Speaker 3: Oh yeah, at eleven forty five, baby, think you no loud?
Speaker 5: No, I was thinking about that, like I guess kind
of like swept under the rug that it's the early
eleven o'clock game, But eleven forty five is weird, right, yeah,
a little bit, didn't. I guess let's use eleven five
kick something like that for the eleven o'clock game.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't remember. I don't remember ever having an
eleven forty five. Yeah, I don't either.
Speaker 5: I don't remember seeing an eleven forty five, whether it's
SEC big ten whatever.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, you know, thanks for the forty five minutes
of extra sleep. I guess not bad Meal will take it.
I don't really know. Well, we didn't. We didn't play
too many of those early ones when we were playing this,
for sure, unless it was the old Jefferson Pilot game.
Speaker 4: Didn't have too many of those. Yeah, or we had
to play two lane at ten am.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, that was brutal our MFW no what is it?
Speaker 4: R m f.
Speaker 3: W yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I love it. Good
for you summer. Yeah, it's a sweet hoodie. That was
a great hoodie. Yeah.

I know that you can TRADEMARKT that like that. I
think you know that you're a business owner. How are
you doing this morning? I'm doing great. I'm doing fantastic.
Another great day to be alive, sir, there's another great day,
except my back's still hurting. Yeah.
Speaker 5: You know, I would think like a couch would have
been pretty comfy on it, but it's not.
Speaker 3: I was thinking, like, you know, it's a little bit
of a harder surface. Maybe this would be good for
your back. No, I don't need the harder surface right
now when you got these like nerves getting all pinched
and stuff. No, so you need like, oh you need
like the beach ball you were talking about.
Speaker 5: Kind of like that or you know, zero gravity chair situation.
Speaker 4: I don't know what that is. Feels expensive. Lace.
Speaker 5: He was thinking about getting me those boots that you
could wear that hook onto a bar and I hang
upside down.
Speaker 4: Like a bat. Look what y'all do at home is
y'all's business. You don't need to bring that here on there. Okay,
got it? That is between you two. Here we go.
Speaker 3: You know, you can go over to the Football Ops
building and they have something very similar to what you're
talking about.
Speaker 4: It's back open. Yes, I'm pretty sure you could have
always gone in there. Yes, I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 3: The quarterback of the National Championship team had an open invite.
Speaker 5: Now, I know when I went to practice, i'd have
a credential that said like guests of somebody, No I did,
how do you call in?
Speaker 4: Not an open door policy.
Speaker 3: Could just say you're delivering my high I would do that.
I'd have to go in like the back the delivery.
Speaker 4: No, they made you go to the delivery entrance.
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's a little delis Nutrition has a little delivery
entrance with a little garage door that pipes open. Have
to call ahead because like you know, the it has
like the fingerprint the fingerprint entry now on the doorway,
and I'd have to like sit there and knock, like
put my face up to the glass so I could
see in. And I was like that just that guy
kind of like looking in picking in Like, hey, friends.
Speaker 3: M imagine not having a fingerprint. That's terrible. Well no, yeah,
no one did unless you worked there. Yeah well yeah,
I mean you were delivering services. I was delivering goods
and service, good and services, keeping them hydrated, keeping the
boys ready. All right, it is an eleven forty five
kick against the Arkansas Razorbacks. Were actually watching as you know,
like when we're here at Projery, James have this gigantic TV.
Speaker 4: We we might have.
Speaker 3: Watched Jordan watch himself break down the Pelicans, but it's okay,
the great breakdown.
Speaker 4: I had a test, he had tested, he had tested pixels.
Speaker 3: Huh and uh, you know we're watching the what what
year is this twenty twenty two, twenty two l s
U Arkansas game. It is dynamic. It is three to
nothing Hogs right now, baby, we could seem Pittman looking great, nay,
looking kind of fit right there. All right, I'll see
none of these coaches that are on the sideline in
twenty twenty two or not employed.
Speaker 5: But I think Elison's got about I think Jordan's pointed
out about one thousand NFL players on the team and
we're down three to nothing and Jane Daniels is playing awful.
I don't know if that guy's got a future. All right,
he had this was anything, This was this was a
rough watch.
Speaker 3: This was the Harold Perkins game where he had the
four sacks and forced fumble and really then he became
a household name after this game.
