Speaker 1 (00:00):
Fox Sports Radio The Jason Smith Show with my best
friend Mike Harmon tomorrow, someone's walking away for Nanda Mendozo
with the Heisman Trophy. Well, when you win the Maxwell
and Davey O'Brien Award, gotta think that's gonna happen.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (00:14):
Meanwhile, maybe Michigan hires a new head coach by tomorrow.
Nobody better to talk to about both of these things
than longtime friend of the show, the owner, editor, proprietor
Grand Pooba of College Footballnews dot Com. All the picks,
all the analysis, all the prognostications you could possibly want,
by our man, Pete Futech.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
He is on Twitter at Pete feutech Uh. Pete so uh.
A bit of a week we weren't expecting in college football.

Speaker 3 (00:41):
A lot of stuff happening out there. Yeah no, it's
I mean, there's not gonna be anything too interesting to
morow that I'll be. I mean, if it's not Mendoza,
who's it gonna be. Because I don't know, I might
vote for this thing. I'm not supposed to say anything,
but like you know, you saw it tonight. He kind
of won everything except for the Bulletnikoff, which was interesting.

(01:04):
Because Makayle Lemon wins this thing. I vote for that too,
and nobody I know, know, you know pretty much vote
did not vote for Jeremiah Smith. But okay, you know
the welcome to Award season, here we go.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
So so what you're telling me is Steve Vangeli, even
though proving he may be the most valuable player in
college football.

Speaker 2 (01:23):
Is not going to win the Heisman Trophy.

Speaker 3 (01:26):
Well, there is not a you know, he got shot.
I'm sure he got vote, you know, maybe ten, but
there's not. But it's this But again, this was I
said before. It was like nine o'clock on Saturday night
and I still didn't quite have my my ballot ready
to go yet. So, uh, this will This is a
bad year for the Heisman, probably the worst I can

(01:49):
ever remember. There isn't a real Heisman guy there, So
I'm guessing. I'm guessing it's gonna be Mendoza because I'm
gonna think the other three guys probably split them pretty
much equally.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
Yeah, the odds certainly heavy, heavy in Mendoza favor. But
we were talking about a little bit earlier, Pete, the
fact that all four of these guys were really far
off the map when we started. This season has got
to be good for something. Even if we do the
comparisons of hey, they pale in comparison to these great
seasons in the past, unless.

Speaker 3 (02:22):
You know, it means that arch Manning suck.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
You know, so it's i mean, he finished strong, Pete,
he finished strong.

Speaker 3 (02:28):
Come on, well, the Heisman is so hard to win.
I mean, like look at stuff like the Doak Walker
and you're like, the Doak Walker is like you know,
Jonathan Taylor and Derrick Henry and Ricky Williams and you know,
all these like real you know guy. I mean there's
some you know, strange names on there as well, but
you know those are like the Titans of you know,

(02:50):
the college football game. You look at the Heisman, all right,
Eric Crouch pretty good, you know. You know, Gina Toretto
was all right. I mean you've got some interesting characters
on there. But you know, no, look, this year it's
it really was, you know, a year where it was
more about the team. Uh, but none of these guys
did anything that was at a whole other level where

(03:10):
you haven't seen it before, like Jaydon Daniels statistically or
you know, even Travis Hunter to a certain extent, even
though I didn't have him on my ballot. But there's
just not a guy who's like, this is the guy
of the season. And I will still get I get
yelled at everybody by everyone when I do this, especially
people who do what I do, who find this that
might as well say their dogs ugly or something. I

(03:32):
think we should have vothe for the Heisman and the
NFL MVP. By the way, after the seasons they're over,
like when the real when the most important games happened,
Like well, the Big tim Championship didn't matter on Saturday night.
All the matters is you know what is Mendoza saying
do for? Because the saying rips it up and he's
awesome in the college football playoffs. Well, then I don't

(03:53):
know what. You know, we'll do? You know who did
the Heisman thing would be then? So I think we
should do this after the season is out.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (04:01):
It reminds me Pete this year, like what what you said,
the lack of juice, the tepidness. It's kind of like
when Troy Smith won in two thousand and six. Right,
he was the best quarterback on the best team. He
was a really good leader and nobody jumped out with stats.
Nobody had seventy touchdowns like Joe Burrow did. So yeah, okay,
Troy Smith wins. That's kind of what I feel like.

(04:22):
Fernanda Mendoza is on the best team. He's you know,
great leader, he's you know, thirty touchdowns, and he's had
his moments. So yeah, he's gonna win the Heisman Trophy.

Speaker 3 (04:31):
And that's kind of a different too. I mean, the
one throw at the end of the game against Ohio
State is like, okay, well there's a moment. And obviously
the Penn State game, you know, so it's again, all
these guys are good, and I don't like it's it's
hard to like say, you know that when these guys
aren't worthy of these seasons. But again, none of them
stood out. There really isn't a real screaming Heisman war

(04:54):
this year.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
Well, we filibustered long enough with positive that he what
the hell is going on in Michigan.

Speaker 3 (05:03):
I don't know. The whole thing is weird from top
to bottom, and you know, and the number of people
are coming out, Oh I knew this was gonna happen.
It's like, oh, really, okay, you know that there's always
rumors of this and.

Speaker 4 (05:15):
This and this.

