13
00:00:53.359 --> 00:00:58.039
Well, then let's start a rumor. No, let's start a rumor somebody

14
00:00:58.119 --> 00:01:00.200
yesterday with the with the TMAC.
Let's start win. Anyway, this is

15
00:01:00.200 --> 00:01:04.439
the most excited we've seen jail start. I want to start one. Okay,

16
00:01:04.519 --> 00:01:10.920
start what No it's not a journalism, wouldn't be journalism at all.

17
00:01:11.120 --> 00:01:15.439
Yeah, he's saying that doesn't even
in his objective. They'll keep it to

18
00:01:15.480 --> 00:01:19.959
myself. But speaking of more PAC
twelve stuff, Cal offensive coordinator is moving

19
00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:23.560
over to Baylor. Uh. So
Baylor has just hired him. I believe

20
00:01:23.560 --> 00:01:27.879
his as an offensive coordinator. Yes, as an offensive coordinator. Oh,

21
00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:32.799
sorry, the coach he was a
little bit on the hot seat because they

22
00:01:32.799 --> 00:01:34.920
were so bad this year. Yeah, so David Randa. They retained him

23
00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:38.640
after a three and nine season,
but the offensive coordinator, Jeff Grimes was

24
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:42.799
dismissed, so they pretty much that
to their blaming for that season. Uh.

25
00:01:42.840 --> 00:01:48.920
And Baylor's bringing on Jake's pivotal spot
vital. Sorry as the duoc over

26
00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:51.519
there, Tommy Lloyd kind of talked
about it a little bit. But we

27
00:01:51.560 --> 00:01:55.319
do have some NBA mock draft news
for those who care about that stuff.

28
00:01:55.359 --> 00:01:57.400
You know, our coach does Tommy, Tommy Lloyd does it. Yeah,

29
00:01:57.480 --> 00:02:00.159
does not live in the world,
live in the world of mock exactly.

30
00:02:00.200 --> 00:02:05.640
That was funny. But yeah,
USC guard Isaiah Collier is predicted to number

31
00:02:05.719 --> 00:02:07.520
number one overall, to the same
number one overall, Number one overall first

32
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:13.479
round of the Spurs. Wow.
Yeah, he's about almost nineteen years old.

33
00:02:13.560 --> 00:02:15.280
But it looks like us he has. Have you seen him? I

34
00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:19.479
haven't seen him play. I have
not watched a lot of us. Actually

35
00:02:19.479 --> 00:02:21.520
they played last night at like nine
pm, I think, but I didn't.

36
00:02:21.520 --> 00:02:23.960
I didn't get to catch that one. And for those who were wondering

37
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:28.759
where Colin Boswell fell into the mox, he was also going to the Spurs

38
00:02:29.039 --> 00:02:32.000
first round or first pick of the
second round. Uh, to the Spurs,

39
00:02:32.039 --> 00:02:36.240
Like I said, number thirty one
overall. All right, that's that's

40
00:02:36.280 --> 00:02:38.439
living in mock though. Yeah,
that's living in the mock. We don't.

41
00:02:38.439 --> 00:02:39.039
We don't do that over here.
You know what we're gonna you know

42
00:02:39.080 --> 00:02:42.280
what, we should cut that clip
and use it like we you use the

00:02:42.280 --> 00:02:45.120
Azulas one. I don't live in

00:02:53.479 --> 00:02:54.680

47
00:02:57.000 --> 00:03:00.840
Arizona Cardinals have waved tight end zach
Ertz. It's reported they he asked to

48
00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:02.960
be cut He's been dealing with some
injuries the past couple of years, kind

49
00:03:02.960 --> 00:03:06.879
of on and off the field.
Cardinals are not that great on the field

50
00:03:06.879 --> 00:03:09.599
anyway, so he might be he
might be looking for a better situation for

51
00:03:09.680 --> 00:03:13.719

53
00:03:19.400 --> 00:03:23.000

my teams. We have more USC news.

54
00:03:23.560 --> 00:03:25.560

been cleared to come back to Yeah, and they have a tough schedule coming

56
00:03:30.319 --> 00:03:35.120

57
00:03:35.479 --> 00:03:38.080
is he hyped over hyped, under
hyped, overrated, under I don't

58
00:03:38.080 --> 00:03:40.120
know. But the fact that he
went through that thing, you know,

59
00:03:40.240 --> 00:03:46.520
and and yeah, he had Chartiac. Just be happy to be alive,

60
00:03:46.599 --> 00:03:50.319
right, He's gonna play college basketball. Yeah, probably a whole new lease

61
00:03:50.360 --> 00:03:53.400
on life for him. Uh.
Speaking of the James family, Maverick Carter,

62
00:03:53.520 --> 00:03:58.520
this is breaking news today. Maverick
Carter, Lebron James manager. He

63
00:03:58.599 --> 00:04:05.639
was involved in a information set sequestry
of sorts by the Courts where they were

64
00:04:05.639 --> 00:04:11.280
looking into a former minor league baseball
player who was organizing an illegal betting pool,

65
00:04:12.080 --> 00:04:15.319
Maverick Carter. In that investigation,
he was cooperating with the authorities and

66
00:04:15.360 --> 00:04:18.240
admitted that he had placed bets with
the illegal book maker on the NBA.

67
00:04:18.639 --> 00:04:23.759
He said he could not remember if
he placed any bets on the Lakers or

68
00:04:23.839 --> 00:04:28.079
teams that, yeah, were teams
that his clients were working for. They

69
00:04:28.079 --> 00:04:30.680
were saying that he was making bets, with each bet ranging from five thousand

70
00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:35.680
to ten thousand dollars. In the
NBA prohibits players and team officials and league

71
00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:41.199
officials obviously from betting on the games. Yeah, so that's kind of a

72
00:04:41.240 --> 00:04:44.759
news story today. We'll see where
that kind of shakes out. And he

73
00:04:44.839 --> 00:04:47.360
just released a book too, So
a lot a lot of Maverick Carter in

wait so wait, they said they've
issued the warrant. He hasn't. Actually,

80
00:05:19.959 --> 00:05:23.720
yeah, there's been no rest.
Yeah, they've issued a warrant.

81
00:05:24.079 --> 00:05:28.040
Okay, Yeah, I guess he
had the issue with this in twenty twenty

82
00:05:28.040 --> 00:05:30.279
one as well. This is oh
he's done it before. Yeah, he

83
00:05:30.319 --> 00:05:33.759
can go talk to Hulu Uias and
talk about how that went for his career.

84
00:05:33.959 --> 00:05:36.160
Yeah. They're saying that he was
not at the scene when the police

85
00:05:36.240 --> 00:05:40.720
arrived. They're saying he left after
she was She stated that she was going

86
00:05:40.759 --> 00:05:43.639
to call the police, and so
they're they had worn out for his arrest

87
00:05:45.120 --> 00:05:47.240
and some son of your news.
Though. Inter Miami has sold out their

88
00:05:47.360 --> 00:05:50.680
twenty twenty four season tickets already.
It's it's the year of you know,

89
00:05:50.800 --> 00:05:54.839
MESSI. Last year was kind of
disappointing. This year, it only took

90
00:05:54.879 --> 00:06:00.839
two weeks to saw out the entire
season ticket h Yeah, yeah, and

91
00:06:00.920 --> 00:06:03.759
it was it was interesting to me
to see the different the different prices that

92
00:06:03.759 --> 00:06:09.240
that they're the the MLS teams are
charging for tickets, like the Columbus Crew

93
00:06:09.759 --> 00:06:13.759
when they're playing into Miami. Tickets
are ranging from you know, lowest three

94
00:06:13.839 --> 00:06:16.160
hundred, four hundred dollars. Now
they're playing anybody else, they're forty dollars

95
00:06:16.199 --> 00:06:19.879
ticket. I thought that was I
mean, it's it's it's obviously not shocking,

96
00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:25.800
but it's I don't know, it
stood out to me. And then

97
00:06:26.040 --> 00:06:30.120
in other breaking news, Christiano Ronaldo
has been involved there is now involved in

98
00:06:30.120 --> 00:06:35.680
a one billion dollar class action lawsuit
involving his NFT corporation that he founded,

99
00:06:35.720 --> 00:06:41.959
where uh, the lawsuit is alleging
that it was kind of somewhat fraudulent and

100
00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:46.000
that he did not disclose how much
that the company was actually paying him to

101
00:06:46.079 --> 00:06:48.560
do these things and promote this product. And so yeah, he's wrapped up

102
00:06:48.600 --> 00:06:53.560
in quite the large class action,
wasn't there Who was it that was having

103
00:06:53.759 --> 00:06:56.360
was it Messy too, that was
having some tax issues that was going to

104
00:06:56.399 --> 00:06:59.759
get arrested or was it one of
the neymar or one of the other guys.

