WEBVTT 1 00:00:01.879 --> 00:00:05.000 It was Dreamy Live. I mean, I heart radio WAP. This is 2 00:00:05.200 --> 00:00:10.919 High on the Ball with Steve Rivera and Jaken Salez on Fox Sports fourteen fifteen. 3 00:00:13.039 --> 00:00:15.480 Hey, welcome back to in the Ball here on Fox Sports fourteen fifty. 4 00:00:15.640 --> 00:00:19.039 I'm Steve Rivera, you Jakensaris, and I totally forgot about breaking news 5 00:00:19.719 --> 00:00:25.920 alas is High on the Ball Reaky news on Fox Sports fourteen fifty. Okay, 6 00:00:25.960 --> 00:00:28.920 so you might remember that we had Jim Young on the show back in 7 00:00:29.280 --> 00:00:33.359 late July. He had to put out sort of a public He wrote a 8 00:00:33.439 --> 00:00:37.240 letter that then got put out on social media saying that he thought Bruce Hill 9 00:00:37.679 --> 00:00:41.320 was his quarterback when he got here back in nineteen seventy five or nine seventy 10 00:00:41.320 --> 00:00:45.039 three, was ended up being one of the great quarterbacks at Arizona. How 11 00:00:45.119 --> 00:00:48.920 he thought he should be in the in the Ring of Honor at Arizona Stadium. 12 00:00:49.240 --> 00:00:53.079 He is already in the you of a athletic Hall of Fame. But 13 00:00:53.799 --> 00:00:58.439 school announced today that's like program announced say that Hill will be added to the 14 00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:03.959 Arizona flip Our Ring of Honor at the homecoming game on November fourth. So, 15 00:01:04.640 --> 00:01:11.159 whether Jim's letter or somebody else called attention to this deservedly in the Ring 16 00:01:11.159 --> 00:01:12.519 of Honor. And you know I got you know, I was a teenager 17 00:01:12.560 --> 00:01:17.480 when he was playing here. Got to see those three teams that he that 18 00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:21.519 he quarterbacked. They were really fun to watch, you know, just I 19 00:01:21.519 --> 00:01:23.359 mean, the guy had a rocket for an arm, he had some guys 20 00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:26.760 to throw too. He had t Bell one another one of the all time 21 00:01:27.159 --> 00:01:32.280 great receivers at Arizona. And so he's, uh, he's in the ring. 22 00:01:32.280 --> 00:01:34.079 He's gonna be in the Ring of Honor this year. Cool. It's 23 00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:40.040 very cool. Uh, it's cool. And look those teams were he would 24 00:01:40.599 --> 00:01:44.200 a lot of a lot of has talked about that. Larry Smith put you 25 00:01:44.200 --> 00:01:47.599 know, Arizona on the map. But even before that, Jim Young came 26 00:01:47.599 --> 00:01:51.120 over here, and you know they had three great to three or four great 27 00:01:51.159 --> 00:01:56.359 seasons beat as U at a time when the Arizona just never never beat ASU. 28 00:01:56.480 --> 00:01:59.079 They had some some really good players. T Bell was in the NFL 29 00:01:59.480 --> 00:02:01.879 for a lot of years, I think with the Steelers, So you know, 30 00:02:02.040 --> 00:02:05.719 these guys were these guys were really good. I mean they're in the 31 00:02:05.760 --> 00:02:09.000 whack. You were ranked a bunch, So you know, again, well 32 00:02:09.039 --> 00:02:14.800 deserved for Bruce Hill to be getting into the ring of monor cool. All 33 00:02:14.919 --> 00:02:16.280 right, So, hey, I know if you saw this creeped up on 34 00:02:16.319 --> 00:02:21.360 me. I hadn't seen it until last night. And it's something that happened 35 00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:24.879 on Sunday. But there was a Patriots fan who got in a fight. 36 00:02:25.120 --> 00:02:30.960 Ye died. Now, as of last night, they were saying it was 37 00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:34.479 a due to an injury in a fight because he got punched a couple of 38 00:02:34.479 --> 00:02:38.319 times. But now they're saying it was after an autopsy's saying it was it 39 00:02:38.360 --> 00:02:43.560 was an unrelated medical issue. Now, he wasn't a fight, there's no 40 00:02:43.639 --> 00:02:46.159 denying that the video of it. But they're saying that the fight and there 41 00:02:46.199 --> 00:02:50.879 was not not a traumatic injury that he had, and they called it an 42 00:02:50.960 --> 00:02:57.199 unspecified medically. So you're telling me, Jay that this guy older guy six 43 00:02:57.280 --> 00:03:00.000 Okay, that's even sad because he's younger than me. So he stopped to 44 00:03:00.120 --> 00:03:02.879 six years old. Had he just gotten up left and and I'm not talking 45 00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:06.840 about fight, he's just gotten up, said you said goodbye to the game 46 00:03:06.960 --> 00:03:09.120 and went home, this would have happened. He might have. Now there 47 00:03:09.280 --> 00:03:12.759 they called it unspecified. Did he have a you know, did he have 48 00:03:12.800 --> 00:03:15.759 a heart attack because of the fight, right right? Or did he have 49 00:03:15.199 --> 00:03:20.400 did the fight cause some other medical issue? Legal? What the what they're 50 00:03:20.400 --> 00:03:23.240 saying is he did not have a traumatic injury. So he got punched in 51 00:03:23.240 --> 00:03:27.199 the face. People though we got punched in the face, so you know, 52 00:03:27.199 --> 00:03:30.879 he got a brain hammers. It wasn't anything like that. So now, 53 00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:35.479 yes, you get in a stressful situation like that. Yeah, so 54 00:03:35.719 --> 00:03:38.719 does it say what happens to the guy who hit him or who There's still 55 00:03:38.800 --> 00:03:44.560 been no charges or anything filed, nothing legally that guy saved Oh maybe maybe 56 00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:51.800 he maybe? Now you you can bet your you know whatever that this guy's 57 00:03:51.879 --> 00:03:54.520 family is going to get a lawyer, sure, and they're gonna go try 58 00:03:54.560 --> 00:04:00.159 and and squeeze something out of the guy who you know who you know was 59 00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:03.800 in the fight with him. But we don't know who started the fight, 60 00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:08.159 how did they They've got all kinds of video of it, so I'm sure 61 00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:11.360 some of this stuff will come out. But but they're just saying that an 62 00:04:11.360 --> 00:04:18.560 autopsy showed that he died of an unspecified medical issue and it wasn't a traumatic 63 00:04:18.639 --> 00:04:26.199 injury that caused his death. But how do we get into Monday night before 64 00:04:26.319 --> 00:04:29.079 this word got out about this, this guy died. I mean we didn't 65 00:04:29.079 --> 00:04:31.079 know about it yesterday. No, No, he had seen it again early 