We're glad you're with us. 19 00:01:21.920 --> 00:01:25.400 Tigers opened up a six game road trip, first of three in Arizona tonight. 20 00:01:25.439 --> 00:01:30.920 Trek Scooble gets the call. Jack Flaherty will pitch game two, Matt 21 00:01:30.959 --> 00:01:34.799 manning game three. They need runs, they're not getting them at all. 22 00:01:34.439 --> 00:01:38.359 They take out on Arizona team that is a couple of games under five hundred, 23 00:01:38.400 --> 00:01:42.159 but they have played decent ball as of late, winning seven of their 24 00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:47.840 last ten. If you missed it, last night, Vancouver scored a late 25 00:01:47.920 --> 00:01:53.200 goal in the third. They trim Edmonton three to two. They came back 26 00:01:53.239 --> 00:01:57.519 from one to nothing down and two to one down. They lead the series 27 00:01:57.560 --> 00:02:00.959 three games to two. The Rangers game was on believable man. It was 28 00:02:00.959 --> 00:02:05.879 a three to one Carolina lead heading into the third at home, and the 29 00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:10.360 Rangers score four times. The last one is an empty netter, a natural 30 00:02:10.360 --> 00:02:16.639 hat trick for Chris Kreider, and he leads them into the Eastern Conference finals. 31 00:02:17.280 --> 00:02:22.360 Crider joins Mark Messier and Wayne Gretzky, is the only Rangers to score 32 00:02:22.439 --> 00:02:27.719 three goals in a period in a playoff game, and the Rangers are the 33 00:02:27.719 --> 00:02:30.280 only President's Trophy winner in the last ten years to reach the conference finals. 34 00:02:32.080 --> 00:02:38.000 In basketball, Minnesota staves off elimination. Anthony Edwards had twenty seven to lead 35 00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:43.520 the Timberwolves to a blowout win of Denver one point fifteen to seventy. The 36 00:02:43.639 --> 00:02:46.479 Nuggets, for as good as they are that are defending world champions, they 37 00:02:46.520 --> 00:02:52.479 are a team that is to be reckoned with. Without question. They've got 38 00:02:52.560 --> 00:02:54.840 superstars. They got the MVP. They shot thirty percent from the floor. 39 00:02:57.360 --> 00:03:06.080 Game seven is Day and the PGA Championship. The one hundred and six playing 40 00:03:06.199 --> 00:03:12.800 at Valhalla has some incredible names atop the board, led by Xander Schoffley, 41 00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:15.960 who card it a nine hunder sixty two. The fourth man. Actually he's 42 00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:21.280 the third man because he's done it twice. To ever carred a sixty two 43 00:03:22.520 --> 00:03:25.120 in a major. He did it last year at the US Open. He 44 00:03:25.159 --> 00:03:30.479 did it this year in Round one of the PGA Championship on a course that 45 00:03:30.599 --> 00:03:32.960 is supposed to be very challenging. I've never played it. Over seventy six 46 00:03:34.039 --> 00:03:40.319 hundred yards, sixty four men were in red figures. That's pretty damn good. 47 00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:46.800 The defending champion is Brooks Koepka. He's at four under, so is 48 00:03:46.800 --> 00:03:51.919 Scotti Scheffler, who is detained by police before the start of the second round 49 00:03:51.960 --> 00:04:00.879 today because around five am, a bystander was walking across the street near Valhalla 50 00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:03.879 Golf Club in the bus lane and was struck by a bus at five o'clock 51 00:04:03.919 --> 00:04:13.560 this morning, so they had some parts of it marked off. Scheffler drove 52 00:04:13.680 --> 00:04:18.759 by that marked off area. A police officer launched himself onto his car, 53 00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:23.800 told him to get out. Scheffler gets out. He throws Scheffler up against 54 00:04:23.839 --> 00:04:29.199 the car and puts him in handcuffs. The championship was delayed because of that 55 00:04:29.319 --> 00:04:34.920 deadly crash, so they're about to get underway. Scheffler, by the way, 56 00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:42.079 from all intentsive purposes, just a really good dude. Apparently, after 57 00:04:42.120 --> 00:04:46.519 a misunderstanding with traffic, they take him, they put him in handcuffs, 58 00:04:46.839 --> 00:04:50.920 they get situated, everything's figured out. Scheffler's ready to play round two. 59 00:04:53.639 --> 00:04:57.759 There you go, that's what's going on in the world of sports. Let's 60 00:04:57.800 --> 00:05:00.600 go to the phone lines. The Meyer hotline is open for you, and 61 00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:04.040 our friend Freddie is standing by on a Friday morning. Freddie, good morning, 