Speaker 4: Mm hmm. I won't say how they win this one.
They do. It's not great, but they do well.
Speaker 5: Let me ask you, this are the LSU Tigers going
to be Arkansas this weekend.
Speaker 4: Well I don't.
Speaker 3: I don't think Arkansas is going to score six points
in this one. Why they're a little bit better offensively
than that should be the worry because you still haven't
scored you know, over what, twenty five in a game against.
Speaker 5: The Power for we still hadn't got to that market.
No good, so good in North Carolina, I think because
I think you got right at it right, A and M.
You got right at it.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, So Arkansas is going to score points, You're
going to try to keep up with them, and that.
Speaker 3: That's the part that should make you nervous if you're
an LSU fan. What if you know, the defense I
believe is going to hold them, you know whatever under
their season total.
Speaker 4: Maybe, but still is that a number that you can achieve?
Speaker 5: Mm hmm, Well it's it's always a little bit nerve
wracking as a fan base and probably as a team
a little bit when you know that you do have
a good offense coming in, you do have a good
of course your defenses, but like nobody's really been able
to stop the explosiveness of Arkansas's offense. Are they gonna
sit there and grind a fifteen to twenty play drive.
The When I watch Arkansas, it's explosive plays, explosive plays
in the past game. It's not like, you know, two
three yards here, two three yards there, It's like big plays.
So you can if you can cut down the big plays,
then you kind of minimize what they can do offensively.
But on offense, for LSU, you got to do something
you hadn't done all year, which is be consistently good.
Score in the red zone, be good and short yardage.
Have a good game plan, which you.
Speaker 4: Know we have not really had.
Speaker 5: I think I thought our game plan was much better
this past last week against Alabama, just you failed to
secute consistently enough. So I'm going to probably say this
throughout the show this morning. Is as strange as it sounds,
sitting here with four losses. It's yeah, I believe that
this week is a must win for LSU, and for
no other reason. For the sheer fact well, we started
discussing yesterday with the coaching search that is happening right now.
If the slide continues to happen, I think the urgency
on the timing of hiring your coach is going to
speed up tremendously if there's a slide happening. So I
think this is if you want to take your time
and do it the right way with the coaching search,
I believe that this is a must win.
Speaker 4: You got to write the ship.
Speaker 5: You have to keep some sort of positive momentum if
you want Frank Wilson to be able to do what
he does best, and that is lead men. Recruit men,
recruit people that are already on the team, Recruit people
that are on other college teams, recruit people that have
high school jerseys.
Speaker 4: On the week.
Speaker 5: Yeah, if you want him to have some any momentum
which gives him time.
Speaker 4: To do all that you have to you have to win.
Speaker 5: If you continue a slide, I think it picks that
momentum up because it picks that that timetable up for
hiring a coach, Because if you don't have any momentum,
you're you. You're gonna have to do something by hiring
a coach and solidifying that position to maintain the recruits,
because Frank will will lose his power in doing that.
Speaker 4: If you lose, He's always gonna be a good recruiter.
Speaker 5: But like if you got nothing to sell, gotta have
something to sell.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes you do. And uh, look it is certainly
not going your way. You've lost three games in a row.
You've got to stop the bleeding. You have a team
that hasn't won an SEC game yet, So I don't
care how many points are scoring. You got to find
a way to win. You have to have more than
they have. Have they all been blowouts? No, In fact,
Arkansas games have all pretty much been close. It doesn't
matter won an SEC game. Bad teams find a way
to lose games, just like good teams find a way
to win games. Okay, well, you got to find a way.
You haven't been a good team. You got to try
to be one this weekend. This is a must win,
Like you can't lose to a winless Arkansas team.
Speaker 4: You have like your roster.
Speaker 5: It's weird to say must win for a four lost
team that had expectations of nations like national, But it's like, man,
it's an eleven forty five kick It's probably gonna be
seventy thousand max.
Speaker 3: At kickoff for the first half. Right, there's not gonna
be a lot of juice in the building. You've got
to create that juice in your mind. You're gonna have to,
you know, do some special things to get your mind
right for this contest.
Speaker 4: But again, nobody's gonna care about any of that.
Speaker 3: They're not gonna feel sorry for you. We all know
that you got to find a way. I got to this.
