1
00:00:03.040 --> 00:00:07.160
<v Speaker 1>It's time for coffee and company, fueled by Thornton's on

2
00:00:07.360 --> 00:00:23.359
<v Speaker 1>Sports Talk seven nine day. Now here's Nick Coffee.

3
00:00:24.920 --> 00:00:29.519
<v Speaker 2>During our first few breaks, I spent my time doing

4
00:00:29.519 --> 00:00:32.240
<v Speaker 2>some research, trying to get a better feel for what

5
00:00:32.320 --> 00:00:34.560
<v Speaker 2>I wanted to wager on, not only tonight, but some

6
00:00:34.640 --> 00:00:38.600
<v Speaker 2>games tomorrow when it comes to college football. But towards

7
00:00:38.600 --> 00:00:40.600
<v Speaker 2>the last you know, four minutes or so of that break,

8
00:00:40.600 --> 00:00:42.520
<v Speaker 2>which was a good chunk of that commercial break, I

9
00:00:42.679 --> 00:00:45.439
<v Speaker 2>was distracted by a different story, this one coming from

10
00:00:45.759 --> 00:00:51.000
<v Speaker 2>our own backyard. Here WDRB headline. Police looking for person

11
00:00:51.039 --> 00:00:55.960
<v Speaker 2>who's allegedly been pooping on porches in Old Louisville. You

12
00:00:56.000 --> 00:00:59.359
<v Speaker 2>know that's got to be Dwight Whitten, right, They're on

13
00:00:59.479 --> 00:01:01.920
<v Speaker 2>to him, says here. The Little Metro Police Department is

14
00:01:01.920 --> 00:01:04.400
<v Speaker 2>looking for someone who's accused of repeatedly pooping. Oh, it's

15
00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:07.680
<v Speaker 2>the same person's porch. The person has allegedly been pooping

16
00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:09.239
<v Speaker 2>on a porch in Old Louisville. There are at least

17
00:01:09.280 --> 00:01:12.239
<v Speaker 2>two reports filed from the person who lives in the

18
00:01:12.239 --> 00:01:15.239
<v Speaker 2>twelve hundred block of South first Street. Another was taken

19
00:01:15.480 --> 00:01:17.599
<v Speaker 2>by an officer Wednesday. It's unknown at this time with

20
00:01:17.680 --> 00:01:20.480
<v Speaker 2>the suspect looks like Anyone with information is asked to

21
00:01:20.480 --> 00:01:22.760
<v Speaker 2>call the department's anonymous crime tip line five O two

22
00:01:23.959 --> 00:01:27.359
<v Speaker 2>five O'T two five seven four LMPD. So a very

23
00:01:27.359 --> 00:01:29.680
<v Speaker 2>short story that they clearly know is going to be

24
00:01:30.120 --> 00:01:32.400
<v Speaker 2>clicked on by a lot of people like me. Not

25
00:01:32.519 --> 00:01:35.680
<v Speaker 2>often you see that, but yeah, you know, what's the charge?

26
00:01:36.359 --> 00:01:36.439
<v Speaker 3>Like?

27
00:01:36.599 --> 00:01:37.840
<v Speaker 2>Is that indecent exposure?

28
00:01:37.959 --> 00:01:39.840
<v Speaker 4>Is that you couldn't you might be able to get

29
00:01:39.879 --> 00:01:41.400
<v Speaker 4>multiple things with that, Like.

30
00:01:41.519 --> 00:01:44.120
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I know people was passing. What is the

31
00:01:44.239 --> 00:01:50.920
<v Speaker 2>charge if you poop in public? What could I be

32
00:01:51.040 --> 00:01:54.280
<v Speaker 2>charged with if I was to poop in public? Quick

33
00:01:54.319 --> 00:01:58.799
<v Speaker 2>Google search here. I'm not saying anything that it says

34
00:01:58.799 --> 00:02:01.000
<v Speaker 2>public dedication is a legal goal no matter where you

35
00:02:01.040 --> 00:02:04.920
<v Speaker 2>do it. It's vandalism charge in certain states.

36
00:02:05.560 --> 00:02:06.200
<v Speaker 4>That makes sense.

37
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:07.359
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I guess I could see so.

38
00:02:07.359 --> 00:02:10.159
<v Speaker 4>So yeah, especially if it's you could use as like graffiti,

39
00:02:10.759 --> 00:02:12.439
<v Speaker 4>which that would be taken into another level.

40
00:02:12.680 --> 00:02:15.759
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I don't have any enemies, at least not

41
00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:17.479
<v Speaker 2>that I know of, not from my end. Maybe there

42
00:02:17.479 --> 00:02:20.560
<v Speaker 2>are people who view me as an enemy. But if

43
00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:23.520
<v Speaker 2>I had enemies and I wanted to, you know, do

44
00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:26.080
<v Speaker 2>something to to really stick it to them in a

45
00:02:26.080 --> 00:02:30.000
<v Speaker 2>way that would never cross my mind. But it's you know,

46
00:02:30.080 --> 00:02:33.159
<v Speaker 2>it clearly is not something people like to walk out

47
00:02:33.159 --> 00:02:35.479
<v Speaker 2>of their front door at their home and you know

48
00:02:36.039 --> 00:02:39.360
<v Speaker 2>see human feces. So like, you know, if it's a

49
00:02:39.439 --> 00:02:42.080
<v Speaker 2>random attack just because you want to mess with something stranger,

50
00:02:43.360 --> 00:02:47.039
<v Speaker 2>you know, that's weird. It's weird regardless, but like, you know,

51
00:02:47.240 --> 00:02:48.840
<v Speaker 2>maybe that is a way to where you can like

52
00:02:48.840 --> 00:02:50.919
<v Speaker 2>nobody would ever think of it, but that that if

53
00:02:50.960 --> 00:02:55.639
<v Speaker 2>you want to cause some some some inconvenience to somebody

54
00:02:55.639 --> 00:02:58.919
<v Speaker 2>that you don't like, pooping on their porch repeatedly, could

55
00:02:58.960 --> 00:02:59.719
<v Speaker 2>probably do that.

56
00:02:59.800 --> 00:03:02.479
<v Speaker 4>Right, Imagine if this person had like a ring doorbell

57
00:03:02.520 --> 00:03:04.319
<v Speaker 4>and you could watch the evidence.

58
00:03:05.039 --> 00:03:07.479
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean they might and they just they're just

59
00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:12.919
<v Speaker 2>disguising themselves. Maybe you're also leaving DNA behind, that's true, Like,

60
00:03:12.960 --> 00:03:15.159
<v Speaker 2>but they wouldn't do that, right, Like, Hey, we think

61
00:03:15.159 --> 00:03:20.360
<v Speaker 2>it's you, but we don't know for sure. To prove

62
00:03:20.400 --> 00:03:23.280
<v Speaker 2>your innocence, will you provide a school sample? Like that

63
00:03:23.280 --> 00:03:26.240
<v Speaker 2>would never happen, right, it might. It's getting really gross.

64
00:03:26.240 --> 00:03:28.639
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry. You know, there's certain things you never like.

65
00:03:29.159 --> 00:03:32.080
<v Speaker 2>I always go back to the airport guy. There's no

66
00:03:32.280 --> 00:03:34.960
<v Speaker 2>more helpless place in the world than being at an airport,

67
00:03:34.960 --> 00:03:38.159
<v Speaker 2>because you have no clue if you're gonna get off

68
00:03:38.479 --> 00:03:40.199
<v Speaker 2>the ground on your flight on time, you have no

69
00:03:40.360 --> 00:03:42.000
<v Speaker 2>mean like and and they're just gonna tell you the

70
00:03:42.039 --> 00:03:43.599
<v Speaker 2>way it is, and that's what you're gonna do. You're

71
00:03:43.599 --> 00:03:45.560
<v Speaker 2>just gonna have to deal with it. That's why people

72
00:03:45.879 --> 00:03:48.520
<v Speaker 2>lose their minds in airports, and they become a version

73
00:03:48.560 --> 00:03:50.439
<v Speaker 2>of themselves they didn't know existed because they were pushed

74
00:03:50.479 --> 00:03:53.199
<v Speaker 2>too far. And that's like the guy in Nashville years ago,

75
00:03:53.240 --> 00:03:55.039
<v Speaker 2>who he got so mad at an airport. What's he

76
00:03:55.080 --> 00:03:56.960
<v Speaker 2>gonna do? Tell him he's not gonna fly anymore, Like

77
00:03:57.280 --> 00:04:00.599
<v Speaker 2>you know, you don't. They're not by if you decide

78
00:04:00.599 --> 00:04:03.120
<v Speaker 2>you're not gonna fly with him anymore. So you know

79
00:04:03.120 --> 00:04:04.879
<v Speaker 2>what he did, He just got button naked and that

80
00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:08.080
<v Speaker 2>and that got attention from everybody there to know just

81
00:04:08.080 --> 00:04:09.759
<v Speaker 2>how upset and how bothered he was.

82
00:04:11.400 --> 00:04:14.919
<v Speaker 4>You all right, John, No, I just remind it reminds

83
00:04:15.039 --> 00:04:18.319
<v Speaker 4>me of the Morgan Wall and not impersonator, but the

84
00:04:18.360 --> 00:04:20.439
<v Speaker 4>guy who looked like Morgan Wall and walking downtown. It

85
00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:21.240
<v Speaker 4>was button naked.

86
00:04:21.639 --> 00:04:23.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but I kind of feel like he got like

87
00:04:23.439 --> 00:04:24.199
<v Speaker 2>robbed or something.

88
00:04:24.439 --> 00:04:25.160
<v Speaker 3>He might have been.

89
00:04:25.279 --> 00:04:27.279
<v Speaker 2>I mean, although he wasn't really walking with a big

90
00:04:27.319 --> 00:04:29.360
<v Speaker 2>pep in his step, but like to me, it looked

91
00:04:29.399 --> 00:04:32.480
<v Speaker 2>like he initially it was like somebody who'd escaped from

92
00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:34.800
<v Speaker 2>somewhere where he'd been stripped naked and like tied up

93
00:04:34.879 --> 00:04:37.000
<v Speaker 2>or something. I don't know, maybe it was a wild

94
00:04:37.120 --> 00:04:39.639
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that is sad. I mean, I always advocate

95
00:04:39.920 --> 00:04:42.199
<v Speaker 2>for people to come enjoy downtown because I believe it

96
00:04:42.279 --> 00:04:45.759
<v Speaker 2>or not, Like we are downtown every day, and like,

97
00:04:45.839 --> 00:04:47.680
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't shock me that when we leave here at six

98
00:04:47.720 --> 00:04:50.600
<v Speaker 2>o'clock on a Friday afternoon, four Street Live is gonna

99
00:04:50.639 --> 00:04:53.319
<v Speaker 2>be gonna be popping because people who come to Louisville

100
00:04:53.319 --> 00:04:55.680
<v Speaker 2>and are staying downtown for whatever reason, they come to

101
00:04:55.680 --> 00:04:57.040
<v Speaker 2>four Street and there's a lot of stuff going on.

102
00:04:57.199 --> 00:05:01.319
<v Speaker 2>So I always want people to give downtown a shot. Again,

103
00:05:01.319 --> 00:05:03.720
<v Speaker 2>if you've decided to not come because you are fearful

104
00:05:03.759 --> 00:05:06.639
<v Speaker 2>of safety and you think it's some boarded up war zone,

105
00:05:06.680 --> 00:05:09.519
<v Speaker 2>because you know it's not. There's crime in every part

106
00:05:09.560 --> 00:05:14.040
<v Speaker 2>of the city unfortunately. But then again, you know, every

107
00:05:14.040 --> 00:05:16.120
<v Speaker 2>now and then, when I'm driving out of here to leave,

108
00:05:17.560 --> 00:05:20.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm thinking, Okay, maybe I now have a better understanding

109
00:05:20.040 --> 00:05:22.519
<v Speaker 2>as to why people are so worried about downtown because

110
00:05:22.519 --> 00:05:24.519
<v Speaker 2>you know, you turn right on any block in downtown,

111
00:05:24.560 --> 00:05:26.879
<v Speaker 2>you might see somebody taking a dump on the sidewalk,

112
00:05:26.879 --> 00:05:27.639
<v Speaker 2>and like that's.

113
00:05:27.800 --> 00:05:29.639
<v Speaker 4>And there's a stench downtown right now. I think it's

114
00:05:29.639 --> 00:05:33.000
<v Speaker 4>always like a rain, it's pretty nasty, depending on which

115
00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:33.680
<v Speaker 4>street you're going down.