62 00:05:04.040 --> 00:05:10.959 how are you a chef? When I find interesting about Scheffler is uh, 63 00:05:11.560 --> 00:05:15.000 not the situation, but a bunning star that people don't even know. 64 00:05:15.399 --> 00:05:17.839 If you walk, if we delivered a pizza to year of the house, 65 00:05:17.839 --> 00:05:20.680 you won't even know who, not you, but most people won't even know 66 00:05:20.720 --> 00:05:26.439 what he looks like. That's the funny thing everyone, But don't tell you 67 00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:31.839 what as long as it's your pizza. Yeah, well, well yeah, 68 00:05:32.399 --> 00:05:35.360 I just gotchers. It's just you know, I don't I don't get to 69 00:05:35.360 --> 00:05:40.040 see him play much because I'm still kind of bitter, a lout in my 70 00:05:40.079 --> 00:05:43.279 favorite with the favorites what to have lived, So I don't watch as much, 71 00:05:43.319 --> 00:05:46.959 you know so, but just out of curiosity? Why does it make 72 00:05:47.000 --> 00:05:50.720 you bitter? Because I don't get to watch them. I don't know, 73 00:05:50.759 --> 00:05:54.160 I don't know where they're at, I don't know what channel they're on, 74 00:05:54.279 --> 00:05:58.279 I don't know what's where they're streaming at. And these are the guys. 75 00:05:59.360 --> 00:06:03.839 JT was Why am I drama blank? Right? Because you just talked about 76 00:06:03.839 --> 00:06:08.480 Wayne Gretzky, his son in law. I'm drawing a blank right now. 77 00:06:11.800 --> 00:06:15.600 Who are you talking about? No, Wayne Gretzky, son in law? 78 00:06:15.800 --> 00:06:18.439 Why am I drawing a ball Dustin, Dustin Johnson, Dustin Johnson, sorry, 79 00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:21.560 Dustin Johnson. Yeah, you don't get to see him play anymore because 80 00:06:23.079 --> 00:06:25.879 you know, he went to live and you know stuff like that, and 81 00:06:26.160 --> 00:06:28.199 I just, you know, I want him to stand the PGA tour. 82 00:06:28.360 --> 00:06:31.279 So I get it. But if you have if you have the Internet, 83 00:06:31.279 --> 00:06:36.120 if you have YouTube, you can watch them. Yeah. Well yeah, 84 00:06:36.160 --> 00:06:41.920 well I'm not gonna do it. So but before I before I get to 85 00:06:41.920 --> 00:06:46.920 the Tigers, you said something interesting about the New York Rangers. How Wayne 86 00:06:46.920 --> 00:06:51.800 Gretzky and Mark and Mark Messier where there's only two guys, isn't there Isn't 87 00:06:51.800 --> 00:06:56.560 it amazing for a team like the New York Rangers. It took two and 88 00:06:56.720 --> 00:07:02.399 Theton Oilers to break that record. Most young people wouldn't even know those guys 89 00:07:02.439 --> 00:07:06.399 played for the Edmonton Oynists. Yeah, pretty impressive stuff. Yeah, well, 90 00:07:06.439 --> 00:07:09.959 I'm sure a lot of people don't know. Young people don't know that 91 00:07:10.040 --> 00:07:12.920 Wayne Gretzky also, you know, played for the Saint Louis Blues. So 92 00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:18.519 anyway, exactly, anyway, so hobby bias, I gotta tell you, 93 00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:24.839 I am so tired of hearing about hobby bias. You turn on any station, 94 00:07:25.360 --> 00:07:29.079 read something, it's always about a hobby bias. So you know, 95 00:07:29.480 --> 00:07:32.920 no one has a solution, and you know, I don't know. Sometimes 96 00:07:32.920 --> 00:07:40.720 I feel like for the Tigers, maybe it's all everyone's talking about and they're 97 00:07:40.720 --> 00:07:45.240 not really talking about what's really going on, the guys not hitting, or 98 00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:48.000 the team's not hitting, or struggles here, struggles there. So let's keep 99 00:07:48.079 --> 00:07:55.120 hobby around and and uh, you know, for me, if it was 100 00:07:55.160 --> 00:07:59.319 for me, and I'm about this is this is my my opinion. You 101 00:07:59.360 --> 00:08:01.959 know, I steptually earlier in the week, I threw all some ideas like, 102 00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:07.439 hey, trade a bad contract for a bad contract. I've heard attached 103 00:08:07.439 --> 00:08:11.560 a top prospect get rid of them. I would not do that. I 104 00:08:11.560 --> 00:08:15.600 would not get rid of a top prospect just so a team could take them. 105 00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:18.160 But that if it was for me, Yeah, if it was me, 106 00:08:18.519 --> 00:08:22.079 I listen, I'm a businessman, but I don't loan a billion dollar 107 00:08:22.120 --> 00:08:24.160 corporation, so I'm not I'm not in the equation. But I am a 108 00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:28.839 businessman and I've done I've made mistakes, and I've taken lasses and I've