We'll welcome in Tim Brown of RG six Steers here momentarily.

32
00:01:36,519 --> 00:01:37,159
Speaker 2: Let me know when you.

33
00:01:37,159 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 3: Got him on the line, uh, Andrew, and we'll welcome

34
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:42,879
him in. But we're getting your prep getting you ready

35
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:48,359
for the BYU Utah rivalry game UH BYU. Entering the

36
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:52,239
twenty twenty five season, they were ranked actually ninth in

37
00:01:52,319 --> 00:01:55,159
total wins and they're still in the top ten over

38
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:59,439
the last fifty years because six and o uh six

39
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:03,719
and oh back to back seasons is something that needs

40
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:07,200
to be celebrated, obviously, but we're hoping for more, hoping

41
00:02:07,239 --> 00:02:11,240
for another win, hoping to stay undefeated. Right over the

42
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:15,439
last fifty years, BYU has done more with less, in

43
00:02:15,479 --> 00:02:18,800
my opinion, than any other program in the country per

44
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:23,599
dollars spend, BYU has won more games than any other

45
00:02:24,199 --> 00:02:28,800
football program in the country. And now now that BYU

46
00:02:28,879 --> 00:02:31,919
has the resources, now that they have the TV revenue,

47
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:36,680
now that they have nil and donors backing the student

48
00:02:36,719 --> 00:02:43,199
athletes mentoring them, BYU is on a trajectory right now

49
00:02:43,479 --> 00:02:47,800
that I think is extremely impressive. I opened up the

50
00:02:49,159 --> 00:02:56,439
initial segment with the question, has BYU, okay been Are

51
00:02:56,479 --> 00:03:01,280
they finally turning the tables right? Finally flipping the script

52
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:06,719
of the rivalry game. Utah had a fifteen year essentially

53
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,719
head start, maybe less than that, let's say, thirteen year

54
00:03:09,759 --> 00:03:14,479
head start on BYU before BYU got some additional resources

55
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:19,039
from a P four conference. Okay, and now it only

56
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:24,560
took you know, two years, three years for BYU to

57
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,039
become better than the University of Utah.

58
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 2: That's crazy.

59
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:33,199
Speaker 3: Let's discuss it in this college football segment with Tim

60
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:34,639
Brown of RGS six series.

61
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,159
Speaker 2: Timmy, how you living? Hey? You know what?

62
00:03:37,199 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 1: Life's good? I literally just pulled off the sideline of

63
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,520
a JV football game to do the call and nothing better. Man,

64
00:03:42,599 --> 00:03:44,400
talking to you watching a little JV in the corner

65
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:44,840
of my eye.

66
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 2: I love it, man, I appreciate you joining me for

67
00:03:50,159 --> 00:03:51,000
a quick segment.

68
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 3: Is it a surprise to you at all that BYU

69
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,199
was able to catch up b Yu's on a two

70
00:03:57,199 --> 00:04:00,280
game winning streak now in the rivalry game, Ok, those

71
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,680
Holy war you taught a thirteen year head start, and

72
00:04:03,719 --> 00:04:07,719
now BYU has caught up to them, maybe even surpassed them.

73
00:04:07,759 --> 00:04:09,719
Speaker 2: We'll see how it plays out this year. Is that

74
00:04:09,759 --> 00:04:12,280
a surprise to you? Well?

75
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 1: No, and the reason being is because the game has

76
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,279
changed and call us fade is faded. It's it's really

77
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,720
based on money. When you're able to throw money out

78
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,720
of it, you're able to get players. And look, no

79
00:04:22,759 --> 00:04:26,399
matter who the coaches are, Jimmy's and joes win coaches, right,

80
00:04:26,879 --> 00:04:29,279
win games, not coaches. And so when you get good players,

81
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,120
you can do some good things. And money buys good players.

82
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,600
And that's just the reality. Money players, that's just the reality.

83
00:04:36,319 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean money buys good coaches too, right, money

84
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:43,279
buys good instructure and organizational design. You've been running Steers

85
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,399
for a long time. You need the internal and external components.

86
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 1: Look, there's no question about it. And Jay Hill's a

87
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:51,680
big part of it, right, that's a big part of this.

88
00:04:51,759 --> 00:04:54,399
And you've got an amazing coach. Frankly could be a

89
00:04:54,439 --> 00:04:56,480
head coach anywhere in the country, and he's here with us.

90
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:57,839
It's it's pretty spectacular.

91
00:05:01,079 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 2: B YU is UH six and zero right now.

92
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 3: And the storylines surrounding this particular RIVALI game is. Look,

93
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:15,720
you match these two teams up side by side, statistically, metrically,

94
00:05:15,959 --> 00:05:20,879
efficiency wise, they look exactly the same. They mirror each other.

95
00:05:21,079 --> 00:05:23,439
What will be the difference in this game? Do you

96
00:05:23,519 --> 00:05:26,199
think on who's gonna win it?

97
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 1: Well, to me, it's all based on player help. We're

98
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,279
by us beat up a little bit right now. You

99
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,040
know the linebacker corps, a little bit of the safety corps.

100
00:05:38,199 --> 00:05:40,959
If we can overcome that, we can get healthy. I

101
00:05:40,959 --> 00:05:42,680
think that's going to be the difference in the game. Really,

102
00:05:42,759 --> 00:05:46,519
is everybody healthy?

103
00:05:47,199 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, well Jack Kelly will be playing. Well that does

104
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:50,879
that turn the tide a little bit?

105
00:05:50,959 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 2: Right?

106
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,360
Speaker 3: Does Jack Kelly being healthy and playing in this game

107
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:55,319
make you more optimist than that?