116
00:05:33.759 --> 00:05:35.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they explain that to us at one point as

117
00:05:35.759 --> 00:05:37.879
<v Speaker 2>far as the sewers. Yeah, like if we don't get

118
00:05:37.920 --> 00:05:40.600
<v Speaker 2>a lot of rain gets it gets to stinking pretty

119
00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:42.800
<v Speaker 2>bad down here, especially when you get close to me.

120
00:05:42.959 --> 00:05:44.839
<v Speaker 2>You add that kind of a stench mixed in with

121
00:05:44.879 --> 00:05:47.120
<v Speaker 2>what you get in Butchertown. Yike, Oh, we have a

122
00:05:47.160 --> 00:05:49.480
<v Speaker 2>pig stink, stink, stinky, very stinky.

123
00:05:50.040 --> 00:05:50.319
<v Speaker 3>All right.

124
00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:53.160
<v Speaker 2>It's Coffee and Company. We are fueled by Thornton's here

125
00:05:53.199 --> 00:05:55.000
<v Speaker 2>on Sports Talk seven to ninety nit coffee. That's me

126
00:05:55.040 --> 00:05:57.639
<v Speaker 2>the company man John Aud alongside today as we take

127
00:05:57.680 --> 00:06:00.839
<v Speaker 2>you up until six o'clock. Show is going to start

128
00:06:00.839 --> 00:06:03.600
<v Speaker 2>at eleven o'clock tomorrow with myself. It is the Louisville

129
00:06:03.600 --> 00:06:06.680
<v Speaker 2>Football pregame Show presented by Pellow Windows and Doors of

130
00:06:06.680 --> 00:06:10.480
<v Speaker 2>Central Kentucky as well as Jefferson Animal Hospital and then

131
00:06:10.480 --> 00:06:12.560
<v Speaker 2>we'll have postgame show as soon as it ends. So

132
00:06:13.279 --> 00:06:15.920
<v Speaker 2>we'll be here up until kickoff and then come right

133
00:06:15.959 --> 00:06:17.439
<v Speaker 2>back as soon as it ends, and we'll react to

134
00:06:17.480 --> 00:06:20.399
<v Speaker 2>whatever happens. Louisville right now favored about thirty seven points

135
00:06:20.439 --> 00:06:23.639
<v Speaker 2>in this matchup with Austin p a game that you

136
00:06:23.680 --> 00:06:26.480
<v Speaker 2>know shouldn't be that close. And I am hoping that

137
00:06:26.560 --> 00:06:29.439
<v Speaker 2>when they do start dominating this team, which I hope

138
00:06:29.439 --> 00:06:32.279
<v Speaker 2>they do, the fact that it's new pieces, right, it's

139
00:06:32.279 --> 00:06:36.120
<v Speaker 2>new players we've never watched before, that will sort of

140
00:06:36.199 --> 00:06:40.120
<v Speaker 2>minimize the ho hum that I usually have whenever you

141
00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:43.480
<v Speaker 2>see your team do things like that against inferior competition. Again,

142
00:06:43.519 --> 00:06:46.680
<v Speaker 2>it's good to see, but what really, And it's just

143
00:06:46.680 --> 00:06:49.240
<v Speaker 2>everybody's different, right, Like maybe you like watching your teams

144
00:06:49.319 --> 00:06:51.680
<v Speaker 2>play these games because it's stress free for you and

145
00:06:51.720 --> 00:06:53.120
<v Speaker 2>you know at the end of the day you're gonna

146
00:06:53.160 --> 00:06:56.800
<v Speaker 2>win by a lot and that's fine. But where I

147
00:06:56.839 --> 00:06:59.399
<v Speaker 2>find myself during games like this, thinking like, all right,

148
00:06:59.399 --> 00:07:01.800
<v Speaker 2>calm down, Nick, don't overreact to anything good or bad.

149
00:07:02.079 --> 00:07:04.040
<v Speaker 2>Is like, if they don't get a third down conversion

150
00:07:04.040 --> 00:07:05.680
<v Speaker 2>and they have to pun against a team like this,

151
00:07:06.199 --> 00:07:08.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, I guess the offense really sucks this year.

152
00:07:08.959 --> 00:07:10.920
<v Speaker 2>Got a pun against this team, And again, that's an

153
00:07:10.959 --> 00:07:12.560
<v Speaker 2>insane way to look at it, but I'm you know,

154
00:07:12.600 --> 00:07:16.639
<v Speaker 2>I'm an insane person, I guess. So last year they

155
00:07:16.680 --> 00:07:19.920
<v Speaker 2>played ten quarterbacks in their game against an FCS opponent

156
00:07:19.959 --> 00:07:21.360
<v Speaker 2>that was Murray State. I don't know if we'll see

157
00:07:21.360 --> 00:07:23.240
<v Speaker 2>that tomorrow because I don't think there's ten quarterbacks on

158
00:07:23.240 --> 00:07:26.560
<v Speaker 2>the roster, but I'm hopeful we see a beat down

159
00:07:26.600 --> 00:07:29.959
<v Speaker 2>and we get this thing started with, you know, these

160
00:07:30.000 --> 00:07:33.000
<v Speaker 2>guys having an opportunity to, you know, just get a

161
00:07:33.000 --> 00:07:35.279
<v Speaker 2>game under their belt against a team that probably won't

162
00:07:35.360 --> 00:07:39.199
<v Speaker 2>challenge them really at all, and establish some confidence, continue

163
00:07:39.240 --> 00:07:41.920
<v Speaker 2>to build that continuity. You know, obviously they've played together

164
00:07:41.959 --> 00:07:44.120
<v Speaker 2>throughout the spring and in fall camp, but now you've

165
00:07:44.120 --> 00:07:46.040
<v Speaker 2>got a chance to go do it against a real opponent.

166
00:07:46.120 --> 00:07:49.319
<v Speaker 2>So for me, it may not mean a whole lot

167
00:07:49.360 --> 00:07:53.360
<v Speaker 2>in regards to where everybody truly stands on the depth chart,

168
00:07:53.720 --> 00:07:57.560
<v Speaker 2>but you're gonna see a lot of guys playing tomorrow,

169
00:07:57.639 --> 00:07:59.560
<v Speaker 2>not just because you potentially are gonna be up by

170
00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:03.600
<v Speaker 2>a bunch, but I think they've got first string guys

171
00:08:03.639 --> 00:08:05.079
<v Speaker 2>on the depth chart. By the way, Jef brom does

172
00:08:05.120 --> 00:08:07.319
<v Speaker 2>not release the depth chart, so are like, we'll know

173
00:08:07.439 --> 00:08:09.759
<v Speaker 2>tomorrow when we see who's out there who in fact

174
00:08:09.879 --> 00:08:12.879
<v Speaker 2>ended up being the starter at certain positions. And I

175
00:08:12.920 --> 00:08:15.759
<v Speaker 2>think right now, on both sides of the ball, maybe

176
00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:18.480
<v Speaker 2>more so on defense, but on both sides of the ball,

177
00:08:19.079 --> 00:08:21.600
<v Speaker 2>you've got a one in two that really I think

178
00:08:21.639 --> 00:08:23.879
<v Speaker 2>the staff doesn't seem much of a difference at all.

179
00:08:24.560 --> 00:08:26.680
<v Speaker 2>They may give the nod to somebody who maybe most

180
00:08:26.720 --> 00:08:29.879
<v Speaker 2>recently had a better practice, or maybe just as more experienced,

181
00:08:31.279 --> 00:08:33.559
<v Speaker 2>and yet you know they're gonna let them get out

182
00:08:33.559 --> 00:08:36.159
<v Speaker 2>there and play. Again, it's against an inferior opponent, but

183
00:08:36.600 --> 00:08:38.120
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's good to have that depth to by

184
00:08:38.159 --> 00:08:40.919
<v Speaker 2>the way, but I would say the coaching staff is

185
00:08:40.960 --> 00:08:43.000
<v Speaker 2>probably looking at this as a chance to say, Okay,

186
00:08:43.000 --> 00:08:46.000
<v Speaker 2>these guys in practice are pretty are pretty close their

187
00:08:46.039 --> 00:08:48.120
<v Speaker 2>neck and neck, and we feel good about putting them

188
00:08:48.120 --> 00:08:49.639
<v Speaker 2>both out there on the field. But let's see if

189
00:08:49.639 --> 00:08:51.879
<v Speaker 2>that if that remains the case whenever you end up

190
00:08:51.919 --> 00:08:55.919
<v Speaker 2>playing against a different team. So I also hope that

191
00:08:55.919 --> 00:08:59.120
<v Speaker 2>they're up big to where you can get real reps

192
00:08:59.120 --> 00:09:02.279
<v Speaker 2>for Pierce Clarkson. You know, I you never talk about

193
00:09:02.279 --> 00:09:05.360
<v Speaker 2>the backup quarterback situation until you have to. And usually

194
00:09:05.399 --> 00:09:07.279
<v Speaker 2>when you have to talk about the backup quarterback situation,

195
00:09:07.320 --> 00:09:10.679
<v Speaker 2>it's because your guy stinks or there's an injury. I

196
00:09:10.720 --> 00:09:12.320
<v Speaker 2>would say if one of those two things ends up

197
00:09:12.360 --> 00:09:14.399
<v Speaker 2>playing out, it's likely going to be an injury for

198
00:09:14.480 --> 00:09:16.600
<v Speaker 2>Tyler Shuck, which again, just because you've been injured a

199
00:09:16.600 --> 00:09:18.639
<v Speaker 2>bunch doesn't mean you're going to get injured again. Clearly,

200
00:09:18.679 --> 00:09:21.240
<v Speaker 2>he has a history of being injury prone. But you

201
00:09:21.960 --> 00:09:24.240
<v Speaker 2>want to know what you got as a backup, and

202
00:09:24.320 --> 00:09:27.639
<v Speaker 2>you oftentimes don't get a chance to learn that until

203
00:09:27.799 --> 00:09:29.720
<v Speaker 2>something bad happens, right because you once you're started to

204
00:09:29.720 --> 00:09:31.159
<v Speaker 2>be healthy. Because he won the job for a reason,

205
00:09:31.200 --> 00:09:34.039
<v Speaker 2>he's your best quarterback. So I hope Tyler Shuck plays

206
00:09:34.080 --> 00:09:36.200
<v Speaker 2>well in the first half to where Louisville's blowing this

207
00:09:36.279 --> 00:09:38.399
<v Speaker 2>team off the floor or feel I should say, it's

208
00:09:38.399 --> 00:09:41.679
<v Speaker 2>not basketball and you get Pierce Clarkson in there to play,

209
00:09:41.919 --> 00:09:45.120
<v Speaker 2>you know, the rest of the game. I know, obviously

210
00:09:45.200 --> 00:09:46.960
<v Speaker 2>Jeff will put other guys if they're up big, He'll

211
00:09:46.960 --> 00:09:50.240
<v Speaker 2>play a lot of guys. But I would love for

212
00:09:50.519 --> 00:09:52.879
<v Speaker 2>this to be a season where Louisville is not in

213
00:09:53.960 --> 00:09:56.759
<v Speaker 2>super close games to where your starter's got to play

214
00:09:56.759 --> 00:09:59.159
<v Speaker 2>the whole game because you the game is still within reach.

215
00:09:59.200 --> 00:09:59.279
<v Speaker 3>Now.

216
00:09:59.320 --> 00:10:00.600
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to act like Louisville is such a

217
00:10:00.639 --> 00:10:02.480
<v Speaker 2>dominant team that they're going to be blowing everybody out.

218
00:10:02.759 --> 00:10:06.039
<v Speaker 2>But like last year when you played Indiana, no offense

219
00:10:06.039 --> 00:10:08.120
<v Speaker 2>in Indiana. But given the way that season played out,

220
00:10:08.480 --> 00:10:11.200
<v Speaker 2>you know, nobody would have been shocked had Louisville had

221
00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:13.519
<v Speaker 2>especially after the way the first half win. Had Louisville

222
00:10:13.519 --> 00:10:15.720
<v Speaker 2>been up, you know, thirty five to seven in the

223
00:10:15.720 --> 00:10:18.159
<v Speaker 2>fourth quarter, you could have put you could have put

224
00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:20.000
<v Speaker 2>your backup in and you know, kind of seen what

225
00:10:20.039 --> 00:10:22.039
<v Speaker 2>you had. Now, last year's little different because you're backup.