had 109 00:08:28.839 --> 00:08:33.200 to take losses, and I think it's it's it's really getting to the point 110 00:08:33.200 --> 00:08:39.559 where you know, the only may have to buy him out because this is 111 00:08:39.679 --> 00:08:43.799 all everyone's talking about. Sheep is hobby biased. It's getting annoying, and 112 00:08:45.679 --> 00:08:48.279 he may have to pay him off to get rid of him. I mean, 113 00:08:48.320 --> 00:08:54.799 what are your thoughts about that? Well, you're talking about ninety eight 114 00:08:54.799 --> 00:08:58.600 million dollars. It's sexually seventy three, but ninety eight if you include this 115 00:08:58.720 --> 00:09:01.720 year. So I mean, it's it's easy for me to say that. 116 00:09:01.799 --> 00:09:05.320 It's easy for me to say, just buy him out. Give him the 117 00:09:05.320 --> 00:09:09.159 twenty five million this year, give him twenty five next year, and give 118 00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:13.200 him forty eight over the following two years. Would you do that? What? 119 00:09:13.320 --> 00:09:16.519 You're gonna pay him, but you're gonna pay him if he's here, 120 00:09:16.679 --> 00:09:20.200 or or you pay him off. No, correct, Yeah, but at 121 00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:24.080 least with at least if you have him here, and thanks to the phone 122 00:09:24.120 --> 00:09:26.559 call I got, I got to get to a break. At least with 123 00:09:26.600 --> 00:09:31.120 having him here, you get a chance to turn him around. If you 124 00:09:31.159 --> 00:09:35.679 think he's a completely lost cause, then you can cut him and see if 125 00:09:35.720 --> 00:09:39.080 somebody else wants to pick him up, and then pay the salary. It's 126 00:09:39.120 --> 00:09:43.600 not going to happen, though. It's just not going to because no team 127 00:09:43.679 --> 00:09:46.399 is going to do that. You're not going to trade him, and you're 128 00:09:46.440 --> 00:09:50.200 sure as hell don't trade a top prospect, let's say a Jackson Job, 129 00:09:50.559 --> 00:09:52.919 a Cole Keith, whoever it may be in your system. You sure as 130 00:09:52.960 --> 00:09:56.960 hell don't do that. Oh, please take one of my best prospects so 131 00:09:58.039 --> 00:10:01.759 I can get rid of the worst player my team. There's no logic to 132 00:10:01.799 --> 00:10:07.279 that whatsoever. We're back with more after this on Exis and Bros. In 133 00:10:07.399 --> 00:10:13.080 the Dan with Dan Dickerson.

Well there's a reason for that. You know, this is not 166 00:13:56.879 --> 00:14:01.480 a promotional. This isn't what Caitlin Clark you know, where it's over exposed. 167 00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:05.720 She had nine points in her home debut last night and they got blown 168 00:14:05.720 --> 00:14:09.440 out by New York. Not that I want to tell you, not that 169 00:14:09.440 --> 00:14:13.799 we're going to talk about it. I'm just letting you know. She and 170 00:14:13.840 --> 00:14:16.200 it's no fault of her. It's the media jumping all over it. But 171 00:14:16.360 --> 00:14:20.639 when you have two point three million people watch your first game, when you 172 00:14:20.679 --> 00:14:24.120 sell out, you're on national TV on every game, and you sell out 173 00:14:24.519 --> 00:14:31.320 your home ticket allotments, people are going to talk about you. I think 174 00:14:31.399 --> 00:14:41.320 we go overboard with athletes because we got the twenty four hour cycle. I'll 175 00:14:41.320 --> 00:14:50.159 give you a case in point Tiger Woods ten straight times now where he has 176 00:14:50.200 --> 00:14:54.879 shot over par, right, I think that's what I saw last night. 177 00:14:54.960 --> 00:14:58.879 But either way, everybody's talking about Tiger Woods. He was one over. 178 00:15:00.879 --> 00:15:05.919 How far back he is? The leader's at nine under. He's not winning 179 00:15:05.919 --> 00:15:09.799 this tournament, but that's what everybody starts their highlights out with, all right, 180 00:15:09.519 --> 00:15:16.759 because people want to know about Tiger Woods. Okay, that's what's going 181 00:15:16.799 --> 00:15:24.840 on with Haavier Bias. When you are as highly paid as Biases, when 182 00:15:24.919 --> 00:15:28.759 you play the most, you could argue the most important position is probably catcher, 183 00:15:30.240 --> 00:15:35.960 but the most important position that he does that the team is financially committed 184 00:15:35.960 --> 00:15:45.759 to him for another three years. After this, of course, people are 185 00:15:45.799 --> 00:15:48.080 going to write about it and talk about it. And when he's struggling, 186 00:15:50.080 --> 00:15:58.720 I know that it doesn't mean that you should avoid it, though. I 187 00:15:58.759 --> 00:16:02.679 think it's ridiculous. I don't know if anybody. I don't think anyone's written 188 00:16:02.679 --> 00:16:04.639 this. I don't know if anyone's talked about it. I don't know if 189 00:16:04.679 --> 00:16:10.440 fans have contemplated it. If they have, it's ridiculous. There's no way 190 00:16:11.399 --> 00:16:15.919 a team says, in order for me to get rid of my worst asset, 191 00:16:17.279 --> 00:16:25.559 I'm going to give up my best future asset business wise makes no sense. 