You are listening to The Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
It's our two on this Friday. It's a meat Friday,
sprinkled in with some seafood as well. Oysters courtesy of
dug in North Carolina, Carolina Gold oysters, reverse seared ribbas, crabcakes,
bacon wrapped scallomps. Who is it better than we do?
No body, buddy. Since losing to Northern Illinois September seventh,
(00:30):
Notre Dame has won thirteen games in a row, including
six wins over ranked teams. The Irish have won three
straight games against top ten teams. They beat Indiana when
Indiana was ninth, Georgia when Georgia was second, and then
Penn State. Last night. Penn State was the fifth ranked
team in the country.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
Wow stand a day, Stanleaaday, Stantata Day, Stannata Day.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
This is the stant of the day. Statam to day
rochyr Bi Panini America. The official trading cards of The
Dan Patrick Show. Good morning, if you're watching on peacock,
Thank you for allowing us into your homes and radio
affiliates around the country. iHeartRadio Fox Sports Radio. Thank you

(01:18):
you happen to listen to this program. Gang's all here,
Minister of Humor. Fritzi is here, got his Broncos gear,
some Notre Dame gear as well, Seaton, Marv Paully and
yours truly. But you know, you go back to that game,
that loss at home against Northern Illinois, and I'm sure
the Northern Illinois fans are loving the fact they want
(01:38):
Notre Dame. I'm going a guest to win a national title.
So then you could say, yeah, we beat the national champs.
You've got Ohio State and Texas coming up tonight, that'll
be in the Cotton Bowl. The weather would be an issue.
Weather will be an issue, maybe getting to the game.
Obviously they're playing it indoors. But Ohio State is favored
by six, and according to DraftKings, Ohio State is still
(02:01):
the big favorite to win the national title. Even if
it's Ohio State versus Notre Dame, Ohio State would be
favored in that matchup, all right, eight seven to seven
to three. DP show email address DP at Danpatrick dot com,

sent me a fill in the blank. WHOA wow? This
is an emergency fill in the blank.
Speaker 4 (02:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (02:24):
I figure with the coaching openings, they'll be filled in
next week. Okay, I doubt anything happens this weekend, but
I'd like to get everyone here on record, which is
what we do.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Okay. Ben Johnson will be the head coach of the
blank Todd.
Speaker 5 (02:39):
The Jacksonville Jaguars.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
See no Connor the New England Patriots. Ooh, I saw
where Aaron Glenn, the defensive coordinated with the lines, turned
down the opportunity to interview. Thanks, because he's going to
be coaching the Jets. Dan, Yeah, well, he knows he's
not coaching the Patriots. I think he knows that that's
(03:02):
for sure, all right. Marvin ben Johnson will be the
head coach of the Chicago Bears. Okay, Bear's apologist, Pauli.
Ben Johnson will be the head coach of the Patriots.
Speaker 5 (03:16):
Okay, I don't think he wants to coach in that
division against his old team. And Drake May looks awesome.
A lot of cap room.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Didn't they have caproom this year? They didn't spend the
money waiting the strike. Okay, Ben Johnson won't be a
head coach next year.
Speaker 5 (03:44):
Scalding.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Mike Vrabel will be the head coach of the blank Todd.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
I guess I'm buying into it.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
New England Patriots.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
All right, seat O'Connor, Oh the read You think Tom
Brady's going to be able to steer him to Vegas?
By the way, when I said Antonio Pierce was going
to get fired at the beginning of the week, I
thought he would. The GM got fired yesterday, Tom Tellusco.
(04:13):
Can you imagine you're Tom Telesco and let's say you
go to work and all of a sudden, everybody's gathering
around and you're going to talk about the coaching surge.
All of a sudden, you know, he comes in and
gets ready to sit down, and then Mark Davis goes
not so fast him. This is just for the current
coaching staff. His swipe card doesn't work. What is he thinking?
(04:35):
Knowing Antonio Pierce gets fired he's only been there one year,
and then you're going to get fired once again. This
is Tom Brady. This is Tom Brady until I'm told otherwise.
It feels like Tom's running this show right now. I'm
going to get you now unofficially. By the way, you
(04:56):
can't have a conflict of interest where you have the
lead play by player, lead color analyst for your Super
Bowl team with Fox being involved in a coaching search
or drafting or you know, picking a GM that could
never happen. Didn't this happen in baseball? Wasn't there a
conflict of interest in was it baseball? Oh? Jessica Mendoza
(05:21):
of ESPN, she was an analyst for Sunday Night Baseball,
She was an advisor in spring training. I think to
the Mets and then they go, you got to get up,
give up that job. Conflict of vers. Here's Tom who's
a minority owner, and he's you know, he's the number
one team, the Fox team that's going to be calling
(05:42):
the Super Bowl. I'd say that's a little bit of
conflict of interest there, Yes, Pom.
Speaker 5 (05:47):
Like Tom has no title. You walk into he has
an office at the Raiders facility just says Tom Brady,
nothing under it. His business card just says Tom Brady, Raiders,
no title.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
AGM or president. Yeah, yeah, I would say that. Well, Well,
once again, if I'm Mark Davis, I bring in Tom Brady.
It'd be crazy not to say to Tom, give me
everything you think we should do. I think this is
a good thing, the fact that Brady reportedly reached out
to Bill Belichick, and then everybody's talking about the same
(06:16):
thing that as of June. First, the buyout for Bill
Belichick is a million dollars. Prior to that, it's ten million. Well,
the reason is because you know you're going to do
all your recruiting nil, all of that. You know, transfer
portal you're going to get to June. You have to
have a coach in place in the NFL and certainly
in college. But you know, the reaction from those at
(06:38):
North Carolina are this is a bogus report that Bill
Belichick is not going to take a job in the
NFL this year. Okay, here we go. Pete Carroll will
be the head coach of the Blank. Todd gum chewing
in Chicago, dub Bears, take Pete Carroll. Okay, seat O'Connor.
(07:02):
Pete Carroll the head coach of the Blank. Nowhere's ville,
no okaye players. Okay, so he's still a teacher at
USC Marvin the Innermural flag football, Okay, all right, all right, Pauli.
Pete Carroll will be the head coach of the.
Speaker 5 (07:24):
If the Bears go over too. It's Pete Carroll time.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
What about Jacksonville? Kind of a rando there.
Speaker 5 (07:32):
At State USC. Really, I'd rather be an adjunct at
USC than coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Just for giggles, they'll say Pete Carroll will be the
next head coach of the Jags, And I have no
information on this. Just let you know. I don't know
if he can surf down there like he I think
he still lives in Manhattan Beach, So give him a
nice beach community there and I think he'll be Okay.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
Yes, time, nobody picked Jets, Raiders, Saints, no one, no one?
Speaker 2 (08:00):
What do we have any thoughts on who's going to
those teams? Well that wasn't part of the blank no.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
But just as part two of like you see the Jets,
you have any good feeling on the Jets Raiders?
Speaker 2 (08:09):
All right? All right, then we'll do that. The next
head coach of the New York Jets will be Blank
Todd Aaron Glenn. Okay, are you good?
Speaker 6 (08:18):
Now?
Speaker 2 (08:20):
The next head coach of the New Orleans Saints will
be yea or the Raiders.
Speaker 6 (08:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (08:30):
I was just throwing it out to the room. I
didn't have specific answers. Oh, you put me on the spot.
Aaron Glenn's got a history of the Jets, I said,
Aaron Blin.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
But but it is part of the game, the fill
in the blank. I'm going to suggest that. Yes, So
if I say the next head coach of the Saints
will be blank, you have an answer until you don't, Okay.
Speaker 5 (08:47):
Vance, Joseph.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
I mean to be fair.
Speaker 7 (08:49):
I just said that Aaron Glenn was going to be
the Jets head coach and offered that up Todd, So
you kind of stole.
Speaker 8 (08:56):
I've been known to do that once in a while.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Yeah, just saying it's called sampling. A simple Joe Brady
will be the oh oh oh Joe Brady Okay, because
he was at LSU and then he was what in Buffalo.
Let's go right across the street.
Speaker 5 (09:13):
Remember at LSU he had that weird title of passing
game coordinator, not offensive coordinator, like a separate title.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Well, he was really good as the passing coordinator. It
helps if the Saints could have a transfer portal from
LSU and get those wide receivers to come there.
Speaker 5 (09:31):
Yes, Tom, what's the future for Spags and Monken?
Speaker 1 (09:33):
We like to talk about those guys and they getting
an up coming at coaching gigs.
Speaker 6 (09:37):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
Spags got a couple of interviews. I guess I don't
know about Todd Munkin. I'd have to ask Kirk Kurtis
Herbie loves Todd Munkin. Lou lou An Roumo.
