's.
1781
01:37:51,040 --> 01:37:58,560
A small town without a little
lava to the thinking hope.
1782
01:38:12,680 --> 01:38:15,240
Hey folks, it's Jamie.
Hat to a little John Mellencamp.
1783
01:38:15,240 --> 01:38:17,160
He's one of Indiana's favorite
sons.
1784
01:38:17,160 --> 01:38:19,960
And that's where I'm headed for
this week's edition of Guitar
1785
01:38:19,960 --> 01:38:23,560
Licks and Gambling Picks.
Michigan travels to Indiana on
1786
01:38:23,560 --> 01:38:27,280
Saturday and the Hoosiers have
been flat out rolling this year.
1787
01:38:27,480 --> 01:38:29,800
They are 9 and O, and they're
eight and one against the
1788
01:38:29,800 --> 01:38:33,200
spread.
So I'm going to take Indiana -12
1789
01:38:33,200 --> 01:38:35,920
1/2 points this Saturday against
Michigan.
1790
01:38:40,040 --> 01:38:43,720
Though I cannot feel for where
these I come.
1791
01:38:44,000 --> 01:38:47,240
From my head.
Forgive the people who really
1792
01:38:47,360 --> 01:38:51,360
love me when I keep myself here
in a small town and people
1793
01:38:51,360 --> 01:38:54,960
letting me Jesus will want to be
in.
1794
01:38:59,120 --> 01:39:14,240
Yeah.
I can't believe I'm saying it,
1795
01:39:14,240 --> 01:39:19,240
being a Sycamore and all.
But go Hoosiers. -12 1/2 versus
1796
01:39:19,240 --> 01:39:20,680
Michigan.
See you next week.
1797
01:39:23,600 --> 01:39:27,240
All righty, there we go, Jason
taking Indiana there.
1798
01:39:27,240 --> 01:39:29,480
John Mellencamp.
I'm surprised he did not do Jack
1799
01:39:29,480 --> 01:39:31,960
and Diane so he could, say,
sucking on chili dogs outside.
1800
01:39:32,000 --> 01:39:35,520
Tasty bees.
We don't need all that sucking
1801
01:39:35,520 --> 01:39:38,240
on chili dogs, homie.
Hey, if they hey, if they keep
1802
01:39:38,240 --> 01:39:41,240
winning, he going probably put
the Ohio State game on there and
1803
01:39:41,240 --> 01:39:42,800
he might do another Mellencamp
song.
1804
01:39:42,800 --> 01:39:45,200
Let's move on.
He's taking Indiana.
1805
01:39:45,200 --> 01:39:47,080
He is laying a boat.
Ton of points.
1806
01:39:47,320 --> 01:39:49,960
What are you doing, Brian?
And that's the problem with this
1807
01:39:49,960 --> 01:39:52,600
one, man 12 1/2 is just a little
too rich for my blood.
1808
01:39:52,600 --> 01:39:58,040
I think Michigan keeps it close
and Hoosiers win, but it's
1809
01:39:58,040 --> 01:40:01,080
tight.
Yep, I, I I'm with you on that.
1810
01:40:01,080 --> 01:40:04,040
I think Michigan's going to get
up for this 112 1/2 too much and
1811
01:40:04,040 --> 01:40:05,840
we caught the line early at
things up.
1812
01:40:05,840 --> 01:40:10,160
I think it's 14 now.
I'm going to check out on the on
1813
01:40:10,160 --> 01:40:11,960
the book real quick, but I.
Think it needs to.
1814
01:40:12,040 --> 01:40:13,840
It needs to be at least like 9
1/2.
1815
01:40:13,840 --> 01:40:17,520
Before I would have been.
Man, I'm telling you, Sheldon
1816
01:40:17,520 --> 01:40:20,200
Moth.
Yeah, India is definitely going
1817
01:40:20,200 --> 01:40:23,120
to win, but Michigan will do
just enough to cover.
1818
01:40:23,120 --> 01:40:25,040
I think they've got they've got
enough talent to keep a little
1819
01:40:25,040 --> 01:40:26,880
bit close even though they're
having a big down year
1820
01:40:26,880 --> 01:40:29,760
obviously.
Huge down your tally.
1821
01:40:30,240 --> 01:40:32,920
Yamaga, Michigan.
Mine is too big.
1822
01:40:34,240 --> 01:40:37,600
Too big, too big, man.
Everybody's against the music
1823
01:40:37,600 --> 01:40:38,920
man this week.
Everybody gets.
1824
01:40:38,920 --> 01:40:41,320
And by the way, that line did
hit the 14.
1825
01:40:42,640 --> 01:40:45,760
Wow man.
All right, so that a.
1826
01:40:46,040 --> 01:40:48,880
Lot of money's coming in on them
because they are on a hot streak
1827
01:40:48,880 --> 01:40:50,240
so.
I they are and they're blowing
1828
01:40:50,480 --> 01:40:54,960
and they're blowing teams out.
They're putting teams to bed, by
1829
01:40:54,960 --> 01:40:56,880
the way.
It's, it's the, the narrative in
1830
01:40:56,880 --> 01:40:58,960
the last few years, too, has
also flipped.
1831
01:40:58,960 --> 01:41:02,560
You can hire an old coach.
You can hire somebody in their
1832
01:41:02,560 --> 01:41:07,120
60s and you can do shit.
Signeti's 62 years old.
1833
01:41:08,840 --> 01:41:12,760
So I I I am huh?
He's got the juice.
1834
01:41:13,080 --> 01:41:16,240
He got the juice all right.
Anything else y'all want to add
1835
01:41:16,240 --> 01:41:18,240
before we get a wrap on this
thing tonight?
1836
01:41:20,480 --> 01:41:22,760
I got nothing, man.
Just go play.
1837
01:41:23,160 --> 01:41:24,720
Just go play football on
Saturday.
1838
01:41:25,560 --> 01:41:27,240
Go play football.
It's 330.
1839
01:41:27,240 --> 01:41:30,040
All right, well, that is going

01:43:01,360 --> 01:43:03,040
but as always, let's go.
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:46,560
Music.
Welcome back to the Delmgree
2
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:49,400
Corner podcast, a part of the
College Huddle network along
3
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,320
with my partner, Brian Siegler,
Jonathan Talley and Shelton
4
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:54,320
Moss.
I am Curtis Wilson and as
5
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:58,640
always, we will you by Doctor
Jeremy Kell down at Kells Family
6
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,320
Pharmacy, your friendly
neighborhood pharmacy located at
7
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,560
three O 1 S Main St. in
Blacksburg.
8
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:09,080
And before we get everything
started tonight, because we got
9
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,880
obviously a lot to unload.
We have been preaching the last
10
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:15,080
three weeks.
We had something to give away.
11
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,560
We've been asking people put
1999 in the chat.
12
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:22,000
Well over 100 people did that
and subscribe to the YouTube
13
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:28,280
channel and earlier today,
Brian, via the magic of
14
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,520
everything online nowadays,
because you can put names in a
15
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,000
thing, they'll pull it out.
We have our winner.
16
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,360
I can throw the process out
there real quick.
17
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:39,480
It's a pain, yeah.
All right, so I gathered all the
18
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:43,760
people that commented.
I got them assigned a number.
19
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:49,040
I had AI pick a number for me,
gave them the numbers that we
20
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:53,680
got, had them pick a number,
trace that back to the name and
21
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:54,800
Curtis is going to read it for
you.
22
00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:58,360
The name of the winner and we
hope you are listening tonight
23
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,720
because dude, jump in the
comments and we can start trying
24
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:05,800
to get in touch with you.
It is a Jonathan Harris 8975.
25
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:13,520
Jonathan Harris 8975.
We appreciate you listening.
26
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:15,720
Not only that, but subscribing
as well.
27
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:18,280
We will ask you to get in touch
with us.
28
00:02:18,640 --> 00:02:20,840
Brian, what's going to be the
easiest way?
29
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,560
Hey, Twitter is probably going
to be the best.
30
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,080
Hit us up at Twitter if you
can't do that.
31
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,800
If you don't have a Twitter,
best is going to be e-mail us
32
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:36,520
admin@boundarycornervt.com.
Yep, big congratulations to
33
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:41,080
Jonathan there.
And we are a four man crew
34
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:45,480
tonight.
We got a lot to unload and
35
00:02:45,640 --> 00:02:47,280
usually we start with tell the
truth.
36
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:51,320
I I had to talk to these guys.
I said we we can't tell the
37
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,480
truth because I think tell the
truth is going to take a little
38
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,920
while tonight.
I'm just being dead serious.
39
00:02:55,920 --> 00:02:58,440
I don't think we're going to be
here for four or five minutes
40
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,240
doing Tell the Truth on each
section because we got a shit
41
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,600
ton to unload about what's going
on with the program right now.
42
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,520
So we are going to start kind of
out of routine.
43
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,160
We're going to start with Know
the Enemy.
44
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,640
We need to talk about Clemson
real quick because that game is
45
00:03:14,640 --> 00:03:18,320
Saturday at 3:30 at Lane
Stadium.
46
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,600
So we're going to jump into that
right now.
47
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:22,440
We're going to talk a little bit
about their players.
48
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,800
Brian did some tape review.
Let's start with the offense.
49
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:30,080
Brian led by Garrett Riley,
obviously from the Riley family
50
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:34,160
of offense.
What's he running and what what
51
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:38,480
are we looking to see Saturday
on at 3:30?
52
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:43,000
Yeah, looking at their offense,
I mean this is the fast-paced
53
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,280
kind of run.
First Air Raid esque system
54
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,360
emphasizes aggressive play
calls.
55
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,160
They run a lot of 11 personnel
and they have a a really big
56
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:55,360
focus on kind of establishing
that run so they can get really
57
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,720
aggressive with their with their
past play calls.
58
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:03,960
All right, and obviously led by
you know four and five star
59
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,480
quarterback Cade Clubnick got
off in Texas.
60
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,520
Solid number so far this year
with Clubnick.
61
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:16,519
If y'all haven't seen, you know,
21 touchdowns, 3 picks well over
62
00:04:16,519 --> 00:04:20,920
65 or just over 65% completion
right at 2000 yards.
63
00:04:21,959 --> 00:04:24,760
And if you look at his Russian
numbers, like this is not like
64
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:28,960
Kyle fucking McCord last week.
Cade's got some wheels.
65
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,360
Y'all seen it.
He averages about five times
66
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,480
every time he takes off.
So what?
67
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,560
What else do we see from him,
Brian?
68
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,280
And then guys, anything y'all
want to chime in with after
69
00:04:38,280 --> 00:04:39,520
Brian gives his little
breakdown?
70
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,040
Yeah.
I mean, looking at Cade, man,
71
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,560
he's a yeah, he definitely dual
threat, kind of a pass first
72
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:50,280
dual threat quarterback, has
that gunslinger mentality.
73
00:04:50,280 --> 00:04:53,880
So we'll sling it in the similar
way we saw with McCord last
74
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:57,320
week, but definitely has more of
a threat to take off in the
75
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:01,200
running game then then what we
saw from McCord in Syracuse.
76
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:05,240
This is a guy that can make all
the throws, does really well
77
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,560
with with slinging the football
around, can make some things a
78
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,760
little bit off platform as well.
Probably not as bread and
79
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,120
butter, but definitely not a not
a weakness either.
80
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:18,040
He progresses through those
reads pretty well, especially
81
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,600
for, you know, Mark, marginally
experienced collegiate
82
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,720
quarterback at this point.
But you know, thinking about
83
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,280
gunslinger mentality, he can't
force throws, especially when
84
00:05:27,280 --> 00:05:30,840
he's under duress and especially
when he's kind of out there big
85
00:05:30,840 --> 00:05:32,960
play hunting.
Like a lot of times he'll try to
86
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:34,760
make the big play instead of the
right play.
87
00:05:37,280 --> 00:05:40,080
Tally Sheldon anything on
clubnet with y'all seen?
88
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,280
I know y'all watch games.
Sheldon, I know you probably
89
00:05:42,280 --> 00:05:47,440
looked at some data points.
Yeah, PFF really likes him, you
90
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,640
know, even more so than some of
the overall efficiency metrics
91
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,760
would suggest.
Now why is that?
92
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:56,320
I mean, I would say, you know a
couple things pretty solid as a
93
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:57,640
runner.
So that's part of it.
94
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,400
Also his his turn around worthy
play percentage is pretty low,
95
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:02,400
less than 2%, which is pretty
good.
96
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:06,400
So he's avoided the disastrous,
disastrous plays overall in the
97
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,120
season for him, 21 to three
touch interception ratio.
98
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:10,840
So he's been pretty, pretty
efficient with the football the
99
00:06:10,840 --> 00:06:14,280
entire season, really.
Yep, same thing I was going to
100
00:06:14,280 --> 00:06:18,680
say.
I mean, 21 touchdowns, 3
101
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:23,160
interceptions, you got to get
some pressure on them.
102
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,280
Definitely got to get some
pressure on them, but the damn
103
00:06:27,280 --> 00:06:30,800
pain in the ass thing about them
as y'all seen is they've got a
104
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:36,680
damn good running game as well.
If y'all hadn't seen Phil Moffa,
105
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:42,640
Phil again, Clemson somehow
still recruiting at a high
106
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:45,280
level.
Y'all like I was telling them,
107
00:06:45,280 --> 00:06:48,240
how did they lose to Louisville?
I'm trying to figure this out
108
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:51,800
because every single time I'm
looking up guys and ratings, top
109
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:55,160
25 player, top 50 player, top
200 player.
110
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,400
Oh, he's one of the low ones.
He's top 300.
111
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,960
How did they lose to a
Louisville team at home?
112
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,920
But let's talk about Mafa.
He was a top 200 player, 4 star
113
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:12,960
guy already this year.
You know, well over 800 yards,
114
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:17,400
probably well on his way to 1000
yards, just about 6 1/2 a carry.
115
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,160
Brian, what else are you seeing
from him?
116
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:25,400
Because he's a big boy at that.
Yeah, he's a bruiser between the
117
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:28,520
tackles, man.
You know, kind of a little bit
118
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,280
similar to tune in terms of
after, after contact, really
119
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,800
good after contact, good vision
between the tackles.
120
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,280
And you know, honestly, when we
look at our defense kind of
121
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,520
areas that we've struggled,
that's where he's good in
122
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:44,920
between the tackles, you know,
turning some some plays that
123
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,400
should be a one or two yard gain
into those 8 or 10 yard gains,
124
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:52,240
keeping the sticks moving.
I'd call him an above average
125
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,440
receiver out of the backfield.
He's not great, but he's
126
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,080
definitely serviceable in that
capacity.
127
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:00,400
Probably the only weakness in
this game.
128
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,680
He kind of lacks super high top
end speed and he's not really
129
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:07,360
that elusive in the open field.
So, you know, he's not
130
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,520
necessarily a home run threat,
but he's a guy that's going to
131
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:10,960
just grind you out the whole
game.
132
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,840
Sally Shelton.
Anything y'all seen from him
133
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:20,720
watching or nothing?
Nothing.
134
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:25,760
Right.
Right now we trying to hold
135
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,600
emotions in y'all, because if
once they explode in a little
136
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:30,520
while here, it ain't no going
back.
137
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,000
That's why I knew we couldn't do
this later, because once the
138
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:34,880
motions exploded and they are
going to explode.
139
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,720
All right, Brian, I looked at
the wide receiver room.
140
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,440
They don't have that stand out
person.
141
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,440
So for so many years Clemson
always had to stood out person,
142
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,720
whether it was Hopkins, you
know, whether it was Sammy
143
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,080
Watkins either the years where
was Hunter Renfro?
144
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,720
You knew Hunter Renfro was like
that guy.
145
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:56,360
So you looked at the tape, who
really popped to you over the
146
00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,680
when you were reviewing the bat,
the tapes there?
147
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,920
So looking at what they're
doing, looking at kind of what's
148
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,120
hurt us a lot, My eyes kind of
went a little bit of different
149
00:09:07,560 --> 00:09:10,400
way here.
So there's no real wide receiver
150
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,800
that's jumping out there.
But stat wise, play wise,
151
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,240
they're kind of just guys in, in
my opinion, it's it's it's kind
152
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:20,760
of riding the hot hand.
But in terms of looking at what
153
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,720
it's kind of hurt our defense a
lot this year.
154
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:28,520
I looked at Jake Brenningstool
tight ends have really given us
155
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:32,480
fits, especially on those kind
of plays that have kept the
156
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,040
sticks moving, kept the defense
on the field for longer than we
157
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,640
like.
So he's a guy that catches the
158
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,760
ball well, blocks well, they use
him as a decoy.
159
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,880
He can do a little bit of
everything that you want from a
160
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,400
tight end from a passing game
perspective.
161
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:51,120
So he's he's a guy that, you
know, he may not go out there
162
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,880
and, and, and catch for, you
know, 80 plus yards, but he
163
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:58,120
could be a guy that burns us on
a a handful of key first downs
164
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:03,120
that keeps them on the field.
And obviously that's been a kind
165
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:07,200
of an issue kind of all year in
the the the losses is extending
166
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,760
drives like a drive should be
dead gone.
167
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:13,840
They should be putting the ball.
And obviously that that does
168
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:17,000
worry Sheldon Valley.
Anything on Jake or any of the
169
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,800
receiving threats?
Yeah, 4 star.
170
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:24,200
You know how 4 star low five
star guy to tidy in?
171
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:29,080
He's very good.
You know, if they do anything
172
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,280
well, they're kind of running
that little dump play to them.
173
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,760
We're going to have to, we're
going to adjust really quickly
174
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:39,480
because he can catch, he can
move, he can run a 6/6, 2:50
175
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,840
somewhere around there.
He's got experience because he's
176
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,480
a senior, so we'll have our
hands full.
177
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:52,160
John, anything from you?
Yeah, Brian Wesco ranks pretty
178
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,920
highly. 17.5 average average
yards per reception.
179
00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,760
Only two TDs, but typically when
you catch the ball it tends to
180
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,440
go for a pretty big game.
Yeah, I do see that.
181
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,000
Only a couple touchdowns, but
again, it's that over the top
182
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:08,560
play and again with you have
Mafa, you know, up front there,
183
00:11:08,560 --> 00:11:10,400
keep pounding you.
I know somebody threw it in
184
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,120
there about him getting better.
It usually is the same with the
185
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:14,800
big guys that always goes like
that.
186
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,240
All right, let's flip over.
Let's hit a little bit of their
187
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:21,720
defense led by Wes Goodwin, who
I was reading after he got
188
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,320
torched last week.
He might be getting fired.
189
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,600
I know Dabo don't like firing
his people, but what's goodwill
190
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,880
maybe getting fired in a few
weeks here if you don't get crap
191
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,360
together, probably by the end,
if they lose South Carolina,
192
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,080
he's gone.
He's gone.
193
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:38,760
I'll say that they lose South
Carolina.
194
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:44,600
But Brian, what's he running and
and what are they?
195
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:47,040
What is their big philosophy on
the defensive side of the ball?
196
00:11:47,560 --> 00:11:49,440
Yeah.
I mean, it's a, it's a hybrid 43
197
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:50,960
defense.
I mean, we're kind of looking at
198
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:55,600
something we're very familiar
with this week, emphasis on
199
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:59,000
stopping the run, letting that
defensive line pin their ears
200
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,640
back in those early, those late
downs once they get you off the
201
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,920
off the schedule there.
