3
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:09,039
news on the recruiting trail surrounding Cougar Athletics.

4
00:00:09,359 --> 00:00:11,000
Speaker 2: Welcome back to Cougar Sports here on one O, three

Speaker 2: We're here, Brett always bringing the hammer by my side,

Big Cram on the data aggregation. We're holding it down

9
00:00:18,719 --> 00:00:23,199
for the Halloween edition of Cougar Sports with Ben Crittle. Guys,

10
00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:26,199
please be safe as your trick or treating tonight. You

11
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:28,320
don't want to get injured. You don't want to get hurt.

12
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:31,359
I've seen it back at home. I remember people got

13
00:00:31,359 --> 00:00:34,359
trampled because of Kenny. There is this one place that

14
00:00:34,399 --> 00:00:38,039
everybody went was right off of Blackstone Avenue, right there

15
00:00:38,039 --> 00:00:39,960
in Hyde Park. It was about a ten to fifteen

16
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:42,159
minute walk for my place. My mom would take us

17
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:44,000
and other kids in the neighborhood, like a bunch of us,

18
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,159
like fifteen to twenty. We walk over there and you

19
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,000
go down the entire block and like dude, our bags

20
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,159
would be halfway full. And then we come back to

21
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,000
the neighborhood. We would start over there. I can't remember

22
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:54,320
so long ago, do the same thing. And then my

23
00:00:54,359 --> 00:00:57,320
mom delegated to me as I got older. Once I said, okay,

24
00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:59,520
I'm not gonna do Halloween anymore, which I really didn't

25
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:01,679
have friends do. All my friends on omissions when I

26
00:01:01,719 --> 00:01:03,439
was seventeen eighteen. So I think that's the biggest thing.

27
00:01:03,479 --> 00:01:05,159
People like Roy, you didn't do Halloween. No, I just

28
00:01:05,159 --> 00:01:08,799
didn't dress up and do those things. So I went

29
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,719
with my sister and took our friends and it was

30
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,400
still people got trampled. And another reason why people got trampled,

31
00:01:14,519 --> 00:01:16,680
Brett was there was this spider that was sitting a

32
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:18,920
tree and people didn't recognize that would drop on head.

33
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:21,200
It was a fake spider, but that will cause people

34
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,040
to get trampled. And you have this they would have

35
00:01:23,159 --> 00:01:25,359
like this mini haunted house in their yard where they

36
00:01:25,359 --> 00:01:26,799
get up and they would scare you. People went all

37
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:28,519
out of Chicago. So that's what I mean. You don't

38
00:01:28,519 --> 00:01:30,120
want to get hurt. You don't want to get trampled

39
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,799
over a piece of candy or people really buy into

40
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,000

that first cleaning. All right, let's get into it, starting

67
00:02:52,719 --> 00:02:56,680
with the bad news. The bad news is BYU has

68
00:02:56,719 --> 00:02:59,599
lost a commitment. There will be others, that's a part

69
00:02:59,599 --> 00:03:02,479
of this happens every single year, but this one might

70
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:06,680
hurt you because Cougarnation flipped this commitment from Syracuse to

71
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:10,919
BYU and now he's going elsewhere. That's right, BYU. Former

72
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:14,400
BYU commit Jackson gates. He gives his comments which already

73
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:18,840
here momentarily, and commit d commits from BYU to Missouri.

74
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,080
He sat on social media Missouri, I'm home. The six

75
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,120
foot one, one hundred and seventy five pounder dB from

76
00:03:25,199 --> 00:03:31,879
Damian High School in Lavert, Laverne, California, had initially committed

77
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:35,759
to Syracuse before decommitting and then committing to BYU. Jackson

78
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,680
was the number fifty six cornerback nationally and the number

79
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,800
forty eight player in California. He ran a sub ten

80
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,680
to four one hundred meters dash. That's super fast, man.

81
00:03:44,719 --> 00:03:47,000
You like that speed, especially if Evan Johnson or not

82
00:03:47,039 --> 00:03:49,520
the comeback, but I think he will. Els was recruited

83
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:53,360
by Utah, Michigan State, Mississippi State, and more. He talks

84
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,159
about him decommitting from BYU. This is what he had

85
00:03:56,199 --> 00:03:59,120
to say. I was committed to the Kougs for the

86
00:03:59,159 --> 00:04:02,199
Cups for a while talking about Syracuse. I just felt

87
00:04:02,199 --> 00:04:04,439
like I needed to decommit and give myself some time

88
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:06,560
to really see if it was a place for me.

89
00:04:06,919 --> 00:04:11,199
I decommitted shortly after my visit to BYU. Took a

90
00:04:11,199 --> 00:04:13,319
couple of weeks to come prepare all my visits, the

91
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,000
pros and the cons, all my offers, and BOU just

92
00:04:16,079 --> 00:04:19,279
made the most sense. I just knew the development I'm

93
00:04:19,319 --> 00:04:22,279
going to get from coach General Guildford, who's a phenomena coach.

94
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,399
Speaker 4: By the way, and the trajectory of the program.

95
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,199
Speaker 2: It was just a great place, and he says, I've

96
00:04:27,199 --> 00:04:30,800
been thinking about it for some time the decision. When

97
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,759
I went on my visit, I initially loved it. I

98
00:04:33,879 --> 00:04:36,279
just didn't want to make a rask decision on my visit.

99
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,160
I definitely had some thoughts about flipping on the visit.

100
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:41,800
I wanted some time to think about it, and I

101
00:04:41,879 --> 00:04:45,240
ultimately knew Miszoo was home. These are more comments on it,

102
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,800
just the development from Coach Pogue and the coach Drink

103
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:52,040
has done with the program. He's completely turned it around

104
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:56,000
from where he's gotten it, said Gates. Now to give

105
00:04:56,079 --> 00:04:58,639
my thoughts on this matter. The three star, by the way,

106
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,480
I want to say a star ranking. Look, kid, if

107
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:03,079
you wanted to give yourself more time, and I'm not

108
00:05:03,079 --> 00:05:04,720
trying to rip the kid, don't know the kid, not

109
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:06,040
saying the kid's bad, and I don't want it to

110
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,199
be interpreted that way. If you wanted to give yourself

111
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,120
more time, which is totally fine, don't make a rass decision.

112
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,160
And this is where I just invite the young people.

113
00:05:13,199 --> 00:05:17,360
Brett and what I'm inviting Drewsey to do. You're not

114
00:05:17,639 --> 00:05:21,279
you don't anybody excuse me a commitment. You don't. You

115
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,439
can decommit away. Now. I know at the time BYU

116
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:25,560
was probably the right place, he said, Missouri, But to

117
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:27,800
make it not look bad the way this is looking

118
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:29,639
to me as a whole. If I'm looking at this

119
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:33,759
as an individual, you're committed to Syracuse, ACC NOE BYU,

120
00:05:33,879 --> 00:05:37,600
Big twelve no Missouri sec Like to me, when I

121
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,839
look at this as a whole, that's how I'm viewing

122
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:46,439
it top to bottom. So I think, yes, you have

123
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:47,639
to make a decision as best for you at the

124
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:49,839
end of the day. But watching you flip back and forth,

125
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,399
I just want to say this to all recruits. Will

126
00:05:52,439 --> 00:05:54,360
you decommit if you feel that's what's best. You don't

127
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,360
need to go and commit to someone right away. And

128
00:05:56,399 --> 00:05:58,199
if you really do feel the way, that's fine. But

129
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,279
if you do commit from that place and you recommit again,

130
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,160
that's a lot of flip flopping and hobblin And it

131
00:06:03,199 --> 00:06:05,360
could look like that maybe you're chasing a dollar dollar bill.

