even though it can certainly be a bit busy around
this time. So you know, everybody, cheap your head on straight.
Let's uh, let's you know, let's let's focus on having
a great time this holiday season. You know, I feel
kind of like a bit of a missed opportunity. Uh,
maybe we're too late into it. Even though it's going
to continue in the spring. But we should make portal
combat and imaging.
Speaker 4: You know, we should have something in the computer. Flynn
and I did that, like portal combat. Yeah, like portal
coh literally like that pump. Yeah, I mean saying portal combat.
We did it like three years ago. Oh, it might
not be in there. Oh, it was like when the
portal started. It's like the one thing Flint contributed to
the show.
Speaker 5: What are you talking about? He wished to guarantee have
a birthday? That was great. Can we play that? Putting
together a big birthday?
Speaker 4: And I think we need to play I want I
think we need to play this take just that. But no,
he's like that so bad birthday.
Speaker 5: It's just like he sounded like he's off a card. Yeah.
Speaker 3: He was very very very gronk like for sure. Anyway,
So we're gonna get into some portal combat today.
Speaker 5: But what's going on? Guys? How How how we feeling
here on this Thursday morning? I feeling good.
Speaker 4: I actually had a fun day yesterday. So my boys
that play baseball, Hudson and Memphis, they needed new bats.
And you know you're gonna get him for the holidays
from mom and dad, you know, but it's like something
you you kind of need to see, you need to touch,
you need to fit like a new bat.
Speaker 5: Yeah, what do they eat?
Speaker 6: What?
Speaker 5: Bats? Bugs?
Speaker 3: Small fruits. Okay, that's the last one. I promise that's
the last one. Where are you gonna get the bats from?
Speaker 5: Anyways? I'm sorry. So I took Hudson with me.
Speaker 4: We went up to Marucci, and I didn't know, like
you can like demo bats, like, hey, this is and
so like he's trying different ones out in the cave
in the cage.
Speaker 5: He did.
Speaker 4: It was fun and we got we got a chance
to pick it out. Was cool father son experience. But
shout out to my guy at Marucci that helped us
out because he is a loyal OTB listener.
Speaker 5: So we talked about that.
Speaker 4: So I appreciate his help because I've got no idea
when it comes to baseball bats.
Speaker 5: What's good? What's bad? M Yeah, I have no idea.
Speaker 4: I've seen you swing at baseball bat and I get
why you don't understand what's going on.
Speaker 3: That's not true. When we did, we were in the cage over.
I did pretty good, and think about.
Speaker 5: This, gotten better. Your softball days were bad.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, yes, that was a long time ago though
I don't know what happened, but it's gotten better.
Speaker 5: Somewhere hit when somebody else didn't.
Speaker 3: Well also, yeah, I mean we went to it as
he needed, as we were taking one hundred mile an
hour pitches or whatever, and I'm in contact, got out
and play.
Speaker 5: A little bit. Chris Dorian did not.
Speaker 4: I forgot about that.
Speaker 5: But it was all just a big scheme. It was
a long con by Dory to be.
Speaker 3: Able to take his shirt off and frustration. Yeah, a
bit of a heady play to show off the abs
there from our guy CD. Well, that's awesome and it
sounds like a Norman Rockwell esque slice of Americana, trying
out the baseball bat with the sun, getting in the cages, seeing.
Speaker 5: The pop and everything else. That's fantastic.
Speaker 3: See that after Christmas all abouts and good stuff. Uldra,
what's going on with you? How you doing today?
Speaker 5: I'm doing good. Let's see I found something.
Speaker 4: Okay, pal, but then happy would like play like.
Speaker 5: To give you that segment. It's not going to be
really a conversation. It's just gonna be like.
Speaker 6: A quick yeah.
Speaker 3: But then he refused report that he commits the Aubery's
not committed over the crum.
Speaker 5: May doping, which is all actually true. Uh Taylor Syracuse, Right, No, No,
he actually came out and said no, he was.
Speaker 3: The report came out he committed Syracuse, and he came
out and said, oh, I said, whatever is recruitment, do
open it doesn't matter XAVI acts going over.
Speaker 5: Uh what's up, dude? How are you doing to doing good? Guys?