So that's really their game
202
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:07,920
plan.
They've got a bunch of horses up
203
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:09,880
front that can really do that
very well.
204
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:11,760
And I'm sure we're going to talk
about them here shortly.
205
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,760
Yeah, we are going to talk about
them because that was the first
206
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:19,160
thing like when I looked at
where their their their run stop
207
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:23,840
was and I started looking at the
horses up front Demonte,
208
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:28,640
Capehart, Peyton Page just
jumped off And the first of all
209
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:32,840
super high ranked guys when they
came out one in 2020 with
210
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:37,040
Capehart, 2021 Peyton Page, if
that name sounds familiar, he's
211
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:40,080
from down in Greensboro.
I do believe for a while the
212
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:41,800
Hokies were in the mix for
Paige.
213
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:43,320
Tally, you're more the expert on
that.
214
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,880
But I feel like we were in the
mix for Paige for a little while
215
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,280
coming out of Greensboro.
Obviously didn't land in both
216
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:52,280
those guys.
You know, top 247 players,
217
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:59,840
Capehart effectively basically a
top 50 player, a top 10
218
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:02,960
defensive tackle and tally.
They ain't small by any means,
219
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:04,840
are they?
No, Heck no.
220
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,480
And you got size all across the
board.
221
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,280
You know, even when you feel
like Clemson's having a down
222
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,800
year, they still have talent all
over the field.
223
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,360
So when you talk about all these
high-ranking guys, they're
224
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:21,360
high-ranking for a reason.
I think NIL has spread it some
225
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:25,600
of the wealth out with some
players and transfers and stuff.
226
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,560
But schools like Clemson are
still going to be really
227
00:13:28,560 --> 00:13:32,320
talented, really talented
schools, and you have to out
228
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:37,680
coach them to beat them.
Brian, what did you see on both
229
00:13:37,680 --> 00:13:40,480
these guys?
You know, where are they playing
230
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,200
as far as is one of three tech
or we got a shade one eye.
231
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:46,480
What, what are what are we
seeing from these guys from your
232
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:50,080
tape observations?
Yeah, when we look at at the
233
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,560
tape, the more traditional 3
technique is going to be Peyton,
234
00:13:52,560 --> 00:13:54,200
Paige.
He's a lot more comfortable with
235
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:55,680
that position.
They will kind of move these
236
00:13:55,680 --> 00:13:57,400
guys around a little bit, but
he's definitely more
237
00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:01,080
comfortable. 3 technique, you
know, Speaking of Paige in
238
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:05,200
particular, technician, high
motor, really good, good
239
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,240
quickness at the snap of the
football.
240
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:11,480
Probably when you look at at
weaknesses, probably a little
241
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:14,040
underpowered for an interior
guy.
242
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:19,240
He's he's got what you would
call a weight room strength, but
243
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:23,200
it doesn't always translate onto
the field like you would like it
244
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,600
to see.
So you kind of get can get
245
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,360
caught up hand fighting instead
of shedding kind of in the
246
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,400
interior there.
But he's definitely more the the
247
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,080
three technique.
When we look at we look at Cape
248
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:37,720
art, kind of the opposite,
exceptionally strong at the
249
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,560
point of attack.
I mean this dude is strength
250
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:44,440
personified but still has great
athleticism for that size.
251
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,520
Plays with good leverage, really
good at shedding those blocks.
252
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,400
Probably the only thing that he
struggles with is, you know, pad
253
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,360
level.
Playing a little bit too tall in
254
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:57,160
the middle there.
All right.
255
00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,880
And there was one other guy.
Golly, I lost his name.
256
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,880
I thought I had it wrote down.
They did have another pretty big
257
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:05,480
guy.
Occasionally they'll line up at
258
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:09,560
the end.
If I find it, I'll get it to
259
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:11,120
you.
But I want to talk about the
260
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:13,800
edge because obviously we know
there's a problem.
261
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,760
People already putting it in the
chat and everything.
262
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:21,760
TJ Parker is obviously their big
stud, there is no doubt.
263
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,720
And that's fine.
You got one stud, it's OK, but
264
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:33,120
you can do things.
But Brian, you know, Tally, why
265
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:36,600
don't you talk on TJ Parker for
in a second here because he
266
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,920
comes from down your way.
But we got TJ.
267
00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:42,480
We know he's all world huge
recruit tallies.
268
00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:43,840
Don't break that info down in a
second.
269
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:48,240
But who's the other guy that may
give us some problems Saturday?
270
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:55,160
Peter Woods man, still a young
guy, kind of a tweener.
271
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:59,720
D tackle DN they they line him
up a little bit of everywhere,
272
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:03,480
but he's a guy that they played
a lot more at D in this year.
273
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:09,600
Quick off the snap, can bend the
edge surprisingly well and has
274
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,040
incredible stamina for a bigger
guy.
275
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:16,920
And you know, also for a bigger
guy, great motor and violent
276
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:19,120
hands.
So he's he's a bigger in he's
277
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,080
not going to be a guy that's
going to go out there and just
278
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,480
absolutely, you know, speed rush
you off the edge.
279
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:25,840
But he's got a lot of lot of
tools out there.
280
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,800
And like I said, he's got that
position flexibility where they
281
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:30,520
can slide him inside when they
need to.
282
00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:35,560
Tally, What about TJ Parker,
man?
283
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:37,640
I mean, he is from down in
Alabama.
284
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:40,720
Is that a name that you are
familiar with?
285
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:42,680
You know, before he even got to
Clemson?
286
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,720
Oh, yeah, TJ Parker is, I think
we talked about somebody last
287
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:51,920
week from from Phoenix City is
where he's from, Central,
288
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:56,000
Central, Phoenix City High
School, always a powerhouse.
289
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,680
I mean, they've got many, many
state championships.
290
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:00,640
They play in the biggest
division in Alabama.
291
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,800
Very, very talented play.
I mean, he had offers from
292
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,720
everywhere.
I think he kind of got down to
293
00:17:07,079 --> 00:17:10,040
Penn State and Clemson and
Alabama or something like that.
294
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:18,240
So Uber talented guy, you know,
great, great body size, was a
295
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:24,160
monster in high school.
You know, just you see it all
296
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:26,680
over there, you see it all over
their their their roster, you
297
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:28,880
know what I'm saying?
But also what you see over their
298
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:30,720
roster is that they're very
beatable.
299
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,960
You know, with them having these
talented guys, they're they're a
300
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,240
beatable team.
But you know, just staying on on
301
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,720
TJTJ Parker is a is a handful to
deal with.
302
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,880
You know, he's a he's a great
player and very highly ranked
303
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:47,000
out of high school.
Like I said, another five star,
304
00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:50,120
four-star high 4 star, if you
want to say, but may have been
305
00:17:50,120 --> 00:17:52,080
like a 98 somewhere around
there.
306
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:57,640
So very talented kid and you
have to you have to coach the
307
00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:00,000
beat the beat defenses like
that.
308
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,800
I mean, that's all I can say.
But he's he's, he's going to be
309
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,720
a handful.
And real quick and somebody put
310
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:09,120
this put up James's in thing
because yeah, I didn't get a
311
00:18:09,120 --> 00:18:11,000
chance up.
But yeah, that was a good point.
312
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:13,680
Yeah, yeah.
We may not see.
313
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:15,840
Cape No no, Officially ruled
out.
314
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:17,840
Officially ruled out.
Officially ruled out.
315
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,200
Sorry y'all.
We occasionally go to work and
316
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,480
occasionally we don't get to
listen to everything and read
317
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:24,960
everything.
And I got Swanwood work when I
318
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:26,440
got home.
All the kids were here with me.
319
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,000
So yeah, if you hear them in the
background, I'm sorry.
320
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,120
Yeah.
It was announced in Dabos
321
00:18:32,120 --> 00:18:35,200
presser earlier today that
Capehart will not play this
322
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,400
week.
That is a huge loss for them,
323
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:41,440
potentially a huge win for the
Hokies in that sense.
324
00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:43,720
So you might see.
A lot of Williams you might see
325
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:44,720
a lot of.
Williams.
326
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:48,360
Woods maybe sliding inside.
Yeah, so there you go.
327
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:51,280
There you go.
Making Chris laugh out here.
328
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,920
That's a good thing.
I as always, it it's Clemson.
329
00:18:56,400 --> 00:19:00,400
I won't say it Tally, but you
know it who who's the white blue
330
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:01,880
kid?
Because, you know, they got one
331
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,720
and they're the white blue kid.
Man, I mean, the quarterback,
332
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:10,520
whoever, a linebacker, and they
got plenty of them.
333
00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:13,680
This, this going to come in and
they're going to play hard.
334
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:20,200
And again, I, I honestly, I
looked at hardly no Clemson
335
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:23,960
players because whoever lines up
on the field against us, it
336
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:28,040
doesn't matter.
It does not matter because we
337
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:31,480
can play with the best of teams
and we can play down with the
338
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,000
worst of teams.
But it's going to start with us
339
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:37,280
and how we handle things, which
is what we're going to talk
340
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:40,160
about a little later.
Oh yeah, and it's fastly
341
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:43,800
approaching.
But Brian, I know Woody Wood is,
342
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:47,520
is one of them.
He is the white glue guy, but
343
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:50,160
they got another glue guy out
there as well that you liked on
344
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:53,160
tape.
Yeah, I mean, it starts and ends
345
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:57,920
of Barrett Carter, man.
Exceptional athleticism, really
346
00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,760
good change of direction,
sideline to sideline type.
347
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:04,320
Linebacker can do a little bit
of everything.
348
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:07,320
Good against the run, pretty
good in pass coverage.
349
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:11,400
Good Blitzer, high football IQ
guy.
350
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,720
Looking at him probably a bit
undersized, which kind of even,
351
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:19,400
you know, feeds more into the
glue guy aspect of of his game
352
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:22,640
there probably the biggest
weaknesses that he will
353
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,600
occasionally miss some run fits
here and there.
354
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:29,720
But in terms of athleticism and
and just overall ability, he's
355
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:31,560
the guy that kind of holds
everything together on that
356
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,480
defensive side.
All right, Sheldon, you said you
357
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,920
had a couple things you want to
throw in here about the defense.
358
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,400
Well, yeah, and the team is all
so Clemson is not elite at
359
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,680
anyone particular thing, but
they're very well-rounded.
360
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:47,160
So you know, they rank, you
know, mid 20s, high 30s and
361
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,840
pretty much all of the big
advanced statistical categories,
362
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:56,600
defense, EPA per rush allowed,
32nd per drop back 31st.
363
00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:01,120
You know, they're top 35 in EPA
per rush and drop back on
364
00:21:01,120 --> 00:21:03,440
offense as well.
So success rate's pretty good
365
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:05,400
too.
So just a pretty well-rounded
366
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,080
team.
They're not bad at anything.
367
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:11,400
The one set that stands out to
me is they lead the country in
368
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,920
rush rate below expectations.
So in other words, they pass the
369
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,920
ball more frequently than you
would expect based on down a
370
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:19,160
distance.
So they're going to sling the
371
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,160
ball around the yard pretty much
the whole game.
372
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,640
So it's going to obviously put a
lot of stress on Tech's corners,
373
00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:26,600
certainly linebackers, the
safeties.
374
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:28,960
So we'll see how that goes.
But I would say overall, just
375
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,640
just a solid team that does
everything pretty well, just not
376
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,400
necessarily a lead at one
particular thing.
377
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,520
All righty so there it is.
I told y'all we were going to
378
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:42,840
get through this quick.
Ain't as usual where we get a
379
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:46,400
lot more looking at people.
Y'all know Tally?
380
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,480
I love Tally because Tally will
come down sneaky and go watch
381
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:52,560
the extra game film and then pop
in with a couple numbers.
382
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:54,440
It won't going to be that way
this week.
383
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,000
It just won't.
So as y'all know.
384
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:58,640
It's a couple reasons.
It's a couple reasons.
385
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:02,480
For them, oh, it is number.
One, I think not a lot of people
386
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:04,880
need to know who Clemson is.
Right.
387
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:08,320
So I mean, we kind of know who
they are.
388
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:13,840
We see them, they get kind of
plastered up on any key ACC Game
389
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,680
of the week, national media
covers them.
390
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:21,400
If you're just casually
listening to ESPN or Fox or any
391
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:25,840
of those, you're going to get a
decent idea of who the guys are
392
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:29,920
for Clemson.
The other reason is what
393
00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:33,000
happened on Saturday to the
Hokies and how we wanted to give
394
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:38,560
all of us are tell the truth a
little bit more room to breathe
395
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:42,560
this week, if you will.
Because we do need to let it
396
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:44,440
breathe.
And as we go over to tell the
397
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:48,520
truth, we are brought to you by
Count's family pharmacy, your
398
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,200
friendly neighborhood pharmacy,
three O 1 S Main St.
399
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:52,920
Blacksburg.
I'm surprised Jeremy didn't
400
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:55,240
message us want to come on this
week so he could scream and
401
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:58,400
curse as much as Jeremy does.
But we've got to tell the truth
402
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,680
because the Ruth is this week.
We've got a lot to tell about
403
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,120
ourselves and I feel like we do
this once a year.
404
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,320
Obviously, we always do it in
the state of the program, but
405
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:10,880
there's a lot going on when you
lose your fourth game of the
406
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:15,600
year by less than one score.
Virginia Tech has lost four
407
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:19,520
games by less than one score.
I think it's a total combined.
408
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:24,720
Is it 21 four games by 21.22
points?
409
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:30,680
It's 21 because it was 774 and
3:00 and we got to start talking
410
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:32,880
about Coach Fry.
We got to start doing a lot of
411
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,400
stuff so right now this is how
we're going to start.
412
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,000
I want to see it in the comments
as well, because I want to see
413
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:42,120
how the pulse a hokey nation is
going, but here's what I got to
414
00:23:42,120 --> 00:23:47,320
go first of all, I'm going to
start with tally because I'm
415
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:48,920
starting with you Iron Man
let's.
416
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,240
Do it iron.
Man, put pull the mask down.
417
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:57,720
On a scale of one to 10, one
being all in, 10 being
418
00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:02,440
completely out, Where are you on
coach Brent Pry as it stands?
419
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:05,160
Remember, Remember the No 5th of
November?
420
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:09,560
10 being all out, 10 being.
Completely out.
421
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:16,440
Without explanation explanation
right now I would probably say
422
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:18,520
seven.
OK, 7 for me.
423
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:25,760
Seven for you, Shelton. 7.
OK, y'all are at the sevens.
424
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:30,880
OK, I thought Saturday Tally
might have been in a 9.7, you
425
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,120
know?
Yeah, I'll relax a little bit.
426
00:24:33,120 --> 00:24:35,120
I got I got my calm hat on right
now.
427
00:24:35,120 --> 00:24:38,760
You guys call that out?
I think Shelton was about an 8.7
428
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:42,000
on Saturday.
I was at like a 65.
429
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:47,720
I'm now at A5, Brian.
I'd say 5, five and a half.
430
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,000
Give me 5 1/2.
Give you 5 1/2.
431
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:51,280
He just wants to be slightly
above me.
432
00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:53,360
I'm the I'm the.
I got to be the one on the low
433
00:24:53,360 --> 00:24:55,080
end of the.
Total no, because I mean what I
434
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:58,640
what I'm basically saying with
my 5 1/2 is that I'm I'm no
435
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:03,160
longer in, but I'm also not out.
I'm I'm I'm in the middle, I'm
436
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:04,920
in the middle.
So let's go with it.
437
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:08,320
Tally, you know, and and
Shelton's y'all Shelton's going
438
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,240
like turn.
I got I got the fire and
439
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,480
gasoline below us here.
I try to be the water.
440
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:17,120
It's not going to be pretty, but
tally go man, because obviously
441
00:25:17,120 --> 00:25:18,960
I got some stuff, stuff we're
going to talk about.
442
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:23,360
But what is now like?
What is your hot button issue?
443
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,640
Well, we were talking about
this.
444
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:31,120
Everybody wants to know why I
got the Iron mask, man, Iron Man
445
00:25:31,120 --> 00:25:34,840
mask on.
I'm just, I'm just here to
446
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:38,320
learn.
So Sheldon, actually, I'm going
447
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,440
to talk to him and let him start
this thing off because I think
448
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:43,480
he's going to get me riled up
because he's going to come with
449
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,840
some interesting stuff from the
presser.
450
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:51,120
I watched it and from the game
as well, but I'm going to sit
451
00:25:51,120 --> 00:25:52,680
back and relax for a few
minutes.
452
00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,000
Hey, Chris, right there with me.
I love that.
453
00:25:58,000 --> 00:25:59,800
What?
Up, guys.
454
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:00,920
All right.
Let Sheldon go.
455
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,240
Fire away.
All right, folks.
456
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:05,440
Well, the time has come to
start.
457
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:09,000
The Brent Pride discourse feels
like a recurring theme every
458
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,920
week that there's some type of
game or clock management issue.
459
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:15,560
And we saw more of that on
Saturday against Syracuse.
460
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,440
So in the wake of, you know,
obviously the discourse is
461
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:21,360
about, you know, not taking time
out, letting the defense,
462
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:23,760
letting the offense to Syracuse
run the clock out at the end of
463
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:27,840
the at the end of regulation,
you know, deciding to go defense
464
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:30,880
1st and overtime, you know,
people can have their opinions
465
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:33,680
one by the other.
But for me, there was there was
466
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:34,960
one thing in particular that
stick out.
467
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:40,160
And I think there was a
tremendous lack of clarity that
468
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:43,480
we had in price of, you know,
post game comments and his
469
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,680
comments in a press conference
afterwards today on Tuesday
470
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,160
about what his his thought
process was.
471
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:52,920
So first of all, Coach Pry, if
you're listening, if your
472
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:55,320
family's listening, I love you
brother, but I got to call you
473
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:57,440
out because there was some BS
that went on these past few
474
00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:01,360
days.
So to start off, you know, Pride
475
00:27:01,360 --> 00:27:03,680
decided not to take that time
out to prevent the runoff at the
476
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:05,320
end of the first half when Tech,
you know, potentially was
477
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:06,680
getting towards field goal
range.
478
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:10,240
After the game he said the
communication with the refs was
479
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:13,560
unclear, but appears that he
changed his story a couple
480
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:15,800
times.
So to the post game radio
481
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,320
people, he said he chose not to
take the time out to prevent the
482
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:20,560
runoff.
Why he did that, I don't know.
483
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:24,040
Maybe he's getting some bad
advice from someone in his ear.
484
00:27:24,360 --> 00:27:26,160
Possibly.
That seems like a likely
485
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:32,400
scenario, but after the game in
the in the official post game
486
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,880
press conference, he said he did
not trust the field goal unit
487
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:40,920
that had leaky protection in
order to be able to even bother
488
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:44,160
him to make a field goal.
Now why he would say that when
489
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,480
Jon Love has already hit
multiple 50 yards before in this
490
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:49,920
season, I do not know, but he
changed his story there so
491
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:53,440
that's one.
OK, so to me this looks like
492
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:55,040
he's covering for poor decision
making.
493
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,040
All right now regarding the poor
communication with the
494
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:00,360
officials, I think this is on
pry.
