Speaker 4 (01:24):
Here.
Speaker 6 (01:24):
This is day four of this extravaganza here and still
not very many people are around so.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
We will keep you posting in so as many people around.
They're not around and here.
Speaker 6 (01:37):
Yeah, yeah, they're still roaming.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Yeah, people still on Bourbon Street, you know, maybe wrapping
it up, maybe a little bit, maybe wrapping up to
get started again.
Speaker 5 (01:49):
It's not is it? Is it twenty four hours down there?
Is it?
Speaker 4 (01:53):
I mean moving around right now?
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Yeah? Pretty yeah, about five or six. It's long enough
to rese set for the next day. That's what I
recall well, when I was in my younger days and
came to the Super Bowl here was It's it's you
can stay out late enough where you hit the reset
button and it's the next day and you just get started.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
You know a movie that hit me where I was like, oh,
it can be like that. It was Varsity Blues when
they walk out the next day. That was one of
those moments where I was like, oh, at some point,
like you got to go out to a club or
something long enough you see the next day. It's not depressing,
it's fun, but like to crash that next day.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
I got to tell you, I like, don't live in regret.
I'm not like a living regret type of guy. So
it's like when I had those moments because I definitely
did it in college a couple of times. I definitely
did it in the league a couple of times. And
that is like, like where's the food.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
Let's go find a place that's open to get food.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
I mean at that point you're in a little coffee.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
You're like, you know, get a little coffee. You go
to the steam room, sweat it on out. That was
the thing right there, when it really like when you
really had one of them, like straight blender nights, you.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
Go hit that steam room. I had.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
I had two gatorades, I had three waters and I
sit in that steamroom for like forty minutes forty five.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
Yeah, I like, sweat it out, sweat.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
It out, and then you're like you take a shower
and you feel like you're brand new. You go to meetings,
do what you need to do, and then you go
to practice. You're just talking about partying at super Bowl,
Well super Bowl, yeah, because I wasn't playing in any
of them. I mean saying super Bowl party, and I
mean it was a little bit when when I was playing,
it was a little bit more intense because I was
(04:02):
like I always enjoyed politicking when I was a player
and I used to go to the Super Bowl and
the politicking would turn into you know, exercising, and then
the exercising would turn into like calisthetics and you know,
stretching and all those different things you had to make
sure your hamstrings were loose and all that good stuff
(04:25):
talking about Yeah, man, exactly, and then it was the
next day.
Speaker 6 (04:29):
Remember, Like, we don't hear stories about players going out
anymore during Super Bowl, Like like the good old days
when Eugene Robins out Captain hooked, you know, like that
like goneer, those days not happening anymore.
Speaker 7 (04:41):
Like you don't hear anything.
Speaker 6 (04:42):
About the guys going out on the town, you know,
getting after it a little bit.
Speaker 5 (04:46):
I wonder if there's a a don't here.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
About like them playing twister anymore either, you know what
I mean. Like I'm just saying, I just I wonder
how to be flexible to play twister.
Speaker 6 (04:57):
Do you think with the camera phone era that players
are more cognizant of Man, I'm not going out, I
don't like everybody's.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
I think people are more I think because of how
the world is set up now with technology and everything,
you know, even with like the ability to rent properties.
I think people are more creative in how they they
do things, like way more discreete.
Speaker 6 (05:23):
What do you mean by rental properties?
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Why would they know like verbos or or you know,
airbnbs stuff like that, Like you don't necessarily have to.
Speaker 4 (05:31):
Be out out to have a.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Good time, Like you have your own spaces and you
can go there and those are like you're it feels
like safe places to be, you know.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
I would also say players are better educated too, and
just the effects of all that and how it impacts
your ability to perform. And I'm not saying that like
you obviously weren't aware of it to some degree when
you played, but now looking at how damaging it can be.
Like these guys have grown up and kind of lived
in that era of having a camera phone, everything being documented.
Speaker 7 (06:04):
So knowing that it's hard to do things like that
even if you wanted to.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
And then on top of that, they're much more in
tune with like their bodies and taking care of it.
Get rest.