Speaker 7: Had a uh dinner supper club last night for the
very first time.
Speaker 2: Supper club.
Speaker 5: What an interesting combo.
Speaker 7: Oh I did not fit in at all. I was
the rally table. You know, it just it happens like that.
But it was a good time. I Uh my uncle
took like me, my brother, my sister all for like
a big Christmas dinner last night.
Speaker 3: So was great, dude. But it was your favorite thing
that you had. You had you had those uh roles, Yeah.
Speaker 7: The Barker House roles that were very good, very good.
Speaker 3: I like to combine those with the burnt ends day
burned into you make little burning samiches.
Speaker 5: They literally fell in your mouth.
Speaker 7: Thing I had last night was actually a side. It
was called truffled corn. Oh yeah, cream corn. But like
a lot more seasoned. It was really good.
Speaker 8: It's probably the best thing.
Speaker 4: As we often tell during holidays, you can't get gift cards.
Speaker 5: Oh what's that?
Speaker 4: Remember you can get the gift cards. We do that
every holiday season.
Speaker 2: That is true.
Speaker 5: If you want to go to supper club as well,
gift card is a top tier stocking stuff, or if
you want a restaurant experience on like any other in
uh in in in br even. I mean it's for everybody.
Speaker 8: Yeah, they let me in the door, so they'll let
you into.
Speaker 5: I mean, you look harmless, so surprised.
Speaker 7: I was stressed for the occasion. They didn't know the
personality before they opened the door.
Speaker 5: And did you wear a jacket?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Sure, did jacket off? Did you take it off later?
Speaker 2: Uh said?
Speaker 8: I left it on, not at the table, on at
the table.
Speaker 5: I don't like to eat my jacket on.
Speaker 8: Jacket was off at home, But at the restaurants.
Speaker 5: You leave it on to eat as well. I can't.
Maybe I'm just too too much of a big back fatty.
Speaker 3: It's just like, you know, it's a little a little
tight sometimes, you know, even like the tailored ones are
like a little a little bit un comfortable to sometimes
sit there and eat.
Speaker 5: All right, well, let's go ahead and get this thing started.
Speaker 1: It's time to get to work courtesy of Tiger Labor
and Staffing where they can help take care of screening, training, payroll,
and more. Now, for starters, try baby.
Speaker 3: Tiger Labor and Staffing fried reliable local staff, infolution, warehouse, construction,
and manufacturing position.
Speaker 5: So you need to help with temporary labor or long
term hires.
Speaker 3: The locals at Tiger Labor Staffing have you covered with skilled,
dependable workers. Remember we're not just fording resumes to you,
but interviewing and dispatching every single morning at five am.
Speaker 5: Tiger Labor Staffing. All right, let's get into a little
bit of the pertal combat. As there are still a.
Speaker 3: There are still a few positions of need at LSU,
and it looks like there are some irons in the
fire in that regard, except for one position that is,
in terms of actual news pieces. Xavier Atkins linebacker going
to be transferring to Auburn, joining that very good Auburn class.
Speaker 5: That continues to.
Speaker 3: Continues to grow both recruiting and the transfer portal. If
it does not work for Hu Freeze this year, it
will never work. He has managed to manage to rally
the troops. He has the Auburn faithful all in right now,
real quick on that. Have you'all have y'all seen now?
I do not trust the sources here.
Speaker 5: Who's the guys Ciskel and McCready or something.
Speaker 8: McCready and Siske.
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, That's what I always confused with. Uh Mccreeburt
and Ciskel, Yeah, sure, I'm just kidding. Cis Siske and McCready,
Tyr Siske and Neil McCready. They were putting it out
there intimating, I should say, alleging, not not you know, reporting,
but alleging in a conversation they do Mccaerron that Auburn's
Payne Jackson.
Speaker 5: Arn like over like two and a half million dollars,
which I do eat. I mean, could that be true?
I mean it might make sense in the fact that
it seems like the Missippi State thing was a done deal.
So maybe it took like a godfather offer to get
him out of there, but just something to something to
kind of a little smoke on the street, if you will.
