62
00:02:51,199 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 5: Well, you you asked, you added another clause in there.

63
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,800
You had said March madness and then you said bau basketball.

64
00:02:57,879 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 3: This is okay, this bou basketball? Where who are you boasted?

65
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 2: It's probably lists.

66
00:03:02,319 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 5: This is probably going to throw people for a loop

67
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,080
because people know I'm the basketball guy, but it actually

68
00:03:07,199 --> 00:03:07,879
is springball.

69
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:09,639
Speaker 2: I need to see who's behind LJ.

70
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:10,080
Speaker 3: Martin.

71
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,479
Speaker 5: I don't want to see LJ get beat up for

72
00:03:12,599 --> 00:03:14,960
fifty times a game and Bear. I need to see

73
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,080
who's QB two. I need to see who's RB two.

74
00:03:17,599 --> 00:03:19,439
H Parker Kinkson is no longer with the school and

75
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:21,439
on this team, Who's going to be the wide receiver?

76
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,639
And there's a lot of questions to be answered. I

77
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,120
want to see the young talent. I want to see

78
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:28,039
the freshman. Last year, people raved about Tommy Prast's that

79
00:03:28,159 --> 00:03:32,080
was a name obviously, other individuals, Carson Ryan, so uh,

80
00:03:32,479 --> 00:03:35,800
you would like to see what those names this year

81
00:03:35,919 --> 00:03:36,280
are been.

82
00:03:36,319 --> 00:03:37,159

Speaker 3: Let me ask you this, Ben, I have an answer.

88
00:03:45,199 --> 00:03:46,520
I'd be willing to guess.

89
00:03:46,879 --> 00:03:50,199

Speaker 4: That one's a little bit tougher, like if some people

101
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:43,920

105
00:04:59,439 --> 00:05:01,639
Speaker 3: So I delayed on the Lords, I'm a little bit.

106
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:03,800
But you went perfect. You were perfect.

107
00:05:04,079 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 6: So I know we're talking about Joel Clyte later on

108
00:05:06,639 --> 00:05:08,399
the show today, and I hate to start the show

109
00:05:08,439 --> 00:05:10,879
off with a shot at Joel Clyde because apparently in

110
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,600
his recent video he did with the top ten quarterbacks,

111
00:05:13,639 --> 00:05:15,800
he claims, he says, I know bou fans won't believe this,

112
00:05:15,879 --> 00:05:18,920
but I'm actually a bau fan However, it upset me

113
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,240
because in the video he goes, you know, they almost

114
00:05:21,319 --> 00:05:23,399
had him over at Penn State. They really wanted him

115
00:05:23,399 --> 00:05:26,959
there at college station. I said, college station. Excuse me,

116
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,519
hold on, you you know where Penn State is located?

117
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:29,879
Speaker 3: Correct?

118
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 6: You know? Do you know the name of the city, then,

119
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:35,079
without looking at Happy Valley, baby, correct, But what's the

120
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:35,639
city called.

121
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,360
Speaker 4: It's not college station. It's not in the college station

122
00:05:38,959 --> 00:05:43,240
A correct. Yeah, it's close, but that is not Penn State.

123
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:48,639
Penn State is state college, state college. That's right, state College, Pennsylvania.

124
00:05:48,879 --> 00:05:50,439
And that's that's where I'm from.

125
00:05:50,759 --> 00:05:53,199
Speaker 6: And so I was very upset with Joel because the look,

126
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,079
you're the college guy, you're the college football guy.

127
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 3: You're a big ten guy. You don't know.

128
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,439
Speaker 6: Look, I'm not expecting you to know the act, the

129
00:06:00,519 --> 00:06:04,639
Ohio Mountain Valley Western Dental College Conference. I'm not expecting

130
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:06,920
you to know all that, but you don't know that

131
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,480
Penn State, one of the most historic college towns in

132
00:06:09,519 --> 00:06:12,439
the history of America, is located in state college and

133
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:13,720
not college station.

134
00:06:14,959 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 3: We love Joel, We're big Joel Clat fans.

135
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:18,720
Speaker 6: I don't know Joe clot would believe us, but we're

136
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,600
big Joels on this show. I mean, I don't know

137
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,199
if the YU fans believe me, but I'm a big

138
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,199
BOYU fan, so I'm just giving him the same the

139
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:27,839
same symbiosis.

140
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, well like Joel, I mean, it is hard.

141
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,279
It is very hard not to make mistakes when the

142
00:06:35,439 --> 00:06:41,560
cameras rolling, when the radio lie. We've all fallen short

143
00:06:41,639 --> 00:06:47,879
of the grace of perfection unless we're saved. But you

144
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:49,959
have to wonder, like, you know, was it a misapp

145
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,959
or does he just not know? I'm sure he missed seven.

146
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,079
Speaker 6: It just it made me upset because that's where I'm

147
00:06:56,079 --> 00:06:57,279
from and it's not college station.

148
00:06:57,399 --> 00:06:58,639
Speaker 3: And I my father in law.

149
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,199
Speaker 4: I will say time I don't like it, I will say, like,

150
00:07:01,519 --> 00:07:04,639
you know, like when you're you do hear the term

151
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:09,000
happy valley more than you hear the terms and would right,

152
00:07:09,399 --> 00:07:12,079
I will say that, like when you're when you're discussing

153
00:07:12,879 --> 00:07:17,399
Penn State, you hear more often than not on on

154
00:07:17,839 --> 00:07:21,680
all of the platforms, all of the television stations. You know,

155
00:07:21,759 --> 00:07:24,160
they say state college, there's no doubt correct, but but

156
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:27,360
they say happy valley. We're a happy valley, you know,

157
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:29,920
so I don't, but they do.

158
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 3: Not say college station.

159
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,240
Speaker 6: You got at least a happy Valley, because that's like,

160
00:07:34,279 --> 00:07:35,959
if you said Happy Valley, then we're not even having

161
00:07:35,959 --> 00:07:36,519
this conversation.

162
00:07:36,879 --> 00:07:39,439
Speaker 3: You knew it enough to call it by the wrong name.

163
00:07:39,519 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 4: And that's where I You know, what's really interesting about

164
00:07:42,279 --> 00:07:48,560
this Happy Valley conversation is, look like Provo Utah has

165
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:52,000
been dubbed Happy Valley as well. That really confused me

166
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,079
when I'm moving right, Yeah, yeah, it's just not happy Valley.

167
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:59,120
So it's why is it happy value? Well, it's you

168
00:07:59,199 --> 00:08:02,360
know a lot of happy Mormons, right. My buddy always

169
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,279
gives me a hard time. He grew up in Arizona

170
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:06,959
with me and not LDS, and he'll come up here

171
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:08,720
to you tys like, hey, this is so nice.

172
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 3: You go to the four way stuff.

173
00:08:09,959 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 4: No, no, you go, no, you go and you try

174
00:08:12,839 --> 00:08:16,720
to out nice people, right and and anyway. You know,

175
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:19,480
so there is definitely that happy Valley. People feel it, right.

176
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:23,680
They come to Provo and they always say, hey, we

177
00:08:23,759 --> 00:08:26,199
got ice cream. We were we were down twenty one

178
00:08:26,279 --> 00:08:28,560
points in the fourth courter. We got ice cream. You know,

179
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,319
they're loving us up or we're beating their team, and

180
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,240
then they give us ice cream whatever.

181
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:34,679
Speaker 3: They don't curse at us.

182
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:38,200
Speaker 4: They're kind, they're they're loving, they're they're they're not talking

183
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,399
trash to you, like thanks for coming. They're always saying

184
00:08:40,399 --> 00:08:45,200
they're always gracious. So there's that element. But Happy Valley

185
00:08:45,279 --> 00:08:49,720
almost took Kilani. They took Kalani from Happy Valley, Provo

186
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,000
to Happy Valley. I almost took them to that Happy

187
00:08:52,039 --> 00:08:55,480
Valley State College the og Happy Valley right, because I

188
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:59,759
don't know when that term was actually given to pro

189
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,320
vote Utah, and I know you're gonna do a little

190
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,960
due diligence now to figure it out what the timeline was,

191
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:09,360
the date, the official dates of these monikers, these nicknames

192
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:13,120
of these great cities that are kind of similar.

