Speaker 1: Yeah.

64
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,759
Speaker 5: Hey, I talked yesterday about I wasn't sure if it

65
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:44,759
was gonna be a toe tap or a baptism kind

66
00:02:44,759 --> 00:02:46,439
of experience that I can tell you. I was fully

67
00:02:46,479 --> 00:02:50,360
emerged yesterday, so one might say I was baptized. I'll

68
00:02:50,439 --> 00:02:52,199
leave that up to you, But no, I'm happy to

69
00:02:52,199 --> 00:02:54,479
be here again, happy to chat Cougar sports. I'm nothing

70
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,479
better to do third day in our time than to

71
00:02:56,479 --> 00:02:59,199
talk to Kubernation about what we love most. I better

72
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,919
say you love family and our wives that are but

73
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:04,199
the sports teams that we love the most?

74
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 4: How about say that?

75
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,199
Speaker 3: Yeah. I always say that my wife loves the Lord

76
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:08,960
more than me, and a lot of people may look sideways,

77
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:10,560
and it's like, no, that's the truth. You want someone

78
00:03:10,599 --> 00:03:13,080
that actually is a god fearing woman or man that

79
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,800
puts them first. Since she does, that's how our householders run.

80
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,039
Always reminds me of that. And then you know, obviously

81
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,120
I come second. We got the little one, drowsy you

82
00:03:20,199 --> 00:03:22,000
as well, you know, you got the kiddos. But hey,

83
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,319
the family is important, and then obviously sports is just

84
00:03:24,319 --> 00:03:26,400
we get to do this, you know, for for fun.

85
00:03:26,439 --> 00:03:28,240
We say fun. It is a job, it is our career,

86
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,120
it is what we do. But in the same breath,

87
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:31,840
with all that being said, that the real things that

88
00:03:32,159 --> 00:03:35,759
matter in life our family, you know, I think about it.

89
00:03:35,879 --> 00:03:38,840
In April it'll be three years since my dad had

90
00:03:38,879 --> 00:03:40,719
passed away from a heart attack. I don't know if

91
00:03:40,719 --> 00:03:42,960
I've shared that with the I know Vic knows, but

92
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,639
you just you think about obviously, you know what matters

93
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:48,159
most in life, and it's the people that you go

94
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,199
home to as the people that are in your support system.

95
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,879
My dad never had an opportunity to partake of the

96
00:03:52,879 --> 00:03:54,639
Gospel here on this earth, and then was able to

97
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,879
do that work for him, you know, through through the

98
00:03:57,879 --> 00:04:00,000
beliefs that we have, and everything was a very spirit

99
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,039
your experience that I have, and I keep that to

100
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:03,599
myself and I've been able to journal about that. So

101
00:04:03,759 --> 00:04:07,080
just always gonna reminder, look, p Yu loses tomorrow, the

102
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:08,919
sky isn't falling. You still get to go to church,

103
00:04:08,919 --> 00:04:11,319
you still get through New Year covenants. Or you're of

104
00:04:11,319 --> 00:04:14,639
another faith. You know, people of other faiths, whether you're Muslim, Jewish,

105
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:16,319
we all get to pray to a higher power. And

106
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,720
I believe that, so appreciate you mentioning that. Yeah, but

107
00:04:18,759 --> 00:04:21,079
sports also do matter. You know, it's fun to have that, so.

108
00:04:21,319 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 5: I know, I appreciate I appreciate you bringing that up.

109
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:24,600
Of course, I'm just gonna interject a little bit there

110
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,600
too and say that you know, I'm still a.

111
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 4: Relatively young individual.

112
00:04:28,879 --> 00:04:32,040
Speaker 5: I'm twenty eight years old, but able to be lucky

113
00:04:32,079 --> 00:04:33,800
and blessed to have three beautiful children on my own

114
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:34,720
that I share with my wife.

115
00:04:35,319 --> 00:04:37,279
Speaker 4: Just a wonderful mother to them. And I love that

116
00:04:37,319 --> 00:04:38,480
you bring that up right, Like.

117
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 5: Obviously we are very passionate about what we do, very

118
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,360
passionate about Cougar sports. It's very tough when the coops lose.

119
00:04:44,399 --> 00:04:46,199
I know we all take that, take that to heart

120
00:04:46,199 --> 00:04:49,279
as Kugar Nation as a whole. But just being being

121
00:04:49,319 --> 00:04:51,439
there and being present for those three young boys we

122
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,160
just we've got I got to give them a quick

123
00:04:53,199 --> 00:04:55,199
shout out. Weve got Benny who just turned four in August,

124
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,920
we got Dawson, and then we got a little baby Cason.

125
00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,040
Speaker 4: Who was just really born in November.

126
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,480
Speaker 5: So just being there and showing up for those boys,

127
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,399
don not taking it too hard, feeling that emotion, but

128
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,360
still being happy and present for those boys that don't

129
00:05:07,439 --> 00:05:10,399
understand exactly. They'll understand one day how it feels to

130
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,480
have that heartbreak from sports. Is those cardiac cubes will

131
00:05:13,519 --> 00:05:15,199
keep that running for years and years, I'm sure. But

132
00:05:16,079 --> 00:05:18,560
like you said, the family and faith very happy to

133
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,879
be blessed with with wonderful, wonderful situations.

134
00:05:21,959 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 3: Both of those appreciate you showing up and showing out.

135
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,160
We got Caleb Lyons our other co hosts don't want

136
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:27,639
to say his name when we give him the proper

137
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:29,920
introduction when he gets here, but he will be joining

138
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,920
the program as well. Give you maybe a little tease

139
00:05:32,959 --> 00:05:34,959
of who it is. I have the bon Jovi cuta.

140
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:36,439
I'm just kidding. I'm not gonna do that to him.

141
00:05:36,439 --> 00:05:38,199
Three times in a row. I told him I wouldn't

142
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,319
do it. I don't want him to get upset. I

143
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,399
don't like to make him mad. But maybe that's the

144
00:05:42,439 --> 00:05:43,759
tease of who it is. I need to get the Trump.

145
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:45,480
It's actually ready for when he does he get here,

146
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,439
you know, because he said he wanted that Injro. He's like,

147
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,399
why can't I get the Trump? It's like Darnell Dixon.

148
00:05:50,639 --> 00:05:52,120
So I want to make him happy, but he'll join

149
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,279
us later. Our second co host appreciate both you guys

150
00:05:54,319 --> 00:05:55,920
showing up and showing out, Like I said Vic Graham

151
00:05:55,959 --> 00:05:59,360
on the data aggregation, Brett always bringing the hammer. Check

152
00:05:59,399 --> 00:06:01,480
out the rest of our ESPN the fan started align

153
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:03,279
up for you guys. So we're gonna discuss and break

154
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,120
down the matchup between Kansas basketball and the nitty gritty.

155
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:07,560
Like I said in our Band of the Day, Question

156
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,199
of the Day, we'll discuss BYU football running back news.

157
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,600
There's a certain guy that's enrolled the BAU back from

158
00:06:12,639 --> 00:06:15,399
his mission. Can that help BYU? The mission legs are

159
00:06:15,399 --> 00:06:18,759
a real thing, they are, but BAU need to step

160
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,480
in this running back LJ. Martin and Bear Bachmer cannot

161
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:25,879
do this by themselves. They just can't. I thought they

162
00:06:25,879 --> 00:06:28,240
were gonna go get a guy from a portal been

163
00:06:28,439 --> 00:06:31,639
discussed last week or the week before. Having Miles Davis

164
00:06:31,639 --> 00:06:33,480
really could have helped BYU as you look back at it.

165
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,040
That's why you have to reevaluate the season. It's crazy,

166
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,439
but BYU had a phenomenal season. We're gonna disus and

167
00:06:38,439 --> 00:06:40,399
I'm gonna give you guys all the news and notes

168
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,399
recapping the twenty twenty five season. It was a great one.

169
00:06:43,439 --> 00:06:46,000
I know BA was left out of the college football playoffs,

170
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,879
but nonetheless, you can't take advantage of double digit win

171
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,279
seasons twelve one seasons, the first time that has happened

172
00:06:51,319 --> 00:06:54,040
since the early two thousands. That's a good football program

173
00:06:54,079 --> 00:06:56,600
led by one Kaloniy Sataki. I know a lot of people,

174
00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:59,439
you know, Jay Hill's gone, Ope Gennaro with them to

175
00:06:59,439 --> 00:07:02,160
double Minority. All of that will be impactful in some

176
00:07:02,199 --> 00:07:04,079
shape or form. But they hired a great guy in

177
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,720
Kelly Papega. They really did. But the most important to

178
00:07:06,759 --> 00:07:09,600
retain the head of the snake in Kalonie Sataki. This

179
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,399
culture is still set. That you show that of all

180
00:07:12,439 --> 00:07:14,240
the people coming back now, they are going to probably

181
00:07:14,279 --> 00:07:16,519
lose a lot of people after the following season is over.

182
00:07:16,519 --> 00:07:18,199
I know I'm jumping a way ahead, but the reason

183
00:07:18,279 --> 00:07:21,360
why you got those guys back is because of Klinie Sataki,

184
00:07:21,399 --> 00:07:23,240
the man, the myth, the legend, the guy that wants

185
00:07:23,279 --> 00:07:24,720
to be here forever. And I'm gonna play a little

186
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,720
clip from they put a video out. Maybe i'll play

187
00:07:27,759 --> 00:07:30,000
here in the nitty gritty, but they played. They put

188
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,399
together a video of the twenty twenty three season, excuse me,

189
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,439
twenty five season of everything that occurred, and Kalanie talked

190
00:07:35,439 --> 00:07:37,800
about I love you know, being your coach and all

191
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,839
of this, and if you haven't seen it, it could

192
00:07:39,839 --> 00:07:42,160
make you a little bit emotional. It's definitely I felt

193
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,920
like Kilani got emotional in the moment. But look, it's

194
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,920
really tough to find, hard to find good coaches, and

195
00:07:48,959 --> 00:07:51,839
when they leave, it breaks the program. And the reason

196
00:07:51,879 --> 00:07:53,079
why I bring it up, if you're looking at the

197
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,639
Big twelve and watch Iowa State under Matt Campbell's a

198
00:07:55,639 --> 00:07:57,959
phenomenal program. Kansas State could not beat them. They have

199
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,839
their fits. Matt Campbell into a couple of Big Told championship,

200
00:08:00,879 --> 00:08:03,680
I'm pretty sure, and turned that program around. Most double

201
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,639
digituins is on their head coach, and then you know

202
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,800
gets the job of Penn State obviously because Colonne didn't

203
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,240
get it well deserved. Matt Campbell's a great coach, he

204
00:08:11,279 --> 00:08:14,639
had NFL jobs were interviewing him, and then Rockobec and

205
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:16,920
you know Hanson, they both leave, They both up and

206
00:08:16,959 --> 00:08:18,920
leave and go to a Penn State as well as

207
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,879
a multitude of other guys. That's the impact in college athletics.

208
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:26,759
College head coaches and programs that have these special individuals,

209
00:08:26,759 --> 00:08:29,319
they impact these youth, They impact these young men, and

210
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,360
you see that now Iowa States in the rebuild mode.

211
00:08:31,639 --> 00:08:33,360
And look that happens at everything. But you have to

212
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,159
be grateful because that could have been be why you

213
00:08:35,279 --> 00:08:36,799
Klanie could have been out the door to Penn State.

214
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,080
J Hill probably would have followed, and who else could

215
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,960
have gone? Like I believe if Colonie's not if Colonie

216
00:08:42,039 --> 00:08:43,480
was not retained and j Hill would have win and

217
00:08:43,519 --> 00:08:45,360
staff would have been you know, taken as well, you

218
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,519
would have not gotten back to the Evan Johnson's. You

219
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,000
might not have gotten back to Trey Alexanders. And I

220
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,159
know Trey Sam, I'm here to stay, you know, until

221
00:08:53,399 --> 00:08:55,159
you know, until it's over what I'm not going anywhere.

