00:00:51.079 --> 00:00:58.200
<v Speaker 5>buy him out right, right, they do that. If you're

18
00:00:58.240 --> 00:00:59.479
<v Speaker 5>an engineer, you figure out ada.

19
00:01:00.079 --> 00:01:03.320

<v Speaker 4>hamstring injury he suffered in yesterday's game versus the Falcons.

22
00:01:12.280 --> 00:01:15.280
<v Speaker 3>Well that's good because he thinks his team sucks. It's

23
00:01:15.319 --> 00:01:18.120
<v Speaker 3>like he's probably pretty happy about that. Did you see that?

24
00:01:18.879 --> 00:01:21.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, that was They almost came back when he went

25
00:01:21.640 --> 00:01:22.239
<v Speaker 4>out of the game.

26
00:01:22.319 --> 00:01:24.840
<v Speaker 5>So yeah, yeah, which, yeah, I don't know. The question

27
00:01:24.959 --> 00:01:28.079
<v Speaker 5>is is this a talk aboution by subtraction? Yeah, no, exactly,

28
00:01:28.239 --> 00:01:29.400
<v Speaker 5>talk about bios re worse.

29
00:01:30.159 --> 00:01:31.319
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, right, I know.

30
00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:35.079
<v Speaker 2>It's like guys who are paying to me, to me,

31
00:01:35.319 --> 00:01:36.719
<v Speaker 2>you know, I used to be a cowboy ten many

32
00:01:36.760 --> 00:01:38.920
<v Speaker 2>years ago, and yeah, you just see these guys. Romo

33
00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:41.200
<v Speaker 2>has a lot of a nice career, as they say,

34
00:01:41.359 --> 00:01:43.400
<v Speaker 2>but he couldn't win and they were never gonna win

35
00:01:43.400 --> 00:01:43.680
<v Speaker 2>with him.

36
00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:45.480
<v Speaker 3>They're never gonna win with Dak either. I don't think so.

37
00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:47.319
<v Speaker 3>I don't think so.

38
00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:53.319
<v Speaker 4>Forty nine Ers running back Kristan McCaffrey has officially returned

39
00:01:53.319 --> 00:01:55.840
<v Speaker 4>the practice, so he will have to be activated in

40
00:01:56.079 --> 00:01:58.359
<v Speaker 4>the next three weeks to return the game time.

41
00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:05.760
<v Speaker 5>Well, that should make fantasy football fans some happy. You know,

42
00:02:05.840 --> 00:02:08.240
<v Speaker 5>the guy, the guy in front of me in my league,

43
00:02:08.319 --> 00:02:12.960
<v Speaker 5>he picked McCaffrey. I thought I thought he was smart man.

44
00:02:13.120 --> 00:02:17.360
<v Speaker 5>Damn yeh hasn't worked out very well for him. But yeah,

45
00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:21.520
<v Speaker 5>it's gonna be uh, it'll be interesting he comes back.

46
00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:25.879
<v Speaker 4>The Cardinals improved to five and four yesterday with a

47
00:02:26.080 --> 00:02:28.879
<v Speaker 4>twenty nine to nine win over the Bears.

48
00:02:29.199 --> 00:02:31.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, these guys have surprised the heck out of me

49
00:02:31.319 --> 00:02:33.360
<v Speaker 2>because they were not doing well and then all of

50
00:02:33.400 --> 00:02:36.400
<v Speaker 2>a sudden, Murray's playing really well and they're winning games.

51
00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:40.199
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, they look really they look really good. Their defense

52
00:02:40.240 --> 00:02:42.120
<v Speaker 5>looked really good. I didn't pay him any attention to

53
00:02:42.159 --> 00:02:45.360
<v Speaker 5>the game. But he's coming through. I mean, come on,

54
00:02:45.439 --> 00:02:49.280
<v Speaker 5>he's a shorter quarterback who's done well. Now yeah, I mean, well,

55
00:02:50.199 --> 00:02:52.560
<v Speaker 5>well again, they get him out of the pocket, right,

56
00:02:52.599 --> 00:02:55.759
<v Speaker 5>They move him around. They don't try and play him

57
00:02:55.759 --> 00:02:58.759
<v Speaker 5>like he's a big where he's a couple is batted down.

58
00:02:59.400 --> 00:03:01.680
<v Speaker 5>But they get him out. They get him out, they

59
00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:03.759
<v Speaker 5>get him moving next thing, you know. But he didn't

60
00:03:03.800 --> 00:03:09.520
<v Speaker 5>run much. So, like I said that, they looked really good.

61
00:03:09.520 --> 00:03:11.800
<v Speaker 5>Their running game was like on fire.

62
00:03:12.039 --> 00:03:12.560
<v Speaker 3>Right.

63
00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:17.080
<v Speaker 4>Yankees pitcher Garret Cole will stay on the four year,

64
00:03:17.080 --> 00:03:20.120
<v Speaker 4>one hundred and four million dollar contract that he previously

65
00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:22.919
<v Speaker 4>opted out on the team worked on it and came

66
00:03:22.960 --> 00:03:24.639
<v Speaker 4>to agreement for that contract.

67
00:03:24.639 --> 00:03:25.319
<v Speaker 3>You're okay with that?

68
00:03:25.719 --> 00:03:29.080
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it's only thirty two thirty.

69
00:03:29.319 --> 00:03:31.960
<v Speaker 3>I see, why didn't I see you that Wednesday thirty four? Yeah,

70
00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:34.879
<v Speaker 3>Wednesday they were still in it. They were still playing it, right,

71
00:03:34.919 --> 00:03:38.479
<v Speaker 3>what'd you think that was a horrible game? Horrible game?

72
00:03:39.199 --> 00:03:41.599
<v Speaker 5>His assert inning that yeah, I mean it was it

73
00:03:41.719 --> 00:03:44.000
<v Speaker 5>was one inning, but it was yeah, it was he

74
00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:46.960
<v Speaker 5>still picture really Oh yeah, he did great, except he

75
00:03:46.960 --> 00:03:47.759
<v Speaker 5>didn't cover first.

76
00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:51.159
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that inning should have been over long before that. Absolutely.

77
00:03:51.199 --> 00:03:53.080
<v Speaker 5>I mean, you know the fact that he gets in

78
00:03:53.080 --> 00:03:55.039
<v Speaker 5>there and he strikes out those two guys, including a

79
00:03:55.080 --> 00:04:01.280
<v Speaker 5>tawny with bases loaded, is you know, that's top level stuff.

80
00:04:01.759 --> 00:04:06.919
<v Speaker 5>He is arguably the best pitcher, right handed pitcher in baseball. Uh,

81
00:04:07.080 --> 00:04:10.400
<v Speaker 5>Yank Yankees bringing him back is a bit of a

82
00:04:10.400 --> 00:04:14.080
<v Speaker 5>no brainer. Now, can the Yankee sign Soto? That's gonna

83
00:04:14.080 --> 00:04:14.719
<v Speaker 5>be the big one?

84
00:04:14.960 --> 00:04:15.199
<v Speaker 3>Yep.

85
00:04:16.439 --> 00:04:19.160

<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that's gonna be a good game tonight, right will

89
00:04:27.079 --> 00:04:30.800
<v Speaker 3>be that's in the Spokane or somewhere, no road somewhere.

90
00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:33.920
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I know the Texas Ohio State games in Vegas.

91
00:04:34.079 --> 00:04:37.240

94
00:04:40.759 --> 00:04:48.160
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it's in Spokane starting at eleven thirty Easterns. Yeah,

95
00:04:48.560 --> 00:04:52.399
<v Speaker 4>the Arizona women's team will start their season today at

96
00:04:52.439 --> 00:04:55.040
<v Speaker 4>four pm against UT Arlington.

97
00:04:56.079 --> 00:04:59.720
<v Speaker 5>Okay, that's right now, yep. It'll be interesting to see

98
00:04:59.720 --> 00:05:02.160
<v Speaker 5>how they. Uh, you go to a lot of those games.

99
00:05:02.439 --> 00:05:03.839
<v Speaker 5>We do go to a lot of those games, and

100
00:05:03.879 --> 00:05:06.160
<v Speaker 5>you know, we're you know, pretty interesting.

101
00:05:06.399 --> 00:05:06.839
<v Speaker 3>I tell you.

102
00:05:07.560 --> 00:05:12.079
<v Speaker 5>She got those women to play so hard. Yeah, I

103
00:05:12.079 --> 00:05:15.879
<v Speaker 5>mean they had they had essentially five players and then

104
00:05:16.120 --> 00:05:19.000
<v Speaker 5>to watch volleyball players, you know, and it was like

105
00:05:20.079 --> 00:05:23.120
<v Speaker 5>or a volleyball player and a track a track star,

106
00:05:23.240 --> 00:05:27.560
<v Speaker 5>and he played so hard. Arguably, last year was probably

107
00:05:27.600 --> 00:05:31.839
<v Speaker 5>her whatever better coaching jobs because of what those circumstances.

108
00:05:32.839 --> 00:05:36.279
<v Speaker 5>But the circumstances to get there are kind of like

109
00:05:36.480 --> 00:05:37.279
<v Speaker 5>how did this happen?

110
00:05:37.720 --> 00:05:37.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

111
00:05:37.920 --> 00:05:39.480
<v Speaker 5>How did we get to the point where we're playing

112
00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:42.399
<v Speaker 5>five players? Well a lot of it was injuries, but

113
00:05:42.399 --> 00:05:46.480
<v Speaker 5>a lot of it was people transferring, you know, wanting

114
00:05:46.519 --> 00:05:48.519
<v Speaker 5>to get out of there. I mean, the word was

115
00:05:48.639 --> 00:05:51.879
<v Speaker 5>like going, uh, you know, I'm transferring because she wants

116
00:05:51.920 --> 00:05:53.199
<v Speaker 5>to focus on defense.