132
00:06:05,399 --> 00:06:06,600
Speaker 3: In this day and age, I.

133
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:10,240
Speaker 4: Think the hard part is that we're asking we're asking

134
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:14,759
kids to make adult decisions. Yeah, in the context of

135
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,079
there are adults who, for lack of a better phrase,

136
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,720
are trying to take advantage of you by showing you

137
00:06:20,759 --> 00:06:23,879
a flashy thing so that they can pick up your talent.

138
00:06:24,399 --> 00:06:30,439
And so look, does it look odd when you de

139
00:06:30,519 --> 00:06:33,720
commit from Syracuse and then you flip to BYU and

140
00:06:33,759 --> 00:06:37,680
then you de commit from THEOU and you flip to Missouri. Yeah.

141
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,959
But I also think part of that is maybe we

142
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,240
need to get rid of the word commit or change

143
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:47,879
it to something else, because it's more of an intention,

144
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:52,759
not necessarily a commitment. Because to me, a commitment is

145
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:57,000
more I don't want to say contractual, but it feels

146
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,439
a little bit more obligatory, and it feels a little

147
00:06:59,439 --> 00:07:02,839
more solid than what we have in this current world.

148
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:07,560
But also, again, like going back to what I said

149
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:11,319
at the very beginning, we're asking kids to make adult decisions.

150
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:16,399
And when you have a guy like Jackson Gates, obviously

151
00:07:16,399 --> 00:07:17,839
there's a lot of people who want you. I think

152
00:07:17,879 --> 00:07:21,120
to your point, you got to understand, like just because

153
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,000
they want you doesn't mean you owe them anything. You

154
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:27,519
don't have to give them a commitment, however, and so

155
00:07:28,279 --> 00:07:31,120
you can sit there and make whatever choice you want. However,

156
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:35,519
as soon as you commit, then you decommit. Then you commit,

157
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:39,079
then you decommit again. Now you have kind of given

158
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:44,079
yourself up to be scrutinized and say, Okay, you did

159
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:48,040
it once, fine, now you're doing it twice. Now, the

160
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,360
word commitment doesn't really mean a whole lot, because then

161
00:07:51,439 --> 00:07:53,120
I have to ask the question is it going to

162
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,600
happen again? At the end of the day. Happy for

163
00:07:55,759 --> 00:08:00,519
Jackson Gates. I'm hopeful that wherever he lands somewhere that

164
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,720
he wants to be. But it's just a I think it's,

165
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:07,519
unfortunately ron just a product of the world that we

166
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:13,079
live in where people's word doesn't mean as much. And

167
00:08:13,079 --> 00:08:15,639
that's not a shot at the kid, that's a shot

168
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,800
at the environment that we live in. The coaches are

169
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:22,959
always leaving, players are constantly transferring, and so when you

170
00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:26,000
see something like this, it's kind of just par for

171
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:26,600
the course.

172
00:08:27,399 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, Hey, I like that you brought up your word

173
00:08:29,759 --> 00:08:32,480
about Okay, well, what do we do.

174
00:08:35,039 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 3: You know.

175
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,159
Speaker 2: In changing maybe the word, because I do think the

176
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:44,000
decommitting and recommitting and decommitting and recommitting can have some

177
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,120
negative connotations with it. I know that kids aren't intentially

178
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,159
trying to do that. I don't think anyone in these

179
00:08:49,159 --> 00:08:51,480
are kids making very important decisions.

180
00:08:51,519 --> 00:08:52,519
Speaker 3: So what's a better way?

181
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,919
Speaker 2: And that's why I said, Hey, that's why I said

182
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:56,279
what I said to be in the beginning. You're not

183
00:08:56,360 --> 00:09:01,120
obligated to commit to anybody after you decommitted, you feel

184
00:09:01,159 --> 00:09:03,360
like that's the whole give yourself some time, make the

185
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,960
best decision as you meant like, that's totally okay. I

186
00:09:06,039 --> 00:09:09,120
really think that you should and it goes well because

187
00:09:09,159 --> 00:09:11,279
those that commit early for the most part to their

188
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:14,240
schools that we've seen, especially BAU commit it's been that

189
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:18,720
way and you've seen that. So again, this is a

190
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,519
tough part. And if you know that you're gonna get

191
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:25,120
offers later, that's totally okay. But most kids did you

192
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,879
see commit to BYU for the most part, stay there.

193
00:09:28,919 --> 00:09:30,720
They do, receiver the visits, they do take other ovs,

194
00:09:30,759 --> 00:09:32,399
and you should always keep every door open one hundred

195
00:09:32,399 --> 00:09:36,200
percent because coaching staffs could change in a year. You

196
00:09:36,279 --> 00:09:38,240
commit to a certain coach. This is not the NFL.

197
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,039
This is not where everybody's getting paid. You know, they're

198
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,360
fair share and have an agent that can go in

199
00:09:43,399 --> 00:09:45,639
there and get more money or maybe not get more

200
00:09:45,639 --> 00:09:48,600
money from This is college football where people want to

201
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:53,080
be where they feel as home and that's what the

202
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,679
coach people play for a certain coach. Look at basketball,

203
00:09:55,919 --> 00:09:57,360
I mean if Bill Selftware to leaven go to a

204
00:09:57,399 --> 00:09:59,879
different program, Hounting, people de commit. I mean look at

205
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,600
what happened in LSU. Let go of Brian Kelly, how

206
00:10:03,639 --> 00:10:05,759
many people left? Look at what happened with James Franklin,

207
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:07,480
I mean Mike Gunny for kron all out. They lost

208
00:10:07,519 --> 00:10:09,600
what I think a top twenty five running back. That

209
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:12,360
happens when you lose a coach, You're gonna lose those recruits.

210
00:10:12,399 --> 00:10:13,840
Speaker 4: That's a part of it. And the place that you

211
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,720
commit is not always the place that you end up.

212
00:10:16,759 --> 00:10:19,360
It's not. It may be the same school, but it's

213
00:10:19,399 --> 00:10:22,360
not the same environment. To your point, people get fired,

214
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:26,600
people transfer, people go from being really good to then

215
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,399
they suck. And so you're like, Okay, well I want

216
00:10:29,399 --> 00:10:31,440
to be a part of a program that's on an

217
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,919
upward trajectory. Maybe he feels as those Syracuse isn't that

218
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,279
So then he commits to BYU. But then maybe BYU

219
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,799
pick someone up transfer wise, and he says, oh, you

220
00:10:40,799 --> 00:10:42,159
know what, that's a guy I don't want to have

221
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:47,039
to compete with. So just because you commit somewhere doesn't

222
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,559
mean what it's like when you commit it is going

223
00:10:49,639 --> 00:10:51,840
to be what it's like when you get there. To

224
00:10:51,919 --> 00:10:56,080
Missouri's credit, Missouri has been on a massive upward trajectory

225
00:10:56,519 --> 00:10:58,519
just over the last couple of months with what they're

226
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,759
doing the SEC right now. So I'm sure how the

227
00:11:01,799 --> 00:11:04,600
team plays has a big piece to do with it,

228
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:09,639
even though obviously BYU is playing really well, as is Missouri.