222
00:08:55,159 --> 00:08:57,399
But if your whole coaching staff leaves, all the people

223
00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:59,279
that took a chance on you are are you are

224
00:08:59,279 --> 00:09:01,120
you gonna follow them? I A you gonna say that's tough.

225
00:09:01,159 --> 00:09:03,120
You never know, it could have been ever we could

226
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,960
have stayed. But I'm just I'm presenting conversation of that.

227
00:09:06,039 --> 00:09:09,200
Does volatile South Tuala State, Does Keanu Tanavasa stare? Does

228
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:10,840
he take his last year and go to a Big

229
00:09:10,879 --> 00:09:13,120
ten program and play, you know, at the next level?

230
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,600
Does ig comeback? I believe Iji could play at the

231
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,039
Michigan's of the Penn States. Just you know, Jack Kelly

232
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,320
was out of eligibility. Do you get the kid uluaves

233
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,279
to come in or do they go and follow the

234
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:23,840
point of what I'm bringing in is that I'm on

235
00:09:23,879 --> 00:09:27,480
this tangent to begin the show. Is the higher of

236
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:31,000
the Excuse me. The retention of Kline Sataki is everything

237
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,320
for this BAU football program. However long he wants to go,

238
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,759
whether he wants to go another five years, ten, you know,

239
00:09:35,799 --> 00:09:38,480
get up there like Kyle Whittingham. It doesn't matter. BAU

240
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,519
football will be forever in a great place because you

241
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,440
have Kilane Sataki at the helm and I firmly believe that.

242
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,879
So good job on them. We'll discuss some of that

243
00:09:46,919 --> 00:09:48,799
the rest of our ESPN. The fans started lining up

244
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,559
at three oh five. We'll get into the Kevin Young sound.

245
00:09:51,519 --> 00:09:53,759
He addressed the media early, was on that zoom call.

246
00:09:53,919 --> 00:09:56,960
In preparation for this Kansas BYU game, big matchup. BA

247
00:09:57,039 --> 00:09:59,159
needs to quad one win a road more than poorly.

248
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,519
They just need to bounce back. But Kevin Young has

249
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:03,879
been able to bounce back after losses this season. Can

250
00:10:03,879 --> 00:10:07,240
they go into fagallen Field House, Can they go into

251
00:10:07,279 --> 00:10:10,399
what matter, into into the place that what is gonna have?

252
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,519
I think it's thousandth game. Man, that's history right there.

253
00:10:13,519 --> 00:10:16,639
The number, the projected number one overall pick Darren Peterson,

254
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,559
the projected number two. Aj De Bonsa going at it.

255
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,320
I believe as it should be the number one. But

256
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:23,799
those guys tomorrow that will be the game game day,

257
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,519
is there. I talked to a Kansas insider earlier this morning.

258
00:10:27,519 --> 00:10:29,279
We'll get on the show this afternoon. You hear from

259
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,720
them in our five thirty segment, but at four or

260
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,840
five will have Steve Clements. He's gonna discuss this. I

261
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,320
saw this yesterday and we discussed this with Caleb. I'll

262
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,399
get our of the co hosts who I heard I

263
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,480
heard the headset pick up, so I'll get his thoughts

264
00:10:40,519 --> 00:10:42,600
maybe on this, and then the running back that's back

265
00:10:42,639 --> 00:10:46,159
from BYU as well. But the targeting call, should it

266
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,080
be adjusted? It's not going to go away with but

267
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,679
should it be adjusted? Discussed this a little bit yesterday

268
00:10:51,159 --> 00:10:53,960
and no one cares until it affects your program. But Lucas,

269
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,600
Alexander Lucas, I'm pretty sure that's name had to sit

270
00:10:56,639 --> 00:10:59,080
out in that game, that first half game for Miami,

271
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,039
and then in the second half he didn't, and you

272
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:03,320
started to see how the game changed, how close it got,

273
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,720
how adjustments in Miami was able to make. So that's

274
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,559
a good question of should it be should it be different?

275
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,000
Brian Logan said he doesn't disagree with the fact if

276
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:11,720
you find players you go to the NFL, well, you

277
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:13,919
don't kick players out. So I asked Steve his thoughts

278
00:11:13,919 --> 00:11:16,039
on that. Will also get his thoughts on should the

279
00:11:16,039 --> 00:11:18,279
college football expand? It sounded like they were ready to

280
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,039
go to sixteen, but the Big ten set let's go

281
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,399
to twenty four. I don't think the SEC wants that.

282
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,000
I think the SEC sees that the more teams that

283
00:11:25,039 --> 00:11:26,879
they allow in the playoffs, the less they'll have a

284
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,639
likelihood of winning. They just it's not the best football

285
00:11:30,639 --> 00:11:32,960
conference in America anymore. We'll discuss that at four five

286
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,440
at four thirty, going to welcome in Brett Always bringing

00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:55,440
get mad at me.

333
00:13:55,639 --> 00:13:58,799
Speaker 1: You don't watch the Super Bowl every year? Do you

334
00:13:58,879 --> 00:13:59,559
really do?

335
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,320
Speaker 3: You do you really want me to expose myself. I

336
00:14:01,519 --> 00:14:04,279
really want me to expose you. Yes, I will expose myself.

337
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,840
I go to parties, but if I'm not intrigued by

338
00:14:06,879 --> 00:14:10,440
the matchup, then I honestly, I'm in the back on

339
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,320
my phone, are talking to people. But you're still there, you, Yes,

340
00:14:13,399 --> 00:14:16,399
I'm still yes, I'm still Yeah. I'm not tuned in,

341
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,039
but I'm not like there's no like. I'm not as passionate.

342
00:14:19,279 --> 00:14:22,120
Speaker 1: So yes, okay, Well I watched the super Bowl every year.

343
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:25,919
It's basically national holiday, right it is, everybody's watching the

344
00:14:25,919 --> 00:14:28,519
super Bowl, growing to parties whatnot. So anyway, I have

345
00:14:28,519 --> 00:14:34,039
a sister, really good person, great family, all that. I

346
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,519
don't know a person who cares less about sports than

347
00:14:36,519 --> 00:14:40,600
my sister. So anyway, I get a I get an invitation,

348
00:14:40,759 --> 00:14:44,279
a Google invitation today, Hey, come to my daughter's baptism

349
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:45,200
four o'clock.

350
00:14:45,519 --> 00:14:50,480
Speaker 3: Oh no, oh no, oh no, he's conflicted.

351
00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:54,039
Speaker 1: Yes, So what do I do? What do I do?

352
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:54,960
I I told you.

353
00:14:54,919 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 3: You're gonna you're gonna ask the most. The the is

354
00:14:58,799 --> 00:15:00,960
the how do I say that without coming off or

355
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:04,960
in the wrong way. The very active LDS person that's

356
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:08,159
with the youth that is going around on Sundays, and

357
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,399
that is doing service stuff throughout the week at five

358
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:12,879
twelve and going to the bishop storehouse. And you're gonna

359
00:15:12,919 --> 00:15:15,000
ask me what to do. You shouldn't ask me that.

360
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:15,480
That's bad?

361
00:15:15,759 --> 00:15:16,639
Speaker 1: Is this? So you're gonna tell me.

362
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:18,519
Speaker 3: I'm gonna tell you to go to the Baptist But

363
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:20,080
can I also tell you what I would do as well?

364
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,080
Because look, I do both. I'm always gonna tell you

365
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:23,799
to pull up the game on your phone and be

366
00:15:23,879 --> 00:15:26,320
in the back, sit in the last row, because you're

367
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,679
quickly in, quickly out, no disrespect, quickly and quickly out.

368
00:15:29,799 --> 00:15:31,080
You know you're in the back. You're right there in

369
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,120
the white shirt and tie. You got the phone and

370
00:15:33,159 --> 00:15:34,879
you got you're not you don't have the headphone in,

371
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:36,759
but you got the phone on the lap and you're

372
00:15:36,759 --> 00:15:39,279
tuned in and you're doing double duty. So you're looking

373
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:41,360
at you're watching anybody listens to the program right now

374
00:15:41,559 --> 00:15:43,840
that comes at me and says you, no, don't do that,

375
00:15:43,919 --> 00:15:45,759
g man. They're lying to you because most of these

376
00:15:45,759 --> 00:15:48,279
people GM and either wouldn't go I'm serious, they wouldn't

377
00:15:48,279 --> 00:15:51,159
go to the baptism. Because every everybody on this program

378
00:15:51,279 --> 00:15:53,759
right now, Vic Caleb, you and me has been in

379
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:55,919
church at some point and has watched sports. Do not

380
00:15:56,039 --> 00:15:56,240
do it.

381
00:15:56,279 --> 00:15:56,840
Speaker 1: Every man that.

382
00:15:56,799 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 3: Listens to the program twenty five to sixty four has

383
00:15:59,639 --> 00:16:03,000
done that. You all play fantasy football. Don't do that.

384
00:16:03,279 --> 00:16:05,440
You watch the games while you watch church. So what

385
00:16:05,519 --> 00:16:07,480
I'm telling g Man ezactary, you go to the baptism,

386
00:16:07,559 --> 00:16:08,519
g Man, and you watch the game.

387
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,799
Speaker 1: Superhero's the thing, Roddie. The super Bowl is not so

388
00:16:11,879 --> 00:16:15,440
much about the game. It's the immersive experience. It's the commentary,

389
00:16:15,519 --> 00:16:18,519
it's it's the commercials, which aren't as good as they

390
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:19,039
used to be.

391
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,080
Speaker 3: Admitted this year, they're supposed to be supposed to be

392
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:25,200
like six or seven movies they're already releasing. This is true.

393
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:26,600
They are also doing that till you're not wrong.

394
00:16:26,759 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 1: I'll believe it when I see it. But I for me,

395
00:16:29,879 --> 00:16:33,440
and I don't like the super Bowl party either. I

396
00:16:33,759 --> 00:16:35,799
don't like it. And you're just with a bunch of people.

397
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:39,240
That is probably the first football game they've really watched

398
00:16:39,279 --> 00:16:43,440
all year. And because you know, I'm a newspaper radio guy,

399
00:16:43,519 --> 00:16:47,440
I know things, so they asked me questions and I

400
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:51,000
don't like that. I like watching the super Bowl by myself.

401
00:16:51,039 --> 00:16:52,879
Speaker 3: This is what bred Hammer likes. He's like, don't talk.

402
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:53,559
I just want.

403
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, Brett and I could watch the game together.

404
00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 3: Because we just you guys watch it with me too.

405
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:00,679
I I do like to watch the ball and need

406
00:17:00,679 --> 00:17:02,799
just to be quiet. But like that, I don't sit

407
00:17:02,879 --> 00:17:04,680
on the couch of people because people like, what was

408
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:05,160
that play called?

409
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 1: Right?

410
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:05,599
Speaker 4: You think?

411
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:07,079
Speaker 3: I know, I don't have the headset on what are

412
00:17:07,079 --> 00:17:07,640
you talking about.

413
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,640
Speaker 1: I'd definitely roll with you, Roddy, you know game and

414
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:11,559
you'd be fun and.

415
00:17:13,039 --> 00:17:14,400
Speaker 3: We can watch it without the sound too.

416
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:19,839
Speaker 1: Yeah. So, but but anyway, props to my sister for

417
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:24,119
being so far removed from the world that she schedules

418
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:28,559
her sisters, her daughter's baptists. It's a four o'clock like

419
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:32,559
literally when the super Bowl starts. It's not just kind

420
00:17:32,559 --> 00:17:35,880
of during the super Bowl. It's exactly when it starts

421
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,720
supposed to be. It's just amazing.

422
00:17:38,759 --> 00:17:41,160
Speaker 7: What aren't baptism is supposed to be on Saturday?

423
00:17:41,279 --> 00:17:42,680
Speaker 1: I know that's what I think too.

424
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,039
Speaker 3: But but she's up for you, Jim and your intro music.