495
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:03,000
I know the official can
sometimes make mistakes and they
496
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:05,400
don't explain things concise in
the right way.
497
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,400
But if you as a head coach are
not getting in their ass and
498
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:11,280
demanding that they give you a a
reasonable explanation, you are
499
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:14,120
not doing your job.
I don't think pry, I don't think
500
00:28:14,120 --> 00:28:18,680
pry right now has the, the, the
acumen that we need of a head
501
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:21,960
coach to really get in their ass
and demand that they give him a
502
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,720
response.
Which it, it just seemed like to
503
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:26,760
me like he was content with
everything that happened.
504
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,200
He had a little conversation
that was nice and polite.
505
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:31,800
Maybe, you know, his, his
eyebrows got a little bit
506
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:35,200
furred, but he, he was not
responding to the level of
507
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:37,480
intensity that I think he needed
to as a head coach.
508
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:41,080
So we go now to the Tuesday
presser.
509
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,520
He said in the presser that
there was no clarity in the
510
00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,240
moments with regards to the
officials and their explanation.
511
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,200
But he also said he did not
submit that place to the
512
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:53,480
conference office for review.
Why would you not submit the
513
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:55,960
play for review if you didn't
get clarity?
514
00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:59,440
That does not make any sense.
If you weren't, if if you felt
515
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:00,960
the explanation was
insufficient, if you thought the
516
00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,760
refs made a mistake, maybe not
giving you the time Outback, why
517
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:07,920
would you not submit that play?
That to me screams that he's
518
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,040
just doing cover.
He's doing cover because he
519
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:13,320
knows he made a mistake and he
doesn't want to admit that he
520
00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:15,360
doesn't want people he wasn't.
He doesn't want to throw himself
521
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:17,200
under the bus or maybe the
people that are giving advice
522
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:21,040
under the bus.
And then lastly on this, he also
523
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,440
said today, quote, we have to be
the aggressor.
524
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:26,760
We have to be on the attack.
In that situation, then why
525
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,240
didn't you attack?
Why did you not go down field?
526
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,280
Why did you not take a time out
when Syracuse was on their last
527
00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:34,160
possession of regulation save
some time?
528
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,600
Why did you not go down the
field in that last drive with
529
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,400
Colin Schleade, 29 seconds left,
three timeouts.
530
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:40,680
Why were you not the aggressor
you needed?
531
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:43,200
40 yards.
You needed 40 yards.
532
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:45,000
Needed 40.
Yards got the boot.
533
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:47,400
Yep, and he was not the
aggressor.
534
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:51,760
So again, just a complete but
contradiction, a series of
535
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:54,640
contradictions statements that
didn't make sense.
536
00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:57,600
I think prize didn't cover.
I think he knows he made another
537
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,000
gaffe and he obviously doesn't
want to admit that to the fans,
538
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:02,200
which has been obviously
recurring theme.
539
00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:06,520
So just really disappointing
with how you know, he articulate
540
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:08,320
that to the fan base.
Again, I love your pride, but
541
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,360
that's just I just don't like
it, man.
542
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:12,560
I think it's, I think it's a bad
look.
543
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,320
Tally.
Man, it's hard to follow that,
544
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,360
but I needed it.
I mean, he made it sound elegant
545
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:25,520
to like he did a great job to
explain a lot of the stuff and
546
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:29,160
go through everything after the
game.
547
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:33,400
You know, that kind of we're
feeling and it's the team takes
548
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:35,360
the identity of the coach, you
know what I'm saying?
549
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:39,320
Like we coach too soft, we're
playing too soft at certain
550
00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:42,320
times.
It's the same thing.
551
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:46,080
It's a broken record.
Like if you were 50, if you were
552
00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:54,960
A500, you know, coach and A500
coach in, you know, close games,
553
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,720
then maybe I would ease up a
little bit.
554
00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:03,200
But you can't be like one in 12
or one in 11 and then you come
555
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:06,760
with the same coach speak like
it gets old, man.
556
00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:08,800
And again, like Sheldon said,
like I love Pride.
557
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,680
I think Pride's a good guy, you
know, I think he's a pretty
558
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:13,120
decent coach, you know what I'm
saying?
559
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:14,960
But sometimes coaches just don't
fit.
560
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:17,320
And again, I'm not saying that
I'm all out.
561
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:18,720
It's going to take some things
in.
562
00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:21,880
I know we'll discuss it a little
bit here in a minute.
563
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:27,040
But it takes some things to to
change to have to really see
564
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,000
change.
You know, and I think right now
565
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,280
we're just hearing the same the
same old stuff.
566
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:35,120
You know, this just well, we got
to get better.
567
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,400
Well, how do you get better?
You know what I'm saying?
568
00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:39,720
If you going to, I would rather
him walk in and say I ain't
569
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,280
fucking talking to nobody today.
I'm upset.
570
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:43,680
Find me.
The rest fucked us.
571
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:46,000
I don't want to have a
conversation with nobody.
572
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,160
Everybody get out.
I don't care if you come
573
00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:50,480
watching that.
Like I want you to just be mad
574
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,880
and get up, like change
everything that you're doing
575
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:58,280
because the nice polite, you
know, coaching and on the field,
576
00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:02,520
it's just it's old, man.
It's old and fans are tired of
577
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:09,040
watching the same stuff, you
know, blow leads, lose by three
578
00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:12,800
points, lose by 6 points, and
then we hear the same thing
579
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:14,520
afterwards.
The players are tired of losing.
580
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:16,440
You know, the players, they're
playing their butts off.
581
00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:18,840
I got to give them the, you
know, nobody, everybody knows
582
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:21,520
that this team doesn't quit, you
know what I'm saying?
583
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:26,200
Everybody understands that.
But that gets, you know, kudos.
584
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,320
Like you got to, you got to get
to a point where you're not
585
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:32,640
just, well, shoot, I know we
play Virginia Tech, man, we
586
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:35,800
going to be beat up, but we
going to win, you know what I'm
587
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:37,440
saying?
Like we're that team, the team
588
00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:39,520
that we think other people are.
That's who we are.
589
00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:42,800
However, Virginia Tech fans look
at a team like Georgia Tech.
590
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:45,600
Well, we know Georgia Tech is
going to give us a good game.
591
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:47,280
That's what people think about
us.
592
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:50,240
That's what we are.
That's that we that team.
593
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:54,720
When you go through at the
beginning of the season and
594
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:57,480
you're looking at where you
going to get your wins and
595
00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:01,600
losses, people's looking at Vt
and saying that's a dub easy.
596
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,520
No matter what we play them at,
if we play them at they house,
597
00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:07,600
if we play them at our house,
that's on coaching.
598
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:10,480
You got to change some stuff and
it don't take.
599
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,520
Oh well, Beamer did it, man.
Stop saying that he ain't
600
00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:16,280
Beamer.
Stop saying Beamer did it in
601
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:18,000
this many years and this coach
did.
602
00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:21,200
It is coaches that are taking
over programs and winning in the
603
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:23,880
first year.
Elko did it at Duke.
604
00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:27,160
Manny Diaz is that Duke?
He's doing the same thing.
605
00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:29,440
And I bet Duke wasn't in a
better position.
606
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:31,680
I mean in a worse position than
Virginia Tech was.
607
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:36,200
It's about the same.
I'm just saying that we can pick
608
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,680
other, we can pick other schools
to talk about.
609
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:40,840
It's just it gets redundant,
man.
610
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:47,040
And it's so frustrating that you
watch these kids go out and you
611
00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:49,600
even watch the coaches do some
stuff that works.
612
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,800
The coaches will do something
that works and it's like it
613
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,280
surprises them.
They'll do something and it
614
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:57,880
works and they go shit, we going
to do that again.
615
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,520
You never go back to it.
You know what I'm saying?
616
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:05,480
It's just, again, I know it's
inexperience at coaching, but
617
00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:07,880
now you have to have some kind
of experience.
618
00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:12,199
Like I did some stupid shit when
I first got with my wife, right?
619
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:18,120
Like walk in from work, take
your shoes off, kick them to the
620
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,560
side, go straight to the
bathroom.
621
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:24,440
In your mind, you just thinking,
I've been at work all day, I got
622
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,560
to go use the bathroom.
But your wife is standing there
623
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:32,199
like you walked in the house and
you didn't even say hey honey or
624
00:34:32,199 --> 00:34:35,480
I'm home or nothing.
I'm telling you you're only
625
00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:38,400
going to do it once or twice
before it becomes a problem.
626
00:34:39,159 --> 00:34:42,280
Well, coach Pride, you keep
walking in the house and you
627
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:45,400
don't say that I'm home and we
getting tired of it.
628
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:47,199
I'm going to stop right there
for now.
629
00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:51,400
Brian, what you think, man?
You know what that was?
630
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:52,800
That was gold.
I like that.
631
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:56,280
Like Sheldon and Tally have like
completely set the stage for me
632
00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:58,400
here.
And I think what it comes down
633
00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:00,840
for is something that Tally kind
of talked about but didn't maybe
634
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:04,760
say directly, is that a lot of
times it feels like these
635
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,720
coaches are playing not to lose
the game.
636
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,760
That's what it feels like.
We're playing not to lose the
637
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,920
game.
And when you play not to lose,
638
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:16,760
sometimes it's going to bite you
in the ass.
639
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:20,600
And we've seen that anytime it
gets close, that's when we
640
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,640
falter because we played not to
lose.
641
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:26,240
When we look at the defensive
side of the ball, these late
642
00:35:26,240 --> 00:35:29,960
half, whether it's first half or
second-half collapses got to
643
00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:32,840
stop.
When we look at the offensive
644
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:37,160
side of the ball, when you get a
lead stomp on some throats, we
645
00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:40,800
don't do that.
It's it's like we we think that
646
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:43,320
18 is enough.
And we go out there and we just
647
00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:46,440
kind of, you know, put it out
there and all of a sudden, you
648
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:49,240
know, you get one mistake here,
one mistake there and now it's a
649
00:35:49,240 --> 00:35:51,280
game again.
And now you, you know, you got a
650
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:53,280
tight asshole because it's a
game again.
651
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:57,680
And now you don't know what to
do and now you're in in React
652
00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:00,560
mode.
And we don't do well in React
653
00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:02,520
mode.
We play well when we play loose
654
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:05,200
and confident.
Anybody that's watched this team
655
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:07,720
knows that.
And we're not doing that
656
00:36:07,720 --> 00:36:10,280
consistently enough against
these opponents.
657
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:14,720
So that's that's all I got.
From what Brian said, man, I'm,
658
00:36:14,720 --> 00:36:16,320
I'm going to go back on that as
well.
659
00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:18,720
And what he said, you know what
he's talking about.
660
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:22,920
Shoot, there was a lot that you
just threw it now and I kind of
661
00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:26,000
lost my trace that that kind of
threw me off a little bit.
662
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:31,960
We, we, you said that and then
Andrey pops up and he puts, puts
663
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:34,840
a, a, a comment up there for me
to see.
664
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:37,080
But I'm thinking about, you
know, what Brian says and he
665
00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:40,640
says, you know, when we play, we
play better when we play loose.
666
00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:43,640
And again, I know we're going to
get into some more stuff.
667
00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:48,160
People were talking in the game,
you know, and I know football,
668
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:50,000
you know, I get it.
I know sports.
669
00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:53,520
But like, my son had his first
basketball game today.
670
00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,520
Thank the Lord, very, very
thankful he's back on the court.
671
00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:59,360
You know, he went through a
whole game very he was rusty
672
00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:03,360
because he got injured playing
basketball and he was a little
673
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:05,400
rusty, but he had a great game.
You know, he went in, he
674
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:08,160
competed and they won.
So great job by them.
675
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:11,560
But they have a legendary coach
that coaches his, his varsity
676
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:13,800
basketball team.
My son plays on the freshman
677
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:17,720
team and Coach Doss is his name,
Jack Doss.
678
00:37:17,720 --> 00:37:19,520
You can look him up in
Huntsville, AL.
679
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:25,520
He's won, I think 12 state
championships at four different
680
00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:31,040
schools.
But Coach Doss probably is about
681
00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:34,240
70 and he he coaches like he's
70.
682
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:38,840
He he plays stall ball when he
gets up in the lead.
683
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:42,280
If he gets up on a team that he
thinks that he's not supposed to
684
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:46,160
get up on, if he's playing a
team that's more talented than
685
00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:49,760
he is and he gets up on that
team, he is going to hold a
686
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:50,880
ball.
He's going to try.
687
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:56,680
If he's up 20 to 18, he'll try
to hold a ball and guess what
688
00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:58,000
happens?
You want to know what happened,
689
00:37:58,000 --> 00:37:59,920
Brian?
They steal the ball, they go
690
00:37:59,920 --> 00:38:02,360
score, then they continue
scoring and then now we're
691
00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:05,560
trying to play catch up.
I feel like our staff does the
692
00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:08,800
same thing.
Pryor is a traditional coach
693
00:38:09,240 --> 00:38:12,600
with a school that has
traditions.
694
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:16,840
We're not a traditional school.
We don't do the things good that
695
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:19,240
Penn State or Alabama does.
What?
696
00:38:19,240 --> 00:38:23,360
We just have five star backs
that run the ball well or they
697
00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:28,000
have a line that always send
people like it's different for
698
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:29,640
us.
You know, we do have some things
699
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:33,760
that were known for, but we
don't have a tradition that is
700
00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:38,480
going to win US games.
So my thing is when you look at
701
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:43,040
how we play Georgia Tech, I bet
Price hard on was about that
702
00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:44,840
long.
Like that's the kind of game
703
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:47,640
that he wants.
He wants to go out and play
704
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:50,640
defense and get 3 and outs.
And he don't care if we move the
705
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:55,320
ball and we just continue
stopping them and they kick it
706
00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:59,360
back to us and we waste a little
clock and then we win 2621 to
707
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:02,920
six, you know, have some kind of
special play and get up.
708
00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:05,200
And then we just we can't do
that.
709
00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:08,600
You have to continue scoring.
You have to continue.
710
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:10,360
If they're going to give you
points, take them.
711
00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:14,640
I don't think that.
I don't think that Syracuse
712
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:18,640
could have stopped, could have
stopped our passing, the
713
00:39:18,720 --> 00:39:21,880
offense.
They still ain't stopped Steven
714
00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:23,240
Gosdale.
But guess what?
715
00:39:23,240 --> 00:39:27,560
We started doing some different
shit to get away from what we
716
00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:30,040
need to do to win the game.
And then that happens.
717
00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:32,240
We have a collapse.
Tired of it, man.
718
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,000
Curtis, I know you got some
stuff to say, man.
719
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:36,960
I ain't mean to cut you off.
Well, AI missed your ran
720
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:38,480
unfortunately because.
That's all right.
721
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:40,640
I got life.
I know you got more, but I
722
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:44,920
wanted to hear that first one,
unfortunately, but it's it's
723
00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:47,920
when it's the same shit
different day.
724
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:49,160
That's what starts irritating
you.
725
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:52,120
If we were if we had lost four
games 4 completely different
726
00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:56,200
ways this year, I think we'd be
sending we still be mad, right?
727
00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:59,200
We'd still be mad, but we
wouldn't be having this
728
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,280
conversation.
Oh, Miami blew us out.
729
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:04,000
We blew a lead.
Oh, they got up on us.
730
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:07,560
We tried to fight back.
But it's now the same narrative
731
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:10,800
over and over.
And I told Tally this week,
732
00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:16,760
y'all the four games we lost
this year, we had a lead in
733
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:18,480
Vanderbilt at the end of the
game.
734
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:22,680
We tied Rutgers at the end of
the game.
735
00:40:22,720 --> 00:40:24,160
They drove and kicked a field
goal.
736
00:40:24,720 --> 00:40:28,640
We had a 10 point lead on Miami
and obviously we had an 18 point
737
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:31,880
lead, which we all get upset
about, but we had a 7 point lead
738
00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:35,600
with four seconds to go.
We had a it's the same narrative
739
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:39,720
and y'all keep talking about the
shell on offense and we don't go
740
00:40:39,720 --> 00:40:42,440
to things.
The defense just seems like it's
741
00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:44,440
scared.
Oh, we're going to have to do
742
00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:47,720
this.
Let's it's OK if we give up a
743
00:40:47,720 --> 00:40:49,800
touchdown.
No, it's not You can't.
744
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:53,040
So we're seeing the same things
on the defensive side of the
745
00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:56,480
ball over and over because if
the defense, y'all just think
746
00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:58,640
about this just two holes.
We hold the ball.
747
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:04,960
We hold 2 times this year, 2
times we're seven and two we
748
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:08,600
hold 2 times.
That's not saying we could be
749
00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:11,040
better.
I like what James just put up
750
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:15,960
here because I saw that as well.
We are 8 O and one if games
751
00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:19,560
ended at the 8th minute. 8 O and
1:00.
752
00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:23,720
Pitiful.
If you really, if you really
753
00:41:23,720 --> 00:41:26,040
want to be mad, Curtis, if you
really want to feel some type of
754
00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:30,480
way, go and look at the last
three years.
755
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:36,400
That's what I need you to do.
So what I was saying is we, we
756
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:39,960
get into those situations, it's
the same thing at the end of
757
00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:44,120
every game, it's the same thing.
And then you're sitting here and
758
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:46,160
it's like, do something
different.
759
00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:50,400
Now he is who he is, but the
whole thing that happens and
760
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:52,720
it's all of them.
I don't care who you are, what
761
00:41:52,720 --> 00:41:56,760
field of protection you're in,
you listen to people you you
762
00:41:56,880 --> 00:42:01,040
take and that's usually how you
make your decisions, whether it
763
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:06,080
be Tally doing marketing myself
doing what I do in my company
764
00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:08,960
with learning and development,
Brian, what he does and Dan Alex
765
00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:11,200
and tell them what he does.
You listen to people, right?
766
00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:14,640
You listen to ice, you listen to
what they are supposed to do.
767
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:18,040
Apparently there's somebody in
the box, a coach on the staff in
768
00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:21,040
the box that has the book of
what you're supposed to do in
769
00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:25,160
these situations.
Now, I don't know if they are
770
00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:30,080
telling our head coach of
exactly what they should be
771
00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:35,360
doing because to what Shelton
said earlier, in that situation,
772
00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:38,880
here's what should happen.
My phone needs to shut up.
773
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:43,920
So why is it the same things?
What I would say is if you're
774
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:47,440
fucking up the same shit the
same way every time, then
775
00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:50,280
somebody is telling you wrong.
Somebody is not getting you
776
00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,520
ready.
It's eventually falls on you.
777
00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:56,000
But like all of us, like every
single person in this chat over
778
00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:59,320
here, in this chat over here,
there's people that influence
779
00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:00,880
them.
Callie, you talk about your
780
00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:03,280
wife.
I bet you didn't kick off the
781
00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:05,920
shoes and walk to the bathroom
no more after that surgery.
782
00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:07,160
You'd be like, hey, honey, how
are you?
783
00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:08,280
You have a good day.
I love you.
784
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:14,040
So it's still on him to change.
It's still on him to be better.
785
00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:18,720
But the whole thing it comes to
is who's around you.
786
00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:25,600
I like what Andrady said there.
It's not a tack because at the
787
00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:30,400
end of that game and even the
second-half, I know y'all, we
788
00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:32,440
missed tackles.
We weren't we, we played a
789
00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:35,440
little over aggressive and then
some mad shit happened.