226
00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:27.679
<v Speaker 2>At that time, it was either going to be brock Doman, Yeah,

227
00:10:27.720 --> 00:10:30.799
<v Speaker 2>brock Doman, as well as Evan Conley, who was still there.

228
00:10:31.399 --> 00:10:34.120
<v Speaker 2>So this year, though, you know, I think it's important

229
00:10:34.159 --> 00:10:36.200
<v Speaker 2>to get Pierce reps. Now, you can't do that just

230
00:10:36.240 --> 00:10:38.519
<v Speaker 2>because you know you gotta win. But like last year,

231
00:10:38.559 --> 00:10:40.200
<v Speaker 2>I feel like, you know, they weren't able to put

232
00:10:40.200 --> 00:10:43.879
<v Speaker 2>anybody in unless you know it was a designed package

233
00:10:43.919 --> 00:10:46.519
<v Speaker 2>because they you know, they they for example, they would

234
00:10:46.519 --> 00:10:47.960
<v Speaker 2>put Evan Conley in there in the red zone because

235
00:10:48.000 --> 00:10:49.600
<v Speaker 2>he was pretty good at reading it and running in

236
00:10:49.639 --> 00:10:51.840
<v Speaker 2>for a touchdown. But you know, tomorrow, there's no there's

237
00:10:51.879 --> 00:10:54.320
<v Speaker 2>gonna be no better opportunity than tomorrow to be up

238
00:10:54.320 --> 00:10:57.080
<v Speaker 2>big and let Pierce Clarkson just get some real meaningful reps. Now,

239
00:10:57.080 --> 00:10:59.240
<v Speaker 2>again it's against an FCS team, and if he puts

240
00:10:59.279 --> 00:11:01.600
<v Speaker 2>up good numbers, that'll encouraging. But again it's you know,

241
00:11:01.759 --> 00:11:06.360
<v Speaker 2>it's it's Austin p But I really hope that this

242
00:11:06.480 --> 00:11:11.480
<v Speaker 2>game Jacksonville State next week, and then the worst teams

243
00:11:11.519 --> 00:11:14.360
<v Speaker 2>you play that are in your conference, like maybe Boston College,

244
00:11:14.399 --> 00:11:16.039
<v Speaker 2>maybe because you beat the hell out of them last

245
00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:20.440
<v Speaker 2>year and played your backups. Maybe I don't know, Virginia,

246
00:11:20.480 --> 00:11:22.080
<v Speaker 2>who's supposed to be the worst team in the league

247
00:11:22.120 --> 00:11:24.360
<v Speaker 2>according to everybody. Like I hope those are games to

248
00:11:24.399 --> 00:11:26.320
<v Speaker 2>where when you get to the fourth quarter, you do

249
00:11:26.399 --> 00:11:29.320
<v Speaker 2>in fact have a big enough lead to where Brock

250
00:11:29.600 --> 00:11:33.799
<v Speaker 2>not Brock, but Pierce gets legitimate reps to where when

251
00:11:33.840 --> 00:11:37.039
<v Speaker 2>you do hit the offseason, you could think to yourself, Okay,

252
00:11:37.600 --> 00:11:39.039
<v Speaker 2>we'll see what's out there in the portal, But we

253
00:11:39.080 --> 00:11:41.399
<v Speaker 2>really like this guy. He's been here for two years

254
00:11:41.480 --> 00:11:44.039
<v Speaker 2>learning the offense. He was a highly regarded quarterback. We're

255
00:11:44.039 --> 00:11:45.960
<v Speaker 2>gonna hand the reins off to him and it's gonna

256
00:11:45.960 --> 00:11:48.080
<v Speaker 2>be his time. I hope that plays out that way.

257
00:11:48.120 --> 00:11:50.159
<v Speaker 2>But then again, I think you could do all that.

258
00:11:50.639 --> 00:11:53.759
<v Speaker 2>But if you as a head coach, and especially one

259
00:11:53.799 --> 00:11:56.399
<v Speaker 2>like Jeff brom who's very you know, very much known

260
00:11:56.440 --> 00:11:59.240
<v Speaker 2>for his offensive play calling and he was a quarterback himself,

261
00:11:59.879 --> 00:12:02.279
<v Speaker 2>they love Pierce, it'll be hard for you not to

262
00:12:02.320 --> 00:12:04.480
<v Speaker 2>look in the portal and see who's there and potentially

263
00:12:04.480 --> 00:12:06.320
<v Speaker 2>want to go at somebody, because like, that's just what

264
00:12:06.399 --> 00:12:08.399
<v Speaker 2>this is now, which, by the way, that gives me

265
00:12:08.399 --> 00:12:10.159
<v Speaker 2>a chance to bring this up. So a really good

266
00:12:10.159 --> 00:12:13.360
<v Speaker 2>write up from Ross Dellingser at Yahoo Sports about the

267
00:12:13.399 --> 00:12:16.240
<v Speaker 2>transfer portal and what it means for quarterbacks. So forty

268
00:12:16.279 --> 00:12:20.320
<v Speaker 2>three transfer quarterbacks are expected to start among the sixty

269
00:12:20.360 --> 00:12:25.960
<v Speaker 2>eight Power Conference teams. That's sixty three percent, and it's

270
00:12:26.159 --> 00:12:30.360
<v Speaker 2>probably the most glaring sign yet of the transient era

271
00:12:30.440 --> 00:12:33.879
<v Speaker 2>of college football. And I'm reading that directly from his piece,

272
00:12:33.919 --> 00:12:35.759
<v Speaker 2>and I think he's spot on. So thirty of those

273
00:12:35.799 --> 00:12:39.480
<v Speaker 2>forty three projected transfer starters are in their first year

274
00:12:39.519 --> 00:12:42.480
<v Speaker 2>at their new school. So it's not just guys that

275
00:12:42.519 --> 00:12:46.559
<v Speaker 2>have transferred before. These are guys who are freshly arriving

276
00:12:46.639 --> 00:12:51.039
<v Speaker 2>at their new school. I mean, it's not surprising anymore,

277
00:12:51.080 --> 00:12:53.559
<v Speaker 2>but like, think about how weird that would be ten

278
00:12:53.639 --> 00:12:57.120
<v Speaker 2>years ago. So there are there are actually some first

279
00:12:57.200 --> 00:13:01.320
<v Speaker 2>year starting quarterbacks at many schools across the country that

280
00:13:01.519 --> 00:13:04.799
<v Speaker 2>are like teams that are expected to be good this year,

281
00:13:04.799 --> 00:13:08.200
<v Speaker 2>Like Ohio State they've got the Howard Kidd from Kansas State,

282
00:13:08.919 --> 00:13:12.840
<v Speaker 2>Oregon's got Dylan Gabriel. Notre Dame they've got Riley Leonard,

283
00:13:13.960 --> 00:13:16.799
<v Speaker 2>Miami has cam Ward. So like, these are teams that

284
00:13:16.840 --> 00:13:19.279
<v Speaker 2>are expected to be good and they have quarterbacks that

285
00:13:19.320 --> 00:13:23.360
<v Speaker 2>are you know, experienced, but not at these schools. So

286
00:13:23.440 --> 00:13:25.559
<v Speaker 2>you know those And by the way, those four guys

287
00:13:25.600 --> 00:13:26.879
<v Speaker 2>that has mentioned are believed to be some of the

288
00:13:26.960 --> 00:13:30.840
<v Speaker 2>highest paid guys in the portal at that position. But

289
00:13:31.000 --> 00:13:34.279
<v Speaker 2>six of the forty three projected starters this week that

290
00:13:34.320 --> 00:13:38.559
<v Speaker 2>have transferred half power five power four experience, I guess

291
00:13:38.600 --> 00:13:41.840
<v Speaker 2>it's power four now at two different schools. And one

292
00:13:41.879 --> 00:13:44.200
<v Speaker 2>of those is in fact Tyler Shuck. So Max Johnson,

293
00:13:44.200 --> 00:13:46.279
<v Speaker 2>who by the way, got hurt last night for Carolina.

294
00:13:46.480 --> 00:13:48.159
<v Speaker 2>It's a guy who has been a starter at Texas

295
00:13:48.200 --> 00:13:50.240
<v Speaker 2>A and M and at LSU. Shuck as you know,

296
00:13:50.600 --> 00:13:53.440
<v Speaker 2>has been at Texas Tech and Oregon dj u Galaliley

297
00:13:53.600 --> 00:13:58.200
<v Speaker 2>at Florida State, both Oregon State and Clemson prior and

298
00:13:58.240 --> 00:14:00.440
<v Speaker 2>it's just like, I don't know, this is the norm

299
00:14:00.480 --> 00:14:07.039
<v Speaker 2>for quarterbacks and you know, I mean I do wonder though,

300
00:14:07.320 --> 00:14:10.360
<v Speaker 2>if this happens for the next two three years and

301
00:14:10.399 --> 00:14:14.159
<v Speaker 2>the results are pretty like it's not to say that

302
00:14:14.159 --> 00:14:16.159
<v Speaker 2>you've been Like, for example, Dylan Gabriel's been good everywhere

303
00:14:16.159 --> 00:14:17.639
<v Speaker 2>he's gone. I don't know why he left Oklahoma to

304
00:14:17.639 --> 00:14:19.120
<v Speaker 2>go to Oregon, but either way, like that's a guy

305
00:14:19.159 --> 00:14:20.759
<v Speaker 2>that he could bounce around to a new team every

306
00:14:20.799 --> 00:14:22.480
<v Speaker 2>year and like you clearly know what you're getting. He's

307
00:14:22.559 --> 00:14:25.000
<v Speaker 2>really good. But there's some guys and I think Shuck

308
00:14:25.080 --> 00:14:28.480
<v Speaker 2>may fall into this because his numbers have been impressive. Obviously,

309
00:14:28.600 --> 00:14:30.399
<v Speaker 2>what stands out about him more than anything is that

310
00:14:30.440 --> 00:14:34.559
<v Speaker 2>he's just never been able to stay healthy. But Yukola Leiley,

311
00:14:35.799 --> 00:14:37.759
<v Speaker 2>I mean, he was not good at Oregon State, or

312
00:14:37.799 --> 00:14:40.200
<v Speaker 2>he was decent at Oregon State, not great at Clemson,

313
00:14:40.240 --> 00:14:42.039
<v Speaker 2>certainly not for their standard. I mean, he was mid

314
00:14:42.080 --> 00:14:45.600
<v Speaker 2>at best. And yet because he'd been around a lot,

315
00:14:45.639 --> 00:14:47.919
<v Speaker 2>you knew who he was. He's a big guy, he

316
00:14:48.000 --> 00:14:51.759
<v Speaker 2>had a really really big, you know, recruiting prowess coming

317
00:14:51.799 --> 00:14:55.000
<v Speaker 2>out of high school. Like that led to people to

318
00:14:55.120 --> 00:14:57.039
<v Speaker 2>just assume, oh, yeah, this makes sense. They're gonna be

319
00:14:57.039 --> 00:14:58.440
<v Speaker 2>good because they got a guy who's been at Oregon

320
00:14:58.440 --> 00:14:59.799
<v Speaker 2>State and at Clemson and he was a big time

321
00:14:59.799 --> 00:15:03.200
<v Speaker 2>five start recruits six years ago. Like why I mean,

322
00:15:03.480 --> 00:15:05.159
<v Speaker 2>and be fair, Florida State wasn't the only school that

323
00:15:05.159 --> 00:15:06.759
<v Speaker 2>went after him, Like a lot of schools were interested

324
00:15:06.799 --> 00:15:10.720
<v Speaker 2>in DJU And I just wonder at some point if

325
00:15:10.759 --> 00:15:14.960
<v Speaker 2>you continue to see, you know, sixty two percent of

326
00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:18.120
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry, sixty three percent of the starting quarterbacks in

327
00:15:18.159 --> 00:15:21.759
<v Speaker 2>the Power Conferences are transfers for the next few years.

