23
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:24,959
appreciate what wherever you're tuning in from, whether it be

24
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,719
the one O three point nine FM Dowalley, Utah County,

25
00:01:28,079 --> 00:01:31,920
remember Utah County. That's anywhere that where you haven't reached

26
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:35,480
Salt Lake. So from there, Springville, you know, getting down

27
00:01:35,519 --> 00:01:39,040
towards you know, pacing Utah County area. Guys, the one

28
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,680
O three point nine. Once you get past Draper, Riverton

29
00:01:41,719 --> 00:01:43,280
all there, and you get up in the south Salt Lake,

30
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,120
you're in salt Lake County. Now you need to switch

31
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,799
over to the ninety eight FM dial, ninety eight three

32
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:51,879
FM dial, that's how you can catch us. I still

33
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,599
get text messages about this about hey, you know, I'm

still on the old dial. I don't want to say

35
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:58,680
the name because the station doesn't want us to say that.

36
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:00,680
So you gotta go to the from dial one O

37
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:02,879
three nine or ninety eight three wherever you at, and

38
00:02:02,879 --> 00:02:04,959

66
00:03:11,719 --> 00:03:13,599
Speaker 4: I got a bone to pick with BYU and the

67
00:03:13,599 --> 00:03:14,400
pop Tarts Bowl.

68
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: Oh you got a bone?

69
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 2: Here's why, I said, Babe, she was going to the

70
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:20,719
store yesterday.

71
00:03:20,759 --> 00:03:22,759
Speaker 4: She's off because she's the teacher. Shout out to all

72
00:03:22,759 --> 00:03:23,319
the teachers.

73
00:03:23,439 --> 00:03:24,439
Speaker 1: Shout out to all the teachers.

74
00:03:24,439 --> 00:03:27,159
Speaker 2: So she got off early, so she has it, doesn't

75
00:03:27,159 --> 00:03:29,280
have the week work all this week. I said, hey,

76
00:03:29,439 --> 00:03:31,560
I know you're going to Walmart. I said, we got

77
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,120
a pre game. Okay, we have the pop Tarts Bowl

78
00:03:34,479 --> 00:03:37,360
on Saturday, and I frankly haven't had pop Tarts in

79
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:39,319
a few years. I said, we got to stock up

80
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:41,800
on pop tarts. She said, I got you. She went

81
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,680
to the store, she got the frosted strawberry, she got

82
00:03:45,719 --> 00:03:46,960
the key Betty cupcake.

83
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 4: She brought him home. She left. I came home after

84
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:54,879
doing the show yesterday. I get home and uh, Ron,

85
00:03:55,479 --> 00:03:59,439
I don't know what happened. It was a blackout.

86
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,039
Speaker 2: Blur, but the next thing I know, I was already

87
00:04:02,039 --> 00:04:03,120
two packs deep in.

88
00:04:03,159 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 4: The hot Darts and I had already eaten four.

89
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:10,319
Speaker 2: And so I just know with Christmas, with some of

90
00:04:10,319 --> 00:04:12,479
the baked goods that are gonna be flying around over

91
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,199
at my in laws, I already know I'm adding a

92
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:16,000
couple pounds.

93
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:17,079
Speaker 4: I didn't need.

94
00:04:16,959 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 2: BYU to force me to eat these pop tarts to pregame,

95
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:23,920
and I'm gonna be eating even more on Saturday. So

96
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,639
I don't know what happened, but somehow I ended up

97
00:04:26,639 --> 00:04:28,160
eating four pop Tarts yesterday.

98
00:04:28,199 --> 00:04:29,639
Speaker 4: And we'll see if I go back to back when

99
00:04:29,639 --> 00:04:30,439
I get home today.

100
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:31,439
Speaker 3: Yeah.

101
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 1: Man, the Frost's strawberry is the oguh.

102
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,639
Speaker 4: Pop Tarts is to go Tom Brady of pop Tarts.

103
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,600
Speaker 1: Tom Brady of pop Tarts, Ye, one hundred percent that is.

104
00:04:38,639 --> 00:04:40,560
It definitely is the goat. So I think the strawberry

105
00:04:40,639 --> 00:04:42,360
is definitely the best one. I've been told the hot

106
00:04:42,399 --> 00:04:45,480
coco you know by a sources that the hot cocoa

107
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,879
is good as well. Yes, I've been told by sources,

108
00:04:48,959 --> 00:04:50,759
so I'll have to try some. Look, I'm gonna be

109
00:04:50,759 --> 00:04:53,879
in Orlando. They're gonna have pop Tarts tasting on Friday

110
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:57,439
the twenty sixth, the day after Christmas, So I'm gonna

111
00:04:57,439 --> 00:04:59,439
be doing some pop tart tasting. They're gonna have a

112
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,639
gormey for the media too, so treating us right there

113
00:05:02,639 --> 00:05:05,079
at the pop Tars Bowl. So I appreciate them taking

114
00:05:05,079 --> 00:05:07,560
care of us, but we're gonna take care of you guys.

115
00:05:07,639 --> 00:05:09,959
To day. We got a star stead of cast might

116
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:11,839
switch up to nitty gritty. I think I heard it

117
00:05:11,879 --> 00:05:14,079
from a little birdie. We're gonna find out what players

118
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,519
are gonna be maybe playing in the Pop Tards Bowl,

119
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,439
and what players might not be playing. So we'll get

120
00:05:19,439 --> 00:05:22,360
to here momentarily, we'll discuss Kevin Young postgames sound depending

121
00:05:22,399 --> 00:05:24,600
maybe a little bit of breaking news Jay Drew of

122
00:05:24,639 --> 00:05:26,120
the Desert News, who join us at three oh five.

123
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,639
We're gonna get into post game sound from Richie Saunders

124
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,279
and Robert right at three thirty. Get caught up with them.

125
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,399
Richie scoring in double excuse me, not just double figures,

126
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:39,079
but scoring twenty points again. A couple of weird stats

127
00:05:39,079 --> 00:05:40,560
for you guys that I'm also gonna put out there.

128
00:05:40,639 --> 00:05:46,480
Richie now has had three three pointers or more. I

129
00:05:46,519 --> 00:05:49,360
think it's twenty four times now in his career, which

130
00:05:49,399 --> 00:05:51,560
is ninth all time weird stat for you. Brett Where's

131
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,480
to Today? Brought to you by vanderwalthbandewolf dot com. He

132
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,240
is now tied with Jackson Robinson, I think Mike Rose.

133
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:03,279
So that's just crazy that Richie has been what delivering

134
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:07,000
again and again on three point shots and look, I'm

135
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,439
telling you this guy has an opportunity to hit one

136
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,920
hundred and three. So we'll discuss that more of three thirty,

137
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:13,959
get into a little insider report, get into a little

138
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,279

00:06:29,759 --> 00:06:31,879

145
00:06:31,879 --> 00:06:34,199
how he's been KBA Kaid of the impact and how

146
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,439
BYU's missed him and what he brings, and maybe even

147
00:06:37,439 --> 00:06:39,680
ask him has he even seen the new guy Abdullah Mail,

148
00:06:39,759 --> 00:06:41,720
what he can add to the team and his non

149
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:45,759
conference slated and BYU basketball, BAU Basketball's momentum. Excuse me.

150
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:47,800
We will also have Jared Bledsoe at five point thirty

151
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,319
to close out the show, the former BYUI receiver gonna

152
00:06:50,319 --> 00:06:52,600
discuss how big of a deal is it having Notre

153
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,879
Dame and BYU in the home and home the receiver room.

154
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,079
What did they need from the portal? Maybe? What did

155
00:06:58,079 --> 00:07:01,600
they need offensively from the portal? And generally along with

156
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,600
what they're bringing in, they're gonna bring in Devon Ecka,

157
00:07:03,879 --> 00:07:06,079
gonna bring in Jared Pula Keenan Plue's gonna play on

158
00:07:06,079 --> 00:07:08,120
the defensive side of the ball. Sounds like he'll play

159
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:11,439
at safety from what from what I hear, so that's

160
00:07:11,439 --> 00:07:13,879
gonna matter. I've also heard rumblings, and I think you've

161
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,279
ard rumblings too, Brett, that b AU is going out

162
00:07:16,279 --> 00:07:18,319
to get a receiver, but a big time receiver. Which

163
00:07:18,319 --> 00:07:19,199
receiver would that be?

164
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:19,920
Speaker 2: Uh?

165
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,279
Speaker 1: Is that a receiver that's in the Conference Big twelve?

166
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,480
Chase Browns and in the conference there? You know b Yu,

167
00:07:25,639 --> 00:07:27,959
Darius Lasher, Steel Tray Spivey needs to be in the

168
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,600
by uniform? Is it him? Is it a receiver from

169
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:31,199
the Big ten?

170
00:07:31,639 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 4: Uh?

171
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,639
Speaker 1: You know Oregon a dB just went into the portal.