117
00:05:53.600 --> 00:05:54.199
<v Speaker 3>I don't do that.

118
00:05:54.439 --> 00:05:57.079
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I don't do that. It's like, yeah, but could

<v Speaker 3>Yeah, anyway, that's all I got. So he got, we've

153
00:07:52.319 --> 00:07:53.240
<v Speaker 3>got time, we got some way.

154
00:07:53.240 --> 00:07:55.480
<v Speaker 2>Maybe take some calls you guys want to call if

155
00:07:55.759 --> 00:07:58.360
<v Speaker 2>you agree with Jim or anybody with five two oh

156
00:07:58.879 --> 00:08:00.399
<v Speaker 2>for one six seventy four forty.

157
00:08:01.560 --> 00:08:04.079
<v Speaker 3>I was wondering what what Brendan said today.

158
00:08:04.199 --> 00:08:07.360
<v Speaker 2>I didn't see much on Twitter, but he didn't fire

159
00:08:07.360 --> 00:08:11.959
<v Speaker 2>anybody today. You said, maybe because it's because it's a

160
00:08:12.120 --> 00:08:14.399
<v Speaker 2>bye week, right, I don't think there's a need for that,

161
00:08:14.600 --> 00:08:16.519
<v Speaker 2>or really I really don't because it's three weeks last.

162
00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:21.800
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, that is then you reevaluate and see, uh, this

163
00:08:22.000 --> 00:08:25.079
<v Speaker 5>is definitely undoubtedly the low point. Well yeah, yeah, I

164
00:08:25.160 --> 00:08:27.879
<v Speaker 5>think guess what, guess what could get even worse? Yeah,

165
00:08:27.920 --> 00:08:31.399
<v Speaker 5>exactly the low point continues to maybe get to get

166
00:08:31.439 --> 00:08:32.039
<v Speaker 5>a watermark.

167
00:08:33.120 --> 00:08:34.879
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I don low point.

168
00:08:34.879 --> 00:08:35.200
<v Speaker 7>I don't know.

169
00:08:35.360 --> 00:08:37.559
<v Speaker 5>So so here's here's one of the problems. Like, we're

170
00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:39.440
<v Speaker 5>not gonna we're not gonna get much lower. I don't

171
00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:44.159
<v Speaker 5>I think expectations are are about zero. Now, well, if

172
00:08:44.159 --> 00:08:45.879
<v Speaker 5>you're gonna get continue to get hammered. I mean you're

173
00:08:45.879 --> 00:08:48.120
<v Speaker 5>thinking of what we're gonna get it, continue to getting hammered.

174
00:08:48.120 --> 00:08:50.600
<v Speaker 5>I don't know any you know there there there may

175
00:08:50.720 --> 00:08:55.559
<v Speaker 5>be people that that are like that are I'm sure

176
00:08:55.600 --> 00:08:57.720
<v Speaker 5>there are people that are. I'm positive about the future.

177
00:08:58.120 --> 00:09:01.519
<v Speaker 5>So let me maybe clear. I am positive about the future.

178
00:09:01.639 --> 00:09:04.720
<v Speaker 5>I think that next year we're gonna be better. I

179
00:09:04.759 --> 00:09:07.279
<v Speaker 5>think we're gonna be more, We're gonna be solidified. I

180
00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:11.759
<v Speaker 5>do think that we're gonna uh that Brennan's gonna have

181
00:09:11.879 --> 00:09:15.360
<v Speaker 5>a better team than we do this here. I don't

182
00:09:15.399 --> 00:09:19.200
<v Speaker 5>have any expectations. You you see my face as I

183
00:09:19.320 --> 00:09:22.240
<v Speaker 5>look at you and listen to you. Yeah, And it

184
00:09:23.000 --> 00:09:25.120
<v Speaker 5>kills me every every time I take a look at it.

185
00:09:25.240 --> 00:09:27.600
<v Speaker 5>So where in the world you're picking this stuff from?

186
00:09:27.759 --> 00:09:30.039
<v Speaker 5>Where you getting this from? I think this is the

187
00:09:30.080 --> 00:09:32.639
<v Speaker 5>horse ras that you said you picked on Saturday, you'd

188
00:09:32.679 --> 00:09:36.320
<v Speaker 5>think the past performances. Let me look, Oh he fired

189
00:09:36.759 --> 00:09:39.080
<v Speaker 5>five months ago, he might be able to do that

190
00:09:39.200 --> 00:09:43.159
<v Speaker 5>same thing. Now he's gonna have a different horse. He's

191
00:09:43.200 --> 00:09:45.519
<v Speaker 5>gonna have a different horse. The horse is gonna be

192
00:09:45.600 --> 00:09:46.919
<v Speaker 5>different different.

193
00:09:46.960 --> 00:09:50.360
<v Speaker 3>What does that mean? You've You've sat.

194
00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:53.360
<v Speaker 5>There in that chair every Monday that I've been here,

195
00:09:53.799 --> 00:09:56.200
<v Speaker 5>and you said there's a disconnect with the place.

196
00:09:56.320 --> 00:09:58.080
<v Speaker 3>Yes, very much, there's a disconnect.

197
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:01.120
<v Speaker 5>If I would tell you that, I think that next

198
00:10:01.240 --> 00:10:03.399
<v Speaker 5>year there, he is going to be better connected with

199
00:10:03.480 --> 00:10:03.879
<v Speaker 5>the players.

200
00:10:03.919 --> 00:10:07.679
<v Speaker 3>He's gonna have another year. It's gonna be his team. Okay.

201
00:10:07.759 --> 00:10:09.519
<v Speaker 5>I mean he's going to bring in his players from

202
00:10:09.559 --> 00:10:12.039
<v Speaker 5>the from the beginning. I just think that that's gonna

203
00:10:12.039 --> 00:10:15.000
<v Speaker 5>be better. And you buy into the coaches philosophy, you

204
00:10:15.159 --> 00:10:18.799
<v Speaker 5>buy into the system that the team is better.

205
00:10:19.039 --> 00:10:22.279
<v Speaker 3>Em world, could you call nine one one your dad?

206
00:10:22.399 --> 00:10:25.120
<v Speaker 3>This is not your dad. Someone kidnapped him on your

207
00:10:25.159 --> 00:10:25.559
<v Speaker 3>way here.

208
00:10:26.639 --> 00:10:32.960
<v Speaker 5>Come on, man, it's already don't composed to be. It

209

213
00:10:45.919 --> 00:10:48.480
<v Speaker 3>and you just you can't correct because it's not correctable.

214
00:10:50.200 --> 00:10:51.720
<v Speaker 5>I don't know, you know, what the hell do I know?

215

<v Speaker 5>I'm sold. We're talking sports. We don't need facts, you know,

220
00:11:07.679 --> 00:11:11.840

226
00:11:27.879 --> 00:11:31.759
<v Speaker 2>Brian Jeffries. Uh is going to join us. I'm curious

227
00:11:32.000 --> 00:11:34.080
<v Speaker 2>because he's not part of the team as a former player,

228
00:11:34.440 --> 00:11:35.960
<v Speaker 2>but he's with the team. You know, he's with the

229
00:11:36.000 --> 00:11:39.240
<v Speaker 2>team and how it affects them because you want to cover,

230
00:11:39.399 --> 00:11:40.639
<v Speaker 2>you want to cover a team that's good.

231
00:11:41.120 --> 00:11:42.720
<v Speaker 5>So he was on a couple of weeks ago and

232
00:11:42.919 --> 00:11:45.879
<v Speaker 5>very positive, very up be very like, hell yeah, we're

233
00:11:45.919 --> 00:11:47.679
<v Speaker 5>right there on the cusp. Yeah yeah, we're right there

234
00:11:47.720 --> 00:11:51.279
<v Speaker 5>on the cosp. Cusp has left the building. Yeah yeah,

235
00:11:51.320 --> 00:11:53.159

237
00:11:55.399 --> 00:11:58.039
<v Speaker 5>lot of kool aid at that point. Yeah. And you know,

238
00:11:59.399 --> 00:12:02.799
<v Speaker 5>I think that injuries has descipated our defense. We kind

239
00:12:02.799 --> 00:12:05.000
<v Speaker 5>of said, Okay, the defense is gonna hold us together

240
00:12:05.080 --> 00:12:09.279
<v Speaker 5>until we get the offense rolling again. Defense, defense has

241
00:12:09.360 --> 00:12:11.799
<v Speaker 5>left the building. There's a lot of want time. And

242
00:12:11.840 --> 00:12:15.320
<v Speaker 5>then that's yeah, yeah, a lot a lot of want

243
00:12:15.960 --> 00:12:21.279

<v Speaker 5>the team that's one in eighteen. You know, we lose

264
00:13:20.279 --> 00:13:22.679

272
00:13:40.200 --> 00:13:42.080
<v Speaker 5>that issue last year? Was it issue last year when

00:13:47.320 --> 00:13:49.159
<v Speaker 5>years ago. Yeah, That's why I didn't feel like saying

276
00:13:49.200 --> 00:13:52.000
<v Speaker 5>that Yeah, they had no business.

277
00:13:51.759 --> 00:13:54.759
<v Speaker 3>Company and win it. Yeah and exactly, yeah they do that,

278
00:13:55.600 --> 00:13:59.240
<v Speaker 3>explain every Yeah, I don't.