328
00:15:21.919 --> 00:15:24.399
<v Speaker 2>And more often than not, these guys that transferred in

329
00:15:24.440 --> 00:15:27.759
<v Speaker 2>they weren't terrible, but like they didn't really they didn't

330
00:15:27.799 --> 00:15:29.519
<v Speaker 2>really take you to it, Like you didn't use that

331
00:15:29.559 --> 00:15:31.559
<v Speaker 2>guy from the portal to take to take a step

332
00:15:31.600 --> 00:15:34.279
<v Speaker 2>further as a program like it is there ever, gonna

333
00:15:34.279 --> 00:15:38.120
<v Speaker 2>be a point where the coaches just decide, yeah, there's

334
00:15:38.159 --> 00:15:40.279
<v Speaker 2>a lot of guys out there, but man, they're out

335
00:15:40.320 --> 00:15:42.440
<v Speaker 2>there for a reason. I'm gonna I'm gonna give my

336
00:15:42.559 --> 00:15:44.639
<v Speaker 2>young guy a shot because I recruited him for a reason.

337
00:15:44.679 --> 00:15:48.879
<v Speaker 2>Like for example, for example, if Miller Moss who lit

338
00:15:48.919 --> 00:15:51.960
<v Speaker 2>Louisville on fire last year in that bowl game, right,

339
00:15:52.000 --> 00:15:55.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean, he was unbelievable for USC. If Miller Moss

340
00:15:55.679 --> 00:15:58.000
<v Speaker 2>doesn't ball out in that bowl game the way he did,

341
00:15:58.840 --> 00:16:01.200
<v Speaker 2>would he be their starting quarterback? Not to say that

342
00:16:01.200 --> 00:16:03.320
<v Speaker 2>he wouldn't be good enough, but like would Lincoln Riley

343
00:16:03.360 --> 00:16:05.559
<v Speaker 2>feel like I got to go to the portal because

344
00:16:05.559 --> 00:16:06.919
<v Speaker 2>I got to go get a guy that I've seen

345
00:16:06.960 --> 00:16:09.600
<v Speaker 2>at least be pretty good at the Power five level.

346
00:16:09.879 --> 00:16:12.799
<v Speaker 2>I love Miller Moss, but you know, I've only seen

347
00:16:12.879 --> 00:16:15.840
<v Speaker 2>him play in high school. It's like, in order to

348
00:16:15.840 --> 00:16:19.240
<v Speaker 2>be valued in college football as a quarterback, you have

349
00:16:19.320 --> 00:16:23.039
<v Speaker 2>to go play somewhere and prove it, you know, at

350
00:16:23.039 --> 00:16:26.600
<v Speaker 2>a previous school. But yet when you actually get that opportunity,

351
00:16:26.639 --> 00:16:29.159
<v Speaker 2>if every school is looking for their next big quarterback

352
00:16:29.200 --> 00:16:32.399
<v Speaker 2>to be a transfer, I mean, it's just crazy how

353
00:16:32.519 --> 00:16:35.159
<v Speaker 2>quickly it has changed substantially to where it is rare

354
00:16:35.480 --> 00:16:38.240
<v Speaker 2>for you to find a Power conference team that is

355
00:16:38.320 --> 00:16:41.399
<v Speaker 2>either bringing back a seasoned quarterback who's played many years

356
00:16:41.440 --> 00:16:45.519
<v Speaker 2>for them or they're just next man up. Right, Hey,

357
00:16:45.600 --> 00:16:48.000
<v Speaker 2>our guy graduated this guy's been our backup for a

358
00:16:48.080 --> 00:16:50.879
<v Speaker 2>year or two, and he knows the offense. I mean,

359
00:16:51.080 --> 00:16:54.360
<v Speaker 2>it's hard to not be enamored by the portal because

360
00:16:54.360 --> 00:16:56.320
<v Speaker 2>you can go get a player right away and you

361
00:16:56.320 --> 00:16:58.240
<v Speaker 2>don't have to develop them as much. They've played college

362
00:16:58.279 --> 00:17:01.480
<v Speaker 2>football for two three years. But I think just a

363
00:17:01.559 --> 00:17:04.960
<v Speaker 2>quarterback being available on the portal, I don't know why

364
00:17:05.000 --> 00:17:09.240
<v Speaker 2>there's still that intrigued. I just think it makes these

365
00:17:09.240 --> 00:17:12.920
<v Speaker 2>guys seem better than they are. I don't know, we'll see.

366
00:17:12.960 --> 00:17:15.759
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I have no problem with schools relying on

367
00:17:15.880 --> 00:17:18.559
<v Speaker 2>the portal to go get a good quarterback. I just

368
00:17:19.160 --> 00:17:21.400
<v Speaker 2>I just wonder if you know, like, for example, Miller

369
00:17:21.440 --> 00:17:23.160
<v Speaker 2>Moss is actually the best example I can think of

370
00:17:23.240 --> 00:17:25.480
<v Speaker 2>right now, because that guy, you know, he was behind

371
00:17:25.640 --> 00:17:28.599
<v Speaker 2>some really good quarterbacks obviously at USC, I mean a

372
00:17:28.680 --> 00:17:31.480
<v Speaker 2>Heisman Trophy winner last year, Kayler Williams, so you know,

373
00:17:31.759 --> 00:17:34.480
<v Speaker 2>but again, I feel like had he not really stepped

374
00:17:34.559 --> 00:17:37.039
<v Speaker 2>up and balled out, that maybe Lincoln Raley would have

375
00:17:37.079 --> 00:17:38.720
<v Speaker 2>been more inclined to go hit the portal and go

376
00:17:38.759 --> 00:17:43.680
<v Speaker 2>get one of these transfers. And you know, we'll never know.

377
00:17:44.160 --> 00:17:46.440
<v Speaker 2>All right, we are gonna have a guest coming up here.

378
00:17:46.480 --> 00:17:47.920
<v Speaker 2>In about ten minutes or so, we're going to talk

379
00:17:47.960 --> 00:17:50.880
<v Speaker 2>to doctor Eric McElroy Protri at Physical Therapy, catch up

380
00:17:50.880 --> 00:17:53.359
<v Speaker 2>with him for our weekly chat. Some of the things

381
00:17:53.359 --> 00:17:55.160
<v Speaker 2>I want to get into today before we, you know,

382
00:17:55.440 --> 00:17:57.119
<v Speaker 2>run out of time and get out here for the weekend.

383
00:17:58.000 --> 00:17:59.720
<v Speaker 2>I do want to talk about something that we've yet

384
00:17:59.720 --> 00:18:01.680
<v Speaker 2>to really get into, and that is the Yukon to

385
00:18:01.759 --> 00:18:04.799
<v Speaker 2>the Big Twelve thing. It just sounds awful that you

386
00:18:04.839 --> 00:18:09.240
<v Speaker 2>would go to the Big Twelve in every sport other

387
00:18:09.279 --> 00:18:12.759
<v Speaker 2>than football, because that's the report is that if Yukon

388
00:18:12.799 --> 00:18:15.279
<v Speaker 2>does join the Big Twelve, they'll be they'll be in

389
00:18:15.319 --> 00:18:18.240
<v Speaker 2>that league for every sport other than football until twenty

390
00:18:18.319 --> 00:18:21.519
<v Speaker 2>thirty one, when football could then potentially join. I asked

391
00:18:21.519 --> 00:18:23.000
<v Speaker 2>the same question a lot of other people did, why

392
00:18:23.039 --> 00:18:25.680
<v Speaker 2>the hell would you do that? Well, as weird as

393
00:18:25.680 --> 00:18:28.079
<v Speaker 2>it seems, there is a pretty obvious reason that it's

394
00:18:28.119 --> 00:18:29.920
<v Speaker 2>not that hard to figure out, but yet nobody seems

395
00:18:29.960 --> 00:18:31.400
<v Speaker 2>to really be bringing it up. So we can take

396
00:18:31.400 --> 00:18:33.640
<v Speaker 2>a look at that a little bit later on. Also, again,

397
00:18:33.680 --> 00:18:35.279
<v Speaker 2>there's a lot of games I want to discuss as

398
00:18:35.319 --> 00:18:38.440
<v Speaker 2>far as what I'm wagering on. And again, as John

399
00:18:38.440 --> 00:18:40.599
<v Speaker 2>said earlier, you can fadus if you want, you know,

400
00:18:40.640 --> 00:18:43.119
<v Speaker 2>you do what you want. But you know we're gonna

401
00:18:43.400 --> 00:18:45.359
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna be confident in our picks today, John.

402
00:18:45.200 --> 00:18:46.039
<v Speaker 4>We are going to be confident.

403
00:18:46.079 --> 00:18:48.319
<v Speaker 2>We're gonna believe in the power of positivity.

404
00:18:48.359 --> 00:18:49.039
<v Speaker 4>I'm here for it.

405
00:18:51.920 --> 00:18:53.640
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to the text line here which I've neglected

406
00:18:53.680 --> 00:18:55.759
<v Speaker 2>you guys today. I apologize. Fivebo two six five three

407
00:18:55.880 --> 00:18:58.000
<v Speaker 2>zero seven ninety is the L and N Federal Credit

408
00:18:58.079 --> 00:19:00.279
<v Speaker 2>Union text line if you guys want to tech. The

409
00:19:00.319 --> 00:19:02.720
<v Speaker 2>first text that came in today. As I scrolled down,

410
00:19:03.680 --> 00:19:07.799
<v Speaker 2>somebody asked me if I'm taller than Pat Kelsey. I

411
00:19:07.799 --> 00:19:10.440
<v Speaker 2>don't think so, but I don't really know. Can you

412
00:19:10.480 --> 00:19:14.880
<v Speaker 2>reference the baseball picture? I guess I haven't looked.

413
00:19:15.480 --> 00:19:17.720
<v Speaker 4>I think you're probably you look if I remember right,

414
00:19:17.880 --> 00:19:20.240
<v Speaker 4>you're pretty much identical when it comes to height.

415
00:19:20.480 --> 00:19:22.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I mean like I when I see him

416
00:19:22.680 --> 00:19:24.440
<v Speaker 2>next to his players, and I see him next to

417
00:19:24.519 --> 00:19:26.240
<v Speaker 2>like Mark Pope, who, by the way, is like what

418
00:19:26.400 --> 00:19:29.440
<v Speaker 2>six ten, six eleven or something like that, I feel

419
00:19:29.440 --> 00:19:32.119
<v Speaker 2>like if it was me, I would look shorter. But

420
00:19:32.160 --> 00:19:35.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm five eight. I feel like he's probably about the

421
00:19:35.000 --> 00:19:36.799
<v Speaker 2>same height, And I don't know why that's a question

422
00:19:36.880 --> 00:19:41.119
<v Speaker 2>somebody's asking. But yeah, I don't know. I would imagine

423
00:19:41.200 --> 00:19:45.200
<v Speaker 2>we're probably relatively close in height, but I don't know.

424
00:19:46.079 --> 00:19:48.240
<v Speaker 2>All right, quick break again, we're going to talk to

425
00:19:48.240 --> 00:19:50.200
<v Speaker 2>doctor Eric mclroy here on the other side. Get back

426
00:19:50.200 --> 00:19:51.880
<v Speaker 2>to the text line. Get your set for the weekend.

427
00:19:51.920 --> 00:19:55.039
<v Speaker 2>Week one of college football. It's here and I don't

428
00:19:55.079 --> 00:19:57.920
<v Speaker 2>know how. I haven't got to it yet. But I

429
00:19:57.960 --> 00:20:00.119
<v Speaker 2>had a tough loss last night with that minute so

430
00:20:00.119 --> 00:20:02.680
<v Speaker 2>at a Carolina game. John and I both did but

431
00:20:02.839 --> 00:20:05.319
<v Speaker 2>I didn't wager. But it was still a tough loss

432
00:20:05.319 --> 00:20:07.920
<v Speaker 2>for me to see Colorado win when they shouldn't have.

433
00:20:08.559 --> 00:20:10.720
<v Speaker 2>And I know I'm not alone, by the way. I'm

434
00:20:10.720 --> 00:20:13.400
<v Speaker 2>not like just this hater out here on an island

435
00:20:13.480 --> 00:20:16.119
<v Speaker 2>that's anti Colorado. I could sense it last night. The

436
00:20:16.119 --> 00:20:20.240
<v Speaker 2>college football world wanted Dion Sanders in Colorado to lose,

437
00:20:21.200 --> 00:20:23.519
<v Speaker 2>and they didn't, but they also didn't like Look, I

438
00:20:23.519 --> 00:20:25.240
<v Speaker 2>mean like I could see them once again being the

439
00:20:25.279 --> 00:20:27.599
<v Speaker 2>same kind of team it going down to the very

440
00:20:27.640 --> 00:20:30.640
<v Speaker 2>wire to beat a good FCS program. Like I could

441
00:20:30.640 --> 00:20:33.039
<v Speaker 2>see them being the same exact team as they were

442
00:20:33.160 --> 00:20:35.119
<v Speaker 2>last year. All right, quick break, We'll come back on

443
00:20:35.160 --> 00:20:37.519
<v Speaker 2>the other side, keep it rolling along. It's coffee and company.

