Pay Yeah, we got Petro's coming.
Speaker 4 (01:19):
Up, man, Yeah, right now, Eliah, is Petro still on vacation?
Is he joining us from vacation or is he back?
I believe he's back today. Okay, good? So I know
he joined us. He was in the desert or something
one time, and uh, I think we had a fill
in producer and the film producer was unaware that Petros
was not going to be joining us, and Petro's had
a little bit of a red ass having to join us,
(01:41):
soone to make sure he wasn't on vacation.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
You know, he should be in a good mood though.
He's coming off vacation, right, yeah, you.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
Would think so. I mean, he's got a lot of
uh you got a lot of college football games is
going to be calling soon. You know, all of that
stuff's gearing up and kicking off pretty quick here. And
I believe we are. Yeah, it's a twenty We are
a month away from week quote unquote zero in college football,
how about that one month away? Do you think any
(02:10):
of those Do you think any of those teams are
truly ready to kick off a month from now? Or
is it like all right, yeah, this is happening, We're
just gonna go with it. It feels like it comes
up pretty quick, like they're truly ready to rock, Like
for example, Notre Dames.
Speaker 5 (02:25):
You don't have to go through a training camp, so
you would think that it would come up quick, but
the guys that have to go through them training camps,
it doesn't come quick enough.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
August twenty six technically August twenty sixth so less than
a month away. Just feels like, you know, we're just
gonna all of a sudden roll out and games are
going to start counting, and you know, like for example,
Navy Notre Dame. I don't know if you guys are
aware this. They're going to be playing over in Ireland,
so you've got that whole matchup, so with travel time
to get out there.
Speaker 6 (02:55):
How you guys feel about that?
Speaker 4 (02:57):
Huh?
Speaker 2 (02:57):
I mean, I'm excited. You guys know my wheelhouse.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
I'd feel better. You are an under Dame fan.
Speaker 6 (03:06):
I got what I've always been.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
I got money on Navy.
Speaker 6 (03:11):
Yeah, but wow, hey, you.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Know it's not gonna be on the field at that game, Jonas.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
I'm just saying, you know, like that, look, I mean,
I could be convinced, I could be talked into it otherwise.
I mean, but you know that's all right. Just see
the way. See the way stuff works.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
A lot of people probably actually want if you're out
there and you're listening in your Notre Dame fan, you
probably want Jonas to bet it because.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
He's so bad he usually loses his bets. He's a
good sign.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
It's a new season, all right, and that brings that
brings hope. You know. There's also, by the way, a
little bit of hope in Carolina where it's official Bryce
Young is your QB one that according to Frank Reich,
So I know everybody, everybody assumed Andy Dalton was going
to beat him out for the job. But Bryce Young
is going to be your starting quarterback.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
For the Carolina someone Andy Dalton hall of famer?
Speaker 4 (04:02):
Yeah, who was that again? God wide receiver wide receiver
for the Carolina Panthers called him a Hall of famer. Yeah,
that didn't land well with a lot of people. Reach
Although he said Andy Daltons had a really.
Speaker 6 (04:19):
Hall of Fame though.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
Well, you know, he's had.
Speaker 6 (04:23):
A really hot mouse.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
Come on, says Miles Sanders, running back, who's keeping tracked?
I agree, who is keeping?
Speaker 5 (04:31):
Maybe he was just being sarcastic because of how running
backs are being treated. He was maybe he was taking
a shot at him.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
He was saying, like Hall of Fame type player, Oh
my gosh. I mean, look, Cincinnati was a playoff team
a lot of years in a row with Andy Dalton
as a quarterback. Now, they didn't win any games in
the playoffs, but they were He's had a really good
career Andy Dalton has, and so you know he he's
in Carolina now and he's got a mentor, the young
(05:02):
Bryce Young and maybe.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Frank great spot. He really is.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
Frank Reich might actually win Week one of an NFL
season for once, because he's never won Week one of
a year before in his entire coaching career. So all
those years in Indianapolis never won Week one. And they
are currently a three point underdog at the Atlanta Falcons
are the Carolina Panthers with devil.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
I'll take those three points.
Speaker 5 (05:25):
I agree, Yeah, I mean, I'll say that you guys
got them winning it, don't you.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
I would.
Speaker 6 (05:31):
I would.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
It's it's tough to win on the road, but I'll
take thee.
Speaker 5 (05:34):
I'm saying, you got them, you got them. You guys
have Carolina winning that division.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
No Saints, Saints.
Speaker 4 (05:43):
Okay, I haven't made my final pick yet.
Speaker 6 (05:46):
Yeah, I made Georgia and I still crunching the numbers.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
I'm crunching the numbers. You guys heard me earlier the Bills, uh,
And I know Brady loved me pointing this out. The
Bills climbing up my power rankings in the AFC, So
maybe the Carolina Panthers will be climbing up my.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Can you print those off for me again so I
can use it as toilet paper?
Speaker 2 (06:03):
I mean, is that possible?
Speaker 4 (06:04):
Again? This is this is the type of negative energy
that we don't need on the show. I don't understand.
I don't know why I don't.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
Really have any use of your power rankings outside of
toilet paper.
Speaker 4 (06:17):
Okay, And again, you know, depending on the type of.
Speaker 6 (06:20):
People deliver those picks to the corn fairies.
Speaker 4 (06:23):
Yeah, maybe if you're wondering what that reference is, just
make sure to listen to the podcast. That'll be posted
up after we go off the air, so you understand
why corn fairy made its way to this program, along
with how much weed Willie Nelson smokes. But that is
the latest on the quarterback with the Carolina Panthers. Bryce
(06:47):
Young is going to be their QB one. Now. We
also opened up the show talking about Jim Irsay. Brady
Quinn is actually in Indianapolis. I don't know if him
and Jim Mersey are drinking together, but Jim Irsay may
have you know, done a keg stand or two and
hopped on Twitter and decided to chime in on the
running back position and said the following NFL running back situation.
(07:08):
We have negotiated a CBA that took years of effort
and hard work and compromise and good faith by both sides.
To say now that a specific player category wants another
negotiation after the fact is inappropriate. Some agents are selling
quote unquote bad faith Jonathan Taylor, who will be up
for a contract very very soon and is a very
good running back for Jim Mersey's Indianapolis Colts. Jonathan Taylor's
(07:32):
agent quote retweeted or quote re exed, whatever they're calling
it now, Jim mersay and said bad faith is not
paying your top offensive player. So wow, feels like we
are off and running with the what's reming?
Speaker 5 (07:46):
Both are both are true, though I know who's talking
about one doesn't One doesn't have to be false, you know,
for the other to be true. They're both true statements.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
That is a good point.
Speaker 6 (07:58):
So how does that work? How does that work?
Speaker 4 (08:01):
If we are going to say best offensive player, I
think Quentin Nelson probably would be stacked a little higher
than Jonathan Taylor. Yeah, to Brady's point.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
You think just yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
I that it's I mean debatable as far as their
career so far. But he you know, running back position
is one that is Look, it's taking a hit right now.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
I mean it's kind of funny that we bring.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Up a guard too, because if you look at the
franchise tag, I mean, you've got on average, probably you know,
guys making six million more five million more per year, right,
maybe ten ten million more in some cases that play guard.