66 00:04:31.199 --> 00:04:34.800 this morning and saw that. This is what you see him a lot well 67 00:04:34.879 --> 00:04:38.279 cameras now we everyone has in one camera. Right. You see all these 68 00:04:38.279 --> 00:04:40.959 fights you watch, you see video of the fight, and all you see 69 00:04:40.959 --> 00:04:44.839 a people instead of people around him trying to stop the fight, everybody's trying 70 00:04:44.879 --> 00:04:48.199 to video of the fight because they know exactly exactly. It's funny because I 71 00:04:48.199 --> 00:04:50.959 don't know, and I don't go to games that much anyway. I went 72 00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:54.279 to a Diamondback game a while block. But the last thing I would do 73 00:04:54.439 --> 00:04:56.319 Jay, the last thing I would do, and I don't do it. 74 00:04:56.360 --> 00:05:00.160 Now we're an opposing uniform of some other time somewhere, like the Dodgers and 75 00:05:00.279 --> 00:05:03.480 the Giants. It's like every other day. It's something. I would never 76 00:05:03.519 --> 00:05:08.720 wear Dodging gear to a Giant's game, but I will to a diamond Backs 77 00:05:08.759 --> 00:05:14.199 game because I'll keep it a harmless He's about five day everybody, he's about 78 00:05:14.199 --> 00:05:16.680 five foot eight, five foot time, but overweight, gray hair. You 79 00:05:16.720 --> 00:05:23.160 can't miss him. Looks at George Lopez again. So letters to me sending 80 00:05:23.240 --> 00:05:29.879 letters to this guy. All right, I'll be looking for another partner and 81 00:05:30.279 --> 00:05:33.680 I'll have an unspecified medical that's right, right. He died from diabetes, 82 00:05:34.040 --> 00:05:41.680 not from being beat All right, okay, hey women, Arizona women's basketball 83 00:05:41.720 --> 00:05:46.720 has lost another player, a transfer who was supposed to be sort of a 84 00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:51.560 developing player, Fantag Gussama has left the program. So they're down to ten 85 00:05:51.639 --> 00:05:57.639 players, uh for for the season right now? Who's Arizona women's basketball? 86 00:05:58.319 --> 00:06:02.600 Oh? Yeah, wow? Because they had season an injury month. Montea 87 00:06:02.680 --> 00:06:06.759 do had it season? Any injury? Now? Uh? Is that a 88 00:06:06.800 --> 00:06:11.040 good This is dumb question. Well, now you can have the graduate assistant 89 00:06:11.160 --> 00:06:13.800 the guys kind of play a practice, so sure that happens already. Where 90 00:06:13.879 --> 00:06:17.040 the guys have enough players? I mean Aery McDonald's she was you know, 91 00:06:17.160 --> 00:06:19.879 she was stuff. But they're they're down to temple if she was a front 92 00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:25.399 court player. So I don't know, we'll see, but uh, you 93 00:06:25.399 --> 00:06:29.959 know, numbers of numbers appear to be started to become an issue for well, 94 00:06:29.959 --> 00:06:32.480 that's the whole thing Jay for her. I don't know if that's a 95 00:06:32.480 --> 00:06:35.879 good thing or a bad thing, because I think one of the things that's 96 00:06:36.000 --> 00:06:38.959 pragged her in the past, and I don't know this to be. In 97 00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:43.839 fact, I'm just a doctor playing in the radio. That depth in terms 98 00:06:43.920 --> 00:06:46.839 of making everybody or keeping everybody happy hard, it's hard. So now that 99 00:06:46.879 --> 00:06:50.160 you only have ten, it will be that hard. Yeah, it shouldn't 100 00:06:50.199 --> 00:06:55.360 be that hard, you would think. So. Anyways, let's see what's 101 00:06:55.399 --> 00:07:00.360 my next thing. Okay, another hazy and scandal. UH Boston College. 102 00:07:00.360 --> 00:07:06.560 I'm shocked, JA, the swimming and diving has been suspended. They're just 103 00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:13.959 they stopped the entire program because because of hazing. The statement from UH from 104 00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:16.759 the I guess the athletic department. The Boston College Men's and women's swimming and 105 00:07:16.759 --> 00:07:23.720 diving program has been placed on indefinite suspension after university administrators determined that hazing had 106 00:07:23.720 --> 00:07:27.879 occurred within the program. The university does not and will not tolerate hazing in 107 00:07:27.920 --> 00:07:31.399 any form. During the suspension, all swimming and diving student athletes will continue 108 00:07:31.399 --> 00:07:35.959 and have access to academic and medical resources provided to all Boston College students. 109 00:07:36.399 --> 00:07:41.399 Jayden, just an estimate, and I have no idea. I'm throwing numbers 110 00:07:41.399 --> 00:07:46.079 out now. The hundred and whatever Division one programs out there whatever. The 111 00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:49.560 twenty five percent of them at least go through this, yeah, at least 112 00:07:49.759 --> 00:07:54.199 without without looking into it, right, right, no, no doubt. 113 00:07:55.120 --> 00:07:59.839 And twenty five being conservative? Uh no, yeah, I think a look 114 00:07:59.839 --> 00:08:01.600 at the probably right yeah, probably a little higher than that. Yeah, 115 00:08:01.600 --> 00:08:07.160 absolutely, absolutely all right. Kind of a mysterious thing going up going on 116 00:08:07.199 --> 00:08:13.480 with the Bears. Their their their defensive coordinators suddenly resigned today. He said 117 00:08:13.480 --> 00:08:16.759 he's taking a step back to take care of his health and his family. 118 00:08:16.199 --> 00:08:18.800 But you know we're talking, you know, three games, two games into 119 00:08:18.800 --> 00:08:24.759 the season, and he has quit. There was some rumor that there was 120 00:08:24.800 --> 00:08:31.040 some sort of a law enforcement thing going on, and that's been shot down. 121 00:08:31.079 --> 00:08:35.039 They said they had nothing to do with any of that. But you 122 00:08:35.080 --> 00:08:37.279 know, Alan Williams, the defensive coordinate in Chicago, Bears just up and 123 00:08:37.399 --> 00:08:43.799 quits. They also got rid of one of the backup quarterbacks, so and 124 00:08:43.799 --> 00:08:48.000 and the problement is one of their leading quarterback there's not doing very well. 125 00:08:48.120 --> 00:08:52.159 Very good, yeah, very good. So you know, jumping on the 126 00:08:52.600 --> 00:08:58.639 on the uh uh deon Sanders bandwagon is none other than Nick Saban, who 127 00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:03.679 in all that's right, that's why I never mind it. There there it's 128 00:09:03.679 --> 00:09:09.000 a whole marketing things. His quote was, they play with discipline, they 129 00:09:09.039 --> 00:09:11.960 do a good job of executing, They've been able to score points, playing 130 00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:16.799 decent on defense. All those things to me are indicated. Jay, there's 131 00:09:16.799 --> 00:09:20.159 one hundred and thirty whatever. Do as you would football prographs. Who in 132 00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:24.559 the right mind, whether you playdon or not, would be asked the question 133 00:09:24.559 --> 00:09:28.799 what do you think about Dan and say something bad? You're right, I 134 00:09:28.840 --> 00:09:33.879 would, I could, I wanted. You know what I'm saying. I 135 00:09:33.960 --> 00:09:35.960 know they're not gonna say any bad, whether they believe it or they do. 136 00:09:37.320 --> 00:09:39.960 Plus, he's I forgot, he's sort of a business per together. 