425
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think this is Darnell's I wanted to play

426
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:49,319
this work Darnell.

427
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,119
Speaker 3: You said that you wanted Darnell's me. You said, why

428
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:52,839
can't I get the Darnell music? That's literally what you

429
00:17:52,839 --> 00:17:55,519
say when I kept playing bon Joe.

430
00:17:56,039 --> 00:17:59,359
Speaker 1: No, this is I'm gonna. I'm gonna think on a

431
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:01,200
walk up song. I'm gonna, I'm gonna.

432
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:03,279
Speaker 3: Okay for you, I can show you my I'll play

433
00:18:03,319 --> 00:18:05,000
my walk up. So maybe the later point in time

434
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:06,960
and day when I played baseball, people forget I know,

435
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,119
we say ruggy, but I played it actually baseball a lot.

436
00:18:09,279 --> 00:18:12,119
I got some good walk up music. Anyway, that's a

437
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:12,559
good point.

438
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:12,799
Speaker 1: Vic.

439
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,680
Speaker 3: You know, baptisms, I can't remember if they're a member,

440
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:17,920
if it's Saturdays or Sundays, because I know the confirmations

441
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,559
on Sunday, you know or something, or maybe it is Saturday,

442
00:18:20,839 --> 00:18:24,440
yeah today, confirmation on Okay, Yeah that's normally that That's

443
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:26,640
what I thought. But yeah, that's interesting and everything is

444
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:28,440
on Sunday. Maybe it's wrong. Someone's gonna tweet at me

445
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:30,799
or text me or tell me. Look, my family is

446
00:18:30,799 --> 00:18:33,680
a convert to the church. I maybe this will be

447
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:35,960
different when Drewsey's baptized, and I mean maybe need to

448
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,440
read and learn. But I saw a lot of convert

449
00:18:38,519 --> 00:18:40,680
baptisms from the mission and things. But yeah, it is

450
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:43,000
interesting that it is Sunday. Yeah, now that you bring

451
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:44,279
it up, But I'm sorry g Man that you have

452
00:18:44,319 --> 00:18:45,319
to go through that. But I'm telling you that's what

453
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,839
I would do. Go to it, have the phone, do that.

454
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:49,920
But yeah, I understand, And then you just need to

455
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:51,519
go away from the party and go home and watch.

456
00:18:51,559 --> 00:18:53,079
If you want to come watch it with us, we're

457
00:18:53,079 --> 00:18:54,759
gonna be staying in our place. We got invited to

458
00:18:54,799 --> 00:18:56,759
a couple of places, but I don't know. There's a

459
00:18:56,799 --> 00:18:59,119
lot of people that invited us that are fans of it,

460
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:00,960
and I'm just like, I really don't want to watch

461
00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:03,279
it with you because you're gonna get too crazy with

462
00:19:03,319 --> 00:19:05,119
skinning the game. That's kind of how probably people felt

463
00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:06,880
the last five years of me and the Andy Reid

464
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:10,480
and the Chiefs. But I still even then, super Bowl

465
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:12,119
parties are make or break g Man for sure.

466
00:19:12,279 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 1: Yeah. Plus, I don't really care who wins. I I

467
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:19,200
don't have any skinning it. I certainly don't care Patriots Seahawks.

468
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:20,519
I really don't care.

469
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:25,759
Speaker 3: Like Tyris Tonga gets his first ring, I just want

470
00:19:25,759 --> 00:19:26,319
to see him.

471
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:31,160
Speaker 1: Get the doing things. Huh man, he is impacked. Ye,

472
00:19:31,519 --> 00:19:33,440
he's not just that guy that fills in that you

473
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:34,200
don't see sides.

474
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:34,559
Speaker 7: Agreed.

475
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,319
Speaker 1: When you see a nose tackle and you notice him

476
00:19:37,759 --> 00:19:42,440
in the game making plays, you're legit because because you

477
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:44,759
can be a really good nose tackle, no one even

478
00:19:44,839 --> 00:19:47,759
notices you. You're just too gapping and holding up blocks.

479
00:19:47,799 --> 00:19:50,960
All that Kyris is making impacts very fun to watch.

480
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,559
Speaker 7: I want to see him get a touchdown, yeah.

481
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:56,079
Speaker 4: Or lead block for a touchdown right, or or a

482
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:56,960
crucial first down.

483
00:19:57,039 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 3: Man, he's strip sacks, scooping score. You want to see both?

484
00:20:00,079 --> 00:20:00,319
Speaker 1: You know.

485
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 3: We'll put that out maybe as a random football question, Dad,

486
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,359
how do you want to see Tyris kyros Tonga impact

487
00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:08,240
the game in the Super Bowl? Do you want to

488
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,599
see him lead block? You want to see him run?

489
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,319
The ball has to be a blowout for that to happen.

490
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:14,839
Do you want to see him get a strip, sack

491
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:16,720
of scoop and score? What would you like to see?

492
00:20:16,759 --> 00:20:19,559
I'll throw that around you guys, Vick. It sounds like

493
00:20:19,599 --> 00:20:21,480
you want to see him, you know what? Is it

494
00:20:21,599 --> 00:20:23,079
just what offense? Or do you want to see him

495
00:20:23,079 --> 00:20:23,680
more on defense?

496
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:24,720
Speaker 1: Well?

497
00:20:25,319 --> 00:20:27,319
Speaker 7: You know, I want to see him on defense because

498
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:31,960
that's where he's most powerful, is in the middle and

499
00:20:32,039 --> 00:20:35,720
stuffing up, stuffing the run. But I love to see

500
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:40,960
Vrabel throw a little you know, run for a touchdown

501
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,160
one yard, a little blast up the middle and let

502
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,720
him blast the line black. That would be fun to see,

503
00:20:46,599 --> 00:20:49,960
kind of like Refrigerator Perry did in the nineteen eighty.

504
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,200
Speaker 3: Five Super Bowl eighty five. While let's before my time

505
00:20:53,279 --> 00:20:55,240
unless Vic and g Man can go in that when

506
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,640
I was not born to ninety six, So dang, you're

507
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,720
I know, yeah, Kaylor twenty nine, there you go. I mean, look,

508
00:21:01,759 --> 00:21:05,720
I can't I always respect g Man. I respect you

509
00:21:05,759 --> 00:21:08,079
as my older I've never disrespected you. I've poked you,

510
00:21:08,319 --> 00:21:10,039
but I know I respect my elders. But yes, I

511
00:21:10,039 --> 00:21:12,160
am a young buck for sure. But I can't tell

512
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:14,519
you this. Playing basketball with the youth last night and

513
00:21:14,559 --> 00:21:16,400
running up and down the court the next day, it

514
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:18,240
does not feel the same as it did when I

515
00:21:18,279 --> 00:21:20,400
was twenty one. Oh, I can tell you that.

516
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:21,599
Speaker 1: You just wait.

517
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 3: You know it's gonna get worse. I know. Well, here's

518
00:21:24,519 --> 00:21:26,960
the crazy part. It's, like I've said the multiple times

519
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,599
on this program. The priest advisor. I've gotten a lot

520
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:31,880
of the youth priest and teachers now to come, and

521
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:33,519
the parents now trusted me. So what I do, and

522
00:21:33,559 --> 00:21:35,440
I do it right because I know someone's gonna say,

523
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:37,480
pulling the rules, all these breaking rules. I go pick

524
00:21:37,559 --> 00:21:39,200
up the priest, remember what I do, pick up the

525
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:40,680
six year old boys, and I'll get fourteen year old

526
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:42,480
boys because the brothers that are priests aren't coming. I

527
00:21:42,519 --> 00:21:44,640
gotta make sure you know, abide by that the right way.

528
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,559
And then we go to the church and we play.

529
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,279
Their parents come and pick them up, and it's fun

530
00:21:49,319 --> 00:21:52,119
playing with them, but it hurts so much the next

531
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,359
day and I'm like, I can't even imagine. Like I

532
00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:55,960
say this gym, and I have two more years to

533
00:21:56,039 --> 00:21:58,759
enjoy this, because after I'm thirty one, is the decline comes.

534
00:21:58,799 --> 00:22:00,960
It's not gonna it's not going to be better.

535
00:22:01,759 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 1: And then when you're forty it goes into over grab.

536
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:13,960
Speaker 3: Oh man, it's crazy, crazy to think that'll be forty soon. Yeah, anyway, anyway, anyway,

537
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:15,720
so that's my only option.

538
00:22:15,799 --> 00:22:17,559
Speaker 1: Go to the baptism watch on my phone. That's all

539
00:22:17,559 --> 00:22:18,119
you got for me.

540
00:22:18,599 --> 00:22:21,160
Speaker 3: I mean, you know that's not that's the right answer.

541
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:22,720
The other answer I can give you is just don't

542
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:24,880
go to the baptism and watch the game. And then

543
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:26,599
the third answer I can give you, which is also bad,

544
00:22:27,079 --> 00:22:29,720
go to the baptism and don't watch the game. Those

545
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:30,680
are your options.

546
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:32,279
Speaker 1: We're watching on delay.

547
00:22:33,319 --> 00:22:35,920
Speaker 3: Okay, you're gonna watch it on delay with the internet

548
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:37,920
and how you you be on the zets? Sure?

549
00:22:38,079 --> 00:22:38,240
Speaker 1: OK.

550
00:22:40,079 --> 00:22:41,920
Speaker 3: I don't like when people say I watch it on delay.

551
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:43,559
Like I feel like most of those people that say

552
00:22:43,559 --> 00:22:46,519
they watch on delay already know, already know what's happening,

553
00:22:46,519 --> 00:22:48,640
and maybe I need to have some That's what I'm saying.

554
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:50,799
Never words. That's why just leave it be tennis matches

555
00:22:50,839 --> 00:22:52,960
other thing. I go back and watch so I can

556
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,680
be informed. But I've let that emotion go of being

557
00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:59,319
surprised because with social media and this iPhone seventeen and

558
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:01,960
a half here in my and it's impossible to not do.

559
00:23:02,079 --> 00:23:05,000
You can't avoid it, g man, it's impossible. Good luck

560
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:05,279
trying that.

561
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:08,160
Speaker 5: You could avoid it. You just put your phone on

562
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:09,920
do not disturb. That's what I had to learn the

563
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:13,039
hard way. Put delay and that's how you But that's

564
00:23:13,079 --> 00:23:15,599
but that's harder to do, right, Yeah, If you have,

565
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:17,559
if you have any inclination to want to use your

566
00:23:17,559 --> 00:23:20,319
phone throughout the day, do not disturb is not enough.

567
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:23,200
You gotta avoid the reflex to open Instagram, to open

568
00:23:23,279 --> 00:23:26,839
Twitter slash x like you're talking about. You gotta full, clean,

569
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,519
full clans from it. But that that's one way to

570
00:23:29,559 --> 00:23:31,039
watch on delay, but that's not the fun way. And

571
00:23:31,039 --> 00:23:34,079
then I usually find myself fast forwarding through some some

572
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,480
key plays on my on my own, so doesn't feel

573
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:37,599
like you're watching the real game.

574
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 1: Anyway. We all have trials in this life, and I

575
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:43,880
don't counter my trial with grace and a plumb.

576
00:23:43,759 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 3: You will be rewarded, g man. The Lord will bless you.

577
00:23:46,079 --> 00:23:48,519
G Man, He will bless you for going to the

578
00:23:48,559 --> 00:23:51,759
baptism and for also watching the game. Both can be true.

579
00:23:51,799 --> 00:23:53,960
You can do both. Now, I can't say people will

580
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:55,319
be happy. I'm not going to tell you the emotions.

581
00:23:55,319 --> 00:23:56,839
I get poked all the time by my wife of

582
00:23:57,119 --> 00:24:00,200
turn Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid off. Right now, I'll

583
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:01,960
turn Zach Wilson off. I can't tell you how many

584
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:04,200
times this has happened in church, you know, and me

585
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:05,440
checking fantasy football.