We'll see if that comes about. The point is also
shocked by anything, if that's what you're asking Auburn spinning
you know they they they spending, They spending big. They
have a lot of money. This comes at a time
when Alabam's asking for money. We'll talk about that a
bit later as well.
Speaker 3: But Xavier Atkins leaving Elstie going there, and then Ricky
Collins in the transfer portal, it was reporting he's transferred
to Syracuse.
Speaker 5: He refuted it directly.
Speaker 3: I'm saying he hasn't recommitted anywhere in his recruiting remains open.
I'll say this on Collins, I hope he lands in
a great spot. You know, hometown kid. Tried to make
it here, didn't happen for whatever reason. I mean, only
one quarterback's ever gonna play. It's always hard you're a quarterback.
And uh yeah, man, I get him wanting to go
elsewhere to now try to find the field and find
his fortune, right, can't really been looking like a guy
like Eli Holstein. Right, You just gotta do what you
gotta do if you want to play. And his path
to the field here looks I don't know. Uh So,
in terms of some new names, LSU could be gettings
that of guys leaving, there's a couple more RPM or
whatever recruiting prediction machine on three shade Dixon and Company,
a couple more RPM picks RP for LSU, yes what
they call them, and probably well, I don't know. You
tell me what excites you more, Jacob d tackle or
center center, so then you'll be pleased to know that.
Right now they have Virginia Tech Center. Braylan Moore in
town and uh, we've talked about him. Three star out
of high school, four star in the portal, started every
game for the Hokies last season, played well, one of
the top rated linements in the Chanswer portal, and he
is being picked to LSU. He's not official yet, but
he's a red shirt sophomore. He's got time. Let these
six three three hundred. This is the exact sort of
piece that me and Jake were talking about in terms
of what else you need to be aiming for and
trying to pick up and if you.
Speaker 4: You know, secure somebody that's got that that much time
at center, if you wanted to move d J. Chester
to guard, or if you want to bring him in
and move him to guard, Yeah, you know d J.
Chester had ups and downs in his first year starting
I expect some major growth from him, but he had
like probably ten maybe twelve pre snat penalties this year.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and.
Speaker 5: His size is a bit big for a center.
Speaker 3: It can happen. Ever, since even Postak paid center, all
bets are off. But Braylan is that stereotypical six three
three hundred and Chester's what about six five like uh
that maybe you know, take a little office late. He
could he could thrive at guard potentially, So again, I
don't know how it would work out. But more starting
copper guys through against the wall, that's that's a win.
It's offensive line position of need. Uh for Ali Fomo
as well. Washington State offensive tackle visited l s U.
No picks in the machine there, but certainly you have
to get a tackle out of the port without whoever,
whoever or whoever it is. You have to get a tackle.
Maybe to be folly. We'll we'll see over or over time.
Speaker 4: I don't think that's that's maybe right now. Sorry, since
you lost both of your tackles, that's maybe prior toy
number one. Like you know, tight ends important too, but
we're talking about tackle, about protecting your biggest asset. So
you've got to go get a top tier player in
my opinion at that position, because you know, you've got
a lot of inexperience there. I think you wanted at
least one experienced guy that's been through the fire, somebody
that has played in the packed well and you kind
of know what it looks like opposed to projecting what
it's going to look like.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and we'll we'll see.
Speaker 3: Maybe he ends up going with the wazooc over there
to Oklahoma, but maybe LSU manages to convince him coming
down here. So off, the tackles still need, but they're
working on it. Uh, defensive tackle you would have thought
was a massive need if if you know last year,
like preseason last year was any indication.
Speaker 5: But on the other.
Speaker 3: Side of it, you feel pretty good overall. We've talked
about it, right, I mean you bring back I always
get McKinley's on the inside, right, I always get McKinley
and Relford like the the same.
Speaker 4: I don't know why inside Yeah, yeah, like.
Speaker 5: Evangel guy, I need to come up with a monk. Remember,
help me.
Speaker 3: Remember, But you got McKinley, you got mod Bro, you
got Jacobe and Gillery coming back. Uh, so you're better
there than but you still need bodies, and well, it
looks like you got a big body coming in city
or Mitchell Jake six' four three forty at the Boy
uh he played For Bo davis At texas in twenty
twenty three and then for whatever, reason he redshirted this last.