Speaker 5 (09:51):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Yeah. And when you think about it, when you when
you are listening to games, there's certain times where there's
certain assistant coaches or coordinators who are always acknowledged, always
in a positive way. Let's see what Spags dials up
for the Chiefs. Yes, Marvin.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
When I was a kid, the first name I heard
that wasn't a head coach was North Turner.
Speaker 5 (10:14):
Yeah, he was always up to see what is going
to draw.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
Buddy Ryan with the Bears, see what he's going to
dial up here? Yeah, Paul.
Speaker 5 (10:23):
A couple of years ago when Clemson was rolling, you know,
Brent Ventable.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
Brent Vnable, he was.
Speaker 5 (10:29):
Brent Vennables dialing up a blitz. I heard that more
in my house and my kids' names.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Pet Hervey, he was always dialing something up there. And
Bred Vennable's.
Speaker 5 (10:42):
Vaunted Brent Bennables defense not just the Clemsony.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Oh last hour, I stumbled upon a question and didn't
have an answer to it. The most valuable caller We
normally do this. I didn't acknowledge one person as the
most valuable caller. I would probably I would say James
in Virginia because the following he stayed with the commanders
(11:07):
through how many years, seven or eight years? He would
always hail you know, he was always saying something nice
about the commanders when the commanders weren't very good, and
he stayed with it. Uh, what does he work for? Ys?
Speaker 6 (11:23):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (11:25):
He works for UPS. Yeah, okay, yeah, I didn't know
if it was FedEx or whatever. So he'd listen to
those delivery companies. Yeah, he's delivering something to somebody. And
I would acknowledge that he would be the most valuable caller.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Now.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
I did acknowledge also that Bob and Montana kind of
tried to buy the vote. He sent me some bourbon,
which is fun. I mean, I can be bod, but
he sent some bourbon. He sent some other you know,
Elvis trinkets, and uh, and Bob and Montana joins us
right now?
Speaker 6 (11:56):
Hi, Bob, oh, hey, TP, how about that for good timing.
I'm actually just calling you, since you're a fellow Elvis fan.
I'm calling for my annual report live from Graceland for
Elvis's ninetieth birthday. So it's it's been a great week
down here, full of concerts, trivia contest. The only big
news today is there's eight inches of new snow and
(12:17):
everything here, so it's making the roads a bit of
a mess. But hey, maybe if I didn't win the
if I didn't win MVC, that's fine. A James of Virginia.
He's a great caller. And I still hope you enjoyed
the bourbon and the Elvis bourbon, the boots and everything.
So and I appreciate the shout out and appreciate all
you did for my life last year, bringing me down
(12:39):
to Vegas with you and doing the big Elvis thing
and hanging out with our boxer shorts backstage. It was
a great time.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Are you able to go wherever you want to when
you go to Graceland? Can you go to the jungle room?
Can you go to the bathroom where Elvis dne Oh?
Speaker 6 (12:56):
No, So you can't go upstairs. So I tell people
that's that Elvis still up there, because you're not allowed
upside of anything but everything else. You can go through
them and there's like there's like tour guide people there
to make sure you don't like, you know, damage anything
or whatever. There's a person in every single room, but
there's a whole complex across the street with cars and
planes and clothes and just everything you can even think of.
(13:17):
So it's just it's just a wonderful place to be here.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
So all right, we'll save travels bomb and uh thanks
keep the cards and letters coming there. We appreciate that.
Nick in California, Hi, Nick, what's on your mind?
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Be Dan?
Speaker 8 (13:31):
Good morning? Dennett's good. Let me hear you man.
Speaker 6 (13:34):
Let's go Broncos.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Let's go Broncos.
Speaker 8 (13:40):
There we go, say with I got a question for you.
I've heard you say on the show a few times.
Rookie of the Year Jade and Daniels. There's got to
be an argument. Bo Knicks has been phenomenal and they're
both in the playoffs. I know Brock Dollars has been awesome.
Maybe next poll question, Who's Rookie is Year? I don't
(14:01):
know who the fourth candidate would be, but I know
between bar Knicks and Jamee Daniels, it's it's almost tied.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
There your thoughts, well, I said Jade and Daniels should
be in the MVP conversation from the standpoint of what
he meant to a franchise, a franchise that was an embarrassment.
They found their quarterback. I you know, I think Dan's
done a very good job as the head coach. Like
they had to get rid of Dan Snyder. They had
(14:28):
to get rid of that whatever that was, and they
become They're relevant, They're in the playoffs, and I think
that his you know, being a dual threat. Bow Knicks
played great. He did, but I'm it's weird. I'm less
surprised that bow Knicks played well with Sean Payton than
(14:50):
I am. You know, Jade and Daniels. I just didn't
know with that team. Now. I thought that they were
going to be one of those surprise teams this year
along with the Falcons. They were better than I thought
they were, and he seemed he didn't seem like a rookie.
Brock Bauer is going to be first team All Pro.
He's great and he did it with bad quarterback play
as well. He had a record setting season. Look, I
(15:13):
don't have any say in any of this. I don't
vote on any of these. It doesn't matter to me.
I'm just saying if you said, what's my opinion, I
would say Jaden Daniels because I think he is an
MVP candidate as opposed to the others who just had
really good rookie seasons. More phone calls coming up. Bill
Cower will join us in an hour from now, and
(15:35):
coming up next to the head coach of Arizona State,

to the Arizona State head football coach. Kenny Dillingham. Had
(17:08):
an unbelievable season, took Texas to a couple overtimes before
being bounced from the postseason. Kenny, thanks for joining us.
How many times have you watched that game?
Speaker 3 (17:19):
Too many? Way, way too many? Probably ten twelve times?
Speaker 2 (17:24):
But what are you trying to get out of that
when you watch?
Speaker 3 (17:28):
To be honest, just what tips did they have to
give their players an advantage? And if we ever played
them again, what could we do to give our players
an advantage? I mean nothing more or less than that.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Do you watch alone?
Speaker 3 (17:41):
I do?
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Do you drink beers when you're want? I mean, you know,
can you have a little bit of fun when you're
watching this coach?
Speaker 3 (17:51):
Sometimes? Usually when you win, you do that. When you lose,
you try to drown in the sorrows.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
But what is it that you could have done? If
I say, you get one mulligan? What would you have
done differently?
Speaker 3 (18:03):
I would have had not called a timeout on the
fourth and one in overtime. I would have let the
play eat and it would have converted, and I would
have had a time out to say for the fourth
and twelve when yours checked out of it out into
a cover zero beater.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
I thought you were going to say something about the targeting.
No call there.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
I can't control that.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
How painful is that to watch? Because I thought it
was you could have picked a penalty either defenseless receiver
or you could have done targeting and they gave you
neither of those. What do you see when you see
that play now over and over?
Speaker 3 (18:47):
I think I see the same thing that everybody sees.
H That's just it is what it is. Though, that's sport.
There's missed calls, there's calls all There's probably five of
their calls in the game that nobody talks about that
probably could have gone against us. So I don't like
to use those moments as excuses, even though they're the
big moments and they're what everybody should talk about, because
(19:08):
people only talk about the big plays, the big moments,
the big no calls, the big mate calls, whatever it is.
But there's a lot of things I could have done
better to help our football team.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
If Ryan Day reached out to you today and said, Hey,
got any tips for me facing Texas, what would you
tell him?
Speaker 3 (19:26):
Yeah, it's on They're they're very physical on the perimeter. Uh,
They're they're really good tacklers, and I think that's a
great skill. I think it's one thing you see on tape,
but like when you see it live, the size and
the tackling ability. Uh, it's different. Then I would say
you have to have an ability to check when quen
yours checks. You can't let queners check Texas and THEO
(19:48):
good football plays and uh and not change the look.
So you better create a mechanism defensively to check when
he checks.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
Okay, explain how you then can counteract when yours is
going to check and change to play. Then what is
your job?
Speaker 3 (20:03):
So you could have like a dual call. So basically
you say we're going to run field blitz and we're
going to run cover four and if the quarterback checks,
then we're going to change from our field blitz call
to automatically changing to cover four. So he made a
check based off of field blitz and he wants the
perfect play versus that we're now going to a complimentary call.
(20:27):
So having a way just like offenses have a way
to when you hear kill kill and the quarterbacks say
that he's changing calls based off the look. Same thing
for a defense.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
But the fourth and thirteen touchdown did he check out
of something?
Speaker 3 (20:42):
He did? He checked out of a call in which
we felt really good about what we were doing into
a call later on the clock. And you know he
didn't unbelievable check and then they executed really well.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
What did you think of the Notre Dame Penn Stake
game game.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
I think Marcus Freeman's an absolute stud of a human being.
I've been going versus Ham since I was at Florida
State when he was the defensive coordinator and he was
a phenomenal coach then, and I think the way he
leads people, I think you can see his guys play
really hard.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Do you have a clock management guy like Marcus Freeman
has a guy right next to him? Do you have
a guy whose only job is to give you clock management?
