Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll I've been being told that like I started

YouTube dot com Slash one of four five ESPN, where
you can also hop up in the byey Ford YouTube chat.
Then one saying Pelly, Pelly, Pelly rocket everywhere the try.
The Pelicans actually won a game. Guys broke a nine
game losing streak. Now losers have only fifteen of their
last seventeen instead of fifteen sixteen.
Speaker 5: Hey herb Joe right now, Okay, yep, come back starts now.
Speaker 2: Nowhere to go but up. It's like go go Homa State, right,
Alan Bowman, their quarterback just got to prove for an
eighth year and he's expected to return to Oklahoma State,
and you Cowboy fans may be bitterly disappointed because Gundhy's back,
Bowman's back and they just put together an OH to
nine Big twelve season once it lost nine games in
a row. But hey, nowhere to go but up for
Bowman and co. What the hell happened? Olli Gordon? Where
is he? Dude? He didn't on him, don't have anything else.
He was a literal cheat code on the video game.
He was the off season Darling, supposed to be the guy,
and I think Ashton Gent just stole all of his
juice straight monstar style, stole his stole his skill set.
Elans are very proud of you everybody. Hey, hey guys,
here here's the deal. Listen, this is how I try
to operate in this life. Let the praise be as
loud as the hate was, you know, let let let
the credit be as vociferous as the criticism. So if
you are someone who was talking that ish, go ahead
and praise that bitch. You know what I'm saying. I'm
glad how that came together. Actually, it's the freestyle, Little
Friday freestyle to get the showted today, No Jay kesterday.
He is out on assignment covering the SEC Championship. Of course,
you know he does off campus on CHERI Sex in
mayby four, which means he'll be covering much of college
football for the next few Fridays, nor River Chewy today either.
So it's just going to be me and the youngins here,
Me and the me and Landrea Taylor. But we got
a really good show playing for you. How about this?
How about this? Before we get the show started, I
watched That's why I got my Star Wars shirt onto.
I watched a new Star Wars show last night, the
first episode, Skeldon Crew. And if you are well, I
would say if you are my age. But that's another
really important thing. If you grew up and you love
of Steven Spielberg movies, think especially the ones like or
Not Not, especially like the ones with kids right, like
Goonies et Jurassic Park. You know that the same vibes
that Stranger Things sought to evoke. If you're a fan
of that and you're a fan of Star Wars, you
should watch Celtic Crew. Oh my gosh, it's so good, dude.
It's so. I watched the first episode of Kids last night,
and I don't want to be painfully clear about that.
I think I would have really liked it on my
own anyway. But you know, I made like kind of
a big deal about because I knew it was a
kid show. It's like made to watch with kids. Uh,
But so I kind of hyped my daughters up on
it all day and then we were locked in and
they had so much fun watching it. And it really
is an incredible execution in ama homage to that that
kind of era and that style of filmmaking. And it
does that wonderful thing that A Stranger Thing did and
that those great Spielberg movies do, whereas you put these
kids in really intense, like kind of like crazy situations,
but they just it's an adventure and they're rolling, you know,
they're just going for it. They're not overwhelming and overall
and there's darkness there. It's not overly saccharine. It's not
overly cloying, overly precious. Tweet God, I loved it. I
gonna wait for episode two. Uh tonight, You're gonna watch
it tonight. So yeah, uh, Disney killsbuddy. We don't need that,
not this morning. Bre Okay, it's Friday. We're feeling good.
Just signed the top ten class in the entire country.
Women's basketball coming up with a massive overtime, gritty ass
comeback win over the Stanford Cardinal were going on a
weekend in which we got cold December weather, championship games
all Saturday, which will break down and talk about today.
We've got a championship pomp too, parlay to get together.
Unfortunately we have Tay Taye's NFL Story of the day day.
But besides that, everything else seems pretty good. From Rice
said easy, So why don't you turn that round upside down?
And you're ready to have some fun here on this Friday.
Let's go ahead and goodness stick started.
Speaker 1: It's time to get to work courtesy of Tiger Labor
and Staffing, where they can help take care of screening, training,
payroll and more.
Speaker 6: Now for starters with the shortest waiting period in the industry,
Tiger Labor saving makes it easy to transfer top talent
onder your payroll quickly.