586
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 1: But you can be present.

587
00:24:06,839 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 3: You can still be president, and like Elder Holland said,

588
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:11,400
all right, Peter, excuse me, president of Holland, you get

589
00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:13,480
credit for trying. G man, you get credit for trying.

590
00:24:14,599 --> 00:24:15,839
All right, anyway, as.

591
00:24:15,599 --> 00:24:18,440
Speaker 7: Long as you're not v wind DraftKings, all right.

592
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 3: Oh goodness, gracious, as long as you're not that. Yeah,

593
00:24:22,279 --> 00:24:24,839
don't do that. But yeah, I guess we'll ask that question,

594
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:26,519
you know, I guess you know, how would you like

595
00:24:26,559 --> 00:24:29,559
to see Kyris tongk impact the game? Stripsacks, scoop and score.

596
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:31,519
Would you like to see him in the offensive side

597
00:24:31,599 --> 00:24:33,119
lead block? And would you like to see him getting

598
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:36,000
the end zone? Honestly, this might be a take that

599
00:24:36,079 --> 00:24:38,799
no one likes, but honestly, I would like to see

600
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:40,640
him on offense and get the ball and run it

601
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,799
in or lead block. I know people can say, Ronnie,

602
00:24:42,839 --> 00:24:47,799
that's crazy, you know, but look, unless you're like really

603
00:24:47,839 --> 00:24:50,599
putting fourth effort in on offense and scoring, they don't

604
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:53,400
give defensive guys like the Super Bowl MVP anymore in

605
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:54,839
those things. And I'm not saying he can't have an

606
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:56,920
impactful game, but if he ran it up the middle

607
00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,319
and bulldoz a linebacker over a lead block and just

608
00:24:59,319 --> 00:25:02,359
destroy it guy, and you know that that's what you're

609
00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:05,240
gonna remember. It's you're not gonna remember old Kyros Tonga

610
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,759
had to the two stops at the line when you're

611
00:25:07,759 --> 00:25:09,759
not gonna unless it's like a big tackle for loss

612
00:25:09,799 --> 00:25:11,720
or a big time thing. I would love to see him,

613
00:25:11,759 --> 00:25:14,000
you know, blocking out their offensively. So that's my thing.

614
00:25:14,039 --> 00:25:15,880
But no former Cougar in the Super Bowl.

615
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 1: G Man.

616
00:25:16,279 --> 00:25:17,920
Speaker 3: I'll get your thoughts on this really quickly before we

617
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:19,839
go to break. If you are a b YU player

618
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:21,720
and if you want to win a super Bowl, because

619
00:25:21,759 --> 00:25:23,279
I believe the Patriot's gonna win, g Man, I guess

620
00:25:23,279 --> 00:25:24,319
I'll get your take right now.

621
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:25,279
Speaker 1: Do you do.

622
00:25:26,279 --> 00:25:29,319
Speaker 3: You think you think Sam Donald is gonna fully revive

623
00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,519
his career and do it good. We're gonna have to maybe,

624
00:25:31,559 --> 00:25:33,720
you know, the losers are maybe gonna have to sit

625
00:25:33,799 --> 00:25:34,640
down with the other one.

626
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:38,039
Speaker 1: At I think the NF is clearly better than the

627
00:25:38,079 --> 00:25:39,039
AC this year.

628
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, this year, I agree. But I think I

629
00:25:40,759 --> 00:25:43,160
think I think Mike Vabro and the Patriots. I think

630
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:44,480
Drake May is the real Do I don't think this.

631
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,039
Speaker 1: I want the Patriots to I want the Patriots to win.

632
00:25:47,079 --> 00:25:48,599
I'll be cheering for the Patriots, but I think the

633
00:25:49,079 --> 00:25:49,480
gonna win.

634
00:25:49,519 --> 00:25:51,119
Speaker 3: So I just don't think Sam Donald's gonna be a

635
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:54,119
replicate back to back three hundred yard games to three touchdown.

636
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:55,559
I just think that's hard to do. And I think

637
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:59,680
Mike Rabel, having played in this game before, having been

638
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:02,640
on a have before, I just I think he's gonna

639
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:04,319
be well eclipped. I could be wrong, and if I am,

640
00:26:04,319 --> 00:26:06,720
I'll come to airways. All of my football takes compared

641
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:08,839
to g Man are wrong, but gim man. My point is,

642
00:26:08,839 --> 00:26:11,680
if you're a cougar, a former baa cougar in this

643
00:26:11,759 --> 00:26:14,200
day and age, and you want to win a Super Bowl,

644
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:15,559
it used to be the forty nine ers, but as

645
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:17,799
Bang Bang Kyle chok it Away Gang, it seems like

646
00:26:17,839 --> 00:26:20,079
you have to now be on the Patriots because Cava

647
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,559
knowing not Kyro's Tonga. It seems like the New England

648
00:26:22,559 --> 00:26:24,799
Patriots are the team for bou Cougar. So it sounds

649
00:26:24,839 --> 00:26:26,839
like Pooka needs to maybe get out of LA and

650
00:26:26,839 --> 00:26:28,400
then maybe be in New England and go to the

651
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:29,440
Super Bowl and get it done.

652
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:31,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think the Rams are ever gonna get rid.

653
00:26:31,519 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 3: Of They're not getting rid of them. It's a fantasy.

654
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,319
Speaker 1: Man. How great for Pooka. I remember when it got

655
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:38,400
dropped in the fifth round and we're thinking, man, that's

656
00:26:38,519 --> 00:26:40,599
really low, and then you start to look at his situation.

657
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:44,079
He was in the perfect situation. Yeah, the Rams had nothing,

658
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:47,920
Cooper Couple's hurt, and man, it just goes to show

659
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:51,440
I mean, Pook's if you're phenomenal, you're gonna be phenomenal

660
00:26:51,759 --> 00:26:54,920
in most occasions. But it always helps to have that path,

661
00:26:55,319 --> 00:26:58,079
that opening where you can prove yourself. And Pooka ran

662
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,759
through it. In my goodness, he could well be considered

663
00:27:00,759 --> 00:27:03,920
the best receiver in all of the NFL. And I'll

664
00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:05,680
tell you what else is cool. When I started with

665
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:09,200
the Desert News, part of my responsibilities was the NFL

666
00:27:09,279 --> 00:27:13,000
tracker for local athletes. So I'd list all the athletes

667
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:16,759
from Utah Bwauutest eight and it was pathetic for Bwayu.

668
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:20,000
It was. It was bad. This is like back in

669
00:27:20,039 --> 00:27:24,240
twenty twelve, twenty thirteen, and every time I do it,

670
00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:26,920
it's just like, Man, Bwau has no presence in this league.

671
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:29,519
Even Utes State had more presence than the way you

672
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:31,839
Back in the day, it seemed like that is a

673
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,720
really big and significant thing that has happened with b

674
00:27:34,759 --> 00:27:38,160
WAU football in recent years, where you're not only getting

675
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:42,680
guys that contribute, you're getting headliners. And that's a really

676
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:47,160
really good look for any program that's credibility. And that's

677
00:27:47,839 --> 00:27:49,440
I mean, what's the purpose of college, if you think

678
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:53,200
about it, is to vulture to professional life to where

679
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:57,599
you succeed. Every athlete wants that that goes to any college,

680
00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:59,920
maybe a little less so because they can get paid

681
00:28:00,279 --> 00:28:03,440
a lot going to college. Sure I get that, but

682
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:07,079
it's still promoting yourself to the NFL. That is a big,

683
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,079
big thing. And now that b way you can say, hey,

684
00:28:09,079 --> 00:28:13,559
you know that Pukinku play for BAU Fred Warner, Yeah,

685
00:28:13,799 --> 00:28:18,160
same school, Kylevin. It's a big, big thing, and it's

686
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,440
it's just kind of kangarooon with the strides by way

687
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:28,119
he's been made. They go together, NFL presence, increased viability

688
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:31,039
on the actual field of play. They go together. And

689
00:28:31,079 --> 00:28:33,920
that's one of the great things that Klanne's helped realize

690
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,640
within this program. And Ben would point this out of

691
00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:40,359
Hugh's coasting right now, who actually coached these guys well,

692
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:43,200
Kylevin hy that was Bronco. Fred Warner, that was pro Bronco.

693
00:28:43,319 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, Bronco.

694
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,960
Speaker 1: Yes, So you have to credit Bronco as well for

695
00:28:47,039 --> 00:28:49,240
sure for a lot of these. But but I think

696
00:28:49,279 --> 00:28:52,599
it's kind of been putting overdrive with Kilanie. Hopefully it continues.

697
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:54,000
I think it will, and it's a big thing for

698
00:28:54,039 --> 00:28:55,319
this Bway Football program.

699
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:55,880
Speaker 3: I love it.

700
00:28:56,039 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 7: Like eighteen people guys now, eighteen guys now on roster.

701
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:03,119
Speaker 3: I think I think you would have the numbers who

702
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:04,759
you do the newsletter, but I think I know it's

703
00:29:04,799 --> 00:29:07,559
above fifteen for sure, But there you are eighteen people,

704
00:29:07,559 --> 00:29:10,480
and I mean it's not gonna stop there excuse me,

705
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:13,119
almost sneezed again yesterday called a sneezing thing, not sneezing

706
00:29:13,119 --> 00:29:14,039
today anyway.

707
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 4: Uh.

708
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:17,559
Speaker 3: But no, Bronco does get credit for those guys. And

709
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:20,200
I know Klinie is someone that you know, he inherited

710
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,119
some of them. But the guys that Kilanie has is

711
00:29:22,119 --> 00:29:25,000
gonna continue to go. You know, it's not gonna stop.

712
00:29:25,359 --> 00:29:28,119
How many draft picks or NFL guys are on this

713
00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:30,480
current roster now and the ones that are, you know,

714
00:29:30,519 --> 00:29:32,640
the seniors going out. Will Farren is gonna play, Chase

715
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:34,880
is gonna play. Jack Kelly's gonna play, and then you

716
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:37,160
think of Isaiah Glaska as the future at the at

717
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:39,880
the next level, Klave has a has one in grounded

718
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,279
Evan Johnson I think, does I think if I think

719
00:29:43,359 --> 00:29:44,960
Trey has to take the next step, but Trey has

720
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:48,319
the potential to file South Tuala does. Tanna Walla I

721
00:29:48,359 --> 00:29:50,680
think has a good shot to play. You know, at

722
00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:52,920
the next level, there's a bunch of guys that can

723
00:29:53,079 --> 00:29:53,480
can do that.

724
00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:54,160
Speaker 1: I think.

725
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,160
Speaker 3: I think Carson Ron's gonna play. You know what is it?

726
00:29:57,759 --> 00:30:00,480
Tyler Baddy's already playing. I'm trying to think of why

727
00:30:00,519 --> 00:30:02,359
is this space in my brain? But going back to

728
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:04,480
the offensive side, does Parker Kinkston I have a shot

729
00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:07,160
Parker gets a thousand yard season, g man. I think

730
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,319
Parker is a really good shot to play put and

731
00:30:09,319 --> 00:30:10,680
put himself in that conversation.

732
00:30:10,839 --> 00:30:13,039
Speaker 1: What's gonna help Parker a lot is that he's been

733
00:30:13,319 --> 00:30:14,160
returning ponds.

734
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:16,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's yeah, that's he's gonna.

735
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:18,799
Speaker 1: Be a guy that's gonna want to do special teams

736
00:30:19,559 --> 00:30:21,640
and he can excel at that and that's gonna help.

737
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:23,839
Speaker 3: Like the Tyreek Hilway do that then work yourself up

738
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:24,480
one hundred percent.

739
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:26,319
Speaker 1: Agree. Yeah, that's gonna be a big thing for Parker.

740
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, that that that is And I know Keanu, uh

741
00:30:28,759 --> 00:30:30,279
what is it? I mean, Keanu ton of As is

742
00:30:30,279 --> 00:30:32,000
gonna be one of the Kilani guys because he will

743
00:30:32,039 --> 00:30:33,680
have spent years at Utah and years at b A.