Speaker 7 (06:13):
I mean, it's they're different, they're different cats.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
I mean, I was still at the tail end of
an era where like I remember as a rookie in
the NFL, like part of one of our hazing was
we had some vets knock on your door and your
ass was getting up. And they had this suite where
it was filled with cases of beer and like go
get the rest of the rookies. You gotta go find
(06:36):
a way of sneaking, like it was pastor if you
go get the rookies. And we were sitting there just
like pounding some beers. We had to sneak out go
get Taco bell. They gave us bro They gave us
two hundred dollars to go get taco bell, which if
I mean, this is back in two thousand and seven,
so imagine how much food we were able to get.
(06:56):
They're like, don't don't bring me back any change. So
we had this entire room full of stinky taco bell
camp and training camp and like the whole thing was
like you had to go out and perform the next day.
Dudes were thrown up, Guys retired. It was there was
some other stuff they're making dudes got dues. It was
we had to clean up the room to make sure
(07:17):
they didn't know, which I think we just paid someone
some cash to like come take care of at the hotel.
But it was that was it was just a different era, like,
that's how those guys were there.
Speaker 7 (07:26):
It was like a rite of passage.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
It's not like that anymore.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
We were freaks in my era, that's all I know,
straight freaks. That's what stretching was, and the calasthetics and
all that stuff.
Speaker 7 (07:37):
You know, we were freaks. Group activities, I mean, group bonding. Man.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
You know, you gotta get out, you gotta get out there.
You know, you got to get in the mix.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
I get it.
Speaker 4 (07:50):
You just got to get in the mix. Yeah, there
you go.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
So so camera phones would not have worked in my
my my day and age when the work.
Speaker 7 (08:02):
Well speaking, could I read through our notes?
Speaker 4 (08:04):
Yes, yes, let's read through our notes.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Eighteen games, it's gonna happen. We know that Trump effect?
Speaker 4 (08:10):
What was what?
Speaker 6 (08:14):
I didn't put anything about a Trump effect?
Speaker 2 (08:16):
I don't know commented on. That's the thing is, I
don't even know what it means.
Speaker 8 (08:26):
Well, we talked about the uh, you know, he's going
to be attending the game and what that means for
the game. First act, first sitting president to attend the
Super Bowl?
Speaker 7 (08:34):
Is that true?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Though? Someone actually tried to combat that that Hi, Jamie,
someone tried to combat that that He's not there's been
other presents to attend the game or something.
Speaker 8 (08:45):
Have we check this, well, I know there's always usually
been a halftime interview, and Biden didn't do the halftime interview.
So Trump has brought that back. Whether or not the attendance,
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
I'm not sure.
Speaker 8 (08:58):
I'm sure they've been in the city. Maybe they weren't
at the game. There was also another bullet point on
Trump was him banning men participating in female sports.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
Oh dangle, hmmm, that's interesting.
Speaker 6 (09:12):
He needed to ban that.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
Right, that's interesting.
Speaker 5 (09:18):
You know, that was the thing.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
I've got three daughters and two sons, and I would
not be advocating for my sons playing the same leag
as my daughters. I know that much. So I mean,
maybe that sounds controversial people, I'm just saying I've.
Speaker 6 (09:32):
Got I'm telling you right now, man, there's going to
be I'm not on both sides of that one.
Speaker 5 (09:38):
There's going to be a point.
Speaker 6 (09:39):
Where people look back at this boy and yeah, yeah,
I do.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Not want any boys being able to playing in the
girls sports.
Speaker 6 (09:45):
There's going to be any where we look back at
certain moments over the past five six.
Speaker 9 (09:49):
Years and just go, wait, what what that's like that
was the thing, Like that was okay, Like you like
you were okay with that, Like that was good, sir.
Speaker 4 (10:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (10:02):
Now, speaking of cameras, we do have something. Let me
make sure I've got the details of this correct, right,
this right.
Speaker 5 (10:11):
Sony Hawk guys.
Speaker 6 (10:13):
Skele a track system, okay, is a camera system that
monitors the two dozen skeletal points on a player's body.
Speaker 5 (10:23):
And it will be tested during the Super Bowl.
Speaker 6 (10:26):
And what's it for. You've got chips in the football.
It's to help track the ball and to try and
track where the ball is when a player is down.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
Oh so, so there won't be any like miss first
downs or anything like that.
Speaker 6 (10:38):
They're gonna, well, they're gonna test it out. They'll still
use the chain gang and still kind of go through
the standard operating procedures for the Super Bowl, but they're
testing this out in the background. And I just feel
like they've been testing this out for a long time.
Speaker 7 (10:52):
Yeah, and first time isn't that? Like why what preseasons for?
