Speaker 3: We had a really good show play every day. We

27
00:01:25,439 --> 00:01:28,719
have a very full show planned for you today. In fact,

28
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:32,519
Brian Kelly had some comments yesterday in his media availability

29
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:33,079
this week.

30
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,879
Speaker 1: Uh, that kind of set the tone for the off season.

31
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 4: We have.

32
00:01:40,439 --> 00:01:44,319
Speaker 3: Excuse me, we are going to do a not a

33
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:49,560
tier list, but I've gotten Taylor as a visual a Jake.

34
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:54,040
I've gotten Taylor to put all the teams and they're

35
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,480
in their conferences that are playoff relevant, and then we

36
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,000
have a playoff tier and we are going to vision

37
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,760
usually drag and place the teams and try to figure

38
00:02:03,799 --> 00:02:07,319
out where we think the points of inflection are, like,

39
00:02:07,319 --> 00:02:09,520
like what like who are the teams, what are the

40
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:11,680
games the angles that it's actually gonna come down to,

41
00:02:12,159 --> 00:02:13,840
and who makes this thing? We had to TV mail

42
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,000
be I got Nick Underhill, we got hold the Mayo,

43
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:17,759
I got my girl mel and the aber coming in

44
00:02:17,759 --> 00:02:19,360
and tell you all about the Nutcracker at the end

45
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:19,840
of our.

46
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 1: Number two and well an the NFL storry of today today.

47
00:02:24,479 --> 00:02:27,479
Speaker 3: So as you can see, besides the last thing mentioned,

48
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:33,479
a a pretty exciting show planned for you today. Uh,

49
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:37,280
and what's better than uh, what's better.

50
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,879
Speaker 1: Than two weeks? Three weeks? Right, you'll understand that in

51
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:43,120
a little bit. What's going on, Jake, How we feeling today?

52
00:02:43,719 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 4: Doing all right?

53
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 5: Uh? Enjoyed, you know, getting to see my Bush League

54
00:02:47,159 --> 00:02:49,960
Bolts on Monday night. Fell a couple of plays short,

55
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,039
had a penalty. That was a penalty you got picked

56
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,360
up there, certainly wasn't.

57
00:02:55,479 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 1: I missed the end of it.

58
00:02:56,319 --> 00:02:57,919
Speaker 3: I was watching much of the game, but I did

59
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:02,080
not stick around for the end up going sideways, Yeah.

60
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 4: They were. They were down fourteen.

61
00:03:03,759 --> 00:03:06,919
Speaker 5: They throw it close to the end zone and they

62
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,759
throw a flag for passing interference on the Ravens. And

63
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,599
then the other official comes in and he talks to

64
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:14,439
the official who threw it out of it, he picks

65
00:03:14,479 --> 00:03:16,280
it up, they go back and they do the replay

66
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:20,360
and treatment. He's like, that's it's interference. Who knows what

67
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,280
the game would have ended. The Ravens certainly made more

68
00:03:22,319 --> 00:03:24,960
plays to win the game, but it was nice. Honestly,

69
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:26,919
it was nice to see the Bush League Bolts in

70
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,159
a game like that and you know, be well coached

71
00:03:30,199 --> 00:03:32,800
and play well and they're not they're not there, but

72
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,360
they're not that far away either. And also I thought

73
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:37,439
about you because I was like, you know what I'd

74
00:03:37,479 --> 00:03:40,159
love to hear, is this referee tell me what he

75
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:42,840
said to take him out of the penalty that he

76
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,960
threw out of his pocket, that was clearly past interference.

77
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,879
Speaker 4: But you know what, we'll never hear that. No, No,

78
00:03:48,319 --> 00:03:50,520
we won't be great though if we did.

79
00:03:51,719 --> 00:03:53,879
Speaker 3: Look, you know, that's a debate we have had many

80
00:03:53,879 --> 00:03:58,080
times in the show, one in which I am clearly not.

81
00:03:59,639 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 1: In the Jordy. I'm uh, you know, nobody agrees with me.

82
00:04:03,199 --> 00:04:06,479
Speaker 3: So maybe one day I doubt it, but but maybe

83
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:08,560
one day, uh they'll end up doing that.

84
00:04:09,319 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: Uh a, Landra, Mago Landra. How we doing today? It

85
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,560
seems like Magolandra's catching on? How do we feel about that?

86
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 6: I don't know.

87
00:04:17,079 --> 00:04:19,199
Speaker 1: It's it's a it's a tough nick you know.

88
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,279
Speaker 3: I mean, it's a tough nickname for me to have

89
00:04:21,639 --> 00:04:24,199
thrust upon you for to now catch on.

90
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:25,399
Speaker 1: So I apologize for that.

91
00:04:25,519 --> 00:04:28,879
Speaker 6: Okay, I don't think you do because you keep doing it.

92
00:04:28,959 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 3: But okay, fair, fair, Okay, that'll be the last time.

93
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,319
That'll be the last time that I say it. Maybe

94
00:04:35,319 --> 00:04:36,959
I'm whiskey wine. That'll be the last time that I

95
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,680
say it don't here that no all good?

96
00:04:40,199 --> 00:04:42,680
Speaker 6: I have those two sound bites you wanted, So if

97
00:04:42,759 --> 00:04:45,120
you're ready to go whenever, but if you're ready, I

98
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,199
was wondering though, like this is technically our Thursday. So

99
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,079
are we doing R and B Thursday today?

100
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:54,920
Speaker 4: Or I think we are?

101
00:04:56,079 --> 00:04:56,439
Speaker 7: All right?

102
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 6: I got you?

103
00:04:58,959 --> 00:05:01,959
Speaker 1: I got you Taylor? How are you doing? Monsieur? H?

104
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,160
Speaker 7: Well, you know, anybody knows me, knows that I'm a

105
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,399
big spender, right, I'm a high roller. And I put

106
00:05:08,439 --> 00:05:10,959
ten bucks down on Jake's Chargers last.

107
00:05:10,759 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 1: Night and they let me down.

108
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 7: So, uh, you know, thing's gonna be tight after losing

109
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:16,040
those ten bucks.

110
00:05:16,079 --> 00:05:19,399
Speaker 5: You know what, I wonder if JK. Dobbins stays in

111
00:05:19,439 --> 00:05:21,040
that game. I wonder what it looks like when he

112
00:05:21,079 --> 00:05:26,120
went down. It definitely changed the offense because they had

113
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:30,720
to become past happy and not the best recipe for success.

114
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,600
Although lad McConkie had another big game.

115
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, lads really good. I mean, so I watched

116
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:36,959
them first half.

117
00:05:36,959 --> 00:05:38,720
Speaker 3: It's the weird first half of the Chargers seem like

118
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,439
they kind of dominated, but all of a sudden you

119
00:05:40,439 --> 00:05:42,839
look up and it's like fourteen seven or fourteen ten,

120
00:05:42,959 --> 00:05:47,120
but it's a great sequence to make it fourteen thirteen

121
00:05:47,639 --> 00:05:51,639
right before half put unfortunate that's when I they.

122
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:53,720
Speaker 4: Ended thirty twenty three.

123
00:05:53,959 --> 00:05:56,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, good game, I mean whatever.

124
00:05:56,439 --> 00:06:00,160
Speaker 3: The Chargers are infinitely better they than they than they've

125
00:06:00,199 --> 00:06:02,079
been up to this point. I mean you're going against

126
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:06,519
in the Ravens, you know, one of the more established

127
00:06:06,639 --> 00:06:12,319
and premier franchises. Really, I mean of our lifetime. If

128
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:13,920
you talk about the Baltimore Ravens.

129
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:14,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, like.