279
00:13:59.679 --> 00:14:02.759
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, this is gonna be a fun a fun time.

280
00:14:03.000 --> 00:14:05.679
<v Speaker 5>And what I'll tell you what will be fun is

281
00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:09.240
<v Speaker 5>to sit there and listen to the Arizona fans who

282
00:14:09.279 --> 00:14:12.039
<v Speaker 5>were used to going, you know, we go through the

283
00:14:12.080 --> 00:14:14.279
<v Speaker 5>Pac twelve and we're eighteen to two or whatever, you know,

284
00:14:14.320 --> 00:14:16.600
<v Speaker 5>and it's like going, Oh, I can't believe we lost

285
00:14:16.639 --> 00:14:18.840
<v Speaker 5>two games even and seven. What are you talking about? Yeah,

286
00:14:18.840 --> 00:14:20.840
<v Speaker 5>it's like that's what I'm saying. We're gonna get crushed

287
00:14:20.840 --> 00:14:22.519
<v Speaker 5>in the tournament. We're gonna be a four seed. Blah

288
00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:26.399
<v Speaker 5>blah blah. Yeah, yeah, we're gonna go in. We'll probably

289
00:14:26.440 --> 00:14:28.559
<v Speaker 5>go in the tournament four or five seed, i'd imagine.

290
00:14:28.559 --> 00:14:30.960
<v Speaker 5>I mean, I know that the already's picking us as

291
00:14:31.200 --> 00:14:35.120
<v Speaker 5>I think a three seed the uh, but we go

292
00:14:35.200 --> 00:14:37.600
<v Speaker 5>in there as a four or five seed, and I

293
00:14:37.679 --> 00:14:39.159
<v Speaker 5>think we're better prepared than.

294
00:14:39.159 --> 00:14:40.080
<v Speaker 3>What we what we have.

295
00:14:41.360 --> 00:14:42.799
<v Speaker 2>I really like this team because there's a lot of

296
00:14:43.320 --> 00:14:46.960
<v Speaker 2>a lot of holes that were filled and good with

297
00:14:47.480 --> 00:14:51.639
<v Speaker 2>with quality players and things that you needed. You know,

00:21:51.240 --> 00:21:54.799
<v Speaker 5>may want to look that one up. Sorry, professor here

450
00:21:54.839 --> 00:21:57.559
<v Speaker 5>at you there you go. Guys, you know you're in trouble,

451
00:21:57.640 --> 00:22:04.480
<v Speaker 5>right but actually financially financially, yeah, I know we're from trouble. Financially.

452
00:22:05.119 --> 00:22:07.759
<v Speaker 5>I get that, get word of I get word of

453
00:22:07.799 --> 00:22:11.160
<v Speaker 5>that every time I look at my paycheck. Yeah, yeah,

454
00:22:11.279 --> 00:22:12.799
<v Speaker 5>speaking of which it's gonna be tough for them to

455
00:22:12.880 --> 00:22:14.000
<v Speaker 5>raise money on this team.

456
00:22:14.279 --> 00:22:17.559
<v Speaker 3>That's probably that's another thing, the biggest fallout of this, right, right, right,

457
00:22:17.880 --> 00:22:18.680
<v Speaker 3>it's tough for you know.

458
00:22:18.880 --> 00:22:21.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well, hey, I already put a few thousand dollars

459
00:22:21.440 --> 00:22:22.759
<v Speaker 2>into this. What what I get from it?

460
00:22:22.839 --> 00:22:25.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah? What did I get from this? Yeah? I mean

461
00:22:26.319 --> 00:22:28.559
<v Speaker 3>it's a lot easier to raise money on a winning team.

462
00:22:28.720 --> 00:22:33.079
<v Speaker 3>The month is this you? Yes, sir, there is great

463
00:22:33.119 --> 00:22:37.119
<v Speaker 3>to have you on the show. The love it so

464
00:22:37.559 --> 00:22:37.799
<v Speaker 3>tell me.

465
00:22:37.839 --> 00:22:40.759
<v Speaker 2>I was telling everybody here before you came on, maybe

466
00:22:40.880 --> 00:22:44.119
<v Speaker 2>last last hour or last segment, that I think this

467
00:22:44.279 --> 00:22:45.880
<v Speaker 2>is tough for you. I would assume it is for you.

468
00:22:46.160 --> 00:22:48.519
<v Speaker 2>You're a former U of a player. You love this program,

469
00:22:48.680 --> 00:22:51.279
<v Speaker 2>you love this team. Uh, and and you're going and

470
00:22:51.400 --> 00:22:53.720
<v Speaker 2>you're and you're and you're doing your job and then

471
00:22:53.759 --> 00:22:56.119
<v Speaker 2>you're seeing stuff, you're seeing them not playing.

472
00:22:56.200 --> 00:22:57.519
<v Speaker 3>Well. How has it been?

473
00:22:59.440 --> 00:23:02.839
<v Speaker 16>Yeah, I think you accurately describe it. It's it's been

474
00:23:03.000 --> 00:23:06.079
<v Speaker 16>very tough. And yeah, I feel like I kind of

475
00:23:06.119 --> 00:23:09.519
<v Speaker 16>live and die with the team, the success of the team, right,

476
00:23:09.920 --> 00:23:13.079
<v Speaker 16>And it's been really difficult to watch you know, this

477
00:23:13.200 --> 00:23:15.920
<v Speaker 16>guy's struggle because I mean I know that it's not

478
00:23:16.039 --> 00:23:18.559
<v Speaker 16>for a lack of effort or a lack of you know,

479
00:23:19.160 --> 00:23:23.400
<v Speaker 16>just giving everything you have, but you know it's not

480
00:23:23.519 --> 00:23:26.839
<v Speaker 16>working out, you know, and for for multiple reasons. There's

481
00:23:26.880 --> 00:23:29.359
<v Speaker 16>not just any one reason, right, for multiple reasons. The

482
00:23:29.440 --> 00:23:32.200
<v Speaker 16>season is kind of you know, it's kind of you know,

483
00:23:32.319 --> 00:23:35.039
<v Speaker 16>gone down to drain a little bit. So that's that's difficult.

484
00:23:35.160 --> 00:23:39.279
<v Speaker 16>It's difficult for me to to to see. Yeah, it's

485
00:23:39.319 --> 00:23:40.119
<v Speaker 16>really been difficult.

486
00:23:40.519 --> 00:23:40.640
<v Speaker 3>Right.

487
00:23:40.720 --> 00:23:43.200
<v Speaker 2>So you know, we always say that Brian is kind

488
00:23:43.200 --> 00:23:46.000
<v Speaker 2>of he plays it as uh, straight and narrow. He's

489
00:23:46.119 --> 00:23:50.039
<v Speaker 2>not a great uh cheerleader, which makes his job even

490
00:23:50.119 --> 00:23:53.039
<v Speaker 2>tougher and and and very good at what he does,

491
00:23:53.119 --> 00:23:56.759
<v Speaker 2>you know, of course, and most schools who are Brian

492
00:23:57.039 --> 00:24:01.240
<v Speaker 2>are cheerleaders raw and he just plays post the best.

493
00:24:01.519 --> 00:24:03.880
<v Speaker 3>You're the guy. You're the guy, and I'm not you know,

494
00:24:04.000 --> 00:24:06.160
<v Speaker 3>blowing smoke. You're the guy that's a little bit more

495
00:24:06.240 --> 00:24:07.759
<v Speaker 3>positive in this situation, right.

496
00:24:08.880 --> 00:24:11.839
<v Speaker 16>Yeah, yeah, no, absolutely. I mean, I I think I

497
00:24:12.039 --> 00:24:16.160
<v Speaker 16>always I always start with a positive take and a

498
00:24:16.200 --> 00:24:18.960
<v Speaker 16>positive spin. I don't call it a spin, but I

499
00:24:19.200 --> 00:24:21.440
<v Speaker 16>think I probably look at it from a different perspective.

500
00:24:22.599 --> 00:24:26.319
<v Speaker 16>But yet it gets increasingly difficult when you know, things

501
00:24:26.400 --> 00:24:29.440
<v Speaker 16>really falling apart. And so yeah, I think, I don't

502
00:24:29.440 --> 00:24:32.279
<v Speaker 16>know if you listen to our last broadcast, but that

503
00:24:32.400 --> 00:24:36.160
<v Speaker 16>was a different that was a difficult broadcast. And and

504
00:24:36.359 --> 00:24:39.160
<v Speaker 16>I think that we you know, we we under we

505
00:24:39.279 --> 00:24:42.079
<v Speaker 16>really understand that, you know, the injuries are something that's

506
00:24:42.079 --> 00:24:45.319
<v Speaker 16>a part of the game, and you know, no one

507
00:24:45.400 --> 00:24:48.079
<v Speaker 16>can can really do anything about that, and you know,

508
00:24:48.119 --> 00:24:50.440
<v Speaker 16>when guys are blowing their knees out things of that nature.

