I 24 00:01:19,159 --> 00:01:24,680 feel awful. I have been dodging sicknesses in my house 25 00:01:25,079 --> 00:01:30,560 like I was a eleven degree black belt ninja right, 26 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,000 Like literally every one of my family members has been sick, 27 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,959 and I've still been kissing all of him, cuddling all 28 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,159 of him, not giving a damn. And I think it 29 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,719 finally got up to me, you know, So if I 30 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,359 said a lot out of it today, please forgive me. 31 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,280 I feel god awful.

I don't think it's real. 40 00:02:13,479 --> 00:02:16,080 Speaker 2: I can't. I mean, it would be like a great 41 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:20,520 comedian to play it like Burr's playing it, so I 42 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,439 could see it going. I don't know.

Me and Victoria 93 00:04:32,759 --> 00:04:34,480 are going to see that, so give. 94 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,959 Speaker 2: Me what's the story on din of Thieves? This appears 95 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,120 to be a pretty beloved movie that I don't know 96 00:04:39,199 --> 00:04:39,839 anything about. 97 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 6: So Victoria actually watched it for the first time last night. 98 00:04:42,759 --> 00:04:47,720 So generic not dirty cop, but Gerard Butler's a cop 99 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:49,560 that kind of bends the rules a little bit, and 100 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,920 he's after like a den of thieves, ice cube, sons 101 00:04:52,959 --> 00:04:56,240 and at and they were, you know, bank robbers in 102 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:57,759 the first one. And the first one was really good, 103 00:04:57,800 --> 00:04:59,000 so we're gonna see the second one tonight. 104 00:04:59,040 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 4: It is pretty good. 105 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 2: I gotta give credit to Gerard Butler here because. 106 00:05:06,399 --> 00:05:07,519 Speaker 4: Great action film. 107 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 2: So I was gonna say, right, like obviously three hundred 108 00:05:10,199 --> 00:05:12,160 was panned by critics at the time, but it was 109 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:17,319 beloved by audiences. But after that, you know, he does 110 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,920 a couple of rom coms they don't really hit the mark, 111 00:05:20,519 --> 00:05:24,120 and then he seems to be getting in increasingly bad 112 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:29,600 action films. Only at some point those bad action films 113 00:05:29,639 --> 00:05:32,439 became so bad that they became good. Was it like 114 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:38,240 Olympus Has Fallen? Or White House? Is it white House Down? 115 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,439 Speaker 5: Tit on Olympus? 116 00:05:40,879 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 2: Either way, those are movies that are not supposed to 117 00:05:43,399 --> 00:05:46,279 be good, and yet Gerard Butler seems to be turning 118 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:47,839 out action hits that people love. 119 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:49,839 Speaker 6: You know it still Victoria last night, I was like, 120 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:51,800 I don't like Gerard Butler. I was like, I feel 121 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:53,560 like I don't see him in enough stuff. And I 122 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:54,959 was like, you know what, though, maybe that's why I 123 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,839 like him, because like he's not churning out all of 124 00:05:57,879 --> 00:05:59,439 these left and right, Like he's not. 125 00:05:59,399 --> 00:06:02,079 Speaker 5: Like overs saturated. Was like, maybe maybe that's why we 126 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:03,240 like Gerroid Butler. 127 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,600 Speaker 6: Cause like every now and then, like he'll be you know, 128 00:06:05,639 --> 00:06:08,040 he'll put out a a great movie, but then you. 129 00:06:07,959 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 5: Want to hear about him for like four years. 130 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, is is p s. I love you thegel that's 131 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,079 the truth, the ugly truth. Yeah, that movie sucked. I 132 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:23,279 remember is funny. I remember seeing in theaters and just 133 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:24,319 thought it was awful. 134 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:26,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, Hillary smink. 135 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 2: Okay, so that's speaking of I haven't seen her in 136 00:06:30,759 --> 00:06:34,800 a while. Well, good on Gerard Butler. Enjoyed Din of 137 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:38,800 Thieves too. That sounds like a fantastic way to spend 138 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,079 a Friday night. Nookie says, jar Butler greater than Jason 139 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:41,519 Stateth than. 140 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 6: I love two of them, both of my some of 141 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:45,879 my favorite actors. 142 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:47,079 Speaker 5: I like Jason state them better. 143 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 2: I don't have enough of a dog in the fight. 144 00:06:48,879 --> 00:06:50,959 Speaker 4: Honestly, that's what I was gonna say. I know y'all 145 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,720 love Jason Stathum, but I probably lean more toward Gerard 146 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:58,000 Butler than I do Jason Stathum. 147 00:06:58,639 --> 00:07:01,600 Speaker 6: Gerard Butler's probably will be the better actor. I just 148 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:03,519 enjoyed Jason Stathum's movies. 149 00:07:03,639 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 2: Fondsays Can't Wait Till tof talked about his daughter runs 150 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,199 of a five hundred dollars Roblox built. Well, she actually 151 00:07:08,199 --> 00:07:12,240 can't buy anything thanks to the parental control. So but yeah, 152 00:07:12,279 --> 00:07:15,399 that would definitely be in play if that was not 153 00:07:15,439 --> 00:07:21,519 the case. Dub is right, super underrated Gerar Butler movie 154 00:07:21,839 --> 00:07:24,600 The Phantom of the Opera with Amy Rosson I had 155 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,120 so I had TiVo in high school, and so you 156 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,079 end up watching the movies that you had recorded on 157 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:35,800 TVO approximately eight thousand times because this was pre streaming. Yeah, so, 158 00:07:35,959 --> 00:07:38,879 like I probably watched Harry Potter, Goblet Fire one hundred times, 159 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:42,639 not really, you know, like twenty times, Cheaper by the dozen, 160 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:49,600 two randomly a ton and Phantom of the Opera, which 161 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:54,639 Jar Butler was fantastic. All right, Well, coming up on 162 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,279 today's show. We're actually going to open today's show with 163 00:07:57,399 --> 00:08:00,879 women's basketball, as it is, by far, are the biggest 164 00:08:00,879 --> 00:08:05,319 thing going on in town right now. Coach Moulkey's squad 165 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:09,240 trying to climb the one hill they have yet to 166 00:08:09,319 --> 00:08:11,879 do in her time at LSU, and that is beating 167 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,279 down Staley South Carolina game Cocks. In fact, read Darcy 168 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:19,680 from The Advocate has a really, really good preview piece 169 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,040 in today's paper that you all show all to check 170 00:08:22,079 --> 00:08:25,560 out that really lays out through the numbers just how 171 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:31,759 lopsided this rivalry has become as of late. And so 172 00:08:31,759 --> 00:08:34,159 that's where we're gonna start today's show. And then, look, 173 00:08:34,159 --> 00:08:36,559 we have plenty of NFL talk, You had Saints coaching search, 174 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:38,720 you got the conference championships coming up this weekend. I 175 00:08:38,759 --> 00:08:42,559 want to not spend long on it, but I think 176 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,600 I have a very definitive answer as to whether or 177 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,320 not the twelve team playoff is a bust. And I 178 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,080 have much more numbers than I had yesterday when we 179 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,080 came to that subject a bit late.

