Speaker 1 (00:02):
Our number two of Bucks line Matt McCoy with Bill Conley,
Jeff Logan and Roy Hall joining us now as well
as we continue to talk about eyes with you.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
For another hour. Bill's No.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
Nine Enemy coming up at seven thirty five about the
Wisconsin Badgers, Roy Hall, when you were at Ohio State,
Luke was on the coaching staff.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Was he not Luke Fickle?
Speaker 3 (00:25):
Special teams and linebackers? One point?
Speaker 1 (00:28):
What is your I mean, what are your memories a
of him as a coach, a young coach at that time,
and he ends up, you know, obviously having a lot
of success and be just knowing him like you do.
Do you feel like we started the show talking about
we feel bad for him, like it's it's not working.
The fans are doing him fire Fickle chants and everything.
(00:49):
Just what are your feelings about that whole situation?
Speaker 4 (00:51):
Well, you know, I got to get on you because
sometimes you say things and I'm like, what is happening?
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Am I jumping on you again?
Speaker 4 (00:57):
No, it's just like you said my first and last name,
like he didn't know me, like he was like, So,
Roy Hall, tell me that for the benefit think about
you just said.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
We're joined now by Roy Hall. And then he looked
at me.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
And say, all right, Roy Hall, do you think about
Luke Fickle.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
I'm doing that for the benefit.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
Did all that I got demoted into friendship? Didn't that?
Speaker 4 (01:18):
But who took my place? Coach Signetty took my place?
Or Coach Franklin. You just felt so bad about him,
you elevated him. So Coach Fickle is out of his mind,
not as much as he is I mean today that
he was then, but he was the I mean, you
saw how they were talking about Coach Rabel in the
(01:40):
NFL was jumping in between fights and things.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
Still to this day, Coach Fickle was the exact same
way I found myself in a scrum.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
Right, I'm not going to talk about who I was
in the scrum with, but it was my junior year,
and I'm not going.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
To talk about exactly how we got to the point.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
Just know that there was an individual on my team
who was saying some things behind my back to a
young lady that I was dating.
Speaker 5 (02:11):
It's either food or women.
Speaker 4 (02:13):
Yeah, yeah, it's one of the two, right, And and
you know it was just some rumors going around, and
you know it wasn't so much that they were trying
to talk to her, but the long plan and play
probably was and so I had heard about it.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
And I just didn't say that I'm going to handle
this on the field.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
So I had to line up and somehow ended up
engaged with this person on the block.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
Now.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
The first time, I kind of let them know that
I was there, but I knew that was just me
just kind of see how they would play me, just
on a traditional and I didn't want to go out
with rage, but I was just making sure everything was good.
The second time, though, Man, when I tell you to
take all the anger and rage of a torn year
(03:00):
old hide testosterone, you know, two hundred and thirty pound receiver,
he felt all of it, and I you just black out.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
I don't know what I was doing. Here's what I
do remember, though.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
All of a sudden, I'm you know, I'm on top
of this guy, and I don't know if I'm.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
Trying to choke, fight, punch, rip face masks off. I
just find myself.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
You ever see a full chicken wing and you see
that it's all bent up.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
I somehow find myself in a position.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
Where my hand and my arm are like twisted behind
my head. In some sort of a full Nelson slash
something else. It felt like if I moved my shoulder
was gonna get ripped off by someone.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
It wasn't the person that and I just heard a voice.
They said stop moving, stop moving, and I was like,
that's Coach Fickle.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
And he had me in some sort of wrestling hold
State champion.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
I know, wait a minute.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
When I realized who it was, I stopped moving on purpose,
like because he's out of his mind too and so
and he got me off of and then you know,
Coach Tressel reprimanded both of us and whatever. But that
was Coach Fickle back then. Any time of fight broke out,
he was in the middle of it. Scratch face, bloody nose,
(04:29):
busted lip. It was like he fed like off of
like he loved it, absolutely loved it.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
And I just like me, he's out of his mind.
He's freaking crazy and full of energy and all that stuff.