Speaker 2: Tire Labor personally vents your workforce to solve all your
staff he needs with a short or long term. I
remember it's not just forting resumes to you, but interviewing
dispatching in person every morning at five a m. So,
have you got no shows anything like that? Hit up
Tiger Labor and staff in Yeah. So, uh, we'll get
to So here's what we're rene mace Toe. Then we'll
get to the the women's game last night. Mason Taylor
entering the NFL Draft not too much of a surprise here. Obviously,
there was some hope that he would be one of
the players you could retain. I know that was definitely
a priority for LSU. I mean, you think about this year,
and I don't know that there was a bigger safety
blanket or bigger outlet for Garrett Nussmeyer when you had
to have it. It seemed like Mason Taylor was consistently
on the receiving end of that play. And even before
we knew this news yesterday, we talked about how that
was a position that was already pretty thin. Yeah, you
got a couple of nice receivers and trade As Green
and Camorian Pimpton, but even they started to play more
of a receiver role as the year went on. You're
still lacking that kind of true yackle tackle whatever, you know,
a true tight end. Mason Taylor was like a tight
end where the thumb was put on the scale and
the receiving side of the equation. But he was still
the closest thing you had to a traditional tight end.
So this is a big loss in more ways than one.
You lose a leader, you lose one of your most
productive players, in fact, the most productive tight end in
Lshue School history, which is kind of crazy to think about,
and so replacing him is going to be very hard,
especially because that was prob I mean, you get Lafleur
out of the recruiting class, but you never have to
rely on a true freshman. Though, to be fair, Mason
Taylor came on as a true freshman. That's when he
started to write his Lesgond and so that's gonna be
one of the top priorities heading into this transfer portal
era or era not era. But this transfer portal window
is going to be probably one, maybe even two tight
end right now. You can also go out there and
look for a guy that's maybe more past catching if
you want, or you can just try to go get
a couple of Ackles Taylor. Have you seen any names
out there yet on the tight end front.
Speaker 5: Not as far as like this is an obvious take,
like you have to bring this guy in. I mean
maybe the guy with the most production like this is
this is being serious. Carson Kent from Kennesall State two
hundred and seventeen yards three touchdowns last year, and there's
not a ton Zach Adkins is in the portal. He
had a solid year, but he played it Northwest Missouri State,
so he would be jumping up a huge level of competition.
There's just not a ton of big time names right
now at the tight end spot.
Speaker 2: Uh. Sounds like we need to get to some tampering.
So go ahead, if you're LSU and start putting some
floaters out there. Find which tight ends you may be
recruited in high school that are a bit discontented. Who
can you start to pry loose? Who knows you may
not be able to get it for a spring. This
might be a situation where you gotta go back into
the spring portal after somebody figure outs out they're not
going to play. You Know what I will say, though,
is that I'm still allowing we should still allow room
for trade as Green and co More and Pimpton to
continue to develop holistically as tight ends like we do
pigeonhole them as just pass catchers. And it's not hard
to see why, right Their bodies are incredible. They're a
complete mismatch in that regard, and they have very natural
soft hands, but like there is a world out there
where yeah, they keep practicing. Now, unfortunately for them, it's
gonna be with a third tight end coach, third year
in a row, as Slay nagels out. So that's gonna
be very important to who do you hire? Can you
hire someone? Actually, to be fair, that's just as important
as who you're gonna bring in player wise, look at
the impact that the coaching changes had on this LSU defense.
Last year, Bo Davis had an interior defensive line that
was markedly less talented, playing significantly better than what you
had last year. Kevin Peeples took some edges that were
all talented, but made them significantly better than they were
last year. Corey Raymond in the corners, I mean, the
list goes on and on, like Baker and Limick, whatever
you get it. Uh So, in that same way, you
bring in a good tight end coach, or maybe you
have a guy on stuff I don't know, and maybe
those guys develop a bit more than we're giving them
credit for, and then there isn't as much pressure to
be pigeonholed, to have to go get someone out of
the port. I see that. I still think you will.