Speaker 3 (21:23):
I did. It was Matt Butterfield. He just took the
full time special teams coordinator job though elsewhere, so I'm hiring.
So if you ever want to hang it out clock
management guy, let me know.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
I like the colors and I like the climate. I
just don't know what it pays.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
Not what you mean, I'll tell you.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
He's the Arizona State head coach, Ken Dillingham joining us
on the program. I'm going to ask Bill Kauer about this.
We see this with Dan Campbell other coaches. They create
a culture. It feels like you're creating a culture, but
I don't know how you go about creating that culture.
Speaker 3 (22:02):
Yeah. I think for us, we pick our players, right,
we recruit our players. So for us, it's recruiting guys
that are like minded. You know, our three pillars of
our program are be a good person. It's very simple
to be a good person, make good decisions. It's very
simple to make good decisions, and then have more fun,
working harder than anybody in the country. So what is
(22:22):
our culture? We better recruit to people that when they
walk around the building, they have a smile on their face,
they're excited to be here, they crack a joke. You know,
they have personality because I really think when you get
people around you that personality, you wake up and you
may have a down day and that person is going
to lift you higher than you would have been. And
that's the culture we're trying to create.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
First time you see cam Skataboo, you your response is
your reaction is what.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
Man this had all those yards? You know he's an underdog.
There's a reason for it. But what he's done to
change his body and to change who he is. Just
as a physical specimen, he's the strongest he's ever been.
Least body that he's ever had, fastest has ever been.
Mindset's better than it's ever been. He went from a
(23:09):
really really good football player to somebody who was top
five in the Heisman vote, and I think he should
have been higher.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
But so that confidence of just kind of loading him
up and just say go like he's gonna he knows
he's gonna get We talked to him after the loss
and he said, look, I know I'm gonna get hurt.
I know it's going to hurt, but I'm going to
hurt you as well. Like that kind of physicality. And
he said, Marshawn Lynch is sort of, you know, one
of his idols or who he runs like.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
Yeah, I think Scott just has that in mindset. He
gets into he's the nicest kid off the field, super intelligent.
People think his play style, oh he's crazy. Scott is
incredibly intelligent, high high IQ. And for him to flip
a switch into this like no way anybody can stop
(23:57):
me mode? And does that mean he's always not going
to be stopped. No, Nobody in the history of sports
ever been invincible, But it means he believes it so
much that he's going to make plays that people are like,
what just happened? And every day for the last seven
hundred days or whatever, seven hundred and eighty days I've
coached him, he has done something at practice or in
a game that I'm like, what just happened? That is incredible.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
How often do you go to an opposing team stadium
and people question if you really are the head coach
at Arizona State?
Speaker 1 (24:28):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (24:29):
The way easier question? How often do I does that
not happen? I mean I look twelve, so it's you know,
when I walk around, it's just part of it. You know,
I've been young my whole life, though I started coaching
at seventeen, so I'm very used to the fact. I mean,
I get stopped trying to walk into the field before
the before the peach ball. They're like, you need credentials,
(24:50):
go back and get them, and I do it. You know,
at the end of the day, the people are doing
their jobs, so people don't really recognize me. I appreciate it.
I look young when I'm older, you know what I mean,
and people will be jealous. But right now, it's just
part of it.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
What do you expect to happen tonight? Between Texas and
Ohio State.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
I haven't watched enough Ohio State to give like a
really really good opinion. I know Texas is going to
be really good on defense. I know they're not going
to give up big plays. So I think the key
to Ohio State, I can. You think the key to
the game is how do you stop Ohio State and
one of the best wide receivers in college football in
(25:31):
a long time. And you can't just double team them
because Ohio State's too good to do that. So what
are you doing to get the quarterback to think he's
double teamed, move his eyes off of him, but him
really be singled up? And I think that's one of
the hidden things in the game, is the deception of
him being doubled. Can you do that enough to single
(25:51):
him up and get your hats elsewhere? For Texas and
if they can, you know, I think they're both really
good football teams.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
By the way, when we had cam on he said
he checked out of that that halfback option that I
think he said. Your quarterback said he was banged up,
don't throw me the football, and so he changed the play.
Did you know that?
Speaker 3 (26:14):
Yeah? I did. I saw it live and in person
baby and on fourthan too in the fourth quarter, So
that was exciting. But he's the same dude that punted
for US last year and checked out of a punt
versus USC and did this and signaled a wide out
to run a slam and threw it to him for
(26:34):
a first down. Same dude that caught a toss, scrambled
backward ninety seven yards, realized he was going to lose
yards and threw the ball away. His football IQ and
his savviness is unbelievable for his style of plug.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
You strike me as a pregame speech guy. Really, yeah, I.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
Actually don't give pregame speeches. Our players give pregame speeches.
This is a player run program. Our players give the
free game. Our players make the decisions. I am literally
a surrogate between the leadership council and the players, and
my job is to help the leadership council make the
best decisions for the football team. But I do not
(27:13):
run the show here. Our players run the show. I
just help them get get to the best decisions. In
my opinion, well.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
Like, is there a cutoff point of what they're allowed
to do? And say, like, do they have total autonomy here?
Speaker 3 (27:30):
I mean, if they're going to do something that is bad,
I'm gonna say no, we're not doing that, you know.
But if I say, do you guys think we should
do this or this? And I give them options and
they vote, I'm doing what they vote for. If they say, hey,
we need a Monday off, we're tired, and I say,
you guys know what the repercussions of this are, right,
it means Tuesday has to be this. I you guys
(27:51):
have to elevate Tuesday to another level and they say yes,
I'm like, okay, Monday's off. I firmly believe in extreme ownership,
especially in today's day and age, and to get a
team buy in, you need team commitment, team ownership, and
I think that was one thing our leadership council, the
decisions they made, and they could push the team to further,
my opinion, further than we thought we could go, or
(28:14):
people thought we could go, because there was such buy in,
because it was team decisions, not a head coach saying
we're gonna go out in practice for two hours and
thirty minutes today. In November, it was the leadership council saying, hey,
we talked to coach this is why we need to
practice for two hours and thirty minutes today.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
Wait, how did you learn this?
Speaker 3 (28:36):
I just believe in trusting people. I mean I leave
I mean I shouldn't say this, but I leave my
car unlocked like my wife hates it. I just believe
in people. I truly believe that if you try to,
if you give people the keys, if you truly empower people,
and if you get the right people around you and
you trust them and you believe in them right and
(28:57):
you empower them, they're gonna be better versus of them
el and that empowerment is going to take you as
a unit higher than you could ever go by me
saying run one hundred yards.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
Okay, if your car is gone by the end of
the day, I do not blame me.
Speaker 3 (29:12):
I'm gonna lock it now. I'm gonna have to change
my entire theory on not locking my car now because
I just exposed that.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
Congratulations on all this success. I appreciate it.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
I appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
Thank you. Coach coach Kenny Dillingham Arizona State second season
and they were three and nine first season, eleven to
three in season two. I could buy into that.
Speaker 7 (29:35):
Did we just get a new favorite coach. Oh, I
feel like we might have he's there, let's go. I
thought that was great, And so he leaves his leaves
his car unlocked.
Speaker 5 (29:46):
Yeah, he's got a little Sean Casey, the former Red's
third baseman. Than the way he talked to the Energy. Okay,
he's great.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
Yeah, no pregame speeches, though he struck me as like
his voice sounded like he had kind of lost it
or in the regular season, you know, like Doc Rivers
always sounds like it's June when you talk to him
in October, he's already lost his voice. Bill in Texas, Hi, Bill,
what's on your mind today?
Speaker 11 (30:13):
Hey, DP, thanks for taking the call. Yeah, source is
close to me with absolutely you know, real knowledge of
the situation. Have confirmed that coach Belichick hopped on the
private plane and made the tour of North Jersey Catholic
schools yesterday. Bochco and Bergen and Joe's and all those guys,
and of course everybody put all over social media, and
(30:33):
you can tell by the pictures with the coaches the order.
Speaker 6 (30:38):
Of his visits.
Speaker 12 (30:38):
Because his faith and its demeanor, he gets more disheveled
and more upset and angry about the whole deal that
he has to get on the road and do this stuff.
I cannot believe he's going to do this for more
than maybe you one year, because it was so striking
how miserable he was doing this process, taking pictures with
seventeen year old kids, offering them scholarships in North Carolina.
Speaker 11 (30:59):
It was it was really amazing to see.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
Well, I'm surprised that he's on the road. I would
go on the road, and Dion doesn't go on the road. Now,
you can zoom, but if you want to close, you
got to go on the road, because if Bill Belichick
comes into your home, you're probably going to close. Be like,
(31:24):
I'll be damn be wearing a Super Bowl ring. They'd
be like, what super Bowl is that?