444
00:20:37.519 --> 00:20:42.039
<v Speaker 2>I feel about Thornton's on Sports Talk seven ninety. Coffee

<v Speaker 2>with us on another very hot day here in Kentuckyana.

448
00:20:51.359 --> 00:20:54.640
<v Speaker 2>And joining us now is doctor Eric macelroy from Pro

<v Speaker 2>You staying hydrated.

451
00:21:00.960 --> 00:21:03.119
<v Speaker 3>I'm doing the best I can. Let's put it that way.

452
00:21:03.359 --> 00:21:04.559
<v Speaker 2>It's tough out there.

453
00:21:05.759 --> 00:21:08.240
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it's pretty hot, and you know, going out to

454
00:21:08.400 --> 00:21:12.880
<v Speaker 5>kids soccer practices and everything else, and yeah, but you know,

455
00:21:12.920 --> 00:21:14.359
<v Speaker 5>for the most part, staying up on it.

456
00:21:14.440 --> 00:21:18.279
<v Speaker 2>I think yesterday was the hottest day in twelve years

457
00:21:18.279 --> 00:21:21.319
<v Speaker 2>here in Louisville. And it's really just been a brutal week.

458
00:21:21.759 --> 00:21:24.519
<v Speaker 2>And it's been I mean, if you are involved in

459
00:21:24.559 --> 00:21:26.359
<v Speaker 2>any way and use sports rather that be you know,

460
00:21:26.400 --> 00:21:29.599
<v Speaker 2>little league football or soccer, or even you know, middle

461
00:21:29.599 --> 00:21:32.119
<v Speaker 2>school in high school football, it's been you've been tracking

462
00:21:32.119 --> 00:21:34.319
<v Speaker 2>the heat index and the temperatures to kind of see

463
00:21:34.359 --> 00:21:36.319
<v Speaker 2>if you were going to be able to play. And

464
00:21:36.359 --> 00:21:38.160
<v Speaker 2>I know there's some leagues that have probably even if

465
00:21:38.200 --> 00:21:40.599
<v Speaker 2>they were able to technically as far as the rule,

466
00:21:40.680 --> 00:21:43.200
<v Speaker 2>they just decided not to because it's just been so hot.

467
00:21:43.480 --> 00:21:46.519
<v Speaker 2>What are some tips you know for parents out there

468
00:21:46.839 --> 00:21:49.519
<v Speaker 2>to like share with their kids, Like, Hey, I know,

469
00:21:49.599 --> 00:21:51.079
<v Speaker 2>you know, when you're at practice, you're going to be

470
00:21:51.119 --> 00:21:53.880
<v Speaker 2>chugging water, but it's probably going to go right through you.

471
00:21:53.599 --> 00:21:57.079
<v Speaker 2>What are some things you would tell, you know, a

472
00:21:57.119 --> 00:21:59.000
<v Speaker 2>ten year old or an eleven year old youth league

473
00:21:59.000 --> 00:22:01.319
<v Speaker 2>football player when they got practice, Like some things throughout

474
00:22:01.359 --> 00:22:03.519
<v Speaker 2>the day at school or maybe even after school they

475
00:22:03.519 --> 00:22:06.160
<v Speaker 2>could do to be as be hydrated as best they can.

476
00:22:06.240 --> 00:22:08.119
<v Speaker 2>Obviously drinking water is a big factor, but I know

477
00:22:08.160 --> 00:22:09.160
<v Speaker 2>there's more too than just that.

478
00:22:10.559 --> 00:22:13.119
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and you know, Nick, you have kids. It's hard

479
00:22:13.200 --> 00:22:14.799
<v Speaker 3>with kids too, you know e.

480
00:22:16.160 --> 00:22:18.279
<v Speaker 5>It's like you constantly have to remind them to drink

481
00:22:18.319 --> 00:22:21.640
<v Speaker 5>water or drink fluids unless it's something that they shouldn't

482
00:22:21.680 --> 00:22:24.839
<v Speaker 5>be drinking, you know, SODA's or whatnot. So I think

483
00:22:24.880 --> 00:22:28.960
<v Speaker 5>that one making sure that they are going to school.

484
00:22:29.000 --> 00:22:30.200
<v Speaker 3>Most kids nowadays go to.

485
00:22:30.160 --> 00:22:32.400
<v Speaker 5>School with a water bottle or some you know something,

486
00:22:33.279 --> 00:22:36.000
<v Speaker 5>and that they're drinking throughout the day. You know, a

487
00:22:36.000 --> 00:22:37.880
<v Speaker 5>lot one of the things you can do is monitor

488
00:22:37.960 --> 00:22:40.559
<v Speaker 5>their water bottle, so like, you know, is this the

489
00:22:40.599 --> 00:22:42.440
<v Speaker 5>water we filled up in the morning before you went

490
00:22:42.480 --> 00:22:43.640
<v Speaker 5>to school, or is this something you.

491
00:22:43.559 --> 00:22:45.599
<v Speaker 3>Filled up during the day, And you know, they'll they'll

492
00:22:45.720 --> 00:22:47.880
<v Speaker 3>tell you, especially if they're old enough to tell you.

493
00:22:47.920 --> 00:22:50.119
<v Speaker 5>That's important because if it's something they still had in

494
00:22:50.240 --> 00:22:51.839
<v Speaker 5>the morning, they obviously didn't do a good job of

495
00:22:51.920 --> 00:22:55.160
<v Speaker 5>drinking their water because they got to stay on top

496
00:22:55.200 --> 00:22:58.279
<v Speaker 5>of it, especially if they are in sports. So that's

497
00:22:58.319 --> 00:22:59.880
<v Speaker 5>one of the things. The other thing is, I think,

498
00:23:00.519 --> 00:23:02.519
<v Speaker 5>you know, kids are pleasers. They're gonna try to please

499
00:23:02.559 --> 00:23:04.920
<v Speaker 5>their coach, they're gonna try to please their parents, and

500
00:23:05.000 --> 00:23:07.960
<v Speaker 5>making sure that hey, like, if you don't feel good,

501
00:23:08.000 --> 00:23:10.960
<v Speaker 5>you need to say something, you know, especially at the

502
00:23:11.000 --> 00:23:13.759
<v Speaker 5>ages where they don't have a trainer that's monitoring them.

503
00:23:13.759 --> 00:23:15.759
<v Speaker 3>They don't have a trainer that's following them around.

504
00:23:15.519 --> 00:23:18.160
<v Speaker 5>Giving them water, so you know, making sure that they're

505
00:23:18.160 --> 00:23:20.039
<v Speaker 5>being honest and it's okay to be honest and to

506
00:23:20.119 --> 00:23:22.480
<v Speaker 5>explain them like, you know, if you feel dizzy, if

507
00:23:22.519 --> 00:23:25.519
<v Speaker 5>you feel nauseous, if you feel lightheaded, if you feel

508
00:23:25.599 --> 00:23:28.680
<v Speaker 5>you know, whatever it is you feel, you know, make

509
00:23:28.720 --> 00:23:30.720
<v Speaker 5>sure that you go to your coach and you tell

510
00:23:30.759 --> 00:23:34.079
<v Speaker 5>them so you can, you know, either sit out or

511
00:23:34.119 --> 00:23:35.960
<v Speaker 5>make sure that you're getting the water, getting checked out

512
00:23:35.960 --> 00:23:36.519
<v Speaker 5>so we know that.

513
00:23:36.480 --> 00:23:38.960
<v Speaker 3>You're not starting to have any heat exhaustion or anything

514
00:23:39.000 --> 00:23:39.279
<v Speaker 3>like that.

515
00:23:39.400 --> 00:23:41.279
<v Speaker 5>So you know, kids are resilient, and I think we

516
00:23:41.359 --> 00:23:45.400
<v Speaker 5>take that for granted. So I think making sure that

517
00:23:45.400 --> 00:23:48.599
<v Speaker 5>that they're being honest and open and and that they

518
00:23:48.880 --> 00:23:51.400
<v Speaker 5>that if they don't feel good, that they can come

519
00:23:51.400 --> 00:23:53.039
<v Speaker 5>to a coach or come to an adult and make

520
00:23:53.079 --> 00:23:53.599
<v Speaker 5>sure that they.

521
00:23:53.519 --> 00:23:53.960
<v Speaker 3>Let them know.

522
00:23:54.880 --> 00:23:57.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I tell you what I think. I think when

523
00:23:57.720 --> 00:24:01.599
<v Speaker 2>it comes to what you just said, you're speaking exactly

524
00:24:01.680 --> 00:24:04.079
<v Speaker 2>to me, because you know, my son is four years old.

525
00:24:04.160 --> 00:24:06.039
<v Speaker 2>He just turned four in June, and he's playing his

526
00:24:06.079 --> 00:24:08.440
<v Speaker 2>first year of flag football. So he wants to please

527
00:24:08.480 --> 00:24:10.200
<v Speaker 2>his coach, he wants to make everybody proud, but like

528
00:24:10.240 --> 00:24:11.759
<v Speaker 2>this is new to him as far as being on

529
00:24:11.799 --> 00:24:13.880
<v Speaker 2>a team and that kind of an atmosphere, right, and

530
00:24:13.920 --> 00:24:15.519
<v Speaker 2>it's you know, it's a little league football. The're four

531
00:24:15.519 --> 00:24:17.680
<v Speaker 2>and five years old. But still you know, they practice,

532
00:24:17.759 --> 00:24:20.160
<v Speaker 2>you know, they've they've got coaches and it's it's adorable

533
00:24:20.200 --> 00:24:22.759
<v Speaker 2>to see. But I was watching practice a couple of

534
00:24:22.799 --> 00:24:24.279
<v Speaker 2>weeks ago and I thought, you know, he looked like

535
00:24:24.279 --> 00:24:26.519
<v Speaker 2>he was in pain, like something was bothering him. So

536
00:24:26.559 --> 00:24:29.039
<v Speaker 2>I walked over and I'm like, hey, buddy, okay, and

537
00:24:29.079 --> 00:24:30.599
<v Speaker 2>he had to go to the bathroom, but he didn't

538
00:24:30.599 --> 00:24:32.720
<v Speaker 2>want to tell anybody because you know, he's practicing. It's

539
00:24:32.759 --> 00:24:35.160
<v Speaker 2>like he didn't realize, Hey, it's ok. You can say

540
00:24:35.160 --> 00:24:36.559
<v Speaker 2>that you have to go to the bathroom, buddy, and

541
00:24:36.599 --> 00:24:38.039
<v Speaker 2>we'll take you. It's not that big of a deal.

542
00:24:38.079 --> 00:24:40.720
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, kids want to you know, especially when it's

543
00:24:40.759 --> 00:24:42.079
<v Speaker 2>new to him. That's what stood out to me is

544
00:24:42.079 --> 00:24:44.079
<v Speaker 2>that like this is all a brand new experience for him,

545
00:24:44.079 --> 00:24:46.119
<v Speaker 2>so you know, you can never remind him too much.

546
00:24:46.160 --> 00:24:48.960
<v Speaker 2>And you know this is probably a little to TMI

547
00:24:49.079 --> 00:24:50.720
<v Speaker 2>for certain people, but like when it comes to him,

548
00:24:50.759 --> 00:24:53.160
<v Speaker 2>I say, hey, buddy, try to drink as much liquid

549
00:24:53.160 --> 00:24:55.880
<v Speaker 2>as you can drink water, because consider it a victory

550
00:24:55.880 --> 00:24:58.240
<v Speaker 2>when you use the restroom and it's not dark, it's

551
00:24:58.359 --> 00:25:01.880
<v Speaker 2>it's more so clear. And he tells me, Daddy, Daddy,

552
00:25:01.960 --> 00:25:04.000
<v Speaker 2>it was it was clear, it wasn't dark, and I'm like, here.

553
00:25:03.880 --> 00:25:07.319
<v Speaker 3>We go, that's right. And then you know it's great.