193
00:09:13,279 --> 00:09:15,519
Speaker 3: Like you look at State College.

194
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 4: That's a small town in Provo in many regards, I

195
00:09:20,639 --> 00:09:21,519
mean Utah County.

196
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:24,159
Speaker 3: I mean it's got Oorum has got Linden, you know,

197
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,080
it's got Alpak College in the middle of nowhere. It's

198
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:27,919
in the middle of nowhere.

199
00:09:28,159 --> 00:09:34,200
Speaker 4: And look, Utah and in this metropolitan area is also

200
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,159
kind of in the middle of nowa. It's beyond Sale

201
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,559
County and Utah County. We're kind of kind of you know,

202
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:40,960
in the middle of nowhere. I mean, we got the

203
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,759
I fifteen corridor, but like, there's not much east and

204
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:45,720
west going on. We had three and a half million

205
00:09:45,799 --> 00:09:49,279
people in a in a in a fairly large geographical area,

206
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,639
you know what I mean per capita per square mile.

207
00:09:52,879 --> 00:09:55,200
A lot of people, not a lot of people live

208
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,159
in here is what I'm getting now. But yeah, State College,

209
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:02,120
what forty thousand or so people live there? Provo has more,

210
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,799
I believe, how many more, I'm not sure. But anyway,

211
00:10:05,879 --> 00:10:08,679
what do you have any notes on when Happy Valley

212
00:10:09,399 --> 00:10:13,360
was was was placed on Provo and when Happy Valley

213
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,039
was placed on State College.

214
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,960
Speaker 6: It is weird that both the towns that are famous

215
00:10:18,039 --> 00:10:19,879
for using this are both college downs.

216
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 3: Very interesting. Oh yeah, so Provo started using it.

217
00:10:23,639 --> 00:10:28,639
Speaker 6: We don't have official dates, but generally they attribute the

218
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,399
Happy Value nickname to Provo somewhere between the.

219
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:32,759
Speaker 3: Fifties to the seventies.

220
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:38,159
Speaker 6: And for State College in Pennsylvania, the nickname bates back

221
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,559
to the Great Depression, which is so it was more

222
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:44,080
for Stay College, it was more of like a Depression

223
00:10:44,279 --> 00:10:47,440
era revival economic resilient story, which is why they got

224
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,720
the nickname. And then for your point, it's it was

225
00:10:49,759 --> 00:10:53,120
like a regional lifestyle branding for Provo and family and

226
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:54,320
all that good stuff.

227
00:10:54,399 --> 00:10:56,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, and there's been plenty of like recent data about

228
00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:57,840
like happiest.

229
00:10:59,639 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 3: Stay in the USA, and Utah is very high, right,

230
00:11:04,159 --> 00:11:05,600
I mean Hawaii is very high.

231
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,159
Speaker 4: I think Utah most recent studies, you know, in the

232
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:13,279
top ten, top five per many so they typically, you know,

233
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:17,200
you see job satisfaction, life, work life satisfaction, family life,

234
00:11:17,279 --> 00:11:21,639
religious life satisfaction. So it's happy. We're happy. We're happier

235
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:26,320
than those Pennsylvanians. We're happier than you guys.

236
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:27,679
Speaker 3: I'll tell you this.

237
00:11:27,879 --> 00:11:29,720
Speaker 6: Growing up, we had to drive an hour and a

238
00:11:29,759 --> 00:11:33,480
half to state conference and three and a half hours

239
00:11:33,519 --> 00:11:35,480
in every direction if you wanted to get to a temple.

240
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,480
And we didn't have a beat ups in town, like

241
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,600
even in State College. State College is a college town.

242
00:11:39,759 --> 00:11:40,639
We didn't have a beat up.

243
00:11:40,759 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 3: So yeah, not a lot.

244
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,799
Speaker 4: Where do you think Pennsylvania is ranked per Wallethub. This

245
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:48,600
was a recent study done. This was published in twenty

246
00:11:48,759 --> 00:11:52,320
twenty five. I remember chatting about happiest states in America.

247
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:57,600
This was Adam McCann Wallethub, financial writer and so happy

248
00:11:57,639 --> 00:11:59,519
to shape by a mix of internal and external factors

249
00:11:59,519 --> 00:12:02,000
is to give you and qualifiers. We can boost it

250
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,399
by approaching situation positively or choosing to spend time with

251
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,720
people we love doing activities we enjoy. However, other things

252
00:12:08,159 --> 00:12:10,799
are out of our control, like the cost of living crisis,

253
00:12:10,879 --> 00:12:14,120
record high economic and uncertainty, and they have taken a call.

254
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,759
Only forty four percent of Americans say they are very

255
00:12:16,879 --> 00:12:20,039
satisfied with their lives, even though people across the US

256
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,240
are facing difficult times. In state in which you live

257
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,399
may have an impact on how happy you are. In

258
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,960
this study, wallet Hub drew upon findings of happiness research

259
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,320
to determine which environmental factors are leaking to a person's

260
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:31,240
overall well being.

261
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,679
Speaker 3: And satisfaction with life. Previous studies have found.

262
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:36,120
Speaker 4: That good economic, emotional, physical, and social health are all

263
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:40,159
key to a well balanced, fulfilled life. To determine where

264
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,039
Americans exhibit the best combination of these factors, we examined

265
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,559
the fifty states across the thirty key metrics ranging from

266
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:50,279
depression rate and share of adults feeling productive to income

267
00:12:50,399 --> 00:12:53,919
growth and unemployment rate. So those are some of the

268
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,679
factors of thirty factors that they took into account. Hawaise

269
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:02,919
number one, Okay, is number six, I know it's actually

270
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:06,480
number ten. California at number seven. Where do you think

271
00:13:07,639 --> 00:13:12,000
Pennsylvania is the thing I'll say about Pennsylvania. It wasn't

272
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:15,000
It's not for me. But the thing I will say

273
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:15,639
about it is like.

274
00:13:15,759 --> 00:13:18,399
Speaker 6: Those people live in the middle of nowhere, like it's

275
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:23,000
there's one stoplight between, like there's just there's one stoplight

276
00:13:23,039 --> 00:13:24,320
and everybody knows where it is, and that's where all

277
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:26,799
the gas stations are. Those people love living in the

278
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:28,840
middle of nowhere, all of them. They don't want to

279
00:13:28,919 --> 00:13:31,399
be close to it. They love driving thirty minutes to

280
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,840
get to target. I actually would guess. My guess is

281
00:13:34,919 --> 00:13:37,080
somewhere between ten to twenty five.

282
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,960
Speaker 3: They're number eighteen. Yeah, all right, so there you go.

283
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:43,759
They're happy. They're happy people, so they are. They're happy.

284
00:13:43,799 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 4: They're above Georgia and Wisconsin in North Dakota, North Dakota,

285
00:13:48,279 --> 00:13:51,120
North Dkota right there, Yeah, in front of them is Iowa,

286
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,600
New York, and Virginia Soda.

287
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 3: I wouldn't have guessed in New York, Florida. Florida's fourteenth.

288
00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:57,720
So that's my mission.

289
00:13:57,919 --> 00:14:00,200
Speaker 4: South Dakota's thirteenth. By the way that the code is,

290
00:14:01,279 --> 00:14:03,120
there's a lot of land and not a lot of

291
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:09,480
stop stoplights. Oh man, all right, Big Kram on the

Speaker 3: Utah dot Com. I want to ask you guys this

335
00:16:23,279 --> 00:16:24,159
question in this segment.

336
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 4: Okay, many of you, many of Cougarnation, they're intrigued by

337
00:16:27,799 --> 00:16:29,919
the wide Receiver one competition this year.

338
00:16:30,639 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 3: These are your candidates to become the guy, the dude,

339
00:16:33,879 --> 00:16:34,480
the targeted.

340
00:16:35,919 --> 00:16:40,639
Speaker 4: Jojo Phillips six five he's good, redshirt junior, Cody Hagen

341
00:16:40,799 --> 00:16:43,080
going into his junior year six foot one, one eighty five.