Speaker 4 (31:29):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (31:30):
I don't know. I have so many forgot which one
that was. It might have been one where Vinitaria kicked
a game winning field. I don't know. I don't know,
but yeah, you got to do it. And I think
that's where you see a lot of these coaches who
are older coaches who just don't want to do this
anymore because you really are selling yourself to these kids
(31:52):
as opposed to the other way around. The NFL in
some ways is a whole lot easier than college football
because there's in basketball, there's just way too many moving parts.
You know, when I in the NFL, I draft you,
you know, I don't have to go Imagine free agency
where coaches had to go out and go door to door.
(32:13):
Now somebody's a free agent, I got to go and
talk to them. I got to go see, you know,
a high school game on Saturday or Friday night or something.
You don't have to do that in the NFL. And
you get somebody under contract, and you know, so it's
in a lot of ways it's a lot easier, and
you're able to delegate there. You're not going to booster meetings,
(32:35):
you're not going to go meet with the alumni, you're
not going to the North Carolina basketball like. You don't
have to do any of that stuff in the NFL.
That's why I think everybody was surprised. You got to
have energy, and look, you can be in your forties
and not have energy. It's not Bill's seventy two or
seventy three. You have to have energy. Pete Carroll's got energy.
(33:00):
Pete Carroll could coach college because he has that energy,
But I think he prefers the NFL because I think
that's a lot less stressful. We have the most must
win game of the weekend coming up. We also have
right tomorrow's headlines today with tonight's game that is Seton's
favorite segment of the show. Why are we doing that? Well?
(33:23):
How much time do you need? How about I give
you an hour? Can I give you an hour to
write the Fritzie? Can you remind me? I will remind me.
Todd loves this.
Speaker 1 (33:37):
It's fun.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
I know this. This makes Todd's day when he gets
to write tomorrow's headlines today. All Right, we'll take a break.
More phone calls coming up, and the most must win
game of the weekend back after this.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio WAP.
Speaker 2 (33:59):
Sources close to me tell me Pete Carroll had a
really good interview, and he I think was telling the Bears, look,
you're a contender and talked about creating culture, and really
it goes back to that. I talk about how there's
certain coaches who create a culture, and Dan Campbell I
think we laughed, smirked. Maybe some ridiculed the so called
(34:24):
culture that he was bringing it, nobody's laughing. Now there's
a culture that you have, like the Chiefs have a culture,
and it's tricky to kind of say, all right, what
is it. It just feels like, let's be adaptable. Let's
make sure we have, you know, people in place, so
when we have the interchangeable parts, they will fit in.
(34:47):
They have a different jigsaw puzzle every year. And the
Patriots had this as well, and it's really really difficult
to sustain greatness with that because you're not drafting high.
You do have some guys you've spent money on. But
they decided to move on from Tyreek Hill. That proved
to be a very very smart decision. You bring in
(35:08):
wide receivers, you change them year to year, running backs,
you've changed them year to year. Offensive lineman. But you've
had Kelsey, you've had Mahomes, you've had Chris Jones, like
you have those cornerstones there and trying to get culture.
And Pete created culture in Seattle, he created culture at
USC And then I'm being told that Pete Carroll said
(35:32):
to the Bears he would hire a coach in waiting
to replace him, which is interesting, But I don't know
if I'm the Bears organization, how am I taking that?
Speaker 3 (35:48):
Like?
Speaker 2 (35:49):
How long are you going to coach Pete? Three years?
And I'm going to have somebody who is going to
be an assistant head coach? Now, they might say, well,
why are we hiring you? Because if I'm a Bears fan,
I'm going wait, why do I want a coach? And
then three years from now another coach? Why don't we
(36:12):
just go all in on Ben Johnson? Like that would
be my thought Ben Johnson's thirty eight. I like the
Pete Carroll aspect of this. I mean, I'd love to
see Pete back in coaching and that culture that you're
going to have, but I don't. I don't like the Hey,
(36:33):
I'm going to come in. I'm already I'm going to
pick a coach in waiting if that's true. I don't
like that. Time to slide into the weekend brought to
you by King Sawaii, and they want you to get
together with family and friends, enjoy the weekend by making
every Sunday a slighter Sunday. Let's see what do we
have Steelers Ravens this has more storylines. It feels like
(36:56):
then every other game combined like this is crazy. You know,
the upside, Lamar gets a win, the downside, he loses
yet again. John Harbaugh. John Harbaugh hasn't had a lot
of postseason success in the last what nine years. Mike
Tomlin hasn't had a lot of postseason success. Russell Wilson Junior,
(37:21):
the Third's future with the Steelers at stake here, Like
there's a lot riding on this, a whole lot. Broncos
and the Bills. The Broncos were listed as one hundred
and fifty to one to win the Super Bowl this season.
Nobody's going to take them to win the Super Bowl.
But could they surprise the Buffalo Bills. You've got a
(37:43):
team that can rush the passer. Now, Buffalo doesn't give
up sacks, they play great defense. You're probably going to
have the defensive player of the Aaron Patrick's air ten.
It's I don't want bo Nicks to get into a
try to Josh Allen, Josh Allen. I want to just
do what Sean Payton one seemed to do. Don't try
(38:03):
to do too much here, Packers in the Eagles, man,
I don't rule out the Packers winning this game. It's
just a weird feeling. I just you know, is Jalen
Hurts healthy? Is Jordan Love healthy? The Eagles beat the Packers.
That was first week of the season. That was when
they played in Brazil. Commanders in the Buccaneers Commanders. How
(38:28):
many years has it been since the Commanders, the Washington
franchise won a playoff game?
Speaker 5 (38:34):
Paul, let's see won a playoff game?
Speaker 2 (38:39):
Won a playoff game.
Speaker 5 (38:43):
Two thousand and five.
Speaker 2 (38:45):
Give me a year, like the number of years?
Speaker 5 (38:47):
Oh, twenty years.
Speaker 2 (38:48):
Twenty years right now? All right, Todd, what's the question?
When's the last time Washington won a playoff?
Speaker 4 (39:02):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (39:02):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (39:02):
I have to research.
Speaker 5 (39:03):
I thought Paul just answered that.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
No, I'm asking you.
Speaker 5 (39:08):
Oh, dear, I'm not sure what you're asking him.
Speaker 3 (39:11):
Big. I thought you asked all a question, and he said,
twenty five twenty years ago was the answer to your question.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
He's going around the room asking all of us the
last time he was giving you the actual answer.
Speaker 6 (39:20):
I'm gonna say.
Speaker 2 (39:21):
It doesn't matter eighty seven. Yeah, I thought he was
giving you the answer that you were looking for. It
was a quiz. So I often do that Todd, where
I go, Let's go.
Speaker 5 (39:29):
You know, I thought he was looking at and gave you.
Speaker 2 (39:31):
Then you probably weren't listening. Commanders haven't won a playoff
game in nineteen years. Chargers versus the Texans, this is
gonna be a defensive batchup.
Speaker 5 (39:45):
Eleven who eighteen years ago.
Speaker 2 (39:49):
Thank you, Todd. I'm not even I'm not even going over,
I thought he answered it. I asked him a question
and he answered it. What is?
Speaker 8 (39:57):
How is this on me?
Speaker 2 (40:03):
I would say, don't ever change? But I know you
won't ever change. Most valuable least valuable? Dan, what you said?
Speaker 6 (40:12):
And I said?
Speaker 2 (40:13):
What? Sliding into the weekend brought to you by King Zawaiian.
They want you to get together with family and friends,
enjoy the weekend. Make every Sunday a slider Sunday. Keller
in Michigan, He or is it Kellen? Kellen in Michigan,
Hi Kellen.
Speaker 4 (40:30):
Hey Dan? Yeah, I appreciate you having me on first
time caller, Dan and danet appreciate everything. I wanted to
talk about the coaching vacancies. As a Detroit Lions fan,
I constantly hear about Ben Johnson and Aaron Glenn having
the opportunity to coach these teams. But you know, to
me to cement your legacy as being the crew, the
band that got the Lions not only to the super Bowl,
(40:51):
but the opportunity to win it.
Speaker 2 (40:53):
Yeah, is so much.
Speaker 4 (40:54):
Greater than you know, like ibuy advance and maybe jump ship,
but like the lionship is getting ready to pull into
and you want to jump off the ships went back
to a single island and start over with the Jets,
start over with the Bears, start over with the Jags,
the Raiders. You have an opportunity to cement yourself in
history and the city so much behind them that.
Speaker 2 (41:13):
Well, he's going to be there for this year and
hoping that they win a Super Bowl. But you want
to be a head coach, but you want the right situation,
and those situations weren't the right ones for him last year.
Maybe he priced himself out of some jobs. Now it
feels like, all right, we're going to win the Super
Bowl and I'm going to get a head coaching job.