554
00:25:07.480 --> 00:25:09.519
<v Speaker 5>You know the kids that age, you know, my wife

555
00:25:09.640 --> 00:25:11.880
<v Speaker 5>is you know, speaking a team out but she, you know,

556
00:25:12.000 --> 00:25:14.880
<v Speaker 5>for a long time, she wanted to see what our kids,

557
00:25:15.079 --> 00:25:17.839
<v Speaker 5>you know, urine looked like, or what their poop look like.

558
00:25:17.920 --> 00:25:20.559
<v Speaker 5>I mean, it's it's important now she's in that world,

559
00:25:21.160 --> 00:25:22.920
<v Speaker 5>but it's still important.

560
00:25:22.440 --> 00:25:25.519
<v Speaker 3>That you know, those are things that we're looking at

561
00:25:25.519 --> 00:25:25.920
<v Speaker 3>because it.

562
00:25:25.839 --> 00:25:27.880
<v Speaker 5>Does tell us a lot about how they're doing, you know,

563
00:25:27.960 --> 00:25:30.599
<v Speaker 5>and especially if they're talking about upset stomachs or if

564
00:25:30.599 --> 00:25:31.519
<v Speaker 5>they're not drinking water.

565
00:25:31.559 --> 00:25:32.680
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, it's extremely important.

566
00:25:32.680 --> 00:25:34.079
<v Speaker 5>It's not something you want to do, but as a parent,

567
00:25:34.119 --> 00:25:35.599
<v Speaker 5>there's a lot of stuff like that we have to do.

568
00:25:35.680 --> 00:25:39.599
<v Speaker 2>So yep, and uh, you know, parenting it's it's the

569
00:25:39.599 --> 00:25:41.240
<v Speaker 2>best thing that's ever happened to me. But you know,

570
00:25:41.279 --> 00:25:43.400
<v Speaker 2>I'll admit it, I'm still learning stuff as I go.

571
00:25:43.799 --> 00:25:46.480
<v Speaker 3>You know. It's it's you know, it's.

572
00:25:46.039 --> 00:25:48.519
<v Speaker 2>Trial and error. So all right, So louisvill football getting

573
00:25:48.559 --> 00:25:51.799
<v Speaker 2>started tomorrow. They're gonna be without Colin Lacey, transfer receiver,

574
00:25:51.880 --> 00:25:54.559
<v Speaker 2>who will probably be out an extended period of time

575
00:25:54.640 --> 00:25:56.960
<v Speaker 2>due to a collarbone injury. He broke his collar bone.

576
00:25:57.000 --> 00:25:59.640
<v Speaker 2>He did have surgery last week. Uh, and I guess

577
00:25:59.640 --> 00:26:02.279
<v Speaker 2>it kind of depends on maybe how severe the break was.

578
00:26:02.319 --> 00:26:05.640
<v Speaker 2>But what would you say, you know, estimated timeline not

579
00:26:05.680 --> 00:26:07.839
<v Speaker 2>for him to return, but to where he would be

580
00:26:07.920 --> 00:26:10.640
<v Speaker 2>going through rehab to kind of you know, start that

581
00:26:10.759 --> 00:26:13.440
<v Speaker 2>healing process because obviously it's gonna be a while before

582
00:26:13.440 --> 00:26:16.039
<v Speaker 2>he can actually play. But how long after a surgery

583
00:26:16.079 --> 00:26:18.559
<v Speaker 2>would you see somebody in this situation start actually going

584
00:26:18.559 --> 00:26:20.960
<v Speaker 2>through physical therapy to to kind of you know, you know,

585
00:26:21.160 --> 00:26:23.160
<v Speaker 2>take baby steps to return.

586
00:26:24.440 --> 00:26:27.240
<v Speaker 3>Pretty soon, especially for clavical fractures.

587
00:26:27.319 --> 00:26:32.279
<v Speaker 5>So once they have that secure and then the bones

588
00:26:32.359 --> 00:26:35.279
<v Speaker 5>just gonna heal, we'll start doing things that you know,

589
00:26:35.400 --> 00:26:37.680
<v Speaker 5>first we're gonna work around it some you know, but

590
00:26:37.720 --> 00:26:39.559
<v Speaker 5>there's areas we can still work on and we can

591
00:26:39.559 --> 00:26:42.400
<v Speaker 5>get a shoulder moving a little bit, you know, because

592
00:26:42.400 --> 00:26:45.920
<v Speaker 5>that joint, the gal humoral joint, you know, they operate together.

593
00:26:46.000 --> 00:26:48.359
<v Speaker 5>Everything operates together to some level, but you know, they

594
00:26:48.400 --> 00:26:49.920
<v Speaker 5>also can be if we do it the.

595
00:26:49.960 --> 00:26:51.880
<v Speaker 3>Right way independent. Uh.

596
00:26:51.920 --> 00:26:55.559
<v Speaker 5>So, once they've kind of external or internally fixated that bone,

597
00:26:55.599 --> 00:26:59.000
<v Speaker 5>if they have to, uh, then now we're really you know,

598
00:26:59.079 --> 00:27:00.720
<v Speaker 5>the bone's trying to heal and at the same time

599
00:27:00.720 --> 00:27:04.599
<v Speaker 5>we're trying to maintain mobility. Then we start integrating strength

600
00:27:04.599 --> 00:27:07.279
<v Speaker 5>when the bone can tolerate it, and you know, then

601
00:27:07.279 --> 00:27:09.319
<v Speaker 5>start building, you know, making sure that whatever level of

602
00:27:09.359 --> 00:27:11.400
<v Speaker 5>conditioning we can do. You know, we're we're butting up

603
00:27:11.440 --> 00:27:14.680
<v Speaker 5>to the season, so you know, whatever creative way or

604
00:27:14.720 --> 00:27:17.799
<v Speaker 5>way we can get him going, so our our gap

605
00:27:17.960 --> 00:27:21.079
<v Speaker 5>and you know, you know, we're all about closing the gap,

606
00:27:21.240 --> 00:27:23.759
<v Speaker 5>like how can we close the gap close enough to

607
00:27:23.799 --> 00:27:25.640
<v Speaker 5>that way it's seamless for him to get back on

608
00:27:25.640 --> 00:27:29.400
<v Speaker 5>the field versus waiting around too long, you know, you know,

609
00:27:29.440 --> 00:27:32.559
<v Speaker 5>trying to be ultras conservative where you know, then we

610
00:27:32.640 --> 00:27:35.200
<v Speaker 5>have a larger gap once we get the green light,

611
00:27:35.839 --> 00:27:38.000
<v Speaker 5>and now we're having to get him into shape and

612
00:27:38.000 --> 00:27:39.680
<v Speaker 5>all that stuff. We you know, when you're building the

613
00:27:39.799 --> 00:27:41.440
<v Speaker 5>end of the season, you'll have time for that. So

614
00:27:41.920 --> 00:27:43.880
<v Speaker 5>when you're working with athletes, you got to think about,

615
00:27:44.160 --> 00:27:46.319
<v Speaker 5>all right, yes, we got to protect the bone, We're

616
00:27:46.319 --> 00:27:47.799
<v Speaker 5>got to protect the healing process.

617
00:27:48.720 --> 00:27:51.519
<v Speaker 3>What can we do to do that, but also make sure.

618
00:27:51.319 --> 00:27:54.279
<v Speaker 5>That we're getting him at the point where we're as

619
00:27:54.319 --> 00:27:56.559
<v Speaker 5>close as we possibly can't be when when we know

620
00:27:56.599 --> 00:27:58.519
<v Speaker 5>it's time to get him on the field and do

621
00:27:58.640 --> 00:28:01.319
<v Speaker 5>some you know, catch and ball, you know, running routes,

622
00:28:02.079 --> 00:28:05.680
<v Speaker 5>taking hits, whatever it may be. That way we're you know,

623
00:28:05.720 --> 00:28:08.240
<v Speaker 5>we're not missing more time than we really need to be.

624
00:28:09.240 --> 00:28:11.359
<v Speaker 2>Doctor K mclroy, Proti of Physical Therapy is our guest

625
00:28:11.440 --> 00:28:14.160
<v Speaker 2>joining us here on a Friday afternoon on Sports Talk

626
00:28:14.240 --> 00:28:17.559
<v Speaker 2>seven ninety. A pretty awful injury last night in one

627
00:28:17.559 --> 00:28:20.519
<v Speaker 2>of the college football games North Carolina quarterback Max Johnson

628
00:28:20.559 --> 00:28:22.799
<v Speaker 2>actually making his debut for the tar Heels. He played

629
00:28:22.799 --> 00:28:26.759
<v Speaker 2>previously at A and m LSU and was out there

630
00:28:26.759 --> 00:28:30.359
<v Speaker 2>for the Heels broken leg. Had had successful surgery on

631
00:28:30.440 --> 00:28:33.160
<v Speaker 2>that broken right leg, according to On three Sports, and

632
00:28:33.279 --> 00:28:35.119
<v Speaker 2>just something that that that stood out to me in

633
00:28:35.160 --> 00:28:38.200
<v Speaker 2>this in this in this report was that he will

634
00:28:38.279 --> 00:28:40.960
<v Speaker 2>be staying up in Minneapolis where he had the surgery,

635
00:28:41.079 --> 00:28:44.039
<v Speaker 2>for the next few days and then returning to Chapel Hill.

636
00:28:45.240 --> 00:28:47.799
<v Speaker 2>Does that stand out to you as surprising? Is that

637
00:28:47.839 --> 00:28:49.799
<v Speaker 2>pretty common to have this kind of surgery, maybe not

638
00:28:49.839 --> 00:28:51.720
<v Speaker 2>want to get on a plane and fly back. I just,

639
00:28:51.799 --> 00:28:54.400
<v Speaker 2>you know, usually I feel like these guys, I mean,

640
00:28:54.480 --> 00:28:56.680
<v Speaker 2>usually guys don't come back from a game coming off

641
00:28:56.680 --> 00:28:58.799
<v Speaker 2>of a surgery for a broken leg. But I just

642
00:28:58.799 --> 00:29:01.119
<v Speaker 2>I'm curious if that's because just for comfort or if

643
00:29:01.119 --> 00:29:03.359
<v Speaker 2>that's like required by the medical staff to say, hey,

644
00:29:03.400 --> 00:29:05.720
<v Speaker 2>after the surgery, you know you don't need to be traveling.

645
00:29:05.720 --> 00:29:08.000
<v Speaker 2>You need to be in this hospital bed until you know,

646
00:29:08.079 --> 00:29:10.319
<v Speaker 2>until we say so.

647
00:29:10.319 --> 00:29:12.599
<v Speaker 3>So I didn't see this particular.

648
00:29:12.079 --> 00:29:17.960
<v Speaker 5>Injury, it was pretty bad, tell yeah, and I'm assuming

649
00:29:18.000 --> 00:29:19.319
<v Speaker 5>it was this tibi ar fibula.

650
00:29:19.519 --> 00:29:22.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they weren't showing replace, which told me is all

651
00:29:22.039 --> 00:29:22.640
<v Speaker 2>I needed to know.

652
00:29:23.559 --> 00:29:27.440
<v Speaker 5>So what that tells me is that area of the body,

653
00:29:27.480 --> 00:29:30.400
<v Speaker 5>if that's the case, is very susceptible to what's called

654
00:29:30.480 --> 00:29:33.599
<v Speaker 5>like compartment syndrome and infection. So if you think about

655
00:29:33.599 --> 00:29:36.680
<v Speaker 5>what happened to Tiger, what you think about what happened

656
00:29:36.720 --> 00:29:40.279
<v Speaker 5>to Alex Smith, so you know they're susceptible to that.

657
00:29:40.480 --> 00:29:43.240
<v Speaker 5>So if there's any risk, they're going to keep him

658
00:29:43.279 --> 00:29:46.119
<v Speaker 5>there to make sure that doesn't happen. Because if anybody

659
00:29:46.119 --> 00:29:48.200
<v Speaker 5>saw the pictures of what Alex Smith like look like,

660
00:29:48.319 --> 00:29:50.799
<v Speaker 5>looks like you don't want to go through that, and

661
00:29:50.839 --> 00:29:54.880
<v Speaker 5>I think that you know, that's kind of where that

662
00:29:54.960 --> 00:29:55.599
<v Speaker 5>comes from.

663
00:29:55.720 --> 00:29:59.480
<v Speaker 3>It's it's all dependent on all right, you.