But I think it's a combination of those factors. Who
do you hire, how do the pimped in and Green
and even laflur coming in? You know, how do these
guys develop? What role can they play? And then and
can you bring in another body or two? Uh in
the end. Though, Mason Taylor, it's funny because like he
was not here at a time when else you won
a ton of games. But I think I think, I
think he goes out as a bit of a fan favorite.
He will be remembered a lot of big catches gotta
have it moments, but of course none bigger than when
he was a true freshman in Tiger Stadium, two point
conversion to beat Alabama to go to Atlanta. It's one
of those moments that like that is it's very rare.
If you're not a part of a championship team, it's
rare that you can do something that will really stand
the test of time and be remembered like that play
will be remembered pretty much forever. That a highlight will
be shown in packages before games forever. So shout out
to Mason Taylor and best of luck in the NFL.
And you know, I hear soby he can go make
that money that maybe he wasn't because he was probably
a bit underpaid here at l she Woit sounds funny,
so best of luck to him in the league. All right,
when we get back here, off a bit, let's talk
about the big time basketball win last night in the
p mac LSU women refusing to give up. You're be
locked right here on off the bench. After bench, go

of Van Rooge dot com. But the baby it's cold outside.
Speaker 7: But baby, it's cold outside.
Speaker 2: Ben hobn that you dropping. I'll hold your hands the.
Speaker 1: Just like guys, Welcome in to the best morning sports
this show around off the Bench with Hester and t Bob.
Speaker 2: What was that in, y'all? Welcome back OTB A hell
of a game in the PMAC last night on ESPN
two SC A CC challenge going down and two of
the greatest women's basketball franchises brands of all time. When
you're talking about LSU and Stanford House, Stafford's not ranked.
They were seven to one entering last night. No town there,
I have no idea needed to coach Molki. She was
talking about after the game, but man, you want to
talk about a team that shows grit, fight resilience. So
Els Rands are winning ninety four to eighty eight and
ot to improve to ten and zero. They led for
I think all of fifteen seconds in regulation. In fact,
I was speaking of donuts at Lee's today and I
was talking your owner in him and'sonna go to everything,
And they were at the game and they said that
they were about to leave, and then like a shot
or two was made, you know, because they're still down
big with like seven eight minutes ago. Like okay, okay,
well we'll stay, but not everybody stayed. And guys, just
so you know, coach Moulky's well aware. Did you notice
that a lot of people left the game.
Speaker 6: I did.
Speaker 8: I won't see them in church Sunday because I'll be gone,
but I'll catch them next Sunday. I saw it, sure did.
We were down I think seven with about a minute
and something to go. Some of them turned back around.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, once I saw them walking out, I
was like, okay, maybe they don't wear.
Speaker 8: The fans, like, let me be the bad guy. I
saw who they were.
Speaker 2: Coach Mogo was on fire in her press conference last night.
If you don't watch or listen to the coach press conferences,
I just can't recommend it enough. Like I could listen
to that woman talk ball for hours, the detail that
she goes into with why she arrives at the decisions
that they did. Like if you watched last night's game,
for a lot of times think, oh my gosh, the
Stanford defense really styming the LSU offense. That wasn't really
the problem. It was more LSU on the defensive side
of the ball could not handle Stanford's cutting their their
kind of positionless asketball. They struggled to adjust, and then
coach Molki, being a great coach, had to do something
that she's very uncomfortable with. She had to go small,
which even she said out the game she didn't want
to do it. They don't practice it a lot. They
had to go small. And then when you go small,
she was talking about how well, and then it's interesting
because it kind of limits what you can call because
we don't practice it a lot. So we have to
keep things simple. If you try to do something that
you don't do normally, then you overcomplicate it. That's a
recipefore disaster. She's talking about the final timeout call right
using her finals ab out very early but knowing they
needed to score, feeling her team felt exhausted, Call time out,
get your breath, make a shot. It happens, and even
she says, like, all these decisions don't normally Yeah, you know,
they don't always work out. But this is my thinking
going in to how we managed to adjust and win
this game, Like it's impossible to listen to this woman
talk and not realize that you have one of the
best to ever do it. You have Nick Saban, Kim Moulkey,
And uh it was. It was a fantastic game. And
how about this is l shut you want to say
about toughness? This LSHU team has now won two of
its last four gamesites trailing, trailing by double digits. There
is no quit in this team. And Mikaela Williams was
absolutely fantastic last night. Uh thirty what did mckaelan with
thirty two thirty two points for McHale last night twelve eighteen,
five of nine from three. But the surprise of the
season thus far maybe seems to be Kaitlyn Gilbert, who Uh,
that was one of the funnier moments of the press conference.