342
00:16:43,399 --> 00:16:46,360
Tanakua sophomore, red shirt sophomore six two one eight five.

343
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:50,399
Tiger Bachmeyer senior six foot one one ninety, Reggie Frishcinnet

344
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,759
red shirt sophomore six four two o seven Legend Glasgar

345
00:16:53,919 --> 00:16:58,000
true freshman sixty one one seventy five, Kyler Casper, redshirt junior,

346
00:16:58,039 --> 00:17:01,360
six foot six two twelve. Jared Hula freshman six foot three,

347
00:17:01,399 --> 00:17:05,599
two hundred, Terrence Sarian freshman five foot eleven, one seventy

348
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:11,759
who's your favorite right now to be Bear Bachmeyer's favorite target?

349
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,039
Speaker 3: And why start us off?

350
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:17,799
Speaker 4: Hammer time show Britt always bringing the hammer and then Ronnie, uh,

351
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:19,200
you go second, I'll bring.

352
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:19,759
Speaker 3: Up the Caboos.

353
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:25,160
Speaker 4: It is such an interesting conversation, man, because none of

354
00:17:25,279 --> 00:17:27,440
these guys really have.

355
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:30,720
Speaker 3: Background as a wide receiver one.

356
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:35,359
Speaker 6: Like, at least with Darius or Kielan, you knew that

357
00:17:35,519 --> 00:17:38,400
they had that because they did it at a smaller school,

358
00:17:38,519 --> 00:17:40,839
mind you but it, but at least they had been

359
00:17:41,039 --> 00:17:42,160
the guy somewhere.

360
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:42,599
Speaker 3: Yep.

361
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:46,799
Speaker 6: None of these guys have been the guy at the

362
00:17:47,559 --> 00:17:52,640
power for level at the college level, so it's really interesting.

363
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:56,200
The name that jumps off the page obviously, is like,

364
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,880
what if Tiger Bachmeyer was number one wide receiver.

365
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 3: I don't think that'll be the case. I think I

366
00:18:03,559 --> 00:18:04,599
told this around this morning.

367
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,039
Speaker 6: I think Tiger Bachmeyer, of a lot of these guys,

368
00:18:08,559 --> 00:18:10,599
I think he has the lowest ceiling, but I think

369
00:18:10,599 --> 00:18:13,000
he has the highest floor. Like I think he's the

370
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:17,440
most guaranteed consistent receiver, but I also think he's the

371
00:18:17,559 --> 00:18:19,680
least likely to pop off for like one hundred and

372
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,160
fifty yards and two touchdowns. So as far as the

373
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:29,240
wide receiver one conversation goes, I think your wide receiver

374
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:35,279
one will be Jared Poula. I think I think after

375
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:38,079
practice today and over the next couple of weeks. It

376
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:42,319
is going to be a conversation akin to the conversation

377
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:45,759
surrounding Bear Bachmeier week one to fall camp, and we're like, well,

378
00:18:45,799 --> 00:18:47,559
it can't be him because he's a true freshman.

379
00:18:47,599 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 4: I don't think he'll do it. Yeah, I think Jaren

380
00:18:51,079 --> 00:18:56,400
Puola is going to turn some heads at camp today.

381
00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:00,480
Speaker 3: I like it. I like it a lot, very hot,

382
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:04,559
fiery take Ronald the three man Weaver. Who's your favorite and.

383
00:19:04,759 --> 00:19:10,079
Speaker 2: Why none on this list? Whoa you talk about?

384
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 3: By the way, this take that ron has is hotter

385
00:19:12,279 --> 00:19:12,640
than mine.

386
00:19:12,839 --> 00:19:13,599
Speaker 2: It is very hot.

387
00:19:13,799 --> 00:19:16,279
Speaker 5: Let's go hotter, right, but it's not hyperble. I know

388
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:18,000
it can be prone to be that, but this is not.

389
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,960
It's realistic safety blanket. Was hoofer Bear last year? Been

390
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:27,000
wasn't Chase? It was who number twenty in blue? Yeah,

391
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,839
number eighty four in blue. Let's go tight end, Let's

392
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:35,960
go the one walker Lions. Look, Brad just broke it

393
00:19:36,039 --> 00:19:38,680
down for you. There's no guy on this list that

394
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,839
is proven it and liked it at that level. Yeah, people,

395
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,519
you like what you saw against Jojo Phillips, But has

396
00:19:44,599 --> 00:19:46,680
it been yet? Okay, he got dinged, he got hurt,

397
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,839
but you haven't seen it. Walker, I feel like has

398
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:51,880
the potential. He did it in high school. You saw

399
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:53,559
he can line up in the slot, he can line

400
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:57,000
up on the outside. Carson Ryan, you know, started to

401
00:19:57,039 --> 00:19:59,240
get integrated to the offense the later part of the

402
00:19:59,279 --> 00:20:02,839
season and he looked phenomenal. I think Walker has that

403
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:04,680
ability when you have a flex tight end that has

404
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:08,359
the catching ability of Isaac Rex and Dallan Hulker mixed

405
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,039
in the one and he's nice by himself without that.

406
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:14,839
I just think Ben, that look for the list that

407
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:17,480
you named for me, it's Legend Glaskar on that list

408
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,359
because of his route running ability and his speed. I

409
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:22,680
think Cody Hagen needs to look out for his kickoff

410
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:27,039
spot because Legend's coming for him. If Cody can't stay healthy,

411
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,359
that's if Cody can't stay healthy. When he's healthy, it's

412
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:32,720
Cody Hagen. But to me, Ben, I think Walker Lions,

413
00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:34,759
a rod likes to throw to the tight end, has

414
00:20:34,799 --> 00:20:37,759
been and I just think that Walker Lions has a

415
00:20:37,839 --> 00:20:40,440
chance to be up there as a top three receiver

416
00:20:40,839 --> 00:20:42,319
this year. I don't think that's a I don't think

417
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,039
that's why. Probably I think that's a legit take you

418
00:20:44,079 --> 00:20:44,400
can make.

419
00:20:45,079 --> 00:20:47,880
Speaker 6: I don't want to put out the fire of Ron's take,

420
00:20:48,519 --> 00:20:51,680
but I just want to contextualize with some numbers. Do

421
00:20:51,759 --> 00:20:54,160
you guys know who the last tight end was in

422
00:20:54,279 --> 00:20:57,359
college football to lead a college football program in yards

423
00:20:57,519 --> 00:20:58,079
or catches?

424
00:21:00,079 --> 00:21:00,599
Speaker 3: Give you a hint.

425
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:03,680
Speaker 4: It hasn't been done since twenty eighteen, so it's been

426
00:21:03,759 --> 00:21:06,599
a while. This guy is an elite NFL tight end

427
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:12,079
and I'm trying to remember where he plays, but spoiler alert,

428
00:21:12,279 --> 00:21:14,920
you could probably guess what college he went to tight

429
00:21:15,039 --> 00:21:17,440
end you those Iowa how high?

430
00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:20,720
Speaker 3: The last time a.

431
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:24,839
Speaker 6: Tight end led a college ball program in yards and

432
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:30,240
catches or either one was TJ. Hockinson at the University

433
00:21:30,279 --> 00:21:33,240
of Iowa with forty nine catches and seven hundred and

434
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:37,319
sixty yards. Which if our best receiver has seven hundred

435
00:21:37,319 --> 00:21:40,640
and sixty yards, then I hope that every single one

436
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,480
of those running backs is pushing near one thousand, because that.

437
00:21:43,559 --> 00:21:45,319
Speaker 3: To me is he won the Mackie Award.

438
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:48,599
Speaker 6: That he did win, they did that he had it.

439
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:50,440
There was another tight end on that team you might

440
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:52,880
have heard of, the man named Noah Fant. He also

441
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:57,319
had five hundred nineteen yards. So look if Walker Lions

442
00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,559
can do it awesome. My guess is if he if

443
00:22:00,599 --> 00:22:04,079
he wasn't number one tight end at USC. I don't

444
00:22:04,079 --> 00:22:06,319
know that he's doing it to BYU, but I'd love

445
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,079
to be proven wrong. Ron I would love for Walker

446
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,160
Lions to win the Mackie Award this year.