229
00:11:10,519 --> 00:11:12,360
What do I always say about the transfer portal? It

230
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:14,879
giveth and the transfer portal take it the way look

231
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:20,519
in the same vein Bob Mulatalo. Bob Mulatalo was committed

232
00:11:20,519 --> 00:11:24,919
to organ right and then flips back to BYU. So yeah,

233
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,600
it sucks, but a don't hate the player hate the

234
00:11:28,639 --> 00:11:32,519
game because he's not doing anything illegal. You may not

235
00:11:32,919 --> 00:11:34,960
like it and it may hurt your feelings as a

236
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:38,080
BYU fan, but he's not doing anything illegal. He didn't

237
00:11:38,159 --> 00:11:41,519
sign a contract, He gave you a verbal Hey yeah,

238
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,559
i'd like to go there, But that doesn't mean he's not.

239
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,279
That doesn't mean he's breaking any rules by going somewhere else.

240
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:49,759
And also, like, let's be real, when you commit to

241
00:11:49,799 --> 00:11:52,960
a school, everyone doesn't just stop asking you to the dance.

242
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:55,360
Everyone's still trying to get you to be their date,

243
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,519
even if you already have a boyfriend or you got

244
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,000
it somebody you're going with just because you're committed to

245
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,600
a school doesn't mean BYU and Missouri say oh, well

246
00:12:03,639 --> 00:12:05,720
you know what, Jackson, congrats to you. We won't worry

247
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,080
about you anymore. We hope all is well. No, they

248
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,039
still send you, Hey Jackson, well no, you're playing Westlake

249
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,600
this Friday. Hey, we're not trying to recruit. We just

250
00:12:14,639 --> 00:12:17,919
hope you do well. Like, it's not his fault, he

251
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,240
didn't break any rules, and if this is ultimately where

252
00:12:21,279 --> 00:12:24,519
he wants to be, I'm happy for him. My only

253
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,080
gripe is and this is not targeted towards Jackson, but

254
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,440
this is twrogeted to the landscape as a whole. Is

255
00:12:29,879 --> 00:12:33,240
I think we're setting up young people to fail. And

256
00:12:33,279 --> 00:12:36,519
what I mean by that is, I think part of

257
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,960
the issue with the transfer portal with college football as

258
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:43,679
a whole is and this goes for coaches just as

259
00:12:43,759 --> 00:12:48,240
much as it does for players. But you're not incentivizing

260
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,960
young people to understand the importance of making a commitment.

261
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,320
Now that see that word commitment's coming back around, but

262
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,759
like your word has to mean something when you say,

263
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:58,759
when you sign a contract, you are going to have

264
00:12:58,799 --> 00:13:01,519
to stay there. And I mean we see this in

265
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:03,559
the NFL all the times like, oh, I sign a deal,

266
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:05,080
but one you're into it. Oh, well, I'm not making

267
00:13:05,159 --> 00:13:07,279
enough money, so I want more. And obviously, if your

268
00:13:07,279 --> 00:13:09,960
talent dictates that, then you can do that. But it's

269
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:13,879
just I think we're setting up young people to think that.

270
00:13:14,519 --> 00:13:15,960
And look, not all these kids are going to go

271
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:18,480
to the NFL. Not all these kids are always going

272
00:13:18,519 --> 00:13:22,440
to have a talent that demands money. And so I

273
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:24,679
don't know what the right answer is. I hope we

274
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:26,799
can find a balance at some point that says, hey,

275
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,159
you got to sign a deal that says you're going

276
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:32,639
to be here if you're going to make this dollar amount,

277
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:36,120
get this benefit, whatever it is. We have no idea

278
00:13:36,159 --> 00:13:38,840
what the reason is why Jackson d committed to BYU

279
00:13:38,879 --> 00:13:40,720
and is now going to Missouri. Maybe he just like

280
00:13:40,759 --> 00:13:44,240
the coaching staff, whatever, who knows. I'm happy for him,

281
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:48,519
but I do think that we need to start finding

282
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:52,720
a way to make commitments mean more. Yeah, we do

283
00:13:52,799 --> 00:13:55,039
have to make it mean more. You bring up a

284
00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:55,759
very good point.

285
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:57,759
Speaker 2: I don't want to linger too long of it, but

286
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:00,000
just want to give everybody some updates.

287
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:00,679
Speaker 3: So let's turn to it down.

288
00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:03,200
Speaker 2: The positive news got through the bad as always say

289
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,279
start with the bad, let's finish with the good.

290
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:06,559
Speaker 3: This is per brock Harris.

291
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 2: He posted this two days ago on his Twitter page

292
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,879
on October twenty ninth, at ten thirty, he said, honor

293
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,000
to be ranked at number forty of all high school

294
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:20,279
football players, but not satisfied. This is per ESPN, So

295
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:25,240
shout out to brock Harris. He's now top forty per ESPN.

296
00:14:25,279 --> 00:14:28,039
And this is the twenty twenty six ESPN three hundred

297
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:31,720
recruiting database, So brock Harris has moved up.

298
00:14:31,759 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 3: This is a big time commitment.

299
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:37,600
Speaker 2: I know people like Carson Ryan, they talk about Isaac Rex,

300
00:14:37,639 --> 00:14:40,320
Matt Bushman, but this kid has the opportunity to be

301
00:14:40,399 --> 00:14:43,559
one of the best tight ends n BAU history. The

302
00:14:43,559 --> 00:14:46,080
pass catching ability, the run block and ability.

303
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:46,279
Speaker 5: Man.

304
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,279
Speaker 2: We've had him on the show to discuss his commitment.

305
00:14:48,799 --> 00:14:51,159
This kid is gonna turn some heads. So he's definitely

306
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:54,279
moving up in the numbers rightfully, So I think he's

307
00:14:54,279 --> 00:14:56,679
an upcoming five star. He's still a four star right

308
00:14:56,879 --> 00:14:58,679
I don't even think he's a five star at which

309
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,080
is crazy. We'll see still a lot of football left

310
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:02,240
to be played by the end of the season.

311
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:03,639
Speaker 3: Will he be a five star.

312
00:15:03,679 --> 00:15:06,679
Speaker 2: But if not, Brett brock Harris has now jumped up

313
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:07,559
into the top forty.

314
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,639
Speaker 4: Massive deal. I always felt like this guy was a

315
00:15:11,679 --> 00:15:15,159
little bit disrespected. He is kind of the leader in

316
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:19,679
the twenty twenty six BYU recruiting class clubhouse in terms

317
00:15:19,759 --> 00:15:22,840
of this is a guy who wants not to just

318
00:15:22,919 --> 00:15:27,240
bring his talents to BYU, but him and brother lyons

319
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,039
are teaming up to try to recruit everyone else to

320
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,679
the good gospel of BYU football. They're going out and

321
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,480
recruiting guys to come play with them as well. So

322
00:15:35,919 --> 00:15:39,360
shout out to brock Harris for getting a well deserved

323
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,759
bump in the rankings and super happy to have him

324
00:15:43,039 --> 00:15:43,799
at BYU.

325
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:48,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, super happy that brock Harris is at BYU. Gon

326
00:15:48,679 --> 00:15:51,399
to be a baller mission first kid. Then we'll get back.

327
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,279
But bre you got some news. I think a certain

328
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:57,360
quarterback finally per a certain network I shouldn't say really network,

329
00:15:57,399 --> 00:16:00,679
but a website finally got upgraded to a five star,

330
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,200
well kind of.

