<v Speaker 1>It's time for coffee and Company, fueled by Thornton's on

<v Speaker 1>Sports Talk seven nine day. Now, here's Nick coffee.

3
00:00:27.320 --> 00:00:28.719
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's get it started.

4
00:00:28.879 --> 00:00:31.079
<v Speaker 3>Hour number two here on a Monday, as we get

5
00:00:31.440 --> 00:00:33.359
<v Speaker 3>rby week started, it.

6
00:00:33.399 --> 00:00:34.359
<v Speaker 2>Is coffee and Company.

7
00:00:34.439 --> 00:00:36.799
<v Speaker 3>We are fueled by Thornton's here on Sports Talk seven

8
00:00:36.920 --> 00:00:39.759
<v Speaker 3>ninety As you could expect, a lot of reaction to

9
00:00:39.799 --> 00:00:42.880
<v Speaker 3>the NFL Draft, will continue to do that. A lot

10
00:00:42.880 --> 00:00:45.359
<v Speaker 3>of talk about Tyler Shuck in New Orleans. Hated to

11
00:00:45.399 --> 00:00:49.200
<v Speaker 3>see how much the New Orleans fans, New New Orleans

12
00:00:49.240 --> 00:00:53.799
<v Speaker 3>Saints fans seem to not like what their their their

13
00:00:53.840 --> 00:00:56.200
<v Speaker 3>team decided to do as far as their their second

14
00:00:56.280 --> 00:00:58.119
<v Speaker 3>round pick. I mean again, if you if you're taking

15
00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:00.920
<v Speaker 3>in the second round early as a quarterback, I mean

16
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:03.240
<v Speaker 3>I have a hard time thinking there's ever a scenario

17
00:01:03.320 --> 00:01:06.159
<v Speaker 3>where that franchise the draft shoe, they're not hiring you

18
00:01:06.280 --> 00:01:09.120
<v Speaker 3>to eventually be their franchise quarterback. It doesn't always work

19
00:01:09.120 --> 00:01:14.319
<v Speaker 3>out that way. But with Derek Carr's injury being I

20
00:01:14.359 --> 00:01:16.760
<v Speaker 3>guess even a little more serious than folks realized, I

21
00:01:16.799 --> 00:01:19.519
<v Speaker 3>think that was one of the things that was somewhat

22
00:01:19.519 --> 00:01:21.239
<v Speaker 3>of a of a of a news item leading up

23
00:01:21.239 --> 00:01:23.519
<v Speaker 3>to the draft is that his shoulder injury.

24
00:01:23.760 --> 00:01:26.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it's it's not it doesn't look good.

25
00:01:27.079 --> 00:01:30.040
<v Speaker 3>So that could give Shuck an opportunity and where he

26
00:01:30.120 --> 00:01:33.560
<v Speaker 3>has maybe not the ceiling as a as some other

27
00:01:33.640 --> 00:01:36.680
<v Speaker 3>quarterbacks like a Cam Warder, maybe even a Shadoor Sanders.

28
00:01:37.400 --> 00:01:40.879
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I'd say the floor is really high for him,

29
00:01:41.680 --> 00:01:45.439
<v Speaker 3>and you know, watching him and I know, you know,

30
00:01:45.439 --> 00:01:48.200
<v Speaker 3>it's just one year. I mean, he can make all

31
00:01:48.200 --> 00:01:51.599
<v Speaker 3>the throws. He's not perfect, but what's really been, you know,

32
00:01:51.879 --> 00:01:55.640
<v Speaker 3>funny And I've not been in any way like triggered

33
00:01:55.680 --> 00:01:58.159
<v Speaker 3>by it because to me, it's funny. It's not I

34
00:01:58.200 --> 00:02:01.359
<v Speaker 3>mean the past that he had in one he had

35
00:02:01.359 --> 00:02:04.280
<v Speaker 3>an interception against Boston College in the first half that

36
00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:06.959
<v Speaker 3>it might be honestly one of the as good as

37
00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:08.479
<v Speaker 3>he was this year, and who knows, maybe he has

38
00:02:08.520 --> 00:02:10.520
<v Speaker 3>a great NFL career. It might have been one of

39
00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:12.560
<v Speaker 3>the worst interceptions I've ever seen. I think he was

40
00:02:12.599 --> 00:02:14.680
<v Speaker 3>a lot more he just kind of like chucks it. Yeah,

41
00:02:14.840 --> 00:02:16.840
<v Speaker 3>I think he was trying to throw it out of bounds,

42
00:02:16.879 --> 00:02:18.400
<v Speaker 3>but he did a poor attempt at that and it

43
00:02:18.439 --> 00:02:20.879
<v Speaker 3>was like he just underhand lobbed it to somebody to,

44
00:02:20.960 --> 00:02:23.280
<v Speaker 3>you know, to take it the other way. And then

45
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:25.599
<v Speaker 3>there was there was the pass at the combine that

46
00:02:25.680 --> 00:02:28.639
<v Speaker 3>of course went viral, and obviously those weren't good looks,

47
00:02:28.639 --> 00:02:32.039
<v Speaker 3>but I mean, he ninety nine percent of the time

48
00:02:32.240 --> 00:02:33.800
<v Speaker 3>looked really good.

49
00:02:33.759 --> 00:02:38.680
<v Speaker 2>And those were clearly outliers. So the tape speaks for itself.

50
00:02:38.719 --> 00:02:40.039
<v Speaker 3>And I don't say that as somebody to try to

51
00:02:40.080 --> 00:02:42.280
<v Speaker 3>act like I can break down film like I'm some

52
00:02:42.319 --> 00:02:46.639
<v Speaker 3>big football guy, but I mean he's good. And that's

53
00:02:46.680 --> 00:02:48.719
<v Speaker 3>why it was a weird year for Louisville fans, because

54
00:02:49.599 --> 00:02:53.240
<v Speaker 3>you had those losses early that made it pretty clear

55
00:02:53.280 --> 00:02:55.120
<v Speaker 3>you were going to have a really, really tough time

56
00:02:55.159 --> 00:02:59.080
<v Speaker 3>competing for the ACC championship and even of course the

57
00:02:59.080 --> 00:03:01.680
<v Speaker 3>playoff too, and it just kind of felt like, man,

58
00:03:01.840 --> 00:03:04.039
<v Speaker 3>we're we have a really good quarterback who's showing that

59
00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:07.400
<v Speaker 3>he's special, and yet we are losing. And typically Louisville

60
00:03:07.719 --> 00:03:10.719
<v Speaker 3>is able to I mean, some of our biggest season's

61
00:03:10.800 --> 00:03:13.080
<v Speaker 3>biggest moments. I don't want to act like it was

62
00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:16.039
<v Speaker 3>all quarterback play, but I mean we've been really really

63
00:03:16.039 --> 00:03:18.759
<v Speaker 3>spoiled at quarterback. We had that conversation a couple of

64
00:03:18.759 --> 00:03:21.560
<v Speaker 3>weeks ago, just as far as guys that are, you know,

65
00:03:21.680 --> 00:03:25.000
<v Speaker 3>I mean, some of our worst quarterbacks really weren't that bad.

66
00:03:25.719 --> 00:03:27.759
<v Speaker 3>And when you think of some of the big moments

67
00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:31.360
<v Speaker 3>that Louisville football has had, quarterback play was usually a

68
00:03:31.360 --> 00:03:33.080
<v Speaker 3>big part of it. And this year was again like

69
00:03:33.080 --> 00:03:34.280
<v Speaker 3>it just felt like, man, are we going to end

70
00:03:34.360 --> 00:03:37.960
<v Speaker 3>up having a season that ends up being you know,

71
00:03:38.280 --> 00:03:40.159
<v Speaker 3>mid And it wasn't that. I think it was a

72
00:03:40.199 --> 00:03:42.759
<v Speaker 3>fine season, a good season. Honestly, it wasn't bad. I

73
00:03:42.800 --> 00:03:43.960
<v Speaker 3>just think we know it could have been a little

74
00:03:43.960 --> 00:03:45.960
<v Speaker 3>bit better. But it really felt like that at times

75
00:03:46.039 --> 00:03:48.159
<v Speaker 3>because we're thinking, Okay, we only get this guy one year.

76
00:03:48.439 --> 00:03:51.759
<v Speaker 3>He's twenty five years old. Let's really try to maximize

77
00:03:52.400 --> 00:03:54.639
<v Speaker 3>what we can do with this guy because he's special,

78
00:03:54.800 --> 00:03:58.039
<v Speaker 3>and you know, I think he's going to have an

79
00:03:58.039 --> 00:04:02.439
<v Speaker 3>early opportunity because I mean, I don't know enough about

80
00:04:02.639 --> 00:04:06.759
<v Speaker 3>the hierarchy of the Saints organization meeting do they let

81
00:04:06.840 --> 00:04:09.599
<v Speaker 3>a coach have influence on who they want to pick?

82
00:04:09.599 --> 00:04:11.919
<v Speaker 3>But if you hire Kellen Moore as your new head

83
00:04:11.960 --> 00:04:14.199
<v Speaker 3>coach and this is his first season, I mean I

84
00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:17.439
<v Speaker 3>have a hard time thinking that he wasn't somebody advocating

85
00:04:17.480 --> 00:04:20.319
<v Speaker 3>for them to go ahead and take Tyler Schuck. He

86
00:04:20.360 --> 00:04:23.000
<v Speaker 3>wants a quarterback to work with and he probably no

87
00:04:23.079 --> 00:04:25.120
<v Speaker 3>offense to Derek Carr. But even if Derek Carr is healthy,

88
00:04:25.560 --> 00:04:27.199
<v Speaker 3>he's not at this I don't think Carr at this

89
00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:29.959
<v Speaker 3>point in his career as a guy that you know,

90
00:04:31.120 --> 00:04:33.240
<v Speaker 3>if there's a new head coach coming in, like Kellen Moore,

91
00:04:33.680 --> 00:04:35.839
<v Speaker 3>I mean, he's gonna want his own guy, because if

92
00:04:35.879 --> 00:04:39.319
<v Speaker 3>Derek Carr's poor play his struggles if of course, you

93
00:04:39.360 --> 00:04:40.879
<v Speaker 3>know that was to play out.

94
00:04:40.759 --> 00:04:41.600
<v Speaker 2>Like, it's just the same thing.

95
00:04:41.639 --> 00:04:44.040
<v Speaker 3>If it's like if you're an athletic director at a school,

96
00:04:44.519 --> 00:04:46.360
<v Speaker 3>if you take over as an AD and you've already

97
00:04:46.399 --> 00:04:49.480
<v Speaker 3>got a coach or you've already got a football coach

98
00:04:49.519 --> 00:04:52.120
<v Speaker 3>that's really not succeeding, you're gonna want to get your

99
00:04:52.120 --> 00:04:53.759
<v Speaker 3>own guys so you can then you know, at least

100
00:04:53.759 --> 00:04:57.120
<v Speaker 3>have some say so. Because again, if you're viewed based

101
00:04:57.160 --> 00:04:59.319
<v Speaker 3>off of somebody you didn't hire, I mean.

102
00:04:59.360 --> 00:05:02.560
<v Speaker 2>That's that's rough. So if cars out there.

103
00:05:02.319 --> 00:05:04.720
<v Speaker 3>Playing injured or just you know, not being very good

104
00:05:04.720 --> 00:05:07.519
<v Speaker 3>like he's been in recent years, meaning you know he

105
00:05:07.560 --> 00:05:09.439
<v Speaker 3>hasn't been good in recent years, I mean I feel

106
00:05:09.480 --> 00:05:11.040
<v Speaker 3>like Kellen Moore is gonna think, Look, I'm not gonna

107
00:05:11.040 --> 00:05:13.639
<v Speaker 3>My livelihood's at stake here too. I'm not gonna I'm

108
00:05:13.639 --> 00:05:15.000
<v Speaker 3>not gonna go down with this guy. I want to

109
00:05:15.040 --> 00:05:17.279
<v Speaker 3>go down my own guy. So we'll see what happens.

110
00:05:17.319 --> 00:05:19.439
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, kind of a bummer to.

111
00:05:19.439 --> 00:05:20.480
<v Speaker 2>See Schuck.