790
00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:37,280
What happened?
We went super under aggressive
791
00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:41,400
and you can't do that.
You cannot be in the moment.
792
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:46,080
You have to be who you are.
So I know we got a lot more and
793
00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:48,920
we're going to keep going.
But I'm going to say this and I
794
00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:51,960
want, I want to see what people
think out there because I think
795
00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:54,240
he's back as a coach next year.
I do.
796
00:43:54,560 --> 00:43:56,280
Charlie, he's back.
He's 100.
797
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:57,560
He's back.
Yeah.
798
00:43:57,560 --> 00:43:59,640
I mean, regardless of how we
feel, I don't think there's a
799
00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:01,920
way we he's.
Not yeah, Yeah, he's back.
800
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:04,800
He can lose.
He can lose all the last three
801
00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:06,240
games and he's not going
anywhere.
802
00:44:06,240 --> 00:44:09,440
They're going to give him
another year or two years.
803
00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:16,400
He can lose the last three games
and not make a bowl game and
804
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:20,640
he's still going to be a coach
next year. 100% yeah.
805
00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:25,160
But what it usually is at that
point in time, what happens is
806
00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:29,520
like what I'm kind of leading
into here is currently this
807
00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:34,360
coaching staff and the analytics
people and everybody made-up of
808
00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:36,960
it on and off the field is
construction.
809
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:41,040
It cannot stay this way because
you cannot keep doing the wrong
810
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:43,960
things.
And So what I want to pivot to
811
00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:49,880
y'all, and I don't care how many
it is, it can be 0 or you can
812
00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:51,120
say the whole staff can come
back.
813
00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:52,440
I don't think it's going to look
the same.
814
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:58,360
But tell me, Shelton Moss, who
is safe on the staff right now?
815
00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:04,080
Who is safe?
Well, definitely Tyler Bowen, I
816
00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:05,000
mean.
OK.
817
00:45:05,720 --> 00:45:08,000
I think he's been, I think he's
been in his bag, not just, you
818
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:10,840
know, last week, but you know,
throughout the majority of this
819
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:13,120
year.
Like you go into Syracuse on the
820
00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:16,880
road, score 31 points, put above
over 400 yards of offense in the
821
00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:21,400
back of QB and a running back.
You know, we're top 30 ish in SP
822
00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:23,800
plus, which was above our
preseason expectations.
823
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:27,080
So they've overperformed there.
I think he's done a good job.
824
00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:29,200
I I know it's, you know, hadn't
been because it's in every game,
825
00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:31,440
but you know, part of that is
just working with players that
826
00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:33,440
have limitations and trying to,
you know, get guys more
827
00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:36,360
experience and develop them.
And I think he's been fantastic.
828
00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:38,800
I know you know, people are
always going to hate the OST
829
00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:41,800
man, but it's a tough job.
You you never you always get the
830
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:43,760
blame when things go wrong.
You never get credit when things
831
00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:45,000
go right.
I think he's done a great job.
832
00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:47,480
So I'm a big, I'm a big bone
advocate right now all.
833
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:49,440
Right, who else?
Give me a couple.
834
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:51,480
Give me give me your lift of
absolutely saves.
835
00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:57,080
Brooks done a good job with the
running back room and I think
836
00:45:57,080 --> 00:45:59,760
Crook for the most part the
online has gotten better.
837
00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:02,000
The younger players I think have
have developed pretty well.
838
00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:03,280
So I've I've definitely keep
them.
839
00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:11,360
That's your 3.
Yeah, but the quarterbacks coach
840
00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:15,120
forget the name.
Derek Jones.
841
00:46:15,720 --> 00:46:19,360
Yeah, yeah, yeah, he's, I know
some of the recruiting returns
842
00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:21,080
haven't been great, but he's
done a pretty good job
843
00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:22,920
developing that room.
Dante, let it looks great.
844
00:46:23,240 --> 00:46:25,320
I don't think you would want to
risk, you know, letting a guy
845
00:46:25,320 --> 00:46:27,520
like that go.
So I'd I'd keep him as well.
846
00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:30,440
OK.
And JC.
847
00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:34,760
And JC, anybody else, Sheldon,
the next thing you don't know,
848
00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:36,520
you're going to say we got to
keep the whole staff together,
849
00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:38,560
which we can all fly off at you
and say no to.
850
00:46:38,560 --> 00:46:40,600
If we can't keep the whole staff
together, we're five and four,
851
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:42,920
not 9 and O it's.
Going to happen.
852
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:44,880
They ain't, they ain't going.
Over there, people, the people I
853
00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:47,480
didn't mention, you can, you
know, they can make some
854
00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:49,680
decisions after this season, all
right.
855
00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:54,160
Tally.
What's the what's my?
856
00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:57,320
What's my question?
Who is safe on the staff?
857
00:46:57,320 --> 00:46:58,640
Who is?
Absolutely.
858
00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:01,720
If you were selling in his ear,
you ain't firing him because you
859
00:47:01,720 --> 00:47:05,800
lose your damn mind.
So if I'm looking at the real
860
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:10,120
answer, everybody's safe because
I don't think that our football
861
00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:14,760
program has the nuts to get rid
of anybody.
862
00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:17,160
You know, I don't think that
anybody.
863
00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:21,160
I think pride's too nice.
He had a lot of friends.
864
00:47:21,720 --> 00:47:23,720
I don't think he won't he will
let anybody go.
865
00:47:23,960 --> 00:47:28,600
But if I'm looking at who I
would be safe, if I'm in charge,
866
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:31,960
if you're in charge, if you're
the I'm in charge, I would say,
867
00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:37,960
you know, probably JC Price, you
know, I've seen some good stuff
868
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:40,400
in him.
He's got a guy on his line that
869
00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:44,160
has 12 sacks, you know, probably
would say he's safe.
870
00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:50,360
He's a through and through a
hokey man.
871
00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:54,120
Shit.
I mean, Brooks, Brooks has done
872
00:47:54,120 --> 00:48:00,600
a good job.
Like like, Shelton said, Dude,
873
00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:05,440
this, I just feel like you, it's
up in the air for everybody
874
00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:11,720
else, it's up in the air, man.
Like JC Brooks has been fine.
875
00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:15,400
I know, Shelton said.
Crook, you know I ain't.
876
00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:18,040
I'm going to leave it alone for
right now till we talk about
877
00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:23,760
other stuff, but yeah, I'm just
Mines, Coach Mines.
878
00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:26,960
Coach Mines is safe, and the
reason I say Coach Mines is safe
879
00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:29,200
is because of how he's
recruited.
880
00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:33,520
But when we start to get into
other stuff, the main thing with
881
00:48:33,520 --> 00:48:38,560
me to why it's so hard for me to
say who's safe and who's not is
882
00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:41,880
because I feel like part of
coaching is who you put in the
883
00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:44,040
game.
You know what I'm saying?
884
00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:47,520
You have to coach your
personnel.
885
00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:52,040
It's cool to get receivers, but
I'm watching other four-star
886
00:48:52,040 --> 00:48:54,880
recruits and three star recruits
get on the field at other
887
00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:59,560
schools.
Why not put somebody in and try,
888
00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:04,240
you know, why not let me run
somebody on the field to see
889
00:49:04,240 --> 00:49:08,880
what they do?
Hey receiver, you're fast.
890
00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:12,440
I need you to go run a go route
because these guys apparently
891
00:49:12,720 --> 00:49:14,280
are not going to catch a go
route.
892
00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:16,800
They either aren't getting the
separation or they're not going
893
00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:18,920
to die for it.
So I just need you to go in
894
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:20,800
there with fresh legs and just
run.
895
00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:24,240
Just run as fast as you can and
try to catch this ball.
896
00:49:24,240 --> 00:49:26,000
That's what I need.
Let's see what happens.
897
00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:32,560
So I'm done.
Mines Price Brooks.
898
00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:35,040
Brooks, that's all.
That's the only people safe,
899
00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:36,880
although Tally says everybody's
safe.
900
00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:39,240
But then it's up in the air, but
nobody's safe.
901
00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:44,120
Tally doing philosophical crazy
he she's got bullshit.
902
00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:45,720
I'm gonna have to put the mask
back on, man.
903
00:49:45,720 --> 00:49:47,760
No.
You got No, we got to let you go
904
00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:51,880
tell you got any.
Chess going on here. 40 maybe
905
00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:53,800
5D.
Brian Who's who's safe?
906
00:49:53,840 --> 00:49:56,560
A lot of DS man.
There's a lot of DS.
907
00:49:57,160 --> 00:50:03,840
Hey, I, I, I've got five names.
It's JC Price, it's Fontell,
908
00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:07,920
it's Coach Brooks, it's Cheetah
and it's Bowen.
909
00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:16,320
They are safe at this point.
To me, Price, I think speaks for
910
00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:19,520
itself.
I think the the the play of his
911
00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:23,240
unit and how he's recruited in
the last couple cycles speaks
912
00:50:23,240 --> 00:50:26,080
for itself.
I think the output that we're
913
00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:29,280
seeing from a developmental
standpoint and from a recruiting
914
00:50:29,280 --> 00:50:31,480
standpoint from Brooks speaks
for itself.
915
00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:37,320
I think we look at Fontell, he's
shown the capability of bringing
916
00:50:37,320 --> 00:50:43,080
in guys.
And when we look at Cheetah, I
917
00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:46,640
think we're seeing, again, very,
very good developmental
918
00:50:46,680 --> 00:50:50,440
cornerbacks.
Coach hasn't really seen an
919
00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:54,160
elite recruit, but also has done
a really good job of developing
920
00:50:54,160 --> 00:50:57,840
the guys that he's brought in
kind of in that high three star,
921
00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:02,280
you know, low 4 area there.
And to Sheldon's point, I think
922
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:07,000
Bowen, the biggest complaint I
have about Bowen is kind of what
923
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:11,520
we've already talked about is
when, when the chips are down,
924
00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:16,640
when when we start getting into
those moments where we can stomp
925
00:51:16,640 --> 00:51:20,320
on a, on a, on a throat.
We don't always do that.
926
00:51:21,840 --> 00:51:23,320
That's my biggest complaint
about him.
927
00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:26,440
I think he's done a good job of
kind of adapting to his
928
00:51:26,440 --> 00:51:31,080
personnel as a play caller and
getting points on the board has
929
00:51:31,080 --> 00:51:33,640
been pretty good.
So I've got no no big qualms
930
00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:38,640
with him, but also I'll I'll
pivot on on Tally's point a
931
00:51:38,640 --> 00:51:41,160
little bit here too.
As far as you know, the young
932
00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:45,160
guys playing.
I think we see this staff has
933
00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:48,200
been in all three years
conservative.
934
00:51:48,320 --> 00:51:52,760
I think especially early in the
year of getting young guys on
935
00:51:52,760 --> 00:51:58,880
the field in situations where
they don't have to, right, Like
936
00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:01,560
when when you've got a veteran
at a position.
937
00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:08,320
Now when we look at cornerback
and safety, we've had situations
938
00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:11,560
where we've had to get guys on
the field early for obvious
939
00:52:11,560 --> 00:52:13,040
reasons.
And those are death, death
940
00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:14,960
related.
But when we look at some of
941
00:52:14,960 --> 00:52:17,480
these other positions, we've
been a little bit hesitant to
942
00:52:17,560 --> 00:52:21,880
get the younger guy, younger
player on the field when we've
943
00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:25,440
had the opportunity just because
we do have a little more veteran
944
00:52:25,680 --> 00:52:27,400
leadership in that particular
room.
945
00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:29,600
I'm hoping that changes a little
bit.
946
00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:33,880
I hope when we mix things up as
we kind of move into the last
947
00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:37,040
three games of the season here,
because at this point, most of
948
00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:39,560
these guys have games they can
still burn.
949
00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:43,040
Let's get them some run,
especially now that we're out of
950
00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:47,000
contention for Charlotte.
Put them out there and let let's
951
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:51,200
see what they can do.
All right, so there we go.
952
00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:57,040
So you are JC Brooks Cheetah
Bone, right?
953
00:52:57,920 --> 00:53:00,960
JC Mines Brooks.
Cheetah, you said mines OK
954
00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:03,520
awesome.
I got four and these are the
955
00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:06,200
only four safe in my opinion.
JC is definitely safe.
956
00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:10,680
The defensive line eats.
You see those guys playing a
957
00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:14,120
high level, older, younger all
across the board.
958
00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:17,400
Fontelle clearly safe.
The recruiting proudness is
959
00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:20,120
there.
I'm going to throw a curveball
960
00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:23,320
because this is one y'all have
not mentioned, but he is a stud
961
00:53:23,320 --> 00:53:27,680
recruiter and I got called out a
couple weeks ago by somebody not
962
00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:29,360
realizing it.
Sean Quinn.
963
00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:32,520
Sean Quinn's not going anywhere.
Sean Quinn recruited Chance
964
00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:35,400
Wiggins, he recruited Christian
Evans, he recruited Aiden, he
965
00:53:35,400 --> 00:53:37,720
recruited Aiden Stevens, he
recruited Overton.
966
00:53:37,720 --> 00:53:41,440
He's Woodson's primary.
Think about that right there.
967
00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:44,160
Think about all those names.
How many of those guys are on
968
00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:45,920
the field doing something
already?
969
00:53:46,400 --> 00:53:49,440
Just about all of them.
And Jeff Overton is, as per
970
00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:51,840
tally, probably the most
underrated running back in the
971
00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:53,320
entire country.
Yeah.
972
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:59,400
Give me also Elijah Brooks.
Nobody else is safe.
973
00:53:59,880 --> 00:54:03,440
Those guys are safe because I've
seen development from their
974
00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:05,960
positions.
I'll suppose all Sean Quinn take
975
00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:09,080
a risk with Caleb Spencer early
in the year and you know, he had
976
00:54:09,080 --> 00:54:15,160
to go to the table to pry and
say I need Caleb to play and how
977
00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:19,280
much better that room has gotten
between Keanta and Caleb
978
00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:21,760
Spencer.
So that's my four.
979
00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:25,640
If we if we take a look at all
of ours, JC is the safest.
980
00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:29,000
Brooks is pretty safe.
Then we have our missus here and
981
00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:30,640
there.
We got Fontell pretty safe.
982
00:54:31,400 --> 00:54:33,840
But that's the thing we start
seeing.
983
00:54:33,840 --> 00:54:35,960
We don't know what goes on
behind the scenes because
984
00:54:35,960 --> 00:54:39,920
apparently whoever's up in the
booth that does the plays, what
985
00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:42,320
if that's somebody we listed?
What if that's the person that's
986
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:44,680
supposed to be feeding in the
two minutes, hey, when to call
987
00:54:44,680 --> 00:54:46,240
the timeout and they're fucking
up.
988
00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:48,520
You could love them.
Be like, I love him.
989
00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:51,440
He does all this good stuff and
he's realized, oh, he's the guy
990
00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:53,880
that so still coach want to call
timeouts and he ain't doing his
991
00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:56,200
job right.
How would you feel about that?
992
00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:59,520
What if I know Fantail's on the
sidelines, but we love Fantail.
993
00:54:59,520 --> 00:55:02,640
But what if that was Fantail's
job and he was screwing up
994
00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:05,120
getting in the timeouts?
Would we love him more or would
995
00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:09,080
be like, wait a second, you can
recruit, but are you, are you
996
00:55:09,080 --> 00:55:11,040
not telling them when they call
the timeouts right?
997
00:55:11,640 --> 00:55:16,960
And that's your job.
You turn into a big boy football
998
00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:21,640
organization and you get people
and designate certain jobs to
999
00:55:21,640 --> 00:55:23,320
them.
If you ain't doing a good job of
1000
00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:26,120
telling people when to call the
time out, then you shouldn't be,
1001
00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:30,200
you shouldn't be doing that.
If you're good at recruiting as
1002
00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:32,680
a recruiter, I don't know.
It's just different things that
1003
00:55:32,680 --> 00:55:34,720
you can do.
Another thing I was going to say
1004
00:55:34,720 --> 00:55:39,680
too, a lot of people were, I
think everybody on here besides
1005
00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:42,480
me would say, you know, Bowen's
doing a good job.
1006
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:48,320
He is, you know, kind of safe.
And I'm just asking the
1007
00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:51,360
question, who calls the plays?
Does he call the plays?
1008
00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:53,800
He sends the plays in.
He is the play caller.
1009
00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:57,400
Why the fuck would you send a
play in for a quarterback that
1010
00:55:57,400 --> 00:56:03,440
has a bum leg to run the ball?
And you did it in two games.
1011
00:56:04,240 --> 00:56:06,680
You did it in Vanderbilt when
Kyron was cramping up.
1012
00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:09,560
Y'all, he had to come off the
field.
1013
00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:14,120
Then you put him back in and you
do a running play that your two
1014
00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:18,480
backup quarterbacks could have
did, and then you push Lee in
1015
00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:22,600
and he's got to bum ankle and
you call a run and play.
1016
00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:25,000
Why not just let Pop Watson run
it?
1017
00:56:25,600 --> 00:56:28,480
I don't know, man.
I don't feel like he's safe.
1018
00:56:28,920 --> 00:56:32,320
I don't the reason I don't think
he's safe and and I Shelton, I
1019
00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:34,080
know you're looking at the
statistics and that the
1020
00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:39,520
percentage is there are times he
is effectively the guy playing
1021
00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:42,040
craps.
Either he's hitting and it's
1022
00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:44,920
rolling or he's rolling snake
eyes every time and just busting
1023
00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:47,480
the board up.
Because there are times in the
1024
00:56:47,480 --> 00:56:52,000
game where it's like we need a
big drive and nothing happens.
1025
00:56:52,560 --> 00:56:56,440
And now I know that's some
execution that summoned him, but
1026
00:56:56,440 --> 00:56:59,000
it's still ultimately going to
fall on the coach.
1027
00:56:59,480 --> 00:57:02,360
And that's my bigger issue with
him because when he's rolling,
1028
00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:07,280
when he's rolling like he was,
go back to BC in that first half
1029
00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:10,840
where everything was hidden,
Kyron was nailing the passes,
1030
00:57:10,880 --> 00:57:13,400
perfect run blocks, lane seal
for Duden.
1031
00:57:13,640 --> 00:57:16,120
That's great.
But that third quarter happened,
1032
00:57:16,120 --> 00:57:19,200
if we don't recall, where we
couldn't do a fucking thing,
1033
00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:22,760
remember that we couldn't do a
thing, and they got back in the
1034
00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:25,440
game.
Well, we also kept him.
1035
00:57:25,520 --> 00:57:27,040
We also kept giving them the
ball.
1036
00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:28,800
We did.
And we?
1037
00:57:28,880 --> 00:57:32,880
Turned off as a coach, but the
whole piece is we go, he goes
1038
00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:36,040
hot and cold and I'm going to
tell you when it's cold is scary
1039
00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:39,840
because you're like we can't
even get 10 yards.
1040
00:57:40,320 --> 00:57:44,440
We can't even get a first down.
That's why I'm I'm more.
1041
00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:48,680
Do you completely fire him?
I don't know, but there's
1042
00:57:48,680 --> 00:57:51,440
obviously things like that.
What else y'all got on this
1043
00:57:51,440 --> 00:57:53,240
subject?
Anybody?
1044
00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:58,240
Nothing.