So it goes to show you where teams are investing
their money. They're investing everywhere else outside of the running
(08:47):
back position, because no one's investing in.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
The running game and that's just the reality of it.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
Wow, it's unfortunate.
Speaker 5 (08:55):
Well, I think the conversation at this point really is
it like like I hate, I don't hate to say.
Speaker 6 (09:04):
It, it is what it is.
Speaker 5 (09:05):
Like ersay said, that's that's what was negotiated and and
that's they have to deal with this situation the best
way that they can. But I honestly believe, I honestly
believe that making the type of money and I know
I might not this might not sound popular, but making
(09:28):
the type of money that you're making in the league,
at some point, just make your money and save your money,
because it's going to be enough money, like more than
enough money for you to have the lifestyle that you
want to have and lead a happy, productive life knowing
(09:49):
that you had a gig, you know, out of high
school or out of college that allotted you the opportunity
to have economic stability and economic freedom in your life.
Like to me, sometimes I think that gets a little
lost in all of this. And I understand guys want
to get the whole idea of what fear compensation is.
(10:13):
But if that's the market that's being set and that's
where it's at, tight ends have had to go through it.
Now it's coming back around for tight ends, but they
still don't get paid, like how white receivers get paid. Fullbacks, hell,
they're not even around anymore. It's like what two or
three fullbacks left in the NFL?
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Could you make the case var that like anyone in
regards like revolving around the run game, maybe the exception
of lineman because they obviously and pass protection have to
protect back all that. Yeah, but if you're saying, like
even off the ball linebackers, they're not being paid as much.
You know, they're being transitioned to you know, safeties who
(10:55):
can cover or kind of hybrid players in that respect,
I mean pretty much anything surrounding the run games, stopping
to run.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
That's just they're not compensated as well.
Speaker 5 (11:05):
Like I said, Q, when we were playing, I can't
think of too many, if any programs where you were
here coming out of them pass first. I think the
whole concept and the whole theory behind football was run
the ball, pass the ball, run first, pass the ball.
(11:27):
Like even if you were a pass heavy team, you're
still run the ball. Established a run, established a run
because the run can help you and your passing game.
But that's not even that's not even a conversation anymore.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Right, analytics, because a lot of the analytics guys have
basically looked at the stats and you don't have to
have an effective running game for the defense to bite
up on a play action pass fig or a run
action pass fake like that's that's what's that's what's happened.
It's got to the point where you know, defensive players
(12:05):
are looking at the situation. You know they're not going
to think about, oh, remember when he ripped off like
the last drive, you know, three different runs for six
plus yards right like, you see ball stuck out there,
you're going you're going to fill, or you see action
by the offensive line of pulling guards them else you're
going to fill.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Like everything's telling you it's run until it's not.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
And that's where I think, you know, more and more
people who have looked at the data said, we don't
even have to be able to run the football effectively.
We just have to run it enough to keep a
defense balanced for the most part, because it's still about
the it's still about the passing game.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
And then Saquon Barkley's teammate Andrew Thomas gets a five
year one hundred and seventeen point five million dollar extension
with sixty seven million guaranteed. So he's he's high atop
the list of top paid offensive tackles. And the day
before Saquon Barkley signed, you know, an eleven million dollars
one year deal for all intents and purposes.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
Let's see, And now I understand. I kept asking why
did he what what was this all about? And I
know you're you're pointing out the obvious with with the
contract and the value, but I get now why they
did what they did. So the whole you're not doing
another year of you're not doing another year of a
(13:25):
franchise tag. This is like more or less play this
year out you get, you get credit for this year
on your contract and and he would become.
Speaker 6 (13:34):
A free agent all the way next year, right.
Speaker 4 (13:37):
Much so that will work unless they tag him again.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Then he would get twelve which it's.
Speaker 5 (13:43):
Not the worst thing that but why but why tag them?
But what they tag them again? If they already tagged
him this year and gave him a contract that doesn't
really doesn't it kind of undo in a way the
the tag, like by giving him a contract that's bigger
(14:04):
larger than the tag. Well then I'm still trying to
understand it. Then I'm still yeah, why.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Because they incentivized him.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Right, they gave him two million up front, which he
wasn't gonna get, right, he wouldn't get the monies that
were owed to him money the franchise tag until he
got to that first first paycheck, a game check.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
So that's the first thing. He's got immediate cash up front, and.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
Then the rest of the moneies owed to him are
spread out over the course of the salary. And then
you've got on top of that, you had incentives that
that add on.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Another about a million dollars he can earn.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
So he's incentivized in a few ways, the additional capital
he can earn, but also the money he gets up front.
Speaker 5 (14:45):
See, Okay, it makes more sense. I guess now that
you explained it that way. I thought it was more
or less. Sa Quon does the deal because he can
basically become a free agent and renegotiate his deal after
this season.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Now that's what interesting is put.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
He didn't put in like a no, you know, a
no tag claws or something. I'm not sure if he
could have reworked it and done that, or maybe they tried.
The giants wouldn't take it, but look, he'll get I
mean I wouldn't take it. What he's going to make
this year, I wouldn't take it.
Speaker 6 (15:19):
Right if he has a big year, if.
Speaker 5 (15:20):
You're motivating him to have a big year and he
has a monster year or has the type of year
he had this past season, I wouldn't want to just
let him out right. I mean, while we may say
he doesn't hold value as a running back at the position,
he holds positional value twenty four.
Speaker 4 (15:42):
Million over a two year run at running back. This
running back you could do a lot worse.
Speaker 5 (15:48):
And then the thing is what I'm saying, get too
far away from that.
Speaker 6 (15:53):
Yeah it's not getting better. Yeah it's not getting better.
Speaker 5 (15:57):
So I think you got to look look at it
at its barest minimum. You're in a job where the
position is declining and regular workforces. If a position is
declining and becomes obsolete, they get rid of it and
you lose your job. So I don't, you know, make
(16:18):
your money and save your money. So I feel like
that's that's that's feasible.
Speaker 4 (16:22):

what's happening?
Speaker 6 (17:28):
Hello?
Speaker 8 (17:29):
Sorry? That about yesterday?
Speaker 4 (17:32):
No, where were we at he?
Speaker 9 (17:33):
I was in a southern California town called uh in
the north area of Ventura County called Oha.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (17:45):
Wow, Yeah. People have been to OHI before.
Speaker 9 (17:49):
Probably a lot of your listeners around the country may
not have heard of it. It's a small kind of
art slash farming community.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
Vineyards, a lot of wine vineyards over there.
Speaker 8 (18:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (18:02):
I'm not much of a wine drinker anymore. I used
to drink a lot of wine when I waited tables,
and I mean like a lot of wine.
Speaker 8 (18:09):
Like we would.
Speaker 9 (18:10):
Duzzle cheap crook table wine in the back while we
were serving. So uh, you know, wine gives me indigestion.