105
00:06:59.800 --> 00:07:00.720
I don't know off the top of
my head, but do you think

106
00:07:00.759 --> 00:07:05.600
so Ronaldo Ronaldo or or was it
Ronaldo one of those that was that was

107
00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:11.560
actually gonna get arrested for for taxes
back in their home country. Whatever it

108
00:07:11.639 --> 00:07:14.040
was. Yeah, And then as
far as baking new that's all I had

109
00:07:13.720 --> 00:07:15.879
for I saw. I saw what
I wanted to bring up, Dione Sanders

110
00:07:15.879 --> 00:07:20.800
being named the Sports Illustrated That's right. What first thing this morning that you

111
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:24.079
know? I pop open Twitter and
there it is, and I'm like,

112
00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:27.120
wait a minute. I mean,
honestly, if he was, you know,

113
00:07:27.279 --> 00:07:30.839
I want to I don't want to
compare him to Jetfish, but if

114
00:07:30.959 --> 00:07:34.319
Jetfish, if he was at Arizona
with this miracle worker here, he would

115
00:07:34.360 --> 00:07:38.600
be Sportsman of the Year. He
what did he do? He won three

116
00:07:38.639 --> 00:07:41.600
games? To be well, he
let he led college football on fire for

117
00:07:41.639 --> 00:07:45.959
a month and that was its twelve
months. Yeah, there's eleven other months.

118
00:07:46.120 --> 00:07:47.240
You you're one hundred percent correct,
Steve. I saw that. I

119
00:07:47.279 --> 00:07:49.160
mean, I'm sitting you're trying to
think. Okay, then who would it

120
00:07:49.199 --> 00:07:53.720
be? I can't think of anybody
who it would be, but not him?

121
00:07:54.680 --> 00:07:59.279
Yes, what what has he done? He took a one eleven team

122
00:07:59.319 --> 00:08:03.120
and got him to four and eight? Yeah, yeah, right, Okay,

123
00:08:03.120 --> 00:08:05.399
I get it. He sold out
Colorado football. But it's not like

124
00:08:05.439 --> 00:08:11.360
he sold out Nebraska football or Florida
football, Tennessee or something. And this

125
00:08:11.439 --> 00:08:15.480
may be a dumb comparison, but
if he was not d On and this

126
00:08:15.560 --> 00:08:18.160
happened to Jetfish or some other coach, you wouldn't think anything of it.

127
00:08:18.199 --> 00:08:20.839
He'd be on the hot seat next
year. Look, I don't get it.

128
00:08:20.879 --> 00:08:24.920
I don't know. I haven't read
that. I haven't read the story.

129
00:08:24.160 --> 00:08:28.800
Pat pat Fordy wrote the story.
And you know, we all know

130
00:08:28.920 --> 00:08:33.919
Pat and he's good writer and so
and he writes for Sports Illustrated. So

131
00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:37.120
I got to read the story and
maybe, you know, next week,

132
00:08:37.159 --> 00:08:39.480
if we're talking about it again,
you know, come back to it.

133
00:08:39.519 --> 00:08:41.200
But I have to find I have
to read the story to find out,

134
00:08:41.240 --> 00:08:46.200
Okay, what makes him the Sportsman
of the Year, because I don't from

135
00:08:46.200 --> 00:08:48.480
where I sit right now, obviously
were you sit, you're going, what

136
00:08:48.519 --> 00:08:52.399
the hell I saw that? I
said, what deserves this? I mean

137
00:08:52.399 --> 00:08:56.480
he he at some point underachieved after
going three and all right, at some

138
00:08:56.519 --> 00:09:00.720
point, and he was exciting.
It was very excited. Didn't know what's

139
00:09:00.759 --> 00:09:03.159
going on, no doubt, he
said. But then the fire, Yeah,

140
00:09:05.080 --> 00:09:07.559
he threw a bucket of water on
then it rained, Yeah, and

141
00:09:07.559 --> 00:09:09.639
it rained. Hell, if anything, you'll catch may have been the guy

142
00:09:11.120 --> 00:09:15.440
who won a title with Denver after
never having won one before, and he's

143
00:09:15.440 --> 00:09:18.799
probably clearly the best NBA player out
there right now. See what he was

144
00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:22.000
doing yesterday. He's ridiculous, and
you would see him on the street.

145
00:09:22.039 --> 00:09:26.559
This is from Jay's perspective. He's
not an airport guy. He's not a

146
00:09:26.600 --> 00:09:28.360
bust guy. You look at that, dude, this is what does he

147
00:09:28.440 --> 00:09:33.879
do for a living? Race his
horses. I changed his light bulbs.

148
00:09:33.919 --> 00:09:37.399
He's the best NBA player out there, and he does it in a way

149
00:09:37.440 --> 00:09:39.879
that you say, how does he
do that? He's doing stuff almost nightly

150
00:09:39.919 --> 00:09:43.000
that you look at it and you're
like, I've never seen that on a

151
00:09:43.039 --> 00:09:48.600
court before in my life. And
it's not even hyperbole. It's truly crazy.

152
00:09:48.639 --> 00:09:50.600
And there's a couple of guys in
the league like that right now,

153
00:09:50.720 --> 00:09:52.960
you know, and that's that's who? That's true? Who tell me who

154
00:09:52.840 --> 00:09:56.480
chat Holmgren he's not, I'm not. I'm not saying he's on the same

155
00:09:56.519 --> 00:09:58.120
level. But there's there's a tier
of guys right now in the NBA that

156
00:09:58.240 --> 00:10:03.080
just do things lightly that you're like, I've never seen that before. I

157
00:10:03.080 --> 00:10:05.559
can't like, I can't believe that
just happened. And yeah, Yoka is

158
00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:07.639
one of those guys, and I
think he is more deserving than a guy

159
00:10:07.679 --> 00:10:11.240
like Dean, But there's probably ten
more candidates deserving probably and I haven't been

160
00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:13.600
paid, but that was just a
that struck me kind of odd. You

161
00:10:13.600 --> 00:10:16.919
know. Well, somebody said,
well, look at the impact he had

162
00:10:16.960 --> 00:10:18.399
again, he had the impact for
a month. You're right, And now

163
00:10:18.480 --> 00:10:22.639
he's being quoted because he's Dion right. If anything, if he was Jetfish,

164
00:10:22.679 --> 00:10:26.480
he wouldn't be quoted him. But
Jetfish deserves it more than he does

165
00:10:26.799 --> 00:10:30.799
in my mind, Jetfish and I
would not be saying this in August,

166
00:10:30.799 --> 00:10:33.720
but Jetfish has done a fantastic job. If you want me to go bah

167
00:10:33.759 --> 00:10:39.320
humbug, I can't because I can't
come on this guy. This team should

168
00:10:39.320 --> 00:10:43.000
have won six games. This team
won nine, yeah, and looks very

169
00:10:43.000 --> 00:10:48.399
good one nine and probably one of
the toughest conference in ages, right,

170
00:10:50.240 --> 00:10:52.360
I get it. They didn't have
to play Oregon, but they planned to

171
00:10:52.360 --> 00:10:56.559
play Washington, USC in Utah and
you Sli and you know, beat everybody

172
00:10:56.600 --> 00:11:00.600
but you but USC and that group
in Washington, I know even you know.