No, not really, Sheldon.
1045
00:57:58,520 --> 00:57:59,840
You look like he was gonna say
something.
1046
00:58:00,040 --> 00:58:00,600
He did.
Yeah.
1047
00:58:00,640 --> 00:58:03,400
I would say the one thing that
makes this analysis tricky for
1048
00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:06,920
me is the fact that I feel like
the team this year has first of
1049
00:58:06,920 --> 00:58:09,240
all, they definitely prove him
last year qualitatively.
1050
00:58:09,720 --> 00:58:12,320
And I think for the most part,
they've played good football in
1051
00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:15,280
terms of just, you know, being
efficient and, you know, look,
1052
00:58:15,280 --> 00:58:17,520
they're they're top 30 in most
of the metrics.
1053
00:58:17,520 --> 00:58:19,200
You know, they're they're top
three and point differential.
1054
00:58:19,200 --> 00:58:22,480
Like if you're just looking at
the play on the field, they've
1055
00:58:22,480 --> 00:58:24,680
been a good team for the most
part.
1056
00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:29,280
It's just the the complete
inability to manage the game is
1057
00:58:29,280 --> 00:58:30,600
the reason they're five and
four.
1058
00:58:30,880 --> 00:58:34,160
And that falls on not the
assistant coaches, but one
1059
00:58:34,160 --> 00:58:35,320
person.
And I think we.
1060
00:58:35,520 --> 00:58:38,040
And that's, and that's where I'm
at, you know, like I'm going
1061
00:58:38,040 --> 00:58:40,360
through this because that's what
we are here to do.
1062
00:58:40,720 --> 00:58:45,760
But none of it matters if the
head man ain't right like
1063
00:58:46,240 --> 00:58:50,240
Sheldon, great job, man.
I mean, he shit, he summed up
1064
00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:54,240
kind of everything that I feel
is because you can get rid of
1065
00:58:54,240 --> 00:58:55,760
this.
So you can do that and you can
1066
00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:58,040
do this, but it's the head
coach.
1067
00:58:58,320 --> 00:59:01,480
Like I can be mad at Tyler Bowen
for things he's doing with the
1068
00:59:01,480 --> 00:59:03,960
offense.
But if you know, the head coach
1069
00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:09,920
is saying we're up 21 to three,
do not run any passing plays.
1070
00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:12,120
I don't know what that I don't
know what they're telling him,
1071
00:59:12,440 --> 00:59:15,800
but I know that.
I know we have a head coach that
1072
00:59:16,520 --> 00:59:22,880
runs the program and he's like
one in 11 or one in 12 in one
1073
00:59:22,880 --> 00:59:27,360
score games.
I need that to change so.
1074
00:59:29,640 --> 00:59:32,920
All right, well, I'm, I'm gonna
flip it because again, it all is
1075
00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:38,040
on the head coach.
But again, you know, that's why
1076
00:59:38,040 --> 00:59:39,800
I keep saying it.
None of us.
1077
00:59:40,600 --> 00:59:43,080
What is, what's the old, what's
the old island saying, Brian?
1078
00:59:43,400 --> 00:59:44,440
Well, you can't.
You can't.
1079
00:59:44,800 --> 00:59:46,240
Do no man is an island to
himself?
1080
00:59:46,560 --> 00:59:49,240
Well, I was thinking more, you
can't do the same thing over and
1081
00:59:49,240 --> 00:59:52,640
over and expecting the results.
So I mean, if it's not working,
1082
00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:55,880
you got to do something.
So that's kind of that's the
1083
00:59:55,880 --> 01:00:00,520
point of the exercise, right?
Like whether that's focused on
1084
01:00:00,680 --> 01:00:03,440
make trying to make the head
coach better or whether that's
1085
01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:06,800
bringing in some guys around the
head coach to make him better.
1086
01:00:06,800 --> 01:00:10,320
But to Shelton's point.
It's only going to get so good
1087
01:00:10,800 --> 01:00:14,200
to a point where at some point
you've got to get better at
1088
01:00:14,200 --> 01:00:16,120
manage of the game because if
you're not managing the game
1089
01:00:16,120 --> 01:00:19,560
well, you're going to keep
consistently losing these tight
1090
01:00:19,560 --> 01:00:21,200
games.
That's true.
1091
01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:25,320
That's when those little things
that a coach does matters the
1092
01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:27,960
most.
You can, you can have a a fuck
1093
01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:31,560
up or two as a head coach when
you're winning by 18 and you
1094
01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:34,120
keep winning by 18.
But when you when that 18
1095
01:00:34,120 --> 01:00:38,640
shrinks down to three or four or
seven, now all those little,
1096
01:00:38,640 --> 01:00:41,800
little things that you're doing,
those little, little wrinkles
1097
01:00:41,800 --> 01:00:45,800
here or there where you don't
use a timeout or you don't put
1098
01:00:45,800 --> 01:00:49,120
your foot on the gas when you
need to, that's going to add up.
1099
01:00:50,520 --> 01:00:51,800
True.
All right.
1100
01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:55,840
Is there you, you got to tell
again, a part of this exercise
1101
01:00:55,840 --> 01:00:57,680
too is you're you're the
advisor.
1102
01:00:57,840 --> 01:00:59,240
You're the advisor to Coach
Prop.
1103
01:00:59,480 --> 01:01:02,400
Whether you say get rid of him
or we're going to give him
1104
01:01:02,400 --> 01:01:06,040
another chance, who's the
person?
1105
01:01:06,080 --> 01:01:08,040
I don't care if it's 123, it can
be.
1106
01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:10,880
It can be all nine.
To Tally's point, I'm sure Tally
1107
01:01:10,880 --> 01:01:15,640
won't fire everybody.
So it is true who is in the
1108
01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:17,280
who's, who's in the box with the
book.
1109
01:01:17,320 --> 01:01:19,320
I don't think I've seen Chris on
the sidelines.
1110
01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:20,920
I don't know who's up in the box
with the book.
1111
01:01:21,800 --> 01:01:23,440
That's what that's on the
sidelines.
1112
01:01:23,440 --> 01:01:25,680
Because Tebow's in the booth
that that be that's.
1113
01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:27,080
I don't.
I don't think Tebow's got the
1114
01:01:27,080 --> 01:01:28,120
book.
I think it's one of the other.
1115
01:01:28,120 --> 01:01:30,760
Analysts.
But I'm just saying like, you
1116
01:01:30,840 --> 01:01:32,160
don't, you don't give the book
to Tebow.
1117
01:01:32,160 --> 01:01:33,640
I mean.
What do y'all think about Chris?
1118
01:01:33,640 --> 01:01:35,240
We didn't even we didn't talk
about him.
1119
01:01:35,600 --> 01:01:36,560
He doesn't see it on the right
now.
1120
01:01:36,560 --> 01:01:38,640
What y'all think about him?
What do I think about Chris?
1121
01:01:38,840 --> 01:01:43,400
Yeah, what I think about Chris
is where Kyron is right now.
1122
01:01:44,080 --> 01:01:46,560
He is the mechanical quarterback
coach, right?
1123
01:01:47,160 --> 01:01:48,920
Bowen's.
Bowen's a coordinator.
1124
01:01:48,920 --> 01:01:50,600
Bowen's trying to get the
offense moving.
1125
01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:54,520
I haven't seen the improvement
from Kyron like we were
1126
01:01:54,520 --> 01:01:57,000
expecting.
And I think that falls directly
1127
01:01:57,000 --> 01:02:00,520
on Brian.
Chris, you know, I, I and, and I
1128
01:02:00,520 --> 01:02:03,400
can't remember who I saw say
this and I, I want to give them
1129
01:02:03,400 --> 01:02:08,360
credit, but the question is to,
you know, you saw Kyron go down
1130
01:02:08,360 --> 01:02:10,280
to South Beach.
Is that who he should have been
1131
01:02:10,280 --> 01:02:13,760
working out with this year?
Was it you, Sheldon?
1132
01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:16,560
Did you send that somebody made?
That.
1133
01:02:17,280 --> 01:02:20,040
Somebody made that message.
I wish I remember who it was.
1134
01:02:20,160 --> 01:02:23,880
If you it was you, put yourself
in the chat, I'll shout you out.
1135
01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:26,680
But did he make a mistake going
down there working out with
1136
01:02:26,680 --> 01:02:29,800
those guys?
He's not those guys.
1137
01:02:30,520 --> 01:02:33,040
Did he make a mistake working
out with the wrong guys in the
1138
01:02:33,040 --> 01:02:34,200
offseason?
I don't know.
1139
01:02:34,440 --> 01:02:37,120
Is Brian Criss doing a good
enough job to develop people?
1140
01:02:37,680 --> 01:02:39,760
You know, everybody's like,
well, look, Colin Schlee, Colin
1141
01:02:39,760 --> 01:02:43,480
Schlee played six years.
Some guys have just played long
1142
01:02:43,480 --> 01:02:44,920
enough.
The mechanics are going to come
1143
01:02:44,920 --> 01:02:48,200
more natural for them.
So maybe you're right, Tally.
1144
01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:50,800
Maybe you're looking at some of
these analysts who aren't
1145
01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:55,600
effectively doing their jobs and
improving people, but.
1146
01:02:56,160 --> 01:02:59,480
Again, I don't know, I mean, I
just look at certain things.
1147
01:02:59,480 --> 01:03:04,440
I'm like, you know, Pop has been
on the Pop has been on campus
1148
01:03:04,440 --> 01:03:07,200
for two years, you know, 18
months.
1149
01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:11,600
What have we seen from him?
You know, can he, what can he do
1150
01:03:11,600 --> 01:03:15,040
for us?
You know, looking at Karen, I
1151
01:03:15,040 --> 01:03:17,800
wouldn't say when you talk
about, you know, Karen going and
1152
01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:21,880
out with, you know, the other
guys and stuff.
1153
01:03:22,160 --> 01:03:25,520
I wouldn't say that that is a a
bad thing because you are
1154
01:03:25,520 --> 01:03:29,440
getting some coaching from a
quarterback coach and you're
1155
01:03:29,440 --> 01:03:33,120
getting some things that's going
to help you monetarily as far
1156
01:03:33,120 --> 01:03:36,360
far as NIL or getting you some
podcast looks and stuff.
1157
01:03:36,560 --> 01:03:39,360
But when those players come
back, they're coming back to
1158
01:03:39,360 --> 01:03:42,880
you, you as a coach, you have to
take what they've done and what
1159
01:03:42,880 --> 01:03:47,160
you see and say that ain't going
to work or what you've done
1160
01:03:47,160 --> 01:03:49,000
here.
We have to switch that up or
1161
01:03:49,880 --> 01:03:52,200
hey, you ain't ready, you ain't
going to play, you know, I don't
1162
01:03:52,200 --> 01:03:53,920
know.
That's the kind of things I look
1163
01:03:53,920 --> 01:03:56,360
at from the coaches.
I just don't, you know, I don't
1164
01:03:56,360 --> 01:03:56,840
know, man.
I got.
1165
01:03:57,240 --> 01:03:58,960
You.
I got you all right.
1166
01:03:59,000 --> 01:03:59,560
Well, that.
Was.
1167
01:03:59,560 --> 01:04:02,240
I mean, that was good.
Let's make some tough decisions
1168
01:04:02,240 --> 01:04:05,360
here though, because I like what
this is, James, who got to see
1169
01:04:05,360 --> 01:04:07,160
the presser today.
Not afraid of tough
1170
01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:11,360
conversations you had to make a
conversation with.
1171
01:04:11,360 --> 01:04:13,600
Yourself and your staff and not
just the players.
1172
01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:17,000
Not just the players, I think.
That's I think we're getting to
1173
01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:19,960
a point where you know that
that's where we're coming to a
1174
01:04:19,960 --> 01:04:23,040
head and.
Who's then?
1175
01:04:23,040 --> 01:04:25,480
Brian, who's got to go?
You sitting across from Coach
1176
01:04:25,520 --> 01:04:27,640
Pride, you've been given
$100,000.
1177
01:04:28,240 --> 01:04:29,880
Coach you, you got to let these
guys go.
1178
01:04:30,080 --> 01:04:31,640
I'm sorry, or you've got to do
this?
1179
01:04:32,200 --> 01:04:36,880
To to me it is, it is coach Marv
and and I think coach Marv is a
1180
01:04:36,880 --> 01:04:41,720
good guy, but to me, too many
late game collapses from this
1181
01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:46,120
defense and from looking at him
for just from a coaching
1182
01:04:46,120 --> 01:04:52,240
perspective, his unit is not
good enough to justify also the
1183
01:04:52,240 --> 01:04:55,440
fact that he is kind of a
recruiting liability as well.
1184
01:04:56,840 --> 01:04:59,880
So you, you put those three
things together, that tells me
1185
01:04:59,880 --> 01:05:04,560
that Marv has to go.
OK, just Marv nobody else right
1186
01:05:04,560 --> 01:05:07,880
now.
If you're saying has to go, so
1187
01:05:07,880 --> 01:05:10,920
there's going to be some guys
that I could have a conversation
1188
01:05:10,920 --> 01:05:14,960
with you about as well, but the
only person that I think has to
1189
01:05:14,960 --> 01:05:18,520
go is Coach Marv.
OK, Shelton.
1190
01:05:21,400 --> 01:05:24,440
So I'm going to punt here and
and I'm not, I'm not going to
1191
01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:28,440
say anyone has to go, but I will
say I'm certainly underwhelmed
1192
01:05:28,520 --> 01:05:33,240
with Marv, you know, given that
he's, you know, the leader of
1193
01:05:33,240 --> 01:05:37,280
the defense.
And I just I think they have
1194
01:05:37,480 --> 01:05:40,080
stagnated a little bit.
I don't think they've really,
1195
01:05:40,680 --> 01:05:42,960
you know, when I look at the
offense, I see a team that's
1196
01:05:42,960 --> 01:05:45,240
going to kind of over performed
a little bit like they've sort
1197
01:05:45,240 --> 01:05:47,680
of made the most out of the
cards that they've been dealt.
1198
01:05:48,400 --> 01:05:50,600
I don't really say the same for
the defense because they were,
1199
01:05:51,000 --> 01:05:52,160
you know, they were good in
price.
1200
01:05:52,320 --> 01:05:53,920
They were decent in price first
year.
1201
01:05:54,840 --> 01:05:57,200
You know, they had the
opportunity to to build and
1202
01:05:57,200 --> 01:05:58,680
recruit these last two years in
the portal.
1203
01:05:58,880 --> 01:06:00,600
Whereas with the offense, I
mean, they were starting
1204
01:06:00,600 --> 01:06:02,840
literally from scratch and it's
been kind of a slow, you know,
1205
01:06:02,840 --> 01:06:05,440
the steady progress, but the
offense has gotten incrementally
1206
01:06:05,440 --> 01:06:08,040
better every season by, you
know, a pretty wide margin
1207
01:06:08,560 --> 01:06:10,320
defense.
I think they've stagnated.
1208
01:06:10,400 --> 01:06:13,520
They took a step back this year.
There was a top 30 defense last
1209
01:06:13,520 --> 01:06:14,640
year.
They're they're they're taking a
1210
01:06:14,640 --> 01:06:16,560
step back and they're like 50-60
this year.
1211
01:06:16,840 --> 01:06:20,240
So yeah, it's it's not only
stagnated, it's a step back.
1212
01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:23,520
You can't fire them all, but you
got to tell them hey, get rid of
1213
01:06:23,520 --> 01:06:26,440
this.
Call them all in the room and
1214
01:06:26,440 --> 01:06:28,880
cuss them all out, starting with
the head coach.
1215
01:06:28,880 --> 01:06:32,800
You cuss him too.
You you you messing up too.
1216
01:06:32,800 --> 01:06:36,760
But bars.
I like you buddy, but one of my
1217
01:06:36,760 --> 01:06:39,640
coaching buddies said you won't
recruit none of his players.
1218
01:06:39,720 --> 01:06:44,680
He's got a, he's got a, a
championship winning team.
1219
01:06:45,280 --> 01:06:50,160
I think he's lost four games in
four years at a high school
1220
01:06:50,160 --> 01:06:52,240
here, and he knows Marr very
well.
1221
01:06:53,840 --> 01:06:57,280
Besides all that, you keep on
fucking up, man, and I liked
1222
01:06:57,280 --> 01:06:59,920
you.
I wanted to, but you got to go
1223
01:07:00,360 --> 01:07:06,200
Stew, hope, put on your book bag
and start hitch hiking.
1224
01:07:08,720 --> 01:07:10,400
Halloween's over.
You ain't got to worry about
1225
01:07:10,400 --> 01:07:12,120
Michael Miles and nobody chasing
you.
1226
01:07:12,680 --> 01:07:15,120
Just ease on down, ease on down
the road.
1227
01:07:15,840 --> 01:07:18,000
I still have the.
RV You think You think you still
1228
01:07:18,000 --> 01:07:21,080
got the RV?
It's so hard for me.
1229
01:07:21,280 --> 01:07:23,600
It's so hard for me for the Stew
hope thing because I mean, we
1230
01:07:23,600 --> 01:07:26,640
did have a lot of different
collapses and things like that.
1231
01:07:26,640 --> 01:07:30,240
But at the same time, if I'm
going to give, you know, go at a
1232
01:07:30,240 --> 01:07:31,400
coach, I got to give him some
credit.
1233
01:07:31,400 --> 01:07:36,320
I mean, we do have John Love,
who is the man, you know, he has
1234
01:07:36,320 --> 01:07:40,720
to be developed by somebody.
Peter Moore same booming the
1235
01:07:40,720 --> 01:07:45,160
ball.
So what I mean took a Holloway,
1236
01:07:45,160 --> 01:07:48,480
if he was there, you know, I
feel like Lane, I feel like Lane
1237
01:07:48,480 --> 01:07:51,880
this year has been as I don't
know if he's injured, he's just
1238
01:07:51,880 --> 01:07:55,560
a step different, especially on
punt, you know, I don't know if
1239
01:07:55,560 --> 01:07:58,360
you can put somebody else back
there, but it's been sometimes
1240
01:07:58,360 --> 01:08:01,920
when I've seen maybe some holes
open up and Lane's just not as
1241
01:08:01,920 --> 01:08:06,800
quick to get there as he was.
So I hate to say it about Stu.
1242
01:08:06,800 --> 01:08:11,120
Like I feel bad to say Stu has
to go, but if I'm just having
1243
01:08:11,120 --> 01:08:15,240
that tough conversation, I'm
sorry that things didn't work
1244
01:08:15,240 --> 01:08:17,040
out for you.
You did a good job by getting us
1245
01:08:17,040 --> 01:08:18,479
love, but you got to go to all
right.
1246
01:08:19,359 --> 01:08:21,760
First of all, I'm going to put
what Jim said up here.
1247
01:08:22,760 --> 01:08:26,080
Yes, this is the exercise, Jim.
You got to throw somebody under
1248
01:08:26,080 --> 01:08:28,279
the bus.
Jim, are you going to keep Jim?
1249
01:08:28,279 --> 01:08:30,560
I know you're out there, you're
always with us.
1250
01:08:30,840 --> 01:08:33,640
I love you because you put a
great bunch of comments in and
1251
01:08:33,640 --> 01:08:35,040
I'm going to throw this right to
Jim.