Speaker 5 (10:55):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (10:55):
Correct?
Speaker 2 (10:55):
I mean, like, like I know, we're diminishing preseason now
when socially the eighteen games will probably go down to
what two instead of three games? But is that the
point test things out or have these other leagues that
are testing it out in real time like the UFL.
I mean, there's a lot of different things they were
doing to test it out.
Speaker 6 (11:11):
Why can't they just figure this out?
Speaker 4 (11:14):
What what is.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Elon Musk is sending rockets in the space with people
back with people with people like we can't figure out
how to figure where the ball is.
Speaker 6 (11:23):
I saw something at the fan experience yesterday I've never
seen before in my life. Would you say, when you
go to check out, you don't even take your items
out of the bag. You set the entire bag in
a box and they scanned every single individual and it
knows how that when we come in. What were you
doing at the fantas? I was getting my son and
(11:44):
my wife's.
Speaker 7 (11:45):
Father of the father of deer.
Speaker 6 (11:47):
That's correct. What'd you get Jonas? I'm not giving away
that surprise. They're listening right now. Shrimp Taco, No there there,
iHeartRadio Works in Jalisco.
Speaker 4 (11:56):
You didn't there.
Speaker 6 (11:57):
You didn't bring them back a strom Taco? No, No,
that did not make it would have went well. No,
they get enough of Uh, it's a secret. It's a
home game for them. When it comes to taco.
Speaker 4 (12:07):
Are you said this is.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
The best shrimp sock?
Speaker 7 (12:09):
If your in laws found out about that all I hope, I.
Speaker 5 (12:11):
Hope they're hearing this better than any taco they've ever made.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Wow, I'm still trying to understand, Like you do know
that those are the scanners we go through when we
come in to do.
Speaker 6 (12:24):
But no, but you pull you take your badge and
you put it up against her and it scans it.
You go to a grocery store, you scan your item,
nothing was taken out of the bag, you leave, You
set the entire bag, the bags it's a.
Speaker 7 (12:37):
Dark under right now. That's like an X ray scanner.
Speaker 4 (12:41):
This is so you just walked through.
Speaker 6 (12:44):
They've got a camera that can see through your bag
and it marks your item right away, knows the price
of each individual item and wrings it up right away
without taking it out of a bag. And it's not
a sea through bat.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
Does all right, So we're getting to a day and
age we're talking about how the technology can improve the game.
Speaker 4 (13:01):
Does it ever get to a point.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
Where it's a tad bit scary to know that the
technology is where where it's at. I mean, isn't some
of this stuff supposed to be left. Like, I know,
people the.
Speaker 7 (13:15):
Thoughts that, like they talk to them, the robots talks back.
Speaker 6 (13:17):
We're not that far you got You've got UFOs flying
out of the water.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
All I'm saying, Oh Jesus, all I'm saying is it's
like sports sports. There's supposed to be an element of
human era, right, Like there should be mistakes that are
made based off of you know, is that how you judgment?
Speaker 7 (13:39):
I do so you don't care that, Like.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
I feel like it's a It's a part of the game.
It's all mistakes have always been a part of the game.
Speaker 7 (13:50):
I feel like, you've never lost a game then with
a bad call?
Speaker 2 (13:53):
No, I have, I have.
Speaker 6 (13:54):
I don't want technology in the entire game, but if
it can help in critical moments, why would you.
Speaker 4 (13:59):
Not use it?
Speaker 1 (14:01):
I just I just feel like, does there ever get
to a point of where technology, the amount of technology
alters the experience of the game, you know, I just
I wonder that. Man, It's a good question, Like you know,
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
You need to be able to work it in seamlessly
without the viewer and the players people participating in knowing.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
I like seeing the chain game I like to for
what it's worth for the people that always are complaining
about the calls. You want to know the truth about that.
You're a complainer. You're a complainer. So I don't care
if you get it right with technology or you don't,
you're going to complain. So to me, it's like coming
(14:48):
from an old school perspective and state of mind, Like
it's sports are supposed to be simple. They've they've always
have supposed to have been simple. Well, something you can
do with your family member out front, something you could
do with your you know, your dad, or your friend
across the street or whatever it may be. Line up,
(15:10):
this car rates from this car to that car.
Speaker 4 (15:12):
Who won?