447
00:22:11,279 --> 00:22:12,920
Speaker 5: Well, and that's why I said top three right, because

448
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,720
he's look, I believe that. I believe he's gonna be

449
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:19,119
a top three receiver on this team. I just I

450
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:21,640
believe there's too much in the wide receiver room for

451
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:24,079
all those guys to get time, and Walker's a day

452
00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:25,119
one started immediately.

453
00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:31,039
Speaker 4: I think it's very intriguing. We made this comment probably

454
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:35,119
last week. You look at the tenure, you look at

455
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:40,279
the seasoned vets Jujo Phillips sixty five two five, you

456
00:22:40,319 --> 00:22:44,119
could say Reggie, I mean, with a year under his bell,

457
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:46,039
I wouldn't say he's a he's a season vet, but

458
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:50,160
he's got at least college football productivity. Six foot four

459
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:54,000
two o seven, big body, big body Kyler Casper six

460
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:58,160
six to twelve. And then your guy Jaren's actually six

461
00:22:58,279 --> 00:23:01,599
three two hundred tay, you know, pretty thick, six two

462
00:23:01,839 --> 00:23:03,599
eighty five, and any of your smaller guy sixty one

463
00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,359
to one ninety, Tiger Cody Hagen sixty one one eighty five,

464
00:23:06,519 --> 00:23:09,240
Terrence Seri on five foot eleven, one seventy is a

465
00:23:09,319 --> 00:23:12,880
pretty big wide receiving cores. Walker's you know, sixty three

466
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:16,279
six four two forty, and I wouldn't be surprised to

467
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:20,240
your point, Ronnie, if Walker Lions, I've heard reports, is

468
00:23:20,559 --> 00:23:26,079
just as fast as Jojo Phillips, just as fast as

469
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:31,839
somebody these big bodied wide receivers. So he's essentially a

470
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:36,440
wide receiver in somewhat of a tight ends body at

471
00:23:36,519 --> 00:23:40,839
two forty five to forty, which is impressive to say

472
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:42,920
the least. Like when you're taking you got thirty more

473
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,039
pounds in a guy and you run as fast as

474
00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,559
he can, and you run rounds as good as he can.

475
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,319
I mean, you combine that with Roger sali Apaga if he's.

476
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:52,039
Speaker 3: In in the mix.

477
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:58,599
Speaker 4: Two those are that's five eligible and you could go

478
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:04,559
I mean, you could go empty with those guys. And

479
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:09,319
there's probably some bodying matchups there not you know, maybe

480
00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:13,640
some vertical threat, but like your intermediate passing game and

481
00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:18,680
those fifty fifties may turn into seventy thirties eighty twenties

482
00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:19,319
because of the big.

483
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:22,400
Speaker 3: Body matchups that you have, and that would be intriguing.

484
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:26,279
Speaker 4: Now the case the curious case of wide receiver one,

485
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,240
I think if I'm just taking the wide receiver one list,

486
00:24:31,559 --> 00:24:36,119
I think you lean probably towards Jojo Phillips. Why why

487
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,119
do you lean towards Jojo Phillips Because if you look

488
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:41,240
at you know, he's actually been game.

489
00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:46,720
Speaker 3: Planned before, like a rod has has it.

490
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,359
Speaker 4: But prior to that Stanford game, I believe it was

491
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:53,039
that every like the game plan was get him touches

492
00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:56,240
high let him, Yeah, highlight Jojo. You can't do that

493
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:58,680
unless like there's a certain amount of trust. Now, did

494
00:24:58,799 --> 00:24:59,799
Jojo always catching the ball?

495
00:24:59,839 --> 00:25:04,359
Speaker 3: Now? But he was open, He's right there, and and

496
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:05,960
when he does have a.

497
00:25:06,039 --> 00:25:09,720
Speaker 4: Catch high pointing, you know, one handed, I mean, it's

498
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:11,880
a it's a beautiful thing. So you saw a front

499
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,839
end before his injury. Three reception thirty yards and he

500
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,839
got multiple more targets in that game. He got injured,

501
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:19,960
and he finally made it back in the Texas Tech

502
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:21,799
game at the end of the season.

503
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:23,160
Speaker 3: The two final games.

504
00:25:23,279 --> 00:25:26,240
Speaker 4: Okay, and Parker was involved, right, you had you're you're

505
00:25:26,559 --> 00:25:30,559
you had all your guys available. He had seven receptions

506
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,400
in almost one hundred yards in those in those two games,

507
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:39,559
so combined, I believe if you're gonna bet on anybody

508
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:43,759
right now to take a jump forward and be a

509
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:45,400
wide receiver one.

510
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:46,880
Speaker 3: I think it's Jojo.

511
00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:50,720
Speaker 4: I think it's Jojo, and I think he's had a

512
00:25:50,759 --> 00:25:53,319
pretty good offseason all things considered. I think he's had

513
00:25:53,319 --> 00:25:54,920
a pretty good offseason. Now, would I like more.

514
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:58,200
Speaker 3: Dog in him? Yes, He's a good blocker. Though.

515
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:01,480
Speaker 4: One of the reasons why he's going to get game

516
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:05,920
planned is because you can keep him on the field

517
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:10,000
the entire freaking game. He's got good length, he locks

518
00:26:10,079 --> 00:26:14,759
up defenders, and he drives his feet. He's not too

519
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:18,240
good to block. And when you're not too good to block,

520
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:21,359
you stay on the field and if you can get open,

521
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:24,160
you're gonna get opportunities. Now, if he drops a ton

522
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:26,559
of balls, then yeah, you're you're gonna have a limited

523
00:26:26,839 --> 00:26:29,000
You're gonna have a limited number of targets and Bear's

524
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:29,960
gonna stop throwing to you.

525
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:33,359
Speaker 3: But remember Bear was targeting him and a Rod was

526
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:34,240
game planning him.

527
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:39,079
Speaker 4: So I'm leaning right now Jojoe Phillips that's my guy

528
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:43,039
because out of all the guys listed, he's the guy

529
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,240
with the most targets, he's the guy with the most

530
00:26:45,319 --> 00:26:48,599
catches in the system that is being employed right now,

531
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:52,920
and he's a red shirt junior. Tenure does matter in

532
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,599
the A Rod offense, I believe, And I don't know

533
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:58,759
how many guys like how good of a blocker is Legend,

534
00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:00,880
how good of a block Jared?

535
00:27:01,279 --> 00:27:02,119
Speaker 3: Some of the young bucks.

536
00:27:02,799 --> 00:27:05,440
Speaker 4: You know, Tiger is a pretty good blocker, Like you know,

537
00:27:05,559 --> 00:27:07,960
he could end up being I mean, look, if Bear

538
00:27:08,039 --> 00:27:10,200
wants to target his brother a little bit more, I

539
00:27:10,279 --> 00:27:13,799
mean he did, like you saw Tiger get looks it

540
00:27:14,039 --> 00:27:14,319
very well.

541
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,440
Speaker 3: Could be Tiger uppercut.

542
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:21,319
Speaker 4: Street fighter, street fighter, Tiger Baby could be Tiger. But

543
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,480
like right now, I'm leaning towards Jojo. If you're you're

544
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:29,359
a big fan of of brotherly love and cohesion, chemistry

545
00:27:30,039 --> 00:27:33,319
and repetitions. I mean, look, Tiger and Bear I think

546
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:37,359
live together. They could throw at any time. You'd expect

547
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:41,240
the chemistry to be off the charts with Bear and

548
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:47,480
Tiger right especially going into year two. But game planning

549
00:27:47,519 --> 00:27:52,279
also is a part of that too. I wouldn't be

550
00:27:52,319 --> 00:27:55,240
surprised if Reggie really takes a big step forward as well.

551
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,559
I think Reggie could take a really big step forward.

552
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:00,759
Speaker 3: Once again.

