40
00:01:49,599 --> 00:01:54,359
get into today. I feel like there has been a reckoning. Okay,

41
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:58,480
there has been a turn. There has been a bit

42
00:01:58,799 --> 00:02:04,719
of a moment shift nationally with the pundits, the analysts,

43
00:02:04,879 --> 00:02:06,200
the talking heads.

44
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:07,959
Speaker 5: Not everyone was.

45
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:11,759
Speaker 4: Buying into who BYU was throughout the season, even though

46
00:02:11,759 --> 00:02:12,719
they were winning They.

47
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,479
Speaker 2: Were winning in a resilient way. They were winning in

48
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,960
a gritty way. The margin of victories were not robust.

49
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:20,879
Speaker 4: They just found a way to win, whethers on the

50
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:24,800
road or at home. But it didn't always look pretty,

51
00:02:25,199 --> 00:02:29,400
this complimentary style Cougar football team. But when it's all

52
00:02:29,479 --> 00:02:31,919
said and done and by the end of the regular season,

53
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:33,599
they had some style points. They went on the road

54
00:02:33,599 --> 00:02:36,080
and beat Cincinnati. Okay, and they did it in a

55
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:39,400
convincing fashion. They did it with with LJ. Martin, the

56
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,759
Big Twelve Offensive Player of the Year. Okay, they have

57
00:02:42,879 --> 00:02:46,319
a true freshman quarterback that is arguably the best quarterback

58
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,800
in college football. His PFF grade validates that he's the

59
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:55,639
top football player top freshman football player in college football

60
00:02:55,680 --> 00:03:00,360
per PFF. They start to slow down and not be

61
00:03:00,479 --> 00:03:04,479
distracted these punditsies, analysts, these talking heads. They start to

62
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,639
they start to stack up the resumes against each other.

63
00:03:08,759 --> 00:03:11,639
Speaker 5: And when you do that, you're like, well, I'll be dawned.

64
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:17,919
Speaker 2: Look you there, aha, epiphany, epiphany, You know what by

65
00:03:18,039 --> 00:03:20,000
is getting kind of cheated here? Wait wait wait wait wait,

66
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,840
you're telling me BYU BYU is he's only lost three

67
00:03:23,879 --> 00:03:27,199
games over the last two seasons hot, damn.

68
00:03:27,039 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 5: Well, what do you know? You know, maybe maybe they

69
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,719
are getting screwed here. Wait wait, ye know. BYU does

70
00:03:32,759 --> 00:03:34,840
have a history of winning a lot of football games.

71
00:03:35,879 --> 00:03:37,240
They have a legacy.

72
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 4: Program, and they were shunned for years not being allowed

73
00:03:39,719 --> 00:03:40,759
to be in the power structure.

74
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,039
Speaker 5: They start when things start to slow down.

75
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 2: There's not as many games this week, right, it's conference

76
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,960
championship week. There's not as much noise, there's not as

77
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,639
many distractions, and they're starting to evaluate.

78
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 5: They're like, hmm, maybe I was wrong about BUYU all along.

79
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:57,680
They they are a good one the way.

80
00:03:57,759 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know what they they're only losses to Texas

81
00:04:00,439 --> 00:04:03,000
and when you look at that Texas Tech game, you

82
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:04,680
know their defense actually played.

83
00:04:04,719 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 5: Gosh darn well.

84
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:09,039
Speaker 2: They were at Lubbock two. They were they were in

85
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:13,479
a violent Rockets environment. Now they're gonna get another chance

86
00:04:13,479 --> 00:04:13,800
at it.

87
00:04:14,439 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 4: Maybe we were wrong about by We're gonna discuss it

88
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:18,240
here on your Utah ESPN.

89
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,439
Speaker 5: Ready, network, let's get into it. Let's fire it up.

90
00:04:20,639 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 2: ESB and the fans starting lineup, and I can introduce

91
00:04:23,399 --> 00:04:24,680
you to I Coast and the rest of the Star

92
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,279
Started cast joining us.

93
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,759
Speaker 4: For this Friday edition of Cougar Sports. Let's welcome in

94
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,240
first and foremost the man next to me here in

95
00:04:31,319 --> 00:04:36,519
the Vanderwelt Studios breaking it all down form BYU TV

96
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,480
sideline reporters work for the Nton Mammoth and now part

97
00:04:39,519 --> 00:04:42,360
of our ESBN the fan Families. We have a man

98
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,000
always bring the hammler Brent Hammer Hammer Times show what's happening, bro.

99
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:48,160
Speaker 5: I had a horrible opicture.

100
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 2: It's not good, but it is I believe intelligence.

101
00:04:53,399 --> 00:04:55,360
Speaker 5: You think about that BYU.

102
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 2: Texas Tech team, and you think about all of the

103
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:02,240
things that went wrong that went anti BYU, that really

104
00:05:02,319 --> 00:05:04,800
led to that game being twenty nine to seven into

105
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,800
those spots that looked like an absolute man handling out.

106
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:10,839
It wasn't good for YU, but if you look the

107
00:05:10,879 --> 00:05:13,079
way the defense played, it was better than I think

108
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:14,480
some people could bet.

109
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,519
Speaker 4: How about sounddown? Bring that sound down, Thunderson. We can

110
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:18,240
hear Brent brother.

111
00:05:18,519 --> 00:05:21,439
Speaker 2: So BYU loses in that game and then they drop,

112
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,560
I think from the seventh spots to twelve spot. Right,

113
00:05:23,879 --> 00:05:25,800
So they dropped the seven spots to the twelve spot

114
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:29,959
and then they've since one spot up. I think had

115
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,959
BYU found a way to score one more touchdown or

116
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:37,160
stop one more touchdown. I think they don't fall five spots.

117
00:05:37,199 --> 00:05:40,519
I think they probably fall four. Instead, they still get

118
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,839
that one spot movement up, and we are no longer

119
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,000
talking about BIU being held out of the conference or

120
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,519
being held out of the playoffs, because now you're sitting

121
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,800
in a situation where, I mean, it's almost impossible for

122
00:05:53,079 --> 00:05:56,920
YU to lose and still move a spot up into

123
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,319
that playoff spot. But I just was thinking about that yesterday, Like,

124
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,279
let's say Parker Kingston catches that point and let's say they.

125
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 5: Score even a field.

126
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:05,720
Speaker 2: Well, let's say they go down and get a touchdown,

127
00:06:05,759 --> 00:06:07,439
and let's say it's twenty nine to fourteen. At the

128
00:06:07,519 --> 00:06:10,399
end of the game, I think you fall at minimum

129
00:06:10,399 --> 00:06:13,199
four spots instead of five. You still get one more

130
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:17,000
spot left, and BYU sits at that ten spot. Miami

131
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,279
and Notre Dame are having a much more fun conversation

132
00:06:19,639 --> 00:06:23,920
between twelve and eleven, and it just it just sucks.

133
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:27,079
Had the ball bounced one way differently in that game,

134
00:06:27,199 --> 00:06:30,399
I think we would be talking about BYU being in

135
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:34,319
the playoff headed into this weekend, and now we're not

136
00:06:34,439 --> 00:06:36,279
because of the way the things went down that weekend.

137
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 4: I think the eye test deal, right, that's what everyone's

138
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,279
talking about, because it was a game day, it was

139
00:06:42,639 --> 00:06:44,720
there was a lot of pomp and circumstances surrounding it,

140
00:06:44,519 --> 00:06:47,399
and it failed. It flopped. It was not competitive. It

141
00:06:47,439 --> 00:06:50,279
didn't look good, it didn't feel good. It was sloppy.

142
00:06:50,879 --> 00:06:53,439
BYU was out manned out play, even though there were

143
00:06:53,439 --> 00:06:55,560
a lot of like virtuous things that you could point

144
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,399
two silver linings, and the defense was tremendous, but the

145
00:06:58,439 --> 00:07:01,560
offense and the special teams just weren't up to snuff.

146
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:05,519
And and so I get it, you know, I understand that.

147
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,439
And it could have gone even worse, like the other

148
00:07:08,519 --> 00:07:11,120
component of all this, it could have been much worse.

149
00:07:12,079 --> 00:07:13,920
Bear Morton was a little bit dinged up. He didn

150
00:07:13,959 --> 00:07:16,120
get sacked four times. He had that stress reaction. He's

151
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,839
wearing that like brace. He sat out for a little

152
00:07:18,839 --> 00:07:21,120
bit and now he's back, so he could be better,

153
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:24,439
or he could be about the same. Quite honestly, I

154
00:07:24,439 --> 00:07:26,399
think that moodes well for BYU in this game, being

155
00:07:26,399 --> 00:07:27,279
on a neutral field.

156
00:07:27,439 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 5: Quite honestly, if you get after him as.

157
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 4: You did, you're gonna have just as much efficiency and

158
00:07:31,639 --> 00:07:34,079
efficacy and he made some dime throws.

159
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, that were all armed, no legs. It's hard to

160
00:07:37,959 --> 00:07:42,120
do again. That's hard to do again. So and I

161
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,839
know Bo's defense is gonna be a little bit different.