744
00:30:33,799 --> 00:30:35,960
I think you have to spend at least two two

745
00:30:36,039 --> 00:30:38,359
years minimum and by you're above to be considered that.

746
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,359
So maybe not Kadu la Ulu unless he comes back.

747
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:42,680
I don't know if he's a senior AF to double

748
00:30:42,759 --> 00:30:45,559
check that. But a lot of these so yeah, so

749
00:30:45,559 --> 00:30:47,440
a lot of these guys on the roster are gonna

750
00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:49,839
be Kialani guys playing at the next level. Kialanie had

751
00:30:49,839 --> 00:30:51,599
said this. It was after Jaron hall g Man. I

752
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:53,279
think you you would have remembered this, but we were

753
00:30:53,279 --> 00:30:54,920
in the in the post game, it says, my job

754
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,440
is to get you know, help these young men win

755
00:30:57,519 --> 00:30:59,240
games and build them, but also prepare them to be

756
00:30:59,279 --> 00:31:01,279
in the NFL and get to the next level. He's

757
00:31:01,319 --> 00:31:03,960
been doing that consistently. He did that this year, Like

758
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:07,720
is bear bachmar not gonna be an NFL quarterback because

759
00:31:07,759 --> 00:31:10,079
of coming to BYU and how he plays in Kalonie

760
00:31:10,079 --> 00:31:12,480
and Aaron Roddocks system. I'm not saying it's gonna be a

761
00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:14,480
first to fourth round guy. That's not what's coming out

762
00:31:14,519 --> 00:31:16,640
of my mouth. But I think this guy's production and

763
00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:19,400
if he's able to play three years, that that's the

764
00:31:19,519 --> 00:31:21,799
he's gonna have a shot. Like you know, he might

765
00:31:21,839 --> 00:31:24,319
be a fifth round, sixth or seventh round pick, but Bear,

766
00:31:24,359 --> 00:31:25,920
I think is gonna have a chance with his running

767
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:28,200
ability to do that. And look at this Kialani culture

768
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:29,759
of the reason. I mean, when you get this many

769
00:31:29,799 --> 00:31:32,000
guys back. I said it earlier. You don't see this

770
00:31:32,039 --> 00:31:34,559
in college football. This is an anomaly. Gee man, I

771
00:31:34,599 --> 00:31:37,960
mentioned Matt Campbell and Iowa State. Normally the program gets shredded,

772
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,799
it gets it gets torn down, and instead this program

773
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:42,880
is getting built up because of it. And it's all

774
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:44,039
because of Kilanie's a Dockum.

775
00:31:44,319 --> 00:31:49,119
Speaker 1: Here's what Bear has for him. Running backs typically don't

776
00:31:49,119 --> 00:31:51,599
make it very far in the NFL. No, they're if

777
00:31:51,599 --> 00:31:54,279
they're not built. Look at the guy for the Redskins.

778
00:31:54,319 --> 00:31:56,839
I'm forgetting his name right now. I'm wondering if that

779
00:31:56,839 --> 00:31:59,279
that guy's gonna be able to stay healthy Why why

780
00:31:59,359 --> 00:32:01,319
is Josh Allen in sixteen? Because he's built like.

781
00:32:01,319 --> 00:32:03,160
Speaker 3: A tank six to seven, built like a tank.

782
00:32:03,599 --> 00:32:06,839
Speaker 1: Jalen heards same thing. Bear's bigger than all of them. Yeah,

783
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:11,400
facts without lower body, that durability, that's going to play

784
00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:15,359
big and some smart NFL executive man, this kid can

785
00:32:15,759 --> 00:32:18,119
deliver it on time. And look at that lower body.

786
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:18,839
Speaker 3: His improvement.

787
00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:19,880
Speaker 1: He is a centaur.

788
00:32:20,559 --> 00:32:24,119
Speaker 7: His improvement just last year from the beginning throwing the ball.

789
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 1: And you add that running element, that durability, there's no way.

790
00:32:29,119 --> 00:32:32,440
I mean, he didn't finish the season hurt healthy. Obviously

791
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:36,559
he was hurt, but Matt the shots he took, and

792
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:39,200
I'll tell you why, He's gonna be much better prepared

793
00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:43,000
this time. Yeah, this time around he was not. I mean,

794
00:32:43,039 --> 00:32:45,160
he looks like a college athlete just because he's so

795
00:32:45,279 --> 00:32:49,359
well built naturally, but he hasn't been through a collegiate

796
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:52,799
weightlifting program and all that. He's going to be far

797
00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:56,480
better prepared this coming year. And when you get Marry

798
00:32:56,559 --> 00:33:00,880
that with his given attributes, has God given ger I

799
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,960
wonder I wanted to use a different word, but that's

800
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:08,119
all I got right there. Yeah, he's gonna prove durable

801
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:11,079
oh yeah, and that's that should play really big in

802
00:33:11,119 --> 00:33:11,680
the NFL.

803
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:12,720
Speaker 3: I definitely will.

804
00:33:12,759 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 1: I have to believe it is same thing with l

805
00:33:15,079 --> 00:33:18,720
J Mar and him going through this entire season healthy,

806
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:22,640
that's gonna play so so yeah, I think the way

807
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:27,519
he's well stuck. Honestly, if you're gonna ask me who

808
00:33:27,559 --> 00:33:29,960
the best NFL prospect is on the team right now,

809
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:31,799
ready for a hot take?

810
00:33:32,279 --> 00:33:34,200
Speaker 3: A hot take? You will were always ready for hot takes.

811
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:36,960
Speaker 1: It's because I'm really high on this kid, and I

812
00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:40,400
think he's going to be absolutely phenomenal. This nucy talmoy P.

813
00:33:40,559 --> 00:33:41,839
Speaker 3: I knew he was gonna say that. I knew he

814
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:42,240
was gonna be.

815
00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:47,559
Speaker 1: I think he I'll tell you what, when the season

816
00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:49,880
rolls around next year, he's going to be the guy.

817
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:51,599
He's gonna be Wow.

818
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 7: Yeah.

819
00:33:52,559 --> 00:33:56,960
Speaker 3: In camp, it's gonna be him and katuluav I think

820
00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:59,480
those are gonna be the guys, like, because Kid's also

821
00:33:59,519 --> 00:34:00,240
going to be in there role.

822
00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:02,720
Speaker 1: Well, you know what Kid's gonna be. Kid's gonna be phenomenal.

823
00:34:02,759 --> 00:34:04,279
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, he's gonna be phenomenal. I mean he's already

824
00:34:04,279 --> 00:34:07,720
is phenomenal. I mean all freshman defensive team and all

825
00:34:07,799 --> 00:34:10,119
a c c like doing that in your freshman and

826
00:34:10,119 --> 00:34:12,400
sophomore Ye, CAD's going to be a problem.

827
00:34:12,599 --> 00:34:15,440
Speaker 1: But what I like about Noose replacement for Jack Kelly

828
00:34:15,639 --> 00:34:18,719
is his versatility. I think he could play really well

829
00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:21,760
at middle backer. I think we know he can play

830
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:24,079
good at Russia. And like when he went in the game,

831
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:26,280
I knew every time he went into the game, I'd

832
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:28,440
be in the press box number probably always going in

833
00:34:28,679 --> 00:34:32,239
and I usually don't hone in on specific defensive players.

834
00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:34,280
I would hone in on Newsy almost every time.

835
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:35,960
Speaker 3: And guess what the quarterback.

836
00:34:36,119 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 1: He did something almost every time he was in there.

837
00:34:39,039 --> 00:34:43,320
And that was his first year playing college football. Yep.

838
00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:48,119
His spin move is amaine. Guys, I'm telling in the game,

839
00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:50,599
I believe he is the best NFL prospect on the

840
00:34:50,639 --> 00:34:51,159
team right now.

841
00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,920
Speaker 3: I agree like that. That's a pressure on the last

842
00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:56,519
and I'll tell you the last play, Yeah for the pick.

843
00:34:56,599 --> 00:34:59,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll tell you who. No one's talking about that

844
00:34:59,079 --> 00:35:01,960
that's gonna play in the end NFL Bruce Mitchell, Yeah,

845
00:35:02,039 --> 00:35:02,719
oh no yet. No.

846
00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,280
Speaker 3: Brady Papinka has come to airways and multiple multiple times

847
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:08,039
has been Bruce Mitchell is really really Bruce is the

848
00:35:08,079 --> 00:35:10,519
next level alignment and you look at his egline.

849
00:35:11,039 --> 00:35:15,360
Speaker 1: This was his first before This was the first season

850
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:19,159
where he had the entire offseason to prepare as a center,

851
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:23,079
as an offensive lineman. He greeted out phenomenally. He he

852
00:35:23,199 --> 00:35:25,320
you could argue he was the best center in the

853
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:30,400
in the Big twelve Conference. He was fantastic. Yeah. Richie

854
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:35,559
Saunders companion, Yeah, campaign the top King companion, Yeah, the

855
00:35:35,599 --> 00:35:37,679
top King. One of my favorite guys to interview on

856
00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:41,239
the entire team. Bruce Mitchell. His the age thing is

857
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:43,920
going to get him. It's probably gonna make him a

858
00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:45,360
fifth or six round pick.

859
00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:49,159
Speaker 3: That's fine. I still think think he's gonna be a

860
00:35:49,159 --> 00:35:49,840
dominant lineman.

861
00:35:50,559 --> 00:35:54,119
Speaker 7: I interviewed him after camp I think goals for this year,

862
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:58,960
and he got this little, a little shy look on

863
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,199
his face and he goes, I don't think i'm gonna

864
00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:01,639
tell you that.

865
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:04,480
Speaker 4: I thought that was cool.

866
00:36:04,639 --> 00:36:06,639
Speaker 3: Well, that that's the dog mentality, right, That's how you're

867
00:36:06,639 --> 00:36:08,760
able to keep yourself humbling hungry. Is you ask a

868
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:10,800
valid question vic, which is totally I think valid. And

869
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:13,159
I remember this interview and he's like he thought about

870
00:36:13,159 --> 00:36:15,159
as I'm not gonna tell you that because look, I

871
00:36:15,199 --> 00:36:19,280
like these guys. Look, they're all everyone on this football team, coaches, players,

872
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:21,679
has an ego. Is just how does a personality shine?

873
00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:24,159
Are you a talker like Trey Alexander and Tommy Prass's

874
00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:26,639
are you more like? Are you are? It's not even

875
00:36:26,639 --> 00:36:28,320
necessarily humble. I don't even think humbles the word er.

876
00:36:28,559 --> 00:36:30,360
You just more of a because talking is not a

877
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:32,039
lot a lot of guys to think. Are you more

878
00:36:32,039 --> 00:36:33,840
of a Evan Johnson that you just like to smile?

879
00:36:34,079 --> 00:36:36,360
Because Evan just likes to smile, right, He just likes

880
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,119
to make plays and like I like pop star star

881
00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:42,159
like you know, he's just every personality plays a factor

882
00:36:42,199 --> 00:36:44,320
into it. And Bruce is one of those guys. Of Bruce.

883
00:36:44,639 --> 00:36:46,840
Bruce I actually doesn't like a lot of talking, but

884
00:36:47,079 --> 00:36:48,960
he's definitely got it, puts in a work in good

885
00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:51,400
take g man, Uh yeah, one hundred percent.

886
00:36:51,519 --> 00:36:54,079
Speaker 1: You know, go through the roster. I'm reminded of the

887
00:36:54,119 --> 00:36:57,719
most obvious NFL prospect last year who were not even

888
00:36:57,760 --> 00:37:01,639
talking about is Isaiah Glasker. Oh yeah, he's still that guy.