But obviously over the court.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
See this is when I knew he lost his edge
when I see his hairline and his hair now, his
hair doesn't look as nice as it used to be,
you know what I'm saying. And he's a little bit
softer now you know that sort of thing, and that
happens obviously with age, but money, yeah, and money, and
so he was he was like and he probably still
is that.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
However, you know, back then it was like, man, he
was in the middle of everything. All right.
Speaker 6 (05:04):
Bottom line, you've left out the key point in this
entire escapade.
Speaker 5 (05:10):
Who got the girl?
Speaker 4 (05:12):
No, I didn't lose the girl, or I didn't lose
that fight and you girl, yeah yeah, and you won.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
Well, coach Trussel was disappointed that we were once fighting,
and so that hurt me.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
I was like, I thought I was so you know
what I mean.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
I thought it was going to be like, all right,
we saw some passion. We had a you know, a
practice that was just kind of going through the motions.
Usually when the linebackers and the running backs get into it,
no one cares. Some some DB's a receiver get into it. It's like, oh,
you guys shouldn't be fighting out there.
Speaker 6 (05:36):
He's not telling us who it was, but we've got
it wheeled down to to a dB.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
It was it was yeah, yeah, I didn't I didn't
lose that day. I didn't lose.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Okay, you talk about engaging with uh, you know, getting
in fisticups with a player that kind of leads me
to uh. Email I got from Nate. Also, concerning a
receiver as great as he is, I'm worried about Jeremiah Smith.
By my count, he's been flagged three times this year
for after the whistle pushing and shoving. Do you think
(06:08):
opponents are trying to bait him in the fights? And
when black eye players get unsportsmanlike penalties, how is it
handled by the staff? Does Ryan Day sit down and
have a conversation with Smith. I just don't want the
kid to get kicked out an important game down the road.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
That's from Nate.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Okay, all right, Nate.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
One of my good friends, Nate Sally's name is Nate
fort Lauderdale. Nate, you're overreacting. He's not going to get
kicked out the game ever. It's not going to happen,
and you want you He's two hundred and thirty pounds
and people were trying to go toe to toe.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
With him, so he's got to hold his own.
Speaker 4 (06:44):
Most of those penalties are like offsetting anyway, and you kind.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
Of want to see that man.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
Plus he might be a little bit frustrated, of course,
they're trying to bait him, but I mean, he's just
being physical, man, and people don't like when you're two thirteen,
they feel picked on, and so the DB's messing around,
But it's nothing that's alarmed.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Did you hear what Coach Day said about him?
Speaker 4 (07:05):
Every time he's asked, he's the best receiver.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
There's no comparison to him. He's the greatest ever.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
He's the best player in the country, has no doubt
about it. And he got a first rounder and Carnell
Tate there and he's like, there's not it's not even close.
So he's letting you know that Jeremiah can pretty much
do what he wants.
Speaker 7 (07:21):
Well, here's how you know if they're trying to bait him.
If the guy gets in the fight with isn't a starter.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Oh yeah, yeah, that's like.
Speaker 7 (07:29):
The guy in basketball comes.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
Thought.
Speaker 6 (07:33):
I thought Jeremiah's best answer though, was the final touchdown
against the same guys, the same guy that they were
doing grabbing face mask with and everything else. And and
I love the stare down. It's all over gone with.
Now they're not going to call taunting on that. But
if that ain't taunting, I have ever seen that man.
Speaker 7 (07:50):
That was awesome.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
It was awesome.
Speaker 5 (07:52):
It was a staredown.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
Here's a thing when somebody throws you the way, like
they showed this multiple They said, Jeremiah got into a
little scuff with the dB. That one't scuffed once Jeremiah
got his hands on him. There is nothing that the
DV can do in the way, just threw them out
the way. At the end, when you line up, like
you said, in a one on one situation, at that
point you're nervous, like you know, you can't beat the guy,
and then you get scored on.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
It's just a repman.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
So there's no conversation when he comes to the sideline
with coach Day or Coach Hartline like hey, watch yourself
or careful.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
Yeah, I mean, you know, if it becomes a problem.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Problem.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
Notice that Nate's the only person to asked the question.