I'm not much of a but I drank a lot
of fancy drinks, you know, like the cocktails they have
like like on the menu with like cool names.
Speaker 4 (18:27):
I drank some of those nice.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
Oh what is the is it?
Speaker 6 (18:32):
Opah?
Speaker 8 (18:32):
What's the the Greek exclamation? Yeah? Yeah, yeah yeah?
Speaker 2 (18:39):
And what's the drink after dinner drink? What's that called?
Speaker 6 (18:42):
Oh?
Speaker 9 (18:43):
You're talking about the Greek liqueur usoo.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
That was yeah.
Speaker 9 (18:49):
Yeah, it's like it's got like a black licorice kind
of vibe.
Speaker 8 (18:55):
Yeah, all that different stuff.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Very close.
Speaker 9 (18:57):
Yeah, it's I mean you, very common in Greek households
to use uzo on the gums of teething children and
to rub it on there because it's made with some
kind of like the same stuff that they make anesthetic with,
so it has a numbing effect in the mouth and throat.
(19:19):
But Greeks also drink a brandy. There's a Greek brandy
called Metoxa that's named after a Greek prime minister who
gave a very famous one word speech in Greek history
around World War Two when Italy was trying to occupy Greece,
you know, the same way Germany occupied for me, He said.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
Auchi What does that mean?
Speaker 8 (19:44):
Ochi?
Speaker 9 (19:46):
I guess in English it would be o x i,
which is no, ki means no. And the Greek celebrate
I think it's in October. They celebrate Auchi Day, which
is the day of no. Yeah, the day you told
Italy no, you're gonna have to come and occupy us,
which they did, but we didn't just lay down like France. Well, well,
(20:11):
we did just lay down like the French. You know, look,
the French had a rough time. World War One was
rough on the French and they really weren't feeling it
when World War Two came around. And you know, I
guess we can understand to a certain degree. But I
believe you know where the word Cretan. You ever heard,
like somebody called a Cretan like you know, like like
(20:34):
you're like like you're an animal. Derogatory term, right, And
that comes from the Nazi army, I believe because Crete
was never taken. Crete was a is a Greek island.
It's the biggest Greek island and it was the longest
occupied by the evil Turkish Ottoman Empire and they used
(20:54):
to really beat up on the Greeks there. So they
were occupied for a long time and they weren't having
it when the Germans tried to come in, old ladies
and children with pitchforks and stuff, just taking it to
the paratroopers to where the Germans just called them Cretans
and gave up trying to take the island.
Speaker 4 (21:11):
How about that.
Speaker 9 (21:12):
Wow, I believe that's true. But I'm sure you have
some historic fact checkers out there.
Speaker 4 (21:17):
You know at one point in time, speaking of history,
Petros Colorado was in the Big twelve.
Speaker 8 (21:22):
Yeah, yeah, yeah that Uh.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
It's happening again. I think I think it's happening.
Speaker 9 (21:27):
The the Jenga game has finally come to its to
its abrupt ending. And I mean nobody's surprised. Is anybody surprised?
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Now?
Speaker 4 (21:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (21:39):
I mean I wasn't.
Speaker 9 (21:40):
I figured something was wrong when they sat me with
the Colorado people at the table at that Pack twelve dinner, Brady,
I was like, who the hell are.
Speaker 8 (21:50):
These guys out there? They got one foot out the door?
Speaker 2 (21:53):
Can I be honest with you. I had gotten wind
of that thing at that night.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
And and what surprises me is the messaging from the PAC
twelve where you keep hearing Clive Cooff say, you know,
the longer we wait, the better do it gets.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
How can that be the case? How could the deal
get better the longer they wait, especially if more teams
are going to move out of the conference.
Speaker 9 (22:16):
I remember twenty eighteen, I was doing the PAC twelve
championship game with you, Brady.
Speaker 8 (22:22):
Remember you did the game with Joe Davis.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
I did never forget the postgame trophy ceremony.
Speaker 8 (22:29):
Why did I do something wrong.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
No, not wrong. It's just one of the most amazing things. Afterwards,
I think at one for it, you were like.
Speaker 8 (22:37):
Ah, no, I think that was the Big twelve.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
Well that was a Big twelve.
Speaker 9 (22:41):
Yeah No, this one was like remember that game was
like six to three or something like that.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
It was really kind of a Washington, Colorado.
Speaker 9 (22:49):
Yeah, Wash No, Washington, Utah, Washington, utahka. Right, And it
doesn't really matter who played or what happened in the game.
But Brady called the game, and I was the sideline guy,
and I remember, you know, whenever you have a PAC
twelve championship or any kind of championship, sometimes there's like
a state of the State sort of address. And Larry Scott,
(23:10):
who literally him, along with the university presidents, they really
destroyed West Coast football as we know it. And the
thing that bothers me the most about the PAC twelve,
which is imminently collapsing now and we all have seen
it coming, the thing that really bothers me about it
(23:31):
is it didn't have to happen. They very could have
easily partnered with Fox or NBC or anybody that does
college football or wants to do college football ESPN, people
that know how to put TV on the air, all
that stuff. They could have partnered with any of those
people and had comparable money to the Big ten network
(23:52):
and the Big twelve and all the different people going
around right now. They could have done that, and those
deals were there to be made, and they were not made.
Speaker 8 (24:00):
They were made by a guy named Larry Scott.
Speaker 9 (24:02):
So let's go back to twenty eighteen, and everybody's like, dude,
what are we gonna do. The conference is bleeding out.
Perdues made seventy million more dollars than Oregon State or
whatever to this point on these network TV deals, and
Larry Scott's was like his message was, well, you guys,
just wait till twenty twenty three and you see what
(24:23):
we got. And it was like that was five years
ago and they were kicking the ball down the road
to twenty twenty three. Well the longer you wait, My point,
Brady is, look what happened. They were waiting and waiting
and waiting, and suddenly they're hot LA girlfriends left for
(24:45):
a banana nosed idiot guy in the Midwest. You know,
I mean all that time, you know that you were like, well,
wait till twenty twenty three comes around, everything's going to change.
Then you lost the two things that made the conference
viable USC and UC, so they've been poorly managed from
the get go. I don't know what we would we
expect from Kleioff cough. I'm not impressed at anything he
(25:08):
says or does, but it's almost like he has an
absolutely impossible job at this point, because there's rumors that
Oregon's going now to the Big twelve of all places,
and then the Big Ten is going to scoop up
whoever they want, if they want them, and then everybody
else is going to be absorbed by some kind of
mountain west looking West coast thing.
Speaker 8 (25:29):
I feel bad about it.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
Can we go back to the Big twelve though, and
go back through that? Ah?
Speaker 8 (25:37):
That was.
Speaker 9 (25:40):
Oh that was me and Baker Mayfield. Yeah, Oklahoma took
it to CCU Gary Patterson's team in the Big Twelve
championship game, and we had a little excitement with Baker
on stage. So I gave kind of like all right,
and on the way back to Joe Davis and that
(26:00):
was kind of like, you know, it was kind of like, well.