1252
01:08:35,160 --> 01:08:37,479
So Jim, are you not letting
anybody go?
1253
01:08:37,720 --> 01:08:42,040
5 and 4 is acceptable, 7:00 and
6:00 last year was acceptable.
1254
01:08:42,040 --> 01:08:44,240
I'm going to put that on you
because I'm going to do the
1255
01:08:44,240 --> 01:08:46,800
other question in a second.
Six and six this year.
1256
01:08:46,800 --> 01:08:48,680
Is that acceptable?
Is that acceptable?
1257
01:08:48,720 --> 01:08:50,720
Maybe seven and six would have
both six and seven, whatever.
1258
01:08:51,040 --> 01:08:55,800
But I'm also going to go more
because I keep saying, y'all,
1259
01:08:58,240 --> 01:09:04,399
how often is Pry in that room?
How many times, because I'm
1260
01:09:04,399 --> 01:09:06,479
sitting here, I'm going to say,
you know what, the Stanford
1261
01:09:06,479 --> 01:09:08,279
game, Brent Pryor was in that
room all week.
1262
01:09:08,760 --> 01:09:11,240
He created that game plan.
That's why we only gave up
1263
01:09:11,240 --> 01:09:13,640
seven.
Then he turned it back over and
1264
01:09:13,640 --> 01:09:20,720
then BC and then all this.
So and it's more of the there's
1265
01:09:20,720 --> 01:09:23,080
there's a model out there.
They got wrote this year by
1266
01:09:23,080 --> 01:09:26,880
Clark Lee where if you're a
defensive head coach, take over
1267
01:09:26,880 --> 01:09:30,920
to defense, go find some senior
guy to help out with the
1268
01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:32,720
offense.
Look what's happened with
1269
01:09:32,720 --> 01:09:36,040
Vanderbilt and I know they have
a good quarterback, but you saw
1270
01:09:36,040 --> 01:09:39,120
that right and happened right.
They beat us.
1271
01:09:39,120 --> 01:09:41,760
They beat Alabama.
They they should have beat they
1272
01:09:41,760 --> 01:09:44,640
got they got a job to Texas to
Texas was a job.
1273
01:09:44,640 --> 01:09:48,080
They should have beat Texas.
The SEC couldn't let that SEC
1274
01:09:48,080 --> 01:09:50,120
couldn't let that happen.
They couldn't let that
1275
01:09:50,120 --> 01:09:52,160
Vanderbilt team beat another
good team.
1276
01:09:52,720 --> 01:09:56,280
But for, but for Chris Maher,
it's it Brian says that the,
1277
01:09:56,360 --> 01:09:58,360
the, the, it's the collapses at
the end.
1278
01:09:59,080 --> 01:10:00,320
And and y'all, I'm going to go
back.
1279
01:10:00,600 --> 01:10:04,240
You know, even like the last
couple years we've had those,
1280
01:10:04,680 --> 01:10:08,360
you know, we've had those games
last year where we fell apart at
1281
01:10:08,360 --> 01:10:10,600
the end.
You know, think about the
1282
01:10:10,600 --> 01:10:12,040
Marshall game.
I know we always put on the
1283
01:10:12,040 --> 01:10:16,680
offense, but the defense gave up
all the second-half points, you
1284
01:10:16,680 --> 01:10:20,000
know, so and again, I think he
is a nice human being.
1285
01:10:20,000 --> 01:10:21,600
He's probably a great football
mind.
1286
01:10:21,920 --> 01:10:25,280
But it's like I think somebody
put in the chat about an hour
1287
01:10:25,280 --> 01:10:27,760
ago when we were first starting.
It doesn't feel like he has the
1288
01:10:27,760 --> 01:10:30,720
killer instinct mentality to be
A, to be a defensive
1289
01:10:30,720 --> 01:10:35,440
coordinator, which you have to
have, which you absolutely have
1290
01:10:35,440 --> 01:10:37,720
to have.
I need my defensive coordinators
1291
01:10:37,720 --> 01:10:40,560
to be sweaty.
I know Marv is black, but I want
1292
01:10:40,560 --> 01:10:45,840
him to be red like Kirby Smart
be, you know, freaking yelling
1293
01:10:45,840 --> 01:10:48,000
on the sideline like Will
Muschamp used to be.
1294
01:10:48,280 --> 01:10:51,280
I need to see you, like, get on
somebody.
1295
01:10:51,840 --> 01:10:53,360
I think we were in zero
coverage.
1296
01:10:53,360 --> 01:10:57,360
And you know, Monsieur comes up
and tries to jump around, misses
1297
01:10:57,360 --> 01:11:01,560
a tackle guy looks like he's
running with a peg leg and goes
1298
01:11:01,560 --> 01:11:05,360
and scores a touchdown.
And you know, it's 21 to three.
1299
01:11:05,760 --> 01:11:07,800
You get a stop right there.
If you just come up and tackle
1300
01:11:07,800 --> 01:11:11,360
that guy, I think it's 4th and
three or fourth and four,
1301
01:11:11,360 --> 01:11:13,520
something like that.
And you know, we see what
1302
01:11:13,520 --> 01:11:15,120
happens and that's a totally
different game.
1303
01:11:15,640 --> 01:11:18,600
When that happens, I want the
camera to pan to my defensive
1304
01:11:18,600 --> 01:11:21,080
coordinator and him to be a
wreck.
1305
01:11:21,120 --> 01:11:24,800
I want him to throw his headset.
I want him to grab the person
1306
01:11:24,800 --> 01:11:26,720
that mess.
I want, I want to see some
1307
01:11:26,720 --> 01:11:29,680
emotion, you know, I just think
our coaching staff is too nice,
1308
01:11:30,320 --> 01:11:32,120
you know, I think they follow
that from the head coach A.
1309
01:11:33,040 --> 01:11:36,120
Little too even keel, I think.
You won't even keel, but
1310
01:11:36,120 --> 01:11:38,520
sometimes it's.
You got to get angry.
1311
01:11:38,640 --> 01:11:41,320
You got to get angry.
You got to have another gear,
1312
01:11:41,320 --> 01:11:43,480
right?
Like, I think that's that,
1313
01:11:43,480 --> 01:11:46,200
that's what I think we're maybe
missing is that we don't have
1314
01:11:46,200 --> 01:11:51,440
that extra gear that this staff
can kind of light into when they
1315
01:11:51,440 --> 01:11:57,200
need to, to kind of bring things
back when the when the wheels
1316
01:11:57,200 --> 01:12:01,160
fall off a little bit.
All right, because because we we
1317
01:12:01,160 --> 01:12:02,960
see that snowball happen a lot
now.
1318
01:12:02,960 --> 01:12:05,840
It doesn't it doesn't happen
with the frequency that we saw
1319
01:12:06,920 --> 01:12:11,320
in year 1, but we're still
seeing that snowball effect
1320
01:12:11,320 --> 01:12:14,240
happened in these games.
We're just a lot more talented
1321
01:12:14,240 --> 01:12:17,840
now where it doesn't end up, you
know, being a completely fall
1322
01:12:17,840 --> 01:12:20,680
off the Cliff situation.
Yeah, I'm going to put up Jim
1323
01:12:20,680 --> 01:12:22,280
because Jim, appreciate the
answer man.
1324
01:12:22,280 --> 01:12:30,720
I actually I like this a lot
right here, but but that that's
1325
01:12:30,720 --> 01:12:33,920
another story.
By the way, Robbie agreeing with
1326
01:12:33,920 --> 01:12:37,280
the linebackers.
Y'all think Jim also asked, does
1327
01:12:37,280 --> 01:12:40,360
anybody bail on us?
Well, that's just the fact of
1328
01:12:40,360 --> 01:12:42,440
life.
Somebody could easily leave this
1329
01:12:42,440 --> 01:12:44,240
offseason and we wouldn't be
shocked.
1330
01:12:44,840 --> 01:12:51,200
So right, like, like, you know,
as much as Tally was joking on
1331
01:12:51,200 --> 01:12:55,600
Stu Holt, Caitlin de Boer might
be like, man, he knows how to do
1332
01:12:55,600 --> 01:12:57,800
punters and kickers.
We have that problem down at
1333
01:12:57,800 --> 01:13:00,680
Alabama.
Let me go pay him $750,000.
1334
01:13:00,680 --> 01:13:03,920
He knows how to train them.
That's just the fact of life and
1335
01:13:03,920 --> 01:13:06,520
coaching in general nowadays at
college football that if
1336
01:13:06,520 --> 01:13:09,800
somebody from a blue blood
program wants one of your guys,
1337
01:13:11,080 --> 01:13:12,600
they usually can write the
checks.
1338
01:13:14,440 --> 01:13:15,880
So, yeah.
All right.
1339
01:13:15,880 --> 01:13:18,240
Last question.
And by the way, told you I was
1340
01:13:18,240 --> 01:13:21,040
going to be an hour doing this.
I don't lie.
1341
01:13:21,680 --> 01:13:24,520
I know my, I know my boys here.
I know how we talk on this shit.
1342
01:13:25,120 --> 01:13:33,640
But if Brent Pry is let go and I
think Jim, you put it in there,
1343
01:13:34,200 --> 01:13:35,840
does Whip Babcock make that
decision?
1344
01:13:35,840 --> 01:13:37,160
Sheldon, I'm putting this on
you.
1345
01:13:37,440 --> 01:13:41,200
A, you work in athletic
departments before you are an
1346
01:13:41,200 --> 01:13:45,440
alumni out of the school.
Should Whip Babcock be the
1347
01:13:45,440 --> 01:13:51,720
person that makes that decision?
I would say, I would say no.
1348
01:13:51,800 --> 01:13:56,240
I think, you know, first of all,
Witt is certainly closing on the
1349
01:13:56,240 --> 01:13:58,800
end of his Virginia Tech tenure.
And that's not, you know, some
1350
01:13:58,800 --> 01:14:00,600
some drastic statement like he's
been here 10 years.
1351
01:14:00,600 --> 01:14:03,520
He's not going to be here for,
you know, an extreme long amount
1352
01:14:03,520 --> 01:14:05,840
of time.
Like, you know, you, you'll get
1353
01:14:05,840 --> 01:14:08,440
2 football hires if you mess up
on both of them.
1354
01:14:09,080 --> 01:14:11,640
That's probably all.
So, you know, I could see a
1355
01:14:11,640 --> 01:14:14,400
situation maybe Witt, you know,
a few years says, hey, you know
1356
01:14:14,400 --> 01:14:17,680
what, I'm moving on and then
maybe prior stays next day he
1357
01:14:17,680 --> 01:14:20,480
comes in can reevaluate things
from there.
1358
01:14:21,240 --> 01:14:27,120
But I do think that's his tenure
is certainly closer to to being
1359
01:14:27,200 --> 01:14:28,960
done than it is to being
started.
1360
01:14:29,360 --> 01:14:33,000
So.
Callie.
1361
01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:38,640
You got to get out of there.
He can't make no more highs.
1362
01:14:39,880 --> 01:14:41,360
You can't.
You can't make no more football
1363
01:14:41,400 --> 01:14:46,560
highs, buddy.
Sorry, I mean, again, I've
1364
01:14:46,560 --> 01:14:48,240
talked about this with a couple
people too.
1365
01:14:49,040 --> 01:14:54,040
When we hired Fuente like that
was a was that not a splash
1366
01:14:54,040 --> 01:14:55,880
hire?
Like that was Florida State did
1367
01:14:55,880 --> 01:14:58,280
the same thing.
That was a great hire.
1368
01:14:58,280 --> 01:15:02,120
Like when hired Norville, it was
like, man, Florida State did a
1369
01:15:02,120 --> 01:15:03,600
great job, you know what I'm
saying?
1370
01:15:04,160 --> 01:15:05,920
And then he takes him to the
playoffs and something.
1371
01:15:05,920 --> 01:15:09,120
So I can't put it all on wit,
you know what I'm saying?
1372
01:15:09,120 --> 01:15:10,800
Sometimes it just has to do with
fit.
1373
01:15:11,360 --> 01:15:14,600
I don't think Brett Pryor was a
bad hire, you know what I'm
1374
01:15:14,600 --> 01:15:16,920
saying?
So it's hard to answer that
1375
01:15:16,920 --> 01:15:19,280
question.
It just comes down to kind of
1376
01:15:19,280 --> 01:15:22,400
what Sheldon says.
It's like, OK, like, is it time
1377
01:15:22,400 --> 01:15:24,560
for him to move on?
Is it time for him to go ahead
1378
01:15:24,560 --> 01:15:27,600
and do something different?
And hopefully the next person
1379
01:15:27,600 --> 01:15:31,560
that comes in has a
concentration in something,
1380
01:15:31,720 --> 01:15:37,280
hopefully football.
But again, a lot of people rag
1381
01:15:37,280 --> 01:15:40,920
on Wit, but I don't think that
the highest that he made were
1382
01:15:42,440 --> 01:15:44,960
like erroneous.
Like, I don't think they were
1383
01:15:45,160 --> 01:15:47,880
crazy.
I just think that sometimes it
1384
01:15:47,880 --> 01:15:51,360
doesn't work out.
Now, do we stick with stuff too
1385
01:15:51,360 --> 01:15:53,320
long?
That may be more of the issue of
1386
01:15:53,640 --> 01:15:56,720
how long do you let somebody
stay before it's time for them
1387
01:15:56,720 --> 01:15:59,200
to go or you make them make
changes.
1388
01:16:01,160 --> 01:16:03,320
I I.
Will say this, I, I, I have a
1389
01:16:03,320 --> 01:16:08,080
bigger problem with not
necessarily who that he's picked
1390
01:16:08,120 --> 01:16:12,040
for a lot of these spots, but
maybe how he's managed them
1391
01:16:12,080 --> 01:16:15,680
after that pick.
And that's the tally's point a
1392
01:16:15,680 --> 01:16:19,920
little bit, whether it goes back
to how quickly you put yourself
1393
01:16:19,920 --> 01:16:23,240
behind the 8 ball with Fuentes
contract with that extension.
1394
01:16:24,240 --> 01:16:27,280
You know, we can talk about some
other things on the basketball
1395
01:16:27,280 --> 01:16:29,080
front.
I mean, there there are things
1396
01:16:29,080 --> 01:16:31,960
that I think we do sometimes
where we lock ourselves into bad
1397
01:16:31,960 --> 01:16:34,960
situations.
If you're wet, if you lock
1398
01:16:34,960 --> 01:16:37,600
yourself into a bad situation,
then you have to own it a little
1399
01:16:37,600 --> 01:16:41,360
bit more than you have.
And that means let your guy know
1400
01:16:41,600 --> 01:16:43,880
a if it's not working, you got
to do something different,
1401
01:16:44,200 --> 01:16:46,840
whether that's fire guys, hire
guys, do something.
1402
01:16:47,120 --> 01:16:52,200
You got to, if you going to put
yourself in a position where you
1403
01:16:52,880 --> 01:16:55,840
have less control over the
situation from a contract
1404
01:16:55,840 --> 01:16:59,600
standpoint, you have to govern
that a little more close to your
1405
01:16:59,600 --> 01:17:02,720
vest and not just be the guy
that's overseeing the big ship
1406
01:17:02,720 --> 01:17:05,440
here.
So that that's been my problem
1407
01:17:05,440 --> 01:17:08,560
with wit.
And to that point, you've had
1408
01:17:08,560 --> 01:17:11,480
two situations where you got
into this point you don't get
1409
01:17:11,480 --> 01:17:13,440
1/3.
Nah, Nope.
1410
01:17:14,640 --> 01:17:17,520
Sheldon, close this out.
Yeah.
1411
01:17:17,520 --> 01:17:20,320
So just to kind of, you know,
put a cap around the wit
1412
01:17:20,320 --> 01:17:23,560
discussion, I will say I think,
you know, wit's always been a
1413
01:17:23,560 --> 01:17:25,880
big baseball guy.
Like he played baseball at GMU
1414
01:17:25,920 --> 01:17:27,560
and I talked with John Chef one
time.
1415
01:17:27,560 --> 01:17:29,680
He he straight of told me like
he's perceived as a guy that
1416
01:17:29,680 --> 01:17:32,280
really gets baseball.
So that's kind of his sport.
1417
01:17:32,280 --> 01:17:34,840
That's his expertise And you
know, say H1 about the baseball
1418
01:17:34,840 --> 01:17:36,480
program.
I'm just doing doing a good on
1419
01:17:36,480 --> 01:17:40,400
that that rabbit hole.
But I think as an, as an AD,
1420
01:17:40,520 --> 01:17:44,280
like, you know, you have to have
a certain type of feel for what
1421
01:17:44,280 --> 01:17:45,920
support needs.
Like I was listening to a
1422
01:17:45,920 --> 01:17:48,200
podcast with a softball coach I
used to work with and she's
1423
01:17:48,200 --> 01:17:51,480
telling me like when she took
the job at the at, at the school
1424
01:17:51,480 --> 01:17:54,720
she was working at, like she had
an AD who really understood
1425
01:17:54,720 --> 01:17:57,320
softball and, and what that
program needed to be successful.
1426
01:17:57,680 --> 01:18:00,920
I think the issue with wit is
that he just does not have the
1427
01:18:01,720 --> 01:18:05,360
the football background to sort
of have a good feel for like,
1428
01:18:05,440 --> 01:18:08,040
you know, what, what good
coaching looks like and what the
1429
01:18:08,040 --> 01:18:10,080
program necessarily needs to be
successful.
1430
01:18:10,080 --> 01:18:13,080
And that's not to say that, you
know, everything's bad or, you
1431
01:18:13,080 --> 01:18:15,800
know, maybe pride does work out
eventually, But I just think
1432
01:18:15,800 --> 01:18:18,080
there's there's something
missing on a fundamental level
1433
01:18:18,120 --> 01:18:21,720
that that sort of stems from the
fact that witches isn't truly on
1434
01:18:21,720 --> 01:18:23,560
a fundamental level a big
football guy.
1435
01:18:23,880 --> 01:18:25,640
And I think you can kind of see
that kind of filter out to the
1436
01:18:25,640 --> 01:18:28,040
rest of the program.
All righty.
1437
01:18:28,640 --> 01:18:31,640
So there it is.
We told our truth as much as we
1438
01:18:31,640 --> 01:18:36,240
could on the situation.
Obviously, I think we all feel
1439
01:18:36,240 --> 01:18:38,760
this way and I don't think
anybody doesn't feel this way.
1440
01:18:39,200 --> 01:18:42,560
Where we stand right now,
changes have to be made.
1441
01:18:43,440 --> 01:18:46,680
Changes have to be made because
I'm like what somebody said in
1442
01:18:46,680 --> 01:18:50,360
the chat a little while ago.
We sat here in December.
1443
01:18:50,360 --> 01:18:51,520
I'm trying to get the exact
date.
1444
01:18:51,520 --> 01:18:52,960
When was the last press
conference?
1445
01:18:54,280 --> 01:18:56,240
December, probably my mama's
birthday.
1446
01:18:57,480 --> 01:19:03,400
December 2nd, yeah.
Second, if December 2nd, there
1447
01:19:03,400 --> 01:19:07,760
is not a discussion of so and so
have been let go, so and so has
1448
01:19:07,760 --> 01:19:09,520
been let go, so and so has been
let go.
1449
01:19:09,560 --> 01:19:12,600
We're moving forward.