Nobody else even notices what's going on.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Nobody's talking about.
Speaker 6 (08:34):
The one thing that might happen is a conversation with
our coaching staff, with the officials.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Pregame, hey, these guys are they're going after our There are.
Speaker 6 (08:43):
Those meetings that you have with the officials and say, hey,
by the way, this is one of the things we've experienced,
and we just want you to keep your eyes on
it to make sure you don't flag him for a
secondary thing that he didn't start.
Speaker 5 (08:54):
Yeah, you know, kind of a thing. He is being
baited NonStop.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
It's one of those things.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
We'll probably talk to the officials just like they do
when they talk about special plays they want to run
or maybe a special team's play, and hey, we're going
to do this, so be aware of it.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Another one, what did you guys think of Brett Beilama
saying he could have gone no huddle offense earlier or
should have gone no huddle offense earlier because Ohio State,
I'll say, couldn't handle it. I cleaned that up what
Brett Beelama actually said.
Speaker 4 (09:24):
And he could have He could have eaten a salad
instead of having the wings, but he decided to eat
the wings and everything else in the dang on Delhi, right,
and that's why he looks the way that he looks.
Speaker 3 (09:34):
Right. We could have would have should have you.
Speaker 7 (09:36):
Know what I'm saying?
Speaker 3 (09:37):
Yes, what are we talking about? You could have done well?
If you could have done it, you should have did it.
Speaker 6 (09:41):
Why not just stand up in front of your your
press and your fans and say I'm an idiot because.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
That's it basically what he said.
Speaker 6 (09:48):
I mean, if he really believed that that was going
to be the difference in the game, you wouldn't have
done it from the get go.
Speaker 7 (09:54):
That was a giant d deflection. Yeah deflection.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Yeah, I will say this.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
I saw a clip of their quarterback Altmeyer, Luke Altmeyer
extremely complimentary of the Ohio State defense. You know, he
was talking about their turnovers and they had three terms.
He can't do that against against anybody and expect to win.
And he goes, but he goes, guys, they're number one
for a reason, like you know, and he referenced his interception.
(10:22):
You know, most teams I can get away with that throw,
but you know, they had a guy get a hand
on it. It gets deflected that that's why they're as
good as they are. So he at least I thought
what I saw of his press conference, I thought handled he.
Speaker 7 (10:36):
Had some of the best facial expressions I've ever seen.
He's sitting on TV the way he's thinking another one
had a bad route.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 6 (10:50):
His numbers coming into the game. We talked about it.
We're pretty terrific. I mean he had zero interceptions, twelve
touchdown passes on the season, and in his last eleven
home game starts twenty seven touchdowns.
Speaker 5 (11:02):
Yeah wow, and what do we do? We turn them over?
Speaker 3 (11:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Did you guys think Davis Nigmnosen got away with a
couple of passing interference calls? They're their stadium went crazy.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
A couple of times.
Speaker 4 (11:15):
I think it on It just went both ways. I mean,
it's a dB, So some of them you're gonna be.
They're blatant, and you can call other ones you can.
I mean, if it's somebody that's gonna get flagged, is
going to be him. So when he gets away with one,
so to speak, it's probably not as egregious as you
would think because those guys are watching and they're telling
the officials this guy is holding and doing these different things.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
But I thought he actually played a pretty decent game.
Speaker 6 (11:39):
It's amazing to have a receiver defendive defensive back. Then, Yeah,
you are stepping up, my friend.
Speaker 7 (11:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (11:45):
I mean, anytime that they make you practice with oven
mints on, you've paid your price, you know, because they
said they said he had oven mitts. So when in
practice sometimes or whatever it may be. So I'm sure
he's paid his price.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
The one thing I noticed on the deep one early
in the game that they were upset about and he
was he did have his hands on him. I mentioned
this Bill to Jeff on the post game is like
last year, most of the time he would get those
calls and he would never turn around and look at
the ball.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
He would just be holding and the ball would fall.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
He this year is turning and looking, and I think
you're probably less likely to get flagged for the hold
if you're locating the football.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
Welcome to the NFL.