162
00:07:44,879 --> 00:07:47,439
But you know, going back to what happened in that game,

163
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,759
I understand I have empathy for the human nature, the

164
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:56,560
fallen state of men and their fallibility, right, and their

165
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:59,160
emotional attests were only as good as our anecdotes in

166
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:02,560
this life. And so once you've experienced something your eye tests,

167
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:04,879
you're like, well, I know this. I don't remember everything

168
00:08:04,879 --> 00:08:07,040
about that game, but I remember how it made me feel.

169
00:08:07,399 --> 00:08:08,759
Speaker 5: I remember how it made me feel.

170
00:08:09,519 --> 00:08:11,439
Speaker 4: You know, it's not what they said, it's how they

171
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:15,279
made them feel, right, And it's not what they did,

172
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:16,519
it's how.

173
00:08:16,399 --> 00:08:17,439
Speaker 5: They made me feel.

174
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:21,319
Speaker 2: And that's that's an indelible mark on my heart, on

175
00:08:21,399 --> 00:08:25,040
my football spirit and my loins. You know, these football

176
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:29,399
Playoff Committee decision makers, that's how they feel about it.

177
00:08:30,079 --> 00:08:33,519
And even when the only thing that can bring them

178
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:38,720
back to Homeostasius level set is they the noise has

179
00:08:38,759 --> 00:08:42,039
to stop and they have to start going line on

180
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,240
them by line on it and comparing resume. There's a

181
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:47,559
reason why the colleed Football playf Comittee, ESPN, Fox, CBS Sports,

182
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,960
They've all decided not to put by U in a

183
00:08:51,159 --> 00:08:59,159
visual side by side comparative resume ev ow they don't

184
00:08:59,159 --> 00:09:00,919
want to do it because they're like when they do it,

185
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:05,360
like like, well shoot, thinkl matter we were we're kind

186
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:08,000
of wrong here. Well they don't remember, they don't want

187
00:09:08,159 --> 00:09:12,720
to be They it's confirmation bias.

188
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:14,519
Speaker 5: It just is what it is. Like well, no, no, like,

189
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:15,440
and the.

190
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 2: Objective data is going against their confirmation bias, and they

191
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:19,720
don't want to be called out on it. They don't

192
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:25,799
want the public propaganda hepe machine swaying them off of

193
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:31,039
their anecdotal confirmation biased feelings. And ESPN just so everyone knows,

194
00:09:31,279 --> 00:09:34,799
ESPN has to be biased the way of the CFP committee.

195
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,039
They cannot have a lack of bias because they have

196
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,600
an exclusive deal with this. This is not just the

197
00:09:40,639 --> 00:09:43,320
BCS and we're all just talking about it. ESPN is

198
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,200
in bed with the CFP. That is a deal that

199
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,840
is on paper. This is not a conspiracy. That's why

200
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:50,960
ESPN is the one that you're watching the show on

201
00:09:51,039 --> 00:09:53,600
Tuesday nights. That's why nobody else has that show is

202
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:57,559
because ESPN has an exclusive deal with the CFP committee.

203
00:09:57,759 --> 00:10:00,600
That's why ESPN has to say the things that they

204
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,159
have to say about YU. That's why they have to

205
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:06,919
leave them off that graphic because contractually they are obligated

206
00:10:06,919 --> 00:10:09,320
to do what's in the best interest of the CFP,

207
00:10:09,799 --> 00:10:12,159
not what's necessarily in the best interest of college fooble

208
00:10:12,159 --> 00:10:15,080
as a whole, because they have that deal.

209
00:10:15,919 --> 00:10:16,960
Speaker 5: Yes, indeed, so.

210
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 4: They do not want the free market of free speech

211
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:26,159
as it relates to sports like commentary. They do not

212
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,000
want to be held accountable to the truth of the

213
00:10:28,039 --> 00:10:30,960
matter because when you put the resume side by side,

214
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:35,159
it is it is inarguable yep. And that's why you're

215
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:36,960
seeing more and more people chime in on it, whether

216
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,679
it's a we'll compt it right. He's like, Hey, bways

217
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:43,039
getting screwed here RG three RG three, b y is

218
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:47,320
getting screwed here. Deve port and no ave portnite Provo David,

219
00:10:48,279 --> 00:10:49,399
They're getting screwed.

220
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 2: I mean, I feel bamboozled. I feel flamoxed about this situation.

221
00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:58,000
Speaker 5: I really do.

222
00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:02,440
Speaker 2: I feel like like I'm just glad that finally, I mean,

223
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:07,080
even brett Ormark finally getting after it Killanne getting after it.

224
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 5: BYU's social media.

225
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:14,879
Speaker 4: Department getting after it's right, Like they're all getting after it,

226
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,960
and we're seeing a little bit of sway, we're seeing

227
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:21,000
a little bit of rocking of the boat. So there's

228
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,240
a part of me that believes if BYU shows well

229
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,879
and this is like similar akin to what would happen

230
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:32,080
with SMU and Clemson, I could possibly maybe kind of

231
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,759
sort of see something happening there, right if they play

232
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:40,600
well at a neutral setting. Because there's less noise and

233
00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:44,080
less distraction now and more objective minds are starting to

234
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:47,679
rule the day and rule the voice of college football.

235
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,039
I just hope that they hold the College Football Playoff

236
00:11:50,039 --> 00:11:54,000
Committee to the fire a little bit more because you know,

237
00:11:54,039 --> 00:11:58,000
there's more advocacy. There's more advocacy now, and there hasn't

238
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:01,000
been that many advocates for BYU in a long time.

239
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:05,720
There's been very few advocates that are willing to go

240
00:12:05,759 --> 00:12:10,759
and defend Bring them Young, and it's sponsoring institution, period.

241
00:12:11,039 --> 00:12:15,080
So guys, let me also welcome into the show AP

242
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,039
Andrew Peterson, Andrew, how the heck are you mat?

243
00:12:18,039 --> 00:12:19,159
Speaker 5: How's Salt Lake City?

244
00:12:20,639 --> 00:12:23,559
Speaker 1: It's a little bit less snowy up here in Salt

245
00:12:23,639 --> 00:12:26,360
Lake than it was in Provo when I left. So

246
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:30,759
Salt Lake's not too bad, I I but I do

247
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,559
have a take on this conversation that you guys are having.

248
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 5: Number One, I agree with Brett and and you I don't.

249
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:40,840
Speaker 1: I agree with Brett when he said that the money

250
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,840
is what's doing this to BYU, the deal that ESPN

251
00:12:43,919 --> 00:12:47,240
has with college football playoffs with the SEC, I think

252
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:50,279
that's really what this is. But I hate to be

253
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:54,279
the guy that brings this up. But how does Brett

254
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:58,159
your Mark feel about Mark Harlan's advocacy for the Big

255
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:02,000
Twelve in there with BYU being so disrespected?

256
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:07,519
Speaker 4: Yeah, you wonder what Mark Harlan's messages to the committee

257
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:14,919
because he's supposedly the Big Twelve representative, right, And does

258
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,960
he feel still to this day that Utah is the

259
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,720
better team and it was stolen from them in Salt Lake,

260
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:25,039
and that Utah is the better team and they just

261
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,600
didn't show well enough to win. But they're the better team,

262
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,279
They're more talented, or you know all those things, right.

263
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,000
You know, if he feels that way, then what is

264
00:13:33,039 --> 00:13:36,480
he going to say, Well, he's gonna say that.

265
00:13:36,879 --> 00:13:38,879
Speaker 5: B YU they're a nice little program.

266
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,559
Speaker 2: They're a nice little team. They're a good little you know,

267
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,360
they're well coached, they're gritty, they're resilient. They're not the

268
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:49,240
best team to put into the College Football Playoff here. Yeah,

269
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,399
there's little to no advocacy on the College Football Playoff

270
00:13:51,399 --> 00:13:52,480
Comittee for b YU.

271
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 5: There just isn't.

272
00:13:54,639 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 4: There's no one that's like, hey, you know, no, they

273
00:13:57,279 --> 00:14:01,200
recruit well, they overachieve, or they have their recruiting rankings.

274
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,519
Maybe the talent at BOI is better than what the

275
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:09,720
recruiting rankings actually dictate because they're underrated, under ranked once

276
00:14:09,759 --> 00:14:12,240
they commit to BYU, As Colonias of Talking pointed out,

277
00:14:12,639 --> 00:14:14,679
as the data that we've accrued over the years has

278
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,679
pointed out, they're not going to pull up historical data

279
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,840
that says that BYU is the most underrated team in

280
00:14:20,919 --> 00:14:23,360
college football and the ap Pole era or even over

281
00:14:23,399 --> 00:14:24,240
the last decade.

282
00:14:24,879 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 5: You need someone to do that.