130
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:21,399
Speaker 3: They have not had many down years since my kind

131
00:06:21,399 --> 00:06:24,480
of NFL brain has has come online.

132
00:06:24,639 --> 00:06:26,279
Speaker 4: They were always good when I was playing.

133
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,879
Speaker 5: Yeah, every time you played them, you knew it was

134
00:06:28,879 --> 00:06:31,079
probably going to mean something. Played them in the playoffs.

135
00:06:32,319 --> 00:06:36,399
Just consistent organization. It's like, uh, you know, the Steelers

136
00:06:36,439 --> 00:06:39,399
and the Ravens both there in the in the AFC North.

137
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 4: Or just that.

138
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, they might they might have years where they're not

139
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,240
the best, but their years where they're not the best,

140
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:45,319
there's not a big falloff.

141
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:50,279
Speaker 3: The weirdest part remains about the Steelers is that they

142
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:53,040
don't have the quarterback, like at least the Ravens end

143
00:06:53,079 --> 00:06:54,600
up hitting. I mean, I guess they never had the

144
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:56,399
quarter actually, I guess this is the Ravens didn't have

145
00:06:56,399 --> 00:06:58,600
a quarterback for a while. Its more just all about defense.

146
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,000
But uh, you know, and now they hit on Lamar

147
00:07:01,079 --> 00:07:02,920
and that's you know, that's a relationship that will last

148
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,439
for ten to twelve. How many years has themar been

149
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,120
in the league? Now we gotta be almost closing in

150
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:07,480
on ten.

151
00:07:07,959 --> 00:07:11,680
Speaker 7: Blieve this is either seven or eight. Yeah, makes you

152
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:13,519
feel a bit old. Was that he was in that

153
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:14,839
class with Baker.

154
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,839
Speaker 3: Josh Allen also bums me out that this is the

155
00:07:17,959 --> 00:07:19,800
last week of the college football regular season.

156
00:07:19,879 --> 00:07:21,279
Speaker 1: How do we get here so fast?

157
00:07:21,639 --> 00:07:23,759
Speaker 6: Was drafted in twenty eighteen, so.

158
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:27,959
Speaker 3: Spend big math all off season, all off season, so

159
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:32,040
desperately trying to get you know, to the season.

160
00:07:32,199 --> 00:07:35,199
Speaker 1: And now here it is, and it's the final week already.

161
00:07:34,959 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 3: And we're gonna talk about this Oklahoma again, probably a

162
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:38,160
bit more tomorrow.

163
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 1: But it's gonna be a tough one.

164
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 3: It's gonna be a fun one, but this is gonna

165
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:43,879
be a tough one matchup.

166
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 1: Wise for LSU.

167
00:07:46,079 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 3: But before we go there, let's go ahead and get

168
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,680
this thing started with some b case out.

169
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,839
Speaker 2: It's time to get to work. Courtesy of Tiger Labor

170
00:07:53,839 --> 00:07:57,600
and Staffing where they can help take care of screening, training, pay.

171
00:07:57,439 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 6: Roll and more.

172
00:07:58,639 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 1: Now for starters, all right, Tiger Labor Staffing.

173
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 3: Remember they are your local experts for when it comes

174
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:11,000
to your staffing needs. It's long term, short term. Remember

175
00:08:11,279 --> 00:08:14,360
we're not just forty new resumes. We're up at five

176
00:08:14,399 --> 00:08:19,240
am interviewing and dispatching every single day. So you need,

177
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,560
like I said something here, immediately, some more long term.

178
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,319
Either way, you want to get in touch with Tiger

179
00:08:24,399 --> 00:08:29,079
Labor and Staffing. So Brian Kelly was asked a bit

180
00:08:29,199 --> 00:08:33,159
about a lot of things in yesterday's press conference. He

181
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,960
was asked about the price underwood, the commitment what you know,

182
00:08:37,039 --> 00:08:39,399
he can't speak on specific players, but he was basically, look,

183
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:46,240
you know this is the it's larger than one player

184
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:50,559
and they'll still maybe take a quarterback there. But basically

185
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:54,120
that kind of transposed into a conversation about the transfer portal.

186
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,960
If you remember, in the past, Brian Kelly's always been

187
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,279
someone who has said, look, we want to build mainly

188
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,200
through recruiting and use the portal to kind of fill

189
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:05,519
in the corners, if you will. But here's what he

190
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:09,360
had to say yesterday about the Tigers approach to the

191
00:09:09,399 --> 00:09:12,440
portal in this upcoming offseason will be very aggressive.

192
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 8: I think everybody that's followed us knows that we weren't

193
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,639
very aggressive in the transfer portal. We put together a

194
00:09:17,639 --> 00:09:22,039
defensive line using minimal resources. We've really put ourselves in

195
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:26,080
a position and I'll use this term loosely to stay

196
00:09:26,279 --> 00:09:29,320
well under the cap. So we could be quite aggressive

197
00:09:29,639 --> 00:09:32,879
this year as well as bringing in sixteen mid years.

198
00:09:33,039 --> 00:09:36,399
We're gonna have sixteen mid years. We think that the program,

199
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,519
in terms of the culture and the standards are such

200
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:41,919
that we can do that now where we can bring

201
00:09:41,919 --> 00:09:44,840
in sixteen freshmen and maybe one of, if not the

202
00:09:44,919 --> 00:09:47,759
largest transfer portal classes as well.

203
00:09:48,159 --> 00:09:52,559
Speaker 3: One of, if not the largest transfer portal classes. So

204
00:09:53,759 --> 00:09:57,639
the kind of confirmation of what we had heard a

205
00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:02,279
bit that LSU came into last season shopping, you know.

206
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:02,879
Speaker 1: A little lean.

207
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:07,720
Speaker 3: They sought savings, they were seeking out to get in

208
00:10:07,799 --> 00:10:10,960
bidding wars. They went into the season with some money

209
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:12,440
on the table. Bit of a surplus. You heard it

210
00:10:12,519 --> 00:10:14,360
right there, right under for lack of a better term,

211
00:10:14,519 --> 00:10:19,960
underneath the salary cap. Well, the lessons learned from this

212
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:25,159
year of college football are extreme and it is.

213
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,879
Speaker 1: That you gotta spend it to win it.

214
00:10:27,919 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 3: Now, you can always overachieve based on your spending, and

215
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,480
it's not a guarantee that if you spend a ton

216
00:10:34,519 --> 00:10:36,759
it's gonna go great. I mean again, you know, look

217
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:39,720
look at Ole Miss. The dreams have kind of come

218
00:10:39,799 --> 00:10:43,399
crashing down around them. But if you look at a

219
00:10:43,399 --> 00:10:47,720
lot of top teams the country, be at Oregon, Ohio, State, Tennessee, Texas,

220
00:10:47,919 --> 00:10:50,559
Ole Miss, Georgia, right, teams that have been in that

221
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,759
top eight, top ten for most of the year, those

222
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:57,120
not by coincidence or also the teams that have spent

223
00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:00,840
the most. So LSU kind of changing there tun to

224
00:11:00,879 --> 00:11:05,120
bit and now Jake with money to spend because you

225
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:09,039
have the leftover sirpus from last year. You've raised more

226
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:12,399
money because you you recognize even the greater importance of

227
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:14,879
it now and now you're willing to change your strategy

228
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:16,720
bit and we have a lot more data on how

229
00:11:16,759 --> 00:11:20,039
to fit transfers in and what type of transfers you

230
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,600
should be aiming for and how to make that process work.