553
00:28:01,279 --> 00:28:03,720
Speaker 4: Big body, he can run, he's got great routes. He's

554
00:28:03,799 --> 00:28:08,119
kind of a Chase Roberts type, and he's coachable.

555
00:28:08,319 --> 00:28:10,200
Speaker 3: Best. We went out and got this kid from Web.

556
00:28:11,039 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 4: You know, he entered the portal and and Reggie came

557
00:28:14,519 --> 00:28:17,759
to Brigham was fantastic at SNOW. We've had Zach Erickson

558
00:28:17,839 --> 00:28:21,039
on the on the line many times talking Reggie FRISHCNNET.

559
00:28:21,799 --> 00:28:24,000
So right now, I would say my two leaders are

560
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,960
actually Jojo and Reggie. I'm gonna go either Jojo and Reggie,

561
00:28:27,279 --> 00:28:29,920
but I really like to take on on Walker as

562
00:28:30,039 --> 00:28:33,279
being kind of a flex tight end wide receiver, and

563
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:35,200
I think that I think actually the hottest tak is

564
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:39,160
you saying, Jaron Puola, I think it's like in Fuego,

565
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:42,039
like my The only and the only reason I think

566
00:28:42,079 --> 00:28:44,319
that is because like there's not a clear cut good

567
00:28:44,359 --> 00:28:45,319
answer on this team.

568
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:47,359
Speaker 3: I agree with you about Jojo.

569
00:28:47,799 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 6: I think Jojo has the highest ceiling of anybody in

570
00:28:50,759 --> 00:28:52,880
this wide receiver room. But to the same point it

571
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,400
made about Tiger, I think he has the lowest floor

572
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:58,119
because you just never know what you're gonna get. Like

573
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:01,240
he has the easiest path to get like one hundred

574
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:03,400
and fifty yards in two touchdowns, but it's just a

575
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:07,039
matter of like will he do that. He's the most talented,

576
00:29:07,319 --> 00:29:10,359
but he's not necessarily the most developed. I certainly think

577
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:12,720
it could be Jojo Phillips, and if I was a

578
00:29:12,799 --> 00:29:15,480
betting man in Vegas, I think that's the safest bet.

579
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,720
But I also think last year Bear Bachmeyer approved that,

580
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:23,720
like not everything is a guarantee. Maybe, and wide receiver

581
00:29:23,839 --> 00:29:26,039
I think is an easier place to get reps at

582
00:29:26,119 --> 00:29:30,000
as a freshman than quarterback is. I think Jared Pool

583
00:29:30,079 --> 00:29:31,960
is a freak athlete. He's a four star for a reason.

584
00:29:32,039 --> 00:29:32,880
I think he could do it.

585
00:29:33,839 --> 00:29:36,240
Speaker 4: The guy that should be on this BAU football roster

586
00:29:36,759 --> 00:29:39,400
goes by the name of Gatlin Bear. He's got off

587
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:43,200
the mission. He's at Oregon LDS kid in his high school.

588
00:29:44,119 --> 00:29:47,119
You know, his high school senior season in Bertley, Idaho,

589
00:29:47,559 --> 00:29:50,119
he has seventy three receptions over a thousand yards and

590
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:51,200
eighteen touchdowns.

591
00:29:51,319 --> 00:29:51,880
Speaker 3: That's the guy.

592
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:53,880
Speaker 4: If he that was his junior year, I think I

593
00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:56,200
don't even know if I have his updated senior stats

594
00:29:56,279 --> 00:29:59,680
that was his junior year. I think he surpassed that

595
00:30:00,279 --> 00:30:04,160
his senior year significantly. So that's who I would love

596
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:06,599
to see on this roster. That you don't have a

597
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,960
guy like Gatlin Barr. I mean he was running a

598
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:12,519
uh like a ten to time.

599
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 6: Correct me if I'm wrong, But I'm pretty sure there's

600
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:16,799
already two organ transfers on this team.

601
00:30:16,839 --> 00:30:18,839
Speaker 3: Don't worry, we'll get him, We'll get just not here yet.

602
00:30:20,079 --> 00:30:21,839
From the data I'm looking at, it says we just

603
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,240
got to I'm sure we'll get enough. Let's get another one.

604
00:30:24,319 --> 00:30:25,680
Let's get in and another one.

605
00:30:25,839 --> 00:30:29,480
Speaker 4: Speaking of that, isn't a big twelve tournament right around

606
00:30:29,519 --> 00:30:32,920
the corner, DJ Khaled, I know, and another and and

607
00:30:33,319 --> 00:30:36,400
we're trying another one. We've been discussing Ronald and I

608
00:30:36,559 --> 00:30:38,240
whether or not we're sending him out.

609
00:30:39,119 --> 00:30:42,680
Speaker 3: And after the last game just keeps just keeps.

610
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:43,240
Speaker 4: No.

611
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:45,359
Speaker 3: I don't know if I want to send you out there,

612
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:47,200
but just going for the party in the big No.

613
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,720
Speaker 2: No, no, no, ron works, I work hard.

614
00:30:50,519 --> 00:30:52,440
Speaker 3: Party with DJ call, I would.

615
00:30:52,319 --> 00:30:53,960
Speaker 2: Play hard after I get up my work done. This

616
00:30:54,079 --> 00:30:55,400
is true. I don't know.

617
00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:57,759
Speaker 5: I'm as I've gotten older now and once it gets

618
00:30:57,799 --> 00:31:01,240
to like ten o'clock, I'm like a sweet treat in

619
00:31:01,319 --> 00:31:02,039
some milk and go to bed.

620
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:03,880
Speaker 3: Ron. You're doing it for that, You're doing it for

621
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:05,839
the boots on the ground journalism to hang out.

622
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:07,559
Speaker 2: This is true job.

623
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:09,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, but here's the thing when I when I when

624
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:11,119
you get sent out with Ben, you know there's certain

625
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:12,440
you have to you have to make sure that you

626
00:31:12,559 --> 00:31:13,400
hit the s ops.

627
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 2: And me, I'm from Chicago. I like the party. If

628
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,359
I get too much party, I don't work and I

629
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:18,000
lose my job.

630
00:31:18,079 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 6: So that party is a part of the work. Ron,

631
00:31:20,279 --> 00:31:23,799
it's a Big twelve event going to something.

632
00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:26,960
Speaker 2: But see, but that's the thing, like you see Brett,

633
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:27,920
you know me, but you don't know me.

634
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:28,079
Speaker 3: Bro.

635
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:30,079
Speaker 2: We talked about this, remember when I invited you and

636
00:31:30,119 --> 00:31:30,960
your wife to the club.

637
00:31:31,839 --> 00:31:34,039
Speaker 6: Choice is at a Big twelve sponsored event. Ron, this

638
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,240
is just asking you to go ask DJ. I know,

639
00:31:36,359 --> 00:31:38,480
but I might be YU is his favorite team in

640
00:31:38,519 --> 00:31:39,519
the Big twel You're right, I.

641
00:31:39,759 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 2: Can do that. I can do the Capitol J. Ben

642
00:31:41,599 --> 00:31:42,400
just might not like that.

643
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:44,680
Speaker 5: If he looks at ESPN he sees me next to

644
00:31:44,759 --> 00:31:47,279
DJ Khaled dancing, like, wait a second, he's don't think

645
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:48,720
you get.

646
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:51,119
Speaker 3: DJ Khaled at the Big Twelve Tournament. I don't think

647
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,960
Ben's gonna have any problem with it. I'll be fine

648
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:55,880
with it. Okay, good quote from DJ.

649
00:31:56,039 --> 00:31:57,559
Speaker 5: Hey, I'll get a good quote. I'll corner him like

650
00:31:57,599 --> 00:31:59,079
a corner the commission of your mark.

651
00:31:59,160 --> 00:31:59,839
Speaker 3: That is what I do do.