172
00:07:34,879 --> 00:07:37,800
There's LDS ties Texas a linebacker went in. He's an

173
00:07:37,879 --> 00:07:41,120
LDS kid, so who will join BYU. That's a little

174
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,000
bit more of a discussion in the next couple of

175
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,879
weeks as the season finishes up, but we'll touch on

176
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,600
it with Jared in the five thirty segment and then

177
00:07:48,639 --> 00:07:50,480

178
00:07:50,519 --> 00:07:53,480
further ado, let's get right into the nitty gritty brought

circuit Electric Utah dot com. All right, we might shift

00:09:12,879 --> 00:09:14,840
a little bit. We're gonna still discuss some Kevin Young

00:09:14,879 --> 00:09:21,039
postgame sound but uh kilane soa Taki excuse me, discusses

201
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,200
the status of l J. Martin. I got I got

202
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:27,679
word late last night that hey, LJ might not might

203
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:29,120
not you know, play, And I'm like, what do you

204
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:30,080
mean might not play?

205
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:30,679
Speaker 4: Uh?

206
00:09:30,759 --> 00:09:32,679
Speaker 1: You know, people like is he gonna opt out? Kolonie

207
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,960
gives us an update. Let's hear from Kline Sataki on

208
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,000
the status this is practice and being at practice today,

209
00:09:39,039 --> 00:09:41,240
on the status of l J Martin him going into

210
00:09:41,279 --> 00:09:42,320
the ball game. Let's tune in.

211
00:09:42,919 --> 00:09:45,039
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean usual, we're gonna have their lean on

212
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,080
some of the young guys, you know, and then obviously

213
00:09:47,159 --> 00:09:49,559
we we needed we have some great depth on the

214
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,879
team and uh with with with LJ not being able

215
00:09:52,919 --> 00:09:56,000
to play in this game. I think everybody kind of

216
00:09:56,039 --> 00:09:58,519
knows that there's the uh, there's a there was a

217
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,879
small window for him to get the surgery done, and

218
00:10:01,919 --> 00:10:04,399
so you know, his decision is going to be whether

219
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:07,159
he comes back and plays the senior year or whether

220
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:11,440
he goes to the NFL. So with that in mind,

221
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,279
there was a small window where he could have the

222
00:10:13,279 --> 00:10:15,679
surgery done now or if he had to wait, then

223
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,240
it would prolong it too long where it wouldn't be

224
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:21,919
beneficial for him either way. So with that being said,

225
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,159
I mean, he's been with us the entire time when

226
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,279
the practices. He's recovering at home right now, but then

227
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,039
he'll be back out here to watch these guys and

228
00:10:29,399 --> 00:10:32,360
cheer on his brothers on Saturday. So bearing those guys,

229
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:33,759
we were gonna have to rely on some depth from

230
00:10:33,799 --> 00:10:36,279
the running back room. But for the most part, we

231
00:10:36,279 --> 00:10:37,840
should have a lot of the guys. Some guys are

232
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,399
still nursing some injuries and they need to prep this

233
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:41,440
week to get ready for the game.

234
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:44,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, Brett, there it is right. I said

235
00:10:44,759 --> 00:10:47,000
we would switch. We'll get into the Kevin youngsownd maybe

236
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:51,360
in the three thirty segment, do a prolonged so we're

237
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:52,879
may able to get into insatur orfore we need to

238
00:10:52,879 --> 00:10:56,000
push that back because this is some big time breaking

239
00:10:56,039 --> 00:10:59,879
news updated for US. LJ. Martin, you know, I said,

240
00:10:59,919 --> 00:11:01,960
you guys, I got pinged last night of he might

241
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,360
not play. I was confirmed on the confident, was waiting

242
00:11:04,399 --> 00:11:07,000
for Kilane to say something, and here it is. He's

243
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,960
not gonna play. He had surgery. I can confirm he

244
00:11:10,039 --> 00:11:12,240
definitely had the surgery. It was a small short window

245
00:11:12,519 --> 00:11:16,000
per Kalanne, and he's not gonna participate in this game.

246
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,080
He will be out there, will recover. He is in

247
00:11:18,159 --> 00:11:19,960
high hopes, he is in high spirits that people want

248
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,200
to know why. That's That's all I really say on

249
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,879
the matter in regards to Lj's injury. But now, like

250
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,240
Klanie said, Brett got to make a decision. Is he

251
00:11:28,279 --> 00:11:30,559
gonna come back, which I've heard rumblings that you know,

252
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:32,720
there's a good chance he could come back, but he's

253
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,720
not gonna play, not gonna play in this game. Brett.

254
00:11:35,759 --> 00:11:38,639
Your reaction to Kilanie's saying this, I'll ask you the question,

255
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,240
big deal, not a big deal, especially with Bear getting

256
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:43,919
rolled up on it. At Texas Tech game. I think

257
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,200
Bear is gonna be more on the extremely healthy side

258
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,679
above eighty percent. But how big of a deal is

259
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,600
this BYU gonna be out there leading rusher the Big

260
00:11:52,639 --> 00:11:55,159
twelve offensive player of the year in LJ.

261
00:11:55,279 --> 00:12:00,879
Speaker 2: Martin, I feel like this bite not be a popular

262
00:12:00,919 --> 00:12:04,120
take and I'm fine a ride or die with this today,

263
00:12:05,639 --> 00:12:08,639
but I don't I don't know if it's a big

264
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:16,039
deal because emotionally, ron all of my emotional energy was

265
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,519
tied up in the Big Twelve championship.

266
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:20,320
Speaker 4: And not making the playoffs.

267
00:12:21,159 --> 00:12:24,879
Speaker 2: Everything after that is kind of a Hey, I'm really

268
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:28,000
glad we have it, but it's not really like.

269
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 4: End of the world game breaking for me.

270
00:12:31,039 --> 00:12:35,759
Speaker 2: So emotionally, to me, it's not a huge deal because

271
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,679
win or lose against Georgia Tech, you're still not competing

272
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,879
for a national championship. And that's not a take at

273
00:12:41,879 --> 00:12:45,240
by you, like, that's just the reality of the situation

274
00:12:45,399 --> 00:12:47,840
that we're living in right now. As far as it

275
00:12:47,919 --> 00:12:52,159
goes for the game on Saturday, when you add in

276
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:57,240
the idea that Bear may not be one hundred percent

277
00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,679
for this game on Saturday, even though we're pretty sure

278
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:03,720
he's going to play here's what makes this interesting, Ron.

279
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 4: This is the first.

280
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:10,759
Speaker 2: Game we've had this season, I believe where LJ Martin

281
00:13:11,279 --> 00:13:16,080
didn't start the game. Every other game that we've watched

282
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:17,720
this season, we saw him play a couple of games

283
00:13:17,759 --> 00:13:20,080
last year or missed a couple games last year. But

284
00:13:20,279 --> 00:13:26,080
this year, every time he played, every time, every game

285
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,159
they had, we knew we were going to have him.

286
00:13:28,159 --> 00:13:30,720
And the one game that you didn't have him was

287
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:35,440
really Iowa State, and that one by you just kind

288
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:36,639
of turned it on and said, hey.

289
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:37,639
Speaker 4: We're gonna throw the football.

290
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 2: So it'll be interesting to see the game plan BYU

291
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,799
comes up with knowing they're not going to have LJ

292
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,240
coming into the game, and how does that affect them

293
00:13:49,279 --> 00:13:52,080
going forward because they also may not have bear to

294
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,440
run the football. So will they just go, hey, we're

295
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:57,840
gonna throw the football. What are they gonna do? I'm

296
00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:01,840
gonna be really curious to see how BYU decides to

297
00:14:01,879 --> 00:14:04,440
move forward with this knowing they're not gonna have LJ.

298
00:14:05,039 --> 00:14:08,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, you bring up a good point, right of I'm

299
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,440
interested to see this too. What do they do? The

300
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,480
Iowa State game is a I love to take. LJ

301
00:14:13,759 --> 00:14:17,480
started the game but got hurt, easier to adjust. Okay,

302
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,639
it's gonna throw the football, yep, Now it's okay, how

303
00:14:20,639 --> 00:14:23,919
do we game plan without him? So there's a difference.

304
00:14:23,919 --> 00:14:25,679
You scrap the game plan and say, let's just go

305
00:14:25,759 --> 00:14:28,960
to this. You're bringing in a new game plan that honestly,

306
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,559
and look, I don't want to be negative, but could

307
00:14:32,559 --> 00:14:35,600
that game plan even be successful? Sometimes it's good to

308
00:14:36,039 --> 00:14:38,159
just have to make adjustments on the fly and live

309
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,200
with the results. Could be the case if you need

310
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,679
to air the ball out against Georgia Tech. I think

311
00:14:43,679 --> 00:14:44,919
that they could do the same thing they did to

312
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,679
Iowa State, especially with the way the defense plays now.

313
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:51,399
Rock Lebec is not as mobile as you know, Haines King,

314
00:14:51,559 --> 00:14:53,759
So that's gonna be a little bit of a different challenge.

315
00:14:53,759 --> 00:14:55,399
The defense is really gonna have to be locked in.