231
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:27,759
So this LSU team about to go hard when it

232
00:11:27,799 --> 00:11:31,399
comes to high school and the portal and really filling

233
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:35,159
out the numbers. And one interesting thing about guys like

234
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:40,120
Underwood de committing h it is it is objectively not good,

235
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,200
you know, to lose a player of that caliber, right,

236
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,279
But most things in life you could find some sort

237
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:47,080
of silver lining.

238
00:11:47,159 --> 00:11:48,840
Speaker 1: And it goes back to what we said. It frees

239
00:11:48,919 --> 00:11:49,679
up resources.

240
00:11:49,879 --> 00:11:51,919
Speaker 3: So if you want to bring those resources that one

241
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,440
and a half million a year that was going to

242
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:55,120
go to one.

243
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,799
Speaker 4: Player, maybe up to two million, That's what I'm saying.

244
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,879
Speaker 3: So what if that's now three plays for five hundred

245
00:12:00,879 --> 00:12:03,159
and k a year, which by the way, would have

246
00:12:03,159 --> 00:12:06,600
been the highest on Lshu's roster last year, Right, So

247
00:12:06,799 --> 00:12:09,240
you could see that you could use those freed up

248
00:12:09,279 --> 00:12:12,600
resources in effective ways. I'm not trying to say it's

249
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,360
a good thing when those players he commit, but that

250
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,480
is a silver lining that you look to take advantage of.

251
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,159
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean he mentioned it there. They were, you know,

252
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,159
not very aggressive in the portal. They had a plan

253
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:23,759
to try to do it through high school, like you said,

254
00:12:23,799 --> 00:12:26,600
supplement through the portal. I remember having a conversation with

255
00:12:26,759 --> 00:12:29,480
someone on the staff at the Heisman ceremony last year

256
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:31,159
and like, yeah, hey, we're kind of looking at these

257
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,039
four or five guys that we think can be nice

258
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,559
additions to the roster, and maybe we can move forward

259
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,480
with these guys based off what we have coming back

260
00:12:39,519 --> 00:12:40,840
and what we have in high school. Now, there were

261
00:12:40,879 --> 00:12:42,639
some decisions that were made after that that kind of

262
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:45,039
changed the roster, but I mean, like early on they

263
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:46,679
knew they were going to kind of be light in

264
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,440
the transfer portal. But I think as this thing continues

265
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,919
to develop, it continues to grow. You see that one

266
00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:55,080
not all things in the portal are bad. Right, You

267
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,159
can add through the portal and you can you know,

268
00:12:57,279 --> 00:13:00,320
certainly help your team and benefit from it. And so

269
00:13:00,399 --> 00:13:03,279
now them talking about being that aggressive, that actually is

270
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,360
really exciting because when you look at T Bob, who

271
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:10,000
the top ten teams were in the transfer portal rankings,

272
00:13:10,039 --> 00:13:12,320
Like not who got the most players, but who got

273
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,759
the players that they thought on on three were going

274
00:13:14,759 --> 00:13:19,120
to be impactful. Now there's there's really one miss out

275
00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:21,559
of all of these teams. All right, So you've got

276
00:13:21,639 --> 00:13:26,159
Florida State, Yeah, Yeah, You've got Louisville, Colorado, Florida State.

277
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:30,399
But then you've got old miss Oregon, Texas, Missouri, Syracuse, Indiana,

278
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:32,120
South Carolina, Arizona State.

279
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look, look exactly right, every one of

280
00:13:35,879 --> 00:13:41,000
those chages named are surprises are they're ranked except Florida State.

281
00:13:41,039 --> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 5: Now Louisville's kind of back and forth, but still they've

282
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:44,320
had big moments.

283
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:45,519
Speaker 4: They've beaten Clemson this year.

284
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,679
Speaker 5: Outside of Florida State, those teams that we're talking about

285
00:13:48,759 --> 00:13:51,600
that did well in the portal, they've either been ranked

286
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:53,879
for a majority of the season or they're currently ranked

287
00:13:53,919 --> 00:13:54,279
right now.

288
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 4: Like Syracuse, they're a good football team. Indiana, I mean.

289
00:13:57,519 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 5: Arizona State certainly with a chance to make the College

290
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,440
Football Playoff. And so if you do it right, you

291
00:14:03,519 --> 00:14:07,159
can add to your roster, not really mess with all

292
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,440
the process that you've built up, the culture of your

293
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,000
locker room. These players want to These players want to

294
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,200
come in here and they want to play well individually

295
00:14:14,279 --> 00:14:18,240
and collectively as a team. So if you have the resources,

296
00:14:18,279 --> 00:14:21,679
which LSU has a surplus right now, they've mentioned that, yeah,

297
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,919
go go get some veteran guys. Retain your guys. That's

298
00:14:25,039 --> 00:14:26,600
key as well. You didn't do that a year ago,

299
00:14:26,639 --> 00:14:27,200
and that was.

300
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:29,399
Speaker 1: I mean, that was the sin.

301
00:14:29,559 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 3: That is honestly what screwed you up more than anything

302
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:35,679
you would have I mean I still am really very bullish.

303
00:14:35,679 --> 00:14:37,679
And now the Stefens has played this season, but yeah,

304
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,519
you could have had maybe like a really could have

305
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,120
maybe like an upper tier defense and you manage to

306
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:44,000
get those guys back.

307
00:14:46,519 --> 00:14:51,399
Speaker 1: But yeah, you're right, retain an attack and you're.

308
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 3: Still well, it isn't I would say that you're still

309
00:14:53,759 --> 00:14:54,919
going to be a school that is going to be

310
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,519
mainly recruiting. But I mean, you heard it right there.

311
00:14:57,559 --> 00:14:59,720
He made no bones about its all the largest transfer

312
00:14:59,759 --> 00:15:03,840
portal class. So they're like, okay, and again you lose

313
00:15:03,879 --> 00:15:06,559
a high school guy. Okay, well maybe you go get

314
00:15:06,679 --> 00:15:08,919
now up a guy out of the portal if you

315
00:15:08,919 --> 00:15:10,799
don't find a high school guy that you think is

316
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:14,480
worthy of those resources. So an interesting sort of shell

317
00:15:14,559 --> 00:15:18,240
game that could be played now as resources are freed

318
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,360
up and you choose to invest them in new spaces.

319
00:15:21,559 --> 00:15:25,120
And so this first portal windows, especially the most important

320
00:15:25,159 --> 00:15:28,159
one too correct, Yes, I mean, because it feels like

321
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:29,360
last year they kind of tried to.

322
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 4: Play it away a little bit.

323
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,519
Speaker 3: The second one and then you just got slim piggest

324
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:36,120
of the prices get jacked up.

325
00:15:36,639 --> 00:15:38,519
Speaker 5: Yeah, the second one still will have players in it,

326
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:42,879
but the second one it's really like those defensive tackle

327
00:15:43,279 --> 00:15:47,039
offensive guard type position players where you're trying to get

328
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:49,159
into the nitty gritty and trying to finish your roster.

329
00:15:49,279 --> 00:15:51,639
Last year it was defensive tackle for a lot of

330
00:15:51,679 --> 00:15:55,240
these teams, and those players get overvalued because of it.

331
00:15:55,279 --> 00:15:56,279
Speaker 4: And yeah, credit to them.

332
00:15:56,279 --> 00:15:58,879
Speaker 5: I mean you got players that are some of them

333
00:15:58,919 --> 00:16:01,399
are just guys on roster, not even dudes, and they're

334
00:16:01,399 --> 00:16:03,879
getting paid because there was a necessity to the are

335
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:05,639
and it was the last time you could add to

336
00:16:05,639 --> 00:16:08,279
your roster. But no, this first portal window, that's where

337
00:16:08,279 --> 00:16:09,799
you get the most impactful players.