652
00:32:00,119 --> 00:32:01,920
Speaker 5: He avoids me now when he sees me, he makes

653
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:03,519
But I don't know if I told the story at

654
00:32:03,519 --> 00:32:05,279
the pop Tarts Bowl. You know, Ben, I like the

655
00:32:05,319 --> 00:32:07,000
press because they the pop Tarts bout. I don't let

656
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:08,480
you on the field, So I'll talk to the lady

657
00:32:08,559 --> 00:32:11,640
in charge, talk to the men got access you know,

658
00:32:11,759 --> 00:32:13,279
to the field for like, you know, a good like

659
00:32:13,599 --> 00:32:16,160
seven to eight minutes. And I stopped commissioning your mark

660
00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:18,039
and I shook his hand. I said a few words,

661
00:32:18,079 --> 00:32:22,359
and he said I walked off. He knows not to

662
00:32:22,519 --> 00:32:24,480
talk to me because I'm looking for answers.

663
00:32:24,559 --> 00:32:26,799
Speaker 2: But that's what you do. You you don't know until

664
00:32:26,799 --> 00:32:28,240
he asked the question. That's all I'll say on that.

665
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:30,519
Speaker 5: But I need boy, you to win the last three

666
00:32:30,559 --> 00:32:33,519
games because otherwise I'll be doing more spring ball covering

667
00:32:33,599 --> 00:32:35,920

668
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:38,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, I gotta I gotta have to. I gotta have

669
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:40,440
a belief that this team can actually win.

670
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:42,559
Speaker 2: They win the last two games, I think Ben will believe.

671
00:32:42,599 --> 00:32:43,880

Speaker 3: Let's pick this.

719
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:53,599
Speaker 5: I'm getting so much trouble, especially after doing the current

720
00:34:54,159 --> 00:34:56,760
prank on my Instagram. And I did not pick the

721
00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:58,400
song fans. I was not the one, but I was

722
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:00,320
grooving and busting down in this studio.

723
00:35:00,679 --> 00:35:02,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, don't be a thought is uh you know?

724
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:10,079
Speaker 4: But anyway, all right, let's get into some cougar sports contents,

725
00:35:10,159 --> 00:35:12,920
shall we. Lots of news and notes coming out of

726
00:35:13,039 --> 00:35:17,280
Brigham Young University. I do want to give big cougar

727
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:21,280
war to Jack Kelly if I may. Jack Kelly balled

728
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:24,719
out at the NFL Combine ran a four five seven forty.

729
00:35:25,199 --> 00:35:28,079
Speaker 3: He had a ten to five broad jump. Uh.

730
00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 4: He had a seven point one two three cone and

731
00:35:32,119 --> 00:35:34,840
a four point one nine pro agility.

732
00:35:35,039 --> 00:35:38,280
Speaker 3: Man, I don't know really if he could.

733
00:35:38,119 --> 00:35:41,599
Speaker 4: Have done any better in any one of these these

734
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:44,880
uh these individual events. Uh.

735
00:35:45,079 --> 00:35:47,239
Speaker 3: His raw score off the charts.

736
00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:51,239
Speaker 4: He's top sixty all time in raw athletics score per

737
00:35:51,559 --> 00:35:53,079
Matt or Matt Platty.

738
00:35:53,679 --> 00:35:56,320
Speaker 3: Uh the math bomb who created.

739
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:58,519
Speaker 4: Relative of Athletics where he's got data going all back

740
00:35:58,559 --> 00:36:01,880
to nineteen eighty seven, at all the NFL combines from

741
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:05,840
all the NFL combines and Pro Day, so pretty impressive work.

742
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:07,920
Speaker 3: Did you did we think that he was this athletic?

743
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:10,960
Speaker 4: Did we think the Juggernaut was this athletic that he

744
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:12,440
would be a top sixty all time.

745
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:18,400
Speaker 3: Linebacker edge in the NFL combine? We call him the Juggernaut,

746
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:18,679
don't we.

747
00:36:19,599 --> 00:36:21,599
Speaker 4: What I'm getting at is like I thought he was athletic,

748
00:36:21,679 --> 00:36:23,119
and I thought he would like you guys heard me.

749
00:36:23,159 --> 00:36:24,760
I'm like, he's gonna improve his draft stock. I was

750
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:27,559
pretty consistent that I didn't know he'd be top sixty

751
00:36:27,599 --> 00:36:31,079
all time. It does feel like over three thy two

752
00:36:31,199 --> 00:36:32,320
hundred names of.

753
00:36:32,599 --> 00:36:33,559
Speaker 2: H that's crazy. I didn't think that.

754
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:35,800
Speaker 3: You know, you guys who go to the combine like

755
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:37,039
they just do well.

756
00:36:37,119 --> 00:36:40,519
Speaker 6: Like remember when Blake Freeland like basically shattered records for

757
00:36:40,599 --> 00:36:41,199
offensive life.

758
00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:42,079
Speaker 3: Yeah, Blake did good.

759
00:36:42,679 --> 00:36:43,920
Speaker 4: He had like a I want to say, he had

760
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:46,559
like a thirty six thirty seven eight vertical at six eight,

761
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:48,400
three hundred and twenty pounds or something like that.

762
00:36:48,519 --> 00:36:50,519
Speaker 3: That's absurd stuff. Freak man.

763
00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:54,599
Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel like the I think BYU players get

764
00:36:54,639 --> 00:36:56,320
a bad rap for not being athletic.

765
00:36:56,599 --> 00:36:57,440
Speaker 3: I wonder why that is.

766
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:01,719
Speaker 4: I don't know, what do you think they're like they're

767
00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:04,760
just lunch pale guys, the lunch pail guys, Christine type

768
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:07,599
of guys, hardest worker on the field, those type of guys.

769
00:37:07,639 --> 00:37:10,000
Speaker 3: Maybe maybe that's why they don't they but they have

770
00:37:10,119 --> 00:37:13,000
old man's strength. Yeah, and they have kids and the strollers.

771
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:17,519
The competitive advantage with the with the strollers in their car.

772
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:26,119
Bill self, oh man, just crazy crazy anyway. So I

773
00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:27,039
thought he'd do well.

774
00:37:27,119 --> 00:37:29,480
Speaker 4: I didn't think he'd do this well, like I thought

775
00:37:29,519 --> 00:37:33,119
he'd do well, but top sixty, I didn't know he

776
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:37,159
was that fast, that quick side to side.

777
00:37:37,519 --> 00:37:39,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, that may be the most surprising.

778
00:37:40,039 --> 00:37:41,880
Speaker 4: I thought he would do well in the forty as

779
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:43,559
I mentioned, I thought he could go. I think he could,

780
00:37:44,039 --> 00:37:47,440
you know, get sub for six, which he did, and

781
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:50,119
that correlates with his top end speeding.

782
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:50,320
Speaker 3: His get off.

783
00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:52,559
Speaker 4: Like I thought he'd do well in the vert like

784
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:54,440
I honestly, the vert, I thought he would be like

785
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:56,880
thirty three, thirty four, not thirty seven.

786
00:37:57,119 --> 00:37:57,880
Speaker 3: That's tremendous.

787
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:03,440
Speaker 4: And then ten five broad that's really good. I would

788
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:06,159
have said, probably in the low tens or right at ten.

789
00:38:07,199 --> 00:38:13,760
So Philicie, that is mister Jack Juggernaut Kelly really good performance,

790
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:16,719
and I think he improved his draft stock by a

791
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:21,400
day uh in maybe a few rounds. So I can't

792
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,320
wait to see what happens with Jack Kelly having improved

793
00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:28,000
his draft stock. I mean, what's crazy is I think

794
00:38:28,039 --> 00:38:32,760
that the insane thing is that I don't even know

795
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:34,760
if he was top ten in the forty from the

796
00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:35,920
edge and linebackers.

797
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:41,679
Speaker 3: I mean he was. He was good. He was. He

798
00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:47,039
was he top ten in the in the in the forty, Yes,

799
00:38:47,079 --> 00:38:48,320
he was, he was. He was top ten.

800
00:38:48,679 --> 00:38:51,199
Speaker 4: I was like, looking at it, Okay, so sunny styles.