Speaker 8 (26:03):
That was very exciting.
Speaker 7 (26:05):
Bro.
Speaker 9 (26:07):
That's a little bit of a weird contrast, you know,
like the sounds like he's doing w W E.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
Bro I could do a game.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
I could never do a game with you all the
time because I'll be dying laughing half the time sitting
up with you in the booth.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
Like I didn't have to make it. Seriously, I know
it's too much.
Speaker 9 (26:26):
I'm very serious about my job in college football, but
it is.
Speaker 8 (26:32):
It is.
Speaker 9 (26:32):
It's hard to be serious in the off season when
these things happen and everybody's like, oh my god, can
you believe Colorado went to the Big twelve? It's like, yeah, totally.
I mean, what did the Colorado ever do in the
Pac twelve? Did they compete at all? Maybe a couple
of years, I mean really, I mean they had a.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
Come on, now, don't forget CEO. You had a good year.
Speaker 8 (26:58):
Their best year was the COVID year. That says it all.
Speaker 4 (27:02):
Yeah, but didn't melt Tucker parlay that into ninety million dollars?
Speaker 8 (27:06):
He sure did.
Speaker 4 (27:06):
Yeah, So, des there's a pause of the can.
Speaker 9 (27:09):
And that is an amazing occurrence, isn't it. You know
how Meltucker figured this. I mean, not everybody navigates their
way through the troubled waters of college football, but ends
up one hundred million dollars richer. But coach mal has
so congratulations to him. And uh, look, who knows what's
going to happen with PJ.
Speaker 8 (27:26):
Flack?
Speaker 9 (27:26):
I mean I turned on I Every time I open
the computer, something different is going on.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
Have you read that though he's a cult Yeah, well
you know what it sounds like. It sounds like a
bunch of players who didn't get any playing time and
for whatever reason, apparently missed when they signed up to
go play there.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
His mantras, his slogan like the row of the boat
is that?
Speaker 6 (27:49):
Is that not.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
Always what PJ. Fleck's been known for.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
Like at some point you got to put your foot
in the ground and say, these kids have to grow
up and realize you are being pushed mentally, in fit
physically to reach levels that you don't believe you can reach.
And there's going to be some uncomfortable things that come
along with that.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
But like you get a couple.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
A few disgruntled players now get a voice, and any
anyone who's willing to write a story an article, We're
going to write an article about it. It's just I
think it's a slippery slope that you think.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
I mean, you put anybody's venturing on.
Speaker 9 (28:22):
Yeah, I mean you put anybody inside any college football program,
it's going to seem really weird, and it's going to
seem cultish.
Speaker 8 (28:29):
The things they say are going to seem stupid.
Speaker 9 (28:32):
It's just like listening to any love song, Like every
breath you take, you're like, my god, this guy's a stalker.
Speaker 8 (28:38):
He's horrible. I mean, this is terrible. I mean, any
love song is like that song. It's not healthy, you know.
Speaker 9 (28:44):
I mean a lot of the way we approach college
football and the way we do it is not I
guess would be considered within the bounds of healthy in
today's day and age, where we are ultra sensitive and
really conscious of each other's feelings, which isn't necessarely a
bad thing, but it doesn't really mix with college football.
Speaker 8 (29:04):
And I've always said.
Speaker 9 (29:05):
For years and years that in a perfect world, you know,
this sport probably wouldn't exist because of all the crazy
things that are inside of it and some of the
stuff that it cultivates. Now, a lot of the other
stuff it cultivates is really cool. It reveals character and competition,
and competition reveals character and virtue, and we see the
(29:26):
best of each other when we're strained in a lot
of ways. But I think you're right, Brady. I think
the more you look into any college football program and
the more some player comes out and says, yeah, well,
let me tell you about what happened with this guy.
I mean, we can all do that for days and
extra days. Usually it's just called what we do around
a table drinking.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
Tell me what team or locker room you can walk into.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
It can't five five to ten discruntle players in any sport.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
But football in particular. Like, right, yeah, it might be
like a thirty I'll put it this way.
Speaker 1 (29:59):
There's people listening now that we're for a corporation that
think their boss is an idiot or their corporation sucks.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
But they're doing it for a paycheck.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
Like, if you want to find disgruntled people, you can
find them.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Like, there's plenty of people.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Who want to air out their issues or where they
feel like they've been wrong or what they don't like
about stuff. I just I feel like now we're starting
to give people who want to complain about stuff a voice,
And I'm just like, all right, why did you just
go somewhere else then, but you chose to go there
in the first place. It's not like Minnesota went ahead
and drafted you like you chose to go there. If
(30:30):
you didn't like it, go out, go somewhere else. But
that's how PJ. Fleck runs his program. He's actually done
a pretty decent job there.
Speaker 9 (30:37):
Yeah, I don't know. I mean, I've done maybe one
Minnesota game. The interesting thing about the Northwestern stuff for
me wasn't so much what happened there. Although it's a
wild story and I'm sure Pat Fitzgerald is going to
court and all that.
Speaker 8 (30:52):
But the one thing.
Speaker 9 (30:55):
That I never did a Northwestern game, like, I've never
met Pat Fitzgerald. I respected him from AFAR, but I
didn't know much about them as a program. I've done
one Minnesota game in my career, I believe I've dealt
with PJ. Fleck once, and the one thing that stood
out to me in that game was that he did
(31:17):
like a thirty yard lead up chest bump with his
wife after the game than they won, and him and
his wife literally sprinted at each other and did a
flying chest bump at an Oregon State of all places
on like the thirty yard line in Corvallis, and I
was like, wow, you know that is different. I just
(31:40):
I remember that stood out to me. But yeah, I
think you're absolutely right. I've never been in a football
program where everybody likes the coach. I think it's rare
in a football program if you have like sixty seventy
guys that really liked the coach, or really liked their
position coach, or really like the coordinate.
Speaker 8 (32:00):
It's not the nature of the sport.
Speaker 9 (32:02):
I mean, most football players just sit around and complain
about playing football and how much they hate playing and
having to put on all the pads and are we
going to be in half pads? Are we going to
be in helmets? So we're going to be in full pads?
What do we have to do today? What level of football?
Or are we going to have to perform today? That's
usually what's in the minds of football players. And then
(32:24):
you mix that with all the egos and the recruiting
and all the different stuff that goes along with it. No,
most everybody's disgruntled most all of the time. And I
don't think people understand that. I don't think people football
is such an inside out sport. Right, you're either inside
it and you understand it, or you're on the outside
and you're trying to understand it. If you're interested, We've
(32:46):
never had more interest in the sport. And I think
people don't understand what it's like to be inside the
situation on one of these teams. So you hear about
some of this stuff that just makes a lot of
us shrug our shoulders and go okay, and people are horrified.
And it's an interesting mix. You know, we talk about
football twenty four to seven and we've understood, we understand
(33:08):
it less and less. Uh As far as what the
people are like to play.
Speaker 4 (33:13):
Well, Petros, we're not discrumbled when you stop by, that's
for sure.
