Speaker 1: It's time for Coffee and Company, fueled by Thornton's on
Speaker 1: Sports Talk seven ninety. Holy crap, I don't know who
Speaker 1: the hell we think we are. Get off our show, idiot.
Speaker 1: The kids are crying or trail off. The countries are
Speaker 1: screwing it up. Gold Play Inner Murals, Brother, gold Play
Speaker 1: Inn Murals.
Speaker 2: They're supposed to be mature adults, but they're really not.
Speaker 1: Who's the kid here?
Speaker 2: Who's the kid here?
Speaker 1: Are you kidding me?
Speaker 2: Now?
Speaker 1: Here's Nick Coffee.
Speaker 2: All right, ladies and gentlemen, welcome in. Let's do this.
Speaker 2: Let's get it started at his Coffee and Company, and
Speaker 2: we are fueled by Thornton's here on Sports Talk seven ninety,
Speaker 2: taking you up until six o'clock. That's what we do.
Speaker 2: I say wee because it's not just me. I'm not alone.
Speaker 2: My name is Nick Coffee. I hope you knew that.
Speaker 2: Now you do If you did not, the company man,
Speaker 2: mister John Alden is alongside today and again we're with
Speaker 2: you for the next three hours. So just know that
Speaker 2: whatever it is you got going on, you can take
Speaker 2: us with you. Listen live on the iHeart Radio app
Speaker 2: Listen live at seven ninety Louisville dot com. There'll be
Speaker 2: plenty of ways for you guys to be a part
Speaker 2: of the show today as well. You can give us
Speaker 2: a call once we open up the phone lines. We
Speaker 2: usually do that once the first segment comes to an end,
Speaker 2: So around twenty minutes from now, if you're itching to
Speaker 2: hit actually, let me ask you this question, John, I
Speaker 2: got a question for you to start the show. Tell Okay,
Speaker 2: when people dial numbers, do they still need to enter
Speaker 2: the area code like you do? Right?
Speaker 1: I think if you're outside the region, you have to.
Speaker 1: I feel like that's how it's always worked.
Speaker 2: I can't tell you the last time that I placed
Speaker 2: a phone call that I did not put area code first,
Speaker 2: But I don't know if I need to. Right. So,
Speaker 2: I'm in Louisville. I'm in the five to oh two
Speaker 2: area code district region whatever I mean, it's the area code.
Speaker 2: But like you know, you go certain certain amount of
Speaker 2: ways up north, you hit eight one two, you go
Speaker 2: certain amount of ways down south, you end up and
Speaker 2: I guess that would be two seven oh East of
Speaker 2: US would be eight five nine far east of US
Speaker 2: would be six oh six.
Speaker 1: Look at you knowing your area code?
Speaker 2: Trivia and I guess I'm gonna guess far west of
Speaker 2: US would still hit with two seven oh. Now, what
Speaker 2: I don't know is when you get up to northern
Speaker 2: Kentucky and you're close to Cincinnati. I know there's a
Speaker 2: lot of eight five nine's in Cincinnati. What I don't
Speaker 2: know is if you have like you know, if you're
Speaker 2: you know, is Cincinnati five one three? Is that? Is that?
Speaker 2: Is that right? That I guess that you think it is? Got? Yeah,
Speaker 2: I mean, look at me so as someone who's had
Speaker 2: who I guess it makes sense, right, I'm telling you
Speaker 2: that the last time. I mean, if I if I
Speaker 2: see a number I need to call, and I guess
Speaker 2: more often than not, put it this way. Like, let's
Speaker 2: say you are a caller and you wanted to call
Speaker 2: into the show, and you know that you were in
Speaker 2: the same area code that we are. If you just
Speaker 2: put in five oh two, five seven or yea, I'm sorry,
Speaker 2: if you don't put in five oh two and you
Speaker 2: just put in five seven one seventy nine hundred, will
Speaker 2: that work? It should? Right?
Speaker 1: I think it would because here here's the way I
Speaker 1: think about it. Whenever I was a youngin and my
Speaker 1: family had a landline. Still, if you dialed the I
Speaker 1: guess the second set of digits and then the third
Speaker 1: set of digits without putting in the area code, it
Speaker 1: would automatically call somebody else with that number in the
Speaker 1: same area code. So it might be ye, that makes sense.
Speaker 2: Cell phones, I never, you know, like if I was
Speaker 2: calling uh. I mean, I remember calling my wife's home
Speaker 2: line when we were dating in middle school, which I
Speaker 2: still feel weird saying we dated in middle school. We were,
Speaker 2: you know, thirteen out of think we weren't dating. We
Speaker 2: were you know, we call ourselves boyfriend and girlfriend, and
Speaker 2: most of our communication was done on AOL instead Messenger.
Speaker 2: But if I called her house, which by the way,
Speaker 2: I remember this I just now thought of it, hadn't
Speaker 2: thought of it in twenty years. Probably the Pizza Hut
Speaker 2: in our area where we grew up one letter different
Speaker 2: than her phone number, so she had a lot of calls,
Speaker 2: a lot of calls that were to Pizza Hut and
Speaker 2: at least intending to call Pizza Hut, but they ended
Speaker 2: up getting her home residents. Also another random thing about
Speaker 2: her home phone number her My wife's maiden name is Hall,
Speaker 2: a fairly common maiden name, I would say, Hall's a
Speaker 2: pretty fair I mean, I feel like that's a very
Speaker 2: common last name, to be honest with you. So her
Speaker 2: last name was Hall before she became a coffee and
Speaker 2: I won't mention her her dad's name because he may
Speaker 2: not want me saying that. But her dad had the
Speaker 2: same name as the high school football coach where we
Speaker 2: went to school. So back in the day, you know,
Speaker 2: cell phones weren't cell phones weren't that big of a thing,
Speaker 2: so you'd used to mean, I feel old saying this.
Speaker 2: But back in the day, like if you wanted to
Speaker 2: find out a friend's phone number to call, like during
Speaker 2: summer break, you would have to know his parent's number,
Speaker 2: her parent's number, and look him up in the old
Speaker 2: Bullet County phone book. And then you know, if you
Speaker 2: saw an address that you knew was legit, you'd know
Speaker 2: that was the home phone number. So anyways, she had
Speaker 2: a lot of calls to her house that were for
Speaker 2: pizza Hut that you know they called they missed one number.