Year and he's actually in town right now through. Today
may by the end of the day get a. Commitment we'll.
See but, Uh Sadir mitchell looking like he too could
be joining THIS lsu transfer portal. Class so another position
of need box checked by bringing in a very big
body in a starting or rotational caliber player of nothing
else In Sidior.
Speaker 4: Mitchell it's two positions that you certainly can add talking
about center and defensive, tackle BUT i think you're starting,
to you, know wonder what it's going to look like
at offensive tackle like we just. Mentioned, yeah and also
the safety, position so.
Speaker 3: That that that was the POSITION i was teasing earlier
with one of need that is still kind of been,
ignored even THOUGH i guess to be, fair they did
talk About mansor having the ability to play. SAFETY i
don't think that it would be the the best use
of his, talents. RIGHT i think if he if he's your. Out,
WELL i mean he could be on the, outside but
if that guy's your nickel, corner like that could be very.
Powerful SO I i but but, yes safety has remained,
unaddressed and safety is probab, is without a, doubt the
biggest position to need on this team right.
Speaker 4: NOW i don't think it's even a question like right,
now who do you have in This bowl?
Speaker 5: Game like who do you?
Speaker 4: Have it's like you're gonna play some some players that
haven't been in there at. All, yeah you know that
would be who you have moving. Forward the players that we're,
playing you, know they're either in the portal or are
not playing in the bowl, game whatever the situation might.
Speaker 5: Be and so.
Speaker 4: You don't you don't even have a lot for this,
game but you certainly next year don't have anybody that
you kind of know what it looks.
Speaker 5: Like, yeah who's actually gonna play?
Speaker 7: SAFETY i Mean DeShawn spears is there outside of?
Speaker 8: Him? OH i don't.
Speaker 7: KNOW i, Mean allen's Got Jordan, GILBERT i guess would
BE i guess would be The shawn Spear.
Speaker 5: Burns will, Play, YES i MEAN i know the, star
BUT i don't think he's opted out. Yet so, yeah
that's What i'm.
Speaker 3: Saying, Burns Jordan allen's, gone, Right allen's, Gone oh you Got, Gilbert,
okay you Got, Spears Gilbert Gils, yeah, okay So Gilbert, Spears.
BURNS i don't know who the backups would, be but,
okay those are the bigger. Stars that is SOMETHING i
want to. Do at eight o'clock, today look at THE
lsu roster what it could look like for This bowl,
game as the media got some eyes on practice yesterday
and it is.
Speaker 5: A completely different looking offensive.
Speaker 3: Line so suffice this all to, SAY lsu is still
doing very well in the transfer. Portal looks like you
could have another couple names coming in that would increase
that very well. Rating but there is still one glaring
issue that you at least have to get one, player
and that you, know mon are not just this portal,
window but next portal window as.
Speaker 4: Well there's still plenty of talent out there at the safety.
Position Fine man was the only guy right now that
you know He. Oregon we talked about that the other,
day but you still got plenty of other players out.
There dennis The smith From, Arizona Dante joyner From Arkansas,
State Kendall daniels From Oklahoma, state guys that have a
lot of starts under their belt where you can go out,
there you can get an impactful safety still out of
the portal that's got plenty of starts.
Speaker 5: There you.
Speaker 3: Go so there's targets left to be, had just got
to go get. Them and as we said, yesterday with
a couple of million dollar matches currently a play right,
now and the initiation of THE lsu fan, base it
seems like the grassroots efforts are at an all time.
High and well we'll see if they can continue to
take advantage of the Tune Avenue. Safety coming up next
here On off The, BENCH i want to get To
greg burn. Tweet we'll still got to talk About Clyde
Edwards layer coming home as well.

Speaker 3: Though in this holiday, season we also live in a
time When alabama's down kind of bad.
Speaker 5: Guys out of the, playoffs pre, Losses Greg burn tweeting
like weniging the schedule hairy even.
Speaker 3: Though you didn't schedule. Hard you literally scheduled one of
the easiest everything you could droll you in as easy
as you.