192 00:16:27.600 --> 00:16:37.159 The problem with Bias and his contract and his lack of hitting is that 193 00:16:37.480 --> 00:16:44.759 no one would touch him. I know there's plenty of fans who would want 194 00:16:44.759 --> 00:16:47.679 to do this. In a fantasy where okay, we're getting close to the 195 00:16:47.679 --> 00:16:52.919 deadline, Tigers are not in this thing. What do we do. Let's 196 00:16:52.960 --> 00:16:56.679 trade a commodity that we have that somebody wants. Immediately your thought goes to 197 00:16:56.759 --> 00:17:02.720 pitching, right, of course, immediately your thought goes to a young pitcher. 198 00:17:03.840 --> 00:17:07.039 I gotta trade Jack Flaherty, right, Maybe you will, I don't 199 00:17:07.039 --> 00:17:11.640 know. Maybe they did, sort of like what Michael Lorenzen did. You 200 00:17:11.680 --> 00:17:15.759 wish you could tread Ken Tmya. No one's gonna want him, So you 201 00:17:15.839 --> 00:17:18.480 go to a Casey Mice. You go to a Matt Manning, you go 202 00:17:18.559 --> 00:17:22.880 to a Terrek schoobl You go to that's where your mind takes you, and 203 00:17:22.920 --> 00:17:29.599 then you think, I got an idea to make things at least sweet for 204 00:17:29.799 --> 00:17:34.480 me, but sour for you. You got to take Miz Manning or Schooble 205 00:17:36.279 --> 00:17:42.480 with bias. Teams aren't going to do that. That's an immediate turnoff. 206 00:17:45.599 --> 00:17:48.519 That's like taking a girl out on the first date and she's picking her nose. 207 00:17:49.799 --> 00:17:52.480 First time you go see her. You walk up to the steps and 208 00:17:52.519 --> 00:17:56.960 she's smoking. I don't mean smoking hot, I mean smoking a cigarette. 209 00:17:57.519 --> 00:18:03.680 Turn off, turn off out. General managers are going to hang the phone 210 00:18:03.759 --> 00:18:11.119 up, they're going to drive the car off the road. They're going to 211 00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:17.440 disconnect their bluetooth. That's not happening, So you can get that out of 212 00:18:17.480 --> 00:18:25.519 your mother. I suppose you could find one irresponsible I won't use the word 213 00:18:25.559 --> 00:18:30.039 stupid, irresponsible GM to do that. I doubt it, highly doubt it. 214 00:18:32.279 --> 00:18:37.200 Maybe they've got so much money. Wouldn't be the Mets, but it 215 00:18:37.240 --> 00:18:41.880 wouldn't be the Yankees. They got they're okay with e Vulpian Torres. Maybe 216 00:18:41.920 --> 00:18:45.200 there's a team out there that says, you know what, we need that 217 00:18:45.240 --> 00:18:48.400 picture so desperately we will take the other guy and eat his contract. It's 218 00:18:48.440 --> 00:18:53.200 just I don't see how that happens. I don't see how they they possibly 219 00:18:53.240 --> 00:19:00.240 eat seventy three million dollars. Those general managers folks have to go to a 220 00:19:00.440 --> 00:19:07.160 higher caller, their owner. They have to go to their owner and say, 221 00:19:07.319 --> 00:19:12.079 here's what we've done. We've acquired Casey Mice, Matt Mannure, Terry 222 00:19:12.160 --> 00:19:23.519 Coole, and we've done that, but we've also had to collect a less 223 00:19:23.519 --> 00:19:30.720 than desirable contract. Oh yeah, what's that. We've got Javier Bias and 224 00:19:30.759 --> 00:19:36.799 we're going to owe him seventy three million dollars after this year. That seems 225 00:19:36.839 --> 00:19:40.640 like pretty steep. I don't know the young fellow, but my guess is 226 00:19:41.480 --> 00:19:45.519 he better be worth it, right, because that's pretty well quite honestly, 227 00:19:45.599 --> 00:19:51.359 No, he's eighty two percent worse than the average hitter. I'm sorry, 228 00:19:52.160 --> 00:19:57.960 what yeah, it's it's not a great situation, but I had to make 229 00:19:57.960 --> 00:20:06.559 the deal. I hate to tell you this, but he's on base plus 230 00:20:06.599 --> 00:20:11.599 slnking percentage has dropped in each of the last three years with Detroit. I 231 00:20:11.640 --> 00:20:15.240 can't do anything about it. I had to have the pitching. I know 232 00:20:15.319 --> 00:20:21.160 he's hitting in just one sixty seven and one homer and he's only walked five 233 00:20:21.240 --> 00:20:23.599 times. But I really think the pitcheon's going to help. You're fired. 234 00:20:26.720 --> 00:20:30.680 That's my money and you're wasting it. But he's a two time All Star 235 00:20:32.119 --> 00:20:40.000 in his prime, not now, so that's not happening. You have to 236 00:20:40.039 --> 00:20:47.400 write it out. I know it's tough. You have to hope or rely. 237 00:20:47.799 --> 00:20:49.920 Hope is gone. You have to rely on your coaches to make him 238 00:20:49.920 --> 00:20:57.079 better. And you better try and pray as hard as you can that he 239 00:20:57.119 --> 00:21:03.599 figures something out. Whatever it is you're doing with them ain't working right now. 240 00:21:04.759 --> 00:21:07.960 Meyer Hotline is open for you eight sixty six eight three eight forty eight 241 00:21:08.000 --> 00:21:11.839 forty three.