Speaker 2: And then there were also calls made to her home
Speaker 2: people trying to get hold of the local high school
Speaker 2: football coach who happened to have the same last name
Speaker 2: as her dad. So maybe that explains why a couple
Speaker 2: of times when I would call my my my girlfriend
Speaker 2: at the time, whenever we were, you know, twelve and thirteen,
Speaker 2: I would all her dad never answer the phone like
Speaker 2: he was in a good mood. And it may have
Speaker 2: been because he probably just assumed it was somebody calling
Speaker 2: one to order pizza or one to talk to the
Speaker 2: local high school football coach. But you know, did you
Speaker 2: ever go through that like when you were you know,
Speaker 2: when you had a girlfriend or a girl that you
Speaker 2: were you know, you were into when you were a
Speaker 2: kid and you talked on the phone, and like you
Speaker 2: always if you called, there'd always be a little bit
Speaker 2: of a fear of the parents answering and not them
Speaker 2: is Tiffany Holme.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's in middle school specifically, there was. So there
Speaker 1: was a point where using email was before texting. I
Speaker 1: guess if you read before smartphones and that type of thing,
Speaker 1: you would exchange emails and then schedule a phone phone
Speaker 1: call over email, And I did that a couple of
Speaker 1: times in middle school.
Speaker 2: So we never did the email growing up, like we
Speaker 2: had we had AOL and SE messenger, and that was
Speaker 2: how a lot of our communication took place. And I'm
Speaker 2: sure everyone thinks their era that they grew up in
Speaker 2: was the best, But I'm here to tell you the
Speaker 2: era that I grew up in was in fact the best,
Speaker 2: better than yours, because I had a little bit of both.
Speaker 2: When I was really young. As a young kid, I
Speaker 2: couldn't go fire up a tablet, I couldn't get on
Speaker 2: the internet. I had to go outside and play. And
Speaker 2: if I wanted to go, you know, hang out with
Speaker 2: a friend, I had to go walk to his house
Speaker 2: and knock on his door and see if he was home.
Speaker 2: And if I made the trip, you know, five streets
Speaker 2: over and he wasn't home. You know, that's just that
Speaker 2: you chalk it up to the game. That's part of it.
Speaker 2: He wasn't home, you got to go home. Now you'd
Speaker 2: have no way of knowing, right, you can't text, you're
Speaker 2: not emailing. But by the time I got to be
Speaker 2: like late, like seventh eighth grade, you know, the Internet
Speaker 2: was you know, AOL was a thing. So we would
Speaker 2: communicate on AOL and stea messenger. And by the time
Speaker 2: I got to high school, you know a lot of
Speaker 2: the communication as far as socializing, was done in person
Speaker 2: because not everybody had the Internet, especially in bull Account
Speaker 2: when the Internet was very young, so you'd have to
Speaker 2: call a home phone. But by the time I was
Speaker 2: a sophomore, which I think was around like two thousand
Speaker 2: and three, two thousand and four, the Internet had become
Speaker 2: a course much bigger. Cell phones became pretty common, not
Speaker 2: just for you know everybody, but like kids myself. I
Speaker 2: got my first cell phone was when I was a
Speaker 2: sophomore in high school, and I remember, you know, texting
Speaker 2: became a thing, and that really like made it to
Speaker 2: where that's how we all communicated was text messages. So
Speaker 2: you know, when I was really young, I couldn't rely
Speaker 2: on the Internet, and the tablet and the video games
Speaker 2: we had were nothing like what you have now. But
Speaker 2: I also got to experience the benefit of technology whenever
Speaker 2: I was, you know, in high school, Like if I
Speaker 2: ever wanted to go out with a girl or you know,
Speaker 2: flirt with a girl, I didn't have to walk up
Speaker 2: to her during during you know, in between second and
Speaker 2: third period and think of some like you know, clever
Speaker 2: pickup line or some corny joke. I would just get
Speaker 2: her insta her or not Instagram. That wouldn't around then
Speaker 2: but I'd get her AOL instant messenger, or I would
Speaker 2: find somebody who knew her, and like, you know, you
Speaker 2: could kind of plant the seed that way, and you
Speaker 2: could kind of communicate to where it's not it's not
Speaker 2: as intimidating. It was intimidating calling the home phone when
Speaker 2: like the dad or mom's picking up and they know
Speaker 2: that it's a boy who's you know, interested in their daughter.
Speaker 2: A lot of parents were super cool about it, but
Speaker 2: like there were some that I was like, oh, if
Speaker 2: he answers, I'm hanging up. Hope they don't. And then
Speaker 2: if you if you block the number, then they wouldn't
Speaker 2: answer anyway. Or if you block the number and they
Speaker 2: did answer, you know, they would say, why are you
Speaker 2: blocking your number? You know, so different times. I feel
Speaker 2: like you are also in the same way to where
Speaker 2: the internet was always a thing when you were growing up, right.
Speaker 1: Yes, even like when I was a child when dial
Speaker 1: up is was really a thing the beginning of it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but like by the time you graduated high school
Speaker 2: a year was that twelve thirty sixteen?
Speaker 1: Oh my god, graduated in sixteen? Started in twelve.
Speaker 2: I thought you graduated college in sixteen.
Speaker 1: Graduated college and fall of nineteen.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we can stop talking about that stuff now because
Speaker 2: that's yeah, I'd rather not real quick.
Speaker 1: Two people called in let us know that they it
Speaker 1: is possible to call this phone number without using the area.
Speaker 2: Code, but there's got to be some kind of a line.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm Surom, California. I should have asked the guy
Speaker 1: where he was calling from. His name was Roscoe.
Speaker 2: Roscoe called back, and just drive around and tell us
Speaker 2: when you hit a point where you got to enter
Speaker 2: the area code. It's for it's for research purposes of
Speaker 2: the show. It's for a greater good of coffee and company.
Speaker 2: And we really we we will we will will pay you,
Speaker 2: uh with with more shows and and that's how you'll
Speaker 2: be paid for your services. We really appreciate it. Roscoe.
Speaker 2: Roscoe is a hell of a name, by the way.
Speaker 1: It is a great name.
Speaker 2: There's a kid who is I think he's a year
Speaker 2: older than Moose and uh but now Moose just got
Speaker 2: when he turned four, he joined the four and five
Speaker 2: year old room at daycare. So now he's now he's
Speaker 2: up with some bigger kids. And there's a five year
Speaker 2: old named Roscoe. He's got long shaggy hair, he's he's
Speaker 2: he's the coolest kid. Moose loves him. And I'm like,
Speaker 2: you know what, I get it. This is Roscoe kid.