Speaker 5: Could but it seems Like alabama not immune from the
financial scree. Squeeze this is a bit, long BUT i
want to read, it SO i think there's a lot
that we can infer from. It In Greg burn tweeting,
Out alabama, fans.
Speaker 4: What INFER i just never heard that?
Speaker 5: Before you never heard that? Work, no see IF i
used it, correctly deduce or conclude from, Evidence there we.
Go there you, go faith that you used it, Right alabama.
Speaker 3: Fans over the past few, years there have been drastic
changes in college. Athletics we've been careful during this transitional
period to protect our position at the top of college,
athletics well mindful of list and engage and learn from
our junior, supporters proud, alumni and unrivaled fans to make
sure that we protect our great traditions here At. Alabama
but there is time for tuck, in a time for.
Action now is the time for. Action although we make
competitive from AN nil, standpartner competition has us in their
sites and are actively trying to surge ahead with AN
Il you've heard examples of other teams using promises a
million dollar paydays to lure away our players and convince
them not to come To.
Speaker 5: Alabama it is time For bamination to fight back under
the new model of costhletics as a result of the
antitrust lawsuit against The Mtim, Lady university can succeed if
their fans purchase authentic innil from student.
Speaker 3: Athletes the good news is When Yeah Alabama that's their
streaming service was created last, year the focus was providing
our fans of a legitimate product rather than booster.
Speaker 5: Inducements notice the moral high. Ground Yeah alabama delivers exclusive
content and access you cannot get anywhere. Else we plan
to Grow yeahlabama's offerings with more, videos, features and news
in twenty three to. Five so please visit blah blah
blah to join a subscription to The Alabama is it
about the, Now it's about the.
Speaker 3: Future it's about roster retention for future, seasons keeping our
legends in. Krypton it's about attracting developed the best recruits
in the country to represent the SCRIPT. A you being
a part of the team has never been more important At.
Alabama we're not measured ourselves against our. Competition we are the,
standard and that measurement is against the mirror and against
a rich and proud.
Speaker 5: History but it.
Speaker 3: Is impossible to ignore what is taking place in college.
Athletics hungry fan bases are acting decisively to give their
respective programs for competitive.
Speaker 5: Advantages we must, respond we Are. Alabama Join, Yeah? Alabama
today he put we Are? Alabama, Yep, Marshall.
Speaker 3: Yeah who's ever said we Are? Alabama so there's so
much to break down. Here first, off h kind of
a you, know THE i don't know how MUCH i
Like Greg burns kind of public state the times when
he chooses to enter the public. Guy, Right he was
always thought of as a as a great, leader kind
of a premier, leader but he too is now having
a deal with the power Vacuum. Saban and there's a
lot of his success being attributed To Nick. Saban AND
i here's WHAT i would. Say the reaction to this
has been very. Funny it's been a lot Of auburn
fans in his mentioned being, like, oh what's, wrong you
need some? Money Because auburn actually has more money than knows.
ANYBODY i think that the most ridiculous part of this
entire thing is trying to maintain some sort of moral high.
Speaker 5: Ground, yeah to get him signed up for the streaming. Service,
yeah come on? Bro and what who came up with that? Name? Yeah? Alabama.
Speaker 7: YEAH i don't know what's funny because like the, tweet
like when he's tagging, him it just says yeah.
Speaker 8: Allah so it's kind of. UNFORTUNATE i remember?
Speaker 5: Who, YEAH i. Don't, yeah BUT i. DON'T i. DON'T
i don't what's? It AM i missing? Something?
Speaker 3: Yeah i'm sure there's some old cheer or something that
we don't, know like yeah or Yeah.
Speaker 5: ALABAMA i don't. KNOW i don't.
Speaker 4: Know but.
Speaker 3: Yeah but this whole idea of not just coming out
and being, like, hey you got, it we got.
Speaker 5: Money we gotta get you, know we need.
Speaker 3: Money this whole idea of trying to, maintain LIKE i,
said some moral. Superiority, uh in my opinion is a
complete Fool's errand now though all jokes aside and as oh,
oh and then the last part actually this does remind
me of. Too you remember that episode Of South park
where all the actors In San franciscans are all they're
getting high on their own uh farts they're they're stitving
their own farts and and it's creating a smug cloud
which is threatening to overwhelm the. Country the amount of
self flat elation sniffing that is going on in this
post makes you want to. Puke Uh, like, yeah just,
really we're measured by the.