I was like, Kaylin talked about you know, and now
coach Moulkey's trusting me more, and I kind of looked
over at her. But yeah, Kaitlin Gilbert, not a lot
of expectation entering the year. Continues to get better and
better and better. Excellent mid ring shot last night goes
nine to twelve, thirty four minutes, twenty five points, critical
in creating that win, and of course fla je Didflage
eight things and and think about flag she is. Yes, offensively,
she's been so much better this year and last night
not the most efficient night, eight for twenty but still
twenty one points, exists three rebounds, but again, defensively, Flage
remains a superstar. You don't know how they forced to overtime.
It's because Flage came up with stop right. So just
a massively tough and good, hard fought win for LSU
last night, doing what championship teams do. I know I
overused this, so I apologize, but it is that old
Bruce Lee quote, right. I always think about a great team.
A great roster can win in more ways than one. Okay,
they can adapt to the situation at hand. Bruce Lee says,
be like water. What does water do? It takes the
shape of the container. Well, the shape of last night's
game dictated a smaller ball lineup, something you're uncomfortable with.
Remember you talking about the David Bowie quote yesterday, Right,
Sometimes you gotta get down the water a little bit
where you can barely touch, and when you're a little scared,
Look couple, that's when something exciting can happen. And that's
what happened last night. Taite. What do you think about
Anna Landra as well? If you got any thoughts, what
dy'll think about last night's game?
Speaker 5: I think, did Mikayla Williams need to take twenty shots
every single game?
Speaker 2: I said this last year and I believe it this year.
Speaker 5: As far as all around player, I think Mikayla Williams
is the best player on this team. I thought she
was the best player on last year's team. And you
know you're you're seeing her coming to her own. She
started really, really slow this year. I mean it was
basically all flanges. She had to carry the load offensively.
You can't do that when it comes to tournament play
against top teams like Stanford, you need that second, that
third option. Caitlyn Gilbert you mentioned like just been such
a star coming off that bench, and look, I know
coach Molki didn't like to do it, but I mean, guys,
as far as talent, that small lineup might actually be
able to Shoe's best lineup because the one they ran yesterday,
Anissa Mari and Mikayla Williams are basically your big Yeah
if you will on the court, and Marrow can do it,
she had to do it a lot last year whenever
injuries got in the foul trouble.
Speaker 2: By sixteen boards tomorrow, yeah, I mean that that might
be your best lineup. Yeah. Ironically as well, when they
went small, they started to do better on the boards,
which seems counterintuitive, but because of spacing it created, it
allowed els you more opportunity there. What's up a lot
just so you move that mic over.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I think what's impressive to me is like you just
don't like, you don't have just MICHAELA. Williams scoring thirty
two points, because you also have Flage scoring twenty one
and then Caitlin off the bench twenty five points, which
she had all the bench points that night.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and thirty four minutes actually true, Literally I didn't
even notice that, literally all of them.
Speaker 3: So it's not like you have just Flage or just Mikayla,
Like you have a lot of people on this team
that can contribute in really big ways.
Speaker 2: Yeah. And again, the word I keep going back to
is toughness because with how that game had gone, just struggling, grinding,
kind of teeth pulling all night long, it would have been.
Oh and also Stanford just shooting the absolute lights out.
I mean, what what were they that I can't remember?
The first half three point percentage was like something insane.
Not now, credit ELS's defense. They got it together at
the end of the game. But but it would have
been very easy to roll over kind of throw your
hands up and to you know, it's just not our night.
Speaker 5: Uh.
Speaker 2: But they refuse to. They refuse to and and and
I loved hearing the uh the players describe the intensity
of every single huddle, that every single huddle, everybody's locked
all the way the hell in. Oh that's the answer.