Speaker 7 (15:13):
Hey, who knows? You know what I mean, it was
a close one.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
It's like to me, at some point, doesn't technology and
being so so so far ahead, doesn't it possibly take
away what sports really really has truly represented, like the
purity of our culture, Like we brought up our president
and you know, bringing up scanners and all that stuff.
(15:39):
I just at some point, isn't sports supposed to be
the getaway, the escape from all of is bs that
we deal with in so many other ways. Like again,
if you're going to complain. You're going to complain. I
don't care if you get it perfectly correct because of
technology or not. Your want to have something that complain about,
(16:01):
because that's who you are.
Speaker 6 (16:04):
The robot MP thing. People like want robot on some baseball.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
And then there's going to end up being robot players
you can't, and there's going to be robot coaches, and
then all it's going to be is programmers.
Speaker 7 (16:15):
I'm with you in what it is. Program it out,
see how it plays.
Speaker 6 (16:19):
Like, and assist every now and then to get a
call right. If technology can help that, that's fine. The
spot the fourth down spot in the Bills Chiefs game
in which it went the other way and it looked
pretty obvious at least to one official and people watching
that it was a first down. If there's a way
that we can get that call right, I'm all for it.
I just don't want it taking over everything. I don't
(16:39):
want robot empires. I like umpires. You've got to embrace
an element root well, because.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
You're not gonna have an umpire behind plate.
Speaker 7 (16:47):
You gonna have a camera that just looks.
Speaker 6 (16:49):
In and I don't want. Yeah, I'm not into that, Okay.
I need a human being back there.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
There is something about the style in which an umpire
I don't.
Speaker 5 (17:00):
Like, how would you do it?
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Hey? You know you know who does an unbelievable umpire
is Urban Meyer. I'm telling you, man, Coach Meyer could
have been a hell of an umpire. He like, I've
gone through, like the different gestures stuff because people don't
realize he played baseball. He played baseball in college. I
got drafted. He got drafted. He was a legit baseball player,
and then he transitioned to coaching football.
Speaker 7 (17:23):
But he's the.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
Best when he does his little maneurisms and how he'd
punch guys out. But I would miss that, Like there's
something about a play at the plate, the.
Speaker 6 (17:33):
Reaction, you know, the way they do it, sometimes almost
their own, like the lazy ass umpire that goes like
this on a strike three.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
See Actually, no, I would argue that. I like the
guys who almost do nothing, where they sit back there
and they're.
Speaker 7 (17:46):
Like like that's a ball that.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
I like all the personalities with this, So I understand
there's been things we'd miss.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
I used to when I was excited to have the
little joint, the black thing in your hand and I'm
not talking you know, I'm talking about the thing, the
thing that where you put the numbers on it. You
ken't count with the calculator. No, when you you know,
stop watching the count the pitch counter. Yeah, they had
(18:17):
the like the uh the empire be sitting.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
There, yeah yeah, well yeah, yeah, he's trying to figure
out what the count is.
Speaker 4 (18:24):
Right.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
I used to want imp a game just so I
could have that joint l a you know, growing up,
you know, I didn't play baseball very long, but anyway,
I just I just think that at some point you
gotta look at sports and say play the game. Like
we came to the conclusion the other day when we
were talking to Gerald McCoy. If you have all these
(18:47):
issues with the touch push, figure out how to stop
them on non push touch push downs. Don't allow them
to get to a point or where they can use
the touch push.
Speaker 4 (18:58):
That's how you stop the touch push.
Speaker 6 (19:00):
Two pros and a cup of Joe Fox Sports Radio,
LeVar Arrington, Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox with you here. So
coming up next, somebody's already making an impact. It didn't
take long, already making an impact in the world of football.
Speaker 5 (19:11):
We will tell you who that is right here on FSR.
Speaker 10 (19:15):
Be sure to catch live editions of Two Pros and
a Cup of Joe with Brady Quinn, LeVar Arrington and
Jonas Knox weekdays at six am Eastern three am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Flitly, it's like it's the weirdest thing when someone's like, wait,
what happened? No way did it? Why are you surprised
by this?
Speaker 6 (19:42):
It is a well, it's Two Pros and a Cup
of Joe here on Fox Sports Radio. The circus tent
is up and we are all performing in it.
Speaker 5 (19:52):
He just.
Speaker 6 (19:55):
You know, a little bit of a malfunction during the break.
You know that happens to us. All right, So coming
up a little over fifteen minutes from now, we are
going to have the next installment of the Prop Bet Monster.