137 00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:43.360 Yea, a flat commercials together. All right, See this one's right up 138 00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:50.720 your alley. Poker care about this? So a poker player went on social 139 00:09:50.759 --> 00:09:58.279 media said he's got stage four colon cancer, started to go fund me page, 140 00:09:58.639 --> 00:10:03.559 go fund me account he raised because he wanted to he wanted to play 141 00:10:03.600 --> 00:10:07.000 in the World Series of Pokers. He raised I think they said fifty thousand 142 00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:15.440 dollars in donations, including donations from another poker player who who has who has 143 00:10:15.559 --> 00:10:18.320 cancer, And then it came out that he in fact does not have cancer. 144 00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:22.519 And after he played, you know in the uh in the in the 145 00:10:22.519 --> 00:10:26.039 World Series of Poker, and he says he's not giving the money back. 146 00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:33.960 So I said, his name is Whereas Rob Mercer from Baiejo, California. 147 00:10:35.600 --> 00:10:41.879 It was it was figuring. People started getting suspicious because he was seeing gambling 148 00:10:41.919 --> 00:10:45.000 on the floor at the casino where this was all going on. So they're 149 00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:48.240 saying, is he gambling the money that that was donated to him. People 150 00:10:48.320 --> 00:10:52.159 started asking questions, and then he finally came out and he said, I 151 00:10:52.200 --> 00:10:56.799 did lie about having colon cancer. I don't have colon cancer. I used 152 00:10:56.799 --> 00:11:00.720 that to cover my situation. What I did was wrong and I told people 153 00:11:00.720 --> 00:11:03.600 I have colon cancer. I did that just as a spur of the moment 154 00:11:03.639 --> 00:11:05.879 thing when someone asked me what kind of cancer I had. I'm sorry for 155 00:11:05.960 --> 00:11:09.799 not being honest about what my situation was. If I would have done that 156 00:11:09.879 --> 00:11:13.440 from day one, who knows what would have happened. And but then again 157 00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:18.360 he said he's ai, Okay, okay, so did you go don't do 158 00:11:18.399 --> 00:11:24.240 that. I know you're thinking about it, but you will take donation if 159 00:11:24.279 --> 00:11:26.279 people want to give him to you. I'm on. I feel like I 160 00:11:26.360 --> 00:11:28.480 told some of the other day. I'm like, we can. Bernie's guy. 161 00:11:28.600 --> 00:11:31.360 The only thing that is keeping me up on my meds. You know, 162 00:11:31.120 --> 00:11:35.639 No, I had my audis and all that stuff. Keep you because 163 00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:37.759 I'm always shorting my stomach. COEs man, all right, I have something 164 00:11:37.840 --> 00:11:41.480 once you okay, one one more, one more quick? On Bryce Young, 165 00:11:41.279 --> 00:11:46.679 who the Caroline Panthers quarterback king did a nice shop on you know they 166 00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:50.559 covered but did you know?

Hey, 285 00:20:11.640 --> 00:20:14.680 welcome back to A on the Ball here on Fox Sports fourteen fifty. I'm 286 00:20:14.720 --> 00:20:17.640 Steve Rivero, you're Jakins as Now on the phone, we have bow Breck 287 00:20:18.039 --> 00:20:21.720 from p h n X Cardinals who in Phoenix. How are you both? 288 00:20:22.440 --> 00:20:26.160 Great guys, Thanks for having me. Great to have you on the show. 289 00:20:26.200 --> 00:20:29.839 We're kind of kind of curious what is going on with the Cardinals. 290 00:20:32.119 --> 00:20:34.279 I mean, that's that's a tough question to ask right there. I mean 291 00:20:34.319 --> 00:20:37.519 we could go several different directions with it, but as far as you know, 292 00:20:37.920 --> 00:20:41.519 blowing a twenty one point lead in the fourth, you know, in 293 00:20:41.559 --> 00:20:45.480 the second half, that's probably the biggest question. You're asking, correct, 294 00:20:45.640 --> 00:20:47.920 Yeah, yeah, and we only have thirteen minutes here, so we will 295 00:20:47.960 --> 00:20:52.000 solve the world problems. What what what do you see? You know, 296 00:20:52.039 --> 00:20:56.759 are they you know, just because they don't have their starting quarterback? You 297 00:20:56.799 --> 00:21:00.519 know, are there some good things going on? What do you set so 298 00:21:00.640 --> 00:21:04.759 far? No? On a sense is a team that's competing in the first 299 00:21:04.799 --> 00:21:08.720 two weeks of the season that everybody counted out before the twenty twenty three season 300 00:21:08.799 --> 00:21:14.960 kicked off. Obviously, you know a fan base watching their team relinquished two 301 00:21:15.079 --> 00:21:18.519 leads, it's it's devastating, right, two games that they could have won. 302 00:21:18.400 --> 00:21:21.839 That's heartbreaking, right, that's a tough pill of the swallow. But 303 00:21:21.960 --> 00:21:25.920 I think you're seeing the new coaching staff gets put its fingerprints all over this 304 00:21:25.960 --> 00:21:27.920 team, and it's a rebuilt at the end of the day. I mean, 305 00:21:27.960 --> 00:21:32.880 this is a team that hit the reset button in January, hired a 306 00:21:32.920 --> 00:21:36.880 new coach, hired new GM, hired a new front office, scouting department, 307 00:21:37.279 --> 00:21:41.440 and they're putting in motion trying to build a new culture. And it's 308 00:21:41.480 --> 00:21:42.759 tough to do that on the fly. And you know, I don't think 309 00:21:42.799 --> 00:21:47.359 that the expectations were far off for this team, where if you're gonna base 310 00:21:47.400 --> 00:21:49.119 it off of just how many wins are they going to get, you're gonna 311 00:21:49.119 --> 00:21:53.839 come away disappointed. But if you look at them developing a culture and setting 312 