I want to launch like that. I couldn't remember during
the commercial break. Uh, get me the one and we'll
play it later because it's just an evergreen quote. But
give me the one where Coach Molky's talking about being
a passive coach and now as you can't imagine being
a passive coach, right, and that she's intense with these
players because they're they're they're you know, and then they're
intense back and that's good. But yeah, hearing the the
the description the intensity of every single huddle and how
locked in everyone was last night and then using that
intensity to lock in and find a way to win
that game just awesome, right now? Oh you have it? Okay, Yeah,
here it is.
Speaker 4: The huddles were very intense. Every single one of them
was very, very intense.
Speaker 3: But I feel like we all had our focus and
we were all locked in on coach Moki was saying
and just going into the game executing what she was
saying in the huddles.
Speaker 8: The thing about this game is we are intents in there.
You don't take anything personal. These kids belong to me
and I belong to them. We chose each other, and
I'm not the only one that gets up in them
and challenges them. And I could never imagine being a
passive coach. I could never imagine playing for a passive coach,
because I tend to think kids are a reflection of
the coaching staff and we're not gonna give up on them.
And they just they played. They played to the ran
out and that's basically how you won the game.
Speaker 2: Oh I mean, are you telling me you woant to
run through a brick wall for that woman? They chose
me and I chose them, Like, screw all, y'all. Y'all
think I'm too hard. I think I'm too old school.
Get the hell out of here. Okay, me and my team,
we know how we move, and we move with intensity.
We drive one another to try to be our best.
Can't imagine being a passive coach. God, I love that
woman again. She could coach any sport and be successful,
like obviously basketball. You know she has a depth of
strategic knowledge, but in terms of just like she could
be a CEO, she could be whatever. That's just a
leader of men and women. Coach Kim Molkia is. Last
night so hell of a win by the Tigers. Shout
out to everyone who went, Shout out to everyone who stayed. Again,
you know, I get it. If you left, it's it's
happened to everybody at one point or not in their
sporting career. They've you know, given up on something that
looked dead and a it comes back. But it's okay.
It's okay, even though you might if you do, indeed
go to church with coach and she knows that you're there.
Like if you know you're gonna run intoor, you may
have some tough questions to answer. Maybe you got young
kids and you can use the evergreen excuse of babysitter, right,
I mean that that's that's that's a golden goose that
continues to lay eggs. You're late for something. Oh my
babysitter was late in getting there. Uh, you gotta go home.
Oh my babysitter call, they gotta get home. Uh, you
don't even maybe have a BABYSITTERU. It's it's, it's it's
it's a heavy play. Shout out to the lu Wims
basketball team. All right, coming up next, Uh, let's talk
a little Saints as they get ready to have a
mid off on Sunday in the meadowlands. Uh, keep it
locked right here on o TV.
Speaker 7: Off the bench.

I don't want to talk about how much money I
lost on Hawk to a coin.
Speaker 2: Okay, everything that Haley touches turns to gold. I thought
her mean coin is gonna be no different. Let's just say,

it into hawk to a coin because we're gonna buy
the dip. We're gonna buy the dip and then and
then we'll both make more money, and then we can

and then you're still gonna give me that money just
because you're very nice. Trust me, this is a this
is a great financial plan.

let let's let's just call it like it is and say, hey,
you want to scam some people, join us because the
first few of you that join the scam will also win.
Speaker 4: Yeah exactly, but a lot of you might not under
the wire.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but but yeah to the moon, to the moon,
exactly right now, otb coin to the moon, easy, easy, easy.
Speaker 3: I'll put in the buy you for YouTube chat. You
can just send all your money to me. I'll take
care of it.
Speaker 2: You really should actually venmo Alandra money though, because this
car stuff is absolutely ridiculous. Launch's car got totaled in
a hit and run. And of course, because the insurance
companies just suck, yeah, they're like nah, no, nothing, like
what what do I pay you year round for? I
don't know, you know.
Speaker 4: I mean also like, maybe don't hit a car and
keep going?
Speaker 2: Uh well yeah, no, no to be clear that person's
the original pos Yeah. But these insurance companies that we
pay all the time and then when you need them,
you have to battle them to get what you deserve.
It's just the height of absurdity.
Speaker 5: It's like our commercial a billion dollar insurance companies delay
and deny valid claims, guys, because that's how they got
to be Why.