112
00:05:21.879 --> 00:05:24.480
<v Speaker 3>Be not very not a very popular decision, according you know,

113
00:05:24.680 --> 00:05:26.759
<v Speaker 3>according to most of the Saints fans that were expressing

114
00:05:26.800 --> 00:05:29.680
<v Speaker 3>their opinion on Friday evening. We didn't talk a whole

115
00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:32.639
<v Speaker 3>lot about the others. But Ashton Jalotti also taken on

116
00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:34.720
<v Speaker 3>Friday night. Good situation for him. I mean, he's going

117
00:05:34.759 --> 00:05:37.279
<v Speaker 3>to a really, really good organization that of course has

118
00:05:37.319 --> 00:05:40.680
<v Speaker 3>been insanely successful. I mean, I don't think it's a

119
00:05:40.720 --> 00:05:43.800
<v Speaker 3>stretch to say they've absolutely been a dynasty. They felt

120
00:05:43.839 --> 00:05:45.439
<v Speaker 3>short in the Super Bowl this year to the Eagles,

121
00:05:45.439 --> 00:05:48.000
<v Speaker 3>but clearly this this Chiefs team, I don't see it.

122
00:05:48.160 --> 00:05:50.160
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I'd be highly shocked if they're not really

123
00:05:50.199 --> 00:05:54.040
<v Speaker 3>really good for years to come. And you know, I

124
00:05:54.079 --> 00:05:56.279
<v Speaker 3>don't know about the depth chart in Kansas City, but

125
00:05:56.439 --> 00:05:59.680
<v Speaker 3>I know Ashton's a talented guy that you know, wouldn't

126
00:05:59.680 --> 00:06:01.839
<v Speaker 3>be shocked if he gets some early reps and makes

127
00:06:01.839 --> 00:06:05.839
<v Speaker 3>an impact, and then also Quincy Riley reunited with with

128
00:06:06.600 --> 00:06:07.360
<v Speaker 3>Tyler Shuck.

129
00:06:07.160 --> 00:06:07.680
<v Speaker 2>In New Orleans.

130
00:06:07.720 --> 00:06:12.360
<v Speaker 3>He was taken on Saturday, early afternoon. So those were

131
00:06:12.399 --> 00:06:14.199
<v Speaker 3>the three level players that were taken. I don't think

132
00:06:14.199 --> 00:06:14.839
<v Speaker 3>there was a fourth.

133
00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:15.240
<v Speaker 2>Was there.

134
00:06:15.600 --> 00:06:18.120
<v Speaker 3>A lot of guys ended up signing free agent deals,

135
00:06:18.480 --> 00:06:20.560
<v Speaker 3>but one guy that has yet to sign with an

136
00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:23.879
<v Speaker 3>NFL team unless he has done so since the show started.

137
00:06:23.879 --> 00:06:26.920
<v Speaker 3>And I don't really mean to me, there's got to

138
00:06:26.959 --> 00:06:30.480
<v Speaker 3>be something to this, but maybe maybe not. But the

139
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:34.199
<v Speaker 3>fact that ja Cory Brooks didn't get drafted and then

140
00:06:34.399 --> 00:06:37.199
<v Speaker 3>didn't sign an undrafted free agent deal and then didn't

141
00:06:37.240 --> 00:06:41.399
<v Speaker 3>even get a rookie mini camp invite again, what do

142
00:06:41.439 --> 00:06:44.199
<v Speaker 3>I know. I'm not somebody that's qualified to evaluate NFL

143
00:06:44.240 --> 00:06:47.240
<v Speaker 3>talent for NFL teams, but I don't. I don't get that.

144
00:06:47.519 --> 00:06:51.480
<v Speaker 3>I really don't. I mean, maybe he doesn't have like

145
00:06:51.759 --> 00:06:54.399
<v Speaker 3>the upside to be an elite receiver at the NFL.

146
00:06:54.439 --> 00:06:56.959
<v Speaker 3>Clearly the NFL didn't see it that way, But you've

147
00:06:56.959 --> 00:07:00.079
<v Speaker 3>got guys that you know, I mean.

148
00:07:00.319 --> 00:07:01.519
<v Speaker 2>Let's just put it in perspective here.

149
00:07:01.959 --> 00:07:04.120
<v Speaker 3>Mark Redman, the tight end who was a reserve last

150
00:07:04.199 --> 00:07:05.879
<v Speaker 3>year for Louisville, did not have a huge role.

151
00:07:05.759 --> 00:07:06.319
<v Speaker 2>On the offense.

152
00:07:06.360 --> 00:07:11.079
<v Speaker 3>I mean, he has signed with the with the Rams,

153
00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:14.519
<v Speaker 3>full back Dwayne Martin. He got a rookie mini camp

154
00:07:14.560 --> 00:07:18.519
<v Speaker 3>invite from the Seahawks. There's some other guys too that

155
00:07:19.040 --> 00:07:23.839
<v Speaker 3>have signed. Quarterback Corey Thornton's signed with the Panthers. So again,

156
00:07:25.199 --> 00:07:27.279
<v Speaker 3>je Cory Brooks, I just I mean, he did not

157
00:07:27.439 --> 00:07:30.240
<v Speaker 3>end up having a whole lot of buzz. In fact,

158
00:07:30.639 --> 00:07:33.040
<v Speaker 3>anything you read about him leading up to the draft,

159
00:07:33.759 --> 00:07:36.439
<v Speaker 3>you know you'd see people highlight the fact that in

160
00:07:36.480 --> 00:07:38.399
<v Speaker 3>the NFL he's going to be a pretty easy guy

161
00:07:38.519 --> 00:07:41.199
<v Speaker 3>to guard, just based off some things that he lacks

162
00:07:41.240 --> 00:07:43.839
<v Speaker 3>that are really needed to be an exceptional receiver. But

163
00:07:43.920 --> 00:07:47.600
<v Speaker 3>he's not even getting like an opportunity. And I mean

164
00:07:47.639 --> 00:07:49.800
<v Speaker 3>he got an did he get an invite to the combine?

165
00:07:50.160 --> 00:07:52.720
<v Speaker 3>I feel like he did, And I don't remember hearing

166
00:07:52.759 --> 00:07:56.319
<v Speaker 3>that like he had a bad showing, But you know,

167
00:07:56.920 --> 00:08:00.560
<v Speaker 3>I have no insight at all. But for him, again cold,

168
00:08:00.560 --> 00:08:05.720
<v Speaker 3>there's guys who rarely record any stats in college that

169
00:08:05.800 --> 00:08:08.800
<v Speaker 3>at least get a sniff, not even based off of

170
00:08:08.839 --> 00:08:10.560
<v Speaker 3>like potential, because if you had a lot of potential,

171
00:08:10.600 --> 00:08:11.839
<v Speaker 3>then you probably would have been drafted.

172
00:08:12.160 --> 00:08:14.319
<v Speaker 2>But like his production. This guy.

173
00:08:14.399 --> 00:08:17.720
<v Speaker 3>He led Alabama in receiving touchdowns when Bryce Young was

174
00:08:17.839 --> 00:08:21.199
<v Speaker 3>a senior r at Louisville. Although it's a step back

175
00:08:21.839 --> 00:08:26.079
<v Speaker 3>that from Alabama. He was sensational this last year. So

176
00:08:26.600 --> 00:08:28.439
<v Speaker 3>part of me says that there's something we don't know

177
00:08:29.000 --> 00:08:31.920
<v Speaker 3>that it's keeping NFL teams from giving this guy an opportunity.

178
00:08:31.959 --> 00:08:35.080
<v Speaker 3>Maybe that's not fair for me to say, but he

179
00:08:35.120 --> 00:08:39.000
<v Speaker 3>was too good in college, playing at a really high

180
00:08:39.120 --> 00:08:41.759
<v Speaker 3>level for the majority of his career, and I thought

181
00:08:41.919 --> 00:08:44.559
<v Speaker 3>the Louisville season here was kind of a confirmation that, yeah,

182
00:08:44.759 --> 00:08:46.960
<v Speaker 3>he got hurt, lost his spot at Alabama, because you

183
00:08:47.000 --> 00:08:49.559
<v Speaker 3>know that happens when you're at Alabama, you get hurt.

184
00:08:50.559 --> 00:08:53.320
<v Speaker 3>There's guys waiting in line that picked Alabama over every

185
00:08:53.360 --> 00:08:55.399
<v Speaker 3>school in the country that if they get some reps

186
00:08:55.399 --> 00:08:57.480
<v Speaker 3>and they get in rhythm, they're not coming out until

187
00:08:57.480 --> 00:08:58.679
<v Speaker 3>they get hurt, you know what I mean. Like, that's

188
00:08:58.679 --> 00:09:00.600
<v Speaker 3>just how it works at Bama. I thought him coming

189
00:09:00.600 --> 00:09:02.840
<v Speaker 3>to Louisville and really performing at a high level would

190
00:09:02.879 --> 00:09:04.519
<v Speaker 3>make it to where he had a chance to get drafted.

191
00:09:04.559 --> 00:09:06.639
<v Speaker 3>But he didn't get drafted and as of right now,

192
00:09:06.639 --> 00:09:09.519
<v Speaker 3>has yet to sign with a team. In any way,

193
00:09:09.799 --> 00:09:13.120
<v Speaker 3>could be his agent maybe realizing, hey, we're better than this.

194
00:09:13.159 --> 00:09:15.879
<v Speaker 3>We're not taking a rookie camp invite. We're gonna we

195
00:09:15.919 --> 00:09:18.759
<v Speaker 3>want an undrafted free agent deal, and we know our worth.

196
00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:20.679
<v Speaker 3>But at this point, I would say, as we sit

197
00:09:20.720 --> 00:09:24.039
<v Speaker 3>here on Monday afternoon, Slash, you know, I guess it's

198
00:09:24.080 --> 00:09:27.039
<v Speaker 3>not evening yet, but like I feel like if you

199
00:09:27.039 --> 00:09:31.399
<v Speaker 3>don't take an opportunity to, you know, take anything that

200
00:09:31.440 --> 00:09:33.240
<v Speaker 3>comes your way, I don't know what other opportunity is

201
00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:37.279
<v Speaker 3>going to get there. Or we'll talk a little more

202
00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:42.080
<v Speaker 3>about the NFL Draft coming up here actually before too long,

203
00:09:42.240 --> 00:09:44.799
<v Speaker 3>because I do want to let you guys hear from

204
00:09:45.039 --> 00:09:48.039
<v Speaker 3>different folks that cover the NFL some voices you'll recognize

205
00:09:48.039 --> 00:09:51.279
<v Speaker 3>that after Saturday, I'm sorry, after Friday night, you could

206
00:09:51.320 --> 00:09:54.519
<v Speaker 3>tell they started to get information that they didn't have

207
00:09:55.039 --> 00:09:58.000
<v Speaker 3>directly from their source before the first two days of

208
00:09:58.000 --> 00:10:01.360
<v Speaker 3>the draft about shad Or Sanders. And to me, hearing

209
00:10:02.279 --> 00:10:06.360
<v Speaker 3>the way should Or and his father handled the entire

210
00:10:07.240 --> 00:10:10.080
<v Speaker 3>pre draft prep didn't surprise.

211
00:10:09.759 --> 00:10:12.519
<v Speaker 2>Me in any way. And hearing how the NFL.

212
00:10:12.320 --> 00:10:17.360
<v Speaker 3>Decided to collectively respond to it and handle it that

213
00:10:17.480 --> 00:10:21.600
<v Speaker 3>also didn't surprise me in any way. And again it

214
00:10:21.639 --> 00:10:23.279
<v Speaker 3>really stood out to me that I didn't really hear

215
00:10:23.320 --> 00:10:26.679
<v Speaker 3>a whole lot of other people acknowledging. And maybe it's

216
00:10:26.679 --> 00:10:28.519
<v Speaker 3>because it's a rather obvious thing that doesn't need to

217
00:10:28.519 --> 00:10:32.559
<v Speaker 3>be said out loud. But imagine thinking the NFL needs you.