Speaker 4 (12:26):
Having an NFL coach that just teaching NFL techniques and
to help you get away with not getting passing and
fingers calls, because yeah, and.
Speaker 7 (12:35):
Let's face there's two positions where you can get flagged
every time if the officials call him really tight offensive
line and also in the secondary for sure.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
Yeah, Buck guys are taking on Wisconsin on Saturday. I've
got a bunch more tweets that we'll get to more
of the conversation. Also, Bill coming up with No. Nine
Enemy back after this now box line on six to
ten WTV.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
Trophy. Good.
Speaker 7 (13:06):
I am.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
Back.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
We are on Bucks line Matt McCoy with Jeff Logan,
Roy Hall, and Bill Connley.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
Bill warming up in the bullpen.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
About ten minutes from now, you'll have no thine enemy
from about the Wisconsin Badgers. The game is at three
point thirty. It's on Channel ten. We will have our
best Buckeye coverage pregame show starting at one o'clock, so
we'll tune us in. We'll get you ready for the game.
Another one that I got an email and you mentioned
(13:35):
Carnell Tait a moment ago, Roy Carnell Tate has underrated
Jeremiah Smith. Smith gets all the hype deservedly so, but
it seems like Tate has become more of a go
to guy for Julian saying as well, is there enough
nil money to convince Tate to run it back and
play with Smith again next year?
Speaker 4 (13:53):
Nope, no question no, because Carnell will have time to
shine when he gets drafted in the NFL.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
And that's it. Like I'm not because.
Speaker 4 (14:05):
Carnell's thinking like yeah, like Jeremiah is good, But when
he's sitting there listening to people say that Jeremiah is
that much better than him, the competitive side is like, yeah,
that's my brother, but like we are two different receivers, like,
but we can still do the same thing, you know
what I mean. In his mind, he's like, the only
reason I didn't shine last year was because of Mecca
was still here, you know. So he was kind of
(14:26):
the unsung guy last year. But you could see what
Carnell is doing, like there's no reason to come back
for two and a half million or two million or
whatever that number is. That what he would get pitched
when he's about to go be a top probably right
around seventeen eighteen. Of what they're projecting right now, it's
about what thirty million, Like no thanks out of here.
Speaker 7 (14:46):
Yeah, And it is the other part of it. Look
at the success of how state receivers are having in
the NF.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
Now he's got to be looking at Ata and go,
that could be me next year.
Speaker 3 (14:56):
And why what is it about? See, here's a deal.
I would imagine this is a nice who was his name?
Speaker 2 (15:04):
I don't have a name on that one, all right, cool?
Speaker 3 (15:06):
So I could destroy him right now. I'm just I'm
not going to death. But it's just about.
Speaker 4 (15:10):
Something about grown people who are fans and you're like
running back.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
You wouldn't do that in your profession. This dude got
an opportunity to go make thirty million dollars. Why would he.
Speaker 8 (15:21):
Get forgetting about the money? I forget what it's the
whole thing. I don't want a promotion, Yeah, like what
are we doing? Like, no, you lifelong dream?
Speaker 4 (15:31):
No, it's not a dream of No, it's not not
when thirty it's a lifelong dream to make thirty million.
No one wakes up like I want to play for
Ohio State and win a national title.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
That is my dream. No, my dream is to go
to the NFL.
Speaker 4 (15:44):
And if along the way I happen to win a
national title at Ohio State and play at Ohio State,
that's awesome.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
But the dream is always you.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
Start at the top, like I want to go here
specifically now, Like there's no way thirty million, come back
for two and maybe get hurt and be drew aller.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
No, thank you, no, thank you. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (16:03):
And you may not like hearing this folks out there,
but you know you want the Ohio State guy that's
gonna sing Carmen Ohio as he takes his uh you know,
morning constitution. They don't care about that anymore. There's more
to it is there a room. What about Brandon in us?
Has he been forgotten in this whole thing? He's got
eleven catches, no touchdowns.
Speaker 4 (16:25):
He's number he's number four to three, he's number three, four,
number five.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
Inner I mean because of the tight ends, he's probably
further down the chain, number four.