316
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,480
But if they need to throw this the football on

317
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:00,519
Georgia Tech, they can do it. They got Chase Robbers,

318
00:15:00,559 --> 00:15:04,080
who's healthy. They got Parker Kingston. Jojo Phillips, you know,

319
00:15:04,159 --> 00:15:05,600
doesn't need to learn how to not you know, catch

320
00:15:05,639 --> 00:15:07,279
the ball in his chest with his hands like a

321
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:09,919
triangular shape. I hate to be critical and judgmental, but

322
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:11,840
that's just the truth. But he's out there. He's a

323
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:13,440
guy who's been in the system. He's great in the

324
00:15:13,519 --> 00:15:16,679
run blocking game. Is this a game where you rely

325
00:15:16,799 --> 00:15:19,799
on Tatanicou and Reggie Fishnick you unload the chopper. Look,

326
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:21,840
there's nothing that you can show in this ball game

327
00:15:21,879 --> 00:15:24,120
that guys are gonna go back and look at on tape.

328
00:15:24,679 --> 00:15:26,679
You know, next season they're gonna be like, you know, yep,

329
00:15:26,799 --> 00:15:28,720
when they got this guy, they're gonna run this exact

330
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,159
play bo. He's gonna have a brand new, brand new

331
00:15:31,159 --> 00:15:34,200
wide receivers, brand new titands. The game plan is gonna

332
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,600
be completely different. So if I'm ray Rod, I would

333
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,080
show not everything deep in your playbook. I would show

334
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,799
some good things. Show something with Reggie Freshneck, show something

335
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,399
with Tatanikua. Get on those guys le Mason and Dahmer

336
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:45,879
in the portals so they're not gonna be playing in

337
00:15:45,919 --> 00:15:48,440
trappling in this game. Go ahead and showcase that. So

338
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,519
I'm with you, Brett is who do they know? Young

339
00:15:50,519 --> 00:15:52,600
guys need to step up. We've been asking for we've

340
00:15:52,639 --> 00:15:55,720
been joking about it. Logan pain dad plays. Is this

341
00:15:55,799 --> 00:15:57,879
a game that he plays in? Is this a game

342
00:15:57,879 --> 00:15:59,960
where Sioni Moye is healthy. Brett, you've been waiting to

343
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,320
see that. We know what he is capable of doing,

344
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,879
but we haven't seen it. Can he do that in

345
00:16:04,919 --> 00:16:07,559
this game? Can they rely on? He played well in

346
00:16:07,639 --> 00:16:09,759
the last year and Ala mobowler I thought in the

347
00:16:09,759 --> 00:16:11,840
reps that he had I didn't think he played terrible.

348
00:16:12,159 --> 00:16:17,000
So what can what can give you? We'll find out

349
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:20,720
pressing rexcat back, he's gonna have an opportunity. Who with

350
00:16:20,919 --> 00:16:23,559
LJ being out and Devon Echa coming in and going

351
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:24,879
to the port. I just want to tell the bo

352
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:26,320
you running back. So I know they're not listening, but

353
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:30,440
I want to tell the fans this, there's an opportunity

354
00:16:30,559 --> 00:16:32,720
to put your name in the conversation of more playing

355
00:16:32,759 --> 00:16:35,600
time for next season. Who's going to do it? Is

356
00:16:35,639 --> 00:16:39,159
my question? Because if LJ comes back, he's taking majority

357
00:16:39,159 --> 00:16:41,840
of the garries, not all of them, right, Brett and

358
00:16:41,879 --> 00:16:44,240
then Devon Ekka. We've heard from Will Snowden on the show.

359
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,320
We have heard from his offensive line coach Jason Anderson.

360
00:16:47,639 --> 00:16:49,639
He's gonna come in and play and be an impact player.

361
00:16:49,639 --> 00:16:52,480
They expect him to play. An Roticas likes what he

362
00:16:52,519 --> 00:16:53,039
sees in them.

363
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:53,559
Speaker 4: We have.

364
00:16:53,679 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 1: We have to talk to Harvey to see what Harvey likes.

365
00:16:55,679 --> 00:16:58,360
But I guarantee TJ. Woods and Harvey Junger are gonna

366
00:16:58,399 --> 00:17:02,879
like him. He's more flashy, so you're not gonna This

367
00:17:02,919 --> 00:17:05,480
is how the college athletics works. They're always bringing in

368
00:17:05,519 --> 00:17:07,759
someone to up the position better and take your spot.

369
00:17:08,039 --> 00:17:10,480
They're always thinking about the future. If you don't want

370
00:17:10,519 --> 00:17:12,240
someone to take your spot. And this is what the

371
00:17:12,279 --> 00:17:15,400
mongoose will say, Benjamin J. Criddle, you know, well Walt Williams,

372
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,480
you know, with a joke about that, don't let him

373
00:17:17,519 --> 00:17:20,079
take your spot. Or if somebody goes down, step up

374
00:17:20,079 --> 00:17:21,960
in a big moment, you want to talk about the

375
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,680
goat strawberry pop tarts. Tom Brady, I mean a guy

376
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:26,920
got hurt and they went with Tom and never looked

377
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:28,920
back after that. Granted, there was a little bit of

378
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,039
you know, age and injury and other things playing in

379
00:17:31,039 --> 00:17:32,920
a factor, but the point of the principle is the same.

380
00:17:33,039 --> 00:17:34,920
When you get your opportunity to make the most of it.

381
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:38,039
Tom Brady always said that don't squander that because it's slim.

382
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:40,279
Same thing goes in college football now because Brett, you

383
00:17:40,279 --> 00:17:41,519
and I talk about it all the time, and you

384
00:17:41,559 --> 00:17:43,920
always are reminded me, Ron, this is like the pros

385
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,319
though you're getting paid. This is what it is. This

386
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:49,359
is a business. It's no longer what it used to

387
00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:50,680
be back in the day. Yeah, you still want to

388
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:52,640
play for a coach, all that matters, but they're bringing

389
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:56,000
in guys to up your position. So does Sione step

390
00:17:56,079 --> 00:17:59,240
up Brett? Does Preston Rex step up? Does Joe Vessa

391
00:17:59,279 --> 00:18:02,559
De Mooney, Steffuse Logan pains? Is someone this Charles mus is.

392
00:18:02,559 --> 00:18:05,319
It's someone that we don't know will step up. We're

393
00:18:05,319 --> 00:18:07,680
gonna find out, but you will have the opportunity. Now

394
00:18:08,039 --> 00:18:12,920
Kalani was declared of Brett, lj's not gonna play. Had

395
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:14,960
the surgery. Small window was the best time from to

396
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,160
get it. Remember that was the shoulder that he dinged up,

397
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,680
so got surgery on that took care of it. So

398
00:18:19,799 --> 00:18:21,960
he's good for next season or the NFL Draft, whatever

399
00:18:22,079 --> 00:18:25,119
LJ decides to do. But LJ will not participate in

400
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,759
this game. RB one, the Big Twelve offensive player of

401
00:18:27,799 --> 00:18:29,920
the year, will not suit up for the Pop Tarch Ball.

402
00:18:30,599 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 2: Here's what's I mean significant is we had this conversation

403
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:40,519
yesterday with Abdullah Ahmed where we said. It tells you

404
00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:43,759
a lot about Kevin Young and his decision making and

405
00:18:43,799 --> 00:18:46,759
what he sees in Abdullah. The fact that Abdullah has

406
00:18:46,799 --> 00:18:50,039
had one and a half practices and they're willing to

407
00:18:50,079 --> 00:18:52,519
throw him out there and play. It tells me the

408
00:18:52,599 --> 00:18:56,559
complete opposite ron when we've seen this BYU football team

409
00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:01,119
through thirteen games now, in an opportunity when you needed

410
00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:04,839
a running back, when Bear was hurt and LJ was hurt.

411
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:06,759
Speaker 4: And you still didn't go to somebody.

412
00:19:07,839 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 2: That tells me that either you wanted to save guys

413
00:19:13,279 --> 00:19:16,759
for red shirts, which I don't know. I haven't gone

414
00:19:16,839 --> 00:19:20,279
back in the numbers and looked at Joe Vesa in Preston,

415
00:19:20,319 --> 00:19:22,559
so I don't know how much I would buy that, or.

416
00:19:22,559 --> 00:19:26,759
Speaker 4: It tells me we're not super duper confident.

417
00:19:26,839 --> 00:19:29,240
Speaker 2: And maybe that's you're not confident because they haven't gotten

418
00:19:29,279 --> 00:19:31,960
the reps, because they've been hurt a number of other things.

419
00:19:32,079 --> 00:19:34,680
Speaker 4: But you can't dispute to me. You can't tell me

420
00:19:34,759 --> 00:19:35,359
both things.