Speaker 3 (05:17):
It's weird from the beginning. First of all, it's not
a football story. And so the sad part about it
is obviously, you know, here's a guy whose life is
in real, real problems. Now his family's got real problems.
I mean, these are isn't a real world thing, not
like a Connor Stallion type of silly, you know sort

(05:38):
of thing. This is. And and for you know, for
the for Twitter and for every fan bases of other
teams to kind of rip on this in a football
way is just wrong. For Twitter to take its racism
to a whole other level is just obviously even more wrong,
and just it's just ugly from top to bottom. And look,

(05:59):
it's it's been handled wrong by Michigan in every way.
I haven't heard anything yet about you know, the woman
who's making claims here that it sounds like it's just
there was just a violation of school policy.

Speaker 5 (06:13):
She isn't.

Speaker 3 (06:14):
I haven't heard anything yet. I mean, it could be
very wrong here. So if something goes in sideways, don't
hold me to this. But like, it doesn't seem like
there was anything other than just something that goes against
the morality clause in the contract that Moore had and
then obviously gets fired there because of this morality clause,
and just everything goes sideway. So it's just an awful,

(06:34):
awful time for everyone involved.

Speaker 1 (06:37):
Now the thing is beaten out to turn this into
a football story. You know, we mentioned this last hour.
I know that it seems like we're in early days
and Sharon Moore.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
And this is just unfolding.

Speaker 1 (06:46):
But Michigan can't really wait to hire a head coach.
You might start losing players, you might start losing commits. Like,
you got to fix this thing pretty fast. And the
fact that we haven't heard anything, I'm thinking that if
Kaylin de Boor loses to Oklahoma, he's the coach of
Michigan next year, and he's.

Speaker 2 (07:05):
Bought out of Alabama and he's a new head coach in.

Speaker 3 (07:07):
Michigan who's playing tomorrow night? What there's a bowl game
that's going to be happening right about now, right around your.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
It's Boise State, yeah, Washington, Yeah, and uh.

Speaker 3 (07:23):
Huh, there you go, you get there, get there, you
got it with good Fish. That's probably your guy in
the clubhouse.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
It's Jet Fish. Huh.

Speaker 3 (07:31):
Okay, I do, I do. I didn't even to make
this a weird but like, yeah.

Speaker 2 (07:34):
See I was I was more thinking you were going
to talk about John Cena and Gunter, but yeah, go ahead.

Speaker 3 (07:38):
No, no, no, the whole point being that, you know what,
there's the whole there's never a good time for a
coaching change. Well this is pretty good because you know
it doesn't matter. Michigan is not playing for anything. Real,
it's a ball game. Okay, whatever, Uh, you just pass
the signing day things. You're fine. You're in transfer portal time.
That's fine too. You got a whole off eason to

(08:00):
get everything in place. So if jet Fish is your guy,
well he's available tomorrow night, right about this time. So
play into the rule. I mean, you guys are everybody else. Actually,
we in a weird way sort of broke it and
got trouble for it. When remember the whole thing about

(08:21):
less Miles and less Miles was you know, gonna be
the next head coach. And then all of a sudden
they miraculously got into the BCS Championship, and you know,
Michigan had to act fast, and you got Rich Rodriguez.
I hope they learned from their mistake. That you don't
have to rush this, So it's the bores your guy,

(08:41):
or if a Tommy Reese is your guy, or a
Jesse Minter, if they've if they've found someone in this
whole process that they said, this isn't going to be
the best head coach in the University of Michigan, then
wait a month, you know, wait a few weeks. You know,
seeing yourself as a headache. If you're not sure that
it's someone like a jet fish.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
Well, as we start looking ahead, I mean we're going
down all the batting odds. It's some fun names certainly
mixed in their pete. But you know, how about you
immersing yourself. I mean, hey, we got one Bowl game,
but then you know, you get playoffs are just a
week away.

Speaker 3 (09:17):
Yeah, And the crazy part about it is that we
still have the time including this. I've been on how
many radio shows of the last donal was four days?
Not one have I talked about any specific game because
it's all been about how it's the Notre Dame process
or now More or Lane Kiffen. And the biggest problem

(09:39):
of all is, gosh, if you look at that Saturday
of first round games, like there's no all these people say, oh, well,
this corrupt college football playoff system. If the if they're corrupt,
there's no way that they willingly would have wanted to
show choose to have. Okay, Miami Texas A and m
is right well up to this first thing in the

(09:59):
morning's nine am Pacific time, you know, Waken Bull that's
right out of the gate. And then you get to
Lane Ole, miss which was a forty five to ten
game earlier this year. And then Oregon James Madison where
if this isn't fifty two to two, I will be shocked.

Speaker 2 (10:16):
I will be And they run him Pete, They run
him against the Bears and Packers, yes, and the.

Speaker 3 (10:23):
Detect the Eagles and the Commanders in the middle of
the afternoon where everyone's in there, you know, fantasy playoffs
and stuff, care about this stuff, and you're right, Bears
Packers is going to be like, who's I'm going to
watch this? I'm gonna be it. I'm gonna be the
only person in America who's gonna sit there. And even
though I live in Chicago and I'll have it on
multi view and I'll probably have to sound on the Bears,
but I'm the only person who's going to actually have

(10:47):
on part of a screen this James Madison Oregon game
unless it gets good and then you know, social media, Hey,
you gotta turn to this. I again, if it's not
twenty eight nothing in the first quarter or after at
least the first drive, I'll I will be absolutely stunned
if Oregon just doesn't do this. And it's fine, I
get it, you give the guy the shot. That's kind
of the point, a little bit of a reward for Oregon.

(11:09):
But again, the whole idea that the college football Playoff
is corrupt, well, if it was corrupt, then James Madison
is not playing, like you said on Sunday night opposite
Bears Packers.