Speaker 5: Mirror but.
Speaker 3: Whatever besides all of, this it does beg the, Question
jake all jokes, aside will this actually? Work because it
worked For ellis, You Brian kelly got out there said,
hey y'all want to, win we need. Money he then, said,
Hey i'm gonna put money in your. Mouth Is i'm
gonna do a million dollar. Match now the grassroots FUNDING,
lsu like we, said we believe it's on par with
Even old Miss like it's some of the best.
Speaker 5: In the if the best in the entire. Country so
will such a naked and bare plea.
Speaker 8: Work For?
Speaker 4: Alabama i'm not maybe. Not the way that he came
about it. Interesting you, know they signed up for the
streaming service because like there's a cap on that how
much it costs and how many people are really going
to do. That the guy that didn't give a piss
about nothing but the tide he signed up for the streaming.
Speaker 5: SERVICE i don't, Know Old Ti willie's all The internet
now maybe, MAYBE.
Speaker 4: I mean so it kind of caps like there's a
certain amount and it's not that. Much SO i, MEAN
i don't know that that's the way to go about,
it you know What i'm, Saying like you're trying to
get what you're trying to. Do, hey we have a
legitate product that you can buy WHEN i just asking for,
Money but how many people are really going to sign
up for? That and the ones that are die hard
and you, know the biggest fans have already done.
Speaker 5: That it. Is it is a bit interesting in THAT.
Speaker 3: Lsu was spurred into action by a disappointing season.
Speaker 5: And Losing Vice.
Speaker 3: Underwood and then an open just call for. Money alabama
has a lot of those same. Elements a disappointing, season
losing some guys that they really, wanted uh and then
and and and now here's your call for. Money So
I'M i, AGAIN i don't know how it's gonna play.
IT i think it probably, works but it's SOMETHING i
would keep an eye on and something that's going to
become increasingly commonplace and probably look increasingly sad as. Well
that is the other part about, this this whole idea
of like you've probably heard about these other schools offered
millions of days to take care of, Pators like didn't
you just Offer kean sab what like a million dollars
a few months ago to come?
Speaker 5: Over like, yeah you like come, on you, know, yeah
you're playing the.
Speaker 3: Game everybody is everybody is, rigimately you, know it's probably
that that's not the point of this tweet from, Burn
BUT i JUST i hate every part of. This but
maybe the part THAT i hate the most is THAT
i think this will probably work unless The albama fan
base has just checked out content doesn't believe into. BOOR
i don't, know we'll we'll have to.
Speaker 4: Work what do we think the streaming services per?
Speaker 5: MONTH i think it's like five. Bucks i'm not one
hundred percent about.
Speaker 4: THAT i was even thinking like it was, like let's
say it's eleven ninety, nine.
Speaker 5: You know WHAT i, Mean, like how many.
Speaker 4: It's gonna be more five? Bucks, like so to raise
two million, dollars you, know you need like one hundred
and sixty six eight hundred and five people if it
was eleven ninety nine a. Month so That's my point,
like are you really going to get that many people
to you, know two millions want to pull because you,
Know Brian kelly's offering a million dollars to match and
he had an anonymous donor throw a million dollars out.
Speaker 3: There, yeah so it's five dollars eighteen or seventy five
if you want to be a student starter Or All.
Speaker 5: Conference it looks like so yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah oh then also you can Be All american for
a one fifty month and you can Be hall Of
fame for two to fifty.
Speaker 5: Months so there you. Go all, right will it? Work?

Speaker 5: Wait DID i? Did? Bear alexander go To Penn. State,
yep that's so.
Speaker 3: Funny And i'm sure you all saw the tweet making
the rounds about like It's Bear alexander taking a team
picture and it says nothing sums up the transfer portal
in this and it's him in The Penn state uniform
flexing and on the bicep that he's flexing is.
Speaker 5: A GEORGIA G and then, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, yeah
it's uh, god special, stuff special.