Then guess what?
1450
01:19:13,240 --> 01:19:16,880
Somebody like me at A5, I'm
coming up with Tally and
1451
01:19:16,880 --> 01:19:19,600
Shelton.
I'm like at A7 because then it's
1452
01:19:19,600 --> 01:19:22,520
like, what are you doing?
What are you doing?
1453
01:19:22,520 --> 01:19:26,080
Like fucking is tally.
You put the record up a little
1454
01:19:26,080 --> 01:19:31,280
bit earlier to us. 15 and 1815
and 18 don't work.
1455
01:19:31,280 --> 01:19:33,480
Don't care if you win these last
three games, you get to 18 and
1456
01:19:33,480 --> 01:19:37,480
1818 and 18 does not work.
Especially when this is the
1457
01:19:37,480 --> 01:19:39,240
case.
You won an 11 and one score
1458
01:19:39,240 --> 01:19:39,840
games.
Yo.
1459
01:19:39,880 --> 01:19:41,720
He's 14 and seven in other
games.
1460
01:19:43,000 --> 01:19:46,720
You imagine flipping that
narrative of close games and
1461
01:19:46,720 --> 01:19:51,240
just split it in half and being
like 20 and 13, we'd be feeling
1462
01:19:51,240 --> 01:19:53,600
really good from where we were
in 2022.
1463
01:19:54,640 --> 01:19:56,800
But that is what it is.
Anything else y'all want to say
1464
01:19:56,800 --> 01:20:00,520
before we we do have to talk
about the keys to this game this
1465
01:20:00,520 --> 01:20:03,360
weekend?
And I know I told y'all this was
1466
01:20:03,360 --> 01:20:05,920
going to take a lot out of us.
We've been talking all this shit
1467
01:20:05,920 --> 01:20:11,280
for the last hour.
So anything else I'll give you
1468
01:20:11,280 --> 01:20:13,760
all I.
Got man, I've got it off my
1469
01:20:13,760 --> 01:20:15,320
chest.
I'm ready to move on.
1470
01:20:15,920 --> 01:20:19,120
Let's talk about the keys of
this Clemson game, let's talk
1471
01:20:19,120 --> 01:20:22,000
some predictions, and then let's
let's make some fun picks to
1472
01:20:22,000 --> 01:20:24,280
close this bitch out and then
y'all can go look at the
1473
01:20:24,280 --> 01:20:27,280
electoral maps if y'all want to.
No, I got that up over here.
1474
01:20:27,480 --> 01:20:30,520
Well, Brian, you said what's
your, what's your keys?
1475
01:20:32,840 --> 01:20:34,800
I mean, I think we already
talked about it a lot tonight
1476
01:20:34,800 --> 01:20:37,160
and it's going to it's going to
carry over here, man.
1477
01:20:37,200 --> 01:20:41,640
I need to see great situational
football from the coaches and
1478
01:20:41,640 --> 01:20:46,640
the players in this game.
Listen, I want to see.
1479
01:20:46,640 --> 01:20:51,760
That's the key to success.
All right, Sean Natali.
1480
01:20:53,040 --> 01:20:55,640
Well, I'll go next.
I just I mean, I hate to kind of
1481
01:20:55,640 --> 01:20:58,480
sound redundant and sound, you
know, say what Brian says, but
1482
01:20:58,840 --> 01:21:02,760
mine was coach you you have to
coach, you know, to beat
1483
01:21:02,760 --> 01:21:06,120
Clemson, you're going to have to
I don't even want to say out
1484
01:21:06,120 --> 01:21:07,600
coaching.
You're going to have to coach
1485
01:21:07,600 --> 01:21:08,920
them though.
You have to coach, you know,
1486
01:21:09,520 --> 01:21:11,320
you're going to have to make
adjustments.
1487
01:21:11,360 --> 01:21:15,520
You're going to have to have
some timeouts called at the
1488
01:21:15,520 --> 01:21:19,840
right times and certain.
You got to go in and coach, you
1489
01:21:19,840 --> 01:21:22,320
know, I'll even go a step
farther.
1490
01:21:23,200 --> 01:21:25,440
You got to coach like your job
depends on it.
1491
01:21:26,760 --> 01:21:28,760
That's going to be a quick key
to beating Clemson.
1492
01:21:29,200 --> 01:21:34,920
You can't be going in here and
happy that Hokey Nation showed
1493
01:21:34,920 --> 01:21:39,640
up and we sold out another game.
You got to be if we don't win
1494
01:21:39,640 --> 01:21:42,000
this game, this might be it,
right?
1495
01:21:42,360 --> 01:21:44,880
We we need to have that mindset
for the rest of the year as the
1496
01:21:44,880 --> 01:21:47,960
culture staff, in my opinion.
What about you, Sheldon?
1497
01:21:49,640 --> 01:21:52,560
Act like you're the better team.
I mean, we've seen Tech, you
1498
01:21:52,600 --> 01:21:55,080
know, handle handle competition
against against team that they
1499
01:21:55,080 --> 01:21:56,160
they should, that they're better
than.
1500
01:21:56,160 --> 01:21:58,480
And I think this is a game
where, you know, for the first
1501
01:21:58,480 --> 01:22:00,640
time in a long time, Vt has a
has a good chance to beat
1502
01:22:00,640 --> 01:22:01,800
Clemson.
I think they match up well.
1503
01:22:01,800 --> 01:22:04,240
I think that, you know, the the
teams aren't too different and
1504
01:22:04,240 --> 01:22:05,600
this again, that they're more
than capable of winning.
1505
01:22:05,600 --> 01:22:07,840
So come into the game acts like
you're the better team at
1506
01:22:08,080 --> 01:22:11,640
expecting that you should win.
I like that.
1507
01:22:11,880 --> 01:22:14,480
I'm going to go back to
something that a couple people
1508
01:22:14,480 --> 01:22:17,960
said earlier.
I want to see meanness.
1509
01:22:17,960 --> 01:22:21,280
And when I say meanness, not
only from the players or from
1510
01:22:21,280 --> 01:22:23,680
the coaches, I want to see Brent
Pryor this week because there's
1511
01:22:23,680 --> 01:22:27,120
going to be some bullshit call.
There's one every week to
1512
01:22:27,120 --> 01:22:29,720
fucking get in, slam something,
show emotion.
1513
01:22:29,720 --> 01:22:32,160
I want to see guys on the
sidelines show emotion.
1514
01:22:32,160 --> 01:22:34,480
I want to see if a player fucks
up.
1515
01:22:35,760 --> 01:22:37,640
I want to see the.
I mean, we saw Frank do it.
1516
01:22:37,640 --> 01:22:40,240
Y'all even older Frank would
grab a guy about a face mask and
1517
01:22:40,240 --> 01:22:42,120
get in their face.
We saw that.
1518
01:22:42,760 --> 01:22:45,160
Get mean.
Set a tone.
1519
01:22:46,120 --> 01:22:49,440
Because nice guys don't win
football games.
1520
01:22:49,520 --> 01:22:52,680
Assholes win football games and
we're playing too nice.
1521
01:22:53,280 --> 01:22:57,560
Get mean because I think one of
those wide receivers go across
1522
01:22:57,560 --> 01:22:59,880
the middle and most Phillips
lays the hammer on them.
1523
01:23:00,320 --> 01:23:01,960
Don't get a targeting penalty,
please.
1524
01:23:02,240 --> 01:23:03,600
We ain't good enough.
It's safety to lose.
1525
01:23:03,600 --> 01:23:07,560
Somebody set the tone, coaches
set the tone.
1526
01:23:07,920 --> 01:23:11,600
That's the key to me this week
and I'm going to go ahead and
1527
01:23:11,600 --> 01:23:15,240
roll into my prediction.
And as much as I want to see him
1528
01:23:15,240 --> 01:23:18,920
play mean, I think unfortunately
King, Clemson getting kicked in
1529
01:23:18,920 --> 01:23:22,080
the balls last weekend was not
good for us.
1530
01:23:22,560 --> 01:23:26,000
I think we play competitive, but
I do think we lose this game
1531
01:23:26,000 --> 01:23:30,440
somewhere in the neighborhood,
similar to Miami like a 3831
1532
01:23:30,440 --> 01:23:32,560
game.
I do think we put some points on
1533
01:23:32,560 --> 01:23:34,080
them, even though that defense
is good.
1534
01:23:35,000 --> 01:23:38,600
No one Capehart is out now, no
one Tooting likely back another
1535
01:23:38,600 --> 01:23:41,760
questionable I think.
I think they get us by a
1536
01:23:41,760 --> 01:23:48,360
touchdown.
Yeah, I said I'll go.
1537
01:23:48,400 --> 01:23:52,360
My prediction was I think it's
going to be a little bit more
1538
01:23:52,360 --> 01:23:55,880
than that.
Clemson probably about 45 to 28.
1539
01:23:56,040 --> 01:24:01,040
So we got too many people
injured, you know, from, you
1540
01:24:01,040 --> 01:24:03,120
know, process this person
questionable, questionable,
1541
01:24:03,120 --> 01:24:05,040
questionable.
They're probably not playing.
1542
01:24:05,480 --> 01:24:10,040
So I think we got too many
people injured to to come out
1543
01:24:10,040 --> 01:24:12,440
with a win in this game.
All right.
1544
01:24:13,640 --> 01:24:16,080
Yeah, I'm unfortunately not to
say Clemson.
1545
01:24:16,080 --> 01:24:18,080
A couple reasons.
Like Curtis said, they're going
1546
01:24:18,080 --> 01:24:20,320
to be pissed off coming to this
game, but they lost last week
1547
01:24:20,680 --> 01:24:23,120
and they have a full game of
film to study Schlee and the
1548
01:24:23,240 --> 01:24:26,320
backup running back.
So I just, I don't feel great
1549
01:24:26,320 --> 01:24:28,280
with the matchup.
I think V2 will backdoor cover
1550
01:24:28,520 --> 01:24:35,600
but Clemson wins 30 to 24.
I, I like the Tigers in this one
1551
01:24:35,600 --> 01:24:38,720
3428.
I just, I don't think we're
1552
01:24:38,720 --> 01:24:42,160
going to have enough gas in this
on either side of the football
1553
01:24:42,400 --> 01:24:45,400
to, to really get it done, take
care of business here.
1554
01:24:45,920 --> 01:24:47,920
I think it's going to be closer
than a lot of people are
1555
01:24:47,920 --> 01:24:50,560
thinking, especially after last
week and especially considering
1556
01:24:51,400 --> 01:24:52,880
who we may or may not have
playing.
1557
01:24:53,240 --> 01:24:55,920
I'm not really sure what to take
away from that because, you
1558
01:24:55,920 --> 01:24:59,240
know, last week we got a
probable designation and then
1559
01:24:59,960 --> 01:25:02,600
and then now we got a
questionable designation for
1560
01:25:02,920 --> 01:25:05,840
more players.
But so who who's going to really
1561
01:25:05,840 --> 01:25:08,640
know what that looks like?
But let me ask you this.
1562
01:25:08,640 --> 01:25:10,280
So we got our predictions in
there.
1563
01:25:10,720 --> 01:25:15,440
We all think the Tigers are
going to win and, and I'm going
1564
01:25:15,440 --> 01:25:17,640
to shout out Grayson Wimbish on
this one.
1565
01:25:17,640 --> 01:25:23,880
But if we win, is that going to
piss you off a little bit?
1566
01:25:24,960 --> 01:25:27,160
No.
Why?
1567
01:25:28,920 --> 01:25:35,800
So given given the outcomes in
Rutgers, Miami against Syracuse,
1568
01:25:36,200 --> 01:25:38,040
but then you go and beat
Clemson.
1569
01:25:38,200 --> 01:25:40,320
When it don't even matter.
Doesn't matter.
1570
01:25:40,360 --> 01:25:42,400
That could have mattered if
you'd have just taken care of
1571
01:25:42,400 --> 01:25:44,640
business.
Let me tell you, going to bed on
1572
01:25:44,640 --> 01:25:48,080
Saturday night with a win, I
don't give a fuck who it's over
1573
01:25:48,080 --> 01:25:50,040
is a hell of a lot better than
going to bed with a fucking
1574
01:25:50,040 --> 01:25:53,000
loss.
All right, so that's some dumb
1575
01:25:53,000 --> 01:25:55,280
bullshit.
Grayson, I love you, but that's
1576
01:25:55,280 --> 01:25:57,800
stupid.
I will be mad if we beat Clemson
1577
01:25:58,160 --> 01:26:01,840
because you say what you want to
say to what Jonathan Talley said
1578
01:26:01,840 --> 01:26:03,880
this year.
That'd be a signature.
1579
01:26:04,320 --> 01:26:07,080
There'd be kids saying, well,
they fucked up those games, but
1580
01:26:07,360 --> 01:26:11,000
they could be the team that
good, right?
1581
01:26:11,640 --> 01:26:16,000
Yeah, I won't be mad if we win.
I just know that we ain't so I
1582
01:26:16,000 --> 01:26:20,120
ain't even thinking about it.
Yeah, I always, always
1583
01:26:20,120 --> 01:26:22,360
appreciate every win you get,
especially because it's off 25
1584
01:26:22,360 --> 01:26:24,280
team.
You got to appreciate the win.
1585
01:26:24,320 --> 01:26:26,560
You also got to think, well, you
know, this gets you bowl
1586
01:26:26,560 --> 01:26:29,160
eligibility for you know,
whether you whether you care
1587
01:26:29,160 --> 01:26:30,840
about that or not, it.
Gets you there.
1588
01:26:30,840 --> 01:26:34,600
With two games left to play it's
frustrating though.
1589
01:26:34,600 --> 01:26:36,880
I I get it being frustrated.
I'm not going to be mad at the
1590
01:26:36,880 --> 01:26:39,240
win, but I can be frustrated at
the win.
1591
01:26:39,400 --> 01:26:43,320
You've proved against teams like
Miami and then you go against
1592
01:26:43,320 --> 01:26:45,840
the team and you take a win
against a team like Clemson.
1593
01:26:45,840 --> 01:26:50,240
You prove that you can do it.
Your your consistency and those
1594
01:26:50,480 --> 01:26:55,280
situational plays and coaching
mistakes have cost you a chance
1595
01:26:55,280 --> 01:26:59,680
to play for something more.
But what it tells you is who in
1596
01:26:59,680 --> 01:27:02,880
my room did so much better this
week.
1597
01:27:03,040 --> 01:27:07,360
That fucked up against Syracuse,
who fucked up against man,
1598
01:27:07,440 --> 01:27:09,280
because that's where your notes
need to be taken.
1599
01:27:09,720 --> 01:27:13,080
Oh, he's coaching his A off this
week, but what did he do?
1600
01:27:13,080 --> 01:27:15,040
Look at that week.
He was a little lackadaisical,
1601
01:27:16,320 --> 01:27:19,040
not as enthusiastic, not as
punishing, not as right in
1602
01:27:19,040 --> 01:27:21,080
people's faces.
Clemson week, he got up.
1603
01:27:21,800 --> 01:27:25,760
That's like players too, right?
You get mad at players like he's
1604
01:27:25,760 --> 01:27:28,200
trying to play his best right
now because it's the national
1605
01:27:28,200 --> 01:27:31,000
stage.
Play every game like that.
1606
01:27:33,560 --> 01:27:34,680
All right, sorry.
All right.
1607
01:27:35,160 --> 01:27:38,480
Anything else gentlemen as we
close the door on that and move
1608
01:27:38,480 --> 01:27:43,400
over to some gambling picks?
I'm all set buddy.
1609
01:27:43,640 --> 01:27:47,040
Let's do it.
Let's rock big screeners as we
1610
01:27:47,040 --> 01:27:53,120
get into Week 11, Week 11 and as
always, Brian Siegler kicks us
1611
01:27:53,120 --> 01:27:55,200
off.
Which part of the country are
1612
01:27:55,200 --> 01:27:58,320
you travelling to, Brian?
Hey, we're going back to
1613
01:27:58,320 --> 01:28:01,920
Nashville, baby.
We got the, the, the, the
1614
01:28:01,920 --> 01:28:05,680
Fighting Beamers heading to
Vandy.
1615
01:28:06,000 --> 01:28:10,600
Vandy getting 3 1/2 at home.
And I mean, I've Vandy has
1616
01:28:10,600 --> 01:28:15,200
played to the level of every
single opponent they faced this
1617
01:28:15,200 --> 01:28:17,520
season.
And I don't think that changes.
1618
01:28:18,000 --> 01:28:21,800
I think Vandy with that home
field advantage escapes.
1619
01:28:22,240 --> 01:28:23,600
I think they went out right
here.
1620
01:28:23,600 --> 01:28:27,520
So give me Vandy.
Yep, I'm, I'm with you.
1621
01:28:27,520 --> 01:28:32,160
I think South Carolina is coming
off the biggest win of Shane
1622
01:28:32,160 --> 01:28:35,600
Beamer's career down there.
And I think it's going to be a
1623
01:28:35,600 --> 01:28:38,440
let down game.
And I think it's also exactly
1624
01:28:38,440 --> 01:28:42,640
what you just said.
Brian Vanderbilt shows up every
1625
01:28:42,640 --> 01:28:45,240
week for who they play against.
Doesn't matter who it is, the
1626
01:28:45,240 --> 01:28:48,600
best team or the worst team.
So I think when they're a home
1627
01:28:48,600 --> 01:28:51,680
dog, give me the 3 1/2.
I think Vanderbilt wins outright
1628
01:28:51,680 --> 01:28:55,920
as well.
I actually took I took USC,
1629
01:28:56,480 --> 01:28:57,680
although Curtis makes a good
point.
1630
01:28:57,680 --> 01:28:59,880
That's like they they probably
do for an emotional let down,
1631
01:28:59,880 --> 01:29:02,040
but I don't know, I just, I
think they're, I think they're
1632
01:29:02,040 --> 01:29:04,200
legit.
I think I think, you know, Coach
1633
01:29:04,200 --> 01:29:05,600
Beaver's building up something
pretty special.
1634
01:29:05,600 --> 01:29:07,640
So I think, I think Vanny's due
for a loss too.
1635
01:29:09,920 --> 01:29:14,440
I took Vandy.
They got some voodoo man at that
1636
01:29:14,440 --> 01:29:16,520
field.
So I'm just going to say Vandy.
1637
01:29:18,240 --> 01:29:21,080
Until as long as they're playing
games there while that thing is
1638
01:29:21,080 --> 01:29:22,560
still under construction,
they're going to.
1639
01:29:22,560 --> 01:29:24,400
Have Yeah, some.
Sort of weird advantage.
1640
01:29:24,840 --> 01:29:27,880
Yeah, they're going to keep that
thing under construction for the
1641
01:29:27,880 --> 01:29:29,760
next like 10 years.
Yeah.
1642
01:29:30,440 --> 01:29:33,520
All right, Miranda goes Danny.
And rode along with the rest of
1643
01:29:33,520 --> 01:29:34,160
us there.
Shelton.
1644
01:29:34,160 --> 01:29:35,280
So you're out there on an
island.
1645
01:29:35,600 --> 01:29:38,160
He is on an island.
I'm I'm both in it, that's OK.
1646
01:29:38,200 --> 01:29:39,320
You guys are sheep.
That's OK.
1647
01:29:42,960 --> 01:29:47,080
All righty.