It has to be a pride game. Yeah, you have
to find you gotta do something you hadn't really done
all year.
Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, you found ways early in the year.
You found a way to be Clemson, you found a
way to be Florida, but.
Speaker 4: It never looked like you wanted it to look.
Speaker 3: So you're going against the Yeah, would you say winless,
winless in the sca way, yes.
Speaker 4: Okay, you better.
Speaker 5: But they've been pretty close, they've been pretty they're dangerous team.
They have a they have a puncher's chance, I'm telling you,
because that offense is dynamic and explosive. Now, thank god
that they're going against our best unit that we have.
Thank God they don't have like this dynamic and explosive
defense because you know, their defense hasn't been great. So
you're gonna have a poor, you know, poor defense going
against a poor offense right now. And I hate to
say that, but we'll see, we'll see how the quarterback
position plays out as well.
Speaker 4: At LSU.
Speaker 5: Are they really truly going to run? Like I guess,
I guess we're the ones that are kind of bringing
up the word dual quarterback system or a two quarterback
system that they never said that.
Speaker 4: They just said both guys are going to play.
Speaker 5: Yeah, now it could mean one one play for van Buren,
one play for Nusmyer. Who knows what that actually means.
I hope it's not a situation where it's a quarterback
in for a couple of plays, like the guy goes
in for a third down.
Speaker 3: Like the next bus on MTV. Right, you make one
back play next.
Speaker 5: Right, right, or like the just any situation that's planned
out where it's all right, any you know, for van
Buren is going to come in for this first third
down play and you're gonna go back in us like
I don't know, and I get it, like the I
guess the counter argument to that is, well, it's been bad,
so you can't get any worse, really, and I would
actually agree with that. I'm just I guess I'm speaking
in generalities. In a normal offense, it gets quarterbacks out
of rhythm. But you know what, you got four losses.
Your offense doesn't look good, so you know, screw it,
do it. I guess I'm changing my opinion.
Speaker 4: You're changing your mind now.
Speaker 3: I just changed on my mid sentence right there. Let
us stay committed to it. Hey, you gotta stay committed
to the take.
Speaker 4: That's right, you know.
Speaker 5: But what if I would if I had like to
if you're going to play both, and I had like
my choice, I would say, and you want to do still?
Because indication said that Nuts was going to take the
first reps in practice, which means he's going to take
the first reps in the game. Give us the first drive,
give van Buren the second drive, let him switch drives
at least give him an opportunity. Give van Buren the
best chance he has to like get.
Speaker 4: In a rhythm.
Speaker 5: Because the way Frank was talking, it's like Nus is
going to take the lion's share of the reps.
Speaker 3: Van Buren's going to get some strategic plays. That's kind
of how it sounded.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he didn't say that, not out of Frank's mouth,
but that's kind of how it sounded.
Speaker 4: Right, Nuss is our guy.
Speaker 5: He's earned that right to take the first reps is
but they're both guys are going to play it. Sounds
like Nuts will take ninety percent, van Buren take ten.
Speaker 4: That's if I had to guess.
Speaker 5: Maybe that's not the case, maybe split fifty to fifty.
But if they do that, I would like for them
to have the opportunity to get into some sort of rhythm.
Yeah they not just like a two play two play,
two play, because you see it like there's no perfect
way to do any like quarterback competition or a two
quarterback system. There's no one perfect way to do it
because there's count arguments to everything. But you know what,
people of Twitter, I listened to your comments when I
was talking about the dual quarterback system. I listen, and
I agree with you actually, like it hadn't worked, so
you might as.
Speaker 4: Well change something up. You get in some hate.
Speaker 5: No, no, no, I think we put that little clip
of me talking about a dual system. I was talking
to Generality's like, hey, dual quarterbacks, you don't get in
a rhythm and it affects the offense. And everybody's like, uh,
is it gonna make our offense worse?
Speaker 4: And I was like, yeah, yeah, you're kind of right.
On shit. Hey you score twenty five that one time?
Speaker 3: Though, I always have that, always have that. All right,
we'll step away more OTV. Will we come back your

Speaker 5: Yeah, that's what. Yeah, I was. I was looking over
my left shoulder right here.