173
00:11:00.639 --> 00:11:05.639
I mean, let's break the let's
break the continental United States in half

174
00:11:05.879 --> 00:11:11.639
in half. Arizona is one of
the top four teams, probably five,

175
00:11:11.919 --> 00:11:15.559
maybe don't include Texas in this in
the mix, but you break it kind

176
00:11:15.559 --> 00:11:18.720
of dead in the middle in the
West. In the West, Yeah,

177
00:11:18.960 --> 00:11:26.200
wouldn't it be in the top five? Well, they're they're three behind Oregon,

178
00:11:26.360 --> 00:11:30.039
Washington, right, Yeah, Well
who's better than them? Just trying

179
00:11:30.039 --> 00:11:35.440
to figure Not Utah, probably not
usc anymore, in usc anymore. Yeah,

180
00:11:35.519 --> 00:11:37.519
there's nobody else, Steve, you
would have never ever said this coming

181
00:11:37.559 --> 00:11:41.440
with nobody not I don't know where
you're cutting it in half, but you

182
00:11:41.480 --> 00:11:45.799
know, not in Nebraska, not
Kansas, not Kansas State, certainly not

183
00:11:45.879 --> 00:11:50.399
Iowa. No, right right in
the middle, and there are very few

184
00:11:50.399 --> 00:11:54.279
teams better than there something even by
the eye test. Yeah, especially by

185
00:11:54.279 --> 00:11:58.039
the eye test. Yeah, yeah
again you want you watch the games now

186
00:11:58.080 --> 00:12:01.600
and you see them differently because I
don't see them as that team that,

187
00:12:03.519 --> 00:12:07.399
let's see if they can win this
game. I see them as who's going

188
00:12:07.480 --> 00:12:11.639
to beat them? How is this
other team that they're playing going to beat

189
00:12:11.679 --> 00:12:13.240
them? So so I didn't watch
the Colorado game because I was coming back

190
00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:16.519
from DO because I didn't see that
game. And I would say today if

191
00:12:16.639 --> 00:12:20.480
if they laid a dud in the
next game, I would be shocked.

192
00:12:20.840 --> 00:12:26.679
Because this team doesn't do that.
It hasn't done that. Colorado and and

193
00:12:26.759 --> 00:12:31.720
Stanford were games that Arizona would lose
in, you know, in other years,

194
00:12:31.919 --> 00:12:35.000
normal, normal years where they were
pretty good and you're going to a

195
00:12:35.039 --> 00:12:37.360
game and that they you know,
you think you should beat them, and

196
00:12:37.360 --> 00:12:43.320
then you don't. And and those
those two, those two would would have

197
00:12:43.320 --> 00:12:46.039
been losable games, you know,
with another team. And these guys just

198
00:12:46.080 --> 00:12:50.320
refused to lose. They just refused
to lose. And it's amazing that.

199
00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:58.000
I mean again, if you saw
remember you probably saw uh uh Jake Fisher's

200
00:12:58.039 --> 00:13:05.600
tweet. He said, I apologize
for underestimating I left because, dude,

201
00:13:05.639 --> 00:13:07.879
We've had a lot of callers on
the show. No one got it right

202
00:13:09.000 --> 00:13:11.279
but him. Yeah, And what
did I do? I said, what's

203
00:13:11.279 --> 00:13:13.879
wrong with you? What's wrong with
you? You know, Troy may have

204
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:16.480
said seven or whatever, and I'm
thinking, what's wrong with you? Dude?

205
00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:20.440
I don't even think my brother went
nine and three this year? You

206
00:13:20.480 --> 00:13:24.000
know? Yeah? And yeah,
who I think went ten and two for

207
00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:28.360
one of someone's And I said this
before we said it maybe last week people

208
00:13:28.399 --> 00:13:33.200
said, now do you believe Steve? I don't know anybody who thought this.

209
00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:37.960
I don't. Yes, I was
wrong, but everybody I know was

210
00:13:37.000 --> 00:13:41.559
wrong. I struggled to find six
wins that really did. I mean,

211
00:13:41.600 --> 00:13:45.480
I was saying six, and I
kept saying six, but three games I

212
00:13:45.559 --> 00:13:46.720
was struggling. Three games in.
You're thinking, Ken, they win it

213
00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:52.720
at Colorado, Yeah, right right, right, then here we are.

214
00:13:52.159 --> 00:13:54.360
I remember when that game was like
a big look ahead, like, oh,

215
00:13:54.360 --> 00:13:56.960
we got Colorado coming up, it's
gonna be a fun matchup. And

216
00:13:56.559 --> 00:14:00.679
then it was like, oh god, they can lose. And then then

217
00:14:00.720 --> 00:14:01.759
you go into the game and go, we're gonna kick their asses, and

218
00:14:01.759 --> 00:14:05.519
then you almost lose, and then
you almost lose. Yeah, okay,

219
00:14:05.519 --> 00:14:07.919
cool, that's fun. All right, all right, let's take our break.

220
00:14:07.919 --> 00:14:15.559
We're to come back. We've got
Lamont Huntley, Lamon Honey coming in.

mind about these air Zonta batles,

together. Oh God, stick around for

299
00:19:48.000 --> 00:19:52.880
bad mill for you wives or gir
you know you wait a minute, Leama,

300
00:19:52.920 --> 00:19:56.319
you know better than to buy treadmill
for your wife. Okay, hey,

301
00:19:56.359 --> 00:20:00.680
bro, women want to stay healthy
so they can take it unhealthy.

302
00:20:00.440 --> 00:20:03.920
You're gonna say, hey, I'm
just gonna I'm gonna go racial on you

303
00:20:03.960 --> 00:20:07.839
here based on my mom. If
my if my dad had ever bought my

304
00:20:07.960 --> 00:20:12.160
mom a treadmill, you would have
if that would have been him telling her

305
00:20:12.680 --> 00:20:18.839
she's fat, and she would have
left the house. Now nowadays, you're

306
00:20:18.880 --> 00:20:22.200
telling them that I love you,
I want you to stay healthy so you

307
00:20:22.200 --> 00:20:26.799
could be around for me. Okay, that sounds like a tough I want

308
00:20:26.799 --> 00:20:30.000
to make an observation here. I
didn't realize you and Jay have something in

309
00:20:30.039 --> 00:20:33.960
common, in fact, a very
big thing. He doesn't go to a

310
00:20:33.079 --> 00:20:37.240
ISSU football games anymore, and neither
do you. I was surprised about that.

311
00:20:38.119 --> 00:20:41.200
Well, okay, think because we're
smart guys. I'm telling you I

312
00:20:41.319 --> 00:20:45.039
don't want to be around that crowd. I mean, it's the worst crowd.

313
00:20:45.200 --> 00:20:48.519
I mean and and like I said, my last experience, I was

314
00:20:48.519 --> 00:20:52.480
there with my kids when they was
very young. My daughter was very young,

315
00:20:52.599 --> 00:20:56.000
and I had to basically fight myself
out of that crowd. To me,

316
00:20:56.079 --> 00:21:00.200
it's not worth it. It's not
worth being around those individuals. And

317
00:21:00.720 --> 00:21:03.559
it's just just an ugly sight.
And and that's all it is. It's

318
00:21:03.920 --> 00:21:07.599
not that, you know, as
far as I hate a s U or

319
00:21:07.599 --> 00:21:11.839
anything of that nature, I just
don't like being around that type of environment.

320
00:21:11.839 --> 00:21:15.359
Stay away. Yeah, my you
know, my deal Lamont was that

321
00:21:15.599 --> 00:21:18.480
you know, the last game I
went up there, Willie two Tom was

322
00:21:18.519 --> 00:21:22.039
still the quarterback, that's what fifteen
years ago, ten years ago, whatever

323
00:21:22.079 --> 00:21:26.440
it was, and my dad,
like in his late sixties, and a

324
00:21:26.480 --> 00:21:30.160
fan wanted to fight him, and
there was there was one thing was okay,

325
00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:32.599
he wants I don't want my dad
to fight him. But then I

326
00:21:32.680 --> 00:21:34.799
also didn't want my dad to kill
him. And so so you know,

327
00:21:36.319 --> 00:21:38.160
the guy had no idea. And
and that was the last time I went

328
00:21:38.160 --> 00:21:41.480
to a game up there. Yeah. And so so in my in my

329
00:21:41.599 --> 00:21:45.319
day is you know, it's it's
better you can sit here and watch it

330
00:21:45.319 --> 00:21:48.960
on a big screen TV and you
know, see everything, see more of

331
00:21:48.000 --> 00:21:52.200
it, and you know, enjoy
yourself that way. So how did you

332
00:21:52.319 --> 00:21:55.720
enjoy it? Uh? I think
Jay was talking about they scored the first

333
00:21:55.720 --> 00:21:57.440
touchdown seven zero, and what are
you thinking? You're thinking, what,

334
00:21:57.880 --> 00:22:02.599
let's not do this? So what
are you thinking? You know, I

335
00:22:02.640 --> 00:22:06.000
was impressed at all. I really
wasn't. I wasn't pressed at all in

336
00:22:06.039 --> 00:22:10.680
regards to what happened on that particular
that particular drive, you know, because

337
00:22:10.960 --> 00:22:15.759
the reason is we didn't. We
wasn't expecting we saw meaning and I don't

338
00:22:15.759 --> 00:22:18.720
know the kid's name, number fourteen, the quarterback that was back there,

339
00:22:18.920 --> 00:22:22.519
and he wasn't a fricking quarterback.
He was an offensive lineman playing quarterback.