338
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, you didn't feel like Sime embarrass doing anything.

339
00:16:13,279 --> 00:16:14,559
I mean he could be actually I don't know.

340
00:16:14,679 --> 00:16:16,559
Speaker 5: No, he's playing, he's playing, well, he's playing okay, but

341
00:16:16,759 --> 00:16:20,559
like compared to what the word was around him and

342
00:16:20,559 --> 00:16:22,960
how much he got in the nil space, it's because

343
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:24,080
you don't want to be paying it with Lean.

344
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:28,759
Speaker 3: Yeah no, all right, so that was pretty incitful. We

345
00:16:28,799 --> 00:16:30,480
got one more conference, Colly that I really want to

346
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:31,720
play for me and has to do with the Rev.

347
00:16:31,759 --> 00:16:34,159
Sherry kicking in with the strategy there is for now

348
00:16:34,159 --> 00:16:35,399

here on o TV. Thanksgiving vibes in the air man

385
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,160
and what's not to be thankful for. We've got our

386
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,640
first ever twelve team playoff right around the corner. We'll

387
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:26,359
try to figure that out. We got friends and family.

388
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,359
Hopefully everyone's got somewhere to spend this holiday season.

389
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,279
Speaker 1: The vibes are great right now.

390
00:18:32,839 --> 00:18:36,400
Speaker 3: All right, let's go back to Brian Kelly yesterday as

391
00:18:37,759 --> 00:18:41,119
he was asked about revenue sharing kicking in on July

392
00:18:41,319 --> 00:18:44,839
first and kind of what it means for LSU's office.

393
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:47,039
And this is a longer answer here, but go ahead

394
00:18:47,079 --> 00:18:48,920
and let the entire thing play.

395
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:51,160
Speaker 8: I mean, I think we can say it's a fair

396
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,359
complete that rev shares here, right. I think the long

397
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,960
form from the courts is pretty clear in terms of

398
00:18:57,960 --> 00:18:59,960
what that's going to look like. I think everybody is

399
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:01,960
got an idea of what those numbers are going to

400
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,519
be you know that will kick in, you know sometime

401
00:19:04,559 --> 00:19:07,039
in the summer. It's what you do prior to it

402
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,920
kicking in. And that's really where everybody is keeping their

403
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:15,599
cards close, because that is the accelerator, right You want

404
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:19,160
to accelerate and be able to retain. You want to

405
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:22,160
be able to go out into the transfer portal, and

406
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:24,759
you want to be able to do that before revenue sharing,

407
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:28,599
so you can begin to balance off what your roster

408
00:19:28,759 --> 00:19:32,519
looks like in terms of the numbers when everybody comes

409
00:19:32,519 --> 00:19:35,960
into one locker, and if you just waited to revenue share,

410
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:40,279
it's going to be a different look for different players.

411
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:43,880
You can balance things off if you're aggressive here in

412
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:45,720
the next few months, and that's what we plan to be.

413
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 3: So Jake that right there is confirmation of what we

414
00:19:51,519 --> 00:19:54,240
had kind of heard and what we've been talking about

415
00:19:54,319 --> 00:19:58,039
in terms of the accepted strategy right now in college

416
00:19:58,039 --> 00:20:01,240
football is to get all the money that you have

417
00:20:01,319 --> 00:20:05,839
built up and you're collective, which you know in theory

418
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,759
exists outside of the school right to take all of

419
00:20:08,759 --> 00:20:12,519
that money, go all in pre June thirtieth, trying to

420
00:20:12,559 --> 00:20:16,319
amass as much bodies in talent as you can then

421
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:22,119
in theory, collectives go away, the school takes over, and

422
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:26,559
you have in theory a more kind of a pseudo

423
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,640
salary cap. Yeah, everybody's got their twenty one million dollars

424
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:32,119
spit or whatever, and then you allocate that amongst the teams.

425
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:37,079
But right now, and and you know, for the players,

426
00:20:37,279 --> 00:20:39,960
you know it's crazy, dude, it's probably gonna be well,

427
00:20:39,799 --> 00:20:41,039
we'll se Actually, I don't don't.

428
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:41,440
Speaker 1: Want to say probably.

429
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,480
Speaker 3: EXP have no idea where the market could go right

430
00:20:43,559 --> 00:20:46,759
like economics whoever knows right, But I could see a

431
00:20:46,799 --> 00:20:49,319
situation where the money does go down a bit overall,

432
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:49,960
since it's going to.

433
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:50,680
Speaker 1: Be more of a cap.

434
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:55,559
Speaker 3: So good on all the players who were born what

435
00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:00,759
two thousand, two thousand, two and two, like two two,

436
00:21:00,799 --> 00:21:03,440
what makes you eighteen or like like like two thousand

437
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:06,279
and two to two thousand and six because you've kind

438
00:21:06,279 --> 00:21:08,119
of been or maybe two that because you've kind of

439
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:11,559
been in the golden era here and especially these next

440
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:15,599
six months, a lot of guys are going to get paid.

441
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:17,160
Speaker 1: So congratulations to you.

442
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,799
Speaker 3: And I'm interested to see how LSU kind of tries

443
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,839
to win these battles when other schools are also gonna

444
00:21:23,839 --> 00:21:25,000
be pushing all their chips in.

445
00:21:25,319 --> 00:21:27,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's there's not gonna be It's not gonna be everybody.

446
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,480
Everybody's not gonna have the surplus that you know, some

447
00:21:30,519 --> 00:21:32,240
of these major schools are going to have. And so

448
00:21:32,279 --> 00:21:35,119
it's gonna be the major schools competing against each other.

449
00:21:35,279 --> 00:21:37,240
I'm not gonna say it's gonna be fifty schools. It's

450
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,119
not gonna be that many. It might be t fifteen

451
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:40,519
to twenty, Yeah, schools.

452
00:21:40,599 --> 00:21:42,680
Speaker 3: I think, I think, I think I think LSU probably

453
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:48,640
exists in a realm of top like seven, maybe somewhere

454
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:50,759
around there. Definitely top ten, but maybe even a little

455
00:21:50,799 --> 00:21:52,359
higher than than not until five.

456
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,359
Speaker 1: I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't know. Yeah,

457
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,640
I don't know. I mean I would guess.

458
00:21:57,559 --> 00:21:59,960
Speaker 5: They're gonna have They're gonna have resources to go get

459
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,880
some really good place, yes, and to retain some really

460
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:03,279
good play.

461
00:22:03,319 --> 00:22:03,440
Speaker 4: Yes.

462
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,839
Speaker 5: I think the retention in this little window that we're

463
00:22:06,839 --> 00:22:09,839
talking about is going to be very crucial for teams

464
00:22:10,079 --> 00:22:11,160
across the country.

465
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:13,319
Speaker 4: You start to look at and I forget what I

466
00:22:13,319 --> 00:22:14,400
did with the paper yesterday.

467
00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:16,839
Speaker 5: I started to write down the people that you need

468
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:19,079
to try to retain, and I can't find it. I

469
00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:21,119
said it under the desk. It's not there anymore. But

470
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,559
you start to think about a Garrett nes Meyer, you

471
00:22:24,599 --> 00:22:27,160
start to think about a Mason Taylor and just I mean,

472
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:29,400
we could go a bunch of different ways with a

473
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:31,920
bunch of different names. I know, CJ. Daniels is somebody

474
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,960
that BK mentioned yesterday, Like, there's.

475
00:22:34,799 --> 00:22:37,119
Speaker 3: Harold Perkins is you know he was at the game

476
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,119
on Saturday, there's I mean, BK said yesterday in the

477
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:40,880
press confentee.