Hey, thanks for sticking around with us eight thirty five on this 262 00:23:15.960 --> 00:23:21.480 Friday morning. I hope you've got big plans coming this weekend and you're excited 263 00:23:21.680 --> 00:23:26.200 for them. Enjoy it if you missed it. Last night, Rangers come 264 00:23:26.240 --> 00:23:29.759 for three to one down. They beat Carolina five to three. They eliminate 265 00:23:29.799 --> 00:23:34.400 the Hurricanes in six games. Chris Kreider had the hat trick. It was 266 00:23:34.440 --> 00:23:38.000 a natural hat trick. It all came in the third period. And the 267 00:23:38.119 --> 00:23:42.200 Rangers are into the finals there where they play Eastern Conference Finals where they play 268 00:23:42.240 --> 00:23:48.240 either Florida or Boston. I'm not sure who the better matchup is. I 269 00:23:48.279 --> 00:23:51.799 can't necessarily break that down. I just know Florida's tough to play against. 270 00:23:51.880 --> 00:23:56.319 Man. They really are. I said this middle of the season. I 271 00:23:56.319 --> 00:24:00.839 thought the Rangers were really good. You sure didn't need me to tell you 272 00:24:00.920 --> 00:24:11.000 that. But they are sustainable because of their depth and Shaskirkin is really good 273 00:24:11.000 --> 00:24:18.400 in net on the west side. Dallas leads Colorado three games to two, 274 00:24:18.880 --> 00:24:22.920 and now Edmonton trails Vancouver three games to two because the Canucks won last night 275 00:24:22.960 --> 00:24:30.279 three two. The biggest surprise, well, the fact that Carolina surroundered a 276 00:24:30.279 --> 00:24:37.480 three to one third period lead is surprising. But to watch Denver get steamroled 277 00:24:37.720 --> 00:24:41.799 by Minnesota. I don't know if you saw this, or maybe you just 278 00:24:41.839 --> 00:24:48.279 tuned it out after a while because you saw how it was going one fifteen 279 00:24:48.519 --> 00:24:53.559 to seventy. Anthony Edwards said, twenty seven. Rudy Gobert must have had 280 00:24:53.599 --> 00:25:00.359 I think he had five more rebounds than Nikola Jokic. Maybe, just maybe 281 00:25:00.359 --> 00:25:04.039 he took it a little personal. Not sure. He was showing seven fingers 282 00:25:04.079 --> 00:25:07.680 to the crowd, saying, you know it's going to take seven games. 283 00:25:07.880 --> 00:25:12.400 Here we go, and now they're going to do just that. Sunday in 284 00:25:12.559 --> 00:25:21.400 Denver, the one fifteen to seventy decisive knockout, the forty five point win 285 00:25:22.119 --> 00:25:26.000 the Wolf's largest winning margin in a postseason game since twenty fifteen when they beat 286 00:25:26.079 --> 00:25:33.039 Milwaukee, or I should say when Chicago beat Milwaukee by fifty four points clinching 287 00:25:33.359 --> 00:25:44.160 a first round playoff series win. So the largest postseason victory for any team 288 00:25:45.000 --> 00:25:52.880 since twenty fifteen. That's impressive. Here's the other thing I noticed last night 289 00:25:53.480 --> 00:26:00.599 after the Rangers won. Chris Kreider took a hockey puck, had to have 290 00:26:00.640 --> 00:26:07.160 some velcro on it. They had a little like Stanley Cup and then series 291 00:26:07.720 --> 00:26:14.799 brackets on it, sort of like what they do in the NCAA tournament where 292 00:26:14.839 --> 00:26:18.559 they move forward. You know, you'll see them take their team name, 293 00:26:19.319 --> 00:26:27.200 slap it on a bracket, have some magnetic force, and celebrate in their 294 00:26:27.240 --> 00:26:36.839 locker room with everybody. Really is a cool moment. I didn't know NHL 295 00:26:36.880 --> 00:26:42.359 teams were doing that. I didn't know that was a thing. But it's 296 00:26:42.400 --> 00:26:45.799 cool that they get involved in stuff like that. Hey, I wanted to 297 00:26:45.799 --> 00:26:49.759 bring this up two days ago when it came out, but we never got 298 00:26:49.759 --> 00:26:55.000 to it. I think we were too. First of all, we were 299 00:26:55.000 --> 00:27:00.279 talking more about the Jared Goff signing extension, and we were talking about, 300 00:27:00.519 --> 00:27:04.279 you know, the Tigers back to back shut out losses to Miami and they 301 00:27:04.319 --> 00:27:11.319 haven't scored