Speaker 1 (11:20):
All right, Pete, So let's finish here now to combo
the NFL and college football. Like you said, seeing all
the players, seeing all the quarterbacks you have right now,
we got a lot of guys who are yeah, they're okay,
not quite what we expect for twenty twenty seven. And
I'm sure if Arch Manning declared for the NFL draft,
he'd be the number one overall pick. But if I

(11:40):
said to you right now what you've seen this year,
you know, boldseason still to come. Obviously, if I said,
who's the first quarterback off the board in the NFL,
who would you pick as the first quarterback off the board?

Speaker 2 (11:51):
Who are you telling me?

Speaker 3 (11:52):
I am really curious to see what Dante Moore does,
and I think I feel like Oregon's been a little
bit lost in this mix, only because of all the
noise in the room from Indiana and Ohio State. I
like Mendoza, I'm not there that he's the number one
be all end all guy. I don't. I'm not really

(12:13):
there at Carson Carson feck totally. But remember that was
a guy who's got the skills. He was supposedly going
to be the number one Picke at one point. I'm
waiting to see what he does in this playoff. But
I really want to see what Dante Moore does, because
he's got the skills, He's got the next level things
in place there. This could be his playoffs and this
and we know how this works, the playoffs. Everyone, most

(12:36):
people are gonna watch this at some point and all
of a sudden, whoever, whatever happens in this thing, docs
are going to rise fast. I mean, last year you
did have Will Howard versus Riley Leonard. While he might
get Rivany Lyons this weekend, it wasn't exactly a who's
who of big time quarterbacks. This time around, We're gonna
have some pretty big quarterbacks playing in this thing.

Speaker 1 (12:56):
He's on Twitter at Pete Futech, That is, at Pete
few Time at College Footballnews dot com. You're one stop
shopping for everything college football.

Speaker 2 (13:04):
Okay, really real, real quick? Pete Army, Navy, who do
you got?

Speaker 3 (13:08):
Maybe? Why not?

Speaker 2 (13:11):
There you go and enjoy the fish Bowl tomorrow. That's
all the pick is Navy?

Speaker 6 (13:15):
Why not?

Speaker 4 (13:16):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (13:17):
Jedge, good analysis, Jedfish, Pete few Tax leader in the club.

Speaker 2 (13:22):
He could be the Michigan head coach this time tomorrow night.
How about it? I'm out of here? Oh man? Uh
So there we go. Hey could be Jet jetfit maybe
not wait for Kaitlin to board. Jedfish and TJ. He
clearly could be the fish that saved Michigan. TJ.

Speaker 1 (13:39):
Uh, I gotta explain to him for you, me and
about five other people. I gotta explain to anybody who's
not Generation X what the fish that save Pittsburgh was.

Speaker 7 (13:49):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (13:49):
Time now to find out what's trending in the wide
world of sports from someone who was counting the hours
until she can go home.

Speaker 2 (13:56):
It's Monty Blagos with what's trend?

Speaker 8 (13:58):
I'm not counting in the hours? I like that, But
tell me, what did you explain that to me? But
I didn't get that.

Speaker 2 (14:04):
You just fished that. Save Pittsburgh.

Speaker 1 (14:07):

basketball team in Pittsburgh and there was an astrologist who

(14:28):
was and who was helping like coach the team and
that's how they all had to be the team started

Channing was the astrologer who was helping them to win
because it was all about the uh, the astrological signs
and how they won. Like that was the movie in
nineteen seventy nine, Pretty.

Speaker 2 (14:46):
Pretty good cash. You got metal arc lemon Kareem Abdul Jabbar,

got it, okay, all right, I'm so confused.

Speaker 8 (15:16):
It's a movie.

Speaker 2 (15:17):
It's a movie. The boy I'm gonna blame. I'm gonna
blame the illness.

Speaker 5 (15:21):
Yeah right, but it's a movie. I that's that's where
we're I'm now, I'm gonna go look it up after this.
All right, guys, the last NBA game has wrapped up,
and it was fun all the way through. It was
close between the Timberwoos and the Warriors. Steph Curry dropped
thirty nine points, but Minnesota pulled away in like the
final minute. They won it one twenty seven to one
twenty Rudy Gobert with the double double twenty four points

(15:43):
and fourteen rebounds. Donovan Mitchell was the one who had
forty eight points. Earlier today. Twenty four of them came
in the fourth quarter, and the Cavaliers rallied past the
Whizzards one thirty to one. Twenty six. Mavericks pulled away
in the fourth quarter to defeat the Nets one nineteen
to one.

Fifteen.

Speaker 5 (16:04):
Jalen Johnson recorded his third straight triple double. He had
nineteen points, eleven rebounds, and eleven assists.

Speaker 8 (16:11):
Other NBA news, I'm not dying, I'm good.

Speaker 5 (16:13):
Spurce center Victor Wamanyama is expected to return from his
calf injury to play against the Thunder in the semi
final of the NBA Cup in Las Vegas, but he's
expected to play limited minutes. When it comes to the NHL,
there were two games they wrapped up. Blues top the
Blackhawks three to two and the Mammoth outscored the Kraken
five to three. And if l news, the Raiders are
gonna start can you pick it our quarterback against the
Eagles as Gino Smith has a shoulder injury. The Jets

(16:35):
are gonna turn to rookie Brady Cook to start at
quarterback against the Jaguars. Tyrod Taylor to Rod Taylor, However,
he goes By and Justin Fields have been ruled out
with injuries. The Colts have not publicly named a starting
quarterback for Week fifteen against the Seahawks. Bengals wide receiver
T Higgins he's out for Week fifteen against the Ravens
because of his concussion, but Cowboys wide receiver CD Lamb
he cleared concussion protocols, so he's gonna play against the

(16:56):
Vikings on Sunday night.