331
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 4: So I put out this video a couple months ago

332
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:08,960
and people are still watching, and I put it back

333
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:13,200
out out in June about how rivals seems to take

334
00:16:13,279 --> 00:16:15,879
guys down when they commit to BYU and upgrade if

335
00:16:15,879 --> 00:16:18,159
they commit to other programs. So, if you're on the

336
00:16:18,159 --> 00:16:22,480
internet today, you may see this graphic that has rider

337
00:16:22,559 --> 00:16:27,639
Lions listed as a five star. So Rivals at Rivals

338
00:16:27,679 --> 00:16:30,200
on x tweeted out teams with a five star QB

339
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,480
commit and then they put out this graphic and it

340
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,120
has Jared Curtis, who's Committee Georgia, and a couple other

341
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:38,039
guys and then Ryder Lions is listed as a five

342
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:40,399
star on this graphic. Now you may be saying, wait,

343
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,000
hold on a minute. I thought Ryder Lions was listed

344
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,480
as a four star sometimes on Rivals and sometimes he's not.

345
00:16:45,919 --> 00:16:50,080
This graphic that you may see out there specifically is

346
00:16:50,159 --> 00:16:54,320
tied to rivals industry ranking, so it is not necessarily

347
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,440
some of those It is not necessarily only what Rivals thinks.

348
00:16:57,559 --> 00:17:01,279
Rivals basically has the proprietary algorithm them that takes all

349
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:04,880
of the recruiting websites, averages out your score and then

350
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:08,960
says this is what all the recruiting sites say as

351
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,440
a whole, and as a whole, everyone seems to think

352
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:16,799
that Ryder Lions is a five star, even if Rivals individually,

353
00:17:17,039 --> 00:17:19,880
given how they're feeling any given Sunday decides to think

354
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:24,079
that he's a four star, but industry ranking wise, Rider

355
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:27,200
Lions is a five star as he should be. Yeah,

356
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:31,160
he should be indeed, no doubt. So it's just a

357
00:17:31,279 --> 00:17:36,039
it's a bunch of stuff that goes into these composite rankings.

358
00:17:36,079 --> 00:17:38,119
Speaker 3: I really don't want what they are, how they really work.

359
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:41,599
Speaker 2: But yeah, I think a lot of these kids are

360
00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:46,599
definitely borderline five stars for sure, four stars, so we'll see,

361
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,920
I mean different metrics. It's about what you do on

362
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,400
the field, because you've seen multiple people come in and

363
00:17:51,519 --> 00:17:53,400
that I remember chass I was ready one of the

364
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:57,240
highest stars to ever come and BWAU football history one

365
00:17:57,279 --> 00:17:59,400
of them, right, not saying you was Lee, but one

366
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:01,119
of them, and he got what he got hurt and

367
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:03,519
those things happen like that's a part of it. Injuries,

368
00:18:03,559 --> 00:18:06,799
derail things always come up. So there's nothing you can

369
00:18:06,839 --> 00:18:09,000
do at the end of the day. So yeah, the

370
00:18:09,079 --> 00:18:11,680
end of the day, life, life happens. It goes your way.

371
00:18:11,759 --> 00:18:14,519
Sometimes it doesn't. But as a couple of other news

372
00:18:14,519 --> 00:18:16,400
and notes and updates and just to let people know,

373
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:18,839
broadcast four star Bob Mula Talas to the four star

374
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:20,920
Jack Stanner. I think believe he was elevated to a

375
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,079
four star. Brax and Lindsay they still got them listed

376
00:18:23,079 --> 00:18:25,279
as a three star. Wonder if he'll get elevated right

377
00:18:25,319 --> 00:18:27,480
A Lion's five star Legend Glasgow was bumped up to

378
00:18:27,519 --> 00:18:30,720
a four star. Ty Getchi was also bumped up to

379
00:18:30,759 --> 00:18:34,279
a four star. I remember Kawe Akhanna three four star,

380
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:40,079
Matthew Mason three star, Setafini a Latini three star, Namya

381
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,160
Cologne three star, Graham Livingston, he's a three star. He

382
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,400
might need to be a four star. Graham is nasty.

383
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:46,799
If you look at the film of Grand Limits to

384
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:48,480
My Goodness, you want to talk about a guy that

385
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,480
can replace the role of Parker Kingston and what he's doing.

386
00:18:51,519 --> 00:18:53,519
Graham I think can fulfill that role when he comes

387
00:18:53,559 --> 00:18:57,279
in Juda Mulla three star, Parker Or three star, Adam

388
00:18:57,599 --> 00:19:01,440
Bywater three star, Terrence Serion three star, Antonio Johnson three star,

389
00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:05,440
Devon Echa three star, and then Justice Breakaway three stars.

390
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,960
So a lot of talent coming in this twenty twenty

391
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,720

every Friday. Yes, yes, as Ben would say, a lot

420
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,839
of Cougar has played this weekend. One particular Cougar played

421
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:34,640
last night. They had their quarterback back. He balled out

422
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:36,480
he had been dealing with injury. This is why you

423
00:20:36,559 --> 00:20:40,480
need everybody healthy on a team so you can go

424
00:20:40,559 --> 00:20:44,519
out and dominate. You can't just rely on one side

425
00:20:44,519 --> 00:20:46,720
of the ball. That's how it goes. We're gonna highlight

426
00:20:46,799 --> 00:20:50,240

457
00:22:10,319 --> 00:22:13,519
got vic CRAM data aggregator by my side, Let's break

458
00:22:13,519 --> 00:22:16,640
it down. These are the games that BYU Cougars are

459
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:20,039
gonna play this week. What happened yesterday? Actually, the Ravens

460
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:21,880
defeated the Dolphins twenty eight to six.

461
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:22,880
Speaker 3: I was the final score.

462
00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:26,400
Speaker 2: It was on primetime on Amazon Prime Videos at Primetime

463
00:22:26,519 --> 00:22:29,440
Primetime Prime Video Amazon. It kicked off at six pm

464
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:31,920
Mountain daylight time. Still that will switch. Actually in a

465
00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,759
few weeks we're gonna be hitting daylight savings where we

466
00:22:34,799 --> 00:22:37,640
will gain the hour or however that works. I don't

467
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:39,599
really look too much into that, so I've been told.

468
00:22:39,799 --> 00:22:43,920
But Kyle Vanoy played balled out in this game. Yeah,

469
00:22:44,279 --> 00:22:44,759
let's go ahead.

470
00:22:44,799 --> 00:22:46,519
Speaker 4: Let's go through Kyle's stats really quickly.

471
00:22:46,559 --> 00:22:50,039
Speaker 2: He had one total tackle, one which was solo as well,

472
00:22:50,079 --> 00:22:53,920
and he had a tackle for loss as well. Ever

473
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,440
since he's come back, Vic KVN has made an impact.

474
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:58,400
What if you liked about KVN's return.

475
00:22:58,279 --> 00:23:01,759
Speaker 5: Oh, just that he's ageless. I mean he gets there,

476
00:23:01,839 --> 00:23:05,240
he's just as quick. He's a cat out there and

477
00:23:05,279 --> 00:23:08,880
you can tell because they're usually have a guy come

478
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:13,440
and help out whatever side he's on, and they're they're

479
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:16,200
aware of wherever he is on the field, and that's

480
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:17,480
that says a lot.

481
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, you said he's ageless. I like that you brought

482
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:20,920
that up.