283
00:14:26,399 --> 00:14:29,600
Speaker 4: You need someone that's actually smart enough and I would

284
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:35,159
say has a high enough character to advocate and be ridiculed, okay,

285
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:40,600
interpersonally in a committee when you bring up factual data

286
00:14:40,639 --> 00:14:45,440
that is against the anecdotal confirmation bias of a bunch

287
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:49,799
of fallible humans that are incentivized by money.

288
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:56,120
Speaker 5: That could be corrupt, right, that's the issue.

289
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 4: I had this conversation with Brett Yormark at Big twelve meetings,

290
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:05,279
and I say, hey, why can't we have a combination

291
00:15:05,679 --> 00:15:12,639
of algorithm, metric, BCS, computerized system that takes into account

292
00:15:13,039 --> 00:15:16,320
all those data points that you want and wait it efficiently,

293
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,919
and then have a human element as well. Have the

294
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,399
human let you can wait it equally. Why can't we

295
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:22,720
at least do that? Why do we have to have

296
00:15:22,759 --> 00:15:25,600
a committee of all humans that yeah, they're gonna pull

297
00:15:25,679 --> 00:15:27,600
up some data, but they're not even willing to pull

298
00:15:27,679 --> 00:15:29,480
up the data for BYU that's in the mix.

299
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 5: They're not even willing to put it.

300
00:15:31,279 --> 00:15:34,519
Speaker 2: On on the screen because they don't want the propaganda

301
00:15:34,519 --> 00:15:37,399
out there and the movement towards BYU.

302
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 5: They want everyone to be hush, hush, quite quiet on

303
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:40,720
the DL.

304
00:15:41,039 --> 00:15:43,480
Speaker 4: These are the only teams that deserve to be in Oklahoma,

305
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:48,240
Notre Dame Alabama. The Brands well, they claimed to remember

306
00:15:48,399 --> 00:15:50,320
and coming into the season they're like, oh, we need

307
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:50,919
a new metric.

308
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,519
Speaker 2: So they went out and they built this. It's similar

309
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,159
to ESPN Strength of Record, metric. It's not the same.

310
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,519
Apparently it's proprietary, and so that's why they won't release it.

311
00:15:59,519 --> 00:16:01,240
But we know the real reason they won't release it

312
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:03,120
because if they did, then we would be able to

313
00:16:03,159 --> 00:16:06,679
actually tell them they were doing something wrong. But basically,

314
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:09,120
they wanted a metric to be able to really prove

315
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:11,559
to everyone that the SEC had the best schedule. So

316
00:16:11,559 --> 00:16:13,759
they went out and they got this strength of record metric.

317
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:16,159
Now ESPN has a very similar one. Is what we're

318
00:16:16,159 --> 00:16:18,240
told it's not the same, but we're told it's very similar,

319
00:16:18,799 --> 00:16:22,480
which is then hilarious because even this new metric that

320
00:16:22,519 --> 00:16:27,720
we got still says the the agenda the committee is

321
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:33,320
pushing for is not necessarily accurate. So we did kind

322
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:37,600
of add analytics to it. But even if you add analytics.

323
00:16:37,399 --> 00:16:39,639
Speaker 5: My mom used to say growing up, you can't fix stupid.

324
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, even if you give them the answers to what

325
00:16:44,159 --> 00:16:46,320
they're supposed to put down on the test, they can

326
00:16:46,399 --> 00:16:49,000
still be dumb enough to remember what's right and what's wrong.

327
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:51,759
And what's hilarious to me is I feel like every

328
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:54,799
year the easy cop out is man the committee sucks.

329
00:16:54,799 --> 00:16:57,320
Like we say that every year, regardless of how bad

330
00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:00,440
it is, and again now we're seeing it out our

331
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:04,640
front door with BYU. I just wonder like, how long

332
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,880
does the committee remain as is? And I pitched this

333
00:17:08,039 --> 00:17:11,880
yesterday on Bryson Bianucci. I said, maybe you have a mix.

334
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,640
Maybe you add media members and it's not all athletic

335
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,039
directors and it's not all media members. But I do

336
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:21,000
think there needs to be a different group of minds

337
00:17:21,039 --> 00:17:23,359
in there that's not just people who all see the

338
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,039
world one way and who all frankly live in a

339
00:17:26,039 --> 00:17:27,599
power to conference type of world.

340
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,640
Speaker 5: Yeah. I do think there needs to be some justine made.

341
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,480
Speaker 2: But what I think we should give the collegewall playoff

342
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:37,279
credit for is, in one year with a twelve team playoff,

343
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:39,759
we said, hey, that didn't work, and we changed it.

344
00:17:39,839 --> 00:17:42,759
They didn't like the way that conference champions, whether or

345
00:17:42,799 --> 00:17:44,559
not they were good enough, got a first round by

346
00:17:44,799 --> 00:17:47,400
so in one year we changed it. And that gives

347
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,039
me hope to say, Look, is the committee made some

348
00:17:50,039 --> 00:17:53,839
poor choices this year. Yeah, However, they do have systems

349
00:17:53,839 --> 00:17:56,640
in place that allow them to change and update as

350
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:57,759
things go along.

351
00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:59,359
Speaker 5: And you're not gonna have a perfect system right off

352
00:17:59,400 --> 00:17:59,680
the bat.

353
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,200
Speaker 2: So maybe as this thing goes along, we get closer

354
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:05,160
to a perfect system that doesn't fix BYU situation right now,

355
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:07,160
but hopefully that's hope for the future.

356
00:18:07,559 --> 00:18:07,759
Speaker 5: Yeah.

357
00:18:07,799 --> 00:18:11,440
Speaker 4: Harlan was called to serve on the committee on November thirteenth,

358
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,279
the week essentially after BA you lost to Texas Tech.

359
00:18:14,759 --> 00:18:15,839
Speaker 5: BYU has gone on a.

360
00:18:15,759 --> 00:18:20,759
Speaker 4: Three game winning streak and destroyed TCU forty four to thirteen,

361
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:24,880
beat up on the Bearcats at Cincinnati twenty six fourteen,

362
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:29,119
and then had a slow first quarter but then dominated

363
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:30,839
the rest of the way forty one to twenty one,

364
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,759
and covered. They covered all three of these games. Good

365
00:18:34,839 --> 00:18:39,720
teams win, great teams cover. They out kicked their coverage,

366
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,039
overachieved versus.

367
00:18:41,839 --> 00:18:43,279
Speaker 5: Vegas too, they killed it.

368
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:48,200
Speaker 4: And by the way, BYU against the spread this season

369
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:52,079
they have been elite. They've been one of the best

370
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:58,119
teams in college football. They are ranked number six in

371
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:02,799
college football against the they are nine and three, nine

372
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,039
and three. You know else is really good against the spread?

373
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,400
Speaker 5: Texas Tech. They're eleven and one.

374
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,400
Speaker 4: Ohio States ten one and one, Utah States ten and two.

375
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,359
Shoutouts to Bronco mennenhawkh North Texas is ten and two

376
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:18,839
Vanderbilts nine two and one. Okay, so you're you're taking

377
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,799
all this into account and you're hoping that the advocacy

378
00:19:22,279 --> 00:19:27,319
can push BYU's way and influence the committee in some way,

379
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:28,039
shape or form.

380
00:19:28,079 --> 00:19:29,039

405
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:57,640
off with one of the advocates that's that's willing and

406
00:20:57,759 --> 00:21:02,839
ready to put his name on the line. Three Robert Griffin, IID,

407
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:06,359
he states, and we'll listen to the saudio momentary. By

408
00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:09,039
you should be in the college football Playoff regardless of

409
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:11,599
the result of the Big twelve championship game.

410
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:12,599
Speaker 5: Let's listen in.

411
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 7: Do you think BYU has earned their spot into college

412
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:18,200
football Playoff?

413
00:21:18,319 --> 00:21:18,559
Speaker 5: Yes?

414
00:21:18,759 --> 00:21:21,759
Speaker 3: BYU has earned its spot in the college football playoff.

415
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 5: For a number of reasons.

416
00:21:22,759 --> 00:21:26,359
Speaker 3: One, they have an eleven to one record, all right,

417
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,240
and they made it to their conference championship game with

418
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:33,160
one loss. Any team in the Power for that makes

419
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:36,160
it to their conference championship game with one loss should

420
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:40,519
be in the college football playoff, period, regardless.

421
00:21:39,839 --> 00:21:42,759
Speaker 5: Of the result. Thank you okay, one or less losses,

422
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,960
you're in yes period. So when I see.

423
00:21:45,799 --> 00:21:48,279
Speaker 3: Right now that BYU has been ranked at number eleven

424
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,559
in the AP pole and they've been sitting there at

425
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:55,119
number eleven in the College Football Playoff rankings for weeks now,

426
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:58,680
despite the fact that they have less losses than teams

427
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,400
that are in front of them, Alabama being one of them.

428
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,400
And I know, hey, man, Alabama, Alabama's got the mystique.