889
00:37:02,079 --> 00:37:06,280
His ankle was bad last year, bad bad. He was

890
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:09,360
limited bad bad man. You wait, you're gonna be reminded,

891
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:13,639
just tell impactful and how good Isaiah lask And my

892
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:16,679
goodness is linebacking CORPR for B. Why you come and

893
00:37:17,039 --> 00:37:21,519
next year is the best position group in it's the

894
00:37:21,519 --> 00:37:23,480
best position group. I don't think it's I don't think

895
00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:24,039
it's even close.

896
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:28,239
Speaker 3: People might say wide receiver room. I'm like, but it's

897
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:30,599
and I'm like the potential, the potential, yes, because you

898
00:37:30,679 --> 00:37:32,280
got you got a lot of young dudes. Well, someone

899
00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:34,119
told me yesterday like, oh, I like the wide receiver room.

900
00:37:34,159 --> 00:37:35,639
I think it's up there, said, I think you like

901
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:37,679
the potential. I think you like the potential of what

902
00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:39,679
it is because they got a nice freshmen coming and

903
00:37:39,679 --> 00:37:43,000
they do have two or three dudes that that can

904
00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:45,159
if they if they put in the work GM and

905
00:37:45,199 --> 00:37:47,320
they can't get themselves up there. But it's not even close.

906
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:48,039
It's linebacker.

907
00:37:48,159 --> 00:37:49,400
Speaker 1: Okay, I know you need to go to break, but

908
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:52,880
I'm gonna leave with people. B. Why you will be

987
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:50,519
We'll be traveling safe back. He'll be back on Monday

988
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:55,760
to recap the wonderful BYU basketball game number thirteen billion

989
00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:59,280
men's basketball taken on number fourteen Kansas Top twenty five,

990
00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:03,280
specifically Top fifteen matchup. We're gonna discuss it in the

991
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:07,159
later segmente Gurney starts here from Kevin Young later Cable Lions,

992
00:42:07,159 --> 00:42:09,920
also by Misadeve Crama and the Data Aggregation. Appreciate everyone

993
00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:11,760

00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:16,320
you're gonna join me a little later, but everybody be safe.

996
00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:17,599
Don't get sick out there. You don't want to be

997
00:42:17,639 --> 00:42:20,559
sick for Super Bowl, uh, you know, the super Bowl

998
00:42:20,559 --> 00:42:22,599
weekend and then in a couple of weeks. But you

999
00:42:22,639 --> 00:42:24,400
also maybe not want to go to baptisms as well.

1000
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:26,000
You might have to be like Brandon Gurney and go

1001
00:42:26,039 --> 00:42:29,119
watch and go watch, go go support spiritually and then

1002
00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:29,880
then do that.

1003
00:42:31,039 --> 00:42:32,039
Speaker 1: My life is so hard.

1004
00:42:32,079 --> 00:42:34,360
Speaker 3: This is why I would never be bishop, because the

1005
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:37,719
Lord knows that I would cancel church and then you'd

1006
00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:39,199
have that day off. So that's why I will never

1007
00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:40,159
be called because of that.

1008
00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:42,599
Speaker 1: Hey, Ron Ronnie, this is off the coff but I

1009
00:42:42,679 --> 00:42:45,039
want to I want to give a plug to Ortho

1010
00:42:45,039 --> 00:42:48,519
Prosa Utah. And this is legit what happened today.

1011
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:51,039
Speaker 3: So that's not the sponsor of this segment, but go

1012
00:42:51,079 --> 00:42:52,159
ahead and plug orthrop Pros.

1013
00:42:53,679 --> 00:42:57,480
Speaker 1: Sorry, I maybe I should type this better, but so anyway,

1014
00:42:57,519 --> 00:42:59,960
you just say Ben does this mom and pops store

1015
00:43:00,039 --> 00:43:02,719
or whatever. So I get a group text because I'm

1016
00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:05,199
on the company text line because because I do some

1017
00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:07,920
stuff for Criddle here and there. Right, Yeah, So anyway,

1018
00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:12,519
Lindsay Vaughn biffed at big time. You guys probably saw

1019
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:16,079
Switzerland just had to be airlifted out one hundred percent. Yeah, yeah,

1020
00:43:16,559 --> 00:43:21,639
So anyway, her mtr her trainer is based in Utah.

1021
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:25,800
He needed to fly out with a brace. Guess who

1022
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:30,519
they called to supply the brace Utah. So when you

1023
00:43:30,519 --> 00:43:33,440
see Lindsay Vaughn with a brace on in Switzerland because

1024
00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:37,800
he's flying out to Switzerland tonight, it was provided by

1025
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:39,800
Bank Crittle for Prosa Utah.

1026
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:44,320
Speaker 3: Look like, well, we always say as super cool Orthopros.

1027
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:46,960
You always say we have an array of orthopedic and

1028
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:49,239
sports medicine devices that can help aid and support you

1029
00:43:49,599 --> 00:43:54,280
helping in supporting MS Vaughan appreciate that a guess who

1030
00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:56,039
they call, they know who to call. You gotta call

1031
00:43:56,119 --> 00:43:58,480
the right people. It's not just Ortho pros though. Speaking

1032
00:43:58,519 --> 00:44:00,760
of calling the music and bandit ay chosen by g Man,

1033
00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:02,280

1038
00:44:11,639 --> 00:44:14,760
at roll on me brand dot com. G Man, who's

1039
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:16,199
the band of today that you picked? That was a

1040
00:44:16,199 --> 00:44:16,599
good song?

1041
00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:19,599
Speaker 1: It was Pearl Jam. It's it's probably my favorite Pearl

1042
00:44:19,639 --> 00:44:21,760
Jam song. And what I like about is you can't

1043
00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:25,599
understand a word, he says throughout the I love it.

1044
00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:28,639
I don't. I think I know what those songs about,

1045
00:44:28,639 --> 00:44:32,440
but I'm not sure, but I love it. It's a great song. Yeah, flastic,

1046
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:34,599
there you go. Pearl Jam band of today.

1047
00:44:34,639 --> 00:44:37,400
Speaker 3: It's a good song that Pearl Jam is the band today.

1048
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:39,360
So all right here we go, g Man. I know

1049
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:42,440
you probably saw the news. I saw it. It was

1050
00:44:43,639 --> 00:44:46,239
put out over social media. You have to pay attention

1051
00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:48,639
obviously to the ex's I like to say, make sure

1052
00:44:48,639 --> 00:44:51,519
that you're zening all the time. But a certain BYU

1053
00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:53,760
player has enrolled a b YU GM. I know you

1054
00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:56,519
know who it is, adding depth to this running back room.

1055
00:44:56,559 --> 00:44:59,199
Do you like this edition? I mean, look, any edition

1056
00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:00,960
at this point has to be able to help this

1057
00:45:01,039 --> 00:45:03,519
room because it's then a lot of people are like, oh,

1058
00:45:03,559 --> 00:45:06,119
Baron LJ can do it again. I firmly believe you can't.

1059
00:45:06,639 --> 00:45:09,480
And we're not talking about g Man going twelve and

1060
00:45:09,679 --> 00:45:11,239
one or twelve. So you're talking about getting to the

1061
00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:14,159
college football playoffs. Being competitive like BAU basketball. You need

1062
00:45:14,199 --> 00:45:15,760
to beat the teams that matter that we think are

1063
00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:19,000
elite eight teams that can be Final four teams. Baron

1064
00:45:19,119 --> 00:45:20,360
LJ just won't be enough.

1065
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:20,760
Speaker 1: It won't.

1066
00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:22,320
Speaker 3: It is not going to do that. And that's why

1067
00:45:22,519 --> 00:45:24,960
former you touch their running back signee. You know he's

1068
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:28,440
a rolled in BAU after his mission, Makai Beckstead, he

1069
00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:31,719
ran for nearly two thousand yards as a senior attemp view.

1070
00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:33,400
Gi Man, you're on the preps world as well as

1071
00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:36,159
Double D and Seawan and a multitude of others. This

1072
00:45:36,199 --> 00:45:39,079
addition to the running back room for BYU. What impact

1073
00:45:39,079 --> 00:45:39,840
do you think he'll make.

1074
00:45:40,719 --> 00:45:43,079
Speaker 1: He could have a really big impact.

1075
00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:48,119
Speaker 3: I'm not counting on, really not count on. Okay, I

1076
00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:49,239
just I don't.

1077
00:45:49,079 --> 00:45:53,159
Speaker 1: Know the thing about he was tremendous in twenty twenty four.

1078
00:45:53,199 --> 00:45:54,280
He looked really really.

1079
00:45:54,119 --> 00:45:54,760
Speaker 3: Good, look great.

1080
00:45:55,639 --> 00:45:58,639
Speaker 1: He was hurt. He was not able to be himself.

1081
00:45:58,639 --> 00:46:01,239
And if you talk to him, remember when he scored

1082
00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:03,400
after that stand for game. I remember he was in

1083
00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:07,039
the press conference and I asked him, how did that

1084
00:46:07,039 --> 00:46:10,679
fail to score some touchdown? And he immediately just went

1085
00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:13,360
this person. I just I hope I can get my

1086
00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:16,199
burst back. I'm not there yet. He never got there,

1087
00:46:16,199 --> 00:46:18,599
and I wonder if he'll ever get there again. I

1088
00:46:18,679 --> 00:46:21,360
hope he does, because he's a really nice kid and

1089
00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:24,000
it'd be a really great story. But you cannot depend

1090
00:46:24,039 --> 00:46:26,320
on that. I like what I saw from Joe Besa

1091
00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:27,719
de Mooney in the Bowl game. I think he can

1092
00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:30,239
be a guy now that bumb link things behind him. Plus,

1093
00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:32,840
I think he's a really good change for LJ. Martin,

1094
00:46:33,199 --> 00:46:35,519
really good. But what you want is competition. You just

1095
00:46:35,559 --> 00:46:37,880
don't want to plug in guys. That's what hurt me.

1096
00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:40,199
Why you last year? As SIONI Mulla did not really

1097
00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:45,280
any competition and whatnot. So yeah, give me the running

1098
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:48,360
back death. I like the kid from Lehigh whose name

1099
00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:52,440
I forget right, Devon Eka. But you need competition because

1100
00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:55,639
guess what, LJ is gone after this year. You're gonna

1101
00:46:55,679 --> 00:46:58,599
need guys I are, of course in this day and age,

1102
00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:01,880
they're probably gonna hit the train reportal bringing some guys whatnot.

1103
00:47:02,039 --> 00:47:04,000
It seems like running backs a position where you can

1104
00:47:04,079 --> 00:47:06,320
just pick and choose guys from all over the place

1105
00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:10,039
to plug and play. The problem is is they want

1106
00:47:10,079 --> 00:47:11,800
to play. They just don't want to be plugged in.

1107
00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:14,840
So and that's the problem at b Way because you

1108
00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:18,039
have the offensive the Big twelve Offensive player of the year,

1109
00:47:18,559 --> 00:47:21,920
Elgi Martin. He's returned, he's really good. But but here's

1110
00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:25,639
what you you particularly need one this year b Way.

1111
00:47:25,679 --> 00:47:28,119
He was afforded two buys last.

1112
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:30,280
Speaker 3: Year happened in this year everybody was, but not.

1113
00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:35,519
Speaker 1: Those nine straight games to end the season. That's I

1114
00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:38,440
I just I just don't think you can bank on that.

1115
00:47:39,119 --> 00:47:41,719
I want to see games where LG. Martin's not used

1116
00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:45,559
that much, where he's afforded some breathing room and all that.

1117
00:47:46,119 --> 00:47:49,559
I think with Bear's progress. The missic component with LG.

1118
00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:53,480
Martin why he was so valuable was he was valuable

1119
00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:57,480
because what he provided Bear Bachmeyer in that backfield, making

1120
00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:01,440
checks right uh and and doing everything he does pass

1121
00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:05,280
pro big, big big. He had to perform a lot

1122
00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:08,119
more than just running the football, and he was so

1123
00:48:08,239 --> 00:48:11,320
essential to this team. And it's gonna be diminished a

1124
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:14,719
little bit just because Bear's gonna be progressed that much more.