421
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,960
Speaker 2: You can't tell me I'm really confident in the running

422
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,480
back room and then also tell me when we need

423
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:42,400
the running back room, we didn't put them out on

424
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:44,400
the field in a game like Texas Tech, in a

425
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:50,440
game like Iowa State, And so to Kialani's point, this

426
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,480
is kind of a show at moment. You don't have

427
00:19:53,559 --> 00:19:57,400
any other options. You can't just say, hey, what's a

428
00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:59,319
band aid. We can stick on this thing until we

429
00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,359
get out of the game. No, you're going into it

430
00:20:01,559 --> 00:20:04,519
knowing you are not going to have LG. You're going

431
00:20:04,559 --> 00:20:09,920
into it knowing Bear may not be one leg wise,

432
00:20:10,559 --> 00:20:13,960
so what is going to be your game plan? And

433
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,440
then partially which you talked about a little bit, if

434
00:20:17,559 --> 00:20:20,839
LJ decides to go to the NFL, then what's the

435
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:24,359
answer Because you don't have a five star running back

436
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:27,680
coming in. And I believe Devon Ekka has the talent

437
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:31,240
to be a high level player, But that's putting all

438
00:20:31,279 --> 00:20:33,759
of your eggs in one basket. If you're talking about

439
00:20:33,799 --> 00:20:36,880
guys who aren't here now, maybe you're thinking about a

440
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,480
guy who's in the portal. Maybe somebody else is going

441
00:20:39,519 --> 00:20:41,799
to be coming in from a school we are unaware of.

442
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:46,200
That's possible, But it just when I when I contrast

443
00:20:46,319 --> 00:20:48,920
what I saw Kevin Young do with Abdullah Ahman, and

444
00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:52,440
I understand the basketball is different, but the idea of

445
00:20:52,799 --> 00:20:55,680
I'm confident in this guy, so I'm putting him out there.

446
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 4: It's it feels like a little bit of the opposite with.

447
00:20:59,319 --> 00:21:05,599
Speaker 2: The running situation with BYU and honestly, Ron, we're kind

448
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:06,559
of running out of.

449
00:21:06,559 --> 00:21:08,759
Speaker 4: Excuses at this point.

450
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,279
Speaker 2: Because we kept saying it, we kept saying it, we

451
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:15,839
kept saying it. And the Texas Tech game, Bear Bachmeier

452
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:17,960
is hurt, he's clearly not one hundred percent, and you

453
00:21:18,079 --> 00:21:21,559
don't have a true deep run game to lean into.

454
00:21:22,279 --> 00:21:25,599
So when I see all of that add together, then

455
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:31,200
you mix in lj's surgery and not being able to play,

456
00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:36,039
then I wonder, Okay, what is your solution.

457
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:37,920
Speaker 4: Going to be this Saturday?

458
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,759
Speaker 2: Are you suddenly gonna find belief in these guys or

459
00:21:40,759 --> 00:21:43,400
are you going to be forced to say, hey, we

460
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,200
gotta throw you out there? Is Sione Moa maybe back

461
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:47,960
to one hundred percent and maybe he.

462
00:21:47,839 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 4: Can carry that load.

463
00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:54,039
Speaker 2: Maybe I don't know what the answer is, but I

464
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:57,720
truly hope that BYU has a tightened up game plan

465
00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:02,160
for this game against Georgia Tech on Saturday.

466
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, you have to wonder what will the game plan be?

467
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,079
What will it look like? Now you can throw the ball,

468
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,559
you know, you can, but you gotta can't just completely

469
00:22:10,559 --> 00:22:13,839
abandoned the run. Have to run it somewhat. So we're

470
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:17,680
gonna find out. We will find out if those that

471
00:22:17,759 --> 00:22:19,759
are just tuning in to the one on three nine

472
00:22:19,839 --> 00:22:22,599
or ninety a three FM dial just played the Kilani

473
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:26,079
SoundBite of l J. Martin is not gonna participate in

474
00:22:26,079 --> 00:22:29,079
this game. He's going to be out. Had surgery on

475
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:32,079
that shoulder, the one that got dinged up in that

476
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,640
tex what is the Iowa State game? I'm pretty sure

477
00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:37,480
at Texas Tech game, you know, and he's not gonna

478
00:22:37,599 --> 00:22:40,319
not gonna be playing. Had to have surgery in that window.

479
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:41,200
Had to make a decision.

480
00:22:41,319 --> 00:22:41,640
Speaker 4: He did.

481
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:43,279
Speaker 1: He's in high hopes from what I hear from my

482
00:22:43,319 --> 00:22:45,759
sources and the people that I talked to, LJ will

483
00:22:45,759 --> 00:22:47,799
be at the game per Kalani to cheer his brothers on.

484
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,440
Now a decision has to be made. But to Brett's point,

485
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,759
even with Devon Ekka, you don't want to LJ. Martin

486
00:22:53,839 --> 00:22:55,759
situation all over again. You don't want to put all

487
00:22:55,799 --> 00:22:57,640
the eggs and all your eggs in the basket and

488
00:22:58,319 --> 00:23:00,240
put so much pressure on a freshman who I think

489
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:03,359
it's capable of doing it. Who is coming in for

490
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,240
a reason. There's a reason you signed him. There's a

491
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:07,240
reason why will Snowden was declared of one. That he

492
00:23:07,279 --> 00:23:10,559
can make an impact. Lukhn feels the same way. Who's

493
00:23:10,599 --> 00:23:12,319
joined our program and this is a good running back.

494
00:23:12,559 --> 00:23:15,599
Could this be the next you know version or type

495
00:23:15,599 --> 00:23:19,319
of a Jamal You know Williams? Can he have that elusiveness,

496
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:23,839
that explosivity. We're gonna find out, you know, if he's

497
00:23:23,839 --> 00:23:26,359
gonna what he's gonna do. He will be at springball.

498
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:27,640
We had him on the show a couple of weeks

499
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:29,119
of excuse me a couple of weeks ago. Last week

500
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:32,720
I apologized, and he's gonna be there. He is graduating

501
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:35,880
him a legend. Are both gonna enroll at b YU

502
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,000
and the winter, be there for winter semesters and gonna

503
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,640
start to participate and lift with the team. And Devon

504
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:42,359
says he wants to get after it in the weight room.

505
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:44,440
Even if he does all of that and is RB

506
00:23:44,519 --> 00:23:47,440
two next season, Uh, excuse me, RB one next season

507
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,039
if LJ doesn't come back or RB two. You want

508
00:23:50,079 --> 00:23:52,880
a bigger two punch. Look look at the NFL looking

509
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,480
out college football. You need a one two punch in

510
00:23:56,039 --> 00:23:58,200
college football and at the league, you need a power

511
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,720
You need a power back like LG that just is

512
00:24:00,759 --> 00:24:03,440
able to bruise people up. And you need that guy

513
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,079
that has that explosiveness, your scat back that is very dynamic,

514
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:08,599
that can still hit the holes like Devan. You still

515
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,319
need to go get more in the portal. But we'll see.

516
00:24:11,519 --> 00:24:13,519
You have to wonder. You have to wonder if Devon

517
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:16,119
was able to play right now, wuld he play in

518
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,720
this game. I'm just throwing stuff out there to have

519
00:24:18,799 --> 00:24:21,000
talking points. But the point is, you know the depth

520
00:24:21,039 --> 00:24:23,160
at running back, what is it gonna look like? Who

521
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,160
will need to step up? Will stop? We'll ask that

522
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,759
question specifically in the next segment. We'll put it as

523
00:24:28,759 --> 00:24:31,200
our pollar today. I'll get breads thoughts are, I'll get

524
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,559
my thoughts on the matter as well. Need to discuss

525
00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:37,279
who's gonna be RB one now who in the depth

526
00:24:37,279 --> 00:24:39,960
We're gonna pull up the depth chart, get names, get faces,

527
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,440
discuss all of that in our polar day. Excuse me,

528
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:46,119
in our question today and our pollar day coming up next,

529
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,680
because it is a hot topic of discussion. Having to

530
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:52,000
move some things around. Killane saying LJ will not play.

531
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,079
Big deal, not a big deal. I guess we'll find

532
00:24:55,079 --> 00:24:58,000
out against Georgia Tech. I'm gonna say this is a concern.

533
00:24:58,079 --> 00:25:00,000
This is a big deal because you haven't seen anything

534
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:03,000
from the other running backs. You've seen moments, but you

535
00:25:03,079 --> 00:25:05,680
haven't truly seen the moment. This is the moment I

536
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:07,400
was afraid of. Now it is the Bowl game. Luckily,

537
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,359
is not the season I always feared what would happen

538
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,920
NFLJ didn't play in the game. Now, luckily he was

539
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:15,599
able to do what he did. And if that just

540
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:19,680
makes the Cincinnati game more impressive, Brett and everything into

541
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:21,519
scouts and it should be for the fact that he

542
00:25:21,599 --> 00:25:23,759
had offseason surgery and I know a bunch of guys

543
00:25:24,039 --> 00:25:26,160
do that where they play hurt, but for the plact

544
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,319
that he played with that and did what he did

545
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:31,200
to Cincinnati where he was sticking dudes with his helmet.

546
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:34,359
He broke like I think, what three mouthpieces. He was

547
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:37,599
just wrecking people. He deserves a lot of credit. LJ

548
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,440
should be highlighted. He should be given the award on

549
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,640
the BAU team and in the Big Twelve Conference for

550
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:45,359
the most toughest player of the year. In my opinion

551
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:47,359
because to go out there with that. I know he

552
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,119
had the Texas Tech Game where he maybe wasn't confident,

553
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:51,640
but after that he's like, oh, I can play with it.