in nineteen straight innings. CBS Sports came out with a poll that's 302 00:27:11.319 --> 00:27:18.240 not even a poll, it's a ranking. They're writers decided what has who 303 00:27:18.319 --> 00:27:23.400 the best coaches are? How's that? And first of all, there's a 304 00:27:23.400 --> 00:27:27.960 lot more to coaching just than just what you see on the field to play, 305 00:27:29.000 --> 00:27:37.359 as we all know, but they took the power for conferences and ranked 306 00:27:37.400 --> 00:27:47.799 the coaches sixty eight teams, sixty eight coaches. Where this is hard to 307 00:27:47.839 --> 00:27:57.720 do, but where would you put Jonathan Smith Michigan State and Charon Moore Michigan 308 00:28:00.960 --> 00:28:07.880 Where would you rank them? CBS Sports has Cheron Moore ranked sixty second or 309 00:28:07.960 --> 00:28:12.319 fifty second. Rather, here's what they write. Don't typically see first year 310 00:28:12.400 --> 00:28:18.079 coaches start this high in the rankings, But More isn't your typical first year 311 00:28:18.160 --> 00:28:23.640 coach. He served four games as head coach last season thanks to Harbaugh's transgressions, 312 00:28:23.680 --> 00:28:26.799 but won them all, including victories against Penn State and Ohio State. 313 00:28:27.119 --> 00:28:33.799 Plenty of coaches are ranked ahead of him without wins. That impressive, but 314 00:28:33.000 --> 00:28:38.519 it'll be interesting to see how More performs as captain of a ship coming off 315 00:28:38.519 --> 00:28:48.920 a national title. They have him behind a number of coaches that you look 316 00:28:48.960 --> 00:28:57.680 at and think, no way, how in the hell is he behind this 317 00:28:57.799 --> 00:29:03.160 guy? Now, if you're looking for other Big Ten coaches, just to 318 00:29:03.200 --> 00:29:08.240 put it in perspective for you, and I mean traditional Big Ten, not 319 00:29:08.359 --> 00:29:15.039 the teams that are coming over Purdue. Ryan Walters's ranked sixty fifth out of 320 00:29:15.119 --> 00:29:18.440 sixty eight. Sixty eight, by the way, is Deshaun Foster, first 321 00:29:18.480 --> 00:29:26.799 year head coach UCLA sixty fifth for Ryan Walters. This is all very subjective 322 00:29:26.839 --> 00:29:30.960 as far as I'm concerned, But play along if you don't mind. Northwestern's 323 00:29:30.039 --> 00:29:40.200 David Braun just behind Sharon Moore. Braun was the interim coach at Northwestern just 324 00:29:40.240 --> 00:29:44.400 before the season started because of the problems with Pat Fitzgerald, and he led 325 00:29:44.720 --> 00:29:49.599 the Wildcats do an eight and five record that was that exceeded everybody's expectations. 326 00:29:49.640 --> 00:29:56.880 If that's the case, why would he not. I mean, he's got 327 00:29:56.920 --> 00:30:06.640 thirteen games under his belt and a win. This is why it's so damn 328 00:30:06.680 --> 00:30:15.000 subjective. Sometimes it's tough to make sense of it. Kurt Signetti is the 329 00:30:15.000 --> 00:30:23.000 Indiana coach. It's going to be his first year as the head coach of 330 00:30:23.000 --> 00:30:30.200 the Hoosiers. He's got experience, He's been at different places, including most 331 00:30:30.200 --> 00:30:36.759 recently James Madison, but first time that he's in a Power four conference, 332 00:30:37.319 --> 00:30:40.519 and yet he's ahead of Sharon Moore. I'm not saying Charon Moore should be 333 00:30:40.519 --> 00:30:42.559 ahead of him. I'm just giving you an idea, all right. Mike 334 00:30:42.640 --> 00:30:48.400 Loxley Maryland. He's at forty one. He's coming off an eight and five 335 00:30:48.440 --> 00:30:57.200 campaign. But Maryland's won three straight bowl games, they've under Locksley, they 336 00:30:57.200 --> 00:31:00.559 haven't finished with a Big Ten. Above five hundred record in the Big Ten. 337 00:31:03.400 --> 00:31:06.839 Doesn't help when you're playing in the same division as Michigan and Ohio State 338 00:31:06.839 --> 00:31:12.480 and Penn State and Michigan State. But those are the facts. Just ahead 339 00:31:12.480 --> 00:31:18.839 of him at thirty nine or at forty rather is Rutgers. That's Greg Chiano. 340 00:31:19.039 --> 00:31:25.720 Greg Cianna has got a pretty good track record. That's a really hard 341 00:31:25.799 --> 00:31:33.519 job there at Rutgers. Their facility stink, That football stadium blows. PJ. 342 00:31:33.759 --> 00:31:44.519 Fleck, Minnesota thirty nine. I don't. I don't get that. 343 00:31:45.599 --> 00:31:51.400 I just don't six and seventy year ago, first losing Big Ten record in 344 00:31:51.440 --> 00:31:56.279 a full season since he took over, or a second since the second year 345 00:31:56.319 --> 00:32:06.440 twenty eighteen. He's at thirty nine. No way would not want him on 346 00:32:06.559 --> 00:32:13.680 my sideline. Brett Beilama, Illinois thirty six. That guy's got a proven 347 00:32:13.720 --> 00:32:16.279 track wreck. Now he also had a bad, proven track record at Arkansas. 