218
00:10:34.559 --> 00:10:37.120
<v Speaker 3>I mean, even if you are a once in a

219
00:10:37.159 --> 00:10:41.720
<v Speaker 3>lifetime talent, which Shudor Sanders is not, the NFL doesn't

220
00:10:41.759 --> 00:10:44.639
<v Speaker 3>need you. You don't control anything. You're an employee.

221
00:10:44.759 --> 00:10:45.519
<v Speaker 2>They own me.

222
00:10:45.639 --> 00:10:48.879
<v Speaker 3>Like he quite literally handled it in a way that

223
00:10:49.799 --> 00:10:52.480
<v Speaker 3>even if you've got the third pick or whatever it is,

224
00:10:52.799 --> 00:10:54.639
<v Speaker 3>you got to sell me because I'm not coming to

225
00:10:54.679 --> 00:10:57.000
<v Speaker 3>you if you pick me, because I just need to

226
00:10:57.039 --> 00:11:00.519
<v Speaker 3>hear what your plan is for me and why why

227
00:11:00.559 --> 00:11:03.200
<v Speaker 3>I should take the job, And like that's not what

228
00:11:03.279 --> 00:11:06.240
<v Speaker 3>the NFL is, and it's pretty obvious. But again, like

229
00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:09.399
<v Speaker 3>I don't I'm not calling Deon Sanders a bad dad

230
00:11:09.440 --> 00:11:12.360
<v Speaker 3>because that would be unfair, but I don't think the

231
00:11:12.399 --> 00:11:18.120
<v Speaker 3>way that his dad handled the hype stuff helped his

232
00:11:18.200 --> 00:11:18.919
<v Speaker 3>son in any way.

233
00:11:20.799 --> 00:11:23.840
<v Speaker 2>Because what I feel like would.

234
00:11:23.600 --> 00:11:26.799
<v Speaker 3>Be a no brainer if you're Dion, would be like,

235
00:11:26.879 --> 00:11:28.679
<v Speaker 3>make sure that your kid feels.

236
00:11:28.399 --> 00:11:31.360
<v Speaker 2>Confident in his ability and he's you know, and.

237
00:11:31.279 --> 00:11:32.600
<v Speaker 3>I don't think you'd ever have to worry about that,

238
00:11:32.679 --> 00:11:35.120
<v Speaker 3>to be honest with you, But like, wouldn't it be

239
00:11:35.120 --> 00:11:38.000
<v Speaker 3>a rather obvious thing? And you know, a good piece

240
00:11:38.039 --> 00:11:43.000
<v Speaker 3>of advice for Deon Sanders to like let his kids

241
00:11:43.080 --> 00:11:47.639
<v Speaker 3>know that Dad meaning prime, like he went out there

242
00:11:47.720 --> 00:11:52.200
<v Speaker 3>and became this larger than life figure that could talk

243
00:11:52.279 --> 00:11:55.840
<v Speaker 3>the talk and carry himself the way he carried himself because.

244
00:11:55.480 --> 00:11:56.480
<v Speaker 4>He was a bad man.

245
00:11:57.039 --> 00:12:00.440
<v Speaker 3>Deon Sanders is one of the most talented athletic athletes

246
00:12:00.440 --> 00:12:02.840
<v Speaker 3>of all time. I mean, he wasn't just a phenomenal

247
00:12:02.840 --> 00:12:06.480
<v Speaker 3>football player. He also played professional baseball and oh by

248
00:12:06.480 --> 00:12:08.320
<v Speaker 3>the way, he didn't just make the roster, he was

249
00:12:08.320 --> 00:12:09.039
<v Speaker 3>good at that too.

250
00:12:10.720 --> 00:12:11.200
<v Speaker 2>I feel like.

251
00:12:11.159 --> 00:12:13.480
<v Speaker 3>Dion would want to make his kids know that, like,

252
00:12:13.759 --> 00:12:17.200
<v Speaker 3>I didn't just start yapping and become an all time great.

253
00:12:17.399 --> 00:12:19.240
<v Speaker 2>I went out there and I earned it. I proved it.

254
00:12:19.879 --> 00:12:22.120
<v Speaker 3>His kids haven't done that, and yet they carry themselves

255
00:12:22.200 --> 00:12:25.279
<v Speaker 3>like they have their dad's resume, and like, I don't know.

256
00:12:25.480 --> 00:12:32.120
<v Speaker 3>I mean, that's that's the Sanders family fault. And if

257
00:12:32.120 --> 00:12:35.600
<v Speaker 3>it's truly based off like upside potential, yes, it sounds

258
00:12:35.600 --> 00:12:37.360
<v Speaker 3>like he does have that. There's a lot to work

259
00:12:37.360 --> 00:12:39.840
<v Speaker 3>with there, because you know, he's pretty gifted with his jeens, right,

260
00:12:39.879 --> 00:12:45.279
<v Speaker 3>he's Deon Sanders' son. But it doesn't appear that the

261
00:12:45.360 --> 00:12:48.679
<v Speaker 3>NFL felt like it was worth getting into that in

262
00:12:48.720 --> 00:12:51.000
<v Speaker 3>any way because in order for him to you know,

263
00:12:51.120 --> 00:12:56.320
<v Speaker 3>truly develop and really be a franchise quarterback that handles

264
00:12:56.320 --> 00:12:58.440
<v Speaker 3>things the right way, that that can command the locker

265
00:12:58.519 --> 00:13:01.600
<v Speaker 3>room and be the face of a franchise, there were

266
00:13:02.159 --> 00:13:07.399
<v Speaker 3>seemingly endless red flags that that basically said, you know,

267
00:13:07.960 --> 00:13:10.279
<v Speaker 3>it's gonna be tough for him to ever be the

268
00:13:10.320 --> 00:13:12.279
<v Speaker 3>guy we need him to be because of all the

269
00:13:12.279 --> 00:13:18.000
<v Speaker 3>baggage essentially. So again, we'll get into that coming up

270
00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:19.320
<v Speaker 3>a little bit later on because I want you guys

271
00:13:19.360 --> 00:13:21.360
<v Speaker 3>to hear some of the some of the sound from that.

272
00:13:21.519 --> 00:13:25.320
<v Speaker 3>But let's talk about the the prank phone calls on

273
00:13:25.320 --> 00:13:29.679
<v Speaker 3>on I guess both Friday and Saturday. It wasn't just

274
00:13:29.720 --> 00:13:32.600
<v Speaker 3>should or Sanders they got a prank call, but there's

275
00:13:32.639 --> 00:13:35.120
<v Speaker 3>also I think it was the Colts tight end they

276
00:13:35.200 --> 00:13:38.600
<v Speaker 3>drafted in the first round, Tyler Warren, Bill's offensive tackle

277
00:13:38.720 --> 00:13:43.080
<v Speaker 3>they selected Chase Lunt, they also received prank phone calls.

278
00:13:43.759 --> 00:13:46.399
<v Speaker 3>And you know, as much as I've made it pretty clear.

279
00:13:46.440 --> 00:13:49.080
<v Speaker 3>I'm not, you know, real sympathetic for Shad Or Sanders

280
00:13:49.240 --> 00:13:50.360
<v Speaker 3>fall into the fifth round.

281
00:13:51.039 --> 00:13:51.759
<v Speaker 2>I don't like.

282
00:13:51.919 --> 00:13:54.399
<v Speaker 3>I guess it's when you prank call somebody. I mean,

283
00:13:54.559 --> 00:13:57.480
<v Speaker 3>technically by definition, I guess you know that's a prank.

284
00:13:58.399 --> 00:14:01.279
<v Speaker 3>But that's like, that's such a cruel thing to do.

285
00:14:02.480 --> 00:14:06.639
<v Speaker 3>And I mean, I'm just trying to envision the lead

286
00:14:06.720 --> 00:14:08.320
<v Speaker 3>up to this because we now know who did it, which,

287
00:14:08.360 --> 00:14:10.000
<v Speaker 3>by the way, this is kind of low key in

288
00:14:10.080 --> 00:14:12.480
<v Speaker 3>all time NFL story I think, I mean, just say

289
00:14:12.480 --> 00:14:17.519
<v Speaker 3>it out loud. The young college son of an NFL

290
00:14:17.600 --> 00:14:23.519
<v Speaker 3>defensive coordinator happened to obtain the list of numbers the

291
00:14:23.679 --> 00:14:26.679
<v Speaker 3>NFL is given before the draft so they can call

292
00:14:27.080 --> 00:14:29.559
<v Speaker 3>and let a player know that they're drafting them. And

293
00:14:29.600 --> 00:14:32.480
<v Speaker 3>they decided to call shit Or Sanders, the most highly

294
00:14:32.519 --> 00:14:35.639
<v Speaker 3>talked about publicized player in the draft, and prank him

295
00:14:35.679 --> 00:14:38.840
<v Speaker 3>as if he was about to be drafted. Like that's

296
00:14:38.879 --> 00:14:42.200
<v Speaker 3>something from a movie. But that's that's literally what happened.

297
00:14:42.320 --> 00:14:45.679
<v Speaker 5>I feel like you also said last week we haven't

298
00:14:45.720 --> 00:14:47.480
<v Speaker 5>had like a Laromie Tunsil moment.

299
00:14:47.879 --> 00:14:48.519
<v Speaker 2>Well this is it.

300
00:14:48.679 --> 00:14:50.919
<v Speaker 3>Yes, it didn't play out on television. It was strictly

301
00:14:50.960 --> 00:14:53.639
<v Speaker 3>an internet thing that really just took off. But I'm

302
00:14:53.639 --> 00:14:55.600
<v Speaker 3>not surprised he took off like that because again, like

303
00:14:55.639 --> 00:15:00.879
<v Speaker 3>these are things that you know, I mean, I to me,

304
00:15:01.480 --> 00:15:04.200
<v Speaker 3>I hope I'm using the word correct, Like this is cruel,

305
00:15:04.320 --> 00:15:07.879
<v Speaker 3>this is like this is I mean, I think mean

306
00:15:07.960 --> 00:15:10.000
<v Speaker 3>is an obvious word to use, but it's it's further

307
00:15:10.039 --> 00:15:10.440
<v Speaker 3>than mean.

308
00:15:10.960 --> 00:15:13.559
<v Speaker 5>Well I did I didn't know until you said it

309
00:15:13.600 --> 00:15:15.639
<v Speaker 5>that they found out it was you said, a defensive

310
00:15:15.639 --> 00:15:17.480
<v Speaker 5>coordinator son of an NFL You.

311
00:15:17.399 --> 00:15:17.919
<v Speaker 2>Didn't know that.

312
00:15:18.039 --> 00:15:19.919
<v Speaker 4>No, No, I haven't missed that man.

313
00:15:20.240 --> 00:15:22.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so Jack's Olbrooke.

314
00:15:23.039 --> 00:15:25.799
<v Speaker 3>Uh he is the son what twenty one year old

315
00:15:25.879 --> 00:15:31.440
<v Speaker 3>son of Falcons defensive coordinator Jeff Olbrooke. And it's muddy

316
00:15:31.639 --> 00:15:34.120
<v Speaker 3>somebody was able to again, like with the internet now

317
00:15:34.600 --> 00:15:38.480
<v Speaker 3>and social media, I mean, you're gonna you're you're going.

318
00:15:38.279 --> 00:15:39.559
<v Speaker 4>To you're gonna get tracked.

319
00:15:39.639 --> 00:15:41.879
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and that's what happened because the kids video and

320
00:15:41.919 --> 00:15:46.200
<v Speaker 3>themselves doing it. By the way, I mean, I don't

321
00:15:46.240 --> 00:15:51.200
<v Speaker 3>think it was surely the kid in the video wasn't

322
00:15:51.200 --> 00:15:56.039
<v Speaker 3>the son. So the the kid who got the number,

323
00:15:56.080 --> 00:15:59.039
<v Speaker 3>he's not dumb enough to go on video and.

324
00:15:58.960 --> 00:16:01.720
<v Speaker 2>Do it, because like his dad would choke.