It's off the Bench with Hester and. 214 00:10:47,799 --> 00:10:56,519 Speaker 2: T Bob shout out Billy Corgan. So I can't tell 215 00:10:56,519 --> 00:10:59,759 if it's a bit or not, but Bill Burr and 216 00:10:59,759 --> 00:11:05,159 Billy Corgan went on Howie Mandel's podcast, which is which 217 00:11:05,159 --> 00:11:07,279 is deeply fun to begin with because it's all three 218 00:11:07,639 --> 00:11:15,960 very bald white guys, like like the baldest of white guys. Uh. 219 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:20,919 But the what they are saying is kind of insane. 220 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,360 As on a previous episode, I guess Corgan was on. 221 00:11:25,639 --> 00:11:27,720 He told the story about his stepmother telling him that 222 00:11:27,799 --> 00:11:31,679 his dad had multiple families, who's a traveling musician, and 223 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,639 that he believed she believed that Bill Burr was his 224 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:41,120 half brother through his dad. And then Howie Mandel is 225 00:11:41,159 --> 00:11:43,080 Bill Burr on the podcast, and out of nowhere he 226 00:11:43,159 --> 00:11:46,559 drops Billy Corgan in there, and Burr seems pretty miffed 227 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:52,679 about the entire thing. We'll play some clips later, but 228 00:11:52,879 --> 00:11:57,919 there's your random internet headline of the morning. Uh, Bill 229 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:01,519 Burr and Billy bil Burr Billy Corgan maybe half brothers 230 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,639 through a traveling musician father who had multiple families. 231 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:07,799 Speaker 4: I mean, it's so easy to find that out nowadays. 232 00:12:08,759 --> 00:12:10,879 Let's get him on Maury for. 233 00:12:10,759 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 2: What it's Well, I think he's dead, but somebody did say, 234 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:16,399 here is no the dad. Oh no, I think somebody 235 00:12:16,399 --> 00:12:17,879 did say dig him up and put him on Mario. 236 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:23,639 To your point, what Taylor's like trying like maybe we 237 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:24,200 got Jacob. 238 00:12:24,279 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, let's see if it works. 239 00:12:26,879 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 2: Jake, Jake, Wakey, exit Baky with sub dude, No, we'll 240 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:33,720 get a miss. 241 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:35,559 Speaker 4: He's all right. 242 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 2: So let's talk then about the LSU women's basketball team. 243 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,919 As like I said, Read Darcy, That's where I'm getting 244 00:12:42,919 --> 00:12:44,759 all this information from. So I do not want to 245 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:48,000 stolen valor here. I'm citing my sources. But the numbers 246 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:51,200 that Read wrote about this morning are fantastic. 247 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 3: Uh. 248 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 2: And when you think about coach Molkey's resume in her career, 249 00:12:56,879 --> 00:13:00,240 and you think about coach Molki's time here in and 250 00:13:00,279 --> 00:13:03,679 Rouge for her career, there's quite literally nothing that she 251 00:13:03,759 --> 00:13:05,440 has not been able to do. For her time here 252 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,799 at LSU. There is exactly one thing that she has 253 00:13:08,879 --> 00:13:12,600 not been able to do, and that is beat South Carolina. 254 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,080 In fat guys, you want to hear some shocking numbers. 255 00:13:15,639 --> 00:13:18,840 LSU has not beaten South Carolina women's basketball since two 256 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:23,679 thy and twelve. That is a dozen years and sixteen 257 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:29,600 games in a row that you lost, sixteen games, which 258 00:13:29,639 --> 00:13:31,799 look for much of that time maybe LSU wasn't at 259 00:13:31,799 --> 00:13:34,480 their peak, but still, these are two competitive programs and 260 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,000 you figure sometime you would have stumbled into a win 261 00:13:37,159 --> 00:13:44,240 in those ensuing sixteen matchups. For what it's worth, Coach 262 00:13:44,279 --> 00:13:48,480 Molki yourself is two and five all time against Don 263 00:13:48,519 --> 00:13:52,120 Staley teams and hasn't beaten a Don Staley coach team 264 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:57,159 since two thousand and nineteen. And that twenty nineteen day 265 00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:01,840 is a very interesting one to high because for many 266 00:14:01,879 --> 00:14:05,480 South Carolina fans, that twenty nineteen game, it was in 267 00:14:05,519 --> 00:14:08,879 the sweet sixteen Baylor verus South Carolina. It kind of 268 00:14:08,879 --> 00:14:14,360 represents a line of demarcation. That year. South Carolina's still climbing. 269 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:16,960 They were, they were pretty good, they were getting better, 270 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:19,879 but Baylor beats him in the Sweet sixteen. That's a 271 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:23,320 year in which South Carolina lost ten games. Since that year, 272 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,759 so they lost ten games in nineteen. Since that year, 273 00:14:26,039 --> 00:14:30,039 they've only lost ten games in five years. If you 274 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,600 make that four years, they've only lost four games in 275 00:14:32,639 --> 00:14:38,240 the past four years. Hell, they lost to UCLA this 276 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,720 year and it was their second regular season loss over 277 00:14:41,759 --> 00:14:44,559 the last four years. So Ever, since Baylor and Coachmulgi 278 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:46,559 won that Sweet sixteen, South Carolina has been on a 279 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:48,519 tear and in the ensuing a half decade, they've made 280 00:14:48,559 --> 00:14:51,639 follow our final fours. They've won two championships, including an 281 00:14:51,679 --> 00:14:57,159 undefeated one. And what's fascinating about this rivalry is you 282 00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:03,840 truly do have almost a pupil becoming the master sort 283 00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:09,600 of situation, the rise of the new generation, because if 284 00:15:09,639 --> 00:15:11,679 you look at don Sele's time at South