483
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:23,119
Speaker 2: I feel like as he gets older, he gets better,

484
00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,000
and he's in the perfect system. He's in the perfect

485
00:23:25,039 --> 00:23:27,599
scheme to be at to make plays. Having a tackle

486
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,720
loss of Levi at a sack last week against unfortunately

487
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,319
my Chicago Bears. But this defense has gotten healthier and

488
00:23:33,319 --> 00:23:35,920
they're playing at extremely high vel. Lamar Jackson return was

489
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,359
eighteen of twenty three for two oh four nine yards

490
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,200
per attempt and had four Tuddy's at quarterback rating of

491
00:23:41,319 --> 00:23:45,519
ninety two. Quarterback Yeah, quarterback qbrc's me of ninety two

492
00:23:45,519 --> 00:23:47,839
and the rating was one forty three. So it looked

493
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,319
to be as if the Baltimore Ravens are back, they

494
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:53,079
still have an opportunity to win this division, which is

495
00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:55,240
well know. Zach Wilson was shown to a tongue of

496
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,279
ILOI did not play well. You have to think with

497
00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,440
Miami being two and seven, one and three at home,

498
00:24:00,079 --> 00:24:02,839
J just see Zach Wilson play. Maybe they got rid

499
00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:06,119
of their general manager per Adam Scheffner. Today, Mike McDaniels

500
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,599
will stay the head coach through the end of the season,

501
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,559
which lets me know Vic that they're probably gonna move

502
00:24:11,599 --> 00:24:13,799
on from him at the end. I just you can't

503
00:24:13,799 --> 00:24:17,000
have two and seven seasons only make the playoffs once,

504
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,240
not get passing the Wildcarado Division one or whatever it

505
00:24:20,319 --> 00:24:21,119
is that they played in.

506
00:24:21,559 --> 00:24:22,759
Speaker 3: It's not gonna Bowl too well.

507
00:24:22,799 --> 00:24:25,119
Speaker 2: So Mike McDaniels his time could come to an end,

508
00:24:25,319 --> 00:24:26,799
but he's still gonna be the head coach for now.

509
00:24:26,799 --> 00:24:28,440
They're gonna let him ride it out in the season.

510
00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:30,519
Let's keep on the list of the rest of the

511
00:24:30,599 --> 00:24:31,960
Cougars in the pros. Yes, go ahead.

512
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:35,000
Speaker 5: I was just gonna say the Ravens are definitely a

513
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:37,759
different team without Lamar.

514
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:41,079
Speaker 3: He is so fun to watch, yeah, isn't he?

515
00:24:41,079 --> 00:24:42,960
Speaker 4: He's just and he takes care of the ball.

516
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:46,720
Speaker 5: He only has one interception this year, and you know

517
00:24:46,799 --> 00:24:49,559
it's just guaranteed he's gonna get touchdowns, not turn the

518
00:24:49,559 --> 00:24:52,519
ball over. And Derek Henry, can I say it would

519
00:24:52,599 --> 00:24:57,640
be so blank and scary to look at him coming

520
00:24:57,680 --> 00:24:59,720
at you full steam. Can you want to ask you

521
00:24:59,839 --> 00:25:02,960
that know that man, he is a man and his

522
00:25:03,039 --> 00:25:05,759
thirties still so that's impressive. Running Backs.

523
00:25:05,759 --> 00:25:08,720
Speaker 2: You know, NFL stands for not for long, and running

524
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:10,480
backs is probably the most rude of position. So for

525
00:25:10,519 --> 00:25:12,880
the night that he's getting to his thirties still producing

526
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:14,759
at a high level, it's an anomaly.

527
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,519
Speaker 3: It doesn't always happen.

528
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:18,880
Speaker 2: Let's continue on the list of the Cougars and the

529
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,759
pros that will play this weekend. Everybody will play on Sunday,

530
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:25,200
November second. The Bears at the Bengals, Ryan Rico would

531
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:28,160
be an action on CBS at eleven am Mountain daylight time.

532
00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:30,680
I think the Bengals are going to defeat my Chicago Bears.

533
00:25:30,839 --> 00:25:32,640
I think that's what it's gonna have. Rico can flip

534
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:36,519
the field opinion days. Wow, I should have got that

535
00:25:36,559 --> 00:25:38,240
sound clip cut up. Ben will be upset with me

536
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,480
if I didn't do that. Vikings at the Lions. Tyler

537
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,960
Brady actually has been playing. You know, we'll get a

538
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:45,599
couple of tackle for losses, chasing down some running backs

539
00:25:45,599 --> 00:25:47,920
and quarterbacks. He's gonna be on Fox at eleven am

540
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:52,279
Mountain daylight time. The Panthers at the Packers, Brady Papinko's

541
00:25:52,279 --> 00:25:55,160
go pack go the shot through the heart bond joby

542
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,519
for me, because again I have to see the Packers

543
00:25:57,559 --> 00:26:00,000
in the NFC North A p will be happy. Brady

544
00:26:00,079 --> 00:26:03,039
Christensen action Brady's seen some time this year up from

545
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:06,920
blocking Zaan train. I think had a fumble rec on

546
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:08,640
a muff punt if I'm correct me. If they're not

547
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:10,720
Chris Brooks. That game also going to be on Fox

548
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:12,720
eleven AM Mounts in daylight time. And this is going

549
00:26:12,759 --> 00:26:14,519
to be local whatever your network is, unless you have

550
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:16,599
the subscriptions where you can watch all of them. So

551
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,119
depending what side of the country you're on, you'll probably

552
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:23,559
get Panthers, Packers, You'll probably get Vikings Lyings, depending where

553
00:26:23,599 --> 00:26:25,799
you're at your East Coast person, That's why I'm bringing

554
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:27,799
up the Panthers. If you're more in the Mountain time

555
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:30,200
a now Mountain time zone, Central time zone, you'll probably

556
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:33,720
get the Vikings and lines. Check this out the Falcons

557
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:37,920
at Patriots, Tyler als Year and Kyristarga on CBS eleven

558
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:38,839
Amount to daylight Time.

559
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:40,160
Speaker 3: Vick, what do you like about that game? Oh?

560
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:41,000
Speaker 4: Just Tyler.

561
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:44,759
Speaker 5: I love watching Tyler And well we'll get to mister

562
00:26:44,799 --> 00:26:47,720
Tonga here in the second because he's doing a great job,

563
00:26:47,799 --> 00:26:50,759
but it is I am so excited that he is

564
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,319
a free agent after this year and he'll have the

565
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:57,279
opportunity to go somewhere and be the number one ocause

566
00:26:57,319 --> 00:27:03,440
after that rookie season, we saw nothing but incredible play

567
00:27:03,519 --> 00:27:06,079
from him, and and he looked like a number one

568
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:09,640
back then. Yeah, you know, and I believe once he

569
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:11,880
gets that opportunity, you're going to see him at the

570
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:18,079
top of some yards per carry yards a game in

571
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:18,759
the NFL.

572
00:27:19,559 --> 00:27:19,720
Speaker 3: Yeah.

573
00:27:19,799 --> 00:27:22,440
Speaker 2: In my opinion, I believe Tyler can be a bruiser.

574
00:27:22,519 --> 00:27:26,000
I believe he can have success in the NFL. Maybe

575
00:27:26,039 --> 00:27:28,839
not to the high level he did in college, but

576
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:30,880
I think he can have a good amount of success.

577
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:33,319
Now does that mean he's RB one or RB two?

578
00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:33,680
Speaker 3: He did?

579
00:27:33,799 --> 00:27:35,240
Speaker 2: We played a sound club. I think it was three

580
00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,359
weeks ago, if I'm correct me. If I'm wrong, Brett

581
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:41,400
always bringing the hammer about that he likes Bjon Robinson.

582
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,519
He likes being in that system, so he very well

583
00:27:43,559 --> 00:27:46,119
could seem he could stay in Atlanta. He seems as

584
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,200
if he was in high spirits. Saw him during the

585
00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:50,119
bye week when he was at one of the BYU games.