Speaker 2: Did old boy they just assassinated dude, right, delay, deny
and uh I care. It's the title of a book
about how the entire assurance insurance companies are insurance business
and giant fraud. But he literally wrote that on the
bullet casings Like yeah, so whatever.
Speaker 3: So but also, you know what I was thinking about, Like,
you know how we're kind of struggling in the nil
game right now and we kind of like we need
big donations, yeah to get this football, so you can
pay some players. I'm thinking, like, why don't I take
one for the team. Okay, Yeah, start like a feat
like tailor's been saying, start like.
Speaker 5: A finder, you finders say, big website guys, it's a
legitimate business.
Speaker 4: Sell pictures of my feet.
Speaker 3: Ye, give like fifty percent of the profit to taff
Why don't you go ahead and or buy you traditions.
Speaker 2: Why don't you go ahead and send me some pics
of those toesies? Okay, and I can start to judge.
Uh well, well I can. I can help you in
terms of getting your feet ready for the stake poses.
Maybe some cutical work potition could be needed. Lighting's key.
You gotta back light it, yea, yeah, I got I
got plenty of lighting. I got plenty of lighting. Yeah,
just go ahead and start sending me pictures of your feet.
Speaking of an I L. Taylor, I want you to
as well, Yeah, because there's uh an untapped market here.
Too often we just assume that people only want female feed.
So if you could do that as well, that would
be great. That's fun. I'm good. We got a lot
of money making schemes going on right now, guys. Speaking
of n I L. Yeah, so you you were you
were telling me that you were wondering, Uh, how could
I rot my brain a little bit here to help
myself go to this wonderful Thursday night.
Speaker 4: And of course the.
Speaker 5: Only answer was log onto tiger droppings and read the
tiger ranty.
Speaker 2: What's gonna What's gonna? Put you in a calming mental state?
Speaker 5: More than that, the ultim don't worry guys, because uh,
somebody figured out how LSU can uh increase their nil
feet meanfully, somebody said we need to send a jersey
and make an honorary fan out of Elon Musk.
Speaker 2: I mean, I do not hate the Elon Musk pitch.
I don't think he'll give a damn.
Speaker 5: I think surely you send Elon Musk and LSU jersey.
He's sending donations. That's the only response.
Speaker 2: So I think conceptually they're moving in the right direction. Okay,
but uh look throughout okay. So like, okay, I opened
this morning talk about how much I loved that show
Skelton Crew. That just what did Skeleen Skeldon Crew do?
Now you have to execute everything lies to the excution.
But it took a a kind of concept and style
that we know works. Okay, and they execute at a
very high level. Uh, well, how did Larry how did
Michigan do it? They got a thirty three year old
Asian woman to become his secret fifth wife and convince
him to buy Bryce Underwood. So we need to Gideon
Musk married to an L shoe girl?
Speaker 4: Landra, are you down and I'm only twenty six.
Speaker 2: Are you into it?
Speaker 4: Okay? Yes, because I would do it for the money.
Speaker 2: How do you feel about cyber trucks.
Speaker 4: I don't love them.
Speaker 2: It's like a five.
Speaker 4: Rumber one player in the country.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you gotta take it. I mean, but I don't know.
Can we trust a Landra though, because what if she
pulls a classic Texas switch up once she's in Oh,
she would for sure. We can't like no offense. We
just don't land We're gonna have to. That's what's it called.
She's ad a compromise position. We just can't do it.
Speaker 4: It's just not true.
Speaker 2: Uh And and for the record, hr, she volunteered, okay.
And I did not push her towards I put her
into Chris music. I did not push her into being
Elon's uh in il prostitute. Okay, she volunteered for that,
thank you very much. So so again, Tiger droppings not
a bad idea. I just need a workshop and the
plannings off a little bit. Yes, that's that's its for sure.
I will say. It is funny to me. Did you
see the clip of oh Salomon Thomas? Did you see
Solomon Thomas talking to the local media yesterday how he
ended his interview because it's funny because like coach Kelly's
out there kind of lamenting that you know, LSU got
players bought away from them at the at the last minute,
and Salmon Thomas ended his interview literally saying, I wish
it could have gone to Florida State. Yeah, yeah, like
not like not like in like but just kind of
like it was just a funny, very real acknowledgment of
like the money. Obviously they had money to spend out.