478
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:44,200
Speaker 1: He was very open. He said he's weighing his options.

479
00:22:44,319 --> 00:22:46,920
Speaker 3: Obviously, we won him back, but we will support him

480
00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:48,720
no matter what he chooses, and we'll give him all

481
00:22:48,759 --> 00:22:51,440
the resources that he needs, no matter what he chooses.

482
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:53,680
Speaker 1: But Perkins coming back is potentially in play.

483
00:22:54,839 --> 00:22:57,400
Speaker 4: Emery Jones has a decision that he estimate.

484
00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:01,559
Speaker 5: Yeah, now you know Will Campbell gone right, That's that's

485
00:23:01,559 --> 00:23:02,559
a player that he kind of.

486
00:23:02,519 --> 00:23:04,160
Speaker 3: Knows what Yeah, I mean, I mean, yeah, I think

487
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,240
I think I think Will Campbell's still clearly going to

488
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:08,319
your first round paid. He's maybe something a little bit

489
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:10,240
in terms where he ranks amongst the tackles.

490
00:23:09,839 --> 00:23:11,640
Speaker 1: But you never know what's gonna happen during pro line

491
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:12,160
and everything.

492
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,119
Speaker 5: But in years past, like a guy like Hemery Jones

493
00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:16,960
isn't even in the thought process of getting back because

494
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,680
like I've seen Mick drafts where he's late first round,

495
00:23:20,279 --> 00:23:23,440
second round, like solid footing in the second round in

496
00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:25,119
every mock draft, and a lot of times that guy

497
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:27,240
would go. But now you have an opportunity to get

498
00:23:27,279 --> 00:23:29,079
him back. So it's about retention as well. You use

499
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:32,039
that those resources for retention and then you go get

500
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:36,559
you know, whoever you've identified through the portal or whatever

501
00:23:36,599 --> 00:23:38,680
the case might be. But I think retention is going

502
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:40,519
to be crucial with the funds that we're talking about.

503
00:23:41,079 --> 00:23:44,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's true, it's true. I do.

504
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:47,920
Speaker 3: Man, it's got to be so crazy to be like

505
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:51,319
an Austin Thomas, who's the GM of this team. Essentially,

506
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:57,359
what a crazy time to be in that position in

507
00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:04,799
college football where you are having to manage resources for

508
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:08,799
a market that you can't pull from past data. I mean,

509
00:24:08,839 --> 00:24:10,839
I guess maybe you could look at other teams to

510
00:24:10,839 --> 00:24:12,880
try to figure out best practices, but there's no like

511
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:17,079
freedom information actually, but like you can't really know exactly

512
00:24:17,319 --> 00:24:20,720
what other teams are doing or spending. Again, you don't

513
00:24:20,799 --> 00:24:24,720
have Uh, like you can't study the Nick Saban process

514
00:24:24,799 --> 00:24:26,880
and try to emulate it. I mean you are really

515
00:24:27,079 --> 00:24:30,720
out here on you know, the edge, the new frontier,

516
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,000
trying to trying to figure this thing out. And and

517
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,519
even this year, because like even this year, this whole

518
00:24:36,559 --> 00:24:38,480
idea that you spend everything for you there, even that

519
00:24:38,599 --> 00:24:42,240
changes things drastically. Like Jake said, what do you earmark

520
00:24:42,319 --> 00:24:45,240
for retention? What do you ear mark for acquisition through

521
00:24:45,319 --> 00:24:47,319
high school? What are you ear marked for acquisition.

522
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:47,519
Speaker 1: To the portal?

523
00:24:48,599 --> 00:24:53,119
Speaker 3: Crazy crazy times, But uh, here's to hoping that, uh

524
00:24:53,559 --> 00:24:56,400
you know that that they can figure it out.

525
00:24:56,799 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 4: Uh.

526
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,559
Speaker 5: Someone was asking inside the buy four chat about who

527
00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:03,119
is maybe the most valuable college football program. Now this

528
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:06,400
isn't based off a donor that will just say, hey,

529
00:25:06,519 --> 00:25:08,440
I'm Phil Knight, here's a blank check. But this is

530
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:13,119
actual revenue from the athletic department and the football program.

531
00:25:13,599 --> 00:25:16,160
And this was done. This was done at the end

532
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:18,119
of last year, so it's changed a little bit. But

533
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:21,000
just kind of give you an idea. Ohio State one,

534
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:26,279
Texas to Bama three, Michigan four, Georgia five, LSU six.

535
00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:28,119
Speaker 4: Yeah, so this I had.

536
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 3: A Georgia buddy who's a finance guy, and he was

537
00:25:31,039 --> 00:25:33,000
like texting the group all day the other day and

538
00:25:33,039 --> 00:25:33,960
he's wondering.

539
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:37,160
Speaker 1: Why you doesn't have money spend or it didn't spend.

540
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:40,920
Speaker 3: That much in nil and he kept like insinuating that

541
00:25:41,279 --> 00:25:45,079
there was like some sort of like conspiracy because of

542
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:48,839
those numbers right there right now. But I kind of

543
00:25:48,839 --> 00:25:50,799
have to continue to explain to him that that's not

544
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,079
the money that was being given, right I mean, you're

545
00:25:53,039 --> 00:25:56,000
talking about collective, you're talking about boosters and whatever, state

546
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:59,079
of college like riche all that comes into play. But

547
00:25:59,799 --> 00:26:06,400
in rev sharing era, you are lucky in that now.

548
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:07,799
I'm sure the people who are having to come up

549
00:26:07,839 --> 00:26:09,519
with this money might hear this is a teavop, you're

550
00:26:09,519 --> 00:26:12,599
an idiot. But outside looking in, I see something like that,

551
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:14,720
and I see maybe it's a bit of an easier

552
00:26:14,799 --> 00:26:17,519
lift for LSU to get to that twenty one million,

553
00:26:17,799 --> 00:26:20,799
like because I know I've read something like West Virginia

554
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,519
like whatever, how you know, how are you suppos to

555
00:26:23,519 --> 00:26:24,279
come up with that there?

556
00:26:24,319 --> 00:26:26,319
Speaker 1: Like there's a lot of schools where it's gonna be.

557
00:26:26,279 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 3: Very tough to just carve out twenty million dollars from

558
00:26:30,039 --> 00:26:34,440
revenue that you didn't have to account to before, whereas

559
00:26:34,559 --> 00:26:38,119
for LSU, again maybe a slightly easier list.

560
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:41,240
Speaker 5: Every school on this list is either SEC or Big Ten.

561
00:26:41,279 --> 00:26:43,720
I stopped at LSU at six A and m at seven,

562
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,079
Florida at eight, Penn State at.

563
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:47,599
Speaker 4: Nine, and Oklahoma at ten.

564
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, so every one of them is in the SEC,

565
00:26:51,079 --> 00:26:54,640
the Big Ten, no Big twelve, no ACC. Even teams

566
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:56,720
in the Big twelve in the ACC that are good

567
00:26:56,759 --> 00:26:57,759
football teams that have.

568
00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,279
Speaker 4: Been good for a long extended period of time time.

569
00:27:01,559 --> 00:27:04,160
Speaker 5: I don't know that's gonna be as easy as it

570
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:06,680
is other places to just come up with the revenue show.

571
00:27:06,759 --> 00:27:09,440
Speaker 3: I mean, have you seen the Signetti quotes some last

572
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:13,480
week about why he went to Indiana. He's like, it's

573
00:27:13,519 --> 00:27:16,000
about money, yeah, And he wasn't saying it's about the

574
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,240
money that he made, so certainly like he was getting

575
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:20,880
paid way more even before he got the extension. He

576
00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:23,720
was talking about the money that Indiana makes from the

577
00:27:23,759 --> 00:27:24,599
TV contract.