Speaker 4 (16:34):
Okay, So look in this offense, the number three receiver
is not gonna get too many catches.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
He's gonna have his games.
Speaker 4 (16:41):
Well he has one or two, which I think is
why they're honoring him as a captain and allowing him
to catch punts. Hey man, go make a play on
special teams. But everybody has a role to play. That's
a guy that's hoping that Carnelle gets out of here
and he's able to step up and be the number
two guy next year. Well that's, you know, yet to
be determined. But Brandon, don't think he's forgotten about. It's
(17:01):
just we got tight ends. It's making plays and it's
a good distribution across the board. We got two receivers
that are a's and then we got a running game
that we're trying to make sure we figure out both.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
I don't know if he's gonna be banged up or
not in this next game.
Speaker 4 (17:15):
And then you got the tight end that we brought
in for Purdue who had forty plus catches last year.
So it's not enough to go around specifically the way
that we're running offense. We've talked about possessions before, so
you know, Brandon's just got to set it out right now.
Speaker 3 (17:27):
Take those eleven catches.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Second slowest tempo team in the country.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
I would have never thought that.
Speaker 3 (17:34):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
You is the slowest, and Ohio State second.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
I love it. We don't have to rush. We know it.
We're so efficient, like we just get out there and
do it.
Speaker 4 (17:44):
You know, Coach Day said, we take what the defense
gives us, but not in a way that's just super conservative.
If you play us, man, we're gonna beat you over
the top. If you want to keep everything in the front,
we'll drive it down ten twelve, thirteen play drives and
then our defense is shutting you down. It's just demoralizing
up to Illinois and just made them just look bad.
Speaker 7 (18:02):
Also advantage of now the helmet, Oh yeah, you can communication, coach,
you can look and see boom. That's what they're going
to be and that's what we want to do.
Speaker 5 (18:11):
Yeah, it's amazing.
Speaker 6 (18:12):
Going three or four years ago, Matt, we were talking
about how frustrated we were that other teams were trying
to shorten the game against us and we.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
Had to go up tempo all the time.
Speaker 6 (18:22):
And now we have just the rule change, the helmet
communication has just totally flipped the switch for Ohio State.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
That and also the defense, like he's playing Ryanda's playing
complimentary football. Okay, we'll play it. You try to move
on our defense.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
I'm telling you the.
Speaker 4 (18:37):
NFL, you got an offensive coordinator who who's who spent
just as much time coaching in college as he did
in the NFL. You got Matt Patricia's a defensive coordinator,
and you're preparing these guys for the next level. They
are like in the NFL the possessions you only get
a certain amount. So they're like, hey, we're going to
just be as efficient as we possibly can.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
And that's what they're doing right now. Like I love
our offense is balanced.
Speaker 4 (19:00):
It feels good like and they can't stop us and
we can stop them, So it makes perfect sense.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
The other thing is in today's day and age, where
you're playing sixteen seventeen games, to win a national title.
Fewer plays is like if you as opposed to eighty
plays a game, when you're doing sixty plays a game,
it's like you're cutting two games off of the season
from acount from the physicality, your body freshness standpoint. We're
hitting the bottom of the hour. That means Bill is
(19:27):
coming up and he promises some food information about Wisconsin.
Speaker 7 (19:32):
Royce food truck is wheeling down the road.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
All right, I go, Baby, know thine enemy on the
Wisconsin Badgers. After this on six to ten wtv N,
Welcome back to box Line Matt McCoy with Bill Conley,
Jeff Logan and Roy Hall. Don't forget best Buck Eye
coverage pregame show one o'clock on Saturday, as the Buckeyes
get ready to play a three thirty games CBS. We'll
have the coverage, so it'll be on Channel ten as
(19:56):
the buck Eyes play at Wisconsin. The time has come
or our weekly venture into the Ohio state opponent.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
No thine enemy.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
This week it is the Wisconsin Badgers. Bill Conley, no
thine enemy.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
Take it away.