(41:35):
But does he want to stay in the same division
with the Detroit Lions. Final hour on the way, we'll
talk to the Hall of Fame coach Bill Kauer
You are listening to The Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
It's our two on this Friday. It's a meat Friday,
sprinkled in with some seafood as well. Oysters courtesy of
dug in North Carolina, Carolina Gold oysters, reverse seared ribbas, crabcakes,
bacon wrapped scallomps. Who is it better than we do?
No body, buddy. Since losing to Northern Illinois September seventh,
(00:30):
Notre Dame has won thirteen games in a row, including
six wins over ranked teams. The Irish have won three
straight games against top ten teams. They beat Indiana when
Indiana was ninth, Georgia when Georgia was second, and then
Penn State. Last night. Penn State was the fifth ranked
team in the country.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
Wow stand a day, Stanleaaday, Stantata Day, Stannata Day.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
This is the stant of the day. Statam to day
rochyr Bi Panini America. The official trading cards of The
Dan Patrick Show. Good morning, if you're watching on peacock,
Thank you for allowing us into your homes and radio
affiliates around the country. iHeartRadio Fox Sports Radio. Thank you
for allowing us into your cars. Man Holmes or wherever
(01:18):
you happen to listen to this program. Gang's all here,
Minister of Humor. Fritzi is here, got his Broncos gear,
some Notre Dame gear as well, Seaton, Marv Paully and
yours truly. But you know, you go back to that game,
that loss at home against Northern Illinois, and I'm sure
the Northern Illinois fans are loving the fact they want
(01:38):
Notre Dame. I'm going a guest to win a national title.
So then you could say, yeah, we beat the national champs.
You've got Ohio State and Texas coming up tonight, that'll
be in the Cotton Bowl. The weather would be an issue.
Weather will be an issue, maybe getting to the game.
Obviously they're playing it indoors. But Ohio State is favored
by six, and according to DraftKings, Ohio State is still
(02:01):
the big favorite to win the national title. Even if
it's Ohio State versus Notre Dame, Ohio State would be
favored in that matchup, all right, eight seven to seven
to three. DP show email address DP at Danpatrick dot com,
Twitter handle at dp show. Oh my goodness, Pauly just
sent me a fill in the blank. WHOA wow? This
is an emergency fill in the blank.
Speaker 4 (02:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (02:24):
I figure with the coaching openings, they'll be filled in
next week. Okay, I doubt anything happens this weekend, but
I'd like to get everyone here on record, which is
what we do.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Okay. Ben Johnson will be the head coach of the
blank Todd.
Speaker 5 (02:39):
The Jacksonville Jaguars.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
See no Connor the New England Patriots. Ooh, I saw
where Aaron Glenn, the defensive coordinated with the lines, turned
down the opportunity to interview. Thanks, because he's going to
be coaching the Jets. Dan, Yeah, well, he knows he's
not coaching the Patriots. I think he knows that that's
(03:02):
for sure, all right. Marvin ben Johnson will be the
head coach of the Chicago Bears. Okay, Bear's apologist, Pauli.
Ben Johnson will be the head coach of the Patriots.
Speaker 5 (03:16):
Okay, I don't think he wants to coach in that
division against his old team. And Drake May looks awesome.
A lot of cap room.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Didn't they have caproom this year? They didn't spend the
money waiting the strike. Okay, Ben Johnson won't be a
head coach next year.
Speaker 5 (03:44):
Scalding.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Mike Vrabel will be the head coach of the blank Todd.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
I guess I'm buying into it.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
New England Patriots.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
All right, seat O'Connor, Oh the read You think Tom
Brady's going to be able to steer him to Vegas?
By the way, when I said Antonio Pierce was going
to get fired at the beginning of the week, I
thought he would. The GM got fired yesterday, Tom Tellusco.
(04:13):
Can you imagine you're Tom Telesco and let's say you
go to work and all of a sudden, everybody's gathering
around and you're going to talk about the coaching surge.
All of a sudden, you know, he comes in and
gets ready to sit down, and then Mark Davis goes
not so fast him. This is just for the current
coaching staff. His swipe card doesn't work. What is he thinking?
(04:35):
Knowing Antonio Pierce gets fired he's only been there one year,
and then you're going to get fired once again. This
is Tom Brady. This is Tom Brady until I'm told otherwise.
It feels like Tom's running this show right now. I'm
going to get you now unofficially. By the way, you
(04:56):
can't have a conflict of interest where you have the
lead play by player, lead color analyst for your Super
Bowl team with Fox being involved in a coaching search
or drafting or you know, picking a GM that could
never happen. Didn't this happen in baseball? Wasn't there a
conflict of interest in was it baseball? Oh? Jessica Mendoza
(05:21):
of ESPN, she was an analyst for Sunday Night Baseball,
She was an advisor in spring training. I think to
the Mets and then they go, you got to get up,
give up that job. Conflict of vers. Here's Tom who's
a minority owner, and he's you know, he's the number
one team, the Fox team that's going to be calling
(05:42):
the Super Bowl. I'd say that's a little bit of
conflict of interest there, Yes, Pom.
Speaker 5 (05:47):
Like Tom has no title. You walk into he has
an office at the Raiders facility just says Tom Brady,
nothing under it. His business card just says Tom Brady, Raiders,
no title.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
AGM or president. Yeah, yeah, I would say that. Well, Well,
once again, if I'm Mark Davis, I bring in Tom Brady.
It'd be crazy not to say to Tom, give me
everything you think we should do. I think this is
a good thing, the fact that Brady reportedly reached out
to Bill Belichick, and then everybody's talking about the same
(06:16):
thing that as of June. First, the buyout for Bill
Belichick is a million dollars. Prior to that, it's ten million. Well,
the reason is because you know you're going to do
all your recruiting nil, all of that. You know, transfer
portal you're going to get to June. You have to
have a coach in place in the NFL and certainly
in college. But you know, the reaction from those at
(06:38):
North Carolina are this is a bogus report that Bill
Belichick is not going to take a job in the
NFL this year. Okay, here we go. Pete Carroll will
be the head coach of the Blank. Todd gum chewing
in Chicago, dub Bears, take Pete Carroll. Okay, seat O'Connor.
(07:02):
Pete Carroll the head coach of the Blank. Nowhere's ville,
no okaye players. Okay, so he's still a teacher at
USC Marvin the Innermural flag football, Okay, all right, all right, Pauli.
Pete Carroll will be the head coach of the.
Speaker 5 (07:24):
If the Bears go over too. It's Pete Carroll time.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
What about Jacksonville? Kind of a rando there.
Speaker 5 (07:32):
At State USC. Really, I'd rather be an adjunct at
USC than coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Just for giggles, they'll say Pete Carroll will be the
next head coach of the Jags, And I have no
information on this. Just let you know. I don't know
if he can surf down there like he I think
he still lives in Manhattan Beach, So give him a
nice beach community there and I think he'll be Okay.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
Yes, time, nobody picked Jets, Raiders, Saints, no one, no one?
Speaker 2 (08:00):
What do we have any thoughts on who's going to
those teams? Well that wasn't part of the blank no.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
But just as part two of like you see the Jets,
you have any good feeling on the Jets Raiders?
Speaker 2 (08:09):
All right? All right, then we'll do that. The next
head coach of the New York Jets will be Blank
Todd Aaron Glenn. Okay, are you good?
Speaker 6 (08:18):
Now?
Speaker 2 (08:20):
The next head coach of the New Orleans Saints will
be yea or the Raiders.
Speaker 6 (08:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (08:30):
I was just throwing it out to the room. I
didn't have specific answers. Oh, you put me on the spot.
Aaron Glenn's got a history of the Jets, I said,
Aaron Blin.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
But but it is part of the game, the fill
in the blank. I'm going to suggest that. Yes, So
if I say the next head coach of the Saints
will be blank, you have an answer until you don't, Okay.
Speaker 5 (08:47):
Vance, Joseph.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
I mean to be fair.
Speaker 7 (08:49):
I just said that Aaron Glenn was going to be
the Jets head coach and offered that up Todd, So
you kind of stole.
Speaker 8 (08:56):
I've been known to do that once in a while.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Yeah, just saying it's called sampling. A simple Joe Brady
will be the oh oh oh Joe Brady Okay, because
he was at LSU and then he was what in Buffalo.
Let's go right across the street.
Speaker 5 (09:13):
Remember at LSU he had that weird title of passing
game coordinator, not offensive coordinator, like a separate title.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Well, he was really good as the passing coordinator. It
helps if the Saints could have a transfer portal from
LSU and get those wide receivers to come there.
Speaker 5 (09:31):
Yes, Tom, what's the future for Spags and Monken?
Speaker 1 (09:33):
We like to talk about those guys and they getting
an up coming at coaching gigs.
Speaker 6 (09:37):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
Spags got a couple of interviews. I guess I don't
know about Todd Munkin. I'd have to ask Kirk Kurtis
Herbie loves Todd Munkin. Lou lou An Roumo.