340
00:22:22.960 --> 00:22:26.359
You know, he was just a
big body. You know. He did

341
00:22:26.480 --> 00:22:30.319
was just you know, fan of
opening it just it just ran up and

342
00:22:30.359 --> 00:22:33.839
down the field. So I don't
think the defense was prepare for that.

343
00:22:33.960 --> 00:22:37.079
So that kind of threw us off
at that point in time. But you

344
00:22:37.240 --> 00:22:41.400
notice, you know, as soon
as the true freshman got in there and

345
00:22:41.440 --> 00:22:45.319
started playing again, we was prepared
for that because that's what we gained planned

346
00:22:45.319 --> 00:22:48.680
against. Yeah, and when something
like that happens, Lamont, I mean

347
00:22:49.519 --> 00:22:53.079
it does. I mean even against
Look, let's say A was a bad

348
00:22:53.119 --> 00:22:56.119
team. Even against a bad team, if you're not expecting them to do

349
00:22:56.200 --> 00:23:00.400
something, they're likely to have some
success. I mean that sort of a

350
00:23:00.440 --> 00:23:04.720
rule of thumb the Uele game that
they played right, and you know,

351
00:23:06.039 --> 00:23:11.599
until until they see enough snaps you
really can adjust himself to that type of

352
00:23:11.599 --> 00:23:15.160
offense. In this case, you
know, things could happen that quickly and

353
00:23:15.240 --> 00:23:18.440
fast, and in this case it
did. You know, So, like

354
00:23:18.480 --> 00:23:22.880
I said, until the kids can
adjust themselves and realize and come back with

355
00:23:22.960 --> 00:23:26.640
the coaches and let the coaches,
let them know what you saw, this

356
00:23:26.720 --> 00:23:30.440
is what's happening, this is what
we need to do now and and at

357
00:23:30.440 --> 00:23:33.000
that point in time, and then
I believe later on in the in the

358
00:23:33.039 --> 00:23:37.599
game, they went back to that
quarterback situation and we stopped them. Just

359
00:23:38.240 --> 00:23:42.319
how did you feel when they were
piling on I'm thinking, yeah, I

360
00:23:42.359 --> 00:23:47.960
figured Jennal was going to do this
because early in the week in his press

361
00:23:48.000 --> 00:23:51.359
coverage, I think he has something
in mind. And they were up by

362
00:23:51.559 --> 00:23:55.880
seven touchdowns whatever it was, and
he was still throwing the ball. I

363
00:23:55.920 --> 00:23:59.039
wanted seventy plus. Man, I'm
sitting there, Get me more, get

364
00:23:59.079 --> 00:24:02.200
me more, and keep them out
the end zone. That's what I personally

365
00:24:02.279 --> 00:24:04.400
wanted to see. And I was
disappointed that we you know, we we

366
00:24:04.519 --> 00:24:08.920
kind of you know, took our
foot off the pedal in regards to defensively

367
00:24:08.960 --> 00:24:14.880
because I think that's basically where they
you know, kind of got back into

368
00:24:14.920 --> 00:24:18.920
the game, so to speak,
because Johnny did make some adjustments and put

369
00:24:18.960 --> 00:24:22.400
some backups in there versus keeping the
you know, the starters in there.

370
00:24:22.440 --> 00:24:26.599
But truthfully, I wanted seventy plus. And I don't know watching TV like

371
00:24:26.720 --> 00:24:30.799
Jay and I did you notice when
they interviewed Jay, I'm not Jaim.

372
00:24:32.039 --> 00:24:37.200
When the interview Jett putting you in
that category and they ended interview Jet,

373
00:24:37.279 --> 00:24:41.880
they said something regards to you know, what was going on the score and

374
00:24:41.880 --> 00:24:45.400
and his response was yet Tucson would
want to see this? Yeah, oh

375
00:24:45.440 --> 00:24:51.200
he did? He said that was
that during the game. Yeah, he

376
00:24:51.240 --> 00:24:52.920
said. They said, I'm like, you know, do you want to

377
00:24:52.000 --> 00:24:55.799
you want to see seventy to seventy? Says? I know, does or

378
00:24:55.880 --> 00:25:00.720
something like that, And he was
right, you know, I'm sure that

379
00:25:00.720 --> 00:25:03.839
that's what their game plan was,
you know, to put those numbers up,

380
00:25:03.839 --> 00:25:04.880
and you know, and I don't
fall them one bit. I would

381
00:25:04.960 --> 00:25:08.640
love to see it. So,
you know, we saw the stretch of

382
00:25:08.680 --> 00:25:11.039
games that they're in and you know, this winning streak that they're on.

383
00:25:11.599 --> 00:25:15.519
Uh, so many reasons why,
right you know, Norfelfea, the defense,

384
00:25:15.880 --> 00:25:21.279
the way it's stepped up individual guys, and the games that they're having.

385
00:25:22.559 --> 00:25:26.240
What sticks out to you the most
that maybe kind of hasn't been talked

386
00:25:26.240 --> 00:25:29.880
about, mean sort of an under
the radar thing going on with this team

387
00:25:29.960 --> 00:25:33.519
that maybe you notice as a football
player. But Steve and I is just

388
00:25:33.839 --> 00:25:37.759
a couple of fact guys sitting here
don't notice well, you know, I

389
00:25:37.759 --> 00:25:42.680
mean, I mean there's nothing I
would say that the naked I would notice

390
00:25:42.720 --> 00:25:48.240
it. But I just I know
that they have been putting more time in

391
00:25:48.279 --> 00:25:52.880
regards to on the defense end of
the ball in the classroom, you know,

392
00:25:52.960 --> 00:25:56.839
I just you know, know that
because of having a personal relationship with

393
00:25:56.880 --> 00:26:03.880
someone. But but but I think
that is a big reason why the defense

394
00:26:03.920 --> 00:26:07.279
have become who they have become,
because not only the coaching staff, but

395
00:26:07.319 --> 00:26:11.519
the players too. I mean,
the players are in there, they looking

396
00:26:11.559 --> 00:26:15.279
at film, they studying him,
you know, they looking at tennessee things

397
00:26:15.319 --> 00:26:18.359
that that's taking place, and that's
gonna happen and can happen. You know,

398
00:26:18.440 --> 00:26:22.720
and you as a player, if
you can put yourself in that moment

399
00:26:22.759 --> 00:26:26.079
and put yourself in that picture before
it happens. It just become a natural

400
00:26:26.160 --> 00:26:30.319
movement for you. You know,
you see a formation, you see offensive

401
00:26:30.319 --> 00:26:34.079
alignment or running back in a certain
tennessee, all of a sudden you see

402
00:26:34.079 --> 00:26:38.480
that play develop and happen. So
it all you do is just react versus

403
00:26:38.519 --> 00:26:44.079
thinking. And I think that's that's
to me. I think that's the biggest

404
00:26:44.440 --> 00:26:48.839
contribution that has take place defensively.
It's probably on offense side of the ball

405
00:26:48.880 --> 00:26:52.880
too. But the kids are studying
more, you know, they're in the

406
00:26:52.920 --> 00:26:56.039
classroom or they're in the in the
film studying more. They're getting there early

407
00:26:56.079 --> 00:26:59.079
in the morning and late at night, you know, so, I think

408
00:26:59.160 --> 00:27:03.240
Jeddy but made a comment in regards
to a film study right after the the

409
00:27:03.599 --> 00:27:07.440
I think the Utah game. You
know, some of the kids got the

410
00:27:07.480 --> 00:27:11.319
game and got in the classroom and
watch some of the him you know.