Speaker 3: STUFF I and LOOK i was somebody who banged The
Bear alexander. Drum i'm completely, off, now completely, off. Dude
that guy continues to get paid on.
Speaker 4: Potential he continues to get paid off of two sacks AGAINST.
Speaker 5: Tcu in a game in which they won sixty three to.
Speaker 3: Seven yeah, yeah this his size, here it is look
at him all. Right Clyde edwards D lair one OF
lsu fans', favorites, RIGHT a man who was as critical
to the twenty Nineteen national championship as anyone on that.
Team returning to the boot as The New Orleans saints
have Picked Clyde Edwards laire. Up they put him on
the practice squad and before you get into what he
can do to help the, team. AGAIN i just want
to Celebrate clyde, right one of the great champions of
the boot critical LIKE i said in twenty, nineteen probably
had the greatest quote, ever throw your heart across the
line and the body will. Follow taylor mentioned The alabama.
Game whether it's some of those touchdowns late the third
and eight conversion catchery gets it like he catches it
at his shoe, STRINGS i, mean massive play after massive
play in a game where you had to have.
Speaker 5: It he goes on to THE.
Speaker 3: Nfl he has Two Super bowl. Rings legend in every
sense of the. Word and here's to hoping that he
can find both mental and physical success here because obviously
one of his he's been dealing and he's on the
record of saying, this you, know supposed to. Think he
was on the non football injury list earlier this year
dealing with SOME ptsd from an incident in which there's
an attempted robbery with him and a teammate back in
college and a gun was pulled on, him And clyde
defended himself and ended, up LIKE i, said offending himself
and and and and killing the. Assailant no legal troubles
because he's right with his. Rights but you know that's
that's something THAT i think it's impossible to go through
and not emerge the other side, unscathed and sometimes it
might take years to come out. Right and and so
he's been dealing with, internalizing and it seems like he
took some time for it this, year and SO i
hope again that that healing process continues for one of
the most Beloved tigers and great champions of the.
Speaker 5: Boot my question to, You.
Speaker 3: Jake is only a few, games but three games left
this football. Season this is very late in the game practice, squad,
AK i, like can does he have a? Role do
you see him actually on a game day field at
some point this?
Speaker 5: YEAR i think he.
Speaker 4: COULD i mean when you look at what you have
available and what he can bring to the. Table he's
a veteran. Player he can learn the offense pretty. Quickly
like and again it's a running back, position so it's
not like it's. Quarterback there's there's not as much you
can give him five. Plays you tell him what your protection. Is,
hey here's our sub. Protection here's what we call. It four,
Down mike's fifty. Five you got everybody. ELSE i, mean
so like those things are things THAT i think a
veteran player Like clyde could, learn depending on you, know
how much they want to see of him and you,
know do they have a future, Playing, Like, hey we
feel like we kind of got this guy obviously under the.
Radar we feel like there's some value that he could
bring to us and what we're trying to get. Done,
YEAH i mean, absolutely he can go out. THERE i
don't know how many, games if it's all three, games
if it's two, games if it's one, game like whatever it,
is but he can get on the field and then
maybe have a conversation of trying to bring him.
Speaker 3: Back if you sign On, wednesday there's no way he'll
be on the game Day Russer sunday now where you're
saying you think he potentially, No wednesday's.
Speaker 5: Late it Feels.
Speaker 4: Monday even if it Was monday with a day off
in which SO i signed With denver on A, monday
BUT i had That, TUESDAY so Had.
Speaker 5: Monday, practice do the whole. Deal BUT i had all Day.
Speaker 4: Tuesday Brock osweiler had to meet me at the facility
and he had to go over. Everything when he's a,
rookie he was a backup, quarterback and so he had
to meet me. There we were there all day. Long
you don't have that extra all day long. Day so
maybe maybe Not wednesday does feel kind of, late but
not this, week but next week he potentially could be
on the.
Speaker 3: Field and when you think about WHERE i want to
Talk Kendram, Miler, Lidbury deebro Where Kendream miillier, struggles it's pass.
Speaker 5: Protection clyde's a.