Speaker 5 (09:51):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Yeah. And when you think about it, when you when
you are listening to games, there's certain times where there's
certain assistant coaches or coordinators who are always acknowledged, always
in a positive way. Let's see what Spags dials up
for the Chiefs. Yes, Marvin.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
When I was a kid, the first name I heard
that wasn't a head coach was North Turner.
Speaker 5 (10:14):
Yeah, he was always up to see what is going
to draw.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
Buddy Ryan with the Bears, see what he's going to
dial up here? Yeah, Paul.
Speaker 5 (10:23):
A couple of years ago when Clemson was rolling, you know,
Brent Ventable.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
Brent Vnable, he was.
Speaker 5 (10:29):
Brent Vennables dialing up a blitz. I heard that more
in my house and my kids' names.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Pet Hervey, he was always dialing something up there. And
Bred Vennable's.
Speaker 5 (10:42):
Vaunted Brent Bennables defense not just the Clemsony.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Oh last hour, I stumbled upon a question and didn't
have an answer to it. The most valuable caller We
normally do this. I didn't acknowledge one person as the
most valuable caller. I would probably I would say James
in Virginia because the following he stayed with the commanders
(11:07):
through how many years, seven or eight years? He would
always hail you know, he was always saying something nice
about the commanders when the commanders weren't very good, and
he stayed with it. Uh, what does he work for? Ys?
Speaker 6 (11:23):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (11:25):
He works for UPS. Yeah, okay, yeah, I didn't know
if it was FedEx or whatever. So he'd listen to
those delivery companies. Yeah, he's delivering something to somebody. And
I would acknowledge that he would be the most valuable caller.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Now.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
I did acknowledge also that Bob and Montana kind of
tried to buy the vote. He sent me some bourbon,
which is fun. I mean, I can be bod, but
he sent some bourbon. He sent some other you know,
Elvis trinkets, and uh, and Bob and Montana joins us
right now?
Speaker 6 (11:56):
Hi, Bob, oh, hey, TP, how about that for good timing.
I'm actually just calling you, since you're a fellow Elvis fan.
I'm calling for my annual report live from Graceland for
Elvis's ninetieth birthday. So it's it's been a great week
down here, full of concerts, trivia contest. The only big
news today is there's eight inches of new snow and
(12:17):
everything here, so it's making the roads a bit of
a mess. But hey, maybe if I didn't win the
if I didn't win MVC, that's fine. A James of Virginia.
He's a great caller. And I still hope you enjoyed
the bourbon and the Elvis bourbon, the boots and everything.
So and I appreciate the shout out and appreciate all
you did for my life last year, bringing me down
(12:39):
to Vegas with you and doing the big Elvis thing
and hanging out with our boxer shorts backstage. It was
a great time.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Are you able to go wherever you want to when
you go to Graceland? Can you go to the jungle room?
Can you go to the bathroom where Elvis dne Oh?
Speaker 6 (12:56):
No, So you can't go upstairs. So I tell people
that's that Elvis still up there, because you're not allowed
upside of anything but everything else. You can go through
them and there's like there's like tour guide people there
to make sure you don't like, you know, damage anything
or whatever. There's a person in every single room, but
there's a whole complex across the street with cars and
planes and clothes and just everything you can even think of.
(13:17):
So it's just it's just a wonderful place to be here.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
So all right, we'll save travels bomb and uh thanks
keep the cards and letters coming there. We appreciate that.
Nick in California, Hi, Nick, what's on your mind?
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Be Dan?
Speaker 8 (13:31):
Good morning? Dennett's good. Let me hear you man.
Speaker 6 (13:34):
Let's go Broncos.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Let's go Broncos.
Speaker 8 (13:40):
There we go, say with I got a question for you.
I've heard you say on the show a few times.
Rookie of the Year Jade and Daniels. There's got to
be an argument. Bo Knicks has been phenomenal and they're
both in the playoffs. I know Brock Dollars has been awesome.
Maybe next poll question, Who's Rookie is Year? I don't
(14:01):
know who the fourth candidate would be, but I know
between bar Knicks and Jamee Daniels, it's it's almost tied.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
There your thoughts, well, I said Jade and Daniels should
be in the MVP conversation from the standpoint of what
he meant to a franchise, a franchise that was an embarrassment.
They found their quarterback. I you know, I think Dan's
done a very good job as the head coach. Like
they had to get rid of Dan Snyder. They had
(14:28):
to get rid of that whatever that was, and they
become They're relevant, They're in the playoffs, and I think
that his you know, being a dual threat. Bow Knicks
played great. He did, but I'm it's weird. I'm less
surprised that bow Knicks played well with Sean Payton than
(14:50):
I am. You know, Jade and Daniels. I just didn't
know with that team. Now. I thought that they were
going to be one of those surprise teams this year
along with the Falcons. They were better than I thought
they were, and he seemed he didn't seem like a rookie.
Brock Bauer is going to be first team All Pro.
He's great and he did it with bad quarterback play
as well. He had a record setting season. Look, I
(15:13):
don't have any say in any of this. I don't
vote on any of these. It doesn't matter to me.
I'm just saying if you said, what's my opinion, I
would say Jaden Daniels because I think he is an
MVP candidate as opposed to the others who just had
really good rookie seasons. More phone calls coming up. Bill
Cower will join us in an hour from now, and

on Peacock that's our streaming partner. We say good morning
to the Arizona State head football coach. Kenny Dillingham. Had
(17:08):
an unbelievable season, took Texas to a couple overtimes before
being bounced from the postseason. Kenny, thanks for joining us.
How many times have you watched that game?
Speaker 3 (17:19):
Too many? Way, way too many? Probably ten twelve times?
Speaker 2 (17:24):
But what are you trying to get out of that
when you watch?
Speaker 3 (17:28):
To be honest, just what tips did they have to
give their players an advantage? And if we ever played
them again, what could we do to give our players
an advantage? I mean nothing more or less than that.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Do you watch alone?
Speaker 3 (17:41):
I do?
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Do you drink beers when you're want? I mean, you know,
can you have a little bit of fun when you're
watching this coach?
Speaker 3 (17:51):
Sometimes? Usually when you win, you do that. When you lose,
you try to drown in the sorrows.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
But what is it that you could have done? If
I say, you get one mulligan? What would you have
done differently?
Speaker 3 (18:03):
I would have had not called a timeout on the
fourth and one in overtime. I would have let the
play eat and it would have converted, and I would
have had a time out to say for the fourth
and twelve when yours checked out of it out into
a cover zero beater.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
I thought you were going to say something about the targeting.
No call there.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
I can't control that.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
How painful is that to watch? Because I thought it
was you could have picked a penalty either defenseless receiver
or you could have done targeting and they gave you
neither of those. What do you see when you see
that play now over and over?
Speaker 3 (18:47):
I think I see the same thing that everybody sees.
H That's just it is what it is. Though, that's sport.
There's missed calls, there's calls all There's probably five of
their calls in the game that nobody talks about that
probably could have gone against us. So I don't like
to use those moments as excuses, even though they're the
big moments and they're what everybody should talk about, because
(19:08):
people only talk about the big plays, the big moments,
the big no calls, the big mate calls, whatever it is.
But there's a lot of things I could have done
better to help our football team.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
If Ryan Day reached out to you today and said, Hey,
got any tips for me facing Texas, what would you
tell him?
Speaker 3 (19:26):
Yeah, it's on They're they're very physical on the perimeter. Uh,
They're they're really good tacklers, and I think that's a
great skill. I think it's one thing you see on tape,
but like when you see it live, the size and
the tackling ability. Uh, it's different. Then I would say
you have to have an ability to check when quen
yours checks. You can't let queners check Texas and THEO
(19:48):
good football plays and uh and not change the look.
So you better create a mechanism defensively to check when
he checks.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
Okay, explain how you then can counteract when yours is
going to check and change to play. Then what is
your job?
Speaker 3 (20:03):
So you could have like a dual call. So basically
you say we're going to run field blitz and we're
going to run cover four and if the quarterback checks,
then we're going to change from our field blitz call
to automatically changing to cover four. So he made a
check based off of field blitz and he wants the
perfect play versus that we're now going to a complimentary call.
(20:27):
So having a way just like offenses have a way
to when you hear kill kill and the quarterbacks say
that he's changing calls based off the look. Same thing
for a defense.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
But the fourth and thirteen touchdown did he check out
of something?
Speaker 3 (20:42):
He did? He checked out of a call in which
we felt really good about what we were doing into
a call later on the clock. And you know he
didn't unbelievable check and then they executed really well.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
What did you think of the Notre Dame Penn Stake
game game.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
I think Marcus Freeman's an absolute stud of a human being.
I've been going versus Ham since I was at Florida
State when he was the defensive coordinator and he was
a phenomenal coach then, and I think the way he
leads people, I think you can see his guys play
really hard.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Do you have a clock management guy like Marcus Freeman
has a guy right next to him? Do you have
a guy whose only job is to give you clock management?