578
00:27:24,599 --> 00:27:25,519
Speaker 1: He was like, are you kidding me?

579
00:27:25,599 --> 00:27:27,279
Speaker 3: Like this is a day and age where money's gonna

580
00:27:27,279 --> 00:27:29,440
feel everything, and this like if you're in the Big ten,

581
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,079
you get a ton of money right now. And so

582
00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,920
that's what I'm gonna be fascinate to see. Dude, is

583
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:40,000
is Indiana. I don't know if sleeping giant is the

584
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,759
correct term, but they have the largest alumni fan base

585
00:27:42,799 --> 00:27:44,839
I think in the country, or maybe like second or third.

586
00:27:45,839 --> 00:27:48,839
Speaker 4: I wonder number one in the Midwest. I wonder how.

587
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:49,319
Speaker 1: They can.

588
00:27:50,759 --> 00:27:54,599
Speaker 3: I'm very intrigued to see if he can capitalize on this,

589
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,720
create investment and maybe be good for an extad amount

590
00:27:57,759 --> 00:28:00,559
of time. Anyway, So look, Brian Kelly, I thought that

591
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:04,720
was actually normally those press conferences you'll reach and find

592
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:05,720
some interesting stuff.

593
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:06,599
Speaker 1: I thought it was.

594
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:13,160
Speaker 3: Really impactful to hear him kind of lay out those strategies.

595
00:28:12,599 --> 00:28:13,599
Speaker 1: So clearly.

596
00:28:15,839 --> 00:28:18,440
Speaker 4: Quick quick search and I'll fact check this.

597
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:22,559
Speaker 5: But Penn State has the largest alumni network in the

598
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:28,200
United States. Number two is Indiana, Okay, Michigan, three, Michigan State,

599
00:28:28,279 --> 00:28:29,720
four in Texas five.

600
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, Michigan. Larry elisond you just make AI and kill

601
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:44,200
us all already, Larry, you bum.

602
00:28:44,759 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 4: I hate Oracle's Oracle, dude.

603
00:28:48,039 --> 00:28:52,839
Speaker 3: I think like cloud net, like cloud storage, like cybersecurities.

604
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:55,920
My father in law has worked with Oracle for years,

605
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:58,480
So don't worry. I'm gonna get all the scoopter and

606
00:28:58,519 --> 00:29:00,759
Thanksgiving and we're gonna take down an oracle from the

607
00:29:00,759 --> 00:29:01,319
inside out.

608
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:03,599
Speaker 4: Yeah, let's go get your father in law fired.

609
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 1: He's retired nuts.

610
00:29:05,039 --> 00:29:07,200
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, well, also get his retirement and pension taken.

611
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:09,839
Speaker 1: Look, man, you know what, I'm just gonna have to

612
00:29:09,839 --> 00:29:10,880
tell him. It is what it is.

613
00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 3: Okay, We're gonna take oracle down. They should have ever

614
00:29:14,119 --> 00:29:18,319
met with Brice Underwood. You know, get out of here.

615
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:23,240
Larry Smellson, yep, bum all right when we get back,

is better.

Speaker 1: Okay?

651
00:31:26,559 --> 00:31:31,279
Speaker 3: Well, sometimes art imitates life or football in this case,

652
00:31:31,599 --> 00:31:37,359
because not satisfied with having two weeks brothers playing linebacker

653
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:40,160
for them. Currently, the LSU Tiger has just got a

654
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:41,599
commitment from Zach Weeks.

655
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:42,680
Speaker 1: Oh check it out.

00:32:10,279 --> 00:32:14,000
because Yeah, he's also a really good player. Four star guy.

665
00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:15,200
Oh hell yeah, so.

666
00:32:15,359 --> 00:32:18,480
Speaker 1: There you go. So is he. I'm guess he's gonna

667
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:20,200
be early in Roly Did.

668
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 5: They say so if you're reclassifying. I wonder obviously that means,

669
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:25,440
you know, he's gonna be done with school. I wonder

670
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:27,920
how much does that mean he's going to be early

671
00:32:28,039 --> 00:32:30,039
or does that mean he's probably gonna have to wait

672
00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:32,359
until he finishes everything in May?

673
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 4: If he's like already ready, I mean that would be

674
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:36,759
you know.

675
00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:40,200
Speaker 5: Three and a half years, two and a half years,

676
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:42,720
I guess of high school.

677
00:32:43,359 --> 00:32:46,759
Speaker 4: To be a junior right now, a freshman sophomore.

678
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,680
Speaker 5: Though, yeah, I would assume he has to go to May.

679
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:53,119
But you know he's somebody, he's you know, thirty fifth

680
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:56,559
right now linebacker in the country come out of State

681
00:32:56,599 --> 00:32:59,640
of Georgia top fifty player out of Georgia, Top three

682
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:00,680
fifty nationally.

683
00:33:00,759 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 4: So yeah, that's just like a nice story. It's a

684
00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:03,680
good player.

685
00:33:04,599 --> 00:33:06,359
Speaker 1: Well man, there were the Weeks Brothers V. Version of

686
00:33:06,359 --> 00:33:08,599
the Watt Brothers. Uh.

687
00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:12,359
Speaker 3: What I've seen a lot is and and I haven't

688
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:13,839
seen this movie. And I heard it's one of the

689
00:33:13,839 --> 00:33:16,079
most depressing movies of all time. So maybe it's not

690
00:33:16,119 --> 00:33:18,160
bes Memeus, but I have seen a lot of Iron

691
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:20,480
Claw memes. Right, movie was filmed here in bad Ruge.

692
00:33:20,519 --> 00:33:22,119
Probably the best movie film here in bat Rouge the

693
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:26,599
last few years. Three badass wrestling brothers, right, crazy crazy

694
00:33:26,599 --> 00:33:28,519
white boys like kind of seem.

695
00:33:28,319 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 7: Started with like five but yeah, like three three did

696
00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:34,960
the little not the tag team whatever it's called with

697
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:36,319
the three they did, they did that.

698
00:33:36,839 --> 00:33:37,279
Speaker 4: I don't know what.

699
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:39,119
Speaker 1: I don't know what. They'd be called the try team.

700
00:33:39,559 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 3: Either way, I haven't seen Iron Claw, and I haven't

701
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,200
been in the mood to do the emotional lift I

702
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:45,400
think that movie requires.

703
00:33:45,519 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, I already knew the story going in, so I

704
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:48,799
knew it was gonna you know, I don't know.

705
00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:50,079
Speaker 1: So did you have you seen it?

706
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:54,039
Speaker 5: Yes, it's awesome, that's gat devastating Phantom Wait again, though

707
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:56,240
I knew the story going in, but yeah, I mean,

708
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:57,359
it doesn't make it any easier.

709
00:33:57,440 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 1: But just one day, I'll do it.

710
00:33:59,359 --> 00:34:02,079
Speaker 6: Very tragic the movie, but like the story is very

711
00:34:02,279 --> 00:34:05,039
movie is good. I can't. I'm like you, I can't

712
00:34:05,039 --> 00:34:06,000
do the movie right now.

713
00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:06,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, you got it.

714
00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:09,199
Speaker 3: You know, sad movies are great, they really are, But

715
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:10,760
you got it. They got to catch you in the

716
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:13,480
right mood. It's not an anytime movie.