Speaker 7 (20:09):
Well, I think you guys probably think you know a
lot about this Wisconsin. Okay, Well, let me tell you
some things not know. It's one of the few states
that was named after a river. Yes, an Indian word,
the river running through A red place is the name,
but it means That's what Wisconsin means. Yes, a red place,
(20:33):
a red place.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
That's why their colors are red. I have no idea.
I'm just making that up.
Speaker 7 (20:38):
The first game was eighteen ninety they beat in their
first game of college football. They played Whitewater, Okay, beat
them one hundred and six to nothing. Wow, that's the
good news. That bad news. They lost the next three
in Minnesota beat them sixty three to nothing. So anyway,
(20:59):
not bad. Start fourteen Big Ten championships, you know, I
mean national championships Goose Egg really goose Egg?
Speaker 3 (21:08):
Correct?
Speaker 7 (21:09):
Only two Heisman Trophy winners, Ron Dane Yes and the
great Alan alan Amichi, whose cousin was a great actor.
DONOMICI is that? Yes, that's what I thought. Had no idea.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
I thought you were serious.
Speaker 7 (21:37):
Beat you great running back No non for getting the
touchdown for the Baltimore Colts when they beat the New
York Giants for the NFL Championship. Wasn't much of run
about six yards, but that wanted an overtime the.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Great for a long time that was considered. It was
I can't remember what year it is, but the greatest
NFF all time. I was a kid that you know,
learned the history of the NFL.
Speaker 7 (22:02):
Yes, and then they named badgers. Doesn't come from animal, No,
it was a name for the European northern European prospectors,
specifically lead miners who came to this country because like
a badger, they would dig holes and they really lived
(22:24):
outside in man made caves. They dig out the ground
and stuff like that, because the winners get so bad
in Wisconsin. But all these miners came over, they call
them badgers. After that, there you go, how about that? All?
Speaker 3 (22:38):
Right?
Speaker 7 (22:39):
Now, eighteen ninety they were actually using live badgers, live
badgers as the mascot and the players who came around.
But they started scratching them, yeah, and biting them.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
Probably bad idea.
Speaker 7 (22:55):
They tried it again later in nineteen forty, bad idea.
So now they came up with Bucky Badger, Yes, a
fake one, all right. Colors are cardinal and white. Why
cardinal and white? I have no idea. The fight song
on Wisconsin kind of historical. Here on Wisconsin was the
charge that a Lieutenant General MacArthur Arthur MacArthur at the
(23:22):
battle Arthur MacArthur, Arthur MacArthur at the Battle of Missionary
Ridge by Chattanooga, Tennessee. It's the boss. He picks up
the flag. Flagman got killed. He pays on Wisconsin at
nineteen years old. And later on, of course he had
a son, Douglas MacArthur.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
About the history teacher and Bill meet.
Speaker 7 (23:49):
You were right, but I'll tell you why MacArthur. All right, Okay, Now, rivals,
they got Minnesota Paul Bunyan's acts, all right, and Iowa
the Heartland Trophy, Doud Trophy. All right, that's the two
big rivals. Some great players have played for Wisconsin. How
about l Roy Crazy Legs Hirsh played in the nineteen forties. Sure,
(24:13):
now he was called crazy. Most of these guys get
their games from sports writers.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
Okay.
Speaker 7 (24:18):
And he ran funny because he ran with one foot
out to the side and so he kind of wobbled
when he ran.
Speaker 3 (24:24):
But he was fast.
Speaker 7 (24:25):
That's Crazy Crazy Legs Hirsh.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
All right.
Speaker 4 (24:28):

half hours away is Butt's Corner. So you got all options,
all kinds of options, some of the great cities in

facial expressions. I literally have a friend.

Speaker 6 (33:08):
Regular guy, god fearing, regular guy, owns his own business,
highly successful.
Speaker 5 (33:16):
He dials in for this show.
Speaker 7 (33:21):
This is the sposor.
Speaker 6 (33:23):
This is the only part that he listens to, because
he says, if I turn it on at seven thirty, is.
Speaker 3 (33:27):
That good enough?
Speaker 7 (33:28):
There you go, Glenn, we did it for you.
Speaker 1 (33:30):
Yeah, there you go, pound Beaver Butts corner. You know
all about him and Banger. That's right, you outdid yourself again, coach.