Speaker 2: He's a wild card. He's wild, he's got cool hair,
Speaker 2: and his name's Roscoe. If I told you, hey, let
Speaker 2: me introduce you to Roscoe. You're not thinking I'm about
Speaker 2: to tell you about a five year old, right, You're
Speaker 2: thinking of probably a you know, grown up an adult.
Speaker 2: But Rosco's still alive. I don't There can't be many
Speaker 2: people five years or younger named Roscoe, right, I.
Speaker 1: Would say that's probably a true fact.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So shout out to all the Roscoe's out there,
Speaker 2: and shout out to the Roscoe who uh who called
Speaker 2: in to let us know we appreciate you. All right. Anyways,
Speaker 2: that was a long winded, you know, distraction there from me,
Speaker 2: But sometimes that happens, you know, It's part of it.
Speaker 2: And we got a lot we're gonna get into today.
Speaker 2: I think we are nowhere. I am nowhere different now
Speaker 2: than I was yesterday in regards to the Amari Huggins
Speaker 2: Bruce rumors that are out there, but they're still out there.
Speaker 2: Like nobody said, Nope, not happening. But nobody's also said,
Speaker 2: here's the report, here's here's here's what's going on. And
Speaker 2: I'll admit, just because of how like wild college athletics
Speaker 2: is now compared to what it was years ago. The
Speaker 2: thought of a guy, you know, going to a new school,
Speaker 2: transferring and then coming back right before school starts out
Speaker 2: of nowhere because a guy got injured, like you know,
Speaker 2: years ago, that was unheard of, but now you know
Speaker 2: it is odd. But yet you think, okay, well here
Speaker 2: we are. It's a new world. College athletics is so
Speaker 2: much different, so I guess this really isn't that crazy.
Speaker 2: But just because of the climate and it being really
Speaker 2: just a complete you know, as they say, the wild
Speaker 2: wild West, I never even thought about it. John, the
Speaker 2: transfer portal's closed, he can't transfer, and I never once
Speaker 2: thought about that. And here there's a ton of people
Speaker 2: speculating on it. There appears to be you know, some
Speaker 2: some where the rumors are coming from. It's originating from
Speaker 2: a person that has had good information before. So you know,
Speaker 2: nobody said it's happened, and here we go, and nobody
Speaker 2: has said nope, that's all nonsense. It's just internet rumor.
Speaker 2: But at least, you know, because somebody did raise the
Speaker 2: question like, wait a second, you can't transfer the portal
Speaker 2: is closed. Well, I'm now to the point where I
Speaker 2: don't I shouldn't say I don't believe it. But the
Speaker 2: scenario as to how he would get here and be
Speaker 2: able to to enroll in school and join the football program,
Speaker 2: meaning Amari Huggins Bruce who did leave Louisville and it's
Speaker 2: still currently at South Carolina, someone has at least given
Speaker 2: me what's been said as far as how it could
Speaker 2: be possible. But the amount of thing like the just
Speaker 2: the loops or I guess the hoops as they say
Speaker 2: you'd have to jump through to make this happen make
Speaker 2: me think that, like, yeah, that's just that's not realistic.
Speaker 2: But then again, we're in a world right now with
Speaker 2: college athletics where like nothing is gonna surprise us, So
Speaker 2: we can dive back into that coming up here after
Speaker 2: our first commercial break. But also we now have the
Speaker 2: battle for Atlantis matchups. We're getting cards versus Hoosiers. I mean,
Speaker 2: we're not going to break down the game today, but
Speaker 2: I mean that's not exactly what I mean. I don't
Speaker 2: really know what I wanted, But I did want Louisville
Speaker 2: to get a good opponent in their first game, just
Speaker 2: to kind of see where they stand in Indiana on
Speaker 2: paper heading into this season. Should be a good opponent,
Speaker 2: maybe a very good opponent. It'll be a test, no
Speaker 2: doubt so. And I've always been someone that loves to
Speaker 2: see a challenging non conference schedule because I want to
Speaker 2: watch my team play games where I know when the
Speaker 2: clock hit zero and we fire up these microphones to
Speaker 2: do a postgame show. I learned something it doesn't have
Speaker 2: to be, you know, like one game doesn't tell the
Speaker 2: whole story of a team and how good they can be. Guy.
Speaker 2: Teams have games where they play above their mind. They
Speaker 2: have games where they play, you know, below what you
Speaker 2: know they are. But I I you know, there's gonna
Speaker 2: be something to take from these games in the Bahamas
Speaker 2: more so than when you play you know, butt crack State.
Speaker 2: So you know, give me more of these kind of games,
Speaker 2: less of the butt crack States. And I love it
Speaker 2: because again I'm I'm you know, when I can get
Speaker 2: if we can get through November and December and every
Speaker 2: now and you know, pretty frequently, you're you're getting a
Speaker 2: chance to see where you stand. I mean, that's that's
Speaker 2: the that's what you want. But then again, Louisville has
Speaker 2: a brand new team and a brand new coach to
Speaker 2: where I'm thinking, Okay, they got Tennessee in their second game,
Speaker 2: and then before too long they take off of the
Speaker 2: Battle for Atlantis, which again they're gonna play some good
Speaker 2: teams because they're either gonna play in their second game
Speaker 2: depending on what happens between Indiana and Louisville, and again,
Speaker 2: depending on what happens between Gonzaga and West Virginia, it's
Speaker 2: gonna be one of those two teams. So you're gonna
Speaker 2: play Indiana in West Virginia or Indiana and Gonzaga, and
Speaker 2: you know in two of your first what six seven
Speaker 2: games of the season, And that's I mean that if
Speaker 2: you get Indiana and Gonzaga, that would probably mean you
Speaker 2: beat Indiana. And I would imagine that Gonzaga is gonna
Speaker 2: beat West Virginia because they're preseason top five team. And
Speaker 2: again we're getting ahead of ourselves here as far as
Speaker 2: you know, if they win. But still, like you're talking
Speaker 2: about playing some of the best teams in the country
Speaker 2: in the first you know, two three weeks of the season, which, again,
Speaker 2: as a fan, I like it just to kind of
Speaker 2: see where you are. But then again, if you're Pat Kelsey,
Speaker 2: you're probably thinking, Okay, look, I might need a little bit.