1125
00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:18,079
But it's still a big thing. And yes, he needs help,

1126
00:48:18,199 --> 00:48:20,960
so so yeah, give me all the running backs the

1127
00:48:21,079 --> 00:48:24,280
chances that he's gonna go through the season unscaped once again.

1128
00:48:25,079 --> 00:48:26,360
I don't know if he can count on that. I

1129
00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:28,400
think Joe Besa de Mooney he's gonna be up to

1130
00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:31,679
speed more and more. But yeah, I even though they

1131
00:48:31,679 --> 00:48:34,199
had this guy from Utaha, I still want to see another.

1132
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:36,760
Speaker 3: Guy, absolutely, Caleb. I'll get your thoughts on this question

1133
00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:39,320
of today always brought to by Roland me brand dot com.

1134
00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:41,559
How do you feel about Bo's projected running back room

1135
00:48:41,599 --> 00:48:43,800
with the addition of Mackay Beckstad. Just to give you

1136
00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:45,840
the names in there, LJ. Martin, as G Man mentioned,

1137
00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:49,039
Senior Preston Rex, Senior Joe Vessa de Mooney sophomore, Sony

1138
00:48:49,079 --> 00:48:52,960

mona junior, not saying the names. Don't want to get

1140
00:48:54,800 --> 00:48:57,960
that mixed up. Charles Miska, who's the sophomore, Logan Pain sophomore.

1141
00:48:58,000 --> 00:48:59,920
I really thought we see Logan Pain last year, Lucky

1142
00:49:00,199 --> 00:49:03,639
Now junior, Devon Echa freshman twenty twenty six, sinety by

1143
00:49:03,639 --> 00:49:05,480
the way, and then Makai bec said he is a

1144
00:49:05,559 --> 00:49:08,719
returned missionary. Caleb, your thoughts on that, well, let me.

1145
00:49:08,639 --> 00:49:11,079
Speaker 1: Just say ahead, Yeah, I'm very high on Logan Pain

1146
00:49:11,119 --> 00:49:12,320
as well. He was hurt.

1147
00:49:12,599 --> 00:49:15,400
Speaker 3: He was hurt too, see everybody deemed.

1148
00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:19,000
Speaker 1: He was skimpy anywhere. Anyway, go ahead, Caleb, I just

1149
00:49:19,039 --> 00:49:19,280
want to.

1150
00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:20,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, that's okay.

1151
00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:22,440
Speaker 5: I think like Gurney was talking about, I think competition

1152
00:49:22,519 --> 00:49:24,000
breeds excellence, right ooh.

1153
00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:24,440
Speaker 3: I like that.

1154
00:49:24,639 --> 00:49:26,440
Speaker 5: I was wishing that we would see more out of Sion.

1155
00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:29,239
It was unfortunate that he was hurt last year. I

1156
00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:31,360
really liked what like Gurney was saying. What we saw

1157
00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:33,960
in twenty twenty four when he came in was really

1158
00:49:34,039 --> 00:49:36,079
a good one two punch with LJH.

1159
00:49:36,159 --> 00:49:37,800
Speaker 4: I think if we can find something like that.

1160
00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:40,519
Speaker 5: Again, with Gurney saying, in this era of transfer portal,

1161
00:49:40,559 --> 00:49:42,480
I don't know how much we're gonna be able to

1162
00:49:42,519 --> 00:49:44,960
develop and plug and play, especially with LJ getting the

1163
00:49:44,960 --> 00:49:47,280
majority of the reps at that position, as he should,

1164
00:49:47,400 --> 00:49:49,719
as he's earned right and as we brought him back

1165
00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:52,199
to do. But I think it's gonna have to come

1166
00:49:52,199 --> 00:49:55,199
down to competitions. Like you said, we've got some freshmen

1167
00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:57,000
coming in, We've got beck set coming in.

1168
00:49:57,880 --> 00:49:59,239
Speaker 4: I think, just let him play it out.

1169
00:49:59,280 --> 00:50:02,280
Speaker 5: I think something that I've come to really gain faith

1170
00:50:02,320 --> 00:50:04,480
and trust in is the coaching staff's ability to let

1171
00:50:04,519 --> 00:50:07,599
people play it out and to have that healthy competition

1172
00:50:07,679 --> 00:50:09,519
and to earn that spot and earn that role. I

1173
00:50:09,519 --> 00:50:12,239
think there have been a few different competitions where somebody's

1174
00:50:12,320 --> 00:50:15,159
come out on top that I wasn't necessarily expecting, But

1175
00:50:15,199 --> 00:50:17,039
a few games into the season, you just start to

1176
00:50:17,039 --> 00:50:19,159
see what the coaching staff saw and the practices and

1177
00:50:19,199 --> 00:50:21,000
why they were able to get that position they had.

1178
00:50:21,079 --> 00:50:23,000
So I really hope they were able to find a

1179
00:50:23,039 --> 00:50:27,039
clear number two running back this offseason before the season starts,

1180
00:50:27,079 --> 00:50:29,639
and not just somebody that will be like, hey, LJ, you.

1181
00:50:29,519 --> 00:50:32,400
Speaker 4: Take a you take a few few breathers.

1182
00:50:32,039 --> 00:50:34,440
Speaker 5: Right, and I'll get in there legit number running back. Yeah,

1183
00:50:34,480 --> 00:50:36,719
somebody that we're excited to have in there at number two.

1184
00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:39,000
You know, I'm a Detroit Lions fans. Right now, we've

1185
00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:44,880
got Jamiir Gibbs and David Montgomery. Yeah, so maybe, yeah,

1186
00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:48,280
maybe we'll compare. Yeah, you got it, you got the joker,

1187
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:48,800
you got it.

1188
00:50:49,079 --> 00:50:50,280
Speaker 4: I got it, I got it. I heard it.

1189
00:50:50,960 --> 00:50:53,679
Speaker 5: But maybe I feel like Lj's kind of our David Montgomery.

1190
00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:56,880
We can get our Jamiir Gibbs for the boycoug's this offseason.

1191
00:50:57,199 --> 00:50:59,079
Speaker 3: If if people are blinded and don't know what I

1192
00:50:59,119 --> 00:51:01,920
was poking. I'm from Chiao, guys, Bears fan Lions fans

1193
00:51:02,320 --> 00:51:04,880
really really thought the Lions would steamroll this year. But

1194
00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:07,119
I guess losing coordinators does hurt. But I like the

1195
00:51:07,159 --> 00:51:10,039
comparison of Jamier Gibbs and David Montgomery. David Gomery is

1196
00:51:10,119 --> 00:51:11,960
r LGM Martin to me, I think the Jamior Gibbs.

1197
00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:14,920
I think the guy that can be flashy is Devon Ekka. Yeah,

1198
00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:17,480
thank you, Ricky. I really believe like it is. I

1199
00:51:17,639 --> 00:51:21,119
think that kid has a bright future. Not just to

1200
00:51:21,199 --> 00:51:23,920
BA you. But in college football, this kid is he's

1201
00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:27,280
a workaholic man. He has a chip on his shoulder.

1202
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:31,599
Quick one step, he blitzes, he's to the house, puts

1203
00:51:31,639 --> 00:51:33,039
his foot in the dirt, and he's gone. I like

1204
00:51:33,159 --> 00:51:36,360
Makai Beckstead. I like what he brings. He's gonna have

1205
00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:38,119
to get the mission legs off. I like Logan Pain,

1206
00:51:38,199 --> 00:51:40,400
so I like the depth here. But g Man said it.

1207
00:51:40,519 --> 00:51:42,320
You know you got it. Logan Pain was hurt. How

1208
00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:44,559
many of these guys got hurt last year? Ba's you know,

1209
00:51:44,679 --> 00:51:46,960
running back room a lot. Press and Rex hurt, Javessa

1210
00:51:47,039 --> 00:51:50,280
Mooney hurt. Well, he fumbled, but maybe he wasn't hurt.

1211
00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:53,519
My apologies, Press and Rex hurt, Javessa de Mooney. You

1212
00:51:53,559 --> 00:51:55,320
know they're trying to give other guys opportunities. But and

1213
00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:56,719
I know he had fumbled, and they say, oh, well

1214
00:51:56,760 --> 00:51:58,599
he's not punished. Yeah, that's how it goes in a

1215
00:51:58,719 --> 00:52:01,199
rod system. If you fumble, you do you dude, sometimes

1216
00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:03,360
have to have accountability. So anymo was hurt. Don't know

1217
00:52:03,360 --> 00:52:05,039
what happened with Charles misk If he was hurt, Jiman,

1218
00:52:05,119 --> 00:52:06,880
tell me if he was. You just said Logan Pain

1219
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:08,800
was hurt. Lucky for now and there you go, like,

1220
00:52:08,920 --> 00:52:11,400
so you got to your entire room on top of

1221
00:52:11,559 --> 00:52:14,679
LG and Bear got nicked. So this addition, look, I

1222
00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:16,400
don't just want to say throwing a body in there,

1223
00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:18,159
but the production he had in high school and being

1224
00:52:18,159 --> 00:52:20,599
a good football player, this helps. This really does help,

1225
00:52:20,599 --> 00:52:22,599
because you need as many. I will finish it with

1226
00:52:22,679 --> 00:52:24,440
this and I'll start with you, Jimmy, and then go

1227
00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:27,480
to Caleb. Are you surprised that b what you has

1228
00:52:27,559 --> 00:52:30,599
declined to add a transfer running back from the portal

1229
00:52:30,639 --> 00:52:32,239
to this room. This is the one I think that

1230
00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:33,400
I'm still caught off guard by.

1231
00:52:34,039 --> 00:52:39,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I am. The difficulty in that is telling a guy, hey,

1232
00:52:39,639 --> 00:52:42,079
we want you to transfer over, but you got to

1233
00:52:42,119 --> 00:52:44,559
back up LJ. Martin. That's a that's a tough sell.

1234
00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:45,599
It's a tough sell.

1235
00:52:45,639 --> 00:52:47,559
Speaker 3: But networds at Kansas, Yeah, I.

1236
00:52:47,599 --> 00:52:51,239
Speaker 1: Think you could have sold that. So yeah, I think

1237
00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:54,800
you needed one. And yeah, if I'm gonna if I'm

1238
00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:57,239
gonna nitpick anything B way you did not accomplish in

1239
00:52:57,280 --> 00:52:59,679
the transfer portal. That's the one check mark that's not

1240
00:52:59,800 --> 00:53:02,800
check off. That doesn't make sense. That's the one box

1241
00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:04,960
that's not checked off. There you go That's what I

1242
00:53:05,079 --> 00:53:07,280
meant to say, And and yeah, it could be a

1243
00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:11,000
glaring a mission to what has otherwise been a fantastic

1244
00:53:11,079 --> 00:53:13,840
transfer portal exercise with B Way Football.

1245
00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:16,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, Caleb, go ahead your thoughts on that.

1246
00:53:17,079 --> 00:53:18,599
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it would have been nice to bring

1247
00:53:18,679 --> 00:53:21,320
in somebody, somebody that we could rely on immediately and

1248
00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:23,639
maybe not necessarily have to have that competition. But I

1249
00:53:23,719 --> 00:53:25,719
think about what Grinny was saying, right like, what are

1250
00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:28,760
you going to promise this individual? You've got Lgen who's

1251
00:53:28,760 --> 00:53:30,159
going to get the majority.

1252
00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:30,239
Speaker 1: Of the reps.

1253
00:53:30,480 --> 00:53:32,440
Speaker 5: Then you've got someone like Davon Echo, who you're just

1254
00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:34,719
talking about, who we're hopefully going to develop and maybe

1255
00:53:34,800 --> 00:53:36,760
make into our number one guy in the future. So

1256
00:53:37,199 --> 00:53:39,320
you're not necessarily promising somebody. I mean, I don't know

1257
00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:41,360
you promised anybody that comes in. Hey, you're going to

1258
00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:42,679
be a starter immediately, et cetera.