Carolina, it 285 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:13,840 took her four years to make the tournament. She gets 286 00:15:13,879 --> 00:15:15,759 a job in O eight, she doesn't make the tournament 287 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:20,960 until twenty twelve. That same year, coach Molchy was forty 288 00:15:21,039 --> 00:15:25,240 to zero at Baylor winning the national championship, and so 289 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,639 coach was already on top, and she's remained on top 290 00:15:27,679 --> 00:15:30,639 of Don Sally slowly, so slowly creeped up and then 291 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:34,679 in the past five years accelerated past now. Of course, 292 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,559 as I said LSU coach Molky, she's done everything here 293 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:39,879 at LSU that you would want to accomplish, including the 294 00:15:39,919 --> 00:15:42,639 peak winning the national championship. But the year in which 295 00:15:42,639 --> 00:15:45,240 they won, South Carolina was eliminated by Iowa. She has 296 00:15:45,279 --> 00:15:50,639 still not beaten the game Cocks in the Tiger uniform. 297 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,159 And the game's gonna be at four pm this afternoon. 298 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,159 It's gonna be on ESPN one. It is going to 299 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,440 be an absolute dogfight as this very talented LSU team 300 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:02,120 looks to head in two South Carolina and hand the 301 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,000 game Cocks their second loss of this season. It's gonna 302 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:06,519 be tough. Else She's played some close games, is he, 303 00:16:06,519 --> 00:16:08,919 which may help them South Carolina is not. In fact, 304 00:16:08,919 --> 00:16:10,480 I think South Carolina has had one game to out 305 00:16:10,519 --> 00:16:13,759 about single digits. They have six double digit ranked twins 306 00:16:13,799 --> 00:16:15,960 on the year. It is going to be an absolute battle. 307 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:19,159 Can coach accomplish the one thing she has not yet 308 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:25,440 in the purple and goal? Uh, Jake, are we no? No? Okay, no, 309 00:16:25,519 --> 00:16:33,039 we're still working on to check it out this this afternoon, 310 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,559 four pm. Guys, how are you feeling about? 311 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 3: Are you? 312 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,919 Speaker 2: Are you all working the game this afternoon? I am not. 313 00:16:39,679 --> 00:16:40,759 Speaker 4: No, neither of us are. 314 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 2: But yeah, I can't wait to watch man, I can't 315 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:48,320 wait to watch what coach. What coach has beat it 316 00:16:48,399 --> 00:16:51,159 built here is nothing short of incredible. It's our favorite 317 00:16:51,279 --> 00:16:56,320 time to talk to her every single week and again. 318 00:16:56,399 --> 00:17:01,080 This is the proverbial monkey on the back here. So 319 00:17:01,399 --> 00:17:05,440 here's to hoping that that coach Molky and the squad 320 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,599 can find a way to hand another loss to Don 321 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:10,839 Staley and gain swimming. I mean, if you don't look, 322 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:13,160 you'll still probably face him in the SEC tournament, Like 323 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:16,079 you'll still have more chances. But sixteen games in a 324 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:20,119 row over a dozen years, like eventually something's got to give. 325 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 5: You gotta think. 326 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,400 Speaker 6: This is their best shot too, right, I mean LSU's hot. 327 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,839 They're undefeated South Carolina already two losses is like one loss, 328 00:17:26,839 --> 00:17:31,599 I think, right, yeah, so they're still you know, South Carolina, 329 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,640 they're just not that dominant, you know, thirty and oh 330 00:17:34,839 --> 00:17:37,559 team that were used to see in that's just still. 331 00:17:38,319 --> 00:17:41,440 Speaker 2: I mean they only lost to UCLA's ring number one, 332 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:43,400 and like I said, they only had one game decided 333 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,880 by single digits. Now I feel you in that they're 334 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,839 a bit more fallible because they have a loss. Yes, 335 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:52,720 but it's gonna what's a spread on this? 336 00:17:52,799 --> 00:17:54,400 Speaker 5: Actually South Carolina is the favorite? 337 00:17:54,599 --> 00:17:56,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, by how much? Though, I'm wondering. I mean, they're 338 00:17:56,839 --> 00:17:59,200 at home. Of course they should be the favorite. They've 339 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:01,839 they've won sixteen and as I said, they've already have 340 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:06,039 six double digit ranked wins on the year. So it's 341 00:18:06,039 --> 00:18:08,640 a bit interesting. Whereas coach Molki likes to handle the 342 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:12,480 out of conference portion with you know, not necessarily playing 343 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,039 the best teams, and she kind of figures out what 344 00:18:14,079 --> 00:18:17,000 she has. Uh, South Carolina already been through some pretty 345 00:18:17,039 --> 00:18:19,000 rigorous competition thus far. 346 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,160 Speaker 6: Well in like to your point, yes, if they don't 347 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,839 win this game, not that big of a deal. You're 348 00:18:24,839 --> 00:18:26,640 still gonna get into the tournament. You can still see 349 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:28,960 them in the SEC tournament. You got to get this 350 00:18:29,039 --> 00:18:31,839 off your back there. I mean, think about it two 351 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,599 years ago when LSU won the National Championship. It was 352 00:18:34,599 --> 00:18:37,160 the final four, right, you beat Virginia Tech. You were 353 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,920 waiting on the other team and then you see I 354 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:43,000 will pull the upset and everything switched.