429
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:06,559
Alabama's got a great team. They're ten and two. They

430
00:22:06,599 --> 00:22:08,559
made it to the SEC Championship game. But guess what

431
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:14,640
if Alabama loses. If Alabama loses in the SEC Championship,

432
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,720
they have three losses, they shouldn't be in the cost

433
00:22:16,759 --> 00:22:17,319
ball playoff.

434
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:24,920
Speaker 4: Boom boom baby, that's RG three. He also went off,

435
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:26,559
I sent you another clip.

436
00:22:26,599 --> 00:22:31,319
Speaker 2: This is I believe from I think from yesterday on

437
00:22:31,319 --> 00:22:37,000
his out of Pocket podcast, where he says, essentially stop

438
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,519
persecuting the Christians.

439
00:22:40,599 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 5: I love it, man. A lot of EAU.

440
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:45,519
Speaker 4: Fans feel like this is just religious bigotry that has

441
00:22:45,559 --> 00:22:50,000
extended throughout the last fifty years or even beyond that.

442
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:54,799
Speaker 2: Institutions of higher learning have never, like in the modern era,

443
00:22:54,880 --> 00:23:00,839
have not necessarily been pro conservative religious value. We've gotten

444
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,359
rid of God in our in our schools, We've gotten

445
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:04,160
rid of the Bible.

446
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:06,880
Speaker 4: We don't even do the Pledge of Allegiance anymore. I

447
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:11,960
used to sing songs of patriotism in my elementary school

448
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,279
that did. That was done away with. Now America is

449
00:23:14,319 --> 00:23:18,720
an evil nation, a horrible nation. We're being held accountable.

450
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:22,119
Speaker 2: For our sins of over a hundred, two hundred, three

451
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:23,119
hundred years ago.

452
00:23:23,519 --> 00:23:26,200
Speaker 5: It is what it is. So uh, you're you're taking

453
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:27,839
all that into accounting. You're like, okay, well.

454
00:23:27,759 --> 00:23:30,599
Speaker 4: Maybe RG three is onto something here with the with

455
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:33,519
the religious biggest we'd stop persecuting the Christians. The only

456
00:23:33,519 --> 00:23:36,079
thing that you could counter it with is Notre Dames

457
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:39,480
in front of them, and they are a Catholic sponsored institution,

458
00:23:39,559 --> 00:23:41,640
if I'm not mistaken. They have an houtocode as well. Yeah,

459
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:46,759
but that's more mainstreams Christian. It's it's no, it's a

460
00:23:47,039 --> 00:23:51,480
we have two types of Christians. We have credle Christians

461
00:23:52,079 --> 00:23:52,720
and then we.

462
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:58,400
Speaker 2: Have uh what would we call, you know, anthropomorphic Christians. Yeah,

463
00:23:58,519 --> 00:24:03,400
anthropomorphic uh Christians is a you know, not trinitarian Christians,

464
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:07,960
but true uh godhead Christians.

465
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:09,079
Speaker 5: I don't know.

466
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:13,079
Speaker 4: Man, anyway, let's do you have that sound bite by

467
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:15,400
chance with Okay, let's go and play that as well.

468
00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:19,720
Speaker 3: This is RG three in because they've won the games

469
00:24:19,759 --> 00:24:23,480
on their schedule in a power for a conference stop

470
00:24:23,519 --> 00:24:27,319
the persecution of the Christians. Man, come on, that's good,

471
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:29,440
b Y, you should be.

472
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:33,160
Speaker 5: In that his wife, yes, okay, yeah, she's like, that's good.

473
00:24:33,839 --> 00:24:38,279
Speaker 2: Yes from Oh, I want to say, I'm not even

474
00:24:38,319 --> 00:24:39,440
a guess because I don't want to be wrong. But

475
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,920
she's not from the United States. She ran track at

476
00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:43,799
Baylor and that's actually how they met.

477
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:45,200
Speaker 5: That's awesome. Yeah, that's a.

478
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:48,680
Speaker 4: That's sweet that she's a host alongside of her wonderful

479
00:24:48,759 --> 00:24:49,720
husband or G three.

480
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:54,440
Speaker 5: Anyway they they have. I wouldn't have guessed that one,

481
00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:57,720
so I'm glad I didn't try. Yeah. Yeah, I'd rather

482
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:02,839
just not know than be wrong some European nations. Yeah, yeah, exactly,

483
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:03,640
I don't want to do that.

484
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:09,079
Speaker 4: Yes, indeed, okay, so let's let's take a brief time out.

485
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:11,039
Speaker 5: But that's one of the advocates right now.

486
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:13,279
Speaker 4: That's what I actually, you know what I wonder if

487
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:16,400
do we have time for uh the Will Compton commentary

488
00:25:16,839 --> 00:25:21,680
Will Compton also go into bat for the BYU cougars.

489
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:26,200
This one has gotten some good traction on the social media.

490
00:25:26,279 --> 00:25:30,599
Will Compton, he's got a really he's got a robust platform.

491
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,839
Speaker 5: He really does. Uh. He was on I believe Get.

492
00:25:33,759 --> 00:25:36,680
Speaker 2: Up if I'm not mistaken yep, and uh, you know

493
00:25:36,759 --> 00:25:39,240
it's a it's a it's a small snippet here. But

494
00:25:40,079 --> 00:25:43,200
once again, like you have the these advocates coming out

495
00:25:43,279 --> 00:25:49,880
of the woodwork, those those that want truth, that are objective,

496
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:55,799
that are not like corrupted by confirmation bias.

497
00:25:56,519 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 5: What do they want? What are they willing to do? There?

498
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,720
Speaker 4: Willing to speak true? This is Will Compton. Do you

499
00:26:02,759 --> 00:26:03,240
have that one?

500
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:06,920
Speaker 5: Ap? Okay, I got it. I just said it to you again.

501
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:13,400
Speaker 4: Via DM Will Compton breaking down BYU's unfair CFP scenario.

502
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:17,559
Speaker 5: This was yesterday on Get Up on ESPN.

503
00:26:18,039 --> 00:26:21,759
Speaker 8: Sucks because that's another situation for BYU. Say BYU lost close,

504
00:26:21,799 --> 00:26:23,839
like they're eleven to one, if they lost close to

505
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:26,160
Texas Tech, the only team they've lost to you this

506
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:27,920
season would be Texas Tech.

507
00:26:27,839 --> 00:26:28,559
Speaker 5: Compared to Bama.

508
00:26:28,599 --> 00:26:31,559
Speaker 8: They're in no matter what these other multiple loss teams.

509
00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:34,200
It just shows it's like BYU is in a tough

510
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:36,079
spot because if they if they play a close game

511
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:38,319
like they're they're what, they're just out of the playoffs,

512
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:39,519
because that's.

513
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:46,319
Speaker 5: An there you go, that's that's Will Compton. Look. In

514
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:48,119
the modern era OK of.

515
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:53,640
Speaker 4: College football, there has never been a an eleven and

516
00:26:53,759 --> 00:26:58,880
one team that has not been in the top ten ESPN,

517
00:26:59,319 --> 00:27:02,839
Fox Sports, the Committee, they don't want you to know

518
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:06,559
that stat. They don't want that stat getting out. Nope,

519
00:27:06,839 --> 00:27:10,079
they don't want anyone questioning them with that stat. Did

520
00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:13,279
you know that there has never been an eleven to

521
00:27:13,279 --> 00:27:16,559
one team in the college football playoff era that has

522
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:19,960
not been in the top ten. What makes this this uh,

523
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,759
this uh year different? Why is it the rout? Well,

524
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,160
you know they would know how to answer it. Hunter

525
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:27,640
Eurocheck is gonna do his whole six to.

526
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:32,279
Speaker 2: Seven oh my god, and then say something to the

527
00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:36,720
fact of we have the deepest respect for Brigham Young

528
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,160
University as a program. And then they're gonna lean on

529
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:42,920
the eye test of well, they just weren't competitive versus

530
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:45,720
SECT guys. They were on the road versus the number

531
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:47,079
four team in the country.

532
00:27:47,319 --> 00:27:48,559
Speaker 5: Yeah, but they just weren't.

533
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,119
Speaker 1: Good enough that they don't is located.

534
00:27:51,839 --> 00:27:54,079
Speaker 5: They I don't even know if they do. They don't.

535
00:27:54,319 --> 00:27:58,119
Speaker 4: It's like to Lake City probably, it's like the Cincinnati fense.

536
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:01,000
They don't even know what the acronym stands for. Yeah,

537
00:28:01,039 --> 00:28:03,799
did you see that? They're going around asking the like

538
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:06,400
Cincinnati fans, like, what does by you stand for?

539
00:28:06,519 --> 00:28:10,440
Speaker 2: They're like, I have no idea? Like, no, I had

540
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,480
no clue. I did just find out. I feel embarrassed

541
00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:14,920
to say this, but I do feel like I should

542
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:15,480
be honest.

543
00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:15,640
Speaker 5: With the people.

544
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:17,920
Speaker 2: I just found out what the acronym are the rock

00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,960
stands for. I graduated from that university, by the way.