325
00:16:01.600 --> 00:16:03.480
<v Speaker 3>Him to death before he could hang up the phone,

326
00:16:03.840 --> 00:16:07.080
<v Speaker 3>because like I mean, people even in people in the

327
00:16:07.159 --> 00:16:09.919
<v Speaker 3>NFL would know, Hey, that's that's probably you know, So

328
00:16:10.000 --> 00:16:12.080
<v Speaker 3>he probably got the number gave it to buddies. I

329
00:16:12.080 --> 00:16:14.240
<v Speaker 3>think that's how they tracked it, is that the kids

330
00:16:14.240 --> 00:16:15.720
<v Speaker 3>that did it, they were able to you know, they

331
00:16:15.759 --> 00:16:17.960
<v Speaker 3>could they I guess, were able to track down who

332
00:16:17.960 --> 00:16:21.000
<v Speaker 3>they were and they realized there was a connection to

333
00:16:21.120 --> 00:16:23.279
<v Speaker 3>Jack's Olbrook, who again is the son of the Falcons

334
00:16:23.320 --> 00:16:24.120
<v Speaker 3>of the Falcons.

335
00:16:23.840 --> 00:16:26.000
<v Speaker 4>Divins video around it.

336
00:16:26.120 --> 00:16:29.440
<v Speaker 3>I would assume not because he can't be that dumb, right, Like,

337
00:16:29.519 --> 00:16:30.759
<v Speaker 3>he can't be that dumb.

338
00:16:31.519 --> 00:16:33.120
<v Speaker 4>So I thought it was a guy that was calling

339
00:16:33.200 --> 00:16:34.000
<v Speaker 4>him and acting like.

340
00:16:34.080 --> 00:16:35.960
<v Speaker 3>So again like I could be wrong here because I don't.

341
00:16:35.960 --> 00:16:37.919
<v Speaker 3>I wouldn't, you know, I wouldn't know him if he

342
00:16:37.960 --> 00:16:40.919
<v Speaker 3>walked in here. But I feel like it wouldn't have

343
00:16:40.960 --> 00:16:44.200
<v Speaker 3>taken that long for us to determine. And I say

344
00:16:44.279 --> 00:16:46.600
<v Speaker 3>us like I did it. But it came out Sunday

345
00:16:46.720 --> 00:16:49.480
<v Speaker 3>that that that it was that it was the Falcon's

346
00:16:50.039 --> 00:16:53.399
<v Speaker 3>defensive coordinator's son that leaked the number. It can't be

347
00:16:53.519 --> 00:16:55.519
<v Speaker 3>him in the video because you can't be that dumb

348
00:16:56.080 --> 00:16:59.279
<v Speaker 3>like you could you should get this. I mean, if

349
00:16:59.320 --> 00:17:04.640
<v Speaker 3>you are this guy's dad, meaning Jeff Ulbrick, like, I don't,

350
00:17:04.680 --> 00:17:08.359
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I would be so disappointed and embarrassed. Yeah,

351
00:17:08.400 --> 00:17:11.960
<v Speaker 3>I mean, that's some real shameful stuff that there's clearly

352
00:17:12.000 --> 00:17:14.920
<v Speaker 3>no excuse for. And a lot of times people do

353
00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:18.839
<v Speaker 3>dumb stuff that brings embarrassment that you know, they realized

354
00:17:18.880 --> 00:17:20.799
<v Speaker 3>there was a really stupid mistake and they shouldn't have

355
00:17:20.799 --> 00:17:23.319
<v Speaker 3>done it, and even though it's wrong, you can at

356
00:17:23.400 --> 00:17:25.400
<v Speaker 3>least understand that they Okay, they thought they'd get a

357
00:17:25.440 --> 00:17:27.720
<v Speaker 3>good laugh. They thought this would I don't know, I

358
00:17:27.759 --> 00:17:29.680
<v Speaker 3>don't know, you know, I'm sure you'll find people on

359
00:17:29.720 --> 00:17:32.039
<v Speaker 3>the internet that will really hype this up as, oh,

360
00:17:32.119 --> 00:17:34.319
<v Speaker 3>this was a great joke. But I feel like most people,

361
00:17:34.440 --> 00:17:37.519
<v Speaker 3>even people that you know aren't necessarily good people who

362
00:17:37.519 --> 00:17:40.599
<v Speaker 3>care about others, would acknowledge that's just that's just kind

363
00:17:40.599 --> 00:17:42.839
<v Speaker 3>of crossing the line as far as being like cruel,

364
00:17:43.480 --> 00:17:48.559
<v Speaker 3>like that's it's it's mean beyond being mean, And there's

365
00:17:48.559 --> 00:17:50.759
<v Speaker 3>been some type of like I think it was Ian

366
00:17:50.839 --> 00:17:52.640
<v Speaker 3>Rappaport who put it out that the NFL and the

367
00:17:52.680 --> 00:17:56.079
<v Speaker 3>Falcons are not seeking any kind of like punishment or

368
00:17:56.119 --> 00:18:00.480
<v Speaker 3>whatever for for the DC with the falcons, which you

369
00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:03.799
<v Speaker 3>know he didn't do it, but like he also somehow

370
00:18:04.039 --> 00:18:09.079
<v Speaker 3>let that information get compromised, and I don't think him

371
00:18:09.079 --> 00:18:11.279
<v Speaker 3>being fired would have been a big surprise. Now, again,

372
00:18:12.119 --> 00:18:14.519
<v Speaker 3>he didn't do it, and I'm sure he's I mean,

373
00:18:14.680 --> 00:18:17.559
<v Speaker 3>I can't imagine there's a scenario where he doesn't. He's

374
00:18:17.559 --> 00:18:20.119
<v Speaker 3>probably more upset than anybody about it because it's just,

375
00:18:20.200 --> 00:18:22.680
<v Speaker 3>you know, it's connected to him. Like, there's nothing worse

376
00:18:22.720 --> 00:18:26.960
<v Speaker 3>than disappointing your parents. I think the fear of letting

377
00:18:26.960 --> 00:18:29.079
<v Speaker 3>your parents down is a comfortable thing that you should

378
00:18:29.079 --> 00:18:31.400
<v Speaker 3>like always have. At least that's the way I see it,

379
00:18:31.440 --> 00:18:33.880
<v Speaker 3>because you know, I want to make my parents proud

380
00:18:33.920 --> 00:18:36.240
<v Speaker 3>as a as a man, as a father, that kind

381
00:18:36.279 --> 00:18:38.240
<v Speaker 3>of stuff, and that's one of the things that like

382
00:18:38.359 --> 00:18:40.920
<v Speaker 3>keeps me, you know, trying to be you know, be

383
00:18:40.960 --> 00:18:43.400
<v Speaker 3>a good dude, be a good dad, that kind of stuff. So,

384
00:18:44.240 --> 00:18:46.599
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I don't know what kind of pun I mean,

385
00:18:46.599 --> 00:18:48.319
<v Speaker 3>he's an adult. I don't know how you punish him.

386
00:18:48.680 --> 00:18:50.880
<v Speaker 3>But what I love is that it's turned into like

387
00:18:51.720 --> 00:18:54.960
<v Speaker 3>people throwing out like there's really no like I think

388
00:18:54.960 --> 00:18:56.680
<v Speaker 3>I might have been stephen A Smith that said if

389
00:18:57.240 --> 00:19:00.200
<v Speaker 3>if he was stephen A who said that, if you know,

390
00:19:00.279 --> 00:19:02.960
<v Speaker 3>despite him being twenty years old, I think.

391
00:19:02.799 --> 00:19:06.079
<v Speaker 2>He is like his dad should whip his ass.

392
00:19:07.440 --> 00:19:10.240
<v Speaker 3>And I'm thinking, well, you know, I guess technically he

393
00:19:10.279 --> 00:19:13.759
<v Speaker 3>could do that, and like, you know, like he's a

394
00:19:13.799 --> 00:19:15.799
<v Speaker 3>grown up. I'm sure he would probably try to fight

395
00:19:15.839 --> 00:19:16.319
<v Speaker 3>back and not.

396
00:19:16.240 --> 00:19:16.880
<v Speaker 2>Get beat up.

397
00:19:16.960 --> 00:19:20.400
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, that was just that was just embarrassing. It

398
00:19:20.440 --> 00:19:24.519
<v Speaker 3>made me realize that whenever we were kids and we

399
00:19:24.519 --> 00:19:27.880
<v Speaker 3>would occasionally prank call people, like, we never did anything

400
00:19:28.079 --> 00:19:32.119
<v Speaker 3>like to this level. We were just you know, having fun, like, hey,

401
00:19:32.200 --> 00:19:33.359
<v Speaker 3>is your refrigerator running?

402
00:19:33.480 --> 00:19:36.000
<v Speaker 2>Better go get it? Like I'm sure we didn't.

403
00:19:35.799 --> 00:19:37.200
<v Speaker 3>Say that, but you know, actually I can tell you

404
00:19:37.200 --> 00:19:38.759
<v Speaker 3>a good story about a prank call we did whenever

405
00:19:38.799 --> 00:19:41.440
<v Speaker 3>I was in high school. We were freshmen at the time,

406
00:19:42.240 --> 00:19:44.759
<v Speaker 3>and we called we called one of my and my

407
00:19:44.799 --> 00:19:46.839
<v Speaker 3>buddy was We called my buddy's dad and he was

408
00:19:46.880 --> 00:19:49.279
<v Speaker 3>there with us and he was like yeah, like he

409
00:19:49.359 --> 00:19:51.720
<v Speaker 3>was cool with it. We thought that it would be

410
00:19:51.960 --> 00:19:53.759
<v Speaker 3>he'd be a good candidate, that would give us a

411
00:19:53.759 --> 00:19:56.440
<v Speaker 3>good laugh. Him not realizing it's a prank call, kind

412
00:19:56.440 --> 00:20:00.119
<v Speaker 3>of getting his reaction. So we called him at This

413
00:20:00.160 --> 00:20:02.359
<v Speaker 3>is at the time when like you didn't have Netflix,

414
00:20:02.519 --> 00:20:05.160
<v Speaker 3>you didn't have anything like that. You didn't even have

415
00:20:05.200 --> 00:20:07.319
<v Speaker 3>red Box. You had to go rent movies right at

416
00:20:07.359 --> 00:20:10.279
<v Speaker 3>like Blockbuster. And there was a local video store in

417
00:20:10.319 --> 00:20:13.359
<v Speaker 3>our area. I think it was called Video Vault, and

418
00:20:13.680 --> 00:20:15.920
<v Speaker 3>this place had the curtain Austin. You may be too

419
00:20:15.920 --> 00:20:18.359
<v Speaker 3>young to know about the curtain. Oh I know the

420
00:20:18.359 --> 00:20:20.839
<v Speaker 3>the curtain. So I just wanted to go back there.

421
00:20:20.839 --> 00:20:24.680
<v Speaker 3>So one are my buddies called uh called one of

422
00:20:24.680 --> 00:20:27.240
<v Speaker 3>our buddies dad and told him that he had like

423
00:20:27.279 --> 00:20:28.440
<v Speaker 3>a big late fee.

424
00:20:28.960 --> 00:20:32.119
<v Speaker 2>And that like he you know, they need their money.

425
00:20:32.160 --> 00:20:34.720
<v Speaker 3>And he mentioned, like he made up a bunch of

426
00:20:34.799 --> 00:20:40.079
<v Speaker 3>you know, very inappropriate titles for adult rated movies, and

427
00:20:40.160 --> 00:20:42.480
<v Speaker 3>you know, he mentioned that those were both like two

428
00:20:42.519 --> 00:20:46.759
<v Speaker 3>weeks late and the and instead of like disputing it,

429
00:20:47.240 --> 00:20:51.000
<v Speaker 3>like you got the wrong number or you know, who

430
00:20:51.039 --> 00:20:54.079
<v Speaker 3>the hell is this? You know this is you know,

431
00:20:54.160 --> 00:20:55.839
<v Speaker 3>could we call them at like midnight too, by the way,

432
00:20:55.960 --> 00:21:02.519
<v Speaker 3>on his house phone, but instead of any dial he says, nope, nope,

433
00:21:02.519 --> 00:21:06.039
<v Speaker 3>I took those back last week. And we just like

434
00:21:06.200 --> 00:21:09.839
<v Speaker 3>we we couldn't stop from laughing, so we just hung

435
00:21:09.920 --> 00:21:11.559
<v Speaker 3>up and that was it. But the best part of

436
00:21:11.599 --> 00:21:14.799
<v Speaker 3>it was that for years, all throughout high school, we

437
00:21:14.880 --> 00:21:18.119
<v Speaker 3>just assumed, like, damn, he really does like rent a

438
00:21:18.119 --> 00:21:21.480
<v Speaker 3>lot of dirty movies, and he thought like they thought

439
00:21:21.519 --> 00:21:23.440
<v Speaker 3>that he must have just thought that they didn't scan

440
00:21:23.559 --> 00:21:26.440
<v Speaker 3>him as returned yet wow. Like, so we go on

441
00:21:26.559 --> 00:21:29.200
<v Speaker 3>thinking like, this guy really loves to go behind the

442
00:21:29.200 --> 00:21:32.279
<v Speaker 3>curtain at our local video store. And when we graduate.