Speaker 1 (17:35):
Friday continues as we preview the game of the week
that depending on what quarterback plays, the other team might
win by twenty or thirty.

Speaker 2 (17:44):
That's next. Jason to Mike, you're listening to Fox Sports
Radio Radio.

Speaker 1 (17:53):
Hello, welcome inside, Happy Friday, Jason Smith.

Speaker 2 (17:57):
Yes, it is Bill Belichick here, you're in the off season.

Speaker 1 (17:59):
All I hate that song The Jason Smith Show with
my bass friend Mike harmon Hobo. For over forty years,
Tirak has been helping customers find the right tires for how,
what and where they drive. Shipped fast and free, backed
by free Road, has a protection with convenient installation options
like mobile tire installation tireraq dot com. He is the
way tire buying should be. Well, here we are on

(18:22):
a Friday. We're hours away from the Heisman Trophy. Maybe
maybe we know who's gonna win after we what we
found out tonight. Maybe we got another crazy day with
Sharon more But look this is and I look, I'm
I don't want to say I am luke warm on
this because you know, I don't know that the Jets

(18:45):
can get him, but I don't know how excited I
am about the Jets if they got him. But look,
Fernanda Mendoza is likely going to walk away with the
Heisman Trophy tomorrow. Probably won't be a close vote, but
not going to be a runaway tonight. He is now
even more favored to win where he takes home the
Maxwell and Davey O'Brien awards. Looks he's going to wind

(19:07):
up winning. And we talked about it last week basically,
whoever had the big week conference championship week, that's gonna
be your Heisman Trophy winner because it's not a stat year.

Speaker 2 (19:15):
It's not a.

Speaker 1 (19:16):
Joe Burrow accounted for seventy touchdowns like this is well,
I mean, you didn't even have a big stat to
finish it off. Just get the W and move on,
succeed and proceed, right, I mean it's not and it's
not like Mendoz or any of the quarterbacks are light
in the world on fire for the NFL Draft. But yeah, okay,
he's gonna win the Heisman and he should thirty three
touchdowns to lead all FBS. Think about that for a second,

(19:37):
thirty three touchdowns. Like, that's a number that in the
early two thousand it's like, wow, man, thirty Now it's
like thirty three, that's it.

Speaker 2 (19:45):
Thirty three touchdowns what he threw for It.

Speaker 1 (19:47):
Isn't that like, but but he's got like twenty rushing touchdowns.

Speaker 2 (19:50):
Right, Oh no, we don't. Oh okay, oh, thirty three
down Okay, It's it's not a stat year.

Speaker 1 (19:55):
This is one of those years where you know, I
compare it to it's it's all like and I'm going
back to the mid two thousands when Troy Smith won
quarterback at Ohio State. Right, Ohio State was undefeated. He
was their quarterback all season. He was a great leader.
He led them into the you know, into the playoffs,
and it was one of those Hey, he was the

(20:17):
quarterback on the best team. He's gonna win the Heisman Trophy.
That's kind of how I feel like Fanana Mendoza. Over
the course of the season, Indiana has proven themselves to
be the best team in the country, beating Ohio State
last week, clearly only undefeated team left. Fanana Mendoza has
been pretty good and he's the quarterback. I think it's
pretty simple. That's pretty easy math to say, Fana Mendoza
Heisman Trophy.

Speaker 4 (20:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (20:38):
What's been the sad part of it though, is all
week long, it becomes the look at these are not
even comparable. And here's some of these great resumes you
mentioned Burrow, go back to some of the great individual
seasons that we've had through the years. Go back to
the heroics of Tbow or Cam Newton's ridiculous numbers, like, okay,
that's not this year. Okay, it's a different it's a

(20:59):
different landscape where we've got talent spread out all over
these teams and with nil and all of these opportunities.
It's just a different world. What I think is cool
was in the final Final four is you got four
guys who were far off the map as far as
the Heisman balloting and early projections when we got into

(21:21):
the season. Right current betting odds is Mendoza's ninety two
percent implied probability that he wins. But you look at
coming into the season, arch Man and Cade Club, Nick Garrett,
Nussmayer got bench multiple times like just keep going on
down the line. You have all those guys and in
the end it's Mendoza, Pavia Love and saying none of
them were better than twenty to one, saying was twenty

(21:44):
to one, Love was fifty to one, Pavia was one
hundred and twenty five to one, and Mendoza was fifty
five to one in the open. So you just talk
about the run of a college landscape and where we're
at in the just a very different game. And we've
talked about it every week, watching it at the political theater.

(22:05):
That has been the playoff committee and the run through,
and this is just you know, the culmination of that.
Now for your Jets, we wait and see. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (22:15):
Look, here's the thing is that I'm I'm okay. After
seeing the quarterbacks play over the course of the past
few weeks, right coming into the season, after the first
three four weeks, I'm like, oh man, it's gonna Mendoza
could be Dante Moore, Ty Simpson is playing really well.
They're gonna have oh whoever needs a quarterback. You're gonna
be at the top of the draft. You're gonna be excited.
But nobody ever really took that next step. I feel

(22:38):
like we're kind of falling all over ourselves to try
to make Fernana Mendoza and to be look great college quarterback.