Speaker 2: You might you might want to throw me some more
Speaker 2: butt crack States here to kind of ease in. I
Speaker 2: don't know why I'm going with butt Crag State.
Speaker 1: You may have created a Butthole Tech's rival with buck b.
Speaker 2: Old Tech in but correct, stay, Look you throw the
Speaker 2: records out the window when those two teams play each other, John,
Speaker 2: you have to, because it's it's a rivalry. A smelly
Speaker 2: during Yeah, a lot of houses divided with with those
Speaker 2: with the luma from from both sides. There. Yeah, there
Speaker 2: you go. Well said. So we'll talk a little more
Speaker 2: about that because we're getting closer to college football and
Speaker 2: that's on the horizon. I mean, in fact, we've said
Speaker 2: it's here. I mean, it's not here yet for the
Speaker 2: local teams just yet. But hey, we got football games,
Speaker 2: and I mean after today, we got two shows and
Speaker 2: then the next time we're on the airwaves, we're gonna
Speaker 2: be reacting to real college football games that took place.
Speaker 2: And that has me excited. But basketball season, you know,
Speaker 2: we all know it doesn't start that long after football.
Speaker 2: And it's a new era around here. Man. We got
Speaker 2: a brand new coach at Louisville, a brand new coach.
Speaker 2: I mean, everything's brand new for Louisville and Kentucky. And
Speaker 2: I mean everything new players, new coaching staff, new, I
Speaker 2: mean new culture, everything. And that's that's exciting. Although I'm
Speaker 2: a little jealous because there's these charity scrimmages, which we're
Speaker 2: gonna get into a little bit later on. I don't
Speaker 2: know how how Louisville and Kentucky don't get involved in this,
Speaker 2: because you know, both fan bases around here are feening
Speaker 2: for chances to watch their team play. Louisville was spoiled
Speaker 2: with that trip to the Bahamas, right, But you've got
Speaker 2: Duke in Arizona State playing each other, Memphis and Alabama,
Speaker 2: Creighton and Purdue just to name a few of the matchups.
Speaker 2: These are these charity scrimmages that don't count. You get
Speaker 2: you get to play not a real game against a
Speaker 2: real opponent, to really see where you stand, and they'll
Speaker 2: stream it and people who buy it. All the money
Speaker 2: that's raised goes to a charity so you know, I
Speaker 2: don't really see any downside to playing in these games. So,
Speaker 2: you know, Pat Kelsey, if you're listening, and I'm sure
Speaker 2: you're not, Mark Pope, I'm quite sure you're not listening, Like,
Speaker 2: why don't you give one of these games for charity
Speaker 2: and you know, give the fans what they want, a
Speaker 2: chance to you know, as many chances as possible to
Speaker 2: see these brand new teams. Also, sticking with college basketball,
Speaker 2: I talked about it this late last week and it
Speaker 2: hasn't haven't brought it up since. But the Candid Coaches
Speaker 2: series that CBS Sports does, I mean, I don't think
Speaker 2: you'll find a better group of guys who cover college basketball.
Speaker 2: And that's not to say that they're on it. Like,
Speaker 2: for example, I think the Field of sixty eight's got
Speaker 2: a great group of guys that are connected and put
Speaker 2: out really good college basketball content. I value their opinions
Speaker 2: on college hoops. But CBS Sports with Matt Norlander, Gary
Speaker 2: Parrish a blanking on another one. Who else is it?
Speaker 2: I feel like there's one more within the CBS basketball
Speaker 2: that I'm blanking on. Maybe it's Kyle Boone, but either way,
Speaker 2: parish In Orlander, those are two guys that if you
Speaker 2: know college basketball, you know who they are. They've got resources, connections,
Speaker 2: relationships with just about probably every college basketball coach around.
Speaker 2: In fact, Norlander, if you remember all the big, big
Speaker 2: breaking news that took place during the college basketball coaching
Speaker 2: search this time this past time around, I feel like
Speaker 2: Norlander broke almost all of it. So anyways, what they
Speaker 2: do is they talk to a bunch I mean one
Speaker 2: hundred different college basketball staffers. Some of them are probably
Speaker 2: the actual head coaches at these big time programs. Maybe
Speaker 2: it's a top assistant, maybe it's a lead recruiter, and
Speaker 2: they ask all of these coaches various different questions. You know,
Speaker 2: last week they talked about the best hire, right, Hey,
Speaker 2: who do you think had the best hire this time around? Who?
Speaker 2: Or what's the most amount of money that you have
Speaker 2: heard a player or his represent represent representation asked for
Speaker 2: when it comes to nil. And then also most recently,
Speaker 2: college coaches were asked by these guys at CBS, which
Speaker 2: program do you feel like has the best nil situation?
Speaker 2: Like when you are recruiting a player, and nowadays in recruiting,
Speaker 2: you know, money matters, nil matters in a major way.
Speaker 2: So when you're recruiting a player and you hear about
Speaker 2: you hear about this program or that program being involved
Speaker 2: as well. Which one makes your butt tighten up because
Speaker 2: you realize they got more money than you. A lot
Speaker 2: of butt stuff here early on on a Wednesday afternoon.
Speaker 2: But you know what, it wasn't plant as happens, right.
Speaker 2: I'm sure a lot of times when it comes to
Speaker 2: you know that stuff wasn't planned, wasn't talked about, but
Speaker 2: it just happens, if you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: And yes, once you talk a butt stuff, once you
Speaker 1: say it once, it's just kind of there in the
Speaker 1: back of your mind. It's hard to erase.
Speaker 2: It, just kind of there in the back. Huh. That's right, Yep,
Speaker 2: that's right. Butt stuff. We're anyways, we'll get to those
Speaker 2: three different questions that were asked to college basketball coaches
Speaker 2: because I think not only is it interesting to hear
Speaker 2: what they say, but all the local programs are are
Speaker 2: mentioned by at least a couple of coaches in just
Speaker 2: about all of these questions. So we will certainly get
Speaker 2: into that. And you know, I don't I don't really
Speaker 2: have a whole lot left to throw out there that
Speaker 2: I haven't already discussed when it comes to Week zero matchups,
Speaker 2: but I am, and maybe it's already happened and I
Speaker 2: just haven't seen it yet, but I am eager to
Speaker 2: see if Delaware State does bake it to Hawaii. Because
Speaker 2: they missed their flight yesterday, they probably are in the
Speaker 2: air right now, so therefore they're probably okay. But like
Speaker 2: that is, you know, like it sounded like they were
Speaker 2: back on track, and they added a day of planning
Speaker 2: in order for them to be able to make it
Speaker 2: to Hawaii. But nobody'd be shocked if you find out, Yeah,
Speaker 2: this game isn't going to play because of more travel issues.