664
00:29:59.400 --> 00:30:02.480
<v Speaker 5>Know, what's the what are the worst case scenarios for

665
00:30:02.519 --> 00:30:04.160
<v Speaker 5>this situation and what do we need to do to

666
00:30:04.599 --> 00:30:06.799
<v Speaker 5>make sure we're outside of that window of that happening

667
00:30:06.880 --> 00:30:10.200
<v Speaker 5>and in that area of the body, especially if it compounded.

668
00:30:10.599 --> 00:30:14.720
<v Speaker 5>So if the bone exited the skin, then they're even

669
00:30:14.759 --> 00:30:18.279
<v Speaker 5>more concerned about that just because it got exposed to

670
00:30:18.319 --> 00:30:20.920
<v Speaker 5>the external environment. And so even though they went in

671
00:30:20.960 --> 00:30:23.559
<v Speaker 5>and cleaned all that out, it's still a risk, right,

672
00:30:23.599 --> 00:30:24.279
<v Speaker 5>it's biology.

673
00:30:24.400 --> 00:30:26.559
<v Speaker 3>So you know, I think that that's where they're they're

674
00:30:26.599 --> 00:30:26.920
<v Speaker 3>gonna be.

675
00:30:26.920 --> 00:30:30.440
<v Speaker 5>Ultra conservative and make sure that they don't create a

676
00:30:30.759 --> 00:30:32.440
<v Speaker 5>you know, it's it's not like he has anything to do.

677
00:30:32.440 --> 00:30:34.920
<v Speaker 5>I stay it that way, but like being there, being safe,

678
00:30:35.000 --> 00:30:38.079
<v Speaker 5>being in that sterile hospital environment where they can monitor

679
00:30:38.119 --> 00:30:41.119
<v Speaker 5>those things, so they're not creating you know, nothing, no

680
00:30:41.240 --> 00:30:43.359
<v Speaker 5>secondary issues happened that could be more of a long

681
00:30:43.440 --> 00:30:44.039
<v Speaker 5>term problem.

682
00:30:45.079 --> 00:30:48.200
<v Speaker 2>So when that injury happened, obviously his teammates and even

683
00:30:48.200 --> 00:30:50.200
<v Speaker 2>the other team could tell that was a very serious injury.

684
00:30:50.200 --> 00:30:51.960
<v Speaker 2>I mean, everybody in the stadium could tell that it

685
00:30:52.000 --> 00:30:54.400
<v Speaker 2>was that it was it was bad. When it comes

686
00:30:54.440 --> 00:30:58.359
<v Speaker 2>to trying to get football players to kind of, you know,

687
00:30:58.519 --> 00:31:00.759
<v Speaker 2>get back focused and try not to think about that,

688
00:31:00.839 --> 00:31:02.599
<v Speaker 2>I mean, easier said than done. I mean, the human

689
00:31:02.640 --> 00:31:05.640
<v Speaker 2>element in sports is a very powerful thing, but is

690
00:31:05.680 --> 00:31:08.319
<v Speaker 2>it mostly like how often would a training staff potentially

691
00:31:08.359 --> 00:31:09.960
<v Speaker 2>like be involved in that I mean, I assume you're

692
00:31:09.960 --> 00:31:12.240
<v Speaker 2>you're if you're not the if you're not the trainer

693
00:31:12.279 --> 00:31:14.720
<v Speaker 2>that's helping the athlete get to the back to get

694
00:31:14.799 --> 00:31:16.319
<v Speaker 2>checked on and all that kind of stuff. It's just,

695
00:31:16.519 --> 00:31:19.039
<v Speaker 2>you know, I feel like that that would be a

696
00:31:19.119 --> 00:31:20.640
<v Speaker 2>very difficult thing to do, to have to kind of

697
00:31:20.640 --> 00:31:22.920
<v Speaker 2>tell these guys, hey, I know you really care about

698
00:31:22.920 --> 00:31:24.680
<v Speaker 2>your teammate who seems to be really hurt, but we

699
00:31:24.720 --> 00:31:26.359
<v Speaker 2>got a game to play. I mean, it's it's kind

700
00:31:26.359 --> 00:31:28.240
<v Speaker 2>of inhumane, but you know, that's that's kind of part

701
00:31:28.240 --> 00:31:30.599
<v Speaker 2>of sports. I'm just curious in your in your in

702
00:31:30.640 --> 00:31:33.559
<v Speaker 2>your experience in the sports side of things. Like I'm

703
00:31:33.559 --> 00:31:35.839
<v Speaker 2>sure there are teammates who are distraught when they see

704
00:31:35.839 --> 00:31:37.559
<v Speaker 2>their guy go down. I mean, Kevin Ware that was

705
00:31:37.599 --> 00:31:40.200
<v Speaker 2>an emotional situation when that happened many many years ago,

706
00:31:40.279 --> 00:31:41.599
<v Speaker 2>and I just it's one of those things that you

707
00:31:41.599 --> 00:31:43.720
<v Speaker 2>probably don't think about the emotional side of it until

708
00:31:43.759 --> 00:31:45.359
<v Speaker 2>you know it's you out there, and a lot of us,

709
00:31:45.559 --> 00:31:47.720
<v Speaker 2>myself included, have never been in that position where I've

710
00:31:47.720 --> 00:31:48.799
<v Speaker 2>played sports at that level.

711
00:31:50.480 --> 00:31:53.559
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I mean I think that it's it's tough, you know,

712
00:31:53.799 --> 00:31:55.839
<v Speaker 5>I'll be honest, I can speak in a personal experience.

713
00:31:55.880 --> 00:31:57.759
<v Speaker 5>I was playing in a regional all star game here

714
00:31:57.799 --> 00:32:03.720
<v Speaker 5>in football in Louisville, and we ran this really dumb.

715
00:32:04.000 --> 00:32:06.880
<v Speaker 5>I don't know why at the time, cross middle kick return.

716
00:32:06.920 --> 00:32:10.160
<v Speaker 5>It's an all star game and a kid who had

717
00:32:10.160 --> 00:32:15.119
<v Speaker 5>committed to Louisville was blindsided a hit and he paralyzed it.

718
00:32:15.920 --> 00:32:19.519
<v Speaker 3>You know, he ended up passing away several years later.

719
00:32:20.680 --> 00:32:23.839
<v Speaker 5>But we we we play and I look back and

720
00:32:23.880 --> 00:32:25.720
<v Speaker 5>I'm like, I have no idea how it's an all

721
00:32:25.720 --> 00:32:26.119
<v Speaker 5>star game.

722
00:32:26.160 --> 00:32:29.799
<v Speaker 3>It really didn't matter at that point. But you know,

723
00:32:29.880 --> 00:32:31.519
<v Speaker 3>the and the guy that hit him, who was a

724
00:32:31.599 --> 00:32:35.400
<v Speaker 3>very good football player at a Wagner, he quit. He

725
00:32:35.400 --> 00:32:35.960
<v Speaker 3>could never.

726
00:32:35.799 --> 00:32:38.039
<v Speaker 2>Play against that would do so much to it.

727
00:32:39.039 --> 00:32:41.039
<v Speaker 5>Right, And I think that you know, we've seen this

728
00:32:41.160 --> 00:32:44.319
<v Speaker 5>with the Buffalo Bills player. You know, they actually did

729
00:32:44.319 --> 00:32:46.440
<v Speaker 5>stop the game, which was probably the right thing to do.

730
00:32:46.440 --> 00:32:48.839
<v Speaker 3>That's a little different because he had a cardion caress.

731
00:32:49.240 --> 00:32:51.880
<v Speaker 5>But I do think that you I think that you

732
00:32:52.000 --> 00:32:55.079
<v Speaker 5>have to kind of reset the mindset of the players

733
00:32:55.079 --> 00:32:56.880
<v Speaker 5>of like, we do know this is a risk and

734
00:32:57.039 --> 00:32:57.839
<v Speaker 5>injuries happened.

735
00:32:57.839 --> 00:32:59.559
<v Speaker 3>We hear it all the time in practice. You hear

736
00:32:59.599 --> 00:33:01.079
<v Speaker 3>it all the time, and hosting.

737
00:33:00.759 --> 00:33:04.119
<v Speaker 5>And all that stuff, and and you know it's unfortunate,

738
00:33:04.240 --> 00:33:06.480
<v Speaker 5>and you also it's up to the staff to say, hey, look,

739
00:33:06.640 --> 00:33:08.480
<v Speaker 5>he's gonna be fine, he's gonna be all right.

740
00:33:09.119 --> 00:33:10.799
<v Speaker 3>Now we need to play for him, you know, you.

741
00:33:10.799 --> 00:33:13.400
<v Speaker 5>Kind of change that, try to bring that to a

742
00:33:13.440 --> 00:33:15.000
<v Speaker 5>different mindset.

743
00:33:14.640 --> 00:33:16.759
<v Speaker 3>To get them to refocus and say, all right, let's

744
00:33:16.920 --> 00:33:18.839
<v Speaker 3>let's take the time we need, but at the same time,

745
00:33:18.920 --> 00:33:21.119
<v Speaker 3>let's now we have that much more to play for.

746
00:33:21.279 --> 00:33:24.079
<v Speaker 5>Let's make sure that you know, you know, we're in

747
00:33:24.119 --> 00:33:26.519
<v Speaker 5>the our heads are in the right place at this

748
00:33:26.680 --> 00:33:29.880
<v Speaker 5>moment time, because you don't want players also obviously.

749
00:33:29.480 --> 00:33:32.720
<v Speaker 3>Distracted or are working in fear or anything like that.

750
00:33:32.839 --> 00:33:36.079
<v Speaker 5>So you know, I think different levels, you know, the

751
00:33:36.119 --> 00:33:38.079
<v Speaker 5>higher you get it to go. Most of them have

752
00:33:38.160 --> 00:33:40.720
<v Speaker 5>seen stuff like this happen, unfortunately, and so they're probably

753
00:33:40.759 --> 00:33:43.160
<v Speaker 5>a little more I hate to call it callous to it,

754
00:33:43.240 --> 00:33:45.400
<v Speaker 5>but you know it may not impact them as much

755
00:33:47.079 --> 00:33:49.119
<v Speaker 5>and or they handle it or the way they handle it.

756
00:33:49.119 --> 00:33:51.599
<v Speaker 5>And then they have sports psychologists there, I mean, they're

757
00:33:51.640 --> 00:33:54.480
<v Speaker 5>on the field. It's amazing when you look.

758
00:33:54.359 --> 00:33:56.880
<v Speaker 3>Down at the staff that's out there, who's probably.

759
00:33:56.480 --> 00:33:58.920
<v Speaker 5>Down there to help kind of you know, talk to

760
00:33:58.960 --> 00:34:00.519
<v Speaker 5>whoever needs to be talked to to get them in

761
00:34:00.519 --> 00:34:02.319
<v Speaker 5>the right you know, mindset.

762
00:34:02.720 --> 00:34:05.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, And just throughout this conversation it has actually made

763
00:34:05.960 --> 00:34:08.800
<v Speaker 2>me realize how important it actually is to see those

764
00:34:08.840 --> 00:34:11.119
<v Speaker 2>guys give those thumbs up when they're being carted off

765
00:34:11.199 --> 00:34:12.400
<v Speaker 2>or some type of a sign.

766
00:34:12.559 --> 00:34:12.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

767
00:34:12.760 --> 00:34:15.039
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that could really go a long way now

768
00:34:15.039 --> 00:34:17.280
<v Speaker 2>that I mean, I've always clearly you want to see

769
00:34:17.280 --> 00:34:18.920
<v Speaker 2>something like that, But if you're a player and you're

770
00:34:18.920 --> 00:34:21.239
<v Speaker 2>trying to get back focused, seeing that can help you

771
00:34:21.360 --> 00:34:24.800
<v Speaker 2>kind of lock back in. And you know that, Not

772
00:34:24.880 --> 00:34:27.000
<v Speaker 2>that I've ever acted like those things aren't helpful, but

773
00:34:27.079 --> 00:34:28.840
<v Speaker 2>just in the conversation here, I just realized, Man, if

774
00:34:28.840 --> 00:34:30.239
<v Speaker 2>it was me out there and I saw my guy

775
00:34:30.280 --> 00:34:32.199
<v Speaker 2>give the thumbs up, I would it would be easier

776
00:34:32.199 --> 00:34:34.000
<v Speaker 2>for me to kind of just get back focused and

777
00:34:34.320 --> 00:34:37.440
<v Speaker 2>you know, try to go win and and compete. All Right,

778
00:34:37.519 --> 00:34:39.239
<v Speaker 2>one more question for you before we let you go, Eric,

779
00:34:39.280 --> 00:34:41.280
<v Speaker 2>Let's say, and I've been asking all of our guests

780
00:34:41.280 --> 00:34:43.079
<v Speaker 2>this question this week as we're getting closer to college

781
00:34:43.119 --> 00:34:45.199
<v Speaker 2>football season. In fact, it's here tomorrow is the first

782
00:34:45.199 --> 00:34:46.400
<v Speaker 2>time a lot of people around here are going to

783
00:34:46.400 --> 00:34:48.280
<v Speaker 2>be tailgating. Hopefully, whether it's not too bad. But if

784
00:34:48.440 --> 00:34:50.360
<v Speaker 2>doctor Eric McElroy is going to be making an appearance

785
00:34:50.360 --> 00:34:52.440
<v Speaker 2>at a tailgate and he's got three things he wants

786
00:34:52.480 --> 00:34:55.119
<v Speaker 2>to make sure are there. What do we need to

787
00:34:55.239 --> 00:34:58.280
<v Speaker 2>provide to make sure we're accommodating doctor McElroy. Could be food,

788
00:34:58.320 --> 00:35:01.239
<v Speaker 2>could be beverage, could be something in regards to the atmosphere.