443
00:21:32.480 --> 00:21:36.400
<v Speaker 3>When we graduated, we all took pictures together outside of

444
00:21:36.440 --> 00:21:38.519
<v Speaker 3>our high school, you know, the cap and gown pictures,

445
00:21:39.039 --> 00:21:40.759
<v Speaker 3>and he came over, you know, around all of our

446
00:21:40.799 --> 00:21:43.119
<v Speaker 3>other parents, and he came up to the three of us,

447
00:21:43.440 --> 00:21:46.079
<v Speaker 3>and I don't remember what it was he said exactly.

448
00:21:47.119 --> 00:21:48.599
<v Speaker 3>He might have said one of the titles, and we

449
00:21:48.640 --> 00:21:50.880
<v Speaker 3>didn't even remember what we said. That what my buddy

450
00:21:50.920 --> 00:21:53.359
<v Speaker 3>said the title was like he just made up names

451
00:21:53.359 --> 00:21:56.000
<v Speaker 3>that he thought would be an adult porn movie, and

452
00:21:56.039 --> 00:21:58.839
<v Speaker 3>he remembered one of them and mentioned it to us

453
00:21:58.920 --> 00:22:00.799
<v Speaker 3>and then he laughed, and we were the whole time

454
00:22:00.839 --> 00:22:01.480
<v Speaker 3>he knew it was us.

455
00:22:01.480 --> 00:22:03.240
<v Speaker 2>They never said anything, isn't that good?

456
00:22:03.480 --> 00:22:03.960
<v Speaker 4>That's good?

457
00:22:04.119 --> 00:22:06.200
<v Speaker 2>Like we just you know, he was comfortable just.

458
00:22:06.119 --> 00:22:08.559
<v Speaker 3>Having us think that he's you know, out here, you know,

459
00:22:08.559 --> 00:22:10.000
<v Speaker 3>I guess there's something wrong with that, but like, I

460
00:22:10.000 --> 00:22:11.480
<v Speaker 3>don't know. I just thought that that So that that's

461
00:22:11.480 --> 00:22:13.480
<v Speaker 3>the level of prank phone call that we did.

462
00:22:13.599 --> 00:22:14.200
<v Speaker 4>That's a good one.

463
00:22:14.240 --> 00:22:16.839
<v Speaker 3>Whereas you know what what happened on the NFL Draft night,

464
00:22:16.920 --> 00:22:17.839
<v Speaker 3>Like that's a again.

465
00:22:17.880 --> 00:22:20.039
<v Speaker 2>I I'm I'm romantic about the draft.

466
00:22:20.079 --> 00:22:21.440
<v Speaker 3>I talked about it a lot on Thursday, Like, I

467
00:22:21.440 --> 00:22:22.960
<v Speaker 3>think it'd be one of the coolest moments ever to

468
00:22:23.000 --> 00:22:26.240
<v Speaker 3>find out that you're everything you worked for is coming

469
00:22:26.319 --> 00:22:28.279
<v Speaker 3>true and then for it to just be a gag

470
00:22:28.359 --> 00:22:31.960
<v Speaker 3>like that's it's beyond lame. All right, quick break, We're

471
00:22:32.000 --> 00:22:34.240
<v Speaker 3>about halfway through, so stick with us. This is coffee

<v Speaker 3>Also listen live at seven ninety Louisville dot com. So

481
00:23:13.559 --> 00:23:16.559
<v Speaker 3>the statement that came in from Jack's Ouelbrook, who is

482
00:23:16.680 --> 00:23:23.079
<v Speaker 3>the son of the Falcons dementsive coordinator. And again I tried,

483
00:23:23.359 --> 00:23:26.039
<v Speaker 3>I guess not hard enough, but I tried to get

484
00:23:26.039 --> 00:23:28.839
<v Speaker 3>to the bottom of it during the break to see

485
00:23:28.839 --> 00:23:31.480
<v Speaker 3>if he was the actual caller that is on video,

486
00:23:31.920 --> 00:23:34.079
<v Speaker 3>and I really don't. I don't know, but either way,

487
00:23:34.759 --> 00:23:37.440
<v Speaker 3>the Falcons, I mean, they've confirmed that it was in

488
00:23:37.440 --> 00:23:40.359
<v Speaker 3>fact the son of their DC who had the number

489
00:23:40.599 --> 00:23:42.839
<v Speaker 3>and either he called or got it to somebody because

490
00:23:42.839 --> 00:23:44.839
<v Speaker 3>he thought it would be funny. But this is the

491
00:23:44.920 --> 00:23:48.359
<v Speaker 3>statement from the young man here on Friday night. I

492
00:23:48.400 --> 00:23:51.039
<v Speaker 3>made a tremendous mistake sit or what I did was

493
00:23:51.039 --> 00:23:53.759
<v Speaker 3>completely an excusable, embarrassing, and shameful. I'm so sorry I

494
00:23:53.799 --> 00:23:56.559
<v Speaker 3>took away from your moment. It was selfish and childish.

495
00:23:56.759 --> 00:23:58.920
<v Speaker 3>I could never imagine getting ready to celebrate one of

496
00:23:58.920 --> 00:24:00.920
<v Speaker 3>the greatest moments of your life, and I made a

497
00:24:01.000 --> 00:24:03.880
<v Speaker 3>terrible mistake and messed with that moment. Thank you for

498
00:24:04.000 --> 00:24:06.640
<v Speaker 3>accepting my call earlier today. I hope you can find

499
00:24:06.640 --> 00:24:10.920
<v Speaker 3>it in your hearts to forgive me. So somebody took

500
00:24:10.960 --> 00:24:15.400
<v Speaker 3>that statement and did a little check for AI content

501
00:24:15.960 --> 00:24:22.000
<v Speaker 3>and it was an entirely AI generated message. So I'm

502
00:24:22.039 --> 00:24:25.160
<v Speaker 3>not going to defend this kid, who you know is

503
00:24:25.200 --> 00:24:29.079
<v Speaker 3>the worst, but he could have. And again, I don't

504
00:24:29.119 --> 00:24:31.079
<v Speaker 3>know about how you check for AI content as far

505
00:24:31.160 --> 00:24:33.519
<v Speaker 3>as like scanning something to see if because I'm sure

506
00:24:33.559 --> 00:24:37.240
<v Speaker 3>now like if you have to write like papers for class,

507
00:24:37.279 --> 00:24:41.039
<v Speaker 3>I mean, you could use AI and it would probably

508
00:24:41.079 --> 00:24:43.119
<v Speaker 3>be maybe better than your own work.

509
00:24:43.440 --> 00:24:44.680
<v Speaker 2>But there's got to be a way for people.

510
00:24:44.680 --> 00:24:46.119
<v Speaker 3>And I knew there was a I've known of a

511
00:24:46.119 --> 00:24:47.599
<v Speaker 3>way to where people can kind of check to see

512
00:24:47.640 --> 00:24:52.240
<v Speaker 3>if something came from an AI generated platform. But like

513
00:24:52.319 --> 00:24:55.000
<v Speaker 3>maybe he wrote it and then did it did an

514
00:24:55.039 --> 00:24:58.359
<v Speaker 3>AI like spell check or AI rewrite just to make

515
00:24:58.400 --> 00:25:02.519
<v Speaker 3>sure it's it's you know, sending the right message, right.

516
00:25:02.559 --> 00:25:06.799
<v Speaker 3>Maybe maybe AI helped him, you know, you know, more

517
00:25:06.839 --> 00:25:11.400
<v Speaker 3>carefully craft just how apologetic he was. But I also

518
00:25:11.440 --> 00:25:14.440
<v Speaker 3>think that just any use of AI at all is

519
00:25:14.480 --> 00:25:17.119
<v Speaker 3>going to make your apology not seem really sincere in

520
00:25:17.200 --> 00:25:20.039
<v Speaker 3>any way. But yeah, that was an ald timer, and

521
00:25:20.079 --> 00:25:22.160
<v Speaker 3>you're right, Austin, I said, there really hadn't been like

522
00:25:22.200 --> 00:25:26.519
<v Speaker 3>a crazy you can't make this sub story surrounding the

523
00:25:26.640 --> 00:25:29.799
<v Speaker 3>NFL draft, And you know, we got one, but it

524
00:25:29.839 --> 00:25:32.759
<v Speaker 3>probably won't be remembered like the grass Mask was with

525
00:25:32.799 --> 00:25:36.000
<v Speaker 3>the Laramie Tunsel, because no, probably not. This draft is

526
00:25:36.240 --> 00:25:40.799
<v Speaker 3>all about shit or Sanders, and you know, we knew

527
00:25:40.799 --> 00:25:43.079
<v Speaker 3>that going in, and the way it played out led

528
00:25:43.119 --> 00:25:45.039
<v Speaker 3>to it. Like had he been taken early in the

529
00:25:45.079 --> 00:25:47.960
<v Speaker 3>first round or maybe at some point anywhere in the

530
00:25:48.000 --> 00:25:51.960
<v Speaker 3>first round, He's not talked about really at all the

531
00:25:52.000 --> 00:25:54.319
<v Speaker 3>rest of the way, right, other than just acknowledging guys

532
00:25:54.319 --> 00:25:57.960
<v Speaker 3>that were taken. But because he didn't get taken Friday

533
00:25:58.880 --> 00:26:02.519
<v Speaker 3>and he had to wait until the fifth round on Saturday,

534
00:26:02.960 --> 00:26:06.200
<v Speaker 3>I mean, it just became the dominant conversation. And I

535
00:26:07.039 --> 00:26:13.480
<v Speaker 3>just I kept getting so annoyed by everybody acting.

536
00:26:13.200 --> 00:26:15.160
<v Speaker 2>As if he's been wronged.

537
00:26:16.119 --> 00:26:20.160
<v Speaker 3>And I think most folks that I you know, and

538
00:26:20.200 --> 00:26:22.200
<v Speaker 3>I'm talking about and I'm not talking about mel Kuiper,

539
00:26:22.200 --> 00:26:24.880
<v Speaker 3>because I mean, he was a clown, but and he

540
00:26:24.960 --> 00:26:25.880
<v Speaker 3>kind of always has been.

541
00:26:25.960 --> 00:26:28.160
<v Speaker 2>I mean, the guy's never been.

542
00:26:28.039 --> 00:26:33.279
<v Speaker 3>Good at predicting exactly where teams will go and predicting

543
00:26:34.079 --> 00:26:37.319
<v Speaker 3>who's gonna end up being good or not. Like what

544
00:26:37.359 --> 00:26:39.799
<v Speaker 3>folks have to realize is the people who help cover

545
00:26:39.880 --> 00:26:47.160
<v Speaker 3>the draft for ESPN, NFL Network, whoever, I mean, they're entertainers.

546
00:26:47.400 --> 00:26:49.960
<v Speaker 3>They're not they're not judged off being right or wrong.

547
00:26:50.839 --> 00:26:52.640
<v Speaker 3>And Kuiper is one of those guys that has often

548
00:26:52.680 --> 00:26:55.640
<v Speaker 3>been really wrong and then set out landish things that

549
00:26:55.799 --> 00:26:58.359
<v Speaker 3>like clearly tells you that he knows that he's there

550
00:26:58.359 --> 00:27:02.960
<v Speaker 3>to entertain, Like, didn't he he'd retire if somebody wasn't

551
00:27:03.000 --> 00:27:04.720
<v Speaker 3>like an all time great quarterback?

552
00:27:04.880 --> 00:27:06.599
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Jimmy Clawson, Yeah, Yeah.