Speaker 2 (22:44):
Right, This is this two different things we're thinking about here.

Speaker 1 (22:46):
But part of the excitement is who's gonna jump to
that next level and be a great player? And yeah,
somebody will, right, Maybe it's Mendoza, maybe it's Dante Moore,
maybe it's Garrett nus Meyer.

Speaker 2 (22:55):
Who knows.

Speaker 1 (22:56):
But there's not that overall excitement of wow, what a
great quarterback class. And you see all evaluators saying, hey, man,
you're going to see NFL teams push their quarterback ships
to twenty twenty seven when it seems like it's going
to be a little bit better. I guarantee you if
Arch Manning came out this year, he'd be the number
one pick. Well, and that's where we're in the latest rumor, right,
that's where at if he came out, he'll be the
number one pick this year.

Speaker 2 (23:17):
Yeah, I mean he finished strong, finished well. And you
know you're talking about potentially teams like the Rams, right,
we talked about them a little bit with Joe Burrow.
Folks can find that full podcast yesterday. All the speculation,
you know, Matthew Stafford in his future and whatever else.
But when we're starting to look at at teams that
have an established quarterback. I wouldn't be surprised if with

(23:39):
a lot of these players that we're looking at here,
you got two different things going on at play. One,
if you're not going to get the first round valuation
and evaluation from these talent folks, as you're going towards
the draft, you're like, I can make how much in
nil money if I stick around or I move to
another school or whatever, because it's pretty good money, right.

(24:01):
The other side is that you have teams like the
Rams and maybe others that have a quarterback and again
the Stafford thing, we don't know longevity, he could walk
away tomorrow. Is the fact that you're looking at maybe
going back to more of the Packers model if you're
not sure right of, hey, let's get a guy in

(24:22):
the building before we need to and we bring him
along because how many teams have the break glass in
case of emergency? Was like, well, it's got to work
with this guy, and then they're terrible. It's like, all right,
how long do we run this out before we go
draft another guy and another one and another, Like it's
just that same thing year after year. And while folks
don't like Jordan you know, some folks still try to

(24:45):
go against what Jordan loves become like, I think he's
a lot better an option and a lot more efficient
in option than almost anything else you're running out there.
So it's that kind of thing with these quarterbacks moving forward,
is that maybe we get a little bit of a
landscape shift in the NFL as well in terms of
trying to get these guys straight in because a lot

(25:05):
of them only played one year as at high levels too, right,
and what have we seen with that time and again
in the NFL that don't work? No, right now, straight
from twelve or twelve games or fifteen games?

Speaker 4 (25:17):
Right?

Speaker 2 (25:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (25:18):
Bill Parcells would always say, I'm taking a guy with
three years and thirty starts. Those are the only guys
I'm not taking something with one year. Who's a one
year wonder that all of a sudden shows up and
is terrific. Now, certainly there are guys who are going
to break that mold. Joe Burrow certainly broke that mold,
and other other guys will do that. But overall, yeah,
it's it's a very developmental year quarterback, right. I Mean,

(25:38):
that's why I feel like it's been a tepid Heisman
race the entire season. I can remember how many conversations
have we had about the Heisman Trophy over the course
the last two and a half months.

Speaker 2 (25:47):
One we had any more than.

Speaker 1 (25:49):
A passing thought or a passing question with Pete Futec
on the Heisman Trophy, like it's it's like again, it's
a it's a two thousand and six Troy Smith. He's
a terrific leader, and he's the best quarterback on the
best team. And there's your Heisman trophy. Wather, that's not
he goes.

Speaker 2 (26:04):
I mean a little bit preseason, a little bit as
the stuff started chaotically for Arch Manning and a few others,
But otherwise, I mean, does the Heisman still have the
same juice that it once did? Right? It used to
be much must see TV. Then it became a three
hour TV show with a lot of interviews and cast
like I'll tune in in the final five minutes to
find out who they crown when the betting odds are close.

(26:27):
But in this particular case, I'm sure we'll get Mendoza
speech and he can't top what he did after the
Big Ten title game. Anyway, No, no, no matter what he'd
be tough. That's gonna be tough, ye right, he ain't
top in that minute and a half or whatever the
hell that was of excited utterances and alternating between a
hype man and religious talk. I mean, it was just
going back and forth. It's like, Wow, here's a lot

(26:48):
going on in this man's head. But he is jacked up,
and I'm there with him.

Speaker 1 (26:52):
Now competing with the Heisman trophy Tomorrow, I'm sure will
be whatever twist and turn we get from form Michigan
head coach Oron Moore, who appear in court today remotely
in a prison jumpsuit facing a felony and a couple
of misdemeanor chargers following his dismissal as Michigan head coach. Now,
with every day, a few more details get out, and

(27:12):
today we get a better example of the whole picture
where Sharon Moore and this staffer had a relationship going
on the last couple of years, according many reports, was
the worst kept secret in the athletic department. And when
it got close to being found out a couple of
weeks ago, Sharon Moore, who had somehow the woman he

(27:34):
was having an affair with, got a raise on her
annual salary from fifty grand a year to ninety grand
a year. Didn't get a bump, didn't get a promotion,
just say hey, you got more money. When this was
started to become a bigger story and unable to be
contained anymore, or it was going to break wide open,
he was advised to break off this relationship and not
have any contact with the staffer. He was advised to