554
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,440
Just said screw it man. He was lighting people up.

555
00:25:54,559 --> 00:25:56,799
So we're gonna find out. We will find out, but

556
00:25:56,839 --> 00:25:58,599
we will take a brief time out. We will go

557
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,039
to break, don't go any where. Coming up next, we'll

558
00:26:01,039 --> 00:26:03,480
discuss that question of who needs to step up in

559
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:06,960
the running back room with LJ. Martin not participating in

560
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:08,960
the Pop Tards Bowl. And if you think this is

561
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:10,960
in our Polar Day, big deal, not a big deal,

562
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,759
let us know what you think. On Critle Benjamin, we

563
00:26:13,799 --> 00:26:15,920

592
00:27:48,799 --> 00:27:52,119
not be home for b y U A little bittersweet,

593
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:56,079
but everybody else on the team would be back for Christmas,

594
00:27:56,079 --> 00:28:00,000
and Perkalani, others are still nurses some injuries, if all.

595
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,519
Speaker 4: So we had Zach on the show. Zach was producing

596
00:28:07,559 --> 00:28:08,759
the show yesterday.

597
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:13,880
Speaker 2: And he did a phenomenal jo to Zach, and Zach

598
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:16,160
had a take that at the time I didn't know

599
00:28:16,279 --> 00:28:18,720
I agreed with him. Then hearing this, I realized I

600
00:28:18,759 --> 00:28:19,480
do agree with.

601
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 4: Zach, I know, and I feel bad.

602
00:28:22,759 --> 00:28:24,400
Speaker 2: I feel like I've done a lot of things to

603
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:25,759
already not make the fans.

604
00:28:25,559 --> 00:28:27,839
Speaker 4: Happy in just thirty minutes being on the radio here early.

605
00:28:29,759 --> 00:28:32,400
I'm not a big old school Christmas music guy.

606
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:37,960
Speaker 2: I need I need Kelly Clarkson, I need Sia, I

607
00:28:38,039 --> 00:28:42,440
need I need Maclamore like I need the Jonas Brothers.

608
00:28:42,559 --> 00:28:45,960
I need popping hype me up, have a good time

609
00:28:46,039 --> 00:28:50,720
kind of Christmas, that type of Christmas music, Like, that's

610
00:28:50,759 --> 00:28:54,160
the stuff I imagine is playing only on Sunday when we're

611
00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:56,359
trying to be reverend in the house or when I'm

612
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:57,920
when I'm like trying to take a nap.

613
00:28:58,000 --> 00:28:59,480
Speaker 4: That feels like good nap music.

614
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:02,880
Speaker 2: And I realized it's his precle and it's with the

615
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:03,880
culture everything.

616
00:29:04,279 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 4: But yeah, like this like this is this is Christmas

617
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:12,039
to me, like having a good time shout out to

618
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:16,079
Riah Carey song legends. What must that be like to?

619
00:29:16,519 --> 00:29:19,319
Speaker 2: Like, I know Mariah Carey had other things outside of

620
00:29:19,359 --> 00:29:24,279
this song, but she's basically like famous for a month

621
00:29:24,319 --> 00:29:26,759
and a half out of the year, and I wonder I'm.

622
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:28,640
Speaker 4: Curious, like how that affects her revenue and all kinds

623
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:28,880
of things.

624
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,039
Speaker 2: But yeah, I'm not an old school Christmas music guy,

625
00:29:31,079 --> 00:29:32,920
but I but I assume that you are.

626
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I mean I listened to it like if

627
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,880
it's around the houses, like playing when I'm like cooking

628
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:44,039
and things like that. Because I associate music with this

629
00:29:44,079 --> 00:29:46,160
is gonna sound bad. I hope I'm not promoting anything

630
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,359
bad and I hope I don't get in trouble. But

631
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:53,759
I associate music of how I associate dancing, uh movements

632
00:29:53,759 --> 00:29:56,680
and yeah, exactly, you know, like why like what in

633
00:29:56,720 --> 00:30:00,960
his way? Well here's look, it's all about energy, that's why.

634
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:01,200
Speaker 4: You know.

635
00:30:01,359 --> 00:30:03,839
Speaker 1: It's all about you know, pro you know, multiply and replenishing.

636
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:04,960
I associated with that stuff.

637
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:08,119
Speaker 2: It's all about that there, right, It's not all about.

638
00:30:08,319 --> 00:30:09,920
Speaker 1: There are other parts that could be about but like

639
00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:12,759
the songs that like, I shouldn't act like all of

640
00:30:12,799 --> 00:30:14,960
my music that way because I have some stuff that

641
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:16,839
just pumps me up. I don't want people thinking that

642
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:18,640
when I go to the gym. But like I associate

643
00:30:19,039 --> 00:30:22,359
like music, like with the correlation of getting you know,

644
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:26,440
having a result something pumped up and having basically getting

645
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:28,920
hyped about something. So when I listen to big Christmas

646
00:30:29,039 --> 00:30:32,880
music like this or playing like games, you know, being competitive,

647
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:36,480
when I go to the gym working out at energy, yes, exactly,

648
00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:38,000
the music magic, and I'm cool with that.

649
00:30:38,119 --> 00:30:40,240
Speaker 2: I just I guess I just don't have that much.

650
00:30:40,359 --> 00:30:44,160
That energy is not Christmas for me. But I can understand.

651
00:30:44,279 --> 00:30:46,000
I understand what you're saying. And I see that.

652
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,680
Speaker 1: Because when I'm cutting you know, onions up in mind,

653
00:30:48,799 --> 00:30:53,799
I'm crying, you know, all beholdful career like that correlates

654
00:30:53,839 --> 00:30:56,279
I feel like to you know, depression. I guess it's

655
00:30:56,319 --> 00:31:00,599
my eyes are burning. No, no, but yeah, so shiate music

656
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:02,519
with energy and that a lot of people like oh

657
00:31:02,559 --> 00:31:04,880
Ronald the Three Male Weavers just a you know, a

658
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:06,720
horny bumb like. No, that's not what I'm saying. I

659
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:10,240
correlate that with that. That's just how it is. Anyway,

660
00:31:10,279 --> 00:31:13,240
I mac music with energy, and my energy is very high,

661
00:31:13,319 --> 00:31:14,559
you know, so you got to go to Game Day

662
00:31:14,599 --> 00:31:16,960
Men's Health and get your testosterone levels check out. Anyway,

663
00:31:17,119 --> 00:31:20,880
the point is, I agree with you some Christmas music

664
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,039
is too slow. That's a very slow song, like I'm

665
00:31:23,039 --> 00:31:24,799
okay if you come into the house, that's what it is.

666
00:31:24,799 --> 00:31:27,359
If you're reading a book, fitting the moment as well.

667
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:30,400
But if you're playing games of family. You know, there's

668
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:32,200
a game called NRKS that I got introduced to a

669
00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:34,680
few years ago with my wife's family, you should not

670
00:31:35,119 --> 00:31:37,319
be playing that song. I do agree with you guys

671
00:31:37,359 --> 00:31:39,440
on that. So the music does need to match the

672
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:42,039
moment as well. And if you're playing Cover your Assets,

673
00:31:42,079 --> 00:31:44,200
that's not a all to be home for Christmas? Is

674
00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:46,640
Mariah Carey, get pumped up and make sure that you're

675
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:51,880
holding the golden silk, because that is in the air.

676
00:31:52,599 --> 00:31:55,839
He said that out for blood only. Hey, I don't

677
00:31:55,839 --> 00:31:57,519
blame you that you should be out for blood. Look,

678
00:31:57,759 --> 00:32:00,599
Cover your assets breaks up marriages. The gold card has ripped.

679
00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:03,160
Everybody knows it is. My wife refuses to tape it

680
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:05,960
up or get a new deck. She says, no, people

681
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,359
must understand that you lied in that moment to win,

682
00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:11,839
because you're a liar. To win games, you cheat at

683
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:13,960
all costs. And I say, look, I'm just doing the

684
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,440
same stuff that all college football coaches are doing. I

685
00:32:16,599 --> 00:32:18,640
just didn't get caught. Don't be mad. You're mad that

686
00:32:18,839 --> 00:32:21,200
you just didn't catch me. I still got the dub. Anyway,

687
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:23,640
that was your band of today, guys. I'll be Home

695
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:45,960
The question who from the running back room needs to

696
00:32:46,079 --> 00:32:49,359
step up? With LJ. Martin not participating in the pop

697
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:52,039
tars Ball. You can say what you want. You can say, oh,

698
00:32:52,039 --> 00:32:54,079
why are you talking about it? He's not going to play,

699
00:32:54,279 --> 00:32:57,319
he ain't gonna dress, so therefore somebody else has to

700
00:32:57,319 --> 00:32:59,720
get the carries. Is it going to be on a more?

701
00:33:00,119 --> 00:33:00,680
Will we see this?