717
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,039
Speaker 5: Uh, you know, Zach Week's being a linebacker just kind

718
00:34:16,079 --> 00:34:18,119
of give you an idea. And I definitely want to

719
00:34:18,159 --> 00:34:20,760
reiterate this is not just like a token scholarship because

720
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:23,880
it's the third Week's brother and he's actually rated ahead

721
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:26,960
of Keel and Moses like on on three, So I

722
00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:28,880
mean and Moses somebody that we've spent a lot of

723
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:30,880
time talking about and certainly a lot of the fan

724
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:32,079
base because he plays.

725
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 4: Right down the street at you High.

726
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:35,199
Speaker 5: Well, no, I mean this is this is a football

727
00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:36,760
player that eventually will help you.

728
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:42,440
Speaker 3: Uh, I think it's pretty sweet. Nope, that he's coming here.

729
00:34:42,639 --> 00:34:43,239
That didn't work.

730
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:45,400
Speaker 1: Guess what, I'm gonna.

731
00:34:45,159 --> 00:34:50,679

00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:10,280

loves ACTIVET So do I Active Batteries active br dot com.

754
00:35:51,519 --> 00:35:53,360
You know it's a pretty cool story on New Orleans

755
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:55,559
stuff football. Right now, it's about Elis excuse me, it's

756
00:35:55,559 --> 00:35:58,840
about New Orleans Saints D line coach Brian Young.

757
00:35:59,079 --> 00:36:00,960
Speaker 1: How about this, Jake? I had never really heard of

758
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:01,519
Brian Young.

759
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:05,280
Speaker 3: Really, yeah, And this is a man who got to

760
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:09,199
New Orleans in two thousand and four as a free

761
00:36:09,199 --> 00:36:12,719
agent d tackle from the Rams. He laid the rest

762
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:16,639
to retire in two thousand and nine because he injured

763
00:36:16,679 --> 00:36:17,519
his left knee.

764
00:36:17,559 --> 00:36:18,280
Speaker 1: This is insane.

765
00:36:18,679 --> 00:36:20,639
Speaker 3: He entered his left knee in two thousand and seven.

766
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:30,199
He has He has had twenty three surgeries.

767
00:36:30,079 --> 00:36:32,559
Speaker 1: On that knee alone. He finally got it replaced a

768
00:36:32,599 --> 00:36:33,159
few years ago.

769
00:36:33,199 --> 00:36:35,400
Speaker 3: Right, So he ends up getting hurt in seven into

770
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:38,000
his career in O nine, then he immediately becomes a

771
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,920
coaching assistant for the wrong and he's been here ever since.

772
00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:43,639
So you're talking about a guy that's been here two decades,

773
00:36:43,679 --> 00:36:48,280
the longest tenured member in that building, and finally the

774
00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:52,880
rizzler seeing Young's value for the first time he's been

775
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:55,320
grinding the develop for that long, for the first time,

776
00:36:55,519 --> 00:36:58,280
he is now the main.

777
00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:00,920
Speaker 1: Defensive line coach. Like he's on an assistant.

778
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:03,840
Speaker 3: He is the the defensive line coach is his position,

779
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:06,679
and we've given so much credit to the uptick and

780
00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:10,800
play from that group recently. I thought, like Mike Trippler

781
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:13,639
wrote the piece, I think it's very cool to highlight

782
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:17,519
someone who's been here for two decades grinding and now

783
00:37:17,679 --> 00:37:19,559
he's finally made it. And he's not a man with

784
00:37:19,599 --> 00:37:22,719
great aspirations. He doesn't want to be DC. He says,

785
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:24,760
I'm a grunt, you know. I like being hands on,

786
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:26,360
I like worry about Like being in the church is

787
00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:28,280
as far as I want to go. But it's cool

788
00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:31,800
to see him finally get that opportunity and to now,

789
00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:34,199
you know, have some early success with it the first

790
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:34,920
couple of weeks.

791
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:37,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I remember playing against him when I

792
00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:41,760
was a rookie. A great sleeve tattoo, that's definitely what.

793
00:37:41,679 --> 00:37:42,599
Speaker 4: I remember about him.

794
00:37:42,639 --> 00:37:45,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's kind of like in the Dan Campbell mold

795
00:37:46,079 --> 00:37:48,719
of intensity and kind of the person that he is,

796
00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:50,519
and so I definitely I know him as a player,

797
00:37:50,559 --> 00:37:52,800
and you know, I remember him just because he's been

798
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:54,920
with the Saints for so long, and you know, credit

799
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:58,440
to him for sitting there and just grinding away at

800
00:37:58,639 --> 00:37:59,880
like every different job.

801
00:38:00,079 --> 00:38:03,039
Speaker 4: As we list out, just what he's done. You mentioned

802
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:03,519
in O.

803
00:38:03,679 --> 00:38:06,360
Speaker 5: Nine's where he got to start coaching intern for two years,

804
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:09,440
and then for two years he was just a defensive assistant,

805
00:38:09,679 --> 00:38:13,280
and then for one year he was defensive assistant linebackers,

806
00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:15,719
and then he went to assistant linebackers coach, then he

807
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,639
went to outside linebackers, and then he went to pass

808
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:23,039
rush specialist since twenty sixteen. So yeah, he's been grinding

809
00:38:23,079 --> 00:38:25,639
away and not really having Hey, this is our d

810
00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:28,239
line coach, this is our guy, and now he gets

811
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:29,000
that opportunity.

812
00:38:29,079 --> 00:38:31,400
Speaker 3: You know, it's probably my favorite part of the story.

813
00:38:31,519 --> 00:38:34,280
Just a wonderful little detail. So he was a military

814
00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:37,719
kid growing up, and his school that he went to

815
00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:41,960
in ninth grade, Jake was his ninth school of his childhood.

816
00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:46,760
But because he's such a grinder, because he's worked so hard,

817
00:38:47,159 --> 00:38:50,599
he's actually been able to have his kids completely born

818
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:54,360
and raised in New Orleans all the way through, and

819
00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:55,159
so they've never.

820
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:55,760
Speaker 1: Known anything else.

821
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,599
Speaker 3: They've only been in And when he got the news

822
00:38:58,599 --> 00:39:00,320
he was going to finally be the line coach, him

823
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:02,400
and his daughters, they eat breakfast at the facility before

824
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:03,119
school every day.

825
00:39:03,119 --> 00:39:04,440
Speaker 1: It's like the tradition, and.

826
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:06,199
Speaker 3: So they were all together when he got the news

827
00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:09,000
from the Rizzler, and he was gonna be de Lion coach.

828
00:39:09,079 --> 00:39:11,480
It's a heartwarming story, I thought all around. Shout out

829
00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:14,159
Brian Young. Also, you want to know what a psycho

830
00:39:14,159 --> 00:39:16,159
he is, so they were talking about it. He used

831
00:39:16,159 --> 00:39:19,719
to get these infections with all these knee surgeries, and

832
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:26,639
he basically told the doctor after the knee replacement, if

833
00:39:26,639 --> 00:39:30,000
it gets infected, just take my leg off, like if

834
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:33,119
the bone gets infected, just take my leg off. And

835
00:39:33,159 --> 00:39:34,639
he said he knew he could get one of those

836
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:38,159
bands and still function. So this man was so.

837
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:38,400
Speaker 1: Sick of it.

838
00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:41,639
Speaker 3: He was just gonna ronnie lot his leg, get a

839
00:39:41,679 --> 00:39:45,880
blade and still be out there coaching pass Rush. Absolute

840
00:39:46,519 --> 00:39:52,159
psycho and he looks crazy sleeve Tad's sleeveless shirts, capri sweats.

841
00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:53,400
Speaker 1: He is who he is. He is.

842
00:39:53,599 --> 00:39:56,400
Speaker 3: Everybody says he's very genuinely himself. Shut up, Brian Young.