586
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:53,720
He seemed, you know, pretty happy, likes the situation. Obviously,

587
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:55,200
I hadn't asked him too much. Hey you're in a contract,

588
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,079
got and ask that. But he seemed to be happy

589
00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:59,079
when he talked about, you know, work and where he's

590
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:00,160
at and having a mic up.

591
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:01,880
Speaker 3: But I agree with you that rookie season.

592
00:28:01,759 --> 00:28:03,559
Speaker 2: When I feel like he was disrespectful a little bit

593
00:28:03,559 --> 00:28:05,440
and it should have been a conversation. I know Garrel

594
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:07,799
Wilson is a phenomenal receiver, but for the fact that

595
00:28:07,839 --> 00:28:10,240
Tyler wasn't even in the discussion, that's what I'm bringing up.

596
00:28:10,319 --> 00:28:10,880
Speaker 3: Was a problem.

597
00:28:11,039 --> 00:28:13,599
Speaker 5: Just to hear other NFL players talking I tell him,

598
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:18,200
and the commentators they just they just love the guy.

599
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,079
And so that's why I'm thinking that, uh, you know,

600
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:24,279
he might get an opportunity to he could be you know,

601
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:25,720
or be one somewhere.

602
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:27,519
Speaker 2: Dollar dollar Bill's talks. So we'll see what happens with

603
00:28:27,599 --> 00:28:29,799
Tyler in this offseason. But still a lot of games

604
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:31,599
left to go right now, playing for.

605
00:28:32,279 --> 00:28:36,200
Speaker 5: And Kyler Lars and kyris, by the way, incredible, what's

606
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,599
this his fifth year? Now? Yeah, I mean he's just

607
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:43,119
going and playing and clogging up the middle. He's perfect

608
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:45,640
for an NFL defense and he is just balling.

609
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 2: I love that he's in the perfect system with the

610
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:52,319
perfect coach, Yep, Mike Mike Babrol, who knows defenses need

611
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:54,160
to be I know Kyris bounced around. He was with

612
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,039
the Patriots before, with the Bears, with the Vikings, right,

613
00:28:58,039 --> 00:28:58,519
I don't even know.

614
00:28:58,559 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 4: I can't remember if he was with the Falcons. Be

615
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:00,680
wrong about that.

616
00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,039
Speaker 2: No, I know he's bounced between those teams and he's

617
00:29:03,039 --> 00:29:05,640
back with the Patriots, and rightfully so, this coach is

618
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:07,240
going to know how to utilize them. But you have

619
00:29:07,319 --> 00:29:11,000
defensive minded coaches. I felt like he needed to go there.

620
00:29:11,119 --> 00:29:13,400
I felt like he would be in phenomenal in the

621
00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:17,039
Ravens system, the Lions system. Guys that have good defense

622
00:29:17,079 --> 00:29:19,839
and good defensive lines to generate pressure that stop that

623
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:23,720
are good run defensive teams. Right now, he's with the

624
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:25,960
great opportune Drake Mace playing good ball. So I think

625
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:29,599
Kyris is doing great over there. Out He's excited for him.

626
00:29:29,599 --> 00:29:32,119
So see what happens with Kiris and Tyler. Does Tyler

627
00:29:32,119 --> 00:29:35,079
get a contract Stanger? Does he go the Dalla dollar bills?

628
00:29:35,119 --> 00:29:38,440
Talk all in the NFL. As he ended today, this

629
00:29:38,519 --> 00:29:41,400
game is I think the one that all BYU fans

630
00:29:41,839 --> 00:29:44,680
might have their eye on the mind included Vic, this

631
00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:46,319
could be your game of the year. Excuse me, the

632
00:29:46,359 --> 00:29:48,079
game of the week for Cougars and the pros, I'll

633
00:29:48,079 --> 00:29:50,880
ask you. But the Saints traveled to the Rams, Taysom

634
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:53,720
still getting disrespected. They've ben Spencer Raller and they go

635
00:29:53,799 --> 00:29:57,400
with Tyler Shuck. I'm like, why is Taysum not the quarterback?

636
00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:00,200
Why do you continue to look over you know the

637
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,200
bull those are at number seven. He can do it all.

638
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:04,920
But look, they want to keep discrediting. But Taysom will

639
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:08,000
be an action. Michael Davis will be an action. And

640
00:30:08,039 --> 00:30:12,359
then pook Pooka Hooka is He's He's back.

641
00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:13,160
Speaker 3: He right, that's right.

642
00:30:13,319 --> 00:30:15,319
Speaker 2: If book had been out for a while with that

643
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:16,880
and I shouldn't say a while, a couple of weeks

644
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:21,480
and that's not really two weeks with that ankle, And honestly,

645
00:30:21,559 --> 00:30:23,960
you could see a little bit of a drop off.

646
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:26,440
I mean, Devanta Adams still Deavante Adams, but you saw

647
00:30:26,519 --> 00:30:29,200
moments where they struggle not having Pooka. He said, Okay,

648
00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:31,839
you see the deficiencies in the offense a little bit.

649
00:30:31,839 --> 00:30:34,559
Because he's a bona fide number one wide receiver. They

650
00:30:34,559 --> 00:30:37,319
get him back, he commented earlier. I saw common earlier

651
00:30:37,319 --> 00:30:38,880
this morning. I think that he either said yesterday the

652
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,319
day before he's feeling great. I wish I had got

653
00:30:41,319 --> 00:30:43,200
that soundclip cued up or found it. But he feels

654
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:46,279
extremely healthy. Ankle feels great. Sounds like according to him,

655
00:30:46,319 --> 00:30:47,839
he's back. That game is going to be I think

656
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:49,279
the game of the week is going to be we

657
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:51,359
might not be the game of the week, but that's

658
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,079
the Cougar is in the Pro Spotlight. Game of the

659
00:30:53,119 --> 00:30:56,920
Week per BYU Football is Saints at the Rams. That

660
00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:58,440
game is going to be on Fox at two of

661
00:30:58,559 --> 00:31:00,920
five Mountain daylight time. I know a lot of fans

662
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,039
will be tuned into that. I will be at least

663
00:31:03,079 --> 00:31:04,839
for the first part of it, the first twenty minutes

664
00:31:05,119 --> 00:31:08,000
until I'm watching this game. The Kansas City Chiefs and

665
00:31:08,039 --> 00:31:11,039
the Buffalo Bills. Cacy Suell Mantilla will be in action

666
00:31:11,119 --> 00:31:12,559
and Andy Reid. I know that they don't put the

667
00:31:12,599 --> 00:31:14,799
coaches on the air and Andy Reid on CBS. They

668
00:31:14,839 --> 00:31:17,759
traveled to Bills Mafia to Buffalo to take on Josh

669
00:31:17,839 --> 00:31:20,160
Han the Bills such a rivaly. Andy Reid is so

670
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:21,880
good in these games, so good when he goes on

671
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:24,759
the road. Kingsley has played phenomenal ever since they moved

672
00:31:24,799 --> 00:31:26,319
him to left guard.

673
00:31:26,359 --> 00:31:26,960
Speaker 4: Inside.

674
00:31:27,119 --> 00:31:28,960
Speaker 2: I know last year tackle didn't really go his way,

675
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,240
but left guard, they've been playing phenomenal. Patrick Mahomes has

676
00:31:32,279 --> 00:31:34,799
played great the last three to four weeks, even in

677
00:31:34,799 --> 00:31:37,319
at Jaguars loss, and it's all because of this offensive line.