702
00:33:00,759 --> 00:33:00,839
Speaker 4: Ye?

703
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,119
Speaker 1: Anymore? That we saw in the Kansas State game last year.

704
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:05,319
He's been plagued by a number of injuries. You feel

705
00:33:05,359 --> 00:33:07,720
bad for him. Is it going to be Press and Rex?

706
00:33:07,759 --> 00:33:10,519
We've seen flashes, We've seen Joe Vessa de Mooney have

707
00:33:10,559 --> 00:33:12,400
a couple of nice moments. Is it going to be

708
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:14,240
someone else? Will it be Charles Miska? Will it be

709
00:33:14,319 --> 00:33:18,880
Logan Pain? Who do you see stepping up on Saturday?

710
00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:21,279
Because even with Bear being I would say one hundred

711
00:33:21,279 --> 00:33:23,759
percent healthy, you don't want Bear taking all of those hits.

712
00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:27,240
So somebody needs to be the RB one need to

713
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,319
be LJ like Esque Or is it going to be

714
00:33:29,359 --> 00:33:31,119
by committee? Brett? What are you feeling?

715
00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:34,920
Speaker 4: I don't know, Ron, I don't know.

716
00:33:35,759 --> 00:33:39,200
Speaker 2: Usually our job is to sit here and just talk,

717
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:41,599
even if we don't believe it, even if we don't

718
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:41,880
buy it.

719
00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:43,599
Speaker 4: Our job is to sit here and talk.

720
00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:46,559
Speaker 2: And the more I truly think about it, the more

721
00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,400
I come back to the answer of I don't know.

722
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:53,279
I know who it could be, I know who I

723
00:33:53,319 --> 00:33:56,319
think it should be, but who it will be is

724
00:33:56,359 --> 00:33:58,640
not a question that I feel like I have a

725
00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:02,319
real genuine answer to. Only because what we talked about

726
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:06,480
just minutes ago which is if BYU felt that confident

727
00:34:06,519 --> 00:34:10,400
in somebody, wouldn't we have seen that person getting meaningful

728
00:34:10,519 --> 00:34:15,559
reps in some of these big time games. Like I thought,

729
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:19,519
we heard in one of the media availabilities all Preston Rex,

730
00:34:19,559 --> 00:34:22,280
Preston Rex, and then the worst kept secret in town

731
00:34:22,519 --> 00:34:25,039
was Hey, prest and Rex, prest and Rex, and then

732
00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:29,719
he got like three carries. And we've heard plenty and

733
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:33,400
seen plenty of Joe Vessa Demuni's athleticism. He was the

734
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:36,960
guy who was hurtling people in the in the scrimmage

735
00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:40,840
earlier in the year, but we haven't really seen him

736
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,400
get carries. And they said it's not because he's fumbled

737
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:45,920
the football, but I haven't seen him get carried since then.

738
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:49,800
So I sit here and I think about it, like

739
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,519
there's a lot of guys who make sense. I guess

740
00:34:52,599 --> 00:34:56,960
what I'm most hopeful for. Honestly, truly, Ron, I hope

741
00:34:57,039 --> 00:35:00,039
Si Moa is a full go because even in that

742
00:35:00,159 --> 00:35:01,960
Texas Tech game when we thought he would be a

743
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,880
full go, he really wasn't because if he was, they

744
00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:06,559
would have given him the ball more. And I don't

745
00:35:06,559 --> 00:35:08,719
know what the reasoning was for that. Clearly we don't

746
00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:12,239
have all the answers. I guess, if I have to

747
00:35:12,519 --> 00:35:16,760
gut into my head pick somebody, my money goes down

748
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:20,280
on Sion Moa only because I feel like that's the

749
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:23,519
answer that should be the right one. But you are

750
00:35:23,559 --> 00:35:26,960
really sitting here and having to take a good hard

751
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:33,840
look at this running back room and weighing potential versus

752
00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:38,960
reality and actual production. Like if we I'm gonna pull

753
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:40,920
up the running back stats on the season right now,

754
00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:44,679
because we have a lot of guys that you kind

755
00:35:44,679 --> 00:35:49,039
of have to I don't know, not Eliminade, but we

756
00:35:49,079 --> 00:35:52,159
know you're like a big majority of your carries you're

757
00:35:52,199 --> 00:35:54,559
losing going into this game. I guess basically is what

758
00:35:54,599 --> 00:35:57,159
I'm saying. So your number one rusher obviously was el

759
00:35:57,199 --> 00:36:00,119
Jim Martin. Your number two rusher was bar Bachmeier n one.

760
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:03,440
Oh my gosh, I can't believe that this is true.

761
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:06,039
Do you know who's third on the team in total

762
00:36:06,119 --> 00:36:07,239
rush yards this season?

763
00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:07,519
Speaker 4: Run?

764
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:10,519
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take a guess in between Parker Kingston or

765
00:36:10,559 --> 00:36:11,719
Sam Vanderhar.

766
00:36:11,599 --> 00:36:15,280
Speaker 4: Okay, so it's Parker Kingston. Do you know who's fourth

767
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:16,679
in carries on this team?

768
00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:19,639
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Sam Vanderhar Cody Hagen.

769
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:23,800
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I forgot about Cody Hagen, fifth on this

770
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:24,880
team in rushing.

771
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:29,800
Speaker 1: Man, I'm gonna have to thank goodness gracious U trying

772
00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:32,639
to think Cody Parker. Who else has been using the

773
00:36:32,679 --> 00:36:35,440
jet sweep? No, they haven't used Jojo on the run game.

774
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:36,920
Speaker 4: I'll just help you out here.

775
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:43,559
Speaker 1: It's oh yeah, good played in the chexas Tech Bogus.

776
00:36:44,199 --> 00:36:47,480
Speaker 2: Had eighteen carries this season run. If you just go

777
00:36:47,559 --> 00:36:51,159
by carries l J. Martin one, Bear Bachmeyer two, Parker

778
00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:55,800
Kingston three. The fact that there's only one running back

779
00:36:56,280 --> 00:37:01,000
in your top three rushers and top three guys in

780
00:37:01,159 --> 00:37:03,079
carries is a.

781
00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:05,440
Speaker 4: Little bit concerning.

782
00:37:05,679 --> 00:37:07,960
Speaker 2: And again, this isn't the end of the world, because

783
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:11,639
this is your last game of the season, but unless

784
00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:14,880
you have and look, we know they're very good in

785
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:16,960
the portal, we know they're great at recruiting and all

786
00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:19,519
that good stuff, and we know the nil budget apparently

787
00:37:19,559 --> 00:37:23,039
has been bumped up. But I'm just saying, this is

788
00:37:23,079 --> 00:37:25,639
the conversation we were having four weeks into the season

789
00:37:25,679 --> 00:37:29,079
when Lucky Fenw was like fourth on the team and carries.

790
00:37:29,639 --> 00:37:32,559
You're sitting here saying the same thing. In the last

791
00:37:32,599 --> 00:37:36,480
game of the season to say, Ron, there is one

792
00:37:36,639 --> 00:37:39,519
running back in the top three of the Seamon carries

793
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:43,559
and rushing yards, and you're losing l J. Martin running

794
00:37:43,559 --> 00:37:47,239
the football for this game. And Bear Bachmeier probably isn't

795
00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:49,440
gonna be running the ball as much in this game.

796
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:51,679
So who do you lean on because you're not lining

797
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:56,800
up Parker in the gun? And look, I love Preston,

798
00:37:56,840 --> 00:38:00,880
I love Joe Mesa. Preston has thirteen carries. Joe Vessa

799
00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:03,199
has twelve carries. It almost felt like anytime those guys

800
00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:05,039
were in the game, you knew they were passing the ball.

801
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 4: They were just there for protection. And by the way,

802
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:09,119
Lucky for Now.

803
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:12,800
Speaker 2: Has eight carries, So he has four or five less

804
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:15,519
than Preston or Joe Vessa, not that far off. There's

805
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:19,440
not a lot of experience this season in terms of

806
00:38:19,559 --> 00:38:20,440
rushing the football.

807
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:24,400
Speaker 1: No, not a lot. And that's that's that's that's why

808
00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:27,639
we've talked about it all season long, Brett, and it's

809
00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:30,039
just going to be the game that plagues him by

810
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,599
not having running backs. I don't think so a Rod.

811
00:38:32,599 --> 00:38:35,639
I trust in him. He's too brilliant of offensive mind

812
00:38:35,679 --> 00:38:38,280
and a coordinator to do so. This offensive skin is

813
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:41,760
too dynamic to be handicapped. But it is going to

814
00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:44,599
probably have a few wrinkles, maybe a couple of trick

815
00:38:44,639 --> 00:38:46,960
plays that Georgia Tech isn't going to be ready for.