108
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,639
Speaker 2: By he comes out victorious, no question?

109
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,079
Speaker 1: Had he played the Sarson, I think it would have

110
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,519
been a different game. Obviously we ultimately won, but I

111
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,000
don't think it would have been as close. I don't

112
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,160
think it would have taken an overtime game to win

113
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:12,480
had he played and had he been, you know, ultimately healthy.

114
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:17,079
Speaker 3: Last thing, Tim, what are some of the deals you

115
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,240
have there at RDS six Steers. Why should our listeners

116
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,360
give you a call if they need any siding, gutters,

117
00:06:22,439 --> 00:06:26,040
window work, custom metal work, exteer your work on their home.

118
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 1: Well, really, the biggest thing that we're just trying to

119
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,519
get to customers, especially this week as we've been on

120
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,439
a lot, is we're just trying to hammer it home.

121
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,879
To give us a call now because the snow's coming.

122
00:06:36,319 --> 00:06:37,800
You know, Park City, I don't know if everyone knew

123
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:39,399
that or not, but got a couple inches this morning.

124
00:06:39,759 --> 00:06:41,439
You know, they woke up to several inches of snow.

125
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,160
You looked at the mountains. Even right now as I'm

126
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,959
looking at the Wahsat's front, we've got snow coming down

127
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,839
lower than in the past. So it's coming. So we

128
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:50,720
just want to get to customers to be aware of

129
00:06:50,759 --> 00:06:53,920
that and get their home done before the big winners come.

130
00:06:54,319 --> 00:06:56,199
So to do that, we're really just trying to encourage

131
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,240
them to call now, send an appointment, and by doing that,

132
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,240
we'll just give him a minky Gator blanket for just

133
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,839
booking an appointment, no obligations, all in off to purchase.

134
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:05,519
Just get us there, get us in your home, give

135
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:07,279
us an opportunity to earn your business, and we'll bring

136
00:07:07,319 --> 00:07:07,879
you a blanket.

137
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:16,199
Speaker 3: If Utah doesn't beat BYU, if Kyle Whittingham loses three

138
00:07:16,319 --> 00:07:19,959
straight to BYU two, end his career, Let's say he

139
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,319
retires after this season, does that solely his legacy at

140
00:07:23,319 --> 00:07:24,079
all in your opinion?

141
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 1: No way. Look, he's a legend, just like coach Max,

142
00:07:28,759 --> 00:07:32,439
a legend. Coach Whittingham's done everything he's needed to and

143
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,600
then some. He's helped the state of Utah. He's put

144
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:36,560
Utah on the map.

145
00:07:37,199 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 2: Not at all.

146
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,759
Speaker 1: Whatever happens this year and frankly last year does not

147
00:07:42,519 --> 00:07:44,879
in my mind, does not change at all. Who Kyle

148
00:07:44,879 --> 00:07:45,560
Whittinggain is.

149
00:07:48,399 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 2: Love it, Timmy. We appreciate you.

Appreciate him A little college football segment getting into some

157
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,279
of the news and notes of the day in the

158
00:08:13,279 --> 00:08:16,639
college football world. Talking some of these topics related to

159
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:21,399
the rivalry. David Portnoy, by the way, Stool Presidente getting

160
00:08:21,399 --> 00:08:22,920
to know he's in Root, by the way, he's in

161
00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:28,920
route to Provo now Stool Presidente and Barstool Sports. He's

162
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:33,039
beginning to become familiar. I think the national media is

163
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:39,440
becoming familiar with the story of this particular rivalry game,

164
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:44,840
the stories, the crazies, the volatility, the violence of this

165
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:50,799
particular holy war. And as they get to know this

166
00:08:50,919 --> 00:08:54,120
rivalry game, I believe, I believe they will begin to uh,

167
00:08:54,919 --> 00:08:56,799
they will begin to revere it as one of the

168
00:08:56,799 --> 00:08:58,240
best rivalry.

169
00:08:57,799 --> 00:08:59,039
Speaker 2: Games in college football.

170
00:08:59,639 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 3: Thank goodness, BYU and Utah are in the same conference.

171
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:09,080
Thank goodness they're in the Big twelve right, Thank goodness

172
00:09:09,519 --> 00:09:13,879
they're in the power structure together. Now, it took too long.

173
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:19,200
When should it have occurred? Probably should have occurred, at

174
00:09:19,279 --> 00:09:22,720
least for BYU. They should have been included in the

175
00:09:22,759 --> 00:09:28,200
power structure, probably in the nineties, probably in the early nineties.

176
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:33,039
They had earned it through their football prominence in power

177
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:38,120
through the late seventies, early eighties and into the early nineties.

178
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,960
Speaker 2: They should have been included Utah.

179
00:09:42,279 --> 00:09:46,399
Speaker 3: They they kind of invested a little bit more aggressively

180
00:09:46,879 --> 00:09:47,919
in nineteen ninety.

181
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 2: When did they finally earn it?

182
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 3: They earned it probably when they got it two thousand

183
00:09:54,039 --> 00:09:58,159
and eight, twenty ten, two thousand and nine. Those were

184
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:00,519
the years, right that they earned it. They earned it

185
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,840
through the Urban Meyer era. They earned it.

186
00:10:02,799 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 2: Through the early era of Kyle Winningham.

187
00:10:07,799 --> 00:10:11,679
Speaker 3: But now it's great, right, Yes, it took a little

188
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:15,000
bit too long, longer than I would have expected, but

189
00:10:15,159 --> 00:10:16,879
now they're in the same conference.

190
00:10:18,519 --> 00:10:21,519
Speaker 2: Do you, as Cougar fans believe that this.

191
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:27,720