That'll be the look ahead to the Super Bowl. And
let's say we got to get creative with some of
these prop bets.
Speaker 7 (20:16):
All right.
Speaker 6 (20:16):
I feel like we're doing the same candy ass props
are doing every single year. Taylor Swift, how many times
did they show? I gave you some good ones at
dogs in commercials?
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (20:26):
Roughing the passers on my homes left cigarettes. He's gonna smoke.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
How many times will we fall before we leave?
Speaker 7 (20:34):
Damn?
Speaker 8 (20:36):
Number of times they say, year, you've got a carton
of cigarettes? I do give you some generical Johnny, I
hid in some good ones.
Speaker 4 (20:44):
All right?
Speaker 6 (20:44):
So Bill Belichick, is he out flipping recruits? Is that
what he's doing?
Speaker 1 (20:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (20:49):
Man, Well what was interesting is I think a lot
of people have forgotten this, you know, like yesterday was
the national signings. Yeah, but because of the early sign
the second one, yeah, well exactly, because of the early
signing period.
Speaker 7 (21:02):
Now it's really become an afterthought.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
And then obviously two with the Super Bowl being pushed
back another week, this was usually a week that was
kind of devoted a little bit to that where it
was like the start for a lot of the future
Super Bowl players deciding where they want to go to college.
And that's kind of no more. But Bill belichigman, if
anyone's questioning if he's got the ability to flip or
recruit or connect with eighteen to twenty four year olds,
(21:29):
he does. Because he flipped a couple of a couple
of d tackles he flipped on signing day.
Speaker 5 (21:35):
All right, I got a question for you guys.
Speaker 6 (21:37):
So we kind of had a similar discussion when it
came to Dion Sanders, and the thought was, is he
going to be able to recruit because maybe the parents
of the kids know who Dion is? But does this
generate if you are the kids or the parents know
who Dion? Well? No, But what I'm saying is, if
you are a kid and say you're a three star
(21:59):
or somebody like that, how would you turn down the
opportunity to play for and help be developed by the greatest.
Speaker 4 (22:10):
To ever do it.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
I think the sales pitch itself in a lot of
ways plays a major part in this as well, because
sometimes like the person it's and it's I guess itself
is not as enticing, you know, because young kids are
into what they're into and you just generally don't know
(22:32):
where they're at.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
They're just different.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
So but what they do know is what they know,
So they know who Tom Brady is. They know about
certain things that are just you know, very simple, low
hanging fruits. So to speak for these kids, I think
Bill Belichick having the ability to boast who he's coached
(22:56):
is where people know who Lawrence Taylor is still young guys. Know,
there's certain few guys that people just know who they are,
and Bill Belichick has the resume of being able to
leverage all those names. And when you say do you
want to win? Well, what do you mean do you
want to win? Well, let me let me explain to you.
(23:18):
If we're talking about winning, I am the ultimate winner.
And if that's not, let me tell you something that
should always be good enough, That should always be good
enough to get families to really really consider, is this
the place that that I should go? So, you know,
(23:39):
give him a give him a lot of credit for
getting it started, showing that he can recruit. But I
think this is just the beginning of it because what's
going to happen is he's going to structure UNC as
a professional as a professional football organization, and.
Speaker 4 (23:57):
That is going to be the lead off.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
The leadoff is the business structure, the infrastructure, because you
know those things have dividends connected to it and it
and it most likely pays you talking about I mean,
that's that's the number week. The recruiting point now is money.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
I mean, you used to prioritize it different, you'd probably
say for most guys back.
Speaker 7 (24:19):
Before you could get paid.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
If they weren't get paid, them to the table, they
would say, how do you get me to the NFL?
So Bill Belichick thirty years ago, maybe twenty years ago,
had arguably the greatest pitch ever. Now, granted his career
wouldn't have been where it's at now, but with that
era of players, if you will, because of how times
have changed with an il. But now everyone wants to
know how much am I getting paid? And that's that's
(24:41):
the first question, and it goes from there. It's no
different than it's a job. Right.
Speaker 7 (24:46):
How many times you see people go interview for a job.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
And well, how much am I getting paid for this job? Right?
Speaker 7 (24:50):
And you start there and you kind of start working
out all the other things.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
What was my schedule look like then? For what I'm doing?
Are there benefits? Are there not?