Speaker 3: I like this Emmitt Smith and Joe Montango Montana shaking
hands after what looks like an NFC championship battle.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I think Emmitt's got a Super Bowl hat on autograft.
Speaker 4: You need that for your cowboy loving heart. That's right.
Oh there's one he's got.
Speaker 5: Jamis Winston up there back in QB one just already
he's been QB one for less than twenty four hours,
and we already have clips of them Electric Fact Electric Factory.
So all these Jameis Winston's stories and like little clips
are starting to pop up on my feet, like recycled
through my feed now that he's kind of back in
the back starting and saw this great interview that I
laughed at the first.
Speaker 4: Time, and I laughed at it again yesterday.
Speaker 5: I think it was mark Ingram talking to somebody else
and they're they're like talking about their favorite Jameis Winston's stories.
They're like, yeah, one time he gives a speech to
the entire team and he starts a speech off in
prayer and by the end of it, he's singing the
Monday Night football theme song.
Speaker 4: Oh yep, what a guy. What a guy.
Speaker 5: Also looking around here at pro Dreams, different memorabilia, see
a picture of autograph picture of Live Dune here, which
brings up, uh, what I was. I just also saw
congratulations to Paul Skens. Yeah, let's go National League cy
Young winner announced yesterday.
Speaker 4: You nanismally voted. Yeah.
Speaker 5: He was super excited. So if you have social media,
go check it out. There's a side by side of
him and Livy last year sitting next to each other
when he was announced as the Rookie of the Year
and absolutely electric facial expressions. He almost he almost creased
his cheek a little bit. Smiling a little bit. No,
he didn't. Then this year, you could tell it was
a thing. They had rehearsed it a little bit more.
They were sitting on the couch, hats and family around.
He was announced as the unanimously voted in Cy Young winner,
and he gave a double fist pump.
Speaker 3: Yeah right there. Yeah, it was a double fist pump
place forced. Yeah, like he was anything, kiss my butt. Yeah,
we've been through this. Yeah, we could tell because like
the year before, like Livy was like real excited and
she was like celebrating and he didn't move at all,
So you could sell that she was a little bit
more reserved.
Speaker 5: They had rehearsed a little bit. They knew that that
was a viral video a little bit, so they didn't
want to make any more news. She probably told him before, Hey,
look you're gonna win this thing. We all but you
know that, Yeah, you got to do something. You got
to give me a little bit of motion, You got
to be.
Speaker 4: A little bit of excitement.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you're a killer on the mound, but you're very
non electric off the mound, which.
Speaker 4: Is kind of which is cool. Yeah, that's kind of cool,
Like that's cool. I want to say young.
Speaker 3: I didn't say like. I didn't say that in a
bad way. I think it's awesome.
Speaker 5: Like you guys that are like absolute killers when they
get in between the chalk, Yeah, but then they're just
like so low key.
Speaker 4: Now he could give us a little bit more.
Speaker 5: We could get a little bit more juice from him, okay,
a little bit more personality from him.
Speaker 4: But we got a double fist pump. Yeah, I mean,
what else do you expect him to do? He he
has two hands. You can only double fist pump. I
don't know, move his mouth from the upward direction.
Speaker 3: He did lead the majors with a one point ninety
seven e R. That's not bad and that inside decent
and sock, although, as a Launder points out, he was
ten and ten on the year because the Pirates are
so bad. Dude had a sub to e R and
lost ten games because the Pirates gave.
Speaker 4: Him absolutely nothing.
Speaker 3: So yeah, fourth in whip, first in the e R,
a fourth in strikeouts, and forty fourth in wins.
Speaker 4: Don't start. Don't start with me, but don't start with
too early. Yeah, don't start. No, won't be no exactly.
Speaker 3: I mean, okay, we're excited about the double fist pump.
It's two more fist pumps than you got a year
ago when he won Rookie of the Year. If he
wins MVP, he might stand up next year and give
you a double fist pump.
Speaker 5: Dude, don't that's you're asking too much, just saying it
could happen.
Speaker 4: He might give a double fist pump.
Speaker 3: To a ooh cross, like like Tiger Woods when he
used to make a big putt.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Now, I think it would take him winning the
World Series, the MVP, the cy Young and Comeback Player
of the Year if he got injured all in one.