00:21:53.880 --> 00:21:59.200 themselves up for success in the future and sustained success, something that this organization 313 00:21:59.279 --> 00:22:02.759 hasn't had and it moved to the Valley of the Sun back in the late 314 00:22:02.799 --> 00:22:04.920 eighties, I think that you should be, you know, encouraged by the 315 00:22:04.960 --> 00:22:07.920 direction of this team. It was funny to me. I watched some of 316 00:22:07.920 --> 00:22:11.119 the game on Saturday or Sunday, and I'm thinking to myself, as they 317 00:22:11.119 --> 00:22:15.799 were losing the lead, I said, the bit of old party gave again 318 00:22:15.880 --> 00:22:18.160 in a call about late in the fourth courses, you know, we're supposed 319 00:22:18.160 --> 00:22:25.759 to be losing these games, right, Tank didn't get the memo, right, 320 00:22:25.839 --> 00:22:27.400 No, I mean it looks I mean they couldn't get off the field 321 00:22:27.400 --> 00:22:30.640 in the second half. I mean that was a big problem. Through six 322 00:22:30.720 --> 00:22:34.119 quarters, their defense was their strength, and then things just fell apart and 323 00:22:34.160 --> 00:22:38.559 it was five straight scoring drives, including four touchdowns from Daniel Jones and the 324 00:22:38.599 --> 00:22:42.319 Giants who had been shut out at that to that point in the season, 325 00:22:42.400 --> 00:22:45.759 and it's just it was inexcusable. I mean, at no point can you 326 00:22:45.839 --> 00:22:48.480 say, hey, you know, you could joke about a tank or or 327 00:22:48.759 --> 00:22:52.920 whatever is going on. You can't ever say, hey, it's you get 328 00:22:52.920 --> 00:22:55.759 a pass for giving up, you know, a twenty nothing leading in a 329 00:22:55.839 --> 00:22:59.880 twenty eight seven lead. It was. It was a brutal, brutal hit 330 00:23:00.079 --> 00:23:03.519 for this organization. But I think some encouraging things and you're hearing some nice 331 00:23:03.559 --> 00:23:07.599 response from the coaching staff and the players early this week. The past gets 332 00:23:07.640 --> 00:23:11.400 even harder now, I mean it's well, Washington, it's not the Giants, 333 00:23:11.720 --> 00:23:15.119 it's two of the powers in the NFC right now, one of the 334 00:23:15.119 --> 00:23:18.519 teams that are playing the best football. Dallas comes into town this Sunday, 335 00:23:18.519 --> 00:23:22.039 and then you've got the San Francisco forty Niners the following week. You know, 336 00:23:22.480 --> 00:23:23.680 this was this kind of came up with a with a guest, a 337 00:23:23.720 --> 00:23:26.920 couple or maybe even just last week. You know, how much does the 338 00:23:26.960 --> 00:23:32.519 winning and losing actually matter this year? Right? You mentioned it's a rebuild 339 00:23:33.519 --> 00:23:37.440 and I'm not talking about actually tanking. But you know, is whatever the 340 00:23:37.519 --> 00:23:41.480 record is at the end of the season any kind of a really big deal 341 00:23:41.519 --> 00:23:45.559 to fans or you know, fans want to win, but in the end, 342 00:23:45.759 --> 00:23:48.880 it's like, you don't expect him to do much this year. No, 343 00:23:49.200 --> 00:23:52.519 and you know, this roster isn't in a position to compete right now, 344 00:23:52.599 --> 00:23:56.079 and I think everybody realizes that. But they want to see this team 345 00:23:56.960 --> 00:24:00.440 get elevated from its coaching staff if they want to know that they made the 346 00:24:00.519 --> 00:24:04.680 right decision and hiring Jonathan Gannon, he made the right decisions and hiring a 347 00:24:04.799 --> 00:24:10.000 staff, and that the guys that are making the calls as far as offense 348 00:24:10.079 --> 00:24:14.000 and defense and special teams are the right people in place, and they want 349 00:24:14.000 --> 00:24:17.359 to try to use this where the expectations aren't high as far as wins and 350 00:24:17.400 --> 00:24:22.160 losses, to kind of decide that right. And if the team just sudden't 351 00:24:22.160 --> 00:24:25.039 come out and compete and they're getting blown out each and every week, which 352 00:24:25.039 --> 00:24:29.359 hasn't happened yet. They've been competitive, and they're taking their lumps as a 353 00:24:29.400 --> 00:24:32.559 new coaching staff, which was expected. You know, that's fine, But 354 00:24:32.640 --> 00:24:34.960 at some point, if they lose the locker room, if losing really just 355 00:24:36.039 --> 00:24:38.720 kind of wears on everybody, then that's where it becomes an issue. I 356 00:24:38.720 --> 00:24:44.079 mean, if they're struggling and they're owing ten and Week ten and they've lost 357 00:24:44.160 --> 00:24:47.839 the locker room and you see a horrible product out out there on the field 358 00:24:47.839 --> 00:24:49.799 the rest of the way, then that's an indictment on the coaching staff, 359 00:24:51.079 --> 00:24:55.279 albeit where they set up for success, probably not, but it's it's going 360 00:24:55.319 --> 00:24:59.480 to be important to kind of keep these spirits up in that locker room and 361 00:24:59.480 --> 00:25:03.039 in the FA based they'll be able to tell throughout the way. UH. 362 00:25:03.279 --> 00:25:06.759 That's that's just gonna be the most important thing. I mean, you can 363 00:25:07.039 --> 00:25:10.480 you can lose games, but you can't not be competitive, and so far 364 00:25:10.599 --> 00:25:15.000 we're seeing the best of both worlds. What the necessary medicine is for this 365 00:25:15.119 --> 00:25:18.279 organization, you know, find out a lot about your coaching staff, your 366 00:25:18.319 --> 00:25:22.240 players who you've been moved forward with, and then also maybe be in the 367 00:25:22.240 --> 00:25:26.279 best position possible to draft the best players come next next Springs draft. So 368 00:25:26.519 --> 00:25:32.039 I'm curious, how long have you been covering the team and how young are 369 00:25:32.079 --> 00:25:36.759 you? And I asked that from two old dudes. Yeah, I mean, 370 00:25:37.400 --> 00:25:40.039 not that young any longer. But I've been covering the team for over 371 00:25:40.079 --> 00:25:42.519 a decade. Started at Fox Sports nine ten, the ir Heart affiliate up 372 00:25:42.559 --> 00:25:48.200 here in Phoenix. UH, covered the Cardinals and and got got a press 373 00:25:48.279 --> 00:25:52.960 credential that way back at the end of the ken Wizzen Hunt Europe and then 374 00:25:52.039 --> 00:25:56.960 you know, went from there and I'm in the late late thirties. Okay, 375 00:25:56.960 --> 00:26:02.519 so perfect question. Then, So I wanted to engage your your fandom, 376 00:26:02.519 --> 00:26:04.559 not your fandom, but the fan base because you've seen it, you've 377 00:26:04.599 --> 00:26:08.880 seen it for for a while. Now, can they continue to be patient 378 00:26:10.359 --> 00:26:15.680 and are they? Wow? Man? That that's that's a really tough question. 