411
00:27:11.400 --> 00:27:14.599
So, So if you can get
kids to think that way, you know,

412
00:27:14.640 --> 00:27:18.319
and do those particular things, you
know, the outcome is what it

413
00:27:18.359 --> 00:27:19.480
is. So let me ask you
a question. I don't know if you

414
00:27:19.480 --> 00:27:22.920
can answer, given who you are
and your connection to the team, but

415
00:27:23.039 --> 00:27:26.720
a couple of days ago, Jay
and I were discussing in a couple of

416
00:27:26.759 --> 00:27:33.160
people called I've been watching this this
team, not not with the surgeon's eye,

417
00:27:33.200 --> 00:27:36.559
but have covered them and watched them
for thirty five years now. I

418
00:27:36.559 --> 00:27:40.440
don't know if I've seen a better
player. And I'm saying this with some

419
00:27:40.480 --> 00:27:44.119
reservation, better than T Mac.
And I think that eventually, when he's

420
00:27:44.160 --> 00:27:48.880
gone, he'll be considered one of
the best ones here. He's just got

421
00:27:48.920 --> 00:27:52.640
it all to me, you know
what. You know what, Steve,

422
00:27:52.759 --> 00:27:56.759
I have grown to think that same
way with this kid, and over the

423
00:27:56.839 --> 00:28:02.119
last few games, I have to
think this way with T Mac. I

424
00:28:02.160 --> 00:28:06.960
really have my my younger brother and
I we we we we got this thing

425
00:28:07.039 --> 00:28:11.400
in regards to watching that kid.
At the beginning of the season. You

426
00:28:11.440 --> 00:28:14.119
know me personally, I will sit
down and put my eyes on him,

427
00:28:14.480 --> 00:28:15.880
and I could tell when he's going
to get the ball, and he was

428
00:28:17.000 --> 00:28:19.240
not going to get the ball because
there was a situation where he's not going

429
00:28:19.279 --> 00:28:22.279
to get the ball that he would
just loaf down the field. And I

430
00:28:22.759 --> 00:28:26.200
tell Derek, my my younger brother
named Trek, I said, Derek,

431
00:28:26.200 --> 00:28:30.160
he's not getting the ball this step
and sure enough he's not. And but

432
00:28:30.640 --> 00:28:36.759
over the games he has developed into
that every day player now and and and

433
00:28:36.839 --> 00:28:38.759
that's way we know. The boy
can catch anything that's known at him.

434
00:28:38.839 --> 00:28:42.839
I mean, he just grabbing go. But it's the other things that take

435
00:28:42.880 --> 00:28:48.519
place that gonna make him and and
and I see these things happening to force

436
00:28:48.599 --> 00:28:52.960
him to mature into that Sunday football
player. And that those things is you

437
00:28:53.640 --> 00:28:59.279
play every down, you'd never you
know, sit sit back on any stamp

438
00:29:00.119 --> 00:29:03.920
and your block. And he does
that. And you don't mind catching the

439
00:29:03.920 --> 00:29:06.839
ball going across the middle. You
don't short on it. You know,

440
00:29:06.920 --> 00:29:11.279
you don't get those who we call
alligator arms. So now he has developed

441
00:29:11.279 --> 00:29:15.920
into that pro player, and you
and and and again he has grown over

442
00:29:17.039 --> 00:29:21.720
me, grown on me on the
last least the last few games. But

443
00:29:21.759 --> 00:29:25.279
at the beginning of the season,
I saw those little tendencies that he was

444
00:29:25.319 --> 00:29:29.240
not he was not getting his all
effort. But now he is. Don't

445
00:29:29.279 --> 00:29:33.720
you think that that's that's that's the
type of thing that makes Jed Fish and

446
00:29:33.759 --> 00:29:38.079
the coaching staff that he has.
That's the thing that maybe they have pushed

447
00:29:38.240 --> 00:29:41.319
over the gup that you know,
somebody, somebody went up as a look,

448
00:29:41.480 --> 00:29:45.480
if you want to be in the
NFL, you got to play every

449
00:29:45.519 --> 00:29:48.240
play, you know, and and
have the ability and not not just the

450
00:29:48.319 --> 00:29:52.240
experience, but the willingness to go
up and say that to their star players,

451
00:29:52.240 --> 00:29:55.559
say get off your ass and play. Yeah, and and and that's

452
00:29:55.559 --> 00:29:57.279
the thing that again, those like
you said, those are the type of

453
00:29:57.279 --> 00:30:02.559
coaches that you have out there because
they've bend at all these different levels as

454
00:30:02.559 --> 00:30:06.279
far as of the game, and
they've been around pros or pros, so

455
00:30:06.319 --> 00:30:08.599
they can tell these kids, I'm
telling you for fat Yeah, you know,

456
00:30:08.720 --> 00:30:12.519
if you don't do these certain things, you know, the scout's gonna

457
00:30:12.519 --> 00:30:15.240
notice that. And it can be
a difference of you being a first round

458
00:30:15.279 --> 00:30:18.960
pick or a late round pick,
you know, simply because the fact of

459
00:30:19.079 --> 00:30:22.599
those you know, little tendencies that
you choose not to do and the things

460
00:30:22.640 --> 00:30:26.720
you choose not to do to make
yourself a pro of a pro. And

461
00:30:26.359 --> 00:30:30.559
but yeah, I mean, when
you got guys that's you know, Ricky

462
00:30:30.680 --> 00:30:33.960
and Jed and you know, and
going down the line that's been been at

463
00:30:33.960 --> 00:30:37.799
those levels, you can tell these
kids these days, they listen. So

464
00:30:37.880 --> 00:30:41.880
I'm gonna say something I think you
may have crossed my path early in the

465
00:30:41.880 --> 00:30:45.839
season. Uh, you know,
Mikey doesn't like this, so you convinced,

466
00:30:45.880 --> 00:30:48.039
Yeah, YadA, yeada, you're
like everybody else with me. But

467
00:30:48.359 --> 00:30:52.400
I was convinced early in the Washington
State game. I said, you know,

468
00:30:52.599 --> 00:30:56.799
Jonah is unbelievable. These other guys
are playing hard to this team is

469
00:30:56.799 --> 00:31:00.000
is I'm really liking this team now. It took the Washington State game.

470
00:31:00.240 --> 00:31:03.680
It was a week after the USC
game. When did you start believing the

471
00:31:03.799 --> 00:31:08.440
USC game? The USC game?
When when I when I I saw,

472
00:31:08.839 --> 00:31:12.920
I saw the effort, I saw
the determination, that saw the drive that

473
00:31:14.000 --> 00:31:18.240
those kids was given during that USC
game, And and to me, that

474
00:31:18.759 --> 00:31:22.400
was the turning of their whole season. And I think that game is right

475
00:31:22.519 --> 00:31:26.319
if that game is the reason why
they're in a positionary and today and they

476
00:31:26.480 --> 00:31:30.319
got this six and over run right
now, as far as beating teams and

477
00:31:30.359 --> 00:31:34.519
some of the best teams is they
went into that coliseum, you know,

478
00:31:34.640 --> 00:31:38.240
and probably wanted the colisseum, thinking
that they was gonna get blown out that

479
00:31:38.319 --> 00:31:42.799
college. But they win that Colins
and lost left that colinsm with so much

480
00:31:42.920 --> 00:31:48.119
confidence to say we can play against
the Heisman trophy winner from last year in

481
00:31:48.160 --> 00:31:52.279
the candidate this year and do what
we do the rest of our schedule is

482
00:31:52.359 --> 00:31:56.440
cakewalk. Let's do this interesting.
So okay, so I'm gonna ask you

483
00:31:56.480 --> 00:32:00.039
this is a little bit of a
personal question. Now, No, you

484
00:32:00.039 --> 00:32:02.640
know, I've been here one hundred
years. I've seen all you guys.

485
00:32:02.839 --> 00:32:07.759
You the linebackers that have come through
here. You Ricky Byron Evans, uh,

486
00:32:07.880 --> 00:32:15.039
later on guys like Marcus Bell uh
uh uh uh, Well Bruski wasn't

487
00:32:15.039 --> 00:32:16.839
really a linebacker, he was a
defensive yet here. But uh, you

488
00:32:16.880 --> 00:32:22.240
know Scooby right, all these guys, Jacob manu does he fit in there

489
00:32:22.279 --> 00:32:24.920
somewhere? Is he looking like somebody
who may maybe he's still just a sophomore.

490
00:32:25.240 --> 00:32:28.920
He'll get in. He'll get into
that group of guys. In terms

491
00:32:28.920 --> 00:32:30.839
of the linebackers that have come through
here. Uh, you know, you

492
00:32:30.839 --> 00:32:32.599
know some of the great ones,
you know, a bunch of all Americans

493
00:32:32.640 --> 00:32:36.480
and stuff. Where do you see
him fitting in? Well? You know,

494
00:32:36.799 --> 00:32:39.000
you know, I think he fits
the marker quite a few of the

495
00:32:39.000 --> 00:32:43.400
guys you just name in regards to
the school bees. As far as having

496
00:32:43.400 --> 00:32:45.480
a nose for the ball, I
mean, the kid does have a nose

497
00:32:45.519 --> 00:32:49.680
for the ball. He wants to
be around the ball all the time.