816
00:38:47,039 --> 00:38:49,719
Maybe you might see the Parker Kingston double pass, might

817
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:52,360
see the double or the Tornado reverse that they were

818
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:55,480
killing it at the beginning of the season. But that also,

819
00:38:55,679 --> 00:38:58,440
you know, has to be that has to happen because

820
00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:00,320
of how well you run the football and you don't

821
00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:02,599
have LJ. So we'll see what happens. But I trust

822
00:39:02,599 --> 00:39:04,239
an a Rod to throw some wrinkles in, but I

823
00:39:04,679 --> 00:39:07,320
need the players in offensive line to execute. The boys

824
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:08,840
up front are gonna have to get a strong push.

825
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:12,360
It would be nice, like you said, Brett to see

826
00:39:12,559 --> 00:39:14,840
and it comes down. I believe to him. There's two

827
00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:20,360
guys who I'm putting this on to run the football hard.

828
00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:22,719
I know he's not LG, but he can still maneuver,

829
00:39:23,079 --> 00:39:26,360
you know, really well. I need to have somewhere Brett,

830
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:30,159
you know in that ten to fifteen carries for fifty

831
00:39:30,199 --> 00:39:32,039
to seventy yards. If he can do that, if he

832
00:39:32,039 --> 00:39:35,599
can be you know productive, excuse me enough like that

833
00:39:35,639 --> 00:39:38,239
you run bear a few times, and you add in

834
00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:40,519
the second guy who I think is pressing Res. You

835
00:39:40,599 --> 00:39:42,360
add in those guys to do that and maybe get

836
00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:44,239
press Rex in the flat a couple of times. You

837
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:46,800
give him a couple of tosses and pitches that option

838
00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:49,480
that they do that option pitch. I think that could

839
00:39:49,519 --> 00:39:52,679
really spur b Why use offense? But yeah, those are

840
00:39:52,679 --> 00:39:54,719
the only two guys really like And it might even

841
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:57,280
be by committee. They might even throw Joe Vessa. They

842
00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:58,639
might throw a bunch of different guys.

843
00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:02,559
Speaker 4: I remember, I guess they Enich, we haven't really he.

844
00:40:02,519 --> 00:40:05,039
Speaker 1: Needs a hybrid. Yeah, Enich is a hybrid. They could

845
00:40:05,039 --> 00:40:07,039
they could. Look. I would love for them to throw

846
00:40:07,079 --> 00:40:09,320
Logan paint out there and let a guy who's willing

847
00:40:09,519 --> 00:40:11,840
to go be a bruiser who was literally liked what

848
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:15,039
the six a Russian leader and you know who was

849
00:40:15,159 --> 00:40:18,079
playing phenomenal in high school ball, A guy that's proven

850
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:19,840
that he did at the high school level. Let him

851
00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:22,400
give an opportunity to let him showcase it in this game.

852
00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:24,960
You never know what you have in there. People never

853
00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:26,519
thought they knew what they had with Tyler ours year

854
00:40:26,559 --> 00:40:28,880
to look what happened. Logan could be one of those guys,

855
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:30,960
but you never know unless you play the guy. Until

856
00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:33,480
you found out Sin Tyler had to go pay his

857
00:40:33,559 --> 00:40:35,559
bills and said, hey, look, I'm gonna have to quit football,

858
00:40:35,559 --> 00:40:37,360
and they said, no, no, no, we like you. Let's

859
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:39,079
find a place for you and lo and behold they did.

860
00:40:39,119 --> 00:40:41,119
So maybe Logan needs to say I have to go

861
00:40:41,199 --> 00:40:43,519
focus on real life for them to give an opportunity.

862
00:40:43,519 --> 00:40:45,880
Maybe he's not healthy. I don't know, but I think

863
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:47,480
that's a guy that I look at that I'm like,

864
00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:50,480
I've seen him, you know, when he was in springball

865
00:40:50,519 --> 00:40:52,320
and fall camp, had a few moments, a few hihights

866
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:54,840
where I'm like, that guy I think can play. Where's

867
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:58,039
he at? Look this, if you're a rod, everybody's getting touches.

868
00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:01,239
Let Harvey know. Let the running back. Look, we're gonna

869
00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:03,480
go with this game plan. But whoever has the hot hand,

870
00:41:03,519 --> 00:41:05,519
we're gonna feed him. So if Logan you get hot,

871
00:41:05,519 --> 00:41:07,639
you're in Charles mtskive. You get hot, you're gonna get

872
00:41:07,639 --> 00:41:10,000
the football. Enick now a hey way, if you're hot,

873
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:11,639
you're gonna get it. Joe Ves, if you're hot, we're

874
00:41:11,639 --> 00:41:13,920
gonna give it to you. There's a multitude of guys

875
00:41:14,119 --> 00:41:15,880
in this room that can get hot. The question is

876
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:18,599
which one will take over? And I agree with you.

877
00:41:18,639 --> 00:41:22,719
I'm backing up your point. You've been in the room,

878
00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:25,400
uh one of you've been in the room as one

879
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:29,119
of the most ten tenured guy on the team, a leader.

880
00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:32,440
I expect you to step up. Preston Rex making a position,

881
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:35,880
I mean blame Fowler and people are raving and about

882
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:39,000
Preston and fall camp Ierro brought him up multiple times.

883
00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:41,000
Let this be the game that he really breaks off

884
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:43,079
and you can see it. So we'll find out, Bratt,

885
00:41:43,079 --> 00:41:45,559
We'll find out way more obviously if who will play

886
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,159
on Saturday, who will be the first guy out there.

887
00:41:48,159 --> 00:41:50,159
But I'm with you. I think you see number thirty

888
00:41:50,559 --> 00:41:52,880
in Cougar blue go out there with the last named

889
00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:54,960
MOA on this jersey, and I think you're gonna see

890
00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:57,480
Preston Rex and a bunch of other guys contribute. But

891
00:41:57,599 --> 00:42:00,519
we'll find out. Because this is gonna be tough. This

892
00:42:00,559 --> 00:42:03,280
is gonna be one of their toughest challenge challenge is

893
00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:05,400
not having LJ. But I think this can go well

894
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:07,440
and turn into a positive if you can run the

895
00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:10,880
football with these guys without LJ. The guys that you

896
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:12,360
bring in, you know you will be at a run

897
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:14,639
the football. You're gonna lose Isaiah Jada, but you're bringing

898
00:42:14,639 --> 00:42:16,679
in bot Mulatala. You're bringing a bunch of other people.

899
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:19,400
Kalani is rarely declared if it says that bat can

900
00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:22,800
compete immediately right away. So you think about on one side,

901
00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:25,920
Andrew Gentry, You're you're gonna lose Whalen, but you'll get

902
00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:27,840
Bruce back. Joe Brown is in the mix of a

903
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:29,880
bunch of guys coming in, So you have to think

904
00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:32,599
the offensive line is gonna beefed up more. And if

905
00:42:32,599 --> 00:42:34,800
you're able to find a running back. It always it's

906
00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:37,639
always two, right, Brett. It's always two guys that are

907
00:42:37,679 --> 00:42:40,159
emerged from the group that you have and everybody else doesn't.

908
00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:43,000
So out of all these guys, which two guys will emerge?

909
00:42:43,039 --> 00:42:45,159
Will it be Sooni? And Preston will be Preston and

910
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:48,840
Jovesa will be Joe Vesa And we don't know, We

911
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:51,159
don't know, But to me, I think that's what it

912
00:42:51,199 --> 00:42:53,119
comes down to. I think two of these guys will

913
00:42:53,159 --> 00:42:55,719
be able to cement themselves in this running back room

914
00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:57,119
or what they want to add and I think the

915
00:42:57,159 --> 00:43:00,280
other ones might not. But we're gonna find out in

916
00:43:00,679 --> 00:43:01,400
four days.

917
00:43:01,199 --> 00:43:04,239
Speaker 4: Brent, Yeah, we will. And here's the only good news

918
00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:04,960
that I have for you.

919
00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:08,800
Speaker 2: Georgia Tech has one of the worst rushing defenses in

920
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:09,480
the ACC.

921
00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:11,360
Speaker 1: Yes, they doing up one hundred.

922
00:43:11,079 --> 00:43:14,639
Speaker 2: And seventy yards per game on the ground, and they're

923
00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:17,599
about average when it comes to defending the past two

924
00:43:17,679 --> 00:43:19,280
hundred and twenty seven yard through the air.

925
00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:21,199
Speaker 4: That was a ninth in the ACC this season.

926
00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:24,519
Speaker 2: So that gives you a little bit of hope that

927
00:43:24,559 --> 00:43:27,159
you're not having to come in and play like a

928
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:32,239
Georgia run defense or an Ohio State run defense. But

929
00:43:33,079 --> 00:43:37,480
that doesn't guarantee success, that doesn't guarantee carries, that doesn't

930
00:43:37,519 --> 00:43:41,000
guarantee confidence. And to your point, you need a little

931
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:43,079
bit of this because what a little bit of what

932
00:43:43,119 --> 00:43:45,920
you see in this game is hopefully going to be

933
00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:48,880
the future of what you see in your twelve games

934
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:54,159
next year. So you really need to find something, some hints,

935
00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:59,079
some whatever works against Georgia Tech in order to have

936
00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:01,320
some idea, idea of what.