379 00:26:15.680 --> 00:26:18.079 I mean, if you looked at the stands on Sunday, you would 380 00:26:18.079 --> 00:26:22.680 have seen that the patients has kind of run out and there wasn't a huge 381 00:26:22.680 --> 00:26:26.319 appetite for the beginning of another rebuild. I mean, it's going to take 382 00:26:26.720 --> 00:26:32.640 a lot of faith from fans that to buy into another rebuild and say, 383 00:26:32.680 --> 00:26:36.599 hey, this, we've got it wrong the previous ten times and now we're 384 00:26:36.599 --> 00:26:40.200 going to get it right this time. But I think that you're seeing some 385 00:26:40.359 --> 00:26:44.559 encouraging things from Gannon and Mania Support, who took over for the time, 386 00:26:44.599 --> 00:26:51.799 who left this the organization ceremoniously in December resigned. You know, it's it 387 00:26:51.920 --> 00:26:55.200 is tough to be at the very beginning of this, but to see like 388 00:26:55.279 --> 00:26:59.839 the positive direction and already see all the draft capital that they've accumulated, and 389 00:27:00.079 --> 00:27:03.440 we're gonna make a decision as far as what the franchise quarterback is, you 390 00:27:03.480 --> 00:27:07.400 know, soon after the season. I think that that's it's a it's a 391 00:27:07.680 --> 00:27:11.160 it's I don't know, it's exciting is the right word. But uh, 392 00:27:11.240 --> 00:27:14.720 it just really feels like, for the first time or a long time, 393 00:27:14.960 --> 00:27:18.000 things are trending slowly, albeit in the right direction. So if you didn't 394 00:27:18.000 --> 00:27:22.519 have a big fan base over the weekend, I guarantee you'll have one on 395 00:27:22.559 --> 00:27:26.480 Sunday. But they'll be worrying Blue. I was just gonna say, now 396 00:27:26.480 --> 00:27:29.680 you got the you got the Cowboys coming in for what will probably be more 397 00:27:29.720 --> 00:27:33.880 of a home game for them. Yeah, it's gonna be. That's always 398 00:27:33.920 --> 00:27:37.440 a tough pill to swallow, but I mean that's they travel so well, 399 00:27:37.480 --> 00:27:41.799 they're all over the place. It's it's kind of a disease. It's it's 400 00:27:41.880 --> 00:27:45.359 across the United States being Cowboys fan. I'm glad I got over my disease. 401 00:27:48.720 --> 00:27:52.680 It is it is and they're and they're you know, they're they're not 402 00:27:52.759 --> 00:27:56.359 fun. They're not fun. Kind of wait, because they're you know the 403 00:27:56.400 --> 00:28:00.279 Cowboys. Here's the here it is, here's why, because the Cowboys haven't 404 00:28:00.319 --> 00:28:04.160 been good, but they think they should have should be Wait wait, wait 405 00:28:04.160 --> 00:28:07.559 this boat. Let me tell you this is coming from a Dodgers guy. 406 00:28:07.720 --> 00:28:10.599 Well, they haven't won a World Series in a thousand years until a couple 407 00:28:10.599 --> 00:28:15.640 of years ago exactly. So tell you, right, So tell us a 408 00:28:15.680 --> 00:28:21.559 little bit about what what need what needs fixing more than anything? Obviously, 409 00:28:21.599 --> 00:28:23.480 you know you got you got Kyler Murray on the sidelines, and I'm gonna 410 00:28:23.480 --> 00:28:27.119 ask you about him in a second. But what needs fixing? Is it? 411 00:28:27.200 --> 00:28:30.240 Is it stuff on the field? Is it? Culture? Is it? 412 00:28:30.599 --> 00:28:33.079 You know? Management of the roster? I mean, where do you 413 00:28:33.119 --> 00:28:37.640 think the big issue is right now? You know it was there was so 414 00:28:37.680 --> 00:28:41.279 many issues and they had to clean up such a mass from the previous regime 415 00:28:41.400 --> 00:28:45.599 that it was trucked to really kind of PenPoint. But you know, the 416 00:28:45.680 --> 00:28:49.279 roster is is one where it can kind of pivot in any direction. But 417 00:28:49.400 --> 00:28:52.759 you know, I think that the biggest thing is if there's not a whole 418 00:28:52.759 --> 00:28:55.279 lot of talent on this roster, and they want to be a draft and 419 00:28:55.319 --> 00:28:59.319 developed team, so it's gonna come via the draft next spring, so that's 420 00:28:59.359 --> 00:29:03.640 where they're going to kind of expedite this rebuild that way. And then as 421 00:29:03.640 --> 00:29:07.799 far as the culture, there's been an extreme culture shift with this organization. 422 00:29:07.960 --> 00:29:11.160 You know. DJ Humphreys, their left tackle, said, uh, you 423 00:29:11.200 --> 00:29:15.759 know, this was a culture shock. So things have changed drastically as far 424 00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:21.400 as the people kind of making the decisions there for the Arizona Cardinals, and 425 00:29:21.920 --> 00:29:25.200 I think people are excited about, you know, the direction that it's going. 426 00:29:25.319 --> 00:29:27.640 So, you know, with with a better culture in place and soon 427 00:29:27.720 --> 00:29:33.519 to get some better players on the roster and hopefully better drafting and developing. 428 00:29:33.920 --> 00:29:37.559 You know, I think that that finally some consistency you'll see through this organization 429 00:29:37.599 --> 00:29:41.680 going forward. That does Gannon look like he was ready for this job? 430 00:29:41.960 --> 00:29:45.039 Yeah? He does. I mean he was completely prepared for this. This 431 00:29:45.119 --> 00:29:49.680 was a job that he turned out maybe some collegiate opportunities because he was dead 432 00:29:49.680 --> 00:29:53.839 set on being an NFL coach and this is this is the job that he 433 00:29:53.880 --> 00:29:56.359 wanted and he was prepared for it. You know, people ask, well, 434 00:29:56.599 --> 00:30:00.119 did he compromise his preparation for the Super Bowl? Uh? In order 435 00:30:00.160 --> 00:30:03.400 to get ready for this job? And I'd say no, I mean this 436 00:30:03.480 --> 00:30:06.839 is a job that he'd been preparing for for his entire coaching career, and 437 00:30:06.880 --> 00:30:11.000 Monti Austin Ford identified him the previous summer, and he saw that he was 438 00:30:11.000 --> 00:30:17.240 an up and coming guy as far as leader of NFL players, and you're 439 00:30:17.279 --> 00:30:19.519 starting to see that, you know, he's really got the command of that 440 00:30:19.559 --> 00:30:23.400 locker room here in Arizona. How I don't want to go backwards, but 441 00:30:23.440 --> 00:30:29.920 I'm going to do it anyway. How bad of a decision was hiring Cliff 442 00:30:30.400 --> 00:30:34.559 because it didn't make any sense at the beginning nor at the end. Yeah, 443 00:30:34.559 --> 00:30:37.119 it was a bad decision. It was one of the more unprecedented moves 444 00:30:37.160 --> 00:30:41.319 in NFL history to take a guy who's a failed to college coach thirty five 445 00:30:41.599 --> 00:30:45.839 forty at Texas Tech, fired from his alma monitor uh, and then make 446 00:30:45.920 --> 00:30:48.519 him an NFL coach. It was It was really one of those weird, 447 00:30:48.880 --> 00:30:53.079 weird moves. But you know, it really was unfortunate, and you know, 448 00:30:53.119 --> 00:30:56.079 it looked like it might have been the right move because you saw him 449 00:30:56.519 --> 00:31:00.039 improve your year in and year out. He went three wins, the five 450 00:31:00.079 --> 00:31:03.920 wins, eight wins, solemn wins, and then he fell off a cliff 451 00:31:04.920 --> 00:31:08.839 for lack of a better term, and Max now he's the quarterback coach for 452 00:31:08.960 --> 00:31:12.839 USC and probably a better spot for him. Yeah, made no sense to 453 00:31:12.920 --> 00:31:18.400 me go ahead and ask me a question. Okay, so Kyler Murray. 