Speaker 9 (33:16):
Well, I'm sorry about you know, the day after little

Up, man, Yeah, right now, Eliah, is Petro still on vacation?
Is he joining us from vacation or is he back?
I believe he's back today. Okay, good? So I know
he joined us. He was in the desert or something
one time, and uh, I think we had a fill
in producer and the film producer was unaware that Petros
was not going to be joining us, and Petro's had
a little bit of a red ass having to join us,
(01:41):
soone to make sure he wasn't on vacation.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
You know, he should be in a good mood though.
He's coming off vacation, right, yeah, you.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
Would think so. I mean, he's got a lot of
uh you got a lot of college football games is
going to be calling soon. You know, all of that
stuff's gearing up and kicking off pretty quick here. And
I believe we are. Yeah, it's a twenty We are
a month away from week quote unquote zero in college football,
how about that one month away? Do you think any
(02:10):
of those Do you think any of those teams are
truly ready to kick off a month from now? Or
is it like all right, yeah, this is happening, We're
just gonna go with it. It feels like it comes
up pretty quick, like they're truly ready to rock, Like
for example, Notre Dames.
Speaker 5 (02:25):
You don't have to go through a training camp, so
you would think that it would come up quick, but
the guys that have to go through them training camps,
it doesn't come quick enough.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
August twenty six technically August twenty sixth so less than
a month away. Just feels like, you know, we're just
gonna all of a sudden roll out and games are
going to start counting, and you know, like for example,
Navy Notre Dame. I don't know if you guys are
aware this. They're going to be playing over in Ireland,
so you've got that whole matchup, so with travel time
to get out there.
Speaker 6 (02:55):
How you guys feel about that?
Speaker 4 (02:57):
Huh?
Speaker 2 (02:57):
I mean, I'm excited. You guys know my wheelhouse.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
I'd feel better. You are an under Dame fan.
Speaker 6 (03:06):
I got what I've always been.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
I got money on Navy.
Speaker 6 (03:11):
Yeah, but wow, hey, you.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Know it's not gonna be on the field at that game, Jonas.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
I'm just saying, you know, like that, look, I mean,
I could be convinced, I could be talked into it otherwise.
I mean, but you know that's all right. Just see
the way. See the way stuff works.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
A lot of people probably actually want if you're out
there and you're listening in your Notre Dame fan, you
probably want Jonas to bet it because.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
He's so bad he usually loses his bets. He's a
good sign.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
It's a new season, all right, and that brings that
brings hope. You know. There's also, by the way, a
little bit of hope in Carolina where it's official Bryce
Young is your QB one that according to Frank Reich,
So I know everybody, everybody assumed Andy Dalton was going
to beat him out for the job. But Bryce Young
is going to be your starting quarterback.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
For the Carolina someone Andy Dalton hall of famer?
Speaker 4 (04:02):
Yeah, who was that again? God wide receiver wide receiver
for the Carolina Panthers called him a Hall of famer. Yeah,
that didn't land well with a lot of people. Reach
Although he said Andy Daltons had a really.
Speaker 6 (04:19):
Hall of Fame though.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
Well, you know, he's had.
Speaker 6 (04:23):
A really hot mouse.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
Come on, says Miles Sanders, running back, who's keeping tracked?
I agree, who is keeping?
Speaker 5 (04:31):
Maybe he was just being sarcastic because of how running
backs are being treated. He was maybe he was taking
a shot at him.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
He was saying, like Hall of Fame type player, Oh
my gosh. I mean, look, Cincinnati was a playoff team
a lot of years in a row with Andy Dalton
as a quarterback. Now, they didn't win any games in
the playoffs, but they were He's had a really good
career Andy Dalton has, and so you know he he's
in Carolina now and he's got a mentor, the young
(05:02):
Bryce Young and maybe.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Frank great spot. He really is.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
Frank Reich might actually win Week one of an NFL
season for once, because he's never won Week one of
a year before in his entire coaching career. So all
those years in Indianapolis never won Week one. And they
are currently a three point underdog at the Atlanta Falcons
are the Carolina Panthers with devil.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
I'll take those three points.
Speaker 5 (05:25):
I agree, Yeah, I mean, I'll say that you guys
got them winning it, don't you.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
I would.
Speaker 6 (05:31):
I would.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
It's it's tough to win on the road, but I'll
take thee.
Speaker 5 (05:34):
I'm saying, you got them, you got them. You guys
have Carolina winning that division.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
No Saints, Saints.
Speaker 4 (05:43):
Okay, I haven't made my final pick yet.
Speaker 6 (05:46):
Yeah, I made Georgia and I still crunching the numbers.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
I'm crunching the numbers. You guys heard me earlier the Bills, uh,
And I know Brady loved me pointing this out. The
Bills climbing up my power rankings in the AFC, So
maybe the Carolina Panthers will be climbing up my.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Can you print those off for me again so I
can use it as toilet paper?
Speaker 2 (06:03):
I mean, is that possible?
Speaker 4 (06:04):
Again? This is this is the type of negative energy
that we don't need on the show. I don't understand.
I don't know why I don't.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
Really have any use of your power rankings outside of
toilet paper.
Speaker 4 (06:17):
Okay, And again, you know, depending on the type of.
Speaker 6 (06:20):
People deliver those picks to the corn fairies.
Speaker 4 (06:23):
Yeah, maybe if you're wondering what that reference is, just
make sure to listen to the podcast. That'll be posted
up after we go off the air, so you understand
why corn fairy made its way to this program, along
with how much weed Willie Nelson smokes. But that is
the latest on the quarterback with the Carolina Panthers. Bryce
(06:47):
Young is going to be their QB one. Now. We
also opened up the show talking about Jim Irsay. Brady
Quinn is actually in Indianapolis. I don't know if him
and Jim Mersey are drinking together, but Jim Irsay may
have you know, done a keg stand or two and
hopped on Twitter and decided to chime in on the
running back position and said the following NFL running back situation.
(07:08):
We have negotiated a CBA that took years of effort
and hard work and compromise and good faith by both sides.
To say now that a specific player category wants another
negotiation after the fact is inappropriate. Some agents are selling
quote unquote bad faith Jonathan Taylor, who will be up
for a contract very very soon and is a very
good running back for Jim Mersey's Indianapolis Colts. Jonathan Taylor's
(07:32):
agent quote retweeted or quote re exed, whatever they're calling
it now, Jim mersay and said bad faith is not
paying your top offensive player. So wow, feels like we
are off and running with the what's reming?
Speaker 5 (07:46):
Both are both are true, though I know who's talking
about one doesn't One doesn't have to be false, you know,
for the other to be true. They're both true statements.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
That is a good point.
Speaker 6 (07:58):
So how does that work? How does that work?
Speaker 4 (08:01):
If we are going to say best offensive player, I
think Quentin Nelson probably would be stacked a little higher
than Jonathan Taylor. Yeah, to Brady's point.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
You think just yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
I that it's I mean debatable as far as their
career so far. But he you know, running back position
is one that is Look, it's taking a hit right now.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
I mean it's kind of funny that we bring.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Up a guard too, because if you look at the
franchise tag, I mean, you've got on average, probably you know,
guys making six million more five million more per year, right,
maybe ten ten million more in some cases that play guard.