Thanks very much, know that enemy. We'll get to some
final emails and conversation after this on bucks Line on
six NLTVN buckeye'es Badger's three point thirty on Channel ten
(33:53):
on Saturday, Join us where we have the best block
eye coverage pregame show starting at one o'clock. We'll take
you right up the kickoff. It's Bucks Line Matt McCoy
with Bill Conley, Jeff Logan, and Roy Hall. I'll get
to a couple of other emails. I'm shortening this one.
This is from Randy and Sandusky about the James Franklin situation.
(34:14):
But he mentions that Ryan Day had the tough conversation
with Kyle McCord that led to him being transferring and
went out and got a better quarterback that I'm going
to have competition for you, and Randy is basically surmising,
asking is that the downfall of James Franklin that he
(34:35):
just was married to his quarterbacks and stayed with him,
and maybe he should have made some changes and just
wondering if Ryan Day had the foresight, Hey, this is
a really good quarterback, but you know, we need competition
for him.
Speaker 2 (34:47):
I have no idea.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
I don't know what the inner workings are, but it
is a good point. You can make the argument that
James Franklin always chose the wrong quarterback.
Speaker 5 (34:54):
Well, it's not Drew Hour's fault. He wasn't there eleven years.
Speaker 3 (34:58):
James. It seems like.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
It, But I mean he took Sean Clifford will Levis
transfers and goes to Kentucky and is the first round
draft choice. Bo Perbula is now at Missouri excelling Excelling.
Speaker 6 (35:10):
Yeah, And I think the problem with Penn State football
is that just have not been able to recruit that
kind of quarterback and have the speed on the outside
to be able to be competitive with the best programs
in the Big Ten or in the country. I mean,
you can't be four and twenty one or whatever his
number is against ranked opponents and have really good talent.
(35:31):
You can't suck that much as a coach. You got
to have some bad players in there too.
Speaker 4 (35:36):
I think the biggest thing is this is shifting to
be like an NFL situation like if you don't have
a good quarter I mean it's always been that way,
but now it's more prominent where if you don't have
a quarterback, you can't compete. I mean Signetti even now,
like they get the Mendozo, Yeah his name is he
got a quarterback. Now they're saying that he's like the
number two guy or number three gallon mel Kiper's big
board now and you're like, really a Indiana Yeah, but
(35:58):
if you have a guy that can control the offense, man,
like you know, Drew Aller's gone and so is James Frank.
Speaker 6 (36:03):
And when over when over two thirds of the starting
quarterbacks this season came from transfers. That tells you everybody's
out there looking for that quick fix.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (36:11):
Yeah, if you're a really good quarterback, you hear from
your parents here from the France, you should be starting. Hey,
I'll just go to the portal.
Speaker 2 (36:17):
Yeah, this one's from Dale.
Speaker 1 (36:19):
Helped me understand why the officials kept stopping Ohio State
from playing at a faster tempo. There were several times
where they were ready to snap the ball and the
reps wouldn't let them. It cost to Ohio State some
timeouts and seemed to anger Ryan Day. That had to
do with substitutions, right, bills, So.
Speaker 7 (36:34):
You have to give the other team chance to get personnel.
Speaker 2 (36:36):
When you sub.
Speaker 1 (36:37):
Then Illinois has the right to sub, and they're just
taking advantage of the rule, right they're subbing slowly to
keep Ohio State from snapping the ball.
Speaker 7 (36:46):
And you get a delay a game, either take a
delay or you spend a time out exactly.
Speaker 5 (36:51):
And you could you could take.
Speaker 6 (36:52):
A team and wash every one of their timeouts in
the first quarter exactly by just doing that intentionally.
Speaker 5 (36:57):
And that's why that rule has to change.
Speaker 1 (36:58):
Yeah, that's Jeff Logan, Roy Hall, Bill Conley.
Speaker 2 (37:02):
Thanks so much.
Speaker 1 (37:02):
We're back with you one o'clock Saturday. The best Buckeye
coverage pregame show game is at three three again it's

later start, but we will talk to you before the game.