Speaker 3 (21:23):
I did. It was Matt Butterfield. He just took the
full time special teams coordinator job though elsewhere, so I'm hiring.
So if you ever want to hang it out clock
management guy, let me know.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
I like the colors and I like the climate. I
just don't know what it pays.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
Not what you mean, I'll tell you.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
He's the Arizona State head coach, Ken Dillingham joining us
on the program. I'm going to ask Bill Kauer about this.
We see this with Dan Campbell other coaches. They create
a culture. It feels like you're creating a culture, but
I don't know how you go about creating that culture.
Speaker 3 (22:02):
Yeah. I think for us, we pick our players, right,
we recruit our players. So for us, it's recruiting guys
that are like minded. You know, our three pillars of
our program are be a good person. It's very simple
to be a good person, make good decisions. It's very
simple to make good decisions, and then have more fun,
working harder than anybody in the country. So what is
(22:22):
our culture? We better recruit to people that when they
walk around the building, they have a smile on their face,
they're excited to be here, they crack a joke. You know,
they have personality because I really think when you get
people around you that personality, you wake up and you
may have a down day and that person is going
to lift you higher than you would have been. And
that's the culture we're trying to create.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
First time you see cam Skataboo, you your response is
your reaction is what.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
Man this had all those yards? You know he's an underdog.
There's a reason for it. But what he's done to
change his body and to change who he is. Just
as a physical specimen, he's the strongest he's ever been.
Least body that he's ever had, fastest has ever been.
Mindset's better than it's ever been. He went from a
(23:09):
really really good football player to somebody who was top
five in the Heisman vote, and I think he should
have been higher.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
But so that confidence of just kind of loading him
up and just say go like he's gonna he knows
he's gonna get We talked to him after the loss
and he said, look, I know I'm gonna get hurt.
I know it's going to hurt, but I'm going to
hurt you as well. Like that kind of physicality. And
he said, Marshawn Lynch is sort of, you know, one
of his idols or who he runs like.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
Yeah, I think Scott just has that in mindset. He
gets into he's the nicest kid off the field, super intelligent.
People think his play style, oh he's crazy. Scott is
incredibly intelligent, high high IQ. And for him to flip
a switch into this like no way anybody can stop
(23:57):
me mode? And does that mean he's always not going
to be stopped. No, Nobody in the history of sports
ever been invincible, But it means he believes it so
much that he's going to make plays that people are like,
what just happened? And every day for the last seven
hundred days or whatever, seven hundred and eighty days I've
coached him, he has done something at practice or in
a game that I'm like, what just happened? That is incredible.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
How often do you go to an opposing team stadium
and people question if you really are the head coach
at Arizona State?
Speaker 1 (24:28):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (24:29):
The way easier question? How often do I does that
not happen? I mean I look twelve, so it's you know,
when I walk around, it's just part of it. You know,
I've been young my whole life, though I started coaching
at seventeen, so I'm very used to the fact. I mean,
I get stopped trying to walk into the field before
the before the peach ball. They're like, you need credentials,
(24:50):
go back and get them, and I do it. You know,
at the end of the day, the people are doing
their jobs, so people don't really recognize me. I appreciate it.
I look young when I'm older, you know what I mean,
and people will be jealous. But right now, it's just
part of it.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
What do you expect to happen tonight? Between Texas and
Ohio State.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
I haven't watched enough Ohio State to give like a
really really good opinion. I know Texas is going to
be really good on defense. I know they're not going
to give up big plays. So I think the key
to Ohio State, I can. You think the key to
the game is how do you stop Ohio State and
one of the best wide receivers in college football in
(25:31):
a long time. And you can't just double team them
because Ohio State's too good to do that. So what
are you doing to get the quarterback to think he's
double teamed, move his eyes off of him, but him
really be singled up? And I think that's one of
the hidden things in the game, is the deception of
him being doubled. Can you do that enough to single
(25:51):
him up and get your hats elsewhere? For Texas and
if they can, you know, I think they're both really
good football teams.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
By the way, when we had cam on he said
he checked out of that that halfback option that I
think he said. Your quarterback said he was banged up,
don't throw me the football, and so he changed the play.
Did you know that?
Speaker 3 (26:14):
Yeah? I did. I saw it live and in person
baby and on fourthan too in the fourth quarter, So
that was exciting. But he's the same dude that punted
for US last year and checked out of a punt
versus USC and did this and signaled a wide out
to run a slam and threw it to him for
(26:34):
a first down. Same dude that caught a toss, scrambled
backward ninety seven yards, realized he was going to lose
yards and threw the ball away. His football IQ and
his savviness is unbelievable for his style of plug.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
You strike me as a pregame speech guy. Really, yeah, I.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
Actually don't give pregame speeches. Our players give pregame speeches.
This is a player run program. Our players give the
free game. Our players make the decisions. I am literally
a surrogate between the leadership council and the players, and
my job is to help the leadership council make the
best decisions for the football team. But I do not
(27:13):
run the show here. Our players run the show. I
just help them get get to the best decisions. In
my opinion, well.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
Like, is there a cutoff point of what they're allowed
to do? And say, like, do they have total autonomy here?
Speaker 3 (27:30):
I mean, if they're going to do something that is bad,
I'm gonna say no, we're not doing that, you know.
But if I say, do you guys think we should
do this or this? And I give them options and
they vote, I'm doing what they vote for. If they say, hey,
we need a Monday off, we're tired, and I say,
you guys know what the repercussions of this are, right,
it means Tuesday has to be this. I you guys
(27:51):
have to elevate Tuesday to another level and they say yes,
I'm like, okay, Monday's off. I firmly believe in extreme ownership,
especially in today's day and age, and to get a
team buy in, you need team commitment, team ownership, and
I think that was one thing our leadership council, the
decisions they made, and they could push the team to further,
my opinion, further than we thought we could go, or
(28:14):
people thought we could go, because there was such buy in,
because it was team decisions, not a head coach saying
we're gonna go out in practice for two hours and
thirty minutes today. In November, it was the leadership council saying, hey,
we talked to coach this is why we need to
practice for two hours and thirty minutes today.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
Wait, how did you learn this?
Speaker 3 (28:36):
I just believe in trusting people. I mean I leave
I mean I shouldn't say this, but I leave my
car unlocked like my wife hates it. I just believe
in people. I truly believe that if you try to,
if you give people the keys, if you truly empower people,
and if you get the right people around you and
you trust them and you believe in them right and
(28:57):
you empower them, they're gonna be better versus of them
el and that empowerment is going to take you as
a unit higher than you could ever go by me
saying run one hundred yards.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
Okay, if your car is gone by the end of
the day, I do not blame me.
Speaker 3 (29:12):
I'm gonna lock it now. I'm gonna have to change
my entire theory on not locking my car now because
I just exposed that.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
Congratulations on all this success. I appreciate it.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
I appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
Thank you. Coach coach Kenny Dillingham Arizona State second season
and they were three and nine first season, eleven to
three in season two. I could buy into that.
Speaker 7 (29:35):
Did we just get a new favorite coach. Oh, I
feel like we might have he's there, let's go. I
thought that was great, And so he leaves his leaves
his car unlocked.
Speaker 5 (29:46):
Yeah, he's got a little Sean Casey, the former Red's
third baseman. Than the way he talked to the Energy. Okay,
he's great.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
Yeah, no pregame speeches, though he struck me as like
his voice sounded like he had kind of lost it
or in the regular season, you know, like Doc Rivers
always sounds like it's June when you talk to him
in October, he's already lost his voice. Bill in Texas, Hi, Bill,
what's on your mind today?
Speaker 11 (30:13):
Hey, DP, thanks for taking the call. Yeah, source is
close to me with absolutely you know, real knowledge of
the situation. Have confirmed that coach Belichick hopped on the
private plane and made the tour of North Jersey Catholic
schools yesterday. Bochco and Bergen and Joe's and all those guys,
and of course everybody put all over social media, and
(30:33):
you can tell by the pictures with the coaches the order.
Speaker 6 (30:38):
Of his visits.
Speaker 12 (30:38):
Because his faith and its demeanor, he gets more disheveled
and more upset and angry about the whole deal that
he has to get on the road and do this stuff.
I cannot believe he's going to do this for more
than maybe you one year, because it was so striking
how miserable he was doing this process, taking pictures with
seventeen year old kids, offering them scholarships in North Carolina.
Speaker 11 (30:59):
It was it was really amazing to see.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
Well, I'm surprised that he's on the road. I would
go on the road, and Dion doesn't go on the road. Now,
you can zoom, but if you want to close, you
got to go on the road, because if Bill Belichick
comes into your home, you're probably going to close. Be like,
(31:24):
I'll be damn be wearing a Super Bowl ring. They'd
be like, what super Bowl is that?