454 00:31:18.960 --> 00:31:21.720 First of all, I'm not even get into whether or not they should have 455 00:31:21.759 --> 00:31:26.640 signed him do this contract. But I need a backup quarterback. And my 456 00:31:26.680 --> 00:31:32.119 fantasy football team, I had Aaron Rodgers and I drafted him as a backup. 457 00:31:32.400 --> 00:31:36.079 He's out. I need a backup quarterback. Kyler Murray's out there and 458 00:31:36.119 --> 00:31:40.160 available in free agency in our in our fantasy league. Do I go get 459 00:31:40.200 --> 00:31:44.480 it or not? I would hold off on that. I think he's still 460 00:31:44.519 --> 00:31:47.359 got time. I mean, he posted on TikTok today that he wants to 461 00:31:47.400 --> 00:31:49.240 be back soon, but this is a serious injury, and I think they're 462 00:31:49.279 --> 00:31:53.400 gonna take their time. He's got He's at least out the next two weeks, 463 00:31:52.440 --> 00:31:56.000 right, He's right. I would I would hold off of that, 464 00:31:56.039 --> 00:32:00.720 and you could probably wait until he's at least activated and they'll get him up 465 00:32:00.759 --> 00:32:04.440 to speed practice wise, and then maybe that might be the time to jump 466 00:32:04.480 --> 00:32:07.200 in on Kyler Murray early and you'll still have enough time. What's the what's 467 00:32:07.240 --> 00:32:12.119 the what's the thinking on whether or not he's going to be any good this 468 00:32:12.200 --> 00:32:15.480 year or how long it's going to take him to get good. No, 469 00:32:15.599 --> 00:32:19.279 I mean I think that the thinking is he's gonna get right back in there, 470 00:32:19.279 --> 00:32:21.519 and he's gonna have a new offense that he's gonna play in, and 471 00:32:21.559 --> 00:32:24.000 he's gonna, you know, uh, kind of revert back a couple of 472 00:32:24.039 --> 00:32:28.720 years where he was on the right trajectory, and new coaching staff and in 473 00:32:28.799 --> 00:32:32.640 better situation should bode well for for Kyler Murray. So uh yeah, I 474 00:32:32.680 --> 00:32:36.559 think it's going to be something to look forward to for Cardinals fans. So, 475 00:32:37.359 --> 00:32:38.640 uh, guys, I gotta run. I gotta get jumped on my 476 00:32:38.640 --> 00:32:42.839 own show. I appreciate the thank you, thank you, Okay, bo, 477 00:32:42.920 --> 00:32:45.640 we appreciate it, man, Thank you much. She will thank you 478 00:32:45.720 --> 00:32:47.319 very much. Take care. Yeah, bo Bo. I was gonna ask 479 00:32:47.359 --> 00:32:52.200 him, does he believe that I'm not come there? I'm doing two hundred 480 00:32:52.200 --> 00:32:53.680 thousand miles away from Phoenix, right, So what do I know? But 481 00:32:53.720 --> 00:32:58.839 I know he's a smallest quarterback who has to scramble out to be effective, 482 00:32:59.400 --> 00:33:02.359 and he's already been hurt a few times. I'm not buying. I'm selling 483 00:33:02.519 --> 00:33:06.200 I only need it for like two games. Well and then like when, 484 00:33:06.640 --> 00:33:10.160 like when Trevor Lawrence has a has a bye week. I was gonna tell 485 00:33:10.200 --> 00:33:15.960 both realize that with Jay's asking you, because this history is not good with 486 00:33:15.039 --> 00:33:21.480 quarterbacks or players. So Aaron Rodgers going, what the hell happens? Yeah, 487 00:33:21.519 --> 00:33:28.839 something in Arizona's making me twitch. You're giving me the hiccups. All 488 00:33:28.920 --> 00:33:31.960 right, let's take our last break. Oh God, hiccups. You're gonna 489 00:33:32.000 --> 00:33:35.920 We're gonna come back. We'd love to hear from me. Give us a 490 00:33:35.920 --> 00:33:39.279 call five two zero four one seventy four forty and we'll talk about anything. 491 00:33:39.319 --> 00:33:43.200 You want to talk about, Stanford game coming up, what's going on in 492 00:33:43.200 --> 00:33:47.319 Colorado, all kinds of stuff, Dead fan at at in New England, 493 00:33:47.759 --> 00:33:50.960 all kinds of news.

You know, My account has never been down to zero, you 588 00:40:35.880 --> 00:40:37.519 know, because I've always had money in there and and I've taken some out, 589 00:40:37.519 --> 00:40:40.519 you know, to go to other stuff with. So we we highly 590 00:40:40.599 --> 00:40:45.519 encourage you. If you're you know kind of like a little action on some 591 00:40:45.559 --> 00:40:46.760 games and stuff like that. You don't give it a shot, it's your 592 00:40:46.760 --> 00:40:51.679 worse and if you do, make sure you do go to fourteen fifty when 593 00:40:51.679 --> 00:40:55.280 you sign up, and I make a little correction on We talked about this, 594 00:40:55.440 --> 00:41:02.880 uh resignation of Alan Williams, the defensive coordinator at at the Chicago Bears. 595 00:41:04.239 --> 00:41:07.159 There was a report that there had been some sort of an FBI raid 596 00:41:07.199 --> 00:41:10.800 at Allis Hall, which is the Bears facility. That is not true. 597 00:41:10.840 --> 00:41:16.440 However, apparently there was an FBI raid at Allen Williams home. So this 598 00:41:16.559 --> 00:41:20.760 resignation that he said is because he's got to take care of his health. 599 00:41:21.599 --> 00:41:23.320 There seems to be a little bit more to it than that, and so 600 00:41:23.360 --> 00:41:28.599 we'll find out what, you know, what becomes of that. I don't 601 00:41:28.599 --> 00:41:30.960 know, man, But what are you doing that? The FBI is watching 602 00:41:31.000 --> 00:41:35.079 you right well? You know you know who would know? We kind of 603 00:41:35.119 --> 00:41:37.039 no, we will eventually know. Pat Binley. Yep. We gotta go 604 00:41:37.039 --> 00:41:40.320 get him because you know we love the sexy stuff, all right, So 605 00:41:40.400 --> 00:41:46.880 here you go, Steve. According to Draft Kings, of the top eight 606 00:41:49.559 --> 00:41:54.800 Heisman top eight in the odds to win the Heisman Trophy, how many of 607 00:41:54.840 --> 00:42:06.360 those are pac twelve players Top eight, Top eight, three four four out 608 00:42:06.400 --> 00:42:12.599 of eight Williams Caleb Williams is the fave plus three sixty. Michael Pennocks is 609 00:42:12.719 --> 00:42:16.679 next at plus five hundreds. So Arizona's got those two guys coming up after 610 00:42:16.679 --> 00:42:21.599 this Stanford game. They're in the next two weeks. After that, You've 611 00:42:21.639 --> 00:42:28.239 got uh, Shdoor Sanders, that's the sixth player plus eighteen hundred, eighteen 612 00:42:28.320 --> 00:42:31.920 hundred, and then bow Knicks at Oregon at plus twenty five hundred. Four 613 00:42:32.000 --> 00:42:37.559 of the top eight candidate or eight odds to win the Heisman Trophy are Pack 614 00:42:37.599 --> 00:42:43.239 twelve quarterbacks. As a scary thought, Arizona doesn't have to play bow Knicks. 