So checking about Katie's window covering to 385 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:09,240 ktoz Blinds dot com. I'll talk about the Saints' coaching 386 00:20:09,279 --> 00:20:12,960 search a bit, as there's been a little bit of 387 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:18,359 an NFL soap opera taking place as of late yesterday. 388 00:20:18,759 --> 00:20:23,319 We talked about Liam Cohen removing his name from the 389 00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:27,240 Jacksonville Jaguars search and how interesting that was right given 390 00:20:27,279 --> 00:20:29,119 that man, We thought that was a pretty good job 391 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:34,599 for Cohen, like that represents, you know, the opportunity he's 392 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:36,200 worked for his entire life. I mean, this is a 393 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,480 guy who is with McVeigh. Then he goes to Kentucky. 394 00:20:38,519 --> 00:20:40,480 Then he's back to the NFL. Now he's a baker 395 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,559 and like, I mean NFL hel John Jackson, like, oh, 396 00:20:43,559 --> 00:20:47,319 surely he'll take that. Well he doesn't. He tells the 397 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:51,640 Bucks he's signing a long term extension. H And then 398 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:55,519 what do the Jags do? They fire Trent Balky the 399 00:20:55,599 --> 00:20:59,720 GM and then all of a sudden, Liam Cohen secretly 400 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:03,240 fly back to Jacksonville and is now re engaged and 401 00:21:03,279 --> 00:21:05,400 talks with the Jaguars. Would you have to imagine means 402 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,359 he's going to be the head coach. They're just hammering 403 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:12,359 out the details. I think there's a couple interesting things 404 00:21:12,519 --> 00:21:18,279 to note here if this move doesn't teed come to pass. First, 405 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,319 good gets Liam Cohen out the NFC South love that 406 00:21:21,319 --> 00:21:24,720 that offensive the Bucks is very good this season. Second, 407 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:28,799 it kind of clears the way for the Saints to 408 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:32,440 hire whoever they want. I mean, the word on the 409 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:34,880 street right now is that the Raiders are talking like 410 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:38,960 Pete Carroll, Robert sala Vance, Joseph kind of more experienced options. 411 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:45,200 Brian Schottenheimer randomly feels like the favorite in Dallas until 412 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:48,200 all of a sudden, like you don't have any competition 413 00:21:48,799 --> 00:21:51,240 for Brady or if you want to go kell them Moore, 414 00:21:51,279 --> 00:21:53,839 if you want to go Mike McCarthy, like the Saint 415 00:21:53,839 --> 00:21:56,200 Tuner situation where they may kind of end up having 416 00:21:56,799 --> 00:22:00,000 their their choice of who they want, which is pretty fascinating. 417 00:22:00,039 --> 00:22:03,599 Give it how this is all shook out. I would 418 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:06,599 also say this one interesting note. Remember the Aaron Glenn 419 00:22:08,799 --> 00:22:11,720 rumor that we talked about from t J. Jones basically 420 00:22:11,799 --> 00:22:15,039 saying that, look, Aaron Glenn wanted to know if the 421 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:18,160 franchise would be willing to move on from Mickey Loomis, 422 00:22:18,279 --> 00:22:23,200 and a lot of people clown clown that report saying, oh, 423 00:22:23,279 --> 00:22:27,799 I mean Loomis is the one conducting the interview, like 424 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:31,279 this is crazy. He's not gonna ask Loomis himself to 425 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:34,759 fire himself. But I would say here that what just 426 00:22:34,799 --> 00:22:37,759 happened to Trent balk shows you that this does actually 427 00:22:37,799 --> 00:22:41,079 go on. Trent Balke was the one interviewing Liam Cohen 428 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:44,079 along with the owner and everybody else, and it's obvious 429 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,960 that Cohen made it obvious through back channels that no, 430 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,519 he would want a new GM, that he would get 431 00:22:50,559 --> 00:22:53,759 to be a part of choosing, and honestly, you know, 432 00:22:53,839 --> 00:22:56,279 It's very important when when you look at the Chicago 433 00:22:56,279 --> 00:22:59,119 Bears or that clip that went viral earlier this year 434 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,000 where they're laying out now, the Bears have never really 435 00:23:02,079 --> 00:23:06,960 had a GM head coaching, quarterback. They were all brought 436 00:23:07,079 --> 00:23:09,119 together at the same time, right, they were all one 437 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:16,000 piece of that triumvirate was always inherited from a previous regime. Well, 438 00:23:16,079 --> 00:23:17,880 Liam cohen ba is saying, yeah, look, you want me 439 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,119 to come. I'm happy in Tampa. You want me to come, 440 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,599 you gotta get rid of Balky, bring somebody else in, 441 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,599 and then we'll start this thing completely anew So, all 442 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:29,400 I'm saying is maybe that report about Aaron Glenn intimating 443 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:31,039 some of the same stuff, getting some of those same 444 00:23:31,079 --> 00:23:34,519 whispers surrounding mcglomes, maybe that is