Speaker 1: In the sports page with The Orlando Sentinel at FM
Speaker 1: ninety six to nine.
Speaker 2: The Games Mike the Bulldog BEYONDI Jr. R.
Speaker 3: Bulldog Sports Page brought you by Kaufin and Lend Injury Attorneys.
Speaker 3: Good morning, Mike Bianchi from somewhere deep in the bows
Speaker 3: of Metro West inside the luxury condo that's right.
Speaker 4: Where do we want to start this morning? Have you
Speaker 4: heard about the controversy up in Gainesville.
Speaker 3: That Florida fans want Lane Kiffin to come here?
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, yeah, there's that.
Speaker 3: Doesn't doesn't that sound very similar to the setup that
Speaker 3: Miami fans went through started banging the Mario Crystal ball drum,
Speaker 3: and I thought it sounded absolutely ridiculous at the time.
Speaker 3: There's no way he's gonna leave that Oregon gig to
Speaker 3: come here, and boom he did, And then you know,
Speaker 3: you could think the same thing about Lane.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think so well, it could happen, but
Speaker 4: you were only one game into the season, so I
Speaker 4: think it's a little premature to say Billy Napier is
Speaker 4: going to he fired, Although there is a lot of
Speaker 4: criticism and everything the guy does now is being scrutinized
Speaker 4: to the umpteenth degree. So the latest was his press conference. Well, no,
Speaker 4: that was after the game. Yeah, after the game there,
Speaker 4: you know, he's, you know, gets up for his press
Speaker 4: conference on Saturday night and he's trying to unscrew a
Speaker 4: water bottle and can't get the top off of it,
Speaker 4: and it went viral. Of course, this guy can't get
Speaker 4: the top off of his water bottle, and it's like,
Speaker 4: you know, Gator fans are making fun of him. And
Speaker 4: then his Monday press conference, all right, he was asked about,
Speaker 4: you know, the negativity surrounding his program on social media
Speaker 4: and how he has his players deal with it, and
Speaker 4: his quote was his quote was pipe at fans. He said,
Speaker 4: we can't pay attention to guys in their basements in
Speaker 4: rural central Florida. So basements in rural central Florida became
Speaker 4: a catchphrase, and what happened the UCF Kingdom Collective. All right,
Speaker 4: they're now putting out t shirts that say rural central
Speaker 4: Florida on the front, selling him for twenty five dollars each.
Speaker 4: So yeah, I mean it's a Paul finebomb absolutely ripped
Speaker 4: napier for you, saying he's disrespecting fans and this and that.
Speaker 3: And I want to know where these basement homes are,
Speaker 3: because boy oh boy, I would love to get a
Speaker 3: hold of one of those. Maybe redo it into a
Speaker 3: man cave or something usually not a selling feature of
Speaker 3: homes here in rural central Florida, pool table or something.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean to me, this is much ado about nothing.
Speaker 4: But again he's being scrutinized to the umpteenth degree for
Speaker 4: everything he says. He makes an off the off the
Speaker 4: cuff comment and boom it blows up and Paul finebombs ripping.
Speaker 4: I would say this to Billy Naper though you mentioned basement.
Speaker 4: I like living in mom's basement New Matilla.
Speaker 2: The rents.
Speaker 1: It's good, right, Yeah, this time of the year, there's
Speaker 1: a little flooding going on with all these big trential
Speaker 1: storms as of late.
Speaker 3: But and your basement is literally below the limestone in
Speaker 3: the water table.
Speaker 1: Right, So get ready get ready in Napier. What is it,
Speaker 1: August fifth? I think that game is October fifth, October,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, get ready, Bud. August is in the books.
Speaker 4: Yeah, right. Uh. Florida State fell out of the AP
Speaker 4: College Football Poll zero and two. They're the first team
Speaker 4: to fall out of the first top ten team to
Speaker 4: fall out, first preseason top ten ranked team to go
Speaker 4: unranked in two games since.
Speaker 2: Nineteen eighty nine. So yeah, it hasn't happened in a
Speaker 2: long time.