Speaker 3: Veteran As jake, said maybe you bring me in he
becomes a third down. Option not entirely, sure but, nonetheless you, know,
Regardless i'm just happy That Clyde Edwards hilaire going to
be back in the boot and in a season where
there's not a ton to play for look forward to
from A saints. Standpoint we'll Talk packers coming up as.
Well it's it's it's nice to maybe, like, like what
If clyde has a moment at the end of this
year that that could be a silver lining to an
otherwise kind of lost season for The New Orleans.
Speaker 5: Saints to who that, Nation so.
Speaker 3: Shout Out, clyde welcome. Home when we get, back let's
close out our number.
Speaker 4: One you have an extra, Day, yeah you have an
extra day because it Is monday.
Speaker 5: Night that it's.
Speaker 3: True all, right when we get, back close out our
number one OF o twob off the, bench go to
all Start toyota bad roofs dot. Com all Start toyota
Of Baton rouge dot. Com all Start toyota there for.
You if you need a brand new, vehicle maybe you
want to get A toyota use vehicle where you still

or Whatever Toyota thun's going on right, now which we
found a shocking statistic. Yesterday, taylor good work. Here shout
out To, taylor broken clock and all. That As, Uh
jordan Loved, jake who we talked about in yesterday's, Show
Green Bay packer quarterback and this is not a good
sign for The New Orleans. Saints jordan loves touchdown to

Two and, unfortunately, guys it Is Toyota, thon which actually
fortunate for you, though because you get a great.
Speaker 5: Deal it's not good for The, SAINTS i good for the.
State no ad.
Speaker 1: Recipe welcome in to the best morning, sports this show
around off The bench With.
Speaker 2: Esther and T.
Speaker 5: Bob what happened? Y'all welkme, back OTB i hope you
have an excellent. Morning Caden salter To, COLORADO i wonder if.
THAT i don't.
Speaker 3: KNOW i don't know what to make A Caiden salter right.
Now he had a massive step back from two years,
ago and he was playing in an advantage. Spot Right
if you were playing For liberty for the last two
years on any Given, saturday you were more probably better
than the opponent with way more money put into your,
program way more money put into your. Team so to
see that step, Back i'd be a bit concern. About,
also there's kind of some advanced analytics And Cadence salter
where it's like he was inaccurate two years ago but
was kind of having success to spite. It like you
remember somebody tweeting me a thing and then being, like you,
know an accuracy always catches, up or something along those.
Speaker 5: Lines so we'll, see we'll.
Speaker 3: See but make no mistake for Coach brime And colorado
they got a lot to, replace maybe the number one
pick in the ENTIRE nfl, draft the Heuisand trophy, winner and,
OBVIOUSLY i mean when you're talking about shooter, centers the
number one pick, quarterback like there's nothing more important than
getting that quarterback.
Speaker 5: Right if they, don't who knows what happens To. Colorado we'll,
See we'll, See but it does look like Coach prim's
gonna be.
Speaker 7: There has As Jamie, chadwell has he called Out dean?
YET i know he was super pissy when uls you GOT.
Cj daniels last, year SO i didn't know if he
had he had came out, AGAIN i.
Speaker 3: Know which again is so funny to me because everyone
lives in glass houses, here as they just kind of alluded, to, Like,
okay you're upset because a bigger school paid more money
to take your, player but, like at the same, time
you have more money than all of your. Peers you're
spending more money than everybody you compete. Against so like
you're on an uneven playing field almost every single, weekend
and you wrote it all the way into a Major
bowl game in year one At.
Speaker 5: Liberty so.
Speaker 3: What's this about a jewel? Settlement going into. Nil has
anybody read this story?
Speaker 4: Yet, Yeah so apparently the state Of louisiana Sued Jewel
jewel that was called.
Speaker 5: Jewel like, jewel the the, Bait, yes THE usb stick
you see all the young kids.
Speaker 4: Doing so they WELL i think they did, Now so
they sued, them AND i believe ten million dollars is the.
Number and so the state is actually going to PAY
lsu And Louisiana lafayette athletes do an nil deal to
film like A. Psa hell, yeah on the effects of.
Vaping so the state's taking that money that they won
in the settlement.
Speaker 5: And giving it back to The Louisiana.
Speaker 3: Lafiatte they should let me direct the direct the. Commercials