509
00:24:51.000 --> 00:24:55.079
<v Speaker 16>It's just tough to see some of the things that

510
00:24:55.160 --> 00:24:58.839
<v Speaker 16>I'm seeing, like you know, the penalties and seeing you know,

511
00:25:01.160 --> 00:25:05.160
<v Speaker 16>some of the things, you know, as far as systemically

512
00:25:05.880 --> 00:25:08.440
<v Speaker 16>when I'm looking at the offense and those things that

513
00:25:08.640 --> 00:25:10.440
<v Speaker 16>are just been tough to watch because I feel like they,

514
00:25:10.920 --> 00:25:12.920
<v Speaker 16>you know, in those areas, I think they may have

515
00:25:12.960 --> 00:25:14.720
<v Speaker 16>missed the boat in some of those areas. So that

516
00:25:14.880 --> 00:25:17.119
<v Speaker 16>was that was difficult for me to watch, just to

517
00:25:17.200 --> 00:25:22.160
<v Speaker 16>be perfectly honest. And I know that they you know,

518
00:25:22.400 --> 00:25:24.799
<v Speaker 16>these guys want to get fixed and natural they're going

519
00:25:24.839 --> 00:25:27.880
<v Speaker 16>to spend all the time and resources doing but it's

520
00:25:28.000 --> 00:25:31.640
<v Speaker 16>just you know, we're four games, we got three games left. Yes,

521
00:25:31.839 --> 00:25:33.519
<v Speaker 16>it's not not a lot of fixing that you can

522
00:25:33.640 --> 00:25:35.680
<v Speaker 16>really do at this stage, and you just have to

523
00:25:35.759 --> 00:25:39.119
<v Speaker 16>try to keep it together at the themes and play

524
00:25:39.160 --> 00:25:41.200
<v Speaker 16>it out. But yeah, it's been it's been hard man

525
00:25:42.160 --> 00:25:43.359
<v Speaker 16>to watch well.

526
00:25:43.559 --> 00:25:46.880
<v Speaker 5>The uh you know, they asked press one time asked

527
00:25:46.960 --> 00:25:49.240
<v Speaker 5>John John McKay when he was with the Bucks, like

528
00:25:49.640 --> 00:25:53.119
<v Speaker 5>to comment on the execution of his team, and he

529
00:25:53.160 --> 00:25:55.359
<v Speaker 5>said he was all for it. And we had a

530
00:25:55.480 --> 00:25:59.559
<v Speaker 5>guy today earlier that was talking about blowing it all up.

531
00:26:00.720 --> 00:26:03.039
<v Speaker 5>Where where do we go from? What is the fix here?

532
00:26:03.119 --> 00:26:06.000
<v Speaker 5>We we throw it all away and start over or.

533
00:26:08.359 --> 00:26:10.240
<v Speaker 16>You know, that's a that's a tough one because I

534
00:26:10.279 --> 00:26:13.240
<v Speaker 16>don't think that. I don't believe that there's just a

535
00:26:13.319 --> 00:26:15.960
<v Speaker 16>bunch of bad coaches on this team. So I don't

536
00:26:15.960 --> 00:26:17.559
<v Speaker 16>believe that at all. I think the matter. I think

537
00:26:17.559 --> 00:26:19.960
<v Speaker 16>it's the opposite. I think there's some really quality coaches

538
00:26:20.000 --> 00:26:25.759
<v Speaker 16>on the team. But I do think that, you know,

539
00:26:25.839 --> 00:26:28.960
<v Speaker 16>the lack of experience on the offense and the offensive

540
00:26:30.200 --> 00:26:32.640
<v Speaker 16>play calling that in that situation, I think that that's

541
00:26:32.960 --> 00:26:35.119
<v Speaker 16>an area that you know, at this point, we just

542
00:26:35.160 --> 00:26:36.920
<v Speaker 16>got to call it what it is, and it just

543
00:26:37.000 --> 00:26:39.160
<v Speaker 16>hasn't been very good. It has been very effective, and

544
00:26:39.359 --> 00:26:42.759
<v Speaker 16>so they're going to have to really re evaluate that

545
00:26:43.920 --> 00:26:46.799
<v Speaker 16>and and they're going to have to get it fixed quickly,

546
00:26:47.480 --> 00:26:49.000
<v Speaker 16>and they're going to have to you know, come up

547
00:26:49.039 --> 00:26:51.480
<v Speaker 16>with a system where you know, the kids can be

548
00:26:51.640 --> 00:26:54.640
<v Speaker 16>very confident in it, the fans, everyone else can feel

549
00:26:54.640 --> 00:26:58.079
<v Speaker 16>confident about what they're seeing there, and if anybody says

550
00:26:58.119 --> 00:27:00.880
<v Speaker 16>anything different, then they're just you know, they're blown smoke

551
00:27:00.960 --> 00:27:04.240
<v Speaker 16>up their own rear. That that has to get fixed immediately.

552
00:27:04.279 --> 00:27:07.640
<v Speaker 16>And I'm not saying anything that you know, anybody in

553
00:27:07.720 --> 00:27:12.160
<v Speaker 16>the staff, for anybody else doesn't know. So that's that's

554
00:27:12.200 --> 00:27:15.559
<v Speaker 16>the area where I'm just really Yeah, it's been hard

555
00:27:15.559 --> 00:27:18.039
<v Speaker 16>to watch. It's really hard to watch, you know. I

556
00:27:18.160 --> 00:27:20.240
<v Speaker 16>was giving it. I gave it a lot of you know,

557
00:27:20.440 --> 00:27:22.480
<v Speaker 16>a lot of thought early on and watched it and

558
00:27:23.519 --> 00:27:25.519
<v Speaker 16>early on it just thinking okay, you just need they're

559
00:27:25.519 --> 00:27:27.319
<v Speaker 16>getting close to getting get close to getting close. But

560
00:27:27.359 --> 00:27:29.000
<v Speaker 16>then you finally you get to a point to where

561
00:27:29.000 --> 00:27:32.119
<v Speaker 16>it's like, okay, now I'm starting to just see a

562
00:27:32.119 --> 00:27:34.480
<v Speaker 16>little bit of redundancy and and it doesn't look like

563
00:27:34.519 --> 00:27:38.000
<v Speaker 16>they're getting close to anymore. So yeah, I'm concerned.

564
00:27:37.680 --> 00:27:38.920
<v Speaker 3>About that, right, no question.

565
00:27:39.119 --> 00:27:41.240
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that's my thing, and I don't I don't

566
00:27:41.279 --> 00:27:43.079
<v Speaker 2>know this because I don't trouble with the team or

567
00:27:43.160 --> 00:27:45.640
<v Speaker 2>watch as close as as you guys. Uh, just I'm

568
00:27:45.759 --> 00:27:49.640
<v Speaker 2>with basketball. So my problem is that they're getting beat

569
00:27:49.799 --> 00:27:52.160
<v Speaker 2>by a lot and it and it must be miserable.

570
00:27:52.200 --> 00:27:54.039
<v Speaker 2>You're there, you're there, and you have to sit through

571
00:27:54.079 --> 00:27:56.559
<v Speaker 2>the three and a half hours because it's it starts

572
00:27:56.599 --> 00:27:58.960
<v Speaker 2>early and it continues and continues, and.

573
00:27:59.039 --> 00:28:00.799
<v Speaker 3>You know, what are you going to say? But you know,

574
00:28:00.920 --> 00:28:04.000
<v Speaker 3>do your job obviously, and it's like, you know, the

575
00:28:04.079 --> 00:28:06.119
<v Speaker 3>first time is a mistake, and second times I have it.

576
00:28:06.240 --> 00:28:09.279
<v Speaker 3>Third time, well we've got something. Fourth time, oh crap,

577
00:28:09.359 --> 00:28:09.839
<v Speaker 3>what the hell?

578
00:28:10.400 --> 00:28:10.599
<v Speaker 6>Yeah?

579
00:28:12.160 --> 00:28:13.319
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and and and a lot of.

580
00:28:13.359 --> 00:28:16.599
<v Speaker 16>You know, we can we can always say it's execution,

581
00:28:16.839 --> 00:28:20.359
<v Speaker 16>but it's you know, it's it's also putting your players

582
00:28:20.400 --> 00:28:23.279
<v Speaker 16>in position to execute and giving them a system that

583
00:28:23.359 --> 00:28:26.240
<v Speaker 16>they can execute and that they can you know, it

584
00:28:26.319 --> 00:28:28.720
<v Speaker 16>doesn't you don't have to be one thousand percent perfect

585
00:28:29.119 --> 00:28:30.960
<v Speaker 16>to run a play. I mean you should be able

586
00:28:31.039 --> 00:28:33.759
<v Speaker 16>to find some holes in the defense and be able

587
00:28:33.799 --> 00:28:35.720
<v Speaker 16>to attack those holes when they when they should, you know,

588
00:28:35.759 --> 00:28:38.359
<v Speaker 16>when they present themselves. And those are the things that

589
00:28:38.440 --> 00:28:41.519
<v Speaker 16>are just you know, it's that's what's been difficult for me.

590
00:28:41.599 --> 00:28:44.079
<v Speaker 16>To watch because I'm seeing things that I'm like, I

591
00:28:44.119 --> 00:28:46.480
<v Speaker 16>think we're missing it here and and i've you know,

592
00:28:46.599 --> 00:28:49.079
<v Speaker 16>I've said it, you know, in the air, and I

593
00:28:49.240 --> 00:28:51.559
<v Speaker 16>just that's that those are the things that got to

594
00:28:51.599 --> 00:28:54.079
<v Speaker 16>be fixed. Man, there's I'm not going to go way

595
00:28:54.160 --> 00:28:57.240
<v Speaker 16>into detailed club out want to be you know, beaten

596
00:28:57.319 --> 00:29:00.200
<v Speaker 16>on on a dead horse and then trying to sort

597
00:29:00.200 --> 00:29:03.000
<v Speaker 16>don't want to disparage you know, guys that this is

598
00:29:03.079 --> 00:29:06.079
<v Speaker 16>their career. And and I promise you you will never

599
00:29:06.200 --> 00:29:09.039
<v Speaker 16>hear me, I don't care how bad things get, You'll

600
00:29:09.119 --> 00:29:12.480
<v Speaker 16>never hear me call for a coach's job. I just

601
00:29:12.559 --> 00:29:15.559
<v Speaker 16>refuse to do that because if anybody was calling for

602
00:29:15.640 --> 00:29:17.359
<v Speaker 16>my job, I don't think I would enjoy that. So

603
00:29:17.480 --> 00:29:20.119
<v Speaker 16>that I'll let other people do that. That's not something

604
00:29:20.160 --> 00:29:20.799
<v Speaker 16>that I'm going to do.