Speaker 2: So for those who don't know the story, Delaware State
Speaker 2: collecting a check to go across the world, seemingly to
Speaker 2: Hawaii to get their butt kicked come back and you know,
Speaker 2: have some money that can keep the lights on within
Speaker 2: their program. Well, they missed their ten and a half
Speaker 2: hour flight yesterday at JFK to go to Hawaii, and
Speaker 2: they had another one rebooked. But let's like here, we
Speaker 2: are relying on airports to get it done, right, you
Speaker 2: rebooked a flight with you know, at least sixty to
Speaker 2: seventy people right, like, there's no way they're sending less
Speaker 2: than that because you got to have I mean, he
Speaker 2: sixty to seventy would just be the players. I would
Speaker 2: assume not to mention the staff and that kind of stuff.
Speaker 2: So we can get into that, have some fun and
Speaker 2: take you up until six o'clock. Don't want to act
Speaker 2: as if this is going to be a big part
Speaker 2: of the show, but I do have it listed here,
Speaker 2: and yes, I do prepare for the show. You might
Speaker 2: not be able to tell at times, but I do prepare.
Speaker 2: Two of the best quarterbacks of all time, at least
Speaker 2: in my opinion. I would imagine thisinion it's not just mine,
Speaker 2: but Tom Brady and Peyton Manning. For a while, as
Speaker 2: somebody who loves Peyton Manning, it was hard for me
Speaker 2: to accept that, but it kind of played out to
Speaker 2: where I had no I had nothing to really lean
Speaker 2: on when it comes to defending Peyton as a better
Speaker 2: quarterback than Tom Brady. Right, we we know how this works, right,
Speaker 2: You are defined by the amount of Super Bowls you win,
Speaker 2: and Brady's just better. Peyton's great, but Brady's better. And
Speaker 2: I'm about to block out as I say that, because
Speaker 2: there was a time in my life where I wouldn't
Speaker 2: say it got into my head. Probably would, but like
Speaker 2: that would that that's what it would have taken. So anyways,
Speaker 2: these two guys are sharing their opinion on who they
Speaker 2: believe the best quarterbacks in the NFL are And you
Speaker 2: know I don't. I don't no offense to anybody in
Speaker 2: sports media with a platform, because that's that's me, right,
Speaker 2: Like I just have I have an opinion like anybody else.
Speaker 2: I have a platform that I can share it, and
Speaker 2: maybe some people view it a little differently than the
Speaker 2: average opinion, although it's not much different. But what I'm
Speaker 2: getting at is when the NFL players vote on something,
Speaker 2: I think, I think that is more valuable than anything
Speaker 2: a guy a loud mouth at ESPN or Fox, or
Speaker 2: a loudmouth radio guy like myself, Like these are your peers.
Speaker 2: These are guys who you go up against at work.
Speaker 2: So I've always felt like if you are a player
Speaker 2: in the NFL and you are voted as one of
Speaker 2: the best one hundred players in the league, like that
Speaker 2: should mean something to you in a major way. If
Speaker 2: you're a really good player and you know you're one
Speaker 2: of the top one hundred players and the players that
Speaker 2: you you know, your coworkers essentially don't vote you that way.
Speaker 2: I would feel some time, I would feel disrespected because
Speaker 2: that's not some loudmouth who's never played the game that's
Speaker 2: just in front of a microphone like me. That's somebody
Speaker 2: who you know, you would think would respect you, regardless
Speaker 2: of any personal stuff. Like you know, this is somebody
Speaker 2: you don't want to play against because you know what
Speaker 2: they're gonna bring to the table. So you know, we
Speaker 2: talked about the NFL list a couple of weeks ago
Speaker 2: when that came out. But I feel like if you're
Speaker 2: a quarterback, like again, trying to put yourself in the
Speaker 2: shoes of a Joe Burrow or a Pat Mahomes or
Speaker 2: a Lamar Jackson, you know, let's be real, like we can't.
Speaker 2: We can try to act like we can relate, but
Speaker 2: we can't. But I feel like it's not a stretch
Speaker 2: to say that every one of these guys grew up
Speaker 2: watching Manning and Brady. And if you're Mahomes, Alan Herbert,
Speaker 2: any of these guys, lamar if you hear oh wait,
Speaker 2: these these two guys are putting out who they think
Speaker 2: the best quarterback in the NFL is in the top five,
Speaker 2: top four, you're gonna want to see where they have
Speaker 2: you and if they have you there. So I don't know.
Speaker 2: I found that to be interesting because again, these are
Speaker 2: guys who are the all time greats, and you know
Speaker 2: they don't always carry the you know, both these guys
Speaker 2: I think are gonna be fine. Peyton's proven to be
Speaker 2: entertaining and a guy that could do sports media and
Speaker 2: make more money than anybody, but like, you know, their
Speaker 2: opinion on stuff matters. Now, translating that to being an entertaining,
Speaker 2: you know guy at the studio set or radio show,
Speaker 2: it's a different story. But I have no problem. I'm
Speaker 2: not one of these guys that you know, gets super
Speaker 2: gets super offended to know that people do value those
Speaker 2: that played the game more than myself. And when it
Speaker 2: comes to quarterbacks, I'm not sure you could find two
Speaker 2: retired guys that you know would share this opinion and
Speaker 2: current quarterbacks would want to at more than those two.
Speaker 2: So anyways, we're loaded today. Stick with us. It's a
Speaker 2: hump day. No more butt stuff. It got weird, I promise,
Speaker 2: sometimes it happens. You never know what's gonna happen on
Speaker 2: the show. We got a little weird with the butt stuff,
Speaker 2: and you know, it was an experience, and now we'll
Speaker 2: move on. No judgment, all right, Stick with us Coffee
Speaker 2: and Company feel about Thorton's right here on Sports Talk
Speaker 2: seven ninety. Coffee and Company fueled by Thornton's here on
Speaker 2: Sports Talk seven ninety. That's us, Nick Coffee, that's me
Speaker 2: the company man John on alongside today. And usually if
Speaker 2: there's enough smoke, you know, you end up just even
Speaker 2: without proof or legitimate reporting, you just find yourself kind
Speaker 2: of thinking, well, hey, if there's this much mention, if
Speaker 2: there's this much you know, scuttle butt, as they say
Speaker 2: in regards to a rumor, you just kind of find
Speaker 2: yourself leaning more be true than being completely made up.