546
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:24,079
I just found out what the rock stands for last

547
00:28:24,079 --> 00:28:26,240
week when I was at the game. So you know,

548
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:31,200

00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:16,680

627
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:21,480
Speaker 2: The Utah one is still my favorite, but that one

628
00:32:21,559 --> 00:32:25,599
was was like an eight. I'd give it a high

629
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,680
high seven. This is the question I have though, you

630
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:31,000
think there's anybody in the locker room who's listening to

631
00:32:31,119 --> 00:32:34,359
entities to pregame, because I imagine somebody is, and they

632
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:36,319
just don't want anybody to know, because if anyone know,

633
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,279
they'd be really embarrassed. But I'm like, that thing goes

634
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:41,519
so hard that would put me up for sure.

635
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:44,119

Speaker 4: Look, the class of twenty twenty six for the BYU

Cougar football team was already a top twenty class. Phenomenal, right, beautiful.

654
00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:46,759
Now they added Jaren and Kennon Pula. Now, just to

655
00:33:46,839 --> 00:33:51,359
give you some feedback, they're both four stars. So you

656
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:56,079
added two more four stars to you're already robust list

657
00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:59,279

659
00:34:04,359 --> 00:34:08,239
four stars and just added two more. Impressive work by

660
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:11,719
the coaching staff those that were on the ground level

661
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:16,440
recruiting loan peak. Jared and Kenna were originally committed to UCLA,

662
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:19,559
they de commit, they commit to Utah, and now they're

663
00:34:19,639 --> 00:34:22,400
BYU Cougars. Six foot two and a half hundred and

664
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:24,480
eighty five pound wide receiver Jaron Pula.

665
00:34:25,199 --> 00:34:26,519
Speaker 5: He's been tremendous.

666
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:32,559
Speaker 4: Ken and Pula six two one ninety five safety, defensive back.

667
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:36,760
He's also risen very high. He's a wide receiver defensive back.

668
00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,119
They can play on both sides of the ball. I

669
00:34:39,159 --> 00:34:43,199
don't think they signed with BYU unless they feel like

670
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:46,199
they can come in and make an impact immediately true

671
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:49,159
freshman year at BYU. Next Jeason, give me your thoughts

672
00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:51,239
on this. Brett always bringing the hammer?

673
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:53,639
Speaker 2: Well, we actually had Ken and Pola on the show,

674
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:55,480
I want to say a month ago, and we did

675
00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:57,800
the event down at Crumbull and we were at Crumble

676
00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:01,320
and staying Crumble, staying hungry. I gotta say, like, this

677
00:35:01,559 --> 00:35:05,280
doesn't come as a shock to me. I have some

678
00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:09,679
family who goes to Long Peak and they're friends with

679
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:11,760
the Pola Twins, and they're like, yeah, I think he's

680
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:12,840
I think he's gonna flip.

681
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,639
Speaker 5: And the Pool Twins hadn't said that, but they could.

682
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:17,760
Speaker 2: My family could just tell from talking to him, like

683
00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:19,880
they're probably gonna And then we see him wearing the

684
00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:23,920
BYU glove and the state championship game, and then I

685
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:26,559
get a text from a family member today is literally

686
00:35:26,599 --> 00:35:29,800
a picture of them setting up the BYU stuff, and

687
00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:32,440
I'm like, holy cow. And we kind of knew this

688
00:35:32,599 --> 00:35:35,119
was coming, or at least we thought it was, because

689
00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:39,119
the rumor mill was pumping out that Ryder Lions was

690
00:35:39,159 --> 00:35:41,480
trying to get these guys to come to BYU at

691
00:35:41,519 --> 00:35:44,400
the time, they were committed to UCLA. So then they

692
00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:47,199
decommit from UCLA, it's like, oh, hey, maybe they're coming.

693
00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:49,039
Speaker 5: We actually didn't think they were at that point.

694
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 2: Then they flip and commit to Utah and then not

695
00:35:52,159 --> 00:35:57,159
too long ago December, so yeah, then like we find

696
00:35:57,159 --> 00:36:00,639
out that they're now signing with BYU because they didn't

697
00:36:00,679 --> 00:36:03,519
sign with Utah along with all the other Utah recruits

698
00:36:03,679 --> 00:36:04,719
a couple days ago.

699
00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:06,800
Speaker 5: This is incredible.

700
00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:10,480
Speaker 2: It just goes to show all the work that the

701
00:36:10,519 --> 00:36:13,679
guys in this recruiting class are doing to get other

702
00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:15,719
guys to come here. We know Brock Harris has been

703
00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:18,880
putting in work, brother Harrison, brother Lyons, they've been putting

704
00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:21,880
in work to get guys to convert those of the

705
00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:25,360
rest of the recruiting class to come to BYU. If

706
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:28,639
you if you have ever turned on ESPN, you saw

707
00:36:28,679 --> 00:36:32,400
the one handed snag in the play in the playoffs.

708
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:32,840
Speaker 5: A couple of weeks ago.

709
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:35,400
Speaker 2: It's gonna be so much fun to have these guys

710
00:36:35,519 --> 00:36:39,920
I again. You talk about it like they both are

711
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,800
athletic enough that like either one of them could play

712
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:43,599
both sides of the ball.

713
00:36:43,679 --> 00:36:46,559
Speaker 4: We'll see what happens. And I'm with you, like, given

714
00:36:46,599 --> 00:36:48,039
the amount of jumping around that.

715
00:36:48,039 --> 00:36:51,840
Speaker 2: They did, they're not going somewhere unless they feel like

716
00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:56,280
they're playing immediately and frankly, like you're losing Chase Roberts.

717
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:59,360
Speaker 5: So one or not one.

718
00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:01,760
Speaker 2: Or not if not both of these guys is definitely

719
00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:02,519
playing day one.

720
00:37:02,559 --> 00:37:04,119
Speaker 5: You need to reload.

721
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,559
Speaker 2: At that position, especially because Chase is like your big

722
00:37:06,599 --> 00:37:07,519
possession guy.

723
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:07,559
Speaker 8: Ye.

724
00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:10,360
Speaker 2: Both these guys are pretty big guys as well as

725
00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:13,639
being four star speed demon athletes who can do it all.

726
00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:16,840
This is a massive I mean like, this is like

727
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:19,119
eating a cake and it's not even the icing on

728
00:37:19,159 --> 00:37:21,239
top of the cake. This is like layering another cake

729
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:23,559
on top of the cake that you already had. This

730
00:37:23,639 --> 00:37:25,280
is not an icing or cherry on top of this

731
00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:27,559
is a whole other gift altogether. So to get the

732
00:37:27,599 --> 00:37:30,760
pool of twins here on a Friday, incredible work from

733
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:32,000
this recruiting class.

734
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:36,119
Speaker 4: Andrew Peterson also had ties has ties with Loan Peak

735
00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:39,760
and he was abreast of the situation. Didn't break any news,

736
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:44,079
let the kids drop their their switch commitment.

737
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:45,840
Speaker 5: But to ap you.

738
00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:48,679
Speaker 4: Know these kids, well, you know the situation that they've

739
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:51,400
been in and their trajectory and journey to be while

740
00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:53,159
you give me your eval of the situation.

741
00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:58,280
Speaker 1: Honestly, Ben, I could not be happier. I love Rider Lions,

742
00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:02,239
I love Brock Harris, I love Boo. But I've covered

743
00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:04,480
the Pulas for the last two years as a high

744
00:38:04,519 --> 00:38:07,119
school play by play announcer. I covered them at tim

745
00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:09,920
View when they were committed to UCLA. I had them

746
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:13,119
for a game, the Lone Peak versus Rum Game. Great game,

747
00:38:13,159 --> 00:38:16,920
by the way. This past year when they're committed to Utah.

748
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:18,920
I'm going to have to AI edit one of my

749
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,840
favorite play calls ever when I called Jared Pula a

750
00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:25,599
future ute on a sixty seven yard touchdown. But I

751
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:29,679
have every time I watched them. I just wish that

752
00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:33,800
they would be at BYU because they are the kind

753
00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:37,440
of guys that, if they went to Utah, could burn BYU.

754
00:38:37,639 --> 00:38:38,719
Speaker 5: I have never I don't.

755
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:41,280
Speaker 1: I don't remember a single drop from either one of

756
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:44,079
them in the two years that I've covered them. They're

757
00:38:44,119 --> 00:38:47,239
great players. I'm sure they have one or two there,

758
00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:50,280
but it's not off. They have shorthands, they can play

759
00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:52,320
both sides of the ball. They can play special teams,

760
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:56,400
which is where I probably see the immediate impact coming in.

761
00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:59,800
They could break into a too deep maybe next year

762
00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:02,800
on on offense or defense somewhere. But I see them

763
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:06,239
as as coming in as immediate special teams contributors.

764
00:39:07,519 --> 00:39:09,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think they're gonna they're gonna see some PT

765
00:39:10,119 --> 00:39:12,079
next year special teams and rotation.

766
00:39:12,639 --> 00:39:12,800
Speaker 5: Uh.