615 00:42:43.639 --> 00:42:45.400 They do have to play Shador Sanders. They do have to play Michael 616 00:42:45.440 --> 00:42:50.360 Pennocks, and they do have to play. Caleb Williams quinn yours is in 617 00:42:50.400 --> 00:42:52.760 there. Sam Harbin from Notre Dame, the quarterback and Notre Dame is in 618 00:42:52.800 --> 00:42:57.360 there. Jordan Travis, the QB at Florid State is in there, and 619 00:42:57.519 --> 00:43:00.360 Jayden Daniels, the former a SU guy not the quarterback at LSU is in 620 00:43:00.440 --> 00:43:07.480 there. The highest rated receiver or non quarterback is Marvin Harrison Junior, who 621 00:43:07.599 --> 00:43:12.880 is I guess in the ten spot at plus twenty eight hundred. So I'm 622 00:43:13.280 --> 00:43:15.320 you know, I'm sticking with Michael Pennocks. Man. He's uh, he's 623 00:43:15.360 --> 00:43:19.920 the real deal. You know. It's kind of funny. I alluded to 624 00:43:19.960 --> 00:43:23.119 this in the conversation I had. He's like that left handed hitter who's just 625 00:43:23.159 --> 00:43:28.199 got a beautiful swing. Right. We always talk about how left handed baseball 626 00:43:28.199 --> 00:43:31.320 players just have incredibly fluid swings. He lets he lets go of the ball 627 00:43:31.400 --> 00:43:36.360 and it's like no effort and he'll throw it away the hell down the field. 628 00:43:36.400 --> 00:43:38.320 He is really good. Yeah, I think he's really really good. 629 00:43:39.239 --> 00:43:46.880 Anyways. All right, ay do you see Nick Folk AFC Special Teams players. 630 00:43:47.360 --> 00:43:54.320 He's older than dirt, isn't he Yeah, but Dirt can still kick. 631 00:43:55.400 --> 00:43:59.480 I'll have double Kick'll have double dirt. He had he had a game 632 00:43:59.480 --> 00:44:05.719 winner, uh in overtime against U Who did they beat? They beat the 633 00:44:05.800 --> 00:44:09.119 Chargers. My dark horse super Bowl team is over too. Yeah, they're 634 00:44:09.719 --> 00:44:13.760 done. They need a court, they need a coach, they need a 635 00:44:13.800 --> 00:44:16.360 coach. He's not he's not capable of giving him. He sorry, justin 636 00:44:16.480 --> 00:44:20.559 sorry, Jake. He's not the guy. He's just not the guy. 637 00:44:20.800 --> 00:44:22.920 I mean, how many how many years do you need to know or see 638 00:44:23.360 --> 00:44:28.840 to see that he's not the guy, because they've been kind of this way 639 00:44:28.840 --> 00:44:30.960 all the one and it seems like they got good players, right, Yeah, 640 00:44:31.119 --> 00:44:34.800 just got one a better christin Herberts than elite quarterback. Yeah, I 641 00:44:34.840 --> 00:44:37.119 think, and they've been in Dames. But if you can't win these games, 642 00:44:37.360 --> 00:44:40.880 will they come back that or the game that they blew in the playoffs 643 00:44:42.559 --> 00:44:45.800 Jacksonville? Exactly exactly. And he's a young dude. They got the guy 644 00:44:45.840 --> 00:44:50.320 from Washington Dallas, right, the offensive coordinator that's not gonna help Dallas couldn't 645 00:44:50.400 --> 00:44:53.760 use him. Yeah, it's just kind of like shifting shifting chairs on the 646 00:44:53.840 --> 00:44:59.960 Titanic. Honestly, come on, this team is better than two and all 647 00:45:00.039 --> 00:45:06.199 I yelled the justin Justin spears he's pretty crying. She is the emotion from 648 00:45:06.280 --> 00:45:08.320 him, poor guy, Justin, You're not gonna make it to thirty weeks. 649 00:45:08.920 --> 00:45:14.639 Jump off this team, please or listen to me. Don't don't follow 650 00:45:14.719 --> 00:45:22.039 sports. Oh my gosh, I like tested, what the what the hell? 651 00:45:22.400 --> 00:45:23.239 You know? The Chargers? I mean, you know they're making me 652 00:45:23.280 --> 00:45:27.159 look bad? He goes, they're making me look bad. I haven't seen 653 00:45:27.159 --> 00:45:31.599 any of his emojis. The picture came out once going of him laying on 654 00:45:31.599 --> 00:45:36.119 his side. Yeah, that's all he needs to do is make one of 655 00:45:36.119 --> 00:45:40.639 those. Michael Jordan with his face of the one of those that'd be fun. 656 00:45:42.119 --> 00:45:45.400 But man, you know again and who they gut this week? Steve? 657 00:45:45.119 --> 00:45:52.480 I remember, I don't know. Let's see, I'm gonna see because 658 00:45:52.119 --> 00:45:55.840 again, like they're one of those teams where you think they gotta come out 659 00:45:55.880 --> 00:45:59.400 of this, right they gotta win a game. But I kind of thought 660 00:45:59.400 --> 00:46:02.519 that about the Bengals right there. The Bengals can't lose again because because they 661 00:46:04.000 --> 00:46:07.679 you know, they lose again their screen, who's their backup? Do we 662 00:46:07.719 --> 00:46:09.679 determine who they're backup? Was Cincinnati. Maybe they're not as good as we 663 00:46:09.719 --> 00:46:12.880 thought when they were and they needed him. He's been out, he was 664 00:46:12.880 --> 00:46:15.880 out six weeks before he came back. Well, he looks like he hasn't 665 00:46:15.880 --> 00:46:17.519 played right. He looks like he was not ready for this. Yeah. 666 00:46:17.840 --> 00:46:24.159 Yeah, the Chargers. The Chargers are at Minnesota and their favor by excuse 667 00:46:24.199 --> 00:46:28.159 me. At one point, Okay, I've got a call, you know 668 00:46:28.239 --> 00:46:30.880 it called maybe that's justin thoutas that we're good badmouth in his Chargers. Hi, 669 00:46:31.000 --> 00:46:34.880 you're on the air and I on the ball. How's it going today? 670 00:46:35.039 --> 00:46:39.239 What's up? Brian? Just calling about the game this King this Saturday. 