Speaker 5: To you think like if he won the World Series
on a like a complete game, no hitter, struck the
last guy out in Game seven, I think at that
point you might get like even a mouth open celebration,
like yeah, okay, but like MVP, when you're just chilling
at your house on the couch with a fam, it's
gonna be.
Speaker 4: A double fist to a right hook celebration. That's it.
Then a hug, then a hug.
Speaker 5: We're gonna we're gonna rinse and repeat that celebration for
the next ten years.
Speaker 3: Yeah, can can they get can they get our guy
to like somewhere outside of Pittsburgh.
Speaker 5: Though there was rumors that he was had said he
had a Yankees dream. I believe is what he said.
Speaker 3: He can have a Yankees, a Dodgers, a Rangers, a Braves,
a Cubs, anybody dream, just not the Pirates some of
Seattle Like, I don't think the Pirates have been relevant
since Barry Bonds was in left field, and Andy van
Slike was in center field, and event and Doug Drebeck
was on the mound, any of it? Sl Like you
don't remember him? No, I don't remember that name. Have
my stash Mmm, I don't think probably, I mean at
some point, at some point, yeah, but it's when Barry
Bonds was playing for him before he went to the.
Speaker 4: Which team Barry Bonds? Yeah, with the Giants. There you go,
Look at you, baseball guy, kidding me with nineties baseball.
I didn't say you didn't know what I was asking
you the question.
Speaker 3: M hmm, wait, I get that wrong. What Laundra just
texted us Yankees? Okay, I got that wrong. No, you
got it right. She's got it Okay. Well, you know
when I when I started talking at baseball.
Speaker 5: I get a little bit self conscious that I'm definitely
not saying the right thing.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but I do nineties Rangers.
Speaker 5: History is right is in the American League Threeak Scooball,
Scooball or Scooball, just keep on. He won Cy Young
for the American League back to back winner, first American
League back to back winter since Pedro Martinez in ninety
nine and two thousand.
Speaker 4: Oh, who do you do that? For Red Sox? They
look at this guy. He's on fire. This guy, he's
on fire. He is a true stitch. Had Jordan. You're right,
you're right about that. Just wait, just wait till baseball
season starts.
Speaker 3: Landre Andrew McCutchen had some moments individually, and I know
you're kind of kidding, but like the Pirates wasted him too,
just like they waste everybody. Yeah, mckitchen, No, not m kitchen. McCutchen,
mc cutchen, that's what I said. That's m You know,
you give this guy just a little bit, just a
little bit of praise, and this is what happens. All right,

for Old Louisiana State University.
Speaker 4: A lot of pros.
Speaker 3: Yeah, go through well, I mean just at a receiver
he had, Molik Neighbors, Brian Thomas junior, Kirraen Lacy, Jack
Bash pretty good, Dray Jenkins too.
Speaker 4: I mean, but.
Speaker 3: I missed one. Yeah, Kayshan Boody. That's he's he's doing
pretty well for himself.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 3: The entire offensive line and Taylor, every every offensive lineman
currently right there outside of the center are playing in
the NFL. So left tackle, left guard, right guard, right tackle. Uh,
Mason Taylor at tied end of course, Jaden the quarterback,
Josh Williams at running back, he's you know, he made
the roster there for Tampa Bay.
Speaker 4: And Hener quarterback.
Speaker 5: But we only have three points and there's two and
a half minutes left in the first half. But it
wasn't your three yet in Brian Kelly's tenures, so we
weren't there yet.
Speaker 4: The receipts weren't printed yet. No, it was still still
printing those receipts.
Speaker 3: So basically everyone but your center is a pro. Sure
and he had three points.
Speaker 4: Cool?
Speaker 5: All right, what a battle score? They won the red zone?
Well all Honestly, Jayden Daniels wasn't really Jayden Daniels yet,
not quite yet.
Speaker 3: He's still the fine pretty damn effective there was moments.
This was the week after the Alabama game.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he was good at that game. Wow, come on, Jayden,
would you stop with the headset over there? Sorry?
Speaker 3: You can hear that, Yeah, I think our entire listening
audience I can hear that there if we go around
the SEC a bit, because you know, the LSU Arkansas
game at eleven forty five going to be shocked.
Speaker 4: It is not the game of the week. It's not
the game of the week in the Southeastern Conference.