348 00:32:17.240 --> 00:32:22.519 But we're talking about right now, all right again. I'm going to 349 00:32:22.559 --> 00:32:28.519 the traditional ones. I'm not going to Oregon and USC and the like Nebraska. 350 00:32:28.559 --> 00:32:36.720 Matt Rule. He went to and ten in his first year. Remember 351 00:32:36.799 --> 00:32:38.960 his first year Baylor, he was terrible and then he turned it around. 352 00:32:39.519 --> 00:32:47.119 So he's at twenty nine. Jonathan Smith is at twenty seven. Here's what 353 00:32:47.160 --> 00:32:52.440 they write about Jonathan Smith. I would argue that our annual coach rankings were 354 00:32:52.440 --> 00:32:55.839 ahead of the curve on Smith. He's done well here on an annual basis. 355 00:32:55.880 --> 00:33:00.680 Now that Smith is landing in the Big ten, his profile will rise 356 00:33:00.799 --> 00:33:06.119 further considering the total roster overhaul that's taking place and he's lansing this offseason. 357 00:33:06.279 --> 00:33:09.359 I don't know how expectations should be set this season, but Smith's track record 358 00:33:09.440 --> 00:33:16.920 suggests Sparty will be happy with this decision in the long run. I guess 359 00:33:16.960 --> 00:33:25.319 what I sometimes what I wonder when they do these rankings is do you take 360 00:33:25.359 --> 00:33:30.079 into account just how good of a guy, what a good job he's done 361 00:33:30.079 --> 00:33:36.519 in a difficult circumstance. He was really good at Oregon State personally, is 362 00:33:36.599 --> 00:33:42.119 just my opinion. I think he should be in the top twenty five. 363 00:33:44.759 --> 00:33:46.880 I'm not saying he's better than Sunny Dike's I'm not saying he's better than Eli 364 00:33:46.920 --> 00:33:54.200 Drinkwitz. But I look, Jeff Bram struggled at Purdue mightily, and then 365 00:33:54.240 --> 00:33:57.720 he goes to Louisville and he had a really good season. I'm not saying 366 00:33:57.759 --> 00:34:01.039 he shouldn't be number nineteen, but John Smith deserves the same type of credit 367 00:34:06.440 --> 00:34:12.840 other Big Ten coaches. Kirk Farren's eighteen at Iowa, this is a lifetime 368 00:34:12.880 --> 00:34:17.239 achievement. Ranking plays in the weaker division. We'll see how it had. 369 00:34:17.519 --> 00:34:21.280 We'll see how he does when there is no divisions, but he plays in 370 00:34:21.320 --> 00:34:24.039 the weaker division, has not been able to win the Big Ten title game. 371 00:34:25.400 --> 00:34:29.199 He does it with Look, I mean, let's be honest. Okay, 372 00:34:29.679 --> 00:34:32.960 it's not enjoyable to watch because their offense isn't very good. Let's see 373 00:34:32.960 --> 00:34:37.800 if Tim Lester changes that. But their offense just is not creative. It's 374 00:34:37.840 --> 00:34:42.719 not good. It's not fun to watch. It's bad. The defense scores 375 00:34:42.760 --> 00:34:46.079 as much as the offense. For crying out loud, But that is strictly 376 00:34:46.800 --> 00:34:52.519 a lifetime achievement. Is he the eighteenth best coach in America? His all 377 00:34:52.599 --> 00:34:57.880 time record would tell you he deserves that respect, or maybe even more. 378 00:34:59.440 --> 00:35:02.639 But we're talking about to here and now, and what does he do so 379 00:35:02.840 --> 00:35:13.239 well? It's not easy to recruit to Io City, and yet he has 380 00:35:13.280 --> 00:35:20.039 found a way to do it. I can't say. I remember I use 381 00:35:20.119 --> 00:35:23.599 the example for teams. How many of your guys do I want? How 382 00:35:23.599 --> 00:35:27.840 many of my guys do you want? You could do the same thing with 383 00:35:27.920 --> 00:35:32.960 coaches to a certain extent. If you're an athletic director and your coach abruptly 384 00:35:34.079 --> 00:35:37.360 leaves, are you making that phone call? Forget the age for a minute, 385 00:35:37.400 --> 00:35:39.880 Okay, are you making the phone call? The answer to that is 386 00:35:39.920 --> 00:35:45.119 probably no. But he's at eighteen seventeen? Is Luke Fickel. I think 387 00:35:45.159 --> 00:35:52.159 he's a really good coach. I have no problem with that. A guy 388 00:35:52.239 --> 00:35:57.000 you here in our six o'clock open when we begin Exes and Bros. Every 389 00:35:57.239 --> 00:36:00.599 Monday through Friday six to nine. Mike Gundhy is at fifteen, even though 390 00:36:00.599 --> 00:36:02.679 they're not in the Big ten. I just wanted to give you that because 391 00:36:02.719 --> 00:36:15.480 he's part of the Open. The next Big ten team Penn State James Franklin. 392 00:36:17.679 --> 00:36:23.039 That's ridiculous. Sorry, I don't think he's a top eleven coach. 