605
00:29:21.440 --> 00:29:22.279
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, man, I.

606
00:29:22.319 --> 00:29:25.000
<v Speaker 3>Agree with that. I agree with that, Lamar. I mean,

607
00:29:25.799 --> 00:29:28.000
<v Speaker 3>let the people who are in charge of making that

608
00:29:28.119 --> 00:29:31.799
<v Speaker 3>decision make that decision. Well, you guys have been athletes, Aluma,

609
00:29:31.839 --> 00:29:33.359
<v Speaker 3>You've been an athlete for a long time most of

610
00:29:33.400 --> 00:29:36.839
<v Speaker 3>your life. I've said this in the recent few weeks.

611
00:29:36.880 --> 00:29:39.039
<v Speaker 2>Now, just to me, it feels like there's a disconnect,

612
00:29:39.160 --> 00:29:41.480
<v Speaker 2>right and maybe I said this last time you're on

613
00:29:42.279 --> 00:29:45.160
<v Speaker 2>you're playing, and now you've played for a number of coaches.

614
00:29:45.480 --> 00:29:46.720
<v Speaker 3>So this is my example.

615
00:29:47.519 --> 00:29:51.640
<v Speaker 2>You're here, your coach leaves, you love it here, you

616
00:29:51.880 --> 00:29:54.839
<v Speaker 2>stay here, and he's not your guy, and he's got

617
00:29:54.880 --> 00:29:58.079
<v Speaker 2>a different approach than the previous guy. And you say, Okay,

618
00:29:58.200 --> 00:30:00.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna try. I'm gonna try. I'm gonna to buy

619
00:30:00.440 --> 00:30:02.599
<v Speaker 2>in for this. And then you say, I don't know

620
00:30:02.640 --> 00:30:04.400
<v Speaker 2>if I can buy in for this, and and and

621
00:30:04.519 --> 00:30:06.359
<v Speaker 2>we're all humans. We have a bias, right, we have

622
00:30:06.440 --> 00:30:08.440
<v Speaker 2>a bias. We have some kind of inside us that

623
00:30:08.519 --> 00:30:10.519
<v Speaker 2>you're either all in or you're not, or you're kind

624
00:30:10.559 --> 00:30:13.359
<v Speaker 2>of in, you're and and to me, there's something there.

625
00:30:13.559 --> 00:30:15.319
<v Speaker 3>I couldn't put a finger on it, but to me,

626
00:30:15.440 --> 00:30:16.200
<v Speaker 3>that's how it feels.

627
00:30:17.880 --> 00:30:19.960
<v Speaker 16>Yeah, And I could, I could, I could, I could

628
00:30:19.960 --> 00:30:23.400
<v Speaker 16>see that. And like I said, it's it's more than

629
00:30:23.480 --> 00:30:27.160
<v Speaker 16>one thing. Yeah, I mean right, we we discussed, you

630
00:30:27.200 --> 00:30:29.480
<v Speaker 16>know earlier that to me, it's almost kind of a

631
00:30:29.559 --> 00:30:32.720
<v Speaker 16>perfect storm of bat that stuff hitting all at once,

632
00:30:32.799 --> 00:30:35.079
<v Speaker 16>and it just the results is are what we see.

633
00:30:35.119 --> 00:30:37.559
<v Speaker 16>What we're seeing. But I think that you know, losing

634
00:30:38.119 --> 00:30:40.720
<v Speaker 16>the guys that they lost going into see them starting there.

635
00:30:41.640 --> 00:30:43.839
<v Speaker 16>You know, you gotta get off of to tackle the

636
00:30:43.960 --> 00:30:45.720
<v Speaker 16>starting for the Green Bay Packers right now, You've got

637
00:30:45.799 --> 00:30:47.400
<v Speaker 16>to tide end plane in the NFL. You got Jacob

638
00:30:47.519 --> 00:30:50.799
<v Speaker 16>Cowing playing in the NFL. Those guys are playing effectively too,

639
00:30:51.119 --> 00:30:54.000
<v Speaker 16>So you take that out right away. Then you replace

640
00:30:54.960 --> 00:30:57.839
<v Speaker 16>that tackle with a red shirt freshman that we have started.

641
00:30:58.079 --> 00:31:00.640
<v Speaker 16>That rich re freshman blew his knee up games ago.

642
00:31:01.000 --> 00:31:04.119
<v Speaker 16>So now you now you're really deep in a deep

643
00:31:04.200 --> 00:31:06.920
<v Speaker 16>hole there. Then you you factor in the fact that

644
00:31:07.000 --> 00:31:09.519
<v Speaker 16>there's a brand new system that they have to learn.

645
00:31:09.640 --> 00:31:13.480
<v Speaker 16>This team has to learn new and they've you know,

646
00:31:13.759 --> 00:31:16.079
<v Speaker 16>they've it's it's been a struggle for them to learn it.

647
00:31:17.119 --> 00:31:20.240
<v Speaker 16>And so the new system, the loss of players, and

648
00:31:20.240 --> 00:31:22.640
<v Speaker 16>then we're not even talking about the players that Jetfish.

649
00:31:22.279 --> 00:31:26.039
<v Speaker 3>Took with them to Washington. This is a new team, no.

650
00:31:26.119 --> 00:31:28.519
<v Speaker 16>Matter what anybody says, Yes they have tac, yes they

651
00:31:28.559 --> 00:31:31.559
<v Speaker 16>have you know, some good players back, but it's still

652
00:31:31.559 --> 00:31:34.119
<v Speaker 16>a new team and in this new team with a

653
00:31:34.200 --> 00:31:36.759
<v Speaker 16>new staff. And so those are factors that I don't

654
00:31:36.799 --> 00:31:38.880
<v Speaker 16>think you can just overlook and just push aside. Like

655
00:31:39.480 --> 00:31:41.880
<v Speaker 16>you know, you have to give a coach a chance

656
00:31:42.000 --> 00:31:45.279
<v Speaker 16>to to recruit to his system and then to do

657
00:31:45.359 --> 00:31:46.839
<v Speaker 16>what he wants to do. Now, if that doesn't work,

658
00:31:47.440 --> 00:31:50.240
<v Speaker 16>then you know, then then you know we go from there.

659
00:31:50.799 --> 00:31:53.960
<v Speaker 16>But I do think that there are still things outside

660
00:31:54.000 --> 00:31:56.960
<v Speaker 16>of those circumstances, like you know, the rash of injuries.

661
00:31:57.759 --> 00:32:00.000
<v Speaker 16>But I think there's some things systemically that I would

662
00:32:00.160 --> 00:32:02.640
<v Speaker 16>to see differently, particularly on off the side of the ball.

663
00:32:02.960 --> 00:32:06.799
<v Speaker 16>That's that's just that's me. That's where I'm at right now.

664
00:32:06.960 --> 00:32:09.799
<v Speaker 3>So, so you mentioned a couple of times the word system.

665
00:32:10.240 --> 00:32:10.759
<v Speaker 5>The uh.

666
00:32:12.519 --> 00:32:14.400
<v Speaker 3>Is Brendan a system coach?

667
00:32:15.319 --> 00:32:18.640
<v Speaker 5>In light he he he's got to get players that

668
00:32:18.759 --> 00:32:20.880
<v Speaker 5>fit his system or see the guy that's going to

669
00:32:21.400 --> 00:32:24.000
<v Speaker 5>be able to adjust his system to the players. Because

670
00:32:24.000 --> 00:32:27.559
<v Speaker 5>it seems to me that we were running a certain

671
00:32:27.640 --> 00:32:31.200
<v Speaker 5>type of offense that may not fit exactly what we've got.

672
00:32:32.759 --> 00:32:34.720
<v Speaker 16>That's fair, but that's fair. I don't want to say,

673
00:32:34.720 --> 00:32:39.920
<v Speaker 16>I don't want to, yeah, hold him into that.

674
00:32:40.519 --> 00:32:42.839
<v Speaker 3>I guess it's a bit of an question what's happening?