So it goes to show you where teams are investing
their money. They're investing everywhere else outside of the running
(08:47):
back position, because no one's investing in.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
The running game and that's just the reality of it.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
Wow, it's unfortunate.
Speaker 5 (08:55):
Well, I think the conversation at this point really is
it like like I hate, I don't hate to say.
Speaker 6 (09:04):
It, it is what it is.
Speaker 5 (09:05):
Like ersay said, that's that's what was negotiated and and
that's they have to deal with this situation the best
way that they can. But I honestly believe, I honestly
believe that making the type of money and I know
I might not this might not sound popular, but making
(09:28):
the type of money that you're making in the league,
at some point, just make your money and save your money,
because it's going to be enough money, like more than
enough money for you to have the lifestyle that you
want to have and lead a happy, productive life knowing
(09:49):
that you had a gig, you know, out of high
school or out of college that allotted you the opportunity
to have economic stability and economic freedom in your life.
Like to me, sometimes I think that gets a little
lost in all of this. And I understand guys want
to get the whole idea of what fear compensation is.
(10:13):
But if that's the market that's being set and that's
where it's at, tight ends have had to go through it.
Now it's coming back around for tight ends, but they
still don't get paid, like how white receivers get paid. Fullbacks, hell,
they're not even around anymore. It's like what two or
three fullbacks left in the NFL?
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Could you make the case var that like anyone in
regards like revolving around the run game, maybe the exception
of lineman because they obviously and pass protection have to
protect back all that. Yeah, but if you're saying, like
even off the ball linebackers, they're not being paid as much.
You know, they're being transitioned to you know, safeties who
(10:55):
can cover or kind of hybrid players in that respect,
I mean pretty much anything surrounding the run games, stopping
to run.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
That's just they're not compensated as well.
Speaker 5 (11:05):
Like I said, Q, when we were playing, I can't
think of too many, if any programs where you were
here coming out of them pass first. I think the
whole concept and the whole theory behind football was run
the ball, pass the ball, run first, pass the ball.
(11:27):
Like even if you were a pass heavy team, you're
still run the ball. Established a run, established a run
because the run can help you and your passing game.
But that's not even that's not even a conversation anymore.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Right, analytics, because a lot of the analytics guys have
basically looked at the stats and you don't have to
have an effective running game for the defense to bite
up on a play action pass fig or a run
action pass fake like that's that's what's that's what's happened.
It's got to the point where you know, defensive players
(12:05):
are looking at the situation. You know they're not going
to think about, oh, remember when he ripped off like
the last drive, you know, three different runs for six
plus yards right like, you see ball stuck out there,
you're going you're going to fill, or you see action
by the offensive line of pulling guards them else you're
going to fill.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Like everything's telling you it's run until it's not.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
And that's where I think, you know, more and more
people who have looked at the data said, we don't
even have to be able to run the football effectively.
We just have to run it enough to keep a
defense balanced for the most part, because it's still about
the it's still about the passing game.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
And then Saquon Barkley's teammate Andrew Thomas gets a five
year one hundred and seventeen point five million dollar extension
with sixty seven million guaranteed. So he's he's high atop
the list of top paid offensive tackles. And the day
before Saquon Barkley signed, you know, an eleven million dollars
one year deal for all intents and purposes.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
Let's see, And now I understand. I kept asking why
did he what what was this all about? And I
know you're you're pointing out the obvious with with the
contract and the value, but I get now why they
did what they did. So the whole you're not doing
another year of you're not doing another year of a
(13:25):
franchise tag. This is like more or less play this
year out you get, you get credit for this year
on your contract and and he would become.
Speaker 6 (13:34):
A free agent all the way next year, right.
Speaker 4 (13:37):
Much so that will work unless they tag him again.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Then he would get twelve which it's.
Speaker 5 (13:43):
Not the worst thing that but why but why tag them?
But what they tag them again? If they already tagged
him this year and gave him a contract that doesn't
really doesn't it kind of undo in a way the
the tag, like by giving him a contract that's bigger
(14:04):
larger than the tag. Well then I'm still trying to
understand it. Then I'm still yeah, why.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Because they incentivized him.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Right, they gave him two million up front, which he
wasn't gonna get, right, he wouldn't get the monies that
were owed to him money the franchise tag until he
got to that first first paycheck, a game check.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
So that's the first thing. He's got immediate cash up front, and.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
Then the rest of the moneies owed to him are
spread out over the course of the salary. And then
you've got on top of that, you had incentives that
that add on.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Another about a million dollars he can earn.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
So he's incentivized in a few ways, the additional capital
he can earn, but also the money he gets up front.
Speaker 5 (14:45):
See, Okay, it makes more sense. I guess now that
you explained it that way. I thought it was more
or less. Sa Quon does the deal because he can
basically become a free agent and renegotiate his deal after
this season.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Now that's what interesting is put.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
He didn't put in like a no, you know, a
no tag claws or something. I'm not sure if he
could have reworked it and done that, or maybe they tried.
The giants wouldn't take it, but look, he'll get I
mean I wouldn't take it. What he's going to make
this year, I wouldn't take it.
Speaker 6 (15:19):
Right if he has a big year, if.
Speaker 5 (15:20):
You're motivating him to have a big year and he
has a monster year or has the type of year
he had this past season, I wouldn't want to just
let him out right. I mean, while we may say
he doesn't hold value as a running back at the position,
he holds positional value twenty four.
Speaker 4 (15:42):
Million over a two year run at running back. This
running back you could do a lot worse.
Speaker 5 (15:48):
And then the thing is what I'm saying, get too
far away from that.
Speaker 6 (15:53):
Yeah it's not getting better. Yeah it's not getting better.
Speaker 5 (15:57):
So I think you got to look look at it
at its barest minimum. You're in a job where the
position is declining and regular workforces. If a position is
declining and becomes obsolete, they get rid of it and
you lose your job. So I don't, you know, make
(16:18):
your money and save your money. So I feel like
that's that's that's feasible.

what's happening?
Speaker 6 (17:28):
Hello?
Speaker 8 (17:29):
Sorry? That about yesterday?
Speaker 4 (17:32):
No, where were we at he?
Speaker 9 (17:33):
I was in a southern California town called uh in
the north area of Ventura County called Oha.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (17:45):
Wow, Yeah. People have been to OHI before.
Speaker 9 (17:49):
Probably a lot of your listeners around the country may
not have heard of it. It's a small kind of
art slash farming community.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
Vineyards, a lot of wine vineyards over there.
Speaker 8 (18:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (18:02):
I'm not much of a wine drinker anymore. I used
to drink a lot of wine when I waited tables,
and I mean like a lot of wine.
Speaker 8 (18:09):
Like we would.
Speaker 9 (18:10):
Duzzle cheap crook table wine in the back while we
were serving. So uh, you know, wine gives me indigestion.