553
00:27:06.640 --> 00:27:12.039
<v Speaker 3>So, like Kuiper's been outspoken and really really strong about

554
00:27:12.119 --> 00:27:15.319
<v Speaker 3>certain players saying certain things because technically that's what ESPN

555
00:27:15.359 --> 00:27:17.319
<v Speaker 3>wants him to do. They don't pay him to be

556
00:27:17.400 --> 00:27:20.359
<v Speaker 3>right about who's going to be great, and they never have.

557
00:27:20.799 --> 00:27:24.440
<v Speaker 3>It's never been really what that is, it's entertainment. And again,

558
00:27:24.519 --> 00:27:26.839
<v Speaker 3>if you just think about the lead up to the

559
00:27:26.920 --> 00:27:30.440
<v Speaker 3>draft and all the talk that's out there, ask yourself,

560
00:27:31.240 --> 00:27:34.400
<v Speaker 3>why would any NFL team ever share any information about

561
00:27:34.400 --> 00:27:37.960
<v Speaker 3>what they intend to do with anybody. There's no scenario

562
00:27:38.000 --> 00:27:41.039
<v Speaker 3>they could ever help them. In fact, them sharing information,

563
00:27:41.920 --> 00:27:44.279
<v Speaker 3>the only way it could benefit them is to share

564
00:27:44.480 --> 00:27:47.559
<v Speaker 3>fake information knowing that it's going to be spread out

565
00:27:47.599 --> 00:27:49.839
<v Speaker 3>there and hopes that maybe they can throw somebody off

566
00:27:50.759 --> 00:27:53.960
<v Speaker 3>about what they're gonna do, or maybe they could have

567
00:27:54.119 --> 00:27:57.480
<v Speaker 3>another franchise have second thoughts about what they're going to do,

568
00:27:57.599 --> 00:27:59.960
<v Speaker 3>so then they can swoop in and get a goa.

569
00:28:00.599 --> 00:28:04.359
<v Speaker 3>I mean, look that, I'm sure that's happened a lot

570
00:28:05.440 --> 00:28:08.440
<v Speaker 3>guys on the inside with these NFL teams talking to

571
00:28:08.559 --> 00:28:11.039
<v Speaker 3>the you know, the talking heads that let us know

572
00:28:11.079 --> 00:28:13.519
<v Speaker 3>about what's gonna happen, what they're hearing when it comes

573
00:28:13.559 --> 00:28:14.480
<v Speaker 3>to the NFL Draft.

574
00:28:14.640 --> 00:28:16.359
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure they've dogged players.

575
00:28:16.000 --> 00:28:17.759
<v Speaker 3>They really like in hopes of it getting out there

576
00:28:17.759 --> 00:28:19.920
<v Speaker 3>that they stink, and then they can swoop in and

577
00:28:19.960 --> 00:28:21.839
<v Speaker 3>take advantage of it. Because if we didn't do that,

578
00:28:22.400 --> 00:28:24.559
<v Speaker 3>he wouldn't have fallen to, you know, pick number thirteen

579
00:28:24.599 --> 00:28:26.960
<v Speaker 3>to us, Like to me, sometimes you just got to

580
00:28:26.960 --> 00:28:31.000
<v Speaker 3>consider what makes sense and what doesn't. So there were

581
00:28:31.039 --> 00:28:34.200
<v Speaker 3>guys like Lou Riddick was one of them.

582
00:28:34.640 --> 00:28:35.559
<v Speaker 2>Burga McFarland.

583
00:28:36.400 --> 00:28:40.680
<v Speaker 3>I think even I think even rich Eisen to an extent,

584
00:28:41.160 --> 00:28:45.279
<v Speaker 3>maybe even Rapaport, that were making it out as if

585
00:28:45.720 --> 00:28:49.079
<v Speaker 3>the NFL had wronged Shad or Sanders. And to go

586
00:28:49.119 --> 00:28:51.599
<v Speaker 3>back to what I said on Friday, once we got

587
00:28:51.599 --> 00:28:54.119
<v Speaker 3>to Day two and he wasn't taken in the first round,

588
00:28:54.680 --> 00:28:58.079
<v Speaker 3>nobody's entitled to be drafted like, the draft is not

589
00:28:58.119 --> 00:29:03.000
<v Speaker 3>a competition. There's not a scoreboard, there's not stats. The

590
00:29:03.079 --> 00:29:05.920
<v Speaker 3>draft is a decision and it's a job. They hire

591
00:29:05.920 --> 00:29:09.839
<v Speaker 3>who they want to hire, and they can pick whoever

592
00:29:09.839 --> 00:29:14.119
<v Speaker 3>they want. And what kept getting ignored despite it being

593
00:29:14.119 --> 00:29:18.720
<v Speaker 3>a really obvious thing is that he wasn't the top

594
00:29:19.680 --> 00:29:24.000
<v Speaker 3>quarterback in a really bad quarterback crop apparent according to

595
00:29:24.039 --> 00:29:26.720
<v Speaker 3>everybody else, Like and again it played out that way

596
00:29:27.400 --> 00:29:28.839
<v Speaker 3>right when you don't when when you get past the

597
00:29:28.880 --> 00:29:32.160
<v Speaker 3>second round, maybe even past the third round, if you're

598
00:29:32.200 --> 00:29:35.359
<v Speaker 3>drafting a quarterback, he might end up being your starter,

599
00:29:35.519 --> 00:29:39.279
<v Speaker 3>but you're drafting him to be your backup. I think

600
00:29:39.319 --> 00:29:44.039
<v Speaker 3>Chael Sanders, even on Saturday afternoon, if if grilled about it,

601
00:29:44.119 --> 00:29:45.720
<v Speaker 3>like in an interview, I don't think he'd be able

602
00:29:45.759 --> 00:29:49.200
<v Speaker 3>to control himself. If if he was asked about being

603
00:29:49.240 --> 00:29:52.559
<v Speaker 3>a backup. I think he probably would just without even thinking,

604
00:29:53.319 --> 00:29:55.400
<v Speaker 3>respond the way you would expect him, respond as if

605
00:29:55.400 --> 00:29:56.319
<v Speaker 3>he's too good for that.

606
00:29:56.799 --> 00:29:58.720
<v Speaker 2>No way he's going to be the starter.

607
00:29:59.720 --> 00:30:04.319
<v Speaker 3>Now, if he says that with the real real message

608
00:30:04.319 --> 00:30:06.799
<v Speaker 3>of he's gonna outwork everybody and he's going to prove

609
00:30:06.799 --> 00:30:09.079
<v Speaker 3>people wrong, that's different. But that's not really what any

610
00:30:09.160 --> 00:30:13.759
<v Speaker 3>I mean, it's really not what they've ever done. But

611
00:30:13.880 --> 00:30:18.079
<v Speaker 3>I thought this this this was from Saturday afternoon, and

612
00:30:18.240 --> 00:30:20.960
<v Speaker 3>I'm sorry, Saturday morning, right before the third right before

613
00:30:20.960 --> 00:30:23.640
<v Speaker 3>the rest of the draft took place, fourth through the

614
00:30:23.640 --> 00:30:27.000
<v Speaker 3>seventh rounds. And to me, this this made so much sense.

615
00:30:27.319 --> 00:30:29.960
<v Speaker 3>It was so predictable, and it was what I was in.

616
00:30:30.000 --> 00:30:30.359
<v Speaker 2>Trust me.

617
00:30:30.400 --> 00:30:32.160
<v Speaker 3>This isn't a Hey, I knew everything that was going on,

618
00:30:32.240 --> 00:30:34.119
<v Speaker 3>and you all didn't trust me. I mean, I'm just

619
00:30:34.359 --> 00:30:36.599
<v Speaker 3>I'm just trying to figure out what makes sense here.

620
00:30:37.160 --> 00:30:40.319
<v Speaker 3>And to hear this report from the NFL network, this

621
00:30:40.680 --> 00:30:43.079
<v Speaker 3>made too much sense for it to not be why

622
00:30:43.839 --> 00:30:46.319
<v Speaker 3>he ended up slotting. And if you just you know,

623
00:30:47.400 --> 00:30:50.319
<v Speaker 3>hearing what you're about to hear from Tom Pelisari of

624
00:30:50.359 --> 00:30:54.119
<v Speaker 3>the NFL Network, Pelisara, I should say, hearing everything you

625
00:30:54.160 --> 00:30:57.079
<v Speaker 3>heard about Shadhor and Dion and then hearing how the

626
00:30:57.160 --> 00:30:59.720
<v Speaker 3>NFL decided to respond to it, none of this should

627
00:30:59.720 --> 00:31:02.599
<v Speaker 3>suppor you in any way. And if it does, here's

628
00:31:02.640 --> 00:31:04.799
<v Speaker 3>what happened to you. You got a little too caught

629
00:31:04.880 --> 00:31:11.839
<v Speaker 3>up in the TMZ type Sanders circus. That sounds like

630
00:31:11.839 --> 00:31:15.640
<v Speaker 3>a real thing, doesn't it. The TMZ Sanders circus I'm

631
00:31:15.640 --> 00:31:18.000
<v Speaker 3>sure that's not I mean just came up with that

632
00:31:18.079 --> 00:31:19.720
<v Speaker 3>the top of my head, but like that's what this is.

633
00:31:21.319 --> 00:31:24.319
<v Speaker 6>Mike was not a shock within the NFL and team

634
00:31:24.359 --> 00:31:26.880
<v Speaker 6>buildings when Shador Sanders did not go in the first round.

635
00:31:26.920 --> 00:31:29.480
<v Speaker 6>I would fairly tell you it is a surprise that

636
00:31:29.559 --> 00:31:31.319
<v Speaker 6>he is still on the board at the start of

637
00:31:31.400 --> 00:31:35.160
<v Speaker 6>day three. Philosophically, some teams feel like you're drafted at

638
00:31:35.160 --> 00:31:37.759
<v Speaker 6>the quarterback position. Specifically, if you think you got a starter,

639
00:31:38.079 --> 00:31:40.519
<v Speaker 6>you take him in round one. If you're drafting somebody

640
00:31:40.519 --> 00:31:42.480
<v Speaker 6>to be your backup, you don't want to do that

641
00:31:42.799 --> 00:31:45.400
<v Speaker 6>until day three. I spoke last night with one general

642
00:31:45.440 --> 00:31:49.400
<v Speaker 6>manager who is considering taking Shador Sanders today. He pointed

643
00:31:49.440 --> 00:31:51.880
<v Speaker 6>back all the way to March twenty twenty four and

644
00:31:51.960 --> 00:31:55.240
<v Speaker 6>something that Chador's father, Dion Sanders said on a podcast

645
00:31:55.279 --> 00:31:58.400
<v Speaker 6>talking about Bulls chadur and Travis Hunter, saying that if

646
00:31:58.440 --> 00:32:01.079
<v Speaker 6>they are drafted by team that they don't want to

647
00:32:01.119 --> 00:32:03.519
<v Speaker 6>go to, He's gonna step in and pull an ELI,

648
00:32:03.720 --> 00:32:07.079
<v Speaker 6>meaning force those players to not actually go to that

649
00:32:07.160 --> 00:32:10.119
<v Speaker 6>team and try to get them traded. Throughout the pre

650
00:32:10.240 --> 00:32:14.279
<v Speaker 6>draft process, Shador Sanders very much proceeded as if he

651
00:32:14.400 --> 00:32:17.279
<v Speaker 6>was dictating to clubs where he was going to go

652
00:32:17.720 --> 00:32:19.720
<v Speaker 6>rather than how the draft works, which is the other

653
00:32:19.759 --> 00:32:22.359
<v Speaker 6>way around. And there were a bunch of opportunities missed

654
00:32:22.559 --> 00:32:25.519
<v Speaker 6>at the various checkpoints through that pre draft process, go

655
00:32:25.559 --> 00:32:27.559
<v Speaker 6>all the way back to All Star season. Instead of

656
00:32:27.559 --> 00:32:29.440
<v Speaker 6>going to the Senior Bowl, he went to the East

657
00:32:29.440 --> 00:32:32.599
<v Speaker 6>West Shrine Bowl in his backyard in Dallas. Despite an

658
00:32:32.680 --> 00:32:34.640
<v Speaker 6>NFL memo saying if you go to these All Star games,

659
00:32:34.640 --> 00:32:38.119
<v Speaker 6>you have to practice, Shadur chose not to. At the combine,

660
00:32:38.119 --> 00:32:40.680
<v Speaker 6>it has now well documented some of his formal interviews

661
00:32:40.880 --> 00:32:43.440
<v Speaker 6>did not go well. One assistant coach told me, in

662
00:32:43.480 --> 00:32:45.480
<v Speaker 6>all his years, it was the worst formal interview he'd

663
00:32:45.480 --> 00:32:47.720
<v Speaker 6>ever been through. People said that Shador was trying to

664
00:32:47.720 --> 00:32:50.079
<v Speaker 6>dictate how he wanted things to go and made them

665
00:32:50.079 --> 00:32:52.359
<v Speaker 6>feel small. Even at the Pro Day, the entire Big

666
00:32:52.400 --> 00:32:55.240
<v Speaker 6>Twelve have an event in Dallas. Chadur was there but

667
00:32:55.319 --> 00:32:58.440
<v Speaker 6>did not work out. He had a showcase instead in Colorado.