675
00:32:43.160 --> 00:32:45.279
<v Speaker 16>Yeah, Yeah, I think that a lot of that is

676
00:32:45.319 --> 00:32:48.119
<v Speaker 16>what is happening. I would a percent agree there. I

677
00:32:48.200 --> 00:32:50.880
<v Speaker 16>think they really want to be like a power downhill

678
00:32:50.960 --> 00:32:54.119
<v Speaker 16>running team, and it's just it's just not there. That's

679
00:32:54.200 --> 00:32:57.200
<v Speaker 16>not there, and and I think that they've tried to

680
00:32:57.319 --> 00:33:00.240
<v Speaker 16>really push that and force that issue because in into

681
00:33:00.319 --> 00:33:02.599
<v Speaker 16>his defense, they did do that at Central the State

682
00:33:02.640 --> 00:33:05.680
<v Speaker 16>and he did it pretty successful there. So I mean, naturally,

683
00:33:05.759 --> 00:33:08.000
<v Speaker 16>you're going to go with what you know, what you know,

684
00:33:08.839 --> 00:33:12.160
<v Speaker 16>and he just is not working. So you got to

685
00:33:12.240 --> 00:33:14.200
<v Speaker 16>recalculate and you got to figure out, you know, what

686
00:33:14.240 --> 00:33:16.160
<v Speaker 16>you're gotta do, and you gotta do it fast because

687
00:33:16.720 --> 00:33:18.359
<v Speaker 16>you know, you only got so long, you know, to

688
00:33:18.400 --> 00:33:21.279
<v Speaker 16>get it right. So that's what I'm I'm hopeful that

689
00:33:21.359 --> 00:33:23.960
<v Speaker 16>I'm you know, I'm rude for him like nobody's business,

690
00:33:23.960 --> 00:33:27.279
<v Speaker 16>because I think he's a tremendous person. I think I

691
00:33:27.640 --> 00:33:29.839
<v Speaker 16>respect him as a coach too. I'm'm not in here

692
00:33:30.480 --> 00:33:32.480
<v Speaker 16>to do the coach. When the guy's had success in

693
00:33:32.559 --> 00:33:33.720
<v Speaker 16>his career, he can coach.

694
00:33:34.319 --> 00:33:36.640
<v Speaker 3>But you know, yeah, that's that's everybody.

695
00:33:36.720 --> 00:33:39.000
<v Speaker 15>We don't get it right all the time. We didn't

696
00:33:39.200 --> 00:33:39.359
<v Speaker 15>get it.

697
00:33:39.400 --> 00:33:42.000
<v Speaker 3>We did to bring in somebody that was not successful.

698
00:33:43.240 --> 00:33:46.279
<v Speaker 16>Yeah, you know exactly. You got to get some things right,

699
00:33:46.359 --> 00:33:47.839
<v Speaker 16>and they got to do it quickly. And it's probably

700
00:33:47.880 --> 00:33:49.319
<v Speaker 16>going to have to be a lot of transfer portal

701
00:33:49.680 --> 00:33:53.119
<v Speaker 16>hopefully they don't have too much turnover in the process.

702
00:33:53.200 --> 00:33:55.400
<v Speaker 16>But you know that's part of the game too. You've

703
00:33:55.440 --> 00:33:57.839
<v Speaker 16>got to figure it out. And and I can say

704
00:33:57.960 --> 00:34:01.359
<v Speaker 16>what's happened this season is not making that easier. So

705
00:34:02.039 --> 00:34:04.400
<v Speaker 16>that's that's kind of that's where it's at right now. Well,

706
00:34:04.799 --> 00:34:08.400
<v Speaker 16>it's like it's it's it's you know, may day. Right now,

707
00:34:08.440 --> 00:34:09.199
<v Speaker 16>they got to get fixed.

708
00:34:09.440 --> 00:34:11.599
<v Speaker 2>Well, last question, the last question, and you brought this

709
00:34:11.760 --> 00:34:14.360
<v Speaker 2>up at the beginning, how much you loved the kid

710
00:34:14.440 --> 00:34:16.119
<v Speaker 2>from New Mexico, the running back, that he was a

711
00:34:16.159 --> 00:34:21.039
<v Speaker 2>special kid. And obviously that that ended quickly for whatever reason,

712
00:34:21.079 --> 00:34:23.840
<v Speaker 2>because we still haven't got an explanation that and then

713
00:34:23.960 --> 00:34:26.280
<v Speaker 2>the rest of the injuries and everything. The perfect storm

714
00:34:26.360 --> 00:34:29.320
<v Speaker 2>is exactly that's the title of the book. Uh, that's

715
00:34:29.320 --> 00:34:31.800
<v Speaker 2>it's the perfect right and the thing is the one

716
00:34:31.840 --> 00:34:34.679
<v Speaker 2>thing is over the weekend, I heard this from somebody

717
00:34:34.719 --> 00:34:37.360
<v Speaker 2>that coaches are problem solvers. That's what they' that's what

718
00:34:37.440 --> 00:34:40.599
<v Speaker 2>they do. Let's supposh to do. And so the perfect storm.

719
00:34:40.639 --> 00:34:41.880
<v Speaker 2>Now you've got to find a way how to get

720
00:34:41.920 --> 00:34:43.000
<v Speaker 2>out of this perfect storm.

721
00:34:44.199 --> 00:34:44.480
<v Speaker 15>That's it.

722
00:34:45.079 --> 00:34:47.119
<v Speaker 16>I mean Jed had this in his first year. He

723
00:34:47.239 --> 00:34:50.199
<v Speaker 16>inherited a really bad situation. It took them, It took

724
00:34:50.280 --> 00:34:52.239
<v Speaker 16>them three years to get out of it, and so

725
00:34:52.679 --> 00:34:54.840
<v Speaker 16>you know how long The question is, how long will

726
00:34:54.880 --> 00:34:57.000
<v Speaker 16>it take these guys to turn it around? And if

727
00:34:57.000 --> 00:34:59.119
<v Speaker 16>you and the hard part about it is when you're

728
00:34:59.199 --> 00:35:00.679
<v Speaker 16>navigating it, you got the fans.

729
00:35:01.360 --> 00:35:02.679
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, they want to win now.

730
00:35:02.880 --> 00:35:05.440
<v Speaker 16>Sure, they want to win now. And they have a

731
00:35:05.519 --> 00:35:09.119
<v Speaker 16>say too because they buy tickets. Yeah, and depend on that,

732
00:35:09.400 --> 00:35:11.719
<v Speaker 16>and you got boosters and depend on that. So it

733
00:35:12.000 --> 00:35:13.679
<v Speaker 16>you know, it's got to happen quickly. And so this

734
00:35:14.519 --> 00:35:16.360
<v Speaker 16>is a tough job man to navigate, right.

735
00:35:16.800 --> 00:35:20.159
<v Speaker 2>You got to figured out la is always a van, yeah,

736
00:35:20.400 --> 00:35:23.320
<v Speaker 2>Laman is always Thanks for joining us on Monday to revaluate.

737
00:35:23.400 --> 00:35:25.639
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, appreciate that, Lamon. I love your insights.

738
00:35:25.679 --> 00:35:25.840

853
00:40:33.599 --> 00:40:35.320
<v Speaker 15>Well, where.

854
00:40:37.199 --> 00:40:42.760
<v Speaker 5>I've gone two weeks without listening to coaches press conferences

855
00:40:45.199 --> 00:40:48.360
<v Speaker 5>and you know what it's you know, people are people

856
00:40:48.400 --> 00:40:51.000
<v Speaker 5>are gonna probably be asking him questions he doesn't want

857
00:40:51.000 --> 00:40:54.840
<v Speaker 5>to answer at this point. Hopefully he has the answers

858
00:40:56.559 --> 00:40:59.039
<v Speaker 5>as as as far as what he's going to do

859
00:40:59.440 --> 00:41:04.920
<v Speaker 5>to correct what's going on. I don't want him fired.

860
00:41:04.920 --> 00:41:07.119
<v Speaker 5>I like what what Lamont just said.

861
00:41:07.199 --> 00:41:10.960
<v Speaker 15>You know, It's like if somebody was saying that I

862
00:41:11.000 --> 00:41:14.639
<v Speaker 15>shouldn't have my job, I sure wouldn't like that, especially

863
00:41:14.679 --> 00:41:18.000
<v Speaker 15>if I'm you know, I'm working hard and I'm trying

864
00:41:18.039 --> 00:41:18.639
<v Speaker 15>to get it done.

865
00:41:19.280 --> 00:41:21.840
<v Speaker 3>Do you think he can quote unquote fix things this

866
00:41:22.039 --> 00:41:23.880
<v Speaker 3>year or is fixing?

867
00:41:24.119 --> 00:41:30.039
<v Speaker 15>I think that I think this year is is what

868
00:41:30.199 --> 00:41:30.519
<v Speaker 15>it is.

869
00:41:32.119 --> 00:41:32.639
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

870
00:41:33.480 --> 00:41:36.840
<v Speaker 15>I mean, for me, the Bowl game is going to

871
00:41:36.840 --> 00:41:40.719
<v Speaker 15>be the Territorial Cup, and if he can fix things

872
00:41:40.800 --> 00:41:44.800
<v Speaker 15>for that game, I think that that that will be

873
00:41:44.880 --> 00:41:47.000
<v Speaker 15>good enough for the rest of this year. I mean

874
00:41:47.360 --> 00:41:52.159
<v Speaker 15>that to me honestly because I'm hoping it works with

875
00:41:52.639 --> 00:41:56.320
<v Speaker 15>with Brennan. I really am, because I'm tired of this

876
00:41:56.760 --> 00:42:00.880
<v Speaker 15>three and four year rotation that we've been on since

877
00:42:01.199 --> 00:42:02.039
<v Speaker 15>since Dick told me.

878
00:42:02.760 --> 00:42:06.920
<v Speaker 2>So. Let me ask you, don Rachel's your fandom scale

879
00:42:07.079 --> 00:42:08.440
<v Speaker 2>one ten? Where do you sit?

880
00:42:10.239 --> 00:42:10.519
<v Speaker 3>Okay?

881
00:42:10.679 --> 00:42:14.920
<v Speaker 15>I was born here. I am what a friend of

882
00:42:14.960 --> 00:42:20.119
<v Speaker 15>mine from Tennessee used to say about volunteer fans. I

883
00:42:20.239 --> 00:42:25.440
<v Speaker 15>am what you call non attending alumni. I've been to

884
00:42:25.679 --> 00:42:28.360

885
00:42:28.400 --> 00:42:33.840
<v Speaker 15>any classes there. So I'm an Arizona guy when I

886
00:42:33.920 --> 00:42:35.599
<v Speaker 15>go to when I go out of town, when I

887
00:42:35.679 --> 00:42:39.880
<v Speaker 15>go to Phoenix, when I go to California, I'm whearing

888
00:42:39.920 --> 00:42:43.599
<v Speaker 15>my I'm rock in the A and and that's what

889
00:42:43.760 --> 00:42:46.039
<v Speaker 15>I do on my travel days in and out.