I'm not much of a but I drank a lot
of fancy drinks, you know, like the cocktails they have
like like on the menu with like cool names.
Speaker 4 (18:27):
I drank some of those nice.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
Oh what is the is it?
Speaker 6 (18:32):
Opah?
Speaker 8 (18:32):
What's the the Greek exclamation? Yeah? Yeah, yeah yeah?
Speaker 2 (18:39):
And what's the drink after dinner drink? What's that called?
Speaker 6 (18:42):
Oh?
Speaker 9 (18:43):
You're talking about the Greek liqueur usoo.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
That was yeah.
Speaker 9 (18:49):
Yeah, it's like it's got like a black licorice kind
of vibe.
Speaker 8 (18:55):
Yeah, all that different stuff.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Very close.
Speaker 9 (18:57):
Yeah, it's I mean you, very common in Greek households
to use uzo on the gums of teething children and
to rub it on there because it's made with some
kind of like the same stuff that they make anesthetic with,
so it has a numbing effect in the mouth and throat.
(19:19):
But Greeks also drink a brandy. There's a Greek brandy
called Metoxa that's named after a Greek prime minister who
gave a very famous one word speech in Greek history
around World War Two when Italy was trying to occupy Greece,
you know, the same way Germany occupied for me, He said.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
Auchi What does that mean?
Speaker 8 (19:44):
Ochi?
Speaker 9 (19:46):
I guess in English it would be o x i,
which is no, ki means no. And the Greek celebrate
I think it's in October. They celebrate Auchi Day, which
is the day of no. Yeah, the day you told
Italy no, you're gonna have to come and occupy us,
which they did, but we didn't just lay down like France. Well, well,
(20:11):
we did just lay down like the French. You know, look,
the French had a rough time. World War One was
rough on the French and they really weren't feeling it
when World War Two came around. And you know, I
guess we can understand to a certain degree. But I
believe you know where the word Cretan. You ever heard,
like somebody called a Cretan like you know, like like
(20:34):
you're like like you're an animal. Derogatory term, right, And
that comes from the Nazi army, I believe because Crete
was never taken. Crete was a is a Greek island.
It's the biggest Greek island and it was the longest
occupied by the evil Turkish Ottoman Empire and they used
(20:54):
to really beat up on the Greeks there. So they
were occupied for a long time and they weren't having
it when the Germans tried to come in, old ladies
and children with pitchforks and stuff, just taking it to
the paratroopers to where the Germans just called them Cretans
and gave up trying to take the island.
Speaker 4 (21:11):
How about that.
Speaker 9 (21:12):
Wow, I believe that's true. But I'm sure you have
some historic fact checkers out there.
Speaker 4 (21:17):
You know at one point in time, speaking of history,
Petros Colorado was in the Big twelve.
Speaker 8 (21:22):
Yeah, yeah, yeah that Uh.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
It's happening again. I think I think it's happening.
Speaker 9 (21:27):
The the Jenga game has finally come to its to
its abrupt ending. And I mean nobody's surprised. Is anybody surprised?
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Now?
Speaker 4 (21:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (21:39):
I mean I wasn't.
Speaker 9 (21:40):
I figured something was wrong when they sat me with
the Colorado people at the table at that Pack twelve dinner, Brady,
I was like, who the hell are.
Speaker 8 (21:50):
These guys out there? They got one foot out the door?
Speaker 2 (21:53):
Can I be honest with you. I had gotten wind
of that thing at that night.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
And and what surprises me is the messaging from the PAC
twelve where you keep hearing Clive Cooff say, you know,
the longer we wait, the better do it gets.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
How can that be the case? How could the deal
get better the longer they wait, especially if more teams
are going to move out of the conference.
Speaker 9 (22:16):
I remember twenty eighteen, I was doing the PAC twelve
championship game with you, Brady.
Speaker 8 (22:22):
Remember you did the game with Joe Davis.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
I did never forget the postgame trophy ceremony.
Speaker 8 (22:29):
Why did I do something wrong.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
No, not wrong. It's just one of the most amazing things. Afterwards,
I think at one for it, you were like.
Speaker 8 (22:37):
Ah, no, I think that was the Big twelve.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
Well that was a Big twelve.
Speaker 9 (22:41):
Yeah No, this one was like remember that game was
like six to three or something like that.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
It was really kind of a Washington, Colorado.
Speaker 9 (22:49):
Yeah, Wash No, Washington, Utah, Washington, utahka. Right, And it
doesn't really matter who played or what happened in the game.
But Brady called the game, and I was the sideline guy,
and I remember, you know, whenever you have a PAC
twelve championship or any kind of championship, sometimes there's like
a state of the State sort of address. And Larry Scott,
(23:10):
who literally him, along with the university presidents, they really
destroyed West Coast football as we know it. And the
thing that bothers me the most about the PAC twelve,
which is imminently collapsing now and we all have seen
it coming, the thing that really bothers me about it
(23:31):
is it didn't have to happen. They very could have
easily partnered with Fox or NBC or anybody that does
college football or wants to do college football ESPN, people
that know how to put TV on the air, all
that stuff. They could have partnered with any of those
people and had comparable money to the Big ten network
(23:52):
and the Big twelve and all the different people going
around right now. They could have done that, and those
deals were there to be made, and they were not made.
Speaker 8 (24:00):
They were made by a guy named Larry Scott.
Speaker 9 (24:02):
So let's go back to twenty eighteen, and everybody's like, dude,
what are we gonna do. The conference is bleeding out.
Perdues made seventy million more dollars than Oregon State or
whatever to this point on these network TV deals, and
Larry Scott's was like his message was, well, you guys,
just wait till twenty twenty three and you see what
(24:23):
we got. And it was like that was five years
ago and they were kicking the ball down the road
to twenty twenty three. Well the longer you wait, My point,
Brady is, look what happened. They were waiting and waiting
and waiting, and suddenly they're hot LA girlfriends left for
(24:45):
a banana nosed idiot guy in the Midwest. You know,
I mean all that time, you know that you were like, well,
wait till twenty twenty three comes around, everything's going to change.
Then you lost the two things that made the conference
viable USC and UC, so they've been poorly managed from
the get go. I don't know what we would we
expect from Kleioff cough. I'm not impressed at anything he
(25:08):
says or does, but it's almost like he has an
absolutely impossible job at this point, because there's rumors that
Oregon's going now to the Big twelve of all places,
and then the Big Ten is going to scoop up
whoever they want, if they want them, and then everybody
else is going to be absorbed by some kind of
mountain west looking West coast thing.
Speaker 8 (25:29):
I feel bad about it.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
Can we go back to the Big twelve though, and
go back through that? Ah?
Speaker 8 (25:37):
That was.
Speaker 9 (25:40):
Oh that was me and Baker Mayfield. Yeah, Oklahoma took
it to CCU Gary Patterson's team in the Big Twelve
championship game, and we had a little excitement with Baker
on stage. So I gave kind of like all right,
and on the way back to Joe Davis and that
(26:00):
was kind of like, you know, it was kind of like, well.