801
00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:55,039
R Vel Reese both ran a four four six, Caleb

802
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:59,239
alarms Or ran a four four seven, Anthony Hill Junior

803
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:05,079
ran a four five one. Kyle Lewis and nomdi Obea

804
00:39:05,199 --> 00:39:09,760
Zor ran a four to five to three. Carson Sharrar

805
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:13,960
ran a four to five to six, Justin Jefferson, Jack

806
00:39:14,079 --> 00:39:17,800
Kelly and Jacob Rodriguez ran a four five seven, So

807
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:20,440
he was like tied for like seven to eighth, right,

808
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:23,400
so he's in the top ten.

809
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,519
Speaker 3: He was, like, you know, right in there. So that's awesome.

810
00:39:26,639 --> 00:39:28,000
Top ten linebacker edge.

811
00:39:28,119 --> 00:39:31,400
Speaker 4: Jacob Rodriguez also, U, I mean, obviously a great player

812
00:39:31,519 --> 00:39:33,480
now Jacob was a little bit better than the three cone.

813
00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:36,800
He had the best three cone, uh and and he

814
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,199
had a thirty eight and a half inch vertical Jacob

815
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:39,920
Rodriguez had.

816
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:43,400
Speaker 3: How insane? Is that insane?

817
00:39:43,559 --> 00:39:46,199
Speaker 4: The member shout out to uh yeah in the six

818
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:50,360
nine three cone, which is tremendous between the pro agility

819
00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:53,920
four one nine six nine zero thirty eight and a

820
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:54,599
half inch vertical.

821
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:57,719
Speaker 3: These are good numbers for safeties, guys. These are good numbers.

822
00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:02,599
Speaker 4: Like that's a good it's a solid number for like

823
00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:07,039
a long at like long corner, you know, not necessarily

824
00:40:07,039 --> 00:40:09,480
like a bump and run you know, ten five, you

825
00:40:09,559 --> 00:40:12,679
know four four four four three corner, but like a

826
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:20,440
playmaking corner, like a big bodied corner. Anyway, I want

827
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:22,239
to talk to you guys about this with springball. Now,

828
00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:23,440
let me transition here.

829
00:40:24,639 --> 00:40:25,480
Speaker 3: If there was a.

830
00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 4: Former BYU football safety that you could choose from that

831
00:40:31,159 --> 00:40:34,079
played in the NFL to come back and coach at

832
00:40:34,159 --> 00:40:35,920
BYU this year, who would it be and why?

833
00:40:36,199 --> 00:40:38,440
Speaker 3: The reason why I'm bringing this up is my concern.

834
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:42,400
Speaker 4: Yesterday we talked about our concerns heading into springball, right,

835
00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:44,519
I said, okay, if I have any concerns I'm like, Okay,

836
00:40:44,519 --> 00:40:46,920
I don't I don't know Damrio Warren, I have trusted him.

837
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:48,519
I don't know Lewis Clark, I don't know. I don't

838
00:40:48,559 --> 00:40:51,320
know what the secondary is going to look like. J Hill,

839
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:58,559
Gavin Fowler, and uh Gennar Guildford. Your entire secondary coaches,

840
00:40:58,679 --> 00:41:02,239
they're gone. He's at Michigan, Gennor's at Michigan, and Gavin's

841
00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:03,000
at Weaver State.

842
00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:07,519
Speaker 3: Okay, So if you're talking about drop off, even though.

843
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:10,119
Speaker 4: You didn't lose guys, you didn't lose the personnel, you

844
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:13,920
lost coaches. How good will the secondary be and how

845
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:17,440
can you maybe backfill some of those positions and make

846
00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:19,760
sure guys are happy, feel like they're getting developed, they're

847
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:23,280
getting they're getting better technique wise. Who would it be

848
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:25,159
and why that you could bring in from the NFL

849
00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:30,920
or formerly of the NFL and uh maybe mentor these

850
00:41:31,199 --> 00:41:33,400
these young bucks in the secondary. Because you got Raider,

851
00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:36,800
you got Fola, Tile, you got Tommy, you got Cannon Debrees.

852
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:38,800
I think moving back to safety, you got a lot

853
00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:40,840
of you got a lot of guys back there that

854
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:41,880
need some mentorship.

855
00:41:45,079 --> 00:41:46,039
Speaker 3: I put out a poll.

856
00:41:46,159 --> 00:41:48,840
Speaker 4: These are the four options that I gave you Aaron

857
00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:53,519
Francisco Dog played in the league for a while Indianapolis Colts,

858
00:41:53,599 --> 00:41:58,639
Arizona Cardinals. Andrew Rich played for the Arizona Cardinals. Danny

859
00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:03,280
Sorenson played for most recently the Northern Saints, also with

860
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:06,199
Kansas City. Undrafted free agent played in the league for

861
00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:09,360
a bit really good player. Kai Nakua has played in

862
00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:13,239
the NFL. Eventually moved to linebacker, but was one of

863
00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:16,239
the best safeties in BLEA football history. Who do you

864
00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:17,480
got out of those four?

865
00:42:17,679 --> 00:42:22,320
Speaker 3: And why? Ah? This is not what I have thought

866
00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:24,519
a lot about. To be quite honest with you, I'd

867
00:42:24,639 --> 00:42:29,760
probably go Sorenson just because.

868
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:34,960
Speaker 4: That guy feels like he extended his career a lot

869
00:42:35,079 --> 00:42:39,519
longer than he should have. But he played pretty deep

870
00:42:39,639 --> 00:42:43,719
into his age, Yeah, which tells you like he he

871
00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:46,760
didn't rely on his athleticism to be successful, like he

872
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:49,679
relied on technique and reading the game and reading the field.

873
00:42:50,159 --> 00:42:55,039
So would probably be Sorenson for me. Danny Sowrenson coming

874
00:42:55,079 --> 00:42:58,079
in on my Poll of the Day at seventy point

875
00:42:58,199 --> 00:42:59,239
six percent.

876
00:43:00,639 --> 00:43:02,400
Speaker 3: As a favorite. Ronnie, is that where you stand too?

877
00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:02,679
Speaker 2: Yeah?

878
00:43:02,679 --> 00:43:04,719
Speaker 3: That guy?

879
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:08,880
Speaker 5: Look it's tough, right because the answer is gonna be

880
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:11,719
Danny Swarnson, But I wish you could have a mixture

881
00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:14,960
been because if you're taking the two type of safeties,

882
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:17,559
that b what you has in the free in the

883
00:43:17,639 --> 00:43:20,559
strong safety room, it's Danny Swarrenson and kind of Kua

884
00:43:21,119 --> 00:43:22,800
Kai just wasn't a ball hawk. You got guys in

885
00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:25,840
their safety room who are ball hawks, right, volatile ballhawk.

886
00:43:26,079 --> 00:43:28,960
But he also can light you up like Kai Nakool

887
00:43:29,079 --> 00:43:31,239
Like he can lower his shoulder if he wants and

888
00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:34,840
blow yo, you know what up. But you got guys

889
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:38,559
like you know, Dirty dam who are very technical, right,

890
00:43:38,679 --> 00:43:40,239
watch a lot of tape, watch a lot of film,

891
00:43:40,559 --> 00:43:42,760
don't get beat like Tommy tommikin lit would don't want

892
00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:44,360
to say that he can, but you're not gonna beat him.

893
00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:46,599
His technique is forwark, his hips place, you know, his

894
00:43:46,679 --> 00:43:47,840
speed is iq ability.

895
00:43:48,079 --> 00:43:49,840
Speaker 2: You got a mixture between those two. So it's those

896
00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:50,360
two for me.

897
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:52,719
Speaker 5: I know people probably gonna go with Danie Swarnsaw, which

898
00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:54,519
is not a bad answer but at all. But I

899
00:43:54,559 --> 00:43:57,280
think kind of Koa in the college game. I think

900
00:43:57,440 --> 00:43:59,039
just the type of football he player was that was

901
00:43:59,039 --> 00:44:01,400
a great football player, and I think those two could

902
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:03,599
coach up because I see their skill sets the most

903
00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:05,119
in this BYU safety room.

904
00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:07,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, look, there's no wrong answer here.