890
00:42:46.079 --> 00:42:47.000
<v Speaker 3>When I'm going to be out.

891
00:42:46.920 --> 00:42:49.639
<v Speaker 15>And about among people, I wear my Arizona stuff.

892
00:42:49.920 --> 00:42:52.960
<v Speaker 2>So when they lose, when they lose, I'm talking football

893
00:42:53.000 --> 00:42:55.159
<v Speaker 2>specific basketball, because it's a different pain.

894
00:42:57.000 --> 00:42:59.639
<v Speaker 3>How do you feel? Are you beat for the day?

895
00:43:00.119 --> 00:43:05.320
<v Speaker 3>You saying? What are you? It depends.

896
00:43:05.559 --> 00:43:10.159
<v Speaker 15>I mean, I was at I was, I was at

897
00:43:10.199 --> 00:43:13.000
<v Speaker 15>the at the West Virginia game. At the end, I said, well,

898
00:43:13.079 --> 00:43:16.159
<v Speaker 15>but you know they showed fight. You know they showed

899
00:43:16.280 --> 00:43:20.440
<v Speaker 15>some fight. It's I think what what Lament was saying

900
00:43:20.480 --> 00:43:23.239
<v Speaker 15>about the offensive system. And they want to be ah,

901
00:43:23.920 --> 00:43:27.119
<v Speaker 15>they want to be a power running team, but you

902
00:43:27.199 --> 00:43:29.320
<v Speaker 15>don't have that. I don't know why you continue to

903
00:43:29.400 --> 00:43:33.360
<v Speaker 15>call those plays unless you're gonna let the freshman, big

904
00:43:33.599 --> 00:43:35.880
<v Speaker 15>big Red Caden Luke run the ball. He's the only

905
00:43:35.920 --> 00:43:37.679
<v Speaker 15>one strong enough to run the ball the way they

906
00:43:37.719 --> 00:43:40.599
<v Speaker 15>want to run it. Right, yea, and he and and

907
00:43:40.760 --> 00:43:44.599
<v Speaker 15>he led the state in rushing last year, so I mean,

908
00:43:44.679 --> 00:43:48.360
<v Speaker 15>why not give that kid a chance? But it's games

909
00:43:48.519 --> 00:43:51.360
<v Speaker 15>like games like Saturday was so.

910
00:43:51.559 --> 00:43:54.440
<v Speaker 3>Hard to watch. Did you did you watch it all?

911
00:43:55.760 --> 00:43:55.800
<v Speaker 2>No?

912
00:43:56.079 --> 00:44:00.400
<v Speaker 15>Not all of it? Heck no, I was right, Yes,

913
00:44:00.880 --> 00:44:03.320
<v Speaker 15>I watched. I watched it in the first half and

914
00:44:03.440 --> 00:44:05.599
<v Speaker 15>I was hoping they'd turn it around, and then they

915
00:44:05.639 --> 00:44:09.159
<v Speaker 15>gave away that chip, that cheapy touchdown right at the

916
00:44:09.280 --> 00:44:12.840
<v Speaker 15>end of the half, and then that was it. I

917
00:44:13.079 --> 00:44:15.599
<v Speaker 15>was just like, well, whatever the final score is, we'll

918
00:44:15.920 --> 00:44:23.239
<v Speaker 15>we'll find that out later. I certainly don't want I was,

919
00:44:23.440 --> 00:44:28.119
<v Speaker 15>you know, when I look back at Brennan's records his

920
00:44:28.239 --> 00:44:31.639
<v Speaker 15>last three years, three or four years at San Jose State,

921
00:44:31.800 --> 00:44:35.480
<v Speaker 15>six and seven wins. That's eight or nine wins at Arizona,

922
00:44:36.800 --> 00:44:41.360
<v Speaker 15>And to me, that's good enough, because every once in

923
00:44:41.440 --> 00:44:44.159
<v Speaker 15>a while you're going to luck your way into a

924
00:44:44.320 --> 00:44:47.920
<v Speaker 15>ten and three season. And I think I think one

925
00:44:48.000 --> 00:44:51.800
<v Speaker 15>thing that we've all forgotten is that Jed Fish lucked

926
00:44:51.880 --> 00:44:54.920
<v Speaker 15>his way into that ten and three season last year

927
00:44:56.119 --> 00:44:59.840
<v Speaker 15>because if Jaden DeLaura doesn't get hurt, that's a seven

928
00:45:00.079 --> 00:45:03.320
<v Speaker 15>in team. Yeah, and they were playing their bus off

929
00:45:04.079 --> 00:45:07.519
<v Speaker 15>but Laura. But DeLaura would have lost us three games

930
00:45:07.719 --> 00:45:10.840
<v Speaker 15>just by like he did against Mississippi State, running a

931
00:45:10.920 --> 00:45:15.840
<v Speaker 15>quarterback sneak and not telling nobody, and his run and

932
00:45:15.920 --> 00:45:18.199
<v Speaker 15>the way he would run around and throw the ball

933
00:45:18.360 --> 00:45:20.719
<v Speaker 15>the way to feed us having to do this year,

934
00:45:21.639 --> 00:45:24.079
<v Speaker 15>that was. That was Jaden de Laura. They said, look,

935
00:45:24.119 --> 00:45:27.119
<v Speaker 15>de Laura completed more passes of that nature.

936
00:45:28.599 --> 00:45:31.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we'll see. My opinion, yeah, we'll see if it

937
00:45:31.440 --> 00:45:34.119
<v Speaker 2>gets better. I think more fans in my opinion, I

938
00:45:34.199 --> 00:45:36.320
<v Speaker 2>think I think a lot of fans are like you.

939
00:45:36.960 --> 00:45:39.719
<v Speaker 2>They're involved, but you know it's and they want to

940
00:45:40.559 --> 00:45:44.400
<v Speaker 2>espressially frustrations, get it out. They talk to friends whatever,

941
00:45:44.480 --> 00:45:46.400
<v Speaker 2>get on the internet yet, call in the shows.

942
00:45:47.000 --> 00:45:48.480
<v Speaker 3>But they're not. You know, they're not gonna do You're

943
00:45:48.519 --> 00:45:50.880
<v Speaker 3>not dying over this. You're not. You're not like, oh God,

944
00:45:51.000 --> 00:45:52.360
<v Speaker 3>you've got to do something about it.

945
00:45:53.360 --> 00:45:56.400
<v Speaker 15>I'm not dying over this. What makes me angry is

946
00:45:56.519 --> 00:45:59.519
<v Speaker 15>all the talk on the internet. We need to get

947
00:45:59.599 --> 00:46:04.400
<v Speaker 15>the high young offensive coordinator. Well that's just great, except

948
00:46:04.440 --> 00:46:06.840
<v Speaker 15>for in three years he's gonna pull a jed fish

949
00:46:06.920 --> 00:46:10.679
<v Speaker 15>and go to another job exact you know, And I'm tired.

950
00:46:10.760 --> 00:46:13.960
<v Speaker 15>I'm tired, of that merry go round. I'm really tired.

951
00:46:14.079 --> 00:46:16.840
<v Speaker 15>I would like to find a guy that wants to

952
00:46:16.960 --> 00:46:20.960
<v Speaker 15>be in Tucsons that five million dollars a year is enough,

953
00:46:21.559 --> 00:46:25.239
<v Speaker 15>that has the support of the school and the community,

954
00:46:25.760 --> 00:46:29.800
<v Speaker 15>and to be able to pay a few key assistants

955
00:46:30.880 --> 00:46:34.480
<v Speaker 15>to make up I want. I want Kyle Whittingham, That's

956
00:46:34.519 --> 00:46:35.119
<v Speaker 15>what I want.

957
00:46:36.760 --> 00:46:38.400
<v Speaker 3>I want a guy that had that can.

958
00:46:38.360 --> 00:46:42.679
<v Speaker 15>Run a program that fits the school, that fits the school,

959
00:46:42.760 --> 00:46:44.760
<v Speaker 15>that doesn't want to go anywhere that he's fine where

960
00:46:44.760 --> 00:46:45.119
<v Speaker 15>he's at.

961
00:46:45.400 --> 00:46:47.360
<v Speaker 3>Well, you have that guy. He's here, he's just not

962
00:46:47.480 --> 00:46:50.440
<v Speaker 3>doing well. Well, he's not doing well.

963
00:46:50.280 --> 00:46:53.519
<v Speaker 15>Because he's in his first year. Like I said last week,

964
00:46:54.000 --> 00:46:56.760
<v Speaker 15>we don't know what we lost with the guys we lost.

965
00:46:57.239 --> 00:46:59.119
<v Speaker 15>We don't know which one of those guys was a

966
00:46:59.199 --> 00:47:02.199
<v Speaker 15>Kelvin Ephan that was a heartbeat of that team that

967
00:47:02.559 --> 00:47:05.239
<v Speaker 15>all of a sudden, we don't we're you know, we're

968
00:47:05.320 --> 00:47:08.880
<v Speaker 15>sailing through the season without a rudder, and it seems

969
00:47:08.960 --> 00:47:12.320
<v Speaker 15>like it's you know, we don't know who was that guy,

970
00:47:12.880 --> 00:47:15.199
<v Speaker 15>and we didn't know that that's what we were going

971
00:47:15.239 --> 00:47:16.800
<v Speaker 15>to lose when we lost those guys.