668
00:32:58.559 --> 00:33:01.079
<v Speaker 6>All of which is to say for a player who

669
00:33:01.079 --> 00:33:04.039
<v Speaker 6>had a variety of questions both about the talent level,

670
00:33:04.160 --> 00:33:06.400
<v Speaker 6>how we would fit into an NFL system, how he

671
00:33:06.400 --> 00:33:09.079
<v Speaker 6>would adjust from his play style in college, but also

672
00:33:09.119 --> 00:33:12.000
<v Speaker 6>about the potential culture shock for the first time playing

673
00:33:12.000 --> 00:33:15.119
<v Speaker 6>for someone who is not his father. There were opportunities

674
00:33:15.119 --> 00:33:17.799
<v Speaker 6>that Shaduur sators could have taken. There he seemed to

675
00:33:17.839 --> 00:33:19.720
<v Speaker 6>feel as if he was in an elite category where

676
00:33:19.759 --> 00:33:22.559
<v Speaker 6>he could choose the few teams he wanted to go to. Now,

677
00:33:22.599 --> 00:33:24.960
<v Speaker 6>some of those very same teams that might be considering

678
00:33:25.039 --> 00:33:28.240
<v Speaker 6>taking Shaduur today didn't get those opportunities. To answer their

679
00:33:28.319 --> 00:33:30.240
<v Speaker 6>question what teams want on these visits?

680
00:33:30.279 --> 00:33:32.680
<v Speaker 3>And we so, I mean again, does any of that

681
00:33:32.759 --> 00:33:34.200
<v Speaker 3>surprise you at all?

682
00:33:34.559 --> 00:33:35.119
<v Speaker 2>It shouldn't.

683
00:33:35.839 --> 00:33:40.079
<v Speaker 3>I mean, he handled everything as if he was going

684
00:33:40.160 --> 00:33:42.920
<v Speaker 3>to be able to decide wherever he wanted to go

685
00:33:42.960 --> 00:33:47.000
<v Speaker 3>because everybody wanted him, and that's just not reality. Say

686
00:33:47.039 --> 00:33:49.880
<v Speaker 3>what you will about his ability, that's just not reality

687
00:33:49.920 --> 00:33:52.680
<v Speaker 3>of how any of this works. And for no one

688
00:33:53.440 --> 00:33:56.039
<v Speaker 3>to be able to, you know, let him know that

689
00:33:57.440 --> 00:33:59.559
<v Speaker 3>you're gonna have to go wherever you get taken, because

690
00:33:59.559 --> 00:34:01.640
<v Speaker 3>you should be lucky that somebody wants to take you.

691
00:34:01.839 --> 00:34:03.400
<v Speaker 3>And it's not because it would be like a gift,

692
00:34:03.480 --> 00:34:05.880
<v Speaker 3>like I think if somebody took him it would early.

693
00:34:05.920 --> 00:34:07.640
<v Speaker 3>It would be because they did believe that he had the

694
00:34:07.720 --> 00:34:09.400
<v Speaker 3>upside and potential to be really really good.

695
00:34:09.880 --> 00:34:10.840
<v Speaker 2>But he's not.

696
00:34:11.440 --> 00:34:13.800
<v Speaker 3>He's never shown at any point that he's got some

697
00:34:13.920 --> 00:34:16.639
<v Speaker 3>ability that like you just will never see again. And

698
00:34:16.679 --> 00:34:19.199
<v Speaker 3>I just to me, I'm thinking, if you if there

699
00:34:19.239 --> 00:34:23.039
<v Speaker 3>are teams that didn't even get the chance to really

700
00:34:23.119 --> 00:34:25.679
<v Speaker 3>vet the situation with you, to see if they wanted

701
00:34:25.679 --> 00:34:27.880
<v Speaker 3>to pick you because you felt like you were too

702
00:34:27.880 --> 00:34:29.480
<v Speaker 3>good and you didn't want to talk to them because

703
00:34:29.519 --> 00:34:32.400
<v Speaker 3>they didn't have an early enough pick. You have nothing.

704
00:34:32.639 --> 00:34:34.960
<v Speaker 3>You have nobody to blame but yourself as to why

705
00:34:35.000 --> 00:34:38.119
<v Speaker 3>you're still sitting there on day three. This is pretty simple,

706
00:34:38.199 --> 00:34:41.239
<v Speaker 3>Like this is their own fault. He probably would have

707
00:34:41.239 --> 00:34:44.159
<v Speaker 3>been taken earlier had he, you know, understood that. Like

708
00:34:44.480 --> 00:34:49.760
<v Speaker 3>he's not gonna decide these teams decide, and I mean

709
00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:54.400
<v Speaker 3>Dion again, Like I'm pretty sure he thinks he's just

710
00:34:54.840 --> 00:34:56.639
<v Speaker 3>doing his best to support his son. And this I'm

711
00:34:56.639 --> 00:35:00.159
<v Speaker 3>not saying he's a bad dad, but like, how I mean,

712
00:35:00.559 --> 00:35:04.280
<v Speaker 3>can Dion be surprised whenever he finds out that saying

713
00:35:04.360 --> 00:35:10.000
<v Speaker 3>this led to teams not wanting to take his son.

714
00:35:10.119 --> 00:35:13.159
<v Speaker 7>Teams that I won't allow him to play for Woo.

715
00:35:13.559 --> 00:35:16.440
<v Speaker 7>This is my profession. I know what's behind the curtain.

716
00:35:16.519 --> 00:35:18.199
<v Speaker 7>We ain't got to get back there for me to

717
00:35:18.280 --> 00:35:21.239
<v Speaker 7>understand what's not prominent for my son. I'm not doing it.

718
00:35:21.239 --> 00:35:26.480
<v Speaker 7>He doesn't listen to you. Who, No, you must mean owners,

719
00:35:26.880 --> 00:35:29.519
<v Speaker 7>not my son. Have you told him privately who you

720
00:35:29.519 --> 00:35:31.199
<v Speaker 7>would like for him to play for. It's not like

721
00:35:31.280 --> 00:35:33.400
<v Speaker 7>who I would like for him to play for. It's

722
00:35:33.960 --> 00:35:36.559
<v Speaker 7>a couple of teams that I won't allow him to

723
00:35:36.639 --> 00:35:37.079
<v Speaker 7>play for.

724
00:35:37.440 --> 00:35:42.679
<v Speaker 2>So again they're delusional. They think that again.

725
00:35:43.039 --> 00:35:45.599
<v Speaker 3>Deon Sanders is one of the best athletes probably ever

726
00:35:45.599 --> 00:35:48.719
<v Speaker 3>when you consider how talented he was and how good

727
00:35:48.760 --> 00:35:51.239
<v Speaker 3>he was at both football, and he was also good

728
00:35:51.280 --> 00:35:53.800
<v Speaker 3>at baseball. Not just a guy who played both, he

729
00:35:53.880 --> 00:35:57.039
<v Speaker 3>was good at both. But that has nothing to do

730
00:35:57.119 --> 00:36:01.199
<v Speaker 3>with his son. I mean they carry themselves as if

731
00:36:01.320 --> 00:36:04.239
<v Speaker 3>the whole family has accomplished what Dion has accomplished. And

732
00:36:04.239 --> 00:36:07.119
<v Speaker 3>Dion is an acquired taste I think because of his

733
00:36:07.840 --> 00:36:10.320
<v Speaker 3>confidence in himself. Some would say his arrogance, but you

734
00:36:10.360 --> 00:36:12.880
<v Speaker 3>know what, He's actually done, some real things that give

735
00:36:12.920 --> 00:36:15.360
<v Speaker 3>you a good, good indication as to why he feels

736
00:36:15.400 --> 00:36:17.639
<v Speaker 3>the way he feels about himself and what he's done.

737
00:36:18.360 --> 00:36:20.320
<v Speaker 3>I just think it would be a little wise of

738
00:36:20.400 --> 00:36:22.119
<v Speaker 3>him to have let his kids know that he had

739
00:36:22.119 --> 00:36:25.519
<v Speaker 3>to go earn that he had actually do something to

740
00:36:25.800 --> 00:36:28.840
<v Speaker 3>get there, whereas she'd or it's not a bad quarterback

741
00:36:28.880 --> 00:36:31.920
<v Speaker 3>by any means, But like the notion that like you're

742
00:36:32.000 --> 00:36:33.880
<v Speaker 3>going to be able to dictate at all because you're

743
00:36:33.920 --> 00:36:35.880
<v Speaker 3>that good, that's not living with the rest of the

744
00:36:35.920 --> 00:36:37.320
<v Speaker 3>world in reality.

745
00:36:37.599 --> 00:36:38.639
<v Speaker 2>That's called delusion.

746
00:36:40.119 --> 00:36:43.119
<v Speaker 3>And there's more that we can play from, you know,

747
00:36:43.440 --> 00:36:47.320
<v Speaker 3>just others sharing what their experience was like when they decide,

748
00:36:47.360 --> 00:36:49.960
<v Speaker 3>you know, when they consider potentially taking him in the draft.

749
00:36:49.960 --> 00:36:51.880
<v Speaker 3>So again, like I guess he can prove a lot

750
00:36:51.920 --> 00:36:56.199
<v Speaker 3>of these guys wrong, but like, I just don't see

751
00:36:56.199 --> 00:36:57.960
<v Speaker 3>how anybody can be surprised that this played out the

752
00:36:58.000 --> 00:37:02.320
<v Speaker 3>way that it did because again, imagine the NFL needing

753
00:37:02.320 --> 00:37:07.840
<v Speaker 3>any specific player to be successful. They don't quick break

754
00:37:07.920 --> 00:37:09.360
<v Speaker 3>keep a locker here on Sports Talk seven.

755
00:37:09.320 --> 00:37:14.280
<v Speaker 1>Ninety Now back to coffee and company, fueled by Thornton's

756
00:37:14.480 --> 00:37:16.599
<v Speaker 1>on Sports Talk seven nine day.

757
00:37:17.480 --> 00:37:19.960
<v Speaker 3>Wrapping up the four o'clock hour here on a Monday afternoon,

758
00:37:21.159 --> 00:37:23.159
<v Speaker 3>we still got another hour to go, so stick around.

759
00:37:23.199 --> 00:37:27.480
<v Speaker 3>We'll talk a little more derby, not necessarily the race itself,

760
00:37:27.559 --> 00:37:31.360
<v Speaker 3>but the updated prices for a lot of things that

761
00:37:32.159 --> 00:37:36.159
<v Speaker 3>you'll be looking to purchase, although I guess if you are,

762
00:37:36.519 --> 00:37:38.920
<v Speaker 3>I mean, is everything still all inclusive? I feel like

763
00:37:39.800 --> 00:37:41.760
<v Speaker 3>that's the way they've been doing it the last few years,

764
00:37:41.800 --> 00:37:44.239
<v Speaker 3>which when you buy a ticket, yeah, yeah, which means

765
00:37:44.360 --> 00:37:46.440
<v Speaker 3>which makes sense as to why it's so expensive to

766
00:37:46.440 --> 00:37:50.000
<v Speaker 3>get a ticket. I mean that that really does that

767
00:37:50.039 --> 00:37:52.119
<v Speaker 3>really does make it, you know, kind of pay for itself.