767
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:14,840
Speaker 4: You gotta get up to speed. You gotta come in

768
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:18,400
probably in January. You gotta typically if you're gonna play

769
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:21,239
as a true freshman, you gotta be a mid year.

770
00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:23,599
You gotta be a midyear. So if you're not a

771
00:39:23,639 --> 00:39:27,480
mid year, it's gonna be much more difficult, just gonna

772
00:39:27,519 --> 00:39:29,280
be much more difficult. You may not be seeing PT

773
00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:32,440
until mid mid season. Get into spring, get it, get

774
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:37,599
it abreast of the schematics and the playbook. Get up

775
00:39:37,599 --> 00:39:41,480
to speed with your your height, weight speed. Uh, and

776
00:39:41,599 --> 00:39:44,599
just you know, develop into a grown man at the

777
00:39:44,639 --> 00:39:45,360
collegiate level.

778
00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:47,239
Speaker 5: Then uh at once you're.

779
00:39:47,119 --> 00:39:49,840
Speaker 4: Acclimated, then you get in inserted I think in uh

780
00:39:50,159 --> 00:39:53,679
in fall camp at any rate. Big news for Brigham

781
00:39:54,079 --> 00:39:58,039
right now twenty one commits. Their overall rank is twenty first,

782
00:39:58,119 --> 00:40:01,079
but I imagine that could be a here shortly. We'll

783
00:40:01,079 --> 00:40:03,719
see how it plays out. But right now, the ranked

784
00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:06,039
twenty first in the country and their recruiting class. Rider

785
00:40:06,079 --> 00:40:10,880
Lions is the headliner, Bob Mulitalo, also a baller, offensive line,

786
00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:15,360
Brodcrris tight end, Adam Bywater linebacker, Ty Getchee tight end,

787
00:40:15,599 --> 00:40:20,800
Jaron Pula, wide receiver, Lopetti Mawala edge, Kennan Pula wide receiver,

788
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:25,480
defensive back, Jacks Tanner offensive line, Terrence Serion athlete, wide receiver,

789
00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:30,119
Braxton Lindsay linebacker, Kawei Akana. He's gonna probably play the

790
00:40:30,159 --> 00:40:32,440
defense side of the ball, but he's also an athlete.

791
00:40:32,679 --> 00:40:36,920
Legend Glasker wide receiver, Matthew Mason safety, Graham Livingston wide receiver,

792
00:40:37,039 --> 00:40:41,280
Parker Ord tight end, sep and Iah Latini athlete, Antonio

793
00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:46,320
Johnson cornerback, Neomiah Colgone defensive line, Justice Braithwait cornerback, and

794
00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:49,800
Devon Eka running back. Who's your favorite in this class

795
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:53,519
and why, gentlemen, who's your favorite recruit?

796
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,920
Speaker 5: Who's your favorite commit and why? Brett Hammer.

797
00:40:57,079 --> 00:40:59,079
Speaker 2: I think the fair answer is that no one should

798
00:40:59,079 --> 00:41:01,760
be allowed to say Ryder Lions because like, that's quarterback.

799
00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:02,920
Speaker 5: That's the easy.

800
00:41:02,679 --> 00:41:06,000
Speaker 4: Look quarter at the quarterback factory at QBU. It's too

801
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:08,840
low hanging of fruit. Yeah, everybody loves rder Lions Way

802
00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:09,079
to go.

803
00:41:09,199 --> 00:41:12,199
Speaker 2: You have a unique opinion for and I guess I'm

804
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:13,360
gonna take the other top guy.

805
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:15,559
Speaker 5: So it's not the most unique opinions, but I love

806
00:41:15,599 --> 00:41:16,360
Brock Harris.

807
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:19,760
Speaker 2: It is. I've been missing that Isaac Rex in my life.

808
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,559
And look, I love Carson Ryan, but we're not gonna

809
00:41:21,559 --> 00:41:24,679
get to see him again likely, so you.

810
00:41:24,639 --> 00:41:27,079
Speaker 4: Start going towards the future. Yeah, he's gonna be that

811
00:41:27,159 --> 00:41:27,679
next guy.

812
00:41:28,079 --> 00:41:30,480
Speaker 2: We've been missing the great tight end at b YU

813
00:41:30,599 --> 00:41:32,920
ever since we lost Isaac Rex, and I think Brock

814
00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:36,039
Harris has every possibility in the world to be that.

815
00:41:36,159 --> 00:41:39,000
He's a speed demon for a guy who plays wide receiver.

816
00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:41,559
We know he's a guy who again is recruiting a

817
00:41:41,599 --> 00:41:44,360
lot of these other guys to come to BYU. I

818
00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:47,119
think Brock Harris is just gonna be a BYU guy.

819
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:50,480
I think he'll be similar to what Isaac Rex was

820
00:41:50,519 --> 00:41:53,079
to this team, where he's just a heart. He's he's

821
00:41:53,079 --> 00:41:55,280
a heart of the offense. I'm really excited for what

822
00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:56,360
Brock Harris is gonna.

823
00:41:56,159 --> 00:41:56,920
Speaker 5: Bring to BYU.

824
00:41:57,320 --> 00:42:00,440
Speaker 4: Love that breakdown, AP, who's your favorite and why?

825
00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:03,280
Speaker 1: Well, I'm gonna go to the other loan Peak Night.

826
00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:05,320
I'm not biased at all. World class high school, by

827
00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:06,639
the way, go on Peak.

828
00:42:09,639 --> 00:42:13,480
Speaker 5: Bob Mouli Talo. But and here's my answer.

829
00:42:13,679 --> 00:42:18,119
Speaker 1: Because look at the offensive lineman that BYU has gotten

830
00:42:18,199 --> 00:42:19,360
over the past two years.

831
00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:20,679
Speaker 5: You've got Bob Mulaitalo.

832
00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:24,480
Speaker 1: You've got Jacks Tanner, You've got Austin pay from last year.

833
00:42:24,519 --> 00:42:26,639
You've got the kid who who committed to by you

834
00:42:26,679 --> 00:42:29,800
flipped Oregon and then came back. His name's slipping my mind,

835
00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:33,960
and he was a four star kid. BYU's building an

836
00:42:34,079 --> 00:42:38,000
extremely high level offensive line between those. In a couple

837
00:42:38,039 --> 00:42:41,039
of years, you're gonna see an offensive line with almost

838
00:42:41,079 --> 00:42:43,320
all four stars. You're gonna have wide receivers who are

839
00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:46,840
almost all four stars, with Cody Hagen, the pulas Le

840
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:51,679
Mason Waller. Like BYU is getting stacked that You've got

841
00:42:51,679 --> 00:42:54,639
the tight ends several four stars there, You've got ryder lines,

842
00:42:55,039 --> 00:42:59,920
You've got McKay Madison four star. BYU's recruiting has elevated

843
00:43:00,039 --> 00:43:01,400
to an unbelievable level.

844
00:43:01,639 --> 00:43:06,000
Speaker 5: But Bot is probably my favorite. Bot's a guy.

845
00:43:06,039 --> 00:43:08,320
Speaker 4: I mean, look, I think he should be a favorite

846
00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:13,239
on this list. There's no doubt about it why you

847
00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:19,760
win games versus power for opponents in the trenches. The

848
00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:25,639
reason why BYU during independence was not able to necessarily

849
00:43:25,679 --> 00:43:28,440
get over the hump, and to a certain degree, you

850
00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:30,280
can even say, like even during the Mountain West era

851
00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:32,360
was not able to get over the hump is because

852
00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:35,800
you weren't dominant on both sides of the line of scrimmage.

853
00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:38,400
Speaker 5: Excuse me, but.

854
00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:42,960
Speaker 4: Now you can recruit maybe a little bit higher level

855
00:43:42,960 --> 00:43:44,719
guy defensively and offensively.

856
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:46,400
Speaker 5: You have more resources.

857
00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:49,159
Speaker 4: You're you've really invested in the strength and conditioning, in

858
00:43:49,199 --> 00:43:53,719
the in the development and nutritional piece. So you, guys,

859
00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:57,679
you look at Bot and he's a guy that can

860
00:43:57,679 --> 00:44:01,719
compete for playing time immediately as a true freshman. He

861
00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:08,440
was compared by Kalani to Penn Sewell, an Outland Trophy

862
00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:12,840
winner and a first round pick, you know, second round

863
00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:15,559
pick Kingsley Sue Abatiya, Yep, you know what I mean. So,

864
00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:19,880
like that's what you're getting in Bot, and so you

865
00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:22,159
expect him to come in right away and compete at

866
00:44:22,159 --> 00:44:24,760
guard or tackle because you do have some guys graduating,

867
00:44:25,199 --> 00:44:26,599
guys moving on to the NFL.

868
00:44:27,199 --> 00:44:30,039
Speaker 5: So I think that's a great take. I love it.