678
00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:39,839
You see the trust that he has in Kingsley and

679
00:31:39,839 --> 00:31:41,880
the rest of the boys up front, because they've been

680
00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:44,160
slinging it all over I think Mahomes has thrown for

681
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:46,079
at least two or three touchdowns in every single game,

682
00:31:46,119 --> 00:31:48,480
if not running for another. So they got the protection

683
00:31:48,559 --> 00:31:50,519
up front and they're starting to look like a super

684
00:31:50,559 --> 00:31:52,960
Bowl continuing offensive line. I think at one point you

685
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,200
could say Kingsley and the rest of the team did not,

686
00:31:55,559 --> 00:31:57,599
but Andy Reid has got these boys in check and

687
00:31:57,640 --> 00:31:59,559
they are bought in Kingsley.

688
00:31:59,599 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 4: Let me tell you he's just gonna get better. He is.

689
00:32:02,119 --> 00:32:04,480
Speaker 5: I mean, he's still relatively young. He is his second

690
00:32:04,559 --> 00:32:06,559
year in the league, and I'll tell you he's gonna

691
00:32:06,559 --> 00:32:10,960
get better. So watch out for him Cougar Nation, because

692
00:32:11,319 --> 00:32:14,880
you're gonna see that guy play some great football in

693
00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:15,400
the future.

694
00:32:15,599 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 4: Got drafted at the end of the second round.

695
00:32:17,839 --> 00:32:20,039
Speaker 2: Some argue could have been a first round, you know,

696
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,759
top ten, top fifteen or later on pick that didn't

697
00:32:22,759 --> 00:32:23,880
happen falls at the second round.

698
00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:24,599
Speaker 3: But it doesn't matter.

699
00:32:24,799 --> 00:32:26,599
Speaker 2: Anytime I think a team drafts you in the first

700
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,160
or second round, they expect you to play that year

701
00:32:29,279 --> 00:32:30,920
at some point, whether you're a starter or whether you

702
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:33,279
come in halfway point, they expect that of you. And

703
00:32:33,359 --> 00:32:36,359
Kingsley didn't go his way unfortunately, had to be benched,

704
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,799
played on special teams though, kept working probably a full

705
00:32:39,839 --> 00:32:42,640
off season, probably some you know, some good coaching. Yeah,

706
00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:46,160
talk with Danny and offensive line, good offseason, and look

707
00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:47,759
what happens. And you know what he did at BYU,

708
00:32:47,839 --> 00:32:50,440
So you knew he always had the he just had

709
00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:52,559
to put it all together and he did that and

710
00:32:52,599 --> 00:32:54,880
shout at the kings League. So that's your Cougar's in

771
00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:58,159
of names on here, a lots of them from the

Big twelve. Let's just tell you who he's gonna be

773
00:36:00,679 --> 00:36:02,800
going up against. Obviously some of the big names Native

Mint from Tennessee, Camera Boozer at Duke, Alex Condon at Florida,

775
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:11,840
Devon Dent at UCLA. AJJ on the list. You also

776
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:16,119
have the likes of Darren Peterson from Kansas. There's multitudes

777
00:36:16,159 --> 00:36:16,760
of people on here.

778
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:17,039
Speaker 4: J T.

779
00:36:17,159 --> 00:36:20,639
Speaker 2: Toppin from Texas Tech, Milos Uzon from Houston, and then,

780
00:36:20,639 --> 00:36:23,679
of course we can't forget the guy that transferred coming back,

781
00:36:24,039 --> 00:36:27,280
Darrion Williams at North Carolina. Say, there's a bunch of

782
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:28,840
other people on this list, to a couple people from

783
00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:33,280
Yukon and Zaga. Graham Ike from Gonzaga. I'm Alex Carbon

784
00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:36,280
from Yukon. I think I'm saying his last name. I apologize.

785
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,960
It's a bunch of people on this list. Brett. Can

786
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:41,760
J win this award?

787
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:45,400
Speaker 4: It feels like every day when I get on here

788
00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:48,559
and I open the laptop looking for what press releases

789
00:36:48,599 --> 00:36:50,719
we got going on, it feels like every day of

790
00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:53,159
the week it's a new award that aj is being

791
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:56,320
nominated for. I can't remember if we've seen him being

792
00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:59,239
nominated for. Nate Smith Player of the year yet I

793
00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:01,079
can't remember if that's come out. I'm sure someone's gonna

794
00:37:01,079 --> 00:37:02,960
tweet it me and tell me that it has or

795
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:06,920
that it hasn't. But look, i mean preseason all Big twelve,

796
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:10,199
we saw him give it to UNC the other day.

797
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:16,079
I'm it's just hard to compartmentalize, right, because until you

798
00:37:16,159 --> 00:37:18,679
see it, it's so hard to believe it when you're

799
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:21,079
talking about a guy who could be the best player

800
00:37:21,159 --> 00:37:24,679
in the country, just simply because the last time something

801
00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:27,960
of that caliber happened, it was Jimmer for Debt, and

802
00:37:28,039 --> 00:37:31,199
so now you're talking about the possibility that something that big,

803
00:37:31,679 --> 00:37:36,800
that dynamic, that number one happens again. I'm having a

804
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,920
hard time getting a tangible sense of what that looks like.

805
00:37:40,039 --> 00:37:42,599
I'm excited for it, I don't know how the story

806
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:46,199
ends here, because I believe aj will be number one

807
00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:48,559
overall pick. I believe he'll be Player of the Year.

808
00:37:48,599 --> 00:37:50,639
I believe he'll be Big twelve Player of the Year,

809
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:54,280
all of those things. But until I see it, I

810
00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:56,039
don't know what it looks like. Because again, he's not

811
00:37:56,119 --> 00:37:58,760
the only guy here. There's Darren Peterson who's competing for

812
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:00,559
a lot of these same spots. There's a lot of

813
00:38:00,599 --> 00:38:03,239
guys in college basketball who won it, And just because

814
00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:06,960
AJ was nominated preseason doesn't guarantee that you end the season.

815
00:38:07,079 --> 00:38:10,360
All I know is the potential is limitless. I think

816
00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:12,440
he'll win that. I think he'll win Nasmith Player of

817
00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:15,280
the Year, and I'm really excited for everything that is

818
00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:16,840
to come this season.

819
00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:20,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, normally the big high freshman can win the Natesmith

820
00:38:20,599 --> 00:38:21,280
Player of the Year.

821
00:38:21,599 --> 00:38:23,440
Speaker 3: JT. Toppo would really have to go off.

822
00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:26,239
Speaker 2: And this is goes into my argument of what I

823
00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:29,239
was saying yesterday about the preseason poll. JT has already

824
00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:31,400
set the bar high. If anything you do that's the

825
00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:34,280
same or less than that Brett, you don't get credit for.

826
00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:37,760
Like Richie's usage went up and it's production went up.