768
00:37:52.119 --> 00:37:54.920
<v Speaker 3>But then again, so if you're there, I guess this,

769
00:37:55.239 --> 00:37:58.840
<v Speaker 3>I would imagine all inclusive is probably just for just

770
00:37:58.920 --> 00:38:03.039
<v Speaker 3>for the Ohlks and Derby No, because you know, like

771
00:38:03.079 --> 00:38:05.360
<v Speaker 3>there'd be no prices if everybody who gets in with

772
00:38:05.400 --> 00:38:07.599
<v Speaker 3>the ticket had had to pay right like you know,

773
00:38:07.639 --> 00:38:09.679
<v Speaker 3>So anyways, we'll get into that because that you could expect,

774
00:38:09.920 --> 00:38:12.679
<v Speaker 3>like a lot of things, it's it's not cheap, but

775
00:38:13.400 --> 00:38:18.320
<v Speaker 3>I'm of the belief that they could charge whatever for

776
00:38:18.440 --> 00:38:23.079
<v Speaker 3>tickets whatever, and people would pay.

777
00:38:23.280 --> 00:38:26.679
<v Speaker 2>Get you that down, thank you.

778
00:38:27.199 --> 00:38:29.480
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I maybe I'm wrong, Like clearly you will

779
00:38:29.519 --> 00:38:32.000
<v Speaker 3>price out certain people at a certain at a certain

780
00:38:33.199 --> 00:38:37.320
<v Speaker 3>you know cap But I don't know, Austin, You've been

781
00:38:37.320 --> 00:38:41.079
<v Speaker 3>there on Derby Day and with our credentials we get

782
00:38:41.119 --> 00:38:43.119
<v Speaker 3>access to you know, a lot.

783
00:38:43.159 --> 00:38:45.239
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you can kind of go wherever we want

784
00:38:45.239 --> 00:38:46.000
<v Speaker 2>for the most.

785
00:38:45.800 --> 00:38:48.800
<v Speaker 3>Part, Yes, And I just feel like, yeah, I was like, yeah,

786
00:38:48.800 --> 00:38:51.039
<v Speaker 3>maybe I'm just maybe I'm just judging based off of

787
00:38:51.079 --> 00:38:53.559
<v Speaker 3>like appearance, but like I kind of feel like this

788
00:38:53.599 --> 00:38:56.119
<v Speaker 3>could be triple the price and these people would all

789
00:38:56.119 --> 00:38:57.320
<v Speaker 3>still be here, you know what I.

790
00:38:57.360 --> 00:38:59.320
<v Speaker 4>Mean, like and they would have missed a beat. Yeah.

791
00:38:59.440 --> 00:39:02.559
<v Speaker 3>So and I you know, I I'm not going to

792
00:39:02.639 --> 00:39:04.639
<v Speaker 3>knock Churchill downs because who am I to try to

793
00:39:04.679 --> 00:39:05.920
<v Speaker 3>tell them how to run their business?

794
00:39:06.599 --> 00:39:08.760
<v Speaker 2>But I think they know that too. By the way,

795
00:39:08.880 --> 00:39:10.679
<v Speaker 2>Like for those that have that have had.

796
00:39:10.559 --> 00:39:13.079
<v Speaker 3>The complaints, and I think they're they're they're legitimate complaints

797
00:39:13.079 --> 00:39:18.159
<v Speaker 3>that Churchill doesn't really appeal to the average Kentucky and

798
00:39:18.159 --> 00:39:21.199
<v Speaker 3>a native that that you know that used to go

799
00:39:21.440 --> 00:39:23.840
<v Speaker 3>because of the price and everything. Well, you know, it's

800
00:39:23.880 --> 00:39:26.280
<v Speaker 3>their business and they can do whatever they want. And uh,

801
00:39:26.599 --> 00:39:31.000
<v Speaker 3>you know, i'd say that, uh, there's no end in

802
00:39:31.039 --> 00:39:33.320
<v Speaker 3>sight for their success, right, I mean, they're gonna be,

803
00:39:33.599 --> 00:39:35.840
<v Speaker 3>They're gonna be. I mean, this is something that you know,

804
00:39:35.880 --> 00:39:38.639
<v Speaker 3>I have much more awareness of it now that I

805
00:39:38.679 --> 00:39:41.920
<v Speaker 3>get to you know, I'm in the industry that I'm in,

806
00:39:42.800 --> 00:39:45.079
<v Speaker 3>but it is one of the biggest sporting events on

807
00:39:45.079 --> 00:39:47.679
<v Speaker 3>the planet. So you know, with that, there's really you know,

808
00:39:47.719 --> 00:39:50.400
<v Speaker 3>there's enough people across the planet that enjoy this enough

809
00:39:50.400 --> 00:39:53.760
<v Speaker 3>to where if if you know, they made they made

810
00:39:53.760 --> 00:39:55.400
<v Speaker 3>it even more expensive.

811
00:39:55.159 --> 00:39:58.360
<v Speaker 2>People would still be there because it's the thing to do.

812
00:39:58.599 --> 00:40:00.400
<v Speaker 2>I mean, the.

813
00:40:02.239 --> 00:40:04.719
<v Speaker 3>I'm trying to think of boben Field where the private

814
00:40:04.960 --> 00:40:07.039
<v Speaker 3>jets come in. Have you ever seen pictures of that Austin.

815
00:40:07.159 --> 00:40:09.280
<v Speaker 5>Yes, I've been over there before when it for Derby

816
00:40:09.320 --> 00:40:10.800
<v Speaker 5>though like whenever, no, no, no, I have it.

817
00:40:10.920 --> 00:40:11.000
<v Speaker 1>No.

818
00:40:11.400 --> 00:40:13.039
<v Speaker 3>So a lot of the private jets that come in

819
00:40:13.079 --> 00:40:14.960
<v Speaker 3>for Derby, like you know Tom Brady when he brings

820
00:40:15.000 --> 00:40:18.199
<v Speaker 3>the Patriots and all that, those kind of people they

821
00:40:18.199 --> 00:40:22.079
<v Speaker 3>fly they're private jets over there, and there's pictures from

822
00:40:22.079 --> 00:40:24.199
<v Speaker 3>over the years, and just to see how many of

823
00:40:24.199 --> 00:40:26.639
<v Speaker 3>those jets there are it really because again, like I

824
00:40:26.679 --> 00:40:29.159
<v Speaker 3>feel like if you have a private jet or access

825
00:40:29.159 --> 00:40:33.519
<v Speaker 3>to one of your riding on one, like little old me,

826
00:40:34.000 --> 00:40:36.159
<v Speaker 3>I just think like, man, you must be a big deal,

827
00:40:36.280 --> 00:40:38.159
<v Speaker 3>you know what I mean. So, like to see the

828
00:40:38.199 --> 00:40:41.599
<v Speaker 3>amount of people who travel here that way makes it

829
00:40:41.719 --> 00:40:43.480
<v Speaker 3>you know, it's one of the many things that kind

830
00:40:43.480 --> 00:40:45.840
<v Speaker 3>of puts it in perspective for me as to just

831
00:40:45.880 --> 00:40:48.480
<v Speaker 3>how big of a deal the Derby is, which again

832
00:40:48.519 --> 00:40:51.719
<v Speaker 3>I'm sure a lot of people listening know that, but yeah,

833
00:40:51.800 --> 00:40:55.079
<v Speaker 3>it's you know what I used to think of Churchill Downs.

834
00:40:55.599 --> 00:40:57.079
<v Speaker 3>I used to just think about when I would go,

835
00:40:57.199 --> 00:41:00.599
<v Speaker 3>like as a kid, not for Derby, some some oaks,

836
00:41:00.599 --> 00:41:03.599
<v Speaker 3>but just like the visual of the paddock and whatnot,

837
00:41:04.280 --> 00:41:06.760
<v Speaker 3>it just doesn't look like that anymore, and that doesn't

838
00:41:06.760 --> 00:41:08.119
<v Speaker 3>you know, in a way it kind of makes me

839
00:41:08.199 --> 00:41:10.920
<v Speaker 3>sad for like nostalgic reasons, but also like if you've

840
00:41:10.960 --> 00:41:13.960
<v Speaker 3>been over there recently, it looks freaking beautiful, Like the

841
00:41:14.000 --> 00:41:18.559
<v Speaker 3>place is nice as can be. So yeah, I'm getting

842
00:41:18.599 --> 00:41:18.920
<v Speaker 3>the Derby.

843
00:41:18.960 --> 00:41:20.039
<v Speaker 2>I'm getting in the Derby spirit.

844
00:41:20.119 --> 00:41:21.519
<v Speaker 4>You'll feel it, You'll feel a Friday.

845
00:41:21.639 --> 00:41:24.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean, it's it's it's it's a big even

846
00:41:25.000 --> 00:41:26.800
<v Speaker 3>if you're like, again, I've made it clear, I'm not

847
00:41:26.800 --> 00:41:28.800
<v Speaker 3>really big into horse racing, just because it's not something

848
00:41:28.840 --> 00:41:31.039
<v Speaker 3>I know a whole lot about and wasn't really exposed

849
00:41:31.079 --> 00:41:33.679
<v Speaker 3>to it a whole lot growing up around here. But

850
00:41:34.440 --> 00:41:36.920
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I think you could be even more anti

851
00:41:37.280 --> 00:41:38.199
<v Speaker 3>horse and I'm not anti.

852
00:41:38.280 --> 00:41:39.800
<v Speaker 2>It's just you know, I don't think you have.

853
00:41:39.719 --> 00:41:42.159
<v Speaker 3>To be in any way knowledgeable or give a damn

854
00:41:42.159 --> 00:41:45.599
<v Speaker 3>about horse racing the sport to to just feel the

855
00:41:45.719 --> 00:41:48.559
<v Speaker 3>vibe around this city whenever we get here to this week,

856
00:41:48.960 --> 00:41:50.239
<v Speaker 3>and it's it's a special thing.

857
00:41:50.519 --> 00:41:52.679
<v Speaker 2>So good good stuff.

858
00:41:52.679 --> 00:41:54.519
<v Speaker 3>All right, we got another hour coming your way, and

859
00:41:54.559 --> 00:41:56.280
<v Speaker 3>I'm hoping that it's some good stuff. We'll get back

860
00:41:56.320 --> 00:41:59.119
<v Speaker 3>into the draft recap because I do think there's more

861
00:41:59.559 --> 00:42:02.079
<v Speaker 3>worth here when it comes to just to me, I

862
00:42:02.079 --> 00:42:04.840
<v Speaker 3>think it's an explanation that really makes total sense, and

863
00:42:05.000 --> 00:42:07.039
<v Speaker 3>maybe we didn't even need the explanation because it was

864
00:42:07.039 --> 00:42:09.360
<v Speaker 3>probably pretty obvious to a lot of people like myself

865
00:42:09.639 --> 00:42:12.960
<v Speaker 3>as to why shid or Sanders slip the way he did. Also,

866
00:42:14.360 --> 00:42:16.079
<v Speaker 3>a college basketball thing, I want to get into the

867
00:42:16.079 --> 00:42:19.679
<v Speaker 3>acc they're doing something when it comes to basketball to

868
00:42:20.880 --> 00:42:24.679
<v Speaker 3>kind of prove what we all know. I guess what

869
00:42:24.719 --> 00:42:26.519
<v Speaker 3>they're doing is going to prove it. They're not trying

870
00:42:26.519 --> 00:42:28.559
<v Speaker 3>to prove it, but they're going to make a scheduling change,

871
00:42:28.840 --> 00:42:32.000
<v Speaker 3>which again confirms that they realize now that their league

872
00:42:32.039 --> 00:42:34.559
<v Speaker 3>is not very good in hoops and they need to.

873
00:42:34.480 --> 00:42:35.760
<v Speaker 2>Do something about it.

874
00:42:35.840 --> 00:42:37.599
<v Speaker 3>Stick with us five o'clock hours next right here on

875
00:42:37.639 --> 00:42:42.400