905
00:44:09,159 --> 00:44:10,599
Speaker 4: I think there'd be a lot of people that would

906
00:44:10,639 --> 00:44:12,719
love to see kind of Kua with his experience in

907
00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:16,639
the Dakua family. You got Tay there, Puka, you know,

908
00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:19,519
bring back into Kua, keep keep them connected to BYU,

909
00:44:19,639 --> 00:44:20,079
et cetera.

910
00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:22,559
Speaker 3: But the favorite right now is Danny Sorenson.

911
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:24,119
Speaker 4: I don't think you can go wrong in any of

912
00:44:24,199 --> 00:44:27,440
these any of these fronts, but Danny would.

913
00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:27,719
Speaker 3: Be a boon.

914
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:29,480
Speaker 4: And now, like the reason why I bring this up

915
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:31,159
because I've been here in rumblings that there could be

916
00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:33,599
a former BYU safety that has played in the NFL

917
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:35,440
that's coming back to coach at b YU.

918
00:44:35,519 --> 00:44:36,320
Speaker 3: I don't know what role.

919
00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:38,199
Speaker 4: I don't know what a fashion. I don't know if

920
00:44:38,239 --> 00:44:41,360
it's just kind of being around the program. But could

921
00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:44,760
be a mentor, could be a developer, could be a

922
00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:49,079
boon for BYU this twenty twenty six season.

923
00:44:49,639 --> 00:44:53,639
Speaker 3: So it would be fantastic to have that.

924
00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:57,760
Speaker 4: Just from a credibility standpoint, Like some some players like

925
00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:01,400
to really focus on their individual deve development outside of

926
00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:04,599
the scheme. You got your scheme obviously, and then you

927
00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:09,400
have your your individual development and how you execute that scheme,

928
00:45:09,519 --> 00:45:12,960
how you execute your technique. You need both as well

929
00:45:13,039 --> 00:45:18,159
as great strengthening conditioning, mobility pliability to maximize your athleticism

930
00:45:18,519 --> 00:45:22,159
as a defensive back being a multidirectional backwards runner, that's

931
00:45:22,199 --> 00:45:24,119
what you are. You're moving side to side of backwards

932
00:45:24,159 --> 00:45:27,400
more than you're running forward typically, So you got to

933
00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:29,960
have it dialed. You got to have it pristine. Guys,

934
00:45:30,039 --> 00:45:32,039

965
00:46:56,559 --> 00:47:01,239
Congrats to Wes Johnson. Wesley Johnson he has been named

966
00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:05,679
the assistant cornerbacks coach next to Lewis Clark, so that

967
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:08,599
was a nice retention to remember. Evan Johnson is the

968
00:47:08,679 --> 00:47:11,480
younger brother of Wes Johnson. Wes Johnson has been i

969
00:47:11,519 --> 00:47:14,079
think a graduate assistant maybe analysts the last couple of

970
00:47:14,199 --> 00:47:17,559
years at BYU, and so Wes Johnson I'm sure played

971
00:47:18,119 --> 00:47:21,519
his expanded role and being there at BYU maybe he

972
00:47:21,599 --> 00:47:26,119
had played has played a role in retaining Evan Johnson.

973
00:47:26,519 --> 00:47:30,840
So big news for BYU and congrats to Wes Johnson

974
00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:32,679
I'm being named cornerbacks coach.

975
00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:34,719
Speaker 3: Obviously, today is the first day of spring bals.

976
00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:36,800
Speaker 4: We'll probably find out a little bit more about this

977
00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:40,039
BA Cougar football team and the coaching staff here in

978
00:47:40,119 --> 00:47:41,360

979
00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:44,199
Speaker 3: And another thing I thought was interesting.

00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:49,679
Speaker 4: BA Football posted about two days ago that they are

Speaker 3: Submit film asaptop.

994
00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:38,800
Speaker 4: Punter and long snapper will have the opportunity to join

995
00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:43,239
the team for springball beginning Friday, February twenty seven.

996
00:48:44,159 --> 00:48:46,679
Speaker 3: They get to be there today. Man, the best punch everything.

997
00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:48,079
It's like a dream come true.

998
00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:50,679
Speaker 4: Like some like high school long snapper, high school punter.

999
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:53,840
That thought is his football career was done. He got

1000
00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:55,239
into BYU and he's like.

1001
00:48:56,199 --> 00:48:59,840
Speaker 3: Wait a second, there's tryouts, that's go. Let's go.

1002
00:49:00,079 --> 00:49:02,679
Speaker 4: Oh could you imagine, Like let me say you were

1003
00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:04,880
you were a really really good basketball player. You're like,

1004
00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:08,320
you know, you try out, maybe you make the team.

1005
00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:13,360
Maybe you're Jared McGregor just getting buckets on the on

1006
00:49:13,519 --> 00:49:17,360
Aja Bonsa and rob Ryde and Richie. You're like, I'm

1007
00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:20,239
the fourteenth leading scorer on this bou basketball team, You

1008
00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:24,239
son of a motherless go fourteenth. I'm actually I'm ranked.

1009
00:49:24,280 --> 00:49:26,719
Speaker 3: Baby. Did you see the Jared McGregor highlight film. By

1010
00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:29,719
the way, it's pretty good. He's got a really quick release.

1011
00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:36,480
Good shoar. We want McGregor. We want McGregor anyway.

1012
00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:41,400
Speaker 4: And then also from a scheduling standpoint, this is something

1013
00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:42,760
that we put out just a little bit ago.

1014
00:49:43,599 --> 00:49:46,199
Speaker 3: I think ESPN has.

1015
00:49:46,159 --> 00:49:50,159
Speaker 4: Prognosticated the biggest games on BYU football schedule, all team schedules, right,

1016
00:49:50,599 --> 00:49:53,320
he's been doing every powerful team's most of fighting game

1017
00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:58,559
for twenty twenty six. BYUS is Notre Dame, the fighting

1018
00:49:58,599 --> 00:50:01,239
Iris is what they had to say October versus Notre Dame.

1019
00:50:01,519 --> 00:50:03,760
If BOA wants to prove it belongs with the big boys,

1020
00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:06,800
this is as close to a must win game as

1021
00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:10,960
it will play. It would have been an appetizing consolation

1022
00:50:11,079 --> 00:50:14,239
Bowl game last season after both teams narrowly missed the playoff,

1023
00:50:14,559 --> 00:50:18,159
but here it could serve as a potential springboard to

1024
00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:19,719
the playoff in twenty twenty six.

1025
00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:22,360
Speaker 3: That's Kyle Bondagura. Any other thoughts there.

1026
00:50:22,719 --> 00:50:25,760
Speaker 4: If BYU wants to prove it belongs with the big boys, Okay,

1027
00:50:26,119 --> 00:50:26,920
well that just that.

1028
00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:29,039
Speaker 3: Just tell me what your bias is. Go look at

1029
00:50:29,079 --> 00:50:31,400
Klawne's record over the last five years. Go look at

1030
00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:31,639
the fact.

1031
00:50:31,639 --> 00:50:33,000
Speaker 4: To BO, he has been the first team to not

1032
00:50:33,079 --> 00:50:35,519
make the playoffs last couple of years. Just just tell

1033
00:50:35,599 --> 00:50:39,559
me what your bias is, brother, Kyle. I'm offended. I

1034
00:50:39,679 --> 00:50:41,119
am offended. How dare you?

1035
00:50:41,400 --> 00:50:43,079
Speaker 3: He is right though? If you o he wins that game,

1036
00:50:43,119 --> 00:50:45,360
it's like a springboard in the playoffs. It's a big one. Yeah,

1037
00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:47,719
it's a big one. You know, it's a big one.

1038
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:49,960
It would actually only count as a quality loss for

1039
00:50:50,039 --> 00:50:52,119
Notre Dame, and Bo you would be left out, sorry, exactly.

1040
00:50:52,639 --> 00:50:55,239
Speaker 4: Quality loss for Notre Dame, though fire riers would be

1041
00:50:55,519 --> 00:50:59,840
you know, quality loss, very quality loss, the most quality loss.

1042
00:51:00,079 --> 00:51:00,960
Speaker 3: Alright, guys, that's our