827
00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,079
You don't see that that happened to Texas Chech with

828
00:38:40,159 --> 00:38:42,960
Darien Williams. His usage went up, but numbers went down,

829
00:38:43,119 --> 00:38:45,239
because that's just how it goes. It's a lot turnovers

830
00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:46,679
when the balls will get into your hand, it's more

831
00:38:46,679 --> 00:38:48,480
it's hard to replicate. So that's why I bring it

832
00:38:48,559 --> 00:38:50,159
up and people saying, oh, well, he's back. I get

833
00:38:50,199 --> 00:38:51,840
that he's back, but do you know how hard it

834
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:54,000
is the average eighteen points a game. To redo that,

835
00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:56,280
to play that well in conference again, when you have

836
00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:58,119
this kid who has no skin in the game and

837
00:38:58,159 --> 00:39:00,159
has all the hype. If you're a returning player, to

838
00:39:00,199 --> 00:39:03,280
be honest, everything I think discredits you to win the

839
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:06,039
award in that regard. I don't think if you're a

840
00:39:06,119 --> 00:39:07,960
new kid on the block that goes against you, I

841
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:10,960
think that benefits you more. Especially aj and this. I mean,

842
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:14,519
look this kid, he's racking up the preseason accolades. They

843
00:39:14,519 --> 00:39:18,239
continue to roll in for this freshman from Massachusetts. I

844
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:20,519
just want to remind people he was named to the

845
00:39:20,599 --> 00:39:24,760
Nasmith Starting five Julius Irvin small Ford Ford of the

846
00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:27,800
Year preseason watch list as well on Wednesday, you know,

847
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:29,639
early the month. He became just a second player on

848
00:39:29,679 --> 00:39:33,239
program Mystery to earn ap preseason All American honors. Another

849
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:36,159
one was Jim or So look that this is a

850
00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:38,719
kid that is going to be able to ball. In

851
00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:41,960
the two exhibition games, remind you the six nine forward

852
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:45,199
he averaged twenty four points, seven and a half boards,

853
00:39:45,559 --> 00:39:46,840
three steals.

854
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:48,360
Speaker 3: Two blocks per game.

855
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:52,480
Speaker 2: He plays defense, and the crazy part is I don't

856
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:54,599
even see assisting. Kevin Young told us after the Blue

857
00:39:54,599 --> 00:39:57,199
White game, Brett, you and I were there. He said, hey,

858
00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,360
make the right read, which means, hey, have you getting

859
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:01,880
double teamed? Don't force the shots. You shouldn't take past

860
00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:03,840
the ball. I don't even see assist On here. So

861
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:06,599
for the fact that he's still doing that, man, I

862
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:09,480
just I mean, what do you want him to do?

863
00:40:09,519 --> 00:40:12,079
And then he finished with eighteen points, eight rebound, stree blocks,

864
00:40:12,159 --> 00:40:15,000
and three steals in BYU's seventy eight to seventy six

865
00:40:15,079 --> 00:40:19,679
win over Kayleb Wilson and number twenty five North North Carolina.

866
00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:20,440
Speaker 3: Like, think about that.

867
00:40:20,679 --> 00:40:24,920
Speaker 2: Eighteen points, eight boards, three blocks, and three steals against

868
00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:27,519
the top twenty five team.

869
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:29,239
Speaker 4: And this is after he dropped a thirty thirty PI.

870
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:31,960
Speaker 2: I mean, BYU fans have been raving, They've been looking

871
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:34,639
for where's the player that's gonna take us to the

872
00:40:34,639 --> 00:40:36,320
next level. Where is the player that's gonna have the

873
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:39,440
opportunity to be able to get us to an Elite

874
00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:41,679
eight or a Final four. It's this kid. When I

875
00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:44,519
look at these numbers and watching balling. North Carolina's not

876
00:40:44,519 --> 00:40:48,559
a scrub team. Nebraska's not a bad team. So look,

877
00:40:48,679 --> 00:40:51,159
I don't know what he's gonna drop against Villanova. We'll

878
00:40:51,159 --> 00:40:53,440
break that down on Monday. We won't get ahead of ourselves.

879
00:40:53,639 --> 00:40:55,320
But I'm looking at the video right now, you're watching

880
00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:57,840
Nebraska game. He takes on content that does a seven footer,

881
00:40:58,199 --> 00:41:01,000
that's a seven foot dude, and he and wondhm and

882
00:41:01,039 --> 00:41:02,760
he's got another dude that's six's not trying to reach

883
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:05,480
a block, Like, come on, man, like, I know you left,

884
00:41:05,519 --> 00:41:07,320
Like this kid is unbelievable.

885
00:41:07,639 --> 00:41:10,440
Speaker 4: I mean, the thing that's even more unbelievable to me

886
00:41:11,119 --> 00:41:14,000
is that even when he goes left, he still finishes

887
00:41:14,039 --> 00:41:17,599
with the right. Witched crazy it like it's it's like,

888
00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:20,559
people are gonna call me out for this. But one

889
00:41:20,599 --> 00:41:23,280
of my favorite clips I've ever seen is Taylor Jwan

890
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:26,320
talking about Patrick Mahomes and they said, hey, describe Patrick Mahomes.

891
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:28,679
Taylor Wan goes, you know, I've heard a lot of

892
00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:30,920
coaches have a lot of rules for quarterbacks and tel

893
00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:34,599
quarterbacks don't do this. Yeah, Patrick Mahomes does those things

894
00:41:34,599 --> 00:41:37,880
and it works out tremendously for him. I think aj Debonza, like, again,

895
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:40,679
you see him going left, he's still finishing with the

896
00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:43,440
right over top of you because he knows you can't

897
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:45,880
stop him. It's not because he can't finish left. He

898
00:41:46,079 --> 00:41:48,760
just knows that he can still go right, still go

899
00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:50,440
up with the right and finish over top of you.

900
00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:54,360
I mean, here's the deal. Ron, Let's say aj only

901
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:57,639
scores fourteen points in the first game and twelve points

902
00:41:57,639 --> 00:42:00,000
in the second game. Let's just say that that happened.

903
00:42:01,039 --> 00:42:03,519
There would be no change up from us. There would

904
00:42:03,519 --> 00:42:06,079
be no concern, there would be no worry going, Oh,

905
00:42:06,119 --> 00:42:08,760
can he score the basketball? We would be like, no,

906
00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:11,639
it's it's good. It's exhibition, Like that's solid for a

907
00:42:11,679 --> 00:42:15,800
college basketball game. It's different than the NBA. Now he's

908
00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:18,840
not having to have those excuses made for him. He

909
00:42:19,039 --> 00:42:22,079
did drop a thirty piece and then eighteen points in

910
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:25,679
exhibition games against top tier opponents. Like, what's he gonna

911
00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:28,000
do when he plays some of these weaker games at

912
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,480
the end of the non conference schedule. What's he gonna

913
00:42:30,519 --> 00:42:33,760
do against guys like Villanova? What's he going to do?

914
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:34,199
Speaker 5: Ron?

915
00:42:34,519 --> 00:42:38,559
Speaker 4: When he goes to his hometown playing in d Garden

916
00:42:39,039 --> 00:42:44,719
and Yukon comes to town, he says, no, no, no, no,

917
00:42:45,199 --> 00:42:49,000
So yeah, can he win this award? One hundred percent?

918
00:42:49,119 --> 00:42:50,840
My question is not going to win the award. My

919
00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:53,239
question is what else is he going to do that

920
00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:55,559
we can't even expect right now?

921
00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:58,800
Speaker 2: Random basketball question of the day. I haven't had you

922
00:42:58,840 --> 00:42:59,960
put it out there, but maybe I need to have

923
00:43:00,119 --> 00:43:02,639
you put it out there now. How many awards will

924
00:43:02,679 --> 00:43:05,480
Aj Debonsa finish with the end of the season. How

925
00:43:05,519 --> 00:43:08,440
many accolades will he have? Because I think this kid's

926
00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:11,199
gonna have a handful. He might have what is it

927
00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:13,920
a Michael Jordan's shack. He might have one, two, three, four,

928
00:43:14,039 --> 00:43:15,760
five on the ring, he might have a couple Tim

929
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:18,400
duncan status actually five on the finger. We're gonna find

930
00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:20,079
out by the end of the season. You might have

931
00:43:20,079 --> 00:43:22,079
to put that out there. We'll see if you do, guys.

932
00:43:22,119 --> 00:43:24,559