393 00:36:24.039 --> 00:36:28.639 No way, can't beat Michigan, can't beat Ohio State for the most part. 394 00:36:29.199 --> 00:36:36.039 I know he has he's had success, but I'll bet you most people 395 00:36:36.039 --> 00:36:44.880 at Happy Valley wouldn't mind them moving on. You think James Franklin is better 396 00:36:45.119 --> 00:36:53.280 than Lane Kiffin, I don't. I think Josh Hipel's a really good coach 397 00:36:53.320 --> 00:37:00.920 at Tennessee. I think Matt Campbell's really good at Iowa State. Marcus Freeman's 398 00:37:00.920 --> 00:37:04.039 a good recruiter. I don't think he's a really good in game coach. 399 00:37:05.679 --> 00:37:13.079 And yet they have James Franklin above all those guys. Dan Lanning in Oregon, 400 00:37:13.159 --> 00:37:16.599 they're going to be in the Big ten next year. They've got him 401 00:37:16.639 --> 00:37:22.199 at number nine, all right. Caitlin de Boorr, who made it to 402 00:37:22.199 --> 00:37:25.920 the National championship last year, is at seven. I'll tell you the guy 403 00:37:25.920 --> 00:37:30.599 who I really really like, and they like him too. They probably don't 404 00:37:30.599 --> 00:37:37.000 like him as much as I do. Kyle Whittingham Utah. I think that 405 00:37:37.079 --> 00:37:43.960 dude is really good, and I think he's better than number six ranking. 406 00:37:45.639 --> 00:37:47.880 I'd probably take him over Dabos Sweeney. I'd probably take him over Brian Kelly. 407 00:37:50.119 --> 00:37:54.119 The last Big Ten coach you're waiting to hear about is Ryan Day. 408 00:37:54.920 --> 00:38:00.960 He's number two. If Nick Saban were still around, he wouldn't. He'd 409 00:38:00.960 --> 00:38:07.039 probably be at three according to these, but he's at number two. Ohio 410 00:38:07.039 --> 00:38:15.679 State couldn't beat Michigan for a third straight season, missed out on the College 411 00:38:15.719 --> 00:38:22.480 Football Playoff. But this dude can recruit. He kills it on the recruiting 412 00:38:22.519 --> 00:38:28.159 trail. And yes, there are times when you watch him in game you 413 00:38:28.159 --> 00:38:37.159 think what are you doing? No way why that's because we don't watch them 414 00:38:37.199 --> 00:38:40.880 every single game. I think he's a very good coach. I think he's 415 00:38:40.960 --> 00:38:45.480 number two. Probably not, but I think he's a top five coach because 416 00:38:45.519 --> 00:38:49.079 it's more than just in game stuff. I think the in game is the 417 00:38:49.079 --> 00:38:52.559 most important thing, but it's more than just in game. Number one. 418 00:38:52.639 --> 00:38:55.000 You know who it is. It's Kirby Smart. And that makes sense. 419 00:38:57.719 --> 00:39:00.320 Again, if Nick Saban were around, Kirby Smart would not be number one. 420 00:39:00.679 --> 00:39:04.840 It'd be Nick Saban, and rightfully so, not just because of all 421 00:39:04.880 --> 00:39:07.360 the championships he's won, but because of how he recruits, who he sends 422 00:39:07.400 --> 00:39:13.400 to the NFL, what he does for college football, all that. I 423 00:39:13.440 --> 00:39:15.400 meant to get to that a couple of days ago. We didn't have time 424 00:39:15.440 --> 00:39:19.800 to do it, and we finally were able to get it. Unfortunately, 425 00:39:19.800 --> 00:39:22.760 we don't have a lot of time for your thoughts on something like that, 426 00:39:22.800 --> 00:39:27.280 but we're always welcome a text that we can get to and bring up at 427 00:39:27.280 --> 00:39:30.239 a different time. We don't have to talk about whatever Ben and I have 428 00:39:30.360 --> 00:39:35.679 decided where the program goes. We're not like that on Xies and Bros. 429 00:39:36.880 --> 00:39:39.880 Anything that's on your mind, anything you think is important, anything that you 430 00:39:40.039 --> 00:39:46.199 want to discuss. That's what we're here for and the Meyer Hotline. Plug 431 00:39:46.239 --> 00:39:50.719 it into your phone, keep it there on speed dial eight sixty six eight 432 00:39:50.760 --> 00:39:54.880 three, eight forty eight forty three. By the way, they have decided, 433 00:39:54.920 --> 00:40:06.519 speaking of college football, they have decided, courtesy of the Michigan Regents, 434 00:40:07.159 --> 00:40:13.480 that they are going to sell booze at the Big House. It was 435 00:40:13.519 --> 00:40:20.960 approved by the Board of Regents on Thursday. You're going to see the ability 436 00:40:21.760 --> 00:40:25.039 to drink spirits. It's going to have a Class C liquor license. So 437 00:40:25.159 --> 00:40:30.320 will Chrysler Center. By the way, so you're going to get beer, 438 00:40:31.599 --> 00:40:42.559 wine, mixed drinks as well. Another way to bring in more money. 439 00:40:43.519 --> 00:40:51.480 I wonder how much that changes the tailgaters. Probably not that much, but 440 00:40:51.559 --> 00:40:53.920 you'll have a chance to imbibe. Once you're inside the gates of the Big 441 00:40:53.960 --> 00:41:00.880 House, things are evolving.