498
00:32:50.039 --> 00:32:54.440
He got that instinct as far as
finding the football in Creighton turnovers. You

499
00:32:54.480 --> 00:32:59.759
know. So I think that's the
Scooby Scooby right type of a player that

500
00:32:59.799 --> 00:33:01.519
I I can see in him.
I can, I mean I can't,

501
00:33:01.839 --> 00:33:06.559
you know, really, you know, bear him up with any other players

502
00:33:06.599 --> 00:33:09.880
because his body structured did a guy. But but as far as the actual

503
00:33:10.000 --> 00:33:14.799
you know, you know, in
your face, you know, demeanor and

504
00:33:14.799 --> 00:33:17.160
and personality wise, I could see, you know, Scooby in him.

505
00:33:17.200 --> 00:33:21.200
I can see some lands Briggs in
him, you know, because he has

506
00:33:21.240 --> 00:33:25.160
that he has that linebacker fall back
mentality, you know, in regards to

507
00:33:25.200 --> 00:33:28.680
I'm gonna meet you on the line
of scrimmage and you know, the best

508
00:33:28.720 --> 00:33:31.799
man gonna win here, and and
and he finds a way of getting his

509
00:33:31.839 --> 00:33:37.039
nose and in some cases being small
allows him to be get in the position

510
00:33:37.240 --> 00:33:40.720
to strike that. You know,
some of the offensive line we can't even

511
00:33:40.720 --> 00:33:44.720
get to him because of his body
size. Of this possy because you get

512
00:33:44.799 --> 00:33:47.359
lost in the line, right,
you know. So so I would say

513
00:33:47.359 --> 00:33:52.480
a little Lance and a little Scooby, you put those two guys together,

514
00:33:52.119 --> 00:33:57.079
you probably got a manue and and
he is if he stays here four years,

515
00:33:57.359 --> 00:34:00.720
he's by farther gonna be one of
our top linebackers that that played here

516
00:34:00.720 --> 00:34:05.799
at There's University in terms of tackles, in terms of turnovers, and all

517
00:34:05.799 --> 00:34:08.679
of these different things. He might
even break ricor record would say with in

518
00:34:08.760 --> 00:34:13.199
terms of interceptions for a linebacker,
because I think Ricky still has that.

519
00:34:14.119 --> 00:34:15.760
Let me ask you one more thing
too, because when we've had you on

520
00:34:15.840 --> 00:34:19.880
the last I think it was early
in the season, I asked you about

521
00:34:19.960 --> 00:34:22.079
Justin Floorda. We asked him about
Justin Flohan, and you stunted, kind

522
00:34:22.079 --> 00:34:25.760
of wait and see, let's see
what this guy does. Let's see what

523
00:34:25.880 --> 00:34:30.800
the workers think is and and I
kind of think, wow, you're kind

524
00:34:30.800 --> 00:34:34.800
of doubting what we see or whatever. But you kind of knew what was

525
00:34:34.840 --> 00:34:38.400
that about? And what did you
see since well, well he at the

526
00:34:38.400 --> 00:34:43.480
beginning of when they you know,
first put Justin and Justin was just a

527
00:34:44.599 --> 00:34:50.360
uh a guy running around. I
think Justin got to the point where you

528
00:34:50.400 --> 00:34:53.400
know, there was there was defenses
that was that was you know, placed

529
00:34:53.400 --> 00:34:57.320
in front of him that he had
to you know, be in his kickle

530
00:34:57.360 --> 00:35:00.920
a position, and I call it, here's your door or man your door,

531
00:35:00.920 --> 00:35:05.400
protect your door. And I think
Jackson put himself in a situation where

532
00:35:05.920 --> 00:35:10.199
he was an assignment ready, you
know, so instead of again instinctly playing

533
00:35:10.199 --> 00:35:15.719
the game of football, he was
thinking too much. He was running around,

534
00:35:15.880 --> 00:35:20.199
you know, not knowing where he's
supposed to be assignment assignment wise,

535
00:35:20.719 --> 00:35:23.960
And I mean you could just look
at his demeanor on the field as far

536
00:35:24.000 --> 00:35:29.639
as when he's lining up, you
know, it looks like he's trying to

537
00:35:29.639 --> 00:35:31.239
figure out what's going on, what
they do and what I need to do.

538
00:35:31.760 --> 00:35:35.400
At that time. It's too late. You can't do that as a

539
00:35:35.440 --> 00:35:37.719
linebacker because I mean, you got
to walk on the field instinctly, you

540
00:35:37.800 --> 00:35:40.920
see the formation, you see what's
going to happen to ball snap, you

541
00:35:40.960 --> 00:35:45.440
go right to your assignment and you
make it happen. But I think,

542
00:35:45.639 --> 00:35:49.920
you know, unfortunate and for whatever
reason, I don't know, you know,

543
00:35:50.159 --> 00:35:52.519
you know anything special than anybody else
know, But me seeing what I

544
00:35:52.559 --> 00:35:57.280
see, I think that kid was
not assignment ready to be up on the

545
00:35:57.280 --> 00:36:01.119
field and maybe still not. Ye
well, he's been you know. I

546
00:36:01.119 --> 00:36:04.960
think the defenses they've been running.
He's not been out there as much as

547
00:36:04.960 --> 00:36:07.360
he was for a period of time, you know, in the middle right

548
00:36:07.360 --> 00:36:12.440
here, But here he is,
he plugging and playing other people. And

549
00:36:12.480 --> 00:36:15.400
they're not even linebackers in case they're
they're defensive back. Yeah, they got

550
00:36:15.440 --> 00:36:22.079
seven. So he plugging and played
these different players, which again that throws

551
00:36:22.159 --> 00:36:25.000
the offense off because now they see
something totally different from where he come from.

552
00:36:25.039 --> 00:36:29.119
Who is this? Why is the
corner playing will blind back? Girl?

553
00:36:29.559 --> 00:36:31.679
You know he should be over there
somewhere, So it throws them off

554
00:36:31.800 --> 00:36:35.880
just as well, you know,
kind of kind of like how a issu?

555
00:36:36.079 --> 00:36:42.440
But that that offensive tackle playing quarterback
against us? Yeah, this must

556
00:36:42.440 --> 00:36:45.280
have been a great year. Well, I won't put words talk about the

557
00:36:45.360 --> 00:36:49.800
year. You and your buddies,
the X guys who have been longing for

558
00:36:49.880 --> 00:36:52.920
a season like this. How do
you guys feel? You know what we

559
00:36:52.920 --> 00:36:58.840
were actually the beauty of watching the
game at home. You get the text

560
00:36:59.039 --> 00:37:01.880
with quite a few guys, guys. You know John Balthall, I know

561
00:37:02.599 --> 00:37:07.519
you guys remember that. But John
was a defensive alignment for he lives in

562
00:37:07.559 --> 00:37:10.880
Texas and John man him and I
was, you know, going back and

563
00:37:10.960 --> 00:37:15.199
forth as far as you know,
uh, you know, talking about the

564
00:37:15.239 --> 00:37:17.719
game and how how great it feels
to be able to watch something like this,

565
00:37:17.880 --> 00:37:22.880
and how probably really are as far
as seeing the product that we see

566
00:37:22.320 --> 00:37:27.519
and particularly the outcome of the games
that we have seen these last few weeks

567
00:37:27.519 --> 00:37:30.840
and stuff. You know, me
as a formal player again, I could

568
00:37:30.880 --> 00:37:36.320
be as as as proud as I
am, you know, watching these kids

569
00:37:36.719 --> 00:37:40.159
become winners again, because hey,
dude, it was a long, long,

570
00:37:40.880 --> 00:37:46.039
long a few seasons and not being
part of a winning team and being

571
00:37:46.079 --> 00:37:51.239
part of winning organization and finally we're
there. I mean, we're finally there,

572
00:37:51.280 --> 00:37:53.440
and you know we could walk around
with our heads up and be very

573
00:37:53.440 --> 00:37:59.079
proud of the product and the kids
that's on that field. Put two more

574
00:37:59.159 --> 00:38:01.880
longs in there, I'm pretty sure. Yeah, I didn't want to.