869
00:44:30,079 --> 00:44:32,400
Speaker 4: Brock Carris to me, is is Dennis Bitta. I'm more

870
00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:36,800
refined Dennis Bitta. That's an awesome take. As far as

871
00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:39,880
who I'm most excited about, one of the things is

872
00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:44,440
a defensive player that I love is to see dogs

873
00:44:44,599 --> 00:44:49,000
up front, dogs on the defensive line. And I have

874
00:44:49,119 --> 00:44:53,679
been extremely impressed with Lopetti Moala, not only on our show.

875
00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:56,199
I don't know if you guys remember that interview with him,

876
00:44:56,199 --> 00:44:56,480
but he.

877
00:44:56,559 --> 00:44:57,599
Speaker 5: Was like I was blown away.

878
00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:00,239
Speaker 4: I was like, this kid is everything that I want

879
00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:05,159
my future sons to be. The way that he articulates

880
00:45:05,159 --> 00:45:07,800
a message, the way he plays on the football field.

881
00:45:08,199 --> 00:45:11,280
He is everything that you want as a BYU Cougar

882
00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:14,159
football ambassador and then a dog.

883
00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:15,199
Speaker 5: That's the dichotomy.

884
00:45:15,199 --> 00:45:19,679
Speaker 4: If you don't realize, Okay, people, the traditional BYU fan

885
00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:25,639
does not realize the difficulty of having a dichotomy of personality,

886
00:45:25,679 --> 00:45:31,000
a split personality of off the field, you're you're you're

887
00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:37,000
righteous and true and lovely and kind, and you abide

888
00:45:37,599 --> 00:45:41,719
by the principles and ordinances of the Gospel. You have

889
00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:44,480
a smile on your face, you know, and you're just

890
00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:47,360
you're just christ Like. And then when you step on

891
00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:53,840
the field to be a ravenous, murderous, vile not vile, you.

892
00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:55,960
Speaker 5: Know, but like you gotta be a dog. You gotta

893
00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:57,360
get after it. Like it is very hard.

894
00:45:57,480 --> 00:46:01,159
Speaker 4: Not ever can do that because traditional dogs, Okay, when

895
00:46:01,159 --> 00:46:05,679
they get off the field, they're a bit neandrotholic, you know.

896
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:09,719
Speaker 5: Sometimes they they they they're attracted.

897
00:46:09,199 --> 00:46:14,480
Speaker 2: To the the uh sometimes the laseivious lifestyle. Okay, they're

898
00:46:14,519 --> 00:46:17,400
more likely to get into otter code violations are you

899
00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:17,880
talking about.

900
00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:22,400
Speaker 5: I'm just saying, like they like to have fun. They

901
00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:26,199
go there a lot of testosterone. They're getting after it

902
00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:28,840
with the ladies. You know, they're they're they're.

903
00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:32,239
Speaker 2: Very active in the community that way. I'm just saying,

904
00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:34,400
like I'm I'm being real with you, guys. If you

905
00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:36,440
hate it, I'm just trying to be real with you.

906
00:46:36,559 --> 00:46:37,760
Speaker 5: Like and so.

907
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:42,679
Speaker 4: You you want the the dichotomy, right, but you want

908
00:46:42,679 --> 00:46:44,559
to you want to put them on a leash. You

909
00:46:44,599 --> 00:46:46,920
want to structure them a little bit. You wanna you

910
00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:49,000
gotta mentor them a little bit more. You gotta babysit

911
00:46:49,039 --> 00:46:49,840
them a little bit more.

912
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:50,280
Speaker 5: You gotta.

913
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:52,159
Speaker 2: But that's what you want to tell you. Now, I'm

914
00:46:52,159 --> 00:46:55,119
not saying little Petty's that guy. But I'm look, I

915
00:46:55,159 --> 00:46:58,519
played with lad I played with guys that were dogs.

916
00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:00,639
Okay that you had to put a leashaw on a

917
00:47:00,679 --> 00:47:06,639
little bit? Uh Maniah brown dog dog. He came from Nebraska.

918
00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:08,960
He was hanging out with my boy Richie Cognito. Do

919
00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:10,239
you know anything about Richie?

920
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:10,880
Speaker 5: You know what I mean?

921
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:13,440
Speaker 2: Like I mean he probably had to put a leash

922
00:47:13,519 --> 00:47:15,400
on Ritchie, you know what I mean, because he wasn't

923
00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:17,320
able to you know, he was He's like, I could

924
00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:17,639
do that?

925
00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:19,800
Speaker 5: Is you crazy? You know what I mean? Uh?

926
00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:23,199
Speaker 2: Vic Soto he gets to b Yu like I mean

927
00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:25,559
that DU's a dog. He was a tight end and then.

928
00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:28,880
Speaker 4: He converted a d n uh defensive defensive linear in

929
00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:31,280
the in the NFL. But he got into some mischief

930
00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:35,039
at BYU. A lot of Like I've had a lot

931
00:47:35,039 --> 00:47:38,360
of these guys and come through, and so you want

932
00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:41,960
to recruit the dog, but you want to put a

933
00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:42,800
leash on that dog.

934
00:47:42,679 --> 00:47:44,360
Speaker 5: Once they get the provo. Does that make sense?

935
00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:45,039
Speaker 9: Yeah?

936
00:47:45,239 --> 00:47:48,519
Speaker 5: And I think Moala's that guy. He does.

937
00:47:48,639 --> 00:47:53,800
Speaker 4: He's got the true dichotomy of personality that you want

938
00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:57,559
and the physical nature to be that beast. Kontu ton

939
00:47:57,599 --> 00:48:00,800
of Us is that guy. Keanu's perfect off field, and

940
00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:03,079
then you get him on the field and he's just

941
00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:07,480
ridiculously aggressive and violent, right and then the play stops,

942
00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:10,199
he's like, yeah, let me help you out, but during

943
00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:13,079
the whistle he wants to destroy you.

944
00:48:13,079 --> 00:48:13,679
Speaker 5: You know what I mean.

945
00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:17,159
Speaker 4: So anyway, I'm I'm all in on Mowana. That's who

946
00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:19,119
I'm I'm really engaged in now.

947
00:48:19,199 --> 00:48:21,719
Speaker 5: I hope. I don't know if he's going on a mission. First,

948
00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:22,800
I can't remember what he told.

949
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:27,719
Speaker 2: Us on on our our show, But like, I love Mowana, Vic,

950
00:48:28,199 --> 00:48:30,159
I know you want to step up to the mic here,

951
00:48:30,360 --> 00:48:30,679
you bet?

952
00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:32,840
Speaker 5: What do you got, Vic? Who you most excited about?

953
00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:36,519
Speaker 9: And why I'm going with Braxton Lindsay. I like that, Yes,

954
00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:39,440
ever since I saw his tape in the summer, the

955
00:48:39,559 --> 00:48:42,719
kid is just not only is he six three two

956
00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:45,480
twenty twenty five, he's an athlete.

957
00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:50,719
Speaker 4: I mean he has a lot of offensive Ye film him,

958
00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:54,360
he was like tight end slot wide receiver.

959
00:48:54,639 --> 00:48:55,400
Speaker 5: He's ridiculous.

960
00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:57,440
Speaker 4: He kind of reminds me of a if you pull

961
00:48:57,519 --> 00:49:01,480
up Spencer Hadley film from Connelle Washington. Spencer played in

962
00:49:01,519 --> 00:49:05,360
the NFL was one of our best linebackers. In the

963
00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:08,679
modern era, part of that LBU pipeline to the NFL.

964
00:49:09,079 --> 00:49:11,280
Speaker 2: He reminds of Spencer HADLEYU. Spencer Hadley played a ton

965
00:49:11,320 --> 00:49:13,440
of offense. It was a baller on offense.

966
00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:17,639
Speaker 9: Continued anyway, on defense. I just loved his tenacity. He

967
00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:20,360
was always around around the ball and you could see

968
00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:25,480
his instincts were incredible. You could see he anticipated really well.

969
00:49:25,519 --> 00:49:27,800
He seemed to be there before the ball got there.

970
00:49:28,159 --> 00:49:30,800
And so you know, he watches tape. He's probably really

971
00:49:31,079 --> 00:49:34,599
good at watching tape. So anyway, I always thought of

972
00:49:34,679 --> 00:49:39,400
who could replace Jack Kelly, you know, with his speed,

973
00:49:39,599 --> 00:49:43,480
just his ability, and I just like Braxton.

974
00:49:43,519 --> 00:49:45,320
Speaker 5: I think that he might be a kid that can

975
00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:46,480
come in and play right.

976
00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:49,599
Speaker 4: Away down SEC offers to come to BUYU Oklahoma love

977
00:49:50,320 --> 00:49:50,760
and that's what.

978
00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:55,159
Speaker 9: That's why I loved it, because Oklahoma just wanted him badly,

979
00:49:55,960 --> 00:50:00,559
and BYU just took him.

980
00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:01,280
Speaker 5: We didn't.

981
00:50:01,559 --> 00:50:07,039
Speaker 2: We're not stealing a college football playoff spot. We're stealing recruits. Yes, yeah, baby,

982
00:50:07,159 --> 00:50:07,719
that's what we do.