She had some money freed up, so they came in.
I guess it the bigger offer. Like that's how I interpreted. Also,
I mean, to be fair, at Florida Say didn't have
an on line coach. He loved Alex Atkins, who was
their OCEO line coach. They fired him, got rid of him.
Brad Davis is an excellent recruiter, excellent a line coach,
so those are big advantages. But you know, the bag
came in as well. So I think he's not saying
just because of the money. I think he said it's
a combination of things, but yeah, basically like, yeah, I
wish you could it on Florida, say, but it's just
I yeah, I can't like yet, so like you know,
you're doing the same thing. To be clear, when you can,
you're doing the same thing.
Speaker 5: I saw something yesterday, So Florida States recruiting class dropped
all the way to like a mid fifties or something.
Just oh my god, they went one in ten and
you know they had all them. If you take just
their decommitments from their class, it would be ranked higher
than their current class.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I again, I hate to say it, but
we said at the time grievous wound where they suffered
last year is one of those experiences that can break
an entire Uh. It could just break an entire program,
and you're seeing it right now. All right, Actually, let's
do this when we get back. Let's go ahead and
talk signing day wrap up from a national standpoint, uh,
and then we'll start hour two breaking down Saints Giants.
Keep it locked right here on off the bench.
Speaker 7: Off the bench, it's beginning to look a lot live Christmas.
Speaker 2: Every where you go. Take a look in at five
and listening once again.
Speaker 8: Back to sports talk.
Speaker 2: Maybe off the bench, Alandra, you truly do know me,
because I have to tell you, tell simpatica. We are,
but I specifically wanted very classic croonery Christmas music when
you know, in this cold December sixth morning, and you
could not be making me any happier right now, I know,
I know, And that's the problem because it probably feels
like people are taking advantage of you at times, you know,
but you're gonna win in the end. You know, doing
the right thing is never wrong, remember that, kids, But
sometimes doing the wrong thing can feel right. No, that's
not that's not just kidding. That's not good advice. Doing
the right thing is never wrong is probably better. Yeah,
I would. Yeah, Yeah, let's let's just let's just let's
just leave it there. Yes, Daniel, everybody the Raglan laundry. Yes,
exactly like we said. If you talked that ish, it's
time to praise that bitch.
Speaker 7: Oh.
Speaker 2: Also, we did change our plan on which billionaire we're
gonna pursue. Elon's got a lot going on. He's now
attempted to completely uh rework the US government. So I
don't think. I don't think we're gonna be able to
break through a.
Speaker 4: Million children.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's way too many children, So he doesn't really,
he's not gonna really care for his kids like you
didn't care. We can't go bezos because Taylor and him
already have way too much beef. Can't do it. Jeff
knows it. I expect all of Taylor's christ presidents to
not be delivered. But Meta just invested in Monroe, right, Yeah,
which we love to see. Hell yes, due love to
see business jobs come to louis So Meta's nobody what
like a giant what in Monroe? Giants something?
Speaker 4: It's something. I don't know exactly what it is. If
you give me like two seconds, we can.
Speaker 2: Google this and you think, and you think, and you think.
Mark Zuckerberg's you know, probably the hottest one of.
Speaker 4: The bunch, the hottest one of the bunch, even.
Speaker 2: Though that one picture was a little AI.
Speaker 3: We learned, So we learned that we can make him
that if we want to, like a data center in Monroe. Oh,
a data center, yeah, with five hundred jobs in northeast Louisiana.
Speaker 4: Hell yeah, ten billion dollar data cents.
Speaker 2: Damn.
Speaker 4: So what is a data center?
Speaker 3: Though?
Speaker 2: It's a center that holds like data? Yeah, talking out
my ass, But I mean, you know, I that's how
Meta and all these companies through the years have started
to make so much money, even though it's probably gone
way beyond this. This used to be like, I feel
like half a decade or a decade ago, we kind
of woke up and we're like, oh, wait a second.
These companies that are like putting cookies on us and
that want our email or our phone, Like that's what
they're doing, is just selling everything that we're doing so
they could better understand how humans move and operate and
better monetize it.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So I mean to me, that's always like data has
meant Now, I mean, he's a cloudser I have.