You'll love to see a guy honored after grinding for

844
00:39:59,039 --> 00:40:01,400

845
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:05,519

875
00:41:32,159 --> 00:41:35,599
Speaker 1: Bob uh Taylor.

876
00:41:35,679 --> 00:41:40,159
Speaker 3: You want to come jump on it? My trampoline in

877
00:41:40,199 --> 00:41:41,880
my backyard. My kids have been loving it lately.

878
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,400
Speaker 1: Nice weather. They're finding outside all the time. It's great.

879
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:46,199
We have a trampline. When I was little, I'm missing.

880
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:48,000
I never was allowed to tramplin when I was little.

881
00:41:48,519 --> 00:41:51,360
Mom wouldn't do it. Yeah, too worried about his getting hurt.

882
00:41:51,679 --> 00:41:52,199
I hate it.

883
00:41:52,639 --> 00:41:55,760
Speaker 3: I wanted trampline so bad. I was a little backflipping beast.

884
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:58,559
We never seen a chubby kid backflip like me.

885
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:01,920
Speaker 5: We used to jump off the roof to the trampoline

886
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:04,880
into the pool, yeah.

887
00:42:04,079 --> 00:42:04,679
Speaker 1: I think so.

888
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:09,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's like my sister's oldest boyfriend. He had a

889
00:42:09,679 --> 00:42:13,280
little brother my age and my oldest sister's boyfriend, and

890
00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:15,239
so she used to bring me over there. And they

891
00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:17,719
lived in the woods and they built a you know,

892
00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:19,159
they built like a ladder on the tree, and then

893
00:42:19,159 --> 00:42:22,239
they had a platform on the tree. Yeah that jumped

894
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:25,239
to one trampoline, and then they had a second trampoline

895
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:27,159
next to it. So, yeah, you can do that same

896
00:42:27,199 --> 00:42:29,800
thing off the tree tramp to the other trap. It

897
00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:32,559
was incredible. Yeah, that is the closest I ever got

898
00:42:32,599 --> 00:42:35,159
hurt to getting hurt though. I was doing a backflip

899
00:42:35,199 --> 00:42:38,480
and I went like too far backwards and I landed

900
00:42:38,559 --> 00:42:42,840
in the springs. But my leg got hung up and

901
00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:46,199
so just straight like legs stuck in the springs. Body

902
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:47,519
kept going straight on the ground.

903
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:49,880
Speaker 4: Your long leg. Oh, he didn't account for it.

904
00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:51,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, it actually was my long It was my right leg.

905
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:55,480
It was my long leg. Got me a little concussion.

906
00:42:55,679 --> 00:42:56,679
I think, I don't know.

907
00:42:56,639 --> 00:42:58,920
Speaker 5: And then then you know, because you got hurt, and

908
00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:01,159
it sounds like your mom's pre protective over you.

909
00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:02,400
Speaker 4: I'm sure it was a cam.

910
00:43:02,639 --> 00:43:04,280
Speaker 1: No, I didn't tell her. I didn't don't say he

911
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:04,960
did not tell her.

912
00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:07,559
Speaker 4: He is probably like, hey, Lock, it was Ryan was right.

913
00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:09,559
Speaker 1: No, no, no, she would have been out there with us.

914
00:43:09,599 --> 00:43:10,360
It was just the boys.

915
00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:13,440
Speaker 4: It was just still like if it was at you know, somewhere.

916
00:43:13,559 --> 00:43:15,719
Speaker 1: No, No, we're definitely definitely probably Lock.

917
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:17,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, and don't you dare tell your mother.

918
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:20,559
Speaker 3: Definitely not telling the parents, that absolutely not because that

919
00:43:20,679 --> 00:43:25,079
was literally I mean, we we spent hours on that setup.

920
00:43:25,119 --> 00:43:26,280
Speaker 1: It was so much fun. Dude.

921
00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:31,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, Hey, speaking of fun, LSU women's basketball having some

922
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:35,000
fun in the Bahamas, as they were in an absolute

923
00:43:35,079 --> 00:43:38,039
battle last night against the Huskies. They end up winning

924
00:43:38,119 --> 00:43:41,360
by one. You love to see a team tested and

925
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:46,679
come out there on the other side. Main takeaways from

926
00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:47,360
the win last night.

927
00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:49,760
Speaker 5: I had to fight back all game long. After a

928
00:43:50,079 --> 00:43:52,840
rough first quarter. You get down twenty four to eleven

929
00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:55,199
to Washington. Washington coming in was a six and one

930
00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:59,400
basketball team, so certainly a quality opponent, and then you,

931
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:01,079
you know, you have to grinted out. You win the

932
00:44:01,119 --> 00:44:03,400
second quarter, you win the third quarter, and you win

933
00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:06,239
the fourth quarter to be able to win sixty eight

934
00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:08,960
to sixty seven. You score with less than a second

935
00:44:09,039 --> 00:44:11,960
left on the clock, and yeah, it looks.

936
00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:12,239
Speaker 4: A good win.

937
00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:16,440
Speaker 5: This is a team, as I mentioned in Washington, that

938
00:44:17,519 --> 00:44:20,119
six and one, with a couple of nice victories early

939
00:44:20,199 --> 00:44:22,800
in the season, and you got tested and you showed

940
00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:24,199
that you can kind of get punched in the mouth

941
00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:26,519
and fight back and you win the second, third, and

942
00:44:26,599 --> 00:44:29,639
fourth quarter after getting down big there in the first quarter.

943
00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:31,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look, it's all about how you finish,

944
00:44:32,119 --> 00:44:35,159
right Taylor, did you did you watch any of the

945
00:44:35,199 --> 00:44:36,000
game last night?

946
00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:37,760
Speaker 1: What do you think, well, it.

947
00:44:37,679 --> 00:44:40,119
Speaker 7: Was yesterday during the day, but during off game, but

948
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:44,440
you know, just yesterday I followed it on the radio.

949
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:47,519
Speaker 1: Though, idiot guy. All I needed was to take on

950
00:44:47,559 --> 00:44:47,840
the game.

951
00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:50,519
Speaker 3: Okay, I don't need you to clearly show that I

952
00:44:50,559 --> 00:44:52,679
did not watch the game or don't know exactly when

953
00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:53,159
the game was.

954
00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:55,719
Speaker 4: I was going to correct you if he didn't.

955
00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:58,599
Speaker 1: I didn't. I mean, I like, pose here you guys,

956
00:44:59,400 --> 00:44:59,880
you're happy.

957
00:45:00,119 --> 00:45:01,199
Speaker 4: No, I need the radio.

958
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:04,440
Speaker 1: All I needed was to take the you know, all

959
00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:06,199
I needed it.

960
00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:08,960
Speaker 5: It sts up a nice little ranked on the rank

961
00:45:09,039 --> 00:45:12,519
matchup against n C State who was in the final

962
00:45:12,519 --> 00:45:13,199

963
00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:17,679
Speaker 3: Right, that's good. See, thank you, thank you, Jake. That's

964
00:45:17,679 --> 00:45:22,119
what I was looking for. Hell, yes, let's go little

965
00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:24,719
defending national champ from a couple of years ago. It's

966
00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:26,039
a final four team last year.

967
00:45:26,119 --> 00:45:26,480
Speaker 1: Thank you.

968
00:45:27,679 --> 00:45:29,760
Speaker 3: I think that's better information, right, winning when it was

969
00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:34,519
tipped Taylor, give a take now because you got twenty seconds.

970
00:45:34,639 --> 00:45:36,639
Speaker 5: Yeah, he was saying, take your ass to watch it

971
00:45:36,639 --> 00:45:40,639
on TV here and snaps yesterday, I'm believing I'm dumb.