Speaker 3: There you got some big ones, though, you got some
that certainly are going to be, you know, very impactful.
Speaker 4: To the college football playoff.
Speaker 3: You've got number eleven Oklahoma traveling to number four Alabama.
You've got number ten Texas traveling to number five Georgia.
So you got some home teams at Alabama and Georgia
gonna have tough tests now right now. Georgia minus six
and a half against the Texas Longhorns. You've got Alabama
minus six and a half against Oklahoma.
Speaker 4: Either one of those end up in an upset. Mmm?
Speaker 5: Is it just me or like I or other people
like me?
Speaker 4: Like most of the time when you ask that, no,
age just you, it's.
Speaker 5: Just me you ask that question this particular instance, Am
I the only one that cheers against Texas every week?
Like I want them to get run out of the
stadium every week in SEC play?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 3: No, I don't. Yeah, I mean I don't. I don't
care one way or the other. Okay, I don't know
why that is. Maybe it's because.
Speaker 4: They're like, you know, are you reason today and m fan?
Speaker 3: No, it's it's just because they're a recent addition to
the SEC. I just want them to you know, Oklahoma, Yeah,
I did, certainly still Missouri. You haven't given Missouri credit
and they've been in the league for thirteen years. Yeah, now,
well I'll never give them credit. But I don't, I
guess selfishly. I just want everybody to have like a
well home to the SEC moment. I hope you know
when constantly, when Eli Drinkwitz becomes the LSU coach, I'm
gonna be like coach. We want you to come on
the show every single week. I know you've probably heard
the things that Flynn said about Missouri and the program
and everything. It's not you, it's just a program. I'm
gonna wear a shirt if he if he did you
just break news. By the way, did you just say
he's their coach? And I said when he wow tried
to make the news right here? People said the same
thing yesterday.
Speaker 5: If it does happen, I'll wear a shirt that says
welcome to the SEC coach.
Speaker 4: That way Actually would be pretty funny if he did that. Like,
I don't know if he'd appreciate. I think he would.
Speaker 3: Oh, absolutely, No, I'm not breaking I said the same
thing yesterday. I'm like, I don't know. It feels good.
It feels good. As say.
Speaker 4: I think drink would be a great, great hire head coach.
L you Tigers, Eli Drinkwitz. How does that sound? How
does that sound coming from me? Sounds good? Okay? Yeah.
Speaker 3: You bring Kirby Moore with you. He's the offensive coordinator.
His brother Kellen right down the street. They can have
family dinners.
Speaker 4: Yep.
Speaker 3: You keep your entire defensive staff, because that was your
defensive staff. For the most part at MISSOO when y'all
won the Cotton Bowl against Ohio State. Sure all right, sure, okay,
well nobody else.
Speaker 4: I don't hear anybody else throwing out any names.
Speaker 3: All we keep talking about is the you know, offshore
betting lines of coaches that aren't going to be here
the offshore.
Speaker 5: Does that have to be I doesn't even have to
be offshore anymore, does it?
Speaker 4: But that's what it is.
Speaker 3: It's like game time, you see, It's like bet online.
Nothing unsure, not that I've seen state side. I hadn't
seen that.
Speaker 4: I wonder what the state side odds are. Anyway. It's
not your decision to make though, but I know I try.
Speaker 3: We just got to leave it up to the some
prominent business owners.
Speaker 4: I had to get on it. Hmmm.
Speaker 5: It's don't really understand why you have a committee when
you have an A D. I guess the committee came
first anyway, I don't yea.
Speaker 4: I guess that is going true. Who did the committee
hold up?
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's like you got the committee that's supposed to
be helping pick the coach. But why why is there
a committee if you got an a D. I understand
having the committee when you it's just like any kind
of like you have a search firm, or you have
an ad or you have a general manager sometimes in
the pros, but you still like you hire a search
firm to find.
Speaker 4: Is that normal? And a head coaching search to have
a committee? I think so, is it? Yeah?
Speaker 3: I mean it's not abnormal. Okay, I don't think so.
I don't think I've ever heard of it. I told
this story yesterday on on off campus, and I think
I'm sure I've told it.
Speaker 4: On this thing before. I don't even note this show.