1259
00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:44,519
Speaker 3: No, NBA you said they don't do that.

1260
00:53:44,639 --> 00:53:45,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, we heard that j Hill quote.

1261
00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:47,599
Speaker 5: Right, we're saying if you want to just be promised it,

1262
00:53:47,679 --> 00:53:50,719
then maybe maybe this spot isn't for you. I'm butchering

1263
00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:52,360
that quote, but I think you know what I'm talking about.

1264
00:53:53,199 --> 00:53:54,400
In the off season last year.

1265
00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:54,880
Speaker 4: I think it was.

1266
00:53:55,360 --> 00:53:57,079
Speaker 5: But yeah, I just don't know what we would have

1267
00:53:57,119 --> 00:53:59,440
been able to promise somebody coming in from the transfer

1268
00:53:59,519 --> 00:54:01,519
portal as running back when you've got LJ and then

1269
00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:03,760
some people that were hoping to develop for the future.

1270
00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:06,599
So am I a little bit sad about it? Yeah,

1271
00:54:06,639 --> 00:54:08,239
I think it would have been nice to have somebody

1272
00:54:09,039 --> 00:54:10,719
to bring that one two punch with LJ.

1273
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:12,920
Speaker 4: Am I surprised, not necessarily, So.

1274
00:54:13,039 --> 00:54:14,719
Speaker 5: I'm still hopeful for what we can figure out with

1275
00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:16,760
what we've got who in that who we've got in

1276
00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:18,239
that room for the number two spot and.

1277
00:54:18,199 --> 00:54:20,280
Speaker 3: The whereas the Kalinie Sataki we knew you guys just

1278
00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:23,079
didn't know, but you got to see him. Look Preston Rex,

1279
00:54:23,119 --> 00:54:24,920
I still feel like he can give you something there.

1280
00:54:24,960 --> 00:54:27,320
We saw Javessa. He's earned the spots. So it's going

1281
00:54:27,400 --> 00:54:29,199
to be I think LJ. Devon and and you know,

1282
00:54:29,320 --> 00:54:31,679
I think Joe Vesa until you know, other guys show

1283
00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:33,320
that they're healthy at the press and Rex, I think

1284
00:54:33,320 --> 00:54:35,039
we'll be in the competition have something to say about it.

1285
00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:38,000
I think Logan pain will and I'm still a question

1286
00:54:38,079 --> 00:54:39,800
mark on see anymore. It's a question mark of I

1287
00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:42,079
don't think nice cable is just can he be healthy enough?

1288
00:54:42,119 --> 00:54:44,280
Because when he is, we saw what he was capable of.

1289
00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:46,320
You love to have everybody here in this running back

1290
00:54:46,360 --> 00:54:48,400
room and have a problem. But we'll see. But right now,

1291
00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:51,599
that's the projected running back room an addition of Makai Bex.

1292
00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:54,239
How do you feel about Bay's projected running back room

1293
00:54:54,559 --> 00:54:56,400
with the addition of Makai bex that let us know.

1294
00:54:56,559 --> 00:54:58,440
We'll put that out on social media. Crit A Bunjamin,

1332
00:56:36,280 --> 00:56:37,800
go some football for you. Guys talked a lot of

1333
00:56:37,840 --> 00:56:40,679
hoop yesterday. Want to stay on the topic of football

1334
00:56:40,719 --> 00:56:43,920
before we basketball. Maybe I'll get Gurney in Caleb's thoughts

1335
00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:47,599
on this twenty twenty five BAU Football impact live television

1336
00:56:47,880 --> 00:56:50,960
television viewership. Yes, this is the actual numbers. Now that

1337
00:56:51,039 --> 00:56:53,159
the season is over, check this out. I thought this

1338
00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:56,800
was crazy. So BAU thirty seven point seven million TV

1339
00:56:56,960 --> 00:57:01,480
viewerships in twenty twenty five, seventeen point seven million post

1340
00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:05,719
season viewership. That's a lot. And remember the Pop Tarts

1341
00:57:05,760 --> 00:57:08,800
Bowl is what bo You had social media reach three

1342
00:57:08,920 --> 00:57:11,960
hundred and two million totals nine point five to four

1343
00:57:12,079 --> 00:57:15,599
million totals in social media engagement in twenty twenty five,

1344
00:57:16,199 --> 00:57:19,400
nine point seven six million. That's the total social media

1345
00:57:20,480 --> 00:57:22,880
what is it? It's generated in twenty twenty five. All

1346
00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:26,280
these numbers are just ridiculous, like the news information when

1347
00:57:26,280 --> 00:57:28,519
you look at all of it, like the attendance. Total

1348
00:57:28,559 --> 00:57:31,199
attendances at BOU home games three hundred and eighty two thousand,

1349
00:57:31,239 --> 00:57:34,119
seven hundred and thirty three. The road attendance is ridiculous

1350
00:57:34,159 --> 00:57:36,840
as well, three hundred and seven thousand, two hundred and one.

1351
00:57:37,119 --> 00:57:39,880
The average home attendance was sixty two thousand, seven hundred

1352
00:57:39,920 --> 00:57:42,960
eighty nine. G Man, Caleb, please look up what is

1353
00:57:43,119 --> 00:57:46,519
how much lavel Ever Stadium or VIC seats? Because is

1354
00:57:46,599 --> 00:57:50,079
that a sellout? Pretty much every game ranks top twenty

1355
00:57:50,119 --> 00:57:52,760
five and higher. C Yeah, like this, I mean one

1356
00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:55,079
hundred and two seven point six percentage of the home

1357
00:57:55,159 --> 00:57:57,440
stadium capacity. So yeah, this is you're pretty much getting

1358
00:57:57,440 --> 00:57:59,280
to sell out every single game. And then the big

1359
00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:05,000
twelve Championshi of attendants eighty nineteen GM. Your thoughts on

1360
00:58:05,079 --> 00:58:06,960
all of that, BA, you just killed it this year

1361
00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:08,280
with the viewership and attendants.

1362
00:58:08,599 --> 00:58:11,519
Speaker 1: Well, I think what BWA You's done really well is

1363
00:58:11,679 --> 00:58:15,840
the on game production day experience is nice. The game.

1364
00:58:16,119 --> 00:58:17,960
They've really upped that, and I think they've done it

1365
00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:19,880
in a smart way because BWA is never going to

1366
00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:23,760
be a pregame destination. You're just tell game is not

1367
00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:26,559
a thing at BYU never, So what do you do?

1368
00:58:26,760 --> 00:58:30,280
You enhance the show during the game, and it's phenomenal.

1369
00:58:30,639 --> 00:58:32,360
They spend a lot of money, but I think it's

1370
00:58:32,719 --> 00:58:36,119
worth it. In every regard, there's tradition, there's things to

1371
00:58:36,159 --> 00:58:40,559
look forward to. That fourth quarter break is phenomenal. I

1372
00:58:40,679 --> 00:58:44,360
love what they do with the fire dancing and Cosmo

1373
00:58:44,440 --> 00:58:45,559
with the drums. It's great.

1374
00:58:45,679 --> 00:58:48,039
Speaker 3: Lad lights on the field and on the flags.

1375
00:58:48,119 --> 00:58:53,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's tradition and it's great. It's a lot of fun,

1376
00:58:53,400 --> 00:58:55,079
and it's a hard thing to do in this day

1377
00:58:55,119 --> 00:58:58,000
and age is making a game to experience fun and

1378
00:58:58,079 --> 00:59:01,039
BA You's done that really really well, So props to them.

1379
00:59:01,159 --> 00:59:03,760
And plus it helps when the football team's really good.

1380
00:59:04,480 --> 00:59:07,000
But this coming year, I can't think of a home

1381
00:59:07,119 --> 00:59:10,039
schedule that's been more sexy than what we're gonna see

1382
00:59:10,039 --> 00:59:13,519
in twenty twenty more sexy? Are you kidding me? You

1383
00:59:13,599 --> 00:59:18,079
get both the Arizona schools and Notre Dame. Stop it,

1384
00:59:18,599 --> 00:59:21,039
come on, are you kidding me? It'd be better if

1385
00:59:21,079 --> 00:59:25,400
you had Utah home, obviously, but yeah, sixty three five,

1386
00:59:25,920 --> 00:59:28,719
Ronnie is what Laville Edwards sixty three five?

1387
00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:30,039
Speaker 3: So there you go sixty or three five.

1388
00:59:30,119 --> 00:59:34,960
Speaker 1: So it's but the key things the product. Oh yeah,

1389
00:59:35,159 --> 00:59:37,320
b Way's winning. Fans want to.

1390
00:59:37,519 --> 00:59:39,559
Speaker 3: When you win, people show up like I'll ask you,

1391
00:59:39,679 --> 00:59:41,719
Caleb Lions this. I saw you at the basketball game.

1392
00:59:41,760 --> 00:59:43,679
We chopped it up for a little bit, like give

1393
00:59:43,719 --> 00:59:45,679
me your thoughts on the game day atmosphere. I don't

1394
00:59:45,679 --> 00:59:47,079
know if you've been to a football game this year,

1395
00:59:47,119 --> 00:59:48,920
but if you have, you and the kids. I mean

1396
00:59:49,599 --> 00:59:52,400
that atmosphere is for everybody. Everybody loves it. Even opposing

1397
00:59:52,480 --> 00:59:55,159
media that comes says it's the best drop back in

1398
00:59:55,199 --> 00:59:57,239
college football first of all, and then it's the best

1399
00:59:57,239 --> 00:59:58,480
atmosphere they've seen this far.

1400
00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:01,039
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's funny you bring that up. I had the

1401
01:00:01,079 --> 01:00:04,480
season football tickets this last year with some uncles and

1402
01:00:04,559 --> 01:00:07,000
a cousin. Wasn't able to bring my kids to all

1403
01:00:07,039 --> 01:00:10,000
the games. But what's funny is what I would be

1404
01:00:10,119 --> 01:00:12,840
recording was the in between stuff, right like the three

1405
01:00:12,920 --> 01:00:15,599
minute timeouts or the halftime or the fourth quarter show.

1406
01:00:15,920 --> 01:00:17,719
I was recording that for my kids because they wanted

1407
01:00:17,800 --> 01:00:19,440
to see it. Like Cosmo would come up next to

1408
01:00:19,679 --> 01:00:22,119
up the aisle next to me. I'm recording Cosmo at

1409
01:00:22,119 --> 01:00:23,880
the top of the stadium with the drums. I'm recording

1410
01:00:23,920 --> 01:00:27,000
the fireworks and when I get home, they better I

1411
01:00:27,079 --> 01:00:29,239
better have had a video fresh from that game.

1412
01:00:29,079 --> 01:00:30,320
Speaker 4: On my phone when I get back, because that's what

1413
01:00:30,440 --> 01:00:32,840
my kids wanted to see. So that entertainment.

1414
01:00:32,920 --> 01:00:35,159
Speaker 5: I think it's working for not just children, but for

1415
01:00:35,400 --> 01:00:39,880
all all sports, all types of people, all different ages. Yeah,

1416
01:00:40,039 --> 01:00:42,519
I think it's a great great environment, great impact. I

1417
01:00:42,599 --> 01:00:44,320
really like what they're doing, the direction they're taking it,

1418
01:00:44,559 --> 01:00:46,440
and that fourth quarter stuff. I mean, even if you're

1419
01:00:46,480 --> 01:00:48,000
losing a game, how do you not get hyped up

1420
01:00:48,039 --> 01:00:49,000
at the beginning.

1421
01:00:48,760 --> 01:00:49,400
Speaker 4: Of the fourth quarter.

1422
01:00:49,679 --> 01:00:52,000
Speaker 3: It does a great job. David does a great job,

1423

01:01:10,280 --> 01:01:11,679
give Creed to say that you do have to win

1431
01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:13,639
and people want to see it. But all of that

1432
01:01:14,119 --> 01:01:16,880
combined together is for all these fantastic numbers. Bo you