983
00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:11,800
Speaker 4: Steal all within the the laws of the NCAA, the

984
00:50:11,840 --> 00:50:15,400
all fair game, not infringing on any sort of uh,

985
00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:16,800
any sort of by laws.

986
00:50:16,920 --> 00:50:19,599
Speaker 9: But I'm really loving the alignment. By the way, the

987
00:50:19,639 --> 00:50:23,280
last couple of years. Jack Stanner, Oh my god, and

988
00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:25,920
the kid the center from Bishop Gorman that.

989
00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:29,360

Speaker 5: That was a really nice pickup.

00:50:48,599 --> 00:50:53,559
Speaker 4: Andrew Williams also a very nice pickup out of Kirksville, Missouri,

998
00:50:53,960 --> 00:50:57,079
Latu final off extacle. He was a Stanford commit. He

00:50:57,400 --> 00:51:00,519
decommits from Stanford. He comes with Koleepi his brother to

1000
00:51:01,639 --> 00:51:06,079
b Yu that was a really really nice uh switch up.

1001
00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:12,039
Speaker 2: And Austin pay that the legacy player four star offensive tackle.

1002
00:51:12,719 --> 00:51:16,039
Speaker 5: Loved that. Look, that's where games are one of laws.

1003
00:51:16,119 --> 00:51:17,880
Speaker 2: And then if you go over to the defensive side

1004
00:51:17,880 --> 00:51:21,159
of the ball, remember Noose is loose Nucy Tomway Payum

1005
00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:23,400
in the twenty twenty five class.

1006
00:51:23,599 --> 00:51:26,960
Speaker 5: Noocy, technically, I think is the highest.

1007
00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:30,320
Speaker 4: Rated guy that committed to be you in that class. Loose,

1008
00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:32,760
we need to falling out as a truefreshman.

1009
00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:36,159
Speaker 9: We need to send Stanford some Crumbled cookies and say

1010
00:51:36,199 --> 00:51:38,760
thank you for those young kids that we've gotten that

1011
00:51:38,840 --> 00:51:39,559
are playing.

1012
00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:41,679
Speaker 5: Right J Martin, Yeah, thanks for that.

1013
00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:47,880
Speaker 4: Absolutely, well take them, take all your cardinals, thank you. Yeah,

1014
00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:51,760
we can send them some state Crumble stay hungry motivation,

1015
00:51:52,599 --> 00:51:57,079
uh with a delicious cookie. Speaking of that, let's since

1016
00:51:57,119 --> 00:52:00,480
we since we talked Crumble. Dave Portnoy out in New

1017
00:52:00,559 --> 00:52:03,920
York City apparently stop by one of the many Crumbles

1018
00:52:04,199 --> 00:52:06,280
I believe their own. I think most of them are

1019
00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:08,719
owned and operated by Mike Wilson and Lisa Wilks.

1020
00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:11,440
Speaker 5: I's gonna say I think Zach Zach probably owns them.

1021
00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:14,599
Speaker 2: Two. I texted Mike and I was like, bro, we

1022
00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:18,079
got we got Dave Fortnoy and Crumble.

1023
00:52:19,079 --> 00:52:21,119
Speaker 5: City so awesome.

1024
00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:24,719
Speaker 4: Anyways, let's play that sound Dave Portnoy does the one

1025
00:52:25,159 --> 00:52:25,960
byte test.

1026
00:52:26,599 --> 00:52:32,079
Speaker 5: He typically does pizza. Now he's doing cookies. Oh okay,

1027
00:52:32,199 --> 00:52:33,599
real quick in New York City.

1028
00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:39,880
Speaker 7: Bonus Crumble review five fifty for a cookie. Now I

1029
00:52:39,960 --> 00:52:43,320
know how we afforded Klawonnie Boys Big Game tomorrow night.

1030
00:52:43,639 --> 00:52:46,159
I already bet him BYU win the NAT He's sixty

1031
00:52:46,159 --> 00:52:50,159
to one. Now, should BYU be in the playoffs regardless

1032
00:52:50,159 --> 00:52:52,079
of how they do against Texas Tech tomorrow.

1033
00:52:52,119 --> 00:52:55,159
Speaker 5: One hundred percent, billion percent. I won't even debate it.

1034
00:52:55,440 --> 00:52:57,480
Speaker 7: Anybody from no name who looks in the eyeby like

1035
00:52:57,519 --> 00:52:59,280
we deserve it is a fraud, a liar.

1036
00:52:59,320 --> 00:53:02,639
Speaker 5: And that's just shows what a Notre Dame person's all about.

1037
00:53:02,679 --> 00:53:06,719
Speaker 7: BYU, they have two better wins on their entire schedule

1038
00:53:06,719 --> 00:53:09,519
than Notre Dame. They have half the amount of losses.

1039
00:53:09,599 --> 00:53:13,239
They played the toughest schedule by every metric possible. BYU

1040
00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:15,760
should be in the playoffs regardless of what happens.

1041
00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:18,119
Speaker 5: The dumbest thing in the history of the world. Fine,

1042
00:53:18,239 --> 00:53:18,760
you want to.

1043
00:53:18,719 --> 00:53:21,239
Speaker 7: Throw stuff at us, Here's what we do at BYU.

1044
00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:22,719
Here's what Provo Dave does.

1045
00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:25,880
Speaker 5: We eat. We eat sugar, We eat Crumble cookies. We

1046
00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:28,840
pay five bucks for it. We support the cause. BYU,

1047
00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:32,320
they're gonna take out Ohio State. How about that one bite?

1048
00:53:32,320 --> 00:53:34,199
Everyone knows rules Crumble cookies.

1049
00:53:34,800 --> 00:53:40,559
Speaker 7: Shout out Kilani, he's back lifetime contract. Penn State Craft,

1050
00:53:40,559 --> 00:53:43,320
the guy Kraft. He's like, Hey, Michigan sore losers and

1051
00:53:43,960 --> 00:53:47,239
cheaters and losers, Buddy, you got the last recruiting class

1052
00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:47,639
in the country.

1053
00:53:47,639 --> 00:53:48,360
Speaker 2: I shut your mouth.

1054
00:53:48,400 --> 00:53:49,400
Speaker 7: Crumble cookie, one bite.

1055
00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:56,400
Speaker 5: Everybody knows the rules. Nine to eight.

1056
00:53:56,559 --> 00:54:01,320
Speaker 7: Crumble Cookie not biased at all, Dave, let's take down Tech.

1057
00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:04,280
By the way, if Texas Tech had an ounce of class,

1058
00:54:04,519 --> 00:54:06,480
they may actually like forfeit because.

1059
00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:08,599
Speaker 5: They're in and they shouldn't want they should help the

1060
00:54:08,599 --> 00:54:09,400
Big twelve. I don't care.

1061
00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:12,320
Speaker 7: We're gonna go beat him anyways, Texas uh b Yu

1062
00:54:12,480 --> 00:54:13,199
crumbled Cookie.

1063
00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:20,880
Speaker 5: Klan stays that's review. He literally takes like two seconds.

1064
00:54:21,119 --> 00:54:23,280
Speaker 2: It's on the palette on the tongue's like nine eight

1065
00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:28,760
nine eight non biased, and he goes on furthermore, if

1066
00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:31,199
Texas Tech had an ounce of class.

1067
00:54:31,199 --> 00:54:36,000
Speaker 5: Forfeit, their classless. If they win the game tomorrow, it

1068
00:54:36,079 --> 00:54:36,679
is love.

1069
00:54:37,079 --> 00:54:39,400
Speaker 4: Know that Joey McGuire has been one of the most

1070
00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:43,920
vocal advocates for speaking of advocacy like Joey McGuire, head

1071
00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:45,760
coach of the Texas Tech Red Raiders.

1072
00:54:45,599 --> 00:54:47,320
Speaker 5: Has gone out of his way.

1073
00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:51,519
Speaker 4: To to just just shower b Yu and Kilate with

1074
00:54:51,639 --> 00:54:54,440
love and appreciation and argue on their behalf.

1075
00:54:54,480 --> 00:54:56,320

Speaker 5: Shout out to Joey maguire man, wish him well.

1079
00:55:08,599 --> 00:55:12,360
Speaker 4: I did hold it against him that he denied that

1080
00:55:12,599 --> 00:55:17,159
spitgate occurred or did not occur at at Lavelle Edwards Stadium.

1081
00:55:17,239 --> 00:55:20,559
Speaker 5: But you know he's advocating for his players in the past.

1082
00:55:20,679 --> 00:55:22,039
In the past, you're forgiven.

1083
00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:25,239
Speaker 2: I believe in grace, Yes, I believe in forgiveness, the

1084
00:55:25,320 --> 00:55:29,320
laws of justice and mercy combined, and people can change,

1085
00:55:29,719 --> 00:55:34,079
people can repent, people can be transformed through the blood

1086
00:55:34,079 --> 00:55:34,360
of Christ.

1087
00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:36,159

1097
00:55:54,760 --> 00:55:55,599