Speaker 3: But like years ago, years ago, I was working with
a ball game and they were trying to find a
title sponsor, right that was there. They needed a new sponsor,
and so they hired this search firm out of Atlanta, Okay,
and they were going to find a title sponsor for
the ball game. And that was you know, that was
going to be their service. You get paid for the
service whatever. Right, Well, it wasn't really going anywhere. And
I'm like, hey, I know somebody that I think would
be pretty interested. Let me make the call, right, make
the call. Boom boom boom. They're interested. Okay, great, here's
the number. Do you all want to do that. Oh
you want to do that for this number? Okay, cool,
blah blah blah. Hey bowl game. Hey, they're good, they're
ready to go. Okay, so put the put the deal together.
Got a sponsor for the ball game.
Speaker 4: Okay. You know who got paid? A search committee.
Speaker 3: Now again, like with that being said, I've made it
known like, hey, I'm not doing this for I'm just
doing this to help out whatever.
Speaker 4: But you shouldn't have to pay them. They didn't do anything.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like I'm not I don't want anything, but they
surely don't need anything. They got paid pretty good sum
of money.
Speaker 4: Oh I'm sure. Yeah, there was a sponsor. Was it
a food? Yeah, nice cheese it Uh no, it's not cheese.
It's it was not cheeses.
Speaker 3: But yeah, put the whole thing together and send it
to them and everything.
Speaker 4: We're good. All right, cool deal, search firm, hand out.
Well we'll take that. So I was looking.
Speaker 3: At what Oh sorry, my back, you just blackout.
Speaker 4: I did blackout. Sorry.
Speaker 5: I was actually was talking to a group of recently
about there's some sort of my high sponsorship. I was like, whoa,
those price tags are high.
Speaker 4: The old Bowl games. Oh you were gonna have my
high ball.
Speaker 5: No, I was looking at some different things that you
could do stuff with, like the nets or the sign
and d like like a segment, pregame segments, you know,
brought to you by all that stuff.
Speaker 4: Wasn't going to jump just straight in and get a
bowl game?
Speaker 3: Yeah, my high ball? Where would you play the my
high ball? Tyler Texas?
Speaker 5: Yeah, Tyler Rose, Yeah, the Rose Bowl right there, Tyler Rose, Yeah,
Rose Stadium.
Speaker 4: Excuse me? What ballgame? Did you are? Just any ball game? Well?
Speaker 5: It was a script that works with ESPN. They run
like a lot of the dads for the bowl game.
Speaker 4: Okay, like that. It wasn't a bowl game bowl game,
but it was. I didn't know if it was going
to be the High Independence bawl.
Speaker 5: Do you think I'd just like go leave this, sir
and go home at bake cookies like I go work.
I've talked to think, talk to people. We're looking at
all these different avenues. I just run a business. I asked,
was which ball game it was? I was intrigued. It
wasn't a specific one, all right, you know, if it
was in New Mexico Bowl, if it was the was.
Speaker 4: There armed forces there's an Armed Forces there.
Speaker 5: I was looking at that because we do a lot
of work with the military and things like that. I
got that one that was one of the ones that
didn't trigued me at least like perked my ears up.
Speaker 4: Yeah that makes sense.
Speaker 5: But uh yeah, you gotta have a lot of disposable funds.
Speaker 4: Gotta have a lot of dollars, gotta sell a lot
of packs. Yeah, I just gotta be.
Speaker 3: A search firm that doesn't do anything gets paid for it.
Speaker 5: I don't know how you transition from our head coaching
committee to another committee that didn't do anything.
Speaker 3: I don't know why did you Why did that hit
your brain? Because I talked about it yesterday and off campus. Yep,
it was more of a rhetorical question. Okay, all right, Farley,
yepetorical question. All right, we'll take a break on that

seven thirty to eight, nine o'clock start. Huh now literally
just said eight wow, Bud. Anyway, I just.
Speaker 4: Want to.
Speaker 5: Say, it's a beautiful day, beautiful morning. Weather's great. Got
past that one rogue night. I got to thirty one
degrees and that was just fantastic.
Speaker 4: This is.
Speaker 5: This is football weather right here. Although I did really
like this past week.
Speaker 3: You consider cold weather football weather, yeah, football weather, hot weather?
Football weather is Oh my god, am I in an
oven two a day's training camp.