Speaker 2: And that's the wholea Marii Huggins Bruce thing, which I
Speaker 2: gotta be honest with you. I believe, I believe it.
Speaker 2: It got it got rolling on Sunday, at least from
Speaker 2: what I could tell that with the injury to Colin
Speaker 2: Lacy taking place on Saturday, I mean, it's tough to
Speaker 2: not envision that some kind of tampering went on here.
Speaker 2: So long story short, and I don't hate and I
Speaker 2: hate to reset it for everybody who's been listening, but
Speaker 2: Mary Huggins Bruy's transferred from Louisville ended up transferring to
Speaker 2: South Carolina in the portal and did not win the
Speaker 2: starting job at South Carolina as the slot receiver, which
Speaker 2: is what I'm sure he was expecting and hoping. Louisville
Speaker 2: now has an immediate need for somebody kind of at
Speaker 2: that spot with Colin Lacy going down, and I don't
Speaker 2: know what led to. Actually, here's what I think happened
Speaker 2: Colin Lacey's camp, if you will, I guess that's the
Speaker 2: best way to describe it. Like I don't know if
Speaker 2: it's his mama, if it's his if it's his high
Speaker 2: school coach or who it is. But someone from his
Speaker 2: side has been sharing dms on Twitter with people you know,
Speaker 2: and they're not I mean, it's like a random from
Speaker 2: what I've seen. I've seen a screenshot that show it
Speaker 2: could be completely made up and doctorate, but it's somebody
Speaker 2: who like created a Twitter account anonymously to DM people
Speaker 2: to say, hey, this is just keeping this is this
Speaker 2: is being worked out, Like he's coming back to Louisville,
Speaker 2: and usually I would just think, okay, like that does
Speaker 2: that you know, maybe, but like I don't have a
Speaker 2: hard time believing it. But again, in the last forty
Speaker 2: eight hours, seemingly it's been talked about by a lot
Speaker 2: of Louisville fans, but nobody has ever come out and said, Okay,
Speaker 2: for sure, they're working on this. They're trying to get
Speaker 2: him back to Louisville. He wants to come back. Now,
Speaker 2: they're just working out, you know, logistics and steps that
Speaker 2: need to be taken for this to happen. There's also
Speaker 2: not been anybody that said this is nonsense. He's still
Speaker 2: at South Carolina and he's at practice every day and
Speaker 2: this is just completely made up. Somebody threw it out
Speaker 2: there to see if it would stick because of their
Speaker 2: injury that they had to call in Lacey. So you're
Speaker 2: kind of in the middle, like, well, hey, somebody would
Speaker 2: have either reported it as being nonsense if it was.
Speaker 2: But you're also thinking, well, if there was any truth
Speaker 2: to this, wouldn't we have an official report from the capitol.
Speaker 2: Jay's out there, like my man Jody Dimmling, maybe even
Speaker 2: a Matt mcgavit getting something to run with. And we
Speaker 2: don't have that, at least I haven't seen it. Well,
Speaker 2: we now have something that makes it seem like this
Speaker 2: is this is real. So the beat writer for South Carolina,
Speaker 2: he wrote, I guess in a write up today. Yet
Speaker 2: in a write up earlier today in regards to South
Speaker 2: Carolina football that South Carolina senior wide receiver of Marii
Speaker 2: Huggins Bruce his future with the game Cox program is
Speaker 2: in doubt. Says here. The Dylan High grad who transferred
Speaker 2: from Louisville to South Carolina in December, was not at
Speaker 2: the game Cocks practice on Tuesday or Wednesday, per a
Speaker 2: team source. So that confirms to me that he is
Speaker 2: trying to leave South Carolina and come back to Louisville
Speaker 2: and play. Now, what I had heard as of last night,
Speaker 2: and again I hate even saying what I've heard. I've
Speaker 2: heard what all you've heard. I've read the Internet and
Speaker 2: all the random accounts that are just throwing stuff out
Speaker 2: there to see if it's true. That's what I've heard.
Speaker 2: So I don't have any kind of direct source or
Speaker 2: anything like that, but what's out there, and this is
Speaker 2: where I mean, And I didn't see this by the
Speaker 2: way the break as far as this update from the
Speaker 2: actual South Carolina football reporter that is confirming this guy
Speaker 2: is not around at South Carolina anymore. So what was
Speaker 2: out there is that because the portal has closed, he
Speaker 2: was going to drop out of South Carolina and enroll
Speaker 2: at Louisville and walk on to the team and have
Speaker 2: nil pay his tuition to come back. Now again, before
Speaker 2: I saw this report from the South Carolina beat reporter,
Speaker 2: I heard that and I felt even less confident that
Speaker 2: there's any truth to this at all, because doesn't that
Speaker 2: John just sound like such a difficult thing to go
Speaker 2: through to come back to Louisville where you haven't practiced
Speaker 2: at all.
Speaker 1: I can't imagine anything player truly going through that kind
Speaker 1: of a process.
Speaker 2: And here's here's where I am now. And again I'm
Speaker 2: just guessing like everybody else. I don't know. I'm not
Speaker 2: talking to a Marii Huggins, Bruce, I don't have any
Speaker 2: sources here. My guess is that he wants to do this,
Speaker 2: and they think that that's the actual route to make
Speaker 2: it making it happen, which is drop out of school,
Speaker 2: en role as a normal student, and then walk onto
Speaker 2: the team. But I don't know if that's doable. Like
Speaker 2: I mean, by the way, August twenty third is the
Speaker 2: last day to enroll in classes, that's on Friday. The
Speaker 2: last day to drop classes at South Carolina was apparently
Speaker 2: on Tuesday yesterday. He is not currently in u ofl's
Speaker 2: active directory, and the directory that is for South Carolina
Speaker 2: is private, so like, if he's dropped out, I don't
Speaker 2: even know if it would show that, but you can't
Speaker 2: access any of that information at the University of South Carolina.
Speaker 2: So I mean, here again, I'm just guessing like everybody else,
Speaker 2: But my guess is that he is trying to come
Speaker 2: back to Louisville and he wants to play at Louisville.
Speaker 2: They're just trying to figure out, if you know, what
Speaker 2: route he could take in order for that to actually happen.