Speaker 7 (24:57):
Blah blah blah? Do have to We were so many
pieces of flair, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
I mean, listen, you know, for example, just my point
like he's he's gonna be able to recruit because of
what you're discussing. But it still comes down to money
for a lot of these guys because they see everyone
cashing in and even when he gets them like, Okay,
so he flipped a couple of guys, they have a
good year. They're gonna come back to him and say, hey, man,
(25:23):
like or if not. I got schools hitting me up
like Penn State's hit me up. You know they want
to bring me in. James Franklin is gonna give me
a bag. That's just the reality of where college.
Speaker 7 (25:35):
Football is at now.
Speaker 6 (25:37):
The more it's getting closer to being a reality, because
I think, just in the back of my mind, I
always thought, well, now I'll believe it when he sees it,
he'll be back in the NFL.
Speaker 5 (25:45):
Now that we're here, I'm.
Speaker 6 (25:47):
More excited to see how this works at North Carolina
than I would have been to see if he took
over a Falcons or a Jaguars or a like. It's
it's gonna be fascinating to see him try.
Speaker 1 (25:58):
This on for size student race, it's the race to
structure a college program to be a professional a professional organization.
Speaker 4 (26:08):
It's the race. The race is on.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
If you had to pick a conference though, to go
in and try to infiltrate, I mean, Dion picked the
Big Twelve.
Speaker 7 (26:15):
It couldn't have been better timing.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
I mean as far as the second year being how
the leagues that conference has adjusted.
Speaker 7 (26:22):
I mean, hell, they still had a shot towards the
end and the ACC.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
I mean, if you think about SMU, if SMU could
do it, you could do it at UNC. Sure, you know,
Miami's they got to figure out. You know, they got
Carson backed now quarterback. But like Miami's gonna competitive. There's
there's some teams that are the bettings, you know, favorites.
But I look at that and say, well, like why not,
Like you can have a team that's highly competitive competes
in there.
Speaker 7 (26:44):
I mean Clemson should be good too, but.
Speaker 6 (26:47):
Dabo and him, you know, gonna be a red ass
off at some point.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
Those guys imagine that pitch, like, oh, you gotta pick
between Dabo who's had some you know success at the
college level, but Bill Belichick with cash.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Again, I just think the structure of it, like they're
talking about hiring gms, like you saw Stanford is bringing.
Speaker 2 (27:09):
They cut off Hoodie holding the bag. Oh like, hey
Bill's coming.
Speaker 7 (27:16):
You know what I'm saying, Is it Louis?
Speaker 6 (27:17):
Does he bring Louis? Does Belchick bring Louie?
Speaker 4 (27:20):
Or is it? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (27:21):
I don't know, man, I heard it's a hard hard
had lunch bill.
Speaker 7 (27:25):
That's a good call. Like that's he stores the cash.
Speaker 4 (27:27):
Good call.
Speaker 10 (27:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (27:29):
One of those Stanley thermoses too.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
Well, those explode. There's lawsuits with that. I don't know
about really. Yeah, there's there's some things going on the.
Speaker 6 (27:35):
Old school Stanley thermos.
Speaker 2 (27:37):
Yeah you're saying old school, but that's that's been around
for a minute now, like the big one.
Speaker 7 (27:41):
All the moms are getting thrown in their cup holders.
Some of those have been a.
Speaker 6 (27:45):
Road So that's why I've always been a bigger fan
of like the Travis Matthew yetis. And speaking of Travis Matthew,
it's a pail design for confidence and comfort no matter
where the day takes you, from performance driven styles to
everyday essentials for men and women. Travis Matthew. As you
covered this is Travis Matthew dot com and received twenty
percent off your first order when you sign up for email.
Speaker 7 (28:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (28:06):
Ron Ribert at cal As well too, he's going.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
I know it's his alma mater, but he interviewed for
a head coaching position this offseason in the NFL.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
Yeah, and now he's a couple of teams.
Speaker 7 (28:16):
Yeah, now he's a general telling you.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
That is it's going to become the norm to go
to go to college. It's going to become it's going
to becomege general manager, general manager. A general manager.
Speaker 6 (28:33):
Will outlast a hey coach.
Speaker 7 (28:36):
Okay, this is actually what I was going to bring
him next.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
Is one of the issues that you're seeing right now
at the collegiate level is they're trying to figure out
the organizational structure, correct, because correct, it's not the NFL,
and you have this academic component, which is what honestly
complicates things. So if you think about the ownership structure,
you have your owner, then you start to kind of
(28:58):
deviate from there.