true. And then the 445 00:23:34,519 --> 00:23:37,279 Saint's clearly showing well no, unlike the Jaguars, they were 446 00:23:37,319 --> 00:23:40,559 not willing to do so. But yeah, I guess the 447 00:23:40,559 --> 00:23:43,400 biggest takeaway is again the Saints have an open path 448 00:23:43,519 --> 00:23:47,400 to Joe Brady, Kellen Moore, Mike McCarthy. I mean, is 449 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,119 there anybody is there anybody else left competing for these 450 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:51,200 competing for these guys? 451 00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:53,759 Speaker 6: Kellen Moore is are the only one right now that's 452 00:23:53,759 --> 00:23:56,400 been linked to other jobs. I mean, right now, it 453 00:23:56,440 --> 00:24:00,359 seems like in Dallas, if it's not Brian Schottenheimer, it'll 454 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,519 be Kellen Moore. I mean, those are those are kind 455 00:24:02,559 --> 00:24:04,960 of the two guys that are the favorite. Jerry obviously 456 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:06,920 said he wanted to hire somebody that's familiar with them. 457 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:09,960 He's familiar with both those guys. But McCarthy and Joe 458 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,359 Brady heard nothing. I mean, the only one we had 459 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,880 heard was yesterday that the Jaguars were after Brady. But 460 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:17,920 obviously they're hired Cohen and they're out. 461 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, So I mean, good, good, good for the 462 00:24:24,079 --> 00:24:26,559 good for the Saint thing, and continue to be patient, 463 00:24:26,599 --> 00:24:29,240 continue to do their due diligence, and end up choosing 464 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:31,200 you they choose to. How are we feeling about the 465 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:32,680 Brian Schohnheimer rumors. 466 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 6: I don't feel great about it. Look, he was the 467 00:24:36,519 --> 00:24:41,279 offensive coordinator under Mike McCarthy and he did not call plays, 468 00:24:41,759 --> 00:24:45,440 so you know, and I actually looked up his resume yesterday. 469 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:48,160 He's been a coordinator in a lot of different places. 470 00:24:48,279 --> 00:24:51,279 Speaker 2: He was actually a coordinator in UH Saint Louis when 471 00:24:51,279 --> 00:24:51,799 I was there. 472 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 5: He was a coordinator in Saint Louis. 473 00:24:53,279 --> 00:24:54,640 Speaker 2: He was one of the men who called me into 474 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:56,400 his office to cut me. And I mean that would 475 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:58,519 love like that. Normally, you know, you can just get 476 00:24:58,559 --> 00:25:01,559 cut by nobody but him. Jeff Fisher, the a line 477 00:25:01,599 --> 00:25:04,799 coach all you know, took their turn at the knife. 478 00:25:04,799 --> 00:25:06,359 Good coach though. I really enjoyed him. 479 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,880 Speaker 6: No, and you know his his coaching is quite extensive. 480 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:12,720 Like so okay, he was the Jets offensive coordinator under 481 00:25:12,839 --> 00:25:16,599 Eric man Janie Now with Pennington and six and o seven. 482 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,400 His offenses were terrible. They ranked eighteenth and twenty fifth. 483 00:25:19,799 --> 00:25:22,400 You give him a good quarterback ninth ranked offense in 484 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:25,000 the NFL in two thousand and eight. Again, same thing 485 00:25:25,079 --> 00:25:27,359 under Rex Ryan. He was okay with Mark Sanchez. I 486 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,160 mean they had a lot of success together. He's been 487 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:33,119 everywhere Saint Louis again though, like his quarterbacks were Sam Bradford, 488 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,000 Kellen Clemens, and Austin Davis. 489 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:36,759 Speaker 5: So I mean he hasn't had a ton of work, 490 00:25:36,799 --> 00:25:37,079 but he. 491 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:40,799 Speaker 6: Was, Uh, he was George's quarter offensive coordinator when Grayson 492 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:41,519 Lambert was there. 493 00:25:41,519 --> 00:25:42,680 Speaker 5: I mean, the guy's been all over. 494 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:46,400 Speaker 6: But my issue is you're carrying a fifty one year 495 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,039 old offensive coordinator that's never been a head coach anywhere, 496 00:25:49,039 --> 00:25:51,480 that hasn't even called plays in like four years. 497 00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:56,359 Speaker 2: I mean, it's it's old. It is the ultimate sign 498 00:25:56,400 --> 00:26:00,240 of Jerry Jones beating to his own drum. I didn't 499 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,480 I don't expect this at all. You would think Dallas 500 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:06,720 would want to do something splashy uh No, not the case. 501 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 4: See what Jake thinks about it. 502 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:11,119 Speaker 2: Jake, what's up? 503 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 1: Dude? 504 00:26:13,279 --> 00:26:14,640 Speaker 3: I can't see y'all. 505 00:26:14,799 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 4: No, I can't hear you because if you were to 506 00:26:17,279 --> 00:26:20,720 see us, then we would also be like on the stream, 507 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:23,640 so it would be weird.