Speaker 8 (26:03):
That was very exciting.
Speaker 7 (26:05):
Bro.
Speaker 9 (26:07):
That's a little bit of a weird contrast, you know,
like the sounds like he's doing w W E.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
Bro I could do a game.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
I could never do a game with you all the
time because I'll be dying laughing half the time sitting
up with you in the booth.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
Like I didn't have to make it. Seriously, I know
it's too much.
Speaker 9 (26:26):
I'm very serious about my job in college football, but
it is.
Speaker 8 (26:32):
It is.
Speaker 9 (26:32):
It's hard to be serious in the off season when
these things happen and everybody's like, oh my god, can
you believe Colorado went to the Big twelve? It's like, yeah, totally.
I mean, what did the Colorado ever do in the
Pac twelve? Did they compete at all? Maybe a couple
of years, I mean really, I mean they had a.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
Come on, now, don't forget CEO. You had a good year.
Speaker 8 (26:58):
Their best year was the COVID year. That says it all.
Speaker 4 (27:02):
Yeah, but didn't melt Tucker parlay that into ninety million dollars?
Speaker 8 (27:06):
He sure did.
Speaker 4 (27:06):
Yeah, So, des there's a pause of the can.
Speaker 9 (27:09):
And that is an amazing occurrence, isn't it. You know
how Meltucker figured this. I mean, not everybody navigates their
way through the troubled waters of college football, but ends
up one hundred million dollars richer. But coach mal has
so congratulations to him. And uh, look, who knows what's
going to happen with PJ.
Speaker 8 (27:26):
Flack?
Speaker 9 (27:26):
I mean I turned on I Every time I open
the computer, something different is going on.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
Have you read that though he's a cult Yeah, well
you know what it sounds like. It sounds like a
bunch of players who didn't get any playing time and
for whatever reason, apparently missed when they signed up to
go play there.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
His mantras, his slogan like the row of the boat
is that?
Speaker 6 (27:49):
Is that not.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
Always what PJ. Fleck's been known for.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
Like at some point you got to put your foot
in the ground and say, these kids have to grow
up and realize you are being pushed mentally, in fit
physically to reach levels that you don't believe you can reach.
And there's going to be some uncomfortable things that come
along with that.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
But like you get a couple.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
A few disgruntled players now get a voice, and any
anyone who's willing to write a story an article, We're
going to write an article about it. It's just I
think it's a slippery slope that you think.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
I mean, you put anybody's venturing on.
Speaker 9 (28:22):
Yeah, I mean you put anybody inside any college football program,
it's going to seem really weird, and it's going to
seem cultish.
Speaker 8 (28:29):
The things they say are going to seem stupid.
Speaker 9 (28:32):
It's just like listening to any love song, Like every
breath you take, you're like, my god, this guy's a stalker.
Speaker 8 (28:38):
He's horrible. I mean, this is terrible. I mean, any
love song is like that song. It's not healthy, you know.
Speaker 9 (28:44):
I mean a lot of the way we approach college
football and the way we do it is not I
guess would be considered within the bounds of healthy in
today's day and age, where we are ultra sensitive and
really conscious of each other's feelings, which isn't necessarely a
bad thing, but it doesn't really mix with college football.
Speaker 8 (29:04):
And I've always said.
Speaker 9 (29:05):
For years and years that in a perfect world, you know,
this sport probably wouldn't exist because of all the crazy
things that are inside of it and some of the
stuff that it cultivates. Now, a lot of the other
stuff it cultivates is really cool. It reveals character and competition,
and competition reveals character and virtue, and we see the
(29:26):
best of each other when we're strained in a lot
of ways. But I think you're right, Brady. I think
the more you look into any college football program and
the more some player comes out and says, yeah, well,
let me tell you about what happened with this guy.
I mean, we can all do that for days and
extra days. Usually it's just called what we do around
a table drinking.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
Tell me what team or locker room you can walk into.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
It can't five five to ten discruntle players in any sport.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
But football in particular. Like, right, yeah, it might be
like a thirty I'll put it this way.
Speaker 1 (29:59):
There's people listening now that we're for a corporation that
think their boss is an idiot or their corporation sucks.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
But they're doing it for a paycheck.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
Like, if you want to find disgruntled people, you can
find them.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Like, there's plenty of people.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Who want to air out their issues or where they
feel like they've been wrong or what they don't like
about stuff. I just I feel like now we're starting
to give people who want to complain about stuff a voice,
And I'm just like, all right, why did you just
go somewhere else then, but you chose to go there
in the first place. It's not like Minnesota went ahead
and drafted you like you chose to go there. If
(30:30):
you didn't like it, go out, go somewhere else. But
that's how PJ. Fleck runs his program. He's actually done
a pretty decent job there.
Speaker 9 (30:37):
Yeah, I don't know. I mean, I've done maybe one
Minnesota game. The interesting thing about the Northwestern stuff for
me wasn't so much what happened there. Although it's a
wild story and I'm sure Pat Fitzgerald is going to
court and all that.
Speaker 8 (30:52):
But the one thing.
Speaker 9 (30:55):
That I never did a Northwestern game, like, I've never
met Pat Fitzgerald. I respected him from AFAR, but I
didn't know much about them as a program. I've done
one Minnesota game in my career, I believe I've dealt
with PJ. Fleck once, and the one thing that stood
out to me in that game was that he did
(31:17):
like a thirty yard lead up chest bump with his
wife after the game than they won, and him and
his wife literally sprinted at each other and did a
flying chest bump at an Oregon State of all places
on like the thirty yard line in Corvallis, and I
was like, wow, you know that is different. I just
(31:40):
I remember that stood out to me. But yeah, I
think you're absolutely right. I've never been in a football
program where everybody likes the coach. I think it's rare
in a football program if you have like sixty seventy
guys that really liked the coach, or really liked their
position coach, or really like the coordinate.
Speaker 8 (32:00):
It's not the nature of the sport.
Speaker 9 (32:02):
I mean, most football players just sit around and complain
about playing football and how much they hate playing and
having to put on all the pads and are we
going to be in half pads? Are we going to
be in helmets? So we're going to be in full pads?
What do we have to do today? What level of football?
Or are we going to have to perform today? That's
usually what's in the minds of football players. And then
(32:24):
you mix that with all the egos and the recruiting
and all the different stuff that goes along with it. No,
most everybody's disgruntled most all of the time. And I
don't think people understand that. I don't think people football
is such an inside out sport. Right, you're either inside
it and you understand it, or you're on the outside
and you're trying to understand it. If you're interested, We've
(32:46):
never had more interest in the sport. And I think
people don't understand what it's like to be inside the
situation on one of these teams. So you hear about
some of this stuff that just makes a lot of
us shrug our shoulders and go okay, and people are horrified.
And it's an interesting mix. You know, we talk about
football twenty four to seven and we've understood, we understand
(33:08):
it less and less. Uh As far as what the
people are like to play.
Speaker 4 (33:13):
Well, Petros, we're not discrumbled when you stop by, that's
for sure.