671 00:46:39.360 --> 00:46:44.159 All right, man, what do you think they should win? You 672 00:46:44.280 --> 00:46:47.960 know, there's no doubt about it. As long as they don't make mistakes, 673 00:46:49.519 --> 00:46:52.480 they'll win the game. You know, they beat you death. They 674 00:46:52.519 --> 00:46:57.440 made what the one mistake? Yeah? One turnover? Yeah, the one 675 00:46:57.519 --> 00:47:02.000 turnover and it uh. You know this, this team doesn't have they have 676 00:47:04.079 --> 00:47:07.559 that, they don't have any They have to make sure that they win a 677 00:47:07.960 --> 00:47:12.440 turnover battle every game, every game they have a chance to win. And 678 00:47:12.559 --> 00:47:15.320 Jed made a point that they haven't done that yet. That you know, 679 00:47:15.440 --> 00:47:19.679 obviously that all the turnovers they had against them a Mississippi State up and they 680 00:47:19.719 --> 00:47:22.480 were equal in the also in the NAU game, so they haven't had the 681 00:47:23.800 --> 00:47:28.480 turnovers. Yeah, you know, I mean, I mean, you are 682 00:47:28.559 --> 00:47:31.000 playing U Tap and you know the only thing that probably disappointed me about the 683 00:47:31.119 --> 00:47:35.280 U Tap game. You know, I didn't care we only scored thirty one 684 00:47:35.360 --> 00:47:37.679 points. Whatever hell it was, it didn't matter to me. I didn't 685 00:47:37.719 --> 00:47:44.880 think our defensive line put enough pressure on that quarterback. Okay, and that 686 00:47:45.039 --> 00:47:49.079 quarterback missed a lot of throws of people that were wide open. Yeah, 687 00:47:50.480 --> 00:47:55.360 and we're gonna we're gonna have to get better penetration on the defensive line because 688 00:47:57.199 --> 00:48:00.840 there's no more gimmeis even though suppose league Stanford, but we don't know what 689 00:48:00.880 --> 00:48:05.039 Stanford is going to be. They won their first game and they laid in 690 00:48:05.400 --> 00:48:08.320 the second game, so you know they are playing at home. Conference open 691 00:48:08.400 --> 00:48:12.960 there for him. You know, you never can't tell I have no idea. 692 00:48:13.239 --> 00:48:16.400 Let me ask you for you to feel good about a win, do 693 00:48:16.480 --> 00:48:19.360 they have to beat the hell out of them or are you going to be 694 00:48:19.440 --> 00:48:24.639 happy with any win? No, I'm happy with the clean win, Okay, 695 00:48:25.320 --> 00:48:29.760 all right, I mean it has to be. Okay, I look 696 00:48:29.800 --> 00:48:31.280 at who they're playing. I mean, I was happy with the win. 697 00:48:31.599 --> 00:48:35.519 I was. I thought they played a very good game. You know. 698 00:48:35.679 --> 00:48:39.119 They weren't out there trying to throw the ball seventy eighty yards down the field 699 00:48:39.199 --> 00:48:44.199 whatever, just methodically moved the ball, did a very good job at it. 700 00:48:45.039 --> 00:48:49.440 Okay, I hear you. Yeah, you know, and you know 701 00:48:49.559 --> 00:48:52.440 to me, that will win games to me because they could control the clock, 702 00:48:52.800 --> 00:48:57.840 control the ball on both sides, and we have a we have a 703 00:48:57.880 --> 00:49:04.599 good shot to meet that six win. Okay. Steve thinks are gonna win 704 00:49:04.679 --> 00:49:10.400 eight? Steve thinks are gonna win eight? Who's gonna Steve said that. 705 00:49:10.639 --> 00:49:15.960 You know, that's not right. The only way Steve wouldson are gonna win 706 00:49:16.039 --> 00:49:24.559 eight is they combined two years. Thanks for listening, all right. Obviously 707 00:49:24.639 --> 00:49:31.519 you guys must have gone to Rostico again and Jay forgot what's going on that 708 00:49:31.599 --> 00:49:35.039 could happen. No, I still think that's gonna be fine. It's gonna 709 00:49:35.039 --> 00:49:37.159 be five or six. That's the way I look at it. I think 710 00:49:37.199 --> 00:49:39.760 so too. Yeah, I think you know, I'm I still think it's 711 00:49:39.760 --> 00:49:45.880 six. I'd be disappointed if it wasn't six. And that's sort of the 712 00:49:45.960 --> 00:49:47.400 line that's sort of the continues to be the line this year, right, 713 00:49:47.440 --> 00:49:50.480 And they're right where we thought they would be. They're tuning one, but 714 00:49:50.800 --> 00:49:52.280 that's where we thought. Okay, yeah, okay, Brian, thanks much, 715 00:49:52.320 --> 00:49:57.440 mank you soon later. Brian's always good in this call. Yeah, 716 00:50:00.480 --> 00:50:05.039 yeah, I wish I had a partner like that. I can be eleven 717 00:50:05.559 --> 00:50:07.280 though you can't be. I'm not even gonna try and go there. I'm 718 00:50:07.280 --> 00:50:13.920 definitely not gonna go there. You know, I don't know. I again, 719 00:50:14.840 --> 00:50:16.440 you kind of want them to be impressive, right, you want airs 720 00:50:16.480 --> 00:50:20.960 wanted to be impressive, to beat the hell out of somebody one time to 721 00:50:21.039 --> 00:50:25.239 maybe but you know, going I know, maybe maybe maybe I'm too I've 722 00:50:25.280 --> 00:50:29.119 got too much Dick Tomy and me and said to say, you go on 723 00:50:29.199 --> 00:50:31.039 the road in the PAC twelve and you win a game, you take any 724 00:50:31.119 --> 00:50:36.400 win you get, of course, thirteen to twelve or you know, fifty 725 00:50:36.480 --> 00:50:39.400 to twenty, of course. But but Jay, if they went fifteen to 726 00:50:39.559 --> 00:50:44.960 twelve, you're worried. You're gonna be Yeah, You're worried because then you 727 00:50:45.039 --> 00:50:47.239 got Washington coming into town, right, I mean, you feel like you 728 00:50:47.320 --> 00:50:51.079 want to see him go put forty on the board. Yeah, you want 729 00:50:51.079 --> 00:50:54.320 to. You want to see them continue to get better against a perceived bad 730 00:50:54.400 --> 00:50:59.679 team. Will happen? Who knows, but you think it should happen, 731 00:51:00.159 --> 00:51:06.039 right, you know this team, If this team is better and considered better 732 00:51:06.320 --> 00:51:12.760 offensively and defensively, shouldn't they beat this team by twenties? Should eleven and 733 00:51:12.800 --> 00:51:15.239 a half? I think it's really low. I like the number. I 734 00:51:15.320 --> 00:51:19.480 really do. I really do, even on the road, and we know 735 00:51:19.559 --> 00:51:22.000 how how typicult it is to r. I hate double digit favorites on the 736 00:51:22.079 --> 00:51:27.400 road. But how college are you say that? Okay, so, how 737 00:51:27.519 --> 00:51:30.320 how are you doing this year? I'm terrible? Go the other go the 738 00:51:30.400 --> 00:51:36.360 other way. Your theories aren't working nothing. I want to give you a 739 00:51:36.440 --> 00:51:38.320 point with this. I know, I know, I know, I know, 740 00:51:38.639 --> 00:51:43.360 I know all the theories. I've gotten four out of fifteen games. 741 00:51:43.480 --> 00:51:46.719 Right, how are you doing this year? You know? Somebody just joined 742 00:51:46.920 --> 00:51:52.880 the pool and I'm only two ahead of them. They missed the first three 743 00:51:52.960 --> 00:51:57.280 weeks and I'm feel only two ahead. That person could be ahead of me 744 00:51:57.320 --> 00:52:00.880 by next by the end of the week. Yeah, I hate that, 745 00:52:00.360 --> 00:52:05.719 all right, Okay, Well, good stuff today, Greg mckinstrey.