Welcome back to OTB well right along 538 00:28:39,319 --> 00:28:41,640 here on this Friday, and we finally got a guy. 539 00:28:41,759 --> 00:28:45,480 Jake Hester back he uh, he left for the National 540 00:28:45,559 --> 00:28:49,839 Championship and it was hell getting home. Interested we talked 541 00:28:49,839 --> 00:28:51,920 about playing chains and automobiles, trying to make it back 542 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:57,519 for that Houston. Uh, for that for the Houston playoff game. 543 00:28:58,079 --> 00:29:02,359 Little did he know when nightmares awaited his future. Uh, Jake, 544 00:29:02,559 --> 00:29:04,759 give us the rundown of how you finally made it 545 00:29:04,799 --> 00:29:05,880 back to the capital city. 546 00:29:07,839 --> 00:29:12,599 Speaker 3: Yes, so on Monday, we're doing the pregame show on 547 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:14,480 the field, which was really cool. We had stand up 548 00:29:14,519 --> 00:29:17,599 mikes and kind of wireless and we were just grabbing people. So, 549 00:29:17,839 --> 00:29:19,920 you know, everything was great, vibe was great. And then 550 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,680 I get the you know, the text, your flight's gonna 551 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:25,319 be canceled, which wasn't that shocking because I knew the 552 00:29:25,359 --> 00:29:27,960 weather in ben Rouge was going to be crazy. And 553 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:31,319 I'm like, okay, well, let me try to during the breaks, 554 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,440 let me plan on maybe what I can do, how 555 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:37,160 can I attack this? And so my initial thought, because 556 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,359 I couldn't get anywhere really close, I could get close ish. 557 00:29:40,519 --> 00:29:44,880 And so after the game on Monday, I, you know, 558 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:48,440 I booked a flight to Jackson, Mississippi, and so I 559 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:50,480 got to the airport and that flight was at like 560 00:29:50,559 --> 00:29:52,440 nine thirty or something. So I got to the airport 561 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:55,720 at I think six. I'm like, okay, you know, I'll 562 00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:57,680 be fine. Six I got three and a half hours 563 00:29:57,680 --> 00:29:59,480 because I would probably be a little bit crazy because 564 00:29:59,519 --> 00:30:02,960 of the National Championship Game whatever. So after standing in 565 00:30:03,039 --> 00:30:06,359 line for like four and a half hours on I 566 00:30:06,359 --> 00:30:10,480 guess Tuesday morning, I missed that initial flight, but it 567 00:30:10,519 --> 00:30:12,519 was fine because everybody was missing their flights, and so 568 00:30:12,599 --> 00:30:15,000 I got on the next flight and I'm like, okay, 569 00:30:15,759 --> 00:30:19,039 Lisha'll get home because I was gonna drive from Jackson, Mississippi, 570 00:30:19,039 --> 00:30:21,599 and I rented a car, and that was gonna be 571 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:23,119 how I got back to Baton Rouge. I was gonna 572 00:30:23,119 --> 00:30:24,960 find a way, just get me close. Well, I get 573 00:30:25,039 --> 00:30:28,160 there and they have no rental cars. You can reserve one, 574 00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:31,079 says you have one, but you get to Jackson, Mississippi, 575 00:30:31,359 --> 00:30:35,160 no rental cars. Okay, I don't know anybody in Mississippi. 576 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:38,640 I don't know anybody close to Jackson, Mississippi. So I 577 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:42,400 was like, okay, well I'll try to get to Shreveport. 578 00:30:42,759 --> 00:30:46,039 So I'm going to book a flight from Atlanta to Shreveport. 579 00:30:46,079 --> 00:30:49,400 So I got to fly back to Atlanta, but it's okay, 580 00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:51,359 I'll get to Shreveport tonight. I'll figure out a way 581 00:30:51,359 --> 00:30:53,920 to get to Baton Rouge. And so as I'm in 582 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:57,119 the air from it, you know, Jackson to Atlanta, the 583 00:30:57,200 --> 00:31:00,279 Shreveport leg of the flight, it gets canceled and so 584 00:31:00,319 --> 00:31:03,440 I'm like, okay, well, I guess I'm probably going to 585 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:06,680 stay the night in Atlanta. And there was no hotel 586 00:31:06,759 --> 00:31:09,079 rooms and so I'm like, okay, well, I paid three 587 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:12,480 hundred dollars t for this, like you know whatever hotel 588 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,640 by the airport that was all that was left. I'm like, 589 00:31:16,079 --> 00:31:18,039 I gotta do it. I mean, you know, I gotta 590 00:31:18,079 --> 00:31:22,079 get some sleep. And so I get to the room. 591 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:27,000 That's a hotel. So I get to the I get 592 00:31:27,039 --> 00:31:29,720 to this hotel tea and they're like, nah, man, we 593 00:31:29,759 --> 00:31:32,039 don't have you. I'm like it's right here, Hotel Tonight, 594 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:35,160 right here, and they're like, yeah, Hotel Tonight's really bad 595 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:38,039 about that. They do it all the time. So three 596 00:31:38,079 --> 00:31:43,200 hundred dollars, no room. I called Hotel Tonight and they're like, yeah, 597 00:31:43,279 --> 00:31:46,400 we'll give you a credit on the on the app there. 598 00:31:47,039 --> 00:31:48,960 So I'm like crap. Well, I was trying to stay 599 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:50,920 close to the airport, and I didn't have to go. 600 00:31:50,799 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 2: To give me my money back? Are you kidding me? 601 00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:59,359 Speaker 3: Credit? Did? I? I went off these people credit? So 602 00:32:00,119 --> 00:32:04,599 I'm like, okay, well sounds like a scam. Yeah, it 603 00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:07,880 is terrible. It is terrible. But there was like one 604 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:11,319 room and the hard Rock Hotel across from the Mercedes 605 00:32:11,319 --> 00:32:14,440 Benz Stadium, so I actually did I had to use 606 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:18,279 that credit to get that room. So I got the room, 607 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,880 got down there. It was like, you know, midnight or something, 608 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:25,160 and so I booked a flight to Shreefport. It was 609 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:27,000 going to leave at nine to twenty am. I'm like, 610 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:29,480 all right, I'm getting to the airport at five am, 611 00:32:30,519 --> 00:32:32,839 four hours and twenty minutes. I'm going to get there. 612 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:35,960 It's not gonna be as crazy Notre Dame Ohio State fans, 613 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:37,799 most of them got home. So I get there at 614 00:32:37,839 --> 00:32:40,359 five am and I got through security I think at 615 00:32:40,359 --> 00:32:44,200 like ten forty or something after getting in at five am. 616 00:32:44,559 --> 00:32:47,720 And so I missed my initial Shreefpoort flight. And again 617 00:32:47,839 --> 00:32:50,160 everybody's there's no pre check. 