Speaker 4 (31:29):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (31:30):
I don't know. I have so many forgot which one
that was. It might have been one where Vinitaria kicked
a game winning field. I don't know. I don't know,
but yeah, you got to do it. And I think
that's where you see a lot of these coaches who
are older coaches who just don't want to do this
anymore because you really are selling yourself to these kids
(31:52):
as opposed to the other way around. The NFL in
some ways is a whole lot easier than college football
because there's in basketball, there's just way too many moving parts.
You know, when I in the NFL, I draft you,
you know, I don't have to go Imagine free agency
where coaches had to go out and go door to door.
(32:13):
Now somebody's a free agent, I got to go and
talk to them. I got to go see, you know,
a high school game on Saturday or Friday night or something.
You don't have to do that in the NFL. And
you get somebody under contract, and you know, so it's
in a lot of ways it's a lot easier, and
you're able to delegate there. You're not going to booster meetings,
(32:35):
you're not going to go meet with the alumni, you're
not going to the North Carolina basketball like. You don't
have to do any of that stuff in the NFL.
That's why I think everybody was surprised. You got to
have energy, and look, you can be in your forties
and not have energy. It's not Bill's seventy two or
seventy three. You have to have energy. Pete Carroll's got energy.
(33:00):
Pete Carroll could coach college because he has that energy,
But I think he prefers the NFL because I think
that's a lot less stressful. We have the most must
win game of the weekend coming up. We also have
right tomorrow's headlines today with tonight's game that is Seton's
favorite segment of the show. Why are we doing that? Well?
(33:23):
How much time do you need? How about I give
you an hour? Can I give you an hour to
write the Fritzie? Can you remind me? I will remind me.
Todd loves this.
Speaker 1 (33:37):
It's fun.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
I know this. This makes Todd's day when he gets
to write tomorrow's headlines today. All Right, we'll take a break.
More phone calls coming up, and the most must win
game of the weekend back after this.

Speaker 2 (33:59):
Sources close to me tell me Pete Carroll had a
really good interview, and he I think was telling the Bears, look,
you're a contender and talked about creating culture, and really
it goes back to that. I talk about how there's
certain coaches who create a culture, and Dan Campbell I
think we laughed, smirked. Maybe some ridiculed the so called
(34:24):
culture that he was bringing it, nobody's laughing. Now there's
a culture that you have, like the Chiefs have a culture,
and it's tricky to kind of say, all right, what
is it. It just feels like, let's be adaptable. Let's
make sure we have, you know, people in place, so
when we have the interchangeable parts, they will fit in.
(34:47):
They have a different jigsaw puzzle every year. And the
Patriots had this as well, and it's really really difficult
to sustain greatness with that because you're not drafting high.
You do have some guys you've spent money on. But
they decided to move on from Tyreek Hill. That proved
to be a very very smart decision. You bring in
(35:08):
wide receivers, you change them year to year, running backs,
you've changed them year to year. Offensive lineman. But you've
had Kelsey, you've had Mahomes, you've had Chris Jones, like
you have those cornerstones there and trying to get culture.
And Pete created culture in Seattle, he created culture at
USC And then I'm being told that Pete Carroll said
(35:32):
to the Bears he would hire a coach in waiting
to replace him, which is interesting, But I don't know
if I'm the Bears organization, how am I taking that?
Speaker 3 (35:48):
Like?
Speaker 2 (35:49):
How long are you going to coach Pete? Three years?
And I'm going to have somebody who is going to
be an assistant head coach? Now, they might say, well,
why are we hiring you? Because if I'm a Bears fan,
I'm going wait, why do I want a coach? And
then three years from now another coach? Why don't we
(36:12):
just go all in on Ben Johnson? Like that would
be my thought Ben Johnson's thirty eight. I like the
Pete Carroll aspect of this. I mean, I'd love to
see Pete back in coaching and that culture that you're
going to have, but I don't. I don't like the Hey,
(36:33):
I'm going to come in. I'm already I'm going to
pick a coach in waiting if that's true. I don't
like that. Time to slide into the weekend brought to
you by King Sawaii, and they want you to get
together with family and friends, enjoy the weekend by making
every Sunday a slighter Sunday. Let's see what do we
have Steelers Ravens this has more storylines. It feels like
(36:56):
then every other game combined like this is crazy. You know,
the upside, Lamar gets a win, the downside, he loses
yet again. John Harbaugh. John Harbaugh hasn't had a lot
of postseason success in the last what nine years. Mike
Tomlin hasn't had a lot of postseason success. Russell Wilson Junior,
(37:21):
the Third's future with the Steelers at stake here, Like
there's a lot riding on this, a whole lot. Broncos
and the Bills. The Broncos were listed as one hundred
and fifty to one to win the Super Bowl this season.
Nobody's going to take them to win the Super Bowl.
But could they surprise the Buffalo Bills. You've got a
(37:43):
team that can rush the passer. Now, Buffalo doesn't give
up sacks, they play great defense. You're probably going to
have the defensive player of the Aaron Patrick's air ten.
It's I don't want bo Nicks to get into a
try to Josh Allen, Josh Allen. I want to just
do what Sean Payton one seemed to do. Don't try
(38:03):
to do too much here, Packers in the Eagles, man,
I don't rule out the Packers winning this game. It's
just a weird feeling. I just you know, is Jalen
Hurts healthy? Is Jordan Love healthy? The Eagles beat the Packers.
That was first week of the season. That was when
they played in Brazil. Commanders in the Buccaneers Commanders. How
(38:28):
many years has it been since the Commanders, the Washington
franchise won a playoff game?
Speaker 5 (38:34):
Paul, let's see won a playoff game?
Speaker 2 (38:39):
Won a playoff game.
Speaker 5 (38:43):
Two thousand and five.
Speaker 2 (38:45):
Give me a year, like the number of years?
Speaker 5 (38:47):
Oh, twenty years.
Speaker 2 (38:48):
Twenty years right now? All right, Todd, what's the question?
When's the last time Washington won a playoff?
Speaker 4 (39:02):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (39:02):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (39:02):
I have to research.
Speaker 5 (39:03):
I thought Paul just answered that.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
No, I'm asking you.
Speaker 5 (39:08):
Oh, dear, I'm not sure what you're asking him.
Speaker 3 (39:11):
Big. I thought you asked all a question, and he said,
twenty five twenty years ago was the answer to your question.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
He's going around the room asking all of us the
last time he was giving you the actual answer.
Speaker 6 (39:20):
I'm gonna say.
Speaker 2 (39:21):
It doesn't matter eighty seven. Yeah, I thought he was
giving you the answer that you were looking for. It
was a quiz. So I often do that Todd, where
I go, Let's go.
Speaker 5 (39:29):
You know, I thought he was looking at and gave you.
Speaker 2 (39:31):
Then you probably weren't listening. Commanders haven't won a playoff
game in nineteen years. Chargers versus the Texans, this is
gonna be a defensive batchup.
Speaker 5 (39:45):
Eleven who eighteen years ago.
Speaker 2 (39:49):
Thank you, Todd. I'm not even I'm not even going over,
I thought he answered it. I asked him a question
and he answered it. What is?
Speaker 8 (39:57):
How is this on me?
Speaker 2 (40:03):
I would say, don't ever change? But I know you
won't ever change. Most valuable least valuable? Dan, what you said?
Speaker 6 (40:12):
And I said?
Speaker 2 (40:13):
What? Sliding into the weekend brought to you by King Zawaiian.
They want you to get together with family and friends,
enjoy the weekend. Make every Sunday a slider Sunday. Keller
in Michigan, He or is it Kellen? Kellen in Michigan,
Hi Kellen.
Speaker 4 (40:30):
Hey Dan? Yeah, I appreciate you having me on first
time caller, Dan and danet appreciate everything. I wanted to
talk about the coaching vacancies. As a Detroit Lions fan,
I constantly hear about Ben Johnson and Aaron Glenn having
the opportunity to coach these teams. But you know, to
me to cement your legacy as being the crew, the
band that got the Lions not only to the super Bowl,
(40:51):
but the opportunity to win it.
Speaker 2 (40:53):
Yeah, is so much.
Speaker 4 (40:54):
Greater than you know, like ibuy advance and maybe jump ship,
but like the lionship is getting ready to pull into
and you want to jump off the ships went back
to a single island and start over with the Jets,
start over with the Bears, start over with the Jags,
the Raiders. You have an opportunity to cement yourself in
history and the city so much behind them that.
Speaker 2 (41:13):
Well, he's going to be there for this year and
hoping that they win a Super Bowl. But you want
to be a head coach, but you want the right situation,
and those situations weren't the right ones for him last year.
Maybe he priced himself out of some jobs. Now it
feels like, all right, we're going to win the Super
Bowl and I'm going to get a head coaching job.
(41:35):
But does he want to stay in the same division
with the Detroit Lions. Final hour on the way, we'll
talk to the Hall of Fame coach Bill Kauer