575
00:38:02.239 --> 00:38:05.519
I didn't want to. I didn't
want to name. You know, the

576
00:38:05.559 --> 00:38:08.440
guys that you know put us in
this wall. We know who they are,

577
00:38:10.199 --> 00:38:15.800
We do know. Thanks them all. Got all right? Well,

578
00:38:15.800 --> 00:38:20.960
well y'all going over to the Bowl. Probably not, we're probably Hey,

579
00:38:21.000 --> 00:38:22.559
I thought I was going to get
a personal invitation. You know, you're

580
00:38:22.599 --> 00:38:27.960
probably helicopter. You're going to be
mad at this, Lamont I had.

581
00:38:28.039 --> 00:38:30.440
I had no inkling that they were
going to be in a post Christmas Bowl

582
00:38:30.480 --> 00:38:35.719
game. So I've got a family
trip set up that it's it's done.

583
00:38:35.960 --> 00:38:37.880
I was thinking, if we go
to a ball, we're going to the

584
00:38:37.880 --> 00:38:42.519
Independence or the Vegas or the l
A ball. I had no plans to

585
00:38:42.559 --> 00:38:45.440
go to a between Christmas and years. That's called pulling a loot, you

586
00:38:45.480 --> 00:38:50.039
know, setting up the uncle trip
because you don't think you can get to

587
00:38:50.079 --> 00:38:55.079
the Sweet sixteen. Hey, that's
all right, we forgive you this year,

588
00:38:55.119 --> 00:39:00.519
but hey it's locked up for next
year for sure. Let's see this

589
00:39:00.760 --> 00:39:02.639
if they could, I know we're
going along. Uh and I'll ask youaid

590
00:39:02.679 --> 00:39:07.119
this because I think it's it's it's
appropriate. Uh, this year was supposed

591
00:39:07.119 --> 00:39:08.719
to happen next year. This is
a year ahead of schedule. Yeah,

592
00:39:09.199 --> 00:39:12.880
schedule right, you know. But
but the thing is, I mean,

593
00:39:13.559 --> 00:39:16.239
Jed just has a way man putting
it out there at the universe. He

594
00:39:16.719 --> 00:39:20.880
sticks it out there at the universe, and and you know, and and

595
00:39:20.960 --> 00:39:24.400
naturally he worked his butt off to
make sure it comes to real. But

596
00:39:24.599 --> 00:39:28.599

I just love the way they place it

take a look back at the Ludolsen era

606
00:40:07.639 --> 00:40:10.159
in my new book, Lessons from
Lut. It was a labor of love

607
00:40:10.199 --> 00:40:14.639
through the eyes of twenty five former
players, coaches, and friends to give

608
00:40:14.679 --> 00:40:16.960
insight to the coach and the man
who led them, competed against them,

609
00:40:17.000 --> 00:40:22.599
and inspired them twenty five chapters for
his twenty five years as Arizona's beloved coach.

610
00:40:22.039 --> 00:40:25.239
Lessons from Lut is an insight to
how he built the program into a

611
00:40:25.320 --> 00:40:30.719
national powerhouse. Want one, Email

picks for for Kevin to to announce
to the masses so that they can go

663
00:44:15.119 --> 00:44:20.280
bet on the opposite teams. Yeah, what do you think about some of

664
00:44:20.320 --> 00:44:22.840
these games? Though I haven't I
haven't looked at it. I haven't looked

665
00:44:22.840 --> 00:44:25.760
at it. The big game is
the Washington Oregon is here. If I

666
00:44:25.800 --> 00:44:29.360
were, if I were a betting
man, I would take Oregon. But

667
00:44:29.360 --> 00:44:31.159
that's a lot of points. That's
nine and a half. Yeah, if

668
00:44:31.159 --> 00:44:35.159
anything, I should have done this
way before when I when Arizona, when

669
00:44:35.199 --> 00:44:37.599
Oregon lost to them first time,
and I said, the organ is gonna

670
00:44:37.599 --> 00:44:39.400
beat them whenever they play the next
time it was been it would have been

671
00:44:39.920 --> 00:44:44.199
a better bet. Yeah, but
uh, I really like Oregon. I

672
00:44:44.280 --> 00:44:47.079
know you still like Washington, but
not to maybe when well see, yeah,

673
00:44:47.079 --> 00:44:50.119
I mean I have mixed feelings about
the one, you know, about

674
00:44:50.119 --> 00:44:53.400
the game tomorrow, because I want
to take Washington because I believed in Washington

675
00:44:53.440 --> 00:44:58.280
all season long, right, you
know, I believed in Michael Pannix.

676
00:44:58.679 --> 00:45:01.639
They're undefeated. They beat Oregon.
Yes, it's hard to beat the same

677
00:45:01.719 --> 00:45:05.239
you know, a team twice and
that game was that at you know,

678
00:45:05.280 --> 00:45:08.360
in Washington, and they won by
three. But you know that's a lot

679
00:45:08.360 --> 00:45:13.719
of points. It's ten now the
points are minus ten things. Yeah,

680
00:45:13.840 --> 00:45:16.440
yeah, So I don't know,
you know, looking at looking at you

681
00:45:16.480 --> 00:45:20.360
know, who's you know, who's
who's done what against the points spread?

682
00:45:20.480 --> 00:45:23.880
Organs eight and three against the spread. I'm trying to find Washington, I

683
00:45:23.880 --> 00:45:27.920
think, the way down on the
list because because they they you know,

684
00:45:27.960 --> 00:45:30.639
they didn't win games by a lot
over the last you know, the last

685
00:45:30.639 --> 00:45:31.960
half of the season. I mean, they won all their games, but

686
00:45:32.000 --> 00:45:35.960
they weren't killing people. And I
mean and they probably should have lost to

687
00:45:36.159 --> 00:45:38.079
uh to a s U if it
wasn't for that passing their France call.

688
00:45:38.360 --> 00:45:44.599
Washington went five and seven against the
spread. So you know, do you

689
00:45:44.639 --> 00:45:49.480
know, okay, you know who
one of the teams with the best record

690
00:45:49.519 --> 00:45:53.000
against the spread is right, Arizona
nine and two. Guess who also has

691
00:45:53.039 --> 00:45:57.559
a nine and two record against the
spread? Would you know this? Would

692
00:45:57.559 --> 00:46:00.159
you know nine and two? Gus
give me a hit? I should.

693
00:46:00.719 --> 00:46:06.679
They're in the West, not air
Force there. I'll even say they're west

694
00:46:06.679 --> 00:46:13.000
of the Rockies. Uh no,
Stafford, I don't know U n l

695
00:46:13.079 --> 00:46:15.840
V. Oh. Yeah, and
I haven't paid much of nine and two

696
00:46:15.920 --> 00:46:19.440
against the spread. I guess why. But you picked they did? They

697
00:46:19.440 --> 00:46:22.920
were nine and one when I picked
him and then did not cover. They

698
00:46:22.960 --> 00:46:25.079
lost. Yeah, I remember that
one. Because you can't write, you

699
00:46:25.119 --> 00:46:30.000
can't make this stuff up. You
know, the dark boards, the big

700
00:46:30.079 --> 00:46:32.679
dark board. Yeah, so he's
eliminated a lot of numbers. He's only

701
00:46:32.719 --> 00:46:37.480
got like two teams because everything else
is off the boards. All right,

702
00:46:37.719 --> 00:46:42.199
okay, so guess who's next?
Steve, You've got a connection to this

703
00:46:42.199 --> 00:46:45.280
school in New Mexico State. Yeah, they're eleven and two. They're they're

704
00:46:45.320 --> 00:46:49.360
pretty good. They played Liberty the
seven point, which which I bet them

705
00:46:49.519 --> 00:46:54.119
the first game they played the Don
Brown Yeah, and Don Brown came in

706
00:46:54.280 --> 00:46:57.679
and they came and beat him right, which I said, I'll never touch

707
00:46:57.800 --> 00:47:00.519
that. And then they went off
and beat Auburn, right, yeah,

708
00:47:00.639 --> 00:47:04.519
huge, and an Auburn player blights
out and almost beat it should have been

709
00:47:04.559 --> 00:47:07.159
Alabama. And that's the problem I
have. Not that it's a problem I

710
00:47:07.159 --> 00:47:09.639
have. I could care less,
but the committee. Okay, you watch

711
00:47:09.679 --> 00:47:13.400
a team, You watch a team, and you watch them that day when

712
00:47:13.400 --> 00:47:16.239
they're not so good, and it's
that game that they're not so good.