Speaker 2: And if you're Jeff Brohm, you're probably not going to
Speaker 2: turn this away because this is a guy who again
Speaker 2: never really emerged as a key guy for you, but
Speaker 2: clearly there's value there. He made some plays during his time,
Speaker 2: and you now have an immediate need for somebody that
Speaker 2: can play that slot receiver position. But how is that, like, again,
Speaker 2: how is this not tampering, and to be honest, like honestly,
Speaker 2: like I mean, I guess maybe he could have just
Speaker 2: bailed on South Carolina reached out to somebody at u
Speaker 2: of L, But like, wouldn't he have to get a release,
Speaker 2: like even if he like quit the team, because that's
Speaker 2: what the portal is for the portal And by the way,
Speaker 2: there's tampering going on at all times, So I'm not
Speaker 2: acting like anybody anything wrong here. I mean, tampering is
Speaker 2: taking place probably every second of every day in high
Speaker 2: level college athletics in some former fashion, and there's ways
Speaker 2: to go around it to where they technically couldn't call
Speaker 2: it tampering, Like you telling your high school coach something
Speaker 2: and your high school coach communicating with a coach at
Speaker 2: a school like that's I mean, that's not against the rules,
Speaker 2: and that's how you would do it. So maybe that's
Speaker 2: how they're going about it. But my point is this,
Speaker 2: the portal exists, so when you hit the portal and
Speaker 2: you're officially in, then you can be bombarded by schools
Speaker 2: that are interested in you. He can't enter the portal
Speaker 2: because the portal is shut down. It's you know, closed
Speaker 2: for the off season. As the actual season is about
Speaker 2: to start. So by dropping out of school and just
Speaker 2: enrolling at Louisville and like, let's just say, oh wow,
Speaker 2: I'm back at Louisville finishing school. I happened to walk
Speaker 2: by the practice facility. They got an opening out there
Speaker 2: for a slot receiver. I played slot receiver for three years. Here, Hey, guys,
Speaker 2: you remember me. It's a Mari. Hey, I'm back. Like
Speaker 2: do they want the NCUABLEA to believe that that's how
Speaker 2: this happened? But then again, who the hell cares about
Speaker 2: the NCAA anymore? Right? Like no, I mean, I don't
Speaker 2: think anybody's operating with the fear of the NCUABLA right
Speaker 2: now like they once did. So like if you did,
Speaker 2: I mean, just imagine. I mean, I'm just I don't know.
Speaker 2: I'm amused by this now because this is just something
Speaker 2: I played out in my head and I just shared
Speaker 2: most of it with you there. Like he just decided
Speaker 2: he didn't like South Carolina, didn't like football, he really
Speaker 2: missed everything about Louisville, so he decided to drop out
Speaker 2: of school, come back to Louisville, and roll in classes
Speaker 2: at the last minute. Here he is on campus just
Speaker 2: a normal student. Oh theyreve an last minute walk on tryouts,
Speaker 2: I might as well, I might as well go try out.
Speaker 2: And then he's on the team as a walk on
Speaker 2: and you're using nil money that he's getting to pay
Speaker 2: for his tuition and he's not a scholarship player. Like
Speaker 2: imagine I mean presenting that to the nc DOUBLEA as
Speaker 2: far as how this went about, like it's not realistic. However,
Speaker 2: what are they gonna do? You know what I mean? Like,
Speaker 2: what could they? You know again, they can do whatever
Speaker 2: they want, I suppose, but I just it's a reminder
Speaker 2: to me that the whole nc DOUBLEA getting involved in
Speaker 2: saying you can't do that hadn't really popped up in
Speaker 2: my mind at all in this whole you know, seventy
Speaker 2: two hour window of time here where we've discussed this rumor.
Speaker 2: And it's because and I'm sure I'm not the I mean,
Speaker 2: I'm sure others have thought about the NCAA side of it,
Speaker 2: but like people just don't fear the NSTABA like they
Speaker 2: used to, and maybe you should. But either way, like
Speaker 2: I bet U of l is probably thinking, okay, well,
Speaker 2: you know, we'll see if he arrives and if he arrives, well,
Speaker 2: you know, we'll figure it out then, but it is
Speaker 2: a wild story. And I really started to think, like
Speaker 2: right before the show started today, I thought to myself, yeah,
Speaker 2: I mean hearing that as the scenario where he comes
Speaker 2: back and can play, there's just too many obstacles in
Speaker 2: the way in so little time to get all this
Speaker 2: going that it's just very very unlikely. Well now to
Speaker 2: see that he's abandoned the South Carolina I shouldn't say abandoned,
Speaker 2: but again, the report from the South Carolina Beat reporter
Speaker 2: is that he has not been at practice the last
Speaker 2: two days for South Carolina. So we shall see what happens.
Speaker 2: And and I don't want to act as if this
Speaker 2: has become such a big talking point, because this is
Speaker 2: a guy that absolutely changes everything for you, because, to
Speaker 2: be honest with you, he's not as good as Colin
Speaker 2: Lacy on paper. Now, we'll never know what Colin Lacey
Speaker 2: can do at this level until we actually see it.
Speaker 2: And unfortunately he's out six eight weeks, so we're gonna
Speaker 2: have to wait a little while. But you definitely have
Speaker 2: a guy who knows the offense. He was productive had
Speaker 2: about twelve hundred yards or so during his career eleven
Speaker 2: career touchdowns. I mean, this is a guy that if
Speaker 2: you can, if you could, if you can get him back,
Speaker 2: you would probably say hell yeah given the circumstances. But
Speaker 2: I just think in order for that to happen, there's
Speaker 2: a lot that needs to be done in a very
Speaker 2: little time. And oh yeah, the NCAA may step in
Speaker 2: and say, yeah, we see what you're doing here. We
Speaker 2: are not we are not granting this guy eligibility and
Speaker 2: if you play him, you're in trouble. So text that
Speaker 2: just came in on the Ellen and Federal Credit Union
Speaker 2: text line says percentage chances Nick that Amari Huggins Bruce
Speaker 2: is on the field when Louisville plays Austin p I'm
Speaker 2: gonna go. I'm gonna go thirty five percent chance, just
Speaker 2: because I mean, that sounds like a very very far
Speaker 2: fetched scenario to to you know, to all a line
Speaker 2: together to where here he is. He's here, school's paid for,
Speaker 2: he's walking on, he's a student, he's you know, he's
Speaker 2: back on the roster eligible. I just think that's a
Speaker 2: lot to get done. I mean, you gotta keep in mind,
Speaker 2: Louisville place next Saturday, right, I mean it's uh, the
Speaker 2: timing is just it. I mean, you've got a Tomming
Speaker 2: crunch here, You've got eligibility stuff that you don't know about,
Speaker 2: and then you know, maybe South Carolina convinces him to stay.