Speaker 4: I have sweat coming out of every poor It.
Speaker 5: Is not that is not considered football weather.
Speaker 3: Yea.
Speaker 5: Nobody says this is football weather when it's hot. It's
when it's cold outside. No, like when I saw that
game was a Chicago game this past weekend where there
are snow flurries everywhere.
Speaker 4: You think snow's football weather, football weather, baby God, No,
it's not.
Speaker 5: Yeah, because the football games that matter are when it's
cold outside, not in the heat. The only football games
that have ever mattered or when it's cold outside unless
than a dome. It's cold outside.
Speaker 4: Just because you played in Green Bay, you know football weather?
Speaker 3: Can you here? Can maybe we put a poll up
cold outside. That's just that's what they tell you.
Speaker 6: That.
Speaker 4: That's what they tell you in country.
Speaker 5: What do you consider guess your biggest.
Speaker 4: Game before noon? Too? Football weather? Football weathers in camp?
Get out of here.
Speaker 5: That is the trashiest take I've ever heard you say.
Speaker 3: Well, played in green Bay, it's cold there. Football played
in Denver? It sucks.
Speaker 4: Uh. Where was football created in the cold? Right? I
don't know. Yeah, it was the first game, like Rutgers
or somebody.
Speaker 5: Those midwesterners up there playing in the cold weather.
Speaker 4: Well, their leather pants to my football weather's cold.
Speaker 3: Y'all are in Louisiana, like in the playoffs, man in
high school, like we'd get in the playoffs and we'd
play a game that was like in the thirties or forties,
coaches walking around football weather boys, really though, I mean,
I know that Matt is right, thank you. Oh, I know,
Mad is right, thank you. Yeah, they're mad is right,
thank you.
Speaker 5: They said the same thing over and over again. Football
weather is not excruciatingly hot. Out of here with that.
That's what I be honest with. You said some bad takes,
and you've got some bad opinions.
Speaker 3: I got some great ones. That's the worst I've ever heard.
I Am going to be real with you, like everybody's saying.
And here, the coldest game they played in is probably
like forty probably like they haven't played in negative seven
in Denver. You tell me, like, you go do that,
and then you can tell me it's football weather.
Speaker 4: Okay, I did. It's old weather. I know you did.
Did you play you played on the field in the
game in negative temperature? I did.
Speaker 5: We had a game that started against the Falcons. It
was I think three degrees when she was in the minuses,
and the first series of the drive that we had,
I was out there for like fifteen straight plays and
I couldn't feel my hands at the end of it,
and we were on the goal line. I'm like, I
feel like Jowan Johnson. I was trying to catch this
snap like this.
Speaker 3: Okay, I can agree with you if we agree that,
like fifty degrees is considered cold here.
Speaker 4: Yeah, oh yeah, okay, all right, yeah, all right, I
get behind that. So the coldest I ever was in
a game.
Speaker 3: Because people like here in Louisiana, like they're calling fifty
and forty five cold. Yeah, but like we're like when
you were in Green Bay. But it got the other night, right,
it got to thirty one. That's really cold for here,
and like a football game in the thirties is for
sure cold weather. Like the coldest I ever was on
the sideline of a Green Bay Packer football game.
Speaker 4: It was thirty three degrees. It was my rookie year.
Speaker 5: We were playing the Colts, and it was like in October,
and I could not stop shaking because I wasn't used
to it, Like it was that was the coldest I'd
ever been. Yeah, but it was thirty three. Later on
in the season, I'm playing in a game it was
like negative eighteen on the side, like and I'm on
the sideline and I'm not shaken, Yeah, because I was
just used to it and all that my body got
like more used to being cold. You don't used to
being like to the cold. You just get used to
being cold, and your body just reacts better to it.
It's ever like better. Your body just doesn't react crazy
to it. Because that was the coldest ever was, which
is wild because I played in a lot of like
way colder games, like there was during the year, like
there'd be times in December January where the temperature would
finally get above freezing. Then you'd drive around with the
windows down because you're like, wow, this is thirty five
woof heat wave.
Speaker 4: Man. I loved it, though, I loved it cold. Yeah, yeah,
I said football weather is cold.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's forty seven degrees compared to there's.
Speaker 5: A point where it's on football weather anymore. I think
that zero degrees is probably it.