Speaker 4: Of course, Florida State lost to two unranked opponents, although
Speaker 4: Georgia Tech is now ranked, but Florida State out of
Speaker 4: the rankings. I gotta tell you, when you get players
Speaker 4: out of the transfer portal year in and year out, Essentially,
Speaker 4: teams are remaking their rosters every year, and these players
Speaker 4: are leaving their former school because why they're getting paid
Speaker 4: right when that happens, you might be getting talent, but
Speaker 4: you're not getting leadership. In Florida State, to me, has
Speaker 4: a lack of leadership. As more and more teams rebuild
Speaker 4: their teams on a yearly basis out of the portal,
Speaker 4: we're going to see more and more of these wild
Speaker 4: swings of teams being really good one year and perhaps
Speaker 4: really bad the next year.
Speaker 2: I think it's gonna happen.
Speaker 1: You know what, was all all these transfers over cash
Speaker 1: and everything. I want to get down to the nitty
Speaker 1: gritty of things and let's do a grade check. Let's
Speaker 1: do a grade check on all these athletes that are
Speaker 1: portal in grades. Yeah, exactly. I want to test them
Speaker 1: all and say, hey, how are we doing now? Guys,
Speaker 1: you don't have Martha over there taking your test for you.
Speaker 3: They out the windows.
Speaker 1: You have you a million dollar shoe contract.
Speaker 3: Education.
Speaker 2: Nobody cares about the education.
Speaker 3: Speaking of bad, is it just me? Or is the
Speaker 3: schedule of games this weekend even arguably worse than last weekend?
Speaker 2: Oh? Yeah, the college game this weekend are terrible.
Speaker 3: I mean, there's a handful of good ones. But wouldn't
Speaker 3: you just.
Speaker 4: Playing Samford, UCS playing Sam Houston. I don't even know
Speaker 4: Miami's playing FAMU I think.
Speaker 1: Guys, yeah, wouldn't you schedule it like that if you
Speaker 1: were in charge of the schedule with uh With the
Speaker 1: opening of NFL season, well, I know it's different days,
Speaker 1: but no NFL is every day this week.
Speaker 4: Yeah, the NFL is gonna take over starting tomorrow, we'll
Speaker 4: get into the NFL. We got Baltimore Kansas City tomorrow.
Speaker 4: Then Friday night they have a game. And by the way,
Speaker 4: I don't like all these NFL games on Peacock and
Speaker 4: these other streaming services.
Speaker 2: I don't have Peacock. Okay, so I'm with you on that.
Speaker 2: So what else we got?
Speaker 4: Ricky Piersoll, the former Gator current San Francisco forty nine
Speaker 4: ers wide receiver who got shot during a robbery attempt
Speaker 4: by a seventeen year old over the weekend. The seventeen
Speaker 4: year old has now been hit with three felonies, including
Speaker 4: attempted murder.
Speaker 3: But will still be trialed tried in juvenile court.
Speaker 4: Although I was reading the story it says essentially, yes,
Speaker 4: right now, he's being tried as a juvenile, but they
Speaker 4: do have the option to try him as an adult.
Speaker 4: I think he should be tried as an adult. I
Speaker 4: have no problem with charging seventeen year olds as juveniles
Speaker 4: as long as they're committing juvenile crimes. But this isn't shoplifting, right,
Speaker 4: californianis This isn't stealing a car. This is like taking
Speaker 4: a semi automatic weapon and robbing somebody and shooting him
Speaker 4: in the process. You're seventeen years old, crying out loud,
Speaker 4: You're not twelve. So this guy knows the difference between
Speaker 4: right and wrong, So charge him as an adult.
Speaker 1: Speaking of a semi automatic. This is where Bob World
Speaker 1: Order comes in. Normally, Bob BW is only Mike, you
Speaker 1: probably don't know about the grassroots movement. Dwo's normally only
Speaker 1: in retail stores where we shoot people at the knee
Speaker 1: caps to make an example of them.
Speaker 3: Steel.
Speaker 1: Yes, they steel. But this kid a seventeen year old. Sorry,
Speaker 1: that's a young man to me. Yeah, we don't need this.
Speaker 1: We're taking care of you too, Junior. You're gonna be
Speaker 1: a anyway.
Speaker 3: He's a punk. He's a punk, all right.
Speaker 4: If you're old enough to have a semi automatic glock, yeah,
Speaker 4: you're old enough to be tried as an adult.
Speaker 2: Amen.