(27:57):
not have any contact with her. He then decided to
fire her instead of transferring her elsewhere in the football program.
This is when she came forward to the school with
details of their affair. He was fired. He goes to
her house with a knife, He threatens to kill her,
and then watch and watch him kill himself. He drops
the knife, he runs out, The police catch him at

(28:19):
a church. And now this is this mess for Michigan,
as we said last night, just gets bigger and bigger.
You think this is bad, No, no, just wait twenty
four hours, and wait twenty four hours after that, and
after that after that. This is just the beginning, because
now we're going to get into who knew what when
with this affair. But the biggest thing that I take
away from this today and I scratch my head and
I go, you know, you see in movies, you see

(28:41):
characters that somehow juggle all kinds of balls in the
air at once, and they always seem to make the
right decision right, Like like I watched Jax Teller and
Sons of Anarchy, I'm going, nobody has more on his
plate in the not even the president has more on
the plate on his plate in a world in this guy?

Speaker 2 (28:57):
How does he do this? Right? How does he do this?

Speaker 1 (28:59):
And when you're doing things like here's Sharon Moore who
was married and he was carrying on an affair and
he's the head coach of Michigan. This is a dude
with a lot on his plate, man, right, But when
it goes on for a couple of years, obviously he's
able to do things. But the mistake that I can't
come back to, and I shake my head and go,
how do you think this was a good idea? When

(29:19):
you get advised to not work directly with her anymore? Now,
there's many things you could do at that point, right,
You can transfer, you can just say, hey, listen, we
shouldn't have contact anymore.

Speaker 2 (29:28):
It's getting too hot for us. Whatever it is, however it.

Speaker 1 (29:31):
Is, But you really think firing her was gonna end it?
Like you think you were that powerful that firing her
was gonna edit Like she wasn't gonna say, oh, okay,
you're gonna fire me.

Speaker 2 (29:41):
No, no, no, no, I'll fire you. How about that,
I gotta fire you? Rong, No, I'll fire you. Go
I'm gonna go to the school.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
And it's like, well, okay, did you really think fire
that was gonna be it?

Speaker 2 (29:52):
Like that was gonna she was gonna walk away and
go ah. We had some laughs. That's it. It's over.
What Yeah that was was that should not have been
a branch? How do you think? How did you think
that was gonna go that way? I read that.

Speaker 1 (30:06):
That's what baffles me the most about all of this
is that, after all that's going on and keeping all
these balls in the air, that's the decision he made that.
They're like, okay, we're gonna fight. I'm gonna fire you.
And that's when she goes to the school. Because I
was wondering, oh boy, when it turns out she went
to the school and told them about their affair, You're thinking, okay,
why what is this now? Now the situation could get

(30:27):
even more out of control. But then oh he was
gonna fire. Of course he's gonna go and say, oh no, no, no,
you think it nunhe of you just wait and see
what happens now you want to fire me from this job?
Like that? That's the one where I go, Wow, I
don't know how that decision was made.

Speaker 2 (30:39):
I really don't. What is it? The old hell hath
no fury. As for the forty thousand dollars raise, remember
Babe Ruth was once asked why he was making as
much as the president, and he said he had a
better year. So well, I think you can look at
Babe Ruth and see the home runs ago probably a
better year than the president. And and maybe maybe she
was looking at some metrics on and off the the

(31:00):
office that that may have have led to that. I
don't know happiness, quotionis and whatever else. But uh yeah,
in terms of that being the end game to this,
I we we questioned some of the rationality. You know,
the heart wants what it wants whatever else, and and
decision making complicated, as you say, you know, you got

(31:20):
a lot of things, and and as we've watched plenty
of uh what spy movies and crime movies and and
heist movies during our time together here at Fox Sports Radio.
That we could probably have our own letterboxed, uh subset
for what we've done. You and I've had all the
novels that you've read and and that I've listened to
you talk about. Uh that that we we've got every permutation.

(31:43):
It never ends with Hey, I can fire this person,
and it's gonna go, well, that's never been a plot
point in any of this stuff. And uh common sense, No,
no editor is gonna take that in from a writer
and go, Yeah, that's how it should end. No, they're
kicking back, going that's not gonna work.

Speaker 1 (32:00):
I mean, And in big business now, whenever there is
a situation that involves something like this, it is what
is the best thing to do?

Speaker 2 (32:07):
Do we do we go and fire them? Do we wait?

Speaker 1 (32:11):
Do we make sure we cross all our t's and
dot our i's be where we make that decision because
we don't know how litigious things are going to get? Right,
Let's look at what happened in front of the lawyers,
that's right, right.

Speaker 2 (32:21):
Look at what happens in sports now when you see
someone embroiled in a scandal.

Speaker 1 (32:25):
Uh and and you know what ESPN used to do this?
Uh really really they were, they were at the forefront
of this. Honestly, is it when something would happen and
if somebody did something that embarrassed the brand embarrassing. We've
seen it elsewhere as well. You know, we've seen in
a fox, We've seen in places. Right, So when the
decision is always okay, we could fire this person right away,
but then it's gonna get litigious, and then we're gonna

(32:47):
be dragged and it goes a big deal and it's
dragged into court and it's all these things. Or we
waited out and their contract ends and we don't hire
them again, and that's it and we move on and
it's and it's and it's just and it's way clean.
And that's kind of how things are done. Like you
you don't see like that's why companies have to take
so much care into what's going on. And you fire
someone because you don't know what that's gonna mean coming

(33:09):
back at you. What what is that gonna be there?
You fire someone, you open it up to all kinds
of lawsuits and who knows what's gonna be out there?