Speaker 7 (28:59):
However you create it, whether.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
It's a president of football operations or something, or a
general manager and the head coach. Right, but you start
to all of a sudden start to see this divide
where you're delegating different tasks. Right, for the ownership of
an NFL franchise, the problem with college football teams is
you have the president that largely is gonna be responsible
for anything happens on your watch. Then you've got an
athletic director, but then you've got like a board of regents.
(29:23):
At times that ultimately has to vote on things, or
a board of trustees that makes decisions. And then you've
got a head coach who might be making more than
all of them. I mean, he could be the highest
paid state employee. And so the power struggled within all
of that, and so you've got this general manager position
that's popped up that in most cases it's it's the
(29:43):
title of general manager. Like Notre Dame just had Chad Bodie.
We'll have to go to Southern cal Right, that dude's
not a general manager. Here's what the hell he's doing.
You're you're athletic director. No, Jen Cohen at Southern Cow
is legitimately the actual acting position of what a general
manager would be doing at the college level. But at
(30:03):
you know, as far as for football and all that,
as far as her responsibility is what she's overseeing, like
she has the power and the ability to hire and
fire and all that. Like this general manager tag people
throw out for these college teams, it's like they're looking
at the scouting component of it. They're looking at the
roster construction component of it, or negotiating now maybe the
revshare and the NIL deals, but they'd ultimately don't have
(30:25):
the power like the ad can fire them.
Speaker 6 (30:27):
You know, say you don't hear coach for them, You
don't hear any of this with college basketball like it
there is such, it's there.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
It's there.
Speaker 7 (30:35):
But the biggest difference is they're one and done.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
So they get some of these kids and they're there
for a minute, they're gone, like they're not leveraging.
Speaker 7 (30:41):
Hey, some of these kids will leverage it and try
to go somewhere else. I'll be honest.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
They that good, they go pro.
Speaker 6 (30:46):
I view college football as a completely separate entity from
college basketball.
Speaker 5 (30:51):
I think college football is a league.
Speaker 6 (30:52):
I think it's its own league.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
At this point.
Speaker 7 (30:54):
It should be like that would solve everything.
Speaker 2 (30:57):
If you had football breakoff from all universities and have
some deal where they license back the right to use
the logo and all the other stuff that trademark, all
this stuff that goes along with it, and you looked
at that model, that would be more fruitful for everyone involved.
You wouldn't have issues with Title nine like they're going
to have with this house settlement and how they're going
to split up the revenue share, because that's going to
(31:18):
be challenged in court. There's so many issues that I
don't think people understand that because football is still attached
to NCAA or even just you know, this academic structure.
There's there's issues in every way you look at it
with where we're moving right now.
Speaker 6 (31:33):
Got Belichick gonna take over college football? Can't wait for
about a year and then he goes back to the pros.
Speaker 4 (31:39):
Probably, I don't think so, man.
Speaker 5 (31:40):
I think he's there for good.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
There's no reason to leave. The amount of control that
that man is going to be able to have where
he's at will be like nothing he's ever had before.
Like who's going to come yeah, yeah, Like the school
(32:04):
president is going to worry about academics, the school board
is going to worry about the performance of all the
things academics, dot to dota metrics. But as it applies
to sports, they're going to want to have a coach
that's going to win, and the athletic director is generally
(32:24):
the person that is lockstep with.
Speaker 4 (32:27):
That's like your GM.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
But even though they're creating general managers now, but your GM,
you're ad like, I don't want to say they work
for the football coach, but.
Speaker 4 (32:41):
They kind of do.
Speaker 7 (32:42):
They kind of do.
Speaker 2 (32:43):
Like that's why I go back to who's getting paid more,
because the reality is if you're getting paid more, you're
ultimately the one that has the powers, Like, well, we're
paying this guy this is much for a reason, Right.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
They're the most powerful. They're the most powerful, dude. It's
like on this show, LeVar makes the most. Yeah, so dude,
that would be thirty dollars. Damn, that's a thirty Yeah.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
You hit you hit it three.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
Also, you're you're a repeat offender, crazy repeat of and
you're a horrible wingman.
Speaker 4 (33:15):
So my horrible man.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
I will say this. You and Lee I think are
not a good combination based on what's happening.
Speaker 6 (33:22):
I got news for If it was for me, Lee
would have been in Zed's basement last night.
Speaker 4 (33:26):