618 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:53,519 Speaker 2: Is going on, just lines. 619 00:32:54,599 --> 00:33:00,319 Speaker 3: There was three TSA agents out of twenty TSA you know, 620 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:04,240 agent stands because t they said, oh, because of the weather, 621 00:33:04,279 --> 00:33:06,440 and it was you know, light snow in Atlanta. They 622 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:09,400 can't get to work. And I said, sir, how in 623 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:12,240 the hell do you think that all of us got here? 624 00:33:12,599 --> 00:33:15,680 It was on the open highways that y'all have, and 625 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:17,119 our ubers drove on them. 626 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 2: I mean, where is Taron Egerton when you need him? 627 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,279 This is his shot. He finally gets to work the machine, 628 00:33:22,319 --> 00:33:23,599 and he's nowhere to be found. 629 00:33:24,319 --> 00:33:26,000 Speaker 3: That's the only thing I could think of during that 630 00:33:26,079 --> 00:33:26,759 like whole time. 631 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,440 Speaker 7: Well, actually there's a qualification and you get bumped up 632 00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:32,960 because the movie told me that everybody can't read the 633 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,640 screen and so like that was that nightmare, I mean, 634 00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:39,200 and I felt so bad Tea there was Oh man, 635 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:40,640 I even hate telling this story. 636 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:43,519 Speaker 3: The sweet lady Gail that I met in front of me, 637 00:33:44,119 --> 00:33:46,920 Her mom was passing away in Albany, New York, and 638 00:33:47,039 --> 00:33:50,000 she was trying to get there. You know, they were 639 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:51,920 trying to like just keep her alive until she could 640 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:54,079 get there, and she just kept getting delayed. And she 641 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:56,400 was older. She was standing for five hours. I mean, 642 00:33:56,440 --> 00:34:01,240 it was. It was a mess.

Mike Gollie Junior was stuck. 724 00:38:06,679 --> 00:38:09,480 Speaker 2: Ben Pelt was stuck, right. Yeah, I've seen those making 725 00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:10,039 the rounds. 726 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:12,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, so I've seen. I saw a ton of our 727 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:15,760 colleagues out and about in the Atlanta airport. So I 728 00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,480 at least wasn't alone and I could share my frustration 729 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:20,079 with them as well. 730 00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:23,599 Speaker 2: Brian Burdes says, that's the best show that Jake is on. 731 00:38:23,639 --> 00:38:25,599 I love listening to off Campus. Brian. How much was 732 00:38:25,679 --> 00:38:30,079 take that, dude? How much was taking? Brian? You're my boy? 733 00:38:30,199 --> 00:38:33,239 Why do you take shots like this?

But I ended up I ended up 743 00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:55,519 getting beat by Charlotte last week. I'm I'm a year 744 00:38:55,519 --> 00:38:58,760 behind recruiting. Everybody else's teams are like five eighty points better. 745 00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:02,400 So I'm that annoying player where I'm playing like straight 746 00:39:02,639 --> 00:39:04,599 run the ball and I let the play clock run 747 00:39:04,679 --> 00:39:08,519 down almost every single time shortened games, play great defense. 748 00:39:08,599 --> 00:39:12,840 We just gritting out wins bit by bit. But yeah, 749 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:14,559 come on, man, with the new rankings about to come out, 750 00:39:14,559 --> 00:39:16,440 you dropped out.

Again, I 784 00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:07,440 begrudgingly appreciate it. All right, So we've been doing this 785 00:41:07,519 --> 00:41:11,480 series from Hunt Palmer's work on Louisiana sports. On that again, guys. 786 00:41:11,559 --> 00:41:15,320 Also that's my main resource, uh for for the Saints 787 00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:17,599 coaching church as well. Ross Hunt. The entire team's doing 788 00:41:17,599 --> 00:41:21,519 a really good job there. But today to Marcus Cooley 789 00:41:22,039 --> 00:41:25,239 is our Hunt Palmer player portal profile of the day. 790 00:41:26,199 --> 00:41:30,000 And Cooley is very exciting because he is a transfer 791 00:41:30,280 --> 00:41:31,920 and you know, we go through the portal players here, right, 792 00:41:32,079 --> 00:41:36,119 but he is a transfer that represents a known quantity 793 00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:40,360 at a position of need. He played nickel for the 794 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:43,079 Wolfpack last he was a retired freshman, so he's got 795 00:41:43,119 --> 00:41:45,440 a lot of eligibility left he's only a three star 796 00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:47,159 coming out of high school. But that's why I love 797 00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:51,320 the transfer portal because you get, you know, you can 798 00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:53,480 see how guys actually doing college right. And some guys 799 00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:55,960 are going to flourish that were underrated and high school, 800 00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:58,360 and some guys will founder that were overrated coming to 801 00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:01,039 high school. So Tomarcus Cooley, you know, h is a 802 00:42:01,119 --> 00:42:03,039 damn good player. He had three picks for US, a 803 00:42:03,039 --> 00:42:05,559 couple of fumbles, their nine tackles. Maybe the most impressive 804 00:42:05,599 --> 00:42:08,480 thing that Cooley had to be his PFF grade, And 805 00:42:08,519 --> 00:42:13,159 this has been a common theme throughout the portal. Player 806 00:42:13,199 --> 00:42:16,960 profiles has been PFF grades that would have exceeded what 807 00:42:17,159 --> 00:42:20,679 LSU had last year, and Cooley is no difference. And 808 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:24,440 overall seventy nine to six on the year. That means 809 00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:27,960 that only Braydon Swinton and Zia Alexander would have graded 810 00:42:28,039 --> 00:42:31,039 higher on last year's defense. His rush defense in eighty 811 00:42:31,079 --> 00:42:34,880 one to three. You gotta love some good perimeter Tackling's 812 00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:37,880 tackling grade of seventy five to four and his coverage 813 00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:41,079 grade