Well, I'm taking us to Atlanta
1648
01:29:47,080 --> 01:29:51,280
where the number four in the
CFP.
1649
01:29:51,400 --> 01:29:53,600
We didn't get to talk about that
tonight because we had to unload
1650
01:29:53,600 --> 01:29:56,600
our emotional baggage from
Virginia Tech, the number 4
1651
01:29:56,600 --> 01:30:01,400
ranked Miami Hurricanes go down
to Georgia Tech Georgia Tech
1652
01:30:01,400 --> 01:30:03,720
getting 11.
Haynes King.
1653
01:30:03,720 --> 01:30:06,080
I I did do some research on
that.
1654
01:30:06,320 --> 01:30:12,520
Still not sure if he's back or
not, but even if he's back, I
1655
01:30:12,520 --> 01:30:16,640
think when you saw last week
Miami starts putting the gears.
1656
01:30:16,840 --> 01:30:20,240
Duke has a good defense and when
they start putting the gears
1657
01:30:20,240 --> 01:30:25,000
down, you see it.
It's like they do not miss when
1658
01:30:25,000 --> 01:30:28,040
they're on offense.
They are going to score and
1659
01:30:28,040 --> 01:30:30,840
they're going to score a lot.
I think it's going to be an
1660
01:30:30,840 --> 01:30:37,360
entertaining game.
Give me 4528 Miami.
1661
01:30:39,960 --> 01:30:41,240
Yeah, Curtis, I'm with you
there.
1662
01:30:41,720 --> 01:30:44,080
I think Miami's just got too
much offense.
1663
01:30:44,600 --> 01:30:48,840
Even if King is able to go, I
don't think Georgia Tech's gonna
1664
01:30:48,840 --> 01:30:50,520
be able to keep up with that
Miami offense.
1665
01:30:50,520 --> 01:30:53,680
So I think the Hurricanes will
win by about two touchdowns
1666
01:30:53,680 --> 01:30:56,880
here.
Shell, I think, I feel like
1667
01:30:56,880 --> 01:31:00,080
Miami's due for a sloppy game.
They'll still win but I think
1668
01:31:00,640 --> 01:31:03,360
King with her a couple dumb
picks and maybe GTO surprising
1669
01:31:03,360 --> 01:31:07,680
people a little bit.
All right, I'm, I'm going Miami.
1670
01:31:11,320 --> 01:31:14,920
See, is he an island again?
Nope.
1671
01:31:15,240 --> 01:31:17,400
He's not joining him this week,
right Is joining him on this
1672
01:31:17,400 --> 01:31:19,640
one.
Sticking with the the rest of
1673
01:31:19,640 --> 01:31:23,480
the fellows here, all righty.
Shelton Moss, you have the next
1674
01:31:23,480 --> 01:31:26,200
one, Sir.
I was super excited about this
1675
01:31:26,200 --> 01:31:30,200
game, the Holy War, a state that
have a a a clear affection for
1676
01:31:30,200 --> 01:31:34,600
in Utah match up of a team in
BYU that's been moving up the
1677
01:31:34,600 --> 01:31:36,520
CIP rankings with each and
everyone.
1678
01:31:37,080 --> 01:31:38,800
I think it's kind of falling off
of Utah, but you know, still
1679
01:31:38,800 --> 01:31:41,160
have some good talent that team.
So I think it'll be an
1680
01:31:41,160 --> 01:31:42,760
interesting game.
I'm going to take Utah.
1681
01:31:42,760 --> 01:31:44,880
I think they'll be motivated in
a big rivalry game.
1682
01:31:44,880 --> 01:31:47,600
I don't know whatever what
trophy they call it, but
1683
01:31:47,600 --> 01:31:49,560
whatever trophy it is, they'll
they'll keep it in Salt Lake
1684
01:31:49,560 --> 01:31:54,120
City.
I dig that and I'm riding with
1685
01:31:54,120 --> 01:31:57,880
you there, Sheldon.
I think this does come down to a
1686
01:31:57,880 --> 01:32:00,720
field goal there at the end.
But I think that, you know, 4
1687
01:32:00,720 --> 01:32:04,240
points at home, this type of
rivalry, just a little too rich
1688
01:32:04,240 --> 01:32:05,720
for my blood.
So give me Utah.
1689
01:32:07,040 --> 01:32:10,200
All right, first of all, they
play for the beehive boot in the
1690
01:32:10,200 --> 01:32:13,520
Holy War.
That's beehive boot.
1691
01:32:13,520 --> 01:32:16,680
Everybody looked at one of those
interesting things.
1692
01:32:18,200 --> 01:32:22,960
BYU ranked 9th in the CFP.
Y'all can see they would be the
1693
01:32:22,960 --> 01:32:25,400
four seed.
They would get a buy if things
1694
01:32:25,400 --> 01:32:28,480
hold out.
But in this one, being in Salt
1695
01:32:28,480 --> 01:32:30,800
Lake City, being at Utah, Utah
four and four.
1696
01:32:31,040 --> 01:32:33,440
By the way, you want to talk
about a team with expectations
1697
01:32:33,440 --> 01:32:38,040
that have fell flat?
Utah preseason top ten now 500.
1698
01:32:38,320 --> 01:32:40,840
Y'all imagine if we were ranked
10th and we were five and four
1699
01:32:41,400 --> 01:32:44,080
y'all, Y'all thinking hours long
would have done tonight?
1700
01:32:44,080 --> 01:32:45,920
Oh no, we would have been going
for two just.
1701
01:32:45,920 --> 01:32:48,280
A What if you was ranked 10th
and you were one in seven?
1702
01:32:48,600 --> 01:32:50,120
It's not, yeah, it's not FSU
rock.
1703
01:32:50,120 --> 01:32:54,240
Bottom it ain't FSU rock bottom,
but still it they should have
1704
01:32:54,240 --> 01:32:56,920
been better, but I'm kind of
with Brian.
1705
01:32:56,920 --> 01:32:59,040
I think I'll think Utah with the
points.
1706
01:32:59,080 --> 01:33:06,280
I think BYU probably sneaks it
out the tally.
1707
01:33:06,280 --> 01:33:08,720
What are you thinking, man?
I'm going to take BYU, man.
1708
01:33:09,800 --> 01:33:15,240
I just think, you know, they're
playing good ball and Utah is
1709
01:33:15,240 --> 01:33:18,320
not.
So it's going to be a holy war
1710
01:33:18,320 --> 01:33:23,120
and BYU is going to be on the
side of the Lord or whatever
1711
01:33:23,120 --> 01:33:26,280
they, whatever they, their
version of the Lord all.
1712
01:33:28,600 --> 01:33:33,880
Right, we got Miranda taking
Utah, Jason, Ron with Tally
1713
01:33:34,280 --> 01:33:38,760
saying go Cougars, go Cougars.
Oh, Tally, Tally.
1714
01:33:39,760 --> 01:33:41,720
Oh, you showed me what?
Go ahead.
1715
01:33:41,720 --> 01:33:46,160
Let's talk about it.
Alabama, LSU, man, it is always,
1716
01:33:46,240 --> 01:33:49,880
always a good game of a good
rivalry game here.
1717
01:33:50,520 --> 01:33:52,720
Everybody gets together down
here for that game.
1718
01:33:52,720 --> 01:33:55,480
It's, you know, similar to the
Iron Bowl.
1719
01:33:56,320 --> 01:34:01,040
Those games used to be like
knock down drag outs 6 to 9,
1720
01:34:01,600 --> 01:34:04,360
three to six games between
Alabama and LSU.
1721
01:34:04,640 --> 01:34:08,440
Might have times changed where
the offenses are different, but
1722
01:34:09,000 --> 01:34:14,360
just because it is going to LSUI
think that LSU is going to pull
1723
01:34:14,360 --> 01:34:16,920
this game out.
I think they probably beat
1724
01:34:16,920 --> 01:34:19,240
Alabama by about 7 is what I
would think.
1725
01:34:19,800 --> 01:34:21,840
By the way, LSU is getting the
points, Brian.
1726
01:34:22,840 --> 01:34:29,320
LSU is a home dog on that one.
And what about you, Brian?
1727
01:34:30,480 --> 01:34:32,360
Did I put it in here wrong?
That's yeah, you put it, you
1728
01:34:32,360 --> 01:34:33,360
flip-flopped.
That's fine.
1729
01:34:33,560 --> 01:34:35,480
We can correct it.
Yeah, that's my.
1730
01:34:35,560 --> 01:34:39,680
It's all right.
Yeah, that's why I was riding
1731
01:34:39,680 --> 01:34:43,640
with Alabama here.
I, I, I think Alabama is going
1732
01:34:43,640 --> 01:34:45,320
to going to win this by at least
a touchdown all.
1733
01:34:46,960 --> 01:34:48,960
Right.
I'm going with tally with this
1734
01:34:48,960 --> 01:34:53,040
one.
I think LSU is, I think after
1735
01:34:53,040 --> 01:34:55,840
the loss to A and MI think they
bounced back.
1736
01:34:55,840 --> 01:35:00,600
This isn't the Alabama of old
being at Death Valley at night.
1737
01:35:00,600 --> 01:35:02,680
I think that's enough.
I think, Kyle, I think you're
1738
01:35:02,680 --> 01:35:04,160
about right.
I think I think a touchdown's
1739
01:35:04,160 --> 01:35:06,640
about right.
And probably like a 3138 game is
1740
01:35:07,000 --> 01:35:08,640
going to be fun to watch
Saturday night.
1741
01:35:09,280 --> 01:35:13,000
And I think that with that, that
effectively is going to keep out
1742
01:35:13,280 --> 01:35:15,080
Bama's not making a playoff
after this game.
1743
01:35:17,360 --> 01:35:20,840
Yeah, I'm taking, I'm, I'm
taking Bama.
1744
01:35:20,840 --> 01:35:23,240
They're kind of for bye week.
I think they're going to stop
1745
01:35:23,240 --> 01:35:25,200
them honestly.
I mean, not, not too big a win,
1746
01:35:25,200 --> 01:35:27,200
but they'll come out and they'll
they'll handle business.
1747
01:35:27,960 --> 01:35:30,520
All right, this is an
elimination game, pretty much.
1748
01:35:32,560 --> 01:35:35,040
One of these teams will not make
the playoff, whoever loses this
1749
01:35:35,040 --> 01:35:36,440
game.
So there's tally.
1750
01:35:36,440 --> 01:35:42,240
We're together, Miranda with us.
We got a split house here on
1751
01:35:42,240 --> 01:35:46,880
this game.
All righty Miranda is going out
1752
01:35:46,880 --> 01:35:49,560
to Lubbock where again we got
another home dog.
1753
01:35:49,560 --> 01:35:52,280
Texas Tech land 3 1/2 to
Colorado.
1754
01:35:52,600 --> 01:35:55,600
Colorado a sneaky 6 and two
right now.
1755
01:35:55,600 --> 01:36:00,280
Texas Tech coming off the big
upset over Iowa State last week.
1756
01:36:00,800 --> 01:36:03,040
Brian Siegler, How do you see
this from playing out?
1757
01:36:04,160 --> 01:36:06,200
I mean, you got to give Dion
some credit.
1758
01:36:06,200 --> 01:36:09,200
He's accomplished probably what
the goal of this team was eight
1759
01:36:09,200 --> 01:36:13,080
games into the year, sitting
there at 6:00 and 2:00.
1760
01:36:13,080 --> 01:36:16,680
So I'm I'm riding with the the
Buffaloes here.
1761
01:36:18,680 --> 01:36:20,320
Yep, I I'm right with you on
that.
1762
01:36:20,320 --> 01:36:23,840
I think Texas Tech it's again to
get up again.
1763
01:36:24,520 --> 01:36:26,360
I don't think they'll do it even
at home.
1764
01:36:27,400 --> 01:36:29,920
I I just don't I just don't see
this happening.
1765
01:36:30,040 --> 01:36:32,040
Give me Colorado.
I like 3 1/2.
1766
01:36:33,080 --> 01:36:35,560
Man, that color offense is above
star right now.
1767
01:36:35,560 --> 01:36:37,280
I don't think they're going to
stop anytime soon.
1768
01:36:37,360 --> 01:36:39,240
I think they're going to going
to go to 7:00 and 2:00.
1769
01:36:41,320 --> 01:36:46,480
Yeah, give me Colorado as well.
I've not watched one play from
1770
01:36:46,480 --> 01:36:50,760
Texas Tech is mainly the only
reason that I say it Colorado.
1771
01:36:50,760 --> 01:36:55,880
But I do think Colorado wins.
And we are rolling as a.
1772
01:36:56,000 --> 01:36:58,840
Oh man, well, we didn't put the
voodoo curse right there.
1773
01:36:58,840 --> 01:37:02,480
Colorado going to lose about 20
points now because we all rode
1774
01:37:02,480 --> 01:37:05,280
together on this one.
All righty.
1775
01:37:05,520 --> 01:37:09,160
Last but not least, as always,
let's end with the song Our
1776
01:37:09,160 --> 01:37:11,800
Music Man with Michigan,
Indiana.
1777
01:37:23,000 --> 01:37:32,080
When I was born in a small town
and I lived in a small town, I'd
1778
01:37:32,200 --> 01:37:36,240
probably die.
A small town, small home,
1779
01:37:37,960 --> 01:37:43,720
community at home afraid.
This is a small town where
1780
01:37:45,880 --> 01:37:51,000
parents live in the same small
town, my God's.
1781
01:37:51,040 --> 01:37:58,560
A small town without a little
lava to the thinking hope.
1782
01:38:12,680 --> 01:38:15,240
Hey folks, it's Jamie.
Hat to a little John Mellencamp.
1783
01:38:15,240 --> 01:38:17,160
He's one of Indiana's favorite
sons.
1784
01:38:17,160 --> 01:38:19,960
And that's where I'm headed for
this week's edition of Guitar
1785
01:38:19,960 --> 01:38:23,560
Licks and Gambling Picks.
Michigan travels to Indiana on
1786
01:38:23,560 --> 01:38:27,280
Saturday and the Hoosiers have
been flat out rolling this year.
1787
01:38:27,480 --> 01:38:29,800
They are 9 and O, and they're
eight and one against the
1788
01:38:29,800 --> 01:38:33,200
spread.
So I'm going to take Indiana -12
1789
01:38:33,200 --> 01:38:35,920
1/2 points this Saturday against
Michigan.
1790
01:38:40,040 --> 01:38:43,720
Though I cannot feel for where
these I come.
1791
01:38:44,000 --> 01:38:47,240
From my head.
Forgive the people who really
1792
01:38:47,360 --> 01:38:51,360
love me when I keep myself here
in a small town and people
1793
01:38:51,360 --> 01:38:54,960
letting me Jesus will want to be
in.
1794
01:38:59,120 --> 01:39:14,240
Yeah.
I can't believe I'm saying it,
1795
01:39:14,240 --> 01:39:19,240
being a Sycamore and all.
But go Hoosiers. -12 1/2 versus
1796
01:39:19,240 --> 01:39:20,680
Michigan.
See you next week.
1797
01:39:23,600 --> 01:39:27,240
All righty, there we go, Jason
taking Indiana there.
1798
01:39:27,240 --> 01:39:29,480
John Mellencamp.
I'm surprised he did not do Jack
1799
01:39:29,480 --> 01:39:31,960
and Diane so he could, say,
sucking on chili dogs outside.
1800
01:39:32,000 --> 01:39:35,520
Tasty bees.
We don't need all that sucking
1801
01:39:35,520 --> 01:39:38,240
on chili dogs, homie.
Hey, if they hey, if they keep
1802
01:39:38,240 --> 01:39:41,240
winning, he going probably put
the Ohio State game on there and
1803
01:39:41,240 --> 01:39:42,800
he might do another Mellencamp
song.
1804
01:39:42,800 --> 01:39:45,200
Let's move on.
He's taking Indiana.
1805
01:39:45,200 --> 01:39:47,080
He is laying a boat.
Ton of points.
1806
01:39:47,320 --> 01:39:49,960
What are you doing, Brian?
And that's the problem with this
1807
01:39:49,960 --> 01:39:52,600
one, man 12 1/2 is just a little
too rich for my blood.
1808
01:39:52,600 --> 01:39:58,040
I think Michigan keeps it close
and Hoosiers win, but it's
1809
01:39:58,040 --> 01:40:01,080
tight.
Yep, I, I I'm with you on that.
1810
01:40:01,080 --> 01:40:04,040
I think Michigan's going to get
up for this 112 1/2 too much and
1811
01:40:04,040 --> 01:40:05,840
we caught the line early at
things up.
1812
01:40:05,840 --> 01:40:10,160
I think it's 14 now.
I'm going to check out on the on
1813
01:40:10,160 --> 01:40:11,960
the book real quick, but I.
Think it needs to.
1814
01:40:12,040 --> 01:40:13,840
It needs to be at least like 9
1/2.
1815
01:40:13,840 --> 01:40:17,520
Before I would have been.
Man, I'm telling you, Sheldon
1816
01:40:17,520 --> 01:40:20,200
Moth.
Yeah, India is definitely going
1817
01:40:20,200 --> 01:40:23,120
to win, but Michigan will do
just enough to cover.
1818
01:40:23,120 --> 01:40:25,040
I think they've got they've got
enough talent to keep a little
1819
01:40:25,040 --> 01:40:26,880
bit close even though they're
having a big down year
1820
01:40:26,880 --> 01:40:29,760
obviously.
Huge down your tally.
1821
01:40:30,240 --> 01:40:32,920
Yamaga, Michigan.
Mine is too big.
1822
01:40:34,240 --> 01:40:37,600
Too big, too big, man.
Everybody's against the music
1823
01:40:37,600 --> 01:40:38,920
man this week.
Everybody gets.
1824
01:40:38,920 --> 01:40:41,320
And by the way, that line did
hit the 14.
1825
01:40:42,640 --> 01:40:45,760
Wow man.
All right, so that a.
1826
01:40:46,040 --> 01:40:48,880
Lot of money's coming in on them
because they are on a hot streak
1827
01:40:48,880 --> 01:40:50,240
so.
I they are and they're blowing
1828
01:40:50,480 --> 01:40:54,960
and they're blowing teams out.
They're putting teams to bed, by
1829
01:40:54,960 --> 01:40:56,880
the way.
It's, it's the, the narrative in
1830
01:40:56,880 --> 01:40:58,960
the last few years, too, has
also flipped.
1831
01:40:58,960 --> 01:41:02,560
You can hire an old coach.
You can hire somebody in their
1832
01:41:02,560 --> 01:41:07,120
60s and you can do shit.
Signeti's 62 years old.
1833
01:41:08,840 --> 01:41:12,760
So I I I am huh?
He's got the juice.
1834
01:41:13,080 --> 01:41:16,240
He got the juice all right.
Anything else y'all want to add
1835
01:41:16,240 --> 01:41:18,240
before we get a wrap on this
thing tonight?
1836
01:41:20,480 --> 01:41:22,760
I got nothing, man.
Just go play.
1837
01:41:23,160 --> 01:41:24,720
Just go play football on
Saturday.
1838
01:41:25,560 --> 01:41:27,240
Go play football.
It's 330.
1839
01:41:27,240 --> 01:41:30,040
All right, well, that is going

1869
01:43:01,360 --> 01:43:03,040
but as always, let's go.