937
00:44:01,119 --> 00:44:04,360
Speaker 4: You're gonna have nine months from now.

938
00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:08,119
Speaker 2: So the good news is, again you have a Georgia

939
00:44:08,119 --> 00:44:11,360
Tech team who's not a jugger, not on the run game.

940
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,039
Speaker 4: But it's a bowl game.

941
00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:16,800
Speaker 2: Man, anything can happen, and you need to find the

942
00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:17,920
future of your run game.

943
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:19,800
Speaker 1: How to find the future of the run game? Are

944
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:22,639
there two guys from this group that could emerge? They

945
00:44:22,679 --> 00:44:25,840
could emerge? And if so, who are they? What say?

946
00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:28,400
Ukugar Nation will have Rett put that out there. LJ

947
00:44:28,519 --> 00:44:31,639
Martin not gonna participate in the Bowl game out do

948
00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:35,280
with the shoulder surgery. Kaline confirmed that he will be

949
00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:38,199
at the game cheering them on. Got that shoulder surgery

950
00:44:38,199 --> 00:44:40,480
in that small window. I assume that is for his

951
00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:43,159
future for if he decides to go to the NFL.

952
00:44:43,199 --> 00:44:45,920
Also if he decides to come back next season, that

953
00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:49,159
had to have happened. This is the perfect time. Look

954
00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:51,400
and I hate to bring up this in the wife.

955
00:44:51,519 --> 00:44:53,280
LJ still decides where he's like, oh, I'm gonna go

956
00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:55,960
to the NFL. Eddie Hacker got derailed with this bro

957
00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:58,880
This is so unfortunate. Remember Eddie got an injury where

958
00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:00,400
he broke his foot and it was a little bit

959
00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:02,440
later and it was during I think his training process

960
00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:06,719
that sucked. And this was a moment where you know,

961
00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:09,800
this is a blessing I think in disguise, because whatever

962
00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:12,320
LJ picks Brett, this is a blessing in disguise because

963
00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:14,199
he got it right away. He knew that the bowl

964
00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:17,159
game wasn't as important. And I don't want people to

965
00:45:17,159 --> 00:45:18,679
start theating that. Well, if you're saying ball games are

966
00:45:18,679 --> 00:45:20,920
not important, round you said it. But for this guy,

967
00:45:21,679 --> 00:45:23,760
he's looking at his future of if I come back,

968
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:26,360
that's more important than the Pop Tarts Bowl. He's looking

969
00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:29,039
like that doesn't matter, you know, and he's still going

970
00:45:29,119 --> 00:45:31,400
to be there and he's done enough. But this was

971
00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:35,079
important for him for the future, whether the NFL is

972
00:45:35,119 --> 00:45:37,840
this next season or the season after, or if it's

973
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:39,679
to come back for a senior season. He needed to

974
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:41,599
do this. So he gets it done. Now, it's a

975
00:45:41,599 --> 00:45:44,280
full off season to recover. Hecking. He might be even

976
00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:46,440
good bye, not good by spin ball, but he might

977
00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:48,480
be working a little bit. He'll definitely be good by

978
00:45:48,519 --> 00:45:50,920
fall camp. This is a smart decision by LJS. So

979
00:45:51,119 --> 00:45:52,880
I don't want anybody out there thinking, oh, why did

980
00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:54,920
he do this? I think he needed to do this

981
00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:56,400
Brett for the future of himself.

982
00:45:56,800 --> 00:45:59,840
Speaker 4: Yeah he did. I don't think I might.

983
00:46:00,079 --> 00:46:03,400
Speaker 2: Yes, is there's no fans we're gonna hold this against

984
00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:06,920
him that he's not gonna play, especially because we don't

985
00:46:07,039 --> 00:46:10,519
know if he's staying or going, so especially if he

986
00:46:10,599 --> 00:46:13,719
does this and he stays, then certainly no fans will

987
00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:16,039
hold it against him because he's trying to get better

988
00:46:16,039 --> 00:46:16,679
for next season.

989
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:17,840
Speaker 4: But even if he does.

990
00:46:17,639 --> 00:46:20,400
Speaker 2: Go, no one should hold him against hold this against

991
00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:23,679
him anyway because he's trying to do what's best for

992
00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:28,960
him and frankly, he's done what's best for the fans

993
00:46:29,039 --> 00:46:32,400
all season long. But running the ball in a way

994
00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:34,719
that makes you Big Twelve Offensive Player of the Year,

995
00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:39,159
LJ deserves all the support in the world.

996
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:41,440
Speaker 4: And yeah, like it.

997
00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:43,920
Speaker 2: Is, it is a bowl game. Bowl games do matter,

998
00:46:44,199 --> 00:46:47,760
but this isn't the Big twelve championship. So shout out

999
00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:49,760
to LJ for getting the work done that he needs

1000
00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:51,960
to and doing what's best for him in his future.

1001
00:46:52,280 --> 00:46:54,800
Speaker 1: Shout out to the Thompsons a listening. I just received

1002
00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:57,639
the message at this tech message. Come on, Ron, we

1003
00:46:57,679 --> 00:47:00,280
all know you're a horny bum. We love you, good

1004
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:02,880
work on the radio, etc. Loved the Thompsons.

1005
00:47:02,920 --> 00:47:03,679
Speaker 4: That's wild.

1006
00:47:04,519 --> 00:47:08,440
Speaker 1: Look the Thompson's known me from my days of look

1007
00:47:08,519 --> 00:47:12,960
back in the Chicago days where maybe you know this

1008
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:15,039
is where the where I go by Ron. Now that

1009
00:47:15,119 --> 00:47:17,960
was Ronald, maybe the alter ego to say premission. I

1010
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:20,159
start go by Ron now before it's funny. Whenever you

1011
00:47:20,199 --> 00:47:22,559
meet someone from Chicago, talk to my family, they will

1012
00:47:22,559 --> 00:47:24,480
all they call me mister Weaver. They call me Ronald.

1013
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:26,400
No one will ever call me Ron. I started going

1014
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:27,960
by Ron once I got here because I said, hey,

1015
00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:30,360
I need to switch things up after a long after

1016
00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:34,480
long two years of repenting. You know, but I was

1017
00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:36,840
a new man in Christ right, you know everything you

1018
00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:38,440
know I got sitt on the covenant. You know, I

1019
00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:41,000
participate in my callings. Now I'm not chasing you know

1020
00:47:41,159 --> 00:47:43,000
back of the time. Don't want this to be prefaced

1021
00:47:43,039 --> 00:47:45,840
the wrong way. I was fourteen to eighteen chasing the

1022
00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:47,840
young woman at that moment. Don't want people think I'm

1023
00:47:47,880 --> 00:47:50,079
doing that now. Got to preface it because somebody will pull,

1024
00:47:50,119 --> 00:47:52,519
you know how people cutting editing and tape things. But

1025
00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:57,000
I I dated everybody in my in my stake, and

1026
00:47:57,039 --> 00:48:00,199
I even dated others and other stakes. I I I

1027
00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:02,880
was not one that had no confidence. I was maybe

1028
00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:05,280
too confident and had to be humbled a few times,

1029
00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:07,719
probably a little bit of arrogance and ego, but the

1030
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:10,400
Mitchell humbled me and said, you are not anything and

1031
00:48:10,880 --> 00:48:13,480
you can't do anything without me the Lord. So shout

1032
00:48:13,480 --> 00:48:15,719
out to the Thompsons and listening and appreciate them showing

1033
00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:18,199
love for the show. But that is true, that is true.

1034
00:48:18,199 --> 00:48:21,760
But it's all about the music, the music in my bones.

1035
00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:24,280
Alvin and the Chimunks should have maybe played that I'll

1036
00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:26,960
be Home for Christmas. Should have played that one anyway, guys,

1037
00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:29,239
But that's our question today. What do you think? Where

1038
00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:31,280
are you following with it? Who do you think is

1039
00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:36,039
gonna be? Preston Jovessa, Charles miska Enich now he weigh

1040
00:48:36,079 --> 00:48:38,719
logan pain or is there another one that I miss?

1041
00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:40,960
Chiming on ex That cridle Benjamin, let us know what

1042
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:42,599
you think. We gotta go to break. We gotta get

1043
00:48:42,719 --> 00:48:44,480
to Jay Drew on a flip. Don't go anywhere on

1044
00:48:44,519 --> 00:48:47,119
you touch that F and dial if you touch it,

1045
00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:48,800
a judo chopping on the throat. I want to judo

1046
00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:50,480
chopping in the throat if you're on the AM dial.

1047
00:48:50,639 --> 00:48:52,199
I know I wouldn't say it, but I saw someone

1048
00:48:52,239 --> 00:48:54,760
the other day on it, and I said, stop doing that.

1049
00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:58,199
Stop doing that, because you're gonna make me. You know,

1050
00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:01,920
you're gonna turna get. You're gonna get Ronald Backer. Ronald

1051
00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:04,840
was a very Uh. He might've had some anger management issues.

1052
00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:06,280
That's all I'm gonna say. He might have had that.

1053
00:49:06,360 --> 00:49:09,280