Speaker 4: No idea anyway, Zuck is the new target.
Speaker 2: Chris Ter Elson's those jobs won't go to locals. I
mean hopefully they will, you know, hopefully if you're at
college grad now, maybe you won't leave the state. Maybe
you'll be able to go get a job up there.
Either way, we are going to try to pimp Otal
Laundreta Zuckerberg, not Bezos and not Elon Bro if we
get the win win. Yeah, because he likes UFC.
Speaker 4: You're right right, I could be like ringside of these things.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you better not screw it up. And like
when he has one of his like hot boy, actual
USC guys in there. Stay focused, Okay, stay focused. You're
there for Zuck and Zuck alone. We don't need you
getting all the way there and then blowing it.
Speaker 5: Actually, I don't think. I don't think Zuck would care.
I mean, you know his nickname.
Speaker 2: Uh what Zuck.
Speaker 6: Is that?
Speaker 2: Are you making this up? Is that's not really? I
don't think anybody. I mean people people are talking. Okay,
I see I see now from chat? Uh who said that?
Is that? Is that a known thing? Am I like
missing out on? Literally literally just made up? Okay?
Speaker 5: I was gonna say, because Ava's right there with you,
so you know what that might be. Well, I mean
that's obvious for the name, but I don't know. It
might be people are talking Chris Lany with chest meat
like that. You tell me to you have kind of bag.
Billionaire Kylie Jenner.
Speaker 2: I'm married, man. I can't. I can't do it. Otherwise
I would, I'd put it on for the city. But
if you wanted to, I could have wanted to. Yes, exactly,
thank you too, but I can't. I'm very happily Mary. Okay.
So recruiting rankings, here's the on three industry recruit rankings
from making team standpoint uh number one Texas, which aren't
you just so happy? Oh, I've had my number one
recruiting class wrapped safely under the tree. That's like how
I feel about Texas. Usually I don't. I don't Texas
like you do. They do give off a big ted
five like the snobby little kid. That's a n M.
Speaker 5: They want to beat Ted. That's that's a literally Texas
and Texas.
Speaker 2: A and m uh. At least so they beat Alabama,
which I love seeing Alabama not finished when Alabama comes
into two, Oregon three, Georgia four, Ohio State five, Michigan six. Bro,
you want to talk about a month Michigan's season was
completely lost in garbage, and then in a month they
get the number one player in the country. They beat
Ohio State. Their recruit class climbs to six in the nation,
multiple five stars, like everything is coming up Michigan since
Karen Zoo got involved. Number seven Auburn eight LSU. Impressive
for Auburn to be up there, but now they got
to prove they gotta go win some eight LSU again.
Top ten classicants are good nine A and M ten Tennessee. Impressive. Couse,
Tennessee's spending a lot right now, and you beat him.
How about Florida? Speaking of teams taking advantage of a
minimum of Florida coming in at eleven Notre Dame twelve,
you love beating Notre Dame. Miami thirteen. I thought they'd
be higher. I thought they'd be higher. Maybe a little
shine off of crystal ball. Miami's number one thing is
just trying to get another quarterback. Right. They're gonna go
all in on the portal this offseason. USC fourteen, Oh
Miss fifteen. Actually that's good for all Miss. Normally I
feel like they're a bit lower than that, but extended
winning will do that. Starting to attract a bit more
talent of the high school range Penn State sixteen, and
then to show you that expectations actually determine how you
feel about it. Oklahoma down to seventeen, second losing season Undervenables,
lost your starting quarterback start. That's what I say. Dealing
Gabriel leaves last year to for Jackson R. Jackson Arnold
now in the portal, leaving bad times there missoo at
eighteen South Carolina nineteen, Nebraska twenty Clempson twenty one. Another
team that's falling off hard wins. The last time you
sold Clemson at twenty one, Missippi State twenty two. How
about Georgia Tech at twenty three? Good for techt Here's
what crazy? So Missippi State is twenty second in the country,
You're like, oh, that's good. Right, Let's look at the
SEC teams. They're thirteen. There's twenty second in the country
at thirteenth in the SEC. It's a good, tough conference.
So good job. Well, let's shoot Saint Jot's Codo decks.