972
00:47:17.480 --> 00:47:19.119
<v Speaker 3>Right, Well, you got I think you said, I think

973
00:47:19.159 --> 00:47:22.239
<v Speaker 3>you said this at the beginning, you looked into the year, Well,

974
00:47:22.239 --> 00:47:25.159
<v Speaker 3>guess sometimes we're gonna get God, the gods, the football

975
00:47:25.199 --> 00:47:27.360
<v Speaker 3>God said we're going to give you a year. This

976
00:47:27.559 --> 00:47:30.400
<v Speaker 3>is your year, but remembered who you are. We're gonna

977
00:47:30.440 --> 00:47:32.320
<v Speaker 3>go back to what you were because we're.

978
00:47:32.159 --> 00:47:36.079
<v Speaker 15>Giving you this year exactly. And I think you know,

979
00:47:36.320 --> 00:47:38.639
<v Speaker 15>and I think in a lot of ways last year,

980
00:47:39.679 --> 00:47:45.800
<v Speaker 15>Jacob Cowing was number one. Jacob Cowing was a lot

981
00:47:45.920 --> 00:47:48.719
<v Speaker 15>of times last year you needed, you needed a catch,

982
00:47:49.239 --> 00:47:51.719
<v Speaker 15>and that was the guy that made it. He was

983
00:47:51.800 --> 00:47:55.079
<v Speaker 15>the one that made that, got the touchdown play in

984
00:47:55.239 --> 00:47:58.840
<v Speaker 15>the in the in the olimible that got Arizona back

985
00:47:58.960 --> 00:47:59.559
<v Speaker 15>rolling again.

986
00:47:59.800 --> 00:48:00.639
<v Speaker 3>He was the guy.

987
00:48:02.039 --> 00:48:04.320
<v Speaker 15>Everybody wants to say t Mac because well he's the

988
00:48:04.400 --> 00:48:08.119
<v Speaker 15>prototypical but the guy, the guy I think was was

989
00:48:08.280 --> 00:48:14.079
<v Speaker 15>Jacob Cowing. Okay, you know t Mac has the bigger

990
00:48:14.159 --> 00:48:17.519
<v Speaker 15>upside and nobody's going to deny that, But that season,

991
00:48:17.599 --> 00:48:22.039
<v Speaker 15>the guy was Cowing. In my opinion, there's a lot

992
00:48:22.119 --> 00:48:25.079
<v Speaker 15>of guys out there, Coleman and Coleman. If we if

993
00:48:25.119 --> 00:48:27.400
<v Speaker 15>we'd have been able to keep Coleman, we'd be able

994
00:48:27.440 --> 00:48:29.599
<v Speaker 15>to run the ball the way that the way they're

995
00:48:29.639 --> 00:48:33.000
<v Speaker 15>calling the plays. I think because Coleman's bell cow for sure,

996
00:48:33.639 --> 00:48:38.480
<v Speaker 15>and these other guys, you know, Kuali Connley, he should

997
00:48:38.519 --> 00:48:40.719
<v Speaker 15>not have a helmet anywhere near him in the first

998
00:48:40.800 --> 00:48:45.559
<v Speaker 15>quarter in my opinion now, because it's just it just

999
00:48:45.760 --> 00:48:49.199
<v Speaker 15>looks like he's like like like he's quitting and then

1000
00:48:49.239 --> 00:48:50.480
<v Speaker 15>he's working his way back.

1001
00:48:50.360 --> 00:48:51.079
<v Speaker 3>The rest of the game.

1002
00:48:51.800 --> 00:48:53.840
<v Speaker 15>And I hate to say that about the kid, but

1003
00:48:54.079 --> 00:48:57.840
<v Speaker 15>you know what, in this day and age, I'll bets

1004
00:48:57.880 --> 00:49:00.519
<v Speaker 15>are off. Everybody's up for criticism.

1005
00:49:00.960 --> 00:49:02.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, no, no, I agree with you. I've seen your

1006

<v Speaker 5>we gotta, we gotta, we gotta kind of a nothing,

1035
00:50:09.719 --> 00:50:13.079
<v Speaker 5>a bit of a nothing, and then yeah, football is over.

1036
00:50:13.199 --> 00:50:15.960
<v Speaker 5>I mean really, yeah exactly, I mean football's over if

1037
00:50:16.000 --> 00:50:18.599
<v Speaker 5>they do beat the issue that, if they beat SU

1038
00:50:18.679 --> 00:50:19.360
<v Speaker 5>that's gonna be great.

1039
00:50:19.480 --> 00:50:21.159
<v Speaker 3>Nice thing to have to be happy about. That.

1040
00:50:21.400 --> 00:50:24.199
<v Speaker 2>To me, again, this has been the weirdest thing because

1041
00:50:24.239 --> 00:50:27.599
<v Speaker 2>you had all these expectations turned up to expectations. I

1042
00:50:27.679 --> 00:50:30.559
<v Speaker 2>can't remember a basketball season like this where there, you know,

1043
00:50:30.800 --> 00:50:33.000
<v Speaker 2>you had these expectations and they just blamed out.

1044
00:50:33.159 --> 00:50:38.239
<v Speaker 3>I'm sure there's been a few, but because the regular

1045
00:50:38.280 --> 00:50:41.159
<v Speaker 3>season is always okay, yeah, yeah, but we've gone through

1046
00:50:41.199 --> 00:50:43.679
<v Speaker 3>the Pac twelve. I mean it's like, you know, there's

1047
00:50:43.679 --> 00:50:44.519
<v Speaker 3>a lot more mystery.

1048
00:50:44.599 --> 00:50:51.159
<v Speaker 2>I feel like with basketball, yeah, well yeah, and then

1049
00:50:51.159 --> 00:50:54.800
<v Speaker 2>they're going to get well the perfect start, serfect. Then

1050
00:50:54.840 --> 00:50:57.719
<v Speaker 2>one is the Big twelve. We didn't know a new coach,

1051
00:50:58.000 --> 00:51:01.800
<v Speaker 2>didn't know the players. Players, we didn't know, although we

1052
00:51:01.920 --> 00:51:06.320
<v Speaker 2>had the love affair from last year right with these.

1053
00:51:05.800 --> 00:51:08.320
<v Speaker 3>Guys, and we didn't know, but we but we really

1054
00:51:08.400 --> 00:51:12.880
<v Speaker 3>didn't know. And all this perfect storm turned into you know,

1055
00:51:13.079 --> 00:51:15.800
<v Speaker 3>hit the hit the one thing.

1056
00:51:16.239 --> 00:51:18.760
<v Speaker 5>You know, you sit there and you realize that it's

1057
00:51:19.760 --> 00:51:22.400
<v Speaker 5>it's not about last year's players, no, you know, I mean,

1058
00:51:22.480 --> 00:51:24.079
<v Speaker 5>it's it's about next year's players.

1059
00:51:24.280 --> 00:51:24.880
<v Speaker 3>I still think that.

1060
00:51:25.159 --> 00:51:27.960
<v Speaker 2>In my observation from somebody else said, you know, coaches

1061
00:51:28.039 --> 00:51:29.079
<v Speaker 2>are problem solvers.

1062
00:51:30.360 --> 00:51:31.400
<v Speaker 3>This hasn't been solved.

1063
00:51:32.880 --> 00:51:35.599
<v Speaker 5>Sometimes you can't solve the problem if everybody, if everybody

1064
00:51:35.639 --> 00:51:38.039
<v Speaker 5>is a great problem solver, then everyone would be undefeated.

1065
00:51:38.559 --> 00:51:40.320
<v Speaker 2>Well, you can fix some things and make them look

1066
00:51:41.000 --> 00:51:43.960
<v Speaker 2>again again, can't You can't fix fix injuries.

1067
00:51:44.199 --> 00:51:45.880
<v Speaker 3>You can't fix no, but you could play. You can

1068
00:51:45.920 --> 00:51:47.880
<v Speaker 3>play closer to you can play closer. They're not even

1069
00:51:47.920 --> 00:51:51.000
<v Speaker 3>play closer. Well, if you got really bad players. You're

1070
00:51:51.000 --> 00:51:53.559
<v Speaker 3>not can play Kenry. Did you watch a game? Yeah?

1071
00:51:53.760 --> 00:51:58.920
<v Speaker 3>Did they look like they were done in that first quarter?

1072
00:51:59.039 --> 00:52:01.480
<v Speaker 3>I think, yeah, that's when it started. Yeah, that's how

1073
00:52:01.800 --> 00:52:03.760
<v Speaker 3>he started. And then once they got some life, it

1074
00:52:03.880 --> 00:52:06.800
<v Speaker 3>was too late. Yeah. What what was the life? A

1075
00:52:06.920 --> 00:52:10.360
<v Speaker 3>part was the life? I think? I mean they had

1076
00:52:10.360 --> 00:52:13.599
<v Speaker 3>a couple of touchdown drives, which is more than that

1077
00:52:13.800 --> 00:52:16.920
<v Speaker 3>was a defibrillator coming in to save you for a dye.

1078
00:52:17.559 --> 00:52:21.239
<v Speaker 3>But once the once, the I don't you know. I

1079
00:52:21.320 --> 00:52:22.840
<v Speaker 3>think what we gotta do is we gotta start better.

1080
00:52:22.880 --> 00:52:23.719
<v Speaker 3>We gotta go. Thanks.