713
00:47:17.760 --> 00:47:22.039
You catch them against Sanford, you
think, yeah, and then and yeah,

714
00:47:22.079 --> 00:47:23.519
and then they win their last six
games in a row. Who thought

715
00:47:23.519 --> 00:47:27.599
that that was gonna happen after watching
them against Stanford. Yeah, you catch

716
00:47:27.679 --> 00:47:30.000
them on a bad time and you
see him against Colorado. These guys aren't

717
00:47:30.000 --> 00:47:35.199
that good. Yeah, and guess
who's guess who's next? Friend of ours?

718
00:47:36.199 --> 00:47:39.280
A friend of ours? Uh?
Utah, the show? I guess

719
00:47:39.320 --> 00:47:46.920
I would call a friend of the
show. Uh uh who Rich Roy?

720
00:47:47.000 --> 00:47:51.239
Yeah? Yeah, yes, and
he just got beat by New Mexico stake

721
00:47:51.280 --> 00:47:53.840
Yeah yeah, six and two against
the spread. They Now, these these

722
00:47:53.880 --> 00:47:58.239
games don't count against you know,
we don't count spreads against f c S

723
00:47:58.320 --> 00:48:00.800
teams, so these are all you
know, FBS FBS games. And then

724
00:48:00.880 --> 00:48:05.440
James Madison, after that crazy numbers
up there, let's take this call.

725
00:48:07.519 --> 00:48:09.679
It's Richard. Hey, Richard,
how you doing great? Man? Hey?

726
00:48:09.840 --> 00:48:14.400
Uh, I wanted to call real
quickly, just uh wish the Oklahoma

727
00:48:14.440 --> 00:48:17.119
State Cowboys. Uh, you know
who got into the Big Tech Championship game

728
00:48:17.159 --> 00:48:21.280
because of bad call. I would
to wish them, uh, best of

729
00:48:21.360 --> 00:48:25.039
luck against the Texas Steerhorns. Hey, hot down there in that Arlington.

730
00:48:25.079 --> 00:48:30.079
How did Oklahoma State's coach become the
Big twelve coach of the year. It

731
00:48:30.239 --> 00:48:36.920
was probably that interference call they missed
against in the game. Steve, you

732
00:48:36.960 --> 00:48:39.159
know, put him over the top. Uh No, that's good for good.

733
00:48:39.360 --> 00:48:43.480
I'm happy for him. That's fine. You know, he he deserves

734
00:48:43.519 --> 00:48:45.639
He's been around for a long time. I didn't know he'd won it.

735
00:48:45.119 --> 00:48:51.119
Yeah, I heard. So that's
probably giving the fingers to this Circasian because

736
00:48:51.159 --> 00:48:54.800
he was living in one. Yeah. Well, I think if he had

737
00:48:54.840 --> 00:49:00.599
an injections what you were injecting with
the personality might have uh, all sudden

738
00:49:00.639 --> 00:49:06.880
he turned into game. Yeah,
Texas, I understand. You know they

739
00:49:06.880 --> 00:49:09.199
don't have a fight song, do
you. You might know what Texas fight

740
00:49:09.320 --> 00:49:14.639
song is, but I understand that
they're going to the SEC that got a

741
00:49:14.679 --> 00:49:20.519
new song. It's it's a dueling
ban Jos from the movie Deliverance. Okay,

742
00:49:20.559 --> 00:49:22.920
we got the implication with the Infra
and that would be their new song

743
00:49:23.000 --> 00:49:29.239
heading on down into Dixie. But
anyway, Ali Gordon runs for two hundred

744
00:49:29.280 --> 00:49:34.280
yards Saturday, and I think he
will. Okay, it should be fun.

745
00:49:34.840 --> 00:49:36.880
All these games are great. I
mean it's gonna be a great Yeah.

746
00:49:37.119 --> 00:49:38.880
Great, this this season has been
a real celebration, isn't it.

747
00:49:38.960 --> 00:49:43.159
I mean, this is fantastic this
year. I'm glad. You've just been

748
00:49:43.199 --> 00:49:45.880

frill for the for Arizona. Yeah,

749
00:49:45.880 --> 00:49:50.519

How would you like that? Oh?

751
00:49:53.400 --> 00:49:55.760
I think it'd be a great game, you know. I think that's a

752
00:49:55.800 --> 00:50:00.519
really good matchup. Yeah, and
you know, you know Arizona, I

753
00:50:00.559 --> 00:50:04.480
think we'll have the psychological edge and
that if not even the better team.

754
00:50:04.679 --> 00:50:07.519
So we'll see what happens. As
soon as you're going to dress, I

755
00:50:07.519 --> 00:50:09.519
mean, they've got a lot of
talent. So do they still have the

756
00:50:09.800 --> 00:50:13.360
running backs coach? That was here? He was a Dallas Cowboy running back

757
00:50:13.400 --> 00:50:16.400
and then yeah, DeMarco Murray yeah. Is he still with Oklahoma, Yes,

758
00:50:16.440 --> 00:50:22.039
and we just we just moved Cepha
Trail to the offensive coordinator position after

759
00:50:22.280 --> 00:50:24.400
Jeff Leeve he took the Mississippi State
job. Yeah, former Arizona guy.

760
00:50:24.480 --> 00:50:29.679
Yeah, yep, yep, and
former Sooner. But anyway, you know,

761
00:50:29.760 --> 00:50:32.519
good luck them Cowboys. Well I
know I'm rooting. I know I'm

762
00:50:32.559 --> 00:50:36.440
rooting for him because I don't want
I don't want Texas moving up ahead of

763
00:50:36.440 --> 00:50:38.880
his day in Oregon or something like
that. So no, exactly, no,

764
00:50:39.079 --> 00:50:44.400
we want the Pac twelve really deserves
somebody being the championship playoffs. I

765
00:50:44.440 --> 00:50:47.719
mean it's in the final four.

Some of a Gabe there for a
second. Okay, all right,

769
00:51:02.400 --> 00:51:06.519
well that look, it's been fun. I loved I loved the interview we

770
00:51:06.559 --> 00:51:08.920
had with Paula. Boy, that
was that was awesome. If you're just

771
00:51:08.920 --> 00:51:12.800
getting into the show listening to the
Latin, didn't catch the first hour,

772
00:51:13.159 --> 00:51:15.960
go catch that if you got some
curious, you know, curious about how

773
00:51:16.599 --> 00:51:21.920
the college football playoff committee works.
She gave us a lot of good information

774
00:51:22.000 --> 00:51:23.440
in there. I think you'd like
to hear that now, you know.

775
00:51:23.480 --> 00:51:25.960
She wasn't commenting on who should get
in this year and who should not,

776
00:51:27.519 --> 00:51:30.480
But you got, as we said, we got behind the curtain over there,

777
00:51:30.519 --> 00:51:32.440
and I thought that was some good
stuff that we got. We got

778
00:51:32.559 --> 00:51:37.119
from Paula. So right on.
Our two was with Tounley from Lamont.

779
00:51:37.840 --> 00:51:42.960
Always good, fun, fun conversation
with Lamont. Yeah, I love the

780
00:51:42.960 --> 00:51:45.760
fact that he doesn't go upcase you
games either. Yeah I heard that and

781
00:51:45.800 --> 00:51:49.280
I think, you know, well
I didn't know why and then obviously now

782
00:51:49.280 --> 00:51:51.719
I know why. But you guys
have the same kind of story. Yeah,

783
00:51:52.280 --> 00:51:54.440
yeah, so yeah, similar stories. But anyways, there was a

784
00:51:54.440 --> 00:51:59.880
lot of U Way fans. It
was about sixty forty yell no they go,

785
00:52:00.360 --> 00:52:02.159
they go. I don't know,
but there is you guys weren't gonna

786
00:52:02.159 --> 00:52:06.599
go because then you this was a
possibility, right right. It's just you

787
00:52:06.639 --> 00:52:07.840
know, and again there's still a
lot of people that go. And if

788
00:52:07.880 --> 00:52:10.519
you're if you've never been to one, and it's you know, it can

789
00:52:10.599 --> 00:52:14.239
be fun. It's just I had
a bad experience and I don't go back

790
00:52:14.280 --> 00:52:17.280
to places where I had bad experiences, right, isn't that Isn't that like

791
00:52:17.320 --> 00:52:22.000
a really smart thing to do once
you know? Yeah, so that's what