789
00:35:01.320 --> 00:35:03.280
<v Speaker 2>What is crucial for doctor McElroy.

790
00:35:04.960 --> 00:35:06.599
<v Speaker 3>Well, I think the first thing.

791
00:35:06.639 --> 00:35:09.079
<v Speaker 2>Is Okay, I like it.

792
00:35:09.239 --> 00:35:11.760
<v Speaker 3>I like it, you know, I mean, so I think

793
00:35:11.760 --> 00:35:13.800
<v Speaker 3>that that's just that's one.

794
00:35:15.480 --> 00:35:18.519
<v Speaker 5>You know, a cold beer, you know, I just you know,

795
00:35:18.559 --> 00:35:20.079
<v Speaker 5>I'm not I don't drink as much beer.

796
00:35:19.880 --> 00:35:22.440
<v Speaker 3>As I used to. If I'm gonna have beverages, it

797
00:35:22.639 --> 00:35:25.960
<v Speaker 3>just comes with age, I think. But but you know, yeah,

798
00:35:26.000 --> 00:35:27.039
<v Speaker 3>I think a beer, and then.

799
00:35:29.079 --> 00:35:33.800
<v Speaker 5>I think just a really good cheese dip, caso dip,

800
00:35:34.119 --> 00:35:36.159
<v Speaker 5>you know, something about like chips and dip or.

801
00:35:36.159 --> 00:35:39.960
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, some salty.

802
00:35:38.480 --> 00:35:41.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, something like that. Just that's what I have to add.

803
00:35:41.599 --> 00:35:44.480
<v Speaker 2>Good stuff, good stuff. I can't wait football seasons here,

804
00:35:44.519 --> 00:35:46.519
<v Speaker 2>I know, as a football player yourself. I mean, it's

805
00:35:46.559 --> 00:35:48.280
<v Speaker 2>best time of the year. It's just I mean, it's

806
00:35:49.039 --> 00:35:50.920
<v Speaker 2>the vibes are great. But Eric, I appreciate you as

807
00:35:50.920 --> 00:35:53.079
<v Speaker 2>always making time for us and enjoyed the holiday weekend,

808
00:35:53.199 --> 00:35:54.960
<v Speaker 2>enjoy the football and we will talk soon, my friend.

809
00:35:55.880 --> 00:35:57.280
<v Speaker 3>That sounds good. Have a go with Nick.

810
00:35:57.360 --> 00:36:00.519
<v Speaker 2>Take care. That's doctor Eric McElroy again from Pro Rehabs Therapy.

811
00:36:00.840 --> 00:36:04.039
<v Speaker 2>Always appreciate him making time for us. And now we

812
00:36:04.039 --> 00:36:05.320
<v Speaker 2>got to take a quick break. We'll come back and

813
00:36:05.360 --> 00:36:07.280
<v Speaker 2>wrap up the four o'clock hour. Don't forget though, we're

814
00:36:07.280 --> 00:36:08.960
<v Speaker 2>taking you up till six o'clock. So hang out right

815
00:36:08.960 --> 00:36:13.719
<v Speaker 2>here with us on Sports Talk seven ninety. Not a

816
00:36:13.760 --> 00:36:15.519
<v Speaker 2>lot of time left here in the four o'clock hour.

817
00:36:16.280 --> 00:36:20.880
<v Speaker 2>And I'm just scrolling through Twitter here and just a

818
00:36:20.920 --> 00:36:24.039
<v Speaker 2>reminder that like we're so close that like we're getting

819
00:36:24.039 --> 00:36:25.840
<v Speaker 2>stir crazy here. I think we just want to see

820
00:36:25.840 --> 00:36:29.519
<v Speaker 2>our teams play. We've exhausted all different ways. You can

821
00:36:29.559 --> 00:36:33.800
<v Speaker 2>talk about expectations, the new you know, storylines, that kind

822
00:36:33.840 --> 00:36:38.760
<v Speaker 2>of stuff. And this is from Katz coverage. They cover UK.

823
00:36:38.880 --> 00:36:41.719
<v Speaker 2>I would assume, but it says here at starting quarterback

824
00:36:41.719 --> 00:36:43.960
<v Speaker 2>Brock Vandergriff says he doesn't tell the coaches, but he

825
00:36:44.000 --> 00:36:46.280
<v Speaker 2>struggles to sleep the night before games because he loves

826
00:36:46.320 --> 00:36:49.559
<v Speaker 2>football so much and like everybody's sharing that, Like, yeah,

827
00:36:49.679 --> 00:36:51.480
<v Speaker 2>I would hope that everybody who plays football at a

828
00:36:51.519 --> 00:36:55.480
<v Speaker 2>high level loves doing it and is you know, enjoys it.

829
00:36:56.320 --> 00:36:59.280
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, I mean as much as we as fans

830
00:36:59.280 --> 00:37:01.239
<v Speaker 2>are just ready, I think these guys are ready to.

831
00:37:01.360 --> 00:37:04.719
<v Speaker 2>I mean, they've been practicing against each other for you know,

832
00:37:04.920 --> 00:37:07.679
<v Speaker 2>the entire offseason, and even if it is an inferior

833
00:37:07.679 --> 00:37:10.719
<v Speaker 2>opponent tomorrow for louisvilland for Kentucky for that matter, it's

834
00:37:10.719 --> 00:37:15.159
<v Speaker 2>at least somebody different. And although from a selfish fan

835
00:37:15.400 --> 00:37:17.639
<v Speaker 2>that I am standpoint, like I want to see my

836
00:37:17.719 --> 00:37:20.440
<v Speaker 2>team week in and week out play somebody where I

837
00:37:20.440 --> 00:37:23.400
<v Speaker 2>feel like I'm learning, Are they getting better? What did

838
00:37:23.440 --> 00:37:26.519
<v Speaker 2>this mean? You know? Is what's to gain here? And

839
00:37:26.599 --> 00:37:28.679
<v Speaker 2>with tomorrow you have a chance to gain a win,

840
00:37:28.880 --> 00:37:30.320
<v Speaker 2>and you know, you only play twelve games, so the

841
00:37:30.320 --> 00:37:32.480
<v Speaker 2>more wins you get, the better, and tomorrow should be

842
00:37:32.480 --> 00:37:34.840
<v Speaker 2>a win. If not, you got big problems. But it's just,

843
00:37:34.920 --> 00:37:36.559
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's hard to know what the value is there.

844
00:37:36.599 --> 00:37:40.440
<v Speaker 2>So my point is this, in the portal era, with

845
00:37:40.480 --> 00:37:43.199
<v Speaker 2>so many new pieces, I think it's it actually does

846
00:37:43.280 --> 00:37:45.199
<v Speaker 2>make sense to have the schedule for Louisville set up

847
00:37:45.199 --> 00:37:46.960
<v Speaker 2>the way that it has where you have Jacksonville State

848
00:37:46.960 --> 00:37:48.840
<v Speaker 2>next week, and of course this be costin p Those

849
00:37:48.840 --> 00:37:51.360
<v Speaker 2>are the two worst teams you're going to play all year,

850
00:37:51.519 --> 00:37:54.039
<v Speaker 2>and it'll give you a chance to work through some things. Maybe.

851
00:37:54.119 --> 00:37:56.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I would hope that they don't have a

852
00:37:56.039 --> 00:37:59.760
<v Speaker 2>bad performance in either of these games. But let's say

853
00:37:59.800 --> 00:38:03.119
<v Speaker 2>you know, they don't cover the thirty seven or whatever

854
00:38:03.159 --> 00:38:05.679
<v Speaker 2>the spread is next week. You know that wouldn't be ideal.

855
00:38:06.440 --> 00:38:08.039
<v Speaker 2>But I also can't act like all that means we're

856
00:38:08.039 --> 00:38:09.679
<v Speaker 2>going to be in trouble because again, like you just

857
00:38:09.760 --> 00:38:12.880
<v Speaker 2>it's these guys can tell themselves they're going out there

858
00:38:12.880 --> 00:38:14.559
<v Speaker 2>and play in Florida State, but they know they're not,

859
00:38:14.719 --> 00:38:16.800
<v Speaker 2>you know, and especially when you're up a few scores

860
00:38:16.880 --> 00:38:19.280
<v Speaker 2>or something, you know, things can kind of slip. But

861
00:38:19.679 --> 00:38:22.719
<v Speaker 2>i'd rather them be able to have some you know,

862
00:38:22.840 --> 00:38:25.519
<v Speaker 2>some growing pains as a unit, right because again, although

863
00:38:25.559 --> 00:38:27.400
<v Speaker 2>these guys are veterans, a lot of them have transferred

864
00:38:27.400 --> 00:38:30.159
<v Speaker 2>in are quarterbacks like thirty years old. You know, this

865
00:38:30.239 --> 00:38:32.360
<v Speaker 2>is still new as far as this team. You know,

866
00:38:32.400 --> 00:38:34.599
<v Speaker 2>they've practiced together, but now it's really a game, and

867
00:38:34.639 --> 00:38:36.719
<v Speaker 2>I think it's it's a benefit to be able to

868
00:38:36.719 --> 00:38:39.840
<v Speaker 2>work through some things, make some mistakes, you know, kind

869
00:38:39.840 --> 00:38:42.360
<v Speaker 2>of cut your teeth a little bit against these kind

870
00:38:42.360 --> 00:38:44.280
<v Speaker 2>of teams to where you could do that and probably

871
00:38:44.280 --> 00:38:46.280
<v Speaker 2>still win big. You do it against Georgia Tech. Now,

872
00:38:46.280 --> 00:38:48.159
<v Speaker 2>maybe it's a different story because as we know, Georgia

873
00:38:48.159 --> 00:38:51.039
<v Speaker 2>Tech is an acc team, and they right now have

874
00:38:51.480 --> 00:38:53.679
<v Speaker 2>the biggest upset of the season thus far. And I

875
00:38:53.719 --> 00:38:55.920
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't be shocked if we get to the end of

876
00:38:55.960 --> 00:38:57.960
<v Speaker 2>week one and you still say that's the biggest upset.

877
00:38:57.960 --> 00:39:00.880
<v Speaker 2>I mean, top ten teams don't lose in the first

878
00:39:00.920 --> 00:39:02.880
<v Speaker 2>week or two very often, because rarely do you see

879
00:39:02.880 --> 00:39:05.480
<v Speaker 2>top ten teams, you know, play good teams this early

880
00:39:05.559 --> 00:39:08.639
<v Speaker 2>in the season. But anyways, we got to run quick break.

881
00:39:08.840 --> 00:39:11.280
<v Speaker 2>We've got the five o'clock hour on a Friday coming

882
00:39:11.360 --> 00:39:14.400
<v Speaker 2>your way. We'll talk more about the weekend's matchups because

883
00:39:14.400 --> 00:39:16.559
<v Speaker 2>there's a lot of great games. In fact, the good

884
00:39:16.559 --> 00:39:18.639
<v Speaker 2>games aren't the ones here locally. But I know that's

885
00:39:18.639 --> 00:39:20.079
<v Speaker 2>what people care about Louisville, Kentucky.

886
00:39:20.119 --> 00:39:20.480
<v Speaker 1>I get it.

887
00:39:21.119 --> 00:39:23.239