Speaker 2 (33:16):
What one person knows what it doesn't. It's a big unknown.

Speaker 1 (33:19):
So to make that decision to fire somebody when you
don't know how it's gonna go.

Speaker 2 (33:23):
I go, wow, that is that is?

Speaker 1 (33:25):
That is not That's not a page out of out
of any kind of business school I've ever been to.
That when you hey, when you want to fire somebody,
you gotta be damn sure that you have all your
your pages figured out and your your Tea's crossed and
your i's dotted before you.

Speaker 2 (33:39):
Want to make a move like that. That's a plausible
deniability up the top. But if this is the worst
kept secret, okay, now it's the who knows what?

Speaker 4 (33:48):
Where? How?

Speaker 2 (33:49):
When uh we talk about litigiousness, I mean they think
of it just in sports. The number of issues that
have been at all places a lot of times. See
as you say, let the clock run out, like we're
not getting into the legal eaese because discovery is a
patting gas. John Gruden right as excited as he is

(34:09):
to get a box a crap from school X and
do an unboxing like he's one of those little kids
with holiday toys. You're telling me he wouldn't rather have
been coaching. Now he may end up getting some massive
ass settlement and at all. But doesn't he always strike
you as a guy that would have rather been on
a sideline somewhere. Yeah, I think so. Right, So you know,

(34:31):
and just go on down the line that things come out.
I mean that the Kaepernick case, right, I mean, how
many of the NFL owners, like, we don't need anything
coming out of this, figure out what the settlement is
and you can debate how much ended up being paid
out in that and so many other cases across our
sporting landscape that have nothing to do with dalliances and

(34:55):
office romances. Those are plenty, and where we've got those
all across the landscape, plenty of minds have blown up
over the course of the years for those. But just
talk about just from the straight business part of it,
it still just goes back to pragmatism of all. Right,
let's see, while this is not grounded or hasn't festered

(35:16):
in rationality, at some point we need to be adults
and come to an endgame. Uh, you know which is
bet and for this you know his family, friends, you
know everybody associated, right, the wife and kids, Uh, and
the how this all came to a head, Like you're
you're just if you feel terrible for all of it,

(35:37):
but you know, the firing was the the step if
you avoided that, I mean settlements and agreements and separation
termination however you want to want to come to it.
This was just not the way to try to end
multiple years. I mean, this wasn't a one one or two, uh,

(35:58):
you know, meet up kind of things. This is a
long standing thing according to the latest reports. So it's hey,
it's a mess.

Speaker 2 (38:01):
The Hall of Fame. He is Jason Cole what's happening?

Speaker 4 (38:05):
Man. I was thinking about this earlier. I haven't been
on the show in a while when drinking heavily beforehand,
in a while, in a while, I need in a while?

Speaker 2 (38:25):
Okay, how long it's a while?

Speaker 4 (38:28):
Because a while?

Speaker 2 (38:30):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (38:30):
So immediately now it's like, okay, how far back do
we have to go?

Speaker 4 (38:33):
And it's months not years?

Speaker 2 (38:36):
That's okay, Oh it's months.

Speaker 4 (38:38):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (38:38):
I was born thinking when you preface it like that,
how's your Friday, buddy, and you're saying you and you're
saying you want to do that in the future is
what you're saying.

Speaker 4 (38:48):
Well, I was thinking that might help.

Speaker 10 (38:51):
So you know, I got to get blasted to go
on to talk with hert Smith and harton these guys.
My goodness, we're going to talk about cowboy b and
all kinds of stuff, and so the first time I would.

Speaker 4 (39:02):
Have heard that, I haven't let loose in a while.
So yeah, just thinking about that.

Speaker 7 (39:10):
Not because it was a specific topic. I just wanted
to throw out.

Speaker 4 (39:15):
Okay, you know, thinking about just making it out there. Yeah,
maybe go go full on Saucer Brooks Martin.

Speaker 2 (39:25):
The okay, all right, he's roasting everyone all right.

Speaker 1 (39:29):
So so let's because this is this is the story
I've been waiting to ask you about all week because
I know I'm going to ask you and your response
is going to be a left.

Speaker 4 (39:42):
Words.

Speaker 2 (39:43):
Okay, what the hell exactly?

Speaker 1 (39:47):
What what are we going to get from Philip Rivers
if he plays on Sunday.

Speaker 4 (39:57):
Well, there's a Bolo tie in our future?

Speaker 7 (39:58):
Isn't there something that it might be?

Speaker 2 (40:01):
There could be there could be some sort of endorsement
deal if he has a big game.

Speaker 4 (40:04):
Sure, yeah, wow, I hope we don't get you know,
like crippling injuries. But no, I love Philip. You know,
I'm this is fun. You know, he's he's put off
the Hall of Fame thing for five years and you know,

(40:27):
in all likelihood because they're they're there. Once he gets activated,
he then they're taking him off the ballot and uh
for this year, and they're probably have a revote because
I think he's probably there's a good chance he would
make the top fifteen this year if if he if

(40:47):
he does, you know, if he's still considered eligible. So
we're going to have a problem with that if he's
if they went like.

Speaker 1 (40:54):
If he didn't play and he was up this year
for the first time, Like, how close is it actually getting?

Speaker 7 (40:58):
I mean, I think he's well, he's in the top fifteen,
but we you.

Speaker 4 (41:02):
Know, we've talked about the mass part of it, and
the mass part of it complicates it a lot. I
don't think he's a first ballot guy, and especially not
this year where you have Breeze and Fitzgerald and Witten
and Gore and then you have holdovers like Anda and.