Speaker 2: I'm not sure. But anyways, so let's get to our
Speaker 2: next break. But I do want to remind you real quick,
Speaker 2: as I mentioned the text line, it's five oh two
Speaker 2: six five three zero seven ninety the llen N Federal

Speaker 2: to do. I mean I would have say a lot
Speaker 2: of I mean, in fact, there was something I read
Speaker 2: the other day. I don't remember the exact number, but
Speaker 2: the amount of when people are accessing something on the
Speaker 2: World Wide Web, like ninety something percent of the time,
Speaker 2: they're doing it on their phone and a device rather
Speaker 2: than you know, an old school computer. So you know,
Speaker 2: doing whatever way you want. Just know there's a lot

Speaker 2: I had to ask John this during the break, kind
Speaker 2: of how we got there, because there's a lot of
Speaker 2: times we end up going down paths and it just
Speaker 2: takes the show in a direction I never would have imagined.
Speaker 2: And I always have a tough time remembering how we
Speaker 2: got there, and it's never really that important.
Speaker 1: But Rosco.
Speaker 2: We had somebody call in named Roscoe who helped us
Speaker 2: out because I was telling folks how they can you know,
Speaker 2: they can call in, and I always say, hey, five
Speaker 2: o' two, five seven one seventy nine hundred is the
Speaker 2: number if you want to give us a call. And
Speaker 2: you know, I just I'm programmed to always use area code.
Speaker 2: But Roscoe confirmed that if you just live in the
Speaker 2: five h two area and you call just five seven
Speaker 2: one seventy nine hundred, you don't need the area code
Speaker 2: because we share the same area code. So he was
Speaker 2: doing a little quality control for us, just making sure,
Speaker 2: you know, just in an inspection to see if in
Speaker 2: fact that is true. And he was right. And I
Speaker 2: just remembered Roscoe as a hell of a name. And
Speaker 2: I've just decided, now that we've got a Rosco on
Speaker 2: the line again, it's gonna be a Rosco showed it.
Speaker 2: If your na's Roscoe, you call in, you getting on
Speaker 2: the air. I mean, I can't prove that you're gonna
Speaker 2: be legit, but I'm gonna trust that this guy who
Speaker 2: called in right here, Roscoe. Okay, what's up, Roscoe?
Speaker 3: I think I'm the only one in Louisville. Besides my father.
Speaker 3: That's what I was telling your co host. I'm a
Speaker 3: thirteen generation. I can confirm at least six of us.
Speaker 3: Like my father's names Roscoe, his father's names Roscoe. It
Speaker 3: goes back and back and back. Unfortunately they've all passed away.
Speaker 3: It's just me and I have two teenage daughters. So
Speaker 3: unless they pass on the name, I get it. I
Speaker 3: get a lot of looks when I told people want
Speaker 3: to name, but I'm glad that there's someone that you know,
Speaker 3: a kid, so it's still staying alive. Hell yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: I just appreciate. I appreciate you taking my call. And
Speaker 3: I told I told you, buddy, I followed you on
Speaker 3: X real quick. You all were talking about butt Craft
Speaker 3: State University. Yes, I'm a graphic designer. I've put some
Speaker 3: branding together for you for your butt Cracked State if
Speaker 3: you want to keep it going. Hell yeah, XDM.
Speaker 2: What a guy, Yeah, what a guy. Thank you appreciate it. Roscoe.
Speaker 2: That's why we need more Rosco's out there. Man, how
Speaker 2: about this guy providing good content for the show. Hell
Speaker 2: of a story. A thirteenth generation Roscoe and the reason
Speaker 2: you get those looks because it's a strong name. When
Speaker 2: you hear there's a Rosco around, people look up. They
Speaker 2: perk up a little bit. They want to know Roscoe's here.
Speaker 1: The butt up a little bit.
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, because you know, it's a strong name. And
Speaker 2: look your daughters. I hate it for him, but there's
Speaker 2: no scenario if they have a son they can't name
Speaker 2: it Roscoe. Like it's just gonna be a it's gonna happen,
Speaker 2: has to happen. I mean, they would break. I mean,
Speaker 2: that'd be I mean that I don't want to. I
Speaker 2: don't want to overspeak here, but like they just have
Speaker 2: to know one of them. If they have a child
Speaker 2: and it's a boy, it's Roscoe. Hell name the daughter Roscoe.
Speaker 2: We got to keep it going. Thirteen generations. That's that's
Speaker 2: that's that's awesome. So hey, you're not alone again. When
Speaker 2: I when I mentioned Roscoe is a rare name and
Speaker 2: it's an awesome name, I mentioned that there's a buddy
Speaker 2: of my son who's four, who is in his kindergar
Speaker 2: not to kindergarten, crass, his his daycare class, and it's
Speaker 2: a little kid named Roscoe. And you know, typically you
Speaker 2: know see little kids named Roscoe. But this Roscoe guy,
Speaker 2: he's got some flare to him. He's got some some
Speaker 2: awesome long shaggy hair. Him and him and Moose they
Speaker 2: love to, you know, have fun at daycare their buddies.
Speaker 2: I know, at least a couple of days a week
Speaker 2: whenever I take him the daycare, depending on you know,
Speaker 2: what the kids are doing. Occasionally they're in like their
Speaker 2: class and I don't see any of the other kids.
Speaker 2: But if Roscoe, if he's, if he's around the door
Speaker 2: when Moose walks in. Man, those bros they hug it out. Man,
Speaker 2: They're happy to see each other. They're ready to raise
Speaker 2: some hell at daycare h and have some fun. So
Speaker 2: shout out to the Roscos today. It's a Roscoe show
Speaker 2: here on a Wednesday afternoon coffee and company fuel about
Speaker 2: Thornton's all right, so let's do this. Let's take our
Speaker 2: top of the hour break here. We got a lot
Speaker 2: more to get into, two more hours to go. I
Speaker 2: do want to get into this conversation, and it really
Speaker 2: it's I mean, it's not really a conversation. But we'll