an eighty. So those are some, as Hunt says, 814 00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:45,559 rock solid numbers that display some of the versatility. So 815 00:42:46,119 --> 00:42:50,239 maybe he'll be safety obviously that position of need. Maybe 816 00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:54,800 he'll be corner. But he is a key part of 817 00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:59,320 the dB overhaul, which may be the most exciting part 818 00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,880 of next year's LSU team, right with Jakeem Jackson coming 819 00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:06,199 over from Florida, Mansor Delane from Virginia Tech, and then 820 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:08,280 the high school guys DJ Pickett and a nanny as 821 00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:10,519 well as the young guys that you already had that 822 00:43:10,599 --> 00:43:13,119 are now in the boat. Jake, what do you view 823 00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:18,599 as Tamarcus Cooley's role on this LSU team? Yeah, so 824 00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:19,559 you have to. 825 00:43:19,599 --> 00:43:22,320 Speaker 3: Kind of look at some other players and maybe where 826 00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:25,440 you're going to place Cooley, because I think we all 827 00:43:25,519 --> 00:43:29,320 agree that Harry Perkins probably going to be the first 828 00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:32,519 guy to get the opportunity at the star position. Then 829 00:43:32,519 --> 00:43:34,639 you've had keys play really well at the star position too, 830 00:43:34,639 --> 00:43:37,400 but I think, you know, he probably slides back inside, 831 00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:39,079 so I don't think it will be there. I think 832 00:43:39,119 --> 00:43:42,079 t they want somebody that's a little bit bigger. I 833 00:43:42,079 --> 00:43:45,320 think they actually enjoyed having kind of a linebacker play 834 00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:47,960 that position, so I think HARRL. Perkins probably gets first 835 00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:51,079 crack at that. So I mean, you're still gonna play 836 00:43:51,079 --> 00:43:54,639 a Nickel in different packages, and also you need safety help. 837 00:43:55,079 --> 00:43:57,360 I feel like you've got some young corners too that 838 00:43:57,400 --> 00:44:00,800 are going to compete. You brought some in, is still 839 00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:03,199 probably the biggest concern, I would think on the entire 840 00:44:03,199 --> 00:44:05,480 football team. And so when you have somebody that is 841 00:44:05,519 --> 00:44:08,239 a little versatile, he's over two hundred pounds, to me, 842 00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:10,519 that just makes sense from day one. I think you 843 00:44:10,519 --> 00:44:13,760 could slot him in either free or strong safety and 844 00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:16,159 probably be your starter moving forward. So I don't think 845 00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:18,480 it's Nickel lot, I don't think it's Star. I think 846 00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:20,159 it's truly one of the safety positions. 847 00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:22,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I would I would think so as well. 848 00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:26,039 I guess the bottom line is this is I mean, 849 00:44:26,079 --> 00:44:29,159 when was the last time that LSU would have had 850 00:44:29,559 --> 00:44:31,880 a defensive back group this exciting? I guess it actually 851 00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:34,199 would have been year one under Kelly and which you 852 00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:38,679 brought in Jerrepernard Converse and Makai Gardner and Greg Brooks, 853 00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:43,719 and really the results were pretty damn good. The difference 854 00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:47,280 is all those guys basically only had one year left, 855 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:50,840 so you were looking at a bunch of short term rentals, 856 00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:53,960 whereas you look at a guy like Cooley, red shirt sophomore, 857 00:44:54,039 --> 00:44:56,920 so multiple years left, should he want it? You're bringing 858 00:44:56,960 --> 00:44:58,880 in a couple of great young corners. I think mansor 859 00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:01,519 delayne I have a couple of years left as well, 860 00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:04,039 So you could be talking about guys that'll be here 861 00:45:04,039 --> 00:45:06,159 for not just this season, but next season as well, 862 00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:09,639 meaning they get extended time under Corey Raymond and company. 863 00:45:09,679 --> 00:45:13,039 And it should be uh, it should be much better 864 00:45:13,079 --> 00:45:16,320 as we continue to heal from the damage that Matt 865 00:45:16,360 --> 00:45:19,519 House did. Which, yeah, by the way, Jake, how about 866 00:45:20,039 --> 00:45:24,719 Brian Thomas, Malik Neighbors, and Jane Daniels all being finalists 867 00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:25,920 for NFL Rookie of the Year. 868 00:45:26,719 --> 00:45:31,559 Speaker 3: Yuh me gosh. If Matt House ever came back to 869 00:45:31,639 --> 00:45:33,960 Baton Rouge, I don't know that he would make it 870 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:38,079 out like just like people are so angry, and I 871 00:45:38,159 --> 00:45:42,119 get it. You got three like generational rookies and you 872 00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:45,679 didn't make the playoff, you didn't make a conference championship game. 873 00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:49,039 You won some games, but my goodness, you should have 874 00:45:49,119 --> 00:45:50,559 probably won it all with those three. 875 00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:54,079 Speaker 2: All right, our one of the books, our two of 876 00:45:54,119 --> 00:45:58,280 OTB coming up, keep you luck off the bench. Hey, guys, 877 00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:01,639 I want to remind you about a new sponsor here 878 00:46:01,639 --> 00:46:04,960 on OTV, and that is Boudrou's Electric Man. If you 879 00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:07,559 want a generator, go with the experts that have been 880 00:46:07,559 --> 00:46:11,639 in business for over forty years, okay, and fifteen years 881 00:46:11,679 --> 00:46:15,280 ago became one of the premier Generak generator dealers here 882 00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:20,400 in Louisiana. In fact, there's about nine thousand of these 883 00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:23,360 guys locally, and we're talking about Boudro's being in the 884 00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:26,360 top one percent there one of only five dealers in 885 00:46:26,519 --> 00:46:29,960 Louisiana witch Generak and they specialize in generack and they 886 00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:31,760 make sure they're there for you.