Speaker 7 (41:20):
Keikley and even Eli, Like I have.

Speaker 4 (41:23):
A hard time between them trying to figure out the
Eli Rivers. I think Rivers was a better player, But Eli,
did you know the two Super Bowls weigh pretty heavily, right,
You kind of have to think this one through. Which
way is that going to go? But I thought he
would he would be well done the list, but he
would he would gain momentum. Now like all of that's

(41:45):
gone and we put it off for another five years
and don't even think about it for five years, which
I don't. Really doesn't really bother me that way either,
because there's plent me a good good guys to select,
you know, it's and they're not just very good, but
they're fall of famers. Just to make sure we understand that.

(42:10):
And so anyways.

Speaker 7 (42:12):
I mean, he's close, but under.

Speaker 4 (42:14):
The current math rules, which I don't think are going
to last much longer. But that's my guess. I think
it's gonna it would take a while. You know, he's
the kind of guy who's probably going to have to
wait a minimum of three to four years. And that's
even if they reinstate the old gold pattern. I think
even into those rules, he'd probably have to wait a

(42:34):
little while.

Speaker 2 (42:35):
See. I like the addition in the Twitter verse of
Kurt Banker, former quarterback for the Packers and Journeyman. He goes, hey,
if he gets activated, it helps reset his health benefits
for a bit.

Speaker 4 (42:50):
That's important.

Speaker 7 (42:51):
That's an important equation too.

Speaker 2 (42:53):
Especially when when you got a bunch of kids and
you know, grandkids and everybody that's you know, you got
to look after.

Speaker 7 (42:58):
What does he have for five kids or something like that.

Speaker 4 (43:02):
You know, I'll take you. But yeah, yeah, that's for
a woman, a lot of kids, she's been working hard.
I got to give her a lot of cred. She
deserts me in the Hall of Fame, Well he gets
to go there.

Speaker 1 (43:14):
He gets to go play football for a few weeks
while she's got all the kids at all, because they.

Speaker 2 (43:18):
Do have a two year old or something at home,
don't they. I mean they don't.

Speaker 4 (43:21):
I don't. I don't even know, like I've lost track
of it at this point in time, but like they've
got eleven twelve kids and their oldest is Broldly in
college he graduated. I don't know, it's a long time.

Speaker 2 (43:36):
So yeah, he's a grandpa, all right, Ja Cole. Does
Joe Burrow hate football or does he just hate the Bengals?

Speaker 4 (43:43):
What say? That? Asked that question again?

Speaker 2 (43:46):
Well from his Wednesday presser and talking about joy and
whatever else. Was it just the sadness of turning twenty nine?
Or is this guy starting to ask for his release
from the prison that is the Cincinnati Bengals.

Speaker 4 (44:00):
This doesn't it always end this way with Cincinnati players,
and at least the good ones, like they recognize that
they're in prison. Yeah, you're in.

Speaker 7 (44:13):
There's more dangerous.

Speaker 4 (44:15):
The warden from shot Tank or Mike Brappans.

Speaker 2 (44:21):
Wow, now there's a comparison you didn't think you'd get.

Speaker 3 (44:25):
On a Friday, Oh my god.

Speaker 1 (44:28):
Bob Gunton just making sure that they have some pie
she can't bake for Blank here you goes Get that
Bob Gunton?

Speaker 4 (44:37):
Is that the art? Is that the act? Yeah? Yeah?
He was. He was God, he was great in that role.

Speaker 7 (44:42):
He was awesome. And he's so easy, he's.

Speaker 4 (44:45):
So evil in just such a perfect way. And when
he throws the cigarette down and just stamps it and
looks up and just that there's there's there are some
moments in that movie where he really almost feels that movie.

Speaker 1 (45:00):
Not tomorrow, not after breakfast, Now we're gonna find.

Speaker 4 (45:05):
Him now, Now.

Speaker 2 (45:09):
You're gonna talk to Joe Burrow.

Speaker 1 (45:10):
Now, not tomorrow, not after breakfast, but after now, after
that press.

Speaker 7 (45:15):
Conference, throwing the bubbles him.

Speaker 2 (45:23):
Where it is? Get that Ai work in there?

Speaker 1 (45:25):
Ja Cole that one he's got like the poster of
Jamar Chase up on the wall, going, let's ask Jamar
Chase if he knows anything?

Speaker 2 (45:33):
And he throws the bubble through breaks to what do
you think?

Speaker 3 (45:37):
What do you think?

Speaker 7 (45:38):
Sweet cheet? Looking at the escapes is the only way
out of the locker room.

Speaker 4 (45:54):
Of the locker room.

Speaker 1 (45:57):
He's got he's got his he's got his jersey and
his and his uniform, like in the bag tied to
his foot as he's crawling from.

Speaker 4 (46:06):
A little umble wall across the field, trusting. He spent
twenty years just ending his pocket.

Speaker 7 (46:23):
To borrow it to burrow in frame.

Speaker 3 (46:32):
This is so great.

Speaker 1 (46:33):
He gets on into the rain and he takes off
his he takes off his Bengals jersey and it's a
Dolphins jersey.

Speaker 7 (46:43):
He trossed the river. He's swam across the Ohio River.

Speaker 4 (46:47):
And he saw on the Kentucky's side.

Speaker 7 (46:51):
Yeah, he just rips it off.

Speaker 4 (46:54):
This is great. Oh, this is something. This if they
